[04:33] <SeaPhor|game> rohn, try type this->     /join #evolution
[04:33] <hittingpilot> Trent_: I know what hang is, I was referring to what you asked was hanging?
[04:33] <pete_> Bookman, can you pop the xp cd in the ubuntu box?
[04:34] <Trent_> hittingpilot: oh, is the boot sequence hanging somewhere?
[04:34] <rohn> SeaPhor|game: in where?
[04:34] <SeaPhor|game> right where you are typing
[04:34] <Trent_> hittingpilot: and where, and what is displayed, etc.
[04:34] <Bookman> pete_: sorry, I don't like hacks.  I'm installing XP again.
[04:34] <hittingpilot> Trent_:Right now the boot sequence is fine, I haven't yet installed 7
[04:34] <SeaPhor|game> right where you are typing rohn
[04:34] <pete_> Bookman, ok, have fun!
[04:34] <liminggang> what's this
[04:34] <arry> ole
[04:34] <Trent_> hittingpilot: I thought you said you were having some problems with it booting?
[04:35] <rohn> oh, ok
[04:35] <Bookman> pete_: thanks though, much appreciated.
[04:35] <semsem> hello
[04:35] <semsem> everybody
[04:35] <pete_> Bookman, no problem, I could have fixed your problem though
[04:35] <semsem> :)
[04:35] <Trent_> hittingpilot: You mentioned it not booting anymore if you add Windows 7 to the list.  So I assumed you meant you had attempted a Windows 7 installation before.
[04:35] <hossam> hello I have set up a directory for samba share with these parameters   browseable = yes  read only = no  guest ok = yes chmod 775 but i cannot write to the directory from a windows machine whats wrong?
[04:35] <hittingpilot> Trent_:This is the third iteration of this system, the first 2 involved windows installed first
[04:36] <Bookman> pete_: No, it should work as is.  Not an issue for you .  Just the developers.
[04:36] <pete_> Bookman, its hard to make software for companies who don't release any information or code though
[04:36] <pete_> you know, as a third party.
[04:36] <rohn> SeaPhor|game: #evolution says can't talk there
[04:37] <hittingpilot> Trent_:after i installed Ubuntu on top of the Windows installation, a default menu item was added for Windows, this would never boot correctky
[04:37] <hittingpilot> correctly*
[04:37] <pete_> Bookman, anyway. XP is a fine OS as far as im concerned
[04:37] <Bookman> pete_: I understand.....I just have too many machines to bandaid to make this solution work.
[04:37] <rohn> SeaPhor|game: it says "cannot send to channel
[04:37] <pete_> Bookman, yea, and XP is obviously the best windows usually.
[04:37] <Trent_> hittingpilot: Okay, I'm a bit confused then.  What is not booting, when you add Windows 7 to the list?  Is grub not starting up?  Is ubuntu not starting up?
[04:38] <Bookman> pete_: yup, I agree.  I'll try again another time with Linux.
[04:38] <pete_> take care bookman,
[04:38] <aaron> need help setting up postfix with mysql.
[04:38] <pete_> ok, so the only thing that does not work for me is my laptop volume buttons does anyone have any ideas?
[04:39] <hittingpilot1> Trent_: windows 7 would not boot
[04:39] <Trent_> hittingpilot1: Your problems with the previous windows 7 install are now gone, because it doesn't exist, correct?
[04:39] <aaron> here is my problem:  http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=7972307#post7972307
[04:39] <hittingpilot1> Trent_: the only thing on my system right now is Ubuntu 9.04
[04:39] <SeaPhor|game> !evolution
[04:40] <rohn> that's okay, I don't either
[04:40] <viyyer> hi I am trying to compile a source package

[04:41] <himuraken> SuperMiguel, Im not sure about that question, I would give clonezilla a try though.
[04:41] <Muelli> administrator_: well. You have to specify whether yuo want to edit HTML or PHP code, or run a webserver, or use a webframework, ...
[04:42] <Trent_> hittingpilot1: okay.  That's fine.  Then go ahead and install it, print out my config that I gave you, and use that.  hd0 is the first drive, and the number gets incremented for every drive after that.  The ',1' is the second partition'
[04:42] <jumbalumba> testing testing
[04:42] <Muelli> !enter | viyyer
[04:42] <pete_> ok, so the only thing that does not work for me is my laptop volume buttons does anyone have any ideas?

[04:42] <Trent_> hittingpilot1: and again, each subsequent partition increments the number.
[04:42] <administrator_> i wanna create a new web site
[04:42] <Trent_> So, craft that to whatever it should be for your system, and it should work for you.
[04:42] <Trent_> hittingpilot1: oops, see previous line. ^^^^^
[04:43] <Koganei> hey, any way I can install XP from Ubuntu using only a USB disk?
[04:43] <Muelli> administrator_: echo Hello World > /tmp/mynewwebsite.html && epiphany /tmp/mynewwebsite.html .. e voila!
[04:43] <hittingpilot1> Trent_:I know about partition tables, and I found this thread too http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1035999&page=2
[04:43] <Muelli> Koganei: you can't install Windows from an Ubuntu, of course.
[04:43] <pete_> any ideas on how to get my laptop buttons to work
[04:44] <administrator_> should i browse using this link
[04:44] <Muelli> pete_: try xev and see whether they show up at all
[04:44] <Koganei> Muelli: no way to put the iso image to a USB and boot the XP install from there?
[04:44] <aaron> Does anyone know anything about Postfix??
[04:44] <hittingpilot1> Trent_http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1035999 <page 1
[04:44] <viyyer> Muelli, thanks a lot.
[04:44] <Trent_> hittingpilot1: checking it out.
[04:44] <losher> aaron: that's a bit advanced for this channel. try #postfix
[04:44] <tmkt> just bought my first blue ray disk today (Disneynature - Earth)
[04:44] <tmkt> what is the trick to getting it going?
[04:45] <Muelli> Koganei: *shrug* please ask somewhere else. I think windows is not capable of doing this. There are a lot of issues with USB Drivers not being loaded quickly enough etc.
[04:45] <jumbalumba> Koganei, please get away from Mr. Bill'$ clutches.
[04:45] <pete_> Muelli, they do, what now?
[04:45] <Koganei> jumbalumba: wish I could, but my school requires XP to connect to the wireless, so I have no choice
[04:45] <aleeusa> greetings
[04:45] <tmkt> am i out of luck?
[04:46] <losher> Koganei: maybe virtualbox or vmware is a solution for you?
[04:46] <Muelli> pete_: good. try  gnome-keybinding-properties and set the volume-up and down buttons
[04:46] <administrator_> is there any software to develop web sits like dream viewer on windows
[04:46] <Koganei> Muelli: I thought it'd be irrelevant of the iso image being Windows or not, you can find lots of tutorials to do it through Windows
[04:46] <pete_> Muelli, excellent.
[04:46] <pete_> Muelli, but im on xfce
[04:46] <Muelli> Koganei: it's not.
[04:46] <Muelli> pete_: *shrug* then this might not work..
[04:46] <pete_> k. let me try
[04:47] <Koganei> losher: lots of trouble for a netbook =/
[04:47] <Muelli> administrator_: maybe emacs. Or vi.. People believe in either of them.
[04:47] <pete_> Muelli, that command does not work at all.
[04:48] <Trent_> hittingpilot1: I'm not sure what you are asking then.  You want to install Windows 7, after an ubuntu install, but you haven't attempted it that way yet, right?  So do you want directions on how to do it, before you attempt it?  Is that what you are after?
[04:48] <Muelli> pete_: I'm sorry. I have no idea how to catch the keys in xfce. What window manager are they using actually? Isn't it metacity by chance?
[04:48] <pete_> Muelli, i need xbindkeys
[04:48] <pete_> installing it now
[04:48] <xangua> hittingpilot1: is always better install windows first and then anything else
[04:49] <pete_> Muelli, window manager, its xorg
[04:49] <hittingpilot1> Trent_: Just gathering information essentially yes, I am actually going try the install tomorrow
[04:49] <pete_> xangua, yea obviously windows doesn't play nice
[04:49] <Muelli> oh, good to know pete_. And then you'll bing X86VolumeUp to pamixer --inc or something?
[04:49] <pete_> um not sure yet?
[04:49] <hittingpilot1> xangua: tried that, failed miserbly
[04:49] <hittingpilot1> xangua: twice
[04:49] <xangua> is much better don't use windows :-D
[04:49] <Muelli> pete_: Nope, XOrg is the XServer. On top of that runs a window manager :-) F.e. GNOME ships Metacity
[04:50] <pete_> Muelli, unsure then
[04:50] <Mata> Anyone know how to recover from "sd 0:0:0:0: [sda] Sense Key : Medium Error [current] [descriptor]" ?
[04:50] <hittingpilot1> xangua: Microsoft giving me license to beta test
[04:50] <Trent_> hittingpilot1: I agree with what xangua is saying.  normally best to do Windows first, if possible, then Linux after.  Okay, given that you have already installed ubuntu, I recommend printing out the config I gave you just in case, and attempting the Windows install.
[04:51] <Muelli> Mata: "Have you tried turning it off and on again?" SCNR
[04:51] <aaron> Anyone know how to config postfix to talk with mysql and send and get e-mail?
[04:51] <Trent_> hittingpilot1: Then, start ubuntu, and edit your grub.conf, and add the config I mentioned
[04:51] <Muelli> aaron: yes.
[04:51] <hittingpilot1> Trent_: copied the config to a .txt file in my flashdrive
[04:51] <Trent_> hittingpilot1: But, I would recommend unplugging the ubuntu drive, just so windows won't overwrite it's MBR.
[04:51] <webbb82> can someone please help me out ,. i was trying to disable pango in firefox and now firefox wont start  take a look at this page to see what i did http://clipmarks.com/clipmark/977A1DE5-A921-49D9-96B1-1A726D7EE71F/
[04:51] <midnightleutenan> Are there any free usenets out there?
[04:52] <Trent_> hittingpilot1: That way you're sure ubuntu will at least boot, so you can fiddle with grub.
[04:52] <Mata> Muelli correct, I've tried from a USB Enclosure + Directly to a Sata cable same issue
[04:52] <Muelli> webbb82: I don't think you can disable Pango. How else would you render fonts then?
[04:52] <hittingpilot1> Trent_:usually I just use my live USB
[04:52] <jumbalumba> Window$ likes to overwrite MBR's, heh heh
[04:52] <Trent_> hittingpilot1: That really should "just work" then, if you get the "(hdX,Y)" setting correct.
[04:52] <webbb82> can you check out the link and see if anything i did would make it not start
[04:52] <Muelli> Mata: Dunno the error but maybe your disk is broken :-|
[04:52] <losher> midnightleutenan: for text only, I believe so. Google them...
[04:52] <Muelli> midnightleutenan: there's a list in DMOZ IIRC.
[04:52] <Trent_> hittingpilot1: live USB for booting?
[04:53] <Anak^Kampung>  /server kernel.dal.net
[04:53] <midnightleutenan> Muelli, Thanks
[04:53] <Trent_> hittingpilot1: and for boot configs?
[04:53] <Mata> Muelli that's what I'm figuring as when mounting after bootup on a USB enclosures I'm getting read/write errors when trying to copy or remove content from the drive
[04:53] <hittingpilot1> Trent_:live usb for boot config changes
[04:53] <Trent_> hittingpilot1: Oh, just for backup, just in case then?
[04:54] <Muelli> Mata: :( Could it be too less power?
[04:54] <hittingpilot1> Trent_:yeah I am paranoid lol
[04:54] <Trent_> hittingpilot1: That works.  But yeah, it should go smoothly, if you get that hdX,Y setup correctly.
[04:54] <Mata> nah it wouldn't be the power
[04:54] <Mata> thanks again Muelli
[04:54] <ZoeyMarie> can anyone help me figure out why a sound recording program us freezing on me?
[04:54] <midnightleutenan> Muelli, How do I get to that?
[04:54] <Marcham89> Hello. I am trying to figure out if I need a swap partition and how big it should be?
[04:54] <hittingpilot1> Trent_:thanks man, like I said I'm going to actually install tomorrow, I am too wiped out today
[04:55] <Trent_> Mata I check the cable.
[04:55] <Muelli> midnightleutenan: I'd google "dmoz usenet" or "dmoz nntp"...
[04:55] <GodfatherofEire> Are there any speech recognition programs available for ubuntu?
[04:55] <losher> Muelli: next step is to download the manufacturer's diagnostic disk & boot & run it...
[04:55] <midnightleutenan> Muelli, Thanks.  I'll check out alltheweb
[04:55] <Muelli> Marcham89: well.. Back in time people tend to have 2 times RAM.
[04:55] <aaron> whats the server room?
[04:55] <aaron> the server channel?
[04:55] <Marcham89> Muelli: That seems extremly large. Do I even need a swap partition?
[04:55] <aaron> ubuntu_server?
[04:55] <jumbalumba> Zoey, you have 2 programs running simultaneously that are conflicting with each other, probly
[04:55] <losher> Marcham89: how much RAM do you have?
[04:56] <Trent_> hittingpilot1: have fun with that.  I hope you get it going. :D
[04:56] <Muelli> Marcham89: maybe not :-) Depends on what you want.
[04:56] <Marcham89> losher: 6GB
[04:56] <krishna_> Hi.
[04:56] <losher> Marcham89: and do you need to suspend/resume?
[04:56] <ZoeyMarie> Jumbalumba, that could be it... how would I tell what it is?
[04:56] <Muelli> Marcham89: Swap is essentially RAM on a harddrive. You want to have that for hibernating.
[04:56] <hittingpilot1> Trent_: yeah I hope to get 4 os's on this old machine
[04:56] <Marcham89> losher: well yes I will.
[04:56] <Trent_> hittingpilot1: Oh, what other things you installing?
[04:56] <jumbalumba> All I know is isolate programs and only run one at a time
[04:57] <Muelli> Marcham89: or for running memory hungry applications. like anything Javaish, Firefox, OOo, ...
[04:57] <hittingpilot1> Trent_: XP and openSUSE
[04:57] <ZoeyMarie> hrm...
[04:57] <krishna_> is there any alternate to http://www.rejetto.com/hfs/  http file server ??? I dont want to follow any large steps.. i just want a simple tool like this... help!
[04:57] <hossam> hello I have set up a directory for samba share with these parameters   browseable = yes  read only = no  guest ok = yes chmod 775 but i cannot write to the directory from a windows machine whats wrong?
[04:57] <losher> Marcham89: to suspend/resume, my understanding is you need at least as much swap as you have RAM, on its own swap partition...
[04:57] <Marcham89> losher: okay so I guess I need 12GB swap then... hmm okay not bad. My hdd can take it.
[04:57] <midnightleutenan> Muelli, Mind if I pm you?
[04:57] <Marcham89> so thank you losher and Muelli
[04:57] <ZoeyMarie> 12g swap?!
[04:57] <Muelli> krishna_: haven't clicked that link, but maybe SSHFS or WebDAV does the trick for your?
[04:57] <ZoeyMarie> I have, like, 2, and it never ever gets used.
[04:57] <Marcham89> ZoeyMarie they said 2x ram
[04:58] <pete_> Muelli, got it working from a guide on xfce
[04:58] <Trent_> hittingpilot1: Yeah, just take it one step at a time.  Win XP should be the same grub config as Windows 7.  That config basically tells grub that the partition in question has it's own boot loader, go use that one, and skip grub.
[04:58] <Muelli> midnightleutenan: well, no problem for me, but the information might be good for other people as well :-)
[04:58] <pete_> Muelli, needed xbindkeys and some text
[04:58] <Marcham89> ok thanks guys
[04:58] <krishna_> Muelli, plz see that link once.. is sshfs in synaptic ?
[04:58] <ZoeyMarie> shrugs. whatever floats your boat.
[04:58] <Marcham89> bye :D
[04:58] <pete_> Muelli, what was that fiurst program you told me.,
[04:58] <Muelli> pete_: If it's not too much, feel free to paste it here :)
[04:58] <losher> Marcham89: I think you should start with 6GB of RAM and monitor swap usage. You may never need more...
[04:58] <pete_> muelli hold ill msg you.
[04:58] <Trent_> hittingpilot1: And, if I'm not mistaken, Windows usually installed boot loaders on the MBR and the partition you install on.
[04:58] <Muelli> pete_: It's a GNOMEy tool to configure keybindings for the desktop :) Really handy
[04:59] <linuxnewbie1000> could someone help me with a graphics problem?
[04:59] <Muelli> krishna_: to find out, do a apt-cache search
[04:59] <hittingpilot1> Trent_: yeah I noticed that, it's quite annoying
[04:59] <Trent_> hittingpilot1: Gotta run, good luck.

[05:02] <Muelli> linuxnewbie1000: which graphics adapter? lspci -vnvn and then somewhere near VGA
[05:02] <krishna_> Muelli, i am sorry. i cannot understand
[05:03] <elanteigne> how does one install rsyncd
[05:03] <elanteigne> ?
[05:03] <linuxnewbie1000> I came to ubuntu because it had more documentation
[05:03] <elanteigne> is it the same as rsync?
[05:03] <Muelli> elanteigne: apt-get install rsyncd?
[05:03] <aleeusa> Appearance Preferences>Visual Effects>
[05:03] <YogiWins> and a better community.
[05:03] <Zermelo-Fraenkel> Good lord, I can't get nvidia drivers to work on MSI VR 630
[05:03] <linuxnewbie1000> and ubuntu looks better than suse
[05:03] <losher> elanteigne: rsync act as both client & server I think...
[05:03] <YogiWins> linuxnewbie1000: what is your graphics chip?
[05:04] <linuxnewbie1000> don't laugh plz
[05:04] <Zermelo-Fraenkel> nvidia
[05:04] <linuxnewbie1000> intel 845g
[05:04] <linuxnewbie1000> "onboard laptop"
[05:04] <Muelli> linuxnewbie1000: it's broken on jaunty
[05:04] <linuxnewbie1000> oh
[05:04] <elanteigne> Muelli: i don't see rsyncd, just rsync
[05:04] <Zermelo-Fraenkel> What is anybody talking to me?
[05:04] <krishna_> Muelli, is there any as simple as that HFS rosette ?
[05:04] <linuxnewbie1000> is jaunty 9.04?
[05:04] <elanteigne> losher, so installing rsync also installs the daemon?
[05:04] <Muelli> linuxnewbie1000: try to search the web for easy workarounds
[05:04] <lonna> trying to use a piece of dj equipment (ion icue).  connected via usb, has no linux support.  have program it is suppose to control running perfect in wine.  how can I get a driver for this/use a windows driver? ideas?
[05:04] <linuxnewbie1000> would 8.04 work?
[05:05] <Muelli> elanteigne: I don't know. You might want to ask http://packages.ubuntu.com for a package containing rsyncd
[05:05] <losher> elanteigne: I believe so. Are you using it for file copying?
[05:05] <YogiWins> linuxnewbie1000: are you able to get into gnome at all? are you just unable to turn on effects?
[05:05] <Muelli> linuxnewbie1000: yes. And 8.10 FWIW. And 9.10 :-)
[05:05] <linuxnewbie1000> yes gnome works fine
[05:05] <linuxnewbie1000> (on gnome now)
[05:05] <linuxnewbie1000> yes no effects
[05:05] <linuxnewbie1000> it searches for drivers and then says it cannot enable effects
[05:05] <kapil> elanteigne: read the man page for "rsyncd.conf"
[05:06] <linuxnewbie1000> so back to 8.10 should work?
[05:06] <elanteigne> Muelli,losher:  i'm configuring BackupPC
[05:06] <YogiWins> linuxnewbie1000:maybe try a rollback, it works sometimes.
[05:06] <Zermelo-Fraenkel> Hey can someone help me on this, I really need to get my ubuntu working on this crap machine
[05:06] <elanteigne> i successfully configured it for SMB for my windows boxes, now i'm learning linux clients.  it says rsyncd is the preferred method.
[05:06] <linuxnewbie1000> rollback? as in drivers?

[05:06] <YogiWins> linuxnewbie1000: no back to 8.10
[05:06] <xmnt> linuxnewbie1000, this may have already been asked but have you installed the correct drivers?
[05:07] <Zermelo-Fraenkel> Gotcha
[05:07] <linuxnewbie1000> it says they are already installed
[05:07] <linuxnewbie1000> :D
[05:07] <losher> elanteigne: kapil: note the man page for rsyncd.conf says it is for 'rsync when run as an rsync daemon' i.e. it is as I said, both client & server
[05:07] <Muelli> linuxnewbie1000, xmnt: Intel Graphics is broken on 8.10.
[05:07] <pete_> can anyone tell me a really easy way to get the information for my volume keys??
[05:07] <linuxnewbie1000> so whats the latest version with working intel graphics?
[05:07] <elanteigne> hmm
[05:07] <Muelli> no acceleration.
[05:07] <Zermelo-Fraenkel> Hey I need help with MSI VR630 anyone

[05:07] <zebrafusion> what's the command ot logout
[05:07] <Muelli> linuxnewbie1000: as I told you, 8.10 or 9.10
[05:08] <Muelli> zebrafusion: logout
[05:08] <zebrafusion> Muelli: no
[05:08] <linuxnewbie1000> oh I thought you just said they are broken on 8.10
[05:08] <zebrafusion> that tries to logout the shell
[05:08] <Muelli> zebrafusion: sure it is :P
[05:08] <zebrafusion> I need to logout ubuntu
[05:08] <Muelli> zebrafusion: you want to end your GNOME Session?
[05:08] <mido_> guyz  .. i'v just downloaded slackware's ISOs ,, i dunno how to burn them in one dvd????
[05:08] <zebrafusion> Muelli: right
[05:09] <Muelli> zebrafusion: gnome-session-save -kill IIRC
[05:09] <Bookman> Can anyone else tell me how to get my Broadcome 4318 chipset working without XP disks?
[05:09] <elanteigne> i think my brain is done for the night.  rsync education tomorrow!
[05:09] <zebrafusion> Muelli: thx mate
[05:09] <elanteigne> adios
[05:09] <Muelli> zebrafusion: --logout
[05:09] <linuxnewbie1000> Muelli: so I should downgrade to 8.10? I don't understand :D
[05:09] <Muelli> linuxnewbie1000: either that or upgrade to latest alpha
[05:10] <linuxnewbie1000> ok
[05:10] <Zermelo-Fraenkel> Muelli: Can you help me with this driver problem on my MSI VR630 laptop
[05:10] <mido_> guyz  .. i'v just downloaded slackware's ISOs ,, i dunno how to burn them in one dvd????
[05:10] <linuxnewbie1000> would alpha be at ubuntu.com
[05:10] <Muelli> linuxnewbie1000: or you just search the web for "ubuntu intel graphics" and do a workaround
[05:10] <linuxnewbie1000> ?
[05:10] <losher> mido_: you can't burn multiple isos to a single dvd. Not even slackware ones...
[05:10] <linuxnewbie1000> ok
[05:10] <linuxnewbie1000> thanks
[05:10] <FloodBot2> linuxnewbie1000: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[05:10] <Muelli> Zermelo-Fraenkel: not unless you tell me your problem!
[05:10] <linuxnewbie1000> ?
[05:10] <linuxnewbie1000> what does flood bot mean?
[05:10] <Muelli> !enter | linuxnewbie1000
[05:10] <Zermelo-Fraenkel> Muelli: Here is the problem,
[05:10] <Muelli> !enter | Zermelo-Fraenkel
[05:10] <linuxnewbie1000> oh
[05:11] <mido_> losher: so ,,, how to install slackware on my device?
[05:11] <losher> linuxnewbie1000: you'll be better off with 8.04
[05:11] <linuxnewbie1000> ok
[05:11] <linuxnewbie1000> are there any big features which are in 9 but absent from 8?
[05:11] <xangua> or wait untin ubuntu KK (29 october) linuxnewbie1000
[05:11] <Muelli> linuxnewbie1000: yeah, gazillions :-)
[05:11] <Zermelo-Fraenkel> Muelli: I have an MSI VR630 laptop I installed ubuntu Jaunty Jackelope
[05:11] <xangua> until*
[05:11] <Zermelo-Fraenkel> It doesn't boot with nvidia
[05:12] <Zermelo-Fraenkel> when spash screen appears it stucks there
[05:12] <ZoeyMarie> Yeah. So Audacity still won't work... no other programs open and it still freezes
[05:12] <Muelli> Zermelo-Fraenkel: what does 'doesn't boot' mean?
[05:12] <ZoeyMarie> Thougthts?
[05:12] <Muelli> Zermelo-Fraenkel: and remeber not to press the enter key so often.
[05:12] <losher> mido_: sigh. if you don't know how to burn isos, I don't think you are ready for slackware...
[05:12] <Zermelo-Fraenkel> the drivers do not load
[05:12] <Muelli> ZoeyMarie: pkill -SEGV it and file a bug!
[05:12] <linuxnewbie1000> lol @ losher
[05:12] <Muelli> ZoeyMarie: or attach strace to it and see where it's stuck.
[05:12] <Zermelo-Fraenkel> Muelli: I didn't press enter or anything
[05:12] <SeaPhor|game> Zermelo-Fraenkel, are you on the live cd?
[05:12] <linuxnewbie1000> he means when
[05:12] <linuxnewbie1000> you talk like
[05:12] <ZoeyMarie> haha... I have no idea what either of those things mean... o.O
[05:13] <linuxnewbie1000> this zermelo
[05:13] <Muelli> Zermelo-Fraenkel: can you boot in rescue mode with a VESA driver?
[05:13] <Zermelo-Fraenkel> SeaPhor: No
[05:13] <mido_> losher: i now how to burn iso.. but I'm wondering how to gather slackware's ISOs ,,go here ftp://mirror.pacific.net.au/linux/slackware/slackware-13.0-iso/
[05:13] <linuxnewbie1000> thanks for the help
[05:13] <Zermelo-Fraenkel> Muelli: No
[05:13] <losher> mido_: perhaps you should be asking on a slackware support channel...?
[05:13] <Zermelo-Fraenkel> Muelli: I tried opensolaris, all kinds of linux, solaris nothing works
[05:13] <Zermelo-Fraenkel> Muelli: However, ubuntu installed
[05:14] <Muelli> ZoeyMarie:  *g* no problem. Just open up a terminal, like Alt+F2 and "gnome-terminal", then pkill -SEGV audacity and just report that bug :)
[05:14] <bazhang> mido_, slackware?
[05:14] <linuxnewbie1000> so what happened when you started ubuntu zermelo?
[05:14] <mido_> bazhang: yes
[05:14] <losher> bazhang: yeah, he's asking about slackware...
[05:14] <graphic> hey how do I set nowrap everytime vim starts?
[05:14] <bazhang> mido_, this is ubuntu support, try #slackware
[05:14] <Zermelo-Fraenkel> linuxnuewnbie: The problem is with the loading drivers
[05:14] <Muelli> Zermelo-Fraenkel: do a sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg and select VESA driver.
[05:15] <bazhang> linuxnewbie1000, intel regression is on Jaunty not INtrepid
[05:15] <linuxnewbie1000> Zermelo-Fraenkel yeah try that
[05:15] <bazhang> !intel | linuxnewbie1000
[05:15] <mido_> thnx for helping guyz
[05:15] <linuxnewbie1000> ok thanks bazhang
[05:15] <protowox> what the fuck is going on there?
[05:15] <bazhang> protowox, watch the language
[05:15] <mneptok> !language | protowox
[05:16] <Zermelo-Fraenkel> Muelli: I have an AMD sempron
[05:16] <protowox> pussies around here
[05:16] <ZoeyMarie> Muelli: Is there a special audacity place to file it?
[05:16] <mdgrech> what up guys any Michigan folk in here?
[05:16] <glicks> excuse me does anyone know why my xCHM cant display negative numbers?  instead it just shows a box with 0090 in it
[05:16] <linuxnewbie1000> is there a kick option?
[05:16] <Muelli> ZoeyMarie: nope, there should Apport pop up, collect informatino and stuff :-)
[05:16] <MrSenator> *hiss* Ohioan here. :P
[05:16] <protowox> pussies
[05:16] <linuxnewbie1000> lol
[05:16] <bazhang> protowox, stop. last warning
[05:16] <mdgrech> mmm I use xchm, didn't know abou that
[05:17] <Muelli> Zermelo-Fraenkel: nobody cares. Your card might just be broken...
[05:17] <ZoeyMarie> ... ? gosh... I must really be a newb... Apport?
[05:17] <Zermelo-Fraenkel> Muelli: No
[05:17] <linuxnewbie1000> thanks mneptok
[05:17] <Zermelo-Fraenkel> Muelli: Stupid windows works just fine
[05:17] <glicks> its really annoying especialy if your reading a math heavy book
[05:17] <nix-idioteque> protowox, free speech is not allowed!
[05:17] <nix-idioteque> oh
[05:17] <Muelli> ZoeyMarie: I'm sorry ;-) Didn't anything pop up after you did that pkill thing? :)
[05:17] <nix-idioteque> haha
[05:17] <bazhang> mdgrech, check the michigan loco
[05:17] <bazhang> !loco | mdgrech
[05:17] <linuxnewbie1000> no we linux users just encourage "colourful" users to get a bigger vocabulary
[05:18] <mdgrech> cool cool.
[05:18] <Zermelo-Fraenkel> glicks: Is it because I have chosen zermelo-fraenkel
[05:18] <Muelli> Zermelo-Fraenkel: yeah it might, but that's not our primary mission :-) Just don't use the proprietary nvidia  driver :P
[05:18] <losher> ZoeyMarie: don't feel bad. I don't know what apport is either...
[05:18] <cellofellow> what's it mean when one of my CPU cores is stuck at 100% usage and no particular process or kernel thread is using more than 1% CPU?
[05:18] <glicks> im sorry Zermelo-Fraenkel ?
[05:18] <Zermelo-Fraenkel> glicks: never mind
[05:18] <Muelli> cellofellow: how do you know?
[05:18] <losher> glicks: google it
[05:18] <cellofellow> I mean, it's just stuck at 100%. Not even flickering up and down.
[05:18] <Zermelo-Fraenkel> Muelli: what is not the primary mission
[05:18] <cellofellow> Muelli: htop
[05:19] <glicks> losher, i dont get it
[05:19] <willca> cellofellow | maybe try to see if there is any actual process eating it.... sudo ps -eo ppid,pid,pcpu,pmem,stime,comm > list
[05:19] <Muelli> cellofellow: hm. maybe CPU frequency changing doesn't work, but it's rather unlikely. Maybe you miss a process in htop/
[05:19] <willca> cellofellow | then just look at that list
[05:19] <losher> glicks: never mind. It's math. It's hard...
[05:19] <Muelli> Zermelo-Fraenkel: to make it just work. The mission is to create a free Operating System. Free as in Speech, not in Beer.
[05:20] <Loafers> When backports is enabled, is the system supposed to automatically install new packages?  Or do I do that on my own?
[05:20] <glicks> anyone know why my xchm might not be able to display my math book correctly
[05:20] <glicks> mainly the negative signs
[05:20] <comadreja> hello
[05:20] <Zermelo-Fraenkel> Muelli: I don't have any probelem with free or paidm I just need get the damn thing to work
[05:20] <RegressLess> can someone help me get a gamepad working on Ubuntu 9.04?
[05:20] <Muelli> Loafers: should install on their own, unless you have fiddled around with /etc/apt/preferences. To check, you can do a apt-cache policy on a backports package :)
[05:20] <cellofellow> willca: Muelli: not missing any processes. Nothing is hogging CPU, that core is just pegged at 100%.
[05:21] <Loafers> glicks, there's a chm reader addon for firefox.
[05:21] <cellofellow> My cpufrequence scalling is on "ondemand" and it's running at full speed (1.8Ghz).
[05:21] <Muelli> cellofellow: weird. check your dmesg. Maybe something in the Kernel is messed up.
[05:21] <willca> cellofellow | what does sudo cat /proc/cpuinfo say about the speed
[05:21] <losher> glicks: none of those proprietary format readers work 100% in my experience...
[05:21] <Muelli> Zermelo-Fraenkel: Yeah, you apparently don't get it. It's not about paying. It's about freedom.
[05:21] <glicks> hmm ill check it out Loafers thanks
[05:22] <cellofellow> that won't say anything about the usage, will it, willca?
[05:22] <ZoeyMarie> Muelli: I tried to do strace thingie, and it crashed my computer. haha... I might not have done it right, though...  how do I do this apport thing... I've never done it before. :/
[05:22] <bazhang> glicks, there is gnochm and chmsee in the repos
[05:22] <cellofellow> had a hard shutdown earlier. all that looks amiss in dmesg is some ecryptfs errors but I get those often enough.
[05:23] <losher> glicks: also kchmviewer
[05:23] <MrSenator> How well is Wine working nowadays? I want to use Ubuntu 100%, but I am also a major windows gamer (Lots of games on Steam) that would make me sad if I gave them up.
[05:23] <RegressLess> OK, easier question: Can someone tell me how to install from source files?
[05:23] <Muelli> ZoeyMarie: oh, I'm sorry for your computer being crashed :-\  Actually, you don't do the apport thing yourself :) Ubuntu Magic makes it possible to retrieve information after a crash automatically. So you shuold just have to make your program crash, i.e. by doing a pkill -SEGV on the process.
[05:23] <bazhang> MrSenator, depends, you should check the appdb for your preferred apps
[05:24] <losher> Zermelo-Fraenkel: maybe you're approaching it from the wrong end. Google your hardware and see what people say runs well on it...
[05:24] <glicks> that can display negative signs properly
[05:24] <Muelli> RegressLess: apt-get source $package
[05:24] <glicks> but its more difficult to jump around
[05:24] <ZoeyMarie> AH! that works.... so I run audacity until it freezes (it doesn't really crash, just freezes up) and then, in terminal, run pkil -SEGV and it'll do it for me?
[05:24] <Muelli> ZoeyMarie: yes :)
[05:25] <ZoeyMarie> cool. thanks.
[05:25] <Muelli> ZoeyMarie: at least it should :D
[05:25] <RegressLess> Muelli: No, I have the files. I just don't know what to do next
[05:25] <ZoeyMarie> haha
[05:25] <Muelli> RegressLess: dpkg-buildpackage I guess.
[05:25] <Loafers> Muelli: I have backports checked in Software Sources and it just reloads the list and does nothing.  I ran apt-cache policy and I got http://paste.ubuntu.com/273921/  What do I do?
[05:26] <MindSpark> hi, would anyone know where eclipse would save it's configuration ?
[05:26] <SeaPhor|game> bazhang, my audio has worked fine on 8.04 since forever, i did an update today and now  NO audio, any ideas?
[05:26] <RegressLess> Muelli: OK, say you have a folder named "qjoypad-4.0.0" on your desktop with all the files in it. What do you do?
[05:26] <Loafers> MindSpark: I'm guessing it'll be a hidden folder in your Home Folder
[05:27] <bazhang> SeaPhor|game, what version of ubuntu; you are using wine also? could you give some more info
[05:27] <Muelli> Loafers: everything is fine :) You see that every repository has a priority of 500, thus backport packages get respected just as your normal repos :)
[05:27] <MindSpark> Loafers, that's where it should normally be, yes. But I can't find anything there
[05:27] <Muelli> RegressLess: What *I* do? :D I do a ./configure --prefix=/opt/%USER/ && make && make install ;-)
[05:27] <Loafers> Muelli: But why isn't it updating anything?  My firefox is still the same version
[05:27] <SeaPhor|game> bazhang, 8.04,,,,,,
[05:27] <glicks> ok xchm sucks
[05:27] <Muelli> Loafers: what did you expect? To check where a package comes from, do a apt-cache policy $package
[05:28] <ceue_chubbie_> Coy
[05:28] <newser> are there any known configuration issues with GeForce GTX 275 video cards?
[05:28] <pete_> can someone please help me with xbindkeys ?
[05:29] <glicks> hey has anyone tried Empathy?
[05:29] <RegressLess> I'm f*cking lost
[05:29] <Loafers> Muelli: I'm confused, I was under the assumption that if I had backports enabled it woudl automatically install new verions of apps like the way it does for security fixes
[05:29] <Loafers> glicks: yeah
[05:29] <glicks> since they are replacing gimp with it next ubuntu release
[05:29] <glicks> Loafers, how is it, better than gimp?
[05:29] <glicks> i mean pidgin
[05:29] <Loafers> glicks: they're almost the same thing
[05:29] <bazhang> RegressLess, please watch the language
[05:29] <glicks> almost?
[05:29] <Muelli> Loafers: nope. That means a little. Depends on who backports what. You might try prevu to backport yourself
[05:29] <glicks> whats the diff?
[05:30] <RegressLess> I thought I did
[05:30] <glicks> new stuff scares me
[05:30] <glicks> ive been using the gimp since as long as i can remimber
[05:30] <glicks> i mean pidgin
[05:30] <glicks> i keep saying gimp when i mean pidgin
[05:30] <Loafers> glicks: i used pidgin 4ever also, and I didnt like empathy that much b/c it was lacking plugins
[05:30] <Zermelo-Fraenkel> Hey anybody has experienced this problem http://start.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1009417
[05:31] <RegressLess> Anyway, I don't know what I'm doing and I could really appreciate some help in laymenspeak regarding setting up qjoypad on my netbook
[05:31] <Loafers> glicks: but ubuntu dev team wouldn't make it official chat client for ubuntu unless it was stable, funcitonal, and >= pidgin
[05:31] <glicks> does it have aplugin architecture
[05:31] <glicks> ?
[05:31] <glicks> can you write plugins for it
[05:31] <glicks> yeah i heard it supports video and voice chat nicely
[05:31] <Loafers> Muelli: so what does clicking on the backptos checkbox do?  Nothing?
[05:32] <Muelli> Loafers: google for backports to understand the concept of a backport
[05:32] <Loafers> Muelli: ok
[05:32] <Muelli> or better, the idea
[05:32] <bazhang> !backports | Muelli Loafers
[05:32] <SeaPhor|game> bazhang, 8.04, i have wine 1.1.7 installed, none of the wine repos, audio has been fine since i installed 8.04 as new when it was issued, ... what more do you need?
[05:33] <dragon> hi, how do I prevent the nautilus window from showing up each time I insert a USB drive?
[05:33] <bazhang> SeaPhor|game, it was after the latest install that it stopped? was this concurrent with some other event?

[05:34] <Zermelo-Fraenkel> for the same problem, can anyone help
[05:34] <zaccour> how do i update gnome desktop to the latest version?
[05:34] <MrSenator> Anyone know of an eventvwr.exe equivalent in Ubuntu? Coming from Windows here.
[05:35] <leaf-sheep> MrSenator: eventvwr.exe is what?
[05:35] <zaccour> MrSenator, have you tried using Wine to emulate
[05:35] <mido_> guyz ... i got this "signing key not in keyring" when i opend slackware-13.0-install-d3.iso.asc
[05:35] <mido_> wat should i do ?
[05:35] <SeaPhor|game> bazhang, no,,,, its worked fine for years, worked 2 weeks ago, i went away, and came back, today- there were updates to install- installed, rebooted and no audio
[05:35] <MrSenator> Well, it wouldn't work. Event Viewer is essentially the logging system for windows. it shows you system and application errors in a fairly nice format
[05:35] <bazhang> mido_, this is not the slackware support channel. please desist
[05:35] <MrSenator> Making it a bit easier to track down errors, etc.
[05:35] <MrSenator> Is there an equivalent of that in Ubuntu?
[05:36] <zaccour> mido_, slackware sucks lol
[05:36] <bazhang> mido_, /join #slackware
[05:36] <mido_> bazhang:but  now Im on ubuntu

[05:37] <bazhang> RegressLess, you have a link?
[05:37] <lyh> uncompress first

[05:39] <RDove> My friend at work said that my other friend at work was unprofessional because he used caps in an email.  He said "PLEASE DO NOT RUN THESCRIPT.SH" in blue letters and then explained why the script is broken currently.  Do you think my friend is right? I thought it was an alright email
[05:39] <linuxnewbie1000> I am restarting into new kernel soon, hope intel drivers work now :D
[05:39] <Bookman> Hi there, I need to go away tomorrow and I need to have my laptop be able to play dvds. I just installled 9.04
[05:39] <bazhang> RegressLess, did you check the readme? it seems fairly clear
[05:39] <dsnyders> Hi all.  I figured out my sed problem.   I needed to use .* not just *
[05:40] <linuxnewbie1000> RDove: I don't think he is unproffesional as if running that script would break something, then in caps or bigger font is very proffesioanl
[05:40] <DasEi> Bookman: install vlc
[05:40] <RegressLess> bazhang: I'll say it again: Noob.  I have another question... When I boot up, there are, like, 6 version of the linux kernals to boot from (recovery modes included)... are these necessary for anything, and, if not, how do I delete them? Gparted?
[05:41] <bazhang> RegressLess, the section entitled chapter 2 is what you need to focus on
[05:41] <RDove> thanks
[05:41] <linuxnewbie1000> ZoeyMarie: no they are not all nesecary but do not delete them
[05:41] <bazhang> ZoeyMarie, always a good idea to keep an extra one around
[05:41] <linuxnewbie1000> they are important if the default one fails
[05:41] <RegressLess> I didn't know f r i c k i n was a cuss word
[05:41] <ZoeyMarie> but, an extra 5?
[05:42] <Loafers> ZoeyMarie: edit /boot/grub/menu.lst and comment the ones you don't want out
[05:42] <ZoeyMarie> I don't even know how they got there! haha. I just wanted to dual boot between ubuntu/studio (I don't even know what my flavor is) and windows! haha.
[05:42] <ZoeyMarie> Loafers how do I comment them out?
[05:43] <ZoeyMarie> and how do I know which ones I don't want? What is the difference between the kernals, and how'd I get them?
[05:43] <RegressLess> bazhang: where do I type ./config?
[05:44] <RaviResck> Hi! I have two computers that connects to the internet by my ubuntu machine. In the network of these two windows pc's i can see the ubuntu machine, but on ubuntu i see the machines, but cant access the files. I use a hub to share the connection and the "samba". My smb.conf = http://pastebin.com/d2b6c5b07 Thanks!
[05:44] <Loafers> ZoeyMarie: ##
[05:44] <ZoeyMarie> what about knowing what the diff. is?
[05:44] <lyh> in terminal
[05:44] <bazhang> RegressLess, in the same folder as the stuff you wish to install (via the terminal)
[05:44] <dsnyders> ZoeyMarie, in /boot/grub/menu.lst there is a line which says howmany= which tells grub how many previous entries to keep.
[05:44] <BeWop> Hello, I need to know what video card I have, and find the drivers for it. Any help or commands would be great.
[05:45] <pshr> BeWop, lshw
[05:45] <RegressLess> bazhang: see, that's what I don't understand. I can open a terminal, but how do I open a terminal in a folder?
[05:45] <DasEi> Bookman: do you get by with that short info ?
[05:45] <burntresistor> i have to delete a file with permissions whats the del command in terminal
[05:45] <bazhang> RegressLess, the package is on your desktop?
[05:45] <ZoeyMarie> dsnyders: where is it getting the previous entries from? and is the top one the one I want? (why do I have 3 different kernels though?)
[05:45] <pshr> burntresistor, rm -rf <filename>
[05:45] <RegressLess> bazhang: yes
[05:46] <burntresistor> thanks
[05:46] <pshr> no
[05:46] <pshr> np
[05:46] <DasEi> BeWop: hwinfo tells you (amongst others)
[05:46] <BeWop> Thanks
[05:46] <bazhang> RegressLess, when you type ls in the terminal do you see Desktop ?
[05:46] <dsnyders> ZoeyMarie, It gets them from automatic updates.
[05:46] <newser> is it possible to make a network connection and use my laptop wireless card to use internet on a desktop?
[05:46] <ZoeyMarie> OH! re-heaally? ok. lemme check for that one.
[05:46] <dsnyders> ZoeyMarie, The top one is the one you want.
[05:47] <bazhang> !ics | newser
[05:47] <cellofellow> Is the realtime kernel really this buggy? It's crashed on me three or for times in the last hour.
[05:47] <bazhang> cellofellow, it is
[05:47] <RegressLess> bazhang: yes
[05:47] <bazhang> RegressLess, cd Desktop
[05:48] <cellofellow> isn't the realtime kernel used for systems like stock exchanges that need months or even years of runtime?
[05:48] <adok> guys... im trying to make gftp work with implicit ssl.. so far i recompile gftp with --enable-ssl but i still cant connect to my ftp sites, anything else i should do or should i google for another ftp client?
[05:48] <bazhang> cellofellow, thought it was mostly for audio recording and such
[05:49] <dsnyders> ZoeyMarie, if you change the line to howmany=2 and run update-grub then grub will only list the latest two kernels.
[05:49] <cellofellow> yeah....
[05:49] <ZoeyMarie> run "update-grup" in terminal?
[05:49] <RaviResck> Hi! I have two computers that connects to the internet by my ubuntu machine.

[05:49] <Loafers> !repeat RaviResck
[05:49] <pshr> Once again how can ubuntu machine be optimized for performance ?
[05:49] <Loafers> !repeat | RaviResck
[05:49] <pshr> !performance
[05:49] <ZoeyMarie> argh! it always tells me that I can't alter these documents! how do I get around that without changing the permissions? (or is that what I have to do?)
[05:50] <pshr> !performance
[05:50] <pshr> Once again how can ubuntu machine be optimized for performance ?
[05:50] <ZoeyMarie> and, yeah, grub... oops. haha
[05:50] <RaviResck> Sorry.
[05:50] <RaviResck> Wasnt my intetion.
[05:50] <bazhang> pshr, please /msg ubottu
[05:50] <Loafers> RaviResck: Try asking on forums maybe someone can help you there
[05:50] <DasEi> pshr: by disabling any not needed daemons or services
[05:51] <RaviResck> I already did that.
[05:51] <RaviResck> But thanks!
[05:51]  * cellofellow goes out on a limb and attempts to get Cinelerra to work without the RT kernel.
[05:52] <bazhang> pshr, you could start with the minimal installer (9mb) and build from there
[05:52] <ZoeyMarie> can anyone tell me how to save this document? since I don't have the permissions?
[05:52] <DasEi> pshr: there are many ways to fasten a sys, easy upstart is installing bum, drop unneeded services and also check top,htop for whats eating up cpu and mem ;
[05:52] <DasEi> !bum
[05:52] <pshr> Thanks DasEi
[05:53] <bazhang> pshr, also consider a less resource intensive de such as lxde
[05:53] <pshr> lxde ?
[05:53] <glicks> hey does gnome sound recorder work for anyone?
[05:53] <glicks> im trying to use it using the mic in my webcam as the capture device
[05:54] <bazhang> pshr, its a metapackage; sudo apt-get install lxde
[05:54] <blendmaster1024> which of these pci wifi cards: http://tinyurl.com/mckpo8 would you guys recommend
[05:54] <dsnyders> RaviResck, It looks like you have samba set to authenticate against an active directory domain controller.
[05:54] <ZoeyMarie> glicks: I was having the same problem. What's the webcam?
[05:55] <glicks> ZoeyMarie, its a highend logitek
[05:55] <dsnyders> ZoeyMarie, are you editing the files via sudo?
[05:55] <blendmaster1024> !help
[05:55] <RaviResck> dsnyders could you show me the line?
[05:55] <ZoeyMarie> dsnyders: I don't know. I just did it through nautilus (that's the gui file browser thingie, iright?)
[05:55] <blendmaster1024> sorry i did the ! thing to find the bot
[05:56] <ZoeyMarie> glicks: you have to disable autospawn in the pulseaudio client.conf... I think it's in the /etc folder.
[05:56] <glicks> ZoeyMarie, autospawn? whats that do?
[05:56] <dsnyders> RaviResck, line 109 in the pastebin: domain logons = yes
[05:56] <ZoeyMarie> haha I have no idea.
[05:56] <RaviResck> dsnyders thanks.
[05:56] <glicks> ZoeyMarie, where did you find that out?
[05:56] <ZoeyMarie> on ubuntu forums.
[05:56] <bazhang> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/WirelessCardsSupported blendmaster1024
[05:57] <nic1> my microphone is not working
[05:57] <glicks> and did it work for you then ZoeyMarie ?
[05:57] <ZoeyMarie> dsnyders: I don't know. I just did it through nautilus (that's the gui file browser thingie, iright?)
[05:57] <glicks> ZoeyMarie, do you have a link to the forum topic?
[05:57] <nic1> capture is the problem, hw can i correct it?
[05:57] <blendmaster1024> bazhang, i dont want to know supported i want to know good - i'm asking on all the channels i know about since i need an answer asap
[05:57] <ZoeyMarie> pretty much. I needed to mess around with the pulseaudo device controls. Yeah. I'll find it. I had to do some searching though, because my file was in /etc.
[05:57] <dsnyders> ZoeyMarie, if you are just starting the program off of the menu, then it is done under your login, not as root.  What editor are you using?
[05:57] <bazhang> blendmaster1024, this is not the correct channel to Poll
[05:58] <ZoeyMarie> gedit
[05:58] <cellofellow> is there some way to find bad ecryptfs files? dmesg several times reports bad files but doesn't say which ones they are.
[05:58] <blendmaster1024> bazhang, then what is? [angry face]
[05:59] <ZoeyMarie> glicks: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1267026
[05:59] <ZoeyMarie> dsnyders: gedit
[05:59] <bazhang> ZoeyMarie, gksudo gedit file
[05:59] <dsnyders> ZoeyMarie, go to a terminal, type in sudo gedit.  You will be prompted for your password, then you will temporarily be promoted to root, allowing you to edit grub
[06:00] <losher> blendmaster1024: one thing I find that helps is to search newegg reviews for hardware which users report have worked well with ubuntu. You might try that...
[06:00] <Apollo2366> Hey, using Ubuntu Jaunty with most recent updates. I recently started using Wireshark, and I've noticed that most of my HTTP and TCP packets turn up black and red because of incorrect checksums. Some info: http://pastebin.com/d695026eb

[06:01] <ZoeyMarie> glicks: no prob

[06:01] <RegressLess1> lyh: pm
[06:01] <evilbug> ZoeyMarie: your first time?
[06:02] <ZoeyMarie> losher: I know... I can feel it. haha
[06:02] <Apollo2366> The problem is also documented here, https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/326406 but I don't think there was any solution. Bear with me, I've never used Launchpad.
[06:02] <ZoeyMarie> oh yeah... I'm just figuring this stuff out myself.
[06:03] <gemilang> hello all
[06:03] <evilbug> hey.
[06:03] <Apollo2366> !hello | gemilang
[06:03] <ZoeyMarie> okay. I'm gonna go screw around with Ardour some more now. :) have a good night all!
[06:04] <xmnt> Arrrrrr
[06:04] <losher> Apollo2366: well the good news is it's presumably not your hardware. Eventually I suppose it will get fixed. Or not...
[06:04] <gemilang> anybody know how to format harddisk in ubuntu 9.04?
[06:04] <linuxguy2009> If I need to run a sudo command on the command line at bootup where do I type the command in?
[06:04] <SeaPhor|game> bazhang, no,,,, its worked fine for years, worked 2 weeks ago, i went away, and came back, today- there were updates to install- installed, rebooted and no audio
[06:04] <randal> help plz. I changed a seating in ccsm and my graphics card couldnt handle it so my screen went werid. i cant open ccsm because the graphics are messing up is there away to put these setting to defalt or turn graphics too none
[06:04] <dsnyders> gemilang, check out mkfs
[06:04] <xmnt> gemilang, tis need to use gparted
[06:04] <losher> linuxguy2009: they usually go in /etc/rc.local. May I ask what command you need to run?
[06:04] <Apollo2366> losher: that's what that means then? It's just one of the Great Mysteries of Ubuntu?
[06:05] <gemilang> what command to use mkfs?
[06:05] <echosystm> what changed in the boot process of 9.04? i cant find out anywhere
[06:05] <echosystm> did they change the init ssystem or what?
[06:05] <gemilang> i was using Gparted but dont know why this not success
[06:05] <dsnyders> gemilang, mkfs is the linux format command.
[06:05] <pete_> how do I run a program that is not in /usr/bin at startup ???
[06:06] <pete_> and one that is.. btw
[06:06] <randal> help plz. I changed a seating in ccsm and my graphics card couldnt handle it so my screen went werid. i cant open ccsm because the graphics are messing up is there away to put these setting to defalt or turn graphics too none
[06:06] <linuxguy2009> losher: Just guessing does "rc.local" stand for root command local? If it does gthewn that would make it simple to remember this in the future.
[06:06] <midnightleutenan> Hi again everyone
[06:06] <gemilang> sudo mkfs? in terminal editor
[06:06] <randal> soreau: hey btw everyhting is working now but i messed something up can you help me

[06:06] <BeWop> Hello, I'm having issues installing the ATI Proprietary Linux Driver-8.28.8. I get the following message: http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/m694ec0e6
[06:06] <dsnyders> gemilang, yes, followed by the partition that you wish to format.
[06:06] <uRoRRoRRR> randal: People won't help you just because you repeat yourself.
[06:06] <adante> how can i update whatever it is i need to in order to show up to date blkid info?
[06:07] <midnightleutenan> xmnt, Arrr
[06:07] <Korlis> dont worry, it wont hurt much
[06:07] <Apollo2366> randal: Try metacity --replace& in terminal.
[06:07] <soreau> randal: Just ask the channel and maybe someone can help you
[06:07] <Korlis> how is everyone this fine night
[06:07] <RegressLess1> bazhang: I tried what you said and it didn't work--probably my fault. Now I've lost the conversation because I unplugged my netbook with the battery out (oops)
[06:07] <randal> randal
[06:07] <randal> woops
[06:07] <Korlis> hi randal
[06:07] <xmnt> Korlis, tis plenty nice
[06:08] <BeWop> Hello, I'm having issues installing the ATI Proprietary Linux Driver-8.28.8. I get the following message: http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/m694ec0e6
[06:08] <losher> Apollo2366: I'm not sure what it means. It's been there since february, it's status is 'new' and its importance is 'undecided'. Apparently it doesn't prevent networking (which would be a showstopper), presumably it just degrades performance. I don't see you have any choice except to live with it or change os/version and hope it improves...
[06:08] <Korlis> xmnt = xenophobic mutant ninja teen?
[06:09] <xmnt> Korlis, gentleman pirate
[06:09] <Apollo2366> losher: Well I wouldn't be complaining about it, but I think it might have something to do with the "Connection Reset" errors I'm getting in FF. Mainly facebook's /home.php
[06:09] <RegressLess1> bazhang: this is where I'm at --->   mike@ninjubuntu:~/Desktop$
[06:09] <pete_> whats the best way to run programs on startup !?
[06:10] <willca> BeWop | did you run this while inside an X session?
[06:10] <losher> Apollo2366: I notice it's logged against 8.10. Is that what you're running?
[06:10] <BeWop> Nope
[06:10] <dsnyders> pete_, you need to add an entry to /etc/rc.local
[06:10] <Apollo2366> pete_: Have you tried System>Preferences>Startup Applications?
[06:10] <BeWop> willca | The page says that there's some kind of setup
[06:10] <pete_> thanks both, ill use snyders approach
[06:10] <BeWop> willca | http://www2.ati.com/drivers/linux/linux_8.24.8.html#176980
[06:10] <Apollo2366> losher: nope, Jaunty. The symptoms match perfectly though.
[06:11] <gemilang> @dsnyders, gemilang@gemilang-desktop:~$ sudo mkfs [sudo] password for gemilang: Usage: mkfs [-V] [-t fstype] [fs-options] device [size]gemilang@gemilang-desktop:~$
[06:11] <Korlis> pete_:  under administration there is an option called services, from there you can choose what starts up
[06:11] <Xgates> Ubuntu didn't just make a basic x86_64 iso? All I see is an AMD64 iso, so what about Intel 64?
[06:11] <willca> BeWop | ok this binary...you need to do this while in an X session
[06:11] <gemilang> and what to do?
[06:11] <zenlunatic> Xgates: same difference
[06:11] <Korlis> pete_:  nvm i guess, i type slow
[06:11] <randal> hey does anyone know how i can open ccsm in terminal
[06:11] <willca> BeWop | i had an ati radeon mobilexpress before and thats how i used to do it, within my fluxbox session
[06:11] <BeWop> willca | so go to the recovery thingy, and then type the command in?
[06:12] <Apollo2366> randal: "ccsm" then press enter
[06:12] <willca> BeWop | no just boot normally and go to your desktop or windowmanager whichever you use
[06:12] <BeWop> willca: I'll come back if that doesn't work =P
[06:12] <Xgates> zenlunatic: unless sorce code has changed over the last few years it's not the same, there are AMD flags and Intel flags that can be compiled into source SPECFIC to that Arch...
[06:12] <willca> then run it again in a terminal
[06:12] <BeWop> willca: wait, so
[06:12] <Korlis> xmnt: gentleman pirate?
[06:12] <randal> Apollo2366: if i do that in failsafe terminal will that effect my normall season
[06:12] <BeWop> willca: the X Server is just the display, right?
[06:12] <BeWop> willca: I'm in a gui
[06:12] <Korlis> xmnt: is that like a pirate stripper?
[06:12] <willca> BeWop | yes and no. Good you are in a gui
[06:12] <losher> Apollo2366: scary. Try an 8.04 live cd and downgrade if the problem goes away? Dunno what else to suggest...
[06:13] <willca> BeWop | just run it now as root inside a terminal
[06:13] <BeWop> willca: that was in a root terminal
[06:13] <pitput> how can I make my icons more organized? sometimes they overlap each other...
[06:13] <willca> BeWop | use sudo
[06:13] <pete_> dsnyders, would something like /home/pete/xboxdrv work in rc.local
[06:13] <willca> BeWop | root does not run X for itself thats why that pops up normally, as far as my recollection of it goes
[06:13] <Apollo2366> losher: I'll probably just wait it out, facebook was working fine until today. Maybe it's server-side. If it continues though, I might do that.
[06:13] <BeWop> willca: Alright, hold on
[06:14] <losher> Apollo2366: sounds reasonable. Good luck...
[06:14] <RegressLess1> can anyone help me figure out how to install this app?
[06:14] <Korlis> Apollo2366: my wife uses face book and always has problems
[06:14] <Apollo2366> losher: Think I should repost in #networking? See if they can figure it out? Korlis: Other than the normal glitches?
[06:14] <SilentJonathan> is it possible to put something in .bashrc so that when i type 'stuff' it replaces it with the text 'hello world 23'?
[06:14] <randal> soreau: hey i have a question how can i log into my account with the graphics turned off
[06:15] <dsnyders> pete_, I think so.  You may have to do a bit of googling to get the exact syntax
[06:15] <BeWop> willca: I did that, didn't work. Here's the entirety of what I did
[06:15] <Cyrano_De> SilentJonathan: alias stuff='hello world 23'
[06:15] <echosystm> if i want to install a command-line only sysetm, do i use alternate cd or the normal cd?
[06:15] <losher> Apollo2366: nothing to lose. The worst that can happen is you'll be ignored...
[06:15] <Korlis> Apollo2366: yeah, sometimes her restaurant city wont load, or FF can't contact the server, or it will just remain on a white page when she navigates to it
[06:15] <BeWop> willca: http://bradyn.pastebin.ca/1571544
[06:15] <willca> k
[06:15] <pete_> dsnyders, will do
[06:15] <harpal> I just installed ubuntu latest version.
[06:16] <harpal> I would like to install sun java 5
[06:16] <mezquitale> randal, try a console typing "alt-f1", or do you want to completely turn off graphics mode?
[06:16] <echosystm> this is well documented harpal, go on google and dont be lazy
[06:16] <harpal> I cant find any sun-java5 in apt-get to install
[06:16] <t0s> my sound isnt as high as it should be, i checked in volume control everything is all the way up, but its like my sound only works half way and on up like there isnt really "low" volume settings
[06:16] <Xgates> boy someone needs to get with Ubuntu development and clue them in, to be technically correct you don't call something in linux AMD64 UNLESS it''s ONLY for AMD, otherwise it's suppose to be x86_64
[06:16] <Cyrano_De> echosystm: I could be wrong but I think you will need to install ubuntu server in order to install a command-line only system.
[06:16] <willca> BeWop | that is just weird...do this...what desktop you running? gnome / kubuntu / xubuntu or something else?
[06:16] <Apollo2366> Korlis: I get those sometimes. I think that's just Facebook being written mainly for windows/IE.
[06:16] <Korlis> Apollo2366: i assume its a facebook problem
[06:16] <echosystm> no, you can install cli only from a normal one
[06:16] <Korlis> Apollo2366: yeah
[06:17] <echosystm> it used to be the alt cd, but from memory it may have changed
[06:17] <BeWop> willca: The standard ubuntu desktop, so gnome. I don't have effects turned on or anything, but I don't think that'd make much of a difference
[06:17] <willca> echosystm | if you have the minimal install iso you can enter "cli" upon initial boot and then setup the CLI system that way
[06:17] <randal> mezquitale: i changed a setting in ccsm that Messed up my graphics i need to turn graphics off so i can fix this setting i changed
[06:17] <RegressLess1> I want this program, but I don't know how to install it:  http://qjoypad.sourceforge.net/#download
[06:17] <mezquitale> echosystm, why would you want to install a command line only mode distribution?? most distributions can actually work only on command mode but you must have a reason why you only want command line only
[06:17] <pete_> dsnyders, it appears, something like /home/pete/xboxdrv/xboxdrv -- silent will work?
[06:17] <willca> BeWop | sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart and then try it again
[06:17] <echosystm> what is the minimal install iso willca ?
[06:17] <xmnt> arr, facebook not be written soley for ye IE, i works with some of the developers ... tis be due to ajax and server scalability issues
[06:17] <pete_> --silent that is.
[06:17] <BeWop> willca: alright, brb
[06:18] <willca> echosystm | its just a small ISO without any desktop or something like that....its basically what you want to use if you dont want the prepared regular ISOs for ubuntu with all the bells and whistles
[06:18] <njs> Xgates: "amd64" is the generic name for the 64-bit extensions to x86, since AMD invented them and then Intel started making amd64 clones. people have moved towards x86-64 as the generic since then, but amd64 is still used in some places and perfectly correct.
[06:18] <Korlis> Apollo2366: and the majority of facebook users make it apparent who the service is aimed at imho
[06:18] <SilentJonathan> Cyrano_De, when i type it, it only gets the first part because it thinks its a command
[06:18] <yogi_> QUIT
[06:18] <mucous> I'm trying to figure out these instructions: http://www.steve-oh.com/blog/index.php/2009/03/12/ubuntu-vista-dual-boot-full-encryption-with-truecrypt/ could anyone help me with them?
[06:18] <Korlis> Apollo2366: i had a hard enough time signing up for myspace, youd never get me near facebook
[06:18] <randal> mezquitale: any ideas how i can turn of thegraphics
[06:18] <pete_> dsnyders, can I use sudo before that?
[06:19] <njs> anyway, I just upgraded to karmic, and now oem-config is running at *every boot wtf*. anyone know how to make it stop that?
[06:19] <SilentJonathan> what i am trying to do is specifiy some list of options instead of manually typing them in? or would a bash script be more suitable
[06:19] <dsnyders> pete_, I'm not sure.  All I know is that's where you'd put it.
[06:19] <xmnt> Korlis, Apollo2366 see me above messages ... tis be the result of other issues
[06:19] <pete_> dsnyders, oh rc.local runs as root..
[06:19] <beatbreak> what's the md5sum of Ubuntu 9.04 ?
[06:20] <mezquitale> randal, yes, i havent done it in a long while, you have to switch modes, im just trying to figure out why ccsm would mess up your drivers, if your drivers are working fine I suggest you work on ccsm first, but to answer your question, you need to change modes first
[06:20] <randal> does anyone know how to turn graphics off before you log in to fix a problem
[06:20] <pete_> dsnyders, is there a way to now run rc.local to see if it works?
[06:20] <Cyrano_De> SilentJonathan: sorry dropped the echo alias stuff='echo hello world 23'
[06:20] <beatbreak> i got 3afa8bca40ba8be72ace97e1cdb5256c
[06:20] <randal> mezquitale: ok
[06:20] <dsnyders> pete_, I think you can do ./etc/rc.local
[06:20] <mucous> can anyone please help me figure out these instructions?
[06:21] <pitput> how can I make my icons more organized? sometimes they overlap each other...
[06:21] <RegressLess1> Can someone help the village idiot? I've got the qjoypad package on my desktop and don't know how to install it.
[06:21] <Cyrano_De> SilentJonathan: I like to export ENV variables and refrenece them.
[06:21] <BeWop1> willca: That did not work either, same error
[06:21] <randal> what happand i enable a effect on accadent and my graphics couldnt handle that one and it stoped working i need to change these setting back to defalt or turn graphics off any ideas how i can do this thanks.
[06:21] <dsnyders> pete_, You may need to sudo it if the command needs to be root.
[06:21] <Korlis> xmnt: oh well, i dont really care, i hate facebook, i hope their servers get overloaded and it creates a domino effect like when gmail went down
[06:21] <pete_> dsnyders, rc.local runs as root
[06:21] <pete_> supposedly.
[06:21] <randal> mezquitale: what happand i enable a effect on accadent and my graphics couldnt handle that one and it stoped working i need to change these setting back to defalt or turn graphics off any ideas how i can do this thanks
[06:21] <RegressLess1> It takes a village to help an idiot
[06:22] <dsnyders> pete_, At startup it runs as root.  If you're launching it manually, it runs at whatever user level you are.
[06:22] <Apollo2366> xmnt: are you talking about my HTTP/TCP checksum problems, specifically, or just the normal facebook glitches?
[06:22] <pete_> dsnyders, so use sudo before the cmds.
[06:22] <Korlis> RegressLess1: what format is the qjoypad package in
[06:22] <xmnt> Korlis, they be experiencing issues at the moment .. the sight be slow as a ship in the windless caribbean
[06:22] <BeWop1> willca: any other ideas?
[06:22] <Cyrano_De> SilentJonathan: For working with the vSphere sdk I do "export VMEAST=https://virtualcenterserver/sdk/vimService"  Then every script I run I give it that variable as the option.  Ex. dsBrowse.pl --url $VMEAST
[06:22] <randal> mezquitale: so how do i switch modes
[06:23] <mucous> can anyone please help me figure out these instructions?
[06:23] <willca> BeWop | k forget that binary...try using envyng | so sudo apt-get install envyng i think
[06:23] <Korlis> xmnt: huzzah! let us all board her ports and help her along!
[06:23] <RegressLess1> Korlis: format? it was in a tar.gz and I extracted it
[06:23] <Beastmode> guyscan someone please help me with themes for gnome? or point me to a tutorial. thx i want to know how to install them
[06:23] <Cyrano_De> SilentJonathan: That might be a better option than an alias.
[06:23] <dsnyders> pete_, It should be sudo /etc/rc.local to run it manually
[06:23] <mezquitale> randal, try reconfiguring your video drivers, press CTRL-ALT-F1, login, and type sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[06:24] <mucous> http://www.steve-oh.com/blog/index.php/2009/03/12/ubuntu-vista-dual-boot-full-encryption-with-truecrypt/
[06:24] <willca> BeWop | basically once you got envyng in there, just execute it and uninstall ATI first and then reinstall
[06:24] <BeWop1> willca: That's the wrong program name
[06:24] <randal> mezquitale: tanks give me 2 sec
[06:24] <randal> thanks
[06:24] <Korlis> RegressLess1: you probably just need to cd to it in a terminal and compile it just open up a terminal cd to the directory of the package and type make then sudo make install
[06:24] <BeWop1> willca: And I can't uninstall ATI because there isn't any ati on there now, It's just running on ubuntu's default
[06:24] <Apollo2366> xmnt : Well that's good to know. No clue about the incorrect packet checksums though?
[06:24] <willca> k
[06:24] <pete_> dsnyders, ok, that worked. but it booted in to my first program on the list and did not run the second?
[06:25] <willca> BeWop | i was assuming you have some sort of one in there
[06:25] <xmnt> Apollo2366, i red up on ye problems above and see ye full conversations of the issues
[06:25] <willca> BeWop | here is a read up on it http://www.brendansheehy.com/blog/?tag=envyng
[06:25] <BeWop1> willca: Nope, fresh install
[06:25] <BeWop1> willca: mmk
[06:25] <SilentJonathan> ok thanks Cyrano_De worked a treat
[06:25] <mezquitale> !themes
[06:25] <BeWop1> willca: With updates, but you know =P

[06:26] <xangua> Beastmode: the best theme is colors - http://code.google.com/p/gnome-colors/
[06:26] <willca> BeWop1 | i think its sudo apt-get install envyng-core
[06:26] <xmnt> Apollo2366, nighty night ye we pirate

[06:26] <mezquitale> maheshjr2000, are you using compiz in gnome?
[06:27] <maheshjr2000> not sure
[06:27] <maheshjr2000> how do I check?
[06:27] <maheshjr2000> im not using any of the advance
[06:27] <maheshjr2000> d
[06:27] <FloodBot2> maheshjr2000: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[06:27] <BeWop1> willca: And just a funny thing "ATI Driver Support In Ubuntu:  The Most Annoying Thing Since Broadcom Wireless" I have both. Figures
[06:27] <Beastmode> xangua thx for link looking at it now
[06:27] <mezquitale> maheshjr2000, so youre not using any visual effects?
[06:27] <xmnt> Apollo2366, aye the sails not be set yet for you
[06:27] <BeWop1> willca: So, what do I do with envyng now?
[06:27] <maheshjr2000> let me double check
[06:27] <glicks> does anyone know how to get a webcam mic working on ubuntu?
[06:28] <maheshjr2000> yep visual effects is set to none
[06:28] <maheshjr2000> am I going to have to go back to metacity :(
[06:28] <glicks> the webcam works fine just no mic
[06:28] <glicks> when i use gnome recorder, i just get static
[06:28] <mucous> what does this mean:
[06:28] <mucous> 2) Installed Ubuntu second using encrypted physical volume with LVM inside it and 2 partions / and swap inside the LVM(at this point, grub was in the MBR)
[06:28] <t0s> my sound isnt as high as it should be, i checked in volume control everything is all the way up, but its like my sound only works half way and on up like there isnt really "low" volume settings
[06:28] <glicks> and when i change the capture device to my webcame ALSA the microphone is always muted, even if i unmute it, if i open it again, its muted again
[06:28] <randal> what is this opposed to do
[06:28] <pete_> dsnyders, ?
[06:28] <swoody> what is the package for "Hardware Drivers" named??
[06:29] <randal> mezquitale: what is this opposed to do
[06:29] <mucous> the "and 2 partions / and swap inside the LVM" part
[06:29] <mezquitale> maheshjr2000, that is the only issue I have encountered with UrT with ubuntu, with extra visual effects weird things would happen while playing the game so I turned it off
[06:29] <maheshjr2000> im 99 percent sure this is due to xmonad
[06:29] <maheshjr2000> but I dont want to stop using it so I was wondering if there is a workaround XD
[06:29] <bahodir> guys, how can i upgrade linux kernel to 2.6.31 on ubuntu 9.04?
[06:30] <mezquitale> randal, it's supposed to reconfigure your video drivers and resolution and shouldnt use compiz or extra visual effects
[06:30] <xangua> bahodir: http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/v2.6.31/
[06:30] <mucous> can anyone help!
[06:30] <bahodir> xangua: thank you
[06:30] <mezquitale> maheshjr2000, only one way to figure it out, try disabling it and see what happens, didnt like that either but that's how I fixed UrT, I disabled what UrT didnt like
[06:31] <randal> mezquitale: its doing nothing
[06:31] <rjb> hi i am using ubuntu 9.04 i have a problem with usb transfer it is really slow 700 KB/sec
[06:31] <randal> mezquitale:  how do i do this i did everyhing now it brought me back to typeing codes what do i do now\
[06:31] <bahodir> should i just install it? won't i have any problems?
[06:31] <mezquitale> randal, went into a virtual console and reconfigured your xserver?
[06:32] <randal> yes i think it reconfigured it idk
[06:32] <rjb> what can i do?
[06:32] <randal> mezquitale: yes i think it reconfigured it
[06:32] <mezquitale> randal, ok so you typed "sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg" and now youre stuck in text mode??
[06:32] <rjb> i have ubuntu 9.04 usb transfer getting really slow
[06:33] <Beastmode> !changethemes
[06:33] <randal> after i went throught some consoul thing\
[06:33] <glicks> anyone know?
[06:33] <glicks> i have a logiteck pro 9000
[06:33] <mezquitale> anyone know how what?
[06:33] <mezquitale> !ask| glicks
[06:33] <glicks> and when i change the capture device to my webcame ALSA the microphone is always muted, even if i unmute it, if i open it again, its muted again
[06:33] <glicks> when i use gnome recorder, i just get static
[06:34] <randal> now what do i do
[06:34] <pete_> can someone help me with an rc.local question ??
[06:34] <randal> mezquitale: now what do i do
[06:34] <mezquitale> glicks, try going into a command line and use "alsamixer" to raise the volume in your mic
[06:34] <Dr_Willis> pete_:  ask the actual question to the channel and see...
[06:34] <mezquitale> randal, so youre basically telling me that youre stuck in text mode?  I do not know what you are seeing, I need to know what you are seeing, reboot your machine first though
[06:35] <pete_> Dr_Willis, let me get pastebin
[06:35] <RegressLess1> Korlis: I can't make it go to that directory
[06:35] <randal> mez
[06:35] <Beastmode> how can i tell if i need gnome theme or kubunut or xubuntu? sorry i dont even know the difference in the 3, thanks
[06:35] <Guest63842> is it possible to get your monitor to a higher resolution than it says it can handle...
[06:35] <glicks> mezquitale, it seems that the programs are having trouble opening the device
[06:35] <rjb> anyone knows how to solve slow usb transfers with ubuntu jaunty?
[06:36] <glicks> i bought this webcam because i read that it worked well with linux
[06:36] <randal> mezquitale: im trying this agian i see the cousoul its asking me if i want to use kernal framebuffer device interface
[06:36] <pete_> Dr_Willis, http://pastebin.org/18817
[06:36] <pete_> its not loading xbindkeys. but the first one runs
[06:36] <mezquitale> Beastmode, what you "need" depends on personal taste or on the speed of your machine. If you want you rmachine to be fast, try xubuntu, if you have a fast machine and want eye candy try kubuntu, if you want somewhere in between try gnome
[06:36] <randal> mezquitale: do i click yes or no
[06:37] <Dr_Willis> pete_:  You normally dont run 'X' commands from Rc.local -  its for system type commands. Not user/X commands.
[06:37] <pete_> Dr_Willis, ok, where do i start those from then on boot.
[06:37] <pete_> ?
[06:37] <Dr_Willis> from the users auto start stuff - is one way.
[06:37] <Dr_Willis> !autostart
[06:37] <pete_> im using xfce
[06:37] <mezquitale> randal, most of the answers should be safe to just click yes
[06:37] <pete_> is there a text file i prefer command line.
[06:38] <Beastmode> mezquitale, so they all will be compatible with my machine though right? just one might be more eye candy but will slow down the machine?
[06:38] <Dr_Willis> pete_: then i suggest reading the xfce docs and see how they do auto-starting of such things.
[06:38] <rjb> hi is it normal an usb2 transfer at 700KB/s?
[06:38] <randal> mez now it asks me a ton of questions about my keyboard?
[06:38] <pete_> Dr_Willis, alright thanks, im going to leave the one that works in there though
[06:38] <Dr_Willis> rjb:  to a flash drive ? or external USb HD? or what.
[06:38] <randal> mezquitale: now it asks me a ton of questions about my keyboard?
[06:38] <rjb> Dr_Willis: flash drive
[06:38] <mezquitale> Beastmode, you can choose whichever you want to use when you first login, just beware that whatever you install last that is the theme you will see when booting up but not exactly what youll be using by default
[06:38] <Dr_Willis> rjb:  seems a tad slow. but some flash drives (the cheap ones) can be a lot slower then others.
[06:39] <Guest842> hi
[06:39] <t0s> i get this when i run apt-get update http://paste.ubuntu.com/273937/
[06:39] <mezquitale> randal, DONT let me detect your monitor, everything just click enter
[06:39] <Dr_Willis> rjb:  i was thinking i see about 4MB/sec here on mine.. vs the 16+MB/sec on a extarnal usb hard drive.
[06:39] <LordVorp_> so, I keep seeing hints online that my 915M chipset can be made to perform acceptably, but can't seem to find any consistent recommendations on HOW... suggestions?
[06:39] <rjb> Dr_Willis: it is a Kingston Datatraveler
[06:39] <Dr_Willis> rjb:  try other drives and see If it affects them all.
[06:40] <mezquitale> randal, meant to say DONT pick the choice to detect your keyboard
[06:40] <xmnt> arr t0s you need be install your keys
[06:40] <rjb> Dr_Willis: ok do you know any reported bug?
[06:40] <tjz> hey guys!!
[06:40] <Beastmode> mezquitale, so lets say i grab a bunch of themes, and want to switch between them, you reccomend reinstalling the one i would want to see when i boot up?
[06:40] <t0s> xmnt, i thought i did so im guessing one didnt install right and i dont know how to tell which one, what can i do?
[06:40] <^mNotIntelligent> hello everyone!
[06:41] <xmnt> t0s, ye need to use yer number on the end there
[06:41] <Dr_Willis> rjb:  never noticed any. Not heard of many in here asking about it either.
[06:41] <randal> mezquitale: thats what i did now its asking what type of keyboard im just doing that
[06:41] <mezquitale> Beastmode, unless you have a pressing need for space you can just leave the themes installed, you dont need to necessarily uninstall anything
[06:41] <xmnt> t0s, 6AF0E1940624A220

[06:49] <randal> mezquitale:  i think i know what it is nvm
[06:49] <Mo> hello
[06:49] <mezquitale> randal, when you boot up in grub you should see a "recovery mode" option, after that you will go all the way down and choose "xfix  Try to auto repair graphic problems"
[06:50] <will-linux> wwww
[06:50] <Mo> I'm Kubuntu... my RESOLUTION keeps resetting at login, how can I fix this?
[06:50] <randal> mezquitale: ok
[06:50] <Mo> I've seen nearly every proposed solution out there... but am confused now
[06:50] <mezquitale> !ask! | Junkbot We are not ignoring you, you are ignoring us
[06:50] <mezquitale> !ask | Junkbot We are not ignoring you, you are ignoring us
[06:50] <randal> mezquitale: then i boot up after fix right
[06:51] <Beastmode> mequitale, I installed a theme, it said "theme succesfully installed", however i do not see it in my themes when i go to system--preferences--appearance

[06:51] <Beastmode> i installed it by dragging it into themes tab
[06:51] <mezquitale> randal, when you boot up in grub you should see a "recovery mode" option, after that you will go all the way down and choose "xfix  Try to auto repair graphic problems".  If you have more questions please ask
[06:51] <^mNotIntelligent> Junkbot, notbody is ignoring you...you are just repeating the same thing "can someone help me" rather that asking the question right away...so just ask and if someone has answer to it he'll respond...so just go ahead
[06:51] <randal> mezquitale: i see my desktop like normal then a couple seconds later the graphics does werid things like black boxes start to apear

[06:55] <randal> mezquitale: well thanks for helping me ill just reinstall my netbook :)
[06:55] <poi77> mezquitale: To be clear---I am trying to log in as root with my password, which is not working (I think this is expected). The sys-admin is trying with the public key, but cannot for some reason. Do you know how to generate such a key? I don't know what error he is getting
[06:56] <guest8458712> Does anyone know how to access a windows share in Ubuntu?
[06:56] <mezquitale> randal, the problem is you are going to be having the same problem yet again
[06:56] <randal> mezquitale: why would i. I just wont turn that seting i turned on
[06:56] <mezquitale> randal, I did not know you had a netbook you have to be specific with your questions, sorry I didnt ask what type of device you had
[06:56] <NoCode> !samba | guest8458712
[06:57] <randal> mezquitale: srry i didnt think it would matter

[06:58] <randal> mezquitale: im just a little confused why do you think i would have this problem agian
[06:58] <guest8458712> thank you both
[06:58] <phix> yaarrhh!!!!
[06:58] <poi77> mezquitale: sure, do you know by any chance how I can generate a public-private key pair such that one will go in authorized_keys  ? Usually, my public keys are binaries
[06:58] <mezquitale> randal, it matters a lot and with a netbook I can tell you for surely you will have problems because it's a new technology, forums might help and this chat will help a lot as well, you just have to be specific and if youre lucky someone that knows the answer to your question will hopefuly log in at the same time
[06:58] <BeWop> Hello, I'm having a problem installing my ATI Radeon IGP 9200 driver, here's the things I've done. It's not working. Any help would be nice. http://bradyn.pastebin.ca/1571566
[06:59] <phix> BeWop: ye should purchase NVIDIA, yaarrhh
[06:59] <mezquitale> randal, because you told me you will reinstall ubuntu on your netbook today yet again
[06:59] <mneptok> randal: which netbook?
[06:59] <BeWop> phix: I'm on a laptop, and I'm way too poor =P
[06:59] <phix> yarrhh
[06:59] <randal> mezquitale: asus eeepc 1008ha
[06:59] <randal> mezquitale: i know why it crashed like this and i reinstalle dit for other reasons this is the first time for this problem
[07:00] <phix> BeWop: NVIDIA all the way, remember that for your next puchase :)
[07:00] <phix> ATI still has buggy drivers
[07:00] <Steil> no
[07:00] <Steil> i use windows 7
[07:00] <mneptok> phix: nVidia's are hardly bug-free
[07:00] <Steil> drivers  are great
[07:00] <BeWop> phix: I know. This laptop was a gift. Either way, I would like to know how to get the drivers working.
[07:00] <phix> mneptok: compared to ATI it is :)
[07:00] <mneptok> BeWop: did you look in the Hardware Drivers app?
[07:00] <mezquitale> randal, we already tried what I usually try and it usually works, what you want to do is to search in google for asus eepc 1008ha and to configure "xorg.conf", that file should be in "/etc/X11/"
[07:00] <randal> mezquitale: it crashed like this because i enabled motion blur and the netbook didnt like it
[07:01] <mneptok> randal: do not use Compiz on a netbook
[07:01] <BeWop> mneptok: Yeah, all that was there were broadcom drivers (Which did help, but that's besides the point)
[07:01] <phix> BeWop: sudo apt-get install the ATI drivers, if that doesn't work then look at your xorg log files
[07:01] <randal> mezquitale: ya ill do that thanks for the help :0
[07:01] <phix> BeWop: See what the error is
[07:01] <randal> mezquitale: ")
[07:01] <phix> yarh
[07:01] <mneptok> BeWop: and which ATI chipset?
[07:01] <randal> mezquitale: LMAO i cant type sorry
[07:01] <BeWop> phix: what command is the ati drivers?
[07:02] <BeWop> mneptok: ATI Radeon IGP 9200
[07:02] <mezquitale> Dr_Willis, would you happen to know how to reconfigure your xserver after it hosed your distro by turning on compiz features?
[07:02] <mezquitale> randal, no problem
[07:02] <mneptok> !info fglrx
[07:02] <phix> BeWop: use synaptic package manager and have a look :) search for it
[07:02] <mezquitale> poi77, what type of encryption are you using?  are you using rsa???
[07:03] <BeWop> phix: K, hold on
[07:03] <phix> BeWop: I think it is called catilyst or somethingl ike that
[07:03] <BeWop> phix: Yeah, it is
[07:03] <Dayofswords> i got to say..... when its oct 2010    ubuntu 10.10 will sound funny
[07:03] <BeWop> phix: It's not in synaptic.
[07:03] <poi77> mezquitale: dss/dsa
[07:03] <BeWop> phix: it's a closed source driver, and even using envyNG didn't work
[07:03] <Dr_Willis> mezquitale:  i tend to use the fusion-icon tool to enable/disble compiz. Not sure how ya trn it off from the command line.    ask in #compiz perhaps
[07:04] <Dayofswords> then if it gets to the 10th version of its kernal.... 10.10 -10
[07:04] <Dr_Willis> mezquitale:  the X server dosent turn on compiz your windowmanager/desktop does.
[07:04] <mneptok> BeWop: there is no binary driver for the 9200
[07:04] <glicks> excuse me, has anyone else had any problems getting their logitech quickcam pro 9000 microphone working? i can see it under sound mixer but i cant unmute the microphone
[07:04] <mneptok> BeWop: you need to use the drivers that install by default with Ubuntu
[07:04] <mezquitale> Dr_Willis, what is your opinion, rsa or dsa encryption???
[07:04] <BeWop> mneptok: I am currently, and glxgears runs at 570.
[07:05] <Trent_> mezquitale: dsa is more secure, is it not?
[07:05] <Dr_Willis> mezquitale:  i tend to use the defaults. :) since it dosent matter much to me.
[07:05] <mneptok> BeWop: you'll have to live with it. ATI does not supply 3D-capable binary drivers for the 9200 under Linux.
[07:05] <mezquitale> poi77,  you have it right, you know how to configure the keys, the question is why youre unable to login??  You can tell what is goign on by attempting to log in using verbose mode
[07:06] <BeWop> mneptok: http://www2.ati.com/drivers/linux/linux_8.8.25.html
[07:06] <BeWop> mneptok: yes they do
[07:06] <mezquitale> Trent_, i believe rsa is more secure, from what I have read, I personally use rsa without  a password, i didnt configure a passphrase

[07:07] <mneptok> BeWop: look at the date for those.
[07:07] <mneptok> BeWop: 3 years old.
[07:08] <kamlesh> hello
[07:08] <mneptok> BeWop: those drivers no longer have packages.
[07:08] <Mo> 1024x768
[07:08] <BeWop> mneptok: Oh piss.
[07:08] <kamlesh> can somebody help me
[07:08] <Mo> the default loading one is too small, I can't see the screen
[07:08] <mneptok> BeWop: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto/ATI
[07:08] <Dr_Willis> Mo:  you mean the 'res is so high - the fonts are reall tiny' ?
[07:09] <dbuell> !help | kamlesh
[07:09] <Dr_Willis> Mo:  or the res is to 'LOW' so the fonts are all blocky/too big.
[07:09] <Mo> no the default is to low, so I can only see a portion of the screen
[07:09] <Mo> I only see the upper left quadrant
[07:09] <kamlesh> i want setup a domain under ubuntu 9.04 desktop edition
[07:09] <BeWop> mneptok: Well, dangit. "The 'fglrx' driver does not support cards earlier than the 9500. "
[07:09] <rjb> how can i know if my flash drive is mounted as usb2 or usb1.1?
[07:09] <mneptok> BeWop: as i said ... :)
[07:09] <Mo> when I change it to 1024x768, I can see the rest of the desktop and its fine
[07:09] <Mo> the issue is that is resets upon login
[07:10] <BeWop> mneptok: well, I'll just have to switch to windows for games then...
[07:10] <Mo> i.e. I can't make this res permanent
[07:10] <dbuell> do you want to log on to a domain or do you want to have your ubuntu server be a domain server or...?
[07:10] <mneptok> BeWop: i'd suggest you switch to a console for games :)
[07:10] <Dr_Willis> Mo:  So specifically - the Login screen has the incorrect resolution. You can  Set it on a per user basis? or does it rember  the users settings also?
[07:10]  * mneptok hugs his PS3
[07:10] <Reactor> guys who can tell me Crunchbang's system requirements?
[07:10] <BeWop> mneptok: I'm a poor dude =P
[07:10] <maxagaz> how to write "scp myfile user@host:/home/me/" with ftp protocol ?
[07:10] <mneptok> Reactor: maybe #crunchbang?
[07:10] <kamlesh> i can not able to configure a domain controller under ubuntu
[07:10] <Dr_Willis> Reactor:  aboyut the same as ubuntu, only proberly a little less...
[07:11] <Mo> I only have 1 user, so that's a non-issue (for me) it's just every time I login I have to change the Res to the useable one
[07:11] <mneptok> BeWop: PS2?
[07:11] <Reactor> mnep
[07:11] <Reactor> mneptok: thx
[07:11] <BeWop> mneptok: Emulated GBA and PSX. Oh, and a wii =P
[07:11] <Mo> it doesn't 'remember' the Resolution
[07:11] <Dr_Willis> Mo:  you have to change the Users res.. once the user logs in - you mean?
[07:11] <BeWop> mneptok: The emulators were failing miserably though, that's the main thing I was trying to fix
[07:11] <AJC_Z0> Mo: Do you have a nVidia or other card?
[07:11] <mezquitale> maxagaz, why would you want to use ftp???  scp is more secure than ftp, why would you want to go back to ftp?
[07:11] <Mo> yes once I login, the resolution is "wrong," so I change it, which is fine.. when I logout and come back, it's "Wrong a agin
[07:12] <BeWop> mneptok: I wanna get my freaking mario tennis on, dangit =P
[07:12] <mneptok> BeWop: sudo apt-get install wesnoth-all
[07:12] <kamlesh> which files should i edit for domain setup
[07:12] <Mo> it's a useless netbook - it has integrated video I believe
[07:12] <BeWop> mneptok: Tremulous is better XD
[07:12] <maxagaz> mezquitale, i need to use a ftp server which is not mine
[07:12] <mneptok> BeWop: only 2D needed for Wesnoth
[07:12] <dbuell> kamlesh: I'm sorry... I just want to understand. Are you trying to have you Ubuntu Desktop be the domain controller or are you trying to add you desktop to a domain controller?
[07:12] <dbuell> your*
[07:12] <mezquitale> maxagaz, i see, sorry but I only use scp LoL
[07:13] <AJC_Z0> Mo: Do you have a /etc/X11/xorg.conf file?
[07:13] <Dr_Willis> Mo:  if its a netbook with intel video. You might have to update your Intel drivers.
[07:13] <BeWop> mneptok: I can play tremulous no problem, along with neverball, which is what confuses me. I can't emulate a freaking GBA or PSX without it running at 70%, but I can play tremulous.
[07:13] <mezquitale> Mo, the easiest solution would be to edit your xorg.conf file, as AJC_Z0 mentioned
[07:13] <Dr_Willis> !intel | Mo
[07:13] <mneptok> BeWop: Tennix?
[07:13] <Mo> yes I believe I've been to that file before/// Dr. Willis - ok that's interesting
[07:13] <kamlesh> no,,, i want to make my ubuntu 9.04 desktop as a domain controller which i can assign to my client computers
[07:13] <BeWop> mneptok: Never played it
[07:13] <Mo> I mean, I'm just suspicious it's not that serious since I can change it and its fine
[07:14] <Mo> it's just that it won't remember the setting
[07:14] <Mo> I could just never logoff (close the clamshell for hibernate) and it'd be ok I suppose
[07:14] <mneptok> BeWop: it's in the package system
[07:14] <poi77> mezquitale: Many thanks for your help. This gave me direction on how to resolve the problem.
[07:14] <kamlesh> can  u give me the script for creating a domain under ubuntu
[07:14] <Dr_Willis> Mo:  or just use the proper xrandr command to set teh proper res at login.....
[07:14] <dbuell> kamlesh: https://help.ubuntu.com/9.04/serverguide/C/samba-dc.html
[07:14] <mneptok> BeWop: or freetennis
[07:15] <phix> yyaarrrhhh!!!!
[07:15] <BeWop> mneptok: Mmk. Well, I guess I'll switch to windows and get my SOTN on =P
[07:15] <Dr_Willis> !info xrandr
[07:15] <mezquitale> poi77, in between you might want to use rsa encryption, I use rsa encryption but I'm too lazy to use a passphrase though
[07:15] <AJC_Z0> I would suggest removing (or renaming while testing) xorg.conf and see if X automagically gets it right
[07:15] <Mo> xrandr was giving me issues
[07:15] <dbuell> kamlesh: There are several other methods as well. https://help.ubuntu.com/9.04/serverguide/C/index.html should help you out. Though you are not using the server version all of the packages are available for the desktop, but may not include GUI's
[07:15] <Dr_Willis> Mo:  then that may be the whole issue...
[07:16] <Dr_Willis> Mo:  might be a good idea to upgrade the intel drivers.. or do whatver you want. :)
[07:16] <kamlesh> can you send me the original config file for domain setup
[07:16] <Mo> ok... to be fair I'm rather confused by now... I've been doing this for hours... I can't tell the difference anynmomore
[07:17] <Dr_Willis> Mo:  and you really need to figure out WhAT the exact video chipset is.
[07:17] <Mo> oh ok I got xrandr to respond
[07:17] <Dr_Willis> Mo:  some of your other 'fix's may of goofed up things.
[07:17] <Mo> do you know the command to change Resolution?
[07:17] <glicks> how can i make it so pulseaudio does not start when i boot?
[07:18] <dbuell> kamlesh: for samba? If you follow the tutorial that I included you will be able to run your Desktop as a domain controller
[07:18] <Dr_Willis> Mo:  xrandr -s <size>/<width>x<height> or --size <size>/<width>x<height>
[07:18] <Dr_Willis> Mo:  from the 'xrandr' docs/manpages/help :)
[07:18] <syk> how do i reset gnome panel to the original way
[07:18] <Dr_Willis> Mo:  xrandr -s 1024x768
[07:19] <mezquitale> Mo, like Dr_Willis suggested, you can upgrade the drivers, the quickfix would be to edit your xorg file which I did on my laptop with an old intel video card
[07:20] <Dr_Willis> i put an icon on my desktop to run that xrandr command to reset my laptops monitor. after wine games goof it up :)
[07:23] <dbuell> umm that was alot of joins/leaves at once..

[07:44] <Dayofswords> its shiretoko in juanty? no wonder i couldnt find... why isnt there a normal 3.5?
[07:45] <navetz> so I can use flash, but then no music
[07:45] <rashed2020> ShYARRRGHtoko
[07:45] <aaron11> !SupperOS
[07:45] <navetz> or I can use music player, but no flash
[07:45] <Reactor> navetz: weird problem
[07:45] <pshr> where is firefox installed by default'
[07:45] <navetz> it seems to only be a juanty issue
[07:45] <leaf-sheep> Varth: You're using Firefox 3.5 -- but it's all cosmetics which is considered unnecessary.
[07:45] <ravindu> navetz: are using usb sound?
[07:45] <leaf-sheep> Varth: And Karmic will be released next month. You'll have your Firefox there. :o
[07:45] <Dayofswords> SupperOS - previous release... LunchOS
[07:45] <Reactor> navetz: one sound app at one X session u mean?
[07:45] <mezquitale> you know what, im not waiting until october, im going to download the alpha version and see if karmic plays well in ubuntustudio version with my machine
[07:45] <phix> Varth: arrghhH!! ok :)
[07:45] <navetz> ravindu:  no onboard soundcard
[07:46] <navetz> Reactor: I think so.
[07:46] <Varth> leaf-sheep: Are you aware of any way to re-brand it before Karmic is released?
[07:46] <Reactor> navetz: -_-
[07:46] <navetz> My system sounds seem to always work though
[07:46] <ravindu> navetz:Are you using ALSA?
[07:46] <navetz> ravindu: yes
[07:46] <Reactor> navetz: try another
[07:46] <navetz> ravindu: actually I don't know.
[07:46] <ravindu> Try to use OSS instead.
[07:46] <leaf-sheep> Varth: I think you can (at least) change the icon to Firefox. And few similar stuffs like that, but that's silly IMO.
[07:47] <Varth> leaf-sheep: True...
[07:47] <navetz> I am using HAD Intel according to my system settings
[07:47] <Varth> leaf-sheep: I guess a month isn't so bad...
[07:48] <Reactor> navetz: nono - system>preferences>Sound
[07:48] <Reactor> navetz: there select different from alsa
[07:48] <ravindu> navetz: go to sounds in preference and set OSS their and try and test
[07:48] <Reactor> navetz: 'n' try
[07:48] <pshr> !falsh
[07:48] <pshr> !flashplayer
[07:48] <Reactor> navetz: and*
[07:48] <leaf-sheep> Varth: It's not a life-or-death matter but I like having two browsers -- especially when both of them have 30 opened tabs. >_>
[07:48] <navetz> ravindu: Reactor  oh sorry I installed kde so my setup might be a little bit different
[07:48] <navetz> I'll try to find it
[07:49] <Reactor> navetz: ok ok I'll wait
[07:49] <syk> mezquitale, ubuntu 9.04 sorry fot the late response
[07:49] <Reactor> navetz: brb in 3 min-s
[07:49] <navetz> okay
[07:49] <aaron11> im getting the live image of ubuntu jaunty jackolope
[07:49] <mezquitale> syk, and what is your issue with jaunty?
[07:49] <aaron11> iso
[07:50] <phix> wy is firefox being rebranded for?
[07:50] <mezquitale> aaron11, sorry to burst your bubble but the new ISO is due to be released in about 4 weeks
[07:50] <syk> mezquitale, how do i reset the gnome panel to default
[07:50] <ravindu> softpedia.com always Ubuntu friendly, check out on new Karmic alpha 6 relaese.
[07:50] <phix> s/(w)(y)/\1h\2/
[07:50] <Reactor> navetz: back
[07:51] <navetz> Reactor ravindu: I think i found it but it does not show OSS or ALSA. It shows HDA Intel, Pulseaudio, and esound
[07:51] <Reactor> navetz: o_O
[07:51] <mezquitale> syk, you can try this guide however I suggest you backup your files first: http://www.celsius1414.com/node/878
[07:51] <aaron11> mezquitale: ? what no i meant i went to get ubuntu and chose my location and then clicked download and now its at work
[07:51] <Reactor> navetz: try to select different things there
[07:51] <aaron11> 0_o
[07:51] <aaron11> o_0
[07:52] <Reactor> navetz: maybe it will help
[07:52] <aaron11> o_O
[07:52] <Reactor> aaron11: ;)
[07:52] <mezquitale> aaron11, yes i understand.  I mean youre downloading jaunty when the next ubuntu version(newer than jaunty) is going to be released in about 4 weeks
[07:52] <navetz> Reactor: I'm going to try all of them
[07:52] <aaron11> mezquitale: haha! i cant wait <:(
[07:53] <Reactor> navetz: ok I'll wait
[07:53] <aleron6> can anybody help me i used this guide http://monespaceperso.org/blog-en/2009/08/31/upgrade-alsa-1-0-21-on-ubuntu-jaunty-9-04/ to upgrade my alsa and now i get no sound
[07:53] <mezquitale> aaron11, problem is the next version(Karmic Koala) wont be supported in this channel, it will be supported in another channel
[07:54] <navetz> Reactor: okay same porblem with pulseaudio
[07:54] <ravindu> ALSA always gives me problem with my USB spekers.
[07:54] <Dr_Willis> aleron6:  alternative way to upgrade alsa -> http://webupd8.blogspot.com/2009/08/alsa-upgrade-script-for-debian-ubuntu.html
[07:54] <aaron11> mezquitale: huh O_O why not?
[07:54] <Reactor> navetz: and next?
[07:54] <Madpilot> mezquitale, upgrading from one release to the next is usually straightforward, so people should keep downloading 9.04 (Jaunty) until Karmic final is out
[07:55] <ravindu> Do not use karmic until final release rather testing.
[07:55] <Madpilot> aaron11, Karmic is still in alpha releases - early test releases - and all of that support is over in #ubuntu+1
[07:55] <navetz> Reactor: hum i was wrong, when i set pulseaudio and esound I get a message at the bottom of the screen saying Failed falling back on HDA Intel (ALC 861 Analog)
[07:55] <mezquitale> aaron11, I do not know why  karmic koala wont be supported here, it struck me as a surprise as well
[07:56] <mezquitale> !karmic
[07:56] <Reactor> navetz: ? o_O
[07:56] <Madpilot> mezquitale, when Karmic has it's final release, it'll be supported here. Until then, #ubuntu+1
[07:56] <Reactor> navetz: strange things
[07:56] <navetz> Reactor: yes this is a very annoying problem :(
[07:56] <Shantanu> how can I install ubuntu on a western digital 1TB external usb harddisk through windows as my laptop's cd burner is screwed and can't bburn/read..... ???
[07:56] <leaf-sheep> mezquitale, aaron11: When Karmic is released next month, #ubuntu will be a haven for people with their problems.  Whereabout Ubuntu 9.10 Lynching Leper will be in #ubuntu+1
[07:56] <mezquitale> Madpilot, thank you very much for clearing everything
[07:56] <Reactor> navetz: idk what todo
[07:56] <Dr_Willis> Shantanu:  if you got a flash drive. You can use unetbootin to make a bootable flash drive you can install from.
[07:57] <navetz> Reactor: thanks for trying
[07:57] <Reactor> navetz: np ;)
[07:57] <Reactor> navetz: try to change smthg - it will help I think
[07:57] <mezquitale> leaf-sheep, thank  you for clearing the confusion that I had, I did not know that
[07:57] <Madpilot> leaf-sheep, Lycanthropic Llama, isn't it? :)
[07:57] <Callum_> ...lol with building GCC 4.0.3
[07:57] <Callum_> configure: error: Building in the source directory is not supported in this release. See http://gcc.gnu.org/install/configure.html for more details.
[07:57] <Callum_> what in the world does that mean
[07:58] <navetz> Reactor: I've been trying I just dont nkow what lol
[07:58] <glick> does audacity only work with alsa?
[07:58] <Shantanu> Dr_Willis: How do i do tht .... srry but a total newbie
[07:58] <leaf-sheep> Madpilot: What? Not Lumping Locust? :<
[07:58] <Callum_> glick: It works with any sound server
[07:59] <Reactor> navetz: maybe someone there knows how to help u with yr problem
[07:59] <glick> Callum_, when i choose a recording device, i only see ALSA options
[07:59] <Reactor> navetz: or try to look in internet
[07:59] <mezquitale> glick, audacity works just fine in my laptop running jaunty which uses pulseaudio
[07:59] <navetz> Reactor: I will continue looking
[07:59] <Reactor> navetz: ok
[08:00] <Callum_> glick: Thats may be because PulseAudio hasn't registered any recording devices?
[08:00] <Reactor> navetz: or ask me if u need help
[08:00] <Callum_> glick: PulseAudio devices come up as as standard sound devices, just like ALSA
[08:00] <alesan> hi what is a faster alternative to the spreadsheet in openoffice? it must be blazing fast to load, then I do not need any advanced feature
[08:00] <glick> Callum_, how can i make it register devices
[08:00] <Steil> you can't
[08:00] <Steil> alesan: gnumeric
[08:00] <glick> i set autospawn to no
[08:00] <glick> should i change that back to yes
[08:00] <glick> ?
[08:00] <ravindu> nacetz:try to google I got solved such problem of my friend's computer adding some code to /etc/sound file nut not remember now.
[08:00] <Steil> yup
[08:00] <Dr_Willis> Shantanu:  download 'unetbootin' run it.. tell it the location of the.iso file.. let it do its job.. reboot  from flash...
[08:01] <alesan> Steil, good. do you also know something KDE or Qt based?
[08:01] <Callum_> glick: You may want to the people at PulseAudio related channels, forums or mailing lists
[08:01] <glick> Callum_, should i set autospawn back to yes?
[08:01] <Steil> alesan koffice maybe?
[08:01] <leaf-sheep> alesan: Maybe gnumeric?  Run "sudo apt-cache search spreadsheet"
[08:01] <mezquitale> glick, youre right, I haven't been able to record in my lapto running jaunty, let me take a look into it and see what I can figure out
[08:01] <Callum_> glick: no idea
[08:01] <navetz> ravindu: okay I'll look around
[08:01] <Dr_Willis> i recall the old 'console based' 'sc' spread sheet from years ago. :)
[08:01] <glick> whew im releaved that im not going crazy mezquitale :)
[08:02] <alesan> damn gnumeric requires an additional 43MB of disk space? is it crazy?
[08:02] <Callum_> glick: What shows up in the recording devices in Audacity and in the sound config in Ubuntu?
[08:02] <Shantanu> so will it install from usb or it will just boot from usb stick??
[08:02] <ravindu> nacetz: try this..http://www.ubuntugeek.com/simple-guide-to-sound-solutions-for-hardyintrepid-and-jaunty-jackalope-users.html
[08:02] <Dr_Willis> alesan:  Oh the Humanity! 43mb! :) thats like 10 mp3 songs. :)
[08:02] <ravindu> navetz: sorry.
[08:02] <Dr_Willis> Shantanu:  yes and yes... :) boot it.. run the installer
[08:02] <Shantanu> Dr_Willis: so will it install from flash or it will just boot from flash??
[08:03] <Shantanu> ok...
[08:03] <Dr_Willis> Shantanu:  then you have a nice bootable flash disk for a 'rescue' tool.
[08:03] <Shantanu> thanks...
[08:03] <titan_ark> hey need some advice to remove ubuntu partition and retain vista.
[08:03] <titan_ark> i am doing this cos i want to shift to the wubi installer
[08:04] <Shantanu> will buy a 1gb one only for this purpose..... in case...
[08:04] <yangsansheng_> clear
[08:04] <alesan> Dr_Willis, now I am using a textfile with a text editor. installing 43MB of stuff just to be a little more organized is not justified
[08:04] <glick> Callum_, http://img19.imageshack.us/i/screenshotaudacityprefe.png/
[08:04] <Jeruvy> titan_ark: just delete the virtual disk
[08:04] <Dr_Willis> alesan:  check out 'tiddlywiki' its a notetaking 'web  tool' that runs totally in a browser :)
[08:04] <titan_ark> Jeruvy I presently have Ubuntu on a partition of my laptop hdd
[08:04] <Dr_Willis> alesan:  theres other organizing/note/whatever tools out there as well.
[08:04] <alesan> well I need it offline also...
[08:05] <Dr_Willis> alesan:  yes.. tiddlywiki runs wever you have a browser.
[08:05] <Callum_> glick: what does "ALSA: pulse" do? Sounds like a PulseAudio device to me
[08:05] <titan_ark> i want to remove ubuntu and retain vista
[08:05] <Dr_Willis> its not online
[08:05] <Jeruvy> titan_ark: did you do a non-wubi install?  Then just format the partition.
[08:05] <glick> Callum_, i selected it, it doesnt do anything
[08:05] <alesan> it's getting too complicated, I think I will stay with a text file :)
[08:05] <alesan> thank you anyway
[08:05] <alesan> !!!
[08:05] <ravindu> I found boycott Novell and what for RedHat?
[08:05] <Dr_Willis> alesan:  go back to MS-DOS 1.0 while you are at it? :)
[08:06] <titan_ark> Jeruvy, yes its a non wubi install that I am using now. But then wat abt the grub? i would like to get my old mbr back too
[08:06] <Callum_> glick: what about the GNOME sound properties?
[08:06] <glick> Callum_, the gnome sound properties?
[08:06] <Callum_> System -> Preferences -> Sound?
[08:06] <glick> what about them?
[08:06] <titan_ark> i dont have a vista installation disc cos it came oem installed
[08:06] <Jeruvy> titan_ark: ah. from a windows CD, run fixmbr
[08:06] <Callum_> Screenshot that please
[08:07] <titan_ark> Jeruvy :( i dont have the disc. I have a recovery drive created by HP, but the damn thing doesnt give me a cli to run fixmbr!
[08:07] <Jeruvy> titan_ark: that will work too :)
[08:08] <phalseone> using moonos i get this message any hlp or how do we do this error message org.freedesktop.Hal.Device.permissiondeniedbypolicy
[08:08] <Jeruvy> titan_ark: oh, so you don't have a installed recovery console?  then your pooched
[08:08] <glick> Callum_, http://img197.imageshack.us/i/screenshotsoundpreferen.png/
[08:08] <Shantanu> Dr_Willis: after installing ubuntu to the external hdd.... where will it install grub, on external or internal.... coz i want it to be portable so tht i can go anywhere and start using my system
[08:08] <titan_ark> Jeruvy: but it doesnt throw up the cli. i get a gui that asks me if I want to restore to factory settings or restore to an old date
[08:08] <titan_ark> :|
[08:09] <linuxguy2009> Would it be possible to have Ubuntu use "/dev/shm" as a replacement for the /tmp folder. The /dev/shm is a ramdisk and since this netbook has 2GB now it would cut down on disk access when browsing and also speed some things up. Anyone know if this is possible?
[08:09] <Jeruvy> titan_ark: I can't help with windows issues
[08:09] <Dr_Willis> Shantanu:  no idea. I dont normally installto a exteranl usb hard drive. Ive heard in some cases you have to edit the /boot/grub/menu.lst on the usb drive to make it boot properly from the usb drive. So i would Guess it installs the MBR to the usb drive
[08:09] <trijntje> linuxguy2009, http://www.ibm.com/developerworks/library/l-fs3.html
[08:09] <titan_ark> Jeruvy :( sI apologize for asking here
[08:10] <Callum_> glick: I'm not sure, ask the Audacity guys
[08:10] <Dr_Willis> linuxguy2009:  ive seen some  netbook tweak threads on the forums that mention similer things i recall
[08:10] <Callum_> not sure what the channel is for it...
[08:10] <glick> i guess its broke
[08:10] <glick> sound record that is
[08:10] <Jeruvy> titan_ark: you may want to backup any data, and reinstall
[08:10] <nix_chix0r> yo
[08:10] <linuxguy2009> Great thanks guys!!
[08:10] <Callum_> sound recording works fine for me on my ALSA-based setup in Audacity
[08:11] <titan_ark> Jeruvy: ah :O last resort
[08:11] <nix_chix0r> has any one played half life 2 on ubuntu with wine?
[08:11] <dirk_> a long long time ago
[08:11] <Dr_Willis> nix_chix0r:  according to the wine app database.. a lot of people do.
[08:11] <Shantanu> Dr_Willis: and if i want to boot to internal hdd w/o removing external or changing the boot order
[08:11] <Dr_Willis> appdb
[08:12] <dirk_> nix_chix0r: give playonlinux a try
[08:12] <Dr_Willis> Shantanu:  tell the pc what drive to boot I guess.
[08:12] <nix_chix0r> i have a fairly decent media pc that i installed wine on. anyway half life 2 is very laggy even though i turned off the fancy graphics on my computer
[08:12] <Dr_Willis> Shantanu:  you got to pick one by default.. so you could just boot the usb one normally.. then select the windows os - I guess.
[08:12] <dirk_> nix_chix0r: it will easy the install and set all settings correctly..
[08:12] <nix_chix0r> trying to figure out if i need to update my video card driver, or mess with the wine congif to make the FPS faster
[08:12] <dirk_> nix_chix0r: which 3d card do you have?
[08:13] <Shantanu> Dr_Willis: ya tht has to be done manualy in the usb
[08:13] <nix_chix0r> my video card is asus nvidia geforce 6200
[08:14] <nix_chix0r> amd athlon 64 x2 6000 with 4gb ram couple TB it should run fairly fast
[08:14] <liz_> what gui package manager lets me sort packages by popularity?
[08:14] <wekt> Where do you search for and enter bug reports for Koala?
[08:15] <Dr_Willis> !bug
[08:15] <dirk_> nix_chix0r: i ran HL2 on a 2Ghz Athlan64 with 1GB and an Nvidia 5800 back then... it was very playable..
[08:15] <dirk_> nix_chix0r: not saying i got 60 frames or so, some bits were slow, but mostly it was fine on that HW
[08:15] <musikgoat> !karmic | wekt You might also find suggestions or identification of known issues here
[08:15] <nix_chix0r> dirk_, yeah there should be no reason for the lag which is why i thought i would ask in here instead of wine
[08:16] <dirk_> nix_chix0r: make sure 3d accell is enabled
[08:16] <liz_> it's not synaptic, but it's usually something installed
[08:16] <liz_> I can't find it now though
[08:16] <nix_chix0r> dirk_, how do i do that
[08:16] <dirk_> nix_chix0r: have you tried installing with playonlinux? http://www.playonlinux.com/en/
[08:16]  * andyL thinks he will convert his gaming pc into a linux workstation
[08:17]  * leaf-sheep thinks he will convert his linux workstation into an alarm clock
[08:17] <dirk_> nix_chix0r: dirk@dirk-laptop:~$ glxinfo | egrep -i rendering
[08:17] <dirk_> nix_chix0r: should say - yes
[08:17] <nix_chix0r> oh yeah it's enabled
[08:17] <nix_chix0r> i was doing that earlier
[08:19] <nix_chix0r> i think i'll give that play on linux a try
[08:19] <nix_chix0r> maybe the fps will be faster
[08:20] <Araneidae> Trying to select xfontsel package and synaptic says: "Package xfontsel has no available version, but exists in the database."
[08:20] <dirk_> nix_chix0r: did you follow the recommendations on http://appdb.winehq.org/objectManager.php?sClass=version&iId=2890
[08:20] <Araneidae> Can anyone either suggest an alternative to xfontsel or a fix?
[08:20] <dirk_> nix_chix0r: basically those are the things playonlinux will do for you
[08:21] <liz_> how can I sort packages by popularity?
[08:24] <hipitihop> can someone recommend a good networking channel ? I'm tring to setup a third router at home (this time bridged wireless) and need a hand as even though it works, both routers quickly bog down and hardly give clients a look in so need a hand
[08:24] <Wildbat> is there a command to check the size of a dir in terminal?
[08:24] <wers> how do i mass convert files? like 10 mov files to mp4
[08:25] <Dr_Willis> wers:  mencoder/ffmpeg are command line tools you can use for that.
[08:25] <cocoblend> hipitihop: try #ddwrt
[08:25] <Dr_Willis> wers:  there are front ends like winff  that can do it also
[08:25] <StapleAttack> was wondering how i get my mic woking on ubuntu, it's a mic built into my logitech cam, none of the settings i try to adjust seem to work at all
[08:25] <wers> Dr_Willis, niiice :) thanks :)
[08:25] <jediyoda> quit
[08:25] <Dr_Willis> wers:  or avidemux has scripting features
[08:26] <wers> Dr_Willis, i would have to make custom scripts for that?
[08:26] <Dr_Willis> wers:  or avidemux  has examples of 'convert all in a dir' scripts ive found on forums
[08:27] <Dr_Willis> wers:  or use winff. it can do it quickly.. OR learn the command line and write your own little script
[08:27] <Dr_Willis> !info winff
[08:27] <Dr_Willis> !info avidemux
[08:28] <wers> Dr_Willis, just installed winff. it looks exactly what i need :D
[08:28] <StapleAttack> i wonder if there is even a solution to this issue, everything i do seems useless
[08:28] <wers> Dr_Willis, the presets are nice too. i just hope they had one for the iPhone/iPod touch. oh well. next time. this is fine for now :D
