[00:05] <Pelo> seekerX5, use gparted to clear the current ubuntu partiton and intall on that one using the guided method, but you'll lose all your data in the /home folder

[00:06] <Pelo> jose, try running  sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg, see if you have the correct driver selected, when in doudt use the default answers provided

[00:11] <WGGMk> Does anyone have any experience with Hamachi VPN and Iptables/Gateways for Hamachi?
[00:11] <Pelo> jose,  use the amount already allocated to the video card in your bios

[00:11] <jose> pelo, how do I check that?
[00:12] <Pelo> jose, check the computers manual
[00:12] <Pelo> jose, or check in the bios by pressing the del key when you boot
[00:12] <nickrud> jose, generally you don't need to specify the memory amount, X will automatically set it.

[00:25] <zzxc> Is there a way to actually install packages using another machine as the source?  (similar to the way the livecd works)  I am trying to copy software to a machine with only dial-up internet access, so downloading hundreds of megabytes isn't an option.

[00:27] <Fujitsu> bqmassey: Hm, that is odd. Are there more options now than there were before the upgrade?

[00:28] <Pelo> bjorn_, I'm just suggesting you try with fiesty to see if you can repeat the issue,  I'm realy thinking this is a hardware issue
[00:29] <bjorn_> Pelo   could it be related to me having to turn ACPI to compatible in the BIOS before I could boot linux?
[00:29] <Pelo> bjorn_, that's a bit over my head
[00:29] <bqmassey> Fujitsu: ok... if this doesn't work, would it be a problem to let windows rewrite the MBR (i'm having a seperate issue booting windows) and then use the Live CD to rewrite the boot loader?

[00:32] <Pelo> Skfarek, check in htere for hardware info https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupport
[00:32] <Skfarek> i've got tons of error with nautilus
[00:32] <Fujitsu> bluedaisy: It's not too big...
[00:32] <Cpudan80> Skfarek: Like what?
[00:32] <Skfarek> so my X doesn't work
[00:32] <Pelo> bjorn_, I assume you donT' have any other os on this comp ?
[00:33] <Fujitsu> bluedaisy: Are you sure you're not using a really old 650MB CD?
[00:33] <Skfarek> "debug log dumped due to signal 11
[00:33] <Slart> bluedaisy: what kind of cd's are you using
[00:33] <Cpudan80> Skfarek: X doesn't start at all?
[00:33] <zkjellberg_> slart: if you are still there, wanted to say thanx. Somehow my windows desktop was using the outside gateway, and it still worked.  Works fine now, thankyou.
[00:33] <Skfarek> Cpudan80: well gdm starts, after that, i've got the sound and background and that's it
[00:33] <|thunder> ok, so holy crap pulse audio is freakin' awesome, its gonna shit in Hardy, watch this video and be amazed http://0pointer.de/blog/projects/pa-097.html
[00:33] <Jack_Sparrow> Skfarek: If you put the description of your problem on one line.. people will be able to read it... or they will take the time to read it...
[00:33] <Skfarek> only my hdd is working and writing new lines about bug in nautilus
[00:33] <Cpudan80> Skfarek: Probably the xorg.conf needs to be redone --- open /etc/X11/xorg.conf and read the first line about how to redo it
[00:34] <Slart> zkjellberg_: you're welcome.. windows works in mysterious ways =)
[00:34] <bluedaisy> durabrand cds
[00:34] <bluedaisy> 700MBs
[00:34] <Fujitsu> bluedaisy: Which CD burning software are you trying to use?
[00:34] <Cpudan80> Skfarek: It might be in /etc/x11 -- not on ubuntu atm, so I can't check
[00:34] <Skfarek> Cpudan80: what it means redone ?
[00:34] <Fujitsu> We don't release oversized images.
[00:34] <Slart> bluedaisy: I've burned that file to a 700MB cd .. something is wrong
[00:35] <Cpudan80> Skfarek: Reconfigured from scratch
[00:35] <bluedaisy> micro cd
[00:35] <jlcuevas> hi
[00:35] <Fujitsu> !burning | bluedaisy
[00:35] <ubotu> bluedaisy: CD/DVD Burning software: K3b (KDE), gnomebaker, serpentine, graveman, Nautilus cd burner (Gnome), gtoaster, xcdroast, cdrecord (terminal-based). Burning .iso files: see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BurningIsoHowto
[00:35] <Skfarek> oh, ok
[00:35] <Fujitsu> Try using one of the applications recommended on that wiki page.
[00:35] <Pelo> later folks
[00:35] <matrix> bluedaisy: you checked the md5?
[00:35] <bluedaisy> md5?
[00:35] <matrix> yes
[00:36] <bluedaisy> loading page. thank you
[00:36] <bluedaisy> im sorry. im new at this. i dont rightly know what that means
[00:36] <Skfarek> Cpudan80: still the same
[00:36] <Cpudan80> Skfarek: You have to reboot after running the command
[00:36] <Cpudan80> Not just CTRL-ATL-BKSPC
[00:37] <Slart> !md5
[00:37] <ubotu> To verify your Ubuntu ISO image (or other files for which an MD5 checksum is provided), see http://help.ubuntu.com/community/VerifyIsoHowto or http://www.linuxquestions.org/linux/answers/LQ_ISO/Checking_the_md5sum_in_Windows
[00:37] <matrix> bluedaisy: md5 can tell you if a file is complete,and if someone has changed it?
[00:37] <Cpudan80> Skfarek: Gimmie a sec, I''m gonna reboot into Ubuntu
[00:37] <Cpudan80> brb
[00:37] <bluedaisy> ah the hash. ok. im reading:)
[00:38] <zombiepig> i hope someone here can help - the delete key on my laptop has stopped working in ubuntu...
[00:38] <zombiepig> and i've got no idea where to start troubleshooting it :P
[00:39] <lordmorgoth> guys anyone have any idea how can i install creative's xfi sound card ?
[00:39] <Slart> zombiepig: try a live cd and see if it works there.. or go into the bios setup thingy and see if you can check it there..
[00:39] <Milotin> How do i see how much space i've got on my pc from terminal ?
[00:39] <Jordan_U> zombiepig, I assume it works in windows or whatever other OS you have?
[00:39] <Slart> Milotin: df -hl
[00:39] <zkjellberg_> Question: Anyone know how to enable Xchat Gnome frontend to go into system tray?
[00:40] <matrix> bluedaisy: when you download iso files ,there is a txt ,it records the md5 of the file,so before you burn ,you can check it with the origin md5?
[00:40] <Slart> Milotin: or just df.. the rest is just cosmetic
[00:40] <zombiepig> jordan_u: yes, and it registers a keypress in xev too, so the key itself is fine!
[00:40] <yaztromo> should have system tray icon enabled by default
[00:40] <Slart> yaztromo: it doesn't.. never had one afaik
[00:40] <Milotin> thanks slart
[00:40] <bluedaisy> ok, im d/ling a program to check that now
[00:41] <Cpudan80> Skfarek: Ok ehh - is it working now?
[00:41] <Jordan_U> zombiepig, Well that answers my second question also :) Does it work in tty's? ( trying to figure out if it's an X configuration problem or more general )
[00:41] <Skfarek> Cpudan80: no
[00:41] <yaztromo> Slart - try preferences - alerts - enable system tray icon
[00:41] <Kiran> I all, I have a quick question regarding wireless adapters
[00:42] <Cpudan80> Skfarek: So you did the sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg command?
[00:42] <Kiran> I see the device in the terminal, but it says that its disabled, how do i enable it?
[00:42] <Slart> yaztromo: no alerts in preferences
[00:42] <Skfarek> yep
[00:42] <Slart> yaztromo: what version?
[00:42] <Skfarek> end sudo reboot after that
[00:42] <sam_> testing
[00:42] <yaztromo> 2.8.4
[00:42] <yaztromo> gutsy
[00:42] <Cpudan80> Skfarek: hrm...
[00:42] <Jordan_U> Kiran, In what way do you "see" it, what is saying that it is "disabled" ?
[00:42] <nickrud> Slart, you using xchat or xchat-gnome?
[00:42] <Slart> yaztromo: xchat-gnome is a 0.16.. you're not using xchat are you?
[00:42] <Cpudan80> Skfarek: Does the debug log give any clues?
[00:43] <yaztromo> ahh, no im just using plain xchat
[00:43] <Kiran> i typed in: "sudo lshw -C network"
[00:43] <Kiran> and it shows my wirleess device, and it says: DISABLED
[00:43] <zombiepig> jordan_u: how can i check that?
[00:43] <Skfarek> Cpudan80: no
[00:43] <sam_> anyone in the mood to solve a terrible problem on linux?
[00:43] <Skfarek> Cpudan80: http://www.google.pl/search?hl=pl&client=firefox-a&rls=com.ubuntu%3Aen-US%3Aofficial&q=%22debug+log+dumped+due+to+signal+11%22&btnG=Szukaj&lr=
[00:43] <Slart> yaztromo: ah.. yes... the big brother with all the switches.. I'm using the slightly dumber cousin =)
[00:43] <nickrud> I'm always in the mood, but the problem would be the issue
[00:43] <Skfarek> Cpudan80: it extactly the same like there
[00:43] <yaztromo> i just did sudo apt-get install xchat
[00:43] <sam_> nickrud: alright
[00:44] <sam_> nickrud: it has to do with my synaptic manager i think, thats where it started
[00:44] <PurpZeY> What is the proper way to eject a USB device (non-flash drive)?
[00:44] <Slart> yaztromo: I like the gnome gui.. I have xchat installed too.. just don't use it
[00:44] <Jordan_U> zombiepig, ctrl+alt+F1 to get to a tty, but FIRST, note that to get back to X again you will need to press ctrl + alt + F7
[00:44] <marc_> anybody help me install madwifi drivers?
[00:44] <HardDisk> PurpZeY, right click and unmount
[00:44] <Skfarek> Cpudan80: i'm thinking about reinstall ubuntu and before start X, just do udaptes from the console
[00:44] <nickrud> sam, and?
[00:44] <marc_> already downloaded and extracted to desktop
[00:44] <Jordan_U> PurpZeY, What type of device is it?
[00:44] <PurpZeY> HardDisk: It will appear there in "Computer"?
[00:44] <m0u5e> after i install xserver-xgl, mplayer won't properly full screen anymore
[00:44] <m0u5e> why is that? :X
[00:44] <sam_> nickrud: ok so when i try to open it this appears: E: dpkg was interrupted, you must manually run 'dpkg --configure -a' to correct the problem.
[00:44] <sam_> E: _cache->open() failed, please report.
[00:44] <PurpZeY> Jordan_U: Bluetooth Dongle
[00:44] <Cpudan80> Skfarek: That's probably a good idea
[00:44] <m0u5e> i have a nvidia gpu
[00:44] <Skfarek> Cpudan80: looks the same, but synaptic sometime sux
[00:45] <Skfarek> Cpudan80: hmm
[00:45] <HardDisk> PurpZeY, if it's bluetooth, just take it out
[00:45] <nickrud> sam_, in a terminal, run       sudo dpkg --configure -a
[00:45] <Slart> sam_: so, did you?
[00:45] <moonwatcher_> hi, a bit of a strange question but when running ubuntu as a vmware guest on an OSX host, the mac scroller doesnt work in ubuntu....
[00:45] <Skfarek> Cpudan80: i check RAM and HDD no bad sectors etc
[00:45] <sam_> nickrud: so of course i typed in dpkg --configure -a in terminal
[00:45] <Cpudan80> Skfarek: Does your laptop have an ATI graphics card?
[00:45] <sam_> nickrud: and that got me:
[00:45] <yaztromo> Slart: Do you mind me asking, How do I run gnome-xchat?
[00:45] <Skfarek> Cpudan80: but there is still one think
[00:45] <zombiepig> jordan_u: no - it's not working there either
[00:45] <moonwatcher_> i know this is far fetched but anyone knows something
[00:45] <PurpZeY> HardDisk: I was warned that is not a create thing to do...If it's OK, I'll do it. . .
[00:45] <scguy318> sam_: prefix with sudo as nickrud said
[00:45] <nickrud> sam_, don't paste here
[00:45] <Skfarek> Cpudan80: no, intel 965 AFAIR
[00:45] <PurpZeY> great*
[00:45] <Cpudan80> hrm...
[00:45] <sam_> nickrud: ?
[00:45] <Slart> yaztromo: you install it.. there's a package.. xchat-gnome or something
[00:45] <Slart> !info xchat-gnome
[00:45] <HardDisk> PurpZeY, if it was a USB storage device you have to unmount, since its a bluetooth dongle no worries.
[00:45] <ubotu> xchat-gnome: a new frontend to the popular X-Chat IRC client. In component main, is optional. Version 1:0.18-0ubuntu3 (gutsy), package size 313 kB, installed size 816 kB
[00:45] <yaztromo> thanks:)
[00:45] <scguy318> sam_: sudo dpkg --configure -a
[00:45] <sam_> prefix?
[00:46] <nickrud> sam_, thought you were about to show us a bunch of lines, and did you do the sudo version?
[00:46] <scguy318> sam_: the opposite of postfix? :P
[00:46] <Skfarek> Cpudan80: i use XFS filesystem and the / partition is about 120GB, there shouldn't be any problem of this, should it?
[00:46] <Kiran> Does anyone know how to enable a network device, Ubuntu recognizes it and I know it recognizes it because when i type in: "sudo lshw -C network", it shows all the properties of my wireless device, and it also says DISABLED, anybody know how to enable it?
[00:46] <HardDisk> PurpZeY, the bluetooth dongle would be like plugging in a mouse or keyboard.
[00:46] <sam_> uh guys can you pretend im a noob at linux
[00:46] <Cpudan80> Skfarek: I wouldn't think so...
[00:46] <sam_> and i dont know what any of that means
[00:46] <googlebyt1> Hello, I may have identified the problem with a laptop I'm working on.  Someone with a similar problem had Xclient script instead of GNOME running as a session.  Assuming that is the problem, how do I enable GNOME instead of Xclient script?
[00:46] <PurpZeY> HardDisk: Ok cool....Yeah, I wanted to be the cool kid in town who can use a Wiimote as a mouse...:)
[00:46] <nickrud> sam_, when you run a system command, you need to give yourself permission, and sudo is the tool
[00:46] <HardDisk> PurpZeY, nice :)
[00:46] <sam_> nickrud: oh yea of course i use sudo
[00:47] <nickrud> sam_, ok, good so far
[00:47] <DARKGuy> Hey, how do I make apt faster?
[00:47] <Skfarek> Cpudan80: at least i can split the partition on 2, if i have to, what do you think?
[00:47] <sam_> nickrud: but This package is an installer package, it does not actually contain the
[00:47] <sam_> J2SDK documentation. You will need to go download one of the
[00:47] <sam_> archives:
[00:47] <sam_> jdk-1_5_0-doc.zip jdk-1_5_0-doc-ja.zip shows up
[00:47] <nickrud> sam_, ah, you still working on that?
[00:47] <Jordan_U> zombiepig, May be language settings, I would try a LiveCD like someone else suggested, not sure where to go from there though
[00:47] <Cpudan80> Skfarek: You could -- but I mean there is virtually no limit to the size of an XFS disk
[00:47] <HardDisk> make apt faster?
[00:47] <sam_> nickrud: lol...you noticed earlier?
[00:47] <HardDisk> huh?
[00:47] <Jordan_U> DARKGuy, At downloading or installing packages?
[00:47] <Skfarek> Cpudan80: i think so too
[00:48] <nickrud> sam_, yes, wasn't it LjL trying to get you thru it?
[00:48] <sam_> nickrud: apparently i cant install anything now because of it
[00:48] <Cpudan80> Skfarek: The limit is something like 20 Million TB
[00:48] <yaztromo> Slart, I think there is a plugin you need to enable/get for sys tray icon
[00:48] <zombiepig> jordan_u: ok, will try. thanks for the pointers!
[00:48] <DARKGuy> Jordan_U: installing, right before it installs and after it installs. The time it takes to read the package list is absurd
[00:48] <nickrud> sam_, ok, run    sudo apt-get -f install     and then put the complete output on http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org
[00:48] <HardDisk> DARKGuy, at downloading, get a faster connection, at installing, get a faster CPU :)
[00:48] <Slart> yaztromo: oh? not that I really minimize xchat any more.. I've got 6 desktops after all =)
[00:48] <HardDisk> ah time it reads
[00:48] <DARKGuy> HardDisk: I can't believe 3.2Ghz isn't enough
[00:48] <HardDisk> what you need is a faster harddrive then
[00:48] <Skfarek> Cpudan80: btw. when i reboot Ubuntu i've got a lot of errors with Network Managers, nm_print_open_socks()
[00:48] <Jordan_U> DARKGuy, How long does it take for you, for me it's practically nothing
[00:49] <Skfarek> Cpudan80: is it normall?
[00:49] <Cpudan80> no
[00:49] <sander> how can i configure startx to inicialize fluxbow like default x-window ?
[00:49] <Cpudan80> Sounds like the upgrade borked
[00:49] <Cpudan80> Just reinstall
[00:49] <anakin_> hello all, i keep getting this message "NT_STATUS_LOGON_TYPE_NOT_GRANTED" when ever i try to list the directories with smbclient -L hostname.
[00:49] <scguy318> Skfarek: the console msgs when Ubuntu is being shutdown/rebooted? normal I think
[00:49] <il12> Ok, I have a question of opinion: VMWare or Virt. Box?
[00:49] <sander> how can i configure startx to inicialize fluxbox like default x-window ?
[00:49] <Cpudan80> You can roll back the upgrade I think.... but if it's not too much trouble to kill it...
[00:49] <Skfarek> scguy318: normal? :)
[00:49] <anakin_> the shares on my linuxbox works fine both on the windows/linux browsers though
[00:49] <Jordan_U> sander, What do you mean "like default x-window" ?
[00:49] <sam_> nickrud: ok heres the link i got from that: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/49447/
[00:49] <krammer> error message for firestarter (device etho not ready) suggestions?
[00:50] <sander> Jordan_U: yes
[00:50] <Jordan_U> sander, Do you just want it to be the default window manager?
[00:50] <Slart> hmm.. can anyone tell me why ubuntu hasn't upgraded my xchat version?? gutsy has 0.18 and I'm still running 0.16
[00:50] <Kiran> anybody?
[00:50] <DARKGuy> HardDisk, Jordan_U: Well, it isn't much when the OS doesn't have much stuff installed, but when I start to install tons of programs and libraries it starts to take up its time...  Right now it's at it should be, but I don't think my HD is slow... 80Gb 7200RPM IDE Seagate Barracuda :/
[00:50] <Kiran> know how to enable a wireless device?
[00:50] <sander> Jordan_U: yes
[00:50] <nickrud> sam_, next, run the    sudo dpkg --configure -a    and pastebin that
[00:50] <yaztromo> Slart, Thats cool then. I only use two so I have a lot systray stuff
[00:51] <sander> Jordan_U: to be possible started with startx command... understand?
[00:51] <DARKGuy> HardDisk, Jordan_U: Windows takes less time in reading a 150Mb .txt file in Notepad++
[00:51] <HardDisk> DARKGuy, I don't know what it is you want, you seem to be very unsatisfied.
[00:51] <Skfarek> scguy318: why do you think it's normal? ;)
[00:51] <DARKGuy> HardDisk, Jordan_U: So the list can't be that long oO
[00:51] <krammer> error message for firestarter (device etho not ready) suggestions?
[00:51] <sam_> nickrud: ok i got this: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/49448/
[00:51] <Jordan_U> DARKGuy, Might be fragmentation ( XFS can get fragmented IIRC )
[00:51] <HardDisk> ext3 contains journalling
[00:51] <HazzaUK> Just installed ubuntu gutsy and trying to get elisa svn working under it (0.3.2 from repos works fine)  anyone succeeded in doing this?  (its sleepy time in #elisa)
[00:51] <DARKGuy> HardDisk: apt takes a lot of time to read its package list :/ it shouldn't take that long :(
[00:52] <HardDisk> XFS gets fragmented
[00:52] <nickrud> sam_, did you get the zip file?
[00:52] <DARKGuy> oO it does?!
[00:52] <scguy318> Skfarek: because I've seen those NetworkManager messages on every single Ubuntu machine i've worked with, with no ill effects
[00:52] <DARKGuy> joy, back to Windows times o.o
[00:52] <scguy318> Skfarek: I could be dead wrong though
[00:52] <Slart> yaztromo: you meant the xchat-systray package, right?
[00:52] <sam_> nickrud: you mean the one it asks when i run sudo dpkg --configure -a?
[00:52] <sander> Jordan_U: when i type startx here, gnome is loaded, and i has installed the fluxbox, is very small.. and i want if possible, change startx to start fluxbox
[00:52] <nickrud> sam_, yes,
[00:52] <sam_> nickrud: well i followed the link and wasnt sure which to get
[00:52] <HazzaUK> currently getting segfaults on pigment/examples/pypgm/sphere
[00:52] <Cpudan80> Skfarek: Actually, scguy318 is right to a point -- the network manager can spit out some errors related to DHCP and stuff on startup/shutdown
[00:52] <Cpudan80> But a whole barrage of errors is not normal
[00:53] <Jordan_U> DARKGuy, Just to test a hunch, how long does it take for you to run "sudo dpkg --configure -a" ?
[00:53] <sander> Jordan_U: its possible?
[00:53] <Skfarek> stupid
[00:53] <Jordan_U> sander, Yes
[00:53] <Skfarek> on my other laptop with 7.10 (from dist-upgrade) there isn't any problem like that
[00:53] <DARKGuy> Jordan_U: oO 2 seconds
[00:53] <sander> Jordan_U: how can i do this?
[00:53] <yaztromo> Slart, yes
[00:54] <sam_> nickrud: wasnt sure which jdk 5.0 to download when i followed the link
[00:54] <nickrud> sam_, go to the download link for j2se 5.0 documentation, then get the zip
[00:54] <HardDisk> which is too long for him
[00:55] <nickrud> sam_, you want the documentation, not the jdk
[00:55] <sam_> nickrud: is that the net beans one, java EE, or update 14 one
[00:55] <nickrud> sam_, none. scroll down the page, look for documentation
[00:55] <Jordan_U> sander, I don't remember exactly, you might try reading "man startx" or check wiki.ubuntu.com
[00:55] <sam_> nickrud umm the source code?
[00:55] <sam_> nickrud, oh i see
[00:55] <jrattner1> Question: How can I prevent an icon from being displayed on the desktop for things that are automatically mounted?
[00:55] <anakin_> hello all, i keep getting this message "NT_STATUS_LOGON_TYPE_NOT_GRANTED" when ever i try to list the directories with smbclient -L hostname.
[00:56] <Slart> ok.. another question.. if I just run "xchat-gnome" in a terminal.. it starts xchat-gnome v0.16... if I manually run /usr/bin/xchat-gnome it starts v0.18... how can is see which one the single "xchat-gnome" starts?
[00:56] <nickrud> sam, then choose the one without ja (meaning japanese ;)
[00:56] <boo__> hi
[00:56] <sam_> nickrud, ok downloading it (the english of course)
[00:56] <Cpudan80> anakin_: You need to supply a user/pass
[00:56] <nickrud> Slart, type   which xchat-gnome
[00:56] <Jordan_U> Slart, "which xchat-gnome"
[00:56] <boo__> HardDisk, I got access to the files (its mounted and i can read/write).  Thanks for your help
[00:56] <billenium> besides reinstalling ubuntu, is there any other way i can "reinstall" or "format" my computer?
[00:57] <Cpudan80> anakin_: Basically, it's saying that you don't have rights to do whatever it is you are trying to do
[00:57] <Slart> ahh.. nice.. thanks
[00:57] <HardDisk> np boo__
[00:57] <Jordan_U> billenium, What are you trying to accomplish?
[00:57] <Slart> thanks Jordan, nickrud
[00:57] <sam_> nickrud: im guessing i put it in the tmp folder?
[00:57] <Jordan_U> Slart, np
[00:57] <boo__> I still can't boot to windows, though.
[00:57] <anakin_> Cpudan80: but i do. for some reason the samba login dialog shows that i am using guest@hostname as my credentials. i enter a different thing (an administrator level user/pass) and it keeps showing the password dialog repeatedly
[00:57] <Fujitsu> Jurgeni: Alt+F2. Enter gconf-editor. Navigate to apps->nautilus->desktop. Deselect volumes_visible..
[00:57] <nickrud> sam_, download it to your desktop first
[00:57] <HardDisk> boo, you have to add windows to the grub menu
[00:57] <sam_> nickrud: yep i did
[00:58] <billenium> Jordan_U: i want my computer to basically have no files on it, except the files you first get when you install ubuntu... i guess im trying to say
[00:58] <asn_> Hello, there. I never had the chance to try a wireless connection, and tomorrow I will be "forced" to. I'm gonna try to setup Ubuntu, and use the hotspot that Starbucks gives you. How tough will it be with Ubuntu to connect to that wifi spot?
[00:58] <Fujitsu> Bah, he left.
[00:58] <boo__> it's already there
[00:58] <Cpudan80> anakin_: Enter the username as SERVER_NAME\USER
[00:58] <boo__> but nothing happens when i select it
[00:58] <anakin_> ok
[00:58] <nickrud> sam_, ok, type this:     cd ~/Desktop  &&  sudo cp jdk-1_5_0-doc.zip  /tmp
[00:58] <Cpudan80> anakin_: The IP would also work in place of the name
[00:58] <Fujitsu> asn_: Which version of Ubuntu are you using, and which wireless card do you have?
[00:58] <livingdaylight> pidgin doesn't support jabber anymore???
[00:58] <Fujitsu> livingdaylight: It does.
[00:58] <HardDisk> well 1) make sure that its loaded correctly, and 2) after you fixed your partition you may need to fdisk /mbr again then add grub then add windows to the grub
[00:59] <livingdaylight> Fujitsu, in the 'add' i don't see jabber in the drop down menu?
[00:59] <sam_> nickrud: ok did that
[00:59] <billenium> Jordan_U: any ideas?
[00:59] <livingdaylight> *add account
[00:59] <DARKGuy> HardDisk: 2 seconds isn't what apt takes into reading the package list :P
[00:59] <ezzieyguywuf> is there a way to fix overheating issues on a t60p running gutsy?
[00:59] <nickrud> sam_, now   sudo dpkg --configure  -a
[00:59] <Fujitsu> livingdaylight: XMPP is the proper name for Jabber.
[00:59] <asn_> Fujitsu: 7.10. The laptop is not mine, so I don't know.
[01:00] <boo__> is there anything specific in menu.lst for grub that i need for windows?
[01:00] <livingdaylight> Fujitsu, they changed it! it used to always be in there simply under jabber, right>
[01:00] <asn_> Fujitsu: I just want to know if there is a nice cute GUI tool to connect to wireless nodes
[01:00] <Fujitsu> livingdaylight: Ages ago, I think.
[01:00] <sam_> nickrud: its installing and stuff
[01:00] <boo__> it just points to (hd0,0_
[01:00] <sam_> nickrud: ok done
[01:00] <nickrud> sam_, after it's done, run    sudo apt-get -f install  , just for certainty
[01:00] <Fujitsu> asn_: For 7.04 and above, the NetworkManager icon in the system tray will let you easily connect.
[01:00] <livingdaylight> Fujitsu, nah... not even that long ago... wtf is xmpp anyways?
[01:00] <asn_> I see. Thank you, Fujitsu
[01:00] <sam_> nickrud: done
[01:01] <Fujitsu> livingdaylight: eXtensible Messaging and Presence Protocol. Jabber is what it was called before it was a proper standard, IIRC.
[01:01] <nickrud> sam_, now, try synaptic
[01:01] <ezzieyguywuf>  is there a way to fix overheating issues on a t60p running gutsy?
[01:01] <sam_> nickrud: your a lifesaver!
[01:01] <livingdaylight> Fujitsu, wow, ic... thank you... Now i just don't remember how to set my jabber up again, lol :p
[01:01] <sam_> nickrud: works now awesome
[01:01] <livingdaylight> what s the Domain?
[01:01] <nickrud> sam_, save that copy of the java docs, in case you ever uninstall and want to reinstall
[01:02] <sam_> nickrud: does it mean java works now?
[01:02] <IndyGunFreak> sam_: hmm, so just installing java from the website fixed the issue?
[01:02] <nickrud> sam_, no, you just have the docs.  To get java, install sun-java6-jre and sun-java6-plugin
[01:03] <sam_> indygunfreak: well the synaptic problem is fixed at least
[01:03] <Fujitsu> livingdaylight: Probably the bit after the @.
[01:03] <IndyGunFreak> sam_: lol..
[01:03] <sam_> nickrud: ok so ill do that through synaptic manager right?
[01:03] <JoeThomas> Hi, whenever i add vga=791 to my line in menu.lst, i get a black screen after grub. Any ideas?
[01:03] <IndyGunFreak> nickrud: what caused that issue?.. i tried to figure that one out for a while.
[01:03] <nickrud> IndyGunFreak, no, he installed the docs, which need to be downloaded separately.
[01:03] <nickrud> sam_, yes
[01:03] <IndyGunFreak> ok.
[01:03] <Fujitsu> JoeThomas: usplash probably disagrees with the framebuffer settings. Try removing the `splash' option from the kernel.
[01:03] <sam_> indygunfreak: yea i think we went through alot of trouble for nothing
[01:03] <livingdaylight> Fujitsu, strange i also added the google account and it says xmpp there too
[01:04] <IndyGunFreak> sam_: sounds like it....
[01:04] <livingdaylight> !jabber
[01:04] <ubotu> jabber is a free and open source instant messaging protocol, unlike MSN and AIM. Supporting clients on Linux: Kopete (KDE), Gaim (GNOME). For more info see http://www.jabber.org
[01:04] <Fujitsu> livingdaylight: Google Talk is XMPP.
[01:04] <JoeThomas> Fujitsu: alright thanks ill give it a shot.
[01:04] <livingdaylight> Fujitsu, but jabber is xmpp too...?
[01:04] <livingdaylight> it ain't gonna conflict having the two accounts?
[01:04] <Fujitsu> livingdaylight: Jabber is another name for XMPP. Google Talk is a rebranded version of Jabber.
[01:04] <madman91> hey guys
[01:04] <ezzieyguywuf>  is there a way to fix overheating issues on a t60p running gutsy?
[01:04] <pteague> how do i get the volume control to control the sound for oss? it seems set up for alsa, & i can't seem to get it to control volume for things like amarok
[01:04] <Fujitsu> Pidgin will handle multiple accounts fine.
[01:05] <saxony> what package name does beryl manager fall under?
[01:05] <madman91> I have many dvd movies ripped into .mkv .avi .mp4 containers and such.. are there any programs that manage video files? such as amarok for movies? .. something that will catalog them, create playlists, etc.. etc..
[01:05] <nickrud> pteague, try right clicking the volume control, and selecting preferences
[01:05] <Fujitsu> saxony: Beryl no longer exists
[01:05] <scguy318> Fujitsu: well, Google Talk is its own proprietary protocol, if I'm not mistaken, but it has an XMPP gateway
[01:05] <Fujitsu> saxony: If you're using Ubuntu 7.10, you want compizconfig-settings-manager.
[01:06] <pteague> yeah, did that
[01:06] <Slart> !ccsm | saxony
[01:06] <ubotu> saxony: To enable advanced customization of desktop effects in Ubuntu 7.10 (Gutsy), install 'compizconfig-settings-manager'. A new option will appear in your appearance properties - See also !compiz - Help in #compiz-fusion
[01:06] <Fujitsu> scguy318: No. It is normal XMPP with some extensions for audio chat.
[01:06] <saxony> ok
[01:06] <scguy318> Fujitsu: ah ok
[01:06] <Slart> madman91: none that I know of.. let me know if you find one
[01:06] <madman91> Slart: mmk, will do
[01:06] <Smurf-Slayer> I can't get Pidgin GUI's to come up after upgrading to 7.10...  Apparently it replaced GAIM?  I know it is running in the background because I'm on on another machine, and message windows pop up on this one... But no GUI...
[01:07] <Fujitsu> Smurf-Slayer: You mean the contact list is absent, but message windows work fine?
[01:07] <nickrud> Smurf-Slayer, don't use pidgin much, but is there an icon in the notification area of the taskbar?
[01:08] <IndyGunFreak> Smurf-Slayer: just uninstall it and compile it from source
[01:08]  * nickrud hexes IndyGunFreak
[01:08] <IndyGunFreak> nickrud: lol..
[01:08] <Fujitsu> IndyGunFreak: ... what a useless answer. Please don't give that answer.
[01:08] <IndyGunFreak> nickrud: its not that hard to compile..lol
[01:08] <ezzieyguywuf>  is there a way to fix overheating issues on a t60p running gutsy?
[01:08] <madman91> so, does anyone know of a movie cataloging program? like amarok for music? create playlists, sort by title/artist/etc.. ... anybody any ideas?
[01:08] <IndyGunFreak> Fujitsu: its not useless at all.
[01:09] <IndyGunFreak> the version in the repos, is well behind the curent version hosted ont he site.
[01:09] <Fujitsu> IndyGunFreak: It is about as counterproductive as one can get.
[01:09] <Fujitsu> Oh how devastatingly terrible.
[01:09] <BruceM91> same thing for blender as well, the latest isnt in the repos
[01:09] <IndyGunFreak> Fujitsu: well, what can i say, i always compile pidgin, and mine is working fine on 3 pc's
[01:09] <IndyGunFreak> must not be to bad of an idea.
[01:09] <sam_> ok i seem to be running into another problem..
[01:09] <BruceM91> pidgin works great for me on winxp and ubuntu
[01:09] <sam_> sigh
[01:09] <nickrud> anyway, back to Smurf-Slayer 's problem
[01:10] <Smurf-Slayer> Fujitsu - No contact list or anything, and nothing on the application tool bar, but if I'm on on another machine the messages windows show up, and I can communicate from this machine...
[01:10] <BruceM91> im using pidgin in winxp now
[01:10] <Fujitsu> Smurf-Slayer: Hmm... What happens if you open up a terminal and run it from there?
[01:10] <Montego> How do I use the Video Playback feature In the compiz settings?
[01:10] <sam_> indygunfreak: isn't ubuntu supposed to be able to deal with .rar files?
[01:10] <IndyGunFreak> sam_: no
[01:10] <Smurf-Slayer> I have uninstalled it, and reinstalled it...  But I have not tried to build it, don't know how.
[01:10] <IndyGunFreak> !rar | sam_
[01:10] <ubotu> sam_: rar is a non-free archive format created by Rarsoft. For instructions on accessing .rar files through the Archive Manager view https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FileCompression. There is a free (as in speech) unrar utility as well, see !info unrar-free
[01:10] <Fujitsu> sam_: If one installs unrar-free or unrar-nonfree.
[01:10] <sam_> indygunfreak: ok
[01:10] <xange> I'm trying to use my USB dvd burner, I've never used it before how would I find out where it is so I can mount and use it to burn disc?
[01:10] <pteague> ok, i got the little volume controller in gnome to control the volume in amarok... but how do i now set it up so that my media keyboard's volume controller will affect that?
[01:11] <sam_> fujitsu: ah i see
[01:11] <Slart> sam_: there is a rar package.. if you install it you can open rar-files just like zips in file-roller etc
[01:11] <Smurf-Slayer> Fujitsu - I get an error message, you can see it at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/49424
[01:11] <quittt> how do I put NWLINK in my Ubuntu?
[01:11] <Fujitsu> xange: If you plug it in, and open up Places->CD/DVD Creator, you should be able to burn from there.
[01:11] <sam_> slart: just wish they wouldnt make opening files so complicated...
[01:11] <quittt> !nwlink
[01:11] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about nwlink - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[01:11] <nickrud> pteague, system->prefs->keyboard Shortcuts, highlight the operation you want, press the media key
[01:11] <Fujitsu> Smurf-Slayer: That's fairly normal.
[01:11] <xange> Places?
[01:12] <Fujitsu> xange: The menu next to Applications.
[01:12] <Slart> sam_: well.. it's a one-liner in the terminal.. tar.zip is the linux way I guess
[01:12] <quittt> alguém sabe?
[01:12] <xange> woops, sorry in Fluxbox...was giving it a try...I'll switch back to Gnome
[01:12] <quittt> do anybody know? Novel Link
[01:12] <Slart> !pt | quittt
[01:12] <ubotu> quittt: Por favor use #ubuntu-br ou #ubuntu-pt para ajuda em português. Obrigado.
[01:12] <Smurf-Slayer> fujitsu - That's what I was told... But the GUI doesn't work, and I don't know what to do about it...
[01:12] <quittt> Slart, sorry, I was thinking in portuguese thus I wrote it in portuguese haha
[01:13] <Slart> quittt: no worries =)
[01:13] <quittt> how do I connect my Ubuntu with a HUB?
[01:13] <pteague> nickrud> well that's just it... it currently sets a volume & can mute/unmute, but apparently doesn't affect oss
[01:13] <Fujitsu> quittt: Plug it in.
[01:14] <Fujitsu> pteague: Why are you using OSS?
[01:14] <quittt> Fujitsu, can I use NWLINK on Linux?
[01:14] <sam_> slart: ok it says the free program unrar-free, in the universe repository supports rar
[01:14] <pteague> no idea why... cause that's what amarok seems to be using? & i can't seem to get it to work with alsa?  it says it can't find a demux
[01:14] <sam_> slart: so that means i have it already?
[01:14] <Fujitsu> quittt: I don't know what it is.
[01:14] <Fujitsu> sam_: It's not installed by default.
[01:15] <sam_> fujitsu: where do i go to download it?
[01:15] <Fujitsu> sam_: Synaptic.
[01:15] <sam_> fujitsu: ohh right
[01:15] <nickrud> lol sam_
[01:15] <asn_> Is libc6 and #
[01:15] <asn_>  libpcap0.8  installed by default?
[01:16] <Fujitsu> asn_: The latter isn't, but I think you might find that not a single application on your system would run without the former.
[01:16] <bluedaisy> ive checked the md5 of this iso file. its fine. and a different brand CDs. it wont burn. the actualy size is 695MBs, not 712. do i need different burner software?
[01:16] <Slart> sam_: sorry.. was away.. Fujitsu speaks wisely.. I'd listen to his advice =)
[01:16] <asn_> Fujitsu: Thanks, again.
[01:16] <Montego> Anyone know what program is used to create a video of the desktop?
[01:17] <Fujitsu> !burning | bluedaisy, try using the software specified on the link at the end of this
[01:17] <ubotu> bluedaisy, try using the software specified on the link at the end of this: CD/DVD Burning software: K3b (KDE), gnomebaker, serpentine, graveman, Nautilus cd burner (Gnome), gtoaster, xcdroast, cdrecord (terminal-based). Burning .iso files: see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BurningIsoHowto
[01:17] <nickrud> !capture
[01:17] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about capture - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[01:17] <ixlam> How do you re-attach tear off menu?
[01:17] <bluedaisy> thank you
[01:17] <Fujitsu> Montego: One could try gtk-recordmydesktop
[01:17] <nickrud> Montego, or istanbul
[01:17] <Fujitsu> ixlam: Try clicking the close button, if it has one.
[01:18] <Slart> I wonder if ubotu is keeping track of all the requests for factoids.. perhaps implement the most common ones that are missing..
[01:18] <nickrud> Slart, you can suggest one,  try ubotu capture is  .....
[01:18] <BruceM91> how do I install compiz?
[01:18] <Ome> Good Night :)
[01:19] <Montego> Will give it a shot . Do either programs make it easy to find the video once it has captured it?
[01:19] <Fujitsu> BruceM91: If you are using Ubuntu 7.10, it is installed by default.
[01:19] <BruceM91> I cant find it
[01:19] <ixlam> Fujitsu >> no close button on menu .. its the  menu from volume control panel
[01:19] <simmerz> is there a utility for configuring mouse buttons in gutsy?
[01:19] <pteague> should i be using alsa instead of oss? or something else?
[01:19] <bluedaisy> whats gutsy?
[01:19] <Fujitsu> BruceM91: System->Appearance->Visual Effects.
[01:19] <Fujitsu> pteague: You should be using ALSA.
[01:19] <nickrud> bluedaisy, 7.10
[01:19] <Slart> nickrud: if there was a list of "most common requests missing" I might do just that =) don't know much about capture though
[01:19] <Fujitsu> bluedaisy: Ubuntu 7.10
[01:19] <bluedaisy> ah, ok
[01:20] <nickrud> Slart, likewise, but there is a factoid that lists a bunch.
 if I dissable "tear offs" will need to restart no ? .. is there a wat to  "alt+ ?? " or similar ?
[01:20] <Slart> nickrud: mm.. there is a webpage too.. lists them in popularity order... but I haven't seen anything that hints at it keeping count of the missing ones
[01:20] <ezzieyguywuf> my sensors-applet, which I have set to show me the temperature of my cpu is displaying three temperatures. I have a centrino duo processor on a t60p. when I go to preferences, it says its showing me the temp for two ACPI devices, titled THM1 and THM0, and then one ibm-acpi device that is simply called CPU. any ideas why I'm getting three temperatures?
[01:21] <BruceM91> grr, the appearance window froze
[01:21] <nickrud> Slart, you could ask about it in #ubuntu-bots I think
[01:21] <Slart> ezzieyguywuf: usually there are more than one temperature sensor.. one on the cpu.. one on the motherboard.. one .. some place else.. you'll have to check the motherboard documentation to find out where they are
[01:22] <cocox> does anybody has a link with instructions to how to install aiglx in gutsy??? i already have compiz fusion working
[01:22] <nickrud> Slart, a good project if there is a record, and maybe they just hadn't thought of it yet
[01:22] <Slart> nickrud: ah.. a project for the christmas holidays. thanks =)
[01:22] <Fujitsu> cocox: You're probably using AIGLX, then.
[01:22] <BruceM91> "The Composite Extension is not available"
[01:22] <cocox> Fujitsu, how can i check
[01:22] <Fujitsu> Compiz uses either AIGLX or Xgl, and Xgl needs a lot of manual setup.
[01:22] <ezzieyguywuf> slart: ok, so am I getting the same temperature read from three places or is it the temp of each processor, with the third temp simply being an overall temp?
[01:22] <Fujitsu> BruceM91: What kind of video card are you using?
 try using / install envy
[01:23] <Fujitsu> Please don't suggest Envy.
[01:23] <Fujitsu> Envy breaks things.
[01:23] <BruceM91> Ati Radeon
[01:23] <Slart> ezzieyguywuf: check the motherboard documentation.. it's different on different processors/motherboards..
[01:23] <cocox> ok
[01:23] <cocox> i,ve an build in intel
[01:23] <ezzieyguywuf> slart: ok thank you
[01:23] <Allenwr> Hey!
[01:23] <Montego> nickrud istanbul did record something. Says saving to disk.. WOuld you have any Idea where I would look for the finished vid?
[01:23] <ixlam> works perfect for me  ... any reason in particular?
[01:23] <Fujitsu> BruceM91: You're out of luck for Ubuntu 7.10 - ATI's drivers (except for the very latest version) don't support Composite, which is needed for Compiz Fusion.
[01:23] <Dr_willis> !envy
[01:23] <nickrud> Montego, iirc your home directory
[01:23] <ubotu> envy is not needed or supported. Use the Resticted Manager to install binary drivers and see « /msg ubotu binarydriver »
[01:23] <Fujitsu> ixlam: Have you ever tried to upgrade with it?
[01:23] <Allenwr> is there a ubuntu channel where we can talk about stuff other then support?
[01:23] <Fujitsu> Allenwr: #ubuntu-offtopic
[01:24] <Allenwr> thanks
[01:24] <BruceM91> that sucks, but thanks for the answer
[01:24] <ixlam> not yet .. but thanks for the heads up !
[01:24] <Fujitsu> BruceM91: Thankyou proprietary drivers.
[01:24] <pteague> why does the master volume control seem to have no effect on the PCM volume?
[01:24] <Slart> ixlam: some of these "3rd party" installers do strange things, use weird shortcuts, use undocumented features etc... sometimes it breaks things in a way that's hard to fix later on
[01:24] <Fujitsu> pteague: Using Intel ICH5 chipset, or other ICH?
[01:24] <BruceM91> I know I did enable a restricted driver, when I did that on another comp, beryl worked fine
[01:24] <Montego> Nickrud ...Ok thanks. I love this Help channel. You guys make it as painless as possible.
[01:25] <Fujitsu> Slart: More `most' than `some'
[01:25] <Fujitsu> BruceM91: It probably doesn't have an ATI graphics card.
[01:25] <nickrud> BruceM91, if you have your direct rendering working, you can install xserver-xgl , then you can enable compiz.
[01:25] <BruceM91> I am pretty sure this comp doesnt
[01:26] <Slart> Fujitsu: hehe.. i haven't tried them all... decided to be nice about it =)
[01:26] <simmerz> is there a utility for configuring mouse buttons in gutsy?
[01:26] <BruceM91> what was 7.10 named again?
[01:26] <redd0t> gutsy
[01:26] <nickrud> gutsy
[01:26] <Fujitsu> BruceM91: `Gutsy Gibbon'
[01:27] <BruceM91> thanks
[01:27] <nickrud> two part names are tough to type :)
[01:27] <Neronious> im trying to install the ubuntu kernel sources is this the same as "sudo apt-get install build-essential"
[01:27] <pteague> ICH4
[01:27] <Slart> pteague: they are different things.. master volume usually affects input from line in, microphone, midi etc.. pcm is just the part playing normal sounds..the blips and boings
[01:27] <LjL> Neronious: no
[01:27] <LjL> !kernel > Neronious    (Neronious, see the private message from Ubotu)
[01:28] <Fujitsu> !intelhda | pteague
[01:28] <ubotu> pteague: For fixing your Intel HDA sound this page has useful information https://help.ubuntu.com/community/HdaIntelSoundHowto
[01:28] <Neronious> thanks ljl
[01:28] <Slart> pteague: but this differs from different sound cards/drivers.. it's just a general observation
[01:29] <Slart> Neronious: nope.. the build-essential just sets up the compiling enviroment.. installs compiler, linker, some basic libs etc.. kernel sources/headers is a different package
[01:30] <BruceM91> has anyone by chance been able to get sound in the gateway ml1309 laptop in ubuntu?
[01:33] <ixlam> Fujitsu:  my "tear offs" are disabled and still the menu is torn off ?.... without restart is there a way to attach ?
[01:33] <kurisutofuaa> I just lost my top bar with my menus how do I get it back?
[01:34] <Fujitsu> ixlam: What if you close the tear-off? Which application?
[01:34] <Fujitsu> kurisutofuaa: Do you still have the bottom one?
[01:34] <neo0101010> hello
[01:34] <kurisutofuaa> Fujitsu: no I don't have that one ether
[01:35] <sam_> hey can someone help me with installing bit torrent on linux?
[01:35] <Fujitsu> kurisutofuaa: Do you have a terminal open?
[01:35] <ChairmanPanya> Anyone know about internet connection sharing? I'm using firestarter and a router. Can ping back and forth, but no connection sharing.
[01:35] <Montego> nickrud would you happen to know what file extension that istanbul uses to save the file. I can't find where it's located.
[01:35] <ixlam> for the Gnome Volume control. I disabled and closed then re-opened and still it id detached
[01:35] <kurisutofuaa> Fujitsu: Yes I have a term open
[01:36] <Fujitsu> kurisutofuaa: Try running gnome-panel
[01:36] <quinton> Noone in the AWN channel is on or helping... will anyone lend me a hand installing AWN? everything I do fails
[01:36] <Fujitsu> quinton: What do you mean it fails?
[01:36] <BruceM91> yea, I got the same problem
[01:36] <BruceM91> but it could be the ati card
[01:36] <quinton> fujitsu, just doesnt let me, says its all wrong
[01:36] <sam_> whoops new problem..
[01:36] <Fujitsu> What's all wrong!?
[01:37] <BruceM91> I know when I tried it it wasnt working in the terminal
[01:37] <quinton> fujitsu, no links work, it doesnt find them,
[01:38] <kurisutofuaa> Fujitsu: that brought it back up (something to add to my list of commands to remember) thanks
[01:38] <quinton> fujitsu, I just need someone to guide me to make it work correctly and uninstall kiba-dock
 I used this http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=572019 and it works perfectly
[01:39] <BruceM91> I get an error when I try to install simdock
[01:39] <quinton> ixlam, actually i dont want it to be curvy like that, i want it to mimic mac os X
  you can jsut change that .. its just a "style " /appearance you can select
[01:40] <quinton> ixlam, oh
[01:40] <billenium> how can i restore ubuntu to its original settings (sort of like formating/restoring)
[01:40] <quinton> ilam, i will try, thank you
[01:41] <Fujitsu> billenium: Why do you want to do that?
[01:41] <BruceM91> so I downloaded a tar.gz of simdock, and I have a bunch of files(I am assuming source), how would I install that
[01:41] <sam_> hey can someone help me with winrar files again?
[01:41] <billenium> futjitsu: because i have like 15gb of stuff i just want to get rid of... does it matter?
[01:41] <sam_> it didn't work with free-rar or whatever
[01:41] <BruceM91> sam:7zop
[01:42] <BruceM91> 7zip
[01:42] <Fujitsu> billenium: You could reinstall, or remove your home directory (/home/username)
[01:42] <Skfarek> btw. is it possible to set 1400x1050 in fb?
[01:42] <sam_> isn't that for windows?
[01:42] <Fujitsu> Skfarek: FB?
[01:42] <BruceM91> and ubuntu
[01:42] <sam_> brucem91: kk thx
[01:42] <BruceM91> np
[01:42] <billenium> Fujitsu: i tried to reinstall but it takes a long time for my computer and stuff...
[01:42] <Fujitsu> billenium: Hm, shouldn't take long...
[01:43] <billenium> and when it gets to the desktop screen (live CD) all the icons and letters are [][][][] boxes and when i double click nothing happens (i waited 10 minutes)
[01:43] <sam_> brucem91: oh wait do i just dl all of them: p7zip, p7zipfull, p7ziprar, xarchive?
[01:43] <billenium> wait not the icons, just the letters
[01:43] <pteague> Fujitsu & Slart> thanks for the help... any suggestions for an audio card that i won't have to do a bunch of extra stuff to fix for my new system?
[01:44] <Agrias> r
[01:45] <LHoT> hello everyone
[01:45] <billenium> Fujitsu: do you have any idea?
[01:46] <billenium> should i try to complete format my computer, than reinstalling ubuntu?
  you could reinstall but simply DoNOT format your /home (select preserve data at partitioning)
[01:46] <produkter> hey when i try to set file associations for .mp3 l(ike so i can open an mp3 with mms by double clicking it) it says cannot add application to application database
[01:46] <Fujitsu> ixlam: Most people don't have a separate /home...
[01:47] <BruceM91> so I am trying to install a .deb, but it says that I dont have permissions to install it
[01:47] <produkter> and if i open mp3s with rhythmbox it freezes
[01:47] <billenium> ixlam: i want everything erased so when i boot up i only have brand new never been used ubuntu
[01:47] <blkbox> Hey, can anybody help with a libdrm issue?
[01:47] <billenium> ixlam: but the CD is being weird
[01:47] <Fujitsu> !ask | blkbox
[01:47] <ubotu> blkbox: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[01:47] <cyzie> hi, is there a way to check the status for the hard disk ?
[01:47] <blkbox> ubotu: sure =]
[01:47] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about sure =] - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[01:47] <Fujitsu> cyzie: What do you mean the status?
[01:48] <billenium> =(...
[01:48] <LHoT> I'm having some compiling issues.
[01:48] <LHoT> http://pastebin.ca/830568
[01:48] <blkbox> ubotu: If I run 'glxgears', I get an error about an undefined symbol:drmCloseOnce
[01:48] <LHoT> Can anyone help?
[01:48] <Fujitsu> billenium: You could create a new user account, which will have be reset, and delete your old one...
[01:49] <billenium> Fujitsu: will that erase all the programs i have installed? I basically want all changes i have ever made removed
[01:49] <Fujitsu> LHoT: You probably want to install libxext-dev.
[01:49] <Fujitsu> billenium: Ah, no.
[01:49] <cyzie> Fujitsu, i like to find out if there is any error (whatever error it is) , when is it manufacture, how long does it operate?
[01:49] <billenium> =\
[01:49] <BruceM91> how do you log in as root?
[01:49] <Fujitsu> cyzie: Try using smartctl from the smart-mon-tools package.
[01:50] <blkbox> If I run 'glxgears', I get an error about an undefined symbol:drmCloseOnce
[01:50] <Fujitsu> BruceM91: Log in as your user, and use sudo -i
[01:50] <LHoT> Fujitsu: With apt, right?
[01:50] <Fujitsu> LHoT: Correct.
[01:50] <billenium> the only problem is the CD... When it gets to the Desktop screen (LiveCD) all the letters are boxes and when i double click on the Install Icon thing nothing comes up...
[01:50] <LHoT> Awesome.
[01:50] <BruceM91> so, for example, log in as brucem sudo -i
[01:50] <TonKi> billenium: try the alternate cd
[01:50] <TonKi> that will work
[01:50] <billenium> alternate CD?
[01:50] <quinton> hey guys, im in my source.list and it says i do not have permission to save the files
[01:51] <TonKi> textual interface
[01:51] <Fujitsu> BruceM91: no, run sudo -i from a terminal once you've logged in.
[01:51] <IndyGunFreak> !permission | quinton
[01:51] <ubotu> quinton: An explanation of how files and directories are organized on Ubuntu, and how they can be manipulated, can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/LinuxFilesystemTreeOverview
[01:51] <BruceM91> oh, okay
[01:51] <noelferreira> i installed now firefox32 bits in my ubuntu amd64.everything works fine including java and flash. however the type of letter or the font size are weird. what is the problem?
[01:51] <billenium> Tonki, i dont understand =\
[01:51] <billenium> i only received one CD
[01:51] <quinton> indygunfreak, that doesnt answer anything why it wont let me replace the file as admin
[01:51] <blkbox> Fujitsu: If I run 'glxgears', I get an error about an undefined symbol:drmCloseOnce
[01:51] <yaztromo> BruceM91, you need to sudo: sudo nano /etc/apt/sources.list -w
[01:51] <IndyGunFreak> quinton: you're not doing it right.
[01:51] <quinton> indygunfreak, ?
[01:51] <cyzie> thanks
[01:52] <TonKi> ok but theres an option for textual interface too imho
[01:52] <IndyGunFreak> quinton: what are you trying to do, replace your current source list, or edit it?
[01:52] <yaztromo> i mean quinton
[01:52] <IndyGunFreak> quinton: and yes, it would hav eanswered your question
[01:52] <IndyGunFreak> you jus tneed to not be lazy and read it
[01:52] <billenium> Tonki: where?
[01:52] <quinton> indygunfreak, k
[01:53] <LHoT> installed libxext-dev, same error
[01:53] <LHoT> :(
[01:53] <quinton> yaztromo,  sudo: sudo nano /etc/apt/sources.list -w
[01:53] <Fujitsu> !find Xrandr.h
[01:53] <TonKi> when you bootup with cd - where you select to boot the livecd
[01:53] <quinton> yaztromo, doesnt work
[01:53] <ubotu> Package/file xrandr.h does not exist in gutsy
[01:53] <cocox> how can i know if i have aiglx installed? i looked in synaptic and nothing is there???
[01:53] <blkbox> If I run 'glxgears', I get an error about an undefined symbol:drmCloseOnce Can anyone help?
[01:53] <yaztromo> sudo nano /etc/apt/sources.lst -w
[01:53] <Fujitsu> !find x11/extensions
[01:53] <yaztromo> then enter your account pass
[01:54] <yaztromo> should work
[01:54] <ubotu> Package/file x11/extensions does not exist in gutsy
[01:54] <IndyGunFreak> yaztromo: do you really think nano is what a newbie should use?
[01:54] <quinton> yaztromo, I just need to add the lines for AWN
[01:54] <Fujitsu> cocox: It's not a package. If you're using Compiz, and haven't set up Xgl, you're using it.
[01:54] <billenium> Tonki: i do not remember seeing that option.. it was only like "Install Ubuntu" and some other ones...
[01:54] <yaztromo> IndyGunFreak, Maybe not, i dunno, all you have to do is edit it then hit ctrl-x
[01:54] <r3n0c> hey, anybody know how to setup a ftp server, that can stream ?
[01:54] <billenium> but i dont remember textual interface
[01:54] <HardDisk> IndyGunFreak, nothing wrong with nano for new users.
[01:54] <BruceM91> how do I make an app run at startup?
[01:55] <cocox> Fujitsu, but when i try to activate desktop efects y received and error message
[01:55] <LHoT> Fujitsu, I'm using a restricted driver, would that be causing a problem?
[01:55] <IndyGunFreak> HardDisk: do you just like to disagree with me?
[01:55] <HardDisk> no seriously
[01:55] <HardDisk> I'm not saying it to spite you.
[01:55] <Fujitsu> LHoT: No.
[01:55] <r3n0c> BruceM91 in sessions, i think in the administration menu
[01:55] <TheEagle> every time i load a flash video applet on a website such as youtube - firefox freezes
[01:55] <robdig> BruceM91: system->preferences->sessions
[01:55] <IndyGunFreak> i didn't say there was anything wrong with it.. i aske dhim if it was the best choice for a new user
[01:55] <cocox> Fujitsu, and the only way to make it work is installing xserver-xgl
[01:55] <HardDisk> gedit is what I usually let new users use.
[01:55] <r3n0c> anybody know how to setup a streaming ftp server?
[01:55] <IndyGunFreak> HardDisk: my point exactly
[01:55] <Fujitsu> cocox: Install xserver-xgl, then. If you're using that, you won't need AIGLX.
[01:55] <quinton> yaztromo, it wont let me save over the old when i add them lines
[01:55] <HardDisk> but nothing wrong with nano, something to get them familiar with cli look.
[01:56]  * robdig likes vim, but agrees that new users should probably use gedit :)
[01:56] <billenium> Tonki: my choices are "Start or Install Ubuntu; Start Ubuntu in safe graphics mode; Check CD for defects;
[01:56] <billenium> Memory Test
[01:56] <billenium> and boot from first harddisk
[01:56] <IndyGunFreak> HardDisk: i didn't say there was anything wrong with nano..
[01:56] <IndyGunFreak> re-examine what i said before commenting
[01:56] <TonKi> billenium, true did you try the safe graphics-mode
[01:56] <HardDisk> I know.
[01:56] <cocox> Fujitsu i installed it but my pc becomes slower so i wanted to try with aiglx
[01:56] <billenium> Tonki: no
[01:56] <billenium> ill try now i guess
[01:56] <billenium> brb
[01:56] <r3n0c> anybody, how can you stream video through an ftp server?
[01:56] <HardDisk> I'm just saying nothing wrong with letting new users use it, even if it's not the best first alternative.
[01:56] <yaztromo> I used nano when i first used nix, it is awesome, but i can see your point IndyGunFreak yes
[01:56] <Fujitsu> cocox: AIGLX is the default. What kind of graphics card do you have?
[01:57] <noelferreira> i installed now firefox32 bits in my ubuntu amd64.everything works fine including java and flash. however the type of letter or the font size are weird. what is the problem?
[01:57] <Fujitsu> r3n0c: FTP doesn't stream...
[01:57] <cocox> Fujitsu build-in intel
[01:57] <r3n0c> Fujitsu ok, lol i dind't think it did, but what would i run to setup a streaming server?
[01:57] <TonKi> try it and if that doesnt work check for defects
[01:57] <Fujitsu> cocox: That should have Compiz activated by default in Ubuntu 7.10
[01:57] <IndyGunFreak> yaztromo: then if you're comfortable with it, thats fine.. but i'd say you're in the minority
[01:57] <HardDisk> noelferreira, msttcorefonts?
[01:57] <r3n0c> Fujitsu so that i could stream media
[01:57] <cocox> Fujitsu yeah compiz is activated... but when i want to activated destok effects it doesnt work
[01:58] <Fujitsu> cocox: Desktop Effects *is* Compiz.
[01:58] <cocox> Fujitsu the only way is installing xserver-xgl
[01:58] <HardDisk> also this "fixes" your font configuration http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=16896
[01:58] <Montego> Anyone know what program I can use to capture a desktop vid . As the one's used on Youtube. Istanbule not working for me.
[01:58] <noelferreira> what are msttcorefonsts?
[01:58] <cocox> Fujitsu yeah by default desktop effects doesnt work
[01:58] <Fujitsu> Montego: What do you mean it won't work?
[01:58] <noelferreira> what are msttcorefonsts? HardDisk
[01:58] <cocox> Fujitsu i have to install xserver-xgl
[01:59] <HardDisk> ms fonts
[01:59] <cocox> Fujitsu but my computer becomes slower
[01:59] <cocox> Fujitsu that why i wanna try aiglx
[01:59] <HardDisk> noelferreira, sudo apt-get install msttcorefonts
[01:59] <crdlb> cocox: what video card?
[01:59] <yaztromo> IndyGunFreak, what is wrong with nano. It gives new uses a good taste of an easy CLI editor
[01:59] <IndyGunFreak> for cryin out loud..
[01:59] <yaztromo> lol
[01:59] <IndyGunFreak> does nobody here understand english comprehension?
[01:59] <cocox> crdlb buildin intel
[01:59] <HardDisk> your sentence is flawed.
[01:59] <sourcemaker> How can I update the linux kernel?
[01:59] <Fujitsu> IndyGunFreak: I don't get what you're saying.
[02:00]  * Fujitsu ducks.
[02:00] <IndyGunFreak> i didn't even begin to suggest, anything was wrong w/ nano
[02:00] <crdlb> cocox: ok you definitely don't want Xgl then
[02:00] <cocox> crdlb why ?
[02:00] <HardDisk> "does nobody" is flawed english.
[02:00] <Poolguy> hi
[02:00] <crdlb> cocox: what's the output of 'lspci | grep VGA' ?
[02:00] <cocox> crdlb that is why i wanna try aixgl
[02:00] <noelferreira> ok HardDisk by the way do you know if there is an amd64 version os skype 2.0?
[02:00] <quinton> yaztromo, You do not have the permissions necessary to save the file. Please check that you typed the location correctly and try again.
[02:00] <IndyGunFreak> HardDisk: if i need an english lesson, i'll hit you up
[02:00] <HardDisk> noelferreira, didn't the one I posted work?
[02:00] <Montego> Fujitsu I click the record then stop . But it has said is saving to disk for 20 min now . I don't see any files. ANd I have to kill process to close it
[02:00] <cocox> cocox@dell:~$ lspci | grep VGA
[02:00] <cocox> 00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation Mobile GM965/GL960 Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 0c)
[02:00] <cocox> crdlb look
[02:00] <Fujitsu> Montego: Tried gtk-recordmydesktop?
[02:01] <noelferreira> no HardDisk it is x386
[02:01] <crdlb> cocox: ok you just need to unblacklist it, join #compiz-fusion
[02:01] <HardDisk> noelferreira, unfortunately no.
[02:01] <Montego> Yes said command not found
[02:01] <noelferreira> ok
[02:01] <Poolguy> Does anyone here know anything about getting a dell flat screen to work with ubuntu 7.04?
[02:01] <noelferreira> i emule it
[02:01] <Lukian> what's the quickest way to compare a list of directories on two hdds and return the differences?
[02:01] <noelferreira> ;)
[02:01] <Fujitsu> Montego: You need to install it...
[02:01] <cocox> crdlb okok thanks
[02:01] <quinton> I recently tried adding the two AWN files to my sources list and I get this message.
[02:01] <quinton> You do not have the permissions necessary to save the file. Please check that you typed the location correctly and try again.
[02:01] <Lukian> (or two specified folders)
[02:01] <Fujitsu> Poolguy: What does it do at the moment such that it doesn't work?

[02:01] <HardDisk> Poolguy, "Did you try to turn it on"
[02:01] <Poolguy> well, it works, but i dont have the proper resolution.
[02:02] <Poolguy> yes HD.
[02:02] <Montego> Fujitsu It's in syn?
[02:02] <Fujitsu> Poolguy: What kind of graphics card? Which version of Ubuntu are you using?
[02:02] <Fujitsu> Montego: Of course.
[02:02] <Montego> ok
[02:02] <IndyGunFreak> quinton: what command did you type in the terminal in order to add the line to your source list?
[02:02] <HardDisk> well resolution issues, is not necessarily a monitor issue.
[02:02] <Poolguy> 7.04 and i am using beryl.
[02:02] <yaztromo> if you werent root when you edited sources.list it won't work - did you definitely use sudo?
[02:02] <Poolguy> i have a crappy GeForce 5200FX
[02:02] <kitofhawaii> Poolguy: many of those monitors have multiple video inputs you have to switch...have you made sure you have the monitor set to the right input?
[02:02] <HardDisk> Poolguy, do you have restricted nvidia drivers enabled?
[02:02] <quinton> indygunfreak, gedit /etc/apt/sources.list
[02:03] <IndyGunFreak> quinton: you've not listened to a word anyone has said here, so im not gonna bother pointing out the obvious
[02:03] <HardDisk> quinton, sudo gedit
[02:03] <Fujitsu> Poolguy: In a terminal, with the monitor plugged in and on, try `sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg', the reboot, and see if it's better.
[02:03] <Poolguy> it runs at 1024x768 fine, but that is the max resolution available on the pulldown menu.
[02:03] <yaztromo> quinton, you need to use "sudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list"
[02:03] <Fujitsu> quinton: Stick gksudo before that.
[02:03] <HardDisk> or gksudo :)
[02:03] <yaztromo> :)
[02:03] <Poolguy> i am not sure about the restricted drivers.
[02:03] <IndyGunFreak> i don't get it, he was told that like, i don't know, at least 5-6x...
[02:03] <Fujitsu> IndyGunFreak: I know..
[02:03] <kitofhawaii> Poolguy: change the monitor then...there's ones for most every resolution
[02:03] <IndyGunFreak> thus spurring the debate over nano
[02:03] <HardDisk> IndyGunFreak, that is expected in this room :)
[02:03] <yaztromo> yes, which spawned is into a nano debate !
[02:04] <IndyGunFreak> HardDisk: well, when you're told the answer repeatedly, its time to start ignoring them
[02:04] <BruceM91> yay, I finally got a dock to work in ubuntu
[02:04] <Poolguy> change the monitor?
[02:04] <HardDisk> Poolguy, system/admin/restricted and check the nvidia restricted drivers are enabled first.
[02:04] <HardDisk> IndyGunFreak, I'm with you brotha.
[02:04] <nickrud> HardDisk, no or about sudo , if he changes a pref using sudo it'll write as root to his home config
[02:04] <quinton> indygunfreak, sorry
[02:05] <HardDisk> sudo gives "temporary root access"
[02:05] <il12> is there a defragmentation tool in Ubuntu?
[02:05] <quinton> indygunfreak, worked
[02:05] <IndyGunFreak> quinton: no need to tell me sorry, just when you have 10 people telling you how to fix it.. listen
[02:05]  * RedHeron prefers sudo -i
[02:05] <HardDisk> il12, if your HD is in EXT3 you don't need defragmenters
[02:05] <kitofhawaii> Poolguy: in system -> admin -> screens and graphics...change it from "plug and play" to the monitor size you have
[02:05] <quinton> indygunfreak now i get a different message
[02:05] <nickrud> HardDisk, with /home/<you> as root, gksudo sets it as /root  (as does sudo -i)
[02:05] <IndyGunFreak> especially when they more or less say the same thing
[02:05] <jimcooncat> looking for tools to manage user preferences; do we have anything, for instance that would sync firefox and tbird prefs (without a third party server)? or a gconf with diff?
[02:05] <IndyGunFreak> quinton: fire away
[02:06] <HardDisk> that is why we use sudo for our lovely new users, and not gksudo
[02:06] <il12> HardDisk: it's an external USB connected HDD...I'm unsure of what EXT3 is
[02:06] <Montego> Fujitsu does  gtk-recordmydesktop save file to Home dir?
[02:06] <Fujitsu> Montego: I'm not quite sure.
[02:06] <quinton> indygunfreak, http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=572019          on the last step after Then finally: it sells me to type the last sudo command. it cannot find the file it needs
[02:06] <Poolguy> when i tried the system/admin/restricted in the command it said no such file or directory
[02:06] <HardDisk> ah so you want to defragment your external HD
[02:06] <Montego> Ok How about file ext. ogg ?
[02:06] <Fujitsu> HardDisk: gksudo gives temporary root access too.
[02:07] <Fujitsu> HardDisk: gksudo is preferred for graphical applications, or you're likely to break permissions.
[02:07] <luis> hello people
[02:07] <HardDisk> break permissions? hardly.
[02:07] <chrometiger> ok, i installed fluxbox and then tried fbdesk   and now when i come back into gnome normally   i got a nautilus error  and my background is gone and all desktop icons ?   what do i do ??
[02:07] <luis> anyone have an HP media center PC?
[02:07] <il12> HardDisk: yes, so that I can install Kubuntu onto it to try so that I can compare it with Ubuntu, so if I don't like Kubuntu I don't have to redo everything I've done on ubuntu.
[02:07] <quinton> indygunfreak, Was that uhm.. understanding enough?
[02:07] <Montego> Fujitsu do you know if it save as .ogg?
[02:07] <Fujitsu> HardDisk: Ahem.
[02:07] <Fujitsu> Montego: I've not used it.
[02:07] <Montego> Ok
[02:07] <IndyGunFreak> quinton: yes, i'm readin git... are you sure you're copying htat line correctly?
[02:07] <nickrud> !gksudo | HardDisk
[02:07] <ubotu> HardDisk: If you need to run graphical applications as root, use « gksudo », as it will set up the environment more appropriately. Never just use "sudo"! (See http://psychocats.net/ubuntu/graphicalsudo to know why)
[02:07] <quinton> indygunfreak, yes, I copy it word for word
[02:07] <HardDisk> meh
[02:07] <IndyGunFreak> quinton: hang on
[02:08] <varsendaggr> !help! how do i change the virtual desktop behavior...   like moving windows between desktops...?
[02:08] <quinton> indygunfreak, sure
[02:08] <Poolguy> in my restricted drivers manager, I have the NVIDIA accelerated graphics driver enabled
[02:08] <luis> anyone here have an HP media center PC?
[02:08] <HardDisk> fine got pwned by my own idiocy.
[02:08] <HardDisk> that's besides the point. :)
[02:08] <xayon> how can I play mp4 on totem?
[02:08] <chrometiger> ok, i installed fluxbox and then tried fbdesk   and now when i come back into gnome normally   i got a nautilus error  and my background is gone and all desktop icons ?   what do i do ??
[02:08] <yaztromo> luis, I have a hp pc running vista?
[02:08] <nickrud> heh. I can relate to that
[02:08] <IndyGunFreak> quinton:  go here, and just download the appropriate deb file for your distro..  http://www.getdeb.net/app.php?name=Avant+Window+Navigator
[02:08] <luis> no yaztromo, I have ubuntu on my media center PC
[02:08] <luis> lol
[02:08] <HardDisk> Poolguy, in terminal, sudo nvidia-settings

[02:09] <quinton> indygunfreak, after that type the same line?
[02:09] <HardDisk> apply, write to x conf
[02:09] <yaztromo> thats ok then :)
[02:09] <luis> but I have a question, yaz, does your media center PC have a slot for a memory stick pro duo?
[02:09] <IndyGunFreak> quinton: no
[02:09] <IndyGunFreak> just download the .deb file
[02:09] <il12> So.... can anyone tell me how I would defragment my external drive?
[02:09] <yaztromo> luis, no, just usb slots
[02:09] <luis> oh
[02:09] <luis> because mine has for pro
[02:09] <HardDisk> il12, if you're installing ubuntu/kubuntu on that drive, you do not need to defrag.
[02:09] <luis> but not pro duo :(
[02:09] <quinton> indygunfreak, and install
[02:09] <nickrud> il12, what kind of partition?
[02:10] <Poolguy> ok hardDisk....what am i looking for in here?
[02:10] <IndyGunFreak> quinton: yup, just double click the .deb file
[02:10] <luis> oh wait, the think came with an adaptor, nice
[02:10] <HardDisk> ubuntu will format it to ext3, which will not require defragmenting
[02:10] <quinton> indygundreak, worked perfect
[02:10] <wordcitizen09> is there any way to chat with sound in ubuntu for yahoo messenger, please
[02:10] <HardDisk> Poolguy, change resolution...
[02:10] <quinton> indygunfreak, now to just uninstall kiba dock
[02:10] <Poolguy> oh i see.
[02:10] <jrattner1> Question: How do I get Amarok to recognize my ipod in Ubuntu (not Kubuntu)?
[02:10] <IndyGunFreak> quinton: it should.
[02:10] <IndyGunFreak> uninstall kiba-dock?
[02:10] <Poolguy> do i need to restart bofore i plug in my LCD?
[02:10] <nickrud> jrattner1, if it's brand new, you can't
[02:11] <sam_> ugh installed everything and .rar files still dont work
[02:11] <il12> HardDisk: it's not a clean HD, will that make any difference?
[02:11] <HardDisk> Poolguy, you should do it with your LCD plugged in...
[02:11] <Poolguy> i had it unplugged cause i put the CRT back on.
[02:11] <IndyGunFreak>  quinton:  you can probably do that in synaptic.
[02:11] <jrattner1> nickrud, really? the new nano won't work with amarok?
[02:11] <nomasteryoda> nickrud, i think the new amarok 1.4.8 can right?
[02:11] <sam_> can someone help me out with rar files
[02:11] <HardDisk> il12, no difference.
[02:11] <Poolguy> oh. i'll shut down and switch monitors then change that.
[02:11] <Poolguy> BRB
[02:11] <Fujitsu> jrattner1: Apple does their best to stop anything but iTunes using iPods.
[02:11] <HardDisk> but who cares for itunes.
[02:11] <Fujitsu> jrattner1: Ubuntu 8.04 LTS has support for them, or should, I believe.
[02:11] <HardDisk> when there's gtkpod :)
[02:11] <noelferreira> HardDisk, i think there's the same problem with font config. do i have to configure anything?
[02:11] <quinton> indygunfreak, awn manager isnt opening
[02:11] <nickrud> jrattner1, the one in ubuntu can't, nomasteryoda the new libgpod can, but ubuntu doesn't have it (just bought a nano)
[02:11] <il12> nickrud: my external HDD is a single partition for now, until I install onto it. :)
[02:11] <wordcitizen09> can someone help me with chatting on yahoo account with sound in ubuntu
[02:11] <quinton> indygunfreak, odd...
[02:11] <nomasteryoda> right
[02:12] <HardDisk> ipods been working all the time
[02:12] <nomasteryoda> that is what i thought
[02:12] <HardDisk> even with rhythmbox
[02:12] <HardDisk> and exaile
[02:12] <HardDisk> and amarok
[02:12] <HardDisk> etc.
[02:12] <IndyGunFreak> quinton: what video device do you have?
[02:12] <IndyGunFreak> and do you have the drivers installed for it.
[02:12] <nickrud> il12, do you intend to give the whole drive to linux? if so, no need to defrag. If you aren't, windows does defrags
[02:12] <Tu13es> hm, I'm forced to 'sudo dhclient' upon boot to get an IP on my wifi network, any ideas?
[02:12] <quinton> indygunfreak, graphics card?
[02:12] <chrometiger> question,  i have logged in to gnome but i have no desktop icons or background ?   need help plz
[02:12] <HardDisk> noelferreira, just download the .fonts.conf I posted from the forum
[02:12] <IndyGunFreak> or chipset if its integrated
[02:12] <il12> HardDisk: so just burn the .iso to a CD, boot from it, click install and then... it will give me the option to choose which drive I want to install it on then, and it won't make a partition that would delete any of my files?
[02:12] <Fujitsu> chrometiger: What happens if you hit Alt+F2 and try to run nautilus?
[02:12] <quinton> indygunfreak, intel pentium 4 and or nvidia 256mb
[02:13] <jrattner1> nickrud, so what do I need to do to get my DRM-free music from linux to my new ipod in ubuntu?
[02:13] <HardDisk> il12, it will ask you if you want to resize to give room
[02:13] <IndyGunFreak> quinton: ok, do you have the nvidia drivers enabled?
[02:13] <quinton> indygunfreak, yes
[02:13] <chrometiger> asked me to run app
[02:13] <Fujitsu> jrattner1: Wait, and/or don't by products from such a nasty company.
[02:13] <sam_> hey can someone help me with rar files?
[02:13] <Fujitsu> s/by/buy/
[02:13] <noelferreira> what forum HardDisk sorrry
[02:13] <HardDisk> sam_, sudo apt-get install unrar rar
[02:13] <il12> nickrud: noooo, I already have quite a bit on there, I could recopy it onto this  computer if I had to but I'd rather not if I can avoid it without having to go halfway around the world.
[02:13] <HardDisk> noelferreira, sec
[02:13] <jrattner1> Fujitsu, but there is no dev software?
[02:13] <nickrud> jrattner1, http://www.gtkpod.org/about.html
[02:13] <Zaelyxon> so is ubuntu really so great?
[02:13] <Fujitsu> jrattner1: No dev software? What?
[02:13] <HardDisk> noelferreira, http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=16896
[02:14] <Fujitsu> Zaelyxon: Of course!
[02:14] <IndyGunFreak> quinton: sorry, i can't explain what problem you might have having, i'm not real familiar w/ avant
[02:14] <nickrud> jrattner1, you'll have to build it until hardy
[02:14] <noelferreira> and what i do with the file HardDisk ?
[02:14] <HardDisk> Zaelyxon, it's only as great as you find it.
[02:14] <quinton> indygunfreak, also when i try to add it to boot with the sysytem it wont find the file
[02:14] <Zaelyxon> is it the best linux?
[02:14] <Menacie> is it worth running ubuntu on a usb stick?
[02:14] <Fujitsu> Zaelyxon: That is subjective.
[02:14] <HardDisk> noelferreira, read the site, it tells you what to do
[02:14] <chrometiger> Fujitsu: asks me to run and app
[02:14] <noelferreira> ok
[02:14] <Zaelyxon> what is your opinion?
[02:14] <Fujitsu> chrometiger: Right, run nautilus.
[02:14] <IndyGunFreak> sam_: what prob ar eyou having with unrar?
[02:14] <jrattner1> nickrud, alright thats not too bad....Atleast there is an option....I'm used to building things anyway I'm an old slacker
[02:14] <nickrud> il12, as far as I know, you can't defrag an ntfs disk from ubuntu,
[02:14] <jrattner1> nickrud, have you heard of anyone making any ubuntu packages for it
[02:14] <Fujitsu> Zaelyxon: My opinion is it's probably the best, but others will think otherwise. I'm biased, though...
[02:14] <nickrud> jrattner1, ah, good on you :)
[02:15] <HardDisk> nickrud, he doesnt need to
[02:15] <sam_> indygunfreak: nevermind harddisk solved it. its always something simple..
[02:15] <IndyGunFreak> quinton: sorry i really don't know the answer to your question.
[02:15] <nickrud> jrattner1, not yet, but I haven't really looked yet.
[02:15] <Zaelyxon> is it great for running games?
[02:15] <IndyGunFreak> sam_: usually
[02:15] <sam_> is hard disk a bot?
[02:15] <HardDisk> il12, just install from the cd, and it will ask you to resize, don't worry about it.
[02:15] <il12> nickrud: ok. but my main concern is that installing onto the hd will partition over some of the files I already have on there.
[02:15] <IndyGunFreak> lol
[02:15] <nickrud> HardDisk, the third gen nano?
[02:15] <HardDisk> sam_, yes.
[02:15] <sam_> oh ok
[02:15] <sam_> just the name comes off as a bot name
[02:15] <BruceM91> does anyone know of something that is similiar to Apples Finder but for Ubuntu?
[02:15] <nickrud> il12, gparted won't let you resize over files
[02:15] <HardDisk> nickrud, does not compute.
[02:15] <rickympl> hi, trying to configure rtorrent, and i get the following error: Unknown keyword 'URL' in '/usr/lib/pkgconfig/libcurl.pc'
[02:15] <Fujitsu> BruceM91: ... Nautilus, the default file manager?
[02:16] <BruceM91> is it possible to make a shortcut on the desktop for that?
[02:16] <nickrud> HardDisk, the software to support the nano's that play videos (3d gen) didn't get released until nov 11, it's not in ubuntu
[02:16] <Fujitsu> BruceM91: The desktop is Nautilus.
[02:16] <BruceM91> oh
[02:16] <chrometiger> Fujitsu:  ok thanx,  just currious why did it do that after leaving fluxbox and then come back to gnome ?
[02:16] <il12> HardDisk: so it won't harm any of the files already on that disk?
[02:16] <Fujitsu> chrometiger: No idea.
[02:16] <HardDisk> nickrud, video ipods yes only recently.
[02:17] <chrometiger> haha thnx though
[02:17] <nickrud> HardDisk, yes, that's what we've been discussing ;p
[02:17] <Menacie> is the new ubuntu going to look like this? cause it looks ace
[02:17] <HardDisk> il12, no, during the installation you will have the option to erase, or resize.

[02:17] <Sretsam> Hey, has anyone here successfully installed the Java sdk with netbeans on Gutsy Gibbon?
[02:17] <drgeb> my xsession crashes during login. I looked at .xsession-errors file and it has following: Checking for Xgl: gnome-session: Fatal IO error 104 (Connection reset by peer) on X server :1.0.
[02:17] <Fujitsu> mansour: No.
[02:17] <Fujitsu> Er, Menacie ^^
[02:17] <Poolguy> well, that didn't do it.
[02:17] <HardDisk> Menacie, read "Mockup"
[02:17] <il12> HardDisk: alright, thank you very much. Is there a recommendation you think I should resize to? it's a 500GB and I've got 300GB+ free left on it.
[02:17] <drgeb> I have pasted xsession-errors file at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/49451/ any ideas why the crash ?
[02:18] <Poolguy> i tried to change it, and the screen wasn't working at all.
[02:18] <Menacie> he must of got the idea from somewhere though
[02:18] <Poolguy> it reverted back to its 1024x768.
[02:18] <HardDisk> il12, as a start if you don't want to let ubuntu do it for you, you can do this, create for example 20-50 gigs of unallocated space using your favorite partition manager, then let ubuntu use all free space.
[02:18] <Poolguy> I also got a bunch of errors in my terminal before the nvidia X server settings window came up.
[02:18] <HardDisk> Menacie, yes it's called being artistic.
[02:19] <BruceM91> how would I put a trash icon on the desktop?
[02:19] <hvgotcodes> does the xgl that comes with gutsy known to have mem leaks?
[02:19] <Sretsam> Having trouble installing the sun java sdk 6 with netbeans on Gutsy Gibbon.  Seems like there's an issue with the theme opening the installation window.  Has anyone done this successfully?
[02:19] <il12> HardDisk:  ok, I don't mind letting ubuntu do it for me, I let it do it on my laptop which I'm on at the moment, I just didn't know if there was a particular size I should ask it to partition the drive to.
[02:19] <HardDisk> BruceM91, sudo apt-get install gtweakui
[02:20] <HardDisk> gtweakui for all you new users, you will love
[02:20] <Poolguy> Here are the errors that I got:

[02:22] <sam_> quick question: what are widgets for ubuntu called again?
[02:22] <HardDisk> gdesklets
[02:22] <redd0t> sam_: a lot of different things.
[02:23] <sam_> i thought it was screenlets?
[02:23] <HardDisk> and wxWidgets
[02:23] <HardDisk> or screenlets
[02:23] <HardDisk> they are all different
[02:23] <sam_> whats the most popular one?
[02:23] <nickrud> sam_, screenlets for compiz
[02:23] <Fujitsu> Ew, wxWidgets.
[02:23] <sam_> or best for ubuntu
[02:23] <HardDisk> screenlets is the most popular.
[02:23] <nickrud> the rest suck (and screenlets are not much better)
[02:23] <HardDisk> true.
[02:23] <HardDisk> I hate them
[02:23] <sam_> oh ok
[02:23] <HardDisk> waste of desktop space.
[02:23] <sam_> i just wanted some so my desktop didnt look so empty
[02:23] <HardDisk> if I want the weather, I just look outside.
[02:23] <sam_> i just have my background as of now
[02:23] <ironfoot> I have a serious problem getting ruby to work is there away to restore mysql and start all over installing rails?
[02:24] <HardDisk> if I want the time, I look at a watch.
[02:24] <BruceM91> i use wxwidgets to get simdock to work
[02:24] <nickrud> lol, I did have the weather app when I had a windowless office
[02:24] <efrenefren> o
[02:24] <Poolguy> HardDisk, here are my errors. http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/49452/
[02:24] <Fujitsu> BruceM91: I don't think wxWidgets is what you think it is.
[02:24] <HardDisk> why me?/
[02:24] <Montego> Fujitsu  gtk-recordmydesktop works but vid is choppy. Thanks will need to work with it and see if I can clean it up.
[02:24] <HardDisk> it's indy's turn
[02:24] <Poolguy> cause you were helping me before.
[02:24] <il12> HardDisk: because you're a bot, remember? ;)
[02:25] <HardDisk> il12, affirmative.
[02:25] <HardDisk> Poolguy, that's nothing to worry about.
[02:25] <ironfoot> is there someone who can get me out of this mess?
[02:25] <BruceM91> no, someone made a .deb for gutsy, and the .deb for simdock they made wouldnt install withough wswidgets
[02:25] <burnte> Ok, here's a question. I have a box running U 7.04 server. sda1 is EXT3, plenty of free space (38GB disk, 23GB used), and it's got a directory that's being served via samba, so I don't want to reformat. I'm trying up upgrade to 7.10 desktop so I have another linux desktop I can hook to when needed, but the installer insists on formatting sda1. Help?
[02:25] <robdig> ironfoot: what do you mean restore mysql?
[02:25] <nickrud> ironfoot, sudo aptitude purge mysql-server-5.0 , say yes to removing databases, and it's history
[02:25] <Fujitsu> burnte: You don't use the installer to upgrade.
[02:26] <Fujitsu> !upgrade | burnte
[02:26] <ubotu> burnte: For upgrading, see the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes
[02:26] <nickrud> ironfoot, then reinstall
[02:26] <HardDisk> burnte, sudo apt-get dist-upgrade ???
[02:26] <il12> HardDisk: dumb question, where does gtweakui install to? as in, under the 'Applications' menu, where is it?
[02:26] <il12> brb
[02:26] <nickrud> Fujitsu, the installer doesn't support sticking in the cd for an upgrade anymore?
[02:26] <Shpook> Man, I really didn't want to spend Christmas Eve Eve diagnosing my computer.
[02:27] <HardDisk> I did say system/preferences
[02:27] <Fujitsu> nickrud: The Desktop CD never did.
[02:27] <il12> nvm. here.
[02:27] <HardDisk> Shpook, wait till after xmas.
[02:27] <ironfoot> nickrud: I have alot of other script that use to run on php but since I tried to hook up ruby on rails I have a real mess on my hands.
[02:27] <nickrud> Fujitsu, eh, never used the desktop anyway, don't remember why I thought that
[02:27] <il12> HardDisk: ty, as I said, it was a dumb question.
[02:27] <ironfoot> (I kept getting  #2002 - The server is not responding (or the local MySQL server's socket is not correctly configured)
[02:28] <nickrud> ironfoot, I'm barely passable with mysql ; you could mysqldump any databases you wanted to keep, or install mysql-admin and do some surgery
[02:28] <fatejudger> what gid and uid must I use in /etc/fstab to mount a partition with read privileges for everyone?
[02:28] <nickrud> ironfoot, and that surpasses my passability :)
[02:29] <HardDisk> also for you compiz freaks, http://tombuntu.com/index.php/2007/08/26/compiz-fusion-tray-icon/ I know it's old, but never too old for new users :)
[02:29] <Zoo> Hey. Has anyone set up fltk?
[02:29] <burnte> awwc crap, no hints on doing this upgrade with the regular CD, so I don't have to reget the alternative one?
[02:29] <HardDisk> burnte, can't you sudo apt-get dist-upgrade?
[02:29] <Fujitsu> burnte: It's not possible without reinstalling - the .desktop CD doesn't actually contain the packages.
[02:29] <burnte> well, I want to go from server to desktop.
[02:29] <Fujitsu> Er, s/\.d/D/
[02:29] <HardDisk> oh
[02:29] <nickrud> fltk? that's so old ....
[02:29] <HardDisk> my bad.
[02:30] <ironfoot>  nickrud: Hey I appreciate the help. I've come here for a week now and so far you have at least tried to help., and I really apprectiate it.
[02:30] <burnte> Fujitsu: Rats.
[02:30] <HardDisk> server to desktop..
[02:30] <burnte> well, thanks, at least I got my answer!
[02:30] <Fujitsu> burnte: You can easily isntall the desktop packages once you've upgraded.
[02:30] <Highlife> Hey guys how do I figure out what my mic device is?
[02:30] <burnte> wasn't the IDEAL answer, but it'll have to do. :)
[02:30] <HardDisk> just apt-get remove server components
[02:30] <HardDisk> then add gui?
[02:30] <Fujitsu> HardDisk: Why do the former at all?
[02:30] <HardDisk> former what
[02:30] <burnte> yeah, I won't be removing the server stuff
[02:30] <Pici> HardDisk: just apt-get install ubuntu-desktop
[02:30] <burnte> oh snap
[02:30] <burnte> that easy?
[02:30] <HardDisk> yea
[02:30] <Fujitsu> That easy, yes.
[02:31] <HardDisk> or kubuntu-desktop
[02:31] <HardDisk> or xfce
[02:31] <burnte> Why the hell didn't you people call me before I started this then? ;)
[02:31] <Highlife> How do I figure out the device name of my mic?
[02:31] <monkee> need help   have a tablet running 7.10 kubunto, trying to get touchpad to work
[02:31] <HardDisk> you never asked.
[02:31] <Fujitsu> burnte: Your main issue was upgrading, as far as I could see.
[02:31] <burnte> HardDisk: You should have anticipated my need! ;)
[02:31] <HardDisk> besides when he said server to desktop, I assumed he wanted to get rid of his server components.
[02:31] <burnte> Fujitsu: I'm being facitious, you've been very helpful.
[02:31] <burnte> I appreciated.
[02:31] <HardDisk> he didn't say he wanted a GUI
[02:31] <burnte> appreciate it, that is.
[02:31] <Poolguy> so what else can I try HardDisk?
[02:31] <burnte> I CAN SPEEK THE GUD INGLISH!
[02:31] <burnte> Thanks all.

[02:32] <monkee> its fujitsu stylistic lt 5-500
[02:32] <HardDisk> and insert the resolutions you want.

[02:33] <Poolguy> i added 1680x1050 in and when i started the computer back up, there was nothing showing on the screen.
[02:33] <HardDisk> yeah, but does your videocard support that resolution?
[02:33] <Poolguy> so i switched monitors back to my CRT, and it was in the proper resolution.
[02:33] <jose-> hi all.  Iºm having problems with X.
[02:33] <HardDisk> you cannot output more than what you're videocard allows.
[02:34] <Stupid^Kid> is some one us the dvorak layout of keymap
[02:34] <Poolguy> ok. how can i check that?
[02:34] <Fujitsu> Stupid^Kid: I do.
[02:34] <jose-> is there a way to turn off all effects?
[02:34] <HardDisk> check your videocard device
[02:34] <Fujitsu> jose-: System->Preferences->Appearance->Desktop Effects.

[02:35] <HardDisk> strange, touchscreen should work out of the box..ESPECIALLY with a fujitsu laptop
[02:35] <cafuego> monkee: Enable the wacom devices in /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[02:35] <Dr_willis> a laptop touch screen is a wacom device?
[02:35] <HardDisk> yea
[02:35] <Fujitsu> StaticVector: What problems do you find?
[02:35] <Fujitsu> Dr_willis: Yep.
[02:35] <Fujitsu> Gah, he left.
[02:35] <HardDisk> because you touch it.

[02:37] <Ziegler> anyone with any experience getting sshd to x11 forward?
[02:37] <HardDisk> also try #irchelp or similar for irc command help.
[02:37] <Fujitsu> Ziegler: Yes.
[02:37] <BruceM91> my homepage is google. WHen I open firefox, I url decides to open : http://www.%u.com. That gives me a server not found screen. Once I hit the home icon however, google opens
[02:37] <cafuego> Ziegler: ssh -X user@remotehost
[02:37] <Ziegler> I am running Feisty on a headless machine.  I would like to use do x11 forwarding to a windows box.  I have an x server setup on windows, and I use putty for ssh.   /etc/ssh/sshd_config has x11 forwarding allowed.  I get Xlib: connection to "localhost:10.0" refused by server when attempting to run a x app.  Any ideas?

[02:38] <Ziegler> just temp...
[02:38] <wers> I'm going to import pictures from a camera. what's the best app for that? F-spot? :)
[02:38] <Ziegler> I am trying to x11forward to work machine
[02:38] <Fujitsu> Ziegler: Is the X server running?
[02:38] <Ziegler> yes
[02:39] <Fujitsu> And accepting connections properly?
[02:39] <Ziegler> xming
[02:39] <cafuego> Ziegler: The X server on windows doesn't behave like one on ubuntu, so dunno.
[02:39] <jose-> not sure what causes my problem.  the panel on the top of my screen sometimes inverts colors
[02:39] <Ziegler> x server on windows works fine...
[02:39] <Fujitsu> Ziegler: That would be a problem with your Windows X server, or PuTTY.
[02:39] <rickympl> when i try the following command: pkg-config --modversion libcurl /  i get the following error: Unknown keyword 'URL' in '/usr/lib/pkgconfig/libcurl.pc', what exactly does this mean??
[02:39] <jose-> sometimes windows leave lines after they close.
[02:39] <cafuego> Ziegler: Except it's not accepting connections.
[02:39]  * cafuego shrugs.
[02:40] <Ziegler> I am able to from x11forward from another linux box

[02:41] <boo__> hey, can someone help me out with my partition tables/boot sector?  i'm using ubuntu and windows, and i can see windows in ubuntu but can't boot it.  the problem doesnt involve windows, i'm apparently not getting ntldr loaded so the problem lies in my bootsectors/grub.
[02:41] <Fujitsu> Stupid^Kid: Ah, hjkl and co?
[02:41] <plux> matrix: well, that kind of depends what window manager you use. :)
[02:41] <Stupid^Kid> yes
[02:41]  * Fujitsu avoids them.
[02:41] <nickrud> matrix, I'm with you, you might like a lighter desktop. Try installing xubuntu-desktop
[02:42] <matrix> plux: i use KDE
[02:42] <plux> matrix: try XFCE, or fluxbox
[02:42] <Fujitsu> Hhaha.
[02:42] <bqmassey> ew, KDE
[02:42] <Fujitsu> Or GNOME, even.
[02:42] <Stupid^Kid> Fujitsu: however i find a string in vim.org   ,but it still doesn't work well
[02:42] <wers> matrix, I am on gnome but I use xfwm4 :D
[02:42] <nickrud> dwm, all the way. Once
[02:42] <plux> Fujitsu: yeah, better than KDE when low on mem. :)
[02:42]  * Fujitsu used to use ion3, but then the author got all nasty.
[02:43] <matrix> ok ,xfce is so so not beautiful
[02:43] <plux> matrix: well, you can skin it
[02:43] <Ziegler> I am able to from x11forward from another linux box.. just not ubuntu
[02:43] <boo__> can anyone help me?
[02:43] <Stupid^Kid> Fujitsu: so i wonder if i can use the langmap just as LANGUAGE,
[02:43] <jose-> -me whistles...waits for help
[02:43] <bqmassey> I need to redo the MBR for my multi-boot (XP and Gutsy) box..  I have a 7.04 disc.  When I boot the CD, what do I do to redo the loader?
[02:43] <HardDisk> can we not have a "zomg..<insert gui here> is da bestest cauze im leet" conversations?
[02:43] <plux> Ziegler: you can x11 forword from any kind of unix via ssh that are running X11, not just Linux. From and to any machine.
[02:44] <jose-> HardDisk- here, here
[02:44] <nickrud> jose-, what effects are you trying to turn off
[02:44] <Ziegler> yes, but I am not able to get ubuntu to do the forwarding
[02:44] <ader10> Ubuntu keeps crashing. If I leave it alone for an hour or more, I can't get the computer to work. The screens are in standby and moving/clicking the mouse or typing on the keyboard doesn't do anything.
[02:44] <burnte> ok, apt-get is looking for linux-image-2.6.20-16-server_2.6.20-16.28_i386.deb and getting a 404, I see blah.33_i386.deb on the servers.
[02:44] <plux> Ziegler: you must edit your ssh conf
[02:44] <Ziegler> I am running Feisty on a headless machine.  I would like to use do x11 forwarding to a windows box.  I have an x server setup on windows, and I use putty for ssh.   /etc/ssh/sshd_config has x11 forwarding allowed.  I get Xlib: connection to "localhost:10.0" refused by server when attempting to run a x app.  Any ideas?
[02:44] <ader10> I just lost 2 hours of work because I forgot to save and left the computer on
[02:44] <HardDisk> ader10, maybe check a powersafe setting?
[02:45] <ader10> HardDisk: How do I check
[02:45] <jose-> nickrud, the effects are off it seems but I still get residual lines when I minimize windows.
[02:45] <HardDisk> ader10, as in check first your bios for power saving mode, try to disable it.
[02:45] <Stupid^Kid> Fujitsu: as you know i can put a language evirnoment variable before app command when typein terminal
[02:45] <Ziegler> plux ssh conf is edited
[02:45] <hal9000> bqmassey- just make sure at the end in the advaned section the "install boot loder on hd0"  is checked
[02:45] <Stupid^Kid> Fujitsu: such as   LANGUAGE=jp gimp
[02:45] <nickrud> Ziegler, if you can forward from another linux, the issue is not ubuntu. Maybe you can find some putty channel that can fix it
[02:45] <plux> Ziegler: x11forwording to windows is a pain. Does that setup work with any other machine?
[02:45] <mitch_> When i want to "Quit" or shut down etc..nothing comes up when i hit the button
[02:45] <bqmassey> hal9000: i'm not reinstalling the system.. just need to reintall grub
[02:45] <Fujitsu> ader10: Are you using desktop effects with an nvidia card?
[02:46] <ader10> HardDisk: I know that I don't have that in my bios
[02:46] <User123> cssource
[02:46] <ader10> Fujitsu: Yes
[02:46] <jose-> nickrud, and often the panel at the top of the screen inverts colors or has blank pieces (wall paper shows) missing...
[02:46] <Ziegler> well maybe I am not saying this right... I am able to forward x apps from other machines to windows....  the only machine  I cannot... is ubuntu machine
[02:46] <Fujitsu> ader10: Try blindly typing your password - you may have a screensaver activated with the infamous compiz+nvidia black windows bug.
[02:46] <HardDisk> ader10, in that case, check your screensaver settings (power manager) and disable things like turn off monitor etc, and troubleshoot to see if that is causing it.
[02:46] <plux> Ziegler: Ah sorry missed that part :/
[02:47] <boo__> bqmassey, if you need to install grub, just boot from a live cd, and type sudo grub.  then you just need to type roo (hdx,x) with x's being your hd/part number, then setup (hdx,x)
[02:47] <ader10> Fujitsu: You sound like you know what you're talking about. I'll do that the next time it happens. Is there a known way to fix it yet?
[02:47] <nickrud> jose-, oh, I think i saw this earlier, didn't realize it was your problem. I didn't answer because I didn't know :)
[02:47] <Silver_Fox> How do i install a bin file?
[02:47] <HardDisk> and listen to Fujitsu if you do indeed have that issue.
[02:47] <boo__> ive reinstalled grub like 6 times today
[02:47] <ader10> HardDisk: OK.
[02:47] <bqmassey> thanks boo__
[02:47] <HardDisk> like I said could be the screensaver.
[02:47] <Silver_Fox> i have PlaneShift_CBV0.3.020-x86.bin on my desktop and i need a command to install it please
[02:48] <google_> hi all people
[02:48] <hal9000> bqmassey- not sure but you could try a "reinstall grub boot " on google
[02:48] <jose-> nickrud, no worries...think anyone else knows?
[02:48] <Traveler7> hey
[02:48] <Fujitsu> Hi google_.

[02:48] <HardDisk> peace.

[02:49] <nickrud> Ziegler, then ignore me :)

[02:49] <Ziegler> nickrud: all help is much appreciated

[02:50] <Fujitsu> ader10: Try Googling around for the nvidia compiz black windows bug. Turning off compiz will fix it... Does entering the password work?
[02:50] <cipher_nemo_> IndyGunFreak: it's an Intel ICH5 AC95 compliant (built-in on an Asus mobo)
[02:50] <QMario> I am trying to record some audio using KRecord, and when I speak into the microphone, record, and attempt to play what I recorded, I don't here a sound. The file size continues to stay at 0KB even! What is the problem?
[02:51] <Fujitsu> QMario: What kind of sound card?
[02:51] <Silver_Fox> Can someone please help me?  :)
[02:51] <IndyGunFreak> cipher_nemo_: is it one of those hda chipsets?
[02:51] <jose-> ciao
[02:51] <QMario> Fujitsu, AC97.
[02:51] <cipher_nemo_> IndyGunFreak: HDA? not sure what that is. It's an old Socket 478 mobo with AGP
[02:52] <IndyGunFreak> cipher_nemo_: open up a terminal and "lspci" and see exactly how it idenfiies your sound device

[02:53] <Dr_willis> Creed,  several ways.. to MOUNT them - you can edit the fstab.. or use the fuse-samba tools,
[02:53] <cipher_nemo_> IndyGunFreak: oops, AC97 compliant, sorry
[02:53] <google_> ahaaaaaaa  :)
[02:53] <UbuntMe> how do i install PlaneShift_CBV0.3.020-x86.bin thats on my desktop?
[02:53] <Traveler7> i hate webcam sites cuz all they do is sit and type the women dont do nothing
[02:53] <Creed> !fuse-samba > Creed
[02:53] <Dr_willis> Creed,  or a frontend like smb4k,  For quick access thers the smb:// feature of Konqueror.
[02:53] <Dr_willis> Personally I like the fuse-samba way. :)
[02:53] <Traveler7> who knows a very good mmorpg that i dont have to dl?
[02:53] <google_> see all   i have error in command ls
[02:53] <Creed> Dr_willis, Im a gnome lover :) lol No Konqueror
[02:53] <Dr_willis> Traveler7,  that sounds like IRC. :)
[02:54] <cipher_nemo_> IndyGunFreak: aplay -l reports two devices at bus 0 and 4, both AC97
[02:54] <Dr_willis> Creed,  gnome has a similer smb:/ thing.
[02:54] <Creed> Dr_willis, got a guide on how to setup fuse-samba?
[02:54] <google_> this is error       Illegal instruction
[02:54] <IndyGunFreak> cipher_nemo_: http://lists.debian.org/debian-user/2007/08/msg00152.html
[02:54] <google_> what?
[02:54] <Dr_willis> Creed,  i installed it and read its docs. :)  You add your user to the fuse group. make a .smb/smb.config file and run tthe tool
[02:54] <nickrud> UbuntMe, cd ~/Desktop && chmod u+x PlaneShift_CBV0.3.020-x86.bin && ./PlaneShift_CBV0.3.020-x86.bin

[02:55] <Dr_willis> Creed,   theres mounting the shares, then thers browsing the shares. :) - the  fuse smb stuff should make the shares apear as local dirs for the programs
[02:55] <google_> yes
[02:56] <Traveler7> how u pvt msg?
[02:56] <Fujitsu> google_: That's *bad*. What kind of hardware are you running it on?
[02:56] <Shpook> cipher_nemo: in the terminal, what happens when you type "aplay -1"?
