[05:53] <Moniker42> do i need to Edit PHP Configuration to Work With MYSQL in edgy?
[05:54] <Odd_Bloke> blankfaze: Do you need to write to the drive?
[05:54] <juano__> blankfaze: pastebin your fstab
[05:54] <Quintin> blankfaze: I *do* hope you regularly backup that stuff.    You can access ext3 from windows
[05:54] <lgc> Quintin, it says my nickname is already registered (by me, if I am right). How can I "log in"?
[05:54] <Quintin> lgc: /msg nickserv identify <password>
[05:55] <Moniker42> lgc, "/msg nickserv identify <password>"
[05:55] <Odd_Bloke> lgc: /msg NickServ IDENTIFY <password>

[05:55] <Odd_Bloke> I lose.
[05:55] <Moniker42> i came in 2nd place...
[05:55] <lgc> Thanks all!
[05:55] <Quintin> !win quintin
[05:55] <blankfaze> quintin:  i don't need to access it from windows.  windows is no longer a part of my life :-).  but i don't have another HD to transfer my music to in order to reformat the one its on

[05:55] <IdleOne> lgc: ^^^ LOOK UP LOL
[05:55] <Quintin> Ok, your bot is an idiot.
[05:55] <kiratik> How do i check disk integrity on server ?
[05:55] <juano__> !pastebin | blankfaze:  paste your /etc/fstab
[05:55] <ubotu> blankfaze:  paste your /etc/fstab: pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (be sure to give the URL of your paste - see also the #ubuntu channel topic)
[05:55] <lgc> Ha! I'm in!
[05:55] <Moniker42> Quintin, ubotu has feelings you know
[05:55] <St3ffen> hi
[05:55] <Crescendo> Quintin, just ranting.  If I had tab completion in Gedit, I wouldn't worry about it. :)

[05:55] <Crescendo> SSH is fine for me.
[05:55] <rbil> Crescendo: and look here at ClientAliveInterval setting ... http://www.brandonhutchinson.com/OpenSSH_ClientAliveInterval.html
[05:55] <St3ffen> when i run 'beryl' i get the following error

[05:56] <cryingfreeman> Hi. Anyone knows if there is some official Ubuntu artwork (logos, slideshows etc) that one can take part of?   A common bot has a lot of cute 'Congratulations <nick> youv'e won a <funny thing>!' messages. :p
[05:57] <rbil> Crescendo: since when did Windoze start doing ssh?
[05:57] <Crescendo> This is why Linux hasn't exploded:  things simply don't work.
[05:57] <bigcx2> ghs
[05:57] <Crescendo> rbil, it doesn't - but you download an SSH client, and it works _fine_
[05:57] <Quintin> Crescendo: Ehm.  It works quite well.
[05:57] <Crescendo> SSH on a Mac works beautiful, too.
[05:57] <Quintin> The uptime on my firewall is well over one hundred days
[05:58] <Quintin> well that's BSD Unix, but still good stuff.
[05:58] <Crescendo> Quintin, sure - I agree.  The technical merit of Linux is great.
[05:58] <Crescendo> Hold on, client phone
[05:58] <reiki_work> SSH works great for me in Ubuntu ... at least since AUGUST of '05 when I started USING it. :)
[05:58] <Quintin> THe 'user-friendliness' is not on par with other commercial projects, yet.  But as far as "working" .. tends to work much better than alternatives.
[05:58] <IdleOne> Quintin: ubotu is not a common bot it isnt here for amusement it is here for informational use only but if you want to play with it try /msg ubotu trigger or #ubuntu-bots
[05:58] <Quintin> IdleOne: all bots are here for my amusement!
[05:59] <IdleOne> Quintin: then go ahead and play with it and see how long that lasts for you :)

[06:01] <blankfaze> thank you infidel
[06:01] <Crescendo> Users should _never_ be forced to terminal, nor should they ever have to do any technical configuring.

[06:01] <IdleOne> !offtopic
[06:01] <ubotu> #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome!
[06:01] <Crescendo> :/
[06:01] <rbil> Crescendo: methinks you're still grumbling. I haven't experienced problems with Ubuntu like I've had with XP.
[06:02] <Quintin> IdleOne: I don't see anything offtopic.
[06:02] <IdleOne> Crescendo: I agree but discuss it in #ubuntu-offtopic :)
[06:02] <juano__> Crescendo: well your right in some things about that
[06:02] <vox754> Crescendo: Come on man. You are just ranting. This is a support channel.
[06:02] <Crescendo> rbil, sure you have.
[06:02] <GoopyMonkey> can anyone help me out on what i need to upgrade from windows XP to linux?
[06:02] <infidel> blankfaze, for what?
[06:02] <IdleOne> Quintin: IT IS OFFTOPIC BECAUSE IT ISNT HELP RELATED
[06:02] <Crescendo> rbil, ever been to a site that requires flash9?
[06:02] <IdleOne> sorry caps
[06:02] <juano__> Crescendo: but i think even in windows users dont feel comfortable and cant make much things work
[06:02] <Quintin> Crescendo: I somewhat agree.  I don't think ubuntu users are forced to do such.  When they are the documention is very *very* specific about what to do.  SSH works great for me
[06:02] <killermach> how do I swith desktops in gnome with the keyboard?
[06:03] <xtknight> killermach: ctrl alt left arrow or right arrow
[06:03] <rbil> Crescendo: no, I hate flash and avoid it if possible.
[06:03] <Quintin> GoopyMonkey: Computer maybe.
[06:03] <juano__> Crescendo: without help, that is
[06:03] <Crescendo> Quintin, sure, and that's all well and dandy.  Problem is, users _don't_ reat documentation
[06:03] <Crescendo> rbil, then you're not a normal user: you're a technical user.
[06:03] <Quintin> Crescendo: Ubuntu is not for that person at the present time.
[06:03] <Crescendo> red*
[06:03] <Crescendo> Quintin, true
[06:03] <Aspid> hello everybody
[06:03] <xtknight> i'm using flash 9 in 64 bit firefox with no problems
[06:03] <Crescendo> Quintin, we're gearing for that direction, though.
[06:03] <xtknight> not that hard, they just have to make a gui for nspluginwrapper and flash
[06:03] <killermach> xtknight: thanks :).. I'm new to gnome, been using KDE since about 1998
[06:03] <Crescendo> xtknight, great - but would my grandma be able to make it work?
[06:04] <Aspid> do you speak in Ukrainian&
[06:04] <reiki_work> The users that don't read documentation are teh same ones currently standing at our Service counter waiting to drop off their machines 'cause they screwed them up. Ubuntu can be a better OS but it doesn't change teh user. :)
[06:04] <Quintin> Crescendo: Rome wasn't built in a day.
[06:04] <GoopyMonkey> I have read it, I just have some questions.
[06:04] <LjL> #ubuntu-offtopic awaits you all...
[06:04] <vieirar> Hi I am running Ubuntu Edgy Eft. For some reason I am running out of disk space. So I did an #df -h it tells me I am Size 71G Used 57G Avail 11G Used 85%
[06:04] <Crescendo> reiki_work, correct - and we just need to make sure we're on the path to change the software to support that user.
[06:04] <Quintin> xtknight: Do you have 32bit libs?
[06:04] <Crescendo> Hey, I work tech support - but I willingly will put myself out of a job
[06:05] <kiratik> Is there any way of checking the integrity of the disk without unmounting it - i need to keep this server up but i suspect the file_system may be going bad - i just need to diagnose - if its bad i'll be able to take it offline and treat it - but is there any way to tell without takign everything offline ?
[06:05] <GoopyMonkey> Does Ubuntu support a USB network adapter?
[06:05] <killermach> xtknight: is there a "point-click" setup for xinerama in gnome ? I have a laptop an added a monitor, but currently I just have two copies of the same screen
[06:05] <vieirar> However when I highlight all folders and files from the root directory it shows only 44.6GB being used. Where is the hidden files and folders taking the other 10+ GB
[06:05] <vox754> GoopyMonkey: it does, but USB is always tricky.
[06:05] <Quintin> kiratik: Anyway to check a filesystem without going offline?  Maybe, don't know.  If you want to know physical drive health, use SMART tools.  apt-get install smartmontools
[06:05] <xtknight> Quintin: no
[06:05] <GoopyMonkey> Ah. That's what I was afraid to hear. :P
[06:06] <xtknight> Quintin: well i do, but yuo dont need em
[06:06] <Quintin> vieirar: Your user account probably doesn't have read perms for everything.
[06:06] <reiki_work> Crescendo: I'm not disagreeing that there are improvements to be made... goodness know I've screwed up the install of an nVidia driver on THREE (count 'em THREE) installations in a row. Stuff like that should be a no-brainer.... however I've also watched windows systems do an MS Meltdown just from trying to upgrade something that MS said should work... *shrug*
[06:06] <LjL> vieirar: files take up more disk space than the actual sum of all sizes would make one believe. small files are particularly sensitive to that
[06:06] <kiratik> Quintin: those are not GUI based are they? I don't want the overhead of installing X on the server
[06:06] <Quintin> xtknight: I should think they're needed for flash.  Isn't it 32bit only?
[06:06] <vieirar> Quintin, I did this from the ROOT user
[06:06] <xtknight> killermach: i don believe so
[06:06] <^Ocean^> hey, is there an easy way of turning IP masq on, so i can share the network's internet connection ?
[06:06] <Quintin> kiratik: No, they are not.
[06:06] <xtknight> Quintin: nspluginwrapper wraps 32bit to 64bit
[06:06] <LjL> vieirar: try making 1000 files of one byte each - they won't take up just 1000 bytes, for sure
[06:06] <Quintin> vieirar: You logged into GUI as root?  That's a no-no
[06:07] <vox754> GoopyMonkey: you should look at compatibility hardware lists somewhere. State your hardware, manufacturer, chipset. For desktop, PCI is better.
[06:07] <Quintin> vieirar: The size of all files isn't going to == your used disk space.  Each file takes up a minimum of 1 cluster on the disk.
[06:07] <kiratik> Its installed - just google it ?
[06:07] <vieirar> Quintin, no I am not logged in as root I have a script that allows me to start nautaluis up as root
[06:07] <Quintin> vieirar: Which is probably going to be 4096 bytes, unless you did something special in your install
[06:07] <vieirar> Quintin, like using gksu
[06:07] <paiiiiii> Im currenly running the live-cd, is it possible to look at the current xorg.conf the live-cd is using?
[06:07] <killermach> xtknight: ok.. Ihave it workin on my main workstation so I have an xor.conf example, just not sure the settings on the laptop
[06:08] <LjL> paiiiiii: sure... gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[06:08] <GoopyMonkey> vos754: OK, just for the record I am using a Belkin 54g USB Network Adapter
[06:08] <vieirar> Quintin, Ahhh ok I did not think of cluster sizes,.
[06:08] <Quintin> paiiiiii: Uhm, nano /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[06:08] <priboy> can anybody suggest a pic viewer?

[06:09] <Pretor1ab> hello
[06:09] <dyrne> priboy: for console or what? i use gqview and then fbi in cli
[06:09] <IdleOne> priboy: mirage
[06:09] <Pretor1ab> i have installed ejabberd and am trying to view the web admin page
[06:09] <Pretor1ab> except the page is just blank
[06:09] <vox754> GoopyMonkey: I think I've heard it. Gotta check.
[06:09] <priboy> thx all, i will take a try
[06:09] <Quintin> Pretor1ab: What do the logs say?
[06:10] <g333k_work> hello, I see ugly characters when I read text in Spanish in the bash, how can I fix that?
[06:10] <Quintin> g333k_work: What local are you using?
[06:10] <Quintin> g333k_work: s/local/locale
[06:10] <Crescendo> reiki_work, _exactly_ - things need to be painless for the enduser.  I like the way Ubuntu is progressing, though.  It's getting there.  7.04 has that proprietary downloader - with a warning.  Which is the way it should be.  One thing I hate about the Linux community is the cult/hive/hippie mind.  Sure, in principal, all software is free, all codecs are free, everything simply works, and is available:  but fact of the matt
[06:10] <Crescendo> er is, there are proprietary softwares - we can't keep shooting for a goal that isn't attainable
[06:10] <g333k_work> Quintin, how do I find this information?
[06:10] <kiratik> How do i find out what filesystems are actually filesystems on the machine ? like   is /home/shlave  isn't on /dev/hda (doesn't exist) - what is the device name of the root filesystem ?
[06:11] <Pretor1ab> ../va/log/ejabberd.log look okay
[06:11] <vox754> GoopyMonkey:check this out http://czarism.com/easy-peasy-wireless-w-ubuntu-debian-linux
[06:11] <Pretor1ab> just a load of http requests
[06:11] <Occasus> my head hurts :(
[06:12] <blankfaze> so, what is the "preferred" filesystem on linux?  ext3?
[06:12] <kjm> kiratik - look at /etc/fstab and the mount point for / - should also tell you FS type
[06:12] <Pretor1ab> a typical line says:
[06:12] <Occasus> blankfaze: reiserFS FTW :)
[06:12] <Pretor1ab> =INFO REPORT[06:12] <Pretor1ab> I(<0.228.0>:ejabberd_listener:90): (#Port<0.357>) Accepted connection {{192,168,0,4},58087} -> {{192,168,0,100},5280}
[06:12] <kjm> blankfaze - that is like asking : "Which is better - vi or emacs?"
[06:12] <Quintin> g333k_work: You shoulhave configured it when you installed ubuntu.
[06:12] <Quintin> kjm: That's a stupid question.
[06:12] <g333k_work> Quintin, I think US english, how can I change it to spanish?
[06:12] <dyrne> blankfaze: depends on what youre using it for. you might want /tmp on another partition as xfs for example
[06:12] <kjm> Quintin - was my point..........read
[06:13] <Quintin> kjm: vi is obviously superior!
[06:13] <kjm> Quintin - sure, until you learn emacs :)
[06:13] <Quintin> kjm: die.
[06:13] <Quintin> blankfaze: Depends on what your goal is.  What is your goal?
[06:13] <Occasus> kjm: vi rocks :)
[06:13] <Crescendo> I wonder, if I have GLX installed on Eft right now, how will the Fawn upgrade go?
[06:13] <blankfaze> quintin: to able to read and write.
[06:14] <Quintin> blankfaze: ext3 is the most reliable and generally easiest to recover data from, but it's also going to be the slowest for a lot of things.  In part because by default it syncs every *five* seconds.
[06:14] <blankfaze> i am asking what to reformat my ntfs disk to
[06:14] <kjm> Quintin: heh.  Sure, vi rocks - but I seem to prefer emacs........but to each their own.
[06:14] <Occasus> hehe :)
[06:14] <Quintin> blankfaze: Something like, e.g. JFS or XFS is going to cache much more aggressively.
[06:14] <vox754> blankfaze: yes is ext3. Though, the first time I installed SUSE 10.0 it used ReiserFS.
[06:14] <Pretor1ab> anyone able to help me with ejabberd please
[06:14] <blankfaze> quintin: well, what would you use, for a disk dedicated to music and pornography?
[06:14] <dyrne> emacs is a better gaming platform i guess..
[06:14] <Pretor1ab> i just get a blank page after logging into the webmin config page
[06:14] <kjm> blankfaze - you get right to the point there :P
[06:15] <Quintin> blankfaze: If it is a lone hard disk?  ext3, with large cluster size, of course.
[06:15] <blankfaze> lol.  now that i think about it, i don't even know HOW to reformat a disk in linux.  i guess i should learn that first.
[06:15] <blankfaze> quintin:  i don't know what a cluster is :-)
[06:15] <Pretor1ab> okay how about a link to an ejabberd help room ?
[06:16] <hitammanis> help
[06:16] <Quintin> blankfaze: A tiny slice on the hard disk.  If you are putting a lot of large files on a disk, and not any small ones, you want at least 1024kbyte clusters, maybe even 4096kbyte.
[06:16] <kjm> with what?
[06:16] <blankfaze> well, there will be some picture files...
[06:16] <Quintin> blankfaze: Two years ago I probably would've said reiser, but I was young then :P
[06:17] <kjm> idealistic youth
[06:17] <blankfaze> anything with a name that stupid can't be any good
[06:17] <K1GPL> are sata drives identified as sda, sdb, etc?
[06:17] <hitammanis> kjm: I'm using Ubuntu from a USB Pen Drive, in windows is there a way to boot Ubuntu in Qemu without using an image or iso?

[06:19] <Quintin> vox754: dunno.  WHAT ARE YOU TRYING TO SAY? :p
[06:19] <paiiiiii> Do the LIVE-CD have any "built-in" burner-app?
[06:19] <dyrne> cybermatt: find / -name ircd.conf
[06:19] <vox754> cybermatt: "locate <filename>"

[06:20] <scratchme> Hi all.
[06:20] <cybermatt> ohh
[06:20] <scratchme> What's the easiest way to get gcc 2.9x onto Ubuntu 6.10?
[06:20] <ndee> hey there, how stable is feisty fawn at the moment? I wanna play around with it a little bit on my notebook to see how well it works.
[06:21] <baracuda> Jrib you meant what by  " !dvd" ?
[06:21] <blankfaze> is there a way to change just the date in the clock applet to a different language?
[06:21] <Quintin> baracuda: ndee Use at your own risk.  Try #ubuntu+1 or whatever.
[06:21] <GoopyMonkey> vox754: Thanks!
[06:21] <dyrne> scratchme: sudo apt-get install gcc-2.95  ?
[06:21] <Quintin> blankfaze: Without changing everything else?
[06:21] <daedra> hey low
[06:21] <vox754> GoopyMonkey: join #ndiswrapper for more info
[06:21] <scratchme> dyrne: I didn't try that, but I guess I assumed since it wasn't in synaptic it wouldn't work if I did gcc-get.
[06:22] <scratchme> er apt-get
[06:22] <christopherl> juano__: put
[06:22] <jrib> baracuda: !dvd tells the bot to give you information about "dvd".  ubotu gave you a link to a wiki page about Seveas' packages.  Seveas' packages contain libdvdcss
[06:22] <paiiiiii> Do Ubuntu have any cd-burner application in the live-cd?
[06:22] <juano__> christopherl: ahh ok
[06:22] <dyrne> scratchme: well it might not be. id did an apt-cache search gcc| grep 2.9   in dapper
[06:22] <Quintin> paiiiiii: Yes.
[06:22] <spy10k> paiiiiii: i think yes
[06:22] <paiiiiii> what cmd?
[06:22] <daedra> cdrecord!
[06:23] <Quintin> paiiiiii: I'm running off of an ubuntu livecd now do to some sysadmin chores, and I've used it to burn 3 CDs already.
[06:23] <vox754> ndee: join #ubuntu+1
[06:23] <Quintin> paiiiiii: Nautilus has built-in CD burning capabilities or you can use a command line tool
[06:23] <spy10k> paiiiiii: "k3b" maybe..
[06:23] <dyrne> paiiiiii: it should be just open cd and drag and drop. though im not exp in gnome/nautilus
[06:23] <Occasus> im off guys
[06:23] <Occasus> speak to you all tomorrow!
[06:23] <blankfaze> does anyone have any opinions about XFS?
[06:23] <cybermatt> find -name ircd.conf -print what is wrong with this command i know ill be hitting myself later
[06:23] <Quintin> paiiiiii: You can, of course, install anything you want while running on the livecd
[06:23] <Amaranth> blankfaze: don't use it unless you have a UPS
[06:23] <blankfaze> haha
[06:24] <blankfaze> k
[06:24] <Amaranth> blankfaze: it does not react well to unsafe shutdowns
[06:24] <Quintin> btw, this livecd is almost as fast as an actual install for me... I guess lots of RAM helps
[06:24] <vox754> cybermatt: use "locate <filename>", is easier.
[06:24] <Quintin> blankfaze: Yes.  It's super!
[06:24] <jrib> baracuda: I'm not sure if that page is very explicit about how to add the repositories.  If you aren't sure just ask
[06:24] <dyrne> blankfaze: if you lose power for some reson corruption often insues. though it is good for systems with power backaup and for /tmp
[06:24] <dyrne> blankfaze: very fast
[06:24] <blankfaze> well i'm torn between reiser and ext3 then.
[06:24] <GoopyMonkey> will I be able to install linux with only one hard drive? When I try to make a partition, it says only 8MB free in the new partition.
[06:25] <Mak76> I agree with Crescendo. We have to face the fact that the end-user does not want to carry with to operating systems forever in his computer. One for complete multimedia and gaming experience and the other for the rest.The problem is : if I want a complete experience, I'll always need proprietary plugins in order to have all the joy from my pc or laptop.  Ubuntu and other linux distros will never be 100% OpenSouce unless someone just needs a syste
[06:25] <Mak76> m to do some programming, use openoffice or.. as a server
[06:25] <paiiiiii> Quintin: can you recommend any dvd-burner app?
[06:25] <daedra> i like me some ext3 because its backwards compatible
[06:25] <blankfaze> i've moved all my music over to my mast so i can reformat.  i'm too lazy to backup my pornography.
[06:25] <Amaranth> blankfaze: reiserfs is abandonware
[06:25] <Dasnipa`> blankfaze, well reiser is going thru some unstable development time due to the selling of the owning company
[06:25] <rbil> blankfaze: it's not a life threatening decision ... your music/porn will live happily on either filesystem
[06:25] <Amaranth> blankfaze: reiser4 is still rather unstable and may stay there
[06:25] <defouled> I have a friend that wants to learn how to program in C under ubuntu, he's complaining that he can't compile stuff, what does he need to apt-get?
[06:25] <Pretor1ab> anyone got ejabberd installed okay?
[06:25] <Amaranth> blankfaze: so really, for a desktop ext3 is the sanest choice
[06:25] <Quintin> paiiiiii: k3b
[06:26] <^Ocean^> Any easy way too set up NAT from my internet netwok too my PPPOE ?
[06:26] <vox754> GoopyMonkey: you need at least 3GB dedicated to a linux partition
[06:26] <Dasnipa`> Amaranth, is not... its just uncertain because of mr reisers legal troubles/selling of reiser for legal fees
[06:26] <Amaranth> paiiiiii: nautilus can burn DVDs
[06:26] <baracuda> So I executed   wget http://free.linux.hp.com/~brett/seveas/freenx/1135D466.gpg -O- | sudo apt-key add -           and now what ?
[06:26] <dyrne> defouled: build-essential then just gcc file.cpp -o whatever
[06:26] <blankfaze> amaranth:  it's a bad idea to smush words together like that.  it pisses on the sanctity of the English lanaguage.
[06:26] <paiiiiii> Amaranth: how, i can't find it.
[06:26] <defouled> dyrne, what about man pages?
[06:26] <baracuda> ooops sorry my mistake
[06:26] <Amaranth> Dasnipa`: reiserfs is abandoned, it's the name for v3
[06:26] <GoopyMonkey> So if I wanted to install linux, I would need to replace windows, or buy a new hard drive?
[06:26] <daedra> what is it mr. rieser is supposed to have done?
[06:26] <Amaranth> !ohmy | blankfaze
[06:26] <ubotu> blankfaze: Please watch your language and keep this channel family friendly.
[06:26] <Quintin> daedra: suspected of murdering his wife.
[06:26] <blankfaze> rbil: i'm too lazy/scared to deal with fuse so i need to reformat my ntfs drive which the music and porn are on
[06:27] <paiiiiii> is it possible to resize a partion? i want to resize the partion /dev/hda1 to 15gb and still have the things on it (total right now: 9gb)
[06:27] <daedra> zomg
[06:27] <Amaranth> paiiiiii: Places->CD/DVD Creator
[06:27] <blankfaze> ZOMG
[06:27] <Amaranth> paiiiiii: and you need to use gparted from a livecd to resize a partition
[06:27] <daedra> that shouldn't really affect the current versions of reiserfs ...
[06:27] <dyrne> defouled: dunno
[06:27] <daedra> but may affect future releases
[06:27] <defouled> dyrne, i see.
[06:27] <dsjgndsgsa> Can anyone tell me how install a theme from www.gnome-look.org/? (Already downloadede one)..
[06:27] <Pretor1ab> ejabberd anyone ?
[06:28] <paiiiiii> Amaranth: hmm, just drag n drop to that?
[06:28] <Amaranth> paiiiiii: yeah
[06:28] <vox754> GoopyMonkey: you don't need to replace it; you may "resize" the windows partition in order to free space.
[06:28] <Amaranth> dsjgndsgsa: open System->Preferences->Themes, drag the .tar.gz for the theme onto the Themes window
[06:28] <blankfaze> dsjgndsgsa:  go into your theme preferences and click the install button
[06:28] <GoopyMonkey> would that limit how many applications i can install under windows?
[06:28] <Pretor1ab> shite
[06:28] <blankfaze> or what amaranth said
[06:28] <dsjgndsgsa> oket thanks will try that!
[06:28] <IdleOne> blankfaze: I honestly dont care what you have on your drive so can you keep the porn refferences to a minimum please. we have kids as young as 10 that come in here and I doubt that it would make a good impression on theyre parents to see you talking about that
[06:28] <scratchme> dyrne: So do you have advice for me to get gcc 2.9x ?
[06:28] <dyrne> dsjgndsgsa: unpack the tar.gz then move the themedirectory to /usr/share/themes/  i think
[06:28] <dsjgndsgsa> ??
[06:29] <blankfaze> idleone:  haha, alright.
[06:29] <Amaranth> GoopyMonkey: resizing your windows partition to make room for linux would reduce the space you have for windows apps, yes
[06:29] <vox754> GoopyMonkey: of course, it is just "space"; buying a new hard drive seems a good option nowadays. They are affordable.
[06:29] <cybermatt> for give my seaming lack of know how
[06:29] <IdleOne> blankfaze: ty :)
[06:29] <cybermatt> i come from slackware
[06:29] <blankfaze> dsjgndsgsa:  ignore that, it's easier the other way
[06:30] <blankfaze> for you
[06:30] <dsjgndsgsa> ah okey
[06:30] <dsjgndsgsa> thanks
[06:30] <blankfaze> ok, incoming noob question:  what is the easiest way to reformat a drive?
[06:30] <vox754> !ask > cybermatt
[06:30] <IdleOne> blankfaze: pop in the ubuntu cd and let it do its thing
[06:30] <dyrne> blankfaze: mkfs.ext3 /dev/hda1
[06:30] <LjL> blankfaze: you format partitions, not drives. mkfs is the command
[06:31] <vox754> blankfaze: use the Knoppix CD, or the Ubuntu Live CD, or GPrted CD, many "easy" options.
[06:31] <daedra> drives are an abomination
[06:31] <daedra> arrg
[06:31] <blankfaze> lol
[06:31] <blankfaze> i'm too stupid!
[06:31] <daedra> though in windows world they are the same thing :S
[06:31] <dyrne> blankfaze: its a lot to take in :)
[06:31] <Amaranth> daedra: they are not
[06:31] <scratchme> I did:   apt-cache search gcc-2      However it doesn't show any entries.  Any suggestions on how to get gcc 2.9x on Ubuntu 6.10?
[06:32] <rbil> blankfaze: have you looked at System ... Administration ... Disks?
[06:32] <LjL> !info gcc-2.05 | scratchme
[06:32] <Amaranth> daedra: most people have just 1 partition for windows on their drive but windows still shows them as different things in disk management :)
[06:32] <LjL> !info gcc-2.95 | scratchme
[06:32] <ubotu> scratchme: Package gcc-2.05 does not exist in edgy, edgy-seveas
[06:32] <blankfaze> dyrne:  yeah, it is.  i can do anything on windows, i feel like a moron in linux
[06:32] <ubotu> scratchme: gcc-2.95: The GNU C compiler. In component universe, is optional. Version 1:2.95.4-24 (edgy), package size 926 kB, installed size 2344 kB
[06:32] <Amaranth> rbil: that only exists in dapper
[06:32] <daedra> Amaranth: windows assigns a drive letter to each partition, making it _appear_ as a whole hard drive of its own
[06:32] <Quintin> scratchme: apt-get install gcc-2.95
[06:32] <rbil> Amaranth: lost in edgy?
[06:33] <jrib> 2.95 is in there, anyone have recommendations for getting g++2.72?
[06:33] <SilverCat> scratchme: Why do you want GCC-2 rather than the newer releases?
[06:33] <Amaranth> daedra: and i've got a "Windows" icon on my desktop with an icon of a HD
[06:33] <Amaranth> rbil: yeah, it was buggy and insecure
[06:33] <scratchme> Quintin: says not available but referenced.
[06:33] <blankfaze> i miss drive letters
[06:33] <Quintin> Amaranth: I don't think disk management does any such thing.  It shows graphical representation of partition sizes
[06:33] <scratchme> SilverCat: Trying to build this:  http://the.earth.li/~martin/sisela/
[06:33] <LjL> jrib: no, but i can suggest you take a sheet of paper, a pencil, print a table of x86 opcodes, and compile :P
[06:33] <Quintin> blankfaze: Drive letters are an abomination, and we will speak of this no more!
[06:33] <Amaranth> Quintin: Developers think you're wrong. :)
[06:33] <jrib> LjL: heh
[06:33] <dyrne> blankfaze: a useful tip is the man -k  or apropos command.  like apropos ext3 would list several possible commands. it basically searches manual pages for you
[06:34] <RyanTMulligan> Has anyone gotten Jedit to work on Ubuntu recently?
[06:34] <daedra> im a scared of compiling kernels :S
[06:34] <Amaranth> Quintin: or do you mean you don't think it can format partitions?
[06:34] <scratchme> I get this output from make:  http://pastebin.ca/342840
[06:34] <cybermatt> ok locate -u ircd.conf give me return to bash
[06:34] <Quintin> Amaranth: I'm talking about the Logical Volume manager in the Computer Managment Console
[06:34] <RyanTMulligan> I try to follow: http://www.cs.cornell.edu/~djm/ubuntu/#jedit and the package indexes seem to time out.
[06:34] <Crescendo> Oh man, you've got to be kidding me.
[06:34] <Crescendo> It's still doing it.
[06:34] <cybermatt> after few secs
[06:34] <Amaranth> Quintin: let me check
[06:34] <Crescendo> And I set the timeouts, too.
[06:34] <Crescendo> :/
[06:34] <scratchme> Google results seem to indicate that I need to upgrade the kernel used in the make, or downgrade gcc to 2.9x
[06:34] <LjL> scratchme, it's in Universe, do you have Universe enabled?
[06:35] <vox754> cybermatt: then there is no such file. You sure?
[06:35] <rbil> Crescendo: and restarted sshd after making changes?
[06:35] <scratchme> LjL: No, let me see how to do that.
[06:35] <LjL> !universe > scratchme    (scratchme, see the private message from Ubotu)
[06:35] <Crescendo> rbil, of course
[06:35] <rbil> Crescendo: running nautilus from the server side?
[06:35] <cybermatt> I just installed ircd via ap-get
[06:36] <DShepherd> is there a video player for linux that allows you to bookmark different points in the video?
[06:36] <vox754> LjL: watch for Crescendo!
[06:36] <IdleOne> LjL: do you type this out everytime (scratchme, see the private message from Ubotu) or do you have a shortcut setup?
[06:36] <cybermatt> then it should work
[06:36] <cybermatt> ???
[06:36] <SilverCat> I'm not finding in the sisela docs where it indicates that you have to use an antiquated version of GCC
[06:37] <SilverCat> will modern GCC fail to compile it correctly?
[06:37] <daedra> woah try http://distrowatch.com/
[06:37] <cybermatt> thats why i asked if anyone knew where it was
[06:37] <Quintin> Amaranth: done checking?
[06:37] <Amaranth> Quintin: yes
[06:37] <daedra> http://distrowatch.com/ "Forbidden - You do not have permission to access / on this server"
[06:38] <daedra> :(
[06:38] <Amaranth> Quintin: disk management shows it as a drive with partitions
[06:38] <vox754> cybermatt: I've never used it, so I don't know what you are up to.
[06:38] <IdleOne> daedra: works for me
[06:38] <cybermatt> ive been trying to find it for 15mins
[06:38] <vox754> !ircd > cybermatt
[06:38] <cybermatt> forget it
[06:38] <daedra> IdleOne: hmm, Konqueror doesn't work for me
[06:39] <Quintin> daedra: hax
[06:39] <alecjw> daedra, WFFM
[06:39] <daedra> Quintin: care to elaborate?
[06:41] <cybermatt> just compile it my self
[06:41] <daedra> alecjw: what does WFFM mean?!
[06:41] <alecjw> daedra, works fine for me
[06:41] <cybermatt> and kernel comp is a sanap
[06:41] <eidolon> hi folks.  i'm having all sorts of problems workin with Edgy Eft (6.10).  i'm following hte instructions in the add/remove applications for running the nvidia driver, but it fails to actually load anything
[06:42] <eidolon> it specifically says "sudo nvidia-glx-config enable" - which I do, and I get "Error: unable to load nvidia kernel driver!  be sure to have installed the nvidia driver for your running kernel."
[06:42] <daedra> I see. Well Konqueror is returning "Forbidden" for that site alone
[06:42] <eidolon> nowhere in the installer does it say waht that is.
[06:42] <cybermatt> if you know what you are doing
[06:42] <daedra> whereas firefox/elinks work
[06:42] <juano__> eidolon: did you install the nvidia driver ?
[06:42] <dyrne> eidolon: sudo apt-get install nvidia-glx  does that show the package already installed?
[06:43] <igcek> ive got wifi on my com, and im wondering how to scan availuble networks?
[06:43] <alecjw> daedra, that's impossible. access forbidden is a server error. not clien
[06:43] <tzbishop> How much space does a Server installation of Ubuntu takes on HD?
[06:43] <eidolon> Reading state information... Done
[06:43] <eidolon> nvidia-glx is already the newest version.
[06:43] <vox754> igcek: join #ndiswrapper
[06:43] <daedra> alecjw: I know!?
[06:43] <Crescendo> And can someone, for the love of god tell me whose idea it was to forget that "Enter your default password to unlock your keyring" involves typing something and pressing enter, and then letting a window pop up on top of that that says "connecting to <server>", where the only option is cancel?
[06:43] <alecjw> tzbishop, ~500mb i htinl
[06:43] <juano__> !wireless
[06:43] <ubotu> Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs
[06:43] <dyrne> igcek: from terminal do "iwlist ath0 scan" or eth1 or wlan0  im not sure about a gui tool
[06:43] <Quintin> eidolon: lsmod
[06:43] <daedra> alecjw: have I been banned from using Konqueror to access them?
[06:43] <Quintin> eidolon: lsmod | grep nvidia
[06:43] <eidolon> lsmod | grep nv returned nothing
[06:44] <Quintin> daedra: ..?  That's an apache error, not a conq error
[06:44] <alecjw> daedra, you cant have been. have you tried refresign it?
[06:44] <eidolon> if i do 'sudo modprobe nvidia', it says "Not loading nvidia module; not used in /etc/X11/xorg.conf'
[06:44] <Quintin> eidolon: So, _obviously_ the kernel module is not installed.
[06:44] <tzbishop> alecjw, I'd like to compile KDE optimizing for my arch like I have done with my Slackware. Is it easy to do? And how would I create the DEB, via checkinstall too?
[06:44] <mindstate> anyone know why i get this error "libGL warning: 3D driver claims to not support visual 0x4b" when i run a glxinfo | grep direct
[06:44] <Amaranth> eidolon: you need to change the driver in xorg.conf from 'nv' to 'nvidia'
[06:44] <Quintin> eidolon: What is your 'driver' in xorg.conf?  is it 'nv'?
[06:44] <daedra> dman
[06:44] <eidolon> Quintin, yes, i got that.  but a) the installer should have done that from synaptic (or whatever add/remove programs is) or commented on it in the release notes.
[06:44] <Amaranth> mindstate: you can ignore it
[06:44] <daedra> *damn thats weird
[06:44] <Amaranth> mindstate: it's from aiglx
[06:44] <eidolon> i'm running a stock 6.10 install.
[06:44] <vox754> mindstate: seems a problem with your video card.
[06:45] <paiiiiii> What filesystem shall i use?
[06:45] <alecjw> tzbishop, yes. and you can get the kde souce by doing apt-get source kde4, and get  kde's dependedncies by running sudo apt-get build-dep kde4
[06:45] <daedra> alecjw: yes, refreshed, changed browser identification to IE/Mozilla/XP EVERYTHING
[06:45] <mindstate> Can i ignore it or is there something wrong lol
[06:45] <Quintin> paiiiiii: For what?
[06:45] <scratchme> Is the easiest way to add the packages from the source-o-matic to take the output save it as a shell script, then run it?
[06:45] <daedra> I guess I can access it via Firefox
[06:45] <eidolon> the 'Driver' in xorg.conf is 'nv'
[06:45] <eidolon> should it be 'nvidia' ?
[06:45] <paiiiiii> Quintin: one for "/", one for "/home", and one for "/boot"
[06:46] <juano__> eidolon: yes, that is if you want 3d rendering
[06:46] <juano__> eidolon: better graphics for games
[06:46] <eidolon> i want any performance at all.  right now it's terrible :)
[06:46] <juano__> eidolon: etc.
[06:46] <Quintin> paiiiiii: Well, what do you want the machine to do?  If you don't know, you should probably just use ext3 for everything.  And you don't need a separate /boot
[06:46] <tzbishop> alecjw, apt-get source retrieves kdebase-source from an ubuntu rep, for example. It compiles too?
[06:46] <vox754> mindstate: you may ignore it. I had the same message when I try to watch TV. Somethings may not work though. You must be specific.
[06:47] <Quintin> eidolon: Yes, change it to nvidia
[06:47] <paiiiiii> Quintin: workstation :)
[06:47] <eidolon> AAARGGHGHHHH
[06:47] <alecjw> tzbishop, no. you compile it the normal way, but then sudo checkinstall rather than sudo make install
[06:47] <daedra> this is so quirky
[06:47] <eidolon> now when i do 'sudo nvidia-glx-config enable' it says "Your x configuration has been altered"
[06:47] <IdleOne> paiiiiii: then go with ext3
[06:47] <Quintin> paiiiiii: ext3.  If you have very regular backups, etc, you might use something else.  For most people ext3
[06:47] <juano__> eidolon: after making the change you need to restart X
[06:47] <eidolon> do i need to run this installer anymore?
[06:47] <mindstate> vox754, well it doesnt really interfere with anything, it comes up when i turn on xawtv for my webcam, but the cam seems to be alright
[06:47] <mindstate> vox754, i was just wondering why
[06:47] <eidolon> or did i just do what the installer would have done anyway?
[06:48] <juano__> eidolon: after changing it to nvidia , hit ctrl + alt + backspace to restart X
[06:48] <tzbishop> alecjw, ok. So apt-get source is useful when you want to get the sources from Ubuntu.... I would compile KDE like I have compiled on Slackware?
[06:48] <juano__> "nv" to "nvidia"
[06:48] <baracuda>  Guys Newbie here can anyone help ... I've been following your links and got absolutely nowhere .. can someone tell me if after entering this command  "" wget http://free.linux.hp.com/~brett/seveas/freenx/1135D466.gpg -O- | sudo apt-key add   "" in the terminal  I have now updated the repositories  ???   appreciate your help
[06:48] <baracuda> man this is frustrating :)
[06:48] <Quintin> tzbishop: that's not advisable.
[06:48] <vox754> mindstate: Same thing with me, with "xawtv", I have a VIA S3 Unichrome Pro.
[06:48] <eidolon> i'm pretty depressed about how bad the state of 6.10 is :(
[06:48] <baracuda>  don't tell me .. welcome to the club
[06:48] <juano__> baracuda: sint it easier to edit sources.list ?
[06:48] <juano__> baracuda: then do sudo apt-get update
[06:48] <Crescendo> No, really. I'd love an answer.
[06:49] <hrnt> is it possible to install ubuntu without a cd drive?
[06:49] <Crescendo> And can someone, for the love of god tell me whose idea it was to forget that "Enter your default password to unlock your keyring" involves typing something and pressing enter, and then letting a window pop up on top of that that says "connecting to <server>", where the only option is cancel?
[06:49] <SecrethX> lol I just found out I have 40g of unformatted HDD space, how can I enlarge my / ?
[06:49] <daedra> Kubuntu 6.06.1 is awesome
[06:49] <mindstate> vox754, im using a ATI Radeon 7000 so i guess all is well heh
[06:49] <alecjw> tzbishop, yep, sut sudo checkinstall indead of sudo make all
[06:49] <Wooksta> has anyone managed to get AllTunes working on ubuntu?
[06:49] <Quintin> baracuda: It looks like you're trying to add a public key.  If you want to add a repo, you need to edit /etc/apt/sources.list or do system > admin > software sources , then apt-get update, apt-get dist-upgrade
[06:49] <Crescendo> 6.06.1 = Ubuntu LTS, SP1?!
[06:49] <baracuda> how do I edit source list ?  if you mean enable multiverse I already haave
[06:49] <IdleOne> !gparted | SecrethX
[06:49] <ubotu> SecrethX: gparted is gparted is a GUI partitioning program, "sudo apt-get install gparted", also available as a live cd http://gparted.sourceforge.net/livecd.php
[06:49] <juano__> baracuda: you can add new repos there
[06:50] <juano__> baracuda: vim /etc/apt/sources.list
[06:50] <fra> #ubuntu-it
[06:50] <mindstate> baracuda, or you can sudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list
[06:50] <alecjw> daedra, can you give me a screenshot please?
[06:50] <SecrethX> IdleOne, I know about gparted, but it is my / I want to enlarge, so I should unmount it, but if I unmount it, how do I run gparted then? o_O
[06:50] <juano__> !gksudo | mindstate
[06:50] <ubotu> mindstate: If you need to run graphical applications as root, use  gksudo , as it will set up the environment more appropriately. Avoid ever using  sudo <GUI-application>
[06:50] <tzbishop> alecjw, I am used to use checkinstall -S to generate a TGZ packages. How could I generate a DEB package?
[06:50] <vox754> mindstate: I think if you see the manual page for your driver "man ati", or similar, you get further instructions on how to enable 3D. You may need to download a new kernel and compile it.
[06:50] <daedra> alecjw: ya sure
[06:50] <alecjw> tzbishop, just plain checkinstall
[06:50] <baracuda> hmm.. I have to absorb all this .. and get back to you guys
[06:50] <daedra> alecjw: recommed any uplad sites?
[06:50] <IdleOne> SecrethX: with the live cd I guess . I have never tried it myself so Im not certain how it is done
[06:50] <daedra> *upload
[06:51] <mindstate> juano__, why should i avoid using sudo
[06:51] <clearzen> I have installed mysql and given the root user a password. However when I use phpMyAdmin to login it gives me a accesss denied error for user root @ localhost. I am trying to log on remotely. Am I doing something wrong?
[06:51] <alecjw> daedra, http://xs.to
[06:51] <SecrethX> IdleOne, ok, ill look onto that :) thanks anyway
[06:51] <juano__> mindstate: for graphical apps
[06:51] <baracuda>  I am not sure I get any of it .. all I am trying to do is install codecs so I could watch my movies :((
[06:51] <juano__> baracuda: why dont you use synaptic ?
[06:51] <mindstate> vox754, well i've got 3d enabled when i run glxinfo | grep direct ..direct rendering says yes
[06:51] <juano__> baracuda: isnt that easier ?
[06:51] <Quintin> vox754: there is no need to compile kernel
[06:51] <tzbishop> alecjw, thank you very much
[06:51] <baracuda>  xvid is free source and I don't understand why they didn't include it as default
[06:51] <fra> #bigbug
[06:52] <baracuda>  juano I use kubuntu .. I can't see the synaptic manager
[06:52] <clearzen> baracuda: try automatix, it has all the codecs. Or easy ubuntu
[06:52] <IdleOne> !automatix | clearzen
[06:52] <ubotu> clearzen: automatix is a script that tries to install some software, and often fails and breaks systems. We don't provide support for it, and we strongly discourage its use. Problems caused by Automatix are often hard to track and solve, and it might sometimes be easier to !install a fresh copy of Ubuntu. See also !WorksForMe

[06:52] <tonyyarusso> don't
[06:52] <mindstate> juano__, thanks :)
[06:52] <Quintin> automatix is crap.
[06:52] <vox754> Quintin: I'm not sure. But I kind of read that for my case. Maybe compile a driver module.
[06:52] <Quintin> Bassguy: avoid automatix, kthnx.
[06:52] <baracuda> where do I get this automatix ?
[06:52] <juano__> mindstate: no prob :-)
[06:52] <IdleOne> baracuda: you dont want it
[06:52] <juano__> mindstate: in KDE its kdesu, GNOME is gksudo
[06:52] <tonyyarusso> baracuda: A few levels past purgatory
[06:53] <Quintin> vox754: to get dri compiling kernel module is often necessary
[06:53] <clearzen> baracuda: It has a wiki google it
[06:53] <tonyyarusso> baracuda: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RestrictedFormats instead
[06:53] <daedra> alecjw: http://xs312.xs.to/xs312/07062/distropoo.png
[06:53] <baracuda>  ok @Idleone :)
[06:53] <fra> #ubuntu-it
[06:53] <Quintin> baracuda: follow that pasted link, it will do about everything you need.  also, get mplayer or vlc.  'totem' is useless crap!
[06:53] <juano__> Quintin: your right, automatix sux
[06:53] <IdleOne> clearzen: please do not recoomend automatix here. it breaks systems and we cannot help him if he uses automatix. baracuda you want to reinstall then go ahead but you will be on your own if you use automatix :/
[06:54] <mindstate> juano__, im using XFCE4 gksudo works
[06:54] <maddash> Quintin: what's wrong with totem?
[06:54] <maddash> !automatix

[06:54] <juano__> mindstate: well yeah, if its installed it will work in any DE
[06:54] <clearzen> omg, sorry...wow
[06:54] <baracuda>  yeah quintin I perfer vlc because they usually include some codecs
[06:54] <juano__> mindstate: just that each one has its own i think
[06:55] <juano__> mindstate: im not sure about XFCE4
[06:55] <Quintin> maddash: it's crap.  It's slow, and it's crap.
[06:55] <baracuda> ubotu I guess automatix is out then :)
[06:55] <mindstate> juano__, well if gksudo is working then i guess its ok :)
[06:55] <juano__> mindstate: yeah
[06:55] <daedra> http://xs312.xs.to/xs312/07062/distropoo.png
[06:55] <maddash> Quintin: you didn't answer my question...
[06:55] <juano__> mindstate: look it up though, im sure XFCE has one of its own
[06:55] <Quintin> maddash: yes I did.
[06:55] <daedra> thar be my unsuccessful konqueror page load
[06:55] <maddash> baracuda: uBOTu is a bot
[06:56] <clearzen> Can I log in as root remotely using phpmyadmin?
[06:56] <juano__> maddash: decent player is mplayer
[06:56] <mzuverink> whats the proper way to chmod to read/write, recursive for a whole dir?
[06:56] <mindstate> juano__, yeah im checking it out now
[06:56] <daedra> !ubotu
[06:56] <ubotu> I am ubotu, all-knowing infobot. You can browse my brain at http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl - Usage info: http://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuBots
[06:56] <juano__> maddash: but mostly depends on the codecs you have
[06:56] <clearzen> log on as root to my sql that is
[06:56] <juano__> maddash: not the player
[06:56] <baracuda> yeahhh Maddash he's just sent me a message... I am talking to bots now .... how frustrating ;0
[06:56] <hitammanis> Trying to boot Ubuntu in Qemu I get this error: /bin/sh: can't access tty: job control turned off

[06:56] <Quintin> mzuverink: cd /my/dir && chmod -R xxx .
[06:57] <anthonyj> how do you make bootdisks?
[06:57] <tzbishop> How can I install Ubuntu using ReiserFS?
[06:57] <anthonyj> nevermind
[06:57] <Quintin> tzbishop: Select reiser when you get to formatting partitions .. ?
[06:58] <gibbs> Oh wow! Xchat hid the usernames (feels stupid)
[06:58] <mzuverink> Quintin, the xxx stands for what, i want it to be read/write by all, is that lik 777?
[06:58] <alecjw> daedra, hmmm.... have you tried restarting konqeror? if not, i don't know waht else to suggest other htan asking in #kubuntu. sorry
[06:58] <maddash> mzuverink: 666
[06:58] <vox754> tzbishop: I think the Live CD doesn't allow you to create ReiserFS but you can create it with the Knoppix CD, then install normally. I did it once because I had SUSE which used ReiserFS.
[06:58] <maddash> mzuverink: not 777
[06:58] <daedra> kk
[06:58] <Quintin> mzuverink: yes.  you win.
[06:58] <daedra> I will restart x.org
[06:58] <baracuda> tell me guys doesn't ubunto have a synaptic manager ?
[06:58] <daedra> alecjw: thanks
[06:58] <LycanNYC-work> !vmware
[06:58] <ubotu> VMWare Player is in Ubuntu's !Multiverse repository (package "vmware-player"), and http://www.easyvmx.com/easyvmx.shtml can create VMs for it. For VMWare Server, instructions can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VMware
[06:58] <IdleOne> baracuda: yes
[06:58] <juano__> !xsudo
[06:59] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about xsudo - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[06:59] <mzuverink> Quintin, I win?
[06:59] <juano__> !kdesu
[06:59] <ubotu> In KDE, use  kdesu  to run graphical applications with root privileges when you have to. Do *not* use  sudo <GUI application> ; you can muck up your permissions/config files. For what to use in GNOME, see !gksudo
[06:59] <baracuda> I mean kubuntu actually soory .. I am using the kde version of ubuntu
[06:59] <mindstate> juano__, lol
[06:59] <Quintin> mzuverink: 777 gives all perms to all users.
[06:59] <alecjw> baracuda, yes. system>>administration>>synaptic (or package manager or osmething)
[06:59] <juano__> mindstate: hehe
[06:59] <Quintin> mzuverink: if you want just rw, but not x, it would be 666
[06:59] <IdleOne> baracuda: kubuntu uses Adept package manager
[06:59] <mzuverink> Quintin, I thank you kindly
[06:59] <Quintin> mzuverink: no problem
[06:59] <alecjw> baracuda, ok. then it has adept isntead. you can porably isntall synaptic via sudo aptitude install synaptic
[07:00] <baracuda> idleone that's what I thought .. I guess I was asking for too much :)
[07:00] <IdleOne> baracuda: but yeah you can install synaptic
[07:01] <mindstate> juano__, i dont think theres one for XFCE just for gnome and kde
[07:01] <baracuda> my first task now is to update the adept manager with the new repositories I guess ..
[07:01] <juano__> !xsu
[07:01] <ubotu> xsu: Allow users to run commands as root, after prompting for password.. In component universe, is optional. Version 0.2.3-2 (edgy), package size 90 kB, installed size 176 kB
[07:01] <mindstate> ha!
[07:01] <juano__> mindstate: heheh
[07:01] <mindstate> juano__, i tried that cmd and it didnt work
[07:02] <mindstate> juano__, before u showed it :)
[07:02] <juano__> mindstate: sudo apt-get install xsu
[07:02] <mindstate> yeah
[07:02] <mindstate> juano__, thats good stuff
[07:02] <uiiu> hi, dows anyone know how to find out the IP of your internet gateway or dhcp server? thanks
[07:02] <uiiu> (from the command line)
[07:02] <mindstate> juano__, guess i can remove gksudo
[07:02] <Quintin> uiiu: man ifconfig
[07:02] <baracuda> brb , gonna do some more reading :)
[07:03] <daedra> alecjw: could you paste me back my screenshot link
[07:03] <juano__> !gnome-sudo
[07:03] <uiiu> quitin: maybe i'm just slow...but i tried that. with ifconfig i can see the broadcast, my own IP etc....but not the gateway or the default dhcp...
[07:03] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about gnome-sudo - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[07:03] <juano__> mindstate: well
[07:03] <alecjw> daedra, http://xs312.xs.to/xs312/07062/distropoo.png
[07:03] <daedra> alecjw: just bringing the topic over to #kubuntu, thanks
[07:03] <nitro4ce> i need to install codeblocks codeblocks.org isn't there a package in the repo for this app?
[07:03] <juano__> mindstate: lets see if there is another
[07:03] <juano__> mindstate: sec
[07:03] <Quintin> uiiu: sudo dhclient eth0
[07:03] <mindstate> juano__, ok
[07:04] <Juhaz> there's nothing gnome specific about gksudo, it's gtk app, just as home in xfce as in gnome
[07:04] <nitro4ce> http://codeblocks.org
[07:04] <uiiu> quintin: perfect. THANKS.
[07:04] <mindstate> Juhaz, seeme'd like it too
[07:04] <Quintin> uiiu: <high five>
[07:04] <juano__> !gksu
[07:04] <ubotu> If you need to run graphical applications as root, use  gksudo , as it will set up the environment more appropriately. Avoid ever using  sudo <GUI-application>
[07:05] <Majinho> Hi! Can someone help me?

[07:05] <befa> olaaaaaaaaaaa
[07:05] <maddash> Juhaz: you're wrong. have you taken a look at gksu depends?
[07:06] <Majinho> Can someone help me?
[07:06] <LinuxHelp> !kqemu

[07:06] <maddash> !ask | Majinho
[07:06] <ubotu> Majinho: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[07:06] <IdleOne> !someone | Majinho
[07:06] <ubotu> Majinho: A large amount of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..."  Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out?
[07:06] <vox754> juano__: never used "gksu", it gave me this "GnomeUI-WARNING **: While connecting to session manager:Authentication Rejected, reason : None of the authentication protocols specified are supported and host-based authentication failed."
[07:06] <Majinho> Aaah ok :-)
[07:07] <juano__> vox754: yea, i use gksudo or kdesu , i was just checking out what others were there to use, thanks :-)
[07:07] <vox754> juano__: the only "graphical" application I used with root privileges is "gedit". Is this a problem?
[07:07] <Majinho> I downloaded ubuntu 6.10 for x386, but I have some video problems when starting the CD... Even when I choose 800x600 and 640x480 @ vga... The screen is unreadable... What is the refresh rate?
[07:07] <maddash> vox754: that's fine
[07:07] <Gl3nn> Say a good mp3player, so can play shoutcast steams?
[07:07] <fra> #ubuntu-it
[07:08] <juano__> vox754: not at all

[07:08] <clearzen> Does anyone know where the .pid file that contains the server's process ID for mysql is located in ubuntu?
[07:08] <Myk0> hi guys.
[07:08] <mzuverink> Ive got a WD Passport usb hd, its labled as WD Passport, mounted as /media.WD Passport.  Its /dev/sda.  For some reason chmod does not like the space in the drive name.  How do I rename that drive to something like "Portable"?
[07:08] <maddash> Majinho: have you tried the appending "vga=771" at the end of "boot: "?
[07:08] <maddash> russ_: edit your /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[07:09] <lawine> clearzen: /var/run/ ?
[07:09] <SecrethX> !partiton
[07:09] <maddash> russ_: or run `sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg` and select 1024x768 when asked for screen resolutions
[07:09] <SecrethX> argh
[07:09] <Skyrail> Anyone know of what programs I could use for music production, i.e. synthesizer software, MIDI stuff

[07:10] <Myk0> dyrne: seems as if its hardware related

[07:10] <Myk0> just cant boot any ppc loader i dont know why
[07:10] <LinuxHelp> Erm, this guide, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WindowsXPUnderQemuHowTo , says that I must install the kqemu-source package, but I can't find that under Synaptic, where do I get it?
[07:10] <Myk0> idlelone: from ubuntu.com offical and burning them properly
[07:10] <vox754> mzuverink: have you tried "chmod <whatever> /media/WD\ Passport"
[07:10] <clearzen> lawine: Dosen't look like it. I think I'm just going to remove/reinstall mysql I think that will be the quickest route
[07:11] <russ_> madfash: Aparintly that package is not installed
[07:11] <russ_> I am running off of the Install CD tho
[07:11] <Myk0> ive been googling forever havnt found any answers to linux boot problems of this sort

[07:14] <neighborlee> russ_: I may be wrong, but I have the livecCD, and I could have swore there is a text installer
[07:14] <clearzen> lawine: Does it mean mysql isn't running?

[07:15] <neighborlee> well
[07:16] <GaiaX11> mindstate: thx :-)

[07:17] <Quintin> piratepenguin: ask some canonical PR person
[07:17] <lawine> clearzen: no other output? then mysqld is not running (which explains why you can't find the .pid file)
[07:17] <Quintin> russ_: No I don't, sorry.

[07:17] <piratepenguin> Quintin, hmm I was hoping to just get a quick idea.
[07:17] <Quintin> russ_: cause I'm fo sho it supports it.  it would be dumb if it didn't..
[07:18] <mindstate> baracuda, Xubuntu :)
[07:18] <IdleOne> russ_: because there is always a way just a question of finding it :)
[07:18] <lawine> clearzen: np :)
[07:18] <Quintin> piratepenguin: someone else may know, I don't.
[07:18] <Quintin> baracuda: do you have an amd64 cpu ?
[07:18] <russ_> okay im gonna try an older CD hold on...
[07:18] <Trixsey> Stupid lexmark, I download their linux driver package for my printer and it includes ALL printer drivers.. EXCEPT mine
[07:18] <Trixsey> like wtf :P
[07:18] <Quintin> Trixsey: lol
[07:18] <baracuda> lol @ mindstate .. I don't know if that's a joke or shall I look for it :))
[07:18] <mindstate> baracuda, you should look for it lol
[07:19] <IdleOne> Trixsey: probably can use one of the other drivers
[07:19] <mindstate> !xubutun | baracuda
[07:19] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about xubutun - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[07:19] <mindstate> !xubuntu | baracuda
[07:19] <ubotu> baracuda: xubuntu is Ubuntu with Xfce instead of Gnome. For more info, see http://www.xubuntu.org and http://wiki.ubuntu.com/Xubuntu/ - To install from Ubuntu: "sudo apt-get install xubuntu-desktop". | For support, see #xubuntu | See also: !ubuntu and !xubuntu-channels
[07:19] <alecjw> Trixsey, lexmark doesnt have very good linux support. if buying a new printer (ebay your lexmark?) is an option, epsons and HPs are good.
[07:19] <neighborlee> russ_: ok sadly I am mistaken..I have not used altenate for ages, so I might be thinking of a diff. distro entirely ;(
[07:19] <baracuda>  mindstate I've given up ..  this mess can't be sorted,  I can't even start kaffeine now that I enabled multiversee :( .. it could be another reason too .
[07:19] <lawine> Trixsey: indeed, WFT, sounds like HP, (on windows, but anyway, their driver download is over 100Megs); another wtf :)
[07:20] <delta> neighborlee, do you have an error line to paste?
[07:20] <alecjw> Trixsey, my parents got an HP all in one machine (printer, scanner,copier) for about 30GBP
[07:20] <vox754> baracuda: yes, it's better to get x86 even for AMD64 processors. Get it now.
[07:20] <neighborlee> delta: no I dont, I would have to reboot it and  write down and return, which is doable
[07:20] <neighborlee> delta: ill do that right now
[07:21] <vox754> mzuverink: I'm not sure if it is possible to change permissions of mounted usb sticks the way you want. I've never tried it.
[07:21] <baracuda> vox754  I'll give it a consideration but right now I'm off to see my matee bill gates.. got some work to do, thanks for the support guys ... bye all
[07:22] <mindstate> baracuda, boo
[07:22] <baracuda> don't worry mindstate ... i'll be back  ;)
[07:22] <baracuda>  bye
[07:22] <neighborlee> delta: brb
[07:23] <scratchme> Is the easiest way to add the packages from the source-o-matic to take the output save it as a shell script, then run it?
[07:23] <kane77> hi...
[07:23] <mzuverink> vox754, nothing seems to work, my hypothisis is that you can do it on a portable media
[07:23] <kane77> how does the vlc skins work??

[07:25] <gisasi> hello
[07:25] <mindstate> hello gisasi
[07:25] <gisasi> any help for me with ubuntu/asterisk?
[07:25] <LiENUS> how do i use network manager instead of the default ubuntu manager?
[07:26] <Heroin> Can someone tell me howto create a bittorent tracker?
[07:26] <vox754> Quintin: ha, no, just wanted to give it a try. In my opinion it should says something like "don't say hi!, just ask your question"
[07:26] <vox754> !ask > gisasi
[07:26] <gisasi> please, let me know
[07:26] <kaoz> how do I format my Swap Partition... it is full
[07:26] <Quintin> Heroin: the 'utorrent' windows BT client has a built-in tracker that works.
[07:27] <vox754> Heroin: you should ask on a bittorrent tracker forum.
[07:27] <piratepenguin> Quintin, doesn't the official client too?
[07:27] <priboy> what should i do when there is a zombie process?
[07:27] <dyrne> Heroin: or try ubuntuforums.org maybe
[07:27] <Quintin> piratepenguin: no idea.  the official client is crap anyway.
[07:27] <Quintin> priboy: kill
[07:27] <kaoz> quintin do you know anything about swap partitions?
[07:27] <AmaroqWolf> Does anybody know where .desktop files are located?
[07:28] <Heroin> Quintin well i need a CLI client + tracker
[07:28] <Quintin> priboy: If that doesn't work, extreme measures are needed.

[07:28] <vox754> !swap > kaos
[07:28] <freezey> whats the best FTP service for ubuntu?
[07:28] <piratepenguin> Quintin, I disagree. Have you used it lately? Since 5.0? You might wanna reevaluate it, I used to hate it too, it's much improved
[07:28] <IdleOne> !swap | kaoz
[07:28] <ubotu> kaoz: swap is used to move unused programs and data out of main memory to make your system faster. It can also be used as extra memory if you don't have enough. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SwapFaq for more info
[07:28] <kaoz> !swap
[07:28] <Quintin> freezey: FTP is inherently insecure, recommend you don't use it.
[07:28] <Quintin> kaoz: Yes.  What's up?
[07:28] <alecjw> AmaroqWolf, they're stord in differnt places for differnet thigns. things in your menus would be soredi n differnt places to htingsi n your taskbar, for example
[07:28] <mindstate> ssh is better :)
[07:28] <freezey> Quintin: the ftp service is just used to host videos inside of a firewalled network
[07:29] <Quintin> freezey: Why not SMB?
[07:29] <AmaroqWolf> alecj, ah, okay. Where are the ones for the menus stored?
[07:29] <kaoz> ok... i am trying to patch world of warcraft and i get a message saying i am out of harddrive space... i looked on swap partition and it is showing full
[07:29] <scratchme> Hey, you guys are great.  Adding the universe repository was exactly what I needed.
[07:29] <AmaroqWolf> *alecjw
[07:29] <scratchme> Thanks guys!
[07:29] <spacebear> hey just installed ubuntu without kde or gnome... how do i get programs to be able to open displays with graphic now ?
[07:29] <kaoz> i have a 5gig partition setup for swap
[07:29] <freezey> quintin: Its for teachers to be able to login and upload their videos so i can stream them through a website for them
[07:29] <scratchme> Hopefully I can compile this build now.
[07:30] <kaoz> so do i need to format swap?
[07:30] <cricri> how do you mount a memory card with linux
[07:30] <IdleOne> scratchme: you probably want to sudo aptitude install build-essential before trying to compile
[07:30] <kaoz> or how can i look on that partition to see whats there?
[07:30] <freezey> quintin: what would you recommend
[07:30] <Quintin> freezey: I see.  I would use SMB.  There is proftpd, vsftpd, wuftpd for linux.
[07:30] <vox754> kaoz: 5 GB is too much; 2 GB is enough.
[07:30] <freezey> quintin: it needs to have sso
[07:30] <Quintin> freezey: Samba.
[07:30] <IdleOne> kaoz: no you dont swap is used like a temporary storage/ram when your system needs it
[07:30] <freezey> quintin: does SMB have sso?
[07:30] <Quintin> freezey: sso?
[07:31] <kaoz> i let the installer automatically set it when i installed ubuntu
[07:31] <freezey> quintin: single sign on... yeah well samba doesnt have that
[07:31] <Dimensions> hiya i have backup my Thunderbird mails a while ago ... now how do i restore those mails ?
[07:31] <kaoz> ok so what would cause a messag syaing I am out of hardrive space?
[07:31] <Quintin> kaoz: man mkswap man swapon man swapoff
[07:31] <vox754> kaoz: if it says you need Hard drive, then your disk is full not your swap. How do you know your swap is full in the first place? "free -m"
[07:31] <freezey> quintin: which one of those FTP services has a GUI?
[07:31] <Quintin> freezey: You can make a public share quite easily.
[07:32] <kaoz> oh swap isnt full
[07:32] <Quintin> kaoz: open a terminal and type df -h
[07:32] <IdleOne> kaoz: you probably downloaded to many copywritten mp3's or something :) and now you need to start burning to cd's and making room :)
[07:32] <kaoz> so what would cause a message like that?
[07:32] <freezey> quintin: yeah that is pretty true...
[07:32] <mindstate> IdleOne, lol
[07:32] <kaoz> i have over 100gigs free on my ubuntu install
[07:32] <freezey> quintin: but policy i have to follow they want an FTP...
[07:32] <kaoz> it isnt a space issue
[07:32] <IdleOne> mindstate: :)
[07:32] <freezey> quintin: easy to use for teachers etc... so which one of these has a GUI
[07:33] <Quintin> freezey: That's why you tell them where to shove the policy, that it's your way or no way, and that this is how it's going to be done!
[07:33] <alecjw> AmaroqWolf, i don't know. sorry
[07:33] <kane77> I try to use skins2 interface of vlc, but it gives me 2 instances of the same window running.. even after I close them they stay in taskbar... what am I doing wrong?
[07:33] <Quintin> freezey: I'm not into GUIs on servers.  GUI for what ??  Admin of the ftpd?
[07:33] <kaoz> the exe file i am trying to run is ran through WINE
[07:33] <AmaroqWolf> alecjw, okay. Thank you for your help.
[07:33] <prad> hi, just wondering if there is any way to have compiz running when you logon ?
[07:33] <kaoz> does wine have a "virtual" hardrive size i need to adjust?
[07:33] <Quintin> prad: #ubuntu-compiz or something might be better
[07:34] <prad> Quintin, thanks
[07:34] <eLLino> :D
[07:34] <freezey> quintin: not for admi n
[07:34] <mindstate> anyone know how i figure out what Socket type my Pentium 4 MOBO is?  sorry for the unrelated question
[07:34] <Quintin> freezey: For what?
[07:34] <Quintin> mindstate: Open the case and look.
[07:34] <kaoz> probably 478
[07:35] <Terminus> either 478 or 775.
[07:35] <Quintin> 775 isn't a socket, it's PGA!
[07:35] <VxJasonxV> Can anyone give me a hand with some wireless issues?  I thought I have it fully configured, but I'm missing something.  I have the drivers (broadcom, fwcutter already used, etc.), I have set the ESSID of my AP, and it sees a mac address.
[07:35] <vox754> mindstate: socket? um, ... internet.
[07:35] <mindstate> Quintin, couldnt find where it might say it at
[07:35] <VxJasonxV> I have the WPA key saved into a configuration file.
[07:35] <Quintin> kaoz: read this please: wine disk full regedit
[07:35] <mindstate> i think its 478
[07:35] <vox754> VxJasonxV: join #ndiswrapper
[07:35] <VxJasonxV> All I'm doing it just: ping -I eth1 google.com
[07:35] <VxJasonxV> I'm not using ndiswrapper
[07:35] <Quintin> kaoz: read this please http://gentoo-wiki.com/HOWTO_Install_and_update_World_Of_Warcraft_with_wine#Not_Enough_Hardrive_Space_error
[07:35] <Terminus> fine. PGA. =P
[07:36] <kaoz> was that suppose to be a link?
[07:36] <Quintin> VxJasonxV: dhclient wlan0 ?
[07:36] <kaoz> oh cool... ill read it now
[07:36] <VxJasonxV> Quintin, eth1
[07:36] <Quintin> mindstate: I mean physically remove the processor and look.
[07:36] <VxJasonxV> it's not an IP problem, I have that
[07:36] <IdleOne> !away > mindstate
[07:36] <mindstate> so sorry lol
[07:37] <maswan> mindstate: the easisest way would be to just read the manual for the motherboard
[07:37] <mindstate> Quintin, there is no processor inside of the board, thats why i wanted to know which type i should put into it
[07:37] <IdleOne> mindstate: just letting you know because the ops will kick/ban/brand you with a scarlette letter :P
[07:37] <vliegje20> i just installed blue soleil with wine, then i started it but it doesnt recognize my bluetooth usb stick do i have to install drivers for it or not?
[07:37] <mindstate> IdleOne, so i've heard lol
[07:37] <freezey> quintin: do you know anything about streamin media?
[07:37] <Quintin> mindstate: well, is it a socket or PGA ?
[07:38] <Xanaron> anybody have any idea as to why this box (XP) is connected but my Ubuntu computer won't connect?
[07:38] <Quintin> freezey: audio yes.  video, not so much
[07:38] <LiENUS> i just installed network-manager-gnome and logged out/loggged back in
[07:38] <AmaroqWolf> vliegje20, there is a #winehq room on this server I believe.
[07:38] <LiENUS> networkmanager applet showed up... but its not  showing wireless networks..
[07:38] <mindstate> Quintin, i think its Socket
[07:38] <LiENUS> im using ndiswrapper and my wireless card is eth1
[07:38] <vox754> Xanaron: wireless issues? click #ndiswrapper
[07:38] <Quintin> mindstate: Is it a bunch of tiny "holes" ??
[07:38] <freezey> quintin: with ubuntu do i have to install some form of a streaming server service? so they can just access the link to the video and it will open up in a desgnated player?>
[07:38] <mindstate> Quintin, yes
[07:38] <Xanaron> it's not wireless, it's all wired
[07:38] <LiENUS> anyone know how to fix this?
[07:38] <Quintin> mindstate: Oh.  You can also just count them.  if it's 500ish or 800ish :D
[07:39] <vox754> LiENUS: join #ndiswrapper
[07:39] <mindstate> Quintin, haha :\ no way
[07:39] <VxJasonxV> vox754, #ndiswrapper handles everything even if we don't use ndiswrapper?
[07:39] <LiENUS> vox754, ndiswrapper is working fine
[07:39] <mindstate> Quintin, i'd lose count at around 80 or 90
[07:39] <mindstate> lol
[07:39] <LiENUS> its not a ndiswrapper issue
[07:39] <vox754> VxJasonxV: I'm in #ndiswrapper giving support to all fellows
[07:39] <IdleOne> mindstate: count 1 row horizontal and one row vertical then multiply hehe
[07:39] <Quintin> mindstate: If it's got holes for pins then it's a socket, thus it is socket 478.  Unless it's an old junker then mebbie it's something else.
[07:40] <freezey> quintin: unsure?
[07:40] <mindstate> Quintin, well i got it direct from IBM a couple years ago
[07:41] <Quintin> freezey: sorry, didn't see question.  If you use samba they can just open the file like it is local
[07:41] <mindstate> Quintin, just been sitting around my house i figure'd i should do something with it
[07:42] <vox754> Xanaron: your problem is weird. All wired connections should work perfectly.
[07:42] <geeksauce> attempt #2 on ubuntu install.  i think i was a little too hasty when i manually edited my partition tables the first time.  can incorect settings there cause kernel panic?
[07:42] <freezey> quintin:  with ubuntu do i have to install some form of a streaming server service? so they can just access the link to the video and it will open up in a desgnated player?
[07:42] <spacebear> what do i use for terminal emulator?
[07:42] <jrib> spacebear: what do you mean?
[07:42] <Xanaron> vox754: that's what I thought, I recently moved and it was working fine until I plugged it in at my new place
[07:42] <agliv5> Greetings :) I'm having problems compiling avidemux, can anyone help?
[07:43] <vox754> Xanaron: "sudo /etc/init.d/networking restart"
[07:43] <Quintin> freezey: Click what kind of link?  What are the client computers running?
[07:43] <jrib> agliv5: pastebin the error
[07:44] <IdleOne> agliv5: sudo aptitude install avidemux wont do it for you?
[07:45] <LiENUS> networkmanager applet showed up... but its not  showing wireless networks.. im using ndiswrapper and my wireless card is named "eth1", anyone know what to do to fix this?
[07:45] <freezey> Quintin: say i have a website and i have a videos linked to numerous websites all over the place... and the person just wnats to watch the commercial video i have on my website... without having to download it.. it will just open up in a designated player whichever one they use to watch videos...

[07:47] <freezey> Quintin: with the windows machine we have right now it acts as a streaming server... we have the files setup on an FTP and they are linked to a website... and then they click on the video and it plays in like windows media player

[07:48] <Wonderful00t> Hello Im having trouble getting vmware server to install on my ubuntu box when Im using my rt kernel.. this is the error i get: The directory of kernel headers (version 2.6.17-10-generic) does not match your
[07:48] <Wonderful00t> running kernel (version <IP_ADDRESS>-rt15-generic).  Even if the module were to
[07:48] <Wonderful00t> compile successfully, it would not load into the running kernel.
[07:48] <hrnt> idleone: well, it did something with my hard disk for something like 15 minutes (resizing a 230gb partition to 200gb), then the "forward button" became available again, i pressed it and now it's just waiting
[07:48] <agliv5> IdleOne, the version in the repositiories is REALLY old...
[07:48] <Marupa> that's not any better, LiENUS
[07:48] <hrnt> idleone: there is this spinning disc thingy spinning around but i don't think it's really doing anything
[07:49] <Bsims> I got amarok to transfer video but it doesn't show up on the menus anywhere and there is no meta-data on the file, is there something I am doing wrong?
[07:49] <Xanaron> vox754: what do I do with the information it just gave me?
[07:49] <AmaroqWolf> alecjw, oops. xD I can't believe I asked the wrong question. I already know where .desktop files for the menus are located. They're in both ~/usr/share/applications and in /usr/share/applications. What I meant to ask is where .directory files are located.
[07:49] <scott__> hi, can anyone tell me what version of the nvidia drivers are in the official ubuntu restricted modules package??
[07:49] <IdleOne> hrnt: be patient takes some time . might take a little while depending on your machine. give it a another 10-15 minutes or do like Quintin said and pray :/
[07:50] <spacebear> where do i download beryl package... apt-get didnt find anything
[07:50] <Wonderful00t> so how to get vmware server to work with a custom kernel?
[07:50] <LiENUS> Marupa, didnt i put you on ignore?
[07:50] <hrnt> idleone: i straced it, it's reading something from descriptor 0 "METAGET partman/text/end_the"
[07:50] <alecjw> AmaroqWolf, never heard of .directory fiels. sorry
[07:50] <hrnt> constantly, it's just looping between read and write
[07:50] <Marupa> How should I know, LiENUS.
[07:50] <exs> guys, the top menu bar I accidently dragged onto the side of the screen, but there's too may icons for me to grab it again. how do i make it go on the top?
[07:50] <IdleOne> hrnt: well then it is reading so let it do its thing for now
[07:50] <Quintin> freezey: Dunno.  Are you sure it is streaming and is not downloaded first on the machines now?  How large are the files?  I would really just use samba.  If this is a local webpage you can make your web urls \\myserver\myfile.ext
[07:50] <Bsims> exs: hrm can ya close one to get a handle so to speak on it
[07:50] <vox754> Xanaron: "ifconfig" gives the list of your network devices, type it.
[07:51] <Quintin> hrnt: You *do* have a recent backup, yesssss?
[07:51] <exs> Bsims:  but I don't want to loose any icons
[07:51] <kaoz> quintin i read that post you gave me and there is no Environment Variable key in my regedit
[07:51] <Xanaron> vox754: I did that, It shows eth0 and lo and some information on them
[07:51] <IdleOne> exs: you have to remove those icons right click and remove then you will have room to move it back
[07:51] <Bsims> exs: ya can add it again once its back up there
[07:51] <valberg> anyone know how the modules in reconstructor works ?
[07:51] <exs> I don't really want to remove the icons
[07:51] <Quintin> kaoz: sux2bu
[07:51] <coobra> ;s
[07:51] <vox754> Xanaron: "eth0" is your wired? What are you using right now?
[07:52] <hrnt> quintin: well, i don't have any critical data if that's what you mean... but if there is a possibility that this ntfs resize thing messes partitions, then there should be a warning in the installer, imho :P
[07:52] <Bsims> hrnt: use rdiff-backup it's great
[07:52] <Quintin> hrnt: There is a warning.

[07:53] <Bsims> I got amarok to transfer video but it doesn't show up on the menus anywhere and there is no meta-data on the file, is there something I am doing wrong?
[07:53] <Xanaron> vox754: also, it won't let me configure eth0, it says I don't have permission

[07:55] <AmaroqWolf> alecjw, I'm viewing the file /etc/xdg/menus/applications.menu in my text editor because I wanna figure out how to manually modify the menus. It appears that there are <Category> tags in this file, and between the category tags is something like, say, for multimedia, text that says AudioVideo. There is a .desktop file that has the line in it: Categories=Application;AudioVideo. I know what I need to know to edit the items in the
[07:55] <AmaroqWolf> menus themselves I suppose, but if I wanted to make new submenus, etc, I'd probably need to know where the .directory things are so new ones could be made if needed. :P I'm gonna try to make a .deb package, so I was trying to learn about that stuff so I could know how to add/remove the shortcuts from the menus. *shuts up now*
[07:55] <lazrpark93> how's it going ubuntu?
[07:55] <AmaroqWolf> meep
[07:55] <jon_> anyone out there got a psp_
[07:55] <IdleOne> !anyone
[07:55] <ubotu> A large amount of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..."  Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out?
[07:56] <Bsims> I know I can transfer videos to my ipod but it doesn't show up in any of the video or song menus any ideas
[07:56] <alecjw> AmaroqWolf, i suppose you can have al ook at a pacakge which adds a menu item
[07:56] <IdleOne> Bsims: shot in the dark but is there a tmp folder on the ipod? I dont know I dont have an ipod Im poor :(
[07:57] <jon_> I need help with my psp... trying to run devhook....
[07:57] <IdleOne> jon #psp maybe
[07:57] <Bsims> IdleOne: Heh nope, but it doesn't show on the menus that its here
[07:57] <jon_> thanx
[07:58] <AmaroqWolf> alecjw, I did. :P I spose I know enough about it. The .directory thing is only for if I wanted to add submenus I think. Perhaps I can look at wine's package, I think that adds a submenu.
[07:58] <lazrpark93> How do you change your window theme in Ubuntu to something cool other than the standard ones?
[07:58] <IdleOne> Bsims: I have no idea sorry

[07:59] <craigbass1976> Any bash scripters in here?
[08:00] <Bsims> IdleOne: thanks anyway
[08:00] <Bsims> craigbass1976: I have done some why
[08:00] <IdleOne> Quintin: how does fra set his locale to italian?
[08:00] <craigbass1976> Having trouble with one
[08:00] <crazy_penguin> Hi all!
[08:00] <swimmerino88> hello!how can I install the italina language pack for xubuntu?because I have it in english!
[08:01] <AmaroqWolf> alecjw, when you install a program under wine, most of the time it adds a menu item to Applications > Wine > Programs. I wonder if the Programs submenu item gets added when a program is installed, or when wine is installed.
[08:01] <SecrethX> how can I enlarge my /? (home is on another partition) I just found out I have 40G of unallocated space and I want to enlarge my /, im on the live cd backing up /
[08:02] <alecjw> AmaroqWolf, i have wine, but no submenu. it adds the shortcuts to the desktop.
[08:02] <craigbass1976> Bsims, http://rafb.net/p/7ZhpU583.html  $FITEMID ends up with a space or something in front of it, and I get no result
[08:02] <AmaroqWolf> alecjw, yours acts differently than mine does. I wonder which is the normal behavior.
[08:03] <AmaroqWolf> Er, wait. alecjw, I think mine does both.

[08:05] <craigbass1976> Bsims, I just found out (and I wondered about something liek this) that I was getting a header as part of the $FITEMID, so mysql, in the last query, was looking for space $variable...
[08:06] <|thunder> hey all, is it possible to run a bash command from xchat? like. could I "uname -r and get output in xchat ?
[08:06] <Bsims> cool, glad ya figured it out
[08:06] <yommb> man apt-get
[08:06] <mindstate> SecrethX, gparted can do that
[08:06] <IdleOne> |thunder: try it
[08:06] <IdleOne> uname -r
[08:06] <IdleOne> lol nope
[08:07] <SecrethX> mindstate: yea I thought someone might say that, but I have no idea how..
[08:07] <Occasus> bo
[08:07] <Occasus> o
[08:07] <AmaroqWolf> SecrethX, I think there is a disk utility that allows you to change the size of partitions. I don't remember the name. You have the right idea about backing up though. It's reccomended to back stuff up before you go messing with partitions.
[08:07] <IdleOne> |thunder: /exec uname -r
[08:07] <IdleOne> |thunder: /exec uname -a
[08:08] <mindstate> SecrethX, i had to resize my drives to make room for Linux and Swap so i know u can i think u right click on the drive u want to extend
[08:08] <mindstate> sorry :)
[08:08] <SecrethX> mindstate: I have it like this, hda1 is my home, hda2 is / and hda3 is swap
[08:09] <craigbass1976> Bsims, Too bad it took me all morning.  This script is going to be bad enough without getting tripped up over something so trivial...
[08:09] <mindstate> SecrethX, thats how mine is
[08:09] <Bsims> craigbass1976: Heh its always the little things
[08:09] <mindstate> SecrethX, where is the unallocated space
[08:09] <SecrethX> mindstate: after hda3
[08:10] <mindstate> SecrethX, hold on
[08:10] <AmaroqWolf> Oh my, I only have two partitions. Partition 1, and Swap Partition.
[08:10] <Slasher> hey
[08:10] <SecrethX> mindstate: of course :-
[08:11] <kane77> hindley, is there any program (script) that would scan ftp for new things? (or create database of stuff that's on it)
[08:11] <Slasher> anyone around whos good with wireless?
[08:11] <AmaroqWolf> SecrethX, how did you find out you have unallocated space?
[08:12] <SecrethX> AmaroqWolf: I remembered it.. I forgot about the unallocated space when I was installing ;O
[08:12] <yellow> Slasher, just ask, if there's someone who knows, they'll answer
[08:13] <Slasher> kk
[08:13] <Slasher> ty
[08:13] <AmaroqWolf> *chuckles* SecrethX, I wonder if there's a way to check with some utility or something.
[08:14] <SecrethX> AmaroqWolf: you can check it with gparted
[08:14] <fil_> et merc avi :(
[08:14] <Slasher> im messing about with ndiswrapper at the minute, just installed ubuntu (used to use winblows but trying so step away from microsoft as vista totally sucks and i dont fancy sticking to xp either), i have used ndiswrapper before on SuSE, however I got some ubuntu cd's here so i installed that. the problem is at the moment, i was wondering if there is something to scan for wireless networks like in suse
[08:15] <AmaroqWolf> SecrethX, hmm. The command gparted in my terminal didn't do anything.
[08:15] <Quintin> Slasher: iwconfig wlan0 scan ?
[08:15] <Slasher> wlan0 isn't listed in iwconfig for some reason :|
[08:15] <SecrethX> AmaroqWolf: sudo apt-get install gparted
[08:15] <SecrethX> and then do it again
[08:15] <cables> Slasher, Wifi-Radar and network-manager work, but I think I read something about them not working with ndiswrapper
[08:15] <Marco_> What is the best dvd player ?
[08:15] <Slasher> darn
[08:16] <cables> Marco_, they're all pretty good. I've had problems with VLC missing like 5 seconds when it doesn't spin up the disk in time though...
[08:16] <jzl> hi mates, is it possible to use ntfs-3g to read/write to a mounted share (that is physically located in a windows2k3 file server)?
[08:16] <greg_> hello everyone....i am fairly new to ubuntu and i had installed it  on my system with out a duel boot of windows xp.....now i had recently got a cell phone which requires me to download a driver which is in windows format any suggestions on what i can do to open that file???
[08:16] <cables> jzl, if it's shared, it shouldn't matter what FS it is.
[08:17] <AmaroqWolf> SecrethX, thank you. *chuckles* I find that error message funny, for when you try to run it without root.
[08:17] <cables> greg_, if the driver is in Windows format, you can't use it with linux.
[08:17] <jzl> cables.. thanks :)
[08:17] <SecrethX> AmaroqWolf: haha, yes
[08:17] <bfdhud_> I have a simple shell question if anyone can help
[08:17] <cables> greg_, you need Windows to use a Windows driver
[08:17] <cables> !ask | bfdhud_
[08:17] <ubotu> bfdhud_: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[08:17] <dondanielo> !dvd
[08:17] <ubotu> For playing DVD, see http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/desktopguide/C/video.html - "libdvdcss2" can be found at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/SeveasPackages
[08:18] <jzl> cables, yeah.. but I cant write to the directory.
[08:18] <Marco_> cables, sometimes I copy some movies to the hard disk. Is there a dvd player that can play movies splited in several files ? like cyberlink power dvd
[08:18] <cables> jzl, that's a matter of permissions, not filesystem. You don't have permission, then.
[08:19] <agliv5> I'm trying to compile avidemux using the following guide: "http://www.avidemux.org/admWiki/index.php?title=Compiling_Avidemux" and make -f Makefile.dist is returning 2 errors that I don't understand... could someone please look into this?  http://paste.uni.cc/13014
[08:19] <cables> Marco_, not sure... you mean a video_ts folder or something? Or VOB files? VLC can play decrypted VOBs.
[08:19] <cables> jzl, if it's shared across the network, a filesystem driver can't help you.
[08:19] <AmaroqWolf> SecrethX, hmm. I do have three partitions. /dev/hda1, /dev/hda2, and dev/hda5. Hm... 5 is under 2. Are they the same thing?
[08:19] <jzl> cables, that makes sense. :doh:
[08:20] <jzl> I mounted the share via smbfs
[08:20] <jzl> I guess :\
[08:20] <cables> jzl, just make sure the server is set up to allow access from your computer.
[08:20] <SecrethX> AmaroqWolf: what filesystems?
[08:20] <AmaroqWolf> ext3, extended, and linux-swap
[08:20] <Marco_> cables, yes. I try with Kaffeine but, when it jumps to the next file I have to select my language again
[08:20] <yommb> !gdeb

[08:20] <olopez> hi , are there navit iptables layer7 support or any ubuntu version? or i need recompile the kernel ?
[08:20] <domi> or is this in english?
[08:20] <cables> Marco_, not sure...

[08:20] <ubotu> gdebi: Simple tool to install deb files. In component main, is optional. Version 0.1.6ubuntu1 (edgy), package size 31 kB, installed size 680 kB
[08:20] <domi> it is (:
[08:21] <Marco_> cables, thanks anyway
[08:21] <SecrethX> swap and ext3 are different AmaroqWolf
[08:21] <Lunar_Lamp> Is it possible to get Listen (also Listen, Just Listen) to play m4a/aac files? I can play them in other programs without issue, but want to play them in listen.
[08:21] <domi> can anyone help me? i wanted to know hot the amarok thing is called which generates the playlist from some songs... i forget -.-
[08:21] <AmaroqWolf> The one with linux-swap is 5, and it's under 2, which is extended. And they're the same size.
[08:21] <AmaroqWolf> ext3 is by itself.
[08:22] <NeoMatrixJR24> ok, I know I'm not supposed to ask about asking a question, but it's a long question...anyone mind if I ask a multi-line question in here?
[08:22] <cables> domi, see #amarok
[08:22] <domi> thx... how can i switch the chan -.- i forget too -.-
[08:22] <domi> didnt hat linux for a while
[08:22] <cables> domi, /join #amarok
[08:22] <domi> thx -.-
[08:22] <AmaroqWolf> lol, nice namd XD
[08:22] <AmaroqWolf> *name
[08:22] <XD> :P
[08:22] <XD> ty
[08:23] <AmaroqWolf> I use that emoticon so much.
[08:23] <SecrethX> AmaroqWolf: doesnt matter then, the extended holds the swap so you basicly have one big partition and one swap (someone correct me if Im wrong)
[08:24] <AmaroqWolf> SecrethX, yes, it appears to hold the swap. Is it okay that I don't have seperate partitions for home and /?
[08:24] <NeoMatrixJR24> Well...I'm going to take that as a yes anyways..... Sorry this is so long, but I wanted to be descriptive
[08:24] <domi> lol there is noone -.-
[08:24] <NeoMatrixJR24> I am having a hardware problem with Edgy.... I am using 2 Promise Ultra66 IDE controllers (2 ports, 4 drives per card) to run 3 hard drives (boot drive is on onboard ide).  All 3 drives are set as the master of one of the ports, 1 card contains 1 drive (currently the first, hde - master IDE1) and one card contains 2 drives (card 2 master on ide 1 and 2, hdi, hdk). One of my drives on the...
[08:24] <NeoMatrixJR24> ...card with 2 HD's always has a problem with DMA/IRQ. (See dmesg: http://rafb.net/p/4UBWR633.html) When I try and transfer large files the drive times out and won't work right.  You can imagine the problem with this since I'm trying to create a RAID 5 with said drives (not the boot drive, just the 3 on the Ultra66 cards).  Does anyone have any thoughts?
[08:24] <Lunar_Lamp> NeoMatrixJR24, it might be an idea to use pastebin for the question, and put a brief topic/subject along with pasting the url in here.
[08:24] <NeoMatrixJR24> too late......
[08:24] <dromer> hi, what program lets me see all active users on the computer again?
[08:24] <dromer> I forgot :#
[08:24] <cables> Is there any way to configure network-manager to save the network keys without Keyring? I don't like having to put my password in a second time after I log on.
[08:25] <SecrethX> AmaroqWolf: well, its better if home and / are on different partitions, for like a crash you only need to overwrite / and so home gets saved but it isnt really needed
[08:26] <AmaroqWolf> SecrethX: ah, okay. I suppose that is useful, but oh well. It's too late now.
[08:26] <jzl> cables, I have full rights to the directory. (im term served into the windows server now) yet I am still getting "You do not have permissions to write to this folder." when trying to throw a simple file in it.
[08:27] <cables> jzl, is it password protected?
[08:27] <jzl> yes
[08:27] <jzl> and I have it set in the fstab
[08:27] <orangey> hey all.
[08:27] <cables> jzl, try remounting it (sudo mount -a)
[08:27] <orangey> anybody know where the evolution IRC channel is?
[08:27] <jzl> 10-4
[08:28] <NeoMatrixJR24> Same IRQ/DMA question on nopaste for all that non-autoscroll goodness: http://rafb.net/p/yFpLgX72.html
[08:28] <cables> Another network manager question: is there any way to get my computer to connect to my wireless network BEFORE I log on? I have a network share that is auto-mounted in fstab, and it would be nice if that was mounted before I logged in.
[08:28] <Redhammer_the_Ol> hi anybody know how I can ensure that the right click menu "send to" function allows me to use thunderbird ?
[08:28] <orangey> I am having an evo problem.. my emails with attachments from ONE of my servers show up as text instead of attachments. In dapper, this was solved by specifying that the server was imap1 or what not, but that option is not there anymore
[08:28] <Slasher> aargh opera wont install :(
[08:29] <AmaroqWolf> NeoMatrixJR24, if you wanted to, you could use pastebin. It can be set to delete the stuff you put in it after a certain amount of time, which is useful so your question/pasted stuff doesn't sit around and take up space after your question has been resolved.
[08:30] <AmaroqWolf> Rather than pasting your problem in an html page.
[08:30] <cables> AmaroqWolf, it looks like he's using a pastebin to me...
[08:30] <NeoMatrixJR24> AmaroqWolf: eh...the page I use is "nopaste" I think it works the same way.
[08:31] <AmaroqWolf> NeoMatrixJR24, oh. Okay. xD The extention was .html, so I assumed you uploaded an html file somewhere.
[08:32] <NeoMatrixJR24> AmaroqWolf: no...I think it just generates an HTML file.  Don't know how he does it, but I know they disappear later.
[08:32] <jzl> cables, same thing.  HMMMMM
[08:32] <guddy> anyone here?
[08:33] <dondanielo> yep
[08:33] <guddy> great
[08:33] <cables> guddy, tons of us...
[08:33] <HymnToLife> yes
[08:33] <guddy> i'm kinda new to the whole linux thing
[08:33] <cables> jzl, this may sound stupid, but make sure the password's right in fstab. If you still can't get it working, try removing the password protection and test it to see if you can change it when it's not password protected.
[08:33] <NeoMatrixJR24> anyways...anyone have any thoughts to the question itself?
[08:33] <paiiiiii> what was name of the mp3 player that was like xmms but very nice
[08:33] <paiiiiii> hmm
[08:33] <Heroin> i need a C++ compiler version 4.0.3 i think ;X like i have GCC and GCC-BASE but it doesnt compile C++
[08:33] <paiiiiii> a hard name...
[08:34] <dondanielo> paiiiiii : maybe bmpx?
[08:34] <Lunar_Lamp> Heroin, you need a different compiler I think.
[08:34] <dondanielo> beep media player
[08:34] <mindstate> beep
[08:34] <HymnToLife> Heartsbane, install build-essential
[08:34] <paiiiiii> dondanielo: no
[08:34] <guddy> can I ask you guys something? I don't want to interrupt...
[08:34] <cables> guddy, sure
[08:35] <AmaroqWolf> NeoMatrixJR24, perhaps whatever server side scripting language he uses, simply wrote your question to a .html file, and some program on his server just deletes it after a certain amount of time. I know php, so I figure it can be done with that. Though I don't know how to make it dissapear after a certain time. Or .html files can be set up to be parsed by php. As for the question itself, I have no idea. *chuckles*
[08:35] <guddy> I was using the vista beta, but it was too heavy on my system... I have two hard drives... I can't seem to access the second one, used previously in windows (NTFS)
[08:35] <cables> guddy, you're _supposed_ to interrupt
[08:35] <SteveC_> Hi. I'd like to do some debugging of my USB, what debug kernel package should I install?
[08:35] <jzl> cables, dont sound stupid at all
[08:35] <cables> jzl, ok
[08:35] <cables> :)
[08:35] <HymnToLife> ubotu, tell ntfs about ubotu | ubotu, see the private message from ubotu.
[08:35] <guddy> just being polite
[08:35] <HymnToLife> oops
[08:35] <Heroin> Lunar_Lamp like what? iam really confused i need to compile a C++ thing and i need a C++ compiler :P
[08:35] <HymnToLife> my scrit messed up :p
[08:35] <recon> Does anybody know where I should put a major mode I downloaded for emacs?
[08:35] <Lunar_Lamp> Heroin, yeah, give me a minute, I;m just checking. I don#'t use C++ much.
[08:36] <guddy> the online help says something about SYSTEM - ADMINISTRATION - DISKS... I cant find it
[08:36] <magda> hola}
[08:36] <recon> Heroin: have you tried gcc?
[08:36] <cables> guddy, you're using Ubuntu?
[08:36] <guddy> yes... ubuntu
[08:36] <magda> alguien que hable espaol
[08:36] <Lunar_Lamp> Heroin, g++!
[08:36] <ismail> good day all
[08:36] <recon> magda: /join #ubuntu-es
[08:36] <cables> guddy, i think they meant to do that in the livecd during the installer.
[08:36] <guddy> latest version
[08:36] <Heroin> Lunar_Lamp Got it.. apt-get gave me a 4.0 version :D
[08:36] <guddy> oh... how can i do that in the installed OS, then?
[08:37] <cables> guddy, hold on
[08:37] <Lunar_Lamp> Heroin, hmm, you need a later version?
[08:37] <ismail> i have a question has anyone been able to install ubuntu on a core duo notebook?
[08:37] <dondanielo> guddy : 6.10 ?
[08:37] <guddy> I mean, get access to the second (backup... all images, music, work, etc.) drive
[08:37] <HymnToLife> ubotu, tell guddy about ntfs | ntfs, see the private message from ubotu.
[08:37] <jzl> cables, "You do not have permissions to write to this folder."
[08:37] <HymnToLife> better like this :p

[08:37] <jzl> cables, is it worth mentioning that it is NTFS

[08:38] <ndr> ciao
[08:38] <ismail> i have a question has anyone been able to install ubuntu on a core duo notebook?
[08:38] <ndr> italiani^
[08:38] <ndr> ?
[08:39] <jzl> cables, I used //servername/sharename /mountdirectory smbfs username=windowsusername,password=windowspassword 0 0
[08:39] <cables> guddy, look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MountingWindowsPartitions?action=show&redirect=NTFSReadWrite and https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MountNtfsOnBoot?highlight=%28ntfs%29
[08:39] <Orbitize> Hello. How do i configure my WLAN card to connect to a network with AES-TKIP encryption?
[08:39] <aalhamad> how can i get the desktop of Plastic window decorations similar to vista?
[08:40] <paiiiiii> someone told me a really great mp3 player yesterday with a odd name, can somebody remember a mp3-player with a strange name? :)
[08:40] <cables> jzl, that may be your problem... Samba shares by default do  not have passwords. If your samba share does, it's probably set differently than your Windows password
[08:40] <dondanielo> paiiiiiii : beep media player?
[08:40] <ismail> aalhamad. what gui are u using?..gnome orkde?
[08:40] <Zaggynl> %Q#%)98

[08:40] <olopez> hi , are there navit iptables layer7 support or any ubuntu version? or i need recompile the kernel ?
[08:41] <olopez> native
[08:41] <ismail> hmmm cant really in gnome. though u canuse beryl to get some of the effects
[08:41] <jzl> cables, the password is the same
[08:41] <ismail> there are alot of themes for kkde
[08:41] <cables> jzl, try leaving the username blank
[08:41] <jzl> cables, that is what I set in the fstab
[08:42] <cables> jzl, can you access it when you go to Places>Network Servers?
[08:42] <stjepan> anyone wants to try my new terminal app?
[08:42] <AmaroqWolf> My video card isn't as fast as it used to be when I had windows. Two games that I try to play under wine go much slower than I remember. It's like my card either can't handle it anymore, or it's not being used to it's full potential. The card is an IBM i810 series... so I don't think either nvidia or ati drivers will help it any. I eventually succumbed to my friend's suggestion that I use easyubuntu, but it didn't help at all.
[08:42] <aalhamad> ismail, gnome
[08:43] <dondanielo> AmaroqWolf : try windows, if you expect something like windows! ;)
[08:43] <ismail> aalhamad, there are a few themes in beryl that can give u the effects of vusta. but really the best vista them is in kde
[08:43] <redbox> anyone know where I can find ubuntu packages for the latest mondorescue ?
[08:43] <paiiiiii> someone told me a really great mp3 player yesterday with a odd name, can somebody remember a mp3-player with a strange name?? :)
[08:43] <jzl> cables, DUDE.. I can write to it that way!
[08:43] <jzl> using the smb://
[08:44] <cables> jzl, does it ask for your password when you do that?
[08:44] <Tw1stStorm>
[08:44] <jzl> yeah
[08:44] <ismail> paiiiiii.amaro?
[08:44] <jzl> cables, and the workgroup
[08:44] <ismail> amarok
[08:44] <paiiiiii> ismail: hmm, no
[08:44] <Tw1stStorm>       ?
[08:44] <Tw1stStorm>       ?

[08:44] <bhearsum> i'm trying to use 'root=/dev/hda4' as a kernel option. i'm getting told that it cannot be resolved....how do i re-enable this? i know ubuntu likes to use UUIDs but that's not going to work for me
[08:44] <cables> ompaul, i don't think that was any language...
[08:44] <Tw1stStorm> do you speak russian ?
[08:44] <Tw1stStorm> do you speak russian ?
[08:45] <Kajin> I've installed VMWare Workstation this morning on Ubuntu Edgy, but when I run Windows XP in it I only get a black screen. On the GUI installer that is, I could see the text installer (where you do the partitioning and everything) just fine.
[08:45] <Tw1stStorm> do you speak russian ?

[08:45] <AmaroqWolf> lol dondanielo, I would much rather get it working fully on ubuntu than use windows. I have found out though, that it can't do direct draw unless it's set to 16 bit color. And the card only supports 24 bit color.
[08:45] <Zaggynl> ...
[08:45] <Tw1stStorm> !ru
[08:45] <Zaggynl> now just gedit doesn't start

In the network setting it shows it as disabled but when i enable it get a green check then goes back to the red x. I have it congfiged for my network but just wont enable
[08:47] <aalhamad> ok thanks

[08:47] <ismail> paiiiiii, xmms.....noatm.....eythembox
[08:47] <aalhamad> ismail i also can upgrade to Ubuntu 7.04 right?
[08:47] <cables> jzl, i don't really know... try reinstalling smbfs (sudo aptitude reinstall smbfs) and rebooting the computer. If that doesn't work, smack the computers or the equipment connecting them.
[08:47] <paiiiiii> ismail: no :(
[08:47] <cables> aalhamad, 7.04 is in Alpha.
[08:47] <paiiiiii> ismail: something with a..... in the beginning
[08:48] <ompaul> ubotu tell r3set about nickspam
[08:48] <aalhamad> ok i c thanks :)
[08:48] <jzl> cables, will a good pimp slap work?

[08:48] <paiiiiii> thanks anyway
[08:48] <ismail> aalhamad, yeah u can... just follow the instruction in the site
[08:48] <AmaroqWolf> When I looked up my card on IBM's site, they listed it as an i815. But my xorg.conf has it as i810.  Not pretty.   Were is the pppoe config option ?
[08:49] <cables> paiiiiii, that's an audio editor.
[08:49] <paiiiiii> oh
[08:49] <cables> paiiiiii, a2mp3?

[08:50] <paiiiiii> very very likly to xmms
[08:50] <DrZeus_> hi all.  Anyone had success installing windows with vmware server?  Because i have errors in the part of formatting the virtual hard drive
[08:50] <core123> Hi, I installed xgl on my dapper with berly, but every time when I start berly-manager the windows still kepps white (when I move my mouse to the right top corner there appear the windows I have opend in white, too)
[08:50] <core123> whats wrong ?
[08:50] <ompaul> ^Ocean^, just use System Administration Networking
[08:50] <ismail> the best player iv used is amarok
[08:50] <cables> core123, xgl and beryl are beta products. Probably a bug.
[08:50] <NeoMatrixJR24> ok, how about this question.  I also have edgy on a Compaq Presario X1000 laptop.  Anyone know of a good way to get the external VGA to work (hopefully including the fn f5 (i think f5) to switch monitors?
[08:50] <paiiiiii> Is it possible to remove all packages that are begin used by "audacity" without removing any packages that might be used by other apps in the system?
[08:50] <ismail> has all the features u need in a player
[08:50] <dondanielo> core123 : installed nvidia/ati/intel drivers?
[08:50] <Kajin> I've installed VMWare Workstation this morning on Ubuntu Edgy, but when I run Windows XP in it I only get a black screen. On the GUI installer that is, I could see the text installer (where you do the partitioning and everything) just fine.
[08:51] <core123> dondanielo, yes, nvidia driver is installed
[08:51] <ompaul> core123, go to #ubuntu-beryl
[08:51] <cables> paiiiiii, if you install and remove via Aptitude, it'll do that automatically.
[08:51] <paiiiiii> "apt-get install audacity" i did
[08:51] <bonesaw> anyone know of any sites outlining steps to setup ubuntu as a webserver? new to linux, looking for info on apache2 and vsftp
[08:51] <atomiku`irssi> looks like im getting a ddos, linux is taking it well... still up... just... how do I change my MAC address?
[08:52] <ismail> Kajin. have u tried virtual box?
[08:52] <cables> paiiiiii, aptitude is better than apt-get... it keeps track of what Audacity uses. Try "sudo aptitude remove audacity" to remove it and anything it installed. If it's already been removed, install it first with "sudo aptitude install audacity"
[08:52] <noodles12> When trying to burn a cd in edgy, i keep getting I/O errors with serpentine, and other errors with k3b and brasero =/
[08:52] <Kajin> ismail: Virtual box?
[08:52] <Heroin> atomiku`irssi if your getting DDOS'ed set up some ip filters
[08:52] <Kajin> ismail: Is that an alternative to VMWare?
[08:52] <ismail> yup
[08:52] <atomiku`irssi> Heroin: how?
[08:52] <Memener> also when i type dmesg | tail i get this error 5 times 17181489.392000 bcm43xx: Error: Mictocode "bcm43xx_microcode5.fw" not available or load fail. but the last 6 numbers after the . (dot) in that frist part change
[08:52] <Teodros> toshiba tecra s3: the internal bluetooth device does it work with it's own driver?
[08:52] <Zaggynl> I can't start gedit with 'sudo gedit' or 'gksudo gedit' anymore, the terminal gives some errors about 'Authentication Rejected' and gives me no gedit
[08:53] <Kajin> ismail: Alright, I'll check it out.
[08:53] <ismail> Kajin, search for it in the community group in ubuntu
[08:53] <paiiiiii> cables: it won't destroy other packages then?
[08:53] <cables> Zaggynyl, can you do anything else with sudo?
[08:53] <atomiku`irssi> quick
[08:53] <Kajin> ismail: The community group?
[08:53] <NeoMatrixJR24> bonesaw: what version of ubuntu are you using?

[08:54] <Mys_Teri> Hello everyone.
[08:54] <ismail> Kajin, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VirtualBox
[08:54] <cables> paiiiiii, Aptitude will remove everything that isn't used any more by any program. I'm not sure if it works if you haven't installed it with aptitude, though... but give it a try
[08:54] <Kajin> ismail: Awesome, thank you!
[08:54] <Jowi> Zaggynl, if you type "groups" in the terminal do you see "admin" there?
[08:54] <Kreker> hello how can i start to learn linux?

[08:56] <Kreker> i wanna know somfin to know a lil' what linux to install what are the base commands and etc...
[08:56] <Mys_Teri> I'm new to Ubuntu and Linux.  I need help with my sound card.  Only one distro I used when playing around was able to find it and it searched alsa then I believe it found it in legacy.  I have an es1868 or es1869. Would downloading the alsa modules help?
[08:56] <Jowi> cables, (too late) :)
[08:56] <yellow> atomiku`irssi, firestarter ?

[08:57] <ompaul> arrr
[08:57] <atomiku`irssi> brb th en
[08:57] <cables> Kreker, having trouble finding a tutorial I bookmarked... if you have any questions about linux, ask them here and I'm sure someone will be able to answer them.
[08:58] <NeoMatrixJR24> Bonesaw: no prob, I was there too...still kinda am.  Are you familiar with Synaptic Package Manager and/or apt-get?
[08:58] <Memener> im tring to use a linksys WPC54g
[08:58] <AmaroqWolf> Hmm, quick CUPS question. I have a lexmark z611 printer, and I installed the z600 series driver. The printer is hooked up to my windows machine, however. I seemed to be able to set everything up okay, but when I try to print anything to it, the print job sits in the que for a little while and then cancles. What might I be doing wrong?
[08:58] <Memener> its a pcimca card
[08:59] <Kreker> ol
[08:59] <Kreker> *ok
[08:59] <Jowi> Zaggynl, better now?
[08:59] <Zaggynl> Jowi, starting gedit through 'sudo nautilus', but gives nothing back
[08:59] <Kreker> what is the benfites of the linux versions?
[08:59] <bonesaw> NeoMatrixJR24 yeah, thats what i used to grab apache and vsftp, but now i want to ftp over web content and i dont know how to tell vsftp the directory to drop stuff in
[08:59] <DrZeus_> aahhh, has someone used vmware server for installing wind0ws??
[08:59] <Zaggynl> Jowi, (with edit file)
[08:59] <cables> Kreker, stability, openness, customizability,
[09:00] <cables> Memener, can you do this command for me? "lspci | grep Network
[09:00] <Teodros> do i really need to backup my data to install ubuntu for a dual boot with xp sp2?
[09:00] <Belboz99> Hey all, I'm getting this error when using the Master Kernel Thread:
[09:00] <Belboz99> make: *** No rule to make target `oldconfig'.  Stop.
[09:00] <Jowi> Zaggynl, why do you use nautilus with sudo? try in a terminal "gksu gedit" that work?
[09:00] <Memener> k 1 sec
[09:00] <ismail> DrZeus. alot of ppl used vm ware to install it
[09:00] <Zaggynl> Jowi, I did before (editing files in my apache dir) and it worked fine
[09:00] <boredandblogging> whats with with the nickspam?
[09:00] <Jowi> Zaggynl, never a good idea to use nautilus with sudo. it messes things up.
[09:00] <cables> Memener, never mind... use this: "lspci | grep Broadcom"
[09:00] <AmaroqWolf> Er, I meant to say my computer is networked to my windows computer, but I can't print to the printer even though I have it shared over the network. The print job sits there for a while and then dissapears.
[09:00] <Zaggynl> Jowi, anyway, 'gksu gedit' gives me: '(gedit:13357): GnomeUI-WARNING **: While connecting to session manager:
[09:00] <Zaggynl> Authentication Rejected, reason : None of the authentication protocols specified are supported and host-based authentication failed.'
[09:00] <NeoMatrixJR24> bonesaw: I'm afraid I'm not too familiar with vsftp, (also...make sure you got apache2 not apache).  have you tried "man vsftp" in the console?  or google "vsftp config" and see if you can find where the config file should be
[09:01] <ompaul> changing your nick in a channel with 1k+ users ---

[09:01] <cables> Kreker, there are a lot of command used a lot... cp, ls, cd, mv, rm, rmdir, sudo, less, grep, tee...
