[00:00] <ed_debian> UntouchableMX, He's kidding
[00:00] <fccf> sjokkis: funny
[00:00] <sjokkis> UntouchableMX: that was not the logical follow-up
[00:00] <UntouchableMX> lol
[00:00] <ed_debian> korjata, I'm glad you figuered it out!
[00:00] <ed_debian> zortec, Are you still there?
[00:01] <elli222> Hello
[00:01] <UntouchableMX> been lookin on the internet for a fix, and cant seem to find it
[00:01] <sjokkis> UntouchableMX: are you using the gnome connection manager?
[00:01] <UntouchableMX> im using wicd
[00:01] <rods> Anyone use GParted?
[00:01] <ed_debian> UntouchableMX, Are you looking in 30 second bursts??
[00:01] <ed_debian> lol
[00:01] <fccf> rods: all the time
[00:01] <elli222> For some reason, /etc/X11/Xmodmap isnt being read upon login, any idea why?
[00:01] <ed_debian> rods, YES
[00:01] <m1chael> i have a remote server.. i want to install ubuntu on it and then install virtualbox and run a few other OS's for production websites and e-mail/db servers... i use windows xp here at home and ive never done anything "visual" with a server before.. where do i begin? is what i am trying to do normal?
[00:01] <sjokkis> rods: i try not to, but yes
[00:01] <jrib> infomomo: /usr/share/update-manager/mirrors.cfg is my guess
[00:01] <korjata> ed_debian: I think I had another problem but I can't think of it now.
[00:01] <sjokkis> m1chael: rdesktop
[00:02] <ed_debian> korjata, lol.  Ok let me know I'd love to help!
[00:02] <rods> fccf: how do I get the fat32 option? There are a few options not included with the ubuntu repo install
[00:02] <sjokkis> dudes. how can i connect to a particular network share when i'm on a particular wlan?
[00:02] <fccf> rods: fat32 is supported by default
[00:02] <m1chael> would mstsc.exe work?
[00:02] <korjata> ed_debian: I still don't know how I got that miracle transfer
[00:02] <quinn> ed_debian, what do i put after ssh?
[00:02] <ubuntu> does flash work in 64 bit?
[00:02] <akmalhamdani> use samba
[00:03] <ed_debian> korjata, Yeah strange huh
[00:03] <ed_debian> quinn, SSH is a command that you use to connect from a client to a server
[00:03] <sjokkis> korjata: that's why it's a miracle
[00:03] <sjokkis> god did it
[00:03] <ed_debian> it is used like this: ssh user@server
[00:03] <akmalhamdani> flash works in 64bit
[00:03] <superGear> Flash works on 64bit
[00:03] <ed_debian> quinn, just man ssh
[00:03] <elli222> Flash, through NSpluginwrapper, works
[00:03] <ed_debian> quinn, You do have to set up the server though before you can SSH into it
[00:03] <korjata> sjokkis: A 13 gigabyte file from home folder to my other hd.

[00:04] <Ademan> is there a way to see what files are included in what packages? (WITHOUT having to install the packages)
[00:04] <linux> what are the actual XF86Audio global shortcuts on a regular keyboard?
[00:04] <sjokkis> korjata: i wasn't paying attention. what was the miracle?
[00:04] <ed_debian> quinn, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SSH/OpenSSH/InstallingConfiguringTesting
[00:04] <akmalhamdani> install sshd-server first
[00:04] <NishaKitty> adobe have a native package for flash on 64bit
[00:04] <UntouchableMX> i readed on a forum that kubuntu did had that problem with the wifi card, but I dont think thats the isue, and I dont like KDE, I preffer Gnome
[00:04] <NishaKitty> so it works
[00:04] <fccf> keres: your harddrive is fine
[00:04] <elli222> Also, Adobe recently compiled a 64 bit version of flash, its in alpha, and downloadable...
[00:04] <keres> fccf: i have really important files on there from a crashed winXP install
[00:04] <ed_debian> quinn, Although if you just install the openssh-server package on the server it works (you don't really need to configure anything)
[00:04] <keres> fccf: any chance i can force retreive them?
[00:05] <lobster2b> how can i remove a directory in konsole?
[00:05] <linux> Ademan - you can see that in Synaptic
[00:05] <elli222> rmdir
[00:05] <_nix_> lobster2b: rmdir <directory name>
[00:05] <elli222> lobster: Use rmdir for empty Directories
[00:05] <korjata> sjokkis: I transferred a 13 gigabyte folder from my home folder to a newly formatted internal drive in no time.
[00:05] <akmalhamdani> rm -r will remove restricted

[00:05] <sjokkis> korjata: and this file isn't bogus?
[00:05] <Ademan> linux: where? I know it will list installed files, but only after it's been installed...
[00:06] <keres> fccf: man i will love you forever if this stuff is recoverable
[00:06] <ed_debian> sjokkis, It was truely a miracle.   You can also do it in aptitude, but I don't have experience with that
[00:06] <Jack_Sparrow> !ohmy > sjokkis
[00:06] <koshari> elli222 i think itas an upper case -R
[00:06] <ed_debian> sjokkis, It's possible.  In any case I don't wanna piss him off

[00:07] <akmalhamdani> no it's r

[00:07] <keres> fccf: ok
[00:07] <elli222> For some reason, /etc/X11/Xmodmap isnt being read upon login, any idea why?
[00:07] <UntouchableMX> are the drivers different form kubuntu and ubuntu, I tought that the difference was that one uses KDE and the other Gnome
[00:08] <koshari> akmalhamdani both actually, By default, rm does not remove directories.  Use the --recursive (-r or
[00:08] <koshari>        -R)
[00:08] <Mion> elli222: you should have a .xmodmap in your ~, and then have that parsed at login
[00:08] <quinn> ed_debian, thanks, this will be useful
[00:08] <quinn> bye everyone
[00:08] <ed_debian> bye!
[00:08] <keres> fccf: its not picking anything up

[00:09] <Lyez> anyone using the 9.04 64bit version?  any difference?

[00:09] <UntouchableMX> !kubuntu
[00:09] <hskill> how can i check when the last time/date someone logged into my computer was?
[00:09] <ed_debian> aliciapg, YEs but it is bad practice
[00:09] <Kalmi_> Lyez, none
[00:09] <keres> fccf: it has a red warning sign next to it, filesystem is fat16
[00:09] <Lyez> k
[00:09] <korjata> ed_debian: me have bad karma?
[00:09] <akmalhamdani> last
[00:09] <elli222> aliciapg, try gdm-setup and enable local root login
[00:09] <Mion> elli222: mess with xsession then
[00:09] <aliciapg> elli222: ....uh i don't know how to do that
[00:09] <fccf> keres: right click on it
[00:09] <Serraphyn> are there any software packages I can install to see what my FPS is?
[00:09] <akmalhamdani> hskill: last
[00:09] <ed_debian> korjata, No sjokkis did (from swearing)
[00:09] <Kalmi_> Lyez, however flash sometimes stops working and a browser restart is needed in order to get it working again
[00:09] <keres> fccf: ok
[00:10] <Mion> Serraphyn: you men your screen refresh rate?
[00:10] <fccf> keres: is check useable
[00:10] <Baix> hey guys.  I just installed ubuntu and installed the restricted nvida drivers as it prompted me to and restarted. how do i check if they're actually running? i don't feel like they are
[00:10] <keres> fccf: yes
[00:10] <manpoole> in virtualbox 2.2.4 the xpguest window is transparent almost impossible to see the window, this only happens half the time any suggestions, aslo it goes away when disabling compiz
[00:10] <Serraphyn> Mion, no I mean Frames Per Second
[00:10] <Kalmi_> Baix, can you enable desktop effects?
[00:10] <ed_debian> korjata, Hilarious...
[00:10] <korjata> ed_debian: that's what I thought.
[00:10] <Baix> Kalmi_: I'll check now
[00:10] <Mion> Serraphyn: does not make any sense
[00:10] <fccf> keres: use check - it will check the drive and fix any problems (if possible)
[00:10] <infomomo> jrib: infomomo: /usr/share/update-manager/mirrors.cfg is my guess GOOD WORK
[00:11] <Mion> Serraphyn: that is application spesific

[00:11] <hskill> akgraner what about if someone just unlocks my screen by typing a password? how can i check when the last time someone did that?
[00:11] <ed_debian> korjata, How are you doing that?
[00:11] <keres> fccf: ok its checking. ill be back in a sec, gotta eat
[00:11] <Serraphyn> Oh, cause I ran a game in Wine 1.1.22 and its kinda bad FPS, but I have a nice card.
[00:11] <Mion> Baix: glxinfo | grep -i nvidia
[00:11] <Baix> Mion: what should i look for in here?
[00:11] <Jack_Sparrow> Serraphyn /join #winehq and see if they have any suggestions
[00:12] <Serraphyn> Jack_Sparrow, already in there :)
[00:12] <ed_debian> hskill, The logs.  specifically the auth log (authentication)
[00:12] <Baix> Mion: just as i feared...not there
[00:12] <Mion> Baix: both the server/client glx vendor, and the opengl vendor string should be nvidia

[00:12] <ed_debian> hskill, For?
[00:13] <ed_debian> hskill, You're welcome?

[00:15] <fccf> broken__: How can we fix you today?
[00:15] <n2diy> anybody know how to rotate text in abiword?
[00:15] <pace_t_zulu> hey guys... in IRC lingo what does "o/" mean?
[00:15] <hskill> pace_t_zulu a musical note i think

[00:16] <ironfoot_495> what to do first???
[00:16] <ironfoot_495> ;-)
[00:16] <harpreet_> chmod0700 ?
[00:16] <keres> pace_t_zulu: it means hello. \o/ means yay. kinda like a head and arms.
[00:16] <ed_debian> ironfoot_495, What specifically isn't working?  What are you trying to do?
[00:17] <ironfoot_495> ed_debian: I've really tried very hard to them to work but I'm missing something when it comes to the publickey???
[00:17] <fccf> keres: do you have a windows sysytem to boot to or are you living off the live cd right now?
[00:17] <broken__> fccf: Haha, actually I have a couple problems. I think I have almost figured out why my webcam isn't working.   Have you ssh'd without a private key (with just a username and password)?
[00:17] <harpreet_> what is chmod0700 ?
[00:17] <keres> fccf: i just need to get some files. Then i'll be doing a reinstall or linux on top of it :>
[00:18] <elli222> brb
[00:18] <pace_t_zulu> keres, thank you... you provided the bes answer
[00:18] <n2diy> Helping a friend setup his wireless network and I think he has is router config messed up. How can we determine the route to his route to his router, from my computer?
[00:18] <akmalhamdani> harpreet_:  change permission
[00:18] <graelin> harpreet_: owner read write execute screw everyone else
[00:18] <keres> pace_t_zulu: no problem. http://noslang.com , bud :)
[00:18] <broken__> I have videodev and quickcam. I think that quickcam is the right one, but I'm not sure. I tried to blacklist videodev, but it is still running
[00:18] <jturek>
[00:18] <broken__> I must be doing something wrong.
[00:19] <graelin> n2diy: log into the router.. usually network default gateway
[00:19] <n2diy> anybody know how to rotate text in abiword?
[00:19] <fccf> keres: chances are the partition tables are screwed up - windows did this, and chances are you have lost your data... I am sorry ... Backups are your best friend
[00:19] <graelin> n2diy: ie http://<IP_ADDRESS> or some such
[00:19] <ironfoot_495> ed_debian: it's intranet and I have tried all the google methods but for sdome reason I can get it to work
[00:19] <n2diy> graelin: what is the route to the router?
[00:19] <harpreet_> akmalhamdani: graelin: wicked
[00:20] <ed_debian> ironfoot_495, Do you have the open-ssh-server package installed on the server?
[00:20] <keres> fccf: any chance at all i could possibly fix it?
[00:20] <Jack_Sparrow> keres I may have some suggestions. PM me before you give up
[00:20] <fccf> n2diy: abiword is a little underpowered for text rotation
[00:20] <ironfoot_495> ed_debian: it keeps saying Permission denied (publickey,password)
[00:20] <n2diy> fccf: I was afraid that was the answer, thanks.
[00:20] <graelin> n2diy: is your comp on the network and if so, what os you in now?
[00:20] <fccf> keres: not likely, and chances are there is something physically wrong with the harddrive, ubuntu may not install
[00:20] <ed_debian> ironfoot_495, so the command you're running is "ssh ironfoot_495@ipofserver" ??
[00:21] <harpreet_> is there any real issues for 64 bit? flash , java not working etc. left unsolved or anything else I should be aware of before installing?
[00:21] <ironfoot_495> ed_debian: yes
[00:21] <Kalmi_> keres, can't you try booting a livecd and mounting your old partition?
[00:21] <broken__> Anyone have any ideas?
[00:21] <ed_debian> ironfoot_495, And you installed the openssh-server package on the server?
[00:21] <yuhong> I talked about PAE and NX support in Ubuntu before, but just want to let you know that Fedora 11 now do auto-detection at install time and install a PAE kernel if PAE is available.
[00:21] <n2diy> graelin: no, he is across town, so I need the route to his router, both boxes are running a flavor of Ubuntu.
[00:21] <benc2> how do I change a server boot script under /etc/init.d/serverName?
[00:21] <dtchen> yuhong: something similar is in the works for karmic
[00:21] <harpreet_> I Love You....Miss Ubuntu
[00:21] <fccf> broken_ have you installed uvcvideo?
[00:21] <akmalhamdani> harpreet_:  use java for 64 bit?
[00:22] <benc2> what do I do after I edit the file?
[00:22] <harpreet_> akmalhamdani: yes, is it possible or still an issue
[00:22] <ironfoot_495> ed_debian:yes
[00:22] <ironfoot_495> well actually I use ssh -vv -p 2096 root@ipadd
[00:22] <broken__> fccf: No I haven't. Do I just apt-get it?
[00:22] <Kalmi_> akmalhamdani, harpreet_: java works fine on 64 bit ubuntu
[00:22] <graelin> n2diy: well... you'd need his IP address.. but chances are his router will not let you login from the outside of his network
[00:22] <dtchen> yuhong: you'll note that nx support (well, the relevant execshield bits) are in karmic's kernel, and 32-bit karmic will gain pae and non-pae flavours
[00:22] <harpreet_> Kalmi_: thank you
[00:22] <akmalhamdani> harpreet_:  for flash, it's still alpha version but it's worked
[00:22] <fccf> broken_ depending on the camera that may just work apt-get is fine
[00:23] <rods> why would GParted have greyed out options (i.e. fat32, fat16, wt
[00:23] <rods> c
[00:23] <Kalmi_> akmalhamdani, harpreet_: the 32 bit flashplayer works fine in 64 bit browsers
[00:23] <ed_debian> ironfoot_495, what does the -vv flag do? Why are you trying to log in as root?  Try to log in as yourself IDK if root is allowed to ssh.  Seems like it would be a security risk.
[00:23] <yuhong> Thanks, especially because I  mentioned it before.
[00:23] <broken__> I'll give that a shot and let you know
[00:23] <yuhong> Thanks, especially because I once argued about it before.
[00:23] <harpreet_> Kalmi_: you mean flashplugin nonfree?
[00:23] <fccf> broken_ what are you using to view the cam
[00:23] <graelin> n2diy: and if he's having router issues, I doubt you'll get a remote connection to his desktop going... Sounds like you'll be troubleshooting on the phone
[00:23] <n2diy> graelin: yes, I need to know the route to his router. Once I know where it is, hopefully it will let me play with it as if I was on the local net?
[00:23] <Kalmi_> harpreet_, yes
[00:23] <benc2> when I edit a boot script. do I need to do something afterwards?
[00:24] <Baix> anyone know of a stand alone pandora player?
[00:24] <broken__> fccf: I tried camorama and cheese.
[00:24] <harpreet_> Kalmi_: thank you
[00:24] <Kalmi_> harpreet_, yw
[00:24] <fccf> broken__: you might try with VLC it handles /dev/video a little better in some cases
[00:24] <ed_debian> ironfoot_495, Also try putting the ip address of your server (the local intranet ip address) instead of it's host name.  Unless you have the name in your host file or you have a DNS server on your intranet host names won't work
[00:24] <n2diy> graelin: roger that, and no phone needed, my roomate is heading over there now, and may pop up here any minute now?
[00:24] <graelin> n2diy: ROUTERS USUALLY HAVE SOME SORT OF BASIC FIREWALL SET ON THEM... INCOMMING CONNECTIONS ARE NOT LIKELY ALLOWED
[00:25] <ironfoot_495> ed_debian: are you there???
[00:25] <ironfoot_495> I think I olost connection
[00:25] <broken__> Ok, I'll try that too
[00:25] <ninjabox> Can anyone tell me how to force a resolution if its not shown in nvidia-settings?  Too many people have asked this simple question online, and have flooded google with really bad answers
[00:25] <graelin> D*** caps key
[00:25] <Kalmi_> !caps | graelin
[00:25] <ninjabox> I know I can write it into xorg.conf, but is there something special I have to do with the binary driver to get it to accept a custom xorg.conf?
[00:25] <ed_debian> ironfoot_495 NOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!  we've lost him...
[00:25] <noah1989> hi, has anyone tried evolution and google calendar?
[00:27] <broken__> fccf: I can't find any package called uvcvideo.
[00:27] <akmalhamdani> I lost me
[00:28] <Serraphyn> how do you stop it from continually trying to install a package with apt-get when the package errors out?
[00:29] <Baix> anyone have any opinion on what's the best flash player?
[00:29] <ironfoot_495> ed_debian: are you still there got disconnected??
[00:29] <Kalmi_> Baix, the real one?
[00:29] <harpreet_> Baix: flashplugin nonfree
[00:29] <fccf> broken__: hey, sorry about that - I was wrong again ... do you also have V4L installed . it is a major part of caming
[00:30] <harpreet_> Baix: dont go with shockwave
[00:30] <ese> Hi everyone!

[00:31] <harpreet_> Kalmi_: it is available but not good

[00:31] <broken__> fccf: that's ok. I really appreciate your help; I've been trying to get this thing working for about three days now. I do have V4L installed.
[00:32] <fccf> broken__: how about luvcview
[00:32] <ese> My firefox keeps on crashing on my hardy installation...
[00:32] <Kalmi_> harpreet_, i can't find it.... I don't think it exists... can you give me a link?
[00:32] <Serraphyn> !flash
[00:32] <broken__> fccf: No I don't have that, but I will install it now
[00:32] <graelin> broken__: is it a usb camera?
[00:32] <eap> hey is there a GUI version of something like Peerguardian for linux, such as MoBlock but with GUI?
[00:32] <zortec_> Sorry, I missed all the messages.  But to recap, I really would like some help on a few things.  First I created a 20GB home partition, a 10GB root partition, and a 3GB swap.  I've ran out of room on my home partition.  I can't seem to mount my cdrom.  Why does .gnome in /home take up 10GB.  I need about 10GB just to play WoW.  Should I make the home partition about 50GB?
[00:33] <zortec_> It seems odd that GNOME would take up 10GB.  That is half my home partition.
[00:33] <ironfoot_495> Hi is there anyone who can help me fix ssh I'm having a problem with publickey Can't get my desktop or server to respond over the intranet???
[00:33] <broken__> graelin: yes, it is a usb quickcam express
[00:33] <ironfoot_495> I am so frustrated?!!!
[00:33] <Kalmi_> zortec_, you can the gparted live to resize partitions
[00:33] <ese> does anybody else got issues with firefox and flash?
[00:34] <rods> ese: what kind of issues
[00:34] <Kalmi_> ironfoot_495, that does not seem to be publickey issue...
[00:34] <zortec_> Kalmi_: So did I create too small of partitions?  I have went through the partition manager now 3 times.  I'm really lost as to what sizes to go with
[00:34] <harpreet_> Kalmi_: there is a plugin swfdec for linux which isnt good and you can install windows version in linux with tweaks here:
[00:34] <ese> rods: it just crash...
[00:34] <ironfoot_495> Kaimi_: what do you think it is ??
[00:34] <harpreet_> Kalmi_: http://anurag.granularproject.org/2008/10/install-shockwave-in-linux-using-wine/
[00:35] <fccf> zortec_: my .gnome folder is 166K - what is in it that is large?
[00:35] <Azalyn> will ubuntu's partitioner still add windows to my grub boot menu if i chose to manually partition
[00:35] <nJustin3k> I have an command line installation of 9.04, and I just got xfce4, when I start it however, it logs me in as root, becuase the only way it starts is with sudo startxfce4,  how can I log in as my normal user so im not root?
[00:35] <zortec> fccf: .gnome2 takes up 10GB
[00:35] <eap> hey is there a GUI version of something like Peerguardian for linux, such as MoBlock but with GUI? <------anyone have any idea?
[00:35] <Azalyn> or is that just an option that is available with "install them side by side" ?
[00:35] <geirha> zortec_: du -s ~/.gnome2/* | sort -g
[00:35] <ironfoot_495> Kalmi_:  well what do you think it is ??
[00:35] <Jack_Sparrow> Azalyn yes
[00:36] <fccf> zortec not on my machine ... look deeper into that folder and see what it is that is taking up that much space
[00:36] <zortec> geirha: It's showing different sizes when I pasted that command
[00:36] <Kalmi_> harpreet_, swfdec is for flash... and shockwave in wine is not really shockwave in linux...
[00:36] <ironfoot_495> Kalmi_:  can you help me with this ?
[00:36] <zortec> geirha: I was using the gui that shows 1467 files taking up 10.9GB
[00:36] <ironfoot_495> please?
[00:36] <aliciapg> thanks for the help everyone, i got it working :D
[00:36] <harpreet_> Kalmi_: thats what i said, it isnt good for linux
[00:36] <Kalmi_> ironfoot_495, probably your router.... you need to set up portforwarding at the ssh server...
[00:36] <Azalyn> because with the slider partitioning method i can't seem to move the slider to the far left. i had already made an ext3 partition for it. but it seems to assume i want to keep it, instead of assuming i want it to *use* it.
[00:37] <earthlander_> Hi all
[00:37] <Kalmi_> harpreet_, ... ok... so there is no shockwave for linux :)
[00:37] <ironfoot_495> Kalmi_: port forwarding hum?? can you give me the instructions on how to do so??
[00:37] <fccf> Azalyn: go back and make an unpartitioned space for ubuntu to use
[00:37] <geirha> zortec: The above command shows the sizes in KiB
[00:38] <graelin> broken: http://linux-uvc.berlios.de/ see if your cam is supported. Linux doesn't play nice with all of them
[00:38] <zortec> I seem to have multiple windows open but I can't see them all, they are like on another desktop
[00:39] <Kalmi_> ironfoot_495, it's router specific and there is lot of tutorials on the internet for it... you need to forward port 22 (tcp) to your internal ip (on ssh server's router)
[00:39] <harpreet_> Kalmi_: i agree, here is something for us: http://www.petitiononline.com/linuxswp/petition.html
[00:39] <ironfoot_495> ok
[00:41] <broken__> graelin: Mine isn't listed on that site. I've been to a "quickcam team" website that claimed these should work with my exact camera
[00:41] <Baix> how do i check what files went where after an apt-get install?
[00:41] <fccf> broken__: luvcview should be the fix you needed
[00:41] <progre55> hey people! how to mount a dvd disc? cause I put an emply disc into my drive, but ubuntu doesnt see it (
[00:41] <stew> Baix: dpkg -L packagename
[00:41] <stew> progre55: if its empty, there is nothing to mount
[00:42] <broken__> fccf: I just installed it. Do I need to reboot or anything?
[00:42] <Dr_Willis_> Howmany differet ways are there now to have 'widgits' on the desktop? Been trying out some today. Seem Google-desktop widgits,  gdesklets, screenlets, Kde's Plasmids,   any others im missing?  (not counting conky, or gkrellm) :)
[00:42] <Baix> stew: thanks
[00:42] <progre55> stew, well, I just wanted to burn it, but brasero doesnt see it..
[00:42] <fccf> broken__: probably not .. just run a cheese or something
[00:42] <TheFunkbomb> Anyone have a problem with the 64 bit 10.0 r22 flash plugin causing a segment fault with Firefox when visiting sites like Youtube.com?
[00:43] <zortec> Why is ubuntu being so difficult?  I just want to get a nice set up without any problems
[00:43] <wistler> hi guys
[00:43] <chuck_>  /msg nickserv set hidemail on
[00:43] <chuck_> oops
[00:43] <progre55> hey people! how to mount a dvd disc? cause I put an emply disc into my drive, but ubuntu doesnt see it ( how to burn it??
[00:43] <fccf> zortec: am  confused about your .gnome2 directory ... I'd like to know what in that dir is taking up so much space
[00:44] <ese> porn?
[00:44] <pirilampo> Saluton!
[00:44] <zortec> fccf: When I right click on the home dir, it shows 6,547 items totaling 11.9GB
[00:44] <progre55> ese, yeah, a dvd full of porn!
[00:44] <zortec> I can't believe it's taking that much.
[00:44] <progre55> =)
[00:44] <geirha> zortec: This should show how many megabytes each file/dir in your home is using: du --max-depth=1 -xm $HOME | sort -g
[00:44] <fccf> zortec: dig down .. to .gnome2 - and use list view to see what in .gnome2 is using that space
[00:44] <Dr_Willis_> progre55:  you dont mount an empty disk.. you run whatever burner app you want and burn to it.. then you can mount it.
[00:45] <geirha> zortec: Sorted with the largest last
[00:45] <fccf> zortec: details view - i meant
[00:45] <wistler> can anyone help me please ?      i've got virtualbox and instaled vista on it
[00:45] <Dr_Willis_> progre55:  unless you are thinking how in windows you can treat a blank optical disk like a big 'floppy disk'
[00:45] <TheFunkbomb> Anyone have a problem with the 64 bit 10.0 r22 flash plugin causing a segment fault with Firefox when visiting sites like Youtube.com?
[00:45] <fccf> wistler this is the ubuntu channel - try #virtualbox
[00:45] <wistler> is there a way that vista can comunicate with the host (ubuntu) ?
[00:45] <zortec> 11092	/home/zortec/.local
[00:45] <zortec> 11260	/home/zortec
[00:46] <wistler> through the net
[00:46] <broken__> fccf: I just installed it. I guess I'll reboot and then try it again. I'll let you know if it works or not.
[00:46] <progre55> Dr_Willis_, no, it's just, even brasero doesnt see it..
[00:46] <Halitech> wistler, sorry to hear that :D best advice is to remove it :)
[00:46] <Kalmi_> TheFunkbomb, I don't have that problem... worksforme(tm)
[00:46] <wistler> looooooooool
[00:46] <Bedon> not sure if this is the right place or not as its more about grub than ubuntu itself, but installed ubuntu no problems, and followed guide http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1035999 7 installed fine, but reinstalled grub and now its giving me an error that the cylinder is higher than the bios supports when i try to boot 7
[00:46] <Dr_Willis_> wistler:  virtualbox os can use samba or whatever.. or virtualbox has its own special 'shares' it can be accessed  check the vbox docs.
[00:46] <wistler> lol
[00:46] <Jamed> !samba | wistler
[00:46] <geirha> zortec: Ok, so it's in .local then, probably the trash. Re-run the command replacing $HOME with $HOME/.local
[00:46] <wistler> I need it for the work :s
[00:46] <Dr_Willis_> progre55:  then it may be theres some error in how the burners are configured.  ive seen a few others have similer issues
[00:47] <lakotajames> Is there a way to make the volume louder?
[00:47] <geirha> zortec: Continue inwards till you find the big files
[00:47] <yuhong> BTW, the thing that is most troublesome with PAE right now seems to be the Intel graphics drivers.
[00:47] <zortec> 11092	/home/zortec/.local
[00:47] <zortec> 11092	/home/zortec/.local/share
[00:47] <Dr_Willis_> wistler:  set up samba on the linux host machine.. and the guest should be able to access the shares. or use ssh, and winscp on windows.
[00:47] <progre55> Dr_Willis_, any solutions you could offer, please? )
[00:47] <fallore> is there anything like the windows app ultramon for ubuntu? something that would facilitate dual monitor usage?
[00:47] <wistler> ubottu when I connect a 3G internet vista gets net to, but if net is down, I can't comunicate with host linux
[00:48] <fccf> zortec: inside .gnome2 ... look there for big files /home/zortec/.gnome2/ here
[00:48] <Dr_Willis_> progre55:  other then check the forums no. Ive never had the issue.   many of the dvd burner apps ahve configure menus you may want to check out
[00:48] <shayaknyc> hi all, i was hoping someone could help me with this...i'm migrating out of windows vista, where you can hold shift and right-click on an executable file or shortcut and then have it run as administrator...is there something similar in kubuntu where you can right-click an executable and have it run as kdesudo/sudo ?
[00:48] <wistler> Dr_Disk I'll try that
[00:48] <wistler> tnks guys
[00:48] <Kalmi_> wistler, use NAT networking in vbox
[00:48] <wistler> it is nat
[00:48] <Kalmi_> um... od... ok
[00:48] <Kalmi_> +d
[00:48] <earthlander_> How do i install updates with ending with .run?
[00:48] <yuhong> http://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=17993
[00:48] <geirha> zortec: Have you tried emptying the trashcan? trash is stored at $HOME/.local/share/Trash
[00:48] <Kalmi_> earthlander_, what are you installing?
[00:49] <zortec> fccf: .gnome2 doesn't have any big files
[00:49] <keres_> Jack_Sparrow, may i msg you?
[00:49] <progre55> Dr_Willis_, I see. well, thanks anyways =)
[00:49] <zortec> geirha: Trash affects your disk usage on linux? I didn't know that
[00:49] <fccf> zortec: .gnome2 is the one with 10gigs right?
[00:49] <geirha> zortec: Yes, it just moves the files in there, so you can restore them in case you trashed the wrong files
[00:49] <Kalmi_> zortec, how could it not affect your disk usage? :)
[00:50]  * i0x73 bashes his head against the wall.
[00:50] <shayaknyc> so...nobody has any clue?
[00:50] <zortec> fccf: .gnome2 is only 63.7KB
[00:50] <kitche> shayaknyc: sorry what was your question?
[00:50] <harpreet_> shayaknyc: question?
[00:50] <fccf> zortec: ok, earlier you said gnome was taking up 10gigs
[00:51] <shayaknyc> hi all, i was hoping someone could help me with this...i'm migrating out of windows vista, where you can hold shift and right-click on an executable file or shortcut and then have it run as administrator...is there something similar in kubuntu where you can right-click an executable and have it run as kdesudo/sudo ?
[00:51] <sanfoor> hi alllll
[00:51] <Dr_Willis_> shayaknyc:  ive seen 'run as root' nautilus scripts.. but i dont use them
[00:51] <kitche> shayaknyc: hmm yeah you would use run as root
[00:51] <psyber> anyone out here know how to diagnose random freezes?  Seems to happen most when streaming video, or using transmission.  Also happens when streaming radio surfing net and wordprocessing
[00:51] <storrgie> just formatted to ubuntu, I get to autocomplete in the console... help!
[00:51] <zortec> fccf, geirha, Kalmi_: So it's the trash then.  But it's going to take 10GB for the WoW files... so should I consider a bigger partition if I'm going to test gaming on linux? I did 3GB for swap, 10GB for /, and 20GB for home
[00:51] <Dr_Willis_> shayaknyc:  and that would be gnome specific.. #kubuntu may know of a simile rfeature in kde.
[00:51] <sanfoor> wich is the best ( Ubutu, Xubutu , Minit , Crunshbang ) ????!!!!
[00:51] <shayaknyc> I'm running in kubuntu, i don't see any run as root when i right-click
[00:51] <sanfoor> wich is the best ( Ubutu, Xubutu , Minit , Crunshbang ) ????!!!!
[00:51] <Kalmi_> shayaknyc, I don't see the point... why would you run random executables as root...
[00:51] <shayaknyc> i asked in kubuntu, nobody had an answer for me :(
[00:51] <Dr_Willis_> sanfoor:  use what you want.  I would say stick with Ubuntu ifyour syste, can handle it
[00:52] <harpreet_> shayaknyc: no, its not that easy, use nautilus and run what you need
[00:52] <sanfoor> thank u dr willis
[00:52] <shayaknyc> kalmi_: not random execs, but specific files (like adobe air) without having to go into konsole
[00:52] <Dr_Willis_> shayaknyc:  i rarely have  the need to run arbitary things as root. :) so its not really a needed feature to most people.
[00:52] <shayaknyc> will nautilus run on kubuntu environment?
[00:52] <fallore> I'm using Nvidia TwinView with dual monitors. I'd like to have apps on the right monitor show up on the right monitor's panel, etc. Is there a way to do this?
[00:52] <Kalmi> shayaknyc, are you installing stuff daily?
[00:52] <Dr_Willis_> shayaknyc:  theres ways to make a binary run 'as root'  always.. but thats a bit of a security risk
[00:52] <harpreet_> shayaknyc: yes
[00:52] <sanfoor> i'm looking for a system that use less ressources and good performence
[00:52] <lakotajames> I need more VOLUME!!!  is there a easy way to do that?  Or should I just buy louder speakers?
[00:53] <kitche> shayaknyc: yes but it will but it will pull in a lot of gnome
[00:53] <shayaknyc> well, i'm currently running kubuntu 9.04 in vbox in windows vista
[00:53] <geirha> zortec: You could just make a separate partition for your game, mount it at $HOME/WOW for instance, then tell wine to use that dir as D:. Then lastly, install wow to D: in wine
[00:53] <shayaknyc> kinda testing itout
[00:53] <fccf> zortec: personally I don't use a home partition - just a 40 gig / and a 300gig stores-which is where I keep all radio station data -- and 8gig swap
[00:53] <shayaknyc> and frankly, i LOVE it so far
[00:53] <Kalmi> lakotajames, try running: alsamixer
[00:53] <n2diy> sanfoor: Xubuntu.
[00:53] <harpreet_> lakotajames: hosting a party?
[00:53] <Dr_Willis_> 8gb swap? thats a little... large
[00:53] <Dr_Willis_> :)
[00:53] <yuhong> The problem seems to be GEM.
[00:53] <zortec> geirha, fccf: I was reading that you should use a home partition since it makes it easier to upgrade upbuntu, of course never have done that so can't really comment
[00:53] <harpreet_> kalmi
[00:53] <sanfoor> i'm looking for a system that use less ressources and good performence
[00:53] <lakotajames> Kalmi: Already all the way up.  Anything else?
[00:54] <sanfoor> i'm using xubuntu, is that fine ?
[00:54] <lukilla> can you download games off the internet or do you have to use synaptic?
[00:54] <lakotajames> harpreet_: No, I am going insane.  I need to drown out my thoughts.
[00:54] <zortec> geirha, fccf: I was just going to create a root partition, but wine puts all your files into a home partition right?
[00:54] <geirha> zortec: Yes, it's not a bad idea to have a separate /home. I have that as well.
[00:54] <sebsebseb> lukilla: you can get games from outside Synaptic
[00:54] <psyber> I can confirm that putting home on its own partition is a good diea
[00:54] <graelin> lakotajames: bring up the volume controls and see if the master is turned down. 9.04 seems to like that set low for some reason. I seem to be always adjusting mine
[00:54] <sebsebseb> lukilla: uh the repo I should say
[00:54] <Dr_Willis_> lukilla:  you can do whatever you want. :) depends on the games
[00:54] <sebsebseb> !repo | lukilla
[00:54] <lukilla> how?
[00:54] <The_Beard> Any opinions on set top boxes for media streaming?
[00:54] <fccf> zortec: I have no intention of upgrading... I use LTS and this server will stay  locked in this mode for the life of the radio station
[00:54] <harpreet_> Kalmi_: i just built a machine today, should i manually set swap or should i just use entire disk, which will be more beneficial?
[00:55] <BouB> hi
[00:55] <bertt> help! i deleted my linux partitions and screwed up grub in the process, and then i couldn't boot vista, so i got my 9.04 live cd out (on it now) and tried to fix my windows MBR - and now i get an error that says winload.exe could not be used - it may be missing or corrupt. help!!! how can i fix winload.exe ???
[00:55] <BouB> I got problem with samba server
[00:55] <zortec> geirha: How do I go about making a separate partition, mounting it, and doing all of those steps?
[00:55] <Kalmi_> harpreet_, just use the entire disk... Ubuntu will find the optimal settings for you
[00:55] <BouB> anyone can help me?
[00:55] <BouB> ?
[00:55] <Jamed> sanfoor: u can use a _really_ low resource window manager like dwm or wmii
[00:55] <Kalmi_> !ask | BouB
[00:55] <fccf> harpreet_: Use entire disk... it will automatically set swap size for you based on your ram
[00:55] <Dr_Willis_> bertt:  so you wish to no longer have any linux at all?
[00:55] <BouB> k
[00:56] <bertt> Dr Willis - i need the space on my HD. for now i'm done with ubuntu, i'm going to get it back after i finish a c++ class i'm taking when i don't have to use command prompt everyday
[00:56] <psyber> bertt: not sure if this is the place to be asking how to fix winload.  However, having a similar problem a few years ago I seem to remember using an app called fixmbr.
[00:56] <kierkokos> hi
[00:56] <fallore> I'm using Nvidia TwinView with dual monitors. I'd like to have apps on the right monitor show up on the right monitor's panel, etc. Is there a way to do this?
[00:56] <Kalmi_> bertt: that sounds like you somehow messed up your windows install... how did you reinstall grub?
[00:56] <kierkokos> how to see log who ping me last time?
[00:56] <Dr_Willis_> bertt:  then you need to boot a windows cd.. and use the proper windows commands to 'rewrite' the mbr to the disk. #windows may be best for that. You need linux to use grub basically.
[00:56] <bertt> kalmi_ : i didn't. i'm using the livecd
[00:57] <zaccour> hey
[00:57] <lakotajames> graelin:No, all the way up.  Seems like it could be louder, though.  Do I need to buy new speakers, or a new sound card?
[00:57] <BouB> I see just get connection to samba drives after restarting service instead directly after reboo
[00:57] <BouB> t
[00:57] <bertt> dr_willis_: ok. thank you, i'll check them out. i'll also google fixmbr.
[00:57] <zaccour> what does the other side of a  pop-up window look like?
[00:57] <The_Beard> Anyone at all? Looking for someone who uses some sort of media device to stream media to, from their own server...
[00:57] <Kalmi_> bertt, ok... whatever... good luck
[00:57] <wistler> bertt you need a win98 cd
[00:58] <hell_> is there a way to convert mp4 to mp3
[00:58] <wistler> and go to dos
[00:58] <graelin> lakotajames: could be. master is all the way up as well as front?
[00:58] <geirha> zortec: Come to think of it, resizing /home is a bit easier to do, if you're not familiar with editing /etc/fstab
[00:58] <wistler> then write    -----------------mbr     fdisk /
[00:58] <fccf> The_Beard: I am using flumotion to stream to the IPhone - does that count
[00:58] <wistler> then write    ----------------- fdisk       /mbr
[00:58] <zortec> geirha: Is there a quick way to resize /home?
[00:58] <lakotajames> graelin:  yeah, everything is up all the way.  I meant, what would make it loud?  Which should I buy?  or both?
[00:59] <geirha> zortec: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/HowtoPartition
[00:59] <shayaknyc> ok, one last question, i promise, how do i make a shortcut on my desktop folder to run nautilus in kubuntu? do i need to provide the full path?
[00:59] <bertt> wistler: how the heck do i get a win98 cd? and that will help me boot vista?
[00:59] <BouB> so how do I get samba working without manually rebooting service?
[00:59] <zaccour> what does the other side of a  pop-up window look like?
[00:59] <The_Beard> fccf, heh, not really... thanks for trying though ;) Just trying to find some peoples opinions who have actually used some of the boxes that are out there...
[00:59] <etfb> Perhaps someone can solve this mystery for me.  The package "pm-utils" just came up in my auto-update.  I went and followed links.  The Ubuntu version is 0.99, but the oldest one on the pm-utils GIT repository is <IP_ADDRESS>, and that's a year old.  The one that Ubuntu is pushing out now must be two years old or more!  Why is it only showing up now?
[00:59] <fccf> The_Beard: like slingbox, AppleTV, etc
[01:00] <The_Beard> fccf, exactly, AppleTV seems too limited... so I am looking for something like it, that I can stream movies to...as well as use Boxee/netflix/etc...
[01:00] <psyber> anyone out have any suggestions on how to go about figuring out why I keep having random crashes?
[01:00] <wistler> or a disk of          free dos
[01:00] <psyber> sorry random freezes
[01:00] <fccf> The_Beard: Have you considered MythTV
[01:00] <Dr_Willis_> AppleTV is a little PC. :) you could put a whole new OS on it and do what you want.. if you know how....
[01:00] <wistler> bertt        or a disk of          free dos
[01:01] <The_Beard> fccf, hmm have never heard of it...
[01:01] <The_Beard> fccf, checking site now
[01:01] <zaccour> what does the other side of a  pop-up window look like?
[01:01] <wistler> :|
[01:01] <Dr_Willis_> The_Beard:  check out 'geexbox' it turns almost any pc in to a media player/that can play remote/streams/files :)
[01:01] <RedSocrates> psyber: Can you give a little bit more detail about when the freezes happen?  And are they total system freezes, or just X windows freezes, or what?
[01:01] <RedSocrates> psyber: Also, are you using Jaunty, or another version of Ubuntu?
[01:01] <bazhang> !ot > zaccour
[01:01] <wistler> bertt what is going on ?
[01:01] <TheFunkbomb> any idea when Ubuntu is going to fix the flash problem?
[01:01] <wistler> y
[01:02] <zortec> Can I resize /home from within ubuntu? I just need to unmount it first
[01:02] <bertt> wistler: say i downloaded a .iso of win98 , would i then use it fix the mbr?
[01:02] <BouB> my samba server only works after manually rebootung service. anyone knows why?
[01:02] <The_Beard> Dr_Willis_, I've heard the name, but I want to stream media to my plasma in the living area...HDMI...
[01:02] <BattleTop> Hi. I've installed Jaunty AMD64. Does anyone know a quick way to install ATI graphics driver?
[01:02] <fccf> zortec: you will need to do it from the live cd
[01:02] <geirha> zortec: Not if it is on the same harddrive as /. Then you'll need to boot the live CD
[01:02] <psyber> RedSocrates: not sure if it is X or the system.  It seems to happen a lot when streaming video or running transmission.  Also happens when word streaming radio.  I started having this problem when I upgraded to Jaunty
[01:02] <zaccour> there is a flash problem?
[01:02] <RedSocrates> psyber: What video card do you have?
[01:02] <zaccour> flash works just fine on ubuntu for me
[01:02] <zaccour> ?????
[01:02] <zaccour> what flash problem?
[01:03] <wistler> bertt   don't really need a win98,                 download "free DOS"
[01:03] <graelin> lakotajames: Well... not sure what to do. New soundcard may fix it, but no guarantee. Get VLC and use that as a player. VLC seems to boost the snot out of sound. The middle sound setting is 100% and it goes up from there...
[01:03] <zaccour> TheFunkbomb, what are you talking about?
[01:03] <wistler> follow the instructions to make flopyes
[01:03] <psyber> RedSocrates: old school nvidia 7300 LE.  I did some googling and did not find anyone with similar problems
[01:03] <bertt> wistler: and then what? make an .iso, boot from it... and... hope to recover winload.exe ??
[01:03] <Dr_Willis_> bertt:  what OS is on the machine? if 98 then you need a 98/me/related cd.. XP need a XP cd
[01:03] <psyber> RedSocrates: I am using the latest Nvidia dirvers
[01:03] <fccf> The_Beard: I am a little confused - you want to put what on your Plasma... where is the content coming from?
[01:03] <zortec> Ok, back to the minimal install for the third time to resize partitions... maybe I will get it right eventually
[01:03] <bertt> Dr_Willis_: its vista. i don't have any vista cd's, just the HP recovery partition... that i can't boot into
[01:03] <lakotajames> graelin:Well, it isn't exactly broken.  I just want it louder.  But if I want to make it louder, soundcard rather than speakers is what I need?
[01:03] <graelin> bertt: Try booting from the windows cd and do a repair... you may get lucky
[01:04] <The_Beard> fccf, as far as MythTV, i'm actually looking for hardware to stream it to the TV, not necessarily to stream FROM.
[01:04] <wistler> boot by the floppy and the after you are in free dos prompt  just right         fdisk  /mbr
[01:04] <TheFunkbomb> zaccour, on the 64bit version of 9.04, flash doesn't work right.
[01:04] <Dr_Willis_> bertt:  you need a vista cd then.. 98 wont work I think. ask in #windows
[01:04] <fccf> The_Beard: Wirelessly
[01:04] <RedSocrates> psyber: Hm.. Well, I had "random" freezing problems in X after upgrading to Jaunty with both an Intel card and an ATI card.  I fixed the second one by upgrading the kernel to 2.6.29.  I fixed the second by applying various fixes I found on a bug report (bug #359392 on Launchpad).
[01:04] <The_Beard> fccf, my stash of media currently residing on my linux machine...
[01:04] <bertt> graelin: no cd =( laptop didn't ship with any bc of vista crap methods
[01:04] <graelin> lakotajames: no.. I'd go with speakers.... powered of course
[01:04] <The_Beard> fccf, no, i am wired in the living area
[01:04] <zaccour> TheFunkbomb, whats wrong with 32 bit? everything "just works"
[01:04] <RedSocrates> psyber: You might look around on LaunchPad.  I know next to nothing about nvidia issues, though.  Are there any messages in any of your log files?
[01:04] <TheFunkbomb> I run a 64 bit system.
[01:04] <The_Beard> fccf, but like i said, right now i am trying to find good hardware to feed the TV =)
[01:04] <BattleTop> i run 64 too. faster.
[01:05] <psyber> RedSocrates: thats what I would like to start checking.  Not sure what log files I should be looking at.
[01:05] <wistler> other way is to download    iso   fom   GAG boot loader
[01:05] <fccf> The_Beard: probably slingbox
[01:05] <wistler> live cd
[01:05] <ActionParsnip> fccf: does slingbox work with ubuntu?
[01:06] <RedSocrates> psyber: I would check the Xorg logs in /var/log, as well as /var/log/messages and /var/log/kern.log, maybe also /var/log/syslog
[01:06] <RedSocrates> psyber: If this bug is anything like the freezes I was encountering, though, the logs will say nothing :-/
[01:06] <psyber> RedSocrates: Yeah, that is what I am expecting
[01:06] <fccf> ActionParsnip: slingbox only needs an network connection to the server which often is a NAS. but would work with a ubuntu server
[01:06] <TheFunkbomb> yeah, so either Ubuntu x64, Flash, or Firefox is completely messed up.
[01:07] <RedSocrates> psyber: If that's the case, and you don't find anything on Launchpad, your best bet is probably reporting the bug and seeing if anyone has suggestions
[01:07] <graelin> bertt: is there a hidden partition on it. Laptops usually have a recovery partition on them. Other than that fixmbr is an option but probly won't help since its seeing the bootloader and trying to load the file. If mbr was hosed, it'd most likely do nothing
[01:07] <Cpudan80> TheFunkbomb: the answer is always flash
[01:07] <ActionParsnip> fccf: nice
[01:07] <RedSocrates> psyber: If you know how to install the Ubuntu mainline kernels, you might also experiment with some of those.  Like I said, that fixed my issue with the ATI card (not with the Intel card, though)
[01:07] <Cpudan80> TheFunkbomb: Adobe has their head up their ...
[01:07] <Supermiguel> hey how can add sata support to virtualbox
[01:07] <bertt> graelin: there is an HP recovery partition. but i don't know how to get to it... i would be able to use grub.... if i had grub. haha
[01:07] <psyber> RedSocrates: humm.  I will consider trying that
[01:07] <Dr_Willis_> Supermiguel:  it has it allready last i looked....
[01:07] <RedSocrates> psyber: You could also try using the "vesa" driver in your /etc/X11/xorg.conf, if you don't want/need high-performance video
[01:08] <BattleTop> Well , was using Gnash flash player but some videos won't play.
[01:08] <fccf> ActionParsnip: & The_Beard: you may need to transcode to something the slingbox can read - depending on what format your media is in
[01:08] <Dr_Willis_> Supermiguel:  unless somthing is vague about what you are asking....
[01:08] <psyber> psyber:  vesa driver?
[01:08] <Supermiguel> Dr_Willis_, like all the drives that it create are IDE not sata
[01:08] <The_Beard> fccf, that's more of a "watch your tv content - anywhere" device... i'm looking for a "watch all of my content on one TV" device (like WDTV or AppleTV)
[01:08] <bertt> if i install ubuntu, do you all think i would be able to mount my vista partition from ubuntu to access my files?
[01:08] <BattleTop> vesa is the free graphics driver
[01:08] <lakotajames> graelin:  Ok, thanks.  And VLC does help quite a bit.  Thanks!
[01:08] <Ryan_Delaney> Question: In the repository there is no 64-bit version of a package that I want.  Is there someone I should inform of this?
[01:08] <Dr_Willis_> Supermiguel:   Ive added sata (or was it scsi) drives befor. (virtual drives) check the settings? why does it matter?
[01:09] <ActionParsnip> fccf: slingbox is used to stream cable tv over lan / wan dude
[01:09] <graelin> bertt: usually its a keycombo at boot. try f12 before bios completes. It may be an option in the bios as well.. worked on a dell business machine once that hid the recovery option until it was selected in bios
[01:09] <sHaMaR_nAtSaR> Got an issue
[01:09] <Supermiguel> Dr_Willis_, yes because i can only add 3 IDE drives, and with sata i can add.. 30 =)
[01:09] <fccf> ActionParsnip: slingbox can do a whole lot more than that
[01:09] <sHaMaR_nAtSaR> could use some help if any is willing
[01:09] <sHaMaR_nAtSaR> The issue is with Brasero
[01:09] <chuck_> The_Beard, if your looking for a media center pc look into mythbuntu or linuxmce
[01:09] <fccf> !ask > sHaMaR_nAtSaR
[01:10] <thedoctor> @bertt: Ubuntu has NTFS-3g driver. Yes.
[01:10] <psyber> RedSocrates:  would vessa support 1280x1024?
[01:10] <sHaMaR_nAtSaR> I've got an old skool mp3 player a Samsung 512mb
[01:10] <ActionParsnip> fccf: nice, thats all i need it for dude. i gots a file server with amarok xul :)
[01:10] <BattleTop> go ahead sHamaR.
[01:10] <The_Beard> chuck_, looking for a set top box to feed HDMI to my TV, streaming from my server
[01:10] <sHaMaR_nAtSaR> It reconizes it fine
[01:10] <BattleTop> yes
[01:10] <sHaMaR_nAtSaR> Just when trying to "grab tracks and burn them to disk"
[01:10] <RedSocrates> psyber: I think so, yes.  It will depend on the capabilities of your card, but it should be able to.
[01:10] <graelin> bertt: seems pretty silly to put a recovery partition on a drive w/o a means to use it.. but we're talking prefab lapcrap and winblows here
[01:10] <fccf> I got to go - back at 8pm pdst
[01:11] <RedSocrates> psyber: You can always try it and then switch back if it doesn't work.
[01:11] <sHaMaR_nAtSaR> It never finishes "Normalizing the Tracks"
[01:11] <fallore> I'm using Nvidia TwinView with dual monitors. I'd like to have apps on the right monitor show up on the right monitor's panel, etc. Is there a way to do this?
[01:11] <bertt> graelin: i hear you man. after i exhaust all my resources i'll give the F12 trick a go
[01:11] <sHaMaR_nAtSaR> Any tips?
[01:11] <Dr_Willis_> bertt:   In theory you could force grub to boot the partition by hand with the proper editing from the grub command line.
[01:11] <psyber> RedSocrates: humm I will be sure to check that out.  I don't use any desktop effects nor do I game with this system.  I just need a solid work station
[01:11] <BattleTop> sHaMaR: try to drag and drop them into a directory first, then burn them :) I had the same problem.
[01:11] <graelin> bertt: it could be another fx key too. The Dell was either f11 or 12
[01:12] <RedSocrates> psyber: In that case, vesa drivers should be fine.  You should just need to add, in /etc/X11/xorg.conf, under the "Device" section, the line: Driver "vesa"
[01:12] <RedSocrates> psyber: That might at least be a temporary solution while you investigate
[01:14] <lukilla> is ubuntu considered lunux
[01:14] <KB1JWQ> lukilla: No.
[01:14] <KB1JWQ> It IS considered linux, though.
[01:14] <RedSocrates> lukilla: No, but it's considered Linux
[01:14] <psyber> RedSocrates: so just adding that line will overide using nvidia drivers?
[01:14] <The_Beard> lukilla, ubuntu is linux.
[01:14] <KB1JWQ> RedSocrates: GET OUT OF MY HEAD. :)
[01:14] <lukilla> ok thank you
[01:14] <furtwed> Hi - Can't get into my NTFS partition - setup a dual boot - installed samba but still a no go - missing something ? ?
[01:14] <RedSocrates> KB1JWQ: ;)

[01:16] <mib_hmrjylj2> I am having trouble with the screen on my old dell latitude it is all glitchy when i finish the install can anyone help me PLEASE!!
[01:16] <The_Beard> Brilliant.

[01:16] <psyber> ugh

[01:16] <KB1JWQ> You have the magic.
[01:16] <mib_hmrjylj2> PLEASE HELP!!
[01:16] <bazhang> mib_hmrjylj2, stop that
[01:17] <elky> mib_hmrjylj2, please dont ask like that. it's very very rude and people will put you on ignore instead of helping.
[01:17] <RedSocrates> mib_hmrjylj2: Never do that again
[01:17] <KB1JWQ> Seriously, mib_hmrjylj2.  You've just alienated anyone with a passing interest in assisting you.
[01:17] <zortec> I'm going to install kde-desktop, ubuntu-desktop, and xfce-desktop.  I want to try them all out.
[01:17] <TheFunkbomb> I hear mib_hmrjylj2 is having trouble.
[01:17] <zortec> So I'm going to make the partition bigger this time.
[01:17] <furtwed> Need a point in the right direction on how to access my NTFS partition ?
[01:17] <RedSocrates> psyber: To answer your earlier question, yes, that line alone should do it
[01:18] <mib_hmrjylj2> okay sorry but can anyone help me
[01:18] <TheFunkbomb> Anyone have a problem with the 64 bit 10.0 r22 flash plugin causing a segment fault with Firefox when visiting sites like Youtube.com?
[01:18] <psyber> RedSocrates: great!  Thanks for all your help.  I appreciate it.
[01:18] <KB1JWQ> TheFunkbomb: No, can you get a backtrace?
[01:18] <ActionParsnip> mib_hmrjylj2: ask the room, it will reply if it can
[01:18] <RedSocrates> psyber: No problem, good luck with it
[01:18] <TheFunkbomb> KB1JWQ, a backtrace?
[01:18] <KB1JWQ> TheFunkbomb: Yeah, using strace or similar.
[01:18] <TheFunkbomb> no
[01:18] <The_Beard> !ask | mib_hmrjylj2
[01:18] <KB1JWQ> TheFunkbomb: Okay then. :)
[01:19] <TheFunkbomb> I have no idea what strace is
[01:19] <elky> The_Beard, he's already asked his problem.
[01:19] <TheFunkbomb> therefore, I cannot do it.
[01:19] <ActionParsnip> TheFunkbomb: how did you install the plugin?
[01:19] <zortec> Do you need a /home partition for wine?
[01:19] <furtwed> ActionParsnip, Can't read my NTFS part. - have samba installed - missing something - give me a clue ? ?
[01:19] <KB1JWQ> elky: No, he's complained loudly about a problem while providing no real detail.
[01:19] <zortec> I was going to install them outside of /home if I can
[01:19] <ActionParsnip> zortec: no, it is managed for you
[01:19] <unix> got a wierd question guys, i have a hdd thats ntfs format, and a bunch of music etc on it, but the sound doesnt work on anything on the hdd
[01:20] <The_Beard> elky, as far as everyone in this room is concerned, spamming does not count as asking.
[01:20] <elky> KB1JWQ, then prompt for detail, dont ask him to start repeating again.
[01:20] <ActionParsnip> furtwed: samba isnt used to read local ntf partitions, ntfs-3g is
[01:20] <ActionParsnip> !ntfs3g | furtwed
[01:20]  * KB1JWQ remembers why he doesn't come in here too often
[01:20] <elky> The_Beard, that was not spam. that was flooding. if you dont prompt for a different thing, you're just going to get it again anyway.
[01:20] <TheFunkbomb> ActionParsnip, there are three ways I tried.  One is from the Repos.  The second was from Synaptic.  The -nonfree locks up firefox and consumes all my CPU power.  The other way is direct from Adobe.  When I use 10.0 r22, it just closes out Firefox
[01:20] <geirha> zortec: Map whatever directory you like to D: in winecfg, then installing something to D: in wine will install it there
[01:20] <mib_hmrjylj2> i installed ubuntu on my old dell latitude and everything was working fine untill the graphical install came up and the screen got like double sided and glitchy. is my computer too slow?
[01:21] <ActionParsnip> TheFunkbomb: i run the plugin flawlessly by copying the .so file to ~/.mozilla/plugins
[01:21] <zortec> I also think instead of using a 3GB swap.  I'm going with a 1-2GB
[01:21] <zortec> I don't like to waste space
[01:21] <The_Beard> elky, you off your high horse yet? =)
[01:21] <elky> The_Beard, i suggest "we need more information. what model is the latitude" for a start.
[01:21] <The_Beard> Apparently not.
[01:21] <TheFunkbomb> ActionParsnip, I don't have a folder called ~/.mozilla/plugins
[01:21] <mib_hmrjylj2> hold on ill look
[01:22] <KB1JWQ> TheFunkbomb: Are you SURE? :)
[01:22] <furtwed> ActionParsnip, Thanks a bunch!
[01:22] <KB1JWQ> Realize dot folders don't show up by default.
[01:22] <TheFunkbomb> ActionParsnip, my plugins are stored in /usr/lib/mozilla...
[01:22] <psyber> RedSocrates: last question when enabling vesa drivers should I comment out the nvidia stuff in the devices section?
[01:22] <RedSocrates> psyber: Yes
[01:22] <unix> got a wierd question guys, i have a hdd thats ntfs format, and a bunch of music etc on it, but the sound doesnt work on anything on the hdd
[01:22] <elky> The_Beard, you're not helping anyone with that attitude.
[01:22] <Kalmi_> TheFunkbomb, how does flash die? does it play videos for a second?
[01:23] <zortec> There is a lot of mixed opinions on this, but I'll ask anyway
[01:23] <ActionParsnip> TheFunkbomb: its worth a try. i dont use the repos for flash, i just pull down the .so and whack it in the folder and *poof* it works
[01:23] <mib_hmrjylj2> Its a Dell Latittude C800
[01:23] <zortec> For a new user to ubuntu, do you recommend a /home?
[01:23] <mib_hmrjylj2> i can post a pic of what the screen problem looks like
[01:23] <zortec> If not, should I make my / about 50GB then?
[01:23] <RedSocrates> psyber: If you want to make sure that the vesa driver is the one that's loaded, check out /var/log/Xorg.0.log after restarting X.  It should say that it's loading the VESA driver
[01:23] <ActionParsnip> mib_hmrjylj2: did you md5 check the iso you burned as well as verify the cd once burned?
[01:23] <geirha> zortec: 10-15 GB for /, the rest for /home ... that's my setup
[01:23] <The_Beard> elky, says the guy attempting to berate someone in a public channel.
[01:24] <mib_hmrjylj2> i can post a pic of what the screen problem looks like/
[01:24] <Dr_Willi1_Arch> Hmmm
[01:24] <TheFunkbomb> Kalmi_, with the -nonfree plugin from the repos, some movies work, others do not.  The ones that don't just try to load and then gray out firefox.  Then npviewer.bin eats up my CPU.
[01:24] <mib_hmrjylj2> i can post a pic of what the screen problem looks like?
[01:24] <elky> The_Beard, says the op who got actual information out of the one you were being rude to.
[01:24] <mib_hmrjylj2> whoops sorry
[01:24] <zortec> geirha: Do I miss out on anything if I don't have a /home?
[01:24] <RedSocrates> mib_hmrjylj2: go ahead
[01:24] <mib_hmrjylj2> umm no i didnt do the checking should i have
[01:24] <Kalmi_> zortec, yes... :) it makes reinstalling easier if the user somehow manages to mess up his install
[01:24] <Dr_Willi1_Arch> Aparently virtualbox OSE edition. can only do IDE controllers.. the one from the Virtualbox site.. can do Scsi and sata controllers also.
[01:24] <The_Beard> elky, view it how you wish, I typed a simple !ask, and this is the result. A bit excessive don't you think?
[01:24] <ActionParsnip> mib_hmrjylj2: yes absolutely, you have no way of knowing the iso was downloaded correctly
[01:25] <crash> hi, i'm using ubuntu 9.04. is there any way to automatically reconnect my broadband connection after sudden disconnection.
[01:25] <ActionParsnip> !md5 | mib_hmrjylj2
[01:25] <TheFunkbomb> Kalmi_, with the plugin straight from the adobe, as soon as I go to youtube.com (the main page), FF closes.  If I go to an individual video page, it works fine...
[01:25] <mib_hmrjylj2> okay ill try it
[01:25] <The_Beard> elky, forget it, I'll see myself out for now. We are both arguing to no end. =) Have a good night.
[01:25] <elky> The_Beard, it was inappropriate. i explained why it was.
[01:25] <zortec> geirha, Kalmi_: If I'm going to do just do everything outside of home, you are saying 10-15GB, and I want to test gaming, shouldn't I go a bit bigger like 30-50GB?
[01:26] <Kalmi_> TheFunkbomb... stupid idea... but try disabling pulseaudio
[01:26] <Kalmi_> !sound  | TheFunkbomb
[01:26] <Kalmi_> zortec, you are not supposed to do anything outside home
[01:27] <geirha> zortec: Then maybe, 10-15 GB for /, 40 GB for /media/games, rest for /home
[01:27] <JediMaster> hey guys, I've got a weird bug, quite often when I alt-tab X seems to crash and restart putting me back at the gdm login, any ideas what's doing it?
[01:27] <zortec> Kalmi_: So if that's the case, I should create a 30-50GB for /home?
[01:27] <TheFunkbomb> Kalmi_, I'm already using Alsa.
[01:27] <chuck_> elkey just wondering why the floodbot let him get away with it
[01:27] <zortec> geirha: You can set up any partitions you want?
[01:28] <geirha> zortec: Yes. Any directory can be a separate partition
[01:28] <mib_hmrjylj2> if the iso is fine is there another solution to the screen issue http://up.mibbit.com/up/Zkl8zq5N.jpg here is a pic of what the screen looks like
[01:28] <Kalmi_> zortec, well... maybe having one big partition is just easier :)
[01:28] <neopsyche> hello
[01:28] <TheFunkbomb> I'm not messing with my sound.
[01:28] <neopsyche> IM not getting much help in squid channel
[01:28] <zortec> Kalmi_: If I go that route, then I'd have wine use that big partition for games? That is what I'm trying to figure out
[01:28] <neopsyche> does anyone know how I can..
[01:28] <anji> just wanted to say this: AAAARGH I hate windows .. got a virus by inserting a memory stick :X .. going back to Ubuntu now..
[01:28] <geirha> zortec: Yeah, Kalmi_ has a point. For your case, one big / partition would be easier
[01:29] <zortec> Kalmi_: I just don't want to run out of space on /home like I did
[01:29] <neopsyche> is it possible that i can create a cache of videos linked from my video site?
[01:29] <Kalmi_> zortec, "/home" will be part of "/" if you have only one partition
[01:29] <neopsyche> in other words, video site .. links to videos embedded from youtube etc.. specific videos on the site cached on ISP server for users of the site (but not other youtube videos)_
[01:29] <Bedon> best for format a partition for use by both linux and windows as NTFS right?
[01:30] <zortec> Kalmi_: Oh, I get it now... wine maps /home to the big partition
[01:30] <cabrey> zortec, forgive me if you have answered this already, but why not just one big /?
[01:30] <Kalmi_> zortec... well... not wine... but yes
[01:30] <fallore> i'm using nvidia Twinview and i'd like for windows on the left to show up on a panel on the bottom of the left screen and visa versa. is this possible?
[01:30] <Dr_Willis_> neopsyche:  not with squid i think.. i think it just caches the html type pages.. not large files..   but it might be able to cache downloads..
[01:30] <eseven73> The_Beard just do like me, don't help anymore; You cannot argue with an op, just let it go :D
[01:30] <zortec> cabrey: That is the way I planned to go, but I wanted to see if I have to upgrade say from 9.04 to 9.10, am I screwed without a /home?
[01:30] <Dr_Willis_> neopsyche:  but even then squid tries not to cache large things forever..
[01:30] <neopsyche> •Dr_Willis_• is there any way?
[01:30] <JediMaster> hmm, I turned the graphics down to no effects and alt-tabbing doesn't seem to crash any more
[01:30] <Kalmi_> zortec, you are not :)
[01:31] <neopsyche> •Dr_Willis_• yes.. i am looking for a solution for this
[01:31] <geirha> zortec: Only for reinstalling a separate /home is handy. For upgrading, it doesn't matter
[01:31] <Dr_Willis_> neopsyche:  i would say check the squid docs.  it might have some options to cach specific files for large sizes/times.
[01:31] <Dr_Willis_> neopsyche:  squid is very flexiable. :)
[01:31] <neopsyche> •Dr_Willis_• I am pleased it seems you understand exactly what I need
[01:31] <Dr_Willis_> neopsyche:  last iused it was 2 years ago.
[01:31] <cabrey> does anybody know of a way to set which wireless network should be connected to first from within network manager?
[01:31] <neopsyche> •Dr_Willis_• I really want to try set this up to test it
[01:31] <zortec> Kalmi, geirha: Ok, thanks and if you don't mind I have a few other questions that I've ran into problems with on ubuntu
[01:32] <Dr_Willis_> neopsyche:  it is handy for a home lan for  4+ machines. :) but ive never seen it used to cache youtube bvideos
[01:32] <eseven73> neopsyche, I like those dots around the nick; how do you do that?
[01:32] <Kalmi_> zortec, go on.. :)
[01:32] <zortec> Ubuntu doesn't recognize my cdrom... it's not showing up in /media/cdrom or /dev/cdrom and I'm not sure how to get the hardware working
[01:32] <neopsyche> •Dr_Willis_• I would like to set it up to keep the FLV files for at least 1 year
[01:32] <zortec> Also when doing the partitioning, does it matter if I use 3 primary partitions or should I use 1 primary and 2 logical?
[01:32] <Dr_Willis_> neopsyche:  good luck. :) time for some serious reading of the config files for squid
[01:32] <abe3k> ubuntu simply, ROCKS !
[01:32] <neopsyche> •Dr_Willis_• It could also check back to youtube.com etc.. to see if the file is still available each month and if not.. delete
[01:33] <Dr_Willis_> neopsyche:  google for 'squid cache flv' has a few hits. :)
[01:33] <Kalmi_> Dr_Willis_, youtube videos are not even cached for me by the browser :S
[01:33] <neopsyche> •Dr_Willis_• you think it could be done?
[01:33] <Supermiguel> hey when i try to start virtual box i get: failed to create the virtualbox com object in ubuntu
[01:33] <neopsyche> •Dr_Willis_• thanks
[01:33] <Kalmi_> !details | Supermiguel
[01:33] <Kalmi_> Supermiguel, full error please
[01:34] <cabrey> Supermiguel, have you added yourself to the virtualbox group?
[01:34] <Dr_Willis_> neopsyche:  and.. first google hit is a thread.. that points to the squid FAQ/docs// :) rtfming once again is the answer.. heh
[01:34] <Kalmi_> Supermiguel, we need that error message that is in CAPS...
[01:34] <Dr_Willis_> neopsyche:  http://wiki.squid-cache.org/ConfigExamples/DynamicContent/YouTube
[01:34] <Supermiguel> sudo usermod -a -G vboxusers miguel
[01:34] <Supermiguel> says VERR_ACCESS_DENIED
[01:34] <Jamed> zortec: it doesn´t matter if you do not want to have more than 4 partitions
[01:35] <cabrey> Supermiguel, try through the GUI
[01:35] <geirha> zortec: Ububntu doesn't care if partitions are on primary or logical partitions. Just remember there's a maximum of 4 primary partitions, and the extended counts as one primary.

[01:35] <Supermiguel> cabrey, im thats where i get the error
[01:35] <Kalmi_> zortec, how did you test the livecd than? if the cd is not working?
[01:35] <Supermiguel> cabrey, ohh ok let me try
[01:36] <Supermiguel> cabrey, yes im a group member
[01:36] <zortec> Kalmi_: I haven't been able to test any live cd... because of my graphics problem
[01:36] <zortec> Kalmi_: I had to use the minimal install cd which boots into the installer
[01:36] <cabrey> Supermiguel, try to start it from the terminal
[01:36] <cabrey> Supermiguel, VirtualBox, that is
[01:36] <craigbass1976> I'm uising system monitor to see why this computer is so slow, and the monitor says cpu usage is 100% pretty much all of the time
[01:36] <pianoboy3333> I'm currently in 8.04, and I just installed 9.04 on a brand new drive. However, I cannot seem to get internet in the 9.04 boot, while I can in this 8.04 boot, help?
[01:37] <cabrey> craigbass1976, switch to the process tab and see what is taking up resources
[01:37] <craigbass1976> pianoboy3333, wireless, or regular ethernet
[01:37] <pianoboy3333> craigbass1976: wireless
[01:37] <Petrosian_> boa noite
[01:38] <craigbass1976> pianoboy3333, what's your card?
[01:38] <pianoboy3333> lspci says: 05:04.0 Network controller: Texas Instruments ACX 100 22Mbps Wireless Interface
[01:39] <Kalmi_> 22Mbps... odd :)
[01:39] <Dr_Willis_> Needs Moar MPBS!
[01:39] <craigbass1976> pianoboy3333, I can't help a while bunch right now, but I'd start with putting "ACX 100" (in quotes) into google, along with ubuntu
[01:40] <craigbass1976> cabrey, nothing really.  Top however show xorg using 70 something % and gnome using another 20
[01:40] <pianoboy3333> dr_willis_: Kalmi_: what's the standard now? its a really old card, the computer came with a usb wireless device, but I had to use ndiswrapper a while ago and it was a mess, then it kept freezing
[01:40] <pianoboy3333> craigbass1976: alright, thanks
[01:40] <cabrey> craigbass1976, can you sort it by CPU usage
[01:40] <cabrey> craigbass1976, also, make sure all user processes are shown
[01:41] <Dr_Willis_> pianoboy3333:  no idea.. I rarely mess with wireless any more. :) either it works great.. or it dont.. and i use the wires i got ran all over the house. :)
[01:41] <craigbass1976> cabrey, I bet it's because I didn't fire up the system monitor as root...
[01:41] <Supermiguel> it will start as root but not ass the user
[01:41] <cabrey> craigbass1976, you can try that Alt-F2 gksu gnome-system-monitor
[01:42] <Kalmi_> pianoboy3333, 54 mbits...
[01:42] <pianoboy3333> haha
[01:42] <lukilla> when i try to download something it says:This link needs to opened with an application. why does it say this?
[01:42] <pianoboy3333> its an old a/b card
[01:42] <cabrey> Supermiguel, do you know if the virtualbox kernel was compiled?
[01:42] <Supermiguel> to open virtualbox i have to type sudo /usr/bin/VirtualBox, is there a way to make it where i just need to type virtualbox?
[01:43] <Supermiguel> cabrey, it was
[01:43] <chuck_> pianoboy3333, found this but your card is ancient as far as cards go http://acx100.sourceforge.net/
[01:43] <craigbass1976> cabrey, seems to be xorg
[01:43] <cabrey> !Xorg
[01:43] <craigbass1976> cabrey, what's normal usage for xorg
[01:43] <Dr_Willis_> Supermiguel:    the virtualbox in the repois dosent have sata or scsi controllers.. the one from the virtualbox site does.. I notice :)
[01:43] <cabrey> craigbass1976, low, there is a high cpu usage bug
[01:43] <cabrey> craigbass1976, let me find the link
[01:44] <threexk> How do you search for packages from command line?
[01:44] <lukilla> when i try to download something it says:This link needs to opened with an application. why does it say this?
[01:44] <pw-toxic> hi, is there a tool where i can read my cpu temperature?
[01:44] <jrib> !apt > threexk
[01:44] <Kalmi_> Supermiguel, add yourself to the vbox group and logout and log back in
[01:44] <arthus> after installing over, I can't find some of my needed data which shouldn't have been overwritten
[01:44] <jrib> !sensors | pw-toxic
[01:44] <arthus> how can I go about trying to recover it?
[01:44] <jrib> arthus: where was it...?
[01:45] <craigbass1976> pw-toxic, lmsensors
[01:45] <arthus> jrib: it was on its own partition, mounted at /var/www
[01:45] <Matson> how do I erase/reset the screen add-on thing from ubuntu?
[01:45] <jrib> arthus: does the partition still exist?
[01:45] <pianoboy3333> should the restricted drivers package be on the install cd? i know that it doesn't install by default, but does the cd have it, so that I can install the package off the cd as a repos?
[01:45] <threexk> jrib: I've looked at apt-get but it doesn't have a way to search.  Is dpkg what is needed?
[01:45] <Kalmi_> arthus, it is probably not mounted now
[01:45] <arthus> jrib: yes, but there's nothing in it
[01:45] <jrib> pianoboy3333: I think so
[01:45] <Matson> there is some added "profile" system that I want to not use
[01:45] <Kalmi_> pianoboy3333, no
[01:45] <lukilla> sorry it says it says:This link needs to opened with an application.Send to:  why does it say this?
[01:45] <pw-toxic> craigbass1976, apt-get cant find it
[01:45] <crash> anyone please help, how to automatically start broadband connection at startup?
[01:45] <Kalisto> can anyone point me to a tutorial on remote desktop with separate sessions?
[01:45] <arthus> Kalmi_: how would I go about remounting it?
[01:45] <Supermiguel> to open virtualbox i have to type sudo /usr/bin/VirtualBox, is there a way to make it where i just need to type virtualbox?
[01:45] <jrib> threexk: no, you need to read the link :)
[01:45] <losher> threexk: apt-cache search <some string>
[01:46] <losher> threexk: see also apt-file
[01:46] <pianoboy3333> Kalmi_: jrib: alright, well I'm gonna at least try modprobing acx, and see if that helps at all
[01:46] <Lovok> Supermiguel ; what you want to do is make an alias for that
[01:46] <lukilla> when i try to download something it says:This link needs to opened with an application.send to: why does it say this?
[01:46] <Kalmi_> Supermiguel, what do you need sata support for in vbox?
[01:46] <Dr_Willis_> Supermiguel:  err.. i dont have to do 'sudo' here.  Thats weird.. I am using the sun virtualbox package.. not virtalbox-ose version (thats the one in the repos)
[01:47] <Supermiguel> yep i got it working
[01:47] <Supermiguel> thanks all
[01:47] <Dr_Willis_> Supermiguel:  You are using OSE? or the one from Suns birtualbox site?
[01:47] <Supermiguel> i was using OSE
[01:47] <Supermiguel> but i just installed the one from the webste
[01:47] <Kalmi_> Supermiguel, Dr_Willis_: add yourself to the vbox group and logout and log back in... after that you will be able start vbox without sudo
[01:47] <Dr_Willis_> Supermiguel:  there is a special virtualbox GROUP also the users may need to be in.
[01:47] <cabrey> craigbass1976, https://wiki.ubuntu.com/X/Troubleshooting/HighCPU
[01:47] <craigbass1976> pw-toxic, lm-sensors?
[01:47] <Dr_Willis_> ;)
[01:48] <pianoboy3333> Kalmi_: should there be any restrictions on the account that I should change? I found when I went to the users/groups gui, that I originally had the checkbox next to "access wireless connections" unchecked
[01:48] <neopsyche> •Dr_Willis_• did you get pvt msg?
[01:48] <lukilla> i have a question
[01:48] <Kalmi_> pianoboy3333, dunno...
[01:48] <threexk> jrib, losher: apt-file looks to be what I needed, thanks.  (I am trying to search for packages not yet installed.)
[01:48] <FrozenFire> I have two disks, one is the Secondary Master (Ubuntu), the other is the Primary Slave (Windows XP). Is there a guide somewhere on how to configure GRUB to boot XP? (The guides I've found have assumed they are on the same disk, under different partitions)
[01:48] <Dr_Willis_> neopsyche:  nope.. i got them all basically blocked.. :)
[01:48] <jrib> threexk: apt-file doesn't do that
[01:48] <pianoboy3333> Kalmi_: alright, I'll bb
[01:48] <jrib> threexk: apt-cache search does that
[01:48] <neopsyche> ok
[01:48] <pw-toxic> craigbass1976, yes i found it ;) thanks ;) it works
[01:49] <crash> please anyone, how to automatically connect broadband at startup?
[01:49] <pw-toxic> craigbass1976, now there is temp1  temp2 and temp3.. how do i know what is what?
[01:49] <Ryan_Delaney> Question: In the repository there is no 64-bit version of a package that I want.  Is there someone I should inform of this?
[01:49] <Dr_Willis_> neopsyche:  and all i know on squid - is very little.. and covered in the squid docs. :)
[01:49] <jrib> Ryan_Delaney: what package?
[01:49] <Kalmi_> arthus, find the partition for it using gparted... you are looking for something like /dev/sda4
[01:49] <Ryan_Delaney> jrib: zsnes
[01:49] <neopsyche> •Dr_Willis_• what do you think... of this .. could it work? .. http://cachevideos.com/
[01:49] <koshari> FrozenFire look at your devices.list file, this will interpret the real drive/partitions against grubs entryd
[01:49] <craigbass1976> pw-toxic, no idea; I aint used lmsensors in a couple years
[01:49] <jrib> Ryan_Delaney: bugs.ubuntu.com, but my guess is it doesn't build on 64bit
[01:49] <Lovok> lukilla ; what's your question?
[01:50] <lukilla> when i try to download something it says:This link needs to opened with an application. why does it say this?
[01:50] <Dr_Willis_> neopsyche:  no idea on what can work. From what i read those videos sites do specific things to 'break' caching of their videos..
[01:50] <jrib> !repeat | lukilla
[01:50] <Lovok> lukilla ; what are you trying to download?
[01:50] <Kalmi_> jrib, he didn't repeat it...
[01:50] <lukilla> when i try to download something it says:This link needs to opened with an application. why does it say this?
[01:50] <LinuxNIT> is there a setting i can adjust so that when i maximize a window it expands underneath the gnome-panel?
[01:50] <Dr_Willis_> neopsyche:   try it and see is all you can do i guess.
[01:50] <lukilla> a game
[01:50] <jrib> Kalmi_: that's the 10th time I read that question in the last 5 minutes
[01:51] <Lovok> lukilla ; if it is an .exe, you will probably have to run it in Wine
[01:51] <neopsyche> •Dr_Willis_• Thanks ;-)
[01:51] <lukilla> how do i do this
[01:51] <chuck_> crash, in network-manager under edit connectios  broadband tap, edit should be a box for auto connect
[01:51] <lukilla> not how i mean where is the wine tool
[01:51] <knoxville> does poptop allow for multiple client connections?
[01:52] <xcerca> what program could i use to show cpu/gpu/mobo temps in the taskbar ?
[01:52] <Kalmi_> jrib, ok.. sorry... I just automatically ignored it everytime... because I couldn't make heads or tails of it...
 when i try to download something it says:This link needs to opened with an application. why does it say this? Because you have yet to follow the direction given to you 3hrs ago?
[01:52] <never2far> is there any way to find what user is using hdd ? ...for ex: if i see in top wa 100% ...to see who's the one that is using 100 % of hdd ...at least what process
[01:52] <Lovok> lukilla ; you can look for it in the repositories, or type "sudo apt-get install wine" in the terminal
[01:52] <Kalmi_> lukilla, just click save instead of open
[01:52] <jrib> xcerca: what is taskbar?
[01:53] <cabrey> LinuxNIT, do you want to utilize all the space of your screen?
[01:53] <lukilla> i did click save
[01:53] <cabrey> !maximus
[01:53] <Kalmi_> jrib, xcerca:... I assume he meant gnome-panel
[01:53] <jrib> Kalmi_: probably, but I never assume anything in this channel
[01:54] <xcerca> yea , the gnome- panel
[01:54] <xcerca> could conky do somthing like that if propely configured ?
[01:54] <Lovok> lukilla ; what game is it? what is the file extension? (example : .exe, .tar.gz, etc)
[01:55] <sere> im on 8.04 and i relize ithe repos arent up to date??? what should i do
[01:55] <lukilla> .exe
[01:55] <lukilla> it's maple story
[01:55] <xcerca> sere ,  just get 9.04
[01:55] <Lovok> lukilla ; you will need Wine to run that
[01:55] <RORgasm> guys where do u define your vhosts in apache....which conf file?
[01:55] <sere> xcerca:  never\
[01:55] <lukilla> ok
[01:55] <threexk> jrib: ah, I see it now.  The "package cache" is an index of the package repository stored locally?  (Can't find a definition of "package cache".)
[01:55] <Flannel> sere: What do you mean not up to date?
[01:56] <Jack_Sparrow> sere Repos not up to date.. Ubuntu tends to provide tried and tested software instead of the bleeding edge.. Read up on backports and proposed repos..
[01:56] <LinuxNIT> cabrey, yes
[01:56] <Scunizi> sere: in terminal type.. sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade
[01:56] <LinuxNIT> cabrey, and i dont want to hide the panel
[01:56] <jrib> threexk: yes
[01:56] <Lovok> lukilla ; as of april 2007, the game does not run in ubuntu, so you may be out of luck
[01:56] <eightbitz> need some help with wireles
[01:57] <Lovok> lukilla : http://appdb.winehq.org/objectManager.php?sClass=version&iId=6053&iTestingId=10665
[01:57] <losher> sere: what do you mean 'the repos aren't up to date'?
[01:57] <sere> i dont want to upgrade lol i want the lts.... i just wanna the newer 9.04 software
[01:57] <cabrey> LinuxNIT, you might want to look into maximus
[01:57] <never2far> if i see in top wa 100%..is there any way to see what process is using 100 % of hdd ?
[01:57] <Jack_Sparrow> sere Look at backports
[01:57] <broken__> Hi again everyone
[01:57] <sere> Jack_Sparrow:  8.04 backports?
[01:58] <Jack_Sparrow> sere yes
[01:58] <usser> !backports
[01:58] <lukilla> ok thank you
[01:58] <LinuxNIT> cabrey, is that a package or an option?
[01:58] <sere> Jack_Sparrow: can i add it in the synaptic
[01:58] <Jack_Sparrow> sere yes
[01:58] <cabrey> LinuxNIT, a package
[01:59] <cabrey> LinuxNIT, it will automatically maximize every window
[01:59] <LinuxNIT> hmm
[01:59] <LinuxNIT> cabrey, not quite what i had in mind
[01:59] <eightbitz> can anyone help or guide me.  I have a linksys wmp11 pci card.  My only internet connection is wireless.
[01:59] <cabrey> LinuxNIT, well you could delete a panel
[01:59] <cabrey> LinuxNIT, so you only have one left & autohide that
[02:00] <cabrey> LinuxNIT, are you on a netbook?
[02:00] <LinuxNIT> cabrey, i only have one at the moment
[02:00] <LinuxNIT> no
[02:00] <cabrey> the Netbook Remix does exactly what you're describing
[02:00] <cabrey> except it's for netbooks
[02:01] <LinuxNIT> right... well i dont want every window to open that way, i just dont want the resistance that the panel gives to moving windows and i dont want it to save the space :-/
[02:01] <jamiejackson> hi all. i can't seem to get my onboard sound card set up on ubuntu 9.04, is there someone that can help me work through this?
[02:01] <eugo> okey my wifi isnt working from install
[02:01] <steve_> Hi - Setup a new user but does not have Admin rights - How do I change this?
[02:01] <cabrey> LinuxNIT, well I have another possibility for you
[02:01] <Pixels> how can I totally remove evolution?
[02:02] <cabrey> LinuxNIT, you can make it so that windows can be moved above the panel
[02:02] <RORgasm> guys where do u configure virtual hosts in apache?
[02:02] <Pixels> !removing evolution
[02:02] <lorph> hello where do I store my OpenSSL certificates?
[02:02] <LinuxNIT> ok
[02:02] <eugo> iwconfig shows eth1 as prism 1, in the networks on the top it shows wireless greyd out
[02:03] <cabrey> LinuxNIT, do you use compiz?
[02:03] <LinuxNIT> cabrey, yes
[02:03] <Hilikus> is there an app to burn dvds that will take care of splitting files if they don't fit in a disk??
[02:03] <Pixels> how can I totally remove evolution? but nothing else
[02:03] <thebackwash> hilikus: is it for a backup?
[02:03] <steve_> cabrey, How do I change permissions for this account - Is not Admin rights?
[02:03] <cabrey> LinuxNIT, open up the configuration editor (Applications > System Tools)
[02:03] <cabrey> LinuxNIT, or gconf-editor in terminal
[02:03] <RORgasm> lorph, i think its in /etc/ssl/certs
[02:03] <Pixels> Hilikus: tried Gnomebaker?
[02:04] <Bedon> anyone here have experience dual booting ubuntu with 7?
[02:04] <LinuxNIT> cabrey, ok
[02:04] <Pixels> Bedon: yes, use OSL2000
[02:04] <cabrey> steve_, System > Administration > Users and Groups
[02:04] <tenderruffian> hello everyone. first time ubuntu user. need some help.
[02:04] <cabrey> LinuxNIT, expand apps > compiz > plugins > move > allscreens
[02:04] <Hilikus> thebackwash yes, but i actually backup to disk and then burn into dvds so it is just like burning regular files, it is just that for say the second session i have only 1GB left in the disk and the backup is say 2GB so it won't fit but i don't want to waste the extra empty space
[02:05] <Pixels> how and where do I remove unwanted applications? e.g Opneofffice, Evolution etc?
[02:05] <Dr_Willis_> Bedon:  it works fine. for me.
[02:05] <Jack_Sparrow> tenderruffian http://www.ubuntupocketguide.com/download_main.html      is handy to have around
[02:05] <cabrey> Pixels, System > Administration > Synaptic Package Manager
[02:05] <Dr_Willis_> Bedon:  same as with the other windows versions...
[02:05] <LinuxNIT> cabrey, ok
[02:05] <Hilikus> Pixels afaik gnomebaker will just complain that there is not enough space in the disk
[02:05] <Jack_Sparrow> Pixels synaptic  but be aware of meta-packages etc.
[02:05] <Hilikus> and stop
[02:06] <cabrey> LinuxNIT, click on options, then in the key panel, de-select the checkbox for constrain_y
[02:06] <tenderruffian> thank you, jack.
[02:06] <LinuxNIT> ok
[02:06] <Hilikus> i need something that fills the remaining space and puts the rest on a new disk
[02:06] <steve_> cabrey, ok - will look at that thanks
[02:06] <Pixels> cabrey: when I go to Synaptic Package Manager, theres dozens of evolution references.
[02:06] <Bedon> i couldnt get grub to work, was giving me an error 18 every time i tried to load windows, and was trying to use easyBCD but dont think that was installing right
[02:06] <Pixels> Jack_Sparrow: whats meta-packages ?
[02:06] <Jack_Sparrow> Hilikus Make sure it is not needing hard drive space to create the burn image.  That can eat up your free drive space in a hurry
[02:06] <thebackwash> I was going to say make an iso, and use the split command, and the write the info to the cds using cdrecord.  when you need to put everything back together, you can use cat and then you have an iso again, but that's all fragile, and probably a pain in the butt for most people
[02:07] <threexk> Is it just me, or does dpkg -l *search_term* show three garbage lines at the top?
[02:07] <cabrey> Pixels, there are many companion packages for evolution, just uninstall the main one (look at the descriptions)
[02:07] <Pixels> it says "CANNOT REMOVE EVOLUTION"
[02:07] <LinuxNIT> cabrey, ok thanks thats better :)
[02:07] <Pixels> maybe it should say "REFUSE TO REMOVE EVOLUTION" lol
[02:07] <Hilikus> Jack_Sparrow thats ok, like i said, i dont backup directly to dvd, i just do a hdd file backup and then i MANUALLY burn the files. i found out the hard way that backing up straight to dvd is a pain
[02:07] <ha1331_> is there way to set some application to be "always on visible workspace", permanently?
[02:08] <matt__> I am having some trouble with pbbuttonsd on an eMac.  The Xubuntu jaunty LiveCD worked fine with my Apple keyboard's volume and eject keys, but the installation from the same LiveCD session does not seem to recognize them.
[02:08] <cabrey> Pixels, that's because ubuntu-desktop depends on evolution
[02:08] <Jack_Sparrow> Pixels Please lose the caps
[02:08] <cabrey> Pixels, you're not allowed to remove it
[02:08] <cabrey> Pixels, sorry just remembered
[02:08] <Flannel> cabrey, Pixels: of course you are.  ubuntu-desktop can be safely removed
[02:08] <matt__> I have checked pbbuttonsd.conf and the settings are exactly the same on both the LiveCd and the installation.
[02:08] <Pixels> cabrey: I am now allowed? :)  I run an OS that tells me what I must do? lol
[02:09] <cabrey> Flannel, there is a possibility that removing ubuntu-desktop will break updates
[02:09] <matt__> I have tried various search queries and could not find any answer.
[02:09] <Pixels> Flannel: how do I remove evolution then?
[02:09] <cabrey> *possibility*
 Flannel, there is a possibility that removing ubuntu-desktop will break updates <-- is that a fact, or an assumption?
[02:09] <aaron_> Pixels, apt-get --purge remove evolution
[02:09] <losher> threexk: I see a 3 line header, but no garbage...
[02:09] <crash_> please help, my internet is disconnecting again and again, how to set it to auto reconnect.
[02:10] <Flannel> Pixels: Its a fact.
[02:10] <Pixels> is "sudo apt-get --purge remove evolution" Safe?
[02:10] <Lovok> does the swap partition always have to be at the end of a harddrive?
[02:10] <threexk> losher: strange header.  It doesn't seem informative?
[02:10] <Flannel> cabrey: No, it won't break updates.
[02:10] <matt__> I suspect that it is the keyboard setting.  However, I do not know how to change the global keyboard settings (as opposed to those for X).
[02:10] <aaron_> crash, edit /etc/network/interfaces
[02:10] <Pixels> Flannel: what about apt-get --purge remove evolution.. will that break anything?
[02:10] <Jack_Sparrow> Lovok no
[02:10] <Flannel> Pixels: Nope
[02:10] <crash_> Lovok: no it's not compulsory
[02:10] <chuck_> eightbitz, there is no support for your card in linux you have to use the ndiswrapper driver in the repo's it is a temp fix as far as i am concerned until you can get a linux supported card http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-7319.html
[02:11] <Flannel> Pixels: although, you may also want to remove evolution-common
[02:11] <Pixels> Flannel: ok well thats what I will do then... sudo apt-get --purge remove evolution
[02:11] <Lovok> crash_ : but it is necessary, YES?
[02:11] <Bedon> Pixels: OSL2000 ran but when i try to boot from the linux partition with it it does nothing....that mean my grub got messed up?
[02:11] <Lovok> caps :/
[02:11] <Pixels> Flannel: ok
[02:11] <losher> threexk: that doesn't make it garbage. This is garbage: wkd984y954ngkrgir49340e2o><M>MLMOP
[02:11] <Pixels> Bedon: OSL2000 is a boot manager
[02:11] <Pixels> Bedon: i douth you installed it lol
[02:11] <threexk> losher: hehe, OK.  Thanks, at least I know it's not something I have screwed up
[02:11] <Pixels> Bedon: use SuperGrub boot CD
[02:12] <Pixels> replaces Grub
[02:12] <stew> Lovok: no, it is not necessary
[02:12] <Lovok> thanks
[02:12] <crash> No, it's not. i've configured my hard drive to have 2 NTFS volume in beginning and one after my swap and ext3 partition
[02:12] <Pixels> Bedon: OSL2000 works like a charm for me
[02:12] <cabrey> Flannel, http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=353973
[02:12] <losher> threexk: somewhere there's a man page I'm sure (which I've never read)
[02:12] <cabrey> Flannel, that's where I got my info :)
[02:12] <Flannel> cabrey: upgrade-manager takes care of all that
[02:12] <Bedon> yeah i get to the menu at startup try to boot to the linux drive and just sits there
[02:13] <cabrey> Flannel, alright I'll trust you b/c you have more experience :)
[02:13] <Pixels> Flannel: ok!  removed evolution-common and evolition.. anything else?
[02:13] <mattgyver> !vnc
[02:13] <Replop> hi
[02:13] <mattgyver> !tightvnc
[02:13] <Flannel> Pixels: that's all of the big stuff, if not everything
[02:15] <Pixels> Flannel: since that, I now get this: W: Duplicate sources.list entry http://packages.medibuntu.org jaunty/free Packages (/var/lib/apt/lists/packages.medibuntu.org_dists_jaunty_free_binary-i386_Packages)

[02:15] <bert1> if i have an ative compact disc recordable CD-R (52x/700MB/80Min) can i burn a dvd to it, or do i need special DVD cds?
[02:16] <stew> cabrey: the way it "breaks upgades" is that, he wants to have "all of gnome except evolution"  without the meta-package, when he upgrades to the next release, where "all of gnome" contains some new app that the current release don't contain, he wont get that application he never had installed automatically installed.
[02:17] <cabrey> stew, ahh I got ya
[02:17] <Pixels> am I safe to ignore "recommended updates"?
[02:17] <Hilikus> is there an app to burn dvds that will take care of splitting files if they don't fit in a disk so that if i have 600MB left in a disk it will split a 1.6GB file into a 600MB file (to fill the old disk) and put the extra 1GB in a new disk??
[02:17] <Pixels> Flannel: last removal.. how I remove OO?
[02:18] <Flannel> Pixels: Same way.
[02:18] <simcop2387> anyone have any idea how well SATA hot swapping works?
[02:18] <Pixels> Flannel: same as "sudo apt-get remove --purge OO" ?
[02:18] <Flannel> Pixels: Nah, it's openoffice.org or some variation thereof.  Synaptic will work fine for finding it.
[02:18] <Flannel> Pixels: (and removing it)
[02:18] <felix_> Hilikus, download hacha
[02:18] <Pixels> Flannel: ok
[02:19] <Hilikus> felix_ is that just to split or to burn as well?
[02:19] <felix_> Hilikus, just to split
[02:19] <fallore> i'm using nvidia Twinview and i'd like for windows on the left to show up on a panel on the bottom of the left screen and visa versa. is this possible?
[02:20] <felix_> Hilikus, you can pack the files in parts too with zip..
[02:20] <Hilikus> oh really? will the unzipper notice that there is a piece missing and ask for the rest?
[02:20] <Joeseph> Hi.  I'm connected to the internet on my desktop via ndiswrapper on a wg111t dongle.   However, I have trouble connecting to my network, and when the network manager does say that I am connected, I am not even connected to my local network. (I can't ping my router.)  This happened after I reinstalled the drivers after I upgraded to Jaunty.   Any ideas?
[02:20] <matt__> Is this disk image bootable?
[02:21] <felix_> Hilikus, if some part is not present during decompression you won't see any
[02:21] <sere> Jack_Sparrow: u still there?
[02:21] <losher> bert1: you sound a bit confused about the technology. You can burn files to CD-R or to DVD-R if your burner supports both. But a DVD-R will hold about 6 times the amount of data (about 4.3GB) that a CD-R will hold, so they aren't interchangeable and the contents of a DVD simply won't fit on a CD
[02:21] <crus> Guys, was getting an error like "EXT4-fs: ext4_check_descriptors: Block bitmap for group 640 not in group (block<PHONE_NUMBER>)" so i ran sudo fsck -fp /dev/sdc1 followed by sudo e2fsck -b 32768 /dev/sdc1.. seems to have fixed it.. and df -h is showing the data on the mount but i cant see anything when i do an ls inside the mount
[02:21] <Hilikus> felix_ i wont see any what?
[02:22] <stxing> irc.debian.org
[02:22] <felix_> Hilikus, you need all parts to decompress em.
[02:22] <Jack_Sparrow> sere Yes.. But not for long
[02:22] <bert1> losher: you're right, i'm confused. my question is will the physical round plastic orange disc sitting in front of me that i can throw like a frisbee be able to handle like 6.4 GB if i burn it as a DVD? sorry if i sound ignorant (its bc i am)
[02:23] <huyens> isn't there a way to "poll" the best software/hardware on this IRC server in a different channel?
[02:23] <Jack_Sparrow> !poll
[02:23] <sere> Jack_Sparrow: i did what you said and still no luck with granule and others....can i just add 9.04 repos?
[02:23] <huyens> thanks
[02:23] <Pixels> Flannel: can I safely use Ubuntu for netbanking etc, without installing all the "recommended updates"?  All I installed were all the recent "Important updates", Is that enough to keep Ubuntu safe?
[02:23] <Joeseph> Right now, my network manager tells me I'm connected to the internet, but in reality, I'm not even on my local network.  Any ideas?
[02:24] <Hilikus> felix_ i know, but what im wondering is if the "container" will know that it is a split file, because i was going to split the file with "split" but if i do that there is nothing in the file indicating that it is not a full file but a piece (unless i make the filename mention that)
[02:24] <Jack_Sparrow> bert1 a cd is supposed to hold 700 meg single layer dvd at 4.7 or so and I dont know about dbl layer
[02:24] <dj_segfault> Joseph, wired or wireless?
[02:24] <Joeseph> dj_segfault: It is a wg111t wireless dongle.
[02:24] <Hilikus> felix_ whereas i think with a zip file it will know and actually ask for the rest when unzipping
[02:24] <matt__> Dual-layer discs hold 8.5 GB Jack_Sparrow
[02:25] <Jack_Sparrow> ty
[02:25] <dj_segfault> Joseph: what does iwconfig say?
[02:25] <Pixels> did Flannel leave?
[02:25] <Pixels> Jack_Sparrow: do you know?
[02:25] <bert1> Jack_Sparrow - so, like, if you want to burn a DVD and you are at best-buy, do you buy special DVD cds? is there a difference in the size allowed on the CD, or just in the files and way you burn to the CD?
[02:25] <huyens> is the HCL list located at: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/HardwareSupportComponentsWirelessNetworkCardsIntel#miniPCI       a good way to see if your mini-pci-E card will work?
[02:25] <cabrey> Pixels, he's here
[02:25] <felix_> Hilikus, with hacha you get parts from a file and can give a different name. zip parts has partXXX extension (i think). rar has .rar for the first and rXX for next (being XX numbers from 0-9)
[02:25] <Joeseph> dj_segfault: Hold on, I got "disconnected"  again, let me reconnect....
[02:26] <Pixels> cabrey:  would you know? you experienced in ubuntu as much as jack and Flannel ?
[02:26] <Hilikus> felix_ oh cool, but it looks like it is not free, is it?
[02:26] <cabrey> Pixels, what's your question?
[02:26] <losher> bert1: if its a CD blank, the maximum content is about 750M. If it's a DVD blank, the maximum is about 4.3GB. There are dual-layer DVD blanks that will hold about 8.6GB. They are not interchangeable. You must buy the correct kind of blanks, and also your burner must support the kind you buy. To hold 6.4GB you'd need a single DVD-dual, or a pair of DVD-Rs, or about 8 CD-Rs
[02:26] <Jack_Sparrow> bert1 cd and dvd are very different.  use the right one for each purpose, cd can be audio or data or bootable etc.
[02:26] <Pixels> cabrey: can I safely use Ubuntu for netbanking etc, without installing all the "recommended updates"?  All I installed were all the recent "Important updates", Is that enough to keep Ubuntu safe?
[02:26] <tenderruffian> so i went through the pocket guide, and i'm having a very specific issue that he's not really going into detail about...
[02:27] <dj_segfault> Hey.  I'm having trouble getting MythTV working, but I think it's an apache configuration issue.  I'm very confused about how Ubuntu has the various apache directories laid out.  Can I ask about that here?
[02:27] <mattgyver> Does anyone have a guide to installing vnc on 9.04?
[02:27] <Jack_Sparrow> tenderruffian We are here to help
[02:27] <bert1> losher: ah! thank you. exactly what i was asking. Jack_Sparrow: ok, got it, thanks
[02:27] <cabrey> Pixels, Important Updates are urgent security updates, while recommended updates are usually bug fixes and features
[02:27] <tenderruffian> wonderful.
[02:27] <Pixels> dj_segfault: many ppl have trouble with MythTV
[02:27] <felix_> Hilikus, im not too deep in other compresions as bzip or tar, etc. dunno if they can split. thats why i recommended zip or rar. you can download the manager from the repositories
[02:27] <tenderruffian> well, i am having problem getting wifi to work on my ubuntu installed laptop
[02:27] <Pixels> cabrey: so is that a Yes or a No? lol
[02:27] <Jack_Sparrow> !wifi
[02:27] <Hilikus> felix_ excellent, thanks
[02:27] <tenderruffian> and i'm trying ndiswrapper and i'm not sure how to get it to work.
[02:27] <Jack_Sparrow> tenderruffian I dont mean to spam you with factoids , but they do help
[02:28] <Pixels> can I run Ubuntu from Windows? using uwiki or something?>
[02:28] <Wormik> Where can I download repository on ISO for 9.04 AMD64?
[02:28] <cabrey> Pixels, I guess it is a yes, but I don't understand why you don't update everything.
[02:28] <tenderruffian> they are kind of helping, i found out about ndiswrapper from the pocket guide
[02:28] <Kalmi_> !wubi | Pixels
[02:28] <Pixels> cabrey: because im on a monthly quota. only get 6GB per month
[02:28] <tenderruffian> just, when i click the executable, it's not doing anything.
[02:28] <Joeseph> dj_segfault: Sorry, It's not connecting, I'll restart ....  my usual means of reconnecting without restrting froze on me. (sudo modprobe -r ndiswrapper; sudo modprobe ndiswrapper)
[02:28] <Jack_Sparrow> tenderruffian see the one on wifi
[02:28] <losher> dj_segfault: the webmyth portion is optional. Does all the other stuff work yet via mythfrontend?
[02:28] <Wormik> Or can I use debpartial script from Windows...
[02:28] <rkymtndave_> pixels: use virtual box its free
[02:29] <Pixels> does wubi break windows vista or compromise the security of Ubuntu?
[02:29] <dj_segfault> Pixels: MythTV is working great.  Problem is MythWeb apache configuration is causing a directory listing when it should be running (I think) mythweb.pl.  I think perl is not working in it.
[02:29] <neopsyche> Dr_Willis Can you help me regarding squid.. i am wondering how exactly it works
[02:29] <cabrey> Pixels, then you should be good. Common sense is one of the best tools :)
[02:29] <mr_frostee> I read that Linux Mint is based on Ubuntu 9.04.  If anyone here has experience with Mint, is there a big difference good or bad?
[02:29] <tenderruffian> ok.
[02:29] <Pixels> rkymtndave_: im using virtualbox right now.. Vista is my host and ubuntu guest.. I jus thought wubi would be better, no?
[02:29] <dj_segfault> losher: Yeah, MythTV proper works fine, but I need MythWeb too.
[02:29] <Jack_Sparrow> !mint > mr_frostee
[02:29] <sproaty> I'm having a really annoying problem on 9.04 64bit with flash (which also occurred on 8.10)....Flash works, but say, after 20 mins of having Firefox and viewing flash videos, they just stop loading, leaving me with a blank space where the video should be
[02:29] <earthlander_> Anyone know where to get the drivers for creative soundblaster X-Fi?
[02:29] <dj_segfault> Joeseph: Connected or not, iwconfig should output something.
[02:29] <nibsa1242b> In bit pim, what do I have to do to make it see my phone? My phone is compatible, and the Bluetooth Preferences in the taskbar sees my phone just fine.
[02:29] <tenderruffian> i was looking at the documentation page before, again
[02:29] <rkymtndave_> wubi is prety resource intensive
[02:29] <sproaty> I installed flash from the extras repository via apt.
[02:30] <tenderruffian> i'm having trouble finding some things in terms of specifics
[02:30] <Pixels> rkymtndave_: im runniung xchat from Ubuntu right now, through virtualbox... so wubi wouldnt be better?
[02:30] <chuck_> tenderruffian, try this http://wiki.debian.org/NdisWrapper
[02:30] <felix_> mr_frostee, im using gNewSense right now. i like it better than ubuntu
[02:30] <losher> dj_segfault: the hard part is over then.  Download and build newest ALSA. Use Giftwrap program to build DEB
[02:31] <Pixels> Kalmi_: so what would I use?  A seperate 20GB partiton ok?
[02:31] <Kalmi_> Pixels, yes
[02:31] <Joeseph> dj_segfault: Do you want all of my iwconfig, or just the pertinent info? (as in the wlan0 info)
[02:31] <chuck_> tenderruffian, try they link i sent you it is a walk thru
[02:31] <tenderruffian> okay..
[02:31] <rkymtndave_> pixels: not sure about that, dont think so
[02:31] <Pixels> Kalmi_: when I need to reboot everytime I want to load Ubuntu?
[02:31] <dj_segfault> losher: I just rebuilt my server, replacing Fedora 8 with Jaunty AMD64
[02:31] <geirha> Pixels, Kalmi_: Sure you can use the NTFS partition from wubi, it's mounted at /host
[02:32] <Pixels> I think i will stick with Virtualbox then :)
[02:32] <Wormik> Can I download ISO images with repository of Ubuntu 9.04 AMD64?
[02:32] <cabrey> Pixels, when using wubi? Yes, you have to reboot into Ubuntu
[02:32] <Pixels> geirha: how is wubi better than runnung ubuntu as a guest using Virtualbox?
[02:32] <tenderruffian> i think i might need something a little more basic than this, hah.
[02:32] <Joeseph> dj_segfault: If it helps any, I am connected to the internet for about 5 seconds after it initially connects.
[02:32] <dj_segfault> Joeseph: just wlan0
[02:32] <Kalmi_> Pixels, you can use the nice 3d stuff in wubi
[02:32] <dj_segfault> Joeseph: There's connected, and there
[02:32] <Pixels> Kalmi_: hehe ok :)
[02:33] <geirha> Pixels: I'd recommend installing ubuntu properly rather than wubi.
[02:33] <cabrey> Kalmi_, actually virtualbox has gained support for 3D
[02:33] <tenderruffian> i am a first time linux user with no programming experience..
[02:33] <dj_segfault> Joeseph: There's connected, and there
[02:33] <losher> dj_segfault: I have mythweb working on 8.04/32/Intel. I had trouble with the scripts & passwords initially, of course...
[02:33] <cabrey> Kalmi_, not as good as native tho
[02:33] <nibsa1242b> how do I give Bitpim permission to use my bluetooth adapter to connect to my phone?
[02:33] <Kalmi_> cabrey, but compiz still doesn't work in it, does it?
[02:33] <dj_segfault> Joeseph: There's connected, and ther's getting an IP address.  Can you look at your logs for DHCP stuff?
[02:33] <cabrey> Kalmi_, compiz does work inside virtualbox
[02:33] <Pixels> geirha: I cannot, as the alternative install wouldnt let me install whilst Vista is on C:
[02:33] <cabrey> Kalmi_, you have to make sure to install the additions
[02:33] <Kalmi_> cabrey, oh... wow... I'm getting outdated :D
[02:34] <matt__> Could someone please help me with my pbbuttonsd issue that I mentioned earlier?
[02:34] <Kalmi_> cabrey, thx for the info
[02:34] <cabrey> Kalmi_, of course a virtual machine is still slower than native
[02:34] <Wormik> nibsa1242b, add yourself to dip group and read BluetoothDialup manual
[02:34] <geirha> Pixels: Haven't tried the alternative for a long while, but I'm guessing that means the alternative can't resize partitions. If that is the case, you can resize the partition from vista, making some free space for ubuntu to use.
[02:34] <Joeseph> dj_segfault: I had set it up as a static ip....   Let me pastebin my iwconfig... but it'll take a second, since I have no internet on the pc that I used the command on.
[02:34] <nibsa1242b> Wormik: ok thanks
[02:34] <MrKlean> Ubuntu 9 detects that I have AC97 audio and seems like it has the drivers setup, but still no audio. Fresh install, any help please?
[02:34] <Pixels> when I load citibank.com, it says to intall missing plugings.. when I click on "install missing plugins: it then says unable tio find any
[02:35] <dj_segfault> Joeseph: ACK
[02:35] <Pixels> what can I do?
[02:35] <Wormik> nibsa1242b, hcitool scan, hcitool 'your phone adress', sudo 'your favourite text editor' /etc/bluetooth/rfcomm.conf
[02:35] <matt__> Type "alsamixer" in a terminal MrKlean.  What appears?
[02:35] <matt__> Is the volume turned down or muted?
[02:35] <cabrey> Pixels, citibank might rely on ActiveX
[02:36] <cabrey> Pixels, which is a windows only proprietary extension to Internet Explorer
[02:36] <Pixels> cabrey: no way.. maybe its flash?
[02:36] <Wormik> nibsa1242b, write adress. bind=yes. rfcomm = nubmer of "Dialup networking" rfcomm adress in sdptool
[02:36] <cabrey> Pixels, have you installed flash?
[02:36] <nibsa1242b> Wormik: I don't have a dip group!
[02:36] <dj_segfault> MrKlean: Matt suggested alsamixer because it has controls for volumes that other mixers don't have.  Often one of them is muted or low.
[02:36] <MrKlean> function snd_ctl _open failed for default: no such file or directory
[02:36] <matt__> hmm.
[02:36] <mr_frostee> Anybody know where to get a Dell v505w driver for Jaunty?  It's driving me crazy that I can't use the wife's new printer with my computer.
[02:36] <Pixels> cabrey: not sure, how can I tell?
[02:36] <Wormik> nibsa1242b and /etc/init.d/bluetooth restart. Enjoy! create connection to the Net or KMobileTools
[02:36] <cabrey> Pixels, go to youtube or something
[02:37] <rweait> have a problem after upgrading from intrepid to jaunty.    Can't switch to console.  Can ssh in.
[02:37] <Wormik> nibsa1242b, maybe not a dip? 3 letters and d is first...
[02:37] <cabrey> rweait, what graphics card do you have?
[02:37] <Pixels> cabrey: it says this when I go to tube: Hello, you either have JavaScript turned off or an old version of Adobe's Flash Player. Get the latest Flash player.
[02:37] <Kalmi_> !flash | Pixels
[02:37] <rweait> cabrey:  ATI Technologies Inc RV350 AQ [Radeon 9600]
[02:37] <nibsa1242b> Wormik: don't have anything like that
[02:38] <matt__> What card are you using MrKlean?
[02:38] <rafase282> Hello
[02:38] <cabrey> rweait, did you have ATI's drivers installed before?
[02:38] <rafase282> Is there a way to run .bat files in ubuntu?
[02:38] <rweait> probably.
[02:38] <nibsa1242b> Wormik: actually there is a dip group... how do I add it to myself
[02:38] <cabrey> rweait, from Hardware Drivers window?
[02:38] <MrKlean> matt__: integrated ac97 on a ECS rs400-a, let me check brand on it
[02:38] <Wormik> Can I download ISO images with repository of 9.04 AMD64?
[02:38] <mib_mrzup9> hello
[02:38] <Pixels> Kalmi_: that link doesnt have flash for 9.04
[02:38] <Mukatuna> hi all
[02:38] <Joeseph> dj_segfault: http://pastebin.com/d2fe6b640  there is my iwconfig output.
[02:38] <rweait> cabrey: perhaps from ati install disk?
[02:39] <rweait> cabry: not certain/
[02:39] <Wormik> nibsa1242b, I don't remebmer (sitting in Internet cafe in Windows). Watch other groups
[02:39] <nibsa1242b> Wormik: ok, I'll figure it out thanks
[02:39] <Pixels> how do I install flash on 9.04?
[02:39] <Wormik> nibsa1242b, sudo 'your favourite editor' /etc/group , after this read BluetoothDialup manual
[02:39] <MrKlean> matt__: all I can find on it is:  Realtek ALC655 6-Channel audio CODEC Compliant with AC'97 2.3 specification
[02:39] <Kalmi_> Pixels, just install the flashplugin-nonfree package
[02:39] <MrKlean> Also matt__: http://www.ecs.com.tw/ECSWebSite/Products/ProductsDetail.aspx?detailid=507&CategoryID=1&DetailName=Specification&MenuID=1&LanID=0
[02:40] <cabrey> rweait, you don't want ATI's drivers, they aren't supported for your card on Jaunty
[02:40] <cabrey> rather use
[02:40] <cabrey> !ati
[02:40] <Wormik> Anybody needs latest flashrom deb for amd64? I have this!
[02:40] <cabrey> rweait, you want the open source driver
[02:40] <Wormik> flashrom from repository doesn't see my chipset
[02:40] <timewriter> hi
[02:40] <dj_segfault> Joeseph: Looks good.  You're definitely talking to the hardware.  Do you see any entries when you run  "iwlist wlan0 scanning"
[02:40] <timewriter> anyone uses vmware on ubuntu ?
[02:41] <Pixels> Kalmi_: flashplugin-nonfree, ok, brb
[02:41] <rweait> cabrey: is there an apt-get install I should run to do that?
[02:41] <Joeseph> dj_segfault: I see three entries with that command.
[02:41] <bartek> Hi there. I have been monitoring my system for awhile and it seems that instead of using both CPU's (I have a dual core intel), it instead just uses the single CPU and that maxes out, causing my PC to lag.
[02:41] <cabrey> rweait, sudo apt-get remove fglrx
[02:41] <bartek> Is there any way to fix this ?
[02:41] <Pixels> Kalmi_: flashplugin-nonfree, worked, cheers
[02:42] <losher> timewriter: yes, workstation 6.0.5 on Ubuntu 8.04
[02:42] <earthlander_> bartek what cpu is it?
[02:42] <dj_segfault> Joeseph: Very odd.  You sure it's set up static?  Just for grins, grep -i your logs for dhcp.
[02:42] <cabrey> rweait, my mistake it is actually sudo apt-get remove xorg-driver-fglrx
[02:42] <ajavid> hello people
[02:42] <timewriter> thanks losher , i managed to install it
[02:42] <rafase282> can anyone help me with a .bat file?
[02:42] <timewriter> just chmoded +x the script
[02:42] <rafase282> how do i run it on ubuntu?
[02:42] <rweait> cabrey: running it now...
[02:42] <dj_segfault> bartek: How do you know it
[02:42] <stric_> hello
[02:43] <dj_segfault> bartek: How do you know it's only using 1 CPU?
[02:43] <stric_> i need a little help
[02:43] <dj_segfault> rafase282: dosemu or wine
[02:43] <Joeseph> dj_segfault: I think I may have been running my DHCP one there...     I'll see if the other works or something.... it just all seems very strange to me.
[02:43] <Pixels> if I run ubuntu as a guest using virtualbox, and Vista is the host. Can anything that infects Vista "jump over" into the guest Ubuntu and compromise my netbanking?
[02:43] <ajavid> I need to install ubuntu but I have my 1tb /home as ext4. I'd like to use the LTS ubuntu stable + kde3 + 2.6.28+(for ext4 support) and I have a rt26 wifi
[02:43] <bartek> dj_segfault: I'm just looking at what conky is telling me, this is why I am unsure if its actually accurate but it seems silly for this PC to lag using only Firefox, Terminal, and one other app
[02:43] <timewriter> vlc or smplayer ?
[02:43] <ajavid> any ideas if it is possible
[02:44] <tkmr> Pixels: Maybe, but the it wouldn't work correctly
[02:44] <craigbass1976> Anyone yet tried LXDE on an ubuntu box?  I tried a knoppix cd the other day and was surprised; even on a livecd the computer was hammering along
[02:44] <earthlander_> anyone know how to set compiz to show a preview window when the window is not selected?
[02:44] <Pixels> tkmr: can you say that again using better grammar,, couldnt understand what you said
[02:44] <Wormik> Do you know where is ISO images of Ubuntu 9.04 AMD64 repository?
[02:44] <Joeseph> dj_segfault: Hmmm.... it's asking for my WEPKEY when it is clearly correct after I disconnected and reconnected.  Is that a symptom of any problems you know of?
[02:44] <cabrey> earthlander_, install ccsm
[02:45] <dj_segfault> bartek: What time was conky's entry?
[02:45] <earthlander_> ok
[02:45] <earthlander_> thanx
[02:45] <craigbass1976> Wormik, It's not here: http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/download?
[02:45] <rweait> cabrey:  looks good!
[02:45] <tkmr> Pixels: sorry. It may be able to jump over, but the virus/trojan/whatever is infecting your Vista won't work in Ubuntu
[02:45] <dj_segfault>  Joeseph: I've never been able to get WEP working.  Sorry.  I just hide my ESSID and block by MAC address in the wireless router.
[02:46] <cabrey> rweait: did you reboot yet?
[02:46] <bartek> dj_segfault: it's updated every 15 sec
[02:46] <matt__> Sorry MrKlean I can't really find anything that could help you.
[02:46] <rweait> cabrey: going across the room to check it now.  Logon window looks awesome!
[02:46] <tkmr> Pixels: So even if it does jump over, your Ubuntu won't become compromised
[02:46] <Pixels> tkmr: ok good, so I can use netbanking etc with confidence
[02:46] <cabrey> rweait, sounds good
[02:46] <Joeseph> dj_segfault: Hmm. okay. well....   I can't really do that.. hahahaha.    Oh well.  I'll do some more trial and error..........
[02:46] <dj_segfault> bartek: heh, I thought conky was a user here who told you something.  Hold...
[02:46] <MrKlean> matt__: It's ok
[02:46] <bartek> It seems silly that my current load is at 0.99 .. and just shot up to 1.07 when I ojnly have firefox and banshee open
[02:47] <earthlander_> cabrey i already have that but it wont show preview window unless the window is already up on desktop screen
[02:47] <Pixels> tkmr: what about if vista is infected with a keylogger.. will the vista keylogger pick up anything I type in the Virtualbox Ubuntu Firefox?
[02:47] <tkmr> Pixels: Yes. AFAIK there aren't any "viruses" for Linux, just because there are so many distros and each one is so different, it is difficult to make one that would work across all of the distros
[02:47] <bartek> I have tons of memory available, and never really swap. Thinking CPU is the issue here for speed
[02:47] <cabrey> earthlander_, ahh i understand you now, I think that is a limitation of compiz
[02:47] <Pixels> unitedpotsmokers: interesting nickname you junkie lol
[02:47] <tkmr> Pixels: I'm not sure about that. It's possible. I would say likely, as it is reading your keystrokes at a hardware level As far as I know.
[02:47] <rweait> cabrey: thanks so much.  Even dual monitors are working!
[02:47] <timewriter> nah
[02:47] <earthlander_> thats wack
[02:47] <seyfarth> Can anyone recommend a NES and SNES emulator?
[02:48] <dj_segfault> bartek: I would verify with another tool.  What does System Monitor say?
[02:48] <timewriter> vmware process dies for me
[02:48] <Pixels> tkmr: so you are uncertain?
[02:48] <mr_frostee> Anybody know where to get a Dell v505w driver for Jaunty?  It's driving me crazy that I can't use the wife's new printer with my computer.
[02:48] <timewriter> im using 9.04 64bit
[02:48] <cabrey> rweait, :)
[02:48] <craigbass1976> seyfarth, nesticle for nes
[02:48] <Wormik> craigbass1976, I don't found
[02:48] <craigbass1976> seyfarth, I never had an snes, so I never looked into an emulator.  Stella is cool too if you ever had an atari
[02:48] <bartek> dj_segfault: you mean like top? It shows the same thing really, Cpu(s): 14%us, 3%sy
[02:48] <tkmr> Pixels: Right. I would think that the keylogger would pick up anything in virtual machine, or whatever, because that's software, and is still "running" in vista.
[02:48] <cabrey> bartek: use htop
[02:48] <bartek> But even at these lower levels, I have slight lag.. maybe it's just the apps I'm using
[02:49] <sagaci> setting a printer up on ubuntu 9.04 to a hp laser on xp, any tips?
[02:49] <earthlander_> ive heard of people being able to fix that
[02:49] <dj_segfault> bartek: System-> Administration -> System Monitor
[02:49] <bartek> cabrey: ok, hmm, htop does show both CPU's being used.
[02:49] <Wormik> I FOUND!! ftp://ftp.leg.uct.ac.za/pub/linux/ubuntu-unofficial-packages-dvd/
[02:49] <dj_segfault> bartek: It shows the two cores separately
[02:49] <Pixels> tkmr: I just reading a website.. it says someone tested it and the keylogger didnt pick up the virtualbox linux
[02:49] <bartek> I guess I need to find out why my load is so high constantyly
[02:50] <craigbass1976> Wormik, http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/download had links to it.   I would do some additional research just to be sure.
[02:50] <craigbass1976> sagaci, eh?  Not sure what you mean about the printer
[02:50] <dj_segfault> bartek: Whether you're using one or two cores, and why your load is so high, are two separate questions.  For my money, Firefox is usually to blame for the latter.  But did you try System Monitor to  test the former?
[02:51] <craigbass1976> sagaci, you're sharing out from ub to xp?
[02:51] <alephzero> hmm any way to have different wallpapers for different workspaces with gnome / compiz (preferrably one that keeps the desktop useable)
[02:51] <bartek> dj_segfault: I did, thanks for the suggestion, I am indeed using two cores .. my overlooking, but now I'm curious on the latter issue :-)
[02:51] <cabrey> sagaci, you want to connect to a network printer?
[02:51] <matrixblue> alephzero, yeah that would rule
[02:51] <bartek> And yes Firefox is probably to blame, but I haven't been able to find a better alternative on Linux
[02:52] <cabrey> bartek, Chrome is getting closer and closer :)
[02:52] <craigbass1976> bartek, epiphany was no good for you?
[02:52] <dj_segfault> alephzero: I don't believe so.  I tried and failed.  However, I was able to do something cooler, which is rotate wallpapers every 30 minutes in cron
[02:52] <alephzero> matrix> i know theres a way using the desktop cube, but i gotta turn off the gnome desktop for it to work
[02:52] <bartek> cabrey: oh I know! I am using Chrome sometimes, but it's not quite there yet
[02:52] <matrixblue> bartek, try epiphany
[02:52] <bartek> craigbass1976: epiphany is pretty bad imo
[02:52] <dj_segfault> bartek: top should tell all.
[02:52] <bartek> I only use it as secondary
[02:52] <cabrey> bartek, i use it full time :) i LOVE it
[02:52] <craigbass1976> bartek, elinks (harhar)
[02:52] <dennister> my presentation was printing fine this morning, but then oo crashed and now all it prints is gobbleygook...other apps print fine...can someone please help me sort this out?
[02:52] <bartek> hehe
[02:52] <bartek> cabrey: I find it still crashes a bit unfortunately :/
[02:53] <dennister> and yes, i've tried openoffice.org channel...it's dead
[02:53] <cabrey> bartek; for me the alpha is extremely stable
[02:53] <craigbass1976> bartek, whatever happened to regular mozilla.  Became seamonkey, no?  THen what?
[02:53] <Joeseph> dj_segfault: Hmmm... .I'm back on with my static ip....  I'm currently pinging my router for as long as possible to see when it disconnects.
[02:53] <bartek> cabrey: cool, then I guess its getting closer for everyone :-)
[02:53] <craigbass1976> dennister, it usually is.  Which channel did you go into?
[02:53] <bartek> hmm it seems Banshee is my CPU culprit
[02:53] <Wormik> bartek, IceApe
[02:53] <bartek> using 3% CPU threads.. many of them
[02:53] <Wormik> Try it. It based on Mozilla 5.0
[02:53] <dennister> craigbass1976: openoffice.org
[02:53] <dj_segfault>  Joeseph: You solved the wep problem?
[02:53] <matrixblue> alephzero, possible feature request
[02:54] <dj_segfault> bartek: Bad Banchee, No Biscuit!
[02:54] <bartek> dj_segfault: what? :-P
[02:54] <matrixblue> bartek, what firefox doing? I thought it was the bread and butter of FOSS
[02:54] <Joeseph> dj_segfault: Seemed to.   I just restarted.  My router seems to be pingable this time.  Getting closer.
[02:54] <bartek> Actually I need to look for a new media player since I dont need Ubuntu to sync my ipod anymore
[02:55] <cabrey> matrixblue, oh god no
[02:55] <bartek> So I dont need banshees ipod syncing
[02:55] <dsdeiz> finally! i got urxvt to have more colors.. hooray!
[02:55] <dennister> craigbass1976: can you help me with this? the presentation is set for tomorrow morning :(
[02:55] <dj_segfault> bartek: I switched to Songbird, which plays, organizes and syncs well.
[02:55] <Joeseph> dj_segfault: Alright... I'm connected to the internet for now...   I just updated the weather applet and it worked....  next try is firefox...
[02:55] <matrixblue> bartek, banshee mostly crashes for me when trying to get album art
[02:55] <mr_frostee> bartek....what do you use to sync your iPod?
[02:56] <craigbass1976> dennister, gah!  I'm not sure.  Let me think...  Ok to private chat?
[02:56] <bartek> mr_frostee: my mac
[02:56] <dj_segfault> OK, gotta go, since I couldn't get *my* problem solved here.  L8R
[02:56] <rkymtndave_> cheater
[02:56] <bartek> dj_segfault: Songbird always crashes when I try to load my library (its big), unfortunately. I've given it many attempts and used to use it.
[02:56] <cabrey> matrixblue, banshee has been the best experience for me compared to amarok, songbird, rhythmbox, etc
[02:56] <timewriter> anyone knows how to install vmware workstation on ubuntu 9 ?
[02:56] <Joeseph> dj_segfault: It seems to be working this time.  Don't know what I did different... Other than pinging my router as soon as I was connected.... but that would seem like an odd thing to keep me connected.
[02:56] <bartek> http://mpd.wikia.com/wiki/Music_Player_Daemon_Wiki here's a light weight music player haha :)
[02:56] <dj_segfault> bartek: I have about 3500 songs in Songbird right now.
[02:57] <cabrey> timewriter, I have it installed
[02:57] <eremite> Anyone know when Foobar2000 will be coming to Linux?
[02:57] <matrixblue> cabrey, I agree. It does need some polishing but overall I like it
[02:57] <dj_segfault> Joeseph: Agreed
[02:57] <maek> where has /etc/iftab gone in 9.04 please?
[02:57] <bartek> eremite: I wish it would
[02:57] <timewriter> cabrey , can you tell me how ?
[02:57] <bartek> best media player ever
[02:57] <timewriter> i installed it too , but it wont start
[02:57] <cabrey> timewriter, yes do you have the cdrom (or download)
[02:57] <Kalmi_> maek, what is iftab for?
[02:57] <timewriter> i downloaded the bundle script
[02:58] <mr_frostee> I use Banshee with my iPod, I tried Amarok but that didn't work so well.  Banshee seems to be good.
[02:58] <cabrey> timewriter, can you tell me the file extension?
[02:58] <eremite> Does anyone know why I would get really bad lag while gaming, but beofre I switched from Wubi to a proper install it worked flawlessly?
[02:58] <mr_frostee> I wish there was a linux version of iTunes though
[02:58] <timewriter> just a sec
[02:58] <timewriter> its a script
[02:58] <timewriter> i chmoded it +x
[02:58] <maek> Kalmi_: I just cloned an ubuntu vm and eth0 isnt showing up, I assume its tied to the old mac somewhere and /etc/iftab used to list the device and its mac address
[02:58] <timewriter> and ./ ran it
[02:58] <FloodBot3> timewriter: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[02:58] <timewriter> and it installed vmware
[02:58] <cabrey> timewriter, do sudo ./script
[02:58] <timewriter> i did
[02:58] <Joeseph> dj_segfault: If that turns out to be my solution, I suppose I could write a script that pings my router and have it start on startup....
[02:59] <dj_segfault> Kalmi_:/etc/network/interfaces
[02:59] <timewriter> everything went fine , but vmware doesnt start
[02:59] <cabrey> timewriter, any error messages?
[02:59] <Kalmi_> dj_segfault, that has very little to do with iftab...
[02:59] <timewriter> didnt checked the log
[02:59] <cabrey> timewriter, run vmware from the terminal
[02:59] <dj_segfault> Joeseph: Sounds like a plan.  *really gotta go* and get my problem solved.
[02:59] <cabrey> that command
[02:59] <timewriter> ok , just a sec
[02:59] <Joeseph> dj_segfault: alright, good luck.
[03:00] <timewriter> hm
