[10:00] <slacker_nl> amorphous_: and if you want to ssh to those boxes, install openssh-server (make sure you do not permit root logins though)
[10:00] <Jetfighter> Is this actually linux, or it is like different?
[10:00] <Unarme1> i had to run a number of complicated procedures to get it to work, but it works now. yes i am
[10:00] <Flannel> Jetfighter: it's actual linux, yes.
[10:01] <OuZo> jrib: ubotu Flannel thanks
[10:01] <Jetfighter> Sweet, but a problem
[10:01] <Chesney> vox754: Thank you so much for the help. I'm going to go attempt to get it working again.
[10:01] <Halitech> Jetfighter, the kernel is linux, just a different distro on top of the kernel
[10:01] <OuZo> jrib: ubotu Flannel im in edgy 64bit
[10:01] <Jetfighter> I downloaded JRE6, it says it can't open the file with the encoding or something along those linwa
[10:01] <Jetfighter> lines*
[10:01] <rwlyonsjr> Unarme1: Is seems to be easier to get things to work on older macs, intel macs or PC's
[10:01] <lisapc> how come I cant delete things from my NTFS partition?
[10:01] <Flannel> !java | Jetfighter
[10:01] <ubotu> Jetfighter: 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

[10:01] <sbn> Hi, my installer hung on Configurating apg
[10:01] <god> Hello POUND Ubuntu!
[10:01] <sbn> whats this?
[10:01] <slacker_nl> amorphous_: and maybe setup a small DNS server so you can ssh to them without having to remember the ip addresses (or if it a small network, add them to /etc/hosts -  eg <IP_ADDRESS>   mypc)
[10:01] <Flannel> lisapc: deleting is writing
[10:01] <earthen> can anyone tell me how to restart the usb service
[10:02] <slacker_nl> amorphous_: then you can do `ssh mypc` and you're done :)
[10:02] <lisapc> Flannel,  ty
[10:02] <god> apt-get keeps saying I should run apt-get update --fix-missing
[10:02] <god> how do I do that?
[10:02] <vox754> Chesney: okay.
[10:02] <lisapc> Flannel, so I can read but not write to NTFS?
[10:02] <astinus> lisapc: ntfs3g
[10:02] <Flannel> lisapc: you can, reead the last sentence of that factoid ;)
[10:02] <lisapc> astinus, ok
[10:02] <Halitech> god I though you knew all ;)
[10:02] <shedi> god, apt-get -f install
[10:02] <earthen> god apt-get update -f I think
[10:02] <lisapc> Flannel,  :)
[10:02] <astinus> !ntfs-3g | lisapc
[10:02] <ubotu> lisapc: ntfs-3g is is a Linux driver which allows read/write access to NTFS partitions. It has been extensively tested but please remember to keep backups of critical data. Installation instructions at http://lunapark6.com/?p=1710 (Dapper) and http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=217009/ (Edgy)
[10:02] <PriceChild> god, run "sudo apt-get update --fix-missing" in a terminal
[10:02] <lisapc> !ntfs-3g
[10:02] <Unarme1> nother question. im trying to install the ralink usb driver, and im getting errors at the "make" situation
[10:03] <lisapc> !fuse
[10:03] <ubotu> Though it's still very unsafe, you can read about Ubuntu NTFS writing using fuse here: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Lkraider/NtfsFuse
[10:03] <Jetfighter> Can I do things like % Where is my brain]
[10:03] <Chesney> I've got one more question for the channel. This time refering to GRUB. I installed Ubuntu. and as many times as I've done this I still managed to do it backwards. After partitioning and installing Ubuntu.  I popped the Windows CD into the drive and installed. It of course overwrites the MBR. Now, How does one setup grub to include the new windows partition.  which I placed in the third...
[10:03] <Chesney> ...partition on the same drive.
[10:03] <slacker_nl> Jetfighter: find / -name mybrain or locate mybrain ;)
[10:03] <lisapc> i have a Nvidia 7300 video card!  I dont think ubuntu is using them atm.  How can I see what video drivers Ubuntu uses?
[10:03] <Jetfighter> In...Terminal?
[10:04] <slacker_nl> Jetfighter: yes
[10:04] <Flannel> !grub | Chesney
[10:04] <ubotu> Chesney: 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
[10:04] <god> it's saying Password: ,what do I do now?
[10:04] <Halitech> god enter your password
[10:04] <Jetfighter> Do I need the CD in it to run this OS?
[10:04] <god> Halitech: where do I get that?
[10:04] <Halitech> Jetfighter - only if you are running the livecd
[10:04] <Chesney> Flannel: Much appreciated.
[10:04] <vox754> Chesney: you can actually set that info yourself.  You open the "/boot/grub/menu.lst" and add a few lines.
[10:05] <lisapc> Flannel,  any ideas about my video card?
[10:05] <Jetfighter> The one you download from site and burn to disk?
[10:05] <Halitech> god - you would have entered it when you were installling
[10:05] <eekrano> debug1: SSH2_MSG_SERVICE_ACCEPT received -- look familiar to anyone? I can't ssh out to anywhere and debug dies here
[10:05] <god> Halitech: I never entered one.
[10:05] <god> is that a problem?
[10:05] <Jetfighter> Hailtech
[10:05] <Chesney> vox754: Yeah, I figured as much. Main problem is I just have no experience with GRUB, I always used Lilo on my gentoo system
[10:05] <Halitech> jetfighter - did you actually install it to your harddrive or is it running from the cd?
[10:05] <Lost_Soul> have forms to optimizer conecction internet???
[10:06] <Jetfighter> I booted from the CD and picked install or run ubunti
[10:06] <Halitech> god - in order to log into the system you would unless you are using the livecd
[10:06] <vox754> Chesney: Oh. Lilo. Gentoo. Those words hurt my pride; I thought you were a new guy.
[10:06] <kimiks> ciao a tutti
[10:06] <god> Halitech: no, I installed it.
[10:06] <Flannel> god: What installer did you use?  which CD?
[10:06] <Halitech> jetfighter - have you actually installed it?
[10:06] <god> it has the Ubuntu logo on the CD
[10:06] <Chesney> vox754: No just confused =)
[10:06] <god> I got it in the mail.
[10:06] <kimiks> chi mi pu aiutare con il mulo su ubuntu
[10:06] <wolferine> who has an ATI card, and has Beryl working?
[10:06] <Jetfighter> Hailtech
[10:06] <Lost_Soul> have forms to optimizer conecction internet???
[10:07] <Jetfighter> How would I know that?
[10:07] <Flannel> god: ok, the Desktop Cd.  It booted a nice pretty GUI, right?
[10:07] <colorred> Lost_Soul: ?
[10:07] <lisapc> should I have backports enabled?
[10:07] <Flannel> wolferine: #ubuntu-effects for beryl support
[10:07] <kimiks> qulcuno para italiano = ?
[10:07] <Flannel> lisapc: probably not

[10:07] <ubotu> kimiks: Vai su #ubuntu-it o su #kubuntu-it se vuoi parlare in italiano, in questo canale usiamo solo l'inglese. Grazie!
[10:07] <Halitech> jetfighter - do you have an icon on your desktop that says install?
[10:07] <god> Flannel: yes!
[10:07] <earthen> wolferine, I do I have the ferrari 4005 laptop with an x700 ati card
[10:07] <Lost_Soul> colorred, sorry my english, i like optimizzer my internet
[10:07] <Jetfighter> Idk
[10:07] <PriceChild> Flannel, bah you know it then :)
[10:07] <Lost_Soul> conecction
[10:07] <Jetfighter> Ugh, yes. :(
[10:07] <wolferine> xgl earthen?
[10:07] <Halitech> jetfighter, okay, you are using the livecd so yes, yo uneed the cd in
[10:08] <Jetfighter> earthen: is that an Acer product?
[10:08] <wolferine> or do you not remember?
[10:08] <earthen> wolferine, I think so yes
[10:08] <earthen> Jetfighter, yes
[10:08] <vox754> Chesney: alright, you just don't emerge me you wrath. I kind of think that nowadays Lilo is no longer better than GRUB.
[10:08] <lisapc> how can I tell which video drivers Ubuntu uses?  I have a NVidia 7300 video card, and Im not sure if I have to set it up or if Ubuntu installed them. I can watch videos atm
[10:08] <Chesney> vox754: Though, I'm just trying to figure out what needs to be assed to the grub file, keeping the Ubuntu boot information intact, while adding the entry for the windows system.
[10:08] <Jetfighter> Yay, I got Aspire 3690 lol
[10:08] <wolferine> lisapc: check in your xorg.conf
[10:08] <Jetfighter> Hailtech, if I open install, then once thats done, I won't need the CD in?
[10:08] <Flannel> god: Alright, well, during the installer, you *did* set a password.  But, we can still change it.  What you need to do is (write this down): reboot, hit escape after your POST screen, choose the "recovery mode", then once that finishes, type "passwd [your username] " and then when it asks, set your new password.  then reboot (`shutdown -r now`)
[10:08] <Chesney> vox754: I'm doing my best to keep up with the times, only reason I switched =)
[10:08] <kclod> ciao a tutti
[10:08] <user1234> hi @ all
[10:09] <amorphous_> slacker_nl, i've been using ssh - not openssh-server. is there a difference?
[10:09] <earthen> Jetfighter, how is it, I have no complants about my ferrari axcept for the sound is kinda crappy
[10:09] <kimiks> ciao
[10:09] <Chesney> vox754: assed, meant to be added.
[10:09] <kimiks> kclod
[10:09] <Jetfighter> It's pretty nice
[10:09] <slacker_nl> amorphous_: you have the client and the server
[10:09] <Flannel> amorphous_: they're one and the same.
[10:09] <god> Flannel: thanx. I'm on a laptop, so I'll just do that now.
[10:09] <Jetfighter> Hella awesome screen
[10:09] <lisapc> wolferine,  i cant get nauitlus to access root folders!  how can I do tha?
[10:09] <user1234> i have a problem uninstalling a package  http://rafb.net/p/qosUuC94.html
[10:09] <kclod> ciao
[10:09] <god> it's rebooting now
[10:09] <vox754> Chesney: I think you can add lines to the Grub menu without impact. You can add lines as separators.
[10:09] <Jetfighter> Hailtech: If I run the installer, it will install, then I won't need the CD, right?
[10:09] <earthen> Jetfighter, 15.4
[10:09] <lisapc> when I run Nautilus, it doesnt show me any root folders
[10:09] <god> okay, it's going into recovery mode.
[10:09] <Flannel> lisapc: `gksu nautilus`  and be careful
[10:09] <slacker_nl> amorphous_: one is for setting up the connection to a server (where you have the ssh server running)
[10:10] <user1234> http://rafb.net/p/Re5KOC42.html
[10:10] <kwheeler> quit
[10:10] <user1234> any ideas
[10:10] <bruenig> user1234, what language is that
[10:10] <user1234> ?
[10:10] <Flannel> lisapc: that's because youre running nautlus as a normal user (you)
[10:10] <slacker_nl> amorphous_: ubuntu has the client default installed, not the server
[10:10] <wolferine> lisapc: u can do sudo nautilus
[10:10] <tommy> slacker_nl: i cannot find a repository that contains rar
[10:10] <wolferine> from a shell
[10:10] <Flannel> wolferine, lisapc, not sudo, gksu
[10:10] <Chesney> vox754: Its just editing the config file correct? (Still lost as to what I need to add though)
[10:10] <amorphous_> Flannel, slacker_nl thanks
[10:10] <bruenig> !info rar
[10:10] <ubotu> rar: Archiver for .rar files. In component multiverse, is optional. Version 1:3.5.1-1 (edgy), package size 239 kB, installed size 472 kB (Only available for i386)
[10:10] <Halitech> Jetfighter - correct, once it's installed you dont need to keep the cd in
[10:10] <vox754> Chesney: I just saw some info, "man grub", "man update-grub", "man grub-install"
[10:10] <Jetfighter> Ok
[10:10] <user1234> it is german
[10:10] <bruenig> !de

[10:10] <Jetfighter> How long will install take, and will it free up space?
[10:10] <amorphous_> slacker_nl, if i have installed ssh on all boxes - am i less secure?
[10:10] <wolferine> u mean gksudo ?
[10:11] <bruenig> wolferine, gksudo is a symlink to gksu
[10:11] <Flannel> wolferine: gksudo is a symlink to gksu, so yes
[10:11] <lisapc> Flannel,  when I typed gksu nautilus it only shows my home folders.  not root folders!  whats solution pls?
[10:11] <god> okay, it's rebooting again now, after changing the password thing
[10:11] <Unarme1> "make" says to me  that something is missing from a directory when i try to use it on the ralink driver files
[10:11] <slacker_nl> amorphous_: no, that depends on how you configure the boxes
[10:11] <Unarme1> what do i do?
[10:11] <slacker_nl> amorphous_: ssh is not insecure (its supposed to be secure shell )
[10:11] <Jetfighter> Hailtech: Will I have more space after installing to HDD?
[10:11] <wolferine> or is gksu a link to gksudo ?
[10:11] <amorphous_> i just apt-getted it - dissabled root login, and passwd -l root-ed
[10:11] <lisapc> Flannel, I see root on left side, but when I click on it, i only see Desktop
[10:11] <Halitech> Jetfighter - depends on  your system but no more then an hour and no, it won't free up space, it will need at least 10 gig to install and allow you room to install your apps
[10:12] <Jetfighter> I got one 55 gig partition..
[10:12] <slacker_nl> amorphous_: you should have no problems then (unless users use weak passwords)
[10:12] <Halitech> jetfighter - do you want to keep windows as well?
[10:12] <bruenig> wolferine, gksudo is a link to gksu, do file /usr/bin/gksudo
[10:12] <slacker_nl> but if they cannot become root - its only that user that is impacted
[10:12] <Septim> Hi all...:)
[10:12] <Jetfighter> Will I lose my files that I have? And no, I got this to run away from Windows and Mac
[10:12] <vox754> Chesney: join #vocx
[10:12] <lisapc> does anyone know how I can get nautilus to access my root folders pleae?
[10:13] <Flannel> slacker_nl: riht, but it's the only user that they know the username for.  Everything else, they have to figure out user and pass.
[10:13] <Halitech> jetfighter - if you tell ubuntu to use the entire drive then yes, it will delete everything on the drive
[10:13] <Flannel> oh, er, you knew that
[10:13] <Jetfighter> Time to have install fun >.<
[10:13] <amorphous_> the week password can only open up a locked down epiphany in the gui - don't know how to lock out command line stuff without locking myself out!!
[10:13] <slacker_nl> Flannel: sorry?
[10:13] <soundray> lisapc: will you take it from me?
[10:13] <wolferine> why would something with more characters be a link to something with less characters?
[10:13] <Unarme1> dangit
[10:13] <Jetfighter> Hailtech: You misunderstand me. If I downloaded stuff using LiveCD, will install erase that?
[10:13] <lisapc> soundray, take what?
[10:14] <soundray> lisapc: an answerr
[10:14] <Nalleman> Dear all, I would be very glad if some of you could take som time and proofread a coverletter I'm writing. If you are interested, please give me a private message. I would really appreciate it. Sincerely
[10:14] <Flannel> wolferine: because gksudo was being used, and then the two merged
[10:14] <lisapc> soundray, yes! i cant get nauiituls to read root folders
[10:14] <Halitech> Jetfighter, anything that is on the hard drive it will erase. anything you "save" on the livecd will be gone as well
[10:14] <wolferine> merged?
[10:14] <Jetfighter> Ok, good
[10:15] <soundray> lisapc: I was just wondering, because you called me a troll the other day. Anyway, if you run 'gksudo nautilus', you should be able to access any folder on the system.
[10:15] <Jetfighter> I'll be back after install is complete then :D
[10:15] <Halitech> Jetfighter - good luck
[10:15] <kclod> Tentativo fallito di lanciare il demone audio JACK. L'audio sar disattivato. qualcuno sa cosa vuol dire? grazie
[10:15] <lisapc> soundray, it wasnt. but I chose to show hidden files, and now it does :)
[10:15] <Jetfighter> Thanks.
[10:15] <Flannel> wolferine: gksudo and gksu became one, so to preserve compatability (with scripts that use gksudo), you remove it and symlink it, since they do the same thing
[10:15] <lisapc> soundray, btw, do you have any ideas how I can get ubuntu to use my NVidia 7300 video card?
[10:16] <Jetfighter> It's making pissy scratchy sounds and doing nothing
[10:16] <nightrid3r> !it | kclod
[10:16] <wolferine> still doesnt explain why its more characters
[10:16] <ubotu> kclod: Vai su #ubuntu-it o su #kubuntu-it se vuoi parlare in italiano, in questo canale usiamo solo l'inglese. Grazie!
[10:16] <wolferine> and why isnt it just su
[10:16] <amorphous_> slacker_nl, am working on it though. got involved just because i wanted to get him off windows... think i bit off quite a bit. have to keep my paying work going - and i'm just an amature hacker. silly thing to get involved in, but good for character building lol
[10:16] <kclod> scusa non sapevo
[10:16] <soundray> lisapc: I take it you've read the wiki advice for nvidia?
[10:16] <Flannel> wolferine: #ubuntu-offtopic, I'll explain it again
[10:16] <slacker_nl> amorphous_: that's the spirit!
[10:16] <wolferine> no thanks
[10:16] <lisapc> soundray, no! wheres that?
[10:16] <slacker_nl> amorphous_: i'm converting users as well ;)
[10:16] <kclod> a presto
[10:17] <soundray> !nvidia > lisapc, read ubotu's pm
[10:17] <lisapc> where is xorg file located?

[10:17] <DisabledBobcat> Can someone help me get eboard compiled? Whenever I do a ./configure it tells me no suitable c++ compiler is found
[10:17] <omegacenti_> Okay my CDrom is taking forever to read my cdroms, might anyone be able to help me check why?
[10:17] <PriceChild> DisabledBobcat, sudo apt-get install build-essential

[10:18] <lerox> #newbies
[10:18] <Halitech> Jetfighter - what do you mean sounds?
[10:18] <lisapc> it says Section "Device"
[10:18] <lisapc> 	Identifier	"NVIDIA Corporation NVIDIA Default Card", does this mean Ubuntu automatifcally installed my proper Nvida drivers?
[10:18] <omegacenti_> PriceChild: Error "I/O error" while copying "/media/cd...music.mpq".
[10:19] <Jetfighter> As in, reading disk kindasounds, its going
[10:19] <Halitech> Jetfighter - okay, I've noticed it does seem to take a bit to get it going
[10:19] <Jetfighter> Gotta hit install now :(
[10:19] <PriceChild> lisapc, ubuntu only installs the open source "nv" drivers
[10:19] <bigfuzzyjesus> ##buildabrain
[10:20] <IndyGunFreak> #ubuntuslostsoul
[10:20] <omegacenti_> PriceChild: Its making really weird sounds trying to copy this thing.
[10:20] <Jetfighter> 5% done
[10:20] <Jetfighter> Fifteen*
[10:20] <TechSalvager> !nvidia
[10:20] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[10:20] <Jetfighter> Hey, gool, I cantalk here while it goes
[10:20] <goetiaoccultus> !7.04
[10:21] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about 7.04 - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[10:21] <goetiaoccultus> lol when is 7.04 being released
[10:21] <Halitech> 7.04 should be released in April
[10:21] <omegacenti_> PriceChild: I'm going to try an audio CD
[10:21] <goetiaoccultus> k cool
[10:21] <lisapc> PriceChild, so i need to install the proper Nvidia drivers also?
[10:21] <robbie_crash> So now when I try and log in it says "User's $HOME/.dmrc file is being ignored. This prevents the session from being saved. File should be owned by user and have 644 permissions. User's $HOME directory must be owned by user and not writable by other users." But the permissions say that it's owned by me, that I have read/write access and that other users have none
[10:21] <PriceChild> lisapc, don't "need" to :)
[10:22] <lisapc> PriceChild,  so I follow the instructions on https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto ?
[10:22] <lisapc> PriceChild,  dont need to what?
[10:22] <PriceChild> robbie_crash, chmod 644 ~/.dmrc
[10:22] <robbie_crash> thanks
[10:22] <PriceChild> lisapc, if you want acceleration, you need to isntall it... but you don't "need" to, you just want to :)
[10:22] <Jetfighter> Hailtech
[10:22] <PriceChild> lisapc, yeah that guide's good
[10:23] <ant_> PriceChild's knockin em down as soon as they get up.
[10:23] <omegacenti_> PriceChild: System of a down --> Hypnotize on retail CD works.  Any suggestions?
[10:23] <PriceChild> ant_, ?
[10:23] <Halitech> Jetfighter - yo?
[10:23] <PriceChild> omegacenti_, Those I/O errors mean soemthing bigger is at play... but I know nothing :)
[10:23] <ant_> your taking care of business, helping 3, 4, 6 people at once..
[10:24] <PriceChild> ant_, Someone has to.
[10:24] <lisapc> PriceChild, how can I safeguard myself in case ubuntu X doesnt load after I install the nvida drivers?
[10:24] <PriceChild> !xconfig | lisapc
[10:24] <ubotu> lisapc: To reconfigure your X server, open a console and type  sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg  - To configure only the driver and resolution, type  sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg -phigh  - See also !FixRes
[10:24] <soundray> omegacenti_: it's possible that your drive has collected some dust
[10:24] <PriceChild> lisapc, write that second command down
[10:24] <ant_> nonetheless, its cool
[10:24] <Unarme1> help me. when i make the files for the ralink driver it says "/lib/modules/2.6.15-26/powerpc/build: no such file/directory

[10:24] <DisabledBobcat> Is there a way to update my GTK+ using apt?
[10:24] <omegacenti_> soundray: Other CD's work though, that rules out a systemic problem...
[10:24] <PriceChild> lisapc, It will redo your xorg.conf if you mess it up  :)
[10:24] <Unarme1> need help
[10:24] <omegacenti_> soundray: about dust I mean.
[10:24] <LordOfHeat> anyone knows how to remove someone from block at gaim? :)
[10:24] <PriceChild> Unarme1, why are you building it?
[10:25] <lisapc> PriceChild, so if it messes up, ubuntu will still load?
[10:25] <Unarme1> because it said to...?
[10:25] <salty> can someone tell me what is the minimal install to use my hp 460 printer?
[10:25] <PriceChild> lisapc, ubuntu will always load...
[10:25] <Unarme1> is that the wrong thing to do?
[10:25] <PriceChild> lisapc, that second command will redo your xorg.conf if you mess that up
[10:25] <PriceChild> lisapc, ctrl+alt+f1 gets you to a terminal
[10:25] <robbie_crash> PriceChild: still same error on login
[10:25] <lisapc> PriceChild, so i type sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg -phigh ?
[10:25] <Jetfighter> Does having this Linux OS mean that I can host my website from my computer?
[10:25] <PriceChild> lisapc, log in... type that command then "sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart" and you have your gui back :)
[10:25] <robbie_crash> Jetfighter: if you install a webserver
[10:25] <AlexC_> Jetfighter: yes, you could also have done it from a Windows or Mac OS
[10:25] <Unarme1> nevermind
[10:26] <ant_> i wish i could help, but i'm learning myself
[10:26] <Jetfighter> Wouldn't it be easier on here though?
[10:26] <lisapc> PriceChild, so it messes up and ubuntu doeant load anymore. I run Ubuntu and press ctr+alt+f1 and type sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg -phigh in a terminal;?
[10:26] <AlexC_> Jetfighter: yes, I would say so.
[10:26] <PriceChild> lisapc, yes, then "sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart" to get X to restart

[10:27] <salty> ravi have ya tried nautilus?
[10:27] <LordOfHeat> anyone knows how to remove someone from block at gaim? :)

[10:33] <lisapc> PriceChild,  does it include all security updates etc?
[10:33] <hcook> is there a package someplace in the repos for the "normal" bittorrent client (that is, the one from bittorrent.com)?
[10:33] <PriceChild> lisapc, that looks perfect :) Even if it is all over the place :P
[10:33] <lisapc> PriceChild,  ok thanks :)
[10:33] <lisapc> brb
[10:33] <PriceChild> lisapc, if something isn't right it'll shout at you
[10:33] <salty> ravi i'm looking in my code book...hold on
[10:33] <Jetfighter> lol @all over the place
[10:33] <hcook> or should i just install from their .deb?
[10:33] <hcook> or is there some reason why i shouldn't use that client?

[10:35] <ravi> anyone figure out how to get ATI Radeon 9200 working on Edgy? I have been having trouble for a month now.
[10:35] <robbie_crash> hcoook it's just a basic client, I never used it because it didn't offer any of the options that the other clients do

[10:35] <Jetfighter> robie_crash,I think you need 666 or 777 CHMOD.
[10:36] <PriceChild> Jetfighter, best not to 666 it ;)
[10:36] <PriceChild> Jetfighter, and also 777 leaves you "too" open
[10:36] <Jetfighter> idk >.<
[10:36] <lisapc> PriceChild, it shouted at me :(  it says 4 lines of W: Duplicate sources.list entry http://security.ubuntu.com edgy-security/restricted Packages (/var/lib/apt/lists/security.ubuntu.com_ubunu_dists_edgy-security_restricted_binary-i386_Packages)
[10:36] <Jetfighter> 646?
[10:36] <mjr> ravi, I'd have just not installed the proprietary ones
[10:36] <Halitech> 644
[10:36] <PriceChild> lisapc, don't worry... that's just a grumble. Carry on and we'll fix that later
[10:37] <lisapc> PriceChild,  can u pls tell me what lines need fixing?  besides you said it was perfect :P heh

[10:37] <alex22> whats the command line command to rar something
[10:37] <PriceChild> robbie_crash, wait a minute... you 644'd your entire home dir?

[10:38] <Parisi> Hello
[10:38] <techie_> Any suggestions
[10:38] <PriceChild> Hi Parisi
[10:38] <techie_> ?
[10:38] <Jetfighter> When it says copying files, does 100% mean it's done, or will it need to do more?
[10:38] <salty> ravi use this info...it helped me... http://smorgasbord.net/convert_video_linux
[10:38] <lisapc> can someone tell me why my sources keeps giving me dulicated errors messages:  http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/9905/
[10:38] <robbie_crash> PriceChild: I did chmod ~/.dmrc
[10:39] <robbie_crash> I think
[10:39] <alex22> IM CONNECTED TO MY SITE IN TELNET. I WANT TO RAR/TAR A FOLDER
[10:39] <robbie_crash> : /
[10:39] <PriceChild> lisapc, you could just replace it with a "clean" sources.list ?
[10:39] <alex22> whats the command to do so
[10:39] <preaction> Jetfighter: when you're doing filesystem operations, it's probably best to not click cancel unless you actually want to cancel
[10:39] <Doomedelite> jetfighter: 100% means it's done, but it might do some cleanup things afterwards, so just let it do it's stuff :P
[10:39] <lisapc> PriceChild,  where can I get a clean sources for Edgy?
[10:39] <PriceChild> alex22, tar -cvvf foo.tar foo/
[10:39] <Parisi> Can somebody help me setup my audio on Ubuntu 6.10 ? I have a Ace ast180 running on a amd x2 cpu, lspci shows this: 00:05.0 Audio device: nVidia Corporation Unknown device 03f0 (rev a2)
[10:39] <PriceChild> !sourceomatic | lisapc
[10:39] <ubotu> lisapc: source-o-matic is a webpage where you can (re)generate your sources.list - http://www.ubuntu-nl.org/source-o-matic
[10:39] <Jetfighter> At lrast doom is smart
[10:39] <lisapc> PriceChild,  does that include universe etc?
[10:39] <ant_> alex22 L the command is "man tar"
[10:40] <Doomedelite> :P
[10:40] <PriceChild> lisapc, everything :)
[10:40] <Jetfighter> So 74 % would be almost done?
[10:40] <Doomedelite> 74% would be ~3/4 done
[10:40] <Doomedelite> :P
[10:40] <PriceChild> lisapc, as i said earlier, that's just a grumble. It can carry on with the duplicates.
[10:40] <Jetfighter> Which is close enough for me :P
[10:40] <techie_> Any recommendations for any other sound recorder programs besides the "Sound Recorder" used in Ubuntu?
[10:40] <Jetfighter> So this is Linux, like Red Hat and SUSE are?
[10:40] <Doomedelite> techie_: Audacity
[10:40] <lisapc> PriceChild, im a percectionist :)
[10:41] <Doomedelite> This is linux, like Debian.
thanks. I will give that a try.
[10:41] <Jetfighter> Whats that?
[10:41] <preaction> Jetfighter: This is a GNU/Linux operating system, yes.
[10:41] <cindir> can anyone help with running 32 bit programs in 64 bit
[10:41] <ravi> jetfighter, yes, but with a much better package management system
[10:41] <Doomedelite> I can't really explain the differences between debian and other distros, but it's the best.
[10:42] <Jetfighter> Go would lke...*Pulls random idea out* % How's my lovemaking make it say Unmatched'.
[10:42] <Doomedelite> Jetfighter: You need to get laid
[10:42] <ravi> SuSE and RedHat use RPM-based package management which have known to be going down-hill in the past few years.
[10:42] <Doomedelite> Jetfighter: Otherwise you get an undefined error
[10:42] <Jetfighter> Dude
[10:42] <Doomedelite> =)
[10:42] <PriceChild> Doomedelite, not in here thanks.
[10:43] <shatrat> ravi, rpm has always been harsh, its not getting worse everyone else is getting better, apt and portage and such.
[10:43] <vox754> ravi: can you imagine Ubuntu being done Red Hat-based.
[10:43] <[BTF] Chm0d> using dual monitors what setting do I need to put in my xorg.conf to keep the applications from spanning both monitors?
[10:43] <ravi> anyone else sick of waiting for 2 hours for dependencies to resolve during an update?
[10:43] <Halitech> Jetfighter - Linux is just the kernel or core of the OS. Redhat, Suse, Debian and oterhs are distrobutions or a collection of software designed to work with the kernel so you can actually do something

[10:44] <Jetfighter> :P*
[10:44] <ravi> shatrat, it's not getting worse but as the world around it grows, the flaws in the design of RPM have emerged such as it's inability to work efficiently for an arbitrarily large RPM package bases when compared to other package management systems.

Setting the linux drive to "slave" makes linux unbootable. I want windows to be the master drive, linux slave, and I want to cho
[10:45] <madsrh> How do I disable logon when returning from standby?
[10:45] <Jetfighter> Lmao shitrat
[10:45] <robbie_crash> hcook when I used the bittorrent client from  bittorrent.com it was years ago, it gave me no options to change speeds or what files were being downloaded or anything, I hated it so I moved to Azureus which does all the stuff you're asking about
[10:45] <Jetfighter> shatrat* S'cuse me there :P
[10:45] <tommy12796> whats the irc command to view all channels
[10:45] <Doomedelite> Just to learn a bunch of stuff
[10:45] <AlexC_> tommy12796: how is that a Ubuntu question?
[10:45] <Jetfighter> Uhhhhh /list?
[10:45] <tommy12796> i'm using an ubuntu irc client
[10:45] <shatrat> Ltar, master and slave has nothing to do with booting
[10:45] <ravi> tommy, use xchat
[10:46] <Jetfighter> 95%, and I think its cleaning up now
[10:46] <Jetfighter> So im gonna run away for a bit soon
[10:46] <hcook> robbie_crash: oh, well they must have improved it...i've got it on my other box (which runs gentoo) and it's great
[10:46] <Ltar> shatrat: if either drive is set to "slave" in the jumpers, it won't boot
[10:46] <shatrat> Ltar, what you need is to have grub on whatever drive is first in the boot order, and use grub to chooose linux or windows at boot
[10:46] <AlexC_> tommy12796: so? It's not Ubuntu related. xChat runs on pretty much every Linux distro, and Windows. The fact you are using Ubuntu does not make it a Ubuntu support question.
[10:46] <Comrade-Sergei> whats a normal download speed on a 256k DSL line?
[10:46] <vox754> Ltar: give more info about your motherboard, and harddrives, how old are they?
[10:46] <HymnToLife> xChat runs on pretty much every Linux distro, and Windows <= and others, too :p
[10:46] <PriceChild> Comrade-Sergei, depends on many conditions
[10:46] <shatrat> Ltar, just use cable select? master and slave is just for the IDE bus, it doesnt really affect anything outside of how to two drives communicate with the motehrboard
[10:46] <tommy12796> i'm using konversation
[10:47] <hollywoodb> I notice that firefox UI fonts are different from gnome and every other gtk2 app in edgy, am I missing something that would cause that?

[10:47] <arrummzen> How do I upgrade a package and ALL the packages it depends on to the latest version?
[10:47] <Ltar> vox: the computer is vintage 2000, Asus mobo... i'd have to find the box to tell you more. both HDDs are EIDE, western digitals.
[10:47] <Halitech> Comreade-Sergei - if you get 80% of your rated speed it's acceptable
[10:47] <AlexC_> tommy12796: that still, doesn't make it a Ubuntu question =)
[10:47] <Comrade-Sergei> PriceChild im debateing calling my ISP cause mines rinning like 30kbps...
[10:47] <uproot> what do people think of linspire ?. is it widely used ?
[10:47] <vox754> HymnToLife: correct me if I'm wrong but I think xchat costs money on Windows.
[10:47] <btrento> Could someone direct me to the best forum for xgl on dapper drake.  I have googled around but I am not sure which one I should follow also should I be doing aiglx or xgl/compiz.  What is the difference
[10:47] <robbie_crash> hcook I dunno, like I said, I don't use it, I just use azureus
[10:47] <omegacenti_> Alright, I am in media/ and I have something that is cdrom(lightblue) and cdrom0(blue). What is the difference if I only have 1 cdrom drive?
[10:47] <Ltar> shatrat: what is cable select?
[10:47] <HymnToLife> vox754, ou are wrong :)
[10:47] <Comrade-Sergei> Halitech hows 30 of 256k sound?

[10:48] <tanlaan> Hello everyone, I have a question about printing.
[10:48] <preaction> Comrade-Sergei: look up what kilobits per second means and you'll have your answer
[10:48] <robbie_crash> Ltar: Csel makes your bios decide which drive is master/slave depending on which end of the ide cable it's plugged into
[10:48] <robbie_crash> grey/black
[10:48] <Halitech> Comrade-Sergei - sounds pretty low to me. does your provider have a speed test site you can confirm it with?
[10:48] <shatrat> Ltar, well most drives have another jumper setting that just lets the drives work out who is gonna be master and slave between themselves.  like DHCP for paralell ATA kinda, but not at all really. Im terrible at explainging things
[10:48] <vox754> HymnToLife: okay, that is what I read somewhere.
[10:48] <Comrade-Sergei> preaction i know i am net + cert
[10:48] <cindir> I'm trying to get firefox32 working on 64bit computer so i can have flash support but upon executing the program in a terminal it produces an error and fails to execute the program i can show the error message upon request
[10:48] <Comrade-Sergei> Halitech well im kinda out of dsl range
[10:49] <shatrat> Ltar, the important thing is once both drives are set up and working all you should neeed to do to boot different ones is choose the appropriate entry in Grub
[10:49] <omegacenti_> Alright, I am in media/ and I have something that is cdrom(lightblue) and cdrom0(blue). What is the difference if I only have 1 cdrom drive?
[10:49] <Halitech> Comrade-sergei - if you are out of dsl range then how are you getting it?
[10:49] <tanlaan> My printer seems to be printing much slower than usual*under linux, i usually print under windows*. Normally it prints really fast if its just black and white *text* rather than slow for color*images*. If I change the settings under Printout Mode to Normal Greyscale, will that tell the printer that it is only printing black and white and may help with speed?
[10:49] <Halitech> and what good wold it to do to call them?
[10:49] <vox754> Comrade-Sergei: divide 256kbps by 8, that is your speed in KB/s
[10:50] <preaction> Comrade-Sergei: somehow i doubt that. your idea of "30" is probably in kB/s, your idea of 256 is probably kbps, 30 kB * 8 bits in a Byte = 240kbps

[10:50] <crdlb> tanlaan, what printer is it?

[10:50] <AlexC_> !sudo | ofn
[10:50] <ubotu> ofn: sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for all information.

[10:50] <omegacenti_>  lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root        6 2007-01-20 06:50 cdrom -> cdrom0 What does this mean?
[10:51] <ofn> i did run it with sudo
[10:51] <Ltar> shatrat: I'll need to install grub on the windows drive, then? I've messed with grub a little, before, trying to get this computer to work, and I had some adventures with how windows was installed (idiotically).
[10:51] <Comrade-Sergei> preaction  yes sorry i read it wrong this is not my machine
[10:51] <omegacenti_> the cdrom -> cdrom0 thing?
[10:51] <Comrade-Sergei> preaction free cert for me haha!
[10:51] <Halitech> Comrade-sergei - I would suggest you confirm the speeds cause if you arent supposed to have it and you call, they will probably disconnect it
[10:51] <Comrade-Sergei> preaction otherwise i think its like $300
[10:51] <tanlaan> crdlb: hmm, well I think I'm gonna try the greyscale option and see if it helps
[10:51] <preaction> Comrade-Sergei: obviously you get what you pay for
[10:51] <ofn> AlexC, i did run it with sudo....
[10:51] <shatrat> Ltar, it's best to have grub on the windows drive in my experience cause otherwise you have to do some fiddling with it's entry in the menu.lst for grub,  windows throws a fit if its not on the first drive in the boot order
[10:51] <Comrade-Sergei> lol
[10:52] <robbie_crash> haha preaction
[10:52] <AlexC_> ofn hm weird,
[10:52] <Comrade-Sergei> preaction well im net+ a+ and im getting ready for the CCNA
[10:52] <AlexC_> ofn I would like to help but I've gotta pop off now, hope you get it fixed!
[10:52] <AlexC_> Bye all!
[10:52] <Jetfighter> Ok, I installed it, no live CD shit
[10:52] <shatrat> Ltar, but if you already have grub on the linux drive, you can set that drive to be first boot device in your BIOS and then edit grubs menu to include a windows entry
[10:52] <Ltar> shatrat: yeah, I had messed with that, remapping hd0, hd1 and hd1, hd0 in grub, then a chainloader+1 command
[10:52] <ofn> AlexC, okay, thanks anyway
[10:52] <preaction> Comrade-Sergei: good rule of thumb: most software reports Bytes, most providers report Bits (because it makes a bigger number)
[10:52] <robbie_crash> a+ sure is useful
[10:53] <Comrade-Sergei> lol yea
[10:53] <shatrat> Ltar, yeah, if grub is on the windows drive you don't have to remap.  That's how I have it but you should be able to get it going eithe rway
[10:53] <Jetfighter> Some favor please?
[10:53] <tanlaan> crdlb: oh, actually when you hit print and it brings up the prompt goto configure and click grayscale *it helps a lot!*
[10:53] <Jetfighter> Java link thing please?
[10:53] <RoboSheep> I'm having trouble with my eth0 and wlan0, it might be two separate problems, they maybe related.  Eth0 is found but unusable it shows data transmitting (sent and receive) but is not displayed no matter which program I use.  wlan0's connection simply dies every so often and the settings need to be reconfrimed in Networking.  When this happens my eth0 has been enabled for some reason.

[10:54] <ravi> Sata is a great drive interface :-)
[10:54] <shatrat> Ltar, well if there is a problem when both drives are plugged in Im assuming it is a jumper problem.  I dont suppose you have a free IDE channel so you can just have them both on their own?
[10:55] <ravi> yay, I will worship Sata as Windows XP Install CD says!

[10:55] <LordOfHeat> how to make ntfs partitions wriitable?
[10:55] <vox754> Ltar: During install Linux does its best to detect other plugged drives so I assume you somehow install both OSes on their individual disks, which in my opinion is a bad idea.
[10:55] <LordOfHeat> writable*
[10:55] <Ltar> shatrat: I think I do, there's an extra IDE plug coming off the floppy drive that I could use. is the conflict coming from both drives being on the same cable, with no way to tell who from what?

[10:57] <uproot> ive always used it for burning iso's when i ran windows. but i never saw the point in evluating it if i was to switch to another os anyways lol
[10:57] <shatrat> Ltar, floppy is a different bus, you cant plug it into that one.  If you have two drives on one parallel IDE cable one needs to be master and one slave. Try fiddling with the jumpers till you can see both in the bios at the same time.
[10:57] <chris2077> is there
[10:57] <robbie_crash> aorthr33: root is what group I'm part of, but I'm not sure if that's default or if I bunged something up
[10:57] <vox754> Ltar: I'm sure it is not that hard. Just make the windows drive master, and install grub on it.
[10:58] <chris2077> what is the compatability like with an openoffice db and filemakerpro? im doing a project at school with filemaker and wondering what my linux options are

[11:00] <gubluntu> R666OOT: i want to know when i need to update things amostly
[11:00] <robbie_crash> aorthr33: I'm always asked for my password when I sudo anything

[11:01] <R666OOT> gubluntu, personally I install "cron-apt" which does a check daily for packages
[11:01] <robbie_crash> That's what I thought Halitech, but aorthr33 was making it sound like not
[11:01] <vox754> Ltar: Grub can boot Windows, yes. You need to add a few line to the "/boot/grub/menu.lst"
 then its wrong password?
[11:01] <gubluntu> R666OOT: does it auto install?
[11:01] <Halitech> robbie_crash - okay, just confirming
[11:01] <R666OOT> gubluntu, i beleive you can tell it to.. i don't tell it to though

[11:19] <cafuego_> DeL3e7: Or, sed -i "s/^desc://g" textfile
[11:19] <chris2077> Robby: pretty sure my ubuntu supported that card straight off
[11:19] <robbie_cras1> I can't log in because I don't have permission to create ~/gnome2
[11:19] <|pr3vi0uz|> whats  up everyone
[11:19] <robbie_cras1> How can I fix this?
[11:19] <Robby> vox754: do you know where i can get a complete walkthru for a toshiba satalite m105?
[11:19] <cafuego_> DeL3e7: that will remove "desc:" from the start of each line
[11:19] <DeL3e7> well the desc: part is different per line
[11:19] <PriceChild> madsrh, beryl is not for beginners, support in #ubuntu-effects /etc/apt/sources.list

[11:20] <vox754> Robby: I'm not sure. I think my parents have one Satellite each, but I've never attempted installing Ubuntu.
[11:20] <mlalkaka> Are there any Ubuntu debs for OpenOffice.org 2.1.0, or even 2.0.4 that actually works?
[11:20] <cafuego_> DeL3e7: awk -F ':' '{print $2}' < inputfile > outputfile

[11:20] <PriceChild> mlalkaka, why don't the repository ones work?
[11:20] <chris2077> i love the starsky and hutch beryl theme
[11:20] <PriceChild> waseem, doesn't it work by default?
[11:20] <waseem> pricechild: no
[11:21] <Ltar> arg...  I've got both HDD's plugged in, linux is master- but I can't mount the windows drive. attempting to mount it with mount -t ntfs /dev/hdb /media/windows makes it so I can't browse the drive in file browser
[11:21] <shatrat> waseem, depends on what model it is
[11:21] <mojo> k31th: https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/flashplugin-nonfree/+bug/29760  talks about it and why ... there are some workarounds mentioned in there and the comments
[11:21] <waseem> shatrat: radeon 9600 agp 4x/8x
[11:21] <DeL3e7> wow cafuego your so smart
[11:21] <cafuego_> liar
[11:21] <Ltar> I had the windows drive mounted in /media/windows before I reinstalled windows on it, and I was able to browse it openly in linux, so that I could back things up.
[11:21] <|pr3vi0uz|> whats the command for showing what version of ubuntu im running ?
[11:21] <waseem> whenever i try to run a game it says xlib: extension "GLX" missing on display
[11:22] <PriceChild> |pr3vi0uz|, lsb_release -r
[11:22] <shatrat> waseem, I see.  Does "glxinfo | grep rendering" say no? If so you might want to try installing the proprietary ATI driver, although its kind of crap
[11:22] <|pr3vi0uz|> tty pricechild
[11:22] <Jetfighter> help
[11:22] <mlalkaka> PriceChild: they do, mostly. but some things don't work. For example, the form wizard won't open up when you select it from Base. it doesn't even display an error message or anything. apparently, from what i found out right now at #openoffice.org, this is because the version of OOo in ubuntu edgy is compiled against gcj, instead of sun-java.
[11:22] <tont> i have a cpu dual core..how can to verify that they work the two cpu?
[11:22] <Robby> does anybody know of a complete handbook or walkthru for a toshiba satalite m105
[11:22] <bipolar> waseem: you're missing 3D acceleration on your video card
[11:22] <LadyNikon> Robby: walk through of what?
[11:22] <PriceChild> mlalkaka, yeah that's correct :(
[11:22] <DeL3e7> cafuego_,  your seriously awesome
[11:22] <waseem> it says that its missing on display ":0.0"
[11:22] <matkix0s> Anyone around here willing to help me setup dual monitors on an nvidia 6200 gc?
[11:22] <Ninjai> isn`t there a replacement for that slow repository...to install nvidia drivers
[11:22] <Robby> complete install
[11:22] <Jetfighter> i open a linux.sh file, it opens in text editor...how it run program?????
[11:22] <cafuego_> still a liar, plus using the "a" word costs $2.
[11:22] <waseem> bipolar: how do i activate 3d accn
[11:22] <arooni> is there anyweay to remember ssh server addresses + usernames _+ passwords
[11:22] <tont> i have a cpu dual core..how can to verify that they work the two cpu?
[11:22] <Nemes> How can I compute the MD5 digest of a string (through a terminal)?
[11:22] <shatrat> !ati | waseem  try installing the fglrx driver
[11:22] <ubotu> waseem  try installing the fglrx driver: To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[11:22] <LadyNikon> hmm
[11:23] <PriceChild> tont, "top" should show both
[11:23] <LadyNikon> stick the disk in? it pretty much does everything itself
[11:23] <mlalkaka> PriceChild: but i guess now that sun-java is free, this won't be a problem in feisty fawn?
[11:23] <PriceChild> mlalkaka, I'll just test it for you ;)
[11:23] <robbie_cras1> How can I change permissions on my home dir so that I can log in and create ~/gnome2
[11:23] <mlalkaka> PriceChild: thanks
[11:23] <matkix0s> Anyone willing to lend a quick hand?

[11:24] <Nemes> matkix0s: just ask.
[11:24] <LadyNikon> ask your question.. dont ask can you have help
[11:24] <Robby> LadyNikon: so it will install everything i need so i can still be online after install is complete?
[11:24] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about antibe - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi

[11:24] <robbie_cras1> *!anyone | matkix0s
[11:24] <Robby> LadyNikon: ok thnx in advance
[11:24] <LadyNikon> Robby: if you run the live cd and install
[11:24] <Ltar> arg...  I've got both HDD's plugged in, linux is master- but I can't mount the windows drive. attempting to mount it with mount -t ntfs /dev/hdb /media/windows makes the drive unbrowseable.

[11:24] <tont> PriceChild: thanks..
[11:24] <LadyNikon> from there
[11:24] <matkix0s> I've got a 6200 nvidia looking to setup dual monitors.
[11:24] <mlalkaka> PriceChild: with what version? repository packages or third-party?
[11:25] <Robby> from where?
[11:25] <PriceChild> |pr3vi0uz|, its annoying... but its possible to get further, I can't remember how though sorry
[11:25] <matkix0s> I've done it on cent, but need help on this os.
[11:25] <PriceChild> mlalkaka, that's on feisty
[11:25] <n-iCe> sudp apt-get install install sun-java5-jre
[11:25] <mlalkaka> PriceChild: oh
[11:25] <Nemes> vox754: Thanks.
[11:25] <n-iCe> isn't working
[11:25] <Jetfighter> how can a linux.sh file run a program?
[11:25] <PriceChild> mlalkaka, not sure about how to fix it on edgy
[11:25] <n-iCe> sudp apt-get install sun-java5-jre
[11:25] <PriceChild> Jetfighter, ./linux.sh
[11:25] <Jetfighter> ?
[11:25] <n-iCe> sudoapt-get install sun-java5-jre doesnt' work why?
[11:25] <vox754> Ltar: you may need to set a proper "/etc/fstab" so you can browse the partition.
[11:25] <mlalkaka> PriceChild: well that's good to know, since there's only about a month left for the fawn's birth
[11:25] <Robby> ladynikon: from where?
[11:25] <bipolar> !fglrx
[11:25] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[11:25] <matkix0s> So no one here has had to install an nvidia card driver?
[11:25] <waseem> im trying to download the drivers but the problem is my computer has a problem wtih installing things. its always returning some weird error
[11:26] <PriceChild> !nvidia | matkix0s
[11:26] <ubotu> matkix0s: please see above
[11:26] <bipolar> !fglrx | waseem
[11:26] <ubotu> waseem: please see above
[11:26] <Ltar> vox754: a proper what?
[11:26] <matkix0s> gotchya
[11:26] <bipolar> waseem: the drivers are in ubuntu already. you just have to install them.
[11:26] <matkix0s> One last question, has anyone ever installed kernal-devel I would really like to have it.
[11:26] <waseem> bipolar: how do i install them?
[11:26] <Robby> LadyNikon: from where?
[11:26] <LadyNikon> Robby: the livecd?
[11:27] <robbie_cras1> when trying to login, gnome crashes and gives me an error telling me it cannot create the dir ~/gnome2 or /home/robbie/gnome2 so I cannot log in, how can I fix this??
[11:27] <vox754> Ltar: the text file "/etc/fstab" lists your partitions filesystems so you can mount them correctly, this options are passed right away to the "mount" commands.
[11:27] <Robby> oh do i boot from disk or just run in in windows?
[11:27] <Evil_`> Anyone know why people can't see the things I put in 'htdocs' with lampp?
[11:27] <|pr3vi0uz|> pricechild would anyone know how i can change my screen resolution  because my monitor  does 1400*900
[11:27] <Robby> LadyNikon: oh do i boot from disk or just run in in windows?
[11:27] <PriceChild> |pr3vi0uz|, I don't know sorry.
[11:27] <LadyNikon> Robby: disk
[11:28] <PriceChild> |pr3vi0uz|, I guess editing your xorg.conf Maybe if you install the nvidia drivers, nvidia-settings can do ti for you
[11:28] <Robby> LadyNikon: thnx a bunch
[11:28] <erisco> I am looking for a media converter... trying to take a high quality wav and I want to convert it to ogg/mp3 etc

[11:28] <|pr3vi0uz|> man  i installed nvidia drivers last night and  it crash my xserver
[11:28] <Jetfighter> How do I run a linux.sh file as an app?
[11:29] <omoore> i was asking about a free software cd burning software package earlier for my friend needing to burn an ubuntu image to cd. For those who care, I ran across imgburn at imgburn.com. Worked like a charm for him.
[11:29] <|pr3vi0uz|> sh linux. run
[11:29] <Jetfighter> ?
[11:29] <vox754> Ltar: what I mean is that you need to enter a line describing your NTFS file system, the partition and the mount point. Come here #vocx
[11:29] <robbie_cras1> Jetfighter: from the command line
[11:29] <robbie_cras1> go to that dir
[11:29] <Jetfighter> uhhh?
[11:29] <robbie_cras1> and type sh linux. run
[11:29] <robbie_cras1> Open a terminal window
[11:29] <koala> what is best editor for develop web pages in ubuntu edgy?
[11:29] <Comrade-Sergei> preaction i just called frontier, they said i was in fact on a 256 kbps line but offered a 1 mbps line for $39.99 lol!
[11:29] <robbie_cras1> !best
[11:29] <ubotu> Usually, there is no single "best" application to perform a given task. It's up to you to choose among a number of different applications, depending on your preferences, the features you require, and other factors.
[11:30] <Comrade-Sergei> koala screem or trellian
[11:30] <chris2077> im so glad ubuntu was my first iso download, they take forever, i got the vector beryl edition about an hour ago and imo it was a waste of a download
[11:30] <oops> if anyone could find it in their hearts to write me or redirect me to a Ralink Card installation guide for a complete newbie
[11:30] <|pr3vi0uz|> jetfigther you might need to do sudo sh linux. run
[11:30] <oops> it would be great
[11:30] <erisco> thanks robbie_cras1 :)
[11:30] <Jetfighter> I saved into desktop..
[11:30] <preaction> koala: do you want wysiwyg or text editor?
[11:30] <robbie_cras1> so open terminal
[11:30] <bimberi> !html | koala
[11:30] <ubotu> koala: html is HyperText Markup Language, used to build webpages. Editors in Ubuntu: Bluefish, Quanta+, Screem, and Nvu. For howto on HTML coding, see: http://www.w3schools.com
[11:30] <Jetfighter> I did
[11:30] <PriceChild> Jetfighter, ./linuxfile.sh will run it
[11:30] <mlalkaka> PriceChild: thanks for the help :-). cya
[11:30] <Comrade-Sergei> oops i would but thats proprietary
[11:30] <bipolar> waseem: put the error message in pastebin.ca and post the link here
[11:30] <preaction> koala: i hear bluefish is nice for wysiwyg. vim is Gods Own Text Editor
[11:31] <Jetfighter> like flename.linux.sh?
[11:31] <oops> Comrade-Sergei: huh?
[11:31] <robbie_cras1> and do cd ~/Desktop and then do ./sh <filename> run
[11:31] <piratewench> hello, im new to linux, just installed edgy and the nvidia drivers following this guide, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto/Nvidia, and i was wondering how i could verify the drivers are working, and also the resolutions listed in system > prefs > resolutions doesnt include my wide monitor's native res, help please?
[11:31] <|pr3vi0uz|> does ubuntu even support pci-express  yet ?
[11:31] <Comrade-Sergei> oops isnt that a proprietary wifi pc card?
[11:31] <tont> PriceChild: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/9918/ work the two cpu? to me it seems no..
[11:31] <robbie_cras1> er, ./sh < filename > run
[11:32] <oops> Comrade-Sergei: what do you mean by proprietary? it was supposed to be installed out of the box yes, but it's not working
[11:32] <robbie_cras1> I can't tell if that's coming through or not because gaim is being a jerk and trying to render anything in angle brackets
[11:32] <PriceChild> tont, meh... actually I don't think that command does it sorry
[11:32] <koala> wysiwyg only for design (tables, images, etc.).source code i going to write manualy  ( i'm not best designer )
[11:32] <Jetfighter> ./sh runMoparScape-linux.sh run ?
[11:32] <preaction> |pr3vi0uz|: that would be a kernel issue, and the linux kernel is usually very up-to-date
[11:32] <koala> preaction: thanks i going to test bluefish
[11:33] <preaction> koala: also, for images, inkscape is a very nice vector graphics program (when it doesn't crash, which isn't often really)
[11:33] <tont> PriceChild: ok..thanks ;)
[11:33] <Comrade-Sergei> oops its not a regiestered IEEE 802.11 spec ( ie wifi a.b.g.n)
[11:33] <emet> !beep
[11:33] <xenex60421> how do i play streams with xmms?
[11:33] <ubotu> beep: advanced pc-speaker beeper. In component universe, is optional. Version 1.2.2-18 (edgy), package size 20 kB, installed size 104 kB
[11:33] <Jetfighter> ./sh runMoparScape-linux.sh run is right???????????????????????????????????????????????????
[11:33] <emet> !beep-player
[11:33] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about beep-player - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[11:33] <|pr3vi0uz|> preaction what is the lastest kernel?
[11:33] <ardchoille> Jetfighter: no: sh file.sh
[11:33] <preaction> |pr3vi0uz|: http://kernel.org
[11:34] <emet> 2.6.20
[11:34] <robbie_cras1> is the filename runMoparScape-Linux.sh
[11:34] <Jetfighter> Yes
[11:34] <oops> Comrade-Sergei: hum so? can't get it to work? im not quite following you
[11:34] <DM|> Another question. I run a couple routers in my house, and i want to connect to a computer that is in my house from lets say work.. how would i do so.
[11:34] <piratewench> how can i verify the nvidia drivers i installed according to this guide https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto/Nvidia are working?
[11:34] <ardchoille> Jetfighter: ./sh  <-- that'll try to execute the file named 'sh'
[11:34] <chris2077> how do you get a song to play in terminatorX ?
[11:34] <Comrade-Sergei> oops it may not be supported by ubuntu, it may have a driver on their website, what brand did you say it was?
[11:34] <robbie_cras1> ./sh runMoparScape-Linux.sh
[11:35] <Comrade-Sergei> oops i assume you just need a driver
[11:35] <oops> Ralink rt2500
[11:35] <emet> ./runMoparScape-Linux.sh work too
[11:35] <oops> it IS installed out of the box
[11:35] <Jetfighter> Says no such file or directory
[11:35] <emet> do chmod +x runMoparScape-Linux.sh
[11:35] <ardchoille> robbie_cras1: you don't need the './' with sh. It's just 'sh file.sh' or ./file.sh
[11:35] <oops> yea, but thats what I need
[11:35] <ardchoille> Jetfighter: ./sh  <-- that'll try to execute the file named 'sh'
[11:35] <robbie_cras1> ardchoille: oh, thanks
[11:35] <oops> im a complete newbie and I need to redirected
[11:35] <oops> or given
[11:35] <oops> a complete guide on how to do it
[11:36] <robbie_cras1> Jetfighter: did you cd to that directory?
[11:36] <plyskin> whats the closet program like winamp?
[11:36] <oops> ah, and one that does now require a ethernet connection
[11:36] <Comrade-Sergei> oops, no  unless it is plug and play you will need some sort of driver (even if it was pnp id  still need one but its not as obvious)
[11:36] <cafuego_> xmms
[11:36] <cafuego_> plyskin: ^^
[11:36] <xenex60421> cafuego: do you know how to play streams in xmms?
[11:36] <preaction> plyskin: xmms is closest, rhythmbox is better though
[11:36] <robbie_cras1> plyskin: rhythmbox works like winamp5
[11:36] <piratewench> sudo dpkg -reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg
[11:36] <piratewench> whoops
[11:36] <plyskin> ah, using amarok now
[11:36] <robbie_cras1> but it's not skinnable like it
[11:36] <bimberi> tont, PriceChild: type 1 while top is displayed and it will show 1 line for each processor (if applicable)
[11:36] <ardchoille> robbie_cras1: I think he ran './sh file.sh' which won't work because the system can't execute the file called 'sh'
[11:36] <plyskin> its pretty cool
[11:36] <cafuego_> xenex60421: Play>Location
[11:36] <PriceChild> bimberi, thanks for that :)
[11:36] <Comrade-Sergei> oops it looks like a wireless G card good thing
[11:37] <xenex60421> cafuego: I tried that but it wouldn't work
[11:37] <|pr3vi0uz|> how hard is it to update the kernel i know i cant run in xserver so i have  to do ctrl+alt and f1  then do sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop but from that point  what do i do ?
[11:37] <bimberi> PriceChild: np :)
[11:37] <xenex60421> cafuego: I'm trying to play this URL http://www.shoutcast.com/sbin/shoutcast-playlist.pls?rn=5548&file=filename.pls
[11:37] <robbie_cras1> ardchoille: because it already knows it's looking for a .sh file so if the file were named file.sh.sh it would run but since it's already running an sh file it's just looking for filename not filename.sh?
[11:37] <Jetfighter> ok
[11:38] <robbie_cras1> *already trying to run an sh file
[11:38] <Comrade-Sergei> oops : http://home.bb-zone.com/index.php/Ralink_RT2500_Linux_Howto
[11:38] <ardchoille> robbie_cras1: ./sh file.sh  won't work because that tells the system to execute a file named 'sh', but there isn't a file named sh there.
[11:38] <Jetfighter> In my directory called Desktop, it shows runMoparScape-linux.sh  and I need to run that
[11:38] <preaction> robbie_cras1: that's not correct. "./sh file.sh" means execute a file named "sh" in the current directory with an argument "file.sh"
[11:38] <cafuego_> You got the ./ in front of the wrong part
[11:38] <robbie_cras1> ahhh, I get it
[11:38] <PriceChild> Comrade-Sergei, rt2500's are good to go in ubuntu ;)
[11:38] <ardchoille> cd Desktop && Jetfighter: sh runMoparScape-linux.sh
[11:39] <robbie_cras1> thanks ardchoille and preaction
[11:39] <DeL3e7> hey cafuego how would i go about turning that ip range list into hosts.deny format? aka add "ALL: "
[11:39] <ardchoille> Jetfighter: cd Desktop && Jetfighter: sh runMoparScape-linux.sh
[11:39] <Comrade-Sergei> PriceChild then whats his problem
[11:39] <|pr3vi0uz|> how hard is it to update the kernel i know i cant run in xserver so i have  to do ctrl+alt and f1  then do sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop but from that point  what do i do ?
[11:39] <ardchoille> ignore the second 'jetfighter'
[11:39] <cafuego_> DeL3e7: what, you have just a list of IPs now?
[11:39] <DeL3e7> yup
[11:39] <madsrh> Can I install xgl/compiz from the synaptic???
[11:39] <DeL3e7> and ranges
[11:39] <PriceChild> madsrh, > #ubuntu-effects please
[11:39] <madsrh> sorry
[11:39] <DeL3e7> or should i use iptables?
[11:39] <plyskin> I closed Amarok but the shoutcast is still playing.... how do I force it to stop?
[11:39] <robbie_cras1> Soooo, how do I change my homedir permissions so that I can log in??
[11:39] <Jetfighter> It worked, thanks
[11:39] <preaction> |pr3vi0uz|: you can update the kernel in x just fine. you just have to reboot to load the new kernel
[11:40] <ardchoille> robbie_cras1: You can't log in?
[11:40] <robbie_cras1> sudo chown robbie:robbie -R /home/robbie didn't work
[11:40] <robbie_cras1> nope
[11:40] <cafuego_> DeL3e7: sudo iptables -N CUSTOM_BLOCK for host in `cat listing`; do sudo iptables -A CUSTOM_BLOCK -s "${host}" -j DROP; done
[11:40] <Jetfighter> Oh damn
[11:40] <ardchoille> robbie_cras1: Can you get to a tty and sudo?
[11:40] <bipolar> plyskin: check your system tray. it's probbly still running.
[11:40] <cafuego_> DeL3e7: then at your leasure, route stuff via the CUSTOM_BLOCK chain.
[11:41] <DeL3e7> whoah
[11:41] <plyskin> bipolar: nope its not
[11:41] <plyskin> first thing I checked
[11:41] <jessica> hmmm
[11:41] <robbie_cras1> ardchoille: when I try it says: unable to create ~/.gnome2 : permission denied
[11:41] <|pr3vi0uz|> ok question preaction   i extracted from .bz2 to deaktop how would i apply this
[11:41] <ardchoille> robbie_cras1: Ouch
[11:42] <Jetfighter> wtf?
[11:42] <preaction> |pr3vi0uz|: you have to compile it. why are you doing this?
[11:42] <robbie_cras1> ardchoille: I can get to a terminal and login and run fine from there, but logging in under gdm doesn't work
[11:42] <ardchoille> robbie_cras1: ls -la ~/.*authority   <-- see if either of those files is owned by root
[11:42] <gubluntu> how do i block someone from spamming me with attemps to login over ssh?
[11:42] <waseem> ive done everything i can to make this video card work, but im not really familiar with linux. can anyone help me step-by-step?
[11:42] <DeL3e7> heh
[11:43] <DeL3e7> whoopz
[11:43] <robbie_cras1> ardchoille: no such file or dir
[11:43] <|pr3vi0uz|> cause i wanna  install  the nvidia drivers  but i tried last night  and  it didnt work  because the kernel wasn't uptodate
[11:43] <DeL3e7> list too long
[11:43] <preaction> |pr3vi0uz|: and where did you get these nvidia drivers from?
[11:43] <LjL> gubluntu: if they're always from the same address, add that to /etc/hosts.deny i suppose
[11:43] <|pr3vi0uz|> nividia  website
[11:43] <|pr3vi0uz|> typo
[11:43] <shatrat> |pr3vi0uz|, sounds to me like you just didnt hve the kernel headers and source packages installed
[11:43] <DeL3e7> guess hosts.dney is my only option
[11:43] <ardchoille> robbie_cras1: Not what I suspected, then.
[11:44] <matkix0s> I'm aware there is some command you can use to enable dual monitors... can anyone link me to a site with that info?
[11:44] <preaction> |pr3vi0uz|: it's nice to put my name in front when you're talking to me. also, why not use the nvidia driver in the repositories?
[11:44] <LjL> !dualhead > matkix0s    (matkix0s, see the private message from Ubotu)
[11:44] <preaction> !nvidia | |pr3vi0uz|
[11:44] <ubotu> |pr3vi0uz|: To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[11:44] <|pr3vi0uz|> sorry preaction
[11:44] <Halitech> gubluntu - change the port ssh is running on in your router (if you have one) then port forward it
[11:44] <bipolar> waseem: you said the ati drivers (fglrx) were interfering with the nvidia drivers. how did the nvidia drivers get installed? you need to provide more details.
[11:44] <cafuego_> You're probably after xinerama, which is not a command.
[11:44] <shatrat> |pr3vi0uz|, http://doc.gwos.org/index.php/Latest_Nvidia_Edgy#METHOD_2  to install the latest drivers manualy
[11:45] <waseem> bipolar: i installed the nvidia drivers a while ago when i used to have them, then i replaced it with a new radeon video card that i bought a while ago
[11:45] <arooni> can i get yahoo widgets on my ubuntu linux?

[11:56] <octoberdan> I was told I could upgrade from debian to ubuntu by changing my sources.list and then doign a dist-upgrade. Are there any dangerous doing that?
[11:56] <waseem> bipolar: i never get any replies on pastebin
[11:56] <twister> bipolar: i plug in the docking station, and the display goes to the monitor and everything locks up
[11:56] <Jetfighter> How can I test like a forum software on my computer, but uploading to my site? Please?
[11:56] <Jetfighter> before*
[11:56] <n-iCe> Halitech,  let me connect it
[11:56] <twister> no keyboard or mouse work, on the laptop, or external
[11:57] <Hatty> Jetfighter: apache httpd
[11:57] <Jetfighter> How can I use that?
[11:57] <bipolar> waseem: what do you mean? go to pastebin.ca, paste your error into it, then post it. when you post it, paste the link to the post here so I can look at it.
[11:57] <Robbie_Crash> rtfm?
[11:57] <Halitech> Jetfighter - download it, install it and then set it up
[11:57] <matkix0s> I'm having no luck figuring out what command to issue the nvidia driver to enable both of my screens in cent os 4.4 I just issues one command and rebooted and everything worked...
[11:57] <Hatty> Jetfighter:  thre are tonnes of tutorials on the net
[11:57] <assasukasse> find /boot/grub/stage1 returns error
[11:57] <vox754> Robbie_Crash: ha ha.

[11:58] <erateca> Hi, I have just changed to ubuntu and am a total newbie... I don't know if this is a stupid question but how can I make a shortcut to a folder in the desktop??
[11:58] <matkix0s> Anyone willing to help please pm me! thank you...
[11:58] <erateca> I tried with make link... but it gave me an error
[11:58] <twister> bipolar: are you able to plug the laptop into the docking station while running and have everything work?
[11:58] <N3rg4r> !w32codecs
[11:58] <ubotu> Seveas has a popular 3rd party repository for several packages, including the win32 codecs: see http://wiki.ubuntu.com/SeveasPackages - See also !Codecs
[11:58] <Jetfighter> Eratica, copy to your desktop folder?
[11:58] <vox754> assasukasse: probably because the Windows disk had grub, so you just follow the steps without finding the stage1, just install it on the current drive "hd0"
[11:58] <madsrh> how do I disable the logon when returning from standby??? Anyone?
[11:58] <PriceChild> erateca, middle click drag a folder from somewhere to the desktop
[11:59] <waseem> bipolar: oh wow sorry i didnt know thats what you were supposed to do:  http://pastebin.ca/391173
[11:59] <Jetfighter> Hello?
[11:59] <PriceChild> hi?
[11:59] <lisapc> my sound was working great, but i did an upgrade of ubuntu! but now i got no sound.  what can I do?  anyone know?
[12:00] <erateca> thanks guys it worked!
[12:00] <PriceChild> erateca, which one?
[12:00] <Jetfighter> Lol, how can I take screenshots?
[12:00] <bipolar> waseem: it looks like the nvidia driver was installed manualy, so you'll have to manualy remove it.
[12:00] <Cyco> does anyone care to have a conversation about ubuntu speed and tweaking?
[12:00] <shatrat> Jetfighter, print screen key
[12:00] <hollywoodb> Jetfighter: print screen, or the gimp can do it as well
[12:00] <JordiGH> Where can I begin reading about how to get my XBox gamepad working in Ubuntu? The cabling is already ready and it works under another popular OS.
[12:00] <Jetfighter> What do I do once I print screen?
[12:00] <waseem> bipolar: plus theres the problem of me not being able to apt-get install any packages
