[20:58] <ikonia> Dexikiix: come on please.
[20:58] <mesy4567> what's up lex?
[20:59] <gary4gar> Dexikiix, IRc nicks make no sense, mine is also random
[20:59] <mesy4567> ask the question lex, don't ask to ask
[20:59] <Gillpy_> SherlawkDragon: kill
[20:59] <kaiwen> dmi3on install envy, then run it, then follow the step by step instructions, that should make it work with the nvidia driver.
[20:59] <Dexikiix> ikonia: we don't have to be uptight professional tools in here...
[20:59] <dmi3on> kaiwen,  i tryed Envy didnt help :(
[20:59] <ikonia> !envy | kaiwen
[20:59] <gary4gar> Dexikiix, consider it as a 8bit string :P
[20:59] <mesy4567> envy isn't supported
[20:59] <kaiwen> thanks ikonia, now i feel like i'm in school again.
[20:59] <Dexikiix> lol ok gary4gar, i will
[20:59] <ikonia> Dexikiix: I don't appriciate the reference to a "tool" but you do have to stay on topic. Please try to keep it together

[20:59] <Gillpy_> SherlawkDragon: actually, there are many ways
[20:59] <lex> thanx mesy, i just installed gutstygibbon but cannot get any sound. what can i do?
[21:00] <trupheenix> kaiwen: ndiswrapper is the last option. this is such an old and widely used wireless card. i'm surprised it's not working on hardy. gutsy was working superb
[21:00] <dmi3on> kaiwen,  what is next option  ?
[21:00] <kaiwen> trupheenix actually do you know the mod name?
[21:00] <mesy4567> !wiki sound | lex

[21:00] <kaiwen> evne though it's not supported on this irc
[21:00] <dmi3on> kaiwen,  i tryed it two times it does not help
[21:00] <Dexikiix> kaiwen: can you help me with opera?
[21:00] <ikonia> dmi3on: envyng is the more supported option
[21:01] <kaiwen> let me do another paste.
[21:01] <Dexikiix> er wait i might not need it
[21:01] <dmi3on> kaiwen,  same think

[21:18] <kaiwen> dmi3on note, if you want compiz to run, you'll have to install the nvidia driver though.
[21:19] <kaiwen> dmi3on the one that nvidia provides.
[21:19] <idefix_> oh btw I also changed my CD player to a DVD burner
[21:19] <l337ingDisorder> lone: never heard of it, i'll google it
[21:19] <kaiwen> dmi3on this should help you if you decide to install it later on, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto/Nvidia

[21:23] <mesy4567> I couldn't fix it for the life of me
[21:23] <lone> l337ingDisorder: i had all kinds of trouble regarding this topic as well
[21:24] <lone> l337ingDisorder: but it worked through wpa supplicant
[21:24] <act1v8> mesy4567: Wait? Isn't that very bitchy. You know this whole "switch to ubuntu from fedora" stuff is making me go crazy. Have to kill Canonical.
[21:24] <dmi3on> kaiwen, mey be because i have connected two monitors on this card ?
[21:24] <kaiwen> dmi3on bingo
[21:24] <kaiwen> dmi3on try one
[21:24] <dmi3on> k
[21:24] <kaiwen> dmi3on, the reason is, for two monitors you need a different setup
[21:24] <kaiwen> dmi3on for your xorg.conf.
[21:25] <kaiwen> dmi3on you'll have to assign a certain "name" to each monitor in yoru xorg.conf"
[21:25] <mesy4567> act1v8, I wasn't being bitchy, ubuntu 8.1 seems to have a problem with nvidia cards
[21:25] <lex> i am tryin to to test sound. o help
[21:25] <lex> no help
[21:25] <kaiwen> dmi3on but to enable dual monitor support you'd need the nvidia driver here https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto/Nvidia
[21:25] <Kamus_H_Zwisch> Cocolite: tell me, why you tried to identify with my nickname?

[21:31] <Mark_vH> hi, i'm trying to setup ubuntu on a disk that had bad sectors, using the alternative cd. It refuses to do the partitioning
[21:31] <lex> switched them to alsa
[21:32] <lex> no sound
[21:32] <mesy4567> lex try all of them
[21:32] <Mark_vH> How can I install ubuntu on this disk (as dualboot with the already existing WinXP?)
[21:32] <RequinB41> !dualboot
[21:32] <lex> i did
[21:32] <akatsuki> hello.. when i boot..its taking like 10 seconds on this.. *loading hardware drivers    [    27.213505 ]   intel-rng:  FWH not detected..... so how can i delete this? is taking 10 seconds of my boot time and its not even detecting it! how i can solve this. i will really appreciate any help, thanks
[21:32] <RequinB41> !install
[21:32] <mesy4567> Mark_vh, you must partition the drive
[21:32] <idx> Mark_vH: You could always use Wubi if it really does refuse to partition.
[21:33] <taak> how come screen messes up my terminal colors and delete character?
[21:33] <mesy4567> !wubi | Mark_vH
[21:33] <idx> Mark_vH: Wubi does not partition but instead creates a virtual disk on your existing NTFS partition which you can boot into.
[21:34] <spuddys> Can anyone help me, Im having problems with apt-get
[21:34] <Mark_vH> but wubi will be slower right?
[21:34] <mesy4567> what's the problem spuddys?
[21:34] <spuddys> Mark_vH i installed over wubi not a problem
[21:34] <spuddys> Mesy can i PM?
[21:34] <mesy4567> sure
[21:34] <idx> Mark_vH: Not by much. I'm using it now. It uses swapfile instead of a swap partition, that is the main factor.

[21:36] <depeshe-node> I have a Compaq Presario C700 with an aetheros wireless card. I've already followed the suggestions on the ubuntu website to fix my problem, however, the madwifi distribution used is no longer there (the .tar file is empty).   I just compiled a new kernel, the current 2.26.2 but still my microfon on the T60(82801G (ICH7 Family) High Definition Audio) wont work. Can anybody help me a bit ?
[21:36] <nich^> Hi chaps :) I ran update manager on my work computer (7.04) to update to 7.10. Is there anyway I can finish updating it from home? I have a terminal connected to it via vpn, and looking at /var/log/dist-upgrade it looks like it's popped up a dialog box in gnome and I need to confirm a setting :)
[21:36] <RequinB41> !bluetooth
[21:36] <mehehool> 2 i have been trying to get my wireless working for 5 months now and i still dont have anything
[21:36] <ikonia> EugenMayer: custom kernels are not supported
[21:36] <cwill747> depeshe-node: so you already looked at the wifi docs?
[21:36] <imtotalcause>  Just installed HARDY HERON on my E-machine T1842. The CPU fan works during start up. Stops working once the desktop is loaded? Keep getting an emergency shutdown Chipset: Intel 845GL I have on onboard 3D INTEL EXTREME GRAPHICS  AGP
[21:37] <lordapex> what would be the best way to copy a whole partition? dd?
[21:37] <ikonia> lordapex: just the data, cp would do
[21:37] <Sylphid|work> mehehool, what wireless card is it?  lspci should show
[21:37] <cwill747> So i have a problem where when i turn off my computer, the hard drives stop spinning and everything, but the power never turns off. The screen is stuck on the shutdown screen with the loading bar empty
[21:38] <lordapex> ikonia: cp -rp ?
[21:38] <ikonia> lordapex: -x too
[21:38] <ikonia> lordapex: but if you want the physical partition, rather than the data, then dd as you rightly suggested is wise
[21:38] <idx> With an Intel 915G onboard 128mb graphics adapter, all OpenGL programs (e.g. Google Earth) appear in the foreground always, even if hidden by non-graphical elements or other applications. Any ideas?

[21:39] <lordapex> ikonia: no the data was what i wanted
[21:39] <mehehool> lspci calls it unkown device
[21:39] <ikonia> lordapex: cp works well
[21:39] <lordapex> ikonia: would dd backup all the whitespace aswell? not just the data
[21:39] <ikonia> lordapex: exactly
[21:40] <lordapex> ikonia: no way to change that? bzip?
[21:40] <ikonia> lordapex: bzip is just compression

[21:48] <EugenMayer> hello, iam troubleshooting for a while now, but dont get proper results. I just compiled a new kernel, the current 2.26.2 but still my microfon on the T60(82801G (ICH7 Family) High Definition Audio) wont work. Can anybody help me a bit ?
[21:48] <ikonia> EugenMayer: as I said earlier, custom kernels aren't supported
[21:48] <oompa_loompa> first my video control was blacklisted (I got around this already) and second which is the problem that persist is, under glxinfo I have direct rendering equals to yes I can activate the desktop effects but when I do each time I open a tab on gnome terminal(or close it ) the background gets messed up (that is the terminal and the desktop background) same thing with cairo-dock each time i put the mouse over any item, my compiz config is pretty light
[21:48] <oompa_loompa>  not much effects (all of them work by the way) but I just cant make it stop messing my background, installing XGL does the trick, it fixes the issue I just mentioned, but XGL on hardy is so slow :( what can I do?
[21:48] <EugenMayer> ikonia: great, are you kidding? Then you might fix the "stable" one?
[21:48] <gallardo> i was getting a lag of more than 20 secs!!
[21:48] <ikonia> EugenMayer: no, I'm not kidding
[21:49] <ikonia> EugenMayer: if you want updates to the kernel submit bug reports. Have you submitted a bug report
[21:49] <EugenMayer> ikonia: cant believe just read that kind of answer, really. The so called stable kernel is not even able to scan with the total broke ipw3945 drivers, while the one before works.
[21:49] <imtotalcause> ok time to restart so my MB doesn't melt URGH CURSES
[21:49] <EugenMayer> ikonia: i dont need, because there are like on trillion bug reports about that issue
[21:49] <ikonia> EugenMayer: have you logged the bugs ?
[21:50] <ikonia> EugenMayer: have you commmented or provided info on the bugs ?
[21:50] <gallardo> hehe
[21:50] <oompa_loompa> any ideas?
[21:50] <vlad__> xay
[21:50] <gallardo> thinking
[21:50] <gallardo> wait
[21:50] <gallardo> ...
[21:50] <ikonia> gallardo: `what do you want ?
[21:50] <EugenMayer> ikonia: why should i comment somethin what is obvously clear? The drivers used are totaly broken, just look at the gid of the developers, how many bugfixes happend till that time
[21:51] <ikonia> EugenMayer: ok, wait for it to be fixed then
[21:51] <EugenMayer> ikonia: all you need is update the drivers, no need for searching any bugs
[21:51] <chuck-> anyone know hwy i would get this error when trying to install ubunto 8.04: buffer i/o error on device fd0, logical block 0
[21:51] <ikonia> EugenMayer: how do you update the drivers ?
[21:51] <gallardo> nothing , just logged for the first time, trying to understand things
[21:51] <ikonia> EugenMayer: or how should you update the drivers I should say
[21:51] <EugenMayer> ikonia: updating the kernel ?
[21:51] <ikonia> gallardo: this is a support channel, you ask support questions and people answer
[21:51] <gallardo> ok
[21:51] <EugenMayer> ikonia: thats why i use the <IP_ADDRESS> one.
[21:51] <Firstmate> Anyone know how to uninstall wicd and replace it with ubuntus built in wireless manager?
[21:51] <ikonia> EugenMayer: so therefore you must understand what an effort updating the kernel version is to the community
[21:51] <hateball> chuck-: Let it time out, takes a bit... should work fine after that
[21:52] <hateball> chuck-: or use the alternate installer
[21:52] <EugenMayer> ikonia: iam not new to this.
[21:52] <ikonia> EugenMayer: so then you understand why the kenel version has not been updated
[21:52] <chuck-> why would that happen though? I don't have a floppy drive installed
[21:52] <root__> hi i am new to ubuntu i want to configure google talk can any one help meeeeeeee???
[21:52] <EugenMayer> ikonia: i did not offence that, i offenced your opinion about custom kernels are not supported
[21:52] <max7> Could someone share xorg.conf for nvidia 7Go 1650x1080 ?
[21:53] <Firstmate> Anyone?
[21:53] <hateball> chuck-: Buggy installer? I dunno. Just know it's happened to me a few times
[21:53] <gallardo> after installing compiz on my ubuntu 8.04 , i am unable to access my other workspaces.... what shall i do?
[21:53] <ikonia> EugenMayer: well, they are not supported, if your building your own kernels you should be able to support them
[21:53] <EugenMayer> ikonia: because while ubuntu can go that fast for fixing the bug, i can. So blaming me for that is kind of self-destructive.
[21:53] <Greyscale> Does anyone have, on the offchance, a broken IBM x23/24?
[21:53] <ikonia> EugenMayer: no-one is blaming you
[21:53] <ejer> root__: https://help.ubuntu.com/8.04/internet/C/internet-instant-messaging.html
[21:53] <EugenMayer> ikonia: actually the kernel is baken, its just the microphone playing bad. Sound is ok
[21:53] <ejer> Firstmate: you should be able to just uninstall it
[21:54] <ejer> gallardo: what happens
[21:54] <mehehool> how do i turn on my onboard bluetooth device
[21:54] <gallardo> nothing , i just cant use desktop2,3,4...
[21:54] <edmoore> would anyone be able to help me set up wireless sharing of my ethernet connection? I'm entirely cli-based atm, running the wirless pci card that is at the top of this list: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/HardwareSupportComponentsWirelessNetworkCardsEdimax#PCI
[21:54] <edmoore> and the latest hardy-server
[21:54] <ejer> gallardo: why not? what happens when you click them
[21:55] <gallardo> only desktop 1 is available for me, nothing hapens on clicking on them
[21:55] <oompa_loompa> I guess Im just out of luck then
[21:55] <oompa_loompa> I will probably roll back to gutsy (although there wont be updates for long)
[21:55] <ejer> edmoore: seen https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Internet/ConnectionSharing ?
[21:55] <mehehool> ok people how do i turn on my onboard bluetooth device
[21:55] <k4r1m> anybody here using gnome-main-menu?
[21:56] <Grobvok> gallardo: If you installed compiz, you should have a settings manager in System -> Admin/Preferences
[21:56] <gallardo> what shall i do?
[21:56] <gallardo> ya.. the ccsm right??
[21:56] <Firstmate> ejer: from where?
[21:56] <Grobvok> gallardo: Or just right click on the desktop switcher and clich preferences

[21:59] <Firstmate> Ty
[21:59] <ejer> sorry CShadowRun you could use remote desktop built into ubuntu
[21:59] <lone> to make fonts sharper in terminal i loaded vesa and vga modules. also, i looked into the "appearance" settings, but the fonts still dont have the quality like under windows
[22:00] <CShadowRun> ejer yea but thats not really any good for streaming it via webcam either ;p
[22:00] <lone> is there any other way for improvement?
[22:00] <ejer> CShadowRun: you just webcam what you want and set up a web server, motion will do all this

[22:01] <phantomcircuit> i want to install vmware
[22:01] <ejer> CShadowRun: you want a picture of your desktop taken by a webcam right, not a screenshot
[22:01] <ikonia> !vmware > phantomcircuit
[22:01] <CShadowRun> ejer motion will allow me to send a live video of whats going on in my desktop over video conferancing software?
[22:01] <pqlsztjoz> what is up with i can't log in with root? how do i change this
[22:01] <rooroo82> That's due to security
[22:01] <gallardo> my vlc itches while playing .mp3 files, but it plays video files well... what shall i do?
[22:02] <rooroo82> Just do sudo blah
[22:02] <rooroo82> Or su root
[22:02] <ejer> CShadowRun: i guess but I don't see what the webcam part of this is for, why not just show your desktop using software...
[22:02] <ejer> !sudo  | rooroo82
[22:02] <CShadowRun> ejer because video conferencing software takes webcam input...
[22:02] <rooroo82> ejer, I know what sudo is :s
[22:02] <gallardo>  my vlc itches while playing .mp3 files, but it plays video files well... what shall i do?
[22:02] <rconan> is there a workaround for the problems with persistent livecds on hardy?
[22:02] <rooroo82> I love sudo
[22:02] <ejer> rooroo82: then you know how to enable root easily
[22:02] <rooroo82> ejer, indeed
[22:02] <gallardo>  my vlc itches while playing .mp3 files, but it plays video files well... what shall i do?
[22:02] <rooroo82> Which is why I never asked a question about it ;)
[22:02] <idefix_> so about the bus doubling..
[22:03] <rooroo82> It was pqlsztjoz who asked
[22:03] <ejer> ok sorry
[22:03] <gallardo> quit()
[22:03] <gallardo>  my vlc itches while playing .mp3 files, but it plays video files well... what shall i do?
[22:03] <rooroo82> ejer :p
[22:03] <woelfi> hey guys (first time here) can anyone help me? i just installed the game "savage" . i wanted to start the game, but nothing happens..... i tryed bout 10 times,but it still doesnt work.... =/
[22:03] <CShadowRun> ejer www.manycam.com take a look at this, it does what i want, but it's windows only :<
[22:03] <grobda24> gallardo, "itches~" ?!! What is it an aadvark ?
[22:04] <pqlsztjoz> i find it odd that i can change root's password  from regular user account,  what kind of security is this
[22:04] <C|ick> ...
[22:04] <zachb> pqlsztjoz: maybe you were a super user?
[22:04] <pqlsztjoz> zachb  even with superuser, i shouldn't be able to change root's password
[22:04] <ejer> CShadowRun: maybe you can clarify what you want to achieve? manycam just looks like any other webcam viewer with some effects...
[22:05] <CShadowRun> ejer and one of it's effects is being able to transmit whats going on on your desktop, live
[22:05] <Pirate_Hunter> if i remove libgtk1.2 what kinds of problems may i face?
[22:05] <ejer> pqlsztjoz: root does not have a password
[22:05] <grobda24> woelfi ... how did you install it ?
[22:05] <woelfi> i installed it with the terminal.....
[22:06] <woelfi> it is totaly installed, ive a desktip icon and all the stuff....
[22:06] <woelfi> but i cant start it
[22:06] <grobda24> woelfi, have you searched in add/remove or synaptic ?
[22:06] <reesebw> hello.  I need advice, more so than help.  I recently installed ubuntu to dual boot with windows xp.  i surprisingly found that I use ubuntu a lot more and did not partition enough space on my harddrive.  is a reinstall/reformat the only way to change this problem, and are there ways to back-up and restore ubuntu to make the process go a bit quicker?  thanks in advance for any advice.
[22:06] <EugenMayer> how to start the cpufreq-applet ?
[22:06] <EugenMayer> or even install it
[22:06] <CShadowRun> ejer so like i could be playing a game, and broadcasting it live over msn
[22:06] <Sweet_Bishop> hi
[22:06] <grobda24> reesebw, if you need extra space you should be able to use the winxp partition.
[22:07] <ambush> ok, anyone who was here half an hour ago when i asked my question about getting my wireless card working: kaiwen posted what i needed to do. it didn't work
[22:07] <ejer> CShadowRun: it is possible to do, I don't know of an app that combines webcam with screen sharing out of the box
[22:07] <CShadowRun> ejer maybe you could talk me through it? i have tried before with no sucess :(
[22:08] <C|ick_> ok
[22:08] <grobda24> !wireless | ambush
[22:08] <CShadowRun> i know i have to use some sort of loopback device and another app to fire webcam into it, but thats about as far as i got
[22:08] <reesebw> i know, but I have been finding it a bit tedious to use.  I really just need the extra space so I can use the ubuntu desktop more liberally as well as have room for apps.  I thought I was going to use ubuntu as just a play space and gave it only 9 gigs which I realize is not enough to make it my main os.
[22:08] <CShadowRun> fire the screen into it i mean :)
[22:08] <ejer> i would have to set it up myself first CShadowRun I would just use 2 apps for this personally and not try and stream thru video conference software
[22:08] <CShadowRun> aww
[22:08]  * chull smiles
[22:08] <CShadowRun> guess i'll keep looking then.
[22:09] <ejer> CShadowRun: i would set up a web page with 2 viewers, one for cam, one for screen
[22:09] <grobda24> !partition | reesebw
[22:09] <ejer> CShadowRun: i will hint that some video apps like motion make a video loopback device
[22:09] <chull> does anyone know how to get page numbers in an open office document? I clicked in the footer and Insert Fields Page Numbers .. and in the footer it /says' "Page Numbers" It should have numbers, no?
[22:10] <CShadowRun> ejer yea but i'd like to have support not only for msn, but for other such things aswell, so a loopback device would be nice
[22:10] <CShadowRun> i'm sure i'll figure it out
[22:10] <reesebw> thanks ubottu, i'll take a look at those

[22:11] <jhb1608> how do I clean junk files?
[22:11] <Pirate_Hunter> what does   libglib1.2ldbl actually do, is it safe to remove it?
[22:11] <jhb1608> I am nearly out of space...
[22:11] <ejer> jhb1608: you could do an 'sudo apt-get clean' in terminal to get some space
[22:12] <SeveredCross> Pirate_Hunter: Are you going through /usr/lib and removing stuff?
[22:12] <ejer> Pirate_Hunter: if you are not sure, why mess with it... is it causing problems
[22:12] <gyro54> Please help! I have run the upgrade from 7.10 to 8.04 and the computer is locked with 7 minutes to go? Can I shutdown and restart?
[22:12] <jhb1608> ok
[22:12] <SeveredCross> gyro54: You can't unlock it?
[22:12] <helderam> hello... I trying to access www.ubuntu-br.org .. but not working
[22:12] <SeveredCross> Also, just keep it running, it'll (hopefully) finish without any human interaction needed.
[22:12] <yousif111> Hi. I m checking whether i have a connection to internet. Do you have any improvement for me?  if [[ ` ping -c  1 www.google.nl |grep -c "1 received" ` = 0 ]]; then  echo you are not connected to the internet; fi;
[22:13] <helderam> do anybody know why ?
[22:13] <Pirate_Hunter> SeveredCross: nah using debfoster but some of the synaptic description is not that helpful but it seems gtk-theme-switch is using them so its ok to remove
[22:13] <jhb1608> it is working now
[22:13] <niocholas_jones> hey guys, is there a hot-key to switch between jobs, so instead of doing control+z, then %2 ( or whatever the job # is ) , I could do, control+F3 or something, is there any shortcut for this ?
[22:13] <ejer> helderam: looks like the site is down
[22:13] <SeveredCross> Hmm.
[22:13] <gyro54> I am using it to write this but the screen has the upgrade info with the line at 7 minutes to go?
[22:13] <td123> gyro54: try leaving it along for about 23 more minutes, if nothing then start worrying.
[22:13] <Pirate_Hunter> ejer: im not messing with it just taking out the garbage that i dont need
[22:13] <ejer> Pirate_Hunter: unless you can identify garbage that seems risky ;) and unnecessary
[22:13] <gyro54> It has been on 7 minutes for about 3 hours
[22:14] <rconan> how do I mount a samba share so I can write to it? (not using nautilus)
[22:14] <Pirate_Hunter> ejer: just did with debfoster it is helpful very helpful
[22:14] <lubosz2> hi, is there an init.d script which resets all networking stuff and restarts the network manager applet?
[22:14] <jhb1608> ok I installed by apt-get clean, now what?
[22:14] <ejer> how will this help your system Pirate_Hunter
[22:14] <reesebw> second problem i had a question with.  I have an external harddrive.  it is formatted in NTFS and use it to store my media.  I want to share it with my xbox running XBMC.  When I attempt to edit the sharing options I do not have the permissions.  I do not have this problem with my other external formated in fat32.  I can't seem to get control over this drive.
[22:14] <ejer> check disk space jhb1608
[22:14] <helderam> this site is from canonical ?
[22:14] <Pirate_Hunter> gyro54: o.0 hmmm and you didnt restart whatever youre doing
[22:14] <jhb1608> 2.1GB
[22:14] <jhb1608> no difference
[22:14] <justs0me> at shutdown i see "Stopping firewall: ufw" wth is that i have selinux installed?
[22:15] <bobertdos>  lubosz2: It should just be "networking" I think
[22:15] <chull> ejer, the oo people seem to have gone home already, i did ask in there. ty for the webpage.
[22:15] <SeveredCross> justs0me: Uh...
[22:15] <lubosz2> bobertdos: thx
[22:15] <SeveredCross> If it was SeLinux, it'd say SELinux, not ufw.
[22:15] <georgy_28> lubosz2, : reset networking : sudo /etc/init.d/network restart
[22:15] <justs0me> SeveredCross: thats what i thought
[22:15] <bobertdos>  lubosz2: You can always ls /etc/init.d to make sure it's there.
[22:15] <jhb1608> Do there is a way to clean junk files? I tried the Firefox cleaning
[22:15] <georgy_28> lubosz, : sorry networking not network
[22:15] <jhb1608> and all stuff
[22:16] <Pirate_Hunter> ejer: debfoster deletes dependencies used by apps which apt-get & aptitude leave behind as well as telling you which modules a program has installed with it, you should search for it and read the page
[22:16] <gyro54> No the desktop is still working but is the original 7.10. The Program lists have changed
[22:16] <lubosz> bobertdos: will this script have influence on the network manager gnome applet?
[22:16] <XiXaQ> How can I install the Norwegian browser Opera?
[22:16] <ejer> Pirate_Hunter: i know very well what it does, and unless you are critically low on disk space it will not make your system faster or help at all really, just risk breakin stuff
[22:16] <bobertdos> lubosz: I believe so, though don't quote me on that.
[22:17] <xal2> Is there a backport for nvidia-glx-new?
[22:17] <xal2> I need the latest driver for my video card.
[22:17] <Hazelip> Hi, I've posted on the general help forums, but I was wondering if anyone here would mind taking a stab at a lowly newb's problem?
[22:17] <xal2> Otherwise I"m stuck using the binary which is causing a few problems
[22:17] <Pirate_Hunter> ejer: isnt that comment based upon opinion and im sure this conversation is supposed to be in offtopic
[22:17] <bobertdos> Hazelip: Ask away :)
[22:17] <Hazelip> http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=883104&highlight=shutdown  <- my post
[22:18] <Hazelip> I've gotten my Compaq Presario V6000 up and running with 8.04.1 and everything is happy in hooville.
[22:18] <Hazelip> But, when I shut down, or the system goes into hibernate, I get a messed up screen that looks like my laptop is trying to eat the LCD.
[22:18] <Hazelip> It appears to shut down normally, start up is fine, and I have no other graphical or visual problems.
[22:19] <tobylane> hi, i'm trying to install stuff bit it doesn't make sense. If I can't get something by apt-get, I download the source, but then ./configure always fails, ive tried on about ten things
[22:19] <Hazelip> It's weird, but I don't know if I should be concerned or not being completely new.
[22:19] <bobertdos> Hazelip: That still sounds like a problem with the video driver. What graphics device is in that system?
[22:19] <CShadowRun> tobylane tried reading the error messages that ./configure puts out? It's usually because you have missing dependancies.
[22:19] <Hazelip> It's an nvidia, and the driver updates came down automatically.
[22:19] <Hazelip> I'm firing it up now to get the details.
[22:20] <bobertdos> Hazelip: Restriced or open-source?
[22:20] <tobylane> it says things like gtk, gcc, etc aren't there, and they are
[22:20] <ejer> Pirate_Hunter: no, not opinion at all, and you asked the question, meaning you don't understand what the lib is for, hence since this is a support channel I advised you not to mess with stuff you don't understand, feel free to ignore me and do it anyways
[22:20] <ejer> tobylane: what do you want to install
[22:20] <Hazelip> Restricted, I think.  The video drivers are lumped in with the Broadcom drivers as "being needed to make this computer work." or some kind of wording.
[22:20] <Pirate_Hunter> ejer: XD
[22:20] <saypher> #ubuntu-es

[22:21] <Firstmate> Can anyone offer wine help with mirc?
[22:21] <metheon> whats the name of that flash blocking extension to firefox that replaces the flash with a play arrow you can click to view the flash?
[22:21] <jhb1608> do there is a way to clean junk files, I stil have 2.1GB free space.
[22:21] <ejer> tobylane: you do not need to download anything for this please see https://help.ubuntu.com/8.04/add-applications/C/index.html

[22:21] <tobylane> ty
[22:21] <gyro54> It stopped when it was generating locales en_AU.utf-8...for /etc/belocs/iso.def. Should I shutdown and restart?
[22:22] <jhb1608> 31.1MB will be freed
[22:22] <verynew> perhaps silly problem, but what the heck. Can you guys tell me where is .bashrc file? I just cant find it. I was already editing it [gedit .bashrc] but cant find that damn file, im curious where it hid. I found only {bash.bashrc and dot.bashrc}
[22:22] <ejer> jhb1608: there is not much junk files you can delete really, why do you feel it is junk files taking up space?
[22:22] <ejer> verynew: it does not exist, you can just create it manually
[22:23] <verynew> tthen how i could edit it? O_O
[22:23] <bobertdos> Hazelip: Is it a fairly new Nvidia model?
[22:23] <Hazelip> Yes.
[22:23] <ejer> verynew: start a new text document with text editor and save it as /home/yourusers/.bashrc
[22:24] <ActionParsnip> werd y'alls
[22:24] <jhb1608> it is might be the updates I installed, I have 10GB capacity.
[22:24] <Hazelip> Crap.  I need to block some nitwit who is PMing me about his dire need for a bowel movement.
[22:24] <tobylane> jhb1608, i would suggest going through things, like do you need all your window/desktop managers
[22:24] <gyro54> Help!   I can't.
[22:24] <ActionParsnip> jhb1608: if you need space run sudo apt-get clean
[22:25] <Hazelip> bob, it's fairly new.  the lappy's maybe a little over a year old?
[22:25] <verynew> ejer: ok. i just found it little weird that i edited a file that does not exist, added some aliases and they worked..
[22:25] <ejer> already did ActionParsnip
[22:25] <Hazelip> We got an admin in the channel?
[22:25] <kris_> Hello
[22:25] <ActionParsnip> no just a midlevel user
[22:25] <ejer> verynew: i may be wrong... but if file exists and you already edited it... what is issue?
[22:26] <bobertdos> Hazelip: As much as I hate telling this same thing to almost everyone I run across, I always tell people with newer cards to look into installing proprietary drivers.
[22:26] <gyro54> Will the computer work if I restart if the upgrade to 8.04 stopped at 7 minutes to go?
[22:26] <verynew> ejer: don't bother, was curious
[22:26] <ActionParsnip> verynew: by editing the file you create it
[22:26] <Hazelip> I thought restricted drivers were proprietary drivers?
[22:26] <ejer> verynew: it will be found in ~/.bashrc
[22:27] <tobylane> gyro54, try, at the worst you'll have to reinstall
[22:27] <tobylane> *re upgrade
[22:27] <kris_> If anybody here hasn't tried terminator, you should.. it's fabulous
[22:27] <clayg> Hazelip, they are- he thinks you aren't using them already - i believe
[22:27] <ActionParsnip> gyro54: leave it for a while (like 10 mins) then if its stuck troubleshoot from there
[22:27] <verynew> ejer: it isnt there.... or i dont see it
[22:27] <verynew> are in linux hidden files?
[22:27] <Hazelip> clay, you and your declarations of bowel needs can leave me the hell alone any time now...
[22:28] <gyro54> It has been 3 hours
[22:28] <ejer> verynew: files starting with a dot are hidden by default in nautilus, go to view>hidden files
[22:28] <Clint-> Anyone know of a video capture software that runs well on ubuntu. For capturing your screen
[22:28] <tobylane> clint vlc
[22:28] <verynew> ejer: oh, thanks; im completely new to linux :)
[22:28] <bobertdos> Hazelip: Actually, when I say proprietary, I mean the drivers downloaded directly from Nvidia.
[22:28] <clayg> I'm talking about nvidia restricted drivers, who you are referring to when you say proprietary drivers (i believe)
[22:28] <Clint-> tobylane,  to capture the screen?
[22:28] <clayg> ah, i am wrong then
[22:29] <ActionParsnip> verynew: a dot at the start of a file denotes hidden-ness
[22:29] <EugenMayer> anybody has an idea, why setting the phc_vids works ( cat phc_vids shows the correct result ) but it seems not to affect the syste, as i could go down to 5 on the highes scale
[22:29] <ejer> Clint-: http://alicious.com/2008/videomovie-screen-capture-programs-for-ubuntu-linux/
[22:29] <Clint-> ejer, thank you
[22:29] <gyro54> ActionParsnip: What do you think will happen because I can still use the computer at the moment.
[22:30] <ActionParsnip> gyro54: i wouldnt reboot halfway, can you input at all?
[22:31] <Pulpie> anyone know of the ati radeonhd drivers are decent enough yet?

[22:32] <ActionParsnip> sure gyro54
[22:33] <ActionParsnip> Pulpie: im not too knowledgable of ati due to me never using them

[22:33] <Pulpie> ActionParsnip: then dont point me to a link that you no nothing about
[22:33] <mixed> !nvidia
[22:34] <ActionParsnip> Pulpie: it may have given some useful info, sorry for trying to help
[22:34] <gyro54> ActionParsnip: The new icon looks like power plug and says "unable to get data"
[22:34] <jhb1608> uninstalling and installing some stuff I need

[22:35] <ActionParsnip> Pulpie: i always do :)
[22:35] <Pulpie> tobylane: am i sure what?
[22:36] <tobylane> that you want an old version
[22:36] <gyro54> ActionParsnip: Yes the computer is still working fine but the Dist upgrade has stopped
[22:36] <ejer> Pulpie: cool down... not necessary to insult people, and you could try looking yourself first next time http://www.digitalself.org/2008/06/17/radeonhd-git-on-ubuntu-hardy-with-dri-3d-support/
[22:36] <ActionParsnip> Pulpie: theres torrents of the older versions everywhere dude

I have a computer with an atheros wireless card.  after screwing around with madwifi, I just went ahead and installed ndiswrapper, and then what should be the correct driver in it, however, I'm still not getting the device in iwconfig, sugesting to me that it isn't plugged in right.  anyone have some insight?
[22:39] <Mark_vH> tobylane, thanks...how to debug this? any logfiles to check?
[22:40] <ejer> phoenixcasper: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebuggingSoundProblems
[22:40] <tobylane> no, i just know wubi isn't very good
[22:40] <tobylane> bye, ill probably need reps help tommorow :$
[22:40] <ejer> !flash | Brucee
[22:40] <Mark_vH> right...
[22:41] <ActionParsnip> depeshe-node: if you are using ndiswrapper id uninstall madwifi
[22:41] <sharperguy> Hi. I had the problem earlier where I couldn't upgrade from gusty to hardy (starting from a clean feisty install and going from there) because locale-gen was failing on that kernel. Well I've sorted that now but I still can't get hal to configure properly, dpkg gives me "invoke-rc.d: initscript hal, action "start" failed.". Can anyone help?
[22:41] <Pirate_Hunter> whats the name of the default run program in ubuntu i.e. when you hold alt+f2?
 it was a custom install that I hooked in with modprobe.  how would I uninstall it?
[22:41] <amenado> Pirate_Hunter-> same run level as the others, you only get one level
[22:41] <ejer> Mark_vH: seen https://wiki.ubuntu.com/WubiGuide#Cannot%20boot%20into%20Ubuntu ?
[22:42] <Aragorn> quitters
[22:42] <nickrud> Pirate_Hunter, that's part of gnome-panel
[22:42] <gyro54> eger: I have a problem don't I
[22:42] <ActionParsnip> depeshe-node: sudo apt-get --purge remove madwifi-tools
[22:42] <ActionParsnip> depeshe-node: try tab completing, i dunno the EXACT package name
[22:42] <Pirate_Hunter> amenado: huh.. didnt get that just need the name of that app I cant be bothered installing fbrun when ubuntu comes with a default one just dont know what it is called and I cant use alt+f2 in icewm
[22:43] <ejer> gyro54: my nick is ejer :) and yes it lloks like you might have a problem... you could try clicking the cancel and close buttons and say force quit, but I can't guarantee you that your system will be usable... if you have not yet, I would backup everything you can in case
[22:43] <Pirate_Hunter> nickrud: ahh so im guessing ill need to install that to get it :(, there isnt a way to get it separatly?
[22:43] <Mark_vH> ejer: thanks, i will try the suggestions there
[22:43] <fetova>
 apt-get didn't detect it. I installed it from source (since that's what a lot of tutorials suggest)
[22:43] <nickrud> Pirate_Hunter, I've seen something, I'm checking the back brain
[22:44] <ejer> Pirate_Hunter: you could try out https://wiki.ubuntu.com/GnomeDo
[22:44] <Pirate_Hunter> nickrud: wow so geeky nice, well ill be here if you remember anything
[22:44] <ActionParsnip> depeshe-node: oh, erm i think you need the source to do sudo make <something>
[22:44] <verynew> how to add extra commands (example: LANG=C) to shortcuts icons (if its possible)?
[22:45] <gyro54> ejer: Thanks for your help
 I've still got the source sitting arround. perhaps the makefile would have an uninstall function?
[22:45] <ejer> Pirate_Hunter: from http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/icewm - apparently Windows Key + spacebar brings up run dialog in icewm
[22:45] <dexi> my flash videos are choppy/low frame rate and have no sound... any help?
[22:45] <nickrud> Pirate_Hunter, my memory is failing. I'm just getting old, I guess ;(
[22:45] <nahoj> what do I need to do to execute a *.sh file?
[22:46] <ejer> dexi: http://alicious.com/2008/videomovie-screen-capture-programs-for-ubuntu-linux/ could help...
[22:46] <nickrud> verynew you mean like in a menu, or launcher?
[22:46] <jpds> nahoj: sh filename.sh
[22:46] <phoenixcasper> I got my sound working thanks everyone!
[22:46] <ActionParsnip> depeshe-node: ive not done source for AGES
[22:46] <nahoj> jpds, as root?
[22:46] <Pirate_Hunter> ejer: ty, fnny enough i saw a post talking about that, hope it doesn bloat the system but than this comp can handle it but im just stingy on space :)
[22:46] <Oli``> dexi: let me guess - you're running on nvidia and compiz?
[22:46] <Pirate_Hunter> ejer: ooh didnt know that will try
[22:46] <bjb1959> I lose my dns entry everytime I reboot. any ideas?
[22:46] <jpds> nahoj: Depends. The script should ask you if you need root access
[22:46] <verynew> nickrud: i mean, i got an icon on a desktop and i would like to launch program with extra commands by clicking on it
[22:47] <Pirate_Hunter> nickrud: ahhh youll never be too old for me np will try ejer's posts
[22:47] <nahoj> jpds, I get the following: "bootinst.sh: 22: Bad substitution" - that's also when I do it as root
[22:47] <ejer> bjb1959: you could make sure your network manager is set to roaming mode
[22:47] <depeshe-node> <action parsnip> guess I'll just take a look arround the source files myself ;)
[22:47] <nickrud> verynew, that's not enough info to go on; but a generic solution is to write a bash script doing what you want and linking the launcher on the desktop to that
[22:48] <Coder7> ActionParsnip: recordmydesktop crashes without error, just like istanbul does
[22:48] <nahoj> jpds, you know what I might have missed?
[22:48] <jpds> nahoj: No.. sorry.
[22:48] <Kcaj> I need help with some bash/shell commands where I'm not "live"
[22:48] <ActionParsnip> !recordmydesktop
[22:48] <Pirate_Hunter> ejer: i luv you since makign this clean install that was the only thing i was missing, just beautiful ;D
[22:48] <nahoj> jpds, ok, thx anyway
[22:48] <ActionParsnip> !info recordmydesktop
[22:48] <ejer> nice Pirate_Hunter
[22:48] <Oli``> dexi: the whole framerate needs nvidia and adobe to improve their respective products. they're high priority issues so I wouldn't think they'd take too much longer trying to fix it. Though I thought the same thing a few months back too. Sound can be fixed by: sudo apt-get install libflashsupport
[22:48] <Kcaj> As in, I need to do this: /var/qmail/bin/qmail-inject<EMAIL_ADDRESS>MESSAGE GOES HERE ctrl+d;
[22:48] <ActionParsnip> Coder7: those are the only 2 I know
[22:49] <Kcaj> Is ; the right character to yuse to "enter"? Also, how to type ctrl+d?
[22:49] <roidelapluie> I am looking for someone who is living in LONDON and who has Widows Live!
[22:49] <ActionParsnip> roidelapluie: im in leeds but no windows here
[22:49] <jockl> how do i install the iwl3945 driver if it is precompiled?
[22:49] <roidelapluie> ActionParsnip: Do you have jabber?
[22:49] <nahoj> jpds, do I have to prepare the *.sh file in any way before using it?
[22:49] <verynew> nickrud: example: i can run terminal and type :LANG=C app_name. i wonder is there a simple way to do the same with icon shortcut on a desktop
[22:49] <k4r1m> how come when i do "gtk-window-decorator --replace" it works but the moment i close the terminal it goes back..?
[22:49] <ActionParsnip> roidelapluie: msn, sametime, aol and irc only
[22:49] <ejer> verynew: why do you need this
[22:50] <roidelapluie> ActionParsnip: what is your MSN address?
[22:50] <jpds> nahoj: Not sure, read the documentation that comes with it. Maybe it'll have some tips.
 well, the source *did* come with a make uninstall, luckily, though I still had to modprobe it in, so I have the lurking feeling ndiswrapper may not be hooked in yet
[22:50] <uoaphys> I'm having trouble getting sound on a new Ubuntu install, and the sound card is an sblive! value
[22:50] <nickrud> verynew, put a launcher on the desktop. Think launcher not icon shortcut (which can be a link as well)
[22:50] <verynew> ejer: quicker, more convenient, when i accidentally close terminal the program wont close
[22:50] <dexi> the framerate worked yesterday
[22:50] <uoaphys> will someone help me with my sound problem?
[22:50] <dexi> i reinstalled linux
[22:50] <dexi> and now its crappy
[22:50] <pgreptom> Hey, something funny has happened.  I was playing with mplayer to try to be able to play real media files.. and now, regular .avi files and what not do not play right in Dragon, or VLC. . . mplayer is the only application that plays any of the files right.  When playing in Dragon, or VLC - the colors are way off (blue looks redish, etc.) - any idea/?!
[22:50] <dexi> i think its the way it installed tho
[22:50] <roidelapluie> ActionParsnip: what is your MSN address please?

[22:53] <lancer> pgreptom, I can't remember exactly - but I had something like that with me for a while... green skin and such, not *all* colours was the weird thing. I think it was solved bygoing into xine and choosing a different hardware driver.
[22:53] <ejer> verynew: http://webtools.live2support.com/linux/export.php but i say again you will most likely not need to fool with this

[22:54] <xal2> I'm having problems with my graphics driver.
[22:54] <xal2> I'm using the Nvidia binary driver from the website
[22:54] <bjb1959> ejer, sorry lost connection. my network is set to roaming. but it is wired not wireless so not sure why that would matter
[22:54] <xal2> because the ubuntu restricted driver does not work
[22:54] <ActionParsnip> xal2: id try envyng-gtk
[22:54] <xal2> i can install the binary, but when i restart, it does not work
[22:54] <xal2> what is that?
[22:54] <ActionParsnip> !envyng-gtk | xal2

[22:55] <ejer> bjb1959: cause that means use dhcp, you could try also manually setting it to use dhcp
[22:55] <carter> reload grub?
[22:55] <lancer> pgreptom, I don't recall... it was settings on one of my media players I think... but the key is I wasted time searching for codecs and it was the hardware drivers (XV etc) that needed to be corrected.
[22:55] <verynew> nickrud,ejer: thanks, i will have to think about it for a while
[22:55] <Pirate_Hunter> how do i call mplayer in terminal with gui?
[22:55] <ejer> Pirate_Hunter: gmplayer
[22:55] <pgreptom> lancer: I was playing with those last night in mplayer.  So perhaps I should use mplayer and change them back
[22:55] <georgy_28> Pirate_Hunter, : gmplayer
[22:56] <ActionParsnip> Pirate_Hunter: gmplayer &
[22:56] <nickrud> verynew, the key thing you need to remember is the launcher is not executing in a shell environment, that's why LANGUAGE="C" doesn't work
[22:56] <lancer> pgreptom, yes it could be.Thing is I'
[22:56] <Pirate_Hunter> georgy_28, ActionParsnip, ejer: ty
[22:56] <pgreptom> l' ?
[22:57] <verynew> nickrud: ok! i just started learning linux
[22:57] <spiz> me too
[22:57] <lancer> pgreptom, thing is I'm pretrty certain your description sounds the same. Don't dowhat I did and search the earth for updated codecs.
[22:57] <pgreptom> lancer: So basically just play with mplayer and mess with the type of video"xv, etc" ?
[22:58] <nickrud> verynew, enjoy :) The curve starts steep, but there's a real view from the top :)
[22:58] <lancer> pgreptom, yes - I think that should be it. Try a non accelerated one at first.

[23:03] <Clint-> jhb1608, sudo apt-get remove openoffice
[23:03] <jhb1608> aha
[23:03] <jhb1608> easier
[23:04] <ActionParsnip> !realplayer | pgreptom
[23:04] <goodbyegravity> It may need to be openoffice-base-core or something like that; is there a metapackage?
[23:04] <dexi> ejer: mv needs an operand
[23:04] <xal2> how do i run the dpkg-reconfigure command in full?
[23:04] <jhb1608> ok uninstalling.
[23:04] <xal2> I only get to configure the keyboard
[23:04] <pgreptom> It's not a real player issue.  Now the problem is trying to play regular .avi or .mpeg's correctly.
[23:04] <xal2> never get to video card\ monitor
[23:04] <xal2> lol
[23:04] <dexi> wait
[23:04] <dexi> nevermind i did it wrong

[23:04] <ejer> pgreptom: try resetting stuff back to default?
[23:04] <goodbyegravity> Adding .rm support to mplayer is actually really easy
[23:04] <pgreptom> goodbyegravity: The video driver in mplayer.  I had no idea it would reset the settings for all players.
[23:05] <goodbyegravity> the W32 codecs libs?
[23:05] <pgreptom> ejer: I was thinking that.  but how do I reset back to the default video player (like xv, opengl, or what not)
[23:05] <Clint-> export
[23:05] <pgreptom> I installed those manually off a guide, and now I can't find where they are to delete them.
[23:05] <Vooloo> I got some kind of remote control with my dell inspiron 1525, but it doesnt seem to work out of the box.. I cant find any information on how to install it either.. anyone have experience with this?
[23:05] <goodbyegravity> You can pick between Shm, XV, etc. in the Preferences --> uhh
[23:05] <Clint-> Vooloo, yea they will work i have one also
[23:05] <goodbyegravity> One of the tabs, hold on
[23:05] <pgreptom> goodbyegravity:  I use KDE :/
[23:05] <Vooloo> Clint-: what did you do?
[23:05] <ejer> pgreptom: depends what you changed ;) sounds like something in xorg.conf
[23:05] <goodbyegravity> Does the frontend not have the option?
[23:06] <Vooloo> Clint-: is it infrared ?
[23:06] <goodbyegravity> Or are you running command-only?
[23:06] <Clint-> Vooloo, yer it is
[23:06] <Mica> ActionParsnip: Okay I'll try that, but is there anything else I should know to do if that does work?
[23:06] <Clint-> Vooloo,  i just used google and looked around
[23:06] <pgreptom> I use the front end in mplayer.  But it doesn't seem like ANY of them will fix the other players .. perhaps I should just re-configure x back to default?  Are those settings stored in xorg?
[23:06] <goodbyegravity> Not in xorg.conf
[23:06] <Clint-> Vooloo,  and found that using the windows program under wine was 300000000 times easier =P
[23:07] <dexi> ejer: yesterday before i re-installed linux, i clicked "get flashplayer" and it loaded it like an extension, got it, and said to restart..... today its taking me to an adobe page and asking me to get that tar.gz
[23:07] <pgreptom> Where can I reset it at?  And where do w32codecs install.. I need to erase them
[23:07] <dexi> ejer: know whats going on? ^
[23:07] <ActionParsnip> Mica: it will as the recovey mode you can reset xorg.conf back to defaults to give a desktop
[23:07] <Vooloo> Clint-: heh damn
[23:07] <dstaley> Does anyone know how to use bootcd?
[23:07] <goodbyegravity> pgreptom:   You may want to see if there are some errant symlinks that you created, but I wouldn't know where to look
[23:07] <Vooloo> Clint-: so you never got it to work inside ubuntu without emulation?
[23:07] <goodbyegravity> pgreptom: /usr/lib/win32
[23:07] <goodbyegravity> Something like that
[23:07] <pgreptom> goodbyegravity: I didn't create any.  I installed "w32codecs" manually .. lettme go delet them
[23:07] <ejer> dexi: it is installed, maybe just not responding on some pages.. flash sucks
[23:07] <Clint-> Vooloo,  once i got it working i never mess with it
[23:07] <uoaphys> ok i fixed my sound problem (partially) But here is the real problem: I have onboard sound which is detecting, and sblive sound which is detecting both in alsa. However, I want to listen to music, system sounds, etc.. on my sblive ( I don't even use the integrated sound).

[23:07] <DozedOnLinux> pgreptom:  sudo aptitude remove <package name>

[23:07] <pgreptom> I didn't install the codecs like that.

[23:09] <pgreptom> goodbyegravity: So what do you recommend?  How do I reset it?
[23:09] <nickrud> !synaptics | Vooloo
[23:09] <afallenhope> anyone know how to get rid of the build-dep ? I used build-dep xchat, and now I don't need the dependencies... how do I remove them/
[23:09] <DX> When I try boot from LIVE CD, I get this "Busy Box" message.
[23:09] <goodbyegravity> pgreptom: You might want to just try uninstalling Totem, MPlayer et al. and see what happens
[23:09] <Mica> ActionParsnip: I don't think it shows that to me at any point, the only time I would think it would is at the beginning screen (where it shows options to Install Ubuntu, Try Desktop tour without changing anything, etc)
[23:09] <uoaphys> how do I switch from using one sound card to another (both installed at once)
[23:09] <goodbyegravity> Or try to reset the packages with apt
[23:09] <Vooloo> Clint-: nothing
[23:09] <dexi> i really need to start taking notes on everything i do in linux
[23:09] <Clint-> Vooloo,  check that last link nick sent you
[23:09] <Vooloo> ok
[23:09] <DX> :( no help?
[23:09] <linxeh> dexi: and on anything you do work wise - keep a log book!
[23:09] <goodbyegravity> DX, what do you need help with?
[23:09] <dexi> ejer: it was flash-nonfree i was referring to
[23:10] <ActionParsnip> Mica: read the screen all the time, you'll see it
[23:10] <DX> That BuxyBOX message ?
[23:10] <ejer> dexi: me too
[23:10] <dexi> ejer: i just realized that
[23:10] <DX> busy*
[23:10] <Blaqlight> Im having a problem with gnome, I can't get it too fully load.
[23:10] <goodbyegravity> Oh, sorry, I didn't see.  Not my area of knowlege, sorry.  :(
[23:10] <Mica> ActionParsnip:  Okay, I'll go try again, hope I don't have any more problems.
[23:10] <uoaphys> Will you help me? I have onboard sound and an SBLive pci card. I want to use the sblive, but onboard seems to be default and I can't figure where to change it... I double clicked on the sound icon and switched to sblive, but that doesn't seem to do it
[23:10] <RequinB41> DX: Try the alt cd
[23:10] <ejer> dexi: in terminal do 'sudo aptitude search flashplugin-nonfree' if you see an i next to it it is installed
[23:10] <goodbyegravity> uoaphys: Disable the onboard in the bios
[23:11] <goodbyegravity> Quickest solution
[23:11] <dexi> ejer:  i just installed it now
[23:11] <RequinB41> DX: most likely you'll have to install via alt CD and install the correct video drivers when its installed
[23:11] <goodbyegravity> ALSA should pick it up when you reboot
[23:11] <Mark_vH> could the presence of bad clusters on a disk keep ubuntu from installing (through wubi)?
[23:11] <ChryLimeade> uoaphys: You're using gnome, right?
[23:11] <DX> I have Celeron with 3.02 GHZ and I download + burned the software on a CD. Then, I rebooted and chose the LIVE CD option, but after that "uBuntu" splash page, I get some Busy Box message
[23:11] <pgreptom> goodbyegravity: So remove all my media players except for mplayer?  Mplayer is the only one that displays color properly anyway
[23:11] <ejer> Mark_vH: note that if ntfs is not cleanly shutdown this can be a problem... it is on the wiki page
[23:12] <DX> alt cd?
[23:12] <dexi> ejer: now this is getting on my nerves... every video... no matter the website, is playing intil 2 seconds, then stopping
[23:12] <goodbyegravity> pgreptom: That's the simplest thing I can think of; it might be difficult to find exactly what libraries they're using without reading a bunch of stuff
[23:12] <Blaqlight> anyone know how to fix this problem, I want gnome to run.. I think something messed up my gnome-session settings.
[23:12] <rebel_kid> hey, how do i install my printer, never done it before and i cant find much info on it
[23:12] <Mark_vH> ejer, yes i did a clean shutdown and the problem persists in that case
[23:12] <goodbyegravity> DX:  Do you have the memory hole enable in your BIOS?
[23:12] <uoaphys> goodbye gravity: I was going to do that as a last resort.. but I figured someone would know where you go to switch to a different sound card in the OS somewhere
[23:12] <DX> Dunno :( what do I enable it??
[23:12] <DX> how*
[23:12] <goodbyegravity> uoaphys: It won't harm your computer anything, and you won't be using it anyway :)
[23:12] <Mark_vH> ejer: trying a wubi reinstall now...
[23:12] <Blaqlight> rebel_kid: is CUPS installed and can you get to it at http://localhost:631?
[23:12] <ejer> dexi: this is normal, flash is crappy
[23:12] <Windsurfer619> (Q) Hey, does anyone know a way I can killall nautilus whenever it starts to use moar than 200 MB of ram?
[23:13] <rooroo82> Hmm how could I get my program to create a new command on ubuntu?
[23:13] <RequinB41> !altcd
[23:13] <goodbyegravity> DX:  There's usually a setting calling "Memory hole" or something along those lines somewhere in the BIOS--the option, if it is set, will be 15M-16M
[23:13] <TiredWolf> rooroo82: say again?
[23:13] <goodbyegravity> It might be easier to find it base on that; if it's not there, that's not your problem
[23:13] <goodbyegravity> based*
[23:13] <rebel_kid> blaqlight: never had a printer on here so install cups and see if i can get to localhost:631
[23:13] <goodbyegravity> I had the same problem with my P4M800 P4 board
[23:13] <rooroo82> I've recreated cowsay in ruby, how would I make it so that I could type "blahblahblah" into console and my script would run
[23:13] <rooroo82> Without an alias obviously
[23:13] <Blaqlight> rebel_kid: it should/might be already
[23:13] <goodbyegravity> If you set that memory hole, the kernel doesn't have enough space to load
[23:13] <ScubaSam> could i get some help with something?   i am trying to put Ubuntu 8.04 on my portable hard drive using the steps givin at Pendrivelinux.com and when i come to step 14 it says to type "syslinux -sf /dev/sdf1" and when i do it says "this doesn't look like a valid FAT filesystem", I am completely new to linux and i have no clue what to do
[23:13] <DX> but busybox is bothering me so much. i really wanna install ubuntu cuz i m tired of winxp
[23:14] <Blaqlight> rebel_kid: try that address in firefox.
[23:14] <rebel_kid> blaqlight: whats the command for cups
[23:14] <Blaqlight> rebel_kid: if it is, the rest is entirely self explanatory.
[23:14] <TiredWolf> rooroo82: you need to put it into a directory that the $PATH variable lists. "echo $PATH". i suggest /usr/local/bin.
[23:14] <goodbyegravity> DX:  That's the only issue I had with installing Ubuntu; it might be something worth checking :)
[23:14] <DX> I dont see any mem. hope options
[23:14] <nickrud> DX, try http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=866882&highlight=busybox&page=2
[23:14] <rebel_kid> blaqlight: nvm its installed already
[23:14] <ScubaSam> anyone?
[23:14] <rooroo82> TiredWolf, so physically put the script there?
[23:14] <TiredWolf> rooroo82: you also need to have #!/usr/bin/ruby as the first line of your program, and make it executable using chmod +x filename.
[23:14] <Clint-> rooroo82, you need to make the script pico startprog.sh into /usr/local/bin then make your script then chmod +x script.ext
[23:14] <Blaqlight> rebel_kid: ok so the rest is self explanatory yes?
[23:14] <Clint-> ^^
[23:15] <Windsurfer619> (Q) Nautilus keeps leaking memory. Does anyone know a way I can killall nautilus whenever it starts to use more than 200 MB of ram?
[23:15] <ScubaSam> anyone hear what i said?
[23:15] <DX> Some ppl said to removew "quite splash" and add "all_generic_ide" I hv no idea what they r saying
[23:15] <TiredWolf> rooroo82: yes, of course. the system doesn't look for commands in every conceivable directory in your filesystem... only in /sbin, /bin, /usr/bin, and a couple of others (all listed if you type echo $PATH).
[23:15] <rooroo82> Ok I get that
[23:15] <rebel_kid> blaqlight: what device do i tell it it is
[23:15] <jockl> how can i save the file "modules"? (i have no root)
[23:15] <rooroo82> Sorry am I being unbelievably thick here?  I don't know, you got the printer :P
[23:16] <rooroo82> TiredWolf, I was reading Clint-'s reply too
[23:16] <TiredWolf> rooroo82: i mean, you can give it the file extension you want (including none), but ".sh" is generally used for shell scripts
[23:16] <nickrud> ScubaSam, did you make sure that sdf1 existed, and is a valid fat (old style windows) partition?
[23:16] <rooroo82> Yeah I know .sh
[23:16] <goodbyegravity> DX:  Could you paste the exact error somewhere?
[23:16] <rebel_kid> blaqlight: i have no idea what most of these options are, its a lexmark on a usb port
[23:16] <rooroo82> Ok I'll try it, 1 sec
[23:16] <oompa_loompa> any ideas yet?
[23:16] <ScubaSam> i did what the instructions said
[23:16] <ScubaSam> as i said
[23:16] <ScubaSam> im completely new to linux
[23:16] <goodbyegravity> DX:  http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/
[23:16] <rooroo82> It's just there's no specific command I do puts "Cow say what?" cowsay = gets
[23:16] <nickrud> DX, the link I gave you tells you how to go about adding all_generic_ide
[23:17] <Blaqlight> rebel_kid: lol good luck with that, some are supported,,, most are not. lexmark is mostly windows friendly :P
[23:17] <TiredWolf> rooroo82: well, is i read that correctly, Clint- is wrong. you definitely don't need to make a separate script to *start* your program, your program is perfectly capable of starting itself.
[23:17] <nickrud> ScubaSam, those instructions probably expect you to modify a bit, to match your system. For example, sdf1 is the first partition on the 6th mounted drive. You'd have to adjust that
[23:17] <Blaqlight> I need to know how to reset my gnome session settings/delete them.
[23:17] <rebel_kid> blaqlight: any idea on what device it might be, and whats a lin friendly printer
[23:17] <Windsurfer619> Nautilus keeps leaking memory. Does anyone know a way I can killall nautilus whenever it starts to use a lot of ram?
[23:17] <EugenMayer> how to debug the phc? i patched the kernel, but the phc settings seem not to affect the system. under  /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq i have the correct outputs, but the system does not even crash on a vid of 5
[23:18] <Blaqlight> rebel_kid: hp has its own libraries... linux ones :D
[23:18] <Softdel> Blaqlight: Lexmark is barely windows friendly :D
[23:18] <ScubaSam> so what exactly do i do
[23:18] <Blaqlight> Softdel: but even less so linux friendly...
[23:18] <ScubaSam> im a XP person so i dont really know anything about all this
[23:18] <nickrud> ScubaSam, since I don't know what all is on your system, what device the external is mounted as, I couldn't give you specifics.
[23:18] <Softdel> Blaqlight: It just doesn't work on Linux, along with Dell printers too (same system)
[23:19] <rooroo82> Ok so I put the ruby file in there
[23:19] <rooroo82> Now what?
[23:19] <goodbyegravity> Blaqlight: Try apt-get --reinstall gnome-session
[23:19] <Blaqlight> rebel_kid: HPLIP is all about hp printers working with CUPS.
[23:19] <getBoa> Hi y'all... Is it possible to install kdemod on ubuntu hardy ?!
[23:19] <TiredWolf> rooroo82: sudo chmod +x /usr/local/bin/filename
[23:19] <TiredWolf> rooroo82: and then make sure the line #!/usr/bin/ruby is the first line in your program.
[23:19] <Mark_vH> getting further with my wubi: 'Kernel Panic - not syncing: VFS: Unable to mount root fs on unknown-block(104,1)' ?!
[23:19] <rooroo82> Done
[23:20] <ScubaSam> um, its an external hard drive, 250 gb     right now its the only thing hooked up to it usb wise
[23:20] <Softdel> getBoa: Yeah, if it runs in KDE/Ubuntu/kubuntu it should work
[23:20] <Blaqlight> Softdel: funny, some dell systems come with ubuntu preinstalled... why wouldn't their printers support linux...
[23:20] <Clint-> TiredWolf,  I didin't tell him he needed to make a script to start it that was his question so please dont say someone is wrong unless you read the full question.
[23:20] <TiredWolf> rooroo82: now type the command name.
[23:20] <rooroo82> Yeah problem with that, it actually takes input first
[23:20] <Softdel> Blaqlight: Because their AIO's are based on the lexmark platform...
[23:20] <nickrud> getBoa, that looks like a specific modification of kde for the arch distribution, not for ubuntu
[23:20] <Softdel> Blaqlight: Hence why you cant add them to a linux order :P
[23:20] <DX> i checked that link but what does this mean "Tried booting with the all_generic_ide"
[23:21] <Blaqlight> lol thats foolish.
[23:21] <Mark_vH> hmm, and about the ramdisk, it says 'invalied compressed format (err=1)'
[23:21] <DX> i m not a coder lol
[23:21] <TiredWolf> Clint-, he asked "[00:15] <rooroo82> Hmm how could I get my program to create a new command on ubuntu?", and then explained further into "u
[23:21] <TiredWolf> [00:16] <rooroo82> I
[23:21] <TiredWolf> well, into what he said
[23:21] <redrebel> where do you set the fonts for gtk apps??
[23:21] <Clint-> HIs first question was i recreated a program in ruby how do i make a script to start it
[23:21] <adamb> Anyone know if its possible to have rsyncd, configured where a client can only upload files, and not download?
[23:21] <TiredWolf> Clint-: never mentioned making shell scripts to start things.
[23:21] <nickrud> DX, it means look at the bootoptions link on that page, and follow those instructions :) You're going to be adding some parameters to the boot
[23:21] <Softdel> nickrud: Yeah, you're right, archlinux specific.
[23:22] <Clint-> TiredWolf, he did before the 2nd time he asked but its fine
[23:22] <RussianPhysicsGu> Hi all, I turned on Ubuntu this morning to find that everything had reverted back to the settings that are default at install - any way to reverse this? Thanks
[23:22] <Blaqlight> HP is your best bet for linux supported printers.
[23:22] <DX> i did that and same problem
[23:22] <TiredWolf> Clint-: what did that question say exactly? i must have missed it
[23:22] <DX> i even tried that floppy: off command
[23:22] <m11> hello
[23:22] <rooroo82> No joy with it anyway
[23:23] <TiredWolf> rooroo82: i don't understand what's the problem with it taking input.
[23:23] <ScubaSam> well i only got 3 minutes till i have to get off
[23:23] <Blaqlight> goodbyegravity: its not the program 'gnome-session' thats the problem... its its settings store..
[23:23] <Clint-> TiredWolf, its not important m8 ive cleared screen alreaDY
[23:23] <rooroo82> Sorry I'm being a little vague
[23:23] <Clint-> as long as he is sorted all that matters
[23:23] <filthpig> hi, I want to use my mobile phone as a remote for my computer, and I found a nice howto on ubuntuforums. The only "problem" is that the program recommended in that guide is anyRemote, and it does not exist in the repos, and the developer only offers it as source code. Does anybody know if similar software is available through repos? I've tried searching, but found nothing yet..
[23:23] <DX> Who's running Ubuntu on Celeron?????????????
[23:23] <Windsurfer619> I am!
[23:23] <bXi> i think i have ubuntu on a celeron somewhere
[23:24] <rooroo82> Basically when you do ruby cow.rb it starts by printing a question. It then takes the response and uses that to echo the sentence the cow says
[23:24] <bobyada_> How do I play rmvb files?
[23:24] <TiredWolf> Clint-: i agree it's not important, but he never said that - i do have logs.
[23:24] <Blaqlight> DX: isn
[23:24] <rooroo82> So there's isn't a specific command per se
[23:24] <rooroo82> The script starts itself
[23:24] <Blaqlight> t one question mark [lenty :P
[23:24] <Dexikiix> how do i enable 3d acceleration?
[23:24] <DX> oh man :S
[23:24] <TiredWolf> rooroo82, you're merely running your Ruby program, no more no less. what did you instead want to achieve?
[23:24] <filthpig> DX, one question mark is enough, we still see it's a question
[23:24] <ScubaSam> well whatever ill try and come back tomorrow
[23:25] <DX> sorry about tht
[23:25] <ScubaSam> since no one could help today
[23:25] <rooroo82> TiredWolf, type something like "Moomake" and my ruby script would start
[23:25] <verynew> hey, i've written neat script (as nickrud said), put it into files system/bin, created launcher on desktop with command:[script_name], executed launcher and it said 'permission denied'. What the.. ?
[23:25] <ejer> rooroo82: have not been following too closely, but just put your script (with no file extension) in /usr/local/bin, then do sudo chmod +x /usr/local/bin/yourcowsayapp
[23:25] <theRealBall> ehm is there ext4 default FS?
[23:25] <bobyada_> How do I play .rmvb files?
[23:25] <ChryLimeade> filthpig, try searching google for anyRemote deb
[23:25] <TiredWolf> rooroo82: and it does, provided you called your script's filename "/usr/local/bin/Moomake"
[23:25] <Windsurfer619> Nautilus keeps leaking memory. Does anyone know a way I can killall nautilus whenever it starts to use a lot of ram?
[23:25] <timo> hi how do i know if I am running 64 bit
[23:25] <rooroo82> Ah got it!
[23:25] <Blaqlight> verynew: right click on the program and check its permissions, also if its in /usr/bin you don't have access without sudo/gksu
[23:26] <rooroo82> Sorry, I'd left the extension
[23:26] <nickrud> verynew, did you make the script executable?   chmod u+x ~/bin/scriptname
[23:26] <TiredWolf> rooroo82: extensions are ignored in Linux
[23:26] <ejer> verynew: it needs to have execution privileges
[23:26] <verynew> nickrud: no
[23:26] <Dexikiix> er...anyone?
[23:26] <TiredWolf> rooroo82: if you put one there, though, you'll have to always put it there.
[23:26] <TiredWolf> since it's merely a part of the filename like anything else
[23:26] <Dexikiix> !3d
[23:26] <Dexikiix> !3dacceleration
[23:26] <rooroo82> TiredWolf, yeah
[23:26] <rooroo82> Working perfectly now
[23:26] <kane77> timo, try "uname -a" and see if you have something like "x86_64" in the output
[23:26] <ejer> !nvidia | Dexikiix
[23:26] <timo> uname -a
[23:26] <rooroo82> So for this to happen on every system I need to make a .deb package?
[23:27] <TiredWolf> rooroo82: define "every system"
[23:27] <verynew> does ~/bin mean files_system/bin? cause i dont have /bin in my home directory
[23:27] <DX> please check http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=882411 that is the problem i m having
[23:27] <timo> UTC 2008 i686 GNU/Linux
[23:27] <timo> ?
[23:27] <Blaqlight> this can't be good, a huge thnderstorm in the desert...
[23:27] <timo> ohh no 24 bit
[23:27] <rooroo82> Any ubuntu system that cared to install the package
[23:27] <kane77> theRealBall, not really it's not yet ready, it's still in development stage...
[23:27] <TiredWolf> rooroo82: yes, you'd have to make a package. ubuntu packages are .deb.
[23:27] <rooroo82> yup
[23:28] <TiredWolf> !packaging > rooroo82
[23:28] <bobyada_> How do I play .rmvb files?
[23:28] <rooroo82> Ah thanks :)
[23:28] <iki> How to save a photo from 1.1MB to 150kB?
[23:28] <m11> i have problem with gproftd and joomla 1.5 cms , it seems it needs ftp layer to install corectly but it dont want accept proftpd user/pass and path in its settings. anyone have clu how to fix this ?
[23:28] <timo> I was about to say it runs great for 64 bit
[23:28] <Blaqlight> I need to reset my gnome settings so that it will completely load, right now its just a blank screen...
[23:28] <kane77> iki, make the resolution smaller and/or change the encoding quality
[23:28] <Mark_vH> wubi uses ramdisk. if you run wubi with 246 MiB of mem (instead of recommended 256 MiB) can that cause an 'Invalid compressed format (err=1)' error?
[23:29] <rooroo82> eek, looks complicated!
[23:29] <rooroo82> Let's get dug in
[23:29] <Blaqlight> Mark_vH: how did you end up with 246MB of ram?
[23:29] <goodbyegravity> Probably built-in video
[23:29] <iki> kane77: Is there any automatic way of doing that? I need a photo of exactly 150 kB?
[23:29] <Mark_vH> good question =)
[23:29] <TiredWolf> rooroo82: a bit. but it's much easier for a ruby script. except you have to find out which, of all the 200 pages of stuff you need to read into, is relevant to a Ruby program.
[23:29] <rooroo82> haha yeah
[23:29] <kane77> iki, not one I know of, sorry
[23:29] <rooroo82> Shouldn't be awful
[23:30] <rooroo82> I'll learn anyway
[23:30] <slammed87d21> anyone know much about amd processors?
[23:30] <Mark_vH> i'm running out of options though, i tried the normal cd, the alternative cd, and now wubi..and none of them seem to work for me
[23:30] <TiredWolf> rooroo82, you might want to look at the transcripts of the Open Week classes, the Packaging 101 class explains things in a bit more humane a manner.
[23:30] <Blaqlight> goodbyegravity: lol I use 128MB of built in video in RAM, it still reports 1GB of ram...
[23:30] <rooroo82> Will do
[23:30] <TiredWolf> !openweek > rooroo82
[23:30] <kane77> slammed87d21, you should rather ask your question...
[23:30] <iki> kane77: so just change resolution and somehow encoding in Gimp? Roger?
[23:30] <goodbyegravity> Blaqlight: Yeah, my laptop does that, but my old desktop reports the available memory I guess
[23:30] <rooroo82> Ah nice
[23:31]  * rooroo82 saves
[23:31] <slammed87d21> can you swap a amd 64 for a core2 duo?
[23:31] <goodbyegravity> Not in the same motherboard
[23:31] <Mark_vH> :/ and ubuntu installation was so painless on my other laptop...
[23:31] <Blaqlight> slammed87d21: lol the sockets are diffent..
[23:31] <goodbyegravity> But they're both 64-bit
[23:31] <bobyada_> How do I play .rmvb files?
[23:31] <verynew> nickrud: i typed ' chmod u+x ~bin/xtermscript' and received 'cannot change priviliges to `bin/xtermscript': operation not permitted'
[23:31] <slammed87d21> ok, how about a amd 64 and an amd 64x2?
[23:32] <kane77> iki, yes, I'm not sure if gimp has that but photoshop shows the size while you modify the quality setting
[23:32] <goodbyegravity> Hmm..
[23:32] <Blaqlight> slammed87d21: that all depends on the socket... but I doubt it.
[23:32] <kane77> slammed87d21, it depends on MB, but usually yes..
[23:32] <mrpockets> so my view in evolution used to be the main window, with the upper half listing all my messages and the lower half would display the specific highlited message
[23:32] <slammed87d21> thanks
[23:32] <mrpockets> but now its just one jiant window with a list of the messages
[23:32] <mrpockets> help?
[23:33] <Vooloo> I want to remove gnome-pilot, but why does it say it will also remove ubuntu desktop?!
[23:33] <kane77> Blaqlight, both 64 and 64 X2 use the same socket (AM2) so there should be no problem..
[23:33] <goodbyegravity> But there is also AM2+ and AM3
[23:33] <jay_> just started xchat in ubunto for the first time, how come i can not see the users in the room like mirc?
[23:33] <jay_> ubunt*
[23:33] <mrpockets> ...got it
[23:34] <mrpockets> but thanks anyway
[23:34] <goodbyegravity> jay_: Click the button on the left that says "1254 users"
[23:34] <georgy_28> Vooloo, : don't care, ubuntu-desktop is only a meta-package
[23:34] <goodbyegravity> Next to the text input
[23:34] <jay_> ahhhh.. i see thank you
[23:34] <Blaqlight> kane77: Im still using a AMD XP 1700 :P
[23:34] <verynew> it worked! i ticked 'let the program to be executed as a program' and it worked! yay ^_^ thank you guys!
[23:34] <jay_> no way to perm put them on display?
[23:34] <verynew> t@let the file
[23:34] <Vooloo> georgy_28: so Ihave no other apps that are dependent on ubuntu-desktop?
[23:35] <goodbyegravity> jay_:  Uhmmm..
[23:35] <kane77> goodbyegravity, AM2+ is backwards compatible with AM2
[23:35] <Mark_vH> anybody happens to have hardy running on Fujitsu Amilo L 6820?
[23:35]  * Blaqlight watches as verynew switches to slightlynew :D
[23:35] <goodbyegravity> Ah, I wasn't sure
[23:35] <goodbyegravity> jay_:  I don't think so, but there may be a version that implements this
[23:35] <georgy_28> Vooloo, : yep !
[23:35] <jay_> koversation does i think, but thats more for kubuntu right?
[23:35] <verynew> right, have to change nick ^_^, thanks again and bye, g2g
[23:36] <goodbyegravity> jay_: Yeah.. but I seem to remember xchat having a full userlist at one point
[23:36] <goodbyegravity> jay_: They may have taken the feature out
[23:36] <jay_> can i use a proxy with xchat? i dont see an option
[23:37] <kane77> goodbyegravity, according to wikipedia even AM3 processors will be able to run in AM2 motherboards..
[23:37] <kane77> (but not the other way around)
[23:37] <goodbyegravity> Have AMD started making quad-core Phenoms yet?  I'm a little behind the times
[23:37] <jay_> yes amd did from what i heard
[23:37] <goodbyegravity> jay_: I don't see one either, but there may be a plugin available
[23:37] <jay_> quad core phenoms, my firned claims to have one
[23:38] <goodbyegravity> I want to get a Q660(?) for the future, but they're so much more expensive than dual-cores
[23:38] <iki> kane77: i found them but i have to set the resolution in opening new file. Thanks!
[23:38] <goodbyegravity> 6600
[23:38] <jay_> yeah im running daul core AMD i am not rich eaither
[23:38] <goodbyegravity> And the Phenom boards had some flaw up until the latest ones, didn't they?
[23:38] <jay_> I seen in the new linux pro mag they are adding linux built in to the mother board
[23:38] <goodbyegravity> Just like my beautiful 7800GT that is doomed to die a fevered, flaming death.
[23:39] <goodbyegravity> Yeah, ASUS started that I think with Splashtop.
[23:39] <goodbyegravity> I *heart* ASUS.
[23:39] <jay_> buetiful
[23:39] <jay_> wow i cant beleive xchat does not let me go irc anonymous, no firewall / proxy settings for a socks 5?
[23:40] <Mica> Hi, I need help.  This is while I'm trying to install ubuntu.
[23:41] <jparishy_> Okay, I finally got Compiz-Fusion installed and running the way I like it, but it seems to have disabled my touchpad when I have it running, does anyone know of a fix for this?
[23:41] <Dexikiix> does 01:00.1 = PCI:1:0:1 ?
[23:41] <goodbyegravity> Mica:  Can you paste the contents of your /var/log/Xorg.0.log file to a page on http://pastebin.ubuntu.com ?
[23:41] <Mica> goodbyegravity: How can I access /var/log/Xorg.0.log ?
[23:42] <kane77> hmm.. now I'm thinking about buying new CPU.. thanx guys :(
[23:42] <jay_> is there some kind of issue with running TOR with ubuntu? via firefox?
[23:42] <goodbyegravity> From GNOME, you can hit Alt-F2 and type "gedit" into the run bar.
[23:42] <jparishy_> cat /var/log/Xorg.0.log
[23:42] <goodbyegravity> Or yeah, what jparishy_ said.
[23:42] <goodbyegravity> And from gedit you can just click Open and browse to it.
[23:42] <Blaqlight> ok so does anyone know how to reset my gnome settings... I am getting frustrated with it.
[23:42] <Mica> goodbyegravity: Where is "gnome" ? Sorry, I'm not good at this stuff.
[23:42] <theRealBall> what's the default filesystem to go with?
[23:43] <goodbyegravity> GNOME is just your desktop environment.
[23:43] <goodbyegravity> Alt-F2 is the keyboard shortcut for the application launcher or Run box.
[23:43] <jay_> i tried to install ubuntu server and could not figure out how to install gnome GUI :(
[23:43] <Mica> goodbyegravity: I don't _get_ to my desktop environment, I'm on Windows side now.
[23:43] <goodbyegravity> ...lol.
[23:43] <goodbyegravity> Sorry.
[23:43] <goodbyegravity> Yeah.
[23:43] <jay_> sudo apt -get install gnome did not work lol
[23:44] <jparishy_> install gnome-desktop
[23:44] <jparishy_> er
[23:44] <jparishy_> ubuntu-desktop
[23:44] <jay_> thats like the only command iknow so far besides cd .. and ls
[23:44] <jay_> lo
[23:44] <goodbyegravity> Uhm.. the easiest way might just be to load it onto a flash drive or something; you'd need network access without GNOME, and that takes a bit of voodoo.
[23:44] <jparishy_> apt-cache is always fun :P
[23:45] <goodbyegravity> When you get to the black screen, you should be able to press Alt-Ctrl-F2 or Alt-Ctrl-F3,4,5,6 and drop to a login prompt
[23:45] <jparishy_> you use 'apt-cache search <search_phrase>' to search through the available repos, very useful
[23:45] <RawSushi> how do you reset the settings to alsa mixer?
[23:45] <nickrud> gah, why do people always quit just before I finally google out the fix ;(
[23:45] <goodbyegravity> Or you can select the Recovery option in Ubuntu's bootloader and choose the login terminal there
[23:45] <jay_> I am switching from windows so this is all new, im still learning how to unzip and install a tar.gz file much diffrent from zip
[23:45] <nvrpunk> anyone know where evolution saves it's signatures?
[23:45] <nvrpunk> I get an error saying missing file/directory
[23:45] <nvrpunk> when i try to save
[23:45] <goldengold> how do i change server(network) with xCHAT gnome?
[23:45] <Mica> goodbyegravity: Don't tell me about the recovery option, I can't get to it. :P Trust me, I just came back from 30 minutes of looking for the moment to press esc to get it =l
[23:46] <jay_> thanks guys i will come back when its not as busy
[23:46] <goodbyegravity> It doesn't give you the option when your computer loads?
[23:46] <qr> goldengold: /server the.server.com
[23:46] <jparishy_> jay_, 'tar -xvf <tar_file>' will unzip your tar
[23:46] <jay_> goldengold type /server <servaname>
[23:46] <Mica> goodbyegravity: No, when I press esc when it tells me to, there is no option for recovery.
[23:46] <RawSushi> is it even possible to reset the alsa mixer settings?
[23:46] <goodbyegravity> That's weird.
[23:46] <jay_> example: /server irc.2600.net
[23:46] <goodbyegravity> But you should still be able to do the Alt-Ctrl-F2-6 bit when you see the black screen.
[23:47] <theRealBall> how's XFS for a default filesystem?
[23:47] <jay_> yuck i do not like xchat so far
[23:47] <goodbyegravity> Try BitchX if you're into masochism.
[23:47] <jay_> konversation is much better imo
[23:48] <Mica> goodbyegravity: I'm pretty sure I can, but I'd like to know what to do after I press Alt+Ctrl+F2 so that I don't have to check if it works then come back.
[23:48] <goodbyegravity> Yeah, from there you can check out that log file and see if there are some errors.  And you can set a fallback driver in your configuration.
[23:48] <Mica> goodbyegravity: A fallback driver..?
[23:49] <goodbyegravity> Yeah, the 'vesa' driver should work with just about anything.  It sounds like Xorg isn't picking up on your video card correctly.
[23:49] <Mica> goodbyegravity: I use Nvidia's drivers from their site.
[23:50] <geekishgeekguy> i'm sort of new to linux, but could someone tell me how to login as root
[23:50] <goodbyegravity> Well, switching to vesa is a quick way to see if it's the driver, but the log file will list every error.
[23:50] <gaintsura> Hey all, I've got some REALLY choppy video going on, I'm using HH, fglrx drivers. I get choppy video at a window on the desktop, no full screen, and web video is also very choppy, could anyone help me figure out what the problem is
[23:50] <tauren_> i just installed a new ubuntu 8.04 64bit desktop.  Never used 64bit before, but thought I'd give it a try.  Having lots of troubles getting java and eclipse installed and running.
[23:50] <goodbyegravity> You can also start X directly to see if it's the login manager that's the issue.
[23:51] <Mica> goodbyegravity: How can I do that?
[23:51] <tauren_> why would ia32-libs not be installed by default?
[23:51] <goodbyegravity> Once you drop down into the login terminal with Alt-Ctrl-F, you can type "startx" .
[23:51] <gaintsura> tauren_: not all apps are 64bit compatible
[23:51] <Mica> goodbyegravity: After I type "startx" what can I do?
[23:52] <LostChild1> So, I'm trying to get it so when I'm in xchat and I click a link it opens the page in a new tab in my current firefox session. Currently is just starts a new firefox session, without even going to the link in question. In my gconf-editor the url-handler for IRC says just "firefox" how do I fix this?
[23:52] <goodbyegravity> It should try to load X without the login manager, and GNOME should appear if that's the problem.
[23:52] <tauren_> gaintsura: i'm seeing that now...  do i really get any advantages with 64bit?
[23:52] <goodbyegravity> But it sounds like a driver issue.
[23:52] <goodbyegravity> It usually is.  :/
[23:52] <gaintsura> tauren_: speed, processing abilities
[23:52] <lokus> does anyone know of a newsreader that allows for the import of .nzb files? ive tried using Pan but it doesn't seem to import them
[23:52] <Mica> goodbyegravity: If it is a driver issue, how can I fix it?
[23:52] <gaintsura> tauren_: mostly quicker data xfer since you've got 32 more lines to the cpu
[23:53] <tauren_> gaintsura: but less options for software I can run
[23:53] <geekishgeekguy> when i insert my wireless card and boot it freezes and does not load
[23:53] <goodbyegravity> There are a thousand variables for that, depending on which card you're using.  Switching to the fallback driver will give you some insight, but fixing it can be difficult.
[23:53] <gaintsura> tauren_: currently, yes, that is slowly changing though
[23:53] <vnieto> Hi all
[23:53] <goodbyegravity> Groin-grabbingly difficult.
[23:53] <geekishgeekguy> cisco 350 series
[23:53] <raul_> Buenas
[23:54] <vnieto> in this moment when i use apt do an segmentation fault
[23:54] <gaintsura> tauren_: you MIGHT (don't quote me) be able to find a 32bit emulator of sorts, but I'm not too sure
[23:54] <tauren_> gaintsura:   ok, cool.  i found that there is 64 bit versions of java and eclipse, so i'm getting them installed.
[23:54] <dib_> how can I install Java6 sdk and java 3d?
[23:54] <LostChild1> So, I'm trying to get it so when I'm in xchat and I click a link it opens the page in a new tab in my current firefox session. Currently is just starts a new firefox session, without even going to the link in question. In my gconf-editor the url-handler for IRC says just "firefox" how do I fix this?
[23:54] <gaintsura> tauren_: I'm not a big fan of eclipse, I've been using bluefish for some time now, its lightweight and quick
[23:54] <slammed87d21> is there a version of ubuntu thats for laptops with wireless?
[23:55] <gaintsura> slammed87d21: any
[23:55] <goodbyegravity> slammed87d21: I think they all come with the same drivers.
[23:55] <goodbyegravity> What card are you using?
[23:55] <goodbyegravity> Card/chipset if you know it.
[23:55] <gaintsura> slammed87d21: you just need to find the correct drivers (either ndiswrapper or madwifi depending on the laptop wifi)
[23:55] <tauren_> gaintsura: i'll check out bluefish, never heard of it.  the thing that gets me the most is the error message when you try to run a non-64bit app.
[23:55] <geekishgeekguy> goodbyegravity: when i boot with recovery mode, it stops because some sort of key file is missing
[23:55] <Mica> goodbyegravity: So, should I go try to see if "startx" will work?
[23:55] <tauren_> gaintsura:  type ./eclipse and it says "file not found".  of course I set +x on it.
[23:55] <vnieto> Hi , I have a "segmentation fauld" in mu hardy with apt update
[23:55] <slammed87d21> how do you install madwifi?
[23:55] <goodbyegravity> Mica:  Yeah, you can, but you should thumb through the log file while ou have the chance.
[23:55] <vnieto> some help please
[23:55] <goodbyegravity> geekishgeekguy: What key file?  Does it say?
[23:56] <gaintsura> tauren_: its nice, I've seen a couple of syntax highlighting problems
[23:56] <mmap__> Greetings folks.
[23:56] <Mica> goodbyegravity: Okay.
[23:56] <gaintsura> slammed87d21: download madwifi drivers, make && sudo make install
[23:56] <mmap__> I would like to preface my question by stating that I have spent a considerable amount of time researching this before asking :-)
[23:56] <joejoecircusboy> mmap__: Good start :)
[23:57] <mmap__> I just purchased an MP3 player and Ubuntu (8.04 hardy) does not recognize it when I plug it in
[23:57] <goodbyegravity> Does it say PlaysForSure on the box?
[23:57] <mmap__> by "does not recognize it" I mean, it doesn't even create a SCSI device in /dev
[23:57] <geekishgeekguy> i forget, but the only way to bypass it is to press ctrl-alt-del, but it skips stuff and gnome doesn't load
[23:57] <Dark_Shadow> hi, i have used a proxy called freegate and after closing it i have a probleme when i tried to do the updates it said that he is unable to contact the host <IP_ADDRESS>:8580
[23:57] <Dark_Shadow> what can i do?
[23:57] <Dark_Shadow> plz help me
[23:57] <goodbyegravity> Well, you can do the same thing I told Mica to load GNOME directly:  type "startx" after you login.
[23:57] <tauren_> gaintsura: thanks for your help
[23:57] <joejoecircusboy> mmap__: What happens in 'dmesg' on connect?
[23:57] <Oldrie^Jimmy> I just downloaded emilnes deb package and isntalled it and Its not showing up. Can someone help me plz? Its an NES Emulator for Linux.
[23:58] <mmap__> dmesg just states: [276580.910300] usb 3-1: new full speed USB device using uhci_hcd and address 5
[23:58] <mmap__> [276581.076991] usb 3-1: configuration #1 chosen from 1 choice
[23:58] <geirha> mmap__: Is it a UMS device? USB Mass Storage Device? Not all mediaplayer are that, some use proprietary protocols.
[23:58] <dib_> is it possible to get java3d sdk/api through at-get?
[23:58] <mmap__> and that's all
[23:58] <timothywcrane> are there by any change some ubuntu core-dev in here? I have 2 fixes for the repos concerning Sauerbraten. (It cannot get futher updates without these fixes)
[23:58] <mmap__> incidentally, I'm already using sda as my primary disk (I have a SCSI HDD)
[23:58] <geekishgeekguy> even in recovery mode, nothing seemsto work
[23:58] <slammed87d21> gaintsura, do you mind if i pm you about this?
[23:58] <mmap__> So only /dev/sda and it's partitions show up
[23:58] <joejoecircusboy> mmap__: does it show up in 'lsusb' ?
[23:58] <TiredWolf> timothywcrane: why don't you post them as bugreports with attached patches into launchpad?
[23:58] <goodbyegravity> mmap__: Some MP3 players are built to use Windows' connectivity; they don't show up as physical devices.
[23:59] <Dark_Shadow> please help me
[23:59] <mmap__> but it did create some devices I've never seen before in /dev: crw-rw---- 1 root root 254, 0 2008-08-07 15:51 usbdev3.5_ep00
[23:59] <mmap__> (etc)
[23:59] <timothywcrane> they are there.
[23:59] <Dark_Shadow> please ! ! !
[23:59] <goodbyegravity> Dark_Shadow: It's trying to grab the updates from your own computer.  There's a setting error somewhere.
[23:59] <timothywcrane> just begging...
[23:59] <mmap__> lsusb (was getting to that) shows the device: Bus 003 Device 005: ID 10d6:2300 Actions Semiconductor Co., Ltd
[23:59] <Oldrie^Jimmy> I just downloaded emilnes deb package and isntalled it and Its not showing up. Can someone help me plz? Its an NES Emulator for Linux.
[23:59] <joejoecircusboy> mmap__: What's the make/model of the player?
[23:59] <TiredWolf> timothywcrane: few chances there's any core dev here reading right now
[23:59] <mmap__> The player is a 4GB memorex mp3 player, the MMP8565C
