[02:44] <T4K> you know i have to ask... How do i get java installed.. First time running linux on my Dell xps m1210 here
[02:44] <jrib> !java > T4K (see the private message from ubotu)
[02:44] <aoirthoir> T4K, are you running ubuntu?
[02:44] <T4K> yea
[02:44] <spasticteapot> http://p.opsat.net/v/gydapa - this is the error/boot log from my messed up Xubuntu install.
[02:44] <T4K> !java
[02:44] <ubotu> To install a Java compiler/interpreter on Ubuntu, look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Java - For the Sun Java runtime install sun-java5-jre from the !Multiverse repository. Enable the backports repository on Edgy to install sun-java6-jre
[02:44] <spasticteapot> What do I do?
[02:45] <aoirthoir> T4K, sorry g. I dont use java as car as I know.
[02:45] <aoirthoir> !java
[02:45] <T4K> weather.gov uses java
[02:45] <T4K> so i need it
[02:45] <aoirthoir> hold on T4K
[02:45] <eka> hi all
[02:45] <Cristobal_20> Hi
[02:45] <BlueEagle> spasticteapot: How is the install messed up?
[02:46] <aoirthoir> T4K, here you go g: http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Ubuntu:Feisty#Java_.26_Non-Media_Browser_Plug-ins
[02:46] <eka> anybody with MSI PC60G working under ubuntu?
[02:46] <aoirthoir> T4K, i find that most of what I want to do is listed under that site.
[02:46] <Cristobal_20> Hey, i'm wondering if anyone can help me. I have sound but no wi fi in Ubuntu Edgy, and I have wifi but not sound in Feisty... Is there some workaround to this kind of problem?
[02:46] <GuHHH> where i find envy?
[02:47] <caner> i want yakuake "to s
[02:47] <shane634> Cristobal_20, which wi fi card do you use?
[02:47] <czer323> !envy
[02:47] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about envy - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[02:47] <smo> sudo update-alternatives --config java
[02:47] <`davo> yakuake is the most useful app ever
[02:47] <BlueEagle> spasticteapot: ie. what happens at boot?
[02:47] <smo> chosse good jvm
[02:47] <Slart> smo: nope.. can't get it to work...  That site totally rocks.
[02:48] <BlueEagle> Have you tried disabling boot splash so you can see what's going on? ie. where it hangs?
[02:48] <Cristobal_20> shane634: I'm sorry, not in Ubuntu right now, but I was wondering if I could use Feisty but with the sound drivers from Edgy?
[02:48] <aoirthoir> T4K, and they get right to the point. Be sure that if you want to install a certain thing you enable the reposotiroies. Personallyi ve got them set to just what came..minus the CDROM so it downloads.
[02:49] <shane634> Cristobal_20, i am not sure about that
[02:49] <T4K> alright
[02:49] <aoirthoir> Cristobal_20, did you instal fiesty fresh or did you upgrade?
[02:49] <Cristobal_20> fresh
[02:49] <Bill> Ok it works
[02:49] <caner> is it possible to start yakuake evertime i boot the OS
[02:49] <Cristobal_20> I think it's something with realtek HD sound cards
[02:49] <caner> davo
[02:50] <spasticteapot> BlueEagle: I just go ctrl-alt-F1.
[02:50] <Electricity_> !lamp > Electricity_
[02:50] <BlueEagle> ..and?
[02:51] <aoirthoir> Cristobal_20, sorry g. Not sure why it wouldnt work. lemme search.
[02:51] <spasticteapot> It says "looking for files needed to boot" and hangs for a few minutes.
[02:51] <Cristobal_20> Oh, don't worry for now, I'm in windows but will ask again when logged in Ubuntu. Thanks for the help!!
[02:51] <pplsuqbawlz> mmk, i've tried to rtfm ; but i still have no sound in "java" and "flash", can anyone help?
[02:51] <aoirthoir> Cristobal_20, see if this link might help? http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=423793
[02:52] <aoirthoir> Cristobal_20, dunno if that applies to you or not g.
[02:52] <Cristobal_20> aoirthoir: let's see
[02:52] <Electricity> Whats the command to install LAMP?
[02:52] <shane634> !lamp
[02:52] <ubotu> LAMP is an acronym for Linux-Apache-MySQL-PHP. However, the term is often used for setups using alternative but different software, such as Perl or Python instead of PHP, and Postgres instead of MySQL. For help with setting up LAMP on Ubuntu, see  https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ApacheMySQLPHP - See also the Server CD installation process (different in Edgy+)
[02:52] <aoirthoir> Electricity, go here: http://www.ubuntuguide.org
[02:52] <aoirthoir> Electricity, I will get you the exact commands
[02:52] <Electricity> aoirthoir: Thanks
[02:53] <aoirthoir> Electricity, http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Ubuntu:Feisty#How_to_install_MYSQL_Database_Server
[02:53] <dstaley> What would be the best way to share files between Windows and Ubuntu without a shared drive?
[02:53] <aoirthoir> Electricity, i follow MOST of those instructions
[02:53] <Electricity> aoirthoir: Whats the exact command?
[02:53] <t0lkman> hey people in mistake i have deleted /var/cache directory, now i cannot launch neither symaptyc nor apt-get ;[
[02:53] <aoirthoir> Electricity, but where it says to do this:mysqladmin -u root password your-new-password..mysqladmin -h root@local-machine-name -u root -p password your-new-password..sudo /etc/init.d/mysql restart...i dont do it
[02:54] <aoirthoir> I install phpmyadmin and then use it to log in and change my mysql password
[02:54] <pplsuqbawlz> I've read the manual, but still have no sound in java and flash; when I run a java application that uses sound, the process crashes altogether, any suggestions?
[02:54] <BlueEagle> t0lkman: Just restore it from the backup copy.
[02:54] <BlueEagle> t0lkman: You _DO_ make backups before you remove stuff as root don't you?
[02:54] <Electricity> What is the EXACT COMMAND for LAMP?
[02:54] <Cristobal_20> aoirthoir: Thanks for the link, I'm going to try that later :)
[02:54] <aoirthoir> Electricity, i meant i would get you to the exact section that refers to it..its not a single command
[02:54] <BlueEagle> electricity: There's not a single _exact_ command for installing a LAMP environment.
[02:55] <dstaley> I want to use my music on both Ubuntu and Windows, where should I put it, on Ubuntu or on Windows?
[02:55] <aoirthoir> Electricity, you have to start there and follow the commands..its one at a time and they are real easy
[02:55] <Electricity> aoirthoir: I installed it like that on Edgy, I'm sure of it...
[02:55] <aoirthoir> Electricity, ok. But those commands I pointed you to will do it. I know of no single command to do it
[02:55] <BlueEagle> electricity: You need to install and configure (VERY important to CONFIGURE) three big pieces of software (well four if the firewall counts as part of linux).
[02:56] <Electricity> BlueEagle: Huh?
[02:56] <BlueEagle> spasticteapot: Hmmm.. I'm sorry. I've got no experience with such a scenario. Try disabling bootsplash at boot (from grub boot menu)
[02:56] <aoirthoir> Electricity, BlueEagle is saying you have to install MYSQL, then APACHE, then PHP (and in my case phpmyadmin) and if you want firewall then that would make four (or in my case with phpmyadmin five)
[02:56] <spasticteapot> BlueEagle: Ctrl-Alt-F1 is pretty much the same thing.
[02:57] <aoirthoir> Electricity, just go to that link the steps are VERY easy
[02:57] <aoirthoir> you will be surprised how easy it is.
[02:57] <Electricity> I'm installed the packages in the URL from the !wine command
[02:57] <dino> May Allah be with you, my american friends
[02:58] <dstaley> God is with me, that's good enough :)
[02:58] <aoirthoir> dino, and with you.
[02:58] <BlueEagle> electricity: Ok, here's the thing. To run a lamp server you need a few things. Most importantly linux, apache, mysql and php. You need to install those pieces of software that you have not got. BUT that's not the only think. You also need to protect your installation which requires configuring the firewall to prevent intrusions, configuring MySQL to remove the default (none) password for db-root and setting up PHP to avoid security hole
[02:58] <aoirthoir> dstaley, allah means god..just the arabic for it.
[02:58] <dino> dstaley yes, Allah is God
[02:58] <BlueEagle> electricity: So there is no _single_ and _exact_ command to install LAMP. The link posted to ubuntuguide.com is quite comprehencive.
[02:58] <Electricity> BlueEagle: Why would I need security if I'm only using it for testing perposes?
[02:58] <aoirthoir> dino, welcome to #ubuntu g:)
[02:58] <BlueEagle> electricity: Is it connected to the internet?
[02:59] <dino> thanks
[02:59] <dino> acutally I'm just kidding, I'm brazilian, I don't believe in Allah
[02:59] <Flux-> hello everyone, im having problems installing java on Fiesty, i'm unable to get the java plugin package from the repository, but everything else works, i cannot get java working on firefox.
[02:59] <dstaley> aoirthoir, Allah is used to symbolize God of the Muslim religion. The Muslim religion follow the Koran, not the Bible
[02:59] <dino> I just think american people get scared with arabian people, is that truwe?
[02:59] <Electricity> BlueEagle: No, I'm using it at localhost
[02:59] <dstaley> Slightly
[02:59] <aoirthoir> Electricity, if you are running through a router (like one that is connected to a cable modem) you dont *have* to have a firewall
[02:59] <dstaley> though, now it's Asians
[02:59] <Derleth> dino: Not all of us. Only the morons.
[02:59] <teenbeat2007> i have a laptop without bootable usb port and i have a usb cd drive, how can i make this bootable so i can install ubuntu on this maptop, please advise
[02:59] <shane634> dino, not all of us no
[02:59] <Pelo> dino, stay on topic please
[03:00] <dino> And do you consider us, brazilians, monkeys in the jungle?
[03:00] <Electricity> I'm on Wireless net...And I only need http://localhost access to learn PGP
[03:00] <BlueEagle> electricity: So the machine it is running on is not connected to the internet?
[03:00] <Electricity> PHP*
[03:00] <Derleth> dino: No. We consider you beach bums ;)
[03:00] <dstaley> dino, no, not in any way
[03:00] <aoirthoir> dstaley, you are not identified so I cannot msg you. However I am not trying to talk religion.
[03:00] <dino> better :D
[03:00] <Electricity> BlueEagle: It is, it's on here...It's just for me to view pages in http://localhost
[03:00] <dino> I like soccer
[03:01] <aoirthoir> dstaley, however..allah is the arabic word for god that all religions there use..it is not just the god of the muslims. its generic as our word god is generic.
[03:01] <jrib> !offtopic | dino and others
[03:01] <ubotu> dino and others: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome!
[03:01] <aoirthoir> and if you want to talk further about it you can pm me after you have identified.
[03:01] <dino> I even don't know what the hell is unbutu?
[03:01] <pplsuqbawlz> uh
[03:01] <jrib> !ubuntu > dino (see the private message from ubotu)
[03:01] <pplsuqbawlz> the "sound preferences" window doesnt have the tabs
[03:01] <dstaley> aoirthoir, I'm not trying to either, but, if you'd like to continue, please tell me and I'll register.
[03:01] <pplsuqbawlz> taht the manual says it does
[03:01] <pplsuqbawlz> anyone know why?
[03:01] <Pelo> dino, then waht the devil are you doing here ?
[03:01] <BlueEagle> electricity: Well if the wireless router is running upnp in full mode it may or may not open a connection trough when it detects a mysql server request if you've got only one machine on the wireless network. Depends on the hardware in question. So I would really recomend that you either install a firewall or at the very very least configure your mysql only to listen to <IP_ADDRESS>
[03:02] <Flux-> hello everyone, im having problems installing java on Fiesty, i'm unable to get the java plugin package from the repository, but everything else works, i cannot get java working on firefox.
[03:02] <dino> I've never used linux
[03:02] <aoirthoir> dstaley, sure I love talking with you g. register then msg me.
[03:02] <dino> Pelo that's the biggets channel
[03:02] <BlueEagle> electricity: Either way I do _not_ recomend using the default configuration (unless it's no longer "listen on all interfaces")
[03:02] <Electricity> BlueEagle: I've done it before just fine...
[03:02] <dino> what channel may I talk about any thing?
[03:02] <shane634> !register
[03:02] <Electricity> It's safe...I've done it before...
[03:02] <ubotu> Information about registering your Freenode nick is at http://freenode.net/faq.shtml#contents-userregistration
[03:02] <BlueEagle> electricity: That's what the guy who lost russian roulette also said. :)
[03:02] <aoirthoir> BlueEagle, it is set to only listen to <IP_ADDRESS> from the rip g.
[03:02] <Pelo> dino,  try one on dal.net
[03:03] <aoirthoir> BlueEagle, so if he does not comment out the section in my.cnf he will be fine:)
[03:03] <mrwilloby> Anyone have advice on completely moving an existing Ubuntu partition and keeping it usable?
[03:03] <BlueEagle> aoirthoir: Ahh, ok.
[03:03] <kuma> hi, i'm trying to run an application throug command line, but i get a "libxml" error, the problem is that there's tons of libraries called libxml, how can i know wich one is missing so i can run my app?
[03:03] <MrKeuner> hi, gnumeric in my feisty does not read MS excel files
[03:03] <MrKeuner> what can I do?
[03:03] <t0lkman> i had reboot
[03:03] <aoirthoir>  BlueEagle the Ubuntu setup with apache, mysql and php is actually reasonably secure.
[03:03] <kuma> heres the error:
[03:03] <kuma> ./ags-setup: error while loading shared libraries: libxml.so.1: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
[03:03] <t0lkman> copy paste me your answer please
[03:03] <t0lkman> about /var/cache
[03:03] <Pelo> mrwilloby,  just make a new partiton for /home , copy everything over and reinstall ubuntu to a speical / partiton
[03:04] <aoirthoir> BlueEagle, and on top of it..like in my case..I am running through a router..so I dont have to worry about outside access
[03:04] <jrib> kuma: I am guessing libxml1
[03:04] <mrwilloby> Pelo: really? /home has everything I need in it?
[03:04] <jrib> !clonging > mrwilloby (see the private message from ubotu)
[03:04] <MrKeuner> OK I had to activate the ms excel plugin
[03:04] <jrib> mrwilloby: you might want to do that too
[03:04] <MrKeuner> thanks anyways
[03:04] <BlueEagle> aoirthoir: Well I've got an "intelligent" router that tries to find a destination for all packets so it probes the local net automagically and routes the packages. Probably inspired by M$ and trying to be helpful...
[03:04] <kraypius> How can I get something like the windows extended dektop working in ubuntu?? In windows, when i move my mouse off the left side of my screen, it goes onto my TV.. In ubuntu currently, the TV displays what my monitor displays.
[03:05] <kuma> jrib, i think i just installed
[03:05] <mrwilloby> Pelo: would this be a way to possibly upgrade to Feisty from Edgy also?
[03:05] <Pelo> mrwilloby,  /home has all your personnal data and settings,   everything esle is os and prog so if you cpy over your home part, you'll only need to reinstall the os and the extra progs you added
[03:05] <kuma> jrib, it
[03:05] <jrib> kuma: apt-cache policy libxml1
[03:05] <BlueEagle> kraypius: nVidia card?
[03:05] <mrwilloby> Pelo: thanks
[03:05] <BlueEagle> !twinview
[03:05] <ubotu> xinerama is an extension to !X to use two or more physical displays as one large virtual display. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/XineramaHowTo - See also !DualHead
[03:05] <Pelo> mrwilloby, you don'T need to upgrade that way , you can just install the new os
[03:05] <kuma> jrib i ran this  apt-get install libxml++1.0-dev
[03:05] <kraypius> blue, ati
[03:05] <jrib> kuma: right, that's not what I suggested
[03:06] <jrib> kuma: are you on feisty?
[03:06] <BlueEagle> !dualhead | kraypius
[03:06] <ubotu> kraypius: Information about dual-head on linux can be found on http://wiki.linuxquestions.org/wiki/DualHead - See also !Xinerama
[03:06] <Pelo> mrwilloby,  make sure you copy the hidden folders and files
[03:06] <kuma> jrib: ok, running what you suggested xD
[03:06] <mrwilloby> Pelo: got it
[03:06] <kuma> jrib: nope, 6.06

[03:07] <|Jason8|> aoirthoir, where all the packages go when you do an apt-get
[03:07] <aoirthoir> Dark_Knight209, though they are merging back to each other and the name left will be compiz.
[03:07] <jrib> !effects > Dark_Knight209 (see the private message from ubotu)
[03:08] <aoirthoir> |Jason8|, you mean the downloads?
[03:08] <aoirthoir> |Jason8|, because the actual install itself is different for various packages.
[03:08] <jugo> Question: I use gnome. I installed the kubuntu-desktop package and then found out that I don't like KDE so i removed it. My first loading screen is still kubuntu, how do I change it back?
[03:08] <Dark_Knight209> tyvm
[03:08] <|Jason8|> aoirthoir, yeah.
[03:08] <BlueEagle> t0lkman: Well now you know why you should. :) I haven't seen a packaged copy of the default /var/cache so you may be stuck with a re-install. You could try booting off the live cd and see if that's got a /var/cache and copy it over. It's a long shot but it might work.
[03:09] <shane634> jugo, when you get to the login screen switch sessions back to gnome
[03:09] <flatfilm> can anyone link me to a decent xorg.conf howto?
[03:09] <aoirthoir> |Jason8|, ok I think we need to do a search for .deb
[03:09] <jugo> The loading screen before the login screen.
[03:09] <aoirthoir> gimme a second
[03:09] <Pelo> flatfilm,  what do you need to know ?
[03:09] <GuHHH> envy is only for ubuntu?
[03:09] <shane634> jugo, where you put in your username and password
[03:09] <jugo> Not the splash screen, I don't know what the screen is called before the login screen.
[03:10] <shane634> jugo, bottom left is options i think.. then sessions
[03:10] <jugo> The simple screen that says ubuntu, as it loads drivers and mounts things.
[03:10] <jugo> Nothing to do with sessions.
[03:10] <shane634> jugo yes
[03:10] <flatfilm> Pelo: when i change to a different tty using control-alt f1-6, my screen is shifted to the side a bit
[03:10] <t0lkman> BlueEagle,  may be can i downlad some packet?
[03:10] <jugo> This is before the login screen even comes up
[03:10] <t0lkman> from internet..
[03:10] <spinull> is there a way to make mplayer buffer a video to some extent before playing it
[03:10] <spinull> cause thatd sure help
[03:10] <BlueEagle> t0lkman: As I said "I haven't seen a packaged copy of the default /var/cache"
[03:10] <shane634> jugo, ok that is the splash screen.. not sure how to change it though
[03:11] <Pelo> flatfilm, I'm not sure you can correct that in xorg.conf
[03:11] <aoirthoir> |Jason8|, ok I found it it is in /var/cache/apt/archives
[03:11] <BlueEagle> !bootsplash
[03:11] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about bootsplash - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[03:11] <jugo> lol
[03:11] <BlueEagle> !splash
[03:11] <jugo> its not the splash screen
[03:11] <ubotu> To change the Gnome splash screen, use !gnome-splashscreen-manager or change the GConf key /apps/gnome-session/options/splash_image using !gconf-editor.
[03:11] <aoirthoir> |Jason8|, hope that helps g.
[03:11] <t0lkman> may be anyone here can send me?
[03:11] <spinull> anyone?
[03:11] <|Jason8|> aoirthoir, thanks!
[03:11] <BlueEagle> jugo: If it's what comes after the grub selector and before the login screen then it's the bootsplash screen.
[03:11] <flatfilm> Pelo: I think i can because i ripped out a few of the lower end resolutions to get gdm working properly
[03:11] <aoirthoir> |Jason8|, yw g. Holler.

[03:12] <Bones> Yes

[03:41] <agentnewb> coolgeek: what is psk encryption?
[03:41] <mobutu> and I have to kill my xsession to get back to old one

[03:58] <|Jason8|> wason, what will you be using your computer for?
[03:58] <PF|WSTP> !grub
[03:58] <ubotu> grub is the default Ubuntu boot manager. Lost grub after installing windows: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows - Making GRUB floppies & other GRUB howtos: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto
[03:58] <|Jason8|> just surfing the 'net and IRC?
[03:58] <t0lkman> now the next question, what i need to install for speesteep (prescott) support?
[03:58] <dimeotane> anyone else find that google images won't show thumbnails properly in feisty?
[03:58] <crak> it was something simple like export Xterm = something
[03:58] <shane634> Rio79, look here http://ubuntuforums.org/search.php?searchid=19004057
[03:58] <screechingcat> absolutely no one here who can help ?
[03:58] <agentnewb> screechingcat: help with what?
[03:58] <agentnewb> dimeotane: nope not me
[03:59] <screechingcat> *bump* *bump* i am not able to get the feisty livecd to run. i cant get a gui. when i try to reconfigure x.org, my graphics card is not detected. only the intel integrated graphics is detected
[03:59] <Rio79> hrmm... okay thx shane634
[03:59] <wason> Xenguy: just a normal desktop, for WP, SS, emailing, websurfing,...standard stuff.
[03:59] <jl> well i reinstall mysql server but i get the same error sudo post-install script error
[03:59] <PhilH> wason, then Ubuntu is probably more suitable than debian
[03:59] <agentnewb> dimeotane: try clicking the image to enlarge
[03:59] <PF|WSTP> How do I delete old kernels from the GRUB loader?
[03:59] <Xenguy> wason: ubuntu is quite capable...
[03:59] <wason> PhilH: but why?
[03:59] <lingga> sn0w, i'm using ati 200m in my laptop
[03:59] <vox754> PF|WSTP, you don't need to "delete" the kernels, but you may remove their entries from "/boot/grub/menu.lst", just comment the appropriate lines by placing hash marks # before the line
[03:59] <dimeotane> agentnewb: it shows a 'broken' image icon
[03:59] <PhilH> wason: if it's for anything mission critical though i'd suggest that you try debian first
[03:59] <PhilH> wasson, why not?
[03:59] <nada> rmove them
[03:59] <PF|WSTP> vox754, thanks
[03:59] <screechingcat> agentnewb: i am not able to get the feisty livecd to run. i cant get a gui. when i try to reconfigure x.org, my graphics card is not detected. only the intel integrated graphics is detected
[04:00] <Xenguy> wason: but doesn't seem so smooth with dist-upgrades AFAICT
[04:00] <agentnewb> PF|WSTP: use synaptic to search for old kernel versions then remove anything related to them
[04:00] <preston> shane634 starting the live cd in safe graphics mode seems to have done the trick, why?
[04:00] <agentnewb> screechingcat: press f4 for vga mode
[04:00] <Xenguy> wason: yes, if it is mission-critical, err on the side of caution ;-)
[04:00] <sn0w> lingga have you installed the proprietary drivers via the restricted devices manager?
[04:00] <MrFeetio> feisty seems to hang on "starting network interfaces" for about 45 seconds, im using a intel 3945
[04:00] <shane634> preston, i wish i could tell ya mate.. i can't sometimes the way of things lol
[04:00] <PhilH> Xenguy: he's gone
[04:00] <crak> UTF-8 + mc + aterm, Eterm,
[04:00] <Xenguy> PhilH: tx
[04:00] <sn0w> lingga run "fglrxinfo" to make sure, it should show your ati info
[04:01] <agentnewb> screechingcat: you can use esc once installed to go recovery mode with xubuntu and either set grub to start with vga mode or install a graphics card driver
[04:01] <jl> there is a way to completly uninstall mysql server?
[04:01] <shane634> preston, glad it is working though lol
[04:01] <Electricity> Just so I'm clear, if I partition my disk, I can reinstall Windows, right?
[04:01] <PhilH> jl, apt-get ?
[04:01] <screechingcat> agentnewb: how do i get to the gui on the live cd ? installing is far away right now
[04:01] <aoirthoir> Electricity, is windows installed right now?
[04:01] <preston> shane634 what about the nvidia drivers after the installl?
[04:01] <Electricity> No
[04:01] <crak> Electricity, if you don't know what partitions you got you need to do a df -ha as root and figure it out FIRST
[04:01] <shane634> PhilH, he can't purge it or so it seems
[04:02] <PhilH> Electricity: is windows the only thing you want installed?
[04:02] <jl> i just tried --purge remove, reinstalll inad everytime a want to install mysql server again i get the post-install error script
[04:02] <shane634> preston, i use Envy some will say it is bad.. i haven't had an issue
[04:02] <lingga> sn0w, yes.. i'm already install fglrx properly running..
[04:02] <agentnewb> screechingcat: you press f4 on the live cd boot screen and choose vga resolution you prefer then press enter
[04:02] <aoirthoir> Electricity, assuming you have the discs you can install windows
[04:02] <sn0w> lingga run sudo apt-get install xserver-xgl
[04:02] <crak> Electricity, once you fdisk it your partition is DONE
[04:02] <Electricity> aoirthoir: I do. Dang you Vista..
[04:02] <agentnewb> screechingcat: that way it won't use the video card and will take more processing until you  install it and get a driver
[04:02] <sn0w> let me know when ur done
[04:02] <aoirthoir> Electricity, however your best bet is to create a couple partitions..install windows first ..then install ubuntu
[04:02] <Electricity> crak: Huh?
[04:03] <defjux> how do i restart my shell in ubuntu like alt-ctrl-delete or something?
[04:03] <Electricity> aoirthoir: I tried. Wouldn't let me partition my disk right.
[04:03] <jl> PhilH: i tried with apt-get but with no success
[04:03] <aoirthoir> Electricity, the reason is that if you install ubuntu first and then windows...windows will overwrite your Grub and you cant boot
[04:03] <Music_Shuffle> defjux: alt-f2
[04:03] <screechingcat> agentnewb: right. will try that. thanks
[04:03] <lingga> sn0w, okey.. i'm running on it
[04:03] <PhilH> defjux: your shell?
[04:03] <defjux> thanks Music_Shuffle
[04:03] <defjux> well i mean gnome
[04:03] <crak> UTF-8 + mc + aterm, Eterm,
[04:03] <Electricity> aoirthoir: Why?
[04:03] <aoirthoir> Electricity, use the ubuntu partioner to do the partitino..then isntall windows:)
[04:03] <PhilH> defjux: ctrl alt baackspare
[04:03] <meta4ical> Hi all, I had 2 questions because I'm in the process of installing Ubuntu and having some trouble
[04:03] <PhilH> gah
[04:03] <Electricity> Whats the Ubuntu partitioner?
[04:03] <Music_Shuffle> defjux: then its what PhilH said. Lol
[04:03] <agentnewb> screechingcat: remember press esc at grub message once you install it to HD and choose moderecovery
[04:03] <aoirthoir> Electricity, because if vista overwrites your grub..you cant boot into linux
[04:03] <defjux> PhilH: that worked before but for some reason it stopped working
[04:04] <Music_Shuffle> meta
[04:04] <aoirthoir> Electricity, do you live in cleveland ohio perchance?
[04:04] <Music_Shuffle> meta4ical: like...what?
[04:04] <Electricity> aoirthoir: So using Ubuntu partitioner will avoid that? And no, I don't/
[04:04] <PhilH> defjux, when did it stop working?#
[04:04] <meta4ical> Music_Shuffle: The first issue is, for whatever reason (probably video card issues) Ubuntu chops off the bottom half of the installer
[04:04] <lingga> sn0w, now my xserver-xgl installed, what next..
[04:04] <crak> peace I will figure it out eventually. Just the google is filled with crap .bashrc
[04:05] <Electricity> LOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOL...:O
[04:05] <meta4ical> which includes the buttons like "next, back" etc and the only workaround I have found is to disable the bottom menu
[04:05] <defjux> PhilH: about a month ago. i thought upgrading to feisty might fix it but i tested it the other day and it did nothing.
[04:05] <meta4ical> and set the top one to the left
[04:05] <sn0w> lingga pm me so i can paste a bunch of stuff to u
[04:05] <Electricity> nce GParted can be a weapon of mass destruction only root may run it. ,----- LOL
[04:05] <aoirthoir> Electricity, I asked you if you live in cleveland becuase it would be difficult for me to tell you how to use the ubuntu partitioner:)
[04:05] <sn0w> lingga pm i dont want to fill up this area
[04:05] <WaxyFresh> has myspace/google/yahoo been working REALLY REALLY slow?every other site works fine yet these dont

[04:06] <tommyv> i have an iso of a WINXP install cd on my hard drive (i'm running feisty atm). is there a way i can virtually mount the ISO and then install windows xp that way (i want to install it on my second partition, not run it virtually.)
[04:06] <aoirthoir> brb have to vacuum
[04:07] <WaxyFresh> has myspace/google/yahoo been working REALLY REALLY slow?every other site works fine yet these dont?
[04:07] <meta4ical> I've fiddled with a bunch of livecds in the past, including I believe ubuntu 6.10? and the display issue didn't happen ; p
[04:07] <Music_Shuffle> meta4ical: purely stock CPU/RAM/vid timings?
[04:07] <lingga> sn0w, I'm already in pm
[04:07] <aoirthoir> WaxyFresh, myspace seems to not like Gnu/Firefox for some reason
[04:07] <sn0w> Shadow_X you have to tell me how you did  that
[04:07] <Pelo> !offtopic | WaxyFresh
[04:07] <ubotu> WaxyFresh: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome!
[04:07] <aoirthoir> WaxyFresh,  dunno about the others
[04:07] <meta4ical> Music_Shuffle: I'm assuming you mean no modifications to any of the following? than yes :P
[04:07] <sn0w> Shadow_X i'v been trying to get cs2 working, with no luck
[04:08] <Shadow_X> Im gonna make an attempt at getting it to work
[04:08] <Shadow_X> I found a howto tho
[04:08] <meta4ical> Music_Shuffle: They ARE stock lol
[04:08] <aoirthoir> WaxyFresh, there are some things you can do in ubuntu to speed things up though..but Ive not time to show you just now.
[04:08] <Music_Shuffle> meta4ical: right.  Odd, tried the non-GUI install?  Mine did that when I pushed the RAM a little too far on my system :P
[04:08] <sn0w> lingga really? im not seeing it for some reason
[04:08] <Shadow_X> http://blog.publicidadpixelada.com/how-to-adobe-photoshop-cs2-on-ubuntu-10-steps/
[04:08] <PhilH> tommyv: only if you're going to install inside a VM, otherwise no
[04:08] <Electricity_> aoirthoir: How so? Would it work using gparted? <--- Sorry, I pinged.
[04:08] <Pelo> !intall > mboman
[04:08] <aoirthoir> Pelo, actually thats not an offtopic subject since its a Gnu issue...:)
[04:08] <meta4ical> Music_Shuffle: Um no actually I didn't, I tried the safe graphics install or whatever but had the same problem
[04:08] <aoirthoir> Electricity_, yes it would
[04:08] <Pelo> aoirthoir, ok
[04:08] <shirish> Pelo: why did u tell me gksu ? I usually use sudo
[04:08] <aoirthoir> Electricity, you can probably do it with gparted if you know how to use it...but using gparted can scrap your entire drive..and actually thats what you would be doing anyhow
[04:08] <arctanx> I have a question... why do we all speak in British accents when we're from outer space and there is no Britain?
[04:08] <Shadow_X> hey sn0w
[04:08] <mboman> !install
[04:08] <ubotu> Ubuntu can be installed in lots of ways. Please see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation for documentation. Problems during install? See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/CommonProblemsInstall and https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DapperReleaseNotes/UbiquityKnownIssues - See also !automate
[04:08] <HYPOCRISY> hi
[04:08] <WaxyFresh> aoirthoir, do you have a link?or some search terms?
[04:08] <iNToIT> Hello
[04:08] <sn0w> lingga go here http://wiki.beryl-project.org/wiki/Install_Beryl_on_Ubuntu_Feisty_with_XGL#Graphic_Card_Drivers_and_3D_Video_Acceleration
[04:08] <slestak> what determines the drive assignments when initrd is made? I move a drive from hdc to hdd, and on every boot, it pauses to check for hdc, and when intird is created for new kernels, it always puts root=/dev/hdc1 in grub.  I have changed fstab, must be somewhere ales
[04:09] <HYPOCRISY> tell me
[04:09] <sn0w> i know it says beryl dont worry about that
[04:09] <shirish> Pelo: what's the difference between gksu & sudo?
[04:09] <iNToIT> good
[04:09] <Shadow_X> we need to have Windows running with PS installed and working
[04:09] <nickzxcv> is it possible to install edubuntu from pxe?
[04:09] <Pelo> shirish,  gksu to launch  gui apps,  sudo for cli
[04:09] <Electricity> aoirthoir: So if I resize my currect partition, then make a new one, and installed Windows on it...Ubuntu should still boot?
[04:09] <aoirthoir> WaxyFresh, no..sorry. I will hunt but I have to go vacuum:)
[04:09] <PhilH> Shadow_X: Proprietary software running on a Free OS, a victory for someone, i'm sure
[04:09] <Music_Shuffle> meta4ical: is there any other install you can go to that's...LESS gui? Lol
[04:09] <Shadow_X> lol
[04:09] <Shadow_X> me!
[04:09] <Shadow_X> Im a photoshop user
[04:09] <Shadow_X> full blooded
[04:09] <Music_Shuffle> PhilH: lol
[04:09] <sn0w> lingga go down to the xgl part,  Adding an Xgl login session
[04:09] <tommyv> PhilH, thanks. do you know if there is any other way i can install it? all i have is the ISO
[04:09] <aoirthoir> Electricity, no. If you install windows after ubuntu, windows will over write the master boot record ..which means it will destroy grub
[04:09] <Shadow_X> and to see that I can FINALLY run it on my own OS. its a dream come true! lol
[04:09] <PhilH> Shadow_X: yeah, don't say that too loudly, someone might hear you
[04:09] <aoirthoir> Electricity, there are tricks you can do but I dont know them...
[04:09] <arctanx> No actually, I've just compiled the gtk tutorial hello world app and when I try to run the executable (over X11 forwarding) I get permission denied, even though it's 0777. Could anyone tell me what else might give me a permission denied error?
[04:09] <sn0w> lingga once your in your xgl session, run glxgears, if you see gears ur good, try ur desktop effects then
[04:09] <aoirthoir> but I have to go right now...brb
[04:09] <shirish> ok thank u guys :p
[04:09] <meta4ical> Music_Shuffle: I don't recall reading about a text based install? And even if I followed one wouldn't I have the display issues after the install as well?
[04:09] <Shadow_X> ugh, sadly, that means I have to reinstall windows (what else is new)
[04:09] <sn0w> Shadow_X hey how did u get it working? wine?
[04:10] <Shadow_X> yea, it'll require wine
[04:10] <zeroday> Shadow_X: have youtried crossove office
[04:10] <meta4ical> I'm presuming it's using some sort of stock default driver in the first place
[04:10] <Pelo> Shadow_X,  have a look at gimp running enhanced with gimpshop you might like it
[04:10] <Shadow_X> I dont have a serial for it
[04:10] <Shadow_X> ewww
[04:10] <Shadow_X> I HATE gimp
[04:10] <Shadow_X> lol
[04:10] <JROCK2004> On my flash drive I created 2 partitions. How do I mount the partitions?
[04:10] <Shadow_X> sorry
[04:10] <Music_Shuffle> meta4ical: possibly, you might be forced to find some sort of driver fix for it, yeah.
[04:10] <PhilH> urgh, GIMPShop is an abomination
[04:10] <ryanakca> How do you have a LAMP install with the feisty server CD? All I see is 'Install to Hard Drive'
[04:10] <zeroday> !enter | Shadow_X
[04:10] <Pelo> Shadow_X,  gimpshop makes it a bit more  photoshop like
[04:10] <ubotu> Shadow_X: Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation!
[04:10] <Electricity> aoirthoir: WHY? :'( Are you 100% sure it will?
[04:10] <lingga> sn0w, ok let try.. :)
[04:10] <Shadow_X> I just dont like Gimp at all
[04:10] <PhilH> I'm a GIMP user, none of that nasty MDI stuff here
[04:10] <nickzxcv> supposedly I need the alternate cd image for the pxe boot files, but there doesn't seem to be one for edubunut
[04:11] <WaxyFresh> Shadow_X, gimps awsome!it can do everything PS can you just have to get used to it
[04:11] <PhilH> WaxyFresh: that's not exactly true
[04:11] <WaxyFresh> !virus
[04:11] <ubotu> A/V software is available, however read this to understand why Linux does not have a virus problem: http://librenix.com/?inode=21
[04:11] <Shadow_X> actually, no it cant
[04:11] <JROCK2004> On my flash drive I created 2 partitions. How do I mount the partitions?
[04:11] <agentnewb> Shadow_X: I agree gimp pwnz but if you want something else then try wine to install it
[04:11] <spasticteapot> WaxyFresh: It's 90% as good. 0% of the cost.
[04:11] <Shadow_X> its not as powerful as Photoshop, I dont care who told you that
[04:11] <vashypooh> how do i remove something that my ubuntu install is trying to access? I install imwheel then removed it but its still trying to load the cfg and i cant load unless i use failsafe
[04:11] <WaxyFresh> PhilH, what cant it do?
[04:11] <meta4ical> Music_Shuffle: I'll track a driver down then : P, could you perhaps help me with a partitioning question?
[04:11] <Electricity> aoirthoir: WHY? :'( Are you 100% sure it will?
[04:11] <Shadow_X> Photoshop has dominated for AGES
[04:11] <PhilH> WaxyFresh: I'm the biggest proponent of GIMP around but that kind of comment isn't helpful
[04:11] <agentnewb> Shadow_X: what distro you using?
[04:11] <Shadow_X> ubuntu
[04:12] <Shadow_X> fiesty
[04:12] <Pelo> vashypooh,  depends on how you installed it
[04:12] <vashypooh> i just used apt-get
[04:12] <Music_Shuffle> meta4ical: I can try? :D
[04:12] <nemik> so does anyone know about toshiba laptops? its ac97 sounds card does not even appear in lspci or dmesg. what is wrong?
[04:12] <zeroday> Shadow_X: try crossover office it runs photoshop well
[04:12] <Pelo> vashypooh,   sudo apt-get remove package
[04:12] <vashypooh> When i try to load gnome it says it cant load /etc/X11/imwheel/imwheel.rc
[04:12] <vashypooh> i did
[04:12] <vashypooh> it still has it referenced
[04:12] <Shadow_X> it wont even install CS2
[04:12] <PhilH> Shadow_X: it does help if you understand how to use it though, if you haven't made the effort to learn gimp then i guess you could feel quite lost and powerless, it's certainly capable of what 90% of Photo$hoppers would need it for
[04:12] <techjim> hello room.  anyone in here get vmware workstation 5 working on fawn? mine stopped working after I upgraded.
[04:12] <crimsun> nemik: which precise toshiba model?
[04:12] <Music_Shuffle> Removing packages, I thought aptitude was a better idea, no?
[04:12] <Shadow_X> 90% doesnt cut it with me
[04:13] <vashypooh> im looking for where i edit it wanting to load that scrept
[04:13] <Shadow_X> I want all or nothing
[04:13] <usser> techjim: i have it working
[04:13] <PhilH> WaxyFresh: do you do much graphics stuff?
[04:13] <nemik> crimsun: a tecra 9100
[04:13] <zeroday> nemik: toshiba laptops have sound issues go to ubuntuforums.org to thre is a fix there
[04:13] <usser> techjim: 5.5 to be precise
[04:13] <PhilH> Shadow_X: even if you don't use it?
[04:13] <Raiders32> techjim:  I think workstation is only certified for dapper
[04:13] <vashypooh> I have a toshiba, and i just fixed my sound issue earlier, its an easy fix
[04:13] <WaxyFresh> PhilH, nope,but what cant gimp do that PS can?
[04:13] <Shadow_X> besides, most companies want someone who uses the market leader, not the wannabe
[04:13] <ryanakca> How do you have a LAMP install with the feisty server CD? All I see is 'Install to Hard Drive'
[04:13] <Pelo> vashypooh,  look in /etc/init.d/ or th other init folders for somerthing called imwheel or similar
[04:13] <techjim> usser: how'd you get it working?
[04:13] <nemik> zeroday: i read all i could
[04:13] <meta4ical> Music_Shuffle: lol, well I chose to let Ubuntu partition the drive and apparently it resized the partition I had for windows to make more room for it's own partition?
[04:13] <nemik> vashypooh: what did you have to do?
[04:13] <Shadow_X> sorry, but until GIMP is accepted as the standard in graphics design software, it will never hold up to me
[04:13] <vox754> Pelo, what do you suggest for CAD and SVG?
[04:14] <zeroday> nemik: still donst work
[04:14] <usser> techjim: did you try vmware-any-to-any update?
[04:14] <PhilH> WaxyFresh: and you can't learn both? a bit slow?
[04:14] <PhilH> WaxyFresh: sorry, that was directed at Shadow_X
[04:14] <meta4ical> Music_Shuffle: I'm wondering exactly how much space Ubuntu will need for the average user, because I went from a 60gb partition to a 34gb
[04:14] <vashypooh> Nemik let me attempt to find the link
[04:14] <jl> guys i still can't reinstall mysql server everytime i try i get this error message /var/lib/dpkg/info/mysql-server-5.0.postinst
[04:14] <nemik> thanks vashypooh
[04:14] <vashypooh> All it was was editing a file and adding a line
[04:14] <Pelo> vox754,   svg inkscape seems to be decent ,  but  I haven'T found a CAD app that lived up to Acad
[04:14] <shane634> Shadow_X, that will be awhile as windows owns the market by brutal foce
[04:14] <agentnewb> Shadow_X: follow instructions here for ubuntu: http://wiki.winehq.org/Recommended_Packages Then download this: http://ibiblio.org/pub/linux/system/emulators/wine/wine-0.9.36.tar.bz2 Then do this to install photoshop: http://appdb.winehq.org/appview.php?iAppId=17
[04:14] <Shadow_X> yes PhilH, I do alot of graphics
[04:14] <techjim> usser: don't think so.. how's that work?
[04:14] <shane634> force*
[04:14] <nemik> zeroday: i tried all the fixes but maybe something up with BIOS because i don't even see any ac97 device in lspci or dmesg
[04:14] <nemik> that worries me
[04:14] <PhilH> WaxyFresh: colourmanagement is less well developed as is hi bit depth stuff
[04:15] <sgtmattbaker>  I did the 1-2-3 beryl installation method in the feisty wiki and now when I log in it just goes to a white background and I cannot do anything.  I have done sudo dkpg-reconfigure xserver-xorg and done sudo apt-get autoremove beryl emerald-themes and still nothing.
[04:15] <usser> techjim: well rumor has it =) vmware needs to be updated in order to work with newer kernels
[04:15] <vashypooh> nemik, try this
[04:15] <Music_Shuffle> meta4ical: mm...with a 60 gig drive total?
[04:15] <nemik> zeroday: I checked the BIOS though and nothing there for soun
[04:15] <agentnewb> Shadow_X: its alright I know how right brain people can be picky about their gui layout, I had a gf same way couldn't stand certain desktop themes I don't know you guys like color sensitive or something
[04:15] <usser> techjim: so what u do is install vmware as usual
[04:15] <Shadow_X> nope, Im just a GRAPHICS ARTIST
[04:15] <hoth676> JROCK2004: type 'man mount'  at a terminal. If you managed to create partitions on it (using fdisk?), means kernel sees your flash drive, so it should be no problem. You'll need a special device, I'd guess (/dev/...) Also edit /etc/fstab according to the values you use to mount it manually. Hope this helps...
[04:15] <techjim> usser: just reinstall? can ya link me a nice guide?
[04:15] <Music_Shuffle> meta4ical: you should be able to get by with not much, if you avoid installing a whole lot of stuff.
[04:15] <usser> techjim: and then before invoking vmware-config.pl u have to install a patch
[04:15] <mmdski> i'm having acpi trouble!!!
[04:15] <PhilH> Shadow_X: and you're better than Jimmac?
[04:16] <Shadow_X> and as such, I am GRAPHICALLY ORIENTED. that means I want something that is GOOD with GRAPHICS.
[04:16] <agentnewb> Shadow_X: I can't send pms
[04:16] <usser> techjim: hm there is nothing in it really
[04:16] <vashypooh> Nemik: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/HdaIntelSoundHowto
[04:16] <shane634> Shadow_X, and as a GRAPHICS ARTIST you have been trained in PS is all
[04:16] <Shadow_X> sorry, but the gimp just DOESNT cut it for me
[04:16] <wraz79> can anybody help me change the HZ in the kernal to 1000?
[04:16] <agentnewb> Shadow_X: no you just want gimp with a photoshop gtk theme
[04:16] <usser> techjim: just install vmware as usual
[04:16] <wraz79> how hard is it to do?
[04:16] <vashypooh> nemik, or try typeing this in console
[04:16] <Shadow_X> no, I want photoshop
[04:16] <jl> i tried remove, reinstall, --purge and nothibg works i guess there are still mysql server files in my system but i don't know where they are and how i can remove them
[04:16] <Electricity> If I install Windows after Ubuntu, will it kill Grub? ,--- I PINGED AGAIN./
[04:16] <Music_Shuffle> .!nobodywantstoreadthismindlessGimpvsPSargument.
[04:16] <PhilH> Shadow_X: i guess it could just be that you don't cut it in the world of FOSS
[04:16] <meta4ical> Music_Shuffle: it's an 80gb
[04:16] <mmdski> it doesn't seem like i can get it started again
[04:16] <Shadow_X> just because it looks nice, doesnt mean it works
[04:16] <vashypooh> nemik, kill $(lsof -t /dev/dsp* /dev/audio* /dev/mixer* /dev/snd/*) ; sudo modprobe -r $(lsmod |grep ^snd |awk '{print $1}') && sudo modprobe snd-hda-codec && sudo modprobe snd-hda-intel model=auto
[04:16] <zeroday> nemik: is this yuor laptop Toshiba Satellite P100-343 ACPI
[04:16] <nemik> vashypooh: when you do an lspci or dmesg does it even show a sound device?
[04:16] <meta4ical> Music_Shuffle: I purposely left free space for ubuntu : P
[04:16] <Shadow_X> you dont go buy a car that looks good, if the engine sucks
[04:16] <usser> techjim: then download this ftp://whom.homeunix.org/vmware-any-any-update109.tar.gz
[04:16] <vashypooh> yes
[04:16] <Music_Shuffle> meta4ical: Oh, so the 60 is all for Ubuntu?
[04:16] <shane634> Shadow_X, or that it doesn't work well
[04:16] <Shadow_X> I want the car with the best engine under the hood, but I also want it to look nice too
[04:17] <defjux> gimp is way nicer to use than gimp. i'm a 10 yrat photoshop veteran i stopped using it and switched to gimp it is dreamily functional and fluid to work with.
[04:17] <agentnewb> Shadow_X: do you know how to code? if not how do you know what engine looks like?

[04:17] <meta4ical> Music_Shuffle: Well no, I had a large partition for windows and something like 20-25gb of free space for ubuntu
[04:17] <Music_Shuffle> meta4ical: then...15, 44, 1 should work for /, /home, and swap, or whatever it decides it likes for swap.
[04:17] <Electricity> If I install Windows after Ubuntu, will it kill Grub??????? ANYONE?
[04:17] <sn0w> lingga also go into synaptic and make sure you have all the compiz things you want installed, i would recommend you mark compiz-extra at the very least

[04:18] <JROCK2004> hoth676: I know how to mount the flash drive but it has 2 partitions and I only want to mount 1 of the partitions
[04:18] <agentnewb> Shadow_X: seriously just use wine, photoshop runs perfectly on linux
[04:18] <Shadow_X> Im not here to argue photoshop's superiority over GIMP. thats why Linux has never become totally mainstream, its not media focused
[04:18] <Electricity> If I install Windows after Ubuntu, will it kill Grub??????? ANYONE? WAKE UP PEOPLE HELLO?!?!?
[04:18] <agentnewb> Shadow_X: and you CAN use wine on 64 bit

[04:18] <sgtmattbaker> Electricity: if you install Windows after Ubuntu I will say yes
[04:18] <Music_Shuffle> Electricity: And yes.
[04:18] <nemik> zeroday: no it is a tecra 9100
[04:18] <Electricity> Why?
[04:18] <wraz79> anhbogy knwo how to adjust the HZ in the kernal to 1000?

[04:19] <vox754> !grub > Electricity
[04:19] <Music_Shuffle> lol
[04:19] <aoirthoir> Electricity, I told you, if you install windows after ubuntu windows will overwrite your Master boot record
[04:19] <zeroday> nemik: gimme a min

[04:19] <Electricity> Why if it's on a different damn partition?!

[04:19] <jl> i've tried:aptitude remove --purge mysql-server, aptitude install mysql-server
[04:19] <aoirthoir> Electricity, blame microsoft for that..it doesnt matter if its on a different partition.
[04:19] <JROCK2004> hoth676: see that is what I do not know.. mount /dev/sdb1??? /mnt
[04:19] <gonnaeatthat> photoshop did i hear photoshop
[04:19] <aoirthoir> Electricity, windows is "rude" when it comes to the master boot record.
[04:20] <jl> and it still doesn't work
[04:20] <PhilH> gonnaeatthat: i'm afraid so
[04:20] <JROCK2004> hoth676: the partition is setup as /dev/sdb1p1
[04:20] <gumjo> hey how do I hide files in Ubuntu?
[04:20] <JROCK2004> hoth676: the partition is setup as sdb1p1
[04:20] <nixnoo1> anyone know why i can only access my apache server from the LAN ?
[04:20] <Shadow_X> PhilH, it has nothing to do with Adobe and their choices. It has EVERYthing to do with the fact that linux has ALWAYS been the underdog in media. Windows led for some time, then finally Apple got smart and kicked M$ @$$
[04:20] <sgtmattbaker>  I did the 1-2-3 beryl installation method in the feisty wiki and now when I log in it just goes to a white background and I cannot do anything.  I have done sudo dkpg-reconfigure xserver-xorg and done sudo apt-get autoremove beryl emerald-themes and still nothing.
[04:20] <gonnaeatthat> lol
[04:20] <usser> gumjo: put a dot in front of the name of the file
[04:20] <aoirthoir> Electricity, so if you install windows after ubuntu..you need to do some crazy tricks (which i dont know how to do) to get grub back on the MBR
[04:20] <jl> any ideas please?
[04:20] <PhilH> gumjo: put a . at the beginning of the name
[04:20] <gonnaeatthat> lol sgtmatt welcome to beryl
[04:20] <Roey> hi
[04:20] <aoirthoir> Electricity, sorry G..but thats Microsoft for you.
[04:20] <gonnaeatthat> mine did the same thing
[04:20] <gumjo> yes I tried that its not working
[04:20] <gonnaeatthat> thats why i use compiz
[04:20] <vox754> !grub > aoirthoir
[04:20] <Roey> Hi, anyone else here have a Wacom?  Why is it that my 9x12 only gets interpreted as having a 6x8 drawing surface?
[04:20] <Shadow_X> now, if Linux software developers would just get SMART for once, linux could really become mainstream
[04:20] <Music_Shuffle> aoirthoir: or he could just...install them the other order around ;P
[04:20] <wastrel> Shadow_X:  take it to #ubuntu-offtopic this is not appropriate here, #ubuntu is a tech support channel
[04:20] <gonnaeatthat> beryl = sucks
[04:20] <mister_roboto> nixnoo1: you mean a LAN on your home router but not from the internet?
[04:21] <usser> gumjo: impossible =), it has to work
[04:21] <aoirthoir> Music_Shuffle, yes he could..but he has already installed ubuntu and now wants to install windows as well....
[04:21] <shane634> Shadow_X, the companies follow market share.. hence OSX
[04:21] <weswh-> does anyone know the name (as in apt-get install *) of the 3ware app that monitors 3ware cards/RAID arrays?
[04:21] <PhilH> Shadow_X: i think you may be speaking from orifices not best qualified for such purposes ;)
[04:21] <gumjo> oh, a refresh did the trick lol
[04:21] <aro> This is not a debate channel about software, this is an Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu-offtopic please
[04:21] <usser> gumjo: hehe
[04:21] <nixnoo1> mister_roboto yes i can see it fine from comps on my lan but internet is no go
[04:21] <Shadow_X> Apple ALONE has made their OS more media enhanced that Windows and Linux COMBINED
[04:21] <Music_Shuffle> aoirthoir: Oh, I thought he had just fried his part's...nvm. :D
[04:21] <Music_Shuffle> Shadow_X: stoppppppp. Thanks.
[04:21] <mister_roboto> nixnoo1: you need to set up port forwarding on your router so that incoming connections get routed to the private address of the host with apache running on it
[04:21] <Shadow_X> the fact that they have media companies behind then, just enhances that fact
[04:22] <shane634> Shadow_X, make it available and this community will improve it.. that is a fact
[04:22] <PhilH> Shadow_X: please, quiet
[04:22] <aoirthoir> someone sent me a msg from ubuto..please dont do that:)
[04:22] <usser> Shadow_X: pffft apple talk about software pirats
[04:22] <Electricity> Man, that link I got about losing GRUB after Windows makes no sense to me =\
[04:22] <nixnoo1> mister_roboto im not that stupid but thanks for trying ive done that already
[04:22] <nemik> lol @ apple
[04:22] <aoirthoir> Electricity, thats what I said g. Grub is not a simple thing.
[04:22] <Shadow_X> pffft, and linux developers arent pirates?   I copied the directions
[04:23] <Electricity> So I can save it if I got Ubuntu Edgy LiveCD?
[04:23] <SoulREX> Anyone run into an issue with KNetworkManager reporting networkmanager isn't running after a Feisty upgrade?
[04:23] <shanerdaner> I am watching the cubs and the cards right now a gg
[04:23] <weswh-> usser: are you implying that apple "stole" code?
[04:23] <andre_pl> my laptop shuts itself down when i play ut2004 online, but doesn't do it if i'm playing single player.
[04:23] <bur[n] er> someone tell me if this makes sense...  I'm going to cp -a /media/cdrom0 (which is ubuntu 7.04) /media/usbdisk (which is an external drive), then i'm going to boot /media/usbdisk on my laptop to try to install feisty.  (my cd drive doesn't work)
[04:23] <techjim> usser: do I have to uninstall and then reinstall it?
[04:23] <Music_Shuffle> lefty_: within Gnome?
[04:23] <aoirthoir> Electricity, as mentioned grub is a complicated process. :D
[04:23] <Shadow_X> I have nothing against pirates, but come on. KDE's gui is based on windows, codecs for M$ proprietary formats made for linux, software that is an exact clone of M$ and Apple stuff, all for linux
[04:24] <zeroday> nemik: can you get sound working in windows?
[04:24] <Electricity> aoirthoir: You're just spamming, as you'e said that 3+ times.
[04:24] <SoulREX> I uninstalled/re-installed knetworkmanager, network-manager
[04:24] <lefty_> Music_Shuffle: yes
[04:24] <JROCK2004> hoth676: it tells me sdb1p1 does not exist
[04:24] <EdgEy> Shadow_X, pirating? lol
[04:24] <EdgEy> a word processor is a word processor
[04:24] <aoirthoir> Electricity, I am not spamming.

[04:24] <PhilH> Shadow_X: please, you're employing that unsuitable orifice for oratory purposes again

[04:24] <aoirthoir> Electricity, youve asked several times this question and weve all given you the same answer.....so if your asking several times is not spamming,..my answering several times is not spamming.
[04:24] <Music_Shuffle> lefty_: did yo ualready try...System -> Preferences -> Keyboard and then remap it?
[04:24] <vox754> Electricity, read carefully the links. You have Ubuntu, if you install Windows you lose grub, but then you reinstall grub and that's it, you can boot both OSes

[04:25] <mister_roboto> nixnoo1: and, i'm sorry to say, but apparently you are pretty god damned stupid if you can't figure it out but assume you understand networking

[04:25] <shanerdaner> wireless cards anyone??
[04:25] <shane634> Rio79, give me your info again been awhile and lots of chat here lol
[04:25] <sgtmattbaker>  I did the 1-2-3 beryl installation method in the feisty wiki and now when I log in it just goes to a white background and I cannot do anything.   No need to touch your flash. Your problem is in /dev... You need to create that /dev/...
[04:25] <shanerdaner> i have a netgeat
[04:25] <weswh-> usser: but they do say that. in fact they usually market OS X server as "the power of UNIX...the polish of Apple", or whatever.

[04:26] <wastrel> sgtmattbaker:  the good folks on #ubuntu-effects can help with that :]
[04:26] <tritium> mister_roboto: I understand

[04:26] <JROCK2004> hoth676: ok how?
[04:26] <eRazor> Can someone help in installing GRUB after installing Winblow$
[04:26] <zeroday> nemik: from what i can tell it may be actual computer design. How old is it? also there are numerous reports of sound/video/mouse breaking due to frame flexing
[04:26] <lefty_> Music_Shuffle: cant find a way to do that
[04:26] <PhilH> shanerdaner: let me know if you find a fix
[04:26] <usser> techjim: no, if in console u run vmware and it says that vmware was installed but is not configured properly then theres no need to reinstall just apply the patch
[04:26] <Kazol> How do I reduce resources taken up by Konversation when it is running in the system tray?
[04:26] <nemik> shanerdaner: lol @ netgear. ndiswrapper sucks a lot IMO. too much trouble just get a new card if you can
[04:26] <weswh-> I don't think apple has ever hidden the idea that they built it on BSD/NeXT/UNIX, whatever you want to call it.
[04:26] <shanerdaner> it doesnt work when i reset the computer
[04:26] <agentnewb> shanerdaner: do lspci in terminal and tell me the line related to your wireless card, also make sure you use the on/off switch if present
[04:26] <Rio79> shane634 i was trying to get my nvidia card to work with svideo output, so you gave me a link to a forum with "nvidia twinview" in it
[04:26] <Pelo> !grub > eRazor  check pm
[04:26] <aoirthoir> vox754, I dont need them but I appreciate it anyhow. I'm not planning on running windows.
[04:26] <shane634> mad wifi covers much of it now
[04:26] <eRazor> Pelo: What's pm?
[04:26] <shane634> Rio79, ok hang on
[04:27] <shanerdaner> well 1 sec let me logon with that machine
[04:27] <PhilH> shanerdaner: has this card ever worked with previous ubuntu versions, is it the prism54 version?
[04:27] <usser> weswh-: oh really, well i take my words back? see im quick to accuse everyone, im one of those crazy types =)
[04:27] <Pelo> eRazor,  private message window I just sent you instrctions to reisntall grub
[04:27] <nomad111> how come my cd rom is not mounted on startup
[04:27] <hoth676> JROCK2004:  you have the /dev/MAKEDEV tool for that. Not sure I recall how to use it. I wonder if ubuntu has some tool to do the same. Anyone ??
[04:27] <shane634> Rio79, here it is http://ubuntuforums.org/search.php?searchid=19004057
[04:27] <JROCK2004> hoth676: yeah I could not even set the partition to ext2 yet
[04:27] <nomad111> and refuses to mount thereafter
[04:27] <nemik> zeroday: damn, thanks for the info. i'll try some liveCD's and see if it comes up with them. but the fact that there is nothing in lspci or dmesg about a sound card or ac97 makes me thing you're right
[04:27] <Music_Shuffle> Kazol: I guess you could close it?
[04:27] <nomad111> i have to eject and reinsert the disc
[04:27] <vox754> Electricity, the steps to reinstall Grub are simple, basically like three commands, juts define where you want it installed (disk and MBR), and then you install it.
[04:27] <hierro> is ubuntu a phenomenon?
[04:27] <Kazol> Music_Shuffle: Without closing? Will reducing the number of lines help?
[04:27] <Rio79> okay thanks shane634

[04:28] <Music_Shuffle> Kazol: I can't say, sorry.  But you could try...I'd love to find out :D
[04:28] <nemik> zeroday: no thanks a lot for your help, i really appreciate it
[04:28] <chamunks> How do i set my computer to connect via wifi before login to allow remote xdmcp logins?
[04:28] <hoth676> JROCK2004: 'ext2' is not a partivion. It's a partition 'type' used by linux filesystem.

[04:28] <wraz79> how do you change your timer interrupt rate?
[04:28] <Electricity> vox
[04:28] <shanerdaner> k hold on its bootinh up
[04:28] <JROCK2004> ./Makedev update
[04:28] <Electricity> vox754: PM me please
[04:28] <Kazol> Will the Belkin Wireless G 54Mbit\s wifi card work in Ubuntu?
[04:29] <micros> anyone know a channel for ns-2 ?
[04:29] <shane634> Kazol, yes it has before
[04:29] <vox754> aoirthoir, yeah, I haven't had to reinstall grub but reading how to do it may be handy, if not to help yourself to help others
[04:29] <JROCK2004> hoth676: that still did not work
[04:29] <zeroday> Kazol: google it
[04:29] <usser> weswh-: well yea but makes me uncomfortable when something as good as osx comes out and the ppl that did quite a lot of work(the developers of the original BSD) dont get nothing, codewise, back
[04:29] <micros> i was wondering if the tcp-ip stack can be replaced with an alternate one
[04:29] <chamunks> How do i set my computer to connect via wifi before login to allow remote xdmcp logins?
[04:29] <shanerdaner> when i restart the pc it doesnt work when i pull the battery and repower it does work
[04:29] <Kazol> shane634: Is it easy? I'm new to Linux.
[04:29] <andre_pl> how can I adjust the 'safe temperatures' to prevent ubuntu from shutting down when it thinks its too hot.
[04:29] <vashypooh> okay here is my error /etc/gdm/Xsession: begining session setup
[04:29] <vox754> Electricity, I can't I'm not registered, join #vocx
[04:29] <andre_pl> i think thats why its shutting down during gaming, but its not getting very hot
[04:29] <aoirthoir> vox754, agreed. Myself though, I am migrating my office to Ubuntu..it might take the next year or two to do it..once I have all the software written that I am designing...then we can be done with MS.
[04:29] <Pelo> andre_pl,  I think you do that in the bios
[04:29] <shane634> Kazol, yes just check the forums for that card.. not hard at all
[04:30] <vashypooh> .: 2 : Can't open /etc/X11/imwheel/startup.conf
[04:30] <JROCK2004> does ubuntu have a gui partitioner?
[04:30] <Kazol> I'll try it.
[04:30] <karthik> Whenever i boot my system dosfsck runsand starts checking the entire hard disk .. its takes lot of time ..how to avoid this?
[04:30] <nemik> andre_pl, yea that is usually BIOS settings
[04:30] <andre_pl> Pelo, i'm pretty sure theres something at the OS level too
[04:30] <usser> JROCK2004: yes]
[04:30] <andre_pl> isn't there
[04:30] <Pelo> JROCK2004,  yes , gparted, you might need to install it , it's on the live cd but nto the default install
[04:30] <JROCK2004> usser: by default or do I have to install it?
[04:30] <nemik> andre_pl i'm pretty sure there is nothing in OS for it
[04:30] <Pelo> andre_pl,  check in here   http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Ubuntu:Feisty
[04:30] <shane634> haha i run an outdated bios on fiesty no issues
[04:30] <ke4nt> goto about:config in your browser, search for "browser.download.hide_plugins_without_extensions"  change to false.  Now you can setup xmms to play streams and downloads.
[04:30] <vashypooh> where can i remove that call that it is makeing so i can not have to use rescue mode?
[04:30] <techjim> usser: doesn't work ;/
[04:30] <shane634> my bios is from 1997
[04:31] <JROCK2004> Pelo: thanks installing now
[04:31] <usser> JROCK2004: qtparted
[04:31] <craigbass1976> zeroday, maybe this is more of a firefox question.  I can already play mp3 files if I specify that they will open in xmms, but firefox is trying to make totem do it.
[04:31] <Pelo> vashypooh,  what do you mean ?
[04:31] <chamunks> Does anyone know where i might look to set up to connect via wifi before login?
[04:31] <JROCK2004> usser: will that mount those partitions as well
[04:31] <hoth676> JROCK2004: googling for MAKEDEV would give you better help than I. At least you know where your problem is: not your flash, just configuring your linux. see http://linux.about.com/od/commands/l/blcmdl8_MAKEDEV.htm   for example.
[04:31] <vashypooh> Pelo, .: 2 : Can't open /etc/X11/imwheel/startup.conf
[04:31] <vashypooh> right after /etc/gdm/Xsession: begining session setup
[04:31] <wraz79> anybody knwo how to change the timer interrupt rate without having to recompile?
[04:31] <shane634> vashypooh, does it exist on you rig?
[04:31] <usser> techjim: any messages?
[04:31] <wraz79> or do you ahve to recompile?
[04:32] <usser> techjim: where it fails?
[04:32] <vashypooh> no because i uninstalled it
[04:32] <kbrosnan> craigbass1976: you would need to remove the totem plugin and add the xmms plugin if there is one
[04:32] <ke4nt> craigbass1976, see my above post
[04:32] <shane634> vashypooh, then you can't open it simple as that
[04:32] <zeroday> craigbass1976: System > Preferences > Preferred Apps i think
[04:32] <vashypooh> i dont want to..
[04:32] <vashypooh> i want it to not want to
[04:32] <techjim> usser: vmware is installed, but it has not been (correctly) configured
[04:32] <techjim> for this system.
[04:32] <shane634> vashypooh, purge it then
[04:32] <zeroday> !enter | vashypooh
[04:32] <ubotu> vashypooh: Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation!
[04:32] <vashypooh> how
[04:32] <usser> JROCK2004: depends what do u mean by mounting, mount command takes care of mounting, or fstab if u wanna make mounts permanent
[04:33] <usser> techjim: right ok, now did u run the patch?
[04:33] <kbrooks> I wonder if there is a way to do individual security for each program, like e.g. create a virtual environment for it
[04:33] <techjim> usser: sudo ./runme.pl
[04:33] <BryanJK> would anyone know why ubuntu won't read my floppy drive? it just did less than 3 minutes ago
[04:33] <daneel> the ubuntu live cd is not booting. its stuck at "running local boot scripts (etc/rc.local)   [ok] "
[04:33] <shane634> kbrooks, sounds like overkill to me
[04:33] <JROCK2004> usser: on my flash drive I want 2 partitions on it. I want to mount each partition
[04:33] <usser> techjim: gimme the last couple of line of the script
[04:33] <vashypooh> Where would I go to remove that files reference so it would quit trying to access it?
[04:33] <karthik> Whenever i boot my system dosfsck runs and starts checking the entire hard disk .. its takes lot of time to get login prompt ..how to avoid this?
[04:33] <chamunks> Does anyone know where i might look to set up to connect via wifi before login?
[04:33] <woo> Hi all, my raid 5 array will not run at all, it is telling me that superblocks are wrong and creating the array from 3 of 5 drives. Can someone help?
[04:34] <shane634> vashypooh, i don't have the exact command
[04:34] <kbrooks> shane634, OK, not for each program, but fior all GUI programs
[04:34] <techjim> usser: You can now run VMware Workstation by invoking the following command:
[04:34] <techjim> "/usr/bin/vmware".
[04:34] <shanerdaner> ok what do u need me to copy to get the info on this card
[04:34] <wraz79> how hard is it to recompile the kernel?
[04:34] <shane634> kbrooks, just lock em to users
[04:34] <shanerdaner> ok
[04:34] <techjim> usser: enjoy -- vwmare team
[04:34] <shanerdaner> im on it now
[04:34] <kbrooks> shane634, that is not "security"
[04:34] <zeroday> wraz79: same as about 7 yrs agoooooooooo
[04:34] <usser> techjim: hm weird
[04:34] <shanerdaner> what do u need to get the gw511t on this thing working better?
[04:34] <karthik> Whenever i boot my system dosfsck runs and starts checking the entire hard disk .. its takes lot of time to get login prompt ..how to avoid this.. please someone help?
[04:34] <netwkrtot> hi all, can anyone tell me where I can find some desktop widgets? Any in the repository?
[04:34] <vashypooh> shane634, do you have an idea of what im lookginf ro?
[04:35] <wraz79> im new to linux so i have no idea
[04:35] <shane634> kbrooks, sure it is they can't alter em or do any downloading at all
[04:35] <zeroday> !gdesklets | netwkrtot
[04:35] <ubotu> netwkrtot: gDesklets provides an advanced architecture for desktop applets -- tiny displays sitting on your desktop in a symbiotic relationship of eye candy and usefulness. Homepage is http://gdesklets.gnomedesktop.org/
[04:35] <usser> techjim: that usually means u set up vmware correctly
[04:35] <wraz79> need to change the HZ to 1000
[04:35] <Pelo> netwkrtot,  just do a search in synaptic for gdesklets
[04:35] <shane634> vashypooh, no sorry
[04:35] <kbrooks> shane634, no, it is not. at all. period. ever.
[04:35] <techjim> usser: =/ ugh
[04:35] <Pelo> wraz79,  you might have more luck searching for an answer in the forum
[04:35] <woo> Can anyone explain why mdadm can not find 2 of 5 hard disks? the device names haven not changed.
[04:35] <techjim> usser: thanks for the help... I really liked vmware too
[04:35] <JROCK2004> usser: any thoughts
[04:35] <shanerdaner> hello?
[04:35] <usser> techjim: and that comes after running /vmware-config.pl
[04:35] <wraz79> ill give it a check thanks
[04:35] <zeroday> wraz79: if you are new to linux i strongly recommend you dont rebuild the kernel as it is extrememly difficult and very likely to break your system
[04:36] <shane634> kbrooks, maybe i missed the point then sorry
[04:36] <hoth676> usser:  JROCK2004 needs to make a 'device' with MAKEDEV before he can mount his flash drive, from what I understand.
[04:36] <usser> techjim: im asking for output of vmware-any-to-any update run?
[04:36] <karthik> Whenever i boot my system dosfsck runs and starts checking the entire hard disk .. its takes lot of time to get login prompt ..how to avoid this...please somene help?
[04:36] <techjim> usser: that comes after running that script I downloaded
[04:36] <techjim> usser: yeaht hat was it
[04:36] <usser> techjim: heh
[04:36] <wraz79> zeroday: is there anyother way to change the HZ in the kernal?
[04:36] <shanerdaner> anyone hearing me?
[04:36] <kbrooks> shane634, something liike this http://www.trustware.com/virtualization/landingpages/stumbleupon.html but for Free

[04:36] <zeroday> wraz79: HZ?
[04:36] <usser> techjim: what distribution u running i386 or Amd64 one?
[04:36] <bianconeri> hello how does one delete all downloaded packages by apt-get and/or aptitude?

[04:37] <woo> Can anyone explain why mdadm can not find 2 of 5 hard disks? the device names haven not changed.
[04:37] <Pelo> bianconeri,  you can remove them with synaptic, if that's what you want to do ,  but you can'T just removethem all, you need to pick which ones you want
[04:37] <zeroday> shanerdaner: unplug and replug
[04:37] <shanerdaner> when i pull the battery out and restart it the lt works fine
[04:37] <shane634> kbrooks, dansguardian maybe.. paranoid??
[04:37] <craigbass1976> zeroday, System > Preferences > Preferred Apps only gives me the choice of browser, email, and terminal apps.  Weird, I don't see any way to add new file formats in that menu, or in the firefox one at Edit > Preferences > Content > Manage
[04:37] <Pelo> bianconeri,  or you use  sudo apt-get remove package
[04:37] <daneel> can someone help me get ubuntu installed ?
[04:38] <shanerdaner> then the card quits
[04:38] <Pelo> daneel,  what problem are you having ?
[04:38] <kbrosnan> craigbass1976: that menu has noting to do with plugins
[04:38] <craigbass1976> zeroday, I did just get it to work on my dapper box though.
[04:38] <luisgmarine> which is better?  Evolution or Thunderbird
[04:38] <kbrooks> shane634, no no curiousity
[04:38] <zeroday> wraz79: go to forums they have many good tutorials there
[04:38] <kbrooks> !info dansguardian
[04:38] <ubotu> dansguardian: Web content filtering. In component universe, is optional. Version <IP_ADDRESS>-antivirus-<IP_ADDRESS>-2 (feisty), package size 288 kB, installed size 1496 kB
[04:38] <zeroday> craigbass1976: dunno sorry
[04:38] <daneel> Pelo: i cant get to the graphical interface on the live cd
[04:38] <wraz79> any suggested keywords to find them?
[04:38] <kbrooks> shane634, no, that isnt it
[04:38] <Pelo> luisgmarine,  evolution is more like an organizer,  thundervird is email and newsreader
[04:38] <daneel> Pelo: it gets stuck at the command line
[04:38] <shane634> kbrooks, your ip is spoofed and all ports are close by default.. overkill
[04:38] <bianconeri> Pelo I don't want to uninstall, but rather remove the downloaded packages that were used for installation...I am assuming they are saved somewhere, I just wanna free some space
[04:38] <techjim> usser: think reinstalling will make a difference?
[04:39] <Pelo> daneel,   try the alternate install cd  it is text based
[04:39] <zeroday> wraz79: rebuild kernel <distro version>
[04:39] <usser> techjim: no
[04:39] <kbrooks> shane634, your impression of  the word virtualization is clearly messed up.
[04:39] <shanerdaner> so noone can give me a hand?
[04:39] <daneel> bianconeri: use sudo apt-get autoclean
[04:39] <`Matir> I have something odd: my computer (both in Ubuntu and BIOS), the computer complains the battery is "not present", however the battery is
[04:39] <conn> hi, does anyone know if it's possible to make ubuntu ignore a http proxy if it times out?
[04:39] <wraz79> thanks zeroday

[04:39] <usser> techjim: ok when u run the vmware-any-to-any look carefully what it says after each stop and paste it here?
[04:39] <shane634> kbrooks, perhaps.. i need to know exactly what you wanna do.. most of it is done on auto
[04:40] <techjim> usser: should I pm you with it?
[04:40] <usser> techjim: yea that'd be best
[04:40] <chamunks> is there a way to configure wifi to connect before login?

[04:41] <daneel> zeroday: hp
[04:41] <Pelo> daneel,  you can try installing with the intel card and later on add the restricted drivers for ATI
[04:41] <bartel> is it: apt-get update, upgrade, dist-upgrade to go to feisty?

[04:42] <vashypooh> does anyone know how to remove gdm trying to load a cfg file that does not exist?
[04:42] <usser> techjim: bah no no pm, =)
[04:42] <craigbass1976> ke4nt, That's awesome.  Got it, thanks
[04:42] <zeroday> daneel: i dunno how to set it up for ati but lemme check
[04:42] <Electricity> Is there like a free Dreamweaver for Linux???
[04:42] <chamunks> Pelo, ok my search term was backwards to that kinda ill giver a try
[04:42] <wastrel> chamunks:  add a line in  /etc/network/interfaces   with    auto <wifi iface>    mine is   auto eth0   for example
[04:42] <usser> techjim: restrictions and whatnot =)
[04:42] <shane634> vashypooh, -rm

[04:42] <usser> techjim: just paste it here
[04:42] <Electricity> daneel: Whats it like?
[04:43] <craigbass1976> Electricity, I believe seamonkey (mozilla) has a graphical html editor.
[04:43] <shanerdaner> how od u install nvu on fiesty?
[04:43] <Pelo> chamunks,  no garranties,  I don'T think word order matters that much  but search and read the headders,  it might give you some ideas for other search terms
[04:43] <chamunks> Pelo, i usually come here when my searches are beginning to get frustrating
[04:43] <BlackAnthrax> is there someway i can make my moniter power off when i click the "lock" button? instead it just turns black(my screensaver)
[04:43] <wastrel> !nvu | shanerdaner
[04:43] <ubotu> shanerdaner: nvu is a WYSIWYG and code dual-function HTML editor for easily creating web pages.  The original developer is working on a full rewrite; meanwhile, another is doing bugfixes.  It is not in the Ubuntu repos for Feisty Fawn, but ping tonyyarusso to inquire about packages.  See also !html.
[04:43] <craigbass1976> Electricity, the old mozilla (1.7-ish) had one
[04:43] <Electricity> seamoney is bad
[04:43] <daneel> Electricity: i dont really know what you need do i ? it works fine for me. try it out
