[19:01] <rd> Hi all... Just upgraded to Hardy... and having some troubles with Xgl/Compiz... Could anyone help?
[19:01] <dinesh86> i want help in GRUB
[19:01] <laizerox> !NTFS-3g
[19:01] <ubotu> ntfs-3g is a Linux driver which allows read/write access to NTFS partitions. Installation instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MountingWindowsPartitions
[19:01] <Odd-rationale> benny269: Oh I see! :) then..
[19:01] <RedHeron> ANYONE: How do I find out which of the hundreds of servers a package is coming from so that I can grab a GPG key to authenticate the package?
[19:01] <migm> including streaming?
[19:01] <migm> cool
[19:01] <bcnl> !evolution
[19:01] <Pici> rd: Hardy 'support' in #ubuntu+1
[19:01] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about evolution - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[19:01] <predaeus> !grub | dinesh86
[19:01] <ubotu> dinesh86: grub is the default Ubuntu boot manager. Lost grub after installing windows: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows - Making GRUB floppies & other GRUB howtos: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto
[19:01] <bcnl> migm: how do you want to stream?
[19:01] <rd> Thanks Pici
[19:01] <tyronepolleri> wols_, then why is it not working? i have looked on the forums noone has anything like this
[19:01] <bcnl> like to what clients?
[19:02] <laizerox> pici ty ;)
[19:02] <rd> On my way there...
[19:02] <soundray> differentreality: to eliminate duplicate lines in a file called foo, do 'j="init" ; cat foo | while read i ; do test $i == $j ; j=$i ; done'
[19:02] <soundray> differentreality: sorry, trying again
[19:02] <migm> bcnl: I don't follow, over IP
[19:02] <tyronepolleri> Txukie1982, yeah i am in there
[19:02] <dinesh86> ubotu: nope ! i want to to just the change the order of the menu
[19:02] <soundray> differentreality: to eliminate duplicate lines in a file called foo, do 'j="init" ; cat foo | while read i ; do test $i == $j || echo $i ; j=$i ; done'
[19:02] <wols_> tyronepolleri: as Txukie1982 asked you: what does glxinfo say?
[19:02] <migm> bcnl: How else?
[19:02] <bcnl> migm: IP is just the network protocol
[19:02] <bcnl> do you want to just make the files available over a network share
[19:02] <migm> bcnl: Yes, i'm looking for the software that will allow the streaming
[19:02] <bcnl> do you want to stream as a mpeg
[19:02] <migm> bcnl: No, live yes as mpeg
[19:02] <bcnl> quicktime?
[19:03] <tyronepolleri> wols_, direct rendering: No (If you want to find out why, try setting LIBGL_DEBUG=verbose)
[19:03] <tyronepolleri>  OpenGL renderer string: Mesa GLX Indirect
[19:03] <cvd> any clue?
[19:03] <bcnl> do you want the ability to skip through the stream
[19:03] <soundray> differentreality: if you don't mind your lines being sorted, you can just do 'cat foo | sort | uniq'
[19:03] <bcnl> etc etc
[19:03] <predaeus> dinesh86, ubotu is a bot. There is a text config file where you can change order, but if you mess this up it will prevent you from booting into Ubuntu.
[19:03] <migm> bcnl: Whatever streaming will work.. I'm not aware of the differences between mpeg streaming and others
[19:03] <soundray> differentreality: argh, I take it all back now
[19:03] <differentreality> soundray, hmm i c :)  one question though.. what does j="init" do exactly??
[19:03] <bcnl> ffmpeg-server will allow you to stream out the mpeg without the cost of having a player on the server, or even a gui
[19:03] <migm> bcnl: But if possible.. having it available LIVE is what im looking for
[19:03] <Odd-rationale> benny269: Yes, you need the gparted liveCD: http://gparted.sourceforge.net/ Download, burn image to disk, then boot from it. From there you can edit your partitions in the your harddrives. Just select the linux drive, delete all the partition by selecting them one by one, then create a new ntfs partition.
[19:03] <migm> bcnl: How intensive is it in terms of hardware?
[19:04] <soundray> differentreality: initiates the variable j with a value that is unlikely to be equal to the first line in your file
[19:04] <bcnl> migm: streaming http is "easy" with ffmpeg
[19:04] <bcnl> ffmpeg.sf.net
[19:04] <bcnl> read the docs, it's quite neat
[19:04] <migm> im looking at it now
[19:04] <migm> what about mythtv?
[19:04] <rontana> hello, how do you get rid of compiz without losing the window manager?
[19:04] <migm> hardware intensive?
[19:04] <dinesh86> hey is it menu.lst
[19:04] <migm> this box will be doing nothing but this with a ubuntu install
[19:04] <ivan_> hi, i have to link a comport in my wine dir to ttyUSB0, in my cat /dev/ there is no ttyUSB0 why does dmesg report that?
[19:04] <differentreality> soundray, what if line1 is equal to line 100  ?
[19:04] <bcnl> migm: not very inensive, no
[19:04] <soundray> differentreality: question: do your duplicates always succeed one another? Or do you want to eliminate duplicates, even if there are other lines in between?
[19:04] <dinesh86> predaeus:is it menu.lst file ?
[19:04] <ConstyXIV> is there anything like automator for osx in linux?
[19:05] <migm> bcnl: 512 meg p4 1.8ghz?
[19:05] <migm> radeon AGP card
[19:05] <wols_> bcnl: the encoding can be
[19:05] <laizerox> !ntfs
[19:05] <predaeus> dinesh86, yes, make a backup and be sure of what you change is right before applying anything to your system.
[19:05] <wols_> nullpuppy: will work fine
[19:05] <differentreality> soundray, heh exactly that.. other lines might exist in between
[19:05] <bcnl> migm: more than enough horsepower
[19:05] <ubotu> To view your Windows/Mac partitions see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AutomaticallyMountPartitions - For write access, see !NTFS-3g or !FUSE
[19:05] <bcnl> I used to stream several V4L interfaces on a old PII 700
[19:05] <bcnl> migm: http://ffmpeg.mplayerhq.hu/ffserver-doc.html
[19:05] <soundray> differentreality: does the order of the lines in the output matter?
[19:05] <predaeus> dinesh86, I recommend looking on the web for info if you are not familiar with this type of things.
[19:05] <benny269> Odd-rationale: is there any way to completely reformat the Linux drive (no partitions), ideally from Windows?
[19:06] <differentreality> soundray,  no
[19:06] <Odd-rationale> benny269: yes, the way I just told you ^
[19:06] <dinesh86> ya i made a backup.is just rearrange of lines enough?
[19:06] <migm> bcnl: thank you :)
[19:06] <migm> will look into all of this
[19:06] <differentreality> soundray,  but I don't want thems orted
[19:06] <Odd-rationale> benny269: Sorry, wait.
[19:06] <differentreality> soundray,  *sorted
[19:06] <bcnl> migm: good, now do you know anything about evolution?
[19:06] <bcnl> :P
[19:06] <sake> #Ubuntu-pl
[19:07] <bcnl> Evolution is incredibly slow when connecting to a exchange 2003 server
[19:07] <Odd-rationale> benny269: No, there is no good way to do it from Windows.
[19:07] <bcnl> it's the last hurdle to me converting about 20 of my desktops to ubuntu
[19:07] <migm> bcnl: My biology degree wouldnt be much good without knowing about evolution
[19:07] <migm> :)
[19:07] <bcnl> :P
[19:07] <wols_> bcnl: outlook+wine (seriously)
[19:07] <bcnl> wols_: really?
[19:08] <bcnl> that'd still require a windows install (I do own all the licenses, but I'd like to completely step away from them)
[19:08] <dinesh86> u ther predaeu ?
[19:08] <soundray> differentreality: okay, then you have to go through the file line-by-line, each time checking whether the same line has been issued previously
[19:08] <differentreality> hmm
[19:08] <differentreality> yes :/
[19:08] <wols_> bcnl: wine
[19:08] <laizerox> thanks to anyone who helped me :)
[19:08] <benny269> Odd-rationale: ok is there any other way of doing it without burning software to CD? I want to do it immediately
[19:09] <n215> whats the best GUI web design app for ubuntu ?
[19:09] <Txukie1982> has anyone had problems running wine +wow?? crashes for me after accepting the license
[19:09] <Odd-rationale> benny269: You can create a liveUSB.
[19:09] <Odd-rationale> gparted
[19:10] <wols_> bcnl: http://appdb.winehq.org/objectManager.php?sClass=application&iId=34
[19:10] <bcnl> wols_: Error, IOPL Not enabled
[19:10] <wols_> bcnl: where do you get this error?
[19:10] <Odd-rationale> benny269: wait, actuall, do you still have the Ubuntu LiveCD?
[19:10] <peppo> hm. I'm trying to do "mount -o loop ubuntu-7.10-desktop-i386.iso /mount/point" but it errors out with "mount: Not a directory". can the ISO have been corrupted at download?
[19:10] <bcnl> wols_: when I right clicked on Outlook.exe and chose open with Wine
[19:11] <tyronepolleri> hello my 3d acceleration is not working i have an intel 965 can anyone help me?
[19:11] <Txukie1982> does /mount/point actually exist?
[19:11] <Pici> peppo: '/mount/point' is just an example, you need to provide a real mountpoint to mount to
[19:11] <peppo> Txukie1982, that's just what I wrote here, actual path I used exists on my system. sorry for being unclear :)
[19:11] <Txukie1982> tyronepolleri: have you done what i asked on private
[19:11] <Pici> peppo: like make a folder in /media or similar for it
[19:11] <Odd-rationale> benny269: ?
[19:11] <tyronepolleri> Txukiel1982, yes and i answered allready in the private
[19:11] <zitsep> hi! I've made a file in my home directory with this command: "echo blah >file1.txt" but when i do "ls -l file1.txt" it says that the rights are "-rw-r--r--" how is this possible? I still can write the file. shouldnt it be -rw-rw-r-- ?
[19:12] <ivan_> where is my ttyUSB0 it is not in /dev/ dmesg reports ttyUSB0
[19:12] <dinesh81> i want help from GRUB specialist !
[19:12] <Txukie1982> peppo: it should work if folder /mount/point exists
[19:12] <Txukie1982> tyronepolleri: i dont see your answer
[19:12] <nomic> ping
[19:13] <Txukie1982> tyronepolleri: its ok just paste here the answer
[19:13] <nomic> !ping
[19:13] <ubotu> pong
[19:13] <Odd-rationale> dinesh81: /join #grub
[19:13] <Txukie1982> lol
[19:13] <tyronepolleri> Txukiel1982, (WW) warning, (EE) error, (NI) not implemented, (??) unknown.
[19:13] <tyronepolleri>  (II) Loading extension MIT-SCREEN-SAVER
[19:13] <scales> anyone suggest a good aim voice/video chat client for linux?
[19:13] <peppo> Txukie1982, the mount point exists. I just mounted another ISO. I believe this .iso is probably corrupt...
[19:13] <soundray> differentreality: I can't solve that quickly. Perhaps ask in #bash
[19:14] <Flash> hi people!
[19:14] <Flash> is anyone online?
[19:14] <Flash> i need some help
[19:14] <soundray> Flash: no

[19:14] <Flash> ok bro
[19:14] <Flash> :))
[19:14] <soundray> yeah sis
[19:14] <wols_> !enter | flash
[19:14] <Txukie1982> peppo: maybe then i dont know if there is a checksum try using it
[19:14] <ubotu> flash: Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation!
[19:14] <differentreality> soundray,  yes.. tnx anyway :))
[19:15] <Txukie1982> tyronepolleri: ok so no errors there
[19:15] <Txukie1982> tyronepolleri: you running gutsy?
[19:15] <peppo> Txukie1982, it was downloaded as ASCII I believe
[19:15] <zitsep> help me pls with this: i did "echo blah >text.txt" then "ls -l text.txt" and it says i cannot write the file "-rw-r--r--" how could it be? I just writed it and i can edit it with editor and save despite of this...
[19:15] <tyronepolleri> Txukiel1982, yes
[19:15] <Flash> does anyone know how to solve a SATA hdd recognition problem?
[19:15] <dinesh86> thanx odd-rationale
[19:15] <Txukie1982> peppo: ftp?
[19:15] <compengi> i got a little problem mounting a floppy drive, it has a very important file, that's why i'm struggling to get it. well the floppy first got mounted the file appeared but i couldn't copy it. i removed the floppy then inserted again the file was gone but in the disk size, i can see the file size still there. any idea how to get it?
[19:15] <peppo> Txukie1982, yup. gftp sucks :/
[19:15] <Odd-rationale> dinesh86: np
[19:15] <Txukie1982> tyronepolleri: and do you have the 3D effects and stuff? the eye candy?
[19:16] <soundray> zitsep: it's not saying that you can't write the file
[19:16] <Roland123> hi. i'm trying to connect to a nfs share on another ubuntu machine, but during mounting i get an error: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on... etc. i cannot figure out what the problem is
[19:16] <sint> hey, i was away for one week. now i'm back and i've started my laptop and its running on half of the usual speed. the cpu is running on 1,2ghz instead of 2ghz all the time. anyone know what i can do!?
[19:16] <zitsep> soundray: oh really? so it's not 1. root 2. user 3. group?
[19:16] <tyronepolleri> Txukiel1982, yes i have compiz working with emerald i turn them off to run the games but they still don;t work
[19:17] <Txukie1982> tyronepolleri: do you use glx or aiglx?
[19:17] <soundray> zitsep: no, it's user-group-world.
[19:17] <ZeroZiat> Helloes people, I have probby with Wine, they told me to come here, the problem is wine freezes when I run it and no input is accepted anymore until a cold-reboot. Any ideas?
[19:17] <tyronepolleri> Txukiel1982, but to make them work i had to ignore my video card from a blacklist somewhere i don't remeber well
[19:17] <zitsep> soundray: ah! ok thank you very much!
[19:17] <zitsep> bye!
[19:17] <tyronepolleri> Txukiel1982, i don't know i think glx but i am not sure
[19:18] <Flash> does anyone know how to solve a SATA hdd recognition problem? kernel panic fs type unknown....
[19:18] <Txukie1982> glx is pretty crap with other apps
[19:18] <Txukie1982> what does the games say when u try to run them tyronepolleri?
[19:18] <Neophos> Is there a list over recommended graphics cards to use with Ubuntu somewhere I can check for reference?
[19:18] <tyronepolleri> Txukiel1982, how can i che which one i am using
[19:18] <Txukie1982> Neophos: anything with the word nvidia on it ;)
[19:19] <compengi> Seveas, hi
[19:19] <Neophos> Txukie1982: Heh, thanks, I'll try one of those then
[19:19] <Roland123> does anyone have experience with NFS shares?
[19:19] <soundray> Neophos: Intel has the best open source support.
[19:19] <Txukie1982> tyronepolleri: $ cat /var/log/Xorg.0.log |grep -i glx
[19:20] <soundray> !nfs | Roland123
[19:20] <ubotu> Roland123: nfs is the network file system. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SettingUpNFSHowTo for information on installing and configuring NFS.
[19:20] <Flash> does anyone know how to solve a SATA hdd recognition problem? kernel panic fs type unknown....
[19:20] <arvin_> hi...is there anyway to install internet explorer through wine?
[19:20] <soundray> Roland123: read this ^^ and then as specifically
[19:20] <Txukie1982> arvin_: ies4linux
[19:20] <ZeroZiat> Helloes people, I have probby with Wine, they told me to come here, the problem is wine freezes when I run it and no input is accepted anymore until a cold-reboot. Any ideas?
[19:20] <Txukie1982> arvin_: google that
[19:20] <tyronepolleri> Txukiel1982,http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/2612/ that gives me the game
[19:20] <soundray> Flash: it's not a HDD recognition problem
[19:21] <Txukie1982> ZeroZiat: what app you running?
[19:21] <ConstyXIV> arvin_, ies4linux
[19:21] <Flash> soundray: Than what is it bro? i`m stuck for like 3 days... no ideea what to do
[19:21] <soundray> Flash: if Linux can determine that there is a file system (even if it's unknown), then it can read the HDD
[19:21] <tyronepolleri> Txukiel1982, now i am sure i have glx
[19:21] <soundray> Flash: when/where do you get this message?
[19:21] <ZeroZiat> Txukie1982: Well, it's dwarfort.exe, Dwarf Fortress, a game, in the page it says it runs perfect with Wine, there was this time I was using wine with it, Wine crashed and then it didn't work anymore even installing and reinstalling from Add/Remove.
[19:22] <Flash> soundray: when I try to boot the system.
[19:22] <soundray> Flash: can you boot from a live CD?
[19:22] <tyronepolleri> Txukiel1982, and this is what i got from cat /var... http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/2613/
[19:22] <Flash> soundray: yes
[19:22] <Txukie1982> tyronepolleri: well that is probably the problem
[19:22] <soundray> Flash: can you mount the root filesystem when you're on the live CD?
[19:23] <Flash> soundray: yes
[19:23] <Txukie1982> tyronepolleri: even if you disconnect compiz and start emerald instead
[19:23] <Neophos> Is there any known problems for an ATI Radeon to use with Ubuntu?
[19:23] <Txukie1982> tyronepolleri: glx is gonna be there on the way
[19:23] <soundray> Flash: can you pastebin your /boot/grub/menu.lst pls
[19:23] <Txukie1982> Neophos: i have one and hate it
[19:23] <ConstyXIV> Neophos, model numbers help
[19:23] <riotkittie> Neophos: depends on the specific card, i'd guess.
[19:23] <soundray> Flash: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org and give me the URL please
[19:23] <tyronepolleri> Txukiel1982, so what can i do i don't get you.
[19:23] <ptn107> cvd: im still working on it i think i found the problem, fixing it sucks though
[19:23] <Neophos> Ah, sorry, intergrated X1250
[19:23] <Txukie1982> tyronepolleri: i think your card should work with AIGLX
[19:24] <cvd> oh ok thanks
[19:24] <tyronepolleri> Txukiel1982, how can i change is it in the repositories?
[19:24] <Txukie1982> which is fairly better than GLX
[19:24] <truz_`24> can sdparm show me if a sata drive is in UMDA mode?
[19:24] <benny269> Odd-rationale: yes I do still have the Ubuntu LiveCD, can I use that?
[19:24] <Flash> soundray: can u give me a link to the tux tool to read my ext3 without having to reboot?
[19:24] <kazol_> My system crashed and displayed the login prompt several times and once fully crashed with the keyboard lights blinking-how do I determine what went wrong?
[19:24] <soundray> Flash: oh, you're in Windows now?
[19:25] <Txukie1982> tyronepolleri: i dont know the whole procedure but should be fairly easy to find on the net
[19:25] <Flash> soundray: yes... unfortunately :(
[19:25] <ZeroZiat> Txukie1982: Did my last answer to you get to you?
[19:25] <tyronepolleri> Txukiel1982, did you see the http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/2613/
[19:25] <ptn107> cvd: whats going on is that the game is assuming that the python libraries are in the same folder that your running the bin file from, so if you run the FretsOnFire.bin from within the folder it works, but if your running the FretsOnFire.bin from your /home/USER/Desktop folder its assuming the libraries are in /home/USER/Desktop
[19:26] <ptn107> cvd: im trying to export LD_LIBRARY_PATH with the proper location, but the games just hanging for me
[19:26] <Txukie1982> tyronepolleri: no, let me check
[19:26] <benny269> Can someone help me format an Ubuntu drive clean so it can be used to backup Windows files (not sure if this means it should be NTFS or FAT32?)
[19:26] <mnemonica> Meh... Well now ./config is working... But when I use make (or sudo make) I get this: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/47715/   What does that mean?
[19:26] <soundray> Flash: let me tell you what I suspect. The kernel in your /boot/grub/menu.lst gets a root= option that points to a wrong partition. I was going to suggest replacing root=/dev/sdX in the #kopt line with a UUID. I think this would best be done from a live CD.
[19:26] <ChrisZaun> When I burn a DVD using gnomebaker it wont play on my Home dvd player ...player accepts dvd-r
[19:27] <Txukie1982> tyronepolleri: you load GLX module and AIGLX which is included in xorg
[19:27] <cvd> the problem is the game or linux?
[19:27] <tyronepolleri> Txukiel1982, what does that mean?
[19:27] <soundray> Flash: you can try mounting it with ext2fsd of course, but I think you will have to reboot Windows anyway.
[19:27] <Txukie1982> tyronepolleri: do not load the glx module in xorg.conf
[19:27] <tyronepolleri> Txukiel1982, i am sorry but i don't know how to that can you tell me please
[19:27] <ptn107> cvd: game, its just not designed to run from a shortcut because that messes with the path of the files it needs
[19:27] <soundray> Flash: sorry I can't hold your hand through it, but I'm sure you'll find someone else to help you.
[19:28] <cvd> all this problem for just a 'shortcut'
[19:28] <cvd> oh ok
[19:28] <Flash> soundray: lookhttp://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/47717/
[19:28] <Flash> soundray:  look http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/47717/
[19:28] <kazol_> My system crashed and displayed the login prompt several times and once fully crashed with the keyboard lights blinking-how do I determine what went wrong?
[19:28] <Flash> soundray: I used a tool to get the file... and my sda4 is the drive i use...
[19:28] <Flash> soundray:  sorry it took so long :P
[19:29] <SuicideSalmon> does anyone know how to mix the devilspie transparent background with the xscreensaver matrix screensaver background?
[19:29] <gordonjcp> SuicideSalmon: mix in what way?
[19:30] <mnemonica> Anyone?
[19:30] <CaBlGuY> !cinalerra
[19:30] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about cinalerra - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[19:30] <gordonjcp> !cinelerra
[19:30] <ubotu> cinelerra is a video editor and compositor. Install instructions can be found on http://cvs.cinelerra.org/getting_cinelerra.php#ubuntu
[19:30] <soundray> Flash: try this one instead (sda4 replaced with the uuid): http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/47718/
[19:30] <CaBlGuY> thanks gordonjcp
[19:30] <soundray> Flash: good luck, have to go shopping before closing time.
[19:30] <Flash> soundray:  i think it was this way before and didn`t work
[19:31] <SuicideSalmon> gordonjcp, I want the matrix screensaver background (which I've got running), and I then want the terminal on top of that. At the minute, I've got the matrix working, and when I open the terminal it's on top of the nautilus desktop (which it opens in its own window)
[19:31] <soundray> Flash: does recovery mode work?
[19:31] <Flash> soundray: nope... nothing :(
[19:31] <Flash> soundray: can u give me a mail or something so we can talk later then?
[19:32] <soundray> Flash: okay, then you have to run blkid from a live CD and fill in the correct UUID for your root fs
[19:32] <pdlnhrd> what is the easiest way to deterimine the version you are running from the command line?
[19:32] <soundray> Flash: I'll stay logged on and will ping you when I'm back.
[19:32] <Flash> soundray: don`t know how to :(
[19:32] <mnemonica> repeat: Meh... Well now ./config is working... But when I use make (or sudo make) I get this: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/47715/   What does that mean? Anyone?
[19:32] <ZeroZiat> I guess I have no other thing to do...
[19:32] <ZeroZiat> Txukie1982: Well, it's dwarfort.exe, Dwarf Fortress, a game, in the page it says it runs perfect with Wine, there was this time I was using wine with it, Wine crashed and then it didn't work anymore even installing and reinstalling from Add/Remove.
[19:32] <soundray> Flash: running blkid in a terminal will tell you all the UUIDs of all filesystems
[19:33] <soundray> Flash: really need to leave now. See you later
[19:33] <Flash> soundray: oh ok then :D
[19:34] <Flash> soundray: i`ll try it bro... cheers and nice shopping :P

[19:36] <Pici> pdlnhrd: not without going through 7.04
[19:36] <unop> oui, il n'y a pas ici personne qui parle le francais
[19:36] <remote_matrix> Q. Does anyone know how i can turn on my CPU fan to always on?

[19:38] <ptn107> cvd: ok I got the game to change paths but it keeps freezing my x session, you can try as well and see if yours runs or freezes,  the shortcut should be      export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/home/phil/FretsOnFire/ && /home/phil/FretsOnFire/FretsOnFire.bin LD_LIBRARY_PATH          if your session freezes just CTRL+ALT+BACKSPACE to restart it

[19:38] <sebrock_> when I want to check my CPU usage is generally use "top". However, I have a core 2 duo. First it says Cpu(s): 25% and lower it lists all active applications. Ans CPU usage is always double there. which one should I look at
[19:39] <sebrock_> got SMP kenerel
[19:39] <ptn107>  cvd: change your folder to point to where you installed the game
[19:39] <rmaj> ubuntu failed me again
[19:39] <wols_> tyronepolleri: in the Module section   a Load "glx"
[19:39] <unop> pici, hey, its a valid domainname with a good cause .. :)
[19:39] <acee1235> i just installed kubuntu 7.10 enables repositories updated and my sound died i tried the kubuntu channel but no one could help other than telling me formatting is not the answer
[19:39] <wols_> !fail rmaj
[19:39] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about fail rmaj - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[19:39] <Pici> unop: That sort of language is not welcome here.
[19:39] <pdlnhrd> why can't i apt-get upgrade && apt-get dist-upgrade from 6.10 to 7.4  ?
[19:39] <cvd> can i create a luncher to run an alias in the terminal?
[19:39] <rmaj> wols_: ubuntu takes too long to shut the fuck down
[19:39] <Pici> pdlnhrd: Because that upgrade path is not supported.
[19:39] <unop> pici .. i didnt create the hostname
[19:39] <Pici> !ohmy | rmaj
[19:39] <ubotu> rmaj: Please watch your language and topic to help keep this channel family friendly.
[19:40] <pdlnhrd> Pici:  what is the best path?
[19:40] <unop> pici ... so i cant obviously apologise for what it is called
[19:40] <ActySofts> ok, so I thought I'd check to see how KDE runs here, I didn't really like it (too used to Gnome to switch now), and I want to get rid of it, but....I have about 200 packages to remove one by one, isn't there an easier way?
[19:40] <Pici> unop: You dont even need to mention it.
[19:40] <rmaj> if user presses power button 82423 times, then he probably wants like "the f*** turn the **** down already, before my UPS dies", but nooo, why implement this
[19:40] <Pici> pdlnhrd: Sorry, I misread
[19:40] <tyronepolleri> wols_, i can't find the module section where is it?
[19:40] <RedHeron> Following https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Kernel/Compile to the letter, I am failing to be able to recompile.
[19:40] <n215> smoke crack
[19:40] <crweb> rmaj: try holding the button down.
[19:41] <Pici> rmaj: censoring yourself doesnt fool anyone here. Theres no need to use that sort of language at all.
[19:41] <Pici> !upgrade | pdlnhrd
[19:41] <ubotu> pdlnhrd: For upgrading, see the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes
[19:41] <rmaj> crweb: wow, that IS better then waiting for UPS to die
[19:41] <ptn107> cvd: you can try
[19:41] <pdlnhrd> Pici:  this is a remote server... i am trying to upgrade... i don't have a gui interface
[19:41] <Pici> pdlnhrd: please read that.
[19:41] <erisco> I am using ubuntu 7.10... when I try to use gnome's logout gui gnome hangs. How can I either A) fix this problem or B) logout using the terminal (I don't want to reboot)
[19:41] <ptn107> cvd: i cant even get a regular file shortcut to run it
[19:41] <Pici> pdlnhrd: Okay, still, read it. There are instructions for doing Server upgrades as well.
[19:41] <ptn107> cvd: id email the developers and ask
[19:41] <cvd> its say something about a child
[19:41] <pdlnhrd> Pici:  i see it thanks
[19:41] <CaBlGuY> whats the command for opening the etc/apt/sources.list file?
[19:41] <crweb> rmaj: connect your UPS usb/serial cable to your pc and use the power tools to autoshut you down like youare suppose to ;)
[19:41] <remote_matrix> Q. Does anyone know how i can turn on my CPU fan to always on?
[19:42] <acee1235> no sound aficionados on ?
[19:42] <rmaj> crweb: I did shutdown -h now   and yet it took tooo long
[19:42] <stillboy> remote: plug it in to the ps :P
[19:42] <RedHeron> ANYONE WHO CAN HELP: Following https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Kernel/Compile to the letter, I am failing to be able to recompile.
[19:42] <remote_matrix> stillboy very cleaver idea
[19:42] <crweb> rmaj: not sure what your problem is then. Maybe a larger UPS, or don't wait so long, or unplug some items from ups
[19:43] <rmaj> there should be something that if it takes longer then 30 sec (or use press button 5 times) then kill -9 all processes,  if it takes over 60 sec or user pressed power button 10 times then  just sync, umount and reboot, and if over 300 sec or 20 times then just shutdown
[19:43] <CaBlGuY> Q: whats the command for opening the etc/apt/sources.list file?
[19:43] <rmaj> crweb: problem: Ubuntu waites too long for processes to gracefully terminate, when Im in a hurry
[19:43] <crweb> rmaj: which would be the same thing as holding down the power button.
[19:43] <rmaj> CaBlGuY: in example  nano file_name  or any other text editor
[19:43] <Pici> rmaj: Perhaps you should be looking at the other terminal windows to see whats taking too long.
[19:44] <jpeach> CaBlGuY: any text editor can open it.
[19:44] <rmaj> CaBlGuY: instead it adds  unmount + sync
[19:44] <rmaj> crweb: ^
[19:44] <crweb> rmaj: you have to unumount + sync, other wise you might aswell hold the power button down
[19:44] <rmaj> crweb: and it tries kill -9
[19:44] <acee1235> after much tinkering open sound works for system sound and sound test but not for amarok or xine any ideas on a fix?
[19:44] <proqesi> !cups
[19:44] <ubotu> Printing in Ubuntu is done with cups. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Printers - https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupportComponentsPrinters - http://linuxprinting.org - Printer sharing: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/NetworkPrintingFromWindows
[19:44] <Pici> rmaj: And doing a hard shutdown is not recommended, uncleanly unmounting your drives is going to lead to issues.
[19:44] <ActySofts> ok, so I thought I'd check to see how KDE runs here, I didn't really like it (too used to Gnome to switch now), and I want to get rid of it, but....I have about 200 packages to remove one by one, isn't there an easier way?
[19:44] <CaBlGuY> rwaj just need to open the text file to edit it..
[19:44] <remote_matrix> so no one knows how to turn on the freakin CPU FAN ?
[19:44] <rmaj> crweb: how I was supposed to do umount + sync  when no monitor
[19:44] <jpeach> CaBlGuY:  However, you will have to be root to save any changes
[19:45] <rmaj> Pici: that is my point O_o
[19:45] <CaBlGuY> jpeach,  yea, kinda knew that..
[19:45] <Pici> remote_matrix: you may be able to echo a 1 to a file in /proc, but you'll need to look for yourself which one.  Probably something in your acpi
[19:45] <CaBlGuY> so it would be sudo whatever..
[19:45] <rmaj> Pici: to allow user to   1) kill all  2) kill -9  3) sync+umount+shutdown   when user keeps pressing power button
[19:45] <macd> I see flash 9r115 in the repos but gutsy still wants to install r48, (which also has the md5 bug) but manually installing http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/multiverse/f/flashplugin-nonfree/flashplugin-nonfree_<IP_ADDRESS>ubuntu2_i386.deb works fine
[19:45] <crweb> rmaj: so.. change the powerbutton script?
[19:45] <remote_matrix> Pici thanks lemmie see which one
[19:45] <tyronepolleri> how can i deactivated GLX to use instead AIGLX in the xorg.conf ?
[19:45] <rmaj> crweb: I guess this is the way to implement this
[19:46] <Pici> CaBlGuY: something like sudo nano /etc/apt/sources.list  or just use the gui in System>administration>software sources
[19:46] <ping> what do you have to do to get videos to work on the internet
[19:46] <jpeach> CaBlGuy: gksu gedit /etc/apt/sources.list
[19:46] <Budda|> How do I make the Cube thing come up?
[19:46] <CaBlGuY> Pici ok, thanks..
[19:46] <crweb> rmaj: don't see to many non-monitor desktop users out there. so yes, i would suspect that having to edit a config would be nessicary.
[19:46] <CaBlGuY> gedit.. HTAT'S IT!C :P
[19:46] <migm> ah dangit.. ubuntu cd is hanging on "local boot scripts" any ideas how to fix?
[19:46] <CaBlGuY> thanks guys..

[19:48] <crweb> rmaj: oh i see what you mean. Yes, that would make it difficult. but you should look into the ups power tools.

[19:49] <crweb> rmaj: you could probably write your own ups shutdown script to take care of most stuff for you.
[19:49] <Box|UK> my graphics card is a tad bad i cant  have a cube effect or any lol
[19:49] <rmaj> crweb: I think it would be cool to implemenet that multiply pressing power butto have effect like sysrq+u etc
[19:49] <Sir-Integra> hey guys, i'm using the grep command "grep -w 'index 1' genmonster.txt
[19:49] <ping> tyrone how do you get the videos on the internet

[19:49] <Sir-Integra> here's the thing, i'll be doing index 2, index 3
[19:49] <rmaj> crweb: but can the ups scripts be executed while system is going down
[19:49] <crweb> rmaj: would be cool, but for the most part, powerbutton is one of those things that can be fought for between OS and bios.
[19:49] <Sir-Integra> i need it to write to the same file, just paste one after another
[19:49] <Sir-Integra> does anyone know how i could do that?
[19:50] <acee1235> <is formatting system
[19:50] <Ganjistus> gnome is working
[19:50] <Pici> rmaj: Perhaps you should decrease the number of services that are running, to make it shut down faster.
[19:50] <Ganjistus> i think it works
[19:50] <Ganjistus> heh
[19:50] <tyronepolleri> crdlb, http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/2614/
[19:50] <rmaj> crweb: perhaps it should be implemented in kernel.. if user keeps prssing power button then execute sysrq instead just calling APIC hook
[19:50] <tyronepolleri> there it is
[19:50] <acee1235> back to windows for now
[19:50] <rmaj> Pici: hmm I need my serers to develop on
[19:50] <crdlb> tyronepolleri: ah, you're using Xgl, uninstall that: sudo apt-get remove xserver-xgl
[19:50] <Pici> rmaj: Right, but perhaps some services (like bluetooth) are running that you dont need.
[19:50] <crweb> rmaj: shutting down is a userspace process..
[19:50] <ping> thanks tyrone you know who this is right
[19:51] <crdlb> tyronepolleri: there's no reason to use that on intel
[19:51] <Pici> rmaj: I think you're asking for trouble if you want to shutdown any other way.
[19:51] <rmaj> Pici: I want to kill -9 all, if regular shutdown takes too long.. its users decission if he presses power button 10 times in a row

[19:52] <Pici> rmaj: personally, no.
[19:52] <pdlnhrd> oops

[20:00] <Budda|> Is there any way to force an update on a driver? My wireless network card doesn't work right in ubuntu: The signal strength stays at around 70%, and it randomly disconnects, and sometimes doesn't connect at all. However, when in windows, it works fine
[20:00] <remote_matrix> redheron what about my bios ?
[20:00] <soundray> Flash: sorry, I think you do have a SATA incompatibility after all
[20:00] <Blinkiz> I need to run a program as a specific group. I know I can use the "sg" command but am looking for a tool where I can specify both the user and group. Like "niklas:users". Is it possible?
[20:00] <mnemonica> Am I asking the wrong question?
[20:00] <bobgill> rmaj: It shold be in the KDE Control Centre, titled Power Management I believe
[20:00] <buddhaboy> hey ikonia: you there?
[20:00] <Sir-Integra> trynow
[20:01] <Sir-Integra> forgot to put it in my public_html dir
[20:01] <Flash> soundray:  is there any way to fix it? :((
[20:01] <odla> how long are the regular releases supported?
[20:01] <remote_matrix> in my bios settings i dont have an option to control the fan or anything.... here is the interesting thing, it turns off right before grub
[20:01] <mace33> It was working great until I remove my .gnome and .gconf directories a while back.
[20:01] <rmaj> bobgill: kde contorll center is broken in KDE
[20:01] <RedHeron> remote_matrix: that's where you can usually check to see if a setting is on or off... then you can start investigating things, tracing it forward through the startup process to see what's turning it off?
[20:01] <Budda|>  Is there any way to force an update on a driver? My wireless network card doesn't work right in ubuntu: The signal strength stays at around 70%, and it randomly disconnects, and sometimes doesn't connect at all. However, when in windows, it works fine
[20:02] <Sir-Integra> magnetron - work for you now?
[20:02] <mace33> They are there now.  But somehow my desktop background resets everytime I login to my desktop.  It's very annoying.
[20:02] <RedHeron> FOR ANYONE WHO CAN HELP: Following https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Kernel/Compile to the letter, I am failing to be able to recompile. I am using Gutsy on an AMD64 and the instructions are WRONG. PLEASE HELP.
[20:02] <remote_matrix> redheron im a bit of a n00b, by bios u mean the main options on the computer CMOS?
[20:02] <RedHeron> remote_matrix: before startup, right.
[20:02] <rmaj> RedHeron: get a real operating system, it seems here mot things are broken
[20:02] <Budda|>  Is there any way to force an update on a driver? My wireless network card doesn't work right in ubuntu: The signal strength stays at around 70%, and it randomly disconnects, and sometimes doesn't connect at all. However, when in windows, it works fine
[20:02] <rmaj> * most
[20:02] <remote_matrix> redheron like i said, there is no option for controlling the fan
[20:03] <RedHeron> rmaj: Ubuntu works fine, but not when the instructions are wrong.
[20:03] <Sir-Integra> Budda| are you using broadcom wireless adapater by any chance?
[20:03] <magnetron> Sir-Integra: you should use a scripting utility, like perl, python or guile. for that syntax, something LISP-similar would suit. Guile is.
[20:03] <Budda|> Sir-Integra: No
[20:03] <CoolSoul> hey guys
[20:03] <RedHeron> remote_matrix: when you first start the computer, is it running?
[20:03] <Sir-Integra> magnetron - i'm useless at coding.. but thanks anyway :/
[20:03] <Budda|> Sir-Integra: DLink
[20:03] <remote_matrix> redheron yes sir, it runs but right before i get to grub it stops running
[20:03] <bobgill> rmaj: sorry, I am not a KDE user, then I wouldn't know :(
[20:04] <Zionad_> Budda: ONe second, i have a program that might help you!
[20:04] <Ganjistus> heh
[20:04] <Budda|> ...
[20:04] <Flash> soundray: u there?
[20:04] <Ganjistus> is there a gui out to map samba shares to /mnt/sharename
[20:04] <Ganjistus> because command lines sux
[20:04] <RedHeron> remote_matrix: sounds like there is an option to turn it off in the CMOS because grub is the first thing to run.
[20:04] <CoolSoul> I got a problem with an Acer Aspire 5050 64 bits. My wifi doesn't work and when I get to the network manager the option to activate the wifi doesn't appear. :(
[20:05] <soundray> Flash: yes, thinking
[20:05] <remote_matrix> redheron there is no option in the CMOS... what should i do?
[20:05] <N`Kr1pt> hi, how can I get 4 virtual desktops instead of the default 2 on ubuntu?
[20:05] <Flash> soundray: let me tell u something else :)
[20:05] <RdWings19> do Ubuntu (Gnome) and Kubuntu have approximately the same level of hardware support?  Which one would be better to try as a live CD to see if my machine is ready for Ubuntu?
[20:05] <soundray> Flash: go on then :)
[20:05] <remote_matrix> redheron what about the fact that there is no file in /proc/acpi/fan
[20:05] <Zionad_> BUdda, You should uninstall NetworkManager, and use WICD
[20:05] <RedHeron> remote_matrix: I would probably go with a reinstall, but back up your /home directory first.
[20:05] <Zionad_> which  you can get by running sudo apt-get install wicd
[20:05] <crweb> RdWings19: they are exactly the same
[20:05] <Flash> soundray: When i first installed Feisty on my system it worked wothout any buggs... after 2 or 3 reboots i got a initramfs error
[20:05] <RdWings19> thanks crweb
[20:05] <crweb> RdWings19: you can even have both installed same time.
[20:06] <Flash> soundray: and it dropped me out into some kind of bash
[20:06] <RdWings19>  i have a Gutsy Kubuntu CD and wanted to try it out without having to burn a Gnome CD
[20:06] <draken> how would i go about connecting a nokia phone as a modem in ubuntu ?
[20:06] <RdWings19> I suppose I could always change later after install, right?
[20:06] <remote_matrix> redheron why would a reinstall help? ive recently installed ubuntu on the system and its doing this i doubt reinstalling would help...
[20:06] <Budda|> Zionad_: "Could not find package"
[20:06] <CoolSoul> I got a problem with an Acer Aspire 5050 64 bits. My wifi doesn't work and when I get to the network manager the option to activate the wifi doesn't appear. :( plz help
[20:06] <crweb> RdWings19: the only difference is you choose which desktop you want to use
[20:06] <RdWings19> OK
[20:06] <Flash> soundray: and after this i kept getting this error no matter what i did...
[20:06] <crweb> RdWings19: you can sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop   after install
[20:06] <soundray> Flash: that will have been the busybox shell
[20:07] <Flash> soundray: yes
[20:07] <RedHeron> remote_matrix: reinstall would tell if Ubuntu wasn't recognizing it, or if something else was happening.
[20:07] <telexicon> What is a good way to create a custom scripted installer? I want to put a special image on some machines using a script.. i just want it to boot from pxe, run the script and shutdown
[20:07] <RdWings19> I'll probably eventually settle on gnome, but just wanted to test for hardware compatibility
[20:07] <Zionad_> sec*
[20:07] <Lunar_Lamp> CoolSoul, you'll need to find out what your wireless card chipset is most likely.
[20:07] <Zionad_> *
[20:07] <Flash> soundray: still a bit noobish here pall but working on it :D
[20:07] <RdWings19> what do most people in this channel use... gnome, or kde?

[20:07] <differentreality> if i have a line that says<EMAIL_ADDRESS>   how can I delete Else:  ??
[20:07] <jzanchi> I am having trouble with suspend and hibernate data corruption using kubuntu gutsy
[20:07] <soundray> Flash: okay, if your system went from working to non-working, there is definitely something strange going on
[20:07] <r3m0t> RdWings19: how are we to tell without a massive collective vote?
[20:08] <RedHeron> differentreality: depends on where Else: is.
[20:08] <remote_matrix> crap
[20:08] <Flash> soundray:  my friends all sait man take another distro or something but I`m like... no guys i love ubuntu
[20:08] <remote_matrix> there has to be another way of doing that
[20:08] <RdWings19> just wondering if people had some idea based on the traffic in the channel
[20:08] <RedHeron> remote_matrix: there probably is (kernel recompile, etc.) but I've only been using Ubuntu for a month.
[20:08] <Flash> soundray: my system is an Acer Aspire 5520G
[20:08] <differentreality> RedHeron, it's the last thing of a line in text file.. (not all lines though have it)

[20:09] <Flash> soundray:  and the HDD is a Toshiba SATA drive 160 gig
[20:09] <soundray> Flash: could it be a hardware issue?
[20:09] <draken> how would i go about connecting a nokia phone as a modem in ubuntu ?
[20:09] <Budda|> Zionad_: ....?
[20:09] <remote_matrix> soundray: are u ther?
[20:09] <CoolSoul> Flash: you got an atheros wireless card like me
[20:09] <CoolSoul> ?
[20:09] <Flash> CoolSoul: yeah man :)
[20:09] <r3m0t> RdWings19: probably ubuntu>kubuntu, just like everywhere else
[20:09] <CoolSoul> Flash: does it work?
[20:09] <RedHeron> differentreality: text editor?
[20:09] <RedHeron> remote_matrix: AMD64 with an nVidia chipset.
[20:10] <differentreality> RedHeron, i want to write a script that does that
[20:10] <rednul> could someone help me with firehol ?  I am trying to allow the upnp service but seem to have problems with firehol blocking the multicast traffic
[20:10] <remote_matrix> soundray: i need ur help badly regarding the issue we talked 2 days ago (CPU fan not turning on)
[20:10] <Flash> soundray: I don`t think so... because i seem to be running win xp on it nicely...

[20:10] <RedHeron> differentreality: sorry, scripting is not something I do.
[20:10] <remote_matrix> redheron crap, im running it on my dv1650 laptop
[20:10] <CoolSoul> Flash: by the way, does the ndiswrapper asks you a firmware?
[20:10] <Flash> CoolSoul: but that is the leest of my problems...
[20:11] <RedHeron> remote_matrix: it may be that the fan is not listed but other things are.
[20:11] <Flash> CoolSoul: dunno... i can`t boot up my system :))))
[20:11] <RedHeron> remote_matrix: it may be that the fan is part of another piece of hardware.
[20:11] <remote_matrix> hmmm
[20:11] <soundray> CoolSoul: but you had it up and running with feisty and also with a gutsy CD...
[20:11] <CoolSoul> flash: wow, 32 or 64 bits?
[20:11] <remote_matrix> redheron here is a question

[20:12] <MasterShrek_> remote_matrix: sudo rmmod thermal
[20:12] <Flash> peter77: don`t think so...

[20:12] <soundray> peter77: no, there's a kernel error about not finding a filesystem

[20:12] <kharloss> I'm still testing my website and and I want to put a .htaccess file on there to allow some ip-addresses to go to the website, and to deny others.
[20:12] <kharloss> How can I do this?
[20:12] <remote_matrix> mastershrek and to load it back sir?
[20:12] <adelie> got a bash question, unfortunately #bash is silent. Can anyone remind me of the elegant way to test if a string matches a regular expression exactly?
[20:12] <robdeman_> folks how can i rename eth1 into wlan0 ?
[20:12] <MasterShrek_> remote_matrix: sudo modprobe thermal

[20:13] <migm> damnit
[20:13] <Flash> CoolSoul: heh... at least yours runns :))))
[20:13] <preaction_> kharloss, .htaccess doesn't do that. look for "Order" "Require" and "Allow"
[20:13] <migm> guess im gonna have to do the install with the alternate cd
[20:13] <remote_matrix> thx mastershrek
[20:13] <CoolSoul> Flash: did you update it by console?
[20:13] <CoolSoul> Flash: did you upgrade it by console?
[20:13] <preaction_> kharloss, your best bet would be to join #apache on this network

[20:13] <Budda|> Zionad_: ???
[20:13] <Flash> CoolSoul: yeah... and then seeing it didn`t work i did a full reinstall :P
[20:13] <remote_matrix> well that didnt work, i read somewhere that reloading the thermal module the fan might work
[20:13] <RedHeron> MasterShrek_: Any help on being able to recompile my kernel? The instructions on the Ubuntu support page are dead wrong.

[20:15] <Sal> can someone help me?
[20:15] <soundray> remote_matrix: if it's an ACPI incompatibility (which is likely, given that other people with your machine had trouble, too), then it might be worth to try fixing your DSDT
[20:15] <remote_matrix> DSDT?
[20:16] <migm> why do you want to rename eth1 onto wlan0?
[20:16] <CoolSoul> Flash: maybe your problem is of configuration, did you use the same forder after reinstalling the system. But do you have one or two partitions?
[20:16] <RedHeron> MasterShrek_: ncurses!!! I've been trying to find that!
[20:16] <remote_matrix> soundray remember u asked me if the fan was on when the grub was running? well its not
[20:16] <Flash> CoolSoul: I have 3 other partitions
[20:16] <Flash> CoolSoul:  2 of wich i use for win
[20:17] <Flash> CoolSoul:  and the 3rd is the swap
[20:17] <soundray> remote_matrix: here's some info on fixing a DSDT: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ACPIBattery
[20:17] <Pici> Sal: You might want to use the alternate CD to install inside a virtual machine.
[20:17] <CoolSoul> Flash: did you reinstall the system in the same user's folder?
[20:17] <remote_matrix> soundray would this fix the fan?
[20:17] <Flash> CoolSoul: nope... i did a full format
[20:18] <CoolSoul> Flash: a full format............then you got a problem :)
[20:18] <PreZGN> I don't suppose anyone knows WTF keeps overwriting the /etc/chatscripts/ppp0 every time I use the network manager? or more importantly, how I can edit what it overwrites with or stop it doing so?

[20:18] <erUSUL> adelie: if [[ string ~= regexp ]]
[20:18] <soundray> remote_matrix: it may or may not
[20:18] <Flash> CoolSoul: do you use something else on your sistem besides ubuntu?

[20:19] <EtteSB> i just looked on synaptic and theres python AND python2.4

[20:26] <remote_matrix> soundray extract the one FROM my bios? how do i that?
[20:26] <soundray> Box|UK: neither. The best driver for your chipset is the open source ati one.

[20:27] <Pici> josh__: sudo lshw | most will give you your computer specs

[20:27] <Box|UK> soundray,  do i google ati open source ? or is it on the ati site at ati site right now
[20:27] <josh__> Ok, how do I see disk space?
[20:27] <erUSUL> mnemonica: the only command you need sudo to is the final make install or checkinstall
[20:28] <mnemonica> erUSUL: Mmmk. I'll delete the file, re-extract it, and try that, then. Thanks. I'll get back to you on if it works or not.

[20:29] <stimp1> @pici: thx for lshw command - didnt knew that one
[20:29] <soundray> Box|UK: what you're reading is about the fglrx (closed source) driver.
[20:29] <bbardlbradd> mastershrek, you did, and I didn't get around to doing it, thanks for the repeat though.
[20:29] <Box|UK> ahhhhh

[20:30] <gsuveg> how can i add more one alias to my email box ?
[20:31] <gsuveg> eroticon, ask please
[20:31] <eroticon> when i run dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg it does not prompt to AUTODETECT my video card
[20:31] <MasterShrek_> !ask | eroticon
[20:31] <ubotu> eroticon: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[20:31] <The_K> wait a sec... does anyone know what the advantage of wicd is over the default NetworkManager?
[20:31] <eroticon> what could be wrong?
[20:31] <eroticon> I tried with -phigh even...
[20:31] <gsuveg> within evolution
[20:31] <eroticon> from command line.
[20:31] <soundray> ThomasVL: I know nothing about your card. You may be best off with the fglrx driver, or not.
[20:31] <dave_> quit
[20:31] <MasterShrek_> !enter | eroticon
[20:31] <ubotu> eroticon: Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation!
[20:32] <mnemonica> erUSUL: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/47727/   <--- Does that look like everything went alright? I can't tell.
[20:32] <Box|UK> soundray i got it working through system/ admin/ screen graphics got me screen resoloution to work but was trying to tinker for coppnix
[20:32] <soundray> Flash: does it really say "riit"? I've never seen that
[20:32] <Flash> soundray: only "it"
[20:32] <MasterShrek_> mnemonica: looks good to me
[20:32] <rly> Ican watch youtube vids, but no other vids... what to do? please don't just show me some impersonal wiki I'll not understand
[20:32] <erUSUL> mnemonica: it looks like everything went ok
[20:32] <jad_jay> hi all
[20:33] <CoolSoul> Flash: did you try installing different linux systems, for example mandriva and as it didn't work you installed ubuntu riht after it?
[20:33] <kbrooks> rly: give me an age range?
[20:33] <mnemonica> erUSUL: Mmmk. Awesome. Thank you.
[20:33] <jad_jay> is there problems on fr.archive.ubuntu.com ???
[20:33] <buddhaboy> cursor stops at: Running local boot scripts (/etc/rc.local) with a fresh install, anyone had this issue?
[20:33] <jad_jay> is there problems on fr.archive.ubuntu.com ???
[20:33] <Flash> CoolSoul: no man i like ubuntu :P
[20:33] <erUSUL> mnemonica: no problem
[20:33] <MasterShrek_> "
[20:33] <MasterShrek_> oop
[20:33] <MasterShrek_> damn irssi on putty lol
[20:34] <rly> kbrooks: I'm old... but I don't understand nothing about linux... is that fair enough?
[20:34] <CoolSoul> Flash: how long did it pass after you installed ubuntu and then the other?
[20:34] <jad_jay> can't get a package
[20:34] <Flash> CoolSoul: pfff... dunno man
[20:34] <kbrooks> rly: i was wondering if you were restricted by your parents, but all right.
[20:34] <Flash> CoolSoul: couple of hours...
[20:34] <remote_matrix> soundray buddy i found some cool stuff here
[20:34] <misticwarrior> hey
[20:34]  * jad_jay ubuntu is the bast debian version i'd ever installed
[20:35] <remote_matrix> soundray check this out
[20:35] <CoolSoul> flash: did you check the bios for booting from hard disk?
[20:35] <Flash> CoolSoul: yeah bro...:P
[20:35] <remote_matrix> soundray:
[20:35] <remote_matrix> sudo acpi -V sudo acpi -V
[20:35] <remote_matrix>      Battery 1: charging, 37%, rate information unavailable.
[20:35] <remote_matrix>      Thermal 1: ok, 68.0 degrees C
[20:35] <remote_matrix>   AC Adapter 1: on-line
[20:35] <soundray> Flash: this error happens when Linux needs a driver for the disk that isn't part of the initramfs. I didn't think these were happening any more. They used to be commonplace when SATA was very new.
[20:35] <magnetron> jad_jay: please join us in #ubuntu-offtopic and chat with us!
[20:35] <rly> kbrooks: I think this may be some codec issue... but the codec wiki page doesn't help me at all
[20:36] <CoolSoul> Flash: you're using a sata hd?
[20:36] <Flash> soundray: well... it seems to be happening now... :))
[20:36] <Flash> CoolSoul: yes
[20:36] <soundray> remote_matrix: you mean you discovered acpi -V, or it has started working?
[20:36] <misticwarrior> I have a little problem. I want to start mplayer in shell mode before kdm or gdm... So It would play without starting x... like starting it in tty1, as well I could stop it when I want... but I don't know where to write my script... I tried in /etc/init.d/bootmisc.h but it does anything..
[20:36] <jubilee> Hey, on that Grub boot list, if I minus the #, will that make it work? Like, does anything like "# blah blah blah" make it comment, and if take the # off it'll make "blah blah blah" do something? Sorry for being so noob
[20:36] <RedHeron> MasterShrek_, compiling now, thanks!
[20:36] <mikebeecham> Hi guys...is there anyway to NOT have my mounted drives showing on the desktop, but keep them mounted?
[20:37] <waseem> hello all
[20:37]  * kbrooks attaches to magnetron
[20:37] <erUSUL> mikebeecham: mount them under /mn/ and not under /media/
[20:37] <RedHeron> jubilee: it will try. :-)
[20:37] <soundray> Flash: what confuses me is that, as you say, it used to boot and now not any more. Is that right?
[20:37] <erUSUL> mikebeecham: mount them under /mnt/ and not under /media/
[20:37] <remote_matrix> soundray lol no the acpi is working... but here is what i found out, the fan is working, i just noticed it turning, the maximum temperature for my cpu is around 68-69 degrees celcius and thats where my cpu temp. is running around...
[20:37] <waseem> my wireless gui is acting wierd and not showing my actual connection
[20:38]  * soundray gives kbrooks a spin and makes him levitate 4 inches above magnetron
[20:38] <waseem> im connected to net now but according to it there is no wireless device
[20:38] <remote_matrix> soundray: so the fan works for very few seconds every so often... how can i change the threshold temperature so it starts at a lesser value?
[20:38] <mikebeecham> erUSUL: sorry...but I've not been using linux very long..I dont understand?
[20:38] <Flash> soundray: it booted for like 3 times
[20:38] <Flash> soundray: and now when i go to rescue mode i get to the busybox... initramfs
[20:38] <Flash> :P
[20:38] <eroticon> hi
[20:38] <soundray> Flash: did you run any updates when it first booted?
[20:39] <eroticon> how can i tell dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg to try to autodetect my video card?
[20:39] <Flash> soundray: nope... don`t think so
[20:39] <unop> eroticon, you don't -- it automatically should
[20:39] <soundray> remote_matrix: hold on, I need to do a web search to remind myself
[20:39] <remote_matrix> soundray thx bro
[20:39] <Longfellow> Good Afternoon everyone
[20:39] <erUSUL> mikebeecham: your drives are configured to be mounted in /media/ everything you mount there shows up on the desktop if you mount it under /mnt/ instead (or any other mountpoint for that matter) they will not show up
[20:39] <eroticon> unop: it does not even ask if i want to autodetect.

[20:39] <unop> eroticon, you could try adding the -plow switch to dpkg-reconfigure -- such as -- dpkg-reconfigure -plow xserver-xorg
[20:40] <AndyR> whats this? how to get a kline lesson 1
[20:40] <eroticon> it does not autodetect with -plow even
[20:40] <waseem> guys if i have set up a manual wireless connection does the gui (on the top right) ignore the wirless device?
[20:40] <gerhard> how to play FLAC with xmms?
[20:40] <sayers> Uh, the flashplugin-nonfree package does not work complaining about a md5 hash mismatch
[20:40] <mikebeecham> erUSUL: ...ahhh reading on the ubuntu forums...even easier is to make them invisible in gconf-editor
[20:41] <freak124> is there an explanation why sometimes compiz, awn and emerald all stop working?
[20:41] <rly> kbrooks: I think this may be some codec issue... but the codec wiki page doesn't help me at all
[20:41] <profanephobia> waseem, when you setup a manual connection.. nm-applet (at least in my experience) shows it as a wired connection
[20:41] <rly> will you help me? or maybe some other nick?
[20:41] <eroticon> unop: any idea of why dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg does not try to autodetect my video card?
[20:41] <gerhard> how to play FLAC with xmms?
[20:41] <seqizz> hi, is anybody here "can compile" slam soccer for ubuntu?
[20:42] <linux4me> i'm running ubuntu 7.10, what torrent client would you guys recommend?
[20:42] <waseem> profanephobia: thanks, my wireless has never worked correctly since day 1
[20:42] <unop> eroticon, errm, no idea -- probably doesn't recognise the make or/an model of your card
[20:42] <tonyyarusso> seqizz: what is slam soccer?

[20:42] <gerhard> maybe you answer me
[20:42] <gerhard> cannot be so difficult
[20:42] <seqizz> tonyyarusso: is a game which is old.. wants x11, not xorg i think
[20:42] <profanephobia> waseem, it has its bugs.. what card do you have?
[20:42] <tonyyarusso> linux4me: Deluge, Transmission.
[20:43] <linux4me> profanephobia - tks

[20:43] <eroticon> OK.
[20:43] <eltux> I cannot get the flash plugin to work with mozilla
[20:43] <profanephobia> linduxed, welcome

[20:43] <profanephobia> waseem, k well if the connection is working i wouldnt mess with it.. sorry to hear you had troubles

[20:44] <waseem> profanephobia:  yeah thats what i thought, thanks

[20:47] <dgrant> CoolSoul: apt-get doesn't know about it for some reason. I had installed it with dpkg -i
[20:47] <soundray> remote_matrix: it depends on your machine. Somewhere under /proc/acpi/thermal
[20:47] <tomo> is there a de in linux that is deigned for touch tables?
[20:47] <dgrant> CoolSoul: so know I can't remove it

[20:48] <profanephobia> white_eagle, use the first link ubotu sent you

[20:48] <waseem> Budda|: and how experienced are you with ubuntu and linux
[20:48] <white_eagle> ok
[20:48] <Budda|> waseem: In windows it works fine, but in ubuntu the signal is at 70%, and it randomly disconnects and doesn't reconnect. Someone told me to install wicd, which I did, now it doesn't connect to the network at all

[20:49] <Flash> soundray: yeah man thx for beeing a pall :)
[20:49] <Box|UK> in xorg.conf can i change the driver "Ati"to "fglrx" and click save? will this do some damage?
[20:49] <waseem> Budda|: well try and find the chipset you have and see if ndiswrapper is compatible with it
[20:49] <CoolSoul> dgrant: but the program works or it's just using a space on your disk?
[20:49] <dgrant> CoolSoul: I downloaded the package again and re-did dpkg -i and it did say "replacing package XXX" so it must have been actually installed. And now after re-installing apt-get still doesn't know about it
[20:49] <waseem> Budda|:  did that make sense?

[20:50] <Flash> soundray: pall = friend :P
[20:50] <eroticon> Hi folks,
[20:50] <profanephobia> Box|UK, yeah use the restricted drivers manager to install that driver
[20:51] <Budda|> waseem: not at all
[20:51] <Budda|> Whatever I put the driver as, the wicd thing just hangs at "Obtaining IP Address"
[20:51] <matthijs> Hello, I got a problem with the archive manager of ubuntu, if i try to extract something it says: An error occurred while extracting files
[20:51] <eroticon> The hardware autodetection on Ubuntu does not seem to be working, a dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg does not even prompt me to "autodetect" my video card
[20:51] <waseem> Budda|:  ok ndiswrapper is this software that allows you to use windows drivers in linux, it might be the solution for you
[20:51] <Budda|> (09:50:08) Budda|: waseem: not at all
[20:51] <Budda|> (09:50:46) Budda|: Whatever I put the driver as, the wicd thing just hangs at "Obtaining IP Address"
[20:51] <dgrant> CoolSoul: i wonder if its because the package is actually for a different arch
[20:52] <Box|UK> profanephobia,  i have the screen resoloution to what i want after playing about just trying to see iff i can get compiz  or a 3d desktop
[20:52] <Budda|> I just tried ndiswrapper, didn't work

[20:52] <waseem> Budda|:  what do you mean it didnt work? did it give an error?

[20:52] <white_eagle> ok thanks very much for the help

[20:54] <Box|UK> just typed fglrxinfo in terminal and theres nothing about ATI its a load of stuff bout mesa ill have a look in restricted drives see if that helps
[20:54] <waseem> Budda|: install ndiswrapper and the install ndisgtk, ndisgtk is the gui frontend
[20:54] <waseem> Budda|: it will show if your device is identified and working properly
[20:54] <Budda|> "sudo apt-get install ndiswrapper"?
[20:55] <Box|UK> thxs for the help profanephobia  much appreciated
[20:55] <waseem> yes
[20:55] <Budda|> k

[20:57] <``Cube> profanephobia: ugh, it worked b4 the lastest big upgrade, to gubson or whatever its called. I have an nvidia 7950 I think
[20:58] <jugimaster> i installed CCSM, but i can't figure out how to actually ..  SAVE settings with it..   -any ideas?  why is there no "save" -button etc?
[20:58] <Budda|> waseem
[20:58] <Budda|> whats the repos for ndiswrapper, and that other thing
[20:58] <waseem> Budda|: yes?
[20:58] <profanephobia> ``Cube, honestly for best help with this issue id try #ubuntu-effects first
[20:59] <waseem> Budda|: i forgot where you tick the repos im trying to find it, maybe someone can point it out to shorten the time
[20:59] <profanephobia> jugimaster, its automatic
[20:59] <``Cube> oh ok
[20:59] <``Cube> thanks man
[20:59] <profanephobia> np
[20:59] <Budda|> waseem: System>Admin>Software Sources
[20:59] <Budda|> And I've already ticked everything
[20:59] <bsdunix> i need help with broken ubuntu-desktop
[20:59] <waseem> lol yes
[20:59] <waseem> well thats odd, ndiswrapper should be there
[20:59] <Budda|> =(
[20:59] <profanephobia> bsdunix, what is the problem again?
[21:00] <waseem> ok just try and write ndiswrapper on its own and see if it does anything
[21:00] <jugimaster> profanephobia: oh? well, i hoped it would be, tried to set ubuntu to _not_ detect my display (which it can't do), and to set the refresh rate slider to 60 (instead of 50, where it wants to be, but is not supposed to be with this LCD)..   but when i restarted CCSM, all the settings were back to their wrong values
[21:00] <richo> Got sveral *.iso that i wanna mount. are there any way to do that? Something like deamon tool perhaps?
[21:00] <Longfellow> hey, does anyone know the sudo command to install a .bin file?
[21:00] <astro76> !iso | richo
[21:00] <ubotu> richo: To mount an ISO disc image, type « sudo mount -o loop <ISO-filename> <mountpoint> » - There is a list of useful cd image conversion tools at http://wiki.linuxquestions.org/wiki/CD_Image_Conversion - Always verify the ISO using !MD5 before !burning.
[21:00] <richo> astro76:  :D   ok
[21:00] <bsdunix> profanephobia: login attempt breaks. error is gtk+ is trying to run setuid or setgid (gtk+ doesn't support that)
[21:00] <waseem> and in the repos you have to untick the get apps from CD
[21:01] <jugimaster> profanephobia: i'm using a geforce 8800gts and samsung 226BW, and there seem to be some problems with these and Gutsy
[21:01] <profanephobia> jugimaster, id set all my screen options in the xorg.conf file... make a backup before proceeding
[21:01] <Budda|> waseem: it was ndiswrapper-common
[21:01] <waseem> Budda|:ahh i see, well i had to install it the manual way so sorry bout that
[21:01] <jugimaster> profanephobia: well, i already tried dkpg-reconfigure xserver-xorg, but it didn't work out
[21:01] <waseem> Budda|: next you need the ndisgtk
[21:01] <profanephobia> bsdunix, is there anyway you can paste the error for me... use pastebin
[21:02] <jugimaster> (it fails to detect this display)
[21:02] <Budda|> waseem: what was the second thing you waid?
[21:02] <Budda|> ndisgtk...
[21:02] <bsdunix> profanephobia: will do. thanks
[21:02] <Longfellow> How do i install a .bin file?
[21:02] <waseem> Budda|: fairyly sure its ndisgtk on its own, but dont shoot me if im wrong
[21:02] <Budda|> Yea it was
[21:02] <Budda|> Done that, now what
[21:03] <bascule> I am having trouble installing ubuntu to an external drive cause I can't get grub to go on, not a BIOS drive it tells me, any suggestions?
[21:03] <profanephobia> jugimaster, well make a backup.. sudo cp /etc/X11/xorg.conf /etc/X11/xorg.conf.orig and then open the file .... sudo gedit (or nano or vim etc..) /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[21:03] <Budda|> waseem: Now what?
[21:04] <jugimaster> profanephobia: and somehow force the refresh rate to 60?  -but does it matter if ubuntu detects this display correctly or not?
[21:04] <waseem> Budda|: now that you have the ndisgtk app installed run it, (from gui or command line it shouldnt matter)
[21:04] <profanephobia> jugimaster, whats the display?
[21:04] <jugimaster> profanephobia: it's a samsung 226BW, LCD
[21:05] <profanephobia> jugimaster, k one sec
[21:05] <jugimaster> ok
[21:05] <Budda|> waseem: where are my windows drives located?
[21:05] <Budda|> =/
[21:05] <Longfellow> Does anyone know how to install a .bin file? I cant seem to install this one program
[21:06] <profanephobia> jugimaster, using gutsy?
[21:06] <jugimaster> yes
[21:06] <waseem> Budda|:  did it say the hardware was present?
[21:06] <bsdunix> profanephobia: http://www.pastebin.org/11108 is my gtk+ error message details.
[21:06] <Budda|> waseem: didn't say anything
[21:06] <profanephobia> jugimaster, im seeing where people ge tthis problem.. some fixed it with sudo aptitude install xserver-xorg-video-intel
[21:06] <richo> astro76: works like a charm to mount .iso ;) thx AGAIN for outstanding help. I hope i will one day be good enough to repay all help i got
[21:06] <Budda|> A gui popped up saying "Currently Installed Windows Driver"
[21:07] <Longfellow> !.bin
[21:07] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about bin - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[21:07] <jugimaster> hmm
[21:07] <DDuong> Longfellow,  did you type sudo sh ./name.bin?
[21:07] <Budda|> And tehres nothing in the list
[21:07] <waseem> Budda|: i see... well like i was saying before
[21:07] <Longfellow> im new to ubuntu, im still getting used to it
[21:07] <Longfellow> ill  give that a show
[21:07] <waseem> Budda|: you need to identify your chipset before you can install the right driver
[21:07] <jugimaster> profanephobia: yes, but would it make sense to install some intel driver even though i'm not using an intel gfx chip ? :)
[21:07] <Longfellow> shot&
[21:07] <Budda|> waseem: How?
[21:07] <Budda|> lol
[21:07] <Longfellow> is there any place with a list of useful terminal commands?
[21:08] <profanephobia> jugimaster, yeah im not sure why that was posted as a fix... give me one more sec
[21:08] <jugimaster> ok cool
[21:08] <waseem> Budda|: well do you have an installation disc (if its usb) or know what wireless card you have if its pci
[21:08] <profanephobia> jugimaster, although they swear by it
[21:08] <richo> Longfellow: yeah good idea. could prob use that to ;)
[21:08] <jugimaster> hmm
[21:08] <Budda|> DWL-G510
[21:08] <jugimaster> Longfellow: here's a good tutorial on commands http://www.ibm.com/developerworks/aix/library/au-unix-commandline/index.html
[21:08] <Longfellow> yeah that command didn't work
[21:08] <Longfellow> awesome thanks you
[21:09] <n00bie> hi, i'm trying to install flashplugin-nonfree... but i'm getting the following errors:
[21:09] <n00bie> md5sum mismatch install_flash_player_9_linux.tar.gz
[21:09] <DDuong> Longfellow,  what did it say when it didn't work?
[21:09] <n00bie> The Flash plugin is NOT installed.
[21:09] <wols_> !flash
[21:09] <ubotu> To install Flash see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats/Flash - Flash 9 is now available in dapper-backports and edgy-backports - See also !Restricted and !Gnash
[21:09] <Budda|> waseem: I have an installation disc, and the card is DLink DWL-G510
[21:09] <profanephobia> jugimaster, it seems youre going to have to set the resolution by hand for that screen in xorg.conf
[21:09] <waseem> Budda|: hold up im looking it up
[21:09] <Longfellow> it said it couldn't open the file
[21:09] <jugimaster> profanephobia: hmm ok, but xorg.conf is a bit intimidating
[21:10] <jugimaster> profanephobia: is there just some simple setting for the refresh rate?
[21:10] <profanephobia> bsdunix, im not familiar with this error... post the question again using that pastebin link, someone will get to you sry
[21:10] <bsdunix> profanephobia: thanks
[21:10] <profanephobia> jugimaster, have you tried gutsy's screen and resolutions tool yet?
[21:10] <waseem> Budda|: is it pci or usb?
[21:10] <linux__> i need osme help
[21:10] <linux__> *some
[21:10] <DDuong> Longfellow,  what are it's permissoins on that file?
[21:10] <DDuong> Longfellow,  *permissions
[21:10] <Budda|> waseem: pci
[21:11] <jugimaster> profanephobia: well, yeah i think i have, but it doesn't let me choose anything other than 50hz
[21:11] <waseem> i see
[21:11] <izmaelis> hello, everybody
[21:11] <linux__> can someone help me i cant connect my laptop to the internet
[21:11] <izmaelis> I have very old DFI CW35-S Rev.2 MoBo with integrated sound. What module shoulde i load to enable sound?
[21:11] <Longfellow> ill check now
[21:11] <profanephobia> jugimaster, other than editing xorg.. im not sure how else to set a custom refresh rate
[21:11] <Flare183> !ask | linux__
[21:11] <ubotu> linux__: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[21:11] <jugimaster> profanephobia: i guess it's because ubuntu hasn't detected the screen properly, so it doesn't want to let me choose anything
[21:12] <rhalff> hi  I'm trying to install ubuntu server with a 3ware raid controller, driver 3w-9xxx (3ware 9650se), the setup goes fine and I can partition my drive, but when setup is finished and reboots it will hang with only a dead cursor to see
[21:12] <jugimaster> profanephobia: i'll give it a try.   - thanks for your help! :)
[21:12] <linux__> ok
[21:12] <rhalff> how to debug this
[21:12] <waseem> Budda|: have a look at this
[21:12] <profanephobia> jugimaster, right, im sry good luck!
[21:12] <waseem> Budda|: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/DWL-G510
[21:12] <tongueroo> ugh, how can i get grep to only print out the filename of matches only, and only one filename even if there are multiple matches in the file..
[21:12] <linux__> brb
[21:12] <askand> Shouldnt gutsy have out of the box support for ntfs?
[21:12] <Budda|> k
[21:12] <Longfellow> i just fixed the permissions and nothing changed
[21:13] <DDuong> Longfellow,  what did you fix it to?
[21:13] <waseem> Budda|: Im gonna have to go soon but i think you should be alright with that and if you get an error just hope someone round here will help or post a thread in the wireless section of the forum (not beginner help)
[21:13] <DDuong> Longfellow,  did you also try to redownload the file and try it again?
[21:13] <waseem> Budda|: good luck ;)
[21:13] <sigma>  i don't understand why my synce isn't working, i followed the guide at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/PortableDevices/WindowsMobile to the tee, when i connect my device the pc picks it up because it creates a new ip address in network connections but synce refuses to see it, funnily enough if i enable my wireless modem synce picks up the device but obviously cannot sync to it, any help?
[21:13] <bsdunix> askand: ntfs "support" is an invitation to liability. ntfs writes are still iffy, i believe. may create unusable filesystems, last i heard
[21:13] <DDuong> Longfellow, mind if I ask, what are you trying to install?
[21:14] <Longfellow> i tried that, i changed the permissions to all checked
[21:14] <Longfellow> a game called graal
[21:14] <askand> bsdunix: but fat32 cant use 4gb+ files?
[21:14] <wols_> askand: right
[21:15] <emes> does the stock ubuntu kernel read HFS+ and a GUID partition table?
[21:15] <DDuong> Longfellow,  ok, I'm downloading that now and see if I can install it
[21:15] <differentreality> i want to use gaim but my email is in gmail.com  with msn messenger i had made my email compatible with msn messenger... with gaim how do I use my gmail email ?
[21:15] <bsdunix> askand: i think i've succesfully copied 4+GB movie images to my fat32 swap drive
[21:15] <stonedjay> Hi... I have an user without add/remove option in menu... how could I install the flash plugin?  I have installed with another user, Ubuntu Restricted Extras package, but this package does not aply to all users, why?
[21:16] <askand> bsdunix: :O any special program?
[21:16] <rparkhurst> how compatible is the blackberry with linux?
[21:16] <DDuong> rparkhurst,  depends what you want to do with it
[21:16] <Longfellow> ok thank you
[21:16] <bsdunix> askand: again, i'm not sure. try it.
[21:16] <rparkhurst> DDuong:  sync it with evolution and tether with it
[21:16] <askand> bsdunix: yea I tried but it didnt work for me
[21:17] <mcquaid> i have a need for one of those dynamic ip things.  I see no-ip and dyndns are both available for linux.  Any thoughts on which is better?
[21:18] <bsdunix> askand: were you using drag and drop...via smb// ?i use cli. actually typing full path names, quoting windows pathnames when they had spaces in them, using cp
[21:18] <astro76> mcquaid, both are fine, dyndns seems to have had more support in consumer routers
[21:19] <DDuong> rparkhurst,  hrmmm that I'm not sure of.  The only thing I know is that you can charge your bb in linux (of course you have to downlad a program to do that)
[21:19] <mcquaid> astro76, what about setup?  I think dyndns has a gui config.  do they both run as a system service?
[21:19] <DDuong> Longfellow,  hrmmm strange, it doesn't work for it.  Says syntax error
[21:19] <tgillespie> anyone experienced in xlib development?
[21:19] <bsdunix> askand: i use quotes like this; "Documents and Settings"
[21:20] <stonedjay>  Hi... I have an user without add/remove option in menu... how could I install the flash plugin?  I have installed with another user, Ubuntu Restricted Extras package, but this package does not aply to all users, why?
[21:20] <astro76> mcquaid, dunno about their linux software because I just use my router as a dyndns client
[21:20] <mcquaid> ah
[21:20] <mcquaid> thx
[21:20] <Longfellow> Weird
[21:20] <askand> bsdunix: ah ok...according to wikipedia the maximum filesize fat32 can handle is only 4 gb :(
[21:20] <Longfellow> Ill just find some other game to occupy my time then, lol
[21:20] <DDuong> Longfellow,  and i can't find any documentation on their site...
[21:20] <bsdunix> askand: that may be. let me try one here
[21:21] <tgillespie> Longfellow alienarena!
[21:21] <Longfellow> Yeah they dont have much
[21:21] <Longfellow> alienarena?
[21:21] <tgillespie> fps game
[21:21] <tgillespie> its awesome
[21:21] <astro76> mcquaid, there's ez-ipupdate already in Ubuntu's repos, claims to support a bunch of services, including dyndns, but not noip
[21:21] <astro76> mcquaid, so I'm sensing a trend
[21:21] <tgillespie> longfellow: what sort of game are you looking for?
[21:21] <mcquaid> cool thx
[21:22] <Longfellow> Not really sure, Im in to FPS's and RPGs mainly
[21:22] <astro76> mcquaid, I see there's a no-ip client too in the repos
[21:22] <jobu1543> Hi all - I'm having trouble booting from a degraded raid; I get dropped into busybox. I can get the degraded raid running using mdadm -run, but I don't know how to get the computer to boot into linux afterwards because "Target filesystem doesn't have /sbin/init" Any suggestions?
[21:23] <mcquaid> yes just noticed that. well i'll probably start with dyndns and see how it goes
[21:23] <tgillespie> alen arena, tremulous, urban terror, warsow are all good oss fps, and then theres quake and ut commercially
[21:23] <mcquaid> the dyndns client is ddclient, just looking into ez-ip now
[21:23] <Longfellow> ill check out alien arena, thank you
[21:23] <tgillespie> :D no probs
[21:24] <faintofhearts> Ooookay
[21:24] <faintofhearts> So
[21:24] <faintofhearts> My Ubuntu suddenly stopped detecting my sound card on startup.
[21:25] <faintofhearts> Does anyone know what may have caused it or how I can fix it?
[21:25] <kazol> I have a problem with Ubuntu crashing all the time.
[21:25] <GigaClon> is there a web page with printer recommendations for dapper?
[21:25] <FRKPRO> ubuntu rules
[21:25] <Seveas> faintofhearts, probably you played too much britney spears and your machine gave up on you ;)
[21:25] <bsdunix> askand: i am having trouble finding something 4GB+!
[21:25] <faintofhearts> Ouch
[21:25] <kazol> FRKPRO: How come it crashes all the time and has bugs?
[21:26] <Seveas> faintofhearts, if you think that's a false accusation, run this command: dmesg
[21:26] <Seveas> and pastebin its output
[21:26] <faintofhearts> Seriously though, lspci is turning up an audio device
[21:26] <FRKPRO> what
[21:26] <Seveas> kazol, whining to /dev/null please. This is a support channel
[21:27] <FRKPRO> shoop da whoop
[21:27] <kazol> Seveas: Yes, I have a problem with Ubuntu crashing-the whole GUI disappears and the login window is opened.
[21:27] <FRKPRO> hmm whats better suse or ubuntu
[21:27] <kazol> FRKPRO: SuSe is more stable in my experience.
[21:27] <Seveas> FRKPRO, what's better: apples or oranges
[21:28] <Seveas> kazol, last warning: whining to /dev/null
[21:28] <wols_> kazol: then run suse. please do
[21:28] <FRKPRO> i dunna
[21:28] <faintofhearts> seveas: http://pastebin.com/m3bd00d7d
[21:28] <kazol> Seveas: I'm trying to get help-my Ubuntu system is crashing.
[21:28] <Seveas> FRKPRO, they both have their pros and cons. In here most people will probably say ubuntu is better
[21:28] <d0rt> FRKPRO: emacs is so much better than vi
[21:28] <Seveas> kazol, way to be specific
[21:28] <tgillespie> suse's better on a server
[21:28] <askand> bsdunix: yeah its mostly dvdimages
[21:28] <simmerz> does the 32bit version of ubuntu support PAE?
[21:28] <wols_> kazol: "my crah is stopping" is about as useful to a mechanic trying to diagnose a car problem
[21:28] <tgillespie> ubuntu's better on desktop
[21:28] <tgillespie> imho
[21:28] <kazol> wols_: I do run SuSe on my server (that has never crashed).
[21:28] <FRKPRO> yeah, kde>gnome
[21:29] <wols_> kazol: google "mart questions" and follow its advice
[21:29] <Pocket1> hi, i have got a SB Live (SB0220) and i cant use the microphone
[21:29] <faintofhearts> Oh wow...
[21:29] <Pocket1> anyone know how to get it run or what drivers do i need?
[21:29] <faintofhearts> Something died
[21:29] <faintofhearts> And it's restricted drivers
[21:29] <mhiku> can ubuntu support mmo games?
[21:30] <Pocket1> not for linux?
[21:30] <kazol> wols_: When I leave the system on for a couple hours, all the windows are lost (X-server crash?) and the login screen appears.
[21:30] <stothepizzle> hi
[21:30] <kazol> wols_: I could not get anything in dmesg.
[21:30] <stothepizzle> im having some audio problems :'(
[21:30] <Seveas> kazol, are you running compiz?
[21:30] <kazol> wols_: Once I found the computer having a blank screen with all 3 keyboard LEDs blinking.
[21:30] <nik_> hello, on my laptop there is a special key for accessing the right-click menu (context menü) ... but hitting it nothing happens..any idea?
[21:30] <kazol> Seveas: Yes, with compiz-fusion.
[21:31] <Seveas> kazol, disable it and see if that helps
[21:31] <kazol> Seveas: There's no fix for the problem?
[21:31] <Seveas> kazol, let's first identify the problem and then try to fix it
[21:31] <jobu1543> anyone familiar with booting a degraded raid 1 system?
[21:31] <Pocket1> there is a channel about Sound Blaster cards for ubuntu?
[21:31] <kazol> ok
[21:32] <stothepizzle> can i get a little help my ubuntu install refuses to make ANY sound at all
[21:32] <brobostigon> good evening
[21:32] <Seveas> stothepizzle, run this command and pastebin its output: amixer
[21:33] <GIMP22> does anyone know how to increment (or do arithemetic) in a bash script? Stuff like ((++savename)) gives me an error, I'm ushing bash
[21:33] <FRKPRO> macs are better than linuxes
[21:33] <stothepizzle> kk
[21:33] <white_eagle> i have a problem with google earth(the latest stable build), when I try to run it, the splash screen starts and the program doesn't load the splash screen just stays that way
[21:33] <GIMP22> driving me insane how hard it is to just do a simple increment in bash scripts
[21:33] <Seveas> faintofhearts, why are you so sure ubuntu stopped detecting the card? Can't it just be muted?
[21:33] <brobostigon> frkpro, what about linux on a mac??
[21:34] <FRKPRO> i mean mac os
[21:34] <brobostigon> x
[21:34] <white_eagle> help!
[21:34] <FRKPRO> linux wasn't working on my mac book
[21:34] <white_eagle> do I need a plugin of somekind or not?

[21:34] <faintofhearts> Seveas: Because when I click on Volume Control it tells me that it either can't detect the card or doesn't have the drivers. I'm pretty sure it's the drivers though, because I cant get restricted drivers working at all anymore.
[21:34] <Seveas> white_eagle, google earth is not part of ubuntu, maybe google can help you :)
[21:34] <white_eagle> ok
[21:35] <Seveas> faintofhearts, fair enough

[21:36] <DanaG> argh.
[21:36] <stothepizzle> sorry... am a noob
[21:36] <Seveas> np :)
[21:36] <Flare183> Can someone tell me where i can find the recipe for Ubuntu Cake?
[21:36] <DanaG> WWheres' the auto-bug-title-reading ubotu?
[21:37] <Seveas> eeeek ati audio, wth is that ;)
[21:37] <migm> Anyone have any idea what drivers to use for "ATI Rage Theater/ATI Radeon" card?

[21:37] <samuel> Hello, in this command : ls `kde-config --prefix`/share/apps/konqueror/servicemenus/  ... I don't understand the `kde-config --prefix` part. Any tip ?
[21:37] <stothepizzle> thanks to the audio helpers http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/47740/
[21:38] <GIMP22> ploom, tried that. It's weird at the bash terminal things like ((++i)) work just fine but once you put it in a .sh it throws errors
[21:38] <faintofhearts> lol op'd
[21:38] <faintofhearts> XD
[21:38] <Seveas> faintofhearts, modprobe snd-atiixp
[21:39] <DanaG> If it's azalia, it's snd-hda-intel.
[21:39] <genii> Flare183: I found a link for ubuntu cookies if you want it
[21:39] <Seveas> DanaG, lspci said an ati soundcard though
[21:39] <ubuntu__> grub doesn't care if the drive is SATA?
[21:39] <Flare183> genii:> ok sure
[21:39] <faintofhearts> Now what, Seveas?
[21:39] <DanaG> It's called hda-intel because Intel designed the standard, even though others now use the standard.
[21:39] <Flare183> genii:> what the link?
[21:40] <ploom> GIMP22, aah, once you put in on the .sh script, its no longer bash
[21:40] <stothepizzle> can anyone give me a hand with my audio problem... my ubuntu isnt making any sound
[21:40] <Seveas> faintofhearts, did that give you your soundcard back? :)
[21:40] <faintofhearts> Nope
[21:40] <faintofhearts> Because!
[21:40] <GIMP22> oh god, so .sh uses completely different syntax?
[21:40] <DanaG> Oh yeah, and my onboard audio device works, but can't capture anything.
[21:40] <Narissa> so I have not so much a question but an educated guess involving the hardware cursor option, nVidia drivers, and Gutsy.  According to recent Fedora forums they have the same problem where HWCursor had to be disabled.  now, one of their "solutions" has been to remove rhgb, or in ubuntu's case usplash.  anyone following so far
[21:40] <GIMP22> any idea how to do the most simple things like..increment a variable in .sh?
[21:40] <DanaG> I mean, it doesn't even capture silence -- it just hangs.
[21:41] <unop> GIMP22, depends what shell is invoked in the shebang line of .sh
[21:41] <Flare183> genii, yeah sure what's the link?
[21:41] <Seveas> faintofhearts, what does dmesg say?
[21:41] <GIMP22> hrm

[21:41] <FluxD> !vnc
[21:41] <ubotu> VNC is a protocol for remote desktop. https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VNCOverSSH describes how to use it securely.  It works best over fast connections, otherwise look at !FreeNX
[21:41] <GIMP22> the .sh will accept bash like syntax?
[21:41] <tupson> Question, when launching FileZilla, the font color for the local and remote window are "White" and I have to select a file to actually read the data, I have changed all the possible font colors in "Appearance" I could to adjust this, any other suggestions?
[21:41] <Seveas> faintofhearts, try what DanaG said: modprobe snd-hda-intel, and inspect dmesg afterwards
[21:41] <stothepizzle> would anyone be able to help me, ubuntu is not able to make any sound at all
[21:41] <Seveas> !repeat | stothepizzle
[21:41] <ubotu> stothepizzle: Don't feel ignored and repeat your question quickly; if nobody knows your answer, nobody will answer you. You can search https://help.ubuntu.com or http://wiki.ubuntu.com while you wait. Also see !patience
[21:41] <DanaG> For me, after that second diamond-question-mark, I get this:
[21:41] <DanaG> arecord: pcm_read:1346: read error: Input/output error
[21:41] <ubuntu__> !sound
[21:41] <ubotu> If you're having problems with sound, first ensure ALSA is selected, by double clicking on the volume control, then File -> Change Device (ALSA Mixer). If that fails, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Sound - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting - http://alsa.opensrc.org/index.php?page=DmixPlugin - For playing audio files, see !Players and !MP3
[21:41] <faintofhearts> Ok, here's the deal. I've been spending most of today setting up a virtual machine using Virtualbox. In order to do so I had to mess around with some kernel stuff. Since then I cause use my restricted drivers because it tells me to get a new program for a different kernel, but the program doesn't exist.
[21:42] <unop> GIMP22, then bash is ued to run that script -- so yes, all semantics are bash related

[21:42] <MirrorImage> Hi
[21:42] <Flare183> genii:> cool thanks
[21:42] <faintofhearts> FATAL: Module snd_hda_intel not found.
[21:42] <DanaG> odd.
[21:43] <genii> Flare183: np
[21:43] <MR-REznOr> hi, i just compiled mono from svn on my ubuntu machine. its compiled and installed the binaries to /usr/local/bin . i had a previous older version from synaptic and its in /usr/bin. when i type mono it picks up the old version. is there some way i can tell linux to prefer /usr/local/bin in this case?
[21:43] <MirrorImage> I don't have a background. There's no icons, no wallpaper, and I can't right click.
[21:43] <faintofhearts> I don't have an Intel chipset
[21:43] <faintofhearts> At all
[21:43] <faintofhearts> XD
[21:43] <MirrorImage> Any sugesstions? : /
[21:43] <Seveas> faintofhearts, snd-hda-intel
[21:44] <wols_> faintofhearts: what soundcard is it?
[21:44] <DanaG> It doesn't matter that the chipset isn't Intel.  The fact that the module is entirely missing is likely the issue.
[21:45] <Hajiki> hey guys how can i format my swap partition? cuz every time i boot it says Fail...
[21:45] <faintofhearts> Wait...
[21:45] <faintofhearts> I have a different kernel
[21:45] <faintofhearts> wtf
[21:46] <Seveas> MR-REznOr, I'd say that if you don't know how to do that, you should not be messing around with svn versions of things like mono
[21:46] <MasterShrek_> Hajiki:sudo mkswap /dev/xxxx
[21:46] <Seveas> that said, just cahnge your $PATH to have /usr/local/bin before /usr/bin and you're done
[21:46] <Hajiki> MasterShrek_: thanks
[21:46] <MasterShrek_> np
[21:47] <Anveo> If I have a directory chmodded 744, and owner/group is www-data, and I have a user where one of the groups he belongs to is www-data, why does this user get permission denied when tryin gto access the directory
[21:47] <MR-REznOr> Seveas, I tried that, /usr/local/bin is the first path in $PATH and its like its ignoring it or something
[21:47] <cizarr> is there any option to Reset the apt-get to default(conf, sources...) ?
[21:49] <MasterShrek_> Anveo: have you logged out and back in since adding that user to that group?
[21:49] <Anveo> I have not
[21:49] <Anveo> I suppose I should try that :)
[21:49] <Seveas> Anveo, because you need execute permission to enter a dir
[21:49] <MasterShrek_> Seveas: no u dont
[21:49] <MasterShrek_> i dont think so at least
[21:49] <Seveas> MasterShrek_, yes you do
[21:49] <Seveas> Anveo, so you need mode 755 on that dir
[21:50] <Seveas> (or 711 if you don't want people to be able to list the contents)
[21:50] <Anveo> I did the 755 and I can enter the directory, but I still can't create a file
[21:50] <Seveas> of course not
[21:50] <Seveas> you need 775 for that :)
[21:51] <Seveas> Anveo, if you're confused by numeric values for permissions, use thing like chmod g+w
[21:51] <DanaG> I hate nvidia drivers.
[21:51] <pgdex> Anyone know how to get my boot time to below five seconds? :D
[21:51] <pgdex> DanaG: Welcome to the group
[21:51] <DanaG> I just had Xorg hard-lock to where I had to SAK it.
[21:52] <DanaG> I'd rather "Sack" it.
[21:52] <DanaG> Damnvidia.
[21:52] <pgdex> DanaG: You better start a facebook group to release your anger.

I must edit xorg.conf and use "vesa" instead "ati"  to see my desktop , but I loose the graphic aceleration . I  can get 3d graphic acceleration with Debian Etch , on the same machine using "ati" as driver .   Here is a video that shows the problem, The cursor works fine but the background its what you can see,   http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=
