[12:06] <hyperactivecrond> gus321Blastoff, try monarch they do linux
[12:06] <hyperactivecrond> Enselic``, it's not rpm's fault. it's yum's OCD.

[12:07] <Demolitio> i have a big problem... i tried to install xgl, on the latest edgy,  came up with an error saying that the files were no found, and crashed xserver. i removed the entries i made in gdm.conf_custom and Xsession, and now i can't log in to my default profile. im talking to you guys through the root account, and have less administration options in gnome than i did with the account that is crashing. suggestions? am i screwed?
[12:08] <Demolitio> it just crashes the xsession literally in 2 seconds.
[12:08] <hyperactivecrond> Demolitio, backup all the data in /home/<yourusernamehere> and delete the account. rm -r /home/<username> and re-create the account
[12:08] <hyperactivecrond> ^^ my opinion may not work
[12:08] <Boosted> qeed, I can't find the plugin dir, could it be called anything else :(
[12:08] <I-kido> Are the Linux-restricted* packages necessary when I want to use Nvidia 1.0.9xxx ?
[12:08] <DBFT> hey - Im trying to run the jarsigner (java) - but when i type jarsigner DSigner.jar DBFT it just says jarsigner invalid command
[12:09] <DBFT> what do i need to write?
[12:09] <Demolitio> @ hyperactivecrond will the new account i make give me access again to the synaptic package manager?
[12:10] <hyperactivecrond> Demolitio, i think you have to add your user to the admin group idk which group this is though..
[12:10] <oreth> macd: i'm overwhelmed at the questions in here. I usually feel like I can help, but I'm so lost :P
[12:10] <qeed> Boosted, don't know
[12:10] <Demolitio> hmm thanks.
[12:10] <hyperactivecrond> Demolitio, from a terminal: cd /home/<yourusername>
[12:10] <hyperactivecrond> ls -la
[12:10] <Boosted> qeed, hold on, trying something :)
[12:10] <hyperactivecrond> and pastebin the output
[12:10] <DBFT> arghh why wont "jarsigner" work in terminal!??
[12:10] <Demolitio> thanks... gtg someone is honking his horn at me. :P later all.
[12:11] <Enselic``> DBFT: do you have it installed?
[12:11] <DBFT> (nb: there is a file called jarsigner in the directory)
[12:11] <I-kido> Are the Linux-restricted* packages necessary when I want to use Nvidia 1.0.9xxx ?  Just a yes or No
[12:11] <Enselic``> DBFT: make sure its executable
[12:11] <DBFT> it is :|
[12:11] <Enselic``> DBFT: and prefix it with ./
[12:11] <DBFT> ok that worked cheers
[12:11] <Enselic``> DBFT:    ./jarsigner stuff stuff
[12:11] <DBFT> why did that work btw?
[12:11] <Enselic``> DBFT: Unix needs paths to executables
[12:12] <Enselic``> DBFT: or soemthing like that :P
[12:12] <DBFT> lol thanks then :)
[12:12] <econobeing> any tips to get my koss cs-95 mic to work on my dell laptop?

[12:14] <Ami1> I have a Thinkpad R50e.
[12:15] <Ami1> When I ran Ubuntu (6.10) from the CD the sound worked fine.
[12:15] <Ami1> I'm not sure if it worked or not after I've installed.
[12:15] <Enselic``> Ami1: have you looked here?:
[12:15] <Ami1> But now it doesn't...
[12:15] <Enselic``> !sound | Ami1
[12:15] <ubotu> Ami1: If you're having problems with sound, first ensure ALSA is selected, by double clicking on the volume control, then File -> Change Device (ALSA Mixer). If that fails, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Sound - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting - http://alsa.opensrc.org/index.php?page=DmixPlugin - For playing audio files, see !Players and !MP3

[12:18] <royel> My gateway/fireway (ubuntu 6.06 server) is throttling my bandwidth to clients, I should get close to 3MB/s down but it is choking me to around 1-1.2MB/s, I have tested extensively, an it is a problem within the server, an I replaced all the nics just earlier today. Any clues?
[12:18] <tracy> pretty much all of it. ive never compiled anything by myself. im new at trying to do this all on my own.
[12:18] <trashbat> MSG cryedwolf <safe>
[12:18] <BreakDecks> How do I get OSS to run under Ubuntu 6.10?  I have installed it, but it just causes my other sound drivers to stop working.
[12:18] <Enselic``> tracy: well, what for example
[12:18] <Proghead> hyperactivecrond I enter my password and it wrote nothing, so should it have worked? I don't see it more but maybe Im searching at the wrong place, since I've installed Ubuntu today hehe

[12:19] <savvas> how do i remove: Translation-en_US from the apt sources when it tries to update ?
[12:19] <hyperactivecrond> Proghead, cd /mnt && ls

[12:38] <Proghead> royel it says to write fdisk /dev/(name of the device) so it should be fdisk /dev/hdb but it doesn't work
[12:38] <Enselic``> bjornolai: you seem to have no EEID configured, set one in System -> Admin -> Networking

[12:39] <royel> Proghead: you sure it's /dev/hdb?
[12:39] <Proghead> royel but it doesn't work with hda neither so im probably forgetting something
[12:39] <Enselic``> bjornolai: an EEID? you need to match the EEID with the one the router uses

[12:40] <andy753422> I remember once seeing a applet for gnome-panel that was basically an input box, where you could type a shell command and it would be run. Does anyone know where I can find something like that?
[12:40] <colbert> I have installed Ubuntu 6.1, and upon boot it says "Error Loading Operating System." I installed it on a IDE slave drive, formatting it during install. I have Vista installed on a SATA which i normally boot to.
[12:40] <royel> mixandgo: dont think you can suspend in a shell
[12:40] <bjornolai> Enselic`` ok. I'll have to wait till i get to my uni then
[12:40] <mixandgo> royel, why not ?
[12:41] <matason> How do I control the size of desktop icons?
[12:41] <Wuilliam> colbert: do you have the same problem????? windows runs good, but isntall ubuntu and never run

[12:41] <EnsignRedshirt> andy753422: In dapper, you can add a "Run Application" thingy.  But I seem to recall reading that it was taken out of edgy?
[12:42] <matason> I am using 6.06

[12:42] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about drivers - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[12:42] <electricenergy> Enselic``: Yes, it is configured in xorg.conf, but I must have screwed up somewhere. I'm not really sure where to look from here
[12:42] <quaal> royel, ah.. bummer
[12:42] <quaal> royel, thankyou
[12:42] <Proghead> royel thanks, so it's ntfs
[12:42] <andy753422> EnsignRedshirt: that's probably what I was thinking of, but I cant find it, any clue where to get it from?
[12:42] <Enselic``> electricenergy: did you follow some guide?
[12:42] <royel> Proghead: :)
[12:42] <EnsignRedshirt> andy753422: No clue.  I am using dapper.
[12:43] <Enselic``> electricenergy: if you google for it, there probably is a sample xorg.conf for your card. That's what I'd check out if I were in your position at lest
[12:43] <kevin110> Newb Question: What's the difference between XGL and AIXGL?
[12:43] <electricenergy> Enselic``: Yes, this one; http://www.ublug.org/ubuntu/twinview/twinview-howto-breezy.html
[12:43] <halkonst> Come on guys I need my internets. Please check the thread at http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=364916 and please tell me if you have any idea of how to fix it.

[12:43] <Wuilliam> well, the ppl cant help me, all are bussy
[12:43] <Enselic``> kevin110: and development model
[12:44] <kevin110> Is AIXGL ATI?

[12:44] <kevin110> Thanks.
[12:44] <electricenergy> Enselic``: actually, that guide is using the same card that I have
[12:44] <kevin110> Also, when I enter the gnome terminal and try to run sudo apt-get, it asks for a password. When I try to type it in, it doesn't recognize my keystroke.
[12:45] <Enselic``> electricenergy: sweet, then doublecheck it again to make sure you didnt accidentaly made a mistake
[12:45] <Enselic``> kevin110: it does, but it doesnt say it
[12:45] <kevin110> Thanks Enselic.
[12:45] <Enselic``> kevin110: np :d
[12:46] <colbert> Can someone please help? I have installed Ubuntu 6.1, and upon boot it says "Error Loading Operating System." I installed it on a IDE slave drive, formatting it during install. I have Vista installed on a SATA which i normally boot to.
[12:46] <Proghead> royel do you know how I can acess it then (I'll search more if you don't, but live help is the best hehe)
[12:46] <electricenergy> Enselic``: the only differences are, I don't have the BusID under "Device" and I don't know if the horizontal refresh rate is correct. how would I find those out?
[12:47] <klick> Hey all, how can i tell my system to do sudo setkeycodes 6c 203 as soon as i boot up
[12:47] <Enselic``> electricenergy: BusID:   lshw
[12:47] <Enselic``> electricenergy: refreshrate should be either in the manual or at the back of the monitor
[12:47] <royel> Proghead: since it's ntfs, reading is easy, but if you need to write then you'll have to use ntfs-3g an it's still experimental
[12:47] <halkonst> colbert. what else can you do other than reinstall? try a different release maybe. 6.06 or 6.10
[12:47] <Enselic``> electricenergy: in the worst case you could call the manufacturer analogly
[12:48] <colbert> halkonst: So it is likely a version being incompatible for me?
[12:48] <royel> Proghead: try this for read access for now: sudo mkdir /mnt/ntfs

[12:49] <oreth> how do I check the IP of my machine?
[12:49] <halkonst> colbert I don't know at all, I have never used 6.1. It just seems like if you can't even boot your OS, that particular install is beyond rescue
[12:49] <electricenergy> Enselic``: Thanks, I never thought of that. one more question. IF I go to change the resolution graphically, I have all the expected choices for resolution.... but only 75mhz for the refresh rate. Shouldn't I be able to select 60 atleast? whats going on there?

[12:50] <oreth> where's the printer wizard?
[12:50] <kevin110> It's still confusing to me. How do I know which is for my PC? (Referring to XGL vs. AIXGL)
[12:50] <_Thomas> Grub fails to find any devices (when making several md-devices, without lvm), and lilo doesn't find anything at all
[12:50] <cpk1> lies!

[12:51] <_Thomas> what are the requirements of using the software raid1-installation procedure of ubuntu?
[12:51] <Proghead> royel it says that I should specify the kind of file (maybe my translation isn't exact hehe)
[12:51] <Enselic``> electricenergy: X probes the monitors for supported resolutions and refreshrates too iir
[12:51] <_Thomas> (I'm installing to sata)
[12:51] <_Thomas> Do the SATA-drives need to be on the motherboard?  (as part of the chipset)?
[12:52] <electricenergy> Enselic``: Well I know that both the monitors can support 60hz, so shouldn't that be there?
[12:52] <vmlemon> Does Ubuntu support SPARC?
[12:52] <`Matir> vmlemon, yes
[12:52] <royel> Proghead: my mistake, try: sudo mount /dev/hdb /mnt/ntfs -t ntfs -r
[12:52] <Enselic``> electricenergy: if the xorg.conf confs them for 60 Hz, then yeah. You can provide ModeLine:s manually if the monitors are evil

[01:14] <EnsignRedshirt> oreth: It is probably not quite the same in dapper or edgy.  The standard answer is usually "use samba", but I don't think that is necessary.
[01:14] <bimberi> oreth: sorry, i haven't been tracking your issue, i just saw that question (where is gnome control)
[01:14] <raygold> does ubuntu support full disk encryption?
[01:14] <halkonst> Enselic:
[01:14] <Frogzoo> raygold: yes
[01:14] <Enselic``> halkonst: if you can, it means something is funnay with your DNS servers
[01:14] <UdontKnow> raygold: linux supports. then ubuntu does in a way or another, even if by hand
[01:14] <royel> Proghead: oh, might need something like this: mount -t ntfs /dev/hdb1 /mnt/ntfs
[01:14] <raygold> hm
[01:14] <smallears69> anyone know what to do with my problem
[01:15] <oreth> ensign: ok. samba. damn, i'm so confused
[01:15] <lgc> Does anyone know what do I have to install in order to be able to talk and listen through IM?
[01:15] <raygold> do i need to learn dos to do that?
[01:15] <UdontKnow> raygold: but you need to boot from something unencrypted :) maybe a partition, a cd or a pendrive?
[01:15] <Enselic``> smallears69: what does it say and when
[01:15] <oreth> I know samba is the filesharing for windows.
[01:15] <royel> Proghead: are there multiple partitions on this disk?
[01:15] <bimberi> oreth: sec, i'm checking the backscroll
[01:15] <halkonst> I'll vanish for a few to try it out. what is <IP_ADDRESS> anyway?
[01:15] <Enselic``> halkonst: www.sunet.se
[01:15] <Enselic``> halkonst: I gtg
[01:16] <mindstate> im in dying need of help, my gnome panels have disappeared i've no idea how to get them back..XFCE panels still work, but i cant see any panels on my gnome ..any ideas?
[01:16] <smallears69> dont remember but it says somthing like failed ot boot off cd rom ide device. this happens pretty much right away
[01:16] <Frogzoo> smallears69: you should try passing the option 'acpi=off' from the install - hit F6 - & edit the kernel line to add that
[01:16] <Enselic``> halkonst: if it fails, make sure you have valid/online DNS servers
[01:16] <oreth> i've got this open: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/NetworkPrintingFromWinXP
[01:16] <halkonst> thanks for your help
[01:16] <EnsignRedshirt> oreth: The main point of that page is to enable "browsing" in cups on the computer to which the printer is attached, and to configure the permissions so that other computers on your network can use it.
[01:16] <bimberi> oreth: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/NetworkPrintingFromWinXP
[01:16] <halkonst> my dns work in windows
[01:16] <halkonst> same servers
[01:16] <Frogzoo> mindstate: terminal -> run gnome-panel
[01:16] <bimberi> oreth: snap :)
[01:16] <oreth> but, in the instructions, it says to set port to 631, I don't have that line in there.
[01:16] <Enselic``> halkonst: I see. Well this sure appears to be weird
[01:16] <oreth> i don't know where to put it.
[01:17] <halkonst> you're telling me
[01:17] <Enselic``> halkonst: does sudo dhclient eth1/0 give you a new IP?
[01:17] <oreth> I don't know where to set the tcp port
[01:17] <mindstate> Frogzoo: Frogzoo ..i tried to install this crappy compiz + xgl script and it totally screwed things up.. i hope that works
[01:17] <Enselic``> halkonst: or is it manually?
[01:17] <Proghead> royel okay well, I had to connect on the root and it haven't write anything after the command, so maybe it worked, Ill check that, and there's only one partition
[01:17] <smallears69> the screen is black and then this message pops up failed boot off cd rom ide device when do i push f
[01:17] <EnsignRedshirt> oreth: The wiki tells you (roughly) where to put the line 'Port 631'
[01:17] <smallears69> opps f6
[01:17] <Enselic``> halkonst: If you get an IP through DHCP, that means it really should work
[01:17] <ScarT> Can i avoid being hacked by the fbi, if I use ubuntu?
[01:17] <bimberi> oreth: which file are you looking in?
[01:18] <oreth> right.. on line 420. I only have 77 lines in that file
[01:18] <royel> Proghead: cd /mnt/ntfs an see what it looks like
[01:18] <halkonst> the ip is defined manully. dhclient didn't do much
[01:18] <mindstate> Frogzoo: i cant even get to a Terminal to type that command, when i try from tty1 it tells me unable to open display
[01:18] <halkonst> I have a static ip from my ISP
[01:18] <oreth> bimb: /etc/cups/cupsd.conf
[01:18] <royel> Proghead: ls -l /mnt/ntfs
[01:18] <whonicca> how can i mount an iso file as a drive?
[01:18] <whonicca> is it possible?
[01:18] <Enselic``> halkonst: then you need to make sure the IP is correct, including the netmask
[01:18] <Frogzoo> smallears69: cold start - hit F6 when text appears
[01:18] <jrib> !iso | whonicca
[01:18] <ubotu> whonicca: To mount an ISO disc image, type "sudo mount -o loop my.iso <mountpoint>" There is a list of useful cd image conversion tools at http://wiki.linuxquestions.org/wiki/CD_Image_Conversion Always verify the ISO using !MD5 before burning. Burning .iso files: see !burn
[01:18] <Dextorion> nighty
[01:18] <halkonst> they are. atleast in the /etc/network/interfaces
[01:18] <lgc> Anyone knows about messaging clients?
[01:18] <halkonst> and the graphical network settings
[01:18] <EnsignRedshirt> oreth: Was 'right.. on line...' in response to me?
[01:18] <svu__> Is there any trick to make nm-applet run without doing sudo in console?
[01:18] <bimberi> oreth: edgy? dapper?
[01:18] <ScarT> Can i save my cp securely on ubuntu?
[01:18] <Frogzoo> mindstate: DISPLAY=:0.0 gnome-panel
[01:18] <ScarT> Can i save my cp securely on ubuntu?
[01:19] <oreth> 6.10
[01:19] <oreth> which ever that one is :P
[01:19] <atomiku> I need a good alarm program for ubuntu, one that lets you have an MP3 as the alarm tone. Any suggestions?
[01:19] <jrib> ScarT: your "cp"?  what is that?
[01:19] <Frogzoo> ScarT: no spamming, plskthx
[01:19] <atomiku> cp = child porn
[01:19] <oreth> ensign: i believe so
[01:19] <royel> Proghead: you might have to do that as sudo
[01:19] <atomiku> ScarT: cp can be securely saved
[01:19] <oreth> atomiku = /b/tard? :P
[01:19] <ryan_> i just want to connect to my router, why is this so hard
[01:19] <Proghead> royel nice it worked, how do I open the stuff on it (like music)
[01:19] <rb007> ok.. the trick with beagle is to add a custom application launcher for beagle-search -- there was no item added to my menu when I installed it.
[01:19] <atomiku> oreth: ;)
[01:19] <atomiku> you?
[01:19] <oreth> \m/
[01:19] <mindstate> Frogzoo: your rock dude
[01:19] <atomiku> ill take that as a yes
[01:19] <mindstate> you*
[01:19] <oreth> only when my wife isn't around, haha
[01:19] <mindstate> lol
[01:19] <Frogzoo> mindstate: yw
[01:20] <Enselic``> halkonst: anyway, gtg, good luck
[01:20] <oreth> she hates /b/ and all that is associated with it
[01:20] <mindstate> Frogzoo: it gave me a dbus error though when i loaded it that way
[01:20] <atomiku> /b/ on ubuntu = win
[01:20] <halkonst> thanks
[01:20] <atomiku> cause its all smotoh
[01:20] <atomiku> all the fonts n crap, yo
[01:20] <atomiku> lol
[01:20] <atomiku> *smooth
[01:20] <EnsignRedshirt> oreth: OK. You are using the NetworkPrintingFromWinXP wiki page?
[01:20] <Gin> should I start gdm if I'm using xubuntu?
[01:20] <oreth> yeah
[01:20] <atomiku> I need a good alarm program for ubuntu, one that lets you have an MP3 as the alarm tone. Any suggestions?
[01:21] <atomiku> AND IT MUST NOT FAIL OTHERWISE I WILL FAIL
[01:21] <EnsignRedshirt> oreth: Always use a nick. It is too crowded in here not to.
[01:21] <EnsignRedshirt> oreth: You can type just Ensi and then hit tab.
[01:21] <lgc> Anyone knows about messaging clients?
[01:21] <oreth> EnsignRedshirt: yeah. I forgot about auto-complete
[01:21] <smallears69> Frogzoo: i hit f6 right at boot u. the installer does not even start
[01:22] <oreth> EnsignRedshirt: Any idea on my problem? :P
[01:22] <Frogzoo> smallears69: you don't even get to the install menu?
[01:22] <EnsignRedshirt> oreth: How much have to done so far?
[01:22] <Frogzoo> mindstate: something's sick - dunno, restart?
[01:22] <Talaman> hello, getting start-up screen error
[01:22] <oreth> i've edited the cupsd.conf, up to the point of setting the port
[01:22] <atomiku> Talaman: fix it
[01:22] <oreth> er..
[01:22] <oreth> EnsignRedshirt: I've edited the cupsd.conf but haven't set the port. Can't figure out where to
[01:22] <Talaman> that is why i am here
[01:22] <atomiku> No seriously, what error it is?
[01:23] <mindstate> Frogzoo: ill try that, also..do u know how i can edit the GDM login screen. ive got something in there called "foo" that i want to get rid of
[01:23] <Talaman> oi
[01:23] <Talaman> have to reboot to see it again
[01:23] <javadots> EnsignRedshirt: I've done a lot and I can't figure out how to get my laptop to boot reading the cd.
[01:23] <atomiku> okay
[01:23] <atomiku> good luck
[01:23] <oreth> EnsignRedshirt: I've only got 77 lines in the file.. not the 420 some odd it suggests I should
[01:23] <Talaman> shows up right before the login screen
[01:23] <atomiku> have a safe reboot
[01:23] <EnsignRedshirt> javadots: Sorry, I don't know anything about that. :(
[01:24] <javadots> :(
[01:24] <EnsignRedshirt> oreth: OK, hold on
[01:24] <javadots> i'm stuck in a window world
[01:24] <Talaman> i think it's my login settings...now i have to go find that
[01:24] <Proghead> royel nice it worked, how do I open the stuff on it (like music)
[01:24] <Frogzoo> mindstate: install a different login screen - or fiddle with the welcome message: sys -> admin -> login window
[01:24] <Talaman> where do i find the start screen settings?
[01:24] <atomiku> its probably the probability drive
[01:24] <mindstate> Frogzoo: ok
[01:24] <atomiku> check that out
[01:24] <atomiku> could be faulty
[01:25] <jrib> Talaman: system > administration > login window
[01:25] <oreth> Invert the polarity while you're at it
[01:25] <atomiku> yes
[01:25] <atomiku> and divide by zerio
[01:25] <atomiku> *zero
[01:25] <oreth> OH SHI-
[01:25] <royel> Proghead: open Nautilus an use the up arrow to browse to /mnt
[01:25] <ryan_> im trying to modify this file using the command "v -b rt61sta.dat" and its telling me about some swap file i need to delete, im lost
[01:25] <cchance> -_-Whats it called when i want to host windows account on my pc? Like they login through my pc their username and password are stored and so are their "profile" i know i use samba for this-_-
[01:25] <EnsignRedshirt> oreth: Do you have the file /etc/cups/cups.d/port.conf?
[01:25] <atomiku> and make sure you put candleja,, ..ck in your init.d
[01:25] <jrib> ryan_: 'v'?
[01:25] <atomiku> without the dots inbetween ja and ck
[01:25] <oreth> EnsignRedshirt: let me find o ut.
[01:25] <smallears69> frogzoo: nop
[01:25] <ryan_> no idea, thats what the doc is telling me
[01:26] <ryan_> vi
[01:26] <ryan_> sorry
[01:26] <Frogzoo> cchance: you mean domain controller I think
[01:26] <mau> hey guys, this is my first time on irc... yay me!  can somebody direct me to a hardware compatability list for Edgy?
[01:26] <oreth> EnsignRedshirt: Negative. It is an empty file
[01:26] <Talaman> brb
[01:26] <EnsignRedshirt> oreth: I am using dapper, and the wiki makes it sound like 6.06 and 6.10 are not quite the same.
[01:26] <Frogzoo> smallears69: burn the cd again, this time @ 1/2 speed
[01:26] <cchance> frogzoo, i think thats it. Is their a tutorial for this
[01:26] <atomiku> mau: Welcome to IRC, I should just let you know that IRC is serious business
[01:26] <devilsadvocate> !hardware
[01:26] <ubotu> For lists of supported hardware on Ubuntu see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupport
[01:26] <EnsignRedshirt> oreth: But the file exists?
[01:26] <cyberjackal> has anyone had any problems with aterm in ubuntu edgy displaying quotes, hyphens, apostrophes as "garbage"
[01:26] <royel> Proghead: or from a command line: nautilus /mnt/ntfs
[01:26] <Skaag> hey guys, I need this package: libapache-mod-frontpage-mirfak   and I can see on the ubuntu packages site that it's part of multiverse, but i'm in edgy and I can't find it even though I have multiverse in my sources.list - any ideas?
[01:26] <jrib> ryan_: read what it says.  There is a .swp file there as a backup.  Do you have another instance of vi open editing the file?  Or maybe vi just didn't close properly last time.  Just take a look at the current file and the .swp and see which one you want to keep
[01:26] <mau> got it
[01:27] <oreth> EnsignRedshirt: let me check through the file browser
[01:27] <Frogzoo> cchance: the samba docs? samba.org
[01:27] <Skaag> (I only need it because of a dependency really)
[01:27] <mau> thank you
[01:27] <oreth> EnsignRedshirt: i simply did a pico on it
[01:27] <atomiku> pico > *
[01:27] <smallears69> Frogzoo i burned on cd-rw at 4* speed
[01:27] <devilsadvocate> Skaag, try apt-cache search libapach
[01:27] <oreth> EnsignRedshirt: negative. the file does not exist
[01:27] <ReKlipz> hey all, i've got a question about partitioning
[01:27] <ryan_> i dont know, im so confused :(
[01:27] <atomiku> ReKlipz: ask away
[01:27] <jrib> ryan_: join me in #ubuntu-classroom
[01:28] <Skaag> devilsadvocate: there are a bunch of them, but not this one
[01:28] <ReKlipz> i recently had the default partitions setup using xubuntu (#1 primary ext3 with $5 logical swap)
[01:28] <EnsignRedshirt> oreth: I see. Do the last two lines of cupsd.conf look like "Include /etc/cups/cupsd.d/*.conf", where * is either "ports" or "browse"?
[01:28] <atomiku> okay
[01:28] <ReKlipz> i kind of... dropped my laptop, and now it wont partition
[01:28] <ReKlipz> it always stops at 33%
[01:28] <devilsadvocate> Skaag, is it in multiverse for edgy as far as the webite sayd?
[01:28] <atomiku> right
[01:28] <atomiku> Youve probably broken your laptop
[01:28] <ReKlipz> is the hdd shot?
[01:28] <Skaag> devilsadvocate: checking...
[01:28] <atomiku> Tried a different partition program?
[01:28] <ReKlipz> any way i can do a diagnostic on it?
[01:28] <Proghead> royel thanks man, seems to work fine!
[01:28] <liquiddoom> Does anybody know if when using Duplicity, an environment variable for the SCP password can be set?
[01:28] <Skaag> devilsadvocate:
[01:28] <Skaag> no it's part of dapper
[01:29] <ReKlipz> atomiku, nope, didnt know there were any others
[01:29] <atomiku> ReKlipz: There must be some sort of disk checker software out there, I suggest google
[01:29] <whonicca> jrib, any idea how to unmount the iso?
[01:29] <ReKlipz> shud i try fdisk form DOS?
[01:29] <royel> Proghead: good :)
[01:29] <oreth> wait
[01:29] <liquiddoom> All I know of is FTP_PASSWORD, but I'm not using FTP.
[01:29] <jrib> whonicca: umount FOO
[01:29] <atomiku> I wouldnt trust fdisk, because its made my windoze or something I dont know
[01:29] <oreth> EnsignRedshirt: I think I found it
[01:29] <Proghead> royel if I want to write eventually am I better to wait for a better software?
[01:29] <Proghead> well ntfs3 I think
[01:29] <atomiku> Anyway, ReKlipz
[01:29] <sean__> can someone please help me make my apple key (command key) on my ibook work as a ctrl key?
[01:29] <whonicca> foo not found
[01:29] <devilsadvocate> Skaag, you _could_ contact the devs and see if it will be ported to edgy. otherwise you might be able to compile from sources
[01:29] <royel> Proghead: you can add a line to fstab so it auto mounts anytime you reboot too
[01:29] <atomiku> lemme see if ubotu knows anything
[01:30] <ReKlipz> ok
[01:30] <atomiku> !partition | ReKlipz
[01:30] <ubotu> ReKlipz: Partitioning programs: !GParted or QTParted (also "man mkfs" for formatting) - Mounting partitions in Gnome under Dapper: System -> Administration -> Disks - For Edgy, see !fstab and !DiskMounter
[01:30] <Proghead> royel oh! what is it?
[01:30] <Frogzoo> !ntfs-3g | Proghead it's still beta, which means you can still lose your data:
[01:30] <ubotu> Proghead it's still beta, which means you can still lose your data:: ntfs-3g is is a Linux driver which allows read/write access to NTFS partitions. It has been extensively tested but is still BETA software, so use it with caution. Installation instructions at http://lunapark6.com/?p=1710 (Dapper) and http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=217009/ (Edgy)
[01:30] <atomiku> hmm
[01:30] <royel> Proghead: I know theres alot of people that use it now an it seems to be trouble free, I dont personally have any experience doing that though
[01:30] <oreth> EnsignRedshirt: It's at the begining of the cupsd.conf file
[01:30] <ReKlipz> not too much, lol
[01:30] <oreth> EnsignRedshirt: Just for further reference i'll send you what it should look like
[01:30] <atomiku> Hope that helps, as far as I know you'll be able to get gpartd working on xubuntu, its pretty good, try it out.
[01:30] <ReKlipz> but i cant load any OS
[01:31] <sean__> can someone help me change a key on my keyboard in ubuntu 6.10?
[01:31] <atomiku> try sudo apt-get install gparted
[01:31] <ReKlipz> atomiku, there is no OS on the hdd now...
[01:31] <atomiku> Ah.
[01:31] <ReKlipz> since i tried to partition it
[01:31] <atomiku> What os are you on now?
[01:31] <Skaag> devilsadvocate: is there a backports project for edgy?
[01:31] <devilsadvocate> Skaag, of course
[01:31] <Proghead> royel okay, well anyway that can wait
[01:31] <Frogzoo> !backports
[01:31] <ubotu> If new updated Ubuntu packages are built for an application, then they go into Ubuntu Backports. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuBackports
[01:31] <ReKlipz> atomiku, im on my desktop
[01:31] <Skaag> actually, I just noticed my ubuntu-server installation is dapper!
[01:31] <atomiku> Windows?
[01:31] <ReKlipz> atomiku, yes
[01:31] <atomiku> Okay
[01:32] <atomiku> Join me in #fucked-harddrive
[01:32] <Frogzoo> Skaag: dapper is LTS so perfectly ok for servers to run
[01:32] <Proghead> royel how I make the hd mount everytime I reboot?
[01:32] <atomiku> might take a few mins
[01:32] <Skaag> Frogzoo: LTS?
[01:32] <whonicca> is it possible to mount .bin image files?
[01:32] <Frogzoo> !lts
[01:32] <ubotu> LTS means Long Term Support. LTS versions of Ubuntu will be supported for 3 years on the desktop, and 5 years on the server.
[01:33] <Skaag> Frogzoo: ok, gotcha. that's good. but for some reason I am not finding a package that's supposed to be on dapper's multiverse channel.
[01:33] <Frogzoo> whonicca: 2 options - #1 convert to iso with mdf2iso, or #2 - compile/install cdemu
[01:33] <kristallpirat> where do I find the "Linux kernel (2.6.10-6-386) source directory"?
[01:33] <royel> Proghead: uhm, something like this in /etc/fstab, /dev/hdb1 /mnt/ntfs  ntfs ro 0 0
[01:33] <Frogzoo> Skaag: maybe you need to enable the multiverse repo
[01:33] <Skaag> it is enabled
[01:34] <Frogzoo> Skaag: then it's not in the repo
[01:34] <Skaag> does this look ok: deb http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ dapper-backports main restricted universe multiverse
[01:34] <whonicca> Frogzoo, thanks
[01:34] <devilsadvocate> kristallpirat, you need to get the sources.. i think its linux-headers
[01:34] <Skaag> but this page says it should be: http://packages.ubuntulinux.org/dapper/web/libapache-mod-frontpage-mirfak
[01:34] <Salz> hm, is there some recording of the cd release performane? ( http://p2pnet.net/story/11366 )
[01:34] <PwcrLinux> Hmm, I suspect my lappy video ram should be working, it's 32 MB of Vram.. how can check with video ram status?
[01:34] <ribo> how do I make apt not remove a conflicting package?
[01:34] <ribo> when installing another
[01:35] <Frogzoo> Skaag: if it's in the repos, you don't have the multiverse repo enabled
[01:35] <devilsadvocate> kristallpirat, once you get them via apt, they should be in /usr/src/linux, i think
[01:35] <Skaag> Frogzoo: I pasted you the deb line... you can see multiverse is clearly there... what else am I doing wrong?
[01:35] <PwcrLinux> Oh yea!, when the kernel installed, last time I saw doubling installation..
[01:35] <whonicca> Frogzoo, any idea how to unmount an iso file?
[01:35] <devilsadvocate> ribo, apt does the dependancy checking for a reason
[01:36] <EnsignRedshirt> Skaag: Did you update after changing the file?
[01:36] <Skaag> of course
[01:36] <EnsignRedshirt> Skaag: OK, just checking
[01:36] <Skaag> i'm downloading the deb now manually
[01:36] <Skaag> strange stuff
[01:36] <oreth> EnsignRedshirt: Haha. My XP machine has recognized
[01:37] <eric_> hey does anyone know an equivalent of this: http://doc.ubuntu-fr.org/console/commandes_de_base     in english???
[01:37] <oreth> now I just hope it prints
[01:37] <EnsignRedshirt> oreth: Cool.
[01:37] <EnsignRedshirt> Skaag: What package? (Just curious.)
[01:37] <ribo> devilsadvocate: it is, however, incorrect. It claims exim conflicts with postfix, which it assuredly does not if set up properly
[01:37] <mindstate> i need some help. when i start up gnome.. my panels dont get loaded ..i can goto tty1 and load it with DISPLAY=:0.0 gnome-panel but i get a dbus error. anyone know how i can get my panels back to loading automatically?
[01:37] <Skaag> EnsignRedshirt: libapache-mod-frontpage-mirfak
[01:37] <kristallpirat> devilsadvocate, thx getting the packets...
[01:37] <Wuilliam> Installer Crashed http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/6651/
[01:37] <Wuilliam> who can help me

[01:38] <jlamr> anyone know about why my wireless router occasionally cuts out - like when coming back from standby. Only comes back on restart/reboot
[01:39] <dreamerdude> Package manager is broke i think....When i click for updates on ubuntu it flicks on then off
[01:39] <EnsignRedshirt> Skaag: Why do you say it is the repos?  I have dapper universe, multiverse, and dapper-backports enabled, and I don't see that package.
[01:39] <dreamerdude> anyone know why?
[01:39] <EnsignRedshirt> Skaag: Wait, I lied.
[01:39] <dreamerdude> nevamind
[01:40] <eric_> does anyone know an equivalent of this: http://doc.ubuntu-fr.org/console/commandes_de_base     in english???
[01:40] <royel> Wuilliam: according to that, theres no space left.. what are you installing?
[01:40] <EnsignRedshirt> Skaag: Yes, it is there, in multiverse.

[01:40] <eric_> thanks
[01:41] <Skaag> EnsignRedshirt: if you apt-cache search you find it??
[01:41] <Skaag> EnsignRedshirt: or are you referring to the website?
[01:41] <EnsignRedshirt> Skaag: I found it in Synaptic, and in packages.ubuntu.com
[01:41] <Skaag> yes I find it in pacakges
[01:42] <Skaag> in packages.ubuntu.com
[01:42] <Skaag> but I don't use synaptic, this is a server without GUI
[01:42] <Skaag> EnsignRedshirt: which server do you use?
[01:42] <Skaag> us.archive.ubuntu.org?
[01:43] <henriw156> Could someone help me?
[01:43] <Skaag> just ask
[01:43] <EnsignRedshirt> Skaag: us.archive.ubuntu.com
[01:43] <dreamerdude> Ok how do i stop package manager wanting to reinstall something? i get this error when running updates or apt-get: E: The package nerolinux needs to be reinstalled, but I can't find an archive for it.
[01:43] <dreamerdude> E: Internal error opening cache (1). Please report.
[01:43] <Skaag> EnsignRedshirt: like me... weird man.
[01:43] <self> I need a command-line way to take a file (in any format, but at least ogg, wav, mp3and wma) and covert the file to MP3 VBR, WMA and OGG.  Basically 1->3 conversion.  I'm fine if this will need multiple commands in a bash script, but I'm not sure where to even start :S
[01:43] <atomiku> i need a good alarm program for ubuntu, one that lets you have an MP3 as the alarm tone. Any suggestions?
[01:44] <henriw156> Skaag: on my other pc i have ubuntu and when i install something or use something that uses the administrative application it crashes
[01:44] <EnsignRedshirt> Skaag: I just did: sudo apt-get install -s libapache-mod-frontpage-mirfak
[01:44] <jrib> atomiku: you could just create a cron job
[01:44] <jrib> !cron | atomiku

[01:44] <atomiku> jrib: nah
[01:44] <dreamerdude> Anyone?
[01:44] <Skaag> EnsignRedshirt: what does the -s do?
[01:45] <sivik> anyone here use Teamspeak?
[01:45] <mau> if I don't see my video card listed here:  https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupportComponentsVideoCardsAti  -  Does that mean it's not compatible?  Is that list definitive?
[01:45] <Skaag> ah, simulation
[01:45] <EnsignRedshirt> Skaag: "simulate" ... it doesn't actually make any changes, but it tells you what it *would* do.
[01:45] <Skaag> sivik: I use TeamSpeak
[01:45] <henriw156> uh anyone?
[01:45] <EnsignRedshirt> Skaag: I don't have apache installed.
[01:45] <sivik> Skaag, i'm having problems with it accepting my mic
[01:46] <Skaag> sivik: is it some USB mic?
[01:46] <efrancolaporte> hey i need help i installed xcompmgr and it works but when i click logout my system freezes unless I reset the xserver with CTRL-ALT-BACKSPACE
[01:46] <sivik> Skaag, no, its plugged in to the mic/headphone port on the front of my computer
[01:46] <Skaag> sivik: even then should work - make sure you are using the correct engine, and look it up in the ubuntu frums
[01:46] <Skaag> forums
[01:46] <sivik> Skagg: it was working, and now its not
[01:46] <henriw156> Skaag: on my other pc i have ubuntu and when i install something or use something that uses the administrative application it crashes
[01:46] <Skaag> sivik: make sure no other app is using the mic, as well
[01:46] <sivik> Skaag, i don't think it is, and how would i tell, the only thing i have open right now is xchat and konsole
[01:47] <dreamerdude> Ok how do i stop package manager wanting to reinstall something? i get this error when running updates or apt-get: E: The package nerolinux needs to be reinstalled, but I can't find an archive for it. E: Internal error opening cache (1). Please report
[01:47] <Skaag> henriw156: gotcha the first time. I have no idea what the problem is without a closer inspection because your description is a bit vague.
[01:47] <digitalhav0c> Skaag, what game do you play?
[01:47] <digitalhav0c> css?
[01:47] <efrancolaporte> hey i need help i installed xcompmgr and it works but when i click logout my system freezes unless I reset the xserver with CTRL-ALT-BACKSPACE
[01:47] <henriw156> so what do i need to explain better
[01:47] <efrancolaporte> its not that the window doesnt appear, my mouse freezes too
[01:48] <Skaag> digitalhav0c: just SecondLife, i'm building something for SecondLife with TeamSpeak server/client
[01:48] <digitalhav0c> oh ok
[01:48] <digitalhav0c> cool
[01:48] <Skaag> sivik: sounds like it should work, did you try another application like Audacity?
[01:49] <henriw156> Skaag: if you want i could upload my log files to my FTP/web site?
[01:49] <efrancolaporte> hey i need help i installed xcompmgr and it works but when i click logout my system freezes unless I reset the xserver with CTRL-ALT-BACKSPACE
[01:49] <efrancolaporte> its not that the window doesnt appear, my mouse freezes too
[01:49] <Skaag> henriw156: what kind of crash is it?
[01:49] <Qzr> I get a GRUB Error 22, anyone know what that means?
[01:49] <henriw156> well i go to network and it starts loading then it stops and the app closes
[01:50] <Skaag> henriw156: so it closes without any errors?
[01:50] <henriw156> yup no errors
[01:50] <Qzr> and could anyone tell me how on earth i get rid of GRUB?
[01:50] <Skaag> Qzr: you want to keep it, it is the best option...
[01:50] <henriw156> i could upload screenys
[01:50] <Skaag> Qzr: why do you want to remove it??
[01:51] <Skaag> henriw156: i'm thinking what could cause this
[01:51] <andre> hello everyone, anyone know when blender 2.43 is to be included in ubuntu?
[01:51] <henriw156> ok
[01:51] <sivik> Skagg: yeah, i though it would, but it doesn't seem to be working
[01:51] <Skaag> henriw156: supposed to run a program gksudo to ask you for your password...
[01:51] <efrancolaporte> hey i need help i installed xcompmgr and it works but when i click logout my system freezes unless I reset the xserver with CTRL-ALT-BACKSPACE
[01:51] <efrancolaporte> its not that the window doesnt appear, my mouse freezes too
[01:51] <Skaag> henriw156: so my guess is there is some problem with gksudo
[01:51] <sivik> Skagg: is there a way to do a test or setup to make sure the mic is working correctly?
[01:51] <Skaag> sivik: so audacity does not work as well?
[01:51] <henriw156> Skaag: so what do i do???
[01:51] <sivik> Skagg: i haven't tried with audacity, i don't have it installed
[01:52] <Qzr> Because I'm trying to install windows again, but when I run my recoverydisk the GRUB just lock up giving errors, and it wont let me boot from any other cds than the ubuntu and the recoverydisk. Ive tried a gentoo cd and a winxp cd.
[01:52] <Frogzoo> Qzr: check /boot/grub/menu.lst - option kopt & groot
[01:52] <Skaag> henriw156: try to reinstall gksudo
[01:52] <Qzr> Sofar ive gotten error 17 and just now when i tried to delete all partitions i got error 22
[01:52] <henriw156> Skaag: and how do i do that (I installed ubuntu yesterday so im a newbie at it)?
[01:52] <sivik> Skagg: There was an error initializing the audio i/o layer.  You will not be able to play or record audio
[01:52] <sivik> Skagg: Error: Host error
[01:52] <Skaag> sivik: I suggest you install SOME app that uses the mic, before you conclude what the problem is...

[01:53] <whonicca> ive man'ed losetup and umount to no avail
[01:53] <Skaag> henriw156: I find it hard to believe that you installed a standard brand new ubuntu, and you are already experiencing such issues...
[01:53] <efrancolaporte> lol
[01:53] <royel> whonicca: sudo umount /home/julio/Desktop
[01:53] <jrib> efrancolaporte: that gets you the *wrong* kind of attention
[01:53] <Skaag> henriw156: is it ubuntu edgy, latest version?
[01:54] <henriw156> Skaag: but i know what the terminal is and stuff
[01:54] <henriw156> Skaag: no its 6.06
[01:54] <kitche> !xmms2 | Orfeous
[01:54] <Skaag> henriw156: hey, I never said you need the terminal...!
[01:54] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about xmms2 - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi

[01:54] <kitche> Orfeous: probably have to build it
[01:54] <henriw156> Skaag: Its dapper drake i think
[01:54] <Skaag> henriw156: any chance of you downloading and installing 6.10 instead? (latest)
[01:54] <jrib> whonicca: by FOO I meant /dev/whateveryoumountedbefore
[01:54] <henriw156> i dunno
[01:54] <henriw156> how do i do that
[01:54] <Skaag> henriw156: I strongly suggest that :)
[01:54] <Orfeous> kitche, i found a site that told me that debian packages was working.
[01:54] <Skaag> henriw156: what is an operating system you know very well?
[01:55] <andre> anyone know when blender 2.43 is to be included in ubuntu?
[01:55] <whonicca> jrib, what did u say the command was again, so i can try it
[01:55] <EnsignRedshirt> Skaag: Why would you advise him to install 6.10?
[01:55] <Orfeous> kitche, http://wiki.xmms2.xmms.se/index.php/Download_XMMS2
[01:55] <henriw156> Skaag: Becoause if i need to use the update program im out of luck :(
[01:55] <sivik> henriw156, have you had any problems running a ubuntu live cd?
[01:55] <henriw156> yes
[01:55] <Skaag> EnsignRedshirt: because it looks like his current install is buggered, and if he's going to reinstall anyway, why not 6.10 :)
[01:55] <royel> whonicca: sudo mount
[01:55] <Orfeous> there are some ubuntu-packages there also but not my version name

[01:55] <sivik> henriw156, just do it from command, sudo aptitude (apt-get) upgrade
[01:55] <royel> whonicca: send me the output to pastebin
[01:55] <henriw156> ok
[01:55] <jrib> whonicca: wait, why did you mount to Desktop?  Don't you have files in there?
[01:55] <sivik> henriw156, and see if that works
[01:55] <henriw156> *tries*
[01:56] <sivik> henriw156, use either CLI or konsole or terminal or something like that
[01:56] <Skaag> henriw156: he means: sudo aptitude upgrade
[01:56] <halkonst> I have a very strange problem with my internet connection. Anyone wanna help?

[01:59] <tibore> can i have a question regarding beryl?
[02:00] <AngryElf> I just added a SCSI card and a tape drive to a 6.10 box.  IT locks up immediately after "booting the kernel" with the message: "rejecting I/O to offline device" then: "wide transfers fail" -- this doesn't happen if the tape drive is powered off....any ideas?
[02:00] <whonicca> royel, for some reason it isnt showing anymore, but the folders are still on my desktop
[02:00] <efrancolaporte> i cant find help in the forums
[02:00] <halkonst> sivik: Yes, it's there. It's been there all the time. The correct information the way it is in my ISP papers and that work under windows
[02:00] <sivik> hum, not sure
[02:00] <sivik> so you enter your dns correctly?
[02:00] <sivik> sometimes if you have mulitple dns's it screwed up
[02:01] <halkonst> sivik: yes, my DNS servers are also correct
[02:01] <tibore> can anybody help me with beryl? I couldnt find the answer on forums...
[02:01] <jrib> whonicca: what happens if you try:  sudo umount /home/julio/Desktop/CRANK.iso
[02:01] <sivik> halkonst, not sure
[02:01] <whonicca> well i cant get into the folders neither, say they might have been deleted, but the iso file isnt there, i think my desktop isnt refreshing automatically
[02:01] <whonicca> jrib, its been unmounted
[02:01] <halkonst> And I don't think this is a DNS problem (yet). I can't even ping my gateway

[02:02] <ferret_0567> Is "usplash" completely optional in Xubuntu 6.10?
[02:02] <ferret_0567> I believe it's not {X, K}Ubuntu specific
[02:03] <royel> whonicca: in the future, it's a good idea to create a new directory to mount anything to, you might want to reboot just to be sure things are how they should, anytime you want to unmount something use: umount an the loc you mounted to
[02:03] <henriw156> ok its http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/6654
[02:03] <whonicca> royel, thanks for the information

[02:06] <jrib> henriw156: yes, but you'll need to boot into recovery mode if you don't have a root password.  You need to have a hostname in /etc/hostname and also have that name correspond to <IP_ADDRESS> in /etc/hosts (just add it to the end of the line that starts with <IP_ADDRESS>).  recovery mode is an option at the grub prompt.   I'm going. Bye

[02:08] <sivik> atomiku, no one is going to help you if you haven't tried something first
[02:08] <henriw156> ok wait

[02:08] <sivik> atomiku, what do you mean?
[02:09] <sivik> atomiku, not my problems
[02:09] <atomiku> ine

[02:09] <atomiku> how do you set up a cronjob to go off at a certain time

[02:09] <jrib> atomiku: getting an app to open in X is a little more involved.  Will you settle for 'mpg321 foo.mp3'?
[02:09] <henriw156> *turning pc on*
[02:10] <sivik> Skaag, could vmplayer running in the back ground case it?
[02:10] <atomiku> xmms -p mp3.mp3 <-- thats how its done
[02:10] <sivik> cause*
[02:10] <atomiku> I just need to know how to do the cronjob
[02:10] <Skaag> sivik: yes of course
[02:10] <Frogzoo> snel: also https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WorldofWarcraft
[02:10] <sivik> Skaag: ok, that might have been it
[02:10] <snel> thanks
[02:11] <jrib> atomiku: the wiki page takes 2 minutes to read
[02:11] <atomiku> jrib: You answer me this: Do you know how
[02:11] <atomiku> yes or no
[02:11] <sivik> Skaag, it still says something is using the audio drivers, how do i tell what program that is
[02:11] <atomiku> simple question
[02:11] <jrib> atomiku: why does that matter?
[02:11] <henriw156> jrib: ok im at the login menu what do i do now?
[02:11] <atomiku> or do I have to read your wiki that tells me whether or not you know
[02:11] <oreth> I'm back, dammit
[02:11] <Frogzoo> atomiku: this isn't the spanish inquisition
[02:11] <jrib> atomiku: I'll answer anything that isn't clear on the wiki...
[02:12] <Frogzoo> someone needs to chill
[02:12] <Skaag> sivik: you could use lsof

[02:12] <atomiku> im chilled
[02:12] <atomiku> *and tired)
[02:12] <bimberi> and still using the enter key as punctuation
[02:12] <henriw156> jrib: im at the login what do i do?
[02:13] <Frogzoo> atomiku: man 5 crontab
[02:13] <atomiku> ...
[02:13] <jrib> henriw156: hmm, you shouldn't be at a login, you should just have a prompt that ends in a #
[02:13] <sivik> Skaag: how do i tell which one is using alsa?
[02:13] <jrib> atomiku: seriously, I'm trying to help you by giving you that wiki page.  All I would be doing to explain cron to you is typing out taht page
[02:13] <henriw156> no i rebooted the pc what do i do????
[02:13] <atomiku> not making any sence
[02:13] <atomiku> most of it is blurry
[02:14] <jrib> henriw156: did you choose the "recovery mode" option at the grub menu?
[02:14] <atomiku> and before you ask how im reading irc, im squiting
[02:14] <henriw156> ok
[02:14] <Skaag> sivik: grep it
[02:14] <atomiku> *squinting
[02:14] <henriw156> reboots again
[02:14] <atomiku> the wiki is makin no sense
[02:14] <sivik> Skaag: grep audio or alsa?
[02:14] <atomiku> nor is the man page
[02:15] <Orfeous> does anyone got XMMS2 working?

[02:18] <brent> gnome-network-manager for 6.10
[02:18] <jrib> henriw156: oh, ctrl-o to save and ctrl-x to exit

[02:19] <henriw156> It said (Erorr writeing to /ect/hostname no such file or dir)
[02:19] <brent> no its XP
[02:19] <fglrx> brent: He could probably just use the packages from the liveCD.
[02:19] <ferret_0567> Woot! Removing usplash fixed it!

[02:22] <brent> nice thank you royel
[02:23] <WildCard> I tried downloading ubuntu onto my other pc, but i cant get any farther than where it puts me after i install it, i DUN HAVE A DESKTOP
[02:23] <WildCard> >_<
[02:23] <sivik> Skaag, does that explain anything
[02:23] <Skaag> sivik: checking
[02:23] <sivik> Skaag, ok, wasn't sure

[02:23] <atomiku> ooops, wine crashed
[02:23] <Skaag> sivik: ok you have firefox using your audio as well, probably a flash
[02:23] <WildCard> somebody help pls, its really confusing and frustrating
[02:24] <Skaag> sivik: but you are using artsd & also ESD
[02:24] <elias_> could anyone tell me how to deactivate grub or delete grub?
[02:24] <royel> My gateway/fireway (ubuntu 6.06 server) is throttling my bandwidth to clients, I should get close to 3MB/s down but it is choking me to around 1-1.2MB/s, I have tested extensively, an it is a problem within the server, an I replaced all the nics just earlier today. Any clues?
[02:24] <sivik> Skaag: what does that mean, that i'm running artsd & ESD
[02:24] <Frogzoo> WildCard: did the install complete?
[02:24] <Skaag> sivik: i'm at a loss here, but I know artsd creates a new device for standard apps to use
[02:24] <WildCard> ya
[02:24] <atomiku> So, why isnt this working? The time now is 1.24am and i set this at 1.23am, it failed to run xmms: 24 1 * * * atomiku xmms -p /home/atomiku/mystuff/alarm.mp3
[02:24] <Skaag> sivik: what this means is that you should point your teamspeak to that new device created by arts
[02:24] <WildCard> it puts me in the shell or something
[02:24] <Frogzoo> WildCard: what make/model machine?
[02:24] <jrib> atomiku: because $DISPLAY is not set
[02:24] <atomiku> Ah...
[02:24] <Skaag> sivik: it should then behave like a good boy and work, through artsd
[02:25] <nanotube> jrib: thank you
[02:25] <sivik> Skaag: i have figure out what artsd does

[02:25] <WildCard> I think its ibm
[02:25] <atomiku> How would I go about setting $DISPLY? Doesnt seem to say anything about it on the page that im reading
[02:25] <nanotube> Frogzoo: thank you
[02:25] <Frogzoo> WildCard: run "dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg"
[02:25] <jrib> atomiku: also, you should use crontab -e instead of /etc/crontab
[02:25] <atomiku> I'm using crontab -e :)
[02:26] <bali30005> andy
[02:26] <valuedcustomer> gnome-terminal won't launch.  i'm using ubuntu-edgy.  i get 'Starting Terminal' for a couple of seconds and then nothing.
[02:26] <jrib> atomiku: then you shouldn't have your user on that line
[02:26] <atomiku> root?
[02:26] <jrib> atomiku: no, that field doesn't exist
[02:26] <atomiku> Oh.
[02:26] <atomiku> http://www.linuxhelp.net/guides/cron/ <-- all im told
[02:26] <georgy> atomiku : you can just use the command play : play your.mp3
[02:26] <WildCard> it said: /usr/sbin/dpkg-reconfigure must run as root
[02:26] <atomiku> georgy: the xmms command works fine
[02:27] <atomiku> plus it would try and play it in some other player which doesnt work
[02:27] <henriw156> jrib: sorry im back
[02:27] <georgy> atomiku : ok
[02:27] <WildCard> so, it didnt reallu do anything...
[02:27] <henriw156> jrib: what was the name of those two files again?
[02:27] <Frogzoo> WildCard: run "sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg"
[02:27] <jrib> henriw156: /etc/hostname and /etc/hosts
[02:28] <atomiku> So..
[02:28] <Skaag> sivik: so you understand now what to do?
[02:28] <atomiku> any ideas?
[02:28] <oreth> I hear there is an Expose style function for Ubuntu?
[02:28] <sivik> Skaag: no
[02:28] <jrib> atomiku: about?
[02:28] <Skaag> sivik: basically, arts allows many apps to use the same audio device
[02:28] <Skaag> sivik: at the same time
[02:28] <atomiku> setting up this crontab. I now have: 28 1 * * * xmms -p /home/atomiku/mystuff/alarm.mp3
[02:28] <henriw156> jrib: it dosent work
[02:28] <WildCard> xserver-sorg isnt installed
[02:28] <atomiku> still doesnt work
[02:28] <sean__> an i ask a really simple terminal question?
[02:28] <jrib> henriw156: what do your files look like now?
[02:28] <Skaag> sivik: so it covers the physical device, and then creates a new virtual device that is not exclusive and can be used by many apps in parallel
[02:28] <jrib> atomiku: have you set $DISPLAY?
[02:28] <atomiku> I havent a clue how
[02:29] <sivik> Skaag: ok, then how do i know what it creates so i can tell TS about it
[02:29] <atomiku> it says nothing about it on this page
[02:29] <cafuego_> atomiku: No, cron doesn't set env vars that are needed for X.
[02:29] <Skaag> sivik: so you can for example run several audio players and you will hear all of them playing at once
[02:29] <atomiku> huh
[02:29] <sean__> how do i add lines in the terminal?
[02:29] <jrib> atomiku: I'd suggest just using mpg321 to play your mp3.  Using X apps is more involved
[02:29] <cafuego_> atomiku: If you sue a commandline mp3 player and not xmms, it'd be fine.
[02:29] <sean__> after i type "vim .Xmodmap"
[02:29] <Skaag> sivik: you need to read the docs because I don't remember by heart..
[02:29] <WildCard> Frogzoo: i typed it in, and it said xserver-xorg isnt installed
[02:29] <Mukunda> Does anyone know where I can find a fool-proof guide on installing lamp and wordpress on Ubuntu?
[02:29] <sivik> Skaag: grand
[02:29] <sivik> Skaag: i'm not good at understanding what i read
[02:29] <Skaag> sivik: but once you know you can go to teamspeak settings and set a different audio device /dev/something
[02:29] <atomiku> okay
[02:29] <Skaag> sivik: sorry about that man..
[02:29] <atomiku> all im saying is: when I run the xmms command in terminal, it all seems to work fine
[02:29] <sean__> how do I add lines to a file are I typed "vim .Xmodmap" please help
[02:29] <Skaag> 3:30am here and I need to go to sleep
[02:30] <atomiku> im not suggesting that it should work when in the crontab, but i havent got a clue really
[02:30] <sean__> after i typed
[02:30] <jrib> oreth: skippy is one.  Also, beryl has it built-in
[02:30] <sivik> Skaag: its alright
[02:30] <cafuego_> atomiku: Yes, because $DISPLAY is set, because the terminal runs from within X.
[02:30] <Skaag> anyone else here uses ARTSD and can tell what virtual device it creates?
[02:30] <atomiku> okay
[02:30] <atomiku> so
[02:30] <WildCard> 0.o
[02:30] <henriw156> jrib: it just wont find them i type nano /ect/hostname and i save it and it says file not found
[02:30] <atomiku> lemme try mpg321 then
[02:30] <linux_kid> I'm having trouble using Airodump to get a .cap file for a Wireless Network, any Help..?
[02:30] <sean__> can someone please help me?
[02:30] <sean__> real quick?
[02:30] <atomiku> atomiku@atomiku-linux:~$ mpg321
[02:30] <atomiku> bash: mpg321: command not found
[02:30] <jrib> henriw156: "etc" NOT "ect"
[02:30] <henriw156> ok
[02:30] <atomiku> atomiku@atomiku-linux:~$ mpg321
[02:30] <atomiku> bash: mpg321: command not found
[02:30] <atomiku> ooops
[02:30] <ReKlipz>  atomiku: sudo apt-get instlal mpg321
[02:30] <jrib> atomiku: install it
[02:31] <atomiku> yeah sorry about that second paste
[02:31] <WildCard> -_-"
[02:31] <ReKlipz> err sudo apt-get install mpg321
[02:31] <atomiku> hit the wrong key... x_x
[02:31] <sean__> jrib, are you there? can i ask you a question?
[02:31] <atomiku> thanks, im installing it now
[02:31] <kitche> Skaag: artsd doesn't create a virtual device
[02:31] <jrib> sean__: sure, you can ask the whole room and I'll listen too
[02:31] <kitche> Skaag: if your talking baout the kde sound daemon
[02:31] <sean__> I created a file, and I need to add 2 lines to it
[02:31] <Skaag> kitche: it gives apps non-exclusive, mixed access to the audio device
[02:31] <sean__> I typed "vim .Xmodmap"
[02:31] <atomiku> Can it do MP3?
[02:31] <sean__> and need to add the lines now
[02:31] <sean__> in the terminal
[02:31] <sean__> how do I do that?
[02:32] <sean__> Im a newbie, sorry
[02:32] <sivik> Skaag: how do i tell what /dev my audacity is using
[02:32] <jrib> sean__: why are you using vi?
[02:32] <Frogzoo> WildCard: did you do the desktop or server instal ?
[02:32] <Skaag> kitche: arts releases the audio device if no app uses it for X seconds right?
[02:32] <elias_> could anyone tell me how to deactivate grub or delete grub? I need it to not load so i can use my recovery disk
[02:32] <Skaag> sivik: I have another idea
[02:32] <sean__> jrib- what should i be using?
[02:32] <Skaag> sivik: arts has this wrapper
[02:32] <Skaag> sivik: arts-wrapper or something
[02:32] <henriw156> jrib: ok the first one worked now on the file hosts what do i do?
[02:32] <ReKlipz> elias_, change the setting in BIOS, so CD/DVD is before HDD
[02:32] <WildCard> Frogzoo: The Desktop install
[02:32] <kitche> Skaag: artsd holds onto the audio
[02:32] <sivik> Skaag: then i'm going to have to figure that out
[02:32] <Skaag> sivik: run teamspeak client inside this wrapper: arts-wrapper teamspeak
[02:32] <andre> anyone know when blender 2.43 is to be included in ubuntu?
[02:32] <sivik> is it installed?
[02:32] <jrib> sean__: if you want an easy terminal editor for beginners use nano.  Or just use gedit if you want a nice gui editor.  If you really want to learn how to use vi, then run 'vimtutor'
[02:32] <Skaag> sivik: yes if you have arts it should be there
[02:33] <kitche> sivik: it's for kde not for gnome gnome uses esd
[02:33] <Skaag> sivik: it runs that application, and for that instance, it knows how to emulate the sound device with the virtual device
[02:33] <jrib> henriw156: add your hostname to the end of the line that begins with "<IP_ADDRESS>"
[02:33] <Frogzoo> WildCard: pls paste that error msg
[02:33] <Skaag> kitche: for some reason he has both
[02:33] <elias_> ReKlipz, ive done that. The problem is that after i run the recovery disk, grub loades with a error 17 (after ive used the recoverydisk)
[02:33] <Skaag> maybe that's his problem
[02:33] <Frogzoo> WildCard: oh, my bad, you can't of course
[02:33] <sivik> kitche, i understand that, but i have both kde and gnome installed and i don't use either
[02:33] <Skaag> sivik: how come you have both arts and esd?
[02:33] <WildCard> Frogzoo: K, but im on a different pc, lol
[02:33] <Skaag> I see
[02:33] <Skaag> what a mess
[02:33] <henriw156> jrib: confirming that line says <IP_ADDRESS> localhost
[02:33] <sivik> Skaag, probably cause i have gnome and kde installed, but i don't use either of them
[02:34] <WildCard> Frogzoo: I could retype it or something...
[02:34] <Frogzoo> WildCard: if you did the desktop install, xserver-xorg is there - likely your typo
[02:34] <Skaag> at least disable arts completely
[02:34] <Skaag> do /etc/init.d/artsd stop
[02:34] <WildCard> hmm
[02:34] <jrib> henriw156: yep, so if your hostname is "henri", change it to:  <IP_ADDRESS> localhost henri
[02:34] <Frogzoo> WildCard: run "sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg"
[02:34] <henriw156> jrib: so the result is <IP_ADDRESS> localhost Henri-Laptop
[02:34] <jrib> henriw156: right
[02:34] <henriw156> ok
[02:34] <sivik> Skaag, sudo: /etc/init.d/artsd: command not found
[02:34] <henriw156> wait
[02:34] <Vilhelms> Whenever I switch a theme on the theme manager it doesn't do anything.
[02:35] <henriw156> jrib: how do i exit
[02:35] <Frogzoo> Vilhelms: under beryl? reload window decorator
[02:35] <atomiku> nevermind
[02:35] <WildCard> Frogzoo: No error, it said it wasnt installed

[02:36] <jrib> henriw156: shutdown -r now
[02:36] <henriw156> *booting*
[02:36] <sivik> Skaag, according to the ls, there isn't anything called arts or artsd in the /etc/init.d folder
[02:36] <WildCard> "Package 'xserver-xorg' is not installed and no info is available"  O.o
[02:36] <Frogzoo> !codecs | Wrongway install the codecs, mentioned in the 'restricted' link

[02:36] <henriw156> jrib: its loading slower than ever is this normal??
[02:36] <Frogzoo> WildCard: which distro is this?
[02:36] <P4ndaman> does anyone know if it is possible to install 6.10 edgy for a dual boot system (windows with ubuntu)?
[02:36] <jrib> henriw156: I guess not
[02:37] <henriw156> (forget it)
[02:37] <P4ndaman> the alternative one
[02:37] <Skaag> sivik: so how was it started, that's strange
[02:37] <Frogzoo> P4ndaman: eminently doable
[02:37] <sivik> Skaag, i have no clue how it was started
[02:37] <liquiddoom> P4ndaman: Of course/
[02:37] <oreth> I can't get this printer sharing thing running
[02:37] <Skaag> sivik: you may have some app that searches for it and activates it. some KDE app.
[02:37] <WildCard> Frogzoo: 6.06
[02:37] <henriw156> jrib: its on the login screen lets see if it worked
[02:37] <P4ndaman> with the alternative cd
[02:37] <P4ndaman> ?
[02:37] <Skaag> sivik: maybe some KDE audio app
[02:37] <sivik> Skaag, i don't have a KDE audio app open
[02:37] <liquiddoom> P4ndaman: It is, I've done it before
[02:37] <P4ndaman> ok
[02:37] <renay> why cant i find libtoolize in synaptic?
[02:37] <Skaag> donno what goes on your system man
[02:37] <Chetwin> Does java6 work with frostwire now?
[02:37] <Skaag> sounds like a bit of a mess to me :)
[02:38] <sivik> Skaag: i'm going to do a kill on artsd
[02:38] <tracy> to create a file, in the terminal, is that 'gedit'?
[02:38] <sivik> or one could use touch
[02:38] <oreth> Anyone know why I would beable to CONNECT to the printer from windows, but not print?
[02:38] <P4ndaman> is there anything special one must do to install dual boot with the alternative disk?
[02:38] <oreth> i recieve a "Insufficient Memory" error on the PC side
[02:38] <WildCard> brb
[02:38] <henriw156> jrib: looks like it worked caouse it asked for password when i went to network
[02:38] <jrib> henriw156: great
[02:39] <liquiddoom> P4ndaman: If I remember right, all you have to do is tell grub to add the Windows images to its menu
[02:39] <henriw156> jrib: thanks for your help
[02:39] <WildCard> back
[02:39] <jrib> henriw156: yw
[02:39] <P4ndaman> ok thanks
[02:39] <Skaag> sivik: good luck
[02:39] <liquiddoom> P4ndaman: And of course, give Ubuntu two partitions
[02:39] <WildCard> Frogzoo: And yes, its Ubuntu :)
[02:39] <Vilhelms> Frogzoo, It works for default gnome themes but none of the gtk themes work
[02:39] <P4ndaman> yeah i have three
[02:39] <SaveFerris> hey guys, is it possible at all to use a live cd to fix a problem in my installed xubuntu?
[02:39] <P4ndaman> one for sharign between the oses
[02:39] <jrib> SaveFerris: what problem?
[02:39] <henriw156> jrib: it worked thanks :) (sorry if i annyed you becoause i didn`t know anything but its that i installed it yesterday)
[02:39] <SaveFerris> like, say downloading a video driver
[02:40] <liquiddoom> P4ndaman: One for swap, actually
[02:40] <henriw156> jrib: bye
[02:40] <P4ndaman> ok
[02:40] <eric__2004> what's the channel for PPC ubuntu?
[02:40] <SaveFerris> jrib: i've spent all day trying to get it to work from the recovery terminal
[02:40] <henriw156> jrib: good night!!
[02:40] <Frogzoo> Vilhelms: install the relevant gtk2-engines-***
[02:40] <P4ndaman> how much should i allocate for swap
[02:40] <phrowzen> hey
[02:40] <jrib> henriw156: no need to apologize, that's why I'm here.  good night
[02:40] <georgy> !ppc
[02:40] <ubotu> ppc is PowerPC.  Formerly used by Apple for the Macintosh line of computers, and now a fully supported Ubuntu architecture.
[02:40] <sivik> P4ndaman, twice your ram
[02:40] <liquiddoom> P4ndaman: Around 512-1GB
[02:40] <jrib> SaveFerris: but what is the actual issue
[02:40] <P4ndaman> oh so 4gb cause i have 2gb
[02:40] <eric__2004> what's the name of the channel for PPC ubunut?
[02:40] <phrowzen> im trying to access my network shares on my ubuntu comp from my girlfriends pc.. its asking for a l/p. i provide the l/p i use to log in on my ubuntu box, but its not working.. hmm, anyone know what l/p it might expect?
[02:41] <Frogzoo> P4ndaman: if you want to suspend, 1.5x ram
[02:41] <kekko_> does somebody knows how to create a folder from variable with lftp?
[02:41] <kekko_> something like mkdir $1
[02:41] <P4ndaman> sorry, im kinda knew to linux, what does suspend mean?
[02:42] <Frogzoo> WildCard: dpkg -l xserver-xorg
[02:42] <WildCard> k
[02:42] <phrowzen> anyone?
[02:42] <bimberi> phrowzen: samba shares?
[02:42] <SaveFerris> jrib: Last night I did a massive upgrade in synaptic, because I'm retarded, and it upgraded my linux kernel, but I didn't update my nvidia kernel and for some really strange reason I can't get apt-get install nvidia-xgl to work, and yes, I've added the universe repositories.
[02:42] <Frogzoo> phrowzen: if you're using samba, you need to set a samba passwd with smbpasswd
[02:42] <phrowzen> bimberi, i believe so. i goto system->administrator->sharing to choose my shared network folders. the other pc sees the shares, but l/p is refused
[02:42] <bimberi> phrowzen: you need to set up a samba password: 'sudo smbpaswd -a <yourusername>'
[02:42] <phrowzen> Frogzoo, ok, thanks
[02:43] <phrowzen> thx
[02:43] <jrib> SaveFerris: can you boot the old kernel?
[02:43] <WildCard> Frogzoo: "dpkg unknown option -1"
[02:43] <P4ndaman> Frogzoo: what do you mean by suspend?
[02:43] <bimberi> phrowzen: oops typo: smbpasswd
[02:43] <Frogzoo> WildCard: l as in lion, not 1 as in one
[02:43] <d4rk_hun7er> /j #brasil
[02:43] <WildCard> ooooo
[02:43] <d4rk_hun7er> lol
[02:43] <WildCard> lol
[02:43] <SaveFerris> jrib: it still says Xserver fails and won't load even on the old kernel
[02:43] <d4rk_hun7er> sorry
[02:44] <SaveFerris> jrib: I'm about to just reinstall the whole bleeping thing
[02:44] <elias_> could anyone tell me how to deactivate grub or delete it?
[02:44] <WildCard> Frogzoo: "No packages found matching xserver-xorg" -_-"
[02:44] <^phillip> Is there a users channel that is not a help channel?
[02:44] <jrib> SaveFerris: hmm, you have linux-restriced-modules-$(uname -r)?  To answer your question, you can mount the partition and chroot to it using the livecd, but it won't be much different than having a terminal without X now
[02:44] <kitche> ^phillip: #ubuntu-offtopic
[02:44] <P4ndaman> oh so suspend means hibernate ok ok
[02:45] <^phillip> thanks
[02:45] <Frogzoo> WildCard: at this point, I can only suggest reinstall - maybe d/l edgy
[02:45] <renay> anyone know why I can't get libtoolize from Synaptic?
[02:45] <WildCard> =/
[02:45] <P4ndaman> I would just like to thank everyone for helping a case like me :)
[02:45] <Frogzoo> P4ndaman: suspend means hibernate only if you're sloppy in  your terminology, my bad
[02:45] <P4ndaman> ok
[02:45] <P4ndaman> i just googled it
[02:45] <SaveFerris> jrib: But what I was thinking was if i can just download the driver with the live cd and do whatever it is you just said to save the driver, then i could just install the driver from the recovery terminal
[02:46] <jrib> renay: how are you trying to get it?  It should be in the "libtool" package
[02:46] <jrib> !libtool | renay
[02:46] <ubotu> renay: libtool: Generic library support script. In component main, is optional. Version 1.5.22-4 (edgy), package size 320 kB, installed size 928 kB
[02:46] <SaveFerris> jrib: whent i do startx in the terminal it says that there is simply no nvidia module
[02:46] <renay> excellent
[02:46] <renay> sorry to be stupid
[02:46] <WildCard> ty frogzoo
[02:46] <oreth> oh god
[02:46] <oreth> why
[02:46] <Frogzoo> WildCard: yw
[02:46] <SaveFerris> (btw #nvidia is quite unhelpful)
[02:47] <Vilhelms> For some reason none of my keyboard shortcuts in gnome are working :(
[02:47] <WildCard> umm
[02:47] <jrib> SaveFerris: but you already have a terminal without using the livecd right?
[02:48] <jrib> Frogzoo: btw, if you recall I couldn't get internet access the other day... turns out I just needed to turn off my modem and turn it back on.  It seems to remember mac addresses and I had just plugged it into my modem...
[02:49] <Talaman> "the greeting application appears to be crashing" is the error i get
[02:50] <Frogzoo> jrib: zomg, the pain
[02:50] <jrib> s/modem/laptop if you want that to make sense :)
[02:51] <Owner> On my other computer, I can't boot any operating system. After I start up the computer, there's is an error 22 from GRUB.
[02:51] <SaveFerris> jrib: I can get to the terminal in both kernel (recovery) versions
[02:51] <atlanta800> I just installed the mozilla-mplayer plugin, and audio works, however embedded audio doesn't repeat like it shoud (like in ytmnd's) how do I get it to repeat?
[02:52] <SaveFerris> jrib: but just a blank, non-responsive prompt after the normal kernel boots and shuts down X
[02:52] <jrib> SaveFerris: oh, even at ctrl-alt-f1?
[02:53] <elias_> again, could anyone tell me how to deactivate grub or delete it?
[02:54] <hdxx> does anyne try gnome 2.18 beta?
[02:54] <atlanta800> elias_, install a different bootloader, if you want to revert to revert to windows bootloader, run the setup disk and tell it you want to repair and then enter "fixboot"
[02:54] <andre> anyone know when blender 2.43 is to be included in ubuntu?
[02:54] <ablyss> Owner: grub-install /dev/hda0 << where /dev/hda0 is the first disk .  Wil reinstall grub
[02:55] <WildCard> k, its installing the base system right now...
[02:55] <oreth> Ok: got my printer installed. It's shared with cups, but the XP machine freaks out EVERYTIME it tries to connect
[02:55] <oreth> what's going on?
[02:56] <Talaman> "the greeting application appears to be crashing" is the error i get. also i get $ sudo gdmsetup
[02:56] <Talaman>   Failed to connect to socket, sleep 1 second and retry
[02:56] <Talaman>   Trying failed command again.  Try 2 of 5.

[02:56] <Talaman>   Command failed 5 times, aborting.
[02:56] <elias_> My problem is that when I run my recovery disk, everything goes fine. Until it tells me to take out the cd's and reboot. Then GRUB loads, even though the recovery disk erase all partitions, and give me the "GRUB Error 17"
[02:56] <Talaman> Could not access GDM configuration file.
[02:56] <bimberi> andre: it might make feisty, currently 2.42a.  I don't think feisty is at version freeze yet

[03:00] <georgy>  The -i (simulate initial login)
[03:00] <foxiness> elias_, go to the url and with on coffee + mailk and find out "read"

[03:13] <oreth> can anyone suggest a good Coding interface?
[03:13] <jrib> oreth: a text editor

[03:14] <Frogzoo> oreth: emacs
[03:14] <kitche> sgtmattbaker: ##c++
[03:14] <IronCitadel> D4rkly - I think if you change your fstab options to mount "default" that will solve your problem.
[03:14] <kitche> foxiness: setup (hd0) puts it on mbr
