[15:08] <raboof> when I do 'dhclient eth1', it seems to run, but I don't see any DHCP packets in ethereal
[15:08] <trypto> can someone help me?
[15:08] <raboof> what could be the problem?
[15:09] <[maurice]> hello
[15:09] <[maurice]> can someone say my nick
[15:09] <dulak> maty: try modprobe raid1
[15:09] <dulak> maty: then check lsmod and see if raid1 is listed
[15:10] <Marsjanin> [maurice]: what? :D
[15:10] <Vinceman> ik ben gekickt uit offtopic, ik ga nu hier zieken
[15:10] <irm> Vinceman: This is an english speaking channel.
[15:10] <dulak> maty: it's raid0 my bad
[15:11] <Marsjanin> [maurice] I think it's French and I don't speak French, and got terrible accent in French-like words :)
[15:11] <paul68> BlueEagle: are you awake?
[15:11] <_pirinto_> jrib: it didn't work
[15:11] <_pirinto_> but when I did a mount -a as root afterwards it mounted as usual
[15:12] <[maurice]> how can i enable system beep?
[15:12] <jrib> _pirinto_: did you get errors?  (before you said it was saying the device did not exist)
[15:12] <_pirinto_> and the line in /etc/fstab was:
[15:12] <_pirinto_> UUID=46a17a48-30b1-42c4-b90b-0070338bdfcf       /media/usbdisk  ext3    defaults,errors=remount-ro 0       0
[15:12] <amriedle> [maurice]: its enabled by default did you disable it
[15:12] <magcius> [maurice], echo "\a" should do it
[15:12] <[maurice]> no, im assuming i dont have one then
[15:12] <irm> Can anyone identify what font this is: http://kerneled.org/projects/elf/49334.png
[15:13] <magcius> or not...
[15:13] <RhysU1> Any recommendations for a graphical GNU info reader?
[15:13] <_pirinto_> jrib: where should I check syslog or messages in /var/log
[15:13] <Phlogi> why is openoffice3 not added to current release?
[15:13] <jrib> magcius: you need echo -e
[15:13] <jrib> _pirinto_: both I guess.  I don't know offhand
[15:14] <magcius> jrib, thanks
[15:14] <_pirinto_> jrib: ok, I'll chck
[15:14] <Frogging101> Sound isn't working since I upgraded to Ubuntu 8.10. The devices are set to ALSA, sound isn't muted, the system detects my sound card, and it worked before the update and external amplifier is unchecked. How do I get it working?
[15:15] <[maurice]> anyone know why it says i dont have the required gtk theme installed when i go to the theme switcher?
[15:16] <adminuser> A4FHYGFVO,M  UVVRTRDSX
[15:16] <maty> dulak: i did the probe and checked and raid1 is there
[15:16] <jrib> adminuser: please write english
[15:16] <Frogging101> Sound isn't working since I upgraded to Ubuntu 8.10. The devices are set to ALSA, sound isn't muted, the system detects my sound card, and it worked before the update and external amplifier is unchecked. How do I get it working?
[15:17] <dulak> maty: linear is raid0, so do it for raid0
[15:17] <maty> ok done
[15:18] <nikin> hy
[15:18] <maty> raid0 is there
[15:19] <Frogging101> Sound isn't working since I upgraded to Ubuntu 8.10. The devices are set to ALSA, sound isn't muted, the system detects my sound card, and it worked before the update and external amplifier is unchecked. How do I get it working?
[15:19] <dulak> maty: ok check for /proc/mdstat
[15:20] <maty> command not found
[15:20] <Ione> Hey all
[15:20] <jrib> _pirinto_: it might be that usb isn't setup before the things in fstab are mounted.  If you don't put your usb in fstab and login it should be automatically mounted though.  Is there a reason you don't want to do this?
[15:20] <Ione> does anyone know if it's possible to assign custom functions to the keypresses of an old USB keyboard?
[15:20] <dulak> maty: it's not a command: cat /proc/mdstat
[15:21] <unop> Ione, give us an example of what you'd like to do.
[15:21] <nikin> i Have a Bt878 based TV tuner, and i bought a Swann Outdoor Color Camera and hooked it up on the Composite ... It works fine Execept it has no color... I have tried all the settings of PAL and NTSC and Pal-Nc works the best but no color is present
[15:21] <cricido> i tried to install ubuntu eee version bua it stoped
[15:21] <cricido> i tried to install ubuntu eee version but it stopped at the first screen
[15:21] <_pirinto_> jrib: I had it like that before (I use dapper btw) but I didn't want to use X anymore so instead for it automounting when it entered GNOME I tried to add it to my fstab
[15:22] <Ione> for example have the 'g' key on my second keyboard launch gedit but keep my main keyboard functioning normally
[15:22] <maty> dulak: ok done, says personaliites : [raid1] [raid0] unused devices <none>
[15:22] <Frogging101> Sound isn't working since I upgraded to Ubuntu 8.10. The devices are set to ALSA, sound isn't muted, the system detects my sound card, and it worked before the update and external amplifier is unchecked. How do I get it working?
[15:22] <nikin> Here in Hungary the TV norm is PAL-GB so i thought maybe the Camera and the Tuner are Incompatible (cam is PAL (AU UK))
[15:22] <dulak> maty: ok now see if there are any md* devices in /dev
[15:23] <maty> dulak: nope
[15:23] <dulak> maty: not sure how to get it working then, without mdadm
[15:23] <nikin> cricido: Grab a normal ubuntu install hook up the wired network, download the kernel from array dot org
[15:23] <cricido> if will iinstall ubuntu
[15:23] <cricido> normal?
[15:23] <SafeWay> hi how to reset viritual screen settings?
[15:23] <lee_1> whats the difference between the linux-generic and linux-image-x.x.x.x-generic packages?
[15:24] <nikin> cricido: if you have a 900 The liveCD will be ok.. If a 700 i would do a Minimal Console Install
[15:24] <Dai> is there a solution for the problem : "can't write any email on hotmail with last firefox and last (k)ubuntu ?"
[15:24] <cricido> i have 700
[15:24] <maty> dulak: im installing mdadm
[15:25] <nikin> normal = not the eee versionű
[15:25] <Ione> not possible?
[15:25] <Frogging101> Sound isn't working since I upgraded to Ubuntu 8.10. The devices are set to ALSA, sound isn't muted, the system detects my sound card, and it worked before the update and external amplifier is unchecked. How do I get it working?
[15:25] <_pirinto_> jrib: the weird thing i s that running mount -a solves it all, maybe I should add that to crontab with a @reboot flag
[15:25] <cricido> yes i undestand
[15:25] <unop> Ione, i'm not sure how that would be done - as far as i know, xorg can only support one keyboard per display. even if you were able to have multiple keyboards, having xorg differentiate keystrokes from the second keyboard would be difficult.
[15:25] <nikin> I had a 700 i installed a minimal console isstem with 8.04 Disc
[15:26] <cricido> ok
[15:26] <nikin> Connected to the network thru the cable
[15:26] <nikin> went to array.org, got the repos there installed the eee kernel
[15:26] <cricido> now i download ubuntu normal iso
[15:26] <nikin> restarted
[15:26] <nikin> and made some tweaks also available on the website.
[15:27] <nikin> cricido: the 8.04?
[15:27] <maty> dulak: will it work in live cd?
[15:27] <dulak> maty: I don't know, never done it from a livecd
[15:27] <jrib> _pirinto_: here's how one person got around it: http://blog.symbiotic-development.com/2008/05/05/mounting-removable-drives-at-boot-in-eeexubuntu/ there must be a better way though
[15:27] <cricido> i have only ubuntu-eee-8.04.1.iso
[15:27] <Ione> unop: It doesn't need to be parsed as 'keystrokes' though does it not in the same way a keybord would do, it would function more like a game controller
[15:27] <maty> dulak: seems to be working fine
[15:27] <Ione> anyway it was just an idea i had no idea of the tecnical limitations
[15:27] <cricido> i tried to install ubuntu eee version but it stopped at the first screen
[15:27] <nikin> cricido: but do not download 8.10
[15:28] <nikin> it has no support yet AFAIK
[15:28] <maty> dulak: i mean installing fine
[15:28] <maty> dulak: ok installed
[15:28] <jvm_> hi. my ubuntu 8.10 forgets it's ethernet configuration with every restart. why?
[15:28] <dulak> maty: mdadm --detail --scan --verbose
[15:28] <nikin> i dont know the eee version sorry... cant help you installing that
[15:28] <Ultrahex> when i am booting into Ubuntu 8.10 i get a black screen and video input turns off (note i can rum gdm/x properly from recovery mode just fine)
[15:28] <BlueEagle> dulak: Have you set it up in /etc/network/interfaces ?
[15:28] <Frogging101> hello
[15:29] <cricido> wait go i have to download normal ubuntu iso 8.04?
[15:29] <cricido> is it correct?
[15:29] <jeromeg> hello
[15:29] <BlueEagle> Ultrahex: Check that your monitor can handle the settings in xorg.conf
[15:29] <Ultrahex> BlueEagle: will do brb
[15:29] <maty> dulak: ok, did that was it suppose to output anything
[15:29] <nikin> cricido: yes i believe
[15:29] <Ultrahex> exit
[15:29] <jeromeg> anyone running ubuntu on amd64 here ? I need three seconds of your time to test build something ?
[15:29] <_pirinto_> jrib: thanks I'll do some reading there, thanks again
[15:30] <dulak> maty: it should show your raid array
[15:30] <nikin> what kind of eee do you have?
[15:30] <Phlogi> why is openoffice3 not added to current release?
[15:30] <BlueEagle> Ultrahex: If you're using an older monitor you might have to specify the sync ranges.
[15:30] <jrib> _pirinto_: he just adds mount commands to /etc/rc.local
[15:30] <maty> dulak: nothing happens
[15:30] <unop> Ione, well, the idea is you need a program to act on the input coming from the second keyboard - and as far as xorg goes, that input is keystrokes - but xorg can't tell if a keypress like G comes from the first or second keyboard.
[15:30] <dulak> maty: it's not seeing that array at all
[15:31] <arpu> hello
[15:31] <magcius> Yo.
[15:31] <arpu> i do a  update from 8.04 -> 8.10 sevrer with sudo do-release-upgrade
[15:31] <maty> dulak: how do i fix?
[15:31] <Dai> is there a solution for the problem : "can't write any email on hotmail with last firefox and last (k)ubuntu ?"
[15:31] <arpu> at the beginning the program said i need to run liloconf + /bin/lilo ?
[15:32] <lee_1> damnit why does the minimal installer keep throwing errors at me because it fails to install the kernel!?
[15:32] <nikin> unop: there was a project about running 4 monitors keyboards and mice on one computer for 4 users... dont know much about it.. but maybe worth a googleing
[15:32] <lee_1> dpkg returned error code 1
[15:32] <dulak> maty: start over and reinstall, I am not sure why it won't recognize the array
[15:32] <lee_1> what does that even mean?
[15:32] <dulak> maty: raid0 sucks like that, any error on either disk jacks both
[15:32] <unop> Phlogi, I believe OO.org 3 is currently beta
[15:32] <RinTinTigger> programs dont minimize to the top panel anymore...can someone help?
[15:32] <maxbaldwin> lee_1: what were you using before?
[15:32] <lee_1> maxbaldwin: nothing
[15:32] <BlueEagle> lee_1: Did you check the md5sum to verify that the download isn't corrupt?
[15:32] <arpu> can i rebbot now ? without lilo ?
[15:33] <Phlogi> unop: nope, not at all
[15:33] <lee_1> BlueEagle: this is the minimal install cd
[15:33] <adobongkangkong> how can I make virtualbox detect my usb devices in my ubuntu hardy host. I followed instruction on editing stuff in /etc/init.d but still unable to mount any usb devices.
[15:33] <mercutio22> I am reposting a question here from yesterday, please don't get insane at me. I think I can be more specific this time. Gparted won't show my partitions because my partition table is bad and some partitions are laying off the disk. http://paste.ubuntu.com/72395/
[15:33] <maxbaldwin> lee_1: you weren't using ubuntu before?
[15:33] <maty> dulak: what you mean?
[15:33] <unop> nikin, that's multi-seat xorg - not really what he wants, he's on a single seat configuration wanting to use two keyboards
[15:33] <unop> nikin, anyway, he's gone.
[15:33] <lee_1> maxbaldwin: no, this is on a machine with what (was) a blank HDD
[15:33] <BlueEagle> lee_1: Never mind. I mis-read you.
[15:33] <erkin> hi, i have a newly bought fujitsu siemens laptop and cant connect to wireless networks on ubuntu. i need help
[15:33] <arpu> the grub menu list shows me only
[15:33] <lee_1> its failed on both linux-generic and linux-image-2.6.27-7-generic kernels
[15:33] <RinTinTigger> can anyone help? Programs dont minimzie to the top panel anymore (like amarok)
[15:33] <arpu> title           Ubuntu 8.04, kernel 2.6.24-16-server
[15:34] <dulak> maty: when you stick the two drives together into 1, any error on either disk makes the entire array bad, which means you double your chance of data loss for no increase in performance
[15:34] <maxbaldwin> lee_1: Maybe get ubuntu + gnome and strip what you don't need. like apt-get remove gdm. probably won't help if it's a kernel error.
[15:34] <mercutio22> is there a way to fix it? I know they are starting at the proper cylinders, its just the end thats messed up
[15:34] <BlueEagle> erkin: in a terminal run `lspci` and identify which kind of wireless network adapter you have.
[15:34] <nikin> unop: i see... i was just thinking on how they separated the keyboards in that project... :)
[15:34] <kampret> hi
[15:34] <lee_1> maxbaldwin: i dont want to do that, i'd rather build a system up than cut one down
[15:34] <adobongkangkong> how can I make virtualbox detect my usb devices in my ubuntu hardy host. I followed instruction on editing stuff in /etc/init.d but still unable to mount any usb devices. Do i need linux headers installed? If so which one?
[15:34] <lee_1> why the heck is it failing at the kernel, its like the last task in installing the base
[15:34] <froduntu> jrib, I solved it, just wanted to relay, turns out I didn't have pulse audio
[15:34] <erkin> BlueEagle, 04:00.0 Ethernet controller: Atheros Communications Inc. AR242x 802.11abg Wireless PCI Express Adapter (rev 01)
[15:35] <BlueEagle> !atheros
[15:35] <nikin> RinTinTigger: you have a program list there ?
[15:35] <maxbaldwin> lee_1: can't help you, sorry.
[15:35] <lee_1> :(
[15:35] <mercutio22> so, is there a way to take away that last cylinder from partitions 4 and 7?
[15:35] <adobongkangkong> !virtualbox
[15:35] <Dai> is there a solution for the problem : "can't write any email on hotmail with last firefox and last (k)ubuntu ?"
[15:35] <froduntu> jrib, I'm talking about my previous issue not being able to log into ubuntu
[15:35] <jeromeg> anyone running ubuntu on amd64 here ? I need three seconds of your time to test build something
[15:35] <unop> nikin, well, they separate each set of devices to a particular display and run multiple displays.
[15:35] <BlueEagle> mercutio22: gparted should be able to do that iirc.
[15:35] <jrib> froduntu: ah, right.  I forgot about you :)  Glad you got it
[15:36] <rien-ne-va-plus> does anyone here have experience with tvtime?
[15:36] <NoVARaif> morning all - I just recently upgraded my home server from 8.04 LTS to 8.10, and now my samba shares and printers are unavailable to either my Windoze or Mac boxes....  anyone up to sharing some troubleshooting pointers?
[15:36] <jrib> froduntu: in the future use the person's nick when responding to questions
[15:36] <unop> Phlogi, http://news.softpedia.com/news/How-To-Install-OpenOffice-org-3-0-in-Ubuntu-8-10-96449.shtml
[15:36] <Tetracomm> jrib: Someone told me to.
[15:36] <rien-ne-va-plus> for some reason it seems to not work with my tv-card, even though its flawlessly detected
[15:36] <maty> dulak: how do i fix?
[15:36] <froduntu> jrib, that's ok you were really busy, at the time
[15:36] <BlueEagle> erkin: Read the link that ubottu provided and hollor back when you've got a more spesific idea as to where it fails. :)
[15:36] <froduntu> jrib, so I just left quietly... but thanks
[15:37] <erkin> thx BlueEagle
[15:37] <jrib> Tetracomm: well I don't see why
[15:37] <lee_1> argh, now its going red and telling me it failed to run dpkg --force-depends --install var/cache/apt/archives/libc6_2.8~somestuff.deb
[15:37] <mercutio22> BlueEagle> gparted can't see my partitions, it gives an error "Can't have a partition outside the disk!
[15:37] <lee_1> this is a rather problematic cd
[15:37] <maty> dulak: im going to put the hardrives back into the network thing and see if it works :\
[15:37] <nikin> rien-ne-va-plus: what about other TV programs? motv xawtv?
[15:37] <NoVARaif> I've looked at the samba logs, reinstalled samba after backing up my smb.conf, and am not sure where to go from here?
[15:38] <Tetracomm> jrib: I really want to install some plugins and GnuSound. :(
[15:38] <rien-ne-va-plus> nikin: i have problems getting xawtv to work, is there a channelscan somewhere?
[15:38] <lassesandberg> hello guys.. im about to use distro upgrade thingy to upgrade to 8.04 (from 7.10).. im wondering is it possible to set up a system restore point or something, anything short of taking a snapshot backup of the entire partition.. its because last i tried upgrading like taht ubuntu went haywire and had to reinstall, and start from scratch, would hate for that to happen again
[15:39] <kri> hi, i have to open alsamixer with the command 'alsamixer -D hw:0' to get everything up, what do i have to do so i get the same (master + PCM etc not just master) when i just hit 'alsamixer'?
[15:39] <lee_1> so it fails installing the kernel, then if I try to install again it fails at libc6
[15:39] <maxbaldwin> lassesandberg: backup ~/ then do it.
[15:39] <trypto> hey guys
[15:39] <lee_1> ok, how much space is required for the ubuntu "base" system
[15:39] <trypto> is there someone who's a BLOGGER?
[15:39] <maxbaldwin> hello trypto
[15:39] <jpds> !ot | trypto
[15:40] <nikin> rien-ne-va-plus: not in xawtv but there is one in motv
[15:40] <lassesandberg> maxbaldwin wont that only backup my user? are you sure if i then went back and overwrote that my entire ubuntu system would restore to 7.10 as it is now?
[15:40] <rien-ne-va-plus> nikin: where do i get motv?
[15:41] <nikin> rien-ne-va-plus: sudo apt-get install motv
[15:41] <maty> dulak: do you know general linux
[15:41] <maxbaldwin> lassesandberg: if you have settings you want to keep, backup ~/. if you don't care, and have certain files, back them up to a flash disk or something.
[15:41] <icqnumber> is there a way to activate input methods options in firefox, like it is for other gtk applications?
[15:41] <Ultrahex> BlueEagle: so i checked my xorg.conf it seems to be fine, i even added the resolution settings that were missing but still the same thing happens
[15:41] <trypto> guys i'm looking for COLLABORATORS to keep a BLOG UP
[15:41] <ActionParsnip1> !ot | trypto
[15:41] <rien-ne-va-plus> nikin: negativ, cant find the package
[15:42] <lassesandberg> maxbaldwin: its not just settings, its the entire system.. if my distro upgrade fails and ubuntu completely screws up and wont start, will my personal user settings make any difference?
[15:42] <bazhang> trypto, try in #ubuntu-offtopic not here
[15:42]  * NoVARaif wonders if there is anyone who could help with his samba troubleshooting efforts?
[15:43] <nikin> rien-ne-va-plus: ok then lets fall back to tvtime
[15:43] <ActionParsnip1> NoVARaif: sup?
[15:43] <maty> is it possible to change the owner of a file if your the owner but you dont have permissions to change it:\
[15:43] <ActionParsnip1> NoVARaif: samba is easy
[15:43] <Ultrahex> maty: root/sudo
[15:43] <nikin> rien-ne-va-plus: so what do you experience in tvtime?
[15:43] <BlastuR> hey.. i have a dual monitor setup, (nvidia based card).. it seems to work fine, i have 2 desktops. The only problem is, when i start programs on screen 2, they appear on Screen 1 .. and i can't move them back to screen 2 (they just move to workspace #2 of screen 1)
[15:44] <ActionParsnip1> maty: sudo chown <new owner> <file>
[15:44] <unop> maty, only root can give files away like that.
[15:44] <NoVARaif> morning ActionParsnip1 !  I upgraded from 8.04 LTS to 8.10 last week....  Samba seems to have lost it's mind after working previously for a couple versions of ubuntu
[15:44] <maty> Ultrahex: I cant
[15:44] <BlastuR> anyone know how to configure ubuntu to start programs in the "focused" screen instead of always screen #1?
[15:44] <maty> i cant access root
[15:44] <rien-ne-va-plus> nikin: i open the software and start a channel scan, but no channels are detected, i already tried a different cable, but that doesnt seem to be the problem
[15:44] <NoVARaif> ActionParsnip1: Now, my shares and printers are unavailable to my Windoze and Mac clients
[15:44] <Ultrahex> maty: why can you not run sudo or use root >?
[15:44] <ActionParsnip1> unop: can the original owner of the file transfer ownership?
[15:44] <mdddddd> !ops
[15:44] <rien-ne-va-plus> nikin: the card is detected as SAA7134 compatible, its a typhoon tv tuner rds
[15:44] <maty> su: BusyBox binary has insufficient rights to set proper GID for applet!
[15:44] <ActionParsnip1> NoVARaif: can i see your /etc/samba/smb.conf
[15:44] <icqnumber> is there a way to activate input methods options in firefox, like it is for other gtk applications?
[15:44] <jrib> mdddddd: yes?
[15:45] <nikin> rien-ne-va-plus: did you check the input settings? PAL SECAM NTSC and theese things?
[15:45] <unop> ActionParsnip1, not as far as i know - only the super user can do that.
[15:45] <nikin> rien-ne-va-plus: which country are you in?
[15:45] <ActionParsnip1> unop: makes sense though
[15:45] <jrib> techman224: describe your actual issue
[15:45] <mrkris> anyone here have issues getting rmagick to install on ubuntu 8.10 server ?
[15:45] <unop> ActionParsnip1, yea, but some other unixes allow that tho - and you can see why that'd be allowed.
[15:45] <NoVARaif> ActionParsnip1: Sure, I just can't recall the name of the site where I can post things temporarily? lol
[15:45]  * NoVARaif slurps his coffee
[15:45] <ActionParsnip1> !paste | NoVARaif
[15:45] <thiebaude> hi actionparsnip
[15:45] <Ultrahex> I am still fighting with the issue that Ubuntu 8.10 boots into a black screen... i can only boot into Ubuntu from recovery mode manually and everything for the most part works, any ideas
[15:46] <ActionParsnip1> hi thiebaude
[15:46] <rien-ne-va-plus> nikin: so i cannot figure out, where the problem is, whether tvtime has problems with the card, the card with the system, or the card with the broadcaster. ive set PAL europe, there is not much more settings to make. i tried the tvtime configurator, which doesnt have more settings either
[15:46] <NoVARaif> ActionParsnip1: back inna few
[15:46] <Markooki> is there any particular problem with downloading ubuntu or xubuntu? i've been trying to download it many times, firefox, gwget, bittorrent, it always fails. ubuntu servers are over-used?
[15:46] <lee_1> what are the kernel option differences in linux-image-2.whatever-generic and *-server?
[15:46] <Ultrahex> Markooki: try a differnt mirror
[15:46] <nikin> rien-ne-va-plus: did you try other settings?
[15:47] <rien-ne-va-plus> nikin: i tried the tvtime-scanner as well, which didnt detect any signals, so id like to test out whether tvtime is linked correctly to the card
[15:47] <Markooki> but why dont they use torrents?
[15:47] <Ultrahex> Markooki: there is torrents for Ubuntu
[15:47] <nikin> rien-ne-va-plus: france is SECAM
[15:47] <rien-ne-va-plus> nikin: well yeah ill try some out... really not much to mess around with
[15:47] <ActionParsnip1> lee_1: its a server kernel more optomised for server use (background processes more attended would make sense)
[15:47] <rien-ne-va-plus> nikin: thanks, but im in germany ;)
[15:47] <lee_1> ActionParsnip1: ok
[15:47] <NoVARaif> ActionParsnip1: http://paste.ubuntu.com/72400/
[15:48] <nikin> rien-ne-va-plus: Germany is PAL BG  :D
[15:48] <Bupsss> hi, is it possible to do a make in a specific dir?
[15:48] <Markooki> Ultrahex: yes, but there are also connection exceptions :'-(
[15:48] <Bupsss> i mean creating the files in a folder i want
[15:49] <nikin> rien-ne-va-plus: did you try to hook up a video or a DVD on it?
[15:49] <rien-ne-va-plus> nikin: yeah so thats my current setting...are there other tools to at least test the tv-card? like a raw scanner like it exists for dvb-t ?
[15:49] <icqnumber> is there a way to activate input methods options in firefox, like it is for other gtk applications?
[15:49] <Ultrahex> Markooki: then there must be something wrong with your system/internet cause i am fine grabing packages etc
[15:49] <kat> Hey everyone. I have NVIDIA GeForce 8600M GT, and just upgraded to 8.10 and now it doesn't work. Im in "low resoution mode". How do I make it work?
[15:49] <eternau74> hi, does somebody know how to get the ip of a certain website?
[15:49] <eternau74> there was a command but I can remember it
[15:49] <ActionParsnip1> NoVARaif: looks nice, id add "valid users = <username>" to each. and also add "invalid users = root" for security
[15:49] <lee_1> eternau74: hostname domain.com
[15:49] <rien-ne-va-plus> nikin: i have another tv-card (dvb-t) and a dvd drive plugged to the system, but i want to watch via the analog tv-card
[15:49] <unop> eternau74, dig  domainname.com
[15:49] <lee_1> host*!!
[15:49] <lee_1> not hostname xD
[15:50] <ActionParsnip1> NoVARaif: have you ran sudo smbpasswd <user name>
[15:50] <mooded> kat, go to system->system settings->hardware drivers or smth like that. there install nvidia proprietary drivers (177 series)
[15:50] <eternau74> there we go, thanks =)
[15:50] <kri> where is the bashrc in ubuntu?
[15:50] <icqnumber> is there a way to activate input methods options in firefox, like it is for other gtk applications?
[15:50] <NoVARaif> ActionParsnip1: I'll do that .. brb
[15:50] <Markooki> Ultrahex: i don't think it's the same servers for images, as packages.. seems most servers are running heavy since the release of 8.10
[15:50] <maxbaldwin> kri: ~/.bashrc
[15:50] <sloucher> just ping it eternau74 "ping yahoo.com"
[15:50] <cricido> where can i find eee ubuntu version ?
[15:50] <lee_1> sloucher: but host is designed for that job specificially
[15:50] <unop> Bupsss, it depends, do you want to build the source in a certain directory or install the compiled binaries to a specific target directory?
[15:50] <maxbaldwin> sloucher: ping www.yahoo.com. I think it needs the www
[15:51] <kat> mooded, i've done that.. but when i restart it says it doesnt work
[15:51] <bazhang> !eeepc
[15:51] <ActionParsnip1> NoVARaif: also make sure you can ping between the systems by name and ip for completenesss
[15:51] <Bupsss> unop, i want to build the source in a certain directory.... i dont want to overwrite the files in my system
[15:51] <unop> maxbaldwin, yahoo.com and www.yahoo.com probably point to different hosts - both are valid
[15:51] <bazhang> icqnumber, quick-locale-switcher
[15:51] <kat> mooded, it says this driver is activated and currently in use....  ? but it's not
[15:51] <maxbaldwin> unop, okay.
[15:52] <icqnumber> bazhang, what is this
[15:52] <maxbaldwin> wasn't sure, I thought web sites needed the www.
[15:52] <mooded> kat, how did you get the info that its not in use ?
[15:52] <bazhang> icqnumber, its a ff plugin to change input method
[15:52] <kat> mooded, when i restarted
[15:52] <mooded> kat, do a "glxinfo| grep -i direct"
[15:52] <icqnumber> !info quick-locale-switcher hardy
[15:53] <bazhang> icqnumber, not in repos; get from firefox addons site
[15:53] <unop> maxbaldwin, not necessarily, the www is just a convenience and most hosts forward to www if not specified like google.com and yahoo.com, etc
[15:53] <kat> mooded, a bunch of lines saying "GLX missing on display"
[15:53] <mooded> kat - is glx loaded in your xorg.conf then ? (did you manually adjust anything in that file, btw ?)
[15:54] <maxbaldwin> unop: ok, sure. I know my school doesn't do that.
[15:54] <kat> not that i know of.... but mooded , brb. i gotta do something.
[15:54] <lee_1> what is an LTSP Chroot?
[15:54] <ActionParsnip1> !chroot
[15:54] <unop> Bupsss, let's say you've extracted the source to /foo/   mkdir  build; cd build; ../configure; make # etc
[15:55] <lee_1> i know what a chroot is
[15:55] <lee_1> but what the hell is LTSP?
[15:55] <maty> is it possible to enable SSH to allow null passwords
[15:55] <platius> rien-ne-va-plus;  I see  PAL,PAL-m,PAL-N,PAL-NC,PAL-60 as choices in tvtime inputs
[15:55] <unop> lee_1, Linux Terminal Server Project
[15:55] <lee_1> unop: what would this be used for?
[15:55] <rambo3> stations
[15:55] <virtualstefan13> question: Do you use DOCK? specifically what dock?
[15:55] <rambo3> teminal stations
[15:55] <lee_1> for use by who?
[15:56] <lee_1> can i leave LTSP chroots out?
[15:56] <icqnumber> bazhang, i think it is something else, i need that option input methods->cyrillic transliterated in firefox
[15:56] <unop> lee_1,  setting up a terminal server - so that dumb client can use the desktop and applications on the server  rather than have them installed on the clients.
[15:56] <lee_1> unop: ok, so I guess I can install without this?
[15:56] <virtualstefan13> anyone knows a dock like OS X
[15:56] <ActionParsnip1> lee_1: http://developer.novell.com/wiki/index.php/KIWI-LTSP
[15:56] <NoVARaif> ActionParsnip1: I cannot ping my server by name from one of the XP workstations... I don't know if I ever setup DNS...  Being a home network, would you recommend DNS or something else on the ubuntu server?
[15:56] <lee_1> ok, i'll not use this then
[15:57] <ActionParsnip1> NoVARaif: does ip work? you should get dns from your router
[15:57] <bazhang> !awn | virtualstefan13
[15:57] <dr_willis> !dock
[15:57] <unop> lee_1, unless you see yourself needing this, i don't think you need to enable this option.
[15:57] <NoVARaif> ActionParsnip1: yep, can ping the server by ip addy
[15:57] <dr_willis> i get all sorts of video issues with AWN. :()
[15:57] <ay^> uh.. I have a problem.. My system just today started getting kernel panics fairly random it seems, where can I read about what might gone wrong?
[15:57] <lee_1> ok, what about LILO over GRUB? which is best for a single-booting system?
[15:57] <fus10nx> is there a way to fully hide the main, top Ubuntu taskbar?
[15:57] <rambo3> !avahi
[15:57] <virtualstefan13> thanks anyways... tried kiba dock.. dont know how to install.. hehehe
[15:58] <dr_willis> lee_1,  lilo is rarely used these days..
[15:58] <ActionParsnip1> NoVARaif: yu could put the samba server on static ip then add an entry to it in your HOSTS file
[15:58] <NoVARaif> ActionParsnip1: something else is going on....  I can't browse to my server from the xp client anymore
[15:58] <Masticor1> I get "conversion error" when I try copy a dvd with dvd95. Anyone know how to fix this?
[15:58] <lee_1> dr_willis: but is it good or crap for a single-booting system?
[15:58] <ActionParsnip1> NoVARaif: via ip or name?
[15:58] <mooded> fus10nx, there is nothing like an "ubuntu" panel.
[15:58] <NoVARaif> ActionParsnip1: can't browse to it via IP addy anyway..
[15:58] <bazhang> Masticor1, what is dvd95
[15:58] <icqnumber> bazhang, i think it is something else, i need that option every time i right click on the input field in firefox, in pop up menu-> input methods->cyrillic transliterated in firefox
[15:58] <mooded> fus10nx, i guess you mean the "gnome panel"
[15:59] <bazhang> icqnumber, not sure there sorry
[15:59] <the_alamo> where can i find the blueprint for the next release of ubuntu?
[15:59] <NoVARaif> ActionParsnip1: in a way, I'd rather avoid dealing with hosts files on each client
[15:59] <Masticor1> bazhang: dvd ripping tool
[15:59] <bazhang> Masticor1, try k9copy
[15:59] <mooded> fus10nx, i guess you could just remove the panel via right-click->delete this panel.. (but i dont know if thats a useful thing)
[15:59] <Masticor1> bazhang: I get errors there too
[15:59] <lee_1> damnit, now grub fails to install- what a waste of time
[15:59] <NoVARaif> ActionParsnip1: while i've only been dabbling with ubuntu as needed (as the best replacement for a Windoze server IMHO, I'm not afraid to try new things :)
[16:00] <lee_1> lilo it is...
[16:00] <platius> Masterkiller; have you tried acidrip?
[16:00] <ty> hello people
[16:00] <Masterkiller> platius, no i havent
[16:00] <ty> acidrip works great
[16:00] <platius> Masterkiller;opps
[16:01] <NoVARaif> ActionParsnip1: I've worked with, and supported, Windoze machines for many years, as I'm sure most of us have.  I just got tired of all the BS and overhead of maintaining a windoze server at home and started the conversion to linux and mac wherever possible on my network
[16:01] <mooded> lee_1, only know grub failing when the boot-directory is on an xfs-partition or at least not on a ext3-partition..
[16:01] <ty> Masterkiller: acid-rip works great
[16:01] <lee_1> mooded: hah, you got it, it is xfs
[16:01] <ActionParsnip1> NoVARaif: eww mac is nasty ;)
[16:01] <NoVARaif> ActionParsnip1: my 'conversion' started about 2 years ago
[16:01] <rsc-> just a curious question, what other DAWs do (ex-)buzzers use now?
[16:01]  * NoVARaif rofl
[16:01] <maty> Hey does anyone know about configing ssh
[16:01] <maty> ?
[16:01] <lee_1> mooded: i've installed lilo now
[16:01] <mooded> lee_1, make a small ext3-partition for the boot-directory..
[16:01] <ty> i used to copy blockbuster movies until i got told by blockbusters to stop
[16:01] <mooded> lee_1, also an option.
[16:01] <ty> i got in big trouble
[16:02] <lee_1> mooded: seems to have worked
[16:02] <rsc-> oh oops.
[16:02] <rsc-> wrong window.
[16:02] <mooded> lee_1, sure it works.. but lilo sucks compared to grub ,)
[16:02] <lee_1> mooded: its a single-OS computer so its not an issue
[16:02] <ty> irc.tyspage.doesntexist.com
[16:02] <ty> does that work
[16:02] <ty> http://irc.tyspage.doesntexist.com
[16:02] <ActionParsnip1> NoVARaif: nice, if it accessed by a windows machine, add the name / ip to the hosts file and it will be resolved
[16:03] <lee_1> Is there any way for a Ubunty system to clear the screen (tty1) before running the getty / login prompt thing?
[16:03] <mooded> lee_1, the number of os doesnt matter ,) i really appreciate the possibility to change whats going to be booted at the bootmenu..
[16:03] <ActionParsnip1> NoVARaif: id set the file server to static ip to make life way easier
[16:03] <nevyn_> Hey, I'm having some trouble with triple booting a MacBook Pro (penryn). I installed MacOS, then Windows, then Ubuntu, selecting defaults at all steps. After this, MacOS and Ubuntu works, but Windows bluescreens after a few seconds of its progress bar (it worked before installing Ubuntu). I installed refit, gptsynced, whereafter Windows couldn't find hal.dll; I fixed the boot.ini, and Windows once again starts booting; ho
[16:03] <mooded> lee_1, you dont have that option in lilo.. (for example when you switch kernels asf..)
[16:03] <NoVARaif> ActionParsnip1: server has been static IP forever ;)
[16:03] <lee_1> mooded: meh, this is only a vm for testing, i wanted to get a base system, although I wouldn't really call even an ubuntu base system "small"...
[16:04] <ActionParsnip1> good, then add the name / ip to the windows hosts file and it will circumvent dns
[16:04] <AkariChan>  question: how do i enable more than 2 desktops in xfce with compiz enabled?
[16:04] <ricgomez> hi, I'm having some problems with bind in chroot : couldn't open pid file '/var/lib/named/var/run/bind/run/named.pid': No such file or directory
[16:04] <mooded> lee_1, desktop oriented distros tend to be a lot bigger than needed for serverlike tasks..
[16:04] <AkariChan> cuz no matter how i set it, it defaults back to 1 table
[16:04] <lee_1> mooded: i spose, but i'm still quite happy with it
[16:04] <locustmage> I wanting to build a LFS. Is Ubuntu an ok enviornment or should i use the livecd for LFS? Has anyone tried it? LFS website doesnt recommend Binutils versions over 2.17 but ubuntu's is higher...along with the version of gcc. should i Be fine?
[16:04] <Masterkiller> anyone know how to chroot using the live cd? command not found??
[16:05] <mooded> lee_1, fine :)
[16:05] <ty> no
[16:05] <ty> bye people
[16:05] <bazhang> !chroot
[16:05] <ty> http://irc.tyspage.doesntexist.com
[16:05] <ty> see if that works
[16:05] <lee_1> mooded: actually at 321mb its not too bad, i tried some other "base" distros and they were all bigger/same with less functions.
[16:05] <ty> !google
[16:05] <ActionParsnip1> ty: Ty's IRC
[16:06] <Masticore> I only want to copy the dvd not ripping it to a .avi. I get erros with dvd95 and k9copy. Anyone know what it can be? libs I need or something?
[16:06] <ty> yes
[16:06] <conscience> can anybody say if this site http://www.youhide.com/ is safe ?
[16:06] <redhawk> use dvdshrink with wine
[16:06] <ty> it connects to my irc
[16:06] <NoVARaif> ActionParsnip1: the hosts file on my XP Media Center is over 263k in size, thanks to spybot S&D ... rofl
[16:06] <mooded> lee_1, yup isnt too bad.. but for servertasks i still prefer good old pure debian ;)
[16:06] <sp00f> i have it now ubottu..thanks
[16:06] <Masticore> redhawk: Does that copy the dvd or "shrink" it?
[16:06] <ty> ActionParsnip1: Its a cool php script that connects to my irc
[16:07] <redhawk> both
[16:07] <xcerca> conscience  , what do you mean , see if it's safe ?
[16:07] <redhawk> shrinks to 4.4gb
[16:07] <lee_1> mooded: fair enough, i use ubuntu server on mine, i think i'm a bit of a ubuntu fanboy :X
[16:07] <mooded> lee_1, hehe :)
[16:08] <lee_1> why is there an irc user on a base system, i dont even have an ircd installed
[16:08] <ActionParsnip1> ty: what plugin does it use. I cant see anything
[16:08] <ty> java
[16:08] <ty> or you can connect to my irc using xchat
[16:08] <ActionParsnip1> ty: ahh, java makes my entire system die
[16:08] <ty> tyspage.doesntexist.com
[16:08] <conscience> if i can go to that site and put passwords and usernames , i am trying to see if is possible to just have that site on an withelist of firesttarter
[16:08] <ty> oh
[16:08] <locustmage> I wanting to build a LFS. Is Ubuntu an ok enviornment or should i use the livecd for LFS? Has anyone tried it? LFS website doesnt recommend Binutils versions over 2.17 but ubuntu's is higher...along with the version of gcc. should i Be fine?

[16:08] <ty> ok
[16:09] <frith> is there a recommended webmail client?
[16:09] <mooded> locustmage, i guess using the livecd is the better way...
[16:10] <mooded> locustmage, _if_ that livecd contains the necessary build-env at all.. (its been a long time since i used lfs)
[16:10] <ActionParsnip1> frith: there are many mail clients, none are "recommended"
[16:10] <ActionParsnip1> frith: try a few, see what you like
[16:10] <riz_> hi
[16:10] <ty> DO any1 of yall still use windows?
[16:10] <NoVARaif> ActionParsnip1: I added my server to the XP machines hosts file, and of course, can now ping it by name ..brb
[16:10] <frith> ActionParsnip1, fair enough
[16:10] <locustmage> ok, i figured that would probably be better, but wasnt sure. just wanted to see if anyone tried lately. they have a 6.3 version. so hopefully... Lol.
[16:10] <riz_> where can i go and see what usb devices are plugged in?
[16:11] <_pirinto_> jrib: thanks for the help it seems to work now
[16:11] <bazhang> ty please chat in #ubuntu-offtopic

[16:11] <Skyrail> I've just installed ubuntu, it's a simple thing but the tab-completion for apt-get doesn't work, any idea how to fix it?
[16:11] <locustmage> nope not for about 2 yrs
[16:11] <NicEXE> I was playing Frets on Fire but when I quit the game my mouse pointer stuck in the middle of the screen. what should I do in order to fix it?
[16:11] <ty> awsome
[16:11] <ty> !
[16:11] <NoVARaif> ActionParsnip1: I am a geek, and I take instruction well, particularly from those whom I can learn from ;)
[16:11] <ty> i hate windows
[16:11] <ActionParsnip1> NicEXE: restart x is a good cure
[16:11] <mooded> Skyrail, apt-get not in path ?
[16:11] <ty> well cya l8r peoples
[16:11] <ActionParsnip1> NoVARaif: learning is good :)
[16:12] <bazhang> ty not here ; #ubuntu-offtopic
[16:12] <lee_1> is there any way to install the x11 base and not have it auto start and stuff, i want to run simple things with no window manager
[16:12] <NicEXE> ActionParsnipl: how to restart X?
[16:12] <Skyrail> mooded: how do you mean?
[16:12] <UnknownUser56> my ubuntu 8.10 download is ending in 2h
[16:12] <NoVARaif> ActionParsnip1: that's why I have no hair left, rofl
[16:12] <conscience> to any one who is interested on security i say that put your firestarter or firewall in withelist and them add this rule www.youhide.com
[16:12] <locustmage> I started dual booting Xandros and XP then I moved to Linux Mint then I found Ubuntu
[16:12] <UnknownUser56> woooooo
[16:12] <ty> bazhang:thank you
[16:12] <ActionParsnip1> NicEXE: ctrl + alt + backspace
[16:12] <NoVARaif> ActionParsnip1: between learning/burnin' brain cells and tryin' to pull it out, ain't much left ;)
[16:12] <UnknownUser56> Contrary to populat belief ,Windows is pretty good
[16:12] <UnknownUser56> lol @ action
[16:12] <ActionParsnip1> NoVARaif: hehe, is wisdom inversely proportional to hair?
[16:13] <sye> windows is good? hehe
[16:13] <mooded> Skyrail, --> echo $PATH, and look for dir /usr/bin (it definitely _should_ be there, but just to check)
[16:13] <riz_> anyone have any expirience with hauppauge usb tv tuner on ubuntu?
[16:13] <NoVARaif> ActionParsnip1: meh, who knows?  If I don't have hair, it's one less thing to worry about whilst showering :D
[16:13] <locustmage> this really isnt the place to get into a windows is pretty good argument
[16:13] <locustmage> lol
[16:13] <bazhang> !windows
[16:13] <Polysics> hi all
[16:13] <Polysics> my webcam refuses to work on 8.10
[16:13] <Polysics> i've installed the v4l packages from the PPA
[16:13] <Skyrail> mooded: yeh it's there :/
[16:13] <sye> I miss windows - not!
[16:13] <Polysics> and put the LD line in /etc/profile
[16:13] <NoVARaif> ActionParsnip1: where can I check, on the ubuntu box, to see if it's denying HTTP calls from the client machines?
[16:14] <Polysics> but i suspect i am missing the gscpa module in the kernel
[16:14] <Polysics> if my webcam uses the gscpa module, shoudl i see something like that in lsmod?
[16:14] <locustmage> the only thing i miss about windows is the games.. Wine is too buggy and Cedega costs
[16:14] <NoVARaif> ActionParsnip1: I can ping the silly thing, now by IP and name, but firefox on the client is still lost lol
[16:14] <Polysics> locustmage, do like me, buy a xbox 360, less money, always run newer games
[16:14] <mooded> Skyrail, so what exactly are you doing where you think there should be something completed via tab ?
[16:14]  * NoVARaif is thinking about recycling the network stack
[16:14] <platius> Polysics; install gspca-source
[16:14] <UnknownUser56> try ip:port ?
[16:15] <Polysics> platius, then?
[16:15] <Polysics> if theere is a then :-)
[16:15] <Skyrail> mooded: well I've done it before on numerous previous installs, apt-get install <use tab completion of package names here>
[16:15] <Roland123> while trying "make install" the app tells me that can't find SDL.h... where to get it?
[16:15] <platius> Polysics; phone call
[16:15] <locustmage> yeah but the big one I want to play is on PS2 (which i have just not online) and windows... FFXI Im a big FF freak and ive never played that one yet
[16:15] <UnknownUser56> google is hiding the headers
[16:15] <lee_1> Roland123: probably in some libsdl-dev or something
[16:16] <TheLostShaman> alllopp
[16:16] <TheLostShaman> anybody can help me plz
[16:16] <lee_1> Roland123: likely libsdl1.2-dev
[16:16] <Phlogi> why is openoffice3 not added to current release? I don't get it... that sucks
[16:16] <JaxxMaxx|> FFXI is not that great.   may have improved in the years its been since I was a player, though
[16:16] <locustmage> because they thought they would let open office work out their bugss
[16:16] <mooded> Skyrail, oh.. that kind of completion would be new to me.. i guess its a bash-specific configuration thing then... prolly in /etc/bash_completion - but cant you tell any details..
[16:16] <Polysics> i guess you can get a PS2 for vry little money these days
[16:17] <Skyrail> mooded: fair enough, I'll just use apt-cache search from now on then :) thanks
[16:17] <locustmage> i read the release details. same reason Kubuntu isnt relying fulling on KDE 4
[16:17] <mooded> Skyrail, np ,)
[16:17] <Polysics> it might be jsut me, but since i got the 360 and a good lcdtv i never booted a windows game again :-)
[16:17] <locustmage> well the issue is before i got into linux i bought the windows version of FFXI and then i never had the internet...
[16:18] <platius> Polysics; http://lwn.net/Articles/291036/ here is a list of supported devices
[16:18] <locustmage> now i do and i run linux. ironic huh?
[16:18] <Roland123> lee_1: tnx, but any idea on GL/glext.h?
[16:18] <Polysics> platius, the cam works flawlessy in 8.04, i just wanted to avoid downgrading the kernel if possible
[16:18] <Polysics> also because i have no idea HOW to downgrade :-)
[16:19] <locustmage> well i dont try to compare MMORPGs, but rather a fan of the series
[16:19] <lee_1> Roland123: No idea, if its to do with OpenGL, its probably a libsomething :) try looking for lib*-dev packages in synaptic
[16:19] <Polysics> after quitting WoW i won't play another MMORPG again
[16:19] <ashleyp> http://www.unsere-nackte-pyjamaparty.net/?id=1083665
[16:19] <platius> Polysics; I will have to move my cam to my 8.10 to check for you will take a minute
[16:19] <Polysics> it's like having a job in your free time too
[16:19] <Polysics> platius, many thanks
[16:20] <Polysics> my cam is a Logitech Quickcam E2500
[16:20] <lee_1> Roland123: might be libgl1-mesa-dev but i dont know
[16:20] <NoVARaif> ActionParsnip1: On the server, I can get to the generic http site for my server, as well as port 631 for printer admin and 10000 for webmin
[16:20] <NoVARaif> ActionParsnip1: I'll be back shortly...  gotta go check on the roomie
[16:20] <Polysics> i'm really lookign forward to Left 4 Dead
[16:20] <lee_1> Roland123: or maybe freeglut3-dev, i wouldnt know
[16:20] <Polysics> the demo is killer
[16:20] <ghostlines> is port 25 used in combination with other ports for sending secure mail? Or are other ports only used when sending secure mail?
[16:20] <Masterkiller> what kind of trouble am i going to run into building a kernel using ubuntu live cd on a broken red hat box?
[16:21] <locustmage> lol. yeah left for dead 4 looks interesting
[16:21] <ghostlines> my isp blocks port 25, so i was wondering if i can get by that by using ssl/tls to send secure mail via other ports
[16:21] <mooded> ghostlines, 25 is smtp in combination with tls only.. ssl-smtp is normally on 465
[16:21] <Polysics> i wasn't blown away by Fable 2, almosta disappointment
[16:21] <locustmage> I actually just played Resident Evil 4 its hard as hell
[16:21] <Polysics> basically if you don't do side quests the game is over in 3 hours
[16:21] <bazhang> !offtopic
[16:22] <Polysics> hmm, looking at lsusb, there is no webcam entry in there
[16:22] <kat> mooded, hey
[16:22] <kat> mooded, you still therE?
[16:22] <Polysics> there's a generic "Logitech Inc," thing
[16:22] <mooded> kat, ye..
[16:22] <ActionParsnip1> Polysics: is it turned on?
[16:22] <locustmage> see this is why i dont use irc
[16:23] <kat> mooded, what was it you wanted me to do?
[16:23] <Polysics> ActionParsnip1, there is nothing to turn it on on it :-)
[16:23] <Polysics> just the snapshot button
[16:23] <locustmage> im not going to switch rooms everytime idle conversation leads in a certain direction
[16:23] <Polysics> let's hope i didn't buy the ONLY webcam model that is not supported by Linux :-)
[16:24] <mooded> kat, check in xorg.conf --> 1. is "Driver"=nvidia in the "Device section" , 2. is there a Load "glx" in your "module section" ?
[16:24] <ActionParsnip1> Polysics: ok, just checking
[16:24] <krashero> hi everyone
[16:24] <Polysics> locustmage, in a sense, they are right... still, Fable 2 isn't worth 50$ :-)

[16:29] <tynar> _Zeus_ definitely, i found same problems in google, it seems it is Dell's mistake
[16:29] <platius> Polysics; synaptic does a build
[16:30] <_Zeus_> tynar: well, then i'd say you are out of luck :(
[16:30] <mooded> kat, i'd check /var/log/Xorg.0.log for any error-messages while starting
[16:30] <SafeWay> hi.. when i go in to compiz config there is nothin to change.. the window i empty.. why?
[16:30] <_Zeus_> tynar: laptop?

[16:31] <NoVARaif> ActionParsnip1: not that I'm AWARE of ... rofl... where should I start checking?
[16:31] <Polysics> platius, actually, synaptci just installs the package
[16:31] <Polysics> how do i build it?
[16:32] <_Zeus_> SafeWay: huh.  have you tried running ccsm from the command line?
[16:32] <_Zeus_> see if there are any errors?
[16:32] <tj83> !version
[16:32] <ActionParsnip1> NoVARaif: if its not configured you will be ok
[16:32] <kat> mooded, i really wouldn't know what to look for... do you have time to look at my file?
[16:32] <tynar> _Zeus_: this laptop has already finished his life, I want to use it for testing some applications, anyway,
[16:32] <platius> Polysics; ah
[16:32] <_Zeus_> tynar: ah
[16:32] <_Zeus_> tynar: well, ssh is an option
[16:32] <ActionParsnip1> NoVARaif: are you asked for a username and password if you access \\servername\sharename?
[16:32] <mooded> kat, upload it to some pastebin.. ill have a look at it, but cant promise ill find anything ,)
[16:32] <_Zeus_> just leave it as a dumb terminal that you never sit at
[16:32] <bakarat> i need a graphical tool that basically does "tail -f" and allows colouring of keywords
[16:32] <NoVARaif> ActionParsnip1: webmin reports, under network/linux firewall, that 1 IPtables firewall rule is apparently set by a script
 the same there
[16:33] <tynar> _Zeus_: yeah likely will use ssh
[16:33] <Polysics> ok, how do i downgrade my kernel?
[16:33] <_Zeus_> how do i do a tracert in ubuntu?
[16:33] <Polysics> to 2.6.24 (hoary)
[16:33] <|DarkSmoke|> hey guys
[16:33] <ActionParsnip1> NoVARaif: id check what that is, you could restart the samba service
[16:33] <|DarkSmoke|> i did an apt-get source of a prog
[16:34] <_Zeus_> nm, tracepate
[16:34] <NeoThermic> is there any way to search to see if a package is in apt via an online script?
[16:34] <_Zeus_> *h
[16:34] <dmulholland> hey, i copied a load of files from a windows ntfs partition into my linux home directory and when i do ls in the folder from the commmand line, they show with a background behind them where as normal folders made with mkdir dont. is there something different about them and how can i make the windows ones the same as the linux ones?
[16:34] <ikonia> NeoThermic: apt-cache search $package name
[16:34] <|DarkSmoke|> i want to compile and create a deb package, i remember running some script "rules" in the debian/ folder, but i forgot what to do exacly
[16:34] <|DarkSmoke|> anyhelp?
[16:34] <unop> NeoThermic, http://packages.ubuntu.com
[16:34] <NeoThermic> ikonia: I'm not running and can't run apt
[16:34] <NeoThermic> unop: ooh, thanks
[16:34] <mooded> Polysics, learn how to build a current kernel on your os first.. then try downgrading and fighting with gcc / libc / headers / asf dependencies..
[16:34] <ikonia> NeoThermic: look in the repos
[16:34] <kat> mooded, http://pastebin.com/m114eb3ea
[16:35] <NoVARaif> ActionParsnip1: I'm not sure where to start looking to find the rule that's running... any suggestions?

[16:36] <ikonia> the_newbie: there is a usb and firewire edtion
[16:36] <rien-ne-va-plus> platius: i tried all input settings for tvtime, but i get nothing. i come to think that the cable is dead, ill see if i can check with another computer
[16:36] <ActionParsnip1> NoVARaif: no idea man, sorry. you could try sudo /etc/init.d/samba restart
[16:36] <|neon|> i bee trying for weeks to make my desktop settings stay after i reboot, i.e. theme and how it looks, i can change it but once i reboot changes revert back to default, i am using gnome ubuntu 8.10 and tried session manager withou any luck,   suggestions? thx
[16:37] <NoVARaif> ActionParsnip1: done, restart / reload successful for samba
[16:37] <ikonia> |neon|: your not using a livecd are you ?
[16:37] <the_newbie> ikonia, by any chance, do you know if it is possible to connect it wirelessly to my laptop using a router, but without an internet connection?
[16:37] <ActionParsnip1> NoVARaif: are you asked for auth if you type //servername/sharename in a windows run box?
[16:37] <ikonia> the_newbie: don't see why not
[16:37] <mooded> Polysics, i think not, it wont work without problems i guess.. you _could_ try it, but no guarantee for things working afterwards
[16:37] <Ximilus> hello everyone
[16:37] <ikonia> the_newbie: it should just can an IP and can be accessed via the ip address
[16:37] <NoVARaif> ActionParsnip1: what I got there was "No service is operating at the destination network endpoint on the remote system." .. brb
[16:37] <NeoThermic> and via the cli is there any way to tell what version of ubuntu I run?
[16:38] <NeoThermic> (uname -a isn't overly descriptive)
[16:38] <_Zeus_> NeoThermic: lsb_release -a or cat /etc/issue

[16:38] <SafeWay> hi.. when i go in to compiz config there is nothin to change.. the window i empty.. why?

[16:39] <Polysics> ok, if i give up on getting the webcam working, will the bug get fixed sometime?
[16:39] <Polysics> there is a bug filed already

[16:42] <Guest73983> read manual of hdd
[16:42] <NoVARaif> ActionParsnip1: I vaguely recall something about windoze boxes using two different ports for SMB connections.  I further recall seeing errors about that in one of the server logs, I think I put a line in my smb.conf to force the server to use only one port
[16:42] <NoVARaif> brb
[16:42] <the_newbie> ikonia, allright
[16:42] <SafeWay> _zeus_ - yes i know what the treminal is

[16:43] <ikonia> Lavagolemking: explain the problem
[16:43] <Lavagolemking> ikonia: Error 17: Cannot mount selected partition
[16:43] <Ximilus> i will try alone
[16:43] <Ximilus> good bye
[16:43] <Polysics> anyway, it all boils down to: i have no /dev/video0 device
[16:43] <ikonia> Lavagolemking: ok, so your grub config is pointing at the wrong partition, or a partiion that can't be mounted
[16:44] <Polysics> no video devices at a

[16:44] <ikonia> Lavagolemking: tell me about your system, how many disks ?

[16:45] <ikonia> SafeWay: stop that please
[16:45] <magcius> SafeWay, what exact
[16:45] <ikonia> SafeWay: your welcome to not use it and use windows if you don't like it
[16:45] <rien-ne-va-plus> i cant figure out why my printer isnt published in the local network
[16:45] <Guest73983> ubuntu can spoooooof   ip address
[16:45] <ikonia> Guest73983: no
[16:45] <magcius> SafeWay, what exactly are your beefs with Ubuntu?
[16:45] <Guest73983> what
[16:45] <szx0> Ubuntu rocks

[16:46] <Guest73983> ikonia
[16:46] <joshux> Does windows have "support" ?
[16:46] <mez_> how do i see what the name of my network card is? i mean the brand and type
[16:46] <Polysics> well, i find it amusing that talking about videogames is offtopic, while saying stupid things is on topic
[16:46] <Guest73983> windows is for lamers
[16:46] <SafeWay> wow, now you respond..
[16:46] <ikonia> Guest73983: stop that
[16:46] <ActionParsnip1> joshux: for what?
[16:46] <bazhang> Guest73983, please stop
[16:46] <ikonia> Polysics: silly things are not ontopic
[16:46] <ikonia> Polysics: this is ubuntu support only
[16:46] <szx0> Can anyone help me determine what this means? http://pastebin.com/dcf67844 It's a log of access attempts to my box
[16:46] <dr_willis> joshux,  their support aparently is focused on  the idea of 'passing the buck to other companies being the problem' and 'reformat/reinstall'
[16:46] <Lavagolemking> ikonia: It will be a moment. I have to hook it into my school's network. Wireless isn't working yet.
[16:46] <ActionParsnip1> joshux: you could head to ##windows
[16:46] <ikonia> Lavagolemking: no problem
[16:46] <Guest73983> i have code that can destroy network and runs on ubuntu baby
[16:46] <Shoopuf1> I am trying to install from the CVS but it says "cannot make directory CVS in .: Permission denied"
[16:47] <Polysics> oh LAWDY
[16:47] <joshux> ActionParsnip1, I was asking Safeway :-p
[16:47] <Polysics> the kick is up... and it's good!
[16:47] <panfist> sudo blkid tells me that i have a disk /dev/sda of type mdraid....can I change the type without changing anything else that's on the disk?
[16:47] <joshux> He said ubuntu has bad support
[16:47] <mez_> how do i see what the name of my network card is? i mean the brand and type
[16:47] <SafeWay> joshux - yes, languge?
[16:47] <Polysics> well, ubuntu, being free, has decent support, tbh

[16:48] <Polysics> i actually get more support on my free ubuntu than on my paid windows, but maybe it's just me
[16:48] <ActionParsnip1> Polysics: you have a number you can ring to get answers
[16:48] <alcockell> Point taken, Polysics.. I suppose it's a different mindset.
[16:48] <Guest73983> mez i think u can google that
[16:48] <Guest73983> 2 simple to think
[16:48] <Polysics> then again, things like the v4l bug make me want to set things on fire :-)
[16:49] <alcockell> ... which can even be a bit of a mental switch if you happen to work in professional IT support...
[16:49] <Polysics> ActionParsnip1, ever tried actually calling? :-) i think i solved problems the guy at the call center had, the last time i tried :-)
[16:49] <mon^rch> lol
[16:49] <ActionParsnip1> Polysics: ive never needed it. i have the web
[16:50] <Polysics> at least ubuntu doesn't make you "expect" anything, everything that comes is good, being it free and not asking anything in return save for the occasional small donation
[16:50] <Guest73983> my ubuntu 8.0 hangs
[16:50] <Polysics> which you can even skip, if you like
[16:50] <dmulholland> what's the default icon directory in ubuntu
[16:50] <dmulholland> ?
[16:50] <shiki9> what other  vector graphics apps are there in ubuntu so far i found inkscape which is great
[16:50] <Lavagolemking> ikonia: http://pastebin.ca/1257035
[16:50] <ikonia> Lavagolemking: ok
[16:51] <ikonia> Lavagolemking: ubuntu is not installed on that disk
[16:51] <ActionParsnip1> dmulholland: /usr/share/pixmaps/
[16:51] <Guest73983> ubuntu ultimate rocks
[16:51] <alcockell> Polysics - however, there are higher customer expectations around Ubuntu now - especially with it being the default install on some laptops..
[16:51] <Lavagolemking> Hmm... it did a format and ditched the former OS.
[16:51] <bazhang> !offtopic
[16:51] <ActionParsnip1> Guest73983: how is it different to LTS version?
[16:51] <bazhang> please take chat to #ubuntu-offtopic
[16:51] <alcockell> Apologies.
[16:51] <ikonia> ActionParsnip1: it's not an ubuntu release
[16:51] <jrib> dmulholland: you can use ~/.icons/
[16:51] <bazhang> ActionParsnip1, he is muted
[16:52] <Lavagolemking> ikonia: I can also see the installed files on /media/disk.
[16:52] <ikonia> Lavagolemking: the partition types are marked as HPFS/NTFS
[16:53] <ikonia> Lavagolemking: the ubuntu installer wouldn't do that
[16:53] <alcockell> Nah - sounds like XP or Vista..
[16:53] <Palomides> how do I create an image of a disk?
[16:53] <alcockell> Or W2003..
[16:53] <ActionParsnip1> ikonia: didnt think so, there's a mandriva ultimate :)
[16:53] <Lavagolemking> Yes, but gparted is reading a FAT16, NTFS (9.77 GB) and a giant EXT3.
[16:53] <eydaimon> How can I make the sound louder? It's awefully soft, and my headphones don't have a volume control
[16:54] <ikonia> Lavagolemking: fdisk is only showing 2 partitions which is a worry
[16:54] <Polysics> i probably have a different problem - maybe the webcam isn't even supported
[16:54] <Lavagolemking> The installed encountered a "fatal error" in installing GRUB.
[16:54] <bazhang> eydaimon, open terminal and type alsamixer
[16:54] <Polysics> i have no /dev/video0
[16:54] <Polysics> in fact, applications don't crach or report anything, they just say there is no webcam connected
[16:55] <hateball> Palomides♖ I use Clonezilla for cloning tasks. Grab the Livecd and off you go
[16:56] <NoVARaif> ActionParsnip1: Finally remembered the Samba port thing for windows clients.. they use 139 and 445 alternately to connect to shares, and to eliminate superfluous log entries, i put "smb ports = 139" in my smb.conf ... So, I don't that THAT is the firewall issue... still dgging
[16:57] <Lavagolemking> ikonia: http://www.cse.ohio-state.edu/~swaneybr/s.png
[16:57] <Lavagolemking> It's showing 3 there.

[16:59] <mooded> Mez, use lspci to see the cards details..
[16:59] <ikonia> Lavagolemking: looks like your disk layout i corrupted there
[16:59] <ikonia> Lavagolemking: I would a.) reboot to make sure the disk was read correctly b.) re-install
[16:59] <abchirk> what is a good recording program for voice?
[16:59] <Lavagolemking> It's a brand new computer, so I'm guessing the disk isn't corrupt.
[17:00] <NoVARaif> ActionParsnip1: odd... I just tried a "sudo ufw status" and was told it's not loaded? rofl
[17:00] <mooded> Lavagolemking, ikonia said the layout might be corrupt not the disk itself.
[17:01] <Lavagolemking> Ah, makes more sense. I did get a broken HD out-of-the-box once though...
[17:01] <ActionParsnip1> NoVARaif: you could use netstat to check the process is listening to the right port and is running
[17:02] <Rioting_pacifist> my screen goes crazy when i resume from a suspend to ram
[17:03] <ActionParsnip1> Rioting_pacifist: welcome to suspend hell
[17:03] <mooded> ^^
[17:03] <bsnider> does anybody know where archive mounter mounts images? what is the path?
[17:03] <frith> what package has php file info?
[17:04] <ActionParsnip1> bsnider: make it mount something, then run mount in terminal. it will say
[17:04] <Rioting_pacifist> its wierd tho because the system works perfectly just both x and cli but the screen is unusable
[17:04] <Lavagolemking> ikonia: The ext3 file system creation in partition #1 of SCSI1 (0,0,0) failed.
[17:04] <Rioting_pacifist> and the system used to suspend/resume ok (when it worked)
[17:04] <ActionParsnip1> Rioting_pacifist: you could restart x but it kinda defeats the point of suspend
[17:05] <Rioting_pacifist> ActionParsnip1: that doesnt do anything, both the cli and x stay screwed
[17:05] <nalys> hello, I have following the following problem with intrepid: both my /root/.local/share/Trash/files and /home/nalys/.local/share/Trash/files are empty when I open these folders with nautilus. Though Trash isn't empty and when I want to empty it it says "read only file system", so I guess I have to change the rights with sudo chmod but I can't get to these files, I don't understand where they...
[17:05] <nalys> ...are...
[17:05] <icheyne> I can't get Java to work. If I type java -version I get nothing. BUT according to apt-get, I have sun-java6-bin and -jre installed.
[17:05] <ActionParsnip1> Rioting_pacifist: ive never used suspend, i think its worthless and causes a tonne of grief
[17:05] <Rioting_pacifist> i have messed with my statup/shutdown services since it worked fine, but vbesave is still set to 2345
[17:06] <Rioting_pacifist> well my startup is slowed down by a fsck bug nobody seams to care about and i autosuspend when idle

[17:10] <ldiamond> I need help here, I'm unable to install firefox using apt-get. Also, all versions of Firefox that I installed kept crashing constantly.
[17:11] <szx0> I configured my firewall, wrote the rules out to an iptables.rules file, configured my interfaces file to save/restore the rules on reboot.... but it doesn't work... Every reboot actually wipes out my iptables-rules file to defaults (no rules). What's going on?
[17:11] <icheyne> ldiamond, sudo aptitude firefox-3.0
[17:11] <ldiamond> I installed it from the repo, kept crashing, I installed it from the FF site, kept crashing, I installed the newer version from FF site, crashed again, now I'm unable to install it from the repo again
[17:11] <ActionParsnip1> fus10nx: sudo apt-get install w32codecs

[17:11] <Bupsss> hi, i just compiled the gdm with a tiny modification
[17:12] <fus10nx> thanks
[17:12] <Bupsss> did make, and make install
[17:12] <fus10nx> ill give that a shot
[17:12] <ldiamond> icheyne, you mean sudo aptitude install firefox-3.0 ?
[17:12] <ActionParsnip1> NoVARaifnice one bro, probably relates to the DNS badness
[17:12] <Bupsss> but i see no updates when i reboot... what did i do wrong?
[17:12] <icheyne> ldiamond, yes
[17:12] <ldiamond> icheyne, that doesnt work as I stated before
[17:12] <ActionParsnip1> ldiamond: is it all sites it crashes on?
[17:12] <fus10nx> heh
[17:12] <fus10nx> umm
[17:13] <fus10nx> This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or
[17:13] <fus10nx> is only available from another source
[17:13] <fus10nx> E: Package w32codecs has no installation candidate
[17:13] <icheyne> ldiamond, sudo aptitude reinstall firefox-3.0?
[17:13] <fus10nx> any idea what else it may be called?
[17:13] <ldiamond> ActionParsnip1, yes, no matter what site, with no plugin or addon, even in safe mode
[17:13] <bazhang> fus10nx, get from medibuntu
[17:13] <bazhang> !medibuntu
[17:13] <Lavagolemking> I'm going to have to work on this later...
[17:13] <ldiamond> icheyne, that worked, Ill test if it crashes
[17:14] <ldiamond> icheyne, usually takes less than 5 min
[17:14] <mib_z3430d> any idea why my lamp won't run php pages
[17:14] <ActionParsnip1> ldiamond: try: mv ~/.mozilla ¬/.mozilla_old; firefox &
[17:14] <mib_z3430d> it makes me try to download the php file instead
[17:14] <ActionParsnip1> d'oh, thats not right
[17:14] <ActionParsnip1> ldiamond: mv ~/.mozilla ~/.mozilla_old; firefox &
[17:14] <ldiamond> ActionParsnip1, I already erased .mozilla many times in order to fix crashes
[17:14] <fus10nx> wahoo
[17:14] <fus10nx> ok
[17:14] <fus10nx> awesome!
[17:14] <NoVARaif_> ActionParsnip1: all the XP clients drive mappings have returned on my media center pc.. gonna check roomie's Xp machine, then my mac

[17:15] <vladuz976> is there a solution to the nvidia driver problem?
[17:15] <ActionParsnip1> ldiamond: hmm any info in the terminal when firefox crashed?
[17:15] <vladuz976> downgrading to 173 fixes that?
[17:16] <ldiamond> ActionParsnip1, Nop, it crashes and nothing is output on the terminal
[17:16] <u007> hi, anyone know how to reset my xfce panel? my notification area does not show nm-applet even thou its activated in the session, please help~~
[17:16] <ldiamond> ActionParsnip1, This thing is driving me crazy!
[17:16] <ActionParsnip1> ldiamond: id also mv ~/.mozilla_old ~/.mozilla
[17:17] <ActionParsnip1> ldiamond: sudo apt-get --purge remove firefox-3.0; sudo apt-get autoremove; sudo apt-get clean; sudo apt-get update; sudo apt-get install firefox-3.0
[17:17] <Jack_Sparrow> ActionParsnip1 IF he was installing manually he could have more /firefox directories
[17:17] <icheyne> ldiamond, have you tried epiphany
[17:18] <icheyne> nice enough browser
[17:18] <nalys> hello, I have the following problem with intrepid: both my /root/.local/share/Trash/files and /home/nalys/.local/share/Trash/files are empty when I open these folders with nautilus. Though Trash (and I can't go to this folder when I run nautilus as root (don't know why)), isn't empty and when I want to empty it it says "read only file system", so I guess I have to change the rights with sudo...
[17:18] <nalys> ...chmod but I can't get to these files, I don't understand where they are...
[17:18] <le000> hi
[17:18] <vladuz976> no one here has this nvidia driver problem after upgrading?
[17:18] <ldiamond> icheyne, no
[17:18] <le000> i cannot see the syslog on the system log menu...
[17:18] <vladuz976> I've seen tons of posts on the forum, but no solution yet. anybody?
[17:18] <ldiamond> ActionParsnip1, I already tried purging, but not all of the above, Ill try them next time FF crashes
[17:18] <ActionParsnip1> nalys: id chown the folder to you just to make sure its got the right owner
[17:19] <mooded> vladuz976, the last one i talked to finally reinstalled 8.04.. since none of the nvidia-drivers worked in 8.10 for him / her / whatever
[17:19] <ActionParsnip1> ldiamond: it basically removes firefox and all its gumf, then cleans your apt-cache so you are forced to download fresh
[17:19] <ActionParsnip1> ldiamond: or you could use opera :D
[17:19] <vladuz976> mooded, so for some people it works, for others it doesn't?
[17:20] <vladuz976> mooded, what does it depend on?
[17:20] <mooded> vladuz976, i guess solving it depends on your knowledge about kernel-compiling asf...
[17:20] <icheyne> is there a workable alternative to sun-java?
[17:20] <icheyne> I can't get it to work
[17:20] <mooded> vladuz976, i have 9800gtx nvidia and it works.. (but i installed 8.10 directly, no update or so)
[17:20] <ldiamond> ActionParsnip1, yea I already downloaded opera, but I kinda like google toolbar in FF, and some other extensions
[17:20] <vladuz976> mooded, i am thinking of doing that too
[17:20] <ldiamond> ActionParsnip1, so Opera wouldnt be as nice (eventho its faster, for now)
[17:20] <vladuz976> really too bad that distro upgrade still doesn't wokr
[17:20] <NoVARaif_> ActionParsnip1: THANK YOU...  I can't believe my network stack partially hiccuped.  Thanks for your help!
[17:21] <vladuz976> after so many years
[17:21] <Jack_Sparrow> ldiamond it can be some of those extensions causing your issues.  Many are not truely stable
[17:21] <nalys> ActionParsnip1: Oh wait, problem seems solved... I had forgotten that I had directly deleted these files from an extern device...so I just unplugged it for the first time since, nd now the files are gone....why is that?
[17:21] <mooded> vladuz976, yup.. but its a stoneage-old prob and really really not trivial to solve..
[17:21] <NoVARaif_> ActionParsnip1: Now, I'm off to finish setting up my ubuntu box as a backup target for mac's time machine
[17:21] <maty> is there a way of checking the password for a user is correct without trying to login as the user?
[17:21] <NoVARaif_> have a great day, y'all
[17:21] <Stargazer> There's a couple items in the Trash that i can't delete. any ideas ?
[17:21] <ldiamond> Jack_Sparrow, I also tried FF with no extension, no plugin, no addon, safemode, still crashes
[17:22] <vladuz976> mooded, I'd install from CD, but no blank cds, lol
[17:22] <jrib> Stargazer: sudo chown -R $USER: ~/.local/share/Trash/
[17:22] <mooded> vladuz976, damn ;))
[17:22] <vladuz976> mooded, usb boot doesn't work for me somehow
[17:22] <vladuz976> mooded, guess I gotta wait til tomorrow and buy some cds
[17:22] <Stargazer> Jrib, i can delete other items, just two folders with some stuff is always there.
[17:22] <mooded> vladuz976, thats prolly the least problematic way ;)
[17:23] <sammi_curr72> i have a wireless question
[17:23] <vladuz976> just wonder if that's gonna make any difference
[17:23] <mooded> !ask | sammi_curr72
[17:24] <sammi_curr72> how do i install a modded wireless driver for the rt2870 from nemesis.. it's in a bz2 format, but when i make install, i get error 2?
[17:24] <Stargazer> Jrib: "Error removing file: Permission denied" on something called phpblog (folder)
[17:24] <mooded> sammi_curr72, first you need to upload a trace of the error-messages to some pastebin, second, make someone look at it.
[17:24] <nalys> Stargazer: read my questions, I had the same problem, I think you maybe deleted these files directly from an external device could that be?
[17:24] <mooded> sammi_curr72, error 2 doesnt say anything at all
[17:25] <Netcowboy> hello , I'm tryn to connect to  a vpn but since I'm using gnome-ppp to connect to my usb modem network manger report I'm offline so I can't connect to vpn any help ?

[17:25] <sammi_curr72> i'll paste in a second.. hold on
[17:25] <nalys> Stargazer: If so, just unplug it.
[17:25] <Stargazer> Nalys, i deleted it from a local dir. nothing external.
[17:26] <nalys> Stargazer: Ah ok, sry then.

[17:28] <koruptidpryde> z28, the server version of ubuntu should have installables for that
[17:28] <mooded> vladuz976, nope.. i compile my kernels on my own if i need it.. and update the rest respectively.. (only 8.10 was a fresh install, since its my first ubuntu.. used debian for ages before)
[17:28] <Jack_Sparrow> vladuz976 Nope, many have a seperate /home so they can upgrade without having a fresh install to deal with.  Many have two linux installs, one stable and one for testing/destroying and playing

[17:31] <vladuz976> Jack_Sparrow, i think i understand your point, put /home on a separate partition, so you don't have to worry about it when upgrading?
[17:31] <olga> i am unable to play any mp3 files

[17:32] <Lucifer__> hello question, How do i share files on my Ubuntu PC, whit my WinVista PC.    I know it uses samba but how do i configure it ?
[17:32] <Azureus> Hello guys..I have a pretty nasty problem here. I have an Windows XP Machine that's running putty on it and an ubuntu machine that's running an ssh server. Let say that i want to connect to a hl server that's restricted by my isp from the windows machine. I know that Half Life is using the following ports: TCP  6003,7002 UDP: 27005, 27010-27011 and 27015. As far as i know SSH does not support udp traffic tunneling but i had saw somewhere (can't remember wher
[17:32] <koruptidpryde> olga, medibuntu: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Medibuntu
[17:32] <vladuz976> Jack_Sparrow, so i am saying, another partition is not going to help me in this case
[17:32] <icheyne> Lucifer_, !samba
[17:32] <mooded> DarkKnight, you could manually insert the possible resolution configs into /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[17:33] <vladuz976> Jack_Sparrow, what would help is a rolling release
[17:33] <olga> how do i play mp3 files guys plz help!!!
[17:33] <Jack_Sparrow> vladuz976 it would not help with that, but it will help with a variety of other issues
[17:33] <vladuz976> instead of these distroupgrades
[17:33] <olga> its driving me crzy
[17:33] <ackbahr> Hi there! I mseed up my MBR BUT I still have (can see it from LiveCD) the /boot/grub/ folder... How do I restore this from live CD?
[17:33] <Jack_Sparrow> !mp3
[17:33] <soundray> Lucifer__: right click a folder and select Sharing options
[17:33] <xcerca> anybody installed ubuntu on a psp ?
[17:33] <ackbahr> Messed up, I mean....
[17:33] <koruptidpryde> Netcowboy, you add the source to the bottom of your /etc/apt/sources.list, then refresh your package cache and it *should* give you a newer package
[17:33] <vladuz976> Jack_Sparrow, yes, but i backup my /home anyways, so i always have it handy if anything happens
[17:33] <mooded> !help
[17:33] <DarkKnight> mooded; but i m unable to know which fits best..
[17:33] <twocats1fish> I must download the entire 700 meg ISO just to get a "live CD"? I just need a CD bootable GUI to save some data from the HDD to a USB memory.  I do see this beautiful "vista" when looking through the double paned glass attached to my wall.
[17:35] <Lucifer__> soundray nope
[17:35] <twocats1fish> No, I don't have a slow connection, but I don't like waiting.
[17:35] <koruptidpryde> Netcowboy, microsoft vpn?
[17:35] <DarkKnight> mooded; i used 640 x 480.....but on ubuntu...this resoution is very different
[17:35] <soundray> Lucifer__: which version of Ubuntu do you have?
[17:35] <Lucifer__> soundray latest 8.10
[17:35] <Netcowboy> koruptidpryde,  pptp.relakks.com I'm tryn to connect to this
[17:36] <magnetro1> twocats1fish→ the ubuntu CDs will download as fast as your connection, especially if you get it via bittorrent
[17:36] <soundray> Lucifer__: have you looked at the help?
[17:36] <soundray> !samba > Lucifer__
[17:36] <fus10nx> if I setup a cron job can I just schedule it to run 1 time only?
[17:36] <koruptidpryde> Netcowboy, is that a microsoft pptp?.... if so you have ti enable MPPE with 128-bit and stateful encryption
[17:36] <Shoopuf> How do I get PHPMyAdmin onto my website, I'm using Apache and Hardy LTS... Website works but need PHPMyAdmin.. i only have command line access, no GUI
[17:36] <Lucifer__> soundray im gonna read it now
[17:36] <mooded> DarkKnight, that sounds pretty awkward.. what do you mean with "it is very different" ?
[17:36] <fus10nx> I am trying to launch the same program on 2 seperate machines at the same time so I figured making a script to launch the program and it's switches would be fine and then I can just setup cron to run them both since each will be ntp time sync'd
[17:36] <fus10nx> just wanted to make sure i could do a cron to run only 1 time
[17:37] <TheGreatGoatBahh> Does anyone know if ShipIt is actually shipping the CDs yet ?
[17:37] <DarkKnight> mooded; well it seems to be smaller....in ubuntu
[17:37] <soundray> Lucifer__: did you have to install samba when you enabled sharing?
[17:37] <ActionParsnip1> fus10nx: sounds fine
[17:38] <koruptidpryde> Shoopuf, phpmyadmin needs to go into the hosted directory.... from there you'll need to edit the config file for phpmyadmin
[17:38] <Netcowboy> koruptidpryde, I'm brb I'll come to ask later
[17:38] <sammi_curr72> mooded: can you take a look at that paste file?
[17:38] <YmS> soundray Lucifer here I'm gonna reboot Ubuntu moment please
[17:39] <perlsyntax_> How do i install the emacs 23 on ubuntu?
[17:39] <soundray> YmS: always a good idea after installing a service
[17:39] <mooded> DarkKnight, so if everything looks smaller this can mean 1) you currently use a higher res than 640x480 2) you use another, smaller, monitor ? ;) 3) somehow the screen doesnt fill all parts of your monitor ?

[17:42] <mooded> DarkKnight, umm sorry no idea..
[17:42] <Azureus> ActionParsnip1: yes
[17:43] <mooded> DarkKnight, somewhere in the system->settings options i guess
[17:43] <ActionParsnip1> Azureus: just checking
[17:43] <Azureus> ActionParsnip1: but the thing is that ssh can't tunnel udp connections
[17:44] <ActionParsnip1> Azureus: http://martybugs.net/smoothwall/puttyvnc.cgi may help, its for vnc but you can use the tunnel for anything
[17:44] <Azureus> ActionParsnip1: i'll take a look..thank you

[17:51] <lostinside> Sorry koruptidpryde  I had to do somthing , I update it , then I goto connection manger and add a new vpn but I can't connect cause connection manger assume that there's no internet connection cuase I'm using gnome-ppp
[17:51] <sinan2> mooded: thanks !

[17:51] <sigmab3ta> how would i make it do an infinite number of lines
[17:51] <rdw200169_> sigmab3ta: that will do it
[17:51] <mooded> sinan2, np.
[17:52] <sigmab3ta> well by default tail only does 10 lines
[17:52] <rdw200169_> sigmab3ta: the -f
[17:52] <rdw200169_> sigmab3ta: check the man page on what -f does ;)
[17:52] <transporter> OXYPH i typed plugins in
[17:52] <transporter> now what m i searching for????
[17:52] <ActionParsnip1> sinan2: do you have 3d drivers installed?
[17:52] <sigmab3ta> yaeh it says it appends data... but i only see 10 lines and i'm fairly sure the log is longer than that
[17:53] <koruptidpryde> lostinside, PPTP is not a connection on its own... you have to have a primary connection first
[17:53] <oxyph> transporter: scroll all the way down to the bottom of the page, and try and find the version of Shockwave Flash
[17:53] <rdw200169_> sigmab3ta: it's still running, when syslog adds something, it appends to stdout, the terminal
[17:53] <manzur> hello
[17:53] <manzur> how are you people
[17:53] <manzur> ?
[17:53] <transporter> see it is showing that i already downloaded the correct flash player java is enabled but still no youtube
[17:53] <rdw200169_> sigmab3ta: unless you specify somewhere else, but that's kinda pointless b/c syslog is already a file...

[17:53] <mark___> We're still alive
[17:53] <manzur> hello mark

[17:54] <NekroJakub> Okay, I'm on a LiveCD now, about to install Ubuntu again after a critical situation... Anyway, I have some unallocated space for use, but when I choose the Guided - Use longest unallocated space option in the installer it shows Ubuntu taking all of the HDD after the operation, and I don't want to take any risks... So, does it just show it like that but in reality it'll just use the free space? I really, really would like to, you know, keep my data i
[17:54] <Guest25484> yo
[17:54] <transporter> stop it with the jokes now tell me what????
[17:54] <sigmab3ta> rdw200169_: are you sure /var/syslog is the right file? im getting a completely different output from dmesg and tail

[17:54] <manzur> hello ElFede
[17:54] <transporter> comon Mark

[17:54] <rdw200169_> sigmab3ta: you can do /var/log/messages too
[17:54] <sigmab3ta> no that's what you put before
[17:55] <ElFede> it's a linux distro
[17:55] <koruptidpryde> lostinside, try adding your PPP to network manager.... I believe it supports PPP now
[17:55] <ElFede> cuban linux
[17:55] <lostinside> koruptidpryde, I'm connecting to internet using dailup usb modem , so I can't connect it with connection manger that's why I'm using gnomeppp
[17:55] <ElFede> anyway, i'm having problems with DCOPserver
[17:55] <YmS> soundray: i just rebooted shared a folder, but how do i find it in Windows Vista
[17:55] <sigmab3ta> rdw200169_: i think it's /var/log/messages
[17:55] <ElFede> i'm from the Live CD now
[17:56] <koruptidpryde> lostinside, hmm.... okay, give me a moment to think this through
[17:56] <ActionParsnip1> transporter: sudo apt-get update; sudo apt-get install flashplayer-nonfree nspluginwrapper; nspluginwrapper -i /usr/lib/flashplugin-nonfree/libflashplayer.so
[17:56] <soundray> YmS: don't know about Vista, sorry

[17:56] <transporter> mark r u there???????
[17:56] <manzur> i want to ask you people something
[17:56] <ElFede> but when I boot from the HD installation, it says that DCOPserver is not active
[17:56] <manzur> do you know
[17:56] <Nikyo> Hi I have a question about Firestarter on Ubunto 8.10 Ibex. For some reason when I try to connect from another computer to ubuntu via VNC firestarter block the connection of the ubuntu computers name, but not the i.p. address of the ubuntu computer. Even if I add the i.p. and name of the other connecting computer in the firestarter policy.
[17:56] <rdw200169_> sigmab3ta: forgive me, i find the syslog to be much more useful than messages, you must be debugging a driver issue or something
[17:56] <manzur> why galaxium messenger
[17:56] <manzur> is like dead
[17:56] <koruptidpryde> lostinside, what error message (if any) does it give you?
[17:56] <manzur> this project is like dead
[17:56] <sigmab3ta> rdw200169_: no, nothing of the sort, im just curious
[17:56] <transporter> what should i do?????
[17:56] <sigmab3ta> rdw200169_:  the day i stop learning is the day i die
[17:57] <transporter> i cannot see youtube videos
[17:57] <rdw200169_> sigmab3ta: well, it's one of my to 10 favorite commands, tail -f
[17:57] <YmS> soundray maybe you can tell if ubuntu uses a "workgroup" ?
[17:57] <rdw200169_> sigmab3ta: mostly b/c it works over ssh
[17:57] <lostinside> koruptidpryde,  no error on connection manger cause I can't click on it :/
[17:57] <ActionParsnip1> transporter: run that command I gave you in terminal
[17:57] <soundray> YmS: can you open a terminal and run 'smbclient -L localhost'. Your share should be listed. Hit Return when asked for a password
[17:57] <ActionParsnip1> transporter: sudo apt-get update; sudo apt-get install flashplayer-nonfree nspluginwrapper; nspluginwrapper -i /usr/lib/flashplugin-nonfree/libflashplayer.so
[17:57] <transporter> tell me the command one more time
[17:57] <rdw200169_> Nikyo: you should get messages in the syslog of dropped traffic
[17:57] <lostinside> I mean I can't click on the vpn connection I create
[17:57] <YmS> soundray im gonna try it
[17:57] <ActionParsnip1> transporter: then close all firefoxes
[17:58] <benjamin> hi
[17:58] <benjamin> I need some help...
[17:58] <ActionParsnip1> !ask | benjamin
[17:58] <koruptidpryde> lostinside... if you left click on connection manager and go to the subheading "vpn" it doesn't list the vpn you added?
[17:58] <rdw200169_> Nikyo: try this: cat /var/log/syslog | grep IP_ADDRESS_OF_CONNECTING_COMPUTER
[17:58] <sigmab3ta> rdw200169_: for the record it was kern.log i was looking for =)
[17:58] <ActionParsnip1> transporter: when you fire it up you'll have flash
[17:58] <rdw200169_> sigmab3ta: see, you're already outpacing the teacher, good ;)
[17:59] <lostinside> koruptidpryde,  It's listed but not available
[17:59] <manzur> hello!
[17:59] <koruptidpryde> lostinside, hmm
[17:59] <benjamin> I can;t get proftpd to work..... I have set it up... etc.. it is active... I try and log into it from localhost and everytime I get login incorrect
[17:59] <benjamin> any ideas?
[17:59] <koruptidpryde> lostinside, is the dial-up USB modem connection to a wired or cell network?
[17:59] <rdw200169_> benjamin: proftpd is pretty complicated, have you considered vsftpd?
[18:00] <lostinside> Ev-do koruptidpryde
[18:00] <benjamin> nope
[18:00] <benjamin> :)
[18:00] <ElFede> i cannot start KDE when I boot from the HD installation, DCOPserver is missing
[18:00] <koruptidpryde> lostinside, EVDO should be supported under the "Mobile Broadband" section of NetMan
[18:00] <transporter> ok gimme just a min k action parsnip1
[18:00] <benjamin> is it better?
[18:00] <lostinside> ok wait lemme check
[18:01] <ActionParsnip1> transporter: np man, tab complete my name dude
[18:01] <sigmab3ta> next question: in dmesg, what is the meaning of those numbers on the left? i can surmise they're some method of keeping time, but it's incomprehensible to me
[18:01] <YmS> soundray: how do change the workgroup ?
[18:01] <rdw200169_> sigmab3ta: it's like the unix time in complicated form
[18:01] <rdw200169_> sigmab3ta: zulu time on crack
[18:01] <rdw200169_> sigmab3ta: down to the millisecond i believe
[18:02] <ElFede> what is DCOPserver?
[18:02] <benjamin> I am trying vsftp
[18:02] <sigmab3ta> i see
[18:02] <Nikyo> rdw200169_: I know it is dropping the connection when I use the ubuntu computers name. It's weird becasue I have allowed that computer to connect to the ubuntu computer using the policy in firestarter. So it can be a port that firestarter is blocking, because any port that is being requested should be allow per poilcy. Connecting to the i.p. address accoss the LAN to ubuntu comptuer is fine, just not requesting a name. If I disable fiestarte
[18:02] <Nikyo> r, I can connected using the ubuntu computer name.
[18:02] <koruptidpryde> lostinside, I have to admit to not being a guru.... so I'm sort of bouncing ideas in hopes that we reach a fix for you.. the "two heads are better than one" theory, lol
[18:02] <rdw200169_> sigmab3ta: syslog puts those in a more useful form for you ;)
[18:03] <mark___> So. Linux to Mac file transfer
[18:03] <ActionParsnip1> mark___: id use samba
[18:03] <koruptidpryde> mark___, samba will == win
[18:03] <YmS> Stephan nee
[18:03] <rdw200169_> Nikyo: unless there's a NAT Firewall getting in the way
[18:03] <Nikyo> rdw200169_: sorry I was typing to fast, forgive SP
[18:03] <lostinside> koruptidpryde,  sure lol
[18:03] <rdw200169_> Nikyo: are you doing this through a NAT Router?
[18:03] <koruptidpryde> mark___, you can also share via NFS.... will be a little harder to do tho
[18:03] <mark___> What about my friend's ignorance of his computer's name?
[18:04] <mark___> How do I cure that?
[18:04] <koruptidpryde> mark___,  hammer?
[18:04] <ActionParsnip1> mark___: get him to find it out
[18:04] <mark___> He doesn't know how. It's a Mac
[18:04] <tolstiy> anybody uses wm-based phones?
[18:04] <sigmab3ta> rdw200169_: well tailing the kern.log is making it eradable too
[18:04] <koruptidpryde> mark___, don't hate on the mac.... one sec and I'll see what I can do
[18:04] <Lucifer_> tolstiy yes
[18:05] <Lucifer_> !ask
[18:05] <sigmab3ta> i mostly just wanted to see if i was right about whether or not it was timekeeping
[18:05] <koruptidpryde> mark___, is he on the same physical network at the moment?
[18:05] <mark___> No
[18:05] <transporter> k actionparnship1
[18:05] <mark___> He's offline
[18:05] <transporter> awwww
[18:05] <ActionParsnip1> transporter: better?
[18:05] <koruptidpryde> mark___, okay.... so how were you planning to get to the shared files?
[18:05] <soundray> YmS: by editing /etc/samba/smb.conf -- see https://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/serverguide/C/configuring-samba.html
[18:05] <transporter> k i typed in the command that he gave me
[18:05] <mark___> I was planning to send him one
[18:05] <transporter> gave me a bunch of stuff
[18:05] <tolstiy> i can't get access to my phonebook and storage card
[18:06] <transporter> hmmm
[18:06] <bigtimenoob> Hey guys I have a question, I deleted wine files doing sudo nautilus , and now when I do sudo apt-get purge wine, then sudo apt-get install wine, it just shows the same wine file that has them all deleted
[18:06] <lostinside> koruptidpryde,  didn't found that but I got into another thing, I install Kvpnc I got some error messages
[18:06] <bigtimenoob> any ideas?
[18:06] <koruptidpryde> mark___, that I understand.... but are you trying to do so over a network or the internet?
[18:06] <YmS> soundray: I love you :)
[18:06] <ActionParsnip1> transporter: install all it says and the wrapper will manage flash for you
[18:06] <mark___> The internet
[18:06] <lostinside> koruptidpryde,  debug: [pppd] sent [LCP ConfReq id=0x1 ]
[18:06] <lostinside> debug: [pppd] LCP: timeout sending Config-Requests
[18:06] <Nikyo> rdw200169_: Nope.. this is going across the LAN. On another computer on the lan, I can add that to firestarter policy and then connect thru the local LAN like say my ubuntu computer is 192..168.1.50, If put that into vnc, no problem. Now if I put in the ubuntu name from that same computer on the lan and put in the Ubuntu computer name say "happyUbuntu" then it drops. Maybe I should talk to the firestarter DEV team?
[18:06] <transporter> no its says command not found
[18:07] <koruptidpryde> lostinside, be right with you
[18:07] <Azureus> How can i add new user accounts in openssh?
[18:07] <ActionParsnip1> transporter: at what point?
[18:07] <soundray> YmS: okay, let's plan our wedding
[18:07] <lostinside> :)
[18:07] <ActionParsnip1> Azureus: you dont, the local accounts are used
[18:07] <rdw200169_> Nikyo: did you add the host hames to /etc/hosts? so firestarter can translate the hostname to ip address?
[18:07] <YmS> lol
[18:07] <ActionParsnip1> transporter: can you pastebin me the who text?
[18:08] <koruptidpryde> mark___, then a "local" exchange method won't help you unless you guys set up a vpn.... I would recommend using a direct file transfer using pidgin.... the mac client I believe is "Adium"
[18:08] <transporter> it gives me a bunch of stuff says something multiverse and says at the end something like this
[18:08] <mark___> Pidgin fts are damned slow :(
[18:08] <transporter> im trying
[18:08] <ActionParsnip1> !paste | transporter
[18:08] <AzizLight> hi everybody
[18:08] <ActionParsnip1> mark___: fts?
[18:09] <transporter> E: Could not get lock /var/lib/dpkg/lock - open (11 Resource temporarily unavailable)
[18:09] <transporter> E: Unable to lock the administration directory (/var/lib/dpkg/), is another process using it?
[18:09] <transporter> E: Could not get lock /var/lib/dpkg/lock - open (11 Resource temporarily unavailable)
[18:09] <transporter> E: Unable to lock the administration directory (/var/lib/dpkg/), is another process using it?
[18:09] <transporter> bash: nspluginwrapper: command not found
[18:09] <FloodBot3> transporter: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[18:09] <mark___> file transfers
[18:09] <rdw200169_> Nikyo: in order to use hostnames in place of ip's, you HAVE to either have a DNS server that can translate that hostname (that firestarter can reach) or, you have to have an entry in /etc/hosts
[18:09] <illissius`> hi
[18:09] <ActionParsnip1> transporter: use pastebin!
[18:09] <transporter> there it is man
[18:09] <illissius`> problem: my VTs are sometimes (e.g. now) completely blank
[18:09] <benjamin> great thanks :)
[18:09] <AzizLight> I know there is a shortcut to use the argument used with the previous command in a terminal but what is that shortcut please?
[18:09] <koruptidpryde> mark___, okay.... well then you need to find a direct connection method that is linux/mac.... let  me attempt to do the work for you by google. :-P
[18:09] <UnknownUser56> My ubuntu 8.10 iso finished downloading,what problems do I have to face during install ?
[18:09] <benjamin> it is much easier
[18:09] <rdw200169_> Nikyo: otherwise, firestarter has no idea what to use for ip address, b/c hostnames don't matter to firestarter
[18:09] <ActionParsnip1> transporter: do you have synaptic running or anything like that
[18:09] <transporter> ya
[18:09] <Azureus> ActionParsnip1: well...if i want to connect to my ssh server using openssh client for windows i do not get to chose the user..instead i get to write the password for a user that does not exist on the ssh server's machine
[18:09] <UnknownUser56> any experience for installing it,do tell
[18:09] <rdw200169_> Nikyo: or iptables, for that matter
[18:09] <mark___> I was going to use gFTP
[18:09] <illissius`> (I ctrl-alt-F* from X to something else, and get a black screen. ctrl-alt-F7 back to X works fine.)
[18:09] <ActionParsnip1> transporter: thats why, close it when its appropriate
[18:10] <transporter> close it now
[18:10] <transporter> and then type in the command
[18:10] <LongbowSir> Greetings I have a question about the possibility of reverting from Ubuntu 8.10 back to 8.4  ???
[18:10] <ActionParsnip1> Azureus: how do you connect to the ssh server?
[18:10] <ikonia> LongbowSir: not really
[18:10] <rdw200169_> LongbowSir: good luck ...
[18:10] <LongbowSir> darn !
[18:10] <ActionParsnip1> transporter: yep, you can only have 1 app connected to the packages
[18:10] <UnknownUser56> why longbowsir ? Anything particlar
[18:10] <Azureus> ActionParsnip1: ssh -w0:0 serveraddress
[18:10] <transporter> oh ok
[18:10] <koruptidpryde> mark___, if he is connecting to you then you need to install an FTP daemon on your system and forward the FTP port on your router to your machine
[18:10] <ActionParsnip1> !downgrade | LongbowSir
[18:11] <transporter> can u gimme the command one more time plz :)
[18:11] <LongbowSir> all My video quit since the change to 8.10
[18:11] <ActionParsnip1> Azureus: try ssh username@server
[18:11] <koruptidpryde> lostinside, okay....  Try setting vga=0x317 or similar as a kernel boot option
[18:11] <soundray> !bootoption | illissius`
[18:11] <soundray> !bootoptions | illissius`
[18:11] <ActionParsnip1> transporter: better?
[18:11] <Azureus> ActionParsnip1:but i need the -w0:0 parameter..i'm gonna try ssh -w0:0 username@server
[18:12] <koruptidpryde> lostinside, ouch.... okay, let me see...
[18:12] <ActionParsnip1> Azureus: sounds good
[18:12] <lostinside> koruptidpryde,  it's not listed
[18:12] <illissius`> soundray: it's inconsistent though... after some boots, the VTs work fine, at other times they don't (like now)
[18:12] <illissius`> i have no clue what makes the difference
[18:12] <Nikyo> rdw200169_: Ah.. that that's why.. I'll work on what you said.. I can understand now what is going on, Thank You so much for your help!
[18:12] <Azureus> ActionParsnip1:it works! thanks again :)
[18:12] <rdw200169_> Nikyo: hey, no problem
[18:12] <illissius`> (also, I can still type into them and make things happen, I just don't see what I'm doing)
[18:13] <south_korea> :> hi ~
[18:13] <koruptidpryde> lostinside, http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=6178081#post6178081
[18:13] <LongbowSir> so is their any time table as to when the fixes will come out so video chat will work again?
[18:13] <soundray> illissius`: it's video mode black magic. Try my suggestion -- alternatives to 0x317 (which is for 1024x768) are here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/VESA_BIOS_Extensions#Linux_video_mode_numbers
[18:13] <ted_____> Hello, can somebody help me with apt-get issue?
[18:13] <koruptidpryde> lostinside, googled "PPP ubuntu sudani"
[18:13] <Nikyo> rdw200169_: If I figured out how to connect to SSH on Ubuntu, from my blackbery, like I did last night, I'll be able to get this to work..
[18:13] <ikonia> ted_____: just ask the question
[18:14] <illissius`> soundray: ok, i'll try that.. thanks
[18:14] <koruptidpryde> lostinside, hope that helps
[18:14] <lostinside> koruptidpryde,  actully I wrote that one :S but it's about connection with wvdial
[18:14] <Azureus> 1 more question: how can i access the sshd_config file?
[18:14] <ikonia> Azureus: open it in a text editor, /etc/ssh/sshd_config
[18:14] <koruptidpryde> lostinside, >_< afraid I'm at the limits of my helpfulness
[18:14] <ActionParsnip1> Azureus: sudo nano / gksudo gedit
[18:15] <ted_____> I deleted some files on a program, then decided I didn't need the program anymore so I did apt-get purge <program> , now I need the program so I did apt-get install <program> and its still missing the core files on it that were deleted
[18:15] <Azureus> ActionParsnip1:ok thanks
[18:15] <lostinside> koruptidpryde,  it's ok thanks :)

[18:16] <DIFH-iceroot> ValentineXX: tab and enter
[18:16] <ValentineXX> DIFH-iceroot: enter doing nothing

[18:17] <weewere> i ended up with 2.6.25 after upgrading, but apparently 2.6.27 is the latest.  I can install 2.6.27-generic through synaptic, but I don't see how to get the ubuntu version
[18:18] <ValentineXX> !wine
[18:18] <ikonia> weewere: how did you end up with 2.6.25
[18:18] <DIFH-iceroot> weewere: 8.04 or 8.10 ?
[18:18] <LongbowSir> Is their a fix so video chat will work with 8.10 ,it worked under 8.4 but not since the upgrade
[18:18] <weewere> ikonia: it was the default after upgrading from 8.04 to 8.10
[18:18] <ActionParsnip1> !mp3
[18:19] <bkw> ikonia: it is not a big script.. I'm pretty sure my variable definitions are correct so I donno why it complains about rmin and wmin
[18:19] <ikonia> weewere: there is no 2.6.25 kernelin the repos
[18:19] <ikonia> bkw: join #bash
[18:19] <bkw> already there
[18:19] <droopsta915> Whats recommended to install today. 8.04 or 8.10?
[18:20] <ikonia> weewere: ok, a collegue has just shown me where the .25 kernel is
[18:20] <weewere> ikonia: in synaptic, the linux-image-386 package lists the latest version as <IP_ADDRESS>.3
[18:20] <Meshach> Hello everyone. I installed wine and ies4linux (A internet explorer emulator for linux) and it's not working properly, it says "You are not allowed to do that because the administrator has restrictions in place"..
[18:20] <ikonia> weewere: yes, your the second person to ask this question and we couldn't figure out where .25 was coming from
[18:20] <Azureus> i see that on www.perturb.org/dysplay/entry/770/ it sais "Note: the PermitTunnel option must be turned on..." but when i checked the sshd_config file i haven't found any "PermitTunnel" ..should i add it to sshd_config file?
[18:20] <Neremor> hello!
[18:21] <Neremor> i don't know whether i should ask here or in kde channel or somewhere else, but i just give it a try ;)
[18:21] <Neremor> ok
[18:21] <ikonia> weewere: so when you instal .27 does it now show up in your grub menu ?
[18:21] <Neremor> i would like to create my own kdm theme
[18:21] <remy> Can someone help me get 8 bpp working on ubuntu 8.10 for me?
[18:21] <Neremor> can i download a template for that somewhere?
[18:21] <Azureus> i see that on www.perturb.org/dysplay/entry/770/ it sais "Note: the PermitTunnel option must be turned on..." but when i checked the sshd_config file i haven't found any "PermitTunnel" ..should i add it to sshd_config file?
[18:21] <Neremor> where are kdm themes saved?
[18:22] <weewere> ikonia: it does, the issue is that i can only get 2.6.27-generic through synaptic, where i'd prefer the version with ubuntu patches
[18:22] <philsheldon> hi all, need some basic help, using 8.10 and need to reset a users xorg.conf, seems like the file has gone and dpkg-reconfigure doesn't edit screen info anymore. Is there a command to run the new xorg config GUI? help
[18:22] <ikonia> weewere: what patches ?
[18:22] <ikonia> weewere: the .27 has ubuntu related patches in
[18:22] <ikonia> weewere: what makes you think it's missing patches and what patches do you want ?
[18:23] <droopsta915> Whats better today. 8.04 or 8.10?
[18:23] <ikonia> droopsta915: depends on your needs and wants
[18:23] <dek> I am trying to install a program called TkIsem, when i try to execute it I get: "Error in startup script: couldn't load file "/usr/local/tkisem/tkisem.so": libtk8.3.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory". I have tk8.3 package installed. Any idea how I can fix it?
[18:24] <remy> does anyone know how to get 8 bpp working on ubuntu 8.10? I'm using the built in drivers that 8.10 offers
[18:24] <ikonia> dek: you've compiled it against the wrong librarys/paths
[18:24] <weewere> ikonia: i assumed there was an ubuntu-specific kernel since I've never had to install a generic kernel before, but if not I guess there's no problem
[18:24] <droopsta915> ikonia: I use it for pictures, music, internet.
[18:24] <gwennn> hello everybody
[18:24] <ted_____> Is it possible to choose a specific directory which apt-get installs a program too?
[18:24] <tolstiy> hi
[18:24] <ikonia> weewere: generic is just a name as in X86, rather than 386/486/586/686 specific
[18:24] <ikonia> ted_____: no
[18:24] <philsheldon> anyone know the command to launch the new xorg.conf configuration GUI in 8.10??
[18:24] <Pici> weewere: 'ubuntu-specific'? All of the kernels in the repositories are compilbed by the Ubuntu devs.
[18:24] <dek> ikonia: i havent compiled it, I converted a .rpm package to .deb using alien
[18:25] <ikonia> droopsta915: 8.04 will be supported for longer
[18:25] <weewere> ikonia: gotcha, thanks
[18:25] <ikonia> dek: there you go then
[18:25] <ikonia> dek: it's not meant for an ubuntu system so it wants things in the wrong locations/different versions
[18:25] <droopsta915> THANKS
[18:25] <remy> so no one knows how to get 8 bpp to work correctly in ubuntu 8.10?
[18:25] <gwennn> I'd like to change some icons like the trash one...where is?
[18:25] <Meshach> Hello everyone. I installed wine and ies4linux (A internet explorer emulator for linux) and it's not working properly, it says "You are not allowed to do that because the administrator has restrictions in place"..
[18:25] <Meshach> Anyone know how to fix this?
[18:25] <dek> ikonia: ok, so I guess I will have to create symbolic links :P
[18:25] <Finnish> Is ATI 8.11-driver working ok?
[18:26] <ikonia> dek: that won't fix version issues,
[18:26] <remy> yes, the ati driver is working fine.
[18:26] <ted_____> Is it possible to move C:drive on wine to a different location on computer?
[18:27] <ikonia> ted_____: should be yes
[18:28] <gwennn> how can I change trash icon?
[18:28] <koruptidpryde> mark___, https://launchpad.net/linuxdcpp http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Direct_Connect_(file_sharing)
[18:28] <sirjoebob> gwenn: you can change it by getting a different icon set or changing it under system, preferences, appearance
[18:29] <gwennn> thanks
[18:30] <sirjoebob> gwennn, np. you can get more themes at gnome-look.org :)
[18:30] <szx0> i'm trying to save my firewall configuration so that it reloads on reboot, but for some reason on reboot my saved iptables.rules is empty to default?
[18:31] <remy> fixme:xrandr:X11DRV_XRandR_SetCurrentMode Cannot change screen BPP from 32 to 8 :: someone help with this?
[18:31] <philsheldon> anyone know how to force 8.10 to auto detect x settings?
[18:32] <fus10nx> if I have a bash file called mplayer.bsh and I want that to start everytime I turn on my machine, what is the command to do that? Becuase I can't just put ./mplayer.bsh   --- needs to have the full path for instance /home/me/mplayer.bsh -- but that doesn't work I need the ./ before it I belive but then it gets confused with file paths
[18:32] <fus10nx> any idea?
[18:32] <ddgoose> philsheldon, sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg
[18:33] <Jeremy93283> Anyone know if there is image software out there for a web site that can do boxed descriptions like flickr has ( http://www.flickr.com/photos/bea_k63w-wa/2832193449/ ) and can zoom in and out of the image like on Google Maps?
[18:33] <fus10nx> doh
[18:33] <fus10nx> nevermind
[18:33] <philsheldon> thanks for responding, that command doesn't work anymore in 8.10, only configures keys etc?
[18:33] <szx0> I configured my firewall, setup my pre-up/post-down rules... but on reboot my iptables.rules file does not contain any of the rules that I added.....is there some other process or application that wipes out my iptables.rules file on boot up????
