[00:00] <mirak> I have a bug where nautilus always try to create thumbnails
[00:00] <mirak> perpetually
[00:00] <tiagobugarin> soundray: no, it is a laptop's internal keyboard. no external usb keyboard is working also
[00:00] <Slart> pavs: ifconfig -a also returns nothing?
[00:01] <zxc> is it normal that nautilus does not remember unmaximized size when you close a maximized nautilus window ??
[00:01] <pavs> slart it shows eth1 eth0 and lo
[00:01] <yusuo> i cant reconfigure x i keep on gettin an error message any ideas
[00:01] <Slart> pavs: ah.. ok.. try this "sudo ifup eth1"
[00:01] <Slart> pavs: you can replace eth1 with eth0
[00:01] <pavs> slart ifup not installed :(
[00:02] <soundray> tiagobugarin: strange that it would work with knoppix, but not Ubuntu. Perhaps try with a PCMCIA USB adapter?
[00:02] <|unjustice|> soundray: are you saying that my hardware's fucked...because I cannot likely fix it (laptop)
[00:02] <annonymouse> can any help me ive lost my login manager button
[00:02] <Slart> pavs: ifup isn't installed?.. what kind of ubuntu are you using?
[00:02] <soundray> |unjustice|: no, I wouldn't say that because using such language here makes you highly unpopular
[00:03] <pavs> slart I am telling you ever since I did autoremove it messed up everything
[00:03] <|unjustice|> soundray: my apologies...is my inability to set my clock due to hardware malfunction?
[00:03] <Slart> pavs: but.. but.. apt is supposed to stop you from doing nasty things like that.. autoremove should be a safe operation
[00:04] <th1> Hi, I just tried to install flash plugin on KUbuntu 7.10 but then I get this aptitude error: md5sum mismatch install_flash_player_9_linux.tar.gz\n The Flash plugin is NOT installed.
[00:04] <Slart> pavs: I'm loosing faith in the apt-system now..
[00:04] <soundray> |unjustice|: it's possible. Like I said, your backup battery may be flat
[00:04] <pavs> slart tell me about it, I even so it remove xinit right in front of my eyes
[00:04] <ScReaMiNg> zdravejte
[00:04] <Slart> th1: and then you read the topic and understood why
[00:04] <th1> Slart, thanks ;)

[00:04] <Slart> pavs: well.. I think you're looking at a reinstall then
[00:04] <Slart> th1: you're welcome =)

[00:07] <Starnestommy> ScReaMiNg, ubotu is a bot
[00:07] <ryanp> Me again. That's a no-go on the "nosplash"/remove "splash" boot commands. Same problem. :-/ I'm really confused now, because I just used this CD yesterday and it worked fine...

[00:07] <|unjustice|> soundray: if my backup battery was flat, wouldn't I be unable to run without outlet power?
[00:08] <Slart> ryanp: hmm.. what video-card did you have?
[00:08] <soundray> |unjustice|: is it a laptop?
[00:08] <|unjustice|> soundray: yup
[00:08] <ryanp> nVidia GeForce4 MX 420, I believe.
[00:09] <soundray> |unjustice|: the main battery that runs the computer is different from the backup battery, which is a button cell that only runs the clock chip when the laptop is powered down.
[00:09] <Slart> ryanp: hm.. sounds old enough to be supported... I've never had any problems with the live-cd.. but I'm off to bed.. I hope someone can help you further
[00:09] <WooD> Hi guys, I did a sudo mkfs.ext3 /dev/sdb and since that time I get the error hal-storage-fixed-mount refused uid 1000 when I want to access the HDD .. any clue about this bug ?&
[00:10] <ryanp> @slart thanks anyway
[00:10] <allobjects> fallore: any ideas why I can't run the flashplayer-installer script after extracting the *.tar.gz
[00:10] <crimsun> WooD: if you used that precise command, you can't run it on an entire block device.  You need to use a partition.
[00:10] <yusuo> ok still having problems with my resolution please i really do need help
[00:11] <WooD> crimsun, I better use a partition software to format the drive ?
[00:11] <ljsmithx> hello
[00:11] <th1> allobjects, just look at the post at the link that ubotu gives, and download the deb package from there with wget, and hten dpkg -i filename. :)
[00:11] <|unjustice|> soundray: thanks
[00:11] <soundray> |unjustice|: anyway, does your problem occur when you leave the machine running overnight?
[00:11] <ljsmithx> if i right click on my desktop and try to change settings it wont lets me change tabs
[00:11] <|unjustice|> soundray: I have not really tried...I usually turn it off when I sleep, but I think that it runs fine over night
[00:11] <ljsmithx> :(
[00:11] <gunja> wood: Seems like u got no partitions, fdisk /dev/sdb and use the menu there
[00:12] <ljsmithx> and now it has disabled my wobbly windows
[00:12] <WooD> gunja, ok
[00:12] <gunja> Wood: u need to be using mkfs.ext3 on /dev/sdb1 /dev/sdb2 etc, etc
[00:12] <rezman> does anyone know if there is a new loki installer for ut99
[00:12] <allobjects> !flash

[00:13] <Xintruder> is ubuntu linked with debian servers?
[00:13] <soundray> |unjustice|: do you ever boot without a network connection?
[00:13] <WooD> googlah, thanks !! I'll do that
[00:13] <ljsmithx> yusuo, what graphics card do you have?
[00:13] <WooD> gunja, thanks
[00:13] <soundray> Xintruder: no
[00:13] <Chris|> go to system > prefferences > screen resolution
[00:13] <allobjects> th1: thanks
[00:13] <|unjustice|> soundray: rarely, if I do I usually have wireless running
[00:13] <th1> Xintruder, no it's separate from debian servers ;) don't ask ubuntu questions in #debian channel or you will get banned.. they are militant ;)
[00:14] <soundray> |unjustice|: then ntpdate should sync the time correctly, if it's correctly configured and the server is accessible. Check /etc/default/ntpdate
[00:14] <khaotik> how do i uninstall automatix2 from my machine?
[00:14] <ljsmithx> In the Appearance menu I can't change anything

[00:17] <Nostahl> heyey all my sound isnt working all of a sudden any idea's?
[00:17] <ljsmithx> I guess noone knows
[00:18] <shane_> hey everone
[00:18] <ljsmithx> hey
[00:18] <flyingfree> okay here the situation....
[00:18] <shane_> hey
[00:18] <shane_> Gutsy users?
[00:18] <flyingfree> I somehow lost the right to use sudo commands and can no longer use synaptic and yet I am the only uer
[00:19] <LjL> flyingfree: did you by any chance attempt to change your hostname?
[00:19] <flyingfree> I recently added another user to the group and soehow they are not there and myself and all other users I created have lost admin rights
[00:19] <peter_> dondurito
[00:19] <LjL> flyingfree: if you type « groups » from your user does "admin" show up?
[00:19] <flyingfree> anyidea how I get them all back
[00:19] <flyingfree> the root username does not work
[00:19] <LjL> !root | flyingfree, it's not supposed to
[00:19] <ubotu> flyingfree, it's not supposed to: Do not try to guess the root password, that is impossible. Instead, realise the truth... there is no root password. Then you will see that it is 'sudo' that grants you access and not the root password. Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo
[00:21] <oldude67> how do i get emerald themes for compiz apt-get emerald?
[00:21] <LjL> flyingfree, short answer, boot with init=/bin/sh and adduser yourself admin
[00:21] <LjL> oldude67: try asking in #compiz-fusion perhaps
[00:21] <soundray> LjL: why not boot in recovery mode? (Easier to explain...)
[00:21] <flyingfree> can anyone hear me
[00:22] <flyingfree> this kopete takes along time to clean up the people in the room
[00:22] <LjL> soundray: because i don't know what it logs you in as, i've never used recovery mode
[00:22] <soundray> LjL: runs a root shell in single mode without a password
[00:23] <LjL> soundray: should be good then. i was under the impression that some password got asked.

[00:41] <gyaresu> Bassman321: Is your wireless network encrypted?

[00:42] <dave_ubu> wood - Skype is available for linux
[00:42] <soundray> |unjustice|: if you run ntpdate by hand, you should use sudo. It's better to start the script in /etc/network/if-up.d/ntpdate (also with sudo)

[00:46] <LjL> kojiro: for a split second i thought i was in the wrong channel
[00:46] <tssom> pgan002:  thanks
[00:46] <pgan002> WooD: can oyu mount it?
[00:46] <allobjects> I installed the flash plugin RPM from adobe site using alien, but it does not show up in fire fox about:plugins. The output from alien insatll here: http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/3360/ can someone please advise ?
[00:46] <kojiro> LjL: heh, no, I decided to give xubuntu a try on this lappy
[00:46] <Bassman321> The Log was disabled
[00:46] <soundray> !flash | allobjects
[00:46] <ubotu> allobjects: To install Flash see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats/Flash - Flash 9 is now available in dapper-backports and edgy-backports - See also !Restricted and !Gnash
[00:46] <Bassman321> I enabled it
[00:46] <ubotu> The Flash plugin installation is currently broken. This is due to Adobe changing the tar file that the package downloads. See http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=636397 if you need to fix this immediately, but it's recommended to wait for an official fix.
[00:46] <kojiro> Bassman321: well, you also just restarted the thing
[00:46] <kaos01> do i need to do something extra after an install to get ssh access to my box ?
[00:46] <Ryan> BaD-BBerry: I would do this, but my university has enterprise wpa on the wired lines.
[00:46] <Ryan> BaD-BBerry: I see. And this does a minimal install?
[00:46] <WooD> pgan002, no .. it says wrong fs type when i type sudo mount /dev/sdb /media/sdc1/
[00:46] <Ryan> Hey guys, question: If I were to install a command line system for a minimal install, what packages would you suggest getting to get an openbox GUI working?
[00:47] <soundray> kaos01: yes -- apt-get install ssh
[00:47] <Bassman321> What do you mean the thing?
[00:47] <mrx__> exit

[00:47] <LjL> soundray, use !flash in pm only please, while it has the "also" appendage
[00:47] <allobjects> soundray: that ubotu link does not allow you to download the packages
[00:47] <Bassman321> Then why am I still connected
[00:47] <kojiro> Bassman321: you said you unplugged it
[00:47] <Nostahl> how can i get my sound working it just up and quit?

[00:47] <Bassman321> Kojiro, Sorry
[00:47] <pgan002> WooD: what about "mount -t ext3 /dev/sdb /media/sdc1"?
[00:47] <wasted>  Anyone that knows how to install crosstool can you look at this? http://pastebin.com/d3e7090ff
[00:47] <WooD> pgan002,  ok ill try that
[00:48] <soundray> allobjects: please read the whole thing -- I'll get ubotu to pm you:
[00:48] <nd2> does anyone know how to find the location of a usb-drive in the usb tree?  similar to that of the physical addresses of input devices.  ?
[00:48] <soundray> !flash > allobjects
[00:48] <Bassman321> Theres a checkmark under 'filter multicast' shall I leave it checked or unchecked
[00:48] <soundray> Thanks LjL
[00:48] <pgan002> WooD: also check out the partition using gparted
[00:48] <kojiro> Bassman321: leave it whatever it is -- that doesn't have to do with mac address filtering
[00:48] <nd2> ie: i need to find the physical address of the usb-drive
[00:48] <Bassman321> My wireless mac filter is already checked as 'disabled'
[00:48] <pgan002> Hi - when I use my wireless card, my computer freezes for about 5 seconds quite often and inpredicably.  It's a PCMCIA card, Belkin F5D7010 v7. lspci says "Belkin Unknown device 701f (rev 20)"
[00:48] <kojiro> Bassman321: OK, so it's something else -- are you sure there's no encryption/authentication setup?
[00:49] <WooD> pgan002, i did your command and still the same problem .. ill reboot .. It maybe have a bug somewher
[00:49] <Bakefy> anyone here use the sever edition

[00:49] <LjL> !anyone | Bakefy
[00:49] <ubotu> Bakefy: A large amount of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..."  Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out?

[00:49] <mikubuntu> on google earth i keep getting a message to update my graphic  card driver.  on this page in the ubuntu docs, it says to look into the restricted drivers, but the only thing listed in my restricted drivers folder is hal ... http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=482611   anybody know how i might update ati rage mobility driver?
[00:49] <Bakefy> I want to make a network file server... NAS. (thanks LjL) and I wonder if Ubuntu server is the best option
[00:50] <allobjects> LjL: the link for 32 bit packages for 7.10 takes me to a page wher eI need a login. Can't see where to get an account
[00:50] <LjL> b!best > bakefy - sorry, bot spam has to continue :)
[00:50] <LjL> !best > bakefy    (bakefy, see the private message from Ubotu) - sorry, bot spam has to continue :)
[00:50] <Bakefy> LjL, say what?
[00:50] <kojiro> heh
[00:50] <LjL> !best | Bakefy
[00:50] <ubotu> Bakefy: Usually, there is no single "best" application to perform a given task. It's up to you to choose among a number of different applications, depending on your preferences, the features you require, and other factors. If you really insist on getting people's opinions, join #ubuntu-bots and ask there.
[00:51] <Bakefy> LjL, got it... thanks
[00:51] <kojiro> Bassman321: what type of wifi device is it?
[00:51] <Bassman321> You mean what type of wirless adapter do I have?
[00:51] <kojiro> yes
[00:51] <LjL> Bakefy: it's certainly a "good" option. whether it's the best... well we're a bit biased towards ubuntu here i would suppose
[00:51] <Bakefy> LjL, if you were to create a file server would you use server, or ubuntu desktop
[00:51] <LjL> Bakefy: i would use server
[00:51] <MongooseWA> how do i get moblock to stop blocking last.fm?
[00:51] <allobjects> ljL: Am I misreading and going to the wrong link to download the 7.10 packages ?

[00:52] <Bakefy> LjL, thanks for the help... I am going to go buy two 500 GB drives at frys tonight!
[00:52] <nicolas-ard> the spanish channel was bored jeje
[00:53] <nicolas-ard> what is frys?
[00:53] <LjL> allobjects: ah yes, i'm afraid you simply do have to register to ubuntuforums to download attachments
[00:53] <allobjects> LjL: btw, if I have done the wrong thing trying to install the rpm via alien, please tell me how to undo
[00:53] <Bassman321> My wirelss adapter is a linksys wireless-G WUSB54G v. 4
[00:53] <LjL> allobjects: possibly not easy... what was the package name?
[00:53] <Shadix> ok i booted my comp after switching drivers and now I get a black screen....so i boot into recovery and "startx" but xserver says no screens detected
[00:53] <Shadix> help
[00:54] <Starnestommy> try running Xorg -configure?
[00:54] <allobjects> LJL: here is the install output http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/3360/
[00:54] <nicolas-ard> ha.. look the backup of the xorg.conf..
[00:54] <Bassman321> Shadix that happens to me and I just wait for about 3 minutes and it comes on
[00:54] <LjL> allobjects: try « sudo apt-get --purge remove flash-plugin »
[00:55] <LjL> Shadix: restore the backup copy of /etc/X11/xorg.conf. if you used standard tools to switch driver, one should have been created automatically (probably with a name like /etc/X11/xorg.conf.<date>)
[00:55] <nicolas-ard> Shadix: yes, i think the same that LjL
[00:56] <kojiro> Bassman321: Well, is your machine listed as a client on the router?
[00:56] <kojiro> (after you try to connect)
[00:56] <Bassman321> I don't know I'll boot back into linux, try to connect, and then boot back into windows and look at the log
[00:56] <allobjects> Ljl: that ssemd to work. Just for my own understanding, what does "ldconfig deferred processing now taking place" mean ?
[00:57] <Starnestommy> I think it means ld is being configured to be able to include newly installed binaries
[00:57] <Starnestommy> *libraries
[00:57] <LjL> allobjects: it's normal, it's a feature introduced in Gutsy to make installing multiple packages take longer time by deferring certain actions (such as running ldconfig to configure libraries) after installing all packages, rather than doing them once for each package
[00:57] <kojiro> Bassman321: or you could boot into linux, try to connect, and then plug in an eth cable to see the log... but you left
[00:57] <LjL> err, take *shorter* time :)
[00:58] <soundray> LjL: *less* time
[00:58] <allobjects> LjL: cool, thanks for your help, will get account to forums now and try getting that package
[00:58] <kojiro> heh
[00:58] <Shadix> i did sudo "dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg" now i'm back

[00:59]  * kojiro hides
[00:59] <axjv> Does anyone know the name of the alsa service that starts up in a default install?  What's the correct way to say it then?
[01:00] <shadix> thx for your help though
[01:00] <kojiro> soundray: nevermind, I recant my statement
[01:00] <Kasplatt> when I tried to install it it failed , and I had to stop the process using ctrl-c so now when I try to remove it it tries to download some files. and one file keeps stopping , the same file that stopped when I tried to install it.
[01:00] <icheyne> hi all. I disabled wireless using network manager, but now I can't renable it! What do I do?
[01:00] <Kasplatt> shadix: new to linux :P ?
[01:00] <wpk> icheyne: using network manager
[01:01] <icheyne> wpk, yes
[01:01] <icheyne> wpk, using network manager
[01:01] <soundray> kojiro: did you look it up somewhere?
[01:01] <shadix> Kasplatt: lol a little I havn't had to use it for a longtime.....not since I used another comp as a router
[01:01] <shadix> the days before routers
[01:01] <cafuego> wpk?
[01:02] <icheyne> I can set it up again, but the little radio button is not available
[01:02] <nano__> hey guys, where i can check to see all the messages of drivers loading and stuff when i first boot up....i know there is a log file somewhere, im using ubuntu 7.04
[01:02] <Kasplatt> shadix: hmm ok :)
[01:02] <neverblue> nano_, in /var/log
[01:02] <neverblue> sorry, /var/log/
[01:02] <nano__> neverblue: would it be in syslog
[01:02] <neverblue> nano_, possibly, or messages
[01:02] <echowip`> how do i check to see that my video drivers are up to date?
[01:02] <icheyne> ok let me rephrase my question - where can I see a list of the available wireless networks and their strengths?
[01:03] <nano__> neverblue: ill check
[01:03] <icheyne> nano_, do you mean dmesg?
[01:03] <p1> Hi - when I use my wireless card, my computer freezes for about 5 seconds often and unpredicably.  It's a Belkin F5D7010 v7, which should work fine with ndiswrapper, according to https://help.ubuntu.com/community/HardwareSupportComponentsWirelessNetworkCardsBelkin . lspci says "Belkin Unknown device 701f (rev 20)".
[01:03] <nano__> icheyne: im trying to see if alsa was started during boot...
[01:03] <LjL> Kasplatt, pastebin the output of the whole thing please
[01:03] <neverblue> echowip`, how did you install them initially ?
[01:03] <icheyne> dmesg
[01:03] <nano__> sweet
[01:03] <icheyne> dmesg ! grep alsa
[01:03] <Kasplatt> LjL, of the uninstallation progress ?
[01:04] <icheyne> sorry that's a pipe not a !
[01:04] <icheyne> dmesg | grep alsa
[01:04] <LjL> nano__: depending on the level of detail you want, /var/log/boot or /var/log/kern.log
[01:04] <nano__> icheyne "dmesg | grep alsa" doesn't turn anything up, but my sound is working..
[01:04] <nano__> icheyne: im not on OSS
[01:04] <echowip`> neverblue: by just using administration>restricted drivers manager
[01:04] <icheyne> nano_, you're right I'm talking crap
[01:05] <Kasplatt> LjL: do you want me to paste what it does when I tell it to remove msttcorefonts ?
[01:05] <echowip`> it automatically downloaded the drivers.... but im not sure if they're the proper up to date files
[01:05] <icheyne> nano_, I just checked it and it did not show up my alsa - sory
[01:05] <neverblue> echowip`, then your update manager will let you know if a newer one is available, and will prompt to download the package
[01:05] <nano__> icheyne: so what file do you think i should check?
[01:05] <icheyne> nano_, there are some really good troubleshooters on the ubuntu wiki
[01:05] <Nostahl> can someone help me my sound stoped working all of a sudden
[01:05] <nano__> icheyne: ill give it a shot
[01:05] <icheyne> nano_, there's also the alsa wiki
[01:05] <neverblue> Nostahl, what application are you using to listen to sound in ?
[01:06] <nano__> icheyne: thnkx
[01:06] <tssom> Is there any software at all that lets me call 100% free to cellphones arround the world?
[01:06] <neverblue> !offtopic | tssom
[01:06] <ubotu> tssom: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome!
[01:06] <Nostahl> neverblue i was in the prefferences/sound   and i cant hear any of the test sounds
[01:07] <neverblue> Nostahl, do you have a web browser open, where you maybe listening to audio, say possibly in flash ?
[01:07] <Nostahl> nope
[01:07] <Kasplatt> LjL: sorry but it seems to be removed , so I guess it's okay.
[01:07] <LjL> nano__, if sound is working, then what's the problem? =) anyway there's no module actually called alsasomething... try "grep snd /var/log/udev" (or just "lsmod | grep snd" which will tell you which sound modules are loaded, whether or not they got loaded on boot)
[01:07] <neverblue> Nostahl, logout of your system, log back in again, see if its still occurring
[01:07] <Nostahl> k
[01:07] <LjL> tssom: no
[01:07] <Nostahl> brb if it dosnt work hehe

[01:10] <kojiro> Bassman321: it doesn't help
[01:10] <Bassman321> So you found out my problem?
[01:10] <Bassman321> I mean solution
[01:10] <kojiro> Bassman321: if you connect on the same machine via Windows of course the log is going to say you're connected
[01:10] <LjL> lufis: all 1148 of us? :) look, there's *five* applications in the repos that can do what you want. it's not that many. i'm sure you can just install them and try them all briefly.
[01:11] <kojiro> Bassman321: which invalidates the test
[01:11] <Bassman321> Yes but there should be 2
[01:11] <LjL> nano__: grep it is. why is it bad?
[01:11] <allobjects> LjL: deb package worked a treat. Thanks for your time
[01:11] <kojiro> Bassman321: OK, are there 2?
[01:11] <nano__> LjL: i was just wondering if there was any alternative
[01:11] <Bassman321> No
[01:11] <Bassman321> Only one
[01:11] <Bassman321> But something different happend this time
[01:11] <kojiro> Bassman321: what happened?

[01:12] <kojiro> what login issue, flyingfree?
[01:13] <LjL> Kasplatt: what's hl2?
[01:13] <kojiro> Bassman321: is the router set up to do dhcp?
[01:13] <flyingfree> I recently added a new usr and instead of showing up as a viable user I managed to somehow remove administrative rigths from myself and all the user I created, problem is I was the only admin
[01:13] <p1> When I use my wireless card, my computer freezes for about 5 seconds often and unpredicably.  It's a Belkin F5D7010 v7, which should work with ndiswrapper, according to https://help.ubuntu.com/community/HardwareSupportComponentsWirelessNetworkCardsBelkin

[01:13] <flyingfree> anyhelp?
[01:13] <Bassman321> Yes I think so but let me make sure
[01:13] <Strangewor1> Kasplatt: Half-life 2, possibly one of the best games evaar.
[01:13] <Kasplatt> seaman: lol , nice nick.
[01:13] <emaude> Server help, please?
[01:13] <kojiro> flyingfree: ouch :(
[01:14] <Name141> How would I setup a dual boot ?
[01:14] <Bassman321> It says dhcp server: enable and its enabled
[01:14] <LjL> nano__: of course there are alternatives, just "find" is not one. what are you looking for, something faster...? i suggest typing « /msg ubotu search search »
[01:14] <Name141> I am getting stories of I do not need to format my windows, and Ubuntu will resize my partition for me ?
[01:14] <khaotik> does anyone no the proper apt line for multiuniverse repositories?
[01:14] <kojiro> LjL: is there an ubuntu way to fix flyingfree's problem or should I talk him through a chroot?
[01:14] <Bassman321> If hl2 is on steam, I know a good link to a site with a guide for setting up steam on Linux
[01:14] <nickrud> flyingfree: can't you boot into recovery mode? Hit return there and you get a root terminal (as long as you haven't set a root password, that is)
[01:15] <kojiro> oh, that'll do it
[01:15] <LjL> kojiro: i told him before to boot with recovery mode or init=/bin/sh and then "adduser himself admin"... not sure if that didn't work for some reason
[01:15] <flyingfree> how do I boot into recovery mode
[01:15] <LjL> flyingfree: you reach your GRUB menu and select recovery mode
[01:15] <flyingfree> sorry didn't catch that LjL
[01:16] <nickrud> flyingfree: boot, when you see something about grub hit escape, you'll see a menu. Chose the one with recovery in parentheses
[01:16] <flyingfree> okay I'll give that a try and from there
[01:16] <LjL> flyingfree: the GRUB menu is the menu you see when you boot. if you don't see one, hit Esc right after the BIOS hands control to the bootloader, i.e. ... just keep hitting Esc until something happens ;)
[01:16] <flyingfree> init=/bin/sh and then adduser username admin?
[01:16] <flyingfree> yup
[01:16] <nickrud> flyingfree: no, just run adduser usrername admin
[01:16] <LjL> flyingfree: no, init=/bin/sh is a kernel parameter, and an alternative to recovery mode. disregard it, recovery mode should do it find
[01:16] <flyingfree> okay thanks

[01:17] <Zasch> Hello. Evolution seems to keep "forgetting" my calendar, and I'm not sure why. I reboot and everything I have in my calendar is gone, except for the names of the calendars
[01:17] <flyingfree> brb hopefully
[01:17] <nickrud> LjL: does init=/bin/sh bypass a root pasword ?
[01:17] <LjL> flyingfree, you can always start irssi from recovery mode
[01:17] <LjL> flyingfree: if you need assistence while in recovery mode
[01:17]  * nickrud doesn't feel like rebooting to find out
[01:17] <LjL> nickrud: yes
[01:17] <Kasplatt> LjL: it's messed up, every time I try to uninstall it it just copies new files over the existing ones...
[01:17] <LjL> nickrud: actually it's the reason why i originally suggested it to him -- i didn't know whether recovery mode also did. but it seems to, so
[01:18] <nickrud> LjL: no, recovery won't
[01:18] <Bassman321> So what do you think kojiro
[01:18] <Bassman321> Any solutions?
[01:18] <Zasch> Also, I juts tried restoring Evolution's settings from a backup, but now the bars on the top and bottom of my screen just completely disappeared.
[01:18] <LjL> nickrud: ah but you mean that *if* a root password is set, recovery will bypass it, otherwise it'll ask for no password...?

[01:18] <nickrud> LjL: I recently had to go in an muck with /etc/shadow, I set a root password while helping someone with a use case, then forgot the password. Then I set rootpw in /etc/sudoers. FUN!
[01:19] <nickrud> LjL: if root has a password, recovery mode (single user) asks for it
[01:19] <LjL> Kasplatt: well i don't know really, if you didn't install it from a .deb package it depends entirely on its installer. you could possibly run it with checkinstall or strace to see which files it tries to create
[01:19] <LjL> and then remove manually
[01:19] <LjL> that's far from ideal i guess
[01:19] <orangePnut> I need help connecting to the internet using dial-up
[01:20] <Name141> Is it nessessary to still do the old stuff when doing a dual boot?  Backing up windows, installing windows again on the smaller partition , then installing the linux version ?
[01:20] <kojiro> shouldn't root always have a password, even if it's a randomly generated one?
[01:20] <allobjects> Due to bug related to my wireless card I need to run 'sudo /etc/init.d/networking restart' after a reboot to get my card going. I have done this in my session startup programs but is there any way I can ensure this runs without loging into any user ?
[01:20] <Kasplatt> LjL: hehe it's .exes , and I have to use Wine to do so.
[01:20] <XxXValeteXxX> hiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii =**********
[01:20] <XxXValeteXxX> How can I set a video as my wallpaper?
[01:20] <Bassman321> Convert it to a .gif
[01:20] <nickrud> Name141: no, if you have vista use vista's partition resizer, otherwise ubuntu has a partition resizer. Backups are always wise, however
[01:21] <Kasplatt> XxXValeteXxX: only way I know is by using VLC player. if you want sound and stuff.
[01:21] <LjL> nickrud: well init=/bin/sh was always the standard way to just boot into a root console without further ado. oh one hand, it's useful if you've been foolish enough to set a root password and forget it ;)  on the other hand, it helps reminding that if one has physical access to a machine, there's nothing stopping them from logging in as root
[01:21] <kojiro> Bassman321: ok, try this
[01:21] <XxXValeteXxX> Bassman321, I can use gifs as wallpaper? O_o
[01:21] <Bassman321> Yes
[01:21] <XxXValeteXxX> Bassman321, cool :-O
[01:21] <Bassman321> Yeah very
[01:21] <kojiro> Bassman321: connect to the thing like last time, and wait until it gives you 78% or whatever
[01:21] <XxXValeteXxX> Kasplatt, I just want the looks
[01:21] <Bassman321> Ok
[01:22] <Name141> nickrud: so I just back up stuff now, for now, then install Ubuntu, and it SHOULD repartition things, and KEEP my current data on windows also ? (and the hidden dell partition for the system image?)
[01:22] <XxXValeteXxX> Kasplatt, I was going for sunny beach thing
[01:22] <XxXValeteXxX> :p
[01:22] <kojiro> Bassman321: then try to ping <IP_ADDRESS> (that's google)
[01:22] <kojiro> Bassman321: but ping the IP address, not google.com
[01:22] <Kasplatt> XxXValeteXxX: hehe ok , then .gifs I guess, if that's possible ;)
[01:22] <nickrud> LjL: I do wish I'd known about /bin/sh (well I did, but assumed it would require a password). Mucking with shadow reminded me again why I have a bios password (and a lock on the case)
[01:23] <kojiro> and _still_ there's no such thing as local security :)
[01:23] <nickrud> Name141: yes. If you've done any partitioning in the past, you'll find it very straightforward
[01:23] <LjL> kojiro, i'm only assuming that it's a wifi network you're talking about, and even then, i know nothing about those. but https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/WPAHowTo#head-92c70cd59ecb39c8645a88a26134115395c7d904 seems like it might be relevant
[01:23] <subopt> Is there a straighforward way to tell KDE that i want Emacs style keybindings for things like editing fields in forms; entering URLs in firefox; etc?
[01:23] <kojiro> LjL: thanks, opening
[01:24] <LjL> nickrud: yeah that's the best one can conceivably do. although i suppose some mechanism that degausses the HD when one tries to force the case open would beat it ;)
[01:24] <echowip> i just installed ubuntu and in network settings my wireless conection isn't being noticed....
[01:24] <nickrud> LjL: :)
[01:24] <echowip> what do i do to make sure my wireless adapter is being noticed?
[01:24] <kojiro> LjL: but that's just a DoS vuln :P
[01:25] <p1> When I use my wireless card, my computer freezes for about 5 seconds often and unpredicably.  It's a Belkin F5D7010 v7, which should work with ndiswrapper, according to https://help.ubuntu.com/community/HardwareSupportComponentsWirelessNetworkCardsBelkin
[01:25] <Bassman321> So how do I ping an adresse?
[01:25] <LjL> subopt: not a positive answer, but http://lists.kde.org/?l=kde&m=117678980105459&w=2
[01:25] <Kasplatt> Bassman321: ping "adress" ?
[01:25] <Bassman321> Ok
[01:25] <Bassman321> Thanks
[01:25] <LjL> kojiro: hm?
[01:25] <kojiro> Bassman321: open a terminal and type ping -c3 <address>
[01:25] <subopt> LjL: thanks
[01:26] <Bassman321> So after I ping the site what do I do?
[01:26] <blake_> anyone know how to dismount a fat32 external on ubuntu
[01:26] <WooD> how come gparted is very slow to check for drives ?
[01:27] <blake_> the drive has never been opened in ubuntu
[01:27] <aszwet1> hi i had apach2 up and running and then i accidently deleted /var/www using rm command
[01:27] <aszwet1> any help?
[01:27] <kojiro> Bassman321: does the ping succeed?
[01:28] <martin_> hi!
[01:28] <allobjects> How can I run a command as part of the bootup without having to log into any user ?
[01:28] <th0r> aszwet1 do you have a backup?
[01:28] <martin_> new to ubuntu
[01:28] <martin_> how can i do to edit menus from the top bar?
[01:28] <aszwet1> th0r
[01:28] <aszwet1> don't think so lol
[01:28] <martin_> I can add new menus/items but can't delete them :P
[01:28] <th0r> aszwet1 I don't think there is any way to retrieve it...not like windows
[01:29] <aszwet1> the only thing that was there was apache2 folder with the test.php
[01:29] <aszwet1> but that doesn't mean that apache2 won't work does it?
[01:29] <Kasplatt> martin_: uhh you right click on the thing you want to delete and press remove applet ?
[01:29] <Daisuke_Ido> this is probably a really retarded question, but how can i adjust the gamma settings for the desktop?
[01:29] <th0r> aszwet1 /var/www contained your website?
[01:29] <Kasplatt> martin_: or it's called "Remove From Panel" I don't remember
[01:29] <aszwet1> nope th0r torrentflux, but i was installing something new anyways
[01:30] <allobjects> Can someone please tell me how to add a command to some startup script so that it runs each time the machine boots ?
[01:30] <aszwet1> i was just wondering if by deleteing the apache2 folder that made apache2 stop working... th0r?
[01:30] <Jack_Sparrow> martin_: Use Terminal and type gconf-editor
[01:30] <th0r> aszwet1 then yes, apache should be ok. There are only a few files in /var/www/apache2...3 gifs, 2 png, and index.html. If you need them I could probably get them to you
[01:31] <Jack_Sparrow> allobjects: You want it to run at grub selection...?
[01:31] <th0r> aszwet1 not sure, but I don't think so. I think the apache2-default folder is just the page that loads when you first install apache2 before configuring it
[01:31] <aszwet1> oh thank god
[01:31] <aszwet1> lol
[01:32] <Doonz> how do i check what kernel version im using?
[01:32] <th0r> aszwet1 give me a sec and I will find out.
[01:32] <Jack_Sparrow> Doonz: uname -a
[01:32] <allobjects> Jack_Sparrow: I need to run 'sudo /etc/init.d/networking restart' so by the time the machine is sitting at login prompt that it has run
[01:32] <th0r> aszwet1 I am remoting to my server to see exactly what that index.html is
[01:33] <allobjects> Jack_Sparrow: it is a work around for a bug related to my wireless card
[01:33] <blake_> Hi there.  I accidentally deleted it from my sessions.
[01:35] <Kasplatt> SANTAbios: if you go to the adobe website you can download flash there
[01:35] <Jack_Sparrow> !flashissues > SANTAbios
[01:35] <SANTAbios> so support it, why wont ubuntu support flash
[01:35] <allobjects> SANTAbios: yes mine works ... see http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=636397
[01:35] <Jack_Sparrow> SANTAbios: Read the link/info
[01:35] <bazhang> SANTAbios: you were given a link--go read it please
[01:35] <Doonz> uname -l doesnt work
[01:35] <th0r> aszwet1 yup...it is the 'It works!' screen that shows up when you first run apache....not needed
[01:36] <Jack_Sparrow> Doonz: I thought I said -a
 Doonz: uname -l
[01:36] <soldats> uname -a
[01:36] <Jack_Sparrow> Doonz: Should give All info
[01:36] <Doonz> ok
[01:36] <icesword> how to add a excutable attibute for a file from the command line?
[01:36] <Doonz> it says linux server <IP_ADDRESS>
[01:36] <ethan961> chmod +x
[01:37] <Jack_Sparrow> Doonz: Yep, I gave it to you .. with your name highlighted 5 minutes ago
[01:37] <icesword> ethan961, yes ,ok ,good
[01:37] <jonny_> how do i see who is log into my machine using ssh i dont see them when using who
[01:37] <khaotik> whats a good graphical system monitoe
[01:37] <khaotik> monitor
[01:37] <soldats> gnome system monitor
[01:37] <SANTAbios> can someone help me, instead of telling me to read old docs
[01:37] <th0r> jonny_  you can do 'ps ax | grep ssh'
[01:38] <Doonz> can i upgrade this kernel to 2.6.23?
[01:38] <SANTAbios> i have ubuntu 7.1, now im a 65 yrs old
[01:38] <Jack_Sparrow> SANTAbios: Dont be rude.. it isnt hard to do..
[01:38] <kojiro> Bassman321: any luck?
[01:38] <nano__> hey guys, i have a really wierd problem with my sound on my toshiba laptop.....the problem is strange because i am dual booting with windows and if i boot into linux with windows vista in suspend or hibernate mode, my linux sound works; however, if i log out of vista and do a shutdown and then log into ubuntu, my sound doesn't work.................has anybody ever come across anything like this before?
[01:38] <p1> blake_: use the mount command from the terminal (see "man mount").  But I suspect it will give you the same error messge.  Also, try looking at the disk using gparted or parted
[01:38] <SANTAbios> and youtube freezes my box, i hate it
[01:38] <SANTAbios> please is there an easy way?
[01:38] <soldats> go to the adobe home page
[01:38] <flyingfree> LjL and Kojire (?) thanks!!
[01:38] <bazhang> SANTAbios: http://www.ubuntu.com/support/paid
[01:38] <kojiro> flyingfree: heh, I didn't do anything
[01:38] <kojiro> so you're welcome
[01:39] <Bassman> Im back
[01:39] <kojiro> Bassman321: welcome back :)
[01:39] <Jack_Sparrow> SANTAbios: I'm 55 that does not mean I get to be rude and spoon fed...  It is two lines to read.. how hard is that...
[01:39] <Bassman> Thanks
[01:39] <th0r> nano__  I am running a dual boot Toshiba A200 and when I use windows, the next time I start linux the sound doesn't work. I have to shutdown completely after running windows...a reboot won't do
[01:39] <Jack_Sparrow> SANTAbios: The workaround I used is to first go to synaptic, select the flashplugin-nonfree package and then mark it for *complete* removal. Then install the hardy flashplugin,  http://launchpadlibrarian.net/10761023/flashplugin-nonfree_<IP_ADDRESS>ubuntu2_i386.deb
[01:39] <SANTAbios> hey jack please help me
[01:39] <Bassman> The pinging didn't work
[01:39] <allobjects> SANTAbios: sorry I thought you were looking at how to install flash. Do you know what version you have installed ?
[01:39] <SANTAbios> no sir
[01:40] <kojiro> Bassman: OK, that confirms that despite what nm-applet says you are not connected
[01:40] <jonny_> thor: is there any other easier way?
[01:40] <p1> icesword: "chmod +x FILENAME", or "chmod o+x FILENAME". See "man chmod"
[01:40] <nano__> thOr: for me i don't have sound if vista is completely shutdown, but i have sound if vista is in suspend/hibernate....i guess this is the opposeite of you
[01:40] <soldats> SANTAbios, open firefox and type about:plugins and make sure you have version 9
[01:40] <matkix> I need help...............= Oddly enough I got my wireless card to work right out of the gate! Great news! However, I just noticed my LAN card will not work at all... So Anyone have any ideas on how I might resolve this issue?
[01:40] <kojiro> Bassman: you might find it easier to just plug in instead of rebooting and reconnecting all the time
[01:40] <jonny_> its pretty crowded
[01:40] <th0r> nano__  either way...the tosh seems to have some issue with windows/linux sound
[01:40] <allobjects> SANTAbios: are you using fire fox browser ?
[01:40] <Bassman> Yeah to make it look connecteed, I have to keep setting up my ip and turning on and off roaming mode
[01:40] <Jack_Sparrow> soldats: Even if it shows he has 9 it does not mean it installed correctly
[01:40] <kojiro> matkix: that's rare
[01:40] <SANTAbios> yes
[01:40] <RenatoSilva> what's the CCSM option to control what to do on double-clicking window title?
[01:40] <nano__> th0r: have you come across any solutions?
[01:40] <SANTAbios> firefox
[01:40] <SANTAbios> which browser should i use
[01:40] <matkix> kojiro, So can you help?! :)
[01:40] <Bassman> What do you mean plug
[01:41] <Jack_Sparrow> RenatoSilva: Try asking in #Compiz
[01:41] <kojiro> matkix: I dunno
[01:41] <Bassman> Im dual booting
[01:41] <soldats> Jack_Sparrow, yes i know but there was a problem with flash 8 not working on youtube since he specifically said youtube
[01:41] <nano__> th0r: so basically after using windows , you just shutdown, and then start up again...and you get sound?
[01:41] <kojiro> matkix: what makes you say it doesn't work at all?
[01:41] <Oqtol> Anyone chime in on the best place to put cpan files? I'm installing Bugzilla and it's requiring me to d/l some cpan perl files but suggesting i place them in my /home directory... which isn't the best idea i'm thinking
[01:41] <th0r> nano__  no...on the rare occasion I use windows I just reboot a couple of times to get sound back <smile>
[01:41] <echowip> !Ndiswrapper
[01:41] <ubotu> Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs
[01:41] <kojiro> Bassman: I get that
[01:41] <th0r> nano__  yup
[01:41] <flyingfree> LjL thanks
[01:41] <SANTAbios> allobjects which browser should i use?}
[01:41] <matkix> kojiro,  Its not showing up! :(
[01:41] <nano__> th0r: very interesting...
[01:41] <LjL> matkix: is the card recognized at all? in ifconfig? ifconfig -a? it might be network-manager's fault...
[01:41] <allobjects> SANTAbios: that browser should be fine.
[01:41] <nano__> th0r: what kinda sound hardware do you have MCP51 i suppose?
[01:41] <kojiro> matkix: where should it show up that it's not showing up?
[01:41] <nickrud> Oqtol: why not use the bugzilla from the repos?
[01:41] <ahz> Which ubuntu package contains rpm2cpio ?
[01:41] <RenatoSilva> Does anyone got ltmodem working on an Agere?
[01:41] <LjL> !find rpm2cpio | ahz
[01:41] <Oqtol> It's out of date like subversion is isn't it?
[01:41] <nickrud> !find rpm2cipio
[01:42] <ubotu> ahz: File rpm2cpio found in rpm
[01:42] <ahz> thanks
[01:42] <ubotu> Package/file rpm2cipio does not exist in gutsy
[01:42] <nickrud> Oqtol: ah, that's a reason not to
[01:42] <LjL> !apt-file > ahz    (ahz, see the private message from Ubotu)
[01:42] <Jack_Sparrow> nickrud: tag.....
[01:42] <nickrud> Jack_Sparrow: at work, I duck
[01:42] <matkix> Network manager. I havent checked ifconfig
[01:42] <At0mic_PC> Can someone refresh my memory on bluetooth?
[01:42] <fallore> i'm using dvd::rip and it's telling me i don't have xine. i'm trying to install it but synaptic-manager told me it wasn't for me i386 pc and a "sudo apt-get install xine" doesn't work. any ideas?
[01:42] <acidfire2008> does ubuntu server come with gnome and ubuntu desktop?
[01:42] <Jack_Sparrow> ahz: What are you trying to do with an RPM
[01:42] <LjL> At0mic_PC: specifically?
[01:42] <kojiro> matkix: check lshw and ifconfig
[01:43] <LjL> acidfire2008: no
[01:43] <Oqtol> nickrud: Not understanding :), I used the repos for mysql as it was v5, but bugzilla isn't at 3 in the repos is it?
[01:43] <ahz> Jack_Sparrow: unpack it as if it were a tarball
[01:43] <At0mic_PC> I had it set up so that I could right click a file and "SEND" "Chris" but I got a new phone and can't remember how to get my new phone in the list.
[01:43] <acidfire2008> so if u want a gui would i need to install gdm and ubuntu desktop?
[01:43] <flyingfree> kojiro yeah you did saved me about three to four hours worht of time reinstalling ubunut from scratch
[01:43] <LjL> acidfire2008: ubuntu-desktop alone will do, it depends on gdm.
[01:43] <matkix> LjL, I checked ifconfig and I have an eth0 and eth1 and eth1 is my wireless. I also have a mess of vm adapters... however I do see an eth 0 with what appears to be a vaild mac address.
[01:43] <Jack_Sparrow> ahz: Using rpm's you can use alien.. but I strongly suggest against it
[01:43] <nickrud> Oqtol: you should consider putting them in /usr/local somewhere, I'm sure cpan has a suggestion for that.
[01:43] <allobjects> SANTAbios: In a new tab enter 'about:plugins' without the quoted to see what version of the Showckwave Flash plugin is installed
[01:43] <Jack_Sparrow> !alien
[01:43] <ubotu> RPM is the RedHat Package Management system. Ubuntu uses !APT, not RPM. RPM packages are not supported (the package "alien" can allow installing them, but it's quite dangerous)
[01:44] <ahz> I don't need to install. I just need to grab 1 file out of an rpm
[01:44] <fallore> i'm using dvd::rip and it's telling me i don't have xine. i'm trying to install it but synaptic-manager told me it wasn't for me i386 pc and a "sudo apt-get install xine" doesn't work. any ideas?
[01:44] <kojiro> flyingfree: alright me! go me!
[01:44] <LjL> matkix: and it's supposed to have an IP address? or get it from a DHCP server, or something?
[01:44] <nickrud> Oqtol: if you want a later version, for a reason, that makes sense.
[01:44] <ahz> I suppose I can use alien to convert rpm to tarball
[01:44] <matkix> Should have an ip address...
[01:44] <acidfire2008> LjL ty
[01:44] <Oqtol> nickrud, i'll place them in /usr/local in some directory, if nothing is standardized for cpan files. Thanks for your help
[01:44] <acidfire2008> ive been wondering bc i want to remote into a gui
[01:45] <acidfire2008> with like vnc and shit
[01:45] <RenatoSilva> RenatoSilva: Does anyone got ltmodem working on an Agere?
[01:45] <LjL> ahz, either will do fine. what Jack_Sparrow is saying is that blindly installing an RPM under Ubuntu is bound to lead to trouble... but if you know what you're doing and extract single files in /usr/local or /opt, you should be fine
[01:45] <fallore> i'm using dvd::rip and it's telling me i don't have xine. i'm trying to install it but synaptic-manager told me it wasn't for me i386 pc and a "sudo apt-get install xine" doesn't work. any ideas?
[01:45] <Zloog> Hi, is there a way to use apt-get to find out what package installed a particular file?
[01:45] <matkix> LjL,  I would like to  be able to get to it from the network manager so I can change it on the fly. My job requires me to be connected to many networks a day and I need it to be quick and easy to change my ip.
[01:46] <Zloog> fallore: what error does apt-get give you?
[01:46] <allobjects> SANTAbios: that should bring up a page of all installed plugins in your firefox browser. Did that work ?
[01:46] <nickrud> Oqtol: one more thing, you should see if the cpan module has already been made as a deb, many have
[01:46] <RichW> Hi, I just installed about 164 updates and rebooted after first installation.. most applications exit with this error (Even gnome-terminal!): Bus error (core dumped)
[01:46] <LjL> matkix, problem is, i have to say that network-manager is generally a chore to use, from many reports i've seen :| my suggestion is, try configuring it manually in /etc/network/interfaces, and see what comes out of it
[01:46] <RichW> Ideas?
[01:46] <fallore> Zloog: pmed you
[01:46] <Bassman> Im going to try to use ndiswrapper or whatever
[01:46] <Bassman> Do you think that's a good idea
[01:47] <nickrud> fallore: install xine-ui
[01:47] <ctothej> My gutsy install cds (desktop and alternate) never get past the "Starting system log daemon: syslogd, klogd." stage. It just hands there with a blinking cursor. What is going on? What can I do to install gutsy?
[01:47] <Oqtol> nickrud: I actually did that and grabbed a few, some were out of date though, causing module-check on bugzilla install to kick back to span links
[01:47] <LjL> RichW: got any third party repositories enabled? did the updates upgrade your kernel?
[01:47] <Kuropon> looking for someone with ATI card and has 3D effects running
[01:47] <Oqtol> *span = cpan
[01:47] <nickrud> Oqtol: you're ahead of me :0
[01:47] <fallore> nickrud: installing atm, hope this works :]
[01:47]  * nickrud waves hand at Kuropon
[01:47] <RichW> LjL: yes it upgraded my kernel.. and no 3rd partys
[01:47] <matkix> LjL, What do you mean try to configure manually? Like every time I want to change the ip address?
[01:47] <Oqtol> nickrud: Just love apt-get
[01:47] <Oqtol> nickrud: not ahead. haha
[01:48] <RichW> LjL: I only see one kernel in grub boot...
[01:48] <ogre> hey guys, I added kde then went back to gnome. now rar isnt working for double compressed .r01 .r02 files. any suggestions on how to fix this?
[01:48]  * Kuropon waves back at nickrud
[01:48] <nickrud> Kuropon: what video chip do you run
[01:48] <Doonz> ANyone use port multipliers in ubuntu?
[01:48] <arken_> Hello. How do I patch Sauerbraten?
[01:48] <Kuropon> nickrud, I got you opened in private window
[01:49] <nickrud> Kuropon: you must not be registered, I'm not seeing you
[01:49] <LjL> RichW: yeah, because the update was a minor revision number (or whatever it's called) update... perhaps try forcing installation of the old kernel with « sudo apt-get install packagename=version » (make sure you do the same with modules & all, see « dpkg -l | grep linux »), though i cannot guarantee anything
[01:49] <LjL> matkix, well not necessarily, you can still set it up for DHCP
[01:49] <At0mic_PC> LjL: I've been able to send a file to the computer with the phone. And in windows on this same box I was able to send a file from the computer to the phone.
[01:49] <nickrud> Kuropon: it's pretty straightforward, we can do it here in mainline
[01:49] <Kuropon> nickrud, gah ok well.. chip? meaning?
[01:49] <nickrud> Kuropon: like a 9500, or x1xxx, or 200m
[01:49] <Kuropon> nickrud, sec
[01:49] <matkix> LjL, I use 10+networks a day with no dhcp can you offer a better suited suggestion? Or should I just ditch ubuntu all together and go xp?
[01:50] <nickrud> Kuropon: lspci | grep -i vga   in a terminal will tell you
[01:50] <arken_> I need to know how to patch Sauerbraten. I am a noob to linux, where is the equivelent of the "Program Files" Folder?
[01:51] <fsanlu> does anyone know how to like get a certain file type to be used by a different program other than the default? for example i have some mp3's that i want to play using VLC and not the movie player, which is used as default.
[01:51] <th0r> matkix do you have static ip addresses in each of the networks?
[01:51] <RenatoSilva> Does anyone got ltmodem working on an Agere?

[01:51] <LjL> At0mic_PC: i'm on KDE so can't say for sure how that's supposed to be done in GNOME... i think you should be able to type "obex://" in a Nautilus window. possibly. you might need to run « sudo apt-get install gnome-vfs-obexftp » to achieve that
[01:51] <nickrud> arken_: there is no exact equiv, the files get scattered around the filesystem base on function.  dpkg -L <pkgname> will tell you where
[01:51] <allobjects> fsanlu: look at file properties 'open with' tab
[01:52] <LjL> matkix: err if you need to manually change IP address that often, what difference does it actually make if you do it from n-m or using /etc/network/interfaces?
[01:52] <arken_> What if i do not know the pkgname?
[01:52] <RichW> At0mic_PC: You need gnome-ftp-obex i think it was.. i might of got package name wrong
[01:52] <Johnson> hey skype is opening then just closing
[01:52] <nickrud> Kuropon: hrm.  Don't know that unknown chip :)  Is it real new, or real old?
[01:52] <XxXValeteXxX> What program can I use to edit gif files? I wanna edit them frame per frame

[01:54] <bazhang> fallore: yes
[01:54] <matkix> LjL, Another issue I have had. It takes over 10 min to boot my system. Can you provide any input as into how I might trim this down to at least = to a windows boot?
[01:54] <nickrud> Kuropon: a sec, I need to find out which driver supports that one
[01:54] <LjL> XxXValeteXxX: if the GIMP is unable to do that out of the box, use something like "gifsicle" to extract the single images from the GIF, edit each of them, and then re-create the GIF animation with gifsicle again

[01:54] <bazhang> pvl1: how well; or how to use it?
[01:55] <allobjects> SANTAbios: sounds like your problem is fixed ?
[01:55] <jonny_> is there a simple way to see who is logging using ssh ? besides ps ax | grep ssh?
[01:55] <fallore> bazhang: can we talk in pm?
[01:55] <arken_> Hmm. This still leaves me with the issue of how to patch Sauerbraten. I got the folder, but I don't know how to do it...
[01:55] <bazhang> fallore: better to talk here
[01:55] <Doonz> is there  a way to search apt get?
[01:55] <fallore> thats fine bazhang
[01:55] <jonny_> i will see everything if i set up firestarter right?
[01:56] <bazhang> Doonz: apt-cache search
[01:56] <fabian__> hello .....I am new in ubuntu
[01:56] <LjL> matkix, you don't *have* to do that, it can most probably be fixed from within network-manager, i just don't know how, and have found that network-manager is a chore i don't really want to deal with. but you might have better luck with someone else. editing a text file each time? yeah, possibly, but you could also just run "ifconfig eth0 <address> gw <gateway>". you could even easily make a little graphical interface to that using zenity
[01:56] <bazhang> ask away fabian__
[01:56] <Doonz> apt-cache search packagename?
[01:56] <fallore> bazhang: what i've done so far is open the program, run the check test and edit the preferences to my liking. everything was green, i installed xine and rar and mplayer like it asked.
[01:56] <bazhang> Doonz: or related word like mp3 etc
[01:57] <matkix> LjL,  What about my boot time question?
[01:57] <fallore> bazhang: now i'm at the actual project window. i created a new project, told it where to look and the ripping mode. it doesn't seem to be dong anything and i don't really know how to make it do something.
[01:57] <Doonz> trying to find libata-tj-2.6.22
[01:57] <LjL> matkix, slow booting might be due to many factors, i suggest installing the "bootchart" package to see where it's getting stuck. do you see the splash screen while booting?

[01:57] <ogre> hey guys, I added kde then went back to gnome. now rar isnt working for double compressed .r01 .r02 files. any suggestions on how to fix this?
[01:57] <matkix> LjL,  No I don't see anything.... just a black screen.
[01:58] <bldzr> Hi there, since I upgraded from my Nvidia 7600GT to a 8800GTS (512MB/N92), I got hit by the "weird problem"-bat. When I boot kubuntu, my monitor starts switching between analog/digital before it decides to go to standy-mode. I've specified the problem in a post on the ubuntuforums ( http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=661343 ), but I thought that I'd ask here in #Ubuntu as well. I appreciate all the help I can get =)
[01:58] <LjL> !brokenusplash | matkix
[01:58] <SANTAbios> not it used to work fin
[01:58] <Kuropon> nickrud, do you run them without using the composite? or with
[01:58] <ubotu> matkix: Supported screen resolutions are sometimes detected incorrectly, causing the splash screen to not appear and slowing down boot. Edit /etc/usplash.conf and change "xres" and "yres" to a resolution that your graphics system certainly supports, then run « sudo update-usplash-theme usplash-theme-ubuntu »
[01:58] <SANTAbios> now my flash is screwed why?
[01:58] <acidfire2008> LjL can i pm u?
[01:58] <ogre> err i added kubuntu-desktop I should say
[01:58] <Prez_> hello
[01:58] <fallore> bazhang: sorry to bother you, did you read my messages or should i re-enter them?
[01:58] <fabian__> one question.. I cant install my card video (ATI 9550)
[01:58] <nickrud> Kuropon: you have to use the ati drivers from their website, http://ati.amd.com/support/drivers/linux/linux-radeon.html . You should use the instructions at http://wiki.cchtml.com/index.php/Ubuntu_Gutsy_Installation_Guide
[01:58] <Prez_> this is odd, just installed Gutsy on brand new thinkpad x61 and says cannot enable desktop effects, it was working fin on my previous ThinkpAd X60s
[01:59] <bazhang> pvl1: depends on the web page; generally clicking on the orange rss icon in the address bar will open up a feed page and then you hit subscribe; this can then be made a bookmark
[01:59] <Prez_> i have glxgears working fine
[01:59] <SANTAbios> man i 512 mb of ram, and my gnome is slow, how do i speed it up?

[01:59] <nickrud> Kuropon: I'm using that driver, and I have compiz working fine without xserver-xgl .
[01:59] <Kuropon> nickrud, what card u use

[01:59] <th0r> I have a package, nginx, a web server, that apparently got installed somewhere along the line. I can't get apt-get or synaptic to remove it...something aobut a post-installation script failure. Any way to clean this thing out?
[01:59] <SANTAbios> cool
[01:59] <puplin> Prez_: do you have gfx drivers running properly

[02:00] <SANTAbios> is it su
[02:00] <acidfire2008> ok i installed ubuntu desktop but how do i connect to it with vnc and actually see the desktop
[02:00] <Kuropon> nickrud, you have composite enabled ?
[02:00] <Prez_> puplin: how do I check that, I check glxinfo, and says I have DRI
[02:00] <acidfire2008> i can see its currently running
[02:01] <nickrud> Kuropon: yes, it's enabled automatically by X with that driver
[02:01] <bazhang> fallore: I have had troubles in the past with that particular app as well; I eventually just switched over to another one--are you set on using this one or are you open to suggestions for others?
[02:01] <LjL> th0r: is it the nginx package from the official repositories? do you have other third-party repositories enabled? if the answers are "yes" and "no", then file a bug at http://bugs.ubuntu.com/
[02:01] <bldzr> There's a swedish guy who makes ubuntu-remixes with the user running as root by default (oh, the agony) :p

[02:01] <nickrud> Kuropon: that howto page I gave you walks you through getting compiz up and running as well
[02:01] <bazhang> SANTAbios: no need to use root
[02:01] <Kuropon> nickrud, is your video playback flawless while havving compiz running?
[02:02] <rodolfo> hello everyone
[02:02] <th0r> LjL I don't ever recall installing it, suspect it was installed with something else and I didn't catch it. I have apache running on the server just fine. This nginx thing pops up an error every now and then, like when I updatedb...but it isn't running according to ps. I just want it out <smile>
[02:02] <nickrud> Kuropon: no, I have to use x11 to get playback.
[02:02] <Kuropon> nickrud, maning?
[02:02] <bldzr> Crazy activity in here :)
[02:02] <acidfire2008> LjL how do i get into the ubuntu desktop now
[02:02] <Kuropon> nickrud, meaning?*
[02:03] <bazhang> fallore: well how squeamish are you about using non-gnome apps with your gnome desktop? if not, then k3b does the job for me
[02:03] <LjL> th0r: if you "just want it out", edit the postinst and stick a line saying « exit 0 » right after the first #!/bin/sh line. no guarantees though.
[02:03] <nickrud> Kuropon: or, switch to metacity. x11 is a different video output, xv is the standard these days. You can set that video output in your players
[02:03] <fallore> bazhang: i dont even know why i would be squeamish :] i'll check it out, thanks. i just thought k3b was more for cds than dvd's, don't know why :p
[02:04] <th0r> LjL yeah...was hoping there was a way to tell dpkg or apt-get to dump it...but doesn't look like it.
[02:04] <bazhang> fallore: haha; k3b is remarkably versatile--they even have their own channel I believe :}
[02:04] <Kuropon> nickrud, doesn switching from xv to x11 downgrade performance?
[02:04] <th0r> LjL tried to reinstall it, but that didn't work either...so I am stuck in some midpoint
[02:04] <LjL> th0r: no, there is no "sane" way to do that. if the postinst isn't completing, it may mean files are being left over the place, or other unpleasant things... that's why APT just refuses to remove it. and why i said "no guarantees"
[02:04] <fallore> bazhang: could you direct me to it, just in case? :]
[02:05] <nickrud> Kuropon: some, yes. mplayer won't scale it, either. But you can switch easily between compiz and standard metacity easily.
[02:05] <SANTAbios> ok guys can i install my epson printer on ubuntu?
[02:05] <LjL> th0r: the "right" thing to do is file a bug.
[02:05] <th0r> LjL yup...thanks

[02:15] <gyaresu> zetheroo: commandline
[02:15] <bldzr> WooD: gparted might be a push in the right direction :)
[02:15] <gyaresu> zetheroo: But if you're having problems then it's the best place to be.
[02:16] <eHome> graelb: ubuntu's file browser -- should installed by default
[02:16] <hack184> i having a problem
[02:16] <joh6nn> gyaresu: sorry.  i can ping icarus.local, but icarus is a no-go
[02:16] <WooD> bldzr, I tried with gparted and when I start that software it takes about 5 min to open and when it'S open I can format the drive but when I try to access the drive it does not work :((
[02:16] <zetheroo> gyaresu: I just need an app which will aloow me to easily copy stuff to a BT device
[02:16] <gyaresu> zetheroo: something like 'hcitool dev' should show you your bluetooth devices.
[02:16] <hack184> Could not download all repository indexes
[02:16] <hack184> i get this error message Could not download all repository indexes
[02:16] <Superbike32> hey guys
[02:16] <graelb> eHome: <----running xubuntu, but if it installed with ubuntu, i'm sure it's not too hard to find ;-)
[02:16] <bazhang> fallore: this is perhaps not the best place for a walkthrough; could you take a look at their faq and docs first? it would simplify things immensely if you upped your knowledge base first :} http://k3b.plainblack.com/
[02:17] <nickrud> Kuropon: sorry, was away for a sec. agp is the kernel end allowing 3d acceleration.
[02:17] <WooD> bldzr,  it gives me an error
[02:17] <gyaresu> joh6nn: Maybe set icarus in your /etc/hosts file via its IP.
[02:17] <LjL> matkix: yes. try this: echo -e "IP1\nIP2\nIP3" | zenity --list --column="IP"
[02:17] <fallore> bazhang: sure, that should've been the first thing i did. sorry
[02:17] <eHome> graelb: i only use ubuntu - not sure what xubuntu - ask the guru's
[02:17] <Superbike32> Hello guys!
[02:17] <gyaresu> zetheroo: Then use the default gnome bluetooth manager.
[02:17] <bassman> My network adapter can see the networks, I just can't connect
[02:17] <bassman> Any help?
[02:17] <WooD> I have to take a windows to make a format on it :S
[02:17] <gyaresu> zetheroo: Or the KDE version. kbluetoothmanager (or something like that)
[02:17] <graelb> ehome: it's ok, you've helped =) thank you!
[02:17] <bldzr> WooD: Hmm, I'm no expert, can't really help you there
[02:17] <Thorsten11> Anyone know of a good write up for setting up a print server with server 7.10
[02:17] <matkix> LjL, Say I want to enter 2 commonly used ip addresses. Is there a way I could put them in the script and it would prompt me what of the two ip's I wanted to use?
[02:17] <WooD> bldzr, ok
[02:17] <gyaresu> bassman: Encryption on the router?
[02:17] <Superbike32> can anyone help me on how to install ubuntu via the live cd version in a clean install?
[02:18] <bldzr> But I'll check google :)
[02:18] <LjL> matkix: err... yes, i just told you
[02:18] <matkix> er lol
[02:18] <matkix> sorry
[02:18] <gyaresu> Superbike32: Have you clicked the 'install' button on the desktop?
[02:18] <MoLE_> Superbike32, what help do you need?
[02:18] <Superbike32> yes
[02:18] <Superbike32> i dont understand all the things on it
[02:18] <Superbike32> the allocation of spaces and stuff

[02:19] <MoLE_> Superbike32, that's called the partitioning stage of the install.  Are you installing to a blank hard disk?
[02:19] <Thorsten11> http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=1831119
[02:19] <LjL> matkix: where /usr/local/etc/my-addresses would be a text file containing a list of the IP's you want to select from, each on a separate line
[02:20] <gyaresu> bassman: So you've tried the GUI.  Why not just install package via apt?
[02:21] <fotoflo> i would like to compile apache myself, but i want to use checkinstall to make sure that if everything doesnt go well, i have an easy way to uninstall
[02:21] <th0r> does anyone know how to remove a package entry so synaptic doesn't know it is there anymore?
[02:21] <fotoflo> unfortuatly checkinstall doesnt seem to be in the repos, is that correct?
[02:21] <nickrud> Kuropon: ah, I see. You have a point. why not put him on?
[02:21] <bazhang> brokenFUN: no idea what you did--how can others fix it?
[02:21]  * MoLE_ thinks Superbike32 is off reading the documentation.
[02:21] <IdleOne> Kuropon: why is someone else messing with anything on your system
[02:21] <jrib> !info checkinstall | fotoflo
[02:21] <ubotu> fotoflo: checkinstall: installation tracker. In component universe, is optional. Version 1.6.1-4ubuntu1 (gutsy), package size 113 kB, installed size 544 kB
[02:21] <Superbike32> mine seems to differ a little
[02:22] <gyaresu> brokenFUN: ah. Right then you compiled it in a directory right?
[02:22] <brokenFUN> gyaresu: like i said i needed to PATCH it
[02:22] <Superbike32> from the documentation
[02:22] <Kuropon> IdleOne, because I am clueless on how to use linux
[02:22] <jrib> fotoflo: have you enabled the universe repository?
[02:22] <zero88> anyone familiar with the Gem packag manager???
[02:22] <Kuropon> nickrud, seems busy with someone else
[02:22] <MoLE_> Superbike32, so what is different to the documentation?
[02:22] <genesis> hello all how do I take a picture I got from a cellphone sent to evolution to change from a "mailbox file" to one of jpg or png?
[02:22] <fotoflo> jrib: probably not
[02:22] <IdleOne> Kuropon: follow nickrud's advice and directions you will be fine.
[02:22] <fotoflo> lemme check
[02:22] <jrib> !universe > fotoflo (read the private message from ubotu)
[02:22] <gyaresu> brokenFUN: Did you compile the source from a download or did you try and hack up a .deb package?
[02:22] <brokenFUN> what dir would it be in then so i could remove mplayer after compiling/installing?
[02:22] <pvl1> anychance someone can explain to me what parsing is?
[02:22] <Ward1983> brokenFUN, did you install with "sudo make install" ?
[02:22] <zetheroo> gyaresu: I have successfully paired the device using the Ubuntu Gnome BT app.... but how do I go about moving data
[02:22] <zetheroo> ?
[02:22] <IdleOne> Kuropon: not to mention you cant learn unless you do it
[02:23] <kojiro> bleh
[02:23] <Superbike32> i will be back in a few mins guys, hopefully.............
[02:23] <brokenFUN> Ward1983: yeah i did
[02:23] <Superbike32> i will try again to install it........
[02:23] <nickrud> IdleOne: Kuropon has a point, I'm at work. Thinks are very slow right now here, but I do disappear for a couple minutes at a time
[02:23] <hack184> i keep on getting an error Could not download all repository indexes
[02:23] <jrib> pvl1: can you be more specific?
[02:23] <Kuropon> IdleOne, slowly reading on how to do things.. last time I did things myself it didnt go well
[02:23] <fotoflo> k
[02:23] <fotoflo> reading
[02:23] <jrib> pvl1: otherwise... http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parsing
[02:23] <Ward1983> brokenFUN, then you should be able to uninstall with "sudo make uninstall" in the same directory with the source
[02:24] <IdleOne> nickrud: ahh I see. Kuropon doctors have a saying : see it once do it once teach it once. goosd thing we arent doctors huh :)
[02:24] <Ward1983> brokenFUN, that allways worked for me so far
[02:24] <nickrud> lol
[02:24] <nickrud> IdleOne: but I do have to say that performing surgery on dpkg stuff gets my blood flowing :)
[02:25] <IdleOne> nickrud: :)
[02:25] <gyaresu> brokenFUN: Ward1983 I like to make the package in a 'download' directory and then copy the binary to a ~./bin/ folder which I've made in my path. Helps not installing unsupported packages.
[02:25] <Kuropon> nickrud, can you send me your xorg.config?
[02:25] <brokenFUN> i get a Make *** error
[02:25] <IdleOne> brokenFUN: what error?
[02:25] <brokenFUN> make: *** No rule to make target `uninstall'.  Stop.
[02:25] <Ward1983> gyaresu, i do that too but i rarely need to compile :-)
[02:25] <gyaresu> Ward1983: :)
[02:25] <rodolfo> bazhang: i can't find it neither on freedesktop.org nor on the terminal. do you know where it is available for download?
[02:26] <pvl1> jrib, what does it do? like why do we need it?
[02:26] <jrib> pvl1: if it's not an ubuntu support question, please ask in a different room.  #ubuntu-offtopic for example
[02:27] <Ward1983> brokenFUN, are you in the right directory? (the same one u were in when doing sudo make install)
[02:27] <pvl1> jrib, oh sorry then.
[02:27] <nickrud> Kuropon: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/51168/ . It's the standard one that ubuntu creates by default, with fglrx replacing ati

[02:27] <Superbike32> GUYS
[02:27] <brokenFUN> sure is
[02:27] <Kuropon> nickrud, yours >>
[02:27] <rodolfo> bazhang: no, on gutsy
[02:27] <matkix> LjL, How do I make it so when I click on the icon it executes it rather than opening up a text doc?
[02:27] <rodolfo> bazhang: should I add some repo manually?
[02:28] <Superbike32> when i run the install, i dont see an option to type in my name, or format harddrive or anything, just showing me how much to make to a new partition, and it wont let me do 100%
[02:28] <zetheroo> I need help with bluetooth in Ubuntu
[02:28] <gyaresu> Superbike32: Did you chose the option to 'use whole drive' (or similar)
[02:28] <Ward1983> brokenFUN, no idea then, it allways worked for me
[02:29] <Kuropon> nickrud, so you haven't done anything to change it?
[02:29] <brokenFUN> Ward1983: never mind i got it to work
[02:29] <brokenFUN> thanks
[02:29] <Ward1983> brokenFUN, no problem
[02:29] <bgt421> hi everyone,  I'm new to linux and I can't find the NetworkManager applet in Gnome. nm-applet and NetworkManager are running, but I can't see the applet in the panel. Any idea how to get it back>
[02:29] <Superbike32> for me
[02:29] <Superbike32> there is not that option
[02:29] <IdleOne> Superbike32: before entering user name and passwords it installs the system. partitions first and the option is " use entire space" or sonething similar
[02:29] <Ward1983> anyone ever installed code::blocks?
[02:30] <Kuropon> nickrud, how do I view mine?
[02:30] <Superbike32> that option fails to appear for me
[02:30] <LjL> matkix, just making it executable should do it. « chmod +x filename »
[02:30] <Superbike32> it asks me which hd to install to, then tells me to select how much to move to anew partition
[02:30] <Superbike32> and it wont let me 100%

[02:30] <shadix> grr
[02:30] <s_spiff> bgt421, ok newbish way, but still, did you restart your system and try?
[02:30] <IdleOne> Superbike32: when it shows you the partition it wants to create there should be a second line with a button you click to use all the hardrive

[02:31] <matkix> LjL, I did it... and when I click on the icon it just opens a text editor.
[02:31] <gyaresu> Superbike32: Try and be specific as to which bit you got up to .
[02:31] <zetheroo> Bluetooth anyone?
[02:31] <Kuropon> nickrud, so use an editor? and path?
[02:31] <bgt421> s_spiff: yeah. "Network manager"  is in the Sessions-> startup section, and later just to be sure I added "nm-manager" and restarted. didn't work
[02:32] <Superbike32> I will bring back up my ubuntu, and if it still dont work, ill come back and tell you whats not working.

[02:33] <bazhang> rodolfo: hehe no worries :}
[02:34] <th0r> Fezzler in most cases the isp registers the mac address of the modem. If that is the case you will have to register the modem, and pay for the service.
[02:34] <s_spiff> bgt421, the command for the network manager in the sessions should be : nm-applet --sm-disable
[02:34] <fallore> how can i get my linux computer to sync up with the workgroup the rest of the (windows) computers are using in the house?
[02:35] <th0r> fallore look at fusesmb
[02:35] <allobjects> If I have a script file on my desktop as follows: "-rwxrwxrwx 1 user user 141 2008-01-08 12:28 force-wireless" why can't I execute this from a terminal ?
[02:35] <bgt421> s_spiff: ok I'll try that. what does that mean, exactly?
[02:35] <aszwet1> hello i'm trying to install mod_scgi modules for apache2 is there anyone who know how this is done?
[02:35] <s_spiff> bgt421, and the other thing you've added to Sessions the nm-manager, well I have no clue what that is.
[02:35] <joh6nn> gyaresu: ok, i seem to have gotten things closer to working; icarus.local seems to be resolving properly, now
[02:35] <fallore> th0r: i'm sorry, i dont understand :/
[02:35] <anakrakatoa> Ward1983:my card seems ok,the problem is "iwlist scan" always gets me the same results as it gives at the very first time.Even in the place ame where I can use wireless with Mandriva
[02:35] <gyaresu> joh6nn: cool.
[02:35] <robdig> allobjects: probably because the directory is not on  you path. type ./force-wireless
[02:35] <th0r> fallore install fusesmb from synaptic. It is real easy to use....type 'man fusesmb' after install and it will explain what to do
[02:36] <s_spiff> bgt421, umm, nm-applet mean its a applet, a part of the panel if I'm not mistaken. As for the --sm-disable, I guess just some parameters. Someone with more experience may be able to help you out with that
[02:36] <proq> allobjects: what error do you get when you try?
[02:36] <aszwet1> hello i'm trying to install mod_scgi modules for apache2 is there anyone who know how this is done?
[02:36] <allobjects> robdig: ahh, that worked thanks
[02:36] <th0r> fallore it will put your workgroups in a folder of your choice..the shared folders on the network should just be part of your folder
[02:36] <Ward1983> anakrakatoa, i mostly use the GUI to look and connect to router/access points
[02:36] <joh6nn> gyaresu: i'm not sure that i'm getting the results i should be, though
[02:36] <robdig> allobjects: cool, good luck :)

[02:37] <IdleOne> unagi: batteries?
[02:37] <nickrud> Kuropon: was away, yes:    sudo nano /etc/X11/xorg . But doing this edit won't do you any good if you haven't completed the driver compile and install
[02:37] <unagi> would it still be batteries if the led still comes on
[02:37] <allobjects> robdig: Can I also just plonk that into init.d folder and get it to run duing startup ?
[02:37] <th0r> fallore just a sec

[02:38] <Ward1983> anakrakatoa, you should try the GUI (just click the wireless icon in the right top corner of the screen)
[02:38] <IdleOne> unagi: dont think so
[02:38] <joh6nn> some of the repository requests seem to be actually headed through icarus, but most of them seem to still be direct to the outside

[02:39] <s_spiff> aram, by just drag it around to different corners
[02:39] <Ward1983> first hold your finger in front of the sensor

[02:39] <th0r> fallore it is there...but now that I think about it I downloaded the source and compiled it as there was a problem, but I don't recall if the problem was in ubuntu (my server) or suse (my laptop)
[02:39] <gyaresu> joh6nn: Sorry. I'm not familiar enough to suggest other than hashing out the outside references. (Or just create a new apt.conf and backup the working one.
[02:39] <robdig> allobjects: not sure if there or in one of the /etc/rc* directories. perhaps someone else here would know better
[02:39] <th0r> fallore I can pastebin my sources.list if you like.
[02:39] <Ward1983> anakrakatoa, thats weird since it works in another distro :s
[02:39] <aram> nickrud: thanks but it doesnt work for me
[02:40] <joh6nn> gyaresu: all right, well i'm farther than i was before, so thanks.  ; )
[02:40] <aram> any help please
[02:40] <Ward1983> unagi, try "pairing" the receiver and the mouse again
[02:40] <nickrud> aram: this is the gnome taskbar, right? or just the window list.
[02:40] <unagi> i did
[02:40] <s_spiff> aram, right click, and remove the check mark from 'Lock...'
[02:40] <unagi> 15 times
[02:40] <aram> nickrud: yes
[02:41] <anakrakatoa> Ward1983:it seems that it never found new signals automatically or manually on ubuntu
[02:41] <aram> s_spiff: thanks i have done that also
[02:41] <Ward1983> unagi, then you should try another  USB port, and / or other computer
[02:41] <anakrakatoa> I don't know what's going on
[02:41] <nickrud> aram: yes could be either :) if it's just the window list, do waht s_spiff said, then drag
[02:41] <unagi> ok what about my external drive problem
[02:41] <nickrud> aram: you have to grab the little bar to the right
[02:41] <s_spiff> nickrud, hehe. Seems he's tried that too :(

[02:42] <aram> thanks a lot i could do it

[02:43] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about stabintheeye - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[02:43] <anakrakatoa> Ward1983:It's weird enough,I have never had it worked in ubuntu,ever.....
[02:43] <unagi> !nickspam
[02:43] <ubotu> You should avoid changing your nick in a busy channel like #ubuntu - it causes unrequired scrolling which is unfair on new users. The same goes for using noisy away messages : use the command "/away <reason>" to set your client away silently - See also !Guidelines
[02:43] <Ward1983> unagi, you should be more patient, maybe you didn't notice but my question is repeated once, and i'm here like half an hour
[02:43]  * nickrud is glad he wears glasses
[02:43] <bgt421> s_spiff: it's still gone. I only have one panel, the top one. It's not trying to load in the "second" panel that's not there, or anything is it?
[02:43] <anakrakatoa> Ward1983:thank u,though

[02:43] <Ward1983> unagi, i saw you repeat your questions like 5 times in 2 minutes
[02:44] <gyaresu> unagi: Ward1983 And I've tried to help...
[02:44] <aram> s_spiff: thanks again and also i appreciate nickrud helep by
[02:44] <aram> bye
[02:44] <s_spiff> bgt421, nopes. If you haven't modified your theme or panels... it should have loaded in the top panel at the right, the little two screens icon
[02:44] <unagi> ok im not sure why people are getting hostile
[02:44] <gyaresu> unagi: Ah ^^ ntfs. Right. (preface with the nick of the person, helps to see)

[02:44] <IdleOne> everybody relax!
[02:44] <Ward1983> anakrakatoa, just ask every half hour or so, someone can probably help you
[02:44] <unagi> i have ntfs-3g, it is installed, and works gyaresu
[02:45] <s_spiff> unagi, just install ntfs-3g fromt eh apt's along with ntfs-config
[02:45] <bgt421> s_spiff: I was playing with those earlier :(...
[02:45] <anakrakatoa> Ward1983:I will,thanks!
[02:45] <gyaresu> unagi: Ok so you need it to auto mount with persisten naming. That can be a little flaky from my experience but I'll find a link.
[02:45] <s_spiff> bgt421, haha. The it must have already loaded. Ok do one thing. Just right click on any panel of your choice, and click on Add to Panel
[02:46]  * IdleOne takes knife out of nickrud's eye and places it firly in his chest. that's how it is done gyaresu
[02:46] <Ward1983> unagi, not hostile at all, jsut good avice
[02:46] <IdleOne> firmly*
[02:46] <nickrud> gah
[02:46] <Ward1983> anakrakatoa, no problem (whats kindof wifi card do you have btw?)
[02:46] <s_spiff> bgt421, then select Network Manager applet from the list. You'll have it in your panel. Then just move the network manager applet to the corner of your taskbar, or wherever you wish.
[02:46] <bgt421> s_spiff: all that's there is "Network Monitor". It doesn't seem to have the same interface.
[02:46] <anakrakatoa> Ward1983:it is rtl8187b
[02:47] <s_spiff> bgt421, do you want the interface where you can modify your ip add and such stuff?
[02:47] <Ward1983> anakrakatoa, here you go :-) http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=604784
[02:47] <bgt421> s_spiff: Yeah, more specifically see and select nearby wireless access points
[02:47] <Ward1983> anakrakatoa, google is your friend :p
[02:47] <WooD> Ok I partitionned my hdd to ext3 with gparted. What do i need to do next ?
[02:48] <allobjects> If I have a shell script that I want to run automatically at boot, what do I need to do ?
[02:48] <gyaresu> unagi: http://www.debuntu.org/device-partition-labeling
[02:48] <s_spiff> bgt421, umm... Go to System > Administration > Network that should help you out. Unfortunately, I've never configured for wi-fi points :(
[02:48] <s_spiff> google!
[02:49] <pfarshim> is registartion necessary to chat here?

[02:49] <kerbtray> hello peeps, i have the following problem : whenever i open a shoutcast link (*.pls) mplayer opens. I have set the coorect assosiations with *.pls. I have cleared the shoutcast support in the mplayer configurations any 1 ideas ?
[02:49] <Ward1983> anakrakatoa, then it still won't work perfectly but it sohuld be able to connect to networks
[02:49] <IdleOne> pfarshim: no but to send private messages yes
[02:50] <pfarshim> IdleOne: I just messaged you
[02:50] <IdleOne> no you didnt
[02:50] <unagi> im not sure i follow what youre saying about lables gyaresu, i just want the drive to mount when i plug it in
[02:50] <pfarshim> IdleOne: how can I check if I am regsitered?
[02:50] <Starnestommy> pfarshim, /msg nickserv help register

[02:51] <ari_stress> how do i set my ubuntu to logon to samba domain?
[02:51] <gyaresu> unagi: And unless you have an entry in fstab it will probably mount it with the native ntfs driver which can't do 'write'
[02:51] <bgt421>  s_spiff: it doesn't have that. It's enabled by default on the live CD, nm-applet. is there a way to reset Gnome to the factory defaults(without deleting my user and starting over)>
[02:51] <allobjects> What chmod do I need to do to a shell script to allow it to be executed as a service in /etc/init.d ?
[02:51] <unagi> /dev/sdb1 /media/External ntfs-3g defaults,auto 0 0
[02:51] <th0r> ari_stress I use fusesmb to access the workgroups
[02:51] <Starnestommy> allobjects, sudo chmod +x filename
[02:52] <ari_stress> th0r: do we still need to logon?
[02:52] <s_spiff> bgt421, umm, I don't think so. I'll look around and get back to you. Till then either ask around here again, or post your issue in the Forums.
[02:52] <hack184> I keep getting a message saying Could not download all repository indexes how do i fix it
[02:52] <allobjects> Starnestommy: that add execute, but what about user and group ?

[02:52] <mular> hey guys trying to run a script when I suspend to kill the mixer_app2 then unload my soundcard.. so I loaded up a script with the help of the net in /etc/acpi/suspend.d and resume.d - I set them both to chmod +x - they don't seem to activate any ideas?
[02:52] <XinFei> whats the thing u type in terminal to shut down all firefox programs.. it its already running but i closed it like 5min ago
[02:52] <nickrud> hack184: could you run    sudo apt-get update   in a terminal, and put the results on http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org
[02:52] <th0r> ari_stress I don't....fusesmb runs at login and my workgroup shows up in a folder in my home directory. Don't recall exactly how I set it up, but it wasn't hard
[02:52] <Starnestommy> allobjects, I think +x adds it for everyone
[02:53] <bgt421> s_spiff: cool, thanks. I think I'll ask this in the forums. Thanks for all the help!
[02:53] <th0r> ari_stress there are howtos on the web for it
[02:53] <Starnestommy> allobjects, if not, chmod o+x filename
[02:53] <Starnestommy> *a+x
[02:53] <gyaresu> unagi: and can you 'mount /dev/sdb1' from the command line?
[02:53] <unagi> yes
[02:53] <th0r> ari_stress the other option is to use smbmount....there is a man page for that
[02:53] <aram> what is the command in terminal to open shared file from windows
[02:53] <IdleOne> hack184: edit your /etc/apt/sources.list and remove all the country codes from the repos url's so if in US remove the us.
[02:53] <th0r> aram smbmount
[02:54] <gyaresu> unagi: ok. wait one.
[02:54] <unagi> gyaresu ok
[02:54] <nickrud> th0r: do you have a pointer to a quick howto on that workgroup in home with fusesmb
[02:54] <IdleOne> hack184: remember to save the file then run sudo apt-get update
[02:54] <aram> th0r: could you give me example
[02:54] <pfarshim> IdleOne: so it worked?
[02:54] <th0r> aram in a terminal type 'man smbmount'
[02:54] <IdleOne> yes pfarshim it did. it is polite to ask permission before messagin someone :)
[02:54] <nickrud> th0r: never mind, I read down a bit
[02:54] <matkix> How do I set my ip address, default gateway for an interface? ifconfig eth0 ??????
[02:54] <th0r> nickrud let me check...give me a sec
[02:54] <pfarshim> IdleOne: ok sorry
[02:54] <anakrakatoa> Word1983:I just got a driver for rtl8187b from your link,and I'm trying it out,thank u again
[02:55] <mular> when I suspend I lose sound.. if I do killall mixer_app2 then do modprobe -r snd_ca0106 then reenable it.. sound works again - I want to make this happen auto when I go to suspend?
[02:55] <IdleOne> pfarshim: no problem. glad you got it worked out
[02:55] <th0r> nickrud I ran into a problem with fusesmb in either suse or ubuntu (I run both on different computers). So I compiled the source and installed from there...don't recall if the issue was in ubuntu or suse
[02:55] <aram> th0r: could you please give me an example of  it
[02:56] <s_spiff> matkix, just go to System > Admin > Network and select whatever connection type you want to configure
[02:56] <musikgoat> anyone else having problems loading www.ubuntu.com ?
[02:56] <nickrud> th0r: ok, thanks for the warning. I've known of fuse, but hadn't used it until I tried out sshfs. Now I need to know all :)
[02:56] <gyaresu> unagi: Does this help: http://www.ubuntugeek.com/widows-ntfs-partitions-readwrite-support-made-easy-in-ubuntu-feisty.html
[02:56] <zero88> can a nmap scan from a wired host see a wireless host?
[02:56] <th0r> aram give me a sec
[02:56] <aram> th0r: ok
[02:56] <Starnestommy> zero88, I think so
[02:56] <icewolf> Hi all, from Buenos Aires, the ubuntu apt repositories are offline?
[02:57] <zero88> starnestommy ok
[02:57] <biouser> I need a work-around for using Mackichan's "Scientific Notebook" (http://www.mackichan.com/) and the associated files in Ubuntu.  Any ideas?
[02:57] <matkix> s_spiff, I can't... It won't let me... When I change the settings they don't apply to my eth 0 adapter.
[02:57] <biouser> a viewer would be a good place to start.
[02:57] <IdleOne> icewolf: possibly
[02:57] <gyaresu> zero88: Yes. If you're connected to the same network.
[02:57] <zero88> gyaresu oh ok thanks
[02:57] <biouser> I am thinking about trying to tackle Lyx, but I'm not sure if it can open/produce the file-types
[02:58] <gyaresu> zero88: Are you just trying to see open ports?
[02:58] <IdleOne> musikgoat: loads fine here
[02:58] <musikgoat> can anyone point me to the x64 alt install torrent file?
[02:58] <glick> hwy how can i get flash working in 7.10 is it still broken?
[02:58] <th0r> aram it is included in the smbfs package, and I don't have that installed.
[02:58] <musikgoat> thanks IdleOne, i don't know whats up, all other pages load fine
[02:58] <zero88> gyaresu yes, and i cant seem to see my wireless comp for some reason
[02:58] <gyaresu> zero88: 'nc -zv hostname 1-1024' Is more efficent.
[02:58] <glick> i installed flash from synaptic but it doesnt work
[02:58] <matkix> How do I set my ip address, default gateway for an interface? ifconfig eth0 ??????
[02:58] <s_spiff> matkix, umm, well then i think ifconfig is the way to go. but do ask around again. Maybe someone must have had the same issue
[02:58] <zero88> gyaresu nc is better then nmap?
[02:58] <biouser> glick, you need to install the tarball from adobe
[02:59] <glick> bummer
[02:59] <th0r> aram http://linux.die.net/man/8/smbmount
[02:59] <glick> ok
[02:59] <biouser> glick, it's not a big deal
[02:59] <gyaresu> matkix: 'ifconfig eth0 <IP_ADDRESS> gw <IP_ADDRESS>'
[02:59] <aram> th0r: ok i mean like if i type smb mount then what is the example of it would be like smbmount \\<IP_ADDRESS>\share name?
[02:59] <biouser> glick, let me know if you have trouble
[02:59] <nickrud> biouser: you might try installing it in wine
[02:59] <matkix> gy
[02:59] <gyaresu> matkix: 'sudo route add default <IP_ADDRESS>'
[02:59] <glick> ok thanks Biohazard
[02:59] <glick> biouser,
[02:59] <matkix> gyaresu, How do I set up the netmask?
[02:59] <gyaresu> zero88: netcat is a very very useful program.
[02:59] <IdleOne> musikgoat: what country?
[02:59] <biouser> nickrud, that's what I was thinking
[02:59] <icewolf> someone knows why the apt servers are offline?
[02:59] <musikgoat> IdleOne: US please
[02:59] <shadix> are they?
[02:59] <hack184> what do you mean by repos
[03:00] <Starnestommy> the us one seems to be on
[03:00] <th0r> aram look at the link. You will need the ip of the service, the name of the service, the user and password if necessary, the moujntpoint for the service in the local computer and other options
[03:00] <zero88> gyaresu yes ive heard. but this is the first someone has recommended it over nmap
[03:00] <Starnestommy> hack184, package repositories?
[03:00] <biouser> glick, http://www.adobe.com/shockwave/download/download.cgi?P1_Prod_Version=ShockwaveFlash
[03:00] <gyaresu> matkix: 'man ifconfig' you'll see that it's 'netmask whatever' on the same line.
[03:00] <aram> th0r: thanks a lot
[03:00] <icewolf> the repos to download pacakges via apt
[03:00] <icewolf> are absolutely offline
[03:00] <icewolf> five hours ago almost
[03:00] <IdleOne> musikgoat: http://mirrors.easynews.com/linux/ubuntu-releases/gutsy/ubuntu-7.10-alternate-amd64.iso there ya go
[03:00] <bazhang> icewolf: what country
[03:00] <shadix> icewolf: i just did apt-get update and it worked fine
[03:00] <gyaresu> zero88: Nmap is overkill just to find out if port 22 is open for example. 'nc -zv hostname 80'
[03:00] <musikgoat> thanks IdleOne you rock
[03:00] <gyaresu> zero88: Nmap is overkill just to find out if port 22 is open for example. 'nc -zv hostname 22'
[03:00] <biouser> glick, pretty painless
[03:00] <IdleOne> musikgoat: np
[03:01] <icewolf> argentina, but i change the repos to main servers and doesnt work i didnt touch the sources.list
[03:01] <biouser> glick, $tar xvf "thename.tar.gz"
[03:01] <bazhang> icewolf: you might try !easysource to change for a bit
[03:01] <zero88> gyaresu i c, i think i will try using nc again
[03:01] <anthis> im trying to setup my wireless on my laptop running ubuntu... anyone mind helping?
[03:02] <unagi> gyaresu no not really, because my external doesnt show up in the config
[03:02] <matkix> gyaresu, I get gw unknown host
[03:02] <icewolf> ok i will try
[03:02] <icewolf> thnx
[03:02] <Jack_Sparrow> icewolf: repos work for me here
[03:02] <gyaresu> zero88: It's particulary better not just at one port but when you're doing a lot. Try it from port range 1-50000 for example.
[03:02] <Starnestommy> same here
[03:02] <bazhang> icewolf: you know the link?
[03:02] <Jack_Sparrow> icewolf: Pastebin your sources.list...
[03:02] <glick> biouser, its asking for the instalation path of firefox
[03:02] <icewolf> yes, i know how to, I am just asking if its about a felt down of the servers
[03:03] <icewolf> no i dont have the easysource address
[03:03] <zero88> gyaresu im assuming its alot faster then nmao
[03:03] <gyaresu> matkix: my bad. gw is from the 'route command'.
[03:03] <tussey> not syncing VFS unable to mount root fs
[03:03] <Jack_Sparrow> !easysource
