[06:42] <gnomefreak> there read that
[06:42] <V4Vendetta> johndarkhorse~ scsi ?
[06:42] <dooglus> insta`: it's quick for me.  can you ssh to the host normally without a delay?
[06:42] <Belboz99> okay, anyway, I had an error in a scanning application called Vuescan, and now all I get is: Error: Unable to initialize gtk, is DISPLAY set properly?
[06:42] <Belboz99>  whenever I try to run it
[06:42] <equador> thx
[06:42] <Howitzer> sesq, i mean when you type in your username and password, those letters are way too small, the theme itself is okay
[06:43] <sesq> Howitzer, ok
[06:43] <sesq> has XGL already out ???
[06:43] <insta`> dooglus: usually
[06:43] <gnomefreak> sesq: it is in dapper and both dapper and xgl may not work
[06:43] <insta`> Does it do any sort of caching on the remote host?
[06:43] <lkcore> sesq, dapper
[06:43] <mikebot> ugh, why is playing videso so laggy...is there a better player for avis?
[06:44] <insta`> mikebot: what are you using?
[06:44] <mikebot> insta`, totem
[06:44] <Extreme_Unction> I like Amarok
[06:44] <V4Vendetta> can somone tell me what kind of HD this is? WDC WD1600JD-22H
[06:44] <V4Vendetta> is it ATA SATA or what ?
[06:44] <lkcore> mikebot, mplayer.
[06:44] <johndarkhorse> mikebot: please don't paste in here
[06:44] <mikebot> johndarkhorse, okay, sorry
[06:44] <mikebot> lkcore, thanks
[06:45] <gnomefreak> V4Vendetta: without looking at it how are we gonna know  (try google) google knows all
[06:45] <insta`> mikebot: definitely use mplayer, with the xv driver if possible (seems to be the best performance)
[06:45] <dooglus> insta`: I've not looked into it much.  I don't know about caching.  It just seems to work (once you've got it set up).  I've raised a bug in malone about the problems, but as usual nothing happened
[06:45] <mikebot> insta`, just search 'xv' for that driver?
[06:45] <Extreme_Unction> Does anyone know if Gaim uses ALSA?
[06:45] <mikebot> insta`, where can i get mplayer? i can't find it in synaptic
[06:45] <Extreme_Unction> I can't get software mixing to work with amorak and gaim even if I start it with aoss
[06:46] <lkcore> mikebot, and install win32codecs
[06:46] <insta`> mikebot: you have to enable the universe and multiverse repositories.
[06:46] <lkcore> mikebot, google :) or ubuntu guide
[06:46] <insta`> How many mhz is your processor, and how much RAM does the system have?
[06:46] <V4Vendetta> gnomefreak~ Direct-Access ANSI SCSI ?
[06:46] <Laibsch> !openoffice
[06:46] <ubotu> Laibsch: What? Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/
[06:46] <Sicka> I am having trouble burning DVDs. dvd::rip doesn't seem to work... any suggestions?
[06:46] <johndarkhorse> ubotu: tell mikebot about mplayer
[06:46] <sesq> lkcore, you mean in ubuntu dapper drake ?
[06:46] <johndarkhorse> mikebot: ubotu is sending you info
[06:47] <mikebot> johndarkhorse, thanks
[06:47] <pianoboy3333> Anyone here good at editing xorg.conf?
[06:47] <insta`> You're persistant pianoboy3333
[06:47] <insta`> What do you need?
[06:47] <Sanitarium_23> hi, could someone helo me hot to set up my internet conection with ubuntu, since I'm using ADSL over the eth, shortly... how to set up  conection over the PPPoe ?
[06:47] <V4Vendetta> is SCSI an SATA interface ?
[06:47] <fangorious> !anyone
[06:47] <ubotu> probably 90% of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..."  Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out? <hint>
[06:48] <pianoboy3333> insta`: Is there someway to specify that my monitor is being hooked up with a DVI cable?
[06:48] <Sicka> I am having trouble burning DVDs. dvd::rip doesn't seem to work... any suggestions?
[06:48] <fangorious> pianoboy3333: why would you need to?
[06:48] <lkcore> sesq, ?
[06:48] <Extreme_Unction> What's the name of the win32 codecs for apt-get?
[06:48] <Laibsch> Where do I get the latest version of openoffice.org?  The sources I found still seem to install as openoffice.org2 which coming from a debian background smacks of a prerelease.
[06:48] <insta`> Extreme_Unction: w32codecs
[06:49] <btdown> !win32codec
[06:49] <ubotu> Huh? Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/, btdown
[06:49] <btdown> !win32codecs
[06:49] <ubotu> somebody said win32codecs was binary only codecs that some call evil., and they're available from http://seveas.ubuntulinux.nl/
[06:49] <pianoboy3333> fangorious: My booting screen is distorted, I use dapper, but I had the exact same problem in breezy. Also, when the booting screen fails and I get the terminal, that too is distorted.
[06:49] <Sanitarium_23> How to setup up conection with UBUNTU over the eth0, I mean PPPoE ? Please !
[06:50] <Sicka> Okay perhaps starting my questions with "does anybody out there..." will be more effective....
[06:50] <sesq> lkcore, nvm, dapper is already out, or only beta test ?
[06:50] <FlannelKing> pianoboy3333: check your monitor settings?
[06:50] <Sicka> Does anybody know how to help me with burning DVDs?
[06:50] <fangorious> pianoboy3333: what graphics chip are you using?
[06:50] <dradul> Sanitarium_23, "sudo pppoeconf" at a terminal should do it.
[06:50] <pianoboy3333> FlannelKing, with the buttons that are on the monitor?
[06:50] <pianoboy3333> fangorious: RADEON X600
[06:50] <gnomefreak> sesq: not even beta yet
[06:50] <FlannelKing> pianoboy3333: yeah.
[06:50] <amyn> how do i make sure that everything is ok in my hostname and there are no errors in the hostname files ?
[06:50] <tdn> When I'm starting up Open Box from GDM selecting "system default session" it does not start my adesklets. My .xsession is located on http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/9636.
[06:51] <Sanitarium_23> dradul, thank you I will try it !
[06:51] <pianoboy3333> FlannelKing: There is a thing for image settings, but I can't select it, once I get into ubuntu, the DVI works fine
[06:51] <pianoboy3333> But I thought I could configure ubuntu for it somehow...
[06:51] <Sicka> New question: Is there any particular reason why nobody cares to answer my first question?
[06:51] <lkcore> sesq, current stable is still breezy.
[06:52] <FlannelKing> pianoboy3333: shrug, if it striaightens out, then its not a monitor setting, with your original description of "everything is distored" it sounded like your monitor was just set wierd
[06:52] <equador> how unmount partition ?
[06:52] <mikebot> lkcore, insta` dooglus fangorious, thanks for all the help guys, i gotta run
[06:52] <mikebot> cya
[06:52] <btdown> equador umount
[06:52] <PuMpErNiCkLe> Sicka: Don't use 'anyone'.
[06:52] <pianoboy3333> FlannelKing: I've done a couple factory resets.....
[06:52] <PuMpErNiCkLe> Sicka: Just ask about your specific problem.
[06:52] <FlannelKing> Sicka: usually because it's scrolled off the screen by the time we glace back, or whatnot.
[06:52] <raggi> can someone explain why postgresql 8.0 doesn't listen on a local TCP socket?
[06:53] <wastrel> pianoboy3333:  your vga settings are messed up but once your X takes over the display it works?
[06:53] <Sicka> Fair enough gentlement
[06:53] <Extreme_Unction> Does anyone know where I can get a debian package for Cube? (http://cube.sourceforge.net/)
[06:53] <sesq> lkcore, if dapper will be stable, the XGL will be too stable ?
[06:53] <raggi>  am i missing something obvious?
[06:53] <Sicka> So
[06:53] <fangorious> pianoboy3333: in the Device section for your monitor, try adding Option "MonitorLayout" "LVDS"
[06:53] <pianoboy3333> LVDS?
[06:53] <pianoboy3333> ok....
[06:53] <Sicka> I am having problems burning DVDs. dvd::rip does not seem to work. Any suggestions?
[06:53] <fangorious> pianoboy3333: X didn't work for me in dapper with an Ati chip using the 'ati' driver without that option
[06:53] <l00p> I have problems trying to install Ubuntu. I'm trying to install it on free space on a SATA drive. On the drive I have two existing NTFS partitions and few gigs of free space (I had Mandrake 10 installed on it before). When I try to install Ubuntu and it comes to partitioning I can't see any partitions on my hard disk. It looks as if it is a brand new drive. I have the option to partition it on my own but that way I would loose all data. When I try to
[06:54] <pianoboy3333> fangorious: it says option "DPMS" take that out?
[06:54] <Extreme_Unction> NTFS? Who cares.
[06:54] <fangorious> pianoboy3333: no, add a new line
[06:54] <pianoboy3333> ok
[06:54] <pianoboy3333> fangorious: do you use dapper?
[06:55] <gnomefreak> ubotu tell Sicka about dvd
[06:55] <fangorious> pianoboy3333: yeah. and i didn't have trouble with the usplash boot graphic, so this might not be the same issue, but it's worth a try
[06:55] <PuMpErNiCkLe> Sicka: Have you seen this page? http://ubuntuguide.org/#dvdrip
[06:56] <netzmeister> hm since the last dapper update my linux doesn't boot..
[06:56] <netzmeister> grub doesn't find the partitions..
[06:56] <netzmeister> when i edit the grub lines manualy he finds the kernel but not the root filesystem..
[06:56] <Lorvija> anyone using d-link g650 pcmcia wireless internet card on laptop?
[06:56] <gnomefreak> netzmeister: for dapper issues try #ubuntu+1
[06:56] <netzmeister> k
[06:57] <Sicka> PuMpErNiCkLe: No not yet I will check it out thanks
[06:57] <fangorious> gnomefreak: really? i've answered/asked plenty of dapper questions in here
[06:57] <pianoboy3333> fangorious: My opengl is also broke, what gfx card driver should I use? ATI? here's my xorg.conf: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/9637
[06:57] <gnomefreak> fangorious: read the topic please
[06:57] <Extreme_Unction> What video card do you have?
[06:57] <fangorious> pianoboy3333: I would try to use either the fglrx binary driver from Ati or the open source radeon driver
[06:58] <PuMpErNiCkLe> Sicka: np :)
[06:58] <twibbler> good evening everyone.
[06:58] <pianoboy3333> fangorious: what's the open source radeon driver?
[06:58] <fangorious> gnomefreak: neat.
[06:58] <sesq> Will be XGL available on stable ubuntu dapper ?
[06:58] <Extreme_Unction> omg
[06:58] <gnomefreak> sesq: hopfully
[06:58] <Extreme_Unction> #ubuntu+1 for dapper discussion?
[06:58] <colm> Extreme_Unction, yes
[06:59] <fangorious> pianoboy3333: it's an open source driver for some radeon cards, and it's called radeon (that's what you put in xorg.conf). i've never used it
[06:59] <gnomefreak> sesq: should be unless something very very bad happens
[06:59] <lkcore> sesq,  it will be although don't thing that will be in main.
[06:59] <skazi> hmm...anyone know a good site for new songs?
[06:59] <mlopes> hi. I've two partitions one with breezy and another with dapper. GRUB is now managed by Dapper but I'd like to change that to Breezy. I've tried dpkg-reconfigure grub but it didn't do nothing
[06:59] <mlopes> any ideas?
[06:59] <gnomefreak> Extreme_Unction: yes thats why that channel was made
[06:59] <colm> skazi, last.fm and pandora.com
[06:59] <clearscreen> can anyone tell me why I get a black screen on my laptop when I start the xserver? I have an Acer 5023 WLMI with a Ati x700 pci-e videochip
[06:59] <lkcore> mlopes, try grub-install
[06:59] <ceteh> hi
[06:59] <mlopes> lkcore, no params?
[06:59] <lkcore> mlopes, man grub-install
[07:00] <fangorious> clearscreen: you using the 'ati' driver or the binary 'fglrx' driver
[07:00] <pdani_> hi
[07:00] <tdn> How do I get gdm to run my .xsession?
[07:00] <pdani_> i've an usb audiotel edge modex. i would like to connect with it on gprs to internet. can i do it on linux?
[07:00] <sesq> when will be stable ubuntu dapper ?
[07:00] <pianoboy3333> fangorious: lemme look, lemme restart and see if that other monitor thing worked...
[07:00] <twibbler> Does anybody know how to setup mobile phone (Motorola V3*) to act as modem please ?.
[07:00] <clearscreen> fangorious let me boot and check my xorg file
[07:00] <gnomefreak> sesq: april 20th
[07:00] <sesq> gnomefreak, thx
[07:01] <fangorious> clearscreen: if it's the 'ati' driver try switching to the fglrx driver
[07:01] <clearscreen> fangorious I did a little search
[07:01] <clearscreen> on the forums
[07:01] <clearscreen> http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=127596&highlight=acer+black+screen
[07:02] <clearscreen> Then the little howto I wrote above will VERY likely work. (it worked for my Acer 5024WLMi which is very alike)
[07:02] <clearscreen> I have an 5023WLMI and they are the same except for mine has more ram :P
[07:02] <gnomefreak> twibbler: i would suggest checking with motorola on that one or join #ubuntu-offtopic maybe they can help
[07:03] <twibbler> gnomefreak: thank you
[07:03] <jjjjjjj> I've downloaded java from Sun (.bin file) but am having problems installing.  what am i to do with a .bin file?  tia

[07:05] <clearscreen> it worked fangorious :) just letting u know :)
[07:05] <fangorious> pianoboy3333: well, you can look up bug 31655 (which was for my problem) and it has links to two other similar problems, with several options

[07:05] <fangorious> clearscreen: if only all problems here were that simple
[07:05] <clearscreen> true :P
[07:07] <gnomefreak> variable: have you tried installing some of the plug-ins for sound?
[07:08] <azurehuesofblue> Is it ok to ask newbie questions here?
[07:08] <gnomefreak> azurehuesofblue: yes
[07:08] <pianoboy3333> fangorious: that monitor line should read: Option "MonitorLayout" "LVDS"
[07:09] <azurehuesofblue> right on, I installed ubuntu and am using it, during the install it never asked me for a root password or anything, only the user account.  How do I log on as root or su?
[07:09] <cmpalmer> !root
[07:09] <fangorious> pianoboy3333: isn't that what i said?
[07:09] <ubotu> By default, the root password is locked in Ubuntu. Look at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/RootSudo for all information.
[07:09] <Extreme_Unction> sudo passwd
[07:09] <pianoboy3333> fangorious: just checking...
[07:09] <l00p> sudo passwd
[07:09] <azurehuesofblue> !root w/ no pass?

[07:09] <johndarkhorse> ubotu: tell azurehuesofblue about root
[07:09] <johndarkhorse> azurehuesofblue: read the info the bot just sent you
[07:09] <dooglus> azurehuesofblue: root's password is *locked*, not *empty*
[07:09] <azurehuesofblue> ok
[07:10] <cmpalmer> :)
[07:10] <variable> gnomefreak, what plugins?
[07:10] <Psi-Jack> Hey, does anyone here use a DNS server that uses mysql-based zone lookups?
[07:10] <azurehuesofblue> i'll read the wiki, thanks.
[07:10] <variable> Psi-Jack, yes
[07:10] <variable> Psi-Jack, mydns
[07:10] <variable> it is an awesome program
[07:10] <Psi-Jack> variable: MyDNS, eh? Does mydns have it's own resolver yet?
[07:10] <Stormx2> time to put more RAM in this baby :D
[07:11] <variable> Psi-Jack, what do you mean?
[07:11] <Stormx2> guys what is a quick command line way to check how much ram is currently in here?
[07:11] <rem_> hey, anyone knows how it works when scp breaks in the middle of a transfer ? I wanted to rsync the rest, but cant find the file .. ? is there a temp folder where it goes to .. ?
[07:11] <variable> gnomefreak, i searched for firefox sound, and found nothing
[07:11] <Psi-Jack> variable: Heh. I mean, can it resolve non-local queries, without the use of another resolver to query the DNS rootservers?
[07:11] <Stormx2> variable: Whats wrong with the sound?
[07:11] <rem_> hey, anyone knows how it works when scp breaks in the middle of a transfer ? I wanted to rsync the rest, but cant find the file .. ? is there a temp folder where it goes to .. ?
[07:11] <evilsmevil> hi all
[07:11] <variable> Psi-Jack, no, it is never going to, you can just install dnscache over it, that is what the recommend
[07:11] <Stormx2> g2gputRAMinPC
[07:12] <fangorious> Stormx2: mem or free
[07:12] <variable> Stormx2, i dont have sound in firefox
[07:12] <evilsmevil> Gnome is now running half gnome and half KDE how can i get rid of the kde bit?
[07:12] <Extreme_Unction> Half gnome and half kde?
[07:12] <Extreme_Unction> ..
[07:12] <evilsmevil> yeah i know its weird
[07:12] <Psi-Jack> variable: dnscache, eh? Will mydns query a resolver on it's own?
[07:12] <dooglus> evilsmevil: just stop running any Qt apps
[07:12] <evilsmevil> so ill choose a gnome session and ill get the gnome-pannel

[07:14] <oskude> breezy has printing broke
[07:14] <Psi-Jack> variable: Yeah. heh. That's the problem. :p Having to run so many servers just for DNS. It'd be better to simply run Bind with DLZ, than to go with the whole 4 servers just for 2 authorative/caching servers.
[07:14] <Kr4t05> Ok
[07:14] <Kr4t05> So
[07:14] <one> can anyone tell me what to tell the terminal to get my soundcard to stick next time i log in?

[07:15] <variable> it does?
[07:15] <thenuke> equador: but why you want to know
[07:15] <oskude> and where do i find openoffice printer admin ? (cant even add menus myself, doh)
[07:15] <Psi-Jack> variable: Using SDB or DLZ, yes.
[07:15] <equador> then are all other xchat icons
[07:15] <variable> Psi-Jack, never heard of it
[07:15] <enz0_> Ok, I got gnome-control-center installed on my Kubuntu box but under Preferred Applications, I've only got web browser, email client and X Term options.  How do I tell evo which apps to use for certain file types?

[07:16] <nitrosport_5> sorry i need major help
[07:16] <Psi-Jack> nitrosport_5: Time to leave. Now that you've pissed everyone off.
[07:16] <dooglus> nitrosport_5: you need to "sudo apt-get install build-essential"
[07:16] <fangorious> nitrosport_5: apt-get install build-essential maybe
[07:16] <variable> gnomefreak, is there some other plugin i need specifically for firefox to play sound?
[07:16] <variable> Psi-Jack, do you use bind with pgsql?
[07:16] <gnomefreak> variable: what type of file is it?
[07:16] <oskude> hmm, maybe i need to downgrade to hoary, doh...
[07:16] <dooglus> nitrosport_5: or, better still: "sudo apt-get install cvs", to install the binary rather than building from source at all
[07:17] <variable> gnomefreak, any file, beit website, flash, avi anything = no sound
[07:17] <Psi-Jack> variable: Not yet. I'm looking to see if there's even a deb package for bind9 and dlz. :)
[07:17] <bina> nitrosport_5 - try apt-get install gcc i think
[07:17] <thenuke> equador: http://www.xchat.org/faq/  there is about icons
[07:17] <nitrosport_5> thanks guys
[07:17] <naddar> hey how can i use su?
[07:17] <evilsmevil> when i run ps -e i have some processes called kthread and khelper, also khub are these kde processes?
[07:17] <mwe> can you install ubuntu from a debian netinstall by changing sources.list?
[07:17] <cmpalmer> naddar: use sudo instead
[07:17] <naddar> if i like to go into my firewall its acces denyed even with sudo
[07:17] <dooglus> naddar: it's "su username", followed by the password
[07:17] <bina> nitrosport_5: hehe sorry, I didnt realise there had already been so many replies :)
[07:17] <gnomefreak> mwe: not recommended at all
[07:18] <AstralJava> oskude: I probably came in in a middle of a conversation, but what seems to be the problem?
[07:18] <dooglus> gnomefreak: why not?
[07:18] <wastrel> we hates it
[07:18] <dooglus> gnomefreak: I always install ubuntu from a debian bootstrap
[07:18] <gnomefreak> dooglus: its not recommended mixing packages
[07:18] <oskude> AstralJava, i cant print with openoffice
[07:18] <Psi-Jack> variable: Curious. Does your bind server query mydns for zones before recursing externally?
[07:18] <dooglus> gnomefreak: I see
[07:18] <nitrosport_5> can someone tell me why my teminal wont accept the su
[07:18] <variable> Psi-Jack, no
[07:18] <gnomefreak> they have a net install for ubuntu
[07:18] <oskude> AstralJava, on hoary my printer was automaticly found and installed
[07:18] <AstralJava> oskude: Ahh.... that. I have trouble printing with OO.o2 too.
[07:18] <PuMpErNiCkLe> ubotu tell nitrosport_5 about sudo
[07:18] <oskude> AstralJava, ok :)
[07:19] <mwe> gnomefreak: my laptop doesn't have a floppy or cd drive but it can do a netboot :|
[07:19] <dooglus> nitrosport_5: are you trying to su as root?  if so it won't work because you don't have a root password.  you can set a root password, or use "sudo" instead.
[07:19] <Psi-Jack> variable: So, you basically have 4 nameservers, 2 of which are authorative to your own zones, and they don't have /any/ communication with each other?
[07:19] <variable> gnomefreak, i is this a firefox problem, ubuntu problem, or elsewhere?
[07:19] <AstralJava> oskude: Can CUPS still find the printer?
[07:19] <gnomefreak> mwe: ubuntu has a netboot iso
[07:19] <oskude> anyone know how the openoffice printer admin is called ?
[07:19] <nitrosport_5> where do i set a root password?
[07:19] <oskude> on the gnome printer dings its installd and test page works
[07:19] <gnomefreak> variable: not sure is mplayer your default player for ff
[07:19] <variable> Psi-Jack, lol, ya, well i only have 2 right now, i know im not "safe" but ill get 2 more soon enough
[07:19] <dooglus> nitrosport_5: why not just use "sudo" instead?
[07:19] <variable> gnomefreak, well outside of firefox, mplayer works fine
[07:19] <nitrosport_5> cause i am a noob to sudo and i understand su to some extent
[07:20] <Psi-Jack> variable: That's bad. /VERY/ bad.
[07:20] <Extreme_Unction> The setup program seems to have failed on x86/glibc-2.1
[07:20] <gnomefreak> variable: ok is your default player for ff mplayer?
[07:20] <mwe> gnomefreak: it does?
[07:20] <variable> Psi-Jack, which part, the 2 dns or the non-communicado?
[07:20] <dooglus> nitrosport_5: if you're a noob then don't set the root password, it's dangerous.
[07:20] <gnomefreak> mwe: yes ofcourse it does :)
[07:20] <variable> gnomefreak, how would i check?
[07:20] <nitrosport_5> ok
[07:20] <gnomefreak> ubotu tell mwe about install
[07:20] <oskude> im VERY sad that breezy didnt find my printer, as hoary did. ...
[07:20] <Extreme_Unction> !glibc
[07:20] <ubotu> Extreme_Unction: Did you get hit by a windmill? Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/
[07:20] <gnomefreak> variable: in ff settings somewhere
[07:20] <dooglus> nitrosport_5: just "sudo gedit" or "sudo vi file" or "sudo <whatever you want to do as root>"
[07:21] <Psi-Jack> variable: The non-communicado. Making your libc resolver try to figure out DNS host to use for what lookup is the bad part.
[07:21] <_mindspin> ! build-essentials
[07:21] <ubotu> parse error: Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/, _mindspin
[07:21] <gnomefreak> ubotu tell _mindspin about build-essential
[07:21] <nitrosport_5> what are all the things i can do as root
[07:21] <_mindspin> hehe
[07:21] <gnomefreak> nitrosport_5: what are you looking to do?
[07:21] <wastrel> it's called build-essential
[07:22] <bina> nitrosport_5: root can do anything i believe
[07:22] <variable> Psi-Jack, why, the bind just queries something and then it find the mydns through that, wastefull but not terrible
[07:22] <oskude> fyi: openoffice printer admin is called "oopadmin2"
[07:22] <_mindspin> ! build-essential
[07:22] <nitrosport_5> i am trying to run glxgears to see if my vid card has the 3d driver
[07:22] <ubotu> [build-essential]  a meta package for software building see !gcc for more info
[07:22] <kuja> Anyone know of an SQLite UI like sqlitecc, except one that actually builds with ease? :P
[07:22] <AstralJava> oskude: If test page printing works, then CUPS can find the printer, and thus the problem is at OO.o2's end. Does it show the correct printer if you choose File | Printer settings... menu?
[07:22] <oskude> lol, now the printer is there..
[07:22] <Extreme_Unction> Can anyone help me? Upon trying to install Unreal Tournament 2004 I get this error:
[07:22] <Extreme_Unction> The setup program seems to have failed on x86/glibc-2.1
[07:22] <Extreme_Unction> Disk reading problem, or I don't have glibc-2.1?
[07:22] <wastrel> Extreme_Unction:  do you know how to check if you have glibc-2.1?
[07:22] <oskude> AstralJava, ok, oopadmin2 test page works...
[07:23] <Extreme_Unction> No
[07:23] <Belboz99> I need to allow my normal user access to a USB scanner, any ideas?
[07:23] <Extreme_Unction> How?
[07:23] <gnomefreak> locate
[07:23] <gnomefreak> or apt-cache policy
[07:23] <AstralJava> oskude: What about one of your documents?
[07:23] <azurehuesofblue> what is the dos equivelant of "dir /w" in bash?
[07:23] <variable> gnomefreak, i dont see a setting, but id assume it is since mplayer pops up for any media files that arent flash
[07:23] <wastrel> Extreme_Unction:  locate glibc
[07:23] <oskude> AstralJava, sec, testing... (still printing test page)
[07:23] <azurehuesofblue> or um bash equevelent.
[07:23] <PuMpErNiCkLe> azurehuesofblue: What does it do, in dos?
[07:23] <kuja> /usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lwx_gtk2u_stc-2.4
[07:23] <kuja>  # What's it saying it can't find?
[07:23] <Extreme_Unction> It found two.
[07:24] <Extreme_Unction> glibc2.4 and glibc21.m4
[07:24] <Extreme_Unction> I mean, glibc2.m4
[07:24] <azurehuesofblue> makes all the files visable in a dir, you know, instead of it only letting you see the end of the alphabet.
[07:24] <Belboz99> azurehusofblue, ls does most dir-like commands
[07:24] <gnomefreak> Extreme_Unction: run apt-cache policy glib see if its installed
[07:24] <PuMpErNiCkLe> azurehuesofblue: ls -a is probably what you're looking for
[07:24] <Belboz99> ls -l lists long, ls -a lists all (including "hidden")
[07:24] <Extreme_Unction> W: Unable to locate package glib
[07:25] <wastrel> gnomefreak:  that won't work unless glib is a package
[07:25] <oskude> AstralJava, yep. ooo2 printing works now....
[07:25] <azurehuesofblue> ok thanks, should work!
[07:25] <holycow> what is the name of the package that does the little notify of updates in the panel thingy?
[07:25] <gnomefreak> variable: im not sure it seems you have everything you would need but really depends on the file itsself there are seprate libs for mp3s and alot of win files
[07:25] <AstralJava> oskude: So then, it only needed for you to complain a little bit. :)
[07:25] <gnomefreak> wastrel: glib is a package no?
[07:25] <variable> gnomefreak, but all the same files work if i dl them and play them like that
[07:25] <gnomefreak> and you should put the version your looking for
[07:25] <variable> gnomefreak, so doesnt it have to be in firefox
[07:25] <oskude> AstralJava, and i had to install it myself (bad breezy) :)
[07:26] <wastrel> gnomefreak:  it would appear not.   you have to have the full correct package name for policy
[07:26] <evilsmevil> when i start gnome i get a kde interface. the gnome panels are still there but the scroll bars and dialogs are all kde style, anyone know how to fix it?
[07:26] <AstralJava> oskude: Right. :)
[07:26] <oskude> i thought updates a supposed to mae things better ;)
[07:26] <variable> gnomefreak, me? its 1.0.7 firefox
[07:26] <gnomefreak> wastrel: i was gonna use .... after it but wouldnt know if he knew what to do
[07:27] <Extreme_Unction> W: Unable to locate package glibc-2.1 .. All the same anyway
[07:27] <AstralJava> oskude: Well, generally speaking.... :)
[07:27] <wastrel> as far as i can tell there's only libglib2.0-0  libglib1.2   in breezy
[07:27] <gnomefreak> variable: no i dont know the answer to your issue it seems you have everything you need for basic files and if the file works under download nad not in ff i would try #firefox
[07:28] <variable> ok thanks
[07:28] <radar1976> I need some help with vsftpd
[07:28] <Extreme_Unction> Do you know anywhere where I can get glibc2.1?
[07:28] <succubus__> what's a good app for burning cd's? Serpentine says the files i want to burn aren't supported but they are all MP3
[07:29] <radar1976> I still can not get any user accounts to login other then the admin account that I created at the time of install
[07:29] <gnomefreak> Extreme_Unction: did you look in synaptic?
[07:29] <gnomefreak> succubus__: k3b
[07:29] <Extreme_Unction> YYes
[07:29] <gnomefreak> let me see what version dapper has hold please

[07:34] <gl0be> How do I install the windows video card drivers for my laptop?
[07:34] <gnomefreak> frank23: sudo apt-get remove --purge ubuntu-desktop will get rid of the ubuntu-desktop and its conf files but for the packages you will need to uninstall them each
[07:34] <gnomefreak> gl0be: through windows?
[07:34] <frank23> gnomefreak: aptitude is supposed to be able to get rid of dependancies too I think
[07:34] <gnomefreak> frank23: sudo aptitude remove
[07:35] <gl0be> gnomefreak: ooh...no.  Into ubuntu.  I seem to remember that there is a piece of software that will act as a wrapper
[07:35] <root404> My sound isn't working! It used to work before...
[07:35] <frank23> gnomefreak: well that just removes one package
[07:35] <gnomefreak> i dont htink aptitude will get rid of depends that it didnt install and ther eis no purge command for it
[07:35] <azurehuesofblue> lol, I promise to be less annoying in 7 days... but... wheres the dang recycle bin in gnome! :)
[07:35] <gnomefreak> gl0be: your trying to install the win drivers for linux?
[07:35] <gnomefreak> frank23: i know thats why i gave you the apt-get command
[07:36] <gl0be> gnomefreak: yes.  The linux vid drivers for the Intel chipset I have in my laptop dont work > 800.600
[07:36] <gnomefreak> ubuntu-desktop and ubuntu-desktop* are not the same
[07:36] <root404> anyone?
[07:36] <gnomefreak> gl0be: ubuntu doesnt have those drivers? i could have sworn i saw people saying they had it
[07:36] <GigaClon> is esd running?
[07:36] <amyn> gnomefreak,  i am having problems. when i click on users and group. A new window pops up and then closes itself. i need to change password of my userid and su
[07:36] <gnomefreak> gl0be: im not sure if cedega will do that but try
[07:37] <gnomefreak> amyn: if you changed your hostname that is the reason you are having that issue
[07:37] <gl0be> gnomefreak: yes, ubuntu has drivers.  But not drivers to do anything with my screen rez but 800x600... it goes to 1024.
[07:37] <zarephath> gnomefreak: Ok then :)
[07:37] <oskude> why does double-click on window title maximize the windiow, when theres allso a button for it...
[07:37] <rob_p> azurehuesofblue:  Look in ~/.Trash
[07:37] <gnomefreak> ubotu tell gl0be about fixres
[07:38] <wastrel> oskude:  because that's what it does in windows
[07:38] <root404> gnomefreak, want to help me out?
[07:38] <jeang> gl0be - try 855resolution or 915resolution for intel graphics
[07:38] <gnomefreak> johndarkhorse: yeah i knew that but ty
[07:38] <oskude> wastrel, lol
[07:38] <amyn> gnomefreak, yes i changed the hostname. what shall i do now ?? how do i fixed it ?
[07:38] <gl0be> jeang: where can I get those...I am on the 855 chipset
[07:38] <gnomefreak> amyn: not sure but alot of people have done that too
[07:38] <azurehuesofblue> k thanks rob_p
[07:38] <jeang> gl0be - 855resolution is in synaptic
[07:39] <gnomefreak> root404: i will not answer that until i see a problem
[07:39] <gl0be> jeang: thanks I will look in there
[07:39] <root404> My sound isn't working, it used to work before though.

[07:39] <gnomefreak> root404: i cant help with sound
[07:39] <ftp3> i need a custom ubuntu distro created.. are there any websites that tell how to do this?
[07:39] <gnomefreak> amyn: i dont use su (way are you using su)
[07:39] <jeang> gl0be - once you have them installed, google the ubuntu users list on how to set it up otherwise give a shout
[07:40] <oskude> ftp3, your better of looking for debian distro x (as ubuntu is based on debian)
[07:41] <gl0be> jeang: tx
[07:41] <ftp3> oskude, thank you
[07:41] <Stormx2> Yay I have 512mb more RAM :D

[07:42] <edward1> root404:  is sound muted?
[07:42] <gnomefreak> but yes those fps readings
[07:42] <edward1> gnomefreak: run it in a terminal
[07:42] <johndarkhorse> edward1: gnomefreak: there is a esoteric command suffix to get it to display framerates
[07:43] <root404> edward0, I don't think do, where do I check?
[07:43] <wicked_> hows 6.04 going
[07:43] <gl0be> jeang: okay.  (this always seems to happen to me....) when I apt-get the 855resolution pkg (after I updated) it says it cant find it.
[07:43] <wastrel> !glxgears
[07:43] <ubotu> To display the FPS type "glxgears -iacknowledgethatthistoolisnotabenchmark"

[07:51] <Wammy|> ill try some other stuff
[07:51] <Wammy|> heh
[07:51] <root404> edward0, like what\
[07:52] <gnomefreak> lspci should give you output even if the drivers are not installed
[07:52] <zarephath> Ummm..I thought that rhythmbox or one of the other players automatically searched cddb for album track information? If not what can I use to get the music cd information?
[07:52] <edward1> root404: what doesn't have sound? ... maybe esd
[07:52] <Wammy|> gnomefreak, i know :/
[07:52] <root404> edward0, esd?
[07:52] <jeang> gl0be - download 915resolution.deb from http://www.freshnet.org/debian/hoary/ - does the same job as 855res
[07:52] <bluescreen> Ok I have both ndiswrappermodules and ndiswrapper as .deb files and they cant install without eachother
[07:52] <edward1> root404: maybe gnome sounds were turned off?
[07:52] <root404> Nothing has sound at all anywhere :\
[07:52] <Howitzer> Hi
[07:52] <gnomefreak> Wammy|: maybe either a hardware issue or try filing a bug see what they say
[07:52] <bluescreen> how do I "link" them together?
[07:53] <Howitzer> How can i set the 'gnome-settings-daemon' to run on startup?
[07:53] <bluescreen> is there like something: dpkg --install file.deb --dependency=modules.deb
[07:53] <bluescreen> ?
[07:53] <root404> edward0, Nothing has sound anywhere
[07:53] <Howitzer> Because without it, fluxbox doesn't use my gnome DPI settings
[07:53] <gl0be> jeang: yea...still no 855resolution
[07:54] <jeang> gl0be - see above, you can d/l 915resolution from http://www.freshnet.org/debian/hoary/ it does the same job as 855 res
[07:56] <Howitzer> in what gnomefreak ?
[07:56] <gl0be> jeang: thanks
[07:56] <root404> edward0, I guess I do have sound, but no XChat doesn't :(

[08:01] <Howitzer> go hog suse or something
[08:02] <pder> UBUNTU ARE NOT WORK ON COMPUTER
[08:02] <gnomefreak> Howitzer: what numbers should i be looking at the 10000 or the 2000
[08:02] <oskude> pder, hmm, can't compute...
[08:02] <Howitzer> well
[08:02] <gnomefreak> pder: i will ask you again to turn off the caps lock key please
[08:02] <Howitzer> around 5000
[08:02] <pder> gnomefreak: sorry about that
[08:02] <Howitzer> omfg
[08:02] <_jason> pder: ubuntu isn't for everyone, just use something else if you don't like it
[08:02] <Howitzer> you can make a normal sentence
[08:02] <Howitzer> good boy!
[08:03] <_jason> Howitzer: no need for that either
[08:03] <papi_> elo ppl :P
[08:03] <gnomefreak> Howitzer: i see something like 5996 frames in 5.0 seconds = 1199.161 FPS and it goes up
[08:03] <Amaranth> hey papi_, apokryphos
[08:03] <Howitzer> _jason, :( let me have fun
[08:04] <Howitzer> gnomefreak, it changes on wether(sp?) it's in focus or not
[08:04] <papi_> is this ubuntu linux irc :> ?
[08:04] <oskude> gnomefreak, yeah, maybe you get a highscore :)
[08:04] <gnomefreak> lol oskude
[08:04] <gnomefreak> it has to be because i cant install nvidia settings :(
[08:04] <apokryphos> hi Amaranth, how's it going?
[08:04] <gnomefreak> nvidia-settings
[08:05] <Amaranth> apokryphos: I just burned and labeled 100 CDs. With one computer. :/
[08:05] <edward1> gnomefreak: why can't you install it?
[08:05] <gl0be> jeang: is that website the only place to dl that library?  All of their deb files are empty.
[08:05] <Eidan> hi all
[08:05] <gnomefreak> edward1: it wont let me install both nvidia-settings and nvidia-glx one removes the other
[08:05] <DistroWatch> anyone running " systrace " ?
[08:06] <Howitzer> gnomefreak, impossible
[08:06] <apokryphos> Amaranth: yeouch, that must've taken some time. I did a similar thing once for a close family-friend's wedding (they wanted to give out the wedding soundtrack to everyone that came). Tedious business 8)
[08:06] <papi_> exit
[08:06] <gnomefreak> Howitzer: what is?
[08:06] <gnomefreak> i tried it all different ways
[08:06] <Howitzer> nvidia-settings works with nvidia-glx
[08:06] <gnomefreak> one depends on other but yet it wants to remove one to install other
[08:06] <Howitzer> Have you tried the official drivers?
[08:07] <Howitzer> i have those
[08:07] <Howitzer> it's not hard
[08:07] <wastrel> glxinfo | grep direct
[08:07] <gnomefreak> Howitzer: no i tried apt-get
[08:07] <progrock> I just installed xubuntu... is there an easy way to install all the system administrative apps hat gnome has by default (like user management, etc)
[08:07] <oskude> well, on debian apt-get remove exim4 wants to remove myslq :)
[08:07] <Eidan> someone can help me installing XGl pleae?
[08:07] <jeang> gl0be - gimme a mo!
[08:07] <oskude> *mysql
[08:07] <Eidan> *please
[08:07] <Nogimics> are some of the update servers down?

[08:07] <gl0be> I am having trouble downloading packages with apt-get/synaptic .  The packages can never be found (but I have all the universe/multiverse repositories enabled) does anybody have any hints on how to fix this
[08:07] <johndarkhorse> Eidan: join #ubuntu+1
[08:07] <Eidan> ok
[08:08] <oskude> cool, is that xgl the 3d desktop thing ?

[08:08] <Howitzer> do the official ones
[08:08] <pder> i am having trouble with my ubuntu machine locking up when attempting to access a joystick device.  has anyone experienced this?
[08:08] <Nogimics> are some of the update servers down?
[08:08] <gnomefreak> Howitzer: deb form?
[08:08] <Eidan> i'm stuck at the terminal...
[08:08] <gnomefreak> or am i compiling?
[08:08] <{-Sturm-}> hi, i have windows and linux installed in dual boot, i had mandriva installed on another hard drive but i formated over it with ubuntu and installed everything, however when i reboot i can't access ubuntu from grub, there's only the old version of mandriva i overwrote... how can i fix this?
[08:10] <skazi> col : here?
[08:10] <pder> sturm, you should be able to use the console within grub to point the the kernel and initrd image in your ubuntu partition then run boot
[08:11] <{-Sturm-}> pder: hmm k... im not sure how to do that however :| how can i know the name if my initrd image of the ubuntu partition?
[08:11] <oskude> sturm, didnt you format the partition and overwrite the grub in mbr ?
[08:11] <{-Sturm-}> osk: yeah
[08:12] <pder> oskude: i think the problem is he has an old menu.lst entry that is pointing to the mandriva kernel
[08:12] <{-Sturm-}> pder: yeah i think its something lik ethat
[08:12] <oskude> sturm, then i cant understand how you have "old" grub (settings) in there
[08:12] <jeang> gl0be - try http://packages.debian.org/unstable/x11/915resolution
[08:13] <{-Sturm-}> neither do i, but all i have hte option to choose is the old mandriva linux i had of installed, don'T see ubuntu nowhere
[08:13] <oskude> sturm, do you have a own partition for /boot ?
[08:13] <pder> sturm what is your grub root partition?
[08:13] <{-Sturm-}> hmm im not sure...how can i find out?
[08:14] <oskude> im just wondering how you can have old settings if you formatted all and installed grub in mbr
[08:14] <oskude> sturm, i think you made something wrong, is your windows still there ? :)
[08:14] <{-Sturm-}> i didn'T format all, i formated the hard drive that contained the old linux i had
[08:14] <{-Sturm-}> oskude: yeah windows still works fine
[08:15] <oskude> sturm, you mean partition..
[08:15] <{-Sturm-}> well the partition on the whole hard drive, i have 4 hard drives installed, 3 of them used in windows, 1 of them for linux
[08:15] <{-Sturm-}> i only had 1 partition on that hard drive and it was for linux
[08:15] <oskude> sturm, ok, that explains a lot
[08:16] <gl0be> jeang: now that looks like a package file with something in it ;-)
[08:16] <oskude> sturm you have to replace the mbr in hda
[08:16] <{-Sturm-}> hmmmmmmmm ya know what, actually i just restarted and tried to boot with failsafe, and now it seems to be installing ubuntu?
[08:16] <oskude> sturm your still having the old grub in the "master" HDs mbr
[08:16] <{-Sturm-}> hmm k, that would make sense
[08:16] <mirko> ciao
[08:16] <azurehuesofblue> how do I install a .run file?
[08:17] <pder> oskude: his grub configuration is not in the mbr
[08:17] <pder> oskude: it is in menu.lst which is on one of his partitions
[08:17] <oskude> pder, i know menu.lst is in /boot/grum/menu.lst
[08:17] <gl0be> jeang: okay.  maybe not. or maybe I dont know what I am doing. how do I run/compile this "program"?
[08:17] <oskude> but his old (mandriva) grub is still in hda's mbr
[08:17] <pder> oskude: he doesnt need to overwrite the mbr
[08:18] <oskude> pder, if mandirva has the same version as ubuntu...
[08:18] <{-Sturm-}> :|
[08:18] <{-Sturm-}> and mandriva doesn'T have the same kernel version as ubuntu, its an old kernel version
[08:18] <gl0be> jeang: n/m.  the "debina binary" file is just a text with "2.0" in it
[08:18] <zarephath> Uhh..is there something about restricted formats that won't let me hear playback in cd player from my music cd? It plays it...no sound...
[08:19] <oskude> well, my advise is to install "ubuntus grub" in hda mbr (but you may help him to do that from grub prompt)
[08:19] <jbroome> zarephath: you sure the cable from the cdrom to the soundcard is hooked up?
[08:19] <equador> what i must change ? now after 10s grub load linux, i want after 10s windows default ?
[08:19] <gl0be> I am having trouble downloading packages with apt-get/synaptic .  The packages can never be found (but I have all the universe/multiverse repositories enabled) does anybody have any hints on how to fix this
[08:19] <{-Sturm-}> osku: but that's what i did already...when ubuntu asked me to install grub on the mbr i said yes
[08:20] <zarephath> jbroome: Yep this is PPC and not PC
[08:20] <oskude> sturm, kernel version doesnt "interest" grub
[08:20] <equador> what i must change ? now after 10s grub load linux, i want after 10s windows default ?
[08:20] <oskude> sturm but not in HDA mbr i assume ?
[08:20] <jeang> gl0be - in the directory where you saved the file inside terminal window     sudo dpkg -i 915resolution???.deb
[08:20] <{-Sturm-}> well anyway, somehow i think it seems to be installing right now, after i selected the "failsafe" option in the grub menu
[08:20] <{-Sturm-}> so maybe ill be ok after all
[08:20] <oskude> sturm pc's read only the mbr from hda
[08:21] <{-Sturm-}> k
[08:21] <gnomefreak> equador: the starter guide in your help icon will walk you throught hat i think its under tips&tricks
[08:21] <gnomefreak> s/throught/through
[08:21] <oskude> sturm you can say all thats writtten in menu.lst manually on the grub prompt
[08:21] <equador> i dont find :/
[08:22] <gnomefreak> equador: are you using breezy?
[08:22] <oskude> strum so aslong you get grub, you can run linux from "anywhere"
[08:22] <{-Sturm-}> k
[08:22] <equador> gnomefreak, yes :)
[08:22] <gnomefreak> equador: with gnome?
[08:22] <equador> yes with gnome
[08:23] <gnomefreak> equador: at the top of the screen you will see a life perserver thingy white and red in there you will find the starter guide
[08:23] <{-Sturm-}> oskude: now, if the installation goes ok with ubuntu as its going right now, i should be ok and be able to modify the grub loader menu once im in right?
[08:23] <john_jimmy> I cannot get the firefox1.0.7 to play sound on ubuntu breeezy 5.10
[08:23] <john_jimmy> Any help would be appreciated
[08:24] <cmpalmer> john_jimmy: what kind of file?
[08:24] <oskude> sturm if the grum in hda's mbr is pointing to the ubuntus menu.lst
[08:24] <oskude> *grub
[08:24] <john_jimmy> a flash
[08:24] <john_jimmy> file
[08:24] <gnomefreak> !flash
[08:24] <ubotu> somebody said flash was installation & troublshooting is covered in https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RestrictedFormats
[08:24] <{-Sturm-}> ahh k
[08:24] <Kr4t05> !apache
[08:24] <ubotu> from memory, apache is https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ApacheMySQLPHP
[08:24] <oskude> sturm, i would reinstall grub in hda mbr
[08:24] <cmpalmer> john_jimmy: what ubotu said
[08:25] <{-Sturm-}> ok....so how would i go about doing that? is it possible to do it directly from the ubuntu install cd?
[08:25] <john_jimmy> cmpalmer I installed
[08:25] <john_jimmy> cmpalmer Flash player
[08:25] <john_jimmy> But still
[08:25] <oskude> sturm, grub-install /dev/hda (but im not sure)
[08:25] <oskude> !grub
[08:25] <ubotu> http://wiki.ubuntu.com/GrubHowto or https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows or troubleshooting grub: http://www.gnu.org/software/grub/manual/grub.html#Troubleshooting
[08:25] <{-Sturm-}> k
[08:25] <cmpalmer> john_jimmy: you can play other sources of sound without problems?
[08:26] <john_jimmy> cmpalmer, yes
[08:26] <oskude> sturm or if you have scsi, its propably /dev/sda
[08:26] <john_jimmy> cpalmer it plays everything well
[08:26] <cmpalmer> john_jimmy: and you've restarted firefox since installing flash, yes?
[08:27] <john_jimmy> cmplaer ...I guess ..I did...YES
[08:27] <{-Sturm-}> yeah the main hard drive is installed as scsi
[08:27] <gnomefreak> john_jimmy: close all firefox windows and reopen ff see if it works thean
[08:27] <gnomefreak> than
[08:28] <john_jimmy> cmpalmer
[08:28] <john_jimmy> ok
[08:28] <oskude> strum, i never had scsi, but i remember reading that its /dev/sda and so on (but i could be wrong)
[08:28] <cmpalmer> john_jimmy: still no sound after restarting firefox?
[08:28] <{-Sturm-}> k
[08:29] <gnomefreak> psssssst there was a troubleshooting section in that wiki btw
[08:29] <oskude> i just know that my flash sticks come as /dev/sd* :)
[08:29] <john_jimmy> cmpalmer, wait ..
[08:30] <john_jimmy> cmpalmer thanks
[08:30] <john_jimmy> I got it now
[08:30] <gnomefreak> :)
[08:30] <cmpalmer> john_jimmy: np
[08:30] <mivecz> I Want  help pls
[08:30] <gnomefreak> !helpme
[08:30] <ubotu> If you don't actually ask a question, we can not actually help you.
[08:30] <gl0be> jeang: whew.  thankyou for your help. I think I am getting somewhere now.  I can get a list of my video modes, but now what do I have to do with that ?
[08:30] <oskude> hmm, now im interested, if you have scsi and ide drivers, do you have /dev/hda and /dev/sda ?
[08:30] <{-Sturm-}> hmmm
[08:31] <gnomefreak> oskude: no they will not be same hard drive
[08:31] <{-Sturm-}> well actually its not a scsi disk, but a sata one, but its installed as a scsi i think or recognized as so anyway...
[08:31] <gnomefreak> you would have one hd and one sd
[08:31] <oskude> and witch one will be read first ? ( i assume bios knows that=
[08:31] <salah_> Hi, When I run gmplayer Than it gives this msg-The fontconfig option can't be used in a config file.
[08:31] <salah_> Error parsing option fontconfig=yes at line 11
[08:31] <salah_> Warning unknown option subfont-text-scale at line 13
[08:31] <salah_> What I shd do?
[08:31] <oskude> sturm, ok, never had sata neither :)
[08:31] <gnomefreak> oskude: whatever one is set as master
[08:31] <mivecz> i iwant  to instal  xfce4  and  i  find  a  site for  xfce themes   http://xfce-look.org so i  join i  try to   understand  what is  GTK I x GTK 2 x
[08:31] <cmpalmer> salah_: install mplayers fonts
[08:32] <jeang> gl0be - ok, if you can see a mode that you system will display, you need to edit /etc/init.d/bootmisc.sh
[08:32] <zarephath> They will have different device nodes for the devices...I presume Ubuntu uses udev..so at bootime udev looks at hardware and assigns a node it thinks should go to that node name...
[08:32] <{-Sturm-}> i have one of them little fast raptor drives, really nice :)
[08:32] <mivecz> so  WHAT IS  gtk i x
[08:32] <salah_> I installed
[08:32] <gnomefreak> mivecz: sudo apt-get isntall xubuntu-desktop   that will give youxfce
[08:32] <oskude> so as user (not seeing the hardware) its hard to know which one is "master" hd, hda or sda ?
[08:32] <salah_> so do I need to Install whole part again?
[08:32] <cmpalmer> salah_: you installed the "mplayer-fonts" package?
[08:32] <gnomefreak> mivecz: if you are using breezy or dapper it will be gtk2 by default
[08:33] <oskude> am i glad that i only have ide :)
[08:33] <gnomefreak> oskude: correct
[08:33] <salah_> how canI do that?>
[08:33] <gnomefreak> me too :)
[08:33] <mivecz> i use  gnome
[08:33] <zarephath> oskude: First thing to do is look at dmesg that should tell you what was detected and in most cases the assignment that has been made for a given device...
[08:33] <mivecz> can i  install gtk2 themes?
[08:33] <cmpalmer> salah_: how did you install mplayer?
[08:33] <gnomefreak> mivecz: you said you wanted xfce
[08:33] <{-Sturm-}> oskude: hmm, well i had to change the boot order in the bios
[08:33] <gnomefreak> mivecz: yes you can
[08:33] <SperMite> how do you change the inter ip on ur computer?
[08:33] <jeang> gl0be - at the end of the first section of uncommented text add '915resolution 7d 1280 800 ' without the apostrophes and that is the setting for my laptop, yours will be different
[08:33] <{-Sturm-}> it was a pain in the ass to set all that up to be honest

[08:34] <{-Sturm-}> i have 2 sata drives, 2 IDE
[08:34] <gnomefreak> !xfce
[08:34] <ubotu> from memory, xfce is a lightweight Desktop Environment that uses GTK. to install, "sudo apt-get install xfce4" or "sudo apt-get install xubuntu-desktop". http://www.xfce.org/
[08:34] <jeang> yes reboot is required...
[08:34] <Kr4t05> !apache
[08:34] <ubotu> methinks apache is https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ApacheMySQLPHP
[08:34] <gnomefreak> satas have always been a pain
[08:34] <oskude> sturm, all through motherboard, or do you have extra controller card ?
[08:34] <gl0be> jeang: is 7d the mode?

[08:35] <{-Sturm-}> all through motherboard
[08:35] <{-Sturm-}> its full, i don't think i can add anymore ;)
[08:35] <oskude> sturm, normal is 4 (ide) devices...
[08:35] <jeang> gl0be - no that i mine for my laptop, if you run 915resolution -l itwill give you a list of resolutions your card can do, pick the one you want and use that in bootmisc.sh
[08:35] <{-Sturm-}> well i have 1 cd rom and 1 dvd drive also :)
[08:36] <gl0be> jeang: right, but where you put 7d, is that your MODE number?
[08:36] <jeang> gl0be - yes
[08:36] <cmpalmer> salah_: you have enabled universe, yes?
[08:36] <mivecz> i get  error
[08:36] <SperMite> how do i change the inter ip on my box ??
[08:36] <{-Sturm-}> well the installation failed with the failsafe thing, im reinstalling ubuntu again, gonna reformat for the 3rd time and this time, ill see if i can choose the right place to install grub
[08:36] <harfooz> Is there a way to configure Evolution so that files above, say 50K for instance, are not downloaded automatically?

[08:37] <oskude> sturm, well, back to your problem, you have to find out where ubuntu is pointing your master harddrive and replace the grub in its mbr
[08:37] <gl0be> jeang: okay.  what about editing the /etc/boot/915resolution file? do I have to specify the mode in both places?
[08:37] <mivecz> when i start  to apt-get install  xfce4 i get error  can  anyone help
[08:37] <harfooz> And another Evolution question: Can I config Evolution so that HTML is ignored and only plain text is displayed?
[08:37] <jeang> gl0be - no, i only touched the bootmisc.sh file
[08:37] <{-Sturm-}> k
[08:37] <{-Sturm-}> i will probably see once it asks me if i want ot install grub
[08:38] <gl0be> jeang . okay. brb then...
[08:38] <oskude> sturm as you said you installed the grub in hda's mbr, the "master" hd is propably then /dev/sda
[08:38] <gnomefreak> mivecz: sudo apt-get install xubuntu-desktop
[08:38] <{-Sturm-}> there are two options to partition, i can either erase entire disk, or erase entire disk and use LZVM
[08:38] <{-Sturm-}> what's lvm?
[08:38] <gnomefreak> locale volume manager
[08:38] <johndarkhorse> {-Sturm-}: logical volume mangler
[08:38] <gnomefreak> that too
[08:39] <{-Sturm-}> ok, what does it do
[08:39] <{-Sturm-}> ;)
[08:39] <oskude> sturm i think with lvm you can use many partitions as one
[08:39] <oskude> but dunno, never used...
[08:39] <{-Sturm-}> ahh yeah ok
[08:39] <{-Sturm-}> nm that
[08:39] <mivecz> i get error  again  gnomefreak
[08:39] <gnomefreak> {-Sturm-}: i never installed lvm on purpose
[08:39] <gnomefreak> mivecz: what is the error?
[08:39] <oskude> and theres allso an option to manually partiotion...
[08:39] <gnomefreak> and please dont paste it
[08:39] <mivecz> can i msg  you private?
[08:39] <gnomefreak> yes
[08:40] <Howitzer> gnomefreak, have you tried the nvidia drivers howto i pasted yet?
[08:40] <gnomefreak> Howitzer: yes and i didnt see anything about the nvidia site drivers
[08:41] <gnomefreak> Howitzer: they are gonna have to fix that in dapper anyway so i filed a bug
[08:42] <mivecz> you see  gnomefreak
[08:43] <globe> jeang: can you post that command again (for the bootmisc file)?

[08:46] <Jonnings> Is it possible to have the panel tabs disappear when switching to another workspace?
[08:47] <cmpalmer> Jonnings: what do you mean? you mean get rid of the workspace switcher in the panel?
[08:47] <mivecz> can i paste  you  somewhere because  i am  not register i am unregister
[08:47] <gnomefreak> mivecz: use pastebin
[08:47] <Jonnings> no, when switching to a different workspace the tabs still remain in the panel
[08:47] <gnomefreak> !pastebin
[08:47] <ubotu> somebody said pastebin was a site where you can post large texts and screenshots so you don't flood the channel. You can find it at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org - Install webboard for easy pasting from the gnome taskbar :)
[08:47] <Jonnings> is it possible to avoid that
[08:47] <johndarkhorse> ubotu: tell mivecz about register
[08:48] <oskude> !webboard
[08:48] <ubotu> oskude: I haven't a clue, try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/
[08:48] <oskude> doh
[08:48] <gnomefreak> lol
[08:48] <gnomefreak> oskude: its on the right hand side of pastebin site
[08:48] <{-Sturm-}> oskude: ok, now im there...it asks me "Install the grub boot loader to the master boot record?" usually when i say yes, i reboot and nothing works
[08:48] <gnomefreak> download it dpkg -i it and than add it to your panel
[08:49] <{-Sturm-}> then if i select NO, i can choose where i want it installed
[08:49] <gnomefreak> oskude: or apt-get install it
[08:49] <oskude> sturm, yes cause it install to the MBR of the disk where you installed
[08:49] <oskude> sturm, NOT the "master" harddisk (what bios says as "master")
[08:49] <dstryr> why would be the problem why X wont start?
[08:49] <{-Sturm-}> ok
[08:49] <feza> how I configure samba for linux and look from window?
[08:49] <cmpalmer> Jonnings: not that I know of
[08:49] <gnomefreak> dstryr: what does it say?
[08:50] <{-Sturm-}> damn i should'Ve looked which was master when i rebooted to make sure
[08:50] <oskude> sturm if you KNOW its a "scsi" its propably /dev/sda
[08:50] <cmpalmer> Jonnings: you could get rid of the area in the panel that shows tabs altogether

[09:06] <mivecz> gnomefreak  sources.list is  give me one   user  from here
[09:06] <eri1> I accidentaly overwrote root user in phpmyadmin and locked myself out, any way to fix that?
[09:06] <knight> how do I stop the xserver
[09:06] <knight> how do I stop the x server
[09:06] <globe> jeang - nice word ;-).  thanks for your help.
[09:06] <gnomefreak> mivecz: you have mixed packages so now most things are gonna give you that error when you try to install them
[09:06] <dstryr> /etc/init.d/gdm stop
[09:06] <_jason> knight: /etc/init.d/gdm stop, i think will work
[09:06] <dstryr> or stopx
[09:07] <dstryr> ?
[09:07] <knight> ?
[09:07] <mivecz> i   must  go to     format it
[09:07] <johndarkhorse> dstryr: that is the correct command. it should be prefaced with 'sudo'
[09:07] <mivecz> and  reinstall it
[09:07] <gnomefreak> mivecz: you can do 1 of 2 things right now either reinstall breezy or dist-upgrade to dapper but dapper will and can break
[09:07] <oskude> john_jimmy, hmm, maybe "dpkg-recomfigure gdm" could help....
[09:07] <oskude> john_jimmy, hmm, maybe "dpkg-reconfigure gdm" could help....
[09:07] <eri1> help please - I accidentaly overwrote root user in phpmyadmin and locked myself out, any way to fix that?
[09:07] <mivecz> gnome  how  many time  get to  update
[09:08] <mivecz> i have  adsl  256
[09:08] <john_jimmy> oskude, But I cant even get to a shell there
[09:08] <jeang> globe - see maybe if you can track down a version of 855resolution and try the same with that, dunno, the 855 chipset should work with the 915res file, but maybe not in your case??
[09:08] <gnomefreak> mivecz: about 7 hours to upgrade to dapper depending on connection speed
[09:08] <mivecz> i have  the cd:P)
[09:08] <gnomefreak> maybe 5ish for you than
[09:08] <oskude> john_jimmy, you cant login in ctrl+alt+f1 ?
[09:08] <globe> jeang ... thats what I am thinking
[09:08] <globe> jeang do I have to uninstal the 915 ?
[09:08] <gnomefreak> mivecz: good i recommend installing breezy
[09:08] <mivecz> i download it  allready  last night  but i dont install it  yet
[09:09] <john_jimmy> oskude, I will try .. let me reboot and come back
[09:09] <oskude> john_jimmy, no need to restart..
[09:09] <john_jimmy> oskude, I will boot into the ubuntu that has problem
[09:09] <mivecz> breeze is  5.10 these one?
[09:09] <gnomefreak> yes mivecz ubuntu breezy badger 5.10
[09:09] <john_jimmy> oskude, Yes I installed it on another partition aswell
[09:09] <oskude> john_jimmy, ah ok
[09:09] <mivecz> ok   what  bout  sources list
[09:09] <mivecz> what  i must  do
[09:09] <john_jimmy> oskude, dont ask me why... But i did it :-)
[09:10] <gnomefreak> mivecz: worry about that after you install it
[09:10] <mivecz> ok
[09:10] <oskude> john_jimmy, i got 3linuxes on my notebook too
[09:10] <mivecz> thnks
[09:10] <gnomefreak> yw
[09:10] <mivecz> i  go to install it
[09:10] <mivecz> thnks
[09:10] <jeang> globe - don't think so as bootmisc will call 855resolution, but if you want to you should be able to remove it thru synaptic now as dpkg will insert an entry into synaptic
[09:10] <john_jimmy> oskude, 3 ubuntus?
[09:10] <oskude> i got 20gb hd (an as i dont leech or so) i installed many linuxes to use the space :)
[09:10] <progrock> anyone know what package has the gnome user management?
[09:11] <uein> where can I get the driver snd_hda_intel?
[09:11] <oskude> john_jimmy, 2ubuntu and debian
[09:11] <gnomefreak> 2ubuntu?
[09:11] <globe> jeang: makes sense.  one last question....(thanks again btw) when I installed 915 with the dpkg cmd, it said something about enabling previously disabled something-or-other. could that be why I cant apt-get things?
[09:11] <john_jimmy> oskude,  aha... will be right back
[09:11] <{-Sturm-}> well that crap didn'T work again
[09:11] <john_jimmy> oskude, if i can login throu ctrl alt 1
[09:12] <john_jimmy> oskude,  what do i do
[09:12] <{-Sturm-}> i get a flashing screen with weird colors and lines everywhere
[09:12] <oskude> john_jimmy, hmm
[09:12] <john_jimmy> oskude, just sudo apt-get clean
[09:12] <oskude> john_jimmy, try "sudo apt-get clean" :)
[09:12] <john_jimmy> oskude, or should i reconfig gdm
[09:12] <oskude> john_jimmy, you could try allso that
[09:12] <jeang> globe - no, it is merely to inform you that it is installing some dependencies you did not explicitly ask for.
[09:12] <john_jimmy> oskude, Okay thanks ..will be back
[09:12] <jeang> globe - get 855 here .... http://rpmseek.com/rpm-pl/855resolution.html?hl=com&crt=0:-:0::::2
[09:13] <john_jimmy> oskude,  c ya
[09:13] <oskude> sturm, when you try to start x ?
[09:13] <oskude> john_jimmy, bb
[09:13] <jeang> globe - are you connecting to the net thru a proxy?
[09:13] <OmegaAlpha> anyone know how to get programs to appear in your applications menu after they are installed via terminal?
[09:14] <globe> jeang - no but I am on a lan with router firewall
[09:14] <oskude> OmegaAlpha, only if they have a "definition" file for the gnome menu
[09:15] <rysiek|pl> hi there
[09:15] <jeang> globe- ok, some time you have to manually configure the proxy in synaptic
[09:15] <oskude> OmegaAlpha, then they should appear right away, or do "sudo kill gnome-panel" (but some taskbar icons may dissappear)
[09:15] <rysiek|pl> got a question: how come dpkg-reconfigure linux-image-$( uname -r ) makes me a new initrd... but *not* according to /etc/mkinitrd/mkinitrd.conf? o_O
[09:15] <cj> I'm asking MC Frontalot to write a song about Ubuntu:
[09:15] <cj> http://cjcollier.livejournal.com/tag/vsp
[09:15] <{-Sturm-}> oskude: yeah
[09:16] <oskude> {-Sturm-}, then your x setttings are not correct (its normal ;)

[09:17] <{-Sturm-}> odkude: yeah but i can'T seem to be ablet o change anything anywhere, and i choose a resolution of 800x600, there shouldn'T be any problem
[09:17] <globe> jeang: does it matter which version I get (4-1|3-4)?
[09:17] <oskude> {-Sturm-}, and please take those curly brackets out of your name (if you wish to see your name in messages)
[09:17] <{-Sturm-}> haha sure
[09:17] <oskude> Sturm---, thnx :)
[09:17] <Sturm---> np :)
[09:17] <oskude> Sturm---, im lazy to press alt+7
[09:18] <Sturm---> many scripts don'T like my brackets
[09:18] <lucasvo_> johndarkhorse: I know, I accidentally pasted something
[09:18] <mandarin> hi, is there something like 'apt-get upgrade security' kind of thing? i only want to keep up with the security update..
[09:18] <OmegaAlpha> oskude, i installed this program before on a previous ubuntu installation and it appeared in the apps menu but now it wont
[09:19] <Sturm---> osk: so at bootup, how can i change the x window settings?
[09:19] <johndarkhorse> mandarin: the security updates are up to date
[09:19] <oskude> OmegaAlpha, did you try to relog ?
[09:19] <OmegaAlpha> oskude, but nothing i download and install appears in the menus..
[09:19] <OmegaAlpha> oskude, yes,,, i tried relogging in and restarting the computer as well
[09:19] <jeang> globe - presume newer is better?
[09:19] <johndarkhorse> mandarin: or, your system will keep up with them as long as they are enabled in your sources.list
[09:20] <oskude> Sturm---, hmm, i got the same problem with debian sid atm, pc freezes when startin x so ican even get to console
[09:20] <Sturm---> k
[09:20] <oskude> Sturm---, do you get to ctrl+alt+f1 ?
[09:20] <mike-e> can i mount a ufs drive to ubuntu?
[09:20] <mandarin> johndarkhorse: apt-get upgrade will upgrade everything that is upgradable. but i _only_ want to do security upgrade as specified.
[09:20] <mike-e> and read/write to it?
[09:20] <cmpalmer> OmegaAlpha: I didn't forget you. sorry.
[09:20] <oskude> OmegaAlpha, then theres propably something missing/broke...
[09:20] <globe> jeang: I would think so... but oh boy...that alot of dead links
[09:20] <cmpalmer> OmegaAlpha: I just got swamped here
[09:20] <jeang> globe - is your sources.list like http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/6047
[09:21] <OmegaAlpha> cmpalmer, hehe i know. i figure you were having probs
[09:21] <jeang> globe - the web is full of them....
[09:21] <OmegaAlpha> oskude, thanks for your help.  but i dont think thats whats wrong since this happens with every program i install
[09:21] <oskude> OmegaAlpha, but, hoary did find my HP pcs1200 automaticly, breezy didnt :)
[09:21] <OmegaAlpha> cmpalmer, any luck?
[09:22] <oskude> OmegaAlpha, hmm, did you allso try the applications - add application ?
[09:22] <Sturm---> oskude: i did ctrl alt f1 but don'T see anything
[09:22] <gnomefreak> apt-get upgrade will not upgrade kernel
[09:22] <globe> jeang: yea, I found one.
[09:22] <Sturm---> plain black screen
[09:22] <themachine> I made a simply C++ program, how can I install it into my console? what keywords should I look up on a search engine?
[09:22] <OmegaAlpha> oskude, its wierd.. i installed ubuntu two weeks ago.. it recognized my ext hd.. and installed some progs on the menu.. now this new installation.. does neither
[09:22] <themachine> simple*
[09:23] <slabby> hi
[09:23] <oskude> Sturm---, hmm, then you may have to boot in "recovery mode" and
[09:23] <gnomefreak> themachine: did you compile it?
[09:23] <themachine> yes
[09:23] <themachine> it runs fine
[09:23] <slabby> hi themachine
[09:23] <cmpalmer> OmegaAlpha: 'fraid not
[09:23] <oskude> Sturm---, edit the /etc/X11/xorg.conf file
[09:23] <themachine> hello
[09:23] <gnomefreak> than just run it you cant install it to console
[09:23] <slabby> remember me?
[09:23] <cmpalmer> OmegaAlpha: I'm having trouble with Xauth
[09:23] <themachine> well I want to make it into a command I can use
[09:24] <slabby> i need some help with installing ubuntu
[09:24] <OmegaAlpha> oskude, no i havent.. im not familiar with using that
[09:24] <slabby> i have come up to an error
[09:24] <slabby> best place to ask?
[09:24] <gnomefreak> ./file.cpp doesnt work?
[09:24] <Sturm---> ahh im shooting in the dark here
[09:24] <Sturm---> hmmmm
[09:24] <oskude> OmegaAlpha, its like synaptic, and it should 100% add menu entries whe prog installed
[09:25] <Sturm---> how about if i format that hard drive with windows, reboot, format it with linux again...?
[09:25] <gnomefreak> themachine: i would write a bash script for it see the abs guide in synaptic for details on how to write one
[09:25] <slabby> where is the best place to ask for install help for ubuntu? I have an error
[09:25] <themachine> ah thanks
[09:25] <johndarkhorse> slabby: ask here.
[09:25] <progrock> Anyone knwo a good GUI user manager?
[09:25] <slabby> ok
[09:25] <johndarkhorse> progrock: system > prefs > users and groups
[09:25] <OmegaAlpha> oskude, k im looking at it now.. its mostly KDE apps.. and my progs i want are not listed...
[09:26] <oskude> OmegaAlpha, hmm
[09:26] <progrock> johndarkhorse, I'm not using gnome
[09:26] <oskude> OmegaAlpha, in "worst-case" you could add the programs manually to the menu
[09:26] <gnomefreak> progrock: than why were you asking about gnome manager before?
[09:27] <progrock> gnomefreak, because i figured i could install those and run them in xfce...
[09:27] <slabby> I have installed all fine apart from one problem it wouldnt auto find my network so I config'd it myself. I am pretty sure ive done it right. Then when the install was all finished (or so i believe). It started to load then came up with and error on X server. It offers me information about the error and says to check for new versions of X server in the internet, and when reading further down it says "no screens found"
[09:27] <gnomefreak> progrock: is gnome installed at all?
[09:27] <slabby> what is wrong?
[09:27] <oskude> Sturm---, login in "recovery mode" and edit the /etc/X11/xorg.conf file "nano /etc/X11/xorg.conf" and
[09:27] <progrock> gnomefreak, nope... but i dont mind installing components... im just runnign xfce as personal preference
[09:28] <slabby> oh and btw im using the x64 version
[09:28] <Sturm---> Sturm well i can'T even log in recovery mode
[09:28] <oskude> Sturm---, look that the "driver" is same as your GFX card/chip and
[09:28] <oskude> Sturm---, hmm
[09:28] <gnomefreak> mines listed in my xfce menu but i also have gnoem installed
[09:28] <gnomefreak> gnome
[09:28] <oskude> Sturm---, i must admit, i never used that "recovery mode"...
[09:28] <slabby> any one who can help me?
[09:28] <mpupu> is there any reason why my laptop doesn't turn off after a shutdown using the <IP_ADDRESS> kernel? it works fine with 2.10.5
[09:29] <Sturm---> yeah im running out of idea, but its stupid, if i format the whole damn hard drive, there must be a simple way to update/remove that damn grub loader
[09:29] <oskude> Sturm---, maybe you cant tell grub to start ubuntu in a init mode that doesnt start x...
[09:30] <slabby> can anyone help me please?
[09:30] <progrock> gnomefreak, so bascalyl ifi install gnome everything should appear?
[09:30] <OmegaAlpha> oskude, how do you add them manually?
[09:30] <john_jimmy> oskude, I still cant login
[09:30] <oskude> OmegaAlpha, right click in the menu (applications) in the panel
[09:30] <oskude> john_jimmy, not even on the console ?
[09:30] <zAo^> does anyone know how to get this on Dapper: http://shots.osdir.com/slideshows/460/4.gif
[09:30] <john_jimmy> oskude, I tried the apt-get clean and the gdm reconfig
[09:31] <john_jimmy> oskude, I can get to the console
[09:31] <cmpalmer> OmegaAlpha: I'm sorry. did you find help elsewhere?
[09:31] <oskude> john_jimmy, ok
[09:31] <john_jimmy> oskude, but from there I cant
[09:31] <slabby> can anyone help me please?
[09:31] <oskude> john_jimmy, so "sudo apt-get clean" and "sudo dpkg-reconfigure gdm" didnt help ?
[09:32] <john_jimmy> oskude, yes
[09:32] <john_jimmy> oskude, what do i do?
[09:32] <oskude> john_jimmy, sec
[09:33] <slabby> can anyone help me please?
[09:33] <stupendo44> slabby: did you state your problem yet?
[09:33] <_jason> !helpme
[09:33] <ubotu> If you don't actually ask a question, we can not actually help you.
[09:33] <slabby> i have asked it twice
[09:33] <slabby> I have installed all fine apart from one problem it wouldnt auto find my network so I config'd it myself. I am pretty sure ive done it right. Then when the install was all finished (or so i believe). It started to load then came up with and error on X server. It offers me information about the error and says to check for new versions of X server in the internet, and when reading further down it says "no screens found"
[09:33] <oskude> john_jimmy, maybe still a reboot, and if still doesnt work, maybe asking on a gnome channel
[09:33] <Syns> granted sometimes we ask in vain
[09:34] <slabby> hope that makes sense
[09:34] <cmpalmer> slabby: your problem is not a network problem
[09:34] <cmpalmer> slabby: look at the errors it gives you
[09:34] <cmpalmer> slabby: that will tell you what you need to fix when you reconfigure xorg
[09:34] <stupendo44> slabby: do you have a more specific error message?
[09:34] <globe> what is the syntax of the dpkg cmd to install a .deb file?
[09:34] <john_jimmy> oskude, Okay...
[09:35] <cmpalmer> globe: dpkg -i foo.deb
[09:35] <slabby> there is lots about diagnostic
[09:35] <oskude> john_jimmy, and tell them that you had partition full
[09:35] <globe> cpalmer: thk
[09:35] <oskude> john_jimmy, and now gdm wont let you login
[09:35] <slabby> the key point seemed to be "no screen found" i can look for more if that'll help
[09:35] <OmegaAlpha> cmpalmer, yes.. dont worry about it.. its not that important.. this is something i have been putting off and will probably put off again lol
[09:35] <oskude> john_jimmy, even after you made space
[09:35] <john_jimmy> oskude, http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-76736.html
[09:36] <john_jimmy> oskude, may be this will work?
[09:36] <cmpalmer> OmegaAlpha: as a workaround you can add the "run command" applet to your panel
[09:36] <Sturm---> what the hell
[09:36] <engla> I had my whole gnome-session killed. Everything just stalled, the cursor just jumped and nothing happened.  The message "*** glibc detected *** corrupted double-linked list: 0x00355848 ***" was left in tty 7, gdm started anew in tty 8. Which package shoudl I file that bug against? ;-)
[09:36] <Sturm---> i booted in windows, then rebooted and i didn'T look at the screen but somehow, i see ubuntu starting up
[09:36] <Sturm---> weird weird stuff going on :|
[09:36] <slabby> cmpalmer, stupendo44 : what do i need to do then? do you want more info from the error?
[09:37] <globe> what is the cmd to extract a tgz file?
[09:37] <john_jimmy> oskude, do broken packages do that?
[09:37] <john_jimmy> oskude,  I mean mess up my gdm?
[09:37] <oskude> john_jimmy, you could try "sudo apt-get install --reinstall gdm"
[09:37] <oskude> john_jimmy, you had it working, so no
[09:37] <Pybe> globe: tar xzvf file.tgz
[09:38] <oskude> john_jimmy, broken packages come mostly upon installation
[09:38] <globe> Pybe: thanks
[09:38] <Pybe> globe: np
[09:38] <john_jimmy> oskude,  so what do I do
[09:38] <oskude> john_jimmy, you could try "sudo apt-get install --reinstall gdm"
[09:38] <stupendo44> slabby: a more specific error would help
[09:38] <slabby> ok brb
[09:38] <slabby> will go and get more
[09:39] <gnomefreak> progrock: sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop
[09:39] <gnomefreak> that will get you everything
[09:39] <oskude> slabby, you could post your xorg.conf in pastepin or so...
[09:39] <john_jimmy> oskude, ok.. brb
[09:39] <muletool> i cant get the sound to work using a es1371
[09:40] <progrock> gnomefreak, thats not going to mess up my xubuntu install?
[09:40] <gnomefreak> nope
[09:40] <knight> how do I stop x server
[09:40] <knight> how do I stop xserver

[09:44] <Shmee> how can I have gnome load at boot instead of command line?
[09:44] <Shmee> i'm fairly new to linux.
[09:45] <Seveas> Shmee, it loads at boot by default...
[09:45] <Seveas> unless you did a server install
[09:45] <Shmee> o.o
[09:45] <Shmee> I think I did a server install.
[09:46] <Shmee> damn
[09:46] <_u_> i followed http://help.ubuntu.com/starterguide/C/ch04.html#installatidriver but when i restart, the xserver dosnt want to load... its the last line in point 2
[09:46] <_u_> i dunno what i should do
[09:46] <Seveas> Shmee, sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop
[09:46] <Seveas> that'll correct it
[09:46] <_u_> lol
[09:46] <Shmee> thanks Seveas

[09:49] <stupendo44> *     /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[09:49] <slabby> cmpalmer : I have a Radeon X800 - PCI express
[09:49] <slabby> is it a driver issue then?
[09:49] <Sturm---> so, i can finally boot in ubuntu, but the settings are wrong and i only see a mix of colors and lines, how can i go about fixing this? i can access the terminal with ctrl-alt-f1
[09:49] <cmpalmer> slabby: yes
[09:49] <gnomefreak> slabby: did you disable the onboard card?
[09:50] <slabby> i dont have an onboard graphics card
[09:50] <ian_> Anyone installed Ubuntu on an iMac?
[09:51] <oskude> Sturm---, try running "sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg" and dont let it automaticly configure
[09:52] <oskude> Sturm---, and do you have a agp graphics card ?
[09:52] <slabby> gnomefreak or stupendo or anyone else that can help
[09:52] <Sturm---> yeah its an agp
[09:52] <Sturm---> a 6600GT
[09:53] <cmpalmer> slabby: try the ati driver
[09:53] <cmpalmer> !ati
[09:53] <ubotu> hmm... ati is https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BinaryDriverHowto/ATI or http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=24557&page=1&pp=10 or http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=423589
[09:53] <slabby> I have found the solution to me problem but I need to know how to do it in simple noob steps
[09:53] <slabby> http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/showthread.php?t=417163
[09:53] <slabby> that seems to explain it
[09:53] <gnomefreak> slabby: did you run sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg?
[09:53] <slabby> same Gcard as me
[09:53] <slabby> no how do i do that
[09:53] <slabby> after the error it takes me to login screen
[09:54] <slabby> asking for user and PSW
[09:54] <oskude> Sturm---, im no l337, is that an ati or nvidia ?
[09:54] <ubuntu> hello
[09:54] <slabby> how do i run that command gnomefreak?
[09:55] <_u_> ati seems to suck ;) everyone has problems with this stuff
[09:55] <gnomefreak> slabby: iin a terminal type sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[09:55] <gnomefreak> _u_: thats why i got a nvidia card today and still dont have 3d :(
[09:55] <slabby> gnomefreak : sorry for being a nub but how do i get to a terminal type?
[09:55] <ubuntu> i am spanish
[09:56] <soundray> _u_: the major consumer graphics cards vendors (ATI and NVidia) have sacrificed stability and quality for "gaming" performance.
[09:56] <ubuntu> good bye i don't undertand nothing
[09:56] <cmpalmer> ubotu: tell ubuntu about es
[09:56] <_u_> hmm...
[09:56] <_u_> lol
[09:56] <oskude> slabby, ctrl+alt+f1
[09:56] <gnomefreak> slabby: are you in ubuntu right now?
[09:56] <Sturm---> oskude: after its configured, i try startx?
[09:56] <ubuntu> yes
[09:56] <gnomefreak> oskude: if hes in tty it wont work
[09:56] <_u_> ok.. thought it was bad to have an ati ^^ @ soundray
[09:56] <slabby> i am just after the error
[09:57] <stoned> offtoptic:  usual suspects is a brilliant fscking movie
[09:57] <slabby> and it goes to a screen asking for login
[09:57] <saniX> http://mohammad.islamway.com/
[09:57] <_u_> uhm @ gnomefreak
[09:57] <oskude> Sturm---, try "sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart" or alt+backspace in gmd
[09:57] <gnomefreak> slabby: than type in your login info
[09:57] <slabby> ok
[09:57] <linuxboyfriend> when i give command "sudo apt-get install some_package", i does not give me any option like [Y/N]  but it automatically starts download, why? and how can I fix this?
[09:57] <_jason> stoned: #ubuntu-offtopic and yeah i agree
[09:57] <slabby> then type that code?
[09:57] <slabby> sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[09:57] <oskude> gnomefreak, works here...
[09:57] <cmpalmer> slabby: correct
[09:58] <slabby> ok, will try it now
[09:58] <slabby> brb
[09:58] <gnomefreak> slabby: after you have a prompt that looks like gnomefreak@dapperdrake$
[09:58] <_jason> linuxboyfriend: it asks if it needs to do other things like add and remove packages you didn't mention
[09:58] <Sturm---> hmmok, same thing as before, but i didn'T really change any settings
[09:58] <Sturm---> didN't know what to change everything seemed alright
[09:58] <gnomefreak> oskude: it doesnt work here without graphics
[09:58] <linuxboyfriend> _jason: can i add any option so it should ask me?
[09:58] <soundray> _u_, I've had the least trouble with an older ATI Radeon, quite some trouble with a mobile Geforce, and the ATI X200 was a right pain in the neck.
[09:58] <ubuntu> no me entero de nada
[09:58] <ubuntu> jaja
[09:59] <gnomefreak> !es
[09:59] <ubotu> Hispanohablantes: Por favor usen #ubuntu-es, #kubuntu-es o #edubuntu-es, alli obtendran mas ayuda.
[09:59] <oskude> gnomefreak, hmm, it used to work with alt before... well, then only ctrl+f1
[09:59] <_u_> well i have got here a mobile radeon x700 soundray
[09:59] <_jason> linuxboyfriend: check 'man apt-get' but I don't know of one
[09:59] <cmpalmer> ubuntu: vea lo que dijo ubotu
[09:59] <slabby> then it tells me "do you want to autoconfigure video hardware"
[09:59] <jessy_> someone know how to change the port use by pureftpd ???
[09:59] <slabby> yes?
[09:59] <_u_> and no idea why the changes in the manual screw up :/
[09:59] <cmpalmer> slabby: try that
[09:59] <oskude> Sturm---, then try with vesa driver and 1024x768 reslotuin and under 70herz for monitor, or 60hz for lcd...
[10:00] <gnomefreak> slabby: do you know any of the info of your card and moniter?
[10:00] <slabby> select yes?
[10:00] <ubuntu> ok tahk
[10:00] <Sturm---> k
[10:00] <slabby> card is X800
[10:00] <slabby> monitor is samsung
[10:00] <zF> Backspace +shift restarts X - this is EXTREMELY annoying, how can I remove this binding?
[10:00] <gnomefreak> slabby: its going to ask you what budid is for that card
[10:00] <gnomefreak> busid*
[10:00] <slabby> gnomefreak: and what is it? or where can i find it?
[10:00] <soundray> linuxboyfriend: you tell it to install a package, and it does it. Why should it ask?
[10:00] <^Ocean^> is there anyway to test if there is input comeing in from my Microphone plug on my sound card ?
[10:01] <gnomefreak> slabby: lspci should give you that info
[10:01] <Sturm---> maaaaaaaaaagic
[10:01] <cmpalmer> gnomefreak: he won't need that if it's x86
[10:01] <Sturm---> it worked!
[10:01] <gnomefreak> slabby: yes click yes if something is wrong change it
[10:01] <cmpalmer> gnomefreak: he shouldn't need it, anyway
[10:01] <slabby> it is 64
[10:01] <zF> Backspace +shift restarts X - this is EXTREMELY annoying, how can I remove this binding?
[10:01] <slabby> 64bit
[10:01] <Sturm---> oskude: THANKS a lot :)
[10:01] <gnomefreak> cmpalmer: i just did it and i needed it :(
[10:01] <oskude> Sturm---, now you could try different dirvers, for ati, "ati" or "radeon"
[10:01] <cmpalmer> gnomefreak: oh. :(
[10:01] <slabby> cmpalmer: it is 64bit still ok?
[10:01] <Sturm---> well its a gforce
[10:01] <oskude> Sturm---, until you find what works and what not, mostly its the monirot refresh rates
[10:02] <gnomefreak> it was seeing my ati onboard card so i had to pull the lil battery out to reset bios :(
[10:02] <soundray> zF: how did you set this binding?
[10:02] <slabby> brb will try selecting yes
[10:02] <oskude> Sturm---, dunno how the xorg nvidia drivers is called
[10:02] <santiago> I testing x-chat!
[10:02] <Sturm---> k
[10:02] <zF> soundray, my friend who updated to dapper has the same problem... It'd incredibly annoying, it's now set in preferences --> key bindings
[10:03] <soundray> santiago: test worked.
[10:03] <gnomefreak> oskude: nvidia-settings
[10:03] <gnomefreak> nvidia-glx
[10:03] <soundray> zF: strange, not here...
[10:03] <oskude> Sturm---, but there are howtos howto install nvidia binary drivers at ubuntu wiki
[10:03] <Sturm---> ya know what's weird anyway, i think i have two boot loaders installed now, but i only see the one i installed with unbuntu when i have a windows startup disk in the cd rom!
[10:03] <Sturm---> if not, i see the other loader
[10:03] <zF> soundray, are you using Dapper?
[10:03] <oskude> gnomefreak, i meant the names used in xorg.conf
[10:03] <zF> well, we both have Dell 700m laptops.
[10:03] <gnomefreak> Sturm---: are you using dapper or breezy?
[10:03] <gnomefreak> ahhhhh
[10:03] <soundray> zF yes
[10:04] <zF> soundray, any idea how to unbind? This is honestly driving me to NOT use ubuntu because I type it all the time with any text
[10:04] <slabby> guys, it says my card is a X850, R(480) but it is a X800
[10:04] <Sturm---> breezy
[10:04] <Linux_Kong> can someone do me a favour and try and ssh to kong.homelinux.net, dont worry its my box, just testing i have dyndns and ptfwing in my adsl router setup correctly
[10:04] <oskude> slabby, who sais that ? your gfx box ?
[10:04] <gnomefreak> slabby: make sure and fix it if you need too
[10:04] <soundray> zF: can you not unset it in Prefs-Keyboard Shortcuts?
[10:05] <zF> soundray, hmmm, maybe I can try to rebind it as something else then just remove that binding
[10:05] <slabby> how do i fix it? it is deff a x800 but the x server autoconfig says it is X850
[10:05] <oskude> slabby, and what does lspci say ?
[10:05] <gnomefreak> take out the 50 and put 00
[10:05] <sethk> slabby, maybe you don't care.  let it do what it thinks is correct, and see if it works properly
[10:06] <gnomefreak> sethk: i think thats why he has no gui
[10:06] <slabby> what is lspci?
[10:06] <soundray> zF: at least that should tell you the name of the gnome function that restarts X.
[10:06] <gnomefreak> something isnt right
[10:06] <dang`r`us> hi
[10:06] <dang`r`us> (wow, huge channel)
[10:06] <gnomefreak> slabby: type in terminal lspci
[10:06] <oskude> slabby, a command so show what devices are in pci bus present
[10:06] <blekos> hi guys
[10:06] <blekos> anybody installed the new open office?
[10:07] <slabby> ok so i will just agree and see if it works
[10:07] <blekos> got any probs?
[10:07] <soundray> zF: otherwise, I'd suggest looking through the options in gconf-editor
[10:07] <slabby> leave it as X850?
[10:07] <gnomefreak> blekos: the new one in dapper or 2.0 in general?
[10:07] <dang`r`us> I'm running dapper flight 4 - what's the recommended way to change the display driver? (I've downloaded the fglrx driver, but do I just change the line in xorg.conf or is there another way?)
[10:07] <zF> soundray, works :)
[10:07] <slabby> or just change the name?
[10:07] <soundray> blekos: yes, it doesn't run...
[10:07] <zF> I just set it tom y home folder
[10:07] <oskude> blekos, had to install my printer manually :)
[10:07] <blekos> the new in dd
[10:07] <gnomefreak> blekos: im doing it now ill let you know
[10:07] <soundray> zF: well done. Still strange, though.
[10:07] <oskude> i got a fresh breezy install an ooo2 works
[10:07] <gnomefreak> blekos: it was held back for a reason
[10:07] <blekos> i had dd 2 weeks now, but 2day there was a new update...
[10:07] <santiago> quien sabe algo de verizon dsl with ubuntu?
[10:08] <slide> ok wtf, some gay app is using up 100% of my cpu and my load average is 23.62, 16.97, 8.24 I cant seem to get a console or anything but all my other apps still running are fine. Anyone know of a cmd I can execute through xchats /exec to kill the greedy app?
[10:08] <Kr4t05> !doom
[10:08] <ubotu> somebody said doom was https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Doom3
[10:08] <gnomefreak> blekos: the update was uploaded today
[10:08] <cmpalmer> ubotu: tell santiago about es
[10:08] <blekos> icons seem 2 appear or disappear when u pass the pointer over them
[10:08] <sethk> slabby, sure, try it as x850, it will probably be fine
[10:08] <gnomefreak> blekos: in the gnome menu?
[10:08] <blekos> icons like fonts, paragraph etc
[10:08] <Stormx2> Can someone gimme a hand? I need to run a command in gnome terminal on boot. How? :(
[10:08] <gnomefreak> oh everything
[10:08] <blekos> eg, i f u open a doc
[10:09] <dang`r`us> Stormx2, system->preferences->sessions ->startup programs
[10:09] <sethk> Stormx2, that doesn't make sense, you can't run gnome-terminal before X is up.  but probably you are confused and your requirement has nothing to do with gnome-terminal
[10:09] <dang`r`us> well, that's "on login" technically speaking ... but you won't get a gnome terminal before login anyway
[10:09] <santiago> estoy probando kubuntu y quiero saver mas de dsl
[10:09] <dang`r`us> (I agree with sethk)
[10:10] <avu> dang`r`us, I think just changing the line in your xorg.conf is the way to go
[10:10] <gnomefreak> blekos: mine works fine
[10:10] <Stormx2> sethk: GNOME startup.
[10:10] <dang`r`us> avu, ok :D
[10:10] <dang`r`us> Stormx2, then like I described
[10:10] <sethk> Stormx2, what about gnome startup?
[10:10] <Stormx2> dang`r`us: I know. But I don't know the command for running a specific command in gnome-terminal
[10:10] <blekos> hmm
[10:11] <Stormx2> sethk: When my desktop loads, X is running.
[10:11] <santiago> no body can contact wiki me in spanish!
[10:11] <dang`r`us> Stormx2, gnome-terminal should have a cmdline switch for this
[10:11] <sethk> Stormx2, and?
[10:11] <dang`r`us> Stormx2, consult the manpage
[10:11] <Stormx2> dang`r`us: I did x.x
[10:11] <dang`r`us> Stormx2, it's right there, the first option
[10:12] <dang`r`us> -e, --command=STRING
[10:12] <dang`r`us> or -x, --execute
[10:12] <Stormx2> dang`r`us: I tried that though. The gnome-terminal window comes up, and goes away straight away
[10:12] <dang`r`us> Stormx2, that means your command has finished, probably
[10:12] <dang`r`us> Stormx2, append a "; read foo" to your command
[10:13] <blekos> could u tell me the components that r installed from synaptic for oo?
[10:13] <dang`r`us> then it will wait for a press of return
[10:13] <blekos> mine has oo.org and oo.org-base
[10:13] <soundray> blekos: you can check that yourself: apt-cache depends openoffice.org
[10:13] <blekos> thnx
[10:13] <Stormx2> dang`r`us: It hasn't though. When I run it in an already open window, the command keeps going.
[10:13] <soundray> blekos: sorry: apt-cache depends openoffice.org2
[10:14] <blekos> apt-cache depends openoffice.org2
[10:14] <dang`r`us> Stormx2, do the read foo thing, maybe your program is not being found or something.
[10:14] <mike-e> can ubuntu write to ufs without problems?
[10:14] <Stormx2> dang`r`us: I'll give it a go
[10:14] <nadia007> Wondering if anyone knows of a GUI backup program for ubuntu?
[10:14] <gnomefreak> Stormx2: you might want to use a wait type string in your source (if you wrote the program)
[10:15] <soundray> nadia007: sbackup
[10:15] <gnomefreak> nadia007: there are a few of them search in synaptic for backup
[10:15] <nadia007> sounray, thx... I'll take a look
[10:15] <WebLOCH> hey im looking for someone to help me with nvidia/xserve/monitor problems, ideally someone with a geforce 6000 series
[10:15] <Stormx2> dang`r`us: I'm using this line: gnome-terminal -e=cd\ /media/Win98/moojava/classes;\ java\ runTWOServer;
[10:15] <nadia007> gnomefreak, I've been looking... I just didn't know which were gui... thx
[10:16] <slabby> im back: lspci gives me 2 video devices; VGA ATI adapter etc (is 0000:01:00.0) and Display controller ATI etc (is 0000:01:00.1) which one do i enter for xserver config when it asks for it
[10:16] <gnomefreak> nadia007: normally the discription would tell you but ive never searched for a backup app
[10:16] <santiago> ok lets go and fine some body bilingue can some body with ubuntu contact me here?
[10:16] <gnomefreak> slabby: you have an onboard video card
[10:16] <dang`r`us> Stormx2, well, I don't know about your runTWOServer ... do the read foo thing ;)  (and escape spaces as needed or put the whole thing in quotes)
[10:16] <soundray> nadia007: sbackup is really nice for basic desktop backup tasks.
[10:16] <Stormx2> gnomefreak: I *know* this program doesn't suddenly finish
[10:16] <slabby> no just ATI X800
[10:16] <NRG88> hitech, i use kubuntu, but want to make ubuntu from it
[10:17] <Stormx2> so
[10:17] <slabby> gnomefreak: i dont have onboard just my X800
[10:17] <gnomefreak> slabby: if i had to guess the second one
[10:17] <Stormx2> gnome-terminal -e=cd\ /media/Win98/moojava/classes;\ java\ runTWOServer;\ read\ foo;
[10:17] <dang`r`us> exactly
[10:17] <fletch33> o.k. i have an unusual question for everyone. i have a .jpg with a lot of typed printing on it. i do not want to retype all the information because it is a lot and i stink at typing. so is it possible to use something in ubu to capture the text off of a .jpg?
[10:17] <NRG88> i removed kubuntu-artwork-usplash
[10:17] <pcarnie> Please can anybody help!!! I have an issue with Ubuntu 5.04
[10:17] <dang`r`us> (the space after the semicolon is not neccessary btw)
[10:17] <gnomefreak> !helpme
[10:17] <ubotu> If you don't actually ask a question, we can not actually help you.
[10:17] <NRG88> but the kubuntu splash screen remains
[10:17] <Kanalal> hi, does anyone know if its possible to install an i386 app on an amd64 architecture?
[10:17] <NRG88> how can i change it to ubuntu splash screen?
[10:18] <slabby> gnome : and that is in hexedecimal but xserver want is in decimal what do i enter for xserver?
[10:18] <WebLOCH> Anyone want to babysit me through some nvidia/xorg config ?
[10:18] <Stormx2> bash:  java runTWOServer: command not found
[10:18] <Stormx2> bash: read foo: command not found
[10:18] <soundray> Kanalal: only if you create a 32-bit chroot environment. Ubotu knows more...
[10:18] <soundray> !chroot
[10:18] <ubotu> hmm... chroot is at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebootstrapChroot and http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=24575
[10:18] <Stormx2> I *know* this command works otherwise... meh >_<
[10:18] <Kr4t05> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/9643  <--- Doom 3 error
[10:18] <mike-e> can ubuntu write to ufs without problems?
[10:18] <dang`r`us> Stormx2, ah ... it's not a bash that's executing the commands
[10:18] <slabby> gnome : and that is in hexedecimal but xserver want is in decimal what do i enter for xserver?
[10:19] <soundray> Stormx2: could you not put everything into a bash script?
[10:19] <Stormx2> soundray: Yeah why not. OK
[10:19] <dang`r`us> Stormx2, I'd follow soundray's suggestion

[10:20] <pcarnie> Has anybody seen the issue with the screen resolution app. I cannot change my resolution from 1024x768 to 1280x1024. The refresh rate is incorrect to it just displys -25873 Hz
[10:20] <gnomefreak> Kr4t05: #ubuntu-es
[10:20] <gnomefreak> ubotu tell pcarnie about fixres
[10:20] <Kr4t05> santiago: #ubuntu-es por espangol
[10:20] <deefzi> does anyone of you use alsa-oss?
[10:20] <slabby> anyone know? I have the hex code for my graphics card and I need the decimal code to enter for my graphics card. The hex from lspci is (0000:01:00.0)
[10:20] <soundray> fletch33: you want an OCR program. There is gocr and a couple of others.
[10:20] <lucasvo_> anybody using opengroupware.org? how did you install it?
[10:21] <lucasvo_> did you compile sope?
[10:21] <slabby> kr4t05: si
[10:21] <pcarnie> Thanx gnomefreak. I'll look at that
[10:21] <slabby> kr4t05: #ubuntu-es por espangol
[10:21] <fletch33> soundray, an ocr program will capture the text off of a .jpg?
[10:21] <santiago> kr4to5 :)
[10:21] <soundray> fletch33: OCR=optical character recognition.
[10:21] <Kr4t05> santiago: denada
[10:21] <fletch33> soundray,  have you  ever used 1?
[10:21] <slabby> anyone know? I have the hex code for my graphics card and I need the decimal code to enter for my graphics card. The hex from lspci is (0000:01:00.0)
[10:21] <soundray> fletch33: depends on the program. Gocr will require you to convert jpg to pnm, but that's easy.
[10:21] <soundray> fletch33: yes.
[10:22] <santiago> kr4to5 sabes de network?
[10:22] <fletch33> soundray,  could you recommend the steps i should take i would appreciate it
[10:22] <fletch33> soundray,  i just checked synaptic for gocr and i didnt find anyhthing
