[14:58] <ActionParsnip> Ziber: if its a samba share you can try: -t smbfs   instead
[14:59] <ActionParsnip> zamba: did the xorg.conf files I gave you work??
[14:59] <zamba> ActionParsnip: nope
[14:59] <zamba> ActionParsnip: same problem with fullscreen youtube
[14:59] <rahul_> is there a channel where bugs and stages are discussed ?
[14:59] <ActionParsnip> zamba: did you restart x after updating the file?
[14:59] <zamba> ActionParsnip: sure.. did /etc/init.d/gdm restart
[14:59] <Hrishikesh> Hi, I am trying out Chromium OS on Virtualbox 3.1 on Ubuntu 9.10 Karmic Koala. Previously I was having the "Network not connected and offline login fail" error, but that was corrected when I changed my virtual adapter to bridged mode. But now, when I try to login, the VM hangs. There is no blank screen or anything, it just hangs! My virtual adapter is in bridged mode, and it is able to access the internet, no doubt in that. Any suggestions? Has anyon
[14:59] <Hrishikesh> e got the same problem?
[14:59] <ActionParsnip> zamba: ok lets be a little more specific (I hate intel vga so bad)
[15:00] <rahul_> great..!!!!!!!!!
[15:00] <zamba> ActionParsnip: so do i - from now on :p
[15:00] <zamba> but i had exactly the same problem with nvidia a couple of weeks ago
[15:00] <przemo_one> zamba here's your problem. you have some integrated graphic card. it's poor. what you need to do is check your bios settings for how much memory it have. give moreand then give a try. get better vga, because flash takes loads of vga and cpu power, so you're not the only one with this problem.
[15:01] <ActionParsnip> zamba: http://pastebin.com/d2873679f    try that, specifies 1024x768 res
[15:01] <zamba> ActionParsnip: well.. the monitor should be able to handle 1280x1024
[15:01] <Ziber> ActionParsnip: "bad superblock". same error
[15:01] <przemo_one> zamba there is temp solution. every file which is playd by flash is in /tmp. you can go on youtube, pouse, and open the file with totem. i do that with hd streams.
[15:02] <ActionParsnip> Hrishikesh: i'd ask in #vbox  for virtualbox help
[15:02] <ActionParsnip> zamba: then change it when you paste it....
[15:02] <przemo_one> zamba pause* :)
[15:02] <zamba> przemo_one: ok. i'll try that as well
[15:02] <Hrishikesh> ActionParsnip: yeah ok, thanks. I was just thinking of doing that
[15:03] <ActionParsnip> Hrishikesh: if the OS doesnt show its face at all hen its the virtualisation at fault
[15:03] <boomernang> Hi, i'm using ubuntu 9.10 64bit with nvidia drivers 185.18.36. I've got 2 monitors set up with twin view(worked flawlessly with default settings) except I can't save it to the X config. This means that I have to enable twin view everytime i boot ubuntu. When I click 'Save to X configuration file' in the Nvidia X Server Settings it says, 'Failure to parse existing X config file /etc/X11/xorg.conf'. It's not that much of an issue,
[15:03] <boomernang> but any idea how I can save the setup?
[15:03] <ActionParsnip> boomernang: run: gksudo nvidia-settings    you now can
[15:04] <ActionParsnip> boomernang: you will need to run: sudo nvidia-xconfig first
[15:04] <zamba> ActionParsnip: nope.. same problem
[15:04] <zamba> .. giving up for now
[15:04] <zamba> thanks for trying
[15:04] <Hrishikesh> ActionParsnip: Yeah, I guess  that is the logical reason :)
[15:04] <joodooo> Hi has anyone encountered a problem with skype? I hear others perfectly but they hear my voice as "robotic" and "scratching" ? I tried the test call and my voice sounds really bad.  ps: im using jaunty, and skype _used_ to work fine
[15:05] <Ziber> ActionParsnip: "bad superblock". same error
[15:05] <abhi> hi
[15:05] <ActionParsnip> Ziber: can you browse to it using nautilus?
[15:05] <abhi> hello all
[15:05] <abhi> anybody here?
[15:05] <Ziber> ActionParsnip: this is all CLI. Isnt nautilus a GUI program?
[15:05] <boomernang> ActionParsnip, cheers :)
[15:06] <ActionParsnip> Ziber: yeah, no problem. If you run: sudo smbtree ip.address.of.server    does it show the share?
[15:06] <Hrishikesh> joodooo: well, did you do a update or something? Maybe your microphone driver might not be working fine after an update. Just a guess
[15:06] <abhi> is there any GUI usb format tool for ubuntu?
[15:06] <ActionParsnip> abhi: gksudo gparted
[15:06] <przemo_one> hey everyone. i've found something interesting: "Adobe┬« Flash┬« Player 10.1 is the first runtime release of the Open Screen Project that..."
[15:06] <joodooo> Hrishikesh: nope
[15:07] <ActionParsnip> przemo_one: thats old news dude
[15:07] <Typh> What process would I kill to unlock a frozen "resize window" rectangle
[15:07] <ActionParsnip> przemo_one: and no 64bit
[15:07] <abhi> i know this, but i want to know is there something like right click--->format (like windows)
[15:07] <joodooo> My voice just recently started to be really bad to others.. on windows its working fine
[15:07] <ActionParsnip> przemo_one: yet ;)
[15:07] <Ziber> ActionParsnip: http://zpaste.org/5036
[15:07] <przemo_one> ActionPatsnip i thought that is says open source project :)
[15:07] <joodooo> it all came suddenly
[15:07] <Ziber> Doesnt show the share folder that I made tho
[15:07] <abhi> i mean in nautilus
[15:08] <przemo_one> ActionPatsnip flash <IP_ADDRESS> pre 64 is out :)
[15:08] <abhi> any action like windows's right click----->format
[15:08] <abhi> ?
[15:08] <ActionParsnip> abhi: cant happen as you are running as a user, users cannot format block devices
[15:08] <jtaby> hey, in the process of setting up gitosis (using the scie.nti.st tutorial), I created a new user called git. Except, I never set a password for the user, and I can't `su git` right now, cause I can't figure out the password
[15:08] <jtaby> any tips?
[15:08] <ActionParsnip> przemo_one: oh lots, i use it on all my 64bit system (only one ;))
[15:09] <jorik> jtaby: first su as root, then su git
[15:09] <ActionParsnip> Ziber: they arent sharing any folders except the default stuff
[15:09] <maco> ActionParsnip: well, theoretically it could be written with policykit
[15:09] <joodooo> does anyone have suggestions for my skype problem? (my voice is "robotic" but I hear others fine)
[15:09] <Ziber> ActionParsnip: yeah, why is that?
[15:09] <ActionParsnip> maco: bit messy, but yes
[15:09] <ActionParsnip> Ziber: you havent cofigured any shares
[15:09] <nastas> Hi all. i would like to make my laptop's card reader to work. anyone has any idea about this?
[15:09] <maco> ActionParsnip: bet we figure out how to do it in kde before gnome does :P
[15:09] <jtaby> jorik, to su as root, I do `su root`?
[15:10] <ActionParsnip> maco: go for it
[15:10] <ActionParsnip> jtaby: use: sudo -s
[15:10] <abhi> actionparsnip: i see, can i use chmod command to format block device?
[15:11] <abhi> to make it formattable
[15:11] <Ziber> ActionParsnip: I have "/network/alpha.ziber.org *(rw)" in /etc/exports on the first server...
[15:11] <ActionParsnip> abhi: not sure, just use gparted, its easier and I'm sure you wont do a whole tonne of formatting so its not worth it
[15:11] <sektorNBA> anyone good on lighttp around ?
[15:12] <Jamed> !anyone | sektorNBA
[15:12] <ActionParsnip> Ziber: http://pastebin.com/f3d436b72   thats my smb.conf, it defines 2 shares, CD and DOWNLOADS   you will have something similar on th server side

[15:14] <abhi> how it possible?
[15:14] <marc_> Is it possible to hide partition with GRUB2 ? I can't find info about a hide command, was it removed in grub2 or what? My WindowsXP is really slow at boot time when ext4 partition are visible (unknown to window)
[15:15] <Ziber> ActionParsnip: Ah ha, it shows up in smbtree now
[15:15] <abhi> i hav only one C: drive (ntfs) which is automount upon each boot using ntfs-config
[15:15] <abhi> what about the unmounted partiton?
[15:15] <ionut> hi all. can anyone tell me an application (eg for windows Adobe Flash or Macromedia) that can help me to manipulate flash and other things ?
[15:16] <ionut> for ubuntu 8.04
[15:16] <abhi> same thing happening for other ntfs partitions also
[15:16] <Ziber> ActionParsnip: But now... When I try to do the mount, I type in the two "\\" before Alpha, but in the error it returns, there's only one.
[15:16] <abhi> but after reboot everything go normal
[15:17] <abhi> it happening just after format any usb drive using gparted
[15:17] <abhi> any help?

[15:19] <sherri> sup room
[15:20] <rsukumar> hey guyz I've some alsa problem
[15:20] <ActionParsnip> Ziber: you will need to look at the smb.conf on the server side to check you are correctly sharing folders, you can't mount a server, you mount the share. You have not shared any folders (as you saw with smbtree) so any mount attemot will fail
[15:21] <Ziber> ActionParsnip: I'm trying to mount \\<IP_ADDRESS>\\share
[15:21] <ActionParsnip> Ziber: you need to share folders by edittng /etc/samba/smb.conf so it has an entry like mine for the folder you want to share, then restart the samba service
[15:22] <Diverdude> How do i install adobe acrobat reader?
[15:22] <ActionParsnip> Ziber: there was no folder shared as "share" in your smbtree wich means its not shared properly (or maybe at all)
[15:22] <abhi> diverdude: it has no linux version
[15:22] <savid> Help! trying to install apache, got this error when running apt-get install apache:  http://dpaste.com/133205/

[15:22] <abhi> u can try with wine
[15:22] <ActionParsnip> abhi: sure it does
[15:23] <Diverdude> abhi, hmm i dont believe that since they here offer a linux version: http://get.adobe.com/reader/thankyou/?installer=Reader_9.2_English_for_Linux_%28.bin%29
[15:23] <sektorNBA> can anyone help me to redirect https connections with lightt?
[15:23] <Ziber> ActionParsnip: http://zpaste.org/5038
[15:23] <ActionParsnip> Diverdude: http://ardownload.adobe.com/pub/adobe/reader/unix/9.x/9.2/enu/AdbeRdr9.2-1_i386linux_enu.deb
[15:23] <ActionParsnip> Diverdude: if you use 32bit install ia32bit-libs and then force install the app
[15:24] <rsukumar> FloodBot1: Anybody can help me in resolving alsa problem here?
[15:24] <abhi> diverdude: ohhh sorry, i forget about it :) actually i use evince in ubuntu to read pdf files
[15:24] <Diverdude> abhi, yes, but sometimes evince does not work :(
[15:24] <Ziber> ActionParsnip: How did you mount your share?
[15:25] <ActionParsnip> Diverdude: sorry if you use 64bit
[15:25] <Diverdude> ActionParsnip, thanx :)
[15:25] <savid> oh nm,  it was supposed to be apache2 not apache

[15:25] <bbitmaster> Can someone tell me if ATI cards should still be avoided like the plague, or if driver support really has gotten decent? (It's been a couple years since I've used ATI, and may be getting one soon)
[15:26] <Diverdude> ActionParsnip, yep already did it :) thx
[15:26] <abhi> diverdude: my system is 32bit intel & i never face problem with evince at all :D
[15:26] <ionut> so there isn't an application (free or payed) to manipulate flash on linux (for eg like Macromedia flash )????
[15:26] <sektorNBA> I use lighttp to redirect connections to my dmz servers. Http connection is working fine. How do i redirect https connections using mod_proxy of lighttp? I using $HTTP["host"] =~ "uca\.domain\.com\.br" { proxy.server = ( "" => ( ( "host" => "<IP_ADDRESS>", "port" => 80 ) ) ) }
[15:27] <Ziber> ActionParsnip: How did you mount your share?
[15:27] <ActionParsnip> Ziber: i use: //fileserver/DOWNLOADS /media/fileserver smbfs credentials=/home/andy/.smbpasswd 0 0
[15:27] <JPSman>  hey guys
[15:27] <ActionParsnip> Ziber: as my smb.conf has a share named DOWNLOADS
[15:28] <abhi> ionut: not sure about linux apps, u can try windows apps for this purpose via wine
[15:28] <ActionParsnip> Ziber: if I run: smbtree I can see my server sharing the folder using the same name
[15:28] <forceflow> anybody succesfully compiled scanalyzer on Ubuntu 9.10?
[15:28] <forceflow> I need it for a school project

[15:28] <abhi> try some googling
[15:28] <JPSman> My sound volume is acting weird.  Previously I have used my keyboards volume control to change it, and now it does steps of 3 instead of steps of 10 or so.  Any idea how I can change this?
[15:28] <Ziber> ActionParsnip: it does, here, i'll show you: http://zpaste.org/5038
[15:28] <Segaja> how can i get the dialog of gnomes Alt-F2 combo from the command line?
[15:28] <ActionParsnip> Ziber: yes, but even if you use that it wont work as the server isnt sharing anything
[15:28] <Diverdude> abhi, well here i had a printing problem...Evince printed total garbage from the pdf, and adobe printed perfectly
[15:28] <Ziber> ActionParsnip: see the paste. it is sharing it now
[15:28] <ActionParsnip> Ziber: on alpha?
[15:29] <ionut> abhi: and how can i install wine ?

[15:29] <Ziber> ActionParsnip: the share folder is on alpha.
[15:29] <ActionParsnip> Ziber: cool, then change the share name from  //fileserver/DOWNLOADS to //ALPHA/Share

[15:42] <Vooloo> my sound stops working for some reason, is there a way to see what process is locking it up so I can kill it?
[15:42] <csaba> Vooloo: ps ax|grep pulse ?
[15:43] <Vooloo> csaba: only lists pulseaudio... should I kill it?
[15:43] <csaba> no, if pulseaudio is running then it means your sound should be ok :/
[15:44] <Vooloo> when I hit play in any player the pointer does not move
[15:44] <csaba> what if you right-click your volume control, click Sound preferences, and then select the Hardware tab?
[15:45] <Vooloo> HDA intel (Alsa mixer)
[15:45] <csaba> ok and Applications?
[15:46] <dj_> hey guys how can i remove watermark from an image

[15:53] <DJones> rsukumar: Please don't do that
[15:53] <csaba> Vooloo: in your console, go to a directory where you have an mp3 or wav file, and do cat file.mp3 > /dev/dsp
[15:53] <maco> rsukumar: stop that
[15:53] <csaba> if you hear something, then it works

[15:54] <mheld> hey y'all
[15:54] <mheld> I'm running LD_PRELOAD=/usr/lib/libdlfaker.so:/usr/lib/librrfaker.so:/usr/lib/turbojpeg.so ./dmtcp/bin/dmtcp_checkpoint vglrun glxgears, and the LD_PRELOAD does preload the libraries but they get closed before dmtcp_checkpoint actually runs. Anybody know how I can convince the loader to leave the preloaded libraries in memory?

[15:54] <pj228> so anyhoo, I installed XP after installing karmic, and following the same guide I followed before (which worked) after installing 7 previously, now it complains when I try to chroot into my /mnt
[15:54] <DJones> laughzilla: I used to use an app called "motion" which would take a picture everytime the image in front of a webcam changed & would save it to disk, I don't know whether it would be possible to automatically upload to a website direct from motion, but presumably you could do that another way
[15:54] <maco> Vooloo: normal users dont have access to /dev/dsp, only pulseaudio does. unless you start with kubuntu or xubuntu since they dont use pulse
[15:54] <Vooloo> Im on hardy
[15:55] <laughzilla> djones - thanks :)  i'll look at "motion". i can't seem to find any webcam apps for ubuntu that automatically take a photo. is there a command line i can run to do it that i can stick in a .sh file and activate every second in crontab?
[15:55] <maco> Vooloo: ahh ok
[15:55] <Vooloo> changing to ALSA on everything works now
[15:55] <csaba> interesting
[15:55] <DJones> laughzilla: From memory, it was just a command line app
[15:55] <laughzilla> djones thanks :)

[16:00] <Y8uTube> hi everyone
[16:00] <boomernang> bittyx, try ./program
[16:00] <pj228> for reinstalling grub2 from the karmix livecd
[16:00] <papul> anyone used xmonad?
[16:00] <pj228> er, karmic
[16:00] <zomGreg> bitty, your path probably doesn't include /home/username
[16:01] <maco> papul: yes
[16:01] <xckpd7> how would I go about opening a .wvx file?
[16:01] <papul> maco, how is it?
[16:01] <mmkde> How do i start a program (as pidgin, for example) on desktop #2 under ubuntu 9.10?
[16:01] <zomGreg> either add your home directory to your path or make that program executable (chmod +x) and copy it to /usr/local/bin
[16:01] <maco> papul: im still using it a year later
[16:01] <papul> maco, how is it?
[16:01] <bittyx> boomernang: yeah, that works. i realize this is just a bad habit from win/dos environments where you can run whatever if you're currently in the parent directory.
[16:01] <maco> papul: would i still be using it if i didnt like it? :P
[16:01] <jrib> papul: xmonad is great, just try it
[16:02] <Y8uTube> ouais mais arr├¬te de zraven en fait

[16:02] <papul> shall it appear in gdm?

[16:03] <SoulBlade> hi guys - kcachegrind is crashing for me on startup when processing output from valgrind (it works fine w/o any input) - the error lines i see are sock_file=/home/user/.kde/socket-pc-name/kdeinit4__0 followed by connect() failed: No such file or directory
[16:03] <boomernang> bittyx, easy :) ./ means execute - nothing to do with directory. also google how to add your /home/username to your shell path... so you can actually type program from /etc for example
[16:03] <wvd> So, two days ago I installed Unbuntu, yesterday I tried getting my internet to work for like 7 hours.. but I failed. That's why I'll give you guys all information now: I'm using a siemens gigaset usb adapter 108, my router is a KPN experia box. The adapter is USB. It seems that the device is installed but fine, but the rest isn't. ndiswrapper -l shows this: http://codepad.org/waGbQDZY - iwconfig: http://codepad.org/5FsQaWxj - ifconfig: http://codepad.org/zv
[16:03] <SoulBlade> then KCrash cannot reach kdeinit, launching directly - and it pops up the dialog which says kcachegrind seg faulted

[16:06] <Homely_Girl> Does anyone here know how to set up a mobile b/band dongle on Koala? Can anyone help me plse??

[16:11] <rubbs> ranjan: is there a tmp filesystem?

[16:11] <LukaszT> ok

[16:13] <VirusTB> Subby,  does Cheese record Video also? forceflow
[16:13] <airtonix> nacitar, to achieve what ?
[16:13] <dAlfa89_> nacitar, put "& disown" on the end of the command, I think (Minus quotemarks)
[16:14] <forceflow> does the ownership go to parent process then?
[16:14] <grawity> nacitar: what dAlfa89_ suggested - OR wrap the entire command in ( )'s
[16:14] <nacitar> airtonix: nothing currently, just a curious thought I had.

[16:17] <rubbs> Huck: Did you just burn a CD then? My guess is the CD has an error and a re-burn might help
[16:17] <VirusTB> airtonix,   ok ill rephrase in a bit
[16:17] <wvd> Huck: Don't burn faster then 4x.
[16:17] <wvd> Huck: Check the CD for errors.

[16:22] <VirusTB> airtonix,  huh, still a bit unclear to me isnt there a package "pastebinit"
[16:22] <ranjan> rubbs :: any idea
[16:22] <ranjan> rubbs :: any idea

[16:23] <airtonix> ah well

[16:26] <VirusTB> You are trying to send an empty document, exiting.
[16:26] <Flare183> xckpd7: Its a dependency of Mplayer
[16:26] <javatexan> anyone know if there is a chat for google chrome/chromium?

[16:27] <isolat3dsh33p> DrMrHorse: Did you save the playlist?
[16:27] <bastid_raZor> VirusTB: lsb_release -a does not need to be pastebin'ed .. just copy the output in channel it should be 1 line
[16:27] <onetb> I am seeing that a lot of people are having trouble getting 9.10 to work on a USB drive.  I have used Unetbootin to make a bootable USB but then no OS is recongized when I try to use it.  Ideas?
[16:27] <airtonix> VirusTB, it was my original type it's meant to be lsb_release not lsb-release...it was just an example however
[16:27] <bastid_raZor> VirusTB: actually just give the name or version number.
[16:27] <ranjan> rubbs :: ok

(Being new at this I thought I would right click and see an option for sharing, just as I do when I share a folder. However there seems to be no such option. Please help me! Thank you inadvanced.

It seems that the device is installed but fine, but the rest isn't. ndiswrapper -l shows this: http://codepad.org/waGbQDZY - iwconfig: http://codepad.org/5FsQaWxj
[16:27] <wvd>  - ifconfig: http://codepad.org/zvxSsc6V - dmesg: http://codepad.org/GUMuI5b0 - Anyone could please take a look and might help? Thank you very much for reading.

[16:28] <ubuntu> hi, can anyone help me with grub2 reinstallation? I reinstalled it with this howto https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Grub2#Reinstalling%20GRUB%202 but all I get is grub prompt and no menu
[16:28] <VirusTB> bastid_raZor,  oh wait i need to have gnome-terminal  output sometihng into "pastebinit" first right? an then lsb_release -a ??
[16:29] <bastid_raZor> VirusTB: type in terminal lsb_release -a ..  and tell what the Codename says.
[16:29] <LewisDre4m> No one here knows how to share an optical drive in ubuntu? Christ.
[16:29] <Flare183> LewisDre4m: you can't.
[16:29] <LewisDre4m> back to windows I go lol. Thanks anyway guys.
[16:29] <bastid_raZor> VirusTB: no, be in gnome-terminal and type the lsb_release -a command.
[16:29] <maco> LewisDre4m: what doe share an optical drive even mean?
[16:29] <Flare183> LewisDre4m: but you can share the mounted folder
[16:29] <haresh> when i do a upgrade of wine i am getting this  The following packages have unmet dependencies:
[16:29] <bastid_raZor> VirusTB: others will have to help, my breakfast time.
[16:29] <maco> LewisDre4m: all users on the system should have access to the cd
[16:30] <mickster04> how do i fix the second screen on my ubuntu set up, nvisia graphics card won't let me set the resolution to 1280x1024
[16:30] <VirusTB> bastid_raZor,   ohh Ubutnu 9.10 , karmic
[16:30] <isolat3dsh33p> DrMrHorse: I'm not sure what's your problem, but you need to check if it is listed in your side bar under the playlist category in rythmbox. And if the music files are in different partition, make sure it is mounted.
[16:30] <Flare183> !dualhead | mickster04 (i think this is what you want)
[16:30] <LewisDre4m> Ok sorry if my thinking is windows like. I have set no network up or anything. My sister is connected to me on her xp machine. If I share a folder she can see it. I want to share my DVD drive so she can use it.
[16:31] <maco> LewisDre4m: share the folder where the dvd is mounted then
[16:31] <DrMrHorse> i want to play a song in the playlist in rhythmbox and have it stay on the playlist, not remove when played
[16:31] <LewisDre4m> In windows I can right click and share my optical drive in "MY COMPUTER" when I right click in "COMPUTER" in ubuntu I do not have such an option
[16:31] <Flare183> LewisDre4m: Follow what maco said, it should be mounted in /media/cdrom0 or /media/cdrom1
[16:32] <LewisDre4m> Flare183, what do you mean?
[16:32] <LewisDre4m> I can see my optical drive in "COMPUTER" how do I share it?
[16:32] <Flare183> LewisDre4m: found out where the drive is mounted at.
[16:32] <maco> LewisDre4m: when a dvd is in, its contents should show in /media/cdrom0 or thereabouts
[16:33] <maco> LewisDre4m: share that to share its contents
[16:33] <LewisDre4m> where do I locate its folder?
[16:33] <Flare183> maco, LewisDre4m: Exactly
[16:33] <LewisDre4m> sorry guys im obviously thick as s**t Im so confused.
[16:33] <Glowball> I noticed my Windows partition isn't recognized automatically anymore. I can mount it manually from terminal, but it isn't shown in /media..
[16:33] <Flare183> LewisDre4m: Press Alt+f2 and type in /media/
[16:33] <maco> LewisDre4m: you can type "mount" in a terminal, but really it should always be somewhere under /media
[16:34] <brummbaer> glowball, do you have an entry for the partition in your fstab?
[16:34] <flavetius> hello to all!
[16:34] <javatexan> its #chromium-support
[16:34] <Glowball> brummbaer: I guess not? :P
[16:34] <LewisDre4m> oh yes
[16:34] <LewisDre4m> I see the folder with the dvd contents
[16:34] <LewisDre4m> now I can share that
[16:34] <Glowball> brummbaer: In 9.04, it was detected automatically...
[16:34] <LewisDre4m> I understand. Where is that located if I wanted to manually navigate to that in future with the mouse?
[16:35] <flavetius> a question for all! I have installed ubuntu 9.10 and my wireless say me tha it's disabled
[16:35] <brummbaer> glowball, there's a nifty gui for adding entries to your fstab called pysdm (?pretty sure that's it)
[16:35] <papul> ok bye guys :D

[16:37] <Flare183> LewisDre4m: Awesome :)
[16:37] <wvd> Huck: Did you check the CD on any errors?
[16:37] <gizzmoe> imy english isnt so good, but i think its enough
[16:37] <LewisDre4m> Flare183:  So you think my sister will be able to play that via her xp machine now? (the dvd I mean)
[16:37] <Huck> not yet im still downloading new image...i ask only for information
[16:38] <wvd> Huck: It might be because of that wrong CD.
[16:38] <Huck> okok

[16:38] <lb__> hi! is there a chance to set up ubuntu on a machine that I can't connect a screen to? (It only has an empty HD at the moment)
[16:38] <LukaszT1> Now the problem is it doesn't want to save it
[16:38] <oCean_> gizzmoe: just state your question/issue in the channel...
[16:39] <LukaszT1> How do I save grub.cfg
[16:39] <gizzmoe> oh... okay... thx
[16:39] <Flare183> LukaszT1: Use gksudo gedit and edit it
[16:39] <LukaszT1> I tried that
[16:39] <rubbs> !de | gizzmoe
[16:39] <LukaszT1> I will again
[16:39] <Jamed> wvd: eth0 is your LAN, right?
[16:39] <gabriel_> gparted reports my disk being full and so I can't log in, but when I boot with a livecd, the disk usage analyzer shows 70GB free.
[16:40] <gabriel_> any ideas as to what is going on?
[16:40] <gizzmoe> my question is... when i want to watch a movie (rmvb and so on) on every player my screen is blue and so on, but not in the right colours... what can i do??
[16:40] <LukaszT1> It says it is read only?
[16:40] <bastid_raZor> gabriel_: that could be reserved space in /tmp or /var .. or some partition that the OS needs and uses other than /
[16:40] <Whitor_> lb__, it will be very difficult
[16:40] <Flare183> LukaszT1: You might have to edit it via the live CD
[16:40] <LukaszT1> how
[16:41] <LukaszT1> ok I will try tha thanks

[16:42] <jtapio> my suspend is not working ??
[16:42] <Jamed> wvd: yeah, ifconfig looks like that. since there is not wlan0 or eth1 (both possible for wlan), i'd say something is wrong with the driver. unfortunately i'm not familiar with ndiswrapper

[16:44] <dare> surely somebody here uses vlc on a regular basis?
[16:44] <wvd> Jamed: Though, before it said 'wlan0 cannot be found or something', and now it says 'wlan0 is not configured'
[16:44] <Jamed> wvd: did you check ifconfig with the other driver? when the device is listed there, it should work
[16:44] <Flare183> dj_: Yes you can. you just have to know how
[16:45] <eman> which ones better 9.04 or 9.10?
[16:45] <wvd> Jamed: Ah, didn't try, but with those other drivers ndiswrapper -l didn't say anything related to 'hardware present' or 'device installed'.

However I go into sharing options and tick share this folder but then it says "'net usershare' returned error 255: net usershare add: cannot share path /media/cdrom0 as we are restricted to only sharing directories we own.
[16:46] <LewisDre4m> 	Ask the administrator to add the line "usershare owner only = false"

[16:47] <TopKatz> hello -  I using a hardware raid card.  I'm wondering how I'm suposed to handle a kernel/eader upgrade with the cards drivers.  Right now I reboot the system after update, and have to reinstall the drivers, using make install.  I feel Im doing this wrong, as the raid has to come up with no drivers first.  Can I jsut do the make install before reboot, but after header update.  Should the make install build against the new header
[16:47] <TopKatz>  before reboot?
[16:47] <maco> LewisDre4m: system -> administration -> authorizations
[16:47] <maco> LewisDre4m: it wants you to give permissions to do that
[16:47] <gabriel_> bastid_raZor: Like I said, Gparted and System Monitor report the disk being full (5MiB free, 0MiB avail), so it would seem that on a block level, the disk thinks it is full (~107GiB), but when Disk Usage Analyzer looks at the actual files present, it only comes up with ~30GiB. As far as I know, no required directories are located on separate partitions, but is it possible for space to be reserved without it show
[16:47] <gabriel_> ing up as a file or as "Free but Unavailable" space in the System Monitor? BTW, thanks for the help
[16:47] <LewisDre4m> ok . . .

[16:56] <LukaszT1> Hi I had to chkmod it to +writable
[16:56] <Dr_Willis> mickster04:  i had to make a xorg.conf beforhand. then let the file save to the premade xorg.conf.. OR save  the config somewhere else first.. then copy it by hand to /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[16:56] <LukaszT1> chmod it*
[16:56] <LukaszT1> Then I made it readble again
[16:56] <gabriel_> no-name: go to the "Third-Party Software" tab, hit the "Add" button and paste it in there
[16:56] <rethus> conb123: maybe need a envirement-var which is not set
[16:56] <LukaszT1> It worked like magic :D
[16:56] <mickster04> Dr_Willis, well i have an xorg.conf
[16:57] <nacitar> conb123: Isn't xmms replaced by something else now, anyway?
[16:57] <LukaszT1> I did some research on google :D
[16:57] <LewisDre4m> maco: I have the samba crap open on the screen in a notepad kinda thing. I have scrolled down nd see something called global settings . . . I have that command copied to clipboard now what ? where I paste it?
[16:57] <gabriel_> no-name: then, you're going to want to do something like "apt-get install tor"
[16:57] <conb123> nacitar: Well i don't think it's that, here is what the script said http://pastebin.com/m3938ef
[16:57] <maco> LewisDre4m: just paste it after where it says [global] on its own line
[16:57] <maco> LewisDre4m: then save it
[16:57] <Dr_Willis> mickster04:  if some sections in it are mising it can confuse that nvidia tool. That tool is a little outdated.. ill pastebin my xorg.conf for you to try
[16:58] <LukaszT1> Ubuntu 9.10 is great :D
[16:58] <wvd> So, two days ago I installed Unbuntu, yesterday I tried getting my internet to work for like 7 hours.. but I failed. That's why I'll give you guys all information now: I'm using a siemens gigaset usb adapter 108, my router is a KPN experia box. The adapter is USB. It seems that the device is installed but fine, but the rest isn't. wlan0 isn't installed. ndiswrapper -l shows this: http://codepad.org/waGbQDZY - iwconfig: http://codepad.org/5FsQaWxj -
[16:58] <wvd> ifconfig: http://codepad.org/zvxSsc6V - dmesg: http://codepad.org/GUMuI5b0 - Anyone could please take a look and might help? I also tried downloading the drivers from http://sourceforge.net/apps/mediawiki/ndiswrapper/index.php?title=Siemens_Gigaset_USB_108 but then it doesn't show that any device/hardware is installed @ ndiswrapper + it gives error at dmesg, and wlan0 is still not there. Thank you very much.
[16:58] <gabriel_> no-name: where did you get that first line from? it should tell you what to do next there
[16:58] <LewisDre4m> so it says
[16:58] <LewisDre4m> [GLOBAL]
[16:58] <Dr_Willis> mickster04:  pastebinit /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[16:58] <Dr_Willis> http://pastebin.com/f22dde027
[16:58] <LewisDre4m> [GLOBAL]
[16:58] <LewisDre4m> usershare owner only = false"
[16:58] <LewisDre4m> and I do that?
[16:58] <Dr_Willis> mickster04:  you can backup your xorg.conf if you want. try copying that one over.. then letting the nvidia config tool to its tweaks to it.
[16:58] <cmcx_linux> good day, I have some trouble with apparmor on a jaunty box, the thing is that id does not load the module at startup, and I can't find any useful info in the logs to why is behaving like that. Can someone point me to some help? Thank you.
[16:58] <gabriel_> bastid_raZor: no ideas, eh?
[16:59] <mickster04> Dr_Willis, cheers bud
[16:59] <LewisDre4m> maco: that ok? just underneeth?
[16:59] <conb123> nacitar: Should i perhaps set this /home/connor/.config/xmms2 as $XMMS_CONFIG in .bashrc ?
[16:59] <maco> LewisDre4m: yep
[16:59] <Dr_Willis> mickster04:  that tool is really an annoyance. :) i keep my xorg.conf's archived/backed up on my UbuntOne account now. :)
[16:59] <trism> conb123: xmms isn't included in ubuntu/debian anymore, the libraries you have are xmms2, which is different (it is asking for the original xmms)
[16:59] <eman> does the ubuntu 9.10 disc have a live setup?
[16:59] <LewisDre4m> ITS SHARED
[16:59] <Dr_Willis> eman:  what do you mean by live setup? its a live cd..
[16:59] <conb123> trism: Ahhh well it does say 1.2.10+
[17:00] <LewisDre4m> maco: I am going to marry you. I hope you don't mind.
[17:00] <eman> ya the live cd to test it out
[17:00] <conb123> trism: Should i perhaps remove any xmms related packages and then install the old version from the source package on the site?
[17:00] <Dr_Willis> eman:  the desktop cd is a live cd.
[17:00] <eman> sorry thats what i meant to day
[17:01] <LewisDre4m> maco: thank you so much. people like you make such a difference nd stop us having to go back to windows!. Thank you.
[17:01] <ubuntu_> i have 80GB on sdb and 300 GB on sda... all data of 80gb should copied to 300gb... can i use dd ?
[17:01] <eman> thank u
[17:01] <maco> LewisDre4m: haha
[17:01] <Dr_Willis> conb123:  xmms and xmms2 are 2 very different programs.
[17:01] <maco> LewisDre4m: no problem!
[17:01] <trism> conb123: can't really say, I'm not sure what you're trying to build
[17:01] <ubuntu_> dd if=/dev/sdb of=/dev/sda ?
[17:01] <Jamed> wvd: after i read
[17:01] <Jamed> 1
[17:01] <Jamed> 2
[17:01] <LewisDre4m> maco: i will go see if she can play dvd via comp now
[17:01] <maco> ok
[17:01] <Jamed> oops
[17:01] <conb123> Dr_willis: But they are just different versions aren't they?
[17:01] <Dr_Willis> conb123:  Nope.. they are RADICALLY DIFFERNT programs
[17:02] <Leoneof`> i need simple firewall to control all applications, like Kaspersky or Norton when they notify me about software is trying to access internet
[17:02] <ubuntu_> how can i disable all thees in and out messages on xchat ?
[17:02] <edbian> How does openoffice make any money?
[17:02] <npope> Leoneof`: iptables
[17:02] <conb123> Dr_Willis: ah ok well that's a little confusing, i shall grab it from the site the script gave me
[17:02] <wvd> Jamed: What?
[17:02] <Dr_Willis> conb123:  xmms is really not worth messing with these days. theres better players out there.
[17:02] <Leoneof`> npope: need GUI, not text terminal
[17:02] <aaron11> Hi Im having a problem on xtightvncviewer. I want to connect to my windows machine that has TightVNC Server. The password I entered was ok but at the end it said this: vncviewer: VNC server closed connection
[17:02] <aaron11> . And one time it said this: vncviewer: read: Connection reset by peer
[17:02] <aaron11> . This windows computer is on my local host and I can VNC to my Ubuntu on windows. This is a problem that took place in Ubuntu Karmic Koala.
[17:03] <cmcx_linux> ubuntu, it will copy all hard drive info, including parition layout and after that, your 300gb hard drive will look as an 80 gigs one. try to make the same layout on the 300gb one with fdisk ( partition wise) and after dd if=/dev/sdb1 of=/dev/sda1 for each partition on the disk
[17:03] <npope> Leoneof`: their is a gui front end to it called fire something
[17:03] <Jamed> wvd: i cant paste the link, but ive read the sourceforge stuff and it sais you have to install athfmwdl too. the output of ndiswrapper -l only shows net5523. did you install hte other one?
[17:03] <conb123> Dr_Willis: Oh no i'm only installing it as a a dependency for something else, i am attempting to install the currenttrack plugin for pidgin
[17:03] <geoaxis> hello people, I have a strange problem, on a laptop I have installed windows 7, now i want to install ubuntu, fdisk can see windows partitions, but ubuntu installer cannot
[17:03] <no-name> gabriel_ yeah i misread i had to add it to /etc/apt/sources.list
[17:03] <Dr_Willis> conb123:  most programs ive seen that use 'xmms'  can use audacious  instead.
[17:03] <Leoneof`> npope: Firestarter is for blocking IP not application
[17:03] <wvd> Jamed: That are still old pastebins, I installed them both, and it gave me some errors @ dmesg and iwconfig still only showed eth/lo
[17:03] <geoaxis> also it says that Partition 1 does not end on cylinder boundry
[17:04] <wvd> Jamed: Those pastebins where with the working device
[17:04] <aaron11> geoaxis: Did you look at Gparted
[17:04] <ubuntu_> is this right to copy from sdb to sda ???   dd if=/dev/sdb of /dev/sda
[17:04] <npope> Leoneof`: if you want to block application look into SElinux or similar
[17:04] <Jamed> wvd: i have no more ideas then
[17:04] <geoaxis> aaron11: yes, it says the same, fdisk looks like this http://pastebin.ca/1714574
[17:04] <Dr_Willis> conb123:   there some 'streamtuner/streamriper/tunapie' programs in the repos i recall that are silly still using 'xmms' as their default for some tasks.. i just changed them to use audacious in their settings and they worked.
[17:05] <wvd> Jamed: Sadly you're not the only one :-(
[17:05] <ubuntu_> is this right to copy from sdb to sda ???   dd if=/dev/sdb of /dev/sda
[17:05] <geoaxis> aaron11: Gparted also says that its all empty
[17:05] <brummbaer> Leoneof: ubuntu has apparmor, you could write a profile for the app. you can also just write iptables rules to block outbound comm on the apps port...
[17:05] <aaron11> geoaxis: Are the hard drive/s monted
[17:05] <aaron11> geoaxis: mounted

[17:06] <LewisDre4m> maco: It turns out she can't see anything I share on this computer rofl.
[17:06] <MindVirus> Can I prune it?
[17:06] <aaron11> oops

[17:11] <bdesk> Should I install gitosis using apt-get or using easy_install or using source?
[17:11] <Sepho> hi everybody!!
[17:11] <npope> bdesk: apt-get
[17:11] <Nytek_> bdesk, apt-get ftw
[17:11] <aaron11> !hi | Sepho
[17:11] <Sepho> Anyone knows where are the menu.lst in the lastest version of Ubuntu? I can't find it under /boot/grub/menu.lst and I want to add another kernel image
[17:11] <bdesk> The reason I ask is because apt-get was broken on Jaunty (I have Karmic) and I failed to google install instructions for the apt-get version.

[17:12] <medion> aaron11:  hahaha this might work thanks dude
[17:12] <aaron11> medion: Restart ok
[17:12] <bdesk> I mean the apt-get version of gitosis was broken for Jaunty.
[17:12] <Nytek_> bdesk, then sources might be the way to go :)
[17:12] <bastid_raZor> !grub2 | Sepho look at this website for more info on grub2, which is what 9.10 uses
[17:12] <Nytek_> bdesk, update your etc/apt/sources.list file
[17:13] <bdesk> Has anyone here actually installed gitosis using apt-get on Karmic?

[17:17] <aaron11> LewisDre4m: Did you setup samba
[17:17] <LewisDre4m> no what is is that?
[17:17] <aaron11> !samba | LewisDre4m

[17:18] <LewisDre4m> installing samba now
[17:18] <LewisDre4m> After installing SAMBA they will be able to see files I have shared correct?
[17:18] <jrib> aaron11: best to just ask the channel your actual question (on a single line)
[17:19] <aaron11> jrib: What do you mean? I just gave all my details
[17:19] <LewisDre4m> jrib don't be sarcastic to him he has been very helpful and is looking for help himself.
[17:19] <jrib> aaron11: I mean please don't follow your question with pleas for help
[17:19] <jrib> LewisDre4m: I'm not being sarcastic
[17:19] <khelvan> Hi, I had to replace a dead motherboard (ASUS P6T Deluxe V2) with a new one (ASUS P6X58D) - when I boot for the first time, is Ubuntu 64 going to give me any problems?
[17:20] <LewisDre4m> aaron11: Just ignore it.
[17:20] <aaron11> jrib: Well I hardely have time. Forget that do you know the answer?
[17:22] <jrib> aaron11: everyone's question is important.  Following your question with "please help me", "I really need this", and similar isn't productive.  It just contributes noise to the channel
[17:22] <BlueX> does ubuntu 9.10 have more problems than 9.04?
[17:22] <LewisDre4m> jrib: for christ sake give it a rest.
[17:22] <jrib> aaron11: if I know the answer to your question, I will try to help you
[17:22] <bishop> aaron  i do not know but others might. give them a chance
[17:22] <aaron11> ok
[17:22] <jrib> LewisDre4m: I'm just trying to keep this channel semi-sane
[17:23] <aaron11> sure i am just writing into the fourm
[17:23] <bishop> i know about computer problems... hard to be patient...
[17:23] <LewisDre4m> jrib: ok
[17:25] <jrib> aaron11: check for firewall issues

[17:25] <jrib> aaron11: on the server?
[17:26] <aaron11> jrib: BTW is there gona be hackers tring to get through my system on Ubuntu
[17:26] <blakkheim> changing your operating system doesn't magically make hackers go away.
[17:27] <LewisDre4m> aaron11:  I shared stuff in samba but still not coming up in her network places on her pc.
[17:27] <jrib> aaron11: maybe though it's not really something you have to worry about unless you start exposing services to the outside world (by default ubuntu does not run any services exposed to the outside world).  Otherwise, just stick to software from trusted repositories and you will be fine
[17:27] <aaron11> LewisDre4m: Try going to ssh
[17:27] <LewisDre4m> Aaron11: ssh?
[17:27] <aaron11> LewisDre4m: This is the last stand
[17:27] <Rievax> Hello everyone!
[17:28] <LewisDre4m> ?
[17:28] <aaron11> LewisDre4m: go to places
[17:28] <lazydragoon> hey guy i got problem to install farsight for amsn i really need help
[17:28] <philipp_> is there a command line command like "press button a"
[17:28] <aaron11> wait
[17:28] <aaron11> LewisDre4m: Can we talk in private
[17:28] <Rievax> Anybody with Bind9 knowledge with secondary zones?
[17:29] <philipp_> is there a command line command like "press button a"
[17:29] <coz_> philipp_,  what are you trying to do?
[17:29] <blakkheim> LewisDre4m: are you trying to share files between windows and linux?
[17:29] <jrib> philipp_: yes, but please don't repeat so fast... check out xvkbd
[17:30] <LewisDre4m> blakkheim: yes, I can see all pcs on network and their files but they cant see my ubuntu machine
[17:30] <jrib> LewisDre4m: can you see the share on the ubuntu machine itself?
[17:30] <khelvan> LewisDre4m - You can't see a SAMBA share from Windows, or from linux?
[17:30] <blakkheim> LewisDre4m: have you tried setting up an NFS server on ubuntu?
[17:31] <lazydragoon> someone can help me with my farsight ?
[17:31] <philipp_> coz_ that i press a specal key on my keyboard and the command presses multpe keys
[17:31] <LewisDre4m> jesus no. I have a fresh ubuntu install. im conected to internet and I can see all other xp machines and their shared files but they cant see mine. why is this?
[17:31] <lazydragoon> well farsight2
[17:31] <coz_> philipp_,  ah ok     I dont think I can help with this one
[17:32] <LewisDre4m> Can you help?
[17:32] <migi_> hey everyone, is there an easy way to add a passwordless "guest" user to the karmic login menu (for my family)?
[17:32] <aaron11> LewisDre4m: Please answer
[17:32] <khelvan> LewisDre4m - Sorry, I always have problems the other way around. Ubuntu sometimes has a hard time seeing SAMBA shares. Maybe the solution there will help? Try installing winbind on your Ubuntu machine.
[17:33] <bishop> bbak soon
[17:33] <jrib> LewisDre4m: three people asked you a question and you didn't answer a single one.  Pick someone, address them, and give them information so they can troubleshoot
[17:33] <LewisDre4m> I can see everysingle computer in my network and access their files however they cannot see mine
[17:33] <migi_> hey everyone, is there an easy way to add a passwordless "guest" user to the karmic login menu (for my family)?
[17:34] <wvd> So, two days ago I installed Unbuntu, yesterday I tried getting my internet to work for like 7 hours.. but I failed. That's why I'll give you guys all information now: I'm using a siemens gigaset usb adapter 108, my router is a KPN experia box. The adapter is USB. It seems that the device is installed but fine, but the rest isn't. wlan0 isn't installed. ndiswrapper -l shows this: http://codepad.org/waGbQDZY - iwconfig: http://codepad.org/5FsQaWxj -
[17:34] <wvd> ifconfig: http://codepad.org/zvxSsc6V - dmesg: http://codepad.org/GUMuI5b0 - Anyone could please take a look and might help? I also tried downloading the drivers from http://sourceforge.net/apps/mediawiki/ndiswrapper/index.php?title=Siemens_Gigaset_USB_108 but then it doesn't show that any device/hardware is installed @ ndiswrapper + it gives error at dmesg, and wlan0 is still not there. Thank you very much.
[17:34] <mickster04> how do i get 5.1 speakers working?

[17:35] <migi_> hey everyone, is there an easy way to add a passwordless "guest" user to the karmic login menu (for my family)?
[17:35] <indian_munnda> can anyone tell me how do i know that which graphics card my motherboard supports whether PCI or AGP???
 sry but the man realy sucks.... whats the command that i have to enter to press the button "a"
[17:35] <lazydragoon> please my amsn said he can't not detect my farsight install and i don't know why
[17:36] <blakkheim> indian_munnda: you need to look at the motherboard
[17:36] <LjL> philipp_, we heard you the first time. there's no need to repeat like that.
[17:36] <indian_munnda> blakkhein: but what i have to look for?
[17:36] <mickster04> migi_, system>admin>users and groups?
[17:36] <Joelito> Hi all, a question about using ubuntu CD alternate...
[17:37] <nacitar> indian_munnda: open the case, look at the board.
[17:37] <blakkheim> indian_munnda: either a PCI/e slot or an AGP slot, you can find pictures of both of them on wikipedia or google.
[17:37] <migi_> mickster04, it says I have to give it a password
[17:37] <Joelito> is it possible to use any alternate CD version as like debian's netinstall?
[17:37] <khelvan> LewisDre4m, jrib asked  you if you can see your Ubuntu share on the Ubuntu machine itself. blakkheim asked you if you tried setting up an NFS server on Ubuntu. I think you answered my question, but you did not use my name in your response. On IRC you should address the person who you are responding to so that their name is highlighted and they are alerted as to your response.
[17:37] <mickster04> migi_, in which case use "guest" then leave a post it?
[17:37] <indian_munnda> blakkheimok thanks man
[17:38] <migi_> mickster04, dude what age are we?
[17:38] <mickster04> migi_, 22?
[17:38] <kantxx> whats the diff from ubuntu desktop & server isos?
 so he dont answers what now?
[17:38] <blakkheim> kantxx: one is for desktop use, one is for server use, but they can both be altered to do the opposite.
[17:38] <migi_> mickster04, lol, no, I meant a post-it with a password is stone age technology :)
[17:39] <migi_> age as in year
[17:39] <mickster04> migi_, oh, well its the easiest thing so u dont have to tell everyone
[17:39] <LewisDre4m> If I go into PLACES / NETWORK I have a folder that says WINDOWS NETWORK and it has all the computers on my network and I can view their files. HOWEVER if I share files on this ubuntu machine they cannot see them or anything.
[17:39] <kantxx> blakkheim: does server just cut out the crap?(ie bluetooth n stuff)
[17:39] <mickster04> LewisDre4m, have u installed samba properly?
[17:39] <blakkheim> kantxx: the server iso is still almost 700mb, i would just use the minimal iso if you need a "cut down" version
[17:39] <LewisDre4m> mickster04: I installed Samba a min ago yes
[17:39] <indian_munnda> blakkheim both the slots looks to be same....:(
[17:39] <migi_> mickster04, no, but are you serious that a 2009 operating system is incapable of a simple guest account without a password?
[17:39] <kantxx> blakkheim: hmm i just want simple X.. mainly  console
[17:40] <Joelito> how can I use the ubuntu CD alternate to install only system base and not GUI?
[17:40] <blakkheim> kantxx: i would just use the minimal iso and then install X and the apps you need
[17:40] <mickster04> migi_, sudo adduser ?
[17:40] <LewisDre4m> If I go into PLACES / NETWORK I have a folder that says WINDOWS NETWORK and it has all the computers on my network and I can view their files. HOWEVER if I share files on this ubuntu machine they cannot see them or anything.  THAT is what i'm having the problem with
[17:40] <blakkheim> Joelito: use the minimal iso like i am explainint
[17:40] <blakkheim> indian_munnda: there is a difference. how old is your motherboard?
[17:40] <migi_> mickster04, I'll try that, thx
[17:40] <khelvan> LewisDre4m, try this video, it should help you: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=deb2jRm3c7g
[17:40] <maverick> suddenly my resolution has decreased terribly from 1360x768 to 800x600 after reboot, and it wont go back!!... my monitor isnt getting dectected in display tab
[17:41] <blakkheim> maverick: check your video driver
[17:41] <indian_munnda> blakkheim its Intel 845 Family chipset..
[17:41] <LewisDre4m> khelvan: thank you. I cant belive no one knows how to make files visable on a ubuntu machine from a xp machine
[17:41] <blakkheim> indian_munnda: run "lspci" and pastebin the outpupt
 sry but the man realy sucks.... whats the command that i have to enter to press the button "a"
[17:41] <Joelito> blakkheim Sorry, didn't see your comment, but can't we just use the alternate CD or passing some extra params to the boot line?
[17:41] <Dr_Willis> LewisDre4m:  i always make identically named users on the linxu and window box's i also give each linux user a 'samba password' (via  sudo smbpasswd -a USERNAME)   be sure the workgroups are the same in /etc/samba/smb.conf also.
[17:41] <mickster04> LewisDre4m, it may need a restart? check the samba config at /etc/samba/smb.conf
[17:41] <khelvan> LewisDre4m, also, PLEASE include the full name of the person you are addressing in your response. You can do that by typing just the first few letters of their name and hitting TAB.
[17:41] <maverick> blakkheim: but there was no video driver before, it accepted it and gave me the optimal resolution automatically
[17:41] <blakkheim> Joelito: the alternate install is still on the bloated side, if you want a minimal console environment you should use the minimal iso
[17:41] <indian_munnda> blakkheim i m on windows right wait i m switching to ubuntu dont go...
[17:41] <Dr_Willis> LewisDre4m:  an alternative way to get files back and forth from a windows to linux box. is install  the ssh server. and just use 'winscp'
[17:41] <blakkheim> indian_munnda: oh my bad sorry
[17:42] <indian_munnda> y:)
[17:42] <khelvan> LewisDre4m, plenty of people know that, but you haven't answered their specific questions here. People ask specific questions because you need specific assistance. You can't just give a vague description of the problem and expect someone to provide a solution for you.
[17:42] <Dr_Willis> Shall i point out that there are severl html  'books' on using samba in the repiositories. In the 'samba-doc' package :)
[17:42] <philipp_> can someone PLEASE say me how i can press a button with a console command?
[17:42] <Dr_Willis> !info samba-doc
[17:43] <khelvan> Dr_Willis, he left. How does he expect help if he asks for it, people try to help him, and he ignores their responses?
[17:43] <Dr_Willis> philipp_:   depends on the details. Ive never seen it done in a simple way
[17:43] <Polta> philipp_, windows key and T for terminal..
[17:43] <Dr_Willis> philipp_:  what are you trying do do exactly?
[17:43] <mickster04> philipp_, how can u use the console if u havent got a keyboard?
[17:44] <Polta> you can also use alt and the F keys @ philip
[17:44] <bep> I did a fresh minimal install and installed xorg and when I try to launch a session I get "X: user not authorized to run the X server, aborting."
[17:44] <jrib> philipp_: xvkbd -xsendevent -tex ...   but you should answer Dr_Willis's question
[17:44] <bep> is there a group i need to be added to?
[17:44] <jrib> philipp_: s/tex/text
[17:44] <mw> hello everybody
[17:44] <blakkheim> bep: did you create ~/.xinitrc?
[17:44] <Polta> hello mw
[17:44] <bep> blakkheim: how do i do that?
[17:45] <khelvan> Hi, I had to replace a dead motherboard (ASUS P6T Deluxe V2) with a new one (ASUS P6X58D) - when I boot for the first time, is Ubuntu 64 going to give me any problems?
[17:45] <philipp_>  Dr_Willis to make a macro to press several keys by pressing one (useing xbindkey)
[17:45] <cdahmedeh> hello, i want to make a folder that is always 'synced' on another.. basically.. so for example, if i create or change a file on one, a copy of this same file is created else automatically
[17:45] <blakkheim> bep: you don't need it if you are using something like GDM, but if you're starting X through "startx" you need an .xinitrc to choose what DE/WM you want to use
[17:45] <jrib> cdahmedeh: why?
[17:45] <ubuntu_> how can i migrate my filesystem from ext3 to ext4?
[17:45] <philipp_> jrlb so what i have to enter to press button a?
[17:45] <cdahmedeh> i want to make backups of documents on another media
[17:45] <bep> blakkheim: well I am using xbmc standalone and xinit /usr/bin/xbmc-standalone produces that error but sudo xinit /usr/bin/xbmc-standalone does not
[17:46] <jrib> philipp_: 'a'
[17:46] <jrib> philipp_: you pass 'a' as an argument to -text
[17:46] <coz_> cdahmedeh,  you can install dropbox  for 2 gigs free if you like
[17:46] <Plouj> hi
[17:46] <blakkheim> bep: never used that, sorry. i just use startx
[17:46] <Dr_Willis> philipp_:  i was almost thinking he was asking how to hit the 'ok' button in the console. :)  people diont think to hit tab and enter..
[17:46] <cdahmedeh> jrib : i don't always have an internet connection.. i just want it to be copied onto a usb stick
[17:46] <bep> blakkheim: i get the same error with startx
[17:46] <ubuntu_> how can i migrate my filesystem from ext3 to ext4?
[17:46] <cdahmedeh> jrib : automatically that is
[17:46] <Polta> ubuntu slave a secondary IDE use gparted to format it to ext4 then simply copy all the files from the Master to the Slave and when your finished swap the disks over.
[17:47] <jrib> cdahmedeh: i see
[17:47] <blakkheim> bep: what DE/WM are you trying to use? are you starting X as your user or as root?
[17:47] <mickster04> how do i get 5.1 surround sound working plz? i have the appropriate plug holes inbuilt into the mobo...
[17:47] <bep> blakkheim: trying to as my user. i dont have a wm installed right now, but like i said xbmc-standalone starts up fine with sudo
 isnt there a easyer way as copy the hole disk?
[17:47] <Plouj> how would I go about installing a newer version (1.5) of encfs in Ubuntu Hardy (LTS)?
[17:47] <Polta> mickster04 alsamixer, after you plug it in
[17:48] <blakkheim> bep: if you don't have a WM what does xbmc put you in?
[17:48] <indian_munnda> !pastebin
[17:48] <Polta> ubuntu, there maybe I just suggested that as it was the first thing that popped into my mind
[17:48] <philipp_> no good
[17:48] <mw> i have the follwing problem: using (k)ubuntu 9.10 on a hp notebook, i can activate the integrated wireless lan card (lspci: 02:04.0 Network controller: Broadcom Corporation BCM4318 [AirForce One 54g] 802.11g Wireless LAN Controller (rev 02)) with the bc43 kernel module. i can connect to the network, even the wlan hotkey and the led work nicely. problem now: after about 10 or 20 mb of data downloaded, the connection getsy slower and slower, though
[17:48] <mw>  not breaking off completely. after about 20 mb, the connection speed goes down to 200 bytes/sec (it actually works, the data received is correct, but way too slow). after trying w/ winxp, i can say that the problem is NOT the wireless device itself, but must be something with the driver.  i would appreciate any ideas.
[17:48] <bep> blakkheim: i think its own minimal one? im not sure, literally the only thing i installed was xbmc-standalone xorg x11-utils
[17:48] <indian_munnda> blakkheim, dude check this http://paste.ubuntu.com/341325/
[17:49] <conb123> Does ubuntu have a basic video editor included by default?
[17:49] <duffydack> i updated my phones firmware and now its not detected as memory stick in karmic...its detected by lsusb
[17:50] <eman> can someone help me decide if i should upgrade to 9.10?
[17:50] <blakkheim> indian_munnda: looks like you have a pci slot
[17:50] <blakkheim> bep: try installing a window manager
[17:50] <jrib> eman: if you don't have a reason to then don't
[17:50] <indian_munnda> blakkheim, oh really thanks man
[17:50] <ubuntu_> eman: never touch a running system ;)
[17:50] <medion> i need help i dont have sound on flash videos
[17:50] <mickster04> polta, its already plugged in and alsa doesnt see them
[17:50] <bep> blakkheim: thats what im trying to avoid by using xbmc-standalone. this is primarily a small server machine, but with xbmc thrown on top
[17:50] <_talon> i have found recordmydesktop for making tutorials, but how can I add comments to the videos I produce?
[17:51] <Polta> eman, I upgraded from 9.01 to 9.10 and regretted it afterward, it is not a painless upgrade
[17:51] <eman> i wont bother then thanks!!!!!!!!!!!
[17:51] <blakkheim> bep: oh ok. you could go with a very minimal WM like openbox/dwm just for testing. if it's a server, why do you need X?
[17:51] <bep> blakkheim: well i figured i could eliminate one 24/7 machine by just adding a mediacenter app to the server
[17:51] <philipp_> aaaaaaaaa
[17:51] <goran> jupiiii
[17:52] <ubuntu_> someone here has migrate suse ot kubuntu ?
[17:52] <blakkheim> bep: well, you could ssh -X into the server and run the app that way maybe?
[17:52] <blakkheim> bep: or does it have to be attached to the server?
[17:52] <Polta> mickster04, are you sure its in the right plug socket? if a pair of speakers has worked on there before they should have no probs with 5.1 surrond
[17:52] <jas72z> whats the best way to remove kde desktop ubuntu 9.04
[17:53] <bep> blakkheim: well its a small more of a nas than server that is in a small htpc style case so im running it right on the machine
[17:53] <mickster04> polta, it works straight up in windows, i dual boot
[17:53] <ubuntu_> jas72z:; i have seen a howto in wiki some time ago
[17:53] <indian_munnda> blakkheim, can u suggest me a graphics card with that configuration?
[17:53] <mickster04> Polta, a pair of the speakers work the rest doont
[17:53] <jas72z> ok thanks will have look
[17:53] <pmjdebruijn> hi
[17:53] <blakkheim> bep: does it have a monitor or is it headless? if it's headless, i would just SSH to it and run it that way. if it's got a monitor we will try something else.
[17:53] <DJones> jas72z: Do you want gnome instead of kubuntu?
[17:54] <blakkheim> indian_munnda: depends on your needs and if the PCI slot is a PCIe or not
[17:54] <bep> blakkheim: hooked up to lcd in bedroom
[17:54] <jas72z> I have both but never use kde
[17:54] <pmjdebruijn> in a few days GNOME 2.28.2 will be released, does anybody here know, whether those minor changes/bugfixes will be integrated into Karmic?
[17:54] <blakkheim> bep: and it's just one application that you need on it?
[17:54] <_talon> pmjdebruijn: unlikely
[17:54] <ubuntu_> jas72z: i don't remember exactly, but was something like remove kde-desktop
[17:54] <bep> blakkheim: besides the server type apps yes
[17:54] <ubuntu_> it wasn't much work
[17:54] <indian_munnda> blakkheim, now how to check that...:)
[17:54] <DJones> !puregnome | jas72z This will remove all kde & install gnome,
[17:54] <blakkheim> pmjdebruijn: ubuntu isn't exactly bleeding edge so i doubt it will make it
[17:55] <jas72z> ok thankyou
[17:55] <_talon> pmjdebruijn: debian sid if you want that
[17:55] <blakkheim> indian_munnda: if you could find the model of your motherboard that would help
[17:55] <_talon> pmjdebruijn: but other things will breeak
[17:55] <pmjdebruijn> _talon, blakkheim .1 already made it into the release, and 2.28.2 is just a minor bugfix release
[17:55] <pmjdebruijn> _talon: I'm not talking about 2.29.x
[17:55] <blakkheim> bep: i would install a very small WM then like DWM and just run the one app pwith it
[17:55] <indian_munnda> blakkheim, u mean picture of motherboard?
[17:55] <FelipeS> hey guys. about to load ubuntu-netbook-remix on a flash drive. It mentions using .img files as opposed to .iso files. It seems only .iso files can be downloaded. Is there really any difference between them?
[17:55] <blakkheim> indian_munnda: no i mean the model number
[17:55] <ubuntu_>  !purekde | ubuntu_
[17:56] <indian_munnda> blakkheim, isn't it in the lspci output?
[17:56] <blakkheim> indian_munnda: like if you built your computer, you would know what motherboard you used. if you bought a prebuilt then you can find the model of it and maybe we can find out that way.
[17:56] <blakkheim> indian_munnda: i don't see anything about it in your lspci output
[17:57] <indian_munnda> blakkheim, i bought it prebuilt
[17:57] <blakkheim> indian_munnda: do you know the model of the computer then?
[17:57] <duffydack> doh!  i choose phone mode (used for using as a modem etc, not memory stick) it connects as auto usb0 and is available for both modes!!  god bless ubuntu
[17:57] <indian_munnda> blakkheim, its a intel 845 family chipset
[17:58] <bep> blakkheim: "sudo dpkg-reconfigure x11-common" says that "User allowed to start x session" is Console Users Only. Other options are anybody (wouldnt that be security issue) and root only
[17:58] <chatterhand> hallo
[17:58] <benkong2> anyone know how I can contact the laptop testing developers?
[17:58] <benkong2> Got boot concerns?
[17:58] <blakkheim> indian_munnda: that's the chipset, multiple motherboards have it. http://www.intel.com/support/chipsets/sb/cs-009236.htm

[18:12] <Leoneof`> hi
[18:12] <indian_munnda> blakkheim, will any of these help us finding the slot whether its PCI or PCIe???
[18:12] <blakkheim> indian_munnda: yes
[18:12] <tobylane> k, which is better
[18:12] <mw> jas72z: that might be because i have 23 (!) wireless lans around here. but, the problem does not occur when trying with win xp. try anyway?
[18:12] <indian_munnda> blakkheim, ok then i m pastebining it...
[18:12] <Dr_Willis> tobylane:  try the torrents. see how fast they are..   during the few weeks after release the torrents were 100x faster for me then the fileservers
[18:12] <Dr_Willis> tobylane:  it just depends.
[18:12] <tobylane> oh sorry didnt say, its lynx alpha 1
[18:12] <blakkheim> if you use lshw it needs to be run as root, sysinfo can be normal user
[18:12] <jas72z> mw may be worth a shot try it see what happens
[18:13] <Dr_Willis> tobylane:  I dont reccomend using the alpha at all at this time.
[18:13] <tobylane> and is there an easy way to download the differences between alphas?
[18:13] <tobylane> oh ok
[18:13] <Leoneof`> i've dual boot, Vista and Ubuntu, and now it can't show me boot menu for Vista and Ubuntu.... it is say Grub error , or something like that, how to fix it? :(
[18:13] <neur0tic> any idea why network manager applet wont remember my connection settings ?
[18:13] <Dr_Willis> tobylane:  the questions you are asking.. show you prioberly are not going to be able to handle the probklems that will come with using the 'alpha'
[18:13] <tobylane> hehe ok
[18:13] <indian_munnda> blakkheim, see this is the output of "lshw" http://paste.ubuntu.com/341335/
[18:13] <tobylane> when will shipit reopen to old users
[18:14] <Dr_Willis> I got 9.10 shipit cd's allready :)
[18:14] <Leoneof`> please help :(
[18:14] <Leoneof`> i use live cd now
[18:14] <tobylane> leone you need to edit grub i believe, it's e when you should see grub, ie ~5 seconds into boot
[18:15] <FirstSgt> one of my users is over quota, but his /home only has 300 mb... How can i find all files owned by foobar ?
[18:15] <Dr_Willis> Leoneof`:  you need to check out the various restore-grub/fix grub wiki pages and try to do what they suggest.  give more detailas as to the exact error message also.
[18:15] <q0s> shortly after login my gnome desktop gets freezed. opened windows stay responsive ... but i cannot open new windows or even click on panels. does somebody know whats going on there?
[18:15] <tobylane> and that will let you reboot, or you could edit grub.conf from the livecd
[18:15] <Leoneof`> tobylane,  there's no 5 sec ,nor menu
[18:15] <Dr_Willis> FirstSgt:  the 'find' command can do that with the proper options  i belive
[18:15] <blakkheim> indian_munnda: how old is this computer?
[18:15] <Hiatus> sounds like leoneof did a bad install
[18:15] <FirstSgt> Dr_Willis: Okay, I just though there would be an easier way than grinding my whole 3 TB server for it.
[18:15] <indian_munnda> blakkheim, its around 4 years old
[18:16] <newbiejonrob287> can someone help me install ubunto 9.10 on my computer...im running off a usb drive right now
[18:16] <Leoneof`> Hiatus: i installed Ubuntu since one week >_>
[18:16] <mw> jas72z: ok, will try now. brb.
[18:16] <jas72z> mw ok let me know
[18:16] <neur0tic> can someone please help me out with setting up my ubuntu network ?
[18:16] <blakkheim> indian_munnda: because i'm not seeing anything about PCIe, so you might be stuck with just a regular PCI slot. you aren't going to get anything even remotely powerful for that
[18:16] <Dr_Willis> FirstSgt:  in theory the user can only write to his home, and perhaps /tmp/   unless you got other places  set up. Ive never used quotas so no idwea how they work of if they keep track of stuff in /tmp or not
[18:17] <newbiejonrob287> need help my install keeps messing up
[18:17] <Dr_Willis> neur0tic:  if the problem is 'network manager does not rember your settings' then you should be asking that question.. Not the more broad' can some one help me'   one.
[18:17] <tobylane> newbiejonrob287, we need more information
[18:17] <dheeraj> soundcard not detected in ubuntu 9.10...can anyone help me???
[18:17] <newbiejonrob287> what do you need to know?
[18:17] <tobylane> dheeraj, what is the soundcard called, and have you looked in restricted
[18:17] <FirstSgt> Dr_Willis: I already looked in /tmp.
[18:17] <neur0tic> @Dr_Willis, i did that , did i not ?
[18:17] <indian_munnda> blakkheim, i have install sysinfo too
[18:17] <Dr_Willis> neur0tic:  and then you started asking the more vague question.. which is pointless to ask.
[18:17] <indian_munnda> blakkheim, its also showing some info
[18:18] <blakkheim> indian_munnda: ok, go to file -> save and pastebin that
[18:18] <newbiejonrob287> im stuck at the partition stage in the install
[18:18] <Dr_Willis> neur0tic:  i would suggest checking the forums also. I seem to recall someone else a few weeks back having a similer issue.. but thats all i rember on the topic
[18:18] <FirstSgt> Dr_Willis: im afraid it might have been exploited, but they aren't able to do priv escalation yet.  the owner of the account is an idoit
[18:18] <neur0tic> Dr_Willis, my humble apologies
[18:18] <Dr_Willis> FirstSgt:  Ive never had to deal with  that personally. so not sure what all to check.
[18:19] <Dr_Willis> neur0tic:  is it the wireless not rembering? or the wired network settings also. that would be a good bit of info to include.
[18:19] <jas72z> newbiejonrob287 if you want ubuntu as the only os then choose entire disk
[18:19] <indian_munnda> blakkheim, check this http://paste.ubuntu.com/341343/
[18:19] <newbiejonrob287> i did but it dont work i will run it again and tell you the errors
[18:20] <dheeraj> http://pastebin.com/m3aecb266
[18:20] <neur0tic> Dr_Willis, nothing, everytime i boot up, it shows me 'auto eth' and sometimes, NO network.
[18:20] <dheeraj> soundcard not detected...
[18:20] <jas72z> newbiejonrob287 use live cd if you have it then reformat drive and then try
[18:20] <q0s> shortly after login my gnome desktop gets freezed. opened windows stay responsive ... but i cannot open new windows or even click on panels. does somebody know whats going on there?
[18:21] <neur0tic> Dr_Willis, i always need to do, ifconfig eth3 ... ... up and set up the route add default gw ... ...
[18:21] <newbiejonrob287> i only have the the bootable usb i dont have a cd burner to burn the iso to a cd
[18:21] <Dr_Willis> neur0tic:  last time i had a network be up, then down,  the network cable had been chewed on by the dog.
[18:21] <mickster04> how do i get 5.1 surround sound working plz? i have the appropriate plug holes inbuilt into the mobo...
[18:21] <dheeraj> http://pastebin.com/m504fa574
[18:21] <jas72z> newbiejonrob287 tell me the errors then
[18:22] <neur0tic> Dr_Willis, i always need to do, ifconfig eth3 ... ... up and set up the route add default gw ... ...
[18:22] <Dr_Willis> mickster04:  you got an actual file that has 5.1 sound?
[18:22] <blakkheim> indian_munnda: i'm researching, but also busy, i'll try to find you an answer in a moment
[18:22] <Hilikus> mickster04: http://www.google.ca/url?sa=t&source=web&ct=res&cd=1&ved=0CAcQFjAA&url=https%3A%2F%2Fhelp.ubuntu.com%2Fcommunity%2FSurroundSound&ei=SIImS63dMY-n8Aac1tnQCA&usg=AFQjCNGMwFdX0TvyZ6wz4FkZ3Z5JFIMKSg&sig2=c5ShTbYhqKb3XPRJlir16A
[18:22] <mickster04> file?
[18:22] <neur0tic> Dr_Willis, no its not a prob with the wire
[18:22] <Hiatus> q0s: did you increase the visual effects at all. I know that happens sometimes when people try to run the cube on computers that can't handle it
[18:22] <dheeraj> http://pastebin.com/m504fa574.....please check this msg and help me....
[18:22] <indian_munnda> blakkheim, yup i m waiting....:)
[18:22] <newbiejonrob287> k it is loading the partitioner
[18:22] <mickster04> oh wow
[18:23] <Hilikus> mickster04: i followed that guide, then just go to alsamixer and change the number of channels to 6
[18:23] <mickster04> ive been lookin for that for ages!
[18:23] <Dr_Willis> mickster04:  sort of hard to test 5.1 sound if You dont have any thing that actually uses 5.1 surround sound.
[18:23] <FirstSgt> Dr_Willis: well, it will take a while but i did find / -user foobar
[18:23] <q0s> Hiatus, i didn't change anything, execpt installing the regular updates. but my computer runs compiz fine for years, so i guess thats not the problem.
[18:23] <FirstSgt> oh, and sent stdout to file in /tmp
[18:23] <blakkheim> indian_munnda: you've got integrated graphics, and since i really am not seeing anything about PCIe i would say you probably aren't going to be doing any graphics upgrades on that board
[18:23] <Hilikus> Dr_Willis: there's a builtin test for 5.1
[18:23] <thevishy> what is the feature that defines the color of text when you highlight it ? it looks ugly blue in browser
[18:23] <mickster04> Dr_Willis, well music should come out of all no?
[18:23] <Dr_Willis> mickster04:  No.
[18:23] <Hilikus> mickster04: i depends on your player
[18:24] <Hilikus> i think amarok does not
[18:24] <mickster04> dr
[18:24] <Dr_Willis> mickster04:  its stero = 2 channels.. well 2.1 proberly
[18:24] <indian_munnda> blakkheim, you mean i can't use any graphics card on this board??
[18:24] <mickster04> Dr_Willis, Hilikus i dont suppose i could change that....
[18:24] <Dr_Willis> mickster04:  there are some players taht  have 'filters/plugins' to upconvert stero tio 5.1
[18:24] <mickster04> koool
[18:24] <TopKatz> after you update a systems headers, if I rebuild a driver, and make install it, before I have rebooted the system.  Will the driver be built agains the new headers?
[18:24] <blakkheim> indian_munnda: i mean that any graphics card you could buy for a regular PCI slot (not AGP or PCIe) isn't going to be any good
[18:24] <Hilikus> mickster04: i read i a guide that you could but it must have been for an older version, cause i didn't work in the latest
[18:24] <dheeraj> any one good in sound problems???
[18:24] <Dr_Willis> mickster04:  or on my old systmes/mixer contriolls i could just mirror the front to the rear. in some players
[18:25] <mickster04> Dr_Willis, that would be gr8.....
[18:25] <Hilikus> mickster04: just follow the guide i sent you, there's a channel by channel test in there
[18:25] <Hilikus> and then deal with making the player replicate the channels
[18:25] <indian_munnda> blakkheim, u mean i can use the PCI slot graphics card?
[18:25] <robfusion> does anyone know how to configure firestarter to not block internal lan traffic my slingbox is not working
[18:26] <darkweasel> dheeraj: just ask your question, if someone can help you with your sound problem, they'll answer
[18:26] <Hilikus> anyone here uses FLAC?
[18:26] <blakkheim> indian_munnda: you have integrated graphics already. they are not very powerful and neither is any dedicated graphics card you could buy for that board.
[18:26] <blakkheim> indian_munnda: it's basically too old and wasn't designed to be upgraded very much
[18:27] <indian_munnda> blakkheim, so finally i can't upgrade my graphics performaces
[18:27] <dheeraj> sound card module cannot be loaded to kernel....any one help...
[18:27] <blakkheim> indian_munnda: you could get a very old PCI graphics card but it wouldn't give you hardly any boost in performance. you'd need a whole new motherboard to use any serious gpu.
[18:27] <tobylane> dheeraj, have you got anything from restricted, like a driver?
[18:27] <neur0tic> is posting links allowed here ?
[18:28] <erUSUL> neur0tic: no
[18:28] <indian_munnda> blakkheim, shall i buy azsus motherboard?
[18:28] <dheeraj> no..i tried to load only from ALSA
[18:28] <blakkheim> indian_munnda: asus is a good company to get motherboards from. but this is if you're comfortable building a whole new computer by yourself.
[18:28] <tobylane> thats not a driver, just a cover i think
[18:28] <neur0tic> erUSUL: then how do  i show u my screenshots/
[18:29] <tobylane> search in synaptic or google/manufacturer website
[18:29] <blakkheim> indian_munnda: if you've never built a computer you might be better off just buying a more powerful prebuilt one
[18:29] <dheeraj> it has the driver for my soundcard but iam not able to load it to the kernel...
[18:29] <indian_munnda> blakkheim, but other devices can be same and be used with the new motherboard?
[18:29] <blakkheim> indian_munnda: not all of them. your cpu would probably have to be replaced since it's an older socket
[18:29] <erUSUL> neur0tic: pasting and screenshots to show problems are allowed
[18:30] <indian_munnda> blakkheim, i can assemble a PC but i need a little guidance
[18:30] <erUSUL> !paste
[18:30] <dheeraj> tobylane:ok..i will try....
[18:30] <neur0tic> erUSUL, i didnt upload them to imagebin, but to imageshack
[18:30] <indian_munnda> blakkheim, u mean the cabinet?
[18:30] <erUSUL> neur0tic: it is the same. you can post the url.
[18:31] <neur0tic> erUSUL, thanks
[18:31] <blakkheim> indian_munnda: the processor.

[18:31] <indian_munnda> blakkheim, oh so i can't use p4 with azsus?
[18:32] <Iceman1> hey everyone
[18:32] <arghh2d2> indian_munnda: your better off buying a motherboard with a cpu already seated
[18:32] <Iceman1> i have a problem
[18:32] <indian_munnda> arghh2d2, ok thanks man
[18:32] <blakkheim> indian_munnda: your pentium4 is socket 478, that doesn't support PCIe. you want a PCIe slot on the board if you want a fast video card.
[18:32] <Iceman1> when i try to update my repository,it says "could not download all repository indexes"
[18:33] <blakkheim> indian_munnda: so you want either socket 775,1156 or 1366 - depending on how much power you need
[18:33] <Iceman1> thats the message i get
[18:33] <erUSUL> !paste | Iceman1
[18:33] <indian_munnda> blakkheim, ohh anyways thanks man u gave me much of your precious time. Thanks again. Its gonna be a big expenditure this time....:)
[18:33] <Iceman1> what should i paste
[18:33] <blakkheim> indian_munnda: no prob
[18:33] <Iceman1> how do i paste erUSUL
[18:34] <indian_munnda> blakkheim, bbye and good night..:)
[18:34] <erUSUL> Iceman1: you should paste the error you get.
[18:34] <erUSUL> Iceman1: but most likely your mirror is having problems. you can try to change the mirror you use
[18:34] <Iceman1> erUSUL the error i get is a error window from update manager
[18:34] <erUSUL> Iceman1: System>dmin>Software Soureces first tab
[18:34] <Iceman1> erUSUL but it used to work
[18:34] <resno> does using squid for proxy and site caching make an noticeable difference in speed?
[18:35] <q0s> Hiatus, i didn't change anything, execpt installing the regular updates. but my computer runs compiz fine for years, so i guess thats not the problem.
[18:35] <tobylane> not first time, maybe a bit later on
[18:35] <mw> jas72z: ok, i tried multiple channels. i cannot even connect to channels lower then 6 and channel 13 (german wireless channels btw, is that a problem?). i can connect to the other channels, channel 12 seems to be the best - it dies after about 10 mb of data. is there a way to tell the bc43 module that i use german wireles channels? is that a problem anyway?
[18:36] <_USUrPeR_> hey all.
[18:36] <hlfshell> so I use my wacom tablet on my ubuntu laptop, but when i go dual screen, the wacom tablet area becomes shared amongst the two screens - making it much harder to write on it. does anyone know a fix to force it to the screen in focus?
[18:36] <Iceman1> erUSUL ubuntu software or other software
[18:37] <roberthl> Hello, When running the nonfree flash plugin on Ubuntu 9.10 with firefox, after an hour so of running firefox no more flash objects load and just appear white. Does anyone know how to fix this issue?
[18:37] <_USUrPeR_> Can anybody point me towards how to use an xorg.conf in 9.10?
[18:37] <_USUrPeR_> Yes, it's a horrible digression, but it's required for myself...
[18:37] <tobylane> firefox is shit, please dont use it, everyone. Opera ftw. And sorry, I'll want to come back
[18:37] <_USUrPeR_> haha oh wow.
[18:38] <Thylith> :P
[18:38] <_USUrPeR_> what did I just walk in to? :)
[18:38] <Thylith> hehe
[18:38] <gehzumteufel> I can't get my wmp300n wifi adapter to detect any networks. Anyone have any ideas?
[18:38] <gehzumteufel> The card is installed, driver loaded, all configured, etc., but nothing seems to help
[18:38] <erUSUL> Iceman1: in the first tab --> Download from: and choose another location
[18:39] <gehzumteufel> no scan results with iwlist
[18:39] <Thylith> could anyone hint me in the right direction of which version i should download and install for my laptop? it's an Intel Core 2 Duo proc, so should it be the "Intel x86"-version?
[18:39] <mickster04> geh
[18:39] <mickster04> gehzumteufel, i don't suppose u have another device there that can detect wireless?
[18:40] <erUSUL> Thylith: both 32 bit (Intel x86) and 64 bit (amd64) will work in your hardware
[18:40] <gehzumteufel> mickster04: I was working on this last week. I had 2 other machines that were totally different machines (macbook pro and a windows machine) that detected and hopped on no big deal
[18:40] <Thylith> erUSUL, hmm, and for a not so ubuntu-used user, is there any recommendation?
[18:40] <resno> does using squid for proxy and site caching make an noticeable difference in speed?
[18:40] <arghh2d2> Thylith: depends on how if you have any hardware thats only supported in 9.10, otherwise i'd use 9.04 if i wer you
[18:40] <Iceman1> erUSUL it says it could not resolve my old proxy server
[18:41] <Thylith> arghh2d2, yeah, i'm going for 9.04, just didn't know intel x86 or amd64 version
[18:41] <erUSUL> Iceman1: so is a proxy problem ? do firefox work ?
[18:41] <Iceman1> its my old proxy server,how do i change it,ive moved isps

[18:44] <Hilikus> does anyone know the compression rate of FLAC vs ogg q6 ?
[18:44] <erUSUL> neur0tic: ubuntu uses launchpad.net
[18:45] <joaopinto> sburwood, what do you mean by along side ? a different partition ?
[18:45] <jMyles> Is there a way to synchronize music / audio between different computers on the same LAN?
[18:45] <dethaddr> hey room.
[18:45] <sburwood> yes
[18:45] <erUSUL> Hilikus: flac is lossless so it is much higher
[18:45] <mw> jas72z: ok, i tried multiple channels. i cannot even connect to channels lower then 6 and channel 13 (german wireless channels btw, is that a problem?). i can connect to the other channels, channel 12 seems to be the best - it dies after about 10 mb of data. is there a way to tell the bc43 module that i use german wireles channels? is that a problem anyway?
[18:45] <Hilikus> erUSUL: i know, i need to know how much higher
[18:45] <neur0tic> erUSUL , ubuntu uses launchpad? and what exactly is that supposed to mean?
[18:45] <lukaszT1> I have no sound coming from exaile and my version is Ubuntu Karmic 9.10
[18:45] <sburwood> joaopinto yes
[18:45] <thevishy> has anyone tried xubuntu on ubuntu ?
[18:45] <thevishy> i mean xubuntu-desktop
[18:46] <gehzumteufel> Hilikus: It vaires
[18:46] <erUSUL> neur0tic: it does not use bugzilla for bug tracking
