[03:11] <filthpig> so it seems there is no support for ATi Mobility radeon older than 9500 in hardy? Is there some way to enable the drivers from gutsy?
[03:12] <tech0007> shamus: you have to be member of vboxuser group
[03:12] <danbhfive> shamus: I believe its actually a user group, hence the command to add your user to the vboxusers
[03:12] <askvictor> is there an panel applet which will show the status of caps/numlock? My keyboard doesn't have the lights...

[03:17] <LuluFiasco> Hihi. :) So, I think my computer is dying (it's roughly 5-6 years old) but I want to give it one last go before I pack it in and get a new one. Window's won't boot anymore, so I used Slax Live CD to check that all my data was still on the HDD. Turns out it is (Yay!) but now I need to get it off as trying to repair Windows isn't working (Pfft..). So I tried to transfer everything across to my 250GB FreeAgent drive. Slax wouldn't let

[03:18] <tech0007> illa:  /dev/sd1 /media/disk2 ext3 rw,user,auto 0 0
[03:18] <SebNaitsabes> LuluFiasco: and your new to Linux?

[03:19] <SebNaitsabes> LuluFisco:  starting with Slackware when new to Linux oh my or Slackware based
[03:19] <askvictor> illa: yep
[03:19] <laco> LuluFiasco: why it does not allow you to do it ?
[03:19] <SebNaitsabes> LuluFisco:  ok so WIndows won't boot more details please
[03:19] <LuluFiasco> I would, however, like to have them both on my HDD and be able to switch to either one.

[03:19] <illa> let me shutdown now -r
[03:19] <laco> LuluFiasco: if you can see them, you should be able to copy them
[03:19] <LuluFiasco> My computer gets past the bios loading screen then goes to a black screen.
[03:20] <Tommy_Mango> it will funny to see

[03:20] <LuluFiasco> I can see my data on my internal HDD.
[03:20] <filthpig> fsckd, I might have to do a fresh install. I upgraded from gutsy today and 3d acc went out the window
[03:20] <LuluFiasco> tech0007: I'm using Ubuntu at the moment.
[03:20] <SebNaitsabes> LuluFisco:  heh still wanting Linux, but had the balls to try a Slackware based Live CD.   Slackware and slackware based is for  intermediate to advanced Linux users
[03:20] <marc_> :o
[03:20] <fsckd> hope you guys have some luck getting things working
[03:20] <SebNaitsabes> and that was meant to have been heh wanting Windows
[03:20] <LuluFiasco> :) To talk to you via Pinguin or something.
[03:21] <Tommy_Mango> anyone here have bush?
[03:21] <marc_> i trying to instal a eggdrop and i need stuff to make its compile ect..
[03:21] <LuluFiasco> Oh, rofl. @ SebNaitsabes
[03:21] <LuluFiasco> I figured because it was small it'd be sweet..
 yea I have never had much luck with the upgrades
[03:21] <SebNaitsabes> LuluFiasco:  I would have thought most people running Slackware or Slackware based would love to get rid of Windows,  this is going off topic though
[03:21] <laco> SebNaitsabes: my first linux distro was slack and it was fun :)
[03:21] <bloodrock> marc_ just roll an egg off the table
[03:21] <bloodrock> j/k
[03:21] <tech0007> laco: never had luck w/ slax...too geeky for me rotf
[03:21]  * SebNaitsabes WIndows won't boot.  a virus?  probably  or something like that caused that
[03:22] <marc_> :o
[03:22] <connor> hymm
[03:22] <askvictor> laco: those were the days...
[03:22] <connor> hmm
[03:22] <sensae> I'm trying to use VMware and it's asking me for a file that exists, and when I point it to the file it asks for it recursively. I know this probably isn't quite the place to ask, but hey, it's on ubuntu
[03:22] <connor> sebnaitsabes: did you use wubi?
[03:22]  * SebNaitsabes and by the sounds of it, it's not hardware since  the data can be accessed on a Live CD
[03:22] <connor> sensae: use virtualbox
 I just add an extra partition for /home so i can keep my configs in a safe place
[03:22] <marc_> bloodboy,  but can u pv me i cant see
[03:22] <enterneo> on hardy, totem randomly restarts X when starting to play a video file, I have YouTube plugin enabled and the last restart was when I was trying to watch a YouTube video, is there a unresolved bug there?
[03:22] <sensae> connor: Can Virtualbox open .vmx files?
[03:22] <bloodrock> marc_ so your trying to compile a source file?
[03:22] <laco> askvictor: im not so old :) it was only 4 years ago :)
[03:22] <connor> sensae: virtualbox is much better than vmware, and stuff runs better on it
[03:22] <connor> i dont know
[03:22] <connor> i use ubuntu
[03:22] <connor> i actually used wubi
[03:22] <SebNaitsabes> concor:  Wubi no and the Debian one,  no ,but years ago I tryed something similar for some other distro,  didn't get that far with that though, but I was LInux noob then
[03:23] <Sully7> fsckd and filthpig, I restarted my computer and tried the music players, but they didn't work.  In fact, nothing puts sound through my speakers now.  I think that is because I downloaded some PulseAudio plugins, which also added PulseAudio to the list of sound cards available in "asound-gtk".
[03:23] <theRealBallchalk> how to turn off gdm?
[03:23] <connor> i used virtualbox and it worked great
[03:23] <sensae> Well I have a special set up
[03:23] <connor> therealballchalk: go to the terminal and type killall gdm
[03:23] <connor> try that
[03:23] <SebNaitsabes> LuluFiasco:  ah ha I got an idea for you,  that might fix Windows, well two in fact
[03:23] <sensae> I have Windows XP on another partition and I'm trying to boot it as a VM
[03:23] <Jack_Sparrow> !enter | connor
[03:23] <connor> no
[03:23] <LuluFiasco> Hmm. I think, what I need, is for Ubuntu to mount my ext HDD so I can transfer the data across to it then format my internal HDD.
[03:23] <LuluFiasco> Oh?
[03:23] <tech0007> theRealBallchalk: go to one of the 7 VT's then do sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop
[03:23] <askvictor> laco: sorry; still equate slackware with the dawn of the linux era, I forget ppl still use it :)
[03:23] <theRealBallchalk> tech0007 i mean at boot up
[03:24] <SebNaitsabes> LuluFiasco: well if you got a Windows CD the obvious thing is to try that and see if that will fix your boot
[03:24] <Jack_Sparrow> connor Who are you saying no to
[03:24] <theRealBallchalk> i think X windows in itself is lame
[03:24] <theRealBallchalk> CLI is gonna conquer the world
[03:24] <DIL> sensae: you would have to image it and restore into vm
[03:24] <allinurl> Hello, I was trying to open remote files on Hardy, if I open nautilus and then I type<EMAIL_ADDRESS>and click enter then I got a window asking for the password and then I can connect, BUT if I do it for instance on gedit, click open, then I type the same ftp url, I got Could not find the file /home/user/ftp:/myserver.com.. Does anyone knows why this is happening?
[03:24] <kahrytan> Anyone know what lib is glbc?
[03:24] <kahrytan> Anyone know what lib is glibc?
[03:24] <Zikiti> Anyone???
[03:24] <connor> jack_sparrow: i was saying no to ubottu
[03:24] <Zikiti> Zend Ide?
[03:25] <laco> askvictor: it is not so bad if it does what you need, but when you need to change lot of stuff, not good :), it was the most stable thing i had
[03:25] <tech0007> theRealBallchalk: you have to turn it off in all init levels
[03:25] <LuluFiasco> SebNaitsabes: Yeah, I tried that and it goes through the whole "Windows is repairing blah blah.." but then, when it restarts it doesn't go to the normal Windows setup screen again. =\
[03:25] <askvictor> sensae: I don't think that will work; windows doesn't like being moved like that (could be wrong tho...)
[03:25] <Sully7> fsckd and filthpig, are you still there?
[03:25] <enterneo> on hardy, totem randomly restarts X when starting to play a video file, I have YouTube plugin enabled and the last restart was when I was trying to watch a YouTube video, is there a unresolved bug there?
[03:25] <Tommy_Mango> hoennshipping is the couple brendan and may
[03:25] <theRealBallchalk> tech0007 how?
[03:25] <filthpig> fsckd, the configs are of no importance to me, and this is my mom's laptop.  Oh well, I'll see if I can find some empty cd-r tomorrow anddo a fresh install.
[03:25] <kahrytan> Anyone know what lib is glibc?
[03:25] <LuluFiasco> It just goes back to black.
[03:25] <sensae> DIL: I'm not sure I follow, but I don't want it to be an image. I want a native-bootable -and- VM-bootable partition
[03:25] <marc_> checking for gcc... gcc
[03:25] <marc_> checking for C compiler default output file name... configure: error: C compiler cannot create executables
[03:25] <marc_> See `config.log' for more details.
[03:25] <SebNaitsabes> LuluFiasco: I haven't used the Ultimate Boot  CD yet  which is a Linux one or the Windows one, but  I heard the LInux one is good maybe not so much for what you want, but the Windows one should be good yes
[03:25] <illa> is it listed in one of the logs why drives dont mount on startup?
[03:25] <filthpig> Sully7, yea, bu it' 4.25 am right now, so I have to sleep for a while, I guess
[03:25] <sensae> And it's been set up before, I know it will work. You just need to set up different hardware profiles
[03:25] <AlexW> Does anybody know how to get spdif working?
[03:25] <Sully7> ok filthpig
[03:26] <sensae> I'm just having technical problems with VMware
[03:26] <LuluFiasco> Oh, okay. So I should just Google search Ultimate Boot CD and go from there?
[03:26] <SebNaitsabes> well that will get the LInux one yes
[03:26] <SebNaitsabes> as for the Windows one
[03:26] <linuxmonkey> !ot
[03:26] <askvictor> sensae: virtualbox can't open vmx files, but it can use vmdk (vmware disk) images. So you'd need to create a virtual machine in virtualbox and point it's disk to the vmdk from vmware
[03:26] <illa> do you guys use vmware for work or for home?
[03:26] <SebNaitsabes> LuluFiasco:  http://www.ubcd4win.com
[03:26] <Flynsarmy> Hi. I have a folder in my trash. when i click 'Empty Garbage Bin' it doesn't get removed. Any ideas?
[03:26] <SebNaitsabes> http://www.ubcd4win.com/
[03:27] <tech0007> theRealBallchalk: or go to System > Administration > Services.  uncheck GDM
[03:27] <LuluFiasco> Thanks!
[03:27] <illa> is there any performacne issues using vmwae created images with vbox?
[03:27] <astro76> Flynsarmy: 8.04?
[03:27] <Tommy_Mango> sorry that was for m_newton
[03:27] <Flynsarmy> astro76: Yes
[03:27] <kahrytan> Anyone know what lib is glibc? (libgtk1-2)
[03:27] <filthpig> Flynsarmy, put there as sudo and you're trying to remove it as user?
[03:27] <astro76> Flynsarmy: sudo rm -r ~/.local/share/Trash/*
[03:27] <DIL> sensae: you have 2 partitions and you want to boot one of those into vm - you have to create into vm the particular os - if i understyood you correcetll
[03:27] <theRealBallchalk> tech0007 thanks for ur help. i was actually looking for the file responsible for starting gdm
[03:28] <SebNaitsabes> LuluFiasco: as for backing up moving your files over from Ubuntu. well
[03:28] <sensae> askvictor: Alright. Sounds like it should work then.
[03:28] <SebNaitsabes> LuluFiasco: various ways that can be done
[03:28] <SebNaitsabes> LuluFiasco:  and I meant from Windows
[03:28] <Tommy_Mango> rhilton: some google developers use it, but not all, and it's not anything official.
[03:28] <Flynsarmy> astro76: filthpig: That got it, thanks
[03:28] <sensae> askvictor: The vmdk is the important file. It points to /dev/sda, lol
[03:28] <askvictor> illa: doubt it, ultimately they're little more than a big file that pretends to be a disk. If you get into snapshots there might be problems...
[03:29] <SebNaitsabes> illa:  yes  I got VMware player and Virtualbox here in Ubuntuy
[03:29] <tech0007> vbox is faster than vmware on my machine
[03:29] <SebNaitsabes> !virtualbox
[03:29] <Tommy_Mango> while copying and pasting
[03:29] <SebNaitsabes> !vmware
[03:30]  * SebNaitsabes and ubotu is a bit out of date with those two
[03:30] <SebNaitsabes> !me it seems
[03:32] <tech0007> theRealBallchalk: did you find what ur lookin for?
[03:32] <theRealBallchalk> tech0007 not at this time i'm doing something else
[03:32] <theRealBallchalk> will later tho
[03:33] <tech0007> theRealBallchalk: could it be sudo update-rc.d -f gdm remove
[03:34] <prolefeed> how the heck do i store passwords in seahorse, i can only create new keys
[03:35] <blackvd> if I want tilda to delay loading at start by 20 seconds or so ..what so I add after the command tilda in sessions to achieve that? Thanks!
[03:35] <sensae> Alright well, different problem.
[03:35] <blackvd> *do
[03:35] <sensae> My Desktop folder is mounted over NFS - I had network issues nad it didn't get mounted, so KDE defaulted to my home being displayed on my desktop
[03:36] <sensae> Now it's mounted again, and I have a Desktop folder on my Desktop. How can I change it back?
[03:36] <astro76> blackvd: sleep 20 && tilda
[03:36] <blackvd> ah I was doing the reverse

[03:47] <KalThaeden[EK]> A question, is Wubi really worth using?
[03:47] <Jack_Sparrow> KalThaeden[EK] I wont use or recommend it
[03:48] <KalThaeden[EK]> I dont have a cd to burn an iso to right now, is there any way of booting ubuntu without?
[03:48] <jimisrvrox> trying to install xubuntu and am getting an error Warning: Failure trying to run: chroot /target dpkg --force-- depends--install var/cache/apt/archives/libc6_2.7-10ubuntu3_i386.deb
[03:48] <Tommy_Mango> garchomp the best]
[03:48] <Jack_Sparrow> !install
[03:48] <SebNaitsabes> I think you need a CD
[03:48] <SebNaitsabes> to do the partion way
[03:49] <SebNaitsabes> in the mean time could try Wubi
[03:49] <SebNaitsabes> or
[03:49] <FloodBot1> SebNaitsabes: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[03:49] <Tommy_Mango> ma3x: "sync" isn't the default.
[03:49] <Jack_Sparrow> !enter | SebNaitsabes
[03:49] <SebNaitsabes> just run Ubuntu inside WIndows a virtual machine in the mean time
[03:49] <Jack_Sparrow> KalThaeden[EK] Look also at pendrivelinux.com
[03:50] <Jack_Sparrow> !usb
[03:50] <KalThaeden[EK]> nah, i want to use ubuntu. everything else i use has problems.
[03:50] <SebNaitsabes> well then sort your self out a CD
[03:51] <SebNaitsabes> in themean time though
[03:51] <KalThaeden[EK]> how long does it take canocial to send a cd. i saw that you could get a free cd?
[03:51] <SebNaitsabes> !usb
[03:51] <SebNaitsabes> 10 weeks or something depends
[03:51] <SebNaitsabes> just download one your self?
[03:51] <KalThaeden[EK]> I have one already.
[03:51] <KalThaeden[EK]> in an ISO file
[03:51] <SebNaitsabes> install from the Ubuntu CD that you have?
[03:51] <SebNaitsabes> burn the contents of the ISO to a CD?
[03:52] <enterneo> on hardy, totem randomly restarts X when starting to play a video file, I have YouTube plugin enabled and the last restart was when I was trying to watch a YouTube video, is there a unresolved bug there?
[03:52] <KalThaeden[EK]> I dont have a cd.
[03:52] <SebNaitsabes> get your self a CD
[03:52] <Tommy_Mango> talking animal movie.
[03:52] <SebNaitsabes> or DVD  a bit of a waste for an Ubuntu though
[03:52] <KalThaeden[EK]> cant when all the stores are closed around here.
[03:52] <SebNaitsabes> true
[03:52] <KalThaeden[EK]> got to wait...
[03:52] <SebNaitsabes> so in the mean time
[03:52] <SebNaitsabes> there are things you can do to run Ubuntu
[03:52] <KRaZy_WaKa> it's quicker to get a blank CD 2moro than order one from canonical
[03:52] <SebNaitsabes> as a temporty thing untill you got a CD  sorted out
[03:53] <SebNaitsabes> then you can put on your computer for real
[03:53] <SebNaitsabes> Wubi is one way
[03:53] <KalThaeden[EK]> ok, what?
[03:53] <SebNaitsabes> another way is

[03:53] <Jack_Sparrow> !enter | SebNaitsabes
[03:53] <KalThaeden[EK]> LOl.
[03:53] <SebNaitsabes> or virtualmachine

[03:54] <enterneo> does anyone use samba on hardy heron?
[03:54] <KalThaeden[EK]> QEMU doesn't seem to work right in Windows Vista Ultimate.
[03:54] <SebNaitsabes> yes I have used Samba
[03:54] <KalThaeden[EK]> i hate that system
[03:54] <SebNaitsabes> not in hardy I don't think yet, but that's irelivant since  I used in Gutsy and so on
[03:54] <Tommy_Mango> song
[03:55] <SebNaitsabes> ah yes qemu
[03:55] <SebNaitsabes> there is that, but
[03:55] <KRaZy_WaKa> sop long for now all, shall return later, enjoy your day
[03:55] <SebNaitsabes> I would recommend virtualbox :)  or maybe even VMware player
[03:55] <enterneo> SebNaitsabes: I used it in Gutsy too, but since the time i have upgraded, my vista shares are not visible on nautilus
[03:55] <eaglestar83> is there a way to anonymous your ip so you don't have to use tor for applications or is tor the only way?
[03:56] <rathel> How do I set VLC to be the default player that pops up when a DVD is inserted instead of Totem? I tried changing Desktop > Volume Manager > autoplay_dvd_command; But that seemed to have no affect.
[03:56] <SebNaitsabes> rathel: easy
[03:56] <bri-h> eaglestar83: what exactly do you want to do?
[03:56] <SebNaitsabes> rathel:  right click on the DVD in the GUI and  open with and put VLC
[03:56] <rathel> In the Gconf-Editor I should add, sorry.
[03:56] <shamus> I need to stream videos, music and pictures to a PS3, does anyone know of a good program to do this with?
[03:57] <nezin> AABB
[03:57] <SebNaitsabes> rathel:  I think it works the same way as movies anyway
[03:57] <nezin> A
[03:57] <KalThaeden[EK]> i'm going to wait I guess, the stuff that I have ordered from FrozenTech in the past came really fast.
[03:57] <Nevermind> damn it! how to record sound from meyself?????? without any additional wires and stuff...
[03:57] <SebNaitsabes> !virtualbox
[03:57] <SebNaitsabes> !vmware
[03:57] <rathel> SebNaitsabes, I only get "Movie Player" when I right click on DVD. but it works on Video Files.
[03:57] <SebNaitsabes> maybe the actsaul MPEGS on the DVD it self
[03:58] <SebNaitsabes> you will have to say open with
[03:58] <Tommy_Mango> vermux: both. the editor made the hidden file when it opened the one you were editing. then it stayed when the power went off
[03:58] <sima> HI How do i repair my package base? I get error: subprocess post-removal script returned error exit status 2 (i am trying to remove xorg-driver-fglrx)
[03:58] <eaglestar83> bri-h basically i want all applications that i use to not have the same ip address.  i may be using software that collects my ip address in the future under wine and i don't want it to be given
[03:58] <Tommy_Mango> was
[03:58] <astro76> heh I'm sorry for pressing !enter twice because I had a second thought, I'm also sorry for helping out in here for almost a year, I think I won't waste my time anymore
[03:58]  * KalThaeden[EK] will just wait. Wubi sounds like a really bad idea.
[03:58] <SebNaitsabes> Wubi is alright
[03:58] <SebNaitsabes> try it
[03:58] <KalThaeden[EK]> Thanks for letting me know that it has problems.
[03:58] <eaglestar83> my ip address was banned for some stupid reason also from a website and i need something that keeps my ip add anonymous from now on
[03:58] <enterneo> how can i change my network manager icon?
[03:58] <KalThaeden[EK]> Nah, it doesn't work at all in windows.
[03:59] <illa> thanks for you help guys, i got all my drives mounted now
[04:00] <BZWingZero> Ok, I'm having trouble getting X to start properly on my laptop. I know the graphics card is usable under linux using the free ATi drivers but it isn't working now. It is a clean install of 8.04. Heres the weird part: it works fine on the live disk
[04:00] <illa> one last thing to do though, my usb haddrive mounts at bootup without an entry to /etc/fstab to /medis/disk... but i want it to be /media/FLIX
[04:01] <Jack_Sparrow> illa create the mount point you want and edit your fstab
[04:01] <graft> hi, i can't seem to get any name resolution via firefox (tho other apps seem to do it fine)
[04:01] <formolQC> hello.  is there a way to add a generic kernel to a server?
[04:01] <illa> where does it read a setting to mount as /media/disk though
[04:01] <illa> gotta be somewhere
[04:03] <graft> anyone? why am i suddenly unable to resolve domains in firefox?
[04:03] <graft> if i put in an IP address it works fine
[04:03] <wolf8984> i guess there was no answer on that one
[04:04] <m_newton> Hey! is there a dvdshrink for ubuntu???
[04:04] <bri-h> wolf8984: why were you banned?
[04:06] <Jack_Sparrow> m_newton k9copy
[04:06] <SebNaitsabes> m_newton: maybe, but maybe also DVD shrink will work in Wine
[04:06] <Jack_Sparrow> !appdb
[04:06] <m_newton> thanks mate!
[04:06] <iceolate> hi does anyone know if transmission bit torrent supports multiple tracker urls?
[04:06] <Tommy_Mango> distorted how?
[04:06] <wolf8984> don't want to say
[04:06] <wolf8984> but it wasn't my fault
[04:06] <Tommy_Mango> it is awesome but i still think it isnt as morrowind
[04:07] <m_newton> Jack_Sparrow, is that for kde only, will it run on gnome
[04:07] <Jack_Sparrow> m_newton most apps will run in either, it just pulls in a few extra libs
[04:08] <tmapj> is Starnestommy here?
[04:08] <BZWingZero> Ok, I'm having trouble getting X to start properly on my laptop. I know the graphics card is usable under ubuntu using the free ATi drivers but it isn't working now. It is a clean install of 8.04. Here's the weird part: it works fine on the live disk
[04:08] <SebNaitsabes> you want 3D effects or something?
[04:08] <tjb0607> debian is better than ubuntu
[04:08] <tjb0607> and xubuntu
[04:08] <tmapj> can anyone tell me how to back up from a "my-packages" list?????
[04:08] <SebNaitsabes> and screensavers maybe don't even work  properly or at all?
[04:08] <tjb0607> and kubuntu
[04:08] <SebNaitsabes> there is a program that will get the ATI driver for you
[04:09] <BZWingZero> I'd like graphics in general SebNaitsabes. I only have terminal
[04:09] <Tommy_Mango> lol
[04:09] <bri-h> wolf8984: Was it because someone else was trying to be anonymous?
[04:09] <m_newton> i see
[04:09] <dbmoodb> BZWingZero: really what is this hardy ?
[04:09] <BZWingZero> X is refusing to start at all.
[04:09] <graft> what is this nullmailer-send process?
[04:09] <Tommy_Mango> darkrai is legit though
[04:09] <graft> and why is it always launching child processes?
[04:09] <tmapj> can anyone tell me how to backup from a "my-packages" list?????
[04:09] <Jack_Sparrow> wolf8984  bri-h  Take the offtopic to pm please
[04:09] <Jack_Sparrow> !clone
[04:09] <dbmoodb> yes tmapj open synaptic there is an options under file
[04:09] <dbmoodb> or that
[04:09] <Tommy_Mango> hey jmax
[04:10] <BZWingZero> dbmoodb, Yes, hardy. However I used 7.04 and 7.10 successfully but since I wiped and reinstalled I can't get graphics on either. 7.10 or 8.04
[04:10] <dbmoodb> mmm interesting what graphics device is it ?
[04:11] <BZWingZero> ATi Mobility Radeon 9000 (RV250).
[04:11] <dbmoodb> ok so you install 8.04... and you update and you still can't get gui up
[04:11] <dbmoodb> that is very weird there is now bullet proof x which, despite disliking at first i now sort of like (in some regards)
[04:12] <Jalathan> tmapj, do check the box "Save full system state, not only changes"
[04:12] <BZWingZero> I didn't have an 8.04 disk available. I used a 7.10 disk to install (I had graphics on the live disk) and once I rebooted to the local install I had no graphics at all. I updated to hardy through the terminal alone.
[04:12] <Jalathan> tmapj, when you save the markings
[04:13] <Jack_Sparrow> BZWingZero I could not get my ati mobility working on 8.04 (Well it worked but way too slow)  so I moved it back to 7.10
[04:13] <Tommy_Mango> eevee stop doin things with malice
[04:14] <BZWingZero> Jack_Sparrow, Before I updated to 8.04 I still couldn't get graphics on the local 7.10 install. Just the live 7.10.
[04:14] <Jack_Sparrow> !who | Tommy_Mango
[04:14] <Jack_Sparrow> BZWingZero YOu can copy the livecd xorg to the hd install and fix most of that
[04:14] <desolate> !tab what
[04:15] <Tommy_Mango> timmy wakeboard
[04:15] <Tommy_Mango> timmy wakeboard
[04:15] <Tommy_Mango> timmy wakeboard
[04:15] <dbmoodb> kill him
[04:15] <FloodBot1> Tommy_Mango: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[04:15] <dbmoodb> he did it in debian
[04:15] <BZWingZero> Jack_Sparrow, will the 7.10 live xorg work in the 8.04 install?
[04:15] <dbmoodb> sorry not kill -- kick
[04:15] <Jack_Sparrow> BZWingZero DOubt it.. but I never tried that
[04:15] <desolate> Should i just dive straight into ubuntu and start playing with it, or read up on it first?
[04:16] <BZWingZero> desolate, whichever you prefer.
[04:16] <BZWingZero> Jack_Sparrow, I'll try that and let you know how it works
[04:16] <Jack_Sparrow> dbmoodb handled
[04:17] <Starnestommy> tmapj: I am now
[04:17] <dbmoodb> good work "_"
[04:17] <desolate> Figuring linux out on a scale of 1-10. One being childs play, and ten being quantam physics. :P
[04:17] <Jalathan> desolate, it's up to you, however your initial experience will be more pleasant if you take time to at least learn the basics
[04:17] <tmapj> Starnestommy: whats that command to load from a my-packages list?
[04:18] <dbmoodb> desolate: its easier than windows.
[04:18] <dbmoodb> we get your drivers / other things for you
[04:18] <desolate> so -1
[04:18] <Jalathan> !msg | tmapj
[04:18] <Nostahl> why is cd ripping so slow in ubuntu
[04:18] <Jalathan> tmapj, Synaptic can read from that list, and rebuild your system
[04:19] <desolate> Nostahl its not ubuntu its you! ;)
[04:19] <Starnestommy> tmapj: sudo dpkg --set-selections < my-packages && sudo apt-get dselect-upgrade
[04:19] <Nostahl> desolate there are no speed settings for ripping that i can find anywhere
[04:19] <desolate> Nostahl I couldn't help you im a noob
[04:19] <BZWingZero> desolate, To use linux, you have to realize it is not better or worse than windows or OSX, it is (first and foremost) DIFFRENT.
[04:20] <tmapj> thanks Starnestommy
[04:20] <eraldo> greetings
[04:20] <pros9000> I disagree. It's better.
[04:20] <pros9000> Way better
[04:20] <Jalathan> tmapj, (my response was in reply to the pm)
[04:20] <desolate> BZWingZero, well i've played with it a bit and im just alittle hesitant I don't want to start messing around and make a mess of it
[04:21] <BZWingZero> desolate, try using a live disk for a whole day (use a usb drive for saving) and see how it works.
[04:21] <tmapj> jalathan your reply was of no help, i tried to tell you that i saved my-packages as a text file
[04:21] <Ours> Can Can anyone help me delete a partition via GParted on the LiveCD please?
[04:21] <shamus> how do I open a .msi with wine?
[04:21] <tmapj> but thanks anyway
[04:21] <Jack_Sparrow> desolate It is easy to do a full backup .. just one line in a terminal and you can restore just as easy
[04:21] <Jack_Sparrow> !backup
[04:21] <Ours> shamus if you have WINE installed you should be able to right-click, and open with
[04:21] <Jack_Sparrow> shamus /join #Winehq
[04:22] <Ours> Jack_Sparrow mind giving me a hand please?
[04:22] <Jack_Sparrow> Ours WHat is the prob
[04:22] <desolate> BZWingZero, I do want to add some of the great desktop features i've seen. Like the burning/sparkling, cube, the icons on the bottom like mac, stuff like that.
[04:22] <tmapj> Starnestommy: is there a big difference between ubuntu-generic and ubuntu-rt?
[04:22] <nickrud> desolate don't worry about breaking ubuntu, it's the most common way to learn :) Just keep a separate partition for home, and you're reinstalled in nearly no time
[04:22] <Jack_Sparrow> Ours sudo apt-get install pastebinit  && cp /etc/fstab ~/Desktop/Partition_Layout.txt && sudo fdisk -l >> ~/Desktop/Partition_Layout.txt && lsb_release -a >> ~/Desktop/Partition_Layout.txt && cat /home/$USER/Desktop/Partition_Layout.txt | pastebinit  (Provide Pastebin link in channel)
[04:22] <desolate> Is it all simple downloads or is it something you need to use the terminal to do?
[04:22] <Ours> I'm trying to delete sda3 http://img183.imageshack.us/img183/5903/screenshotcy3.png
[04:23] <pros9000> I'm building a church in my backyard dedicated to ubottu.
[04:23] <Ours> But it's not letting me, even though I'm using GParted on the LiveCD, and I was told it should allow me to :/
[04:23] <Jack_Sparrow> Ours Run that command while I look at the prob
[04:23] <pros9000> All hail ubottu!
[04:23] <SebNaitsabes> !ubottu
[04:23]  * nickrud steals Jack_Sparrow 's textreplace
[04:23] <Jack_Sparrow> Hey Nick
[04:23] <Ours> Will do
[04:23] <BZWingZero> desolate, most of the fancy features are enabled by default on Hardy Heron (current version) if your graphics card is supported.
[04:23] <Starnestommy> tmapj: the -rt kernel is only useful if you do a lot of multimedia stuff, but it only brings small performance benefits, and some programs don't work well on realtime kernels
[04:24] <nickrud> hey jack, a nice one liner there
[04:24] <desolate> BZWingZero, well i have a radeon 1900xtx should I download drivers? If so where?
[04:24] <Jack_Sparrow> Ours If you want to delete 3 you need to del 5 and 6 fiest
[04:24] <tmapj> Starnestommy: thanks
[04:24] <Ours> But it won't let me delete 6 because it has a lock on it :/
[04:24] <Jack_Sparrow> Ours 3 is extended, it is used to hold the logicals so you can excede the 4 primary partition limit
[04:25] <BZWingZero> desolate, I don't know how well the 1900xtx is supported. You would need to research that a little bit. It would likely need a reboot or two (after installation) to get the fancy effects working.
[04:25] <In-Sane``> How do I make sure if my graphic card is enabled or not? I got tired trying to enable desktop effects and I don't seem to be able to run compiz in my laptop. any help please?
[04:25] <Ours> So how would I unlock 6 so I could delete it?
[04:25] <Jack_Sparrow> Ours turn swap off
[04:25] <SebNaitsabes> have you got the driver
[04:25] <SebNaitsabes> installed
[04:25] <nickrud> Ours why do you want to delete 3 anyway, if you look you can see that it's the total size of 5 & 6. It contains 5 & 6
[04:26] <SebNaitsabes> for your graphics card?
[04:26] <Jack_Sparrow> SebNaitsabes                        Please
[04:26] <SebNaitsabes> yes I know sorry
[04:26] <BZWingZero> desolate, you should be able to download them through the restricted drivers manager once you install. Not possible to use from the live disk directly IIRC
[04:26] <Jack_Sparrow> SebNaitsabes I understand it is a hard habit to break.. I should know
[04:28] <__mikem> Hey, i am trying to use fwcutter to get a broad com card to see a wireless network
[04:28] <__mikem> I have all the information in correctly yet the thing just won't connect
[04:28] <Ours> Thank you Jack_Sparrow  that really helpped
[04:28] <__mikem> well?
[04:29] <desolate> BZWingZero, oh i see so heron has most of those features already?
[04:29] <deeperror>   /join #linux
[04:29] <lazyPower> Is there a comprehensive guide someone could point me to on seting up a LAMP server on Feisty Fawn? I'm getting alot of errors while apt-gettiing apache. Its not creating the config files.
[04:30] <In-Sane``> anyone?
[04:30] <BZWingZero> desolate, yep. they just need enabling once the graphics drivers are in place. Hardy does its best to have the drivers ready for you, and if so, the neat graphics will be pre-enabled
[04:31] <MrPockets> sooo
[04:31] <MrPockets> hey
[04:31] <MrPockets> i've got a dual monitor settup
[04:31] <desolate> BZWingZero, had i not had heron and had to go about getting those features what would i do?
[04:31] <MrPockets> is there any way, say I'm watching a movie, to adjust how the picture spans into the other monitor?
[04:31] <MrPockets> so the lines are even?
[04:32] <__mikem> I really don't want to repeat myself, but I kind of REALLY NEED to get this broad com card to work
[04:32] <BZWingZero> First step would be to get 3d support for your graphics card. Second step would be to enable the features.
[04:32] <BZWingZero> However, the first step sometimes is difficult and requires the terminal
[04:32] <lazyPower> terminal > *
[04:32] <lazyPower> Is there a comprehensive guide someone could point me to on seting up a LAMP server on Feisty Fawn? I'm getting alot of errors while apt-gettiing apache. Its not creating the config files.
[04:33] <In-Sane``> BZWingZero: are you talking about my issue or someone else?
[04:33] <desolate> BZWingZero, see the terminal is where I get lost I have no idea how to use the terminal
[04:33] <BZWingZero> In-Sane``, sorry, I was responding to desolate. Forgot to put that.
[04:34] <In-Sane``> BZWingZero: it is ok :)
[04:34] <BZWingZero> desolate, that is why we are around to help. Just come and ask.
[04:34] <tmapj> Starnestommy: you still there?
[04:35] <Starnestommy> tmapj: yes
[04:35] <lazyPower> blef
[04:35] <desolate> BZWingZero, awesome should i ditch windows?
[04:35] <lazyPower> How inconvenient.
[04:35] <tmapj> Starnestommy: is there a major disadvantage to installing ubuntu through wubi?
[04:35] <desolate> BZWingZero, at this point all i need to do is backup my media and im good to go it seems
[04:35] <BZWingZero> desolate, try dual booting until you are comfortable, or use a spare machine.
[04:35] <In-Sane``> lazyPower: i feel ignored too :P
[04:35] <Gun_Smoke> tmapj:  Why must you install that way/
[04:35] <candive> Hello, is there a way to find or reset the Root Password?
[04:35] <lazyPower> In-Sane``: Happens to the best of us :P
[04:36] <Gun_Smoke> candive: Yes.
[04:36] <lazyPower> candive: passwd root ?
[04:36] <Starnestommy> tmapj: you must keep windows installed, and you have to reinstall ubuntu the normal way to use it on a different partition
[04:36] <desolate> BZWingZero, for programs like itunes, mirc, aim, and other games do i need emulators?
[04:36] <askvictor> candive: boot into recovery mode, then type passwd
[04:36] <lazyPower> desolate: look into Banshee and Amarok to replace iTunes
[04:36] <lazyPower> mIRC is replaced by xchat, aim = pidgin
[04:36] <tmapj> Starnestommy:  is there a disk speed disadvantage?
[04:36] <candive> askvictor then?
[04:37] <lazyPower> wine and WineX are great ways to play games
[04:37] <Starnestommy> tmapj: there may be a slight one
[04:37] <asc> I'm using 8.04 on a gateway/router thing, and it is restarting after precisely one hour for no apparent reason. Anybody know why this might be?
[04:37] <askvictor> candive: actually, you shouldn't use a root password; that's what sudo is for
[04:37] <BZWingZero> desolate, I've had good luck using amarok for my ipod's music management. Pidgin (included) is excellent for AIM/MSN/YAHOO replacement and xchat is good for irc
[04:37] <lazyPower> asc: I rooted it :P
[04:37] <tmapj> Starnestommy: like how much? could you give me a ballpark percentage?
[04:37] <desolate> BZWingZero, so i can still talk to people on aim using pidgin, and i can still use an ipod with banshee/amarok
[04:37] <Gun_Smoke> asc: Thing?
[04:37] <asc> Yeah, I checked for rootkits, temperature and memory problems
[04:37] <askvictor> candive: by default you can't 'log in' to a root account, but you can log in as a user, type 'sudo -s' to get a root shell
[04:37] <lazyPower> asc: and nothing? have you checked your logs?
[04:38] <asc> Gun: A computer, such as would be capable of running ubuntu and also acting as a gateway and/or router
[04:38] <candive> I am using Terminal to update clamwin but passwrd is invalid so boot to recovery type passwrd
[04:38] <Gun_Smoke> askvictor: Thats probably what he is after.
[04:38] <asc> lazyPower: "Jun  7 20:24:54 Ashkelon syslogd 1.5.0#1ubuntu1: restart."
[04:38] <BZWingZero> desolate, yes, you can use pidgin for aim (there is even a windows version available). I haven't used banshee but amarok worked fine for me. However it doens't do itune's DRMd files.
[04:38] <lazyPower> Odd
[04:38] <Gun_Smoke> asc: Have you timed it?  Is it on the hour?
[04:38] <tmapj> Starnestommy: ?
[04:38] <lazyPower> asc: check your CRONtab
[04:38] <asc> Yes.
[04:39] <tmapj> Starnestommy: am i bothering you?
[04:39] <lazyPower> mayhaps you have a renegade reboot process in there
[04:39] <candive> Back soon
[04:39] <asc> Wait. It takes one hour, but is not at the hour.
[04:39] <desolate> Oky doke thanks for all the info guys especially you BZWingZero
[04:39] <askvictor> candive: sorry, you don't need to boot into recovery mode; run 'sudo passwd root' from the terminal
[04:39] <BZWingZero> desolate, not a problem.
[04:39] <Gun_Smoke> asc: So 60 min.
[04:39] <Jack_Sparrow> askvictor Really bad idea
[04:39] <Jack_Sparrow> !noroot
[04:39] <lazyPower> Anybody here have any luck setting up a LAMP server on fiesty?
[04:39] <asc> Gun: Yes.
[04:39] <Starnestommy> tmapj: I'm not sure about that percentage.  I was a litle busy helping someone else in another channel
[04:39] <askvictor> candive: but I reckon there'd be a way to do with without setting a root passwd
[04:39] <tmapj> oh ok
[04:39] <BZWingZero> In_Sane, you can check if you've got rendering enabled by typing glxinfo in the terminal
[04:39] <Jack_Sparrow> !sudo
[04:39] <Gun_Smoke> asc: Sounds like a job.
[04:40] <lazyPower> !botsnack
[04:40] <Gun_Smoke> Jack hates root.
[04:40] <Jack_Sparrow> Gun_Smoke It simply is not supported in ubuntu
[04:40] <Aaron2> Anyone up for helping a total noob?
[04:40] <tmapj> Starnestommy: could you please give me that command to back up from my-packages one last time? i promise this will be the last time i ask you. im sorry to harass you like this.
[04:40] <asc> Looking.
[04:40] <lazyPower> Aaron2: just ask your questions and we will answer them if we have any
[04:40] <Starnestommy> tmapj: sudo dpkg --set-selections < my-packages && sudo apt-get dselect-upgrade
[04:40] <alan_m> Aaron2, thats what we do best, just ask your question :)
[04:40] <Gun_Smoke> Well I know that, but being that Ubuntu is also Linux, and LINUX supports root.
[04:40] <askvictor> asc: is it _exactly_ one hour?
[04:40] <In-Sane``> BZWingZero: I got this: direct rendering: No (If you want to find out why, try setting LIBGL_DEBUG=verbose)
[04:41] <Jack_Sparrow> !root | Gun_Smoke
[04:41] <Aaron2> I'm having some serious troubles getting the wireless setup on my laptop with Ubuntu
[04:41] <tmapj> thanks a million
[04:41] <Aaron2> I've gone through as many FAQs and guides as I can fine, but I'm just way to green on using Ubuntu to know what I'm doing lol
[04:41] <lazyPower> Aaron2: What card, what version of ubuntu?
[04:41] <Aaron2> or Linux in general
[04:41] <asc> ask: It seems to be. It's happened 4 times.
[04:41] <BZWingZero> In_Sane``, Then you don't have the drivers working properly for the card.
[04:41] <Ours> How do I get rid of an unallocated partition in GParted?
[04:41] <lazyPower> Ours: allocate it?
[04:41] <Aaron2> Broadcom 4318 card, rev 02
[04:41] <Gun_Smoke> Jack_Sparrow: Thanks, I don't need to guess... I won't tell the secret.
[04:41] <nickrud> !noroot
[04:42] <Aaron2> I just downloaded the firmware to see if that helped, but I can't get it to
[04:42] <asc> Actually... wait, I had cron disabled when it started.
[04:42] <Starnestommy> Ours: if something isn't part of a partition, it's unallocated
[04:42] <Jack_Sparrow> !noroot | Gun_Smoke
[04:42] <````bulldogg> Aaraon I am now expert but the way I got it working on my mac is to load the ndiswrapper and use the windows driver
[04:42] <````bulldogg> now=no
[04:42] <Gun_Smoke> Jack_Sparrow: Thanks again..... I won't tell.
[04:42] <Aaron2> Where's the ndiswrapper?
[04:42] <lazyPower> *sigh*
[04:42] <SAGA> hiii
[04:42] <SAGA> room
[04:43] <In-Sane``> BZWingZero: how do i get those drivers working?
[04:43] <askvictor> asc: I'd try getting as much logging happening as possible... are you logging the temperature of the CPU and HDs?
[04:43] <````bulldogg> I knew you were going to ask that hold on a sec and I will see if I can find the post I used aaron
[04:43] <Aaron2> lol okay, thanks Bulldog
[04:43] <SAGA> my amarok is not working
[04:43] <candive> askvictor, password reset thank you very much
[04:43] <SAGA> can u help me?
[04:43] <Leefmc> How do you create a shortcut to a terminal command? I have a rather long command (a compiler, of sorts) that i run often, but its so generic i'd like to simple make a terminal file.. similar to a windows .bat
[04:43] <BZWingZero> In-Sane`` depends on the card.
[04:43] <askvictor> asc: cpu load?
[04:43] <Aaron2> Ubuntu does work with WEP, right? I haven't switched over to WPA and I'm too lazy to do it unless Ubunutu needs it lol
[04:43] <asc> askvictor: I've been watching them. CPU temperature and RAM use is fine. The boot drive's temperature is high, but I'm pretty sure that's a sensor problems. It's never caused and problems before.
[04:43] <lazyPower> Aaron2: yes it works with WEP
[04:44] <candive> askvictor, when I try to use the clamwin gui to update it says i must be root to update app
[04:44] <asc> *problem, any
[04:44] <jscinoz> I'm having a small problem with firefox, whenever it completes a download it crashes, any ideas?
[04:44] <arbir> hello all
[04:44] <arbir> is back
[04:44] <askvictor> asc: or you could try disabling as many services as possible and slowing re-enable them... but it might take a while...
[04:44] <arbir> jscinoz: which version of firefox ?
[04:44] <SAGA> hmm
[04:44] <SAGA> byeee
[04:44] <nickrud> Leefmc several ways, you can put an alias in ~/.bashrc , or write a bash script for more complex stuff
[04:45] <askvictor> candive: can you run clamwin using sudo? i.e. gksudo clamwin-command (or whatever it's called)?
[04:45] <In-Sane``> BZWingZero: how do i know which card it is?
[04:45] <````bulldogg> this should help you Aaron http://www.linuxforums.org/forum/linux-networking/120971-broadcom-wireless-ubuntu-8-04-a.html
[04:45] <jscinoz> arbir, what ever is the latest in the repo, i believe 3.0rc1
[04:45] <arbir> wants to know the differnence between SCIM and Keyboard layout ( which lets you type in ur language of choice)
[04:45] <arbir> hmm @ jscinoz
[04:45] <Leefmc> nickrud: Is multiple commands "complex"?
[04:45] <Leefmc> Are*
[04:45] <asc> askvictor: Any word on which services will make it dies when you disable them?
[04:46] <Aaron2> bulldog: I see an issue right off the bat... I can't even get my laptop to grab the net plugged in with a hard wire
[04:46] <nickrud> Leefmc yeah, more than one command would generally take a script.  Open a file in the text editor,  put     #! /bin/bash      on the first line, then whatever commands you want on the following lines
[04:46] <arbir> jscinoz: this is rather weird
[04:46] <arbir> jscinoz: did you try re-installing the package ?
[04:46] <askvictor> asc: perhaps try booting into recovery mode and wait an hour to see if it's a service or the basic system.
[04:47] <Sindacious> Can anyone tell me if there would be any dangers if I purged MySQL, and phpmyadmin off my machine?
[04:47] <arbir> Sindacious: are you keeping a backup ?
[04:47] <Leefmc> nickrud: How is it run? Doubleclick? Essentially, "execute" it?
[04:47] <````bulldogg> okay Aaron... can anyone else help with this..
[04:47] <````bulldogg> I thought it was a wireless issue
[04:47] <Starnestommy> Sindacious: you wouldn't be able to use anything that required mysql
[04:47] <Aaron2> heh heh, sorry. I told you guys I was noobish
[04:47] <jscinoz> arbir, yes i've tried that, also tried with a blank config (moved ~/.mozilla away temporarily)
[04:47] <asc> askvictor: Aight. Thanks.
[04:47] <````bulldogg> dont' worry about it I am very much a rookie to
[04:47] <Boohbah> Leefmc: or if it's just a few lines, you can put it right in the shell and escape lines with the "\" character
[04:47] <Leefmc> nickrud: Also, what extension? .bash ?
[04:48] <Boohbah> .sh
[04:48] <````bulldogg> I will never claim to be an expert there is always stuff to learn
[04:48] <Sindacious> arbir, Starnestommy, I'm planning on reinstalling both, however a few things messed up and I don't know any other way to fix it but to get rid of it and reinstall (Which I don't have a huge problem with)
[04:48] <nickrud> Leefmc usually you'd run stuff like that from a terminal. Or, you could right click the desktop, use Create Launcher, and run it from there. And no extension is needed. One more step, after you save it. You have to run   chmod +x  <file>  to make it executable
[04:48] <arbir> jscinoz: try this $ firefox -createprofile
[04:48] <Starnestommy> Sindacious: I think you may also lose any databases that yoy have
[04:48] <askvictor> asc: or you could add a little logging script to write every minute or two what processes are running and how much memory/cpu each is using?
[04:48] <Leefmc> Boohbah, nickrud: Ty
[04:49] <arbir> what did you mess up Sindacious?
[04:49] <Aaron2> actually... I don't know if this matters or not, but I don't have the network manager
[04:49] <jscinoz> arbir one moment.
[04:49] <arbir> Sindacious: make sure you have ur /var/lib/mysql directory backuped up
[04:49] <Aaron2> I was reading about it in a couple of different walkthroughs and I just don't have it
[04:49] <Aaron2> or I'm too green to find it heh
[04:49] <Aaron2> I'm having to try and do everythign manually
[04:49] <Aaron2> And while I'm getting the settings right, it still won't connect
[04:49] <Boohbah> !bash | Leefmc
[04:50] <Boohbah> oops
[04:50] <Sindacious> arbir, this is weird last time I looked at it something was messed up now everything's back to normal.
[04:50] <sensae> How can I use Virtualbox? There is no module package for kernel -18
[04:50] <````bulldogg> Your network manager should be under System... then select administration... then select network aaron
[04:50] <arbir> Sindacious: Sindacious can u tellme whats messed up ?
[04:50] <arbir> Sindacious: its very vague
[04:50] <Boohbah> Leefmc: http://tldp.org/LDP/abs/html/
[04:50] <asc> askvictor: I'm just watching it on Conky. 1-2% CPU and 7% ram use. :p
[04:50] <nickrud> Leefmc one more thing:  install    abs-guide  , it's the advanced bash scripting guide. It lives at /usr/share/doc/abs-guide after you install it
[04:50] <Gun_Smoke> .
[04:50] <arbir> Boohbah: can u help me with SCIM and keyboard layouts ?
[04:50] <asc> I'll see what happens when it dies in half an hour
[04:50] <Aaron2> okay, so it's just the manual configuration editor?
[04:50] <Leefmc> Thank you
[04:51] <Boohbah> arbir: no i only use us english keyboard, sorry
[04:51] <Sindacious> arbir, well originally a error message was coming up when trying to bring up phpmyadmin on the machine, but it's back to the normal login page now (I can't remember what the error said)
[04:51] <jscinoz> arbir, hmm i just found another update in synaptic, seems to have fixed it
[04:51] <sensae> What can I do when the virtualbox-ose-modules package doesn't exist for kernel -18?
[04:51] <````bulldogg> That should open a window that is titled Network Settings
[04:51] <arbir> Sindacious: well then, i guess you can sit back and relax
[04:51] <illa> now im confused, i thought i had my munting sorted out, but ii cant write to the hardd rive with out using sudo, Im using /dev/sdd1 /media/NEW ext3 auto,users,rw 0 0, the ubuntu thread syas no need to add masks with ext3?  the user i use in ubuntu is owner of the mount pont
[04:51] <arbir> is stuck :-(
[04:51] <askvictor> asc: or if you're sure it's that regular, you could try changing the system time to jump forward to the next expected crash - that way you can see if it's based on actual time or something else which builds up (disk space, memory, temperature...) that seems to take an hour
[04:51] <Sindacious> arbir, lol, sorry about that :x
[04:52] <candive> askvictor, I have set root passwrd should I remove the root password???
[04:52] <illa> sensae:run the setup again
[04:52] <Aaron2> yeah, that's it
[04:52] <Aaron2> but isn't it supposed to find the networks that I have around?
[04:52] <illa> sensae:i had that when i installed, updated some packages, then vbox wouldnt run
[04:52] <sensae> illa: Which setup?
[04:52] <````bulldogg> okay what do you see inside that window aaron/ anything
[04:52] <sensae> illa: I installed Vbox from repos
[04:52] <arbir> candive: you can just open the /etc/passwd file and put a ! to reset root passwd
[04:52] <Starnestommy> candive: or use sudo passwd -l
[04:52] <illa> i kinda forget, it was a few weeks ago, but i thought it was sort of like a service
[04:52] <arbir> anybody can help me with SCIM ?
[04:52] <````bulldogg> actually it should show your network resourses such as your nic card... you wireless card etc
[04:53] <asc> askvictor: I'm pretty sure it was an hour. The last entry before the reboot was uptimed moving it up to rank X at 59:52 or something.
[04:53] <oranye> ll;p
[04:53] <illa> and it was like service setup or something, i figured it out real fast so must have been on  ggoolgle
[04:53] <oranye> haloooooooooooooooo
[04:53] <askvictor> illa: since it's an ext3 fs, any permissions on the fs will be used by the system that mounts it.
[04:53] <asc> Also, it's happened at 22 after at least 3 times in a row :p
[04:53] <nickrud> arbir what language are you trying to use?
[04:53] <illa> so i set permissions on the mount point or fs?
[04:53] <candive> arbir, Starnestommy, thank you
[04:53] <BZWingZero> Ok, so I just tried replacing the desktop's xorg.conf with the one that works on the live disk and.... nothing changed.
[04:53] <arbir> devanagri / Hindi
[04:53] <asc> askvictor: But anyway. These are things that I will try.
[04:54] <````bulldogg> arron mine shows a wireless connection.. a wired connection and a dialup connection.. what does yours look like
[04:54] <nickrud> arbir try joining #ubuntu-in , that channel probably has plenty of people who've set that up
[04:54] <arbir> nickrud . thanks, it should work out, i guess
[04:54] <arbir> let me try
[04:54] <UBUNTUJAY123> where do i get a version of swiftfox for ubuntu
[04:55] <sensae> How do I install proposed packages?
[04:55] <Lo_Pan> urmom
[04:55] <nickrud> arbir I've messed with it in the past, but don't have the right stuff installed right now to test again
[04:55] <askvictor> asc: I hate debugging things that take a while to occur... but at least it's regular and not just random :)
[04:55] <nickrud> sensae system->admin->software sources, find proposed on the update tabs.
[04:55] <arbir> nickrud: thats fine.... atleast u gave me a pointer
[04:55] <arbir> thanks a ton nickrud
[04:55] <asc> It it was a real error maybe it would give a reason. :\
[04:55] <nickrud> arbir hope it's not a wasted trip
[04:56] <arbir> nickrud: that channel is like empty
[04:56] <arbir> hardly 20 folks there :-(
[04:56] <nickrud> sensae after you do that, you can find the package in synaptic
[04:56] <illa> thanks guys
[04:56] <illa> set permissions on the mount point
[04:56] <sensae> nickrud: KDE :) Do you know where it is in Adept?
[04:56] <BZWingZero> Ok, so any ideas on how I can get X working on my laptop? Copying an Xorg.conf from the live CD (where x worked) didn't solve the problem.
[04:57] <Aaron2> bulldog: mine shows the same
[04:57] <arbir> sensae: just search
[04:57] <nickrud> sensae nope, but I'm sure adept has something about setting sources
[04:57] <arbir> sensae: adept should have a search
[04:57] <Tux>  Ok I am having a issue changing my login window after I set it and close the window it resets to default? any ideas on why
[04:57] <sensae> No no, I meant where it is in Adept's software sources
[04:57] <sensae> nevermind though
[04:57] <Qster> had a question i put 2 folders in trash bin, but wont let me empty says i do not have access, yet wont let me take back out of trash bin either
[04:57] <nickrud> sensae if no one answers here, try #kubuntu those guys use that second rate software ;)
[04:57] <arbir> LOL @ nickrud
[04:57] <sensae> nickrud: They actually just did, and lol at second rate.
[04:57] <oranye> helooooooooo
[04:58] <Gun_Smoke> Qster: Have you tried from a terminal?
[04:58] <arbir> nickrud: which is ur default file manager  ?
[04:58] <Qster> how do i empty trash from terminal?
[04:58] <nickrud> arbir nautilus in spacial mode
[04:58] <````bulldogg> okay Aaron if it shows the same you should be able to plug into a cat5 cable and get an ip address as long as your modem is giving dhcp....if you can get an address and surf the internet this way.... then open a terminal and do a sudo apt-get "the list of files that website I gave you was"
[04:58] <oranye> what is your name?
[04:58] <Aaron2> ok, I've got ndiswrapper transferred over via thumbdrive. How do I install?
[04:58] <arbir> nickrud: whats that spacial mode ?
[04:58] <````bulldogg> sudo apt-get install "said files" aaron
[04:58] <oranye> get aout
[04:58] <arbir> nickrud: i have been using thunar, the lightwreight manager, its less buggy somehow
[04:59] <oranye> ?????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????
[04:59] <Qster> Gun_Smoke: how do i empty trash bin from terminal?
[04:59] <shelbyscates> Qster: sudo rm -rf ~/.Trash/
[04:59] <oranye> whhat i ve done
[04:59] <nickrud> arbir it's an aquired taste, it doesn't use a tree view, it uses separate windows for each directory; depending on how you click it leaves the original open or closes it, also the windows show up in the same place on the desktop each time it's opened
[04:59] <sensae> I'd be using GNOME if it wasn't for a few choice bugs
[04:59] <````bulldogg> what kind of a file is it Aaron? is it a .deb
[04:59] <````bulldogg> ?
[04:59] <Starnestommy> Qster: without the sudo
[04:59] <shelbyscates> ok well fine :P
[04:59] <arbir> nickrud: dont think i have taste for that
[05:00] <oranye> not responding have a computer
[05:00] <shelbyscates> anyways i have a question
[05:00] <BZWingZero> Ok, so any ideas on how I can get X working on my laptop? Copying an Xorg.conf from the live CD (where x worked) didn't solve the problem.
[05:00] <oranye> taek
[05:00] <nickrud> oranye helo, no ones ignoring you, you just haven't asked a question
[05:00] <Aaron2> gz.tar
[05:00] <Leefmc> Question: What are these files with ~ at the end of them? At first i thought it was something to do with Git, but now i found some outside of git. So what are they? Temp files?
[05:00] <Gun_Smoke> ?
[05:00] <nickrud> Leefmc backups
[05:00] <Starnestommy> Leefmc: temp files or backups made by editors
[05:01] <````bulldogg> Aaron it would be so much easier if you did the sudo apt-get install to get those files... all dependencies will be solved and such
[05:01] <nickrud> arbir don't knock it till you've used it for a while, it's really nice once you've set it up the way you work
[05:01] <In-Sane``> sorry for repeating but how do I make sure if my graphic card is enabled or not? I got tired trying to enable desktop effects and I don't seem to be able to run compiz in my laptop. any help please?
[05:01] <arbir> nickrud: have u tried thunar ?
[05:02] <arbir> nickrud: also, which music player do you use as default ?
[05:02] <Gun_Smoke> shelbyscates: it would be in his home folder wouldn't it
[05:02] <sensae> I like Dolphin ;)
[05:02] <Mr_Bad_News> im on a toshiba satelite and all my tty terminals are blank
[05:02] <Mr_Bad_News> sometimes i can log in but the text is huge
[05:02] <nickrud> arbir used it for a while on a weak computer, but not much. And that first rate software, amarok ;)
[05:02] <yell0w> arbir: amarok
[05:03] <Tux> minirok
[05:03] <Leefmc> nickrud, Starnestommy: Ah hah, so should they be ignored then? When are they normally removed? (Ie, i closed gedit, yet the ~ still exists)
[05:03] <BZWingZero> In-Sane``, You check it with glxinfo. If DirectRendering is "no" then your graphics card is enabled. Enabling it depends on the card
[05:03] <arbir> i liked amarok, but somehow, its album management is something i could not understand
[05:03] <nickrud> Leefmc I occasionally go through and delete them, but generally I just ignore them. (saved my butt once)
[05:03] <Tux>  Ok I am having a issue changing my login window after I set it and close the window it resets to default? any ideas on why
[05:03] <Leefmc> nickrud: So there is no auto-remove time? They just perma exist?
[05:03] <candive> Last question tonight.  Where do I find a listing for all these commands used in terminal?
[05:03] <arbir> nickrud: yell0w,.. also the fonts are small, and i dont have qtconfig for qt3, unless there is an amarok based on qt4
[05:04] <Anon> Hey, I'm having an issue with Ubuntu Hardy on my Macbook, The sound keeps dropping out for half a second every 15 seconds while listening to music
[05:04] <nickrud> Leefmc yes, think of them as automatic backups of the previous file version
[05:04] <yell0w> arbir: yes there's atconfig for qt3
[05:04] <In-Sane``> BZWingZero: i checked it and it says: direct rendering: No (If you want to find out why, try setting LIBGL_DEBUG=verbose)
[05:04] <Gun_Smoke> Qster: Get it?
[05:04] <````bulldogg> Anon do you happen to know what version of alsa you are running?
[05:04] <shelbyscates> hey you guys i made some custom keyboard commands ( to start and stop ssh) an example script is: <script>#!/bin/bash gksudo /etc/init.d/ssh start</script> as an example, i used the guide at http://www.howtogeek.com/howto/ubuntu/assign-custom-shortcut-keys-on-ubuntu-linux/ and the keyboard commands work PERFECTLY in gnome, but i dont use gnome, i use wmii, and when i tried it again in wmii, it didnt work :( how can i make it
[05:04] <Anon> Should be the latest
[05:04] <shelbyscates> <- but it didnt work and i found the settings were intact
[05:04] <arbir> yell0w: is there an amarok based on qt4 ?
[05:04] <nickrud> Leefmc you'll only see them when you have show hidden files on, or use ls -a
[05:04] <BZWingZero> In-Sane``, Ok, the next step is to figure out what kind of card it is and how to enable it.
[05:05] <````bulldogg> I had problems with the sound on my macbook until I updated to I believe it is 1.16
[05:05] <Anon> ````bulldog: I think it is the latest, I used apt-get
[05:05] <Leefmc> nickrud: Interesting. Any idea if terminal commands will see them then? Commands such as Git (git add ., git commit -a, or directly)
[05:05] <In-Sane``> BZWingZero: it is ati card
[05:05] <BZWingZero> In-Sane``, Which one. Some work better than others.
[05:05] <nickrud> Leefmc never used git myself
[05:05] <Leefmc> (Note i am aware git is not specific to the terminal, but yea heh)
[05:05] <In-Sane``> BZWingZero: how do i tell?
[05:05] <Leefmc> nickrud: K
[05:05] <Leefmc> nickrud: ty :)
[05:05] <yell0w> arbir: don't know, not in the default repos
[05:05] <shelbyscates> anyone plx?
[05:05] <SammyFoodRun> isn't that a bad cartoon
[05:05] <Leefmc> nickrud: I'll just watch and see if one pops up in a commit of mine heh
[05:06] <arbir> i can download the latest for qt4 based amarok ?
[05:06] <SammyFoodRun> what's wrong with writing a file to it? i don't get how that's not clean
[05:06] <BZWingZero> In-Sane``, It will be listed somewhere in the list if you type "lspci" (w/o quotes) into a terminal.
[05:06] <nickrud> Leefmc hahaha, hope no one thinks badly of you if they do :)
[05:06] <yell0w> arbir: you can certainly try at their site
[05:06] <In-Sane``> BZWingZero: check it here http://paste.ubuntu.com/18242/
[05:06] <````bulldogg> Anon I am not sure then.. that is what corrected my issues... I haven't heard of the in and out issue with the sound... did you check www.ubuntuforms.org under the Apple section?
[05:06] <arbir> yell0w: looking now :-)
[05:06] <SammyFoodRun> ma3x: "sync" isn't the default.
[05:06] <Starnestommy> SammyFoodRun: wmii and gnome use different sets of shorcuts
[05:06] <shelbyscates> ok
[05:07] <Anon> ````bulldog: I checked around, no answers
[05:07] <Starnestommy> SammyFoodRun: er, forget that, I had the wrong person

[05:07] <````bulldogg> Anon how new is your macbook?
[05:07] <Leefmc> nickrud: Luckily its my public project, so to hell with them if they do :D
[05:07] <BZWingZero> Ok, so any ideas on how I can get X working on my laptop? Copying an Xorg.conf from the live CD (where x worked) didn't solve the problem
[05:07] <Anon> ````bulldog: Not very new, CD bay is faulty, makes installs difficult, and the HFS partition died, so now I dont have OSX
[05:07] <Starnestommy> shelbyscates: wmii and gnome use different shortcuts
[05:07] <shelbyscates> Starnestommy: is there any way to make it work in wmii though? its my server and its kinda important?
[05:07] <In-Sane``> BZWingZero: ok, how do i enable it please? I am sorry i am new into this.
[05:08] <Sambahelp> Excuse me, how can I share a folder in ubuntu 8.04?
[05:08] <utzxubiru> anyone know how to install usb wifi card belkin f5d5071 bcm ccipset????????
[05:08] <Gun_Smoke> Sambahelp: With what?
[05:08] <Sambahelp> and can we ban SammyFoodRun ? he seems to have some kinda spam thing
[05:08] <BZWingZero> In-Sane``, I'm not sure but I'll do a little research to try and figure out how.
[05:08] <DragonSpirit> SammyFoodRun is spamming users in this chat
[05:08] <````bulldogg> did you try booting with just the live cd and see if you had the same problems with the sound?
[05:08] <Sambahelp> Gun_Smoke: I right clicked a folder and set it to share, I get an error
[05:08] <Starnestommy> shelbyscates: there should be a way to do it in wmii, but I'm not sure what it is
[05:09] <In-Sane``> BZWingZero: ok, I will try searching too
[05:09] <shelbyscates> Starnestommy: ok thanks, ill RTFM :)
[05:09] <Gun_Smoke> Sambahelp: So you want to share that folder with what?
[05:09] <arbir> yell0w: seems like latest version is 1.4.7
[05:09] <Sambahelp> I get this error, Gun_Smoke "'net usershare' returned error 255: net usershare: cannot open usershare directory /var/lib/samba/usershares. Error Permission denied
[05:09] <Sambahelp> You do not have permission to create a usershare.  Is there a way to go back to the default sound drivers? So I can see if it still happens?
[05:09] <shelbyscates> Starnestommy: i have a nasty habit of asking before RTFM'ing
[05:09] <shelbyscates> :P
[05:09] <Gun_Smoke> Sambahelp: you need samba how ironic
[05:09] <Sambahelp> Gun_Smoke: samba I suppose, the default thing is samba, right? It sorta worked before I formatted.
[05:10] <SgtSchultz> In-Sane``: open System>Admin>Hardware Drivers is there a box to check there for Enable ATI?
[05:10] <nickrud> shelbyscates there's a doc package for wmii and wmii2 , try looking there
[05:10] <utzxubiru> anyone know how to install usb wifi card belkin f5d5071 bcm chipset????????
[05:10] <shelbyscates> ok... :)
[05:10] <Gun_Smoke> Sambahelp: Yes its very simple.. Look to the documentation from ubuntu.com
[05:10] <shingen> fwiw, SammyFoodRun is doing onjoin msgs
[05:10] <nano> in ubuntu boot process, when exactly are the /etc/modprobe.d/ scripts run?
[05:10] <jhassing1> hi everyone, i could use some help here....i just installed ubuntu today
[05:10] <````bulldogg> Anon have you put the mac in target disk mode and reinstalled OSX to see if it has the same problems?
[05:10] <crimsun> Anon: sudo apt-get --reinstall install linux-ubuntu-modules-$(uname -r)
[05:10] <Infinito_> we are the ops to ban the spammer ?
[05:10] <Infinito_> =/
[05:10] <Lynet> Sambahelp: Is this the first time you're sharing a folder on this machine?
[05:10] <PsRAM> hello
[05:11] <Aaron2> isn't a mac
[05:11] <PsRAM> why i not access to #ubuntu-fr ?
[05:11] <Sambahelp> Lynet: no, but it is the first time since I formatted
[05:11] <Aaron2> it's a PC
[05:11] <BZWingZero> Ok, so any ideas on how I can get X working on my laptop? Copying an Xorg.conf from the live CD (where x worked) didn't solve the problem.
[05:11] <Aaron2> old Gateway I had previously
[05:11] <nano> utzxubiru, do you need help with ndiswrapper
[05:11] <````bulldogg> Anon I am suspisious of the machine because it seems to be having several hardware failures
[05:11] <nickrud> nano iirc those are run when the module gets loaded, and the module loading depends on when the device is recognized by the kernel
[05:11] <Lynet> Sambahelp: Let me guess, you first got a message about installing some software?
[05:11] <Aaron2> and the wireless was the only connection method I used previous
[05:11] <shelbyscates> utzxubiru: its not easy, especially with ubuntu, you have to use ndiswrapper, you must have the windows driver, and configure ubuntu to use it if its supported (thats all i can tell you) ;)
[05:11] <crimsun> 2/win 30
[05:11] <jhassing1> if there is a private chat option of some kind in here could someone please contact me and help me out with my internet problem?
[05:11] <In-Sane``> BZWingZero: the box is empty, it says: no propriety drivers are in use on this system!!!
[05:11] <Anon> ````bulldogg: the sound is perfect under windows, I am gonna re install osx once I get access to another mac
[05:11] <crimsun> gah

[05:12] <Aaron2> I just tried again, this time not going through my router, but plugging directly into the modem
[05:12] <Aaron2> still no dice
[05:12] <PsRAM> the bot is <SammyFoodRun>
[05:12] <jhassing1> ok, sorry
[05:12] <nano> nickrud, so basically during the boot process, as devices are recognize , that is when scripts in /etc/modprobe.d/ are run?
[05:12] <BZWingZero> In-Sane`` Then there are no proprietary drivers available. I'm not sure how to get that particular card working.
[05:12] <nickrud> nano yes
[05:12] <Lynet> Sambahelp: Log out and log back in. It is an issue with the samba stuff not propagating some user rights. A relog will fix it and it should work fine.

[05:17] <antzikal> hello everyone. first of all i am starter, next , i ahve a problem with codecs , i vave kaffeine and mplayer installed and almost every codec library , thought when i try to play a video i hear the sound but i got a static blue frame, anyone can help me?
[05:17] <BZWingZero> yell0w, yes, I installed 7.10 clean from the live disk (x worked fine on the live session). Rebooted to the 7.10 install and had no x. Updated to 8.04 through the terminal and still no X.
[05:18] <PsRAM> 1201 users here it's good channel
[05:18] <yell0w> BZWingZero: you might want to switch to console by atl-ctrl-F2 and do sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[05:18] <BZWingZero> There aren't any video options in it in 8.04, just keyboard and mouse.
[05:19] <yell0w> BZWingZero: did the installation goes through ?
[05:19] <jhassing1> i have to be honest i really don't know much about computers...
[05:19] <BZWingZero> yell0w, The installation and the upgrade went just fine, no errors. Just a blank screen if X tries to start.
[05:20] <yell0w> BZWingZero: that reconfigure doesn't do you any good ?
[05:20] <yell0w> @_@
[05:20] <danc3> BZWingZero: I'd recommend you do a clean install of 8.04
[05:21] <BZWingZero> yell0w, the reconfigure doesn't touch video in 8.04 anymore. Thank "bulletproof X"
[05:22] <BZWingZero> danc3, I was going to try to avoid that because it'll take all night to dowload the disk. Oh well. Let the download begin.
[05:22] <amonxz_keops> i need help with my pgp password
[05:22] <yell0w> BZWingZero: check the logs ?
[05:22] <amonxz_keops> someone here can help me
[05:22] <amonxz_keops> ?
[05:22] <Starnestommy> amonxz_keops: what kind of help do you need with it?
[05:22] <danc3> BZWingZero: might be time to upgrade your net connection, too....  ;)
[05:23] <````bulldogg> BZWingZero,  dowloading it from bittorrent should be fairly fast
[05:23] <Nostahl> i cant beleive ubuntu 8.04 shipped without DMA support for sata drives!!!
[05:23] <amonxz_keops> let me give u the link of my situation
[05:23] <SgtSchultz> antzikal: open mplayer then right click on control panel and find preferences the click video tab on top. which video driver are you using?
[05:23] <BZWingZero> ````bulldog, its the connection, not the source.
[05:23] <````bulldogg> BZWingZero, oic
[05:23] <BZWingZero> danc3,I would if I had the funds.
[05:24] <aata> hello alll... wondering if i could get some help about upgrading to 8.04... im using the alt install cd. when i first ran the upgrade it asked me if i wanted to d/l new packages i said yes and started the upgrade..... then the power cut out, so i started again but most of the packages were already downloaded.... now whenever i run the upgrade, it says fetching packages and near the end gives me an error about not being able to get them from the cd.... ive burn
[05:24] <cruiseoveride> ...even on saturday night, there's over 1000 people in here
[05:24] <amonxz_keops> https://launchpad.net/codeofconduct
[05:24] <crimsun> Nostahl: err, without DMA support for some SATA controllers?  likely.  without DMA support for /all/ SATA?  no.
[05:24] <amonxz_keops> here is my problem
[05:25] <Starnestommy> amonxz_keops: that's a link to launchpad.net's code of conduct page, not a problem.
[05:25] <yell0w> BZWingZero: if it's really that bad and you'r in the states i can send you a cd
[05:25] <yell0w> lol
[05:25] <El> hello guys
[05:25] <yell0w> hello El
[05:25] <BZWingZero> yell0w, Thanks, but I have it downloaded and burned already at work, I just won't be back there until Monday.
[05:26] <El> any1 can help me with installation im havin an error
[05:26] <yell0w> BZWingZero: ah ok
[05:26] <amonxz_keops> dont get u
[05:26] <Starnestommy> amonxz_keops: what is your problem?
[05:27] <amonxz_keops> but my problem is the pgp key
[05:27] <Starnestommy> amonxz_keops: er, what is your question about it?
[05:27] <amonxz_keops> i need to validate it
[05:27] <Starnestommy> amonxz_keops: did you make a pgp/gpg key?
[05:27] <amonxz_keops> i created it but i cant upload it to the server
[05:27] <Insurrecto> Im having this Buffer I/O FD0 when installing from the cd.
[05:27] <SgtSchultz> antzikal: open mplayer then right click on control panel and find preferences then click video tab on top. which video driver are you using?
[05:28] <aata> anyone?
[05:28] <Starnestommy> amonxz_keops: does "gpg --send-keys" work?
[05:29] <amonxz_keops> no
[05:29] <danc3> aata:  I'd recommend you do a clean install of 8.04
[05:29] <Starnestommy> amonxz_keops: what does it say when it doesn't work?
[05:29] <Nostahl> crimsun i cant find any were online where people are having success with dma on sata drives?
[05:29] <amonxz_keops> let me paste it
[05:29] <Starnestommy> amonxz_keops: to a pastebin, please
[05:30] <crimsun> Nostahl: it works fine here.
[05:30] <aata> danc3 but why wouldn't the upgrade work? ive had to do this for every upgrade... it just doesnt make sense i can never just put in the cd and make it work... plus i lose all my installed programs.....
[05:30] <Nostahl> whats the command to enable it with sata
[05:30] <Nostahl> its not hdparm
[05:31] <danc3> aata: I don't know, but upgrades frequently don't work completely right.  You won't lose your "programs", and you should have a backup of your home directory anyway, which is where all your settings are.
[05:31] <amonxz_keops> http://img376.imageshack.us/my.php?image=pantallazokeopsnormandeoe3.png
[05:31] <amonxz_keops> no is an image
[05:31] <danc3> Nostahl: sdparm ?
[05:32] <owen1> how to check for updates from the command line?
[05:32] <Starnestommy> amonxz_keops: gpg --send-keys appears to have worked
[05:32] <Starnestommy> amonxz_keops: I don't think it's supposed to say anything if it worked
[05:33] <aata> danc3 i have a backup of my home directory that no problem.... a fresh install just means i have to download all the apps that i had installed previously.... again. if there's a way around that, then im game :)
[05:33] <Nostahl> danc3 what options with sdparm?
[05:33] <Boohbah> aata: you could keep a list of installed programs and reinstall them all in a single command. 'dpkg --get-selections > list.txt'
[05:33] <danc3> Nostahl: don't know, read the man page
[05:33] <Nostahl> ie hdparm -d1 /dev/ etc
[05:33] <BZWingZero> owen1: "sudo apt-get update" then "sudo apt-get upgrade"
[05:33] <amonxz_keops> well
[05:34] <danc3> aata: oh well, start downloading
[05:34] <owen1> BZWingZero: thanks
[05:34] <Insurrecto> Hello, any1 can tell me a solution for the buffer i/o fd0 error when installing?
[05:34] <aata> Boohbah true but im not near a very fast internet connection. it would take like 10 hours to download everything again ( i know cause ive done this when upgrading to 7.10 also)
[05:34] <danc3> aata: what apps are you using that don't come with the installation?
[05:34] <amenado> !clone | aata
[05:35] <SgtSchultz> Nostahl: everything i have read says there are no DMA settings available or needed for Sata drives
[05:35] <aata> danc3 i know just trying to make this as comfortable as possible
[05:35] <amonxz_keops> it doesnt work
[05:35] <Boohbah> amenado: nice
[05:35] <UBUNTUJAY123> ok i installed swiftfox why does it still pop up firefox2 when i open it
[05:35] <pabix> hello, I am trying to capture audio sound, not from a microphone, but sound that my computer is playing from a flash application
[05:35] <Nostahl> why is my ripping speed so slow if its not dma issue?
[05:35] <UBUNTUJAY123> do i have to unistall firefox2
[05:36] <amenado> UBUNTUJAY123-> look at the command behind swfitfox, does it call firefox2?
[05:36] <aata> amenado i tried that before... seems like it only works on machines running the same version of ubuntu cause it downloads the packages for that release
[05:36] <UBUNTUJAY123> swiftfox %u thats the command
[05:37] <UBUNTUJAY123> so that means i have to keep firefox2 right
[05:37] <amenado> aata you can always get a list of what is installed and then use those as the list for installation on the new
[05:37] <Starnestommy> UBUNTUJAY123: I don't think firefox2 affects switfox in any way
[05:37] <robert__> hey yall i found out how to change the default media player in hardy :)
[05:38] <UBUNTUJAY123> when i lanch swift firefox pops u
[05:38] <amenado> UBUNTUJAY123-> you can see if swiftfox is a script and look inside it, to see if it calls firefox2
[05:38] <UBUNTUJAY123> how i do that
[05:38] <robert__> do what?
[05:38] <amenado> UBUNTUJAY123-> man file
[05:39] <Boohbah> aata: no, just change your /etc/apt/sources.list
[05:39] <aata> ok so how is hardy better than gutsy anyway...?
[05:39] <Boohbah> aata: the software is newer
[05:39] <aata> Boohbah meaning?
[05:39] <robert__> how do you do what ubuntujay123?
[05:39] <Chrysalis> what does 'list index out of range mean'?
[05:39] <Boohbah> aata: THAT IT WAS RELEASED AT A LATER DATE
[05:39] <UBUNTUJAY123> see if siwft has to have firefox2 or not
[05:39] <yell0w> aata: crane attack is better than monkeyfoo
[05:40] <chaqu1> hey everyone, i have a problem with XGL and an ATI card
[05:40] <Gun_Smoke> aata: it a newer release.
[05:40] <BZWingZero> Boobah, Newer doesn't always equal better... just look at vista and XP.
[05:40] <aata> Boohbah i was talking about changing the /etc/apt/sources.list..... :P
[05:40] <Boohbah> yell0w: i'm going for tiger claw
[05:40] <aata> im not that stupid.....
[05:40] <robert__> thats true
[05:40] <chepner> Nostahl: do you have paranoia mode on?  that will make ripping a lot slower
[05:40] <````bulldogg> aata, it is more refined it has long term support
[05:40] <amenado> UBUNTUJAY123-> first thing is find out if swift is a script or a binary, if a script then you can peek inside
[05:40] <Gun_Smoke> aata: That's cool.
[05:40] <Boohbah> aata: s/gutsy/hardy/g
[05:40] <UBUNTUJAY123> amenado i dont know how to do that
[05:40] <Insurrecto>  Hello, any1 can tell me a solution for the buffer i/o fd0 error when installing??
[05:40] <amenado> UBUNTUJAY123-> man file
[05:41] <aata> meaning change the gutsy's to hardy's?
[05:41] <UBUNTUJAY123> whats a man file
[05:41] <Gun_Smoke> I'd say if your up and running smooth on either to say where your at..
[05:41] <amenado> UBUNTUJAY123-> man file  <-- type that on a terminal
[05:41] <Gun_Smoke> stay*
[05:41] <robert__> whats man file?
[05:41] <Gun_Smoke> hahahahahaha
[05:41] <Insurrecto> lol
[05:41] <Boohbah> UBUNTUJAY123: it's a man page that tells you about the various unix command line utilities
[05:41] <yell0w> Gun_Smoke: i like hardy's ufw
[05:41] <Insurrecto> man = manual
[05:42] <Boohbah> oh he is saying read the man page for 'file'
[05:42] <robert__> whats it do?
[05:42] <Nostahl> chepner what how do i tell
[05:42] <UBUNTUJAY123> y i wnat that for
[05:42] <In-Sane``> how do i delete a non empty folder?
[05:42] <amenado> UBUNTUJAY123-> so you will learn what the command is about
[05:42] <Gun_Smoke> robert__: Open a terminal and type man bash
[05:42] <Insurrecto> hey im getting fd0 buffer erro when installing how can i fix it?
[05:42] <robert__> ok
[05:42] <aata> In-Sane rm -rf /path/to/folder
[05:42] <````bulldogg> UBUNTUJAY123, so you can learn.
[05:42] <Gun_Smoke> or, "man ls"
[05:43] <BZWingZero> or " man man
[05:43] <Gun_Smoke> or "man man"
[05:43] <In-Sane``> aata: thanks
[05:43] <UBUNTUJAY123> all i want to know is if i have to have firefx to run swiftfox
[05:43] <Boohbah> UBUNTUJAY123: so that command will tell you if swiftfox is a script or a binary, whether you can edit it or not
[05:43] <amenado> Insurrecto-> dont worry about fd0 unless you are using it.. fd0 is floppy disk
[05:43] <Insurrecto> it wont let me install
[05:43] <robert__> that made no sense at all
[05:43] <Insurrecto> ill keep getting the error
[05:43] <Gun_Smoke> robert__: Just do it.
[05:43] <Insurrecto> and then it shows me a command line
[05:43] <Boohbah> !swiftfox
[05:43] <Gun_Smoke> You'll learn a lot.
[05:43] <UBUNTUJAY123> i just uninstall firefox and see for my self
[05:43] <robert__> i did
[05:44] <UBUNTUJAY123> thank any ways
[05:44] <yell0w> Insurrecto: try to install using the alternative cd
[05:44] <Gun_Smoke> robert__:  What do you see?
[05:44] <Starnestommy> UBUNTUJAY123: I don't think swiftfox needs firefox
[05:44] <chepner> Nostahl: what program are you using rip?  in the options there should be settings to control how much error checking is done when reading the disk
[05:44] <Starnestommy> ...
[05:44] <Insurrecto> where can i find that? in ubuntu page?
[05:44] <kain> i'm unable to get ff2 or 3 to start in 8.04 and galeon says something about not having access to or the right ssh stuff but i thought i fixed that in an update? thunderbird doesn't start either? this is the case on 2 machines 1 pc 1 laptop both good machines running XP better and easier than U8,04
[05:44] <Gun_Smoke> robert__: What your supposed to see is the answer to 1195 peoples problems.
[05:44] <robert__> all it does is explain what it is
[05:45] <Nostahl> chepner im using default settings of cd juicer
[05:45] <Boohbah> UBUNTUJAY123 has some sort of aversion to learning...
[05:45] <Nostahl> rhythembox is the same speed too
[05:45] <Gun_Smoke> robert__: Yes, exactly.  So now try "man uptime"
[05:45] <robert__> it doesn't make sense to me
[05:45] <amenado> robert__-> correct ..also try to man man  and you'd read about how to use man pages, and the different options
[05:45] <iNFiNiTE> i have installed ubuntu HH on my laptop today
[05:45] <Gun_Smoke> robert__:  Just read it.  It tells you what it does.
[05:45] <iNFiNiTE> but the external sound is not workign
[05:46] <iNFiNiTE> though the headphones are ok. what can i do to get the speakers working?
[05:46] <````bulldogg> Boohbah, I know I was almost going to give him the go ask google response but I am trying to be nice
[05:46] <aata> ok folks... i dont see what i can do about this upgrade business. last suggestions?
[05:46] <robert__> doesn't look like anything useful to me
[05:46] <kain> i already googled my issues and found nothin of help
[05:46] <````bulldogg> I wasn't talking about you kain lol
[05:47] <amenado> robert__-> if you stay long enuff with unix and linux, and bsd.. you will learn to make friends with man ..pages
[05:47] <kain> i know ;) that wasn't directed at you ;)
[05:47] <yell0w> kain: ssh , firefox and galeon has nothing to do with each other
[05:47] <````bulldogg> I like helping people...as long as they are willing to try
[05:47] <robert__> make friends with?
[05:47] <aata> no?
[05:47] <aata> thanks anyway :)
[05:47] <Gun_Smoke> robert__: You are somewhat expected to at least glance at those pages before you ask for directions on how to read the directions.  Sort of..
[05:47] <BZWingZero> robert__ the manual is excellent when you need to learn how to use something on the command line. E.G. I used it last night to read the manual page for iwconfig to get my wireless working from the command line.
[05:48] <````bulldogg> aata I have never had an upgrade go right
[05:48] <lowlux> in ubuntu 8.04 when i clse a myspace tab or whatever... the damn music keeps n playing.
[05:48] <````bulldogg> you should re install from scratch
[05:48] <SeaPhor> amenado, i did man touch,,, and now i feel kinda dirty
[05:48] <aata> bulldogg thats prob what ill end up doing anyway.
[05:48] <Insurrecto> LOl
[05:48] <amenado> SeaPhor-> heh!
[05:48] <robert__> my wireless already works, thats the only internet i have, which is some neighbors at the apartment building here, don't know where from
[05:48] <amenado> you know in california, we are making it legal..<wink>
[05:49] <In-Sane``> how do i update the packages list in the synaptic package manager?
[05:49] <````bulldogg> I have never had any luck doing an upgrade I don't care what OS it is... it can be Windows, Linux or OSX non of them handle upgrading from one version to another well
[05:49] <Insurrecto> any1 running compizfusion wit an ati card?
[05:49] <kain> Galeon when I try to go to ie. www.schwab.com "Galeon could not initialize the browser security component... SLL protocol disabled not SSH sorry
[05:49] <kain> the only reason i reverted to that is because on fresh installs i can't get mozilla to work
[05:49] <BZWingZero> In-Sane``, I'm not sure exactly how in Synaptic, but you can run "sudo apt-get update" from the terminal and it'll update the package list.
[05:49] <amenado> In-Sane``-> i believe merely typing apt-get update will update the list
[05:50] <kain> mozilla openware i should say
[05:50] <yell0w> kain: try try seamonkey or epiphany-browser ?
[05:50] <kain> tried those too
[05:50] <Gun_Smoke> amenado: No
[05:50] <darth> ````bulldogg, what are you talking about?
[05:50] <kain> same thing
[05:50] <darth> freebsd does upgrading just fine
[05:50] <SgtSchultz> In-Sane``: in synaptic Reload button
[05:50] <kron_> guys can anyone help me?
[05:50] <kain> it looks like it wants to open then shuts down'
[05:50] <robert__> i thought the terminal was the command line, and in that case i google search for information i need
[05:50] <darth> i have a firewall i've upgraded several times
[05:50] <In-Sane``> Insurrecto: i have ati Radeon IGP 330M/340M/350M card and I don't seem to be able to run compiz-fusion
[05:50] <````bulldogg> darth, acutually I haven't tried BSD.. I should...
[05:50] <amenado> Gun_Smoke-> no? okay i stand corrected..what does it do by  apt-get update?
[05:50] <robert__> everything fine so far
[05:50] <yell0w> kain: erhh right after an installation
[05:50] <yell0w> kain:  ?
[05:50] <kain> upgraded... reinstalled packages... uninstalled packages... nothin :(
[05:50] <darth> from 6.0 to 6.2 and to 7.... no problem
[05:50] <kain> yep
[05:50] <BZWingZero> robert__ that is correct, terminal is a command line.
[05:50] <In-Sane``> BZWingZero: ok, my system is up to date, i think
[05:50] <kain> on 2 seperate pc's
[05:50] <darth> ````bulldogg, yes you should
[05:50] <kain> even did re-installs
[05:51] <Gun_Smoke> amenado: Tell you, you don't have permission.
[05:51] <kain> tried just ff2
[05:51] <kain> etc
[05:51] <kain> tried it all
[05:51] <Insurrecto> do u think that it can run in a ati 9700pro 512mb?
[05:51] <````bulldogg> which version do you recommend darth?
[05:51] <darth> ````bulldogg, maybe try pc-bsd, which is a gui-installer on top of freebsd
[05:51] <kain> so here i am ;)
[05:51] <robert__> thats how i check for updates. other than that i don't use it much
[05:51] <````bulldogg> thanks for the quick response lol
[05:51] <yell0w> kain: try google.com ?
[05:51] <In-Sane``> !ati | Insurrecto
[05:51] <amenado> Gun_Smoke-> ahh , I always pressume one uses sudo or in root priviledge
[05:51] <BZWingZero> In-Sane`` that just refreshes the packages. If you do "sudo apt-get upgrade" that will install any updates found.
[05:51] <Gun_Smoke> freebsd can be murder... Don't expect a debian installer
[05:51] <darth> depends ````bulldogg, if you want a desktop system try out pc-bsd, if you want a server use regular freebsd
[05:51] <connor> hi
[05:52] <darth> Gun_Smoke, that is where you use pc-bsd instead.... has a nice gui-installer :)
[05:52] <In-Sane``> BZWingZero: do i need to fo upgrade each time i update my system?
[05:52] <kain> i did ;) that's how i found out about the Ubuntu 8.04 ff install situation
[05:52] <kain> but no help for my issue
[05:52] <Gun_Smoke> amenado: Not here.. You need to remind everyone to use sudo with everything.
[05:52] <robert__> what is the most popular linux distribution? just curious
[05:52] <Starnestommy> robert__: ubuntu
[05:52] <In-Sane``> robert__: ubuntu
[05:52] <````bulldogg> robert__, right now I would say ubuntu... but I dont' want to start a flame
[05:52] <PhoenixP3K> robert__ , are you testing us?
[05:52] <amenado> Gun_Smoke-> right O
[05:52] <yell0w> kain: please, if you're talking to me, please include my name in the front of the line so i can read
[05:52] <BZWingZero> In-Sane`` The update manager should check for updates on its own and prompt you to install them. Theres usually only a few a week.
[05:52] <````bulldogg> I have used a few of them
[05:52] <yell0w> kain: this channel is pretty huge as you know
[05:52] <robert__> its my favorite. i've tried others, but always come back to ubuntu
[05:53] <In-Sane``> BZWingZero: ok ok, i understand now.
[05:53] <````bulldogg> robert__,  I am using ubuntu on my desktops but my server is slackware 12
[05:53] <darth> :)
[05:53] <kain> and i used my dork powers to try to fix it myself... but alas... i have seen boobies... and when you see boobs over and over in your life that sidetracks the dork powers... so here i am.... sat night when i could be effed up watching Dr. Strangelove ;)
[05:53] <Gun_Smoke> robert__: This is perfect for you to learn.
[05:54] <robert__> i don't know how to send a message for a single individual to recognize for them to read like yall are. when its directed to me, the name is highlighted in yellow, don't know how yall do that..
[05:54] <darth> robert__ yes, ubuntu on the desktops, and something else on the servers
[05:54] <kain> yellow^
[05:54] <````bulldogg> and I don't claim to be an expert on any of it... I have plenty to learn on all of them
[05:54] <robert__> i thought ubuntu is supposed to be an all purpose linux os
[05:54] <kain> yellow: sorry my bad... been a while since i irc'd
[05:54] <BZWingZero> robert__ Ubuntu was the first I tried (other than a few minutes with knoppix) and I've loved it ever since.
[05:54] <Gun_Smoke> darth debian would be fine
[05:54] <robert__> me too
[05:54] <chaqu1> do i need to choose between using the restricted driver for ATI and XGL?
[05:54] <chaqu1> it seems like i can only use one at a time
[05:55] <````bulldogg> robert__,  and I work on OSX all day.. and I work on windows but can't stand it lol
[05:55] <darth> Gun_Smoke, well linux is not mature enough for me ;) (j/k)... i use bsd
[05:55] <robert__> from what i understand debian isn't developed very rapidly
[05:55] <SeaPhor> robert__, type the first few letters of the persons nick, and hit tab till their name is there
[05:55] <Gun_Smoke> darth there ya go..  ;)
[05:55] <robert__> windows sucks, it doesn
[05:55] <robert__> oops
[05:55] <robert__> it doesn't do what it needs to without additional software for security
[05:56] <robert__> which a decent os should do on its own anyway, imo
[05:56] <amenado> anyhow, how would an user/attacker would abuse a /tmp or /var/tmp directory? supposedly this PAM module namespace allows for poly-instantiation to have each user have each own virtual /tmp ..
[05:56] <SgtSchultz> In-Sane``: read post #317 looks like he got your card to work with compiz    http://ph.ubuntuforums.com/showthread.php?t=221320&page=32
[05:56] <Gun_Smoke> darth: in the middle of a freebsd install currently.  Finish it tomorrow night.
[05:56] <darth> lol that was fast Gun_Smoke
[05:56] <````bulldogg> right now I have ubuntu 8.04 running on my 24" aluminium iMac with everything working... I love it
[05:56] <BZWingZero> robert__: Windows has a place, and if you know what you are doing, it doesn't need extra software. I ran Vista from release for over six months without an antivirus... and came out clean when I finally got it. Twas at work, hence why I couldn't use ubuntu
[05:57] <Lobinho> Hi all.  my system monitor reports ~400MB ram usage, while the process list adds up to ~250MB.  are there many system processes not listed using memory?  what's going on?
[05:57] <darth> Gun_Smoke, dont forget about http://freebsd.org/handbook
[05:57] <In-Sane``> SgtSchultz: in ubuntuforums?
[05:57] <robert__> where do i find the ubuntu iso for mac?
[05:57] <tritium> darth: please stay on topic
[05:57] <BZWingZero> robert__: If it is an Intel mac, you can use the regular disk
[05:57] <````bulldogg> you just use the i386 one if you have an intel mac
[05:57] <Gun_Smoke> darth: I started it a long time ago..  I just walked away for a while..  I don't care to think about it right now.
[05:57] <SgtSchultz> In-Sane``: yes . i gave the link
[05:57] <Gun_Smoke> Busy
[05:58] <````bulldogg> and I use rEFIt to strap it for the boot loader
[05:58] <In-Sane``> SgtSchultz: thanks, will read it now
[05:58] <Gun_Smoke> darth: the book is up right here..
[05:58] <robert__> why can't you use ubuntu at work?
[05:58] <darth> :)
[05:58] <SeaPhor> robert__, i do
[05:58] <Gun_Smoke> robert__: Businesses have policys.
[05:58] <````bulldogg> robert__, people are probably afraid of what they don't know
[05:58] <BZWingZero> robert__: Its a windows only shop... however I've gotten permission recently to dual boot.
[05:58] <SgtSchultz> In-Sane``: i would backup xorg.conf before trying it though
[05:58] <````bulldogg> or they use some software that is windows only
[05:59] <robert__> where can i find ubuntu for mac? i have an ibook and that would be great
[05:59] <darth> .....like exchange and outlook
[05:59] <tritium> robert__: lots of places have security rules that prohibit non-approved OSes
[05:59] <BZWingZero> robert__, and I think the install base might grow as I was able to use it to recover a corrupt backup that Windows couldn't
[05:59] <darth> does linux have a decent exchange-plugin for any mail-client?
[05:59] <amenado> Lobinho-> did you forget to count the /dev/ram[0-15]  i think they also have minimums, maybe 1meg only each..not really sure how much they take
[05:59] <Gun_Smoke> darth: bsd is headed over to the desktop, I don't know if I'll dump debian from the laptop as of yet.
[06:00] <In-Sane``> SgtSchultz: hmmz, how do i backup my xorg file please?
[06:00] <darth> Gun_Smoke, depends on the brand of lappy
[06:00] <tritium> Gun_Smoke: you're offtopic
[06:00] <robert__> does anyone know where i can find the iso ubuntu download for mac?
[06:00] <BZWingZero> In-Sane``: Just make a copy of it to somewhere else so that you can restore it if needed.
[06:00] <darth> freebsd has always had insane thinkpad-support for instance
[06:00] <amenado> In-Sane``-> easy..just make a copy  cp xorg.conf  xorg.conf.older
[06:00] <In-Sane``> BZWingZero: from /var/log/Xorg.0.log?
[06:01] <SgtSchultz> In-Sane``: in terminal type      sudo cp /etc/X11/xorg.conf /etc/X11/xorg.conf.backup
[06:01] <Gun_Smoke> tritium: Not yet, and Darth, I'd be happy to try to stay with ubuntu on the laptop but I believe its time for a change.
[06:01] <BZWingZero> In-Sane``: your xorg.conf is usually located in /etc/X11/xorg.conf.
[06:01] <SeaPhor> In-Sane``,  or    sudo cp /etc/X11/xorg.conf /etc/X11/xorg.conf.bak
[06:01] <In-Sane``> SgtSchultz: ok, thanks
[06:01] <kahrytan> SgtSchultz,  You good with xorg.conf?
[06:01] <darth> whatever
[06:02] <Wrec> gnome keeps crashing. I can't believe that linux is crashing lol help please
[06:02] <In-Sane``> BZWingZero SeaPhor: yep. got it thanks guys :)
[06:02] <SgtSchultz> kahrytan: no i haven't had to mess with mine
[06:02] <kahrytan> Wrec,  thats not linux :-P
[06:02] <Wrec> kahrytan: I know lol
[06:03] <kahrytan> SgtSchultz,  i have to mess with mine. i need to define with device to use for video
[06:03] <Wrec> alsamixer seems a little buggy, and I think that might be the problem
[06:03] <SgtSchultz> kahrytan: what video card?
[06:03] <Wrec> reinstalling now
[06:03] <kahrytan> SgtSchultz, X is confusing tv tuner card for graphics card
[06:03] <Gun_Smoke> I'm burned out on this channel tonight... peace.
[06:03] <BonezAU> Hi, I have AMD64 ubuntu 8.04 and am having problems watching videos on youtube. what do I need to do? they just don't show up
[06:04] <BZWingZero> I had to make the tough decision on a recent install: compiz-fusion or full resolution on dual monitors. The graphics card didn't support drawing compiz on both. Which would you have chosen?
[06:04] <Netham45> Does ubuntu still tell you what packages to install, if you type a command that's not installed? It's not doing it for me...
[06:04] <darth> Gun_Smoke, you could always join ##freebsd.... where topics are free(!)... get it?!
[06:04] <Gun_Smoke> Oh I get it.
[06:04] <darth> ;)
[06:04] <Gun_Smoke> c u there
[06:04] <kahrytan> Netham45,  yes
[06:05] <Netham45> kahrytan,  do you know why it isn't showing it for me?
[06:05] <kahrytan> Netham45,  no :(
[06:05] <SgtSchultz> BonezAU: flashplugin-nonfree is installed. right?
[06:05] <robert__> i found a link for the download site. thanks for the answer, if someone was to reply that is, but i found it
[06:05] <BonezAU> SgtSchultz, flashplugin-nonfree is already the newest version.
[06:06] <Lobinho> amenado: what are /dev/ram[0-15]? what do they do?
[06:06] <In-Sane``> SgtSchultz: hey, should i copy his xorg.conf file and paste in mine? or just do the needed changes?
[06:07] <SeaPhor> Netham45, have you checked your System>Administration>Software sources?
[06:07] <Chrysalis> how do i look up a package info from cli?
[06:07] <darth> BZWingZero, what kind of graphics card do you have?
[06:07] <Netham45> SeaPhor, it's a server install
[06:07] <Netham45> and I havn't touched /etc/apt/sources.list
[06:07] <kahrytan> SgtSchultz, OSS could use xorg editor
[06:07] <SgtSchultz> In-Sane``: well first step would be to try his suggestion of installing the ati drivers using envyng
[06:07] <Wrec> do people find that firefox 3 beta 5 crashes their system?
[06:08] <BZWingZero> darth, on the dual monitor system? One that only supports a max texture size of 2048x2048, which doesn't work with a desktop size of 2560x1024.
[06:08] <SeaPhor> Netham45, ok, then have you updated the sources list?
[06:08] <In-Sane``> SgtSchultz: ah, ok, lemme install it
[06:08] <bullgard4> [Epiphany] Why are there two files ~/.gnome2/epiphany/bookmarks.rdf und ephy-bookmarks.xml? Would not be one enough?
[06:08] <Netham45> SeaPhor, no.
[06:08] <Netham45> I only installed it a couple of weeks ago
[06:08] <bullgard4> [Epiphany] Why are there two files ~/.gnome2/epiphany/bookmarks.rdf and ephy-bookmarks.xml? Would not be one enough?
[06:08] <darth> ohhhhh BZWingZero too bad, i feel for you :)
[06:09] <darth> compiz looks really great on dual monitors and xinerama
[06:09] <SgtSchultz> BonezAU: if you type   about:plugins  in the firefox address box on top and look for Shockwave Flash see if its enabled
[06:09] <darth> BZWingZero, that limit has nothing to do with bitdepth right?
[06:09] <darth> uhm color-bit-depth
[06:09] <BonezAU> SgtSchultz, I have Shockwave Flash (enabled) and FutureSplash player (enabled)
[06:10] <BZWingZero> darth, nope, just the card. Newer cards support large texture sizes but my little x300 doesn't
[06:10] <Arcane-Denial> As most people, I have a problem and need help ^_^
[06:10] <kron_> guys how do i uninstall the radeon video driver? 0_o
[06:10] <darth> :(
[06:10] <Arcane-Denial> Anyone up for helping me out with a grub issue?
[06:10] <BonezAU> SgtSchultz, it used to work on my PC just a few days go. Now anything that is flash just shows up completely blank. Even when I go to the adobe site the flash animation is missing all together
[06:10] <SgtSchultz> BonezAU: and when you go to youtube nothing shows?
[06:10] <darth> maybe Arcane-Denial: ask away
[06:10] <BonezAU> SgtSchultz, the page loads up with everything except the movie player itself. It's just a big blank white box
[06:11] <SgtSchultz> BonezAU: firefox 3?
[06:11] <BonezAU> SgtSchultz, Swiftfox 3
[06:11] <BZWingZero> so, darth, any idea how to get X working on a laptop. It works fine on the live CD, but not on the local install.
[06:11] <kahrytan> Can someone help me fix 'no sound' issue in Wolfstein: ET?
[06:11] <Arcane-Denial> Ok, well yesterday I installed ArchLinux on an HD I had in an ubuntu machine, the HD didnt have anything on it at the time. Well in the process I messed up the bootloader and now need to configure grub to find my ubuntu kernel I've tried copying some from online but then it just freezes at the splash screen.
[06:12] <darth> BZWingZero, sorry, i am a nvidia-person myself
[06:12] <Arcane-Denial> I need to know how to go about telling GRUb what my kernel is.
[06:12] <SgtSchultz> BonezAU: never tried swiftfox but i would think it should work
[06:12] <Arcane-Denial> title           Ubuntu 7.10, kernel 2.6.22-14-generic

[06:12] <Arcane-Denial> initrd          /boot/initrd.img-2.6.22-14-generic
[06:12] <darth> but i do know that it probably has something to do with the ATI drivers being closed source
[06:12] <Arcane-Denial> Sorry about that.
[06:12] <BonezAU> SgtSchultz, yeah, everything else works fine. And like I said, it was working a few days ago
[06:12] <darth> BZWingZero, will x not work at all?
[06:13] <Arcane-Denial> Does anyone know what I should have after Kernel?
[06:13] <kahrytan> !pastebin > Arcane-Denial,
[06:13] <BZWingZero> darth, when it starts, I get a black screen, then nothing.
[06:13] <Arcane-Denial> Yea, sorry, I didn't know.
[06:13] <Arcane-Denial> !pastebin
[06:13] <darth> BZWingZero, maybe change the driver to VESA and boot the system and see if it asks you to download ATI drivers
[06:13] <Starnestommy> Arcane-Denial: the "root=" should be on the same line as the kernel
[06:13] <Arcane-Denial> it is, just the line caries over.
[06:13] <Arcane-Denial> Its on the same line just its not on IRC
[06:14] <darth> BZWingZero, .... you know.... in /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[06:14] <BZWingZero> darth, how would I change the drivers to VESA from the command line.
[06:14] <Arcane-Denial> but I don't know what to put after Kernel can anyone help?
[06:14] <kahrytan> Can someone help me fix 'no sound' issue in Wolfstein: ET?
[06:14] <Starnestommy> Arcane-Denial: the initrd line?
[06:14] <darth> bzwing... uhm... something like sudo nano /etc/X11/xorg.conf and then look for your gfx
[06:14] <Arcane-Denial> what about it?
[06:14] <killux> hey, whats the difference between installing the nvidia drivers using ubuntu's restricted driver menu and EnvyNG?
[06:14] <Arcane-Denial> its on a differnt line.
[06:15] <SgtSchultz> BonezAU: open Edit>preferences>applications and look for Shockwave Flash file is it set to use Shockwave flash?
[06:15] <darth>  now i would advise that you cp xorg.conf xorg.conf.old
[06:15] <SeaPhor> BZWingZero, have you tried to copy the xorg.conf file on the cd to replace the file in the install?   cp /etc/X11/xorg.conf /media/disk/etc/X11/xorg.conf ? that at least gives you a starting over point, then you can use/enable the restricted drivers,
[06:15] <Starnestommy> killux: the restricted drivers are supported officially
[06:15] <darth> but since your xorg.conf is not working it doesnt really matter
[06:15] <Arcane-Denial> Starnestommy, What about the initrd line?>
[06:15] <BZWingZero> darth, there is no section on the driver in my xorg.conf
[06:15] <killux> Starnestommy: so what does EnvyNG install?
[06:15] <darth> SeaPhor, excellent... that would prolly also work
[06:15] <BZWingZero> SeaPhor: Yes, I tried that and it didn't work.
[06:15] <darth> :((((
[06:15] <Starnestommy> killux: unsupported drivers
[06:15] <darth> hehehe
[06:15] <BonezAU> SgtSchultz, this is what it looks like: http://img296.imageshack.us/my.php?image=screenshotxz2.png
[06:16] <darth> BZWingZero, ctrl + w and type ati
[06:16] <BZWingZero> Also, I use the free drivers because they support my card better than the restricted ones
[06:16] <killux> Starnestommy: I don't really understand that. Doesn't nvidia put out drivers for linux?
[06:16] <Starnestommy> Arcane-Denial: are you asking what line goes after the kernel line, or what goes on the kernel line
[06:16] <BonezAU> SgtSchultz, edit/prefs/applications - the list is completely empty. nothing in it at all
[06:16] <Arcane-Denial> Starnestommy, I'm asking what goes ON the kernel line.
[06:16] <adi1y1> i am unable to copy folders from the system drives to other drives
[06:16] <BZWingZero> darth, it didn't find anything other than "ati" in the word "configuration" in the comment at the top
[06:16] <Starnestommy> Arcane-Denial: that kernel line that you pasted looks fine
[06:17] <darth> imperial credits will do fine
[06:17] <Arcane-Denial> Well its not because it freeses on startup
[06:17] <kahrytan> Can someone help me fix 'no sound' issue in Wolfstein: ET?
[06:17] <SeaPhor> BZWingZero, did you try it while booted off of the live cd,,, if not then the os partition was mounted?
[06:17] <Arcane-Denial> The loading bar on the splash screen wont move.
[06:17] <Starnestommy> Arcane-Denial: I think something else is causing that
[06:17] <Arcane-Denial> Thats not my original kernel line.
[06:17] <adi1y1> help people,i am unable to copy folders from the system drives to other drives
[06:17] <BZWingZero> SeaPhor: i was booted to the live disk and did mount the harddrive.
[06:17] <Arcane-Denial> I copied that from an online source thinking it would work.
[06:17] <killux> Starnestommy: I thought Ubuntu's resstricted drivers were nvidias official drivers just packaged
[06:18] <SgtSchultz> BonezAU: shouldn't be empty. that is where you assign which programs and plugins to use with which file type
[06:18] <jlilly_> hey guys. I was just put on a DNSBL. Any suggestions for a virus scanner for ubuntu server (ssh access only)
[06:18] <Starnestommy> jlilly_: try clamav
[06:18] <adi1y1> any body free to help ?
[06:18] <BonezAU> SgtSchultz, Let me try and uninstall swiftfox and install it again.
[06:18] <jlilly_> Starnestommy: thx. installing now.
[06:18] <Starnestommy> Arcane-Denial: oh.  it should be something like kernel /boot/vmlinuz-(kernel-version)
[06:19] <Starnestommy> Arcane-Denial: running sudo update-grub should automatically configure it correctly
[06:20] <Janice8954> Hello guys. Does anyone know if its possible to go from Kubuntu Dapper to Hardy LTS?
[06:20] <Janice8954> without CD
[06:20] <darth> BZWingZero, doesnt x include an autoconf tool... have you tried running that?
[06:20] <BZWingZero> darth, yes, and it didn't fix the problem.
[06:20] <darth> hmmmm
[06:20] <BonezAU> SgtSchultz, I removed and reinstalled swiftfox, same problem - so I just removed swiftfox all together and am using firefox 3 now. The applications list shows up fine and also youtube is working again. thanks for the help
[06:20] <xenos> I just booted the install "cd" off my usbdrive! Bad news is that when I run the install it says it gives me an i/o error.
[06:21] <darth> something along apt-get reinstall ati-drivers ?
[06:21] <Tixer> I have a bug with gnome. for some reason, when I go to take a screenshot, it only shows my wallpaper. also, when i open gcolor2, it also only samples from my wallpaper.
[06:21] <darth> (no idea what the actual package is named)
[06:21] <SeaPhor> BZWingZero, if just booted from the live cd,, and the cmd i gave is pasted in a terminal, it will replace the xorg.conf file and the pc will boot from hdd as it does from cd,, and then you can go to System>Administration> hardware to enable the  restricted drivers
[06:21] <SgtSchultz> BonezAU: your welcome
[06:21] <OMestre> Boa Noite a todos!!
[06:21] <xenos> anyone know if i can use this ubutnu 8 to install over the internet? i remember that i would do a "net install" with gentoo and debian; don't know if that exists on ubuntu.
[06:22] <OMestre> Bom Dia a Todos!!
[06:22] <BZWingZero> SeaPhor: My card is so old, the restricted drivers don't support my card. The free drivers worked fine though
[06:22] <darth> xenos, you dont really need to, everything you need is on that cd
[06:22] <Janice8954> Is it possible to setup a server with Vanilla Dapper?
[06:22] <Gendolookin> whatup all
[06:22] <adi1y1> any body free to help ??? i am unable to copy folders from the system drives to other drives
[06:22] <Gendolookin> anybody know where i can get a linux job?
[06:22] <Alpha> xenos: the CD is a full install
[06:22] <bobbie4> I just bought a Samsung YP-U3 MP3 player (it also plays ogg vorbis files, yay!!)  Anyways I was wondering, should I keep using the MTP or should I just reflash it with firmware from Samsung that will convert it into a MSC (usb mass storage device)?
[06:22] <BZWingZero> Hmm, interesting, I am trying to boot to the XBMC thumbdrive edition (Linux based) and it's X keeps returning Fatal Server Error: No screens found.
[06:23] <blunbig> hey
[06:23] <blunbig> anyone here
[06:23] <xenos> Alpha: that tells me nothing. i just stated that the cd crashes during the install due to some error of files being currpt.
[06:23] <darth> it's insane how much i like ubuntu
[06:23] <josephj_> what what in the butt?
[06:23] <xenos> Alpha: off the usb drive
[06:23] <adi1y1> i am unable to copy folders from the system drives to other drives
[06:23] <blunbig> UBUNTU FTW!
[06:23] <Janice8954> Server?
[06:23] <darth> i mean... seriously!!!!
[06:23] <Janice8954> Anyone know how to setup a server?
[06:23] <Starnestommy> adi1y1: did you set the right permissions for those other drives?
[06:23] <Alpha> xenos: then download it again, and check the hashes?
[06:23] <SeaPhor> BZWingZero, but is this a newer MB, or is it a laptop?? sata HDD, old bios, lots of factors, need to narrow down to 1 area]
[06:23] <darth> blunbig :)
[06:24] <blunbig> is the drives in different file formats
[06:24] <blunbig> such as ntfc or ext3
[06:24] <adi1y1> Starnestommy: i was able to copy day before yesterday
[06:24] <blunbig> ...
[06:24] <blunbig> i dont know
[06:24] <Starnestommy> adi1y1: what changed between then and now?
[06:24] <darth> i just made an addition to sudo so my user can mount truecrypt volumes :)
[06:24] <blunbig> CAN ANYONE SEE WHAT IM TYPING?
[06:24] <BZWingZero> SeaPhor, this is an old latpop, IDE harddrive, Mobility Radeon 9000. Dell Latitude D600... about as standard a set of components a laptop can have.
[06:24] <Starnestommy> blunbig: yes.
[06:24] <blunbig> thx
[06:24] <darth> NO BLUNBIG!!!!
[06:25] <Starnestommy> blunbig: and you don't need to use caps in here
[06:25] <adi1y1> Starnestommy: today when i tried copying only some of the files are copied not all
[06:25] <darth> WE CAN'T! ;)
[06:25] <xenos> Alpha: Ignore dude. seriously. thanks.
[06:25] <blunbig> sry
[06:25] <Starnestommy> adi1y1: did you get any error messages?
[06:25]  * blunbig is so very sorry
[06:25] <adi1y1> Starnestommy: a new HDD and thats a secondary HDD , it some NTFS drives
[06:26] <darth> blunbig, just flip your compiz a few times, guaranteed to make your mood better
[06:26] <blunbig> omg ur right
[06:26] <darth> lol i was humming the other day when i booted my laptop
[06:26] <blunbig> <3 ubuntu 4 life
[06:26] <darth> i never used to do that when used windows
[06:26] <darth> i was more like "rrrrrr work!!!!"
[06:26] <adi1y1> Starnestommy: no error messages,i tried mounting those ntfs drives but i couldnt so i deleted all the partitions.
[06:26] <BZWingZero> SeaPhor: And I did run ubuntu on it exclusively from 6.10-7.10. Only since the most recent wipe/install has it stopped working.
[06:27] <SeaPhor> BZWingZero, where does it fail?
[06:27] <adi1y1> Starnestommy: now i am unable to copy .iso .backup .sql to other drives
[06:27] <blunbig> anyone ever read the stuff on www.bash.org?
[06:27] <Starnestommy> adi1y1: are those very large files?
[06:27] <Arcane-Denial> I have a question guys, which version of ubuntu would run best on an old 500Mhz PIII with 384RAM?
[06:27] <SeaPhor> BZWingZero, during the boot, after grub menu?
[06:28] <Starnestommy> Arcane-Denial: probably xubuntu
[06:28] <tux69> Hi everyone! Just did a clean install of Hardy Heron on my mom's computer. Unfortunately somehow the backup didn't work correctly, and now all the family pics are missing :-( My mom is going to kill me. Is there something I can do to recover them? I reformatted the hard disk with the Ubuntu CD.
[06:28] <adi1y1> .iso is large ,but .sql and .backup are less than 1mb
[06:28] <blunbig> Arcane: 8.1
[06:28] <Arcane-Denial> Kubuntu runs the KDE right?
[06:28] <darth> yes Arcane-Denial
[06:28] <blunbig> oops
[06:28] <blunbig> 8.04
[06:28] <Arcane-Denial> Which would be better for that machine? Kubuntu or just ubuntu?
[06:28] <Starnestommy> adi1y1: did you have the right permissions set on them?
[06:28] <blunbig> use the alt disc
[06:28] <Starnestommy> Arcane-Denial: what about Xubuntu?
[06:28] <BZWingZero> SeaPhor: I get the Ubuntu logo fine . As soon as it goes to load X the screen goes to black as if it changing the screen resolution, then shuts off the backlight and it just never comes back. Ctrl+Alt+F2 doesn't bring up a terminal.
[06:29] <killux> I am having a problem with my nvidia driver. I installed it via ubuntu's restricted drivers. If I use EnvyNG do you think it may work or is it the same thing?
[06:29] <blunbig> the alt disc doesnt kill ur ram during the install
[06:29] <SgtSchultz> In-Sane``: still there?
[06:29] <Arcane-Denial> I don't have a copy of it on hand and downloading one might take a while on my connection.
[06:29] <killux> what about just downloading it right off nvidias site
[06:29] <zhoupp> I want to dump a site's directory using wget -r. But how could I forbid wget from following the [Parent Directory] link?
[06:29] <adi1y1> Starnestommy: i have not changed anything
[06:29] <Starnestommy> killux: that isn't guaranteed to work
[06:29] <tj83> tux69.. I hear that if all you did was delete the patition possibly.. but formatted... afraid i think your out of luck
[06:30] <In-Sane``> SgtSchultz: yes, I installed envyng and I am installing the drivers manually now, 44% so far.
[06:30] <tux69> tj83: ay
[06:30] <killux> Starnestommy: well ubuntu's driver isnt working, so will envyNG/nvidia's official driver possibly work?
[06:30] <killux> or are they all the same?
[06:30] <Starnestommy> killux: try the envyng one first
[06:30] <adi1y1> Starnestommy:  what do  i do now"?
[06:31] <nickolaus> How do I log into a non local network computer via ssh
[06:31] <Starnestommy> adi1y1: I'm not sure
[06:31] <adi1y1> ok
[06:31] <SeaPhor> BZWingZero, have you tried, at the grub menu, hit "E" and scroll down to kernel line and remove quiet and splash?
[06:31] <Starnestommy> nickolaus: the same way as on a local one.  ssh user@hostname
[06:31] <tj83> tux69... look for Hiren'sBootCd... there are some recovery tools on the disk.. caution though... only use the disk recovery tools there are utility apps on the disk that can render your motherboad useless... you are warned
[06:31] <SgtSchultz> In-Sane``: ok i was just going to suggest doing a copy paste of that post and print it out. he mentions he got a blank screen at first and those instruction would be good to have
[06:31] <BZWingZero> SeaPhor: I have not, I will try that now.
[06:31] <adi1y1> Starnestommy: do you know any channels where i can solve this problem ?
[06:32] <Starnestommy> adi1y1: this one or ##linux, maybe
[06:32] <SeaPhor> BZWingZero, won't hurt,, and i have some to add if that gets anywhere
[06:32] <adi1y1> thank you ...
[06:32] <tux69> tj83: thanks, i'll try that.
[06:32] <tj83> tux69... its possible you may get "some" files.. dont expect to recover the drive its not going to happen
[06:33] <In-Sane``> SgtSchultz: i did, I have a print out of the post already. I will read from it if i got that blank screen, but do you suggest me to copy his xorg file and paste in mine or just change the device section , monitor and screen section?
[06:33] <nickolaus> starnestommy so to log into a computer on two different networks I use the same local ip's
[06:33] <nickolaus> ?
[06:33] <tux69> tj83: ok :-/
[06:34] <BZWingZero> SeaPhor: Ok, It came up with an error: Could not start X due to some internal error. Then it gave me a prompt
[06:34] <tj83> tux69.. I dont know how they work.. but i have gotten random files back from like 3 partitions back.. although i havent messed with it for years.. good luck
[06:34] <nickolaus> starnestommy or do I use a different Ip?
[06:34] <Sindacious> Are there any voice simulator's for ubuntu?
[06:34] <SgtSchultz> In-Sane``: i would just edit yours like he says because some hardware in his computer is probably different than yours
[06:35] <nickolaus> starnestommy I was told I had to have the local ip and the wan Ip.
[06:35] <Starnestommy> nickolaus: is the other computer on a LAN?
[06:35] <nickolaus> starnestommy no.
[06:35] <nickolaus> starnestommy one is in another state.
[06:35] <In-Sane``> SgtSchultz: yep, you're right. well, I am waiting for the driver download to finish, will see if i can get it working, still 35% to go
[06:36] <Starnestommy> nickolaus: then you just need its IP.  It should have just one
[06:36] <nickolaus> starnestommy do I need both lan and wan ip's?
[06:36] <Starnestommy> nickolaus: just the WAN IP
[06:36] <nickolaus> starnestommy thanks much ;)
[06:37] <Starnestommy> nickolaus: but if it is behind a LAN, that computer's router needs to forward port 22 to it
[06:37] <neosaki> Also, nickolaus, you need the proper ports forwarded to the PC you're trying to SSH into if it has a firewall.
[06:37] <neosaki> Which it certainly should.
[06:37] <desolate> should i go with 64bit linux or 32?
[06:37] <nickolaus> starnestommy how do I do that?
[06:38] <sileni> hey guys i have ubuntu hardy heron, i installed jdk but its in my desktop
[06:38] <sileni> where should i move it
[06:38] <sileni> and how to set it to the right path?
[06:38] <nickolaus> starnestommy do I just forward port 22 on the router?
[06:38] <SeaPhor> BZWingZero, ok, 2 directions here,,, i;ll go this way first,,, repeat and remove quiet and splash, and add  noapic apic=none   and if not then repeat and remove quiet and splash and add    vga=771    all exactly as typed
[06:38] <Starnestommy> nickolaus: you need to get the owner of that computer's router to forward port 22 to that computer
[06:38] <Starnestommy> nickolaus: but it that compurer is not on a LAN, you don't need to
[06:38] <nickolaus> it is.
[06:38] <tux69> tj83: just found http://www.cgsecurity.org/wiki/PhotoRec Guess I'll try that.
[06:38] <nickolaus> starnestommy but not on mine.
[06:39] <nickolaus> starnestommy how do I forward port 22?
[06:39] <Starnestommy> nickolaus: do you own that computer and its router?
[06:39] <nickolaus> Yes.
[06:40] <Starnestommy> nickolaus: check your router's instructions for port forwarding
[06:40] <tj83> tux69 looks potential
[06:40] <nickolaus> starnestommy okay so it's just typical port forwarding?
[06:40] <anirudh0> nickolaus, ssh can do that..google for "ssh port forwarding"
[06:40] <Starnestommy> nickolaus: essentially, yes
[06:41] <tj83> tux69.. do you have USB media to back them up to?
[06:41] <UBUNTUJAY123> how i uninstall flashplayer 10
[06:42] <UBUNTUJAY123> i installed to checkit out and cant seem to uninstall it
[06:42] <dan__> I am having a problem with permissions in my home directory and cannot execute or file share my files.  Is there a way to make my "home" directory so I dont need root permissions?
[06:42] <UBUNTUJAY123> help plz
[06:42] <Starnestommy> UBUNTUJAY123: it should come with instructions for uninstalling it
[06:42] <SgtSchultz> In-Sane``: do you know how to restore your old xorg.conf in case something goes wrong?
[06:42] <UBUNTUJAY123> it didnt
[06:42] <tux69> tj83: I have my laptop here and an external usb drive case. I'll put the drive from my mom's desktop into that case and connect it to my laptop.
[06:43] <Starnestommy> UBUNTUJAY123: then find out which files it installed and what changes it made, then remove the files and revert its changes
[06:43] <cee> tuu
[06:44] <UbuntuNix> why each time when i restart my ubuntu..system do rountine check of drive :/dev/sad5 .its that like scandisk? i did proper shutdown! ..why?
[06:44] <tj83> tux69 sounds like a plan
[06:44] <tux69> tj83: Wish me luck :-$
[06:44] <cee> xdfuu
[06:44] <najua> #jammaah
[06:44] <dan__> I am having a problem with permissions in my home directory and cannot execute or file share my files.  Is there a way to make my "home" directory so I dont need root permissions?
[06:45] <theacolyte> anyone have any experience running ubuntu with a Tyan Tempest i5000XT S2696 mobo?
[06:45] <adi1y1> Starnestommy: copying is successful if i use cp -R sour dest
[06:45] <UbuntuNix> dan__: better use terminal to execute ur files.. use su command..
[06:45] <Starnestommy> dan__: sudo chown -R <username>:<username> /home/<username>
[06:46] <nickolaus> starnestommy okay, I have the port forwarded now ssh user@LAN Ip@WAN ip ?
[06:46] <nickolaus> starnestommy is that correct?
[06:46] <Starnestommy> nickolaus: no, just ssh<EMAIL_ADDRESS>[06:46] <C0_24_SMG_MAU> ce_supel
[06:46] <adi1y1> Starnestommy: why i cant copy the folder from explorer ?
[06:47] <dan__> Starnestommy: thanks let me try that
[06:47] <nickolaus> starnestommy but both computers are behind LAN's
[06:47] <Starnestommy> adi1y1: windows explorer?
[06:47] <nickolaus> starnestommy multiple computers have the same WAN ip.
[06:47] <Starnestommy> nickolaus: but the forwarding makes the router take it and automatically pass it to the computer behind the lan
[06:47] <BZWingZero> SeaPhor: Ok, tried both and they both did the same thing. As soon as it tried to start X, the screen went black, the backlight shut off, and nothing.
[06:48] <robert__> what's yalls thoughts on zenwalk? i'm using ubuntu right now and am thinking about using zenwalk
[06:48] <SeaPhor> BZWingZero, if it will boot all the way to desktop on the live cd, why not boot from live cd and    cp /etc/X11/xorg.conf /media/disk/etc/X11/xorg.conf
