[00:00] <||ChAoS||> LjL: can you explain why thats a bad idea?
[00:00] <darkvertex> sfears: /var/log/syslog
[00:00] <Flannel> Formode: If you plan on using IRC a lot, you'll probably be better off getting a real IRC client, such as Xchat
[00:01] <Miyavix31> I've had problems with Hardy and getting the internet to work, do you think it will be able to work with intrepid? (DWA-552 D-link wireless N router)
[00:01] <puff> Flannel: I prefer emacs erc mode :-).
[00:01] <axtr> osiris: Take a look at conky, http://conky.sourcesforge.net
[00:01] <jenna> hi
[00:01] <osiris> thank-you axtr
[00:01] <Formode> Flannel, I have xchat as well. :) I just want to be able to leave #Ubuntu up without having an entire other application open. :-P
[00:01] <jenna> can someone tell me what is up with zattoo?
[00:01] <Computer> I am trying to get a pcmcia network card working. I am not sure that the PCMCIA is working properly because the network card LED does not light up. pcmciautils are installed. Base system is installed from the Ubuntu 8 CD.
[00:01] <seele> hmm.. seems like a waste to download a complete iso.  the package has to be listed on launchpad *somewhere*
[00:02] <seekingtruth> ubuntu 8.10 is out today, im so happy
[00:02] <Formode> seekintruth, 4 more days, actually.
[00:02] <Formode> seekingtruth, 4 more days, actually*
[00:02] <seekingtruth> Formode: hmm 3 days it says
[00:02] <axtr> osiris: http://conky.sourceforge.net/
[00:02] <Formode> seekingtruth, Ah. xD I checked it 2 hours ago. :-P
[00:02] <seekingtruth> Formode: hhe ;)
[00:02] <LjL> ||ChAoS||: because you shouldn't normally run programs from a random place in your home, unless you're doing something special. the prefix "./" makes it clear that you actually want to do it (and doesn't take very long to type, for sure), while just typing a name doesn't, and its effects is only predictable given you know the contents of your current directory, which is quite scary.
[00:03] <Formode> seekingtruth, But I am in PDT. :-P
[00:03] <seekingtruth> PDT?
[00:03] <popey> jenna: you're better off asking zattoo themselves
[00:03] <seekingtruth> !PDT
[00:03] <Formode> seekingtruth, GMT -8.
[00:03]  * djdarkman goes to make a coffe as hard as h3ll
[00:03] <seekingtruth> !GMT
[00:03] <djhash> Computer: unplug the card, then plugit back in then type "dmesg"
[00:03] <SaberZ> only thing I throw in my /home directory is my Music folder and wow
[00:03] <Miyavix3> Formode: Do you think my card will be supported naturally with Intrepid? (D-link wireless N adapter DWA-552)
[00:03] <seekingtruth> djdarkman: why do you drink drugs?
[00:03] <Formode> seekingtruth, Time. :-P
[00:03] <LjL> !fishing | seekingtruth
[00:03] <seekingtruth> !Time
[00:03] <bah> It is now Sunday October 26 2008 08:03:46 PM UTC-4 (EDT). (24 hour time is 20:03:46).<PHONE_NUMBER> seconds since 00:00:00 UTC, January 1, 1970. (Not counting leap seconds.)
[00:03] <Info73> Now is 17:03:19.
[00:03] <SaberZ> what IRC client do you recommend? Currently using xchat Gnome
[00:03] <jenna> popey, that is right. you also got that problem?
[00:03] <Flannel> seekingtruth, Formode: it comes out on the 30th.  If you have questions about Intrepid (support, etc) those belong in #ubuntu+1, if you just want to chat about it, #ubuntu-release-party is the place to be.  Thanks.
[00:03] <seekingtruth> ljl pl
[00:04] <seekingtruth> ok
[00:04] <mrz0g> irssi is graet for ssh and screening it for long logins and stuff
[00:04] <seekingtruth> Flannel: rofl :)
[00:04] <popey> jenna: no, but I have heard others complain today
[00:04] <Formode> Miyavix3, I don't know. :) You can try it by downloading the beta, or by checking the hardware compatability page on the help wiki. :)
[00:04] <jenna> popey, ok. thank you for the information
[00:05] <sfears> darkvertex: that's not the whole thing.  i'm looking for the entier boot up
[00:06] <LifesaGarden> How does someone handle fonts in Hardy?      I want to delete the   ttf-Larabie-Uncommon     * Participants ttfs
[00:08] <jenna> popey, just did so. :) i asked zattoo directly.
[00:10] <lucax> do i need emerald for using window reflections?
[00:10] <Bachiir> I'm having an issue with my flash player and it's imperative that I find a solution quickly, so any help is greatly appreciated. Flash works fine, but I cannot get keyboard input to work. I can select the fields I want to enter information into, but I can't use my keyboard to enter it.
[00:10] <kerin> hi - when I try to play h.264-encoded video, my player crashes.
[00:10] <kerin> lucax: yes.
[00:11] <HaSH> hello all. im trying to compile mupen64plus so it has nogui support and it needs libsdl-dev to compile..but when i goto install it i get this: http://pastebin.com/m536e2d87
[00:11] <lucax> kerin, wont work with metacity at all?
[00:11] <graeme> I was messing around in my setting and I reset my graphics card now when I boot up It wont load the GUI
[00:11] <kerin> lucax: metacity and emerald are completely different window managers.  if you want to use the features of one, you have to be using it.
[00:11] <kerin> graeme: reset your graphics card?
[00:11] <graeme> changed the driver for it
[00:12] <graeme> so How do I pick the driver in the terminal
[00:12] <sfears> while booting my system halts to wait to see if there is a resume image.  is that because hibernation is enabled?
[00:12] <kerin> graeme: how did you change the driver in the first place?
[00:12] <ANTOINE> hey guys, how can I apt-get a 32bit package on a 64 bit system (to have it installed into /usr/lib32)?
[00:13] <graeme> i was trying to find the one for my card and I picked the wrong one
[00:14] <kerin> graeme:  in the Screens and graphics panel?  okay, i know how to help you.  :)
[00:14] <graeme> okay
[00:14] <djhash> graeme: where u using the GUI interface to pick the driver?
[00:14] <graeme> no
[00:15] <graeme> oh yes I was
[00:15] <Computer> djhash, unplugging and replugging the pcmcia network card does not create any new output from dmesg
[00:15] <Bachiir> Anyone have any ideas on my flash issue?
[00:15] <kerin> run "ls /etc/X11 | grep xorg.conf" for me and tell me what results you get, okay?  that will help me determine whether there's a backup of your old (working) configuration.
[00:15] <kerin> graeme: last post was to you, sorry.
[00:15] <djhash> Computer: and "sudo lshw" does not show the card?
[00:15] <KenBW22> Bachiir: which issue?
[00:16] <Fezzler> I have two HD in my computer.  How do I find their total capacity and free space in Ubuntu 8.04?
[00:16] <graeme> well I am on my desktop right now
[00:16] <Bachiir> I'm having an issue with my flash player and it's imperative that I find a solution quickly, so any help is greatly appreciated. Flash works fine, but I cannot get keyboard input to work. I can select the fields I want to enter information into, but I can't use my keyboard to enter it.
[00:16] <julian> anyone know how to get flash to work on vuze using 64 bit hardy
[00:16] <KenBW22> Fezzler: Places > Computer. Right-click the drives
[00:16] <kerin> graeme: it might be an idea to have access to your machine while looking for support on it.
[00:16] <graeme> and I had just installed it before I changed the setting so there isn't any back up
[00:16] <kerin> ah
[00:16] <kerin> in that case
[00:16] <kerin> run this command
[00:17] <KenBW22> Bachiir: what browser?
[00:17] <graeme> okay I'll be back in a few minutes with the results
[00:17] <kerin> "sudo mv /etc/X11/xorg.conf /etc/X11/xorg.conf.bak"
[00:17] <kerin> and then try booting
[00:17] <anm> exit
[00:17] <Fezzler> KenBW22: Then Properties?
[00:17] <anm> :-)
[00:17] <Bachiir> epiphany
[00:17] <KenBW22> Fezzler: yea
[00:17] <kerin> it'll give you a low-res GUI and you can reconfigure with the graphical tools
[00:17] <KenBW22> Bachiir: try Firefox
[00:18] <Bachiir> Doesn't work there, either.
[00:18] <ANTOINE> anyone? installing 32 bit package on 64 bit system? :)
[00:18] <KenBW22> Bachiir: i have problems with Opera and Flash
[00:18] <Fezzler> KenBW22: Is the one labeled Filesystem my first drive?
[00:18] <KenBW22> Fezzler: that's your ubuntu partition, yes
[00:18] <kerin> Fezzler: generally, Filesystem includes all your drives.
[00:19] <Fezzler> KenBW22: I see one labeled File system and one labled 96.6 9 media
[00:19] <KenBW22> Bachiir: what v of flash?
[00:19] <Computer> djhash, pcmcia shows under firmware capabilities but that's it
[00:19] <KenBW22> Fezzler: ilesystem is your ubuntu partition, the other is the other HD
[00:19] <Fezzler> kerin: So again, how can I see drive ATA0 and ATA1 and their free space
[00:19] <Fezzler> I have two hard rives
[00:20] <kerin> Fezzler: df -m
[00:20] <KenBW22> Fezzler: as stated above
[00:20] <Bachiir> The site that I need to run the applet on won't let me use firefox, it's really silly. I can access it on epiphany, though. I have the same problem with either browser anyway. Flash is apparently <IP_ADDRESS>
[00:20] <KenBW22> Bachiir: it cant be :/
[00:20] <masque7> is there DOSBox for linux?
[00:20] <ubuntu4me> Greetings.  Is ubuntu (livecd) able to boot the underlying OS, via some VM software?  The wife still need WinXX for iTunes..
[00:21] <kerin> masque7: yes.
[00:21] <Bachiir> Maybe... LNX <IP_ADDRESS>, then?
[00:21] <KenBW22> Bachiir: makes more sense. whats the site?
[00:21] <kerin> ubuntu4me: you'd be better off running Frostwire in linux
[00:21] <Bachiir> www.mathxl.com
[00:21] <djhash> Computer: it might be possible you have a problem with the card itself.. but dont take my word for it.. i'm just a noobux..
[00:21] <ubuntu4me> kerin:  thanks
[00:21] <ubuntu4me> kerin:  let me google
[00:21] <kerin> ubuntu4me: agh!  wait.
[00:21] <ubuntu4me> ?
[00:22] <sdx> i have a directory index with images how can i get them all with wget?
[00:22] <kerin> ubuntu4me: my bad, i'm an idiot.  thought you said winMX, which is a filesharing client.
[00:22] <KenBW22> Bachiir: no way for me to try it?
[00:22] <Fezzler> still confused - one of my drives in a 200gig but I don't see one being reported with nearly that capacity with DF -m
[00:22] <kerin> ubuntu4me: does she need itunes for the itunes store or ipod sync?
[00:22] <Bachiir> I don't think so.
[00:22] <lucax> direct rendering for two users logged in on intel gma not supported yet?
[00:22] <ubuntu4me> kerin:  itunes store..
[00:22] <n8tuser1> sdx did you man wget, perhaps it has some tips on how to retrieve everything?
[00:23] <ubuntu4me> kerin:  Starbucks give out free music weekly w/ her coffee..  :(
[00:23] <KenBW22> Bachiir: i cant help sorry
[00:23] <KenBW22> Bachiir: this is why i hate flash
[00:23] <kerin> ubuntu4me: ah.  well, you could run windows through a VM inside ubuntu but you can't just boot the windows on your hard drive inside linux.
[00:23] <Bachiir> Yeah, I hate flash, too. One of my courses requires that you do online homework via their flash applet. It works fine on my debian box, but it's currently out of commission, so I'm doing it on this (my ubuntu laptop). I didn't realize that it had this issue until just now.
[00:23] <hatemtmtm> hi i'm new use at ubuntu , can i hack by ubuntu?!!
[00:23] <kerin> ubuntu4me: i've heard itunes works in Wine, but as far as I can tell that's a filthy lie.
[00:24] <ubuntu4me> kerin:  Sure you can... w/ VMWare, but it's not on the ubuntu livecd.
[00:24] <KenBW22> Bachiir: you could try upgrading to flash 10 from adobe's site
[00:24] <Fezzler> http://paste.ubuntu.com/63069/
[00:24] <ubuntu4me> kerin:  ok..  sounds like I'm SOL w/ the livecd then?
[00:24] <kerin> ubuntu4me: if you tried that with VMware, i'm pretty sure there would be configuration issues from booting into virtualized/different hardware.  for instance?  activation.
[00:25] <kerin> ubuntu4me:  kind of.  how adventurous are you feeling?
[00:25] <jose> anyone speaks spanish
[00:25] <Fezzler> KenBW22: Check out my Pastebin
[00:25] <KenBW22> Fezzler: so what do you want to know
[00:25] <Flannel> !es | jose
[00:25] <ubuntu4me> kerin:  I don't want to hack VMWare, via a nfs share or anything like that, if that's what you're asking.  Too much *nix at work.  I just want it to work.
[00:25] <jlgshk> es aqui ubuntu en español
[00:25] <jlgshk> ?????
[00:25] <kerin> ubuntu4me: because if you had a flash drive, you could make an ubuntu live-USB stick with data persistence.  which'd let you install software, etc
[00:25] <jose> who??
[00:26] <jlgshk>  ubuntu español
[00:26] <jlgshk> ¿??
[00:26] <jose> where
[00:26] <jose> a chat server like this
[00:26] <KenBW22> Bachiir: http://www.adobe.com/shockwave/download/download.cgi?P1_Prod_Version=ShockwaveFlash&promoid=BUIGP
[00:26] <jlgshk> #ubuntu-es
[00:26] <Fezzler> I thought I had my first drive which was a 10-20gig as the "system HD" and the second one, the 200gig set up as /home
[00:26] <Flannel> jlgshk: /join #ubuntu-es
[00:26] <Chris_Britton> is it ok to ask openoffice.org questions in here or do I use a different channel
[00:26] <Bachiir> Okay, I'm going to try updating..
[00:26] <jose> how
[00:26] <jose> I'm new in Ubuntu
[00:26] <Fezzler> I wanted to see how much space is left on both drives
[00:26] <hatemtmtm> hi i'm new user at ubuntu can i hack by ubuntu??
[00:26] <jose> I want to use compiz
[00:27] <Flannel> Fezzler: df -h
[00:27] <l337ingDisorder> hey folks, I've downloaded a custom usplash theme but I can't seem to find any decent documentation explaining how to use the them.. can anyone tell me how to install/use it?
[00:27] <Chris_Britton> hatemtmtm, that would violate the terms of the user license agreement
[00:27] <ubuntu4me> kerin:  ok, thanks for the sugguestions.  Would be a cool project if I had time..
[00:27] <kerin> ubuntu4me: i'm still not convinced that you can actually, you know, VMware the windows partition without the guest OS flipping out and going "whoa, all my hardware is different."  same reason you can't just pop a hard drive with XP into a different machine and expect it to boot.
[00:27] <Flannel> hatemtmtm: Yep.  Ubuntu is very condusive to programming in a number of languages.
[00:27] <hatemtmtm> hi i'm new user at ubuntu can i hack by ubuntu??
[00:27] <Chris_Britton> hatemtmtm, that would violate the terms of the user license agreement
[00:27] <hatemtmtm> tnks
[00:27] <kerin> ubuntu4me:  it shouldn't be terribly time consuming.  if you google for ubuntu liveusb utility you should find a slick GUI tool to do all the heavy lifting for you.
[00:27] <Chris_Britton> !openoffice
[00:28] <Fezzler> Flannel: Cool.  df -h did it.  Why is my 200gig only showing as 93gig?
[00:28] <kerin> Fezzler: i told you df -h ages ago, man.
[00:28] <hatemtmtm> chris_britton : can u tell me some programs for hacking, or book
[00:28] <evan_> help i cant use my space bar, im getting crazy copie pasting!
[00:29] <kerin> Fezzler: and, your partition could be formatted improperly
[00:29] <Fezzler> http://paste.ubuntu.com/63070/
[00:29] <Chris_Britton> hatemtmtm, why do you need that type of information ?
[00:29] <Flannel> hatemtmtm: Python is pretty easy to learn: http://diveintopython.org/
[00:29] <ubuntu4me> Fezzler:  fdisk -l
[00:29] <huyhoa> I have problem with installing wireless card driver. My card is AR242x 802.11abg Wireless PCI Express Adapter. When I tried installing madwifi by "make" and "make install", I received an error "./kernelversion.c:13:30: error: linux/utsrelease.h: No such file or directory
[00:29] <huyhoa> Makefile.inc:91: *** KERNELCONF: /lib/modules/2.6.24-21-server/build/.config does not exist..  Stop." in "make" command. I also tried installing by Sysnaptic, but it still didnt work. I'm new to Linux, could anyone help me?
[00:30] <evan_> I switched my sceen, the must have been altered by nvidia-xconfig
[00:30] <Chris_Britton> hatemtmtm, I need to know why you need such information and verification that it is for a legitimate purpose
[00:30] <Fezzler> kerin: All due respect, dude, you said "df -m" not "df -h"
[00:30] <Fezzler> ubuntu4me: fdisk -l dangerous?
[00:30] <Flannel> Fezzler: nope, but you'll need to sudo it.
[00:31] <greghere> suggestions on a "sidebar" app like in Vista that I can customise in Ubuntu
[00:31] <ubuntu4me> Fezzler:  nope.  Not w/ the -l
[00:31] <hatemtmtm> because my friends  can hack with windows to other computers and i want to say i can hack by linux
[00:31] <kerin> Fezzler: still gives the same info, just in megabytes.
[00:31] <hatemtmtm> and i want to be different
[00:31] <kerin> Fezzler: df is neat like that.  has a man page and everything.
[00:31] <TigranG> Is there any way to change the resolution that the boot screen uses? the orange bar, its really low resolution right now and it wasnt like this before
[00:32] <kerin> TigranG: yeah, there is.  gets a little dicey based on your hardware, though.
[00:32] <DropKickPhoenix> A few hours ago I asked if there was a way to run Vista inside linux. I'm dual booting and I'm too lazy to shut down to use programs on the other partition that I don't have on this one. Is there a way to run my vista partition from Ubuntu?
[00:32] <Chris_Britton> hatemtmtm, why are your friends hacking ?
[00:32] <hatemtmtm> chris_britton
[00:32] <Fezzler> Flannel: http://paste.ubuntu.com/63072/
[00:33] <Tardis> Hi! I just changed computer, and just plugged in my old hard drive because i want to copy my novell evolution files to my new ubuntu install, but when i try to copy the evolution folder i get the message: "The folder "pop" cannot be handled because you do not have permissions to read it" anyone know how i can solve this problem ?
[00:33] <ubuntu4me> DropKickPhoenix:  I just asked that same question.  :)
[00:33] <kerin> TigranG: google "bootsplash resolution ubuntu", there's an excellent post about it - very comprehensive.
[00:33] <TigranG> kerin: http://swik.net/Ubuntu/Only+Ubuntu/Fix+boot+GUI+resolution+in+Ubuntu/b5iro is that okay? or is there a change of completlely screwing up  my system
[00:33] <huyhoa> Makefile.inc:91: *** KERNELCONF: /lib/modules/2.6.24-21-server/build/.config does not exist..  Stop." in "make" command. I also tried installing by Sysnaptic, but it still didnt work. I'm new to Linux, can anyone help me?
[00:33] <djhash> !offtopic | hatemtmtm
[00:33] <hatemtmtm> just to tell other i hack on on other computer, to proud him self
[00:33] <DropKickPhoenix> Ubuntu4me: Good to know it's popular. did you get an answer?
[00:33] <kerin> Tardis: you mean your sonic screwdriver didn't work?  Try sudo chown [username] on the files.
[00:34] <esav> is this the place to ask questions?
[00:34] <kerin> esav: yes.
[00:34]  * DropKickPhoenix grins
[00:34] <Chris_Britton> hatemtmtm, why would you want to hack in the first place and what is there to be proud of it ?
[00:34] <Fezzler> Flannel: I have no idea what I have going on.  I thought I had a 6gig that was my boot HD, and a 200gig that was mounted as /home
[00:34] <kerin> TigranG: you can screw up your system, but not irrevocably.
[00:34] <Fezzler> FLanne
[00:34] <ubuntu4me> DropKickPhoenix:  I think we're SOL.  One suggestion is to try out VMWare..  I'm not sure it will work..
[00:34] <Chris_Britton> hatemtmtm, you know you could be sent to jail for doing that type of thing
[00:34] <sleven> apt =?
[00:34] <TigranG> kerin: ok
[00:34] <sleven> application?
[00:35] <TigranG> kerin: im trying it
[00:35] <Flannel> Fezzler: what does df -h show?
[00:35] <Fezzler> Flannel: My idea was the data on the 200gig would always be safe from a problem with the HD1
[00:35] <DropKickPhoenix> I installed virtualbox but it runs from a file that expands in size not a partition, the previous answer I got was VMware as well.
[00:35] <Flannel> Fezzler: right, thats the benefit of a separate home.
[00:35] <jgoguen> Chris_Britton: technically no, "hacking" is a good thing...it's "cracking" that you get in trouble for
[00:35] <huyhoa> I have problem with installing wireless card driver. My card is AR242x 802.11abg Wireless PCI Express Adapter. When I tried installing madwifi by "make" and "make install", I received an error "./kernelversion.c:13:30: error: linux/utsrelease.h: No such file or directory

[00:35] <ubuntu4me> Drop:  Virtualbox isn't able to read directly from the partition?  Have you googled?
[00:36] <Bachiir> Okay, so I updated to flash player 10 and keyboard input still does not work.
[00:36] <jgoguen> Chris_Britton: but is sounds like hatemtmtm wants to do things along the "cracking" lines :(
[00:36] <hatemtmtm> yes i know , but i want to be professional , and i want to do every thing by computer, not just hacking computer but hacking any  system
[00:36] <Chris_Britton> jgoguen, most definitely, and usually with the least amount of effort and/or understanding
[00:36] <Fezzler> Flannel: http://paste.ubuntu.com/63070/
[00:36] <DropKickPhoenix> ubuntu4me: I piddled with it shortly and couldn't get the system to recognize another partition, only singular files.
[00:37] <jgoguen> hatemtmtm: what specifically do you mean by "hacking"
[00:37] <ubuntu4me> hatemtmtm:  Try this:  "pkill init"  I heard that's LeeT.
[00:37] <hatemtmtm> i'm at last year at faculty of engineering
[00:38] <Flannel> hatemtmtm: this really isn't on topic, you were already given some hacking resources, but do you mind taking further discussion to #ubuntu-offtopic? thanks
[00:38] <kerin> hatemtmtm: i do all my hacking in DOS, personally.  more leet cracks, more mainframes to hack.
[00:38] <b33r> hatemtmtm, gtfo asking people to teach you how to "hack" wont do you any good =D
[00:38] <Flannel> !gtfo | b33r
[00:38] <Fezzler> Flannel: Did df -h tell you anything?
[00:38] <esav> one of my partititons is unmountable from debian, I was able to mount it from a livecd and all the filenames were garbled, if I look at it from testdisk though I can see all the filenames properly
[00:38] <b33r> Flannel, bleh
[00:39] <Formode> b33r, This channel is for support, not rudeness. :(
[00:39] <b33r> Formode, <b33r> Flannel, bleh
[00:39] <hatemtmtm> i'm sorry for every one , i want just to know , to be professional , like i see at movies
[00:39] <Thedjatclubrock> Will 8.10 use OO.O 3.0?
[00:39] <Flannel> Thedjatclubrock: #ubuntu+1 can answer that question
[00:39] <djhash> hatemtmtm: what you see in movies is fiction..
[00:39] <Fezzler> I notice in Computer - FIle Browser 96.6 GB shows up as a Place.  I wonder if my 200gig is partitioned in half.  One half as /home and other as 96.5 gb
[00:40] <jgoguen> hatemtmtm: what you see in the movies is usually not "professional" or even accurate
[00:40] <Flannel> b33r: Please see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/IrcGuidelines
[00:40] <ubuntu4me> Fezzler:  What does "fdisk -l" show you?
[00:40] <Flannel> hatemtmtm: Again, please take this topic elsewhere.
[00:40] <hatemtmtm> yes i know , but u can do some
[00:40] <jgoguen> hatemtmtm: let's take this to #ubuntu-offtopic for more discussion
[00:40] <||ChAoS||> b33r: Hacking from a clasic mac with a ms-dos command prompt is in the movies so people dont get any ideas.
[00:40] <b33r> Flannel, please drop the subject or you don't have anything better to do? ;)
[00:40] <Tardis> kerin, i think i have to chang batteries in that :P thanks ... i will try it
[00:40] <Fezzler> ubuntu4me: http://paste.ubuntu.com/63072/
[00:40] <Formode> hatemtmtm, Hollywood lies are not all true. :)
[00:41] <hatemtmtm> ok , i'm sorry
[00:41] <esav> is anyone savvy to the problem I am having?
[00:41] <kerin> Tardis: good luck, doctor.  ;]
[00:41] <mrrcp> how can i access my files through the wireless network with windows pc?
[00:41] <Fezzler> ubuntu4me: That tell you anything?
[00:41] <meeero> i've got an issue here i can't resolve. there seems to be a connection problem of some weird kind here. i've got a ftp-server up and running, which worked fine until i restarted that system recently, since then i'm getting error-messages from ftp-clients, saying `ftp: bind: Address already in use` when connecting using active mode. but i am positive that nothing is blocking that port 21, even when changing to another port i'm getting
[00:41] <meeero>  that error. any ideas what to do? i really ran out of ideas
[00:42] <ubuntu4me> Fezzler:  ok, what does that tell you?
[00:42] <huyhoa> Does anyone have any suggestion for my above problem?
[00:42] <sleven> I have a question. Can you make money programming Linux-software? Is there any chance people would pay for a program(free as in free speech, not beer)?
[00:42] <DropKickPhoenix> ubuntu4me: It seems Virtualbox is intended for you to create a file.vdi and install vista onto it. it doesn't leave an option to select a full partition to boot from.
[00:42] <b33r> Flannel, some people are just lame go ahead ban me please haha
[00:42] <djhash> !samba|mrrcp
[00:42] <ubuntu4me> Drop:  ok, so we're still at square one?
[00:42] <Formode> sleven, Yes. :) ID Software does it. Also, alot of people will donate to open source developers. :)
[00:42] <Ca{P}RiCoRN> b33r:
[00:42] <Flannel> Fezzler: Why are you only using a small portion of both of your harddrives?
[00:43] <Fezzler> ubuntu4me: Okay, it tells me I have two HDs:  one sda and sdb
[00:43] <Ca{P}RiCoRN> b33r: i upgrade to 8.04 and now my wireless card is not working :(
[00:43] <Vantrax> sleven: you can, but you have to find better models for sale than windoes
[00:43] <DropKickPhoenix> ubuntu4me: have you checked VMware?
[00:43] <flemita> #ubuntu-es
[00:43] <b33r> Ca{P}RiCoRN, sorry to hear that ;s
[00:43] <Ca{P}RiCoRN> b33r: u remeber : i was having flash player problem in the evening
[00:43] <b33r> yeah
[00:43] <leitao> My Ubuntu 8.04 is crashing everytime there is flash application with some kind of sound. Any known bug about it?
[00:43] <Ca{P}RiCoRN> now wat
[00:43] <Fezzler> Flannel: I have no idea - someone here help me set it up
[00:43] <Formode> sleven, If you want an example, games like ETQW are highly successful. http://community.enemyterritory.com/
[00:44] <mrrcp> djhash,  is there a gui to config it?
[00:44] <Ca{P}RiCoRN> i have to do some work on linux and i m stuck
[00:44] <Flannel> Fezzler: Alright, is this a fresh install? or what?  You're not trying to do anything else with these harddrives are you?  You just want your home on a separate drive?
[00:44] <LetterRip> hi all my sound quit working recently
[00:44] <LetterRip> any suggestions for troubleshooting/fixing the issue
[00:44] <flemita> you got 64bit architecture?
[00:44] <Formode> Letterrip, this boot?
[00:44] <LetterRip> may have happened up to a week or two ago
[00:44] <LetterRip> usually have the sound off
[00:44] <Formode> Letterrip, Try this: sudo /sbin/alsa force-reload
[00:45] <xaron> Is there a way to disable caching of files (images, text, videos, whatever) completely in gnome and nautilus?
[00:45] <Ca{P}RiCoRN> suggest me some thing
[00:45] <Fezzler> Flannel: I had lots of trouble upgrading Gutsy to Hardy so I did a clean install of Hardy and remounted the old 200gig as /home again
[00:45] <Flannel> Fezzler: so this is more or less fresh?  Do you have a liveCD you can use?
[00:45] <ubuntu4me> drop:  http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=823876
[00:45] <Formode> Letterrip, It reloads Alsa, it can help with your sound cuts out after sleep or such.
[00:45] <Fezzler> Flannel: Yes and yes
[00:45] <Flannel> Fezzler: Freshness doesn't actually matter, we should be able to fix this without any dataloss, etc.
[00:45] <esav> one of my partititons is unmountable from debian, I was able to mount it from a livecd and all the filenames were garbled, if I look at it from testdisk though I can see all the filenames properly
[00:45] <esav> so does anyone know how to use testdisk to resolve that?
[00:45] <LetterRip> Formode - ah well it wasn't working after a reboot so
[00:46] <LetterRip> that isn't the issue
[00:46] <Flannel> Fezzler: Alright, boot the liveCD, run gparted, and expand the first partitions on each drive (sda1 and sdb1) to be the entire drives, right now you've got more partitions on there, that are taking up space.
[00:46] <Formode> Letterrip, Hmm, that's really strange.
[00:46] <Fezzler> Flannel: "should"  :)  how about losing all my mapping
[00:46] <ubuntu4me> Drop:  but that won't help me, since I'm trying to do it from the Ubuntu LiveCD.
[00:46] <hatemtmtm> i want to install google earth at linux
[00:46] <LetterRip> Formode i get "lsof: WARNING: can't stat() fuse.gvfs-fuse-daemon file system /home/tom/.gvfs
[00:46] <LetterRip>       Output information may be incomplete.
[00:46] <LetterRip> "
[00:46] <darmou> hi all, I'm trying to compile php4 with a particular version of postgresql does anyone know how I would do that?
[00:46] <Fezzler> Flannel: So I need to drop off this to do that, right?
[00:46] <Formode> Letterrip, Yes I get that too.
[00:47] <azucar> Hello everyone :-)
[00:47] <Fezzler> Flannel: Is gparted easy to use?  A menu selection off Live CD or command line?
[00:47] <DropKickPhoenix> ubuntu4me: it certainly does help me though. I'll keep looking in to virtualbox though... one question: Why would you want boot a native system through a cd run OS?
[00:47] <Formode> Letterrip, test out your sound for me. Please. Restart Audacious/whatever you use and try to play something.
[00:48] <zachera> I am seriously pissed to hell right now.
[00:48] <zachera> I tried to do apt-get autoremove for some software, and it gets errors when it tries to remove it.
[00:48] <mneptok> zachera: sorry to hear. but please watch the language.
[00:48] <Bachiir> Okay, so I've gotten that page to load in firefox, but keyboard input still doesn't work.
[00:48] <Formode> Letterrip, any luck?
[00:48] <zachera> How do I remove the software when it has errors upon attempting to remove it?
[00:48] <Randall> (EE) Failed to initialize GLX extension (NVIDIA X driver not found)
[00:48] <Randall> that is the only error i get when i run cat /var/log/Xorg.0.log how do i fix it?
[00:49] <LetterRip> Formode nope
[00:49] <Formode> Letterrip. Sorry, then. :-/ It's out of my ability.
[00:49] <LetterRip> k thanks anyway
[00:49] <LetterRip> will try going to an older kernel
[00:49] <Formode> Letterrip, Try someone who knows everything, like Flannel. :)
[00:49] <symptom> do you have to partition the hard drive to install a new machine with virtualbox
[00:49] <Fezzler> Flannel: Still here?
[00:49] <wsa> Randall: umm, unstall the NVIDIA X druver?
[00:50] <Flannel> Fezzler: Gparted is really easy to use, yes.  And menu should be there, under admin, "Gnome partition editor"
[00:50] <okidogi> Hi,all. I'm new to fetchmail, but where it stores my mail on my local machine?
[00:50] <LetterRip> bbl
[00:50] <darmou> I know you can use 	 ./configure --with-apxs2=/usr/bin/apxs2 --with-pgsql=something
[00:50] <Flannel> Fezzler: and yes, you need to boot from the CD, since you can only modify unmounted partitions
[00:50] <darmou> but I'm not sure what something should be replace
[00:50] <darmou>  with
[00:50] <Randall> WSA i think i did
[00:50] <Flannel> okidogi: Whereever you tell it to.
[00:50] <wsa> (*install the NVIDIA X driver)
[00:51] <lu31415> hi everyone
[00:51] <Randall> wsa: I think i did how would i check though? and if it isn't installed how do i do it
[00:51] <wsa> Randall: can you pastebin both your xorg.conf and the output of lsmod for me?
[00:51] <Fezzler> Flannel: So boot with Live CD, gparted is a menu item, select used entire drive for partition, save/close, reboot?  No data loss, no paths loss?
[00:51] <Bachiir> Does anyone have any idea how to get keyboard input working in flash? Keyboard input does not work in my flash player. I just upgraded to flash 10 in an attempt to fix this bug, but had no luck.
[00:51] <Thedjatclubrock> If prefs->screen res doesn't let me choose settings, where do I go?
[00:52] <okidogi> Flannel: I use this command fetchmail -d0 -vk pop.gmail.com And I just configure the ~/.fetchmailrc withourt telling where to store.
[00:52] <lu31415> can someone help with getting an ati hd2400 pro to work in hardy heron?
[00:52] <Flannel> Fezzler: No data loss, no path loss (since they're still sda1 and sdb1).  You'll end up needing to first delete the rest of your partitions, and then expand the first partitions.  But more or less, those steps were correct, yes.
[00:52] <Flannel> okidogi: It's in the default storage location then.  Either in your mail spool, or somewhere in your homedir (perhaps ~/Maildir)
[00:52] <hatemtmtm> hellllo
[00:52] <billybigrigger> anyone here good with html/css? how do i change the icon displayed on the pages tab??? or even know what this is called?
[00:53] <wsa> .last wsa
[00:53] <wsa> haha oops sorry
[00:53] <Flannel> billybigrigger: That's the favicon, and you just need to make/set one.
[00:53] <Formode> billybigrigger, That is a favicon :)
[00:53] <obi-wan_> buenas
[00:53] <Fezzler> Flannel: Last question - The 6gig is getting loud.  Is it possible to move my Hardy install to the 200gig and not loose
[00:53] <billybigrigger> thanks Flannel and Formode
[00:54] <obi-wan_> necesito saber si es posible desde un shell installar una distro y como lo hago desde un cd
[00:54] <Flannel> Fezzler: 6Gig is rather small, yeah. 20G would be better.  However, yeah, there is. you'll use more or less the same instructions for moving to a separate home, except you'll be moving your /
[00:54] <Flannel> !separatehome | Fezzler
[00:54] <Formode> billybigrigger: http://www.w3.org/2005/10/howto-favicon
[00:55] <Flannel> Fezzler: it's likely you'll have to update grub too, which is the first link here.
[00:55] <Flannel> !grub | Fezzler
[00:55] <Fezzler> Sound hard guys
[00:55] <Nuro> I can't get electric sheep to run in fullscreen.
[00:55] <Nuro> I did some googling and found out it is possible to get it to run in fullscreen if you run it in mplayer. But, my problem is that when I try that it doesnt work for some reason.
[00:56] <Nuro> it just says terminated
[00:56] <Flannel> Fezzler: Not terribly, but if you do have a relatively clean install, backing your personal settings up and then doing an install would be simpler/faster
[00:56] <Randall> wsa: xorg file: http://pastebin.com/m849ecf1 and lsmod output: http://pastebin.com/m1b9e6706
[00:56] <Fezzler> Flannel: Maybe I'll have someone walk me through it.
[00:56] <Fezzler> Flannel: Someother night
[00:56] <Fezzler> Thanks!
[00:56] <Bachiir> Okay, new development: I can ONLY get keyboard input from the number pad. The rest of the keyboard does nothing, but the number pad seems to work fine. Does anyone have any idea what might be going on here?
[00:57] <Daxx> what the terminal cmd to update wine?
[00:57] <Flannel> !away > cooldude13233|aw
[00:57] <DropKickPhoenix> Bachiir: Sounds like a mapping issue
[00:57] <Randall> wsa: xorg file: http://pastebin.com/m849ecf1 and lsmod output: http://pastebin.com/m1b9e6706
[00:57] <lu31415> i really need some help with my ati hd2400, i've tried different things, but nothing has helped - is this the right place to ask, or is there another channel more specific to this?
[00:57] <DamienMiranda> Hello my box hangs during start up at NFS common utilities
[00:58] <mrrcp> where is the samba user list stored
[00:58] <Daxx> does anyone know the terminal cmd to update wine?
[00:58] <DropKickPhoenix> sudo apt-get update wine?
[00:58] <hatemtmtm> i have bin file for google earth how can i install it
[00:58] <Flannel> Daxx: sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install wine
[00:59] <ubuntu4me> Drop:  What aps are you trying to run w/ Wine?
[00:59] <Flannel> hatemtmtm: don't.  Get the deb from medibuntu instead of using the bin
[00:59] <DropKickPhoenix> ubuntu4me: Replying to someone else. I'm still trying to configure VMware :)
[00:59] <CitizenSNIPS> lets all quit!
[00:59] <mrrcp> ?
[00:59] <Randall> wsa: xorg file: http://pastebin.com/m849ecf1 and lsmod output: http://pastebin.com/m1b9e6706
[00:59] <hatemtmtm> ubuntu4me, how
[01:00] <wsa> Randall: thanks, I saw it
[01:00] <Randall> k
[01:00] <Formode> Citizensnips, No thanks. :)
[01:00] <wsa> Randall: so you are trying to use the open-source nvidia driver, then?
[01:00] <Randall> WSA: I have a Nvidia geforce4: MX 420 and want to do 3d animation
[01:01] <hatemtmtm> flannel , how
[01:01] <Randall> WSA: but in the hardware driver options and enabling it always sends my comp into low-graphics mode after restarting
[01:01] <DamienMiranda> My nfs common utilities fails to start up
[01:01] <hatemtmtm> flannel , how
[01:01] <Flannel> hatemtmtm: http://packages.medibuntu.org/hardy/index.html  download the googleearth deb (4.3 and 4.3-data) and then install them
[01:01] <mini-man> Hi, just upgraded to intrepid and my sound is broken, but when upgrading alsa in the upgrade process i chose to keep my conf, what should I do? I realize there's a special channel for intrepid but I can't remember what it is so if someone would be so kind.. :)
[01:01] <wsa> Randall: follow this howto: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto/Nvidia
[01:02] <Flannel> mini-man: #ubuntu+1 for Intrepid support
[01:02] <mini-man> Flannel, thanks
[01:02] <Randall> WSA: I have tried that
[01:02] <hatemtmtm> tnks flannel
[01:02] <wsa> Randall: also it looks like you don't even have X running -- or do you?
[01:02] <wsa> Randall: so nm about using the gtk tool
[01:03] <lu31415> wsa: could you help with a similar problem, with ati?...
[01:03] <Randall> wsa: what do i do to check?
[01:03] <SamanthaGothLove> Hi can somebody please help me with setting up a small office network connection?
[01:04] <sleven> i still cant do python myscript.py from anywhere. i have the script in /user/local/bin/
[01:04] <Flannel> sleven: You'd have to do python /path/to/myscript.py or just myscript.py (may need +x)
[01:04] <Randall> wsa: how do i check that i have everything properly installed for my video card cause i've tried everything and like nothing works
[01:05] <nyquist_> lo.. i know is OT but does anyone here have a newzbin acct?
[01:05] <wsa> Randall: okay well the first thing to do is to is change your xorg.conf to be like so, but don't start X again yet
[01:05] <Flannel> nyquist_: That's offtopic yes, try #ubuntu-offtopic
[01:05] <wsa> Randall: like so: http://pastebin.com/m1ecde86b
[01:05] <richardus> will users of a vanilla 8.04 machine be prompted to update to 8.10 when it's released?
[01:05] <Randall> k
[01:05] <sleven> +x ?
[01:06] <Flannel> sleven: make it executable
[01:06] <Ca{P}RiCoRN> i got screwed by 8.04 and also flash player
[01:06] <sleven> Flannel: yes but cant i have a directory which i can launch from anywhere?
[01:06] <LjL> sleven: after you make it executable, you'll be able to do that.
[01:07] <sleven> Flannel? i cant laucnh a script from anywhere? people seemed to think so before(even though they couldnt make it work)
[01:07] <Randall> wsa: after i change that what do i do?
[01:07] <sleven> ok how do i make an exe out of a pythonfile?
[01:07] <Flannel> sleven: Yes, but you have to type the name of the script, not start the python interpreter.  Stuff in your path is only executable from everywhere, not accessible from everywhere.  If I put myfile.txt in /usr/bin/, I don't expect to be able to type nano myfile.txt and fave it open that file regardless of my cwd
[01:07] <Flannel> sleven: er, have.
[01:07] <LjL> sleven: chmod +x filename
[01:08] <wsa> Randall: then "sudo apt-get install linux-restricted-modules-`uname -r`"
[01:08] <SamanthaGothLove> I have two computers and both have 2 LAN card's each installed, and I have a motorola SurfBoard broad band cable modem that has a USB and LAN connection so I have connected both computers with a 50" CAT5 cable and one computer is connected to the modem using a USB and the other is connected with a CAT5 LAN cable? so now both computers have internet but the network connection isn't working,...
[01:08] <SamanthaGothLove> ...so here it is how do i fix this please?
[01:08] <sleven> if i do script.py i get permission denied
[01:08] <Flannel> !ics | SamanthaGothLove
[01:08] <Flannel> sleven: that has to do with its permissions.
[01:08] <sleven> yes but it is in my path
[01:09] <LjL> sleven: it must be executable for *your user*. what does "ls -l /usr/local/bin/script.py" say?
[01:09] <gaping_goatse> where would I go to report bugs only for intrepid?
[01:09] <sleven> i dont get it should i make it an exe or is it possible to do script.py from anywhere if i change the right sutff?
[01:09] <LjL> gaping_goatse: usual plage
[01:09] <Flannel> !bugs | gaping_goatse
[01:09] <LjL> place, even.
[01:09] <gaping_goatse> thought so. thanks
[01:09] <SamanthaGothLove> No I just want to know how to have the cables and all set up i can do the programing from there just want to know is i've wired everything ok or not?
[01:10] <sleven> -rw-r--r-- l
[01:10] <Randall> wsa: it told be it was already the newest version
[01:10] <sleven> -rw-r--r-- l user 312
[01:10] <LjL> sleven: then you haven't made it executable at all
[01:10] <wsa> Randall: sweet
[01:10] <LjL> sleven: i told you you need to chmod +x filename
[01:10] <sleven> so how do I?
[01:10] <wsa> Randall: now try 'modprobe nvidia'
[01:10] <sleven> ah it worked, thanks!
[01:10] <Randall> wsa: FATAL: Error running install command for nvidia
[01:11] <DigitalFiz> is there a way to connect to radmin in ubuntu
[01:11] <sleven> now do i have to do that spearately for each file or can i do it fo the whole dir?
[01:11] <wsa> Randall: mrrrr?  that's strange; hang on
[01:11] <LjL> sleven: each file (although you can certainly use wildcards)
[01:11] <sleven> chmod +x /usr../* makes all executable?
[01:11] <LjL> sleven: yes
[01:12] <LjL> !cli > sleven    (sleven, see the private message from Ubotu)
[01:12] <sleven> k thanks
[01:12] <ytoox> what package brings kcontrol on ubuntu?
[01:12] <ytoox> please
[01:12] <Randall> wsa: sudo modprobe nvidia worked i believe (it did nothing)
[01:12] <hubar> Is it a good idea to "update" from hardy to intrepid?
[01:12] <wsa> Randall: haaay good catch!
[01:12] <yoyoned> sleven: chmod +x /usr../* could be dangerous.  onlu chmod the files you move there
[01:12] <hubar> I mean using apt-get.
[01:12] <ytoox> what package brings kcontrol on ubuntu?
[01:12] <sleven> yoyoned, k
[01:13] <wsa> Randall: now do this 'lsmod | grep nvidia'
[01:13] <wsa> you should see it there
[01:13] <wsa> (modprobe is usually silent on a successful insertion)
[01:13] <Randall> nvidia               3932108  0
[01:13] <Randall> agpgart                35016  2 nvidia,intel_agp
[01:13] <wsa> sweet
[01:13] <anders> hubar, i and many others have already, make sure to backup your data if something goes wrong and just try
[01:13] <sleven> yoyoned, why is it dangerous anyway, could open a whole into my computer?
[01:13] <wsa> okay try starting X again -- if it works, that does not mean that we are done -- but tell me if it works
[01:14] <hubar> anders: What did you do ?
[01:14] <Randall> usually it messes up and i have to completely restart comp and i'm on wireless :(
[01:14] <yoyoned> sleven: there are some files that are not meant to be executable.
[01:14] <hubar> anders: and is it ok to upgrade distribution even when the official has not been released?
[01:14] <ytoox> what package brings kcontrol on ubuntu?
[01:15] <Flannel> hubar: If you don't mind (and are comfortable with) using a development version of the software
[01:15] <wsa> Randall: if that was really the only error, then it *should* work
[01:15] <yoyoned> sleven: in general, it's a bad idea to elevate permissions for no reason
[01:15] <ytoox> what package brings kcontrol on ubuntu?
[01:15] <sleven> yoyoned, i see
[01:15] <anders> hubar, the rc is out, and the final release is in 4 days, however, if you aim for maximum stability i don't see the point in upgrading
[01:15] <hubar> Flannel: hmm, I will wait then. :)
[01:15] <thiebaude> !kcontrol
[01:16] <ytoox> ok
[01:16] <hubar> anders: Did you use any gui interface to update?
[01:16] <DamienMiranda> My nfs common utilities fails to start on start up
[01:16] <sleven> can u do most of the thinhgs u can with linux terminal with win command prompt?
[01:16] <Flannel> sleven: not easily, no.
[01:16] <sleven> it seems a lot easier and more powerful, have never used wim prompt much
[01:17] <wsa> sleven: not even close
[01:17] <anders> hubar, do update-manager -d and you should have a gui to guide you through the process
[01:17] <thiebaude> !cli
[01:17] <Arcticfox> okay guys I need to know how to get spore up and running on Ubuntu i have the disk and CD key but when i open it It says could not run auto run
[01:18] <hubar> For the official release, I do a update-manager --dist-upgrade right?
[01:18] <yoyoned> sleven: the comand line is like you said.  Fast and powerfull.  it is a bit to learn, but well worth it
[01:18] <Flannel> hubar: You need to set your preferences to non-LTS only upgrades (in software sources/properties) and then it'll let you know automatically through update-manager
[01:18] <Flannel> Arcticfox: You'll need to use wine, and you'll have more luck in #winehq
[01:19] <hubar> Flannel: preferences? from synaptic?
[01:19] <Coutaux> hello, i just managed to setup a poptop (pptp) vpn server on my ubuntu server, and connecting/logging in seems to work on my home PC. but after that i can not open any websites nor use IRC or email... seems like no data comes through or something. does anyone know what's going on?
[01:19] <Flannel> hubar: Um, I think it's software repositories or software preferences or something.  Not Synaptic preferences.  It also has its own menu entry in administration.
[01:20] <wsa> winterelf: do you know that you shouldn't irc as root?
[01:20] <winterelf> hi
[01:21] <sleven> how do i untar from the command line?
[01:21] <csilk> sleven, tar -zxvf
[01:21] <wsa> winterelf: if I can exploit your irc client right now, I have root access to your box; you really ought to consider signing off and reconnecting as a limited user
[01:21] <winterelf> i need to check something so please some1 addres me "winterelf: something..."
[01:21] <ddmdllt> sleven .tar.gz, .tar.bz2 or .tar
[01:21] <Flannel> sleven: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FileCompression#Command%20Line%20Usage
[01:21] <ddmdllt> ?
[01:21] <auckla_> Hi, I'm sure you guys have been asked this question a million times.
[01:21] <lu31415> getting ati hd2400 to work in hardy heron, can anyone help?
[01:21] <tim167> hi, i have copied files from my laptop on usb harddisk, now i want to copy them to another computer but i get 'permission denied' i can't read the files, what can i do ? thanks
[01:22] <csilk> ddmdllt,  yeah I guess I should of asked that before giving him that command ;)
[01:22] <xtian> kinda new to ubuntu, does anyone know of some good programs to rip dvd's using x264?
[01:22] <auckla_> In the themes panel, I tried turning on all the cool effects. And now my desktop for that user is all garbled.
[01:22] <winterelf> some1?
[01:22] <tim167> xtian, dvdrip
[01:22] <auckla_> How do I set it back to the miniium so I can use that user account again?
[01:22] <winterelf> i need to check something so please some1 addres me "winterelf: something..."
[01:22] <ddmdllt> sleven: oops, Flannel has answered well
[01:22] <hubar> Flannel: ok. I have release upgrade in software sources -> updates.
[01:22] <csilk> winterelf,
[01:22] <xtian> tim167: ill take a look at that, sounds pretty straightforward, haha
[01:23] <Gnea> winterelf: it's someone, not some1.
[01:23] <jo4> What client do i use for the vnc server that comes with ubuntu and does it has a windows alternative?
[01:23] <hubar> Flannel: LTS means long term release?
[01:23] <winterelf> lol
[01:23] <winterelf> it's not working!
[01:23] <xtian> tim167: does dvd rip handle dvd protection, like css?
[01:23] <thiebaude> LTS=long term suport
[01:23] <thiebaude> support
[01:24] <hubar> Yeah that is what I meant. :)
[01:24] <gaping_goatse> can people check my bug to see if anybody else has it? Stupid brightness bug... https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/289701
[01:24] <hubar> There are never -> Normal Releases -> LTS.
[01:24] <winterelf> i'm using irssi and i  did some highlight window but now all the messages writen in a little box in the upper side of the screen, that's sux
[01:25] <hubar> in show new releases.
[01:25] <Flannel> hubar: yes.
[01:25] <gwarqwa>   /join #linuxcranks
[01:25] <hubar> which one should I specify?
[01:25] <JulioNeto> How can I close a Zumbi process? (In my case it is FF :/)
[01:25] <RyanPrior> JulioNeto: you pray.
[01:25] <Flannel> hubar: If you want to go to intrepid, you want non-LTS as well.  Otherwise you wont be notified until 10.04
[01:25] <JulioNeto> ¬¬
[01:25] <csilk> winterelf,  are you using the root user account right now?
[01:26] <hakr> whoa fuck
[01:26] <hakr> instant lag
[01:26] <hakr> peace
[01:26] <csilk> !language
[01:26] <FloodBot2> hakr: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[01:26] <hubar> Flannel: what if I just want the official relase?
[01:26] <hubar> Flannel: Do I needto change anything?
[01:26] <winterelf> can't fix it to work ! i want that only people who addres me as winterelf will be shown in the little screen  but instead everybody is there in the little screen, anyone have an idea?
[01:26] <auckla_> In the "Appearance Panel" Under the tab "Visual Effects". I set it for extra to see what it would do. And it made the screen on one user account all garbled. How do I restore it back to its original settings? :) All help is greatly appreciated.
[01:26] <niccholaspage> Can someone please help me
[01:26] <Flannel> hubar: What are your three options?
[01:26] <Gnea> niccholaspage: what's the problem?
[01:27] <hubar> Flannel: never/normal releases/LTS only
[01:27] <niccholaspage> When I start Firefox and compiz is on, I don't see my window bar and I need to press F11 Twice to fix it.
[01:27] <Flannel> hubar: you want normal releases
[01:27] <RyanPrior> JulioNeto: then you find the PID (ps aux | grep firefox) and kill it (kill -9 thepid)
[01:27] <Gnea> niccholaspage: what happens if compiz is off?
[01:28] <niccholaspage> Gnea: It is fine.
[01:28] <||ChAoS||> what package would I install to get System -> Preferences -> Sound.... cant configure my audio card in mythbuntu
[01:28] <Gnea> niccholaspage: what happens if you turn compiz off, launch firefox, then turn compiz on while firefox is running?
[01:28] <niccholaspage> Gnea: Let me see.
[01:29] <niccholaspage> Gnea: The Window Bar stays.
[01:29] <jo4> i want to connect to my ubuntu desktop with a vnc client from windows, but i need to connect to THE desktop (:0) so that rules tightvnc out.. can i use the default vnc server that comes with ubuntu?
[01:29] <niccholaspage> Gnea:Hello?
[01:30] <Gnea> niccholaspage: what is the 'window bar'?
[01:31] <winterelf> ok, i will ask in another way... someone knows what this dude did to his irssi in this link? --> http://quadpoint.org/articles/irssi
[01:31] <winterelf> (and how)
[01:31] <niccholaspage> Gnea:The bar with the Minimize,Maxamize,CLose etc.
[01:31] <winterelf> (From the big picture of his screen and so on)
[01:31] <Flannel> winterelf: At what point? There's a lot of stuff going on
[01:32] <xaron> Can ubuntu work with root mounted as read only?
[01:32] <winterelf> heh just for fun, u know
[01:32] <RyanPrior> winterelf: This is not a good place to ask that question. If you have a particular bug, or need help understanding a term or something, that's one thing; asking us to read an article and explain it to you is not in the scope of the help we provide, really.
[01:32] <auckla_> In the "Appearance Panel" Under the tab "Visual Effects". I set it for extra to see what it would do. And it made the screen on one user account all garbled. How do I restore it back to its original settings? :) All help is greatly appreciated.
[01:32] <wsa> hey Randall how did it go?
[01:32] <Flannel> winterelf: you mean when he creates a highlight window?  You want to get rid of that?
[01:32] <Randall> wsa: didn't work
[01:32] <simprix> What package provides MagickCore.h
[01:32] <Gnea> niccholaspage: okay. now what happens if you turn compiz back off - does it all reappear?
[01:33] <niccholaspage> Gnea:Let me see
[01:33] <Randall> wsa: crashed and when i reloaded it told me to run in low-res mode and my resolution is off now
[01:33] <winterelf> Flannel: yes
[01:33] <wsa> Randall: the driver at this point is successfully installed -- it may not load after a reboot however
[01:33] <winterelf> RyanPrior: u right sorry
[01:33] <winterelf> :)
[01:33] <niccholaspage> Gnea:My window bar is still gone after I switch to metacity.
[01:34] <Flannel> winterelf: first you'll want to move to make that window active, and then /wc for window close
[01:34] <Randall> wsa: also when it crashes here is where it always pauses before telling me that i need to boot in low res:    running local boot scripts (/etc/rc.local)
[01:34] <Gnea> niccholaspage: okay. is this a new installation or have you been running ubuntu for awhile now?
[01:34] <Flannel> winterelf: so `/window highlight` should make that one active, and then /wc
[01:34] <sleven> anyone know assembler/FASM?
[01:34] <Randall> wsa: what do i need to do to make it work properly and um check everything is installed right?
[01:34] <niccholaspage> Gnea: I did a reinstall like 2 days ago, So it is new.
[01:35] <sleven> im trying to run an assembler program , i have the FASM.exe untared but i get no command found when using it
[01:35] <sleven> command not found
[01:35] <Gnea> niccholaspage: and has this problem been occuring since the first time you turned compiz on?
[01:35] <mneptok> sleven: .exe are Windows executables
[01:35] <niccholaspage> Gnea: No. I have always had Compiz on.
[01:35] <wsa> Randall: the proprietary nvidia driver is installed at this point
[01:36] <Gnea> niccholaspage: so this just started happening witin the past hour?
[01:36] <winterelf> Flannel: tnx, i just start to use rssi , don't know everything, but it's still good sssoft
[01:36] <niccholaspage> Gnea: Yes.
[01:36] <RyanPrior> sleven: If you install Wine and mark it as executable (chmod +x), then you can run it.
[01:36] <wsa> Randall: 'modprobe' loaded it into the kernel -- if your kernel does automatic module loading, we are done, if not, we need to add a line that says 'nvidia' to /etc/modules
[01:36] <Gnea> niccholaspage: what happens if you make a new account, logout and login to the new account, turn on compiz and then run firefox, in that order?
[01:36] <Randall> so what do i do to fix it?
[01:37] <wsa> Randall: well I don't know why it crashed at this point
[01:37] <niccholaspage> Can I remove the .compiz folder first?
[01:37] <mneptok> Randall: how did you install this nvidia driver? what card do you have?
[01:37] <ddmdllt> sleven: are you trying to use fasm specifically or do you want just a working assembler?
[01:37] <Randall> Geforce4: mx 420
[01:37] <wsa> Randall: can you pastebin your Xorg.0.log again and remind me what nvidia card you have?
[01:37] <Coutaux> hello, i just managed to setup a poptop (pptp) vpn server on my ubuntu server, and connecting/logging in seems to work on my home PC. but after that i can't connect to anything... seems like no data comes through or something. does anyone know what's going on?
[01:37] <okidogi> Hi,this is my question about fetchmail, can somebody help me?
[01:37] <okidogi> http://pastebin.com/m25902793
[01:37] <mneptok> Randall: and how was this driver installed?
[01:38] <Gnea> niccholaspage: what .compiz folder?
[01:38] <Randall> i'm not really sure anymoe
[01:38] <niccholaspage> Gnea: In the home directory
[01:38] <simprix> Is there a way to find out what package provides a certain file.
[01:38] <wsa> mneptok: he installed linux-restricted-modules
[01:38] <Gnea> niccholaspage: in which home directory? yours or the new accounts?
[01:38] <Flannel> simprix: dpkg -S /path/to/file
[01:38] <mneptok> wsa: that does not install graphics drivers
[01:38] <niccholaspage> I renamed it
[01:38] <niccholaspage> And still
[01:38] <niccholaspage> Firefox does the same.
[01:38] <Gnea> you what?
[01:38] <Uplink> i cant find whats my bluetooth model
[01:39] <wsa> mneptok: according to the description of the package it does
[01:39] <mneptok> wsa: nm. i read "ubuntu-restricted-extras"
[01:39] <mneptok> Randall: sudo apt-get install nvidia-glx
[01:39] <Randall> wsa: Xorg.0.log http://pastebin.com/m2d8f2832
[01:39] <niccholaspage> Gnea: I deleted the .compiz folder in my home folder, And nothing different happened
[01:39] <Gnea> niccholaspage: no no no, you need to make a whole new account, from scratch - renaming isn't going to prove anything. what we need to figure out is whether the problem is system-wide or just with an account setting.
[01:39] <mneptok> Randall: does that tell you "package already installed?"
[01:40] <ncfi1013_> is kde3 still supported, namely k3b? or is everything kde4 now?
[01:40] <beyta> help me please... i want to install a software from tarball, but i stuck on 'make' command.. when i enter make, terminal shows me bashL: ***./make: no such file or directory... why?
[01:40] <Flannel> ncfi1013_: It is still supported.  KDE in Hardy will be supported for another year or so.
[01:40] <mneptok> ncfi1013_: *nothing* KDE4 is officially supported
[01:41] <Randall> mne: i'm pretty sure mine is a legacy driver
[01:41] <joaquinm> niccholaspage: whats exactly your problem ?
[01:41] <Uplink> beyta: what? u cant compile something from tar ball
[01:41] <Randall> mne: so would it be all that stuff -legacy
[01:41] <niccholaspage> Gnea:Brb.
[01:41] <beyta> Uplink: yes.. i can't compile it.
[01:41] <Uplink> beyta: ...
[01:42] <Randall> wsa: if you didn't see the pastebin of xorg.0.log: http://pastebin.com/m2d8f2832
[01:42] <Uplink> beyta: why would u want to compile something on .tar? i dont think you can... =\
[01:42] <mneptok> Randall: ah right. you said a GeForce4 MX. -legacy is what you want.
[01:42] <beyta> Uplink, i want to install.. i have extract...
[01:42] <Randall> mne: tells me nvidia-glx-legacy is newest version
[01:42] <mneptok> beyta: what software is this?
[01:42] <ncfi1013_> then why can't i get k3b to burn discs on either a dvdr or dvdrw?
[01:42] <ddmdllt> beyta: pastebin what appears on your screen may help ;)
[01:43] <Uplink> beyta: then extract...
[01:43] <mneptok> Randall: reboot. boot to recovery mode. run the "xfix" option from there.
[01:43] <WelshDragon> beyta, you need to type make, not ./make
[01:43] <Randall> i've tried that
[01:43] <Randall> mne: after running xfix what should i try
[01:44] <beyta> Uplink, all software i want to install... i just want to make manually.. download the tar ball, extract and type cd.... ./configure.... make..... but make command stuck me for all software...
[01:44] <mneptok> Randall: after that, boot normally, and look at System > Admin > Hardware Drivers
[01:44] <Randall> mne: is there anything i should uninstall as well
[01:44] <mneptok> beyta: what software is this?
[01:44] <ncfi1013_> then why can't i get k3b to burn discs on either a dvdr or dvdrw?
[01:44] <beyta> WelshDragon, i have try make also...
[01:44] <Uplink> beyta: what sw
[01:45] <ddmdllt> beyta: have the configure step worked correctly?
[01:45] <beyta> but terminal still show command not found... sometime 'no such directory'....
[01:45] <Flannel> beyta: What are you trying to install though?
[01:45]  * mneptok stares
[01:45] <Randall> mne: as well as uninstalling conflicting things (give me an idea) do i enable it in in hardware drivers after xfix
[01:45] <mneptok> Randall: correct
[01:45] <beyta> ettercap
[01:45] <mneptok> !info ettercap
[01:45] <Randall> mne: what things would conflict possibly and mess it up
[01:45] <Flannel> beyta: That's in the repositories, yeah.
[01:46] <mneptok> beyta: install from the repo
[01:46] <Flannel> beyta: sudo apt-get install ettercap
[01:46] <Volkodav> how do I install flash 10 ?
[01:46] <beyta> Flannel, i know about apt-get... just i want to install manually...
[01:46] <Randall> mne: sorry last question will i have to go through getting the driver installed again? by adding nvidia into xorg.conf?
[01:46] <mneptok> beyta: why?
[01:47] <mneptok> Randall: you should *never* manually edit xorg.conf
[01:47] <scunizi> Randall, finish typing a nick with TAB otherwise the person you're talking to won't get your message to them highlighted increasing the chance of not seeing your message.
[01:47] <mneptok> beyta: why not install form the repo?
[01:47] <sleven> ddmdllt: i just want to try assembler
[01:47] <beyta> mneptok, repo?
[01:47] <Randall> scunizi sorry explain?
[01:47]  * wsa has only ever used xorg.confs that he has written himself
[01:48] <niccholaspage> Gnea: It is not System-Wide, The other user was fine.
[01:48] <mneptok> beyta: sudo apt-get install ettercap
[01:48] <scunizi> Randall, your conversation to mneptok you always type mne.. and thats it..  on his side it's not highlighted..
[01:48] <Randall> mneptok: : so i won't need to do anything after the reboot and should just try enabling and see what happens
[01:48] <niccholaspage> Gnea: You here?
[01:48] <Randall> scunizi: ok got it
[01:48] <beyta> mneptok, i just don't want because i want to try manually... learn everything... apt-get i know... but tarball i failed...
[01:49] <ddmdllt> sleven: trying using the gnu assembler may be a better choice ;)
[01:49] <mneptok> beyta: if you don't know why make won't work for you, and you don't know what a repo is, you're really not ready to be compiling software yourself yet. walk before you run.
[01:49] <scunizi> Randall, np.. TAB helps complete nicks.. type the first few characters and hit tab..
[01:49] <mneptok> beyta: there's no bragging rights inherent in compiling.
[01:49] <mneptok> Randall: quite right.
[01:49] <Flannel> beyta: doing it manually won't give you a whole lot of information, instead of sudo apt-get install ettercap, you just configure, make, make install.  one command vs three, not a whole lot of insight.
[01:49] <Randall> mneptok: k, going to give it a shot :)
[01:50] <mneptok> Randall: via con dios :)
[01:50] <beyta> Flannel, i try make form tarball, because, maybe sometime i don;t have connection internet... so i need to install from tarball.
[01:50] <csilk> Flannel, he'll probs go back to app when ge realises he needs several dependencies :)
[01:50] <csilk> *apt
[01:51] <mneptok> beyta: that makes no sense
[01:51] <Flannel> beyta: If you don't have an internet connection, you're not going to magically have the source.
[01:51] <MachinTrucChose> !emulator
[01:51] <MachinTrucChose> !emulation
[01:51] <wsa> mneptok: there are 'the object code uses the full instruction set of the cpu it runs on if I have compiled it correctly' rights
[01:51] <auckla_> Hi, is anyone currently available to help me? :)
[01:51] <beyta> Flannel, i download tarball from somewhre and back to my room then install it..
[01:51] <MachinTrucChose> are there any gameboy advance emulators that work fine on Linux?
[01:51] <RyanPrior> !virtualization | MachinTrucChose
[01:52] <wsa> which isn't anything to sneeze at
[01:52] <Flannel> beyta: you can do the same with debs, actually.
[01:52] <mneptok> wsa: packages from repos do the same thing.
[01:52] <scunizi> MachinTrucChose, open synaptic and search for gameboy.. you should come up with references.
[01:52] <Flannel> beyta: Synaptic will even generate a download script for you
[01:52] <wsa> mneptok: are you telling me that if I have a core 2 chip then the packages in the repos will be optimized for a core 2 chip
[01:52] <Guest36544> im having lots of performance issues in kubuntu 8.10 there is a 5 second lag just to open terminal does anyone know if ubuntu is equally hobbled?
[01:52] <sleven> ddmdllt, does it come with ubuntu? how do i call it?
[01:52] <mneptok> wsa: this is why there are separate repos for i386 and x86_64 and PPC and Sparc and ...
[01:53] <||ChAoS||> having problems getting my sound card working.  Nfroce2 chipset, hardware test detects the card, but I get no audio during the test
[01:53] <SiON42X> Guest36544: Go to #ubuntu+1 for Intrepid advice.
[01:53] <MachinTrucChose> scunizi: no GBA emulators in Synaptic/apt-get. Only GB and GBC. There are some on Google though.
[01:53] <ddmdllt> beyta: and you can see the script to guess what you have to downlaod (from a windows machine if you can't do otherwise)
[01:53] <wsa> mneptok: note that I said core 2 and not "generic x86_64"
[01:53] <mneptok> wsa: are you telling me that the Core chips expand upon the i386 instruction set in ways that are not compliant with the i386 instruction set?
[01:53] <ddmdllt> sleven: try "man as"
[01:53] <Vantrax> MachinTrucChose, run a windows one through WINE if you want to use a gba emulator
[01:53] <mneptok> wsa: same for x86_64
[01:53] <kapace> hello
[01:54] <scunizi> MachinTrucChose, check http://getdeb.net.. they might have what you're looking for.
[01:54] <Flannel> wsa: The kernel does the optomizations at runtime, yes.
[01:54] <Vantrax> !WINE | MachinTrucChose
[01:54] <kapace> i made a link to my home folder and now i want to get rid of it
[01:54] <ddmdllt> sleven: and install build-essentials if not already done
[01:54] <kapace> if i put it in the trash it will delete my home folder right?
[01:54] <mneptok> wsa: plain and simple. *any* performance gains in terms of time spent will be more than made up for over the life of the package as the compile process.
[01:54] <army12bc> isn't cedega better than wine?
[01:54] <scunizi> Vantrax, but he's looking for a gameboy emulator.. gba
[01:54] <auckla_> In the "Appearance Panel" Under the tab "Visual Effects". I set it for extra to see what it would do. And it made the screen on one user account all garbled. How do I restore it back to its original settings? :) All help is greatly appreciated.
[01:54] <SiON42X> kapace: If it's a symbolic link, just rm it.
[01:54] <MachinTrucChose> Vantrax: that waas my next objective. But it's sad that we can't even get a native GBA emulator running properly on Linux.
[01:54] <kapace> SiON42X, i can
[01:55] <kapace> i can't remember
[01:55] <SiON42X> kapace: Open terminal, go to the dir where the link is, ls -ltr.  If it's a symbolic link you'll see it in the perms and the -> arrow.
[01:55] <thinkpaduser> anyone using pm-utils?  i want to run a script between memory and disk functions with s2both
[01:55] <wsa> mneptok: that may be the case for general use but you shouldn't sneer at people who compile things themselves
[01:55] <kapace> ok
[01:55] <mneptok> wsa: IOW, an app compiled on your machine specifically may give you 45 seconds back during your use of the software. compiling will take >45 seconds. and when libraries get updated, expect breakage.
[01:55] <sleven> ddmdllt: i cant find build-essentials, no man page no apt-get
[01:56] <Vantrax> scunizi, gba stands for gameboy advance
[01:56] <Vantrax> MachinTrucChose, probably could, but i doubt the demand is there with wine being able to do it
[01:56] <SiON42X> I have a mobo with 4 SATA ports and fakeraid...trying to decide between using the hardware fakeraid, using software RAID during Ubuntu install, or just using the disks separately (one for kernel, one for /usr, one for /home, etc).  Any thoughts?  I was going to do 0+1.
[01:56] <leet_double> smile
[01:56] <scunizi> Vantrax, so what you were suggesting was to run an emulator made for win via wine?  ok.. got it..
[01:56] <wsa> mneptok: yeah don't do this here; you're talking to a gentoo user right now; I am not going to say that ubuntu sucks because you use pre-compiled binaries optimized for a broad range of cpus, don't tell me that my way sucks
[01:57] <bimberi> sleven: build-essential  (no s at the end)
[01:57] <mneptok> wsa: i don't sneer at them. i sneer at the idea that using gcc "teaches me about Linux"
[01:57] <keithclark> How to test if fglrx is installed and working properly?
[01:57] <wsa> mneptok: nobody said that
[01:57] <mneptok> wsa: just like i never used the word "sucks"
[01:57] <scunizi> keithclark, type glxgears into a terminal
[01:57] <ddmdllt> sleven: yes bimberi is probably right
[01:57] <keithclark> scunizi, thanks
[01:58] <scunizi> keithclark, np
[01:58] <bimberi> probably,  it's rare though ;)
[01:58] <SiON42X> By the way, Visualboyadvance is in Synaptic.
[01:58] <SiON42X> And is a full GBA emu.
[01:58] <sleven> yes i had it already
[01:58] <sleven> thanks
[01:59] <scunizi> MachinTrucChose, see what SiON42X said above
[01:59] <auckla_> Thanks for all the help. :*(
[01:59] <auckla_> Peace
[01:59] <giorgio> hi guys, i've been in trouble, trying to install cisco aironet 350 on my T30.
[01:59] <giorgio> does anybody can help me out
[01:59] <SiON42X> MachinTrucChose: Go to Synaptic, search for visualboyadvance.  Best GBA emu for linux.
[02:00] <SiON42X> So, anyone here know anything about RAID with Ubuntu?
[02:00] <army12bc> can anyone tell me where to get cedega
[02:00] <ddmdllt> sleven: don't hesitate to google the web about gnu assembler, syntax is a bit different from other ones
[02:00] <army12bc> get-apt doesn't work
[02:00] <wsa> 20:53 < mneptok> wsa: are you telling me that the Core chips expand upon the  i386 instruction set in ways that are not compliant with the  i386 instruction set?
[02:00] <ddmdllt> sleven: (order of operands for example)
[02:00] <Flannel> wsa: It's over, please drop it.
[02:00] <Flannel> wsa: Or at least take it elsewhere.
[02:00] <SiON42X> army12bc: Transgaming.com
[02:00] <ldiamond> I installed Ubuntu Server, then I setup my network card by adding stuffs to /etc/networking/interfaces and to /etc/modules
[02:01] <ldiamond> But now it wont work anymore.
[02:01] <Gnea> !raid | SiON42X
[02:01] <Flannel> army12bc: cegeda isn't free, but wine is.  Are you sure wine won't work for you?
[02:01] <ldiamond> (it says no such device)
[02:01] <SiON42X> Gnea: Yeah, I know that, looking for some advice on configuration.  ;)
[02:01] <SiON42X> Gnea: Thanks though.  :)
[02:01] <army12bc> i just wanted to look at cegeda
[02:01] <sleven> the asembler in the linux-kernel is it written in gnu assembler?
[02:01] <Gnea> SiON42X: oh ok - wish i could help ya there.. i'm sure someone else knows, sooner or later :)
[02:02] <sleven> and when u learn one assembler do you learn all assembler-dialects kind of(even if gnu is a bit different)?
[02:02] <giorgio> i need help with cisco aironet 350, pls
[02:02] <Gnea> army12bc: it's just wine with extra stuff to make it work better under the hood
[02:02] <ddmdllt> sleven: probably not written in assembler
[02:02] <sleven> no C mostly but some assembler, or so ive heard
[02:03] <ddmdllt> sleven: yes dialects are not so different
[02:03] <ldiamond> I need help setting up my NIC, it used to work, now its not working anymore.
[02:03] <SiON42X> ldiamond: What has changed?
[02:03] <ddmdllt> sleven: haven't look at the code, but sure it doesn't use microsoft assembler
[02:04] <ldiamond> SiON42X, nothing.
[02:04] <ldiamond> I put my laptop in sleep mode, then woke it up and my screen wouldnt turn on. So i had to reboot it... then no more connection
[02:04] <SiON42X> ldiamond: Are you using network manager or something else?
[02:04] <SiON42X> ldiamond: Hardy?
[02:04] <army12bc> on cegeda its not free and neither is crossover?
[02:05] <sleven> grammar question, in english a and an is chosen by sound not actual spelling right? or it hat wrong? a (J)Unix or an Unix?
[02:05] <SiON42X> sleven: I have a Unix box.
[02:05] <ldiamond> SiON42X, I installed ubuntu 8.10 Server edition. My PC was offline during the install, so I skip the networking setup
[02:05] <Flannel> sleven: #ubuntu-offtopic
[02:05] <SiON42X> sleven: You have an awesome unix box.
[02:05] <scunizi> sleven, an is used before a word that begins with a vowel
[02:05] <ldiamond> SiON42X, now tho, I have gnome installed too
[02:05] <SiON42X> !intrepid|ldiamond
[02:06] <ldiamond> SiON42X, I might have removed Evolution too, before rebooting.
[02:06] <SiON42X> ldiamond: Networking changes big big between Hardy and Intrepid.
[02:06] <SiON42X> ldiamond: For some cards anyways.
[02:06] <luite> scunizi: an hour, a unique ...
[02:06] <SiON42X> ldiamond: I'd try #ubuntu+1
[02:06] <ddmdllt> scunizi: "u" is not a vowel?
[02:06] <army12bc> anyone know about crossover?
[02:06] <calc> hmm lots of broken software between RC and release, not too likely ;-)
[02:06] <Gnea> army12bc: right, not everything is free - the license provisions that it doesn't have to be - but i can tell you that both are worth it, depending on what you need to do
[02:06] <scunizi> luite, didn't say there weren't acceptions  :)
[02:06] <ldiamond> k, thanks
[02:06] <SiON42X> calc: Ubottu's a pessimist.
[02:06] <calc> SiON42X: heh :)
[02:06] <andresmh> is there a way to figure out which application is using the sound output?
[02:07] <Gnea> andresmh: lsof | grep libasound
[02:07]  * calc is syncing up all of his intrepid images
[02:07] <giorgio> somebody can help me with cisco aironet 350
[02:07] <SiON42X> giorgio: What about it?
[02:07] <giorgio> thanks sion
[02:08] <SiON42X> giorgio: Don't thank me yet, I don't know if I can help.  :)
[02:08] <Musashimaru> hello all. anybody tried to ru alfresco on ubuntu?
[02:08] <giorgio> i tried to install driver for aironet 350, but i cant
[02:08] <giorgio> i tried with ndiswrapper
[02:08] <SiON42X> giorgio: Define can't...do you get an error?
[02:08] <SiON42X> Ahh.
[02:08] <giorgio> it doesnt work
[02:08] <groceryheist> hello! can i have some help from someone who knows a lot about grub and drive mounting?
[02:08] <cougar_> .
[02:09] <giorgio> i dont know which driver do i have to use
[02:09] <scunizi> !fstab | groceryheist
[02:09] <scunizi> !grub | groceryheist
[02:09] <cougar_> hello can anyone help me with
[02:09] <groceryheist> ya i know what those are
[02:09] <andresmh> thanks Ginea, wow, the randomest  processes use libasound
[02:09] <giorgio> i downloaded from cisco aironet 350
[02:09] <scunizi> groceryheist, what have you got going?
[02:09] <cougar_> hello can anyone help me with X, and Nvidia
[02:09] <ddmdllt> groceryheist: you should better ask your questions ;)
[02:09] <jjdiamond> can some help me with network sharing
[02:09] <SiON42X> giorgio: Do you know what firmware your card has?
[02:09] <redvamp128> no control panel?
[02:10] <giorgio> not exactly
[02:10] <redvamp128> there is a command to install that... if you setup-- the restricted drivers..
[02:10] <redvamp128> or if you are looking to overclock?
[02:10] <giorgio> i thought was cisco aironet , when i do lspci | grep wireless
[02:10] <SiON42X> giorgio: Can you see networks at all?
[02:10] <giorgio> that what i got, cisco aironet wirless
[02:11] <giorgio> the wired, yes
[02:11] <groceryheist> i was dual booting xp and ubuntu, i installed grub on my xp drive by mistake, i can no longer boot into either XP or ubuntu.
[02:11] <giorgio> but the wireless
[02:11] <jjdiamond> i have 2 computers on my network one with windows vista ultimate and the other with ubuntu.  i'm trying to figure out how to view a shared folder on the vista machine via the ubuntu machine
[02:11] <redvamp128> I could not get the trick to work in the control panel-- but compiling nvclock worked for me..
[02:11] <army12bc> after installing inside vista i have decided to make ubuntu fully on my hd. is there a way to take over the vista partition when ubuntu is installed inside?
[02:11] <groceryheist> i think i want to back up some files from my xp drive then install ubuntu on it
[02:11] <SiON42X> giorgio: Okay, so you can't even see networks via wireless.  Thanks, just a moment.
[02:11] <alanbshepard70> Long story short I was traveling with my new laptop for the first time and instead of re-installing Ubuntu using LUKS I tried to follow online instructions to install and use encfs + fuse to encrypt my Home dir. Well I never quite finished the process as I ran out of time and could not get everything to work right so now I can't login. When prompted for my username and password at the Ubuntu login screen I get an "auth error". I recie
[02:12] <groceryheist> i get errors 17, 18, and sometimes 16 from gub
[02:12] <SiON42X> army12bc: You mean overwrite your Vista?  When you install Ubuntu you can just erase the Vista partition.
[02:12] <giorgio> not wireless, but wired
[02:12] <giorgio> i'm XUBUNTU
[02:12] <army12bc> l don't want to loose what i have done to ubuntu inside bista tho
[02:12] <SiON42X> groceryheist: You can use a live cd to rewrite the MBR.  Can't remember how though.
[02:12] <redvamp128> cougar what is your nvidia problem?
[02:12] <alanbshepard70> Crud I forgot to add my question. How do I fix the above error?
[02:12] <army12bc> vista*
[02:12] <scunizi> groceryheist, you could boot the live cd, mount both drives, copy what you need to the ubuntu drive then reinstall grub to the drive you want.. or just do the grub thing and boot to do what you need.
[02:12] <SiON42X> army12bc: Oh, you want to turn your VM into a real machine?  Don't know that you can do that easily.
[02:12] <groceryheist> ya
[02:13] <army12bc> yes
[02:13] <groceryheist> grub> setup (hd1,0)
[02:13] <cougar_> hello can anyone help me with X, and Nvidia card?
[02:13] <groceryheist> already tried that
[02:13] <groceryheist> did not work
[02:13] <redvamp128> cougar go ahead and ask
[02:13] <army12bc> cougar what u need
[02:13] <army12bc> i just did it
[02:13] <||ChAoS||> anyone have time to help witha  soundcard configuration issue?.. cant gt sound out of my card that is detected.
[02:13] <groceryheist> i tried editing fstab
[02:13] <groceryheist> but i don't know if i did it right
[02:13] <scunizi> groceryheist, the link from ubbotu previously will help setup grub..  maybe you should set grub to hd0,0  ... grub can be in many locations at the same time.. doesn't hurt..
[02:13] <jjdiamond> i have 2 computers on my network one with windows vista ultimate and the other with ubuntu.  i'm trying to figure out how to view a shared folder on the vista machine via the ubuntu machine
[02:14] <redvamp128> Most common issues for that one are --- no Nvidia control panel or How do I overclock.. but what other problems do you have?
[02:14] <cougar_> i have a 9600 and for some reason X won't keep my settings, i.e two screens
[02:14] <army12bc> yes i had that prob with my 8 series
[02:14] <redvamp128> Do you have the nvidia control panel installed?
[02:14] <groceryheist> scunizi and SiON42X: i have put it on both hd1 and hd 0
[02:14] <SiON42X> jjdiamond: Download openfiler and make your life easier.  ;)
[02:14] <scunizi> groceryheist, were you trying to edit fstab to make grub work?  that's not the right way.
[02:14] <groceryheist> putting it on hd0 my have been what screwed it up
[02:14] <army12bc> envyg
[02:14] <jjdiamond> SiON42X thanks.
[02:14] <cougar_> yeah i have the latest drivers 177 i think
[02:15] <groceryheist> scunizi and SiON42X:  i edited fstab to try to mount my xp drive
[02:15] <army12bc> envyng cougar
[02:15] <redvamp128> but also the control panel with the nvidia label
[02:15] <army12bc> only way to fix
[02:15] <groceryheist> i don't have anything important on the ubuntu drive, but i have a few important docs on my xp drive
[02:15] <SiON42X> giorgio: Maybe this will help you:  http://icebreaker.wordpress.com/2007/11/03/wireless-ubuntu-710-love/
[02:15] <army12bc> !envyng cougar
[02:15] <army12bc> lol
[02:15] <giorgio> and on Application->sistem -> windows wireless drivers, i tried to installed with that applet, but that is asking me for a xxx.inf
[02:16] <cougar_> yeah i have that too, basically i save it to x conf file in the control panel but when i restart x it just goes back to a single screen...
[02:16] <army12bc> back up ur config
[02:16] <redvamp128> ? cougar? do you have the Nvidia control panel?
[02:16] <army12bc> in termical
[02:16] <cougar_> yeah i do...
[02:16] <army12bc> terminal*
[02:16] <groceryheist> i added this line to fstab:        /dev/sda1 /media/The Almighty ntfs-3g force 0 0        The Almighty is the name of the drive
[02:17] <scunizi> groceryheist, you need to say.. 'The Almighty' .. with the little ticks around it..
[02:17] <groceryheist> ok
[02:17] <scunizi> groceryheist, linux handles spaces differently
[02:17] <SiON42X> groceryheist: Bad spaces!  Bad!
[02:17] <alanbshepard70> I was out of town for about 5 months and in that time I managed to forget my Ubuntu password. Is there any way to fix this? Can I just use a live CD to mount my old filesystem, copy off my personal files and then just install the latest version of Ubuntu and remember the pass this time?
[02:17] <army12bc>  sudo cp /etc/X11/xorg.conf /etc/X11/xorg.conf_BACKUP cougar
[02:17] <Flannel> groceryheist: or The\ Almighty
[02:17] <groceryheist> scunizi and SiON42X: it says the line is bad
[02:18] <Flannel> alanbshepard70: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/LostPassword
[02:18] <scunizi> groceryheist, also did you create a directory in /media called The Almighty?.. if not you'll need to do that as well.
[02:18] <jjdiamond> SiON42X where can i find openfiler?
[02:18] <Flannel> alanbshepard70: nothing that drastic needed, you can just reset your password
[02:18] <cougar_> ok thats done
[02:18] <groceryheist> scunizi: oh
[02:18] <groceryheist> scunizi and SiON42X: 1 sec
[02:18] <SiON42X> jjdiamond: openfiler.com.  It's an open source solution that allows you to set up network shares.
[02:18] <jjdiamond> found it
[02:18] <jjdiamond> thanks
[02:19] <systm> I have mounted a windows share, and I have my Tmo G1 connected via SSh to the box with said share, where is this share located in the FS (in terms, where is it mounted to?)
[02:19] <alanbshepard70> Flannel: Thanks, you're a lifesaver. I thought Ubuntu would make it darn near impossible to get to my files since Linux users are very security aware.
[02:20] <Flannel> alanbshepard70: physical access is always a weak point.  And there's really very few ways of securing against it.  (you can always do what you just said, boot a liveCD and copy off files, etc)
[02:20] <tpw_rules> hi!
[02:21] <wesent> boa noite
[02:21] <Atomic_UE> i get not tab completion after typing 'sudo ' in a shell. I used to but no more
[02:21] <wesent> carissimos.
[02:21] <jjdiamond> i didn't know there was an ubuntu ultimate OS.  i think i'll get used to plain ubuntu before trying out ultimate.
[02:22] <wesent> Brasileiros no canal#?
[02:22] <||ChAoS||> anyone around that can help with my sound card problem?
[02:22] <ASTURIAS> I downloaded Ubuntu 8.04 Live CD and when I try to install it and it is loading it stops and nothing else happens. Is there a way to install it from the using the existing Operating System Ubuntu 7.04 and inserting the disc?
[02:22] <alanbshepard70> Flannel:  Oh I see. I think in that case I'll reset my pass, wait for 8.10 to come out and then use LUKS to make physical access less risky. Of course I could up forgetting my pass again and end up in a bad way. lol. Thanks again for the help.
[02:23] <haydn> Can anyone help me find a way to make my panels Glass.
[02:23] <Flannel> alanbshepard70: Do you regularly have strangers walking around your tower?  changing BIOS stuff to not boot from media and/or locking your doors might be a better choice.  Certainly less troublesome (requiring a password to just boot)
[02:23] <legend2440> Atomic_UE: http://ubuntu.wordpress.com/2006/01/28/turn-on-bash-smart-completion/
[02:23] <haydn> The transparency trick is growing old
[02:24] <Atomic_UE> haydn, as far as i'm aware you can't, unless you use compiz and transparency, but that will make your entire panel see through, including icons/buttons etc, not just the panel background
[02:24] <ASTURIAS> I downloaded Ubuntu 8.04 Live CD and when I try to install it and it is loading it stops and nothing else happens. I'm installing in on an Acer AMD 64.
[02:25] <Atomic_UE> ASTURIAS, try selecting Safe Mode from the menu
[02:25] <systm> wow, there are a lot of people here, its kinda funny watching them all scroll by on my G1
[02:25] <flamedryad> hi
[02:25] <flamedryad> i needs help
[02:25] <ASTURIAS> Atomic_UE: I tried that and it is still stopping while loading
[02:25] <haydn> Atomic: http://screenlets.org/images/c/cf/69013-cap.jpg
[02:26] <Atomic_UE> ASTURIAS, then i'm not sure, sorry
[02:26] <giorgio> sion, i remove the network manager, but still wireless conection doesnt appear on the network setting window
[02:26] <systm_moto> ok, done loading
[02:26] <flamedryad> ubuntu keeps logging me out
[02:26] <giorgio> sion?
[02:26] <cusquinho> haydn: too much windows for me :)
[02:26] <Atomic_UE> ASTURIAS, oh you could probably stick the cds in when you're booted into 7.10 and i beleive it has an autorun thing that'll ask if you want to upgrade your isntall?
[02:26] <ASTURIAS> Is there a way to upgrade Ubuntu 8.04 using the Live CD?
[02:26] <haydn> Yeah I know, I don't want the pearl just the transparency
[02:27] <alanbshepard70> Flannel:  I'm sure I could find a less painful to secure my comp with, LUKS just seemed like a sure fire solution.  If you don't mind can I ask you another question since you're being helpful and informative? I just traveled with my laptop for the first time and after failing to properly implement encfs + fuse due to time constraints and incomplete online directions I can no longer login to the Linux partition of my laptop.  Imediately after typing in my password ubuntu says authentication error and won't  even let me type my password to login. How do I fix it?
[02:28] <sshoc1> also, nm-tool shows: print_devices(): didn't get a reply from NetworkManager.  There are no available network devices.
[02:28] <rainbowinfinity> how come when I minimixe my windows they dissappear, not minimize to the bottom taskbar, and how can I fix it??
[02:28] <giorgio> SION, i did, but still, the wireless setting, doesnt appear in the network settings windows
[02:28] <SiON42X> giorgio: I'm sorry, not sure how to help you from here.
[02:29] <Flannel> alanbshepard70: No idea.  I've never dealt with encfs personally.  I'd try a liveCD and mounting it manually once youre in the OS, etc.
[02:29] <siavash_> how do i see what drivers are installed for my network adapter?
[02:29] <giorgio> thanks any way
[02:29] <kc8pxy> ok, i have too many devices in my sound area, and half of them are not working right.
[02:29] <sshoc1> I've been manually switching between networks with network-admin, but I'd like to start using NetworkManager
[02:29] <ASTURIAS> Is there a way to upgrade from Feisty (7.04) to Hardy Heron (8.04) using the Live CD since it stops while loading regardless that I select Sfe Graphics mode etc?
[02:29] <siavash_> is there  a way to see which drivers have been configured?
[02:30] <phaeton> no bitchx in ubuntu?
[02:30] <Flannel> phaeton: No, it's been removed because it's dangerous.
[02:30] <phaeton> Flannel: dangerous how?
[02:30] <Pici> phaeton: No. Its no longer supported upstream.
[02:30] <Flannel> phaeton: privledge escilation holes left wide open, etc.
[02:30] <phaeton> ic
[02:30] <Guest49853> set theme fear2
[02:30] <phaeton> hmm
[02:31] <Pici> phaeton: irssi is still in the repositories  though
[02:31] <alanbshepard70> Flannel: Ok I'll give that a shot. Maybe my two screw-ups are good excuses to go through the effort of installing 8.10 and getting a fresh start. You've been a big help, I certainly appreciate it.
[02:31] <flamedryad> any help please
[02:31] <phaeton> Pici: thx
[02:31] <siavash_> what's up with network manager in intrepid?
[02:32] <Pici> siavash_: #ubuntu+1 for intrepid questions please.
[02:32] <siavash_> i had to deactivate it and use ifup/down now
[02:32] <siavash_> pici: thx
[02:32]  * phaeton is new to this whole ubuntu thing
[02:32] <systm> where do i get smbmount
[02:32] <rainbowinfinity> any ideas anyone??? it used to work just fine, but my kids were messing with the computer, and now when I minimize screens they dissappear

[02:39] <danbh_intrepid> ASTURIAS: have you tried the 32bit version?
[02:39] <systm> thanks scunizi
[02:39] <ASTURIAS> danbh_intrepid: No
[02:40] <scunizi> tarelerulz1, go to http://localhost:631   that's the interface for cups.. check and make sure it's set up correctly there..
[02:41] <Redeemed> ello?
[02:41] <ASTURIAS> Can I use a 32 bit version on a 64 bit?
[02:41] <Kudi> hi
[02:41] <Kudi> does anyone know how to make master volume the defaut
[02:42] <Redeemed> O.o (first time on IRC) and i've had Ultimate Edition 1.9 for a whole week how is everybody?
[02:42] <scunizi> ASTURIAS, you mean run 32 bit ubuntu on a 64 bit machine?  Yes.
[02:42] <danbh_intrepid> ASTURIAS: absolutely.  And I think the 32bit tends to have less bugs.  So, if its not too much trouble, I think its worth a shot
[02:42] <ASTURIAS> Ok, Thanks, I wil download it
[02:42] <Flannel> Redeemed: You shouldn't use the "ultimate edition", you should use a real version of Ubuntu
[02:42] <Redeemed> Really? whys thats?
[02:43] <Redeemed> i know windows inside and out but know jack about linux other than its fun!
[02:43] <siavash_> Linux is fun yay!
[02:44] <hansengel> Hi, recently for some unknown reason all of my media players stopped being able to output sound, except for Last.FM.
[02:44] <Flannel> Redeemed: well first off, the Ultimate edition isn't well supported, the second part is it has some things set up poorly and dangerously to your installs long term health.  You likely won't be able to successfully upgrade, etc.
[02:44] <hansengel> I've tried opening MOVs with VLC - no sound. Also MP3s with VLC and Rhythmbox aren't working.
[02:44] <hansengel> But Last.fm works fine.
[02:44] <sshoc1> ok, I deleted all the interfaces in my /etc/network/interfaces; now I am getting somewhere...
[02:44] <flamedryad> ubuntu keeps logging me out suddenly
[02:44] <jjdiamond> is there a media player that supports .shn files?
[02:45] <hansengel> I already tried reinstalling all of the GStreamer packages, and VLC too.. no change
[02:45] <hansengel> Can anyone help here?
[02:45] <hansengel> (Flash in my browser can also output sound, now that I think about it.)
[02:45] <Redeemed> what about the differnt verisions of unbuntu like...kunbuntu and such?
[02:45] <Redeemed> are thoes guys bad ideas too?
[02:46] <scunizi> Redeemed, any of the downloads that are available at ubuntu.com are ok.. the other are let up to experience.
[02:46] <Flannel> Redeemed: Xubuntu, Kubuntu, Edubuntu, Mythbuntu, and Ubuntu are all a-ok.
[02:46] <cougar_> hello can anyone help me with X, and Nvidia card?
[02:46] <sshock> now I've got networks showing up in nm-tool, and when I left click on the nm-applet icon; however, still nothing shows up when I right-click on it and go to Edit wireless networks
[02:46] <Slack> how do i copy a file from my desktop to /var/www as root

[02:47] <t35t0r> sudo cp ~/Desktop/someFile /var/www/
[02:47] <bobbob1016> For some reason, firefox only starts in full screen mode.  It isn't actually full screen though, since I can still enable full screen mode.  Any ideas?
[02:47] <Flannel> Slack: a better way to do it is: sudo -u www-data ~/path/to/myfile /var/www/whatever
[02:48] <army12bc> f11 i think bobob
[02:48] <Redeemed> also...i got all these funky dash marks on my screen any ideas why that has happened??
[02:48] <skky> anyone know of a good app to capture/record audio output on my laptop?
[02:49] <jjdiamond> any media players with .shn and .flac support?
[02:49] <scunizi> skky, audacity
[02:49] <Wobert> anyone inhere that can tell me what ^@ means in a faillog ?
[02:49] <jjdiamond> it would be nice if winamp was open source
[02:49] <Redeemed> lol
[02:50] <fr500> hey
[02:50] <MrException> jjdiamond: see http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=600781 for shn files
[02:50] <lu31415> ati hd2400 driver problems, can anyone help?
[02:50] <Redeemed> i like itunes more than winamp
[02:50] <fr500> does ubuntu use GPUs as nvidia cards to decode video?
[02:50] <fr500> I mean is it possible?
[02:50] <jjdiamond> itunes is awful
[02:50] <Redeemed> is it?
[02:50] <Redeemed> i like all the podcast
[02:50] <Commie_Cary> whats the point of running firefox under wine rather then the native port
[02:50] <jjdiamond> MrException thanks.
[02:51] <skky> thanks scunizi
[02:51] <hansengel> Commie_Cary: Some plugins are Windows-only
[02:51] <scunizi> skky, np :)
[02:51] <hansengel> Commie_Cary: Other than that, no idea why it would be done :P
[02:51] <Commie_Cary> hansengel, but there are VERY few.
[02:51] <flamedryad> ubuntu keeps logging me out suddenly
[02:51] <CarlFK> what is the repo's I can get vmware from?
[02:51] <bobbob1016> fr500, It is possible, I think you need to use gl or something.  As in I use my nvidia card for decoding on my mythbuntu PC by putting "-vo -gl" in my mplayer line
[02:51] <MrException> jjdiamond: and most things should be able to play flac, mplayer for sure, also check out audacious if you want something that acts like winamp
[02:51] <flamedryad> pleade help
[02:51] <fr500> i see, thanks bobbob1016
[02:52] <scunizi> CarlFK, if you want vmware get it directly from vmware.. It'll be up to date
[02:52] <Redeemed> so nobody has any ideas about the dash marks all over my screen?
[02:52] <flamedryad> i know it a software issue
[02:52] <hansengel> CarlFK: Don't think it's on a repo.. copyrights prevent that. Check out http://vware.com
[02:52] <hansengel> vmware.com, sorry
[02:52] <jjdiamond> cool
[02:52] <bobbob1016> fr500, I'm pretty sure it'd work for all video cards though
[02:52]  * rocknlnx I jave a file I downloaded called GalleryRemote.1.5.Linux.VM.bin Can someone please give mt the terminal sytaax to install it on to my system?
[02:52] <scunizi> hansengel, vmware player is in the repos. but most need server
[02:52] <rocknlnx> have
[02:52] <Commie_Cary> hansengel, heck, there isnt a linux port, theres a windows port ;)
[02:52] <dsmith_> lol
[02:52] <scunizi> CarlFK, you should also look at virtualbox..
[02:52] <CarlFK> vmware-player is what I am looking for, but can't figure out what repo it is in
[02:53] <hansengel> rocknlnx: Probably `sh GalleryRemote.1.5.Linux.VM.bin`
[02:53] <hansengel> CarlFK: There's a .rpm that installs that package on VMWare's site
[02:53] <CarlFK> hansengel: there is a repo somewhere - either ubuntu, vmware or maybe a helpful  person - been over a year sense I used it
[02:54] <CarlFK> I nomally use qemu, but trying to help someone out with running ubuntu in vmware, so I need to use vmware :)
[02:54] <hansengel> CarlFK: Why not just download it from the site so you don't have to search for a repo?
[02:54] <scunizi> hansengel, CarlFK .rpm's you don't want to install on a .deb system.. get the tar and install it .. it will compile itself
[02:54] <hansengel> scunizi: I downloaded the .rpm and used Alien to convert to .deb
[02:54] <CarlFK> scunizi: compile.. that's so 1900's :)
[02:55] <hansengel> haha
[02:55] <Flynsarmy> I downloaded OOo_3.0.0_LinuxIntel_install_en-US_deb.tar.gz. How do i install it? there is an update script but when i run it i just get lines of 'Skipping deselected package <package>'
[02:55] <rocknlnx> hansengel: no tha did not do anything
[02:55] <oly562> shellow
[02:55] <oly562> gotta a question for people that know VMing
[02:55] <hansengel> rocknlnx: Okay then, if that didn't work you'll have to check out the README or INSTALL file
[02:55] <scunizi> hansengel, that's not recomended.......  CarlFK no.. if you want it .. it's sudo ./vmware-install.pl or something and it looks for the compiler and does it automatically.. not like a self compiled program..
[02:56] <rocknlnx> unfortunatly there isn't any
[02:56] <Gnea> oly562: ask anyway, might be able to help ya
[02:56] <tarelerulz1> scunizi, I try the http://localhost631 and changed the driver

[02:57] <tarelerulz1> I try resetting the driver and it just don't do anything
[02:57] <csilk> reset the driver?
[02:57] <scunizi> tarelerulz1, how is it connected.. lpt cable or usb?
[02:57] <tarelerulz1> USB
[02:58] <scunizi> tarelerulz1, have you checked HP's site for their linux driver?
[02:58]  * rocknlnx okay how about this one. I want to use terminal to find all jpeg files on my pc (internal drives/external drives and then I want to move all of those files into a new directory on my deskyop???
[02:58] <trumpetmic> so is mediabuntu the best way to go if I want to use this computer for my media center, watching tv, listening to music, browsing the web, etc..?
[02:58] <oly562> what is a good software that i can load on ubuntu or linux in general, say centos or suse, that i can connect to via the net and open virtual machines. i have virtualbox running on a few diff servers, but it appears that the nat issue is not going to let me do what i want. at least from what im reading... so with out question, what open vm solution should i use to run multiple vm's based on an IP:PORT combo, so that if i have one lap t
[02:58] <scunizi> trumpetmic, it's one way
[02:59] <oly562> ubuntu = debian lol i dont get this whole nelson mendella bit lol
[02:59] <scunizi> oly562, vmware server ,,, also virtualbox.. but vmware might be easier
[02:59] <trumpetmic> scunizi: is there a better way?
[02:59] <oly562> whatever happened to the little beer swilling tux lol
[02:59] <Flynsarmy> on ubuntu what is the path to the openoffice installation? /etc/openoffice ?
[02:59] <oly562> vmware costs money? right
[03:00] <Flannel> oly562: #ubuntu-offtopic would be the place to go for non Ubuntu support questions
[03:00] <oly562> or will can i hack a solution
[03:00] <Chris_Britton> Flynsarmy, you asked in the OO channel how to install it
[03:00] <oly562> ill ignore that you said that flannel
[03:00] <scunizi> trumpetmic, mythTV is another but that is not a distro.. google is your friend here.. also check out www.ubuntuforums.org
[03:00] <Chris_Britton> Flynsarmy, did you figure it out
[03:00] <trumpetmic> thanks scunizi
[03:00]  * trumpetmic goes off to find ways of having fun with ubuntu
[03:00] <Flynsarmy> Chris_Britton, I asked on the OO channel and noone responded
[03:01] <Chris_Britton> Flynsarmy, you unpack the program by typing: tar xvf <packagename>
[03:01] <scunizi> oly562, vmware server is free to download and use.. you need a license to activate.. they provide that for free too.  there are two versions 1.x.x and 2.x beta.. you can read about them on vmware.com
[03:01] <Flannel> oly562: Please respect our channel guidelines

[03:01] <Chris_Britton> Flynsarmy, did you do that ?
[03:02] <Flynsarmy> Chris_Britton, It's already unpacked. there is an update script. it says to type ./update <path to oo installation> i dunno what that path is. is it /etc/openoffice?
[03:02] <Chris_Britton> Flynsarmy, I've not heard anything, anywhere about an update script
[03:02] <CarlFK> https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-users/2006-June/084275.html looks like it used to be in the ubuntu repo, but isn't any more?
[03:02] <oly562> ic,, i can goto vmware.com and they have a universal to run on ubuntu... i would image
[03:02] <scunizi> yep
[03:02] <oly562> i thought vmware.com stuff costs money lol
[03:02] <Chris_Britton> Flynsarmy, you may have downloaded a package that contains malicious code - did it come from a .cz or .cn ?
[03:02] <oly562> good to know
[03:03] <okidogi> hi, I have problem with fetchmail. I run the fetchmail and it seems working correctly, but I cannot find the copy under /var/mail/.  http://pastebin.com/m25902793
[03:03] <Flynsarmy> Chris_Britton, It's just a bunch of .deb files, a file called 'update' some licences and a readme which doesnt tell you how to isntall it. Chris_Britton I got it from my ISPs file mirror. it's not malicious
[03:03] <oly562> i been using virtual box on ubuntu, and its easy and all, but,,, ya know i can't open multiple vm's to this laptop running linux
[03:03] <oly562> hmm
[03:03] <Chris_Britton> Flynsarmy, type: locate openoffice.org | more
[03:03] <oly562> about the tap interfacing on ubuntu
[03:03] <csilk> Flynsarmy, please follow the link I pasted, it gives short and easy to understand instructions
[03:03] <okidogi> Can somebody help me... :(
[03:03] <Chris_Britton> Flynsarmy, that should show you where OO is installed
[03:03] <Flannel> Flynsarmy: OOo 3 installs to /opt/
[03:04] <oly562> im used to centos of late... i believe i saw something on ubunto 6.0 manual about that
[03:05] <Ony1> hello
[03:06] <Ony1> sheesh, took a long time to update update manager
[03:08] <rainbowinfinity> now i can't eject the installation disk...it says it can't unmount the volume because an application is preventing it...but there's nothing running at all except chat
[03:09] <Flynsarmy> csilk, That link has RPM and mac stuff on it. Flannel there is nothing in my /opt directory when i did a ls -a. Chris_Britton most of what was returned was /home/user/.openoffice.org
[03:09] <scunizi> rainbowinfinity, hit enter
[03:09] <csilk> Flynsarmy, that tutorial will work for ubuntu
[03:09] <Flannel> Flynsarmy: Do you still have the debs?  Do this: dpkg -L packagename
[03:09] <danbh_intrepid> Flynsarmy: its easier to get OO 3 on intrepid
[03:09] <Flannel> Flynsarmy: but, OOo has a deb (its actually a tarball of debs, like 30 of them)
[03:10] <Chris_Britton> Flynsarmy, /home/user is only the place for configurations - it doesn't usually contain any binaries

[03:28] <rainbowinfinity> no...i mean what if i can't understand the techno lingo....i'm trying so hard to make ubuntu work for me because i hate windows, but i'm a totally point & click type person???
[03:28] <wartalker> Tardis: envyng
[03:28] <Flannel> rainbowinfinity: point and click is fine.  What specifically are you having trouble with?
[03:28] <angel12-eee> the9a3eedi: use gtkparted to see what partition is your swap
[03:28] <Datz> Hello, I'm not sure quite what to do.  I installed ubuntu on an old P3 machine.  Everything seemed ok for awhile, but then the network card started to work sporadically, then just quit.  Since it was an old network card, I just ordered a new one.  Installed it, it worked for maybe 12 hours without any problem, then just stopped working same as the last one.
[03:28] <abstortedminds> i decided to resize my ubuntu partion to be moved to the left and let it grow from 27.95GB to 228GB, however since sda2 (my old mac partition was deleted) it seems that i do not have choice when booting up anymore
[03:28] <kapace> groceryheist, mtfs?
[03:29] <groceryheist> ntfs
[03:29] <kapace> ok, do you know if you have to escape that space?
[03:29] <groceryheist> paste.ubuntu.com/63103
[03:29] <angel12-eee> Tardis: you need to kill x and install via the command line for the nvidia released packages. its easier/ better to use the ubuntu prebuilt packages IMO
[03:29] <Flannel> rainbowinfinity: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation#Standard%20installation those are four steps (just the first section) to install.  Once installed, https://help.ubuntu.com/ walks you through most of the regular-ish tasks, and we have lots of pages for other stuff too, you just have to ask here and we'll be ableto direct you.
[03:29] <rainbowinfinity> i just feel like i've lost a lot of functionality that i used to have...half my websites i can't go on because of flash, java or directx problems, and my kids are screaming to get vista back

[03:30] <groceryheist> kspace: I don't know if i escape the space
[03:30] <groceryheist> kspace: i did not try it

[03:30] <the9a3eedi> angel12-eee: I already have /dev/ps3da2 (I'm on a PS3) mounted as swap. I have an external hard disk connected, and one of its partitons is a swap partition.. and I'm trying to mount that as a second swap partition. But for some reason it's giving me an error
[03:30] <kapace> groceryheist, ok you might need to do that
[03:30] <abstortedminds> groceryheist, is this a grub issue:?  i decided to resize my ubuntu partion to be moved to the left and let it grow from 27.95GB to 228GB, however since sda2 (my old mac partition was deleted) it seems that i do not have choice when booting up anymore
[03:30] <scunizi> rainbowinfinity, threre isn't anything to do about direct x.. java is in the repo's and installable from synaptic as is flash-nonfree
[03:31] <kapace> or to avoid confusion, don't use space in folder name
[03:31] <kapace> groceryheist, in grub, tab autocomplete root (hd0,
[03:31] <Tardis> ok, thanks... i will try it :)
[03:31] <angel12-eee> the9a3eedi: what error is it giving you exactly? and ive never heard of mounting two swap partitions at once...
[03:31] <angel12-eee> the9a3eedi: and it wont help performance much if its an external drive
[03:32] <scunizi> the9a3eedi, you'll have nothing but problems with 2 swaps.. only use one..
[03:32] <groceryheist> kspace: abstortedminds: there are some grub aspects to this i issue, i should probably let you know that i put grub on hdo (my xp drive) and hd1 (ubuntu)
[03:32] <scientus> why does ifconfig run over at 4GB?
[03:32] <scientus> thats ahrdy much of a measurment
[03:32] <damron> hey guys... i had to compile and install alsa to get audio working properly on my laptop, but doing so has made speedstep not work on my laptop, i'm new to irc and dont know where to go so if someone could point me in the right direction
[03:32] <kapace> groceryheist, waht did you get when you autocompleted root (hd0,
[03:33] <LoCusF> I recently upgraded to Kubuntu Intrepid Ibex (last friday) and created another session like always to :1, now my mouse doesn't work at :1 but it does work at :0, what could be wrong?
[03:33] <waan> Is it ok to disable the gdm service without affecting anything else? I'd prefer to log-in via console
[03:33] <Flannel> LoCusF: #ubuntu+1 for Intrepid questions
[03:33] <Flannel> waan: Yep
[03:33] <the9a3eedi> angel12-eee: ah no.. can't explain, but basically the PS3 hard disk is pretty slow, so I was thinking to help make performance slightly better by mounting an external hard disk that's faster
[03:33] <waan> Flannel: thanks
[03:33] <rainbowinfinity> how can i tell if i have a firewall installed??
[03:33] <Flannel> !firewall | rainbowinfinity
[03:33] <waan> Flannel: It just warned my of "data loss" or something when I disabled it. Kind of silly
[03:33] <rainbowinfinity> thank you
[03:33] <angel12-eee> the9a3eedi: its only as fast as the usb controller, which is slow compared to an internal drive period
[03:33] <Flannel> waan: There's no data loss for disabling gdm... unless "disabling" means something unusual.
[03:34] <kapace> groceryheist, do you know how to autocomplete in grub?
[03:34] <the9a3eedi> angel12-eee. Well, I'd like to try and see for myself
[03:34] <the9a3eedi> angel12-eee: anyway the error is: "swapon: /dev/sdc4: Invalid argument"
[03:34] <angel12-eee> the9a3eedi: like i said
[03:34] <angel12-eee> it will be slow
[03:34] <groceryheist> ok i think i got sudo mount to work
[03:34] <ksakjas> when i do lsusb i see Bus 002 Device 002: ID 041e:401d Creative Technology, Ltd WebCam NX Ultra but i have no /dev/video0 is there suppose to be a /dev/video0
[03:35] <groceryheist> forced mount reset logfile
[03:35] <groceryheist> let me see if i can get on it now
[03:35] <ksakjas> wait there is nvm
[03:35] <the9a3eedi> angel12-eee: ok, say it was an e-sata hard disk. I still want to mount it as swap
[03:35] <senlis> hey, if I can change my screen resolution to 1680 x 1050 and set visual effects to high, does that mean my NVidia drivers are installed correctly?
[03:36] <scunizi> yep
[03:36] <groceryheist> kspace: nope, the directory is gone now
[03:36] <senlis> tnx, too bad I can't seem to get cedega to work very well
[03:36] <ksakjas> i have vlc runing on my ubuntu box, i want to take teh webcam stream coming from /dev/video0 and push it to computer <IP_ADDRESS> on my network. how do i do this, thanks for any assistance
[03:36] <kapace> groceryheist, which directory?
[03:36] <angel12-eee> the9a3eedi: try google
[03:36] <groceryheist> the directory to my xp drive
[03:37] <LoCusF> Flannel: ok
[03:37] <groceryheist> should i try grub auto complete now?
[03:37] <ksakjas> also this must be command line if possible
[03:37] <kapace> hmm
[03:37] <kapace> yes try that
[03:37] <groceryheist> ok
[03:37] <Kattollikisd> someone here tried so run this game "Crysis" on WINE?
[03:37] <the9a3eedi> angel12-eee: hmm.. might as well..
[03:37] <kapace> lets just see what you have there
[03:37] <kapace> or what grub thinks is there
[03:37] <joaquinm> Kattollikisd: i doubt cyris could run on wine
[03:37] <waan> Flannel: so is gdm just a wrapper for xorg with a visual login or something?
[03:38] <groceryheist> kspace: what was the command syntax again?
[03:38] <abstortedminds> is it ok to have sda1, sda3, sd4  ?  (with no sda2)
[03:38] <Flannel> waan: Sort of, yeah.  gdm is the login screen.  By disabling it, you disable the login screen (and then X never starts)
[03:38] <ksakjas> i have vlc runing on my ubuntu box, i want to take teh webcam stream coming from /dev/video0 and push it to computer <IP_ADDRESS> on my network. how do i do this, thanks for any assistance. also this must be done by command line
[03:38] <Flannel> waan: so you'd do it manually afterwards, etc.
[03:38] <kapace> groceryheist, first get into grub by typing grub in terminal
[03:38] <groceryheist> im in there
[03:38] <kapace> then type in root(hd0,
[03:38] <kapace> then tab
[03:38] <kapace> ok
[03:38] <joaquinm> actually
[03:38] <scunizi> kapace, isn't it sudo grub?
[03:39] <joaquinm> yes it seems to run in wine, allways check the wine site
[03:39] <groceryheist> tab isnt working
[03:39] <kapace> works with out sudo for me.. but yea sudo grub
[03:39] <joaquinm> http://appdb.winehq.org/objectManager.php?sClass=version&iId=10107
[03:39] <groceryheist> im in sudo grub
[03:39] <rainbowinfinity> has anyone here tried to play games on pogo.com and been successful??
[03:39] <_daqing> where's ubuntu's default desktop wallpaper?
[03:39] <senlis> does pogo.com use flash for it's games?
[03:39] <kapace> hmm
[03:39] <rainbowinfinity> java
[03:39] <senlis> then in theory it should work
[03:40] <rainbowinfinity> keep getting errors saying it can't connect to server
[03:40] <senlis> after all, java is multiplatform
[03:40] <groceryheist> tab is not doing what it is supposed to
[03:40] <_daqing> i cannot find it in Nautilus
[03:40] <Guest49853> set theme fear2.theme
[03:40] <waan> Flannel: which leads me to another question, is there a reason tty1 is reserved?
[03:40] <kapace> groceryheist, ok, open up gparted
[03:40] <Flannel> waan: It's not reserved.  Or, shouldn't be.
[03:40] <senlis> @ rainbowinfinity, I don't know about that
[03:40] <kapace> or try root (hd1, *tab*
[03:40] <Guest49853> set theme fear2
[03:40] <genefitz> _daqing: right click on the desktop. Choose "change background" then it will bring up the choices. One of them wioll be the original desktop
[03:41] <Flannel> waan: Could have something to do with your dmesg output, but traditionally that's on tty2, might have changed I guess.  But I'm not aware of it"reserving" that tty
[03:41] <the9a3eedi> angel12-eee: found out the problem. I should've mkswap'd the partition first
[03:41] <senlis> @rainbowinfinity, I'll try pogo.com real quick and see what happens
[03:41] <groceryheist> ok
[03:41] <rainbowinfinity> cool...thx
[03:41] <groceryheist> it is scanning devices
[03:41] <kapace> k
[03:41] <waan> Flannel: It was just never available for me to use, always had to use tty2. Maybe I should reboot after disabling gdm
[03:42] <_daqing> genefitz: I know how to change the background, i want to know the file path of the origin desktop image
[03:42] <sleven> i tried again to make a script executable from anywhere so i did:
[03:42] <groceryheist> unable to open /dev/hda read-write (read only file system) /dev/hda has been opened to read only
[03:42] <abstortedminds> after i use gparted to expand a partition do i need to do anything else? or should it work
[03:42] <groceryheist> same message for hdx and fd0
[03:42] <groceryheist> ok
[03:42] <sleven> sudo chmod +x /usr/local/bin/podgrabber.py
[03:42] <groceryheist> it sees The almighty mounted to /media
[03:42] <magikid> Is there a way to make ubuntu wait longer before dimming a window for being unresponsive?
[03:43] <groceryheist> in /dev/sda1
[03:43] <sleven> but it reads it and amd cant recognize the commands
[03:43] <sleven> so should i add something here: sudo chmod +x /usr/local/bin/podgrabber.py
[03:43] <groceryheist> ok
[03:43] <groceryheist> its loaded my harddisks
[03:43] <groceryheist> those error messages were for flash drives i have plugged
[03:43] <senlis> @rainbowinfinity I tried to load it, but it says I haven't installed java (which I haven't)
[03:44] <senlis> @rainbowinfinity I need to install java anyway, so give me a sec
[03:44] <uofm49426> hey trying to install ubuntu on my desktop why do i get ata4.00 error
[03:44] <senlis> btw, how do I wisper to people in irc?

[03:46] <groceryheist> kspace: what now?
[03:46] <kapace> hmm
[03:47] <tarelerulz1> scunizi , thanks a lot for your help.  Most the time I come into here it is just to answer stuff I am playing with.  This time I need to print out  google map direction to a place I need to go . Your life saver .
[03:47] <kapace> im kinda busy right now
[03:47] <groceryheist> ok
[03:47] <kapace> uh, is your xp partition were it should be?
[03:47] <kapace> like hd0?
[03:47] <lu31415> ...anyone can help with ati hd2400 driver problems in hardy heron?
[03:48] <scunizi> tarelerulz1, did they have a driver that worked?
[03:49] <groceryheist> i don't know
[03:49] <groceryheist> let me check grub
[03:49] <groceryheist> it looks ok from gparted though
[03:49] <kapace> no in gparted, is there a ntfs partition in hd 0?
[03:49] <kapace> oh ok
[03:50] <hellhound> how can I rename my Windows Partition under places from "60.0 GB Media" to "WinBlows"
[03:50] <tarelerulz1> They did not have the driver ,but they had link to a site that had the driver and auto installer script .  I did not think  drivers for  Linux could be as easy as it is for windows.  Get goes to show Linux is better and better every.  Great job to the Ubuntu people .
[03:50] <genefitz> _daqing: usr/share/backgrounds
[03:50] <scunizi> tarelerulz1, I'm glad it was an HP and not a lexmark..
[03:50] <andresmh> is there a utility to do zooming like the Enhanced Zoom Desktop that comes with Compiz but that doesn't need Compiz? That's the only thing I need from Compiz....
[03:51] <groceryheist> grub cannot find /boot/grub
[03:51] <tarelerulz1> scunizi:  I am too.  I thought as it is a lot of the time when you are trying something new . I thought it would be hours of chatting and googling stuff.  My Dad was like it don't work  because your using Linux.  I got to show him up haha
[03:51] <sleven> so should i add something here: sudo chmod +x /usr/local/bin/podgrabber.py
[03:52] <kapace> groceryheist, can you find /boot/grub?
[03:52] <kapace> you might need to install it
[03:52] <scunizi> tarelerulz1, I'm probably your dad's age so old dogs can learn new tricks.. :)
[03:52] <groceryheist> no
[03:52] <lu31415> hmm, just checking - can anyone read me? not sure if my irc connection is ok...
[03:52] <groceryheist> kspace: error 15 file not found
[03:53] <groceryheist> lu31415 you r good
[03:53] <scunizi> lu31415, did you say something?
[03:53] <kc8pxy> lu31415: good to go
[03:53] <lu31415> groceryheist: thanks :)
[03:54] <tarelerulz1> I scunizi I all most thought the same thing .  I really did see hours of research. I mean I did not see myself fixing it  anytime soon.  The game was on the line and I got it working . I would love to thank they guy who wrote the driver and the other guy for making such a nice installer.
[03:54] <hellhound> how can I rename my Windows Partition under places from "60.0 GB Media" to "WinBlows"
[03:55] <scunizi> tarelerulz1, and the adventure continues.. welcome to linux land.
[03:55] <kapace> groceryheist, try http://www.howtogeek.com/howto/ubuntu/reinstall-ubuntu-grub-bootloader-after-windows-wipes-it-out/
[03:55] <tjab_> hello. :) does anyone know if Acronis Trueimage files (.tib) can be mounted and read on linux?
[03:56] <groceryheist> ok
[03:56] <groceryheist> i just remounted my ubuntu drive
[03:56] <groceryheist> changed it from media to /
[03:56] <waan> Flannel: yeah it seems dmesg just hogs tty1 on boot, so I have to switch to tty2 to log-in
[03:56] <groceryheist> i think it worked
[03:57] <groceryheist> now i will reinstall grub
[03:57] <tarelerulz1> scunizi I am use to the adventure ,but not when I really need it to work.  I broke vista and the hotel computer is down and the front desk women need her computer for an hour .  All I had to help me was you guys .
[03:57] <kapace> groceryheist, why was it mounted to /media??
[03:58] <Kattma1> I need to use apt-get to grab a bunch of dependencies , but save them to a empty folder for later use.
[03:58] <scunizi> tarelerulz1, always good to carry a live cd or live usb key for those situations.. ..
[03:58] <groceryheist> i don't know
[03:58] <groceryheist> well now grub does not see my drives
[03:58] <scunizi> Kattma1, check out apt-on-cd
[03:58] <groceryheist> so i cannot reinstall it
[03:59] <kapace> hmm
[03:59] <groceryheist> im going to see what happens when i reboot
[03:59] <kapace> k
[03:59] <kapace> you have livecd incase right?
[03:59] <groceryheist> ya
[03:59] <groceryheist> i have 2 computers
[03:59] <groceryheist> so im staying with you
[03:59] <kapace> ok
[04:00] <groceryheist> GRUB loading stage1.5.
[04:00] <groceryheist> GRUB loading, please wait
[04:00] <groceryheist> error 17
[04:00] <kapace> sounds good
[04:00] <kapace> oh ..
[04:00] <kapace> google?
[04:00] <r00tintheb0x> Good evening all.
[04:01] <groceryheist> hang on im going to try booting off my other drive
[04:01] <kapace> ok
[04:01] <groceryheist> grub loaded fine
[04:01] <kapace> try autocompleting there
[04:01] <groceryheist> ubuntu won't load, error 22 no such partitino
[04:02] <alanbshepard70> How do I use the Ubuntu recovery boot option if it's been deleted from my menu file? Is there something I can type in at boot time?
[04:02] <groceryheist> ok
[04:02] <tarelerulz1> scunizi , how would that help  to have live cd or usb key ? if you don't have the drivers you don't have them
[04:03] <groceryheist> it gives me partition num: o, filesystem type is ext2fs, partition type 0x83 and partition num: 4, filesystem type unknown, partition type 0x82
[04:03] <hellhound> How can I rename my Windows Partition under the PLACES from "60.0 GB Media" to "WinBlows"
[04:03] <kapace> ok, try those in your boot menu
[04:04] <kapace> or manually put in the commands
[04:04] <scunizi> tarelerulz1, You can make one with the drivers.. or just get them and load them in the live cd system.. however, I was thinking about being in a hotel with the computers down.. It's typically a software issue and booting to a live cd gives you almost everything you need.
[04:04] <groceryheist> like boot(hd0,0)
[04:04] <groceryheist> ?
[04:05] <groceryheist> it says kernel must be loaded before booting
[04:05] <kapace> well you need to put the commands in again
[04:05] <kapace> yea
[04:05] <kapace> or chainloader +1 etc
[04:05] <groceryheist> i don't know how to do that?
[04:05] <kapace> ok, your at grub prompt yes?
[04:05] <smm289> I have a network issue, think I might get some help in here, or is there a network specific room I can go to
[04:05] <groceryheist> yes
[04:06] <tarelerulz1> scunizi , that would have been cool to have the not booting windows computer running linux live cd .  Just leave it here and have someone find it and be like wow That made it work. I wonder what Linux is
[04:06] <kapace> look inside you menu boot.lst
[04:06] <kapace> *menu.lst
[04:06] <kapace> then put in the commands for the os you want to boot inside, with the updated values
[04:06] <pl4nkton> ai..
[04:06] <groceryheist> file not found
[04:06] <groceryheist> i did find boot/menu.lst
[04:06] <Pokoloko> Hello all
[04:07] <kapace> hmm
[04:07] <smm289> anyone like to tackle a port-forwarding issue.  Or point me to the proper room
[04:07] <waan> Is dmesg supposed to release tty1 after bootup? I've never been able to use tty1 to log-in
[04:07] <ksakjas> streaming to the network with vlc, anybody have any experince doing this?
[04:07] <waan> groceryheist: /boot/grub/menu.lst
[04:08] <e-frame> ksakjas: join #videolan
[04:08] <waan> groceryheist: use, locate menu.lst, to find files
[04:08] <ksakjas> e-frame: im in there but now one is beign active
[04:08] <e-frame> hmm
[04:09] <uglyfrog> hey, what do you guys use to download alot of rapidshare files in linux?  need a recommendation
[04:09] <waan> uglyfrog: what is rapidshare?
[04:09] <groceryheist> i did find /boot/grub/menu.lst
[04:09] <Pokoloko> I recently installed my dvb card and its says when i dmesg | grep -i dvb  that it is found in colod state and fw isnt found do you know in which location is should place the fw ?
[04:09] <groceryheist> it gave me hd0,0
[04:09] <spuopolo> ksakjas: did you try #vlc ?
[04:10] <groceryheist> i did setup hd0
[04:10] <groceryheist> it worked
[04:11] <hilton> Hello all. I am a Linux newb; Ubuntu was recommended to me for friendliness.... I'm having a few problems.
[04:11] <waan> uglyfrog: Can't you use your browser?
[04:11] <Tardis> anyone know any good ssh client that can save account info ?
[04:11] <hilton> I downloaded and installed the ubuntu ultimate 1.4 dvd.
[04:11] <hilton> Haven't changed anything other than adding a 2nd user, and a theme change.
[04:12] <hilton> During login (after entering my password) I get asked for another password - I think it asks for the root pass.
