[12:07] <Techno_2> Can I apt get it?
[12:07] <mwe> Techno_2: yes
[12:07] <mwe> Techno_2: sudo apt-get install libncurses5-dev
[12:07] <dauoalagio> can anyone explain to me on how to install flash player?
[12:07] <EmxBA> hey guys
[12:08] <EmxBA> i gotta go
[12:08] <Techno_2> Bye EmxBA :)
[12:08] <EmxBA> goodbye
[12:08] <MetaMorfoziS> okay, good night everybody. kshutdown @ 20min.)
[12:08] <dauoalagio> earthen are you there?
[12:09] <Techno_2> mwe: Yay, I've got the menu up. Am I right in thinking that I now go through all of these and select my hardware?
[12:09] <issaker> sup all
[12:09] <issaker> i just installed ubuntu and now my xp wont boot
[12:09] <issaker> can someone help me with this?
[12:09] <dauoalagio> that sucks
[12:09] <dauoalagio> im a noob too
[12:09] <mwe> Techno_2: go to power management and enable suspend2
[12:09] <Hexidigital_> issaker:: did you have dynamic discs on xp?
[12:09] <issaker> dymanic discs?
[12:10] <mwe> Techno_2: set default resume partition to that of your swap partition
[12:10] <issaker> hexidigital, what are those?
[12:10] <Hexidigital_> issaker:: it's a way of allocating the discs in XP... that would stop Ubuntu from finding the boot record, but if you didnt know what it was, you probably didn't have it enabled
[12:11] <issaker> lemme describe my situation a little bit
[12:11] <Hexidigital_> ok
[12:11] <zanrek> irc.auran.com
[12:12] <Abo> anyone knows about a tool similar to "Google Desktop" for ubuntu?
[12:12] <issaker> i just installed ubuntu on a seperate partition, on the same HD as my xp installation, but seperate partition
[12:12] <Hexidigital_> issaker:: did you resize the partition?
[12:12] <issaker> both xp and ubuntu's partition are primary, with ubuntu's swapspace as a logical
[12:12] <crazy_penguin> good night, pleasent dreams!
[12:12] <shannon> where might I find more documentation on what 'iwlist power' is?
[12:13] <mwe> shannon: man iwlist
[12:13] <mwe> shannon: type that in a terminal
[12:13] <issaker> i split my HD into 2 partitions when i install xp pro, so 100 gig is for xp pro, and 100 gig is unallocated
[12:13] <Techno_2> mwe: Done. I put /dev/hdc6 (My swap parition)
[12:13] <shannon> mwe: I looked, it says very little about it
[12:13] <Hexidigital_> shannon:: in terminal, man iwlist power
[12:13] <Mortal`> How do I manually sync the clock?
[12:13] <H080J03> where is finbar1 ?
[12:13] <mwe> Techno_2: good. now it's time to compile the kernel.
[12:13] <issaker> then in the 100 unallocated gig, i furthur allocated 20 gig for ubunto, as primary, and another 20 as ubuntu's swap space
[12:13] <Techno_2> mwe: That was easy
[12:14] <shannon> Hexidigital_: anything else?
[12:14] <Mysta_> shannon: try info iwlist
[12:14] <mwe> Techno_2: then you'll boot it and see if everything works. if not you'll have to finetune things in menuconfig
[12:14] <firestorm> If I set a folder to chmod 4777 isnt any directory in the folder creater by a user suppose to assume the permission/ownership of the main folder or am I reading the man page wrong
[12:14] <issaker> installed grub
[12:14] <Hexidigital_> shannon:: sorry, that's all i know when looking for docs, besides google
[12:14] <shannon> Mysta_: okay -- I'll look into it
[12:14] <Hexidigital_> issaker:: grub installed to MBR?
[12:14] <issaker> yah
[12:14] <Techno_2> How do you compiel the kernel?
[12:14] <mwe> Techno_2: yes. you'll probably want to finetune menuconfig later if it works anyway and get rid of all the crap you don't need
[12:14] <issaker> i can choose between ubuntu and xp
[12:15] <mwe> Techno_2: exit and save the config
[12:15] <Techno_2> Yeap :)
[12:15] <issaker> when i select xp, it runs, i see the logo and the loading bar, but it will auto-restart
[12:15] <glick> whoooot dapper rc1 looks hawt!
[12:15] <issaker> same goes for safe mode
[12:15] <Techno_2> That's weird :S
[12:15] <mwe> Techno_2: then sudo make && sudo make menuconfig. while it's compiling read the suspend2 docs on what you need to add to menu.lst
[12:15] <Hexidigital_> issaker:: not sure if you'd really need a 20GB swap partition, but try this
[12:15] <Hexidigital_> ubotu:: tell issaker about dualboot
[12:15] <shannon> info says the same thing -- perhaps I will just ask here -- is there any danger of a crash or something if I enable it?
[12:15] <Mysta_> i cant wait to get my laptop to install dapper
[12:15] <Techno_2> resume2=/dev/blahhh
[12:16] <glick> im running kubuntu breezy right now gawd i cant stand it
[12:16] <mwe> Techno_2: what about it?
[12:16] <glick> ubuntu ownz kubuntu
[12:16] <Hexidigital_> issaker:: did you get that pm from ubotu ?
[12:16] <issaker> yup
[12:16] <Techno_2> That's what you have to add I believe
[12:16] <Hexidigital_> issaker:: that sounds like a windows error to me, now
[12:16] <firestorm> the new graphics in dapper are sleek glick
[12:16] <glick> firestorm: yeah i saw
[12:16] <Hexidigital_> issaker:: if you CAN boot into windows, but it auto restarts, F8 into safe mode
[12:16] <issaker> so where would i go to fix it?
[12:16] <glick> im downloading the iso right now
[12:16] <mwe> Techno_2: yes. but blahhh should be more specific :)
[12:16] <Mysta_> issaker: you don't get a single error message?
[12:17] <mwe> Techno_2: not just the device
[12:17] <issaker> nope
[12:17] <issaker> safemode auto restarts too
[12:17] <Hexidigital_> issaker:: windows is set (by default) to restart on fatal errors
[12:17] <mwe> Techno_2: you need to create a file and stuff. the readme says what you need
[12:17] <Techno_2> mwe: Ah ok :)  Best to check the docs
[12:17] <issaker> oh..darn...
[12:17] <mwe> Techno_2: but I think you need to boot the suspend2 enabled kernel first
[12:17] <glick> firestorm: are you running RC 1?
[12:17] <mwe> Techno_2: before it will work or it will complain
[12:18] <firestorm> glick, on a machine in the other room vnc into it right now
[12:18] <mwe> Techno_2: are you doing the sudo make && sudo make modules_install ?
[12:18] <Hexidigital_> issaker:: if that's the case, and you need to reinstall windows, you should install that first, then install ubuntu again... (make sure you install XP SP2 before installing ubuntu, as it will do bad things, in my experience)
[12:18] <glick> oh you running the server edition?
[12:18] <mwe> Techno_2: or without sudo if you're root already
[12:18] <issaker> is it possible just fix MBR and be done with it?
[12:18] <glick> i dont see how vista or XP can compete with ubuntu
[12:19] <rab> hey, what file holds the computers static/DHCP ip's and gateways
[12:19] <jvai> lol
[12:19] <Mysta_> this server edition stuff is confusing me ??
[12:19] <firestorm> nah theres a remote desktop built in not sure if its new or not
[12:19] <Hexidigital_> issaker:: that will only update the MBR, not fix your booting problem
[12:19] <issaker> i see
[12:19] <Mortal`> How do I manually synchronize the time using NNTP?
[12:19] <Techno_2> mwe: Ah darn, I forgot to enabel some options, I'll have to redo menuconfig
[12:19] <Hexidigital_> Mysta_:: what's the problem?
[12:19] <kbrooks> glick: *linux in general*: Windows OVERWRITES the MBR and puts ITS OWN bootloader on it
[12:19] <glick> i think they should box ubuntu and sell it in stores for $299
[12:19] <issaker> why would installation on a seperate partition affect xp anyways? i dont understand
[12:19] <glick> then people would buy it
[12:19] <kbrooks> glick: no, they shouldnt
[12:19] <tOMky> I need to disable usb2.0 functionality, how can I do it?
[12:19] <firestorm> If I set a folder to chmod 4777 isnt any directory in the folder creater by a user suppose to assume the permission/ownership of the main folder or am I reading the man page wrong
[12:19] <kbrooks> glick: lower price
[12:19] <glick> kbrooks: yeah they should, it should still be freely available online
[12:20] <kbrooks> $100 is fine
[12:20] <mwe> Techno_2: what options?
[12:20] <Mysta_> Hexidigital_: im looking for details (documents) on whats installed vs. a standard install
[12:20] <Hexidigital_> glick:: perhaps you should go to the windows channel, if you are in to SELLING software
[12:20] <gnomefreak> glick: that would defeat the purpose of ubuntu
[12:20] <kbrooks> $50 is even better
[12:20] <mwe> Techno_2: the ubuntu options are all enabled
[12:20] <kbrooks> Hexidigital_: please.
[12:20] <kbrooks> Hexidigital_: shhh/
[12:20] <glick> Hexidigital_: there is nothing wrong with selling software
[12:20] <glick> it would still be open and freely available for download
[12:20] <glick> but most people have a thing with if its free it must be no good
[12:20] <Mysta_> for a cost?
[12:20] <Hexidigital_> kbrooks:: :)
[12:20] <Techno_2> mwe: The documentation for suspend2 tells me to enable several options that I didn't
[12:21] <Hexidigital_> glick:: i concur
[12:21] <Mysta_> the internet is free? is that good? hehehe
[12:21] <Hexidigital_> glick:: i did a research paper about that in college
[12:21] <mwe> Techno_2: oh
[12:21] <firestorm> when is the internet free?
[12:21] <kbrooks> Mysta_: no, its not free
[12:21] <dauoalagio> whats a good music program for gnome>
[12:21] <dauoalagio> ?
[12:21] <Mysta_> its free for me
[12:21] <Mortal`> Mysta_, Internet is free, as in free* ;)
[12:21] <mwe> Techno_2: yeah make sure those are enabled
[12:21] <Mysta_> lol
[12:21] <Hexidigital_> Mysta_:: internet is not free... you pay your ISP
[12:21] <Techno_2> mwe: Ok I didn't actually need them
[12:21] <Mysta_> i dont pay a dime actually
[12:21] <kbrooks> Mortal`: * free as in speech
[12:21] <Techno_2> Oh well, they might be useful (Sorry for the two lined writing)
[12:21] <mwe> Techno_2: now cd /usr/src/linux and make && make modules_install then
[12:22] <firestorm> If your at college look at your bill you pay a technology fee
[12:22] <Hexidigital_> Mortal`:: was that implying *With purchase of connection from ISP?
[12:22] <kbrooks> hmm
[12:22] <Mortal`> Hexidigital_, yes :)
[12:22] <Hexidigital_> :)
[12:22] <kbrooks> i feell like reinstalling fedora, over ubuntu. :-)
[12:22] <Techno_2> mwe: Not sudo make?
[12:22] <patch> know somebody where can I find MBrola ?
[12:22] <Mysta_> well technically you aren't paying for the internet, you're paying for a connection to the internet
[12:22] <mwe> Techno_2: try updating menu.lst in the meantime. you need to create a brand new entry
[12:22] <mwe> Techno_2: you don't need sudo
[12:22] <Mortal`> kbrooks, that's not :-), thats )-: ;)
[12:23] <mwe> Techno_2: not if youre root
[12:23] <mwe> Techno_2: just type make && make modules_install
[12:23] <Techno_2> mwe; Ah ok, I see the fucntion of sudo now
[12:23] <kbrooks> then again, i dont think i will reinstall.
[12:23] <mwe> yeah
[12:23] <Hexidigital_> Mysta_:: www.apache.org
[12:23] <glick> Hexidigital_: so if your agreeing with me why are you telling me to go to the windows channel?
[12:24] <Hexidigital_> glick:: it was a joke :)
[12:24] <kbrooks> glick; BAD JOKE
[12:24] <cvasilak> hello there, what is the name of the package for the nvidia-kernel smp version (dapper drake)
[12:24] <Hexidigital_> yes, i guess it was a bad one :)
[12:24] <Mysta_> Hexidigital_: what about apache?
[12:24] <kbrooks> ?
[12:24] <Hexidigital_> Mysta_:: that has all the doc for apache (you were looking for doc right?)
[12:24] <kurt> is there any xgl guide that works floating about on the internet?
[12:24] <gnomefreak> cvasilak: try #ubuntu+1 please for dapper
[12:24] <gnomefreak> kurt: #ubuntu-xgl
[12:25] <Mysta_> Hexidigital_: oh no im sorry, im trying to figure out what the diff is between a regular install of ubuntu or a server install
[12:25] <mwe> Techno_2: you can copy paste an existing entry in menu.lst. just change the image name. you'll probably call the image vmlinuz-2.6.16.18
[12:25] <Hexidigital_> Mysta_:: server will not install GUI by default
[12:25] <CaptainMorgan> anyone know how I can thunderbird to display IN the screen? right now, it's width is exceeding my screen's width and there's no up/down, left/right arrows to view the missing content
[12:25] <Mysta_> Hexidigital_: im guessing gnome and all that sfuff
[12:25] <CaptainMorgan> *get
[12:25] <gnomefreak> Mysta_: server installs no gui most things are for running a server
[12:25] <Mysta_> Hexidigital_: is that it?
[12:25] <Hexidigital_> Mysta_:: you are better off with default, than installing what you need
[12:25] <Hexidigital_> Mysta_:: yes
[12:25] <NickGarvey> what does the file /boot/boot do?
[12:25] <mcphail> kurt: got xgl working today. Very pleased with myself :)
[12:26] <NickGarvey> oh nevermind I forgot, its a recursive link haha
[12:26] <NickGarvey> I'm in windows and its flipping out
[12:26] <issaker> aye
[12:26] <issaker> the dualbooting guide doesnt help
[12:26] <Mysta_> gnomefreak and Hexidigital_: does that go for lets say vmware server? should i do a standard install?
[12:26] <issaker> i didnt resize anything
[12:26] <magikfingerz> Hi everybody! How are you in this EXCELLENT day...? :)
[12:26] <gnomefreak> vmware is not installed under any ubunut install
[12:26] <Hexidigital_> Mysta_:: yes, standard
[12:26] <mcphail> kurt: http://wiki.ubuntu.com/XglHowto is a decent link
[12:26] <glick> i think the gnome people have the right idea on what a desktop should be all about
[12:27] <gnomefreak> ubuntu even
[12:27] <dauoalagio> whats a good music player?
[12:27] <glick> i disagree with the kde philosophy and i disagree with linux
[12:27] <glick> urrr
[12:27] <Mysta_> issaker: you split a 200 gig drive into 2 100 gig drives right?
[12:27] <glick> i mean i disagree with Linus
[12:27] <Mysta_> thanks gnomefreak and Hexidigital_
[12:27] <CaptainMorgan> ok
[12:27] <gnomefreak> glick: please take it to #ubuntu-offtopic
[12:27] <issaker> yah but i did that while installing xp pro mysta_
[12:27] <jvai> the default rythymnbox is good, but it's hard to sync radio tsations to it
[12:27] <Mysta_> issaker: ok
[12:27] <Hexidigital_> glick:: let me elaborate a bit.  i agree that not enough people use linux because of the "if it's free, it cannot be good" philosophy
[12:27] <magikfingerz> dauoalagio, well xmms is a good player, but if you want a good-looking player amarok shoud interest you too
[12:27] <firestorm> glick, the main thing I hate about kde is konqueror I hate all in one tools
[12:28] <mwe> Hexidigital_: ubuntu-offtopic
[12:28] <Hexidigital_> Mysta_:: no problem
[12:28] <Hexidigital_> sorry, mwe
[12:28] <CaptainMorgan> konq stinks
[12:28] <hanasaki> in kernel 2.6.x  is there a way to tell the kernel to dump all its cached stuff?
[12:28] <gnomefreak> dauoalagio: depends on what you are trying to play
[12:28] <glick> firestorm: yeah thats one of many things that urk me
[12:28] <issaker> mysta_ so that couldnt be a resize problem right?
[12:28] <Mysta_> issaker: i'd say no it isn't
[12:28] <logicirc> Is there a nice GUI I can use to manage the mounting of partitions?
[12:28] <glick> firestorm: you need to know like a bajillion options to get it working the way you want
[12:29] <gnomefreak> glick: firestorm and CaptainMorgan take it to #ubuntu-offtopic
[12:29] <issaker> so do you have any idea what it could be?
[12:29] <Hexidigital_> issaker:: windows IS booting... perhaps the ##windows channel can help you, but your dual boot config is correct
[12:29] <glick> gnomefreak: chill dude
[12:29] <Mysta_> issaker: im thinkin
[12:29] <Mysta_> ouch
[12:29] <CaptainMorgan> what?
[12:29] <CaptainMorgan> Im asking about tb
[12:29] <glick> whats your beef gnomefreak ?
[12:29] <CaptainMorgan> hardly offtopic
[12:29] <glick> were just talkin man?
[12:29] <glick> jesus
[12:29] <gnomefreak> glick: i asked you to take it to offtopic
[12:30] <gnomefreak> glick: this channel is a support channel not a general chat channel
[12:30] <glick> gnomefreak: gnome is hardly off topic in the ubuntu chanel
[12:30] <gnomefreak> glick: gnome and kde comparing is it has nothing to do with suppoort
[12:30] <glick> gnomefreak: no one besides you cares
[12:30] <gnomefreak> glick: i wouldnt fight this anymore just take it to #ubuntu-offtopic
[12:31] <kspath> glick: I care but I am new to the channel.
[12:31] <logicirc> Is there a GUI available for managing the mounting of partitions?
[12:31] <patch> Where can I get MBrola ?
[12:31] <slime> sorry for my english, I have a problem
[12:31] <Techno_2> What does it matter <_<
[12:31] <Mysta_> glick: i'd quit while ur ahead
[12:31] <Hexidigital_> slime:: what's the problem?
[12:31] <gnomefreak> abr glick ive asked you to move it to #offtopic
[12:31] <slime> can help me?
[12:31] <mwe> Techno_2: I need to go. when the kernel is compiled, cp /usr/src/linux/arch/i386/boot/bzImage /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.16.18 and update /boot/grub/menu.lst according to the README from suspend2. be aware that update-grub might mess up menu.lst when the ubuntu kernel (not the one your compiling) is updated. ask in the channel for how to avoid that. basically put the new entry in menu.lst out of the automatic section.
[12:31] <firestorm> How do I go about creating a directory so that anything inside of it (including new directorys) retain the permission of that folder
[12:31] <Techno_2> mwe: Thank you for all your helo
[12:31] <mwe> Techno_2: yw
[12:31] <slime> at start
[12:31] <Techno_2> help*
[12:32] <mwe> good luck
[12:32] <Hexidigital_> slime:: no need to press enter after every couple words
[12:32] <slime> enterprise management system!
[12:32] <CaptainMorgan> well, back to my original q; How do I alter tb so that my message *fits* within the screen... right now, it is wider than screens length and there is no left/right bar to see the missing portions of the message. looked in view and didnt' see anything that could help
[12:33] <CaptainMorgan> bug?
[12:33] <hanasaki> in kernel 2.6.x  is there a way to tell the kernel to dump all its cached stuff?
[12:33] <Mysta_> CaptainMorgan: whats tb?
[12:33] <slime> when I start it proces arerest the starting for more minute
[12:34] <CaptainMorgan> thundabird
[12:34] <Mysta_> oh lol

[12:34] <lun4tic> hi
[12:34] <lun4tic> dows anyone know how i can get the windows key on my keyboard sticky again like strg, alt and shift?
[12:34] <Mysta_> slime: so when you start arerest it takes a while to load?
[12:35] <CaptainMorgan> only the message is wider. the whole application fits within screen.. but not the message... weird
[12:35] <aLPHa_LeaK> lun4tic: pour coke over it ;)
[12:35] <CaptainMorgan> maybe I need to ask #thunderbird..
[12:35] <CaptainMorgan> nope.. only three folks there
[12:35] <CaptainMorgan> :(
[12:35] <rubberduck_sp> hi :)
[12:36] <aLPHa_LeaK> CaptainMorgan: maybe #mozilla or #firefox or something?
[12:36] <Hexidigital_> gotta go to work... see you guys
[12:36] <slime> after more minute the start proces continue and finish whith succes!
[12:36] <CaptainMorgan> #mozilla doesn't have nearly as many people..
[12:36] <aLPHa_LeaK> CaptainMorgan: try a mailing list or something
[12:36] <lun4tic> aLPHa_LeaK:  -.-
[12:36] <aLPHa_LeaK> lun4tic: i don't really get your question
[12:36] <Mysta_> slime: what is your native langauge?
[12:36] <slime> italiano...
[12:37] <lun4tic> the key curently is repeated and i can not bind it in any way
[12:37] <Mysta_> !it
[12:37] <ubotu> Vai su #ubuntu-it o su #kubuntu-it se vuoi parlare in italiano, in questo canale usiamo solo l'inglese. Grazie!
[12:37] <lun4tic> i i try it it says "windows+" and if i release the key it is as if i had nothing typed
[12:37] <logicirc> Is there a way to configure partition mount points via GUI?
[12:37] <rredd4> when I change screen resolution with breezy, (using 1600 x 1200 now), to 1024 x 768,  it just makes my screen display smaller (not full screen).  This is a new install, today, with breezy.  Not sure which video driver ubuntu selected.
[12:37] <slime> thenks my english is horrible!
[12:38] <Mysta_> slime: its cool i wish i knew italian, lol
[12:38] <Mysta_> rredd4: are you using an LCD monitor/
[12:38] <rredd4> yes
[12:38] <patch> Where can I get MBrola ?
[12:38] <rubberduck_sp> im using an apple 20 inch display, and it displays correctly lol
[12:39] <lun4tic> aLPHa_LeaK: the windows key normally should behave like any other meta key (alt, shift, strg) but it doesn't
[12:39] <rredd4> Mysta  yes
[12:39] <kbrooks> how do I backup a Linux installation?
[12:40] <logicirc> Is there a tool to configure partition mount points via GUI?
[12:40] <Silk> Howdy folks
[12:40] <aLPHa_LeaK> lun4tic: iirc its called meta4 or something
[12:40] <rubberduck_sp> logicirc, yes gpart in gnome
[12:40] <Tedd||> logicirc, you can try gpart
[12:40] <rredd4> Mysta  I believe this is NV
[12:40] <logicirc> ok will do
[12:40] <lun4tic> aLPHa_LeaK: i don't know if it depends on hardware but i want a normal windows key behaviour. i wanna have the windows "Super_L" key for key combinations
[12:40] <rubberduck_sp> Gparted
[12:40] <Silk> anyone good with sound problems?
[12:40] <Mysta_> rredd4: im not sure my problem was a lil diff than urs
[12:40] <rubberduck_sp> its called gparted, may be youve got to get it throug apt
[12:41] <LinuxJones> kbrooks, for a single machine or 100 ?
[12:41] <KaiL> hi all. I have a problem with gstreamer0.10-pitfdll - it just doesn't want to work (even as gst-inspect-0.10 lists it correctly). Any known solutions?
[12:41] <kbrooks> LinuxJones: lol, 1
[12:41] <rredd4> does apt-spy work with breezy
[12:41] <mcphail> lun4tic: have you bound it to any functions in your window manager?
[12:41] <Techno_2> How long does it take to recompile the kernel?
[12:41] <kbrooks> !info apt-spy
[12:41] <ubotu> apt-spy: (writes a sources.list file based on bandwidth tests), section universe/admin, is optional. Version: 3.1-13 (breezy), Packaged size: 27 kB, Installed size: 180 kB
[12:41] <LinuxJones> kbrooks, hit google up for mondoarchive
[12:42] <lun4tic> it is currently not cusomized so it has the standard kubuntu behaviour
[12:42] <kbrooks> LinuxJones: open source?
[12:42] <rredd4> kbrooks ty
[12:42] <LinuxJones> kbrooks, GPL all the way :)
[12:42] <Silk> Anyone know how to get audio working in Dapper Drake? Getting no sound out of any port
[12:42] <kbrooks> LinuxJones: application?
[12:42] <Silk> any totem, mplayer
[12:42] <Silk> dvd
[12:42] <kbrooks> LinuxJones: is it a program?
[12:42] <rubberduck_sp> Silk, i got itplaying with the mixer, headphone detection, etc... but this is a mac XD
[12:42] <mcphail> lun4tic: you haven't installed xgl/compiz?
[12:42] <lun4tic> in other KDE desktops (like on my debian/unstable) the windows key doesn't repeat but on that kubuntu desktop it does
[12:43] <LinuxJones> kbrooks, you ever need to install/push out upgrades to a number of machines check out system installation suite, it's pretty awesome :)
[12:43] <Jowi> Techno_2: depends on 1) your CPU. 2) how you set up the kernel and 3) number of modules. on my 1ghz machine it takes about 20minutes, with alot of modules removed and only what i need compiled in.
[12:43] <LinuxJones> kbrooks, yeah it's in the universe repo
[12:43] <lun4tic> mcphail: xgl is running but compiz is not
[12:43] <lun4tic> mcphail: is it a xgl problem?
[12:43] <kbrooks> LinuxJones: ok. i have fedora, so i'll look in there for mondoarchive.
[12:43] <Techno_2> Jowi: So with a reasonable CPU, a follow someone elses instructiosn setup, and uselss moduels installed it'll take hours :P
[12:44] <Jowi> Techno_2: after you've done it once, next times are very quick. 25% of total time roughly
[12:44] <Jowi> Techno_2: very hard to estimate :)
[12:44] <LinuxJones> kbrooks, here's a link to a LinuxJournal article >> http://www.linuxjournal.com/node/6808/print
[12:44] <mcphail> lun4tic: don't think so.  :D
[12:44] <kbrooks> hanoi: shush
[12:44] <kbrooks> .........
[12:44] <mcphail> lun4tic: could be...
[12:44] <LinuxJones> kbrooks, it's a bit old but works
[12:45] <rubberduck_sp> ....
[12:45] <kbrooks> gnomefreak: thhat was a bad person.
[12:45] <Techno_2> Jowi: How big is the kernel?
[12:45] <Silk> So any tips on how to get sound output going? I've check alsa-mixer nothing is muted, I've plugged headphones into every jack nothing soudn cards detecting right just never get any audio out...
[12:45] <Jowi> Techno_2: the hard part of compiling a kernel is to remove unwanted stuff. there are alot of info on the drivers to read through in the kernel setup (menuconfig/gconfig etc)
[12:45] <rubberduck_sp> there is a load of new libs with dapper, I had to download 1024 nes packages
[12:45] <tOMky> I need to disable usb2.0 functionality and get only 1.1, how can I do it?
[12:45] <rubberduck_sp> new packages*
[12:46] <Jowi> Techno_2: the source itself... erhm... around 40mb i think. the finished compiled product can be everything from almost nothing to several megabytes. it all depends.
[12:46] <lun4tic> hm... should have taken the laptop before someone has gone sleeping in that room... :D
[12:46] <lun4tic> thx 4 help. i'll try it tomorrow :D
[12:46] <dekela> help please!!!
[12:47] <mcphail> lun4tic: good luck
[12:47] <dekela> How do I mount :
[12:47] <kurt> what's the filesystem type?
[12:47] <Techno_2> Jowi: Wow :S
[12:47] <dekela> and lvm type partition
[12:47] <kurt> okay
[12:47] <dekela> Linux LVM
[12:47] <kbrooks> LinuxJones: um, full URL to it
[12:47] <dekela> I have data on it
[12:47] <kurt> okay
[12:47] <Techno_2> Jowi: As a newb, it's amazing how 40 MB suddenyl becomes one or two megs
[12:47] <kurt> it's like /dev/volgroup/etc? right?
[12:47] <Jowi> !tell Techno_2 about kernelcompile
[12:48] <dekela> no
[12:48] <dekela> /dev/sda1               1       19457   156288321   8e  Linux LVM
[12:48] <kurt> ohhhh
[12:48] <kurt> okay
[12:48] <dekela> This is the output from fdisk 0l
[12:48] <Jowi> Techno_2: yeah :)'
[12:48] <dekela> This is the output from fdisk -l
[12:48] <NeedSoundHelp> .
[12:48] <kurt> man, I haven't done this in a long time.
[12:48] <dekela> kurt, Please help
[12:48] <kurt> O'
[12:49] <dekela> kurt, all my data is there!!
[12:49] <kurt> do you know how it was structured?
[12:49] <kbrooks> LinuxJones: please give me a link to mondoarchive
[12:49] <dekela> I have 3 disks like that
[12:49] <dekela> I set it up in Suse
[12:49] <dekela> without formating the disk
[12:49] <kurt> yeah, but what's the name of the volume group the partitions are in?
[12:49] <dekela> 'and without reading about lvm!!  *Embarrest*
[12:50] <Abo> anyone knows an Ubuntu graphical client for svn?
[12:51] <kspath> Abo: apt-cache search svn    Does that show anything?
[12:51] <kurt> dekela,
[12:51] <kurt> use lvscan
[12:51] <kspath> Abo: else try  apt-cache search subversion
[12:51] <LinuxJones> kbrooks, here's a howto >> http://phazeman.mail333.com/Mondo_Rescue_CD_HOWTO.htm
[12:51] <dekela> kurt, yes
[12:51] <NubN33dzSndHelp> whats the best way to configure audio
[12:51] <kurt> and what is the output?
[12:51] <dibblego> when I add an icon to the launcher panel to execute a .sh script, nothing happens, why come?
[12:51] <dekela> kurt, dekela@dekela:~$ sudo lvscan
[12:51] <dekela>   inactive          '/dev/my_volume_group/mylv' [413.49 GB]  inherit
[12:51] <NubN33dzSndHelp> should be alsa-mixer i believe
[12:51] <kurt> okay
[12:52] <dekela> kurt, Just tell me
[12:52] <kurt> mount that
[12:52] <kurt> heh
[12:52] <dekela> kurt, Is my data lost?
[12:52] <kurt> nope
[12:52] <kurt> it's in there. I haven't had to do this in a while, though
[12:52] <g-nome> where was that article (pdf) about basic command line options?
[12:52] <dekela> kurt, Are you sure.. I had data on each partition
[12:52] <Jowi> Techno_2: according to wikipedia "In computer science, the kernel is the core piece of most operating systems. It is a piece of software responsible for the communication between hardware and software components."
[12:52] <dekela> kurt, now they are like joined together
[12:53] <Techno_2> So a collection of drivers?
[12:53] <LinuxJones> kbrooks, for the homepage >> http://www.mondorescue.org/
[12:53] <kspath> g-nome: like ls and ps and cp ?
[12:53] <Techno_2> Or the program that uses the drivers?
[12:53] <kurt> dekela: wait one moment
[12:54] <kurt> dekele: read the man pages on lvm
[12:54] <Jowi> Techno_2: basicly a bunch of drivers, yes. but that is oversimplyfying it.
[12:54] <kspath> !tell g-nome about cli
[12:54] <rredd4> !ndiswrapper
[12:54] <ubotu> from memory, ndiswrapper is a way to support Windows wireless drivers, but it is buggy compared to native support. More info at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/WifiDocs/Driver/Ndiswrapper
[12:54] <ac97ALC658> ndiswrappers cake
[12:54] <r3k13m> How I can rotate the desktops with a key combination?
[12:55] <Techno_2> And why does Linus Torvalds look like a normal guy but Bill Gates looks like a geek?
[12:55] <kspath> r3k13m: alt-tab?
[12:55] <r3k13m> mm
[12:55] <r3k13m> no wins
[12:55] <Mysta_> they both look like geeks
[12:55] <Jowi> Techno_2: the kernel also handles memory management, device management, system calls and so on and so forth
[12:55] <r3k13m> i said like stations
[12:55] <mcphail> r3k13m: system -> prefs -> keyboard shortcuts
[12:56] <rredd4> how can i get my netgear wg511v2 wireless card working without ndiswrapper?
[12:56] <r3k13m> but there only i found keys for go up, left, down and right, i wanna rotate
[12:56] <Techno_2> Musta_: Nah, Linus doesn't have the hunched back, so he just looks like some guy off of TV
[12:56] <dekela> kurt,
[12:57] <Techno_2> Jowi: Ah I see :)
[12:57] <dekela> kurt, sudo mount /dev/my_volume_group/mylv /media/test/
[12:57] <Mysta_> Techno_2: i can go w/ that
[12:57] <r3k13m> you understand me?
[12:57] <dekela> kurt, cd /media/test/
[12:57] <kurt> yeah.
[12:57] <dekela> kurt, dekela@dekela:/media/test$ ls
[12:57] <dekela> dekela@dekela:/media/test$
[12:57] <dekela> kurt, Oh My GOD!!!!!
[12:57] <kurt> well.
[12:57] <kurt> are you sure it's there?
[12:58] <kurt> mylv... I thought you said you had multiple partitions?
[12:58] <kurt> hrm.
[12:58] <mcphail> r3k13m: you mean go from landscape to portrait?
[12:58] <dekela> kurt, Yes I do

[12:59] <Jowi> ubotu: tell rredd4 about repositories
[12:59] <mephistopheles> !mysql
[12:59] <ubotu> Linux-Apache-MySQL-PHP, one of the standard internet server installations. Installing LAMP in Ubuntu is fairly straightforward. More info at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ApacheMySQLPHP

[01:00] <mephistopheles> i have installed MySQL on ubuntu but when i run phpmyadmin it says Access denied for user 'root'@'localhost' (using password: NO)
[01:00] <Jowi> np rredd4
[01:00] <Manticewoot> Could some one help me
[01:00] <dibblego> mephistopheles: read the mysql manual - the security part
[01:00] <gil> can anyone help me with this MD unit?
[01:00] <kurt> dekela, probe around using the lvm commands a bit longer. don't give up
[01:00] <Manticewoot> My Video lags behind the audio....

[01:01] <Manticewoot> When I play a video
[01:01] <fred__> hi
[01:01] <KaiL> ok, how to get WMV9 (and maybe 10 too) in gstreamer?
[01:01] <Manticewoot> I have a geforce4 on a agp2x bus
[01:01] <Jowi> Manticewoot: if i remember correctly you can sync the sound by pressing Z or X or something like that...
[01:02] <axiom> Mantice, is the video choppy or is the sound simply out of sync?
[01:02] <KaiL> Manticewoot, try xine, has normally less such problems ;) or just get a CPU above 500Mhz :p
[01:02] <Manticewoot> Sounds perfect
[01:02] <Manticewoot> The video just lags
[01:02] <r3k13m> mcphail, i can do that in kde but in gnome not, in system->prefs->keyboard shortcuts there are only to move up,down,right, how i can rotate??
[01:02] <Manticewoot> Like its really unwatchable
[01:02] <Manticewoot> it gets so out of sync
[01:03] <Jowi> Manticewoot: ah, sorry, that was for the subtitles. "+" and "-"
[01:03] <KaiL> Manticewoot, DVD?
[01:03] <axiom> Manticewoot, you can use "-" and "+" to change the sync of the audio and video
[01:03] <Manticewoot> Nah Its like XviD or DivX
[01:03] <Manticewoot> I have a 700 mhz cpu
[01:04] <Manticewoot> I thought it would be surplus when i bought it
[01:04] <KaiL> and video is far away from being usable?
[01:04] <Jowi> Manticewoot: you can also try another video out setting "mplayer -vo help" for a list
[01:04] <KaiL> or only to slow to keep the sync?
[01:05] <Jowi> Manticewoot: 700mhz should be enough.
[01:05] <Manticewoot> I want to get the video up to full speed
[01:05] <Manticewoot> It never went up to full speed on windows :S
[01:05] <KaiL> maybe some "framedrop" is already enough
[01:05] <Manticewoot> So should I get Xine ?
[01:05] <mcphail> r3k13m: i really don't know what you're trying to do. Does Alt-Esc or Ctrl-Alt-Esc do what you want?
[01:05] <g-nome> kspath: i jsut read earlier today that an article came out in a magazine about command line and was available as a pdf
[01:06] <Manticewoot> !xine
[01:06] <ubotu> Wish I knew. Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/, Manticewoot
[01:06] <kspath> g-nome: Re-read the source?
[01:06] <gil> does anyone know how to do this?
[01:06] <devnull> how can i use wpa_supplicant to connect to an AP that doesn't have a passphrase ?
[01:07] <peepsalot> i just installed ubuntu, trying to figure out how to get my mousewheel working, can anyone help
[01:07] <gil> Sony MD device as a usb Mass storage under breezy
[01:07] <Manticewoot> is there a command line to install xine
[01:08] <AngryElf> what might "missing KDE development packages" refer to?
[01:08] <jvai> "sudo apt-get install xine"
[01:08] <KaiL> jvai, xine-ui ;)
[01:08] <KaiL> nobody with a solution for WMV9 in gstreamer?
[01:08] <jvai> oops... sudo apt-get install xine-ui
[01:08] <jvai> lol
[01:08] <Jowi> peepsalot: add -->      Option          "ZAxisMapping"          "4 5"  <-- to the Section "inputdevice" in /etc/X11/xorg.conf (backup the original xorg.conf just in case)
[01:08] <g-nome> kspath: which source?
[01:09] <mcphail> r3k13m: you can also try running "gconf-editor" -> apps -> metacity -> global keybindings
[01:09] <kspath> g-nome: "i jsut read earlier today"
[01:09] <peepsalot> thanks Jowi i will try that
[01:09] <g-nome> what was the command to see all mounted devices? (also floppy etc...)

[01:09] <Vraptor> dapper drake 6.06 sound appears to be working correctly drivers are fine channels unmuted in alsamixer but no audio output
[01:09] <lufis> Hi. I recently attempted to install runit. I edited my grub menu.lst file to include the runit path. I am unable to boot into Ubuntu now. Boot will work correctly, but no UI ever comes up and things freeze when it says something along the lines of "entering runit mode..." I've edited out the runit path in the menu.lst file, but it's still doing it. What gives?
[01:09] <Jowi> g-nome: mount
[01:09] <peepsalot> is there a gnome keyboard shortcut for terminal?

[01:10] <lufis> How do I boot directly into command line?
[01:10] <Jowi> rab: proftpd is in the universe repository
[01:10] <devnull> rab you might need to add a source to apt
[01:11] <Jowi> ubotu, tell rab about repositories
[01:11] <kspath> g-nome: man df; less /etc/fstab; less /etc/mtab
[01:11] <rab> is that normally in the repsitories

[01:12] <rab> jowi, oh well it doesnt say how to do it throught command line
[01:12] <rab> nv
[01:12] <rab> nvm

[01:12] <mmia> ?
[01:12] <bthornton> Is ndiswrapper known to not play friendly with NetworkManager, or does it just depend on the hardware?
[01:12] <mmia> in my /etc/fstab
[01:12] <FlyingSquirrel32> nevermind.
[01:13] <devnull> wpa keeps talking about passphrase's and the ap's i am tryin to connect to do not have passphrases ? how can i connect to them ?
[01:13] <Jowi> mmia: post your fstab in pastebin and i can have a look
[01:13] <Vraptor> Anyone have suggestions on how to get sound working correctly?
[01:13] <KillerKiwi2006> bthornton: im using ndiswrapper and networkmanager right now
[01:13] <bthornton> KillerKiwi2006: What hardware?
[01:13] <devnull> actually how do you connect to anything besides a wep AP that doesn't use a passphrase and any wpa AP ?
[01:13] <Manticewoot> KaiL where can I get xine ?
[01:13] <GatoLoko> hi
[01:13] <KillerKiwi2006> Linksys wireless card it was a broadcom chip
[01:13] <KillerKiwi2006> has
[01:13] <bthornton> Basically, NetworkManager works with the very experimental Broadcom (bcm43xx) driver on my system, but not with ndiswrapper.
[01:13] <jhenn> hi. what does restricted copyright mean in the synaptic?
[01:14] <Vraptor> blacklist the broadcom drivers that come with ubuntu run ndiswrapper and install your drivers
[01:14] <KaiL> KillerKiwi2006, PCMCIA?
[01:14] <KillerKiwi2006> yes
[01:14] <devnull> bthornton, i haven't had problems with ndiswrapper and network manager ... my problem is with WPA
[01:14] <Manticewoot> could it be that I dont have any graphics drivers ? thats why my video is going ot of sync ?
[01:14] <KaiL> Manticewoot, xine-ui is the package name (in universe)
[01:14] <KillerKiwi2006> bthornton: did you black list the kernel driver?
[01:14] <bthornton> KillerKiwi2006: Yep
[01:14] <GatoLoko> I am thinking about helping with the Spanish translations of Ubuntu. Is there some guidelines about Rosetta or something similar that I must read before?
[01:14] <bthornton> maybe I need to reboot...
[01:14] <KillerKiwi2006> bthornton: did you install the win drivers from the cd?
[01:14] <bthornton> that feels weird to have to do in Linux tho
[01:14] <devnull> GatoLoko, that documentation should be on the ubuntu website
[01:14] <mmia> Jowi: do you have a log of #pastebin
[01:14] <mmia> ?
[01:15] <KaiL> GatoLoko, too late for dapper - no new translations after the RC :/
[01:15] <bthornton> KillerKiwi2006: No, I used one of the driver links as provided in the docs
[01:15] <Vraptor> I've RTFM, edited alsa-base, configured gstreamer-setup and am just starting to think I'm not going to have sound in linux.
[01:15] <Jowi> mmia: /msg ubotu pastebin
[01:15] <KaiL> bad enough, as some visible strings got changed :(
[01:15] <bthornton> KillerKiwi2006: It's a bit trickier for me because I've got a 64-bit system, so I must be using 64-bit drivers.
[01:15] <KillerKiwi2006> bthornton: I just used the drivers on my cd / have to copy them to the HD frist though or it fails
[01:16] <Jowi> mmia: i should have been clearer maybe :)
[01:16] <Jowi> !pastebin
[01:16] <ubotu> Please do not flood the channel http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/ for pasting long texts it does not disrupt the channel. [webboard for Ubuntu: http://www.gnomefiles.org/app.php?soft_id=1269 : not an offical package]
[01:16] <devnull> bthornton, honestly i would not use the 64bit install
[01:16] <KillerKiwi2006> bthornton: ahh well that could be it :)
[01:16] <devnull> i have a turion chip and had issues with gentoo and ubuntu in 64bit version because not everything is 64bit ready yet
[01:16] <Manticewoot> I had Ubuntu 64 bit its a pain in the ass to look for stuff that works with 64 bit
[01:16] <GatoLoko> devnull I know, but I'm asking if somebody can tell me about a "must read"
[01:16] <devnull> GatoLoko, okay sorry about that .... i haven't really read through the docs on writing docs
[01:16] <KaiL> devnull, not already switched to i386?
[01:17] <GatoLoko> KaiL i'm not talking about dapper, but ubuntu in general, edgy and next
[01:17] <devnull> kail: ?
[01:17] <KaiL> edgy *should* get better amd64 support - let's hope..
[01:17] <devnull> well as far as i know i had a very unpleasant time with ubuntu and gentoo 64 because i am using the latest and development software
[01:18] <devnull> though it seems the ATI drivers actually worked better with the 64bit version
[01:18] <devnull> but on top of that i didn't notice any speed increases over i386
[01:18] <mmia> There, I posted my fstab.
[01:19] <Afief> guys, is there a way to easily reconfigure X? i think i messed up my configuration file without keeping a backup
[01:19] <KillerKiwi2006> devnull: I've screwd my opengl for my ati card... I have no idea how to fix it it worked from default install to ... :)
[01:19] <devnull> KillerKiwi2006, i would try removing all ATI drivers and software all together including kernel drivers and reinstall all of them
[01:19] <devnull> KillerKiwi2006, unfortunately depending on your card support is non existant
[01:19] <KaiL> ...and still nobody knowing about WMV9 + gstreamer? :)
[01:19] <KillerKiwi2006> devnull: I know...
[01:19] <devnull> i would never suggest an ATI card for linux
[01:20] <KillerKiwi2006> devnull: Nvida for my next latop i think
[01:20] <devnull> KaiL, idk anything about wmv9 but there are packages of extra codecs
[01:20] <g-nome> whickh laptop sells with nvidia and is good?
[01:20] <KaiL> devnull, yes, w32codecs
[01:20] <devnull> KillerKiwi2006, yea same thing here ... this ati card in linux kills me
[01:20] <ZeXr0> Is there a way to install Ubuntu with a Wifi Card ?
[01:20] <RemyLaptop> hi guys, does anyone know much about the "at" command ?
[01:20] <KaiL> but to get them to work with gstreamer is the problem
[01:20] <crimsun> KaiL: no GSt support for it afaik.
[01:20] <devnull> kail there is more than likely another package or 2
[01:20] <KillerKiwi2006> devnull: no xgl magic is sad....
[01:21] <RemyLaptop> !tell KaiL about wifi
[01:21] <Vraptor> I was using xgl on an ati card
[01:21] <RemyLaptop> !tell ZeXr0 about wifi
[01:21] <RemyLaptop> :-)
[01:21] <KaiL> RemyLaptop, ;)
[01:21] <RemyLaptop> my bad :-P
[01:21] <Jowi> mmia: try this instead: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/14695
[01:21] <devnull> KillerKiwi2006, yea i wanted xgl aswell but if you think about it, if you are using battery power with xgl you will run the battery down faster because of the use of the 3dcard
[01:21] <KaiL> crimsun, there's gstreamer0.10-pitfdll
[01:21] <mcphail> RemyLaptop: I've used at before, but need to go back to the man pages...
[01:21] <KaiL> only problem: it doesn't work
[01:21] <Afief> guys, is there a way to easily reconfigure X? i think i messed up my configuration file without keeping a backup
[01:21] <crimsun> KaiL: last I checked that was hardly native.
[01:21] <RemyLaptop> I've read the man pages, but I'm not altogether convinced I've gotten the syntax right
[01:22] <RemyLaptop> I'm looking up examples of use atm
[01:22] <ryanakca> tcp6       0      0 *:www                   *:*                     LISTEN             =        Port 80 to any client, on ipv6   ?
[01:22] <RemyLaptop> should fix it for me :)
[01:22] <Jowi> mmia: add utf-8 if needed
[01:22] <mcphail> Afief: sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[01:22] <KillerKiwi2006> devnull: But i love the 3d cube thingy
[01:22] <devnull> i stopped trying to get the ati drivers to work because it was more important to have a stable system for me
[01:22] <devnull> KillerKiwi2006, who doesn't
[01:22] <ZeXr0> RemyLaptop : I know how wifi works, I was just wondering if I can install Ubuntu with my wifi connection ?
[01:22] <devnull> KillerKiwi2006, you should be able to get the drivers working with GL and have XGL running even with ATI but it might take a few days to get it setup correctly
[01:22] <bthornton> KillerKiwi2006: You got XGL working on your lappy?
[01:22] <RemyLaptop> you mean install it OVER a wifi connection ?
[01:23] <ZeXr0> yup
[01:23] <devnull> and if you try to do it. do it one step at a time and don't change to much in one shot
[01:23] <KaiL> devnull, du you have numbers, about how much more power is needed for Xgl?
[01:23] <RemyLaptop> I'm afraid I don't know :)
[01:23] <KillerKiwi2006> bthornton: I did.... not any more :)
[01:23] <GTroy_> this is off topic, but what's the first language taught for comp sci at mit?
[01:23] <_mason> Hey, How do i set the port in BitTorrent, port 6881 is blacklisted ?
[01:23] <Jowi> mmia: i can really say if ntfs has proper write support though or if it is still experimental (never had a ntfs partition)
[01:23] <GTroy_> sorry for the off-topic guys
[01:23] <judah> wifi connection is just like ethernet.. just with now wires.
[01:23] <devnull> KaiL, i wouldnt image it being much .. but if you are using your graphics card's 3d power you will use more actuall power than 2d
[01:23] <bthornton> KillerKiwi2006: FWIW, I'm running a laptop with ATI video with Dapper and I have OpenGL working great with just fglrx drivers provided in... Multiverse?  I think.
[01:23] <judah> so the answer is yes.. as long as the card is supported by the install cd.
[01:24] <KaiL> ZeXr0, ubuntu doesn't have any "netinstall" afaik, but if you mean installing the language-packs, it should work
[01:24] <bthornton> KillerKiwi2006: Incidently, even though OGL runs great, XGL never did :(
[01:24] <cerberused> yello people!
[01:24] <devnull> imagine
[01:24] <judah> (updates after install maybe.. ;) )
[01:24] <titanium_platypu> after 5-10 minutes of playing pretty much any 3d-accelerated game, the screen slowly fades to total blackness, and I can't seem to fix it anyway except restarting X
[01:24] <ZeXr0> Oh.. I thought the install was like Debian, if not then that should be perfect
[01:24] <titanium_platypu> what is going on?
[01:24] <KaiL> at least with ipw2100/2200/3945 it does ;)
[01:24] <judah> one cd install..
[01:24] <judah> then updates from the network.
[01:24] <devnull> titanium_platypu, what graphics card
[01:25] <Techno_2> What is "initrd"?
[01:25] <[nige] > hi all
[01:25] <titanium_platypu> NVidia GeForce MX 4000
[01:25] <KaiL> titanium_platypu, shoulds like the screensaver
[01:25] <judah> NAME
[01:25] <judah>        initrd - boot loader initialized RAM disk
[01:25] <Techno_2> Do I need it?
[01:25] <titanium_platypu> hm....disable the screensaver and try?
[01:25] <cerberused> &*% HIHI people! ^_^
[01:25] <KaiL> play a bit with the keyboard and it should come back...
[01:25] <KillerKiwi2006> jhenn: Give my another way and i will use it
[01:25] <titanium_platypu> nah, I thought that and tried it.
[01:25] <titanium_platypu> it didn't work.
[01:25] <devnull> titanium_platypu, make sure you have the latest nvidia drivers and kernel driver ... im rather certain the nvidia drivers work very well with most nvidia cards
[01:25] <Vraptor> Need Help Sound doesn't play Dapper Drake 6.06 intel onboard sound alc658
[01:26] <Vraptor> no errors all volumes un muted
[01:26] <titanium_platypu> yeah, I do have the latest drivers
[01:26] <devnull> titanium_platypu, you can try that
[01:26] <titanium_platypu> okay
[01:26] <titanium_platypu> thanks
[01:26] <ShadowShuriken> hey guyz
[01:26] <crimsun> Vraptor: pastebin the output from ``lspci -v && tail -2 /proc/asound/oss/sndstat && amixer''
[01:26] <devnull> actually nvidia's linux support is great
[01:26] <judah> Techno_2: ubuntu's kernel does use initrd to boot their kernels.
[01:26] <jhenn> KillerKiwi2006: write your own drivers or protest at ATI to get them to release specs
[01:26] <mcphail> titanium_platypu: you maybe need the "legacy" driver for that card?
[01:26] <devnull> Techno_2, if you are using a ubuntu kernel yes
[01:27] <AngryElf> hey guys what's the syntax for cat to add a string to the end of a file??  i would think it'd be something like    cat file "string" > new_file  but obviously that's not working
[01:27] <judah> file /boot/initrd.img-2.6.15-22-686
[01:27] <judah> /boot/initrd.img-2.6.15-22-686: gzip compressed data, from Unix, max compression
[01:27] <KaiL> jhenn, ATi at least gives spec for older hardware....
[01:27] <gymsmoke> i've been looking through some of the docs on the upcoming dapper release...
[01:27] <gymsmoke> cat >> file
[01:27] <KaiL> nVidia doesn't :/
[01:27] <jhenn> KaiL: nice
[01:27] <mcphail> AngryElf: use two >
[01:27] <devnull> KillerKiwi2006, i would suggest searching the net and see if anyone else has the same specs as you and has it working
[01:27] <KillerKiwi2006> jhenn: I have do disire to spend years writing drivers sorry
[01:27] <gymsmoke> there's a couple of forum threads saying _not_ to use dapper as a primary os / desktop
[01:27] <kspath> AngryElf:  > is redirect   >> is append
[01:27] <KaiL> but with nVidia you doesn't need to wait until the card is hopeless outdated, to get a WORKING driver ;)
[01:27] <jhenn> KillerKiwi2006: well where would we be with that attitude?
[01:27] <devnull> doesn't bother me if nvidia doesn't give up specs as long as they keep releasing drivers
[01:28] <jhenn> KillerKiwi2006: there would be no gnu/linux for you to use.
[01:28] <jhenn> devnull: and that will be your downfall
[01:28] <devnull> i can't even remember what i had to do on my last install to get my ATI drivers to work correctly
[01:28] <gymsmoke> if breezy is supposed to be updated to dapper, why is that possible?
[01:28] <jvai>  cant ait to upgraqde to dapper, on hoary now, but.. hoary is sooo sweet!, easy ubuntu, got me set up nicely, dvd playback, & any windows media.. i'll wait.....
[01:28] <devnull> jhenn, probably but their drivers for linux kick ass compared to any other company
[01:29] <KillerKiwi2006> jhenn: Got to be honest I wish all drivers were open, i konw they never will be due to stupid american patents, and by the time the driver is reverese enginered I ll have a new latop with a new card
[01:29] <KaiL> devnull, you doesn't need to memorize that - it's always some different voodoo ;)
[01:29] <imichel> my computer couldn't install ubuntu
[01:29] <cerberused> S-O-N-I-C     R-O-C-K-S     O-N     L-I-N-U-X!!!!
[01:29] <KaiL> imichel, how that?
[01:29] <gymsmoke> no,but you could install ubuntu on your computer ;)
[01:29] <Jowi> gymsmoke: breezy and dapper are different releases. you can still use breezy for another year or so supported. dapper is in RC atm
[01:29] <jhenn> devnull: KillerKiwi2006 then i have nothing more to say to you two. bye.
[01:29] <devnull> KaiL, yea i know it is silly ... but not only that but if i did remember what i did i probably have to change half of my system
[01:29] <Vraptor> http://pastebin.com/740323
[01:29] <AngryElf> kspath, mcphail i think you missed my point......i want to add a string to the end of a file, in one command.....id ont want to do the cat command and then type stuff in
[01:29] <mcphail> gymsmoke: dapper hasn't been released yet, so it is still "unstable"
[01:29] <Vraptor> sorry took me a while
[01:30] <devnull> cool
[01:30] <mcphail> AngryElf: use "echo"
[01:30] <gymsmoke> right, but it's due for release next month, yeah ?
[01:30] <Techno_2> Thank you for all your help
[01:30] <Techno_2> It's time to reboot
[01:30] <KaiL> gymsmoke, 6 days from now
[01:30] <KaiL> or 5...
[01:30] <jvai> techno.. u on win xp?
[01:30] <KaiL> at least 2006-06-01
[01:30] <cappiz> i configured to NICS at my computer... one is WAN and one is wired NIC... the WAN is the one wich holds the inet connection. but when i configured the second, wich om gonan use for my internal router (dhcp)... the WAN stops working. when i try to ping i get LAN IP _ DEstination host unrechable
[01:30] <Jowi> gymsmoke: but you don't need to upgrade if you don't want :)
[01:30] <Techno_2> This was my first kernal recompiling
[01:30] <devnull> yea i am not seeking to get my 3d working ... as long as my laptop stay stable i need it to work so i can't mess around with ATI's crap drivers for the moment
[01:30] <cappiz> how can that be configured correctly ?
[01:30] <Techno_2> Bye :)
[01:30] <mmia> Jowi: I do not have it on vfat either.  I know that you can't chmod it cuz it's faked.
[01:31] <mmia> Actually
[01:31] <mmia> what I realized is-----
[01:31] <KaiL> devnull, which card?
[01:31] <gymsmoke> KaiL: so with all of th questionable functionality and a release date of approximately one week, there must be thousands of people working round the clock to finish it...
[01:31] <Jowi> mmia: wrong /dev ?
[01:31] <devnull> radion X200m
[01:31] <mmia> I needed to set the permissions for users, before I mounted the vfat partition on that directory
[01:31] <mmia> .
[01:31] <nzx> hey, i'm trying to run this command 'evrouter /dev/input/event4 > /dev/null' when gnome loads, but it wont work, please help
[01:31] <Jowi> mmia: ah
[01:31] <KaiL> gymsmoke, why?
[01:31] <ShadowShuriken> devnull, hey could u helpme out?
[01:31] <KaiL> it works VERY good for me, not for you?
[01:31] <devnull> ShadowShuriken, whats you question
[01:32] <devnull> kail: me ?
[01:32] <mmia> That was the way, apparently, that I got my write access.
[01:32] <KaiL> devnull, the vga chip, yes
[01:32] <ShadowShuriken> devnull, well...i've got ubuntu...and i wanna do sumthing with it...but i have no clue of what to do :(
[01:32] <gymsmoke> KaiL: a production release within a week, and the forums, user lists, and channels are full of threads about what's broke in dapper
[01:32] <devnull> 2d works fine ... i just dont have the time to mess with the 3d drivers for it at the moment ... i can't have this lappy down for more than a day or i will lose to much time
[01:32] <crimsun> Vraptor: in a Terminal, type: amixer set 'IEC958 Playback AC97-SPSA' 0 && amixer set 'Duplicate Front' on
[01:33] <Bung> hey, ive got to reformat my other comp, should i backup anything other then my home directory?
[01:33] <mcphail> gymsmoke: erm, that's what beta testing is all about...
[01:33] <devnull> ShadowShuriken, it helps to know what you want to do first
[01:33] <eobanb> yay for Picasa on ubuntu! some screenshots i took: http://eoban.com/fileserve/images/picasa-linux/
[01:33] <KaiL> gymsmoke, how many pebcak problems are between that? I guess maaaaany ;)
[01:33] <devnull> bung ... i like to backup my webroot and /usr/local
[01:33] <Vraptor> done
[01:33] <gymsmoke> KaiL: ?pebcak?
[01:33] <ShadowShuriken> devnull, u see thats kinda the prob...i wanna make stuff and customize and everything...and play wargames..
[01:33] <crimsun> Vraptor: now, ``aplay /usr/share/sounds/startup.wav''
[01:33] <KaiL> gymsmoke, layer8-error
[01:33] <Bung> devnull, webroot, meaning if i had a webserver running?
[01:34] <KaiL> or just "stupid user"
[01:34] <devnull> ShadowShuriken, if you are just looking for stuff to do you can check out your ART's manager to change you background's, login screens, and splash screen
[01:34] <devnull> there is an entire menu for preferences for gnome aswell
[01:34] <gymsmoke> KaiL: probably quite a few... i've seen a large number of those with any linux...
[01:34] <devnull> Bung, yes .. probably /var/www
[01:34] <ShadowShuriken> devnull, i kinda got that part... but i wanna create apps and stuff...
[01:34] <ShadowShuriken> devnull, yet i'm new to...programming in c..
[01:35] <devnull> ShadowShuriken, i would look into what kind of apps you want to make first
[01:35] <Bung> devnull: yea ok, ill check out my /usr/local too, thanks
[01:35] <ShadowShuriken> devnull, web related..
[01:35] <gymsmoke> KaiL: so, if the bulkl of those issues are operator error, then dapper will probably be a stable platform when released...
[01:35] <devnull> bung ... possibly back up /etc
[01:35] <gymsmoke> ^bulk
[01:35] <Abo> eveytime I run a svn command on ubuntu, nano opens a temp svn file... all I have to do is close it (^X) and then click "c" for (Continue), anyone knows the reason?
[01:35] <KaiL> I don't think, that spending much more time will fix a relevant number of bugs
[01:35] <devnull> ShadowShuriken, i would get yourself a editor for webpages first and learn Layout and HTML ... then i would suggest PHP for scripting webpages or even Ruby for Ruby on Rails
[01:36] <mcphail> ShadowShuriken: writing "web-related" apps in C is not an easy process
[01:36] <KaiL> the only thing, which REALLY didn't work well for dapper are the localisations
[01:36] <devnull> ShadowShuriken, yea i would learn a Scripting language before I would learn C for web programming
[01:36] <AngryElf> so i'm trying to add a string to the end of /etc/hosts using a command......."sudo string >> /etc/hosts" gives me perm denied....any other way?
[01:36] <ShadowShuriken> mcphail, hmm...well...i know html, csss and whatnot...
[01:36] <KaiL> gymsmoke, did you thy it for your own?
[01:36] <Bung> devnull, that would be if id done any extra configuring for X or something eh? I think its all default stuff there for me :)
[01:36] <devnull> i know c/c++/java but use Scripting languages like PHP/Perl/Ruby for web apps
[01:36] <crimsun> AngryElf: echo "string" |sudo tee -a /etc/hosts
[01:36] <baconbacon> "not an easy process" is a big understatement
[01:36] <Jowi> ShadowShuriken: you have a lot to choose from. gambas is cool. kinda like VisualBasic. a RAD tool for creating apps. Anjuta work well. you can also go with Python or Perl or Java or any other flavour of launguages.
[01:36] <mcphail> ShadowShuriken: Trust me, you don't want to use C for the web.
[01:37] <devnull> bung: yea if you had to configure anything yourself i would copy /etc just incase .. but if all is default than I wouldn't worry about it
[01:37] <ShadowShuriken> mcphail, lol...is it really complicated?
[01:37] <ShadowShuriken> mcphail, what about asp and...xml?
[01:37] <Abo> anyone knows of a svn/ubuntu IRC channel?
[01:37] <AngryElf> thanx crimsun
[01:37] <Bung> devnull: thanks again man! im out.
[01:38] <mcphail> ShadowShuriken: not complicated: C is a very simple language. But if you don't know what you are doing (parsing input etc) you will be pwned in no time.
[01:38] <Vraptor> hmm
[01:38] <baconbacon> ShadowShuriken: as i said about C web coding :  "not an easy process" is a big understatement
[01:38] <devnull> ShadowShuriken, don't worry about ASP if you are using anyting other than Windows .... i would suggest Apache webserver with PHP4 or 5 and there are like a million tutorials and docs to get you started
[01:38] <Vraptor> now its doing almost a screaming beep
[01:38] <devnull> if you need a Database get MySQL
[01:38] <Vraptor> when I start the startup.wav it loads but sound is all distorted and crazy
[01:39] <Vraptor> and theres this constat tone
[01:39] <ShadowShuriken> devnull, well... i need to setup a small server b4..i can do that rite?
[01:39] <Techno_2> I've compiled a downloaded kernel, but I'm not sure how to use grub to boot it
[01:39] <devnull> to setup a webserver in ubuntu all you will need is apache2
[01:39] <HIHello> HI,having trouble with screen resolution...It wont show options for over 60Hz and 1024-768 in screen resolution preferences,any ideas on how to change to 1440-900 on my LCD which is using analog right now.
[01:39] <majd> hi
[01:39] <devnull> which will create /var/www as your webroot which you can reach at http://localhost
[01:39] <majd> i get this message whenever i try to run upgrade
[01:39] <majd> It is impossible to install or remove any software. Please use the package manager "Synaptic" or run "sudo apt-get install -f" in a terminal to fix this issue at first.
[01:40] <majd> i guess i should try what it says before asking....
[01:40] <ShadowShuriken> devnull, and i would also like a small file server...to which windows/ubuntu pcs can connect...
[01:40] <devnull> majd go to a terminal and do sudo apt-get install -f
[01:40] <devnull> ShadowShuriken, setup Samba then for that
[01:40] <majd> devnull, yeah i'm sorry i'm an idiot
[01:40] <devnull> majd not an idiot just not an expert
[01:40] <HIHello> HI,having trouble with screen resolution...It wont show options for over 60Hz and 1024-768 in screen resolution preferences,any ideas on how to change to 1440-900 on my LCD which is using analog right now.
[01:40] <HIHello> SOrry to double post
[01:40] <ShadowShuriken> devnull, i tried but was not successful in getting it to recognize the windows pcs...let alone the ubuntu ones...

[01:41] <Jowi> Techno_2: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelCompileHowto
[01:41] <devnull> ShadowShuriken, you need to setup samba first and it probably will allow you to see PC's .... wont help you find linux boxes
[01:41] <blaze> where is the ubuntu startup file and how can i add new applications to it?
[01:41] <ice60> can someone show me the command, or how, to take a screenshot with fluxbox, please?
[01:41] <Vraptor> sweeeeet
[01:41] <Vraptor> I have sound
[01:42] <majd> what should i do for postfix configuration?

[01:42] <ShadowShuriken> devnull, and how about making a domain for it?
[01:42] <blaze> kspath, ok.. :) i'll check it
[01:42] <granden> Hi, which package of w32codecs should I get for ubuntu dapper drake?
[01:43] <Meshack> I am currently demoing the live cd version of ubuntu. When I boot using the live cd all the hardware seems to work fine except no sound from soundcard. I checked to see if mute was set however it proved to be ok. Next I checked device manager to see if my sound card was recognized by ubuntu. Yep it found my sound card fine but still no sound. Help?
[01:43] <Vraptor> Crimsun U the man
[01:43] <Vraptor> thanks for the help
[01:43] <crimsun> Vraptor: np

[01:43] <issaker> does anyone know how i can switch the harddrive that has a windows partition to a different harddrive controller ?
[01:43] <devnull> ShadowShuriken, a local domain or a Domain Name ?
[01:43] <issaker> and boot up properly
[01:43] <crimsun> Meshack: pastebin the output from ``lspci -v && tail -2 /proc/asound/oss/sndstat && amixer''
[01:43] <ShadowShuriken> devnull, u know the way some servers are setup with...a domain name at the end..
[01:44] <devnull> ShadowShuriken, what servers ?
[01:44] <granden> Anyone?
[01:44] <ShadowShuriken> devnull, SBS
[01:45] <issaker> quick question
[01:45] <Meshack> Thanks crimsum for the help.
[01:45] <kspath> granden: /msg ubotu w32codecs
[01:45] <devnull> well if it is public server you need a domain name and you can just use subdomains for your servers
[01:45] <devnull> if it is internal servers IDK
[01:45] <ShadowShuriken> devnull, o ok...
[01:45] <majd> !upgrade
[01:45] <ubotu> well, upgrade is Upgrading to Ubuntu 5.10 breezy -> http://wiki.ubuntu.com/BreezyUpgrade. Upgrading to Ubuntu 6.06 Dapper -> https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DapperUpgrades . Note command line: gksudo "update-manager -d" always updates to the bleeding edge.

[01:49] <Manika> can anyone recommend me a download manager?
[01:49] <Jowi> Techno_2: same thing. you don't need the initrd file.
[01:49] <northerntrekker> I was messing with an install and I needed to give myself more permission to the USR directory. so I did sudo chmod 762 to it... and now I'm locked out of everything except the concole window
[01:49] <seif1> devnull: help plz i dont understand
[01:49] <northerntrekker> like the destop is gone
[01:50] <Manika> !tell Manika about dapper
[01:50] <Techno_2> Jowi: Iwas told that you do
[01:50] <Techno_2> :S
[01:50] <northerntrekker> so I wanted to log in as the root
[01:50] <samuel> What is best ubuntu or suse?
[01:50] <northerntrekker> but dunno how
[01:50] <ShadowShuriken> ub0tu tell Manika about dapper
[01:50] <kspath> !tell majd about kubuntu
[01:50] <ompaul> samuel, you ask that in a ubuntu channel - guess :-)
[01:50] <northerntrekker> can anyone please help?
[01:50] <ShadowShuriken> !tell Manika about dapper
[01:51] <Manika> can anyone recommend me a download manager?
[01:51] <jvai> lol
[01:51] <devnull> seifl right click on your panel ... add to panel ... find main menu
[01:51] <samuel> how do i add kde to ubuntu?
[01:51] <northerntrekker> anyone at all
[01:51] <foodcoman> Does anyone know the dpkg command that would reconcile my repositories with my installed apps.  My package manager shows some stuff not installed that is.
[01:51] <mcphail> Manika: wget
[01:51] <jvai> ubuntu is sweet
[01:51] <kspath> !tell samuel about kubuntu
[01:51] <seif1> devnull: yeah but it has the application places and system, i want just the menu icon and then when i click it it should expand
[01:51] <KenSentMe> !tell northerntrekker about root
[01:51] <Techno_2> Reboot!
[01:51] <devnull> seifl .... do what i just said
[01:52] <ompaul> northerntrekker, this might help
[01:52] <devnull> then remove the extra menus you don't need from your panel by right clicking on them
[01:52] <kspath> KenSentMe: Who sent you?
[01:52] <Manika> mcphail: can it pause downloads? that's all I need
[01:52] <ompaul> northerntrekker, sudo chmod 755 /usr
[01:52] <mcphail> Manika: you can stop and resume later if the server allows
[01:52] <KenSentMe> kspath: the message on the wall did
[01:52] <northerntrekker> it says permission not allowed
[01:52] <Jowi> Techno_2: the initrd file is not needed. to add your kernel do this: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/14698
[01:52] <ompaul> northerntrekker, get a live cd boot the box mount the drive and do that
[01:53] <northerntrekker> ugh, there is no other way?
[01:53] <northerntrekker> my other machine is a mac and it doesn't think kindly of burning cds, linux, or anything dealing with efficenticy
[01:54] <devnull> hehe
[01:54] <seif1>  devnull ur not understanding my question
[01:54] <IoFran> nos vemos
[01:54] <devnull> an mac's are only the most stable and easy to use desktop operating system at the moment
[01:54] <northerntrekker> I think ubuntu is way better and I've been using a mac for like 8 years
[01:54] <ompaul> northerntrekker, not that I can think of given that you can't execute the commands
[01:55] <devnull> seif1, maybe i am not but what you asked me i just told you .... i was in your position aswell and removed the extra menus from my panel and added a main menu ... the main menu is the Application Menu, Places, and the Settings menu all in one
[01:55] <northerntrekker> what if I drop into the sh shell
[01:55] <northerntrekker> can I log into the root from there?
[01:55] <ompaul> northerntrekker, and here is the down side - if you did that with a -R all bets are off
[01:55] <northerntrekker> oh crap
[01:55] <ompaul> northerntrekker, now your thinking, do this
[01:55] <northerntrekker> I did a sudo would that count?
[01:55] <devnull> seif1, so unless you want to send me a link to a screenshot as i understand it I told you how to do what you wanted
[01:55] <ompaul> northerntrekker, did you do -R ?
[01:55] <northerntrekker> no
[01:55] <devnull> sorry if i sound rude ... just not in a good mood today
[01:56] <ompaul> northerntrekker, sudo is do as the superuser
[01:56] <Niah> Hey, people, I've got a problem... whenever I try any command in the terminal, for instance apt-get upgrade, I get this weird error message... sudo: unable to lookup 062016214253 via gethostbyname()
[01:56] <Niah> . I'm on a fresh install, and probably messed up something. Anyone know how to fix this?
[01:56] <northerntrekker> I know I know :(
[01:56] <northerntrekker> all this for real player 10
[01:56] <northerntrekker> and I don't even like real player
[01:56] <devnull> hehe
[01:56] <devnull> if you don't like realplayer there is the helix project
[01:56] <devnull> i believe that is the project that works on real player codec
[01:57] <northerntrekker> well first I need root access before I can think of anything else
[01:57] <Techno_2> Jovi: I'm stuck :(
[01:57] <devnull> seif1, would you like to see a screenshot of my desktop ?
[01:57] <northerntrekker> otherwise I'l be reinstalling to night and crying and drinnking.....
[01:57] <Jowi> Techno_2: I make it easy for you: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/14700 (note that 2 reffers to /boot/grub/menu.lst
[01:57] <devnull> northerntrekker, man how many times have we all had those nights :)
[01:57] <ompaul> northerntrekker, so as the machine boots gets to grub press esc and then choose recovery or rescue (can't remember) then >>mount -a <<and chown as I said already >> sudo chmod 755 /usr <<
[01:58] <mcphail> Niah: i think you may have messed up the sudoers file. It _can_ be fixed, but may be easier to reinstall...
[01:58] <ryness> anyone know of a video conferencing / collaboration / whiteboard server/client for *nix? (oss preferred)
[01:58] <northerntrekker> I'm gonna try right now
[01:58] <Niah> argh. Damn.
[01:58] <northerntrekker> can you hold on?
[01:58] <Besso> Hi dose anyone know why Flashplayer sound stops working some time. Dose it have somthing to do with my webcam wich has a built in microfon ???
[01:58] <Niah> Well, thanks anyway.
[01:58] <mcphail> Niah: were you installing dapper?
[01:58] <Niah> nope, breezy
[01:58] <ompaul> northerntrekker, when you come back look at this link:  https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RestrictedFormats it tells you how to install that software under Ubuntu
[01:59] <ompaul> !dapper
[01:59] <ubotu> **** News Flash **** Dapper has its own channel #ubuntu+1 please join there for dapper (the beta of the next release) configuration, install,  or other conversation, dapper will be in #ubuntu starting 1st of june :-) But not until then
[01:59] <Techno_2> Ah poo I messed the file paths up :S
[01:59] <Niah> I messed up my old ubuntu and had to reinstall
[01:59] <mcphail> mmm. The dapper live-cd install has a few places where things like that can trip you up!
[01:59] <devnull> seif1, if you need more help just messag eme
[01:59] <Jowi> Techno_2: also make sure that both root (hd0,4) and root=/dev/hda5 is correct.
[02:00] <igorzolnikov> i want install XMMS... help me
[02:00] <igorzolnikov> plz
[02:00] <northerntrekker> oh I'm well aware of how to install software, I just let my ego blow up and thought I could shortcut this by giving myself complete access to USR... and my fat fingers hit the wrong numbers
[02:00] <northerntrekker> before I could say oh s*** all my rights were gone
[02:00] <ompaul> igorzolnikov, so click on system administration add programs
[02:01] <Niah> igorzolnikov: xmms should be in the reps... open up your terminal and type sudo apt-get install xmms
[02:01] <igorzolnikov> there gray
[02:01] <digirat> how do you install something through apt with all the recommended and suggested packages?
[02:01] <Techno_2> Jowi: Yes all correct
[02:02] <Techno_2> I've done that, but it can't fidn the swap partition or the root partition when usign the new kernel
[02:02] <igorzolnikov> E: Package xmms has no installation candidate
[02:02] <igorzolnikov> ???
[02:02] <igorzolnikov> What is it?
[02:02] <crimsun> igorzolnikov: enable the main repository.
[02:02] <Jowi> Techno_2: maybe you forgot to compile in support for that into your kernel :)
[02:02] <igorzolnikov> how?
[02:03] <Techno_2> I used menuconfig, am I correct in asuming that it adds everything?
[02:03] <ompaul> igorzolnikov, sudo apt-get install xmms <<< what version of ubuntu are you running?
[02:03] <Jowi> Techno_2: /dev/hda3 = (hd0,2), /dev/hdb3 = (hd1,2)
[02:03] <jvai_> back.. silly coffee shop, bounced me off
[02:03] <igorzolnikov> 5.10
[02:03] <igorzolnikov> i have ubuntu 5.10
[02:03] <ompaul> that command I gave installs it or you have a very broken system
[02:04] <LinuxJones> igorzolnikov, you need to enable the universe repo
[02:04] <ompaul> crimsun, why would main be disabled?
[02:04] <ompaul> LinuxJones, its in mail
[02:04] <ompaul> LinuxJones, its in main
[02:04] <Techno_2> Would hdc5 be hd2, 2?
[02:04] <crimsun> ompaul: no viable network connection during install, or network configuration skipped.
[02:04] <northerntrekker> !tell kensentme about ubuntu
[02:04] <LinuxJones> xmms ?
[02:04] <ompaul> crimsun, thank you
[02:04] <northerntrekker> hey I think it might have worked
[02:04] <igorzolnikov> i will try... but i have problem with  universe repo
[02:04] <Jowi> Techno_2: hdc5 = (hd2,4)
[02:05] <Bung> I want the lightest ubuntu there is, should i go with Xubuntu or UbuntuLite+Xfce
[02:05] <devnull> is ubuntu taking desktop screenshots for their site ... seems like they need some more ?
[02:05] <Bung> (yes im going with xfce instead of flux or something)
[02:05] <devnull> xfce kicks butt
[02:05] <northerntrekker> everyone QUICK CROSS YOUR FINGERS!
[02:05] <Techno_2> Jowi: Cheers, what a weird system
[02:05] <titanium_platypu> devnull, yah it does
[02:05] <Jowi> Techno_2: i agree :)
[02:05] <Techno_2> Thanks Jowi
[02:05] <Techno_2> Reboot!
[02:05] <crimsun> Bung: if you're going to do that, you may as well install a server candidate and then install xfce4 and x-window-system-core
[02:05] <pelele> hi
[02:06] <crimsun> Bung: that's just about the slimmest xfce4 install you'll get

[02:08] <crimsun> Bung: either the base installation choice in the alternate installer, or the server install
[02:08] <igorzolnikov> i click on XMMS... (Add Applications) -> Information >> The application can not be found in your archive. This usually means that it is not available for your hardware plattform.

[02:30] <ubotu> it has been said that apache is https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ApacheMySQLPHP
[02:30] <ShadowShuriken> RandolphCarter, php5 would be good...:)...umm...any thing else like...phpmyadmin or mysql?
[02:30] <xavice> Lol.
[02:30] <xavice> Neato.
[02:30] <simian__> Jowi: which is the recomended way
[02:30] <RandolphCarter> ShadowShuriken: they're all there too :)
[02:30] <ShadowShuriken> RandolphCarter, okie thx :)
[02:30] <Jowi> simian__: no idea. personally i put it in /usr/bin

[02:31] <Jimbob> what happens when i plug a harddrive that has a windows installation onto a different haddrive controller?
[02:31] <RandolphCarter> ShadowShuriken: you'll need to install the packages for them though - try running 'aptitude' and browsing through the 'net' section
[02:31] <Jimbob> does the drive letter change?
[02:31] <ShadowShuriken> !tell ShadowShuriken about apache
[02:31] <ShadowShuriken> RandolphCarter, okie..
[02:31] <ZeXr0> Jimbob it will change only for the OS you are on it
[02:31] <ompaul> ShadowShuriken, please msg the bot with /msg ubotu KEYWORD and do  >> /msg ubotu lamp << for a good one there :-)
[02:32] <ZeXr0> it will stay the same on the installation once you plugit back
[02:32] <DianWei> Hey pals, my computer keeps freexing when trying to apt-get install&& apt-get upgrade, and gets stuck at setting up wvdial... seeings as how I don't use my dialup modem for nothing, would getting rid of that package save me some terrible grief?
[02:32] <ZeXr0> (Don't know if it clear enought)
[02:32] <Jimbob> zexr0 , but what if  want to stay at that different harddrive controller
[02:32] <ShadowShuriken> ompaul, thx
[02:32] <Jimbob> i wont be able to boot like that would i?
[02:33] <Jowi> DianWei: sudo apt-get remove wvdial
[02:33] <ZeXr0> hum it depents, is the disk stays master ?
[02:33] <ZeXr0> if yeah it should be okay
[02:33] <Jowi> DianWei: no idea if it will fix it though
[02:33] <Jimbob> its a sata
[02:33] <signature16> i have a IBM t30 laptop and i dont know how to use the built in number pad.  anybody know how?
[02:33] <ZeXr0> oh
[02:33] <Jimbob> is there master in sata?
[02:33] <ZeXr0> then I don,t know
[02:33] <CokeNCode> no\
[02:33] <Jimbob> =(
[02:33] <ZeXr0> I didn't know about sata
[02:33] <ZeXr0> but if you give me one second
[02:33] <DianWei> It tells me to do this, which will lead to configuring wvdial, and freez again. "dpkg --configure -a"
[02:34] <ompaul> signature16, check the blue buttons and the numlock key :-)
[02:34] <Jowi> signature16: normally you hold the "fn" key down i think and make sure that num lock is enabled
[02:34] <myname> hello
[02:34] <xavice> Hello.
[02:34] <myname> how to protect my ssh ? i mean only allow people from some ip not for all ip
[02:34] <DianWei> I have found somewhat of a run around wit synaptic though...
[02:34] <ShadowShuriken> ompaul, where would be a good place to start learning perl/python...and which is easier?
[02:34] <ZeXr0> I'll see if I can have some info about sata
[02:34] <signature16> jowi:  it numberpad doesnt work with the blue fn key
[02:34] <xavice> Did you try "man ssh?" Maybe it will hint you on something/
[02:35] <kspath> myname: tcp wrappers / firestarter?
[02:35] <ompaul> ShadowShuriken, a loaded question, i think python is, and there is a book with ubuntu called "dive into python"
[02:35] <kspath> myname: fail2ban
[02:35] <Jimbob> this is exactly what i did, i was trying to install ubuntu, but found out it doesnt support my sataII controller, so i plug my harddrive that was on sataII to a sataI controller then installed ubuntu on a different partition. now when i try to boot windows, i have to plug it back into the sataIi controller otherwise it wont boot
[02:35] <myname> kspath : dont understand what u mean
[02:35] <Jowi> myname: in /etc/hosts.allow: sshd: 96.48.15. (would make any host on the 96.48.15 network able to log in)
[02:35] <DianWei> It says it will remove ubuntu-desktop, am I in peril?
[02:35] <ShadowShuriken> ompaul, if i put in dive into python...it should work?
[02:35] <myname> ?
[02:35] <kspath> myname: hosts.allow hosts.deny   and apt-cache search firestarter and apt-cache search fail2ban
[02:35] <myname> did i need to edit config ?
[02:35] <Smirnoff> Can anyone offer assistance in tackleling drivers for a couple of unknown drivers in device manager?
[02:36] <myname> i c
[02:36] <myname> ty ty
[02:36] <Jowi> signature16: then i do not know. it works on my wifes laptop like that
[02:36] <kspath> myname: You need to study/learn/read about tcp wrappers and other things.
[02:36] <Jimbob> so does anyone know what i can do to make windows bootable on my sata1 controller?
[02:37] <ompaul> ShadowShuriken, you can read it, after that it is up to you, >sudo apt-get install diveintopython< should work
[02:37] <xavice> !perl
[02:37] <ubotu> xavice: Wish I knew. Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/
[02:37] <xavice> :\
[02:37] <DianWei> My understanding is that ubuntu-desktop is just a package that depends on a lot of other packages so it is an intelligent way to get a lot of important software easily but it is safely removed later if one doesn't want everything. Am I correct?
[02:37] <ShadowShuriken> ompaul, aptitude isnt able to install php4-mysql and phpmyadmin :S
[02:37] <DianWei> Everything else it depended on should still update fine, correct?
[02:37] <Jowi> DianWei: correct
[02:38] <ompaul> DianWei, the first part yes, the second part no, and thus the assumption is wrong ;-)
[02:38] <Jimbob> anyone?
[02:38] <disinterested_pe> is theres any players that will play wma formats?
[02:38] <ZeXr0> Jimbob sorry I didn't find anything about changing the disk on a sata controller :S
[02:38] <corey> anyone direct me on how to set the default video/audio player?
[02:38] <xavice> Uh..
[02:38] <Jowi> DianWei: appart from if you do a dist-upgrade
[02:38] <xavice> MPlayer
[02:38] <ompaul> DianWei, my error sorry
[02:38] <Jimbob> its ok zerxr0
[02:38] <xavice> disinterested_pe: MPlayer
[02:38] <crimsun> disinterested_pe: possibly mplayer.
[02:38] <ompaul> DianWei, that is the only thing it may cause you problems with
[02:38] <xavice> disinterested_pe: $ sudo apt-get install mplayer
[02:38] <Jimbob> do you have experience messing around with boot.ini zexr0?
[02:38] <disinterested_pe> do u know what plug in option does?
[02:38] <Abo> any one knows of a nice GUI FTP client?
[02:39] <DianWei> Ok, cool it didn't lock up in this update. I am running the beta by the way so I don't think I'll need to run dist-upgrade. :3
[02:39] <ompaul> !tell ShadowShuriken about universe
[02:39] <Jowi> DianWei: if you ever want to do a dist-upgrade it is good to reinstall the ubuntu-desktop package
[02:39] <xavice> disint. : I don't understand you.
[02:39] <disinterested_pe> ok never mind
[02:39] <ompaul> ShadowShuriken, you can then search for all applications in Synaptic and life will be fun
[02:39] <DianWei> I'll probably need to though 6 months from now give or take?
[02:39] <xavice> !tell xavice about universe
[02:40] <xavice> Lol.
[02:40] <DianWei> Well, in any case, Thanks guys. Have a good 'un.
[02:40] <ompaul> DianWei, if you leave in it until Next thursday you can install dapper and leave it out for 3 years ;-
[02:40] <Abo> !tell Abo about universe
[02:40] <ompaul> DianWei, ;-)
[02:40] <xavice> !tell Abo about universe
[02:40] <lime4by4> using the command line how do u create a user and password for mysql?
[02:40] <dli> DianWei, dist-upgrade should be safe, if you met any dependency problem, just ask here

[02:40] <andrejkw> I can't get my sound working with Doom 3 for some reason. Can anyone help me?
[02:41] <Abo> Jowi, thnx I'll try it right away
[02:41] <xavice> Lol
[02:41] <ompaul> Abo ^^^^^ up a few lines xavice the same there look up the screen
[02:41] <xavice> I can hardly play UT2005 on ubuntu
[02:41] <icefeldt> hey
[02:41] <andrejkw> xavice: UT2004 maybe?
[02:41] <xavice> Er.
[02:41] <icefeldt> have a small problem here
[02:41] <xavice> Er.
[02:41] <xavice> 2004
[02:41] <xavice> Yea.
[02:41] <Jowi> lol
[02:42] <andrejkw> lol
[02:42] <xavice> lol
[02:42] <andrejkw> I can't get my sound working with Doom 3 for some reason. Can anyone help me?
[02:42] <ompaul> !enter
[02:42] <ubotu> Please don't use the "enter" key as punctuation! It spams the channel and is annoying.
[02:42] <xavice> Did you install ALSA drivers?
[02:42] <andrejkw> Yes...
[02:42] <icefeldt> i installed a programm (cpuspeedy) with "make install". now i want do remove it. But how? (installed linux today)
[02:42] <xavice> Hm.
[02:42] <xavice> Sound drivers perhaps?
[02:43] <andrejkw> icefeldt: next time use "sudo checkinstall"
[02:43] <icefeldt> ? why? what does that command do?
[02:43] <andrejkw> icefeldt: creates a nice package for you and installs it, so later on you can remove it using package manager.
[02:43] <Jowi> icefeldt: i agree with andrejkw . checkinstall is great
[02:43] <icefeldt> oksx
[02:43] <Abo> is there any tool similar to "Google Desktop" for ubuntu?
[02:43] <icefeldt> okay
[02:43] <Jowi> !checkinstall
[02:43] <ubotu> somebody said checkinstall was http://wiki.ubuntu.com/CheckInstall
[02:43] <icefeldt> now i know
[02:43] <icefeldt> but what shall i do now?
[02:43] <LinuxJones> andrejkw, try killall esd then start doom3
[02:44] <ompaul> icefeldt,  do it by hand :-(
[02:44] <dli> icefeldt, hopefully, you can "make uninstall"
[02:44] <Jowi> icefeldt: remove by hand.
[02:44] <andrejkw> icefeldr: if you still have it unpacked and compiled u can still run checkinstall in the directory have it overwite all your files and then simply remove it.
[02:44] <ompaul> andrejkw, nice one
[02:44] <xavice> Does anyone know of any fun free and native Linux games?
[02:44] <Jowi> nice save andrejkw
[02:44] <RandolphCarter> xavice: neverball :)
[02:44] <andrejkw> still no sound in doom3 :'(
[02:44] <dli> xavice, fun and free, or "fun free"?
[02:44] <andrejkw> This is driving me nuts, I tried everything.
[02:44] <hcatlin> Is there a nice way to replicate packages onto a new system?
[02:45] <xavice> fun AND free
[02:45] <xavice> Eh
[02:45] <Healot> xavice: a lot, what type of game?
[02:45] <ompaul> xavice, read the message from the bot then search for games
[02:45] <xavice> I'd prefer RPGish
[02:45] <hcatlin> Like, I don't need data mirrored, just packages.
[02:45] <xavice> !gamess
[02:45] <ubotu> xavice: Not a clue. Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/
[02:45] <xavice> !games
[02:45] <ubotu> somebody said games was http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=5153 or http://www.icculus.org/lgfaq/gamelist.php and http://wiki.linuxquestions.org/wiki/Loki_Installers_for_Linux_Gamers  News http://www.linux-gamers.net/
[02:45] <RandolphCarter> xavice: there's _always_ nethack
[02:45] <xavice> Yea..
[02:45] <dli> hcatlin, do you want to copy an installation to another machine?
[02:45] <xavice> But.
[02:45] <icefeldt> make uninstall doesnt work
[02:45] <xavice> I got bored of that.
[02:45] <george_> does anyone know of a player to play .wmv files?
[02:45] <icefeldt> teher comes an error message
[02:45] <xavice> george_: Mplayer
[02:45] <RandolphCarter> hmm :( if only ADOM was free.. :/
[02:45] <dli> icefeldt, follow the checkinstall way
[02:45] <hcatlin> dli: Basically. I have a production environment setup with like 200 packages that need to be installed beyond the base installation.
[02:45] <xavice> george_: sudo apt-get install mplayer
[02:46] <RandolphCarter> xavice: you could install scummvm and beneath-a-steel-sky, best point and click I ever played
[02:46] <Jowi> xavice: glob2 is a very different and nice realtime strategy game
[02:46] <hcatlin> dli: So, I just want to be able to have a script to automate taking those 200 and installing them on any new computer.
[02:46] <ompaul> xavice, you need to stop hitting enter after ever one word entry onscreen when your replying to people, thanks
[02:46] <andrejkw> So... anyone has a solution to my Doom 3 dillema?
[02:46] <george_> thanx xavice
[02:46] <xavice> ompaul: Thanks, but I've already enabled universe and multiverse
[02:46] <xavice> lol
[02:46] <Duriel> hi
[02:46] <LinuxJones> andrejkw, killall esd didn't work ?
[02:46] <RandolphCarter> andrejkw: Doom 3 requires OSS in the kernel
[02:47] <RandolphCarter> if there's isn't an OSS driver, or you're not running ALSA OOS compataiblity, you're OOL
[02:47] <andrejkw> Man, this is nuts, I am beginning to hate Gnome. I never had problems like this with KDE.
[02:47] <ompaul> xavice, please don't hit enter after a one word line, and in a terminal you can type apt-cache search game | less and read them all :-)
[02:47] <andrejkw> I am running everything, I forced the game to use OSS, still no sound.
[02:47] <dli> hcatlin, I think you can "cp -a" for a few boxes, however, if you want really automatic installation, you may read more about the FAI project for debian
[02:47] <th1> andrejkw, gnome is a bit weird :)
[02:47] <andrejkw> I have AOSS working correctly with other programs.
[02:47] <th1> I would stick with KDE if I was you :)
[02:48] <RandolphCarter> hmm :/ if you've got that, I'm not sure then, I doubt Gnome could cause this though
[02:48] <Jowi> andrejkw: just a thing... are you running esd? you can try to kill it
[02:48] <xavice> I'm sorry for hitting enter. It's a habit. And thainks.
[02:48] <hcatlin> dli: Thanks, I'll check it out.
[02:48] <ompaul> np
[02:48] <andrejkw> thl: KDE seems a bit sluggish and how would I say this... packed with way too many features, without absolutely any balance.
[02:48] <andrejkw> Jowi: nope, did killall esd
[02:48] <ompaul> andrejkw, said like j dub
[02:49] <andrejkw> omplaul: huh?
[02:49] <Jowi> andrejkw: and did you set up alsa (or oss) as your output sink?
[02:49] <xavice> I agree with adrejkw, KDE comes with TOO much stuff. For example I used to have 3-5 PDF viewers.
[02:49] <icefeldt> guys? whats the command fo deleting a file?
[02:49] <ompaul> andrejkw, your not the only one to not go for kde in particular ;-) that is all
[02:49] <xavice> ice: rm
[02:49] <icefeldt> kk thx
[02:49] <andrejkw> Jowi: ok, now you're getting a bit technical, umm, sink? You mean the one I wash my hands in?
[02:49] <xavice> ice: e.g. rm ogmomogomgomgvirus.sh
[02:50] <Jowi> !tell icefeldt about commands
[02:50] <cyphase> is there a .deb for Truecrypt on Dapper?
[02:50] <Abo> I want to install yahoo messenger, I downloaded the .deb file, and did dpkg -i ymes.., but it fails saying it depends on other library, is there a way I can get apt-get to go download and install all needed libraries without failing?
[02:50] <xavice> Can anyone tell me what's so great about Dapper? Features ect.
[02:50] <Jowi> andrejkw: i think the settings are in System -> preferences -> multimedia something (not using gnome here)
[02:51] <igorzolnikov> what is App Launcher?
[02:51] <andrejkw> Jowi: pipeline is esdsink
[02:51] <xavice> The name is self explanitory.
[02:51] <cyphase> Abo, is there any reason you want Yahoo Messenger instead of Gaim?
[02:51] <xavice> It's something at launchs an application
[02:51] <igorzolnikov> How i can start CPU/Mem monitor
[02:51] <igorzolnikov> ?
[02:51] <biovore> xavice: uses more moemory, looks cooler, has a nicer multimedia backend..
[02:51] <LinuxJones> xavice, alot snappier on the desktop for 1 :)
[02:51] <Jowi> andrejkw: maybe you should change it to alsa or oss or whatever you use now that you have killed esd
[02:51] <Abo> cyphase, I didn't manage to make the sound work on gaim (I didn't search much about that)
[02:52] <Smirnoff> Can anyone offer assistance in how I get to "root" in terminal?
[02:52] <xavice> Wait wait wait... MORE memory?
[02:52] <cyphase> Abo, what sound?
[02:52] <cyphase> Abo, you mean like audio chat?
[02:52] <Abo> cyphase, audio chat
[02:52] <ompaul> !root
[02:52] <ubotu> Direct login as the root user is disabled in Ubuntu. Look at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/RootSudo for all information.
[02:52] <biovore> xavice: more grphics == more memory required..
[02:52] <ompaul> Smirnoff, ^^ up a couple of lines
[02:52] <xavice> But GDM is still default right?
[02:52] <nickgarvey> wireless on ubuntu, the bane of my existance...
[02:52] <cyphase> Abo, Gaim doesn't support it yet, but the linux version of yahoo messenger doesn't support it well
[02:52] <Abo> cyphase, and in msn messger there are many features missing in gaim, (or that I coulnt' find)
[02:52] <biovore> for gnome ubunut yes..
[02:52] <xavice> Okay.
[02:53] <xavice> I'll stick with Breezy for know.
[02:53] <xavice> Agh, typos. now*
[02:53] <Abo> cyphase, ok, is there a way I can issue the apt-get command to fetch the missing dependancies without failing?
[02:53] <biovore> dapper is great on newer systems with cpu and memory resources
[02:53] <cyphase> Abo, are you in breezy or dapper?
[02:53] <rab> can someone help me unserstand why when i restart my server, i cant ssh into it until i manually login onit
[02:54] <Abo> cyphase, 5.10 (that is breezy, right?)
[02:54] <icefeldt> guys`?
[02:54] <andrejkw> Jowi: Tried ALSA and OSS, none work.
[02:54] <cyphase> yea
[02:54] <cyphase> rab, are you using network manager?
[02:54] <rab> nvm
[02:54] <andrejkw> I think I'll just jump off of a cliff.
[02:54] <rab> sorry
[02:54] <rab> i was being unpatient
[02:54] <igorzolnikov> How i can start CPU/Mem monitor?
[02:54] <icefeldt> i installed checkinstall. how to use it in the future? (for uninstallation)
[02:54] <Jowi> andrejkw: then i have no clue. that should have done it for most programs
[02:54] <biovore> igorzolnikov: there are a bunch of those..  I use gkrellm
[02:55] <cyphase> Abo, i don't know what the dependencies are, and i don't know if you can apt-get them
[02:55] <cyphase> sorry
[02:55] <Jowi> icefeldt: instead of typing "sudo make install" you type "sudo checkinstall"
[02:55] <andrejkw> icefeldt: "sudo checkinstall" right after make, and then to remove search for the package in synaptic and remove it.
[02:55] <dli> icefeldt, run " sudo checkinstall ", instead of " sudo make install "
[02:55] <Smirnoff> Hey ompaul, !root came up with command not found
[02:55] <cyphase> i haven't used it
[02:55] <biovore> try a apt-get install -f
[02:55] <daryl_> Anyone know a good macro program for Linux, to repeat mouse clicks?
[02:55] <Abo> cyphase, ok, thank for trying to help :)
[02:55] <ompaul> Smirnoff, I will have the bot send you a message it was in the channel
[02:55] <icefeldt> andrejkw:  thx. i didnt know that it goes into synaptics
[02:56] <Jowi> andrejkw: i need some sleep. hope it will sort itself out for you
[02:56] <theine> dli: could one actually do "fakeroot checkinstall" as well?
[02:57] <andrejkw> Jowi: alright, night.

[03:01] <andrejkw> nickgarvey: is it external?
[03:01] <daryl_> theine: ezmacros works great in windows. i'm thinking of just downloading it, and running it thorugh wine
[03:01] <nickgarvey> andrejkw: nope, internal
[03:01] <theine> daryl_: what are those categories you're talking about?
[03:01] <nickgarvey> make uninstall when I was getting ndiswrapper gave me some problems
[03:01] <nickgarvey> I believe thats the issue
[03:01] <dli> igorzolnikov, right click on the gnome panel, "Add to Panel", and select applets
[03:01] <icefeldt> guys now i want to use checkinstall but it gives me an error
[03:01] <nickgarvey> I'm on a live cd, not going to install if it doesn't work
[03:01] <daryl_> theine product categories, in a store on a website.
[03:02] <icefeldt> it says: no rule to create checkinstall
[03:02] <theine> daryl_: can't you just edit a file?
[03:02] <dli> icefeldt, it's "sudo checkinstall", not " sudo make checkinstall"
[03:02] <andrejkw> nickgarvey: you need to pusha  firmware to it.
[03:02] <icefeldt> ah ok
[03:02] <daryl_> theine: i have direct access to the SQL database, but i'm not sure if it would damage dependancies by removing the categories.  and would rather not risk it.
[03:02] <andrejkw> nickgarvey: otherwise it won't work.
[03:03] <ShadowShuriken> !tell ShadowShuriken about Dapper
[03:03] <theine> daryl_: ah, i see
[03:03] <nickgarvey> andrejkw: how might I do that?  I haven't had to do that with any other distros so I am not sure what I'm doing ;)
[03:03] <mlalkaka> how can i determine what ports are being used by a certain program?
[03:03] <dli> nickgarvey, the firmwares are under /lib/firmware/ , cp to your hard drive ( same folder there)
[03:03] <nickgarvey> andrejkw: but, I can't stand yast anymore heh
[03:03] <mlalkaka> or what ports are being used overall?
[03:03] <ompaul> !tell ShadowShuriken about msgthebot
[03:03] <nickgarvey> dli: what do you mean?
[03:03] <theine> daryl_: so you're using some kind of graphical front-end to access the SQL database?
[03:03] <daryl_> theine: yes
[03:03] <xavice> How do I find out which process is assigned to what 'number?' For instance, I want to find out the 'number' for XChat to run a kill # command.
[03:04] <dli> nickgarvey, if you know your hdd partition for / , mount it, and cp the firmwares
[03:04] <andrejkw> nickgarvey: what is your computer brand and model?
[03:04] <nickgarvey> dli: like would the firmware be on my old suse 10.1 install?
[03:04] <tonyyarusso> xavice: pidof xchat or ps aux | grep xchat
[03:04] <nickgarvey> andrejkw: HP Pavilion zv6000
[03:04] <nickgarvey> dli: I see, I'll grab that if ndiswrapper doesn't do it for me ;)
[03:04] <theine> daryl_: which one?
[03:04] <dli> xavice, you maybe try, " pkill -9 xchat "
[03:04] <daryl_> theine: custom interface
[03:05] <xavice> Okay..
[03:05] <xavice> That worked, but what's the -9 argument for?
[03:05] <dli> xavice, " man kill "
[03:05] <andrejkw> nickgarvay: let's talk using PM, too cluttered in here.
[03:07] <daryl_> only 1300 mouseclicks to go... joy.. i'm gone.. see yah folks
[03:07] <zcat[1] > Warning: memory above 0x80000000 doesn't seem to be accessible.
[03:08] <zcat[1] > .. when trying to run wine.. any suggestions?
[03:09] <theine> tonyyarusso: appearently fixing his SQL database
[03:09] <tonyyarusso> theine: ah
[03:10] <Jimbob> i need help on boot.ini
[03:10] <Jimbob> anyone familiar with it?
[03:11] <ompaul> Jimbob, that would be a windows program attachment?
[03:11] <achandra> hello. is there an imbedded movie player for firefox that works well? I used to use mplayer in suse but dont know what it is with ubuntu .
[03:11] <theine> tonyyarusso: i guess he has not been introduced to the joys of unix shells...
[03:11] <CokeNCode>  Couldn't stat source package list http://theli.free.fr ./ Packages (/var/lib/apt/lists/theli.free.fr_packages_breezy_._Packages) - stat (2 No such file or directory)
[03:11] <CokeNCode> could someone help me with that error above
[03:11] <Jimbob> ompaul yes
[03:11] <CokeNCode> my apt-get isn't working
[03:11] <tonyyarusso> theine: Hehe I guess not
[03:11] <simonpca> ++
[03:11] <ompaul> Jimbob, this is a linux channel, please ask in #windows (which does actually exist)
[03:11] <Jimbob> but its somehow related to ubuntu so im asking for help here
[03:12] <Jimbob> ah, cool
[03:12] <Jimbob> thanks
[03:12] <HIHello> HI when I click my mouse scroll button to go down the page it goes back a page???
[03:12] <HIHello> How do I reconfigure?
[03:12] <CokeNCode> my apt-get isn't working
[03:12] <CokeNCode> could someone help me with that error above
[03:13] <tonyyarusso> HIHello: I'm not sure if there's an easy way, but you can look into modifying your xorg.conf...
[03:13] <HIHello> Hmmm how would I do this??
[03:13] <anan_uk> hi all, how can i format my ubuntu 5.10 and all my hard drive to install the new ubuntu 6.06RC version for testing ?
[03:14] <biovore> anan_uk: just install using the 6.06 cd
[03:14] <anan_uk> it detected as non-bootable CD :(
[03:15] <tonyyarusso> HIHello: Manually tweaking a text configuration file.  (I hate to say it but I recommend this be a look-around-and-read moment, b/c you'll get more out of it that way.)  In short, you'll be finding the mouse section, then the line for that button, and describing the behaviour it should have.
[03:15] <tonyyarusso> Do we have an xorg.conf page on the wiki I wonder?
[03:15] <HIHello> OK,I saw something about this,thanks I will check it out!
[03:15] <HIHello> Thank you Tony
[03:15] <tonyyarusso> Good luck.
[03:16] <Shadyman> anan_uk: Did you use a program to burn the image of the cd, as opposed to burning the image file TO the Cd?
[03:16] <igorzolnikov> what cpu/mem monitor is best?
[03:17] <anan_uk> yes, i used GnomeBaker to burn the iso file
[03:17] <Shadyman> anan_uk: Weird.
[03:17] <anan_uk> i burned the alternative iso install one
[03:18] <Kakurady> I cannot install ATI propertiary video driver, can anyone help?
[03:18] <Slayer> Hi
[03:18] <Shadyman> Kakurady: Install xserver-xorg-driver-ati ?
[03:18] <Slayer> why when Ubuntu is loadin
[03:18] <Kakurady> What's that?
[03:18] <Shadyman> Kakurady: The ATI driver.
[03:19] <Slayer> it takes so  much time in Configuring Network interfaces?
[03:19] <Slayer> i saw this in various computers
[03:19] <Shadyman> Slayer: Are you on a laptop?
[03:19] <Slayer> yeah
[03:19] <Shadyman> Slayer: And not plugged into a network cable?
[03:19] <Slayer> is plugged
[03:19] <zelevw> my tv out works but i cant change my resolution to anything other than 1024*768...i added 800x600 to xorg.conf, restart but i still dont have the option to change...centrino-based laptop...i810 video chips
[03:19] <Kakurady> Shadyman: Can it be used for the X1k series?
[03:19] <Slayer> i saw this being plugged
[03:20] <Slayer> in HP laptop and IBM laptop
[03:20] <Shadyman> Slayer: Strange.
[03:20] <Slayer> yeah
[03:20] <Slayer> solution?
[03:20] <Slayer> i saw in 2 compuetrs in diferent networks
[03:20] <Shadyman> Slayer: I know that's a problem if wire isn't plugged in because it tries to auto discover network connections via wirieless
[03:20] <Slayer> ok
[03:20] <icefeldt> hey guys how can i "add a link to the application menu?" dont want to type "sudo gtk-cpuspeedy" every time
[03:21] <Shadyman> Slayer: And at boot, if wireless isn't configured, it doesn't work, so it waits for DHCP to time out
[03:21] <Slayer> i think it takes time to get DHCP
[03:21] <james_xxx> can someone tell me how i can view all of the hardware that ubuntu is recognizing?
[03:21] <Shadyman> Slayer: I think there's a setting in /(something)/DHCP3/something.conf
[03:21] <davebad> Hello everyone.
[03:21] <Slayer> humm
[03:21] <Slayer> i got it
[03:21] <Shadyman> james: Go to System > Administration > Hardware
[03:21] <Shadyman> james: Something about hardware
[03:21] <james_xxx> i am using KDE
[03:22] <davebad> has anyone used Xdmx?
[03:22] <Slayer> both computers have wireles and RJ45
[03:22] <Shadyman> james_xxx: Oh, then I have no idea
[03:22] <Shadyman> Slayer: It's been suggested before to lower the DHCP3 timeout time.
[03:22] <tonyyarusso> icefeldt: Right-click the little Ubuntu icon, "Edit menu", and go to town.
[03:22] <Shadyman> Slayer: But every time someone complains about it taking too long, some people complain it takes too short because some networks don't resolve
[03:22] <james_xxx> does anyone know how to view one's hardware using kubuntu?
[03:22] <achandra> what is good embedded moivie player for firefox in ubuntu ?
[03:23] <Shadyman> Slayer: I think there's a specification listed on launchpad.net somewhere for it, either there or the wiki
[03:23] <Shadyman> Slayer: Maybe it'd help if you added your comments :)
[03:23] <andrejkw> achandra: totem-xine
[03:23] <davebad> achandra: I like mplayer-plugin
[03:23] <Slayer> wait
[03:23] <Slayer> i desactivate wifi
[03:23] <noiesmo> mplayer-plugin here too
[03:24] <Slayer> i will restart to se
[03:24] <Shadyman> Slayer: Ok
[03:24] <davebad> as long as you get the win32 libs
[03:24] <achandra> davebad: in dapper what is required to install it
[03:24] <Kakurady> I cannot install the ATI propertiary video driver (fglrx), can anyone help?
[03:24] <icefeldt> tonyyarusso: thx mate
[03:24] <tonyyarusso> Kakurady: Have you read the wiki instructions for that?
[03:25] <Shadyman> !fglrx
[03:25] <ubotu> rumour has it, fglrx is https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BinaryDriverHowto
[03:25] <Kakurady> Tried. Fakeroot didn't work.
[03:25] <davebad> achandra: just install it using synaptic
[03:25] <phenom> Hello, I am having trouble getting Warcraft 3 to connect to Battle.net in Ubuntu :)
[03:25] <Kakurady> And make failed.
[03:25] <achandra> davebad: that is mplayer and plugin right?
[03:26] <Kakurady> ...Warcraft 3?!
[03:26] <phenom> Using Wine
[03:26] <Shadyman> Kakurady: Yes, he said WC3.
[03:26] <tonyyarusso> Kakurady: Do you have build-essential?  Not sure if you need that...  (just saw make failed)
[03:26] <davebad> achandra: if you do a "sudo apt-get install mozilla-mplayer"
[03:26] <Shadyman> tonyyarusso: Good call
[03:26] <phenom> Can I get some help please?
[03:26] <Shadyman> phenom: Just ask
[03:27] <Shadyman> phenom: Oh, you did. Silly me.
[03:27] <phenom> How do I get Warcraft 3 to connect to the internet using Wine?
[03:27] <Kakurady> Aww, I forgot to download it.
[03:27] <tonyyarusso> phenom: (Preferably with specifics and a pastebin if necessary - do you have more info?)
[03:27] <Shadyman> phenom: I'm not sure how many people here have used wc3 and battlenet, you
[03:27] <Shadyman> phenom: You'd have to see if anyone responds
[03:28] <hosler> I have my own server, but i dont know of any fun stuff to do with it. any ideas?
[03:28] <icefeldt> thx guys and cya !!!!
[03:28] <james_xxx> i am trying to install a linksys wusb54g wireless adapter, and am having problems. this is a card that others have configured to work (i think)
[03:28] <hosler> james_xxx: i would suggest using google to find which driver it needs.
[03:29] <Slayer> ready
[03:29] <Slayer> it was the wifi
[03:29] <james_xxx> hosler, one problem i have is that i do not know which version of the product i have
[03:29] <achandra> davebad: even adding all the source possibilities into apt no mplayer-mozilla...for dapper
[03:29] <agorf> hello! anyone can explain why with mrxvt i have this http://img210.imageshack.us/my.php?image=mrxvt1xb.png and with gnome-terminal i have this: http://img210.imageshack.us/my.php?image=gnometerminal4ok.png while using the same font and size?
[03:29] <hosler> james_xxx, shouldnt really matter. At least i wouldnt think so.
[03:29] <Slayer> what is the command use in ubuntun same ipconfig in windows
[03:29] <Slayer> ifconfig?
[03:29] <Xenguy> yes
[03:29] <hyphenated> james_xxx: open a shell, plug it in and type in 'dmesg | tail'
[03:30] <hosler> james_xxx: what does lspci bring up for the card?
[03:30] <hyphenated> james_xxx: then paste the result of that in a pastebin
[03:30] <james_xxx> hosler, it matters, because different version apparently have different chipsets

[03:31] <davebad> achandra: sorry, watching NHL playoffs

[03:41] <webhed> Hey all. Couple of questions. First, does anyone know if the scsi issue that was present in earlier betas of Dapper has been addressed in the RC that is available now, and second, does anyone know if I can just create fat partition on an iPod using gparted? I have a ton of junk files on my iPod I can't delete for some reason and thought I'd just format it and start over.
[03:41] <andrejkw> namaku: iptables
[03:41] <hyphenated> james_xxx: yeah, it doesn't know what driver to use. can you pastebin the output of 'lsusb' ?
[03:42] <Madpilot> achandra, are you in a server install? No GUI?
[03:42] <Olde> bbl
[03:42] <noiesmo> achandra, deb http://au.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ dapper universe multiverse
[03:42] <noiesmo> achandra, replace the http with yours just add universe and multiverse
[03:43] <james_xxx> hyphenated, http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/14706
[03:43] <noiesmo> achandra, or you can add the debian repo but as gnomefreak said earlier it might break your system didnt break mine though
[03:43] <noiesmo> achandra, deb http://www.debian-multimedia.org sid main

[03:44] <gnomefreak> noiesmo: i said dont advise that
[03:44] <webhed> Hey all. Couple of questions.

[03:44] <noiesmo> gnomefreak, he ask i told him get off my back man
[03:45] <gnomefreak>  noiesmo > achandra, deb http://www.debian-multimedia.org sid
[03:45] <gnomefreak>                           main
[03:45] <gnomefreak> ^^^ whats that than?
[03:45] <Madpilot> namaku, are you running a web server on your computer?
[03:45] <hyphenated> james_xxx: it looks like you're going to need ndiswrapper to make these work
[03:45] <noiesmo> gnomefreak, you help him then dont leave him hanging
[03:45] <gnomefreak> i told him how to get mplayer
[03:45] <noiesmo> gnomefreak, i said also or you can add the debian repo but as gnomefreak said earlier it might break your system didnt break mine though
[03:46] <nickgarvey> no friendly fire please ;)
[03:46] <webhed> let me guess... I'm invisible and don't know how to turn it off lol
[03:46] <gnomefreak> and than after you said that you typed what i pasted
[03:46] <james_xxx> hyphenated, hmmm..... according to a forum , version 4 of the wusb54g is supported... but i do not know what version i have
[03:46] <gnomefreak> achandra: enable universe and multiverse repos please
[03:46] <namaku> :(
[03:46] <gnomefreak> ubotu tell achandra about mplayer
[03:47] <Madpilot> webhed, nope, you're visible - but evidently nobody has answers for you right now...
[03:47] <Madpilot> webhed, also, asking just one question at a time might get better results - and the Dapper channel is #ubuntu+1 for questions/problems w/ Dapper
[03:47] <webhed> ok just wanted to make sure. This is my first time using Xchat.
[03:47] <webhed> Thanks for the tips guys.
[03:48] <nickgarvey> webhed: assuming an ipod is treated like a usb drive, then I am pretty sure you could format it with gparted, I see no reason why no
[03:50] <nickgarvey> namaku: perhaps your hosts.allow/deny files
[03:50] <webhed> ok I'll restrict this channel to the ipod question and the other question is now in the ubuntu+1 chan.
[03:50] <namaku> ?
[03:50] <namaku> how
[03:50] <nickgarvey> namaku: although thats a guess, I have never wanted to do that
[03:50] <hyphenated> james_xxx: you have one v2 and one v4 it seems
[03:50] <webhed> Does anyone else know if its ok to just format the iPod?
[03:50] <Madpilot> namaku, I don't think you answered my earlier question: are you running a web server? If not, why worry?
[03:50] <roast> nickgarvey: is Lan on one interface and the outside on another?
