[00:00] <joshjtl> are there any nice "tours"  of Ubuntu for windows users? I'd like to have something for my parents to flip through to get a little more aquainted with Ubuntu, and how to do their normal Windows in Ubuntu
[00:00] <tyrosine2> yeah joshjtl, check the windows->ubuntu transition page on the ubuntu docs website
[00:00] <fearful> joshjtl: Best way to do that is show them Ubuntu's power yourself, in my opinion.
[00:01] <filsuf> anybody runs 8.10 in Asus EEE 1000H?
[00:01] <joshjtl> tyrosine2: thanks
[00:01] <wubrgamer> 6OShey everyone

[00:02] <joshjtl> fearful: yeah I will but I would still like something there for them they can go back to whenever they want, some people prefer to learn on their own instead of having to go and ask someone if they can't figure something out.
[00:02] <rraj_be> hello every one . ..Good morning + Wishes for a Great Day Ahead of you
[00:02] <Fiftyone> Eeepc 1000h here
[00:02] <filsuf> which one do you use Fiftyone ? the generic download CD or from Asus?
[00:02] <wubrgamer> i'm from woodbridge
[00:02] <filsuf> nice ... I'm jealous Fiftyone ;)
[00:02] <filsuf> I'll go buy one tomorrow ... if I'm not that lazy to go to BestBuy

[00:02] <fearful> joshjtl: Oh I see
[00:03] <Myrtti> rraj_be: and what does that link have to do with Ubuntu?
[00:03] <Fiftyone> filsuf i used the generic but i ended up using the eee specific kernel to fix some bugs with the eee
[00:03] <brodie_> hi all
[00:04] <Necrogamemaster> Can linux use C++, or is there a specific C++ package?
[00:04] <rraj_be> oh . .nothing Myrtti  . .please dont think as i am spaming . .its my college cultural feast site . . .just i have given here to share a cool site
[00:04] <filsuf> oh ... it sounds steep Fiftyone
[00:04] <rraj_be> thats all
[00:04] <rraj_be> sorry if i am wrong
[00:04] <Myrtti> rraj_be: in future, use #ubuntu-offtopic
[00:04] <filsuf> soonoh, the generic kernel doesnt work just like that?
[00:04] <rraj_be> sure and thanks a lot Myrtti
[00:04] <Fiftyone> filsuf its amazing worth every penny... Kernel replacement is nothing took a few min
[00:04] <filsuf> did you try to install the drivers yourself when you used the generic ISO Fiftyone ?
[00:05] <filsuf> it's so cheap Fiftyone ... only 329
[00:05] <Caesi> hi all.. how can I disable Tomboy notes from opening at startup? I've looked at startup programmes, but it's not in there
[00:05] <filsuf> plus 1GB RAM ... total less than 400
[00:05] <filsuf> so I thought, why not
[00:05] <Fiftyone> Flisuf i suggest using easy peasy the eeepc version of ubuntu
[00:05] <filsuf> I need a new laptop anyway
[00:05] <tyrosine2> Caesi: try launching msconfig.exe
[00:05] <imri303> I have about three netbook class machines I am playing with at work :)
[00:05] <Caesi> ?
[00:05] <Caesi> Ubuntu? :)
[00:05] <Caesi> sorry
[00:05] <tyrosine2> it's a joke
[00:05] <Fiftyone> Yea man its an awesome machine even better with ubun2
[00:06] <filsuf> what version is that Fiftyone ?
[00:06] <Caesi> :D
[00:06] <imri303> acer, lenovo, and the dell mini9 :)
[00:06] <filsuf> I will just dual-boot Fiftyone ...
[00:06] <Fiftyone> 8.10
[00:06] <filsuf> maybe I'll put the light Windows FLP in there
[00:06] <Myrtti> tyrosine2: ...
[00:06] <filsuf> did you try any other distro in it Fiftyone ?
[00:06] <tyrosine2> I just got an "averatec n1000" which is pretty much a repackaged (10.2'') MSI Wind.  It was 314$ at Circuit Shitty's going out of business sale
[00:07] <tyrosine2> it runs ubuntu well.  3d accel, wireless, etc etc

[00:11] <thedude420> OK guys I have a question and problem I really need help with. The problem is with my wireless card, Intel PRO/Wireless 3945. It will pick up a lot of wireless networks but not mine. I have a linksys WRT160N router. The router is set to send all types (b/g/n). Second does anybody have a recommendion for a good torrent client. I am used to using utorrent on my mac and in xp. I need something that can do things like select only certi

Now, during boot time, the progress bar stops halfway for about 5 mins before it resumes rebooting.. What could be the problem? This also happened to me when I used intrepid. I am now using hardy...
[00:11] <fo> tyrosine2, just used mplayer dvd://1
[00:11] <filsuf> make it easier Fiftyone ... copy that to an external HD
[00:11] <DIFH-iceroot> cizorty: why you need ipv6 in an irc-client?
[00:11] <fo> it opens up a window where the video should be playing but its just black
[00:11] <filsuf> if your mac can go online and the file is not that huge .... use skype!
[00:12] <filsuf> that's what I normally do

[00:13] <Fiftyone> Yes i read it fine but some files are restricted because of the premission problem
[00:13] <filsuf> Kiwi is kinda retarded I heard
[00:13] <adred> any help pls...
[00:13] <fearful> Anyone know why when I unplug the computer from AC power the lightness doesn't dim, but when I plug it back in it does dim on xfce and on gnome works fine
[00:14] <filsuf> then change the permission Fiftyone ... if you cant change it ... rename it

[00:14] <e3co> A vulnerability in Linksys WRT160N, which can be exploited by malicious people to conduct cross-site scripting attacks.
[00:14] <e3co> Input passed to the "action" parameter in apply.cgi is not properly sanitised before being returned to the administrator. This can be exploited to execute arbitrary HTML and script code in an administrator"s browser session in context of an affected device.
[00:14] <Fiftyone> i can do nothing with it
[00:14] <filsuf> this is just a practical advice for not indulging in the mess of permission jungle
[00:14] <jegomez> Someone just gave me a 2GB USB flash drive and I haven't been able to see past 2MB. Nothing I do with fdisk, gpart or gparted is working. Any hints?
[00:14] <filsuf> can you less it Fiftyone ?
[00:15] <tyrosine2> jegomez: cfdisk it
[00:15] <fo> how can one operating system fail so hard
[00:15] <tor> jegomez: Tie them to the wheel and tell them to give you the encryption key or you'll, you'll, you'll!
[00:15] <e3co> thedude420:  just use transmission or a cli version of something
[00:15] <jegomez> tor: I don't care about the content. I just want to format it and use it anew
[00:16] <DigitalKiwi> mkfs.ext3 it?
[00:16] <e3co> thedude420:  for your torrents

[00:16] <Bernier> Hi, my wireless connection is working but only for like 5 min after it freezes, after that even if I disconnect/reconnect there is absolutely no way to reconnect back. Anyone know about this?
[00:16] <BCampbell> thedude420:: is your router set to broadcast ssid?
[00:16]  * Until_It_Sleeps smooches whoever it was that helped him restore GRUB
[00:17] <e3co> Fiftyone:  so you can mount the drive?
[00:18] <Fiftyone> E3co yes its mounted and i am browsing it now however some fils and dir are locked
[00:18] <szrhawaii> im trying to get the gui for xmms to work on my desktop but not sure how any help on this
[00:18] <e3co> how about sudo chmod -R 777 /mountpoint
[00:19] <Until_It_Sleeps> Do you guys support Kubuntu, or is that in a different channel?
[00:19] <Fiftyone> Let me try
[00:19] <_VIM_>  Until_It_Sleeps #Kubuntu
[00:19] <nickrud_> Until_It_Sleeps, some here, kde specific #kubuntu
[00:19] <tyrosine2> Until_It_Sleeps: ask away
[00:19] <Until_It_Sleeps> :D
[00:19] <Until_It_Sleeps> How would I connect to a wireless network in Kubuntu?
[00:20] <_VIM_> KDE ftw, i just dont like #Kubuntu cause no one talks :(
[00:20] <e3co> Depending on the drive it could take a while
[00:20] <Travis-42> on my test Ubuntu Server, when I run a "aptitude install" command I am told that "the following packages have been kept back: linux-headers-server linux-image-server linux-server"  Why?
[00:20] <nickrud_> !xmms | szrhawaii
[00:20] <tyrosine2> Until_It_Sleeps: does your wireless adapter show up in "ifconfig"?
[00:20] <Until_It_Sleeps> Specifically, it was installed via a LinuxMCE dvd
[00:20] <mcnellis> when I start my computer it starts the CPU in the -g powersave governor so I always have to run cpufreq-selector -g performance
[00:20] <szrhawaii> sorry it is xmms2
[00:20] <mcnellis> how can I change the startup mode/
[00:21] <tyrosine2> szrhawaii: audacious is the way to go, not xmms2
[00:21] <e3co> Travis-42:  I notice that when I run apt from the cli that sometimes happens. If you install xorg and update-manager you can use update manager without ever loaded gnome
[00:21] <e3co> loaded=loading
[00:21] <szrhawaii> ok ill try that out
[00:21] <khaled> Hi guys. How do I change the login screen theme from the command line?
[00:21] <tyrosine2> szrhawaii: just apt-get install it, it'll perform just like xmms used to
[00:21] <thedude420> BCampbell: I yes, that is what is confusing me so much oh and to correct myself it is a wrt110N
[00:21] <jegomez> tyrosine2: tried cfdisk on the flash drive, same thing (it only sees 2MB)
[00:22] <szrhawaii> ok sounds good doing that right now
[00:22] <e3co> Travis-42:  its the same line of research as " a headless virtualbox ubuntu server" google it.
[00:22] <nickrud_> Travis-42, generally a package is held back because a package it depends upon could not be upgraded
[00:22] <Until_It_Sleeps> tyrosine2: I assume the fact that a "wlan0" section means yes>
[00:22] <Travis-42> thanks e3co, I'll look into it
[00:23] <Travis-42> nickrud_: is that common for things like "linux-server" ?
[00:23] <e3co> nickrud: I have seen this happen before as well. If i run update-manager it works fine
[00:23] <tyrosine2> jegomez: then use cfdisk to erase the partitions and make your own 2GB partition
[00:23] <mcnellis> ah, actually it starts in the ondemand governor but it doesn't ever seem to raise the freq when it's needed
[00:23] <nickrud_> Travis-42, not really. Check what e3co is googling, seems like he's seen this specific error before
[00:23] <tyrosine2> Until_It_Sleeps: kwifimanager?
[00:24] <nickrud_> e3co, I'd be interested in the cause, since aptitude usually has excellent warning systems
[00:24] <jegomez> tyrosine2: I delete the partitions, but cfdisk won't let me enter a size larger than 2 for the new one
[00:24] <Until_It_Sleeps> Currently not installed.
[00:24] <e3co> mine isn't a fix its just a work around that gives you the option of running graphic applications without gnome
[00:24] <tyrosine2> jegomez: maybe you could just pop it in an 'ol windows machine and get it working that way?
[00:25] <Fiftyone> hello im trying to copy a file from an old mac hard disk i have but there are premission peoblems which wont even let me view the files. I tried  sudo cp -f to a local dir but it keeps saying obiting 'FILE NAME IM TRYING TO COPY' any ideas how i can access these files?
[00:25] <Until_It_Sleeps> and I have no way to download it without connecting to my wireless network.
[00:25] <tyrosine2> jegomez: I have a 2gb USB drive that works fine on ubuntu - autodetected it the first time I plugged it in
[00:25] <jdmnynja> Hey can anyone help me with manually replacing files that are missing out of rhythmbox?
[00:25] <jegomez> tyrosine2: this has (had) some kind of encrypted partition (I imagine)
[00:25] <e3co> Fiftyone:  no love with chmod?
[00:26] <joshjtl> I'm running Ubuntu on a slower machine than I'm used to: 1.6ghz P4, with 512ram It's not very responsive, and can be down right slow at times, is there anything other than changing Effects to "none" (which I already did) that can help?
[00:26] <filsuf> OMG .... so ... I can reuse my old SD card for installing Windows or Linux on my future Asus EEE
[00:26] <filsuf> that is nice!
[00:26] <DIFH-iceroot> joshjtl: using xubuntu-desktop instead of gnome
[00:26] <nickrud_> jdmnynja, sudo apt-get reinstall rhythmbox should replace any missing files, with the exception of /etc
[00:26] <Fiftyone> e3co naw
[00:26] <Fiftyone> Damn thing
[00:26] <BCampbell> thedude420:: the only thing I can think of is you're on two different channels?  I know it shouldn't matter, but you never know
[00:27] <jdmnynja> nickrud_: no that solution only gives me E: rhythmbox: subprocess pre-removal script returned error status 2
[00:27] <joshjtl> DIFH-iceroot: yeah I was considering that, but the problem is this system is my parents and theyre used to windows, so I dont think that they will be that comfortable with XFCE
[00:27] <DIFH-iceroot> joshjtl: ok
[00:27] <nickrud_> ah, put the complete error on paste.ubuntu.com.  from the start of the command till the end
[00:27] <jdmnynja> nickrud_: I've tried to purge, remove, install, a lot of things. nothing worked. the only solution I can find to it is to manually replace the missing files from the package.
[00:28] <LogicFan> if you install msttcorefonts via synaptic, does gnome switch to using them by default?
[00:28] <nickrud_> LogicFan, no, they are simply available. Mostly good for web sites that prefer them
[00:28] <joshjtl> DIFH-iceroot: anything else I can do?
[00:28] <LogicFan> nickrud, thanks, appreciate it
[00:30] <thedude420> did some looking and it looks like I am out of luck with ubuntu and linksys WRT110. Thanks anyways guys
[00:30] <e3co> joshjtl:  check private messeges
[00:31] <nICOOO> hello
[00:31] <nICOOO> does any1 know about socket programming?

[00:31] <jove> Hi, does anyone know how to convert TOAST file to ISO file ?
[00:31] <nickrud_> jdmnynja, did you put the output up? if so, give me the link so I can see the full error report
[00:31] <ben_ny> Hi all
[00:31] <e3co> daa
[00:31] <e3co> ?
[00:31] <e3co> what is extention of toad .img?
[00:31] <e3co> toad=toast
[00:31] <jdmnynja> nickrud_: i did put the output up, but I don't have the link. what do you want me to run so you can see?
[00:32] <FluxD> Hi, I cant click anything on my desktop for some reason
[00:32] <tyrosine2> FluxD: what WM u usin?
[00:32] <nickrud_> jdmnynja, when you hit submit, the url in the location bar changes to include a number. That full url is what I need so I can see the page
[00:32] <djamel> FluxD it's safer :)
[00:32] <ben_ny> I have a quick n00b question. I just hooked a Cannon S9000 printer up via USB - and Ubuntu picked it up right away / shows up as my default. However, I get no options for paper size other then LTR, and actual printing brings up a generic 'error' message. Sound familiar? Msg me, thanks! (not a tech-guy btw, plain english needed!)
[00:32] <FluxD> tyrosine2, compiz, but then I went back to metacity but same problem
[00:32] <CarlFK> how do I remove a package, including any confg files?  (I want it to ask for options when I re-install)
[00:32] <FluxD> lol djamel
[00:32] <djamel> :)
[00:32] <nickrud_> CarlFK, sudo apt-get purge <package>
[00:33] <jdmnynja> nickrud_: hold on I will have to go make a link
[00:33] <jove> Hi, does anyone know how to convert .TOAST file to ISO file ?
[00:33] <ari_stress> good morning all :)
[00:33] <khaled> How do I change my login screen gnome theme from command line?
[00:34] <CarlFK> nickrud - no luck.  sudo apt-get purge mysql-server ... sudo apt-get install mysql-server - didn't aske me for the admin pw
[00:34] <tyrosine2> jove: mv a.toast a.iso
[00:34] <FluxD> tyrosine2, any ideas?
[00:34] <tyrosine2> FluxD: are you referring to icons which cannot be clicked?
[00:34] <jove> tyrosine2, is that simple and easy ?
[00:34] <alienkid> hello how do I change the color of active windows in the task list(in the .gtkrc-2.0 file)?
[00:34] <joshjtl> are there any nice "tours"  of Ubuntu for windows users? I'd like to have something for my parents to flip through to get a little more aquainted with Ubuntu, and how to do their normal Windows in Ubuntu
[00:34] <FluxD> tyrosine2, yea, and I cannot right click, sam e also when I start nautlus cant click anything inside
[00:34] <CarlFK> nickrud - but man apt-get says (any configuration files are deleted too).... huh.
[00:34] <tyrosine2> jove: totally.  Using the "mv" tool, you can convert anything to anything!
[00:35] <nickrud_> CarlFK, ah, the db already exists so the installer uses the existing root password
[00:35] <joshjtl> someone answered this well for me, but I can't find the response and forgot what they said
[00:35] <tyrosine2> FluxD: are you sure your mouse isn't broken :-p
[00:35] <durt> jove: what is a TOAST file?
[00:35] <centaur5> If you use the new tool to create a USB live boot disk is there a way to make it keep drivers installed (ie ATI, Broadcom) after reboot?
[00:35] <FluxD> tyrosine2, no its not broken
[00:35] <nickrud_> CarlFK, the password isn't in the configuration stuff , but in the db. If you told it to delete the db, then you would get asked for the root password
[00:35] <tyrosine2> joshjtl: it was me, and the ubuntu docs page has a transition page just for windows users
[00:35] <CarlFK> nickrud - yeah - any clue how to toast it?
[00:36] <nickrud_> CarlFK, doesn't it ask you if you want to keep the db or not when you purge?
[00:36] <Kai_Itaho> how do i install a monitor on 8.04.2 Hardy?
[00:36] <tyrosine2> Kai_Itaho: plug it in the VGA port
[00:36] <CarlFK> nickrud nope
[00:36] <jove> tyrosine2, I read in the internet that must convert to a raw file ....Have U done this specific .toast convert to ISO before ?
[00:36] <jdmnynja> nickrud_: http://paste.ubuntu.com/119878/
[00:36] <tyrosine2> jove: that was a joke.  "mv" just renames the file ;-)
[00:36] <Kai_Itaho> it doesnt pick up when i plug it in
[00:36] <joshjtl> thanks tyrosine2 where can I find that page... /usr/docs ?
[00:36] <nickrud_> CarlFK, sudo rm -r /var/lib/mysql from memory, I don't have a mysql install in this vm
[00:36] <Kai_Itaho> WOAH
[00:36] <Kai_Itaho> never mind
[00:37] <Kai_Itaho> hahahaha that was a stupid question
[00:37] <jove> tyrosine2, then i won't work as your guidance
[00:37] <Kai_Itaho> yay
[00:37] <djamel> CarlFK, rename the .toast in .iso & burn it that's all
[00:37] <fo> windows computer playing this dvd with no problem. in vlc. same program i'm using in ubuntu. why
[00:37] <Kai_Itaho> now, how do i change the resolution on my second monitor but keep the same on my laptop?
[00:38] <jdmnynja> nickrud_: did that link work for you?
[00:38] <tyrosine2> joshjtl: http://help.ubuntu.com - select 8.10 - and click "switching from windows" at the bottom
[00:38] <joshjtl> ohhh thanks tyrosine2
[00:38] <Kai_Itaho> Tyrosine...is your name an amino acid o.O?
[00:38] <nickrud_> jdmnynja,   gksu gedit /var/lib/dpkg/info/rhythmbox.prerm,  add a line after set -e  and put   exit 0  there. Then save and exit, rerun the apt-get purge rhythmbox . We'll just ignore removing that since it's not there. I assume you deleted it by hand?
[00:38] <shoterboyx> guys....my linux have no sound
[00:38] <shoterboyx> how can i fix this
[00:38] <fo> yes, tyrosine is one of the twenty essential amino acids!
[00:38] <shoterboyx> i m using realtek conexant
[00:38] <tyrosine2> joshjtl: youtube works really well for that, surprisingly
[00:38] <fo> it is also aromatic
[00:38] <jegomez> tyrosine2: windows formatted it as a 2MB drive, it couldn't see past that
[00:39] <Fiftyone> hello im trying to copy a file from an old mac hard disk i have but there are premission peoblems which wont even let me view the files. I tried  sudo cp -f to a local dir but it keeps saying obiting 'FILE NAME IM TRYING TO COPY' any ideas how i can access these files?
[00:39] <tyrosine2> fo: there are 22 now ;-)
[00:39] <Kai_Itaho> thats what i thought! haha!
[00:39] <jdmnynja> nickrud_: i never touched rhythmbox. that error has been there since i installed ubuntu.
[00:39] <fo> whateva
[00:39] <nickrud_> jdmnynja, that's verrry odd.
[00:39] <tyrosine2> fo: selenocysteine is #21
[00:39] <Kai_Itaho> well 22 important ones for the growth of humans
[00:39] <Kai_Itaho> arent there MILLIONS others?
[00:39] <tyrosine2> it was a new discovery a few years ago
[00:39] <fo> i only had to learn 20 for biochem
[00:39] <tyrosine2> yeah, but we can make them ourselves.
[00:39] <tyrosine2> essential = needed from food
[00:39] <Kai_Itaho> i c
[00:39] <joshjtl> can themes(gtk, metacity, icons) make a difference on a systems speed?
[00:39] <cizorty> which one the baseball players use?
[00:40] <tyrosine2> crack rocks
[00:40] <nickrud_> jdmnynja, I'd bee leary of that install myself, if you truly haven't deleted those files under /usr
[00:40] <shoterboyx> hey guys how can i fix my audio.....my linux have no sound....i m using realtek conexant
[00:40] <tyrosine2> jegomez: ever consider that your USB drive is actually only 2mb?
[00:40] <jdmnynja> nickrud_: i know. it started when I first installed and started updated my system. it keeps popping up and error related to rhythmbox and is not allowing me to run flash
[00:40] <Kai_Itaho> Tyr, is there a way i can change the resolution on my monitor?
[00:40] <Sal__> anyone have any clue how much bandwidth the vnc server actually eats up with the default settings?
[00:40] <nickrud_> joshjtl, gtk can. Different themes use different theme engines, and some take a lot more processing power
[00:40] <shoterboyx> hey guys how can i fix my audio.....my linux have no sound....i m using realtek conexant
[00:40] <Kai_Itaho> it doesnt go above 1280x800
[00:40] <tyrosine2> tyrosine2: with ubuntu? system -> prefs -> screen resolution
[00:41] <Sal__> say @ a res of 1024x768
[00:41] <jegomez> tyrosine2: heh, I almost did. It does say "2GB" on it, though...
[00:41] <jdmnynja> nickrud_: other than that error, nothing is running bad at all. I read this article http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-562594.html and it seems there is others with this issue.
[00:41] <shoterboyx> anybody can help me ??
[00:41] <nickrud_> jdmnynja, it won't let you install anything. Anyway, that command will fix apt for you
[00:41] <Kai_Itaho> i want 1680x1050 but that's not a choice :S
[00:41] <tyrosine2> jegomez: it was probably made in mexico then.  they count memory size in pesos.  It's 2 gigapesos.
[00:41] <Kai_Itaho> LOL
[00:41] <esworp> I've recently installed ubuntu (first time user) on my OLPC, and am having a few quirks i could use some help on..
[00:41] <mariano> hi
[00:42] <Fiftyone> hello im trying to copy a file from an old mac hard disk i have but there are premission peoblems which wont even let me view the files. I tried  sudo cp -f to a local dir but it keeps saying obiting 'FILE NAME IM TRYING TO COPY' any ideas how i can access these files?
[00:42] <Sal__> anyone?
[00:42] <mariano> is anyone reading me?
[00:42] <jegomez> tyrosine2: I doubt it would have made it this far. 2MB drives were probably made back in the 80s
[00:42] <Kai_Itaho> hello! Welcome to #ubuntu help IRC chat
[00:42] <esworp> would someone mind  giving me a hand?
[00:42] <tyrosine2> Sal__: maybe your VIDEO CARD doesn't support higher resolutions?
[00:42] <jdmnynja> nickrud_: hey im not really understanding your command to put in. what do i do again?
[00:42] <nickrud_> jdmnynja,   gksu gedit /var/lib/dpkg/info/rhythmbox.prerm,  add a line after set -e  and put   exit 0  there. Then save and exit, rerun the apt-get purge rhythmbox . We'll just ignore removing that since it's not there. I assume you deleted it by hand?
[00:42] <Sal__> tyro my question is how much bandwidth is eating up?
[00:42] <shoterboyx> hey guys how can i fix my audio.....my linux have no sound....i m using realtek conexant
[00:42] <Sal__> im trying to connect to my dedicated server
[00:42] <jdmnynja> nickrud_: i'm still pretty new with the terminal stuff.
[00:42] <evilGUI> Hello I have a problem after relocking the root account on my server I get a lot of these in /var/log/auth.log CRON[13880]: pam_unix(cron:account): account root has expired (account expired)
[00:42] <Sal__> which has the server on it
[00:42] <durt> !ask | esworp
[00:42] <tyrosine2> Sal__: are you in orlando?
[00:42] <Sal__> i want to know how much bandwidth its going to eat up @ 1024 x 768 res
[00:43] <Sal__> no
[00:43] <jeeves> is there a native Ubuntu app like M$ $?  Or has Wine been able to run it properly?
[00:43] <jdmnynja> nickrud_: what do you mean add a line after set -e?
[00:43] <nickrud_> jdmnynja, the only thing you will be typing into the terminal is the gksu gedit /var/lib/dpkg/info/rhythmbox.prerm
[00:43] <tyrosine2> Sal__: just run "top" in a console and see what X is taking up
[00:43] <esworp> thanks durf.
[00:43] <shoterboyx> hey guys how can i fix my audio.....my linux have no sound....i m using realtek conexant
[00:43] <nickrud_> jdmnynja, let me know when you've run that command in the terminal, then we'll work on where that command goes
[00:43] <scientes> im using apt-cacher, but some of the ubuntu package names clash with the debian package names
[00:43] <scientes> how can i make this not happen?
[00:43] <glenrock> jeeves: you could check out gnucash and see if you like it
[00:43] <Kai_Itaho> Tyr, Screen Resolution only gives me at a max of 1280x1024
[00:43] <stealthy45> Titan8990: Still around
[00:44] <nickrud_> jdmnynja, erm, first command gksu gedit ...  , second is editing the file to include the edit 0
[00:44] <stealthy45> Hello, I need help getting the 1280x1024 resolution to work. It's my LCD's native resolution but absolutely refuses to work even using xrandr and custom modelines.
[00:44] <jeeves> glenrock, I did, I'm not really a fan.  as much as I want to get away from microsoft, I still like the usability of it (and I'd prefer not to have my accountant relearn everything)
[00:44] <Marfi> What video card, stealthy45 ?
[00:44] <jdmnynja> nickrud_: i have the command in and i am now in a window with blue text, looks like html or something.
[00:44] <houlaa> hello
[00:44] <Marfi> Hola houlaa
[00:45] <houlaa> ola
[00:45] <houlaa> what's up
[00:45] <Marfi> houlaa, the sky here. How bout you? =)
[00:45] <joshjtl> nickrud what about icon themes?
[00:45] <chort27> hi
[00:45] <stealthy45> Marfi: nvidia geforce 7950gt
[00:45] <stealthy45> using the 180 driver
[00:45] <chort27> can someone help me with installing ubuntu 6.10 on my iBook G3?
[00:45] <Marfi> stealthy45, is that the recommended one?
[00:45] <houlaa> houaw it's wired i am sorry to say that but im newbi on irc
[00:46] <jove> #/ebuntu
[00:46] <houlaa> haha
[00:46] <Kai_Itaho> chort, thats alittle bit hard to help you.......
[00:46] <jove> #ebuntu
[00:46] <cizorty> what's a good command to compromise my system?
[00:46] <jove> #ubuntu
[00:46] <stealthy45> Marfi: I believe so
[00:46] <esworp> ummm..   so.  ok here's one, this OLPC install was a prebuilt image (google olpc ubuntu if you're curious)  with one user "olpc'.   I wanted to add other users, since i have roommates, etc.     (using xfce) i went to system -> users & groups and was met by a message 'The configuration coud not be loaded, you are not allowed to access the system configuation [close]"
[00:46] <Kai_Itaho> jove: what are you doing?
[00:46] <durt> chort27: 6.10 is no longer supported
[00:46] <chort27> Well I just want to know how to install it as my main operating system
[00:46] <Kai_Itaho> what are you running now?
[00:46] <nickrud_> jdmnynja, you should see, on the second line,   set -e
[00:46] <esworp> this problem occurs with System ->  shared folders, too.
[00:46] <durt> is there even a 6.10?
[00:46] <chort27> Mac OS X
[00:46] <Titan8990> stealthy45, still around but I am in class ATM
[00:47] <houlaa> can somewhone can just tell me how to get some help?
[00:47] <jdmnynja> nickrud_: yes.
[00:47] <Kai_Itaho> hmm
[00:47] <Kai_Itaho> use 8.04.2
[00:47] <nickrud_> jdmnynja, add a blank line below that, and  type   exit 0  on it
[00:47] <Kai_Itaho> chort: its the best supported one out here
[00:47] <chort27> i tried using 8.04
[00:47] <houlaa> in order to know commands
[00:47] <stealthy45> Marfi: it's a samsung syncmaster if that makes any difference
[00:47] <chort27> but it yelled at me about not having a supported CD-ROM drive
[00:47] <chort27> plus im afraid my specs aren't good enough
[00:47] <Kai_Itaho> then yell back?
[00:47] <jove> Hi, does anyone know how to convert TOAST file to ISO file ?
[00:47] <chort27> tried that, but then it gave me a kernel error
[00:48] <Kai_Itaho> netbooks USE 8.04
[00:48] <nT4BR> o galera
[00:48] <stealthy45> I know that the xorg logs are showing that it can't get anything from edid and that it can't fin a valid mode for 1280x1024 despit my modeline
[00:48] <jdmnynja> nickrud_: done.
[00:48] <nT4BR> to com um probleminha aki, instalei o postgre porem nunca usei ele antes, eu naum sei qual o usuario e senha que eu uso no psql -U
[00:48] <nT4BR> ele foi instalado via apt-get
[00:48] <Marfi> stealthy45, does the 3d acceleration work for the card? The drivers may not be working completely. You can do glxgears from the terminal to check
[00:48] <nickrud_> jdmnynja, ok, what we've done here is tell this script to exit when it gets to this line. If you look below it, you'll see the commands that fail. We're simply not going to run them.
[00:49] <nickrud_> jdmnynja, now, save and close the text editor
[00:49] <jdmnynja> nickrud_: all right.
[00:49] <nickrud_> jdmnynja, now run   sudo apt-get purge rhythmbox
[00:49] <stealthy45> Marfi: Yes, 3d accel works fin
[00:50] <nT4BR> ops sry, i dont see, this is one english chanel ;?
[00:50] <Marfi> stealthy45, What does the modeline look like?
[00:50] <Jack_Sparrow> !br > nT4BR
[00:50] <Jack_Sparrow> correct
[00:50] <jdmnynja> nickrud_: all right. it ran through and after ldconfig deferred processing now taking place it stopped
[00:50] <Voltron_> does anyone else running a Compaq V6000 series have REALLY slow network performance?
[00:50] <nickrud_> jdmnynja, try installing flash now
[00:50] <tuxflavrdwafls> Does anyone know a terminal command to make sure compiz, and compiz fusion are completely up to date?
[00:50] <nT4BR> sry
[00:51]  * Marfi waves to Jack_Sparrow
[00:51] <jdmnynja> would the command be sudo apt-get install flashplugin-nonfree?
[00:51] <glenrock> tuxflavrdwafls: 'sudo apt-get update' will make sure all packages are up to date
[00:51] <stealthy45> Marfi: one moment
[00:51] <chort27> wish my G3 had wifi XD
[00:51] <Marfi> stealthy45, mmkay
[00:51] <nickrud_> jdmnynja, sudo apt-get install flashplugin-nonfree  will do it from the command line
[00:52] <jdmnynja> nickrud_: it says that it is already the newest version. but i cannot run youtube videos
[00:52] <tuxflavrdwafls> glenrock thankyou
[00:52] <nickrud_> jdmnynja, ah, that's a different problem then. But at least apt is fixed :)
[00:53] <nT4BR> hey i need help, what is the default user in postgre instaled via apt-get?
[00:53] <houlaa> ?
[00:53] <nickrud_> jdmnynja, before we move on to flash, we should doublecheck that rhythmbox won't be an issue in the future
[00:53] <jdmnynja> nickrud_: lol all right how do i go about this?
[00:54] <nickrud_> jdmnynja, sudo rm /var/cache/apt/archives/rhythmbox*  , if it says file not found that's fine
[00:54] <esworp> I am having trouble with not being able to run the Users and Groups pp in xfce.. anyone care to help?  ;]
[00:54] <raylu> nickrud_: aptitude clean might be easier
[00:54] <nickrud_> raylu, I hate removing all the debs; I have a verrrry large cache including old debs
[00:54] <jdmnynja> nickrud_: it says no such file.
[00:54] <nickrud_> jdmnynja, ok,  sudo apt-get install rhythmbox
[00:55] <jdmnynja> nickrud_: do i need rhythmbox for youtube?
[00:55] <jdmnynja> nickrud_: i have heard it is crap and i installed amarok
[00:55] <nickrud_> jdmnynja, no, and amarok sucks also :) I use banshee ;)
[00:55] <houlaa> Do you know why "/help" doesn't work
[00:56] <jdmnynja> nickrud_: all right then, lets just not use rhythmbox then and  I will use banshee. lets get youtube fixed up lol
[00:56] <DigitalKiwi> what are all these +e -e?
[00:56] <raylu> houlaa: in irssi? check your status window
[00:56] <Marfi> houlaa, are you trying to run help on a command? Sorry the PM didn't work. ;)
[00:56] <nickrud_> jdmnynja, can you see any flash video at all? http://kb.adobe.com/selfservice/viewContent.do?externalId=tn_15507 is a good test
[00:56] <houlaa> yes in irssi
[00:57] <ugliefrog> My mouse after a few minutes acts like it goes to sleep you have to shake it and clik a bunch to get it to quit. Is there a setting to fix that
[00:57] <jdmnynja> nickrud_: i see a big grey screen with a play button in the middle.
[00:57] <nickrud_> jdmnynja, I'm going to be gone shortly, so hopefully this will be quick
[00:57] <jdmnynja> nickrud_: it doesn't play a video.
[00:57] <nickrud_> ok, this test simply reports the version you're running.
[00:58] <houlaa> i have: [ my name ] [ my 2und channel(+JLfnt) ] [Act: 1,3] <-- What does it mean ?
[00:58] <Marfi> stealthy45, there are a few posts on google. The one that I remember doing is to explicitly set xorg.conf to use the 1280x1024. You could also look up the specs for the monitor, and make a modeline like that
[00:58] <nickrud_> jdmnynja, did you try installing flash in any other way, besides using ubuntu repositories?
[00:58] <jdmnynja> nickrud_: all right i am running WIN 9,0,999,9 debug player: no
[00:58] <jdmnynja> nickrud_: i believe i did try to install it from the browser.
[00:58] <rww> houlaa: New stuff happened in windows 1 and 3. You can switch to those windows with Alt-1 and Alt-3.
[00:59] <nickrud_> ah, that is very strange. WIN? Should be LNX
[00:59] <MEESO_THELIOMA> Do you have Asbestos Poisoning?
[00:59] <MEESO_THELIOMA>  Meeso Thelioma
[00:59] <jdmnynja> nickrud_: i know, thats what i was thinking. maybe i can purge it and then reinstall?
[00:59] <houlaa> rww, it doesn't work
[00:59] <jdmnynja> nickrud_: i am also running 64 bit so that may change things up
[00:59] <rww> houlaa: are you running gnome-terminal with more than one tab open? that tends to screw it up.
[00:59] <Kai_Itaho> how do i install a nvidia driver? i downloaded it but i dont know how to run/install it?
[01:00] <houlaa> nop
[01:00] <Marfi> Kai_Itaho, use the restricted driver's manager. System > admin > hardware drivers
[01:00] <houlaa> rww, i am using yakuake
[01:00] <nickrud_> jdmnynja, no, those are two different places to install from. try looking in ~/.mozilla/plugins ; I'm not sure where the browser way installs. And, 64 bit I'm not sure about.
[01:00] <nickrud_> jdmnynja, to be honest, you're probably better off finding someone who knows what they're talking about when it comes to flash :)
[01:00] <Kai_Itaho> what if i want to use the one i downloaded?
[01:00] <houlaa> rww, but it's the same i think
[01:01] <jdmnynja> nickrud_: all right man. i'll ask around. thanks for your help on the rhythmbox crap though!
[01:01] <fo> windows computer playing this dvd with no problem. in vlc. same program i'm using in ubuntu. why does it fail in ubuntu
[01:02] <nickrud_> jdmnynja, one more thing before we go:  run   sudo apt-get -f install ; if there're no errors that's good. Just a final check of our work
[01:02] <e3co> fo: you need to enable dvd playback... info on ubuntu forums and google
[01:02] <rww> !dvd | fo
[01:02] <houlaa> rww, ALRIGHT !!! i am using eee pc press shift 'n tab and it's oka
[01:02] <ugliefrog> My opitcal usb mouse after a few minutes acts like it goes to sleep you have to shake it and clik a bunch to get it to start working normally. Is there a setting to fix that
[01:02] <jdmnynja> nickrud_: everything is good.
[01:02] <fo> e3co, rww i did the things medibuntu told me to do. is this the samething?
[01:02] <e3co> why no free dvd play codec for the open source world?
[01:03] <Kai_Itaho> how do i install a driver that is a .run file ? NVIDIA-Linux-x86_64-180.29-pkg2.run
[01:03] <nickrud_> jdmnynja, ok, take care then and good luck with flash
[01:03] <BCampbell> jdmnynja:: have you rad the forum on 64bit and flash?  http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=772490
[01:03] <jdmnynja> nickrud_: thanks!
[01:03] <e3co> can I send a PM from the text box?
[01:03] <jdmnynja> BCampbell: i'll go read it.
[01:03] <e3co> using pidgin
[01:03] <rww> Kai_Itaho: Don't use the Nvidia driver from nvidias website. Use the restricted driver manager instead.
[01:03] <mereo> so... is anyone using ubuntu 64 bit?
[01:03] <rww> e3co: /msg username message
[01:03] <rww> !anyone | mereo
[01:04] <BCampbell> funny thing is, i can see flash vids on most sites other than youtube, and I'm a 64bit too...very strange
[01:05] <StR|Sangreal> hello

[01:06] <StR|Sangreal> pls can you advise me supposedly the most accurate substitute to total commander?
[01:06] <funkyHat> I'd like to set my console resolution to 1680x1050 (my monitor's native res), I have an ATi radeon x1650 and I'm currently using the fglrx driver for X
[01:06] <Surautomatism> can somebody help with the ubuntu studio install?
[01:06] <funkyHat> Is that possible? Or at least setting a higher res like 1280x1024
[01:06] <Kai_Itaho> thanks rww

[01:07] <Surautomatism> i'm at the part where there are 4 components it asks to install (not a gui installer) and i want to check each box... but if i press enter it moves to the next step. what button do i use?
[01:07] <Marfi> stealthy45, =)
[01:08] <rww> Surautomatism: probably tab to each one then press space. I haven't installed Ubuntu Studio, though, so I might be wrong.

[01:08] <Surautomatism> thank you. somebody on the studio channel finally logged in and gave me the same answer
[01:09] <whileimhere> Hi Is there a recommended partition size for the / directory when installing ubuntu?
[01:09] <Marfi> stealthy45, I don't know if this makes a difference, but try to do 1280x1024@60
[01:09] <austin> how do i set my mic for audacity?
[01:10] <Marfi> whileimhere, As big as you can fit
[01:10] <Marfi> austin, can the computer see the mic?
[01:10] <StR|Sangreal> so... some total commander substitute for me?
[01:10] <austin> Marfi: how do i know if it can?
[01:10] <whileimhere> Marfi I have a 40 gig drive that is all
[01:10] <rww> whileimhere: As much space as you feel like dedicating to it, with a recommendation that you use more than 8GB.
[01:10] <Marfi> whileimhere, that will work
[01:11] <whileimhere> but I was hoping to partition it so that I have a swap, /, and a /home
[01:11] <Marfi> austin, Try using soundrecorder to record the sound. You could also check your sound properties, and turn the volume of the mic up
[01:11] <StephenZ> Aloha. Anyone know a quick link that actually makes sense to the uninitiated on how to change file permissions?
[01:11] <Marfi> whileimhere, Ubuntu will automatically do that for you
[01:11] <stealthy45> Marfi: Still "No valid modes for "1280x1024"; removing.

[01:12] <StephenZ> Thank you, Marfi.
[01:12] <austin> Marfi: and it just dissapeared
[01:12] <Marfi> stealthy45, np
[01:12] <kamyk> i have switch asus GX1008B/G and wer is configuration ? i want somting like <IP_ADDRESS> ?
[01:12] <whileimhere> ahh I guess I just will buy an external drive for back up then in case I have to re-image this machine.
[01:13] <fearful> prince_jammys, you there?
[01:13] <Marfi> austin, do you have sound on the computer?
[01:13] <savvas> fo: what disc?
[01:13] <mereo> For those who tried the 64 bit, have you seen any difference with the 32 bit?
[01:13] <rww> mereo: no
[01:14] <nightrid3r> kamyk if its a swith i dout it can be configured, if its a router then use the default gateway adress as the adress to configure
[01:14] <austin> Marfi: yes, i'm listing to music now as we speak
[01:14] <stealthy45> Marfi: I'm pretty clueless as to where to go from here
[01:14] <Marfi> stealthy45, what is the model of the monitor?
[01:14] <savvas> mereo: 32-bit has better stability with flash, java plugin and other 32-bit programs - but other than that.. it's all good
[01:14] <mereo> marfi, what are you trying to do, sorry, just joined the chat, I too had a resolution problem
[01:15] <kamyk> nigtrider: i have switch
[01:16] <nightrid3r> kamyk home use switches don't need config, they just work
[01:16] <savvas> mereo: plus, the fact that adobe has 64-bit flash now has changed a lot of stuff - even though it's alpha/beta stage, it's really stable: http://labs.adobe.com/downloads/flashplayer10.html
[01:16] <Marfi> austin, for Ubuntu, you double click on the sound in the desk tray, then hit prefferences
[01:16] <hajmola> my built-in mic on my laptop sounds extremely distorted, to the point where you can't even understand what i'm saying (in voice chats), anyone know why that would be?
[01:16] <Marfi> austin, and you modify the volume there
[01:16] <kamyk> ok but not my
[01:16] <Marfi> mereo, trying to help stealthy45 with his video driver
[01:16] <nightrid3r> kamyk lemme check
[01:16] <stealthy45> Marfi: Samsung SyncMaster 916V
[01:16] <mereo> savvas, interesting. But I'm already on the the 32 bit version... I guess I'll install the 64 bit at the next realease
[01:17] <mereo> Marfi, ah ok, he can't get a certain resolution?
[01:17] <kamyk> ?
[01:17] <Marfi> mereo, right
[01:17] <ElCapitan> dumb question but how do I know what drive is being used for my video card?
[01:17] <mereo> Marfi, I had that problem
[01:18] <Marfi> mereo, what type of monitor?
[01:18] <jdmnynja> how do I find where my mozilla is so I can extract a file to the plug ins?
[01:18] <nightrid3r> kamyk its an unmanaged switch so no config is needed
[01:18] <stealthy45> holy dog**** I think I got it
[01:18] <austin> marfi: alright, got it set, but still won't recrod
[01:18] <savvas> ElCapitan: sudo lshw -C display
[01:18] <Marfi> austin, is it picking up the sound?
[01:18] <mereo> Marfi, It's a CRT monitor, I couldn't get it to accept my custom 72 HZ refresh rate
[01:19] <austin> no
[01:19] <nightrid3r> kamyk maybe you have another box that's a ROUTER, that one can be configured
[01:19] <beobab> Is there a collecton of text tools for converting between ODT and Office formats?
[01:19] <stealthy45> Marfi, finally got it; had to manually specify horiz and vert frequencies in xorg.conf
[01:19] <austin> marfi: no, its not
[01:19] <stealthy45> I'll live with the 50hz refresh rate
[01:19] <Marfi> stealthy45, alright. I am only getting 250 hits on google for your monitor. =)
[01:19] <savvas> beobab: you mean .odt and .doc ?
[01:19] <Marfi> austin, try to turn the volume for the mic up
[01:19] <mereo> Stealthy45, It's an LCD?
[01:19] <FrankT-Qc> Hi !
[01:19] <fearful> Any idea why my swap is never in use on xfce
[01:19] <austin> marfi: i did
[01:20] <stealthy45> Marfi: heh
[01:20] <stealthy45> mereo: yes
[01:20] <Marfi> austin, is it plugged into the right spot?
[01:20] <beobab> savvas: Yeah, those two in particular. Koffice2 doesn't have filters for any Office formats. ;\
[01:20] <mereo> Stealthy45, Don't worry about 50 hz, ubuntu got it wrong
[01:20] <stealthy45> mmk
[01:20] <austin> marfi: yup, just checked
[01:20] <FrankT-Qc> Need a little help about the repos, anybody ???
[01:20] <Marfi> austin, what type of sound card?
[01:21] <fearful> No swap usage on xfce any ideas?
[01:21] <austin> marfi: onboard sound
[01:21] <hlm> is there a graphical form of iptables?
[01:21] <mereo> Stealthy, I have a CRT and ubuntu is showing 50 hz, even tho I'm running it at 72 hz
[01:21] <Marfi> austin, what type of sound card?
[01:21] <mereo> Stealthy45, I have a CRT and ubuntu is showing 50 hz, even tho I'm running it at 72 hz
[01:21] <Marfi> austin, whos the company that makes it
[01:21] <FrankT-Qc> hlm : Isn't firestarter an easy one ?
[01:21] <rww> !firewall | hlm
[01:21] <austin> marfi: its, Gigabite
[01:21] <Marfi> fearful, you can use the ram for swap
[01:21] <austin> marfi: a gigabite mobo, but thats all i know
[01:22] <savvas> beobab: ah koffice.. no idea :) in openoffice word, I just head to File > Save as and have the options there
[01:22] <Marfi> austin, when your in the prefferences for the sound...what is the type of device? It should tell you
[01:22] <allquixotic> Hi, I just recovered my server (over ssh) from a horrible failure: it was starting NetworkManager, which trampled on its static IP configuration. I only had a few seconds in the shell each boot, so I ran some diagnostics and rm'ed the NetworkManager binary. Now: How can I absolutely forbid the network-manager package from ever being installed again on the server?
[01:22] <fearful> Marfi: I know, but usually in gnome I'm using RAM and swap on xfce not using any swap is at 0%
[01:22] <nightrid3r> kamyk ?
[01:22] <mun> can head be used to print the nth line?
[01:22] <austin> marfi: HDA ATI HDMI | HDA INtel
[01:22] <th__> how do i know whats name of my box
[01:22] <fearful> Marfi, just wondering if its working or not
[01:23] <Flux_teh_Fox> $HOSTNAME
[01:23] <Marfi> fearful, swapping in ram? I used it on my Eee PC
[01:23] <DigitalKiwi> allquixotic: that is not the first catastrophic bug I've heard of networkmanager and ubuntu XD
[01:23] <Flux_teh_Fox> th__:echo $HOSTNAME"
[01:23] <DigitalKiwi> iirc, the other one was basically ignored, too :/
[01:23] <Marfi> austin, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/HdaIntelSoundHowto   tons of stuff on google for hda intel sound
[01:23] <Marfi> austin, that link should hlep you
[01:23] <fearful> Marfi, well in Gnome I open the system monitor and RAM was at 25% and swap at 9%, and on xfce RAM is at 30% and swap 0%
[01:23] <savvas> allquixotic: sudo aptitude purge network-manager; sudo aptitude forbid-version network-manager
[01:24] <allquixotic> savvas: Thanks :)
[01:24] <Arch_NME> hello, I need to know how to get permission to save the changes I have made to my etc/fstab file? Can anyone help me with this?
[01:24] <Kai_Itaho> okay, for some odd reason my monitor won't work on ubuntu again
[01:24] <Kai_Itaho> it did work like 10minutes ago
[01:24] <Flux_teh_Fox> you have to be root
[01:24] <Marfi> fearful, xfce could be using the ram instead of the swap, is what it seems like
[01:24] <Arch_NME> how to I be root?
[01:24] <rww> Arch_NME: sudo nano /etc/fstab or gksudo gedit /etc/fstab
[01:24] <savvas> allquixotic: if that doesn't work, use Synaptic, select your package, and from the menu Package > Lock version - it "pins" the version and doesn't allow it to show newer ones
[01:24] <fearful> Arch_NME, open with sudo
[01:24] <Meshezabeel> When I open up the CD/DVD Creator folder (built into Nautilus) I now get two differerent buttons that say "Write to Disc". Is anyone else having this problem?
[01:25] <Arch_NME> ok thank you
[01:25] <stealthy45> Marfi: Now for my soundblaster audigy 2 value...
[01:25] <fearful> Arch_NME, sudo gedit /etc/fstab
[01:25] <e3co> savvas:  thats a badass command thanks from me too
[01:25] <austin> mafri: i don't know what anyof this means...i'm a new to ubuntu
[01:25] <fearful> Marfi, ok, just thought it would be a bit wierd
[01:25] <FrankT-Qc> Hello again : Anybody here implied in repos management ?
[01:25] <savvas> e3co: np :) but read the Synaptic alternative, it forbid-version might not work as expected heh
[01:26] <ibuclaw> mun, you can do, but it is easier to just use sed or awk instead
[01:26] <Fiftyone> e3co iwhat bad ass command i love bad aas commands
[01:26] <rww> !anyone | FrankT-Qc
[01:26] <e3co> sudo aptitude purge network-manager; sudo aptitude forbid-version network-manager
[01:26] <mun> ibuclaw: ok thanks
[01:26] <rww> fearful: That should be gksudo gedit, not sudo gedit.
[01:26] <e3co> just the forbid-version part
[01:26] <plazia> stealthy45, be thankful you don't have an x-fi :)
[01:26] <mun> ibuclaw: i think i'll use head -n $n | tail -1 instead though
[01:26] <rww> !gksudo | fearful
[01:26] <ibuclaw> mun,   sed '123q;d'
[01:27] <ibuclaw> mun, where 123 is the line number
[01:27] <DigitalKiwi> oh cool I never knew about gksudo
[01:27] <mun> ibuclaw: ah okay. thanks for that
[01:27] <FrankT-Qc> There's been an important security update in vsftpd and I was wondering if I could raise a flag to someone so it makes it to the repos as fast as possible. Any idea to whom I should talk ?
[01:27] <fearful> rww: Ok sorry bout that, gksudo then Arch_NME.
[01:27] <e3co> gksudo is the kung-foo of xorg
[01:27] <Kai_Itaho> how do I switch monitors in ubuntu?
[01:27] <Fiftyone> always wondered what the difference was
[01:27] <Raylz> do attachements get encrypted in evolution when encrypting a mail with pgp?
[01:28] <fearful> Same here, guess now I know
[01:28] <e3co> system/preferences/screen resolution
[01:28] <e3co> to change monitors
[01:28] <hlm> I need help: transmission says port 44966 is closed, but my router has the proper port forwarded, and I dont know how to use firestarter..
[01:29] <FrankT-Qc> Kai_Itaho : what driver are you using ?
[01:29] <Kai_Itaho> the restricted Nvidia driver
[01:29] <austin> alright, new question then
[01:29] <Kai_Itaho> nvidia accelerated graphics card driver
[01:29] <FrankT-Qc> then you should have a nvidia control center... If preferences/resolution doesn't work, try you nvidia thing
[01:29] <austin> how do i go about pointing gPodder to my ipod?
[01:29] <rww> FrankT-Qc: Try asking in #ubuntu-devel
[01:29] <Kai_Itaho> found in my restricted drivers
[01:29] <infomomo> Hey guys, Ubuntu 8.10, MP3 player = iRiver T30 here is my System Log output

[01:29] <infomomo> How to access it ?

[01:29] <FloodBot1> infomomo: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[01:30] <e3co> forward I mean
[01:30] <Kai_Itaho> where can I find this nvidia thing?
[01:30] <hlm> e3co, yes I always do that
[01:30] <zer0o> hi guys, ive noticed that doin a search with skype (same parameters) come up with different results when on kubuntu or windows, basically on win it finds hundreds ppl according to the search u've done, on ubuntu it only finds a small amount of ppl and if u look for "girls" in general, only hookers... and thatz really annoying... have u noticed the same? is there something we could do to prevent "naughty results" on our searches?
[01:30] <savvas> Kai_Itaho: which nvidia thing?
[01:30] <Meshezabeel> Here is an image of the problem I'm having with Ubuntu's CD/DVD Creator: http://imagebin.org/38725
[01:30] <Kai_Itaho> a nvidia control center for ubuntu
[01:30] <e3co> Hey people is there a way to restart iptables with a reboot?
[01:30] <FrankT-Qc> Well, if it's install, it's under system/preferences (or I'm wrong and it's under system/administration...)
[01:30] <savvas> Kai_Itaho: System > Administration > Hardware Drivers
[01:30] <e3co> without
[01:30] <FrankT-Qc> if not, give me a sec, i'm checking
[01:30] <rww> !bug | Meshezabeel
[01:31] <hlm> I need help: transmission says port 44966 is closed, but my router has the proper port forwarded, and I dont know how to use firestarter..
[01:31] <e3co> man firestarter
[01:31] <rww> hlm: What version of Ubuntu are you using?
[01:31] <Travis-42> my user is part of a unix group.  When I'm in a folder that has that group set, is there any way to make new folders and files automatically have that group as well?  right now they come out to travis:travis rather than travis:othergroup even though the base directory is otheruser:othergroup
[01:31] <savvas> Kai_Itaho: enable the drivers from there, then reboot. Then System > Administration > Synaptic, search for "nvidia-settings" and install that package. You can run it with: gksu nvidia-settings
[01:31] <e3co> its just like any other firewall, its just not really a firewall
[01:31] <hlm> rww, ubuntu 8.10 intrepid x86
[01:32] <hlm> rww, its desktop not server
[01:32] <e3co> later people... going to the store...
[01:32] <hlm> e3co, cya ltr
[01:32] <Kai_Itaho> I can't find this so called Nvidia Control Center
[01:32] <rww> hlm: Try ufw (command-line) or gufw (GNOME graphical) instead. They're much easier to use and less buggy than firestarter.
[01:32] <savvas> hlm: did you restart your router?
[01:32] <Kai_Itaho> what was strange was i was able to use the monitor today
[01:32] <e3co> yeah thats a good one..
[01:32] <e3co> later
[01:32] <Kai_Itaho> all rww said was plug in the VGA port
[01:33] <Kai_Itaho> I did.. and it worked? O_O?
[01:33] <jdmnynja> Could anyone please help me on getting youtube videos to work without freezing my browser?
[01:33] <Kai_Itaho> now its plugged in after a reboot
[01:33] <hlm> savvas, why would I need to do that? it forwards ports fine without a restart any other time
[01:33] <Kai_Itaho> and it doesn't work
[01:33] <stealthy45> Now, would anyone help ith another agitating issue? I have no sound. alsamixer says No mixer elems found; aplay -l says no soundcards found
[01:33] <rww> !enter | Kai_Itaho
[01:33] <stealthy45> lspci shows it; Multimedia audio controller: Creative Labs SB0400 Audigy2 Value
[01:34] <Kruug> I have some display questions
[01:34] <savvas> hlm: may I ask how do you know that it's open since the program you wish to use says it's closed?
[01:34] <Kai_Itaho> my apologies, I tend to type as if I am out of breath haha XD
[01:34] <nightrid3r> !ask | Kruug
[01:34] <hlm> savvas, I can still download and upload with plenty of connections
[01:34] <savvas> hlm: In my opinion, if you don't know how to use firestarter, there's not much of a point to have it installed - if you don't have a server there, you don't really need it :)
[01:35] <FrankT-Qc> Kai_Itaho : Have you got "NVidia X Server Setup" installed ?
[01:35] <hlm> savvas, I also know from experience of having to open ports
[01:35] <savvas> hlm: from the same port?
[01:35] <savvas> ah I see
[01:35] <CheesyWeasel> Ok, in gedit, is there a way to replace more than one item at a time. Like, let's say I want to replace all numbers with " NUMBER ". Do I have to go through individually, or is there some cool syntax trick that I don't know?
[01:35] <Kai_Itaho> no I do not
[01:35] <hlm> savvas, I run a miniserver on the box im forwarding my port for transmission on
[01:35] <Zzeiss> CheesyWeasel: I don't think so.  But it's easy in Perl or CRM114
[01:35] <Kruug> My issue is that I cannot turn on Visual Effects, and I was wondering if someone could help me get these working.  I would also like to have different background images on each desktop space, so any help there would be appreciated as well.

[01:36] <fearful> CheesyWeasel, on gedit press Ctrl + H or under Search look for replace.
[01:36] <jdmnynja> can anyone help me with getting flash and youtube to run on 64bit?
[01:36] <CheesyWeasel> fearful: *sigh* I know how to replace. Did you read the question?
[01:37] <Meshezabeel> rww: thanks, my main question was whether anyone else had this problem. It could be because I haven't done updates for about 2 weeks and won't be able to until next week once I get onto high speed Internet again.
[01:37] <fxhp> I lost networking after updating...
[01:37] <Kai_Itaho> Frank: SHOULD I? where can I find it?
[01:37] <savvas> hlm: you might have better results with ufw and gufw firewalls as rww suggested before
[01:37] <fxhp> ifconfig shows my statis ip
[01:37] <fearful> CheesyWeasel, sorry misread
[01:37] <hlm> savvas, I am installing them as I type..
[01:37] <hlm> rww, does gufw and/or ufw require super user access?
[01:37] <Kruug> how do I figure out my video card?
[01:37] <spirited> Hi is there a way to move file from windows into ubuntu without having to back those files up to a storage device?
[01:37] <FrankT-Qc> Kai_ITaho : Go to applications, Add/Remove and search for nvidia... it's there

[01:45] <peer`> right, so apparently 8.10 doesn't support my netbook's wireless (Asus EEE PC 1000HD, I don't know what chipset) out of the box. Does anybody know if there are pre-existing Linux drivers for whatever chipset it has or will I need to NDISwrapper it?
[01:45] <hlm> Sal__, I am unsure sorry :(
[01:46] <hlm> mudit, that will tell you whats happeneing on your internet
[01:46] <hlm> happening*
[01:46] <spirited> Daft_Punk: Ok where can I find documentation on how to do that?
[01:46] <merther> Meshezabeel:  Problem is that nothing had been changed.  It had been working and all the items are no longer in the network.  The windows workgroup isn't detected anymore either.
[01:46] <mudit> monit will server the purpose ?
[01:47] <Daft_Punk> since upgrading from hardy to intrepid ive had issues with my wireless being spotty when i use WPA or WPA2 encryption, but WEP works fine... also my torrent client no longer accepts the higher end ports and it wont recognize the port even if i forward it through the router
[01:47] <Meshezabeel> merther: something has to have changed, if not in the software, then the hardware.

[01:48] <Dracey> Could anyone help me drbrick my Linksys via JTAg? :-$
[01:49] <ibuclaw> CheesyWeasel, srry for the delay. Just trying to work it out ;)
[01:49] <CheesyWeasel> ibuclaw: Same.
[01:49] <ibuclaw> CheesyWeasel, go into 'Tools->External Tools'

[01:50] <Sal__> can anyone tell me how to enable the ubuntu vnc server through the command line?
[01:50] <Sal__> i want the one that comes preinstalled
[01:51] <Sal__> not have to install another one ;l
[01:51] <mudit> what I want to do Is to view data that is being received over http, what application should I install ?
[01:51] <glenrock> Sal__: http://www.samlesher.com/ubuntu/ubuntu-704-enabledisable-remote-desktop-from-the-command-line/
[01:51] <ibuclaw> CheesyWeasel, and click 'New'
[01:51] <CheesyWeasel> ibuclaw: K.
[01:51] <ibuclaw> CheesyWeasel, here is an image of what I've done http://img13.imageshack.us/img13/3537/screenshotexternaltoolscs8.png

[01:52] <Sal__> the computer is not infront of me
[01:52] <Fiftyone> hi all i am trying to access an extern drive i took from an old mac i can mount and browse it fine but i cannot access some files how can i gain access to these files
[01:52] <ari_stress> !ipv6
[01:52] <ibuclaw> CheesyWeasel, are you familiar with how sed works ?
[01:52] <CheesyWeasel> ibuclaw: Awesome. Thanks.
[01:52] <glenrock> Sal__: gconftool-2 -s -t bool /desktop/gnome/remote_access/enabled true
[01:52] <CheesyWeasel> ibuclaw: Enough to understand that command.
[01:52] <Sal__> yeah but with no pass blen ?
[01:52] <Sal__> glen*
[01:52] <ari_stress> guys, ipv6 can work in the current network, right? no need to replace switches, network card, etc?
[01:52] <ibuclaw> CheesyWeasel, the bit that caught me out was the "Input/Output" tabs :)
[01:52] <mudit> i want to view data that is being received over http, what application should I install ?
[01:52] <usrlocalbin> mudit: if you are looking for network traffic, you could install wireshark
[01:53] <glenrock> Sal__: are u using an SSH session right now?
[01:53] <nightrid3r> ari_stress yes np
[01:53] <ari_stress> thanks nightrid3r
[01:53] <bazz> so, if i've created a custom init.d script, and added the INIT INFO bit, is there a tool that will create/delete the rc*.d links for me
[01:53] <allquixotic> mudit: wireshark is a bit of a swiss army knife but among its many features is grabbing packets
[01:53] <wolter> hi
[01:53] <mudit> okies
[01:53] <Sal__> glen yes
[01:53] <ibuclaw> CheesyWeasel, once your done, it'll be listed under the Tools tab
[01:54] <nightrid3r> hi wolter
[01:54] <Fiftyone> hi all i am trying to access an external drive i took from an old mac i can mount and browse it fine but i cannot access some files how can i gain access to these files i tried sudo cp -r dir but it says premission denied also tried chown and chmod but that didnt work eather
[01:54] <glenrock> Sal__: if you enable x forwarding for the session you can launch vino-preferences
[01:54] <citorzy> was able to connect to ipv6.google.com without knowing whether my old equip supported it
[01:54] <glenrock> Sal__: ssh -X server
[01:54] <wolter> how can i make evolution add the contacts to my personal address book by putting them as Name Lastname<EMAIL_ADDRESS>??
[01:54] <wolter> hi nightrid3r, haha, my sister and brother are impressed with the ftp thing, thanks!
[01:54] <Sal__> i dont follow
[01:55] <CheesyWeasel> ibuclaw: It's taking forever to execute on a very small document.
[01:55] <nightrid3r> wolter did you have a look at the ebox-platform?
[01:55] <wolter> nightrid3r, no, didn't have time...
[01:55] <lowlycoder> what ubuntu program can open cca files? (they're some type of multimedia file)
[01:55] <wolter> nightrid3r, what is it?
[01:55] <Fiftyone> if someone could help that would be aweaome
[01:55] <omnydevi> i just installed ubuntu 8.10. i installed samba and it seems to be working. on the ubuntu box i just made i have 2 other drives, each with a directory i want the share on. I did chown -R myself share but root wont let go of them. what am i doing wrong?
[01:55] <ari_stress> why it has to be "swiss" army knife, can't it be other countries? :)
[01:55] <nightrid3r> wolter the answer to your samba problem
[01:55] <wolter> Fiftyone, well, i supposed you are accessing a mac fs, but anyway, unix should be able to unlock it, i guess
[01:56] <wolter> Fiftyone, look for hdfs chown in google
[01:56] <wolter> nightrid3r, ah don't worry
[01:56] <wolter> nightrid3r, i am going to use ftp always
[01:56] <CheesyWeasel> ibuclaw: When I try to run it, it removes one number at a time...
[01:56] <Fiftyone> wolter yea if i can copy it to my local disk i can change oqner and premissions but i cant copy
[01:57] <wolter> nightrid3r, i discovered yesterday, now i don't remember how it happened, that you can access your computer as <computer name>.local instead of entering the ip address
[01:57] <peer`> does anybody have experience with normal ubuntu 8.10 installs on ASUS Eee/any netbooks? Please message me. Thanks.
[01:57] <wolter> Fiftyone, what's the error? Permission denied?
[01:57] <nightrid3r> wolter oh i didn't know that
[01:57] <Fiftyone> wolter yes
[01:57] <tuxflavrdwafls> is it possible to get digital speakers to work through a headphone jack?
[01:57] <ScottG489> So my ethernet connection is normally called eth0, what is my wireless one called?
[01:57] <wolter> nightrid3r, try it, its awesome!
[01:58] <CheesyWeasel> ibuclaw: I added a g to the end of the regexp, and it works fine now. Thanks.
[01:58] <peer`> tuxflavrdwafls maybe through an adaptor of some sort
[01:58] <Fiftyone> Peer i am running 810 on eeepc 1000h
[01:58] <Sal__> glenrock ?
[01:58] <ibuclaw> CheesyWeasel, ahh... change the match to this then:    s/[0-9]+/NUMBER/g
[01:58] <int256> any body from kerala
[01:58] <omnydevi> is there anything else required for changing owner of a directory other than chown -R myself directory?
[01:58] <CheesyWeasel> ibuclaw: Yeah, I got it.
[01:59] <CheesyWeasel> ibuclaw++

[01:59] <marsha> Hello
[01:59] <dios_mio2> marsha hi baby
[01:59] <wolter> Fiftyone, you don't have a mac anymore? perhaps you could give a  "$ sudo chmod a-w <drive>" from mac terminal
[01:59] <Uplink> anyone uses ffmpeg in here?
[01:59] <marsha> I just installed 8.10 and cannot connect to unsecured wifi
[01:59] <DIFH-iceroot> !anyone | Uplink
[02:00] <e3co> I'm with ubottu
[02:00] <dgetsman> So it appears that AIDE configuration in ubuntu server 8.04 vs. 8.10 is not interchangeable...  can anybody tell me what the easiest way would be on an 8.04 server distro would be to upgrade to 8.10 from a remote shell command line without taking things down for a long time for existing network services?
[02:00] <Fiftyone> Wolter the mac is toast just have the drive
[02:00] <wolter> Fiftyone, haha
[02:01] <Uplink> i need help converting an wma to mp3 with ffmpeg... pls help :]
[02:01] <nightrid3r> dgetsman sounds like its a production machine, is there a special reason to upgrade
[02:01] <ScottG489> Jason_____: Well that would be for a second ethernet (Which i dont know how you would have more then one, i was looking for wlan0)
[02:02] <dr_dasos> I have downloaded ubuntu 8.10 amd64 iso and am on windows xp. instead of creating a CD, I want to create a "live USB drive" and install from that, is there an easy way to do it on my setup?
[02:03] <sinead> Unetbootin should do the trick to make a bootable USB from an ISO
[02:03] <DIFH-iceroot> dr_dasos: http://www.instantfundas.com/2007/08/install-any-linux-distro-directly-from.html
[02:04] <DIFH-iceroot> dr_dasos: maybe this is what you are looking for
[02:04] <ScottG489> How do I disable the login sound on ubuntu?
[02:04] <Jason_____> ScottG489: some have wlan some have eth1 have a look at your network interfaces ifconfig
[02:04] <Jason_____> mines eth1 usualy
[02:04] <hlm> ScottG489, go to system >prefences sounds
[02:04] <dr_dasos> DIFH-iceroot, looks interesting, reading up on it now, thanks
[02:04] <hlm> sound*
[02:05] <ScottG489> Jason_____: Oh huh, ok well thanks
[02:05] <freegoo> thanks guys u really do help alot of people for nothing in return
[02:05] <ScottG489> Jason_____: I guess that kinda would make sense because like i said above, most computers wouldnt have more then one ehternet
[02:05] <DIFH-iceroot> dr_dasos: works great for me with a notebook which hav no cd-drive and no usb-boot
[02:05] <hlm> ScottG489, when in system>preferences>sound in the sounds tab there is a dialog that says login
[02:05] <infomomo> great
[02:05] <chu_> Good afternoon everyone.
[02:05] <omnydevi> how do you chown a whole drive when chown -R does not work?
[02:06] <usrlocalbin> uplink: does something like this work (without quotes): "ffmpeg -i file.wma file.mp3" work?
[02:06] <ScottG489> hlm: Yea ive been here before, it shows WHAT sounds but I dont see how to disable it..........nvm figured it out
[02:06] <Uplink> usrlocalbin: i got it fixed ty bro
[02:06] <hlm> ScottG489, in alerts and sound effects you will find login, it should say default next to it, click it and then a popup will appear on it select disable, and close it and you will no longer play sounds on login
[02:06] <dr_dasos> DIFH-iceroot: a quick scan makes it seem just like what i was looking for, thanks :)
[02:06] <ScottG489> hlm: It was hiding, i had to click on the disable
[02:07] <hlm> ScottG489, that is correct :-)
[02:07] <dr_dasos> DIFH-iceroot: it also helps to know you've had success with this technique
[02:07] <scientes> hello
[02:07] <ScottG489> hlm: Thanks :) Want to help me get my hibernate working too? Its been my biggest problem
[02:08] <SuPrA> hey
[02:08] <hlm> ScottG489, I have absolutely no clue on how to do that, sorry :-(
[02:08] <e3co> hi
[02:08] <ScottG489> hlm: lol ok well thanks anyways
[02:08] <netsurf3> hi i need some help
[02:08] <netsurf3> my machine randomly stopped suspending
[02:08] <hlm> ScottG489, Glad I could help! :-)
[02:08] <netsurf3> it used to be fine but now just switches to terminal
[02:08] <netsurf3> then nothing
[02:09] <ScottG489> hlm: Why is it that I never hear the logout sound. Does turning off your computer not count?
[02:09] <e3co> netsurf3:  it goes from gnome to terminal... like it just switches
[02:09] <netsurf3> yeah
[02:09] <hlm> ScottG489, evidently I think thats true, because I never hear it either
[02:09] <netsurf3> it does that normally e3co problem is it doesnt enter s3
[02:10] <e3co> netsurf3:  s3 ? You have it boot to cli?
[02:10] <netsurf3> no
[02:10] <netsurf3> gdm
[02:10] <e3co> then you log in and use it
[02:10] <e3co> right
[02:10] <netsurf3> e3co, i am refering to acpi state s3
[02:10] <netsurf3> suspend to ram
[02:10] <zenlunatic> what is a runlevel?
[02:10] <e3co> oh sorry
[02:11] <omnydevi> anyone know how to chown anything besides the home directory?
[02:11] <Fiftyone> I am trying to access some files on an old mac hd. Tje mac is toast all i have is tje hd. I can mount it and access most of the files but tje ones i need are locked. I tried chown didnt work also tried to sudo cp -r newdir and it wont let me copy it. Please help
[02:11] <ZiRiS> So I'm trying to share this folder, see.....
[02:11] <e3co> netsurf3:  sorry I can't help
[02:11] <zenlunatic> omnydevi: believe it requires root access
[02:11] <netsurf3> okay cheers
[02:12] <omnydevi> zenlunatic: i have opened nautilus as root and tried to give permissions to myself. same in terminal, but root will not let go.
[02:12] <ZiRiS> But I can't because I get error: Ask the administrator to add the line "usershare owner only = False"  to the [global] section of the smb.conf to allow this.
[02:12] <Fiftyone> I am trying to access some files on an old mac hd. Tje mac is toast all i have is tje hd. I can mount it and access most of the files but tje ones i need are locked. I tried chown didnt work also tried to sudo cp -r newdir and it wont let me copy it. Please help
[02:12] <ZiRiS> So where do I find this smb.conf, and conversely, how would I share this using a cli and 'sudo'?
[02:13] <e3co> Fiftyone:  I will look again for you
[02:13] <zenlunatic> omnydevi: weird
[02:13] <Fiftyone> e3co thank you
[02:13] <omnydevi> ZiRiS: i just got it up. let me give you the link i just used
[02:14] <omnydevi> i just cant get damn control over my 2 other drives in my box
[02:14] <ZiRiS> omnydevi: Awesome.
[02:14] <ScottG489> hlm: I also lost that animation where the screen gets all bright when i was logging in or turning off my computer
[02:14] <e3co> Fiftyone:  are they time machine backups?
[02:14] <omnydevi> ZiRiS: http://www.jonathanmoeller.com/screed/?p=532
[02:14] <ScottG489> hlm: I think its because i installed compiz
[02:14] <omnydevi> i can see it on my network, i just dont have permissions to my drives. they arent local though
[02:15] <omnydevi> if it werent for that, i think this would have worked
[02:15] <hlm> ScottG489, thats no explanation, what color did it used to be? orange correct?
[02:15] <ZiRiS> omnydevi: Have you tried adding to fstab?
[02:15] <Fiftyone> I cant find anything, i did find someone suggested creating a user acct with the same name as the owner of the mac hd but  i cant start a username with a number
[02:15] <int256> when i press . key in numeric keypad ',' appears. pls help
[02:15] <omnydevi> not yet, was looking at that now. this is the first time ubuntu has seen them without fstab
[02:15] <juanjo_> i need help plz
[02:15] <ZiRiS> nm, I guess fstab doesn't work that way.
[02:15] <omnydevi> was looking into the free3gp thing
[02:15] <DrX> How do you fix GRUB throwing Error 17 Cannot Mount selected partition (I have a dual boot Lin/Win with 2 hard drives)?
[02:15] <omnydevi> er
[02:15] <e3co> Fiftyone:  are the files time machine backups?
[02:15] <omnydevi> ntfs-3g
[02:15] <Fiftyone> e3co no juat my desktop files
[02:16] <Kruug> Okay, ran through ATI driver configuration, and yet it still does not work
[02:16] <DJNomad> drx google reinstalling grub
[02:16] <omnydevi> no matter what i do, root just wont give me rights to crap, even as root
[02:16] <DJNomad> you can do it through live cd
[02:16] <ScottG489> hlm: I thought it was just white. But I think compiz has its own login and logout effect so thats my guess. The screen would slowly get all whited out, and sometimes it would then go inverse and turned black/purpleish
[02:16] <int256> pls answer my question. i am leaving. but will look on irc logs later. so pls continue
[02:17] <DJNomad> i dunno details but i had to do it a week ago
[02:17] <Fiftyone> e3co its the actual drive from my mac lappy the lappy was destroied but i managed to save the hd
[02:17] <hlm> ScottG489, I dont have a clue about that, sorry :-(

[02:22] <tiyowan> Hi. I've been trying to get an Alfa USB wifi adapter working with intrepid. The wifi has a RTL8187 Realtek, and I'm trying to install ndiswrapper to use with it. I've downloaded the .deb packages for ndiswrapper from the package site, but I can't install them. An error occurs notifying me that the files aren't in valid debian archive format. I need to install it manually.
[02:23] <Fiftyone> E3co i dont have an internet connection to use synaptic
[02:23] <ibuclaw> Sal__, you could have a look here: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=541656
[02:23] <ibuclaw> Sal__, that is for "Remote Desktop in Firefox" though. But the same principles apply

[02:27] <ibuclaw> dr3w_, you are better off booting into the Ubuntu LiveCD, and using gparted.
[02:27] <tekteen> xxcue: state?
[02:27] <bullgard4> kushalsejwal: You have a wrong idea about the physical processes. 70% of CPU may lead to a higher CPU fan speed. But if a higher CPU fan speed is right or wrong cannot be answered from 70% CPU load.

[02:27] <jdmnynja> Raylz: I did, and copied the .so file into the plugins but it did nothing.

[02:28] <Raylz> jdmnynja: i look if i can send you the downloadlink
[02:28] <ibuclaw> fearful, sudo apt-get install rpm
[02:29] <nightrid3r> fearful the ooo pack you have is for an rpm based system
[02:29] <salty> fearful, did you install java thru the repositories?
[02:29] <ibuclaw> or what nightrid3r said ;)
[02:29] <e3co> you  can install rpm's on debian based systems?
[02:29] <jdmnynja> Raylz: It says it is released, I just don't think I went around putting it on correctly. I copied the .so file into my created plugins folder in ~/.mozilla/ and started my browser.
[02:29] <bullgard4> kushalsejwal: This is normal.
[02:29] <kushalsejwal> bullgard4: usrlocalbin: My pc is still under warranty so I thought something might be wrong with the CPU fan/ SMPS as its quite old now

[02:29] <kole> I want to give xfce a go.... do i just apt-get install xfce? will it delete anything... change anything other then what i see?
[02:29] <Raylz> jdmnynja: isnt there an installation routine included?
[02:30] <ibuclaw> e3co, you can with the 'alien' package. But it does get messy if you have missing libraries
[02:30] <Sal__> hey i connected to ubuntu with tightvnc
[02:30] <nightrid3r> fearful rpm will get you into trouble
[02:30] <Sal__> but its just a grey screen
[02:30] <Sal__> anybody ever run into this issue>
[02:30] <jdmnynja> Raylz: no, the only method that labs.adobe.com on the alpha gave me was the manual install
[02:30] <ZiRiS> omnydevi: Thank you very much. Worked excellently.
[02:30] <e3co> ibuclaw: thats neat
[02:30] <bullgard4> kushalsejwal: What you have just said does not seem odd to me.
[02:30] <kushalsejwal> bullgard4: but that CPU sounds is continuous and it annoys me. are you sure its normal?
[02:30] <fearful> nightrid3r, ok so download one thats not rpm based
[02:30] <jdmnynja> Raylz: I had to put the .so file into the folder myself, there was no installation.
[02:30] <nightrid3r> fearful yes
[02:30] <ibuclaw> Sal__, have you setup the desktop configuration ?
[02:30] <Sal__> no ?
[02:30] <Raylz> jdmnynja: try this one: http://download.macromedia.com/pub/labs/flashplayer10/libflashplayer-10.0.d21.1.linux-x86_64.so.tar.gz
[02:30] <Sal__> im running this from the command line ibu
[02:31] <bullgard4> kushalsejwal: I experience the same with my Ubuntu computer.
[02:31] <tekteen> anyone know how to change the runlevel in grub? I setup 3 to not boot X but I am having trouble booting it up
[02:31] <fearful> nightrid3r, thats the only one on their site..
[02:31] <jdmnynja> Raylz: that is the one I just had. the only thing it has in it is libflashplayer.so
[02:31] <Sal__> ibuclaw was there anything additional that i needed to setup?
[02:31] <ibuclaw> Sal__, gedit ~/.vnc/xstartup
[02:31] <salty> java6 is in the repositories fearful
[02:31] <kushalsejwal>  bullgard4: okay, then its must be normal only, thanks mate!
[02:31] <usrlocalbin> kushalsejwal: yes, if you are using 70% cpu it will heat up and the fan will spin faster to cool the processor
[02:31] <Sal__> ok..
[02:31] <ibuclaw> Sal__, are you using Gnome, KDE or XFCE?
[02:31] <e3co> Has anyone figured out how to make my whole desktop available on the first time boot of a remastered live cd?
[02:31] <ibuclaw> or other :)
[02:32] <fearful> salty: I have java6
[02:32] <Raylz> jdmnynja: in my OS its installed to /opt/netscape/plugins/libflashplayer.so
[02:32] <e3co> as is
[02:32] <tekteen> fearful: sun-java6-bin
[02:32] <bullgard4> kushalsejwal: Enjoy Ubuntu!
[02:32] <nightrid3r> fearful oxigenoffice is also ooo 3 with some extras, they have deb package
[02:32] <Sal__> should it say so in xstartup ibuclaw ?
[02:32] <Raylz> jdmnynja: try to find out where firefox searches for it
[02:32] <kushalsejwal> bullgard4: Yes I am ;) BTW any teminal command to know the CPU temperature?
[02:32] <Sal__> this is a dedicated server i have that im connecting to
[02:32] <Sal__> ive never physically logged on it
[02:32] <Sal__> only through SSH
[02:32] <jdmnynja> Raylz: right, only i'm using mozilla. It searches for it in the /plugins folder. So I put it in ~/.mozilla/plugins but it still isn't working. i followed the directions to the dot
[02:32] <e3co> Has anyone figured out how to make my whole desktop available on the first time boot of a remastered live cd? as it is when I start it?
[02:33] <Titan8990> I am having a problem and having trouble figuring out how equery works. The manpage for equery would lead be to believe that:   equery d gnome   will tell me all direct dependencies of gnome. Is this not correct?
[02:33] <fearful> tekteen: sun-java6-bin is already the newest version.
[02:33] <nightrid3r> fearful http://sourceforge.net/projects/ooop
[02:33] <ibuclaw> Sal__, this is just an example. But if the gnome-desktop package is installed on your server, you'd have something like this: http://paste.ubuntu.com/119897/plain/
[02:33] <Raylz> jdmnynja: are deps like nss, curl and fontconfig installed?
[02:34] <Kruug> Does anyone know where I can get Xgl for Ubuntu?
[02:34] <tekteen> fearful: what is your problem, all I saw was that you were having issues with java
[02:34] <jdmnynja> Raylz: not sure, how can i find out?
[02:34] <bullgard4> kushalsejwal: No terminal command. But a GNOME applet: 'sensors-applet'.
[02:34] <Raylz> jdmnynja: search em in synaptic
[02:34] <Sal__> ibuclaw: http://pastebin.com/d6dbf1675
[02:34] <Sal__> thats mine
[02:34] <salty> fearful, you can always make a symlink to where your java is located
[02:34] <fearful> tekteen, installing openoffice with the rpm
[02:34] <Sal__> should i change it to what you have?
[02:34] <Titan8990> jdmnynja: or if you want to do it the l33t way:    dpkg -l | grep PACKAGEIMLOOKINGFOR
[02:34] <jdmnynja> Raylz: i'm new to ubuntu, don't know what synaptic is
[02:34] <fearful> tekteen: they came in rpm
[02:35] <koshari> !synaptic
[02:35] <tekteen> fearful: like with alien?
[02:35] <tekteen> !alien
[02:35] <keystr0k> Anyone use lottanzb? recently I've noticed I cannot get a connection greater than 4kb/s!
[02:35] <e3co> what is this alien package?
[02:35] <salty> jdmnynja synaptic is a GUI app for installing software
[02:35] <koshari> !alien
[02:35] <Fiftyone> i am trying to copy some files from a mac hd but when i run sudo cp desktop /newfilename/ i keep getting the error 'omitting directory 'desktop'
[02:35] <fearful> nightrid3r: Whats the difference between the cs or just the normal one
[02:35] <Kruug> !compiz
[02:35] <tekteen> !alien
[02:35] <nightrid3r> e3co something you sould stay away from as far as possible
[02:35] <Fiftyone> Anyone know why
[02:36] <e3co> sorry !alien - yeah I'll pass on getting that crazy
[02:36] <fearful> nightrid3r, oh nvm language
[02:36] <xjunior> when I go to "Add/Remove Applications" it's not showing any application. What can be wrong?
[02:36] <koshari> xjunior try synaptic
[02:36] <e3co> Why not just rebuild the package to a .deb?
[02:36] <genii> Fiftyone: Try an option like -a
[02:36] <tekteen> fearful: did you read the thing on RPMs?
[02:36] <Sal__> ibuclaw even if i change to your settings and restart the vnc server, same issue occurs :l
[02:36] <tekteen> !alien > fearful
[02:36] <jdmnynja> Raylz: what am i looking for again and where do I boot synaptic from?
[02:36] <HermanDE> Anybody have any luck installing funambol on Intrepid?
[02:36] <xjunior> koshari, but, what is wrong with "Add/Remove Applications" ?
[02:37] <koshari> xjunior its very limited,
[02:37] <Raylz> jdmnynja: or try simply sudo apt-get install nss curl fontconfig
[02:37] <fearful> tekteen, thanks
[02:37] <salty> open your terminal and type 'sudo synaptic'
[02:37] <Raylz> jdmnynja: if something is being installed it was missing
[02:37] <mrshts> anyone help me with ubuntu not finding memorystick via my cellphone?
[02:37] <tekteen> fearful: I still think you are best off not using it
[02:37] <xjunior> koshari, ok, but it should be showing the applications anyway...l.
[02:38] <mrshts> i'm a newbie with linux...
[02:38] <hlm> is it possible to try and use an unsupported monitor resolution?
[02:38] <koshari> jdmnynja menu > sytem > admin > synaptic    or "gksudo synaptic" in a command
[02:38] <nightrid3r> mrshts is there an option on your phone to switch it ti something like computer mode
[02:38] <jdmnynja> Raylz: it says E: Couldn't find package nss
[02:38] <mrshts> yeah
[02:38] <fearful> tekteen, well then how can I install openoffice3.0 on xubuntu the ways softpedia only working for ubuntu, I typed repos and all and nothing came up on the update manager
[02:38] <jbuncher> I bought a 1TB external drive, formatted FAT32.  Is there a way to make a backup drive image (COMPRESSED) so that I can format the drive ext3 but still restore it to the fat32 state if I want to return it in the future?
[02:38] <mrshts> there  is mass storage.... i've used it
[02:38] <koshari>  jdmnynja you may need to add extra repositorys
[02:38] <tekteen> fearful: I can look it up
[02:39] <koshari> jbuncher yes with partimage
[02:39] <jdmnynja> koshari: and those are?
[02:39] <fearful> tekteen, would help a lot been busting my head and nothing
[02:39] <koshari> jdmnynja universe , multiverse , medibuntu ect
[02:39] <ibuclaw> Sal__, are you still here?
[02:39] <jdmnynja> koshari: can I install them through the terminal?
[02:39] <mrshts> u'm running 8.04 and trying to swap files with a sonyericsson using m2 card(sony memory stick)
[02:39] <Sal__> yeah
[02:39] <Sal__> i think its cause theres no session
[02:39] <Sal__> how can i startup a session ibuclaw ?
[02:39] <jbuncher> koshari:  can you give an example command?  I'm dl'ing it now
[02:40] <jmsthing678_> Hello everyone
[02:40] <koshari> jbuncher do you have synaptic open?
[02:40] <Raylz> jdmnynja: libnss3-dev
[02:40] <chu_> I wish it would hurry up and be April already :p
[02:40] <jbuncher> koshari, I just installed via apt-get
[02:40] <jmsthing678_> Is there anywone who can help me with my graphics issues?
[02:40] <tekteen> fearful: what is wrong with the softpedia tutorial
[02:40] <Raylz> jdmnynja: sudo apt-get install libnss3-dev curl fontconfig
[02:40] <nightrid3r> !anyone | jmsthing678_
[02:40] <koshari> jbuncher synaptic is effectively jsut a gui front end for apt
[02:40] <jdmnynja> Raylz: all right I installed libnss3-dev
[02:41] <jdmnynja> Raylz: okay, I have them all installed now.
[02:41] <jbuncher> koshari, yes, I know :)  Does partimage compress "on-the-fly" or does it need to create the entire partition image before compressing?
[02:41] <Raylz> jdmnynja: does it work yet?
[02:41] <THX^>  whats the best way to dual boot with winxp?
[02:41] <jdmnynja> let me try
[02:41] <xxcue> i dont know what hardware works well with linux in general ...wish i knew id build boxes for others
[02:42] <jmsthing678_> whenever I'm in a full screen game everything looks like it has been through a cheese greater. Any ideas?
[02:42] <Myrtti> !hardware | xxcue
[02:42] <jdmnynja> Raylz: no. the little dots twirl in the video screen then it freezes
[02:42] <xxcue> the list ive been to is worthless
[02:42] <Raylz> jdmnynja: so at least the plugin loads?
[02:42] <koshari> jbuncher it will compress on the fly
[02:42] <THX^> Is setting up a dual boot usually an easy process?
[02:43] <koshari> THX^ for most people
[02:43] <jbuncher> koshari: any idea how much space is needed for an image of a 1TB drive where ~500MB have been used?
[02:43] <jdmnynja> Raylz: whenever I go into my browser and search i see shockwave flash 9.0 r999 and shockwave flash 10.0 d21
[02:43] <xxcue> use vmware player or workstation
[02:43] <jmsthing678_> THX dual boot should be easy as long as you ahve a drive/ partition free
[02:43] <THX^> will the ubuntu 8.1 cd set up a partition?
[02:44] <koshari> jbuncher that would depend on the content, partimage used gzip so you could compress it with gzip and it should give you a rough idea,
[02:44] <jmsthing678_> THX it can but you need to make sure you are careful
[02:44] <ravious> Would anyone happen to know where the configuration files for the nfs server are stored?
[02:44] <koshari> text and bins will compress well, mp3, xvids, ect wont
[02:44] <mrshts> anyone help with ubuntu not finding my m2 card?
[02:44] <genii> jbuncher: If you use dd on a drive/partition it copies everything including dead areas
[02:44] <Raylz> jdmnynja: at about:plugins ?
[02:44] <jmsthing678_> THX you wouldnt want to accidentally destroy your old os
[02:45] <THX^> jmsthing678, yes, thats what im worried about
[02:45] <jdmnynja> Raylz: i have no about plugins area. I have to go to tools, addons, and then select the plugins tab
[02:45] <koshari> jbuncher oh and the file would be a lot less than the amount used, if the rest of the partition as spare
[02:45] <jmsthing678_> THX is your old OS windows?
[02:45] <THX^> win xp
[02:45] <mrshts> i have a 500gig usb hdd that has no problems i dont know why it wont mount and or find the card in my phone... works for other phones
[02:45] <nightrid3r> THX^ backup important stuff first
[02:45] <carl-m> I'm having a wierd issue - when I try to ssh from my ubuntu laptop to my ubunto desktop, it hangs after th authentication
[02:45] <tsmith> Hi, I'm running 8.10 x86_64. i have a dvd drive with dma enabled, but when I test the read speed with hdparm I'm getting rates of less that 1mb/s. tried with different discs, same thing. it takes hours to rip a dvd. i thought that I had configd my kernel incorrectly, but i get the same result in the livecd. any ideas?
[02:45] <jmsthing678_> THX then use the hardware manager to create a new partition and install to that
[02:46] <Raylz> jdmnynja: is the old one deactivated?
[02:46] <jbuncher> genii, koshari:  thanks for the info.  I've made images with dd before, but I've never used partimage.  Does the "restore" function of partimage need to have the partitions already created?
[02:46] <THX^> hardware manager is on the ubuntu cd?
[02:46] <smokeytheman> you guys rock!
[02:46] <jdmnynja> Raylz: i just deactivated it, but now I don't even see a video on youtube.
[02:46] <jmsthing678_> THX no in windows xp
[02:46] <koshari>  jbuncher yes
[02:46] <jdmnynja> Raylz: where the video should be there is nothing.
[02:47] <mrshts> is there a forum dedicated to my problem i could check out?
[02:47] <Raylz> jdmnynja: ok, go to preferences and the forth section in the navigation
[02:47] <nightrid3r> mrshts i think its the phone that gives the problem
[02:48] <jbuncher> koshari:  I guess my last question would be, is there a program (fdisk, gparted) that is capable of making a 1TB fat32 partition?
[02:48] <THX^> jmsthing678, where is that in xp?
[02:48] <smokeytheman> if any of you do any work with wine and would be interested in another compatable software, it isn't exactly open source but you can use counter-strike source non-steam and it works, decent fps too
[02:48] <idris> hi i need some help i am new to ubuntu i dont know y but when i minimize a page i dont see it on my menu bar
[02:48] <Raylz> jdmnynja: i guess its called applications
[02:48] <jmsthing678_> THX right click on the my computer icon and click mangage

[02:48] <THX^> I see

[02:49] <idris> can anyone help me
[02:49] <xjkx> after i installed a new distribution in other partition, ubuntu acted weird, now ubuntu says "could not open hal" or something like that. and my apt doesn't work, it says  /var/cache/apt/archives/partial doesn't exist, and it really doesn't, in fact not even /var/cache/apt exists, how can i fix it
[02:49] <Raylz> there try setting it manually to the folder youve installed it too
[02:49] <Raylz> s/too/to/
[02:49] <mrshts> prolly just need to get a card reader.
[02:49] <metalpres> does anyone know for sure that removing the pulseaudio package, which also forces the removal of the ubuntu-desktop package wont cause any problems?  I found a thread on the forums saying it can be done but I just want to confirm it with someone who knows for sure before i fubar my system trying.
[02:49] <idris> thank u
[02:49] <idris> so much
[02:49] <koshari> idris you must have removed the notification are off the panel
[02:49] <mrshts> thanks for taking the time. later guys
[02:49] <Raylz> jdmnynja: i had to set this in my debian manually too
[02:49] <jdmnynja> Raylz: i found two
[02:49] <idris> how do i open notifications
[02:50] <xjunior> when I go to "Add/Remove Applications" it's not showing any application. What can be wrong?
[02:50] <Raylz> jdmnynja: yep, set both
[02:50] <jdmnynja> Raylz: well if i get this fixed it is my last problem for a while lol. set both?
[02:50] <Raylz> jdmnynja: set both to the installed plugin
[02:50] <THX^> jmsthing678, I see it says "computer management" utility but no partition option
[02:50] <koshari>  idris: you can add items to the panel by rightclicking a vacant space on the panel and add to panel
[02:50] <jdmnynja> Raylz: i dont understand what you mean set both to the installed plug in.
[02:51] <Gawdly> can anyone help? running x64 8.10 but no audio in flash with USB headset... I've tried everything I could find on it but no luck.
[02:51] <jmsthing678_> THX you have to click on your hard drive in the hardware manager
[02:51] <Raylz> jdmnynja: in the drop down menu you can set an other application
[02:51] <Gawdly> is this a common ubuntu problem?
[02:51] <Royall> How do I run nautilus under root privliges (ie 'sudo nautilus'), but still stay in my own user's directories?
[02:51] <jdmnynja> Raylz: aye i see shockwave flash, movie player, or use other.
[02:52] <koshari> Royall you cannot,
[02:52] <THX^> jmsthing678, I see no hardware manager
[02:52] <Raylz> jdmnynja: exactly, now navigate to ~/.mozilla/plugins and choose the .so file
[02:52] <jmsthing678_> THX hold on Im gettin on my xp machine
[02:52] <nightrid3r> Gawdly flash on 64 bit is flacky at best
[02:52] <jdmnynja> Raylz: okay. what after that
[02:52] <Raylz> jdmnynja: both set?
[02:52] <THX^> ok jmsthing678
[02:53] <Raylz> jdmnynja: then close the window and restart firefox
[02:53] <jdmnynja> Raylz: one moment
[02:53] <jmsthing678_> THX ok so in the computer management window you click on disk management
[02:53] <phobiac> The flash alpha for 64 bit from adobe works fine for me.
[02:53] <tsmith> Hi, I'm running 8.10 x86_64. i have a dvd drive with dma enabled, but when I test the read speed with hdparm I'm getting rates of less that 1mb/s. tried with different discs, same thing. it takes hours to rip a dvd. i thought that I had configd my kernel incorrectly, but i get the same result in the livecd. any ideas?
[02:53] <Gawdly> nightrid3r: there's no work around?
[02:53] <phobiac> It's been a memory hog a few times, but otherwise it works.
[02:53] <Royall> Ok, then, the other approach: When I try to mount an external drive of mine via nautilus, it says I'm not priviledged. But when I try to mount it in terminal (ie 'sudo mount /media/[re]drive') it says that directory doesn't exist.
[02:53] <THX^> ok, jmsthing678_
[02:53] <phobiac> Gawdly: Try the flash alpha provided by adobe.
[02:53] <jdmnynja> Raylz: i have nothing showing up
[02:53] <jmsthing678_> THX that will be under storage tab
[02:54] <Gawdly> they only link to the i386 version
[02:54] <nightrid3r> phobiac says the alpha from adobe works fine on 64 bit
[02:54] <koshari> Royall use fstab to mount the drive
[02:54] <Raylz> jdmnynja: what firefox version are you using?
[02:54] <THX^> jmsthing678_, I see that
[02:54] <phobiac> Gawdly: http://labs.adobe.com/technologies/flashplayer10/
[02:54] <jmsthing678_> THX that is how you manage partitions in windows xp you might have to click around a bit to get it to work
[02:54] <jdmnynja> raylz: version 3.0.6
[02:54] <phobiac> Oh wait, wrong link.
[02:54] <Royall> koshari: fstab is a command?
[02:54] <slide> ooook this is freaking weird
[02:54] <slide> my screen just inverted it seems
[02:54] <slide> color wise
[02:54] <Raylz> jdmnynja: hm, ok, i rly dont know what to do then
[02:54] <phobiac> Gawdly: http://labs.adobe.com/downloads/flashplayer10.html Linux 64 is at the bottom.
[02:55] <Gawdly> thx dude
[02:55] <Raylz> jdmnynja: must be some flash issue
[02:55] <slide> everything is like the reverse of the normal colors
[02:55] <Raylz> jdmnynja: maybe grahics
[02:55] <koshari> Royall its a config file for mount
[02:55] <jdmnynja> raylz: you think it could be the graphics card?
[02:55] <phobiac> Gawdly: Do you know how to install it? It's a manual install.
[02:55] <xjkx> after i installed a new distribution in other partition, ubuntu acted weird, now gnome says on startup "could not open hal" or something like that. and my apt doesn't work, it says  /var/cache/apt/archives/partial doesn't exist, and it really doesn't, in fact not even /var/cache/apt exists, how can i fix it
[02:55] <Raylz> jdmnynja: did you install the driver yet?
[02:55] <jdmnynja> Raylz: let me try.
[02:55] <THX^> jmsthing678_, "convert to dynamic disk"?
[02:55] <Royall> koshari: I already added an entry to fstab, but it doesn't seem to mount when I log off and then log on again
[02:56] <jmsthing678_> Now as I was saying  before, Whenever I am in a full screen game everything looks like it has been through a cheese grater
[02:56] <jdmnynja> Raylz: i may not have, i was having issues installing it earlier
[02:56] <slide> wow that was weird
[02:56] <Raylz> jdmnynja: the new flash version changed the way it renders videos
[02:56] <slide> hey everyone hit Super+M
[02:56] <Raylz> jdmnynja: what grahpiccard are you using?
[02:56] <koshari> Royall dont log off/onn use mount -a
[02:57] <xxcue> getting bored yet?
[02:57] <Royall> slide: hehe weird
[02:57] <slide> Royall, yea, really freaked me out
[02:57] <slide> hahah
[02:57] <slide> didnt mean to do it
[02:57] <slide> Super+N does only the current window
[02:57] <THX^> jmsthing678_, I don't see any option to create new partition, I'll research it a bit, thanks
[02:57] <jdmnynja> raylz: not sure. i had to swap it out when i installed my OS. its a PNY something.
[02:57] <Royall> koshari: only lets me do it under root, then: fuse: failed to access mountpoint /media/[re]drive: No such file or directory
[02:57] <koshari> i like super e
[02:57] <jdmnynja> Raylz: i have a geforce fx sitting here I need to put in.
[02:58] <jmsthing678_> THX sry I dont know very much beyond that point
[02:58] <THX^> np
[02:58] <koshari> Royall you have a permissions issue then
[02:58] <Royall> koshari: where do I change that?
[02:58] <Raylz> jdmnynja: try system -> System Settings -> Hardware
[02:58] <linkinx64> what the name of the channel for Jaunty?
[02:58] <koshari> whats the placeholder dir permissions?
[02:58] <xxcue> is anyone running ubuntu on current hardware?
[02:58] <Zlogger> As usual, im here with a stupid question.  Right now i have:  p = current_user.posts   -- Can i order by Post's weight?  Something like current_user.posts(:order => "weight ASC") ?
[02:58] <jbuncher> koshari, can gparted create and format 1TB partitions in fat32?
[02:58]  * Royall tries a restart
[02:58] <jmsthing678_> Now as I was saying  before, Whenever I am in a full screen game everything looks like it has been through a cheese grater. Surely  SOMEONE knows how to fix this?
[02:59] <nightrid3r> THX^ you can use the gparted iso to resize your windows partition to make room for ubuntu
[02:59] <koshari> jbuncher yes
[02:59] <Zlogger> in the console, it does not change the order at all
[02:59] <carpii__> well 'a cheese grater' tells us nothing
[02:59] <jbuncher> koshari, thanks
[02:59] <shoterboyx> can any1 help me with my sound driver?
[02:59] <koshari> jbuncher it cant create the parttitions but can back them up, use gparted to create the partition,
[02:59] <shoterboyx> there is no sound
[02:59] <jdmnynja> Raylz: there is no system settings hardware options
[03:00] <linkinx64> I am getting a weird sound everytime i hit the end of a list...for example scrolling down...and when it hits the end it makes a weird noise fomr the internal speaker
[03:00] <jmsthing678_> carpii__ thats exactly what it looks like everything loosk shredder and out of order its very difficult to see anything but colors of what Im supposed to be seein g
[03:00] <koshari> jbuncher its not a great ide to use fat32 for a 1tb partition
[03:00] <templaedhel> So i have windows on my hard disk, i know because im using it rihgt now  and before i installed it i had a / and a /home partiton for ubuntu but now, when i go to install ubuntu (grub restore didnt work) it doesnt detect ANY partitons, it just sees empty HD btw my data is backed up, so no need to worry about that
[03:00] <carpii__> jms, check your video drivers are correct
[03:01] <jmsthing678_> carpii__ drivers are fine
[03:01] <shoterboyx> can some1 help me with my sound driver.......there is no sound on my ubuntu pls help
[03:01] <Raylz> jdmnynja: there must be some hardware or restricted hardware or restricted drivers in the system menu
[03:01] <Raylz> jdmnynja: im using a german version of gnome, sry
[03:02] <shoterboyx> raylz do u know how to fix the sound problem?
[03:02] <linkmaster03> how do I scroll up in a 'screen' session?
[03:02] <carpii__> jms, what video card, what machine? youve not really told us anything we can possibly use to help you
[03:02] <Royall> Nope, nothing
[03:02] <phobiac> templaedhel: Sounds like you need to repartition.
[03:02] <Raylz> shoterboyx: what kind of sound problem?
[03:02] <jbuncher> koshari, I know, I plan to format to ext3, but I want to be able to restore the drive to its original state should I need to do so, hence the partition backup and the need to make a 1TB fat32 partition
[03:02] <shoterboyx> i have no sound
[03:02] <shoterboyx> nothing at all
[03:02] <Raylz> shoterboyx: pls paste the output of lspci
[03:02] <shoterboyx> what that?
[03:03] <Raylz> shoterboyx: prints out your hardware connected to pci
[03:03] <bangky> linkmaster03: "pg up"
[03:03] <shoterboyx> from where?
[03:03] <shoterboyx> i not very sure
[03:03] <jmsthing678_> carpii__ Acer Aspire 6530 notebook Radeon HD 3200 graphics card athalon x2 processor dual 1.9 ghz 4 gb of DDR2 RAM
[03:03] <jdmnynja> Raylz: i'm going to put my nvidia card in.
[03:03] <Raylz> shoterboyx: open a terminal
[03:03] <linkmaster03> bangky: that's what I would've thought but it doesn't work
[03:03] <jdmnynja> Raylz: maybe the card is an issue.
[03:03] <Royall> How do I give myself permissions to mount drives?
[03:03] <bangky> linkmaster03: it does for me though :s
[03:03] <Raylz> jdmnynja: ye, i cant think of anything else
[03:03] <shoterboyx> ok terminal is out raylz
[03:04] <linkmaster03> bangky: i'm ssh'd into a box and in a screen on that box, maybe ssh is the reason?
[03:04] <Raylz> shoterboyx: type in lspci
[03:04] <Raylz> shoterboyx: paste the output to http://www.rafb.net/paste/
[03:04] <Raylz> and send me the link
[03:04] <bangky> linkmaster03: possibly. try checking your terminal emulation type
[03:04] <shoterboyx> done
[03:04] <Zlogger> Is something like User.posts(:order => "weight ASC")  possible?
[03:05] <Zlogger> in the console, it does not change the order at all
[03:05] <Raylz> shoterboyx: did you paste it yet?
[03:05] <carpii__> jms, does it happen if you turn of video effects / compiz ?
[03:05] <shoterboyx> giv me a min

[03:21] <rww> echinos: It's probably in the output of "lshw". Goodness knows everything else is.
[03:21] <smuikas> apparently the packages don't automagically add the AddType lines
[03:21] <smuikas> ;D
[03:21] <Imunalia> eval: 1 ./ati-installer.sh :permission denied
[03:21] <skel> Vande: you can screenshare with something like dimdim.com
[03:21] <peer`> what does the ls in lshw stand for

[03:23] <da_sharp> HI all, I have a nforce 4 chipset and nvidia 6600 GT graphic card,when I try to install ubuntu 64 bit using the live cd, my display won't show up or it shows vareityies of colors on screen after booting from cd, but the sounds are audible the boot sounds etc. How do I fix display and install ubuntu?
[03:23] <skel> Vande: off-topic =]
[03:24]  * da_sharp is looking for help
[03:24] <skel> da_sharp: did you try different video boot options?
[03:24] <Vande> skel: sorry about the OT remark then.
[03:24] <Imunalia> You can try pulling your vid card and use the onboard video till ubuntu is running then install the nvidia driver
[03:24] <skel> Vande: np, I think they just try and keep it related to Ubuntu as much as possible in here :)
[03:24] <da_sharp> Imunalia, I don't have any onboard card
[03:25] <da_sharp> only graphic card. So no display if no graphic card.
[03:25] <da_sharp> ASUS A8N SLI Deluxe :)
[03:25] <Imunalia> um, borrow a friends card LOL
[03:25] <da_sharp> :-(
[03:26] <da_sharp> The safe mode is also not available in the mode options.
[03:26] <da_sharp> :-(
[03:26] <Imunalia> Has anyone install thed ATI drivers the hard way? I am having all sorts of trouble trying to get it to install properly. I am running the terminal as sudo, and I am able to get the packadge to decompress but then it errors with the following line
[03:26] <Imunalia> eval: 1 ./ati-installer.sh :permission denied
[03:26] <Imunalia> is it running in SLI mode?
[03:26] <da_sharp> chmod +x ati-installer.sh
[03:26] <da_sharp> :P
[03:27] <kdub> anyone use an att 3g mobile broadband card with linux?
[03:27] <chuckf> da_sharp, you may need to get the alternate cd and install from it
[03:27] <Imunalia> many thankyous :D
[03:27] <peer`> 8.10 tells me that it already has installed the wifi drivers for my card (onboard on an asus Eee 1000HD, Atheros AR242x 802.11abg) but I can't use wireless at all. It's as if the system doesn't acknowledge that I have a working wifi chipset or anything. When I click on the help button under the "Hardware Drivers" window (with the Atheros drivers selected), it mentiones Restricted Drivers. How can I get my Wifi to work without using N
[03:27] <tritium> Better yet, don't use the ati installer.  Install the ubuntu-packaged fglrx.
[03:27]  * Imunalia tries it
[03:27] <leo12> TEM ALGUM BRASILEIRO AKI?????
[03:27] <tritium> !br | leo12
[03:27] <da_sharp> chuckf, Alternate CD is one in which the installer looks like debian installer?

[03:28] <junior6054> i need help with vuze?
[03:28] <kdub> use in portugese == use in english? weird
[03:28] <da_sharp> But there are equal chances that after the install my desktop won't get the X started chuckf
[03:28] <junior6054> can anyone help
[03:28] <Daft_Punk> I am trying to update Vuze manually because in the repos it is out of date and it keeps asking to update on startup of the program. I tried updating through the program and downloading the jar through the azureus site and applying it to the installation folder, but it doesnt work. help please. thanks
[03:28] <IndyGunFreak> peer`: is this a reasonably new install?
[03:28] <rww> da_sharp: debian-installer can do graphical installs now ;)
[03:28] <da_sharp> Yeah
[03:28] <RockmanFL> Need help getting ubuntu 8.10 with Samba to be seen on current windows home network....3 machines with 2 being an XP and Vista machine...I can ping ubuntu with success but shared folders do not show on either end.
[03:28] <peer`> IndyGunFreak, about an hour ago, no modifications made since. it's just been charging on my desk since
[03:28] <chuckf> da_sharp, it's probably your best option as it may just be that the live cd cannot detect your video correctly
[03:28] <IndyGunFreak> peer`: go to system/admin/hardware drivers
[03:28] <da_sharp> ubottu safe mode install
[03:29] <da_sharp> :P
[03:29] <Imunalia> didn't work, it only exhists for the brief moment when the file is decompressed
