[04:00] <sensae> How do I turn down the sensitivity of changing my screen brightness?
[04:00] <GUN-RocketGib> OMG I got COMPIZ EFFECTS TO WORK!!!  Gotta love the ATI XOrg.org drivers \o/
[04:00] <efish> princeOfCode, use Azureus for better download
[04:00] <miguelrsilva> i'm installing ubuntu-8.04-desktop-amd64. douring the installation can i get the wireless network working?
[04:01] <alpha255> intel chipsets are nice too for compiz
[04:01] <matthew___> wols: how can I boot in single mode?
[04:01] <alpha255> worked right out of the box :)
[04:01] <wols> miguelrsilva: usually not. why'd you need to?
[04:01] <princeOfCode> efish, its to slow it only goes 20-40 kbps
[04:01] <Seven_Six_Two> matthew___, you want to get to single user mode?
[04:01] <wols> meshugga: read your bootloader menu
[04:01] <gooody> ajhtiredwolf: that's usualy the case when you link a file that on other drives. in my case my drives are not mounted automatically when i login to my system.
[04:01] <Jordan_U> Shaba1: Well, in *NIX there is no concept of permanent arrangement of icons, files are simply in certain directories, position is not saved anywhere
[04:01] <little_unix> [abchirk]: how to download all keyboards? My ubuntu is 8.04 server
[04:01] <little_unix> how to download all keyboards? My ubuntu is 8.04 server
[04:01] <matthew___> Seven_Six_Two, I need to do a mode that stops modules from loading
[04:02] <wols> little_unix: they are already "downloaded"
[04:02] <little_unix> my keyboard dont change
[04:02] <little_unix> ?
[04:02] <wols> little_unix: locate keymaps
[04:02] <matthew___> Seven_Six_Two, because I have one that auto loads that bricks my system
[04:02] <little_unix> yeah
[04:02] <little_unix> but dont work
[04:02] <miguelrsilva> my router stays on the hallway... it's dificult to install my machine there....
[04:02] <Seven_Six_Two> matthew___, you need to interrupt grub and add "single" to the options line
[04:02] <little_unix> please wait
[04:02] <ajhtiredwolf> gooody, to auto mount them open /etc/fstab
[04:02] <princeOfCode> anyone know sumtin better than azureus for torrents
[04:02] <wols> !doesn't work | little_unix
[04:02] <Shaba1> Jordan_U then how does xfre know where what I icon should be placed?
[04:02] <efish> princeOfCode, the slow torrent download are not because of the downloader
[04:02] <Shaba1> visually on the desktop that is
[04:02] <matthew___> Seven_Six_Two, just as the command for the kernel right?
[04:02] <Shaba1> I am not talking about where that actual file is
[04:03] <princeOfCode> efish: utorrent on windows downloads 150 -200 kbps
[04:03] <Seven_Six_Two> matthew___, yes. That will only load to level 1
[04:03] <Seven_Six_Two> matthew___, if you have a live cd, you could just boot that, mount your root partition and remove the offending file
[04:03] <wols> princeOfCode: if you're so happy with utorrent, then use it
[04:03] <Jordan_U> Shaba1: The desktop is usually the one exception, there is probably a .desktop file in ~/Desktop which keeps the position information
[04:03] <little_unix> nonono
[04:03] <matthew___> Seven_Six_Two, Grub won't load my liveCDs for some reason
[04:04] <little_unix> in qwerty there are 2 maps
[04:04] <little_unix> :(
[04:04] <princeOfCode> wols, only for windows and sucks in wine
[04:04] <wols> matthew___: the reason is grub can't boot from CD. you need to change your BIOS for that
[04:04] <wols> matthew___: make it boot from CD
[04:04] <matthew___> wols, I did
[04:04] <gooody> ajhtiredwolf: i have open the fstab. what's next?
[04:04] <matthew___> wols, it didn't work
[04:04] <wols> matthew___: then it can boot
[04:04] <Seven_Six_Two> matthew___, you can't boot a live cd at all?
[04:04] <wols> !doesn't work | matthew___
[04:04] <aspeer> anyone know why after a clean install on 1 of 3 hd ubuntu gives me a insert boot media error? i have tried reinstalling 4 or 5 times, no dual boot just clean ubuntu
[04:04] <matthew___> wols, grub just hangs for a long time
[04:04] <Jordan_U> princeOfCode: Have you tried rtorrent?
[04:04] <little_unix> what pack have keyboards?
[04:04] <ajhtiredwolf> gooody, lol alrihgt do this
[04:04] <Shaba1> probably??
[04:05] <wols> matthew___: then you did it wrong. theris NO grub when you use the LiveCD. totally utterle NONE
[04:05] <Seven_Six_Two> matthew___, grub on the cd hangs????
[04:05] <princeOfCode> Jordan_U, no, ill try it, im lookin for sumtin lite
[04:05] <little_unix> :(
[04:05] <wols> little_unix: find out with dpkg -S
[04:05] <ajhtiredwolf> gooody, sudo fdisk -l
[04:05] <ifytbairz> hi all
[04:05] <matthew___> Seven_Six_Two, somehow, when I have my liveCD in, a little flashing underscore just stays there for a while, then the grub window starts
[04:06] <gooody> ajhtiredwolf: sorry i'm new to linux
[04:06] <ajhtiredwolf> gooody, dont worry so am i
[04:06] <bogui> Hello everyone.
[04:06] <gooody> ajhtiredwolf: what does fdisk -l do?
[04:06] <ifytbairz> is ubuntu alble to work with wireless network cards?
[04:06] <Seven_Six_Two> matthew___, then your cd is bad, or there's something misconfigured in your bios
[04:06] <wols> ifytbairz: yes
[04:06] <Seven_Six_Two> ifytbairz, yes
[04:06] <bogui> Anyone know what type of interface I am to build in order to use airsnort and madwifi?
[04:07] <ifytbairz> really? how?
[04:07] <ajhtiredwolf> gooody, it will lists the different partitions you have right now
[04:07] <wols> bogui: atheros
[04:07] <matthew___> Seven_Six_Two, i've used sevral CDs, and I have changed the BIOS boot order as much as I can
[04:07] <ajhtiredwolf> gooody, find which partition it is you wnat to mount
[04:07] <nickrud> !wireless | ifytbairz (like this :)
[04:07] <wols> !madwifi | bogui
[04:07] <ifytbairz> Oh My God thank you
[04:07] <Shaba1> nickrud?
[04:07] <Shaba1> do you know
[04:08] <Shaba1> Is there a command that will work like arrange icons in windows
[04:08] <nickrud> Shaba1 ? > back at yah
[04:08] <Shaba1> It bascially arranges your icons on your desktop by modification time,type,size e.t.c
[04:08] <Seven_Six_Two> matthew___, so when you put in a live cd and reboot your system, it reads the cd, then moves on to the hd?
[04:08] <Shaba1> visually on the desktop that is
[04:08] <nickrud> Shaba1 nah, arrange by name is all I've ever see
[04:08] <Shaba1> hmmm
[04:08] <Shaba1> ok
[04:08] <Shaba1> damn
[04:08] <ZippyP> NICE!
[04:08] <Shaba1> that sucks
[04:08] <matthew___> Seven_Six_Two, it seems to, the father down the HD is in the boot order, the longer the little underscore stays there
[04:08] <edju>  Kaffeine is installed, and ran the install_css.sh script, so libdvdcss2 is installed, too.  However, Kaffeine will not play dvds - says "encrypted".  Evidently, it doesn't recognize libdvdcss.  vlc plays fine.  Solution?
[04:09] <Seven_Six_Two> Shaba1, the enter button isn't punctuation. Thanks.
[04:09] <princeOfCode> i need an opinion, which is better, nvidia or ati
[04:09] <little_unix> aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
[04:09] <Seven_Six_Two> matthew___, then there's something wrong with your cd/dvd drive
[04:09] <wols> princeOfCode: ##hardware
[04:10] <bbyever> how can i connect my mobile phone to my computer via bluetooth?
[04:10] <ZippyP> Thanks Radius__ for leaving a person hanging after telling them the wrong info....   Real Nice...
[04:10] <matthew___> Seven_Six_Two, its worked before, i mean, I _did_ install linux
[04:10] <Seven_Six_Two> princeOfCode, the nvidia drivers are better in linux, but that has nothing to do with the quality of the cards.
[04:10] <princeOfCode> Seven_Six_Two: im lookin at some midrange cards for a dual boot desktop
[04:10] <Seven_Six_Two> matthew___, doing it once doesn't mean it'll last forever. I once had a cat. Now I don't
[04:11] <matthew___> Seven_Six_Two, thats mean, I like cats :P
[04:11] <Seven_Six_Two> princeOfCode, look on the nvidia site under linux drivers to see what the closed source binary drivers support.
[04:12] <Seven_Six_Two> matthew___, I installed linux too, but both of my dvd drives (or maybe my second ide channel) are now dead.
[04:12] <nickrud> Seven_Six_Two linux is known for breaking hardware
[04:12] <alpha255> intel 3100 built in works pretty well for me
[04:12] <matthew___> Seven_Six_Two, I think i'll just go with the  single kernel option
[04:13] <Seven_Six_Two> nickrud, I don't blame linux. They lasted for about 4 years, and I've burned hundreds of disks with each.
[04:13] <matthew___> Seven_Six_Two, its just plain old "single" (no quotes)  right on the kernel right?
[04:13] <matthew___> *kernel command line
[04:13] <nickrud> Seven_Six_Two I'd love to troll some more, but I'd have to kick myself ;)
[04:13] <bazhang> heh
[04:13] <wols> Seven_Six_Two: apt-cache show nvidia-glx to see
[04:13] <Seven_Six_Two> matthew___, yeah. you just append it to the end
[04:14] <matthew___> Seven_Six_Two,  then its restart time for me!
[04:14] <matthew___> bye
[04:14] <alpha255> anyone gotten tomcat to work with the apt-get install version?
[04:14] <Seven_Six_Two> wols, is that to show the supported cards? I've never tried that
[04:14] <nickrud> bazhang like I said, it takes some of the fun out ;p
[04:15]  * alpha255 really likes apt-get :)
[04:15] <Anything> I just created a degraded raid 5 array,  and have been unable to find in 50 minutes of searching the simple question of how do I now add the last drive back into the array
[04:15] <Anything> I'm using mdadm
[04:17] <Seven_Six_Two> nickrud, haha. I do dsl tech support, so I know that there are other os's that will break just about everything, including itself. On a whim. At a really inopportune time. With no obvious logs or useful error messages (not counting "unknown error 0x80004005" of course!)
[04:18] <bazhang> nickrud, :)
[04:19] <SeaPhor> i saw
[04:21] <Rhorse> Is there a way to filter out the join and leave messages in xchat?
[04:21] <bazhang> Rhorse, right click channel name
[04:21] <nickrud> Rhorse right click the tab with the channel name on it, and select not showing
[04:21] <UNIKE> hi there
[04:22] <nickrud> welcome to #ubuntu UNIKE
[04:22] <Rhorse> ahh, thank you bazhang and nickrud!
[04:22] <stiv2k> Hey how come this ssl-cert package has been being kept back on my server for like a really long time?
[04:23] <Xpistos> Um... does anyone know is there any way to get ubuntu to recognize a zune as an mp3 player?
[04:24] <Seven_Six_Two> Xpistos, doesn't it show up as an external drive that you can drag and drop to?
[04:24] <stiv2k> Seven_Six_Two: Only if it uses USB mass storage I think
[04:25] <Xpistos> Seven_Six_TWO: nOPE
[04:25] <Seven_Six_Two> stiv2k, I realize that. Most devices like that operate in that manner now. Cameras, usb keys etc. That's a M$ product though
[04:26] <Xpistos> What is M$
[04:26] <Seven_Six_Two> Xpistos, do you get any output from dmesg when you plug it in? does lspci -v show it as being detected in any manner?
[04:26] <Seven_Six_Two> Xpistos, Microsoft.
[04:26] <Xpistos> Oh
[04:27] <Xpistos> Seven_Six_Two: If the Zune is off, the only thing it does is charge.I don't have anything show up in devices or media either
[04:28] <WaY> hello and Viva España
[04:28] <Seven_Six_Two> Xpistos, try installing libmtp and using amarok
[04:28]  * m_newton is back (gone 12:48:35)
[04:28] <orgthingy> wow
[04:29] <orgthingy> only ubuntu (one dist) has more than 6 million users
[04:29] <Xpistos> I already have that installed cause I also us a dell dj ditty and that is working, but amarok doesn't recognize it
[04:29] <orgthingy> I think 7 million users
[04:29] <orgthingy> 6 million (ubuntu) + millions use other linux distros = a lot
[04:29] <perlsyntax> anyone try installing perl-support.zip for gvim?
[04:29] <perlsyntax> i have hard time install it
[04:30] <perlsyntax> i have no prob on fedora 9
[04:30] <Xpistos> orgthingy: I would be that fedora and suse have some really big numbers too
[04:30] <timmy> VBoxManage internalcommands createrawvmdk -filename /home/me/.VirtualBox/WindowsXP.vmdk -rawdisk /dev/sda -partitions 1 -mbr winxp.mbr -relative -register why doesn't that create a vmdk file?  I installed the closed source
[04:30] <timmy> and added myself to the group
[04:31] <orgthingy> well, Debian and Debian-based (and debian-based-based) are the most popular distros
[04:31] <Seven_Six_Two> Xpistos, you don't get any output from dmesg when you plug it in with the power on? I read that libmtp will only let you read the zune anyhow. You could always ask M$ to make a linux driver for it.
[04:31] <bazhang> lets take distro chat to #ubuntu-offtopic
[04:31] <Xpistos> Seven_Six_Two: LOL
[04:32] <Mimi> QUESTION: hey, how do i figure out what wireless card I have? Im on Ubuntu Hardy Heron
[04:32] <bazhang> mimi lspci
[04:32] <Xpistos> Seven_Six_Two: Maybe they will also let me take a peak at the source code for the zune too
[04:32] <Seven_Six_Two> Mimi, try lspci -v
[04:32] <Jordan_U> Is there something wrong with the edgy repos?
[04:32] <WalloO> Seven_Six_Two, I love when people use M$.... seriously, this is ridiculous...
[04:33] <Seven_Six_Two> Xpistos, I would suggest maybe selling it and getting an iriver
[04:33] <bazhang> !ot
[04:33] <WalloO> Xpistos, Ipod works very well with ubuntu
[04:33] <tosomethin> hello
[04:34] <matthew_> Seven_Six_Two: I just fixed it, and i'm talking to you from linux now, although i'm not sure if I actually used the "single" option properly. I ended up with a normal login screen, and I just changed the session to "Failsafe terminal" then removed the module. Was this what was supposed to happen?
[04:34] <Xpistos> Seven_Six_Two: I looked at a couple but I haven't found one i want. I like the river clix, but not big enough, I want like 30gb, but since i am going open source and buying new I would also want ogg
[04:34] <Itai-Michaelson> is there anyway to install ubuntu without a CD , or with a very small CD that will download the files from the net?
[04:34] <securityadmin> how do i open rar archives
[04:34] <bazhang> Xpistos, you can get it going for first sync under vmware, then sync via wifi after that.
[04:34] <Xpistos> WalloO: I am not going from one rich Dick to another, but thanks for the suggestion
[04:34] <nickrud> !ot | Xpistos Seven_Six_Two on irivers/zune comparisons
[04:34] <Jordan_U> !rar | securityadmin
[04:35] <Seven_Six_Two> matthew_, that sounds right
[04:35] <securityadmin> ! rar
[04:35] <securityadmin> thank you
[04:35] <Xpistos> ubottu: Sorry. I didn't mean to be inappropriate
[04:36] <WalloO> Xpistos, the thing is: the more your system is used the better it is supported under linux... Unfortunately it works like that most of the time....
[04:36] <Seven_Six_Two> I understand about off topic, but this is related to compatibility with Ubuntu.
[04:36] <matthew_> I love it when ubottu does that, it makes everything ver surreal
[04:36] <matthew_> *very
[04:36] <bazhang> Seven_Six_Two, aye, but straying a bit too far :)
[04:36] <nickrud> Seven_Six_Two true, that's why whe have off-topic :)
[04:37] <orgthingy> http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FVbf9tOGwno < wtf?

[04:37] <bazhang> http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=611389&page=3 Xpistos
[04:37] <johnfg> hi guys
[04:37] <Seven_Six_Two> bazhang, nickrud , I've had this talk before. We can agree to disagree and I'll drop the topic...
[04:37] <johnfg> just in the process of installing the server, but had one question (so far).
[04:38] <nickrud> Seven_Six_Two it's a fine line sometimes, true
[04:38] <johnfg> The partitioning, which I'm doing manually is a little different than I'm used to.
[04:39] <johnfg> My question is, do I have to set my /boot partition to actually be bootable for ubuntu?  I did set the boot flag to on for my windows partition, but don't usually have to set it when installing linux.
[04:39] <nickrud> johnfg no, you don't
[04:39] <Seven_Six_Two> nickrud, I get in trouble at work for straying from "support boundaries" as well.
[04:39] <johnfg> nickrud, OK, I thought probably not, but didn't want to commit the table until I had made sure.
[04:39] <Flannel> johnfg: The only thing you have to do is make sure (if you're using LVM), /boot is not on LVM.  Everything else can be.
[04:39] <WalloO> johnfg, ubuntu use grub to boot and do not use the bootable partition system.
[04:40] <timmy> VMDK: could not create new file '/home/me/.VirtualBox/WindowsXP.vmdk'
[04:40] <timmy> Error code VERR_FILE_NOT_FOUND at /home/vbox/vbox-1.6.2/src/VBox/Devices/Storage/VmdkHDDCore.cpp(2546) in function int vmdkCreateRawImage(VMDKIMAGE*, VBOXHDDRAW*, uint64_t)
[04:40] <nickrud> Seven_Six_Two luckily my support work isn't computers at work, but more a full service type of thing. Don't have to worry about lines there ;)
[04:40] <johnfg> OK, sounds like I'd got everything right.  Do you think that I'll have any problem if I preserver my /home partition?
[04:41] <Xpistos> bazhang: I guess so. thanks for the heads up
[04:41] <nickrud> johnfg I always preserve the home and carry it over
[04:41] <johnfg> preserve.
[04:41] <boaz> wols, zeroing the hard drive (I've disconnected all but one) did not help.
[04:41] <bazhang> np
[04:41] <boaz> wols, any other ideas?
[04:41] <johnfg> nickrud, For info's sake, what desktop do you run?
[04:41] <nickrud> johnfg gnome, with some configs going back years
[04:41] <clintchance> Hey guys where can i get more repositories? Isnt there a tool on the ubuntu site that does this?
[04:42] <johnfg> nickrud, OK, cool.  I think that's what I'll try then.
[04:42] <bazhang> clintchance, backports or proposed?
[04:42] <WalloO> johnfg, you may not have problem
[04:42] <johnfg> nickrud, Do you have ubuntu-desktop installed as well?
[04:42] <meXeno> Guten Morgen
[04:42] <Seven_Six_Two> johnfg, that's a meta-package
[04:42] <clintchance> bazhang...   backports? what is
[04:42] <clintchance> !backports
[04:43] <Xpistos> so here is another question: is vmware working in heron?
[04:43] <nickrud> johnfg always, makes thinks simpler. Never use evolution, for example, but it just takes up a tiny bit of space. Having ubuntu-desktop installed makes keeping things in sync easier, since the dev's expect it.
[04:43] <bazhang> Xpistos, yes, but vbox may be easier to install and setup
[04:43] <Xpistos> ID-10-T question: What is a bot?
[04:43] <Seven_Six_Two> Xpistos, a script
[04:44] <Xpistos> ubottu: Blah blah blah
[04:44] <Xpistos> ubottu: Bleh, bleh bleh
[04:44] <Xpistos> lol
[04:44] <bazhang> Xpistos, /msg ubottu for fun if you wish
[04:44] <drako> 8.04 is gutsy ?
[04:45] <Xpistos> thanks
[04:45] <Flannel> drako: Hardy
[04:45] <Seven_Six_Two> drako, no. Hardy

[04:46] <Seven_Six_Two> kevin_, nobody knows what you need help with yet.
[04:46] <amenado> anyone happen to be using Miro and uses At&t ? do you know if AT&T throttles miro downloads?
[04:46] <clintchance> where can i get a new list of sources?
[04:47] <nickrud> clintchance what do you mean, a new list of sources?
[04:47] <bazhang> amenado, seems unlikely as miro uses http
[04:47] <Odd-rationale> clintchance: system --> admin --> software sources
[04:47] <clintchance> nickrud, ive seen a while back like maby 6.06 that ubuntu website had a sources list generator
[04:47] <l3d> hey how would i go about making a link or shortcut if you will to a game that has to be typed in to the terminal to run?
[04:48] <bazhang> clintchance, it is no longer.
[04:48] <amenado> bazhang-> its not http, if you download the client, I honestly dont know what port it uses to downloads
[04:48] <nickrud> clintchance ah, that was discontinued after feisty(?) because the one Odd-rationale gave you just above was built into ubuntu
[04:48] <johnfg> nickrud, Don't know if you were here earlier when I was discussing this, but would you install server first, then install desktop?  That's what I'm planning to do.
[04:48] <nickrud> johnfg primarily a desktop?
[04:48] <bazhang> amenado, hmm; are you getting really slow downloads? I am for sure not throttled and it can be very slow at times.
[04:48] <clintchance> ah
[04:48] <Odd-rationale> :)
[04:48] <johnfg> Both, pretty equal, I'd say.
[04:49] <nickrud> johnfg then I'd install the desktop.
[04:49] <kevin_> KCrash cannot reach kdeinit, launching directly.
[04:50] <johnfg> nickrud, And then just install what server components I need/want?
[04:50] <bazhang> lamp johnfg
[04:50] <amenado> bazhang it just kills the client rather crashes, and upon looking at the logs, its says too slow  ..happens so many times
[04:50] <nickrud> johnfg yes.
[04:51] <Kidfork> Has anyone here sucessfuly got MS office 2007 through WINE

[04:56] <clintchance> aircrack has no gui does it
[04:56] <Werenerd> OK guys, I am having a major brain fart. How do I set group permissions for a folder to be 777? chmod 777 /path/to/folder -r -v doesn't work
[04:57] <DIL> clintchance: try slax cd
[04:57] <clintchance> chmod 777 -r -v
[04:57] <nice_burger> howdy, my hardy just kinda frooze up on me here - irssi obviously still working - but 'application, places, system' and my off button are all fail. question is - after i kill the power and restart this computer, where can i look for a log report to see what happened? (frooze while i was typing in pidgin). thanks
[04:57] <clintchance> DIL, ok
[04:57] <Werenerd> clintchance: what about the path?
[04:57] <Neo_The_User> I have a question about Ubuntu
[04:57] <clintchance> werenerd after it all
[04:57] <wols> nice_burger: try to switch to a text console first
[04:57] <carlos> hi how can i upgrade the kernel?... i've got the 2.6.24-16 an i need the 2.6.24-19... i'm a newbie
[04:57] <Werenerd> at the end? chmod 777 -r -v /path/to/folder ?
[04:57] <wols> nice_burger: and run top there
[04:58] <wols> carlos: by installing it like any other program or package
[04:58] <Neo_The_User> If you have Ubuntu 8.04 what actual version of Ubuntu are you using?
[04:58] <DIL> carlos update
[04:58] <nice_burger> wols: thanks for idea - yes have done
[04:58] <clintchance> DIL, why?? That wasnt directed at me whas it?
[04:59] <Werenerd> clintchance: I am getting the same message: mode of `/media/Omni' retained as 0333 (-wx-wx-wx)
[04:59] <clintchance> sudo?
[04:59] <carlos> yes i've got 8.04
[04:59] <DIL> clintchance: thought yo want aircrack the c d has a lot of relevant/related tools
[04:59] <Neo_The_User> carlos go to system > administration > software sources > click updates and make sure all 4 boxes on the top are checked. hit close, you should reload the channels or whatever, go to terminal, type in sudo update-manager -d
[05:00] <nice_burger> wols: i see a lot of what my bro would call 'hooha'. what am i looking for in top?
[05:00] <clintchance> DIL, i got aircrack but im not sure on how to use it.   I was just wondering if it  had a GUI at all
[05:00] <DIL> clintchance: ok
[05:00] <perlsyntax> what this error mean
[05:01] <perlsyntax> Can't stat /usr/local/share/perl/5.8.8: No such file or directory
[05:02] <Neo_The_User> UBUNTU 8.10 IS NOW OUT!
[05:02] <perlsyntax> i think that odd i never had any prob with this
[05:02] <Neo_The_User> LIKE IN UPDATE MANAGER
[05:02] <Neo_The_User> OMG!
[05:02] <nice_burger> wols: well thanks, i'll restart now, will look into using top in meantime, for next time
[05:02] <bazhang> caps Neo_The_User
[05:02] <Flannel> Neo_The_User: No its not.    Go to #ubuntu+1 ;)
[05:03] <Flannel> HeXiLed: via http: 80
[05:03] <perlsyntax> my gvim
[05:04] <DIL> he is gone
[05:04] <ankit> guys tell me hgw to installed Dansguardian  on ubuntu
[05:04] <Flannel> ankit: sudo apt-get install dansguardian
[05:04] <perlsyntax> mmm
[05:04] <johnfg> Well, that I know, but usually, since I'm coming from redhat, fedora, centos
[05:04] <carlos> i'm have kubuntu and the adept to manage programs
[05:04] <poseidon> perlsyntax, I'm more of a python person, but you might have better luck on #perl (I have heard the guys in there can be assholes, however).
[05:04] <ankit> thanks flannel
[05:05] <carlos> which one do  i have to update to update the kernel?
[05:05] <johnfg> I install the whole works, so get server and desktop; although some are stronger servers, some fancier desktops.
[05:05] <jeriath> anyone here use a pci to ide controller?
[05:05] <johnfg> nickrud, Why would you not install server, then desktop?  Too much in there that you feel that you don't need?
[05:06] <Flannel> carlos: If you have linux-generic installed, and are up to date, your kernel is updated
[05:06] <jeriath> i have a rosewill one and cant find any specific drivers for it and was wondering if there were any generic drivers i could use
[05:06] <nickrud> johnfg for the kernel, primarily. I've forgotten the details, but the kernels in server/desktop are somewhat tuned for each environment.
[05:07] <alpha255> apt-get tomcat5.5_5.5.25-5ubuntu1_all doesn't seem to work
[05:07] <carlos> i have 2.6.24-16-generic and i need 2.6.24-19-generic
[05:07] <johnfg> Ok then.  Maybe I'll sleep on it, then make my decision how I want to go in the morning.
[05:07] <Onebeer> does this error mean the machine up but the ssh isn't started: ssh: connect to host <IP_ADDRESS> port 22: Connection refused
[05:07] <amenado> carlos also if you do  apt-cache search  linux-image   i would think it would list the latest
[05:07] <alpha255> Onebeer try netstat -tan
[05:08] <alpha255> on the server
[05:08] <Flannel> carlos: install linux-generic
[05:08] <alpha255> look for port 22
[05:09] <Onebeer> alpha255: nast -m shows it online as well..guess the service isn't started..damn ..and no monitor on that box
[05:09] <carlos> Flannel: i have 2.6.24-16-generic and i need 2.6.24-19-generic
[05:10] <klenz87> hey i have two nvidia cards installed is it possible to run dual screens??
[05:10] <alpha255> Onebeer ahhh well hummm that would be a catch 22 eh?
[05:10] <alpha255> Onebeer apt-get install openssh-server will pull down the server for the machine
[05:10] <alpha255> then you'll need to open port 22 in the firewall
[05:11] <Scunizi> If there is more than 1 user on a box and someone installs the restricted extras (codecs) .. will they work for everyone or only that one person?
[05:11] <amenado> Scunizi-> only root can install, therefore it applies to all
[05:11] <alpha255> Scunizi my guess is all
[05:12] <Scunizi> Thanks amenado & alpha255
[05:12] <klenz87> anyone dual graphics cards??
[05:13] <Werenerd> Aha! the problem was the -r. Recursive should have been -R for chmod
[05:13] <Werenerd> just in case anyone needed to know
[05:13] <ankit>  how to installed sudo apt-get update for Dansguardian
[05:13] <erat123> what's everyones favorite dvd movie player for ubuntu?  i'm looking for something besides vlc
[05:13] <Flannel> ankit: sudo apt-get install dansguardian
[05:15] <ankit> i instaled Dansguardian  but it;s not  working
[05:16] <PsuedoBob> Hey, I was here earlier asking about getting a partition set as the boot partition, which I unflagged yesterday by accident...
[05:16] <bullgard4> stat /etc/acpi/sleep.sh prints: "Blocks: 8" What considers the stat command as 'Blocks'?
[05:16] <alpha255> anyone installed tomcat on server 8.04?
[05:17] <PsuedoBob> Is there anyway to flag a partition as "boot" without actually running windows/linux?  Because whenever I turn on my computer nothing happens.
[05:17] <alpha255> the tomcat cannel is really quiet
[05:17] <alpha255> PsuedoBob doesn't fdisk allow for that?
[05:17] <PsuedoBob> fdisk?
[05:18] <Flannel> PsuedoBob: boot flags don't matter, unless you're running DOS
[05:18] <alpha255> PsuedoBob  man fdisk will give you more info while in a terminal window
[05:18] <alpha255> PsuedoBob be careful fdisk can wipe out things too
[05:18] <ankit> Dansguardian is unable to installed ... i am trying a lots of time but it;s not installed
[05:18] <christoz> hello there i'm trying to set up the JAVA_HOME path into the /etc/bash.bashc  in order to use startup  tomcat-liferay
[05:18] <Flannel> ankit: What error does it give you?
[05:19] <alpha255> christoz u using 8.04 server?
[05:19] <christoz> but always throws the same message Neither the JAVA_HOME nor the JRE_HOME environment variable is defined
[05:19] <christoz> At least one of these environment variable is needed to run this program
[05:19] <christoz> no desktop
[05:19] <PsuedoBob> Well, all I know is I unflagged the partition as boot, and then restarted my computer.  And then it didn't do anything.
[05:19] <Flannel> PsuedoBob: What do you mean by "doesnt do anything"?
[05:19] <alpha255> christoz did you install tomcat via apt-get ?
[05:20] <PsuedoBob> I turn on my computer, and it said it couldn't find a boot... thing...
[05:20] <christoz> no apha is a bundle with tomcat and liferay
[05:20] <christoz> alpha255, http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=844069
[05:20] <Flannel> PsuedoBob: Are you using GRUB as a bootloader?
[05:20] <LaserLine> Anyone know how to add a backend for Empathy?
[05:21] <SAS_Spidey01> Did someone in here send a lad by the name of 'perlsyntax' to #vim over missing directories?
[05:21] <mib_ik4eba> Hi everyone, I think I have a HUGE problem that arised from installing ubuntu.
[05:21] <Flannel> SAS_Spidey01: Nope
[05:21] <PsuedoBob> I don't know, what's GRUB? :/
[05:21] <SAS_Spidey01> Flannel: thank goodness...
[05:21] <nickrud> SAS_Spidey01 he was here, but I didn't see anyone send him there
[05:21] <ankit> actually if u installed any softwear .and it;s installed properly  then there is is a  logo unbuntu logo ..but when i installed Dansguardian  logo is not found
[05:22] <mib_ik4eba> I had Vista ultimate installed on a partition, and I deleted an XP partition and installed ubuntu on that.  Grub loader will not find vista, and when i flag the vista partition to boot, it says bootmgr not found.
[05:22] <SAS_Spidey01> With the way he was talking, for a moment I thought people might be playing pass the pipe :\
[05:22] <Flannel> ankit: What?  The logo won't be there.  Thats only for stuff in main, dansguardian is in universe
[05:22] <nickrud> SAS_Spidey01 let me check the logs
[05:22] <LaserLine> When I installed Empathy it says to add an account I need to install a backend for each protocol i want to use... anyone know how to do this?
[05:23] <PsuedoBob> I do have the Windows XP installation disk, and an apparently non-working Ubuntu live CD
[05:23] <Flannel> SAS_Spidey01: someone sent him to #perl
[05:23] <fenrisx> howdy everyone
[05:23] <mib_ik4eba> Does anyone have a solution where vista will boot, ive tried repairing the startup stuff from the install CD.
[05:24] <SAS_Spidey01> hehe , if I was in #perl I would've sent him here
[05:24] <PsuedoBob> I think I'm kinda screwed I think...
[05:24] <mib_ik4eba> You and me both Psuedo..
[05:24] <fenrisx> Can anyone tell me what this noise I occasionally hear is?  It happens at random.. just these two tones "doo do".. sounds like a keyboard lol.
[05:24] <|gandhii|> alien implant
[05:24] <christoz> alpha255, any ideas :D ?
[05:25] <teethdood> GAIM chat noise?
[05:25] <alpha255> christoz did you add the varible ?
[05:25] <alpha255> JAVA_HOME=/usr/lib/jvm/java-6-sun-<IP_ADDRESS>/
[05:25] <fenrisx> Yeah, must be Pidgin..
[05:25] <ankit> ya i installed Dansguardian but it;s unable to stop porn site ...
[05:25] <SAS_Spidey01> cheers
[05:25] <fenrisx> Right before you said that I clicked on my buddy list and thought.. "maybe its this."
[05:25] <fenrisx> thanks teethdood.. that's probably it

[05:26] <christoz> alpha255, ok thanks..do you have it installe?
[05:27] <alpha255> i'm trying a manual install
[05:27] <ankit> Dansguardian is installed properly but it;s unable to stop porn site ... there is something mistake aur do something else for it
[05:27] <PsuedoBob> So does anyone know if I can set a partition as boot from the Windows Recovery Console?
[05:27] <alpha255> christoz not the liferay part
[05:28] <clintchance> wow im really amazed at this theme i found on gnome eye candy. it made the entire os Windows XP... but for a touch.   Anyone know how to add text in a vertical direction to the main menu?
[05:28] <christoz> alpha255,  ok i don't think that liferay is the problem

[05:29] <TheLorax> I was upgrading to 8.04 (I think) and my laptop battery stopped working. I can't boot into x anymore, but I can logon without the gui. any tips to recover from that? There are no errors
[05:29] <christoz> alpha255, i've followed the same guide but din't work for me :(
[05:30] <PsuedoBob> You could use Wine to run Windows Media Player, fyreme
[05:30] <alpha255> christoz hummm let me try
[05:30] <PsuedoBob> If nothing else
[05:30] <TheLorax> I type in my uname and passwd and then nothing
[05:30] <fyreme> I have no luck with wine
[05:30] <TheLorax> fyreme, I've never had problems with wmv and mplayer...
[05:30] <fyreme> mplayer?
[05:30] <TheLorax> install it
[05:30] <TheLorax> apt-get
[05:31] <co-PiloT> co_sma
[05:31] <co-PiloT> hi
[05:31] <christoz> alpha255, i'm using this bundle "liferay-portal-tomcat-5.5-jdk5-4.4.2.zip"
[05:31] <Josdell> Hello guys,  um im trying to make an ISO but mkisofs is replaced by genisoimage but genisoimage didnt come with mkisofs, so I can't use mkisofs, any solutions?
[05:32] <TheLorax> Josdell, use mkisofs...
[05:32] <sauvin> I HAVE had trouble with wmv and mplayer - there is *nothing* I have that'll play Blue Ray captures done on a Windows machine because they use some new codec.
[05:32] <fyreme> mplayer is installed and it wanted a codec
[05:32] <Josdell> TheLorax: I don't have mkisofs
[05:32] <alpha255> christoz i d/l  apache-tomcat-6.0.16.zip
[05:32] <TheLorax> Josdell, why not?
[05:33] <clintchance> Hey guys in the main menu applet. On the right side of it how can i add text to it
[05:33] <sauvin> fyreme, what was the codec, do you remember?
[05:33] <ZippyP> Need some help with installing (nvidia-gtx-new)   drivers  Envy does not work due to error in removal of old drivers
[05:33] <fyreme> one sec
[05:33] <christoz> alpha255, ok tell me if it worked under your fingers :P
[05:33] <TheLorax> ZippyP, have you trried without x running?
[05:34] <Josdell> TheLorax: I have no idea, but when i type in mkisofs in the Terminal, I get a mkisofs is not installed, you can install it by installing genisoimage. So i try to install genisoimage but the Terminal says it's already installed
[05:34] <ohaidar> I have a very bad problem.  I installed ubuntu on a separate partition and had vista installed on another.  Grub loader wont find vista, and when I try to set the boot flag for the vista partition, it tells me bootmgr is missing.
[05:34] <ZippyP> I'm  fairly new to this.  X server?
[05:34] <fyreme> gstreamer but it said it might be illegal?
[05:34] <TheLorax> Josdell, install mkisofs....it's a standard tool. apt should have it. search for it
[05:34] <unop> Josdell, why not use genisoimage instead ?
[05:35] <TheLorax> ZippyP, Ctrl+alt+F1....then ctrl-F7 to get back here
[05:35] <sauvin> The legality you're talking about is a civil matter - it involves a licensing issue - it's not a criminal matter.
[05:35] <alpha255> christoz got it woking
[05:35] <sauvin> fyreme, tell me, what's in your /usr/lib/codecs?
[05:35] <alpha255> woking = working
[05:35] <alpha255> at least for /me
[05:35] <alpha255> ;)
[05:36] <Josdell> TheLorax: It might be because i might not have the multiverse repository enabled, i don't i think  do.
[05:36] <fyreme> one sec please
[05:36] <sauvin> fyreme, I'll give you whole MINUTES. :D
[05:36] <ohaidar> Can someone please help? I have a new graphics card coming in the mail tomorrow and I really want to use it with my windows games..
[05:36] <TheLorax> Josdell, I dunno. I don't actually use ubuntu...only on here trying to help my sister "P
[05:36] <Josdell> unop: because the guide I'm following uses mkisofs, and I don't know how to replace it with genisoimage
[05:36] <christoz> alpha255, hmm...what am i doing wrong...i suppose i should install the same packet
[05:36] <alpha255> TheLorax did you got to a west coast school?
[05:36] <TheLorax> alpha255, wtf.....
[05:37] <TheLorax> alpha255, no
[05:37] <alpha255> TheLorax i knew someone with an email and nickname like yours
[05:37] <Josdell> TheLorax: Oh, lol hanks anyway
[05:37] <alpha255> sorry
[05:37] <christoz> alpha255, what are the paths you've entered into the .bashc?
[05:37] <Josdell> unop: can you help me?
[05:37] <LaserLine> ohaidar: you should just be able to pop in and install the restricted drivers and install wine... as long as the games are wine compatable installing the games is the same as in windows
[05:37] <alpha255> christoz i put it in startup.sh
[05:37] <fyreme> no such directory
[05:37] <christoz> hmm...in which line please?
[05:37] <alpha255> # $Id: startup.sh<PHONE_NUMBER>-08-04 22:13:58Z markt $   right under this line
[05:38] <sauvin> fyreme, I don't remember how to get those codecs from the ubuntu repos (W32codecs, maybe?) - what I did was bop over to the mplayer site, downloaded all the codecs and shoved them into /usr/lib/codecs.
[05:38] <clintchance> people. Anyone know ow to add text to the mainmenu on the side like a windows. Although it wont say windows
[05:38] <christoz> alpha255, ok i'm on it thanks for your time
[05:38] <ohaidar> I have some games installed on my external hard drive like world of warcraft.  Will i be able to just mess with some settings and be able to play it?
[05:39] <TheLorax> ohaidar, are you talking about wine?
[05:39] <alpha255> christoz no worries
[05:39] <alpha255> i learned too :)
[05:39] <ohaidar> yeah
[05:39] <fyreme> ls on /usr/lib starts with letter l?
[05:39] <TheLorax> ohaidar, search wine app databse
[05:39] <TheLorax> ohaidar, then inside that seach for wow
[05:39] <ohaidar> im really new to linux, and to be honest i just want to get back to vista, which wont boot because of installing ubuntu.
[05:40] <TheLorax> ohaidar, what wont it boot?
[05:40] <TheLorax> ohaidar, no option?
[05:40] <Jester45> ohaidar: if you formated vista's parttiion you will have to reisntall if not grub will let you boot both
[05:40] <ohaidar> yes, grub gives me no option.
[05:40] <unop> Josdell, genisoimage --cap -o filename.iso  /path/to/directory
[05:40] <Josdell> unop: how do I use this?
[05:40] <ohaidar> and i tried making the vista partition the boot partition, and it gives me bootmgr not found
[05:41] <TheLorax> ohaidar, I think grub is in /boot/grub/grub.conf, edit it then reintstall
[05:41] <unop> Josdell, at the command line
[05:41] <clintchance> wow i dont think anyone has attempted this
[05:41] <christoz> alpha255, did you instert this "export JAVA_HOME=/usr/lib/jvm/java-6-sun-<IP_ADDRESS>"?
[05:41] <fyreme> sauvin can you check what directory you put the codecs in?
[05:41] <Josdell> unop: can we take this to personal chat?
[05:41] <ohaidar> i really have no clue what im doing in linux, thelorax, can you please tell me step by step and tell me all the commands?
[05:42] <clintchance> hey the main menu has a blue bar on it there for it should be able to be eddited. Anyone know where i could find the file
[05:42] <TheLorax> ohaidar, sudo mount /boot
[05:42] <unop> Josdell, we could but this channel exists so other people can provide input and help you
[05:42] <clintchance> looks as if theme set
[05:42] <sinn2df> having a problem with my / drive filling up after a few hours of running.  when i boot my / partion is is only using 6 gigs, now it is 14 gigs.  anyreason why this is happening, where the influx of data is located, and why it is being written to my / partion instead of swap?
[05:42] <sauvin> fyreme, I DID check, so as not to give you false advise. My /usr/lib/codecs has all kinds of Windows DLL files, which are the codecs mplayer uses for some of the files it can play.
[05:42] <TheLorax> ohaidar, nano /boot/grub/grub.conf
[05:42] <alpha255> christoz export JAVA_HOME=/usr/lib/jvm/java-6-sun
[05:42] <LaserLine> Anyone here using Empathy for their Instant Messaging?
[05:42] <christoz> ok
[05:42] <fyreme> hmmm
[05:42] <Jester45> ohaidar: you might have erased vista's bootloader
[05:42] <alpha255> christoz is has to match the actual path
[05:42] <TheLorax> ohaidar, but then you're on your own since it's system specific
[05:42] <alpha255> in the file system
[05:42] <fyreme> why would I have that directory the sauvin?
[05:42] <Josdell> unop: the original command is this: sudo mkisofs -b boot/grub/stage2_eltorito \
[05:43] <Josdell> unop: how would I change it?
[05:43] <PsuedoBob> Gah!  My Ubuntu live cd won't let me run ubuntu with changes.
[05:43] <Jester45> sinn2df: check and see how big /tmp is and /var
[05:43] <sauvin> Fyreme, if you used the Ubuntu repos to download and install Windows codecs, I imagine that's where they would have wound up.
 what was that supposed to do besides reboot?
[05:43] <ohaidar> i tried booting into my vista install disk and repairing, didnt work.
[05:43] <christoz> alpha255, BRAVO it worked
[05:43] <unop> Josdell, what kind of iso are you making? or should i ask, what are you making an ISO of?
[05:43] <alpha255> christoz sweeeet! :)
[05:43] <fyreme> Ubuntu repos sauvin?
[05:43] <christoz> :D
[05:43] <Josdell> I am making an ISO of a Live CD
[05:43] <PsuedoBob> Er, without changes.
[05:44] <clintchance> AH NOT FUNNY its a stupid recurring image..... darn
[05:44] <ohaidar> so what would be the best course of action to get vista to work then?
[05:44] <sauvin> Erm, this IS the Ubuntu channel, yes? (I"m not crosschatting?)
[05:44] <unop> Josdell, err, it's easier if you install mkisofs. run this command.  sudo aptitude install mkisofs
[05:44] <sinn2df> Jester45: is there a command line way to do that.  / is at 100% and cannot open file browser.  ls -lh is only giving me the size of 4k for the folders.
[05:44] <ohaidar> im talking about doing this from ubuntu
[05:44] <Jester45> sauvin: he is trying to dual boot linux/vista
[05:44] <Josdell> unop: will try
[05:45] <ohaidar> i have no flipping idea what im doing when using linux
[05:45] <sauvin> I thought fyreme was dealing with a wmv/mplayer issue.
[05:45] <Jester45> sinn2df: why cant you open a filebrowser?
[05:45] <PsuedoBob> Why won't my livecd work??
[05:45] <unop> Josdell, genisoimage can do it too, but it's much more complex and it takes much longer reading it's manpage (its fairly long)
[05:46] <nickrud> ohaidar the simplest way to get vista back (you said you don't want ubuntu?) is to download and use the super grub disk.
[05:46] <Josdell> unop: Oh my gosh I can't believe I didn't think to use aptitude at this situation, thank you so much
[05:46] <ZippyP> What is up here on this  IRC is this hit and run help?  Second time someone gives u info then logs off.
[05:46] <Fungusman> Anyone know why my jy01 direction wont work in xmame, but the buttons will ?
[05:46] <sinn2df> i try and it will not start.  acts like it will but just stops
[05:46] <Jester45> sinn2df: du -s -h /var
[05:46] <Josdell> unop: joseph@joseph-laptop:~$ mkisofs
[05:46] <Josdell> The program 'mkisofs' is currently not installed.  You can install it by typing:
[05:46] <Josdell> sudo apt-get install genisoimage
[05:46] <Josdell> bash: mkisofs: command not found
[05:46] <FloodBot1> Josdell: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[05:47] <Jester45> sinn2df: just let it run for a little bit permission denied will show up for a few places
[05:47] <Fungusman> the joystick works under jscalibrator
[05:47] <unop> Josdell,   sudo aptitude install mkisofs
[05:47] <Jester45> Josdell: install mkisofs then.... it gives you the command
[05:47] <ZippyP> Need some help please with installing (nvidia-gtx-new) drivers  Envy does not work due to error in removal of old drivers
[05:48] <fyreme> I am sauvin
[05:48] <fyreme> can you still help?
[05:48] <Josdell> unop: it says it is not installed
[05:48] <sinn2df> var is at 8.8 gigs
[05:48] <unop> Josdell, did you run that command at all?
[05:48] <sauvin> fyreme, where did you get the wmv you're trying to play?
[05:49] <Josdell> unop: yes
[05:49] <fyreme> on a cd
[05:49] <sauvin> What CD?
[05:49] <Josdell> mv /usr/bin/genisoimage /root/genisoimage
[05:50] <ce_oRigiNal> kul
[05:50] <Josdell> oops
[05:50] <Josdell> sorry
[05:50] <fyreme> Train Signal
[05:50] <unop> Josdell, ahh, seems like ubuntu no longer provides the real mkisofs package -- guess you will have to make do with genisoimage
[05:50] <sauvin> OK, what do trains and their signals have to do with CDs and wmv files?
[05:50] <Josdell> unop: can I find the package online?
[05:50] <clintchance> guys, what file do i edit to change the main menu icon?
[05:51] <fyreme> Train Signal is a cbt video
[05:52] <carlos> The present kernel configuration has modules disabled.Type 'make config' and enable loadable module support.
[05:52] <carlos> Then build a kernel with module support enabled
[05:52] <unop> Josdell,  I assume you can, but it appears that genisoimage is replacing mkisofs on most distributions -- which could mean that mkisofs is fairly old and no longer maintained actively
[05:52] <carlos> how do i enable loadable module support?
[05:52] <ZippyP> Need some help please with re-installing (nvidia-gtx-new) drivers.  Envy does not work due to error in removal of old drivers and screwed the system up. now only 800x600 available
[05:53] <Josdell> unop: but technically I could still install mkisofs?
[05:53] <unop> Josdell, you should be able to replace the mkisofs command you have there with this one.   genisoimage -o filename.iso /path/to/directory_to_backup
[05:54] <josh__> i'm trying to get a video background on my debianbox i've researched quite a bit and i found this site:
[05:54] <Fungusman> I just lucked outand fixed it !
[05:54] <Fungusman> hurray !
[05:54] <josh__> http://groups.google.com/group/comp.os.linux.advocacy/msg/599d2428ac669edb
[05:54] <unop> Josdell, technically _maybe_ - i'm not saying it is a definite yes
[05:54] <carlos> The present kernel configuration has modules disabled ... any ideas on how to fix this??
[05:55] <sauvin> fyreme, did mplayer tell you what codec it wanted in order to be able to play it?
[05:55] <unop> josh__, sounds like a question to ask in #debian not #ubuntu
[05:55] <fyreme> one sec
[05:55] <Josdell> unop: alright, I'll try some things out, thanks for all the help.
[05:55] <josh__> oh my bad
[05:55] <fyreme> no
[05:56] <carlos> how can i get this command work properly "sudo make modules_install"
[05:56] <fyreme> wait
[05:56] <fyreme> asm demuxer
[05:56] <sauvin> "asm demuxer"?
[05:57] <fyreme> advanced streaming format demuxer plugin
[05:57] <sauvin> It refuses to play your wmv, right? Can you capture all the output mplayer puts out and pastebin it?
[05:57] <fyreme> how?
[05:57] <fyreme> how do i capture the output?
[05:57] <carlos> The present kernel configuration has modules disabled.Type 'make config' and enable loadable module support. ... how do i fix this_
[05:57] <sauvin> fyreme, how are you launching mplayer?
[05:58] <unop> fyreme, at a terminal.   mplayer /path/to/file.wmv
[05:58] <fyreme> ok
[05:59] <newToLinux> hi all, i´m trying to install gyachi with it´s plugins. But, when i tried to install the gyachi-xmms plugin, the installer say dependencies not satisfiable: xmms. I used synaptic to install xmms, but there are so many xmms variant, which one should i install for gyachi? help for an advise here please
[06:00] <newToLinux> this is the link to the program: http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=158490
[06:00] <unop> newToLinux, xmms  but i think xmms has been phased out so it might not be installable
[06:00] <Flannel> newToLinux: xmms isn't in the repos.  xmms2 is, and there are some other things similar, like audacious
[06:00] <unop> newToLinux, can't you skip the gyachi-xmms plugin ?
[06:01] <newToLinux> i´ve installed xmms2 through synaptic and try to install the plugin back, but it still say dependency not satisfiable
[06:01] <fyreme> www.pastebin.com?
[06:01] <Flannel> newToLinux: thats because to install it you need xmms, which xmms2 isn't.  Is there any alternative you can use?
[06:01] <sauvin> Oh, gah, there are more pastebins than I care to count. I use pastebin.ca; you may use whatever you like.
[06:02] <newToLinux> Flannel: i don´t know other way to use?
[06:02] <unop> newToLinux, did you read what i said up there?  xmms is no longer available - so try and skip installing gyachi-xmms
[06:02] <coolbam14> i need help everytime i start ubuntu i get the busybox
[06:02] <newToLinux> unop: what does xmms for anyway?
[06:02] <unop> newToLinux, xmms is a multimedia player - a winamp-like clone for linux
[06:02] <fyreme> http://www.pastebin.ca/1058778
[06:03] <newToLinux> i just install all the plugins to hope that it will work like yahoo with all it´s feature like voice chat and webcam through ltsp client
[06:03] <coolbam14> anyone?
[06:03] <newToLinux> unop: i see, so it´s not a very important plugin then?
[06:03] <sauvin> fyreme, you don't have mplayer installed?
[06:03] <Flannel> newToLinux: gyachi isn't in the repos.  Are you using Ubuntu?
[06:03] <unop> newToLinux, not very important no
[06:03] <coolbam14> i need help everytime i start ubuntu i get the busybox anyone??
[06:04] <fyreme> yeah sounds like it
[06:04] <newToLinux> i´ll try to skip this plugin and run the messenger through ltsp, see if it working alright
[06:04] <unop> Flannel, he could be installing from source or a binary tarball
[06:04] <newToLinux> Flannel: yes, i´m using ubuntu
[06:04] <fyreme> thought it was installed in synaptic
[06:04] <fyreme> ap-get?
[06:04] <Flannel> unop: then it wouldn't be complaining about dependenceis in apt
[06:04] <newToLinux> no, i download the deb package
[06:04] <ubuntu> hello all.  I just installed ubuntu, but for some reason my system boots up as the user ubuntu without prompting for a password.  how can I stop this?
[06:04] <Flannel> newToLinux: Where did you get gyachi?
[06:04] <newToLinux> and i just double click on the package
[06:04] <fyreme> is there a eb package?
[06:05] <unop> Flannel, iirc, the error message said nothing about apt
[06:05] <newToLinux> http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=158490
[06:05] <sauvin> synaptic is just a front end to apt-get. use synaptic to make sure mplayer is installed, and install this, too: w32codecs
[06:05] <newToLinux> yes
[06:05] <newToLinux> fyreme: there´s deb packages for it
[06:05] <fyreme> is it illegal in the USA?
[06:05] <Flannel> unop: the "dependency not satisfyable: xmms" is an apt/dpkg/gdebi error
[06:05] <nickrud> grr, synpatic is not a front end to apt-get, it's a front to apt, as is apt-get
[06:06] <newToLinux> fyreme: i don´t about usa, i don´t know also about in my country?
[06:06] <newToLinux> legal for what?
[06:06] <sinnd2f> thanks for the help Jester45, now to just get my router to stop killing my connection
[06:06] <unop> Flannel, errm, not necessarily, that error message could easily be hardcoded into a ./configure script
[06:06] <newToLinux> Flannel: the gdebi error? you mean the installer couldn´t read the package?
[06:07] <fyreme> sauvin i got a message that said it may be illegal in some countries?
[06:07] <Jester45> sinnd2f: what was the last thing i said
[06:07] <sauvin> fyreme, I got the same message. I can't repeat in the channel what I said in response.
[06:07] <Flannel> newToLinux: No, your package is fine, its just not going to work on hardy (the -plugin-xmms one).  The others may all work.
[06:07] <cgs_bob> hello all.  I just installed ubuntu, but for some reason my system boots up as the user ubuntu without prompting for a password.  how can I stop this?
[06:08] <fyreme> lol
[06:08] <bazhang> cgs_bob, did you remove the cd?
[06:08] <fyreme> what is multiverse? I just installed it with synaptic
[06:08] <fyreme> is this an issue
[06:08] <fyreme> sorry I didn't see your pastebin
[06:08] <Flannel> fyreme: you didn't install multiverse, you enabled it.
[06:08] <newToLinux> ok, thanks for the help guys
[06:08] <Flannel> !multiverse | fyreme
[06:08] <newToLinux> i´ll try the program now
[06:08]  * newToLinux logging out
[06:09] <sauvin> fyreme, sooner or later, it's going to be illegal to go to the bathroom without a license. That's not going to stop people from going, although it MAY make the streets a bit more disgusting. Unless you're ripping and distributing copyrighted materials, don't worry about the legality of having some codecs and players on your computer.
[06:09] <cgs_bob> bazhang: yes I did.  I installed it using a program to install ubuntu to a flash drive
[06:09] <bazhang> cgs_bob, which program? got a link?
[06:09] <Faust> hey
[06:09] <NowImJustLazy> Whoops, wrong IRC
[06:09] <Faust> confidential
[06:10] <sinnd2f> Jester45: delete the files, then i lost net again.  i am hoping that by stoping nmbd from looking for connections will stop my router from kicking me off.  not sure if a route does that kind of proactive security but its the only thing i can think of that would explain why my computer is the only one that loses connection every hours
[06:10] <cgs_bob> bazhang: unfortunately I don't remember :)  I'll see if I can access my hard drive and see it
[06:11] <harshal> hi
[06:11] <harshal> can anyone read this?

[06:13] <Fatsobob> question: for gfire what is a working version number to put for the advanced config? 93 doesnt work and that is the most up to date version on xfire's site
[06:13] <Jester45> fyreme: use system -> administration -> software sources
[06:13] <unop> jlulian38, you can have anything in a filename except / (and something else i don't remember)
[06:13] <harshal> anyone using SONY VAIO FZ35GN?
[06:14] <Varak_> what do i have to apt-get to get qmake for Qt4
[06:14] <fyreme> ok jester45 now what should i do?
[06:15] <Jester45> check multiverse
[06:15] <fyreme> it is checked jester45
[06:15] <sinnd2f> Jester45: running KDE, so dont have that little easter egg
[06:16] <Jester45> sinnd2f: sucks for you
[06:16] <cgs_bob> bazhang: I'm using http://unetbootin.sourceforge.net/ . I should check the website and see if there is a solution, but if you got any ideas, I'll be glad to listen :)
[06:16] <fyreme> i got a whole bunch of errors when i ran mplayer filename
[06:16] <Jester45> fyreme: then mutliverse is enabled
[06:16] <Varak_> I have qmake but i need to get qmake for Qt4
[06:16] <fyreme> should i pastebin them?
[06:17] <unop> fyreme, they aren't necessarily errors - most of it is mplayers output
[06:17] <Varak_> is there a way to search what apt-get gets
[06:17] <Jester45> fyreme: sure
[06:18] <topsakatanner> ctrl + f gets the find box
[06:18] <Jester45> Varak_: what do you mean
[06:18] <akahige> I get a lot of missing codec "errors" using Totem on Hardy. are there places to look for other codecs? sometimes Totem will say what it needs, but a codec search won't find anything to play it...
[06:18] <Buckeye> anyone had the problem of the installer not finding a partition?
[06:18] <topsakatanner> oops, I mean in synaptic package manager
[06:19] <esac> akahige: sudo apt-get install non-free-codecs
[06:19] <Varak_> Jester45: my configure is telling me qmake for Qt4 not found
[06:19] <fyreme> http://www.pastebin.ca/1058783 jester45
[06:19] <Varak_> my qmake -v is telling me it's 3.3.5b
[06:19] <unop> Varak_, maybe this one ..  qt4-dev-tools
[06:19] <Varak_> ok thank you
[06:19] <bignoodle> hi
[06:20] <unop> Varak_, or  qt3-dev-tools if you are dealing with Qt3
[06:20] <harshal> anyone using hardy on SONY VAIO ?
[06:20] <Varak_> what im using is looking for qt4
[06:21] <Jester45> fyreme: try mplayer -vo x11 filename
[06:21] <Varak_> the qt4-dev-tools installed something
[06:21] <Varak_> but its still complaing
[06:21] <gnax> hi all
[06:21] <fyreme> ok jester45
[06:21] <unop> Varak_, use the !pastebin and show us the exact command you used and messages you get
[06:21] <gnax> checking out the new netbook remix alpha
[06:21] <gnax> pretty nice
[06:21] <bignoodle> how do I make hardy boot into a console / not directly on Xorg
[06:21]  * sauvin did an "mplayer movie_trailer.avi" to watch "movie trailer" from the command line
[06:22] <unop> bignoodle, disable your display manager
[06:22] <gnax> could install server edition bignoodle
[06:22] <LiraNuna> anyone knows any nice looking graphical boot loaders?
[06:22] <akahige> esac: thanks. I'm still getting errors for no XVID, Windows Media, and DivX... any thoughts there...?

[06:23] <Jester45> LiraNuna: you mean GUI with a mouse... there are none but you can add images and format to grub
[06:24] <akahige> esac: thanks.  will do...
[06:24] <unop> Varak_, according to http://packages.ubuntu.com/search?suite=default&section=all&arch=any&searchon=contents&keywords=qmake you need libqt4-dev
[06:24] <LiraNuna> Jester45, not necessarily with a mouse, keys would do too
[06:24] <fyreme> jester45 no go
[06:24] <fyreme> maybe i need a codec?
[06:24] <fyreme> should I pastebin again?

[06:30] <adityag> unop: but i have not changed it...some1 else changed it....i have never heard of viruses on ubuntu but i guess it must be virus
[06:30] <fyreme> got an error when i tried to install the codec
[06:30] <bogui> if I'm trying to use aircrack, madwifi drivers, kismet etc. should i remove nm-applet
[06:30] <klenz87> jester45: then what?
[06:31] <sauvin> What error?
[06:31] <adityag> sauvin: the default folders i get when i log in......../home/Music
[06:31] <fyreme> http://www.pastebin.ca/1058789
[06:31] <sauvin> adityag, I don't believe changes to that folder will be logged.
[06:31] <Jester45> klenz87: you can add the the 3 other drives into a software raid for extra speed (if they are the same speed and storage)
[06:31] <unop> adityag, what exactly happened tho? and did you check /var/log/auth.log -- maybe you did inadvertently change permissions yourself
[06:31] <PradeepDebata> Hi
[06:32] <PradeepDebata> Anybody can say ,what is the command for network config
[06:32]  * sauvin looks
[06:32] <Jester45> klenz87: then all 3 will act as 1 larger drive if they arent the same speed or size put them into a LVM, and that will act the same way
[06:32] <adityag> sauvin: its this user's folder and some1 changed its permission only...hows that possible ?
[06:32] <tony810> j41n, try a diff image from background setting?
[06:32] <Jester45> PradeepDebata: ifconfig
[06:32] <gnax> ifconfig?
[06:32] <bogui> if I'm trying to use aircrack, madwifi drivers, kismet etc. should i remove nm-applet
[06:32] <pazia10> kjo
[06:32] <sauvin> adityag, I normally use chmod
[06:33] <Jester45> gnax: it allows you to config your interfaces
[06:33] <sauvin> fyreme, do you have non-free enabled?
[06:33] <fyreme> ?
[06:33] <klenz87> jestert45: im pretty sure they are not the same speed nor are they the same size two 40gig one 80gig and two 20gig, one of which holds the os
[06:33] <gnax> yeah i know was responding to pradeep
[06:33] <sauvin> Can somebody have the bot refer fyreme to a set of directions to follow for enabling non-free?
[06:33] <j41n> tony810: tried. i can see the wallpaper on startup... just before panel and icons comes. after that, no wallpaper.
[06:34] <klenz87> jester45: ok how do i go about making a software raid??
[06:34] <unop> sauvin, non-free what tho?
[06:34] <PradeepDebata> Jester45: that is for looking at ip and mask
[06:34] <sauvin> unop: w32codecs.
[06:34] <fooks> Jester45: to no effect!
[06:34] <adityag> sauvin: unop:: i used chown now to revoke the permission
[06:34] <unop> !w32codecs | fyreme
[06:34] <lainy> hello, do i use primary or logical partition for the swap partition?
[06:34] <PradeepDebata> Jester45: like in rhel we hav netconfig and sysconfig
[06:34] <Jester45> fooks: could you pastebin the error then
[06:35] <adityag> sauvin: unop: now anyway i can find out changed the permission for that folder ?
[06:35] <unop> adityag, have you checked your own bash history file to see if you changed permissions by mistake?
[06:35] <Jester45> lainy: you can use either or neither :) you can use a swapfile if you want
[06:35] <dstrbdfrk1> what is a repository?
[06:35] <Ntemis>  /msg NickServ identify fedora
[06:35] <lainy> Jester45: what is the most common option?
[06:36] <dstrbdfrk1> !repository
[06:36] <Ntemis> hello
[06:36] <sauvin> dstrbdfrk1, a place where collections of things are stored, usually for distribution.
[06:36] <unop> adityag, one other possibility is that the filesystem that your /home directory resides on is corrupted - which can have strange effects on permissions and ownership
[06:36] <Jester45> lol Ntemis you had a space infront of your /
[06:36] <lainy> i read that "swap should be a logical partition" is that correct?
[06:36] <Ntemis> i cannot make a voice call on pidgin over yahoo messenger
[06:36] <adityag> unop: i have never played around with the folder Music ever.......
[06:36] <Jester45> Ntemis: we all saw your password
[06:36] <Ntemis> is it possible?
[06:36] <tony810> j41n, might try changing themes
[06:36] <Ntemis> so?
[06:36] <Ntemis> am an old user dude
[06:36] <Ntemis> before ubuntu
[06:37] <Jester45> Ntemis: so what... me 2
[06:37] <fyreme> w32codecs command not found
[06:37] <Ntemis> that time that distro was the shining one
[06:37] <Ntemis> so i used that name for my pass
[06:37] <Jester45> fyreme: you install w32codecs and mplayer will use it you dont have to run the command
[06:37] <unop> adityag, strange things happen sometimes, and you might not have intentionally gone out of your way to cause things, they can happen by mistake or inadvertently
[06:37] <lainy> wait, i can install ubuntu (root / mount point) in an extended/ logical partition??
[06:37] <sauvin> In fact, w32codecs is NOT a command.
[06:38] <Ntemis> so is it able to use voice chat for yahoo messenger  on pidgin
[06:38] <nickrud> lainy any,either
[06:38] <unop> lainy, yes
[06:38] <lainy> thanks
[06:38] <adityag> unop: possibility of virus attack ?
[06:38] <sauvin> lainy as far as I'm aware, if it's a partition, you can install linux init.
[06:38] <lainy> ok
[06:38] <unop> lainy, and swap is not restricted to a logical/extended partition either
[06:38] <lainy> unop: great, thanks
[06:38] <mkquist> Ntemis: i think peeps are trying to tell u that someon could mess with ur irc nick...
[06:39] <mkquist> *someone
[06:39] <adityag> i installed postfix, how do i enable it ?
[06:39] <unop> adityag, hmm, the chances of that are very very slim, i would say it is almost unlikely, though i wouldn't rule it out absolutely
[06:39] <Zigtown_> what are like the best programs for ubuntu?
[06:39] <sauvin> Zigtown_, you're the only one who can answer that question.
[06:39] <sauvin> Zigtown_, try them and see!
[06:39] <unop> Zigtown_, that sounds like a poll and should be taken to #ubuntu-offtopic
[06:40] <Zigtown_> makes sens
[06:40] <nickrud> Zigtown_ the help menu item has a description of what some thought were 'best' and added to the default ubuntu install
[06:40] <topsakatanner> HARDY has FIREFOX BETA :'( (is there an easy update to the FINAL RELEASE :-D of 3.0 ?) thank you unop and ubottu
[06:40] <j41n> my desktop is not showing the wallpaper (hardy). nothing happens when i set wallpaper using gnome-appearance-properties. gnome-appearance-properties is not showing any error messages when i tried running it from terminal. I can change the desktop background color. but image is not shown
[06:40] <nickrud> Zigtown_ however, there are a few thousand other things available
[06:41] <nickrud> !hardysources > topsakatanner (make sure you enable hardy-updates)
[06:41] <`ntemis> hey stop that!
[06:41] <justinAlf> j4ln, was the original picture deleated?
[06:41] <Zigtown_> help menu?
[06:41] <unop> !firefox3
[06:41] <`ntemis> cant someone do something
[06:41] <mebaran151> while booting the install cd my computer seems to hang: there is no error message but it never gets past setting up the harddisks
[06:41] <nickrud> !ff3
[06:41] <j41n> justinAlf: no... i tried with different images
[06:41] <nickrud> hm, gonna go fix that
[06:41] <unop> topsakatanner, if you want to official firefox3 release, it looks like you will have to download the tarball off of mozilla.org
[06:42] <mebaran151> any ideas how to fix this
[06:42] <nickrud> unop no, that factoid is wrong, see the ff3 I just did
[06:42] <mebaran151> simple useful boot prompts?
[06:42] <adityag> i installed postfix, how do i enable it ?
[06:42] <unop> nickrud, ahh, that ought to be corrected then
[06:42] <nickrud> unop but it's in hardy-updates, he has to enable that reopo
[06:42] <mebaran151> it's a new computer with an intel quad core ich9
[06:42] <nickrud> unop read the next line I wrote ;)
[06:42] <unop> nickrud, roger
[06:42] <Onebeer> adityag: you mean start the service?
[06:43] <topsakatanner> thank you unop I will visit mozilla.org
[06:43] <unop> topsakatanner, no, don't do that, see what nickrus just said
[06:43] <Zigtown_> is linux virus free?
[06:43] <unop> topsakatanner, s/nickrus/nickrud/
[06:43] <adityag> Onebeer: i have just installed it...do i have to configure it in anyways ?
[06:44] <unop> !virus | Zigtown_
[06:44] <Onebeer> adityag: I would suspect so
[06:44] <unop> adityag, sure, postfix must be configured for your domain
[06:44]  * Onebeer yawns
[06:44] <nickrud> topsakatanner do what the private message from ubottu said, then do sudo apt-get upgrade , you'll probably see a _lot_ of new packages
[06:44] <abuyazan> hello
[06:45] <abuyazan> is there an alternative editor to notepad++ on ubuntu
[06:45] <topsakatanner> thanks nickrud
[06:45] <sauvin> abuyazan, bazillions. What would you want in an editor?
[06:45] <topsakatanner> thanks unop
[06:45] <unop> abuyazan, gedit, vim, emacs, and one million others
[06:46] <abuyazan> no i need all functions in notepad++,
[06:46] <fyreme> you guys rock!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1
[06:46] <Onebeer> I like joe
[06:46] <adityag> Onebeer: unop: can u help me in configuring it??? i just want to use it for sending emails using php mail function
[06:46] <abuyazan> i know those editors, but i need something else
[06:46] <sauvin> What functions in notepad++ do you need?
[06:46] <dstrbdfrk1> neone in here have medibuntu?
[06:46] <sauvin> fyreme, does this mean you watched your wmv? :D
[06:46] <fyreme> yes
[06:46] <abuyazan> tagging style,
[06:47] <unop> adityag, you don't need postfix just to be able to send mails, all you need is a MTA like exim which is already installed
[06:47] <Onebeer> adityag: I can't keep my eyes open much longer..so I doubt it
[06:47] <fyreme> ill be right back
[06:47] <Jester45> dstrbdfrk1: i have it
[06:47] <dstrbdfrk1> ok let me im ya
[06:47] <PradeepDebata> What is the GuI command for networking
[06:47] <Jester45> abuyazan: have you tried geany
[06:47] <adityag> unop: but i tried using mail function but i dint receive any mails
[06:47] <abuyazan> no, let me take a look on it
[06:48] <adityag> Onebeer: ok,thanks anyways........u can sleep
[06:48] <sauvin> adityag, how certain are you that anybody even sent you any email? :D
[06:48] <unop> adityag, you'll need to troubleshoot the problem then -- have a look in /var/log/mail.log
[06:49] <r_a_f> PradeepDebata:  network-admin
[06:49] <unop> sauvin, i think he means, he sent mail out but didn't recieve it at the other end
[06:49] <b4l7424r> i just installed quake 4 and it behaves in a rabid fashion, going from fullscreen to windowed mode by itself
[06:49] <Jester45> PradeepDebata: its network-admin
[06:49] <Jester45> dang
[06:50] <princeOfCode> b4l7424, u need an exorcism
[06:50] <PradeepDebata> Jester45: thanks
[06:50] <adityag> sauvin: i executed that script which has a mail function
[06:50] <adityag> unop: wait i'll check out
[06:51] <adityag> unop::: Jun 30 04:43:14 aditya postfix/master[5184]: daemon started -- version 2.5.1, configuration /etc/postfix :: Jun 30 04:44:04 aditya postfix/master[5184]: terminating on signal 15
[06:51] <unop> adityag, don't paste in here - also, that's not it, look at some more older messages
[06:52] <b4l7424r> i think it might be a compiz issue
[06:52] <rubydiamond> where is JAVA_HOME in ubuntu
[06:52] <adityag> unop: i pasted it as there were 2 lines,,sorry...there are only 4 lines ...and another of them are the same
[06:54] <unop> adityag, maybe /var/log/mail.{err,log,info}
[06:54] <rambo123> rubydiamond>u can set your JAVA_HOME
[06:54] <GreatestGatsby> I tried installing 8.04 on a newer machine, and for some reason I get a very poor connection to the internet in Ubuntu. On the same PC however, I get a great connection when running Windows using the same card. Why is the connection so weak in Ubuntu? It is preventing me from getting new updates and from browsing as well.
[06:54] <rubydiamond> rambo123, where is my java home directory but
[06:54] <rubydiamond> I have java installed
[06:54] <unop> adityag, if you get nothing in there, try sending a test mail using the mail/sendmail command - see if that gets through
[06:54] <rambo123> rubydiamond>find it in /usr/lib/jvm
[06:55] <Jester45> rambo123: type echo $JAVA_HOME to see what that variable is
[06:55] <Jester45> rambo123: wrong person
[06:55] <adityag> unop: mail/sendmail  ::::::no such file or directory
[06:55] <Jester45> rubydiamond:  type echo $JAVA_HOME to see what it is
[06:56] <unop> adityag, sorry :) i meant either mail or sendmail - didn't realize you would read it literally :)
[06:56] <Jester45> rubydiamond: mine is nothing so i guess the defualt is nothing
[06:56] <rubydiamond> its nothing
[06:56] <rubydiamond> but Jester45 I want to set it
[06:57] <adityag> unop: even i am sorry for such a mistake
[06:57] <unop> adityag, it's not your fault at all, it's mine
[06:57] <adityag> unop: i tried sendmail
[06:57] <Jester45> rubydiamond: then type JAVA_HOME=where/youwant/the/home
[06:57] <adityag> unop: but nothings opening,its waiting for something i guess
[06:58] <aRahim> hi guys
[06:58] <aRahim> i have a problem with xine player
[06:58] <sauvin> Uh oh.
[06:58] <rubydiamond> Jeruvy, its not like that
[06:59] <aRahim> whenever i open a video file with it, it open with Volume all the way down.
[06:59] <aRahim> I have to increase the volume manually all the time
[06:59] <rubydiamond> Jester45, its not like that
[06:59] <Zigtown_> is there like a "system profiler" for ubuntu?
[06:59] <unop> adityag, sendmail requires you use it in this way.    sendmail<EMAIL_ADDRESS># then type your message out, when you have finished place a . on it's own line and hit RETURN
[06:59]  * sauvin reads !/.xine/config
[06:59] <rambo124> Jester45>it actually depends on how u install java
[06:59] <aRahim> i have already deleted .xine folder from my home directory but the problem persists
[07:00] <fyreme> thanks again sauvin and jester45
[07:00] <aRahim> help me
[07:00] <rambo124> Jester45>it is always better to home urself
[07:00] <Jester45> rambo124: he said he wanted to set it and thats how you set it
[07:00] <fyreme> yall have a great night
[07:00] <Jester45> fyreme: np and you 2
[07:01] <adityag> unop: ok wait
[07:01] <rambo124> jester45>oh i got disconnected and missed some messages
[07:02] <sauvin> aRahim, you may want to put that .xine directory back.
[07:02] <adityag> unop: wait i'll try
[07:02] <aRahim> why?
[07:02] <sauvin> aRahim, I found the following in my .xine/config: "audio.volume.mixer_volume:100"
[07:02] <aRahim> sauvin, but i have deleted it
[07:02] <aRahim> sauvin, ok
[07:02] <rubydiamond> Okay ppl
[07:03] <rubydiamond> got it, my java home iexport JAVA_HOME=/usr/lib/jvm/java-6-sun
[07:03] <Jester45> aRahim: into trash or a real delete
[07:03] <rubydiamond> export JAVA_HOME=/usr/lib/jvm/java-6-sun
[07:03] <rubydiamond> hi adityag
[07:03] <rubydiamond> from India?
[07:03] <rubydiamond> Pune?
[07:03] <Jester45> !enter
[07:03] <sauvin> aRahim, xine has the following command line option: --session volume=100
[07:04] <mebaran151> my ubuntu livecd won't boot: it hangs without error during the install process around the time it initializes either my harddisks or my usb devices.  What should I do?
[07:04] <rubydiamond> ppl
[07:04] <aRahim> sauvin, restore volume level at startup
[07:04] <aRahim> # bool, default: 0
[07:04] <aRahim> #audio.volume.remember_volume:0
[07:04] <adityag> unop: i guess it require something more as an input.........its still waiting for something
[07:04] <rubydiamond> source ~/.bashrc does not work in ubuntu... you have to close and start new bash
[07:04] <koshari> mebaran151 try disconnecting them
[07:04] <adityag> rubydiamond: i am from mumbai...
[07:04] <sauvin> aRahim, you can change that, if you like :)
[07:05] <mebaran151> koshari, but dont' I need a keyboard?
[07:05] <aRahim> sauvin, which line?
[07:05] <rubydiamond> adityag, okay fine
[07:05] <mebaran151> and the harddisks are just regular sata
[07:05] <unop> adityag, when you have finished typing the message, place a . on a line of it's own and hit enter or press CTRL+D
[07:05] <SwedeMike> I'm considering creating a kernel of my own to see if it'll solve a driver issue I have, any known issues with taking the latest 2.6.25 and using the .config from ubuntu stock kernel and doing "make oldconfig" and then do the regular create-kernel-package (only done it in debian before)
[07:05] <sauvin> aRahim: the "remember volume" line looks like a boolean. Try changing =0 to =1
[07:05] <aRahim> sauvin, yes
[07:06] <rambo124> i think its better to set JAVA_HOME in /etc/envoironment file for IDE can see it
[07:06] <aRahim> sauvin, should i chabge this line too audio.volume.remember_volume:0
[07:06] <sauvin> aRahim, that's the line I was talking about.
[07:06] <unop> rambo123, but that affects all users, something which isn't recommended in the unix world if you can help it by doing it in your own environment
[07:07] <unop> rambo123, and ~/profile or ~/.bashrc were created for just this purpose
[07:07] <rambo124> unop>all users on one envoironment are recommended to work on same jvm
[07:08] <unop> rambo123, not at all... you can have multiple virtual machines installed, there's no stopping you from doing that
[07:09] <lainy> hello i just tried to connect to a wireless network then the network maanger icon on my panel disappeared. what should i do?
[07:09] <adityag> unop: i entered a . then a enter then Ctrl+D .......
[07:09] <HZ> hello everyone, do you now how to mount a U3 USB stick on ubuntu ?
[07:10] <adityag> unop: it was successful but i dint receive the mail
[07:11] <aRahim> sauvin, Thanks a lot. It works
[07:12] <sauvin> You're very welcome.
[07:12] <aRahim> sauvin, also i chabged this line #audio.volume.mixer_volume:90
[07:13] <sauvin> aRahim, yea, that looks reasonable.
[07:13] <lainy> how do i get my network manager icon back on the panel? it just disappeared
[07:13] <lainy> i logged out and logged back in and it's still not there.
[07:13] <sauvin> aRahim, I never knew any of this; you made me go look. Now I know how to fix a minor annoyance *I* have with Xine :D
[07:13] <unop> adityag, run the mail command, see if you got any "Mail Delivery" errors
[07:15] <adityag> unop: its asking me to install mailx........command not found!
[07:16] <aRahim> sauvin, hehehe, i myself is a newbie with conf files :D
[07:16] <adityag> unop: should i pastebin mail.info ?
[07:16] <unop> adityag, if you feel it has information that could help in troubleshooting, sure
[07:16] <adityag> unop: i received the mail.......successful
[07:17] <pist0l-fish> Hi there. When I change resolutions in ubuntu (using the ubuntu screen resolution tool) it gives me a 20 second confirmation time. Can I change the 20 seconds to a smaller number?
[07:17] <adityag> unop: but i dint receive the text what i wrote in there
[07:18] <sauvin> aRahim, I'm not a n00b with config files, but every major application will have unique requirements for its configs.
[07:18] <|v|4s7e|2> pist0l-fish, can i ask y?
[07:18] <unop> adityag, sounds good, maybe you didn't format the text properly when typing the message - but that's not important, what's important is that sendmail is able to send mail properly
[07:19] <pist0l-fish> |v|4s7e|2: It just would make things easier, I'm trying to fiddle with some stuff at the moment
[07:19] <adityag> unop: right..
[07:19] <unop> adityag, try your php script again -- if it doesn't successfully send mail, you might want to see how to debug the script
[07:19] <dstrbdfrk1> neone in here use medibuntu?
[07:19] <|v|4s7e|2> pist0l-fish, i believe so, gimmie a sec
[07:19] <pist0l-fish> don't want to use randr and i'm changing some stuff in xorg.conf and i don't want to run into to much trouble
[07:20] <adityag> unop: ok ,thanks , brb
[07:20] <unop> adityag, also, you might want to check the spam/junk mail folder on your remote destination - maybe the php script isn't placing the right FROM address or SUBJECT line and some mail daemons consider mails that don't have these to be junk
[07:22] <adityag> unop: ok....how do i set the right FROM field in the sendmail cmd ?
[07:22] <dstrbdfrk1> neone help me with some info on medibuntu??
[07:23] <dstrbdfrk1> !medibuntu
[07:24] <|v|4s7e|2> pist0l-fish: idk, somethin with the gnome-display-properties application
[07:24] <billeniu1> When i try to updated from 7.10 to 8.04 the installer seems to... crash or something... it lags and then the installation window goes white... Is there another way to upgrade?
[07:24] <Zoem> is there a way to make flash work? Its just giving me gray boxes :(
[07:25] <erikja> !motion

[07:35] <unop> adityag, i'm not sure you are using sendmail properly.   run the command.  sendmail user@domain # FROM<EMAIL_ADDRESS><ENTER> SUBJECT: whatever <ENTER> this is the message body
[07:35] <Myrtti> !language | |v|4s7e|2
[07:35] <NoWhereMan> guys I'm a bit puzzled, how do I change my nickname globally in Pidgin?
[07:35] <|v|4s7e|2> it was a joke, jkjk
[07:35] <unop> adityag, the part after # is the thing you have to type into sendmail .. <ENTER> denotes that a newline begins
[07:35] <Myrtti> |v|4s7e|2: "it was a joke" doesn't make it a joke in my eyes
[07:36] <Jester45> NoWhereMan: you can only change it per account
[07:36] <Irreducibilis> Myrtti: What does +r and +z mean?
[07:36] <NoWhereMan> oh o.O
[07:36] <|v|4s7e|2> Myrtti: then my apologies
[07:36] <Jester45> NoWhereMan: to change it in irc just for this time its /nick newnick
[07:36] <Myrtti> |v|4s7e|2: thank you
[07:36] <Zoemu> how can I restart my flash player... its only giving me gray boxes in firefox
[07:36] <NoWhereMan> Jester45: oh, yes I know how to do it per account
[07:37] <unop> Zoemu, restart firefox
[07:37] <NoWhereMan> I thought there were an option to change it everywhere
[07:37] <Myrtti> Irreducibilis: tbh, got no idea
[07:37] <Jester45> nope
[07:37] <NoWhereMan> strange, maybe there is a plugin or it's a feature to request IMO
[07:37] <NoWhereMan> it feels less integrated
[07:37] <Zoemu> unop, doesn't work
[07:37] <NoWhereMan> btw thanks
[07:37] <|v|4s7e|2> how do u stop ubuntu from asking u for an admin pword when u need to do admin stuff
[07:38] <novella> Buenas
[07:38] <Flannel> |v|4s7e|2: You don't want to.  That defeats the purpose of security
[07:38] <novella> UBuntu spain chanel?
[07:38] <unop> |v|4s7e|2, doing that defeats the security barrier sudo imposes - but it is possible to do that by editing the /etc/sudoers file -- see the sudoers manpage

[07:45] <dstrbdfrk1> ok
[07:46] <|v|4s7e|2> i need a little help disabling sudo
[07:47] <fyrestrtr> |v|4s7e|2: remove the user that you want to disable from the 'wheel' group.
[07:47] <baegle> I'm trying to do a netinstall from a USB stick. However, I have run into several problems. I believe that the heart of the problem is that the net installer is confusing the USB stick and the primary hard drive.
[07:48] <|v|4s7e|2> |v|4s7e|2: ??, i just need it so ubuntu soesn't ask me for a pasword when performing administrative tasks
[07:48] <|v|4s7e|2> fyrestrtr: ??, i just need it so ubuntu soesn't ask me for a pasword when performing administrative tasks
[07:48] <baegle> During the step "download installer components" I get the error "apt-mirror-setup failed for unknown reasons". I can't find anything about this on the google. I have a feeling it's trying to download the components to the stick and running out of space
[07:48] <baegle> is there anyway I can confirm this?
[07:48] <TeslaTony> Does the Ubuntu 8.04 LiveCD include enough utilities to do some hardware diagnosis for a possibly dead computer?
[07:48] <fyrestrtr> |v|4s7e|2: oh for that -- you need to edit the sudoers file with visudo
[07:48] <AcidEyE> hi, i've install virtualbox but i can't make bridge networking between host and guest os, host says brctl command not found. someone help me pls..
[07:49] <fyrestrtr> baegle: could just be a net problem.
[07:49] <|v|4s7e|2> fyrestrtr: i got that far but i cant figure out how to save changes with visudo
[07:49] <OddishB> TeslaTony: If your internet access works on the livecd, you can use apt-get and expand it as much as you need (within the constraints of the ram drive).  Otherwise, I don't know.
[07:49] <baegle> fyrestrtr: everything else appears to download fine
[07:49] <fyrestrtr> |v|4s7e|2: esc, then :wq
[07:49] <fyrestrtr> esc = escape key
[07:49] <baegle> fyrestrtr: also, I've run into this problem multiple times over many days. What possible net problem would I be having?
[07:49] <|v|4s7e|2> ok, ill try that, whats :wq?
[07:50] <fyrestrtr> : = command mode w = write q = quit
[07:50] <fyrestrtr> baegle: mirrors could be down, bad sigs, etc.
[07:50] <|v|4s7e|2> ok, thx
[07:50] <Hobbsee> @btlogin
[07:50] <fyrestrtr> baegle: you could just run it from the shell and see what you get.
[07:51] <baegle> fyrestrtr: run what?
[07:51] <fyrestrtr> baegle: apt-mirror-setup
[07:51] <Josdell> Hi everyone, I just want to ask why would remastersys fail at sudo remastersys dist
[07:51] <|v|4s7e|2> fyrestrtr: many thx, it worked
[07:52] <JaysonK> Hi. I am making a php upload script. I want to filter out any harmful extensions. Are there any extensions that can be indeed harmful for linux ?
[07:52] <|v|4s7e|2> JaysonK: .666
[07:52] <baegle> fyrestrtr: apt-mirror-setup doesn't appear to be a valid command
[07:52] <sauvin> "extensions"?
[07:52] <Flannel> JaysonK: extensions don't mean anything in Linux
[07:52] <fyrestrtr> JayDee: extensions are meaningless in linux when you are talking about the shell. A file could have an extension .txt and it could be a rootkit
[07:53] <sauvin> They DO, but only to some applications, and the smarter ones use filemagic when in doubt.
[07:53] <fyrestrtr> JayDee: extensions -- or rather, the act of executing a default action on a particular extension, is a feature of the GUI.
[07:53] <|v|4s7e|2> question, whats a loopback interface
[07:53] <offline> your localhost
[07:54]  * sauvin notes that the ls command uses extensions and filetype to determine how to colourise a listing
[07:54] <offline> your own comp
[07:54] <fyrestrtr> |v|4s7e|2: a network interface that points to the same machine that is hosting it, creating a loop. localhost, <IP_ADDRESS> etc.
[07:54] <unop> |v|4s7e|2, in terms of networking, it's an interface that points back to itself, so if you send something down it, the data returns back to you
[07:54] <|v|4s7e|2> offline: as in <IP_ADDRESS>, localhost, etc.?
[07:54] <|v|4s7e|2> ok cool
[07:54] <offline> |v|4s7e|: yup
[07:55]  * fyrestrtr waits for opensuse to download
[07:55] <JaysonK> My other question then, what mime types are harmful for linux?
[07:55] <sauvin> |v|4s7e|2, yes. It's often used during development to test intermediate programs.
[07:55] <fyrestrtr> JaysonK: none =) Its the permissions.
[07:55] <unop> JaysonK, none, all, depends really
[07:55] <sauvin> JaysonK, what are you thinking of when you say "harmful"?
[07:55] <JaysonK> meaning that can contain malicious code, for example code that 'deletes' something
[07:55]  * sauvin is thinking JaysonK has way too much Windows experience
[07:56] <fyrestrtr> JaysonK: in linux, its all about the permissions on a node, not the file (or directory, or device) that is actually there.
[07:56] <fyrestrtr> JaysonK: code that deletes something -- is useless if you cannot execute it.
[07:56] <Chousuke> fyrestrtr: hm, so hardlinks have all the same permissions? :P
[07:56] <fyrestrtr> JaysonK: the security is in the permissions and sandboxing.
[07:57] <sauvin> JaysonK, what fyrestrtr is saying is related to why apache and suchlike are usually run as normal users; even if they get trashed, they can only trash their own workspaces and (theoretically) can't trash anybody else's, or linux itself.
[07:57] <fyrestrtr> Chousuke: no?
[07:57] <Chousuke> fyrestrtr: well then I probably misunderstood you
[07:57] <JaysonK> ok then thanks, seems that I wont be filtering any extensions/mime types then
[07:58] <fyrestrtr> JaysonK: you should do that anyway.
[07:58] <|v|4s7e|2> how would i stream audio over my local network??
[07:58] <Chousuke> fyrestrtr: you didn't mean "inode" with your "node" then?
[07:58] <JaysonK> well extensions are pretty much useless, maybe filter some mime types, but which ones fyrestrtr
[07:58] <fyrestrtr> JaysonK: chances are wherever you are uploading it to, has the permission of '777' (a very bad idea). So whatever is uploaded there, will be executable if its accessed.
[07:58] <Chousuke> JaysonK: there's no need to filter mime types.
[07:58] <fyrestrtr> Chousuke: no, I meant a node in a tree, as in the directory tree.
[07:58] <Chousuke> right.
[07:59] <fyrestrtr> JaysonK: in other words, if someone uploads a file with the extension .php, and then browses that file (assuming your save location is in the web root), then whatever code is there will execute.
[07:59] <Chousuke> if you accept user uploads you must be *very* careful
[08:00] <unop> JaysonK, what are you filtering? email attachments, file uploads to servers, etc ?
[08:00] <fyrestrtr> JaysonK: so, to prevent that -- fix the permissions on the directory, use a permissions mask, or store the stuff outside your web root so its not accessible from a user agent.
[08:00] <baegle> is there anyway to configure LVM on a specific partition and not on the entire disk?
[08:00] <Chousuke> you should set permissions to 644 at most
[08:00] <|v|4s7e|2> whats icecast?
[08:00] <JaysonK> ok, will modify permission to 644 upon upload
[08:00] <fyrestrtr> |v|4s7e|2: audio streaming server
[08:01] <|v|4s7e|2> |v|4s7e|2: good, im tryin to stream audio over my local network
[08:01] <Chousuke> JaysonK: that means rw-r--r-- btw
[08:01] <JaysonK> php's chmod uses octal
[08:01] <Chousuke> you might also want just 444 or even 400
[08:01] <JaysonK> so 0644 for me
[08:01] <JaysonK> thanks for the help then
[08:01] <Keaton> My HDD is divided into three partitions: one NTFS, one FAT32, and one ext3. How can I get these partitions to mount when the machine starts up or, alternatively, when I log in?

[08:07] <dushy> fyrestrtr: well i cannot search for the files.. is there any way to do so?
[08:07] <Josdell> unop: when I do sudo remastersys dist, do I have to have a disc in the CD Drive or go into root before, or anything else, because when I did it it failed.
[08:08] <unop> Josdell, hmm, i'm not very aware of how remastersys works, you'll have to ask someone else sorry

[08:10] <Josdell> dushy: what is it you are trying to delete? and to search use Nautilus
[08:10] <dushy> i tried to install vmware. It got currupt in the middle of the download. ther are some files created and also got menu in applications. i cannot delete it
[08:10] <gordonjcp> morning all
[08:10] <ROKO__> Hi
[08:11] <fyrestrtr> dushy: use the search feature of your file manager. In nautilus, its the search button on the toolbar.
[08:11] <Kidfork> How can i create partions of my hard drive so i can installed more distros
[08:11] <unop> Josdell, what was the remastersys command you used? and did you get any error messages?
[08:11] <dushy> I have opened nautilus by pressing alt+f2. is that correct?
[08:11] <lucky711x> I have a PcChips M860 motherboard with sata 1.5 Gb/s Raid 0/1  I have a Raid setup as 1...when writing to one hard drive why doesnt it write to both at the same time?  when I reboot it asks my to duplicate my hard drive to insure data consistency why cant i mirror my hard drives on the fly??
[08:11] <unop> Kidfork, use gparted
[08:12] <unop> Kidfork, it works a bit like partition magic on windows
[08:12] <Flannel> dushy: No, you've opened a run dialog.  Nautilus is the file browser
[08:12] <Kidfork> unop: i am but how do i actualy create one
[08:12] <Flannel> dushy: You could then run nautilus with alt-f2, if that's what you're saying
[08:12] <powertool08> how do you manually poll for an ip from the router? I ran ifconfig up but still have no ip
[08:12] <dushy> well now where to find nautilus. if not from alt + f2?
[08:12] <Josdell> unop: I did "sudo remastersys dist" and yes, I got error messages : Creating customdist.iso in /home/remastersys/remastersys
[08:12] <Josdell> ls: cannot access /home/remastersys/remastersys/customdist.iso: No such file or directory
[08:12] <Josdell> [: 1: Illegal number:

[08:12] <Josdell> /home/remastersys/remastersys/customdist.iso is ready to be burned or tested in a virtual machine.

[08:13] <Ademan> hey, is firefox 3 in gutsy-backports?
[08:13] <ethana4> I'm having wireless networking problems
[08:13] <ethana4> nm-editor is seriously borked
[08:13] <Kidfork> unop: how do you actualy do it?
[08:13] <user__> powertool08: dhclient
[08:13] <lucky711x> I have a PcChips M860 motherboard with sata 1.5 Gb/s Raid 0/1  I have a Raid setup as 1...when writing to one hard drive why doesnt it write to both at the same time?  when I reboot it asks my to duplicate my hard drive to insure data consistency why cant i mirror my hard drives on the fly??
[08:13] <ethana4> won't let me get to my networks via gksu, won't save changes otherwise
[08:13] <powertool08> user__: thanks
[08:13] <dushy> Flannel : where to find for nautilus?
[08:14] <unop> Kidfork, not sure on the exact procedure in gparted -- but the idea is you create one by shrinking another so you have some free space to use
[08:14] <lainy> hello im trying to get my wireless to work. i dont see any driver in my wireless interface in lshw -C network. how do i instlal one?
[08:14] <Flannel> dushy: Just go to places and pick any one of them, and that opens nautilus
[08:14] <ethana4> lainy: what chipset?
[08:14] <WhoNeedszzz> Is there a room for Linux Mint?
[08:14] <Ademan> Flannel: (sorry, you just tend to know things lol) do you know if ff3 is in gutsy-backports?
[08:14] <lainy> ethana4 broadcom b43
[08:14] <ethana4> oh crap
[08:14] <gooody> how will i know what OS architecture i am running?
[08:14] <unop> Josdell, and what does this command give you?   pwd
[08:15] <ethana4> lainy: yeah that could be a problem
[08:15] <Flannel> !mint | WhoNeedszzz
[08:15] <dushy> Flannel : the problem is i am not able to locate where the files are .
[08:15] <Flannel> dushy: Which files are you looking for?
[08:15] <ethana4> lainy: got a friend with one of those
[08:15] <dushy> vmware files and the menu in applications.
[08:15] <WhoNeedszzz> !mintsupport
[08:15] <Flannel> Ademan: A beta is, final should be at some point
[08:15] <Josdell> unop: /home/joseph
[08:15] <ethana4> lainy: well I don't know how to help you, someone else here may
[08:15] <Flannel> WhoNeedszzz: sorry, thats the factoid I meant to give you
[08:15] <ethana4> I wish you luck of course
[08:15] <lainy> ethana4: ok thanks
[08:16] <Josdell> lainy: try this in the terminal : sudo modprobe b43
[08:16] <unop> Josdell, looks like you might need to create this directory then.   sudo mkdir -p /home/remastersys/remastersys
[08:16] <lainy> Josdell: what does that do?
[08:16] <Josdell> unop: okay I'll try that.
[08:16] <gooody> how to check the ubunutu architecture that i am running with?
[08:17] <lainy> gooody: lsb_release -a ?
[08:17] <Josdell> lainy: it loads the module needed to work the wireless card, or it may just be that you haven't gotten the wireless card to work with the restricted driver or ndiswrapper
[08:17] <|v|4s7e|2> i need some help settin up a streaming media server
[08:17] <unop> gooody, uname -m
[08:18] <Josdell> unop: so now i do sudo remastersys dist again?
[08:18] <unop> Josdell, yes (and cross your fingers)
[08:18] <lainy> Josdell: i see...
[08:18] <Ademan> egad, sorry, my internet is terrible
[08:18] <Ademan> gooody: uname -m
[08:18] <gooody> unop: is i686 the 64bit architecture?
[08:18] <Ademan> no
[08:18] <dushy> i guess Flannel is busy
[08:19] <lainy> Josdell: what's ndiswrapper?
[08:19] <Josdell> unop: i know, i will be, I've been dieing all night x_x
[08:19] <gooody> Ademan: is this the 32bit?
[08:19] <Flannel> !prefix | dushy
[08:19] <Ademan> can anyone tell me if any of my messages got through?
[08:19] <Ademan> gooody: pretty sure
[08:19] <Flannel> Ademan: A beta is, final should be at some point
[08:19] <Josdell> lainy: something that uses Windows Drivers for your wireless card. I have to go, so try to get help about Ndiswrapper, hope I helped bye.
[08:20] <Josdell> Bye unop.
[08:20] <Ademan> ah, cool it did get through, thanks as always Flannel
[08:20] <nad> how can i install blender on ubuntu
[08:20] <dushy> Flannel: well i am stuck and don't know how to go about.

[08:20] <jmibanez> nad: sudo apt-get install blender ?
[08:21] <nad> because am a newbe
[08:21] <nad> with ubuntu
[08:21] <offline> lainy: have u installed ndiswrapper?
[08:21] <joaopinto> nad, please read help.ubuntu.com
[08:21] <joaopinto> it's a good place to start
[08:21] <dushy> Flannel: i am looking for vmware files. don't know where exactly they are located. I also got to delete system tools from applications. but for that i have to locate the place. which i don't know how to go about it
[08:21] <Flannel> !synaptic | nad
[08:21] <lainy> offline: no how do i do that?
[08:21] <Flannel> dushy: Why do you want to delete system tools?
[08:21] <nad> how to i use sudo
[08:21] <lainy> offline: i installed b43-fwcutter though
[08:22] <unop> gooody, no - you'll need to use lsb_release -a to find out whether you are on a 32bit or 64bit install
[08:22] <unop> nad, sudo command_you_want_to_run
[08:22] <joaopinto> nad, you have too may questions that are available on the help doc. please read it... help.ubuntu.com
[08:22] <Rayyan> !virus
[08:22] <Rayyan> !antivirus
[08:22] <offline> lainy: go to system>administration>synaptic package manager and search for ndiswrapper
[08:22] <dushy> Flannel: its a sub menu in the applications. System tools is created for opening vmware. but mine is currupt and cannot be opened. so i need to delete
[08:22] <xnv> nad: Are you already familiar with the terminal?
[08:23] <fyrestrtr> dushy: just re-install it.
[08:23] <lainy> offline: you're right it's not installed. is it on the install cd? because the computer doesn't have a wired connection
[08:23] <Rayyan> does anyone know if linux AV software can scan my windows drives? have some viruses on windows i need to get rid of
[08:23] <Flannel> dushy: You installed VMWare from a package, correct?  Use synaptic, and remove the package completely (complete removal).  That should fix both of those issues
[08:23] <joaopinto> Rayyan, the linux AV will not remove virus, it will just scan
[08:23] <dushy> fyrestrtr. tried to install 3 times but its useless..
[08:23] <offline> lainy: nope.. u need a repo dvd i think
[08:24] <OddishB> ryantmer: Clamav should be able to.
[08:24] <__ryan__> the preferred torrent program for ubuntu would be ?
[08:24] <Rayyan> ah
[08:24] <OddishB> Rayyan:
[08:24] <fyrestrtr> __ryan__: the one that comes installed with it.
[08:24] <OddishB> Too many ryan nicks in here.  :p
[08:24] <lainy> offline: can i copy the .deb file from another computer?
[08:24] <__ryan__> fyrestrtr,  sounds good :D just checking opinion
[08:24] <joaopinto> I am refering to clamav
[08:24] <Rayyan> call me double y :P
[08:24] <dushy> Flannel: thats what i am telling you. i cannot uninstall from synaptic. coz it didn't install completely. it got currupt in the middle
[08:24] <Rayyan> aegis also only scans?
[08:24] <ottoshmidt> my ubuntu often switches to Visual Effect None: from Extra:
[08:24] <fyrestrtr> dushy: from the terminal, type sudo apt-get remove --purge vmware
[08:25] <joaopinto> dushy, just run the vmware uninstall script.. there is a vmware uninstall script (I am not sure of the path now)
[08:25] <ottoshmidt> is that caused by Video card or CPU
[08:25] <ottoshmidt> ?
[08:25] <offline> lainy: that i do not know.. try to ask someone else about copying .deb files
[08:25] <dushy> fyrestrtr: hold on let me try
[08:25] <Mercuree> ottoshmidt, areyou using any other window managers?
[08:25] <joaopinto> lainy, yes you can copy .deb files. just make sure you also copy any dependencies
[08:25] <Mercuree> or such? ie compiz or emerald
[08:25] <ottoshmidt> Mercuree, like?
[08:25] <lainy> Hello, I am trying to to install ndiswrapper on a computer that does not have an Internet connection. Can I download the ndiswrapper-common .deb file from packages.ubuntu.com, copy that to the computer, and install it that way? Thanks.
[08:25] <dushy> joaopinto: i did that one too. but the menu still remains. so there are some more files to be deleted
[08:25] <lainy> joaopinto: ok thanks
[08:26] <joaopinto> dushy, the uninstall does usually remove the .desktop file (that is the menu entr yfile)
[08:26] <joaopinto> file
[08:26] <dushy> fyrestrtr: it says couldn't find package vmware
[08:26] <ottoshmidt> Mercuree, I use compiz
[08:27] <baegle> how can I manually tell grub to install itself into the mbr for a specific device?
[08:27] <Mercuree> on gnome desktop ottoshmidt? do the compiz effects still keep working/
[08:27] <dushy> joaopinto: well most of the files are deleted by that command. few i could locate in home folder too. but there are fils which is not shown and it is present in menus too. that part i am clueless how to find it
[08:27] <Ryuho> does anyone know how to set up firefox so that irc://irc.xxx works right with pidgin? just pointing to /usr/bin/pidgin doesn't work...
[08:27] <Jester45> lainy: yes you also need any of its dependcies
[08:28] <lainy> Jester45: ok it didn't list any dependencies so i just downloaded one .deb file
[08:28] <ottoshmidt> Mercuree, they do ok, but if a little bit more tasks are on it has troubles
[08:28] <Flannel> !grub | baegle
[08:28] <baegle> I'm trying to do a netinstall from a usb stick, but I think the grub install step is using the USB stick MBR instead of the primary HDD mbr
[08:28] <lainy> Hello, can someone help me setup my wireless connection? I'm using a Broadcom b43 driver and I just installed ndiswrapper. I'm not sure what to do now.
[08:29] <joaopinto> dushy, there must be a vmware.desktop or similar on /usr/share/applications
[08:29] <OddishB> lainy: sudo rmmod bcm43xx && sudo rmmod ndiswrapper && sudo modprobe ndiswrapper
[08:29] <Mercuree> ottoshmidt, what gdx card are you using?
[08:29] <OddishB> lainy: That ought to be all if ndiswrapper is set up properly.
[08:29] <ottoshmidt> Mercuree, geforce fx 5500
[08:29] <Jester45> lainy: there are 100's of guides on that all over the net but... this might help
[08:29] <dushy> joaopinto: let me search and get back to you :)
[08:29] <Jester45> !wireless > lainy
[08:30] <Mercuree> using propreitary nvidia drivers?
[08:30] <ottoshmidt> Mercuree, nvidia not recommended right?
[08:30] <lainy> OddishB, Jester45: thanks i'll give those a try
[08:31] <Mercuree> i use nvidia and have no problems
[08:31] <Mercuree> ottoshmidt, try #compiz
[08:31] <ottoshmidt> ok
[08:32] <ottoshmidt> Mercuree, usually it  gets stuck on websites with a lot of flash stuff
[08:32] <ottoshmidt> ...
[08:32] <Mercuree> hmm..
[08:32] <mhall> hey i'm having some odd xinerama problems here on an nvidia graphics card... it starts the server but the main screen is blank and the secondary goes to sleep... has anybody else witnessed this in hardy?
[08:32] <Mercuree> what are your system specs?
[08:32] <mhall> also, i'm from the debian world, so what is the ubuntu equivalent of "unstable"
[08:32] <Mercuree> ottoshmidt, ^
[08:32] <dushy> joaopinto: i could locate the menus. but i could see the icons alone. the icons reside at applications > system tools > vmware. if i delte vwmare will my system tools get deleted too?
[08:33] <joaopinto> mhall, on ubuntu you only have current and development, the development is intrepid, you can ask about it on #ubuntu+1
[08:33] <Flannel> mhall: There is none.  Ubuntu releases a new release every six months, those package versions that were released, stay with that release (except for bugfixes and security updates).  And then the next versions development starts.
[08:33] <joaopinto> dushy, every menu entry is provided by a .desktop on /usr/share/applications, you just need to find it and remove
[08:34] <ottoshmidt> Mercuree, CPU 2.26,RAM 1 GB, VGA 256 mb
[08:34] <Flannel> mhall: You get new versions of software by upgrading versions.  Of course, there are exceptions, but thats a pretty decent summary.
[08:34] <dushy> joaopinto: i removed the icons. let me see if i can search for system tools too :)
[08:34] <Mercuree> heh thats odd. pretty much the same specs as me and I have no probs. Have you tried different browsers?
[08:34] <dushy> joaopinto: yep its gone automatically :)
[08:35] <dushy> thanks for the help joaopinto .. it means a lot to me. you saved my time too :)
[08:35] <joaopinto> :)
[08:35] <ottoshmidt> Mercuree, opera doen't run at all
[08:35] <tiempo> guys please tellme something .  i have a SIS M760GX video card and Ubuntu 8.04  . mi cuestion is:  can i upgrade the driver? runing compiz ? or visual efects '
[08:35] <tiempo> ?
[08:35] <dushy> thanks joaopinto :)
[08:35] <Mercuree> youre using gnome right? try nautilus.
[08:36] <dushy> thanks Flannel :)
[08:36] <Mercuree> as opposed to firefox
[08:36] <dushy> i can log out happily now :)
[08:36] <ottoshmidt> Mercuree, and desktop freezes often, making me to restart manually
[08:36] <dushy> thanks for the great help. have a good day to all :)
[08:36] <ottoshmidt> Mercuree, sorry for gram errors
[08:37] <Mercuree> hmm ok this is getting beyond my limited experience, i dunno otto, sounds like a system prob
[08:37] <lainy> thanks everyone my wireless connecction works now!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
[08:37] <ComaWhite> http://omploader.org/vZTR6
[08:37] <ComaWhite> oops wrong channel
[08:37] <ottoshmidt> Mercuree, yep I guess that's the case
[08:39] <Rayyan> clam is saying i should be root to update
[08:39] <Rayyan> been 8 months since i was on ubuntu or so
[08:39] <Rayyan> how do i become root again? :P
[08:39] <ComaWhite> sudo su
[08:39] <Mercuree> sudo su Rayyan
[08:39] <Rayyan> ok thanks
[08:39] <ComaWhite> su root
[08:39] <sauvin> You don't, directly, if you want to play by the rules.  What command do you need to run?
[08:39] <Rayyan> im using the gui version though
[08:40] <sauvin> gksudo or kdesudo?
[08:40] <Rayyan> :S
[08:40] <coagent> Hey anyone here know alot about Xen?
[08:42] <user__> coagent: try #xen
[08:42] <kate_mins> Hello , I need help please , if i will transfer my HDD with Ubuntu to new computer , the Ubuntu should work fine  (not the same hardware)?
[08:43] <gordonjcp> kate_mins: should do
[08:43] <gordonjcp> kate_mins: it might get a bit grumpy about the graphics card
[08:44] <gordonjcp> at worst you'll find that 3d acceleration won't work until you set it up by hand
[08:44] <Mercuree> mine swapped over happily. I ended up reinstalling again but that was due to a fault on my behald
[08:44] <Mercuree> behalf*
[08:44] <kate_mins> gordonjcp: ok thanks :) does it possible to duplicate the HDD (the ubuntu system) to new computer via network ? if yes what is the best way of doing that ?
[08:45] <philpinch> #list
[08:46] <kaliMastah> hello
[08:46] <gordonjcp> kate_mins: you'd need to have some sort of OS already on the target machine, or set up netboot
[08:46] <Mercuree> kate_mins, you want to clone original hdd and run it in another pc?
[08:46] <kaliMastah> anyone here from philippines?
[08:47] <baegle> alright, I'm completely lost as to what has happened. Installed Ubuntu from USB stick. Told it to use the hard drive for / and /home and swap/, it looks like Grub was installed on the USB stick and NOT the HDD, I can't boot from the hard drive. However, I can boot from the USB stick and it mounts the HDD in / and /home as specified
[08:47] <baegle> however, it appears varrun, varlock, udev, devshm, and lrm are all on the USB stick
[08:48] <baegle> How in the heck can I begin recovering this so that my HDD is bootable?
[08:48] <kate_mins> Mercuree: i got 4 new computers , and i would like to to duplicate my own computer with ubuntu to the 4 new computers from the network does it possible ?
[08:48] <joaopinto> kate_mins, if you have enough space on one of them you could use partimage
[08:51] <kate_mins> joaopinto: does partimage support network ? so i can make image of the system and duplicate to new computer via network
[08:51] <lainy> sorry if this is the wrong channel but could someone tell me how much space wine uses, and secondly, whether i should install the latest wine from winehq repo or an older version from the ubuntu repo? thanks.
[08:51] <kate_mins> ?
[08:51] <coagent> hey anyone know of a good way to install server edition on a 1U server that has no cdrom?
[08:52] <joaopinto> kate_mins, well, you can setup your initial install as a server, and then you can restore from it, using the network
[08:52] <joaopinto> coagent, net install ?
[08:52] <joaopinto> ops, no cdrom
[08:52] <user__> net install from usb

[08:55] <livingdaylight> Regarding Epiphany: is it possible to set it so that links open in new tabs rather than new window? I can't see a setting for that at all

[09:02] <DJones> !compiling | nad
[09:02] <baegle> so, I was told that Ubuntu has some installation problems with modern motherboards? Something about the  controller on my Asus not allowing it to recognize my IDE opticals. The short of it is, I can't use the CDs (normal or alternate) for anything.
[09:02] <baegle> I was told to go buy a USB optical drive and install from there, but I think that's kind of ridiculous that I should have to go buy new, useless-after-the-fact hardware to do the install, so I tried to install from a USB stick
[09:03] <baegle> unfortunately, the USB stick is being read as HD0 during installation, while the target drive is being read as HD1. So when the grub installation step happens, it automatically installs on HD0 because it's apparently hardcoded. I can't figure out how to change that.
[09:04] <baegle> Now, I can only boot into my HDD installation if my USB stick is in at power-on and my bios is set to boot from it. I'm at my ropes end here.
[09:04] <baegle> can anyone help me resolve this?
[09:05] <Tipolosko> hi :)
[09:05] <buggy1986>  urm sorry to interupt beagle.. i'm new to using ubuntu dapper here..  somehow the file browser doesnt letme create new files or move files.. i have to use the terminal!, but.. is there a way to do it GUI-ly?
[09:05] <DJones> !usb | baegle: Did you follow the suggestions in this guide on how to install from a usb drive?
[09:05] <buggy1986> maybe set permissions such
[09:05] <nikoJ> Hi... I've had a fairly successful install.. however my sound isn't working :/.. It seems to favour my onboard sound instead of the audigy card I have the speakers plugged into
[09:06] <ROKO__> Hi
[09:07] <baegle> DJones: Yes on the first one. And several other ones that I needed to combine advice from in order to get it to work at all. I don't believe that the second link is relevant to me.
