[05:20] <pantalaimon_> ikonia, but i think i already did it, because during installation i made a logica volume be the root filesystem
[05:20] <jrib> phixnay: bye
[05:20] <rasputnik> superbear: man signal - but sending SIGSTOP doesn't always stop a process
[05:20] <ikonia> pantalaimon_: so the data should already be on an lvm
[05:20] <phixnay> jrib: lol thx
[05:20] <Sasa> what you say Ubuntu us far far far more powerful, what are you referring to? I can feel it having so much under the hood, but I can't see it all, as I'm just one humble infatuated noob.
[05:21] <phixnay> jrib: sudo shutdown -c
[05:21] <ikonia> Sasa: you'll find good intro docs on http://www.ubuntu.com
[05:21] <AlexC_> Sasa: you'll get use to it. What I meant was Ubuntu's update manager/package manager is far more powerful than "Windows Update" which can only update Windows, not programs installed on Windows
[05:22] <pantalaimon_> ikonia, yes... the /boot is on a fisical partition so grub can find the vmlinuz and stuff but then when it tries to boot the kernel, the kernel says something like it wasnt able to mount root
[05:22] <soundray> [Ayanami] : your workflow is going to stop for a while if you do a hard switch to 24/7 ubuntu. Would it not be better to dual-boot until you know what ubuntu can and can't do for you?
[05:22] <pantalaimon_> ikonia, physical*
[05:22] <ikonia> pantalaimon_: you need to investigate why
[05:22] <feryana> ikonia it's possible to copy all my Ubuntu (laptop) to the new desktop that I will purchase?
[05:22] <AlexC_> Sasa: here, this is a good read to get use to Ubuntu/Linux: https://help.ubuntu.com/6.10/ubuntu/desktopguide/C/index.html
[05:22] <jrib> phixnay: erm, why are you still here?
[05:22] <ikonia> pantalaimon_: having /boot on a physical partition is good
[05:22] <paLindr0me> !pppoe
[05:22] <ubotu> Setting up an ADSL/PPPoE connection? Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ADSLPPPoE
[05:22] <ikonia> feryana: you can copy data - not the ubuntu install
[05:22] <phixnay> jrib: sudo shutdown -c
[05:22] <jrib> phixnay: oh
[05:22] <rasputnik> pantalaimon_: have you passed a 'root=/dev/mapper/whatever' argument to grub?
[05:23] <feryana> ikonia , so I have to start over and install everything again?
[05:23] <phixnay> jrib: lol
[05:23] <ikonia> feryana: yup
[05:23] <phixnay> I'm going to test it again
[05:23] <phixnay> this time for real
[05:23] <soundray> feryana: no, you can transfer data over from the old to the new machine
[05:23] <pantalaimon_> ikonia, yes, but i think the problem is that the kernel has no idea where is this /dev/mapper/whatever
[05:23] <AlexC_> phixnay: is Ubuntu not shutting down for you with "shutdow" ?
[05:23] <ikonia> pantalaimon_: it should do - lvm is already installed
[05:23] <feryana> soundray, and how? what should I need to do?
[05:23] <pantalaimon_> rasputnik, , yes, but i think the problem is that the kernel has no idea where is this /dev/mapper/whatever
[05:23] <feryana> soundray , and how? what should I need to do?
[05:24] <ikonia> feryana: you can only copy data - not the ubuntu install
[05:24] <phixnay> AlexC_: shutdown is working correctly, I did "sudo shutdown -c" to cancel the shutdown
[05:24] <soundray> feryana: install ubuntu on the new machine (takes 20 to 30 minutes). Network them. Copy the data over.
[05:24] <Cribbzter> why do my efforts to instal ndiswrapper fail with no permissions!
[05:24] <Lunar_Lamp> How can I tunnel traffic so that I can use Azureus behind a proxy?
[05:25] <AlexC_> phixnay: oh ... just cos when I do "shutdown -h now" it never ever works. It just kicks me to CLI ... not sure why it is. Oh well, I never use it anyway lol
[05:25] <phixnay> lol that is strange
[05:25] <ikonia> Lunar_Lamp: you need to have direct access to the internet from your host
[05:25] <withaY> soundray: so i tested epiphany and although it's a bit faster and is taking up less memory, i still get slow heavy javascript pages.  here's just one example of an ajax-ified gallery that will slow to a crawl:  http://jquery.com/demo/thickbox/
[05:25] <pantalaimon_> rasputnik, in some howto i saw something like you need a special initrd image that can find the logical volumes and allow the kernel to mount root there
[05:25] <phixnay> AlexC_ were you root?
[05:25] <untitled1> where can i read about making bootsplash in kubuntu?
[05:25] <Lunar_Lamp> ikonia, can't I tunnel the traffic through an SSH connection?
[05:25] <AlexC_> phixnay: no, but I've tried root and sudo and everything, still no luck
[05:25] <ikonia> Lunar_Lamp: yes - but you need a direct connection to the internet
[05:25] <feryana> soundray , yes I'm downloading the new version.  And then? I must install all the software again and configurate everything once more?
[05:25] <rasputnik> pantalaimon_: that's why I wondered if it was still supported - you need the device mapper bits in the kernel
[05:25] <ikonia> feryana: yes
[05:25] <nowhere> Hi, I'm trying to set up dapper here but after installing ati drivers for ati 9600 and reboot it gets caught into an endless one.. After the first time I installed ubuntu again and tried another method.. Same problem :(
[05:26] <ikonia> rasputnik: I was under the impression its part of the default install
[05:26] <phixnay> AlexC: weird. I guess if you never have to use it, it's no biggie
[05:26] <FactTech> Question: Does anyone know the name of the software underlying the "add/remove" function in Xfce?
[05:26] <AlexC_> phixnay: yeah exactly, no worries :P
[05:26] <soundray> feryana: if your concern is the packages you have installed, you can do 'dpkg --get-selections >/tmp/selections', copy /tmp/selections to the new machine and do 'cat /tmp/selections | dpkg --set-selections'
[05:26] <pantalaimon_> rasputnik, and this is not already there by default, i mean do i have to recompile the kernel maybe?
[05:27] <Lunar_Lamp> ikonia, what do you mean "direct connection to the internet". Wouldn;t this work: PC-->ssh-->HomeServer-->direct-->Torrents
[05:27] <rasputnik> ikonia:  my lvm root was installed back on breezy, then upgraded - but a fresh install didn't seem to support it.
[05:27] <Sasa> ok, I'm out....once again, you guys ROCK
[05:27] <feryana> ok soundray thanks!
[05:27] <minh> how do i configure my xorg?
[05:27] <rasputnik> pantalaimon_: to be honest i dont' know. you can probably just add stuff to the ramdisk
[05:27] <soundray> withaY: they load reasonably fast here. Is your machine page swapping?
[05:27] <skywalker> hi
[05:28] <feryana> soundray that includees the softeware? or just the dependences
[05:28] <rasputnik> ok, i've read the manpage for the third time and it's dreadful. what's the right cdrecord incantation?
[05:28] <soundray> feryana: 'man dpkg' for details
[05:28] <AlexC_> minh: either edit the file "gksudo gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf" or do "sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg"
[05:28] <feryana> ok
[05:28] <untitled1_> where can i read about making bootsplash in ubuntu?
[05:28] <ssl_> plz,how to enable 'super-key' on xfce?how to use the 'xmodmap' command?
[05:28] <skywalker> I have no sound do configure it in KDE or the Ub desktop or it does not matter?
[05:29] <minh> thx AlexC, i'm trying to install compiz (http://gandalfn.wordpress.com/howto/howto-compiz-aiglx-on-edgy/)
[05:29] <ikonia> Lunar_Lamp: yes that will work
[05:29] <soundray> rasputnik: I think growisofs will give you less dread
[05:29] <withaY> soundray: the zoomed images load fast for you in that example i provided a link to?  and how would i monitor page swapping if i were to test?
[05:29] <ikonia> rasputnik: I thought it was fine in 6.06 I could be wrong
[05:29] <Lunar_Lamp> ikonia, ok, I thought so. Do you have any idea how I can configure it though? I don't.
[05:29] <AlexC_> minh: do "gksudo gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf" then
[05:29] <Lunar_Lamp> ikonia, I have no problems tunnelling my IRC traffic.
[05:29] <ikonia> Lunar_Lamp: yup  you do it the same as irc but on different ports
[05:30] <rasputnik> soundray: cheers
[05:30] <soundray> withaY: 'cat /proc/meminfo', compare SwapTotal: and SwapFree:
[05:30] <Lunar_Lamp> ikonia, what do I use as the azureus server though?
[05:30] <ikonia> Lunar_Lamp: your pc
[05:30] <Phasor> Gparted refuses to resize my NTFS partition due to a bad sectors error thrown up by NTFSRESIZE. However, I have already used NTFSRESIZE successfully to resize it to 130GiB from 200GiB. How do I change the partition successfully?
[05:31] <Lunar_Lamp> ikonia, oh, so whereas I'd use "irc.freenode.org" I can change that to "localhost"?
[05:31] <ssl_> plz,how to enable 'super-key' on xfce?how to use the 'xmodmap' command to enable it?Anybody help?
[05:31] <soundray> withaY: it takes just over a second to bring up the zoomed image
[05:31] <feryana> soundray I made it and instantly it finished, however, I have 'ubuntu-6.10-desktop-i386.iso.part' that file in the desktop and the size is increasing.  It's ok?
[05:31] <tominglis> hi guys, i am trying to install nvidia-glx on ubuntu feisty to get my geforce go 7950 gtx sli cards working, and i am having difficulty. the nvidia-glx package seems to install kernel 2.6.20-5-386 and the associated restricted modules, but this hangs on 'starting up...' if i uninstall that and install restricted modules 2.6.20-8-generic, will that work with the default feisty kernel, and will it get upgraded by apt as
[05:31] <tominglis> new versions come out?
[05:31] <feryana> oh no
[05:31] <Lunar_Lamp> ikonia, which ports do I need to use though?
[05:31] <feryana> that's the file that I;m downloading
[05:31] <feryana> lol
[05:31] <ikonia> Lunar_Lamp: you don't enter a server - you tunnel to the server with direct internet connection
[05:31] <feryana> soundray were can I find the file ?
[05:32] <lesshaste> anyone got madwifi and network manager to work together?
[05:32] <Lunar_Lamp> ikonia, I'm a little unsure - I currently use port forwarding rather than tunnelling.  I think I'm confused as to what I should be doing.
[05:32] <soundray> feryana: what file? The selections? In /tmp/selections, if you used my example command
[05:32] <lesshaste> or.. anyone got madwifi to work at all?
[05:32] <withaY> soundray:  doesn't look like it's paging much of anything.  SwapTotal: 4771264 kB; SwapFree: 4639252 kB  (thanks for your help on this, btw.)
[05:32] <ikonia> Lunar_Lamp: you tunnel from your PC to the server with internet connection - then launch your torrent client locally
[05:32] <feryana> soundray OK
[05:33] <soundray> withaY: how much total RAM is there?
[05:33] <ssl_> how to enable 'super-key'?how to use the 'xmodmap' command to enable it?Anybody help?
[05:33] <Lunar_Lamp> ikonia, do you mind if I pm you?
[05:33] <soundray> !repeat | ssl_
[05:33] <ubotu> ssl_: Don't feel ignored and repeat your question quickly; if nobody knows your answer, nobody will answer you. You can search https://help.ubuntu.com or http://wiki.ubuntu.com while you wait. Also see !patience
[05:33] <feryana> soundray 34.4 Kbs it's correct size?
[05:34] <lesshaste> I think nm-applet (network manager) must have a bug in relation to madwifi.. I reported it here https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/network-manager/+bug/87815
[05:34] <withaY> soundray: 2GB
[05:34] <ikonia> Lunar_Lamp: sorry I don't do random PM's
[05:34] <rasputnik> lesshaste: what are you trying to do? just get a wireless card up?
[05:34] <AlexC_> bye all!
[05:34] <lesshaste> rasputnik: yes...
[05:34] <Lunar_Lamp> ikonia, fair enough.
[05:34] <ronaldo> what the difference between linux-server and linux-image-server
[05:34] <soundray> feryana: yes
[05:34] <feryana> soundray I saw all the names of softwar such "amule" and other packages, and it puts install in other columm, is that right???????
[05:34] <ronaldo> s/what/what's
[05:34] <Ganjalf> wei
[05:34] <Ganjalf> ciao a tutti
[05:34] <rasputnik> i've done wpa without network-manager and with it. without seems to be more flexible
[05:34] <soundray> feryana: yes
[05:35] <metal03> Hey, I have problems with wine...  if anyone that knows about wine can help...  please jump on the #winehq channel so we can talk!!  :)
[05:35] <lesshaste> rasputnik: ok.. well.. I ran nm-applet but it doesn't seem to recognise that my wireless card exists
[05:35] <Agiofws> hello
[05:35] <Agiofws> major problem
[05:35] <Lunar_Lamp> ikonia, when tunnelling for IRC access I use this kind of command: ssh -l LOGINNAME -L LOCALPORT:irc-server-to-connect-to:PORT server-to-tunnel-through
[05:35] <lesshaste> rasputnik: I then did it manually... it sort of works but I have some questions
[05:35] <ikonia> ok
[05:35] <rasputnik> I wrote up what i did : http://number9.hellooperator.net/articles/2005/11/21/fun-with-wpa_supplicant
[05:35] <Lunar_Lamp> ikonia, is that of the right form for azureus tunnelling?
[05:35] <feryana> soundray thanks a lot... 2 years later and I still discovering amazing things on ubuntu... so that will make to install all of that on the new computer.... it will download all and made the 'apt-get' on all????????
[05:35] <soundray> withaY: and your CPU?
[05:35] <Cribbzter> could anyone PLEASE help me with the install of ndiswrapper!
[05:35] <ikonia> Lunar_Lamp: yes, but your target ill be the server with internet connection
[05:36] <ikonia> s/ill/will
[05:36] <lesshaste> rasputnik: how do you get it to run dhclient for you? http://www.pastebin.co.uk/10914 has my config files
[05:36] <Agiofws> i have installed  ubuntu server and i canot get root access  to configure my system   what IS SUDOS  default password  "even "
[05:36] <Sasa> Hi All....simple question I forgot to ask
[05:36] <Agiofws> i have tried http://www.debuntu.org/2006/04/24/34-ubuntu-default-root-password-or-the-sudo-way and this http://www.debianadmin.com/enable-and-disable-ubuntu-root-password.html
[05:36] <ikonia> Sasa: you'll find great basic introduction docs on http://www.ubuntu.com
[05:36] <Agiofws> ist not working
[05:36] <Sasa> I am trying to update Firefox, but I cannot get to the update manager from "Help" menu. I tried synaptic, but I got a million search resuls
[05:36] <soundray> feryana: no, this is only to ease the step of selecting the package you had. You still have to run a package manager -- I suggest you set the selections with dpkg like I suggested, then run synaptic and complete the installation
[05:37] <Agiofws> sudo sh not even working
[05:37] <ikonia> Agiofws: I've told you where to get the docs - http;//www.ubuntu.com and i've sent you a link detailing sudo
[05:37] <ikonia> !sudo >agiofws
[05:37] <ikonia> !root >agiofws
[05:37] <Agiofws> ikonia:  i followed those links its not working
[05:37] <lesshaste> rasputnik: thanks... ignoring the dhclient problem for a moment.. if you then want to connect to another network do you have to manually edit the config files?
[05:37] <ikonia> Agiofws: it does work
[05:38] <Lunar_Lamp> ikonia: so; ssh -l LOGINNAME -L 7777:SERVER:7777 localhost - that gives me an error that ""ssh: connect to host localhost port 22: Connection refused
[05:38] <withaY> soundray: core duo t2300 (2MB L2, 1.66Ghz, 667Mhz FSB)
[05:38] <ikonia> Lunar_Lamp: your server isn't listening on ssh ports
[05:38] <rasputnik> lesshaste: the dhclient bit is covered on that url.
[05:38] <andreseso> Agiofws: try sudo bash with your own password
[05:38] <feryana> soundray so when I run that... I will see a dpkg folder on synaptics or what, how can I difference the pacages?
[05:38] <soundray> Agiofws: it asks for your user password. There is no root password or special sudo password
[05:39] <Lunar_Lamp> ikonia, I can ssh into the server easily.  It's the localhost (i.e. the laptop i'm on at the moment) that's rejecting the ssh.
[05:39] <Sasa> I was unable to find documentation on updating firefox through GUI on ubuntu.com documentation pages
[05:39] <rasputnik> lesshaste: you can specify multiple networks in wpa_supplicant.conf and use wpa_cli to switch between them, but it's not as seamless as nm-applet
[05:39] <ikonia> Lunar_Lamp: thats strange
[05:39] <Sasa> what is the simplest way?
[05:39] <soundray> feryana: you will see in synaptic that all the packages you had on your old system will be set as "to be installed" in synaptic
[05:39] <ikonia> Sasa: update it through synaptic
[05:39] <lesshaste> rasputnik: ok.. which for some reason doesn't work
[05:39] <Agiofws> ok
[05:39] <lesshaste> rasputnik: let me try to read your instructions a bit more.. you seem to have used a third file I didn't touch
[05:40] <feryana> soundray amazing pal! Thanks a lot! That will save me thousands of hours!!!!!!!!!!!! And the configs are importable?
[05:40] <metal03> If anyone knows about wine...  please join #winehq...  I need to ask something but I don't want to use #ubuntu for it...  it's busy enough
[05:40] <ikonia> metal03: ask the people in #winehq
[05:40] <Sasa> I tried to update from there, but I cannot see version <IP_ADDRESS> all they have is *.1
[05:41] <ikonia> Sasa: that version may not be available yet
[05:41] <soundray> withaY: my CPU is definitely slower than yours, and I haven't got that speed problem. So the problem is specific to your installation. I would try setting up a new user and see if firefox is still slow when run with that user's fresh config.
[05:41] <metal03> ikonia: ya, no one is responding...  so I'm advertising here!!!  heehehe
[05:41] <ikonia> metal03: sort of defeats the object of not asking in here
[05:41] <feryana> soundray I have 6.06 and I will install 6.10... can be problems? Or better i install 6.06 in the new system?
[05:41] <rasputnik> Lunar_Lamp: are you running ssh on localhost? the command you pasted tries to connect to ssh on localhost
[05:41] <ikonia> metal03: just wait around in there
[05:41] <Lunar_Lamp> rasputnik, I know - that's what ikonia suggested.
[05:42] <ikonia> Lunar_Lamp: no its not
[05:42] <soundray> feryana: I wouldn't just copy the old configurations in, but you should use your old /etc/ for reference, so save it somewhere safe on the new machine.
[05:42] <Lunar_Lamp> ikonia, ok, I misunderstood then.
[05:42] <Sasa> ikonia: it looks it is not available from synaptic, but it is available for direct download from the ffx website
[05:42] <ikonia> Lunar_Lamp: I told you to use the same command as you did for IRC but the target is the server with direct internet connection
[05:42] <ikonia> Sasa: don't download direct - use ubuntu downloads through synaptic and wait for it to be released
[05:42] <rasputnik> Lunar_Lamp: you're trying to forward localhost:7777 to server:7777 right?
[05:42] <Sasa> gotcha
[05:42] <Sasa> thank you ikonia
[05:42] <nikin> hy
[05:42] <feryana> soundray Ok! And just the last question.  I have 6.06 in this one, I install 6.10 in the new one or better the 6.06 if I will import all?
[05:42] <soundray> feryana: 6.06 has long-term support. Some people find it a bit more stable. I personally prefer 6.10
[05:43] <Lunar_Lamp> ikonia, for irc I tunnel through the server with the direct connection - so you say I should have the same server for each?
[05:43] <soundray> feryana: but in your situation, I would stick with 6.06 for the time being.
[05:43] <ikonia> same server for each ?
[05:43] <ikonia> no
[05:43] <ikonia> I'm saying you need to tunnel to the server with direct internet connection
[05:43] <feryana> soundray I thought so.... great... thanks!
[05:44] <bulmer> whose using vmware with XP as guest os..is it okay to delete one of those *.vmdk files? all 4 of them seem to have same dates..
[05:44] <jessie^^> it looks like synaptic upgraded me to the 2.6.17-generic kernel. I need kernel headers installed but I don't see a package for them in synaptic. Any ideas?
[05:44] <nikin> i ame planning to use PSP (pascal server pages) with Apache for my webpage. Does someone know a good tutorial for that?
[05:45] <rasputnik> bulmer: no, those are the disk image
[05:45] <Antonio_Carlos_M> hi
[05:45] <bulmer> rasputnik: i should not delete them?
[05:45] <Antonio_Carlos_M> pls help me i have problems with my tv card
[05:45] <rasputnik> bulmer: only if you want to break the vm
[05:46] <bulmer> rasputnik: okay got yah
[05:46] <dhorn> Does anyone know where I can find the wall plugin for Beryl?
[05:46] <drivera90> Is it possible that VLC isn't playing this MKV file well because it's DiVX 5.2.0 as opposed to a more recent version?
[05:46] <ikonia> dhorn: join #ubuntu-effects
[05:46] <nowhere> Hi, with Ubuntu 6.06 after installning Ati drivers (two different methods) it gives a black screen. I found a suggestion to add xforcevesa with boot but it already was. What can I do?
[05:46] <zmaster> can any one help me encode a psp video at 480x272
[05:47] <nikin> zmaster: try look after mencoder.
[05:47] <zmaster> i did
[05:48] <nikin> no luck?
[05:48] <zmaster> nikin: i did but i cant find proper command line, i can convert mpg to mp4 but wheni play it on linux it says this file says its mp4 but contains avi data
[05:48] <nikin> what codec did you use?
[05:49] <Reuben> I'm about to create a new partition for common use between ubuntu and xp....should it be FAT16 or 32
[05:49] <ikonia> Reuben: there isn't really a good cross platform file system
[05:49] <nowhere> xp doesn't support fat16
[05:50] <zmaster> so can any one help me encode a psp video at 480x272
[05:50] <soundray> Reuben: it should be ext3 (if you can face installing ext2fsd in Windows to read/write it)
[05:50] <Reuben> i want read/write access from both OSs...any suggestions?
[05:50] <vox754> Reuben, still with the same question? FAT32 is the way to go. FAT16 was used 1993, I think.
[05:50] <emet> cool Bash command for the day, "apt-cache show <package name>"
[05:50] <ikonia> Reuben: there isn't really a good cross platform file system
[05:50] <emet> find all kinds of details of any package
[05:50] <Reuben> so my best bet is ext3?
[05:50] <soundray> Reuben: I would certainly say so
[05:51] <Reuben> thanks...will try it out
[05:51] <ryanakca> !dvd
[05:51] <ubotu> For playing DVD, see http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/desktopguide/C/video.html - "libdvdcss2" can be found at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/SeveasPackages
[05:51] <soundray> Reuben: journalled, well-documented, non-proprietary...
[05:51] <chavo> I got BSODs from the ext2fs driver in XP
[05:51] <ikonia> Reuben: just remember there is not really ext3 write support in windows
[05:51] <katami> Does the 64bit run any faster than the 32bit and is the hardware support the same?
[05:51] <soundray> ikonia: of course there is
[05:51] <ikonia> katami: no
[05:51] <ikonia> soundray: not really - its a bit "flakey" the driver
[05:51] <ikonia> soundray: works for some - crashes for others
[05:52] <emet> well at least there is a driver
[05:52] <Kaso> Does anyone know a good noobies' guide to shell scripting, i want to write a script to run a program once for each file in the directory

[05:52] <soundray> ikonia: the Windows driver doesn't do journalling yet, but calling it flaky is an exaggeration (Reuben)
[05:52] <katami> kk
[05:52] <emet> there is no driver for resier*/xfs/zfs/ etc on windows
[05:52] <nowhere> With Ubuntu 6.06 after installing Ati drivers (for 9600 pro - two different methods) it gives a black screen. I found a suggestion to add xforcevesa with boot but it already was. What can I do?
[05:52] <ikonia> soundray: not at all, I've seen it corrupt data and cause system instability
[05:52] <ikonia> soundray: not for me personally, but others
[05:52] <vox754> katami, install the 32-bit. The 64-bit is better for servers and advanced stuff, not for the regular dektop user.
[05:52] <chavo> theres an app called explore2fs that works on Windows also
[05:52] <soundray> ikonia: was that ext2fsd (my favoured one) or ext2ifs?
[05:53] <chavo> but better for light usage
[05:53] <Kool> hi. can someone please tell me where can i find the nUbuntu theme for fluxbox?
[05:53] <Kaso> thanks ikonia ill take a look
[05:53] <ikonia> soundray: can't remember the names, I don't use windows
[05:53] <Reuben> what is the recommended partition size for a full install of ubuntu ultimate edition?
[05:53] <emet> shall I install ntfs-3g
[05:53] <emet> is it safe?
[05:53] <ikonia> Reuben: there is no such product
[05:53] <ikonia> made buy ubuntu
[05:53] <ikonia> emet: again - unstable
[05:53] <chavo> katami, some things like flash are not available or hard to get working in 64bit  also
[05:53] <Iced> Hey everybody
[05:53] <lesshaste> rasputnik: how did you tell it was running dhclient too soon?
[05:53] <emet> ikonia, there is
[05:54] <lesshaste> rasputnik: I can't tell whether it tries to run dhclient at all
[05:54] <ikonia> emet: not made by ubuntu
[05:54] <emet> ikonia, ntfs-3g is 1.0
[05:54] <Kool> it looks like this - http://shots.osdir.com/slideshows/slideshow.php?release=691&slide=12
[05:54] <Reuben> ikonia: its an edgy (6.10) with a bunch of dd-ons like beryl
[05:54] <vox754> Reuben, what is this Ultimate Edition? Do you have any link, or proof?
[05:54] <Iced> Guys, do you mind if I ask some questions?
[05:54] <rasputnik> lesshaste: until wpa is setup, it's like the network cable isn't plugged in. it *has* to wpa associate before dhcp will work
[05:54] <ikonia> Reuben: thats not made bu ubuntu
[05:54] <SkippyX> I'm going over to a buddies house to do an install. I'm running breezy (dial-up + laziness = older distro), but I'm looking at installing Edgy on her machine.
[05:54] <ikonia> vox754: http://ubuntusoftware.info/ultimate/index.html
[05:54] <vox754> !ask > Iced
[05:54] <lesshaste> rasputnik: got you... but how did you work out that was the problem?
[05:54] <ikonia> its not ubuntu package
[05:54] <soundray> Reuben: Ubuntu (the flavor that we prefer to support here) fits into 2GB, but I tend to make a 10GB root partition and leave the rest of the drive for /home
[05:54] <SkippyX> However, seen some stuff in the forums that gives me 2nd thoughts....better off w/ dapper?
[05:55] <rasputnik> lesshaste: I could do a static ip and it worked
[05:55] <lesshaste> rasputnik: ok
[05:55] <zmaster> so can any one help me encode a psp video at 480x272
[05:55] <emet> I want Ubuntu Ultimate Shuttleworth Signature Edition
[05:55] <lesshaste> rasputnik: I reported the nm-applet problem in any case.. hopefully someone will look at it
[05:55] <zmaster> is there a way to encode pmp for psp on linux
[05:55] <Iced> First: Is easy ubuntu safe?
[05:55] <errorlevel> In what package(s) can the helvetica font and Times New Roman be found?
[05:55] <ikonia> Iced: I don't like it
[05:55] <Reuben> i know....but its the 6.10 version which supports my laptops wifi....and the extra stuff is just a bonus
[05:55] <ikonia> Reuben: just use 6.10
[05:56] <ikonia> Reuben: then you get support in here
[05:56] <Iced> ikonia: What shouldI use instead? Or should I do it manually? (I haven't even installed ubuntu yet, I'm downloading it)
[05:56] <ikonia> Iced: just install ubuntu
[05:57] <Reuben> ok...makes more sense...so a 2gb bootable partition (root) and the rest for /home ?
[05:57] <zmaster> can any one help with my psp problems please
[05:57] <ikonia> Reuben: I'd advise bigger than 2gb
[05:57] <soundray> zmaster: if anyone could, they would
[05:57] <Iced> But, what do I do to get the things on easy ubuntu without actuallu using it?
[05:57] <ikonia> Reuben: at least 10
[05:57] <vox754> Iced, install ubuntu, if it works okay, then you are lucky. If it doesn't then you start reading why. You can start reading now anyways.
[05:57] <ikonia> iced configure it
[05:58] <Reuben> saw that ...i meant minimum 2 gb right
[05:58] <soundray> zmaster: I know that it's possible to encode video for PSP, but I don't know exactly how
[05:58] <xeno1> hi! just installed Ubuntu (long time debian user) - is it possible to run 2.4 kernel on Ubuntu? (need it for 2.4 kernel modules that doesn't exists in 2.6). One problem - 2.4 doesn't support UFS, other - init gots killed (kernel too old). maybe there is some howto for this? I googled whole day, didn't found anything useful. Any ideas or maybe someone has practical experience?
[05:58] <ikonia> Reuben: at least
[05:58] <vox754> Reuben, at least 10 GB for /
[05:58] <Iced> I don't know how...
[05:58] <task0> hello all, in the quit menu i dont have shutdonw or restart, i only have hibernate! how can i fix this?!
[05:58] <ikonia> xeno1: not adviseable
[05:58] <zmaster> soundray: i know man but still good to ask, i get worried when i cant find a solution, ive tried so many different ways using ffmpeg and it all works except when i encode at 480x272, and 480x272 is what i really want
[05:58] <Reuben> ok gre
[05:58] <soundray> zmaster: if I had to do it, I would look at ffmpeg, transcode and mencoder documentation
[05:58] <skywalker> what desktop envirment do I configure my sound or does it even matter
[05:58] <ikonia> task0: its because of a theme you've applied
[05:58] <Reuben> great....will install and get back
[05:58] <ikonia> task0: or beryl
[05:58] <Iced> Another thing, I'm trying to install using install.exe
[05:58] <ikonia> Iced: don't use that
[05:59] <ikonia> Iced: use the boot cd
[05:59] <Iced> Why shouldn't I use it?
[05:59] <task0> ikonia, :S so what can i do?
[05:59] <vox754> zmaster, yours is kind of offtopic... so please be patient.
[05:59] <ikonia> Iced: its beta software and poor
[05:59] <xeno1> ikonia: yes, I know. I dont need to run 2.4 all the time. I just need sometimes to boot 2.4 to make some tests for hour-two (it's ok if system wouldn't be 100% perfectly work) and then reboot to 2.6
[05:59] <ikonia> task0: change the theme
[05:59] <ikonia> xeno1: won't work very easy
[05:59] <Iced> Does it work though?
[05:59] <soundray> Iced: it's experimental. The boot CDs are tried and tested
[05:59] <Rio> whoa! i finally installed 6.06 lts.... i kept coming in here because installation kept failing, so i was told to try to burn at a lower speed.... i ended up downloading from a european site because some of the US images got corrupt messages when i tried to install
[05:59] <ikonia> Iced: its flakey - beta software
[05:59] <Cribbzter> how do i get administrator privilegies ?
[05:59] <zmaster> vox754: alright, is there a diff irc channel which  is more specific to my problems ?
[05:59] <ikonia> Cribbzter: use sudo
[06:00] <vox754> xeno1, If you are a Debian user, then you are probably more experienced than many of us. Good luck.
[06:00] <task0> ikonia, having same problem =/
[06:00] <soundray> xeno1: it's better to do a parallel small installation of a 2.4-based distribution
[06:00] <ikonia> task0: there is a forum thread on it
[06:00] <Cribbzter> ikonia when i run synaptic it says i dont have admin how do i change that?
[06:00] <ikonia> Cribbzter: it should prompt you for a password when you run synaptic - how are you launching it, from the menu or command line
[06:01] <xeno1> soundray: yes. sounds wise... will check about this option
[06:01] <Cribbzter> ikonia menu
[06:01] <ikonia> Cribbzter: it should ask for a password
[06:01] <soundray> xeno1: much better than retrofitting ubuntu onto a kernel that it was never designed for.
[06:01] <Cribbzter> ikonia no wait u use alt+f2
[06:01] <ikonia> Cribbzter: don't - launch it from the menu
[06:01] <soundray> xeno1: I would use Debian if it was my system.
[06:02] <zmaster> is there a different IRC channel related to video enco ding problems under linux ?
[06:02] <Cribbzter> ikonia where do i findt it in the menu?
[06:02] <ikonia> Cribbzter: come on man - do SOMETHING for yourself - its under system--->administration
[06:02] <zmaster> let me rephrase that, as there probably are, ....do any of you guys know of a good irc channel related to linux video encoding
[06:02] <ikonia> zmaster: no
[06:02] <soundray> zmaster: I don't know if there is, but if there was, I'm sure they'd tell you the same thing
[06:02] <xeno1> soundray: I just deleted debian and installed ubuntu on same partition because nice X GUI in ubuntu. I'm good at kernel programming, but not very good with X configuration :-)). ok, will make some small partition for debian and will try it
[06:02] <Iced> I wan't to try install.exe first because if it doesn't work I'll just delete it and do it the CD way.
[06:03] <vox754> zmaster, I can only suggest you to visit the forums, contacting the developers and someway finding people with experience, there is also an #ubuntu-offtopic
[06:03] <ikonia> zenrox: now I know your lying
[06:03] <zmaster> kk thanks anyway
[06:03] <ikonia> Iced: just use the boot cd
[06:03] <jhasse> Why are fonts of websites in epiphany smaller than in firefox?
[06:03] <Cribbzter> ikonia well i cant find it there :-s
[06:03] <zmaster> wait i know......il look at the code the windows program i use uses, since it also uses ffmpeg and mencoder, and il modify the code for linux :)
[06:03] <oxigen> hmm, how can i find which /dev playing audio?
[06:04] <Cribbzter> ikonia oh wait sry there it was
[06:04] <soundray> zmaster: I get lots of interesting-looking hits when I search the web for "linux encoding video psp"
[06:04] <ikonia> Cribbzter: system ---> administration ---> synaptic package manager
[06:04] <oxigen> can i check this with fuser
[06:04] <Sabrotic> Greetings.What is the meaning of ''Anycast ip'' ?
[06:04] <Iced> Remember, I've never used ubuntu and I barely know much about how to work with it.
[06:04] <ikonia> oxigen: /dev/dsp ?
[06:05] <Daynah> Guys, do you know of a video recorder... whatever it's called? I'd like to make a video with my webcam... I have the drivers installed, it works in wengophone, and camorama(which only takes pictures). I just... can't... find a program. :(
[06:05] <rgl> how do I start sshd on the install cd?
[06:05] <vox754> ikonia, tough times eh?
[06:05] <zmaster> soundray: il try those and il alsol look at the code the windows program i use uses, since it also uses ffmpeg and mencoder, and il modify the code for linux :)
[06:05] <Cribbzter> ikonia ty :D
[06:05] <ikonia> Iced: all the more reason to use stable install techniques - rather than dodgy beta software
[06:05] <task0> ikonia, cant find thread on forum... maybe a little more help?
[06:05] <zmaster> soundray: thx
[06:05] <ikonia> task0: no - its on the forum, I'm not searching for you
[06:05] <oxigen> ikonia: thanks, is this the only option?
[06:05] <ikonia> rgl: you have to install it
[06:05] <ikonia> oxigen: can't remember all the devices
[06:05] <ikonia> oxigen: but its normally dsp
[06:05] <rgl> ikonia, humm, how?   Its a cd :|
[06:06] <Iced> How do you even install it with the CD? I know how to burn the ISO, but then what?
[06:06] <oxigen> ikonia: do you know how to check maybe?
[06:06] <ikonia> rgl: it runs in memory - install it like you would an install
[06:06] <ikonia> Iced: burn the cd and boot from it
[06:06] <soundray> zmaster: please let me know if you find something that works -- this would be good to have on the ubuntu wiki
[06:06] <Tron> im getting the error "no root file system is defined" when i try to install ubuntu onto a compaq smart array, can anyone help me out?
[06:06] <ikonia> Iced: read the docs on http://www.ubuntu.com
[06:06] <Iced> ikonia: Thank you
[06:06] <vox754> rgl, "sudo apt-get install <package>" it installs on RAM memory.
[06:06] <ikonia> Tron: the smart array has a different device paths for disks - you'll have to alter the root= options
[06:07] <rgl> vox754, I didn't known.  Its now installing.
[06:07] <rgl> ikonia, and vox754: thx
[06:07] <ikonia> Tron: its normally /dev/ciss/$disk
[06:07] <Tron> how do i do that
[06:07] <Tron> i think it /dev/ida/c0d0
[06:07] <zmaster> soundray: you got an email address then, il be glad to tell ya what works and doesnt
[06:07] <Iced> I should ask my cousin, he know's how do all this stuff. :P
[06:07] <ikonia> Tron: really, its normally /dev/ciss
[06:07] <drake__> Hey, Is there a wiki about 7.04 RC4 (amd64) for how to install the ATI drivers to enable 3D?
[06:07] <Tron> i'll double check
[06:08] <soundray> zmaster: you'll find me here. If not, don't worry about it.
[06:08] <Tron> i dont think /dev/ciss exists
[06:08] <vox754> Iced, better ask someone close first, then complete strangers...
[06:08] <ikonia> drake__: not yet - its still beta software
[06:08] <ikonia> Tron: I'm doing it from memory - so you could be right
[06:08] <Daynah> Iced, boot TO THE CD (as opposed to the harddrive, you'll have to go into the bios of your computer, and change the boot order) and then ubuntu will boot up and ask you if you want to install. It's easy from that point. To get into the bios is different for each omputer. I suggest as your computer juuuust starts to boot up, press all the F# buttons, and delete. Just try them all. One of them should work.
[06:08] <drake__> oh :( will the previous methods work?
[06:08] <ikonia> Tron: a quick google may give you the right path
[06:08] <Tron> so how do i change the root= option once i figgure it out
[06:08] <zmaster> soundray: kk
[06:08] <ikonia> drake__: don't know  its beta, probably not as the kenrel verion is different
[06:08] <Tron> google is how i found /dev/ida/c0d0
[06:08] <ikonia> Tron: its on the grub menu.lit
[06:09] <ikonia> lst
[06:09] <ikonia> menu.lst
[06:09] <rgl> ikonia, I still can't make my other pc boot :(
[06:09] <ikonia> and then in your fstab
[06:09] <Tron> alright, thanks
[06:09] <Tron> i'll try that out
[06:09] <ikonia> rgl: I can't help with that
[06:09] <deviantintegral> anyone here have experience with evms? Everything is working fine if I boot from an ubuntu livecd, but if I boot from the HD the volumes are detected as raw mdraid volumes instead of evms volumes
[06:09] <Iced> Let me ask one more question before I leave for lunch: When you install ubuntu does it have all your internet settings or do you have to do it manualluy?
[06:09] <ikonia> deviantintegral: the only time I've seen that is when the partition type is wrong
[06:09] <soundray> drake__: it installed the binary nvidia driver by default here, so it's probably going to do fglrx for you by default.
[06:09] <ikonia> Iced: you have to set them up
[06:10] <jessie^^> hey
[06:10] <jessie^^> I'm trying to build the latest alsa drivers from cvs
[06:10] <Iced> ikonia: Great
[06:10] <ikonia> Iced: windows doesn't do it for you
[06:10] <deviantintegral> Iced: unless you have a router, or an ISP which does DHCP. Then it should detect everything automatically.
[06:10] <jessie^^> I'm trying to build the latest alsa drivers from cvs but I keep getting an error
[06:10] <Secsefirot> hi
[06:10] <gizmo_the_great1> what has happened to Disk Manager is Edgy? No longer in System --> Administration?
[06:10] <ikonia> jessie^^: why are you building alsa
[06:10] <vox754> Iced, for most people the wired connection Ethernet is ready to go. Wireless may require configuration.
[06:11] <drake__> soundray: I am runing an ATI 1900 on 7.04 amd64 now but I am on vesa by default :(
[06:11] <deviantintegral> ikonia: hmm. Shouldn't the types just be standard linux partitions?
[06:11] <tbaur> you tell me ;)
[06:11] <jessie^^> ikonia: i need the -latest- drivers for my intel HDA
[06:11] <Iced> I have a wired ethernet connection
[06:11] <Daynah> Ikonia and Iced, it had it all set up for me... The only time it didn't set it up for me automatically was when I was installing in a wireless area with wpa (like vox754 said)
[06:11] <jessie^^> ikonia: the configure is dyign
[06:11] <loppa> whats that command for listing hardware? Thought it was lshw?
[06:11] <jessie^^> ikonia: http://pastebin.ca/371772
[06:11] <deviantintegral> loppa: lspci is also useful
[06:11] <vox754> Daynah, ok.
[06:11] <Iced> Okay, thanks everybody! See ya later!
[06:11] <ikonia> deviantintegral: no don't think so
[06:11] <vox754> gizmo_the_great1, for some reason they took it away. I still want to know why.
[06:12] <loppa> thanks.
[06:12] <soundray> drake__: oh... in that case you should probably just try out the edgy instructions and hope for the best. Make backups of changed files along the way.
[06:12] <gizmo_the_great1> vox754: how annoying
[06:12] <fazza> back
[06:12] <fazza> no im not
[06:12] <drake__> The ATi installer wont work? or is only for redhat and suse?
[06:12] <fazza> bye everyone
[06:12] <soundray> drake__: please go to #ubuntu+1 if you have more feisty questions btw.
[06:12] <ikonia> jessie^^: the headers are incompatible
[06:12] <vox754> gizmo_the_great1, not that rally a problem, as long as you care to learn a bit how to mount things with the terminal.
[06:13] <drake__> ok, thanks!
[06:13] <deviantintegral> ikonia: according to fdisk, all of the partitions are Id 83 and System 'Linux'
[06:13] <ikonia> deviantintegral: then there is no way mdadm should be able to pick them up
[06:13] <jessie^^> ikonia: what do i need to do to make them compatible?
[06:13] <gizmo_the_great1> vox754: indeed - I'm Ok with mounting etc but sometimes, when things are not working as expected, it's nice to have it. I use gparted sometimes too - just unsure why they removed it
[06:13] <ikonia> jessie^^: you can't
[06:13] <jessie^^> ikonia: I have the kernel headers package for my kernel installed
[06:13] <ikonia> jessie^^: they are incompatible
[06:13] <gizmo_the_great1> When a USB Drive is plugged in it is auto mounted at media/USB_DRIVE (in my case). However, where would I find it's physical listing, i.e. /dev/???
[06:13] <jessie^^> ikonia: how so?
[06:13] <ikonia> jessie^^: because they are
[06:14] <soundray> gizmo_the_great1: check with 'mount | grep USB_DRIVE'
[06:14] <gb__> hi there all
[06:14] <deviantintegral> ikonia: yeah, I was thinking that the md script in the initramfs was causing problems, but removing it didn't change anything
[06:14] <vox754> gizmo_the_great1, I used SUSE and was so used to mounting graphically that I really didn't understand anything. Now I'm using Ubuntu and is great.
[06:14] <ikonia> deviantintegral: if the partitions are not "fd" then they are not visible to mdadm
[06:14] <gizmo_the_great1> soundray: n eat - I need to memorise that one!! Thanks
[06:15] <ikonia> deviantintegral: must be something else
[06:15] <gizmo_the_great1> vox754: agreed. Ubuntu rocks!
[06:15] <gb__> helllo all :)
[06:15] <ikonia> gb__: we say you the first time you said hi
[06:15] <deviantintegral> ikonia: well that is strange as mdadm can see them (--detail shows appropriate info)
[06:15] <soundray> gizmo_the_great1: in that case, you will find 'mount' by itself educational, too ;)
[06:15] <Mena> Does any one know a good program to edit video files
[06:15] <ikonia> deviantintegral: that is strange
[06:16] <vox754> gizmo_the_great1, also take a look at "/etc/fstab" and "/etc/mtab" the second file list the current mounted filesystems.
[06:16] <gb__> ikonia: sorry did not see it
[06:16] <Mena> except Kino~_~
[06:16] <ikonia> gb__: we didn't say anything to you, we are waiting for your question
[06:16] <soundray> Mena: I've heard that cinelerra is good
[06:16] <gizmo_the_great1> vox754: I already knew about fstab - use it a lot - but did not know about mtab. V useful - thanks
[06:16] <gb__> no question here for now :)
[06:16] <vox754> !ask > gb__
[06:17] <gb__> just came to learn ubuntu
[06:17] <Mena> But its not supported right??
[06:17] <deviantintegral> ikonia: I think I might try forcing the initramfs to drop to a shell so I can examine things before things go to init.d scripts. As a stranger thing I noticed is that while initramfs sees /dev/evms/root (and mounts it), when I'm dropped to a shell b/c fsck can't find /media /root is gone
[06:17] <nixnoob> can someone link me a good guide to vnc tunneling through ssh/
[06:17] <piratepete> anyone installed Ubuntu on a macbook pro?
[06:17] <ikonia> deviantintegral: sounds a good call
[06:17] <ikonia> piratepete: just ask the question
[06:17] <soundray> Mena: there isn't a package in the repositories, if that's what you mean
[06:17] <deviantintegral> nixnoob: http://wiki.cs-club.org/KokaneeOffCampus
[06:17] <Mena> soundray , yes
[06:17] <piratepete> does Ubuntu work on a macbook pro?
[06:18] <wnoronha> join #drupal-support
[06:18] <nixnoob> deviantintegral thanks
[06:18] <ikonia> piratepete: yes
[06:18] <loppa> how do i tell which driver my wlan needs?
[06:18] <HyperDevil> i want to make a mirror and contribute to ubuntu: the wiki says: rsync://releases.ubuntu.com/releases/... but that command does not work to rsync the releases
[06:18] <ikonia> loppa: get the name of the hardware and google it
[06:18] <loppa> on it.
[06:18] <Tron> ikonia, where would menu.lst for grub be, looked in /boot/grub but theres no grub folder
[06:18] <ikonia> HyperDevil: id does work
[06:18] <vox754> piratepete, depends on the processor, video card, controllers, drivers, depends on many things. Details?
[06:18] <ikonia> Tron: then there is something very wrong
[06:18] <piratepete> how much disk space on the macbook would you partition for?
[06:18] <gizmo_the_great1> vox754: although, having said that, the content of mtab is the same as the stdout of 'mount', but nice to know the file is there
[06:18] <ikonia> piratepete: 10 gig home

[06:19] <Tron> the installation doesnt even start
[06:19] <piratepete> ikonia: thanls
[06:19] <ikonia> Tron: you may need to drop in a driver for the smart arrays - as its 3rd party
[06:19] <gb__> ikonia:  later
[06:19] <Mena> soundray, ok :)
[06:19] <Tron> i get "no root file system is defined" during installation
[06:19] <HyperDevil> i want to make a mirror and contribute to ubuntu: the wiki says: rsync://releases.ubuntu.com/releases/... but that command does not work to rsync the releases

[06:19] <gizmo_the_great1> soundray: thanks for your help - helpful as always. vox754: thanks for your help too :-) Bye for now

[06:23] <ikonia> !ati >nowhere
[06:23] <deviantintegral> nowhere: I have a 9800pro all I did was install fglrx
[06:23] <deviantintegral> it was in the universe I think

[06:24] <kkerwin> Hi. I'm trying to install kqemu as per the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WindowsXPUnderQemuHowTo. No modules are being built during the first step: "Installing Windows in QEmu with Feisty 7.04". What step am I missing?
[06:24] <vox754> mzuverink, what is that?
[06:24] <nowhere> thanks ikonia, reading it
[06:24] <comradec> is there a power option somewhere that can override both xset dpms, xorg.conf and xscreensaver for turning off the monitor?
[06:25] <vox754> kkerwin, don't use Feisty 7.04, it is not stable.
[06:25] <kkerwin> vox754: Understood. I just grabbed the qemu packages from that repository, and then immediately removed that repository from my sources.list
[06:25] <mzuverink> vox754, thats a scan modem output to determine type of modem in my lappy
[06:25] <Tron> ikonia, all i can find is red hat drivers on the hp website
[06:26] <soundray> comradec: yes, the power button on your monitor,,,
[06:26] <nowhere> ikonia: But do you think there is any way to get pass the black screen at start? Or will I have to reinstall again?
[06:26] <ikonia> Tron: yeah - doesn't look like its supported
[06:26] <House> can somene tell me how to use ndis wrapper

[06:26] <House> i got the driver for my broadcom wirless chip
[06:27] <comradec> I think there is some kind of acpi setting or something somewhere that is overriding it

[06:28] <lucas_> does any one knows which package should I install to get the makeobj command
[06:28] <ikonia> lucas_: thats not a command that part of a gc build process
[06:28] <GionnyBoss> how can I add an application in the GNOME application menu? I add it, but it seems not to work... I can't see the icon
[06:29] <lucas_> ikonia:  ok if i miss that it means that i have to set up build-essential
[06:29] <ikonia> lucas_: there is nothing to "setup" just install build-essentials
[06:30] <lucas_> it's weird it's already installed
[06:30] <soundray> comradec: when you say ot'
[06:30] <soundray> comradec: when you say it's ACPI related...
[06:30] <ikonia> lucas_: your build is probably failing and not makine the makeobj command
[06:30] <soundray> comradec: do you think it's a buggy DSDT?

[06:31] <Kresjah_laptop> Anyone who can tell me how to set up my machine as a gateway server? I've followed this guide ( http://www.yolinux.com/TUTORIALS/LinuxTutorialIptablesNetworkGateway.html ), using example 2, but the very last line to write into the terminal fails with a SIOCADDRT: Network is unreachable.
[06:31] <fotofl1> hi everyone... im using the version of Gaim that came with ubuntu, but apperntly its an old beta
[06:31] <fotofl1> how do i get the newest beta?
[06:31] <soundray> ltbarcly: I don't think they are. Are you looking for cabextract?
[06:32] <ikonia> Kresjah_laptop: your network is not setup
[06:32] <soundray> !cabextract | ltbarcly
[06:32] <ubotu> ltbarcly: cabextract: a program to extract Microsoft Cabinet files. In component universe, is optional. Version 1.1-1 (edgy), package size 43 kB, installed size 144 kB
[06:32] <ikonia> fotofl1: you use whats in the ubuntu repo's
[06:32] <fotofl1> ikonia: how do i know which beta that is?
[06:32] <ikonia> fotofl1: just update it to the latest in the ubuntu repo - then click "version" on it

[06:33] <comradec> soundray, I think it has to do with with the blank, suspend, off values, I read in some forum acpi can load these values somewhere from one of it's configs or something at boot, so it would always override xset, xscreensaver, or xorg.conf
[06:33] <fotofl1> ikonia: apt-get update gaim?
[06:34] <fab5freddy> does anybody have experience install a logitech quickcam in ubuntu dapper?
[06:34] <ikonia> fotofl1: upgrade
[06:34] <fotofl1> k
[06:34] <Kresjah_laptop> ikonia: I can surf the net from the gateway server, I can ping the other machines in theinternal network (it has two network cards: One wireless with internet connection, one wired with connection to the rest of the machines here downstairs). I can hardly believe that "my network isn't setup". Everything else from that guide has been done with success too
[06:34] <soundray> comradec: hm, I've never heard that... ACPI related settings are mostly done from files in /etc/default
[06:34] <Jerr|sd> I have no idea how to get Ubuntu to be able to recognize a hardware SATA RAID

[06:36] <vox754> comradec, do you mean Power managment on Ststem > Preferences
[06:36] <mzuverink> comradec,  this will solve you problem http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/7512/
[06:36] <Kresjah_laptop> ikonia: Well, the two cards are working on seperate subnets. I'm trying to set up routing in-between them. And I'm trying to find a way to solve it, not a human-readable translation of the error :\
[06:36] <roxxy> anybody know how to setup a matrox dual head vga pci card?
[06:36] <Jerr|sd> because I set up the RAID with the nvidia RAID thing (BIOS)
[06:36] <fab5freddy> ubotu: i have the instructions, but during the installation script i am being asked for "path to yuor kernel source or headers" how do i find this?
[06:36] <ltbarcly> roxxy: the drivers with X won't work
[06:36] <ikonia> Jerr|sd: that support is weak

[06:37] <mzuverink> comradec, the now power management just turns off acpi and apm, that good for only when its pluged into the wall thoug, the apm and acpi will still be fubar'd when running on batter
[06:37] <NevroPus> anyone knows of some player/addon in ubuntu so that I can play .rmvb files?

[06:38] <francois> hey, i need to create a link from a non-admin user's desktop to another folder on a  user (admin) desktop, how do i do that ?
[06:38] <ikonia> francois the user won't have permission
[06:38] <soundray> fab5freddy: if you install the 'linux-headers' package, your kernel headers end up in a directory under /usr/src

[06:38] <ikonia> francoisno
[06:38] <ikonia> francois no
[06:38] <mzuverink> comradec, sorry about poor english

[06:39] <luco> roxxy: mgapdesk to be found in the repos
[06:39] <Jerr|sd> funny, I always thought linux would have really good RAID support, seeing that its ideal for servers
[06:40] <roxxy> thanks luco
[06:40] <hwdyki> which scheduler does the generic kernel use?
[06:40] <royel> I need to install glibc an glibc-dev anyone know the correct name for those using apt-get
[06:40] <soundray> Jerr|sd: Linux has excellent software RAID support
[06:40] <luco> roxxy: don't remember exactly, but you need, if I remember well, 'hal' driver
[06:40] <ikonia> Jerr|sd: it has great software and great true hardware raid support - just not crappy windows fake raid support
[06:40] <NevroPus> anyone knows of some player/addon in ubuntu so that I can play .rmvb files?
[06:40] <soundray> Jerr|sd: when it comes to hardware RAID, Linux has to rely on the manufacturer to either provide a driver, or specifications so that a driver can be written
[06:40] <vox754> royel, "aptitude search glibc"
[06:41] <hwdyki> hello....

[06:41] <Jerr|sd> soundray: you know anything about nvidia's RAID drivers?
[06:41] <soundray> Jerr|sd: now it may well be that yours is supported, but you'd have to find out from nvidia or from google
[06:41] <soundray> Jerr|sd: no, sorry
[06:41] <ikonia> Jerr|sd: I'd told you - the support is poor
[06:42] <Mr`Me> this compaq smart array issue is so irritating
[06:42] <Mr`Me> i cant even get ubunto installed
[06:42] <ikonia> Mr`Me: because hte driver isn't available
[06:42] <Mr`Me> cpqarray is the right driver
[06:42] <Mr`Me> and its loaded
[06:42] <Mr`Me> just the kernel doesnt work with it

[06:42] <Mr`Me> i need the 2.4 kernel apparently

[06:51] <ikonia> Timw: ok - so try it out - not come in here asking people ot fix it for you
[06:51] <ikonia> evian: edit menu.lst
[06:51] <varsendaggr> building software is for the begginer
[06:51] <Timw> ikonia: i have tried walking but in order to play nsv files i had to do all this
[06:51] <ikonia> varsendaggr: really ?
[06:51] <finalbeta> evian: /boot/grub/menu.lst or something
[06:51] <soundray> Timw: you will want to use 'sudo' for the last installation step
[06:51] <ikonia> varsendaggr: I disagree
[06:51] <soundray> !sudo > Timw
[06:51] <gravemind> how do I set up static IP addresses?
[06:51] <evian> thanks folks!
[06:51] <Sapristi> Hiya folks. I'm trying to set up a remote X-connection to my HTPC _which is running in terminal mode_. I've had little luck using the guide at post #7 at http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/showthread.php?t=523864 (maybe because the vncviewer under Ubuntu seems to be buggy).  Could anybody help me out a little bit here?
[06:51] <varsendaggr> how do you think we got software...
[06:51] <ikonia> gravemind: use the network manager from the system--->administration menu
[06:52] <elekis> hi all
[06:52] <ikonia> varsendaggr: install it from pre-compiled packages built by people who understand what they are typing
[06:52] <soundray> gravemind: System-Administration-Networking-Properties
[06:52] <piotrek> ikonia very thx ;)
[06:52] <gravemind> soundray, ikonia, cool, I see it
[06:52] <sproingie> hm.. does the fglrx driver work with an X1950?
[06:52] <Timw> all i had to do was put sudo in front of it
[06:52] <SpacePuppy> Sapristi: if it's running in terminal mode (ie xserver is not running) then what xserver are you trying to connect to?
[06:52] <Timw> nice
[06:52] <ikonia> gravemind: see what ?
[06:53] <Timw> i am figuring this out more than i thought
[06:53] <ikonia> the network tool
[06:53] <gravemind> soundray, ikonia, what do I put for the IP, and subnet addresses
[06:53] <varsendaggr> ikonia, i build packages before i even knew how to apt-get.....    apt-get is great....   but if someone is wanting to build packages   i think they should.
[06:53] <Timw> so in order to get access just put sudo
[06:53] <ikonia> varsendaggr: I think they should if they know the basics
[06:53] <soundray> Timw: yes, that's the idea. The trouble with your approach is that mplayer will now be hard to update or remove.
[06:53] <ikonia> gravemind: that menu should be quite self explanitory
[06:53] <Sapristi> spacepuppy: I got the impression that running a xserver at the remote computer is not necessary (see the link), as long as there is a server running on the client. It happens over vnc, u c
[06:53] <varsendaggr> ikonia, it also helps them understand thier system   which i really great
[06:53] <Timw> i know
[06:54] <ikonia> varsendaggr: I don't think it does
[06:54] <soundray> Timw: that's why people here would rather support package installations than compiling software
[06:54] <ikonia> varsendaggr: blindly typing commands they have no idea about
[06:54] <metal03> Hey, I'm still fairly new to Linux and I'm trying to update wine...  can anyone help?
[06:54] <Timw> soundray: but hopefully i don't need to update or remove it if it plays the files i need to, thanks a bunch
[06:54] <fredl> whoah, xbgmsharp rockz :)
[06:54] <miku> I have found another usb wifi by Sitecom WL-142. is this one at least compatible?
[06:54] <gravemind> ikonia: I don't know which to put. Should I go to ifconfig and see what I'm using now, or something like that?
[06:54] <ikonia> Timw: just be aware it may break all your other audio visual apps
[06:54] <betatux> metal03, what's the problem ?
[06:54] <ikonia> gravemind: how can you not know what to put - you want to put a static ip in - so put the ip in
[06:55] <metal03> betatux : I have an older version of wine and I need to update it...  how?
[06:55] <varsendaggr> well   blindly tyoing commands    isn't exactly building software
[06:55] <acid_phyre> anyone know where there is a fast download site of the ubuntu dvd?
[06:55] <ikonia> varsendaggr: exactly
[06:55] <betatux> metal03, did you install wine from source or from repository ?
[06:55] <ikonia> acid_phyre: try the mirrors
[06:55] <elekis> hi all
[06:55] <varsendaggr> who want's to build software?
[06:55] <gravemind> ikonia: I don't know which address to use, that's the thing. I know that it's something like 192.168.1.x but I don't know what the last number should be
[06:55] <varsendaggr> i'll   help them
[06:55] <acid_phyre> none of them can even pull 100kb for me
[06:56] <acid_phyre> its weird
[06:56] <ikonia> gravemind: then why do you want a static ip addres
[06:56] <x11fontproblem> Hi guys, in Edgy are X11 fonts normally in /usr/share/X11/fonts?
[06:56] <gravemind> ikonia: for port forwarding for a game
[06:56] <miku> I have found another usb wifi by Sitecom WL-142. is this one at least compatible?
[06:56] <skywalker> I realy need some help with my sound problem I looked on the fourm and this is my sound card this person is haveing thesame problem and no one replyed to his post>http://ubuntuforums.org/tags/index.php/cs4611/
[06:56] <metal03> Betatux : Not sure...  All I know is I had trouble with installing it cause I'm running an Edgy64...
[06:56] <vox754> acid_phyre, torrent? 100 seeds...
[06:56] <soundray> !fonts | x11fontproblem
[06:56] <ikonia> gravemind: then you want a dhcp address from your router
[06:56] <ubotu> x11fontproblem: Font installation basics here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FontInstallHowto - No fonts in Flash? Install "msttcorefonts" (from !Multiverse), "gsfonts", and "gsfonts-x11". No fonts in MPlayer? see !MPlayer
[06:56] <metal03> Batatux : been a while!
[06:56] <choongii> hello. looking for a gnome app (maybe frontend) to compress .wav to .ogg. any ideas?
[06:56] <fredl> gravemind, you might want to install the UPNP daemon for gameport forwarding.
[06:56] <zachalekos> anybody knows a guide to get hibernate working in ubuntu?
[06:56] <soundray> oops, sorry ompaul. It's a bad habit, I'll work on it.
[06:57] <ikonia> soundray: tough to break !
[06:57] <Sapristi> Nobody running vnc here? Bummer!
[06:57] <metal03> Betatux : Plus, back then I had NO IDEA what I was doing...   hehehe!
[06:57] <fredl> Sapristi, I have, why what's your problem?
[06:57] <strobedream> hey guys
[06:57] <strobedream> I managed to do something really annoying
[06:57] <strobedream> ....
[06:57] <vox754> zachalekos, you on laptop?
[06:57] <ikonia> strobedream: just ask
[06:57] <zachalekos> yep
[06:58] <fredl> strobedream, we all do every now and again :P
[06:58] <betatux> metal03 , if you do : dpkg -l | grep wine , is there a notice about wine or not ? if not , you've installed wine from source and you probably want to uninstall it by running 'make uninstall' in the wine source directory
[06:58] <strobedream> I put every stupid package in my repository on hold
[06:58] <fredl> mwuhaha
[06:58] <ikonia> on hold ?
[06:58] <soundray> Sapristi: can you rephrase your question please
[06:58] <strobedream> well in hold status
[06:58] <fredl> so you're not getting many updates huh? :)
[06:58] <strobedream> and now when I do a dist-upgrade it laughs at me
[06:58] <miku> Sitecom WL-142 is compatible?
[06:58] <strobedream> none
[06:59] <strobedream> any mass 'unhold' commands
[06:59] <Sapristi> fredl: I'm trying to open a remote connection to my HTPC which is running in terminal mode (and that's the way I want it). I tried to set up the connection as stated in post #7 http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/showthread.php?t=523864, but it fails in many ways - maybe cuz the vncserver under ubuntu seems to be buggy (according to various sources)
[06:59] <gravemind> DHCP gives different ip addresses each time you connect to it, I need one that will always stay the same
[06:59] <gravemind> ifconfig says I'm using this: <IP_ADDRESS>: so that's what I'm going to put in the IP field, k?
[06:59] <metal03> Betatux : I get a message : "ii  wine      0.9.28-1         Package created with checkinstall 1.6.0"
[06:59] <strobedream> so has anyone done this?
[06:59] <Sapristi> My question is, how should I go about to open the vnc-connection to the computer running in terminal mode. Or, actually, any remote desktop will do just fine.
[06:59] <fredl> Sapristi, wait, is the vnc server the same as enabling the remote desktop?
[07:00] <strobedream> I read through the man pages and cant find anything
[07:00] <vox754> zachalekos, I can't do much for you. All I've heard is it sometimes just don't work, other times you need to add some line like resume=<your swap device> to the kernel line to make it work.
[07:00] <fredl> gravemind, you want UPNP on your router box, is that a Linux box, your router?
[07:00] <Sapristi> fredl: Not necessarily. They involve different software/servers.
[07:00] <betatux> metal03, ok , that's good , means it's not installed from source , uninstall it first by running : sudo apt-get remove wine
[07:00] <fredl> Sapristi, oh okay in that case I might be mistaken. I can do remote desktop using vncviewer just fine.
[07:00] <Sapristi> I have succeeded in opening a remote desktop, but, the remote computer (the server) is running in terminal mode.
[07:01] <zachalekos> alright, thanks  a lot
[07:01] <nixnoob> hey guys i have a big problem
[07:01] <fredl> Sapristi, ah ok, well in that case I'm clueless as I've never done that before.
[07:01] <skywalker> anyone in here with a sound problem besides me?
[07:01] <ccatalan> hello
[07:01] <nixnoob> my .Xauthority file is missing...
[07:01] <Sapristi> fredl: OK, thx anyway!
[07:01] <fredl> I cant hear you skywalker.
[07:01] <fredl> n/p Sapristi.
[07:01] <vox754> miku, that is what a USB wireless?
[07:01] <gravemind> fredl: the game I'm using is old, and doesn't use UPNP,
[07:01] <gravemind> fredl: I think it's working now
[07:02] <hfy> anyone for sex
[07:02] <hfy> ?
[07:02] <ccatalan> hello find channel kubuntu in spanish
[07:02] <metal03> Betatux : done!
[07:02] <strobedream> hfy: yeah lets all have ubuntu sex
[07:02] <facugaich> !es | ccatalan
[07:02] <ubotu> ccatalan: Si busca ayuda en Espaol por favor entre en los canales #ubuntu-es, #kubuntu-es o #edubuntu-es, all obtendr mas ayuda.
[07:02] <betatux> metal03, oke , now install it again throught apt-get : sudo apt-get install wine

[07:02] <skywalker> you can read my text and that is good enof fredl
[07:02] <strobedream> hfy: I would hope you are.
[07:02] <soundray> Sapristi: just installing vncserver here to remind myself...
[07:02] <kelsin> Sapristi: if you're trying to use a server remotely with no gui, you should just ssh into the box, google ssh
[07:03] <vox754> skywalker, have you been here before with this same problem?
[07:03] <betatux> hfy, join the gangbang :P
[07:03] <skywalker> yes
[07:03] <Sapristi> kelsin: Nope, I specifically want a remote desktop! I know how to ssh into the box.
[07:03] <skywalker> I dont everything
[07:03] <skywalker> done*
[07:03] <Sapristi> soundray: Thx for bothering!
[07:03] <sproingie> argh.  has anyone gotten even 2d accelleration working with an ATI X1950?
[07:03] <skywalker> what am I not doing
[07:04] <skywalker> their is no sndconfig
[07:04] <skywalker> sudo
[07:04] <hfy> x1950 d best
[07:04] <metal03> Betatux : huh oh!!  http://www.pastebin.ca/371829
[07:04] <skywalker> I used everything and styll no sound
[07:04] <kelsin> Sapristi: http://packages.ubuntu.com/edgy/x11/linuxvnc , try looking at that package? Supposed to be a terminal vnc server
[07:04] <tabber> hu, how can i check whether im running 6.06 or 6.10?
[07:04] <metal03> Betatux : I'm running a 64 bit Edgy...  it feels like the problem I had b4
[07:04] <soundray> Sapristi: when you start vncserver, it says something like "New 'X' desktop is hostname:1". So on the client, you do 'vncviewer hostname:1'
[07:04] <kelsin> Sapristi: or do you want a GUI remote desktop off of the server?
[07:04] <vox754> skywalker, bad luck. Laptop? PC? cards?
[07:04] <fredl> *giggle* sometimes the help on here gets funny... 'google ssh' ???
[07:04] <hfy> do you think if i run call of duty on ubuntu i will have more fps??
[07:05] <Sapristi> kelsin: Exactly, thank you!
[07:05] <dvdjack> hi all

[07:09] <soundray> Sapristi: look at $HOME/.vnc/hostname:1.log to find out why
[07:09] <strobedream> there are so many different ways to set things up and various system calls I cant tell you
[07:09] <Agiofws> hey does apt-get in ubuntu use the deb repository ?

[07:10] <dvdjack> txt
[07:10] <vox754> skywalker, I read your thread. You could try going back to the other Linux and find out which drivers it was using.
[07:10] <Sapristi> soundray: could not open default font 'fixed
[07:10] <Agiofws> is there gpm for  UBNUTU ?
[07:10] <skywalker> I dident post that
[07:10] <infidel> dvdjack, are you trying to import bookmarks?
[07:10] <dvdjack> yes
[07:10] <dvdjack> but is not work
[07:10] <soundray> Agiofws: please read the private message from ubotu
[07:10] <dvdjack> i dont found any thing in book
[07:10] <hfy> by how much more fps? approx
[07:10] <dvdjack> marks
[07:10] <skywalker> what do you mean other Linux?
[07:11] <skywalker> vox754
[07:11] <Agiofws> soundray:  how do i apt-get it ?
[07:11] <vox754> skywalker, well, mmm, you said you tried other Linux distros?
[07:11] <Agiofws> its does not display in apt-cache search
[07:11] <soundray> Sapristi: I think you have to setup some minimal X stuff to have the fonts etc.
[07:11] <skywalker> yes but their old
[07:11] <soundray> !repos > Agiofws
[07:11] <strobedream> hfy: I think I got like 10 fps
[07:11] <sudoroot> infidel did u check my pastebin yet?
[07:11] <infidel> sudoroot,  looking
[07:11] <ikonia> Agiofws: check all the repos
[07:11] <Sapristi> soundray: At the moment I'm experimenting with the server running X (Gnome)
[07:12] <Sapristi> soudnray: So everything should be peachy...
[07:12] <gravemind> vox754, I had a problem with my sound not being detected too - has he tried searching google for linux drivers for his particular card?
[07:12] <sudoroot> thanx
[07:12] <skywalker> gravemind I will try that now thanks
[07:12] <vox754> skywalker, It doesn't matter. It probably is possible to import the drivers, it is open source what makes this possible
[07:12] <miku> Can I use NdisWrapper to connect my laptop with a sitecom wl-142?
[07:12] <Agiofws> i did
[07:12] <dvdjack> infidel what i can do
[07:12] <ikonia> miku: you told me the card wasn't supported
[07:12] <Agiofws> apt-cache search gpm
[07:12] <ikonia> Agiofws: then it may not exist
[07:12] <Agiofws> ikonia:
[07:12] <strobedream> hfy: but I didn't spend a lot of time setting things up nicely.
[07:12] <vox754> gravemind, I don't know but I recall him being around here for over a month.
[07:13] <miku> do you know NdisWrapper?
[07:13] <ikonia> Agiofws: do you have all the repo's enabled
[07:13] <ikonia> miku: only a little as I never use it
[07:13] <miku> works in ubuntu?
[07:13] <Agiofws> so stupid ubuntu does not have gpm ?
[07:13] <skywalker> you got me confused with someone els
[07:13] <gravemind> skywalker: good luck: I'm not sure how I ended up installing my sound, but at least I have it
[07:13] <ikonia> Agiofws: have you enabled all the repo's
[07:13] <skywalker> I just install ubuntu
[07:13] <soundray> Agiofws: yes, it does. Ubotu just told you so
[07:13] <soundray> Agiofws: "In component universe, is optional"
[07:13] <skywalker> Iam new here
[07:13] <vox754> miku, ndiswrapper works, but I couldn't find your card on the List. Probably you need to give the chipset info.
[07:13] <Agiofws> ikonia:  apt-get upgrade ?
[07:13] <skywalker> man
[07:13] <ikonia> Agiofws: no enable all the repos
[07:14] <Agiofws> how ?
[07:14] <ikonia> Agiofws: if you read the docs as I've told you 10 times you'd know
[07:14] <ikonia> its not "stupid ubuntu" its "lazy user can't be bothered to read"
[07:14] <vox754> !who > skywalker
[07:14] <soundray> Agiofws: we cannot spoon-feed you everything.
[07:14] <gravemind> vox754: when the kernel upgraded to -11, I couldn't hear anything, so now I just boot into -10 because the sound is installed there and I don't know how to install it
[07:14] <bruenig> Agiofws, pastebin the output of "cat /etc/apt/sources.list"
[07:14] <DaveTarmac> I'm having some serious trouble getting my Ubuntu box accessing the internet through a D-Link DWL-G520 WLAN card. Can anyone help?
[07:14] <ikonia> soundray: and he's got the balls to say ubuntu is "stupid"
[07:14] <bruenig> !pastebin
[07:14] <ubotu> pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (be sure to give the URL of your paste - see also the #ubuntu channel topic)
[07:15] <soundray> bruenig: please don't undermine our efforts to make this punter do his homework
[07:15] <bruenig> ok
[07:15] <vox754> gravemind, the same thing happened to me with ndiswrapper, so I just recompiled. In your case I guess you may somehow reinstall.
[07:15] <bruenig> read the docs dammit
[07:15] <lsutiger> hey peeps
[07:15] <Agiofws> whats it called

[07:16] <fotoflo> what is Nautilus sendto and how do i disable it?
[07:16] <vox754> Agiofws, what is that you wanted? gdm?
[07:16] <ikonia> Agiofws: if you'd done what I asked earlier I'd be more willing to help

[07:16] <lsutiger> I booted from a ubuntu cd, but my wirless does not work.

[07:16] <lsutiger> suggestions?
[07:16] <miku> c' qualche italiano che pu aiutarmi ?
[07:16] <ikonia> but your lazy approach makes me not want to spoon feed you

[07:16] <nixnoob> hey whenever i run something that needs root permissions i get the error  Unable to copy the user's Xauthorization file anyone know how to fix?
[07:16] <gravemind> vox754: if you were able to install something once but you don't know how you did, is there a way to reverse engineer and find out how you installed it?
[07:16] <lsutiger> que?
[07:16] <ricky_ds> Hi everybody. I'm using dapper and just read that firefox 1.5 won't get any security updates beyond April 2007. Since Dapper is a LTS, are we finally going to see firefox 2.0 in the repositories??
[07:16] <ikonia> ricky_ds: don't know
[07:16] <ikonia> ask in the development channel
[07:17] <vox754> soundray, okay. I was just curious. It's yours.
[07:17] <dvdjack> another prpbelm
[07:17] <bruenig> ricky_ds, probably not, you can install it yourself though, it is pretty easy
[07:17] <dvdjack> how i can play movie avi
[07:17] <dbr> Are the kernic-panic messages logged anywhere?
[07:17] <vox754> gravemind, I don't think so. Maybe there is.
[07:17] <ikonia> bruenig: not without breaking the repo dependencies
[07:17] <wiz> when setting up ndiswrapper, after you've setup the driver with ndiswrapper -i driver.inf, and ndiswrapper -l shows driver and hardware present, is modprobe ndiswrapper not enough? It's telling me invalid argument
[07:17] <bruenig> dvdjack, avi is a container, it could have many different formats, you probably need some codecs

[07:17] <keniaz> Hi all...I am newby...what is ubuntu?
[07:18] <ikonia> !goodbotuse >bruenig
[07:18] <ricky_ds> bruenig: I'm not thinking of myself but on people like my dad or whoever just trust the update mechanism
[07:18] <bruenig> ikonia, no you install it /opt and redirect the /usr/bin/firefox symlink
[07:18] <nixnoob> dvdjack goto synaptic and remove totem player and replace it with totem -xine
[07:18] <ikonia> bruenig: no - but other apps will not link against it
[07:18] <soundray> vox754: really, this guy has been repeating very basic questions that have been answered several times, then goes on to insult our favourite OS...
[07:18] <TLP-CentDuo> ....can someone help me get my dvds playing on linux?
[07:18] <bruenig> why do they have | username if you aren't supposed to use it
[07:18] <TLP-CentDuo> i can play all css encrypted dvds
[07:18] <TLP-CentDuo> but not finalfantasy 7 advent children
[07:18] <vox754> soundray, yep. I kind of missed your conversation because I was reading someone else.
[07:18] <nixnoob>  hey whenever i run something that needs root permissions i get the error  Unable to copy the user's Xauthorization file anyone know how to fix?
[07:19] <ikonia> nixnoob: change the permissions on it
[07:19] <ikonia> nixnoob: its in the users home dir with a . infront of it
[07:19] <bruenig> ikonia, what do you mean other apps won't link against it
[07:19] <soundray> bruenig: I use 'punter' as a very mildly disparaging synonym of 'customer' ;)
[07:19] <ikonia> bruenig: so launching say a video file from within it - won't launch player
[07:19] <HymnToLife> ikonia, root can't run GUI apps (by default)
[07:19] <nixnoob> ikonia chmod +wrx .Xauthority?
[07:19] <HymnToLife> run them as yourself with gksudo
[07:19] <ikonia> HymnToLife: yup
[07:19] <katami> Yeah
[07:19] <Phasor> I just want to say a big thank you to everyone who has helped me in this chatroom. I would never have got Ubuntu 6.10 installed if it wasn't for you. Thanks!
[07:19] <TLP-CentDuo> ....i cant get final fantasy 7 advent children to play. (not encrypted with css-its encrypted with arcoss (sony protection))
[07:19] <bruenig> ikonia, you need to link over the plugins of course
[07:19] <katami> Unbuntu doesn't like my pc
[07:19] <rat1101>  /whois rat1101
[07:19] <gravemind> nixnoob: did you put sudo in front of it?
[07:20] <TLP-CentDuo> can someone please help
[07:20] <ikonia> bruenig: how about just stick with the ubuntu supported process
[07:20] <katami> It's at step 2 of 6 installing and it froze at setting the time
[07:20] <rat1101> oops
[07:20] <nixnoob> hang on
[07:20] <HymnToLife> ikonia, as yourself, gksudo gedit
[07:20] <skywalker> Iam doing something wrong
[07:20] <HymnToLife> or anything else of course
[07:20] <nixnoob> it says no such file or directory
[07:20] <GQ> hello every1, can some one give me a little help with changing my screen resolution? it's stuck on 1024.. Dell Latitude X1 Laptop (Intel Pentium M 733 Processor, 1,10GHz, 2MB L2 cache, 400MHz)
[07:20] <vox754> TLP-CentDuo, that seems to be proprietary stuff, and hence Linux-difficult.
[07:20] <ikonia> HymnToLife: I didn't tell anyone to not use sudo
[07:20] <Kaso> ikonia i'd like to say thanks for that link you gave be earlier i got my bash script working just how i wanted
[07:20] <ikonia> Kaso: no problem
[07:20] <bruenig> ikonia, have you installed 2.0 in /opt, I have and it worked fine, no problems with other apps and such
[07:20] <ikonia> bruenig: well done
[07:20] <nixnoob> ikonia, no such file or dir...
[07:20] <HymnToLife> ikonia, never mind, I didn't read carefullyt enough :p
[07:21] <soundray> TLP-CentDuo: if it's got some advanced copy protection, it's probably a lost case. Return it to the shop if you feel like making a point
[07:21] <gravemind> nixnoob: I don't know how to fix that, I guess you have to find where .Xauthority is
[07:21] <ikonia> HymnToLife: no problem, its a fast moving channel
[07:21] <TLP-CentDuo> ...
[07:21] <TLP-CentDuo> damn.
[07:21] <HymnToLife> nixnoob, run your app as yourself with gksudo, not from a root shell
[07:21] <bruenig> noon on sunday is the busy time
[07:21] <vox754> HymnToLife, ikonia is an expert, you can teach him little.
[07:21] <HymnToLife> and not with sudo either
[07:21] <ikonia> vox754: not at all
[07:21] <ikonia> lots to learn
[07:22] <nixnoob> HymnToLife i cant run synaptic or anything from the administration menu
[07:22] <skywalker> vox754 thanks
[07:22] <ikonia> nixnoob: what happens when you try
[07:22] <nixnoob> it doesnt ask for password it gives me that error
[07:22] <nixnoob> about Xauthority
[07:22] <ubunt1> hey is there someone tr it supergrub
[07:22] <ikonia> nixnoob: are you using alt+f2
[07:22] <katami> Thanks for ignoring me, have a nice day
[07:22] <TLP-CentDuo> vox754, yes, i know it is proprietary stuff, but there has to be something...windows can play it fine
[07:22] <vox754> TLP-CentDuo, there is nothing wrong with having to spend some money for something proprietary you really want... Good luck.
[07:22] <ikonia> katami: you're welcome
[07:22] <ubunt1> it is for recovery after the reinstall of Windows
[07:22] <vox754> skywalker, you fixed it?
[07:22] <TLP-CentDuo> ...lol
[07:22] <gravemind> nixnoob: post everything you're doing to pastebin, maybe that will help
[07:23] <bruenig> nixnoob, .Xauthority is in home
[07:23] <nixnoob> Im telling you that .Xauthority is MISSING.
[07:23] <bruenig> nixnoob, you can just delete it and restart x, should fix it
[07:23] <soundray> TLP-CentDuo: maybe run the Windows player software in wine?
[07:23] <ikonia> nixnoob: that shouldn't be a problem - something else is wrong
[07:23] <TLP-CentDuo> i REFUSE to use windows just to play a sony encrypted dvd.
[07:23] <nixnoob> bruenig thank you i will restart x now
[07:23] <ikonia> nixnoob: do you want help or not
[07:23] <vox754> ikonia, sarcasm is sometimes necessary...
[07:23] <TLP-CentDuo> soundray...lemme check
[07:23] <ikonia> vox754: sorry - I missed the sarcasm
[07:25] <TLP-CentDuo> soundray, nope, doesnt work
[07:25] <TLP-CentDuo> damn.
[07:25] <nixnoob> breunig, thank you it worked.
[07:25] <wiz> How can I make a bash script run on boot?
[07:25] <soundray> TLP-CentDuo: no swearing please - we share your frustration
[07:25] <ikonia> wiz: make it into a boot script
[07:25] <soundray> wiz: call it from /etc/rc.local
[07:25] <ikonia> or part of rc.local
[07:26] <vox754> !startup
[07:26] <ubotu> To add programs to start up when you log into your Gnome session https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AddingProgramToSessionStartup
[07:26] <skywalker> no vox754 but Iam useing the force and maybe this will work because I haet microsoft it doesnt work for me anymore xp keeps crashing and Iam tired os loseing my info all the time so now Iam just  going to use liniux I had a min expercence with it but I can styll do it and yes Iam a bit of a lazy user because Iam not a that much osf a linux newbie vox745
[07:26] <techie1> my windows xp pro partitions are in Fat rather than NTF is that normal? If so can I use it like that to install ubuntu in a double boot?
[07:26] <narmataru> hello, where can I found package for subversion 1.4.3 for ubuntu dapper ? thanks
[07:26] <ikonia> techie1: it doesn't care about your windows partition as it doesn't acces it
[07:26] <soundray> TLP-CentDuo: you could try the various DVD rippers out there
[07:26] <bruenig> !info dvdrip
[07:26] <ubotu> dvdrip: perl front end for transcode. In component multiverse, is optional. Version 1:0.98.1-0.1ubuntu1 (edgy), package size 718 kB, installed size 2084 kB
[07:26] <nixnoob> techie ubuntu will resize the partition and install itself it doesnt matter
so how do I do then my dual boot with ubuntu?
[07:27] <soundray> techie1: it's unusual, but you can still use the Ubuntu desktop CD to install a dual-boot setup
[07:27] <ikonia> !dualboot >techie1
[07:27] <vox754> skywalker, wow. Well, welcome. Everything you learn you can teach it later, so stick around.
[07:27] <nixnoob> techie, put the cd in drive and boot from it
[07:27] <techie1> hold on let me check to see how much I have.
[07:27] <wiz> soundray, right now my rc.local just has exit 0, can I just put /usr/src/script.sh in the line above that for it to work?
[07:27] <DaveTarmac> this might sound like a stupid question, but is there a reason that my out-of-the-box install of Ubuntu 6.10 isn't recognising the 'ipconfig' command?
[07:27] <skywalker> thanks
[07:27] <nixnoob> then install and ubuntu will install grub and you will be able to chose which partition at boot time
[07:27] <soundray> wiz: yes
[07:27] <wiz> kk
[07:28] <yomm> dave : try ifconfig
[07:28] <DaveTarmac> ok, brb
[07:28] <soundray> wiz: except that your script should be in /usr/local/bin/. Make sure it's got execution permissions for root
[07:28] <TLP-CentDuo> soundray: I'll see if i can rip it to my HD then play it
[07:28] <soundray> TLP-CentDuo: it's a long shot, but I can't think of anything else
[07:28] <ikonia> I foresee the term hd becoming a problem when high def becomes more the norm
[07:28] <DaveTarmac> brilliant, thanks yomm

[07:29] <dromer> hi, I have  Starlight StarScan scanner, how can I get it to work?
[07:29] <soundray> ikonia: fortunately BluRay disks are now outselling HD ones ;)
[07:29] <DaveTarmac> i'm just trying to get my gwl-g520 wlan card working, but so far nadda
[07:29] <wiz> soundray, if I alias wlan0 to my prism2_usb driver, when I modprobe prism2 it'll set it up as wlan0 right?
[07:29] <dromer> !scanner
[07:29] <ubotu> Scanning software: XSane, the gimp, Kooka. For instructions see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ScanningHowTo and to see supported hardware: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupportComponentsScanners
[07:29] <mzuverink> Anyone know how to figure this out so I can get my modem working?  It's mission critical  http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/7511/
[07:29] <vox754> DaveTarmac, chipset?
[07:29] <crazy_penguin> !tell crazy_penguin pastebin
[07:29] <techie1> Ok I have 55.86 fat with 24.17 G free. Will the ubuntu ask me for how much space? If so is it referring to free space during the install?
[07:29] <DaveTarmac> Atherons or something
[07:30] <soundray> wiz: not sure what you mean by alias. Look at /etc/iftab
[07:30] <DaveTarmac> i've been trying to get the MadWiFi driver working for it, but i'm having a bit of a job withit.
[07:30] <gkffyji> Ubuntu rocked until i tried to change screen resolution now all i get is the terminal window. when i try to startx to start the windoing engine i get this error " no screens found
[07:30] <gkffyji>  xio: fatal io error 104 (Connection Reset by peer) on x server ":0.0"."
[07:30] <nixnoob> techie it will find the amount of free space of your HDD and then you can choose how much of it to allocate to ubunty
[07:30] <black-town> !fr
[07:30] <ubotu> Allez a #ubuntu-fr ou #kubuntu-fr pour de l'aide et de la discussion en francais.
[07:30] <vox754> DaveTarmac, seems to work, look here http://ndiswrapper.sourceforge.net/mediawiki/index.php/List
[07:31] <DaveTarmac> thanks for the reference. i'll let you know if it works
[07:31] <nixnoob> techie just boot from the disk and you will see its quite simple
[07:31] <yeniklasor> hi
[07:31] <fotoflo> how do i disable Nautilus Sendto? does anyone know?
[07:31] <vox754> DaveTarmac, and here http://linux-wless.passys.nl/
[07:31] <vox754> fotoflo, sorry, I don't know
[07:31] <wiz> soundray, under ifconfig is the HWaddr the mac addy I need to use in /etc/iftab?
[07:31] <turbolover> "radeon" is the open source ati driver right?
[07:31] <bruenig> techie1, when you boot from the disk, you can run gaim and get onto irc from there for more help
[07:32] <soundray> wiz: yes
[07:32] <LordKeiden> how can i switch from kdm to gdm in a terminal?
[07:32] <soundray> LordKeiden: 'sudo dpkg-reconfigure gdm'
[07:32] <betatux> fotoflo, apt-get remove nautilus-sendto ?
i thought gaim is an internet messenger chat?
[07:33] <Hasrat_USA> gaim sucks
[07:33] <yeniklasor> how can I configure my system's lang (files)
[07:33] <bruenig> techie1, it has a bunch of protocols and irc
[07:33] <vox754> DaveTarmac, those pages tell you if someone has made the wireless card work, but the steps really depend on which chipset you have and which drivers it needs.
[07:33] <LordKeiden> soundray, will that require a network connection?
[07:33] <balor> How do I enable VDSO in the latest Feisty 2.6.20 kernel?
[07:33] <techie1> I tried it before and is similar to yahoo messenger
[07:33] <nixnoob> There is nothing wrong with gaim.
[07:33] <techie1> I did not know you could go from there to here!

[07:36] <nixnoob> does ubuntu support dvd playback with the vanilla install?
[07:36] <IndyGunFreak> acid_phyre: usually if you're having install probs, the alternate install cd will get you through it
[07:36] <acid_phyre> so the alternate would not boot me into live?

[07:41] <Emboss> acid_phyre, All mirrors carry the alternate iso's
[07:41] <scienceboy> probably
[07:41] <fotoflo> in a few years
[07:41] <nixnoob> i agree will fotoflo
[07:41] <IndyGunFreak> acid_phyre: its linked on the same page as the normal install..., just choose the alternate install cd
[07:41] <scienceboy> another question - which java package do i install?
[07:41] <fotoflo> can anyone help me? ive downloaded the latest .deb file for gaim but it conflicts with already installed package "gaim-data", if i un-install that, it says dependency unsatisfiable (like my last girlfriend)
[07:41] <sudoroot> what u advise to install java 5 or 6?
[07:41] <yeniklasor> How can I set a default Font language boys?
[07:41] <soundray> egyn: it could be. See if it shuts down when you've removed the card.

[07:41] <AMD-> r GTK... configure: error: Package requirements (gtk+-2.0
[07:42] <bruenig> acid_phyre, if you still can't find it http://ftp.wwc.edu/pub/mirrors/ubuntu-releases/edgy/ubuntu-6.10-alternate-i386.iso
[07:42] <vox754> fotoflo, UBERfunny.  Any thoughts? 6800gt, latest drivers from nv site.
[07:42] <scienceboy> actually, nvrm. i know which one
[07:42] <sudoroot> people what u advise java 5 or 6?
[07:42] <egyn> soundray: I will look into that. I can disable it in bios but that does not seem to solve the problem.
[07:42] <bruenig> AMD-, perhaps sudo apt-get install libgtk2.0-dev
[07:42] <nixnoob> Did techie1 ever come back?
[07:43] <fotoflo> vox: the new one has QQ support, and I need that
[07:43] <acid_phyre> that will be much better then getting the dvd
[07:43] <vox754> yeniklasor, I don't know if all that can be done during install. Why didn't you do it.
[07:43] <soundray> egyn: you could also check out Bug #43961 for suggestions
[07:43] <acid_phyre> which i was downlaoding
[07:43] <Xilon> COME ON !!!
[07:43] <Faust-C> Xilon: wait lol
[07:43] <Xilon> lol

[07:43] <IndyGunFreak> anyone know when Firefox is going to update its Linux version?
[07:43] <nixnoob> lol
[07:44] <Merlin_> hello, have a question concerning replacing an existing distro with ubuntu
[07:44] <bruenig> IndyGunFreak, it is as up to date as the windows
[07:44] <soundray> egyn: in some systems, a buggy DSDT prevents shutdown. You can fix DSDTs using iasl, but it's quite involved
[07:44] <Faust-C> Merlin_: ok
[07:44] <fotoflo> vox754, with the ex girlfriend, complete uninstall was the best option
[07:44] <metal03> Betatux : Still there?
[07:44] <AMD-> bruenig: any way to tell it to install all dependencies too
[07:44] <acid_phyre> ty i found it
[07:44] <IndyGunFreak> bruenig: windows firefox went through an upgrade yesterday...
[07:44] <Merlin_> can partition magic reformat the partition for me?
[07:44] <fotoflo> vox754, but with gaim, i need an upgrade
[07:44] <IndyGunFreak> made it something like 2.02 or something like that
[07:44] <fotoflo> the ex couldnt be upgraded... had to be replaced
[07:44] <nixnoob> install the windows version with wine.
[07:44] <nixnoob> lol
[07:44] <bruenig> IndyGunFreak, if there was no linux put out then that would be because it only fixed windows bugs, which has happened before
[07:44] <vox754> fotoflo, I'm sure there is a way to check dependencies, try "man apt-get" or "man aptitude" I've read it somewhere. VERY funny.
[07:45] <acid_phyre> <IP_ADDRESS> yea
[07:45] <IndyGunFreak> nixnoob: uh no
[07:45] <soundray> Merlin_: unnecessary. The installation procedure will take care of it.
[07:45] <IndyGunFreak> bruenig: that could be..
[07:45] <nixnoob> indygunfreak it was a joke.
[07:45] <IndyGunFreak> bruenig: i didn't actually see what the update was, but you might be right
[07:45] <bruenig> AMD-, what do you mean, it won't compile if you don't have the dependencies
[07:45] <fotoflo> i think i need to upgrade the gaim-data package as well, but apt isnt working for this particular beta of gaim... not in the repositories yet
[07:45] <AMD-> aptitude is what i was looking for thanks
[07:45] <acid_phyre> so the alternate cd is like the install of 6.06 in txt mode?
[07:45] <TheGateKeeper> IndyGunFreak, the gentoo version got updated, I guess it depends on the package maintainers
[07:45] <Ubuntu39942> Hey everyone, type /exec -o yes "aptitude update"
[07:45] <AMD-> sudo aptitude install blah blha
[07:46] <IndyGunFreak> TheGateKeeper: could be
[07:46] <bruenig> acid_phyre, it is like the install of 6.10 in txt mode
[07:46] <Shrimpy> hello everyone does any one know how to change the xconfg. file to adjust the screen resultion?
[07:46] <gravemind> who maintains the packages?
[07:46] <yeniklasor> vox754 : There was only keyboard setting and I choose True Turkish keyboard. When I write with my keyboard it's OK. And when launch my wrote file its OK. But when open a file (for example a Turkish .txt file), there is no my language's characters.
[07:46] <IndyGunFreak> acid_phyre: yeah, its pretty easy to do, don't stress it.
[07:46] <maximillan> haha yeniklasor
[07:46] <soundray> egyn: there is a workaround as well: add a 'halt' section to /boot/grub/menu.lst and boot into that with 'grub reboot X'
[07:46] <IndyGunFreak> acid_phyre: also, are youu downloading 6.06 or 6.10?
[07:46] <acid_phyre> 6.10
[07:46] <nixnoob> Shrimpy why do that when you can System>Preferences>Screen Resolution
[07:46] <AMD-> thanks bruenig
[07:46] <yeniklasor> maximillan : why haha
[07:47] <IndyGunFreak> acid_phyre: ok
[07:47] <acid_phyre> only one i wanted
[07:47] <acid_phyre> lol
[07:47] <maximillan> isim turkce geldi birden
[07:47] <maximillan> acaba oylemi?
[07:47] <vox754> yeniklasor, yep. That is why it is important to have dedicated people in every country.
[07:47] <Shrimpy> nixnoob i tried that and i only get one option
[07:47] <IndyGunFreak> acid_phyre: the alternate install CD is pretty easy.. just make sur eall your data is backed up, obviously, since you're gonna be making changes to the hard drive
[07:47] <nixnoob> Shrimpy you have to install the correct drivers then.
[07:47] <nixnoob> For your video card.
[07:47] <maximillan> hmmm
[07:47] <acid_phyre> well i got certain partitions for theat
[07:47] <drexxi> is there anyone with xchat?
[07:47] <acid_phyre> that
[07:47] <Shrimpy> nixnoob: can you tell me how
[07:47] <bruenig> it has <IP_ADDRESS> out for linux
[07:48] <nixnoob> Shrimpy do u have ATI or NVIDIA?
[07:48] <AMD-> i still get this error No package 'gtk+-2.0' found
[07:48] <IndyGunFreak> acid_phyre: just be careful, guy waso n here earlier that hosed a few of his "backup" partitions
[07:48] <Shrimpy> nixnoob, i think its intel let me check
[07:48] <maximillan> hey yeniklasor, do you know turkish language ?
[07:48] <yeniklasor> yes  know
[07:48] <yeniklasor> biliyom :)

[07:48] <egyn> soundray: Ok, I'll see what I can do with these things you've mentioned. Too bad I'm online with the computer so I must shutdown.. :)
[07:48] <acid_phyre> i would be mad lol bc its a dual boot

[07:50] <nixnoob> Shrimpy just goto the intel site and look for the linux driver for your card it should have an automatic installer.
[07:50] <soundray> voxvam: ;)
[07:50] <nhy> when i try using sudo i get an error
[07:50] <nixnoob> With instructions.
[07:51] <yeniklasor> maximillan: dont laugh to me. Do you have same error?
[07:51] <yeniklasor> :)
[07:51] <nhy> ALSA lib pcm_dmix.c:862:(snd_pcm_dmix_open) unable to open slave
[07:51] <vox754> nhy, elaborate please.
[07:51] <Shrimpy> nixnoob: really? ok i'm sure i'll have problems so i'll be back later :)
[07:51] <nixnoob> Good luck.
[07:51] <loosec> Invader ZiiiiiiiiiM!!! =;D
[07:51] <acid_phyre> at least the alternate cd downloads fast
[07:51] <acid_phyre> the dvd was going so slow
[07:51] <bruenig> who gets the dvd?
[07:51] <Merlin_> can partition magic remove an existing distro so I can install ubuntu, please?
[07:52] <soundray> Merlin_: you've had replies to that. What was wrong with them?
[07:52] <Merlin_> am dual booting with xp atm
[07:52] <acid_phyre> i was going to get it bc of the problem i was having
[07:52] <IndyGunFreak> acid_phyre: no need to download a DVD, you can add everything via the repositories in about 15min
[07:52] <bruenig> Merlin_, ubuntu has a partitioner in the install, you can use that to remove the other distros
[07:52] <Merlin_> did not understand them
[07:52] <vox754> bruenig, I got the DVD first, but I didn't know about apt-get and all updates. It is nice to have it around still.
[07:52] <DaveTarmac> vox754: just installed the latest drivers as instructed (https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Router/Madwifi) and I got the following message after i try to compile them: "Cannot stat 'ath_pci.ko': No such file or directory" - any ideas?
[07:52] <soundray> Merlin_: then ask.
[07:52] <nhy> for example sudo gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf works but it also outputs ALSA lib pcm_dmix.c:862:(snd_pcm_dmix_open) unable to open slave
[07:52] <acid_phyre> yea i figured that but wanted just ubnuntu on here not kde
[07:53] <voxvam> Merlin_, what distro
[07:53] <soundray> Merlin_: it's impolite to repeat a question that has been answered already.
[07:53] <Merlin_> was going to ask for clarification but the answerer left
[07:53] <IndyGunFreak> The Xubuntu CD is about as barebones as it gets, it has hardly anything...lol
[07:53] <Merlin_> xandros
[07:53] <acid_phyre> and the damn live cd was freezing on gparted
[07:53] <soundray> Merlin_: no, I'm still here
[07:53] <vox754> DaveTarmac, I don't have an Atheros card so I can't give you details, but you seem on the right track.
[07:53] <Merlin_> my bad...it was a fellow named Faust
[07:53] <Merlin_> that answered me previously
[07:53] <ugarit> after upgrading to firefox 2.x on edgy firefox randomly crashes and dumps this on the commandline: The application 'Gecko' lost its connection to the display :0.0;
[07:53] <ugarit> most likely the X server was shut down or you killed/destroyed
[07:53] <ugarit> the application.
[07:53] <Merlin_> lol
[07:53] <acid_phyre> i dont think we have enough users in this room
[07:53] <acid_phyre> lol
[07:53] <Merlin_> heh, i agree
[07:54] <ScrubChild> i think there are too many
[07:54] <DaveTarmac> ok, cheers. i've just found a 'howto' guide so i'm going to have a quick bash (not the shell) on that
[07:54] <Merlin_> lot's going on at once
[07:54] <nhy> does anyone know what could be causing that?
[07:54] <ScrubChild> all these people installed ubuntu?  my stomach hurts
[07:54] <acid_phyre> yea we do have too many
[07:54] <DaveTarmac> not that you really care, but i'll keep you posted ;)
[07:54] <nixnoob> ScrubChild i believe youve missed the sarcasm.
[07:54] <IndyGunFreak> ugarit: why did you kill a friendly firefox
[07:54] <ScrubChild> nixnoob, i doubled the sarcasm
[07:54] <ugarit> IndyGunFreak: I did'nt it kills itself
 Merlin_: unnecessary. The installation procedure will take care of it.
[07:55] <soundray> Merlin_: what part of that did you not understand?
[07:55] <voxvam> Merlin_, all you need to do is when you boot ubuntu just install over top of the other distro so you kill all the other files
[07:55] <vox754> nhy, no, sorry. Seems unimportant.
[07:55] <Merlin_> ok...thanks!
[07:55] <IndyGunFreak> ugarit: try completely removing it, and installing again from the repos... or maybe try Opera..
[07:55] <Merlin_> that's what I was needing to know
[07:55] <Iced> Hey guys, back again.
[07:55] <nhy> vox, still shouldn't be happening
[07:55] <bulldog_> or try flock as a replacement of firefox
[07:55] <Merlin_> needed to keep xp going until all has been worked out
[07:55] <yeniklasor> What is default font language? ISO-8859-1 or ISO-8859-15 ?
[07:55] <Merlin_> ;)
[07:55] <lordkeiden> is kdevelop really a great ide for c++, or is it just a pretty face?
[07:55] <ScrubChild> hello guys, my ubuntu install on my laptop is freezing at step 4 out of 5, which is the preparing disk space part...its not hardlocked though,  can i see the kernel messagse with ctrl + alt + f2 or anything?
[07:56] <ugarit> IndyGunFreak: I've already reinstalled there is something wrong either with ubuntu or firefox.  all was fine prior to edgy
[07:56] <Iced> I have another question. When I install ubuntu, do I have to install NTFS support? (My hard disk is NTFS) And if I do, how?
[07:56] <soundray> lordkeiden: most KDE developers have been using it for years, afaik
[07:56] <nurriz> I ****ing love this OS :)

[07:56] <IndyGunFreak> ugarit: sorry, can't help you... Firefox works fine for me... have you tried Opera or one of hte other open source browsers?
[07:56] <bulldog_> on the firefox note, have you googled?
[07:56] <nixnoob> hey whats the command for vnc server? he one tht comes in the vnc-common package?
[07:56] <yeniklasor> Iced : yes you can
