[14:13] <bytchn^ncryptn> hi I try to set my ub untu 7.10 to show the text during boot, and it doesnt work, just shows black screen, how to fix?
[14:13] <IdleOne> Terminal: I told you # linux or http://www.linuxassist.net
[14:13] <carenet> no just asking, coz I run a Data Center company, in Kenya I do outsourcing business
[14:14] <Terminal> cool, IdleOne
[14:14] <Terminal> i didn't see, sorry
[14:14] <defrysk> bytchn^ncryptn, sudo apt-get install startupmanager
[14:14] <defrysk> and use it
[14:15] <bytchn^ncryptn> defrysk, I have that, and I've set it the same as I did in feisty, but it doesnt seem to work in gtsy
[14:15] <carenet> Terminal : do you think I can get a company that can give me outsourcing job?
[14:15] <carenet> Terminal : there in Brazil
[14:15] <defrysk> bytchn^ncryptn, ouch then I do not know , maybe the newer version in getdeb.net works ?
[14:15] <IdleOne> carenet: this is not the place to ask about that. please join #ubuntu-offtopic
[14:15] <Terminal> outsourcing job?
[14:16] <Terminal> i didn't get
[14:16] <OrionDude> quite offtopic IMHO
[14:16] <bytchn^ncryptn> defrysk, I dont think it is a problem with startupmanager itself, as I've also tried manually editing the file
[14:17] <Pinchiukas> anybody please help me connect my laptop to the internet via the pcmcia card
[14:17] <kbrooks> ubot3,
[14:17] <gluonman> Anybody tell me why the new versions of wine from the winehq repositories aren't recommended by wiki.ubuntu?
[14:17] <kbrooks> !illegal > kbrooks
[14:17] <mifritscher> does anyone else these massive problems with mounting?
[14:17] <Terminal> carenet, i didn't get it
[14:17] <Terminal> carenet, outsourcing?
[14:17] <Terminal> what did you talk about?
[14:17] <IdleOne> gluonman: because they have not been packaged yet
[14:17] <Sharpie> um, why doesn't the ubuntu partition manager (in the installation) let me make more than 1 partition after a primary one?
[14:18] <gluonman> IdleOne, so the installation would fail?
[14:18] <IdleOne> gluonman: not neccesarily
[14:18] <gluonman> IdleOne, or it would just be liable to run improperly?
[14:18] <Terminal> but the tv series host doesn't support download manager, what can I do ?
[14:19] <IdleOne> gluonman: it may very well run perfectly but if it doesnt you will need to know how to fix it
[14:19] <m4ytt> ompaul does this mean anything to ya. LC_ALL=(unset). xserver-xorg broken or not fully installed. when i updated i did get error messages saying 4 things were broken when installed
[14:19] <Pinchiukas> anybody please help me connect my laptop to the internet via the pcmcia card
[14:19] <Sharpie> um, why doesn't the ubuntu partition manager (in the installation) let me make more than 1 partition after a primary one?
[14:19] <SlimG> Where in Gnome is it possible to change the file associations (mime) ?
[14:19] <gluonman> IdleOne, so it's basically it's only recommended for those who know their shit?
[14:19] <Terminal> on EUA, is illegal to download tv series?
[14:19] <IdleOne> gluonman: yeah but please watch your language
[14:20] <gluonman> IdleOne, I'm sorry. I will.
[14:20] <Terminal> dudes
[14:20] <[chr0n0s]> how do i set a select a default window managet
[14:20] <[chr0n0s]> managet*
[14:20] <IdleOne> Terminal: do you need any help with Ubuntu?
[14:20] <defrysk> SlimG, rightclick file , > properties > open with
[14:20] <Terminal> not now
[14:21] <Sharpie> why doesn't the ubuntu partition manager (in the installation) let me make more than 1 partition after a primary one?
[14:21] <Terminal> but, IdleOne i'd like one thing, if on EUA is illegal download tv series
[14:21] <bytchn^ncryptn> hi I try to set my ub untu 7.10 to show the text during boot, and it doesnt work, just shows black screen, how to fix?
[14:21] <carenet> Terminal : Yes!
[14:21] <IdleOne> Terminal: ok then please stick to Ubutnu support or type /join #ubuntu-offtopic to discus other subjects
[14:21] <Terminal> cool
[14:21] <kbrooks> !illegal > Terminal
[14:21] <Terminal> now, i  know
[14:21] <Terminal> thx
[14:21] <[chr0n0s]> sharpie there is a limit on primary partitons, you can make 4 primary or 3 primary and 1 extended
[14:22] <Sharpie> um
[14:22] <OrionDude> i really need a pop3 mail server installed ... but i really lack the (mental) ability to use ubuntu server so i need the desktop version ...
[14:22] <Sharpie> how should i partition my free space then?
[14:22] <[chr0n0s]> Sharpie, you are using dual boot ?
[14:22] <m4ytt> wastrel  does this mean anything to ya. LC_ALL=(unset). xserver-xorg broken or not fully installed. when i updated i did get error messages saying 4 things were broken when installed
[14:22] <Sharpie> [chr0n0s]: yes, i have 2 ntfs partitions, one primary one logical, and around 31gb free space for linux
[14:23] <SlimG> defrysk: thanks!
[14:23] <defrysk> SlimG, yw :)
[14:23] <wolflinuxguy> anyone know how to speed up 3d apps in wine?
[14:23] <worthawholebean> Is the alternate cd's install any different from the DVD's text mode install?
[14:23] <[chr0n0s]> Sharpie, then you can make 1 more primary and 1 logical, i think primary for /home and ( swap + / in logical)
[14:24] <Sharpie> [chr0n0s]: uh, that's now good |:
[14:24] <Sharpie> [chr0n0s]: how about if i make / primary, and /home primary and a logical swap after home?
[14:25] <gutsyAleExXxX> does compiz-fusion work with ATI restricted drivers in Gutsy?
[14:25] <[chr0n0s]> Sharpie, try it.. i doubt you can do that
[14:25] <Slaughte1> Anyone know how to go back to defaults in the Appearance tab in Ubuntu 7.10?
[14:25] <Sharpie> [chr0n0s]: you can
[14:25] <[chr0n0s]> then do it, where is the problem ?
[14:25] <Sharpie> [chr0n0s]: it lets you create 2 primary partitions one after another, but only 1 logical after primary
[14:25] <defrysk> Slaughte1, select human theme ?
[14:25] <worthawholebean> Has anyone else had trouble installing 7.10 on an iMac?
[14:25] <Sharpie> [chr0n0s]: cause i'm not sure =o
[14:26] <Sharpie> [chr0n0s]: oh wait no you can't
[14:26] <Slaughte1> @defrysk: Yeah, but the fonts was messed up by the other there, and it doesn't revert when I choose human.
[14:26] <[chr0n0s]> Sharpie, no need to be sure, just go and try it out.. if you can, then make 3 partitions, else go for hat i said
[14:26] <[chr0n0s]> hat i said*
[14:26] <Sharpie> [chr0n0s]: but you can make a logical, and after that a primary and another logical
[14:27] <Sharpie> [chr0n0s]: that'd be better wouldn't it?
[14:27] <[chr0n0s]> i suggest you just make /home primary, don't care about others
[14:27] <adrian> can anyone point to a howto that works about installing compiz on ati x600
[14:27] <Sharpie> [chr0n0s]: why home?
[14:27] <adrian> i have a dell latitude d810
[14:27] <defrysk> Slaughte1, fonts are all sans , exep for window title = sans bold and fixed with font = monospace
[14:27] <adrian> i have debian lenny installed
[14:27] <[chr0n0s]> Sharpie, so that your settings are saved across installations
[14:27] <orgthingy> i hate dell for some reason?
[14:27] <orgthingy> !
[14:28] <Gaming1> Is it possible to upgrade from Ubuntu Feisty Fawn to Gutsy using a Live CD?
[14:28] <roberto> hi
[14:28] <Sharpie> [chr0n0s]: i'm not gonna do any more installations =o
[14:28] <neil__> hi everyone
[14:28] <Sharpie> [chr0n0s]: 'cept for hardy, i suppose
[14:28] <[chr0n0s]> Sharpie, so you need it, simple
[14:28] <roberto> no one know an app for a disk format in hfs???
[14:29] <neil__> does anyone knows a way of switching from kubuntu to ubuntu ? should i just apt-get ubuntu-desktop or something ?
[14:29] <Slaughte1> @defrysk: Thanks, that was fixed by choosing Human. Problem is that font sizes were changed by the other theme, and I don't know what the defaults are
[14:29] <deaddreamer> anyone know how to set up ushare for xbox360??
[14:29] <roberto> ita chat???
[14:29] <gluonman> Question: I have a / (5gib), /opt (3gib), /home (30gib), and swap (1gib) partitions. I'm kind of new to all of this, so I may sound stupid. When I download packages from synaptic, they have tended to exclusively use the limited space that I have on my root. The root is out of available space I have a few more things I need to install. Is it possible to use the space on another partition for those installations?
[14:30] <roberto> la chat italiana?
[14:30] <Sharpie> [chr0n0s]: ok, how's this (already created 'em in the manager, haven't said ok yet): 1) swap, 2gb, logical. 2) home, 18gb, primary. 3) root, 15gb, logical
[14:30] <dalinian> Neil_, You can do apt-get install ubuntu-desktop, but things get quirky when you do.
[14:30] <defrysk> Slaughte1, I have adjusted the sizes to my prefernces , but i believe originally they were something like 9
[14:30] <adrian> can anyone point to a howto that works about installing compiz on ati x600
[14:31] <orgthingy> g2g
[14:31] <dalinian> Does anyone know how to overcome this error? http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/42346/
[14:32] <Slaughte1> defrysk: Oki, thanks. I just wish there wee a proper restore defaults. Guess I'll just play around then.
[14:32] <Sharpie> [chr0n0s]: are you there? =o
you have the same card as mine
[14:32] <trollung> I can't get my webcam working, I have installed gspca-source and spca5xx-source from synaptic, what I can find on internet is recommendations for these files but linked from a homepage altho I can't install these downloaded files...
are you using gutsy?
[14:32] <neil__> dalinian: install the kernel-headers ?
[14:32] <adrian> darkhack: can u help?

[14:33] <pedr1> Hi everyone
[14:33] <darkhack> First of all, your using gutsy right?
[14:33] <[chr0n0s]> can anyone help me with this, the xfwm4 won't start by default, i have to use xfwm4 --replace to start it.. any ideas how to fix this ?
[14:33] <pedr1> I have a quickcam messenger and I would like to make it run in ubuntu gutsy
[14:33] <defrysk> Slaughte1, you could chance it with : rm -rf ~/.gnome2/share/fonts/
First of all, your using gutsy right?
[14:33] <adrian> no i`m using Debian lenny
[14:34] <Yodude> hey, i'm out of disk space and GDM would not start. how can i restore some space ? i'm on 7.04
[14:34] <adrian> the same kernel as gutsy
[14:34] <adrian> it runs faster than ubuntu
[14:34] <pedr1> any help?
[14:34] <gluonman> I don't think anybody paid attention to my question. When I install things from synaptic, it automatically uses the space on my root partition (which only had 5gib on it). Is it possible to have those installations use the space on other partitions, like my 30gib /home partition?
[14:35] <Pinchiukas> I have a pcmcia 3g/edge/gprs card, can anyone help me connect to the internet?

[14:36] <b0r3d> hi. why i can't install irssi?
[14:36] <orgthingy> because u cant!
[14:36] <Slaughte1> defrysk: Well, some of the fonts were set to 10, and changing all seems just about right. I tested the High contrast large fonts theme, as I'm using a LCD TV as monitor for my notebook, and that theme changed all the fonts. I'll just stick to 10 for now, thanks for your input!
[14:36] <darkhack> there should be a repository for debian somewhere on the web if you look for it or visit compiz-fusion forum
[14:36] <b0r3d> can someone give me a decent sources.lst file
[14:36] <adrian> nope

[14:38] <darkhack> tried using ubuntu repository to install compiz on debain
[14:38] <adrian> nope
[14:38] <hastesaver> hi, I'd like to install Ubuntu on my MacBook.... advice?
[14:39] <gluonman> Anyone who can help me please. My installations from synaptic are exclusively using the space in my root partition (only 5gib on it). Is it possible for my installations to use the space in my other partitions, like my /home of 30gib?
[14:39] <hjmills> sensouci, try re-adding it to the panel?
[14:39] <adrian> the gutsy pachages should be compatibl;e with lenny
[14:39] <adrian> right?
[14:39] <hjmills> gluonman, no
[14:39] <hjmills> gluonman, most programs get put in /usr so you could put that on a seperate drive
[14:39] <darkhack> maybe but why don't u test it out
[14:39] <gluonman> hjmills, so once I've used up all the space on my /root I cannot install anything more?
[14:39] <sensouci> hjmills I have tried but no success
[14:40] <TAYCHAKAN> Spanish please!!
[14:40] <deaddreamer> anybody knows how to work ushare?
[14:40] <hjmills> gluonman, no - you have filled your drive. You could use gparted to shrink home and grow root if you wanted
[14:40] <orgthingy> frostwire!
[14:40] <sot65> I have feisty dynamic IP ADSL. In my Network Settings>DNS tab there is my router's(microcom AD2636) address only[<IP_ADDRESS>] under the DNS servers. often I shut down and restart router to be able to connect.
[14:40] <hjmills> !es
[14:40] <TAYCHAKAN> Hola
[14:40] <ubot3> Si busca ayuda en Español por favor entre en los canales #ubuntu-es, #kubuntu-es o #edubuntu-es, allí obtendrá mas ayuda.
[14:40] <darkhack> I wonder if debian will ever release a new os
[14:41] <hjmills> hastesaver, look in the wiki : help.ubuntu.com
[14:41] <gluonman> hjmills, I'll probably do that. Someone earlier had recommended to me, when I was learning about partitioning my hdd, that my root be that small and my /home be large. I have no idea why, it's proving very annoying right now.
[14:41] <adrian> i used debian for ages now :D
[14:41] <adrian> i`m used to it
[14:41] <adrian> tryed ubuntu to grate work for newbies
[14:41] <gluonman> hjmills, although gparted is having a tough time working for me.
[14:42] <gluonman> hjmills, I open it and then it gets stuck scanning the disk.
[14:42] <hjmills> gluonman, because most people install a load of programs then dont need any more after that so /usr wont grow after that
[14:42] <m4ytt> can any 1 help please. no gui
[14:42] <hjmills> gluonman, the recommended min size for / by ubuntu is 8GB for normal pcs i think
[14:42] <adrian> i think is the best user friendly distro out there
[14:42] <m4ytt> can any 1 help please no gui. does this mean anything to ya. LC_ALL=(unset). xserver-xorg broken or not fully installed. when i updated i did get error messages saying 4 things were broken when installed
[14:42] <stinger05> i keep getting this message when i want to install my backed-up packages using aptoncd: Cannot find filename or size tag
[14:42] <baty> ppl i need help to boot xubuntu by lan
[14:43] <stinger05> what can i do ?
[14:43] <gluonman> hjmills, I didn't really understand your comment about installing "a load of programs they don't need any more..." and the /usr growing. Can you clarify that point?
[14:43] <hjmills> m4ytt, you need to set your locale
[14:43] <stefg> gluonman: so what does df -h tell you about your free space on / now?
[14:43] <baty> how can i install a hcp3-server and a nfskernel server and tfpd
[14:44] <Pinchiukas> I have a pcmcia 3g/edge/gprs card, can anyone help me connect to the internet?
[14:44] <abcde_> Does anyone know when fusion .6 will be in the ubuntu repos, is it being worked on?  I tried git, and had some problems, but I'd prefer stable
[14:44] <gluonman> stefg, my free space is like 120 some mb.
its been awhile since I mess with debian, so are you able to compile or install the latest kernel and gnome?
[14:44] <hjmills> gluonman, when the average user has everything installed and setup they wont install lots of new programs often so /usr wont get bigger quickly but people are always making new docs etc so home increases in size faster
[14:44] <stefg> gluonman: run sudo apt-get autoclean. YOur space gets eaten up by /var/cache/apt/archives
[14:45] <hjmills> gluonman, i recommend you uninstall some programs you dont need then run gparted
[14:45] <gluonman> stefg, thanks.
[14:45] <hjmills> gluonman, or download the gparted live cd
[14:45] <baty> help plz!
[14:45] <hjmills> !askl
[14:45] <baty> how do i install apps
[14:45] <ubot3> Factoid askl not found
[14:45] <hjmills> !ask
[14:45] <ubot3> Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[14:45] <baty> in console
[14:45] <m4ytt> hjmills ok how can i do that ive jus done a little search but nothing helpful
[14:45] <baty> wich was the line_
[14:45] <hjmills> baty, sudo apt-get install <appname>
[14:45] <pepie34> how can i can update the "application" menu to the default user settings?
[14:45] <gluonman> hjmills, okay. I am going to try to expand the space on my /.
[14:45] <baty> ty
[14:45] <hastesaver> gluonman: be sure to backup first
[14:45] <hastesaver> gluonman: backup *everything* -- repartitioning can be very risky
[14:46] <stefg> gluonman: and it might me a good idea to move that folder over to the /home, and symlink it back to the old place. So you have a well filled apt cache in case of reinstall
[14:46] <hjmills> m4ytt, i think there is some locale stuff in /etc/environment
[14:46] <gluonman> hastesaver, everything is already backed up.
[14:46] <steevc> my Gutsy upgrade is hanging. should I kill it and try again?
[14:46] <hastesaver> gluonman: cool then, good luck to you :)
[14:46] <gluonman> stefg, how do I move folders to /home? And what folder were you talking about?
[14:46] <iverson> ubuntu
[14:46] <stinger05> i keep getting this message when i want to install my backed-up packages using aptoncd: Cannot find filename or size tag
[14:46] <stinger05> what can i do ?
[14:46] <gluonman> hastesaver, thanks. Good advise, as I've learned the hard way.
[14:46] <ompaul> steevc, wait an hour or two
[14:46] <hjmills> m4ytt, can you pastebin the output from `sudo apt-get -f install` please
[14:47] <ompaul> steevc, check out what is going on using a terminal and top
[14:47] <m4ytt> ok the only thing is i have to keep restarting to ubuntu and xp
[14:47] <pedro_> !info kde4
[14:47] <ubot3> Package kde4 does not exist in gutsy
[14:47] <orgthingy> g2g
[14:47] <ompaul> steevc, check for changes
[14:47] <hjmills> m4ytt, how come?
[14:47] <steevc> ompaul: I've download the files. it's hanging on configuring libjpeg62
[14:47] <pedro_> !info kdesktop
[14:47] <ubot3> kdesktop: miscellaneous binaries and files for the KDE desktop. In component main, is optional. Version 4:3.5.8-0ubuntu2 (gutsy), package size 810 kB, installed size 1876 kB
[14:47] <baty> how can i install apps in a live user
[14:47] <ompaul> steevc, wait a while
[14:47] <m4ytt> hjmills because ive got no gui
[14:47] <Caleb_> ok, even after i tick all those boxes (universe ect.) it still gives me "The software source for this package bcm 43xx-fwcutter is not enabled" also, when i boot up into ubuntu, i get bios error 81 and have to press alt-f4 to get it to boot up. I get a similar message for the ati restricted driver.
[14:48] <stefg> gluonman: 5 GB is perfectly fine for / if you don't need the whole *-dev stuff. Ubuntu in whole is just about 7 GB .
[14:48] <DarkMageZ> baty, which application are you trying to install and kubuntu or ubuntu?
[14:48] <hjmills> m4ytt, course - you can login to terminal and install links (sudo apt-get install links) to get a text based web browser. also irssi is a text based irc client
[14:48] <sot65>  I have feisty (dynamic IP- ADSL). In my Network Settings under DNS tab there is my router's(microcom AD2636) address only[<IP_ADDRESS>] under the DNS servers. Is it normal?? often I shut down and restart router to be able to connect.
[14:48] <baty> im triying to install for xubuntu the servers for boting by lan
[14:49] <hjmills> sot65, thats normal - it says that your pc should ask the router where places on the internet are which is fine
[14:49] <gluonman> stefg, I get your point, but I've run out of space and can no longer install what I need to install. So I need more space.
[14:49] <hjmills> gluonman, i recommend 8gb for /
[14:49] <stefg> gluonman: it goes llive sudo mv /var/cache/apt/archives /home , then ln -s /var/cahe/apt/archives /home/archives
[14:49] <m4ytt> hjmills so i just type in sudo apt-get instal links then what
[14:49] <stefg> gluonman: without my typos, of course :-)
[14:49] <gluonman> stefg, that command will move things to my /home?
[14:49] <dominiko> I installed Gutsy, I can't use MSN with Pidgin (requires SSL and default pidgin from Gutsy is not compiled with SSL)  What's the best way to fix it?
[14:50] <m4ytt> hjmills and how do i get irssi to work
[14:50] <stefg> gluonman: yes, that moves the apt-cache from / to the /home partition and symlinks it back
[14:50] <baty> was just misstyping
[14:50] <hjmills> m4ytt, (install not instal) then you can run `links www.google.com` to get to google. irssi is more complicated and if you are not familiar with the command line it is prob better to avoid it and do this from windows
[14:50] <baty> sry ppl
[14:50] <sot65>  hjmills:so ISP's IP not needed there. OK. thanks
[14:51] <gluonman> stefg, the command without your typos is: llive sudo mv /var/cache/apt/archives /home , then ln -s /var/cache/apt/archives /home/archives?
[14:51] <stefg> gluonman: so run du or baobab (the disk usage analyzer) where your space is used. yes, the command is right
[14:51] <hjmills> m4ytt, do `sudo apt-get -f install > apt-output.txt` then copy that file using `cp apt-output.txt <dest>` to a floppy or to a usb stick then reboot and post the contents of that file to pastebin
[14:51] <gluonman> stefg, I've never heard of the disk usage analyzer.
[14:52] <gluonman> stefg, how do I run that?
[14:52] <senseibaka> hello
[14:52] <m4ytt> havent got floppy drive or usb stick
[14:52] <stefg> gluonman: it's in apps-accesories
[14:52] <gluonman> stefg, okay.

[14:54] <etale> hi--my video is a little weird when i play avis in VLc... it looks like the video is refreshing too slowly or something, cascading down the screen
[14:54] <etale> but otherwise plays fine
[14:54] <etale> any hints?
[14:54] <gluonman> stefg, the command to move things to /home didn't work. Type it out again for me exactly as I should type it (careful about typos, I might not be able to tell).

[14:57] <zengen> Has anyone else had problems with Duplicity?  Everything I try with it performs differently than what the command called for or causes errors.  Even the simplest command straight off the man page doesn't work: ' duplicity /home file://backup/home ' results in a full backup of / .

[14:57] <pedro_> Hi anyone knows the name of the metapackage to install KDE 4?
[14:58] <jrib> zigonick: that is not how you install things on ubuntu.  You should be using APT.  You will very very rarely (read: never) need to compile anything
[14:58] <g0th> hi, when I build a debian/resp ubuntu package myself (mplayer) how do I manage that ubuntu doesn't always tries to update it to its own version? Can I somehow "exclude" that package from updates?
[14:58] <stefg> gluonman: sudo mv /var/cache/apt/archives /home
[14:58] <Tyler_Durden> Need help setting up wireless on dell d600

[14:58] <OrionDude> I installed Courier Mail Server - Base system .... but i cannot seem to be able to configure it/start it ... anyone can help me
[14:58] <ompaul> steevc, you can also some times try - Ctrl+C and then do sudo apt-get dist-upgrade and hope it starts again - Do NOT reboot!
[14:59] <ompaul> steevc, never ever reboot until you get it all done or you can face more issues than you want to
[14:59] <zigonick> jrib but i cant download all the programs i need, as on really crappy dailup, So i download them at work, and put them on a jumpdisk
[14:59] <stefg> gluonman: sudo ln -s /var/cache/apt/archives /home/archives
[14:59] <Tyler_Durden> anyone good with wirless config?
[14:59] <ompaul> steevc, for reasons such as this I always have a copy of the install CD for whatever I am using
[14:59] <jrib> zigonick: then download the packages.  You should check out apt-zip or AptOnCD
[15:00] <trollung> I have installed the gspcav1 which is the driver for my webcam but I don't know what to do now... there is no /dev/video0 and none of the webcamapps I have tried works...

[15:01] <steevc> ompaul: I'll getting the iso now in case I have to do a fresh install
[15:01] <stefg> gluonman: ah... so did it copy , and just failed to remove the dir? look in /home
[15:02] <zigonick> i looked at aptOnCd and wouldnt be able to do that as at work, i am stuck with windows, so no way to download all the stuff
[15:02] <gluonman> stefg, I'll check.
[15:02] <jrib> zigonick: the other thing you could do is pass  --print-uris  to apt get and that will give you a list of URLs to download.  Then use some download program at work, come home, copy to /var/cache/apt/archives/
[15:02] <Jakob> hi. how can I get a new vsftpd.conf file? I removed it accidentally and can't get it back by reinstalling vsftpd (apt-get)

[15:03] <dystopianray> Jakob: extract the default from the deb
[15:04] <gluonman> stefg, I do. I'm just using the disk usage analyzer to see if /home's space has been more used than it was the last time I checked.
[15:04] <jrib> zigonick: think that last method would work?
[15:04] <Jakob> how can I do this? I am new to ubuntu
[15:04] <jrib> Jakob: purge and then install again
[15:04] <stefg> gluonman: do have a /home/archives fir now ?
[15:04] <riddlebox> hrmm do I dare to upgrade my mythtv box???
[15:04] <deadlylife> I have metacity running with Compiz effects.
[15:04] <stefg> gluonman: do you have a /home/archives dir now ?
[15:05] <gluonman> stefg, the DUA is still scanning. Is there another way to check specifically what's in /home?
[15:05] <deadlylife> Compiz makes the inactive window's decorations slightly transparent, how can I change that?
[15:05] <Jakob> jrib: remove and reinstall with apt-get doesn't bring it back. Or did you mean another way?
[15:05] <stu_m> where can i get a  driver for ati Mobility FireGL 9000?
[15:05] <trollung> where do I turn to get help with installing my webcam?

[15:05] <Jakob> oh I didn't know that command. thanks
[15:05] <dystopianray> anyone have a netgear wg511v2 working with gutsy?
[15:06] <H0lyD4wg> elinks in ubuntu gutsy doesn't have a 'System' option in the Character Set selection menu. why is that?
[15:06] <gluonman> stefg, it outputs "archives  gluonman  lost+found"
[15:06] <stu_m> dystopian... it is about 4 years old
[15:06] <dystopianray> stu_m: is it not supported by the 'radeon' driver?
[15:07] <deadlylife> Help, please?
[15:07] <dystopianray> deadlylife: try asking in #compiz-fusion
[15:07] <gluonman> stefg, then I typed ls / and in it shows lost+found still present in /.
[15:08] <gluonman> stefg, so I think it did copy the directory to /home without deleting it from /.
[15:08] <Jakob> jrib: Thank you, it worked
[15:08] <dystopianray> do you have to do anything special with ndiswrapper after a feisty to gutsy upgrade?
[15:08] <stefg> gluonman: that's ok. lost+found is a system folder required on ext3 filesystems
[15:08] <gluonman> stefg, oh.

[15:10] <Flynsarmy> What's the default password for root on ubuntu? i can't su root because i don't know the password :S
[15:10] <dystopianray> Flynsarmy: there is no deafult password
[15:10] <jrib> !root > Flynsarmy (read the private message from ubotu)
[15:10] <dystopianray> Flynsarmy: you can use sudo to do things as root
[15:10] <deadlylife> jrib, Compiz makes the inactive window's decorations slightly transparent, how can I change that?
[15:10] <stefg> gluonman: sudo rm -r /var/cache/apt/archives
[15:11] <jrib> deadlylife: have not played with metacity+compiz.  I would gess that if there is a way it would be available in gconf-editor under metacity options
[15:11] <stefg> gluonman: then : sudo ln -s /var/cache/apt/archives /home/archives
[15:11] <stu_m> dystopianray:- tried that but the resolution but after hitting test, it just shows a grey screen. with the normal it will revert back in 15 secs.
[15:12] <deadlylife> jrib, Okay, thanks!
[15:12] <dystopianray> stu_m: test?
[15:12] <gluonman> stefg, okay. Done.
[15:12] <stefg> gluonman: check df -h . what does it say for / ?
[15:13] <gluonman> stefg, the space improved.
[15:13] <Gyro54> Is this the place to ask about 7.10 upgrades?
[15:13] <stefg> gluonman: how much ?
[15:13] <stu_m> dystopianray: Test? - in the screen and graphics preferences app. I assume it allows you to test your settings
[15:13] <deadheron> yepp Gyro54
[15:13] <gluonman> stefg, instead of only 130mb of space available, now I have 1.4gib.
[15:13] <dystopianray> stu_m: it may work better if you modify your xorg.conf so it is using the new settings
[15:13] <dystopianray> stu_m: then restart X
[15:14] <stefg> gluonman: ok, so we tracked down the issue. it was the apt-cache of all the downloaded .debs . should work now
[15:14] <faileas> hmm, does anyone know if the current release fixes drivers for the rt61 network card? i tried it on feisty, and i never was able to get it to work, so i'm wondering if it was fixed...
[15:14] <stu_m> dystopianray: thanks
[15:14] <gluonman> stefg, okay. But I will still resize the partition to make it larger. I have some higher installation needs than I imagine some people do.
[15:14] <minimec> Hi folks. I installed RealPlayer 10 and then I got an ugly RealPlayer Icon for all my music files (Somehow this kind of behavior remindes me of old Win98 days). How can I get rid of this icon again? Any ideas?
[15:15] <gluonman> stefg, is it possible to move installed items or files from / to /home?
[15:15] <Taza> Hello.
[15:15] <monkeyBox> Hi all.  For some reason NetworkManager is clearing out my resolv.conf every time I boot up.  Why is that happening?
[15:15] <monkeyBox> I have my DNS servers entered in there and it doesn't seem to save them.
[15:15] <stefg> gluonman: you won't anything that eats up so much space. the only thing considering is adding a seperate /var-partition that can hold apache or mysql files
[15:15] <stefg> *find
[15:15] <Taza> I have a "slight" problem relating to the Ati driver, apparently. My system cannot change console resolution (black screen) and starting X says the same.
[15:16] <Taza> monkeyBox: dhcp daemon - it's fetching new stuff on every boot.
[15:16] <JimmyDee> ati has a "slight" problem with their driver taz
[15:16] <Gyro54> is there any delays downloading 7.10 upgrade?
[15:16] <minimec> monkeyBox: This is normal I think...
[15:16] <Taza> JimmyDee: I don't need an ati driver for 3d acceleration - I just want it to WORK.
[15:16] <stefg> gluonman: and games installed by wine live in your /home/<user> anyway
[15:16] <JimmyDee> Taza, then kick the vesa driver
[15:16] <Robika> hy
[15:17] <Taza> JimmyDee: Where, exactly?
[15:17] <monkeyBox> Taza:   My /etc/resolv.conf says at the top:  #Generated by NetworkManager. Do not edit!
[15:17] <Taza> JimmyDee: Console install.
[15:17] <monkeyBox> And then nothing after
[15:17] <Robika> rt61 for debian etch is good?
[15:17] <gluonman> stefg, /var-partition is also an ext3 partition, right?
[15:17] <Taza> monkeyBox: Well, then NetworkManager is the stuff fetching the dhcp values.
[15:17] <TequilaWORM> Hi, Do you know which program is able to verify and defrag a FAT{32,16} partition
[15:17] <andres> hi guys
[15:17] <JimmyDee> Taza, easiest way is from the terminal sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[15:17] <Gyro54> My fetching files fails with some obscure repositories - Failed to fetch http://wine.lowvoice.nl/apt/dists/feisty/Release.gpg Could not resolve 'wine.lowvoice.nl'
[15:17] <Taza> JimmyDee: This isn't just X, this is also normal console. This is a laptop btw.
[15:18] <fstx3> where is the documentation for 7.10? I can only find 7.04 on https://help.ubuntu.com/.
[15:18] <stefg> gluonman: you can make it any native filesystem. In fact it might be useful to use reiserfs if you need a fast mailspool or xfs vor large mysql databases
[15:18] <Taza> JimmyDee: Every time I try to set a different console resolution - without x - than the default it shorts.
[15:18] <andres> can anyone help me with my sound card ??
[15:18] <gluonman> stefg, df -h actually shows that I have a /var/run and a /var/lock. Is that what you're talking about? Or another /var partition?
[15:18] <JimmyDee> Taza, hurm, it should run a standard vesa driver for console anyway
[15:19] <Taza> JimmyDee: Obviously, it isn't doing so.
[15:19] <stefg> gluonman: these are temporary filesystems which live in a ramdisk. ignore them
[15:19] <andres> I have a Dell vostro notebook, and i just finished to install 7.10
[15:19] <vika> hi was wondering difference between kubuntu and ubuntu i have both cd dunno which one to use i am currently a sabayon user any help would be great thanks..?
[15:19]  * justin420 also has a defaultly mis-configured console, x is fine. but the console looks WAY to big
[15:19] <gluonman> stefg, so when I create a new partition, I make a var partition and mount it where?
[15:19] <JimmyDee> taza try that line I gave you and select vesa and either 1024x768 or 1280x1024 as your resolution
[15:19] <GNUdog> Hi,all.Do Gutsy support Nvidia Raid?
[15:19] <stefg> !fstab | gluonman

[15:20] <andres> and this disto helps me with my wireles
[15:20] <swmiller> vika:  Kubuntu = KDE Ubunut = Gnome
[15:20] <andres> but still have problems with my sound card
[15:20] <vika> is that the onli difference
[15:20] <andres> thanks
[15:20] <swmiller> yes
[15:20] <jrib> vika: ubuntu uses kde by default and kubuntu uses kde by default.  They are the same otherwise.  They use the same repositories and you can always install kde on ubuntu or gnome on kubuntu
[15:21] <gluonman> ubot3, thanks.
[15:21] <ubot3> You're welcome!  It's like emulating a mac running Mac OS 9 on an otherwise decent box.
[15:22] <GNUdog> Taza: Linus Torvalds hates C++,but KDE is in C++
[15:22] <vika> do both versions come with compiz
[15:22] <jrib> vika: no difference.  dvd just has all of the main and restricted repositories on it.  So, you can use the dvd as a repository and save some bandwidth if you want
[15:22] <Taza> vika: Both versions come with everything.  He just asks the developpers whether they or the user should decide how to use and configure software.
[15:23] <Taza> If you like Gnome, you should get your head checked.
[15:23] <andres> hello, someone how want to help me, :D
[15:23] <GNUdog> Xubuntu=Ubuntu with Xfce4 by default
[15:23] <Gyro54> upgarding to 7.10 - Failed to fetch http://wine.lowvoice.nl/apt/dists/feisty/Release.gpg Could not resolve 'wine.lowvoice.nl' any ideas??
[15:23] <jrib> vika: just pick one and then install the others on the same system.  Then try all of the desktop environments and use the one you like using the best
[15:23] <faileas> actually, i think on ubuntu, Gnome is the most "polished". I *prefer* KDE usually, but i settled for gnome modified for a windows style single taskbar
[15:23] <jrib> andres: best to just ask the channel your next question and see if anyone knows the answer
[15:23] <Taza> Does EVERY ubuntu variation HAVE to go with the "EASY TO USE, BLOATED AND BREAKS LIKE HELL" route?
[15:24] <TequilaWORM> Hi, Do you know which program is able to verify and defrag a FAT{32,16} partition under linux?
[15:24] <minimec> Taza: I use gtk software in combination with e17... and no, I will not check my head... ;)
[15:24] <monkeyBox> Taza, hmm..  well, how do I assign DNS servers manually (ie, if I want to use opendns instead of what dhcp assigns me)
[15:24] <faileas> Taza: if you don't like it, or want something different, there's a lot of other distros? ;)
[15:24] <chippy> anyone know if gedit can remember open documents from last time it was running?
[15:24] <JimmyDee> Taza, if you dont like it. write your own its a free world you know
[15:24] <vika> i think ill pick kubuntu i dont mind the kde version better then gnome
[15:24] <gluonman> stefg, my gparted is still not working. Stuck in the "scanning all devices" stage.
[15:24] <vika> and if u got compiz all the same in the end
[15:24] <Taza> Can't there be a version that is "debian with better packages"?
[15:25] <summer_s4> can someone help me create something that i will base off ubuntu 7.10 (i wanna call it nexten)
[15:25] <Taza> faileas: I can't install any distro that doesn't come with a ready package for TrueCrypt
[15:25] <W1ZrD> I wish we could installed ati drivers that works :(
[15:25] <GNUdog> chippy: gedit keep a copy you edited,hmm,$filename~,maybe,not sure
[15:25] <faileas> Taza: why not build it?
[15:25] <stefg> gluonman: i hate gparted... won't trust it from breakfast to dinner
[15:25] <Taza> faileas: Not enough HDD space.
[15:25] <gluonman> stefg, what should I use, then?
[15:25] <Taza> faileas: Otherwise, I'd have done that under Debian.
[15:25] <swmiller> Truecrypt offers the deb
[15:25] <JimmyDee> Taza, so the problem is, youre too cheap to buy a hard disk?
[15:25] <stefg> gluonman: drop the idea that you need a partition resize
[15:26] <Taza> JimmyDee: No, I cannot install any other hard disk
[15:26] <jrib> vika: great, if you want to try what you would get with ubuntu and xubuntu, then you just install the "ubuntu-desktop" and "xubuntu-desktop" packages.  Then at the login screen you can choose what window manager to use with the "options" button
[15:26] <Taza> JimmyDee: I have APLENTY of space ONCE I get TrueCrypt working.
[15:26] <JimmyDee> Taza, and why is this?
[15:26] <Flynsarmy> What're the major differences between KDE and Gnome? I didn't even see an option in the ubuntu installer to install KDE
[15:26] <Taza> JimmyDee: Possibly because I'm working on nonstandard hardware?
[15:26] <gluonman> stefg, and if I still like the idea of using another partition like the /var that you recommended?
[15:26] <JimmyDee> Taza, that could cause a grave headache and heartache
[15:26] <W1ZrD> what do I need for someone to take control over my system in order to help me re-install video drivers?
[15:27] <stefg> gluonman: for what reason ?
[15:27] <swmiller> Taza: Get the deb package right form the truecrypt site
[15:27] <GNUdog> Flynsarmy: no,Ubuntu only provide Gnome and Kubuntu only provide KDE on both CD
[15:27] <dystopianray> Flynsarmy: kubuntu is what gets you kde
[15:27] <Taza> swmiller: THey don't offer a debian package.
[15:27] <vika> what i really wanan do is run xp at the same time on one of the faces of the cube is this hard to achieve
[15:27] <Varka> Flynsarmy: you can change desktop by installing ubuntu-desktop, kubuntu-desktop, xubuntu-desktop and so on after installing one of the derivates
[15:27] <gluonman> stefg, you're the one who mentioned it would be helpful to me.
[15:27] <swmiller> yes they do
[15:27] <swmiller> that is where i got mine
[15:27] <Taza> swmiller: No, they don't
[15:27] <dystopianray> Flynsarmy: kde gives you more power and control, gnome is dumber but simpler
[15:27] <Taza> swmiller: I checked.
[15:27] <JimmyDee> xp on one of the faces, wooo wish on
[15:27] <swmiller> check agion
[15:27] <gluonman> stefg, that's the only reason I was concerned about it.
[15:27] <Flynsarmy> dystopianray: Gnome is better for a linux newbie?
[15:27] <swmiller> I got there yesterday
[15:27] <vika> ive seen it done
[15:27] <dystopianray> Flynsarmy: hrrm maybe
[15:28] <stefg> gluonman: i said it /could/ be useful on a server for special purposes. the average home machine doesn't need it. you have your apt-cache separate now, that'
[15:28] <Taza> swmiller: There ISN'T a debian package for TrueCrypt
[15:28] <lailai> hello. trying to connect to ubutu desktop remotely using gdm. Can login Ok, but when I do so, user's desktop is blank (orange actually). What can I be missing ?
[15:28] <Borysek> hello

[15:43] <JebJoya> hey all, quick question, just looking for some advice really - I've decided to bite the bullet and get rid of my Radeon 9600xt graphics (3 year old pc,athlon 64 3200+, 1gb ram) and want to replace it with a nvidia one which'll actually work under ubuntu.  Does anyone have any suggestions for good, affordable (bearing in mind it's going in a rubbish pc) nvidia graphics card (say, up to £60 or so)?
[15:43] <wizardyesterday> I have Feisty Fawn on my system now.  Will I have an option to update to the new 7.10 or do I have to do a total reinstall?
[15:43] <wizardyesterday> I've never done updates before
[15:43] <FluxD> wizardyesterday: you can upgrade
[15:43] <KaiForce> you can do it from updater
[15:43] <gluonman> I was given instructions to delete /var/cache/apt/archives from my / partition and move it to my /home partition. I cleared up space in my / but it also has prevented me from being able to install anything new from synaptic. It gives me an error saying that it cannot find the directory that I moved, and thus cannot begin the download. What should I do?
[15:43] <[Nord]> hi
[15:43] <wizardyesterday> FluxD, sweet! thanks much.
[15:43] <JebJoya> wizardyesterday: yeah, you can update using the update manager thingy in the top right (the orange one)
[15:44] <ElementalBelief> wizardyesterday: you can upgrade as long as your system is fully updated

[15:44] <KaiForce> my intel 945 mobile works with compiz

[15:44] <tadzik_> need help with stubborn partitions
[15:45] <KaiForce> tadzik details
[15:45] <JebJoya> can anyone suggest a cheap nvidia card for a 3 year old pc to replace my ati which is being a pain in the a**e in ubuntu?
[15:45] <dystopianray> JebJoya: fx 5200
[15:45] <ElementalBelief> is compiz still having problems with limewire?
[15:45] <KaiForce> yes 5200
[15:46] <FluxD> how much does fx 5200 go for?
[15:46] <dystopianray> JebJoya: it is my favourite video card
[15:46] <dystopianray> FluxD: I think they are like AUD$50
[15:46] <JebJoya> that was surprising that people agree - why is that?  what magical powers do they have?
[15:46] <JebJoya> ;)
[15:46] <KaiForce> heh
[15:46] <JebJoya> hypno-ray?
[15:46] <ElementalBelief> they can make you coffee
[15:46] <FluxD> nvidia has better drivers
[15:47] <KaiForce> if you want a vid card that just works the 5200 is a nice option
[15:47] <Bonste1> any good diary program?
[15:47] <dystopianray> they come with a low-profile pci socket
[15:47] <dystopianray> so you can use in a small machine
[15:47] <gluonman> I NEED HELP! I'M IN A STATE OF SOME URGENCY. I have moved /var/cache/apt/archives from my / partition to my /home partition to free up space on the /. However, though the freeing of the space helped, synaptic will not let me install anything since it reports that it is missing the directory(ies) that I had just moved to /home. What can I do to correct that?
[15:47] <gipnor> I'm trying out Linux (moving from windows) and have a simple question.... I'm looking at what is involved with installing JRE and why does it take 10 steps versus a simple double-click from Windows?  Couldn't Linux ask you for a password after you attempt to execute it?

[15:48] <kromcuich> hey friend, is there a way to package my current ubuntu OS (with settings and software), as a DVD or similar, for easy install on the same computer later on/
[15:48] <Nicke> gipnor: If not, try to install the sun-java6-jre package
[15:48] <JebJoya> might try to get next day delivery with that as well, since it's so cheap...

[15:50] <Bonste1> yea that baby doesnt die tho
[15:50] <Bonste1> get it

[15:55] <gluonman> jrib, "no such file or directory."
[15:55] <steevc> tadzik_: I thought that was a bad move for an imcomplete upgrade
[15:55] <kromcuich> fluxd: yes, but i want to dual boot, and the ubuntu install killed the windows OS bootloader. i dont have the windows install CD, but i have an image of it, as I started with it first
[15:55] <tadzik_> not sure
[15:55] <tadzik_> try sudo apt-get autoremove
[15:55] <tadzik_> changes anything?
[15:56] <jrib> At0mic_P1: the safe way to do it is to rebuild the source package.  Or even better, request a backport.  But you should upgrade.  Maybe you can burn an alternate cd somewhere and use that?

[15:57] <jrib> gluonman: can you look for it or go back and see what you did?

[15:57] <At0mic_P1> Or at least not on the ubuntu page.
[15:57] <KaiForce> gluonman, try "find . -name archives"
[15:57] <KaiForce> oops sorry
[15:58] <kromcuich> fluxD: i didnt lose grub. something really went wrong in windosw file system, and it bluescreens on boot. grub working fine and i can access the windows partition through ubuntu. however, i want to reinstall, without repeating the last 3 days spent setting up ubuntu
[15:58] <misc__> hello, I've got a problem trying to install ubuntu 7.04. I boot from CD then I use text mode (graphics mode fails also) then it says to please insert Ubuntu CD. But obviously I've got it in the drive as that's how it booted originally. Any ideas?
[15:58] <KaiForce> find /home -name archives
[15:58] <andres> fstx_: throws me errors
[15:58] <steevc> whatever dpkg command is running never seems to get anywhere
[15:58] <tadzik_> teevc: tried ctrl+c alredy?
[15:58] <jrib> At0mic_P1: http://releases.ubuntu.com/feisty/
[15:58] <steevc> nothing running in foreground
[15:58] <tadzik_> misc__ remove it and put again?
[15:58] <fstx_> andres: the title bar says 'Voulme Control: HDA NVidia (Alsa mixer), expect that has your soundcard type instead of HDA NVidia
[15:58] <misc__> tadzik_: I did that, then it says please re-insert it
[15:59] <cousin_luigi> hello
[15:59] <tadzik_> is it clean? have you chcecked for errors?
[15:59] <gluonman> jrib, the command, I think, was sudo mv /var/cache/apt/archives or something like that.
[15:59] <tadzik_> steevc: sorry, i don't know
[15:59] <cousin_luigi> who do I tell about a mistake in the locale of a package?
[15:59] <gluonman> KaiForce, you mean "find /var/cache/apt/archives"?
[15:59] <jrib> gluonman: we need the part with /home
[15:59] <andres> fstx_: Volume Control
[15:59] <misc__> tadzik_: well no I haven't checked but I actually did an install of it a couple of months ago. Granted it has been put away without a CD cover... I'll try to clean it
[15:59] <KaiForce> he may have just been where he was copying it and did "."
[16:00] <jrib> gluonman: try 'history | grep archives' maybe
[16:00] <tadzik_> try "check for sth sth errors"
[16:00] <fstx_> andres: what do you do, and what happens?
[16:00] <At0mic_P1> Thanks jrib
[16:00] <FluxD> kromcuich: I am not sure then :/
[16:00] <misc__> tadzik_: ah yeah I'll do a CD test
[16:00] <JebJoya> right, having done a bit of research, I think that the fx5200 is a bit underpowered for me (i think my ati 9600xt seems to come up better in benchmarks) - so any suggestions of one comparable to the 9600xt?
[16:00] <andres> fstx_: nothing at all
[16:00] <tadzik_> misc__: exactly :)
[16:00] <fernandok> bom dia
[16:00] <andres> fstx_: install ubuntu
[16:01] <tadzik_> misc__: i was missing this word
[16:01] <LJAnanrdan> even after running  backup /etc/X11/xorg.conf it is giving backup: Unrecognized operation '/etc/X11/xorg.conf'; type 'backup help' for list
[16:01] <misc__> =)
[16:01] <andres> fernandok: este chat e so em ingleis
[16:01] <tadzik_> steevc: still here?
[16:01] <stinger05> hi, why do i get this message while trying to install packages using aptoncd? : " Cannot find filename or size tag "
[16:02] <gluonman> jrib, okay. The commands that I used were, "sudo rm -r /var/cache/apt/archives" on the first line, then "sudo ln -s /var/cache/apt/archives /home/archives".
[16:02] <andres> vc pode probar com #ubuntu-br
[16:02] <gluonman> jrib, that's what did it.
[16:02] <JebJoya> LJAnanrdan: do something like "sudo cp /etc/X11/xorg.conf /etc/X11/xorg.conf.backup1"
[16:02] <tadzik_> steevc: i tried 'autoremove' then stopped it 'ctrl + c' and got the same error
[16:02] <jrib> gluonman: so do you want to redo that or go back to old way?
[16:02] <misc__> tadzik_: hmm, it appears I have a CRC error on it. Well there ya go
[16:02] <tadzik_> steevc: close console, then enter it again
[16:03] <Mishaal> hey guys! I don't have super in my keyboard. Is there any alternative ?
[16:03] <tadzik_> misc__: there ya go
[16:03] <cousin_luigi> Mishaal: "super"?
[16:03] <steevc> tadzik_: the original run was from Adept, i.e. not from console
[16:03] <ir4d0m> im trying to find an ip changer easy to install... something like TOR? or something that will change my ip address...
[16:03] <DBAlex> Hey
[16:03] <DBAlex> im installing ubuntu as we speak on my laptop
[16:03] <Phisikus> pff
[16:03] <jrib> gluonman: (that line is wrong by the way)
[16:03] <gluonman> jrib, well, the point was to free up space on my /. But I need to be able to install a few things from synaptic, which seems to need those archives to be in my /. So, if that's the case, then I need to put them back.
[16:03] <DBAlex> which filesystem do I use?
[16:03] <Bonste1> Mishaal: super = window key
[16:03] <Phisikus> ir4d0m: abuse?
[16:03] <DBAlex> and do I need a swap partition, and how big should it be in MB?
[16:03] <Phisikus> ir4d0m: why do you want to change your ip?
[16:03] <Mishaal> Bonste1: i tried it. it does not work :(
[16:04] <cousin_luigi> DBAlex: double of physical RAM, usually
[16:04] <Mishaal> let me try again
[16:04] <Mishaal> thanks
[16:04] <dystopianray> DBAlex: how much ram do you have?
[16:04] <KaiForce> DBAlex - how much RAM?
[16:04] <ir4d0m> Phisikus: i was banned from a clan site for accedintly saying gay... apparently they ban u for it
[16:04] <DBAlex> I have 1024mb ram
[16:04] <DBAlex> 1GB
[16:04] <jrib> gluonman: what is the output of 'ls -ld /home/archives'?
[16:04] <cousin_luigi> ir4d0m: is that bad?
[16:04] <tadzik_> DBAlex: do 2 gb swap
[16:04] <ebirtaid> man
[16:04] <ebirtaid> do 1 gb
[16:04] <LJAnanrdan> there is no change even after sudo cp /etc/X11/xorg.conf /etc/X11/xorg.conf.backup1
[16:04] <DBAlex> what filesystem do I use for the SWAP and for UBUNTU?
[16:04] <ir4d0m> yeah im trying to get back on there...
[16:04] <ebirtaid> with 1 gb ram you will NOT use 2gb swap
[16:04] <DBAlex> ext2 or 3?
[16:04] <jrib> DBAlex: swap
[16:04] <fstx_> andres: lets resynchronize. What happens when you put the mouse cursor on the speaker icon, right-click, and select open volume control.
[16:04] <cousin_luigi> DBAlex: ext3 and swapfs respectively
[16:04] <gluonman> jrib, rwxr-xr-x 2 root root 36864 2007-10-27 04:11 /home/archives
[16:04] <KaiForce> do minimum 1gb
[16:04] <tadzik_> swap is a filesystem
[16:04] <dystopianray> DBAlex: there is a specific swap option, ext3 for linux
[16:04] <tadzik_> not a mounting point
[16:05] <DBAlex> cousin_luigi: thanks
[16:05] <DBAlex> <dystopianray: err, ext3 for swap and ubuntu?
[16:05] <mlhoyle> hi ppl
[16:05] <dijana> simpson
[16:05] <andres> fstx: it throws me an error
[16:05] <Phisikus> ir4d0m: talk with them. If they are just stupid idiots, find other clan :>
[16:05] <DBAlex> btw, cant I use less than 2GB SWAP IF I HAVE 1GB RAM?
[16:05] <cousin_luigi> whom do I report a bug?
[16:05] <jrib> gluonman: there is no 'd' in the beginning of that?
[16:05] <jrib> !bugs | cousin_luigi

[16:06] <andres> fstx: No Volume contorl GStreamer .......
[16:06] <JebJoya> LJAnanrdan: if you look in the directory, there should be a new file called xorg.conf.backup1 which is a backup of your old one
[16:06] <gluonman> jrib, sorry. Yes there is, I just noticed that I failed to include that.

[16:06] <DBAlex> do I make the partition PRIMARY or LOGICAL?
[16:06] <ir4d0m> just is there any ip changers?
[16:07] <dystopianray> DBAlex: you do need to make a swap partition
[16:07] <jrib> DBAlex: you need swap to suspend
[16:07] <gluonman> jrib, did that put them back?

[16:10] <stinger05> how can i install backed-up packages manually using aptoncd ?

(I have tried to select "GNOME Session" for session). Works ok with fedora, but can't seem to make it work with ubuntu. :-( help please.
[16:11] <jrib> DBAlex: you want the partition you boot from to be primary.  If you only need 4 or less partitions, just make them all primary
[16:11] <hmuller> stinger05:  haven't used it
[16:11] <xypezza> ; /me waves!
[16:11] <DBAlex> jrib: ok thankyou, does swap need a mount point?

[16:12] <tapio> dystopianray: Ok, fair enough. It crashes alot, though :(
[16:12] <andres> fstx: it is
[16:12] <gluonman> jrib, oh, now synaptic is still reporting missing archives. It's not as long an error, so it's now finding some things it couldn't find before, but it mentions /var/cache/apt/archives/partial missing and it says that it is unable to lock the download directory.
[16:12] <jl> i have a problem running java apps it seems that gtk swing theme is broken some controls like windows buttons and combobox buttons don't look very well

[16:13] <gluonman> jrib, will take just one moment.
[16:14] <DBAlex> jrib: Why would it say that 1167 is unusable?
[16:14] <follia> LJAnanrdan, man xorg.conf
[16:14] <jrib> DBAlex: don't know
[16:14] <frojnd> jrib, but I donwloaded .deb package...

[16:14] <jrib> frojnd: I am telling you it gets installed to the same database
[16:14] <JebJoya> LJAnanrdan: oh, is that what you're wanting to do?  you could use sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg and use the menu system?
[16:14] <jl> guess i'am the only one with the problem

[16:16] <steviedee> sometimes you internet provider has it available for downlaod
[16:16] <Quiz> Hello :) please help me ! i got nokia 6233 when i connect mobile phone via usb cable i need to download photos from my phone,when i do this downloading stuck and nothing hapens :(.
[16:16] <BigCanOfTuna_> JebJoya: I don't see a torrent there.
[16:16] <JebJoya> BigCanOfTuna_: lemme find the link
[16:17] <steviedee> neone use AWN?
[16:17] <BigCanOfTuna_> JebJoya: I can find the direct download.

[16:19] <buzzed> but i only see wep as an option
[16:19] <JebJoya> BigCanOfTuna_: yep, just get the desktop-install rather than the alternate one (which is text only)
[16:19] <JebJoya> BigCanOfTuna_: that might not be the quickest mirror for you if you're outside the uk...?
[16:19] <buzzed> in the connection properties
[16:19] <Noobie> hello peeps - I'm new to ubuntu and am enjoying the learning process
[16:19] <BigCanOfTuna_> JebJoya: thanks!
[16:19] <sharpie> is there a way to make the contents of the window visible while scaling it? (in other words, see the inside of the window while scaling instead of a blue square)
[16:19] <cdm10> Pidgin 2.2.2 hasn't seemed to have made it into the repos (yet). I know that the package management people have strict rules regarding upgrades, but 2.2.2 is a security update that fixes a denial of service issue, so it should be put into main.
[16:19] <andres> fstx_: ok, now what?
[16:19] <JebJoya> BigCanOfTuna_: http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/downloadmirrors has all the other mirrors
[16:19] <cdm10> sharpie: Do you have the advanced compiz configuration manager installed?
[16:19] <sharpie> cdm10: yeah
[16:20] <cdm10> sharpie: Actually, it's called ccsm or ADvanced Desktop Settings Manager or whatever.
[16:20] <fstx_> andres: lsmod | grep snd-hda-intel
[16:20] <sharpie> cdm10: that's irrelevant =\
[16:20] <Journeyman> I installed crossfire-client, but I can't find the client
[16:21] <sharpie> cdm10: so...uh, where is it there? :\
[16:21] <TFrog> i just loaded up the ATI proprietary 8.42.3 drivers exactly as prescribed in http://wiki.cchtml.com/index.php/Ubuntu_Gutsy_Installation_GuideP. now when i type fglxrinfo or glxgears i get this error->fglrxinfo: error while loading shared libraries: libGL.so.1: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
[16:21] <cdm10> sharpie: Yeah... hold on, I'm finding the option.
[16:21] <Journeyman> anyone know what the name of the binary is?
[16:21] <JebJoya> so, anyone suggest a nvidia graphics card comparable or better than a ati 9600xt which works nicely in ubuntu?
[16:21] <TFrog> any ideas as to how to fix that error
[16:21] <mc44> TFrog: read the page
[16:21] <DBAlex> gmm
[16:21] <andres> fstx_: nathing
[16:21] <DBAlex> *hmm
[16:21] <mc44> TFrog: specifically the bottom
[16:21] <sharpie> cdm10: thanks. oh, and while you're at it, what's the "put" plugin do? :\
[16:21] <steviedee> neone using AWN?
[16:21] <DBAlex> what happened, I clicked resize and a window thats tiny popped up?
[16:21] <andres> fstx_: nothing
[16:21] <DBAlex> has it crashed ? :S
[16:21] <DBAlex> What do I do?
[16:21] <fstx_> fstx: uname -a
[16:21] <sharpie> cdm10: never mind, i found the resize thing
[16:22] <astro76> Journeyman, dpkg -L crossfire-client | grep bin
[16:22] <cdm10> sharpie: oh, cool. Sorry I couldn't find it very fast :)
[16:22] <TFrog> i'll try that and see. i have a bad habit of not always reading everything. shame on me
[16:22] <Whitor> Support for video and graphics can be found at #ubuntu-effects too
[16:22] <astro76> Journeyman, that will tell you
[16:22] <cdm10> sharpie: Damn, it's right there in front of me, in Uncategorized!
[16:22] <cdm10> heh
[16:22] <sharpie> cdm10: but do you know what "put" is? (under window management)
[16:22] <Journeyman> astro76, thanks, intresting it didn't install a bin file
[16:22] <cdm10> sharpie: I think it lets you use keyboard combos to move a window to the center or sides of the screen.
[16:23] <sharpie> cdm10: thx, and 1 last thing: what's screenshot?
[16:23] <Journeyman> oh wait I found it
[16:23] <mc44> TFrog: eh, I was just telling you it was there
[16:23] <riddlebox> has there been lots of problems upgrading feisty to gutsy?
[16:23] <astro76> Journeyman, in crossfire-client-gtk2 or -x11 ?
[16:23] <TFrog> yeah. fixed fglxrinfo. problem is i'm still showing Mesa as the opengl driver
[16:23] <cdm10> sharpie: It lets you take a screenshot of whatever's in a square you draw on your screen.
[16:24] <sharpie> um, i'll try it =o
[16:24] <cdm10> sharpie: I don't find it that useful, I just use the normal screenshot app :)
[16:24] <Journeyman> gtk2
[16:24] <sharpie> cdm10: thanks for all your help, i'm off now =o
[16:24] <Journeyman> astro76, I found it, it was just named weird

[16:25] <chdimis> hi guys
[16:25] <chdimis> i need some help can anybody help me?
[16:25] <astro76> !ask
[16:25] <ubot3> Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[16:25] <Raff7> xD
[16:26] <chdimis> ok i like u
[16:26] <Raff7> yep, just ask
[16:26] <cdm10> jtkiefer: /var/log/auth.log, or you can use the Log Viewer in System>Admin

[16:26] <TFrog> i'll bbl. got an idea that may work for my fix.
[16:26] <chdimis> i cant separate my wlan0 from eth
[16:26] <scguy318> buzzed: you may need to use ndiswrapper to gain that functionality
[16:26] <scguy318> buzzed: it would seem the native drivers dont have such support
[16:26] <ElementalBelief> anyone here has used qbittorrent?
[16:26] <JebJoya> could anyone suggest a nvidia graphics card comparable or better than a ati 9600xt which works nicely in ubuntu?  having looked at the fx5200, it seems a little underpowered, any other suggestions?

[16:28] <mehevi_> can anyone reccomend a good mp3 player that can be entirely driven by the mouse?  I tire of xine and its crappiness

[16:28] <cdm10> keitherz: just select one of the options besides custom from the effects settings list.
[16:28] <astro76> DBAlex, sounds like a plan ;)
[16:28] <jtkiefer> cdm10, hmm, that one worked this time but not before... odd

[16:28] <keitherz> no i need the default given when you install gusty

[16:28] <voidus> how can i get a list of files that was modified/accessesed by a particular program?
[16:29] <Raff7> cdm10 nice ^^

[16:29] <Ubuntu-fan_> hey, can someone help me get my mic working for skype / teamspeak on my laptop, it has gutsy installed... ?
[16:29] <boulba> how to have the applet which is bottom center on this screen shot ? http://drakken.ironie.org/db_drakken/screenshoot_temp.jpg
[16:29] <cdm10> keitherz: it'll switch to the default when you select "Normal" from the list of Visual Effects options in System>Preferences>Appearanc
[16:30] <astro76> voidus, just access time and modified time
[16:30] <cdm10> *appearance
[16:30] <voidus> astro76: how can i record it? or no way?
[16:30] <nn> is there a reason firefox turns all grey and stuff every now and then?
[16:30] <scguy318> Ubuntu-fan_: for TeamSpeak you'll need to start it with aoss
[16:30] <JebJoya> anyone got a quick and dirty way i can check if my board has PCI-express?  (i suspect i don't...)
[16:30] <scguy318> Ubuntu-fan_: I think that's in alsa-utils or something
[16:30] <cdm10> nn: that means it's frozen... or Ubuntu thinks it's frozen.
[16:30] <astro76> voidus, not that I'm aware of
[16:30] <Ubuntu-fan_> scguy318: aoss ?
[16:30] <Matic`Makovec> Hello there. I just accidently deleted couple of files (with shift+del). Is there _any_way at all to retrieve them? They were quite important
[16:30] <astro76> voidus, are you trying to accomplish something in particular?
[16:30] <voidus> astro76: yes
[16:30] <fstx_> andres: so the module is loaded
[16:30] <scguy318> Ubuntu-fan_: aoss is OSS -> ALSA wrapper
[16:30] <tims108> hi
[16:30] <scguy318> Ubuntu-fan_: TeamSpeak is OSS only, you probably dont want that
[16:30] <boulba> nobody can tell me what is it ?
[16:31] <scguy318> Ubuntu-fan_: and its actually in alsa-aoss
[16:31] <cdm10> Matic`Makovec: 1) backup, 2) don't use shift-del. As far as I know, there's no "undelete" utility for Ext3 like there is for DOS/Windows partitions.
[16:31] <Whitor> Matic`Makovec: there is software that can attempt to retrieve it for you
[16:31] <Matic`Makovec> Which is?
[16:31] <Ubuntu-fan_> scguy318: lol sorry I am completely lost... I dont know the abreviations... I am farely new to ubuntu and linux in general
[16:31] <chippy> JebJoya, system->prefs-> hardware information say anything?
[16:31] <nn> cdm10: one could mount -o remount,ro the partition and use one of the e2undel utils or such
[16:31] <Noobie> Help guys what command line would you use to connect to and mount a share on an XP machine?
[16:31] <andres> fstx_: and why no sound comes out?
[16:32] <Whitor> Matic`Makovec: no idea... only hearsay
[16:32] <scguy318> Ubuntu-fan_: let me sum it up then :P start TeamSpeak with the aoss command
[16:32] <cdm10> nn: Ah, you should tell him that then :)
[16:32] <mehevi> Matic`Makovec the best solution is to stop using the filesystem you want to recover from AT ONCE and use another disk
[16:32] <scguy318> Ubuntu-fan_: if you want more than one program to be able to use your sound card
[16:32] <Ubuntu-fan_> scguy318: All I know is that my mic works on my ubuntu which is installed on my desktop... and it works with teamspeak (eventhough teamspeak then takes control over the sound and I cant play any other sound other then teamspeak)
[16:32] <scguy318> Ubuntu-fan_: exactly
[16:32] <scguy318> Ubuntu-fan_: thats why you use aoss
[16:32] <voidus> astro76: i did install gnome-user-share and can't understand which files it modifies or how can i access created share
[16:32] <Matic`Makovec> mehevi, yeah, and then?
[16:32] <tims108> if i want a a channel in say ik eds in uk how to change in xchat?
[16:32] <bj0rn> My postgresql installation is broken and reinstalling doesnt seem to help. seems like setup of user and config files doesn't happen..  anyone know how to completely restore a postgres installation from scratch?
[16:32] <boulba> please help me ! explain me how to have what is bottom center on this screen shot http://drakken.ironie.org/db_drakken/screenshoot_temp.jpg
[16:32] <scguy318> Ubuntu-fan_: sudo apt-get install alsa-aoss
[16:33] <Ubuntu-fan_> scguy318: and how to I start it up with "aoss" ? (sry if I am being stupid ^^)
[16:33] <scguy318> Ubuntu-fan_: I mean, sudo apt-get install alsa-oss
[16:33] <JebJoya> chippy: not that i can see, looks agp only, was just looking
[16:33] <nn> Matic`Makovec: in a terminal i'd do 'mount -o remount,ro /' (or whatever file system files are on), this will make the file system read only preventing overwriting the files, then you need to find some way to get one of the ext2 undelete utilities, assuming you are using ext[23] instead of say xfs
[16:33] <JebJoya> chippy: that's annoying then...
[16:33] <scguy318> Ubuntu-fan_: thats for installation, then make a shortcut or run from Terminal: aoss /path/to/teamspeak/binary
[16:33] <Ubuntu-fan_> scguy318: I have "Alsa Mixer" chosen, should I take the OSS in sound preferences?
[16:33] <larson9999> what's the aptitude command to see which package contains a specific file?  i manned aptitude but don't see it.
[16:33] <nn> Matic`Makovec: problem is a chicken and egg one of sorts.. If you install anything, you're likely to overwrite them..
[16:33] <fstx_> andres: if you do 'alsactl names -f an; more an', do you see the card there?
[16:33] <mehevi> Matic`Makovec well I dont know about what you would use for ex3 recovery but to quit writing to your filesystem ensures it wont get overwritten (your only concern when it comes to dataloss)
[16:33] <chippy> JebJoya, anything on pc specs ?
[16:33] <scguy318> Ubuntu-fan_: mixer doesn't really matter right now :P
[16:34] <tims108> !nubuntu
[16:34] <ubot3> Factoid nubuntu not found
[16:34] <Ubuntu-fan_> ok one sec I will try installing...

[16:34] <DBAlex> OK installing, wish me luck...! :-)
[16:34] <bbrown> I have a ~/.bashrc file but those settings don't get carried to gnome environment?  eg like on the desktop.  Is there a way to export env settings to the gnome on startup
[16:34] <Matic`Makovec> nn, and you wouldn't know any utility?
[16:34] <chippy> on the interwebnets, JebJoya, search for specs of your system ?
[16:34] <nn> Matic`Makovec: hangon
[16:34] <nn> Matic`Makovec: I'd asap make sure the file system is read-only

[16:36] <nn> Matic`Makovec: mount -f -o remount,ro /home
[16:36] <astro76> voidus, it might be a hidden . file/dir in your home, but considering it's gnome it might use gconf.... have you run gnome-file-share-properties?

[16:37] <boulba> when using TeamSpeak with aoss, in the configuration of TeamSpeak, which sound driver must I choose ? (Settings menu and Devices tab)
[16:37] <mehevi> Noobie use samba
[16:37] <nn> saloxin: yea, worst case tune2fs -o ^has_journal then run it and then recreate journal via tune2fs -j
[16:37] <astro76> boulba, should still be oss
[16:37] <voidus> astro76: yes, i did run. it shows a small window, when i select "enable sharing". and nothing more... where i can read more about it?

[16:38] <JebJoya> anyone have an opinion on http://www.ebuyer.com/product/132315 (asus nvidia 7600gs 256mb ddr2) as a replacement for a radeon 9600xt?
[16:38] <mehevi> Noobie  the command is smb
[16:38] <nn> Matic`Makovec: hangon
[16:38] <OrionDude> i did xtrl-x .. and i got ^Xmode in the botton
[16:39] <mehevi> OrionDude try :wq!
[16:39] <Steffan> later!
[16:39] <JebJoya> agh, out of stock...

[16:39] <OrionDude> ?
[16:39] <Noobie> mehevi: thanks will try that
[16:40] <mehevi> OrionDude type colon, w, q, !.
[16:40] <scriptdevil> is it possible to install ant without installing gcj. i am sure that ant can run with the sun jdk and jre
[16:40] <nn> Matic`Makovec: since your file is on /home, 'apt-get install e2undel recover', i'd try recover first, if not e2undel
[16:40] <lucky711x_> upgraded to Gutsy this morning and firefox <IP_ADDRESS> is now really really choppy and yes smooth scrolling is enabled and ive tried with it disabled and got the same results
[16:41] <nn> recover -a /dev/whatever seems all you have to do
[16:41] <lucky711x_> anyone having the same issue?
[16:41] <OrionDude> mehevi ... i think were talking about something different .. i did "vi /etc/network/interfaces" .. and edited some info .. now i need to save and exit this somehow
[16:41] <Matic`Makovec> Okay, I'll try nn, thank you
[16:41] <scriptdevil> lucky711x_: nope... but my config is kinda high
[16:41] <JebJoya> does the geforce 7600gs have good driver support?
[16:41] <astro76> OrionDude, press ESC, then type :wq
[16:41] <fstx_> andres: you can check the modules.pcimap in /lib/modules/your-kernel-version for the pci id
[16:41] <scriptdevil> JebJoya: yeah
[16:41] <Ubuntu-fan_> scguy318: just give me a buzz when you are back, cant really find out what to do ^^... :)
[16:41] <nn> Matic`Makovec: i usually used e2undel, but recover might be better bet
[16:41] <JebJoya> scriptdevil: awesome, that'll do me then

[16:42] <LoKi0480> is there an admin online?

[16:42] <nn> Matic`Makovec: mkdir /tmp/undel; e2undel -d /dev/whatever -s /tmp/undel -a
[16:42] <Matic`Makovec> nn recover only looks for ext2?
[16:42] <lucky711x_> damn im beginning to think the upgraed to gutsy was a bad decision
[16:42] <scriptdevil> is it possible to install ant without installing gcj. i am sure that ant can run with the sun jdk and jre
[16:43] <lucky711x_> firefox is was to choppy to even read
[16:43] <andres> fstx_: any idea?
[16:43] <JebJoya> scriptdevil: cool, i'm stuck on a ati 9600xt, which is too old to be supported by the new ati drivers, and the old ones don't work on the new x.org... great. :S
[16:43] <nn> Matic`Makovec: that'll create /tmp/undel hopefully with your files in it
[16:43] <astro76> lucky711x_, what does choppy mean? you mentioned scrolling but you don't read while you scroll?
[16:43] <scriptdevil> JebJoya: you can check out the nvidia site for the cards they support
[16:43] <fstx_> andres: you can check the modules.pcimap in /lib/modules/your-kernel-version for the pci id
[16:43] <Wikzo> I just installed Avant Windows Manager in Ubuntu 7.10. I don't wanna have the dock showing my open windows - I just want to use it for launchers. How do I remove the "Show which programs are open" function?

[16:46] <Dekkharyn> hi there, I'm having a slight problem with ONE particular usb drive; it's a ~300GB USB external HDD. dmesg shows it is being seen when it connects but it is not automounted. I can mount it manually but then it is as root, and I can't alter the files on it without sudo'ing from terminal. Can someone help me with diagnosing why it isn't automounting for me? I followed https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UsbFlashDrives - I've got permission and settings to auto

[17:02] <faileas> msingh: you can select any DE. just install the right packages
[17:02] <koudelka_> sharpie: can you find them under system -> hardware information
[17:02] <Strang3love> after replacing a motherboard and processor, grub starts normally but after making a selection it says "error 21: selected disk does not exist"  any ideas?
[17:02] <_spi_> Hi there, Someone can help me: My file system has been remounted  Read-only way... !!! why!?!??!!?
[17:02] <Dekkharyn> astro76: ... haha oh wow, dosfsck doesn't like this disk at all; "Currently, only 1 or 2 FATs are supported, not 139." Would running checkdisk on dos work?
[17:02] <koudelka_> msingh: i recomend xubuntu too
[17:02] <Noir> Is there any way to install nvidia drivers without going through synaptic?
[17:02] <boulba> Ubuntu-fan_: just plug in the mic but before 7.10 it didnt work and I was always said that oass was absolutely necessary
[17:02] <astro76> Dekkharyn, yeah maybe try from dos/windows first
[17:02] <msingh> ok i'll check out xubuntu cheers
[17:02] <scriptdevil> _spi_: well.. check /etc/fstab
[17:02] <nuba1> noir... try envy
[17:03] <Dr_Willis> Noir i use the 'restricted-manager' tool for my 4 machines.
[17:03] <sharpie> koudelka_: hardware information isn't working for some reason \=
[17:03] <nuba1> search google for it
[17:03] <astro76> Dekkharyn, though dosfsck should fix it fine also.... you backed up? ;)
[17:03] <ckennedy> mouted external drive: now I get this You are not privileged to mount the volume 'DRV4_VOL1
[17:03] <pdavid> Strang3love: did you get into a boot prompt command in grub?
[17:03] <Dr_Willis> Envy can cause problems in the 'long run' :()
[17:03] <Whitor> don't use envy
[17:03] <nuba1> havent found that.. worked every time for me
[17:03] <sharpie> koudelka_: and i have this "unable to get data" icon in my tray too
[17:03] <boulba> Ubuntu-fan_: in fqct it seems with 7.10 it works w/o aoss, normally
[17:03] <astro76> !envy
[17:03] <ubot3> envy is a script that may leave you envious of those who have not used it, use the resticted manager to install binary drivers or use the instructions on the wiki, this script may break your machine very badly!
[17:03] <Dekkharyn> astro76: there's no way I can back that up, it's got 300GB of stuff, it's bigger than all other drives put together
[17:03] <sharpie> koudelka_: it popped up when i put a dvd in the drive
[17:03] <_spi_> Hi there, Someone can help me: My file system has been remounted  Read-only way... !!! why!?!??!!?
[17:03] <defrysk> its not about not using envy , its just not supperted here
[17:03] <defrysk> so no envy help here
[17:03] <nuba1> well, in theory all it does is download the restricted drivers and compile
[17:03] <koudelka_> sharpie: hmm it's nothing i know anything about, sorry
[17:04] <Ubuntu-fan_> holy shit
[17:04] <nuba1> why is that bad?
[17:04] <Noir> I can't get online with my ubuntu machine at my college because I can't install cisco security agent, so I was woundering if there was more along the lines of a .deb
[17:04] <astro76> Dekkharyn, well I guess then just the critical stuff then.. and cross your fingers ;)
[17:04] <Whitor> envy causes problems when upgrading
[17:04] <andres__> fstx_: so, what do you think?
