[14:05] <Aadith> hi...i installed ubuntu using wubi...now i have both windows xp and ubuntu on my machine...i have a few files which i downloaded in windows and i need then on ubuntu...how do i get them?
[14:05] <ikonia> sap, please calm down
[14:05] <WalloO> noobuntu, same cd doesn't means same cd reader. However, is your partition big enough to support ubuntu install
[14:06] <Gigadelic_IIDX> 1 sec
[14:06] <noobuntu> 60gb partition should be enough for ubuntu
[14:06] <ikonia> noobuntu: plenty
[14:06] <ikonia> noobuntu: it only actually needs about 4
[14:06] <wols_> noobuntu: overkill
[14:06] <sap> you know what i will just restart my comp a nd try
[14:07] <sap> then first thing update my whole comp
[14:07] <sap> and then install
[14:07] <wols_> !ntfs-3g | Aadith
[14:07] <sap> kde
[14:07] <wols_> noobuntu: I wouldn't use wubi
[14:07] <noobuntu> maybe it was 60mb , i try it again
[14:07] <sap> and never see gnome again in my life
[14:07] <sap> or i probably will break my head open
[14:07] <ikonia> sap: calm down - yo udon't like gnome, we get it, the channel doesn't need to hear about it
[14:07] <Seiryuu> ok im back WalloO
[14:07] <Aranel> When I try to "sudo apt-get upgrade" it gives this error: http://paste.ubuntu.com/26884/ How can I fix it ?
[14:07] <sap> thank you everyone
[14:08] <sap> hope u all of you have a better day than me
[14:08] <the_eraser> yep
[14:08] <WalloO> Seiryuu, ????
[14:08] <ikonia> Aranel: easy way is to remove /var/cache/apt/archives/kdebase-runtime-data_4%3a4.0.83-0ubuntu1~hardy1~ppa5_all.deb then re-update
[14:08] <Coiotes> what's that package I need to install in amd64 hardy to get libdvdcss running?
[14:08] <Seiryuu> im Gigadelic_IIDX
[14:08] <ikonia> !dvd | Coiotes
[14:09] <Aranel> ikonia: i tried "dpkg -i var/cache/apt/archives/kdebase-runtime-data_4%3a4.0.83-0ubuntu1~hardy1~ppa5_all.deb" and it seems working
[14:09] <Seiryuu> btw heres my Pastebin http://paste.ubuntu.com/26885/
[14:09] <Aranel> ikonia: but if fails again i try your solution, thanks :)
[14:09] <ikonia> Aranel: fair enough
[14:09] <WalloO> Seiryuu, ha ok. . I gave you the way to list loaded drivers (modulkes) but I don't know what you want exactely
[14:10] <emil> Hi everyone.
[14:10] <ikonia> hello
[14:10] <mib_ot1tne> Hi i have a problem with ubuntu. When i try installing ubuntu
[14:10] <Seiryuu> well i want to downgrade my nvidia drivers in hopes to kill my lockup issues
[14:10] <emil> I have a question. I am spanking new on this thing and I was wondering. If I have Ubuntu installed, what versions of software and drivers am I supposed to use?
[14:11] <mib_ot1tne> its loading and screen giving a "out of sync" error
[14:11] <shubbar> anyone has a trouble free wireless connection?
[14:11] <WalloO> mib_ot1tne, ask the question with details if you want an answer
[14:11] <Xpistos> I could use a little help. I am running hardy and my samba shares are very inconsistant. I have one bookmarked and that is never a problem, but If I go to network and windows Network they do not always so up? Can some help me with this. It is very frustrating.
[14:11] <ikonia> emil: the drivers will be handled by ubuntu mostly, so you don't need to worry about versions
[14:11] <European-African> the power flash off and bombed my pc, and it looks like I have lost all my playlists in rythmbox! is there anyway of retrieving them?
[14:11] <WalloO> Seiryuu, what is your issue exactely?
[14:11] <Seiryuu> system lockups
[14:11] <mib_ot1tne> sorry i am using a friends com, and sometimes i pushing enter before finish my word
[14:12] <Seiryuu> i dont really have to do anything it just locked up
[14:12] <ikonia> Seiryuu: when the system locks up can you press the numlock key please and see if the light goes on and off
[14:12] <mib_ot1tne> *computer
[14:12] <Seiryuu> no
[14:12] <shubbar> I keep losing my wireless connection
[14:12] <Seiryuu> it wont work
[14:12] <shubbar> don't know if it's from the driver
[14:12] <ikonia> Seiryuu: ok, so thats very likley not down to the nvidia drivers
[14:12] <WalloO> Seiryuu, it lockup when X server is loaded?
[14:12] <shubbar> or the router
[14:13] <Seiryuu> well its just random
[14:13] <ubuntu> hi i'm trying to install ubuntu, but the installer always fails halfway and says that there was an I/O error.. what shoud i do?
[14:13] <ikonia> Seiryuu: have you ran a memcheck on your PC ? lockups are normally (note normally) hardware related
[14:13] <ikonia> ubuntu: run a disk check ?
[14:13] <wols_> Xpistos: that kinda stuff is tricky since WINS and those other MS protocols used for this are fscked up. do you know the DNS name of the windows machine you want to access or the iP?
[14:13] <ikonia> ubuntu: as in check the CD fr errors
[14:13] <WalloO> Seiryuu, random? have you checked if all your fans works correctely and all eatsinks are clean?
[14:13] <ubuntu> ikonia, i did that, no errors
[14:13] <wols_> ubuntu: run a smartmontools long check
[14:13] <Seiryuu> well u use to run Sabayon and i had no lock ups
[14:14] <Seiryuu> the memtest is fine
[14:14] <ubuntu> wols_, ok i'll try that package thanks
[14:14] <emil> If I have Ubuntu installed, what versions of software and drivers am I supposed to use?
[14:14] <wols_> ubuntu: smartctl. is on the livecd
[14:14] <wols_> emil: version and drivers for WHAT?
[14:14] <Xpistos> wols_The computer I am trying to connect to are called Athena and Zeus on the Olympus network
[14:14] <Aadith> hi..when i maximise some window in ubuntu it becomes much larger than the real estate available on screen...what should i do so that the maximised screen stys within the size of my screen?
[14:14] <Seiryuu> also yes my fans are working
[14:14] <WalloO> ikonia, it may come from overclock too... For example, if I overclock my 2.4Ghs CPU over 3.6Ghz, it will lockup on CPU consuming  programs.
[14:14] <ikonia> emil: I explained this to you a minute ago, did you not see my response
[14:15] <mib_ot1tne> Is there any command to set install start at 1024*768@60hz ? Becouse when i try instal ubuntu, its starts normal (under dos, 640x480 etc.) then when loading ends i getting "out of sync" error from monitor.
[14:15] <ikonia> WalloO: yes, so "hardware" as I've said
[14:15] <wols_> Xpistos: \\Athena in your favourite file browser. usually works
[14:15] <Seiryuu> i cleaned my heatsinks 2 days ago
[14:15] <emil> Wols: Everything. Let's say I have a bunch of Windows software like Cubase, Acid, Photoshop.
[14:15] <WalloO> ikonia, yes, that's pretty sure... :)
[14:15] <Xpistos> wols_: File browser as in Nautilus?
[14:15] <ikonia> emil: you're not using windows, it works differently. Let ubuntu manage the versions
[14:15] <wols_> emil: try to keep away from windows software under linux. use linux software instead if at all possible
[14:15] <wols_> Xpistos: yes
[14:16] <wols_> emil: you can run them under wine. or at least try tho. no guarantees
[14:16] <wols_> !wine | emil
[14:16] <WalloO> Seiryuu, I have a nvidia 8800gt and a 7600GT and it works very well. You probably have an issue somewhere with your hardware
[14:16] <wols_> WalloO: nvidia drivers have always be known to cause issues for certain people
[14:16] <emil> wols_: So all these windows based software would be useless then, unless I rty using wine.?
[14:16] <wols_> so it could very well be nvidia's fault
[14:16] <Seiryuu> im using the same setup when i had Sabayon installed
[14:17] <Seiryuu> everything was fine
[14:17] <WalloO> Wols_: I know for configuration, but never heard about it for random chrashing
[14:17] <Seiryuu> my v-card is a 6200
[14:17] <wols_> emil: yes. can your run Apple software for MacOSX on windows? can you run Amiga software on windows?
[14:17] <Seiryuu> wait let me see
[14:17] <threedee> Seiyuu: what dod you think of Sabayon?
[14:17] <Xpistos> wols_: that did not work
[14:17] <threedee> did
[14:17] <WalloO> Seiryuu, and when you don'T use nvidia driver, do you have the same issue?
[14:17] <wols_> emil: Ubuntu is a a NEW OS. iz REPLACES WIndows
[14:17] <Seiryuu> its good
[14:17] <emil> wols_: I have never used anything else than Windows, no need to be rude.
[14:17] <Xpistos> wols_:Should I try the ip instead?
[14:17] <Seiryuu> wow i forgot what card is in my system
[14:17] <mib_ot1tne> Is there any command to set install start at 1024*768@60hz ? Becouse when i try instal ubuntu, its starts normal (under dos, 640x480 etc.) then when loading ends i getting "out of sync" error from monitor. (I'm using HD4850)
[14:18] <threedee> Seiryuu: in what way?
[14:18] <wols_> emil: if you think I am rude, then we better stop talking ask for help someone else. good day
[14:18] <noobuntu> i checked cd integrity. it sais errors found in 1 file. what should I do now?
[14:18] <Seiryuu> how do i not use the nvidia drivers?
[14:18] <alhaddi> wols_, it says "Warning: device does not support Self-Test functions.", and then it says the test has begun.. not sure what that means
[14:18] <wols_> mlhshino: use the alternative CD
[14:18] <cong> hi
[14:18] <wols_> alhaddi: what command line?
[14:18] <ikonia> emil: don't worry, the differences can be a little daunting, just try not to think of ubuntu working in the same way as Windows
[14:18] <wols_> mib_ot1tne: use the alternative install CD (text based)
[14:18] <alhaddi> wols_, smartctl --test=long /dev/sdb
[14:18] <Xpistos> wols_:Or is there a file I can edit like the windows hosts file
[14:18] <wols_> alhaddi: looks good. what hdd is it?
[14:18] <alhaddi> hmm
[14:18] <alhaddi> seagate barracuda
[14:18] <Seiryuu> everything was stable i mainly use this as a server/ music player
[14:18] <alhaddi> ATA
[14:19] <wols_> Xpistos: what for? does ping Athena resolve?
[14:19] <Seiryuu> oh WalloO how do i not use the drivers?
[14:19] <wols_> alhaddi: seagates can do selftest. all of them. I have two myself. USB disk?
[14:19] <paines> hi
[14:19] <alhaddi> wols_, nope sorry, it's a samsung
[14:19] <wols_> Seiryuu: uninstall the nvidia drivers
[14:19] <wols_> alhaddi: unless it's a vrey very old one: same applies
[14:19] <Seiryuu> command line?
[14:19] <alhaddi> maybe 3 years old
[14:19] <Xpistos> wols_:Unknown host
[14:19] <paines> why is firefox 3 in kubuntu such a mess. crashes on startup, some websites won't work, about: shows firefox 1.9, info windows shows 3, 1000s of smal annoying thins. cehckboxes won't update on first clicks etc. under debian firefox3 hasn't as much issues, same for win32.
[14:20] <wols_> Xpistos: fix your dns then. what is the IP?
[14:20] <Extreminador> hi ppl
[14:20] <wols_> Xpistos: of athena that is
[14:20] <WalloO> Seiryuu, just go in menu->Administration->Hardware drivers, and un check your nvidia driver to have the green linght in the table red.
[14:20] <alhaddi> wols_, do i need to "smartctl --smart=on" first to enable it?
[14:20] <Xpistos> local <IP_ADDRESS>
[14:20] <wols_> Seiryuu: no more compiz or any 3D accel then however
[14:20] <Extreminador> what is the best text processor with an automatic language text corrector for ubunto ?
[14:20] <wols_> alhaddi: no
[14:20] <mib_ot1tne> wols_ i am very new on ubuntu and i dont know ubuntu much yet. How can i install ubuntu under text based ?
[14:20] <Seiryuu> its cool
[14:21] <wols_> Xpistos: then edit your /etc/hosts
[14:21] <Extreminador> i have the abiword but i don´t see any automatic text corrector
[14:21] <wols_> Xpistos: same file as windows in that regard
[14:21] <Xpistos> wols_: I will try that
[14:21] <Seiryuu> reboot correct?
[14:21] <wols_> Xpistos: then try \\Athena again
[14:21] <wols_> Seiryuu: no
[14:21] <wols_> !reboot
[14:21] <MattJ> mib_ot1tne: If you download the "alternate" version of the CD, it has a text-based installer
[14:21] <wols_> Seiryuu: unless you change hardware or kernels: never reaboot
[14:22] <Seiryuu> its telling me a reboot is needed
[14:22] <Seiryuu> brb
[14:22] <kcman> ere4si you still here brother?
[14:22] <wols_> it is wrong
[14:22] <wols_> restart X, that's all

[14:26] <Xpistos> wols_: Using //Athena I get cannot be displayed
[14:26] <alhaddi> wols_, didn't do anything different
[14:26] <wols_> Xpistos: smbclient -L <athena ip>
[14:26] <Aadith> when i maximise some window in ubuntu it becomes much larger than the real estate available on screen...what should i do so that the maximised screen stys within the size of my screen?
[14:26] <LinuxID10T> i have a hp nx5000 it freezes everytime i close the lid... does anyone know how to fix this?
[14:26] <Xpistos> wols_: O
[14:26] <wols_> alhaddi: then maybe try to turn smart=on
[14:26] <alhaddi> ok i'll try
[14:27] <wols_> alhaddi: but considering how new this disk is: strange, very strange
[14:27] <Aadith> but my machine has no component from samsung
[14:27] <alhaddi> wols_, yes i think something is happening now :D
[14:27] <wols_> so?
[14:27] <wols_> your disk is from them
[14:27] <alhaddi> wols_, thanks alot for the help
[14:27] <mib_ot1tne> Sorry MattJ i cant download anything currently becouse there is no operating system on my computer currently. Thats why i wanted ask is there any way to set linux start at 1024*768@60hz. I cant find a way to pass it, neirher i can try ubuntu, nor install it... Is there any site that i can find commands for ubuntu?
[14:28] <wols_> alhaddi: long test will take an hour or more
[14:28] <WalloO> LinuxID10T, is it possible your system over heat?
[14:28] <marijus> date
[14:28] <Aadith> i didnt quite get that...all disks are from samsung?
[14:28] <wols_> alhaddi: check results with -a again
[14:28] <alhaddi> alright
[14:28] <alhaddi> nice :)
[14:28] <wols_> Aadith: no, YOUR disk is so you have a samsung part in your PC
[14:28] <Extreminador> Is ther any text processor that includes a gramatic/fix spelling ??
[14:28] <WalloO> Aadith, sorry, I can't help
[14:28] <wols_> Extreminador: openoffice probably
[14:29] <Extreminador> wols_ ty
[14:29] <kcman> ere4si as it turns out i am way to tired to learn anything else new today so i am doing this the old fashion way i am just writing to disk and then installing for disk sounds like fun and simple to me for now so it works
[14:29] <Extreminador> i will check
[14:29] <ere4si> kcman: that's how I do it
[14:29] <Xpistos> wols:Okay I do that and it shows my shares in the computer, but then it says session request to 192..... failed Called name not preset
[14:29] <Aadith> i am sorry...i stil couldnt get...how do YOU say that MY disk is from samsung? i myself do not know who is the manufacturer
[14:29] <kcman> ere4si well i still wouldnt have decided to get this far if it werent for your help so thank you again
[14:30] <kayce> what channel would be for xorg related problems
[14:30] <ere4si> kcman: my pleasure to help - good luck
[14:30] <wols_> Xpistos: \\ip of athena in nautilus. and since you must use IP your hosts entry is most probably wrong
[14:30] <wols_> kayce: state your problem
[14:31] <Aadith> wols_ could you please explain?
[14:31] <kayce> i need my main user account to use the xorg.conf file that root uses but after an install in wine (Diablo 2), it seems to have set it to a compleatly different file
[14:31] <wols_> Aadith: explain what?
[14:31] <Xpistos> wols_: Says it cannot display that kind of location
[14:31] <Seiryuu> ok WalloO lets see how stable things run now
[14:31] <wols_> Aadith: you said you have nothing from samsung in your PC and that's patently untrue. your hdd is from samsung
[14:31] <wols_> Xpistos: then I dunno, sorry
[14:32] <kevinO> Kayce there is only 1 xorg.conf file
[14:32] <Aadith> but how do you say that it would definitel be from samsung?
[14:32] <kevinO> kayce, /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[14:32] <Xpistos> wols_:Let me ask you this last thing. I have a share on "Athena" bookmarked and that come up fine no matter what? Any ideas?
[14:32] <Aadith> actually iam using a HP laptop
[14:32] <penetrarthur> Hello, is it possible to open .iso, install it and run it
[14:32] <penetrarthur> Hello, is it possible to open .iso, install it and run it using wine ?
[14:32] <penetrarthur> srry
[14:33] <kevinO> penetrarthur,  yes
[14:33] <wols_> Xpistos: create more bookmarks. as I said: WINS is awful
[14:33] <penetrarthur> even if it consists of three parts ?
[14:33] <wols_> !iso | penetrarthur
[14:33] <kayce> corrent, but even when from root account i cant change how the main account i use to change its startup res, no matter how i configure the xorg.conf file (/etc/X11/xorg.conf)
[14:33] <wols_> penetrarthur: when it's mounted as described you can run stuff from it with wine
[14:33] <alhaddi> wols_, should i hear the disk working when the SMART test is running? i only heard it do something at the very beginning but now it's silent
[14:33] <Xpistos> wols_: thank you for your help my friend
[14:33] <penetrarthur> thanks a lot
[14:33] <wols_> alhaddi: yes
[14:34] <Aadith> still uncear wols_...anyway thanks for helping
[14:34] <alhaddi> argh
[14:34] <kevinO> kayce why are you using root account anyway
[14:35] <kayce> im the person that owns the computer, and not using root to change the res doesnt seem to work even with sudo in terminal
[14:35] <alhaddi> tried with -F samsung now, i think that did the trick
[14:35] <wols_> kayce: pastebin the Xorg.0.log
[14:35] <kayce> where would i find the .log
[14:36] <alhaddi> no, it stopped again :(
[14:36] <kevinO> kayce there is some grub commands you need to learn to chnagfe the boot screen resolution
[14:36] <kevinO> change*
[14:37] <kevinO> kayce boot re is handles by grub not xorg
[14:37] <kayce> its not the boot screen resolution im conserned about, thats fine, but when i log into my main account i use, the resolution changes as if its being read from another file
[14:37] <kevinO> boot resolution*
[14:37] <kevinO> oh
[14:37] <wols_> kayce: do what I told you please
[14:38] <kevinO> kayce, what does it say under System>Preferences>resolution?
[14:38] <alhaddi> wols_, can i somehow check why the disk stops checking after a while?
[14:38] <kayce> Screen resolution says 1024x768_53 but its actualy set at _75
[14:39] <kevinO> kayce, the log wols_ speaks of is at /var/log/Xorg.0.log
[14:39] <wols_> alhaddi: smartctl -a output
[14:39] <Xpistos> wols_:I used "smb://Athena/" and that did it. it still doesn't show under network, but can you say bookmark? Thanks again for getting me thinking
[14:39] <kevinO> kayce abd what res are you trying to get?
[14:39] <kevinO> and* / darn :P
[14:40] <kayce> 1024x768_75, in root it has no problem but when i log into my main account i use, it changes to _70
[14:40] <wols_> Xpistos: sorry. not really a nautolus user
[14:40] <kayce> found the file, just paste it in here or?
[14:40] <kevinO> kayce, paste bin]
[14:40] <kayce> errr, how would i do that
[14:40] <alhaddi> status "Aborted by host"?
[14:41] <kevinO> copy it and go to pastebin.com and paste it
[14:41] <kevinO> then give us the url in the address bar
[14:41] <kayce> ok

[14:41] <kevinO> bowl time
[14:42] <Pseudonym113> slt
[14:42] <kayce> paste.ubuntu.com/26893/
[14:43] <Pseudonym113> Salut
[14:43] <tofaffy> If I want to make a root parition seperate from /home, how big should it be?
[14:43] <MUST_KNOW> i have two questions . 1- if i install windows now how can i make a doul boot, 2- if i kave already windows installed how can i run windows from linux at the same time without using VMWare ?
[14:44] <Pseudonym113> for the second i don't know much
[14:44] <kevinO> wols_, can you take a look at http://paste.ubuntu.com/26893/ for kayce
[14:44] <Pseudonym113> but for the first u can edit the grub
[14:45] <MUST_KNOW> and how can i edit the grub boot loader ?
[14:45] <kevinO> edit menu.lst
[14:45] <Pseudonym113> what do you exactly want to do?
[14:46] <Pseudonym113> make linux the principal OS?
[14:46] <MUST_KNOW> i want to dual boot , windows and ubuntu , and want to know how to load windows while iam using ubuntu
[14:46] <wols_> kayce: what's your xorg.conf say?
[14:46] <wols_> MUST_KNOW: you can't. you need to reboot to run windows
[14:46] <kayce> do another postbin?
[14:46] <bazhang> MUST_KNOW, use vbox or other vm
[14:47] <Pseudonym113> by installing windows u automatically dual boot on them
[14:47] <MUST_KNOW> vbox for linux or windows ?
[14:47] <wols_> MUST_KNOW: for ubuntu
[14:47] <bazhang> MUST_KNOW, linux with windows in a vm
[14:47] <kevinO> ahh MUST_KNOW i see your previous question now, 1. install windows before linux, ubuntu will set your bootloader for you and 2. unless your going to use some virtual machine software, like vmware, your not going to run windows under linux
[14:47] <wols_> MUST_KNOW: but not everything might work in that vbox VM
[14:47] <gronne> I donloaded the latest amsn which was some sort of auto-installer.. it's called amsn-0.97.1-1.tcl84.x86.package... how do I execute a .package fiel?
[14:47] <kk> hi
[14:48] <WalloO> MUST_KNOW : it may be possible to run windows in a VM. However, windows genuine advantage will not be agree with you...
[14:48] <kk> i'm trying to install rtl8180 drivers
[14:48] <wols_> gronne: you don't. use the ubuntu repos
[14:48] <kk> where I can find them?
[14:48] <kk> i need the modules...
[14:48] <kevinO> WalloO, windows in a virtual machine works fine
[14:48] <wols_> !wlan
[14:48] <kayce> http://paste.ubuntu.com/26894/
[14:48] <kevinO> so does windows genuine advantage
[14:48] <yfk> I've got gray boxes whenever there should be flash with firefox, what causes this?
[14:48] <Pseudonym113> me too i have a question
[14:49] <Pseudonym113> it's my first time on IRC
[14:49] <MUST_KNOW> ok but if installed windows after installing ubuntu , how can i make a dual boot ?
[14:49] <gronne> wols_: yeah? but the latest version is not in the standard repos
[14:49] <Pseudonym113> and i dont have any idea how to get ana account
[14:49] <bazhang> !grub | MUST_KNOW
[14:49] <wols_> gronne: then ask the amsn folks
[14:49] <kevinO> MUST_KNOW, you need to boot the live disc and then run grub update i believe
[14:49] <wols_> gronne: and why do you MUST have this version?
[14:50] <wols_> kayce: why is this screen section there?
[14:50] <MUST_KNOW> hmmm, that was very usefull thanks guys
[14:50] <gronne> wols_: I don't know.. the one I have is quite bad, so I figured I'd give it a try
[14:50] <kayce> ?
[14:50] <wols_> kayce: in the xorg.conf file
[14:50] <Pseudonym113> can anybody lend me a hand please?
[14:50] <WalloO> kevin083, if you switch from VM to native, genuine advantage will not be agree
[14:50] <wols_> !ask | Pseudonym113
[14:50] <bazhang> Pseudonym113, to do what
[14:51] <Pseudonym113> its my first time in IRC
[14:51] <kayce> im not sure what you mean? im still pretty new to linux
[14:51] <Pseudonym113> i want to get me an account
[14:51] <bazhang> !register | Pseudonym113
[14:51] <alhaddi> wols_, smartctl -a says no errors, it prints one warning about "ATA Specification requires selective self-test log data structure revision number = 1".. could that be the problem? what happens is that the disk first starts working, then it "spins down", and then it works some more, then it just stops. all in 1-2 minutes
[14:51] <bazhang> Pseudonym113, read that link
[14:52] <wols_> aalso the disk is OK: did you check the CD integrity as ikonia suggested?
[14:52] <gronne> no idea how to install the file, wols_?
[14:52] <Pseudonym113> ty i will
[14:52] <bazhang> gronne, you will break package management that way
[14:53] <alhaddi> wols_, you mean me? yep i checked it, was fine
[14:53] <wols_> alhaddi: what is the exact error again?
[14:53] <alhaddi> the installer complains after a while of copying that there was an I/O error
[14:53] <kevinO> kayce, just wondering, have you installed any custom fonts?
[14:53] <gronne> bazhang: ok, but that file was available on their homepage as a suggested download...
[14:53] <Arbe> hi i need help with ubuntu
[14:53] <alhaddi> and it suggests a bunch of stuff to clean the CD, move to a colder workplace, etc
[14:54] <wols_> alhaddi: I said exact
[14:54] <bazhang> gronne, best to stick with the repos unless you can fix things under the hood
[14:54] <kayce> no custom fonts that i am aware of
[14:54] <Arbe> how do i find the start menu?
[14:54] <alhaddi> i have to check, brb
[14:54] <Arbe> and where is internet explorer?
[14:54] <bazhang> Arbe, there is no IE
[14:54] <Arbe> what? okay
[14:54] <wols_> Arbe: there is no internet explorer. there is firefox for example
[14:54] <Arbe> where is windwos explorer
[14:54] <Arbe> *windows
[14:54] <kevinO> kayce, what did you do just before this started to happen?
[14:54] <wols_> Arbe: Ubuntu is NOT windows. it's a different OS
[14:54] <Arbe> how do i find my C:\ drive
[14:54] <bazhang> arbe in ##windows
[14:55] <Arbe> i'm on ubuntu
[14:55] <gronne> bazhang: ok... it works poorly as is though... really annoying ads coming up all the time
[14:55] <kayce> i installed Diablo 2 under wine
[14:55] <Pseudonym113> i need to type this?
[14:55] <bazhang> Pseudonym113, in the server window not this one
[14:56] <kevinO> kayce anything else?
[14:56] <kayce> nothing else
[14:56] <kevinO> did you know diablo means the devil?
[14:56] <kayce> yes, its a game
[14:56] <cusco> hi
[14:56] <threedee> Arbe: The Start menu is replaced with menu labelled Applications Places and System
[14:56] <kevinO> :D
[14:56] <kayce> :)
[14:56] <kevinO> did you install any packages before wine to make it work?
[14:57] <cusco> any of you guys strugling with using another language dictionaries in AbiWord?
[14:57] <kayce> no, just sudo apt-get install wine as instructed on WineHQ
[14:57] <kevinO> whats the manufacturer of you video card?
[14:57] <kevinO> err who*
[14:57] <kayce> nVidia, i use a 7800GTX
[14:58] <kevinO> are you using restricted drivers?
[14:58] <cusco> I downloaded the dictionary file from http://www.abisource.com/download/abispell.phtml
[14:58] <kayce> yes
[14:58] <kevinO> your positive?
[14:58] <kayce> absolutely
[14:58] <cusco> extraced it and moved it to /usr/share/AbiSuite-2.4/dictionary/
[14:58] <cusco> I can't get the portuguese dictionary to work tho
[15:00] <kevinO> kayce, at this point if i were you i would try to reconfigure xserver, i would do dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg unless someone else has a better idea?
[15:00] <kevinO> anyone?
[15:00] <kayce> i have tried that
[15:00] <bazhang> for gutsy or hardy?
[15:00] <kevinO> hmm
[15:00] <kevinO> have you tried to generate a new xorg file altogether?
[15:01] <CaptainFrea> Can any of you guys gimme a hand finding a program that can open gfc files?
[15:01] <CaptainFrea> Like, A linux edition og GFCscape?
[15:01] <kayce> not sure how to do that? i may have
[15:01] <CaptainFrea> What's the package name.
[15:02] <kevinO> kayce there is a command to do it, lete me see if i can dig it up
[15:02] <iCEifer> hello, in terms of performance will xubuntu 8.04 run the same as xubuntu 6.06.1 LTS? same system requirements?
[15:02] <kayce> ok
[15:02] <CaptainFrea> Since they both use KDE 3, I think so.
[15:02] <Akallabeth> Hi there
[15:02] <CaptainFrea> hey.
[15:03] <iCEifer> CaptainFrea, thought so, it looks like ubuntu & kubuntu no longer have an older 6.x version, is this going to happen with xubuntu soon as well?
[15:03] <Akallabeth> does anyone know how I can change the color of the filenames on the desktop?
[15:03] <CaptainFrea> Most likely.
[15:03] <CaptainFrea> Not sure, tho.
[15:03] <Jav_ubu> soy nuevo en ubuntu, como instalo vlc en ubuntu??
[15:04] <CaptainFrea> jav_ubu: Use english please.
[15:04] <Akallabeth> !es | javatexan
[15:04] <bazhang> Jav_ubu, sudo apt-get install vlc
[15:04] <Akallabeth> javatexan: sorry, I meant Jav_ubu ;)
[15:04] <Chepra> hey! Where to find the channel for intrepid?: )
[15:04] <CaptainFrea> I seem to be the only one here not talking spanish.
[15:04] <Akallabeth> Chepra: #ubuntu+1
[15:04] <bazhang> #ubuntu+1 Chepra
[15:04] <Chepra> thanks
[15:05] <CaptainFrea> kevin0, how's that command coming?
[15:05] <kevinO> kayce, is the problem that when you play diablo, the res changes to a lower res?
[15:06] <kevinO> CaptainFrea, still looking
[15:06] <kayce> no, it happens when i log into my main account that i use
[15:07] <The-Compiler> Back, I was Akallabeth. Doesn't anyone know how to change the filename-font-colors?
[15:07] <CMDL1N3> hey
[15:07] <scoubidou4> hello. I have ubuntu 8.04 (hardy) and I compiled audacious 1.5.1.        My problem is that I can't open files anymore by double clicking on them. I need to open them by audacious itself. I looked in konqueror file association and everything seems ok... command is: "audacious %U"
[15:07] <bazhang> scoubidou4, why compile? it is in the repos
[15:08] <scoubidou4> version 1.5.1?
[15:08] <scoubidou4> I've seen only 1.5.0
[15:08] <bazhang> scoubidou4, any reason you need the very newest?
[15:08] <kayce> which is really confusing because it should be loading at 1024x768_75 instead of 1024x768_70, (not native mhz, stretches out the desktop to not fit the screen)
[15:08] <CMDL1N3> uh...i am booting off of a new kernel to enable SMP and it has not been stable at all..any ideas
[15:08] <scoubidou4> well, old versions are buggy (cannot control sound for some reason)
[15:09] <WarMaster> Hi all
[15:09] <WarMaster> I need help please
[15:09] <scoubidou4> but I made adacious 1.5.1 works perfectly this is not the problem...... it's all about file association
[15:09] <WarMaster> I am running win/ubuntu deual and I have formated my win partition
[15:10] <icqnumber> !ask | WarMaster
[15:10] <WarMaster> I got problem with grub loading it had formated now I recovered grub from live cd
[15:10] <WarMaster> but now I cant run win
[15:10] <WarMaster> grub start with stage2
[15:10] <WarMaster> and I cant mount the win partition
[15:11] <icqnumber> WarMaster, if you have formated you win partition you have no windows any more
[15:11] <kayce> WarMaster, you said you formatted your Win partition right?
[15:11] <WarMaster> I have reinstalled it
[15:11] <WarMaster> yes
[15:12] <WarMaster> and after reinstalling windows the grub gad gone but I recovered it with live Cd
[15:12] <icqnumber> WarMaster, so what did you do?
[15:12] <scoubidou4> so noboay knows why audacious 1.5.1 file association doesn't work with KDE?
[15:12] <ere4si> WarMaster: can you paste your /etc/X11/xorg file pls?
[15:12] <icqnumber> !grab | WarMaster
[15:12] <WarMaster> I cant start windows when I select it from the boot menu
[15:13] <icqnumber> WarMaster, have you seen this?
[15:13] <WarMaster> what ?
[15:13] <WarMaster> ah ok
[15:13] <ere4si> !grub
[15:13] <icqnumber> !grub | WarMaster
[15:14] <kevinO> kayce, heres what yoe can try. sudo cp /etc/X11/xorg.conf /etc/X11/xorg.conf.backup
[15:14] <kevinO> sudo dexconf
[15:14] <WarMaster> /etc/X11/xorg: No such file or directory
[15:14] <H__> xorg.conf i hope
[15:14] <kayce> kevinO, i'll try that
[15:15] <knoppix_> helo
[15:15] <CaptainFrea> One last question.
[15:15] <Fudus> I managed to remove the applications/places bar
[15:15] <Fudus> how do i get it back?
[15:15] <knoppix_> hi
[15:15] <CaptainFrea> I installed Joy2key, but it looks for my gamepad the bad place.
[15:15] <kevinO> if you need to reverse that if it doesnt work just type sudo cp /etc/X11/xorg.conf.backup /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[15:15] <CaptainFrea> How do i fix that-
[15:15] <kevinO> hkayce ^^
[15:15] <kevinO> kayce ^^
[15:15] <db92> how can i force refresh rate on ubuntu? ive been asking for ages :P theres gotta be a way to make the x server work @ 75hz instead of 60
[15:15] <knoppix_> i dont
[15:15] <kayce> kevinO :)
[15:15] <knoppix_> help me
[15:15] <kevinO> CaptainFrea, is your joystick at js0?
[15:16] <ikonia> knoppix_: what's the problem ?
[15:16] <db92> fudus5, you removed the menus from your panel?
[15:16] <fudus5> it was under "a custom menu bar"
[15:16] <fudus5> how... clear
[15:16] <knoppix_> I need configurations my linux
[15:16] <WarMaster> anyone
[15:16] <bazhang> fudus5, right click add to panel
[15:16] <ikonia> knoppix_: ok, what version of ubuntu are you using and what configuration do you want
[15:16] <alhaddi> wols_, the error message i get is "[Errno 5] Input/output error"
[15:16] <kayce> kevinO what to do now? restart and see if it works?
[15:16] <WarMaster> icqnumber,
[15:17] <kevinO> kayce yea
[15:17] <icqnumber> WarMaster, all you need to set up in grub ( gksu gedit /boot/grub/menu.lst )  where your windows partition is
[15:17] <kevinO> kayce
[15:17] <alhaddi> btw the formatting of the disk takes ~1 minute, which seems kinda fast
[15:17] <kayce> kevinO yes?
[15:17] <CaptainFrea> My gamepad is located at /dev/input/js0, but joy2key looks in /dev/js0
[15:17] <icqnumber> WarMaster, just read the link i gave you
[15:17] <kevinO> if it doesnt work, use that last command i gave you to get back
[15:17] <WalloO> alhaddi, 1 minute is slow...
[15:17] <WarMaster> where
[15:17] <alhaddi> WalloO, oh ok
[15:17] <marion_> I have a seperate partition for my /home directory. I had to reinstall the OS. How do I get the OS to use the existing users found on my /home?
[15:17] <WarMaster> I didint get it
[15:17] <kayce> sudo cp /etc/X11/xorg.conf /etc/X11/xorg.conf.backup  < you mean this?
[15:17] <kevinO> it just puts the original xorg back
[15:17] <kevinO> nope
[15:18] <kevinO> thats for backing it up
[15:18] <CaptainFrea> kevin0: My gamepad is located at /dev/input/js0, but joy2key looks in /dev/js0
[15:18] <bazhang> WarMaster, read the grub link above
[15:18] <kayce> ahh
[15:18] <kevinO> the other one is for restoring it
[15:18] <lance10> hi ...........i have trouble on deleting some files in trash ..........
[15:18] <WalloO> alhaddi, in windows it takes time because it checks the disk, but formatting is just a question of seconds
[15:18] <alhaddi> aah i see
[15:18] <kayce> Ahhh ok
[15:18] <kevinO> CaptainFrea, that should be relatively easy fix lemme see what i can find
[15:19] <alhaddi> when i look at the previous failed installations, they take up 1300MB exactly on the disk
[15:19] <kayce> kevinO ty much, i'll be back if it doesnt work, and if it does work, tyvm ^^
[15:19] <lance10> i have trouble on deleting some files in trash
[15:19] <alhaddi> could the CD be damaged, but still pass the CD check?
[15:19] <kevinO> ok
[15:20] <WarMaster> here it is :
[15:21] <WarMaster> # This entry automatically added by the Debian installer for a non-linux OS
[15:21] <WarMaster> # on /dev/sda1
[15:21] <WarMaster> title		Microsoft Windows XP Home Edition
[15:21] <WarMaster> root		(hd0,0)
[15:21] <WarMaster> savedefault
[15:21] <WarMaster> makeactive
[15:21] <icqnumber> WarMaster, this line --> rootnoverify (hd0,0)  , you have to replase it with your win partition hd0, hd1 is you hard drives, and last number is your partition on this drive, so for example, (hd1,2) means windows is on the third partition on the second drive
[15:21] <WarMaster> chainloader	+1
[15:21] <ikonia> WarMaster: please use the pastebin
[15:21] <doug_> hey guys im having a problem with evolution mail in which it is not showing my emails. it says that I have mail but will not display them.  When I toggle hidden with ctrl a  it shows one email the entire message but will not show more then one email any help

[15:21] <icqnumber> WarMaster, pastbin the output of: fdisk -l
[15:22] <WarMaster> ok
[15:22] <kevinO> CaptainFrea, try joy2key -dev /dev/input/js0
[15:22] <ikonia> sivik: if your in the command line - you've already booted, so you can't boot something else
[15:22] <kayce> kevinO it dident work
[15:22] <icqnumber> WarMaster, and i probably will tell you what to set up
[15:22] <kevinO> kayce, im sorry maybe someone else with more expierence can help later
[15:22] <sivik> ikonia: no, i'm trying to burn a cd thats in the form of .daa
[15:22] <herrmess> How do I know if firewall is loaded?
[15:22] <lance10>  i have trouble on deleting some files in trash
[15:22] <ikonia> sivik: ah cdrecord
[15:22] <ikonia> herrmess: have you set one up ?

[15:23] <kevinO> kayce im not as skilled as many here
[15:23] <ikonia> lance10: are they owned by root ?
[15:23] <kayce> kevinO thank you, you have been a huge help :)
[15:23] <sivik> i have cdrecord but how do i tell it to burn that disc correctly so it will bootabl
[15:23] <herrmess> ikonia: I ran ufw and installed firestarter too.
[15:23] <ikonia> herrmess: ok, so iptables -L should list the rules
[15:23] <WarMaster> here http://pastebin.ca/1070076
[15:23] <ikonia> sivik: have you looked at the cdrecord options in the man pagfe ?
[15:23] <ikonia> page
[15:23] <herrmess> ikonia: But how do I know if it's active?
[15:23] <kayce> kevinO it is the fact that you tried, ty very much
[15:23] <kevinO> :)
[15:24] <lance10> i don't no that ....... how do i find that
[15:24] <ikonia> herrmess: if its listed in iptables -L - its' active

[15:24] <TWP-SirStaal> Hello. I was about to install directx9 on my wine through winetricks and wrote the command "./winetricks directx9" but it tells me I don't have the permission, someone know what I am doing wrong?
[15:24] <lance10> what do i need to do .. i am new to ubuntu
[15:25] <ikonia> TWP-SirStaal: sudo
[15:25] <CaptainFrea> kevin0: I just had to get some food, but now i get a new error.
[15:25] <WarMaster> icqnumber,  http://pastebin.ca/1070076
[15:25] <herrmess> ikonia: I have lots of chains there, I assume if it's in INBOUND it's ok then. So iptables is loaded on boot?
[15:25] <CaptainFrea> kevin0: the be exact, i need to specify a target.
[15:25] <sivik> i do not see anything in the man pages and do not see anything about burning daa with cdrecord
[15:25] <kevinO> CaptainFrea,  after the cammand i gave you?
[15:25] <TWP-SirStaal>  sudo ./winetricks directx9
[15:25] <TWP-SirStaal> sudo: ./winetricks: command not found
[15:25] <ikonia> herrmess: yes
[15:25] <TWP-SirStaal> still not working
[15:26] <kevinO> CaptainFrea, ahh i get the same one
[15:26] <CaptainFrea> kevin0: Exactly.
[15:26] <kevinO> CaptainFrea, one sec
[15:26] <ikonia> TWP-SirStaal: you have to be in the same directory as winetraicks
[15:26] <herrmess> ikonia: Thanks. Very confusing, this... ufw and firestarter aren't so I assumed the rules aren't enforced either.
[15:26] <ikonia> herrmess: they are enforced
[15:26] <CaptainFrea> Can someone throw me a link to the pastebin?
[15:26] <[nix]> How do I get transparency working in pekwm? like the transparent background in a terminal
[15:26] <sivik> ikonia: i do not see anything in the man pages about it
[15:27] <sivik> CaptainFrea: www.pastebin.com
[15:27] <kevinO> pastebin.com
[15:27] <IdleOne> !paste | CaptainFrea
[15:27] <kevinO> lol
[15:27] <icqnumber> WarMaster, all you can try is (hd0,0) or (hd0,1) what windows version is it?
[15:27] <kevinO> CaptainFrea, are you trying to get a microsoft 360 controller to work by chance? if so there is a different process to get it to work
[15:28] <CaptainFrea> Kevin0: I suppose so, since my gamepad uses the same setup steps.
[15:29] <Junior> holaaaaaaaaaaa

[15:33] <CaptainFrea> http://paste.ubuntu.com/26901/
[15:33] <icqnumber> WarMaster, so have you fixed what?
[15:33] <CaptainFrea> Anyone can help me, i'm using a logitech chillstream .
[15:33] <ethereality> I do not have permission to write a file. The owner of the file is root. I attempted to change the file ownership to my user account, "daniel", by the following command in Terminal: "sudo chown daniel /media/sda1/Documents\ and\ Settings/Owner/My\ Documents/My\ Webs/dan/pages/jokes.shtml". I still cannot write the file. What is wrong?
[15:33] <doug_> where it has inbox it says 9 messages but does not show a list just the "INBOX (9)" but it doesnt show any messages in that panel, but next to that in the body section i can view one message that takes the entire screen.  and i cant switch messgaes without pushing next or delete
[15:34] <ikonia> ethereality: what is the file system on sda1 ?
[15:34] <bono> i fail sudo apt-get install secpanel
[15:34] <bono> http://paste.ubuntu.com/26902/
[15:34] <ikonia> doug_: I'd log a bug for that, I've never heard of that at all
[15:34] <ethereality> ikonia, ntfs
[15:34] <ikonia> ethereality: you need to mount it read-write
[15:34] <ikonia> !ntfs-4g | ethereality
[15:34] <kevinO> CaptainFrea, you will need to install the xbox 360 drivers for ubuntu
[15:34] <ikonia> !ntfs-3g | ethereality
[15:34] <ethereality> ikonia, i've already done that -- i can write most other files in that folder.
[15:35] <CaptainFrea> kevin0: You have a archive name handy?
[15:35] <kayce> kevinO, you still there?
[15:35] <kevinO> kayce yep
[15:35] <ikonia> ethereality: can you show me the output of ls -la on that directory, and put it in a pastebin pleae.
[15:35] <ikonia> please

[15:35] <CaptainFrea> I did that.
[15:35] <ikonia> !patience bono
[15:35] <kayce> kevinO do you know if i could like make a script or something that i could just click so it sets the res to my needed specs?
[15:35] <ikonia> !patience| bono
[15:35] <doug_> ikonia check this link same problem http://osdir.com/ml/debian.devel.evolution/2006-09/msg00002.html
[15:35] <kevinO> CaptainFrea, there are different sets of instructions out there so if that doesnt work let me know
[15:36] <kayce> i know its not a real solution but it could work temp till it can be actualy fixed
[15:36] <kevinO> kayce i dont know how to script
[15:36] <CaptainFrea> kevin0: I installed the ones linked in the post.
[15:36] <ikonia> bono: that looks like your machine is either not connected to the internet, or cannot resolve the archive host
[15:36] <kayce> heh, alright, ty again then xD
[15:36] <kevinO> CaptainFrea, just now?
[15:36] <kevinO> or before
[15:36] <CaptainFrea> kevin0: I tried before i consulted IRC.
[15:37] <kevinO> ok, did you modprobe?
[15:37] <kayce> goodbye again
[15:37] <bono> hm
[15:37] <bono> iko:maybe the latter one
[15:37] <bono> thanks
[15:37] <CaptainFrea> kevin0: indeed i did.
[15:37] <kevinO> CaptainFrea, ok do sudo cat /dev/input/js0
[15:38] <doug_> whoever is having issues with trash sounds like the files in question are owned by root
[15:38] <majortool> anyone know of a good program to intelligently sort music, change file names, id3 tags, grab album art, sort the music into directories, etc
[15:38] <majortool> ?
[15:38] <kevinO> and move the controls on your pad

[15:39] <ethereality> ikonia, http://paste.ubuntu.com/26903/
[15:39] <kevinO> so your controller is operating it seems, it the green light blinking?
[15:39] <ethereality> the issue appears to be those 1 and 2's
[15:39] <CaptainFrea> Kevin0: Currently not, nope.
[15:39] <WarMaster> icqnumber,
[15:39] <WarMaster> I still didnt fixed it
[15:39] <ethereality> as far as i can tell.

[15:43] <youssef_> hello
[15:43] <CaptainFrea> spiongraz: What happens?.
[15:43] <spiongraz> the screen turns all white and i cant do anything, what should i do, to be able to do anything again
[15:43] <ikonia> ethereality: what do they matter ?
[15:43] <ikonia> ethereality: thats nothing
[15:43] <d0t> CaptainFrea ;)
[15:43] <spiongraz> funny thing is, the screen is only white, but compiz still works ;d
[15:43] <ethereality> ikonia, i don't know. okay then. >_> i wonder why they're outputted, then.
[15:43] <ikonia> ethereality: don't worry about that
[15:43] <spiongraz> so i got a a funny white cube
[15:43] <ikonia> ethereality: let me know how "touch" goes
[15:43] <spiongraz> i have the latest hardy heron with all the recent patches
[15:44] <doug_> screw hardy that thing was buggy as hell for me
[15:44] <kevinO> Hardy must have xbox 360 controller support
[15:44] <d0t> i installed it on my usb and it works cool the thing is it's a live session user does it matter ? can i still install/uninstall things as usual ?
[15:44] <ikonia> d0t: sure
[15:45] <knoppix_> hola
[15:45] <ethereality> ikonia, i CD to "/media/sda1/Documents\ and\ Settings/Owner/My\ Documents/My\ Webs/dan/pages" and "touch test1" and the it acts like it accepted the command and returns another command prompt
[15:45] <Lounge> needs some help on encrypting the /tmp partition
[15:45] <ethereality> or did you mean a specific file?
[15:45] <ikonia> ethereality: great, so ls -la test1
[15:45] <ethereality> 'k
[15:45] <db92> spiongraz, white screen happens after you login?
[15:45] <ethereality> "-rwxrwxrwx 1 root root 0 2008-07-12 10:44 test1
[15:45] <ethereality> "
[15:45] <d0t> ikonia: but it does ask my for username and password therefore i don't know if i have all the privillages and so on..
[15:45] <Lounge> how do i encrypt the /tmp partition without screwing up the permissions?
[15:45] <spiongraz> idd right after login db92
[15:45] <ethereality> so it appears to be able to write perfectly fine, right?
[15:46] <d0t> sorry it doesn't.
[15:46] <ikonia> ethereality: now chown danial test1
[15:46] <kevinO> CaptainFrea, i just reinstalled ubuntu the other day, before to get my controller to work, i had to install all those drivers and modprobe the kernel. Now my controller just works with the new hardy version. and no annoying blinking light.
[15:46] <ikonia> ethereality: sudo first
[15:46] <db92> spiongraz, you upgraded your kernel recently?
[15:46] <spiongraz> i see the background picture and the upper bar for a second
[15:46] <spiongraz> and then white
[15:46] <ikonia> d0t: it asks for your password to authenticate you
[15:46] <kevinO> CaptainFrea, so all those drivers you installed were obsolete
[15:46] <spiongraz> i installed all the lates recommended updates yesterday
[15:46] <spiongraz> latest*
[15:46] <db92> do you have -proposed repositories enabled?
[15:46] <kevinO> CaptainFrea, install jscalibrator and see if it recognizes your controller
[15:47] <Lavir> /msg ubottu etiquette
[15:47] <spiongraz> i have no clue really
[15:47] <db92> and if so, what gfx card you got?
[15:47] <lacatus> hello
[15:47] <ethereality> ikonia, done. i right click -> properties -> permissions to check the file in nautilus, and it still lists "root" as owner.
[15:47] <spiongraz> i got a radeon hd2400
[15:47] <db92> well if you dont know, you most probly dont
[15:47] <db92> mm, radeons, i was certain
[15:47] <spiongraz> using the fglrx driver
[15:47] <ethereality> i'm checking now to see if i own any of the files in my own /home directory
[15:47] <ikonia> ethereality: can you check it with ls -la please.
[15:47] <lacatus> i am a new user
[15:47] <db92> spiongraz, through envyng?
[15:47] <db92> as the installer?
[15:47] <lacatus> caN SOME ONE TO HELP ME
[15:47] <ikonia> ethereality: I assume your still in the directory
[15:47] <ethereality> (yes, i do)
[15:47] <yipoo> i am a newer
[15:47] <ethereality> and yes, i am.
[15:47] <ikonia> lacatus: please ask you question and don't use caps
[15:47] <ethereality> ikonia, oh, right
[15:47] <ikonia> ethereality: ok, just checking
[15:47] <lacatus> OK
[15:47] <spiongraz> i just used the ubuntu tool
[15:48] <spiongraz> "want to activate restricted driver?" -> yes
[15:48] <kevinO> Breaking News!!!!!!   360 controllers work with ubuntu now :)
[15:48] <lacatus> i need a codec to play movie
[15:48] <ethereality> ikonia, correct: "-rwxrwxrwx 1 root root 0 2008-07-12 10:44 test1" nothing has changed.
[15:48] <kevinO> lol
[15:48] <yipoo> mac os
[15:48] <db92> spiongraz, mm idno
[15:48] <ethereality> the "sudo chown daniel [file]" command does not appear to function.
[15:48] <db92> spiongraz, the same thing happened to me after updating kernel and booting
[15:48] <CaptainFrea> kevin0: KDE has been seeing my gamepad all along.
[15:48] <lacatus> i use ubuntu
[15:48] <ikonia> ethereality: thats most interesting, you have write permissions - you can touch the file, and it creates, however you can't change the ownership.
[15:48] <spiongraz> i thought that
[15:48] <CaptainFrea> kevin0: it's only joy2key
[15:48] <spiongraz> i could maybe uninstall fglrx via the recovery console
[15:49] <ikonia> ethereality: could you show me "ls -lai" in a pastebin of that directory please.
[15:49] <kevinO> CaptainFrea, og
[15:49] <ethereality> ikonia, do you think upgrading to 8.04 may fix it? i'm still using 7.04.
[15:49] <kevinO> oh*
[15:49] <spiongraz> but somehow al my uninstalls dont do anything there
[15:49] <kevinO> LOL
[15:49] <offline> sudo chown username:usergroup [file]
[15:49] <ikonia> ethereality: initial I thought the escape chars was causing issues
[15:49] <db92> spiongraz, no reason, check if your fglrx drivers are 8-4 or 8-6, i cant remember how atm <>
[15:49] <ethereality> ikonia, i don't know what you mean by "the escape chars"
[15:49] <db92> spiongraz, should be visible in catalyst control center
[15:49] <ikonia> ethereality: I wouldn't upgrade for this - this looks reasonbly serious
[15:49] <spiongraz> point is
[15:49] <ikonia> ethereality: spaces basiclly
[15:49] <spiongraz> i cant get into catalyst control center ;d
[15:49] <spiongraz> im on windows right now
[15:49] <Lounge> has anyone successfully encrypted their /tmp partition without the "permission denied" hassle?
[15:49] <ethereality> (that's what i thought -- thanks) one moment ....
[15:49] <lgolebio> Hi, is it possible to unlock IPOD nano in ubuntu ? Somebody set a password code in my device
[15:50] <WarMaster> hmmmmmmmmmmm
[15:50] <spiongraz> i would just reinstall ubuntu tbh, cause its a fresh install anyway, but i downloaded loads of stuff already
[15:50] <ikonia> lgolebio: speak to whoever set the password
[15:50] <spiongraz> so i would love to fix this :/
[15:50] <db92> spiongraz, if you change session to failsafe gnome then login, it will boot
[15:50] <ethereality> ikonia, could it be because the pages directory is owned by root? and it's changing the .... i don't know, i'll just do that ls -lai command
[15:50] <lgolebio> anobody ?
[15:50] <db92> spiongraz, normally as if nothing happened
[15:50] <spiongraz> oh
[15:50] <db92> spiongraz, ELSE
[15:50] <spiongraz> oh yeah ill try that
[15:50] <db92> spiongraz, try going through recovery
[15:51] <d0t> ikonia: i tried to install bitchx (apt-get install bitchx) and reply i received was "13 permission denied.." "..are you root? "
[15:51] <spiongraz> btw
[15:51] <lacatus> i need a codec to play movie
[15:51] <db92> spiongraz, and use the xfix option
[15:51] <ikonia> ethereality: now, your in the directorys so the parent directory permissions shouldn't matter
[15:51] <spiongraz> been there done that
[15:51] <doug_> alright well i have to roll if anyone has any ideas please pm thanks guys
[15:51] <spiongraz> did nothing
[15:51] <lacatus> how do i get that
[15:51] <ikonia> d0t: sudo apt-get install bitchx
[15:51] <doug_> and gals LOL
[15:51] <spiongraz> btw before the white screen thingy happened
[15:51] <db92> spiongraz, kay then, just launch failsafe gnome
[15:51] <bazhang> lacatus, install ubuntu-restricted-extras
[15:51] <ikonia> d0t: be aware that I don't think bitchx s in ubuntu 8.04
[15:51] <db92> spiongraz, and try installing fglrx again
[15:51] <spiongraz> my login screen suddenly was lik e640x480
[15:51] <db92> spiongraz, sounds like a driver screwup, although i wouldnt be the one to actually know
[15:52] <icqnumber> WarMaster, have you reinstalled grub?
[15:52] <d0t> ikonia: i checked bitchx's site and that what is written there... but it's fine i'm happy with xchat :)
[15:52] <spiongraz> ok anyway, ill try the failsafe now, thx for now, maybe ill come back ;)
[15:52] <ethereality> ikonia, http://paste.ubuntu.com/26905/

[15:52] <ikonia> d0t: your call, irssi ?
[15:53] <ikonia> ethereality: ok, one thing to note, if your in the dir you just need to do ls -la .
[15:53] <ikonia> ethereality: you don't need to speciy the full path
[15:53] <ethereality> oh, 'k, thx
[15:53] <ethereality> brb
[15:53] <d0t> irssi ? never heard of it.. i'll google it..

[15:55] <CaptainFrea> kevin0: I'm going to try button's commands.
[15:55] <darthanubis> Devourer, htop, top, ps aux, gnome system monitor etc..
[15:56] <Devourer> darthanubis, what are those?

[15:58] <Mokoll> hey, does anyone know how to install new desktop-themes? im new to linux, sry
[15:58] <kevinO> CaptainFrea, good luck :)
 normally you can just drag the theme to the appearance-window
[15:59] <Shoopuf> Mokoll: Open the "Appearance" tab in your System/Preferences menu. Then take the .tar.gz theme and "drag n drop" it into the Appearance window.
[15:59] <CaptainFrea> kevin0: It calibrated.
[15:59] <ethereality> ikonia, sure

[16:01] <majortool> anyone know of a good program to intelligently sort music, change file names, id3 tags, grab album art, sort the music into directories, etc
[16:01] <majortool> ?
[16:01] <darthanubis> Devourer, so I can better tailor my future responses if I respond at all. You don't seem to be able to understand the answer I gave you to your question of "How do I determine if another pkg manager is running?" I gave you 3-4 apps that would determine that for you? You did not try a one.
[16:01] <WarMaster> icqnumber, grub> setup hd0
[16:01] <WarMaster> Error 11: Unrecognized device string
[16:02] <Devourer> darthanubis, Ooooo... You see, maybe because you didn't explain what they did.
[16:02] <darthanubis> Devourer, thats for your lazy self to find out
[16:02] <db92> Devourer, hes not obliged...
[16:02] <ethereality> >_>
[16:02] <ethereality> where in the world is carmen ikonia >_>
[16:02] <majortool> !root
[16:02] <darthanubis> db92, thx you
[16:02]  * ethereality misses his soulmate
[16:03] <db92> Devourer, he was even "kind" enough to be arsed to actually try to help :P
[16:03] <ethereality> lol @ ubottu
[16:03] <CShadowRun> is there any way to make ubuntu mount all drives automatically that are plugged in?
[16:03] <Devourer> db92, I guess I can misguide people in this channel as well. That is my new life's goal.
[16:03] <kevinO> CaptainFrea, great :)
[16:03] <d0t> ikonia: i run sudo apt-get install irssi.. everything went well.. but how do i execute the program?! where is it? :)
[16:04] <CShadowRun> It's strange, it does it with USB Drives, but it requires me to mount all the stuff thats physically plugged into the computer, makes no sense lol
[16:04] <db92> Devourer, its another thing to misguide another to actually guide someone to some point where they want it all laid on their hands
[16:04] <pcaldeira> org
[16:04] <Devourer> darthanubis, but I do appreciate you trying to deal with a 12 year old.
[16:04] <CaptainFrea> kevin0: But it still pops the same error.
[16:04]  * ethereality agrees with CShadowRun
[16:05] <CShadowRun> If anything it'd make more sense if it was the other way around (Then it'd be a security feature) But this way around is just plain...weird :S
[16:05] <kevinO> hmm, im not really sure then. you could try man joy2hey and see if theres anything there that will help, but i doubt it like buttons said its not very well documented
[16:05] <kevinO> CaptainFrea, ^^
[16:05] <kevinO> joy2key*
[16:06] <majortool> Devourer, what are you trying to do?
[16:06] <d0t> please help.. i used sudo apt-get install irssi it installed successfully but where did it install it ? and how do i execute the program ?
[16:06] <Devourer> I'm having a problem, I can't find a package manager that is running, I've already checked top and Gnome System Monitor, how can I find it?
[16:06]  * ethereality mourns his long lost ikonia
[16:06] <ken> d0t: open a terminal and type irssi
[16:07] <CaptainFrea> kevin0: So what now?
[16:07] <majortool> Devourer, do you know the name of the package manager?
[16:07] <Devourer> majortool, probably not.
[16:07] <d0t> thanks ken.
[16:07] <majortool> Devourer, ps aux|less
[16:07] <majortool> can you find it in that list?
[16:07] <ethereality> umm, my xchat toolbar is gone
[16:08] <ethereality> i realized this just now when i tried to go up to go to settings -> prefs and open my log of this chat
[16:08] <Devourer> majortool, that's a long list. Heh. What name should I be looking for, package manager?
[16:09] <ethereality> how do i get back my menu bar in xchat? >_>
[16:09] <Devourer> majortool, what about update-notifier?
[16:09] <Shoopuf> ethereality: Control-F9
[16:09] <pcaldeira> hi there, i just installed windows after ubuntu, and in addition to having overwritten grub, windows also seems to have erased the partition table
[16:09] <pcaldeira> on gparted, i only see the windows partition (im on live cd right now)
[16:09] <ethereality> Shoopuf, it's just f9, apparently. thanks so much! <3
[16:09] <ethereality> i was all "omgwtfnooo"
[16:09] <pcaldeira> the rest of the space is "unnallocated"
[16:09] <majortool> Devourer, i don't think so ... it'll likely be prefaced by /usr/sbin
[16:10] <ken> +i
[16:10] <majortool> Devourer, type "//usr/sbin"
[16:10] <pcaldeira> any idea how i can restore the partition table?
[16:10] <Mokoll> hey, can anyone tell me how to install compiz, or how to get a beryl-theme running?
[16:10] <jussi01> !compiz | Mokoll
[16:10] <majortool> Devourer, it's likely called synaptc
[16:10] <kevinO> CaptainFrea, when all else fails try rejoystick
[16:11] <majortool> anyone know of a good program to intelligently sort music, change file names, id3 tags, grab album art, sort the music into directories, etc?
[16:11] <Xerxes> does ubuntu support multiple screens?
[16:11] <majortool> Xerxes, yes
[16:12] <kevinO> CaptainFrea, http://downloads.sourceforge.net/rejoystick/rejoystick_0.8-1_i386.deb?modtime=1206546993&big_mirror=0
[16:12] <jussi01> !dualhead | Xerxes
[16:12] <Devourer> majortool, I don't think I see a synaptic, at least anything starting with /usr/sbin/ didn't have anything with synaptic in it.
[16:12] <pcaldeira> hi there, i just installed windows after ubuntu, and in addition to having overwritten grub, windows also seems to have erased the partition table... how can i recover it?
[16:12] <makkbe_> Xerxes: if you graphic card does so, yes
[16:12] <amenado> Xerxes-> multiple screen is done by X servers..
[16:12] <Kwiwaa> I want to multiple screen too, 1 workspace by screen, is it possible ?
[16:12] <Soul_Sample> could somebody try to identify a terminal application off of screenshot for me?
[16:13] <Shoopuf> If I try to use the PulseAudio Sound Server it says "audiotestsrc wave=sine freq=512 ! audioconvert ! audioresample ! gconfaudiosink: Failed to connect: Connection refused"
[16:13] <majortool> Xerxes, you have to have the driver for the card. this will likely be a proprietary driver and may come with a configuration utility to help
[16:13] <majortool> Soul_Sample, hit me
[16:13] <Lavir> People, please tell, how to make "Behold TV 505FM" TV-tuner work?
[16:13] <Soul_Sample> majortool: http://img291.imageshack.us/img291/4471/terminalshv7.png i'm interested in the system monitor (dl, ul, cpu and the rest) on the right
[16:13] <amenado>  im trying out sakai  which has tomcat server integrated on it, are the scripts supposed to be u+x ? it seems like all the scripts in bin/  like for example the startup.sh or setclasspath.sh are just perms 644
[16:14] <IndyGunFreak> Lavir: what chipset is it?
[16:14] <Xerxes> majortool, without explaining why... If I were to have 12-16 screens, would it be prudent to hire someone to program the required drivers?
[16:14] <majortool> Devourer, can you paste bin that?
[16:14] <Lavir> IndyGunFreak: Erm... Don't remember... And what common actions are?
[16:14] <IndyGunFreak> Lavir: erm, then how do you expect to get help>?
[16:14] <bazhang> Soul_Sample, top
[16:14] <majortool> Xerxes, ha ha ha ... no ...
[16:15] <bazhang> Soul_Sample, oops conky
[16:15] <Devourer> majortool, I can't select it all. :\
[16:15] <Xerxes> I watch the market and would like to switch from windows to ubuntu mostly for security reasons.
[16:15] <pcaldeira> majortool: can you help me?
[16:15] <Soul_Sample> bazhang: well, i have conky but it has it's own gui representation, is there a way to run it in a terminal?
[16:16] <Kwiwaa> Does anyone know if it's possible to have multiple screens, with 1 workspace/screen ?
[16:16] <SebNaitsabes> Xerxes:  I just joined here, but  I wonder why your here
[16:16] <majortool> Devourer, ps aux > ~/Desktop/pastebin.txt
[16:16] <CaptainFrea> i bound a to one of my buttons in rejoystick.
[16:16] <majortool> pcaldeira, sup?
[16:16] <Xerxes> I'm hoping to learn if ubuntu can do the same thing I am currently doing with windows.
[16:16] <CaptainFrea> but it  won't seem to work.
[16:16] <SebNaitsabes> Xerxes: which is?
[16:17] <bazhang> Soul_Sample, what about dstat
[16:17] <pcaldeira> majortool: <pcaldeira> hi there, i just installed windows after ubuntu, and in addition to having overwritten grub, windows also seems to have erased the partition table... how can i recover it?
[16:17] <Xerxes> I run 12 screens currently with windows.
[16:17] <SebNaitsabes> as in monitors?
[16:17] <Xerxes> yes
[16:17] <SebNaitsabes> why 12?
[16:17] <pcaldeira> in gparted i only see the windows partition now... the rest of the space is "unnallocated"
[16:17] <Soul_Sample> bazhang: well, i'm looking at the screenshot again now... maybe that on the right IS conky, but set up to look like that. the guy told he had 5 terminals onscreen and i was sure that this was a terminal as well. maybe it isn't
[16:17] <SebNaitsabes> 12 screens for one install of Windows seems crazy to me
[16:18] <majortool> Soul_Sample, i think that's an app provided by whatever desktop this user is using
[16:18] <Xerxes> I could use another 4 screens but I'm waiting until the next gen of monitors come out in 3-4 years.
[16:18] <Xerxes> When you watch the world markets, the more the better.
[16:18] <SebNaitsabes> so you use some special hardware so you can do 12 screens?
[16:18] <IndyGunFreak> lol
[16:18] <Xerxes> It's specialized, yes, the video cards are matrox and have two dvis that each split into two
[16:19] <SebNaitsabes> the more screens the better when watching the markets why?  screens aren't that expensive
[16:19] <Xerxes> My Mb has 4 x16 video slots, 3 of which I use.
[16:19] <SebNaitsabes> Ubuntu isk nown for good hardware suppourt yes
[16:19] <SebNaitsabes> ,but for what your doing I woudn't be to sure it would work
[16:19] <bazhang> Soul_Sample, you can get superkaramba (kde) screenlets (with gnome) or gdesklets (gnome) the one on the right is conky
[16:19] <pcaldeira> majortool: do you know how to do it? recover the partition table?
[16:19] <Devourer> majortool, nevermind. I got it pasted. http://pastebin.com/d65c1997c
[16:19] <majortool> pcaldeira, it's likely going to say that because whatever partition utility you're using doesn't like linux ... you need a boot disk
[16:19] <gabriele> hi
[16:19] <SebNaitsabes> however you can find out by botting a computer from a Live CD
[16:20] <Soul_Sample> bazhang: okay, thanks. i'll look more into modifying of conky. i guess it can more than i saw on the first try
[16:20] <pcaldeira> majortool: the partition utility is gparted which im running from ubuntu live cd right now
[16:20] <pcaldeira> (also known as partition editor)
[16:20] <bazhang> Soul_Sample, just modify the conf file for conky
[16:20] <Jack> hy
[16:20] <Jack> someone here
[16:20] <Jack> ???
[16:20] <SebNaitsabes> Xerxes: did you read my three messages above,  I didn't put your name before them so
[16:21] <Shoopuf> !ask | Jack
[16:21] <Jack> kk
[16:21] <Xerxes> seb: I don't suppose you know how long it would take to custom program it?
[16:21] <Jack> Did someone know something about Nubuntu
[16:21] <majortool> pcaldeira, you may be toast dude ... i would try launching a linux boot disk(the gentoo disk is small and exaclty what you need ... ask others if they would recommend something else) ... and just see if you can mount the partition
[16:21] <Jack> ?
[16:21] <Xerxes> I mean, there's gotta be some savvy entreprenurs around these parts.
[16:21] <bazhang> Jack, that is not supported here
[16:21] <SebNaitsabes> Xerxes:  you can try with a Live CD to see if  it works or not yes
[16:22] <SebNaitsabes> Xerxes: and if not as a tempory souloution I have a few ideas
[16:22] <pcaldeira> majortool: i can't mount the partition from ubuntu live cd :\ i guess i won't be able to do it with gentoo either
[16:22] <SebNaitsabes> Xerxes: if you want Linux
[16:22] <Jack> I know, but in the Nubuntu channel is nobody
[16:22] <pcaldeira> i'll look for a recovery cd
[16:22] <pcaldeira> to try and recover the table
[16:22] <bazhang> Jack, get the real deal at www.ubuntu.com and then we can talk
[16:22] <Fri13> Hi! I have now fighted one hour googling and trying to get 8.04.1 to find my wlan, but seems that ubuntu does not allow connection to open network. (do not ask why it is open because there is no threat about security).
[16:22] <SebNaitsabes> Xerxes:  so it is just one computer connected to 12 screens?
[16:22] <Jack> Yep
[16:22] <Xerxes> yeah.
[16:23] <SebNaitsabes> Xerxes: and if Ubuntu does not have drivers for hardware,  it is very difficult to make them if the company behind them have not made the specs public
[16:23] <Xerxes> It's been suggested to me to use that computer as a backdrop, or what I look at constnatly and dont' change, and have a faster computer for gaming that would be 2 8800fx cards.
[16:23] <bazhang> Xerxes, it may work depending on if there are drivers for those cards.
[16:23] <Xerxes> Seb, Ahh.  That is discouraging. :/
[16:24] <SebNaitsabes> yep it should work if there are drivers for the hardware
[16:24] <SebNaitsabes> and to find that out
[16:24] <SebNaitsabes> boot the computer from a Herdy Heron Live  CD
[16:24] <bazhang> Xerxes, this is an active support channel; do you have a problematic ubuntu install or just wish to chat
[16:24] <Xerxes> Hmm, do you think contacting the manufactor could tell me whether they support unix systems?
[16:24] <Fri13> Why ubuntu does not support open WiFi networks but demands somekind security until it can connect?
[16:24] <poller> Hi, i have a problem with aticonfig and dual head setup. When running aticonfig to rewrite my xorg.conf file, everything works great. Except one thing. New windows are opened on top of my gnome menu.
[16:24] <majortool> Devourer, i don't see anything in here dealing with a package manager ... everything you've started since 9:30 seems to be regular apps
[16:24] <Xerxes> bazhang, I'm being actively supported, thank you.
[16:24] <bazhang> Xerxes, SebNaitsabes please chat in #ubuntu-offtopic
[16:25] <majortool> Devourer, it may be saying a package manager is running because a pid file wasn't properly deleted
[16:25] <SebNaitsabes> yeah Xerxes let's go over there
[16:25] <SebNaitsabes> since  people in here get all well
[16:25] <SebNaitsabes> when things go off topic
[16:25] <Shishire> I'm looking for a program that has similar functionality to Mathematica, but obviously, for ubuntu.  I don't really know where to start looking.  Any suggestions?
[16:25] <spiderfire> how can i use compiz with fluxbox or xfce?
[16:26] <bazhang> !equivalents | Shishire look here
[16:26] <Shishire> perfect
[16:26] <Shishire> thatnks
[16:26] <Shishire> er, thanks
[16:27] <Lavir> Hi again. Please tell how to make "Behold ЕМ 505FM" TV-tuner (SAA7134HL decoder) to work?
[16:27] <Devourer> majortool, what's a pid file?
[16:27] <bazhang> Lavir, which chipset
[16:27] <wols_> Devourer: process ID
[16:27] <serverbox> im having an issue with my ftp server. im using gproftpd and everything is configured properly. however when i try to access the server from a different computer all i get is an empty tree. the folder being shared is actually full of files
[16:27] <Devourer> Oh.
[16:27] <wols_> bazhang: SAA7134HL
[16:27] <Lavir> bazhang: SAA7134HL, yes.
[16:28] <Devourer> majortool, would you like me to send the errors for when I try and update with aptitude?
[16:28] <deeperror> i've got nc6000 hp laptop and not sure how to detect if bluetooth device is working?
[16:28] <bazhang> Lavir, have you checked the hardware compatibility list?
[16:28] <deeperror> i get No bluetooth interface found
[16:28] <Fri13> Why ubuntu does not support open WLAN connections anymore but demands WPA/WPA2 etc?
[16:28] <bazhang> Fri13, it does
[16:28] <ikonia> ethereality: hi, sorry I had to pop away for a few minutes
[16:29] <bazhang> Fri13, is the essid hidden?
[16:29] <ethereality> yaaaaaay you're back ikonia i'm so happy.
[16:29] <legend2440> Shishire: mathomatic is in synaptic
[16:29] <majortool> Devourer, please
[16:29] <Shishire> Perfect, found Maxima.  TYVM
[16:29] <ikonia> ethereality: apologies, where are you up to
[16:29] <ethereality> uhhh
[16:29] <majortool> Devourer, you can pm me
[16:29] <Fri13> bazhang: No it does not give "open" as option. SSID is shown and all other machines can connect with Windows or other Linux distribution used.
[16:29] <ethereality> the trying something pointless bit, ikonia
[16:29] <ikonia> ethereality: what I'd like to do is unmount your ntfs partition if possible please.
[16:29] <ethereality> O_O
[16:30] <ethereality> but but but ..... that smells of death and destruction
[16:30] <bazhang> Fri13, where is this? in the cli or gui
[16:30] <ikonia> no no
[16:30] <Devourer> majortool, and I did use sudo when executing this command. http://pastebin.com/d6be67e3e
[16:30] <Jack> Is there no pentest package for ubuntu like Backtracks pentest?
[16:30] <Fri13> bazhang: GUI of course... I'm not yet planned to do it by CLI... it should work by GUI.
[16:30] <ikonia> Jack: nmap does some
[16:30] <bazhang> jack what is that
[16:30] <Jack> What Backtrack or pentest?
[16:31] <majortool> Devourer, ls /var/lib/dpkg
[16:31] <ikonia> Jack: penetration testing
[16:31] <majortool> Devourer, pm me that
[16:31] <ethereality> ikonia, would that be "sudo umount /media/sda1"?
[16:31] <Jack> nmap is one of over 100 testing tools
[16:31] <ikonia> ethereality: thats right yes
[16:31] <corq-FL> Jack: I'll get you a link - ubuntugeek site has a list so you make make your own ubuntu pentest toolset
[16:31] <ethereality> (it's my windows partition, by the way)
[16:31] <ikonia> ethereality: make sure you have no-one in that directory
[16:31] <bazhang> Fri13, it does work; what is the nic on that and what have you tried, errors, etc.
[16:31] <ikonia> ethereality: ok, thats fine
[16:31] <Jack> thx
[16:31] <ethereality> ikonia, what after i unmount it? and what do you mean, make sure no one's in it? you mean accessing it?
[16:31] <Lavir> bazhang: no, but as I remember, it is not compatible.
[16:31] <ikonia> ethereality: before you did cd /media/sda1 - your "in it"
[16:32] <ikonia> ethereality: or nautilus having it open
[16:32] <Fri13> bazhang: nic? No erroes, it just does not give option to choose "open", only a WPA/WPA2 etc as security, so it cant connect
[16:32] <corq-FL> Jack, http://tinyurl.com/667zxb
[16:32] <Jack> corq-FL i need becaus I know Ubuntu well, and Backtack also but I want Ubuntu and not Backtrack
[16:32] <bazhang> Fri13, which gui is this you speak of
[16:32] <Jack> corq-FL THX
[16:32] <corq-FL> Same here; some of the tools are beyond my skillset yet, but here you can pick and choose
[16:33] <ethereality> ikonia, done.... now what?
[16:33] <majortool> Devourer, nm ... try sudo rm /var/lib/dpkg/lock
[16:33] <ikonia> ethereality: ok, now how did you mount it before ?
[16:33] <Fri13> bazhang: The default one, system > administration > network or the icon in systray
[16:33] <corq-FL> I'm working on setting up a ubuntu "honeypot" today, just for giggles
[16:33] <ethereality> ikonia, i did what people here told me to do to install ntfs-3g
[16:33] <ikonia> ethereality: yes, but how did you then mount it once it was installed ?
[16:33] <ethereality> ikonia, it involved gedit and some file i think
[16:33] <scholzen> hi all, i need your help. i hava a raid1 system with mdadm. now i had a disk failure, and had to exchange a disk. now i'm in a rescue system (its a dedicated server). how to mirror all the partitions of the working drive on the new (clean) drive?
[16:33] <bazhang> Fri13, network manager?
[16:33] <Devourer> majortool, what is that going to do??? O.o
[16:34] <ethereality> ikonia, i don't understand what you're asking me.
[16:34] <Fri13> bazhang: "Networking" so it might be that then.
[16:34] <sirjoebob> hello all.. i am running conky with the python weather script and was wondering if anyone could help me set the temperature to display in fahrenheit instead of celsius?
[16:34] <ikonia> ethereality: what command did you use to mount the disk ?
[16:34] <ethereality> ikonia, i really don't know how to mount things.
[16:34] <Jack> sounds good
[16:34] <bazhang> Fri13, this is a bug you believe then?
[16:34] <ikonia> ethereality: ok so "sudo mount -t ntfs-3g /dev/sda1 /media/sda1
[16:34] <Devourer> majortool, I did it.
[16:34] <majortool> removes the lock file ... the lock file is just empty.   apt-get is just checking that the file exists ... if a program had it locked before, and died, it may not have deleted the lock file
[16:35] <majortool> Devourer, try your apt-get
[16:35] <obiter> anyone able to help setting up mythtv?
[16:35] <ethereality> ikonia, done.
[16:35] <ikonia> ethereality: no warnings ?
[16:35] <ethereality> no.
[16:35] <Devourer> majortool, I get the same error.
[16:35] <ikonia> ethereality: ok, thats good, thats what I wanted to check
[16:35] <bazhang> obiter, the front end, back end or which; please clarify
[16:35] <ikonia> ethereality: so now try your tests in /mnt/sda
[16:35] <majortool> Devourer, are you sudo apt-get ...?
[16:36] <ethereality> ikonia, you mean /mnt/sda1 ?
[16:36] <majortool> Devourer, or # apt-get?
[16:36] <obiter> I don't know bazhang ... the front end runs though.   I press 'watch tv' and nothing happens
[16:36] <Devourer> majortool, well, I did sudo aptitude but then I tried sudo apt-get and I still got an error.
[16:36] <ikonia> ethereality: sory yes
[16:36] <Devourer> majortool, I'm not root. I'm sudo.
[16:36] <obiter> there is a dvico card installed
[16:36] <ethereality> ikonia, "bash: cd: /mnt/sda1: No such file or directory"
[16:37] <Lavir> bazhang: No, it's not compatible. Does it mean that it can not work with it?
[16:37] <bazhang> obiter, when you say runs, could you clarify what you mean by that? your tv card is working etc?
[16:37] <ikonia> ethereality: /media/sda1 sorry
[16:37] <ethereality> ikonia, -- yeah, about to ask that.
[16:37] <majortool> Devourer, try going to a persistent root login "sudo -i" then "apt-get ..."
[16:38] <obiter> bazhang the tv card works in windows, I don't know how to varify if its working in ubuntu
[16:38] <Devourer> majortool, alright, but I heard that being root isn't really ever necessary. Hehe.
[16:38] <ethereality> ikonia, i cd to directory, do the touch test1 thing, do ls -la, and it seems i can write to it and that everything is owned by root.
[16:38] <tk2> hi all, I'm getting all kinds of 404s and repository not founds while trying to upgrade 6.10 -> 7.x What's the recommended way around this? I'm running Edgy but want to upgrade and it seems to want access to the edgy repositories...
[16:38] <ikonia> ethereality: try chowning it
[16:38] <bazhang> Lavir, not much experience with that card; the ones I know a bit about are hauppage
[16:39] <Jack> tk2 upgrade to 8.04
[16:39] <Jack> tk2 type in terminal sudo apt-get dist-upgrade
[16:39] <majortool> Devourer, this case may be an exception and although there is no necessity to shell root, it's convenient so don't let retarded monkeys tell you not to
[16:39] <tk2> Jack: happy to do that do but my impression is you need to do it step by step?
[16:39] <bazhang> Fri13, can you open a terminal and connect to that router?
[16:40] <ethereality> ikonia, "chown daniel test1" enters but does nothing. should it be "daniel:daniel" or something?
[16:40] <Raoni> flooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooood xP
[16:40] <H__> question : how do I prevent 'adept updater' from continuously suggesting to upgrade 1 package I patched and installed manually (vice) which is also available in the ubuntu repositories ?
[16:40] <Raoni> wow 1026 users :O
[16:40] <ikonia> ethereality: you dont have to use a group, but you can do
[16:40] <bazhang> Raoni, please dont
[16:40] <Jack> I do it so, from 6.06 LTS to 8.04
[16:40] <ikonia> Raoni: flodo ?
[16:40] <ikonia> flood
[16:40] <Fri13> bazhang: Nope, ubuntu does not allow anykind connections
[16:40] <Jack> Everything is stable no problems with nothing
[16:40] <MXIIA> Isn't 8.04 rather buggy? 7.10 is better supposedly.
[16:40] <poller> Hi, i have a problem with aticonfig and dual head setup. When running aticonfig to rewrite my xorg.conf file, everything works great. Except one thing. New windows/applications are opened without a "border", so i cant move them around. And they are opened over my gnome menu.
[16:40] <bazhang> Fri13, what command did you enter in the terminal?
[16:40] <Jack> tk2
[16:40] <Fri13> I can find on others machines that WLAN is working (sniffering packets) but it does not know any networks if they are open.
[16:41] <Devourer> majortool, haha ok. It worked fine now. No errors...
[16:41] <Devourer> majortool, odd.
[16:41] <Raoni> bazhang: sorry I just was thinking that it could be a really mess here with 1206 users wow
[16:41] <Jack> tk2 on the official site of ubuntu, there are the upgrade solutions
[16:41] <tk2> Jack: I guess 6..06 is LTS - 6.10 doesn't seem to be as even running dist-upgrade I've got 404s from security.ubuntu.com and archive.
[16:41] <bazhang> Raoni, if you wish to chat #ubuntu-offtopic is good for that
[16:41] <ethereality> ikonia, neither chown, sudo chown, daniel, or daniel:daniel does anything.
[16:41] <Raoni> bazhang: ^^ kk
[16:41] <ikonia> ethereality: thats exceptionally odd
[16:42] <ethereality> i can pastebin to prove it >_>
[16:42] <ethereality> (or more strongly state it.)
[16:42] <majortool> Devourer, thank you for proving the point that SUDO SUCKS .. apt-get was forking another process to the user running sudo not the user running apt-get ... ghey
[16:42] <bazhang> Fri13, I am assuming this is your own network you are connecting to?
[16:42] <ikonia> ethereality: I don't doubt
[16:42] <Fri13> bazhang: I'm writing a article about Ubuntu's development. THis just is very wierd thing because GUI does not offer than WEP and WPA secured networks
[16:42] <Devourer> majortool, hahaha. It works for he most part I guess.
[16:42] <Fri13> bazhang: Yes, one of few. All others finds out but not unsecure
[16:42] <bazhang> Fri13, that is simply not correct.
[16:42] <ArrPirate> I've been running into an interesting problem with ubuntu lately
[16:42] <ethereality> ikonia, should i create thread at ubuntuforums at this point?
[16:42] <jay2> I think it is about time to kick some microsoft ass by making better and more software then them :)
[16:43] <ethereality> jay2... done.
[16:43] <Fri13> bazhang: I believe something is very terrible wrong if not even GUI offer a "Open" as security option.
[16:43] <majortool> jay2, welcome to yesterday
[16:43] <ikonia> ethereality: I'd log a bug, I suspect it's because your using an earlier version of the ntfs-3g driver, but I can't be certain
[16:43] <jay2> haha lol
[16:43] <obiter> bazhang the tv card works in windows, I don't know how to verify if its working in ubuntu
[16:43] <bazhang> Fri13, please cease. that is simply not true.
[16:43] <ethereality> ikonia, don't know how to log a bug other than create a thread and yell HALP >_>
[16:43] <ArrPirate> If I have firefox open and try to watch a video file the video file would have no sound... but if I have a video file open and I open firefox then firefox won't be able to use sound, like if I go to youtube all the videos will be silent
[16:43] <ArrPirate> what could be wrong?
[16:43] <ikonia> ethereality: thats a pretty bad way, "yelling help" normally gets you ignored
[16:44] <ikonia> ethereality: the best way is to log fact, details and fact
[16:44] <Fri13> And when going with iwconfig, ifconfig and dhclient to set network settings, it still does not connect. I check if problem is then on router settings, chaning it to WPA2 mode.
[16:44] <Jack> tk2 go to http://ubuntu.com/getubuntu/upgrading#head-db224ea9add28760e373240f8239afb9b817f197
[16:44] <ethereality> but i don't yell help. i yell HALP. sooooo much difference.
[16:44] <ikonia> !launchpad | ethereality
[16:44] <ikonia> ethereality: that sort of behaviour will get you little help
[16:44] <bazhang> obiter, have you read the ubuntu wiki? or asked in #ubuntu-mythtv yet?
[16:44] <Jack> tk2 there are informations to upgrading
[16:44] <jay2> I still think that there needs to be a lot more done like some of my connections whos got alot of money just to keep that in mind
[16:44] <ikonia> ethereality: I'm trying to advise you and guide you and your making petty jokes
[16:44] <ethereality> ikonia, i'm joking (sort of) ... i basically describe the problem in as much detail as i can, and log everything i've done and conversations
[16:45] <tk2> Jack: thanks, will take a peek
[16:45] <obiter> yes - no,  I'll go there
[16:45] <legend2440> poller: what worked for me was running the three commands on this page in order (you need to put  sudo in front). you might want to back up your xorg.conf  first    http://www.fedoraforum.org/forum/showthread.php?t=124634
[16:45] <ikonia> ethereality: visit launchpad.net - open an account and log a bug
[16:45] <Tux2K8> does anyone here uses sshguard?
[16:45] <ethereality> doing ......
[16:45] <IndyGunFreak> ArrPirate: lot of people report that problem... some say its a problem w/ Flash and pulse-audio.
[16:45] <Fri13> bazhang: Actually I try ubuntu to this one laptop (what I used to sniff it networking packgets) if it works with Intel WLAN chip.... thanks for your help.
[16:45] <Jack> k
[16:45] <ArrPirate> IndyGunFreak: Ah. Thanks.
[16:46] <Jack> what the command aptitude means
[16:46] <Jack> ?
[16:46] <jay2> so lets all keep that in mind it would help all of us in the long run
[16:46] <ikonia> Jack: it's an interface to the package manager
[16:46] <jay2> :)
[16:47] <Jack> Ah, normaly I install the programmes with apt-get install, and not with aptitude
[16:47] <jay2> and I think the money can go to a good use by helping out the ubuntu group :)
[16:47] <Jack> ;)
[16:48] <SebNaitsabes> Jack:  apptitude and apt-get are nearlly the same thing
[16:48] <SebNaitsabes> Jack: so you can use the apptitude command or apt-get to install programs
[16:48] <Jack> ah and whats the little difference
[16:48] <Jack> ?
[16:48] <ikonia> Jack: try them, see what you like
[16:48] <SebNaitsabes> Jack: more hardcore Ubuntu and Debian users tend to like apptitude, and apptitude can do a bit more
[16:49] <Jack> thanks
[16:49] <jay2> but is keep up the good work and microsoft sucks :)
[16:49] <Jack> Jop
[16:49] <SebNaitsabes> yep MS suck, but  most qualifcations around here use MS :(
[16:49] <jay2> :(
[16:50] <ikonia> jay2: thats not a great attitude - if you don't like microsoft, thats fine, but the channel doesn't need to hear about it
[16:50] <majortool> jay2, actually it's all me ... i invented linux and i hand coded every line in vi(which i initially coded by using a magnet and hard drive)
[16:50] <SebNaitsabes> for example to get a Level 3 in ICT I would have to actsually learn Visual Basic it seems :(  well that's if I go the college route
[16:50] <Jack> Thats true
[16:50] <bazhang> !ot
[16:50] <SebNaitsabes> !ubottu bazhangidiot
[16:51] <ikonia> !kick SebNaitsabes attitude not appropriate
[16:51] <jay2> k
[16:51] <Devourer> !love
[16:51] <jay2> interesting I think
[16:51]  * jay2 now really confused
[16:52] <jay2> here I figured I could get some donations to the company to help out with a good cause
[16:53] <majortool> donate to the james baron off shore bank account
[16:53] <SebNaitsabes> !botabuse | ikoma
[16:53] <jay2> k
[16:53] <majortool> a little goes a long way
[16:53] <ikonia> majortool: please drop it
[16:53] <ikonia> SebNaitsabes: pardon ?
[16:53] <majortool> ikonia, yes stalin
[16:53] <ikonia> majortool: please drop the attitude, you've been told this conversation is offtopic
[16:53] <bazhang> majortool, please stop
[16:54] <majortool> ikonia, you rule this channel with an iron fist, eh?
[16:54] <ikonia> majortool: please don't be silly with responses like stalin, your being asked politly
[16:54] <majortool> k ill leave
[16:54] <jay2> sorry if am too :(
[16:54] <ikonia> jay2: not a problem
[16:55] <Administrator_> can't install UBUNTU please help me! anyone
[16:56] <Jack> when i want to use tree screens with a triple head to go on ubuntu, is that working or not
[16:56] <ikonia> Administrator_: what's up
[16:56] <bazhang> Administrator_, have you md5'd the iso? and done an integrity check on the disk?
[16:56] <ikonia> Jack: if your card and drivers support it, sure
[16:56] <Administrator_> yes , the disk is fine
[16:56] <Jack> ikonia thx
[16:57] <Jack> ikonia i have no more questions for the moment ;)
[16:57] <ikonia> Jack: (intels work well for this as an aside)
[16:57] <tung> Administrator_: can you be more specific
[16:57] <anakin6> ciao
[16:57] <Jack> cu
[16:57] <anakin6> !list
[16:57] <Administrator_> yes , when i try to install ( or use live-cd ) i receive an error : unable to execute /bin/sh
[16:58] <Administrator_> i've tried using the rescue mode under alternate disk, and it got stuck in the middle
[16:58] <majortool> I just wanted to add, there is no reason to treat everyone like children.  I don't believe that any of the conversations were interrupting/impeding others from doing what is the purpose of this chat room to do.  You're requests are unreasonable, and I have spent the morning helping people here.  If you would please be so kind as to lick my balls and then treat everyone nicely, I would really appreciate it.
[16:59] <tung> Administrator_: have you tried a clean install
[17:02] <icqnumber> majortool, i agree. but well you are gone
[17:02] <ungamed> Hello, can someone help me with a ntfs fakeraid I want to map? it's activated with dmraid, but I'm not able to mount it (Tells me that: $MFTMirr error: Invalid mft record for '$MFT'.)
[17:02] <ungamed> not map, mount offcause
[17:03] <ajax7and7> hi need to know of either a download or a how to i have a second hdd it reads in installation it was my windows files i just need to access the mp3 and pic's  how do i do that through ubuntu?
[17:03] <Mixx> I haven't used my gutsy x64 install in a while.  When I boot up my monitor shuts off.  is there any way for it to automagically detect my monitor and supported modes?
[17:03] <veododo> Hi.
[17:04] <lakshmanan> hey
[17:04] <veododo> Is this the right place if I have a problem with sound on my laptop? (fresh installed Hardy)
[17:04] <veododo> Ot
[17:05] <veododo> It's working but the sound is very low (and i already set everything to max in all pannel
[17:05] <ShinjinAkage> I have a file in my Trash bin that when I delete it I get the error "Error removing file: Permission denied" how can I delete it?
[17:05] <icqnumber> ungamed, have you try ntfs-conf tool, it is a gui tool to mount ntfs partitions
[17:06] <ungamed> icqnumber: nope, I'll try it right away, thx :)
[17:06] <Gnea> ungamed: did you run ntfsfix on it?
[17:06] <icqnumber> ungamed, ntfs-config it is called http://flomertens.free.fr/ntfs-config/screen.html
[17:07] <ungamed> Gnea: nope
[17:07] <Gnea> ungamed: ntfs-config is good. ntfsprogs has the fix along with some other helpful tools
[17:08] <Gnea> !ntfs-3g | ungamed
[17:09] <jpratt> how do i get flash
[17:09] <jpratt> woops Java
[17:09] <ungamed> the ntfs-config doesnt find the /dev/mapper/nvidia_xxxxxx entry
[17:09] <icqnumber> ungamed, sudo apt-get install ntfs-config, the simplest way
[17:09] <IndyGunFreak> jpratt: its in the repos.
[17:09] <Gnea> !java | jpratt
[17:10] <Gnea> ungamed: you can ignore that, ntfs and video drivers have nothing to do with each other (in linux anyway)
[17:10] <icqnumber> ungamed, do you start it with, gksudo ntfs-config?
[17:11] <arcsky> stuff i install with apt-get does it go to folders /var and /usr maybe more?
[17:11] <ungamed> but it's my nvidia software raid, I activate it with dmraid and it creates the (usually) mappable entry under there
[17:11] <ungamed> not video driver
[17:11] <Administrator_> can't install UBUNTU please help me! anyone ? please help
[17:11] <jpratt> There is a way i was told to do it once before in terminal something about sun-java-nonfree or something like that
[17:11] <Devourer> !ask | Administrator_
[17:12] <ungamed> why do I insist to call it map.. I mean mountable
[17:12] <icqnumber> Administrator_, what is exactly the problem?
[17:13] <keith-> is ndiswrapper the only way to get bcm4311 rev2 working in ubuntu?
 receives an error : unable to execute /bin/sh
[17:15] <jpratt> theres a terminal way to download and install Java from sun, Thats the way i want to know how to install please help i know it works
[17:15] <wols_> jpratt: ask sun, but not #ubuntu
[17:15] <wols_> kawachan: no
[17:15] <icqnumber> Administrator_, your installation media must be corrupt
[17:15] <jpratt> Why when it was in here i was told how to do it before?
 but the disk checks itt self
[17:16] <keith-> jpratt: you need multi and uni enabled
[17:16] <Gnea> ungamed: i'm not sure
[17:16] <wols_> jpratt: why is ubuntu's versin not good enough for you?
[17:16] <wols_> cause if you install from sun.com it might break all dependencies
[17:16] <keith-> jpratt: sun-java6-jre is the name of the package you need
[17:16] <jpratt> Because the way i was told before i know works is all
[17:16] <legend2440> Administrator_: browse the ubuntu install cd. are there a bunch of files there or just an .iso file?
[17:16] <wols_> jpratt: very bad choice
[17:16] <wols_> !java
[17:17] <keith-> wols_: that's a stupid question.  and a horrid answer.  try to be productive.
[17:17] <wols_> keith-: what is?
[17:17] <keith-> "is ubuntu's java not good enough for you"
[17:17] <keith-> there's still stuff that won't run with it
[17:17] <wols_> keith-: such as?
[17:17] <keith-> oh i'm sorry
[17:17] <aslam> why does banshee 1.0 make the selected song white and can't see any of its info
[17:17] <kvik> Hi all I want to setuip a IRC server any ide to me, it have to be easy, i'm not so hardcore to linux yet :)
[17:17] <keith-> i think i misread this
[17:17] <ungamed> Gnea: no, me neither, I'll try to see if the 3g is better, or at least gives me more luck
[17:17] <DarkAudit> keith-: and some packages depend on sun's version anyway
[17:17] <keith-> wols_: i apologize.
 iso , i can get the CD to start but i can't get it to work
[17:18] <x_chany_x> Hi mazafuckers
[17:18] <wols_> !b43 | keith-
[17:18] <jpratt> Thank you Keith-
[17:18] <Kelen> Is that possible for WoW running in ubuntu?
[17:18] <keith-> wols_: b43 isn't working
[17:18] <legend2440> Administrator_: if there is an iso file in there its not burned right. there should be files and folders in there
[17:18] <wols_> Kelen: yes via wine
[17:18] <wols_> !doesn't work
[17:18] <DarkAudit> Kelen: yes, very much so :)

[17:20] <Kelen> Is that only way for WoW running in ubuntu with wine?
[17:20] <DarkAudit> Kelen: I use the -opengl flag at the end of the launcher, and turn some of the video settings down, but it runs quite nicely
[17:20] <Amaranth> Kelen: yep
[17:20] <legend2440> Administrator_: when you browse the cd is there an iso file in there or a bunch of files and folders?
 bunch of files
[17:20] <veododo> didn't blizz ban people using wine because of the 3rd party tool policy ?
[17:20] <rchase> how do I add screen resolutions to hardy heron?
[17:21] <db92> veododo, old news are old
 pool,pics,isolinux.....
[17:21] <Amaranth> Kelen: http://appdb.winehq.org/objectManager.php?sClass=version&iId=11329
[17:21] <DarkAudit> Kelen: there's a frame rate hit in the cities and in some raid encounters, but otherwise it runs quite well... sometimes better than native windows
[17:21] <legend2440> Administrator_: oh ok i misunderstood. and you did the cd integrity check?
[17:21] <db92> veododo, some of these banned were actually given a free 20 days as... i cant find the english word for it :P
[17:22] <DarkAudit> with fluxbox, in eversong woods on Dark Iron, I sat latency in the low 70s and up to 100fps

 yes, the disk supose to be fine
[17:22] <db92> veododo, some were given 20 days as compensation, but indeed the linux wow bans were true. although this is not the place for such chat as this is support chan :P
[17:22] <veododo> yeah
[17:22] <DarkAudit> Kelen: you use ventrilo?
[17:23] <veododo> i still need to figure out how to get correct output volume from my laptop >.>
[17:23] <kvik> "HELP" Hi all I want to setuip a IRC server any ide to me, it have to be easy, i'm not so hardcore to linux yet :)
[17:23] <Kelen> DarkAudit: no, real ubuntuer.  lol
[17:23] <bloodrock> Administrator_, it starting but then freezes if so you might try pressing f6 then selecting acpi=off and noacpi as additional boot options
[17:23] <Amaranth> Kelen: It says to just start with -opengl and if you have performance problems there is a registry tweak you can do, otherwise it should work perfectly
[17:23] <veododo> tryed lot of different sound settings program, put everything to max, still nothing
[17:23] <DarkAudit> Kelen: http://forums.worldofwarcraft.com/thread.html?topicId=2200220013&sid=1 for running Ventrilo voice chat

[17:23] <atlef> hello again peeps
[17:23] <atlef> 1
[17:24] <veododo> is there a way to fake higher volume than your sound card is suppose to deliver?
 i've tried , there is an option to install that way and no help
[17:24] <atlef> veododo: if you have an external amplifier then yes.
[17:24] <veododo> i had that on my drivers for winxp
[17:24] <MrWizeGuy1983> does nobody know anything about amsn?
[17:25] <veododo> no, it's for laptop, that's why it's hell :D
[17:25] <xxor27h> hi to all !

[17:26] <Shoopuf> I'm lookin' for more of a Paint level. :)
[17:26] <MrWizeGuy1983> DarkAudit, it's better yes, but it works :-)
[17:26] <Shishire> Does anyone know how I can set  wine to have CAP_NET_RAW?
[17:26] <bloodrock> Administrator_,  damn is it an older computer
[17:26] <MrWizeGuy1983> DarkAudit, do you know anything about amsn?
[17:26] <DarkAudit> MrWizeGuy1983: yes, yes it does. :)
[17:26] <DarkAudit> MrWizeGuy1983: never heard of it until you mentioned it
[17:26] <xxor27h> can anybody help me with printer instaling ?
[17:26] <mrken> Ello, ok to fire away a n00b question here folks?
[17:27] <MrWizeGuy1983> DarkAudit, it works for msn messenger with voice and video on linux, but the audio video plugin is failing
[17:27] <wols_> mrken: if it deals with ubuntu yes. and you never need to ask to ask
[17:27] <wols_> !printing | xxor27h
[17:27] <MrWizeGuy1983> wols_, maybe you know something about amsn?
[17:27] <db92> MrWizeGuy1983, randomly asking rarely works :P
[17:27] <wols_> no. I doN't want to touch MS network protocols if I can help it
 thx
[17:28] <MrWizeGuy1983> db92, what does?
[17:28] <wols_> !patience
[17:28] <wols_> that does
[17:28] <Shoopuf> MrWizeGuy1983: What about it? I was quite disappointed with it, just installed it about 2 hours ago. It was a bit unresponsive and the menus acted funny.
 any ideas?
[17:28] <db92> MrWizeGuy1983, waiting sometimes, or google research
[17:28] <bloodrock> Administrator_, did you try a wubi install
[17:28] <wols_> Administrator_: any error?
[17:28] <MrWizeGuy1983> db92, i've come in here before many times to help and get help, it's almost always better than google
[17:28] <db92> Shoopuf, better than pidgin :P
yes , same error : unable to execute /bin/sh
[17:29] <mrken> Ok thanks.   I plan on getting started with ubuntu but I wanted to try installing it on a 4 gig usb key first (shopping for one since my last one was swiped )and practice blowing my foot off with that for a week or two before committing to the real thing.  Is there a tutorial available on this and can anyone reccomend a fast stick?
[17:29] <wols_> Administrator_: what are you doing exactly that leads to the error message?
[17:29] <db92> MrWizeGuy1983, it just feels like it because its quite direct, type && instant answer (ideal cases), yet i tend to find + info on google
[17:29] <atlef> MrWizeGuy1983: any reason you want amsn or are you open to suggestions? kopete is great
[17:29] <bloodrock> Administrator_, is it a cd-rw if so might try reburning it
[17:29] <wols_> !usb install
[17:29] <wols_> !usb
 but no one of my printers there (
[17:29] <mrken> LoL apparently thats asked alot. Thanks gents.
[17:29] <wols_> xxor27h: unless you start with specific problems no one can help you
[17:30] <MrWizeGuy1983> atlef, i just want it for audio video, does kopete work for voice chat?
 entering my CD after burning ubuntu on it, press liveCD / or thourhg wubi, and receives this message
[17:30] <Shoopuf> db92: Either way there's no Linux IM programs that support "appear offline" and "offline message" MSN functions. :(
[17:30] <wols_> Administrator_: what is the last thing before the message?
 : nope CDr
[17:30] <db92> Shoopuf, amsn has offline messaging o0
 i have a screen shot, can i send it here somhwo?
[17:30] <atlef> MrWizeGuy1983: no, but video is supported
[17:31] <db92> Shoopuf, and from what i see, appear offline aswel, at least from my menu
[17:31] <MrWizeGuy1983> atlef, what has audio for msn messenger on linux that isn't crappy?
[17:31] <bloodrock> Administrator_, use a pastebin
[17:31] <bloodrock> !pastebin
[17:31] <MrWizeGuy1983> atlef, i tend to prefer pidgin, i use it on windows too, but it doesn't have audio and video
 what ? ?
[17:32] <shady> hey guys, while installing ubuntu as a dual boot with a pre-existing XP config. I think something went wrong with windows, when i tried to boot back into windows i got <Windows root>\system32\ntoskrnl.exe file missing or corrupt....what happened here?
[17:32] <bloodrock> Administrator_, read what ubottu just posted
 how can i do that?
[17:33] <MrWizeGuy1983> shady, you can probably boot to "safe mode" and click no to run system restore

[17:35] <MrWizeGuy1983> atlef, amsn does but it seems quite poorly programmed, any ideas on making it work?

 any real ideas of solving?
[17:36] <gravyface> running Ubuntu 6.06.2 LTS and do not have sysctl installed apparently?
[17:37] <gravyface> on my other box running 7.04, I checked and it throws "The program 'sysctl' is currently not installed.  To run 'sysctl' please ask your administrator to install the package 'procps'"
[17:37] <bloodrock> Administrator_, welll it to me seems as though it's a bad burn make sure you burn any iso at at 4x speed only
[17:37] <gravyface> checked the 6.06 box and the package procps is already installed.

[17:44] <Sergeant_Pony> I get a hal failed ti init on login, any ideas how I can fix this?
[17:45] <Amun> icecube1234: install it, but you need a different boot loader
[17:45] <bazhang> icecube1234, install then repair grub
[17:45] <Zeu> how to rename a file in console ????
[17:45] <bloodrock> icecube1234, you need to load xp then ubuntu xp will wipeout the grub boot loading
[17:45] <Amun> and you must not install it on the same HD as ubuntu, or else it will eat it up.
[17:45] <PmDematagoda> Zeu mv old-file-name new-file-name
[17:45] <GPT> Zeu: mv <oldname> <newname>
[17:45] <PmDematagoda> lol GPT
[17:45] <GPT> lol PmDematagoda
[17:45] <icecube1234> i have 1 hd only
[17:45] <Zeu> GPT 10x  ;)
[17:45] <guillaume_> anyone has vmware on hardy?
[17:46] <bloodrock> icecube1234, you can install xp then get an iso called supergrub
[17:46] <jussi01> !grub | icecube1234 - use the tutorial here after install
[17:46] <guillaume_> ***same install from before upgrading to hardy
[17:46] <djhash_> icecube1234: you install windows XP on a different partition.. then get yourself EasyBCD
[17:47] <icecube1234> thanks all i'll start with installation now , hope nothing w'll brake :)
[17:47] <jussi01> icecube1234: :)
[17:47] <bazhang> icecube1234, back up first
[17:47] <icecube1234> bazhang: sure :)
[17:47] <wols_> guillaume_: cannot work, hardy has a new kernel
[17:48] <bazhang> :)
[17:48] <guillaume_> wols_: ok, then how can I uninstall the previous one that's still there somewher
[17:49] <wols_> guillaume_: like any other package
[17:50] <wols_> guillaume_: but vmware not working has nothing to do with that old kernel at all. the new one misses the vmware kernel module
[17:50] <wols_> !vmware
[17:50] <azeristan> ïðèâåòû
[17:51] <absurdistan> hello
[17:51] <jussi01> hi

[17:51] <wols_> guillaume_: notsupported here. ask vmware
[17:52] <Jman> hey guys i have a question
[17:52] <jussi01> Jman: ask!
[17:52] <absurdistan> anyone with shell scripting experience ?
[17:52] <Jman> how come COD is saying video drivers dont support alpha?
[17:52] <wols_> !anyone | absurdistan
[17:52] <wols_> absurdistan: #bash
[17:52] <Algyz> when vmware will be available on hardy?
[17:52] <wols_> absurdistan: never
[17:52] <absurdistan> ok
[17:52] <wols_> Jman: COD is what?
[17:52] <bazhang> Algyz, hardy supports vbox much better now
[17:52] <Jman> Wols: Call of duty
[17:52] <Jman> 4 at that
[17:53] <wols_> Algyz: never
[17:53] <absurdistan> i've created 2 scripts
[17:53] <wols_> Jman: glxinfo |grep direct
[17:53] <absurdistan> one for autoadd and enable new site for apache
[17:53] <wols_> Jman: als check appdb.winehq.com
[17:53] <ikonia> Jman: you may want to check wine's supported application
[17:53] <Jman> ok
[17:53] <absurdistan> second for removing
[17:53] <Jman> gotcha thanks
[17:53] <guillaume_> will "apt-cache seach" will seach in MY installed pakage?
[17:53] <gaelfx> can anyone tell me how to install the gutsy kernel in hardy?
[17:53] <wols_> absurdistan: a2ensite
[17:53] <ikonia> gaelfx: no, just the repo's
[17:53] <ikonia> gaelfx: dont try to do that
[17:53] <absurdistan> wols_
[17:53] <PmDematagoda> gaelfx, what for?
[17:53] <ikonia> gaelfx: why do you want to do that ?
[17:54] <absurdistan> adding web site works fine
[17:54] <bazhang> guillaume_, dpkg -l for what you installed with apt
[17:55] <absurdistan> removing doesn't
[17:55] <absurdistan> this is list

[17:55] <gaelfx> or is that not possible?
[17:55] <_acid> How are you all?
[17:56] <abchirk> mh well good :)
[17:56] <ikonia> gaelfx: it's not a good idea, why do you want gutsy kernel in hardy
[17:56] <wols_> gway9000: answer the question ikonia asked
[17:56] <PmDematagoda> gaelfx: it may be possible, but what advantes are there?
[17:56] <wols_> gaelfx: ^^
[17:56] <absurdistan> executing that says sudo: unable to execute ./unsite.sh: No such file or directory
[17:56] <absurdistan> anyone knows why ?
[17:56] <gway9000> wha
[17:56] <gaelfx> it's either that or or I do a fresh install of gutsy
[17:56] <_acid> How do I get more chat rooms in IRC
[17:56] <ikonia> absurdistan: you need to be in the same directory
[17:56] <wols_> absurdistan: use a2dissite!
[17:56] <ikonia> gaelfx: no - why do you want this
[17:56] <PmDematagoda> gaelfx, what exactly is the problem with Hardy's kernel?
[17:56] <gaelfx> and I would frankly rather not put my hd through that again
[17:57] <gway9000> wols_: what/
[17:57] <ikonia> gaelfx: if you don't respond, we can't help
[17:57] <guillaume_> sudo apt-get remove vmware-server
[17:57] <wols_> gway9000: was for gaelfx
[17:57] <gway9000> ahh
[17:57] <bazhang> !irc | _acid read the last bit
[17:57] <gaelfx> my problem is the freezing and inconsistent connection to the net
[17:57] <absurdistan> ikonia sudo sh -x ./unsite.sh works fine
[17:57] <PmDematagoda> gaelfx: are you using wireless or wired?
[17:57] <wols_> absurdistan: ubuntu already comes with a script for this task
[17:57] <ikonia> absurdistan: where is specify the full path "sudo /path/to/unsite.sh"
[17:58] <absurdistan> ikonia its in users home dir
[17:58] <ikonia> gaelfx: ok - so lets resolve that if possible rather than go on wild missions to install gutsy into hardy
[17:58] <ikonia> absurdistan: so specify to a users home dir
[17:58] <superhut> is there a solution yet to the rhythmbox bug which displays wrong genres?
[17:58] <PmDematagoda> gaelfx: could you also give your specifications in Pastebin and paste the link here?
[17:58] <theRealBall> what is a good lightweight window manager?
[17:58] <gaelfx> why is it such a bad idea?
[17:58] <animeloe> xfce
[17:58] <bazhang> theRealBall, flux openbox
[17:58] <animeloe> or fluxbox
[17:58] <ikonia> gaelfx: hardy is built around a different "version"
[17:58] <Xpistos> How do edit permissions for my samba shares
[17:58] <ikonia> gaelfx: thats the short answer
[17:59] <guillaume_> I try to uninstall a pakage now... and I get this: guillaume@guillaume-laptop:~/src/VMWare/vmware-server-distrib$ sudo apt-get remove vmware-server

[17:59] <bazhang> theRealBall, got a link?
[17:59] <gaelfx> ikonia: my connection is so bad right now that it only loads these messages every 30 seconds or so, that's why I can't respond
[17:59] <wols_> theRealBall: CDE is anything but good
[17:59] <animeloe> guillaume_: your using the apt-get somewhere else
[17:59] <guillaume_> sorry I know paspin
[17:59] <gaelfx> please be patient
[17:59] <ikonia> gaelfx: no problem we are patient
[17:59] <_acid> Thanks
[17:59] <animeloe> look to see if your synapix package manager is launched
[17:59] <ikonia> gaelfx: what network card do you have, it's wirless I assume
[17:59] <guillaume_> http://pastebin.com/m7aa9e951
[17:59] <bazhang> theRealBall, or do you mean kde
[18:00] <theRealBall> wols_: yea but it works
[18:00] <wols_> guillaume_: you already got the answer
[18:00] <wols_> theRealBall: every WM "works". CDE is useless
[18:00] <PmDematagoda> gaelfx, instead of putting in the gutsy kernel, I think its safer to put in 2.6.25 or a flavour of 2.6.24 of your own
[18:00] <theRealBall> no not kde something with a small footprint and not QT or gtk
[18:00] <guillaume_> somewhere else
[18:00] <wols_> theRealBall: fluxbox. and CDE is NOT small
[18:00] <theRealBall> wols_: define useless
[18:00] <bazhang> theRealBall, then flux openbox
[18:00] <ikonia> theRealBall: xfce ? fluxbox ?
[18:00] <guillaume_> synaptic was open
[18:00] <theRealBall> i'm looking at fluxbox never even heard of it
[18:00] <sleipnir> hi guys, Is there an application to make a tracker think that we are uploading more that we are really doing. I am not a leecher the problem is that most of the time my download is at 50KB but the upload is at 4KB
[18:01] <theRealBall> xfce is gtk too much malloc
[18:01] <pippo> ciao a tutti
[18:01] <ikonia> theRealBall: cde as a desktop died a long time ago therefore support for currentl libraries/products will be limited
[18:01] <theRealBall> and potential to be gnome-ish
[18:01] <ikonia> theRealBall: there is opencde as I recall, a legacy port
[18:01] <atlef> !it | pippo:
[18:01] <pippo> ok
[18:01] <mikael_> how can i upgrde from hoary hedgegog 5.04 ubuntu to 8.04.1
[18:01] <PingFloyd> theRealBall: except xfce strives for being minimalistic
[18:01] <theRealBall> ikonia: yes i know but it's matured and support libs to other win managers
[18:01] <PingFloyd> theRealBall: gnome doesn't
[18:01] <bazhang> mikael_, fresh install
[18:02] <theRealBall> pingfloyd: oh ok
[18:02] <gast> yahoo.com.mx
[18:02] <wols_> mikael_: reinstall. it's easier
[18:02] <ikonia> theRealBall: try it then
[18:02] <atlef> !upgrade | mikael_:
[18:02] <wols_> mikael_: and faster
[18:02] <PingFloyd> theRealBall: but still xfce is pretty bloated in comparison to use most WMs
[18:02] <theRealBall> despite CDE dead sun hasn't dropped it completely
[18:02] <mikael_> ok thanks
[18:02] <PingFloyd> theRealBall: but got to kind of expect that
[18:02] <rubystallion> Is it possible to use the mouse to change cursor position in gnome-terminal?
[18:02] <theRealBall> i see
[18:02]  * chalcedony smiles
[18:02] <PingFloyd> theRealBall: personally, I like icewm
[18:02] <Yazan`> hey, i was just wondering how to change the screen brightness on ubuntu??
[18:03] <chalcedony> is there a way to get windows fonts on ubuntu?
[18:03] <bazhang> !fonts | chalcedony
[18:03] <wols_> !msttcorefonts
[18:03] <tritium> chalcedony: install the msttcorefonts paackage, to start with
[18:03] <PingFloyd> theRealBall: about just the right balance between functionality and being lightweight for my tastes
[18:03] <atlef> chalcedony: install ubuntu restricted extras
[18:03] <theRealBall> hmm
[18:03] <tritium> ubuntu-restricted-extras depends on msttcorefonts, and will thus pull that package in
[18:04] <td123> When I type top into the console , I get that 1.6G mem is used but in the system monitor it only shows me that 500M are used, why is there a difference?
[18:04] <theRealBall> which lib is icewm based on?
[18:04] <chalcedony> thank you all :)
[18:04] <theRealBall> or er use?
[18:04] <PingFloyd> theRealBall: it will work with gtk and qt
[18:04] <theRealBall> it's standalone?
[18:04] <wols_> td123: "free"
[18:04] <PingFloyd> theRealBall: yeah
[18:04] <theRealBall> oh
[18:04] <PingFloyd> theRealBall: but it will run gtk and qt based apps just fine
[18:04] <keewee> Hi everyone!
[18:05] <theRealBall> ok so icewm and fluxbox
[18:05] <atlef> keewee: hello
[18:05] <keith-> the proposed repo for hardy ... is that for future releases or what?
[18:05] <td123> wols_: no, it says that 1.5G is used
[18:05] <theRealBall> yea exactly what i'm looking at
[18:05] <PmDematagoda> td123: 1.6 is the RAM used by apps along with the cache, system monitor only shows the RAM used by apps
[18:05] <Fryguy--_> what package contains fsck.ntfs
[18:05] <td123> PmDematagoda: oh
[18:05] <wattazoum> hello all
[18:05] <PmDematagoda> td123: do free -m that probably should show it
[18:05] <Xpistos> can hardy run VitualBox/
[18:05] <wattazoum> I am trying to use apport for non Ubuntu package (the project is hosted on Launchpad but not registered on the Ubuntu Distribution) . Is it possible ?
[18:05] <atlef> Xpistos: yes
[18:05] <bazhang> Xpistos, yes
[18:06] <gaelfx_> sorry, had to reboot
[18:06] <td123> PmDematagoda: wow, why is it using so much cache?
[18:06] <Xpistos> aside from the repo, where can I get it
[18:06] <PingFloyd> theRealBall: the default theme for it in most distros is pretty bad looking, but with some tweaking it's ok
[18:06] <PmDematagoda> td123: to make apps start faster I suppose
[18:06] <bloodrock> rubystallion, don't think so
[18:06] <atlef> Xpistos: virtualbox.org
[18:06] <td123> PmDematagoda: k, thx
[18:07] <theRealBall> i see
[18:07] <guillaume_> I did dpkg -l, I'
[18:07] <gaelfx_> so can anyone help me fix this freezing and bad connection problem?
[18:07] <nieosiagalna22> czesc, hello all :)
[18:07] <guillaume_> I've found something http://pastebin.com/m33569ffd vmware
[18:07] <guillaume_> so what would be the name of the pakage?
[18:07] <PmDematagoda> gaelfx_, without much information it is very difficult to help
[18:07] <keewee> I am having a problem when installing Ubuntu on my friend's computer... maybe you can help... It's a Pentium III 1ghz, 256MB, 30GB drive... I boot from CD, then select to install, it seems OK, starts to load (shows logo with the orange bar moving) and after 2 or 3 minutes the hard drive turns off. Same happens when trying to run as LiveCD. Windows installs OK.
[18:08] <chams> hi
[18:08] <PmDematagoda> keewee: Ubuntu may be a bit too much for a PC like that, why not try Xubuntu?
[18:08] <gaelfx_> ok, let's say I'm totally new at this. how do I get you the information you need?
[18:08] <bazhang> keewee, try fluxbuntu
[18:08] <AnimatedBox> I'm having a problem with amarok which I only get in Ubuntu. It does not seem to let me scan my collection, or I'm not getting any feedback. There's no "status bar" for me to check any apparent scanning progress. How do I get one to show?
[18:09] <PmDematagoda> gaelfx_, for example, how do you connect to the net? wired or wireless? also, what make/model is the card?
[18:09] <absurdistan> ikonia i figured out
[18:09] <gaelfx_> wired, BCM43xx
[18:09] <keewee> I thought that Ubuntu would need less resources... Windows seems to work a bit slowly but OK.
