[12:01] <endo> `Nick: why does that make it bad?
[12:01] <legalsized> should I boot off the live cd and see if I have a connection?
[12:01] <Lunks> could someone help me running mldonkey on startup? "run at startup" checkbox didn't work.
[12:01] <nich0s> Hey all, I have a problem when I attempt to boot, I keep getting this very low resolution error message telling me that xserver isn't configured correctly. Can someone help me.
[12:01] <Ricket> jo3nix: okay so I found a thread which said to install Emerald and then run "compiz --replace -c emerald --replace" - this works, but of course after a reboot it's back to no borders. how do I make that permanent?
[12:01] <littlegator> pricechild: I think they're removed, but what was the command to install ubuntu-desktop again?
[12:01] <knightz_> i even got ms office 2007 to work in ubuntu
[12:01] <Jordan_U> nich0s, What did you do to try to fix the resolution?
[12:02] <`Nick> endo: didn't say it does
[12:02] <hacosta> this is the whole message
[12:02] <PriceChild> littlegator, "sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop" but that may take us to where we were...

[12:02] <Stormx2> legalsized: Not really. I'm trying to work through the issue with you...

[12:02] <hacosta> gnome-system-tools [2.14.0-0ubuntu11 (now)]
[12:02] <kitche> umm can someone mute hacosta
[12:02] <nich0s> I believe an intel
[12:02] <Stormx2> legalsized: You are connected via an ethernet cable to your router, yeah?
[12:02] <nich0s> It's in an IBM Netfinity.
[12:03] <Jordan_U> nich0s, Have you tried installing the -intel driver?
[12:03] <Ricket> lol hacosta got owned.
[12:03] <nich0s> Jordan_U: I wouldn't even begin to know how.
[12:03] <knoppix> hey everyone. I bought a new hp desktop with integrated 802.11 support and installed kubuntu on it, iwconfig lists wlan0 and wmaster0 as two interfaces that support scanning. iwlist scan shows the correct essid. But i am not able to get an ip. Rebootng into vista gets me an ip, so i am completely lost. can anyone help me out
[12:03] <knightz_> there is a common mistake with dell b130 wireless
[12:03] <Jordan_U> nich0s, Ok, do you know how to install packages in Ubuntu?
[12:03] <knightz_> don't use bmwl5.inf
[12:04] <nich0s> Jordan_U: Not from prompt./
[12:04] <legalsized> yes
[12:04] <legalsized> connected via ethernet cable
[12:04] <legalsized> to router
[12:04] <endo> `Nick: what were you trying to get across then? that I can run it in wine :P
[12:04] <PriceChild> !paste > hacosta
[12:04] <`Nick> endo: that it slows down your computer like ... um nevermind :)
[12:04] <Stormx2> legalsized: Okay. Sounds like your network just needs a little configuration under ubuntu.
[12:05] <alex-weej> knoppix: which version of Ubuntu?
[12:05] <legalsized> ok
[12:05] <knightz_> how can i increase the wireless mtu'S?
[12:05] <Jordan_U> nich0s, Oh, forgot you are stuck at a terminal, ok, from a terminal run these commands to install and configure the driver first: "sudo apt-get install xserver-xorg-video-intel " then run "sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg -phigh" and choose "intel" as the driver
[12:05] <Ricket> I am not sure of this terminology, but how do I make the command "compiz --replace -c emerald --replace" permanent? That command only replaces compiz for the current session, and after a reboot, the old compiz with problems is back...
[12:05] <legalsized> I've got adress, network and gateway typed in
[12:05] <knoppix> dapper
[12:05] <nich0s> Jordan_U: I'll try that.  Be right back.
[12:06] <knoppix> oh sorry..fiesty
[12:06] <legalsized> sorry address, netmask and gateway
[12:06] <Stormx2> legalsized: System > Administration >  Network. Enter your password when prompted. Make sure "wired connection" has a check in the box on the left.
[12:06] <knightz_> how can i increase the wireless mtu'S? anybody?
[12:06] <Jordan_U> knoppix, Do you know what chipset the card uses?
[12:06] <knoppix> ralink
[12:06] <legalsized> ok
[12:07] <alex-weej> knoppix: if you're using Feisty, you should probably be using NetworkManager, not messing around with iwconfig - what happens when you try to connect to an AP via NetworkManager?
[12:07] <Stormx2> legalsized: Also check that the info you entered (IP, subnet mask, gateway) is the same as under windows (Start > Run > "cmd" > OK > "ipconfig" > enter)
[12:07] <legalsized> ahhh.
[12:07] <legalsized> be right back
[12:07] <knightz_> in windows I can increase the power but how do I do tat in ubuntu?
[12:07] <alex-weej> knoppix: pm me your answer
[12:07] <knoppix> it doesnt connect.. i can view the network essid.. but when i try to connect it fails
[12:07] <alex-weej> knoppix: same problem as me with ralink, pm me
[12:08] <kitche> knightz_: man iwconfig will tell you how since I haven't played with the radio stuff in my wireless in a while
[12:08] <danfg> daan: found it! i just have to use update-java-alternatives to choose which java to use, yay! thanks :)
[12:08] <knoppix> any ideas?
[12:08] <littlegator> pricechild: Do you have any idea?
[12:08] <nich0s> Jordan_U: I entered that information, shall I reboot?
[12:08] <alex-weej> knoppix: do you know how to check your kernel log?
[12:08] <endo> `Nick: yeah, I see what you're trying to say. OK. But still, I really like the interface
[12:08] <PriceChild> littlegator, remove those openoffice packages, then try apt-get upgrade
[12:08] <knoppix> yes
[12:08] <PriceChild> and dist-upgrade
[12:08] <endo> `Nick: Can't really find anything that compares
[12:08] <knightz_> hm.. ok
[12:08] <arnath> hi, i just installed a 500 gig (external) harddrive, now i have 2 questions: is it wise to have it as one partition? (cause i read you could run out of inodes or something if you had too many small files?)
[12:08] <Jordan_U> nich0s, You can either reboot or just run: sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart
[12:09] <alex-weej> knoppix: check it, there will probably be references to association/authentication timing out
[12:09] <alex-weej> knoppix: and use my name when replying :P
[12:09] <arnath> and secondly, atm it is one big ext3 partition, but i seem to have lost 31 gig, my disk usage analyzer is telling me i only have 469.3 gig free
[12:09] <BlueParrot> evening all, I got wireless working using WEP , but I need it to work using WPAPSK, tried some howto's but they all rely on using iwconfig
[12:09] <BlueParrot> and that fails when I try to set the essid
[12:09] <furenku>  i want to compile it from src, cos from synaptic (ubuntustudio) i get no dssi supporthi... when i try to open rosegarden i get many rosegarden processes running, but not a single one opens... when i run "rosegarden" in terminal, there is an eternal cycle in the messages output... any ideas?
[12:10] <littlegator> arnath:are you positive the hard drive is 500 GB? Normally, a hard drive is a bit less than what they advertise it as
[12:10] <knoppix> alex-weej: yeah i can see the logs. the only thing related to the wireless is ADDRCONF(NETDEV_CHANGE) wlan0 :link becomes ready
[12:10] <knightz_> why does gcc work in ubuntu? (anybody)
[12:10] <alex-weej> knoppix: do you know which driver you're currently using?
[12:10] <OmegaCenti> [2007-07-05 17:05:38]  <EADG> I have vsftpd up and running, works great on my network, OmegaCenti is trying to log in, but it's a no-go. port 21 is forwarded on the router... any other suggestions?
[12:10] <legalsized> Stormx2!  That worked
[12:10] <arnath> littlegator: when i did fdisk -l before i partitioned, it said 500.1 gig
[12:11] <legalsized> Thanks! I have a connection!
[12:11] <nich0s> Jordan_U: Hey! Awesome! It's working now... I did get a message saying, "Failed to Initialize HAL"
[12:11] <littlegator> arnath: okay I was just making sure
[12:11] <legalsized> Wahoo!
[12:11] <joj1> question please
[12:11] <Stormx2> legalsized: Cool :D
[12:11] <nich0s> Jordan_U: Do you know what that means?
[12:11] <knightz_> why does gcc work in ubuntu? (anybody)
[12:11] <kitche> knightz_: what do you mean?
[12:11] <alex-weej> knightz_: why wouldn't it work?
[12:11] <Stormx2> knightz_: Because if it didn't people would be very annoyed?
[12:11] <arnath> littlegator: could it be that it is too much for 1 partition?
[12:11] <Senesence> How do I set custom icon for an entire filetype?
[12:11] <knoppix> alex-weej: rt73usb
[12:11] <Slart> knightz_: I would guess because lots of people made an effort to make it work
[12:11] <alex-weej> knoppix: the driver bundled with current Feisty is broken.
[12:11] <littlegator> arnath: I really have no clue as to what it could be.. I'm a newbie >_>
[12:11] <endo> what video driver do I want enabled to run compiz fusion?
[12:11] <arnath> ah :p
[12:12] <furenku> hi... when i try to open rosegarden i get many rosegarden processes running, but not a single one opens... when i run "rosegarden" in terminal, there is an eternal cycle in the messages output... any ideas?
[12:12] <knoppix> alex-weej: sp where do i get the one to use?
[12:12] <alex-weej> knoppix: do you need roaming support (i.e. do you want each user to be able to choose a network to connect to via network manager?)
[12:12] <knightz_>  I can't configure or install stuff from src and it keeps telling me that can't find gcc
[12:12] <knoppix> nope
[12:12] <arnath> anyone? -> 500 gig drive is showing up as 469 gig free space (one partition in ext3)
[12:12] <knoppix> alex-weej: nope
[12:12] <alex-weej> knoppix: ok then it's easy
[12:12] <Stormx2> knightz_: sudo apt-get install build-essential
[12:12] <Jordan_U> nich0s, I am not sure but it may mean that you will have problems with things like auto mounting external drives when they are plugged in
[12:12] <alex-weej> knoppix: sudo apt-get remove network-manager
[12:12] <IndyGunFreak> knightz: sudo apt-get install build-essential
[12:12] <nich0s> Jordan_U: OK, thanks again!
[12:12] <knightz_> thanks
[12:12] <Stormx2> I win IndyGunFreak :D
[12:13] <Jordan_U> nich0s, np

[12:14] <knightz_> hm.. ok
[12:14] <GWhite> guys I have a 5 meg broadband connection yet almost all divx streaming media seems to start for a while working perfectly then it stops and continues to buffer only to play nothing
[12:14] <IndyGunFreak> knightz: thats in the repos isn't it?
[12:14] <alex-weej> knoppix: the rt2x00 project provide the ralink drivers to the kernel, we're just getting a "legacy" driver for the rt73 chipset that they replaced with the more generic rt2x00 package
[12:14] <joj1> anybody there willing to help
[12:14] <Ricket> In compiz, how do I (permanently) change my window decorator to be Emerald?
[12:14] <Senesence> Can anyone help me with this filetype icon deal?
[12:14] <Jack333> anyone speak spanish?
[12:14] <Jordan_U> joj1, What with?

[12:14] <furenku> i speak spanish
[12:14] <ubotu> Si busca ayuda en Espaol por favor entre en los canales #ubuntu-es, #kubuntu-es o #edubuntu-es, all obtendr mas ayuda.
[12:14] <littlegator> pricechild: It's still failing. I'll just pm you the paste...
[12:14] <Jack333> no i need someone who speaks spanish and can talk to me on skype
[12:14] <Jack333> its for a spanish class im taking
[12:14] <IndyGunFreak> knightz: yeah, its in the repos(at least its in mine)
[12:14] <Jack333> anyone please :(?
[12:14] <alex-weej> knoppix: get that package, and install it. you'll need "build-essential" and "linux-headers" to build it
[12:14] <Stormx2> Jack333: Bring it to #ubuntu-offtopic
[12:14] <c_lisp> how do I get a usb ex3 drive to mount so that all users can read or write to it and excute
[12:15] <Jordan_U> !offtopic | Jack333
[12:15] <ubotu> Jack333: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome!
[12:15] <PriceChild> !es | Jack333
[12:15] <joj1> i installed ubuntu but got error message at boot up - i have a sata drive with windows
[12:15] <ubotu> Jack333: Si busca ayuda en Espaol por favor entre en los canales #ubuntu-es, #kubuntu-es o #edubuntu-es, all obtendr mas ayuda.
[12:15] <IndyGunFreak> Jack333: you can't be serious
[12:15] <alex-weej> knoppix: do you know how to build and install it?
[12:15] <Ricket> In compiz, how do I (permanently) change my window decorator to be Emerald?
[12:15] <knoppix> alex-weej: now how do i get those, are those in the vanilla install
[12:15] <Jack333> IndyGunFreak: why cant i be serious?
[12:15] <IndyGunFreak> nothing, good luck
[12:15] <Senesence> There is no way that something as trivial as icon replacement can be so complicated - can it?
[12:15] <Stormx2> Ricket: #ubuntu-effects will know.
[12:15] <alex-weej> knoppix: sudo apt-get install build-essential linux-headers
[12:15] <arnath> anyone? -> 500 gig drive is showing up as 469 gig free space (one partition in ext3)
[12:15] <Ricket> Stormx2: thanks, I'll try it!
[12:15] <littlegator> jack333: this is a support channel for ubuntu, not for help with homework...
[12:16] <Stormx2> Senesence: You're absolutely right. It isn't complex.
[12:16] <knoppix> alex-weej: i dont have access to ethernet. otherwise that would not be a problem :)
[12:16] <Senesence> Stormx2: So how do I change an icon for an entire filetype?
[12:16] <alex-weej> arnath: Gigabytes (10^9) or Gibibytes (2^30)?
[12:16] <arnath> alex-weej: gigabytes
[12:16] <BlueParrot> anyone have a clue what could be wrong here http://pastebin.com/942802 ?
[12:16] <c_lisp> arnath drive when they sell them too you usually sell them by 1000 kb = a megabyte instead of 1024 then the format takes space too
[12:17] <knoppix> alex-weej: I will try to find an ethernet plug and get this done.. so after i build it
[12:17] <Stormx2> Senesence: Make a copy of the icon set, and replace the icon in the new set (/usr/share/icons I think)
[12:17] <alex-weej> knoppix: you don't have to
[12:17] <knightz_> I notice that ubuntu uses less swap space why?
[12:17] <arnath> c_lisp: ye i know, but the thing is fdisk -l said it was 500.1 before i started formatting
[12:17] <evoxy> what does auto ath0 do in /etc/network/interfaces
[12:17] <evoxy> ?
[12:17] <alex-weej> knoppix: you can download the .deb files on your networked machine and then copy it over and install it locally
[12:17] <BlueParrot> my wirless network works if I just use a WEP in the GUI, but I need to use WPA
[12:17] <IndyGunFreak> knightz: who knows, did you figure out how to install bitchx?
[12:17] <alex-weej> knoppix: via CD/USB Storage
[12:17] <alex-weej> knoppix: can you do that?
[12:17] <IndyGunFreak> !wpa
[12:17] <ubotu> Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs
[12:17] <BlueParrot> and I get that error when I try to set the essid
[12:17] <c_lisp> yea its going to say the exact size in fdisk -l arnath
[12:17] <arnath> ah
[12:17] <knightz_> yes gcc headers missing
[12:17] <knoppix> alex-weej: yeah. thats what I am going to do i gues
[12:18] <arnath> c_lisp: on another note -> is it wise to have 1 500 gig partition, or better to split it up? (i read something bout potentially running out of inodes or something?)
[12:18] <Senesence> Stormx2: I don't have a set - It's one icon - It already has a mimetype: "application/x-blender" - where do I need to place my custom icon so that the mimetype can pick up on it?
[12:18] <knoppix> alex-weej: thanks. and after i ahve them built?
[12:18] <joj1> is there a way to get help from someone in a manner we can peacefully rad the text that scolls too fast to know i have been answered
[12:18] <OmegaCenti> [2007-07-05 17:05:38]  <EADG> I have vsftpd up and running, works great on my network, OmegaCenti is trying to log in, but it's a no-go. port 21 is forwarded on the router... any other suggestions?
[12:18] <IndyGunFreak> knightz_: my point is, you didn't have to install from source, you could have simply typed "sudo apt-get install bitchx", and i tshould install.
[12:18] <knoppix> alex-weej: i guess i just need to modprobe it and then use it
[12:18] <Jordan_U> knightz, Just grab the bitchx .deb from packages.ubuntu.com
[12:18] <alex-weej> knoppix: well you need to blacklist the "default" ones
[12:18] <c_lisp> arnath I never had a problem without making multiple partitions with my 4 500 gigs
[12:18] <c_lisp> :)
[12:19] <Stormx2> Senesence: Not too sure. :(
[12:19] <knightz_> indygunfreak ok i get the point
[12:19] <pyrohotdog> So I just got a Logitech Dual Action control, and UT2004 picks up all the buttons, but the sticks don't work?
[12:19] <arnath> c_lisp: ah great :)
[12:19] <knoppix> alex-weej: yeah .. thanks.. i will try all this and see if it works.. thanks
[12:19] <knightz_> I'm find of old skoo
[12:19] <knightz_> I'm find of old skool
[12:19] <alex-weej> knoppix: and then you need to go to System->Administration->Network to set it up with ESSID and WPA keys etc.
[12:19] <pyrohotdog> Quake doesn't pick it up at all, in Postal only the left stick works. I've calibrated numerous times...am I missing a driver or something?
[12:19] <knightz_> I'm kind of old skool
[12:19] <Stormx2> knightz_: Irrelevent. The whole apt system was created because it is more useful.
[12:20] <arnath> c_lisp: one last thing hehe, the drive isnt showing up in my "places" in ubuntu, do i need to add it somewhere?
[12:20] <IndyGunFreak> knightz_: what do you mean?
[12:20] <alex-weej> knoppix: unless you want to set it up via text configuration, or of course you can temporarily set it up using ifconfig/iwconfig
[12:20] <alex-weej> knoppix: do you know how to blacklist modules?
[12:20] <knightz_> I like doing things from scrach
[12:20] <LeoDioxide> can ark to rar passwords/
[12:20] <littlegator> knightz: stop talking and be normal
[12:20] <LeoDioxide> ?
[12:20] <IndyGunFreak> lol, so you're "old skool", but you didn't know what gcc was?.. yeah, ok.
[12:20] <knoppix> alex-weej: yeah.. i do.. thansk
[12:21] <c_lisp> arnath once you format it it should auto detect. Some drives don't auto detect so you have to manual make a folder and mount them.
[12:21] <LeoDioxide> IndyGunFreak: was....IS!
[12:21] <Stormx2> knightz_: please, go ahead and write an IRC client. How about writing a compiler to compile it with. Maybe invent a new language to programme it in?
[12:21] <IndyGunFreak> LeoDioxide: lol, gramar freak.
[12:21] <PriceChild> !blacklist | alex-weej
[12:21] <ubotu> alex-weej: To blacklist a module, edit /etc/modprobe.d/my_blacklist and add  blacklist <modulename>  to the end of that list - To explicitly load modules in a specific order, list them in /etc/initramfs-tools/modules and type  sudo update-initramfs -u
[12:21] <knightz_> I know what gcc is I can't get it to work cause I left out the headers
[12:21] <Stormx2> knightz_: How difficult do you want things to be, exactly?
[12:21] <alex-weej> PriceChild: that wasn't ME asking the question... :P
[12:21] <alex-weej> knoppix: blacklist rt73usb and you should be good to go, it should pick up the rt73 driver
[12:21] <PriceChild> alex-weej, sorry :)
[12:21] <Stormx2> knightz_: sudo apt-get install build-essential
[12:21] <arnath> c_lisp: i seem to have a bigger problem, i'm in "computer" at the moment and when i try to open the drive, i get "Unable to mount the selected volume"
[12:22] <knightz_> if your using ndiswrapper you don't have to blacklist
[12:22] <arnath> (only root can mount it)
[12:22] <Senesence> Frakin Gnome channel is dead.
[12:22] <IndyGunFreak> Frakin gnome?
[12:22] <Jordan_U> knightz, LFS might be a better suit for you than Ubuntu if you like doing everything from scratch
[12:22] <c_lisp> arnath did you do sudo before the mount command?
[12:22] <littlegator> Franken Gnome?
[12:22] <hacosta> sorry about last time i was trying to paste the pastebin url
[12:22] <joj1> i have been professing that we at linux are ready willing and able to help - where is everybody when it is i that need the help - someone please help me
[12:22] <IndyGunFreak> littlegator: gues he's the only one who knows who that is.
[12:22] <knightz_> I didt that on my desktop
[12:22] <arnath> c_lisp no, im not trying to mount, i added it to fstab, shouldnt it auto mount then? :S
[12:22] <knightz_> I did it that on my desktop
[12:22] <mzanfardino> I'm running ubuntu server 6.10 (no UI) and I want to launch an application once the system has booted.  What files can I modify to ensure that all other services have completed loading before my application initializes?
[12:23] <Stormx2> joj1: With?
[12:23] <littlegator> indygunfreak:  think he meant "freakin" >_>
[12:23] <alex-weej> knoppix: also remember that each time you get a kernel upgrade, you will need to recompile this driver. hopefully the buggy driver will be fixed soon though.
[12:23] <hacosta> anyways is a score of -521 acceptable?
[12:23] <knightz_> it took me 2months
[12:23] <IndyGunFreak> littlegator: think so to, but why is it dead?
[12:23] <fujin> mzanfardino: use init scripts to launch you rapplication, and set it's priority to 99
[12:23] <fujin> that'll ensure it starts last
[12:23] <c_lisp> arnath fstab is for internal drives not usb drives
[12:23] <alex-weej> knoppix: and if you want to try to get network-manager to work with it (there's no real reason why it shouldn't) then install network-manager-gnome
[12:23] <littlegator> indy: I think he just means that nobody is responding...
[12:23] <pike_> hacosta: for what again?
[12:23] <arnath> c_lisp: i did _not_ know that :|
[12:23] <c_lisp> there maybe a way if you do file /dev/disk/by-id/*
[12:23] <arnath> c_lisp: so how do i go about mounting it automatically? :S
[12:23] <c_lisp> and fstab it by its id in fstab
[12:24] <knoppix> alex-weej: thanks. will go and try all thsi
[12:24] <arnath> c_lisp: it shows up as /dev/sdc
[12:24] <Jordan_U> joj1, What do you need help with?
[12:24] <Stormx2> knightz_: Nobody cares, okay? You're spamming up the channel by asking for help with something you're doing wrong.
[12:24] <hacosta> pike_: i am upgrading to edgy
[12:24] <alex-weej> knoppix: XMPP / email me<EMAIL_ADDRESS>if you need any help
[12:24] <mzanfardino> fujin: thank you.  I'm not that familiar with init scripts.  I've looked at rc.local and that didn't  work for me (called too soon).  What script should I look at specifically (if there is a link to a site you can direct me to I will research offline)
[12:24] <c_lisp> manual mount would be like sudo /dev/sdc -t ext3 /home/yourhomename/dirmount
[12:24] <arnath> ye, but i rather not manually mount it everytime :s
[12:24] <fujin> mzanfardino: create a simple bash script
[12:24] <Stormx2> c_lisp: You missed out "mount"
[12:24] <knoppix> alex-weej: thanks so much .. will let u know how it goes
[12:24] <darwin81> Can I use a keyboard as a mouse?
[12:24] <hacosta> and when i do an aptitude dist-upgrade i get a score of -521
[12:25] <knightz_> ok storm
[12:25] <c_lisp> you stay you formatted ext3 right?
[12:25] <arnath> yes
[12:25] <c_lisp> thats stromx2
[12:25] <c_lisp> manual mount would be like sudo mount /dev/sdc -t ext3 /home/yourhomename/dirmount
[12:25] <Jordan_U> hacosta, That is not the proper way to upgrade
[12:25] <c_lisp> thats a example you can mount it anywhere you want arnath
[12:25] <legalsized> I want my network interface to listen on three IP address. can anyone point me to a good config file example of that?
[12:25] <arnath> yes, but i rather have it mount on startup, cause i intend to use it a lot
[12:25] <hacosta> Jordan_U: i followed this wiki
[12:25] <Peteki> yo
[12:25] <littlegator> (anybody) I was upgrading to feisty from edgey when I got an error that cancelled the upgrade. When I try upgrading from the terminal, I get a packaging error for " /var/cache/apt/archives/libdb4.3_4.3.29-6build1_i386.deb".
[12:25] <arnath> (also, i would like to share it over my network)
[12:26] <c_lisp> ubunt likes to mount in /media path where other linux systems usually mounted in /mnt
[12:26] <terrestre> anyone using monodevelop?
[12:26] <mzanfardino> fujin: ok, I have a one-line comant that will spawn my task.  Which script should I have call it?  Timing is critical as I've already tried running it from rc.local and it was too soon.
[12:26] <Stormx2> legalsized: Define "listen"
[12:26] <Jordan_U> hacosta, What wiki?
[12:26] <fujin> legalsized: /etc/network/interfaces
[12:26] <mzanfardino> fujin: s/comant/command
[12:26] <hacosta> http://easylinux.info/wiki/Ubuntu:Edgy#How_to_upgrade_from_Hoary_Hedgehog_-.3E_Breezy_Badger_-.3E_Dapper_Drake
[12:26] <fujin> mzanfardino: *create* *a* *script* *that* *launches* *it*
[12:26] <Stormx2> legalsized: Ah, I misread. nevermind.
[12:26] <c_lisp> arnath you will click on System->Administrator->ShareFolder ubuntu will install samba for you to share the device
[12:26] <c_lisp> or you can do sudo apt-get install samba
[12:27] <arnath> im already sharing some other things through samba, that should work out fine :p
[12:27] <Jordan_U> hacosta, well it's wrong, the only wiki I trust is wiki.ubuntu.com
[12:27] <arnath> but my point is it has to automount on startup
[12:27] <Jordan_U> !upgrade | hacosta
[12:27] <ubotu> hacosta: For upgrading, see the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes
[12:27] <arnath> well preferably :P
[12:27] <mzanfardino> fujin: I'm sorry, I think I'm not being intentionally dense but I guess I'm not understanding.  The application needs to  launch unattended when the system boots... I'm not quite clear on how to have my script launch at boot time
[12:27] <legalsized> what's the IT name for "listen to three IP address"?
[12:27] <c_lisp> it doesn't have to auto mount to share it on samba onces you mount it it will show the files that samba is pointing at
[12:27] <fujin> you are being dense
[12:27] <hacosta> k Jordan_Uthanks
[12:27] <fujin> google
[12:27] <Peteki> me too drunk im sry
[12:27] <Jordan_U> hacosta, Revert your sources.list then follow the linked instructions
[12:28] <hacosta> k
[12:28] <arnath> c_lisp: yes but it would still require me to auto-mount on every reboot
[12:28] <arnath> sorry
[12:28] <arnath> manually mount
[12:28] <darwin81> Can I use the keyboard to control the pointer?
[12:28] <c_lisp> you can do a batch script and add it to the start up
[12:29] <mzanfardino> fujin: your answer is not very clear.  I understand to create a script (I have done this).  Do you understand that what I'm trying to achieve is the automagic execution of said script at boot time without the need of a user to log into the system?
[12:29] <arnath> c_lisp ok will do that, best to mount in /media or my home folder?
[12:29] <PriceChild> darwin81, ctrl+alt+shift+numlock
[12:29] <jrib> !startup > c_lisp (see the private message from ubotu)
[12:29] <PriceChild> darwin81, then use the keypad
[12:29] <PriceChild> darwin81, you need the num lock on though
[12:29] <c_lisp> you should add the manual mount command in a text file thie sudo chmod -x yourtextfile
[12:29] <fujin> mzanfardino: yes, but you're a retard and not listening
[12:29] <kitche> mzanfardino: add the script to rc.local or whatever script ubuntu uses for admin scripts on bootup :)
[12:29] <PriceChild> fujin, no personal attacks thankyou.
[12:29] <ghostx> lol
[12:29] <fujin> get fucked
[12:29] <c_lisp> media if you don't want to makes your home folder to get crowded from adding things
[12:30] <PriceChild> !guidelines > fujin
[12:30] <arnath> c_lisp: if i do a sudo mount ...., will it require me to give the admin password on startup then?
[12:30] <c_lisp> I don't think so if its in a startup script
[12:31] <iZen> can someone hook me up with the link to the wineHQ
[12:31] <kitche> arnath: most likely yes but on bootup you don't need to use sudo
[12:31] <arnath> ah k
[12:31] <legalsized> bye
[12:31] <mzanfardino> kitche: thank you, that is much more helpful than fujins.  I've already tried adding it to rc.local and the execution is too soon.  I'm not sure what script then is appropriate.  Do you know what other script is called following rc.local?
[12:31] <arnath> kitche: if i have to mount something in /media as a normal user, i have to, no?
[12:31] <Jordan_U> !appdb > iZen ?
[12:32] <kitche> arnath: not on bootup since the system doesn't know anything about the users until it fully boots
[12:32] <mzanfardino> !init-script
[12:32] <iZen> i need the IRC room for Winehq
[12:32] <Stormx2> iZen: #winehq
[12:32] <iZen> ty
[12:32] <arnath> kitche: isnt this a huge security risk?
[12:32] <Bothered> What happens if I move a partition using gparted (increase the start point), if there is data on the front of the partition? Will gparted refuse to move the partition, will data be lost, or will the data be moved?
[12:32] <mzanfardino> !init
[12:32] <Stormx2> mzanfardino: Please /msg ubotu
[12:33] <c_lisp> arnath anybody that has physical access to your computers is a security breach
[12:33] <kitche> arnath: well on boot everything is ran as root until root passes it off to the user that it needs to be ran as
[12:33] <arnath> kitche: ah, and you can't slip anything "dangerous" into it?
[12:33] <IndyGunFreak> iZen: i dont' think there is one.
[12:33] <kitche> arnath: for example postfix is ran as root but root passes it off to postfix user
[12:33] <arnath> like say a format? :D
[12:33] <blkno1> WHat file do bash alias go in .bashrc or bash_aliases?
[12:34] <kitche> arnath: as long as physical access is granted anything can be done :)
[12:34] <knightz_> can I switch bootloader's?
[12:34] <arnath> true that true that...
[12:34] <Stormx2> blkno1: .bashrc, but you can just use "alias"
[12:34] <kitche> knightz_: yes what do you want to use though?
[12:34] <arnath> still a bit scary :p
[12:34] <jrib> blkno1: if you source .bash_aliases in your .bashrc, then you can put them in .bash_aliases
[12:34] <bryan986> Can someone tell me how to clear my dns? I have a smb share in my fstab that points to another machine on my network by name, but it keeps trying to connect to some random ip address...
[12:34] <mzanfardino> how about this: is there a way to automatically log a user account on at boot?
[12:34] <knightz_> lilo
[12:34] <kitche> !lilo | knightz_
[12:35] <jrib> mzanfardino: system -> administration -> login window
[12:35] <kitche> hmm will that shoud about lilo or no
[12:35] <iZen> indygun i got wow installed but when i try opening the exe with wine it says it cant find WoW.exe in system32
[12:35] <mzanfardino> jrib: no gui
[12:35] <kitche> knightz_: think it's in the repos
[12:35] <Bothered> /leave #ubuntu
[12:35] <knightz_> no I mean I want to put ubuntu in the windows the windows boot loader
[12:36] <arnath> now more of an esthetic question :p is there a good "place" to put the mount script? or just in my home folder?
[12:36] <kitche> knightz_: well you will have to daisy chain grub anyhow
[12:36] <mosno> arnath: check out the FHS
[12:36] <mosno> arnath: /usr/local/bin probably
[12:36] <knightz_> hm.........
[12:36] <arnath> mosno: will have to first look up what the fhs is :|
[12:36] <c_lisp> arnath /usr/sbin
[12:36] <arnath> ok
[12:36] <Stormx2> arnath: Why have you got a mount script, exactly?
[12:36] <c_lisp> bins are for your executable files arnath best plac
[12:36] <c_lisp> place
[12:36] <mosno> arnath: yes, do so.
[12:37] <Jordan_U> arnath, If it is going to be run as root it should only be owned by and modifiable by root
[12:37] <arnath> Stormx2: because apparantly my external usb drive cant be fstabbed?
[12:37] <jhutchins_lt> !bot
[12:37] <Stormx2> arnath: okay, just checking
[12:37] <knightz_> is there any progies that would let me see ext3 in windows?
[12:37] <arnath> well thanks for all your help! :)
[12:37] <Jordan_U> knightz, Yes...
[12:37] <c_lisp> I have have one usb drive that doesn't auto mount too kinda sucks :)
[12:37] <knightz_> jordan_U what?
[12:37] <Jordan_U> knightz, http://www.fs-driver.org/
[12:38] <arnath> :D
[12:38] <knightz_> ok thanks
[12:38] <c_lisp> if you keep it in the save usb slot it should stay the same /dev/ I think
[12:38] <jrib> arnath: gnome doesn't automount it when you login?
[12:38] <arnath> jrib: no, i get an error that it cant mount it (cause im not root)
[12:39] <jrib> arnath: sounds like a bug
[12:39] <c_lisp> 1 of my drives does that to jrib I think it has to do with the boot speed of the drive durning loading
[12:39] <Jordan_U> knightz, Also http://sourceforge.net/projects/ext2fsd
[12:39] <knightz_> ok
[12:39] <arnath> jrib: that is possible, this version of ubuntu has been acting up eversince i installed it (first official edgy release)
[12:39] <Kprofthreat> @lart aKKiLLa
[12:40] <arnath> im gonna dump all my data on the new drive, then install feisty
[12:40] <Kprofthreat> @fart
[12:40] <jrib> arnath: why not upgrade to feisty?
[12:40] <c_lisp> going to the gym catch yall later :)
[12:40] <daniev> better update to feisty
[12:40] <daniev> actually that's i'm doing right now
[12:40] <arnath> jrib: im cleaning up everything first, getting all my data (i also have 2 windows drives in there, and a laptop that needs to be ubuntu-fied)
[12:41] <c_lisp> everytime I tried to upgrade to a new dist upgrade something ends up buggy
[12:41] <Bothered> Does anyone know if clipping the front of a partition (resizing using gparted), where data is at the start of the partition, will lead to data loss (if this is in the wrong place, could someone point me to the right channel)
[12:41] <jrib> arnath: ah ok
[12:41] <arnath> i dont usually upgrade, i usually format & install :p
[12:41] <arnath> but this edgy release has been bugged so to speak from the beginning with some very annoying results hehe
[12:41] <Jack_Sparrow> Bothered: It will move the data but if you add another partition in front of it it can cause problems
[12:42] <arnath> c_lisp: could you give me an example of the mount command again btw? i've been scrolling up but can't seem to find it :)
[12:42] <knightz_> it works thanks
[12:42] <m1r> how to change subtitle size in gxine ?
[12:42] <Jordan_U> arnath, Edgy had a lot of beta software ( like firefox 2.0 ) in it, hence the name :)
[12:42] <Bothered> How bad are the problems likely to be?
[12:42] <arnath> ah :p
[12:43] <Ltar> My external hard drive, formatted to NTFS, frequently encounters I/O errors while copying large amounts of data. the instructions in the error message tell me to run chkdsk /f in windows, and then reboot twice
[12:43] <Ltar> what is the function of rebooting twice? I've found that failing to do so leaves the drive broken to linux. also, is there any way I could increase the survivability of the drive, while writing to it from linux? It seems to encounter an I/O error after about 4 gigs have been transferred to it.
[12:43] <broedje> does anybody know how to configure HAL?
[12:43] <knightz_> i would intel to release more info on their wirelss cards
[12:43] <firebird_619> Does "sudo ddcprobe | grep monitorrange" work with monitors connected via DVI? There isn't anything returned when I run that command.
[12:43] <c_lisp> sudo mount /dev/sdc1 -t ext3 /media/mydirectory
[12:43] <arnath> ah great thanks
[12:43] <c_lisp> np
[12:43] <kitche> Ltar: sounds like a bad drive to me
[12:44] <Stormx2> Ltar: The 2 reboots is to do with the ntfs log, I think. The first one fixes the errors, but doesn't write to the log that the drive is "clean". The second does that.
[12:44] <berlin> dsa
[12:44] <Jack_Sparrow> Bothered: Just issuse with grub
[12:44] <pike_> hello wretched masses!
[12:44] <Stormx2> Ltar: Also, I'd imagine the I/O errors are a hardware problem.
[12:44] <willskills> hi guys - I just installed restricted nvidia drivers on my laptop - it has a 64mb geforce4 - and I can't start X - good old irssi :D
[12:45] <willskills> please help :)
[12:45] <Bothered> Jack_Sparrow: Cheers, that's ok then. This is for a re-install.
[12:45] <Stormx2> willskills: how did you install them?
[12:45] <Jordan_U> Ltar, Rebooting windows gets it to run chkdisk, when the file system is labeled as unclean Linux will refuse to mount it with write permissions, have you checked the drive with spinwrite or something?
[12:45] <Jack_Sparrow> Bothered: No problems
[12:45] <willskills> using synaptic
[12:45] <pike_> willskills: geforce4? is that an nvidia-glx-legacy card?
[12:45] <willskills> its a laptop card
[12:45] <broedje> willskills: Samsung?
[12:45] <Jack_Sparrow> Bothered: Are you reinstalling the same version?
[12:45] <willskills> so I am assuming so
[12:45] <willskills> ni it's a packard bell
[12:45] <willskills> no*
[12:45] <daan> danfg still there?
[12:45] <kitche> pike_: yes it needs the legacy driver
[12:45] <Stormx2> willskills: restricted-manager --help should get you what you need
[12:45] <larson9999> packard bell?  wow
[12:46] <lordlucan> im running ubuntu as a LiveCD ....is there anyway I can save my settings?
[12:46] <berlin> #berlin
[12:46] <danfg> daan: hi
[12:46] <willskills> ok - how do I turn on the legacy driver?
[12:46] <Ltar> Jordan_U: ahh.. no. I've just been ferrying it between the computers, trying to merge two music libraries onto it. what is spinwrite?
[12:46] <daan> danfg was afk
[12:46] <Tarkus> hey, im trying to install FUPPES media server on my linux box to interact with my PS3. any idea how i can install this? repository is my favorite way to install (only way i know of yet). http://fuppes.ulrich-voelkel.de/
[12:46] <daan> danfg can we take this private?
[12:46] <Bothered> I was looking for a second opinion. See http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=2969782#post2969782
[12:46] <broedje> willskills: xfonts-base? X11? gnome?
[12:46] <danfg> daan: np, it worked btw
[12:46] <Stormx2> lordlucan: You could copy your ~ to partition?
[12:46] <daan> danfg what worked?
[12:46] <willskills> broedje: what? yes yes yes I think
[12:46] <willskills> I just did a fresh install
[12:46] <lordlucan> my what?
[12:46] <Bothered> Jack_Sparrow: I helping someone else on the forum (http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=2969782#post2969782)
[12:46] <slocate> hey, is /etc/X11/xorg.conf~ the backup from gedit or the original stock xorg.conf?
[12:46] <Jordan_U> Ltar, It is a proprietary but AFIK best of it's kind Hard drive diagnostic / recovery boot CD
[12:47] <Stormx2> lordlucan: Your home directory.
[12:47] <willskills> slocate: yes
[12:47] <danfg> daan: i used java-alternative thingy to use the other java installed

[12:47] <Stormx2> lordlucan: Why do you want to save them? o.O
[12:47] <daan> danfg so no more problems?
[12:48] <Jack_Sparrow> ah..ok
[12:48] <arnath> btw, is it still really hard to get wireless working in linux? (ive had some _major_ problems with this before)
[12:48] <lordlucan> just wondering....i think you can save your settings in damn small linux and puppylinux ......
[12:48] <danfg> daan: now java says it's java 1.6.0, yay
[12:48] <kitche> arnath: depends on the wireless card
[12:48] <asdf> How do you display an image's dimensions on the desktop?
[12:48] <aroo> arnath: depends on the wireless card
[12:48] <danfg> daan: yep, problem solved, thanks man :)
[12:48] <daan> danfg whoohoo congrats
[12:48] <Stormx2> arnath: Depends on the card.
[12:48] <droglar> hello all can i get some help please
[12:48] <aroo> arnath: i've had no bad luck with realtek based cards
[12:49] <larson9999> arnath, getting easier.  i was able to get three different cards working in about 10 each.
[12:49] <Jordan_U> lordlucan, You can use a writable partition ( like a thumb drive ) labeled casper-rw to keep persistent data
[12:49] <arnath> intel pro/wireless 3945ABG
[12:49] <droglar> hello all can i get some help please
[12:49] <Stormx2> droglar: Only if you describe the problem you're having.
[12:49] <lordlucan> im a linux newbie....what is "labeled casper -rw"?
[12:49] <Jordan_U> !ask | droglar
[12:49] <ubotu> droglar: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[12:50] <droglar> I am trying to install bcmwl5.inf wireless card and cant get it installed
[12:50] <Ltar> Jordan_U: well... this is a strange occurrance. Attempting to resume copying files to the disk immediately gave me an I/O error, and skipping that file gave me another error. but, cancelling, and manually selecting the next folder to copy worked fine. is it possible that the files are corrupted on the linux side?
[12:50] <intangir> sounds like a windows driver file
[12:50] <wert613> it is
[12:50] <wert613> i installed one
[12:50] <arnath> (btw, the auto-mounting works now ;) thanks all)
[12:50] <Jordan_U> lordlucan, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/LiveCDPersistence
[12:50] <wert613> you need to use ndiswrapper
[12:50] <lordlucan> thanks!
[12:50] <droglar> I know I have done exactly as they say to do but it is still not working
[12:51] <arnath> its getting worse though, when i get properties of the usb drive, it only says 435 now :|
[12:51] <firebird_619> Does "sudo ddcprobe | grep monitorrange" work with monitors connected via DVI? There isn't anything returned when I run that command.
[12:51] <mrunagi> anyone here running awn?
[12:51] <wert613> droglar
[12:51] <droglar> yes
[12:51] <wert613> ive run it mrunagi

[12:52] <droglar> mrunagi what is that
[12:52] <wert613> nah
[12:52] <asdf> How do you display an image's dimensions on the desktop under the file name?
[12:52] <Stormx2> asdf: Maybe ask in #gnome ?
[12:52] <wert613> droglar: what does ifconfig say?
[12:52] <mrunagi> droglar its an osx like dock
[12:52] <wert613> yeh
[12:52] <wert613> i didnt like it
[12:52] <wert613> bit too bulky
[12:52] <droglar> where do I find out what my ifconfig says just installed this today
[12:53] <wert613> ok
[12:53] <wert613> open a terminal
[12:53] <droglar> ok
[12:53] <Jordan_U> Ltar, I think that it is much more likely a hardware issue, but if not you should definitely file a bug against ntfs-3g ( I assume that is what you are using to write to the drive, if not then that would explain the problems you are having ) as file system corruption is a serious bug

[12:55] <Ricket> How do I diagnose a long Ubuntu startup time? I don't know what's causing it but it kinda freezes when the startup message thing says "Nautilus" and GNOME has already loaded, and I can start other programs but the Nautilus thing doesn't go away for about 2 minutes. Also Networkmanager doesn't start until it goes away...

[12:56] <Stormx2> arnath: Yep. You have to leave some room for the filesystem.
[12:56] <arnath> damn, quite a bit of room :|
[12:56] <Stormx2> arnath: I know. I was a bit shocked when i partitioned my 300gb hard disk drive.
[12:56] <arnath> hehe :)
[12:57] <arcticchill360> hey whats up?
[12:57] <Rhumor> hello, I'm currently on xp, looking for something less commercial more user driven just looking for some general info. Am I in the right place
[12:57] <billiejoex_> could someone help me plz? :(
[12:57] <arcticchill360> yep
[12:57] <Stormx2> Rhumor: Depends what you use your computer for.

[12:57] <robby> Ubuntu is fuckin dumb hot!!!
[12:57] <arnath> ok guys, im having another problem now :) so i did the auto-mount script to mount my usb drive on startup, and it mounts, but i can't write to it
[12:57] <arnath> (permission issue)
[12:57] <Stormx2> !ohmy | robby
[12:57] <ubotu> robby: Please watch your language and keep this channel family friendly.
[12:57] <Ltar> Rhumor: quite possibly.
[12:57] <Rhumor> I use my computer for everything, love to learn new stuff
[12:58] <Rhumor>  sometimes i feel as if windows hinders that
[12:58] <robby> ur right sorry
[12:58] <arcticchill360> it may take a little bit ajustin to ubuntu but its worht uit
[12:58] <Stormx2> Rhumor: Could, well ubuntu is a lot of fun and for most uses, a lot easier than windows.
[12:58] <robby> im just excited
[12:58] <arcticchill360> i recently switched from xp to ubuntu
[12:58] <Jordan_U> arnath, NTFS?
[12:58] <arnath> ext3
[12:58] <Rhumor> are hardware drivers easy to get hold of for it?
[12:59] <d4rkmonkey> Ubuntu r0xx0rz my s0xx0rz
[12:59] <arcticchill360> everything except wireless cards
[12:59] <arcticchill360> lol ive been having a heck of a time gettin mine to work
[12:59] <MajorPayne> Rhumor: Most drivers are already set up.
[12:59] <droglar> sorry I got kicked for tt ha
[12:59] <Stormx2> Rhumor: Ubuntu falls down in a few places. Some hardware can be unsupported, some games won't work, some specialist software won't work well (or at all).
[12:59] <wert613> yeh
[12:59] <arcticchill360> still havent
[12:59] <Jordan_U> Rhumor, If your hardware is supported it will work out of the box, if not then it could be hard to impossible to get some things working
[12:59] <Rhumor> I couldn't find the driver disc for my LAN card and last time I reinstalled windows it took me weeks to find them
[12:59] <MajorPayne> Rhumor: I say most.  What isn't can be difficult to set up sometimes.
[12:59] <wert613> actually nothing should be wrong there
[12:59] <robby> im thinking, i might just remove xp.  that will give me 250GB HDD to play around
[12:59] <wert613> everything seems fine
[01:00] <Stormx2> robby: Just be sure that you don't need it.
[01:00] <arnath> Jordan_U: ext3
[01:00] <droglar> wert613 u there
[01:00] <IndyGunFreak> robby: whats your experience level with Ubuntu?.. thats a bold choice if your'e really new
[01:00] <wert613> do you have netwrpok manager or wifi radar installed?
[01:00] <IndyGunFreak> Stormx2: damn you,. beat me again...lol
[01:00] <Stormx2> Haha :D
[01:00] <MajorPayne> Rhumor: The best thing you can do is download the live cd and give it a shot without installing it.  Make sure everything works.
[01:00] <wert613> droglar: that up there ^ was adressed to you
[01:00] <robby> inter
[01:01] <droglar> no i dont

[01:01] <wert613> try iwconfig

[01:01] <wert613> ahh
[01:01] <daan> robby that can be a problem yes

[01:02] <gtwthsf> Hola, que tal, I have a very simple question for you wizards, I have enabled root account and forgot the password of the root :) And now when booting, the system founds that there is an error in the file system and int asks root password (forgotten). So the question is, how can I unblock the root password?
[01:02] <desi4life> hey all
[01:02] <Stormx2> Rhumor: Cool. Well if you shrink down your windows partition, you can run ubuntu and windows side-by-side. Give yourself a few weeks of adjustment time (it's a bit of a learning curve) and if you like it / don't need windows, by all means switch completely.
[01:02] <wert613> now paste the output somehwhere
[01:02] <desi4life> i installed beryl but how do i activate the effects
[01:02] <mrunagi> im running windows and linux
[01:02] <desi4life> i cant seem to make the effects happen
[01:03] <droglar> i will get kicked if i post it here

[01:03] <wert613> yes
[01:03] <Jordan_U> gtwthsf, I can tell you how to reset your root password but it sounds like you have bigger problems than just that...
[01:03] <wert613> use a pastebin
[01:03] <desi4life> but is there a theme that i have to download now?
[01:03] <IndyGunFreak> mrunagi: what is awn?
[01:03] <mrunagi> avant window navigator
[01:03] <pike_> gtwthsf: id recommend troubleshooting it from a livecd
[01:03] <daan> desi4life: i don't think so
[01:03] <droglar> how do I use that
[01:03] <IndyGunFreak> oops

[01:05] <kmcq> hey there folks, i attempted to compile ioquake3 on a fresh ubuntu 7.04 install after executing sudo apt-get install build-essential and im getting many errors in regards to "file not found" in lcc.c, what am i missing (im assuming im missing some important librarys or something)
[01:05] <robby> i really want to get beryl but not sure if i have enough resorces to run it
[01:05] <Rhumor> does everything have to be built from source? although I want to learn this I'm not to competent just now, will that pose a problem?
[01:05] <daan> desi4life: can you stop the beryl-manager and run it from a terminal?
[01:05] <Ltar> rh
[01:05] <Jordan_U> gtwthsf, To reset your root password boot into "recovery mode" from GRUB when you get to a terminal run: passwd root
[01:05] <Ricket> Okay, regarding my long startup time, bootchart didn't help (the chart shows 31s bootup time when it was considerably longer) but perhaps this snipped from the System Log applet, under the "messages" section, will help: http://pastebin.ca/605094
[01:05] <desi4life> how do i start it from terminal?
[01:05] <Stormx2> kmcq: Any additional information you can give us? Is this during ./configure?
[01:05] <firebird_619> What command can I use to determine my monitors horizontal sync frequency and vertical refresh rate? "sudo ddcprobe | grep monitorrange" does not work.
[01:05] <droglar> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/28731/
[01:05] <desi4life> ok nevermind i got it
[01:06] <daan> desi4life: do you get any weird errors
[01:06] <Ricket> I watched the system clock, and the startup progress thing was stuck at Nautilus right up until just after 7:01 (19:01), and that corresponds with some of the messages  in the log (at http://pastebin.ca/605094)
[01:06] <desi4life> nope
[01:06] <desi4life> i see the icon in the tray
[01:06] <kmcq> stormx2: no its during make -C code/tools/lcc install
[01:06] <desi4life> and everything seems normal
[01:06] <mrunagi> anyone here run maya on linux?
[01:06] <daan> desi4life: but no effects
[01:06] <robby> some of the vids if seen of beryl is plain sick

[01:06] <daan> desi4life: do you have the right drivers installed?
[01:06] <wert613> ok droglar
[01:06] <desi4life> not that i can tell
[01:06] <droglar> yes sir
[01:06] <desi4life> yes
[01:07] <desi4life> is there a way i can check the effects
[01:07] <wert613> just a second
[01:07] <droglar> ok
[01:07] <desi4life> i mean i did minimize n stuff but dont see anything special
[01:07] <wert613> its been a while since ive done this i have to find the file
[01:07] <younghacker> why do I get the message that my nickname is used by someone else and when i try to fix it tells me that my password is wrong?
[01:07] <Ricket> Stormx2: that's not really an option.. this is a laptop, and when I travel, DHCP is kinda required. Also, I have always used DHCP - this problem only started earlier today, after I uninstalled Beryl and installed Compiz... Compiz works though.
[01:07] <daan> desi4life: what is your videocard?
[01:07] <daan> desi4life: ati /nvidia/ intel
[01:07] <desi4life> i an ATI card
[01:08] <daan> desi4life:  they can be a pain sometimes
[01:08] <Jack_Sparrow> How did you install compiz ?
[01:08] <Stormx2> Ricket: Ah okay. Well, it could be a few things. You say the delay is after X has started?
[01:08] <Ltar> desi4life: the ati RAGE XL is not supported, I know
[01:08] <robby> lol... im using an 32mb ati agp....<-------LOL!
[01:08] <mrunagi> is compiz not already installed with ubuntu?
[01:08] <desi4life> hmm i think mine is pretty new
[01:08] <Stormx2> mrunagi: Not by default.
[01:08] <Ricket> Stormx2: I guess so... I see the gnome menu, I can even start programs, so I guess that means X has started right? (I'm pretty new to Linux...)
[01:09] <Stormx2> Yeah, that's right.
[01:09] <Jordan_U> mrunagi, It is but only the base install
[01:09] <kmcq> stormx2 any ideas?
[01:09] <daan> desi4life:  try this http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Ubuntu:Feisty#How_to_install_Beryl_.28ATI.29

[01:09] <Stormx2> Ricket: Could be beryl having a slow start-up. How old is the laptop?
[01:09] <daan> desi4life: try from step 8
[01:09] <Stormx2> kmcq: None, sorry :(
[01:09] <Ltar> desi4life: you can check to see if there are drivers available for your card here http://openprinting.org/printer_list.cgi
[01:09] <gtwthsf>  I have enabled root account and forgot the password of the root. And now when booting, the system founds that there is an error in the file system and int asks root password (forgotten). So the question is, how can I unblock the root password?
[01:09] <kmcq> stormx2 thanks anyway
[01:10] <Ricket> Stormx2: Beryl isn't installed any more. The laptop is a Core 2 Duo 2ghz, 2gb ram... A few months old, but not old at all as far as speeds. :)
[01:10] <Jordan_U> gtwthsf, To reset your root password boot into "recovery mode" from GRUB when you get to a terminal run: passwd root
[01:10] <piero> hi sorry for my bad english. it's possible launch a command line of poweroff at specified time?
[01:10] <Stormx2> gtwthsf: Recovery mode might allow you to change the password.

[01:10] <Ltar> desi4life: oops, here http://ati.amd.com/support/driver.html
[01:10] <Ricket> Stormx2: I did enable multithreaded startup... Should I try removing that? I don't remember exactly how I enabled it though, I changed some setting in a file from "none" to "multi"...
[01:10] <Ricket> Stormx2: but multithreaded startup is nice too, it almost halves my startup time
[01:10] <daan> piero: look at cron
[01:11] <pike_> piero: you might look at the at command.. or cron
[01:11] <piero> i seen but i have a error syntax with command at
[01:11] <daan> piero: post your command
[01:11] <Stormx2> Ricket: Well, disable stuff one step at a time.
[01:11] <Ricket> Stormx2: and again, I had it multithreaded before and it did not have this massive delay so I guess I should leave it... How can I find traces of Beryl that might be left? Maybe something is trying to load, and waiting all that time and then timeout-ing? All I did was remove beryl and all related programs from within Synaptic but maybe there is something still hanging around?
[01:11] <piero> sudo at 04:00 AM 06.07.07 poweroff

[01:12] <wert613> erm
[01:12] <wert613> droglar:
[01:12] <Stormx2> Ricket: yeah. I'd imagine simply removing them wouldn't revert back to metacity (the other wm)
[01:12] <wert613> i cant find the file
[01:12] <droglar> yes
[01:12] <Jack_Sparrow> Ricket: How did you load compiz
[01:12] <wert613> but there is a file
[01:12] <wert613> and in it it says the wrong name for your wireless
[01:12] <wert613> it should say eth1
[01:12] <wert613> not umm
[01:12] <wert613> umm
[01:13] <Ricket> Jack_Sparrow: in the System>Preferences>Sessions, I removed the Beryl Manager entry and added a Compiz one that is the command "compiz --replace"

[01:13] <robby> i dont know why i even still have it

[01:13] <droglar> ok so what does that mean man
[01:13] <robby> its just sitting here teasing me
[01:13] <wert613> erg one second i have it written down i believe
[01:13] <Stormx2> robby: When was the last time you used it?
[01:14] <Blu3> is there an ubuntu server install with console=ttyS0 from grub?
[01:14] <robby> 7yrs ago maybe
[01:14] <wert613> right, so theres a file having to do with ndiswrapper that proiabably says in it wlan0 its supposed to say eth1
[01:14] <Jordan_U> Ricket, Remove that entry from the session and try enabling compiz through desktop effects
[01:14] <iZen> newb question.... how do the cd and dir commands work?
[01:14] <Stormx2> iZen: dir is MS DOS I think. ls just lists what's in the directory
[01:14] <Jordan_U> !cli | iZen
[01:14] <ubotu> iZen: The linux terminal or command-line interface is very powerful. Open a terminal via Applications -> Accessories -> Terminal (Gnome) or K-menu -> System -> Konsole (KDE).  Guide: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UsingTheTerminal
[01:15] <Ricket> Jordan_U: this is not the normal Compiz, it is a third-party beta of Compiz Fusion. Desktop effects no longer applies...
[01:15] <ScottLij> I could see my windows computers on the network earlier today and write files to them but now I can't connect to them, any ideas how to fix this?

[01:15] <droglar> ok but how do i fix this I am so new to this that it it driving me crazy
[01:15] <orbisvicis> sound question:
[01:15] <orbisvicis>  i think my audigy card suddenly switched to pcm, b/c it went dead till i turned pcm up in alsamixer -- is there anyway I can disable pcm & still get sound ?
[01:15] <iZen> i just need to cd to my home folder so i put cd home/?
[01:15] <Stormx2> iZen: No.
[01:15] <robby> linux.about.com
[01:16] <Ricket> However, even though it is a beta version of compiz, I experience this Ubuntu delay even without running compiz, so it can't be related to the fact that I added compiz, only to the fact that I removed Beryl...
[01:16] <kitche> iZen: cd ~ to go to your user's home
[01:16] <orbisvicis> am i missing the point / i have to use pcm ?
[01:16] <Stormx2> iZen: Your home directory can be accessed via "cd /home/youruser" or "cd ~" or simply "cd"
[01:16] <equium> if my soundcard really isn't working with ubuntu (but works in xp), is it likely to work with any other dist, like opensuse?
[01:16] <Eleaf> When I create a mixed mode CD (audio + data), will that work on an os x computer?
[01:16] <desi4life> crap so how do i install these drivers
[01:16] <Eleaf> I'm using k3b
[01:16] <robby> list and explain most of the command tools
[01:16] <ScottLij> I can see the windows boxes on the network but I can't open them
[01:16] <desi4life> the file is on my desktop
[01:16] <daan> piero: do you need to run it periodically?
[01:17] <kitche> Eleaf: umm ask a osx channel
[01:17] <piero> no
[01:17] <iZen> ty
[01:17] <anon2000> hi, i currently have my pc as dual-boot with Vista and Ubuntu, using the GRUB bootloader. i am thinking about installing XP and triple-booting but I'm not sure how I'd go about fixing GRUB after installing XP. I'm assuming that the XP install will destroy GRUB and I will somehow have to restore it. How would I do this?
[01:17] <Eleaf> kitche, it's k3b for linux
[01:17] <wert613> ok so you followed these steps right droglar 1. sudo ndiswrapper -! bcmwl5.inf 2. sudo ndiswrapper -l 3. sudo ndiswrapper -m
[01:17] <nich01> Jordan_U: I have gotten everything that I can think of up and running... one problem with the network card though. Do you know where I would be able to go to see the network interface?
[01:17] <robby> actully guys
[01:17] <robby> 1 min
[01:17] <kitche> Eleaf: they can tell you better then in here if it will work or not
[01:17] <piero> daan: no
[01:17] <Eleaf> because I don't even know if it's working in linux..
[01:17] <droglar> one sec let me do that
[01:17] <Eleaf> ubuntu froze when burning.
[01:17] <robby> i have an ebook for ubuntu
[01:18] <gtwthsf> I have enabled root account and forgot the password of the root. And now when booting, the system founds that there is an error in the file system and int asks root password (forgotten). So the question is, how can I unblock the root password?
[01:18] <robby> lol.. fsckr
[01:18] <Jordan_U> gtwthsf, I have answered your question twice already
[01:18] <robby> what that mean?
[01:18] <Stormx2> gtwthsf: Stop asking. I've answered your question.
[01:18] <piero> gtwthsf: give a command sudo -s
[01:19] <pi3> please give me a word to search for to network between 2 ubuntu pcs
[01:19] <droglar> invalid driver man
[01:19] <piero> ed write password to your account
[01:19] <fsckr> youre in a linux channel and you dont know what fsckr for shame
[01:19] <robby> lol
[01:19] <piero> after write passwd root
[01:19] <attan> hi i have a problem with my ubuntu
[01:19] <Jordan_U> nich01, If it is working it should show up in the network-manager applet at the top right of the screen, if not look in the hardware manager and tell us what chipset it is and maybe we can help get it working
[01:19] <iZen> it keeps saying no directory when i try to type cd ~ <foldername>
[01:19] <attan> i think i have a virus
[01:19] <daan> piero: do it like this at -f script_name 04:00 AM 06.07.07
[01:19] <robby> ok i opened myself up for that one
[01:19] <Stormx2> attan: Unlikely. What symptoms?
[01:19] <pi3> attan: oh
[01:19] <Bothered> attan: What's the problem?
[01:19] <Mc-ntk> Hi
[01:19] <kitche> iZen: ~ takes you to /home/user you don't put anything after ~
[01:19] <anon2000> hi, i currently have my pc as dual-boot with Vista and Ubuntu, using the GRUB bootloader. i am thinking about installing XP and triple-booting but I'm not sure how I'd go about fixing GRUB after installing XP. I'm assuming that the XP install will destroy GRUB and I will somehow have to restore it. How would I do this?
[01:19] <Jordan_U> !virus | attan
[01:19] <ubotu> attan: A/V software is available, however read this to understand why Linux does not have a virus problem: http://librenix.com/?inode=21
[01:19] <Ricket> attan: thanks for telling the whole world, we'll be sure to note that.
[01:19] <Mc-ntk> help me
[01:20] <orbisvicis> aside from fsck, anyway to defragment ? ext3, reiserfs ..
[01:20] <attan> help my ubuntu has a virus
[01:20] <Mc-ntk> my sound wont work?
[01:20] <piero> daan sudo at -f script_name 04:00 AM 06.07.07?
[01:20] <Ltar> iZen: there's no place like ~/
[01:20] <iZen> what if im accessing a file within the home folder.
[01:20] <pike_> iZen: echo ~  to see
[01:20] <daan> piero:  yes
[01:20] <attan> my ubuntu was hacked i think by an organization called the GNAA
[01:20] <Jordan_U> !defrag | orbisvicis
[01:20] <ubotu> orbisvicis: defragmentation is not needed for Ext3 and ReiserFS filesystems. They are much more efficient in their allocation of storage units.
[01:20] <PriceChild> !sound | Mc-ntk
[01:20] <ubotu> Mc-ntk: If you're having problems with sound, first ensure ALSA is selected, by double clicking on the volume control, then File -> Change Device (ALSA Mixer). If that fails, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Sound - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting - http://alsa.opensrc.org/index.php?page=DmixPlugin - For playing audio files, see !Players and !MP3
[01:20] <daan> piero:  make a file and put the commands in it
[01:20] <Mc-ntk> my sound wont work and it says i am hacked by leethaxor4

[01:21] <phpwner> does ubuntu read NTFS partitions?
[01:21] <Bothered> attan: Are you running ubuntu?
[01:21] <pi3> do I have to install something to network between 2 ubuntus?
[01:21] <Mc-ntk> anybodey else get hacked by leethaxor4?
[01:21] <nich01> Jordan_U: I'm not able to get in to the hardware screen.
[01:21] <Bothered> attan: I agree, screenshot
[01:21] <Jordan_U> attan, If you were truly hacked then the only safe thing to do is completely reformat and re-install ( this is true of any operating system )
[01:22] <attan> i don't want to reformat
[01:22] <orbisvicis> no
[01:22] <nich01> attan: Please screenshot. :P
[01:22] <anon2000> phpwner yes
[01:22] <Ricket> attan: pics or it didn't happen

[01:23] <ubotu> attan: Please watch your language and keep this channel family friendly.
[01:23] <daan> Whoops :P
[01:23] <robby> lol
[01:23] <attan> ok i am trying to make a screenshot
[01:23] <pike_> attan: also gimp is handy for that
[01:23] <Jordan_U> hende, have you tried fwcutter before ndis wrapper?
[01:23] <iZen> Thoka, just did that and it says directory doesnt exist when im starring at the folder in the dir right now
[01:23] <Jordan_U> phpwner, np
[01:23] <pi3> attan, have you opened any file that infected you?
[01:23] <PriceChild> attan, don't post links to such images in #ubuntu
[01:23] <Mc-ntk> I got hacked to
[01:23] <Stormx2> I find this so unlikely.
[01:23] <piero> daan file need to .sh exstension?
[01:23] <hende> whats fwcutter
[01:23] <robby> lol
[01:23] <iZen> do i need to do anything if i have spaced characters
[01:24] <daan> piero: don't think so
[01:24] <robby> indeed

[01:24] <piero> ok i try
[01:24] <Mc-ntk> ill stick it on photobucket
[01:24] <hende> jordan can u help me on another channel
[01:24] <robby> but hey maybe
[01:24] <robby> .....
[01:24] <Thokalin> iZen: try typing first letter of dir, check that it is capitalized properly, and then press tab a few times... it should autocomplete
[01:24] <Jordan_U> Stormx2, Trogans are just as easy to write on any operating system, though I agree this still sounds implausible
[01:24] <hende> jordan???
[01:25] <Jordan_U> hende, Why on another channel?
[01:25] <Stormx2> Jordan_U: Actually no. The *nix security model makes it hugely difficult for them to do any damage.
[01:25] <hende> so i can follow what you say
[01:25] <iZen> dude ty.. you need a backlash before spaces
[01:25] <Thokalin> yep :D
[01:25] <Mc-ntk> i also had to run the .exe as root
[01:25] <daan> Stormx2: except delete all your files :P
[01:25] <Thokalin> or quotes work too
[01:25] <ScottLij> how do I transfer a file from an ubuntu box over a network?
[01:25] <pike_> well you could probalby prompt most users for their password and theyd type it in
[01:25] <Jordan_U> Stormx2, Not if you have a naive user that gives it root privaleges
[01:25] <Stormx2> daan: Well yeah...
[01:25] <Bothered> Mc-ntk: exe?
[01:25] <hende> im so messed up. i just installed it yesterday having no idea how to use it i like it so far

[01:25] <Mc-ntk> it ran .exe
[01:25] <hende> i cant even install programs
[01:25] <Mc-ntk> and the .sh

[01:26] <ubotu> hende: Ubuntu can be installed in lots of ways. Please see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation for documentation. Problems during install?

[01:26] <Stormx2> hende: Check ubotu's latter message.
[01:26] <Jordan_U> hende, Undo whatever those instructions said to do and then install bcm43xx-fwcutter from synaptic
[01:26] <hende> they just say repositories not found

[01:27] <James> hi.  I've heard it's possible to boot a computer from a flash drive.  Anyone know how I could achieve this on a powerbook g4 w/out a HD, a 2GB flash drive, and the desire to run Ubuntu?

[01:28] <PriceChild> attan, Enough. We don't want detail, we don't want pictures. EOD
[01:28] <robby> i wonder if i can confuse my puter
[01:28] <daan> piero: you're welcome
[01:28] <daan> attan: lol
[01:28] <Jordan_U> James, That is not going to be easy, it should be possible but not many people are going to have the experience to help you with that :(
[01:28] <vox754> PriceChild, I was about to call the ops!
[01:28] <Stormx2> attan: But we get the idea.
[01:28] <Hawker> pants?
[01:28] <robby> pants
[01:28] <James> jordan_u, any direction you can point me in where I can read up on similar cases?
[01:28] <gnomefreak> vox754: no need but ty for thinking of us :)
[01:28] <attan> it says ubuntu on the background image
[01:28] <Stormx2> PriceChild: Personally I think he's winding us up.
[01:28] <attan> and theres a picture of a penguin
[01:29] <pike_> attan: use gimp to take the screenshot
[01:29] <Mc-ntk> http://s90.photobucket/albums/k247/an97an/?action=view&action=view&current=lol2.jpg <--- the virus before i got all the nasty pictures

[01:30] <attan> gross now theres a movie that just popped up of a man taking a baseball bat and a huge throbbing cock in his butt its gross this virus is horrible >_<
[01:30] <Mc-ntk> help
[01:30] <ScottLij> why can't I connect to a windows box over a network when I could earlier today with no problem?
[01:30] <jvai_> atheros chipset... aint right, my god it aint right
[01:30] <vox754> gnomefreak, I saw that coming
[01:30] <gnomefreak> me too
[01:30] <hende> nobody can take some time to help me hundreds of users and nobody can help me
[01:30] <Slasher-AFK> you have a virus on ubuntu?
[01:30] <NemesisD> ScottLij, same
[01:30] <mrunagi> anyone running kiba dock?
[01:31] <Mc-ntk> and the virus runs on startup
[01:31] <PriceChild> !away > Slasher`
[01:31] <robby> ?
[01:31] <James> k nvm.  I found a site.  for anyone interested, it's pendrivelinux.com
[01:31] <Simetrical> I'm using Ubuntu 7.04, installed a few weeks ago and fully updated, with two screens (not Xinerama).  When I'm using a fullscreen application on my main screen, every once in a while it will become windowed out of nowhere.  It's quite annoying.
[01:31] <PriceChild> !away > Alfred0
[01:31] <gnomefreak> Mc-ntk: what virus is it you think you got on ubuntu?
[01:31] <pike_> hende: what was your question again?
[01:31] <jvai_> lol.. he's got a gnome theme on xp
[01:31] <robby> so what your saying is Slasher = Slasher
[01:31] <Stormx2> hende: Thats because no one knows the answer to your question/solution to your problem, see?
[01:31] <Slasher`> sorry PriceChild the nick Slasher is registered
[01:31] <Mc-ntk> my eyes are going to fall out if i see any more of this foulness on my computer
[01:32] <ScottLij> !away > ScottLij
[01:32] <Simetrical> I think it might be related somehow to what's going on in my other screen, namely XChat.  I could swear that sometimes I see one of the windows there flicker before my fullscreen app drops to windowed mode.
[01:32] <Mc-ntk> HOW DO I REMOVE THINGS FROM STARTING Up
[01:32] <pike_> Mc-ntk: we want screenshots!
[01:32] <Simetrical> I tried Googling, but there aren't really specific enough terms to give me any good results.
[01:32] <Mc-ntk> I GAVE A ***** screen shot

[01:35] <Stormx2> I think they were both winding us up
[01:35] <vox754> PriceChild, is it possible to ban now that he is gone?
[01:36] <Stormx2> vox754: /whowas :D
[01:36] <jvai_> any1 running ubuntu on a thinkpad z60m?
[01:36] <daan> Stormx2: indeed
[01:36] <ohzir> ;O
[01:37] <robby> ah, i remember when i dl ubuntu and my wireless didn't work
[01:37] <vox754> Stormx2, I was more concerned about policy, but works for me.
[01:37] <NemesisD> whats the default port for irc?
[01:37] <teratoma> NemesisD: 6667 , 6697 for SSL
[01:37] <ScottLij> any reason I can't connect to a windows box that I was able to transfer files to earlier today?  I haven't changed any settings and have rebooted both machines numerous times
[01:37] <saxartist> Hi everyone
[01:37] <Jordan_U> !hi | saxartist
[01:37] <ubotu> saxartist: Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu!
[01:37] <OuZo> how long is it supposed to take to re-size a partition using gparted? thanks
[01:37] <robby> then is saw what was  required to get my nic up and running and laughed
[01:38] <NemesisD> teratoma, and that can be changed easily right?
[01:38] <daan> OuZo: it can take quite some time....
[01:38] <saxartist> hahah, Jordan_U, that's quite a trick!  I'm glad ubotu's back.  He was down yesterday
[01:38] <PriceChild> NemesisD, use 8001 for freenode ;)
[01:38] <hende> hey does anyone know why my screen would go white when i tried to turn on desktop effects
[01:38] <Stormx2> daan: I just nmapped him. He's not even running ubuntu.
[01:38] <daan> OuZo: one time it took about 3 hours
[01:38] <qubix-> does anyone know how to actually get true ANSI with bitchx on ubuntu?
[01:38] <daan> Stormx2: nice, i thought so too
[01:39] <pike_> hende: i had that issue when i was using an older version of the nvidia driver
[01:39] <OuZo> daan, i am re-sizing a 110G partition from 110G to 101G & 10G
[01:39] <OuZo> would cfdisk be faster?
[01:39] <phpwner> PriceChild linuxmce is installed on top of ubuntu
[01:39] <teratoma> NemesisD: you can a irc server on whatever port you want
[01:39] <phpwner> does ubuntu 7.04 come with the ntfs driver?
[01:39] <daan> Stormx2: why do those people even come here?
[01:39] <PriceChild> phpwner, I had no idea... either way it isn't supported here.
[01:39] <OuZo> if i cancel the gparted operation will the drive be usless? thanks
[01:39] <Stormx2> daan: Because its fun, apparently.
[01:40] <Slasher`> daan: nothing better to do probably
[01:40] <daan> OuZo: cfdisk would destroy everything
[01:40] <robby> to ask how take in air for survival
[01:40] <hende> somebody told me that it has to have direct rendering on does anyone know how to do that
[01:40] <nj786> hey my camera wont load up on ubuntu
[01:40] <nj786> form USB
[01:40] <nj786> from
[01:40] <daan> Stormx2: well it's my first day at the irc ubuntu channel and I like it very much no fooling around from me
[01:41] <technel> I am trying to add a directory to the PATH (yes, I searched Google). I am using the following command and it works for the current terminal, but it doesn't save it for future ones: PATH=$PATH:/usr/local/share/ratpoison/; export PATH
[01:41] <Vlet> phpwner: yes, but the read only driver
[01:41] <saxartist> phpwner: You can read NTFS, writing is in the univ. repos
[01:41] <pike_> nj786: plug it in and do dmesg | tail    in a terminal
[01:41] <vox754> OuZo, I think GParted is actually just a frontend for such command line utilities. So there is not much gain.
[01:41] <nj786> pike_: meaning
[01:41] <pike_> nj786: you get an sda or sdb or whatnot?
[01:41] <Vlet> I have a small program running via an init.d script.. the program is running under the user xyz... whenever it creates files, they're created with a 700 permission mask, even thought I applied "chmod g+s" to the directory in which they're created... why?
[01:41] <Stormx2> daan: Cool! Hope to see you around lots - I've been going here for a couple of years now.
[01:41] <Jordan_U> !ntfs-3g | phpwner
[01:41] <ubotu> phpwner: ntfs-3g is a Linux driver which allows read/write access to NTFS partitions. Installation instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MountingWindowsPartitions
[01:41] <hende> how can i enable direct rendering
[01:41] <ubuntu_> hola
[01:41] <Jordan_U> hende, What GPU?
[01:41] <pike_> ubuntu_: hey
[01:41] <hende> huh?
[01:42] <DanaG> Is there any way to get DRI on S3 Savage?
[01:42] <ubuntu_> alguien habla espaol
[01:42] <robby> hey ubuntu
[01:42] <PriceChild> technel, in my ~/.bashrc I have PATH=~/bin:"${PATH}"
[01:42] <PriceChild> !es | ubuntu_
[01:42] <daan> Stormx2: Nice, haven't even been using Linux that long I liked Archlinux till one day it crashed after an update...
[01:42] <ubotu> ubuntu_: Si busca ayuda en Espaol por favor entre en los canales #ubuntu-es, #kubuntu-es o #edubuntu-es, all obtendr mas ayuda.
[01:42] <nj786> pike_: ok what do i type in terminal?
[01:42] <DanaG> (4 megs VRAM -- bleh)
[01:42] <Jordan_U> hende, What Video card do you have?
[01:42] <vox754> Stormx2, daan why don't you both get married (off topic)
[01:42] <nj786> pike_: tell me exactly what to type so i dont mess up
[01:42] <hende> i think its called a extreme
[01:42] <Stormx2> vox754: Yeah why not. To vegas!
[01:42] <hende> its a compaq v2000
[01:43] <technel> PriceChild: So would that cause "export PATH" to work properly?
[01:43] <Jordan_U> hende, intel?
[01:43] <daan> Stormx2: Are you a man?
[01:43] <robby> lol
[01:43] <Stormx2> Unfortunately :(
[01:43] <hende> im not sure
[01:43] <Jordan_U> hende, What is the output of "glxinfo | grep direct" ?
[01:43] <robby> be a MAN
[01:43] <pike_> nj786: dmesg | tail    or just dmesg the tail just means you wont have to wait for it to scroll to the bottom
[01:43] <PriceChild> technel, well replace "~/bin" with whatever you want to add to path and it'd work fine
[01:43] <Stormx2> Unfortunately =D
[01:43] <robby> lol "MAN"
[01:43] <daan> Stormx2: Are you homosexual?
[01:43] <qubix-> can anyone tell me the difference between gtk1 and gtk2??? can i use either types of these themes with gnome?
[01:43] <PriceChild> !offtopic
[01:43] <ubotu> #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome!
[01:43] <nj786> pike_: sudo dmesg?
[01:43] <technel> PriceChild: Any idea why "export PATH" wouldn't work though? I thought that saves the PATH env var?
[01:43] <daan> Ok i'm sorry
[01:43] <kitche> qubix-: well gtk2 is the new gtk :)
[01:43] <pike_> nj786: if ya want
[01:44] <kitche> technel: export PATH just saves it until you either logout or shutdown/reboot etc
[01:44] <nj786> pike_: ok i typed it now what
[01:44] <qubix-> kitche, well im using 7.04 so im guessing any gtk2 theme will work? :) lol
[01:44] <daan> OuZo: if you want to keep your data safe use gparted
[01:44] <desi4life> i need help
[01:44] <OuZo> ok thanks all

[01:46] <daan> OuZo: no it doesn't as far as I know
[01:46] <firebird_619> Could someone please help me get my monitor to a resolution of 1680x1050? I have reconfigured x several times, added the resolution to xorg.conf manually, and tried modlines, but nothing works?
[01:46] <Jordan_U> desi4life, Don't install from ati's website, it won't update properly, just keep things the way they are ( you have the drivers you need installed already )
[01:46] <nj786> pike_: where is it?
[01:47] <OuZo> daan, ext3 both of them
[01:47] <robby> sigh
[01:47] <OuZo> ok thanks
[01:47] <Jordan_U> firebird_619, What GPU?

[01:47] <pike_> nj786: so mkdir /mnt/camer; sudo mount -o umask=000 /dev/sda1 /mnt/camera; ln -s /mnt/camera ~/Desktop/camera   <--might work
[01:47] <mrunagi> wow kiba dock is NOT stable
[01:47] <mrunagi> lol

[01:48] <Jordan_U> firebird_619, Have you tried the restricted driver manager?
[01:48] <hende>  no network driver
[01:48] <OuZo> thanks daan you have been a great help :)
[01:48] <nj786> pike_: permission denied
[01:48] <dixee> hola
[01:48] <dixee> hay alguien
[01:48] <firebird_619> Jordan_U: Yes, I have also tried the installing the drivers from nvidia.com.
[01:48] <pike_> nj786: sorry sudo the first two commands
[01:48] <dixee> de que hablan
[01:48] <daan> OuZo: sure thing
[01:48] <Jordan_U> hende, It should be just one line, like "direct rendering = yes"
[01:48] <dixee> no hay nadie que hable espaol
[01:48] <joker__> can i get some screen shot links so i can see the diffrence ?
[01:49] <joker__> im new so yea

[01:49] <ubotu> dixee: Si busca ayuda en Espaol por favor entre en los canales #ubuntu-es, #kubuntu-es o #edubuntu-es, all obtendr mas ayuda.
[01:49] <dixee> hola
[01:49] <hende> it said comman not found
[01:49] <c_lisp> is there a way to format a drive ntfs on linux?
[01:49] <Jordan_U> firebird_619, Are you sure that those drivers are in use currently?
[01:49] <daan> Stormx2: what does this mean:  you need to be authed to services to send me messages
[01:49] <nj786> pike_: and its all 1 command
[01:49] <Jordan_U> !register | dann
[01:49] <ubotu> dann: Information about registering your Freenode nick is at http://freenode.net/faq.shtml#contents-userregistration
[01:50] <hende> command not found jordan
[01:50] <Ominous> hmm is it best to use ubuntus repo or compiz's repo to install compiz from?
[01:50] <robby> you know, if spent money on IDEs and books of all languages and the hardest thing is thinking of something to make
[01:50] <Stormx2> daan: What ubotu put.
[01:50] <vox754> joker__, browse them on the web, check out "gnome", "KDE", "xfce", even wikipedia has pictures.
[01:50] <Jordan_U> hende, Are you sure you type it in correctly?
[01:50] <firebird_619> Jordan_U: you mean the ones from Restricted Driver Manager. I just tried the ones from nvidia.com so I think they are the ones currently in use.
[01:50] <daan> Stormx2: ok i'll check it
[01:50] <tannerld> how can I use a ssh key to connect to my hosting server?
[01:50] <hende> glxinfo | grepdirect
[01:50] <kitche> Ominous: does compiz-fusion even have a repo yet? not sure if compiz repo is still up
[01:51] <joker__> thank you vox754
[01:51] <nj786> pike_: ?
[01:51] <Ominous> kitche: dont know
[01:51] <Jordan_U> hende, There is a space after "grep"
[01:51] <Jordan_U> hende, glxinfo | grep direct
[01:51] <hende> says no for direct rendering
[01:51] <h1st0> 3 minutes till I blow out my 200gig and load a fresh feisty install.
[01:51] <joker__> vox754, in your stand point of view witch  is the best ?
[01:52] <robby> good thing there is not a book on program/software ideas, cause i would of wasted the money on it
[01:52] <Jordan_U> hende, What does hardware info say your graphics card is?
[01:52] <vox754> joker__, gnome is solid, stable, but boring. Kde has many features, and is flashy. I use gnome because I don't want to mess up my system right now.
[01:52] <hende> im not sure hold on
[01:52] <desi4life> Daan: is there a way to tell if beryl is working or not
[01:52] <vox754> !best > joker__
[01:52] <Slasher`> is it possible to always force mount an "unclean" ntfs drive by just simply right click>mount instead of having to use the command every time
[01:53] <gtwths1> I'm sorry about the responce speed of my last question, but anyway I still got the same problem and I haven't got the break though resuls yet. The problem is that when booring thet system (PC), the boot system tells that there is a problems in the file system and the promt is asking the root password (the root password has been enabled in the Ubuntu system, but that value of the password is missing). So how can I change the password befor
[01:53] <daan> desi4life: well if you don't see wobbly windows then it probably doesn't work
[01:53] <xoqa> i've installed gentoo and i'm having a problem with my processor overheating and then my computer shutting down. i'm wondering what comes with ubuntu that keeps this from happening?
[01:53] <nj786> pike_: it says file exists
[01:53] <nj786> something
[01:53] <hende> intel extreme jordan
[01:53] <desi4life> hmmm
[01:54] <desi4life> the steps u told me to follow i did
[01:54] <kitche> gtwths1: either boot to livecd and change the root passwd or sudo passwd root should do it as well as your user
[01:54] <Jordan_U> firebird_619, First of all I recommend that you don't use the drivers from nvidia.com, secondly have you configured your xorg.conf to actually use the drivers?
[01:54] <vox754> !prefix > hende
[01:54] <nich0s> Would anyone be able to suggest a good FTP Server?
[01:54] <joker__> vok754, is kde more problems and easyer to mess up my system if i use it ?
[01:54] <daveux> Hi, I can't boot the feisty live cd on my thinkpad t43. It looks like it tries to boot off the cd (it shows the underscore) then gives up and goes right to windows.
[01:54] <Bothered> nich0s: gFTP
[01:54] <hende> intel extreme jordan
[01:54] <Slasher`> n1c0las: proftpd
[01:54] <kitche> joker__: it's hard to mess your system up with a desktop environment
[01:54] <daan> desi4life: if you have some kind of vnc I can look at it for you
[01:54] <Slasher`> oopss
[01:54] <Slasher`> nich0s*
[01:54] <kitche> joker__: gnome has less features kde has more xfce is in between
[01:55] <Stormx2> kitche: That's a huge oversimplification.
[01:55] <joker__> who in here use's KDE ?
[01:55] <Jordan_U> hende, try running: "sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg -phigh" and choose i810 when asked for a driver
[01:55] <Slasher`> joker__: I use both
[01:55] <hende> intel extreme JORDAN
[01:55] <firebird_619> Jordan_U: Do you mean in xorg.conf it reading nvidia as the driver, or is there something else I have to do? Also, how do I get back to using Restricted Driver Manager Drivers instead of the nvidia.com drivers. I just tried them to see if they would solve my problem.
[01:55] <hende> sorry hold onn
[01:55] <slocate> hey, I just set up ubuntu for my sister and she wants her music - I have all sorts of good file transfer stuff set up, but all of her music is itunes m4p (aac) and is encrypted.  Am I pretty much SOL?
[01:55] <joker__> wtf how u use both ?
[01:55] <Jordan_U> joker__, #kubuntu for KDE
[01:55] <Slasher`> I have both installed and just switch and change
[01:55] <StarManta> question about installation: the installer/livecd should be happy with USB keyboards, correct?
[01:55] <vox754> joker__, no, but it is all relative... also, Kde uses the Qt toolkit that has some license issues, so... try it, you'll have no problem. Besides, you can use gnome and install kde later and try them both (or more) desktop environments.
[01:55] <Stormx2> joker__: Spell, please.
[01:55] <slocate> I'd like to conver the m4ps to FLAC
[01:55] <Slasher`> install ubuntu with GNOME then sudo apt-het install kubuntu-desktop
[01:55] <slocate> *convert
[01:56] <desi4life> daan: can you hell me setup vnc
[01:56] <Slasher`> then at the login screen you can pick your session
[01:56] <desi4life> kinda new to this ubuntu/linux stuff
[01:56] <daan> desi4life: you know what vnc is?
[01:56] <robby> OMG! there is a program called brain storm that you use for obvious brainstorming..lol
[01:56] <joker__> Stormx2, wat do you mean spell ?
[01:57] <Nyle> I just downloaded the kubuntu 7.04 cd
[01:57] <Nyle> it only contains 3.5.6 of kde
[01:57] <hende> sas a whole bunch of stuff and that xserver is not installed and no info is available
[01:57] <daan> desi4life: I think it's best if you try this http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Ubuntu:Feisty#How_to_install_Beryl_.28ATI.29
[01:57] <desi4life> i think i do...it allows you to see my screen
[01:57] <Nyle> is it possible to somehow install kde 3.5.7 on kubuntu?
[01:57] <daan> desi4life: indeed
[01:57] <Stormx2> joker__: I mean, take a little care with what you are typing. People are trying to help you, the least you can do is make your questions a little less ambiguous.
[01:57] <Jordan_U> hende, as for your wireless problems, do you know how to undo the instructions that you followed on ubuntuforums.org ?
[01:57] <Ominous> where is the source.list file?
[01:57] <hende> no i dont
[01:57] <pike_> Nyle: id /join #kbuntu   the question is welcome here but you might get a better response
[01:57] <Stormx2> Ominous: /etc/apt/souces.list
[01:58] <pike_> Nyle: er.  #kubuntu
[01:58] <Nyle> pike_: thanks
[01:58] <hende> you think i can do a fresh install and you can help me wit my problems
[01:58] <vox754> joker__, you are not asking for direct support so please go to #ubuntu-offtopic to question other users in a more relaxed way, thanks
[01:58] <Jordan_U> slocate, There are programs to strip the DRM off of itunes music
[01:58] <kitche> Nyle: well feisty has 3.5.7
[01:58] <c_lisp> how do you change a usb ext3 drive that automounted to be read write and execute by all users?
[01:58] <Nyle> who?
[01:58] <hende> jordan you think i can do a fresh install and you can help me
[01:59] <Nyle> what is feisty
[01:59] <Slasher`> fiesty = ubuntu 7.04
[01:59] <Jordan_U> hende, If that would be easier for you sure
[01:59] <Nyle> so what is kubuntu?

[02:01] <NemesisD> the ip of the computer not the outside ip address (excuse my terminology)
[02:01] <derek01> i installed ubuntu on an external hard drive and it died. Grub went onto the laptop's hard drive, but since the grub files themselves were on the hard drive it errors out. So i need to install just grub onto my laptop hd or take off grub...
[02:01] <slocate> Jordan_U: I tried that 'playfair' (hymn) one and it didn't seem to work, could you recommend one or is that against policy?
[02:01] <Bigcheese> I just installed openssh-server and openssh-client on my Ubuntu 7.0.4 box. I can connect localy using "ssh user@localhost" and it works fine, but if i try to use my external ip, the computer doesn't send anything (not even a port closed responce)
[02:01] <Frogzoo> NemesisD: ifconfig
[02:02] <Pelo> derek01,  do you have winxp on the laptop ?
[02:02] <derek01> yea
[02:02] <Bigcheese> external == 192.168 range
[02:02] <derek01> but i cant boot it cause grub wont load
[02:02] <Pelo> derek01, hold on
[02:02] <Jordan_U> slocate, I don't think it is against policy ( since you are doing for fair use ) but I don't have any more information
[02:02] <derek01> ok
[02:02] <Slasher`> derek01: getting grub errors?
[02:02] <derek01> yea
[02:02] <derek01> but i know why
[02:02] <StarManta> ok how about any docs relating to installation?
[02:02] <Pelo> derek01,  performing a windows repair install will restore your MBR and solve your problem  but follow the instructions exactly   http://www.michaelstevenstech.com/XPrepairinstall.htm
[02:02] <Slasher`> try the grub ultimate repair cd (something to that sort)
[02:02] <Slasher`> let me see if i can find a link
[02:02] <derek01> it didnt
[02:02] <StarManta> or any response at all would be a start
[02:03] <derek01> i already restored once
[02:03] <pi3> what happened with attan?
[02:03] <slocate> Jordan_U: ok,. thanks
so u think i should a fresh install
[02:03] <Slasher`> damn
[02:03] <slocate> s/',.
[02:03] <joker__> Slasher`, where can i get a copy of KDE ???
[02:04] <Stormx2> joker__: sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop
[02:04] <Jordan_U> hende, If you havn't got any important data then sure
[02:04] <hende> k
[02:04] <derek01> i already reinstalled but i have stuff on XP i cant lose
[02:04] <hende> i just got it yesterday <Jordan__U>
[02:04] <derek01> including software
[02:04] <derek01> so formating is out of the question
[02:04] <joker__> wat does that mean Stormx2
[02:04] <daan> joker__: you should execute that in a terminal
[02:04] <Slasher`> type that into a terminal window joker__
[02:05] <derek01> i need to make a seperate boot partition for grub on my hard drive then boot hte live cd and and tell it to install the grub boot files into the partition
[02:05] <joker__> ok sorry thanks im new :(
[02:05] <Stormx2> joker__: *sigh*. Run it in a terminal.
[02:05] <Slasher`> no problem
[02:05] <hende> im gonna reinstall <Jordan__U>
[02:05] <pi3> joker__ by that you are installing KDE, you can start KDE by selecting it during the splash
[02:05] <Pelo> joker__,  never appologise for being new, appologise for not having joined sooner
[02:06] <Slasher`> indeed
[02:06] <derek01> anyone tell me how to do that
[02:06] <derek01> ?
[02:06] <joker__> ok sorry for not joining sooner :P
[02:06] <Slasher`> derek01: you said the grub repair cd didnt work?
[02:06] <intelikey> i have a "unbootable" issue with dapper drake.  http://ubuntu.pastebin.us/37950
[02:06] <derek01> grub repair cd?
[02:06] <intelikey> seems that it can't make a usable initrd.img because depmod is hosed  any clue-by-four ?
[02:06] <somian> Hullo. I want to add some env var defines that will be present in my X login session (even for GUI apps) and so i guess i need to use a custom .xsession file. How can I write one making sure that what Ubuntu does now (no .xsession) is preserved?
[02:06] <intelikey> error is: tty1 [root@~]  depmod
[02:06] <intelikey> depmod: QM_MODULES: Function not implemented
[02:06] <joker__> brb
[02:07] <Pelo> derek01,  first you need to get your laptop to boot xp on it's own,   do the windows repair install
[02:07] <[Al] chemist_ex> so no one can help me with my sound problem?
[02:07] <Slasher`> i cant remember the exact name but there is a cd to just restore grub
[02:07] <Jack_Sparrow> super grub repair
[02:07] <derek01> it cant boot XP by itself, becuase grub took over the Boot sequence and i cant do anything about it
[02:07] <derek01> pelo
[02:07] <mrunagi> do you have to run kde to run kxdocker?
[02:07] <Jack_Sparrow> fdisk /mbr will restore windows boot
[02:08] <Pelo> derek01,  performing windows repair install, will remove grub from the MBR and let you boot windows
[02:08] <Jordan_U> derek01, You can overwrite grub with an windows install CD ( there is also a package to do it from Ubuntu )
[02:08] <derek01> pelo: it didnt
[02:08] <cdubya> fdisk /mbr still works?
[02:08] <derek01> Pelo: ice dont it twice
[02:08] <Jack_Sparrow> yep
[02:08] <cdubya> I thought it was fixmbr in a recovery console
[02:08] <derek01> ive*
[02:08] <Pelo> derek01,  follow Jack_Sparrow  's instructions
[02:08] <derek01> i need to do it through ubuntu
[02:08] <Jordan_U> cdubya, That's what I always hear
[02:08] <cdubya> heh
[02:08] <derek01> or another bootable cd
[02:08] <Jack_Sparrow> sgr cd
[02:08] <cdubya> well, that's what M$ says, anyways
[02:09] <Jordan_U> derek01, Ok, let me find the package...
[02:09] <intelikey> nobody on the depmod thing ?
[02:09] <Iwizzard> Is there a way of switching desktops when terminal server is in full screen mode?
[02:09] <Ominous> where can we get more themes for ubuntu?
[02:09] <Jordan_U> derek01, It's named ms-sys , it's in universe
[02:09] <Jordan_U> Ominous, art.gonome.org
[02:09] <Jordan_U> Ominous, art.gnome.org
[02:09] <Pelo> Iwizzard,   alt+f7 I think
[02:10] <Jack_Sparrow> Ominous:  gnome-look.org
[02:10] <Bothered> Jordan_U: I never noticed that package - I'll remember that in future
[02:10] <Ramzi> How come when I click Synaptic Package Manager it tells me Failed to run /usr/sbin/synaptic as user root.  Unable to copy the user's Xauthorization file.
[02:10] <Pelo> somian,  you want ##linux or app specialised channels
 when i get done reinstalling can we use a private window for you to help me with the wifi... so i can actually read what ur saying
[02:10] <Jack_Sparrow> Ominous: drop the tar onto the open theme manager...
[02:10] <Ominous> tyu
[02:10] <Slasher`> who needed help fixing grub
[02:11] <Slasher`> Super Grub Disk
[02:11] <Jordan_U> Bothered, Yea, I was surprised such a thing existed when I found it :)
[02:11] <Slasher`> thats what i used
[02:11] <Jordan_U> hende, #ubuntu-classroom is for low traffic support
[02:11] <Jack_Sparrow> Cool.. a quiter room
[02:12] <Iwizzard> #ubuntu-emty is werry quiet
[02:12] <hende> will u go there with me or should i just ask them

[02:12] <Slasher`> derek01: http://supergrub.forjamari.linex.org/ thats what i used
[02:12] <Jordan_U> hende, I am already there :)
[02:12] <DarkDancer> ooopsie, drive-by
[02:12] <lousygarua> hello, using seahorse password and key manager thing - i've accidently pushed "always allow" instead of "only once" when i was asked whether to give an application access to a key or not. how to i disable the always allow?
[02:13] <nich0s> How would I uninstall a pkg/
[02:13] <nich0s> If I used apt-get?
[02:13] <lousygarua> nich0s: try apt-get remove PACKGE
[02:13] <Slasher`> sudo apt-get remove packagename
[02:13] <lashmoov2> what's the name of the mythbuntu channel?
[02:13] <pi3> should I use SMB to share a folder between 2 linux?
[02:14] <nich0s> I love you people. :)
[02:14] <rustalot> an SVG isn't working properly: when I open it in Inkscape or try to view in Konqueror, it shows all black. is this just me? http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Image:Gnome-globe.svg
[02:14] <lousygarua> pi3: maybe consider NFS, i have no idea how to do that though
[02:14] <lousygarua> pi3: if u got windowses on ur LAN use SMB so they can access the folder too. That's waht i do
[02:16] <cdubya> pi3, System > Administration > Shared Folders
[02:16] <medfly> im trying to use skype and for som reason it says alsa mixer timed out.. and skype is whining too, is there anything i can do about it?
[02:16] <robby> great ubuntu bible dl is going to take forever
[02:16] <Jordan_U> rustalot, It opens fine for me in FF and inkscape
[02:16] <rustalot> arg
[02:16] <Budda> hi, using ubuntu server, if i plug a usb external hdd in the kernal recognises it, but how can i get it to be auto mounted for access at the shell? (ie not in gnome)
[02:16] <rolfen> medfly if i remember well there is some setting in skype
[02:16] <pi3> thank you, cdubya, lousygarua
[02:16] <cdubya> np
[02:16] <rustalot> Budda: you need to use the mount command
[02:17] <Budda> rustalot: i can do that manually, but i want it to be automated
[02:17] <rolfen> medfly you can select OSS instead of ALSA in skype
[02:17] <Budda> rustalot: not sure how its done "properly"
[02:17] <robby> anyone here have a  copy of the ubuntu bible they can upload to me?
[02:17] <Slasher`> -afk to bed
[02:17] <rolfen> dont remember where that setting was though
[02:17] <rolfen> somewhere in the menu... i forgot
[02:17] <medfly> rolfen, ill look around, thanks
[02:17] <Stormx2> Budda: If you can see it in gnome, it's been mounted. What is the issue?
[02:17] <rustalot> Budda: maybe you could use fstab? I don't know if it'll autodetect
[02:17] <rolfen> np
[02:17] <Jordan_U> rolfen, Why would you use OSS instead of ALSA?
[02:18] <medfly> rolfen, (once i figure out how to get to the menu)
[02:18] <rolfen> he's having trouble with alsa
[02:18] <Budda> Stormx2: i've not got gnome installed
[02:18] <rolfen> haha
[02:18] <medfly> haha, got it
[02:18] <Budda> rustalot: just found some info about triggers - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UsbDriveDoSomethingHowto
[02:20] <gtwths1> Thank you very much mrs/mss Kitche, the final question is, where can I found a step by step instructions how to change the root password while booting from a CD. Anyway, is Ubuntu (or any linux distro security) based on a boot CD security)
[02:21] <rolfen> medfly i found this : http://www.skype.com/help/guides/soundsetup_linux.html
[02:21] <rolfen> i dont know if it will help
[02:21] <ScottLij> why can't I access windows machines that I was able to write files to earlier? any reason why it would change for no apparent reason?
[02:21] <Jordan_U> gtwths1, Changing the root password is easy, just mount the partition Ubuntu is installed on and run: sudo chroot /mountpoint passwd
[02:22] <rustalot> gtwths1: just a guss, but what if you did sudo passwd?
[02:23] <StainYo> I'm new to this OS.. I'm using Pioneer..  Everything works great but how to I enable printer sharing & file sharing with samba?
[02:24] <lousygarua> StainYo: what's pioneer?
[02:24] <sparr4> hi
[02:24] <str4> sup?
[02:24] <str4> I'll soon find out
[02:24] <sparr4> investigating
[02:24] <StainYo> Pioneer OS
[02:24] <mrsno__> StainYo in current feisty right click the folder > sharing
[02:24] <grego_> hi there
[02:24] <mrsno__> and enable sharing when prompted
[02:24] <grego_> can anyone help me to make an .deb package from a driver
[02:24] <mrsno__> !smb
[02:24] <StainYo> Pioneer Linux based on ubuntu
[02:24] <ubotu> samba is is the way to cooperate with Windows environments. Links with more info: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MountWindowsSharesPermanently and http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/serverguide/C/windows-networking.html - Samba can be administered via the web with SWAT
[02:24] <StainYo> thanks
[02:25] <pi3> what is the wild card in firestarter?
[02:25] <braddcadd> gcc -o gnu  -Wall gnu.c `pkg-config gtk+-2.0 --cflags --libs` -I/usr/include/libglade-2.0 -lxml -lglade-2.0
[02:25] <lousygarua> pi3: which wildcard?
[02:25] <braddcadd> that yields a missing lxml error
[02:25] <braddcadd> any help? i'm new to gcc
[02:25] <thepower27> hi all
[02:25] <rolfen> hello
[02:25] <thepower27> I just installed ubutnu to my notebook
[02:26] <Bothered> pi3: Are you trying to configure firestarter to work with samba?
[02:26] <lousygarua> braddcadd: it means u just don't have libxml.so or smt like that
[02:26] <braddcadd> /usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lxml     is the exact error
[02:26] <rolfen> cool
[02:26] <cdubya> yeah, you don't have it installed likely
[02:26] <thepower27> is there a way to do panaramic desktop like windows can?
[02:26] <cdubya> braddcadd
[02:26] <braddcadd> lousygarua: ok, let me check
[02:26] <pi3> lousygarua: example I want to allow connections for SMB to 192.168.1.*
[02:26] <Ominous> bah why do so few login screens have a user list
[02:26] <Bothered> pi3: See http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=190542
[02:26] <braddcadd> lousygarua: why do they call it lxml instead of libxml?
[02:26] <Bothered> it's 192.168.0/24
[02:27] <Bothered> I think
[02:27] <pi3> Bothered: oh, ok thanks
[02:27] <GasBrander> heey all
[02:27] <lousygarua> pi3: i use <IP_ADDRESS>/24
[02:27] <GasBrander> how can i start my php irc bot?
[02:27] <xenex> Does anyone know why I have to keep on typing "xhost +" before I start firestarter?
[02:27] <Bothered> pi3: I would still check out that thread in the forums - I needed to edit a configuration file
[02:27] <lousygarua> braddcadd: the gcc automatically adds the lib when u specify it with -l
[02:27] <Jordan_U> thepower27, What exactly is a panoramic desktop?
[02:27] <thepower27> you have dual monitors and you can move the mouse from one side to the other
[02:28] <thepower27> not have the same thing on both monitors
[02:28] <cdubya> pi3, you used to have to change the hosts.allow in the smb.conf....not sure if you still have to or not......
[02:28] <rolfen> thepower i found this: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=240150
[02:28] <rolfen> dunno if it'll work for your laptop though
[02:28] <n2diy> !twinview | thepower27

[02:28] <braddcadd> lousygarua: i have libxml1 & libxml2 installed according to dpkg get selections
[02:29] <pi3> cdubya, well it works now, but I was feeling kind of unconfortable allowing connections to all the ips out there
[02:29] <rolfen> thepower gosh that looks complicated
[02:29] <lousygarua> braddcadd: maybe try -lxml1 instead of -lxml
[02:29] <cdubya> pi3, you're not forwarding anything to the machine running samba are you?
[02:29] <lousygarua> braddcadd: what r u trying to compile? is it ur project or someone else's?
[02:30] <medfly> i used to have this problem with sound that i needed to kill esd, how do i do that?
[02:30] <pi3> cdubya, eer i dont' know
[02:30] <lymeca> For Gutsy Gibbon, the default window manager will be COmpiz Fusion.  Intel video cards with Free drivers are going to be fine, but what if the user doesn't have Nvidia or ATI's proprietary graphics drivers installed?  Will it fall back to Metacity for the wm?
[02:30] <braddcadd> lousygarua: someone else's, it's the simpliest glade/C app out there
[02:30] <medfly> it says its running, i cant see it
[02:30] <rolfen> medfly you want to know how to kill esd?
[02:30] <medfly> yes rolfen
[02:30] <rolfen> you should see it with ps -aux
[02:30] <medfly> oh, ok
[02:30] <Jordan_U> lymeca, Yes, but #ubuntu+1 for Gutsy
[02:30] <braddcadd> lousygarua: just trying to step through the code to see it work, i'm stepping with kdbg
[02:30] <rolfen> in the terminal
[02:31] <Invisionfree> Excuse me. I book into Ubuntu normally and it doesn't load, it stops without running the splash screen. Can someone highlight me with a solution
[02:31] <nexous> Can I install ubuntu via live cd in text mode?
[02:31] <vox754> nexous, no
[02:31] <rolfen> you can kill it with killall esd
[02:31] <medfly> thanks rolfen
[02:31] <Tehk> Can anyone recommend an app that can create audio CD ISOs?(rather then burn them)
[02:31] <nexous> vox754: thanks.

[02:31] <ubotu> nexous: The Alternate CD (available as of Dapper) is the classical text-mode installation CD. Use it if you wish to upgrade via CD, or for an "expert" mode install. For normal installs, use the Desktop CD, which is also a "Live" CD - See also !Minimal

[02:32] <lousygarua> pi3: in my lan i only allowed <IP_ADDRESS> <IP_ADDRESS> etc... in firestarter
[02:32] <Budda> aum: maybe ffmpeg
[02:32] <rolfen> Innvision what are the last messages you see on the screen?
[02:32] <lousygarua> pi3: instead of the whole subnet
[02:32] <hende> jordan__U iam at 90 percent
[02:32] <Jordan_U> aum, mencoder
[02:32] <cdubya> pi3, yeah, you can tell it in the config exactly which IPs you want to permit
[02:32] <Invisionfree> rolfen: Nothing. It is a blank screen and nothing happens. Highlight me with Invisionfree please.
[02:32] <hende> you want to go to that other room in about 2 min?
[02:32] <cdubya> pi3, and what protocols too
[02:32] <braddcadd> lousygarua: http://cybernetics.freewebspace.com/glade/
[02:32] <aum> Jordan_U, ubuntu mencoder doesn't have the codecs for flv

[02:34] <rolfen> Invisionfree ok thanks
[02:34] <lousygarua> cdubya: pi3: well as i said i set up a few rules in firestater, each for each computer's ip
[02:34] <lousygarua> cdubya: pi3: also we got a wireless lan, so in case the WEP is cracked i disabled DHCP
[02:35] <rolfen> Invisionfree do you get past grub?
[02:35] <gregorygreg> yo what's up ubuntu people??
[02:35] <braddcadd> lousygarua: well, it worked, the error went away, thanks
[02:35] <cdubya> lousygarua, kewl
[02:35] <braddcadd> lousygarua: l-lib to gcc was the trick ;)
[02:35] <Bothered> Invisionfree: Have you checked the integrity of the CD?
[02:35] <hende> k
 can you go to the other channel
[02:35] <lousygarua> braddcadd: what change in the commandline solved it?
[02:36] <Jordan_U> hende, never left :)
[02:36] <hende> k well im clickin over to there
[02:36] <braddcadd> lousygarua: -lxml2 worked where -lxml didn;t
[02:36] <rolfen> kz by guys gtg
[02:36] <braddcadd> lousygarua: but now something is crazy when stepping through the code
[02:37] <lousygarua> braddcadd: well u did say u have libxml2 and not libxml so u have -lxml2
[02:37] <braddcadd> lousygarua: when i click a widget, it says the callback function is missing, but it really isn't
[02:37] <lousygarua> braddcadd: maybe u don't use the same xml library as they showed on the example? or it's not xml related
[02:38] <braddcadd> lousygarua: yeah, i think the example is old, libxml2 must be the newest version
[02:38] <mrunagi> is there a way to reset anything and all things related to wvdial so i can start over trying to get my bluetooth to work

[02:40] <lousygarua> braddcadd: i never coded on gtk, but give me the exact error i might think of something
[02:40] <`Nick> daan: it does it every time, sometimes it just sticks - other times it finishes and throws an error that's so bland it could mean dang near anything
[02:41] <daan> `Nick: did you try gparted?
[02:41] <welemski> daan, Budda: any libraries to include?
[02:41] <`Nick> daan: gparted?
[02:41] <rathel> Is there a basKet equivalent for gnome?
[02:41] <daan> `Nick: you can run it from a livecd
[02:41] <daan> `Nick: http://gparted.sourceforge.net/livecd.php
[02:42] <JasonAllen> sup
