[00:04] <chelz> Diverdude: np
[00:04] <Diverdude> chelz, definitly...system libs are secure
[00:04] <`mOOse`> guys - refresh my memory - totem and exaile aren't working because of missing codecs - where do I get them again?
[00:05] <ZykoticK9> `mOOse`, ubuntu-restricted-extras
[00:05] <KenBW2> `mOOse`: ubuntu-restricted-extras
[00:05] <`mOOse`> thanks - ac3 in there and xvid?
[00:05] <Diverdude> chelz, you work with linux profesionally?
[00:06] <ZykoticK9> `mOOse`, if they're not check out w32codecs or w64codecs from Medibuntu
[00:06] <KenBW2> chelz:
[00:06] <KenBW2> oops
[00:06] <ton> hello everyone ^^ : what's a good program for compiling jpeg into video?
[00:06] <KenBW2> chelz: was that a solution for the Google Earth issue i keep having?
[00:06] <`mOOse`> I just left there with those ZykoticK9 - thanks
[00:06] <`mOOse`> no go
[00:08] <chelz> KenBW2: erm what issues have you been having?
[00:08] <KenBW2> chelz: the one on the google groups page you linked to
[00:09] <iflema> ton like stopmotion videos or cutting jpeg into a movie
[00:09] <KenBW2> chelz: i missed most of the conversation, but saw that
[00:09] <chelz> KenBW2: you get the message "version `GLIBCXX_3.4.9' not found "?
[00:09] <ton> iflema jpeg into a movie
[00:09] <KenBW2> chelz: yea
[00:09] <KenBW2> iirc
[00:10] <iflema> ton not sure sorry..... stopmotion i can help.
[00:10] <R0b0t1> Hello, for some reason when I try to change my keyboard layout, it doesn't actually change...
[00:10] <ton> iflema I have all the frames, torn from an avi and edited individually in gimp, just don't know how to compile ><
[00:10] <chelz> KenBW2: yeah that thread should fix it. in the install dir you do:  sudo mv libstdc++.so.6 libstdc++.so.6.orig && sudo mv libgcc_s.so.1 libgcc_s.so.1.orig
[00:10] <ZykoticK9> ton, mencoder can certainly do it
[00:10] <KenBW2> chelz: the "Best answer" answer?
[00:10] <iflema> ton maybe kino
[00:10] <ton> ZykoticK9 mencoder? I was using openmovie editor, but it's really really lame =_=
[00:11] <chelz> Diverdude: i don't, just a big fan. i might someday. btw officially offtopic talk has to be in #ubuntu-offtopic. i'm there if you have anything offtopic to discuss.
[00:11] <ton> I google
[00:11] <chelz> KenBW2: yep
[00:11] <ZykoticK9> ton mencoder is a cli app but in the man page it has "Encode all *.jpg files in the current directory" as an example
[00:11] <jschall> Why is flash completely unreliable in 64-bit ubuntu? Sometimes it stops working and I have to completely restart firefox. Sometimes it plays video, but none of the buttons work (ie fullscreen, play pause etc.) Anyone else notice this? How can it be corrected?
[00:12] <ton> ZykoticK9 so do you or not actually KNOW it can >:D
[00:12] <KenBW2> jschall: karmic?
[00:12] <iflema> jschall remove all other install versions.. if any, make a folder /home/[username]/.mozilla/plugings and extract the following file into it... then (re)start firefox...
[00:12] <R0b0t1> jschall: Install the Flash 10 beta. It works fine.
[00:12] <Windopain> i am running ubuntu live and there is one HDD in the computer- is it possible to mount it?  i've tried w/ no success so far
[00:12] <iflema> jschall http://download.macromedia.com/pub/labs/flashplayer10/libflashplayer-<IP_ADDRESS>.linux-x86_64.so.tar.gz
[00:12] <jschall> KenBW2: yes, but it happened on previous versions too
[00:12] <ZykoticK9> ton, i've done it before
[00:12] <KenBW2> jschall: the non-clickiness is a known issue
[00:13] <KenBW2> jschall: the issue doesnt happen in Chrome/ium
[00:13] <chelz> KenBW2: the only one under "Best answers "
[00:13] <ZykoticK9> jschall, the button issue can be fixed by following http://paste.ubuntu.com/370590/ -- personally i've switched to Chrome under 64bit and i'm much happier
[00:13] <ton> ZykoticK9, thanks much friend, I'll go for it :D
[00:13] <KenBW2> chelz: yea saw that thanks, now to spend ages downloading GE again
[00:13] <Bthesorceror> test
[00:13] <chelz> !hi | Bthesorceror

[00:14] <dogmatix> I'm running vpnc but I can't access my office's local server do I need to run something else as well?

[00:22] <KenBW2> ZykoticK9: i didnt have nspluginwrapper installed, the file has appeared now
[00:23] <KenBW2> jschall: there are adblocking extensions, but nowhere near adblock
[00:23] <ZykoticK9> KenBW2, interesting - have you not installed ubuntu-restricted-extras?  I'm guessing that's where i got it from.
[00:23] <KenBW2> ZykoticK9: i have
[00:23] <KenBW2> ZykoticK9: perhaps it's because i use Opera rather than FF?
[00:24] <iflema> jschall if that not work you got other issues.... are you using ubuntu? did you uninstall all other versions of flash both open and closed source?
[00:24] <ZykoticK9> KenBW2, perhaps, I haven't used Opera much

[00:38] <Dr_Willis> kcj1993:  ive seen it done. but dont recall what program did it.
[00:38] <fxhp> dusty1 was grub booting windows before?
[00:39] <daftykins> tanderson: sorry i was wrong, it's not on as default but if you can get a network connection in your livecd, sshd would be available to install with one command of course :)
[00:39] <Dusty1> fxhp:i just now installed ubuntu, this is on a friend's machine, he was having problems with his pc so he wanted to try linx
[00:39] <kcj1993> Dr_Willis, Aww
[00:39] <zach_> I can't play dvd's.  Been to the website that tells me what to install. still doesn't work.  Does it have anything to do with an atom setup?
[00:40] <iflema> jschall goodone
[00:40] <Dusty1> fxhp: before his comptuer wouldn't boot his windows partition, but it is odd that grub sees it and tries but won't it makes me think it is a problem with the windows boot.ini or something which i know nothing about, i hate windows lol
[00:40] <`mOOse`> zach_, try VLC?
[00:40] <ZykoticK9> kcj1993, because of how a joystick works you can't actually get to any of the corners if you're trying to use it as a mouse (not very handy)
[00:40] <zach_> tried vlc, doesnt read properly, it skips through vobs until it finds one that it can

[00:41] <promet1>  i just installed a new laptop battery and karmic seems to have trouble recognizing it. the power-manager says 'full', but when AC is unplugged the laptop shuts down  cold from lack of power, any insights?
[00:42] <kcj1993> ZykoticK9, mine is a PS2 stile game pad and it has analogue sticks so I guess it would work like a track point (nipple mouse)
[00:42] <Shazam> dev lists an sde2, but doesn't list the sde device. What would this indicate?
[00:42] <kcj1993> style*
[00:42] <Dusty1> sorry to rush out but my daughter is getting into everything
[00:42] <Dusty1> she is just over  a year old so i gotta go
[00:43] <daftykins> Dusty1: good luck!
[00:43] <zach_> i've tried vlc, movie player, and xgine, none plate dvd's...What should i try
[00:43] <IdleOne> promet1: did you allow the battery to charge? I am not even sure if that needs to be done but it would seem logical to me
[00:43] <iflema> hipe sorry m8 isent the sudo add-apt-repository ppa:pdoes message to jschall
[00:43] <ZykoticK9> kcj1993, i was using a PS2 controller as well but the stick moves in a circle right - and a screen is a square
[00:43] <Dusty1> i wish someone was able to help me
[00:43] <tanderson> daftykins: thanks! That's what I thought(that's how an ubuntu install works)
[00:43] <daftykins> =]
[00:43] <Dusty1> because when i look on the windows partition it is all there and working
[00:43] <Fraxtil> Why is bootchart still running on boot, even though I've uninstalled it?
[00:43] <fxhp> dusty1 did you install with wubi?
[00:43] <daftykins> tanderson: np, that was 32-bit 9.10 karmic livecd btw
[00:43] <Dusty1> no installed via cd fxhp
[00:44] <tanderson> daftykins: it's actually a little daft to not have sshd on a livecd :/
[00:44] <CooPs89> I just compiled pureftp-d but the make install didn't put a startup script in init.d, what to do? (yes I had to compile it)
[00:44] <Fraxtil> I got the message "init: bootchart main process (478) terminated with status 2"
[00:44] <promet1> idleone, yes. i was very careful about allowing it to fully charge before doing any battery only operation
[00:44] <Dusty1> if you want ic an explain the situation better on a private message
[00:44] <g1er> does the new grub still have a user editable boot file?
[00:44] <Dusty1> if you want ic an explain the situation better on a private message it is hard for me to keep up with all the chat in here and my baby lol
[00:44] <daftykins> tanderson: i guess it's too easy a target for pranks - known user and no pass etc
[00:44] <promet1> as i always do with new li-ion batteries
[00:44] <IdleOne> promet1: that was my only guess, sorry can't help more.
[00:44] <fxhp> dusty1 first impression would be that grub is causing the issue
[00:44] <scorch__> Does anyone know if Runes of MAgic runs ok on Virtualbox?
[00:44] <promet1> i also disabled acpi, but n love there either
[00:45] <daftykins> scorch__: VM'ing is not the way to play games if that's what you're planning
[00:45] <scorch__> Does anyone know if Runes of MAgic runs ok on Virtualbox or a moded version of wine that was used for Subspace?
[00:45] <promet1> that's okay idleone, i really appreciate the response nonetheless
[00:45] <cure_2323> could anyone suggest a good music player for ubuntu that i can also install on windows ?
[00:45] <Dusty1> vlc
[00:45] <IdleOne> promet1: stick around and ask from time to time in here, somebody will have an answer.
[00:45] <Dusty1> cure: VLC media player
[00:46] <hipe> iflema: no problem for some reason `which add-apt-repository` turns up empty but i edited my /etc/apt/sources.list manually and it appears to have worked.  (not sure if i installed git-core from the ppa or not but whatevs git is working)
[00:46] <scorch__> daftykins:  ok have u heard of a game called supsapce?
[00:46] <Dr_Willis> cure_2323:  check out SongBird
[00:46] <promet1> thanks idleone , will do ;]
[00:46] <scorch__> is there a way to install different versions of wine?
[00:46] <[BT]Brendan> My CD/DVD drive won't open when I press the button on it.
[00:46] <promet1> i second dusty1's endorsement of VLC
[00:46] <daftykins> scorch__: nah sorry
[00:46] <iflema> hipe sudo add-apt-repository ppa:pdoes works but no gpg infomation is available
[00:46] <cyberjunk502> Hi Dr_willis
[00:46] <Dusty1> i missed what you said x
[00:46] <mats> crap speeds on usb sticks, anyone know a fix
[00:46] <promet1> it is THE media player
[00:47] <promet1> if they could only get the skins to work right
[00:47] <promet1> they would take over the world
[00:47] <Dr_Willis> scorch__:  I was thinking ive seen it done some how. but I forget where i even saw it at.  Ive rarely needed to use an older wine.
[00:47] <scorch__> daftykins:  i had to mod my wine version to play a game called supspace.....   i am wondering if the modded version will run other progrmas
[00:47] <Dusty1> im off guys baby is being bad
 The operating system has mounted the drive, It needs to be unmounted before the button will work
[00:47] <Shazam> dmesg reads like its detecting my drive, it shows up under lshw, but it doesn't show up under /dev. How would I find out why its not showing up in /dev?
[00:47] <hipe> iflema: i'm saying i don't 'have' add-apt-repository  (tried `locate` and `which`)
[00:47] <fxhp> right click on the disk on the desktop and click unmount
[00:48] <cordelia> http://pastebin.com/d4ccd3ca2 hw do I get hd1 to boot first before hd0?
[00:48] <promet1> scorch you can customize wine configs on a program by program basis
[00:48] <sonN> do both linux and windows use the same protocols and ports?
[00:48] <promet1> in the 'wine config' interface
[00:48] <hipe> iflema: but i'm not blocked, i'll worry about that one later ;)
[00:48] <cure_2323> Dr_Willis: thanks
[00:48] <promet1> sonN in most cases, yes
[00:49] <scorch__> promet k but the mod i think screw shit up for other prgrams
[00:49] <cyberjunk502> can anyone show me the difference between a NAT Proxy and ip masquerading
[00:49] <sonN> promet1 so the whole network thing is meant to be as much OS independent as possible, corect?
[00:49] <promet1> sonN, generally speaking, yes

[00:50] <Izinucs> I need a Java 1.6.0_11 - 1.6.1_15 runtime environment to work with a web based program I use for work.. I see tons of Java in the repos.. but can anyone tell me if it's available?
[00:51] <iWolf> Try the ubuntu software center
[00:52] <Izinucs> iWolf: just said that I see tons of java in the repos.... that means I"ve actually looked in synaptic which lists more than the software center.
[00:52] <cllaudyu> hello, how can i install ubuntu on virtual box?
[00:52] <sonN> what is the problem of rapidshare from networks perspective?
[00:52] <ZykoticK9> cllaudyu, of course
[00:52] <jolaren> I cant find my external hdd formatted as ntfs in Mythbuntu (i.e clone of ubuntu) dmesg and lsusb gives no message about it
[00:53] <cllaudyu> ZykoticK9 k!
[00:53] <cyberjunk502> can anyone show me the difference between a NAT Proxy and ip masquerading or tell me where to find the answer
[00:53] <cyberjunk502> please
[00:53] <jolaren> I dont know what to do
[00:53] <fireball> Anyone know how to get my Window box's/handles back for maximised apps in netbook edition?

[00:54] <cordelia> need help with grub http://pastebin.com/d4ccd3ca2 need to get hd1 to boot first eor even without hd0?
[00:54] <ZykoticK9> cyberjunk502, perhaps a good question for #networking
[00:54] <Izinucs> promet1: the problem I"m finding is the version is below 1.6.0_11 ... It's more like 1.6.0_02
[00:55] <subspider> i have these error running americans army can someone help me ./armyops-bin: error while loading shared libraries: libstdc++.so.5: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

[00:56] <Shazam> ok, now the drive is throwing Buffer I/O Errors. is this somehow *not* a dead hard drive
[00:56] <ZykoticK9> subspider, Install libstdc++5_3.3.6-17ubuntu1_amd64.deb get it from (probably NOT a good idea to install, but gets this game working):
[00:56] <ZykoticK9> http://packages.ubuntu.com/jaunty/amd64/libstdc++5/download
[00:56] <subspider> yes i think so
[00:56] <erUSUL> !ask | os2mac
[00:56] <chelz> subspider: are you on 32 or 64 bit?
[00:56] <subspider> i already do that ZykoticK9
[00:56] <iflema> cordelia working off your first post... reinstall grub will get you into kubuntu or super grub disk.... and when new hdd arrives install ubuntu and itll pick'em both up
[00:56] <subspider> chelz, 64 bits
[00:57] <CooPs89> I just compiled pureftp-d but the make install didn't put a startup script in init.d, what to do? (yes I had to compile it)
[00:57] <os2mac> erUSUL: yeah I know... just didn't want to waste your time with something that's not strictly an Ubuntu issue unless someone felt they had the free time.
[00:57] <subspider> chelz my compiz is off
[00:57] <erUSUL> os2mac: you can go to #bash
[00:57] <ZykoticK9> chelz, good catch!  forgot about the 32-64 thing
[00:57] <CooPs89> I have no idea if make install are supposed to do that, but I still need a startup script
[00:58] <subspider> i allready Installed what ZykoticK9 sayed but nothing
[00:58] <chelz> subspider: ldconfig -p |grep libstdc++
[00:58] <chelz> subspider: pastebin that please
[00:58] <sean_> I need some help with samba. how can i access folders on another computer on my network. both are ubuntu machines. what command is used in terminal?
[00:58] <subspider> what is that chelz
[00:59] <Xial> I have a question that is perhaps stupidly long-winded and likely requires a large level of detail. The short is: I'm wanting to install to hardware that cannot boot from USB, and the optical drive is tricky. The full question is a plain text file here, so as to not flood: http://put.thatin.us/winterm-install
[00:59] <chelz> subspider: it says what libraries you have, it will give info about how to fix your issue
[00:59] <subspider> libstdc++.so.6 (libc6,x86-64) => /usr/lib/libstdc++.so.6
[00:59] <subspider> 	libstdc++.so.6 (libc6) => /usr/lib32/libstdc++.so.6
[00:59] <subspider> 	libstdc++.so.5 (libc6,x86-64) => /usr/lib/libstdc++.so.5
[01:00] <chelz> subspider: please pastebin next time
[01:00] <cordelia> iflema  I am afraid its beyond my knowledge to do that
[01:00] <subspider> what is pastebin sorry
[01:00] <chelz> !pastebin | subspider
[01:02] <iflema> cordelia if you first post is correct.... booting a live cd and reinstall grub in kubuntu will get you in.. or download super grub disk iso and use that to get in.... when ubuntu gets install on new drive it will redo grub for itself and kubutu
[01:02] <subspider> any idea chelz???
[01:02] <chelz> subspider: do    sudo bash -c "cp /etc/ld.so.conf.d/libc.conf /etc/ld.so.conf.d/libc.conf.1 && echo "/usr/lib" >> /etc/ld.so.conf.d/libc.conf && ldconfig"
[01:03] <promet1> i just installed a new laptop battery and karmic seems to have trouble recognizing it. the power-manager says 'full', but when AC is unplugged the laptop shuts down  cold from lack of power, any insights?
[01:03] <subspider> chelz, thats more thatn one comand right??
[01:03] <iflema> cordelia https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Grub2#Reinstalling%20GRUB%202
[01:03] <chelz> subspider: no, all on one line
[01:03] <subspider> nothing happends
[01:04] <Xial> promet1, I'd dare suggest eliminating the operating system from the equation: If you enter the BIOS, and unplug that adapter, does the unit turn off there?
[01:04] <subspider> should i try to run now
[01:04] <subspider> ??
[01:04] <chelz> subspider: yes
[01:04] <promet1> ooooooh xial, that is a great idea!
[01:05] <cordelia> iflema:  so I put the live cd and there will be an option?
[01:05] <promet1> genius!
[01:05] <lostinspace_46> Why would a repo that is in my sources.list file not show up under the origins tab in synaptic?
[01:05] <iflema> cordelia super grub disk? its automagic....
[01:06] <iflema> cordelia https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Grub2#Reinstalling%20GRUB%202
[01:06] <Xial> promet1, glad to help with that. Some BIOSes also will report battery health and status (Dells tend to have this since the ten year old Latitude CPx, for example) as well, which might provide some insight.
[01:06] <chelz> subspider: did it work?
[01:06] <subspider> http://paste.ubuntu.com/370614/
[01:06] <promet1> xial, it does continue to run in the bios without AC power.
[01:06] <subspider> no
[01:06] <iflema> cordelia ive given you two options....
[01:07] <subspider> chelz,
[01:07] <jkh> my wireless works but my ethernet doesnt. could anybody help me?
[01:07] <oro> hi, i'am looking for a how to, to install ldap for thunderbird address book integration
[01:07] <promet1> man that's an excellent and very helpful deduction, thanks!
[01:07] <oro> ?
[01:07] <promet1> xial, tres elegant
[01:07] <chelz> subspider: was that sudo bash -c all on one line in your terminal?
[01:07] <subspider> yes
[01:08] <jkh> hellohellohellohellohello
[01:08] <promet1> hi
[01:08] <xangua> !hi | jkh
[01:08] <`mOOse`> now if only Dell's bios would read the battery accurately we'd be in business
[01:08] <`mOOse`> lol
[01:09] <Xial> Glad to help. :) So, we have a baseline here, promet1: As long as the operating system is not loaded, the unit will run on battery power. But only in the operating system does the unit turn off if unplugged?
[01:09] <rootpower> how to give a wirless driver an interface?
[01:09] <promet1> Xial that appears to be correct at the moment
[01:10] <erUSUL> rootpower: the driver shuld create one when loaded
[01:10] <cordelia> iflema thanks I will try
[01:10] <Shazam> plugged in another drive, dmesg lists "Device offlined - not ready after error recovery". How does one resolve this error, and can I manually "on-line" it?
[01:10] <rootpower> how to give a wirless driver an interface like wlan0
[01:10] <promet1> i am booting now, hopefully this hascaused some sort of ' state change'
[01:10] <chelz> subspider: install this then try and tell me if it worked:  http://nl.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/universe/g/gcc-3.3/libstdc++5_3.3.6-17ubuntu1_i386.deb
[01:10] <jkh> my wireless works but my ethernet doesnt. could anybody please help me?
[01:11] <iflema> cordelia so you have pulled the second dive and need to get into kubuntu right?
[01:11] <Xial> promet1, I'm wondering if ACPI has something to do with the situation. I'm no expert with Ubuntu -- I'm trying to figure out how to install it on quirky hardware tonight, but I have this feeling that this might be the direction needed.
[01:11] <BHoward> @jkh what is the output of ifconfig?
[01:11] <chelz> jkh: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=25557

[01:11] <chelz> jkh: http://www.ubuntugeek.com/ubuntu-network-troubleshooting-tips.html
[01:11] <subspider> ok
[01:11] <rootpower> if there stand eth0 than it could be your driver
[01:12] <promet1> xial, for the moment, booting after a 'bios AC plug removal' seems to leave the system operating, strange...
[01:12] <subspider> chelz, that nor for 64 bits
[01:12] <thedil88> !list
[01:12] <cordelia> yes iflema exactly
[01:12] <rootpower> how to give a wirless driver an interface like wlan0
[01:12] <promet1> it couldn't possibly be that simple...
[01:12] <iflema> cordelia ok... choose one of the two methods and go.......
[01:13] <erUSUL> rootpower: again --> the driver should create one when loaded *automatically*
[01:13] <subspider> chelz, i already install these one libstdc++5_3.3.6-18_amd64.deb
[01:13] <cordelia> ok iflema and thanks
[01:13] <chelz> subspider: install that
[01:13] <chelz> subspider: just try it
[01:13] <Xial> promet1, I have had weirder things resolve themselves like this, so I don't have a good answer. :)
[01:13] <rootpower> the driver is there but doesn't load
[01:13] <sean_> anyone know how to change your computer name in ubuntu?
[01:13] <promet1> Xial, i thought  that too, so i've already added 'acpi=off' to my kernel boot line in grub
[01:13] <subspider> chelz, i can't don't aloow me
[01:13] <promet1> which didn't seem to help
[01:13] <cordelia> bye all
[01:14] <rootpower> i can see what firmware i have but cant access it

[01:14] <subspider> bye cordelia
[01:14] <promet1> bu your suggestion, at the moment at least, is seeming like a game changer...

[01:22] <erUSUL> rootpower: if it is a laptop check that you have the wifi enabled via the keyboard combo ( Fn + 2 usually ) or any other button
[01:23] <chelz> subspider: ?

[01:23] <jolaren> My network card is not functional at startup.. If I want it to work I have to type "dhclient eth0" can I get it working without creating a startup script??

[01:24] <Fauntix> kaffee, zeth, anyone are you there
[01:24] <ZykoticK9> kcj1993, first stop GDM "sudo service gdm stop" then in console run "sudo Xorg -configure" which will create a default xorg in /root - copy rename it to /etc/X11/xorg.conf

[01:28] <lostinspace_46> I have 2 new repos that are listed in my sources.list file.  They are also visible in System/Administration/Software Sources/Other Software.  However, they are not visible under the  Origins tab in Synaptic.  Why would this be?  And how would I download from them if Synaptic doesn't see them?
[01:28] <nixjr> chelz, im new to all this but its seems one thing, depends on another, which in turn depends on another etc.  am i right in assuming that the removal of one thing coause have a massive chain effect?

[01:29] <chelz> Xial: you need a floppy drive or cdrom drive
[01:30] <lostinspace_46> knoppies, no, the repos are not listed under Origins
[01:30] <knoppies> chelz, no you dont, there is a (very complicated and probably not worth it) method to install ubuntu over the network with a networkboot.
[01:31] <knoppies> lostinspace_46, sorry then, Im not sure. I can't help you.
[01:31] <Xial> knoppies, I currently do not have the machine attached to the network.

[01:33] <chelz> mika__: you got cutoff at ". Do you know "
[01:33] <mika__> doesn't show all the processes that are loaded, is there a way of have all of them (with the "ok" or the error)... like this I don't know if everything it's loaded correctly....... the last one is that not all the starting processes tells "ok", just one of many, is there a way to have it for all ?

[01:34] <chelz> Xial: i take it you have a floppy drive?
[01:34] <chelz> rootpower: ifup
[01:34] <mika__> chelz:  Do you know why it doesn't load it? Another problem I noticed is that the init process.... [+ message above]
[01:34] <Xial> No; no connector for it on this board.
[01:34] <rootpower> then it says he cannt connect
[01:34] <knoppies> Xial, I have a method that doesnt require pxe-booting. I use it. You create an apache server on one of your machines, copy the contents of the CD into your apache server, and then use the mini.iso to boot your machine (choosing your apache server as the repo), but you will still need a CD drive/USB boot.
[01:34] <zilkomaa> chelz: I have tried those i remember smplayer worked kinda, hey here is what i did get when i ran the mplayer from shell is there anything you to see? http://paste.ubuntu.com/370625/

[01:35] <chelz> zilkomaa: nope. looks normal except for "MPlayer UNKNOWN-4.4.1". did you install a new mplayer?
[01:36] <chelz> zilkomaa: pastebin the output from a terminal do:   gmplayer file

[01:39] <edbian> ShifftyOne, You can view the partition but actually determining what distro it is is sorta tough
[01:39] <zilkomaa> chelz: after that when i change in prefences video output i get that fatal error thing
[01:39] <lifesengine> can someone please help me, i'm trying to change the permissions for my gimp folder so i can copy brushes

[01:40] <ShifftyOne> Okay.  I will just wipe it then.
[01:40] <mika__> chelz: the strange thing is that if i do a swapon /dev/mapper/cryptswap1 after i login it works and load the swap...it just doesn't work at boot..
[01:40] <ShifftyOne> I was hoping to find out what distro it is and try to restore it.
[01:40] <chelz> zilkomaa: there should be a lot more tahn that
[01:40] <SuperDefenderX> chez, No. MicroWinX is for linux basd distros.
[01:40] <BlackDalek> is there any option to delete image files from a camera in f-spot?

[01:40] <lifesengine> You don't have the right permissions to extract archives in the folder "file:///usr/share/gimp/2.0/brushes"
[01:40] <Izinucs> lifesengine: where is the gimp brush folder? if it is outside of your /home directory then copy using "sudo" .. as in sudo cp <filename> <path to new location>
[01:41] <zilkomaa> chelz: k, sec
[01:41] <chelz> SuperDefenderX: where did you hear of it?
[01:41] <knoppies> ShifftyOne, can't you install GRUB and then get it to boot? or is the distro damaged?
[01:41] <SuperDefenderX> Chez, I was looking for a replacement for Xorg.
[01:41] <lifesengine> Izinucs: i'm terrible with locations, i don't know what command to use
[01:41] <knoppies> lifesengine, try the sudo command, or use: man chmod

[01:42] <edbian> ShifftyOne, Tell your bios to boot that harddrive instead of your windows HDD
[01:42] <edbian> ShifftyOne, Sounds like that HDD is totally fine.
[01:42] <knoppies> ShifftyOne, I was under the impression it was on a seperate partition, if you make it the primary HDD (as edbian suggested) then you can have a look.

[01:43] <lifesengine> how do i change the permissions of the folder
[01:43] <Izinucs> lifesengine: if you are careful ... really careful.. you can gksudo nautilus and use the file manager to do it.. changing the permissions on the directory is more difficult and problemmatic
[01:43] <chelz> SuperDefenderX: xorg is used by pretty much everyone. but sure, i'll take the link
[01:43] <lifesengine> i want full acess
[01:44] <knoppies> melonie, I have a machine that wont go above 640x480 and I had it on 1024x768 the other day, dont know what happened.
[01:44] <lifesengine> i can use the file manager to copy them in?
[01:44] <knoppies> lifesengine, chmod.
[01:44] <ravenxbishop1> where is a good place to find someone that is amaising at porting drivers for ubuntu?
[01:44] <Dr_Willis> lifesengine:  you could use 'sudo mc' and use the mc filemanager to copy things there.
[01:44] <Dr_Willis> lifesengine:  its 'best' to install user stuff in the proper place in the users home dir. Not system wide.
[01:44] <jumbers> edbian: Why are we watching me?

[01:45] <edbian> jumbers, I was talking to somebody about the jumpers on their hdd
[01:45] <Dr_Willis> lifesengine:  for example i put my brushes in -> ~/.gimp-2.6/brushes
[01:45] <knoppies> jumbers, he meant watch the jumpers (on an IDE HDD)
[01:45] <satyag> libzzip-dev is installed
[01:45] <Dr_Willis> lifesengine:  install mc.. or as i just said - put the brushes in the proper directiory in the USERS home
[01:45] <jumbers> edbian: Ah, okay then :P
[01:45] <melonie> I just switched to this one and for the life of me I can't figure out how to fix it
[01:46] <cvd> helo there i use the Janitor o clena and old kernel but the kernel still in the grub menu, where is the menu file so i can revome the old kernel
[01:46] <lifesengine> Dr_Willis: i'm brand new to ubuntu, i have no clue how to use any of this stuff
[01:46] <ravenxbishop1> hi, where is a good place to find someone who is amaising at porting drivers for ubuntu?
[01:46] <knoppies> Dr_Willis, rather than using mc, cant you just do sudo nautilus? (ive done it a few times)
[01:46] <Dr_Willis> knoppies:  ive seen sudo nautilus break things
[01:46] <edbian> knoppies, Yeah, but you gksudo for graphical sudo.
[01:46] <knoppies> edbian, I dont, Ive never had problems, is there something I dont know?
[01:46] <Dr_Willis> lifesengine:  then like ive been saying.. DONT put stuff in the system directorys.. your USER has a .gimp* directory. copy the brushes to the proper place in there.
[01:46] <jumpnmustang> Anyone know why the repositories are telling me signatures are invalid?

[01:47] <knoppies> lifesengine, open up nautilus, <ctrl>-<h>
[01:47] <lifesengine> Dr_Willis: yes, but i have no permission to copy it there
[01:47] <chelz> zilkomaa: are you able to play any videos? or just only not xvid avis?
[01:47] <zilkomaa> chelz: And i installed mplayer from this guide: http://www.ubuntugeek.com/install-mplayer-and-multimedia-codecs-libdvdcss2w32codecsw64codecs-in-ubuntu-9-10-karmic.html

[01:47] <cvd> ?
[01:47] <ravenxbishop1> no one here knows? where i can find people good at porting drivers?
[01:47] <Dr_Willis> lifesengine:  your user should have permission to do things in their own home directory -  Unless you are doing somthing wrong
[01:48] <ShifftyOne> I found what distro it is and will try to restore it.
[01:48] <lifesengine> i must be, this makes no sense...i even went through gksudo nautilus and tried to copy
[01:48] <denis123> After downloading xorg-edgers PPA via Update Manager, is it installed automatically, or do I have to do something else?
[01:48] <Dr_Willis> lifesengine:  /home/USERNAME/.gimp-2.6   is my users gimp dir.
[01:48] <conner_> Also I can't even view Youtube videos
[01:48] <lifesengine> it still says i have no permission
[01:48] <zilkomaa> chelz: I can play with movie player .mkv files
[01:48] <bort13> doesn't seem to be lifesengine's home, he posted /usr/share/gimp
[01:48] <Dr_Willis> lifesengine:  I suggest you never do gnsudo nautilus it can really scres things up.
[01:48] <knoppies> ShifftyOne, nice.
[01:49] <lifesengine> You don't have the right permissions to extract archives in the folder "file:///usr/share/gimp/2.0/brushes"
[01:49] <knoppies> Dr_Willis, what was that other file manager you suggested?
[01:49] <chelz> !module | ravenxbishop1
[01:49] <Dr_Willis> knoppies:  i always use 'mc' as my root file manager
[01:49] <lifesengine> and why is my gimp 2.0?
[01:49] <lifesengine> i have the latest ubuntu
[01:49] <knoppies> Dr_Willis, thank you
[01:49] <chelz> !modules | ravenxbishop1
[01:49] <Dr_Willis> lifesengine:  you are confuseing the SYSTEM gimp directory with the USERS gimp directory
[01:49] <lifesengine> oh, well how do i find the one on my user side?
[01:50] <Dr_Willis> lifesengine:  theres really no need for you to be putting things in the SYSTEM gimp directory
[01:50] <chelz> zilkomaa: there might be an issue with the way mplayer is trying to output video. might try asking the medibuntu people
[01:50] <Dr_Willis> lifesengine:  /home/USERNAME/.gimp-2.6   is my users gimp dir.  (for the 3rd time)
[01:50] <chelz> !medibuntu | zilkomaa
[01:50] <airtonix> lifesengine, why are you trying to extract brushes to the global folder ? just use the one under your home folder
[01:50] <nixjr> what is the "load average" in top, my first assumption was a percentage, however ive seen it go over 1.00 so that cant be correct
[01:50] <Dr_Willis> nixjr:  dual core. :)?
[01:51] <conner_> man I have no idea as to what you guys are even talking about, my problem seems simple lol
[01:51] <lifesengine> my home folder is virtually empty

[01:51] <lifesengine> besides a few programs
[01:51] <Dr_Willis> conner_:  'crawl, walk, run'  then fly....
[01:51] <Dr_Willis> :)
[01:51] <lifesengine> i dont see gimp at all
[01:51] <Dr_Willis> lifesengine:  note the . befor the name? its a hidden dir.
[01:51] <conner_> or crash :)

[01:56] <Guest42232> its working on a windows box right beside me
[01:56] <jolaren> If I don't type "chclient eth0" after boot I don't get internet.. how do I get this to autoboot?
[01:56] <brianfreud> Anyone have any ideas?  I have a white border around the entire desktop; tried changing the background and other various things, nothing seems to get rid of it.  It can be overlaid however, so it's definitely something being drawn, not a monitor issue - the mouse cursor can "block" a part of it when it's over the border.
[01:56] <Dr_Willis> Guest42232:  change the firefox useragent to show its IE perhaps.
[01:56] <Guest42232> I tried it on Fedora too and no lucj
[01:56] <Guest42232> luck
[01:56] <Dr_Willis> Guest42232:  or is it working in FF on windows?
[01:57] <ZykoticK9> Guest42232, i'm in Canada - and tried in Firefox & Chrome they both failed
[01:57] <airtonix> Guest42232,  it is flash...version 10...probably the ultra beta version...what version flash you have on your windows machine ?
[01:57] <Guest42232> Yes on firefox
[01:57] <Guest42232> 10 I believe
[01:57] <CheeseBalls> o_0
[01:58] <SecondInfinity> Does anyone know
[01:58] <CheeseBalls> Know what?
[01:58] <chelz> !hi CheeseBalls
[01:58] <chelz> !hi | CheeseBalls
[01:58] <Dr_Willis> SecondInfinity:  why do you even need/think you need/ to mess with the inode size?
[01:58] <CheeseBalls> Hey.
[01:59] <Guest42232> A stream is a stream, and since were have the same flash versions and are using firefox...why wouldn't it work....strange

[02:00] <Dr_Willis> Guest42232:  i find the way these sites force in commercials often break things.
[02:00] <dooglus> would someone have time to help please?
[02:00] <chelz> Guest42232: linux flash and windows flash are *not* the same
[02:00] <Dr_Willis> Guest42232:  so far  i think no ione in the channel has gotten it working in any linux. (have they?)

[02:01] <SecondInfinity> Dr_Willis: The program I use (the only one I have tried that seems to work reliably) to read ext2 and ext3 partitions in windows requires that the inode size of a partition be 128 or less to be readable. When 8.10 was out the boot cd made the inode size 128 by default
[02:01] <Guest42232> well its cbc its a reputable source
[02:01] <Dr_Willis> SecondInfinity:  what program is that anyway?
[02:01] <Guest42232> I could complain, but they probably wont pay attention
[02:01] <chelz> SecondInfinity: you could use a shared ntfs to share data between linux and windows. or fat32
[02:01] <Dr_Willis> Guest42232:  if you dont complain they defainatly wont
[02:01] <chelz> Guest42232: every bit helps
[02:01] <SecondInfinity> Ext3 IFS. Ext2fs doesnt really work as well as I would like
[02:02] <Guest42232> thats true
[02:02] <FoolishOwl> I think there's a general problem that some video codecs aren't available in Linux, mostly for legal reasons.
[02:02] <Dr_Willis> !ifs
[02:02] <Guest42232> poor linux :(
[02:02] <Dr_Willis> Im not sure how much 'codecs' affect flash...
[02:02] <SecondInfinity> You can buy some codecs from fluendo I think
[02:02] <SecondInfinity> They arent cheap but it is better than nothing
[02:02] <Dr_Willis> so im not sure that any codec stuff will help flash at all
[02:03] <Craig_Dem> The quicker we move to html5 the better.
[02:03] <NotTooSmart> why does my speed in hdparm -tT /dev/sda drop from 66mb sec to around 21 mb/s after system is online for a few days?
[02:04] <IdleOne> !german
[02:04] <Izinucs> Most flash problems arise when you install ubuntu-restricted-extras *and* flashplugin-non free.. *remove the flashplugin-non free* and it should work much better ... <---- Dr_Willis Guest42232
[02:04] <SecondInfinity> I doubt that HTML 5 will really replace flash completely as most functionality that is flashlike requires javascript
[02:04] <trism> Izinucs: ubuntu-restricted-extras installs flashplugin-nonfree
[02:04] <Dr_Willis> Hmm.. ubuntu-restricted-extras just pulls in flashplugin-nonfree i thought.
[02:04] <SecondInfinity> oh, and the whole fuss about whether to use ogg codec or h.264 for video
[02:04] <Guest42232> lol...how do I remove it...I am new to linux
[02:05]  * Dr_Willis votes for ogg.
[02:05] <Craig_Dem> I use h.264
[02:05] <Dr_Willis> Guest42232:  i doubt if it will change anything.
[02:05] <ujkanovic> some one her
[02:05] <Dr_Willis> Guest42232:  flash works at other sites right?
[02:05] <rick_> h.264 is more supported for portable devices
[02:05] <Guest42232> yes
[02:05] <NotTooSmart> why does my speed in hdparm -tT /dev/sda drop from 66mb sec to around 21 mb/s after system is online for a few days?
[02:05] <Craig_Dem> I love free software and stuff, but my iPod dosen't support ogg.
[02:05] <Guest42232> Like youtube works
[02:05] <chelz> !repeat | NotTooSmart
[02:05] <Izinucs> trism: that's really strange.. because it's worked for me that way for the last several years.. I think the restricted extras installs a different version or adobe's version.. not the nonfree version..
[02:05] <Guest42232> Maybe its something got to do with a live stream?
[02:05] <Dr_Willis> Guest42232:  not a flash issue then would be my guess
[02:06] <ujkanovic> how can i scan my runing proceses to find out if i am infected froma virus or a malware
[02:06] <lostinspace_46> I have 2 new repos that are listed in my sources.list file.  They are also visible in System/Administration/Software Sources/Other Software.  However, they are not visible under the  Origins tab in Synaptic.  Why would this be?  And how would I download from them if Synaptic doesn't see them?
[02:06] <Dr_Willis> Guest42232:  unless its got some flash linux vs flash windows duifferances
[02:06] <chelz> ujkanovic: clamav
[02:06] <SecondInfinity> Supposedly h.264 is of higher quality than ogg and if everything was streamed in ogg it would require way too much bandwidth. The iPods should support ogg but they never will because everything on an apple device has to be controlled by apple
[02:06] <trism> Izinucs: no, it installs the exact same version (although it will also accept adobe-flashplugin if you have previously installed that before installing ubuntu-restricted-extras, but you would have had to do it manually)
[02:06] <chelz> !av | ujkanovic
[02:06] <Craig_Dem> YouTube has a html5 trial at http://youtube.com/html5 if you are having problems. Don't think firefox supports it though.
[02:06] <ujkanovic> clamav is a antivirus but its not scaning proceses thats runs on the ubuntu
[02:07] <Dr_Willis> Craig_Dem:   the latest firefox does. or at least it did.. it seems a little flakey.
[02:07] <Guest42232> WOuld another browser make a differece
[02:07] <Guest42232> Actualy I NM I tried that
[02:07] <trism> yeah, the youtube trial won't work until it supports H.264, which doesn't seem likely any time soon because of license issues (if it does work, it is because the video tag has the ability to fall back on flash if you configure it correctly)
[02:08] <SecondInfinity> Firefox has builtin ogg for html5 I believe
[02:08] <Fauntix> I have a question (2)
[02:08] <NotTooSmart> why does my speed in hdparm -tT /dev/sda drop from 66mb sec to around 21 mb/s after system is online for a few days?
[02:08] <ZykoticK9> Guest42232, i tried using a User Agent switch plugin on FF 3.6 (on Lucid), but when I switched to IE 7/8 the Flash wouldn't even come up at all...
[02:09] <Guest42232> OH dear
[02:09] <Guest42232> Its ok... thank you so much gentlemen for your help
[02:09] <rick_> the one problem with FF is that it is a resource hog.  just sitting at a blank page it jumps my cpu useage from about 10% to 25%.
[02:09] <Guest42232> agreed rick
[02:09] <Guest42232> OPera is much better
[02:10] <Guest42232> faster in my opinion
[02:10] <mdg2> hi
[02:10] <chelz> !hi | mdg2
[02:11] <mdg2> why is it so quiet here?
[02:11] <SecondInfinity> Whatever happened to firefox CPU usage? Just not maintaining the code well or something?
[02:11] <rick_> how often do people have to reinstall ubuntu cause it gets curropted like windows?
[02:11] <Dr_Willis> mdg2:  it is?
[02:11] <Fauntix> First question: I cant seem to find any info to get my finepoint drive to work on 9.10
[02:11] <Dr_Willis> rick_:  varey rarely.
[02:11] <Guest42232> I have never have to do it
[02:12] <Dr_Willis> rick_:  the biggest danger to your linux box.. is the admin doing somthing silly. :)
[02:12] <Guest42232> AS long as you dont mess up with the configurations, its a solid OS
[02:12] <Nahsei> Hi! I installed ubuntu 9.10 and then, after doing apt-get upgrade the sound didn't  work... then i thought that it could be a problem of kernel since the upgrade updated some headers and in fact it was... i thought it was ok, but then, after installing virtualbox it stoped working again :s sombody please help
[02:12] <rick_> haha being the admin and learning linux i've installed and uninstalled so many programs and packages i can't remember
[02:12] <chelz> rick_: if you don't mess with any lowlevel system stuff, you shouldn't ever have to reinstall
[02:12] <chelz> !sound | Nahsei
[02:13] <rick_> i lost count on how many times i've used apt-get to get stuff to work
[02:13] <Guest42232> The desktop graphics are a bit better in FEdora
[02:13] <olskolirc> I get get this beep media installed: ./configure --prefix=/usr and then when I 'make' it gives me this error: make: *** No targets specified and no makefile found.  Stop. | how do I install this tar?
[02:13] <airtonix> SecondInfinity, it's a xul engine ontop of a sqlite dbase, what did you expect? chrome like speeds ><
[02:13] <Dr_Willis> 'using apt-get to get stuff to work' - err.. Like installing needed packages?
[02:13] <chelz> rick_: adding from official repos is fine, adding from unofficial or removing stuff can lead to issues. if you do those things, be prepared to reinstall ubuntu
[02:13] <tobi_> I've got a strange problem, my resolution keeps setting itself at 1440xsomething instead of 1680x1050 which is saved in xorg.conf
[02:13] <Fauntix> am i allow to repeat my question
[02:14] <SecondInfinity> I dont really know anything about how it works but it is a shame that it runs as slow as it does
[02:14] <tobi_> it happens while booting
[02:14] <chelz> !x | tobi_
[02:14] <Dr_Willis> olskolirc:  ther may be some PPA's for watever program you are trying to compile.
[02:14] <Will123456> hey guys. i can't get empathy to handle video calls to MSN. why's that? my webcam and mic work fine, but the option is greyed out. even when running sudo empathy
[02:14] <Fauntix> i dont want to seem like I am spamming
[02:14] <subspider> chelz it worked
[02:14] <chelz> subspider: good :)
[02:14] <SecondInfinity> I have privacy issues with using google's chrome, and it doesnt have nearly as many addons as firefox does
[02:14] <Dr_Willis> Fauntix:  i dont een know wht a finepoint drive is.
[02:14] <Will123456> (to clarify: can't get empathy to make video calls to contacts using the MSN network)
[02:14] <SecondInfinity> It probably isnt as open either
[02:14] <rick_> needed packages, following online guides to get all the multimedia working, i'm sure i've invariably messed something up in the process.  oh well i expected it to happen at some point since this is my first time with linux.  die winblows!
[02:14] <chelz> SecondInfinity: i personally use google chromium
[02:14] <Fauntix> Dr_Willis: Its for a tablet laptop ... brb btw
[02:14] <airtonix> SecondInfinity, what kind of addons... have you looked lately ?
[02:15] <subspider> chelz do you want to know what i did to work??
[02:15] <chelz> subspider: sure
[02:15] <olskolirc> what is a PPA Dr_Willis and where can I get it?
[02:15] <Dr_Willis> The AdBlocker tools for FF are 'better at blocking' then the ones  i find for chrome
[02:15] <Dr_Willis> !ppa | olskolirc
[02:15] <Guest42232> Is it possible to watch dvd's and youtibe videos on the most basic linux...like puupy linux
[02:15] <chelz> Will123456: don't run sudo empathy. if something is supported it will be functional
[02:15] <Guest42232> Like th versions that would work in a P1
[02:15] <Dr_Willis> olskolirc:  i always google for 'PROGRAM ubuntu ppa'  and see what turns up
[02:16] <Dr_Willis> Guest42232:  yes it is.
[02:16] <mdg2> Guest42232: P1?
[02:16] <Dr_Willis> Guest42232:  on a Pentium I cpu you  mean?
[02:16] <Guest42232> Yes
[02:16] <SecondInfinity> I have looked but there are still those that I use now that are not available. Like I said though, I have privacy and openness issues with Chrome
[02:16] <Will123456> chelz: i'm not - it was only as a last resort (i managed to get my webcam working in flash for firefox by first enabling it via sudo then reverting back to normal firefox, you see)
[02:16] <Dr_Willis> Guest42232:  good Luck with that.. your cpu will be so overloaded. it will be scary
[02:16] <Will123456> chelz: didn't work anyway :P
[02:16] <mdg2> Guest42232: like 133 Mhz?
[02:16] <Guest42232> lol
[02:16] <chelz> Will123456: the issue has been fixed in the later releases of Empathy that will be included with lucid. (via https://bugs.launchpad.net/empathy/+bug/333675 )
[02:16] <chelz> Will123456: if you want you can hunt down a way to install it in your karmic
[02:16] <Guest42232> I heard there were linux versions that can run on old pc's
[02:17] <subspider> chelz, when installinf the intallation ask you for the folder where libs are stored and i had to chage to usr/lib/
[02:17] <Will123456> chelz: oh wow, excellent, thanks :) that's great news. i think i might do that
[02:17] <Dr_Willis> Guest42232:  theres old.. then theres  OLD....
[02:17] <FoolishOwl> The package management system -- apt-get and so forth -- is really good about maintaining the integrity of packages, i.e., applications and their supporting files.
[02:17] <Guest42232> I think puppy linux was one of the
[02:17] <mdg2> Guest42232: tinycore
[02:17] <rick_> my cell phone has a faster processor then the pentium 1!!!!  talk about legacy equipment!
[02:17] <Dr_Willis> Guest42232:  Puppy on a Pent I will still not let you do everything
[02:17] <chelz> subspider: where was it before you have to change it?
[02:17] <Dr_Willis> Guest42232:  try it and see.
[02:17] <Guest42232> Well which one is the most basic linux with a desktop
[02:17] <subspider> usr/local/lib
[02:18] <mdg2> Guest42232: you have to have a GUI or can you go CLI?
[02:18] <Guest42232> that can work on a old pc
[02:18] <Dr_Willis> Guest42232:  depends on your needs.
[02:18] <chelz> Will123456: https://launchpad.net/~telepathy/+archive/ppa - this might help
[02:18] <Dr_Willis> Guest42232:  to try PuppyLinux or ask in #puppylinux
[02:18] <chelz> subspider: ah ok. good that it's working
[02:18] <Guest42232> Browse the internet, youtube
[02:18] <SecondInfinity> Guest42232: You heard correctly, many linux distributions can run on very old hardware, making what is thought to be useless hardware quite usable. I had a computer with a 333MHz processor and 64mb of RAM and I could use it as a basic web browsing machine
[02:18] <Dr_Willis> Guest42232:  flash on a pent I will proberly be so slow as to be impossible.
[02:18] <subspider> chelz something so stupid
[02:18] <iceroot> Guest42232: youtube will NEVER work on a P1
[02:18] <jumpnmustang> Is there an easier way to fix a gpg error?
[02:18] <mdg2> Guest42232: how much ram you got?
[02:18] <iceroot> Guest42232: because of flash
[02:18] <cort> hello all is there anyone out there willing to help a newbie with a QGIS install
[02:18] <subspider> chelz,  it's working great sound and everthing
[02:18] <Guest42232> I see
[02:19] <chelz> SecondInfinity: the cost of making use of an older machine vs getting a new one should factor in the cost of power usage too
[02:19] <FoolishOwl> IMHO, package management systems and software repositories are the biggest advantage of Debian-based and Red Hat-based Linux distributions over Windows and OS X.
[02:19] <Dr_Willis> Pent I + freedos = serial terminal :)
[02:19] <Guest42232> I am just wondering... I dont have a old box setup yet
[02:19] <Will123456> chelz: thanks, i owe you one./
[02:19] <rick_> what would you use an old pc for a distro that is only CLI for anyways?
[02:19] <SecondInfinity> Am I paranoid to have privacy issues with Google Chrome or do I have valid suspicions?
[02:19] <chelz> FoolishOwl: almost all major *nix distros have some kind of package manager
[02:19] <Guest42232> I have numerous ones though, without software
[02:19] <Dr_Willis> rick_:  'terminal' machine. :)
[02:19] <chelz> Will123456: np. keep promoting linux and ubuntu :)
[02:19] <xangua> SecondInfinity: use chromium then
[02:19] <BlackDalek> how do I import photos with gthumb? Nothing is happening when I click import!
[02:19] <Vladimir_> My laptop has a Blu-ray drive but I've read that currently Ubuntu does not support playing these movies and was wondering whether or not we will see better support for Blu-ray in 10.04 and whether there will be a "push" to be able to view Blu-ray movies. This is, so far, the only obstacle preventing me from using Ubuntu.
[02:19] <subspider> chelz do you know why aa 3 is not for linux
[02:19] <subspider> ??
[02:19] <Dr_Willis> rick_:  ssh in, run htop, just watch the  loads.. :)
[02:19] <Will123456> chelz: i've got my middle aged MUM using it :P
[02:19] <rick_> Dr_Willis you lost me
[02:20] <chelz> subspider: you'll have to ask them
[02:20] <mdg2> rick_: you can browse the net in text browser, gmail, listen to internet radio
[02:20] <airtonix> SecondInfinity, things chrome doesnt have that firefox does (in addon form): 1) save page as png 2) page clipping to local file 3) doesn't allow pages at the uri : file:/// to save to local drive (tiddlywiki)
[02:20] <FoolishOwl> chelz, true. I think the deb and rpm systems are the best, though.
[02:20] <TDJACR> Is there a way to use whole disk encryption with Ubuntu Netbook?
[02:20] <subspider> ok chelz
[02:20] <subspider> thaks
[02:20] <Dr_Willis> rick_:  i have serial terminals - and so forth run serial cable, or use network. and you got a spare console
[02:20] <jumpnmustang> Seems it has bad keys, is there an easy way to just update the keys?
[02:20] <chelz> SecondInfinity: i don't use chrome over chromium because of privacy concerns
[02:20] <cort> help with QGIS and GRASS please
[02:20] <chelz> cort: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuGIS
[02:20] <tobi_> chelz after reseting X resolution changes to 1440x900, as I already said xorg.conf is set to use 1680x1050
[02:20] <Guest42232> Oh yes another thing I was wondering...you know how in UBuntu the screen gets dark when you dont use it
[02:20] <rick_> Dr_Willis basically a dumb gui terminal then?
[02:21] <iceroot> Guest42232: its the screensaver
[02:21] <Dr_Willis> rick_:  err.. NO gui at all.. its a 'serial terminal' :)
[02:21] <Guest42232> Well I disabled it
[02:21] <cort> chelz have not found the answers there
[02:21] <Dr_Willis> rick_:  just like you got on the 'console'
[02:21] <SecondInfinity> chelz: Yes, that is correct, older machines are often very inefficient in terms of power usage. However, Linux installations generally seem to work better on older hardware, probably because they aren't tied to the advancements in the hardware industry (Intel comes out with new gear, Microsoft makes their OS a little less optimized)
[02:21] <SecondInfinity> What is the difference between Chrome and Chromium
[02:21] <chelz> cort: what issues are you experiencing
[02:21] <Dr_Willis> rick_:  there are 'X terminals' also  that can do GUI/X but those are a little rare these days
[02:21] <sebsebseb> SecondInfinity: Chrome is based on Chromeium.  Chromeium is open source,  Chrome is closed source
[02:21] <iceroot> Guest42232: there is an option in the screensaver menu called energy settings, there is set that dispplay is disabed after 30 minutes
[02:21] <chelz> tobi_: do you have intel, nvidia or ati?
[02:22] <tobi_> chelz nvidia gf 7800GT
[02:22] <jumpnmustang> I will wait, have to go for a bit thanks for the help provided so far.:-)
[02:22] <rick_> Dr_Willis okay thanks.  I don't think I'll ever be doing/needing that type of setup ever.
[02:22] <cort> chelz -- unstable version installed and running.  can't get grass pluggin to show up in pluggin  manager
[02:22] <Dr_Willis> rick_:  it can come in handy at times
[02:22] <chelz> tobi_: do you have nvidia-settings installed?
[02:22] <Dr_Willis> rick_:  kernel dev's use it all the time i hear.
[02:22] <tobi_> chelz haven't had this problem with 9.10, it started happening on mint 8, of course I am
[02:22] <Dr_Willis> The good old days of serial cables, nullmodem cables, and zmodem protocals..
[02:23] <SecondInfinity> sebsebseb: I see. Yeah, closed source is not nice. What operating systems is Chromium available for?
[02:23] <rick_> Dr_Willis i'm far from being a kernel Dev.  I'd rather make a stripped down kernel into a car pc or something of the sort.
[02:23] <jmp_> hi to all, do somebody know how to install mysql on ubuntu
[02:23] <chelz> tobi_: have nvidia-settings save a new config
[02:23] <iceroot> jmp_: sudo apt-get install mysql-server
[02:23] <phil-j> hello
[02:23] <Dr_Willis> rick_:  i used serial cables the other day to transfer stuff to/from my AMIGA. :)
[02:24] <Dr_Willis> !mysql | jmp_
[02:24] <phil-j> Can anyone help me test my VNC server?
[02:24] <BlackDalek> gthumb's photo import does not work.. why?
[02:24] <cort> chelz:  follwed these steps to update libraries but not sure I am doing it right:Set your library search path
[02:24] <cort> Note This section was added in an update on 31 Nov 2009
[02:24] <cort> If you want the grass plugin to load in QGIS, you also need to ensure your library path is updated. I do it system wide. First edit /etc/ld.so.conf as root and add this line:
[02:24] <cort> Now do:
[02:24] <cort> sudo ldconfig
[02:24] <FloodBot3> cort: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[02:24] <Dr_Willis> phil-j:  fire up a vnc client and try it out?   thats the ultimate test.
[02:24] <rick_> Dr_Willis well if you found a usb port on an Amiga i'd wonder how you frankenstien'd that into it!!!
[02:24] <chelz> cort: join #qgis-community-team and #qgis
[02:24] <cort> oops sorry
[02:24] <airtonix> rick_, serial cable != usb
[02:25] <Dr_Willis> rick_:  of course Now i realize that the linux kernel can read/write amiga FS' so i can move the amigas hd  to this box copuy stff over. :)
[02:25] <tobi_> chelz I've already did configure it to use 1680x1050, and saved xorg.conf successfully, it just keeps changing to 1440x900 on every boot right before icons on desktop appear
[02:25] <rick_> airtonix yeah real old school serial
[02:25] <BlackDalek> On gthumb, I can see the thumbnails from the camera but it is not importing anything at all.. the import button just depresses when I click it but nothing happens. Why?
[02:25] <airtonix> rick_, although you might find a funky rs232 to usb dongle around somewhere :)
[02:26] <jmp_> iceroot_ thanks, process is running
[02:26] <iceroot> jmp_: great
[02:26] <jmp_> ubottu,  thanks too
[02:26] <Dr_Willis> I have usb-> serial and usb->parallel
[02:26] <chelz> tobi_: well mint is not ubuntu, for the record. you'll have to ask them in #LinuxMint
[02:26] <tobi_> chelz mint channels are dead :P
[02:26] <chelz> !mint | tobi_
[02:26] <Dr_Willis> phil-j:  for vnc over the internet you should be setting up a ssh tunnle.
[02:26] <chelz> !mintsupport > tobi_
[02:27] <tobi_> chelz it might be 185 drivers which are awful at resolutions handling
[02:27] <Dr_Willis> 'mint channels are dead' -> good reason to use actual ubuntu.
[02:27] <mdg2> chelz: what was your question
[02:27] <rick_> airtonix I remember when those dongles first came out!
[02:27] <SecondInfinity> so has anyone heard any nice features that are supposed to be present in the next Ubuntu release, 10.04?
[02:27] <SecondInfinity> I haven't been keeping us
[02:27] <SecondInfinity> up*
[02:27] <BlackDalek> Also when I plug my camera in I get two import photo dialogue boxes put up - neither of which work.
[02:27] <Dr_Willis> SecondInfinity:  they change daily. :) but it should be calming down  soon i imagine
[02:27] <chelz> mdg2: what question?
[02:27] <iceroot> SecondInfinity: LTS is the best feautre  also use #ubuntu+1
[02:28] <berl69> francais
[02:28] <chelz> !fr | berl69
[02:28] <mdg2> chelz: sorry thought you were asking about mint (mint 8 rocks)
[02:28] <SecondInfinity> LTS? Long term support?
[02:28] <chelz> mdg2: nope, just stating that this channel isn't for mint support
[02:28] <chelz> !lts | SecondInfinity
[02:28] <jmp_> berlo69 , qu'est ce qui ne va pas?
[02:28] <phil-j> Dr_Willis: I know VNC sessions should be sent over SSH. I was just wondering if anyone had a spare screen they can throw me to see if I configured my router right
[02:29] <SecondInfinity> So, in actuality, what does LTS mean?
[02:29] <asdfasdfasdfasdf> hello i would like to encrypt a file how can i do this?
[02:29] <iceroot> phil-j: ip, then i will use nmap to check if 5900 is open
[02:29] <SecondInfinity> Dont we already get support for Ubuntu? Isnt that more important for businesses or organizations using Ubuntu?
[02:29] <iceroot> SecondInfinity: see what ubottu told you about lts
[02:29] <phil-j> iceroot: <IP_ADDRESS>
[02:30] <iceroot> SecondInfinity: suport = security fixes
[02:30] <rick_> looks like your screen name is already encrypted, kepp it up
[02:30] <ZykoticK9> SecondInfinity, "support" in this case means updates, etc.
[02:30] <Flannel> SecondInfinity: LTS are supported for 3 years (or 5 on the server) instead of the usual 18 months
[02:30] <chelz> BlackDalek: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Photos
[02:31] <conner_> any reason why I can't view Youtube videos?
[02:31] <iceroot> phil-j: port is filterd
[02:31] <chelz> SecondInfinity: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Photos
[02:31] <chelz> er
[02:31] <chelz> SecondInfinity: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LTS
[02:31] <SecondInfinity> So that means that 10.04 is going to be reliably stable
[02:31] <iceroot> phil-j: so the firewall/router is blocking it
[02:31] <asdfasdfasdfasdf> hmm better questions if i encrypt something with kgpg which are the chances of someone accessing that file?
[02:31] <chelz> SecondInfinity: yes. for people that want a longer upgrade cycle
[02:31] <asdfasdfasdfasdf> say i use a long password with numbers symbols capital letters
[02:31] <Dr_Willis> conner_:  try the google chrome browser (or the latest firefox) and the html5 'testing' feature. :) been playing with that all week
[02:31] <jmp_> iceroot, then how to launch it,
[02:32] <SecondInfinity> I dont mind the 18 month upgrade cycle but I guess for businesses or something it would be great
[02:32] <chelz> !encrypted | asdfasdfasdfasdf
[02:32] <conner_> okay
[02:32] <iceroot> asdfasdfasdfasdf: that its not possible to crack it within a human life-time
[02:32] <Yixter> Anyone got any tips for staying awake ?
[02:32] <iceroot> jmp_: sudo /etc/init.d/mysql start
[02:32] <Dr_Willis> Yixter:  cattle prod.
[02:32] <rick_> Yixter caffiene!
[02:32] <Dougdoug4> Yixter: #ubuntu-offtopic
[02:32] <Flannel> SecondInfinity: instead of upgrading every six months, you get to upgrade every two years.  It's a pretty nice benefit of LTS.
[02:32] <Dougdoug4> ;)
[02:32] <chelz> asdfasdfasdfasdf: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/StrongPasswords
[02:33] <Yixter> Can someone please tell me why i would like to use ubuntu instead of say vista? iv tried it and i dont see the point?
[02:33] <asdfasdfasdfasdf> iceroot, i dont want to use a encrypted folder/partition, i need to backup this file to a dvd
[02:33] <jmp_> iceroot, I want to create data base using mysql queries
[02:33] <airtonix> asdfasdfasdfasdf, gpg can do single files
[02:33] <SecondInfinity> I kind of like having new features every 6 months
[02:34] <chelz> !freedom | Yixter
[02:34] <phil-j> iceroot: My VNC server is on port 5500
[02:34] <Flannel> SecondInfinity: Then you'll likely choose to stick with the regular six month upgrade cycle
[02:34] <chelz> !av > Yixter
[02:34] <asdfasdfasdfasdf> airtonix, good can it be cracked in human life time?
[02:34] <Yixter> good point, but besides that issue, what actaul advantage?
[02:34] <SecondInfinity> GnuPG is good for encrypting files, as well as email using enigmail+thunderbird or evolution
[02:34] <airtonix> asdfasdfasdfasdf, install seahorse and gpg, then you can right click on a file in nautilus and select encrypt
[02:34] <chelz> !truecrypt | asdfasdfasdfasdf
[02:34] <Yixter> i mean, as far as im concerned i got windows free with my computer
[02:35] <SecondInfinity> Why would someone prefer a longer release cycle, the hassle of setting the system up?
[02:35] <Ana1> Hello
[02:35] <airtonix> asdfasdfasdfasdf, depends on the encryption strength you use
[02:35] <BlackDalek> gthumb's import photos function is NOT working. NOTHING is happening when I click import.
[02:35] <chelz> Yixter: vast amounts of open source and free (as in cost) software. also free as in the four freedoms.
[02:35] <chelz> !hi | Ana1
[02:35] <rick_> do you need to reinstall ubuntu with each release cycle or does it just update itself and keep on working?  I;ve only been using karmic for 2 months now.
[02:35] <asdfasdfasdfasdf> chelz, dont want a partition encrypted , i need to move this file to a dvd.
[02:35] <ZykoticK9> Yixter, this is offtop for this channel, perhaps you could ask in #ubuntu-offtopic instead
[02:35] <Ana1> I got a great trouble, I upgraded my ubuntu yesterday and now I cant access my other OS
[02:36] <airtonix> asdfasdfasdfasdf, i think that encyrption ultimately just keeps morons from getting your data and only slows down educated and determined people...
[02:36] <asdfasdfasdfasdf> airtonix, uhm which should i use then?
[02:36] <Flannel> Yixter: #ubuntu-offtopic is a better place to ask that question
[02:36] <airtonix> asdfasdfasdfasdf, http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=495062
[02:36] <Ana1> I got a great trouble, I upgraded my ubuntu yesterday and now I cant access my other OS
[02:36] <rick_> Ana1 most likely that has something to do with the grub bootloader.  search the net for fixing the grub bootloader
[02:36] <chelz> asdfasdfasdfasdf: there's a program called GnuPrivacyGuard
[02:37] <Viking667> I have a question. I've got ubuntu plus the majority of the Ubuntu Studio packages installed. Where do I find the actual sound files used for the sound theme? I'm trying to debug why one sound in particular only ever appears in the left ear.
[02:37] <chelz> Ana1: what error messages do you get?
[02:37] <chelz> !sound | Viking667
[02:37] <Ana1> says nothing
[02:37] <asdfasdfasdfasdf> k thx
[02:37] <Ana1> just never loads the OS
[02:38] <BlackDalek> gthumb is useless.
[02:38] <Nahsei> after i installed virtualbox i cannot hear/listen anything in ubuntu... help?
[02:38] <chelz> rick_: ubuntu will only update when you tell it to
[02:38] <ZykoticK9> Viking667, have a look in /usr/share/sounds/gnome 'might' be in there
[02:38] <Viking667> I'm not having trouble with sound at all... just one sound FILE.
[02:38] <airtonix> asdfasdfasdfasdf, are you using 9.10 ?
[02:38] <Viking667> I'll try that, thank you.
[02:38] <chelz> BlackDalek: you could try filing a bug. there's a channel #gnome on irc.gnome.net
[02:39] <asdfasdfasdfasdf> so i create a 15 character password, any idea where to write it down so i dont forget it?
[02:39] <asdfasdfasdfasdf> airtonix, nope
[02:39] <chelz> asdfasdfasdfasdf: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/StrongPasswords#Write%20Your%20Passwords%20Down
[02:39] <airtonix> asdfasdfasdfasdf, which one then ?
[02:39] <Ana1> so I'll have to look up for the grub right?
[02:40] <SolarisBoy> Nahsei: are you using a virtual audio card in any VMs?
[02:40] <chelz> Ana1: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Grub2#Dual-booting
[02:40] <asdfasdfasdfasdf> airtonix, none using fedora atm
[02:41] <airtonix> asdfasdfasdfasdf, ok, but you are asking about this for ubuntu i assume ?
[02:41] <Ana1> the  HD stiil have the space that used to have for the other  OS, but when I try to search documents, seems to be empty
[02:41] <Nahsei> SolarisBoy: right now i'm not using virtualbox... actually i purged virtualbox and tried to reinstall pulseaudio, but didn't work
[02:41] <asdfasdfasdfasdf> airtonix, for both, still since i dont want to encrypt a folder/partition just a file to burn it to a dvd, it doesnt matter whether i use ubuntu or not :)
[02:42] <ZykoticK9> Nahsei, this might assist you http://www.ghacks.net/2010/02/03/managing-sound-in-ubuntu-9-10/
[02:42] <dooglus> when I boot from livecd, eth0 exists.  when I boot from hdd, it doesn't.  help?
[02:42] <asdfasdfasdfasdf> so its probably the same app you guys tell me here, just instead of typing apt-get install i type yum install ^^
[02:42] <airtonix> asdfasdfasdfasdf, since seahorse and gnupg are installed by default on ubuntu 9.10, you just need to install seahorse-plugins to get the right click > encrypt entry. : http://www.walkingrandomly.com/?p=1842
[02:42] <chelz> !es | Ana1
[02:42] <Nahsei> thanks
[02:42] <airtonix> asdfasdfasdfasdf, also, revelation password manager has a nice strong password generator
[02:43] <nixjr> Is 1 hour to convert an avi file to dvd video format, an unreasonably long length of time?
[02:44] <ZykoticK9> nixjr, or longer
[02:44] <rick_> is there a way to use apt-get check to check all the installed programs to make sure they have all the dependencies or do you have to do it one by one?
[02:44] <airtonix> asdfasdfasdfasdf, after installing seahorse-plugins... i think you need to either kill nautilus and restart it or logout to restart X
[02:44] <kgs> I am interested in scaling my CPU frequencies while running on battery, but my system reports two CPUs (0 and 1). Is it necessary to set the desired frequency on both? I am using the panel applet for this.
[02:45] <Flannel> rick_: If they're installed (and not broken), then they've got all their dependencies. So, 'sudo apt-get upgrade' should tell you if you've got broken packages
[02:45] <chelz> kgs: CPU Frequency Scaling Monitor 2.24.1
[02:45] <rick_> kgs if it's a dual core processor they should scale together automatically
[02:45] <chelz> rick_: apt does that automatically, as long as all the packages you've installed are through apt
[02:45] <kgs> chelz, What do you mean?
[02:46] <IronRoses> giving ubuntu a go
[02:46] <chelz> kgs: you can google that and find out what it is and add it to your ubuntu
[02:46] <chelz> !hi | IronRoses
[02:46] <nixjr> ZykoticK9, just did my first conversion and it took 55mins, do you believe thats satisfactory?
[02:46] <IronRoses> ok, so i goit ATI drivers working (the offical drivers from the ati site instead of the crap that ubuntu gives you) and got crossover and steam running just fine too
[02:46] <chelz> nixjr: i hear handbrake is good
[02:46] <felipecnn> somebody have any dificult to install the dbdesigner in ubuntu 9.04?
[02:46] <kgs> rick_, It is not a dual core. It is an Intel Atom. I think it is a "virtual" dual core. Hyperthreading and whatnot.
[02:46] <airtonix> chelz, if you read what kgs just typed, you will see that he/she is already using that
[02:46] <ZykoticK9> nixjr, converting to DVD MPEG is time consuming - depends on the CPU being used - it's cerainly resonable
[02:47] <IronRoses> my only pro0blem is with crossover and banshee. Crossover steals the sound module from every other applicationl is there a fix for this anywhere?
[02:47] <felipecnn> because mine appears starting DBDesigner... but nothing happens
[02:47] <chelz> airtonix: ah didn't see that
[02:47] <kgs> chelz, I already have the required software packages. They were included by default.
[02:47] <chelz> kgs: yes you have to set it in both
[02:47] <Ana1> is someone going to explain me what happend between the upgrade and my other >OS? and how can I get it back?
[02:47] <VaultDweller> heey
[02:47] <rick_> kgs IIFC the atom processor does have a dual core variant, so yo should be fine with whatever scaling program you find
[02:47] <VaultDweller> I need help
[02:47] <kgs> I see.
[02:47] <airtonix> kgs, this is something im interested in also (i have a hp mini 311-1018tu).... but i dont think the applet is the way to go.
[02:47] <VaultDweller> I need to identify the brand and model of my cousin's ethernet adapter for Windows 7.
[02:47] <VaultDweller> I've booted into Ubuntu
[02:48] <VaultDweller> I'm wondering if there is a way to identify it
[02:48] <VaultDweller> :P
[02:48] <airtonix> VaultDweller, lspci
[02:48] <Dr_Willis> VaultDweller:  check 'lspci' output for starters
[02:48] <kgs> airtonix, what do you see wrong with the applet?
[02:48] <VaultDweller> ok
[02:48] <chelz> IronRoses: could be an alsa/oss issue
[02:48] <VaultDweller> thanks
[02:48] <Dr_Willis> VaultDweller:  then thers proberly some oher tools as well. but yiou mean to say that Win7 dident auto-matically see it?
[02:48] <knoppies> I have ubuntu 9.10 server install with the desktop installed. I have an FX5200 and the nvidia drivers installed. The resolution used to be something above 1024x768 but after I restarted it, it has reset to 640x480 and I can't get it any higher. got any suggestions?
[02:48] <airtonix> kgs, mainly that the applet expects to use /proc/acpi/* and there isn't much there for us to use
[02:48] <rick_> kgs i have ubuntu running on my laptop with an amd dual core processor and setting the speed on one core also automatically sets the speed on the other core at the same time
[02:49] <Nahsei> SolarisBoy: that webpage doesn't help me much...
[02:49] <kgs> rick_, I see. I will have to fiddle with it and see what works for my hardware.
[02:49] <EastDallas> knoppies: try dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg at a command prompt
[02:49] <b0w> Hello !!! how can see what type of sound card i got???
[02:49] <EastDallas> knoppies: then restart x
[02:49] <airtonix> kgs, what machine do you have ?
[02:49] <switch10_> does anyone know how to use mpg123 to stream a music file from my server?  I am trying:  mpg123 dave@xxx.xxx.x.xxx:~/Music/song_i_want_to_play
[02:49] <kgs> airtonix, This is a Dell Mini 10v.
[02:50] <knoppies> eastdallas, thanks. How do I restart X? can I just do a restart?
[02:50] <EastDallas> knoppies: yes
[02:50] <kgs> airtonix, The applet seems to work for me.
[02:50] <rick_> airtonix in other words kgs has a netbook
[02:50] <airtonix> rick_, ...
[02:51] <b0w> Hello !!! how can see what type of sound card i got???
[02:51] <knoppies> EastDallas, I did that in SSH and nothing happened. let me go have a look at the machine.
[02:51] <ZykoticK9> switch10_, i think you'd need to setup NFS/Samba/SSHFS to accomplish what you want
[02:51] <switch10_> bow: lshw
[02:51] <airtonix> b0w, you c an use "lspci" in the terminal
[02:51] <Nahsei> b0w: lspci -v (i think) and you see the part that says audio...
[02:51] <switch10_> ZykoticK9: thanks
[02:52] <DilTheKosher> How do I login on irc?
[02:52] <EastDallas> knoppies: it won't really look like it does anything
[02:52] <ZykoticK9> b0w, "lspci | grep -i audio" might be a little easier to sort through
[02:52] <knoppies> EastDallas, ok, thanks. its restarting now
[02:52] <EastDallas> knoppies: it will just return you to a prompt
[02:52] <sero> hi
[02:52] <knoppies> EastDallas, and then how would I load the desktop?
[02:52] <mdg2> switch10_: I've heard good reviews of mediatomb
[02:53] <b0w> thanks ZykoticK9
[02:53] <b0w> that did the work! :)
[02:53] <switch10_> mdg2: is that some kind of file sharing client?
[02:53] <sero> i installed the radeon driver from the xorg-edgers ppa, but now i want to go back and install xorg 7.4 and then the ati driver
[02:53] <rick_> bow if you want to find out what sound card you have and your used to windows, open up your "ubuntu software center" and search for "device manager".  install that and it's basically the counterpart to windows device manager
[02:53] <kgs> airtonix, can you tell me more about this /proc/acpi business?
[02:53] <mdg2> switch10_: its for mediastreaming
[02:53] <sero> the problem is: i can't install Xorg 7.4 though aptitude
[02:53] <semitones> heyo -- I have a problem with wicd -- sometimes, if I leave the computer idle and come back, wicd can't find any networks, and the only way I could fix it was to restart
[02:54] <switch10_> mdg2: sweet i'll check it out.  Thanks
[02:54] <mdg2> switch10_: your welcome :)
[02:54] <Nahsei> my sound stoped working after installing virtualbox... what should i do? the troubleshooters didn't help me much...
[02:54] <sero> *through
[02:54] <allowoverride> quick question - i just installed a new ubuntu server with 3 nic cards. im trying to figure out why eth0/1/2 will not ping gw. resolv.conf is good, /etc/hosts is good, and /etc/network/interfaces is good, set to dhcp. is this typical of ubuntu-server ? to not allow ping gw?
[02:54] <jordy240> hi would halo 2 for pc work on ubuntu via wine?
[02:55] <airtonix> kgs, last night i tried looking for info about getting temp readouts... and controlling fan speeds... i first tried using lm-sensors but it returned nothing and there seems to be nothing relevant in the /proc/acpi directories
[02:55] <Nahsei> i tried to add myself to audio group, reinstall pulseaudio, modprobe... well, many things... nothing worked
[02:55] <airtonix> kgs, have a look in your /proc/acpi directories, you should see some files there which can give data when you use cat on them.
[02:55] <ZykoticK9> jordy240, not looking good http://appdb.winehq.org/objectManager.php?sClass=version&iId=8117&iTestingId=12382
[02:56] <hexmare> anyone having issues with karmic and nvidia graphics cards having low res?
[02:56] <dandaman1> i have a problem that needs solving....
[02:56] <allowoverride> i took out the 2 other cards, and not familiar to remove their physical configs, and im using the on-board nic at present. 1. i set interfaces to eth1 now, since ifconfig said no card there for eth0, but did when i put ethcable into on-board card. little confused here. someone help me with residual configs or with adding on-board nic?
[02:56] <airtonix> hexmare, nope! :)
[02:56] <jordy240> thank you ZykoticK9
[02:56] <Viking667> meh. I'm out of here. I can't seem to find the recalcitrant soundfile, nor why it's playing only on one speaker.
[02:56] <hexmare> airtronix :> what cards are you using?
[02:57] <allowoverride> right now im have error on cmdline tty0 stating,,,    failed to connect to socket /var/run/dbus/system_bus_socke: no such file or dir
[02:57] <rick_> hexmare good luck, nvidia and linux is a black art sometimes
[02:57] <dandaman1> so i have this netbook with ubuntu netbook remix and a desktop with ubuntu 9.10. I'm laying on my couch with my netbook and i want to play some music on my speakers connected to my desktop(my desktop uses rhythmbox to play music). is there any software that can allow me to do this if im on the same LAN network?
[02:57] <knoppies> EastDallas, it worked. Thanks.
[02:57] <allowoverride> how to reinstall onboard nic drivers? i guess is where i should start
[02:57] <hexmare> Rick > I am finding that out. Laptop fires off no issue. Desktop , with 2 8800 gts, no go
[02:57] <allowoverride> anyone good?
[02:58] <airtonix> !anyone > allowoverride
[02:58] <allowoverride> ubble to connect to system bus
[02:58] <allowoverride> oh ok airtonix thanks
[02:58] <Dr_Willis> dandaman1:  thats doable with pulse audio and the right setup
[02:58] <rick_> hexmare idk about the desktops, usually you have better luck with regular nvidia graphics cards, but laptops (like mine) usually customize the nvidia hardware somewhat and makes supporting them in linux even harder
[02:58] <ZykoticK9> dandaman1, setup an NFS/Samba/SSHFS share on your desktop, then it will be like the files are on the netbook and you can use any player you want
[02:58] <dandaman1> Dr_Willis: what do you mean the right setup?
[02:58] <airtonix> hexmare, on my desktop i have a 8800gts 512mb, and on my netbook i have an Ion 256mb
[02:59] <allowoverride> airtonix: can you help our not
[02:59] <allowoverride> i can provide info easily
[02:59] <ranjan>  my ubuntu media players are not audibles,,,,,,,through my laptop speakers but are audible with my headphones....my laptop speaker is very much fine (i checked it) ..any body suggest me the solution for it............
[02:59] <dandaman1> ZykoticK9: but then i will only be able to play music on my netbook speakers if im just using the files
[02:59] <Dr_Willis> dandaman1:  set up the pulse audio settings properly on each box. You can then tell pc1 to putput sound to pc2
[02:59] <Dr_Willis>  just install
[02:59] <Dr_Willis>  │             | paprefs and pavucontrol, set auth off in paprefs, then use the pulse gnome applet to set default pulse server to the server
[02:59] <hexmare> Airtronix, running 2 8800gt on my desktop , and will only do 640x480
[02:59] <airtonix> allowoverride, since nic drivers are part of the kernel, you can start by trying to use a previous version of the kernel (if you still have them listed in your grub menu)
[03:00] <allowoverride> I have an issue - i can not ping gw. can someone help out?
[03:00] <knoppies> hexmare, have you installed drivers?
[03:00] <allowoverride> airtonix: its a fresh install
[03:00] <allowoverride> no prev ver
[03:00] <airtonix> hexmare, why are you running two? it has no appreciable benefit
[03:00] <ZykoticK9> dandaman1, sorry miss read you - perhaps you could just SSH into your desktop and run an app there - should output to your speakers (if the files are on the desktop)???
[03:00] <sero> hmm help me please
[03:00] <dandaman1> Dr_Willis: yeah but the music files aren't on my netbook, i want to use the playlists on my desktop, maybe a remote connection or something?
[03:00] <mdg2> allowoverride: what's "gw"?
[03:00] <airtonix> mdg2, gateway
[03:00] <dandaman1> ZykoticK9: yeah just came to that conclusion
[03:00] <allowoverride> route add default gw look familar?
[03:00] <Dr_Willis> dandaman1:  you can run a media player on pc1. and have the sound to to the speakers of pc2 wasent that what you asked>
[03:01] <hexmare> airtronix > 3 monitors
[03:01] <nixjr> why are programs in linux, such a small download, compared to their windows equivalents? for example my windows copy of openoffice is several hundred mb, this linux one is <100mb
[03:01] <ranjan>  my ubuntu media players are not audibles,,,,,,,through my laptop speakers but are audible with my headphones....my laptop speaker is very much fine (i checked it) ..any body suggest me the solution for it............
[03:01] <sero> i wanna downgrade Xorg to version 7.4
[03:01] <airtonix> hexmare, ok understand now.
[03:01] <Dr_Willis> dandaman1:  or use some remote share/thing i guess if you want to play the FILES from pc1 on a player on pc2
[03:01] <dandaman1> Dr_Willis: no, the files are on the desktop, sorry bout that didnt specify, i can just do this with a remote connection
[03:01] <Dr_Willis> nixjr:  because of how dependencies are handles
[03:01] <Dr_Willis> dandaman1:  you can play/mount remote machines in a dozen differnt ways to access files
[03:01] <airtonix> hexmare, its not something i've tried... I assume you've exhausted any results google provides ?
[03:01] <ZykoticK9> dandaman1, you might want to check out MPD as well
[03:01] <dandaman1> im gonna hop on unr gimme a sec
[03:02] <dandaman1> on windows right now
[03:02] <knoppies> hexmare, try sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[03:02] <hexmare> Airtronix > Only time I can get 1680x1050 is without nvidia drivers, and even then only 1 monitor
[03:02] <sero> BUT i cant, because apt-get only shows xorg ver 7.6
[03:02] <ranjan> Dr.willis  my ubuntu media players are not audibles,,,,,,,through my laptop speakers but are audible with my headphones....my laptop speaker is very much fine (i checked it) ..any body suggest me the solution for it............
[03:02] <hexmare> trying now
[03:02] <allowoverride> I have an issue - i can not ping gateway ip <IP_ADDRESS>, can someone help out?
[03:02] <azabach> k lo k
[03:02] <Dr_Willis> ranjan:  not really. ive seen peple in jhere befir with 'speakers vs headphone'  problems. My speakers do have a headphone port.. so ive never tried it
[03:02] <intok> there a way to force clear items from the tmp folder without restarting? flash keeps crapping out and leaving vids behind that can't be deleted, trashing and tossing them doesn't free up the space they're taking up
[03:02] <knoppies> hexmare, then restart the PC.
[03:02] <scunizi> hexmare: is that with the drivers supplied by ubuntu or the latest/greatest from nvidia?
[03:03] <rick_> allowoverride are you sure thats the ip address of your router?
[03:03] <airtonix> hexmare, most of the stuff i see involves using xorg.conf which is ignored by ubuntu after 8.10 i think.
[03:03] <allowoverride> so, can someone walk me through troubleshooting?
[03:03] <knoppies> hexmare, Hope it doesnt break something. Good luck. see you back here in a bit.
[03:03] <Dr_Willis> xorg.conf is not ignored. My nvidia settings are in mine
[03:03] <hexmare> oh I am not going anywhere
[03:03] <ranjan> knoppies  my ubuntu media players are not audibles,,,,,,,through my laptop speakers but are audible with my headphones....my laptop speaker is very much fine (i checked it) ..any body suggest me the solution for it............
[03:03] <hexmare> I am on my laptop in here
[03:03] <nixjr> Dr_Willis, excuse my ignorance, im trying to wrap my windows-mind around this, would a good comparison of a dependency be something like vb6 runtime, .net, jre etc?
[03:03] <hexmare> desktop is whats thrashed ;)
[03:03] <hexmare> rebooting that now
[03:03] <Dr_Willis> nixjr:  yes and 100's of other little things
[03:04] <rick_> hexmare do you have nvidia graphics on the laptop?
[03:04] <hexmare> yup, and that works fine
[03:04] <mdg2> ranjan: run "alsamixer" in a terminal and see if everything is turned up
[03:04] <Dr_Willis> nixjr:  see windows apps pop some installer that installs dx9 for example.. that you allready have.. well you just had to redownload it even tho you dident need it for that app
[03:04] <allowoverride> im serious. its a new ubuntu-server install, i installed with all 3 nics. and now im at the point where i will just restart the install and start again. it doesnt make any sense. matter of fact, this happend a while go. i did the route add default gw <IP_ADDRESS> , ipfconfig eth0 up,  and nothing.
[03:04] <hexmare> as for what versions I have tried, I have done 185 and 195.03
[03:04] <semitones> is there a way to see why wicd was misbehaving?
[03:04] <rick_> hexmare which version drivers are you using?
[03:04] <Dr_Willis> nixjr:  windows program/install problems are often becuase the makers dont include all the needed extra windows support stuff.
[03:04] <scunizi> does openJDK conflict with sun-java-6?
[03:04] <dandaman1> ok so if i want to remote connect to my desktop on my netbook and get a graphical interface what should i be doing/using?
[03:05] <knoppies> ranjan, I dont know why you highlighted my name, but no. Im going to assume you have your audio port unplugged when you say the speakers dont work?
[03:05] <allowoverride> the odd thing is, when in installed, it worked fine. static ip'd and all, but when i rebooted, it wouldnt ping yahoo.com or ip gw.
[03:05] <allowoverride> shrugs...
[03:05] <Dr_Willis> dandaman1:  that wasent what you were asking about befor,
[03:05] <rick_> hexmare 195 isn't even supported by ubuntu yet is it
[03:05] <ZykoticK9> allowoverride, perhaps it just a typo but the command is "ifconfig" not "ipconfig" or "ipfconfig"
[03:05] <dandaman1> i know, but itll work
[03:05] <Dr_Willis> dandaman1:  you can use the vncserver feature of gnome to do that
[03:05] <dandaman1> kk
[03:05] <allowoverride> ZykoticK9: i typed ifconfig eth0 up
[03:05] <hexmare> rick let me double check what I have
[03:05] <allowoverride> used tab completion
[03:05] <ranjan> hexmare  my ubuntu media players are not audibles,,,,,,,through my laptop speakers but are audible with my headphones....my laptop speaker is very much fine (i checked it) ..any body suggest me the solution for it............
[03:05] <Dr_Willis> dandaman1:  if you can see the 2nd pc's monitor you could use syngery to just controll it from pc1's mouse and keyboard
[03:06] <jumpnmustang> is there a channel for easy peasy users?
[03:06] <hexmare> rick , yeah 195.36.03 is available
[03:06] <Dr_Willis> brb
[03:06] <rick_> hexmare where at?
[03:06] <dandaman1> dr willis, chair in the way of the monitor :(
[03:06] <jumpnmustang> or does it matter?
[03:06] <hexmare> nvidias site
[03:06] <scunizi> hexmare: make sure if you install that, that you uninstall the nvidia bits supplied by ubuntu
[03:06] <Kujablak> Hi, when I boot I have this screen "Grub loading stage1.5" twice and it's slowy my boot down, how can I avoid this ?
[03:07] <allowoverride> im pretty sure this is not normal issue, and if your good, this should be a challenge. i really dont want to start from scratch and kill another 45 mins
[03:07] <SirStan> Are there any good free dns hosts out there?
[03:07] <knoppies> allowoverride, use ifconfig to see the names of your network interfaces. My eth0 renamed itself to eth0_rename
[03:07] <knoppies> allowoverride, I havnt worked out how to rename it back though, I just used my other network interface eth1
[03:07] <allowoverride> lo is only showing now
[03:07] <scunizi> SirStan: opendns is one of the fastest according to some article I just read a week ago
[03:07] <hexmare> damn all this rebooting you would think I was on windoze
[03:07] <yester64> hi
[03:08] <knoppies> allowoverride, use the -a option
[03:08] <SirStan> scunizi: sorry; hosting.
[03:08] <sero> allowoverride: sudo ifconfig eth0 up
[03:08] <allowoverride> knoppies: thats what i tried initially, still same thing.
[03:08] <rick_> hemare lmao your insulting linux now
[03:08] <knoppies> allowoverride, ifconfig -a?
[03:08] <allowoverride> sero: sb. i did that by the way a few times. ill try again
[03:08] <ZykoticK9> allowoverride, if all you're seeing is "lo" that's loopback - would expain to being able to ping DG
[03:08] <Guest60161> hi i encrypted a file using 4096 and it generated a .asc file, now what i dont understand is that in options theres the export gpg password or even retrieve other persons passwords. so does this mean someone can just open the file retrieving the pass i created?!
[03:08] <allowoverride> ok, -a worked
[03:08] <hexmare> I thought that would amuse you
[03:08] <allowoverride> show eth1
[03:08] <scunizi> hexmare: no reboot necessary .. when you install the nvidia drivers you have to be at cli with gdm shutdown.. install then "sudo service gdm start" to bring graphics back up
[03:08] <Fauntix> Dr_Willis: im back sorry
[03:08] <sero> allowoverride: then it's sudo ifconfig eth1 up
[03:09] <knoppies> allowoverride, are you supposed to be seeing an eth0 as well?
[03:09] <hexmare> scunizi I had done that before I just tried with a reboot still no go
[03:09] <allowoverride> ok that good.
[03:09] <dario> hi everyone
[03:09] <Guest60161> please help me
[03:09] <allowoverride> now, how can i tell my ip address? with ifconfig
[03:09] <allowoverride> cuz its not showing any dhcp'd ip
[03:09] <scunizi> hexmare: I missed most of the previous conversation.. what are you trying to accomplish?
[03:09] <m0nk3y> anyone know how to stop maximized windows from going below the bottom panel in gnome
[03:09] <knoppies> allowoverride, I would read man ifconfig
[03:10] <allowoverride> knoppies: nah, thats not gonna help
[03:10] <allowoverride> but thanks
[03:10] <hexmare> scunizi , getting more then 640x480 out of my 8800gt graphics cards under karmic
[03:10] <Fauntix> First question: I cant seem to find any info to get my finepoint drive for tablet laptop to work on 9.10
[03:10] <allowoverride> im pretty familiar with ifconfig
[03:10] <scunizi> hexmare: lcd monitor or crt?
[03:10] <allowoverride> enough for this issue that is
[03:10] <knoppies> allowoverride, Im not.
[03:10] <hexmare> 21" lcd x 3
[03:10] <allowoverride> knoppies: thanks
[03:10] <knoppies> hexmare, nice.
[03:11] <dario> @webdeveloppers: i've installed zend framework. now, how can i get it running?
[03:11] <hexmare> knoppies will be a lot nicer ounce karmic uses them
[03:11] <knoppies> hexmare, I assume that means the dpkg-reconfigure didnt work?
[03:11] <allowoverride> when i ping <IP_ADDRESS>    network is unreachable
[03:11] <hexmare> knopies no it didnt
[03:11] <hexmare> I am about to downgrade to 9.04
[03:11] <knoppies> hexmare, it worked for me (one monitor, on an FX5200) but under gnome.
[03:11] <hexmare> under gnome here
[03:11] <sero> allowoverride: ifconfig
[03:11] <allowoverride> question - if i reboot, with ubuntu server automatically find that 2 nics are gone, and only one onboard nic remains?
[03:12] <sero> :P
[03:12] <rick_> hemare just wait 2 more months and 10.04 will be out
[03:12] <ae86-drifter_> dario what does top | grep zend show?
[03:12] <hexmare> LOL
[03:12] <alyssum> how can i have simple resolution of local domain hosts in an ubuntu-only network?  i have edited /etc/hostnams but nslookup still won't work, because the domain is nonexistant (no surpise here, i made it up).  does nslookup utilize the /etc/hostname file?
[03:12] <esicam> after i installed ubuntu 9.10 my laptop lost the sound but in window it is working
[03:12] <allowoverride> im remember in redhat, kudzu fixed all that
[03:12] <hexmare> well I will just downgrade to 9.04
[03:12] <Fauntix> First question: I cant seem to find any info to get my finepoint drive for tablet laptop to work on 9.10
[03:12] <asdfasdfasdfasdf> please help me
[03:12] <scunizi> hexmare: by 3?  three monitors? ok.. start with one leaving the others unplugged.. get that going first.. then add the next.. remember that there are really 2 different resolutions you're working with .. the size of X and the rez of each monitor.. X needs to be the size of the 3 put together.. xrandr handles a lot of that.. also nvidia-settings
[03:12] <ZykoticK9> hexmare, i have an 8800GT and it worked under 9.10 (and under 10.04)
[03:12] <xangua> !ask | asdfasdfasdfasdf
[03:13] <knoppies> allowoverride, I would turn the machine off, then reseat all the PCI cards, and boot it up again, see if that helps. But I seem to know less about this than you do.
[03:13] <rick_> Fauntix First Question:  what is a finepoint drive?
[03:13] <asdfasdfasdfasdf> xangua, i asked my question up :)
[03:13] <m0nk3y> anyone know how to stop maximized windows from going below the bottom panel in gnome
[03:13] <allowoverride> im pretty much explained what i did early quite well, sorry if you missed it, i tried to not make it too big a paragraph.
[03:13] <Fauntix> hey Dr_Willis is back
[03:13] <allowoverride> knoppies: did that
[03:13] <ranjan> esicam  my ubuntu media players are not audibles,,,,,,,through my laptop speakers but are audible with my headphones....my laptop speaker is very much fine (i checked it) ..any body suggest me the solution for it............
[03:13] <Dr_Willis> Fauntix:  no im not :P
[03:13] <hexmare> ok , give me a min to climb under my desk to unplug these
[03:13] <dario> still working ae86-drifter... the cursor dosen't jump on a new input line...
[03:13] <shifty-tl> Hello, I recently updated the kernel from my karmic install to 2.6.27-19, I noticed that from Grub I was still loading from 2.6.27-16, so I removed 2.6.27-16, and now I can't boot :S, how can I fix this?
[03:13] <dandaman1> how do i find out the address of my desktop so i can ssh to it?
[03:13] <asdfasdfasdfasdf> xangua,  hi i encrypted a file using 4096 and it generated a .asc file, now what i dont understand is that in options theres the export gpg password or even retrieve other persons passwords. so does this mean someone can just open the file retrieving the pass i created?!
[03:13] <scunizi> hexmare: don't do it while the computer is booted..
[03:13] <ae86-drifter_> dandaman1, ifconfig
[03:13] <blakkheim> dandaman1: echo `curl whatismyip.org`
[03:13] <esicam> after i installed ubuntu 9.10 my laptop lost the sound but in window it is working. PLZ PLZ Help
[03:13] <dandaman1> ty
[03:14] <allowoverride> basically i did the basics, but im missing something im sure for ubuntu server. i think its not the same as desktop 9.10 version.
[03:14] <alyssum> shifty-tl: did you hold shift while the computer boots up?  you should see the grub menu.
[03:14] <Sachse_Siechtum> anybody home?
[03:14] <Dr_Willis> Sachse_Siechtum:  No. :P
[03:14] <ZykoticK9> esicam, fresh install or upgrade?
[03:14] <Fauntix> Dr_Willis: Its for a tablet laptop ... Finepoint is the drive for the touch screen tablet
[03:14] <allowoverride> when i installed, the nic worked fine, went to the net, got all the configs, files so forth. the moment i rebooted, it wouldnt ping gw. this is something NOT right for sure.
[03:14] <shifty-tl> alyssum, well the grub loads, but the entry for ubuntu disappeared, memtest and windows xp is still there
[03:14] <ZykoticK9> esicam, you might want to have a look at http://www.ghacks.net/2010/02/03/managing-sound-in-ubuntu-9-10/ give a couple of good tips for troubleshooting
[03:14] <Dr_Willis> Fauntix:  means very little to me. Never seen/heard/used it.  the forums might have info on it
[03:15] <mdg2> ranjan: double click the sound icon on your panel bar so it brings up sound dialog
[03:15] <hexmare> oh god did that suck
[03:15] <Sachse_Siechtum> I got a problem: I just burned an .img file with nero linux...but when I put the cd rom in the cdrom drive I get this message: Method "Mount" with signature "ssas" on interface "org.freedesktop.Hal.Device.Volume" doesn't exist
[03:15] <Sachse_Siechtum> .
[03:15] <Fauntix> i googled the crud out of it
[03:15] <scunizi> hexmare: do you also have 2 video cards?
[03:15] <Sachse_Siechtum> (I'm using Xubuntu)
[03:15] <hexmare> yes
[03:16] <hexmare> if you tell me I need to pull one of them I think I am gonna flip
[03:16]  * hexmare snickers
[03:16] <ae86-drifter_> is there a way to recover a partition table / MFT if chkdsk and testdisk fail? my ntfs shows as unallocated/ fdisk shows a missing block of sectors. im running photorec now before i try anything, can anybody offer any other sugegstions? help would be much appreciated
[03:16] <alyssum> shifty-tl: i guess that your grub menu didn't get updated correctly the first time you installed the new kernel...well, you can manually input the line to boot up by pressing 'e' in grub.  but have to look it up, i forgot all the options.
[03:16] <allowoverride> question - how to i reconfigure the onboard nic drivers?  its a realtech semi RTL-0110sC/8159SC gigabit eth
[03:16] <ranjan> mdg2 no changes ........yet
