[07:48] <Stormx2> Trixsey: Ubuntu has a strict set of rules for what packages get though. Packaging GAIM in a reliable and bugfree state is tricky, they can't just scrap that process the moment a new version comes out a day before an ubuntu release.
[07:48] <Trixsey> GAIM is buggy for me
[07:48] <emilia> does anyone know if i can go full screen in vmware in just one desktop? so it doesnt take precedence over my other 4 desktops?
[07:48] <Trixsey> so is Azureus
[07:48] <EBAR> Does anyone know if Broadcom chips will be supported by Fiesty Fawn?
[07:48] <Ash-Fox> Is there some sort of command I can use to tell X to listen on a ethernet card -- without having to restart X?
[07:48] <Trixsey> even installed through synaptic
[07:48] <Stormx2> Trixsey: So get a new version?
[07:48] <viller> furestrtr: yes it is
[07:48] <fyrestrtr> Ash-Fox: you'll have to restart X either way.
[07:49] <fyrestrtr> Ash-Fox: unless you start a new instance of X on another console :)
[07:49] <Trixsey> so I didn't see why they have rules that strict applying to software that obviously needs more development :P
[07:49] <Ash-Fox> fyrestrtr, blah :/
[07:49] <Trixsey> heck those are barely stable releases :p
[07:49] <fyrestrtr> viller: sudo /etc/init.d/mysql restart should start it up for you.
[07:49] <Stormx2> Trixsey: GAIM was stable & very bug free in dapper. If you wanted complete bug-free hand holding stay with dapper.
[07:50] <eternal_p> good afternoon all...can anyone help me....my PCMCIA BT adaptor is only being detected as a serial device....so I cannot scan with it @ all
[07:50] <Stormx2> Trixsey: Otherwise upgrade. Like I said.
[07:50] <Stormx2> Twice.
[07:50] <indianajones> how can i install a software?
[07:50] <EBAR> I'm running gaim 2.0 beta5 in dapper without any problems at all.
[07:50] <Stormx2> !synaptic | indianajones
[07:50] <ubotu> indianajones: synaptic is Ubuntu's Graphical Package Manager. For a good howto see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SynapticHowto
[07:50] <eternal_p> is gaim 2.0 bette than Kopete?
[07:50] <M0E^lnx> anyone please!
[07:50] <M0E^lnx> help!
[07:50] <indianajones> ok thx
[07:50] <Stormx2> EBAR: Yeah I did too
[07:50] <Stormx2> eternal_p: POV, but I prefer GAIM
[07:51] <Stormx2> M0E^lnx: Whats the issue?
[07:51] <M0E^lnx> ndiswrapper
[07:51] <eternal_p> what about webcam support, etc. which I remember gaim 1.x was lacking
[07:51] <fyrestrtr> eternal_p: still is lacking, afaik
[07:51] <Stormx2> VV (video & voice) is still not merged into gaim
[07:51] <Stormx2> amsn can do it.
[07:51] <M0E^lnx> Stormx2 I'm following this howto http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=197102&highlight=install+ndiswrapper but it's not working for me...
[07:51] <Stormx2> so can gaim-vv, which I understand to be a fork of GAIM
[07:51] <Stormx2> M0E^lnx: What part is failing, and what error?
[07:52] <fyrestrtr> I heard that they were merging it sometime.....
[07:52] <Journeyman> what would be the best way to reinstall gnome?
[07:52] <eternal_p> i'll stay with Kopete for now I guess
[07:52] <eternal_p> any ideas on my BT problem?
[07:52] <Journeyman> apt-get remove gnome && apt-get install gnome?
[07:52] <M0E^lnx> Stormx2 no failing error just gets stuck while running the script..
[07:52] <shwag> how do I remove a public key from an apt repository ?
[07:52] <Stormx2> M0E^lnx: Eek. Well I don't know then
[07:52] <Stormx2> eternal_p: Sorry, no idea. Maybe ubuntuforums.org can help?
[07:52] <Journeyman> shwag, man gpg
[07:53] <eternal_p> didn't get any response
[07:53] <Stormx2> Journeyman: Whats the problem with it?
[07:53] <loka> hola!!!
[07:53] <eternal_p> it is the only thing that doesn't work with Ubuntu for me....(other than fighting with WPA :) )
[07:53] <shwag> Journeyman: thanks
[07:53] <Journeyman> Stormx2, the progress bar doesn't work in certain themes
[07:53] <Stormx2> Journeyman: I think gnome is probably a transitional package.....
[07:53] <M0E^lnx> is there any way to browse the repos with a browser, grab a few packages and install them manually?
[07:53] <loka> k os den
[07:53] <Stormx2> Journeyman: Do the themes require a specific GTK2 engine?
[07:53] <Stormx2> Journeyman: That may be the issue
[07:53] <LjL> Stormx2: yeah, it depends on KDE, it's being phased out
[07:53] <LjL> (sorry)
[07:54] <Journeyman> Stormx2, the default theme is one with the problem
[07:54] <LjL> !es | loka
[07:54] <ubotu> loka: Para Espaol por favor usen #ubuntu-es, #kubuntu-es o #edubuntu-es, all obtendrn mas ayuda.
[07:54] <fyrestrtr> M0E^lnx: manually how?
[07:54] <fyrestrtr> M0E^lnx: the only manually way I know is to compile from source.
[07:54] <Journeyman> I downloaded a couple others to test it
[07:54] <Journeyman> some work, but most don't
[07:54] <M0E^lnx> you can't install .debs manually?
[07:54] <Stormx2> Journeyman: Eek. Well maybe remove x? I'm not sure...
[07:54] <Stormx2> M0E^lnx: You can.
[07:54] <shwag> Journeyman: isnt there more since it uses apt-key ?
[07:54] <LjL> M0E^lnx: yup
[07:54] <fyrestrtr> M0E^lnx: sure, with dpkg
[07:54] <Journeyman> storm well I think the problem is just with gnome not X
[07:54] <LjL> !deb | M0E^lnx
[07:54] <ubotu> M0E^lnx: deb is the Debian package format, also used by Ubuntu. To install .deb files, simply double-click on them (Ubuntu) or right-click and select Kubuntu Package Menu->install (Kubuntu)
[07:54] <M0E^lnx> can someone just get me an address for an edgy repo?
[07:54] <fyrestrtr> M0E^lnx: but that's not manually for me :)
[07:54] <Journeyman> this is why I was looking at reinstalling it
[07:55] <Stormx2> M0E^lnx: Theres a graphic app for it in edgy, and also sudo dpkg -i blaa.deb
[07:55] <Journeyman> shouldn't be a problem
[07:55] <Stormx2> Be back in 20 minutes
[07:55] <fyrestrtr> are you running dapper or edgy?
[07:55] <M0E^lnx> edgy
[07:55] <fyrestrtr> M0E^lnx: what's the problem with your sources list?
[07:56] <fyrestrtr> !easysource | M0E^lnx
[07:56] <ubotu> M0E^lnx: source-o-matic is a webpage where you can (re)generate your sources.list - http://www.ubuntu-nl.org/source-o-matic.  It does not currently support Edgy sources.  When asked if it will, the reply was "maybe".
[07:56] <M0E^lnx> nothing... but I have no internet access
[07:56] <fyrestrtr> oh whoops.
[07:56] <M0E^lnx> I'm trying to set it up
[07:56] <blackflare> alsa keeps making me hungry
[07:56] <M0E^lnx> so I'm gonna try grabbing the packages, put them into a pendrive, and install from there
[07:56] <blackflare> it looks like salsa
[07:57] <citriz> could someone help me with frostwire?
[07:57] <eternal_p> does anyone know of a scrolling RSS news ticker for the gnome desktop?
[07:57] <fyrestrtr> M0E^lnx: deb http://[country-code] .archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ edgy main restricted universe multiverse
[07:58] <fyrestrtr> citriz: try asking your real question ;)
[07:58] <tonyyarusso> eternal_p: I don't know if it's a ticker or what, but an apt search suggested straw might?
[07:58] <tonyyarusso> eternal_p: also, gnome-fifth-toe
[07:59] <L0cKd0wN> When I run an instance of vncserver from the command line, I can login from my Windows machine (using VNC Viewer), but all I get is a blank screen with an 'X' mouse cursor (I'm presuming this is a blank X Windows screen).
[07:59] <L0cKd0wN> how do i login to gnome?
[07:59] <eternal_p> thank you, i'll take a look
[07:59] <M0E^lnx> but that only has packages.gz
[07:59] <M0E^lnx> no individual packages
[07:59] <fyrestrtr> L0cKd0wN: have you started a session?
[08:00] <L0cKd0wN> don't think so, how might i go about doing that
[08:00] <fyrestrtr> M0E^lnx: just browse it online?
[08:00] <M0E^lnx> yes
[08:00] <L0cKd0wN> the computer has no monitor
[08:00] <L0cKd0wN> so i have to do everything, via terminal
[08:00] <M0E^lnx> fyrestrtr yes... I need to just browse it online
[08:01] <eternal_p> tonyyarusso  : any idea where I can download fifth-toe?
[08:01] <BjoeHrn> does anyone can help me with my audigy 2zs? I made a dist-upgrade and my sound don't work anymore
[08:01] <eternal_p> forget it, I found it :)
[08:01] <fyrestrtr> L0cKd0wN: have a read through https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VNC ?
[08:01] <tonyyarusso> eternal_p: It's in the repos
[08:03] <citriz> fyrestrtr, i've tried. noone will help.
[08:03] <eternal_p> thats odd...it is telling me tht I need the gnome-desktop-enviroment and gnome-core...but I am running gnome, am I missing something?
[08:03] <citriz> i cannot get the GUI to show up on frostwire. i have java installed, the latest even. and when i start up frostwire, it doesnt show anything. just an empty box.
[08:04] <eternal_p> its ok..damm typos... :)
[08:05] <fyrestrtr> citriz: did you make sure you have sun java installed and that its the default jre?
[08:05] <citriz> fyrestrtr, no i havent
[08:05] <citriz> do i go to the java website? or how should i go about this?
[08:05] <fyrestrtr> citriz: sudo update-alternatives --config java
[08:05] <fyrestrtr> !java | citriz
[08:05] <ubotu> citriz: To install a Java compiler/interpreter on Ubuntu, look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Java - For the Sun Java runtime install sun-java5-jre from the !Multiverse repository
[08:06] <citriz> There is only 1 program which provides java
[08:06] <citriz> (/usr/lib/jvm/java-1.5.0-sun/jre/bin/java). Nothing to configure.
[08:06] <M0E^lnx> dang this sux
[08:06] <james__> Hi guys, there are about 10 computers on my network, i can access and ping all of them except for 1 stubborn desktop... when i ping it it says destination host unreachable. How can I troubleshoot this? Between my laptop and this desktop they cant communicate with each other.. it has me puzzled
[08:06] <citriz> sun-java5-jre is already the newest version.
[08:07] <fyrestrtr> citriz: post a screenshot of what you see when you start frostwire
[08:07] <citriz> ok hold on
[08:08] <fyrestrtr> james__: perhaps there is a firewall running on that box that is blocking ICMP?
[08:09] <eternal_p> where in fifth-toe is an RSS news ticker?
[08:09] <tonyyarusso> eternal_p: I'm not sure - it was just in the apt-cache show info
[08:09] <shwag> do i need to have an gpg keys to access the main ubuntu repositories ?
[08:09] <eternal_p> ah,
[08:09] <citriz> where's a good place to host a screenshot?
[08:09] <m6s> In #mono noone answers or seems to be alive
[08:09] <tonyyarusso> shwag: No.  The ones the repos are signed with are installed by default, and you do not need your own
[08:09] <m6s> where can I ask something about Mono???
[08:10] <shwag> tonyyarusso: but i was playing with apt-key and decided to delete all the keys I had.
[08:10] <citriz> nevermind
[08:10] <james__> the desktop hasnt been touched and worked fine a week or so ago, it mainly sits in the corner as a file server and pvr. Im thinking it has to do with my new router/wireless setup at the laptop end but im not sure of ways to test if this is true.
[08:10] <tonyyarusso> shwag: Ah, eww.  Well, check !repos and see if it has them listed on it's link
[08:10] <shwag> !repos
[08:10] <ubotu> The packages in Ubuntu are divided into several sections. More information at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Repositories and http://www.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/components - See also !EasySource

[08:11] <Skaag> printing question - my printer prints the pages but they collect in reverse order, anyway to work around this? :-)
[08:12] <shwag> tonyyarusso: well, i guess this machine wont be receiving any more updates.
[08:12] <tonyyarusso> shwag: I know the keys are available - I'm just not sure where offhand unfortunately
[08:12] <shwag> tonyyarusso: yah, i cant find em
[08:12] <tonyyarusso> :(
[08:13] <\pub\bash0r> since I switched to Edgy, "dpkg-reconfigure locales" does no longer show a menu to select charsets ... how can I achieve this now?
[08:13] <tonyyarusso> shwag: Maybe you could search a keyserver for them.
[08:13] <fyrestrtr> citriz: suggest you try it with metacity (ie, beryl disabled)
[08:13] <alex-weej> \pub\bash0r: System -> Administration -> Language Support
[08:13] <shwag> tonyyarusso: is it sitting in the repository itself?  http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/edgy/Release.gpg
[08:13] <tonyyarusso> shwag: Quite possible.  Looks promising.
[08:14] <M0E^ln1> hey guys... Now i'm getting this error from apt-get "Timestamp too far in the future"
[08:14] <escargot> Hello! Could someone help me with a problem I'm having creating plots in R under Edgy?
[08:14] <\pub\bash0r> alex-weej: doesn't that only affect gnome? (and does that also build missing charsets? because I thought they need to be generated first)
[08:14] <b03nto> !gcc
[08:14] <M0E^ln1> someone please help me
[08:14] <ubotu> Compiling software from source? Read the tips at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CompilingSoftware (But remember to search for pre-built !packages first: not all !repositories are enabled by default!)
[08:14] <matthew_w> Is there a way to use nohup so that it does not make a log file?
[08:14] <fyrestrtr> M0E^ln1: clock skew? Check your timezone.
[08:15] <M0E^ln1> the clock is right
[08:15] <fyrestrtr> b03nto: sudo apt-get install build-essential
[08:15] <alex-weej> \pub\bash0r: no. and it builds your locales. it installs the i18n packages for you.
[08:15] <LeavingWindows> Hey! Anyone here who could help me with my non booting Ubuntu install-CD?
[08:15] <cyris|> hey, im trying to install build-essential, but im getting these errors.  build-essential: Depends: libc6-dev but it is not going to be installed or
[08:15] <cyris|>                             libc-dev
[08:15] <cyris|>                    Depends: g++ (>= 4:4.0) but it is not going to be installed
[08:15] <cyris|> anyone with ideas?
[08:15] <shwag> LeavingWindows: sounds like you burned it wrong
[08:15] <\pub\bash0r> alex-weej: ah ok, I just thought I've never seen ISO8859-1 there ... but I will take another look, thanks :)
[08:15] <bjorne> is there going to be a 64 plugins for firefox
[08:15] <b03nto> fyrestrtr, i know, what gcc version edgy use ? currently im still with dapper..
[08:15] <fyrestrtr> cyris|: edgy or dapper?
[08:16] <shwag> cyris|: yah yah,..i was thinking, a map...wher you...get this...JUMP...to conclusions.
[08:16] <LeavingWindows> shwag: it boots on another PC, but it wont boot on mine... Hirens boot CD boots just fine... :P
[08:16] <fyrestrtr> b03nto: 4.1.2
[08:16] <alex-weej> \pub\bash0r: i don't even know if that locale variant is bundled with anything anymore. everything seems to be UTF-8 now.
[08:16] <shwag> LeavingWindows: bios turn on boot order CD
[08:16] <b03nto> thanks.. i think im on my way to edgy now :)
[08:16] <\pub\bash0r> alex-weej: that would be problematic, as latex doesn't handle utf8 correctly in my case
[08:16] <\pub\bash0r> at least it kills portability to windows
[08:17] <LeavingWindows> shwag: CD is in first boot priority... it boots on another PC but not on mine!
[08:17] <flitzekacke> moin
[08:17] <\pub\bash0r> oh and I can't access my samba shares then -.-
[08:17] <sheriff> which UML modelling tool would you recommend?
[08:17] <shwag> LeavingWindows: maybe you burner cant read that media.  Burn the cd from a different computer.
[08:17] <LeavingWindows> shwag: other CDs boot but not the Ubuntu installer! (But the ubuntu installer works on other PCs...)
[08:17] <shwag> LeavingWindows: yup..burn it from a different computer.
[08:18] <shwag> LeavingWindows: or try burning it at a slower rate
[08:18] <shwag> LeavingWindows: but probably from a different computer will work.
[08:18] <LeavingWindows> shwag: I can read the CD fine from windows... it seems like it wont read the boot sector or something...
[08:18] <shwag> LeavingWindows: ive had burners that start going out and they still work but...no longer make bootable cds.
[08:18] <gustavsson> hi, can anyone tell me why my /dev/sda* has dissapeared?

[08:19] <LeavingWindows> shwag: OK, but can I make a small partition on the HD, copy  the installer CD contents to it and boot from there?
[08:19] <pike_> gustavsson: "ls -t /dev | grep head" maybe its sdb or c

[08:20] <shwag> LeavingWindows: how about...boot off a knoppix cd....and then launch the ubuntu installer from inside of knoppix maybe.
[08:20] <Afflictin> hello all
[08:20] <tonyyarusso> Hi Afflictin
[08:20] <gustavsson> pike_: why should it hve changed? it have worked for months.

[08:21] <tonyyarusso> Afflictin: Can you be more specific?
[08:21] <Tyfius> anyone knows how I can install chkconfig on ubuntu ?
[08:21] <\lart> Afflictin: Um, use it?  You'll have to narrow that down, like a lot.
[08:21] <Tyfius> or at least emulate it, so I can install maya
[08:21] <shwag> tonyyarusso: i know...i will copy the keys off another ubuntu machine.
[08:21] <tonyyarusso> shwag: Good idea
[08:21] <Afflictin> are there any specific tasks that I can give it to do, should I make it a server, what should I do with it
[08:22] <tonyyarusso> Afflictin: Whatever you want.  I have a laptop with a general workstation setup as well as a small server.  It's flexible to whatever you need.
[08:22] <\lart> Afflictin: what do you want it to do?

[08:27] <ubotu> kernel is the core of the Ubuntu Operating System (named 'Linux') - see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Kernel.  You shouldn't have to compile one, but if you're convinced you do, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelCustomBuild
[08:27] <iverianu> I can't change the defolt language... can u tell me why :(

[08:32] <Journeyman> I am trying to use vnc, but anytime I try to run any X programs it locks up
[08:33] <Journeyman> gnome wouldn't start, nor would fluxbox, so I removed all window managers and just have it start up xterm
[08:33] <Journeyman> I try to run anything and it locks up
[08:33] <Journeyman> any idea/
[08:33] <MasterLexx> why is there different software for xubuntu than for kubuntu? why is there no amule for download in kubuntu?
[08:33] <pike_> rm -fr ~/.vnc then retry maybe
[08:34] <Journeyman> pike_, why would I want to do that, all my .vnc options are things I set up, it is worse off without that
[08:34] <Journeyman> all I get with default is the gnome startup screen locked up
[08:35] <pike_> and exec fluxbox freezes as well?
[08:35] <Journeyman> yeah
[08:35] <Journeyman> let me give you a screenshot
[08:35] <genesis> thx for the skype tipp, it worked ^^
[08:37] <M0E^lnx> Alright!... I got wireless
[08:37] <Journeyman> pike_, http://digitalparanoid.com/~matt/vnc.jpg
[08:37] <Journeyman> that is what happens when I type startfluxbox in the xterm
[08:38] <jshadias> journeyman, that link doesn't work
[08:38] <pike_> Journeyman: could you veryify url i cant access "/~matt/vnc.jpg was not found on this server"
[08:38] <Journeyman> hold on
[08:39] <Journeyman> http://digitalparanoid.com/~matt/vnc.JPG

[08:40] <chuchiperriman> someone are working on anjuta project??
[08:40] <nalioth> dunno what's up with your client, but our procedure is to do what we do gdb
[08:40] <hkais> hello
[08:40] <gdb> I understand that, I just figured by now there'd be some note that says, 'whatever happens, he's fine, leave him alone." or whatever.  I idle here 24/7.  I'm sure my connection drops from time to time as my cable modem is't 100 5reliable.
[08:41] <gdb> isn't*
[08:41] <hkais> how can i set /sys/bus/scsi/drivers/sd/0:0:0:0/block/queue/read_ahead_kb=16384 via sysctl?
[08:41] <gdb> er 100% reliable
[08:41] <Journeyman> how do you pipe all the output errors to a file
[08:41] <Chaosphilipp> upgrading to 6.10 doesn't work, it's unable to fetch the packages it needs :'-(
[08:42] <Journeyman> command > file 0&1 or somthing
[08:42] <jpiccolo> would anyone know why gentoo can find my network card but, unbuntu and fedora cant?
[08:42] <njero> Hi all, I am trying to install edgy eft and am letting it repartition the drive... it is a 75G partition and it has been working for a half hour.. how scared should I ne?
[08:42] <corecode> hey
[08:42] <njero> s/ne/be/
[08:42] <corecode> how would i change the default for rtsp:// urls in firefox?
[08:43] <corecode> it tries to launch totem, but that doesn't work somehow
[08:43] <Chaosphilipp> @njero: depends on what was on the partition before...
[08:43] <njero> lots of really good stuff.. like pictures and stuff...
[08:44] <njero> Chaosphilipp: can I stop the process... or will I completely hose it then
[08:44] <Chaosphilipp> hmmmm....do you see WHAT it does?
[08:45] <Chaosphilipp> i'm not a pro, so i would unlikely be the one who killed all your good stuff
[08:45] <njero> Chaosphilipp: it is just sitting there... cursor still active... when I go over the install window it is the spinning timer cursor
[08:45] <Journeyman> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/36678/ is the out put from startfluxbox in vnc
[08:46] <scotticus> i installed edgy without many problems, but i have found that my sound comes out of both my headphones and my speakers, and when i plug in my headphones, it doesn't shut off the speakers.  its the (ICH7 Family) High Definition Audio Controller (rev 01)
[08:46] <pike_> Journeyman: shouldnt get all those errors when starting the server.  maybe ls -alR ~/ | grep root   and see if root owns any of the .x config files or something
[08:46] <scotticus> i kinda need the headphones to just work, since my coworkers are driving me slowly insane.
[08:46] <scotticus> haha
[08:46] <M0E^lnx> is this line right? wget<EMAIL_ADDRESS>-O- | sudo apt-key add -
[08:46] <Chaosphilipp> but there's no status message growing slowly but steadily?
[08:47] <njero> Chaosphilipp: nothing like that...
[08:47] <Chaosphilipp> status bar was the word i was searching for.....ehere do you come from?
[08:47] <Chaosphilipp> ehre = where
[08:47] <njero> :)
[08:47] <njero> US/ near Los Angeles
[08:48] <njero> The install also crashed when I tried to set the time...
[08:48] <Chaosphilipp> kk, then were supposed to stay speaking english ^^
[08:48] <Chaosphilipp> what means crashed...did it begin to do something?
[08:48] <Chaosphilipp> did you hear your harddisks try to do something?
[08:48] <corecode> somewhere this must be configured...  where is this rtsp default for totem?
[08:49] <Journeyman> pike_, I fixed the files with chown, but I am still getting the error
[08:49] <njero> Chaosphilipp: the time thing completely locked the screen... I had to hard boot the machine to get out of the lock up... no messages. Nothing has happened since I clicked "Forward" except that the "Forward" and "Backward" buttons disabled. I hear no hard drive sounds or see any other indication that it has done anything
[08:50] <pike_> Journeyman: hmm maybe vncserver -kill :1; vncserver :1 and retry
[08:50] <ahaller> hi. does anyone know how i can map the APPLE-Key on my Mac to act as the CTRL-Key?
[08:50] <Journeyman> pike_, yeah I did, no fix
[08:50] <Journeyman> I wounder if my problem is in xauth:  error in locking authority file /home/matt/.Xauthority
[08:51] <Chaosphilipp> when did you click foreward, if the timme screen completely locked the screen?
[08:51] <finalbeta> I installed Netbeans 5.0 + java SDK 5 through a .bin file. Now I don't know how to properly remove it all. anyone?
[08:51] <njero> Chaosphilipp: I can move the window around.... but cancel doesn't work...
[08:51] <pike_> Journeyman: using sudo for gui apps can often screw that file up id just rm it and retry
[08:51] <LjL> gdb, it's hard to distinguish an exploit victim from someone whose connection simply drops, if it happens while an exploit is occurring... that might be the reason you ended up in -read-topic
[08:51] <Journeyman> pike_, I am not using sudo
[08:52] <Journeyman> I am running vncserver as user
[08:52] <Journeyman> and running fluxbox as a user
[08:52] <Journeyman> pike_, and what are you suggesting I rm?
[08:52] <cyris||> sorry for this repost, but i dc'd. im trying to install the build-essential package but im getting the following errors. The following packages have unmet dependencies:

[08:53] <MasterLexx> why is there also a kubuntu and xubunti channel? would't they all fit in one?
[08:54] <Chaosphilipp> so you didn't tell the installer to do anything bad to your partition?

[08:56] <DamianFinol> Greetings, I installed enigmail with thunderbird through aptitude, singing works fine and everything, but everytime I open an email that's signed or encrypted, I get this message: gpg command line and output:,/usr/bin/gpg --charset utf8  --batch --no-tty --no-auto-check-trustdb --status-fd 2 --keyserver-options auto-key-retrieve --keyserver random.sks.keyserver.penguin.de, subkeys.pgp.net, pgp.mit.edu, ldap://certserver.pgp.com -d,usage: gp
[08:56] <DamianFinol> g [options]  [filename]    Instead of the usual prompt to download the key from a keyserver
[08:56] <DamianFinol> Any ideas?
[08:56] <JacquelineG> Chaosphilipp: im not quite understanding.  are you implying it is more or less reliable?
[08:57] <scotticus> is there any way in the configs to separate headphone jack and speakers?
[08:57] <jshadias> i think he's saying that the 32-bit version won't work
[08:57] <pike_> scotticus: alsaconfig  maybe see ubuntuforums.org for details
[08:57] <JacquelineG> jshadias: thats a mobo thing i would think
[08:58] <JacquelineG> jshadias: sorry that was for scotticus
[08:58] <Chaosphilipp> @jacqueline: i don't know, but i cant imagine anyone creating a 64-bit version if nobody needs it...
[08:58] <Otacon22> hi all, I have a repository that i must change but don't work: it is
[08:58] <Otacon22> deb http://gandalfn.club.fr/ubuntu/ edgy stable
[08:58] <Otacon22> i must use it
[08:58] <Otacon22> but with dapper
[08:58] <Otacon22> and deb http://gandalfn.club.fr/ubuntu/ dapper stable
[08:58] <Otacon22> don't work
[08:58] <njero> Chaosphilipp: it lived!
[08:58] <Otacon22> anyone know why?
[08:59] <njero> now, am I brave enough to try again...
[08:59] <njero> Thanks
[08:59] <jshadias> jacqueline, i think that you will need 64-bit drivers, and the 32-bit ubuntu won't have those
[08:59] <Chaosphilipp> that's great
[08:59] <edd_> ne1 know how to get sound working on flash 9?
[08:59] <gustavsson> Hi. I have used Ubuntu for quite long now and suddenly my USB-devices can't be mounted anymore. /dev/sda is non-existent right now. I have tried with 2 different installations and 1 Live CD so it's some kind of hardware fault right :(?. Also my mp3player says that it's connected through usb.
[08:59] <Chaosphilipp> @njero: do you use icq or aim?
[08:59] <jshadias> i know 32-bit WinXP needs different drivers
[08:59] <njero> I use gtalk and skype
[09:00] <JacquelineG> so basically i should go with the 64 bit.  and does it perform better?
[09:00] <emuled1> /q el_gato #biblioteca
[09:00] <Chaosphilipp> i'm just looking for people who i can talk to about things to improve my english a little
[09:00] <pike_> JacquelineG: i chose not to didnt want the hassle of flash etc.
[09:01] <Chaosphilipp> @jacqueline: yes, if there is an explicite version, that seems to fit you, you should use it.....
[09:01] <JacquelineG> pike_: hmm, flash sucks in 64?
[09:01] <gustavsson> lsusb finds my usbdevice

[09:02] <pike_> JacquelineG: id google for details but i got the impression there were other problems as well

[09:02] <hkais> but no success
[09:02] <njero> ah... I don't know german... but<EMAIL_ADDRESS>is my gtalk/gmail...
[09:03] <Chaosphilipp> ikke: did you log in as root?
[09:03] <TurtleBoots> has any here ever used Ubuntu to mount an NFS partition... and would like to help ;-)
[09:03] <edd_> any1 know how to get sound working in flash???
[09:03] <njero> you are more than welcome to mail away :)
[09:03] <pike_> scotticus: a command to run from terminal once its running use the function keys to access other page
[09:03] <Chaosphilipp> i never looked for gtalk, but lets see ;)
[09:03] <TurtleBoots> *NTFS
[09:03] <jshadias> jacqueline: i think it runs SLIGHTLY slower, but i don't know if you'd notice it. the 64-bit comp i'm running is faster than anything i've ever touched. flash is a problem though, so is wine
[09:03] <TurtleBoots> !NTFS

[09:04] <JacquelineG> jshadias: how about video card situations.  does 64 work well with them?
[09:04] <jshadias> i haven't had any trouble
[09:04] <scotticus> pike_: well i don't have the package or the program.
[09:05] <hkais> hwo to set /sys/bus/scsi/devices/0\:0\:0\:0/block/queue/read_ahead_kb = 16384 permanently for a reboot?
[09:05] <GuestD59339> hi
[09:06] <pike_> scotticus: sorry i meant alsamixer
[09:06] <GuestD59339> anyone here knows what version should I use. I have amd64 bit
[09:06] <ikke81> pike_ sudo apt-get install gnome-alsamixer
[09:07] <scotticus> pike_ yes, i've used this, this controls the master and pcm volume (and balance) but when i plug my headphones in, it doesn't cut out the speakers on the laptop, they keep playing.  this worked under dapper.
[09:07] <hkais> how to set /sys/bus/scsi/devices/0\:0\:0\:0/block/queue/read_ahead_kb = 16384 permanently for a reboot?
[09:07] <enyc> Hrrm

[09:08] <GuestD59339> thanx
[09:08] <der0b> Heya folks, i'm looking to try out freenx and can't locate a win32 nxclient..  Any ideas on where I might find an archive containing the app?
[09:09] <der0b> v1.5 of the nxclient
[09:09] <jshadias> i think there's a way to run firefox as 32-bit from 64-bit ubuntu to get flash to work
[09:09] <enyc> I am having a weird shif-states problem with linux-console in edgy.... now my "alt-F3" console has an inverted 'shift is pressed' state! -- to the degree that I need SHIFT+alt+f[1/3/4/5/6]  to escape from that vertual terminal!

[09:11] <soon> Hi folks - short question: when mounting USB deviced in fstab you can use a particular hardware ID instead of the usual /dev/xxx ... whats the ID thing called so I can google ?
[09:11] <dfwlinuxguy> aeromix..what is the result of iwconfig?
[09:11] <alex-weej> soon: UUID

[09:11] <Antissn> Question : i have an printer ip1500 from canon but the only driver found is IP4000 how is it possible to get the driver , he can see the printer he recongnized but only the drv missing. thank you in advance
[09:11] <gabone> hi everybody
[09:12] <gabone> does anyone know an application like katapult from kde but for gnome ?
[09:12] <somerville32> Antissn, I have a IP1500. There are drivers for it.
[09:12] <hkais> how to set /sys/bus/scsi/devices/0\:0\:0\:0/block/queue/read_ahead_kb = 16384 permanently for a reboot?
[09:12] <hkais> really no help?
[09:12] <LjL> gabone: there is the Search Bar, it doesn't work like Katapult does, but i think it performs similar functions. you can just right click on the panel and add it
[09:13] <uMISTA> i get this error,   "Loading the KQEMU kernel module...

[09:14] <dfwlinuxguy> aeromix...install network-manger-gnome
[09:14] <dfwlinuxguy> that is the easiest way to get it working
[09:15] <LjL> gabone: well, keep in mind that it can be used as a panel icon (and the textbox only comes up when you click on it) also, besides as a panel-space-wasting textbox
[09:15] <somerville32> ency: Yes.
[09:15] <dfwlinuxguy> hkais use sysctl to set that
[09:15] <hdibani> anybody with Fn brightness buttons workin with sony vaio?
[09:15] <somerville32> ency: From a third party source
[09:15] <elvirolo> hi all
[09:16] <pike_> hdibani: you can use the xgamma command .. but not best solution maybe
[09:16] <dfwlinuxguy> aeromix..you will need to logout and log back in or run nm-applet to start it

[09:16] <elvirolo> is it possible to uninstall ubuntu-desktop and all its dependencies ?
[09:16] <gabone> LjL: aha. I didn't know this. I'll try it. Thanks
[09:16] <dfwlinuxguy> I am using it with wpa_supplicant and it works just fine
[09:16] <hdibani> thx
[09:16] <enyc> somerville32: hrrm looks like that needs a silly canon proprietary driver -- i.e. the printer does not take a 'normal' printer language
[09:16] <LjL> elvirolo: err... it's possible to uninstall ubuntu-desktop. but uninstalling "all its dependencies" means uninstalling the entire system.
[09:16] <aeromix> dfwlinuxguy: I use Kwifimanager but it seems like it doesn't look for any networks
[09:17] <somerville32> Antissn, Bit busy right now but google should be able to find it easy
[09:17] <elvirolo> LjL: well, i decided to switch from gnome to kde, so I don't want any gnome related app to remain on my system
[09:17] <dfwlinuxguy> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/WPAHowTo
[09:17] <dfwlinuxguy> this page will tell you how to set it up manually
[09:17] <nofeardjb> elvirolo: wouldn't a "sudo apt-get remove ubuntu-desktop" do the job for you?
[09:17] <dfwlinuxguy> I don't use kde
[09:18] <Antissn> sorry dude, will do so , i done it already even canon they told get hell outa here we do just microsoft
[09:18] <LjL> elvirolo: that's not easily achievable. however, removing the "libgnome2-0" package will do most of the job
[09:18] <somerville32> Antissn: Call them a whole bunch of times :P
[09:18] <LjL> elvirolo: after that, you can do a "dpkg --get-selections | grep gnome" to see what's left
[09:18] <LjL> nofeardjb: no
[09:18] <dbernar1> LjL: what about sudo aptitude remove ubuntu-desktop?
[09:18] <somerville32> Antissn, Anyhow, the dirvers were produced by Canon Japan or something.
[09:18] <somerville32> Antissn, *drivers
[09:18] <elvirolo> nofeardjb: no i'm afraid this just uninstalls ubuntu desktop
[09:18] <LjL> !ubuntu-desktop | dbernar1, nofeardjb
[09:18] <ubotu> dbernar1, nofeardjb: k/ed/x/ubuntu-desktop is a metapackage. It depends upon other packages and brings them in; you can safely remove it, but it is recommended that you re-install it when upgrading.
[09:18] <Antissn> dont worry i am working to make this country using only linux
[09:18] <somerville32> Antissn, But there are official drivers for Linux for it
[09:18] <dbernar1> elvirolo: try sudo aptitude remove ubuntu-desktop
[09:18] <somerville32> :)
[09:18] <elvirolo> LjL: ok thanks
[09:18] <LjL> dbernar1: it will just remove the metapackage. useless
[09:18] <dbernar1> LjL: try
[09:19] <LjL> dbernar1: what i can try is to remove kubuntu-desktop, since i'm a KDE user.
[09:19] <enyc> somerville32: canon provide a printfilter thing on http://software.canon-europe.com/software/0022415.asp  but this needs yuou to know hawto recompile things to get this working, I think
[09:19] <dbernar1> k
[09:19] <somerville32> enyc: There is a deb on a blog somewhere <g>
[09:19] <dfwlinuxguy> aeromix...I have seen many messages about people successfully using wifi-radar
[09:19] <LjL> dbernar1: and when i try that, of course, i don't get any packages removed
[09:19] <dfwlinuxguy> aeromix...there is knetworkmanager as well
[09:19] <LjL> (except kubuntu-desktop itself)
[09:19] <dbernar1> LjL: aptitude has different behavior than apt-get
[09:20] <LjL> dbernar1: it's the same whether i use aptitude or apt-get
[09:20] <dbernar1> LjL: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/36682/
[09:20] <LjL> dbernar1: aptitude only auto-removes unused dependencies *if they were installed with aptitude to begin with*
[09:20] <dbernar1> LjL: right.
[09:20] <Antissn> i try it , already but will do again, does anyone use opera as browser
[09:21] <LjL> dbernar1: if my kubuntu-desktop (or elvirolo's ubuntu-desktop) is a result of a plain installation from the CD, aptitude won't do a thing about it
[09:21] <Antissn> from it i chat, i see my email and i browse, also have the google the bittorent downloader
[09:21] <Antissn> i went to the site to fitch it
[09:21] <aeromix> dfwlinuxguy: how do I lunch network-manager-gnome?
[09:21] <Antissn> thank you
[09:21] <dfwlinuxguy> nm-applet
[09:22] <somerville32> Antissn, http://linux.cergynux.net/canon/
[09:22] <dfwlinuxguy> aeromix ...it will launch automatically when you reboot
[09:23] <dfwlinuxguy> aeromix...any luck?
[09:23] <aeromix> dfwlinuxguy: eth1      Interface doesn't support scanning : No such device
[09:23] <Antissn> you are to much kind dudes thx
[09:24] <aeromix> dfwlinuxguy: doesn't look very nice:)
[09:24] <aeromix> dfwlinuxguy: or do I need log in&out?
[09:24] <dfwlinuxguy> aeromix..have you changed /etc/network/interfaces from the default?
[09:24] <aeromix> dfwlinuxguy: no..
[09:25] <d1gital> how would i go about making my own livecd?
[09:25] <dfwlinuxguy> you might need to reboot...have you installed fwcutter?
[09:25] <aeromix> dfwlinuxguy: nop..
[09:26] <DamianFinol> Greetings, I installed enigmail with thunderbird through aptitude, singing works fine and everything, but everytime I open an email that's signed or encrypted, I get this message: gpg command line and output:,/usr/bin/gpg --charset utf8  --batch --no-tty --no-auto-check-trustdb --status-fd 2 --keyserver-options auto-key-retrieve --keyserver random.sks.keyserver.penguin.de, subkeys.pgp.net, pgp.mit.edu, ldap://certserver.pgp.com -d,usage: gp
[09:26] <DamianFinol> g [options]  [filename]    Instead of the usual prompt to download the key from a keyserver. Any ideas?
[09:26] <dfwlinuxguy> there is a script that installs the broadcom drivers after you install fwcutter
[09:26] <dpro> anyone has a hint why ifconfig tun0 up constantly states "NO SUCH DVICE"
[09:26] <dfwlinuxguy> you have to run it by hand
[09:26] <dfwlinuxguy> I was using those for my laptop
[09:26] <dpro> and yes the module is loaded ....
[09:26] <aeromix> dfwlinuxguy: what's the package fot fwcutter?
[09:26] <dbernar1> d1gital: http://www.gnewsense.org/Builder/HowToCreateYourOwnGNULinuxDistribution
[09:26] <dfwlinuxguy> you have to either use that or the ndiswrapper
[09:26] <dfwlinuxguy> one second
[09:27] <d1gital> dbernar:  thx
[09:27] <dfwlinuxguy> bcm43xx-fwcutter
[09:27] <Tobyman> Hi alL
[09:27] <aeromix> dfwlinuxguy: I have to use ndiswrapper, cuz the drivers are from windows
[09:27] <blackflare> I dont suppose anyone here has had experience getting ventrilo to work under wine?
[09:27] <soon> I have added the following to my fstab: UUID=c0c89034-92e2-4579-bb37-b14b6b09c346       /home/soon/CORSAIR      ext3    defaults,auto,user      0       0
[09:28] <dfwlinuxguy> ok..then don't install the fwcutter one
[09:28] <aeromix> dpro: what does iwconfig say?
[09:28] <dfwlinuxguy> mine had windows drivers as well, but I got it working with the fwcutter package
[09:28] <nofeardjb> A music messaging session has been requested. Please click the MM icon to accept.
[09:28] <soon> I was expeting the USB drive (from Corsair) to automount at /home/soon/CORSAIR ... it doesnt. When I right click to mount, it mounts at /media/usbdisk
[09:28] <aeromix> dpro: or ifconfig?
[09:28] <dpro> aeromix: iwconfig ? ifconfig says no such device ...
[09:28] <RoUx> ciao a tutti
[09:28] <nofeardjb> soon: that's how ubuntu automounts things for me...
[09:28] <RoUx> hi boys
[09:28] <soon> ciao
[09:29] <dabaR> soon: show the whole of fstab on pastebin
[09:29] <RoUx> can you help me?
[09:29] <soon> which pastebin ?
[09:29] <dabaR> paste.ubuntu-nl.org, give me the URL you get too.
[09:29] <dfwlinuxguy> are you using wpa_supplicant?
[09:29] <soon> okay then
[09:29] <dpro> aeromix: exactly: tun0: ERROR while getting interface flags: No such device
[09:30] <constrictor> anyone use perl?
[09:30] <dfwlinuxguy> dpro..that means the driver for your card is not loaded
[09:30] <soon> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/36692/
[09:30] <nofeardjb> soon: if you want it mounted else where you need to change your fstab to make it permanent otherwise use umount and mount to change it temporarily
[09:30] <dpro> aeromix: aftera "ifconfig tun0 up"
[09:30] <dabaR> constrictor: no, noone does.
[09:30] <aeromix> dfwlinuxguy, no..
[09:30] <aeromix> dpro: whats the device like?
[09:30] <javaJake> My battery indicator is saying 0%, but my battery is really fine!
[09:30] <dabaR> soon: no idea.
[09:31] <soon> fair enough :-)
[09:31] <javaJake> I can even "cat /proc/acpi/battery/CMB0/state" and see the remaining mWh in the battery.
[09:31] <javaJake> What's up?
[09:31] <soon> nofeardjb check my fstab at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/36692/
[09:31] <javaJake> And guys, PLEASE don't ignore me if you know!!!
[09:31] <Antissn> somerville32		Antissn, http://linux.cergynux.net/canon/ broked link
[09:31] <Antissn> when will you start support big games such as ghost recon AW, Quake 4, sniper elite, half life
[09:32] <soon> javajake ... you got all the ACPI stuff enable in kernel and BIOS ?
[09:32] <enyc> has anybody seen this invelted-shift-state problem in edgy-kernel whatnot -- I now have a  tty3  that has inverted shift-state -- infact I have to use alt+SHIFT+f[12456]  to escape from tty3 now!
[09:32] <Journeyman> Antissn, what do you mean "you guys"
[09:32] <javaJake> soon: don't know, how to do I tell?
[09:32] <edd_> any1 know how to get sound working in flash???
[09:32] <sysrage> anybody know a fix for flash videos (youtube, collegehumor, etc) only play about 2 seconds of video at a time?
[09:32] <nofeardjb> soon: it looks fine to me.. what happens when you restart?
[09:32] <enyc> [even if i go to tty3 and press/release the shift buttons and press capslock in attempt to reset the shift-state]
[09:32] <soon> Your BIOS you check during boot up ... try taht for starters
[09:32] <javaJake> soon: my bios is super super simple. Like, say, only time set and password. :(
[09:33] <Tobyman> I need your help... My Ubunutu doesn't start anymore... it stucks when trying to load "Confoguring Netowrk Interface..."... and this from the moment I tried to remove NdisWrapper and install it again... I get the instructions from here (http://ndiswrapper.sourceforge.net/mediawiki/index.php/Uninstall) Any idea how can I fix this... Thank you in advance for your help
[09:33] <soon> nofeardjb ... I havent rebooted ... its a USB memeory stickm, so I pull it in and out all the time ... not only for booting
[09:33] <javaJake> soon: so is there a different way to tell? I can pull up all sorts of info under /proc/acpi.
[09:33] <dfwlinuxguy> tobyman..you can hit ctl-c when it gets to that point and it should continue booting
[09:33] <dabaR> Tobyman: try booting a live CD, or rescue mode, and remove the ndiswrapper module. This is only a guess, though.
[09:33] <Antissn> if you have the linux patch to play those huge games
[09:34] <javaJake> soon: like my laptop temperature, battery information, cpu stuff, tc.
[09:34] <nofeardjb> hmmm
[09:34] <towel> anyone ever heard of a problem with 'network manager' where it is able to connect to unsecured wifi's but not secured?
[09:34] <nofeardjb> brb
[09:34] <javaJake> soon: my power manager says I'm at 0%, but also shows how much power I'm pulling from my battery....
[09:34] <Antissn> Soon AMD will come with the real Quad core
[09:34] <dfwlinuxguy> towel..depends on how it is secured
[09:34] <soon> javajake .. Im not sure, I think most kernels come with the ACPI on as default ... you may need to enable it in Gnome settings
[09:34] <javaJake> soon: and how do I do that?
[09:34] <mcgrof_> Anyone have an edgy sshd server with LDAP working? I'd like to see your /etc/pam.d/sshd
[09:35] <dfwlinuxguy> WEP is easy and insecure...WPA is more difficult but more secure
[09:35] <mcgrof_> ssh rather
[09:35] <soon> I use xubuntu .. dont know Gnome ...
[09:35] <javaJake> soon: oh, rats
[09:35] <soon> WHERE WHERE ?!?!
[09:35] <somerville32> Woot Xubuntu! :)
[09:35] <javaJake> soon: well, terminal ways will do it. I'm not really a n00b.
[09:35] <javaJake> somerville32: works really well on a 64 MB laptop. :D
[09:35] <nofeardjb> soon: have you done a "sudo mount -a" ?
[09:35] <somerville32> soon: You should join #xubuntu :)
[09:35] <soon> nope
[09:36] <ramon1> movistar
[09:36] <javaJake> soon: how do I make sure acpi is enabled through the terminal?
[09:36] <soon> now I have :-)
[09:36] <ramon1> movistaar
[09:36] <n2diy> I couldn't get Dapper to install on my test box, so I installed Breezy. Can I upgrade to Dapper now, with the CD?
[09:36] <somerville32> Yup
[09:36] <nofeardjb> soon: how's it working?
[09:36] <soon> fine :-)
[09:36] <dfwlinuxguy> lsmod | grep acpi
[09:37] <ramon1> movistar
[09:37] <nofeardjb> soon: excellent
[09:37] <Uboon2> I started xpenguins, they walk all over my desktop. How can I stop them?  HELP!
[09:37] <dfwlinuxguy> javaJake lsmod | grep acpi
[09:37] <soon> Hmm Javajake ... ACPI can be enabled / disabled in BIOS, in GRUB/LILO, in Kernel and through the desktion environment configs
[09:37] <pike_> Uboon2: you cant theyve taken over by now
[09:37] <Uboon2> pike loll
[09:37] <soon> you must feed them herrings
[09:37] <psusi> Uboon2: kill xpenguinds... ctrl-c if you are still in the terminal window
[09:37] <MarcN> Uboon2: open a console and type    killall xpengins
[09:37] <javaJake> soon: well, would gnome be getting information about my battery  in the first place if acpi wasn't working?  I dont think so
[09:38] <javaJake> soon: thought so
[09:38] <soon> what is you laptop?
[09:38] <javaJake> soon: yea
[09:38] <javaJake> soon: oh, Compaq Presario 1720US.
[09:39] <javaJake> It's on the older end (1.2 GHz)
[09:39] <Tobyman> dfwlinuxguy -> Ctrl + C doesn't help
[09:39] <soon> http://zenux.net/linux/1720.html
[09:39] <javaJake> Seveas: wasn;t that a little... extreme?
[09:39] <soon> might help you  ...
[09:40] <Tobyman> dabaR -=> I will try the Live CD...
[09:40] <lifepositive> firefox is not open, but it says firerfox is running and that I cant open firefox until I close firefox!  Any solution?
[09:40] <dfwlinuxguy> then you should boot up in single usermode and remove ndiswrapper..apt-get remove ndiswrapper
[09:40] <psusi> lifepositive: reboot?
[09:40] <mobile> hello,
[09:41] <lifepositive> psusi: any soilution besides reboot?
[09:41] <Vixus> Argh
[09:41] <psusi> lifepositive: open task manager and kill the running firefox
[09:41] <javaJake> soon: wow, that guy has the same hardware config as mine... problem is, he's using a kernel patch. I don't want to compile my kernel. *Sigh*
[09:41] <Vixus> Now my laptop monitor doesn't work under ubuntu at all
[09:41] <dfwlinuxguy> killall firefox-bin
[09:41] <lifepositive> psusi: task manager?
[09:41] <lifepositive> psusi: how I load it?
[09:41] <Vixus>  even at runlevel 3
[09:41] <drach> lifepositive: remove file lock from /home/user/name/.mozilla/firefox/***.default/
[09:42] <drach> lifepositive: remove file lock from /home/user_name/.mozilla/firefox/***.default/
[09:42] <mobile> hello,
[09:42] <mobile> my wlan card works under edgy with org. kernel, i build a new kernel but now i cant use the card or load the ath_pci module.
[09:42] <EmxBA> seveas: there?
[09:42] <dfwlinuxguy> lifepositive killall -9 firefox-bin
[09:42] <Vixus> anyone else have problems with the nvidia drivers?
[09:42] <EmxBA> seveaz: ?
[09:42] <lifepositive> dfwlinuxguy: thanks!  "killall firefox-bin" fixed it :)
[09:42] <dfwlinuxguy> no problem
[09:42] <lifepositive> dfwlinuxguy: I didnt need the 9
[09:42] <psusi> you should never do kill -9 without a regular kill first
[09:42] <lifepositive> drach: killall firefox-bin worked easier
[09:42] <javaJake> soon: yea, limited acpi support is the problem. Drat.
[09:43] <javaJake> soon: well, I'll just have a cat program running so I can watch how much my battery power's dropped. :)

[09:43] <dfwlinuxguy> yes
[09:43] <DarkQueen> hola?
[09:44] <lifepositive> psusi: no need to load it! killall firefox-bin worked

[09:48] <Darst> wil keep googling...
[09:48] <pike_> metatecque: sudo gdmsetup i think havent used it in a while
[09:48] <Tobyman> Which program I can use for remote connection, something similar to LogMeIn... I would to have a full control from to my PC... and to be able to see my Desktop (something like vnc... but more secure) Thank you
[09:48] <dfwlinuxguy> maybe you need to uncomment multiverse in /etc/apt/sources.list?
[09:48] <FFForever> i really need printer support
[09:48] <nofeardjb> Tobyman: xnest is one possibility
[09:48] <SambaNEWBIE> Samba isn't working right. New install on Ubuntu 5.10. This is the error message can't open username map /etc/samba/smbusers. Error No such file or directory

[09:49] <Dybber> Hi I am trying to get grub to automatically boot up in Ubuntu if nothing other is selected in the boot-menu. timeout is set to 10 in /boot/grub/menu.lst but it doesn't work
[09:49] <Vixus> DarkQueen: Wasn't it detected by Ubuntu?
[09:49] <dfwlinuxguy> sambanewbie have you run smbpasswd and created users?
[09:49] <pike_> Dybber: timeout doesnt work or it boots wrong os?
[09:49] <Tobyman> 10x guys I appreaciate your help
[09:49] <cypher1> is not opera available in edgy-commercial repository ?
[09:49] <SambaNEWBIE> dfwlinuxguy .. yes I did.
[09:50] <Dybber> pike_: timeout doesn't work its just waiting for user input
[09:50] <spx2> does someone here code in vim
[09:50] <psusi> Dybber: define 'doesn't work'
[09:50] <spx2> ?
[09:50] <DarkQueen> Not, says that he(she) needs instalr a controller
[09:50] <mobile> dfwlinuxguy no i install nothing because it works with edgy out of the box
[09:50] <nofeardjb> spx2: yup for C++ i do
[09:50] <lewyjh> cypher1, why do you need sufari? mozzila is very similar to it.
[09:50] <metatecque> !doesn
[09:50] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about doesn - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[09:50] <metatecque> !doesn't work
[09:50] <ubotu> Doesn't work is a strong statement. Does it sit on the couch all day? Does it want more money? Is it on IRC all the time? Please be specific! Examples of what doesn't work tend to help too.
[09:50] <spx2> nofeardjb: i would like to ask you how did you configure it
[09:51] <dfwlinuxguy> sambanewbie...sorry ls /etc/samba/smbusers returns what?
[09:51] <n2diy> Can I upgrade Breezy to Dapper with the CD? it is a test box, so data loss isn't an issue.
[09:51] <Vixus> To boot into text mode... is it runlevel=3 or runlevel 3 at the end of the kernel line in grub?????????
[09:51] <pike_> Dybber: syntax in menu.lst is "timeout     10" without the # ?
[09:51] <nofeardjb> spx2: this site helped me a ton http://www.vi-improved.org/tutorial.php
[09:51] <Dybber> pike_ yes
[09:51] <psusi> n2diy: you don't even need the cd to do it
[09:51] <SambaNEWBIE> dfwlinuxguy .. there is no file, I have checked that. I am not sure why not or how to fix.
[09:51] <spx2> nofeardjb: but i have to read allot
[09:51] <padavoine> n2diy: don't you wanna upgrade to edgy ?
[09:51] <dfwlinuxguy> mobile...apt-cache search wifi-radar returns the package for me
[09:51] <Dybber> psusi: the grub menu doesn't go in any OS by default - its just waiting for me selecting an OS
[09:51] <nofeardjb> spx2: lol what do you want specifically?
[09:52] <n2diy> Psusi, The test box is isolated from the internet.
[09:52] <DarkQueen> Vixus: Do you know where I can search?
[09:52] <padavoine> n2diy: oh yeah that makes a difference
[09:52] <psusi> Dybber: did you tell it which one should be the default?
[09:52] <dfwlinuxguy> sambanewbie..you only need that file if you are going to map windows users to a different unix user
[09:52] <lewyjh> !kill
[09:52] <ubotu> The linux terminal or command-line interface is very powerful. Open a terminal via Applications -> Accessories -> Terminal (Gnome) or K-menu -> System -> Konsole (KDE).   Any idea why I can't authenticate? I assumed that was the problem as the error logged on the machine I am trying to log into.

[09:54] <bjv> does this channel still ban tor?
[09:54] <cyber_brain_mfkg> ???
[09:54] <psusi> Dybber: yep... default 0 and timeout 10 should do it
[09:54] <psusi> Dybber: pastebin your menu.lst
[09:54] <nofeardjb> go to no-ip.com?
[09:54] <boink> or you could use www.dyndns.org
[09:54] <boink> that's a free ip-service too
[09:55] <SambaNEWBIE> cyber_brian_mfkg - I am using dyndns.org right now to ssh in with no problems.
[09:55] <dfwlinuxguy> sambanewbie...you will need to fix that first and restart samba then tell me if you still can't log in
[09:55] <othy> dfwlinuxguy:  I don't have mutiverse, I have universe && backport
[09:55] <boink> dyndns.org works very well
[09:55] <cyber_brain_mfkg> ok i reg myself on noip.com
[09:55] <aragorn_> have anyone installed dmraid on edgy?
[09:55] <zukalk> i can't get sound to work on america's army. killall esd doesn't work anymore. any ideas?
[09:55] <cyber_brain_mfkg> but i don't know what type of server i need
[09:55] <dfwlinuxguy> othy...edgy or dapper?
[09:55] <n2diy> padavoine, it's my test box, no significant data is on it.
[09:55] <psusi> aragorn_: I have not installed it in edgy, but I wrote the FakeRaidHowto on the wiki
[09:55] <vixus> Ok, I finaly got into console, I'm using irssi
[09:55] <othy> dfwlinuxguy: dapper
[09:56] <vixus> How do I switch between bashes?
[09:56] <nofeardjb> cyber: you don't need a server?
[09:56] <psusi> vixus: huh?
[09:56] <SambaNEWBIE> dwflinuxguy - I'm sorry I think I missed something. Fix what first?
[09:56] <Dybber> psusi and pike_: my menu.lst http://pastebin.ca/276998
[09:56] <nofeardjb> cyber: what do you want to do with a domain name then?
[09:56] <vixus> psusi: Can't I have multiple text screens.
[09:56] <GuestD59339> what shoul I use: Ubuntu desktop 6.10 i386.iso?
[09:56] <Jary> hello everyone
[09:56] <cyber_brain_mfkg> nofeardjb: i want 2 use ssh!!! one friend told me i need noip registration and host
[09:57] <vixus> psusi: CTRL+ALT+??
[09:57] <padavoine> msg GuestD59339 what for ?
[09:57] <n2diy> vixus, if your running X, yes, just open multible terminals.
[09:57] <GuestD59339> I'm new in linux and I'll install ubuntu
[09:57] <cyber_brain_mfkg> nofeardjb: he told me i might need this because of my ISP
[09:57] <vixus> Not in X!
[09:57] <dfwlinuxguy> othy...in /etc/apt/sources.list..add multiverse after everywhere you see universe...then reload if you are using synaptic or apt-get update
[09:57] <vixus> In text mode... how do I switch between... inputs?
[09:57] <SambaNEWBIE> cyber - I suggest dyndns.org as it probably works with your router making it much easier to use.
[09:57] <vixus> Terminals.
[09:57] <psusi> vixus: yea... ctrl-alt-n will switch to the nth tty
[09:57] <vixus> thanks
[09:58] <Jary> I have a trouble installing ubuntu. When I try to install, it tries to load the kernel, then after it hits 100%; I have a black screen with 3 lines showing it couldn't load the kernel
[09:58] <aragorn_> psusi : Hi!!! I've read several times your wiki! It's wonderful!
[09:58] <psusi> Dybber: that looks like it should auto boot windows after 10 seconds
[09:58] <dfwlinuxguy> sambanewbie...get it working?
[09:58] <padavoine> Guest --> what's the pc... you want desktop for sure, then it depends on what processor you have
[09:58] <n2diy> vixus, ok, can't help you there.
[09:58] <vixus> psusi: it's not working in irssi.
[09:58] <nofeardjb> cyber: ooooh
[09:58] <Dybber> psusi, yea but it doesn't auto-boot anything
[09:58] <psusi> aragorn_: thank you
[09:58] <vixus> psusi: As in, I'm trying it but nothing's happening.
[09:58] <SambaNEWBIE> dwflinuxguy -- I somehow missed your instruction. What was the last thing you wanted me to do?
[09:58] <nofeardjb> cyber: sent you IM
[09:58] <psusi> vixus: you have to use the left ctrl and alt keys for some ancient reason
[09:59] <psusi> Dybber: try changing the default to 1?
[09:59] <GuestD59339> amd64 3500+
[09:59] <aragorn_> psusi : I've a question for you ;) I followed all the edgy bug on launchpad
[09:59] <drach> Jary: what is chipset on motherboard? intel 965?
[09:59] <GuestD59339> 1gb ram
[09:59] <dfwlinuxguy> sambanewbie...if you are not mapping windows users to a different linux user...comment out the smbusers line in your smb.conf...restart samba and try to log in again
[09:59] <nofeardjb> cyber: did you get my IM?
[09:59] <cyber_brain_mfkg> nofeardjb: yes
[09:59] <Jary> drach: I am using AMD athlon
[09:59] <nofeardjb> lol kk respond in there once you've complete that
[09:59] <Antissn> see ya , , AMD user best choice
[09:59] <Dybber> psusi, ok I will try that now *rebooting*
[09:59] <SambaNEWBIE> dwflinuxguy - thanks will try and get back to you soon.
[10:00] <aragorn_> psusi: and I installed the patched version of dmraid...now all works fine but there is still a problem
[10:00] <mobile> hello, pls help me. i compile a new kernel and my wlan card doesnt work. with the orig. kernel my atheros / madwifi cards works out of the box.
[10:00] <Jary> drach: AMD Athlon(tm) 64 X2 Dual, to be precise
[10:01] <M0E^lnx> hey guys, I've created a script... of course it starts with #/bin/sh but when I try to execute it, it says /bin/sh bad interpreter
[10:01] <M0E^lnx> any ideas?
[10:01] <vixus> Ok, I checked my xorg.conf, the driver is definitely nvidia, but my monitor still won't turn on... X is running, sounds coming fine but somehow I can't see anything. I am on a laptop.
[10:01] <aragorn_> psusi: how can I lauch dmraid during the boot? I have to start it manually every time
[10:01] <ubun> how can i mount a .iso to see it's files virtually (so i dont have to burn it to CD to use it, like you can with 'daemon-tools' in windows)?
[10:01] <cyber_brain_mfkg> nofeardjb: IM???
[10:01] <GuestD59339> anyone can help me installing ubuntu?
[10:01] <vixus> This all happened after I followed the Ubuntu nvidia guide.
[10:01] <psusi> M0E^lnx: you mean it starts with #!/bin/sh right?
[10:01] <vixus> Anyone know how to solve this?
[10:01] <calm> i have a problem. my desktop is frozen. i can move the mouse, and my desktop icons will highlight on mouseover. clicking on icons does nothing, though. the panel does not respond to anything. Alt-F1 will highlight the "applications" menu, but it does not actually open the menu. (the arrow keys don't do anything from there)
[10:01] <dfwlinuxguy> it's #!/bin/sh
[10:01] <M0E^lnx> yes
[10:02] <dfwlinuxguy> you put #/bin/sh
[10:02] <psusi> aragorn_: once you install the package it sets itself to start during boot
[10:02] <cfd90> Help!  I updated to Edgy via the automatic updator, and now X is broken and I can't seem to fix it...
[10:02] <cfd90> Is this common?
[10:02] <ubun> calm restart X with ctrl+alt+backspace i guess
[10:02] <dfwlinuxguy> dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[10:02] <cfd90> Eh, I guess I'll reconfigure it :|
[10:02] <vixus> Ho hum.
[10:03] <ikke81> hello everybody
[10:03] <cyber_brain_mfkg> nofeardjb: u send me something or not?
[10:03] <calm> i don't want to restart, because i'm ssh-ed into other computers and running compute-intensive jobs on them
[10:03] <aragorn_> psusi: that doesn't work , I have to start dmraid every time with the "dmraid -ay "
[10:03] <vixus> Is it something to do with my resolution or memory settings?
[10:03] <vixus> Can anyone... help me?
[10:03] <ikke81> the commando dpkg does'nt work any more
[10:03] <ikke81> i get the following error
[10:03] <psusi> aragorn_: you are running edgy right?  try reinstalling the package?
[10:03] <vixus> Please? This is a really strange issue.
[10:04] <dfwlinuxguy> vixus..you have to ask a question before we can help you
[10:04] <vixus> I did.
[10:04] <vixus> Ok, I checked my xorg.conf, the driver is definitely nvidia, but my monitor still won't turn on... X is running, sounds coming fine but somehow I can't see anything. I am on a laptop.
[10:04] <Mazingaro> vega-: ubuntu is just a crap :)
[10:04] <axolx> hey guys - i convinced my sister to use ubuntu (im a debian user). she installed Edgy but the installer did not reformat a NTFS partition. is there a friendly partitioner that comes with ubuntu that she can use to reformat the NTFS partition to EXT3? i dont want to tell her to use fdisk because i dont want to scare hey yet :)
[10:04] <mobile> dfwlinuxguy no i install nothing. is it necessary to build a module? with th ubuntu kernel it works out of the box
[10:04] <deacont23> Is there a updated naim package available? the universe one is old
[10:04] <psusi> aragorn_: I assume you are booting from a disk other than the raid array right?
[10:04] <Mazingaro> please I've got a problem with an usb cam (Quick Cam Chat from logitech). I loaded the spca5xx module and enbale v4l in X, but no /dev/video it's created by udev. Even creating by hand it make it worked...
[10:04] <aragorn_> psusi: yes I'm running edgy and yes I've already tried to install again the package..
[10:04] <vixus> dfwlinuxguy: Happy? :D
[10:04] <padavoine> mazingaro : come on man its free, its great, it's not windows, you can't say it's crap ;-)
[10:04] <mobile> axolx qparted ?
[10:04] <psusi> axolx: gparted
[10:04] <ambimom> axolx:  take it from me...tell your sister to install dapper...it's easier and less buggy\
[10:04] <dfwlinuxguy> vixus...monitor turned on?
[10:05] <vixus> dfwlinuxguy: Laptop.
[10:05] <axolx> mobile: psusi : is it installed with the default edgy desktop installation?
[10:05] <ulaas> dfwlinuxguy: good one :)
[10:05] <dfwlinuxguy> mobile...yes you must install the new modules for the new kernel you built
[10:05] <network-coder> algum br ?
[10:05] <psusi> axolx: it is installed on the livecd
[10:05] <ulaas> vixus: even better :)
[10:05] <vixus> dfwlinuxguy: Presumably my monitor is glowing slightly, so it's on, and I'm writing this in text mode now so it's on.
[10:05] <ubun> is there a way for gnome-terminal to save 'sessions' like firefox 2.0 does. where it will remember my tabs and what i last had running?
[10:05] <fetus> Question : how to install xubuntu with cd rom boot up but from the internet?
[10:05] <cfd90> Please work :P Please work! :P
[10:05] <ambimom> ubun:  yes extension is session manager
[10:06] <dfwlinuxguy> vixus...did you see the X try to start?
[10:06] <Dybber> psusi, now ubuntu was just selected as default instead of windows (thats a good thing) but it still doesnt boot automatically. I tried booting several times and it looks like there are som text shown in a  second in the bottom of the screen saying something about ".10 seconds"
[10:06] <pike_> vixus: alt-ctrl-f2   login  then sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[10:06] <mobile> dfwlinuxguy is the module standard in the ubuntu kernel ?
[10:06] <Dybber> some*
[10:06] <psusi> aragorn_: is this a raid0 or a raid1?  and you are booting from a non raid disk right?
[10:06] <lupine_85> omgomgooops
[10:06] <dfwlinuxguy> vixus are you using the nv driver or the nvidia?
[10:06] <nofeardjb> fetus: what do you mean from the internet?
[10:06] <ulaas> vixus: i feel totally helpy today. so get msg me on private so i will help.
[10:06] <feugan3333> Hi all. Does anyone know where I can find some relevant documentation on hotplug or udev. I want to be able to access data on my cell phone without being root. From what I've discovered I should use hotplug for this.
[10:06] <aragorn_> psusi: yes I've a PATA disk for linux and I want to access the windows partitions on the raid
[10:06] <aragorn_> psusi: it's a raid 0 (nvidia)
[10:06] <vixus> dfwlinuxguy: I assume it has started, in a way. The system didn't hang, go to console or spit up errors. I heard the ubuntu login noise, so I put in my user and pass, and sure enough, it logged me in. Just no visuals.
[10:06] <psusi> Dybber: are you touching the keyboard at all?  it stops the timeout if you press any key
[10:06] <fetus> nofeardjb: something like installing from windows when it boots up the installer and everything else downloads from repos online
[10:07] <ubun> ambimom where do i get the extention?
[10:07] <network-coder> What of channel ubuntu-br ?
[10:07] <lupine_85> I just deleted a BIND zone file... Any way to get it to regenerate the data? I have a master and slave server running with the zone loaded...
[10:07] <ambimom> from mozilla...go to mozilla site and look for add-ons
[10:07] <psusi> aragorn_: strange.... it should work....
[10:07] <ubun> ambimom no i meant for gnome-terminal not for firefox :P
[10:07] <ambimom> ubun:  installing extensions in firefox is easy
[10:07] <ambimom> ahhhh...sorry ubun
[10:07] <nofeardjb> fetus: not sure if i understand... do you want the install disk to install less packages?
[10:07] <vixus> dfwlinux: It must be something to do with my nvidia driver install.
[10:07] <GuestD59339> can I burn ubunto .iso in a dvd?
[10:08] <dfwlinuxguy> vixus..I use the nvidia driver...if that one doesn't work..try the nv driver...you can kill the X session (which should restart it) with alt-ctl-backspace
[10:08] <nofeardjb> fetus: like a barebones installation?
[10:08] <ubun> guest yes
[10:08] <ubun> you can even burn the CD iso to dvd, that's what i did
[10:08] <dfwlinuxguy> moble...anytime you build a custom kernel...you have to also install the modules for that new kernel
[10:08] <fetus> nofeardjb: sorry ... found it :D https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/MinimalCD
[10:08] <vixus> dfwlinuxguy: Isn't that the one that comes with Ubuntu?
[10:08] <nofeardjb> there ya go
[10:08] <aragorn_> psusi: I'm crying...
[10:08] <fetus> nofeardjb: thanks anyways .. just didnt see it on the installation page ...
[10:08] <nofeardjb> fetus: i was about to send you there lol
[10:08] <GuestD59339> what's the best ubuntu version for amd64 3500, 1gb ram, nvidia graphic card?
[10:09] <vixus> dfwlinuxguy: I've never ever had to use it on any of my installs I don't think
[10:09] <mc__> GuestD59339: are you new to linux?
[10:09] <dfwlinuxguy> vixus....nv is the open source driver...nvidia is the proprietary nvidia driver
[10:09] <ReWT_AxS> im getting error:   Internal Error Failed to Initialize HAL!
[10:09] <psusi> aragorn_: can you pastebin /var/log/messages?
[10:09] <fetus> nofeardjb: i was looking and looking and finally thought i was dumb like shit ... because i allready done it once but couldnt remember the name ...
[10:09] <ReWT_AxS> Any ideas?
[10:09] <Dybber> psusi, im not touching it my self - but it looks as if i did (this works on my stationary PC so I know how the grub-menu behaves normally)
[10:09] <ubun> is xorg pronounced zorg?
[10:10] <mc__> ubun: nope
[10:10] <cyber_brain_mfkg> nofeardjb: man can u see my private msg 2 you?
[10:10] <nofeardjb> apparently not...
[10:10] <nofeardjb> :-(
[10:10] <mc__> cyber_brain_mfkg: you have to be registered to be able to send private messages
[10:10] <mc__> sorry for my bad english
[10:10] <nofeardjb> lol
[10:10] <vixus> dfwlinuxguy: How do I restart my X now?
[10:10] <SambaNEWBIE> dwflinuxguy - still there?
[10:10] <cyber_brain_mfkg> mc__: how 2 reg?
[10:10] <dfwlinuxguy> vixus...I remember something like that on my ati card...I had to comment out dri in xorg.conf ....alt-ctl-backspace
[10:10] <nofeardjb> ya do a  /register
[10:11] <vixus> dfwlinuxguy: Going back via ctrl-alt-f7 doesn't work.
[10:11] <aragorn_> psusi: I'm trying :)
[10:11] <ulaas> vixus: msg me when you are desperate enough
[10:11] <cyber_brain_mfkg> nofeardjb: and ehat now?
[10:11] <cyber_brain_mfkg> *what
[10:11] <vixus> ulaas: Sure.
[10:11] <Dybber> psusi, maybe its the hardware that sends a signal of somekind that shouldn't be send - i will try to get my "local" linux expert to look at this when i meet him :) I think its pretty difficult to fix this when you can't see it yourself?
[10:11] <nofeardjb> did you register?
[10:11] <mc__> cyber_brain_mfkg: type /msg NickServ help
[10:11] <w3323> anyone using mesa 6.5.2 with ubuntu???????
[10:12] <psusi> Dybber: yea, that is what it sounds like to me
[10:12] <SambaNEWBIE> dwflinuxguy -- still there??
[10:12] <dfwlinuxguy> yes
[10:12] <GuestD59339> If I put ubunto cd on and reboot it will install, erase drives, create partitions itself like windos?
[10:12] <Spaghetti_Knife> Anyone ever install kompile?
[10:13] <cyber_brain_mfkg> nofeardjb: i typed /register
[10:13] <cyber_brain_mfkg> nofeardjb: what now?
[10:13] <Music_Shuffle> GuestD59339, with some configuration, yes...its not completely automatic.
[10:13] <mc__> cyber_brain_mfkg: that was wrong
[10:13] <Music_Shuffle> But its very simple, yes.
[10:13] <mc__> cyber_brain_mfkg: did you read what /msg NickServ help says?
[10:13] <nofeardjb> isn't it "/register <password>" ?
[10:13] <cyber_brain_mfkg> mc__: yes but after i did that
[10:14] <SambaNEWBIE> dwflinuxguy -- I didn't find the line to comment. The following are there: Security = user, encrypt passwords = true, passdb backend = tdbsam, obey pam restrictions = yes, guest account = nobody
[10:14] <nofeardjb> cyber: try sending me an IM now
[10:15] <ubun> can nautilus mount an iso 'virtually' like daemon-tools in windows?
[10:15] <nofeardjb> it should have told you "yes you are now registered blah blah blah your password is" "blah"" did you get that message back?
[10:15] <heatxsink> hello all any idea what the latest version of Trac is for LTS?
[10:15] <dfwlinuxguy> newbie..one second
[10:15] <heatxsink> lol
[10:15] <heatxsink> thanks
[10:15] <pike_> ubun: mount -o loop /home/username/file.iso /media/whatever
[10:16] <ubun> i know that command, just wondering if there was a gui way
[10:16] <pike_> ubun: ah
[10:16] <MtJB> is it possible to watch cnn videos on edgy using vlc?
[10:16] <mjr> ubun, you can do it with nautilus scripts; see eg. http://doc.gwos.org/index.php/Mount_ISO_script
[10:17] <ubun> thanks
[10:17] <foo> Where is the unzip binary? I can't find it in the sources.
[10:17] <nofeardjb> mtjb: https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/446/
[10:17] <nofeardjb> mtjb: works for me
[10:17] <MtJB> thanks, nofeardjb
[10:17] <cyber_brain_mfkg> nofeardjb: what i'm doing wrong?
[10:18] <WizCraker> how do I restart apache in ubuntu?
[10:18] <aragorn_> psusi: it's quite huge ;)
[10:18] <stazi> hello all. Trying to install edgy, i'm at the partition selection screen and i have selected a root partition, when i hit forward, i get an error saying "no root filesystem"
[10:18] <stazi> any ideas?
[10:18] <Catshrimp> Hm, anyone happen to know how to get openoffice.org2 to follow the gtk2 theme?
[10:18] <WizCraker> I tried apachctl graceful but that doesn't seem to work.
[10:18] <GuestD59339> Music_Shuffle: pm's
[10:18] <nofeardjb> cyber: i have no idea
[10:18] <WizCraker> *apachectl
[10:18] <M0E^lnx> hey guys, anyone know where the gnome wallpapers are stored?
[10:18] <psusi> !pastebin
[10:18] <ubotu> pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (be sure to give the URL of your paste - see also the #ubuntu channel topic)
[10:18] <blackflare> anyone use wine-doors?
[10:18] <brianMan> What firewall/gateway package is best recommended? Smoothwall, monowall or something else?
[10:18] <Catshrimp> WizCraker: sudo /etc/init.d/apache2 restart
[10:18] <nofeardjb> cyber: did you do this?: "/register <what ever you want your password to be>"
[10:19] <psusi> hrm... now where did that handy dandy command line go that shoves a whole file into pastebin?
[10:19] <Catshrimp> WizCraker: sudo /etc/init.d/apache2 reload (if you just want to reread the config file)
[10:19] <vschiavoni> any repositories for postgres 8.2 in edgy ?
[10:19] <brianMan> Preferably something that can be configured somewhat through a webinterface
[10:19] <dfwlinuxguy> sambanewbie...look for this --- username map = /etc/samba/smbusers --- that has to be in there since you are getting that error
[10:19] <WizCraker> Catshrimp: thanks for the quick reply. :)
[10:19] <stazi> Catshrimp, i think there is a package to make OOo use gnome's theming
[10:19] <Catshrimp> WizCraker: no prob dude :)
[10:19] <SambaNEWBIE> dwflinuxguy - okay moment will check.
[10:19] <Catshrimp> stazi: Yeah, I see the gnome package.  But what if I'm just running fluxbox?
[10:19] <blackflare> I think I installed wine-doors but I have no idea how to run it
[10:20] <kuene> hi, how can i remove the help menu from the gnome main menu ?
[10:20] <dfwlinuxguy> kuene...right click..remove from panel
[10:20] <stazi> Catshrimp, not gnome itself, there is an OOo gnome theme package iirc
[10:20] <rulus> kuene: I suppose via Alacarte Menu editor
[10:20] <kuene> doe not work ...
[10:21] <MtJB> nofeardjb, how do i install that plugin, i just saved it to my hard drive
[10:21] <MtJB> do i move it to plugins directory?
[10:21] <kuene> rulus, from the main menu not from the panel
[10:21] <GuestD59339> anyone has experience installing ubuntu?
[10:21] <kuene> i want to remove the help menu from the system menu!
[10:21] <dfwlinuxguy> kuene ..system...preferences...menu layout...uncheck it there
[10:22] <pike_> GuestD59339: i would imagine a great many people here :)
[10:22] <kuene> dfwlinuxguy, it can not be uncheckt!
[10:22] <GuestD59339> will I have any problems with drivers?
[10:22] <jerp> kuene, try synaptic
[10:22] <fetus> nofeardjb: hey ...me again is there a way to install xfce with minimalCD
[10:23] <Adam_G> Hi people. I've been getting login attempts from an IP Address- how do I block them? I have firestarter installed.
[10:23] <kuene> dfwlinuxguy, it does not show up in the menu layout tool!
[10:23] <fetus> nofeardjb: meaning xubuntu
[10:23] <Vixus> Ok, I got X working again, thanks dfwlinuxguy.
[10:23] <pike_> GuestD59339: i have installed in several desktops/laptops and very rarely run into problems.  i would recomment nvidia over ati but either will work for 2d stuff
[10:23] <n2diy_> Vixus, what was the fix?
[10:23] <Vixus> Now I messed around with dpkg-reconfigure trying to get a proper screen res
[10:23] <fetus> anyone : is there a way to install xubuntu with minimalCD install
[10:23] <SambaNEWBIE> dwflinuxguy - I did a find command and I didn't find it.
[10:24] <Vixus> n2diy_: nvidia changed to nv
[10:24] <kuene> dfwlinuxguy, do you know where the conf-files for the main-menu are? it can not be found in /usr/share/desktop-directories
[10:24] <chable> how do i allow connectons on 28485 with iptables ?
[10:24] <xipietotec> what's the program that auto-detects cameras when you plug them in called?
[10:24] <dfwlinuxguy> kuene...move /usr/share/applications/yelp.desktop to your home folder to save it or just delete it and it will be gone
[10:24] <aragorn_> psusi: I've pasted it :)
[10:24] <n2diy_> Vixus, the name of the module?
[10:24] <Vixus> any idea how to add custom screen resolutions? (Oh great, now the screen resolutions dialog is showing 0Hz refresh rate)
[10:24] <jerp> kuene, try Synaptic  Look for Ubuntu-Docs
[10:24] <fetus> Xubuntu .... minimalCD (netboot) ... install ... anyone??
[10:24] <dfwlinuxguy> vixus..how did you fix it?
[10:24] <pike_> !install | fetus
[10:24] <ubotu> fetus: Ubuntu can be installed in lots of ways. Please see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation for documentation. Problems during install? See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/CommonProblemsInstall and https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DapperReleaseNotes/UbiquityKnownIssues
[10:24] <jerp> if that doesn't do it, you can always reinstall it
[10:24] <Vixus> dfwlinuxguy, I changed nvidia to nv.
[10:25] <dfwlinuxguy> cool
[10:25] <pike_> fetus: id recommend server install then xubuntu apt-get
[10:25] <kuene> dfwlinuxguy, i have tried this, does not work.
[10:25] <psusi> aragorn_: url?
[10:25] <Vixus> dfwlinuxguy, But now I don't think my card is being used at all. scrolling is unsmooth and there's no nvidia splashscreen
[10:25] <fetus> pike_ : ok ... how to install server?
[10:25] <pike_> fetus: the link above gives many options
[10:25] <rulus> fetus: can be done via Alternate install cd
[10:25] <kuene> jerp, i to not want to uninstall it i just do not want this menu!
[10:25] <aragorn_> psusi: ops :) http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/36703/
[10:25] <dfwlinuxguy> you only see the splash screen with the propreitary nvidia driver
[10:26] <SambaNEWBIE> dwflinuxguy - I cannot find the line in the smb.conf file.
[10:26] <fetus> pike_: i only can use minimalcd meaning to download everything over the net whil installing
[10:26] <ReWT_AxS> im getting error:   Internal Error Failed to Initialize HAL!
[10:26] <ReWT_AxS> Any ideas?
[10:26] <Vixus> dfwlinuxguy, Which is what I should be using, according to the guide. It's also what I've used on all my other Ubuntu installs.
[10:26] <Vixus> So basically--- I'm not using my card
[10:26] <dfwlinuxguy> that is the best one to use
[10:26] <kuene> dfwlinuxguy, it does not work because help is a .directory or category i dont really understand this...
[10:27] <dirle> one of many other things I like about ubuntu (linux) is that I finaly get a quiet PC.. no more background running processes :)
[10:27] <pike_> fetus: see advanced section of first link
[10:27] <dirle> wanted to share that with you.. heh
[10:27] <dfwlinuxguy> vixus...try commenting out dri in xorg.conf and change it back to nvidia and restart X
[10:27] <ulaas> Vixus: ready?
[10:27] <Vixus> ulaas: I'll just follow this bit of advice from dfwlinuxguy
[10:27] <Vixus> then maybe
[10:27] <fetus> pike_: i'm using this https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/MinimalCD ... but need to know how to initiate server install once the cd boots up
[10:27] <ulaas> Vixus: take your time...
[10:28] <dfwlinuxguy> ulass..do you know what his problem is?
[10:28] <ulaas> dfwlinuxguy: no luck with prop. driver.?
[10:28] <xipietotec> anyone? the name of the program that auto-detects cameras?
[10:28] <pike_> fetus: oh, well you probably just need to type server at boot prompt but i never used that cd
[10:29] <Vixus> dfwlinuxguy, Section "DRI" \ Mode 0666 \ End Section?
[10:29] <fetus> pike_: i'm gonna try ... thats my thought also
[10:29] <feugan3333> Vixus: nv driver does not use 3d acceleration.
[10:29] <fetus> pike_: thanks bye
[10:29] <dfwlinuxguy> ulaas..he changed it to nv from nvidia because he couldn't get X going...I'm trying to help him get back nvidia
[10:29] <Vixus> dfwlinuxguy, Whoops, dpkg-reconfigure changed my driver to mesa
[10:29] <dfwlinuxguy> vixus...no not that one
[10:29] <stazi> found a solution: http://www.oreillynet.com/onlamp/blog/2006/10/ubuntu_edgy_install_frustratio.html
[10:29] <ulaas> dfwlinuxguy: i can see that.
[10:29] <Everflex> When i follow this guide: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BackupYourSystem, and back up from the tar file i made, will then EVERYTHING i did not include in the update be deleted, even though i make the update on top of a working system?
[10:30] <adaptr> Adam_G: login how - ssh ?
[10:30] <adaptr> sorry.... lagging here ;-)
[10:30] <dfwlinuxguy> vixus..under section module ---  Load    "dri"
[10:30] <Adam_G> adaptr, yes - that's okay :D
[10:30] <dirle> for all the admins here.. I am new at Ubuntu but don't have any adaptation problem as a extensive windows user.. anyway.. on my main problem of dual booting vista with ubuntu it seems I can't get around it with GRUB.. and the only safe way to do it is to use a floppy boot disk for ubuntu.. is what I will attend to do now.. I will post in the help forums about it when I will get a resolution regarding my specific case
[10:30] <Everflex> Like: if i excluded Desktop in the backup, will it then be deleted when i restore the backup?
[10:30] <psusi> aragorn_: you aren't running a custom kernel are you?
[10:30] <cfd90> Now that I'm on Edgy, where is a link to install Beryl on 64 bit edgy?
[10:30] <Vixus> dfwlinuxguy, It's not there
[10:30] <cfd90> I've been looking, and I can't find a good guide.
[10:31] <cfd90> All the repos are gone it seems that I've tried :|
[10:31] <aragorn_> psusi: I'm using the default generic kernel
[10:31] <dfwlinuxguy> vixus...when you do the dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg..besure to select either nv or nvidia..not mesa
[10:31] <bXi> cfd90: there is 1 guide with correct install commands and another one with good repositories
[10:31] <cfd90> Where is that? :P;
[10:31] <Vixus> dfwlinuxguy, I ran nvidia-xconfig again.
[10:31] <bXi> dunno
[10:31] <psusi> aragorn_: and you are sure that you downloaded the .deb from the bug report and dpkg -i it?
[10:31] <bXi> but i'll msg you the repos
[10:31] <cfd90> Ok, cool :)
[10:31] <Vixus> dfwlinuxguy, It's back to how it was but I want to make sure it doesn't blankscreen again
[10:31] <cfd90> Edgy 64 bit?
[10:31] <n2diy_> Does the MinimalCD install give you X?
[10:31] <Chucknorrislol> can someone help me get madwifi running? i tried extracting it but i got a bunch of errors, it told me it didn't want to overwrite previous files or something? although i was installing to a new directory...
[10:32] <dfwlinuxguy> vixus..that is for the nvidia driver..I haven't tried nvidia-xconfig before
[10:32] <xipietotec> anyone? the name of the program that auto-detects cameras?
[10:32] <Vixus> Well, it wouldn't let me do nvidia-glx-config
[10:32] <dfwlinuxguy> vixus dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg has always worked for me
[10:32] <pike_> xipietotec: webcams?
[10:33] <Vixus> dfwlinuxguy, hold on, let me
[10:33] <jerp> kuene, think with me here now;  If the only way to remove it is to uninstall it, isn't that removing it from the menu list?  And if it's removed, it also doesn't mean you can't re-install.
[10:33] <xipietotec> pike_: any camera, when I plugged in my old camera, this gui box came up and looked to auto-configure, my new camera is having some issues...and that box doesn't pop up
[10:33] <aragorn_> psusi: yes I'm sure! I used this deb dmraid_1.0.0.rc11-1_i386.deb
[10:33] <dfwlinuxguy> vixus...I have nvidia and the modules I have loaded are bitmap...ddc...dri...extmod...freetype...glx...int10...type1...vbe
[10:33] <psusi> aragorn_: that is not the right one... the one attached to the bug report is -13 not 11
[10:33] <dfwlinuxguy> dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg will ask which modules to load
[10:34] <cfd90> Does Edgy come with AIXGLX?
[10:34] <bXi> cfd90: got my message?
[10:34] <dfwlinuxguy> yes it does bXi
[10:34] <cfd90> No... :|
[10:34] <cfd90> Can you just write it out here?  Irssi seems to be having trouble
[10:34] <dfwlinuxguy> sorry cfd90
[10:34] <bXi> deb http://www.beerorkid.com/compiz edgy main-edgy main-edgy-amd64
[10:34] <bXi> deb http://media.blutkind.org/xgl/ edgy main-edgy main-edgy-amd64
[10:34] <bXi> those 2
[10:34] <xipietotec> I just need to know the name of that program, so I can troubleshoot
[10:34] <cfd90> Hmmm, I thought I tried them, but I'll try again
[10:35] <dfwlinuxguy> don't use compiz
[10:35] <dfwlinuxguy> use beryl instead
[10:35] <Chucknorrislol> can someone help me get madwifi running? i tried extracting it but i got a bunch of errors, it told me it didn't want to overwrite previous files or something? although i was installing to a new directory...
[10:35] <cfd90> Where are the Beryl things? I can't find any :P
[10:35] <bXi> those include beryl
[10:35] <cfd90> Ooh
[10:35] <levander> Does FireFox 2 in Edgy hang a lot for other people?
[10:35] <bXi> levander: not really
[10:35] <xipietotec> cfd90: join #ubuntu-xgl, berl is in the chanserv title
[10:35] <xipietotec> beryl
[10:35] <dfwlinuxguy> deb http://ubuntu.beryl-project.org/ edgy main ..in /etc/apt/sources.list
[10:36] <levander> bXi: maybe i'll install the one from backports and see if i have better luck
[10:36] <aragorn_> psusi: I only found -11 in https://bugs.launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/+source/dmraid/+bug/54246
[10:36] <kleftisx> hello.....how i can install Borland C++ or something similar with Borland C++ on Ubuntu?
[10:37] <levander> Also, I got a disk full error trying to download something with azureus.  I made empty space on the hard drive.  But, now when azureus starts up, it core dumps.
[10:37] <dfwlinuxguy> kleftisx...try eclipse ...eclipse.org
[10:37] <bXi> levander: are you running 32 bit or 64 bit
[10:37] <VrilutZa> kleftisx apt-get install build-essential
[10:37] <levander> I'm wondering if I can clear the state of the old file it was downloading, if it will stop core dumping, but I don't know how.
[10:37] <levander> bXi: 32 bit
[10:37] <bXi> levander: then my next suggestion is useless :)
[10:37] <psusi> aragorn_: look again.. .-13 is there... it's linked to in the last post
[10:38] <kleftisx> i can install it from terminal?
[10:38] <aragorn_> psusi: oooops now I try it ;)
[10:38] <tdd1984> guys i got a big problem I can get linux to boot up, alls im getting is the shell prompt
[10:38] <psusi> aragorn_: nevermind... not the last post... MY last post ;)
[10:39] <JebJoya> hey, my Ubuntu running laptop has suddenly stopped accessing the internet through it's PCMCIA card as of today - it is still claiming to be connected to the network, and the router is listing it as a client, but am having no access to the internet - another PC connecting wirelessly to the same router is getting access though.  My laptop was working as of last night, any suggestions of checks...
[10:39] <JebJoya> ...I can make to find out what has gone wrong?
[10:39] <psusi> aragorn_: err damnit... nevermind... that was a bad one too ;)
[10:39] <JebJoya> (apologies for the long post)
[10:39] <SambaNEWBIE> dwflinuxguy - any other ideas? The line doesn't exist in the .conf file?
[10:39] <dfwlinuxguy> kleftisx... you can do apt-cache search eclipse to find all the eclipse packages available to install..apt-get install pkgname will install it
[10:39] <Crazyl1nk> im have a sound/mic problem, for some reason programs such as Skype, or teamspeak says im either, Haveing problems with sound device(skype) or my mic and speakers are muted(teamspeak) is this a problem someone else has had, and can it be fixed?
[10:39] <Pelo> JebJoya,  have you tried the forum ?
[10:40] <dfwlinuxguy> sambanewbie..have you tried restarting samba?
[10:40] <kdjfs> can ntfs-3g change read/write access on edgy amd64?

[10:40] <dfwlinuxguy> /etc/init.d/samba stop|start
[10:40] <SambaNEWBIE> dwflinuxguy - I have typed smbd reload after each change to the .conf file.
[10:40] <Pelo> JebJoya,  I'm thinking exactly the reverse
[10:40] <aragorn_> psusi: I tried it some times ago (I'm Enrico Sardi on launchpad ) and it doesn't work for me...
[10:41] <aragorn_> psusi: it didn't populate my /dev/mapper
[10:41] <dfwlinuxguy> ok..what does your err log say when you try to log in?
[10:41] <JebJoya> Pelo: okeydokey, any suggestions on search terms?
[10:41] <psusi> aragorn_: yea... don't use the one I tried to modify
[10:41] <psusi> aragorn_: that was a failed experiment
[10:41] <Crazyl1nk> i have a question/problem
[10:41] <JebJoya> Pelo: the strange thing was that it was working up until last night, then stopped for no apparent reason
[10:41] <Pelo> JebJoya,  pmcia network off ,  , no wireless internet , etc
[10:42] <Pelo> JebJoya, could be an ip issue
[10:42] <levander> Can somebody put a "where to go" entry in ubotu?  Like, if you can't find your answer in #ubuntu, check ubuntuforums, the freenode channel for the application you are having trouble with if one exists, and the developers themself at their web site?  I just seem to type that out a lot when I'm in here.

[10:49] <dfwlinuxguy> sambanewbie...not sure why smbd reload shouldn't/wouldn't work?
[10:50] <SambaNEWBIE> dwflinuxguy - Thanks for everything. Usually the stupidist ones are the ones that take the longest to handle. I really appreciate all of your help.
[10:50] <dfwlinuxguy> sambanewbie...I just new that if that line wasn't in there and if samba was properly restarted it shouldn't give that error
[10:50] <dfwlinuxguy> sambanewbie...no problem..best wishes
[10:51] <mlalkaka> hi everyone
[10:51] <SambaNEWBIE> dwflinuxguy - if you ever get any more data on the smbd reload issue please post to linuxquestions.org

[10:52] <SambaNEWBIE> dwflinuxguy - thanks again - bye.
[10:52] <dfwlinuxguy> bye
[10:52] <ryanakca> how do I fix "hostname -f"? I currently get "hostname: Unknown host". "hostname" outputs "rkavanagh"
[10:52] <psusi> aragorn_: yea, you need to be using rc13
[10:52] <Arwen> is there a list of newly released/updated packages for edgy somewhere?
[10:52] <Lam_> i need a program to check to see if a hard drive is potentially failing
[10:52] <juraj> I'm using edgy eft. When I open the software sources dialog from synaptic I can choose a mirror, however I can't choose my country. It just lists united states
[10:52] <Lam_> suggestions?
[10:52] <juraj> where can I change my system's country?
[10:53] <Arwen> Lam_, stress testing a possibly failing hard drive could push it over the edge
[10:53] <Lam_> Arwen: what can i do then?
[10:53] <Arwen> Lam_, test it.... but make sure to backup
[10:53] <Crazyl1nk> can someone please help me?
[10:54] <dou213_> !ask
[10:54] <ubotu> Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[10:54] <shwag> I want to setup the Linked Tables feature of phpmyadmin, but the package installed with apt-get is missing the  create_tables.sql file that was suppose to be in scripts/
[10:54] <Stormx2> He did ask.
[10:54] <juraj> so can anyone help me? where to change my system's country?
[10:54] <Stormx2> Crazyl1nk: Tried posting a topic on the forums?
[10:55] <Stormx2> juraj: isn't it a setting in gnome?
[10:55] <aragorn_> psusi: you don't have a compiled version ready? ;)
[10:55] <Arwen> Lam_, are you *running* from this failing system?
[10:55] <Crazyl1nk> running though Forums to see if anyone has had same problem, i may have just fixed my teamspeak problems but skype is another story
[10:55] <juraj> well, I don't know where is that setting located so I can select mirrors for my country, in Synaptic
[10:55] <psusi> aragorn_: not for i386, I run amd64
[10:55] <JebJoya> Pelo: still having issues - nothing on the forums which seem to be referring to the specific issue i'm getting
[10:55] <Arwen> juraj, does your country have mirrors?
[10:56] <psusi> aragorn_: I'll see if I can get some pressure on to get proper binaries in the edgy-backports repository
[10:56] <juraj> yes it has, on the other installation of edgy it offers me mirrors for croatia
[10:56] <juraj> however on this installation I can select only for US
[10:56] <kritical> Can anyone recommend an open-source boot cd designed to test hardware?
[10:56] <psusi> or possibly just outright updated in the main repo, since the released one was so hosed
[10:56] <juraj> you know, the graphical dialog for setting up repositories
[10:57] <juraj> I don't know where it is set up so it thinks that I'm in US
[10:57] <dougsko> juraj: check out the man page for 'locale'
[10:57] <aragorn_> psusi: that would be wonderful :)
[10:58] <lazy> !
[10:58] <lazy>  ?
[10:58] <juraj> right, everything is set to en_US...
[10:58] <JebJoya> So, I guess I'll put this to anyone else - sony vaio laptop (2 yrs oldish), linksys pcmcia 802.11b wireless card (RTL8180), was accessing internet fine yesterday, suddenly stopped today for some reason, system thinks it's connected to the network, router thinks it's connected (listed on active clients), connection seems to go in little bursts of 1packet up+down every second or so when I try...
[10:58] <JebJoya> ...to do anything, but absolutely no internet (ping just dies)
[10:58] <lazy> ok
[10:58] <juraj> I still want to keep english in Gnome, just change it so I can select my mirror
[10:58] <Lam__> Arwen: i was. i have reason to believe my main drive is failing now. kde reports a malformatted error before breaking down completely and freezing on itself. my backup is on my secondary drive so it should all be ok
[10:58] <Lam__> Arwen: it just froze on me, so i'm on my laptop now
[10:59] <shwag> phpmyadmin is pretty out of date on ubuntu.
[10:59] <kritical> Can anyone recommend an open-source boot cd designed to test hardware?
[10:59] <juraj> I'm going to file a bug, as this is an annoyance in synaptic
[10:59] <Arwen> Lam_, have you forced an fsck? it might be a filesystem and not a hardware error

[10:59] <Music_Shuffle> juraj, what's a bug?
[10:59] <WizCraker> does ubuntu store the apache info in httpd.conf or someplace else?  i'm looking where I should put the virtualhost stuff at.
[10:59] <mlalkaka> has anyone been able to get sleep (suspend-to-ram) and hibernate (suspend-to-disk) working on edgy? when i press suspend on the log out menu, it just locks the screen; and when i unlock the screen, there's a message saying that supending failed
[10:59] <SneeRR> Hi! how to mount and write on reiser4 fs
[10:59] <SneeRR> ?
[10:59] <Lam__> Arwen: i haven't done anything. it was working perfectly fine, and then a i hear a verbal click from the tower before the system malformats on itself
[10:59] <juraj> /usr/bin/software-properties is only offering mirrors for currently selected locale
[11:00] <Arwen> Lam_, click? ok - your machine is dying - buy a new HDD
[11:00] <juraj> what if I want to select the other mirror? I need to mess with locales?
[11:00] <Lam__> Arwen: ok i suspected as much. do you know what the average lifespan of a hard drive by chance? my tower is about 5 years old now
[11:00] <SneeRR> Any ideas what I should install to use reiser4?
[11:00] <Arwen> Lam_, or... wait... the diagnostic app will be available from the manufacturer of your HD - an HD lasts between 3-10 years
[11:00] <dougsko> WizCraker: the apache config files should be somewhere like, /etc/apache2
[11:00] <lazy> on some ftp servers i can see that ISO images is differ by size...
[11:00] <aragorn_> psusi: and with .13 it might start at the boot?
[11:00] <lupine_85> Lam__: it should have an MTBF (mean time before failure) somewhere...
[11:01] <lazy> edgy
[11:01] <Music_Shuffle> Lam__, depends...this machine has a new HDD, but the othe rone runs fine...after 8 years...
[11:01] <Music_Shuffle> other one*
[11:01] <Arwen> SneeRR, reiser4progs and then get the patch from the reiser site
[11:01] <JebJoya> noone any ideas on the wireless issue?
[11:01] <Lam__> Arwen: i'll just buy a new drive. it's not like my main drive needs a whole lot of gigabytes since my secondary is the backup
[11:01] <SneeRR> Arwen Path is in deb format? What is the link of the site
[11:01] <Lam__> Arwen: thanks
[11:01] <Jary> Hello all. I am trying to install Ubuntu for my AMD athlon. Kernel loads, I get a few command that shows up on the screen, then I get ubuntu's logo in black and white, and nothing happens :(
[11:01] <Jary> Could anyone please help ?

[11:02] <Arwen> SneeRR, but to mount and use reiser... http://www.namesys.com/
[11:02] <blackflare> is there a command like ctrl alt delete for when the system locks up?
[11:03] <ubun> ctrl+alt+backspace
[11:03] <WizCraker> dougsko: does it matter which one I use?  there is apache2.conf httpd.conf ports.conf (this one is obvious of what it does)
[11:03] <SneeRR> Arwen thank you !!!
[11:03] <dougsko> WizCraker: apache2.conf is the right one, i believe. you should familiarize youself with all of those htough
[11:04] <dougsko> WizCraker: if you read though them, youll see what theyre for. theyre all commented
[11:04] <sjbrown> in ubuntu 6.10, when i Ctrl-N it shows me a dropdown of options, it doesn't do this in ubuntu 6.06
[11:04] <sjbrown> how do i turn this feature on?
[11:04] <blackflare> is there a way to reset the sounds settings to default?
[11:04] <nder> I want to install ubuntu over windows. It's asking how do I want to partition disk
[11:04] <WizCraker> dougsko: I briefly read through them, I was just making sure before I messed something up.
[11:04] <nder> clean ak disk option?
[11:04] <nder> all*
[11:05] <JebJoya> ooh, anyone know if my DHCP clients table listing the main pc (Fujitsu) as both <IP_ADDRESS> and ...101, with my laptop not being listed on the table (yet being given ...101) could be my issue (not an ubuntu issue i know, but if anyone has an idea, it'd be greatly appreciated)
[11:05] <Arwen> Lam_, you might try sticking your hdd in your freezer for around 30 min - might help or might pwn your hdd for good
[11:05] <dougsko> WizCraker: dont worry, you got it
[11:05] <carlo> ciao
[11:05] <JebJoya> however it's listing the MAC of my laptop card with the name of the other pc
[11:05] <carlo> ragazzi mi date qualche repository?
[11:06] <Music_Shuffle> !it
[11:06] <ubotu> Vai su #ubuntu-it o su #kubuntu-it se vuoi parlare in italiano, in questo canale usiamo solo l'inglese. Grazie!
[11:06] <mt3> Hi people
[11:07] <feugan3333> JebJoya: What command are you running to get this info. Could you post it?
[11:07] <mt3> I'm trying to switch my brother to Ubuntu 6.10 rather than buying him this ridiculous Windows Vista
[11:07] <weswh->  i have an HFS (macosx) partition that i want to get my data off of. when i mount it (even with uid=1000, read only) i can access the mount, but most of the folders have 'lock' icons on them. permission denied. if i access it with kdesu konqueror, i can't copy files to my drive. it says they do not exist. when i tried cp from a clean root shell, it says 'ommiting folder', and quits.
[11:07] <Music_Shuffle> mt3, shouldn't be that hard.
[11:07] <mt3> Only things he wants that he can't get native are World of Warcraft and Windows Live Messenger
[11:07] <Music_Shuffle> mt3, Windows Messenger...KMess.
[11:07] <weswh-> anyone have any ideas? i don't know if it is inheriting permissions from the macos system or what. it's an external firewire harddrive. when i was in there with kdesu i could play mp3s off of it and such. how can i play a file, but not copy the file? :/
[11:08] <mt3> I've heard that both of these can run under Ubuntu is this so?
[11:08] <JebJoya> fraid not, i'm using the main pc to get the info, my laptop (with ubuntu) is not able to connect properly - i'm just connecting to <IP_ADDRESS> through firefox and browsing the menus (sorry, lame i know :P)
[11:08] <feugan3333> mt3: Wine should be able to play wow
[11:08] <rem_> weswh -> cp -r
[11:08] <deep__> what was the command to count lines from an output?
[11:08] <Music_Shuffle> And WoW can be played, yes mt3.
[11:08] <pike_> mt3: wow works with cedega for each release ive heard
[11:08] <mt3> He wants the proper Windows Live Messenger though. He wants to be able to use webcam, MSN games, emoticons, all that crap
[11:08] <weswh-> rem - even if i mounted with -r?
[11:08] <dfwlinuxguy> mt3 gaim is better than msn
[11:08] <Music_Shuffle> Yes it is better.
[11:08] <nder> can anyone help me? what do I choose? clean entire disk?
[11:09] <tx22> Guys this has nothing to do with ubuntu, but I need to know how paypal works. my friend wants to pay me and I said i have paypal ( i use ebay) but i don't know where/how he does it
[11:09] <rem_> -r means recursive..so it will copy the content of the folder ..
[11:09] <Music_Shuffle> nder, why clean the entire disk again?
[11:09] <mt3> Does it support custom emoticons, webcam, msn ames, etc.
[11:09] <ahaller> how can i turn bluetooth/wifi on and of to save battery power?
[11:09] <oslo> does someone success to use gmailfs ??
[11:09] <Music_Shuffle> mt3, yes, yes, yes.
[11:09] <nder> install linux over windows
[11:09] <dfwlinuxguy> weswh- use a terminal to check the permissions of the files on the external drive
[11:09] <mc__> tx22: please ask that in #ubuntu-offtopic
[11:09] <somerville32> tx22: See http://paypal.com for help on using paypal.
[11:09] <deep__> what was the command to count lines from an output?
[11:09] <chable> anyone knows how ti fix a bug in horde ?
[11:09] <chable> to* fix
[11:09] <mt3> Ok then I'll set him up this weekend and we can see what happens
[11:09] <Music_Shuffle> !dualboot | nder
[11:09] <ubotu> nder: Dual boot instructions:  https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WindowsDualBootHowTo (x86/AMD64) - https://wiki.ubuntu.com/YabootConfigurationForMacintoshPowerPCsDualBoot (Macintosh)
[11:09] <feugan3333> JebJoya: I don't really understand you problem. If you like you can pm me
[11:09] <weswh-> dfwlinuxguy: what is that command?
[11:09] <rem_> cp -r -v if you want details on what its copying while its copying ..
[11:09] <mt3> On 6.10 Gaim comes as standard right? and OpenOffice?
[11:10] <nder> but I want just linux running
[11:10] <Music_Shuffle> mt3, yeah. And on 6.01 actually. OO requires install I think.
[11:10] <dfwlinuxguy> weswh- ls -al /media/whatever
[11:10] <Music_Shuffle> nder, it...is running then.
[11:10] <dfwlinuxguy> df will tell you where it's mounted
[11:10] <Music_Shuffle> nder, oh, you mean no windows?
[11:10] <Chucknorrislol> ubuntu refuses to recognize my wireless card.... what can i do? i'm using xubuntu edgy and i have a TEW-441PC card (atheros chipset)
[11:10] <nder> yes
[11:10] <feugan3333> mt3: OO is standard but not gaim
[11:10] <JebJoya> oh god, i've found the problem
[11:10] <Music_Shuffle> nder, then on the partition editor just select 'Erase entire' or whatever the wording is.
[11:10] <JebJoya> and what a surprise, it wasn't linux at fault
[11:10] <JebJoya> :)
[11:11] <nder> ok thank you
[11:11] <mt3> Ok is Gaim easily added ont he add/remove apps thing? or do I need to download it and compile?
[11:11] <Lam__> i'm pretty sure that it's my main drive, but just to make sure, kde isn't suppose to crash even if your secondary drive (the one without kde installed on it) fails, right?  i assumed it's my main drive because kde crashed when i heard the click
[11:11] <feugan3333> mt3: It gets installed via a package manager
[11:11] <mt3> Also, anyone know if the Netgear WG311 is supported out of the box under 6.10? I know it wasn't under 5.10.
[11:11] <Shaba1> folks I am a windows systems admin
[11:11] <feugan3333> mt3: very easily
[11:11] <Music_Shuffle> feugan3333, it does come default >.>
[11:11] <Arwen> !ndiswrapper | Chucknorrislol
[11:11] <ubotu> Chucknorrislol: Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs
[11:11] <ChrisBradley> How do I launch a program as another user from Gnome?
[11:11] <mt3> feugan3333: Ok then I should be fine getting that setup
[11:11] <mt3> Thanks
[11:11] <cybernet> wazz up !!!
[11:12] <dougsko> mt3: search for it in synaptic, or just type 'sudo aptget install gaim'
[11:12] <dfwlinuxguy> weswh - chmod 0777 /media/whatever should allow you to read/write the files
[11:12] <Chucknorrislol> i've been pouring over that link for hours now, it's not helping me
[11:12] <deep__> what was the command to count lines from an output?
[11:12] <mt3> Netgear WG311 wifi card supported out the box anyone know?
[11:12] <weswh-> dfwlinuxguy: "501" is the owner. (when i look at the folder under konqueror, it reports as a "locked folder" (though as root i can see the contents and execute them)
[11:12] <Chucknorrislol> i've also used ndiswrapper for the windows XP driver i got on the card's CD, but it said the driver is invalid
[11:12] <ahaller> mt3: Gaim and Openoffice are installed by default
[11:12] <Shaba1> I know you can enable automatic login with gnome.
[11:12] <rem_> deep wc -l ... ?!
[11:12] <feugan3333> Music_Shuffle: it is under the optional section.
[11:12] <dfwlinuxguy> weswh - of course you will have to use sudo if you aren't root
[11:12] <deep__> okay, thanx.
[11:12] <deep__> :D
[11:12] <dfwlinuxguy> weswh - sudo chmod 0777 /media/whatever should allow you to read/write the files
[11:12] <Shaba1> How does one get that to query and authenticate to a AD server?
[11:12] <weswh-> dfwlinuxguy: know what 501 is? and, if i do the chmod, is that permanent on the drive, or only for this mount?
[11:13] <JebJoya> wow - what a surprise - problem fixed and it wasn't linux at fault :)
[11:13] <JebJoya> just a very silly router
[11:13] <dfwlinuxguy> weswh - only for that mount!
[11:13] <mt3> Anyone?
[11:13] <Music_Shuffle> feugan3333, its definitely default. I always straight click through, and I have it every time.
[11:13] <rem_> weswh do a chmod -R 777 on the folder as root ..
[11:13] <dfwlinuxguy> weswh - sudo chown yourusername:yourusername /media/whatever should work too
[11:13] <JebJoya> thanks everyone for your help
[11:13] <feugan3333> Music_Shuffle: Ok I'll take your word for it :-)
[11:13] <Music_Shuffle> ^_^

[11:13] <Chucknorrislol> anyone? this is a newbie problem, i'm sure if you guys take two min you can solve my problem :(
[11:13] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about dualmonitor - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[11:14] <dfwlinuxguy> weswh - 501 is the unix user on whatever unix system you used to copy the files onto the drive
[11:14] <dfwlinuxguy> weswh - 501 probably doesn't exist on your ubuntu system
[11:14] <GeneralZarkawi> !ask
[11:14] <ubotu> Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[11:14] <feugan3333> Chucknorrislol: Not if we don't know what your problem is.
[11:14] <weswh-> dfwlinuxguy: i see, yeah it was mac
[11:14] <InsertNickHere> ... Does anyone in here know of a good site where you learn how to make the second screen show something different from what's on the first one?

[11:17] <Music_Shuffle> GeneralZarkawi, deep breaths much? He might just be lost as to what PB was ;p
[11:17] <somerville32> !caps | GeneralZarkawi
[11:17] <ubotu> GeneralZarkawi: PLEASE DON'T SHOUT! We can read lowercase too.
[11:17] <dfwlinuxguy> chucknorrislol...that means the driver for your wireless card is not loaded
[11:17] <uMISTA> how can i make all *.exe files have certin icons?
[11:17] <feugan3333> Chucknorrislol: It contains the atheros driver

[11:17] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about mime - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[11:17] <GeneralZarkawi> I wanted to shout on that one ;)
[11:17] <pike_> Chucknorrislol: installs linux restricted package for your kernel another way is sudo apt-get isntall linux-restricted-modules-$(uname -r)
[11:18] <dfwlinuxguy> chucknorrislol...you will have to load it before you can go any farther
[11:18] <uMISTA> !mine

[11:18] <uMISTA> not not working
[11:18] <cypher1> ahh operapluginwrap is taking ~90% of CPU
[11:18] <feugan3333> lol
[11:18] <Chucknorrislol> dfwlinuxguy: ok, how do i do that?
[11:18] <dfwlinuxguy> do you know that your card is supported?
[11:18] <pike_> Chucknorrislol:  the `` or $() designate a terminal command the `` are not quotes but tildes i think theyre called
[11:19] <Chucknorrislol> it seems like my card is unrecognized so far... nothing i run says it recognizes my card
[11:19] <feugan3333> Chucknorrislol: Install the package pike told you to.
[11:19] <Chucknorrislol> i'm doing that right now ^_^
[11:20] <nder> what security programs should I use in ubuntu?
[11:20] <dfwlinuxguy> madwifi?
[11:20] <Chucknorrislol> ah... i'm not sure
[11:20] <Chucknorrislol> i've heard stuff about madwifi
[11:20] <GeneralZarkawi> nder, security programs?
[11:20] <Arwen> nder, um.... there's a lot of security programs
[11:20] <feugan3333> nder: depends on what you want to do.
[11:21] <nder> ANTIVIRUS
[11:21] <nder> firewall
[11:21] <GeneralZarkawi> nder, HAHAHAHAAH
[11:21] <Chucknorrislol> i tried wrapping the windows XP driver that came on my card's installation CD... it said it was invalid
[11:21] <dfwlinuxguy> what package did he tell you to install?
[11:21] <nder> anti-spyware
[11:21] <Arwen> nder, what do you do? ubuntu is secure out of the box... av is generally unnecessary.... and there's no such thing as linux spyware
[11:21] <dfwlinuxguy> did you use ndiswrapper to do that?
[11:21] <nder> oh thanx sorry I'm noob:P
[11:21] <Chucknorrislol> pike: package installed
[11:22] <feugan3333> Arwen: Ubuntu does not come with a firewall installed, so how can it be secure out of the box?
[11:22] <beibei> how can I install slype? I have only got ubuntu last night
[11:22] <Arwen> feugan3333, err.... it does
[11:22] <Arwen> feugan3333, *iptables*
[11:22] <lymz> hi, for some reason the flash plugin in firefox doesn't display any fonts
[11:22] <GeneralZarkawi> feugan3333, personal firewalls don't make a distribution safer
[11:22] <Kingsqueak> also if you have nothing to connect *to* you have nothing to firewall anyway
[11:22] <Arwen> nder, if you have broadband - buy yourself a router with nat+spi
[11:22] <feugan3333> Arwen: Yes but it is allow all, which is the same as no firewall
[11:22] <pike_> Chucknorrislol: might be all you need to do.  reboot might be easiest thing now
[11:22] <dfwlinuxguy> feugan3333...do a netstat -a | grep LISTEN that will tell you all the ports that are open
[11:22] <Arwen> feugan3333, incorrect, ubuntu is preconfigured to disallow all inbound
[11:22] <nuked_omen> i use linux because i don't want to install antivirus, antispyware, antimaleware just to be able to use a computer securely
[11:22] <Chucknorrislol> ok. if it doesn't work i guess i'll be back
[11:23] <Arwen> feugan3333, try iptables -L
[11:23] <pike_> good luck :)
[11:23] <feugan3333> BS!
[11:23] <Tobyman> Bye All and once again Thx a lot for your help

[11:23] <Galga> 6.06 vs 6.10 ?
[11:23] <Shaba1> I did ubotu and did not get and answer.
[11:23] <feugan3333> Arwen: I had to set up my own rules
[11:23] <ahaller> lymz, maybe the fonts are not embedded in the flashmovie. try installing mscorefonts.
[11:24] <beibei> how can I install Skype on UBUNTU
[11:24] <beibei> ?
[11:24] <lymz> ahaller: thanks, will try
[11:24] <dfwlinuxguy> weswh...that should get you going
[11:24] <JairunCaloth> Hey guys, I'm havnig a little trouble here. When I boot into Xubuntu for some reason right after X starts the processor is at 100% and stays there until I ctrl+ alt + backspace to restart it. I've also been having performance issues with games. I just updated the video driver, however that did not fix the problem.
[11:24] <Arwen> feugan3333, maybe if you need open ports.... I installed firestarter to deal with that... but it's below par
[11:24] <Mindcat> i have installed ubuntu (6.10) with alternate, since with desktop livecd xorg didn't work
[11:24] <Arwen> JairunCaloth, video card? have you adjusted your xorg.conf at all?
[11:25] <Galga> ubuntu 6.06 vs 6.10 ? internal modem support ?
[11:25] <Arwen> Galga, nope
[11:25] <Music_Shuffle> JairunCaloth, how long does it hang at that %?
[11:25] <feugan3333> Arwen: Maybe firestarter added the deny all, cause the default is allow all.
[11:25] <weswh-> dfwlinuxguy: hmm. at a first glance i don't seem to be able to access it through my standard user still. ls -al says they are still 501 501
[11:25] <Mindcat> i managed to do de text installation, but now when i start ubuntu i get a black screen
[11:25] <Arwen> Galga, even hardware internals
[11:25] <Galga> :(
[11:25] <Arwen> feugan3333, incorrect
[11:25] <JairunCaloth> Arwen, I was doing some stuff with dual moniters, but I did change back to my previous xorg.conf
[11:25] <Arwen> !firewall
[11:25] <ubotu> Ubuntu, like any other linux distribution, has firewall capabilities built-in. The firewall is managed using the 'iptables' command (see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/IptablesHowTo), or GUI applications such as Firestarter (Gnome) or Guarddog (KDE).
[11:25] <JairunCaloth> Music: until I restart the x server
