[00:00] <deflated> babo: I think it's not possible but maybe there's a module for it.
[00:00] <deflated> CelticLord, bonne nuit
[00:00] <sveakex> Soleone: i grew tired of xfce really fast, especially when it destroyed how everything looked like when i installed some gnomelibs
[00:01] <charles|64> Adpad: it doesnt register my keys
[00:01] <Soleone> sveakex: i am really looking forward to KDE 4
[00:01] <Adpad> charles|64: in amarok it didn't register them when you tried to setup the shortcut?
[00:01] <charles|64> Adpad: correct
[00:02] <xlriut> Hello, when I type xbacklight -inc 10%, it sometimes decreases 10% instead. What might be the problem? Thanks.
[00:02] <hischild> charles|64, amarok doesn't see global shortcuts. use windows z till b for it instead.
[00:02] <Adpad> charles|64: go to system -> pref -> keyboard -> layouts and tell me which keyboard model is selected?
[00:02] <Adpad> hischild: it works for my keyboard - logitech mx5000
[00:02] <sami> hello
[00:02] <sveakex> Soleone: download the kde4 live cd from their website to have a real look at it ;)
[00:03] <StPatrick> GIn,  When I try to use compiz, it won't load, and i have trouble getting a game to work, that should be working in linux
[00:03] <hischild> Adpad, by default amarok won't accept global multimedia shortcuts.
[00:03] <sveakex> Soleone: i haven't seen kde4 irl, it looks good, but i am probably going to stick with gnome
[00:03] <Soleone> sveakex: i have. but i did not install it, so i had to 3d effects, still very nice and shiny
[00:03] <charles|64> Adpad: generic
[00:03] <sveakex> Soleone: since i like how it looks like and i use gtk programs mostly
[00:03] <sveakex> Soleone: hehe :)
[00:03] <GIn> StPatrick: what card is it?
[00:04] <sveakex> Soleone: so which file browser are you going to test now?
[00:04] <Adpad> charles|64: I read some posts on the forums that said that changing that through the Choose option fixed audio shortcuts
[00:04] <ponygirl> What are you looking for?
[00:04] <herby_> how can someone upgrade compiz to a more featured version than the default desktop fx?
[00:04] <StPatrick> GIn,  I have NO idea, lmao.... give me a minute to look it up. I can tell you my lappy is a Toshiba Satellite A205-S5800
[00:04] <Adpad> charles|64: you can try to choose one of the Logitech ones and see if that helps
[00:04] <hischild> anyway, good luck folks and till soon.
[00:04] <charles|64> Adpad: what keyboard do you have selected in the keyboard
[00:04] <Adpad> I use "Logitech Cordless Desktop Pro"
[00:05] <Shii> how do i get the unarchiver to support RAR?
[00:05] <Free_Bull> hi
[00:05] <Adpad> charles|64: but that's for the logitech MX5000
[00:05] <tim___> Which console fonts are you using? I like terminus but it doesn't support bold text in font size 10.
[00:05] <eduardo> whats the b.est mp3 downloader for ubuntu?
[00:05] <Adpad> charles|64: you can also try another generic one - I read on one particular post that it helped someone enable their multimedia keys...
[00:05] <Shii> eduardo: wget
[00:05] <sveakex> tim___: i am using the ubuntu default
[00:05] <Soleone> sveakex: Krusader. just installed. looks promising
[00:05] <svu> compiz cannot acquire compositing manager. wtf?
[00:05] <sveakex> tim___: at size 11 i think
[00:05] <eduardo> Shii: what do you mean with wget?
[00:05] <charles|64> Adpad: i think i got it hang on
[00:05] <JeNnA> Hello
[00:05] <Adpad> charles|64: excellent, what did you change?
[00:05] <Shii> eduardo: you mean a way to download .mp3 files on the web, right?
[00:06] <sveakex> Soleone: can you link me a screenshot? i am a bit lazy x)
[00:06] <eduardo> Shii: yes
[00:06] <habernet> sorry guys..what do i do to install ccsm in terminal again
[00:06] <habernet> ?
[00:06] <eduardo> Shii: something like limewire..
[00:06] <Shii> lol
[00:06] <dakira> does anyone know how to get debs of older wine releases? the current one is 0.9.59.. I'd really like to have 0.9.58.. any clues?
[00:06] <charles|64> Adpad: the keyboard type to a logitech
[00:06] <Shii> well, limewire works on ubuntu
[00:06] <tim___> sveakex: Thanks, but Monospace is ugly. I use the console for nearly everything and monospace is hard to read.
[00:06] <Soleone> sveakex: yea, wait a minute. i will look at the features
[00:06] <Adpad> charles|64: excellent - is it working?
[00:06] <eduardo> Shii: i know but i think limewire has something to do with my random user log off
[00:06] <sveakex> tim___: what did you say you use again? i might give it a try
[00:07] <charles|64> Adpad: dunno yet still setting keys lol ill let you know in a sec
[00:07] <sveakex> Soleone: thanks :)
[00:07] <tim___> sveakex: I'm using terminus.
[00:07] <t1n0m3n> how do I start the restricted manager?
[00:07] <Adpad> cool
[00:07] <Shii> eduardo: hmm... i don't know how to diagnose java problems, but you should ask about that
[00:07] <lordleemo> dakira: http://wine.budgetdedicated.com/archive/index.html
[00:07] <Shii> it might affect other software
[00:07] <sveakex> t1n0m3n: bläh, i don't have that one installed. :(

[00:08] <sveakex> eduardo: i can query you about that ok?

[00:09] <StPatrick> GIn,  I cant seem to find it in my hardware info list

[00:09] <eduardo> sveakex: i dunno how to use wget to download music
[00:09] <Shii> eduardo: well... you know... just find a friend with more music than you and set them up with an http server
[00:09] <Shii> then you can wget it :)
[00:09] <tim___> sveakex: Thanks, I'll try it out.
[00:09] <dakira> lordleemo: thx!
[00:09] <Free_Bull> I'm trying to install linux on one of my computers, but when I but in the disk, it loads linux, i press start/install ubuntu and i get to a tan screen with a mouse and nothing else happens

[00:09] <lordleemo> dakira: your welcome
[00:10] <bastid_raZor> eduardo; where is the music you are trying to download? like a .torrent? or from a server somewhere?
[00:10] <Adpad> charles|64: excellent, I know how to fix that I think
[00:10] <sveakex> tim___: just beware of all the extreme colors, i turned almost all of them off
[00:10] <tim___> Shii: My favorite downloading manager is aria2.
[00:10] <cockroack> hello

[00:10] <charles|64> Adpad: really im all ears
[00:10] <eduardo> bastid_raZor: is trying to find another mp3 downloader rather than limewire
[00:10] <Shii> tim___: thanks for the tip, i couldn't find a gui
[00:10] <Adpad> charles|64: in the Amarok Global Shortcuts - is that where you enabled your other keys?
[00:10] <eduardo> bastid_raZor: I'm*
[00:10] <charles|64> Adpad: yeah
[00:10] <bastid_raZor> eduardo; use a torrent program.. like transmission or deluge or even ktorrent
[00:10] <cockroack> I am having some problms with mounting my media drives
[00:11] <Adpad> charles|64: essentially, you should try disable Play and Pause there (in terms of shortcut keys) and enable ONLY the Play/Pause option with your media key
[00:11] <cockroack> it says
[00:11] <cockroack> Mounting /media/Amuse failed.

[00:12] <phil_> hey guys, how do i install comiz fusion manager thing in terminal??
[00:12] <CorbinFox> free_bull: what kind of computer?  either way, i think i had a similar problem that the boot command "noapic nolapic" fixed up
[00:12] <cockroack> because i dont have any external device in my system
[00:12] <sveakex> eduardo: read my query
[00:12] <Adpad> charles|64: okay, ensure that that specific media key isn't being used for any other shortcut -- either in amarok or in your system -> pref -> keyboard shortcuts
[00:12] <eduardo> sveakex: where?
[00:12] <tim1> sveakex: Thanks for the tip. WeeChat looks much better than irssi.
[00:12] <GIn> StPatrick: sudo apt-get install libgl1-mesa-dri  and then restart X (logoff and login back )
[00:13]  * eduardo loves irssi.

[00:13] <StPatrick> GIn,
[00:13] <gluer> shii: set that up with mp3.com ;-)
[00:13] <charles|64> Adpad: YOU SO ROCK!!!
[00:13] <GIn> StPatrick: that should fix the porblem according to this http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=583081]
[00:13] <StPatrick> GIn,  Ok, just a sec
[00:13] <cockroack> hello
[00:13] <Adpad> charles|64: hehe, excellent, glad I could help dude :)
[00:13] <progmano2> Free_Bull: use the alternate install disc http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/download
[00:13] <Soleone> sveakex: screenshots coming up...
[00:13] <sveakex> tim1: yeah, i use it mostly because i can configure it easily to connect to the servers i want to (irssi can that aswell probably but i didn't bother to learn), and it has a userlist on the right
[00:13] <phil_> what is the command to install ccsm in terminal??

[00:14] <srodden> Hi, anyone have a working vanilla 7.10? I need a copy of the /etc/gdm/PreSession/Default file *blush*
[00:14] <sveakex> eduardo: you should see act and a number
[00:14] <Free_Bull> aww, ok, i'll go download and burn it and try that
[00:14] <phil_> bastid_razor ?? i didnt get anything from ubotu
[00:14] <Free_Bull> thanks for the help
[00:14] <sveakex> eduardo: press alt and then that number at the same time
[00:14] <sveakex> you can try different numbers
[00:14] <rafiux> hello

[00:15] <StPatrick> GIn,  Says its already the newest version
[00:15] <matthew_> The package manager isn't installing the php5.load and php5.conf files when I try to install the php5 modual for apache
[00:15] <matthew_> It installs everything else

[00:15] <herby_> ubotu, what features does it add to compiz?
[00:15] <phil_> thanks

[00:16] <tim___> bye
[00:16] <sveakex> Soleone: looks good, midnightcommander is similar, just that is in the terminal instead :)
[00:16] <eduardo> matthew_: have u tried installing them from terminal?
[00:16] <matthew_> no
[00:16] <matthew_> whats the command?
[00:16] <sveakex> tim1: you can change it in the configuration file
[00:16] <eduardo> matthew_: sudo apt-get install filename
[00:16] <matthew_> k
[00:16] <matthew_> I'll try that
[00:16] <sveakex> tim1: i really changed loads in there, added servers, disabled 95% of all the colors
[00:16] <sveakex> :P
[00:16] <Soleone> sveakex: i somehow dislike console mode for editors and file managers
[00:16] <eduardo> matthew_:  :)

[00:17] <Kenshi_> Queria avisar a vocês que tem gente vendendo cds de Ubuntu Linux no MERCADO LIVRE.
[00:17] <tim1> sveakex: The configuration file doesn't seem to be created automatically, does it?
[00:17] <krim> I used to use the negative thingy on Compiz at night so it wouldn't be like staring into a lightbulb but now I switched to Darklooks theme which makes the colours look alright, but is there a way to make the white background on pages I visit with Firefox into black?
[00:17] <cockroack> hello, if i do the mount by force, is there any possibilities of ruining my data?
[00:17] <Adpad> charles|64: hmmm ;)  My keyboard also has a zoom button - let me check out compiz shortcuts, one second
[00:17] <GIn> StPatrick: what does the command glxinfo tell you?
[00:18] <sveakex> tim1: it is created automatically, or it did for me, ~/.weechat/weechat.rc
[00:18] <charles|64> Adpad: kool
[00:18] <charles|64> Adpad: im going to pm you
[00:18] <sveakex> tim1: is the location i think, atleast the folder should be correct
[00:18] <eduardo> Kenshi is saying that there's people selling ubuntu cds on www.mercadolibre.com
[00:18] <sveakex> eduardo: did you see my query yet?
[00:18] <Adpad> charles|64: I won't be able to respond - nickname not registered ;) let's chat here rather?
[00:18] <tim1> sveakex: yeah, you're right. thanks
[00:18] <eduardo> sveakex: yeah, and i aswered it
[00:18] <charles|64> Adpad: kool
[00:18] <StPatrick> GIn,  a bunch of numbers?
[00:19] <StPatrick> GIn,  And all kinds of other tings
[00:19] <GIn> StPatrick: try glxinfo | grep direct
[00:19] <Soleone> sveakex: that is actually true, haven't thought of that
[00:19] <StPatrick> GIn,  Thanks for tryin to help man, Im gonna have to try to deal with it later. I gotta get going.
[00:19] <GIn> StPatrick: g'luck ;)
[00:19] <Kenshi_> Guys, i said that there are people SELLING Ubuntu Linux cds on our local eBay.
[00:20] <Soleone> sveakex: i think i will install midnightcommander on my server
[00:20] <sveakex> Soleone: hehe :)
[00:20] <StPatrick> GIn,  Thanks, Chief. Ill be back later. I want Compiz working, I know it'll work with my card, cause it worked in Mandriva.
[00:20] <Soleone> sveakex: after i fix my apt-get problem :)
[00:20] <eduardo> does anyone know an msn messenger application which will let me chat on "invisible" status?
[00:20] <Kenshi_> ...
[00:20] <sveakex> Soleone: what's up with apt-get?
[00:20] <Soleone> sveakex: i accidently deleted everything under /etc/apt/cache
[00:20] <JUANZITO> HOLA
[00:20] <StPatrick> eduardo, Pidgin
[00:20] <matthew_> nope, php5.load and php5.conf still do not exist, even though libapache2-mod-php5 lists them as intalled files
[00:20] <Shii> is there a hotplug kind of application i can activate so i can use my MP3 player?
[00:20] <sveakex> Soleone: try "sudo apt-get update"
[00:21] <eduardo> StPatrick: that wont let me talk on invisible status
[00:21] <matthew_> could the package me messed up?
[00:21] <Adpad> charles|64: I don't think you can use media keys in compiz - I might be wrong -- you can try manually mapping it if you can find a way on the web -- to find out what it maps to, try assigning the particular button to something else in the keyboard shortcuts we were talking about earlier
[00:21] <Shii> the USB seems to be supplying power but it doesn't talk to ubuntu
[00:21] <StPatrick> eduardo,  It lets me.
[00:21] <tim1> sveakex: I used rhapsody before. It has a really nice ncurses GUI but there seems not to be any development on it.
[00:21] <charles|64> Adpad: kool man thanks
[00:21] <eduardo> matthew_: whats the prob matty
[00:21] <Adpad> charles|64: no prob at all
[00:21] <GIn> eduardo: try emesene
[00:22] <matthew_> i'm trying to get php5 on my apache2 server, but I can't get the php5.load and php5.conf files
[00:22] <Adpad> I have a problem with my video playback with NVIDIA - nvidia-glx-new drivers - the video just conks in and becomes garbled --can anyone help?
[00:22] <sveakex> tim1: hehe, i like weechat and irssi
[00:22] <matthew_> they are part of libapache2-mod-php5
[00:22] <eduardo> GIn: thx
[00:22] <matthew_> and it says it has them installed
[00:22] <matthew_> but they aren't there.
[00:22] <GIn> eduardo: u can get it at http://www.getdeb.net/
[00:22] <eduardo> matthew_: reboot after installing and see what happens
[00:22] <tim1> matthew_: I prefer LightTPD, it's easier to set up and much faster. YouTube is also using a modified version of it.
[00:23] <GIn> eduardo: don't think it is in the repo, but check the repo first, if not , go to http://www.getdeb.net/
[00:23] <tim1> matthew_: You don't need to restart.
[00:23] <Dr_willis> Adpad,  i belive theres a bit of a bug with the nvidia drivers and video playvback that can cause that issue I had similer issue on one of my machines. It would play vidoes fine for a while.  even days.. then it would get all blocky/garbled but sound still worked.
[00:23] <tim1> matthew_: You need to restart the apache server: /etc/init.d/apache restart I think.
[00:23] <Soleone> sveakex: yea. i made a typo i deleted another directory: E: Archive directory /var/cache/apt/archives/partial is missing.
[00:23] <matthew_> timl: Can it support php5?
[00:23] <Dr_willis> Adpad,  Im using Hardy Now - it has newer nvidia drivers. Not seen the issue under it.
[00:24] <Shii> how do i mount my mp3 player? :/
[00:24] <Kenshi_> Well anyone knows if Hardy solves that firefox slowdown problem that happens when compiz is enabled with ATI cards?
[00:24] <Soleone> sveakex: i accidently deleted everything in /var/cache/apt
[00:24] <tim1> Shii: With mount.
[00:24] <Adpad> Dr_willis: that's exactly what happens to me -- excellent - so I can expect hardy to probably fix the issue?
[00:24] <tim1> matthew_: Yes it does.
[00:24] <Shii> but it's a USB player...
[00:24] <Adpad> Dr_willis: so I'll wait for April 25 ;) Thanks a lot
[00:24] <sveakex> tim1: this is hilarious, i went here so i could check out what fonts the ubuntu terminal uses by default so i can apply it to my gentoo desktop, and now i end up helping about 3 people :P
[00:24] <eduardo> GIn: yeah, its not in the repo
[00:24] <matthew_> Out of the box? or what package?
[00:24] <Kenshi_> The beta does?
[00:24] <Dr_willis> Adpad,  yep. I never did see any real info on the bug. just lots of reports on it.
[00:24] <tim1> matthew_: My LightTPD server is now running for about 3 months without any problems.
[00:24] <Adpad> Dr_willis: same thing here :/
[00:24] <sveakex> Soleone: what happened when you tried to update apt like i told you to?
[00:24] <GIn> eduardo: http://getdeb.net/search.php?keywords=emesene
[00:25] <Soleone> the error i told you
[00:25] <matthew_> timl: Does it support php5 out of the box? Or what package do I need?
[00:25] <tim1> sveakex: Hehe. I know this. :D
[00:25] <Dr_willis> Adpad,  it seems that the nvidia 'universial' drivers dont always work with the same named cards/chips :( Gettng to be a lot of varity in the nvidia cards even witht he same ##
[00:25] <tim1> matthew_: You need to install the php5-cgi package.
[00:25] <matthew_> ok
[00:25] <Soleone> sveakex:  Archive directory /var/cache/apt/archives/partial is missing.
[00:25] <matthew_> I'll try that
[00:25] <matthew_> thanks!
[00:26] <sveakex> Soleone: ok, let me have a good think
[00:26] <tim1> matthew_: After having installed it, you need to go to the configuration file and enable the module.
[00:26] <matthew_> ok
[00:26] <rZog> hi, i just have a problem with installing ubuntu.. the installer doesnt detect all my partitions.. it just detects my hd. winxp is abel to detect all partitions correct. does someone has any idea what exactly is broken ?
[00:26] <Shii> i have no idea what command to run to make ubuntu recognize a USB device.
[00:26] <eduardo> does anybody know any tweaks to enhance navigation speed?
[00:26] <Adpad> Dr_willis:  it's a pity :( also had difficulty getting dual monitors to wrok - still haven't managed. I'm hoping hardy will fix these problems!
[00:26] <sveakex> tim1: hehe, i like ubuntu though on computers i don't want to configure :P
[00:27] <tim1> Shii: Yes, MP3 players are nothing else than an external drive.
[00:27] <sveakex> tim1: like laptops, i hate configuring laptops
[00:27] <matthew_> timl: Where is the config file?
[00:27] <Shii> yup. i set it up that way. but i plug it in and nothing happens.
[00:27] <bastid_raZor> eduardo; use command line instead of the GUI to browse.. MUCH faster
[00:27] <Soleone> sveakex: thanks
[00:27] <tim1> sveakex: Me too. :)
[00:28] <kdorf> Shii: type "lsusb" in command line to see if ubuntu detected your device
[00:28] <sveakex> Soleone: alright, i know what to do "sudo mkdir /var/cache/apt/archives/partial && sudo apt-get update"
[00:28] <Shii> thanks
[00:28] <eduardo> bastid_raZor: idk why my navigation slowed down this much im sownloading @ 25kb/s with a 1mbit connection
[00:28] <tim1> matthew_: Ok, type in: sudo lighty-enable-mod fastcgi
[00:28] <kdorf> If it did, that's a good thing 'cause you can mount it manually
[00:28] <sveakex> Soleone: obviously without the ""
[00:28] <Shii> oh... it only sees 3 USB drives. how sad :(
[00:28] <Dr_willis> Adpad,  multi monitor - ive had no issues with. I enable twniview with the nvidia config tools. and away it goes
[00:28] <tim1> matthew_: And then go to /etc/lighttpd/conf-available/10-fastcgi.conf
[00:28] <Soleone> sveakex: thx, i'll try
[00:28] <kdorf> Is one port bad possibly?
[00:28] <sveakex> tim1: hehe, what do you use on your desktop?
[00:28] <srodden> Anyone know why I get a kernel panic in the VM when trying to install a Gutsy VM?
[00:28] <bastid_raZor> eduardo; oh.. navigation.. i didn't relate navigation with browsing the internet..
[00:29] <tim1> sveakex: You mean, which window manager I'm using?
[00:29] <tim1> sveakex: I'm using wmii.
[00:29] <Adpad> Dr_willis: which nvidia config tools - how do you access them? ;)
[00:29] <eduardo> bastid_raZor: my bad
[00:29] <sveakex> tim1: which os
[00:29] <tim1> sveakex: Ubuntu Hardy Heron. :)
[00:29] <sveakex> tim1: hehe, which version number is that? :p
[00:29] <tim1> sveakex: 8.10 I think :D
[00:30] <bastid_raZor> eduardo; using limewire though.. you've probably had your ip tracked and are now being throttled by your ISP
[00:30] <matthew_> timl: Then do I just force reload on the server?
[00:30] <Soleone> sveakex: woohoo, thanks a lot (though i could've just tried myself making the dir :)
[00:30] <sveakex> tim1: 8.10!? 8.10 will be realesed in 2008 october
[00:30] <tim1> matthew_: In /etc/init.d there's a file called lighttpd.
[00:30] <sveakex> Soleone: you're welcome :)
[00:30] <Shii> thanks for your help timl, looks like only 2 of my 4 USB ports work :)
[00:30] <eduardo> bastid_raZor: anyway to fix that?
[00:30] <Soleone> sveakex: looking deeper into Krusader, i must say, this is definitely the best file manager i could think of
[00:30] <tim1> sveakex: Really? How can I check the version number?
[00:31] <sveakex> tim1: try doing a "uname -a"
[00:31] <Kenshi_> Hardy's restricted drivers for ATI cards support AIGLX?
[00:31] <tim1> sveakex: It's still beta but it will be relased in one month or something.
[00:31] <Kenshi_> Or i have to install the official ATI?
[00:31] <sveakex> Soleone: hehe, i am satisfied with nautilus or just using a terminal :P
[00:31] <J-Unit> wen will hardy be available thru shipit?
[00:31] <tim1> sveakex: This will show up the kernel version.
[00:31] <KrimZon> what package should contain libGL.a in hardy?
[00:31] <matthew_> timl: Ok, I have it open
[00:31] <sveakex> tim1: hm, 8.04 well be released in 12 days (about)
[00:32] <icesword> hardy heron .goes out
[00:32] <bastid_raZor> eduardo; call your ISP.. but i don't that is the case.. i'm justing being cynical. not sure why your connection would slow.. possibly your upload is maxed out?
[00:32] <Soleone> sveakex: i already have midnight commander installed on my server, that's cool. thanks for the pointing to it
[00:32] <tim1> J-Unit: Good question. I hope it will be available soon. The last time I ordered some CDs it took me about one month.
[00:32] <tim1> sveakex: Yeah, that's what I've installed here. :)
[00:32] <sveakex> Soleone: you're welcome, is it an ubuntu server?
[00:33] <srodden> Where can I get a copy of a vanilla 7.10 /etc/gdm/PreSession/Default please?
[00:33] <sveakex> tim1: the version numbers work this: 8(year).04(month)
[00:33] <Soleone> sveakex: no just debian 4 i think
[00:33] <scottyL> I'm following an installation guide for 7.10 Server, and I just finished installing the basic LAMP package
[00:33] <sveakex> tim1: therefore 8.04 will be released in april 2008
[00:33] <tim1> matthew_: I forgot to say that you need to edit the file /etc/lighttpd/conf-available/10-fastcgi.conf in which /usr/bin/php5-cgi must be replaced by /usr/bin/php5-cgi.
[00:33] <Soleone> sveakex: how can i print the version of the OS?
[00:34] <scottyL> It's telling me to set up a static IP
[00:34] <tim1> sveakex: Sorry, I didn't know that.
[00:34] <scottyL> Is that important?
[00:34] <sveakex> tim1: i know you didn't, that is why i told you :)
[00:34] <DarkJustice> Can anyone tell me where I can find a tutorial or something to get my AC'97 card to use 5.1 channel sound on ubuntu?
[00:34] <phil_> when i put a cd into my drive..nothing happens, also all programs say that they cannot find a cdrom drive, what do i do to fix this?
[00:34] <tim1> sveakex:  :)
[00:34] <sveakex> Soleone: uname -a might, otherwise i wouldn't know
[00:34] <IndyGunFreak> DarkJustice: whats the exact device?
[00:34] <rZog> hi, i just have a problem with installing ubuntu.. the installer doesnt detect all my partitions.. it just detects my hd. winxp is abel to detect all partitions correct. does someone has any idea what exactly is broken ?
[00:34] <danand_> Soleone - lsb_release -a
[00:34] <Soleone> sveakex: Linux vs1814 <IP_ADDRESS> #2 SMP Tue Oct 23 22:39:08 CEST 2007 x86_64 GNU/Linux
[00:35] <DarkJustice> IndyGunFreak: at the moment I'm not sure, my son is watching a movie on that box.. is there a way I can ssh in and find out in a terminal?
[00:35] <tim1> rZog: I had a similar problem. You can recover it using TestDisk.
[00:35] <IndyGunFreak> DarkJustice: i have no idea... how is he watching a movie w/o sound?
[00:35] <Soleone> danand_: vs1814:/home/soleone# lsb_release -a
[00:35] <Soleone> bash: lsb_release: command not found
[00:35] <GIn> Soleone: cat /etc/lsb-release
[00:35] <bastid_raZor> !version
[00:35] <ubotu> To find out what version of Ubuntu you have, type « lsb_release -a » in a !shell
[00:35] <Soleone> ah thx
[00:35] <J-Unit> tim1, well i get them faster actually :)
[00:35] <DarkJustice> IndyGunFreak: i have sound but only on two speakers, and i'ts real low, they worked great on winbloze
[00:35] <tim1> J-Unit: Where do you live?
[00:35] <IndyGunFreak> DarkJustice: hmm, no clue...
[00:35] <sveakex> Soleone: ubotu just said it!
[00:35] <J-Unit> tim1, canada
[00:35] <IndyGunFreak> !sound | DarkJustice  maybe this will help
[00:35] <ubotu> DarkJustice  maybe this will help: 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/DmixPlugin - For playing audio files, see !Players and !MP3
[00:36] <DarkJustice> thanks
[00:36] <xlriut> Does anyone know what might be controlling the fonts within <pre></pre> tags on websites? I've been changing some font settings and the font between <pre></pre> tags now looks messed up. Thanks.
[00:36] <Soleone> sveakex: i don't have Ubuntu on my server, just debian
[00:36] <tim1> J-Unit: They are shipped from the Netherlands as far I know. I'm living in Germany so it shouldn't take longer than 5 days.
[00:36] <KrimZon> aha, nvidia-glx-new-dev for me
[00:36] <Adpad> Dr_willis: do you mean the standard video options in Ubuntu or is there a special NVIDIA package for config?
[00:36] <Soleone> GIn: /etc/lsb_release is not there
[00:36] <capiCrimm> xlriut, css? that's the only thing
[00:36] <sveakex> Soleone: aha, go to #debian , i actualled asked that once there, there is a specific command for that
[00:37] <roxazer> sveakex: hello
[00:37] <roxazer> :)
[00:37] <sveakex> roxazer: who are you?! :O
[00:37] <sveakex> xD
[00:37] <GIn> Soleone: then lsb_release -a
[00:37] <sveakex> roxazer: what's up?
[00:37] <roxazer> sveakex: im a pedofile!
[00:37] <Gnine> !html

[00:37] <tim1> xlriut: You can also use the font tag but I recommend CSS.
[00:37] <roxazer> sveakex: im haxxing my ubuntu
[00:37] <Soleone> GIn: command not found
[00:37] <sveakex> roxazer: zomg, don't get me kicked
[00:37] <J-Unit> tim1, well its 2 weeks for me unless im f***ed in the head or sumtin
[00:37] <GIn> Soleone: erm, that command should be there
[00:37] <roxazer> sveakex: ubuntu is the loviest distro i ever used
[00:38] <roxazer> much better than shitgentoo :o
[00:38] <Soleone> GIn: remember I'm just on debian, not ubuntu
[00:38] <Dr_willis> Adpad,  nvidia has had its own command line based config tool for ages.. Just no one ever notices it. :)
[00:38] <sveakex> roxazer: i know you use archlinux, lägg ner nu, det är inte kul :/
[00:38] <danand_> Soleone - sudo apt-get -s install lsb-release
[00:38] <xlriut> capiCrimm, tim1, no the problem is caused by some system font setting, I believe, oddly enough. I'm not sure what I messed up though. Even website fonts are different.
[00:38] <GIn> Soleone: this is #ubuntu, :\ ask in #debian ;)
[00:38] <Gnine> !language
[00:38] <ubotu> Please watch your language and topic to help keep this channel family friendly.
[00:38] <Adpad> Dr_willis: ah! hehe, can you tell me how to access it? is it nvidia-config ?
[00:38] <tim1> J-Unit: Lucky you.
[00:38] <xlriut> I know this because I have another computer where the website fonts look completely different.
[00:38] <roxazer> sveakex: its fucking awsome fun :)
[00:39] <sveakex> roxazer: :(
[00:39] <roxazer> sveakex: and here we talk english!
[00:39] <sveakex> roxazer: your english is much better than last time
[00:39] <tim1> xlriut: Perhaps the website is using a windows font which isn't installed.
[00:39] <Dr_willis> Adpad,  nvidia<tab>  use the -A option to see the full options. Litterally the thing has been around since dapper-drake at least. :) I first discovered it mentioned in the ubuntu-hacks book
[00:39] <roxazer> sveakex: yee, im cleared up in the head atm
[00:39] <capiCrimm> xlriut, I'm not even sure that's possible. Unless pre tags request a certain class of text by default that you changed. In which case you're answer will be the css defaults
[00:39] <sveakex> Soleone: #debian knows about debian things :P
[00:39] <eduardo> roxazer: where u from?
[00:40] <Adpad> Dr_willis:  hehe awesome, thanks a lot hey
[00:40] <capiCrimm> *or that are different
[00:40] <roxazer> eduardo: sweden
[00:40] <sveakex> roxazer: eh?
[00:40] <matthew_> tim1: I edited the /etc/lighttpd/conf-available file
[00:40] <mc-george> guys, whats a good dvd encoding program similar to converxtodvd?
[00:40] <roxazer> sveakex: what?
[00:40] <sveakex> roxazer: nvm.
[00:40] <matthew_> tim1: Now what do I do?
[00:40] <Soleone> sveakex: thx, i'm asking
[00:40] <roxazer> okey
[00:40] <tim1> matthew_: Ok, then restart or reload the server.
[00:40] <J-Unit> tim1, well im patient no matter how long it takes...i was more concerned of wen i can order it to get it off my head, as soon as i no that canonical will ship it, i dont worry bout it any longer but i need to at least no that ive requested it if u no wat i mean...i guess its a psychological thing
[00:40] <eduardo> roxazer: lol i have a swedish girl staying in my house for school exchange
[00:40] <xlriut> capiCrimm, well I'm asking because the font looked clearly different before I fiddled with some GTK themes / fluxbox font settings...
[00:40] <sveakex> eduardo: you better do her ;)
[00:41] <tim1> matthew_: The files are stored in /var/www/.
[00:41] <matthew_> tim1: I have the apache2 server running, you have any idea how to stop it?
[00:41] <Soleone> sveakex: cat /etc/debian_version
[00:41] <Soleone> :)
[00:41] <Adpad> Dr_willis:  nvidia-settings brings up NVIDIA X server settings, gonna try work in there
[00:41] <roxazer> eduardo: nice, have you banged her yet? :O
[00:41] <eduardo> sveakex: shes done. lol
[00:41] <sveakex> eduardo: oh! ;)
[00:41] <Adpad> lol roxazer
[00:41] <bastid_raZor> matthew_; sudo killall apache2
[00:41] <tim1> J-Unit: Hehe.
[00:41] <Gnine> !ohmy
[00:41] <ubotu> Please watch your language and topic to help keep this channel family friendly.
[00:41] <eduardo> roxazer: luckily yes..
[00:41] <Soleone> :)
[00:41] <roxazer> eduardo: yeah!
[00:42] <Soleone> men
[00:42] <roxazer> *doing the happy dance*
[00:42] <tim1> bastid_raZor: Isn't it sudo killall -9 apache2?
[00:42] <sveakex> Soleone: yup, that's correct :)
[00:42] <kdorf> so I've got a question - anyone successfully managed to burn a DVD+R DL?
[00:42] <eduardo> sveakex: i met a girl from norway on spring break and did her too :))
[00:42] <Dr_willis> Adpad,  thers 2 nvidia tools, one is command line based, other is X based.  I tend to set things up with the cli tool first, then restart X, then tweak with the Other one. I think the command WITH the X is command line .. :) one with no X in the name is the X tool.. figure that out
[00:42] <sveakex> Soleone: however i don't use deabian, i use gentoo
[00:42] <kdorf> I can't get them to burn in the nautilus plugin or brasero
[00:42] <sveakex> eduardo: haha ;D
[00:42] <eduardo> sveakex: not to be a showoff but... heh :P
[00:42] <matthew_> tim1: Sweet!!! Thank you Thank you Thank you Thank you Thank you!
[00:42] <bastid_raZor> tim1; no, -9 would be used to specify now when killing by the PID.. killall will do it fine.
[00:42] <sveakex> eduardo: "BUT!"
[00:42] <Gnine> !burn | kdorf
[00:42] <ubotu> kdorf: CD/DVD Burning software: K3b (KDE), gnomebaker, serpentine, graveman, Nautilus-CD-Burner, GToaster, xcdroast (GNOME), wodim (terminal-based). Burning .iso files: see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BurningIsoHowto
[00:43] <J-Unit> tim1, u use dial-up?
[00:43] <Adpad> Dr_willis: thanks, the one without an X is the X tool :) appreciate it - will try setup my 42" PLASMA now :D
[00:43] <kdorf> Gnine: that didn't answer my question :(
[00:43] <Soleone> sveakex: is there a good reason for that?
[00:43] <IndyGunFreak> kdorf: well what is your question
[00:43] <matthew_> w00t, now my WoW server manager is working!
[00:43] <matthew_> thanks guys!
[00:43] <kdorf> Has anybody successfully burned DVD+R DL
[00:43] <Adpad> I love compiz !:D
[00:44] <Soleone> compiz rocks, over
[00:44] <roxazer> eduardo is going to do one girl in every country!
[00:44] <IndyGunFreak> i've burned lots of DVDRs, but i've had nothing but problems w/ Brasero, so I use gnomebaker
[00:44] <Adpad> it ROCKS EGGZ :D
[00:44] <sveakex> Soleone: why i use gentoo?
[00:44] <eduardo> roxazer: i hope so :)
[00:44] <kdorf> I can burn every other media, but when I insert a double layer it just doesn't do anything but error out
[00:44] <Soleone> sveakex: yea
[00:44] <Gnine> !best
[00:44] <ubotu> Usually, there is no single "best" application to perform a given task. It's up to you to choose, depending on your preferences, features you require, and other factors. Do NOT take polls in the channel. If you insist on getting people's opinions, ask BestBot in #ubuntu-bots.
[00:45] <kdorf> IndyGunFreak: I'll try gnomebaker, but brasero and nautilus have burned DVD-Rs just fine for me, just not the double layer ones.
[00:45] <DIL> hey all i must declare linux is a bad mada socker!!
[00:45] <Daviey> DIL: sounds kinda #ubuntu-offtopic
[00:46] <sveakex> Soleone: up to date packages, all packages are optimized for your computer (source based optimization), pretty stable, fun (imo :P), and it is difficult (since i have recently migrated to gentoo from archlinux)
[00:46] <DIL> Jump fer jou Daviey
[00:46] <sveakex> Soleone: however on laptops i like ubuntu
[00:47] <sveakex> Soleone: and gentoo on server
[00:47] <sveakex> Soleone: and arch or gentoo on desktop
[00:47] <Soleone> sveakex: is gentoo similar to debian? i am kinda new to linux
[00:47] <xvc> how do i exit the current screen session?
[00:47] <sveakex> Soleone: nah, gentoo is not that similar to debian
[00:47] <Daviey> xvc: ctrl + d
[00:48] <sveakex> Soleone: if you are new then i reccomend ubuntu or maybe archlinux :)
[00:48] <Gnine> !debian
[00:48] <ubotu> Ubuntu and Debian are closely related. Ubuntu builds on the foundations of Debian architecture and infrastructure, with a different community and release process. See http://www.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/relationship - Remember, !repositories meant for Debian should NOT be used on Ubuntu!
[00:48] <xvc> Daviey: it doesn't do it
[00:48] <windio00> if i install 8.04 will it upgrade ok to stable?  im going on a trip and want to get it done before i go :p
[00:48] <tim1> matthew_: No problem.
[00:48] <xvc> i entered with screen -x 3535
[00:48] <Daviey> xvc: to 'detach' ctrl+a then d
[00:48] <sveakex> is Gnine a user or a bot?
[00:48] <tim1> bastid_raZor: Ok, thanks.
[00:48] <tim1> J-Unit: No, I have a ADSL connection. It's called DSL 16 000 here.
[00:49] <danbhfive> windio00: it will upgrade, provided no problems arise
[00:49] <sveakex> Soleone: gentoo also can takes a VERY long time to install, and installing packages takes long, since it has to compile everything
[00:49] <Falling-Inferno> Have a backup Cd ready and backup your stuff on another computer or something.
[00:49] <yippy> i've upgraded from ubuntu 7.04 (with beryl) to 7.10 and i want to reset my xorg to work properly with compiz or whatever is being used today, how to do that ?
[00:49] <sveakex> roxazer: did you fix your compiz fusion effects in your ubuntu?
[00:49] <Dr_Link|lolwut> So I have a NVidia graphics card. How do I take an S-Video cable, plug one end into a TV set, and plug the other end into the computer, and stream whatever is on the computer screen to the TV?
[00:49] <sveakex> roxazer: since i know you love eyecandy
[00:49] <tim1> sveakex: Yeah, that's why I'm using Ubuntu.
[00:49] <Dr_Link> eh
[00:49] <Dr_Link> yeah
[00:50] <sveakex> tim1: what why? :s
[00:50] <windio00> what are the minimum requirements for 8.04?  its an old computer
[00:50] <sveakex> windio00: go for xubuntu :)
[00:50] <Xupiter> does anyone have any suggestions on how to get an icon for a package to appear in the gnome menu and the desktop?
[00:50] <sveakex> windio00: 256mb ram i think
[00:50] <windio00> sveakex, thats what it has . . .
[00:51] <Dr_willis> Dr_Link,  enable twinview, and have it clone the displays is one way. with SOME nvidia cards/systems I got. YOu can power off. hook up the TV, unplug the monitor, and it will default to the tv.  no tweaking needed
[00:51] <sveakex> windio00: it might just work ;)
[00:51] <Dr_willis> !tvout | Dr_Link
[00:51] <ubotu> Dr_Link: For help with enabling the TV-Out, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/NvidiaTVOutNewbieEdition (Nvidia cards) or http://wiki.cchtml.com/index.php/Tvout (ATI cards, *untested*)
[00:51] <Daviey> windio00: if it's an old computer.. try using the alternate cd rather than the livecd - and just see how well it runs.. alternatively run xubuntu which is designed for older lower spec machines
[00:51] <Jaffarkelshac> can archive manager unrar .rar files in parts?
[00:51] <tim1> sveakex: Because it compiles everything.
[00:51] <sveakex> windio00: otherwise you might have to use the minicd and install ubuntu using the packages you want to (for example fluxbox instead of any other window manager)
[00:51] <Soleone> sveakex: i see thanks. why would you recommened archlinux? how is it comparable to debian or ubuntu?
[00:51] <Dr_willis> Jaffarkelshac,  i know that 'unrar e whatever.rar' can :) no idea about that other tool.
[00:52] <Intangir> the wine package i got for ubuntu doesnt seem to support jack audio
[00:52] <Adpad> Dr_willis: do you know how I can write a little command line script that accesses a text message website and sends a message?
[00:52] <Intangir> does anyone know why?
[00:52] <Jaffarkelshac> the file is multiple parts, its not finished downloading so i cant tell
[00:52] <tim1> sveakex: I used the alternate CD and installed the rest manually.
[00:53] <Dr_willis> Adpad,  proberly perl, or ruby  can do it. but ive never done so.
[00:53] <Adpad> ty :)
[00:53] <TelnetManta> can anyone tell me the command to view the last ### of commands entered into a terminal?
[00:53] <Jaffarkelshac> history
[00:53] <kdorf> Oh yay, Gnomebaker at least started writing my DL DVD, now to see if it actually successfully finishes! :)
[00:53] <TelnetManta> is there a file?
[00:53] <Dr_willis> TelnetManta,  to view the History.. use history. :)
[00:53] <Chardros> Intangir, did you install jackd?
[00:53] <bastid_raZor> tim1; you got killall to work right?
[00:53] <sveakex> Soleone: it is lightweight, simple (this doesn't mean easy), very update to date packages, which could make it a tad unstable sometimes, and it is optimized for x86 processors. it also doesn't install a lot of programs by default, so you will have to install gnome for instance by yourself. but it is only what i like :)
[00:53] <TelnetManta> lol
[00:53] <Dr_willis> TelnetManta,  and they are stored in .bash_history I think
[00:54] <TelnetManta> thanks, too simple
[00:54] <Intangir> Chardros: ya i installed it and played around with streaming stuff thru it, its fully setup and works
[00:54] <Intangir> alsa can use it sorta.. (not very conveniently)
[00:54] <Intangir> but wine cant seem to use it
[00:54] <Tailsfan> Hello
[00:54] <sveakex> tim1: so you use ubuntu to avoid compiling everything?
[00:54] <Intangir> wine wont use my jackinputs directly thru jack, and cant seem to use them thru alsa either
[00:54] <Soleone> sveakex: that sounds good. thanks!
[00:55] <Soleone> sveakex: will try that some time i guess. simple is always good
[00:55] <Tailsfan> This one step on some instructions I'm foloowing requires me to compile the kernel, what do you mean by this: http://pastebin.ca/981703
[00:55] <tim1> bastid_raZor: I'm always doing killall -9 <processname>. A friend told me once because I called ps aux and looked for the PID which I killed with "kill". :D
[00:55] <windio00> sveakex, should i install the beta or is there a daily update of xubuntu?
[00:55] <tim1> sveakex: Yep.
[00:55] <sveakex> windio00: hm, wait until 8.04 is realesed, which is in a week or 2.
[00:55] <tim1> sveakex: I hate compiling. That's why I like interpreting languages like PHP. :D
[00:55] <Soleone> timl: you know ruby?
[00:55] <sveakex> tim1: hehe, archlinux doesn't need to compile a lot
[00:56] <Tailsfan> Anyone?
[00:56] <tim1> Soleone: I do but I don't like its syntax.
[00:56] <windio00> sveakex, yeah im going on 3 week trip and wanted to get it installed before i go
[00:56] <Soleone> timl: WHAT THE F***?
[00:56] <Soleone> timl: best syntax i know
[00:56] <_Silhouette_> hello I have a problem...I'm installing ubuntu with the alternate install disk and it says it's formatting the partition on my external harddrive, but it has been at 33% for like 10 minutes....what is wrong?
[00:56] <tim1> Soleone: PHP looks much cleaner.
[00:56] <Soleone> timl: whaaat?
[00:56] <sveakex> Soleone: lol you exploded :P
[00:56] <tim1> Soleone: Ruby is ugly. :D
[00:56] <Soleone> timl: sorry to say this, but you're crazy :)
[00:56] <Tailsfan> It's a "External" Drive, as in it'll be slower and how big is it?
[00:57] <sveakex> i don't code at all, *gets a flame shield*
[00:57] <Daviey> _Silhouette_: try giving it a bit longer if you are resizing a partition to make space
[00:57] <GravityParade> Im not crazy
[00:57] <GravityParade> Neither am I
[00:57] <bastid_raZor> tim1; true,, reason i gave killall was apache has several things running at once.. so ps aux | grep apache2 would have come back with about 4 apache2's to kill.. killall would have taken them out.. -9 isn't necessary but can't hurt
[00:57] <sveakex> windio00: ah, is it a laptop?
[00:57] <Daviey> bastid_raZor: sudo /etc/init.d/apache2 stop <-- safer
[00:58] <tim1> Soleone: But Python looks uglier. In my eyes it's quite restrictive to use a tab as a control structure (something like { ... } in PHP).
[00:58] <sveakex> windio00: how big is the hdd?
[00:58] <windio00> sveakex, nah its for a family that needs something that works while im gone
[00:58] <harrisony> Hi does anyone know a way of making my usb flash drive isofs (I know it sounds crazy but I need to do it to get the alternate installer working on my computer)
[00:58] <Tailsfan> I'm a real dummy when compling the kernel, it's for a *cough* hack *cough*
[00:58] <bastid_raZor> Daviey; true. an even better idea tim1..
[00:58] <windio00> sveakex, i dont think more than 10 or 20 gb
[00:58] <tim1> bastid_raZor: Ok.
[00:59] <Soleone> timl: you sure must take a second look at ruby, believe me. it's worth it. no sane man can whole-heartedly say that php is more expressive (and cleaner) than ruby :)
[00:59] <tim1> bastid_raZor: Which idea?
[00:59] <sveakex> windio00: you can have partition mounted at / which is 6-10gb large, and the rest on /home. and then install 7.10 and then 8.04 when you come back, and not touching the /home partition
[01:00] <sveakex> Soleone: is ruby for webbdevelopment?
[01:00] <DarkJustice> IndyGunFreak: not sure if this might help anyone else but I found this site for 5.1 channel in linux..... http://www.cse.ohio-state.edu/~bondhugu/alsamch.shtml
[01:00] <ryanzec> Solene: oh, please tell me why ruby is so much better than php, i would love to hear it :)
[01:00] <Soleone> sveakex: not only for web dev, but very good for it yes
[01:00] <tim1> Soleone: I have already looked at ruby. There are some cool classes which don't exist in PHP but I think PHP is superior since nearly everything is written in purely C/C++ so it's much faster.
[01:00] <danbhfive> sveakex: ruby is a language comparable to python
[01:00] <Intangir> anyone here running wine? run winecfg and tell me if you see 'jack' as an available audio option
[01:00] <sveakex> danbhfive: aha, ok, i see
[01:00] <Daviey> Soleone: & tim1, fancy taking it to pm or #ubuntu-offtopic ?
[01:01] <Soleone> ryanzec: everything is an object. which allows cool syntax (domain specific language)
[01:01] <tim1> sveakex: There's Ruby on Rails which can be used for webdevelopment.
[01:01] <sveakex> tim1: ok
[01:01] <Soleone> timl: most classes in ruby at the backend are also in C
[01:01] <Soleone> Daviey: sorry
[01:01] <tim1> Daviey: Sorry, I can't pm since I haven't registered an account here.
[01:01] <tim1> Soleone: Do you have Jabber?
[01:02] <Soleone> no
[01:02] <yippy> what are the current offical ubutnu 7.10 versions of compiz and emerald ?
[01:02] <herby_> @timl: what cool classes did you find?
[01:02] <tim1> Soleone: And ICQ?
[01:02] <Soleone> timl: come to #ruby :)
[01:02] <sveakex> tim1 Soleone: give me your msn if you want to fancy a talk some other time :)
[01:02] <windio00> sveakex, is 8.04 raelly that unstable right now 2 weeks before?
[01:02] <Soleone> timl: come to the light side
[01:02] <Pici> !hardy
[01:02] <ubotu> Hardy Heron is the code name for the next release of Ubuntu (8.04-LTS), due April 24, 2008 - For more info, see: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardyHeron - CONSIDER IT TO BE BETA SOFTWARE - Discussion and support in #ubuntu+1, NOT #ubuntu
[01:02] <sveakex> windio00: you can also install that an reinstall
[01:02] <tim1> herby_: The log class.
[01:02] <Soleone> sveakex and timl: ICQ: 326-800-916
[01:02] <Daviey> windio00: it's classed as unstable until release.. feel free to try it on a testing machine - just don't rely upon it
[01:03] <tim1> Soleone: Thanks.
[01:03] <sveakex> Soleone: aiight, i need make an icq account first :P
[01:03] <sveakex> tim1: hbu?
[01:03] <Soleone> sveakex: msn and icq are compatible
[01:03] <windio00> sveakex, if i install 8.04 beta there is at least a chance that it would switch over ok to 8.04 stable right?
[01:03] <sveakex> Soleone: they are?
[01:03] <Daviey> windio00: yes
[01:03] <tim1> sveakex: hbu?
[01:03] <Soleone> yea found that out lately
[01:03] <shingalated> does anyone know if you can run multiple sites with separate domain names on the same apache server?
[01:03] <kakoonia> Hi, i installed a philips 22" lcd, 1) refresh rate is low 60hz, 2) its attached to a laptop, and im trying to figure out, how to work with these two screens together, like how to config the view, i want it each screen to be another desktop.. howdy how?
[01:03] <sveakex> tim1: how about you
[01:03] <tim1> Soleone: Really? I thought AIM and ICQ were compatible.
[01:04] <Daviey> shingalated: yes, you can easily - use virtual hosts
[01:04] <tim1> sveakex: What does hbu stand for.
[01:04] <tim1> ah
[01:04] <sveakex> tim1: just told you :)
[01:04] <Soleone> timl: ? they are comtabible..
[01:04] <ryanzec> Solene: if everything is a object that that is pretty weak.  Sure php array and string function are a pain in the ass but that alone is not really worth switching.  sveakex i would take a look at ruby and php and deside what you like best if you are look for web development.  they both can do pretty much the same and just in a different way.
[01:04] <windio00> what would ubuntu offer over debian?
[01:04] <tim1> Soleone: ok
[01:04] <Daviey> Soleone & tim1, you are keeping this off topic chat going somewhat...

[01:06] <FelipeMorales> boa noite amigos!
[01:06] <windio00> can i ask questions about xubuntu here too or only ubuntu?
[01:06] <ryanzec> soleone: well personally the syntax on ruby if very akword for me as i come from a heavy C++ background, it is just not worth it to learn ruby.
[01:06] <Soleone> ryanzec: i also invite you to #ruby to elaborate on ruby
[01:06] <Daviey> windio00: /j #xubuntu
[01:08] <herby_> i got a strange little problem: with the live cd the brightnes control of the display was working. now with the installed version of 7.10 it does not work.
[01:08] <yippy> when i open a new account, my X windows theme is kinda redish, and doesn't look like the ubuntu one, and i can't change it to the ubuntu one, any idea ?
[01:08] <Tasteless> Is there a way to limit pure-ftp bandwidth to a per month limit?
[01:09] <mastro> do you confirm that fglrx driver version shipped with gutsy can't work with compiz?
[01:09] <sveakex> tim1: icq? msn? if you want to talk?
[01:09] <Daviey> mastro: it can.. just need to use XGL :(
[01:10] <sveakex> Soleone: btw i added you i think

[01:11] <yippy> when i open a new account, my X windows theme is kinda redish, and doesn't look like the ubuntu one, and i can't change it to the ubuntu one, any idea ?
[01:11] <mastro> GravityParade, it's not for me..
[01:11] <mastro> GravityParade, actually i've Debian with an nvidia and i DON'T use Compiz at all
[01:11] <Daviey> mastro: sure.. but obv. the normal recommendations of using unpackaged software applies
[01:12] <sveakex> mastro: compiz is terrible :P

[01:12] <cizzi> Last year I setup a supercomputer with linux on it for the public, if you need a shell for educational purposes you can get one, www.learningshells.com
[01:13] <_Andrew> cizzi, Are you an adbot?
[01:14] <scottyL> Question: I just installed Gutsy Server, and the installation guide I'm following suggests I establish a static IP
[01:14] <eduardo> linux has the best performance, but its also the most difficult to use
[01:14] <Nwallins> Hi, apt and synaptic are telling me that i have 50 packages held back.  how can i find out what the issue is and resolve it?
[01:14] <scottyL> Is that a step I really must do, or what?
[01:14] <sdasd> :q
[01:14] <jking_> scottyL not really
[01:14] <jking_> it will use dhcp
[01:14] <_Andrew> scottyL, What's the guide.. not really
[01:14] <lufis> is there any way via a firefox extension or wget to download files from a web directory recursively?
[01:14] <FastZ> scottyL: doesnt make sense to have a server and make it use a dynamic IP address though
[01:14] <TwinX> Like my granmother says: Linux is User friendly , not idiot friendly :)

[01:15] <lufis> Nwallins: how? :)
[01:15] <usser> hou5ton, upgrade here went without a hitch

[01:18] <_Silhouette_> Daviey: it's a blank external hard drive. But okay, I will leave it run. Thanks.
[01:18] <Gnine> exactly

[01:18] <jking_> sorry
[01:18] <Daviey> Nwallins: hardy discussion in #ubuntu+1,but try sudo apt-get dist-upgrade
[01:18] <phoenixgnome> How would I check that?
[01:19] <jking_> do you know the package you think you are missing
[01:19] <Daviey> _Silhouette_: if it's blank - just try again - nothing to lose
[01:19] <Nwallins> Daviey: ah, that looks like it will work.  thought i tried it earlier
[01:19] <_Silhouette_> Daviey: it won't corrupt anything if I just restart?

[01:19] <Daviey> _Silhouette_: not if the external disk is blank - there is nothing to corrupt. :)
[01:19] <jking_> did you use a forward slash
[01:19] <_Silhouette_> okay. thanks.
[01:20] <FastZ> I wanna be like Gnine and just post ubotu tips... :P
[01:20] <Gnine> you can
[01:21] <phoenixgnome> How would I check to see if I am running totem in fire fox?
[01:21] <_Andrew> More like abusing the bot
[01:21] <jking_> phoenix: in the address bar type about:plugins
[01:21] <Gnine> !botsnack

[01:22] <_Andrew> for being lazy and not answering questions
[01:22] <Daviey> Gnine: Any reason you keep asking ubotu for factoids?

[01:30] <herby_> does anyone know, how to enable manual brightness control in gnome?

[01:30] <Intertricity> anyone know a good console based mp3/music player in the repository? :D
[01:31] <Dr_willis> Intertricity,  i used mpg123 ages ago

[01:31] <Intertricity> ohh?
[01:31] <Intertricity> I'll be running everything on a headless display
[01:31] <Intertricity> er
[01:31] <Intertricity> headless setup
[01:31] <_Andrew> I think VLC has cmd too?
[01:31] <jking_> mplayer also will work from the cli
[01:31] <Gnine> !vlc
[01:31] <ubotu> Audio (Ogg, MP3...) players: Audacious, Banshee, Beep Media Player, Listen, Quod Libet, Rhythmbox, Exaile, XMMS (GTK/Gnome based) and Amarok, JuK (Qt/KDE based).  Video players: Totem, Xine, MPlayer, VLC, Kaffeine - See also !codecs
[01:32] <_Andrew> Wow, that didn't really help Gnine
[01:32] <jking_> don't worry gnine we all want to feel helpful
[01:32] <Gnine> _Andrew: if you have a problem with me, your chat software has a useful ignore feature you can use
[01:33] <jking_> lol
[01:33] <matthew_> anyone know where I can get mysql.so? I need it so php can work with mySQL
[01:33] <_Andrew> I don't have a problem, just wished you'd be more helpful
[01:33] <xtknight> matthew_, http://packages.ubuntu.com/search?searchon=contents&keywords=mysql.so&mode=exactfilename&suite=gutsy&arch=any
[01:33] <help0r> hi ppl
[01:33] <_Andrew> hi
[01:33] <xtknight> php5-mysql it looks like
[01:33] <help0r> i have very good problem.
[01:33] <help0r> :)
[01:33] <Gnine> and i'd wish you didnt mind about me
[01:33] <Daviey> matthew_: sudo apt-get install php5-mysql
[01:34] <subcool> hey-
[01:34] <help0r> i not have rapidshare account. :)
[01:34] <danbhfive> !lamp | matthew_
[01:34] <ubotu> matthew_: LAMP is an acronym for Linux-Apache-MySQL-PHP. However, the term is often used for setups using alternative but different software, such as Perl or Python instead of PHP, and Postgres instead of MySQL. For help with setting up LAMP on Ubuntu, see  https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ApacheMySQLPHP - See also the Server CD installation process (different in Edgy+)
[01:34] <_Andrew> Don't cry Gnine
[01:34] <subcool> how do you password protect a archive?
[01:34] <subcool> Every time i create a .rar file, and try to add PW to it, it doesnt work.
[01:34] <_Andrew> help0r, What's the problem?
[01:34] <jking_> man gzip
[01:34] <help0r> i not have rapidshare account. :))
[01:34] <Dr_willis> subcool,  the rar commands for linux have minimal features.
[01:34] <_Andrew> help0r, .... then.. make one?
[01:35] <subcool> command line work- gui doesnt
[01:35] <subcool> command line is a bit.. off- but works
[01:35] <akatsuki> hi can someone recommend me a good movie player cause the movie player that come from default in ubuntu is not able to open one video
[01:35] <akatsuki> i want the best movie player and flexible with all kind of codecs
[01:35] <giskardX> vlc
[01:35] <Daviey> akatsuki: try vlc
[01:35] <akatsuki> ok thx
[01:35] <Dr_willis> I tend to use gmplayer for most of my video playback needs
[01:36] <_Andrew> akatsuki, vlc is pretty good
[01:36] <Dr_willis> vlc is also nice.
[01:36] <jking_> vlc is ok but sometimes it has issues with different mkv containers mplayer seems to handle high def videos better
[01:36] <Dr_willis> there are some very new video codecs out. that are not very well supported yet under ubuntu
[01:36] <Dr_willis> Issue i have with  vlc and mplayer both is i cant get them to default to enabling the subtitles on my mkv videos. :)
[01:36] <matthew_> thanks Daviey!
[01:37] <herby_> at least vlc can handle *some of them :)
[01:37] <Dr_willis> so every anime i start up - i gotta use themenus to set the subtitles on.
[01:37] <jking_> oh i haven't tried subtitles on an mkv
[01:37] <help0r> andrew give me rapid account
[01:37] <_Andrew> help0r, I don't quite understand why you're in here, but I think you're in the wrong place.
[01:37] <Starnestommy> !ot | help0r
[01:37] <herby_> mkv sometimes fails when the source is on a special path. maybe it's a bug, but i did not look at it jet in detail
[01:37] <ubotu> help0r: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome!
[01:37] <subcool> Ok- thanks guys- imma try gzip and see if it does anybetter
[01:38] <help0r> ok. sory
[01:38] <_Andrew> help0r, Try bugmenot or something
[01:38] <giskardX> is there yet a solution to the choppy flash video problem?
[01:38] <akatsuki> i will let you know guys
[01:38] <akatsuki> if it is able to open it
[01:39] <akatsuki> since it seems the video needs some weird codecs
[01:39] <akatsuki> i dont know..
[01:39] <akatsuki> i will wait and see
[01:39] <_Andrew> akafurious, What's the codec?
[01:40] <blbrown> general question; what is a good resolution for a 20inch lcd monitor.  I currently have it set to 1280x800.  I want to be a little finer resolution.  I am trying 1280x1024
[01:40] <C0p3rn1c> kde vs gnome?
[01:40] <elmer> blbrown, widescreen or regular?
[01:40] <subcool> sob- i cant get subfolders
[01:40] <subcool> this is getting annoying
[01:40] <jking_> much higher
[01:40] <blbrown> elmer: I think it is wide
[01:40] <FreakyFred> Hey everyone, I am having several problems installing 7.10. i am booting from a live CD, and the most immediate problem is that when I reach the menu with the install options, my USB Keyboard doesnt work. I have tried with 2 and neither works
[01:40] <blbrown> elmer: it is wide
[01:40] <jking_> is it 4:3 or 16:10
[01:40] <_Andrew> blbrown, Try setting it to your monitors max res
[01:40] <jking_> 1600:1050
[01:41] <danbhfive> blbrown: I think you want the max resolution on an LCD monitor.  Usually LCDs have an "optimal" resolution, which in my experience is the max
[01:41] <millertime_018> is there anyway to speed up torrent downloads?
[01:41] <elmer> blbrown, ok. I think 1680x1050 is the right resolution for a 20"
[01:41] <blbrown> what about optimal for the human
[01:41] <jking_> i hear an echo
[01:41] <subcool> i hear an echo
[01:41] <_Andrew> blbrown, You can always make the menu bigger
[01:41] <elmer> i hear an echo
[01:41] <akatsuki> Wow I install VLC and try to open the video and this appears: "This AVI file is broken. Seeking will not work correctly. Do you want to try and repair it?"
[01:41] <Pici> Stop.
[01:41] <blbrown> I have an acer AL2016W
[01:41] <jking_> lol
[01:42] <Dr_willis> akatsuki,  i see that often also. Some videos are weird. :)
[01:42] <jking_> choose no for vlc
[01:42] <jking_> on the broken avi file
[01:42] <jking_> are you streaming the avi?
[01:42] <akatsuki> i did but nothing appears
[01:42] <_Andrew> akatsuki, Happens to me when I haven't finished downloading a video
[01:42] <akatsuki> no
[01:42] <elmer> blbrown, "This Acer 20" Silver Widescreen LCD comes with 1600 x 1200 resolution" - Amazon
[01:42] <jking_> yeah or when i stream an avi
[01:43] <akatsuki> it is complete since i was able to see it in windows
[01:43] <akatsuki> is the same
[01:43] <akatsuki> archive
[01:43] <jking_> odd
[01:43] <_Andrew> akatsuki, Did you try mplayer?
[01:43] <danbhfive> akatsuki: whats the website?

[01:47] <MrGozInYah> on my main account all the other players work fine
[01:47] <n00b_^^> hello !
[01:47] <jking_> andrew i was just going to ask that
[01:47] <_Andrew> hi
[01:47] <FastZ_> i just got disconnected from the internet while i was connect to #ubuntu, now it still says that my other username is still in use.  Is there an op in here that can kick my other username out of the channel so I can come back in as that username?
[01:47] <akatsuki> with a webcam long time ago
[01:47] <Pelo> FastZ_, just be patient , it will age off in a few minutes
[01:47] <akatsuki> like 3 years ago lol
[01:47] <jking_> then what application
[01:47] <_Andrew> akatsuki, I mean what web cam
[01:47] <MrGozInYah> for some reason the codecs are not installed properly or something for this account, but it says they are installed
[01:47] <FastZ_> Pelo: thanks
[01:47] <jking_> did you use to make the vid
[01:47] <n00b_^^> Hello i wanted to solve a graphic card problem perhaps :P can any one help me !!!
[01:48] <Pelo> akatsuki, it's probably a propriatary format,  google for a converter
[01:48] <Dr_Link> When I tried to make Ubuntu LiveUSB work for me, even after installing LILO onto it to fix the MBR, I get the error "Boot Error" when I try to start it. Any reason why?
[01:48] <MrGozInYah> noob i might be able too
[01:48] <akatsuki> with a labtec webcam
[01:48] <jking_> the software used by that webcam is probably affecting your ability to play it
[01:49] <MrGozInYah> dr link ... see if acronis makes recovery professional for linux
[01:49] <MrGozInYah> its awesome for windows
[01:49] <n00b_^^> ok
[01:50] <fbc> Does the 64 bit version still have problems with flash???
[01:51] <subcool> ok
[01:51] <akatsuki> Here is the info of my video: Type: AVI video  Size: 648.5 MB  MIME type: video/x-msvideo
[01:51] <subcool> i got Archive manager to pw protect the files.. how about the rar itself?
[01:51] <_Andrew> I thought they fixed the problems with 64bit flash but I'm not 100% sure
[01:51] <jking_> this  MIME type: video/x-msvideo
[01:51] <jking_> is the issue
[01:51] <_Andrew> I think you still have to run it as 32 bit though
[01:51] <mads-> amarok sucks
[01:51] <mads-> uber slow
[01:51] <n00b_^^> I have intel 945 GNT Mbd hence Gdriver is Intel 950 ( which i have set correctly in screens n resolution window) now problem is i can't set widescreen resolution modes i have Lcd screen with spec 1440x900 @60 hz 32 bit resolution ..... I m using the right Open source driver :(
[01:52] <mads-> is there a good replacement for xmms out yet?
[01:52] <n00b_^^> though
[01:52] <akatsuki> mads: amarok does not suck
[01:52] <mads-> ok, it doesnt suck
[01:52] <mads-> it's just slow.
[01:52] <Pelo> oh and new flash is out ,  uses a little less cpu then the previous one
[01:52] <ectospasm> mads-:  audacious is supposed to be a drop-in replacement for xmms
[01:52] <linkinxp> ups my system hang up and now i dont have borders in my windows
[01:52] <linkinxp> ?
[01:52] <_Andrew> jking_, Is that a wmv?
[01:52] <jking_> not that i can find google says alot of people cannot play that codec type
[01:52] <Maarek_> how do I check what my localhost name is for mysql?
[01:53] <_Andrew> Maarek_, localhost name?
[01:53] <_Andrew> Maarek_, You mean the address of MySQL?
[01:53] <FastZ_> isnt localhost always just <IP_ADDRESS> or "localhost"?
[01:53] <Maarek_> _Andrew: that would be correct, the address
[01:53] <n00b_^^> its the same when u intall ubuntu u set it as Comp name
[01:53] <akatsuki> thanks JKING for that info
[01:53] <_Andrew> Maarek_, localhost:8080 i think
[01:54] <_Andrew> 8080 being the port..
[01:54] <Starnestommy> FastZ_: it's also ::1 if you have IPv6
[01:54] <akatsuki> i will 'research' more about it
[01:54] <akatsuki> since i really want to open that video
[01:54] <Maarek_> hmm, for some reason my program isn't connecting to the database
[01:54] <FastZ_> interesting, thanks Starnestommy
[01:54] <n00b_^^> no 8080 is not a valid mysql port :(
[01:54] <slestak> im having a real problem gettin an app that depends on python-setuptools installed.
[01:54] <jking_> akatsuki: sorry i could not be more help
[01:54] <_Andrew> maybe I should check that..
[01:55] <slestak> apt says it cannot configure python-setuptools, but for what I can tell, it should've been installed aready.  its on all my other gutsy machines.
[01:55] <Maarek_> maybe it's my programming, I'll dig deeper
[01:55] <Maarek_> thanks guys
[01:55] <_Andrew> Maarek_, What are you trying to do?
[01:55] <slestak> the specific msg i get is short, its pycentral pkginstall: already exists: /usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/setuptools.pth
[01:56] <_Andrew> Maarek_, If you're connecting to a remote ubuntu machine you need to edit your config. Otherwise it should work if turned on
[01:56] <n00b_^^> i need help on Gdrivers :S http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=752650 is the post please tell me something atleast :( or is it a bug in ubuntu which cant be solved :((
[01:57] <giskardX> what is the best tool for data recovery in linux/
[01:57] <giskardX>  -/  +?
[01:57] <giskardX> data recovery as in failed hard disks
[01:57] <jking_> data recovery depends on the file system used
[01:58]  * giskardX has tried testdisk
[01:58] <giskardX> it's an utterly gone hard disk
[01:58] <jking_> if the hard disk is physically failed that might pose a problem
[01:58] <giskardX> testdisk doesn't even recognize the partition type
[01:58] <r00723r0> giskardX, wow, what did you do?
[01:59] <giskardX> dunno, it's a crappy disk
[01:59] <jking_> try gparted or g4l and see if you can do a bit for bit copy to another disk
[01:59] <giskardX> i already RMA'ed it once before
[01:59] <jking_> of the same size or larger
[01:59] <jking_> what brand disk
[01:59] <giskardX> western digital
[01:59] <jking_> external?
[01:59] <giskardX> nope, sata internal
[02:00] <akatsuki> hey guys one other question.. i just install fluxbox and it looks awsome i mean very simple but i cant open anything.. how does it works? any good guide?
[02:00] <akatsuki> or any fluxbox user hre?
[02:00] <jking_> fluxbox everything is off the right click context menus
[02:00] <Sam827> Can someone walk me through getting my MacBook setup for Ubuntu? I have it installed and am on it right now but, as you may know, not everything works yet. When I tried to follow the guide on the Ubuntu website, I screwed X11 and had to fix it from the command line. Thanks!
[02:01] <akatsuki> yes i try many times right click on panel
[02:01] <akatsuki> but nothing appears
[02:01] <akatsuki> maybe i need to download more plugins or something
[02:01] <jking_> right click on the desktop itself
[02:01] <_Andrew> Sam827, What is the first problem you are having?
[02:01] <compwiz18> akatsuki: did you right click the desktop?
[02:01] <akatsuki> yes
[02:01] <akatsuki> i did
[02:01] <Pelo> Sam827, what issue are you dealing with atm ?
[02:01] <akatsuki> nothing appears
[02:01] <jking_> ok
[02:02] <Sam827> _Andrew: my mic doesn't work
[02:02] <jking_> i have not used fluxbox in a really long time
[02:02] <jking_> lol
[02:02] <_Andrew> Sam827, What version is this by the way? Hardy or Gutsy?
[02:02] <Sam827> Gutsy
[02:02] <jking_> a great live cd for flux is navyn os....navynos.linux.pl
[02:03] <_Andrew> Sam827, ok, did you look in the audio control panel?
[02:03] <Sam827> where is that?
[02:03] <mark[oz]> anyone know of a good podcast application?
[02:03] <_Andrew> Sam827, System->Preferences->Sound
[02:03] <mark[oz]> one that also does video would be prefered
[02:03] <blbrown> Modes  "1680x1050" for two monitors: I Just changed my resolution to this in xorg.conf.  And I have a dual monitors.  Strange, one monitor has my resolution but the other monitor has my other resolution which was set to 1280x800 ...wtf?
[02:03] <vkennedy85> Is it possible to delete the windows partition after I've set it up to dual boot?
[02:04] <Sam827> _Andrew: hold on. before we start with this, I need to get my trackpad working
[02:04] <skarface> vkennedy85: yes
[02:04] <mark[oz]> blbrown, if your using nvidia.. drop to shell and type sudo nvidia-settings
[02:04] <Pelo> vkennedy85, yes it is ,  just use gparted , in the admin menu ,   sudo apt-get install gparted if it is not there
[02:04] <adrian_2002ca> umm...my system tray area dissapeared..how do i get it back???
[02:04] <Sam827> _Andrew: I can't right click
[02:04] <jking_> vkennedy as long as you are using grub and not windows bootloader
[02:04] <vkennedy85> jking: grub?
[02:04] <Pelo> adrian_2002ca, right click on the pannel, add to pannel ,  notification area
[02:05] <jking_> grub = grand unifed bootloader
[02:05] <adrian_2002ca> oh, that's what its called, thanks Pelo
[02:05] <vkennedy85> jking: how do I know if I'm using that or not?
[02:05] <Pelo> adrian_2002ca, you are not in windows anymore
[02:05] <FastZ> Sam827: you should have said that the trackpad was your first problem when someone asked you that, instead of telling them it was  your mic
[02:05] <jking_> you should see it mention grub during the first few seconds of boot after your bios screens
[02:05] <_Andrew> Sam827, ok, Did you have a look at UbuntuForums.org ? I'm not so sure about trackpads, but I believe you need to edit your xorg.conf
[02:05] <adrian_2002ca> Pelo, i know, just didnt know tha name of it :P
[02:05] <Sam827> FastZ: I know, I'm sorry, it slipped my mind
[02:05] <Pelo> vkennedy85, unless you purposefully installed another one , that 's the one tha installs with ubuntu
[02:06] <skarface> jking_: considering vkennedy85 would've had to explicitly set that up, don't you think that's a useless caveat?
[02:06] <glenn69> My middle mouse button no longer copies last highlighted text?  What could have happened?
[02:06] <vkennedy85> Pelo: Ok, I just followed the ubuntu cd setup
[02:06] <jking_> not really if you install windows first and linux second you have grub
[02:06] <jking_> if you install linux first and windows second you have windows bootloader
[02:07] <jking_> that would have prob been a better question
[02:07] <Sam827> _Andrew: I tried that, but what happened was when I rebooted, X11 brokedown and I had to fix the xorg using command-line.
[02:07] <skarface> jking_: which you would have to explicitly set up to start linux anyway. you're making it more complicated than it is.
[02:07] <jking_> true sorry that is true
[02:07] <vkennedy85> it's far easier to set up partitions etc with Linux than WIndows right?
[02:07] <Pelo> jking_, I'm not sure that windows installs a bootloader that recognises linux , maybe other windows version but not linux , it probably skips the bootloader if it is linux
[02:08] <tim1> bye

[02:08] <ubotu> jking_: grub is the default Ubuntu boot manager. Lost grub after installing windows: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows - Making GRUB floppies & other GRUB howtos: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto
[02:08] <skarface> vkennedy85: well you have to buy software to have partition management anywhere near what gparted can do
[02:08] <jking_> true true i neglect to think
[02:08] <Pelo> vkennedy85, we thinks so
[02:08] <FastZ> Sam827: what did you use to "fix" your X server?  sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xorg.conf (i think) is what you should have used
[02:08] <kelledin> quick question: how do I disable the splash screen in the 7.10 liveCD?
[02:08] <IndyGunFreak> vkennedy85: yes, Install windows, then partition the drive and install Linux
[02:08] <herby_> windows has it's own 'bootloader' which does NOT recognize any other than windows
[02:08] <_Andrew> Sam827, Yeah, this is probably the hardest thing you're going to have to configure. I can't help you much on trackpads because mine worked out of the box so I've never had to deal with it.
[02:08] <Sam827> FastZ: thats what i did
[02:08] <blbrown> mark[oz]: wicked.  ok, configuration just got more confusing...whatever
[02:08] <Jaffarkelshac> nosplash kelledin
[02:08] <adrian_2002ca> ok, my notification area is not working...how do i get it back to working....i was using gdesklets and then i tried a toolbar and then it went shitty..so i uninstalled gdesklets
[02:08] <adrian_2002ca> still not working
[02:09] <mark[oz]> blbrown, more confusing? It should be much easier now?
[02:09] <vkennedy85> skarface: Ok. I have Ubuntu  installed, and now that it's set up I wanted to delete the windows and ntfs partitions I had set up and format them.  Cake right?
[02:09] <dhanraj> sam827: are you able to boot with live cd ?
[02:09] <node357> any idea how to get a Sound Blaster X-Fi Extreme Gamer working with Ubuntu?
[02:09] <tovella> is the ubuntu testing channel still called "ubuntu+1" ?
[02:09] <mneptok> adrian_2002ca: please find alternate adjectives for Ubutnu channels
[02:09] <jking_> <== feels warm under the collar
[02:09] <Pelo> adrian_2002ca, it will work when you start a prog that goes into the notification area , not all do
[02:09] <Jaffarkelshac> yes tovella
[02:09] <FastZ> adrian_2002ca: you just right click on the panel and add a notification area
[02:09] <skarface> vkennedy85: yeah you should be able to delete the partition and then merge it with a linux partition
[02:09] <Sam827> dhanraj: im on ubuntu right now. I fixed the issue
[02:09] <blbrown> mark[oz]: do you think the max resolutions or auto resolutions are the best fit?  That is outside of the range of my monitor?
[02:09] <tovella> Jaffarkelshac: thanx.
[02:09] <vkennedy85> skarface: Great thanks a lot for the help.

[02:09] <ubotu> Compiling software from source? Read the tips at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CompilingSoftware (But remember to search for pre-built !packages first)
[02:09] <adrian_2002ca> Pelo, i know this
[02:09] <Sam827> dhanraj: but i still cant right clik
[02:09] <mark[oz]> zomg, I'm out of here!
[02:09] <dhanraj> sam827: as you told but are you able to boot with live cd ?
[02:10] <jking_> good call skarface
[02:10] <adrian_2002ca> FastZ, ok lets try again...
[02:10] <warri> !packages
[02:10] <kelledin> Jaffarkelshac: at which prompt?  I escaped out of the graphical bootloader and tried nosplash in text mode, with no luck
[02:10] <ubotu> You can browse and search for Ubuntu packages using !Synaptic, !Adept, "apt-cache search <keywords or regex>", the "apt:/" URL in KDE, or online at http://packages.ubuntu.com - Ubuntu has about 20000 packages available, so please *search* for an official package before installing things in awkward ways!
[02:10] <Sam827> dhanraj: ya
[02:10] <Pelo> warri, this may help you  http://cutlersoftware.com/ubuntuinstall/
[02:10] <Sam827> dhanraj: y wouldnt i?
[02:10] <dhanraj> ok in live cd mode are you able to right click ?
[02:10] <FastZ> adrian_2002ca: that should work anyway
[02:10] <Sam827> dhanraj: i dont think so
[02:10] <kelledin> it still tried to bring up the orange progress bar et al
[02:11] <Sam827> dhanraj: no actually, i remember now
[02:11] <Jaffarkelshac> when you boot live cd, i think f6 or so brings up an option and just replace splash with nosplash
[02:11] <Pelo> kelledin, try the alternate install cd
[02:11] <brand0n> node357 see http://www.soundblaster.com/language.asp?sDestUrl=/support/downloads
[02:11] <brand0n> node357 there's a driver for linux
[02:11] <kelledin> ah, ok
[02:11] <adrian_2002ca> FastZ, nope, now im rocking two notification areas, no results...
[02:11] <jking_> doubly notified
[02:11] <jking_> nice
[02:12] <FastZ> adrian_2002ca: lol, ok you can get rid of the one you just put on there then... just right click it and select remove from panel

[02:12] <FastZ> adrian_2002ca: what was it that you were having problems with anyway?  I didnt catch the first part of your conversation
[02:12] <kelledin> fortunately that shouldn't take long
[02:12] <adrian_2002ca> FastZ, allright, im back at the start...
[02:13] <tinin> could someone explain me how could I use bitlbee?
[02:13] <FastZ> adrian_2002ca: ok so what is the problem you are having?
[02:13] <Sam827> Is anyone here running Ubuntu on a MAcBook??
[02:13] <zero88> Wow it's pretty funny to me that doing work that involves me to go to pretty big name businesses and dealing with there I.T. people. Everyone of them I asked if they know linux they're reply was they never have.Ever.
[02:13] <millertime_018> hey-is there way to speed up torrent downloads?
[02:13] <kelledin> BTW, a pretty specific question, but has anyone tried installing 7.10 on an MS-9803 (MSI "Fuzzy") board?
[02:13] <Pelo> tinin, wht is bitlbee ?
[02:13] <skarface> tinin: install it, then /server localhost in your irc client
[02:13] <millertime_018> hello?
[02:13] <millertime_018> help
[02:13] <kelledin> anyone here that is?
[02:13] <zero88> Their*
[02:13] <adrian_2002ca> FastZ, it seems it decided to grant me a reprieve...now the icons are showing as they should....
[02:13] <kelledin> i have a feeling there's a gotcha I'm missing with this board
[02:13] <FastZ> millertime_018: pick a torrent that has a lot of seeds???
[02:13] <IndyGunFreak> !ask | millertime_018
[02:13] <ubotu> millertime_018: Please don't ask to ask a question, ask the question (all on ONE line, so others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely answer. :-)
[02:13] <skarface> Pelo: an irc server that connects to IM services
[02:14] <tinin> Pelo to use msn inside irssi, I think
[02:14] <blackvd> I'm looking for some software to send files with via bluetooth to my samsung m300 cellphone. Any suggestions would be appreciated, Thanks!
[02:14] <FastZ> adrian_2002ca: glad i could help!  :P
[02:14] <Starnestommy> it's an IRC-to-IM interface
[02:14] <Pelo> blackvd, open synaptic and do a search for bluetooth
[02:14] <Sam827> Is anyone here running Ubuntu on a MacBook??
[02:15] <adrian_2002ca> FastZ, me 2 :D
[02:15] <Pelo> Sam827, what is the issue ?
[02:15] <FastZ> Sam827: we heard you the first time
[02:15] <zero88> Hello.
[02:15] <tinin> skarface, could you be a bit more specific?
[02:15] <Pelo> !jo | zero88
[02:15] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about jo - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[02:15] <Pelo> !hi | zero88
[02:15] <ubotu> zero88: Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu!
[02:15] <bazhang> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BluetoothSetup blackvd
[02:15] <IndyGunFreak> Sam827: is it an intel macbook?
[02:15] <skarface> tinin: well your question is vague. you install it (sudo apt-get install bitlbee) then you type connect to it (/server localhost)
[02:15] <dhanraj> sam827:: is your macbook for Core 2 Duo
[02:15] <skarface> -type...
[02:15] <Pelo> Sam827, consider doing some research in the forum www.ubuntuforums.org
[02:16] <fbc> it there anyway or script created to dump the ubuntu livecd to a partition on a usd drive you boot off of?
[02:16]  * zero88 waves to Pelo
[02:16] <Sam827> dhanraj, IndyGunFreak, Intel c2d
[02:16] <skarface> tinin: of course you do /server localhost inside irssi... then you'll be in a "channel" where you can get help from the bot.
[02:16] <bazhang> https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MacBookPro Sam827
[02:16] <IndyGunFreak> Sam827: then i think you should just be able to use the normal Ubuntu CD, just download and burn it as an image and burn it, and test your hardware
[02:16] <FastZ> fbc: Wasnt there mention somewhere some time ago that Ubuntu was developing a Ubuntu Mobile version?
[02:16] <Pelo> fbc, I tink you can just copy the content of the live cd to a usb drive and boot off that , provided you can boot from the usb drive
[02:17] <Sam827> bazhang: I've been trying, but nothing is working
[02:17] <bazhang> FastZ: yes; not fully developed yet though
[02:17] <IndyGunFreak> Sam827: well what happens when you boot hte CD?
[02:17] <_Andrew> fbc, I think there is a special usb ubuntu distro but you'd have to google it
[02:17] <tinin> thanx skarface, I'm triying to get some funtionality on an old notebook with debian
[02:17] <bazhang> Sam827: there is a website called ubuntu-tutorials.com that has more on that
[02:17] <dhanraj> sa,827: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MacBook#head-b0c1214684daee45c97d31d9113d7719accdf060
[02:17] <fbc> _Andrew, cool.. thank guys
[02:17] <hitmanWilly> DSL works well with thumb drives
[02:17] <Sam827> bazhang: thanks
[02:17] <FastZ> bazhang: that's what i thought, I thought maybe fbc could do some digging in regards to Ubuntu Mobile but since it's not finished yet, no sense
[02:17] <bazhang> np ;]
[02:18] <n00b_^^> hi can any one tell me how to boot with a flash drive :P
[02:18] <bazhang> www.pendrivelinux.com has all the details n00b_^^
[02:18] <_Andrew> n00b_^^, Where are you stuck?
[02:19] <gogeta> NOOB!!
[02:19] <gogeta> lol
[02:19] <Pelo> gogeta, be nice
[02:19] <gogeta> pelo for a flash boot dosent it just need a boot sector
[02:19] <gogeta> you dont even need grub
[02:20] <n00b_^^> clueless to start i want to boot ubuntu image from a flash drive
[02:20] <zero88> How would I host a IRC channel?
[02:20] <zero88> and keep it alive
[02:20] <Pelo> gogeta, a boot flag , a boot sector and soemting to boot I guess  like an os
[02:20] <bazhang> n00b_^^: be aware that it is very slow; also some computer bios do not allow that
[02:20] <skarface> tinin: you might have to install more stuff to make it work, but that's getting into debian-specific territory.
[02:20] <Pelo> !install | n00b_^^ look in here
[02:20] <ubotu> n00b_^^ look in here: Ubuntu can be installed in a lot of ways. Please see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation for documentation. Problems during install? See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/CommonProblemsInstall. Don't want to use a CD? Try http://tinyurl.com/3exghs - See also !automate
[02:20] <_Andrew> n00b_^^, Did you set your bios to boot usb? Does your motherboard let you boot usb?
[02:20] <Sam827> bazhang: It only says what the ubuntu forum says
[02:20] <zero88> lol n00b_^^ !!
[02:20] <n00b_^^> it allows on my comp have checked that
[02:21] <tinin> skarface I have installed irssi and bitlbee yet
[02:21] <n00b_^^> yes
[02:21] <bazhang> Sam827: what is that? which site?
[02:21] <gogeta> pelo i did a puppy pendrive one and it nedded a boot sector
[02:21] <n00b_^^> but it blanks out
[02:21] <gogeta> but thers also no boot loader
[02:21] <Pelo> gogeta, I wodlnT' realy know, I've never done it
[02:21] <skarface> tinin: you might need more software to load bitlbee... depends how debian does that.
[02:21] <n00b_^^> when i try to copy iso to flash drive
[02:21] <CoasterMaster> how do I get the source of a package?
[02:21] <Sam827> bazhang: you reffered me to ubuntu-tutorials.com
[02:21] <n00b_^^> i mean extracted iso lolz :p
[02:21] <gogeta> n00b ubuntu + flashdrive = bad
[02:21] <Pici> !usb | n00b_^^
[02:21] <ubotu> n00b_^^: For information about installing Ubuntu from USB flash drives, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/FromUSBStick - For a persistent live USB install, see: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LiveUsbPendrivePersistent

[02:22] <bazhang> Sam827: unless you give some specific details of what you have tried, what worked and what did not, and what errors you have gotten, then you might not get much help here
[02:22] <Sam827> dhanraj: already tried that
[02:23] <gogeta> pelo its due to the constent read wrights it burns a flash drive out
[02:23] <tinin> skarface, just the same way as ubuntu I guess ;)  Have you ever connected to Instant Messengers using irssi+bitlbee?
[02:23] <skarface> tinin: sure
[02:23] <Pelo> gogeta, I'm not the one asking
[02:23] <n00b_^^> thanks all BTw a bit lazy to write a CD :D
[02:23] <gogeta> lol
[02:23] <fbc> _Andrew, FastZ, the point of this is to be able to install ubuntu from a USB external drive instead of the CD (realy slow). So I basically want to boot the live CD off my hard drive. The tutorial I found are for flash drives and invlove erasing the whole drive.. I just want to partition it properly for the CD.
[02:23] <Sam827> bazhang, My trackpad can't right click, my muc doesn't work, my wifi doesnt work
[02:23] <skarface> but in past versions of ubuntu I had to install stuff that didn't get installed automatically
[02:23] <skarface> to get bitlbee to work
[02:23] <Sam827> bazhang: thats it i think
[02:23] <gogeta> n00b be ready to buy a new flashdrive in a week
[02:24] <linkinxp> why could be the reason for my Wireless icon , Bluetooth icon , ( only 2 icons i have right now loading in startup) takes from 10 seg to 20 to load after the pc boot up?
[02:24] <bazhang> that is a myth about the read/write
[02:24] <CoasterMaster> At Costco they have packs of 4 flash drives
[02:24] <_Andrew> fbc, Oh you want an external hard drive, I thought you meant flash
[02:24] <Pelo> gogeta, I remember someone mentionning there is a way around that, someting you need to tweak
[02:24] <Sam827> bazhang: i never get errors, it just doesnt work
[02:24] <n00b_^^> hehe why??
[02:24] <fbc> _Andrew, FastZ , I'm having a free ubuntu install fest in guadalajara this weekend on the university campus.
[02:24] <chris062689> Evenin'
[02:24] <gogeta> pelo well you can run it in ram of dump it in a temp file on the harddisk
[02:24] <Pelo> fbc, will the beer be free as well
[02:25] <n00b_^^> why what will happen to pen drive
[02:25] <gogeta> pelo to reduce the strees alot
[02:25] <_Andrew> So you want to connect the hard drive and install from that?
[02:25] <skarface> tinin: is there some reason you chose debian rather than ubuntu (and asked for help with debian here)? ;P
[02:25] <tinin> skarface I'm going to read a bit, I'm really lost
[02:25] <fbc> Pelo, I wish... something like 'brohemian raphsody'
[02:25] <bazhang> Sam827: all of this problems are eminently fixable; many folks run ubuntu well on their macbooks/macbook pros; the first order of business is always wifi though
[02:25] <n00b_^^> any other way round to it.... i mean not using Flash drive and cd to intall ubuntu
[02:25] <jking_> hooray loomix is hard
[02:25] <jking_> lol
[02:25] <Sam827> bazhang: OK
[02:25] <Pelo> fbc, you won'T see me there then
[02:26] <bazhang> n00b_^^: sure just mount the iso and run from that
[02:26] <jking_> xchat just borked w00t
[02:26] <gogeta> n00b for a install you should be fine
[02:26]  * Pelo will not be driving 2000 miles if there is no free beer at the end
[02:26] <gogeta> n00b using it as your hd is the drive killer
[02:26] <fbc> Pelo, but there are chicks.. ubuntu chicks
[02:26] <bazhang> gogeta: that is largely a myth
[02:26] <_Andrew> fbc, Sounds awesome.
[02:26] <Pelo> fbc, there are chicks over here
[02:26] <fbc> Pelo, I hear they are into the freeware concept.
[02:27] <tinin> skarface, yeah, I use debian at home, but with an old notebook with 32 of ram... only debian could work well in it, it's really nice and functional, now I just need a way to use msn
[02:27] <n00b_^^> how do i mount the Iso and boot from it ..... :s
[02:27] <_Andrew> fbc, So you want the install disk on your extern hard drive?
[02:27] <skarface> tinin: I don't see any reason ubuntu server wouldn't work just as well
[02:27] <fbc> _Andrew, you got it bud
[02:27] <tinin> soryy kubuntu at home skarface
[02:27] <bazhang> n00b_^^: you also run windows?
[02:27] <gogeta> bazhang largly hey
[02:27] <n00b_^^> yes
[02:27] <n00b_^^> i run Winxp pro
[02:28] <n00b_^^> too
[02:28] <bazhang> gogeta: I've run it on my eeepc for a long while and no degradation whatsoever
[02:28] <gogeta> then why do all pen distros but ubuntu do everything they can to reduce the read wrights
[02:28] <bazhang> n00b_^^: consider Wubi then
[02:28] <_Silhouette_> I'm trying to install ubuntu on my external hard drive (format partition) and it just hangs at 33%! what's wrong?
[02:28] <gogeta> bazhang not abought dedgraclation
[02:28] <skarface> tinin: there are public bitlbee servers you can try out
[02:28] <climatewarrior> 13 days till hardy!!!! :)

[02:29] <bazhang> gogeta: I mean external usb and yes this is offtopic thanks chris062689
[02:29] <IndyGunFreak> _Silhouette_: i know installing on an external drive seems good, but i've rarely saw it successful here.. 1 or 2 times, most the time you end up with boot errors
[02:29] <skarface> tinin: http://www.bitlbee.org/main.php/servers.html
[02:29] <IndyGunFreak> why nto just install it normally?

[02:30] <n00b_^^> wubi beta available
[02:30] <tinin> skarface really really lost... i don't even know what to type in that black and blue screen. I use linux for some years now, but always with graphical and shiny interfaces
[02:30] <chris062689> I could never get Wubi to work right.
[02:30] <skarface> heh
[02:30] <chris062689> It would always freeze when I booted Ubuntu.
[02:30] <bazhang> it works very well in the next release
[02:30] <gogeta> chris062689 you fail at windows
[02:30] <gogeta> >:o
[02:30] <chris062689> ...  Yes I do.
[02:30] <chris062689> :)
[02:30] <chris062689> That's why I use Linux!
[02:31] <bazhang> got to go all; back later ;]
[02:31] <chris062689> Besides, that was on another one of my PCs I just wanted to test it out on
[02:31] <neeto> What's a good DVD ripping program for linux?
[02:31] <chris062689> I don't actually run Windows on any of my PCs except my Laptop (ungh Vita.)
[02:31] <IndyGunFreak> neeto: i like acidrip
[02:31] <_Andrew> fbc, You know I don't see a CD being any slower. The most important thing you're going to need is an internet connection to download extra packages.
[02:31] <neeto> IndyGunFreak: sounds good, I'll try it out, thanks.
[02:31] <gogeta> fbc cd slower????
[02:32] <fbc> _Andrew, yeah.. that the second part...
[02:32] <IndyGunFreak> neeto: np, hope it works out
[02:32] <fbc> gogeta, then a usb2 connected external drive?
[02:32] <Sam827> bazhang: can you help me get wifi working?
[02:32] <_Andrew> fbc, Or you could download alot of packages and set yourself up as a repository, let people connect and download from you.
[02:32] <gogeta> fbc oh the usb 2 drive would give you more speed
[02:32] <_Silhouette_> IndyGunFreak: my internal HD died. Also, it recognizes the drive OK, but the install is hanging on 33%
[02:33] <gogeta> fbc but a hardrive is always the best
[02:33] <IndyGunFreak> _Silhouette_: well, yhouc learly didn't listen to a word i said, so.. good luck
[02:33] <fbc> gogeta, yeah,, so you wanna send me one?
[02:33] <gogeta> fbc lol
[02:33] <_Silhouette_> IndyGunFreak: what are you talking about?
[02:33] <IndyGunFreak> _Silhouette_: nothing.
[02:33] <gogeta> fbc? what a hardrive
[02:33] <fbc> gogeta, I got an external sata on a usb2 connector
[02:34] <gogeta> fbc oh that will work fine
[02:34] <fbc> gogeta, I just need instructions on how to go about setting it up...
[02:34] <gogeta> fbc well your best bet is installing grub on the externel
_Silhouette_: i know installing on an external drive seems good, but i've rarely saw it successful here.. 1 or 2 times, most the time you end up with boot errors
[02:34] <_Andrew> Maybe he's talking about that
[02:35] <gogeta> fbc grub likes to trip out if you remove a usb drive and grubs on the internel
[02:35] <n00b_^^> i have a toshiba satellite laptop and none of the usb work at all in it . I says cannot map dirve :(
[02:35] <lOki^> any1 know the swedish ubuntu channel?

[02:38] <lewench> Trying to connect to my wireless router with my laptop, using "WEP 64/128-bit Hex" and inputting the right key but the laptop won't connect. Authentication is "Open System" this is for a WRT330N linksys router. Any help on this?
[02:38] <RequinB4> _Andrew - yeah, i can do it by hand, but that becomes a pain with bulk files
[02:38] <n00b_^^> bahzang u meant that i mount the iso in Windows and then run Wubi :)
[02:38] <charles|64> lewench: are you sure it wep and not WPA?
[02:38] <n00b_^^> from it

[02:38] <millertime_018> have you run fwcutter?
[02:38] <gogeta> supergrub
[02:38] <millertime_018> or any of those generic drivers?
[02:39] <millertime_018> but can anyone help me?
[02:39] <fbc> gogeta, supergrub? never heard of it... but I'll check it out...
[02:39] <gogeta> its a grub live cd
[02:39] <lewench> charles|64, What do you mean? Routers security mode says WEP|Association Mode:Open|Transmit Key:1|WEP Encryption: 64bit 10 hex digit
[02:39] <_Andrew> millertime_018, What do mean by not run
[02:39] <fbc> gogeta, someone should make installfest related guides.
[02:39] <millertime_018> I need some help with getting sauerbraten to work. i think that my chipset doesn't have a driver
[02:39] <gogeta> fbc you can use it to build a linuc loader on any drive
[02:40] <gogeta> fbc or restore a botch mbr
[02:40] <gogeta> botched
[02:40] <n00b_^^> gogeta supergrub is similer to wubi??
[02:40] <d0lphin_n0el> someone knows why ... my ubuntu apache server can`t be access from users from outside?! :x and onlyfrom localhost ?! :x in ports.conf i haveonly thedoor select :x the public_html it iswork fine :x

[02:41] <eduardo> Ketzerei: when are you getting this error
[02:41] <millertime_018> I have a chipset and I dont know if the drivers for it are installed with ubuntu
[02:41] <_Andrew> millertime_018, How did you install the game?
[02:41] <n00b_^^> gogeta u mean wubi is linux on top of Win kernel sad
[02:41] <dhanraj> leaving ....
[02:41] <n00b_^^> good for nothing
[02:41] <millertime_018> through the add/remove box with all the stuff in it
[02:41] <Ketzerei> About 20% through the installler process. Earlier today it got completely through, but GRUB didnt install correctly and hasnt been able to finish since.
[02:41] <gogeta> n00b not on the kernel it uses the windows fs thow
[02:41] <millertime_018> i was just looking under games and stuff thought it sounded good.
[02:42] <gogeta> n00b and the windows boot loader
[02:42] <lewench> Trying to connect to my wireless router with my laptop, using "WEP 64/128-bit Hex" and inputting the right key but the laptop won't connect. Authentication is "Open System" this is for a WRT330N linksys router. Any help on this?
[02:42] <eduardo> Ketzerei: are u trying to install it on your hd or in an external drive?
[02:42] <_Andrew> millertime_018, Try this version, I think it's newer.. http://getdeb.net/app/Sauerbraten
[02:42] <Ketzerei> HD
[02:42] <n00b_^^> gogeta what does fs means
[02:42] <gogeta> n00b it makes it so you dont need to partation or deal with grub
[02:43] <gogeta> n00b file system
[02:43] <n00b_^^> and it installs on ???
[02:43] <eduardo> Ketzerei: you're trying to install ubuntu 7.10 right?
[02:43] <n00b_^^> gogeta on Win Filesystem
[02:43] <Ketzerei> No, 8.04. 7.10 does the same thing though, alternate too. Same with kubuntu.
[02:43] <gogeta> n00b it installs on your windows partation using a image file
[02:44] <gogeta> n00b think of it as running linux from a zip file
[02:44] <eduardo> Ketzerei: if its 8.04 go to #ubuntu+1

[02:46] <StevenX> guys, what is the equivalent setting of "fast draft" in Ubuntu?
[02:46] <n00b_^^> goget it formats something
[02:46] <_Andrew> lewench, How did you enter the key?
[02:46] <gogeta> n00b no only its own imsgae file
[02:47] <gogeta> chris062689 it does not efect windows
[02:47] <gogeta> oops
[02:47] <gogeta> lol
[02:47] <n00b_^^> gogeta perhps slow (or very slow
[02:47] <gogeta> n00b it does not format anything
[02:47] <lewench> _Andrew, I tried "2e6122045d" and "2E6122045D"
[02:47] <gogeta> chris062689 no its only slightly slower
[02:47] <gogeta> darn it lol
[02:47] <lewench> _Andrew, thats the 64bit hex key for 0mgh12u2
[02:47] <_Andrew> no I mean eth1 Properties -> WEP key (ascii)
[02:48] <blbrown> ok, back with the monitor issues: i posted to the forum, does anyone have a solution for this:  http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=4700168#post4700168
[02:48] <gogeta> n00b only the fs is slower the os itsself will run at the same speed
[02:48] <lewench> _Andrew, Ok now im lost.
[02:48] <n00b_^^> gogeta thanks alot
[02:48] <StevenX> is there an equivalent to "fast draft" on linux?
[02:48] <gogeta> n00b it will be fatser then a live cd or usb installer but not as fast as a nativ
[02:48] <_Andrew> lewench, System -> Administration -> Network -> your wireless -> Properties -> Password type
[02:49] <walski> does anyone know the final freaze data for the hardy beta?

[02:52] <scottyL> I'll try this one again: I'm setting the static IP of the Gutsy Server I've just installed
[02:52] <bertrand> #poland-pl
[02:52] <scottyL> I'm a complete idiot with regards to this
[02:52] <scottyL> How should I determine which IP to assign the server to?
[02:52] <seasurf> i love hardy. finally when i plug headphones in, the laptop speakers turn off =D
[02:52] <_Andrew> scott__, sudo ifconfig <IP_ADDRESS>  <-- or whatever
[02:52] <_Andrew> woops
[02:53] <_Andrew> scottyL, sudo ifconfig <IP_ADDRESS>  <-- or whatever
[02:53] <gogeta> walsk the best way to knoe is the beta splash screens and final one almsot always change

[02:53] <gogeta> walsk at least with all the betas i did
[02:53] <scottyL> _Andrew: I'm already in VI editing /etc/network/interfaces/ , as my installation guide is telling me to do

[02:54] <gogeta> scottyl boooo
[02:54] <pedroj> guasamara with yuç
[02:54] <scottyL> Should I just grab the IP address of the computer I'm on and change the last few numbers?
[02:54] <scottyL> gogeta: :P, I'm trying to get into Linux... you gotta start somewhere
[02:54] <lewench> _Andrew, thanks again restarted laptop and went on just fine.
[02:54] <_Andrew> scottyL, If you're on a home network usually the prefered is 192.168.0    or 192.168.1
[02:55] <walski> is it safe to dist-upgrade to the beta from gutsy with out breaking your system ??? just got owned about a month ago from dist-upgrading from gutsy
[02:55] <_Andrew> lewench, Awesome
[02:55] <wers> how do I change openbox keyboard shortcuts? :)
[02:55] <scottyL> _Andrew: Ok, fair enough, I'll start with the 192.168.1.###
[02:55] <scottyL> Thanks
[02:55] <_Andrew> walski, Why not wait until release in a few weeks
[02:55] <Carbonflux> if I am going to run Ubuntu inside VMWare is there anything I need to know ? is there a special kernel I should use ?
[02:56] <n00b_^^> carbonflux its easy and simple
[02:56] <Carbonflux> great :) thats what I thought
[02:56] <walski> andrew good point lol
[02:56] <_Andrew> walski, I know there are skype problems if you use that..
[02:56] <joshritger> I have used ubuntu with gnome for a while now and in the past I have experimented with xfce and was wondering if there was a setting to allow you to get a main menu in ubuntu with gnome when you right click on the desktop like in xfce
[02:56] <n00b_^^> carbon use Vmware server
[02:57] <_Andrew> Carbonflux, Nope, live cd is fine
[02:57] <Carbonflux> n00b_^^, that is what I plan on doing
[02:57] <Carbonflux> _Andrew, thanks :)
[02:57] <walski> thats from medibuntu archieve isnt it?
[02:57] <Carbonflux> n00b_^^, I am running Ubuntu on most of my machines now so I am used to installing it, this is going to be a VMWare install in Vista tho heh...thanks for the response :)
[02:58] <rdg> I am trying to install Ubuntu on a Dell T105 (ia64) server which won't work because of some sort of SATA issue. My only other computer is a Windows (32bit) computer. How can I get Ubuntu installed using the equipment I have?
[02:58] <n00b_^^> carbonflux what is ur "RAM" :p
[02:58] <_Andrew> walski, No, some kind of problem with pulseaduio
[02:58] <Carbonflux> n00b_^^, I have 4gig
[02:58] <_Andrew> walski, Maybe they fixed it, no idea
[02:58] <n00b_^^> carbonflux or it is going to be damn slow :(
[02:58] <walski> yeap yeap
[02:58] <Boohbah> rdg: figure out the SATA issue
[02:59] <Carbonflux> n00b_^^, which is about minimum for this experiment heh
[02:59] <n00b_^^> carbon and processor
[02:59] <rdg> it's a known  nv sata bug in linux
[02:59] <Boohbah> rdg: is your chipset supported?
[02:59] <Carbonflux> amd64 X2 2.8ghz
[02:59] <walski> yeah i hope pulse is better then esd
[02:59] <n00b_^^> carbon its going to be smooth then
[02:59] <n00b_^^> carbo GL
[02:59] <Carbonflux> its all newish hardware
[02:59] <Carbonflux> n00b_^^, just a geforce 8600
[02:59] <_Andrew> rdg, You could install Ubuntu inside windows with Wubi and dual boot?
[03:00] <Carbonflux> thats the weak part heh
[03:00] <TheFearsomeFufu> My taskbar in gnome seems to have gotten messed up. It's displaying taskbar entires for programs that I've closed...Is there some way I can "refresh" the taskbar or reload it or something?
[03:00] <Carbonflux> it should be ok for non-gaming stuff etc
[03:00] <joshritger> is there anyway in gnome to get the same main menu on right click as in xfce
[03:00] <n00b_^^> carbon it going to be fine
[03:00]  * Pelo wonders if metacity-compoziting can do someting other then add transparency and shadows
[03:00] <_Andrew> joshritger, When you mean main menu do you mean the applications menu?
[03:01] <Carbonflux> ah good, thanks again n00b_^^ :) need reassurance sometimes heh
[03:01] <_Andrew> joshritger, ...because there are three really..
[03:01] <joshritger> _Andrew: Yes, I want to get rid of my panels but still have my menus on right click of desktop
[03:01] <walski> anyhow _Andrew thanks for your help and that wiki url
[03:01] <walski> :D
[03:02] <_Andrew> joshritger, I haven't the slightest clue how to do that sorry.
[03:02] <joshritger> _Andrew: I swear I was able to do it in an older version of ubuntu, but maybe I am mixing it up with xubuntu
[03:04] <shanepardue> I'm on a clean grub install, how do I set up a grub entry to boot into an encrypted ubuntu partition?
[03:04] <wers> how do I change openbox keyboard shortcuts? :)
[03:04] <Flinx> Hi. I want to compile nvidia kernel module in Gutsy. In debian there is nvidia-kernel-legacy-source package which contains nvidia-kernel-legacy-source.tar.gz, but in Gutsy there is no such file. Where can i get this tarball with modules sources in Gutsy?
[03:05] <kindofabuzz> how can i get my trah back on the desktop? trash on desktop is checked in gconf-editor
[03:05] <shanepardue> Flinx: I recommend using Albert Milone's Envy software, google "envy nvidia"
[03:06] <Pelo> shanepardue, the grub entry for that partitons shoud pretty much be the same as usual I beleive but for an extra switch,  you would probably have better luck ask ing in #grub tho
[03:06] <Flinx> shanepardue: Ok, thanks. Can envy get sources for nvidia kernel module?
[03:06] <Flinx> shanepardue: I know envy can install drivers, but i need to compile it from sources
[03:07] <Pelo> kindofabuzz, rigth click on the desktop and sort the icons it might jsut be outside the desktop atm
[03:07] <shanepardue> Pelo: I copied and pasted my grub entry from the previous install and that didn't work. I may try the grub channel
[03:08] <Pelo> shanepardue, the hd0,0 of your new install might not be the same, same can the said for the uuid , you may need to edit those
[03:08] <kindofabuzz> Pelo, yeah it was, thanks
[03:08]  * Pelo loves noobs , they know even less then he does
[03:09] <neur0n> how do i install the nvidia manager?
[03:09] <Pelo> neur0n, look in synaptic I beleive it is called nvidia-settings
[03:10] <neur0n> Pelo: didn't find it -(
[03:11] <shanepardue> Pelo: I'm not sure how my entry could be affected by uuid or different device number..it's the same machine and my grub doesn't include uuid. I believe the problem has something to do with the referencing of /dev/mapper/sda8_crypt. Doesn't that have to be unlocked first somehow?
[03:11] <Pelo> neur0n, sudo apt-get install nvidia-settings
[03:11] <kadko> I'm sorry if I download the Ubuntu Hardy when it will be oficial released my "beta vercion" will update to the final vercion or i need to redownload the new vercion?
[03:12] <shanepardue> kadko: you can update from the beta without a new version download
[03:12] <Pelo> shanepardue, I woudn'T know about that,  but uuid will change if you repartition and boot order will affect the device number in grub,  but I was jsut offering suggestions
[03:12] <rks> hello
[03:12] <rks> i need to chnge the tcp-ip setting
[03:12] <n00b_^^> pelo how to do that :s

[03:13] <Pelo> n00b_^^, how do I do what ?
[03:13] <shanepardue> Pelo: Thanks, I really appreciate your help. my partitions haven't been moved around, but I'll look for a solution to the /dev/mapper issue
[03:13] <_Andrew> kadko, It will appear with new updates
[03:13] <kadko> okey tnx
[03:14] <n00b_^^> shanepardue  you can update from the beta without a new version download ; how to do this :s
[03:14] <Pelo> rks, what settings specificaly do you need to change ? I thnk tcp ip is a windows thing, but Iming be wrong
[03:14] <shanepardue> n00b_^^: It will update when you download new updates
[03:14] <goget1> pelo NOOOBBBBB!!!!!!
[03:14] <goget1> lol
[03:14] <rks> i want to change the MTU unit of tcp
[03:15] <Pelo> goget1, don't do that , it annoys the ops
[03:15] <goget1> rks you can do tha at the roughter level
[03:15] <goget1> Pelo tcp-ip a windows thing you had it coming
[03:15] <Megiddo> I tried Hardy Heron beta 1, but the network won't work for some reason. It reports that it successfully sends packets but reports that it never receives any packets. I'm running Gutsy just fine right now. Any ideas?
[03:15] <Pelo> goget1, the name of the protocol I meant
[03:15] <n00b_^^> shanepardue by using synaptic
[03:15] <rks> i am using internet through cell phone, so no outer
[03:16] <rks> and i want to change the default settings
[03:16] <goget1> pelo still called tcp/p in linux
[03:16] <_Andrew> Megiddo, Can you ping other computers on the network?
[03:16] <rks> so thet i can get more speed
[03:16] <goget1> pelo or any other os
[03:16] <Megiddo> _Andrew: no
[03:16] <_Andrew> Megiddo, Can you ping ubuntu from other computers?
[03:17] <Megiddo> _Andrew: Didn't try
[03:17] <rks> ok ok
[03:17] <Megiddo> I take it it's not a common problem then?
[03:17] <Megiddo> Seems so strange that it would work in Gutsy and not Hardy
[03:17] <_Andrew> Megiddo, Is it a wired connection?
[03:17] <rks> what is in the name of tcp/ip in linux
[03:17] <Megiddo> Correct, wired.
[03:17] <neur0n> Pelo: didn't find any packages
[03:17] <gogeta> rks tcp/ip
[03:17] <gogeta> ;p;
[03:18] <Pelo> Megiddo, hardy is redoing many things, stuff that works in gutsy might not work in hardy yet,   there aer still many issues that need to be worked out
[03:18] <gogeta> rks what you trying to do
[03:18] <_Andrew> Megiddo, Did you plug the network cable in after starting up ubuntu?
[03:18] <Pelo> neur0n, where are you looking ?
[03:18] <Megiddo> _Andrew: No
[03:18] <bernier> Hi, could someone give me suggestions about a good IDE for C++ for linux?
[03:18] <arvind_khadri> BernierAnjuta
[03:18] <LjL> !code
[03:18] <ubotu> Programming editors/suites: Terminal-based: vi/vim, emacs - KDE: Kate, KDevelop, Quanta+, Umbrello - GNOME: gvim, gedit, anjuta, eclipse, pida
[03:18] <arvind_khadri> bernier, anjuta
[03:18] <Daisuke_Ido> bernier, vi :D  but seriously, anjuta's good
[03:18] <Megiddo> _Andrew: Tried everything I could think of with my (somewhat) limited knowledge too, ifup eth0, /etc/init.d/networking restart, dhclient directly and such
[03:18] <bernier> ok thanks
[03:19] <neur0n> Pelo: sudo aptitude isntall nvidia-settings
[03:19] <_Andrew> Megiddo,  Yeah you're probably better checking #ubuntu+1 and launchpad.net , it might actually be a bug
