[04:44] <catid> does anyone know of a tool to change laptop fan speed on a Gateway?
[04:44] <Juanca> hi, can anyone help me with an error like this: "User's $HOME/.dmrc file is being ignored..." everytime I login?
[04:44] <Falstius> jrib: couldn't he have just used chgrp ..
[04:44] <LjL> e\ectro_: err, the "restricted kernel modules" *are* the proprietary drivers.
[04:45] <catid> e\ectro_: the Ubuntu packages are preferred of course over the nvidia ones
[04:45] <LjL> e\ectro_: but yes, please do install the Ubuntu-provided ones, don't get them from the nvidia site or you'll run into problems with updates.
[04:45] <ChinaForge> Falstius,I installed firestarter,but it can't detect eth0:1(<IP_ADDRESS>),How to set?
[04:45] <zylthinking> who can tell me why console font changed after I compiling and installing kernel <IP_ADDRESS>?=-O I am new in linux and dont know how to change it back, and why compiling or installing can change the font setting of console?
[04:45] <efrancolaporte> hi im considering reinstalling windows on my PC without erasing my ubuntu partition, anyone knows of a simple way to reinstall GRUB afterwards?
[04:45] <bv> LjL: In my case, the restart just after installation is finished hangs
[04:45] <Falstius> ChinaForge: dunno, never used it.
[04:45] <catid> does anyone know of a tool to change laptop fan speed on a Gateway?
[04:45] <jrib> Falstius: to do what?
[04:45] <Ramunas> strabes: thanks, but that didn't help
[04:45] <Falstius> jrib: nevermind, I was imagining things.
[04:45] <LjL> bv: oh, that happened to me too with Desktop, never been a real problem though
[04:45] <Ramunas> I have a screenshot: http://img470.imageshack.us/img470/2360/screenshotzl5.png
[04:45] <kaiwai> hi
[04:45] <pike_> Juanca: i dont know.. if you 'ls -la | grep .dmrc'  is the file owned by you etc ?
[04:45] <tatters> Is there a backup tool like norton ghost or Vista backup tool which can run whilst ubuntu is running and create a image for a bare metal restore?
[04:46] <LjL> !backup > tatters    (tatters, see the private message from Ubotu)
[04:46] <Ramunas> the left one is the way it used to be, and the right is current one
[04:46] <kaiwai> just got a problem with the mp4mux; when I rip and encode music, the mp4mux corrupts the file :(
[04:46] <e\ectro_> automatix2 site is down
[04:46] <bv> LjL: it's kindof a problem not getting to the login prompt :)
[04:46] <e\ectro_> :(
[04:46] <ChinaForge> Falstius,Thank you!
[04:46] <LjL> tatters: however, i doubt any backup software can work very reliably *while Ubuntu is running*, since ext3 doesn't have any provisions for filesystem snapshots. i know that for instance XFS does.
[04:46] <efrancolaporte> im considering reinstalling windows on my PC without erasing my ubuntu partition, anyone knows of a simple way to reinstall GRUB afterwards?
[04:46] <LjL> !automatix > e\ectro_    (e\ectro_, see the private message from Ubotu)
[04:46] <kaiwai> anyone got any experience using AAC encoding and Ubuntu
[04:46] <LjL> e\ectro_: why do you feel a need to use Automatix?
[04:47] <Falstius> ChinaForge: how do you have two IP addresses on different networks with 1 network card?
[04:47] <LjL> !grub > efrancolaporte    (efrancolaporte, see the private message from Ubotu)
[04:47] <bulmer> zylthinking: because the script uses Ncurses and have not properly taken care of script failure, it did not reset the terminal to its original settings..now to set original settings you have to kill that console and start fresh
[04:47] <Juanca> pike: this Is what it gaves me: -rw-r--r--  1 zapata zapata    26 2007-04-26 08:18 .dmrc
[04:47] <efrancolaporte> LjL thank you :-)
[04:47] <e\ectro_> LjL:  makes life easier
[04:47] <Falstius> shoe?
[04:48] <LjL> e\ectro_: it does? it certainly doesn't make it easier when an update comes out and your system breaks totally.  besides, 1) the nvidia/ati drivers can now be installed automatically  2) the restricted codecs, same  3) the rest, well, learning what repositories are and how they work is something you *will* need to do, anyway
[04:48] <Josesordo> socketbind_, thanks is now mplayer work ;)
[04:48] <kaiwai> sorry, when I use ffmux_mp4, it corrupts the ripped file, how do I fix it
[04:49] <WhoAmI> !   ?
[04:49] <Juanca> can anyone help me with an error like this: "User's $HOME/.dmrc file is being ignored..." everytime I login?

[04:49] <Falstius> Juanca: chmod 600 ~/.dmrc

[04:50] <mrbrocoli> any idea how to fix that or to at least make it ignore libpq5?
[04:50] <LjL> !english > WhoAmI    (WhoAmI, see the private message from Ubotu)
[04:50] <Falstius> Juanca: you could just delete the file.  It should be recreated automatically.
[04:50] <mrbrocoli> or how to get some debug output from update-manager
[04:51] <Juanca> Falstius: How do I do that?

[04:58] <Lobosque> Hello guys. I have just put a new HD in my computer with windows, and now when i try to boot the ubuntu hd, i get this error: "/bin/sh : can't acess tty/job control turned off" i searched a lot but i don't found any solution. I'm sure that it is happening because grub/ubuntu is "confused" because i installed a new HD
[04:58] <mrbrocoli> how do i figure out why update-manager is aborting trying to install libpq5 (which i dont have neither care about)?
[04:59] <erUSUL> mrbrocoli: do the update through terminal 'sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade'
[04:59] <mrbrocoli> erUSUL:  im trying a dist-upgrade from edgy to fesity
[04:59] <Falstius> Lobosque: it might be a problem with fstab actually, if your inserting a new drive changed the order of the sata drives.  Are you using edgy or dapper or feisty?
[04:59] <tim167> Eze1: i tried that too, also i re-uploaded the page, still firefox shows the old version :s
[05:00] <Lobosque> Falstius i'm using feisty
[05:00] <mrbrocoli> erUSUL:  and im afraid of just changing sources.list to feisty repos as i have no idea what else does update-manager do, other than a apt-get dist-upgrade
[05:01] <Falstius> Lobosque: nevermind, fstab is using UUID in that case and so adding a drive shouldn't make any difference (unless you went in and removed the UUID in which case you would probably know enough to not be asking :)).
[05:01] <Petey> Does anyone know a known-working virtual PC, VMware, etc. piece of software that I can run Ubuntu in a virtual environment?  Microsoft Virtual Server doesn't seem to work :/
[05:01] <Lobosque> Falstius it happens in 1/10 of the ubuntu loading bar, i'm gonna paste it in your pvt
[05:02] <Falstius> Lobosque: you should just put it in pastebin and the link to the channel.
[05:02] <ccnp> my sound card  is not work in ubuntu 7.4  it is  Adi 1981B SoundMAX  i need help
[05:02] <MarcN> Petey: Xen, VMware
[05:02] <MarcN> Petey: qemu
[05:02] <erUSUL> mrbrocoli: my upgrade just died too with a broken package... check if your sources.list has already be changed to point to feisty if that's the case use the command line
[05:02] <Josesordo> there is a quake 3: arena for linux??
[05:02] <finley> Petey: we run over 30 virtual machines off a quad cpu opteron box.  Dapper as host OS, and Ubuntu as most of the guest OS'.
[05:02] <mrbrocoli> erUSUL:  no, it's all pointing to edgy still
[05:02] <tim167> when i open the page with lynx it shows the right version, why  is Firefox sticking with the old version, i cleared everything...
[05:02] <jvolkman> Josesordo, yes
[05:03] <finley> Petey: all using vmware.
[05:03] <Eze1> Anybody knows how to switch right/middle mousebutton functions? I want to open firefox-tabs with my MIDDLE-button and the desktopmenu with my RIGHT-button. . !
[05:03] <jvolkman> Josesordo, id has ports of all of their games for Linux
[05:03] <Josesordo> jvolkman, :O
[05:03] <O2O> hi
[05:03] <finley> Petey: only real issue is that guest OS clocks run a bit slowly, but a cronjob to sync them frequently (*/5) fixes that.
[05:04] <Josesordo> well, I'll play it :D
[05:04] <ccnp> my sound card  is not work in ubuntu 7.4  it is  Adi 1981B SoundMAX  i need help
[05:04] <Lobosque> I have just put a new HD in my computer with windows, and now when i try to boot the ubuntu hd, i get this error: "/bin/sh : can't acess tty/job control turned off" i searched a lot but i don't found any solution. I'm sure that it is happening because grub/ubuntu is "confused" because i installed a new HD -> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/18593/
[05:04] <Petey> Thank you MarkN, Finley... I'm going to try VMware now
[05:04] <erUSUL> mrbrocoli: maybe you can remove the conflicting package after the upgrade attemp
[05:04] <Falstius> is there nothing before that?
[05:05] <Petey> I just had MS VS already on a server, thought that'd work :/
[05:05] <Falstius> Lobosque: is there nothing before that?
[05:05] <peippo> Hi. I have a problem starting my Ubuntu Edgy GUI (X?) After the login screen I get this msg, and a black screen for a few seconds, then get thrown back to the login. "There was an error starting the GNOME Settings Daemon. Unable to determine the address of the message bus". Any ideas what to do?
[05:05] <erUSUL> mrbrocoli: before**
[05:05] <mrbrocoli> erUSUL: it fails during download of the package.. and i dont have libpq5 anywhere
[05:05] <Lobosque> Falstius I don't think so. and it happens in the start of ubuntu loading bar.
[05:05] <Falstius> Lobosque: sata or pata?
[05:05] <Lobosque> Falstius pata
[05:05] <mrbrocoli> erUSUL: it goes try to download everything, then fails then rolls back everything
[05:06] <erUSUL> mrbrocoli: remove the package an try again
[05:06] <Lobosque> Falstius i search and i see that people usually have this error with live cd
[05:06] <mrbrocoli> erUSUL:  i dont have that package at all! :)

[05:06] <rever75> Hi is there a way to add  md5sum to the right click contex menu? I assume one could do it via a script that opens in a terminal. Just not a script writer
[05:06] <ccnp> my sound card  is not work in ubuntu 7.4  it is  Adi 1981B SoundMAX  i need help
[05:07] <neverblue> I currently have a working Intel (on board) video card, I just added a ATI 8MB PCI into this system.  I followed the directions given on http://wiki.cchtml.com/index.php/Ubuntu_Feisty_Installation_Guide, but without success. I haven't tried the manual step, as I dont even know if I can install this card (for duals), someone know if i can?
[05:07] <erUSUL> mrbrocoli: i have a similar problem with tzdata (404 not found) i just waited a few days till my irrors catched up
[05:07] <Juanca> thank you LjL
[05:07] <Falstius> Lobosque: you could try using a liveCD to reinstall grub.  You'd have to google for instructions.
[05:07] <oldude67> ljl: sending someone to page that doesnt give specifics for newbie will get them lost
[05:07] <Juanca> Falstius: Hey. It didn't worked
[05:07] <oldude67> ljl: sorry for the hassle
[05:08] <LjL> oldude67, i'm not entirely sure *what* specifics that page doesn't give... it gives you every single command you have to type. and since you're on IRC, it should be pretty obvious they're to be typed, well, on IRC:...
[05:08] <Falstius> Juanca: the message didn't go away, or it didn't recreate .dmrc?
[05:08] <e\ectro_> I ran a netboot install for this version of feisty, and I must say, the GRUB setup just BLOWS...  I have 1 SATA (primary), 2 IDE drives, and it thought my SATA was (hd2,0).  had to boot off knoppix, chroot, and resetup grub..  just thought I'd share
[05:08] <Juanca> Falstius: the message didn't go away
[05:09] <Meltir> how do i add a pl_PL.ISO locale in ubuntu ? under debian when i did dpkg-reconfigure locale i got a nice list of locales i could compile, how do i get something like that here ?
[05:09] <mrbrocoli> erUSUL:  bummer.. how do i find out more info about whats going wrong? the logs dont say much..
[05:09] <oldude67> ljl: well im use to windows that usually is all add in with the download of things...not afterwards
[05:09] <mrbrocoli> erUSUL:  logs in /var/log/dist-upgrade (is there any other?)
[05:09] <Juanca> Falstius: I didn't check if .dmrc was recreated
[05:09] <oldude67> ljl : so i didnt know if i had to go to a setting or something to do that.
[05:10] <oldude67> ljl: or irc homepage.
[05:10] <awk_> can somebody recommed media player with cue/mp3 support (for gnome) ?
[05:10] <LjL> oldude67: eh?! this has nothing to do with Ubuntu. you're presently on the Freenode IRC (Internet Relay Chat) network -- you'd have to follow the same step if you had joined from within Windows.
[05:10] <Falstius> Juanca: can you do ls -l .dmrc and paste the -rw-r----- part?
[05:10] <bwlang> awk_: vlc can play just about anything
[05:10] <pike_> Juanca: just curious if you ls -l /home you own home dir right?
[05:10] <LjL> oldude67, IRC isn't something specific to Ubuntu. this is simply the Ubuntu IRC channel on the Freenode network.
[05:10] <oldude67> no never had
[05:10] <awk_> bwlang: yeah, but it's cue support does not work for me
[05:10] <oldude67> ljl: no never had irc before
[05:11] <Juanca> Falstius: ls: .dmrc: No such file or directory
[05:11] <LjL> oldude67: that's because you never installed any IRC program. i guess.
[05:11] <Juanca> pike: How do I know from the output I get?
[05:11] <oldude67> ljl: no.....only thing i had close to it was mirc and set that all up before even logging into chat
[05:11] <Falstius> !grub > Lobosque (the reinstalling grub after windows bit, should be applicable in this case too)
[05:11] <neverblue> anyone to help with this ATI card install?

[05:12] <Juanca> pike: I mean highlighted

[05:12] <Lobosque> Faltius what is busybox?
[05:12] <Falstius> Lobosque: it is a program that emulates many of the normal command line programs like cat, cp, mv but it is much much smaller.
[05:13] <oldude67> can anyone tell me other then amazon , on where to find a book on ubuntu?
[05:13] <matid> Anyone with Joost (http://joost.com) invites to spare?

[05:14] <neverblue> can you use 'sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg' to setup dual monitors?
[05:14] <Lobosque> Faltius "I've had the same problem as you have and spent hours going through the jungle of posts on this topic. In the end, the solution was, for me at least, VERY simple: I changed the UUID of my disk in my menu.lst (/boot/grub/menu.lst) to the classical identification of device location." How do I do this?
[05:15] <Falstius> Juanca: yeah, I'm thinking.  You could check what pike asked by doing ls -l /home and looking for your user name.  It should look like (with different dates) drwxr-x--x 125 zapata zapata 12288 2007-05-01 10:20 zapata
[05:15] <Ramunas> my fonts look like this: http://img470.imageshack.us/img470/2360/screenshotzl5.png and I was told that I need to enable xft, anybody knows how to do that?
[05:16] <Juanca> Falstius: It is "drwxrwxrwx 52 zapata zapata  4096 2007-05-01 10:09"
[05:16] <hoffmanc> I mean, I don't care about color support or anything, I would just like an easier way to edit lines when I make spelling mistakes and such
[05:16] <Juanca> Falstius: well "drwxrwxrwx 52 zapata zapata  4096 2007-05-01 10:09 zapata" actually
[05:16] <Falstius> Juanca: do you need to give write permissions to your home directory to other users?
[05:17] <Juanca> Falstius: no
[05:17] <Falstius> Juanca: do chmod o-rwx /home/zapata
[05:17] <neverblue> I currently have a working Intel (on board) video card, I just added a ATI 8MB PCI into this system.  I followed the directions given on http://wiki.cchtml.com/index.php/Ubuntu_Feisty_Installation_Guide, but without success. I haven't tried the manual step, as I dont even know if I can install this card (for duals), someone know if i can?
[05:18] <Juanca> Falstius: how do I know if that worked?
[05:18] <Falstius> Juanca: that just does the base directory, to do all of the files and subdirectories it is chmod -R o-rwx /home/zapata ... but you probably don't need that to fix this problem (it would be good for security however)
[05:18] <rever75> Is there a network card tester?  I am having tons of issues with my network card. I can download stuff but the md5sum is always wrong.
[05:18] <rever75> Someone else on the same network can download it and the md5sum is correct.
[05:18] <Flonares> LjL, kubuntu is rollin' on the pc! thks o/
[05:19] <rever75> HOwever, if I copy it from his machine to mine it is wrong when done.
[05:19] <Falstius> Juanca: you can ls -l /home again.  To check if the error message goes away, login again.
[05:19] <hoffmanc> can anyone even see what I'm writing?
[05:19] <Tom47> hoffmanc: i use xchat gnome and it has a spell checker
[05:19] <rever75> yes hoffmanc
[05:19] <Yabbo> hoffmanc: i can see you talking
[05:19] <Falstius> rever75: $5 for a new network card?
[05:20] <Juanca> Flastius: I will, thank you. But what about "cat: /.dmrc: No such file or directory"
[05:20] <hoffmanc> rever75, that was just an example, sometimes new words must be added, or I want to delete the rest of the line fast, etc.
[05:20] <Falstius> Juanca: that is okay.  Even if you don't have one, it isn't a problem.
[05:20] <rever75> Falstius, I agree I believe that is it too. However, is there a network card tester
[05:20] <cute_bettong> im useing the gl desktop stuff....and i hit something that let me zoom and pan around the desktops as if they where a cube...can anyone tell me what i hit to do that? i have things set to default keys and such...i just turned the effects on...but don't know how to use them
[05:20] <hoffmanc> I use vi mode in the shell, and it would be nice to have the same functionality in an irc client

[05:22] <Lobosque> how do i edit a file in terminal?
[05:22] <cute_bettong> strabes, dosen't seem to work.... O_o could i have broken it....i did it by accedent the first time lol
[05:23] <Arby> cute_bettong: try ctrl-alt-leftarrow/rightarrow.
[05:23] <strabes> cute_bettong: do you have the desktop cube plugin enabled
[05:23] <Falstius> Lobosque: nano is easy to use
[05:23] <StoneNote> Lobosque, depends on the file. either "nano <filename>" or "sudo nano <filename>"
[05:23] <strabes> nano is awesome. i'd learn vi if i had the time
[05:24] <strabes> i bet vi would be better once you learned all the commands and things
[05:24] <cute_bettong> strabes, how do i tell if i do or not.....it just worked for a second and i was like OOOOoo new eyecandy hehe
[05:24] <iopk> hi - I just installed Ubuntu and I apparently mis-identified my keyboard layout. How can I change it (commandline, there is no X since it's the server version)
[05:24] <Juanca> Falstius: didn't work either, the message is still there
[05:24] <strabes> cute_bettong: run beryl-manager
[05:24] <cute_bettong> strabes, um what is that lol

[05:25] <Falstius> Juanca: your computer is irritating :)  The last thing I can think of is, mv ~/dmrc_backup .dmrc && chmod 600 .dmrc
[05:25] <strabes> cute_bettong: right click on the red gem icon
[05:25] <Falstius> Juanca: and do chmod -R o-rwx /home/zapata
[05:25] <cute_bettong> strabes, there is no red gem O_o where are you talking of?

[05:26] <Juanca> Falstius: I don't know if the solution could be this: " I changed the home folder permission to 700 (owner=rwx, and all others blank) and...IT WORKED!!! ", but I don't know how to do it.
[05:26] <zylthinking> I do need your hand
[05:27] <cute_bettong> strabes, theres a little splotch next to the clock yellow in colour i click on it and it has a check mark next to the gl desktop and then a selection for prefrences
[05:27] <Falstius> Juanca: that is basically what chmod -R o-rwx /home/zapata would do.
[05:27] <zylthinking> hellow, my terminal font changed but I don't know why, seems compiling and installing new kernel don't effect the font setting, isn' it
[05:27] <strabes> cute_bettong: hit alt+f2 and type beryl-manager then hit enter

[05:28] <Juanca> Falstius: nop, it didn't work :(
[05:29] <neverblue> I currently have a working Intel (on board) video card, I just added a ATI 8MB PCI into this system.  I followed the directions given on http://wiki.cchtml.com/index.php/Ubuntu_Feisty_Installation_Guide, but without success. I haven't tried the manual step, as I dont even know if I can install this card (for duals), someone know if i can?
[05:29] <cute_bettong> strabes, file or location not found

But my Ubuntu (and also Windows XP) shows me, that the stick has only 2.1 MB! So I need the full 4 GB, how can I do that?

[05:31] <Falstius> Juanca: probably :)  Did you replace .dmrc?
[05:31] <Gogol> alguien que me pueda ayudar en espaol?

[05:32] <jhaig> iulian_: Yes.  You most likely need to set up an ssh server.
[05:32] <One2abusE> i'm just looking for a brain to pick on a probably dumb wireless question. anyone have a min or two?

[05:35] <Falstius> Juanca: good.  Maybe post it to one of those forums (what the guy suggested about chmod 700 isn't a good idea)
[05:35] <Muxec> Is there any chance to have l2tp support in linux un the future?
[05:36] <jhaig> iulian_: If it is, it will probably not be a Linux solution.  More likely, you will need some fancy electronics.

[05:39] <iulian_> jhaig, yes this is what I do now. But I don't need it every time so... Anyway, I'll stay to this solution
[05:39] <variant> oldude67: you can replace gnome-screensaver with xscreensaver and all the same savers are there

[05:44] <variant> bobbob1016: try, it is probably available via apt get, or you could use dd which is simple but dangerous if your not carefull
[05:44] <oldude67> so i would type in apt-get install xscreensavers?

[05:48] <ffm> malsyned: Thanks.
[05:48] <ffm> malsyned: Will do.
[05:48] <Pici> zylthinking: Take a look at the documentation in /usr/share/doc/console-tools and the other /usr/share/doc/console-* folders, since now these are the packages used to set up the console font at boot time.

[05:52] <ffm> malsyned: So, it dosnt work. I get a Exit of 78, whatever that means...
[05:52] <l3mr> MalMen: just install the drivers for your graphics card.
[05:52] <pike_> wubba: putty is also essential tool on windows boxes to have
[05:52] <variant> MalMen: ah, then you might need to script it a little
[05:52] <MalMen> hmm
[05:52] <malsyned> ffm: I don't know anything about getting mutt and esmtp to play nice together.  Sounds like your config file's file permissions are too open, though.  Usually programs will refuse to load files if they contain sensitive information but are world- or group-readable.
[05:53] <Lobosque> how do i mount a ext3 partition from live cd?
[05:53] <station2> what will be more easy for the internet cafe users?  gnome or kde?

[05:54] <station2> second question, it is possible to run msn messenger by wine?
[05:54] <station2> somebody try it?
[05:54] <malsyned> ffm: yup.  the file is world- and group-readable.  you need to get rid if the world-read and group-read bits on that file.  You know about the chmod command?
[05:54] <MalMen> station2 no, i was tryed
[05:55] <ExIG> station2: AFIK it can be done, im not a big wine user though, aMSN looks the same as msn if thats all you need
[05:55] <malsyned> station2: does Gaim (/pidgin) not handle MSN Messenger well enough for you?
[05:55] <MalMen> use Kopete is very msn like
[05:55] <mzaza> hello, I've removed compiz and installed beryl. and Since then sometimes when I open any application terminal, gaim, etc... some times nothing appears and other times just few things of the program appears and then i've to keep on trying to close it and open it. any ideas why does that happen?
[05:55] <oldude67> variant: is xscreensavers in synaptic?
[05:55] <variant> oldude67: yes
[05:55] <ffm> malsyned: Basicly, chmod *** is owner, groupt, then world.
[05:55] <variant> oldude67: xscreesaver not xscreesavers
[05:55] <MalMen> you can use aMSN, its a "copy" of MSN
[05:55] <omri> what does the dfsg in mysql5 mean?
[05:55] <MalMen> but kopete is more user like
[05:55] <ant___> station2 : http://appdb.winehq.org/appview.php?iVersionId=3619&iTestingId=2227
[05:55] <station2> ExiG i have amsn installed its nice but some cosmetics will need.
[05:56] <oldude67> variant: ok well didnt try synaptic but said it couldnt find file for xscreensavers maybe typo
[05:56] <malsyned> ffm: right.  the program is requiring 710 permissions or less on that file, so (again, without knowing your particular situation at all) it sounds like you have to use chown to give it those permissions before you can go forward.
[05:56] <ffm> malsyned: So, what should I chmod it?
[05:56] <fsckr> I have a shared folder on my xp box that has my music on it.  am I able to mount that directory so that I can listen to my mp3s from ubuntu?
[05:56] <ExIG> kopete is more user friendly, but in an internet cafe people would need to set up a new account everyime they wanted to log in
[05:56] <padde32> Someone have a sec in private, for som install / first run questions
[05:56] <malsyned> er, chmod.  not chown.  typo.
[05:56] <MalMen> station2 try kopete :) is very use friendly
[05:56] <ffm> malsyned: So, what is the diff between chmod and chown
[05:56] <malsyned> ffm: I meant chmod.  sorry.
[05:56] <pike_> !samba | fsckr
[05:56] <ubotu> fsckr: samba is is the way to cooperate with Windows environments. Links with more info: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MountWindowsSharesPermanently and http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/serverguide/C/windows-networking.html - Samba can be administered via the web with SWAT
[05:56] <adict> somebody with madwifi experience? or somebody with Asus F3TC AP008
[05:56] <ffm> malsyned: kk.
[05:56] <oldude67> variant: says newest already installed?
[05:56] <malsyned> just FYI, though, chown changes the owner of the file, chmod changes the permission bits (a.k.a. "mode")
[05:56] <ant___> anyone know the command to look at folder block sizes under /, its something like df
[05:56] <cholera> I have installed the mplayer plugin for Firefox and I've also tried the totem plugin. I can't seem to view avi files embedded in web pages with firefox
[05:57] <Doof> test
[05:57] <Doof> sweet. works.
[05:57] <strabes> cholera: mozilla-mplayer ?
[05:57] <ffm> malsyned: Now, I get a nasty SMTP server problem Connection refused
[05:57] <LjL> ant___: du?
[05:57] <oldude67> variant: is there a help page on this...as you are busy...
[05:57] <Muxec> cholera firefox-mplayer works as for me, firefox-totem does not
[05:57] <cholera> strabes: sudo apt-get install mozilla-mplayer
[05:57] <ExIG> haha
[05:57] <pike_> cholera: id maybe remove the plugins you arent using. totem id remove and reopen firefox
[05:57] <ant___> LjL : there ya go, thank you
[05:57] <ExIG> sorry wrong window
[05:57] <variant> oldude67: then you have it installed, gnome-screensaver is just a frontend, disable the screensaver in the settings menu and add xscreensaver to your session startup. you can configure it by running xscreensaver-dem
[05:57] <Muxec> cholera remove totem it is crappy
[05:57] <variant> oldude67: then you have it installed, gnome-screensaver is just a frontend, disable the screensaver in the settings menu and add xscreensaver to your session startup. you can configure it by running xscreensaver-demo
[05:58] <variant> oldude67: yeah sorry, am at work here :)
[05:58] <aleksanteri> how can i create permament aliases?
[05:58] <strabes> cholera: yeah remove the totem firefox plugins. they suck anyway. check this page: http://strabes.wordpress.com/2007/02/17/get-ytmndcom-pages-to-work-in-ubuntu/
[05:58] <cholera> I have tried both, not keeping both installed, just tried one tested it and then tried another

[05:58] <mzaza> Guys, I'm using ubuntu 7.04 and I used to run compiz. Then I've removed it and installed beryl through the repository and installed screenlets. Since then I've got wried problems. When I open gaim sometimes I see nothing, sometimes I see few things. Sometimes when I open the terminal I just see a white page. Any ideas?
[05:58] <Inquisitoramous> I'm running Feisty and when I install azureus it loads breifly then closes... any ideas?
[05:58] <malsyned> ffm: yeah, that's about as far as I can get you.  I don't know much about mutt, and even less about esmtp.  Time to drop me and find someone else to help, I'm afraid.
[05:58] <strabes> Inquisitoramous: do you have all the java nonsense installed?
[05:58] <ziggy23> How do I run fsck if it needs exclusive access to the disk?
[05:58] <neverblue> IndyGunFreak, use the ubuntu guide, there is an alternative install
[05:58] <ffm> malsyned: Thanksfo ryour help!
[05:59] <malsyned> ffm: np
[05:59] <station2> thanks all.
[05:59] <Inquisitoramous> Strabes: I believe so, I installed under synaptic and it shows all that crap that goes with it
[05:59] <oldude67> variant: its ok , dont need a newbie messin with ya too boot....is it in ubuntu's help files on how to do that?
[05:59] <padde32> 1287 trying to get support... and someone said Ubunto was easy to use  haha
[05:59] <aleksanteri> how can i create permament aliases?
[05:59] <dlew> Hi. I upgraded my home box to edgy last night.  Seemed to go fine.  Now at work, when I ssh into home, I have what appear to be library problems. E.g.: "mutt: error while loading shared libraries: libc.so.6: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory"  "ls: error while loading shared libraries: librt.so.1: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory"
[05:59] <cholera> strabes: got the link. The only thing is, this is just a problem on one particular machine, I've looked at all plugins for my other box and nothing is different, plugin wise
[05:59] <dlew> Any thoughts on fixes?
[05:59] <mzaza> Guys, I'm using ubuntu 7.04 and I used to run compiz. Then I've removed it and installed beryl through the repository and installed screenlets. Since then I've got wried problems.

[05:59] <oldude67> variant: or can i google it?
[06:00] <strabes> cholera: do avi files work outside of firefox?
[06:00] <strabes> because they should
[06:00] <zylthinking> Pici: seem  /etc/default/console-setup is the configuration of console_tools?
[06:00] <cholera> strabes: tested in xine, vlc and mplayer, all play
[06:01] <strabes> cholera: strange; I don't know how to help you. Have you posted in ubuntuforums?

[06:01] <zylthinking> the file last modify time is 4-20-2007, the time I install ubuntu 7.04, not today
[06:02] <Muxec> cholera: apt-get remove totem totem-common
[06:02] <Inquisitoramous> Okay, I reinstalled and I'm still getting the same problem with Azereus, it briefly shows the language selection screen then it closes out
[06:02] <cholera> strabes: not yet, I'm still looking around, but it seems I've exhausted all resources. I'm going to backtrack a little and see if there is something else I have done to cause the problem.
[06:02] <LjL> !fsck > ziggy23    (ziggy23, see the private message from Ubotu)
[06:02] <cholera> Muxec: ok will do
[06:02] <strabes> cholera: ok good luck
[06:02] <tau> hello, I'm trying to upgrade from dapper to edgy (well, actually to feisty but it seems I need to upgrade to edgy first), and I was told I have to free up 548MB of space in /usr, but that drive already has 760MB free - what gives!?
[06:02] <Muxec> cholera: I use mplayer for video and banshee for music and it is x13 vetter than totem
[06:03] <cholera> strabes: I'm going to take a look at that link you sent as well, thanks
[06:03] <aleksanteri> how can i create permament aliases?
[06:03] <strabes> cholera: it's basically telling you to do what i told you to do
[06:03] <oldude67> tau: you may need that and the 548
[06:03] <Tormentor> Greetings.
[06:04] <cholera> Muxec: I'm new to linix and I was under the impression that totem worked best, since it is default?
[06:04] <Inquisitoramous> If I installed Azereus through synaptic, it grabs all the other programs needed to run it right? or do I need something else still?
[06:04] <Tormentor> I just upgraded to 7.04. My question is, the steps remain the same to install Beryl? (Meaning steps from the Community Docs)
[06:04] <liquidat> Q: Is the hwdb dead? And if yes, when will it be back again?
[06:04] <cholera> *linux
[06:04] <tau> oldude67, you mean it wants like 1.3GB to upgrade!?
[06:04] <quaal> what should i backup before upgrading to 7.04
[06:04] <quaal> so i can restore everything
[06:04] <quaal> if necessary
[06:04] <hoffmanc> cholera, bad impression
[06:04] <LjL> aleksanteri: put them in your .bashrc
[06:05] <aleksanteri> LjL: where is it located? at ~?
[06:05] <hoffmanc> cholera, I think I can count on one hand the number of times totem has successfully played something for me
[06:05] <Flannel> Tormentor: no.  They're different in feisty, because beryl is now in the repositories.
[06:05] <LjL> aleksanteri: yes
[06:05] <aleksanteri> LjL: ok
[06:05] <oldude67> tau: if your using a download probably it has to down load the files to load and so on
[06:05] <oldude67> tau: have to have some tmp space.

[06:06] <Tormentor> Flannel: Means I can make a simple apt-get? Also, what about the Drivers for the Video Cards?
[06:06] <hoffmanc> cholera, get mplayer, it plays *everything*; you can pipe it the string "my favorite movie," and it will play it, I shit you not.
[06:06] <rdesh> anybody on ubuntu 64-bit notice big speed differences??
[06:06] <cholera> hoffmanc: yeah, I think I'm beginning to understand
[06:06] <quaal> is there any way to make the places menu on the top task bar right clickable.. so i can eject removable disks easily ?
[06:06] <oldude67> tau: but ask someone that knows more for sure...just the problem i ran into
[06:06] <liquidat> I would recommend vlc - that is the same as on windows.
[06:06] <albert> hi, my windows needs to be installed on ide0, but i only can install it on ide1. if i manually switch the harddrives and install windows on the former ide1 is ubuntu able to boot (after grub-reasignment) from ide1?
[06:07] <Ramunas> After installing KDE my fonts got broken, here's a comparison before and after: http://img470.imageshack.us/img470/2360/screenshotzl5.png can anybody help me fix it?
[06:07] <quaal> albert, should be fine
[06:07] <tau> oldude67, that's an awful lot of space, especially considering I'm guessing I'm going to have to download the same or probably more to go from edgy to feisty
[06:07] <Flannel> Tormentor: feisty includes some new fangled driver something or other as well.
[06:07] <albert> quaal, k, thx
[06:07] <pike_> albert: as long as you enter the bios and make sure it boots the ubuntu hd. that or boot from livecd and install grub to the windows drive mbr
[06:07] <oldude67> tau the tmp file will probably go away after the install.
[06:07] <Tormentor> Flannel: Roger That. Thanks for help. :-) I'll try it out
[06:07] <Muxec> cholera: totem is default for ideological reasons, I guess
[06:07] <cholera> hoffmanc: it's just all this configuration for plugins and what not for Firefox and other media players. I understand that this is a rights issue, just a little daunting for a new guy :)
[06:08] <albert> pike_: as far as i know needs grub to be reinstalled anyways
[06:08] <Ramunas> anybody?
[06:08] <tau> oldude67, ok - so I could conceivably symlink the temp directory to another drive that has more space available?
[06:08] <albert> i didn't read the how to yet, wanted to study it during the install

[06:09] <aleksanteri> uhhh. no
[06:09] <liquidat> aleksanteri: Will it ever be up again? I mean, it is down for weeks!
[06:09] <aaroncampbell> Are there any java-based office applications?  Or text editors?
[06:09] <aleksanteri> not *
[06:09] <hoffmanc> assuming you have the right sources

[06:15] <stefg> tau: you'll need approx. 1,2 G of space for an upgrade. If you put /var/cach/apt/archives on a separate partition you need approx. 500 MB

[06:15] <M_Bison1> i've read several threads about them, but all they end up doing is crashing xorg
[06:16] <aleksanteri> Ramunas: just got helped but i tend to bump into new problems so there is no sense to part for a few minutes :p

[06:16] <M_Bison1> not
[06:16] <Tormentor> Greetings again
[06:16] <zylthinking> Pici: it's not stange newer install new kernel, I think, and I've searched web and all place to get the answer, heh
[06:17] <T-H> stefg: i said i need Multiverse and Universe Repository DVD
[06:17] <tau> Is it possible to upgrade dapper directly to feisty?
[06:17] <T-H> not the Ubuntu Instal CD/DVD
[06:17] <M_Bison1> anyone know how to get a 5 button + vertical & horizontal scroll mouse working in feisty?
[06:18] <murali> hello all.. i'm a newbie.. and i need help to configure internet over a LAN. .. where mine is the only linux machine,where as all the others are windows machines including the server.
[06:18] <thorlin> I'm looking for some help with a Linksys wmp54gs PCI wireless card for my FF install on my kid's desktop.
[06:18] <stefg> T-H: hmm, not sure if shipit sends these... but distrowatch.com for example is full ofads from services which charge little to send you the DVD
[06:18] <thorlin> I've spent a week reading the forums and I can't get things to work.
[06:19] <george20> hello all, can i get support in here?
[06:19] <Tormentor> On Ubu 6.10 I had my 2nd HD mounted (by editing /etc/fstab) and It worked fine. Now on 7.04 It just shows on "My PC" window one drive named  "111.8 GB Volume" how can I change that to the way it was on 6.10?
[06:19] <M_Bison1> i think ubuntu just sucks with multi button mice & wireless cards
[06:19] <jhaig> murali: Does the LAN have DHCP?  If so, it will probably get set up automatically.
[06:19] <george20> I am stuck at the partition screen when installing, it won't go any further
[06:19] <Ramunas> M_Bison1: I got my aditional mouse buttons to work, there are few tutorials on the forums
[06:19] <cholera> I removed totem, This would be a good example. I have a small family website, when I test with Firefox the embedded avi file, nothing plays. If I choose open in external browser nothing plays. But when tested in IE(wine) and on other box, it plays? If I download the file through FF, only then can I play with app of choice
[06:20] <M_Bison1> in feisty?
[06:20] <kane77> M_Bison1, i'd say it rocks... the first distro that got wifi right...
[06:20] <george20> can anyone help me out?
[06:20] <stefg> george20: the popular solution to that frequent problem is using the alternate install CD. see !alternate
[06:20] <george20> i created two alternate cds
[06:20] <george20> still no luck
[06:20] <george20> !alternate
[06:20] <ubotu> The Alternate CD (available as of Dapper) is the classical text-mode installation CD. Use it if you wish to upgrade via CD, or for an "expert" mode install. For normal installs, use the Desktop CD, which is also a "Live" CD - See also !Minimal
[06:21] <murali> jhaig:yes it does.. ans i tried running the dhclient eth0 command but it still doesn work.. i'm not even able to ping other computers over the network ,let alone get internet access.. i'm using an external NIC
[06:21] <stefg> george20: any hints what the installer might not like?
[06:21] <T-H> stefg: www.thelinuxstore.ca has a product "Ubuntu 7.04 Feisty Complete (6 DVD's)" which contain everythign i need.
[06:21] <george20> i just get a cursor spinning at the partition screen
[06:21] <M_Bison1> i've followed about 6 different guides on the forums, each one just lead to a crashed xorg, with a windows-like blue screen
[06:21] <george20> ive checked the discs, used different brands etc
[06:21] <T-H> but it cost around 35$ without shipment charges
[06:21] <cdavis> what provides /bin/mail ?
[06:21] <T-H> which is way beyond by budget
[06:22] <stefg> T-H: see... no problem to get hold of the stuff, even without broadband
[06:22] <michaelpo> how do i format a ntfs harddisk with 3 partition? i've tried using gparted, could not format, cfdisk, deleted the 3 partition, then write a new fat32 partition, but only 1st partition hdd space is available, the other 2 space is somewhere... dont know how to use fdisk, is there no format command?
[06:22] <T-H> *my budget
[06:22] <M_Bison1> ramunas, what version of ubuntu are you on?
[06:22] <zylthinking> Pici
[06:22] <Tormentor> Sorry, PC crashed.
[06:22] <Ramunas> M_Bison1: feisty
[06:22] <Pici> zylthinking: ?
[06:22] <M_Bison1> what mouse are you using?
[06:22] <george20> !alternate
[06:22] <ubotu> The Alternate CD (available as of Dapper) is the classical text-mode installation CD. Use it if you wish to upgrade via CD, or for an "expert" mode install. For normal installs, use the Desktop CD, which is also a "Live" CD - See also !Minimal
[06:22] <stefg> george20: but the Live CD works?
[06:22] <T-H> i was lookign for alternative
[06:23] <george20> yes it does
[06:23] <thorlin> can anyone in here help me out with a PCI wireless card installation in my fiesty desktop installation?
[06:23] <Ramunas> M_Bison1: Logitech RX300
[06:23] <stefg> george20: so are you on that now?
[06:23] <jhaig> murali: What do you get if you type "/sbin/ifconfig"?  Is there a block starting eth0?
[06:23] <george20> no
[06:23] <george20> xp
[06:23] <M_Bison1> did you just edit the xorg.conf file or is there something i'm missing?>
[06:23] <dlew> cdavis: mailx or mailutisl
[06:23] <george20> going to dual boot
[06:23] <cdavis> dlew, thanks
[06:23] <dlew> cdavis: that is: mailx or mailutils
[06:23] <soundray> cdavis: there is no /bin/mail in ubuntu -- only /usr/bin/mail (mailx/mailutils)
[06:23] <adict> has anybody here have experiences with madwifi? o
[06:23] <stefg> george20: do you use automatic or manual partitioning?
[06:24] <Tormentor> Question was, on Ubu 6.10 I had my 2nd HD mounted by editing my etc/fstab file, and it worked properly (Mount point and such) now on 7.04 it just shows a "11.8 GB Volume" on the "Computer" Window. How can I solve that and change it to the way it was on 6.10?
[06:24] <zylthinking> Pici: thanks I'll read it, and hope find the real reason.
[06:24] <george20> i was using the option that said resize partition and install ubuntu on the second one
[06:24] <dlew> cdavis: for things lke this, try apt-file search /bin/mail
[06:24] <george20> but it gets stuck at that screen
[06:24] <josue_m> hi, I just installed ubuntu Feisty and I'm looking to get some themes, went to this site http://www.gnome-look.org  but none can be used with system - preferences - themes... any idea suggestion?
[06:24] <murali> jhaig:yes.. i also tried using static ip and using the server address as the gateway address.. the server's ip is <IP_ADDRESS> and i used <IP_ADDRESS>...
[06:24] <Paavo_> Seems like the KDE in Feisty now defaults to moving the mouse cursor some distance inside the new desktop when flipping desktops. Is there any way to disable this? It's very annoying.
[06:24] <Ramunas> M_Bison1: just xorg.conf
[06:25] <pike_> Tormentor: well you can 'sudo fdisk -l' to get a list im not sure how to change the gui
[06:25] <michaelpo> george, i use cfdisk, manual i think... i had to delete drive c, d, e, then create a new partition, make it bootable, select fat32 format....
[06:25] <jhaig> murali: Can you ping the server's ip?
[06:25] <stefg> george20: hmmm, might be that your partition table looks strange to the installer, or your win-partition isn't in good shape. try a chkdsk i win and defragment he win-drive. that might change something
[06:25] <M_Bison1> ramunas: is there any way i could see the edits you made to get it working?
[06:26] <MalMen> ubuntu have any tool to configure the xorg choosing the grafic driver to use ^?
[06:26] <george20> ok thanks
[06:26] <michaelpo> there is no chkdsk command...
[06:26] <Ramunas> M_Bison1: I really can't remember...
[06:26] <george20> ill be back going to do that now

[06:30] <smo> how can i make a dump on linux for my soundcard and the exact chipset
[06:30] <nils_> the guy who installed some of my servers set the language to german, which is my native language, but I'd rather have the operating system english. dpkg-reconfigure locales as used in debian doesn't work, how do I do this in ubuntu?

[06:32] <teicah> hi, my monitor diplays wavy horizontal lines.. is it going bad? same thing when plugged to another computer..
[06:33] <teicah> its worse at the console

[06:34] <teicah> if i need to get a new monitor.. should I get: crt or flat lcd?
[06:34] <stefg> minerale: that would better fit in #ubuntu-offtopic
[06:34] <Ramunas> After installing KDE my fonts got broken, here's a comparison before and after: http://img470.imageshack.us/img470/2360/screenshotzl5.png can anybody help me fix this?
[06:34] <MIST_`> Hi i've been trying to install ubuntu for the past 2 days and i've finally figured out that ubuntu doesn't like my graphics card as it cannot load a display manager. *I've figured out since i can run knoppix live i should be able to copy the module that knoppix uses and put it into the ubuntu config. The problem is i have no idea how to figure out which module knoppix uses and i certainly don't know how to put it so that ubuntu uses it...
[06:34] <mobutu> i wish my sound would work after hibernation
[06:34] <adict> Has somebody here ASUS F3Tc AP008?

[06:37] <deadeyes> what is the tool to shut down services permanently in ubuntu?
[06:37] <Vijaymateti> is any one gonna answer?
[06:37] <stefg> Ramunas: they are not broken, it's just that the anti aliasing settings got messed. what happens if you just set them agagin in the Font applet (back to 'Best form' or LCD) ?
[06:37] <deadeyes> or start them on bootup
[06:37] <pike_> teicah: hard to believe but dell makes decent lcds

[06:39] <usser> Vijaymateti: for that u'll need vmware workstation not just vmware player
[06:39] <stefg> Ramunas: regenearte the fontcache
[06:39] <nils_> sorry for repeating, how do I set ubuntu to english permanently?
[06:39] <deadeyes> what is the tool to change which services start at bootup in ubuntu?
[06:39] <Ramunas> stefg: how do I do that?

[06:39] <hylje> yes
[06:39] <concept10> deadeyes, sysv-rc-conf

[06:39] <deadeyes> concept10: thanks!
[06:39] <__Ace__> can someone tell me what character I CAN NOT use with a filename/foldername in linux?
[06:39] <Vijaymateti> pike_: what does it do?

[06:39] <pike_> usser: prob
[06:39] <usser> brussel_: yes u can
[06:40] <Vijaymateti> pike_: can we make vmimages out of vmserver
[06:40] <stefg> Ramunas: there is a command... just can't remember. sudo dpkg-reconfigure fontconfig won't hurt either way
[06:40] <mjr> __Ace__, "/" and that's it
[06:40] <brussel_> thanks hylje and usser, i have plenty of ram so that's not a worry
[06:40] <OuZo> is there a thesaurus for ubuntu ? thanks

[06:43] <Pelo> Johnston,  check the man page,  man chroot
[06:43] <deafboy> it's not cedega's fault
[06:43] <weas3l> Pelo, i've got feisty runnin on a gateway laptop :D, but i agree... once the dell users get ubuntu, *shudder*
[06:44] <deafboy> i'm getting terrible performance in wow in cedega and it wont even run wine under feisty, can anyone help me?

[06:45] <Pelo> weas3l, it's not that I expect ubu won'T work properly out of the box on the new dell/ubuntu comps,  but for everthing else they'll come here and  I don'T think they will all be techsavy
[06:45] <Ramunas> stefg: regenerating font cache didn't help :/
[06:45] <usser> Johnston: if u get to terminal just do sudo dpkg --purge <whatever package broke the installation>
[06:45] <deafboy> stefg: yep, 8.36 fglrx drivers but im getting terrible performance, and running wow in wine causes a hard lock = /
[06:45] <weas3l> oh, i agree. i'm kinda interested to see what packages dell will install before shipping to make it easier for the user.
[06:46] <weas3l> that and 'why won't my windows software work on this machine?'
[06:46] <Ramunas> stefg: and strange thing, fonts are only broken in terminal and Opera it seems
[06:46] <stefg> deafboy: verify by 'glxinfo | grep direct' .. it's gotta say yes
[06:47] <usser> deafboy do glxinfo | grep direct
[06:47] <usser> bah

[06:48] <mobutu> sound after hibernate worked with edgy.  no lnoger works .  what did i do wrong
[06:48] <TECH_1> I have a minor problem....opera browser does not play video clips.
[06:49] <usser> deafboy: paste your glxinfo here http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/
[06:49] <Pelo> TECH_1, I think you're gonna need to check with the opera ppl for opera pluggins, for mplayer probably
[06:49] <pihus> Isn't there a way for F-spot to monitor folders with pictures already in them, just like picasa does?
[06:49] <pihus> or is the "import" option the only one?
[06:50] <michaelpo> jrib: will unmount and try to format...
[06:50] <Jakke77> /usr/lib/jvm/java-6-sun-<IP_ADDRESS>/jre/lib/i386/ put these  your opera browser settings
[06:50] <deafboy> usser: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/18624/
[06:50] <TECH_1> I have all of them..flash/java6......just cant get them running.
[06:50] <Pelo> pihus, you might find an anser to that in the Fspot faq page , if they have one
[06:50] <usser> pihus: just install picasa =)
[06:50] <jrib> michaelpo: use a livecd if you need to
[06:50] <TECH_1> But your right..seems like a opera issue....thanks.
[06:50] <R3ddy> stefg: sudo apt-get install mplayer w32codecs didnt work
[06:51] <Pelo> TECH_1,  I still think you'll have more luck in a channel for opera,  I'm not trying to get rid of you , I'm just saying they are more likely to know
[06:51] <michaelpo> jrib: its an external ntfs hdd enclosure... connected with usb cable
[06:51] <usser> deafboy: yep drivers are ok
[06:51] <pihus> usser, picasa ain't that good in linux :) And it also doesn't support uploading to picasaweb
[06:51] <TECH_1> I understand...thank you for your time.

[06:51] <pbx> Do people make their own meta-packages to ease setup of new (or wiped-clean) machines?   But everytime i try to install anything through synaptic it tells me the dependencies "are not installable"
[06:52] <Petey> Hey guys, fast question... trying to connect to a Windows share in Unbuntu.  The share grants full access to "everyone" yet I can't see to connect.  Could be an issue with how I'm formatting the information.  Can anyone give me a hand real quick?
[06:52] <pike_> R3ddy: i didnt know w32codecs were in repos anymore. search for them on help.ubuntu.com i think you need to download the deb file
[06:52] <deafboy> did they ever fix the vesa driver that comes with feisty or is everyone that installs with an x1000s card still gonna get a black screen of death?
[06:52] <Pelo> pbx,  I made a little bash script using apt-get install,  works very well
[06:52] <R3ddy> but i want realplayer
[06:52] <usser> deafboy: u did an upgrade or a clean install?
[06:52] <stefg> R3ddy: that was a half of a joke... mplayer with the win-codec package plays real-files. no need to install another proprietary player. but someone send you a link to the instructions of the real realplayer i saw
[06:52] <deafboy> usser: upgrade, clean install was garbage
[06:52] <bgrupe> pbx: it'll get useful if you have many machines and create an online repository with such a metapackage ;>
[06:52] <deafboy> usser: many many things were broken on the live cd
[06:52] <R3ddy> hmm ok
[06:52] <usser> deafboy: bah i got black screen with my 9800xt ati card
[06:52] <michaelpo> jrib: i dont know why, but gparted is "scanning all devices" for a long time now....
[06:52] <Pelo> R3ddy,  someone already gave you a link to do get realplayer,
[06:53] <pbx> Pelo: Cool, just a sequence of install commands? Any gotchas. bgrupe: just this one machine at the moment, but I agree
[06:53] <pike_> pbx: dpkg can also generate a list file. not sure of syntax
[06:53] <deafboy> usser: feisty so far has been a big step backwards
[06:53] <usser> deafboy: just two days ago
[06:53] <pbx> pike_: Like, it can generate a list of the stuff I installed over the raw dist?   How can i change the refresh rate of the monitor to 75Hrz when the highest possible is 60?
[06:54] <michaelpo> jrib: i think i will reboot....
[06:54] <elquesea> hi
[06:55] <sebsebseb> I used Samba myself  some time last year,  so that I could  write and open files on the NTFS external hard disk which is connected to the XP comp.  Yes do that from Ubuntu.  however it was such a long time ago that I carn't even remember the commands I had to use to do it.  also now I am helping someone with his computers.  and he wants to be able to move copy over files from Linux to his other lap top which is networked
[06:55] <Pelo> pbx,   you can list more then one package for a single apt-get install  you just put a space in between,  mine also uses  dpkg for already downloaded deb files saved to my home folder, you can put  wget commands in there to add 3rd party repos   I even have some copy commands for some stuff,  and I am looking into usuing "sed" to automaticaly edit some config files
[06:55] <usser> Johnston: fixed it??
[06:55] <deafboy> monio: sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[06:55] <jrib> michaelpo: why?
[06:55] <sebsebseb> together.  to his other one that runs XP.  also his external hard disk is NTFS.  so it makes sense of course that Windows writes to it and not Linux.  yep Samba can do that.  and then he can plug it in to  XP or Linux when he wants to.
[06:55] <stefg> Kogs: no... your sources.list might be faulty. waht do you get when you sudo apt-get update?
[06:55] <michaelpo> jrib: it is "scanning all devices" for 5 mins now
[06:55] <pike_> monio: http://help.ubuntu.com/community/FixVideoResolutionHowto
[06:55] <Johnston> usser: im getting there
[06:55] <pbx> Pelo: Cool, thanks for the details.
[06:55] <monio> thx
[06:55] <deafboy> usser: are you sportin feisty or edgy?
[06:55] <elquesea> how coul I edit a file from the recovery mode
[06:55] <sebsebseb> help please  also is there a way to use Samba without commands being needed?  or  can the external hard disk and XP partion be mounted in Ubuntu let's say  and files just copyed in there through Samba.  and then  no commands needed?
[06:55] <jrib> elquesea: nano -w file
[06:55] <usser> deafboy: frankly i saw no difference so far
[06:55] <elquesea> perfect
[06:55] <jrib> michaelpo: hmm ok, why not just close gparted?
[06:55] <pike_> elquesea: mount -o remount,rw /   should work
[06:55] <elquesea> thx
[06:55] <Ax3> omg
[06:56] <Boohbah> Responding to user pressure, Dell Inc. confirmed it will preinstall the Ubuntu distribution of the Linux operating system on some of its computers.

[06:56] <Esteth> i'm going to be upgrading from an ATI X800 to an nVidia 8800GTS tomorrow. what order should i remove/install drivers and the cards to ensure a "seamless" transition?

[06:56] <deafboy> usser: only one thing didn't work under edgy and that was my MS reader but i dont think the kernel supports it yet
[06:57] <usser> Esteth: deinstall the ati proprietary drivers first, if u had installed them at all
[06:57] <jrib> michaelpo: I see, i guess you can try rebooting then since I don't know what would cause that
[06:57] <Boohbah> mark shuttlecock will be able to take another space trip soon with all that dell cash!
[06:57] <Kogs> stefg: oh I see what happened, i installed it over the network and now it's trying to find the updates on the computer I installed it on instead of the Ubuntu repositories

[06:59] <usser> deafboy: omg whats so pro about it??
[06:59] <sebsebseb> or something yes,  but there is talk about data loss
[06:59] <usser> deafboy: oh sorry
[06:59] <sebsebseb> if Linux writes to NTFS
[06:59] <deafboy> usser: lol
[06:59] <usser> deafboy: its not pro reader, its the card thats pro =))
[06:59] <Pici> !ntfs
[06:59] <ubotu> To view your Windows/Mac partitions see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AutomaticallyMountPartitions . For write access see !ntfs-3g or !fuse

[07:01] <usser> why why why
[07:01] <sharms> usser: they both work.
[07:01] <mon^rch> sebsebseb: installing ntfs-config will install the ntfs-3g driver and a handy little gui to mount/unmount ntfs drives :)
[07:02] <Pelo> usser, ask in #ubuntu-effects
[07:02] <usser> sharms: not for me they dont =)

[07:02] <sebsebseb> ok, but he might still want to directlly send files over to his other lap top running XP
[07:02] <sebsebseb> and so Samba?

[07:10] <Pelo> Possum,  no more then what we've read on the various blog , and a lot of speculation about this channel getting swamped
[07:10] <Possum> I'd really like to support Dell in this, despite my general dislike for them

[07:14] <FreshPrince> hi ppl
[07:14] <FreshPrince> how do i start ssh?
[07:14] <Pelo> Lobosque, hmmm,  try and make sure your new hdd is plugged in as a slave drive and not a master
[07:14] <FreshPrince> with which command?
[07:14] <sharms> Nvening_: your issue is with third party sources.  You probably used automatix etc
[07:14] <aoirthoir> hooraaaay
[07:14] <aoirthoir> :D
[07:14] <jadhog> FreshPrince: server or client?
[07:14] <wirelessmonkey> authentication failed? sorry Nvening_   | did you use dist-upgrade?  Sounds like third party issues maybe.
[07:14] <sharms> FreshPrince: sudo apt-get install ssh
[07:14] <FreshPrince> jadhog, client.. i want that someone connect with ssh to ym computer
[07:15] <Odi> hello... please.
[07:15] <FreshPrince> sharms, ok and then? how do i start the sshd ?
[07:15] <Pelo> R3ddy, http://www.real.com/linux, just dl and install
[07:15] <Gorgapor> !nx
[07:15] <sharms> FreshPrince: that starts it.
[07:15] <Nvening_> so automatix stops me being able to upgrade??
[07:15] <jadhog> autostarts FreshPrince
[07:15] <ubotu> FreeNX is advanced remote desktop technology. For more information and install instructions, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FreeNX
[07:15] <sharms> !automatix
[07:15] <ubotu> Automatix2 is a script that tries to install some software, and often fails and breaks systems. We don't provide support for it, and we strongly discourage its use. Problems caused by Automatix are often hard to track and solve, and it might sometimes be easier to !install a fresh copy of Ubuntu. See also !WorksForMe
[07:15] <FreshPrince> sharms, ok
[07:15] <FreshPrince> jadhog, ok thx
[07:15] <Nvening_> gah, cba for a clean install lol
[07:15] <Odi> anybody knows some way to delay the autostart of some program using the session manager
[07:15] <Gorgapor> !vnc
[07:15] <ubotu> VNC is a protocol for remote desktop. https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VNCOverSSH describes how to use it securely.  It works best over fast connections, otherwise look at !FreeNX
[07:15] <wirelessmonkey> Nvening: no, automatix installs 3rd party repositiories.  Comment them out while doing the upgrade.

[07:16] <Nvening_> kk
[07:16] <One2abusE> thanks to komit if he/she is still here your advice sent me down the the right track and my wireless works again.
[07:16] <Pelo> Lobosque,  that was all I could offer,  try the forum or ask again periodicaly , maybe someone will come in who knows
[07:16] <turbolover> i put a dapper draker server install on a sparc clone, and when it boots into the OS, i get some weird moving jaggy distortion type effect on part of the screen, anyone familiar with that?
[07:16] <AndyC1> Odi: try sleep seconds && command
[07:16] <turbolover> i can still read the text

[07:17] <albert> what would you recommend? installing windows first and afterwards ubuntu or otherwise?
[07:17] <Odi> AndyC1, how is that
[07:17] <wirelessmonkey> turbolover: Are you using a desktop manager?  If not, it sounds like a hardware issue.
[07:17] <AndyC1> Odi: ?
[07:18] <turbolover> wireless: its not running X at all
[07:18] <Pelo> albert,  windows first then ubuntu that way when grub is installed it will see the windows and add it to the boot menu
[07:18] <AndyC1> Odi: just try filling the field with "sleep (seconds to sleep here) && command"
[07:18] <AndyC1> without quotes
[07:18] <albert> Pelo: kk
[07:18] <turbolover> and it had no problems when solaris was on it, and has no problems in openboot
[07:18] <Odi> oki doki, i will try it
[07:18] <albert> Pelo: as i guessed
[07:18] <sharms> wirelessmonkey, turbolover: I assume it has to do with sparcs needing to use the frame buffer for consoles. I don't have a sparc to test with, but it could be an issue
[07:18] <MarkCh> My PC is connected to 2 networks, one is for the internet, the other to another PC which shares the net connection with my PC.
[07:18] <MarkCh> The net connection is shared using firestarter, but every time I start up my PC, the eth number changes so that I have to set up firestarter to the eth number ubuntu chooses at boot. So at 1 time, the PC I share the net connection to becomes eth1 while at another it is eth2, is there a way to fix this problem so that I could give this network a permanent number, like eth1 perhaps? I never had the problem with eth0 though. Can anybody help? Thank you!
[07:18] <Pelo> albert,  I'm speaking from expereince I did it the other way
[07:19] <albert> Pelo, sounds like an experience :D
[07:19] <sharms> turbolover: best thing to do is read: http://doc.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/install/sparc/
[07:19] <Pelo> albert,  it would have been easier if windows had been on the same hdd,  I had to remap something , and it took forever to find the instructions
[07:20] <Skaag> what's the deal with openssh-server not allowing my to ssh into the box remotely?
[07:20] <Skaag> my -> me
[07:20] <Nvening_> Ok, i uninstalled frostwire, which automatix installed, but its still saying "Authentication failed - Authenticating the upgrade failed. There may be a problem with the network or with the server."?
[07:20] <sharms> Skaag: there is no deal, it does.
[07:20] <Jay> what would folks install these days: ubuntu, xubuntu, kubuntu ?
[07:20] <Skaag> sharms: it's installed and running but I try to ssh to the box and it just waits there forever
[07:20] <Nvening_> jay, depnds on what you want
[07:20] <Skaag> sharms: it's like it's slightly different than the older 'ssh' service
[07:21] <Jay> want just a good workstation with linux
[07:21] <sharms> Skaag: then it is a firewall issue if you are sure its running.  There is no issue with sshd.
[07:21] <Nvening_> jay, how powerful is the pc??
[07:21] <Pelo> Jay,   between k and u it's a mater of choice between kde and gnome,   x is easier on older machines since xcfe uses less resources
[07:21] <wirelessmonkey> turbolover: if you're getting distortion on the screen.... gah, I know there's a display tool, but i can't locate it atm. Gimme a few.
[07:21] <albert> Pelo, i'm quite screwed too.. i got 4 primary partitions for linux and i never knew about this limitation and my second harddrive gives me a blinking prompt as master... so repartitioning, ofcourse..
[07:21] <Skaag> if I run iptables -L -n it says perhaps my iptables or my kernel need to be upgraded
[07:21] <sharms> Skaag: you can only run it with sudo
[07:22] <Nvening_> jay, if your pc is fast i would use u over k
[07:22] <sharms> Skaag: and by default there isn't a firewall that would block ssh
[07:22] <Skaag> I'm sudo'ed with -s
[07:22] <Skaag> this is a brand new install
[07:22] <Skaag> I think i know what's going on though
[07:22] <Pelo> albert,  I donT' even understand most of what you wrote,  so all I can say is : Best of luck ;-0
[07:22] <Jay> intel dual core 2, 2.13 GHz
[07:22] <Nvening_> cany anyone help??
[07:22] <sharms> Skaag: how about sudo apt-get install ssh
[07:22] <Skaag> I'm booted from the cdrom so it's not the same kernel as the one installed

[07:28] <ethan> thorlin:  I got my broadcom working using ndiswrapper.
[07:28] <thorlin> sharms: Linksys wmp54gs
[07:28] <pbx> Pelo: Can it be done in the shell, e.g. with aptitude?
[07:28] <a8514> I cant use any comand because to use any comand, I have to log in locally
[07:28] <fsckr> k guys if i missed an answer to my question I am sorry.  I was pulled away from the computer
[07:28] <a8514> An X-Terminal is only a terminal.... so.... no commands
[07:29] <thorlin> ethan: I've gone through the ndiswrapper method at least 10 times.  I can't get the thing to work.  I can see the wireless network, but it won't connect.  It is a Linksys AP using WPA.
[07:29] <Pelo> pbx,  probably but I don'T know how,  try man apt   you can probably have a list out put
[07:29] <infidel> a8514, you can run is with cron
[07:29] <a8514> I know it is very simple.... very very simple, but I can't remember
[07:29] <MarkCh> My PC is connected to 2 networks, one is for the internet, the other to another PC which shares the net connection with my PC.
[07:29] <infidel> it
[07:29] <a8514> infidel, may be... but then... mmmm no no
[07:29] <MarkCh> The net connection is shared using firestarter, but every time I start up my PC, the eth number changes so that I have to set up firestarter to the eth number ubuntu chooses at boot. So at 1 time, the PC I share the net connection to becomes eth1 while at another it is eth2, is there a way to fix this problem so that I could give this network a permanent number, like eth1 perhaps? I never had the problem with eth0 though. Can anybody help? Thank you!
[07:29] <pbx> Pelo: Thanks again
[07:29] <fsckr> if I am connected to a share folder on my windows pc what can I do to be able to play my music from there?  I am connected via samba but it will not allow me to play mp3s from that computer
[07:30] <a8514> It is something about the /etc/gdm/gdm.conf or /etc/X11/Xsession.... I'm not sure
[07:30] <ethan> thorlin:  Hmmm... So it looks like the driver is working ok (you can see the network).  I'm using a linksys AP too (right at the moment, as a matter of fact).
[07:30] <dola> ubotu: i can not fund my hardware but i have i computer from last year so can it be anthor problem?
[07:31] <qaldune> dola ubotu is a bot, just in case you didn't know
[07:31] <jackn> nado have you deleted the .gnome folder?
[07:31] <Josesordo> how to create a windows vista & linux network :(
[07:31] <thorlin> ethan: me too, so I know the AP isn't a problem.  I've been through the forums for the last week, reinstalled Ubuntu at least 5 times.  I'm just going crazy.
[07:31] <sharms> dola: Linux runs on almost everything, the best thing in these situations is first: search www.ubuntuforums.org   for your computer, and second google for your computer + linux
[07:31] <Odi> i have some cybercafe software, and I am autostarting it with the session manager, but it starts and stays under the desktop... some idea of how I can change this
[07:31] <Pelo> MarkCh, try asking your question every 30 min or so , or checking the forum,  diffrent ppl are in at different times others may know
[07:31] <mado> I tried to remove gnome-panel-data, gnome-panel and ubuntu-desktop, then reinstall I still have one empty panel ???
[07:31] <mado> Yes I tried to remove .gnome
[07:31] <Falstius> MarkCh: you can specify the 'ethx' in an arguement to the module.  You'd have to add a line to one of the modutils configuration files.  Maybe someone here can fill in the details, or just lookup network card module arguements on the web.
[07:31] <sharms> dola: It is just a suggestion that if you want to run Linux, the best idea is buy hardware that is already confirmed working
[07:31] <mado> do I need to reboot ?
[07:31] <Pelo> mado,  do you want pannels or not  ? jus trying to figure out what to tell you next
[07:32] <dola> qaldunethx now i know that
[07:32] <Pelo> later foks
[07:33] <jackn> nado, IMHO, you shouldn't remove these packages and reinstall. Now that you have removed them, reinstall them. Did you or did you not remove .gnome?
[07:33] <mado> I d' like to restore my mother's gnome desktop with the default 2 panels...
[07:33] <ethan> thorlin:  Sorry to hear about the wifi suckage.  I just did a quick google and found http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=185174, which is about using broadcom without ndis.  However, can email you my notes on getting things working with ndiswrapper if you'd like.
[07:33] <se7en> guys, do we have step-by-step text for migrating from windows to linux?
[07:34] <mado> I removed the .gnome
[07:34] <Falstius> mado: if you still have one panel, right click on a blank area and select new panel.
[07:34] <mado> I now have an empty panel
[07:34] <jusama14> Hello, I can't get sound working on my computer. Can anyone help?
[07:35] <thorlin> ethan: i think I've gone through that posting but they are all starting to get jumbled together.  I'd love your notes thought
[07:35] <walkintome> hi all. whenever I open terminal, firefox, or most programs, they open up on the top right corner. Is there any way to get them to open in the center fo the screen?
[07:35] <Smygis> mado, rightklick on it and add whatever you want
[07:35] <jackn> nado, good. After you reinstall all the packages which you have removed, no , no need to reboot. Just restart gdm :  sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart. But first you must reinstall all the packages you have removed. Without them, of course, you don't have panels.
[07:35] <ethan> thorlin:  OK.  Send me mail at<EMAIL_ADDRESS>and I'll send you what I've got.

[07:36] <ubotu> LAMP is an acronym for Linux-Apache-MySQL-PHP. However, the term is often used for setups using alternative but different software, such as Perl or Python instead of PHP, and Postgres instead of MySQL. For help with setting up LAMP on Ubuntu, see  https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ApacheMySQLPHP - See also the Server CD installation process (different in Edgy+)
[07:36] <jusama14> Hello, I can't get sound working on my computer. Can anyone help?
[07:36] <jackn> nado, so: don't reboot. Reinstall all the packages. Restart gdm: sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart.
[07:36] <thorlin> ethan: just sent the email.  thanks.

[07:37] <l3mr> flintx: hmm better t
[07:37] <pipegeek> Howdy.  I'm wondering if anyone knows of a way to get smbclient to attempt to connect to port 139 by default (instead of 445).  When I attempt to connect to a certain server (which has port 445 firewalled) from gnome, I have to wait for the attempted connection to port 445 to time out, which takes forever.  I'm using feisty.
[07:37] <sanityx> flintx, no it wont, but xubuntu might
[07:37] <l3mr> flintx better try damnsmalllinux
[07:37] <mado> Ok pour le franais

[07:37] <jusama14> Hello, I can't get sound working on my computer. Can anyone help?
[07:37] <walkintome> flintx: id say most likely yes, but you will not be able to get compiz or any effects running.
[07:38] <oo_seven> any ideas if its possible to use my tv card, and where to start?
[07:38] <flintx> compiz ?
[07:38] <walkintome> flintx: im running ubuntu now with compiz and im using about 256mb of ram

[07:38] <walkintome> sanityx: yes thats a good possibility
[07:38] <jackn> nado, suis donc les deux etapes : reinstallation de tous les logiciels que tu as enleves (ne les enleve pas a l'avenir).
[07:38] <soundray> pipegeek: 'man smbclient' mentions a -p port option...
[07:38] <flintx> whats the difference?
[07:38] <matthew1429> oo_seven: I think something called mythTV is what you are looking for
[07:38] <mado> oui oui c'est rinstall
[07:38] <mado> excuse
[07:39] <pipegeek> soundray: right, but I'm trying to connect through gnome.  Command-line options aren't an option
[07:39] <jackn> nado, puis redemarrage de gnome: sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart
[07:39] <ivanhoe> how can i uncomprres a .rar file in parts_

[07:39] <fiber> hello, i'm running ubuntu amd64 (i JUST instsalled ubuntu for the first time, i'm a gentoo user), and i was wondering what the best method would be for installing 32 bit applications (more specifically a 32bit .deb package for skype)
[07:39] <atlas95> mado et jackn pourquoi ne causez vous pas en fr sur le chan fr ?
[07:39] <pipegeek> soundray: unless it's possible to specify the command gnome-vfs uses for smb:// URLs
[07:39] <ubuntu> Hello
[07:39] <jackn> nado tu as redemarre gnome comme precise plus haut ?
[07:40] <ubuntu> How do I make beryl look like on YouTube??
[07:40] <kane77> fiber, you can force architecture
[07:40] <sanityx> ubuntu try installing it first
[07:40] <soundray> pipegeek: it's probably not smbclient anyway - it uses 139 by default
[07:40] <kinections> trying to install ubuntu on a machine with raid and it seems to be freezing up before getting to the liveCD desktop. Is there anything that needs to be done (kernel args?) for it to boot correctly?
[07:40] <Possum> ubuntu, tweak beryl-settings and install kiba-dock :P
[07:40] <flintx> sanityx does xubuntu come with kde/gmone ?
[07:40] <peippo> Hi. I have a problem starting my Ubuntu Edgy GUI (X?) After the login screen I get this msg, and a black screen for a few seconds, then get thrown back to the login. "There was an error starting the GNOME Settings Daemon. Unable to determine the address of the message bus". Any ideas what to do? :)
[07:40] <walkintome> anyone know how to get applications to open in the center fo the screen instead of shoved in the top left corner?
[07:40] <fiber> kane77: cool, is that in an env variable or what?
[07:40] <Falstius> flintx: it comes with xfce (hence the x)
[07:41] <pipegeek> soundray: not on my machine it doesn't.  When I run it from the command line, it times out twice trying to connect to <IP_ADDRESS>:445 before it finally successfully connects to port 139
[07:41] <jusama14> Hello, I can't get sound working on my computer. Can anyone help?
[07:41] <jackn> atlas95 c'est ou le channel francais? Il est venu ici pour de l'aide, et il a dit qu'il avait mal en anglais.

[07:41] <fr0nk> does anyone know about the update policy of ubuntu?
