[11:09] <Slart> bryan_: it depends a little on what the driver is supposed to do.. sometimes the driver itself doesn't do a lot... sometimes it has to be fast to let whatever hardware it's written for work at it's best (graphics drivers)
[11:09] <spud|work> firice20: do you mean software features? i knew somebody would say "freedom" and "open source".
[11:09] <frogzoo> firice20: an logo that's predominantly orange?
[11:10] <spud|work> what do you mean by features (assuming you dont care about the ideology behind it all)
[11:10] <firice20> XD
[11:10] <firice20> ok thanks
[11:10] <StFS> Hi. Is there a repository for Firefox 3.1 for Hardy (8.04)?
[11:10] <Slart> firice20: I would say that being open source is pretty unique if you come from a windows world
[11:10] <firice20> yea
[11:11] <bryan_> firice20: you are asking a very broad question. its like tell me about tv. do you start with channels, good shows or the tv itself... etc
[11:11] <firice20> i like it
[11:11] <Bhavesh2177> anyone know how to disable PEN drive mount?
[11:11] <BriGuy> you mean how to unmount it?
[11:11] <BriGuy> you could try the umount command
[11:11] <zvacet> StFS: you can try with http://ubuntuzilla.com/
[11:12] <syntax> The fact you can sit there and look in a terminal and goto a file thats so deep into your harddrive and moveing it onto the desktop with a command is amazeing..Even tho people use to it but still
[11:12] <Slart> firice20: apart from that there aren't any big differences between linux/windows and so on from a users perspective.
[11:12] <Myrtti> firice20: try asking in #ubuntu-offtopic
[11:12] <Bhavesh2177> i want to prevent normal user to mount pen drive
[11:12] <Myrtti> moving on
[11:12] <firice20> hmm ok srry about my questions hehe
[11:13] <Bhavesh2177> BriGuy: Disable automount of pen drive
[11:13] <BriGuy> so anyone know if I can use grep to output a line that contains a string AND just the next line?
[11:13] <Slart> BriGuy: yes
[11:13] <Slart> BriGuy: or sed might work too
[11:14] <Myrtti> BriGuy: "grep -A 1"
[11:14] <BriGuy> thanks
[11:14] <BriGuy> Bhavesh2177, not sure on your questions
[11:15] <Bhavesh2177> BriGuy: if normal user attache pen drive to USB port it gets autometically mounted, so i want to restrict the automount.
[11:15] <BriGuy> Bhavesh2177, yeah sorry I understand the question..not sure on the solution :)
[11:16] <Bhavesh2177> BriGuy: its ok
[11:16] <BriGuy> Bhavesh2177, I did a quick search on google for ubuntu disable automount..your solution is here

[11:23] <ReX0r> whenever some1 comes online (or when a new song is started) it appears in my upper right corner. When I'm watching something (in say, VLC, fullscreen), this appears and slows down video playback. I either have to disable eye-candy (nothing instead of normal) and lose ability to alt-tab or change pidgin settings (I usually don't have music playing during video). But where in pidgin can I change this setting?

[11:23] <grawity> ReX0r: The popups are displayed by notify-osd.
[11:24] <ReX0r> and how does that work?
[11:24] <grawity> ReX0r: You can remove notify-osd and it will switch to the old style, non-transparent, notifications
[11:24] <Preplexed> I have a machine from work that was being thrown out.  It was part of a network.  Trying to instal Linux on it but it wont boot from disk drive and I dont know how to get to dos an you help please?

[11:24] <grawity> ReX0r: Yeah, look for libnotify in Pidgin's Plugins.
[11:25] <grouse> @kipi: oof - French :p, can you pastebin your sources.list
[11:25] <grawity> ReX0r: Also, the compizconfig-settings-manager app can let you fine-tune the eye-candy instead of just choosing none/some/a lot.
[11:25] <grawity> !ccsm
[11:26] <kipi> grouse: don't like french  ? ;) http://fr.pastebin.ca/1523776

[11:42] <Rods_Tiger> excellent
[11:42] <BriGuy> calwig, if your looking for an easy gui way of doing it just do gksudo nautilus and go to the folder. and do it the way you tried before.
[11:42] <rski> Rods_Tiger: yes

[11:43] <cycrosism> TuckLive: do you know where adobe flash player is installed
[11:44] <calwig> BriGuy: did that too, it allowed me to see the file/folder properties which could be changed. However I would have to change each one manually, since the permissions arent passed down.
[11:44] <Callum_> Rods_Tiger: depends on how useful you want it to be =P
[11:44] <qum^> i can't see users here :((
[11:44] <qum^> only main chat

[12:00] <bret> resno, I have just recently switched from fedora to ubuntu, but I was not able to operate anything Linux could not see in a virtual environment
[12:00] <resno> bret: i am asking about virtulizing windows inside of ubunut
[12:01] <grouse> @Paul68: I'm not sure you can modify the base console resolution. I would suggest running some form of xserver with a terminal running in that
[12:01] <grawity> VirtualBox supports both Windows and Linux, as both host and guest.
[12:01] <tobylane> the program generally deals with that
[12:01] <tobylane> like vmware makes all network connections come from a product called vmware
[12:02] <tobylane> so no, get ndiswrapper

[12:05] <zetheroo> when attempting to share a folder from my USB HDD on the network a message appears in relation to error 255 ... the instructions is to basically get the admin to edit smb.conf to allow this share to occur ... imo this needs to be re-thought ... or is there a samba GUI that will allow this setting to be changed?
[12:05] <grawity> zetheroo: system-config-samba may help
[12:05] <bret> also swat
[12:06] <zetheroo> grawity: have you ever encountered this error?
[12:06] <zetheroo> bret: swat? ... where you talking to me?
[12:07] <bret> sorry yes zetheroo.  samba web administration tool.  You can run it locally or over any network connection to configure samba
[12:07] <zetheroo> bret: ok thanks
[12:09] <zetheroo> I still think this needs to change ... it doesn't help the migration to Linux to have this stuff pop-up on noobs .... I have no issues with editing smb.conf ... but I have been using Linux for 3 years ... if a person was trying Linux a out and ran into this it would really be frustrating ...
[12:10] <ace> Can someone help? I installed Ubuntu 9.04 on an Acer Aspire 3641wxmi laptop and I'm not getting any sound
[12:10] <psycho_oreos> zetheroo, there's a thing called samba-swat
[12:10] <resno> ace: this is a common issue, try first adusting the volume. if nothing plug in headphones and see if you have sound.
[12:11] <richardcavell> Can anyone tell me what I can do to bind a function key so that it will kill the process hl.exe (which is running under wine)?
[12:11] <zetheroo> psycho_oreos: is that what bret was talking about?
[12:11] <troythetechguy> I need to move a bunch of files to a 2nd HDD, but I need to zip the files so they'll fit on HDD #2.  However, I prefer not to zip the files I'm leaving on HDD #1. Using pipes, is there a way to zip the file on the fly before it's copied to HDD#2, but leaving the original unzipped?
[12:11] <ace> resno: I tried adjusting the volume already. I'll try headphones and let you know
[12:11] <bret> zetheroo, I agree, however Linux has come such a long way in the past 4 or 5 years.  I can only imagine where it will be in another few
[12:12] <tobylane> troy yes, output file on the second one
[12:12] <psycho_oreos> zetheroo, don't know I wasn't really following the conversation.. but there's many other tools.. webmin is another
[12:12] <tobylane> even guis do that
[12:13] <zetheroo> bret: I agree fully with you ... it just seems like a GUI for controling something as common as ones network shares environment would have been bundled in a distro like Ubuntu ...
[12:14] <ace> resno: Headphones work. Why wouldn't the speakers work?
[12:14] <resno> zetheroo: bret the issue is that the majority of things inside linux require configuration of a file
[12:14] <resno> ace: no idea. i have two laptops, one works the other doesnt
[12:14] <bret> yeah you would think.  The best distro I have found as far as running a network server imo is Suse Enterprise server.  Has a very nice gui for everything...  Ubuntu server may have similar gui's but I have nott looked at it
[12:15] <kindofabuzz> bret, server does not have a gui, no need
[12:15] <ace> resno: So it just may be that I wont be able to use internal speakers?
[12:15] <wht> ini
[12:15] <zetheroo> resno: of course ... but these configurations can be done through a GUI ... and in the case of Ubuntu Desktop they need to be done that way ..
[12:15] <wht> ih
[12:15] <wht> i
[12:16] <resno> ace: thats been my experince. and i have tried getting it to work and have never been able to make it
[12:16] <ace> resno: Thank you
[12:16] <resno> ace: np
[12:17] <zetheroo> gosh I am so glad I finally am making the upgrade to Ubuntu 9.04 :)
[12:17] <zetheroo> Its pretty nice ..
[12:18] <richardcavell> How do I bind a bash script to a function key?
[12:20] <koltroll> I don't remember which ones I spoke to last night, but yea.. the memtest showed that the ram was fucked up. Only had the computer for like 3 weeks ;(
[12:20] <koltroll> Anyhow, ordered new ram now.. and doubled it while I was at it.
[12:23] <legend2440> ace: have you tried alsa instead of pulseaudio
[12:23] <zetheroo> koltroll: what kinda computer is it?  I reckon it SHOULD go on the warranty, but since i'm leaving the country in 6 days and really need the netbook for the trip, it's a no no going back to the store with it.
[12:24] <koltroll> Since I reckon all they'll to is "since we're incompetent we'll send this to Kenya were they'll have a look at it!"
[12:25] <cycrosism> TuckLive: Back
[12:25] <zetheroo> koltroll: oh what? ... couldn't you just bring it in and get the RAM sorted out over the counter?
[12:25] <Guest42010> How can I upgrade from 32 bit system to a 64 bit? anyone who know?
[12:25] <Myrtti> Guest42010: reinstalling
[12:25] <resno> when virtualizing windows, can windows use devices linux does not have working drivers for?
[12:26] <Myrtti> Guest42010: you can *not* upgrade, you need to reinstall.
[12:26] <koltroll> zetheroo, nah the store I bought it at is to small.  I am curious ... what kind of RAM was in there?
[12:27] <koltroll> zetheroo, I'm not sure dude :/ I've tried to read the specs (since I haven't gotten the time to open the computer yet) but it just states "DDR2" more or less.
[12:27] <Guest42010> Well how do I reinstall the system to be 64 bits? Because when I put in the ubuntu64 bits version it just freeze.
[12:27] <koltroll> However I bought SO-Dimm 2GB DDR2 PC2-5300 667MHZ Kingston
[12:28] <bret> trying to restart inetd.  running command sudo /etc/init.d/xinetd restart and /etc/init.d/inetd restart.  just get command not found.   How do I restart inetd?
[12:28] <koltroll> since people buying it commented that it "worked great" on the same asus I have.
[12:28] <zetheroo> koltroll: oh ok .. I thought you had had a glance at it ... I am just interested to know what they ship with those machines .. but yeah, you should be good with Kingston :)
[12:28] <koltroll> yea I sure hope so man. I don't have time to get problems now!

[12:54] <tobylane> its iplayer/kontiki drm
[12:55] <Dr-Willis-TCL> ubuntunewbie:  i use 'winff' to convert mkv to other formats normally
[12:55] <om26er> how to change totem fast forward interval
[12:55] <r3l1c> where are the desktop settings stored on a livecd.
[12:55] <r3l1c> /usr/local?
[12:56] <Dr-Willis-TCL> r3l1c:  they would be in the live cd users home directory most likely
[12:56] <r3l1c> Dr-Willis-TCL:  the live cd users directory is create on boot up... Created from where?
[12:56] <Dr-Willis-TCL> r3l1c:  perhaps from /etc/skel
[12:56] <r3l1c> its empty
[12:57] <r3l1c> I check there first
[12:57] <r3l1c> :)
[12:57] <Dr-Willis-TCL> r3l1c:  thats a 'skeleton' template directory for all newly made users no a normal system.
[12:57] <pilkanozna> hi can any1 help me with adding server name to this weird irc? pl0x in new
[12:57] <Dr-Willis-TCL> r3l1c:  its possible its using some gnome defaults then. What setting are you looking for exactly?
[12:57] <Dr-Willis-TCL> pilkanozna:  what irc client are you using? whats 'weird' about it?
[12:57] <r3l1c> Desktop background. I did find backgrounds (the folder) but no files that link to it...
[12:57] <pilkanozna> well
[12:58] <pilkanozna> irc xchat-gnome
[12:58] <cordor> liitu: was it working before? do you remember what have you done causing that problem? else you can always write your own xorg.
[12:58] <rek> what video card can i buy for linux?
[12:58] <pilkanozna> i'm new here i mean in ubuntu etc.
[12:58] <pilkanozna> well any1 can help me on private?
[12:59] <darkhamm> how can i create a desktop launcher or a custom launcher bar in kde?
[12:59] <Dr-Willis-TCL> pilkanozna:  it may be a good idea to read some basic irc docs for your irc client. Most have some sort of server settings in the menus.  I perfer 'xchat' to xchat-gnome
[12:59] <bazhang> pilkanozna, ask here
[12:59] <ubuntunewbie> Dr-Willis-TC :I am using 8.04 hardy
[12:59] <pilkanozna> i had this gnome with new ubuntu, but ill find normal xchat, thanks
[12:59] <r3l1c> Dr-Willis-TCL:  Maybe I just need to cp a file with the same name as the background. It just sounds to simple. thanks
[12:59] <pilkanozna> ill come back here if i still got problem
[13:00] <pilkanozna> thanks :)
[13:00] <liitu> cordor: hmm not really sure but I remeber that I installed some software for ATI Graphics Card
[13:00] <ubuntunewbie> Dr-Willis-TC : it doesn't accept hardy

[13:06] <pilkanozna> i need to save some of commands lol
[13:07] <djisamsoe> pilkanozna: :) check ~/.bash_history
[13:07] <Rods_Tiger> I'd like to dedicate an old computer to being a digital photo frame. Is there any such dedicated software in ubuntu for this task?
[13:07] <pilkanozna> djisamsoe: what is that?
[13:07] <manish> Hi Everyone
[13:08] <Dr-Willis-TCL> many photo apps can do slideshows.. or write your own script. perhaps..
[13:08] <cannonball> Good morning, I need a little help understanding something regarding the sequence of services starting at bootup.  I'm a long time Mdk/RH/CentOS user, so the way things work on Ubuntu are foreign to me.
[13:08] <ace> bryan: I googled it and found it on this site.... http://smurfonspreadsheets.wordpress.com/2009/07/04/acer-aspire-one-ubuntu-9-04-sound-hell/
[13:08] <djisamsoe> pilkanozna: check the file ~/.bash_history to see the history of your terminal commands
[13:08] <Dr-Willis-TCL> cannonball:  you may want to check the docs for 'upstart' its the ubuntu sysv replacement.
[13:08] <suigeneris> does anybody know why touchpad is enabled automatically a while after I disable it using gsynaptics?
[13:09] <manish> Can anyone help regarding Cups Server
[13:09] <emcpn> #ubuntu-gr
[13:09] <manish> Can anyone help me regarding cups ?
[13:10] <Halitech> !ask | manish
[13:10] <cannonball> My home directory is an nfs mount, my user is local.  When the machine boots up, I get the gui login screen.  I can login, but then it complains about not being able to find things.  The reason is because it has not mounted the nfs /home yet.  I kill X, switch over to tty1, login there, and part of the login process it starts nfs-common and at that point mounts /home.
[13:11] <cannonball> I'll google for documents that Dr-Willis-TCL mentioned.  Is there an relatively straightforward way to move nfs forward in the boot process so that it occurs before xdm initializes?
[13:11] <ace> bryan: did you have the same problem?
[13:11] <manish> ubottu: I have install a local printer HP 5100 (the package installed through synaptic package manager) after that I had switched off the printer as i din't needed but, when I started it again the printer is not installed so, where it may gone ?
[13:12] <bryan> ace: same problem, its not quite working. the sound didnt work on the previous linux version
[13:12] <bryan> ace: soluttion not working yet...
[13:12] <Dr_Willis> cannonball:  the s##service name. the ## is the order they start.. the #'s mean somthing. but i forget what..   xdm/gdm is normally one of  last service anyway. OR you could disable gdm/xdm/kdm and just launch it from rc.local - perhaps put a 10 sec 'sleep' befor you launch xdm
[13:12] <ace> bryan: did you restart?
[13:12] <bryan> ace: sure did.
[13:13] <manish> I have install a local printer HP 5100 (the package installed through synaptic package manager) after that I had switched off the printer as i din't needed but, when I started it again the printer is not installed so, where it may gone ? How to check installed printers ?
[13:13] <Dr_Willis> manish:  theres a menu item to configure printers  system -> admin -> printers (i think)
[13:14] <ace> bryan: did you go into sound control and click on preferences? Make sure your "front" volume is all the way up
[13:14] <Dr_Willis> manish:  most of my printers all auto-configure if i plug them in.. perhaps  Unplyg/plug it back in.
[13:15] <bryan> ace: ill check...
[13:15] <r3l1c> Dr_Willis:  Just replacing the image seems to work .. Just so you know.. thanks
[13:15] <r3l1c> again
[13:15] <Dr_Willis> r3l1c:  i dont even rember what the original problem was.. :)
[13:15] <manish> Dr_Willis: It want show me installed printers (I had installed 1 local & two network printers)
[13:16] <r3l1c> how to replace the background on a live cd

[13:28] <Master_> how do i configure my sys to run as it did when i installed it?
[13:28] <nibbler> ichat: there is, you can hook up almost anything with ldap, active dircetory or whatever...
[13:28] <th0r> EEMPHASISS: there is a code for that...where you put in the number, put a comma ahead of the number. If I remember correctly (very old knowledge) each comma you add will delay two seconds.

[13:31] <Master_> how do i configure my sys to run as it did when i installed it using ubuntu-9,04?
[13:31] <th0r> EEMPHASISS: do you initialize the modem correctly? It has to be taken off 'receive' and put on 'send', there is an AT command for that if I remember correctly
[13:31] <xangua> Wast3d2009: there is no ubuntu-LTS-9.04
[13:31] <EEMPHASISS> th0r, nibbler ("nibbler's so cute") will try that ("w").

[13:32] <xangua> Wast3d2009: if you need a recent program use a recent distribution, you could search in launchpad and see if there is a repository for hardy
[13:32] <bazhang> Wast3d2009, you would need to upgrade
[13:32] <EEMPHASISS> th0r, just used the default strings out of the repository 'box'.  Init params are "Z &FE&D2S7=120 &C0 M1L0"

[13:41] <th0r> Wast3d2009: 2.6 is in the jaunty repo, which means you can download it from packages.ubuntu.com. But since you are runniing hardy I would probably opt for compiling my own from source instead. But if you haven't done that before, you might want to try the package first
[13:41] <myname_> is there a way to see the installed packages with the live cd?
[13:41] <Matr|X> i did this solution http://paste.ubuntu.com/250807/

[13:48] <Dr_Willis> ubuntunewbie2:   depends on the audio codec the thing is using. You may need some extra libs..  run the acidemux command from a termianal look for any error messagtes that may give a clue. and/or try 'winff'

[13:50] <Dr_Willis> ubuntunewbie2:  i tend to use 'winff' more and more these days.. and avidumux less and less..
[13:50] <edellion> Is anyone speak russian?
[13:50] <th0r> Wast3d2009: it is the backports repos that you need to add....about 3/4 of the way down the page

[13:50] <earthen> I've deleted items on my Garmin GPS and now they ubuntu just created a .trash folder  and moved the files there, and when I click on empty trash these files are not removed. how do i remove them. if i try and delete them from the folder they just reappear
[13:50] <EEMPHASISS> laeeqashahid: also, start up your System / Administration / System Monitor & check CPU usage.  If CPU usage stays low, then something is just waiting to timeout.  Can anyone help laeeqashahid, if CPU goes high displaying a menu?
[13:50] <Dr_Willis> Matr|X:  try the 'ls' command, not 'dir'
[13:50] <ubuntunewbie2> Dr_Willis: I had install winff but I can't find any avi format converting
[13:51] <Matr|X> ok
[13:51] <ShapeShifter499> bye

[13:51] <jrib> earthen: I would just use « rm » in a terminal
[13:51] <Matr|X> with ls -ali command
[13:51] <Dr_Willis> ubuntunewbie2:  i convert stuff to/from avi with it all the time.  avi is just a container.. it depends onwhat codecs you want to use for the most part.
[13:51] <NickUK`> Hello, i am having a few issues with AdHoc network sending packets
[13:51] <NickUK`> or the other system not recieving packets
[13:51] <Matr|X> http://paste.ubuntu.com/250806/
[13:52] <Matr|X> this is the fdisk -l command with /boot/grub/menu.lst http://paste.ubuntu.com/250806/
[13:52] <earthen> jrib, thats an idea but my god there has to be an easer way to delete files that using the command line
[13:52] <erUSUL> Matr|X: you want to remove the weird directory ?
[13:52] <ubuntunewbie2> Dr_Willis: I dont understand what do you mean . Using avidemux , it can't decode MP4A audio.Which winff doesn't even show anything at all
[13:52] <Matr|X> nop
[13:52] <Matr|X> i nwant to change the name

[13:52] <kindofabuzz> once ubuntu live is installed to a usb stick using unetbootin and then booted up, do i just keep using it as a live usb or should i actually install it on the usb stick?
[13:52] <edellion> ok, so is it help-chat?
[13:53] <Master_> anyone free to help
[13:53] <bazhang> edellion, correct
[13:53] <phreck> yup
[13:53] <phreck> ask your questions
[13:53] <Matr|X> when grub boot ,, he cant see the winxp parttions caz its strange name :$
[13:53] <bazhang> kindofabuzz, you can make it persistent
[13:53] <myname_> kindofabuzz, i would use it as a live stick
[13:53] <Dr_Willis> ubuntunewbie2:  its possible you need some extra libs like 'libfaad' for the mp4a,    ive had to track down some extra libs befor for some videos i converted.
[13:53] <earthen> kindofabuzz, you don't want to really install to a USB stick it would kill you usb stick pretty fast
[13:53] <Dr_Willis> kindofabuzz:  unetbootin works as a live 'cd' on a stick
[13:53] <Master_> phreck: how do i restart my settings to default?
[13:54] <kindofabuzz> earthen, basicaly because as live it runs from ram and persistent it would r/w all the time?
[13:54] <Dr_Willis> kindofabuzz:   the ubuntu tools can install to stick and have a persistant home/save file also.
[13:54] <bazhang> Master_, a system restore?
[13:54] <Master_> yep
[13:54] <phreck> Master_:What settings
[13:54] <ubuntunewbie2> Dr_Willis: I had libfaad installed too
[13:54] <Matr|X> Dr_Willis
[13:55] <ubuntunewbie2> Dr_Willis: I think I had install almost all of the code
[13:55] <Matr|X> plz help
[13:55] <earthen> kindofabuzz, well usb is flash ram witch has only a limited amout of writes you can do to it, when ubuntu is there as a live os it does no writes to it
[13:55] <Dr_Willis> ubuntunewbie2:  could be some other libs. I dont  have all the codecs/libs memorized.
[13:55] <Master_> i installed a theme didnt know how to change it bk to my other theme so i unintalled it and know my sys slowly crashing.
[13:55] <kindofabuzz> earthen,  gotcha
[13:55] <Matr|X> eny help
[13:55] <edellion> is anybody has a problem with gNeur?
[13:56] <Dr_Willis> ubuntunewbie2:  perhaps theck the forums for the avidmux tool. searcing for that codec.   ages ago i had to recompile memcoder, or somthing  because the default dident have support for all the audio formats.
[13:56] <earthen> kindofabuzz, but if you were to do a actual install ubuntu would be using it a cash ram a so on. it would reduce the life od your USB stick allot
[13:56] <bazhang> http://www.debianadmin.com/backup-and-restore-your-ubuntu-system-using-sbackup.html Master_
[13:56] <jthing> arthen: depends on the flash ram. CRAY is now offering as a alternative internal soreage option
[13:56] <ubuntunewbie2> Dr_Willis: I just use ubuntu a month ago , knowing nothing about compiling
[13:56] <Matr|X> helpppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppp
[13:56] <ubuntunewbie2> Dr_Willis: :-(

[13:57] <bazhang> !helpme | Matr|X
[13:57] <bellosguardo> I'm trying to upgrade my ubuntu from feisty, whihc apparenlty is not supported anymore, what should I do?
[13:57] <edellion> what cind of help do you need?
[13:57] <Matr|X> bazhang
[13:57] <ziroday> !upgrade | bellosguardo follow the instructions
[13:57] <Matr|X> no body can help then
[13:57] <earthen> Matr|X, try maybe to reinstall the package
[13:57] <bazhang> Matr|X, be patient and stop saying help me repeatedly
[13:58] <Matr|X> look the name of the windows partation file:///media/%04
[13:58] <Matr|X> eny help to change it to diskl
[13:58] <Matr|X> disk
[13:59] <Dr_Willis> ubuntunewbie2:  it could be the support programs (mencoder/ffmpeg) may not have support for that format, I use the ones from medibuntu repos if possible. could be support libs missing. I do know I convert mkv to other formats here all the time.    You will just have to do some research.
[13:59] <earthen> Matr|X, I have the same problem if you find out let me know
[13:59] <aurilliance> <not a question> WOW! Congrats ubuntu devs, the printer driver handling in ubuntu just blew me away, plug in a printer, <15 seconds later, correct drivers and printing happily.
[13:59] <ubuntunewbie2> Dr_Willis: can't find anything about mp3a at http://avidemux.org/admForum/index.php
[13:59] <kindofabuzz> earthen, so as a "live usb", can i actually install stuff and will it be saved?
[13:59] <Master_> ok i opend up sbackup but it crashed emmidiatly
[13:59] <Dr_Willis> kindofabuzz:  IF you do a setup with a peristant save/home - it can work.. but unetbootin does NOT set that up.
[14:00] <aurilliance> q: what's the name of the site where you can read laptop tests with ubuntu?
[14:00] <Dr_Willis> kindofabuzz:  the directions at pendrivelinux, and the make usb-disk  in the ubuntu menus can do that.
[14:00] <earthen> kindofabuzz, yes I think it does save and do updates and stuff
[14:00] <kindofabuzz> Dr_Willis, so without persistant i can't install anything right?
[14:00] <leaf-sheep> aurilliance: http://www.linux-laptop.net/
[14:00] <j2k> Master_: Try http://linuxfud.wordpress.com/2007/02/14/how-to-reset-ubuntugnome-settings-to-defaults-without-re-installing/
[14:00] <aurilliance> leaf-sheep: ty
[14:00] <Dr_Willis> kindofabuzz:  you can install. it wont save the stuff once you reboot.
[14:00] <Dr_Willis> kindofabuzz:  ya could save the debs to the flash drive if you wanted I guess. :)
[14:00] <kindofabuzz> Dr_Willis, hmm, kinda pointless
[14:01] <kindofabuzz> Dr_Willis, yeah
[14:01] <Dr_Willis> kindofabuzz:  not really.. depends on your needs.
[14:01] <earthen> kindofabuzz, Dr_Willis, I know it save your keyring password I'm not sure about other things
[14:01] <TripH> Fuckyeah i love linux.
[14:01] <Dr_Willis> kindofabuzz:  making the persistant 'save' file with the tools can take a much  longer time then  the whole install. :)
[14:01] <TripH> how do i use it?
[14:01] <bazhang> TripH, watch the language
[14:01] <TripH> >.> <.<
[14:01] <TripH> Yessir sorry sir
[14:02] <Dr_Willis> kindofabuzz:  i had to tweak the persistt type install also to get it to properly use the nvidia drivers.
[14:02] <TripH> :D

[14:21] <Antaranian> bazhang: have you ever used it ? (spidermonkey)
[14:21] <bazhang> Antaranian, the package spidermonkey-bin ? have not, though feel free to ask the channel
[14:22] <bazhang> ubuntunewbie2, vlc will play .mkv fyi
[14:22] <stelt> macros howto? i just want to interact with an app and record the interaction. Then replay the interaction (on a new version of the same app)
[14:22] <Antaranian> bazhang: aha, I'm about spidermonkey-bin package , but I'm not sure it's the right channel
[14:23] <ubuntunewbie2> bazhang : yep , it does play , but I wanted to convert it to .avi
[14:23] <insomen4o_> help please; can't install directx9 in wine
[14:23] <td123> insomen4o_: google it
[14:24] <bazhang> ubuntunewbie2, you want to burn it to dvd for external dvd player? any reason other than that?

[14:24] <bazhang> !find h264
[14:25] <mobi-sheep> I'm curious.  I do use rsync occasionally but I find that it's a daemon and is executed at boot time. Does anybody know if I'll be able to run rsync if I toggle off the daemon?
[14:25] <mobi-sheep> ubuntunewbie2: VLC can do convert on-the-fly.
[14:25] <ubuntunewbie2> bazhang : I installed most of them already.I am able to convert h264 to xivd but the audio doesn't work
[14:25] <ubuntunewbie2> bazhang : ACC mp4a
[14:25] <phisher1> mobi-sheep: you can rsync over ssh rather than connecting to an rsync daemon
[14:25] <bazhang> ubuntunewbie2, aac?
[14:25] <ubuntunewbie2> bazhang : how to convert using vlc?
[14:26] <ubuntunewbie2> bazhang : yeh , AAC audio file mp4a format
[14:26] <Yodaguin> Hello...I was wondering if anyone new a command that would give me realtime folder size...sort of a tail -f but for watching folder size....I wish a DF -f was available
[14:26] <mobi-sheep> phisher1: Meaning I can't use it locally? (other than using localhost).
[14:26] <phisher1> yes, you can use it locally
[14:27] <phisher1> rsync -avz user@<IP_ADDRESS>:/path /new/path
[14:28] <mobi-sheep> phisher1: That's localhost. I mean locally. Eg... rsync -avz --progress ~/.folderOne ~/.folderTwo.
[14:28] <mobi-sheep> phisher1: Either way, I'll experiment and find out. :)
[14:28] <vagothcpp> I am purchasing a SCSI enabled motherboard and was wondering LsiLogic or BusLogic for Ubuntu 9.04
[14:28] <phisher1>        Local:  rsync [OPTION...] SRC... [DEST]
[14:29] <bazhang> ubuntunewbie2, you got the ffmpeg from medibuntu.org ?
[14:29] <rchap83> Hey guys.. I am having trouble with my sound on my pc. I just got a new one(not really newER, just better than my old). And instead of opting for Windows, I decided to actually learn something new. 9.04 Linux
[14:29] <phisher1> never tried, but the man page suggests you can do just a local copy..
[14:29] <rchap83> sound worked fine at start, but like 40 mins ago just quit working
[14:29] <ubuntunewbie2> bazhang : I am sure I had install . how to check whether I install it correctly ?
[14:30] <Yodaguin> I am running mondo and it is erroring out on me, broken pipe issue and I want to see a folder actually increasing in size in real time...anyone no a way to do this via terminal?
[14:30] <grouse> @phisher1 have you checked your sounds settings to make sure it isn't muted?
[14:30] <bazhang> ubuntunewbie2, that is odd, it seems not to be there anymore for jaunty
[14:31] <Yodaguin>  isuppose I could just repeat df -h, but its a pain..lol
[14:31] <ubuntunewbie2> bazhang : I am using hardy 8.04
[14:31] <bazhang> ubuntunewbie2, then it is there
[14:32] <ubuntunewbie2> bazhang : I am really out of idea now

[14:32] <grouse> hi
[14:32] <bazhang> http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/linux-software-2/gui-h.264-converter-for-ubuntu-615624/
[14:32] <gondor> can I get some help with gyachi here ?
[14:32] <vagothcpp> Does ubuntu support LsiLogic SCSI?
[14:32] <bazhang> ubuntunewbie2, you need to remove the version you have and install the one from medibuntu.org
[14:33] <gondor> can I get some help with gyachi here ?
[14:33] <bazhang> gondor, need an actual question
[14:34] <J_Litewski> hello, i'm trying to link my google calendar with Evolution and am failing horribly at it.
[14:34] <mobi-sheep> Anybody using noip2 experience any issues with executing a script after successful interval updates? Or were able to get their script running after a successful interval updates?
[14:34] <bazhang> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GoogleCalendarWithEvolution J_Litewski you see this?
[14:35] <rchap83> can anyone help me out with a little sound problem?
[14:35] <J_Litewski> ty bazhang, didn't see this in my google searches
[14:35] <Megra_> !ask | rchap83
[14:35] <grouse> @rchap83 - what's the problem?
[14:36] <rchap83> Well, Im totally new to Linux 9.04, when I first installed it, my sound was working fine. Then like 2 hours ago, my sound just quit working for some reason
[14:36] <bazhang> rchap83, watching youtube and listening to mp3 simultaneously? playing a game in wine?
[14:37] <ubuntunewbie2> bazhang : I dont quite get it here<EMAIL_ADDRESS>[14:37] <gondor> here is my question if I may.... how come after uninstalling gyachi and installing it again my settings are unchanged ?
[14:37] <rchap83> well when i got the sound working, I was listening to youtube while surfing the net. tried to get a game working but that was a flop, so I gave up on that. Maybe it had something to do with the game I was tryin to load up?
[14:37] <bazhang> http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/linux-software-2/gui-h.264-converter-for-ubuntu-615624/ ubuntunewbie2
[14:38] <grouse> @rchap83, have you checked you haven't accidentally muted any of your audio channels?
[14:38] <LinuxGold> hi all
[14:38] <grouse> hi
[14:38] <bazhang> ubuntunewbie2, uninstall current version of ffmpeg, get the version from medibuntu.org ; instructions on the site
[14:38] <rchap83> well the top right speaker icon, i opened sound control and nothing is muted
[14:39] <gondor> any one ?
[14:39] <grouse> might be worth just restarting and seeing if the problem persists
[14:39] <ubuntunewbie2> bazhang : reading now
[14:39] <mobi-sheep> rchap83: Run alsamixer -- Make sure all bars are high and if you see any blue-gray-ish 'm' at bottom.  Press m to unmute.  ESC to leave.
[14:39] <grouse> @gondor
[14:40] <J_Litewski> bazhang, does evolution only except @gmail.com names, because it's failing to connect with my school email address
[14:40] <Djoef> anyone with ntfs experience about the "unsupported operation" error ?
[14:40] <grouse> @gondor: uninstalling may not remove all the files by the sounds of things
[14:40]  * LinuxGold is on 2 laptops right now 1 running Windows XP connected to a wireless router and other laptop running ubuntu-server, error saying No DHCPOFFERS received.
[14:40] <Megra_> gondor, sudo apt-get remove --purge gyachi && sudo apt-get install gyachi
[14:40] <LinuxGold> I used iwlist wlan0 scan; iwconfig wlan0 essid xxxx; dhclient wlan0
[14:40] <bazhang> J_Litewski, not sure about that; best to ask the channel as I dont use evolution
[14:40] <grouse> @gondor, I don't know gyachi, but check out where it stores any config files
[14:40] <LinuxGold> anyone know of this common problem?
[14:40] <gondor> ok i'll give tha a try
[14:41] <legend2440> gondor: is there a hidden file called .gyachi?
[14:41] <LinuxGold> I am running kernel 2.6.28-11-server
[14:41] <Megra_> gondor, si ça persiste, regarde dans les ficheirs cachés dans ton dossier personnel (ctrl + k pour afficher les ficheirs cachés
[14:41] <legend2440> gondor: in your home dir
[14:41] <gondor> well after unistalling it
[14:41] <gondor> I fond with locate some gyachi files
[14:41] <rchap83> lol thanks... I thought the main channels were up, but I turned everything up on volume and now it is working. There is much to learn for me there is! Thanks!
[14:41] <LinuxGold> It was working fine before apt-get safe-update or something
[14:42] <kesou> does anybody know howt to disable the shutdown restart in nx session (freenx)
[14:42] <grouse> @linuxgold, have you checked your router to make sure there are no mac address filters?
[14:42] <mobi-sheep> rchap83: :>
[14:42] <LinuxGold> grouse: none
[14:42] <mobi-sheep> rchap83: You might want to do "sudo alsactl store" to save.
[14:42] <LinuxGold> grouse: when I updated the kernel, wlan0 stopped working
[14:43] <LinuxGold> or rare case circumstance?
[14:43] <grouse> ah
[14:43] <rchap83> I went ahead and did that, but what does alsactl mean?
[14:43] <emergion> Hello can I mount a UFS parition in ubuntu? even if it is only RO?
[14:43] <liitu> I really need some help with this! I have a compaq 6715s laptop with ATI x1250 Graphics Card, and today when i turned the computer on, when i'm about to login the screen just gets blurry and I cant see or do anything
[14:44] <grouse> have you been able to remount your wireless card?
[14:44] <mobi-sheep> rchap83: alsactl --> alsa control --> would be my guess
[14:44] <LinuxGold> grouse: it is built into laptop.
[14:44] <LinuxGold> grouse: My laptop is dualboot -- windows XP ran fine with wireless
[14:44] <rchap83> no idea what that means, but if it works, i did it. again i no knowing as I installed linux about 10 hours ago.
[14:45] <rchap83> i know nothing*
[14:45] <grouse> @linuxgold, wlan0 is the name of your wireless network card under linux
[14:45] <LinuxGold> grouse: yep
[14:46] <LinuxGold> btw, other error is "wmaster0: unknown hardware address type 801
[14:46] <LinuxGold> if that meant anything.
[14:46] <grouse> @linuxgold, give us a sec - just finishing off a meeting atm :p
[14:46] <LinuxGold> ok
[14:46] <LinuxGold> :)
[14:46] <liitu> I really need some help with this! I have a compaq 6715s laptop with ATI x1250 Graphics Card, and today when i turned the computer on, when i'm about to login the screen just gets blurry and I cant see or do anything

[14:47] <nandarya> Hi, why can't I ping or find my ubuntu computer? I can find the page I host with it but not git. I can also login locally with ssh.
[14:47] <BBW> Hello all
[14:47] <grouse> @linuxgold, what is the output of "iwconfi"
[14:47] <nandarya> From my ubuntu I can't ping google either.
[14:47] <grouse> sorry, "iwconfig"
[14:47] <LinuxGold> hold on
[14:47] <hdon> /usr/lib/googleearth/googleearth-bin: symbol lookup error: /usr/lib/googleearth/libssl.so.0.9.8: undefined symbol: EVP_idea_cbc
[14:48] <grouse> @linuxgold, put the output in pastebin
[14:48] <grouse> and link me
[14:48] <LinuxGold> lo, eth0, wmaster0, pan0 is no wireless extensions
[14:48] <hdon> this was after "sudo apt-get install googleearth-package && sudo dpkg -i googleearth*.deb"

[14:48] <grouse> ok
[14:48] <th1_> does anyone by any chance have a Lenovo S12? I have one with a nuked EFI partition and it won't boot
[14:49] <LinuxGold> grouse: My laptop is offline BTW
[14:49] <LinuxGold> :)
[14:49] <LinuxGold> can't use pastebin
[14:49] <rchap83> I downloaded a free Ubuntu Pocket Book, but it was .zip form. How do I unzip and use from terminal?
[14:49] <pkkm> is there any unicode sniffer for Ubuntu (for analyzing protocols)?
[14:49] <mobi-sheep> rchap83: unzip ubuntu-pocket-book.zip
[14:49] <ikonia> rchap83: the application is called unzip
[14:50] <grouse> @linuxgold, course! sorry
[14:50] <bret> rchap83  gunzip filename to unzip
[14:50] <LinuxGold> grouse: no worries
[14:50] <grouse> @linuxgold, iwconfig found your wlan device?
[14:50] <LinuxGold> grouse: yes
[14:50] <bret> cat, more, or less filename to view
[14:50] <LinuxGold> else dhclient wlan0 will have different error.
[14:50] <Mad_Tanky> guys - how to send pictures from Evolution mail client & having the same scaled down automatically just like in Windows? Any idea... help?
[14:50] <mobi-sheep> Anybody know how I can get my nautilus to clean out my crypto passwords? I clicked on "Remember Password Forever" and I'm regretting it.  Can't find anything remotely close to my issue on the 'net.
[14:51] <legend2440> rchap83: if you right click the zip file is there an option to Extract Here?
[14:51] <grouse> @linuxgold, really sorry, I have to make a move, brb
[14:51] <rchap83> gunzip ubuntupocketguide-v1-1.zip ? Like that? I do but it says no such file or directory
[14:51] <LinuxGold> sure.
[14:51] <liitu> which OS should I give my mother ? Debian or Ubuntu?
[14:51] <LinuxGold> apt-get install unzip
[14:51] <mobi-sheep> liitu: Ubuntu 8.04 LTS.
[14:51] <liitu> mobi-sheep: not 9.04?
[14:52] <bret> yeah, make sure you are in the directory it is in...
[14:52] <kesou> how to prevent a user to shutdown the pc ?
[14:52] <mobi-sheep> liitu: Well, you could.  LTS is stable (like Debian). I don't think you would want to configure and mess around on your mother's computer long as you want to.
[14:52] <bret> rchap83 try using unzip...
[14:53] <rchap83> @legend2448, yes. thanks. I didn't even look at that. Since I got linux up, Ive been doing most of the work from step by step instructions in terminal
[14:53] <mobi-sheep> liitu: LTS would be a good use for corporate business and school, etc. Long-term solution. :)
[14:53] <liitu> mobi-sheep: hmm guess your right :D
[14:53] <LinuxGold> edubuntu is a cool educational edition
[14:54] <liitu> mobi-sheep: I had a problem with this compaq 6715s computer after I installed everything and so, I rebooted and I could not load x-server @ the login screen :(
[14:54] <LinuxGold> O, btw there is also wlan0:avahi listed in ifconfig as well.
[14:54] <BBW> liitu: ubuntu version?
[14:54] <Jonii^> Hello. I wanted to install ubuntu, but it seemed to fail. I was directed here
[14:55] <Jonii^> What do I do?
[14:55] <liitu> BBW: 9.04
[14:55] <mobi-sheep> liitu: It's a laptop?
[14:55] <liitu> mobi-sheep: yes
[14:55] <BBW> I had a similar problem, try searching ubuntuforums.com too
[14:55] <LinuxGold> jonii: describe what you did when you tried to install ubuntu

[14:56] <liitu> thx
[14:56] <mobi-sheep> liitu: Good luck bringing life to the old machine. :o
[14:56] <liitu> mobi-sheep: ooh I've already read that one :P
[14:56] <mobi-sheep> liitu: Did you try it though?
[14:57] <Jonii^> Actually, I never got to that "install"-part. I got cd from local library, and it said that I should try that try-without-installing to see if it works fine. It didn't. I was left with text interface with nowhere to go
[14:57] <vinoman> hi
[14:57] <gilo> hi folks
[14:57] <LinuxGold> jonii: text interface is what linux do
[14:57] <LinuxGold> :)
[14:57] <LinuxGold> *hides*
[14:57] <mobi-sheep> liitu: Be sure to read all posts including acpi=off at the last one.  It'
[14:57] <thaksala> hi
[14:58] <djisamsoe> Myah: ren
[14:58] <LinuxGold> jonii: what is the exact ubuntu version?
[14:58] <liitu> mobi-sheep: yeah i've done that :P
[14:58] <mobi-sheep> liitu: It's all possibilities for you there.
[14:58] <mobi-sheep> liitu: Nothing? :<
[14:58] <Jonii^> LinuxGold, you mean desktop interface is not included?
[14:58] <bret> my wife's laptop will not boot any live cd version of linux....
[14:58] <Jonii^> Oh, I thought...
[14:58] <Jonii^> Then, gotta stick with windows
[14:58] <LinuxGold> jonii: can you tell us what you see when it booted up?
[14:58] <LinuxGold> did it show login prompt?
[14:59] <Jonii^> Nothing but black and white. No graphics except that ubuntu logo + loading screen
[14:59] <bret> don't do it jonii....  windows is not the answer!!!  :)
[14:59] <LinuxGold> so it just showed ubuntu logo forever?
[14:59] <Jonii^> My windows also lacks desktop due to me screwing up a bit
[14:59] <djisamsoe> Myah: do you copy me?
[15:00] <mobi-sheep> liitu: http://gefiiri.googlepages.com/kubuntuinstallhp6715s
[15:00] <liitu> mobi-sheep: yeah but it worked fine yesterday and the day before
[15:00] <Jonii^> LinuxGold, nope
[15:00] <bret> how old is your laptop jonii? what kind of hardware?  cpu?  RAM?  etc...
[15:00] <LinuxGold> *cough* 386 SX 33
[15:00] <LinuxGold> *hides*
[15:00] <bret> haha  :)
[15:01] <LinuxGold> I remembered recompiling a kernel on THAT machine
[15:01] <Jonii^> It was almost like starting up, but then, it didn't. Lots of text came, can't recall waht
[15:01] <LinuxGold> had to make 2 pots of coffee before it was done.
[15:01] <LinuxGold> jonii: can you tell us the last line that might be useful for us?
[15:01] <Jonii^> I don't have laptop. :o That box-type of computer that can't be dragged with you
[15:02] <Jonii^> LinuxGold, sry, didn't think of that
[15:02] <bret> oh ok.  I thought you said earlier it was a laptop.. :)
[15:02] <Jonii^> I try again ->
[15:02] <LinuxGold> jonii: is that on other machine?
[15:02] <Jonii^> LinuxGold, nope
[15:02] <LinuxGold> or on the machine that you are on right now?
[15:02] <Jonii^> Oh, btw: is GNOME that graphical thing that should look like desktop?
[15:03] <bret> that would be it
[15:03] <LinuxGold> jonii: yes, gnome is desktop interface.
[15:03] <Jonii^> My Windows somewhy lacks windows-bar, desktop, system tray and such after I did something to my hardware
[15:03] <LinuxGold> AHA!
[15:03] <legend2440> Jonii^: you got the ubuntu cd from library? what version is it? jaunty is the latest version
[15:03] <LinuxGold> that might be it.
[15:03] <grouse> @LinuxGold, I'm back, did you get your problem solved?
[15:04] <Jonii^> Had to open this irc-client through ctrl-alt-esc -> run -> explorer.exe -> navigate client since there was no desktop and nothing
[15:04] <Jonii^> 8.10
[15:04] <LinuxGold> grouse: nope. h4xx0ring still
[15:04] <LinuxGold> grouse: I noticed avahi next to wlan0 on ifconfig output
[15:05] <Jonii^> Anyway, when I pressed power button, linux started shutting down stuff(with text output informing of that process), and it took a lot of time to get past "shutting down gnome"
[15:05] <thepeon_> Is the bridge-util package working on the 2.6.28 kernel
[15:06] <LinuxGold> wlan0:avahi Link encap: Ether----
[15:06] <Jonii^> Anyway, I'll boot again ->
[15:06] <oldude67> Jonii^, you know anything about your computer at all? like ram? video card?
[15:06] <bret> Jonii, my wife has a laptop that will not boot ubuntu live cd.  I can't remember the exact error it gives before stopping. (it's been a while since ive tried), but it's something about not being able to mount the hard drives....  anything like that?
[15:06] <Jonii^> There was no error
[15:06] <LinuxGold> tried to stopavahi-daemon /etc/init.d/avahi-daemon stop
[15:07] <LinuxGold> still show up in ifconfig
[15:07] <Jonii^> It just... Stopped. With that prompt thingie("ubuntu-§" or something there)
[15:07] <LinuxGold> jonii: likely hardware problem
[15:07] <bret> so you did get a prompt?
[15:07] <gondor> my gyachi has the strangest issue HELP!!!!!!!!!
[15:07] <grouse> @linuxgold, have you tried restarting your laptop (my answer to everything)

[15:08] <eeas> hi

[15:12] <grawity> ajavid: The server kernel.
[15:12] <ajavid> so what do I install?
[15:12] <grouse> @lg, unfortunately I'm not running ubuntu as I'm at work atm. But you could try adding wlan0 to that file?
[15:12] <ajavid> I did aptitude search linux-image and -server ?
[15:12] <Jonii^> The problems began when I attached my old hard drive to my computer. I realized a bit after that that it probably requires power cord or something. I just plugged that wide cable to my computer and checked out what happens
[15:12] <LinuxGold> grouse: tried that route before

[15:15] <Mka> legend2440: I dont understand what you mean by "pm"
[15:15] <LinuxGold> grouse: tried that route as well
[15:16] <grouse> @lg, bleh
[15:16] <legend2440> Mka: private message
[15:16] <LinuxGold> grouse: remember before I upgraded my kernel, I had no problem
[15:16] <LinuxGold> until then I upgraded, it stopped working.
[15:16] <marcelo> hi, My video card is not fully using my monitor, I`ve got a black frame around, how can I fix this?
[15:16] <Polterge|st> does anyone in here know will uxa work on an nvidia 8400 GS card ?
[15:16] <Mka> legend2440: yes
[15:16] <grouse> @lg, maybe you should file a bug report
[15:16] <LinuxGold> ok
[15:17] <Polterge|st> I have compositing enabled but I am trying to tweak my card as much as possible considering that I use a slower system I am wanting the card to take up as much slack as possible in terms of handling graphical stuff
[15:17] <LinuxGold> thanks for trying.
[15:17] <Polterge|st> it is a 512 mb card hence it should be able to take a fair amount of the workload away from the machine itself
[15:17] <gondor> I nstalled gyachi and it worked pritty fine, but after a wile I couldent log in with my yahoo ID cause it said that my yahoo id or password is invalid so I russed to yahoo and made a nes ID and tryed that, it connected in a gippy

[15:17] <LinuxGold> :P
[15:18] <hatter243> Does anyone know of a way (from the terminal) to check if Rhythmbox is playing at that moment. I don't need to know whether it's open or not, but if it's playing.
[15:18] <LinuxGold> what is equivalent to gnome-network-manager for KDE?
[15:18] <LinuxGold> I'm too used with CLI stuff ;P
[15:18] <arkygeek__> hmmm one thing i can think of.... I had at one point parental control installed... i removed it all... used it for a long time afterwards, .... did a full upgrade, then after that, no browsing.
[15:18] <grouse> @lg, what type of wifi card is it?
[15:18] <arkygeek__> oh, and also have chrome installed

[15:19] <vadviktor> hi all, anyone has some experience how to solve "invalid encoding" in file names?

[15:19] <quizme> i'm trying to figure out if my bind is working
[15:19] <[HCI]Maraakate> Something that's comparable to winamp or foobar.
[15:20] <ikonia> quizme: run a query against it
[15:20] <quizme> ikonia u mean like curl ?
[15:20] <eurythmia> [HCI]Maraakate, you might want to look into bmp, or audacious.

[15:20] <vadviktor> hi all, anyone has some experience how to solve "invalid encoding" in file names?
[15:21] <gondor> I nstalled gyachi and it worked pritty fine, but after a wile I couldent log in with my yahoo ID cause it said that my yahoo id or password is invalid so I russed to yahoo and made a nes ID and tryed that, it connected in a gippy
[15:21] <gondor> so what could I do ?
[15:21] <LinuxGold> grouse: got it?
[15:21] <hatter243> thiebaude, sorry, that's not what I'm looking for at all. I don't think it'll either tell me if rhythmbox is actively playing music, nor does it work from the terminal
[15:21] <Bolvadur> I want to find out ip of a website. how?
[15:21] <LinuxGold> grouse: Intel corporation PRO/Wireless 3945ABG
[15:21] <Jonii^> Anyone wanna help? :/ I described my problem above, basically, I lack desktops on both linux and windows
[15:21] <quizme> my dig is working but the site is not
[15:21] <grouse> @lg, just browsing the forums, might wanna take a look at: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1135116
[15:22] <strenn-> ubuntu is for stupid children
[15:22] <thiebaude> hatter243, what about the command top in the terminal
[15:22] <vadviktor> Bolvadur, I use a "whois" website for this matter, usually gives decent info on the site
[15:22] <eurythmia> ikonia, may I /msg you ?
[15:22] <hatter243> thiebaude, that, along with ps, will only tell me if the process is running. What if the program is open but the music is paused? I wouldn't see the difference in either top or ps
[15:22] <LinuxGold> aha
[15:22] <marcelo> How do I change my keyboeard layout to the brazilian type, I tryied to add Brazilian Nativo, but nothing changed.

[15:23] <ajavid> which kernel do I need for PAE/Bigmem ?
[15:23] <gondor> and no one answered :((
[15:23] <vadviktor> Bolvadur, or you can just ping it, most of the times it's the real ip of the site's server
[15:23] <LinuxGold> grouse: That article deals with card not being detected
[15:23] <LinuxGold> I can see mine.
[15:24] <LinuxGold> I can see it in lspci
[15:24] <vadviktor> anyone has some experience how to solve "invalid encoding" in file names?

[15:32] <neil_d> mookid: is it involved at all... I thought it would be going though the usally IP interface
[15:33] <vagothcpp> After install, can I copy /bin to another partition and mount it in the fstab file?
[15:33] <vagothcpp> *Done from liveCD*
[15:33] <mookid> neil_d: I don't understand - I am on the host server, I want to be able to ssh into one of the guest VM's I have running

[15:37] <Vock> Just wondering, is there a way to do SCP with packet checking? Whenever I SCP, I usually get copy errors
[15:37] <grawity> skazi21101: If you didn't shout, maybe.
[15:37] <grawity> skazi21101: Just tell us the problem
[15:37] <LinuxGold> starting kubuntu in vbox
[15:38] <Jonii^> Doesn't "no screens found" mean that my computer thinks that no screen is connected?
[15:38] <Jonii^> Or..?
[15:38] <Jonii^> What do I do :/
[15:38] <LinuxGold> looks like it was not configured.
[15:38] <Jonii^> Same problem most likely caused windows to fail
[15:38] <grouse> @lg, are we still talking about the wlan0?
[15:38] <Jonii^> It's unlikely that these are unrelated
[15:39] <LinuxGold> grouse: sorry, was intended for Jonii

[16:08] <Promille> Hey guys. I recently installed a old Creative SoundBlaster 5.1 soundcard(USB) I found lying around, and connects it with optical cabel. The only problem is that OSS is the only ones who seems to support it(only thing that gives sound in my speaker when I run the test in the Sound section -> System tab). But how do i tell my various media programs to use OSS instead of ALSA, and is this recommended?
[16:08] <Polterge|st> hey can anyone in here tell me does uxa work on nvidia cards ?
