[13:48] <Jack_Sparrow> latit sudo apt-get install pastebinit  && cp /etc/fstab ~/Desktop/Partition_Layout.txt && sudo fdisk -l >> ~/Desktop/Partition_Layout.txt && sudo blkid >> ~/Desktop/Partition_Layout.txt && lsb_release -a >> ~/Desktop/Partition_Layout.txt && cat /boot/grub/menu.lst >> ~/Desktop/Partition_Layout.txt && cat /home/$USER/Desktop/Partition_Layout.txt | pastebinit  (Provide Pastebin link in channel)
[13:48] <momomo> G__81: you need package linux-headers-*
[13:48] <Wolv3> Rabbitbunny, can u tell me the full command?
[13:48] <ortsvorsteher> Wolv3: try "sudo apt-get remove kubuntu-desktop"
[13:48] <Wolv3> ty
[13:49] <G__81> momomo, thats only the headers
[13:49] <G__81> i want the entire source
[13:49] <binarymutant> G__81, linux-source-2.6.26
[13:49] <Jack_Sparrow> !kernel
[13:49] <Goundy> thanks folks
[13:49] <Goundy> see u
[13:49] <binarymutant> G__81, or kernel.org
[13:50] <momomo> G__81: linux-source-*  sorry
[13:50] <Rabbitbunny> Jack_Sparrow: I hope you didn't type that whole thing out.
[13:50] <Jack_Sparrow> Rabbitbunny I keep them on my cheat sheet
[13:50] <Pontiac> Anyone have any experience with dancer-ircd?
[13:50] <Rabbitbunny> ... you're a pro...
[13:50] <ortsvorsteher> !anyone | Pontiac
[13:51] <momomo> !ubotu > Rabbitbunny
[13:51] <Pontiac> heh
[13:51] <Rabbitbunny> momo ?
[13:51] <Pontiac> Ok, can anyone explain to my why after I get dancer-services connected to dancer-ircd, I can get a response from nickserv, memoserv, and operserv, but nothing from Chanserv?
[13:51] <Jack_Sparrow> latit Are you still here
[13:52] <momomo> Rabbitbunny: !uboto calls a text template bot
[13:52] <latit> Jack_Sparrow, YES
[13:52] <momomo> Rabbitbunny: s/uboto/ubottu/
[13:53] <latit> Jack_Sparrow, sry icannot even get a shell so he\ow to do commands
[13:53] <Rabbitbunny> momomo: Yeah, I run a supybot myself. I'm just wondering why you'd introduce me to him.
[13:53] <Jack_Sparrow> latit You dont need to type all of that, just past it into a term
[13:53] <Jack_Sparrow> latit livecd or ctrl-alt-F1
[13:54] <momomo> Rabbitbunny: sorry, i thought you didnt know as you responded to Jack_Sparrow "i hope you didnt type that whiole thing out"
[13:54] <latit> Jack_Sparrow, ok
[13:54] <Pontiac> As per https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Dancer-IRCD?action=show, it says that if I get a reply from nickserv after sending /msg nickserv register, and receiving a reply, I should be good with chanserv, memoserv, etc.  But I'm getting zilch from chanserv.
[13:54] <Rabbitbunny> momomo: Ah, nah, you're good. Jack_Sparrow pasted ;)
[13:54] <Jack_Sparrow> latit Sorry, I assumed someone that triple booted with two nix's would know that
[13:55] <GT3> :o
[13:55] <momomo> Rabbitbunny: ah, you were referring to _:48?
[13:55] <GT3> :|
[13:55] <GT3> :D
[13:55] <GT3> :>
[13:55] <latit> Jack_Sparrow, not triple dual but will take that from you
[13:56] <Rabbitbunny> momomo: Nah, little higher, _:47
[13:56] <Jack_Sparrow> latit Just waking up here, so Im a bit slow
[13:57] <Heliodor> Yo, Jack_Sparrow... are you always here helping out? :)
[13:57] <Jack_Sparrow> Heliodor usually just during the week
[13:58] <Heliodor> Jack_Sparrow: You are really making an effort i must say :)

[13:58] <ikonia> G__81: what are you trying to build
[13:58] <G__81> the linux headers is already installed
[13:58] <G__81> Quagga routing suite

[13:58] <ikonia> G__81: what package
[13:59] <G__81> sorry
[13:59] <fxhp> Don't say sorry to the bots... heh
[13:59] <G__81> ikonia, its quagga a routing software
[13:59] <G__81> fxhp, it was Jack_Sparrow :)
[13:59] <G__81> i mean for Jack_Sparrow
[14:00] <ikonia> G__81: Quagga is in the repos
[14:00] <ikonia> G__81: you don't need to build it
[14:00] <Jack_Sparrow> G__81 Understood, thanks for reading it
[14:00] <ikonia> G__81: the package name is quagga
[14:00] <Jack_Sparrow> !info quagga
[14:00] <LukaszJ> Hello
[14:00] <G__81> i have made schanges to the code and i need to build it
[14:00] <Jack_Sparrow> G__81 sudo apt-get install quagga
[14:00] <ikonia> G__81: then you should know how to do dependency tracking
[14:00] <Jack_Sparrow> :)
[14:00] <momomo> G__81: try libcap-dev
[14:00] <ikonia> G__81: submit the changes upstream
[14:01] <G__81> i am new to Ubuntu this is my first day with Ubuntu ve been a Fedora User for 10 versions
[14:01] <G__81> :)
[14:01] <Rabbitbunny> Then you really have no excuse.
[14:01] <ikonia> G__81: dependeny tracking works the same
[14:01] <Jack_Sparrow> G__81 We will try to be gentle with you
[14:01] <G__81> ikonia, it is
[14:01] <G__81> i am struggling hard with the names as such
[14:01] <Jack_Sparrow> !build-essentials
[14:01] <momomo> G__81: try libcap-dev or libcap2-dev
[14:02] <G__81> Jack_Sparrow, i ve installed build-essentials
[14:02] <frog_> hi, when i wanna add  a module to my kernwl, should i compile the kernel on my own? or is there any trick to do it in any other way?
[14:02] <therootest> hello.
[14:02] <Jack_Sparrow> G__81 Just checking
[14:02] <G__81> yeah sure :)
[14:02] <ikonia> frog_: depends on how the module works and what is needed
[14:02] <momomo> G__81: try libcap-dev or libcap2-dev (you read me?)
[14:02] <ikonia> frog_: what module do you want to add ?
[14:02] <therootest> can someone please tell me what package do i need to install java in kubuntu, so that i can play java games in firefox?
[14:02] <ikonia> !java > therootest
[14:02] <G__81> Jack_Sparrow, I installed 8.10 and very impressed with it
[14:02] <Jack_Sparrow> !java
[14:02] <G__81> momomo, yeah i am installing it
[14:03] <frog_> ikonia ipt_owner
[14:03] <th3_b0b> hi there! how can I query apt for a list of MANUALLY installed packages? I know "dpkg -l" lists them all, but I don't need the depencies, only those i manually did an "apt-get install PACKAGENAME" for. Any ideas?
[14:03] <G__81> yeah thanks
[14:03] <G__81> it works
[14:03] <Jack_Sparrow> !clone > th3_b0b
[14:03] <ikonia> frog_: is that an internal or 3rd party module
[14:03] <fxhp> G_81, you should look into pfsense running on its own box.
[14:03] <ikonia> frog_: I don't recognise the name
[14:03] <G__81> have some questions in fedora all source packages are named package-devel and how is it in Ubuntu
[14:03] <Rabbitbunny> !clone > Rabbitbunny
[14:03] <thewonderbear> #server irc.irchighway.net
[14:03] <Jack_Sparrow> !bot > Rabbitbunny
[14:03] <momomo> G__81: basically the same ;-)
[14:04] <frog_> ikonia: should be internal... it's for iptables to be able to track the pid, that has generated the packet
[14:04] <th3_b0b> ubottu: ah, thx :)
[14:04] <momomo> G__81: dev instead of devel
[14:04] <G__81> momomo, i searched for kernel-devel but couldnt find it
[14:04] <ikonia> frog_: what version of the kernel is it in
[14:04] <Rabbitbunny> Jack_Sparrow: ... I know what the bot is... I just figured that would be interesting info to have.
[14:05] <Jack_Sparrow> Rabbitbunny I was just trying to show you how to /msg ubottu yourquerry
[14:05] <frog_> i wanted 2.6.27
[14:05] <binarymutant> G__81, are you still trying to find the kernel source? linux-source-2.6.29
[14:05] <ikonia> frog_: is that module in .27 ?
[14:05] <momomo> G__81: i usually use apt-cache search kernel | grep narrow further
[14:05] <ikonia> frog_: the reason I ask is the module may already exist but have channed names in different versions, iptables modules have changed in the past
[14:05] <G__81> binarymutant, no installed it
[14:06] <binarymutant> G__81, why not get the source from kernel.org
[14:06] <G__81> i then had this question coz i thought it was devel but then the word source surprised me
[14:06] <momomo> binarymutant: because ubuntu uses a patched kernel?
[14:06] <G__81> i was just curious to see how to install it from apt
[14:07] <binarymutant> momomo, well linux-source-2.6.29 is the source
[14:07] <Jack_Sparrow> G__81 I think if you have the src enabled in the sources.list it will pull in the source for all packages you install
[14:07] <G__81> oh
[14:07] <G__81> thats nice
[14:07] <Jack_Sparrow> G__81 If you dont want source, rem out the repos
[14:08] <G__81> is ubuntu targeted only towards end users and not developers?
[14:08] <momomo> mainly, but not only
[14:08] <Jack_Sparrow> G__81 We dont discriminate..
[14:09] <miha> G__81: developers are the nasty users of everything not their own
[14:09] <miha> G__81: they complain:)
[14:09] <Jack_Sparrow> G__81 with our base server and base desktop installs a dev can shape them into whatever they need
[14:09] <G__81> is ubuntu used by kernel developers ?
[14:09] <Jack_Sparrow> G__81 It isnt like they ever leave anything the way they get it
[14:10] <G__81> i guess Dave Miller uses it the person who ported Ubuntu to Sparc
[14:10] <unanxbt> How can i install fonts?
[14:10] <therootest> i have java installed but firefox doesnt play java games.
[14:10] <therootest> can please anyone help me?
[14:11] <Jack_Sparrow> G__81 we have the #Uubntu-offtopic and -chat channels for discussions.  THis place will get busy soon and we then clamp down on the borderline conversations..
[14:11] <momomo> G__81: i would think that kernel developers dont care much about which distro they use since they work under the hood anyway
[14:11] <unanxbt> therootest, sudo apt-get install ubuntu-restricted-extras
[14:11] <ActionParsnip> hey all
[14:11] <Jack_Sparrow> therootest Did you do the click to install inside firefox or did you use our tutorial
[14:11] <therootest> Jack_Sparrow: not inside firefox.
[14:11] <G__81> Ubuntu is so light thats really impressed me when compared to Fedora
[14:12] <ActionParsnip> if i have a running app and I ssh over with X forwarding, Can I make the app appear on the forwarded x server without having to kill then rerun the app?
[14:12] <fxhp> G_81, yeah it seems pretty clean too
[14:12] <ActionParsnip> G__81: install fluxbox or xfce, its even lighter
[14:12] <Jack_Sparrow> G__81 xubuntu is even lighter
[14:12] <binarymutant> G__81, dwm is the lightest :P
[14:12] <therootest> thanks!
[14:13] <ActionParsnip> binarymutant: no x server is lighter still
[14:13] <G__81> and one question its not with respect to Ubuntu as such. Why is that rpms are quite heavy i mean in terms of file size
[14:13] <phorensic> binarymutant: dwm? ligher than a minimal lfs install? DSL?
[14:13] <fxhp> I dislike xfce, and my benchmarks are about the same with gnome
[14:13] <G__81> and deb files very light in terms of file size
[14:13] <binarymutant> phorensic, only 2000 lines of code at like 2k
[14:13] <unanxbt> How can I install fonts?
[14:13] <ActionParsnip> G__81: extract the files from both and examine is all i can suggest
[14:13] <Jack_Sparrow> G__81 I never pulled apart an rpm so I cant see why they would be bigger for the same pavkage
[14:13] <ActionParsnip> !fonts | unanxbt
[14:14] <Guest65378> « Un saluto a tutto il canale! »
[14:14] <Aison> hello
[14:14] <Rabbitbunny> !es
[14:14] <phorensic> binarymutant: what does it stand for?
[14:14] <unanxbt> ActionParsnip, thanks, lemme check it
[14:14] <Jack_Sparrow> !it
[14:14] <quibbler> unanxbt: drag them to /home/USER/,fonts
[14:14] <Aison> is there some package source for Icedtea Java unstable?
[14:14] <binarymutant> phorensic, dynamic tiling manager
[14:14] <quibbler> unanxbt: .font*
[14:14] <Aison> openjdk unstable
[14:14] <ActionParsnip> Aison: i use it to get java
[14:14] <Jack_Sparrow> !find icedtea
[14:15] <Aison> my problem is, that icedtea6 plugin is not working at all
[14:15] <therootest> i installed sudo apt-get install ubuntu-restricted-extras but my firefox doesnt still play java games. should i reboot?
[14:15] <Jack_Sparrow> !bug
[14:15] <binarymutant> phorensic, LFS doesn't install X does it? it's been so long since i've seen that site
[14:15] <unanxbt> quibbler, ~/,fonts does not exist, if I create that dir and copy fonts in there, then, how can i configure them?
[14:15] <quibbler> unanxbt: i'm a lousy typist .fonts
[14:16] <frog_> ikonia: ok, to be honest, i only read about it... but the article is according to 2.4.x. i have assumed it is also in 2.6. i gonna check it ...
[14:16] <Jack_Sparrow> unanxbt you are aware that ~/  means /home/$USER right
[14:16] <quibbler> unanxbt: it is a hidden directory
[14:16] <unanxbt> Jack_Sparrow, yes
[14:16] <unanxbt> quibbler, i know
[14:16] <b52ub_> any svn user ?
[14:16] <Jack_Sparrow> unanxbt and that you show a comma that should be a period for hidden
[14:16] <|AR|> b52ub_: ya
[14:17] <ActionParsnip> therootest: no need to reboot: try: sudo apt-get install icedtea6-plugin
[14:17] <unanxbt> Jack_Sparrow, sorry, i mean a dot
[14:17] <Jack_Sparrow> np
[14:17] <therootest> couldnt find packet icedtea6 :)
[14:18] <therootest> i am on kubuntu 8.0.4, by the way.
[14:18] <Photoguy> I'm having trouble with Limewire, it doesn't start up, it just gets stuck on the splash screen.
[14:18] <unanxbt> therootest, why dont you try my solution?
[14:18] <b52ub_> |AR|, i trouble when configuring the dav with apache , i have configure dave_svn.conf but i don't have the tool /etc/apche_dav.svn.passwd
[14:18] <Aison> ActionParsnip, well, here icedtea6 is not working. The java is now recogniced by the browser, but when the plugin should load, it just hangs
[14:18] <therootest> unanxbt: what is your solution?
[14:19] <ActionParsnip> Aison: are you restarting your browser each time?
[14:19] <b52ub_> |AR|, i mean /etc/apache2/dav_svn.passwd :d
[14:19] <tuxina> ICH BIN KEIN NEWSER
[14:19] <unanxbt> therootest, in terminal, type this: sudo apt-get install ubuntu-restricted-extras
[14:19] <snikeris> Hi all.  I'
[14:19] <phorensic> binarymutant: umm actually it does
[14:19] <Aison> ActionParsnip, I even rebootet my machine once ^
[14:19] <therootest> unanxbt: i did it :) still doesnt work.
[14:19] <unanxbt> therootest, it will install flash, java everything
[14:19] <Jack_Sparrow> !de > tuxina
[14:19] <ActionParsnip> Aison: no, i mean you have to close the web browser in entirety to reload the plugins
[14:19] <unanxbt> therootest, in firefox, type this; about:plugins
[14:19] <therootest> unanxbt: is this different for kubuntu 8.0.4?
[14:20] <unanxbt> therootest, and check whether it tells about java
[14:20] <ikonia> frog_: I wouldn't make that assumtpion
[14:20] <Aison> ActionParsnip, the browser allways hangs, when the java applet is loaded, so I have to close it (sometimes even to kill it)
[14:20] <unanxbt> therootest, no, for 8.04 the commands will be same
[14:20] <ikonia> frog_: lots changed between 2.4 and 2.6
[14:20] <|AR|> b52ub_: did you try htpasswd2 -c /etc/apache2/dav_svn.passwd ?
[14:20] <ActionParsnip> Aison: hmm, sounds like a conflict of plugins
[14:20] <therootest> unanxbt: i went to firefox and there seems to be many flash plugins
[14:21] <therootest>      libjavaplugin_oji.so
[14:21] <therootest>     Java(TM) Plug-in 1.6.0_07
[14:21] <frog_> ikonia: yeah, ok
[14:21] <Jack_Sparrow> therootest one of your other plugins could also be your problem
[14:21] <therootest> Jack_Sparrow: how can i know?
[14:21] <unanxbt> therootest, check under section "ava(TM) Plug-in"
[14:22] <Jack_Sparrow> therootest turn them off.  Not all plugins play nice
[14:22] <b52ub_> |AR|, oups it pass thanks :D
[14:22] <unanxbt> therootest, oh sorry, its "java(TM) Plug-in"
[14:22] <therootest> ehm... the compiz fusion thing collapses all the time and the java is not working....
[14:22] <|AR|> b52ub_: :)
[14:22] <therootest> ...maybe its time to have a fresh new install of kubuntu.
[14:22] <unanxbt> therootest, then you can disable the extras graphics
[14:22] <linux_guy> is it possible (in ubuntu) to connect to a windows vista system via remote desktop?
[14:22] <Jack_Sparrow> linux_guy YEs
[14:22] <office> linux_guy: yes
[14:23] <linux_guy> Jack_Sparrow, is it easy
[14:23] <linux_guy> ?
[14:23] <linux_guy> relatively*
[14:23] <therootest> unanxbt: Java(TM) Plug-in 1.6.0_07-b06

[14:24] <therootest> one last question: why k3b doesnt recognise my empty dvd?
[14:24] <unanxbt> therootest, does the browser show any error?
[14:24] <ActionParsnip> therootest: i'd just uninstall the plugins you have installed
[14:24] <Jack_Sparrow> linux_guy http://www.ubuntugeek.com/how-to-use-remote-desktop-in-ubuntu-810-intrepid-ibex.html               for a start
[14:24] <rainmanp7> Is there a program I could run to help developers on the system configuration or burn in test for new ubuntu releases or current version etc. ?
[14:24] <therootest> unanxbt: no errors :) just that i should install java.

[14:25] <linux_guy> Jack_Sparrow, thanks
[14:25] <Jack_Sparrow> np
[14:25] <e-frame> therootest: bcoz your dvd didn't introduce itself to k3b :D
[14:25] <unanxbt> therootest, try reinstalling java

My biggest hope is to make a voice file for espeak, but i think it's so hard. So an appropriate program for a boy to almost play with would be equally appreciated...

Fortunately, this machine has two hard drives set up in a RAID1 array, so I was able to boot into Ubuntu anyway.  When I booted, the BIOS was able to detect the hard drive; however, it produced the error: "Secondary master hard disk error".

Now I want a list of them, so I can easily decide for each package whether I would like to keep it or remove it.
[14:37] <Wunderbar> can someone explain to me what (if any) advantage kde has over gnome??
[14:37] <farman> no i need urdu for linux

[14:55] <b52ub_> |AR|, yeap , true https
[14:55] <icmp_request> *service/file
[14:56] <Xunie> icmp_request, I geuss runlevel 4-6 or something... not lower.
[14:56] <momomo> sharperguy: why do you want to download all the repo information again if nothing has changed (apt-get update said: ~"no changes.")
[14:56] <|AR|> b52ub_: hum...i mean is your svn repos on the same machine with you use to access the repos?
[14:56] <Xunie> icmp_request, For what service?.. dhcpd or dhclient?
[14:56] <sharperguy> momomo, I'm getting an error where its still using the old sources for some reason
[14:56] <icmp_request> Xunie but which script is? I've tried restart networking but didn't restart DHCP
[14:57] <b52ub_> |AR|, yeap , euh nop  i'm trying to access from a different machien on the network
[14:57] <sharperguy> momomo, So it's saying file not found because the new sources wouldve told it the correct file to use
[14:57] <Xunie> icmp_request, Cause, At best you can do 'cd /etc/ ; ls ./rc* | grep -i dhcp'
[14:57] <abhinay> hello
[14:57] <icmp_request> thanks Xunie I'll try :)
[14:57] <linux_guy> ##windows is dead lol
[14:57] <momomo> sharperguy: please pastebin your /etc/apt/sources.list for all of us to have a look at
[14:57] <linux_guy> #ubuntu is ALWAYS jumping
[14:57] <ortsvorsteher> !ot | linux_guy
[14:57] <Xunie> icmp_request, you can change 'dhcp' with 'dhc'
[14:58] <Xunie> !ot | Xunie
[14:58] <linux_guy> why is everyone on my case today?
[14:58] <icmp_request> Xunie I wish to restart the client only so it's dhclient?
[14:58] <abhinay> I'm using Macbook3.1 on Ubuntu Intrepid, anybody has got a problem with brightness control keys. I'm not able to adjust the brightness with F1/F2. any help would be appreciated.
[14:58] <Xunie> wait, What?
[14:59] <Xunie> icmp_request, dhcpd and dhclient are two different things, The one is a server, The other one a client.
[14:59] <sky_> hi
[14:59] <Xunie> sky_, hi
[14:59] <sky_> vim is console app ?
[14:59] <icmp_request> Xunie I wish the client only :)

[14:59] <luffy> yo
[14:59] <sky_> only console ? :)
[14:59] <abhinay> sky_, gvim is GUI
[14:59] <nyaa> sky_ vim is a text editor you can use inside the terminal.
[14:59] <sky_> i am starting learn Python -_-
[14:59] <icmp_request> thanks Xunie I think I know whatu you mean then it's dhclient
[15:00] <|AR|> b52ub_: you are trying to access the remote repos using webdav trhough https? and are you sure the eclipse plugin support webdav?
[15:00] <Xunie> icmp_request, 'ps -elf | grep -i [service]', Replace [service] with dhc.
[15:00] <abhinay> sky_, I would prefer geany , the liteweight / powerful editor
[15:00] <icmp_request> thanks I'll try :)
[15:00] <Xunie> icmp_request, That is to get a process number, And with that process number you can 'kill [process number]' for instance 'kill 12345' or 'kill 2342'

[15:09] <bardyr> momomo, yes, thanks :)

[15:12] <Mpole> hi all. i have the following questions
[15:12] <norpan_> ko i dont want text, i want splash and if i want text sometime i press esc
[15:13] <norpan_> koert,  you know how to fix this?
[15:13] <Mpole> question no. 1) i recently upgraded to 8.10. i found out today that i cant open the GNOME network dialogue to make modifications (unlock) my network settings, from dynamic to static, and vice versa. i had to make the settings via the terminal, editing the interfaces and resolv.conf files. what happened?
[15:13] <momomo> sharperguy: hmm, cat /etc/pbuilderrc | pastebinit (sudo aptitude install pastebinit)
[15:13] <rakudave> mroc: ah... there are known problems with on-board raid controlles, as they require a special driver which is normaly only available for window$
[15:14] <sharperguy> momomo, cat /etc/pbuilderrc | pastebinit
[15:14] <mroc> rakudave: ok.  so is this something that can be done, or am i looking at an impossible or extremely complicated task?
[15:14] <sharperguy> momomo, http://pastebin.com/fdef8644 - copy/paste fail
[15:14] <sharperguy> momomo, lol that makes it obvous
[15:15] <Mpole> can anyone help?
[15:15] <momomo> sharperguy: yeah, you got it ;-)
[15:15] <norpan_> is there anyone that know a solution for this problem?
[15:15] <rakudave> mroc: i can't think of a way of doing it... you might have to install another hd
[15:15] <mroc> rakudave: that would be challenging....it's a laptop.
[15:15] <ljuwaidah> hi
[15:15] <linuxman410> norpan check out this link http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=77694 it will show you how to change splash screen
[15:16] <momomo> sharperguy: i mean you caught the error, not that you were "slow thinking"
[15:16] <ljuwaidah> where can I find a feature list of 9.04?
[15:16] <rakudave> mroc: ah shoot... well, you might use wubi to create a virtual drive within windows... that _might_ work
[15:16] <norpan_> thnx
[15:16] <sharperguy> momomo, of course changing it to archive.ubuntu.com has still had no effect
[15:17] <momomo> sharperguy: hmm, pbuilder --clean again and then check that $BUILDPLACE and $APTCACHE are empty
[15:18] <momomo> dirs
[15:18] <farman> dear brother momo i got the fonts but now what should i do
[15:18] <mroc> rakudave: i thought about that, but it wasn't ideal of course.  thanks for the help.  i think i'll keep digging a bit more, see if i can find anything.  there seem to be reports of people installing ubuntu on this laptop, so maybe someone buried those details in an obscure post.

[15:19] <farman> i open the www.bbcurdu.com website but i am unable to read the urdu
[15:20] <sharperguy> momomo, yeah I tried that
[15:20] <nas> I got wrong filesystem type
[15:20] <nas> did they change it or something?
[15:20] <farman> i already check these fonts in the administration
[15:20] <nas> cuase it worked on a feisty cd
[15:20] <mroc> Mpole: uh...no.  can't say that i do.
[15:20] <LukaszJ> Just wonder guys why my Xorg is loading "ati" and "radeon" drivers, both together?
[15:20] <momomo> sharperguy: another thing i found pbuilder --apt-cache "" if you want caching to be turned off
[15:21] <momomo> farman: maybe relogin to desktop?
[15:21] <sharperguy> momomo, what if I just copy the missing files manually into pbuilder's apt cache
[15:22] <momomo> sharperguy: just a feeling, bypassing the cache makes more sense than manipulating a borked one
[15:22] <sharperguy> momomo, It's not recognising that command
[15:22] <farman> sorry i don't understand to relogin to desktop
[15:22] <farman> means shut down the linux and then restart
[15:23] <momomo> sharperguy: man pbuild
[15:23] <farman> sorry momomo i am bothering you but i am the new user to linux
[15:23] <momomo> farman: dont worry, i help you

[15:26] <Goethhe> Why does VSFTPD adds a user called ftp to my system?
[15:27] <sharperguy> momomo, I think "pbuilder --update" might be helping - even if its still looking at datahpo for some reason - but it is getting new sources
[15:27] <Led_Zeppelin> How do I change my default runlevel? I don't want my system to boot up into GDM. I want a simple cli where I can just do a 'startx'
[15:27] <shally87> hi..
[15:27] <gbrethen> http://paste.ubuntu.com/112460/
[15:27] <unop> Goethhe, because the ftpd needs to run as a user .. and you don't want that user to be an already existing user - you could compromise files that way
[15:27] <momomo> Goethhe: if an attacker gets unwanted control over the ftp-server he will be limited by ftp permissions, which are very narrow
[15:27] <shally87> i would like to ask does  ubuntu 8.10 o=effect y ethernet?
[15:28] <shally87> i would like to ask does  ubuntu 8.10 effect my ethernet?
[15:29] <danteianthe> does anyone use Wubi?
[15:29] <armornick> hey guys, do you need an internet connection during the ubuntu minimal install?
[15:29] <kolby> Led_Zeppelin: look for the file that runs when it starts up.  Edit that one.
[15:29] <shally87> because as i installed the 8.10 yesterday, and uninstalled it. I found out that when i put ubuntu 8/04 the ethernet is not blinking
[15:29] <Mpole> am back
[15:29] <latit> hey all, i have/had a dual boot to 2 linux distros, ubuntu is one - i updated the other and hosed both grub - i rebuilt the grub but it boots to black screen after ubuntu screen any guidance appreciated  please see http://paste.ubuntu.com/112461 and http://paste.ubuntu.com/112463 for menu.lst
[15:29] <Goethhe> unop & momomo: If I disabled anonymous login in VSFTPD , can i remove the ftp user from my system?
[15:29] <unop> armornick, depends if you wish to install any other packages in the process
[15:29] <Mpole> can anyone tell me why, since the upgrade from 8.04 t0 8.10, my network settings control panel wont come up?
[15:30] <sharperguy> momomo, It also seems to want to do everything in terms of jaunty for some reason - which could be a problem
[15:30] <Led_Zeppelin> kolby, which file?
[15:30] <unop> Goethhe, no, vsftpd won't be able to run then ... as i said, vsftpd needs to run as a particular user
[15:30] <armornick> for a commandline install, does ubuntu needs to download files during the install?
[15:31] <gmathews> Hi I am trying to delete my old linux image after an update bu it is not there in adept after looking for 'linux-image'
[15:31] <unop> armornick, no .. but it depends on what you want the system to do .. a barebones install isn't very useful
[15:31] <momomo> sharperguy: man-page mentions --distribution. just check it out ;-)
[15:31] <sharperguy> a
[15:31] <sharperguy> momomo, yeah I was thinking that
[15:31] <danteianthe> i installed ubuntu through windows using Wubi, and when i boot up my computer it gives me the list of OS's but when i hit Ubuntu i get "error 1: Filename must be either an absolute pathname or blocklist" and i can't get farther than that. windows works fine though...
[15:31] <rakudave> armornick: no, but it is advisable, as it will download the lates language packs and updates
[15:32] <armornick> I have pppoe and so I need to set that up before I can use apt-get
[15:32] <armornick> and I want the minimal install because I need *control*
[15:32] <rakudave> armornick: it will work without a connection, you can update later
[15:33] <armornick> alright, thanks

[15:33] <garyd> I am running Ubuntu 8.10 client with SAMBA loaded and working.   I am a newbie, please go easy on me.
[15:33] <garyd> I plug in an external USB drive formatted for NTFS.  It shows up on the console fine, and I can read and write to the drive.  I have set the permissions to 777 on /media/drivename.
[15:33] <garyd> However, none of the options to Share it via SAMBA are available with a right click.
[15:33] <garyd> I am assuming this might be because it is not a permanently mounted drive, but I am not sure.  Can someone help.
[15:33] <garyd> 1) How do I tell the system the drive will be permanently mounted (if necessary)?
[15:33] <FloodBot1> garyd: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[15:33] <armornick> btw, is that laptop hard drive bug still active?
[15:33] <kolby> Led_Zeppelin:  It might be different between Distros.  I forgot it's name
[15:33] <garyd> sorry for the flood
[15:34] <sharperguy> momomo, tried "pbuilder --update --distribution intrepid" and it still does jaunty
[15:34] <s0101> i have a a problem with remote desktop, i just configured firestarter port 5900 is open on the remote computer but i get timeout when i try to connect
[15:34] <sharperguy> !return | garyd
[15:34] <MatBoy> are there known issues with kernel -23 ?
[15:35] <kolby> Led_Zeppelin: I'm not finding it.

[15:35] <betterhands> hey guys--used to install turbo tax on my xp to take care of taxes...any recommended packages for ubuntu, or would i be better off with some online software?  i won't have a real complicated return...is TaxACT online my best bet?
[15:35] <Led_Zeppelin> kolby, lol. Its not that easy. Not sure why Ubuntu did this. Its kind of annoying.
[15:35] <momomo> sharperguy: ok, later for me too
[15:36] <danteianthe> how do i access / edit the menu.lst file?
[15:36] <kolby> Led_Zeppelin: what did it do?  It gives you the CLI instead of GDM->gnome ?
[15:36] <rakudave> danteianthe: sudo gedit /boot/grub/menu.lst
[15:36] <Led_Zeppelin> kolby, I just don't like GUIs, thats all.
[15:36] <armornick> betterhands, online software would be ideal, because you can access it from any computer
[15:36] <Led_Zeppelin> perhaps I should go back to Debian ;-)
[15:36] <lanoxx-> danteianthe, sudo vim /boot/grub/menu.lst
[15:36] <Wunderbar> is the person who recommended fluxbox still here?
[15:37] <Led_Zeppelin> but the problem with that is, I don't know how to setup wirless access via CLI. I need a GUI
[15:37] <betterhands> thanks for the advice armornick
[15:37] <kolby> Led_Zeppelin: I see.  Well, I prefer to get the X-server running so I can use a bigger terminal
[15:37] <rakudave> danteianthe: and whenever fiddling with a critical file, make a backup! (sudo cp /boot/grub/menu.lst /boot/grub/menu.lst.bak)
[15:37] <s0101> I have a router between the 2 computers and they have the same ip adress
[15:37] <armornick> Led_Zeppelin, if you used Debian, you can use Ubuntu, no? ;)

[15:38] <s0101> when itry to connect can i use the same ip for connection?
[15:38] <G__81> lets say i want to run some code which does not have any GUI
[15:38] <danteianthe> rakudave: the problem is i need to edit it before i can get ubuntu to boot...I'm dual booting windows and ubuntu, and i keep getting Error 1: Filename must be either an absolute pathname or blocklist.
[15:38] <Led_Zeppelin> armornick, I use Debian on servers. Never Linux on desktops. Someting new for me. Wireless is a PITA!

[15:39] <armornick> Led_Zeppelin, first google result tells you how to configure wireless via cli

[15:54] <nikonadict> hey I have a question about ubuntu server.. I am running the latest version and everything, and I was wondering if I could have two seperate opearting systems operating at the same time in the same computer... For instance, I have a regular server set up - http, samba, that stuff.. but I wanted to have a seperate instilation of Ubuntu desktop edition that I could connect to thruogh VNC for regular use.. I wanted them both running at the same time... doe
[15:54] <nikonadict>  about how I should approach this..
[15:54] <mrwes> garyd: who owns that directory? root or you?
[15:54] <oneunder> i have a question about pptp connection/program.   when i open Network Connections, the VPN tab is there, but all the buttons are greyed out.  am i missing the VPN package?

[15:55] <s0101> anybody are confident with remote desktop setup?
[15:55] <s0101> who are
[15:55] <mrwes> garyd: and you're trying to share it as a user?
[15:55] <Dr_willis_> nikonadict,  why do you need 2? you can have several dozen+ vnc sessions started
[15:55] <garyd> my user is an admin
[15:55] <Soooooa> what is inetd? the package does not seem to exist. The proftpd install advised me that was the best option. Though it is not on my system and apt cant find it
[15:55] <Dr_willis_> !find xinetd
[15:55] <psicobra> hi guys i have a usb wifi adapter how do i tell what it is what do i type is it somthing like lspci but a usb version?
[15:56] <s0101> I am trying to connect to a comp on my router and get this Avahi resolver failure: Timeout reached
[15:56] <Dr_willis_> Soooooa,   its a service thing to launch servioces as needed. xinetd has replaced it for the most part

[15:56] <psicobra> comand not found
[15:56] <Soooooa> Yeah the proftpd install said inetd was better than xinetd unless you are going to run a busy FTP server. So I chose inetd
[15:57] <ari_stre1s> psicobra: really? i have it in 8.10

[16:00] <Lucifer_Cat> no, i was thinking maybe you didnt have port forwarding setup, but on the same router, it shouldnt matter
[16:00] <s0101> i have also open the router for remote connection but it requires port 8080 i cant change to 5900
[16:00] <unanxbt> At gnome-look.org, there is a section named "Maemo", what is this?
[16:00] <nikonadict> Dr_willis_ : yes but my server is only configured through CLI
[16:00] <s0101> in the router
[16:00] <hexbase> hi, i installed xen and when im asked to login, the screen refreshes 3 times and then the screen gets no signal(black screen)

[16:01] <Dr_willis_> nikonadict,  you can still in stall vnc4server and have a vnc session/remote desktp if you wanted
[16:01] <s0101> maybe if i change the computers back to port 8080 and setup firestarter for them?
[16:02] <nikonadict> Dr_willis_ : how would I go about doing that
[16:02] <Dr_willis_> nikonadict,  install vnc4server.. run it...connect.. :)
[16:02] <s0101> this is first time i try to use remote
[16:02] <Dr_willis_> nikonadict,  install vnc4server.. >read its docs<  run it...connect.. :)
[16:03] <Lucifer_Cat> s0101: both are linux machines?
[16:03] <quentin> How do I install Nexuiz, It's a zip file. and it's on my desktop
[16:03] <nikonadict> alright cool lemme try that n hit you up thnx bud Dr_willis_
[16:03] <s0101> yes both are ubuntu 8.10

[16:05] <Dr_willis_> you can add the proper sessions
[16:05] <s0101> ?
[16:05] <dancebaby> ....
[16:05] <Dr_willis_> sections:)
[16:05] <s0101> can you explain that?
[16:06] <unanxbt> At gnome-look.org, there is a section named "Maemo", what is this?
[16:06] <s0101> if i setup the remote
[16:07] <s0101> computer to port 8080 because dl604 are open for that port?
[16:07] <BlackZ> s
[16:07] <Lucifer_Cat> i am not sure if you can/should do that.
[16:07] <Mpole> Dr_willis_: hi. i need your assistance please. i have problems opening the network settings control panel - recently upgraded to 8.10
[16:07] <Dr_willis_> unanxbt,  try google and look for Maemo? i would giess its a Gnome app
[16:08] <Lucifer_Cat> s0101: im sorry, im out of idead :/
[16:08] <gbrethen> why do I not get a menu when I right click on my desktop?
[16:08] <unanxbt> Dr_willis_, Google says that its a nokia os, then why what "maemo" is doing at gnome-look!
[16:08] <Lucifer_Cat> ideas
[16:08] <Dr_willis_> unanxbt,  it could be its a device that runs  gnome/linux
[16:08] <s0101> can i use port 8080 for remote?
[16:09] <LukaszJ> Is that normal my Xorg loads with "ati" and "radeon" drivers, both together? I can see that in My Xorg.= log
[16:09] <Dr_willis_> unanxbt,  i recall seeing those a few years ago.  befor netbooks....]
[16:09] <unanxbt> Dr_willis_, so we can not try it at our ubuntu!
[16:09] <garyd> Need assistance please with SMB on external drive.  http://paste.ubuntu.com/112469/plain/
[16:09] <Dr_willis_> unanxbt,  its themes for that device specific gnome I imagine]
[16:09] <hareldvd> Any mechanism to set defaults to menu->file->print->print to file?
[16:10] <unanxbt> Dr_willis_, ok, thanks a lot :)
[16:10] <satans> anyone here use fluxbox?
[16:10] <storbeck> satans: Yes
[16:10] <satans> what's your favorite desktop environment?
[16:10] <satans> and why
[16:10] <multipass> xfce for speed.
[16:11] <storbeck> xfce and fluxbox, for speed and looks
[16:11] <Lucifer_Cat> multipass: is fluxbox speedier than xfce?
[16:11] <Dr_willis_> fluxbox = windows manager... xfce = desktop env.
[16:11] <Dr_willis_> :)
[16:11] <Lucifer_Cat> satans: im using fluxbox. but i've been using it only for a day.
[16:12] <storbeck> I would assume fluxbox is faster, xfce is a nice balance between fluxbox and gnome
[16:12] <Lucifer_Cat> Dr_willis_: ahh. im still a noob :P
[16:12] <dancebaby> anyone here use smplayer?
[16:12] <LukaszJ> dancebaby: Yes, I do.
[16:12] <Dillizar> it was sudo apt-get and the name of the package ?
[16:12] <satans> how are you finding the fluxbox environment?
[16:12] <storbeck> satans: What do you mean?
[16:13] <satans> what have u found the advantages to be
[16:13] <storbeck> It's fast.
[16:13] <s0101> why do i get  a time out  when i try to connect?
[16:13] <dancebaby> why it stop when play for several time?
[16:14] <hareldvd> satans: Also have experience with both fluxbox and xfce. xfce is reacher and easyer to configure and maintain.
[16:14] <j-b-r> Ok. So I've been trying to get an old nvidia card working in 8.10 for about a week now, and I only just found out that 8.10 dropped support for all the 71 and 96 cards!
[16:14] <j-b-r> Is that really true?
[16:14] <LukaszJ> satans: I had a chance to play a bit around, it's fast, lightweight. Other thing is how much do you want it to be user-friendy, as not everybody is used to set settings adding new entries to scripts.
[16:14] <j-b-r> Do I have to reinstall 8.04?
[16:14] <miha> xfce looks kinda good. rest of 'performance' UI managers luck horrible
[16:14] <LukaszJ> dancebaby: Mean it hangs?
[16:14] <miha> look
[16:14] <miha> not luck :)
[16:14] <dancebaby> ye
[16:14] <satans> thats what i found, its especially user friendly
[16:14] <satans> at least from first impressions
[16:15] <j-b-r> I love xfce
[16:15] <satans> needs some time to configure it
[16:15] <storbeck> satans: Fluxbox is user friendly?
[16:15] <storbeck> lol
[16:15] <sidewalk> what kinds of internet tvs can i watch with Ubuntu?
[16:15] <miha> i love gnome, but i found out i could live with xfce.
[16:15] <LukaszJ> satans: So, seems to fulfill your need, right :) ?
[16:15] <j-b-r> It works perfectly fast on a pentium 2!
[16:15] <storbeck> Fluxbox is probably one of the least user friendly wm's :P
[16:15] <satans> its not especially username friendly is what i meant to say

[16:24] <Lucifer_Cat> can i switch windows managers without logging out and back in?

[16:24] <storbeck> Lucifer_Cat: no
[16:24] <xpot> nickrud: http://paste.ubuntu.com/112484/
[16:24] <nickrud> Lucifer_Cat, window managers yes, if they respect the --replace switch
[16:24] <Lucifer_Cat> hmmm. everytime i logout of my remote desktop thingy, it just hangs there with a blank wallpaper.
[16:25] <nickrud> xpot, where's your copy of the vmware deb you downloaded?

[16:25] <nickrud> xpot, try   sudo dpkg -i ~/Desktop/vmware<tab>  <-- hit tab key to fill out file name

[16:27] <nickrud> xpot, ok do this instead:   sudo cp ~/Desktop/vmware<tab> /var/apt/cache/archives
[16:27] <jtaji> sky_1911: you are not identified according to whois, try for help in #freenode
[16:27] <storbeck> Lucifer_Cat: You can change which WM you want to use in xinitrc
[16:27] <nickrud> xpot, we'll put the deb where apt-get can find it, then see what surgery needs dooing
[16:28] <nickrud> Lucifer_Cat, for example  compiz --replace   metacity --replace
[16:29] <xpot> nickrud: I already did that earlier.. but not sure what to do after that
[16:29] <nickrud> xpot, that move from the desktop needs to be the evil deb
[16:29] <xpot> nickrud: although mine is /var/cache/apt/archives
[16:29] <nickrud> did I typo? yep
[16:29] <Lucifer_Cat> nickrud: it tells me another window manager is already runing...
[16:29] <storbeck> You can also change your display manager by changing it in /etc/X11/default-display-manager

[16:32] <sandra_> hardy doesnt recognize my printer hp adn i dont know how to configure it
[16:32] <xpot> nickrud: roger
[16:32] <satans> should xchat gnome be more resource hungry than xchat??
[16:32] <storbeck> Serafeim: Google is pretty good
[16:32] <nickrud> xpot, your vmware deb isn't referred to in a repo; that's why apt can't find it. Depending on what error we get here (that is, if it's definitive) we may have to make a scratch repo
[16:32] <sandra_> the same is automatically recognized and installed in intrepid

[16:34] <Dr_willis_> Stefano,  anything that makes xvid - can also be plaued on divx sttuff (or should be able to)

[16:37] <satans> #ubuntu
[16:37] <ineedubuntuhelp> how does one go about loading a driver? my driver is installed (using windows wireless drivers), but i take it that the unclaimed card is because is the driver is not loaded. anybody have any idea?
[16:37] <Dr_willis_> anyone know everyting about anything? :)
[16:37] <satans> xchat vs xchat gnome
[16:37] <xpot> nickrud: I prayed, but god must hate me! --> http://paste.ubuntu.com/112486/
[16:37] <storbeck> ineedubuntuhelp: modprobe
[16:37] <Chris_Were> i've tried re-installing the drivers. lots of times
[16:37] <Serafeim> is there a program to search for data better than the gnome's default??
[16:37] <satans> should xchat gnome be so resource intensive???
[16:37] <Mighty> tobago: see pm
[16:37] <ineedubuntuhelp> i had typed in "sudo modprobe ndiswrapper" and nothing came up
[16:37] <hermes_> Hi! I need some help with my display setup on my box. After upgrading the ati-drivers on my laptop, the desktop will not load correctly
[16:37] <sandra_> Hardy does not recognize my printer and when i try to configure it, it just doesnt work
[16:37] <marko-_--> satans, i like xchat more
[16:37] <_VIM_> satans: xchat, is better
[16:38]  * miha reminds himself bugs page is so useful https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/287336 i couldnt figure out this for 2 days, until i search launchpad
[16:38] <storbeck> I use irssi
[16:38] <hermes_> I have tried copying /etc/X11/xorg.conf from the live-cd to the disk, but that didnt help me
[16:38] <_VIM_> satan use screen + irssi :)
[16:39] <nickrud> xpot, that's encouraging, actually.   gksu gedit /var/lib/dpkg/info/vmware-server.postrm , find the line with   set -e   on it. put exit 0   on the next line by itself. If you don't find set -e near the top, just put   exit 0 on the third line by itself. Then run the force removeal again
[16:39] <storbeck> _VIM_: If you're addicted to IRC use screen :P
[16:39] <ineedubuntuhelp> how can i tell what drivers are loaded?
[16:39] <whatev> how can i see my default gateway (router)'s ip address from ifconfig?
[16:39] <_VIM_> with screen + irssi you can restart X and still stay on IRC :)
[16:39] <xpot> nickrud: you are exciting me, performing now
[16:39] <nickrud> xpot brb, not leaving
[16:40] <satans> does xchat have a notification pop-up option?
[16:40] <satans> cos if it does i'm switching back
[16:41] <hermes_> does anyone have a clue_
[16:41] <user___> ineedubuntuhelp: lsmod
[16:41] <Chris_Were> does anyone know anything about the ati drivers problem that cause x to hang?
[16:41] <satans> yawn
[16:42] <hermes_> how does the setup work? Earlier the config was placed under "device" in xorg.conf , now it only says "configured device"
[16:42] <_VIM_> satans: yes they're called balloon tips, but i think it requires the libnotify package for that to work
[16:43] <ineedubuntuhelp> if ndiswrapper comes up using lsmod and it says 'used by' and a 0 in the column, is it loaded or not?
[16:43] <hermes_> how come xorg.conf doesnt specify driver type anymore?
[16:44] <xpot> nickrud: It was a little different this tiem --> http://paste.ubuntu.com/112488/
[16:44] <nickrud> xpot, how's it going?
[16:44] <lorenzosu> I'm running ubuntu 8.10 with gnome. All my 'kde-based' applications are broken: I can only runthem as su
[16:44] <Pirate_Hunter> hermes_, actually it does if you set it up manually the new autoconfig of intrepid does it for you without too much work on xog.conf, however, if you're like me you're better off doing it manually
[16:45] <ubuntu_> hola
[16:45] <nickrud> xpot, that means it all went well.   try sudo apt-get -f install. if there are no errors, you're good to go. Except for some manual cleanup that might be needed
[16:45] <hermes_> Section "Device"
[16:45] <hermes_> 	Identifier	"Configured Video Device"
[16:45] <hermes_> EndSection
[16:45] <ubuntu_> te gusta el pene
[16:45] <Pirate_Hunter> lorenzosu, would that be because your in gnome but still there should be support for kde apps they shouldnt be broken
[16:45] <nickrud> xpot, cleanup of the file system, not the package management system, it should be ok
[16:45] <ubuntu_> sapo culias
[16:45] <hermes_> Pirate_Hunter: not very helpful as you can see
[16:45] <storbeck> hermes_: Mine says that too.
[16:45] <ubuntu_> sao culiao
[16:46] <ubuntu_> sapo culiao
[16:46] <lorenzosu> Pirate_Hunter: Everything was ok, till I installed kdenlive )I think)
[16:46] <Pirate_Hunter> hermes, do your xorg.conf yourself best helpful guide you'll need is the arch linux beginners guide to do that
[16:46] <vigo> !sp
[16:46] <hermes_> storbeck: how can I specify something that works? The only thing currently working is the vesa-drivers, but that would only give me 800x600 as resolution....
[16:46] <Tindtc_> Ну что, ни у кого delta 66 нет?
[16:47] <Mighty> lorenzosu: try $user:$group ~/.kde
[16:47] <ortsvorsteher> !ru | Tindtc_
[16:47] <nickrud> !ru | Tindtc_
[16:47] <storbeck> hermes_: You may have to write the xorg yourself.
[16:47] <nyaa> I always had weird problems doing xorg.conf, the last time I tried to do that by myself it ended in a reinstall =/
[16:47] <Pirate_Hunter> lorenzosu, like i said that shouldnt happen go back to a kde session and try running them to see if they work, however, gnome should support kde i think you need to install a package for that but aint certain since i dont use kde
[16:47] <storbeck> You can use the arch manual that Pirate_Hunter said
[16:48] <lorenzosu> Mighty: Can you be a little more specific please?
[16:48] <lorenzosu> Pirate_Hunter: Yes they work in gnome too, already tested
[16:48] <vigo> I need some coffee,,,,,
[16:48] <ortsvorsteher> !coffee | vigo
[16:48] <hermes_> storbeck: The odd thing is that it doesn't seem to help reverting to any of the older versions of the file that lies in the same directory as a backup....still the stupid warning about "low graphics mode " upon boot
[16:48] <Wunderbar> boom
[16:49] <ineedubuntuhelp> is there any other reason the wireless card would remain unclaimed if the driver (ndiswrapper) is installed and loaded (i'm using intrepid ibex, and it should have out of the box support for the intel 5100)
[16:49] <bullgard4> What is a 'wireless extension'? (iwconfig prints: "wifi0: No wireless extensions.")
[16:49] <storbeck> You don't have the right drivers
[16:49] <xpot> nickrud: I think I am in love with you! (pastebin.ubuntu.com not responding) --> http://pastebin.com/d4d34b9f9
[16:49] <ineedubuntuhelp> i copied it from my copy of windows
[16:49] <ineedubuntuhelp> should i try something else?
[16:49] <ortsvorsteher> !enter | ineedubuntuhelp
[16:49] <Mighty> lorenzosu: pm
[16:50] <giada> ciao
[16:50] <vigo> Can I do a check CD/ISO without installing?
[16:50] <nyaa> ineedubuntuhelp I probably missed it but what wifi card do you have?
[16:50] <G__81> i did debootstrap and i created a Ubuntu FS for UML but when i launch it i get 6 windows open automatically how do i stop this
[16:50] <hermes_> is there anyway I can copy working information from this session? [currently running a working live session on the problem comp]
[16:50] <G__81> can someone help me with this ?
[16:50] <Pirate_Hunter> hermes_,  have you got any backups of your xorg.conf do ls -a /etc/X11 and check if you got xorg111** etc something on those lines that should be backups that the system made
[16:50] <ineedubuntuhelp> nyaa: intel 5100
[16:50] <xpot> nickrud: removing alien and never doing that again! whew.
[16:50] <HackSign> hi room,i need help.
[16:51] <nickrud> xpot, ok, you're good. The only thing is, you may have some orphan files floating around, most likely in /etc/vmware* . What we did was skip anything done during the post removal phase. You can look at that script, see if there's anything you want to follow up on.
[16:51] <HackSign> i've installed Linux on my usb stick
[16:51] <hermes_> Pirate_Hunter: I have awfully many....thing is that they got created due to failure of loading the proprietary drivers
[16:51] <Pirate_Hunter> hermes: if your on a live cd you can copy nearly anything as long as the hard disk is mounted
[16:51] <HackSign> but i can not boot my pc from it
[16:51] <ortsvorsteher> !enter | HackSign
[16:51] <nickrud> xpot, in return for my help here, I command you to jump in whenever you see someone considering alien and say NOOOOO! :)
[16:51] <HackSign> :)
[16:51] <ineedubuntuhelp> hacksign: is your bios loading from it?
[16:51] <vigo> HackSign: Is USB entered as a boot device 1 in BIOS?
[16:51] <Pirate_Hunter> hermes: just go google and type arch linux beginners guide read the part to do with xorg
[16:52] <hermes_> Pirate_Hunter: I am well aware of that, not the first time I have to go through this ;) What files are f*** up that I can replace with fresh files from the live cd?
[16:52] <xpot> nickrud: definitely! looking at the scripts now.  I really apreciate your help.  I thought I was a lost cause there for a min. -=0)
[16:52] <HackSign> ineedubuntuhelp vigo,my bios recogenized it
[16:52] <storbeck> !language
[16:53] <nickrud> xpot, there is nearly never a need to reinstall in linux. Just the problem of figuring out what needs doing :)
[16:53] <Pirate_Hunter> hermes: if you got multiple backups of xorg.con created by the system just nano or cat each of them and see which you want than cp them with the name xorg.conf than restart otherwise just follow my advise and redo your xorg.conf
[16:53] <xpot> nickrud: I figured that much, just kept getting the "i don't know" from everyone.  So I am glad I found you. ;)
[16:53] <G__81> can someone help me with this ?
[16:54] <G__81> why is that the File system created with Ubuntu launches 6 terminals
[16:54] <HackSign> ineedubuntuhelp,but i got the following error when booting:Kernel panic not synicing:Unable to mout root fs on unknown-block
[16:54] <G__81> how do i stop it ?
[16:54] <storbeck> G__81: What?
[16:54] <vigo> HackSign: So USB is first boot device, insert USB and start
[16:54] <Pirate_Hunter> HackSign, which file system launches six terminals?
[16:54]  * xpot protesting --> NO TO ALIEN! ALL OUR BASE BELONG TO US! NO TO ALIEN!
[16:54] <G__81> storbeck, i created Ubuntu FS for UML with debootstrap when i launch it i get 6 terminals opened automatically
[16:54] <hermes_> Pirate_Hunter: They look pretty much the same, the files containing Section "Device"
[16:54] <hermes_> 	Identifier	"Configured Video Device"
[16:54] <hermes_> EndSection doesnt solve my problem. Where can I find working config that this session used to sucessfully boot?
[16:54] <Pirate_Hunter> HackSign,  nvm
[16:55] <jtaji> G__81: practically every linux distro starts 6 virtual consoles, you can change that of course
[16:55] <G__81> jtaji, i am not able to change that how do i suppress that
[16:55] <Pirate_Hunter> hermes: you cant they are gone you have to do it yourself now or search online
[16:55] <pisi> How could I stop network manager from managing a certain device?
[16:55] <hermes_> Pirate_Hunter: The xorg.conf that this session uses is identical to the older backups I have stored on the HDD
[16:55] <adaptr> dos anybody know if I can wreck the console-kit-daemon stuff out ? it always runs hundreds of threads for no good reason - all my systems have one user, me
[16:55] <Pirate_Hunter> jtaji,  dont think that is what he/she meant
[16:56] <silv3r_m00n> hi there I am looking for some graphic editor tool apart from gimp and inkscape
[16:56] <HackSign> Pirate_Hunter,ext2
[16:56] <vigo> ahhhh
[16:56] <Pirate_Hunter> hermes, since you refuse to listen i am going to tell you one more time it is gone if you want you can redo your xorg.conf
[16:56] <storbeck> silv3r_m00n: photoshop
[16:56] <vigo> silvermoon: irfanview
[16:56] <G__81> jtaji, can you help me on how to suppress this ?
[16:57] <silv3r_m00n> storbeck: is there a linux version ?
[16:57] <storbeck> No, but it runs in wine
[16:57] <dsk2> Picasa 3
[16:57] <silv3r_m00n> storbeck: something that is available for linux
[16:57] <storbeck> Blender :)
[16:57] <vigo> irfanview is linux compatible, also runes with Wine nice
[16:58] <bullgard4> storbeck: Can you prove that I do not have the right drivers.
[16:58] <silv3r_m00n> I am looking for something like gimp
[16:58] <Besogon> How can I test my HDD with LiveCD? That HDD so ancient...
[16:59] <silv3r_m00n> the problem with gimp is that shapes can be drawn and managed easily
[16:59] <amikrop> Excuse me, is anybody able to watch this live streaming, and if yes, tell me with which program/configuration? http://sports.novaondemand.gr/watch.aspx?id=LGRF090201AEKA_OLYM
[16:59] <jtaji> G__81: move tty1 - tty6 are in /etc/event.d/ , you can remove any ones you want
[16:59] <jtaji> G__81: s/move//
[16:59] <G__81> you mean remove any one of those ?
[16:59] <storbeck> bullgard4: Sorry, I was telling that to hermes_
[17:00] <storbeck> Not you
[17:00] <storbeck> What was your question?
[17:00] <jtaji> G__81: if you only leave tty1 you'll only have one VC
[17:00] <vigo> silv3r_m00n: Qcad?
[17:00] <G__81> deleted from 1 to 5
[17:00] <jtaji> silv3r_m00n: inkscape
[17:00] <vigo> Yes, I agree on Inkscape
[17:00] <G__81> jtaji, i deleted 1 to 5 but now i am not able to type
[17:01] <G__81> anything
[17:01] <silv3r_m00n> qcad let me try
[17:01] <storbeck> silv3r_m00n: Why don't you just look in Synaptic under the Graphics tab?
[17:01] <LukaszJ> Eh, Sorry what command do I use to search for a "x" package name within another one?
[17:01] <Pirate_Hunter> G_81, how do you go about deleting your tty I will find it useful for my old spec laptop
[17:01] <vigo> qcad is a pretty intense widget
[17:01] <CaptSpify> Anyone know how to keybind the Right-CTRL key?
[17:01] <Besogon> Do anybody know test HDD with Live-CD??
[17:02] <s0101> I am stucked with remote desktop setup i have tried a lot to make it work
[17:02] <storbeck> Besogon: What do you mean by test
[17:02] <Pirate_Hunter> !fsck > Besogon
[17:02] <hermes_> Pirate_Hunter: Sorry, didnt mean to sound ignorant. could you check this out? http://pastebin.com/d77aa9d0c paste of an old xorg.conf
[17:02] <jtaji> G__81: maybe delete 2 - 6, or you might have to change something somewhere else
[17:02] <LukaszJ> I mean, contest of other packages
[17:02] <G__81> now i deleted 1 to 5 i am not able to access anything
[17:02] <G__81> how do i recover
[17:02] <adaptr> Pirate_Hunter: remove or modify the files in /etc/event.d as you see fit
[17:02] <G__81> it
[17:02] <vigo> My trash bin disappeared from the lil taskbar on the bottom...?
[17:02] <Cocotaso-> does anyone know a good  reference where i can read about how to get my ubuntu read my external USB driver that is NTFS format?
[17:03] <G__81> ok
[17:03] <G__81> i am able to type in the sixth terminal
[17:03] <G__81> but i still get 5 windows open
[17:03] <adaptr> vigo: it's just an applet; edit the prefs or re-install it
[17:03] <storbeck> Cocotaso-: Just mount it
[17:03] <SiDi> vigo: right click the taskbar, click on "Add", and get a new trash bin ;)
[17:03] <vigo> Thank you
[17:03] <Mean_Admin_> all right, checking, trying to understand: rsync -a --delete dir0/ dir1/  would copy dir0 totally, as in information would occupy twice the disk space now
[17:03] <G__81> jtaji, i am able to type in the 6th window but i just get 5 windows where in i cannot type anythin
[17:03] <storbeck> Mean_Admin_: Yes
[17:03] <Pirate_Hunter> adaptr, thank you been wondering about that for a while might pop out the lappy 2morrow if i get some free time
[17:03] <Mean_Admin_> so if dir0/ melts,  dir1/ would still contain the info
[17:03] <jtaji> G__81: that makes sense if no tty is started in them
[17:04] <G__81> yeah so now how do i stop those 5 windows from opening
[17:04] <Jeffrey04> er... I tried upgrading from hardy to intrepid but i stopped the upgrade while it was downloading packages
[17:04] <Pirate_Hunter> hermes_, just saw that isnt it working for you, which section are you trying to fix?
[17:04] <Mean_Admin_> then  cp -al dir1/ dir2/  would hard link files, so it would take an insignificant extra space
[17:04] <G__81> can i remove /etc/event.d/rc1 to rc5 ?
[17:04] <s0101> remote desktop knowledge is needed
[17:04] <Stefano1> hi, I would create a presentation with avidemux using some pictures. Does anybody know of a tutorial about it?
[17:04] <nickrud> G__81, you mean consoles, the text ones without gui? Why would you want to get them to stop? Basically, you can't since the gui is on the 7th
[17:04] <nickrud> G__81, nooooo!
[17:04] <jtaji> G__81: you are throwing me calling them windows :p
[17:05] <Jeffrey04> then i restarted the upgrade later and all of a sudden update-manager says im intrepid but i'm still in hardy
[17:05] <G__81> the reason why i meant windows is that i just want a command line terminal but all these opens in separate windows
[17:05] <Jeffrey04> lsb_release -a gives me Description:	Ubuntu 8.04.1
[17:05] <Mean_Admin_> lastly,  when I run, again, rsync - a --delete dir0/ dir1/   ,dir1/ would be modified (files added and removed) to mirror  dir0/    BUT if files are removed, they would not be physcially deleted because cp -la made a hard link earlier right ?
[17:05] <Besogon> storbeck: test on fault sectors
[17:05] <nickrud> G__81, what you're messing with there is the fundamental startup process of the whole os, be very afraid and careful
[17:05] <storbeck> Besogon: fsck
[17:05] <G__81> nickrud, just need one terminal to run my programs
[17:05] <Besogon> storbeck: ok
[17:05] <storbeck> G__81: Why did you install any WM?
[17:05] <Wunderbar> shoop
[17:06] <hermes_> Pirate_Hunter: The odd thing is that this file have worked earlier....now it doesn't. If I change 'ati' to 'vesa' I'm able to boot x normally, but the part regarding various resolutions is for some reason excluded. I only get to use 800x600
[17:06] <nickrud> G__81, console? the ones you hit alt-f1-> alt-<f6 to get to?
[17:06] <G__81> storbeck, i didnt install any VM. The terminal opens in separate xterm kind of windows
[17:06] <s0101> Can somebody please help me?
[17:06] <G__81> nickrud, no
[17:07] <G__81> nickrud, it opens in separate windows like xterm with minimize, close buttons
[17:07] <Mean_Admin_> s0101: wha do you wanna do ?
[17:07] <G__81> when i press alt + tab i see 6 virtual Consoles minimized
[17:07] <s0101> setup ubuntu remote desktop
[17:07] <nickrud> G__81, ok, lets share some terminology so we're talking about the same things. consoles are text only, full screen, start with something about tty1-6 at the top. One of those?
[17:07] <G__81> nickrud, you got it ? :)
[17:07] <s0101> i get connection closed or timeout
[17:07] <Mean_Admin_> s0101: command line or visual ?
[17:07] <s0101> visual
[17:07] <Mean_Admin_> oh
[17:07] <storbeck> Just press ctrl+alt+f1 :/
[17:07] <s0101> :)
[17:07] <G__81> nickrud, yes
[17:08] <Mean_Admin_> s0101: so you set it up and it works except you get connection closed ?
[17:08] <G__81> nickrud, it says Virtual Console on top of every window
[17:08] <s0101> I want to connect to a computer on my router
[17:08] <hermes_> Pirate_Hunter: I think some script added a # after some of the sections, but only after the title....does this mean that the entire section automaticly will be excluded or does it only skip the parts on the current line ?
[17:08] <G__81> i dont want any GUI Stuff all i need is to run my C programs there
[17:08] <jtaji> G__81: stop trolling
[17:08] <nickrud> G__81, ok, those are not windows. they are consoles. Windows are rectangles on a gui desktop
[17:08] <Pirate_Hunter> hermes: no give me a sec
[17:08] <s0101> I have configured firestarter to be open for port 5900
[17:08] <storbeck> G__81: Well, you have to be using some sort of WM if you are getting more than one terminal
[17:09] <s0101> and i have configured remote computer for remote desktop
[17:09] <ortsvorsteher> !enter | s0101
[17:09] <s0101> i use a dlink 604 router
[17:09] <s0101> sorry
[17:09] <G__81> storbeck, i just debootstrap and created the UbuntuFS
[17:09] <Mean_Admin_> s0101: you suing ssh -x ?
[17:09] <nickrud> G__81, so, delete tty2 -> tty6 in /etc/event.d/ and reboot. Or better yet, just leave them cuz you might have a crash in your program and need a backdoor into the system to fix things
[17:10] <s0101> not sure but i want a graphich connection
[17:10] <jtaji> G__81: my bad, ignore trolling comment :p
[17:10] <Pirate_Hunter> hermes: rename that xorg.conf to xorg.conf.bak plz than delete the original file
[17:10] <whatev> how can i see my default gateway (router)'s ip address from ifconfig?
[17:10] <ortsvorsteher> whatev: try netstat -rn to see your default route
[17:10] <s0101> i thought remote desktop that comes with ubuntu should be the easy option
[17:11] <Pirate_Hunter> hermes: heck ill just post my current xorg.conf and you can see what is missing
[17:11] <jtaji> whatev: or just 'route'
[17:11] <G__81> nickrud, yes exactly i deleted it and now what happens is that i get only one  Console where in i can type but i still get 5 consoles where in i cannot type anything. I just get a blank screen in those 5 console
[17:11] <Mean_Admin_> s0101: well, if you are inactive on a remote connection, it can close on you
[17:11] <s0101> this is the first time i try to use it
[17:12] <nickrud> G__81, what about when you hit 6, 7, or 8
[17:12] <Mean_Admin_> s0101: so is it , you leave it inactive and then it dies on you?
[17:12] <s0101> I dont get a connection
[17:12] <jtaji> nickrud: he is using UML, which is why his VCs show up as windows
[17:12] <whatev> jtaji typing 'route' just showed an ip of <IP_ADDRESS>, but my router is <IP_ADDRESS>
[17:12] <G__81> i get the tty6 properly coz i ve deleted the remaining 5
[17:12] <Mean_Admin_> s0101: well, what did you install/configure to do this ?
[17:12] <storbeck> G__81: Although I may get flamed for this, but why did you go through the trouble of setting up the debootstrap and ubuntufs?
[17:13] <storbeck> You could have just installed a base gentoo distro
[17:13] <Mean_Admin_> s0101: wjhere did you get to before it brakes down?
[17:13] <fabio> hi
[17:13] <jtaji> whatev: there should be a line after that, usually <IP_ADDRESS>   gateway_ip
[17:13] <s0101> And i get 2 error messages before i configure firestarter for port 5900 it said connection closed after 1 sec anfter i open port it says conec time out
[17:13] <G__81> storbeck, i need to run some routing simulation with quagga
[17:13] <s3a> in openoffice.org spreadsheet, how do i make a graph like to show a statistic for my project?
[17:13] <storbeck> Ah
[17:13] <fabio> cant get my quickcam  to work with amsn
[17:13] <bullgard4> What is a 'wireless extension'? (iwconfig prints: "wifi0: No wireless extensions.")
[17:14] <whatev> jtaji there isnt, maybe because it's my laptop connected wirelessly?
[17:14] <G__81> storbeck, thats my actual requirement
[17:14] <fabio> i'm desperate
[17:14] <jtaji> whatev: you should have a gateway in that case also
[17:14] <Mean_Admin_> if I have Dir1 and I do a    cp -la Dir1/ Dir2  and then delete a file in Dir1, this file should still exist physically on the hdd , right ?
[17:14] <ortsvorsteher> bullgard4: you system doesnt detect a wireless device.
[17:14] <fabio> gqcam works
[17:14] <Pirate_Hunter> hermes: this was done using the arch linux wiki and works well for me, you should do your xorg yourslef shouldnt rely on the system to do it for you and back it up http://pastebin.ca/1324599
[17:14] <fabio> so the problem is with amsn
[17:14] <fabio> i think
[17:14] <nickrud> jtaji, ah, then I guess I know nothing about that. G__81 http://user-mode-linux.sourceforge.net/configure.html has some console config options, you might find enough there or terms to google
[17:14] <ortsvorsteher> !enter | fabio
[17:15] <jtaji> Mean_Admin_: that's right, you have to delete all existing hard links to delete the file
[17:15] <Mean_Admin_> s0101: ok so you configured firestarter to open port 5900, anythign else ?
[17:15] <s0101> I type in the ip which is the same like this computer and press connect after i see my uder name s0101 not sure if it is this comp or the remote but if i press connect it says time out
[17:15] <Mean_Admin_> jtaji: all right, so rsync -a -delete    combined with      cp -la     commands can make a functional incremental backup system
[17:15] <whatev> jtaji for gateway it just says *
[17:15] <ghone> bullgard4 Madwifi creates wifi0 as a starting point for creating other device files.  please look at the output of the command "ifconfig"
[17:15] <nickrud> G__81, appears to have all the excuciating details: http://user-mode-linux.sourceforge.net/old/input.html
[17:16] <bullgard4> ortsvorsteher: Well, in fact my computer detects a wireless device. --  Can you please tell me what a 'wireless extension' is.
[17:16] <s0101> or connection closed after i reconfigured the ports for remote in  d link i get connection closed again
[17:16] <whatev> oh wait it shows the ip for gateway when i type netstat -rn, just nto route
[17:16] <jtaji> Mean_Admin_: a snapshotting system, yeah
[17:16] <user___> s3a: insert -> chart
[17:16] <whatev> for route it just says 'wireless broadb'
[17:16] <Mean_Admin_> s0101: so you type the ip address of the other computer, that is on LAN
[17:16] <Andy80> hi
[17:16] <fabio> oke sorry, so my problem is with the amsn webcam, when I want to configure it in amsn it shows a black screen
[17:16] <miha> fabio: what kind of webcam?
[17:16] <s0101> It is 2 computers on a router and they have the same ip
[17:16] <bashir> hey
[17:17] <hermes_> Pirate_Hunter: Thanks, I'll see how I can use this in my config
[17:17] <ghone> bullgard4 think of wireless entensions as the interfaces that wireless ethernet adapters have, but other ethernet adapters don't
[17:17] <Mean_Admin_> s0101: they should NOT have the same ip
[17:17] <bashir> i got a dell mini a couple of days ago
[17:17] <bashir> i used to be able to use the wireless just fine
[17:17] <ortsvorsteher> bullgard4: as i tryed to get wireless, in documentation it tells me, that your message means, there is no wireless device detected. i try to link you to the docu.
[17:17] <bashir> but today it stopped working
[17:17] <s0101> how can i change that because both are working to surf with
[17:17] <ortsvorsteher> !wireless | bullgard4
[17:17] <olimpico> Can someone tell me if the update from 8.04.1 to 8.04.2 happens automatically if I "apt-get update && apt-get dist-upgrade" ?
[17:17] <miha> fabio: i just had such problem
[17:17] <Mean_Admin_> s0101: an IP is an address, and having the same address confuses apps, you should never have two computers with same IP
[17:17] <H4x0r> how can i burn a ubuntu iso with xubuntu
[17:17] <H4x0r> how can i burn a ubuntu iso with xubuntu
[17:17] <fabio> it's a logitech quickcam express, very old, but well supported, gqcam works
[17:18] <bashir> the mini will connect to my network
[17:18] <miha> fabio: dark picture at logitech quickcam with gspca driver https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/287336
[17:18] <ortsvorsteher> bullgard4: i think in wifi docs it will be explained what no wireless extension detected means
[17:18] <s0101> I have dlink 604 can i change in the dlink setup?
[17:18] <jtaji> olimpico: or even just apt-get upgrade... it's not like a normal distro release
[17:18] <Mean_Admin_> s0101: how do you know they have same IP, I have a feeling you might have not got that part right
[17:18] <medoctron> H4x0r why would you do that?
[17:18] <bashir> but then no pages load
[17:18] <miha> fabio: i just found this for my QuickCam Chat

[17:18] <miha> fabio: camera driver doesnt support brightness settings, but you can set it manually
[17:18] <medoctron> H4x0r what about apt-get install ubuntu-desktop
[17:19] <jtaji> olimpico: so the answer is yes, if I wasn't clear ;)
[17:19] <medoctron> and then uninstall xfce stuff
[17:19] <phillipt> H4x0r: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BurningIsoHowto
[17:19] <medoctron> or like that xD
[17:19] <Mean_Admin_> s0101: hah! there you go :) sorry wrong
[17:19] <H4x0r> will that delete the xubuntu and all of itz stuff
[17:19] <spucki> hi Ive got ubuntu 8.04 and my internet connection is too slow can someone help me?
[17:19] <storbeck> H4x0r: no
[17:19] <s0101> ?
[17:19] <s3a> user___, thx! but i dont know what to enter for "range"
[17:19] <Mean_Admin_> s0101: ok so, there are two IPs, internal and external
[17:19] <medoctron> H4x0r no, just look ak phillipt 's link
[17:19] <H4x0r> and make it 100% ubuntu
[17:20] <s0101> ok
[17:20] <s0101> one is for the router i belive
[17:20] <BlindCamel> anyone here have a geforce 8400 gs video card
[17:20] <Mean_Admin_> s0101: from the World's point of view, your router has one IP which is like <IP_ADDRESS> or something
[17:21] <Mean_Admin_> s0101: so if you have a friend on Mars and he wants to talk to YOUR router, your router's address, from HIS point of view is <IP_ADDRESS> or something
[17:21] <user___> s3a: before inserting the chart you can hold and click the cells to select them
[17:21] <s0101> http://<IP_ADDRESS>:8080/
[17:21] <H4x0r> how can i make xubuntu into 100% ubuntu
[17:21] <H4x0r> how can i make xubuntu into 100% ubuntu
[17:21] <s3a> user___, what's a cell?
[17:21] <bullgard4> ghone: The output of the command 'ifconfig' does not mention any 'wireless extension'. The output of ifconfig is not hierarchical either.
[17:21] <s3a> H4x0r, sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop && sudo apt-get remove --purge xubuntu-desktop
[17:21] <ortsvorsteher> H4x0r: install ubuntu-desktop, remove xubuntu-desktop
[17:22] <Mean_Admin_> s0101:ok that <IP_ADDRESS> is your router's ip address as seen from the INSIDE, that is, from the point of view of the computers that have cables running from them to the router
[17:22] <s0101> ok
[17:22] <user___> s3a: cell is like one of the boxes in a spreadsheet ("field")
[17:22] <s0101> how do i check what ip i should use?
[17:22] <Mean_Admin_> s0101: almost there
[17:22] <s0101> :)
[17:22] <ortsvorsteher> !who | s0101
[17:22] <spucki> please help me my broadband ineternet connection is too slow in ubunt what shoul I do please prvt me
[17:23] <BlindCamel> ubuntu will only run in low graphics mode, im assuming it because i need to install the drivers for the Gforce 8400gs card i have downloded it from nvidia.com and it saved as a pkg1.run file on my desktop how do i install it ?
[17:23] <s0101> sorry
[17:23] <ortsvorsteher> !details | spucki
[17:23] <Mean_Admin_> s0101: so your router gives each computer connected to it an internal ip address. this internal ip address is not seen from the outside world, it is only seen from people connected to the router
[17:23] <s3a> user___, o so i just select cells and then do the whole inserting chart thing?
[17:23] <Mean_Admin_> s0101: press Alt + F2
[17:23] <user___> s3a: thats one way, yes
[17:23] <s0101> mean admin : done
[17:23] <Mean_Admin_> s0101: or actually, open the terminal (Applications  - Accesories  - Terminal)
[17:24] <s0101> mean admin: done
[17:24] <Mean_Admin_> s0101: sorry, I don't remeber the alt+f2 way fo doing it
[17:24] <dhinesh> hai
[17:24] <Mean_Admin_> s0101: all rifght, type in    ifconfig
[17:24] <Mean_Admin_> and press enter
[17:24] <ortsvorsteher> !tab | s0101
[17:24] <Mean_Admin_> s0101: you'll see all sorts of info but you shuold find something   like      <IP_ADDRESS>
[17:25] <Mean_Admin_> s0101: or <IP_ADDRESS>
[17:25] <spucki> Im running ubuntu 8.04 an have cable modem I did all the settings like ipe dns servers, etc and Ive got internet now but it's too slow like browsing, etc.
[17:25] <Mean_Admin_> s0101: or something like that
[17:25] <dhinesh> hai
[17:25] <dhinesh> hello
[17:25] <linux_guy> anyone know a dvd ripper for ubuntu that will copy a SONY dvd?
 http://pastebin.com/m221fdd91
[17:25] <Mean_Admin_> s0101: that should be your internal ip. When a computer, connected to the same router, wants to talk to another computer, on the same LAN (connected to the same router), it will use this internal ip address to identify it
[17:25] <n8schicht> hello! I heard ubuntu project is going to switch from gnome to kde!  O_O  is this true?
[17:26] <ortsvorsteher> !ot | n8schicht
[17:26] <Mean_Admin_> s0101: <IP_ADDRESS>
[17:26] <s0101> look at my paste :)
[17:26] <user___> n8schicht: link?
[17:26] <linux_guy> n8schicht, i hope not
[17:26] <H4x0r>  if i sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop && sudo apt-get remove --purge xubuntu-desktop will i have 100% ubuntu like if it where installed from a cd?
[17:26] <H4x0r>  if i sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop && sudo apt-get remove --purge xubuntu-desktop will i have 100% ubuntu like if it where installed from a cd?
[17:26] <n8schicht> ubottu: ok tnaks :)
[17:26] <bullgard4> ghone: I will try to build upon the model you suggested. --  Thank you very much.
[17:26] <Trijntje> i'm trying to connect to a wireless network with nm-applet. Something goes wrong but i don't know what. Is there a command-line way to do this so that i get some output with what is wrong?
[17:26] <Mean_Admin_> s0101: so that's your computer's, the one you correctly opened terminal on at, ip's address
[17:26] <ortsvorsteher> !enter | H4x0r
[17:26] <ldiamond> Can anyone tell me how to use a remote (Logitech Harmony) with my computer (with a ITE IR device: it87 I think)?
[17:26] <dhinesh> hai
[17:27] <linux_guy> how can you copy a SONY dvd in ubuntu?
[17:27] <s0101> now i am on the computer i want to use to se the other computer
[17:27] <Mean_Admin_> s0101: ok well  same  procedure
[17:27] <bullgard4> ortsvorsteher: I will study the document that you suggested. Thank you.
[17:27] <Pint> H4x0r, you will be using ubuntu and not kubuntu, but it wont be a fresh install. You will be using gnome though.
[17:27] <ortsvorsteher> bullgard4: you're welcome
[17:27] <Mean_Admin_> s0101: write down the IP of the remote copmuter and the compter being accesed
[17:28] <spucki>  can someone help me with ubuntu 8.04 and too slow broadband ineternet connection?
[17:28] <peterkirn> I'm trying to find out the current status of the realtime kernel branch for Intrepid ... is it still best to just wait for 9.04 and stay away from -rt or is there now a build worth trying experimentally?
[17:28] <Mean_Admin_> s0101: those are the internal ips you gotta use to connect from one computer to another  on a LAN
[17:28] <ortsvorsteher> !patience | spucki
[17:28] <s0101> i go to remote desktop viewer and put in <IP_ADDRESS>
[17:28] <s0101> ?
[17:28] <Mean_Admin_> s0101: well, is  <IP_ADDRESS> the IP of the computer you want to gain access to ?
[17:28] <olimpico> jtaji: thanks a lot!
[17:28] <miha> spucki: are you sure it is ubuntu problem? not your line flood with torrents? or bad router firmware?
[17:28] <Mean_Admin_> s0101: or is it the computer from which you want to connect ?
[17:29] <nas> where do I find a list of packages that came with feisty?
[17:29] <s0101> this is the computer i want to use to connect to the other one
[17:29] <Mean_Admin_> spucki: download the cd as a friend's house ?
[17:29] <user___> peterkirn: jaunty has the latest kernel, a live-cd is worth trying anytime, for support #ubuntu+1
[17:29] <spucki> Ive got xp and ubuntu and in xp is internet speed normal...
[17:29] <s0101> and from here i wrote ifconfig
[17:29] <Mean_Admin_> s0101: ok so that's the client's IP address, you need the other address
[17:29] <ortsvorsteher> !who | s0101
[17:30] <Mean_Admin_> s0101: you gotta walk over t o the computer you want to connect to and find it's IP address
[17:30] <nyaa> is there a way to disable ipv6?
[17:30] <BlindCamel> can some one help me install a nvidia graphics driver i run the cmd in terminal and it says im running x server and i need to exit x befor installing this driver any help ?
[17:30] <phillipt> hey all, i have a weird problem, i play nexuiz running fullscreen but when i quit the image doesnt go away, i have to ctrl-alt-backspace to get back into ubuntu. does anyone else have this problem?

[17:30] <horstle> hi
[17:30] <vincey> hi, has anyone had problems with their wireless stopping working after a kernel update?
[17:30] <Hekil> õàé óðîäû
[17:30] <Pirate_Hunter> H4x0r, can someone suggest an app like nero for ubuntu i need to re-arrange a dvd i.e. remove certain files and burn them again?
[17:30] <Hekil> ïî ðóññêè ãàâàðèòå?
[17:30] <miha> Pirate_Hunter: k3b ?
[17:30] <ortsvorsteher> !anyone | vincey
[17:30] <Mean_Admin_> spucki: I do not understand your question
[17:30] <nickrud> Hekil, your character set isn't readable
[17:30] <Pirate_Hunter> H4x0r, forget that didnt notice your name was there it was for eveyrone
, you got this ?
[17:31] <Pirate_Hunter> miha, hmm will look at it
[17:31] <miha> Pirate_Hunter: that's what i use, even on gnome:)
[17:31] <miha> it's closest thing to nero for free
[17:31] <Mean_Admin_> looks to me like Hekil is just seuqentually writing down stuff from the 220s and up
[17:31] <vincey> sorry, thats my question -- does anyone know how to reinstall the wireless drivers or whatever is needed to get it working again?
done
[17:32] <Mean_Admin_> s0101: good, what is it ?
[17:32] <Pirate_Hunter> miha, ok will install it and test it hopefully it is straight forward
[17:32] <helper>  <vincey> what system you got ?
[17:32] <VioletsPie> what's a good benchmarking app for ubuntu
[17:32] <miha> i didnt edit compilations, but you can click new cd images or burn existing .iso (just iso)
[17:32] <dou213> hi which port do i gotta open in my router config for phpmyadmin and mysql?
[17:32] <balrog__> is there a way to get md5sum to compare md5 hashes for me?
[17:32] <ghone> VioletsPie consider Phoronix Test Suite
[17:33] <spucki> Meyn_Admin I use XP and Ubuntu 8.04 got broadband internet wchich is in xp normal and in Ubuntu is too slow, i. e. browsing and downloading
[17:33] <s0101> (Mean admin) <IP_ADDRESS>
[17:33] <Mean_Admin_> dou213: wiki has a list of default ports app ask for
[17:33] <Hylsy> Does somebody thing irc rules?
[17:33] <zash> balrog__: md5sum file1 > file1.md5 & md5sum file2 > file2.md5 & wait; diff file1.md5 file2.md5
[17:33] <miha> dou213: i'm not sure you want to open mysql ports
[17:33] <zacktu> should movie player or vlc play a dvd movie as installed?
[17:33] <miha> dou213: phpmyadmin uses local connection to mysql, so do web pages
[17:33] <s0101> (Mean admin) http://pastebin.com/m67c54d9
[17:33] <vincey> helper: I upgraded to -11 on 8.10, I think I followed this thread http://forums.msiwind.net/viewtopic.php?f=39&t=4954
[17:34] <s0101> that paste is from my other computer
[17:34] <Mean_Admin_> s0101: perfect! then your client's ip is <IP_ADDRESS> and your server's (or remote computer) ip is <IP_ADDRESS>. Now, from your client computer, you gotta type in the ip address of the computer you wanna connect to (in this case <IP_ADDRESS>)
[17:34] <dou213> miha, why not? i want to be able to login to phpmyadmin from extern
[17:34] <Apteno> zacktu, without dvd ?
[17:34] <hermes_> &bye
[17:34] <Mean_Admin_> s0101: so there we go, at least we solved the ip confusion
[17:34] <zash> balrog__: and you can do md5sum -c md5sums
[17:34] <vincey> wireless works in -9, which is what I'm in now, just need to get it working in -11
[17:34] <srini3> Hello all.. Can anyone help me confirm whether the following is a bug worth reporting?

[17:34] <ldiamond> Can anyone tell me how to use a remote (Logitech Harmony) with my computer (with a ITE IR device: it87 I think)?
[17:34] <RB2> Afternoon all
[17:34] <Mean_Admin_> spucki: ok so ubuntu is slower on the internet than Winxp ? did you install it or are using livecd?
[17:34] <s0101> (Mean admin) I type it in and press find and i cant find <IP_ADDRESS>
[17:34] <miha> dou213: mysql connections means for example remote program can use mysql database, you dont need that. you want phpmyadmin which will have localhost connection to mysql. just open port 80 for web pages (and phpmyadmin)
[17:34] <Mean_Admin_> hello there RB2
[17:35] <dou213> Mean_Admin_, so what should i look for precisely pls?
[17:35] <RB2> hi Mean_Admin_
[17:35] <dou213> miha, port 80 is already opened, and i can't connect from extern on phpmyadmin
[17:35] <VioletsPie> ghone: thank you
[17:35] <zacktu> Apteno:  what do you mean?  the device?  i can play dvd's w/ win xp
[17:35] <Mean_Admin_> dou213: well, use google to search wikipedai pages for a list of default ports but before that, listen to what miha is telling you
[17:36] <balrog__> zash: thanks, i wasnt sure what th -c option actually meant.  the manpage just says "read MD5 sums from the FILEs and check them"
[17:36] <Hylsy> Hey what is command how i can see my computer info?
[17:36] <spucki> Mean_Admin I installed it, option: Install inside windows
[17:36] <unop> Hylsy, what kind of info?
[17:36] <dou213> miha, sry just tried it again in another way, it works! thx
[17:36] <miha> dou213: http://forum.webedition.de/phpBB/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=6581
[17:36] <Mean_Admin_> s0101: ok then it gets complicateed, did you open your firewall and allow connections to and from <IP_ADDRESS> and <IP_ADDRESS> on BOTH mahcines ?
[17:36] <miha> ok
[17:36] <RB2> Quick question, I've had problems with the nVidia restricted driver ever since I upgraded to 8.10. I've checked the forums, read up on the driver regression, etc. But, no luck so far. I was considering doing a fresh install. Does anyone know what the changes are that they will work afterwards?
[17:36] <Apteno> zacktu, look here : http://www.debuntu.org/how-to-play-dvd-under-ubuntu-linux
[17:36] <Hylsy> What video card i have and these.
[17:37] <dou213> thx miha, Mean_Admin_
[17:37] <RB2> *chances
[17:37] <Mean_Admin_> np
[17:37] <xevil> RB2: legacy driver?
[17:37] <s0101> no
[17:37] <mchelen> whats a good desktop backup program? home user backup/restore doesnt seem to work
[17:37] <zash> balrog__: if you do md5sum somefiles > md5sums, you can do md5sum -c md5sums to check if they differ
[17:37] <zacktu> Abento: thanks
[17:37] <unop> Hylsy,  lspci  and  sudo lshw
[17:37] <s0101> (Mean admin) I do that
[17:37] <Mean_Admin_> s0101: ok well you need to do that, tell the firewall to let connection happen between the two machines
[17:37] <Mean_Admin_> s0101: you did that or you will proceed to do it ?
[17:37] <ldiamond> Can anyone tell me how to use a remote (Logitech Harmony) with my computer (with a ITE IR device: it87 I think)?
[17:38] <RB2> xevil, I've tried 177 and that didn't help (if that's what you mean). This is a 8800GTS
[17:38] <s0101> (Mean admin) you meen  on the remote machine and my machine?
[17:38] <Mean_Admin_> ldiamond: you might want to try ##linux if you get no answer
[17:38] <zagabar> How do I connect to a wireless network?
[17:38] <Hylsy> Thanks unop!
[17:38] <balrog__> zash: but theres not way to do something like "md5sum FILE --check-against HASH123123123123123123123"?
[17:38] <Mean_Admin_> s0101: yeah, both machines must be allowed to communicate
[17:38] <zagabar> How can I see a list of available wireless networks?
[17:38] <ldiamond> Mean_Admin_, thx
[17:38] <Mean_Admin_> s0101: your firewall is ignoring any messages/requests/commands from almost everything (and that's how it should be)
[17:39] <RB2> Hmm, guess xevil didn't want to answer. ;)
[17:39] <zash> balrog__: echo HASH1234 file | md5sum -c -
[17:39] <LukaszJ> Anyone here is using any Hercules Webcam^

[17:39] <miha> zagabar: if you use gnome, try clicking on network manager icon in systray bottom right?
[17:39] <Mean_Admin_> spucki: well, I asked if you used livecd or installed ubuntu on the hdd :?
[17:39] <Trijntje> i'm trying to connect to a wireless network with nm-applet. Something goes wrong but i don't know what. Is there a command-line way to do this so that i get some output with what is wrong?
[17:39] <zagabar> miha: Yeah, but the "wireless networks" are gray?
[17:39] <zagabar> So I cant click it.
[17:39] <RenatoSilva> how to know the services currently running?
[17:40] <RenatoSilva> ps doesn't show services I guess
[17:40] <lstarnes> RenatoSilva: try ps aux
[17:40] <zash> balrog__: aha, you need to do echo "MD5HEX21234  filename" | md5sum -c -
[17:40] <helper> zagabar, type ifconfig to check if you are connected to any wireless/ AP...
[17:40] <WinterWeaver> how can I run a python script in the terminal so that it does not use lots of CPU power? like telling it to be 'nice', or only use 50% power or resources?
[17:40] <miha> zagabar: is your wireless detected by kernel?     dmesg | grep eth
[17:40] <thedark> hello everyone

[17:41] <keres> how do you check where a symlink leads?
[17:41] <miha> keres: ls -l symlink
[17:41] <Mean_Admin_> spucki: all right,em, you installed it using that .exe you download under windows and install it from there :S ?
[17:41] <RenatoSilva> why doesn't ps show daemons?
[17:41] <thedark> I went to Audio Manager and set Krecord In to Soundcard out , but still it doesn't record anything
[17:41] <jtaji> WinterWeaver: I woudl think nice -n N python script.py
[17:41] <miha> RenatoSilva: ps aux   ? (not just your processes)
[17:42] <thedark> I only get silence when I play it back
[17:42] <spucki> (Mean_Admin) correct
[17:42] <lstarnes> RenatoSilva: are you using "ps" or "ps aux" ?
[17:42] <WinterWeaver> thank jtaji, will give that a go :)
[17:42] <LukaszJ> Guys? anyone uses a Hercules Webcam?
[17:42] <lstarnes> keres: you could also use readlink
[17:42] <balrog__> zash: thanks.
[17:42] <spucki> (Mean_Admin) was that wrong ?
[17:42] <keres> thanks guys!
[17:42] <ortsvorsteher>  !anyone | LukaszJ
[17:42] <Mean_Admin_> spucki: I know that stirs some trouble :S sorry, I don't have enough experience whit that particular kind of installation; I really do encourage installing it from a CD, like a normal OS, and just dual-booting, it's much more conveniant
[17:42] <Pirate_Hunter> are there any DVD authoring application that allow the user to make breaks in the video which allows the function of fast forwarding per chapter like in nero (other than k3b)?
[17:43] <s3a> user___, wehen I bring my graph from spreadsheet to writer, it doesn't show
[17:43] <LukaszJ> ortsvorsteher: Sorry, How am i suppose to ask that, give me a hint please.
[17:43] <user___> s3a: how do you bring it to writer?
[17:43] <Mean_Admin_> spucki: it's not wrong, it's just I 've had some trouble myself and I don't find it's worth the trouble, compared to just burning the .iso and insalling it like a respectable OS
[17:43] <s3a> user___, copy paste
[17:43] <RenatoSilva> why doesn't Ubuntu have inetd?
[17:43] <ortsvorsteher> LukaszJ: just describe which problem you have. give details about what system you use.
[17:44] <RenatoSilva> What does it use instead?
[17:44] <agathe> xsxx
[17:44] <anna> hi everyone
[17:44] <zash> RenatoSilva: you can install inetd afaik
[17:44] <lstarnes> RenatoSilva: it does have inetd available as an optional package
