[06:55] <Ademan> the second link should be about making your own
[06:55] <chalcedony> does restarting X restart Xchat and other things?
[06:55] <bod_> Ademan, thats all very well,. but that guide doesnt work for gutsy
[06:55] <Ademan> chalcedony: yes unfortunately
[06:55] <Ademan> bod_: oh, sorry, that was all i had lol
[06:55] <chalcedony> i might as well just restart everyting and do update etc
[06:55] <cmec> ok
[06:55] <cmec> i will try
[06:56] <bod_> Ademan, no worries,.,.ive been scratching my head for hours
[06:56] <soldats> so you have a bald spot on your head now :)
[06:56] <Ademan> bod_: i doubt you'd get any more relevant answers but there IS ##linux and #debian, just don't let them know you're not on debian in #debian... they're angry people lol
[06:57] <bod_> soldats, im gettin there m8,. any ideas on my prob?
[06:57] <soldats> no but look at ademans post
[06:57] <bod_> Ademan, i dunno what debian is so ,.,.eh,,.,.
[06:57] <speeddemon8803> !debian
[06:57] <ubotu> Ubuntu and Debian are closely related. Ubuntu builds on the foundations of Debian architecture and infrastructure, with a different community and release process. See http://www.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/relationship - Remember, !repositories meant for Debian should NOT be used on Ubuntu!
[06:57] <bod_> soldats, be more specific plz
[06:58] <bod_> speeddemon8803, why thankyou Mr Demon
[06:58] <speeddemon8803> No problem :)
[06:58] <soldats> bod_, you can go to the ##linux channel and ask there or gop to the #debian channel and ask there
[06:58] <bod_> soldats, oh,. you mean go away and ask somewhere else?,.,.;) ok
[06:58] <soldats> you might get better answers
[06:58] <bod_> lol  ;)
[06:59] <Ademan> bod_: debian is another linux distro, like ubuntu (in fact debian is sorta like the "parent" of ubuntu because ubuntu is based on it, but debian people tend to be crankier than ubuntu people)
[06:59] <soldats> bod_, only because noones else is really here right now
[06:59] <Gartral> ijust installed 7.10, and it wont update
[07:00] <bod_> soldats, Ademan, thanks for your help guys

[07:00] <soldats> np
[07:00] <Ademan> bod_: np, hope it actually helps lol

[07:03] <sunogbaga> hi can somebody help me install xubuntu on an old laptop without cd and network
[07:03] <ThipThip> I'm having some video problems.  When I try to play a video in mplayer, vlc, miro, etc, I get yellow and pink lines where there should be overlay.  In VLC, I am able to fix this problem by changing the output module to x11.  Is there a way to change the configuration of video display more generally?

[07:19] <Gartral> whats theroom fav irc client?
[07:19] <cube_> bod_ i am not..
[07:19] <astro76> Gartral: the popular ones seem to be xchat, and irssi for command line
[07:19] <bod_> cube_, ok,. just a suggestion
[07:19] <bod_> bitchx
[07:20] <cube_> xchat?
[07:20] <Shinobi> Hi, is it possible to create a new partition in the primary master disk of my ubuntu box and install windows on it and run a bual booting system?
[07:20] <sunogbaga> phuzion, your not helping
[07:20] <speeddemon8803> xchat is good, im currently using it now
[07:20] <bod_> cube_,  no its actually called bitchx
[07:20] <bod_> speeddemon8803, me too
[07:20] <cube_> bod_ i was suggesting another "room fav"
[07:20] <bluefoxx> bod_, lol, when i tried a installing onto a sata drive i was using a 6.10 cd and it didnt like it, so i traded it fro the u-ide i have now, then once i filled it up[under 6 monthes] i got a second sata drive[im running upt to date now] and it turns out a older sound card fried my on-board sata or the cable[i found a short in it]
[07:20] <bod_> cube_, damn,.,.sorry, i keep doing this,,.,.my bad
[07:21] <raybdbomb> is there a reason there is not a ventrilo-server package?
[07:21] <speeddemon8803> i love the highlight features, and it kinda reminds me of the windows mIRC in a way...or xircon
[07:21] <bluefoxx> Gartral, i use all three, xchat irssi and pidgin/gaim
[07:21] <goudkov> i just installed gutsy and when i source a file in /bin/sh, it says the file is not found. does anybody know what might cause this?
[07:21] <bod_> bluefoxx, unlucky,.,. sata drives are ace!
[07:21] <Shinobi> bod_,  Hi, is it possible to create a new partition in the primary master disk of my ubuntu box and install windows on it and run a bual booting system?
[07:22] <astro76> goudkov: what do you mean "source a file in /bin/sh"? what are you doing exactly?
[07:22] <bod_> Shinobi, yes,.,. dont ask me how, but the answer is yes
[07:22] <amigappc> *cry* i only want sound out of my boxes ... and linux dont want play it ...
[07:22] <goudkov> astro76: sourcing a file in shell. how can it be any more exact than that??
[07:22] <bluefoxx> Gartral, depends on what im doing at the moment, if im using firefox i use irssi, if im using a code/terminal based program i use irssi or xchat, if im doing nothing else i use pidgin
[07:22] <bod_> amigappc, havent you been here for more than a day with that prob?
[07:22] <Shinobi> bod_, hehe ok thats all i wanted to know...but can u point me to where i can find out how to reconfigure grub
[07:22] <speeddemon8803> Shinobi, yes,, you would have to reconfigure grub...have no clue about the rest..but yes
[07:22] <cube_> peter: having any luck? i can also tell you how to open your xorg.conf if you need it
[07:23] <astro76> goudkov: what command are you using?
[07:23] <bod_> Shinobi, ur here,. ask about
[07:23] <goudkov> astro76: .
[07:23] <peter120980> ok how do i get my xorg file, im installing ubuntu on another pc
[07:23] <astro76> goudkov: that's not a command, it's a link to the current directory
[07:23] <goudkov> astro76: rofl. ok, thanks.
[07:23] <bluefoxx> bod_, i got it working once, the cable was twisted in some funny way that it worked once, so i tried to install the winxp media center copy i have and it didnt like the drive, infact it bluescreened lol
[07:23] <goudkov> anybody else knows what i'm talking about?
[07:23] <bod_> !grub | Shinobi

[07:24] <amigappc> bod_: actualy only today ... but two month ago ... yeah
[07:24] <quaal> whats a good usb soundcard
[07:24] <astro76> goudkov: if you would explain what you are doing, you might think you are being clear but you are not
[07:24] <cube_> peter in terminal type : cd / then cd /etc then cd /X11
[07:24] <speeddemon8803> sweet, i didnt realize ubotu had that extra info in it
[07:24] <bod_> bluefoxx, i hate blue screens,. in winbugs that usually means microbugs is trying to configure something,.,.which always ends up in more bugs
[07:24] <Ububegin> hei guys, does ubuntu comes pre-installed apache
[07:24] <goudkov> astro76: ok, you can source a file and execute it in the current shell process. the command for that is .
[07:24] <cube_> then type in gedit xorg.conf
[07:25] <bod_> amigappc, hope you get it sorted
[07:25] <goudkov> astro76: if you don't know that, you can't possibly help me.
[07:25] <bod_> Ububegin, no
[07:25] <speeddemon8803> Ubuntu server can though
[07:25] <astro76> goudkov: don't be a jerk
[07:25] <cube_> quaal: a cheap logitech one works fine for me
[07:25] <bod_> Ububegin, but 2 secs in Syaptic can get it for you
[07:25] <goudkov> astro76: i'm not.
[07:25] <Shinobi> speeddemon8803, what should i use to create the partition?
[07:25] <speeddemon8803> Gparted
[07:25] <astro76> goudkov: so you are typing just . ?
[07:25] <unknownuser> I love ubuntu
[07:25] <speeddemon8803> live cd
[07:25] <Ububegin> bod_ : thanks ...
[07:26] <bod_> Ububegin,  no probs
[07:26] <amigappc> bod_: yeah ... i know ... its a HDA-intel ... its installed .... but no sound... its crazy
[07:26] <astro76> goudkov: or you are trying to execute a script with a shebang at the top that's #!/bin/sh ?
[07:26] <cube_> peter: cd /etc/X11
[07:26] <bluefoxx> bod_, lol, i ran a laptop that had windows 98 oe on it and it bluescreened 12 times the first day i had it, then my school messed up the wifi cad i had in it and the os crashed
[07:26] <astro76> goudkov: please be clear
[07:26] <speeddemon8803> gparted can actually be used to create a multitude of different file systems
[07:26] <goudkov> astro76: of, if you do "sh somefile" it will interpret the file in a separate shell process. if you do ". somefile" then it will interpret and execute it in the current process
[07:26] <goudkov> astro76: do you understand the difference and what i'm taking about?
[07:26] <cube_> peter: type cd /etc/X11 into terminal and the type gedit xorg.conf
[07:26] <bod_> bluefoxx, lol,.,. but seriously,.,. ul get !ot by someone soon
[07:26] <peter120980> ok it wont let me do gedit but i can open it using nano
[07:26] <user11_011> does anyone know about setting a yahoo account on pidgin. why is japan shown in advanced tab??? i amon ubuntu 7.10
[07:27] <bluefoxx> bod_, lol
[07:27] <bod_> peter120980, sudo gedit
[07:27] <raybdbomb> http://www.howtoforge.com/ventrilo_voice_communication_server_ubuntu_feisty_amd64 sudo apt-get install ia32-libs linux32
[07:27] <cube_> and copy and paste to pastebin along with your xorg log
[07:27] <raybdbomb> says You are about to do something potentially harmful.
[07:27] <raybdbomb> To continue type in the phrase 'Yes, do as I say!'
[07:27] <astro76> goudkov: yes, I do now...
[07:27] <raybdbomb> gah
[07:27] <goudkov> astro76: well, it seems to be broken in my install of gutsy
[07:27] <sluggo> goudkov: are you sure the filename is right? try ls filename instead of . filename to be sure
[07:28] <goudkov> sluggo: yes. it works if i'm in bash, but if i run bash through /bin/sh which should still be bash, sourcing doesn't work any more
[07:28] <goudkov> try it with any file
[07:28] <goudkov> create an empty file. then do ". that_file" in bash
[07:28] <goudkov> then do
[07:28] <goudkov> /bin/sh
[07:28] <raybdbomb> why is it harmfule to apt-get install linux32 on my amd64 system
[07:28] <astro76> goudkov: the problem is sh is linked to dash in Ubuntu, not bash
[07:28] <goudkov> and in that process do the same
[07:28] <bod_> !enter | goudkov
[07:28] <ubotu> goudkov: Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation!
[07:29] <goudkov> astro76: ah, let me check. i thought ash
[07:29] <sluggo> goudkov: /bin/sh is symlinked to dash
[07:29] <bod_> raybdbomb, because its a different distro
[07:29] <speeddemon8803> its not harmful raybdbomb, but you wouldnt be using your full potential of your processor.
[07:29] <goudkov> sluggo: yep, now that makes sense.
[07:29] <astro76> goudkov: usually changing it to bash fixes most peoples problems
[07:29] <goudkov> astro76: that's what i'm going to do.
[07:29] <raybdbomb> bod_ so you're saying it would overwrite the linux64 libs?
[07:29] <speeddemon8803> ive done it without reprocussions..but i might have just got lucky :/
[07:30] <bod_> raybdbomb, possibly,. im not sure,. are you using synaptic?
[07:30] <cube_> peter: hello? have you pastebin?
[07:30] <raybdbomb> sudo apt-get install
[07:30] <peter120980> not yet, i jsut cant figure how to do it
[07:30] <raybdbomb> guided from this: http://www.howtoforge.com/ventrilo_voice_communication_server_ubuntu_feisty_amd64
[07:30] <astro76> goudkov: and as an aside we often start troubleshooting from a very low level in this channel, but we know what we're talking about ;)
[07:30] <bod_> raybdbomb, on one of the last lines, does it say anything will be removed?
[07:31] <bod_> astro76, WOW!!!! you go man!!!
[07:31] <raybdbomb> bod_ yes, it says util-linux will be removed
[07:31] <goudkov> astro76: i see. that makes sense. i just spent two hours convincing my dsl provider that i'm not a moron and that the problem is on their end. so i'm a bit jumpy :)
[07:31] <astro76> goudkov: hah, yeah telcos are horrid
[07:31] <peter120980> i wont let me use gedit
[07:31] <bod_> raybdbomb, i dunno what that is,.so,,.,.,. id do it anyway lol,. biut thats me,.
[07:32] <unknownuser> could you please unplug the modem, even if you have already done it
[07:32] <raybdbomb> You are about to do something potentially harmful.
[07:32] <raybdbomb> To continue type in the phrase 'Yes, do as I say!'
[07:32] <raybdbomb> heh
[07:32] <goudkov> well, anyway thanks. i'm going to link sh to bash. that should take care of it.
[07:32] <bod_> raybdbomb, do it, do it, do it
[07:32] <raybdbomb> well, oooook
[07:32] <goudkov> hmm, in dapper it was linked to bash. why the change?
[07:33] <bod_> raybdbomb, no wait dont!!!!!
[07:33] <raybdbomb> haha too late!
[07:33] <astro76> goudkov: to be "lighter on resources" I think
[07:33] <bod_> raybdbomb, lol,.,. im jokin,.,.do it
[07:33] <goudkov> astro76: ahh, well, it will break some scripts out there :)
[07:33] <astro76> goudkov: it does indeed
[07:33] <astro76> I've seen several examples
[07:34] <astro76> but often those are using bashisms while claiming to be sh compatible
[07:34] <goudkov> it broke most of my work stuff because i put /bin/sh everywhere and . as a means of including redundant stuff
[07:34] <peter120980> i typed "cd /etc/X11" then "sudo gedit xorg.conf" and i get "run `gedit --help`....."
[07:34] <speeddemon8803> If you want a light ubuntu distro i suggest ubuntu studio (joking as studio is known for being a dvd sized distro)
[07:35] <bod_> peter120980, thats odd,. that command is fine
[07:35] <peter120980> i have been using nano to edit the files
[07:35] <bod_> peter120980, use a different text editor
[07:36] <astro76> peter120980: you should use gksudo instead of sudo for gui programs including gedit
[07:36] <bod_> peter120980, sudo nano xorg.conf
[07:36] <Sevensins> Hello all ... can someone tell me if there is a snapshots or something like this of the latest alsadriver firmmeware and so on available on ubuntu
[07:36] <peter120980> ok i did sudo nano xorg.conf and i have the file up
[07:36] <bod_> peter120980, now tinker to your hearts content
[07:37] <Sevensins> im gambling around with a script to automatically download and install the whole alsa system but i dont know where to find the latest drivers
[07:37] <Sevensins> one thing if found out is that the susue
[07:37] <unknownuser> peter: I am sure you knew this but you should backup before you change stuff
[07:37] <Sevensins> suseguys have really new firmeware but i think ubuntu must have st like this too
[07:37] <bod_> peter120980, have u made a backup of xorg.conf?
[07:38] <Sevensins> can someone give me a hinz or link where to download the latest firmeware aand driver for alsa
[07:38] <bod_> !repeat | Sevensins
[07:38] <ubotu> Sevensins: Don't feel ignored and repeat your question quickly; if nobody knows your answer, nobody will answer you. You can search https://help.ubuntu.com or http://wiki.ubuntu.com while you wait. Also see !patience
[07:39] <peter120980> yes i have a backup made, i have been tinkering with it but i have no idea what to do now, im at a complete loss
[07:39] <bod_> peter120980, what are you trying to do?
[07:39] <peter120980> load the gnome gui
[07:39] <Sevensins> yep ve been seaarching but im not satisfied with what i found
[07:39] <bod_> peter120980, do you mean x?
[07:40] <astro76> Sevensins: why do you need the latest alsa?
[07:40] <zombie_monkey> I have some weridness with the package system
[07:40] <bod_> shoot
[07:40] <Sevensins> in my case i use a EMu 0404 and i got i up and running with suses snapshot the script works fine but i want the latest hotest drivers
[07:40] <peter120980> yes maybe thats it
[07:40] <Sevensins> an emu
[07:40] <zombie_monkey> In update there is the package hal-cups-utils that is for update but I can't check it
[07:41] <Sevensins> excuse me im german and not used to writing so fast
[07:41] <peter120980> whatever the gui is i cant display it
[07:41] <astro76> Sevensins: wanting the latest hotest is not a good enough excuse ;)
[07:41] <astro76> we support released versions in here
[07:41] <bod_> sudo apt-get install hal-cups-utils        zombie_monkey
[07:41] <zombie_monkey> bod_: it's already installed, but there's a nwerer version
[07:41] <ganesh> how to upldate  the grub when the filesystem copied from live cd
[07:42] <Sevensins> hmm what i thought actually astro and m8s but isnt there any advice you can give a poor sound enthausiast
[07:42] <bod_> zombie_monkey, eerrrmm,. theres a command,. i cant remember,.,. have a look at     man aptitude
[07:42] <zombie_monkey> bod_: ok
[07:42] <bod_> peter120980, type    startx
[07:42] <astro76> Sevensins: maybe see if the #ubuntu-studio people can help
[07:42] <Sevensins> thx m8
[07:42] <Sevensins> im gonna go there
[07:42] <Sevensins> if they help me i ll make the script available
[07:42] <astro76> Sevensins: don't expect that channel to be as active as this one though ;)
[07:43] <astro76> good luck
[07:43] <Sevensins> well no problem and thx
[07:43] <bod_> astro76, whats the command to update a package?
[07:44] <Sevensins> the script actually works like the shit now but i want community based installations who knows if suse will still bbe there tomorrow
[07:44] <bod_> !language | Sevensins
[07:44] <Sevensins> did i say or think that ? :)
[07:44] <ubotu> Sevensins: Please watch your language and topic to help keep this channel family friendly.
[07:44] <astro76> bod_: a single package? not sure usually you just update everything with apt-get upgrade
[07:44] <Sevensins> yep
[07:44] <bod_> astro76,  will that install updates?
[07:45] <astro76> bod_: yes of course you would do apt-get update first to get the updated package lists first
[07:45] <bod_> astro76, ty
[07:45] <zombie_monkey> bod_: i figured it out, the new version of the package depends on a gnome version of a program, and the old one depends on a gtk version
[07:45] <astro76> bod_: so an update would be sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade
[07:46] <bod_> astro76, cheers
[07:46] <zombie_monkey> bod_: they depend on different packages that conflict
[07:46] <peter120980> ok i typed startx and i got Fatal server error, server is already running for display 0
[07:46] <bod_> zombie_monkey, ah,.,.damn
[07:47] <astro76> peter120980: it was already running, do: sudo invoke-rc.d gdm restart

[07:48] <JimmyDee_> ooooops
[07:48] <peter120980> i jsut get a black screen
[07:48] <JimmyDee_> wrong channel
[07:48] <unknownuser> lol
[07:48] <phuzion> what are good codecs to get HD video working effectively in Ubuntu, preferably with VLC
[07:48] <astro76> I had a feeling
[07:49] <bod_> !lol | unknownuser
[07:49] <ubotu> unknownuser: Please don't use "LOL" and "OMG" and so forth on a regular basis. This is IRC, not IM, and using those lines on their own is not required, and it is rather annoying to the rest of the people in the channel; thanks.
[07:49] <astro76> phuzion: with ubuntu-restricted-extras and w32codecs you shouldn't need anything else
[07:49] <phuzion> so just apt-get those?
[07:49] <astro76> phuzion: yes, but w32codecs is in medibuntu
[07:49] <astro76> !medibuntu | phuzion

[07:53] <gsuveg> anyone familiar with gpg keyserver setup? i need install one, and all package ist from 2003
[07:54] <astro76> gsuveg: I'm not sure keyserve technology has advanced that much, mit seems to be using the same one ;)
[07:54] <astro76> peter120980: no sorry I'm not sure what your issue is and it's way too late to get involved ;)
[07:55] <gsuveg> astro76, do you know some documentation?
[07:55] <astro76> gsuveg: not about keyservers no
[07:55] <gsuveg> astro76, ok.
[07:56] <Gartral> agf
[07:56] <Gartral> hello?
[07:56] <Gartral> ahhh
[07:57] <astro76> Gartral: I really have no idea Gartral
[07:57] <astro76> Gartral: try a apt-get install -f, or a fix broken packages in synaptic?
[07:57] <onats> is hibernate/suspend already fully supported/fixed?
[07:57] <Gartral> it doesnt report broken!
[07:58] <gsuveg> astro76, hmm. i find a onak.. with bzr repo ;)
[07:59] <Gartral> astro76: yea, its returning the same error with the fix cmd

[08:05] <Doctor-Who> Hello!
[08:05] <ubotu> barbedsaber: Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu!
[08:05] <barbedsaber> oh, so there are people here
[08:05] <peter120980> unknownuser_ thanks for the link but i have tried pretty much everything on the post, i can find quite a bit on ATI cards with this problem but i have nvidia cards
[08:07] <peter120980> im thinking linux maybe just isnt for me, i been going round in circles for 2 days solid now, trawling forums etc
[08:08] <b00> wtf?
[08:08] <b00> i got banned
[08:08] <unknownuser_> peter: it can be trying at times, but hopefully we can get you fixed up
[08:08] <peter120980> problem is im so new to linux i dont really know what im doing
[08:08] <DEXTREX> Is there a channel that gives learning tutorials on ubuntu?
[08:09] <DEXTREX> Im new to linux too.
[08:09] <josh__> any talk on when the flash plugin will be fixed ?
[08:09] <peter120980> need me to explain my problem or did you see it earlier?
[08:09] <barbedsaber> Dextrex, what are you looking for specificly, google is usefull for that, try the howto section of the forums.
[08:10] <zetheroo> would you say Adobe PS is more resource hungry than the GIMP?
[08:10] <barbedsaber> please explain
[08:10] <unknownuser_> peter: from what I understand you have gdm on 0
[08:10] <DEXTREX> I dont really know anything to do with terminal..
[08:10] <barbedsaber> zetroo, probobly, never seen them side by side
[08:10] <gsuveg> zetheroo, parton?
[08:10] <barbedsaber> hang on a second
[08:10] <zetheroo> gsuveg: huh?
[08:11] <peter120980> from the message i got yes, but i just get a blank screen
[08:11] <barbedsaber> soory, all my bookmarks are on my other computer
[08:11] <wyclif> hi everyone
[08:11] <russ> Dextrex, try reading the man page for bash
[08:11] <unknownuser_> peter: I had a similar problem, give me a sec to see if I can't remember what I did.
[08:11] <barbedsaber> yeah type man, and then a command that you have heard of
[08:12] <DEXTREX> Okay russ
[08:12] <gsuveg> anyone use cream? i need add a filetype to php. its works with simple vim but with cream not :(
[08:12] <zetheroo> gsuveg: whats parton?
[08:12] <nikwad> Hi!
[08:12] <gsuveg> zetheroo, nevermind.
[08:12] <sauvin> What minimum recommended RAM for Feisty?
[08:12] <nikwad> I wonder which codec pack you think is the best for Ubuntu 7.10
[08:12] <russ> Dextrex, also there is a very nicely formatted manual under Ubundu help -> advanced topics
[08:12] <sauvin> I have a friend whose 256MiB machine won't boot the Feisty LiveCD.
[08:13] <zetheroo> sauvin: I have used Feisty on a machine with 256 MB of RAM and it was a bit sluggish
[08:13] <barbedsaber> live cd asks for 300 somthing, but that is for gutsy, how much u got?
[08:13] <unknownuser_> peter: what nvidia card are you using
[08:13] <zetheroo> sauvin: I think you should have at least 512 for it to really work well
[08:13] <nemilar> don't use the livecd with less than 512, it'll be painful
[08:13] <barbedsaber> maybe try xubuntu
[08:13] <peter120980> 8600 gt x 2 in sli
[08:13] <nemilar> just do a commandline minimal install or something
[08:13] <nemilar> xubuntu for low-end machines works awesome
[08:13] <barbedsaber> alternate install?
[08:14] <sauvin> This is the machine that loads the kernel (apparently) and then freezes: http://cgi.ebay.com.au/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=220194295712&ssPageName=ADME:X:AAQ:AU:1123
[08:14] <zetheroo> sauvin: but in regards to your friends machine not booting into the liveCD session... that could be becasue of numerous things....
[08:14] <nemilar> is that what they call it?
[08:14] <barbedsaber> s that what they call it? i think so
[08:14] <nemilar> sauvin: ok...
[08:14] <nemilar> the cli install is pretty easy
[08:15] <peter120980> ive done "sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade" and "sudo apt-get install nvidia-glx-new" plus various other things
[08:15] <nemilar> blue boxes and stuff, it's fun
[08:15] <zetheroo> sauvin: well that machine is not too horrible.... and it should boot into the livesession
[08:15] <unknownuser_> peter: you have 2 cards installed ?
[08:15] <peter120980> yes
[08:15] <nemilar> sauvin: a little low on RAM, and the processor is a celeron, but that machine can run ubuntu def.
[08:15] <zetheroo> sauvin: you should check that your motherboard is compatible with linux
[08:16] <nemilar> double the ram, though
[08:16] <barbedsaber> Peter, i assume you have done system, admin, restricted driver maneger.
[08:16] <sauvin> I have no means of doing so; the machine is in Australia and I'm in Illinois.
[08:16] <zetheroo> sauvin: I have found that there are a number of Desktop motherboards which do not work with linux
[08:16] <zetheroo> sauvin: I am in Australia as well
[08:16] <peter120980> barbedsaber: maybe, how do i go about doing that?
[08:17] <zetheroo> sauvin: maybe I can help your friend..... where is he?
[08:17] <nemilar> sauvin: dell uses various boards, whatever the cheapest thing they can get is
[08:17] <nemilar> sauvin: but I imagine it should be fine
[08:17] <unop__> !minimal
[08:17] <ubotu> The Minimal CD image is very small in size, and it downloads most packages from the Internet during installation, allowing you to select only those you want (the installer is like the one on the !Alternate CD). See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/MinimalCD
[08:17] <sauvin> zetheroo, in ##linux-coders
[08:17] <barbedsaber> i have a celeron procesr, and it works fine
[08:17] <barbedsaber> click system, (up the top) then administration, then restricted drivers maneger
[08:18] <zetheroo> nemilar: well if the loading of the kernel is freezing then there could also be a problem with the CD.... no?
[08:18] <unknownuser_> peter: can you take a look at this, it might be similar to your problem http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-515260.html
[08:18] <zetheroo> sauvin: well if the loading of the kernel is freezing then there could also be a problem with the CD.... no?
[08:18] <nemilar> zetheroo: yes, that, or the RAM
[08:18] <sauvin> Yes, there could.
[08:18] <peter120980> barbedsaber: i cant get into xserver, all i have is the command prompt
[08:18] <zetheroo> nemilar: true the RAM could be buggered all together
[08:18] <nemilar> Do a CD check, then a memtest
[08:18] <unop__> zetheroo, or the CPU even
[08:19] <zetheroo> unop__: haha... or the Power Supply
[08:19] <nemilar> a) cd check; b) memtest c) try booting some other livecd
[08:19] <unop__> zetheroo, well, if the PSU isnt powering things right, sure why not?
[08:19] <peter120980> thats my problem, i just get a blank screen where i assume the login GUi should be showing
[08:20] <unop__> peter120980, its likely that xorg doesnt support your display adapter out-of-the-box
[08:20] <zetheroo> sauvin: nemilar: I concure with that a-b-c approach... and testing another live cd ... even another distro is a good test
[08:20] <nemilar> should help to narrow things down
[08:20] <sauvin> I think he had problems with a debian livecd, too. :\
[08:20] <nemilar> yeah but that doesn't say much
[08:20] <nemilar> try a fedora liveCD or a centOS liveCD
[08:20] <sauvin> Oh, that WAS a bad CD. My bad.
[08:20] <nemilar> or even better, a gparted LiveCD
[08:21] <zetheroo> sauvin: bad CD?
[08:21] <sauvin> zetheroo, the Debian CD was bad.
[08:21] <zetheroo> sauvin: no worries.. has happened to me several times
[08:21] <bullgard4> Does the Intel M processor use 16- or 32-bit Littleendian?
[08:21] <zetheroo> sauvin: whats his name ?
[08:22] <unop__> bullgard4, i'd say 32
[08:22] <bullgard4> unop__: hm
[08:22] <darkblue_B> why is my disk access light going like crazy, on this brand new gutsy install, when top shows nothing going on??  hdal_addon_stor ocassionally pops up, but seldom
[08:22] <astro76> darkblue_B: if it's brand new it's probably trackerd indexing your files
[08:23] <darkblue_B> oh, auto-indexing.. can I turn that off?
[08:23] <nemilar> darkblue_B: prolly indexing, yeah
[08:23] <nemilar> I haaaaaaate the indexing
[08:23] <astro76> darkblue_B: disable tracker
[08:23] <darkblue_B> I killed it on my mac, too
[08:23] <darkblue_B> disable tracker?
[08:23] <unop__> indexing can be a good thing, if you like locating things quick
[08:24] <darkblue_B> I dont search for things that way
[08:24] <peter120980> unknownuser: yes that seems to be my problem, i did wonder about that as in my xorg it shows my PCI-E as "PCI:2:0:0" or something like that
[08:24] <catach> tracker might be really useful some day, but not really now
[08:24] <nemilar> on today's drives, find is quick enough, no need for indexing
[08:24] <nemilar> unless you need to find a word inside a 4GB file in a 450GB directory structure
[08:25] <unknownuser_> I am glad you found out what is causing it, if that doesn't work please let us know
[08:25] <peter120980> i changed it to 1 and tried that with still no luck
[08:25] <darkblue_B> nemilar: exactly
[08:25] <unop__> nemilar, errm no, find can never beat locate -- there's a reason why updatedb was written
[08:25] <nemilar> darkblue_B:  sudo apt-get remove tracker
[08:25] <nemilar> unop__: but locate also indexes
[08:25] <unop__> nemilar, exactly
[08:25] <nemilar> well I don't like ANY indexing.
[08:26] <nemilar> I'm opposed to it.  On principle.
[08:26] <astro76> darkblue_B: yes in system > preferences > sessions, startup programs tab
[08:26] <nemilar> (Which is just a way of saying, I'm stubborn)
[08:26] <catach> (heh)
[08:26] <peter120980> it didnt solve my problem, i set the value from 1 - 7 and still no luck
[08:27] <unknownuser_> peter: did you complety restart after you changed it ?
[08:27] <peter120980> yes
[08:27] <musikgoat> any recommendations on a basic graphical log viewer that I can run on my server to get quick information?
[08:28] <darkblue_B> astro76: thx I just dd that
[08:28] <unop__> musikgoat, gnome-system-log i think
[08:28] <darkblue_B> astro76: I mean, you pointed it out.. I ddnt know abou that
[08:28] <darkblue_B> astro76: thx
[08:28] <musikgoat> its headless, so command line, or web based would work
[08:29] <peter120980> i wish i knew more about it, my first thoughts was that it was maybe using the wrong card or output, im using the vga output not the dvi
[08:29] <musikgoat> sorry, i guess graphical is misleading
[08:29] <unknownuser_> peter: that might actually be it, from what I understand it defaults to dvi
[08:30] <unknownuser_> peter: do you have a dvi device you can test it with?
[08:30] <Ububegin> hei guys, anyone can suggest a great bashrc file
[08:30] <peter120980> no
[08:30] <unop__> peter120980, have you tried restarting xorg?
[08:30] <peter120980> everytime i made a change i restarted
[08:31] <unop__> Ububegin, i guess the best one is the one you create, right?
[08:31] <Ububegin> for my shell window.... I want the command line and result in a new line....
[08:31] <peter120980> what would i do to make the vga port the output and not the dvi
[08:32] <Ububegin> unop_ : i havent been ubuntu(linux) for some time, so i forgot ... how i do make the command and result in new line...
[08:32] <unop__> Ububegin, i'm not sure i follow you

[08:34] <ubotu> envy is not needed or supported. Use the Resticted Manager to install binary drivers and see « /msg ubotu binarydriver »
[08:34] <Ububegin> unop: yeah.. i want the shell prompt and result in separate lines instead of the same line

[08:40] <ganesh> how to upldate  the grub when the filesystem copied from live cd
[08:40] <unop__> Ububegin, it's temporary, so you need to edit your .bashrc and change PS1
[08:41] <Ein_> any one can help me plz?
[08:41] <Kate_mins> hello, can someone help me please? how do i start vino-server from a remote ssh login ?
[08:41] <peter120980> i checked my pci bus again and my MB shows it as been on 7, i changed the bus ID to 7 in the xorg file and bingo it works
[08:41] <gsuveg> eikke, ask
[08:41] <unknownuser_> what do you need help with Ein_ ?
[08:41] <Ububegin> unop_ : k, thanks man.... I will go on from here....
[08:41] <astro76> Cursed_6_ds: dpkg -l will list all packages, but not source or bin since they are not packages
[08:41] <gsuveg> Ein_, ask
[08:41] <gsuveg> eikke, sry
[08:42] <unknownuser_> peter: awesome, I am glad you got it figured out
[08:42] <peter120980> lol the problem i have know is ive got pink squares in the white areas, i assume thats because of some driver problem
[08:43] <unknownuser_> peter: probably, those cards have several issues from what I understand
[08:43] <Ein_> I installed Project Looking-Glass on my ubuntu 7.10 but when I try to access to looking-glass session it's show only a black screen
[08:43] <peter120980> if i want to intstall the best driver possible how would i got about ding it?
[08:45] <unknownuser_> peter: I am not sure if the program I mentioned earlier will work for you or not
[08:45] <peter120980> are you now allowed to mention that program or something?
[08:46] <unop__> peter120980, i'd try reconfiguring xorg first to try and get the script to autodetect most things -- sudo dpkg-reconfigure -plow xserver-xorg
[08:47] <peter120980> unop__: ok i will go try that now and see what happens
[08:49] <peter120980> thank you so much for you help everyone, i need to go find a couple of matchsticks now, im so adictied to this at the moment, just out of curiosity, does anyone play ffxi or wow and managed to run it on linux?
[08:49] <ray_> i recently reloaded compiz on my 7.10 release, and using the appearance preference i go to custom.  Then i get an error that reads as follows, The Composite extension is not available, what is the cause of this?
[08:50] <RasterBurner> im pretty sure no WOW on linux dude....
[08:50] <alanbshepard70> is it possible with ubuntu to share a wireless internet connection over ethernet to another computer? I have an ethernet crossover cable, 2 computers running linux powered on and a wireless internet connection.
[08:50] <RasterBurner> yes, its possible alan
[08:50] <unknownerror_int> youcan get wow on linux pretty easily
[08:50] <alanbshepard70> RasterBurner: would you happen to know how? I've been googling and searching the ubuntu forums for hours.
[08:51] <alanbshepard70> Some articles seemed promising but in the end they required two nics and not one nic and one wireless adapter. I should also mention it's a USB wireless adapter not a pci one.
[08:52] <peter120980> well i dont play wow but i play ffxi which is pretty much the same thing, i guess when i get ubuntu running properly thats my next project, i would love to do away  with windows altogether

[09:10] <bluefoxx> if i have another, older computer going on a live boot disk, can i connect it to this one via a xover lan cable?[i have two lan ports on this comp], also, do serial mice/devices work in linux or was support for them phased out/broken cause the serial mouse i have on the other comp wont work on any live boot cd i have tried so far and it wont work on this one[i treid an adaptor]
[09:11] <xtyn> does anyone know why ubuntu won't shut down my laptop properly while some other distros do?
[09:12] <xtyn> as far as i know, they have the same vesion of acpi
[09:12] <Ziroday> bluefoxx: that must be some hell of a old computer, about the serial mice and keyboards not sure. The other question have you look at !install
[09:13] <foo-nix> I would like to configure my sound. I have two soundcards, actually one card and one on board 'chip'. The onboard is not working, probably some problem with the jacks. I would like touse the card, which is possible. I managed to get sound out of them, although before getting there I have went through a proccess of trail and error.
[09:13] <Ziroday> xtyn: every distro does power management differently, I recommend you report a bug
[09:13] <xtyn> a...
[09:13] <foo-nix> Things I have done is 'asoundconf set-default-card 0' and 'asoundconf set-default-card 1'.
[09:13] <xtyn> well, i know my laptop is not supported
[09:14] <Ziroday> xtyn: what do you mean by your laptop is not supported, what laptop model is it?
[09:14] <xtyn> lg
[09:14] <foo-nix> and I have tried the gnome-sound-..., some program in my System>Administration>Sound launcher
[09:14] <Ziroday> xtyn: well still report a bug anyway
[09:14] <foo-nix> Which was able to play all the ytest sounds, although my amarok is not able to play any sound.
[09:15] <bluefoxx> Ziroday, not that old actually, the mobo is 00/01 ish, its an asus tusi -m running a socket 370 celeron 1000mhz, i used a serial mouse cause its the only extra mouse i could find laying around, the other is a wacom tablet with no pen and my main needs the cordless, i move around alot[even though its an desktop]
[09:15] <foo-nix> In amarok I can choose between alsa and oss as sound device front end. alsa seems to work , but no sound is comming from my speacker, so It probably uses my onboard.
[09:16] <Ziroday> bluefoxx: might recommend DSL or Puppy linux to you, both are meant to run on older machines
[09:17] <foo-nix> When I choose os it borks that xine was unable to initialise any soudn drivers.
[09:17] <xtyn> lg is not supported
[09:17] <xtyn> i looked at the list
[09:17] <xtyn> i had a lot of problems with my hardware and linux
[09:18] <bluefoxx> Ziroday, i tried puppy but my disk was scratched, then again i was o/c ing the cpu and it was de-stabelized atm, but my burner got toasted earlier this month[wow, its still january!!]
[09:18] <foo-nix> Would someone have any idea where to check settings
[09:20] <bluefoxx> well, ill solve it on the weekend i wave school tomorrow[2:00am allready??lol]

[09:22] <broken___> Hey, I want to move my windows vista to ubuntu however the only thing I'm concerned about is Skype working with web cams upport.. anyone can report on its succes using wine?
[09:22] <brylie> has anyone here been able to install Tapioca communications on Ubuntu 7.10?
[09:23] <brylie> Tapioca has webcam.
[09:23] <russ> broken___ I believe skype is available as a native linux application so no need for wine
[09:23] <brylie> It's crazy hard to compile and meet the dependencies though.
[09:23] <astro76> broken___: the latest linux native client has video, version 4 beta
[09:23] <broken___> russ, yes I've tried that before.. but it doesn't have video
[09:23] <broken___> Oh doe sit?
[09:23] <broken___> Sweet!

[09:35] <Gpalco> Hi! The longer I have Firefox started it GROWS and GROWS in memory size!  Is there a way to fix it ???? PLS!
[09:36] <Plantain> Gpalco: What version of FireFox? What version of Ubuntu?
[09:36] <Gpalco> Plantain, latest
[09:37] <Plantain> latest of both?
[09:37] <nocturn> Hi all
[09:37] <Gpalco> Plantain, aha
[09:37] <nocturn> Can I get the fedora directory server console on Ubuntu?
[09:37] <nocturn> I can alien the rpms, but that gives me the server, webapps and all too
[09:38] <Gpalco> Plantain, I heard it keeps 8 preveously opened pages in mamory. Can it be changed ???
[09:38] <Plantain> That's not quite true, but it does cache a lot
[09:38] <Plantain> just remember, unused memory is wasted memory
[09:38] <Plantain> So unless you're running at 100% full, you're not getting your money's worth
[09:38] <Gpalco> Plantain, =)
[09:39] <codyduncan> does anyone know how I can check to make sure ndiswrapper has been removed from my machine?
[09:39] <Gpalco> Plantain, but it would be good if Firefox emtied it once it gets critically huge
[09:39] <erUSUL> foo-nix: apples to oranges alsa are the kernel drivers gstreamer ias a multimedia framwork. Gstreamer can use alsa or osss or a sound server to play sound
[09:39] <codyduncan> though, it should be made clear, I am only removing it because I think I put on the wrong version, so I need to install the 64 bit version
[09:41] <erUSUL> codyduncan: sudo apt-get remove --purge ndiswrapper  ??
[09:42] <mrtimdog> Help! This morning my machine at work had decided to randomly choose between upper and lower case whenever I type. I can't login to gdm. I've tried using both a PS/2 and a USB keyboard and also using virtual console to avoid gdm, but no luck!
[09:43] <broken___> I am a bit irritated here. Whenever I try to install ubuntu, I mean I'm at the boot from cd screen now when I hit "install ubuntu" it loads the kernel then reboots.
[09:43] <broken___> And this is as far as I've ever gotten.
[09:43] <broken___> It says Kernel alive at the bottom, and kernel mapping.
[09:43] <broken___> Wait..now in safe graphics mode it started..
[09:43] <user11_011> does anyone know about setting a yahoo account on pidgin. why is japan shown in advanced tab??? i amon ubuntu 7.10
[09:44] <broken___> Odd.
[09:44] <usr13_> broken___: May be hardware issue.
[09:44] <broken___> usr13, how does linux in general take to overclocking?
[09:45] <usr13_> broken___: Llinux doesn't care about overclocking.
[09:45] <broken___> Very well.
[09:46] <Madpilot> broken___, did you run an md5sum check on the ISO you downloading? Borked installer usually means either bad download or bad burn
[09:46] <usr13_> broken___: Just fine, in other words, but if you are overclocked, you might back down a bit for the install.
[09:46] <broken___> Yea I usually install OS' with stock options.
[09:46] <Madpilot> this box is overclocked - 1.8GHz  up to ~2.0Ghz. Never any issues.
[09:46] <usr13_> broken___: If you overclock a processor, you may have unstable performance at times.
[09:47] <broken___> hmm..
[09:47] <broken___> Mine is oc'd from 1.8 to 3.0 lol
[09:47] <broken___> I never had any issues after running multiple stress tests..
[09:47] <broken___> But i'll keep it 1:1 ratio from now on.
[09:48] <usr13_> broken___: Good. That's what I'd do

[09:55] <Ububegin> usr13- : thanks the ss64.com is sweet... it has examples... :D
[09:55] <sperca> linux-headers are in devel packages ?
[09:55] <barbedsaber> ohh, do you want to download things on someoneelse computer, put it onto flash drive or somthing, and copy to your computer?
[09:56] <barbedsaber> that is a pain to do, and I gave up
[09:56] <usr13_> perform not preform  (sorry)
[09:56] <sperca> I just found 2.6.15 or I need 2.6.22-14-generic
[09:57] <unixhag_> I guess I'll just have to wait it out and see if the system is still usable afterwards :-)
[09:58] <barbedsaber> whistles and waits for a problem he knows how to fix.
[09:58] <bullgard4> [Intel Pentium M Processor] 'strings /usr/share/locale-langpack/de/LC_MESSAGES/kfileshare.mo' doesnt output German umlauts replacing them with a carriage return and line feed. neither --encoding=l nor --encoding=L prevents this. What is the proper parameter for that?
[09:58] <Stephmw> interesting dcc flood we had 6hrs ago...
[09:58] <alch3mist> where can i whine about ubuntu packages from ubuntu maintainers?
[09:58] <barbedsaber> ubuntu forums has rant thingies i think
 : is there no channel?
[09:59] <barbedsaber> dont think so, what is your problem with it
[09:59] <barbedsaber> ubuntu stuff is mainly on the forums
[10:00] <sperca> nobody have the link to download linux-headers-2.6.22-14-generic ?
[10:00] <alch3mist> barbedsaber : just want to ask about why there has been any update for mono 1.2.6 in gutsy..
[10:00] <family> hi all i have a question, im trying to run a python script and its telling me no qt module found what might i do to fix this
[10:01] <family> File "./xlil.py", line 2, in ?from qt import *ImportError: No module named qt
[10:01] <usr13_> sperca: sudo apt-get install linux-headers-2.6.22-14-generic
[10:02] <barbedsaber> just want to ask about why there has been any update for mono 1.2.6 in gutsy., um,  what (you would get more of an answer asking a brick wall than me, i dont understand
[10:02] <family> am i missing something for python  that i can apt-get install?
[10:02] <barbedsaber> there you go
[10:02] <sperca> usr13_ : I can connect me on the Internet at all
[10:03] <usr13_> sperca: How then will you download it?
[10:03] <barbedsaber> bye all, I really have no idea what I am doing, so i will hang out in the forums. hehe
[10:03] <alch3mist> barbedsaber : omg you ask me what's my problem ( it's a rhetorical question... :D )
[10:04] <sperca> there is not a package for linux-header on the Internet
[10:04] <sperca> I must pass by aptitude ?
[10:04] <sperca> when we don't have the Internet, How can I do ?
[10:05] <bastones> Hello. I burnt the .iso Ubuntu onto a CD last night, and I am installing Ubuntu now. It all worked fine. I clicked 'Start or install Ubuntu' from all the list of options, and it just started Ubuntu and I presume it huasn't installed
[10:05] <broken___> usr13, hmm I just finished installing ubuntu and it just keeps rebooting now.. I mean it load grub then it says "kernel alive" at the bottom and then waits and reoots
[10:05] <unixhag_> well finally I see things like scim-pinyin being downloaded, so I guess I'm on the right track
[10:05] <family> aww i found qttools and stuff im downloading now
[10:06] <ubentu> total noob question, but has anyone here managed to get 3d rendering working properly with openchrome?
  : it's a live cd you have to click the shortcut "install"
[10:06] <usr13_> broken___: memtest
[10:06] <broken___> usr13, I am booted in recovery mode now, what would you say I need to do? dpkg reconfigure?
[10:06] <broken___> usr13, memory should be fine.
[10:07] <broken___> I ran memtest for 14 hours and it was fine.
[10:07] <broken___> That was about 1-2 months ago.
[10:07] <barbedsaber> I got bored
[10:07] <usr13_> sperca: http://packages.ubuntu.com/gutsy/devel/linux-headers-2.6.22-14-generic

[10:08] <barbedsaber> ?? (0o)
[10:08] <sperca> usr13_ thank you very much ;-)
[10:08] <nemilar> brrr, it's cold in here
[10:08] <sperca> I gonna try
[10:08] <usr13_> broken___: So it  boots to recovery mode ok, but not normal?
[10:09] <usr13_> usr13 turns the heat up.
[10:09] <barbedsaber> try typing startx, or pressing ctrl alt backspace
[10:09] <nemilar> ty ty
[10:09] <alch3mist> plain english... just plain english... and somehow i feel like an alien...
[10:09] <broken___> usr13, yes
[10:09] <broken___> I'm in it right now, just don't know what I should do.
[10:09] <barbedsaber> ctrl alt backspace
[10:10] <toresn> do any of you have experience with 'ogle dvd player'
[10:10] <usr13_> broken___: Let it try to boot normally, watch for clues as to whay it aborts and starts over.  It should give errors.
[10:10] <broken___> I do see in dmesg "ACPI: Looking for DSDT in INITRAMFS ... error /DSDT.aml not found"
[10:10] <broken___> usr13, it doesn't give errors.
[10:11] <toresn> i get the following error when trying to open a dvd in 'ogle dvd player': FATAL[ogle_audio]: failed opening the oss audio driver at /dev/dsp
[10:11] <family> yea i need some help i downloaded qt3-apps-dev but its not working i still have no module named qt as and error
[10:11] <unknownerror_int> broken: have you tried disabling all advanced graphics options
[10:11] <usr13_> broken___: Pardon me, but you just gave me an example of one.  Are there others?
[10:12] <phuzion> whats a good FTP client for ubuntu?
[10:12] <broken___> What advanced graphic options are there?
[10:12] <usr13_> phuzion: gftp
[10:12] <family> depends kde or gnome
[10:12] <broken___> usr13, that's the only one I see that is an error in dmesg
[10:12] <family> kftpgrapper for kde
[10:12] <usr13_> phuzion: If you need GUI
[10:12] <family> and gftp for gnome
[10:12] <phuzion> usr13, yeah, GUI preferably
[10:13] <family> phuzion above
[10:13] <Madpilot> phuzion, for basic FTP, Nautilus (the file manager) works nicely
[10:13] <broken___> and also "no NUMA configuration found"
[10:13] <francis> Anyone -> I have postfix using another host to relay outgoing mail. All works well but when my webserver sends a mail i see that its send by<EMAIL_ADDRESS>. How do i change this this to<EMAIL_ADDRESS>for which the outgoing relay is a mx host !!
[10:13] <phuzion> I'll give GFTP a shit
[10:13] <phuzion> shot*
[10:13] <broken___> unknownerror_int, what advanced graphic options are there?
[10:13] <alch3mist> it started to get stinky in here
[10:13] <phuzion> haha that was a somewhat interesting typo
[10:13] <barbedsaber> lol
[10:14] <unknownerror_int> broken: I am probably wrong but if you goto system preferences appear on gnome you can disable visual effects
[10:14] <broken___> oh.
[10:14] <broken___> I can't even boot up unknownerror_int
[10:14] <broken___> lol
[10:14] <alch3mist> or just right click choose change background got to visual effects tab
[10:15] <unknownerror_int> when you get into recovery, you have command line only?
[10:15] <broken___> yes.
[10:15] <bastones> alch3mist: I tried double-clicking it and right clicking and pressing 'Open' but it won't open, the computer is incredibily slow at the moment.
[10:16] <broken___> the problem I believe.. is due to my video hardware. because i'm running dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[10:16] <family> anyone have an idea on how to fix this?  File "./xlil.py", line 2, in ?from qt import *ImportError: No module named qt
[10:16] <broken___> And its telling me that it cannot autodetect my video hardware or its not supported by the X servers.
[10:16] <broken___> Its an ATI X1950XT
[10:16] <bastones> oh the install finally opened
[10:16] <joedj> would anyone like to suggest how I might install Ubuntu without an optical drive?
[10:16] <unknownerror_int> broken: I have no real experience with ati unfortunately
[10:16] <barbedsaber> with great difficulty
[10:17] <usr13_> broken___: xorg configuration wouldn't make it reboot.
 : the required mem is 256 for the live cd if you want to install right-away and fast you should have download an alternate cd...
[10:17] <barbedsaber> external optical drive :)
[10:17] <joedj> barbedsaber: those are disabled in the BIOS =P
[10:17] <family> aww forget it ill just download everything with qt infront of the package name
[10:18] <usr13_> broken___: If it were a problem with xorg configuration, it would leave you with console mode only and tell you  "no screens were found" or something to that effect.
[10:18] <barbedsaber> go into your bios settings, and change boot order
[10:18] <broken___> usr13, but not detecting my video card..
[10:18] <broken___> bahh
[10:18] <broken___> keeps rebooting.
[10:18] <broken___> wtf
[10:18] <family> yea and thats a royal pain inthe arse sudo dpkg -reconfigure xserver-xorg
[10:19] <matt__> i just did an automatic update and it broke lircd. i have a happauge pvr 150. ive read some threads on the forums but none helped. how can i downgrade lirc so it will work again?
[10:19] <joedj> barbedsaber: BIOS password...
[10:19] <usr13_> broken___: Whatch the screen, you should see some indication why it's rebooting.
[10:19] <Hemebond> Weee problems. My Nautilus has stopped working after I tried many times to connect to a local VM over SSH but couldn't.
[10:19] <broken___> .... ok now its booting.
[10:19] <broken___> I've reset my bios settings to default again.
[10:19] <broken___> Apparently the first time they weren't default.
[10:20] <barbedsaber> contact the manufacturur, you shouln't need a password, unnless you set one.
[10:20] <Hemebond> Ah.
[10:20] <matt__> anyone? ;[
[10:20] <Hemebond> Found a process, killed it, now Nautilus opens AND connects to SSH.
[10:21] <joedj> barbedsaber: i didn't set one, the "administrators" did...
[10:21] <joedj> barbedsaber: i can easily open it up and pull the CMOS jumper, but trying to avoid that option...
[10:21] <barbedsaber> ask them to tell you what it is, is it your computer?
[10:21] <barbedsaber> are you allowed to install ubuntu on it?
[10:21] <usr13_> joedj: Try removing cmos battery.
[10:21] <kaos01> hi, has anyone built e1000-7.6.15 on ubuntu 2.6.17-10-386 ?
[10:21] <unknownerror_int> joedj: it sounds like a dell
[10:21]  * broken___ grumbles and puts in ethernet cable
[10:22] <joedj> barbedsaber: i am not explicitly disallowed =P
[10:22] <Hemebond> lol
[10:22] <barbedsaber> whos computer is it
[10:22] <joedj> the option i'll probably take will simply be to complain to management that i can't do my job properly without sufficient access, but it would be preferable to avoid that
[10:22] <joedj> barbedsaber: employers

[10:56] <Hemebond> juice_: Of Ubuntu
[10:56] <juice_> 7.10

[10:57] <Hemebond> juice_: What happens when you click on normal?
[10:57] <juice_> Unable to start the settings manager 'gnome-settings-daemon'.
[10:57] <juice_> Without the GNOME settings manager running, some preferences may not take effect. This could indicate a problem with Bonobo, or a non-GNOME (e.g. KDE) settings manager may already be active and conflicting with the GNOME settings manager.
[10:58] <juice_> same thing when i click normal
[10:58] <gejr> frojnd: lsmod | egrep "^snd"
[10:58] <gejr> frojnd: are the sound modules loaded?
[10:58] <Hemebond> juice_: Have you installed KDE or anything else? Is this a clean install?
[10:58] <juice_> clean
[10:59] <themos> thank you usr13
[10:59] <frojnd> gejr, http://pastebin.ca/877581
[11:00] <Hemebond> juice_: What happens if you start gnome-settings-daemon from a terminal?
[11:00] <gejr> frojnd: that looks good. And you've unmuted everything in alsamixer?
[11:00] <juice_> whats the commend
[11:00] <frojnd> gejr, no, how can I do this?
[11:00] <gejr> frojnd: just run "alsamixer"
[11:00] <Hemebond> juice_: gnome-settings-daemon

[11:00] <gejr> frojnd: click "M" to unmute controls and left/right arrows to switch controls
[11:01] <gejr> frojnd: if it says "MM" in the bottom of the control it is muted. You do not want that ;)

[11:03] <kaos01> what packages do i need to be able to build kernel modules ?
[11:03] <Leo1989> Guys, applications built with wxWidgets can run under both GNOME and KDE, am I right?
[11:03] <LiraNuna> yes
[11:03] <shan> hi
[11:03] <LiraNuna> since wxwidgets is a dynamic library, like SDL
[11:03] <juice_> lulz
[11:03] <LiraNuna> all you have to do is have a different wx base
[11:04] <kaos01> i get: E: Couldn't find package kernel-devel
[11:04] <LiraNuna> wxgtk or wxqt
[11:04] <LiraNuna> kaos01, linux-kernel-headers
[11:04] <Leo1989> If so, why do developers use GTK and that lib for KDE, if it is possible to build a tool with wx and run it under both gnome and K...
[11:04] <LiraNuna> -devel is for redhat
[11:04] <LiraNuna> Leo1989, yes
[11:05] <Leo1989> If so, Anjuta and KDevelop are useless :D
[11:05] <LiraNuna> codeblocks?
[11:05] <LiraNuna> Anjuta ain't useless
[11:05] <Leo1989> yep!
[11:05] <LiraNuna> Anjuta <3
[11:05] <LiraNuna> I prefer Anjuta over KDevelop
[11:05] <Leo1989> C::D builds with wx for both G & KDE ^^
[11:06] <gary4gar> according to https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LaptopTestingTeam/Lenovo3000N100_0768, which is my notebook, it is fully supported, but i having some problems with it :(, can anyone offer a hand??, my wireless hotkey does not work(FN+F5). my i tested it with "xev" & i get i get this event http://www.pastebin.ca/877577
[11:06] <LiraNuna> uh
[11:06] <LiraNuna> C::D doesn't build anything
[11:06] <usr13_> juice_: you might try to remove .gconf   (I think it will re-create itself)
[11:06] <LiraNuna> GCC builds it
[11:06] <LiraNuna> anjuta/cb/kdev are IDEs
[11:06] <juice_> usr13_: command?
[11:06] <kaos01> it keeps failing: Failed to fetch http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/main/l/linux-source-2.6.17/linux-libc-dev_2.6.17-10.33_i386.deb  Could not connect to archive.ubuntu.com:80
[11:06] <Leo1989> I know it
[11:06] <LiraNuna> IDEs are not a compiler, they do not build anything
[11:06] <Leo1989> I know what "compiler" and "ide" is :)
[11:06] <LiraNuna> good
[11:07] <usr13_> rm -r ~/.gconf
[11:07] <shan> i need assambly programmer help
[11:07] <Leo1989> the point is I don't see any sense in using something other than wx,
[11:07] <Hemebond> Wow, there's 1145 people in this channel.
[11:08] <usr13_> Hemebond: That's scary!  :)
[11:08] <LiraNuna> Leo1989, wx doesn't do graphics
[11:08] <LiraNuna> Leo1989, hence why you need to use something else when it comes to games/3D
[11:08] <kaos01> this is my first time here, hahah
[11:08] <usr13_> Hemebond: 1146 now
[11:09] <kaos01> keep on counting, doing a great job, haha
[11:09] <LiraNuna> heh
[11:09] <Leo1989> Anyway, I found Ubuntu and Mandriva best linux distros :) Btw Geant is nice C++ ide too ;) until you build guis ofc
[11:09] <Leo1989> geany
[11:09] <usr13_> Some count sheep, we count nics
[11:10] <LiraNuna> I still like Anjuta
[11:10] <LiraNuna> especially because of the Scintilla backend <3
[11:10] <usr13_> what is Anjuta?
[11:10] <peabody> The .desktop files I create always go under the 'other' menu.  How can I get them to go under Accessories?
[11:10] <LiraNuna> peabody, System -> Pref -> Main Menu

[11:32] <goodhabit> *before
[11:33] <ralph> Vistec
[11:33] <ralph> didn't try yet .. i mean it wouldn't be a problem if i changed the xorg.conf perhaps
[11:33] <ralph> but during ubuntu runtime ...
[11:34] <ralph> would it help if i tried to figure out which input device it is and "preconfigure" it in xorg.conf?\
[11:34] <Kibble> what's a good command-line text editor (more features=better)
[11:34] <goodhabit> ralph, it is directly depends on xorg.conf too. But you writter about during )
[11:34] <Tw> im sorry.....but how can i remove a wine program? i compiled it myself
[11:35] <goodhabit> gary4gar, there are many ways to set your personal shortcuts.
[11:35] <fay_elf> MS Wireless Optical 2.0 is 100% Linux compatible and quite special
[11:35] <gary4gar> goodhabit, so what way should i go, please guide
[11:35] <goodhabit> Twim4, the binary distro means you may install only binary packages for your distro. Installing "by hand" is deletable only by hand.
[11:35] <mar77i> ralph: don't really know. browse the net
[11:36] <goodhabit> !packaging > Twim4
[11:36] <goodhabit> gary4gar, I don't know, but I know 100% google can help :) Let's look together.
[11:36] <ralph> ok but maybe you can help me, how i can figure out, what input device the mouse is?
[11:36] <idefix_> how do you know if your IPC address is asigned by a DHCP server?
[11:36] <idefix_> IP address...
[11:37] <doctorow> I clicked the "Force Quit" applet twice in a row and now I've got a permanent modeless window on the screen that says CLICK ON A WINDOW TO FORCE THE APPLICATION TO QUIT etc -- how do I kill this (short of restarting X)?
[11:38] <gary4gar> goodhabit, okay
[11:38] <goodhabit> doctorow, try "sudo pkill -9 name_of_process"
[11:39] <ralph> how can i find out the connected devices like an usb mouse? i want to know which input device it is, so that i can configure the xorg.conf
[11:39] <doctorow> Thanks goodhabit -- but I can't find the name of the process -- I've tried "ps -ax | grep force" and "ps -ax|grep quit" but both return null sets
[11:39] <Twim4> oke, thanks goodhabit...understood
[11:40] <goodhabit> Twim4, I think you can also re-install it, and look installing process.
[11:40] <goodhabit> Many software shows where they are putting files during installing.
[11:40] <Twim4> it takes me too much....
[11:41] <ralph> could someone please help me?  how can i find out the connected devices like an usb mouse? i want to know which input device it is, so that i can configure the xorg.conf
[11:41] <goodhabit> Twim4, only if you deleted source :)
[11:41] <goodhabit> ralph, dmesg can help you I think.
[11:41] <Twim4> oke.....everything by hand?
[11:41] <goodhabit> Btw, why are you changed?
[11:43] <goodhabit> Twim4, I'm afraid yes. I want to warn you do _not_ installing packages from source by "make install" method at all, because it is not deletable and can make some damage your system.
[11:43] <Zhaozhou> Now, can someone explain to me how DCC request to port 0 works, and if (then how) it could be dangerous?

[11:51] <goodhabit> Twim4, I see. Btw, there are all deb files for all versions of wine.
[11:51] <goodhabit> Twim4, I'm sorry, but I think executing "make install" and checking output is the only variant for you.
[11:52] <broken___> goodhabit, what I did was download the package off their site and move the plugin.so to firefox/plugins
[11:52] <gary4gar> !flash > broken___
[11:52] <goodhabit> broken___, I'm just downloaded *.deb file and doubleckicked on it. It works :)
[11:52] <gary4gar> broken___, please see msg from ubotu
[11:53] <bastones> https://help.ubuntu.com/7.10/internet/C/ndiswrapper.html it says here optain my Windows driver for your system. Where would I find that?
[11:54] <Kibble> !exploit > kibble
[11:54] <spanther> i have following problem when i start ubuntu on my computer i can hear the start gingle sound but i cant use XMMS or CounterStrike since there is no sound
[11:55] <Twim4> goodhabit, oke......i did it again....but no error are available.....hm....
[11:55] <goodhabit> broken___, if you have some troubles with english (as I am for example), here the easy way to solve flash problem - http://rapidshare.com/files/87518678/flashplugin-nonfree_<IP_ADDRESS>ubuntu0.7.10_i386.deb.html
[11:55] <goodhabit> Twim4, if it not shows where it puts their files, try looking for help @ #wine
[11:56] <broken___> goodhabit, heh. The only problem with english I have is that I don't care enough to spell everything properly.
[11:56] <kaboombob> how can i tell what filesystem a device uses?
[11:56] <goodhabit> broken___, just wanter to help.
[11:56] <broken___> Thanks ;(
[11:56] <broken___> ;)*
[11:56] <goodhabit> kaboombob, mount -t filesystem
 goodhabit, heh. The only problem with english I have is that I don't care enough to spell everything properly. # why does it look like you do, broken___?
[11:57] <goodhabit> Twim4, and remember - you can do everything _without_ root.
[11:57] <spanther> and the most weird thing is that my gbit lan   NVIDIA CK804 is configured with alsa and my realtek alc655 is bound to oss in the soundsystem
[11:57] <broken___> kbrooks, I don't know, does it?
[11:58] <Twim4> oh....im sorry )) my english is very poor and i didnt understand y at first time, i should look were wine puts it's files and delete it by hand, wright?
[11:58] <kbrooks> broken___, you care enough to spell everything properly is my point
[11:58] <spanther> hello?
[11:58] <goodhabit> Twim4, actually I think there are possibility of my poor english :) But yes.
[11:58] <Gpalco> Hi. I am having a strange problem with Ubuntu: After I start a program computer stays idle for 30 - 60 secs without loading anything from HDD and only after that starts application. It is always like that. But very inconvinient.
[11:58] <bastones> https://help.ubuntu.com/7.10/internet/C/ndiswrapper.html it says here optain my Windows driver for your system. Where would I find that?
[11:58] <kaboombob> goodhabit that didt do anything for me
[11:58] <kbrooks> Twim4, your english is not that poor :-)
[11:59] <goodhabit> kaboombob, try to explaing what are you trying to do.
[11:59] <Twim4> omg ))))
[11:59] <kaboombob> the filesystem isnt auto mounting and its howing up as /dev/sdb
[11:59] <Twim4> oke understood
[11:59] <Switch^> is there a way to copy your gnome menu to fluxbox?
[11:59] <Twim4> i'll try that
[11:59] <broken___> kbrooks, ok whatever it's 6:59AM and either I can't understand what you are saying, or you are not making sense.
[11:59] <Gpalco> It is diferent only with gksu prompt
[11:59] <goodhabit> kaboombob, do you know what filesystem there?
[11:59] <kaboombob> goodhabit nope
[11:59] <goodhabit> kaboombob, what device is it?
[12:00] <kaboombob> its a usb 1.1 mp3 player
[12:00] <kbrooks> broken___, looks like you can't get what i'm saying then, same timezone here as well
[12:00] <xen_> hey there when ever i try configure a source file i get this: checking for X... configure: error: Can't find X includes. Please check your installation and add the correct paths!
[12:00] <xen_> whats up with this?
[12:00] <goodhabit> kaboombob, maybe player cannot be usable as normal flash-storage? Default flash fs can be mounted with "vfat"
[12:01] <white_eagle> my friend wants to install ubuntu but to keep windows xp, so he has already one 30gigs partition for windows, and one 160gigs for games, can I divide again that other partition to make room for ubuntu (he wants to leave 40gigs for it) (ofcourse previously backup-ing everything) and will that work, and not disrupt XP?
[12:01] <broken___> kbrooks, heh I don't believe its entirely relevant anyways.. ;)
[12:01] <xen_> im using Kubuntu 7.10  btw
[12:01] <kaboombob> goodhabit what would the command look like for that?
[12:01] <goodhabit> xen_, x-dev
[12:01] <goodhabit> libx11-dev
[12:01] <kbrooks> white_eagle, yes, XP disruption: um, backup if in doubt
[12:01] <zombie_monkey> will I get an improvement in 2D performance if I install the nvidia binary drivers? I don't use anythign 3Da dn I heard the binary drivers are more unstable.
[12:01] <xen_> ahh ok ty
[12:02] <josh__> anyone know of a good mysql uml tool for ubuntu/linux ?
[12:02] <goodhabit> white_eagle, just cut some partitions for ubuntu in windows first.
[12:02] <bastones> https://help.ubuntu.com/7.10/internet/C/ndiswrapper.html -- where would I find the .ifo Windows driver, whatever that is?
[12:02] <xen_> goodhabit says i already have the current version of libx11-dev
[12:02] <white_eagle> and install ubuntu on them, right?
[12:02] <goodhabit> kaboombob, $ sudo mount -t vfat /dev/??? /whatever/where/you/are/mounting
[12:03] <zombie_monkey> bastones: the website of the manufacturer
[12:03] <gary4gar> goodhabit, i mapped it

[12:03] <FloodBot2> gary4gar: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[12:03] <kbrooks> thank you FloodBot2
[12:04] <xen_> goodhabit i noticed this though after apt-get install libx11-dev, it says "libx11-dev set to manual installed."
[12:04] <goodhabit> white_eagle, when you are installing ubuntu it asks what actually ubuntu installer must do with partitions. Chosse "manyally" mode for it - and tell em it yourself.
[12:04] <xen_> could this be a problem?
[12:04] <gary4gar> goodhabit, now what to do?
[12:05] <goodhabit> gary4gar, I don't know what you need to do now. I can only advice what you can use for it.
[12:06] <brandon__> !ot
[12:06] <ubotu> #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome!
[12:06] <xen_> !ubotu libx11-dev
[12:06] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about libx11-dev - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[12:07] <gary4gar> !info lbx11-dev
[12:07] <ubotu> Package lbx11-dev does not exist in gutsy
[12:07] <xen_> !info libx11-dev
[12:07] <ubotu> libx11-dev (source: libx11): X11 client-side library (development headers). In component main, is optional. Version 2:1.1.1-1ubuntu4 (gutsy), package size 8494 kB, installed size 20560 kB
[12:07] <Twim4> goodhabit, is that oke when i do this "sudo rm /usr/local/bin/wine*" ?
[12:07] <xen_> weird i already got it installed, yet ./configure still throws out this "checking for X... configure: error: Can't find X includes. Please check your installation and add the correct paths!"
[12:08] <bastones> zombie_money: I am not really sure what to do to get the drivers off microsoft's website...   Then i get an error that reads as follows, The Composite extension is not available, what is the cause of this?
[12:10] <mcisbackuk> !ask | drowner
[12:10] <ubotu> drowner: Please don't ask to ask a question, ask the question (all on ONE line, so others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely answer. :-)
[12:10] <drowner_> ok ok
[12:10] <drowner_> so, my friend has a trojan in her msn, so i downloaded it with pidgin, to find out a bit more about it
[12:10] <drowner_> i figure i'll be OK
[12:10] <drowner_> :D
[12:10] <kaboombob> i think i just deleted /home/robert can i undo that? im the only user on the comp and i mounted something to there
[12:10] <drowner_> won't it?
[12:10] <goodhabit> Kate_mins, it means while running some command it will be runned with some locale what you are writing. Means - If you are french, the $ gimp starts french localised gimp. And $LANG= gimp or $LANG=C gimp will start default english one.
[12:10] <travisat> kaboombob: just umount what you mounted
[12:10] <mcisbackuk> drowner: Windows virii/trojans etc are harmless to a linux system
[12:11] <zombie_monkey> bastones: you need to know the model of your wireless card... let me see...
[12:11] <kaboombob> drowner_ should be fine
[12:11] <drowner_> Yeah, i thought so
[12:11] <drowner_> its a zip file
[12:11] <kaboombob> travisat i did that but now the folder is empty
[12:11] <kaboombob> i was the only user on this comp
[12:11] <zombie_monkey> bastones: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Driver/Ndiswrapper#head-6163dc821307bde2883f66a55d7be29ea64a95cf
[12:11] <travisat> kaboombob: have you tried rebooting?
[12:12] <kaboombob> im affraid to
[12:12] <goodhabit> kaboombob, hey :)
[12:12] <bastones> zombie_monkey: the model number is: F5D7050 and it is a wireless G USB adapter
[12:12] <kaboombob> my desktop icons even dissappeared
[12:12] <n00bie> are anyone else experiencing memory leakage in gnome-appearance-properties?
[12:12] <Nom_> Howdy.. I've been googling this problem for the last few minutes, but can't seem to find a solution...  I've uninstalled cups and installed the "classic" lpr stuff, and for some reason lcp status says "waiting for ubuntu to come up".  I've seen a similar error in cups, but since I've gotten rid of that, the solutions didn't seem to apply (install cupsys-bsd).  Does anyone know how to fix this?
[12:12] <goodhabit> kaboombob, why are you doing that? :) Try to add new user now.
[12:12] <kaboombob> goodhabit yes?
[12:12] <travisat> kaboombob: rebooting won't make you lose anything you already lost, I think you just have a file-system mishap
[12:12] <kaboombob> travisat will i still be able to log in?
[12:13] <unop_> bastones, you probably need the rt73/rt73usb module for that adapter
[12:13] <travisat> kaboombob: yes
[12:13] <kaboombob> here goes nothing i guess then
[12:13] <travisat> kaboombob: you just loose all info in your /home directory
[12:13] <goodhabit> kaboombob, I warn you to create new user now.
[12:13] <bastones> unop_: thanks for your response. Where would I find this rt73/rt73usb module?
[12:13] <kaboombob> goodhabit how do i do that?
[12:14] <goodhabit> kaboombob, because you may have troubles with gnome. system - administraton - users and groups.
[12:14] <travisat> goodhabit: why?
[12:14] <kaboombob> goodhabit not why but how?
[12:14] <goodhabit> travisat, because of config files @ $HOME dir.
[12:14] <unop_> bastones,  http://www.ralinktech.com/ralink/Home/Support/Linux.html
[12:15] <goodhabit> kaboombob, systerm  - administration - users and groups as I told :)
[12:15] <zombie_monkey> bastones: look for files rt73.inf, rt73.sys, and rt73.cat in the CD that  ame with it
[12:15] <toresn> hmm
[12:15] <unop_> zombie_monkey, you dont need ndiswrapper for this adapter, it has a native kernel module
[12:16] <ArthurArchnix> Here's a strange problem. I've got a setup such that when a USB mouse is plugged in the touchpad turns off. Except, that if I boot with it plugged in it doesn't turn off. This is new behaviour. Two weeks ago if I booted with a mouse plugged in the touchpad was turned off. Any ideas?
[12:16] <zombie_monkey> unop_: I presumed he tried that
[12:16] <bastones> unop_: so what do I do? apologies but I am incredibily new to this
[12:17] <goodhabit> Good luck all! g2g. Bless you guys ]:)
[12:17] <xen_> no wait! i still have questions!
[12:17] <unop_> bastones,  you need to download http://www.ralinktech.com.tw/data/drivers/2008_0117_RT73_Linux_STA_Drv<IP_ADDRESS>.tar.bz2 -- and follow the instructions in the INSTALL/README file
[12:17] <ArthurArchnix> xen_: So ask them.
[12:17] <xen_> ArthurArchnix i have.
[12:17] <bastones> unop_: ok
[12:18] <xen_> scroll up
[12:18] <xmpp> hi, my ubuntu doesn't power off completely, there is the shutdown logo and animation and then it hangs with a cursor on top left and nothing can be typed, what could be broken/corrupted ?
[12:18] <ArthurArchnix> xen_:  I just joined. I can't scroll up to your problem.
[12:18] <bastones> unop_: should I download that from my Ubuntu laptop under wired connection or download it on my XP computer?
[12:18] <mcisbackuk> xen_: Please retype your question/problem.
[12:18] <xen_> well everytime i try ./configure something, i get "checking for X... configure: error: Can't find X includes. Please check your installation and add the correct paths!"
[12:19] <xen_> however, as goodhabit said before i needed libx11-dev, but i already have that installed
[12:19] <unop_> bastones, i presume you have already installed ubuntu -- if thats the case, you download it to ubuntu and proceed to install it there, it does not work within windows
[12:19] <xen_> i get this error with just about anything im trying to configure
[12:19] <bastones> unop_: ok great
[12:19] <xen_> using Kubuntu 7.10 btw
[12:19] <mcisbackuk> xen_: It could be the configure script expects a different linux distro to Ubuntu, so it may look in a different location to /etc/X11
[12:19] <ArthurArchnix> xen_:  More please. What do you mean, everytime you try to ./configure something. What exactly are you building from source, why, and what instructions are you following?
[12:20] <xen_> well, im just trying to install a network monitor from kde-apps, but ive tried ./configuring other apps like kwin-style-crystal etc, and i get that same error
[12:20] <xen_> from source
[12:21] <ikonia> xen_: what are you trying to build and what error
[12:21] <mcisbackuk> xen_: Are these packages not in Adept??
[12:21] <xen_> yes these pakcages are in adept, but outdated
[12:21] <chetan>  /msg nickserv REGISTER chetan
[12:21] <xen_> for kwn-style-crystal anywhow
[12:21] <mcisbackuk> xen_: Have you filed a bug against them to get them updated for Hardy to the new upstream release?
[12:21] <xen_> @ikonia its when i try ./configure source files i get "checking for X... configure: error: Can't find X includes. Please check your installation and add the correct paths!"
[12:22] <xen_> mcisbackuk well how do we know this is a bug already?
[12:22] <xen_> it might just be im missing something
[12:22] <chetan>  /msg nickserv IDENTIFY chetan
[12:22] <ikonia> xen_: have you got the libs/headers installed, what is filing pkg_config ?
[12:22] <ArthurArchnix> xen_: Could be that you're missing some dev files. Try this, if it doesn't work, just uninstall by repeating the command with remove instead of install.
[12:22] <mcisbackuk> xen_: As I said, it's probably the configure script, have a look see what the X11 directory is pointing to it should be /etc/X11
[12:22] <ArthurArchnix> sudo apt-get install x-window-system-dev
[12:22] <xen_> sorry ikonia, im dont know much about this, but ive tried installing libx11-dev, but adept says its already installed
[12:22] <ikonia> mcisbackuk: why would it be looking for libs / headers in /etc/X11
[12:23] <huhmz> hello. Can i see which packages in a repo has another package as its dependency?
[12:23] <ikonia> xen_ can you put the output of configure into a pastebin pleas.e
[12:23] <unop__> mcisbackuk, i think you mean /usr/lib/x* ... ?
[12:23] <xen_> ok
[12:23] <xen_> !paste
[12:23] <ubotu> pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the #ubuntu channel topic)
[12:23] <mcisbackuk> unop_: Thats the one lol
[12:23] <ArthurArchnix> xen_: If the above command doesn't work please follow ikonia's instructions.
[12:23] <ikonia> ArthurArchnix: I suspect its pkgconfig complaining, but we'll see
[12:24] <xen_> iKonia : http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/53950/
[12:24] <ArthurArchnix> ikonia: I don't know much about insalling from source... I'm just going by what solutions seem to have worked for people with similar problems in the forums... eg., see here: http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-75143.html
[12:24] <xen_> and this is the output when i try ./configure kwin-style-crystal, uno momento just gota paste it
[12:24] <bullgard4> !wxWidgets
[12:24] <mcisbackuk> Gusy this is a stupid question, but has anyone else noticed that Gutsy's install Cd still has 7.04's example files on the disk? and so has Hardy?
[12:24] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about wxwidgets - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[12:24] <kaboombob> can somebody tell me what i was supposed to mount before i logged out?
[12:25] <travisat> kaboombob: don't mount anything
[12:25] <unop__> xen_,  is x-dev installed?
[12:25] <travisat> kaboombob: adn don't just logout reboot
[12:25] <xen_> unop_ yes
[12:25] <kaboombob> travisat i did reboot
[12:25] <ArthurArchnix> xen_:  What about x-window-system-dev?
[12:26] <mcisbackuk> join #ubuntu-motu
[12:26] <mcisbackuk> oops
[12:26] <xen_> ill just check that
[12:26] <kaboombob> travisat can you tell me what the mount command i was given earlier was? cause it worked i just mounted in the wrong place
[12:26] <unop__> xen_, i think you should do this -- sudo apt-get install --reinstall x-dev libx11-dev kdebase-dev
[12:26] <ArthurArchnix> xen_: Others have reported in forums that that package solved their problem
[12:26] <ikonia> that doesn't look like a pkgconfig complaint, that looks like -I/include/path is not populated
[12:27] <dellph> hello ppl
[12:27] <xen_> brb 2 secs just installing these
[12:28] <kaboombob> travisat it should have the text "/dev/???" in it
[12:28] <travisat> kaboombob: oh I dunno
[12:28] <ArthurArchnix> ikonia: Everything I can find about your problem suggests a missing dev package. Another post, here http://curves79lady.wordpress.com/2008/01/22/configure-error-cant-find-x-includes/
[12:28] <xen_> E: Couldn't find package x-window-system-dev
[12:28] <dellph> i have a problem with permission. when i try to run this command sudo auth-client-config. i get an permission error: ERROR: uid is 0 but '/' is owned by 1000. any tips to guru.
[12:28] <dellph> .
[12:28] <dellph> ?
[12:28] <unop__> xen_, that's a non-existant package
[12:29] <xen_> @unop_ just dl the sudo apt-get install --reinstall x-dev libx11-dev kdebase-dev, have to install 80mb's of stuff
[12:29] <bastones> unop_: I have downloaded the thing and I am confused and do not know a clue of what to do... I read readme in both folders and I don't know a thing to do
[12:29] <travisat> sudo mount -t vfat  /dev/???  /whatever/where/you/are/mounting
[12:29] <FFighter> does anyone know of a Terminal Server client for linux ?
[12:29] <unop__> xen_, wow - errm, ok take kdebase-dev out -  sudo apt-get install --reinstall x-dev libx11-dev
[12:29] <travisat> kaboombob: you get that?
[12:29] <naresh> hello
[12:29] <kaboombob> travisat thanks yeah that was it
[12:30] <unop__> xen_, you probably need the kdebase-dev anyway since you are building kde packages
[12:30] <travisat> kaboombob: its nice having a long irc history :)
[12:30] <unop__> bastones, there are clear instructions in the README file
[12:30] <dellph> FFighter: its can be found in ubuntu application/internet/
[12:30] <Nom_> ok new problem... trying lprng instead... it thinks the printer is up and running, but nothing is being sent to the printer.  echo "test" > /dev/ttyS0 yields data, so it's definately an issue in that config... anyone familiar with this? :/
[12:30] <kaboombob> travisat yeah that why i have mine set for long time so i can go back and copy what i did to fix a problem
