[18:18] <imc_> 8.10 on MacBookPro Santa Rosa - anyone figure out how to adjust the brightness?
[18:18] <biophile> ikonia: that documentation is just how to play not how to install
[18:19] <ikonia> biophile: contact the contact onthe website then
[18:19] <faria__> what is data services equipment id ?? labled on my pc casing .
[18:19] <waldfrank__> i'm searching for the conf files of the Network-Manager, because it do not save me configuration after a reboot
[18:19] <Kerin> Is there any way to catch all of a specific process' network activity?
[18:19] <lasivian> and it's listed in the gconf correctly as base64
[18:19] <almark> badawi I'll take your advice on reinstalling grub, its not that much trouble, things could be worse.
[18:19] <ikonia> biophile: we are not here to support 3rd party apps
[18:19] <badawi> almark: you don't have to install ubuntu on lvm, after you finish the installtion you can install the lvm packages and mount the lvm drives as usual, but booting can't be from lvm as far as i know
[18:19] <vladtsepesh1985> somebody can help me with synce please....I'm so sad....
[18:19] <lasivian> and I can connect from another ubuntu machine
[18:19] <Kerin> IE, find out what IPs it is sending packets to and when?
[18:19] <lasivian> but not from windows
[18:19] <badawi> !lvm
[18:19] <almark> badawi The thing is I don't use lvm.... yet.
[18:19] <biophile> ikonia: ok, thanks
[18:19] <ikonia> biophile: also if you untar the file you'll probably find a readme file thats worth reading, or an Install file
[18:19] <x264> my touchpad pastes when I tap the top right corner, and copy if I tap the bottom right corner.. how do I disable these?
[18:20] <badawi> almark: i have 2 harddisks, one of them is my /home partition and it's LVM
[18:20] <imc_> x264 system>preferences>mouse
[18:20] <Pici> lasivian: I assume that you left the 'ask me for confirmation' checkbox unchecked, have you tried using a different vnc client?
[18:20] <lasivian> yes it's unchecked, no I have not
[18:20] <faria__> what is data services equipment id ?? labled on my pc casing .
[18:21] <imc_> Re-post: 8.10 on MacBookPro Santa Rosa - anyone figure out how to adjust the brightness?
[18:21] <derdon> imc_: with F1 and F2 *SCNR*
[18:21] <x264> imc_ theres no option there to disable copy/paste
[18:21] <imc_> derdon, checking
[18:22] <badawi> almark: please don't pm me, we can discuss it in #ubuntu-offtopic
[18:22] <Kerin> Is there any way to catch all of a specific process' network activity - which is to say, get a list of all IPs that a process has sent data to?
[18:22] <imc_> x264 Oh, hmmm. Sorry about that.
[18:22] <scientes> why does low graphics mode go lower than framebuffer resolution if you have specifically edfined a higher framebuffer resolution
[18:22] <badawi> !ot | almark
[18:22] <almark> will do badawi
[18:22] <scientes> the minimim should be pegged exactally at framebuffer resolution
[18:23] <scientes> also cant X work on a framebuffer or not?
[18:23] <imc_> derdon, on my system for some reason F1/F2 have no effect on brightness. . . :(
[18:23] <lasivian> tried another vnc program and got "No security type suitable for RFB 3.3 supported"
[18:23] <MrCollins> can someone help me with sharing a folder in samba so my windows machine can read and write to it?
[18:23] <derdon> imc_: maybe Fn+F1 or Fn+F2
[18:24] <imc_> neither that! Thanks derdon, I'll trawl the web for a bit
[18:25] <lasivian_> use encrypted was checked, but I unchcked it, should I reboot after doing so?
[18:25] <balau> MrCollins, http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=202605 is the guide I followed
[18:25] <MrCollins> balau thank you

[18:26] <riot_> Hello
[18:29] <scientes> how do i package a module?
[18:29] <ikonia> scientes: quite a long process to package up files
[18:29] <scientes> ok then where should i put it?
[18:29] <ikonia> scientes: if you read the motu packaging guide you may get a good idea
[18:29] <ikonia> scientes: what do you mean where should you put it
[18:30] <scientes> i just build the nvidia driver
[18:30] <ikonia> scientes: what module is it?  who wrote it ?
[18:30] <cQ> how can i install moc?
[18:30] <ikonia> scientes: you don't need to build it, it's closed source
[18:30] <scientes> (or its compat layer)
[18:30] <cQ> how can i install moc?i use ubuntu 8.10
[18:30] <ikonia> cQ: moc ? what is moc ?
[18:30] <scientes> you still have to build the interface
[18:30] <badawi> qt4
[18:30] <scientes> now where do i put the .ko file
[18:30] <Pici> cQ: sudo apt-get install moc
[18:30] <ikonia> scientes: yes, but that is very fussy it's wise to build that on each install
[18:31] <cQ> http://paste.ubuntu.com/83084/
[18:31] <cQ> got that error
[18:31] <waldfrank__> i'm searching for the conf files of the Network-Manager, because it do not save me configuration after a reboot
[18:31] <n8tuser> waldfrank__-> /etc/network/interfaces
[18:31] <scientes> but the regular method didnt work, so where do i put this one i just built?
[18:31] <ikonia> cQ sudo apt-get install moc
[18:32] <ikonia> scientes what regular method
[18:32] <scientes> apt-get install nvidia-glx-177
[18:32] <evans2088> ...
[18:32] <scientes> or it usually does it automatically now
[18:32] <badawi> cQ: it's telling you what to do
[18:32] <waldfrank__> when I use the "interfaces" NM only show me the "lo" and i cant use openvpn or something else
[18:33] <cQ> http://paste.ubuntu.com/83088/
[18:33] <Slart> fwaokda: I meant the checkbox "Play alert sound".. if it's checked I get the system beep in the consol.. if it's unchecked I don't get the system beep..
[18:33] <cQ> got that when i type "moc" in terminal
[18:33] <Slart> fwaokda: and I'm not talking about the "Alert sound" sound effect.. this it the beep from the speaker inside the case
[18:33] <krish> i have mediawiki installed on my server and I need to edit the skin of the mediawiki but iam not able to locate the file. can anyone help?

[18:34] <Pici> cQ: Did you just install it?
[18:34] <badawi> cQ: do you need it with the qt3 or qt4?
[18:34] <cQ> what is qt3/4??
[18:34] <Pici> badawi: moc is cli
[18:35] <Pici> cQ: If you just installed it, you may need to either open a new terminal or run hash in your current one.
[18:35] <badawi> Pici: read cQ paste
[18:35] <n8tuser> waldfrank__-> add the other interfaces on that file if you want to use them
[18:35] <badawi> Pici: nevermind let me try it

[18:36] <cQ> install mocp??
[18:37] <n8tuser> waldfrank__-> if you want to respond to me, prefix your responses with my nick, as a courtesy
[18:37] <Pici> cQ: No. the pakcage name is moc, the binary is mocp
[18:37] <Pici> cQ: Just run mocp
[18:38] <cQ> yeah..i can see it

[18:39] <marenostrum> Hello. Ubuntu 8.10 here; Web upgraded from 8.04. And Firefox 3.0.4. Problem: When I connect to wwww.vtunnel.com (which is a web proxy) and connect to www.youtube.com via vtunnel (I can connect), videos can not be played. But if I connect to youtube directly, I can play videos. On the other hand, another Linux distro -with Firefox 3.0.4 as well- can connect youtube via vtunnel. What may be the reason? (As I remember, with 8.04 I could connect youtube
[18:39] <marenostrum>  via vtunnel)
[18:39] <cQ> pici::it is quite strange when almost all question can be solved here.u guys know a lot about linux??u all are??

[18:41] <Linuxman> does any1 know how to install graphics drivers in ubuntulike Via Chrom 9 igp drivers?
[18:41] <Pici> almark: Then don't use the automatic partitioning process.
[18:42] <almark> I dont want to use it, I want to skip it
[18:42] <Linuxman> any1?
[18:42] <n8tuser> Kwipper-> http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-637776.html
[18:42] <badawi> almark: when in partitioner phase, select manual or custom option, not sure which one it's called. then to tell ubuntu to install in a pre-existing partition, just select to format it and assign it a mount point
[18:43] <almark> that is true, but it still shows sdb

[18:49] <salmon> hi
[18:49] <jtapio> i need help with Miro downloads
[18:49] <sc30317> salmon: you have to put the 8.10 repositories in your /etc/apt/sources.list
[18:49] <peleg> zsquareplusc, ok, but what did you mean when you've said "you still can htpp://old-re..." ?
[18:49] <peleg> n8tuser, I don't know if I have enough space
[18:50] <n8tuser> peleg is /home in a separate partition?
[18:50] <salmon> sc30137: uhh... like i said, noob... how do i go about doing that
[18:50] <peleg> n8tuser, separate from what?
[18:50] <zsquareplusc> peleg: i thought you were complaining about not being able to upgrade from release to release because the old ones where not around anymore ;-)
[18:50] <poofsiepoofs> wiijii, what is mumble?
[18:50] <n8tuser> peleg-> separate partition  <-- ??
[18:51] <badawi> Kwipper: this has to do with the parameters passed to the kernel, try passing noirqdebug as a start
[18:51] <peleg> zsquareplusc, I'll repeat my "complain": I tried to upgrade from 7.04 to 7.10, and I got an error message: "The system was unable to get the prerequisites for the upgrade. The upgrade will abort now and restore the original system state."
[18:51] <Kwipper> badawi: How do I do that?
[18:51] <Kwipper> Do I type that in when I get the error message?
[18:51] <peleg> n8tuser, well, I have a few partitions here, but /home is together with /usr and /var, if that's what you're asking
[18:51] <poofsiepoofs> can mumble connect to ventriloo servers?????????????????
[18:51] <zsquareplusc> peleg: and your 7.04 was up to date?
[18:52] <peleg> zsquareplusc, well, I think so. I entered aptitude and clicked u and then g + g
[18:52] <n8tuser> peleg-> sudo fdisk -l  and post in pastebin please
[18:52] <vrtk> is it just me getting crazy or feisty fawn packages have just disappeared ?!
[18:52] <badawi> Kwipper: new before, when it's at the first menu thing

[18:53] <n8tuser> lasivian-> what exactly is the problem you are having?
[18:53] <peleg> n8tuser, empty output
[18:53] <peleg> zsquareplusc, is there a way to check this?
[18:53] <ShaunWing> also how would I change the video mode from "vesa" to i810?
[18:53] <EDinNY> How do I get ubuntu to mount the compact flash drive from my camera?  I plugged it in, the kernel sees it, but ubuntu does not mount it.
[18:53] <lasivian> I cannot connect from any vnc client on windows to my Ubuntu box
[18:53] <n8tuser> peleg-> that is  sudo fdisk -l   as an ell not 1
[18:53] <lasivian> but an ubuntu box can connect to it fine
[18:53] <badawi> Kwipper: at the boot menu, press F6 and add it to that line
[18:54] <peleg> n8tuser, that's what I did (but without sudo)
[18:54] <uniformsquare> I have installed adobe flash player yet it fails to support flash in firefox
[18:54] <n8tuser> lasivian-> what is the exact error if any?
[18:54] <Kwipper> badawi Okay
[18:54] <zsquareplusc> peleg: what was 7.04? feisty? that has been partially removed. to check: are all packange lists downloaded on "update"?
[18:54] <n8tuser> peleg-> then follow directions will you
[18:54] <EDinNY> uniformsquare: did you install flash from the deb or by hand?
[18:54] <peleg> n8tuser, yes, I just missed it. a moment
[18:54] <balau> EDinNY, try to run lsusb inside a terminal
[18:54] <lasivian> and I just got a "InstallLocation has no file" error going from ubuntu to Ubuntu
[18:54] <maverique> Greetings everyone
[18:54] <n8tuser> !who | lasivian
[18:54] <Radit> can anybody recomend a good alarm program?
[18:54] <peleg> zsquareplusc, it was feisty, yes
[18:55] <uniformsquare> add/remove, then from the firefox plugin helper, then terminal
[18:55] <lasivian> n8tuser: server did not offer supported security type mac
[18:55] <zsquareplusc> peleg: alternatively edit sources.list to point to old-releases and update from there
[18:55] <salmon> ok so i was just told in order to get 8.10 i need to put the repositories in my /etc/apt/sources.list and to be honest i have no idea what that means,,, complete noob here... can anyone help me?
[18:55] <Nibblyn> The upgrade process has left several kernel versions installed and are available to grub during startup. As are short of space wonder what packages with synaptic uninstall (headers? modules? which versions?). Grub should refresh automatically.
[18:55] <peleg> zsquareplusc, that's what I did, but I'll do it again now.
[18:55] <n8tuser> Radit-> cron and anachron  also  at
[18:55] <ShaunWing> say I've installed ubuntu and logging in with the username I created during installation but can't edit xorg.conf - don't have permission - please help.
[18:55] <EDinNY> balau, lsusb finds: Bus 005 Device 004: ID 0781:b6b7 SanDisk Corp.
[18:56] <n8tuser> lasivian-> which vnc client are you using from windows? can you even ping the linux from windows?
[18:56] <EDinNY> shawnwing, try "sudo" before your edit command
[18:56] <peleg> zsquareplusc, deb http://old-releases.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ feisty main restricted universe multiverse, deb http://old-releases.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ feisty-updates main restricted universe multiverse and deb http://old-releases.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ feisty-security main restricted universe multiverse ?
[18:56] <Radit> n8tuser: i'd rather a gui ;-)
[18:56] <lasivian> n8tuser: The ubuntu box is behind a router, so no ping is possible. I tried tightvnc and ultravnc
[18:56] <zsquareplusc> peleg: yes
[18:56] <ShaunWing> sorry what is sudo
[18:56] <zsquareplusc> !sudo
[18:57] <ShaunWing> tx
[18:57] <n8tuser> Radit-> cron and anachron  also  at   has gui front end, google for them please
[18:57] <peleg> zsquareplusc, then sudo aptitude, u for update, and g says "No packages are scheduled to be installed, removed, or upgraded.". Does that mean that my feisty is up-to-date ?
[18:57] <uniformsquare> what is better? swfdec or gnash?
[18:57] <Radit> n8tuser: all right.. thanks..
[18:57] <EDinNY> uniformsquare: I used the "sudo apt-get flash-nonfree", then restarted firefox, then it worked
[18:57] <n8tuser> lasivian-> behind a router?  when you are doing the linux to linux -- is the other linux on same subnet as the windows?
[18:57] <badawi> almark: http://news.softpedia.com/news/Installing-Ubuntu-8-10-97417.shtml
[18:58] <badawi> almark: where are you at?
[18:58] <zsquareplusc> peleg: it downloaded the package lists? then yes.
[18:58] <lasivian> n8tuser: No, this is over the internet
[18:58] <peleg> n8tuser, http://paste.freeallweb.org/88
[18:58] <balau> ShaunWing, if you need to use gedit or some editor, please use "gksu gedit xorg.conf" instead of "sudo gedit xorg.conf"
[18:58] <EDinNY> uniformsquare: not sure which depository you need to enable...try google
[18:58] <lasivian> the ubuntu that works and the windows that does not work are in the same place
[18:58] <peleg> zsquareplusc, ok, so now I should update the sources list again, or go straight to the update manager to upgrade?
[18:58] <n8tuser> lasivian-> then you have to kind of understand that the router in front of linux has to forward those packets towards the linux
[18:59] <almark> :badawi sorry I can't get my Ubuntu installer closed
[18:59] <lasivian> n8tuser: yes, I know that, and the ubuntu box is connecting just fine, but the windows box next to it is refusing to connect
[19:00] <lasivian> n8tuser: route to server is not an issue, the ports are setup properly to forward packets
[19:00] <almark> :badawi I can't find it to kill it and restart it
[19:00] <zsquareplusc> peleg: hm. not sure if the upgrade can cope with the old-releases urls. but maybe the upgrade runs an upgrade before upgrading.. so.. maybe try with old-releases. you seem to have already tried the other
[19:00] <n8tuser> peleg  also post results of   mount   command, you seemed to have spaces on /dev/sda6 per your post
[19:00] <cQ> my partition not mount automatically.how to make it mount auto??
[19:00] <n8tuser> lasivian->   when you are doing the linux to linux -- is the other linux on same subnet as the windows?  <-- you answered this?
[19:01] <uniformsquare> I tried "sudo apt-get install flashplugin-nonfree" it re-installed but still no dice
[19:01] <almark> :badawi how do I close the installer how do I force it?
[19:01] <n8tuser> cQ  add it to /etc/fstab or you have to modify your udev rules (assuming it is hot plug in?)
[19:02] <badawi_> almark: i got disconnected, where are you at now in relation to this http://www.shivaranjan.com/2008/11/04/ubuntu-linux-intrepid-ibex-810-installation-guide-walk-through/
[19:02] <_juan> hi! i am trying to compile my kernel using ubuntu's kernel configuration file, where can i find it?
[19:02] <almark> :badawi thanks :)
[19:02] <jedi06> how do you go to the background while a process is running in the terminal?
[19:02] <n8tuser> uniformsquare-> you have to add to either /usr/lib/mozilla  or /usr/lib/firefox   plugins directory the libflashplugin.so
[19:02] <peleg> zsquareplusc, got "While scanning your repository information no mirror entry for the upgrade was found.This can happen if you run a internal mirror or if the mirror information is out of date."
[19:02] <goodshit> hi. anyone got their sound working with this build in soundcard motherboard. abit AI7?? can someone please help, I cannot get my sound working :(

[19:07] <sebastian> hi i am using ubuntu eee, and why wireless dont work, it gets a signal but the internet dont work, when i installed this it worked fine untill i rebooted
[19:07] <almark> what is going on here ?
[19:07] <Nibblyn> The upgrade process has left several kernel versions installed and are available to grub during startup. Because I'm short on space I wonder which packages to uninstall with synaptic: everything starting with the old versions number? (headers? modules?). Grub should refresh automatically.
[19:07] <LjL-Simmons> !netsplit
[19:07] <peleg> Ok, I'm stuck. there's a catch here -- feisty is not supported, hence I can't upgrade to 7.10.   What should I do?
[19:07] <fosco___> Nibblyn, yes
[19:07] <balau> Nibblyn, i solved by removing the old linux-image
[19:07] <almark> I forgot the name I was speaking with
[19:07] <badawi> me?
[19:07] <almark> yes
[19:08] <rww> Nibblyn: issue uname -r from a terminal. You can remove anything linux kernel related that has a version number other than the latest one, the uname -r one, and (optionally) one extra one (to be safe)
[19:08] <sebastian> hi i am using ubuntu eee, and why wireless dont work, it gets a signal but the internet dont work, when i installed this it worked fine untill i rebooted
[19:08] <uniformsquare> under usr/lib/flashplugin-nonfree there is no file
[19:08] <rww> Nibblyn: and that includes image, headers, modules
[19:08] <almark> :badawi I can't close the installer I need to reopen it. what do i do
[19:08] <rubystallion> A long time ago I messed up my locale settings, which provokes many errors, even the "command-not-found" function of the terminal crashes. In tracebacks I always see LC_ALL="";LC_CTYPE="";LANG="fr_FR@euro";LNG="fr_FR". How do I correct this?
[19:08] <AlabamaHit> Hello, I'm into web development. I want to get completely dependent on Linux. But I need to be able to view web sites in different browsers. Are there any browsers in Linux that Look(display) a page like Internet Explore. I do not want to run wine....I was just wondering if a web browser displayed the same. For example I know Firefox Dont...What about like Opera.?
[19:08] <Painkilla05> arg I cant log in to my ubuntu :C
[19:08] <badawi> almark: you want to exit the installtion altogether?

[19:11] <sebastian> hi i am using ubuntu eee, and my wireless dont work, it gets a signal but the internet dont work, when i installed this it worked fine untill i rebooted
[19:11] <badawi> almark: too bad, i'm liking ubuntu :)
[19:11] <balau> cQ, try to keep your right button down until the menu appears
[19:12] <peleg> help, please. It took me two hours to get convinced that the right thing to do is to upgrade 7.04->7.10, and I took a day off in order to do it. For more than 2 hours now I can't do any progress - 7.04 is not supported, hence, I can't get active mirrors in order to perform the upgrade, even though my system is up-to-date
[19:12] <balau> cQ, when you release the right button while highlighting a menu entry, you perform the action on that menu
[19:12] <almark> :badawi I like it too badawi I just want to keep gentoo, that hmtl you gave me should do it thanks , and what is with all the flooding from ppl leaving?
[19:12] <rww> !netsplit > almark
[19:12] <cQ> im not highlight
[19:12] <almark> what does !netsplit mean
[19:13] <HeReTiK> hi
[19:13] <peleg> almark, the bot explained you
[19:13] <skorasaurus> !gpg
[19:13] <Pici> almark: They are triggers for ubottu to say something
[19:13] <cQ> see previous msg
[19:13] <badawi> almark: i have all JOINS/QUITS/PARTS on permenant ignore, so i don't see any of it in irssi
[19:13] <almark> thanks I read it
[19:13] <rubystallion> rww: Does localeconf exist for intrepid? I don't seem find it.
[19:13] <rww> peleg: maybe the thread at https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-devel/2008-December/026965.html might help?
[19:14] <peleg> rww, thanks, I'll read it
[19:14] <almark> :badawi I'm still new to irc so I'm learning
[19:14] <rww> rubystallion: hmm. If not, edit /var/lib/locales/supported.d/en yourself, then do sudo dpkg-reconfigure locales
[19:14] <Nibblyn> rww, fosco___, balau: thanks, will check that "uname -r one" command
[19:14] <rww> Nibblyn: i forgot to explain: uname -r shows the current kernel version you're using ;)
[19:15] <zsquareplusc> peleg: ok, netsplits and afk :/ how what's your state now?
[19:15] <peleg> rww, no, I knew that; I had put http://old-releases.ubuntu.com/ in my sources list, and updated the system, hence it is up-to-date
[19:15] <balau> cQ, i think firefox is opening the context menu exactly while you are releasing the right button, so you don't see the menu but you selected the "random" entry that appears beneath the cursor. I don't know how to fix this beside keeping the right button down
[19:15] <peleg> zsquareplusc, got "While scanning your repository information no mirror entry for the upgrade was found.This can happen if you run a internal mirror or if the mirror information is out of date."
[19:15] <peleg> zsquareplusc, and then "Do you want to rewrite your 'sources.list' file anyway? If you choose 'Yes' here it will update all 'feisty' to 'gutsy' entries.
[19:15] <peleg> If you select 'no' the update will cancel."
[19:16] <Mingebag> oh hi, how are all 1000 of you today
[19:16] <zsquareplusc> peleg: it looks fine for me to say yes.
[19:16] <MetalliMyers> I'm fine thanks
[19:17] <peleg> zsquareplusc, ok, I'll do it, but I think that this is what I did last time
[19:17] <rubystallion> rww: Hmm, in /var/lib/locales/supported.d/fr everything was already set to utf-8, but LANG is still "fr_FR@euro" and LC_ALL and LC_CTYPE are still empty. Any ideas?
[19:18] <peleg> zsquareplusc, I have pressed yes, and got many errors, including "Failed to fetch http://old-releases.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/gutsy/main/binary-i386/Packages.gz 404 Not Found"
[19:18] <rww> rubystallion: did you do sudo dpkg-reconfigure locales ?
[19:18] <peleg> "Failed to fetch http://old-releases.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/gutsy/restricted/binary-i386/Packages.gz 404 Not Found", "Failed to fetch http://old-releases.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/gutsy/universe/binary-i386/Packages.gz 404 Not Found" and so on
[19:18] <rubystallion> rww: Yes I did. Nothing changed.
[19:18] <Radit> is installing a deb from getdeb.net safe?
[19:19] <badawi> rubystallion: also see if seeting it during login from gdm
[19:19] <LjL-Simmons> Radiinot very
[19:19] <LjL-Simmons> radit: not very
[19:19] <Radit> ljl-simmons:hmm...
[19:19] <Pici> peleg: old-releases.ubuntu.com doesnt hold current releases. You'll need to change that to archive.ubuntu.com from either manually editing /etc/apt/sources.list or by using software sources.
[19:19] <Nibblyn> rww: LOL  ok... my version is 2.6.24-22-generic. will search with synaptic "2.6.24" and uninstall everything under 2.6.24-22.
[19:20] <rubystallion> badawi: I tried that. What's interesting is that it remains the same, even if I set the locale to en_US at the log-in and all the menus stay French.
[19:20] <rww> Nibblyn: good plan :)
[19:20] <peleg> Pici, I think we've had this discussion before... but I'll do that again (I feel that I am trapped in a loop)
[19:20] <Nibblyn> rww: thanks :)
[19:20] <zsquareplusc> peleg: argh. so it cant cope with the old-releases url. seems you have to change them back to archives before the upgrade
[19:20] <krish> how to upload images in mediawiki? iam using ubuntu 8.04 server edition
[19:20] <rubystallion> badawi: Only the prompt for username and password changes the language ;-)
[19:21] <badawi> rubystallion: sounds like a bug
[19:21] <rubystallion> badawi: I don't know. I'm sure it started when I messed with the locale settings some months ago. And it didn't change with the upgrade to intrepid.
[19:22] <cousteau> Nibblyn: why uninstall 2.6.24-22? just configure GRUB to boot from an older kernel
[19:22] <peleg> Pici, zsquareplusc: that's ok: http://paste.freeallweb.org/89  ??
[19:22] <rww> krish: ask in #mediawiki
[19:22] <badawi> rubystallion: env | grep LANG
[19:22] <krish> rww how to join mediawiki from here
[19:22] <rww> krish: /join #mediawiki
[19:22] <rubystallion> LANG=fr_FR@euro GDM_LANG=fr_FR.UTF-8
[19:22] <badawi> rubystallion: so gdm is not setting it?
[19:23] <rww> cousteau, Nibblyn: Nibblyn's removing old kernel versions, not downgrading kernels. I don't think cousteau's advice applies ;)
[19:23] <cousteau> ok, forget about my comment
[19:23] <rubystallion> badawi: Hmm, apparently not. I guess if I changed the language at the login screen only GDM_LANG would change?
[19:24] <badawi> rubystallion: no both should change in theory
[19:24] <badawi> rubystallion: testing ...
[19:24] <zsquareplusc> peleg: you manually changed to feisty too? (still at gutsy) so your going to use dist-upgrade
[19:24] <rubystallion> badawi: okay
[19:24] <rww> Guest37730: if you really want the nickname "sean", ask for it to be dropped in #freenode, then !register it
[19:24] <rww> !register | Guest37730
[19:25] <cousteau> "uninstall everything UNDER 2.6.24-22"... I read too fast
[19:25] <peleg> zsquareplusc, didn't understand you, sorry; I got the computer with feisty on it
[19:25] <jora> how does this work?
[19:25] <jora> can anyone tell me how to get a mic going on ubuntu
[19:25] <cousteau> anyway, I'd keep -19 since I have some problems with YouTube videos on -21 and -22
[19:25] <zsquareplusc> peleg: i dont understand myself.. heh. that's fine then.
[19:26] <jora> is anyone able to read this?
[19:26] <rww> jora: yes. If someone knows the solution to your problem, they'll reply to you :)
[19:26] <cousteau> jora: to read what?
[19:26] <peleg> Pici, do you know if I have the right sources in sources.list in order to upgrade? Was that what you've meant?
[19:27] <cousteau> jora: any error message?
[19:27] <forces> hi!
[19:27] <jora> i just wanted to know, if i'm actually sending, and not only receiving
[19:27] <jora> it's my first time using this thing xD
[19:28] <forces> I'm looking for a comunity near to Los Angeles CA
[19:28] <Pici> forces: Try asking in #ubuntu-us-ca
[19:28] <Pici> forces: or just #ubuntu-us
[19:28] <forces> thanks
[19:28] <rww> Pici, forces: didn't #ubuntu-us-ca move to #ubuntu-california ?
[19:29] <Pici> rww: I guess it did...
[19:29] <Pici> peleg: You should only have to change it to old-releases to make sure that you have update-manager upgraded to the latest version.  After that you should change it to archive.u.com and then try to upgrade.
[19:30] <rubystallion> badawi: Did you test if both locales change normally?
[19:30] <Flimm> What's funner, TrueCombat Elite or Urban Terror?
[19:31] <Wargasm> anyone know what's wrong if apache is only working on localhost and not my IP address? I haven't restarted ubuntu yet.
[19:31] <peleg> Pici, that's what I did. my sources file is, now, after I've already updated my system, is this: http://paste.freeallweb.org/89. Trying to upgrade, I am getting many errors, including "Failed to fetch http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/feisty/main/binary-i386/Packages.gz 404 Not Found [IP: <IP_ADDRESS> 80]" and "Failed to fetch http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/feisty/restricted/binary-i386/Packages.gz 404 Not Found [IP: 91.189.8
[19:31] <peleg> 8.46 80]"
[19:32] <zsquareplusc> Wargasm: either apache only binds to localhost insted of all interfaces or you have a hosts.deny or firewall
[19:32] <ricsi> sziasztok
[19:33] <Wargasm> i've got all the default settings.
[19:33] <Pici> peleg: Hmm..
[19:33] <ricsi> tudna nekem valaki segíteni 1 picit?
[19:33] <badawi> rubystallion: hey there, yes it did work, i didn't have any languages other than english, but i selected english UK and that did change both LANG and GDM_LANG
[19:33] <rww> !hu | ricsi
[19:33] <Wargasm> zsquareplusc, so if i have all default settings can it still go wrong?
[19:33] <ricsi> okay thx
[19:34] <rubystallion> badawi: I guess locale is probably looking in different places for locale settings, like system-wide and user-wide? I mean there has to be a configuration file somewhere, where LANG is set to fr_FR@euro, doesn't there?
[19:34] <Pici> peleg: Is that after you click the button to upgrade to a new release?
[19:34] <zsquareplusc> Wargasm: i dont know the defaults well, but it's possible that apache only binds to localhost due to security reasons.
[19:35] <Wargasm> true, zsquareplusc....I'll go through the config file. thanks.
[19:35] <peleg> Pici, yes. on the stage of "preparing the upgrade"
[19:36] <badawi> rubystallion: sorry i can't help you with it
[19:37] <Pici> peleg: Let me think about this..
[19:37] <rubystallion> badawi: Okay, I'll search a little on my own. Thanks anyway!
[19:37] <peleg> Pici, I'm here. thank you very much
[19:37] <sara_> hi any way i can coltrol my desktop remotly using my eee 701?
[19:38] <rww> !vnc | sara_
[19:38] <sara_> rww i know its not working though
[19:39] <zsquareplusc> pici, peleg, isnt the update manager trying to do an "update" of the current distro before continuing? and feisty (main) inst anymore on archives. maybe there is a switch to skip that check
[19:39] <sara_> i can do it the otherway roiund
[19:39] <zsquareplusc> sara_: you can share your desktop
[19:39] <rww> sara_: Which of the methods on https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VNC did you use?
[19:40] <peleg> zsquareplusc, I don't know; I guess I'll wait to pici's answer
[19:40] <zsquareplusc> yup
[19:40] <cousteau> Remote desktop viewer (Vinagre) is a good choice
[19:41] <Slade605> Hey guys, I am having an issue getting my up/down volume keys on my keyboard to work, It stopped working after fixing my microphone
[19:41] <sara_> rww: i didnt read that
[19:42] <ig0r1> Hello everyone!
[19:42] <rww> sara_: give it a read through and try the stuff there. It might help guide you though some of the nuances of setting things up.
[19:42] <msivanich> Is it possible to set up 2 x sessions.  One that runs on one video card and one that runs on another?
[19:42] <ig0r1> does anybody know how can I check if my videocard drivers are installed??
[19:42] <msivanich> ig0r1: what kind of video card do you have?
[19:42] <almark> Hello, the Ubuntu install will not let me choose the disk that I want to install it. The disk it wants to install on is my second disk, how Do I install Ubuntu to the first disk, that has Gentoo on it?
[19:43] <ZeZu> us.archive is down ?
[19:43] <cousteau> almark: isn't there a "set partitions manually" option?
[19:43] <rww> ZeZu: nope, just slow
[19:44] <almark> :cousteau yes but it keeps taking me to sdb not sda that is my problem, and there is no option to do so.
[19:44] <ig0r1> msivanich: It's a laptop, I'm not sure but I think its Intel GMA 950
[19:45] <msivanich> ig0r1: run 'lspci' from the terminal and you should be able to see it in there, will say VGA device
[19:45] <almark> :cousteau my setup is Gentoo on the first master disk and xp on the second slave one.
[19:46] <dfkuhgd> test
[19:46] <cousteau> it's strange that the installer only shows sdb* partitions and not sda*
[19:46] <mw-home_> I want my box to connect with a static IP address, but the dhclient daemon keeps overriding that.  How do I kill it?
[19:47] <fabry> aaaaaaaaaaa
[19:47] <almark> :cousteau it is but its true
[19:47] <Pici> peleg: Take a look at this bug, try the workaround it suggests: https://bugs.edge.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/update-manager/+bug/235527
[19:47] <cousteau> as the last option you can disconnect your sdb while installing, and reconnect and configure after ubuntu is installed
[19:47] <peleg> Pici, thanks, I will
[19:47] <orogor> hi , is there a channel for unbuntu amd64 ?
[19:47] <almark> :cousteau I'm going to have to.
[19:47] <msivanich> almark: or just stick with gentoo ;)
[19:47] <Pici> orogor: Nope, just here.
[19:48] <almark> :msivanich I want both ;)
[19:48] <orogor> i got 1-2 system freeze per day, i guess (instinct) it s related to the wireless driver (atheros) is there any thing i can do about that, (bug reports, diagnostics ?)
[19:49] <ig0r1> msivanich: It says 00:02.1 Display controller: Intel Corporation Mobile 945GM/GMS/GME, 943/940GML Express Integrated Graphics Controller   If my card is GMA 950 Gfx it would be OK or i have to install them?
[19:49] <Singldor> test
[19:49] <orogor> Singldor, how ?
[19:49] <almark> :cousteau I am hoping there could be a way to disconnect my other drive in bios, I dont want to open my computer for the 10th time in a month
[19:49] <rww> !test | Singldor
[19:50] <msivanich> ig0r1: check your xconfig /etc/X11/xorg.conf and look to see that its loading i810 (i think thats the correct module)  Can also parse through the Xorg log in /var/log to see what module it is loading
[19:50]  * ]Schakal[ hello
[19:50] <cousteau> well, once my PC guarantee ended, I opened a lot of times (even removed the screw so I could open it easily)
[19:50] <Slade605> Hey guys, I've volume adjusters on my Keyboard and it shows the volume going up but isn't changing anything at all, any suggestions on where to look?
[19:51] <cousteau> but maybe you can disconnect the HD from BIOS
[19:51] <cQ> c ya guys,im going to take bed..need some sleep.have nice day :)
[19:51] <peleg> Pici, ok, now it complains that there is not enough disk space. I'll handle that. thanks!
[19:52] <cousteau> Slade605: the speaker icon in your desktop may change
[19:52] <zsquareplusc> peleg: apt-get clean :-) you might have a bunch of debs from the last upgrade
[19:52] <peleg> zsquareplusc, thanks!
[19:52] <cousteau> or, hover the speaker icon, read the volume, use the vol keys and hover the icon again
[19:52] <Slade605> cousteau: That is the wierd thing, the onscreen volume level shows up and changes it, it USED TO work before getting my mic to work but now this doesn't adjust anything
[19:53] <ig0r1> msivanich: no it isn't loading. in Section "Device" I see Identifier - "Configured Video Device"
[19:53] <Slade605> cousteau: It feels like it's adjusting something I am not using like a surround sound speaker or something like that
[19:53] <cousteau> Slade605: double-click the icon so you can see all your controls
[19:54] <MrCollins> !ftp client
[19:54] <Slade605> cousteau: did that, and when i press it up or down it shows change, but none of them move, for playback or recording

[19:54] <peleg> do you know how to clean evolution's cache? I have about 1 GB there..
[19:54] <omshanti> how do i edit my "PATH variable"?
[19:54] <cousteau> maybe you changed the "controlled device"
[19:54] <msivanich> ig0r1: so you see nothing under "Device" section that says Driver "<module name>"
[19:54] <cousteau> Slade605: there are about 5 screens with different tabs
[19:55] <punzada> Question regarding awk, I'm aware I can use it to display the output of the field number using $1, $2, does anyone know how to also restrict it to a specific record number?
[19:55] <omshanti> also i try to save something in gedit and it crashes
[19:55] <badawi> is there a verbose flag in grub? or do i just remove the quiet flag?
[19:55] <tronyx> your PATH is in ~/.profile Omikane_
[19:55] <ig0r1> msivanich: no I only see that line
[19:55] <tronyx> * omshanti ^
[19:56] <rww> badawi: you mean to see info text during boot? remove the quiet flag
[19:56] <cousteau> Slade605: which device is selected when you right-click the volume icon and select "preferences"?
[19:56] <omshanti>  what tronyx?
[19:56] <badawi> rww: yes that, do i replace it with verbose?
[19:56] <cousteau> mine is "ALSA mixer, Master mono"
[19:56] <rww> badawi: nope, just remove quiet. the default is verbose
[19:56] <Slade605> cousteau: Master, under the HDA intel (ALSA Mixer)
[19:56] <badawi> rww: great thanks
[19:57] <aboyz> hi. anyone got their sound working with this build in soundcard motherboard. abit AI7?? can someone please help, I cannot get my sound working :(
[19:57] <Slade605> cousteau:  when using the volume control with my mouse I adjust master under HDA intel and I can hear a clear difference in volume
[19:58] <cousteau> but you can't hear any difference when you use the keys?
[19:58] <Slade605> cousteau: and the icon matches the actual volume, the keys don't adjust the icon at all
[19:58] <barefoot> anyone else unable to copy/paste from local to remote (or vice versa i guess) in rdesktop?
[19:58] <Slade605> cousteau: it does the whole onscreen speaker and volume level when I use the keys
[19:58] <cousteau> maybe the keys are affecting another control, or no one
[19:59] <Slade605> cousteau: that is what I am thinking, I just don't have any idea how to change it
[19:59] <cousteau> oh, like the built-in amplifier
[19:59] <Slade605> cousteau:  I did system >preferences > keyboard short cuts, and it's setup correctly
[20:00] <candive> w do I change the timer on boot from 10 seconds to 3seconds. Thank you
[20:00] <Slade605> cousteau:  I just added a few more items to playback, and it looks like it's affecting microphone playback
[20:00] <ravalox_> Creative Labs SB Audigy LS; on Ubuntu 8.10 am I just SOL?
[20:00] <candive> typo How
[20:00] <boriscy> hI there Iam new to ubuntu, I have isntalled ubuntu feistyin my server but I can't install new packages using apt-get isntall
[20:00] <cousteau> candive: modify /boot/grub/menu.lst
[20:00] <Slade605> boriscy:  try apt-get update first
[20:00] <cousteau> sudo gedit /boot/grub/menu.lst
[20:00] <boriscy> thanx
[20:01] <candive> cousteau, is that command in terminal?
[20:01] <cousteau> yes
[20:01] <ravalox_> I mean to say, does a Creative Labs SB Audigy LS make any sound onUbuntu 8.10?
[20:01] <candive> cousteau thanksthank you
[20:01] <cousteau> then look for "timeout 10" and change it to 3
[20:02] <candive> cousteau, command not found
[20:02] <candive> my mistake sudo
[20:02] <cousteau> it's on the 19th line
[20:02] <kristian1> if i apt-get install app, and i already have that app what will happen? :o nothing if same version and update if not same version???
[20:03] <Slade605> kristian1:  it should upgrade to the highest version currently in the repositories
[20:03] <rww> boriscy: Feisty is no longer supported, and thus its repositories have been removed from archive.ubuntu.com. You'll need to edit your /etc/apt/sources.list and change the servernames in there to http://old-releases.ubuntu.com/
[20:03] <gzibocod> Hi.
[20:04] <kristian1> Slade605 ok thanks. :)
[20:04] <boriscy> I have run apt-get update, but can't isntall using apt-get install
[20:04] <Slade605> boriscy:  see rww's comment above
[20:04] <candive> cousteau, command still not found
[20:04] <mebus> what does apt-get say ?
[20:04] <cousteau> which command? gedit?
[20:05] <Kozeris> I have 1 hdd with WinXp, i bought one more for [k]ubuntu, so how install it for that i  can choose which OS load, and if i want i could disconnect ubuntu, and then no menu appear and xp loads
[20:05] <boriscy> Thanx :D
[20:05] <rww> boriscy: if you only just installed Ubuntu, /strongly/ consider reinstalling a more recent version
[20:05] <Kozeris> its somehting to  configure linux disk, for that opop up table with choose, and if no that hdd then no table for OS
[20:05] <boriscy> I have installed ubuntu server
[20:05] <boriscy> rww
[20:05] <Slade605> Kozeris: do you want your 2nd disc to be bootable AND your first disk?
[20:06] <Kozeris> i have 1 disk with xp, i will connect 2nd, then instal on 2nd ubuntu
[20:06]  * heret1c wakes
[20:06] <Kozeris> and want to that when 2nd hdd is connected i getting  choose menu of operation sys
[20:06] <Kozeris> but if i disc 2nd hard with linux i not getting, and it loading like it was, and is now
[20:06] <KaiForce> is there a way to test whether a script has been run with sudo?
[20:06] <Slade605> Kozeris: Do you want them to know about each other or is it a wife/mistress situation?
[20:07] <rww> boriscy: Right. You just installed Ubuntu Server Feisty, which is from 2007. The lastest version is Ubuntu Server Intrepid (Oct. 2008). The latest Long Term Support release is Ubuntu Server Hardy (April 2008).
[20:07] <KaiForce> or otherwise force sudo for all the commands in the script?
[20:07] <Slade605> KaiForce: add su to the beginning of it?
[20:07] <cousteau> KaiForce: "sudo su" logs you as root
[20:07] <mebus> boriscy: you have to change your package sources in /etc/apt/sources.list
[20:07] <ActionParsnip> KaiForce: just put sudo in the script. If you run the script with sudo, all sudo commands will be executed as sudo
[20:07] <badawi> Kozeris: change the boot order in bios and install ubuntu on the second disk, with grub being on the second disk, when u're bored with ubuntu, switch the bios boot order to it's original form
[20:08] <mebus> probably to the archive version
[20:08] <chico> salut
[20:08] <chico> j'arrive po à agrandir une photo sous gimp
[20:08] <rww> cousteau: the preferred way of doing that is sudo -i
[20:08] <mebus> anyway I would install a more recent version
[20:08] <rww> !fr | chico
[20:08] <ActionParsnip> !fr | chico
[20:08] <KaiForce> if place sudo at the beginning of the script - the remaining commands will execute as sudo?  or do I need sudo on each line?
[20:08] <boriscy> mebus
[20:08] <barefoot> fwiw: "-r clipboard:PRIMARYCLIPBOARD" lets you copy paste to/from rdesktop
[20:08] <boriscy> how should I do that
[20:08] <jason__> quit
[20:08] <Slade605> KaiForce:  SuDo = Super User DO, it's per command, try adding su for a super user login initially
[20:09] <KaiForce> i need to insure that sudo is used as the sysadmin is absentminded
[20:09] <mebus> sorry, that's the problem I had with an old ubuntu
[20:09] <KaiForce> Slade605:  got it, that will work, thank you.
[20:09] <mebus> what error message do you get when you run sudo apt-get install ....
[20:09] <rww> boriscy: if you only just installed Ubuntu, it'd probably be easier to just download a CD image from http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/download
[20:09] <mebus> just to be curious
[20:09] <mebus> rww: I agree.
[20:10] <mebus> It's more secure also.
[20:10] <rww> boriscy: and wipe the install you just did and install intrepid/hardy from scratch.
[20:10] <boriscy> Thanx
[20:11] <mebus> Why does Ubuntu move the package sources to another URL, whe the release becomes to old ? I don't think that this is a good solution.
[20:11] <mebus> and rather anoying
[20:12] <KaiForce> Slade605 - what is the best way to test if the user entered the correct password - I need the script to abort if they do not.
[20:12] <ActionParsnip> mebus: if you are upgrading release they are updated for you
[20:12] <Slade605> KaiForce: use && after su ?
[20:12] <Constrabus> Does the 8.10 xubuntu install CD's kernel have ext4 support?
[20:12] <mebus> but I don't want to upgrade
[20:12] <ikonia> Constrabus no
[20:12] <rww> mebus: to cut down on the resources needed by the distributed mirrors
[20:12] <mebus> cause an upgrade can go wrong
[20:12] <Slade605> KaiForce: It really depends on the script
[20:13] <mebus> they could redirect the URL to another mirror.
[20:13] <rww> mebus: the old releases archive isn't mirrored. the new one is.
[20:13] <j0nr> evening all
[20:13] <j0nr> when i create a new user and then log into their account, nothing works
[20:13] <Brydenn> anyone else here use Cairo-Dock ?? Having some issues with it
[20:13] <j0nr> the desktop and panels load up but nothing responds to click, except the firefox launcher, but then you cant do anything in firefox... ie. cant type any addresses in etc.
[20:13] <mebus> rww: they simply don't want to provide mirrors for the old version - I understand.
[20:13] <ActionParsnip> mebus: an install can go wrong, anything can go wrong
[20:14] <j0nr> but my log in works fine... its just for new users
[20:14] <ActionParsnip> mebus: you can use backports
[20:14] <rww> mebus: besides, those releases are unsupported now. there's been plenty of warning that they'd be unsupported. it's kinda the user's problem at this point :P
[20:14] <j0nr> cant drop any of the menus down, like apps, places, system... noting responds
[20:14] <j0nr> have tried creating serveral users, all do the same thing ;/
[20:14] <mebus> yes, but I think I had only one succesufl distri-upgrade in about 4 to 5
[20:15] <ActionParsnip> mebus: my system hardware is 100% linux friendly works out of the box and I only use official repos
[20:15] <ActionParsnip> mebus: zero issues here
[20:15] <Brydenn> ActionParsnip, mine wasnt... kinda
[20:15] <Brydenn> my x-fi card took some work hehe
[20:16] <badawi> j0nr: are you creating their own folders? are you running out of space?
[20:16] <mebus> I think it's because I sometimes use debs from other side or install software via make install etc. Which is realy bad.
[20:16] <ActionParsnip> Brydenn: thats because creative are idiots
[20:16] <Brydenn> anyway, does anyone use that Cairo-Dock? could really use some help
[20:16] <Brydenn> ActionParsnip, yes i agree
[20:16] <j0nr> badawi: i am not running out of space... they all automatically get their own directory created... have a seperate partition for /home
[20:16] <jonaskoelker> how do I make pulseaudio persist across X sessions?
[20:16] <ActionParsnip> Brydenn: always check the hcl. dont buy cheap, buy smart
[20:17] <Constrabus> Does the development LiveCD have ext4 support built into its kernel?
[20:17] <bmk789> is there a way to put multiple ISOs on a usb key and be able to boot any of them?
[20:17] <Brydenn> x-fi fatality wasnt a cheap sound card lol
[20:17] <ikonia> Constrabus: no
[20:17] <ActionParsnip> mebus: that'll be why you get issues
[20:17] <jonaskoelker> (i.e., persist means "keep running")
[20:17] <drkn00ck3rz> If I install updates on Ubuntu, will it result into a system fluctuations likely the windows updates ?
[20:17] <ActionParsnip> Brydenn: depends how much money you have
[20:17] <Brydenn> ActionParsnip, well i'm not bill gates. 100+ on a sound card for me is spendy
[20:17] <mebus> ActionParsnip: yup and that's why I stay with old releases on machines I only sometimes use.
[20:17] <jonaskoelker> bmk789: hmm... I dunno, but I'd look into the chain-loading capabilities of grub
[20:18] <ActionParsnip> Brydenn: its only 85GBP
[20:18] <Constrabus> ikonia Not as a choise to install with, just compiled into the kernel. Im using ubuntu liveCD's terminal to install gentoo
[20:18] <Brydenn> well i'm American :)
[20:18] <badawi> j0nr: what if you do ctrl+alt+f1, log in then -> startx -- :1
[20:18] <ikonia> Constrabus: no
[20:18] <mebus> but I should probably use another distro for this like debian or so.
[20:18] <Constrabus> ikonia k Thank you
[20:18] <bmk789> jonaskoelker: ok thanks
[20:18] <ActionParsnip> mebus: try a few distros, there is more than debian, try mandrive / suse
[20:19] <mebus> I want to try the new 11.1 suse on my thinkpad.
[20:19] <j0nr> badawi: ill give it a go
[20:19] <histo> Does dd copy blank blocks? I want to backup my thumbdrive but don't care about hte blank blocks.
[20:19] <KaiForce> Slade605, ActionParsnip,cousteau thanks for the assist.
[20:20] <zsquareplusc> histo: yes, dd just takes them all. either gzip the result or use partimage or similar software
[20:20] <ActionParsnip> KaiForce: np man
[20:20] <histo> zsquareplusc, what about the sync option?
[20:20] <histo> zsquareplusc, of dd
[20:20] <mohbana__> how do i control how much history is saved in the command line?
[20:21] <drkn00ck3rz> Does installing Ubuntu update, cause system fluctuations like Windows Updates ?
[20:22] <vladtsepesh1984> having this error while using synce....http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/83126/ anyone help me????
[20:22] <dinar> hu
[20:22] <dinar> hi
[20:22] <lorgam> Hello
[20:22] <j0nr> badawi: hmmm errors
[20:22] <dinar> there is vmwre plate in add/remove applications
[20:22] <zsquareplusc> histo: never used that, but at first glance it does not look like it would really help for filesystems
[20:22] <dinar> player
[20:22] <j0nr> badawi: if i go startx -- :1 then it says fatal error
[20:22] <dinar> vmware player
[20:22] <ostro> drkn00ck3rz it might, it's better to let others update first
[20:23] <histo> zsquareplusc, nvm the empty space didn't take any time to copy since its just writing 0's
[20:23] <lorgam> What is the minimal size of hard disk I have to reserve to Ubuntu please ?
[20:23] <dinar> but in synaptic are only 2 files
[20:23] <fosco_> lorgam: minimal or usable?
[20:23] <desi> test
[20:23] <dinar> vmware-server-kernel-modules-2.6.22-14 packet is not vmware player?
[20:23] <Gnea> !partition | lorgam
[20:23] <lorgam> fosco_ > usable
[20:23] <mohbana__> how do i control how much history is saved in the command line?
[20:23] <fosco_> lorgam: about 10gb
[20:24] <lorgam> fosco_ : and minimal ?
[20:24] <fosco_> 4.something
[20:24] <lorgam> ok
[20:24] <badawi> j0nr: maybe it's because it's already logged in, see ctrl+alt+f8 f9 f10 ...
[20:24] <dinar> it can be installed from add/remove app. but not from synaptic?
[20:24] <lorgam> I'll take 5
[20:24] <drkn00ck3rz> Ostro: I mean I am getting update prompt on my ubuntu desktop. My query is: By updating the system, will the system behave unexpectedly ?
[20:24] <remoteCTRL> can i somehow synchronize folders?
[20:24] <Gnea> lorgam: check that URL, it's got some general advice
[20:24] <lorgam> oky
[20:24] <lorgam> thanks
[20:24] <hackwins> someone can help me with my eeebuntu?
[20:25] <hackwins> sound problems in my asus eee
[20:25] <feltham83> hi ppl
[20:25] <Gnea> hackwins: #ubuntu-eeepc
[20:25] <hackwins> yea gnea
[20:26] <feltham83> i'm new to ubuntu and it's fantastic
[20:26] <hackwins> Gnea: the best info never received thanks
[20:26] <Gnea> hackwins: go there, they can help you
[20:26] <Gnea> hackwins: well, hopefully they'll appreciate your attitude better than we won't here.
[20:26] <mohbana__> how do i control how much history is saved in the command line?
[20:26] <j0nr> badawi: when i go to ctrl alt f9 it flicks me into that users logged in session... what is that function?
[20:27] <j0nr> badawi: also, it seems to be working in there at the mo
[20:27] <j0nr> ??
[20:27] <Scix> _ruben gave me this script (http://paste.ubuntu.com/82978/) earlier to day, but i'm only getting "command not found" error. I used this guide to setup debmirror: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Debmirror
[20:28] <whileimhere> Hi.
[20:28] <Scix> #debian tipsed me about a set -xv command i could add to the top of the script to se which command who failed, but i'm getting the same :(
[20:29] <whileimhere> I just upgraded via a fresh cd install to 8.10 and when I try to do the usual synaptic updates it just sits there and never downloads the packages.
[20:29] <danopia> hi
[20:29] <Gnea> Scix: how are you trying to run the script?
[20:29] <danopia> any known issues when working with long (multiline) bash prompts?
[20:29] <Venom> does anyone know why after installing 8.10 all usb devices stops working after 5-10mins?
[20:29] <badawi> j0nr: for me when gnome miss behaves like that, it's when there are more than on login for the same user to gnome, like vnc and freenx, but in u're case i don't know what's going on
[20:30] <zigovr3> hi all, after resuming from sleep, I sometimes  have klogd that eat 100% of the CPU (but there are no kernel messages or anything is being logged in /var/log), any idea what is the problem ?
[20:30] <badawi> j0nr: ... than on* login ...
[20:30] <zigovr3> restarting klogd fixes it but it's pretty strange
[20:30] <badawi> j0nr: ... than one* login ...
[20:30] <badawi> :/
[20:30] <Gnea> danopia: deep directories tend to push the limits of the terminal, causing corruption
[20:30] <j0nr> badawi: ok... but what does cntl alt f9 do? i mean it takes me to that logged in session? but why
[20:30] <Scix> Gnea: /usr/local/bin/mirrorbuid.sh
[20:30] <danopia> Gnea, no, I mean where I'm in ~/
[20:30] <Scix> Gnea:* sudo /usr/local/bin/mirrorbuid.sh
[20:30] <SJr|Work> http://pastebin.com/m5cbc211d
[20:30] <Gnea> Scix: did you chmod 755 to it?
[20:31] <SJr|Work> Anyone have any idea why I can't execute that script, in the link directly?
[20:31] <danopia> Gnea, but I type a command that is longer than hte window, so it goes OVER the existing line
[20:31] <jonaskoelker> how/where can I configure how gnome runs pulseaudio?
[20:31] <Gnea> danopia: yeah, that's corruption.
[20:31] <danopia> Gnea, so how would i be able to use long commands?
[20:31] <danopia> i can USE htem but editing them is hard
[20:31] <Gnea> danopia: change your prompt
[20:32] <mohbana__> how do i control how much history is saved in the command line?
[20:32] <oro> Hi, all.
[20:32] <steven1> hi
[20:32] <Pici> danopia: You can put a backslash and press enter without disrupting the command.
[20:32] <Scix> Gnea: Hehe, PEBCAK from me x)
[20:32] <oro> test.....中文

[20:33] <Gnea> Scix: cheers "_
[20:33] <Gnea> :)
[20:33] <badawi> oro: looks like chinese characters
[20:33] <corinth> How do I disable tooltips on the window list applet on the panel?
[20:33] <DEViUS> anything hot on the row
[20:33] <badawi> j0nr: it's when you switch users it gives f9
[20:33] <oro> Ya, it's chinese.
[20:33]  * Gnea points DEViUS to corinth
[20:34] <D3RGPS31> is there a way to install mac drivers >.>
[20:34] <angeleyes> i want to add an account to empathy but it tell me to install a backend
[20:34] <Gnea> D3RGPS31: on a mac? sure.
[20:34] <DEViUS> corinth: just disable libnotify, thats what i did, but it disables lots of notifications
[20:34] <D3RGPS31> Gnea: on ubuntu
[20:34] <oro> I'm Taiwanes and I'm a new gay of IRC
[20:35] <corinth> DEViUS: Wow, I feel silly. I forgot to google first, lol. I actually found a way to take care of just that one. Thanks, though. :-)
[20:35] <angeleyes> i want to add an account to empathy but it tell me to install a backend
[20:35] <DEViUS> corinth: lol np
[20:35] <Gnea> D3RGPS31: OSX drivers are not compatible with Ubuntu.
[20:35] <DEViUS> corinth: anyways am here :)
[20:35] <D3RGPS31> Gnea: D:
[20:35] <D3RGPS31> thanks though
[20:36] <baba_b00ie> how do i probe my video card so i know what firmware it is ?
[20:37] <WinterWeaver> lspci I think is the command
[20:37] <baba_b00ie> k thanks..
[20:37] <D3RGPS31> Anyone know how to get absolute positioning for an adesso cybertablet?
[20:37] <DEViUS> baba_b00ie: i cant rememba the cpecific command for the graphics card but lspci woouud do the job as well
[20:38] <baba_b00ie> ty yeah i'm looking at manpages to see
[20:39] <DEViUS> baba_b00ie: this is better                              lspci | grep VGA
[20:39] <baba_b00ie> DEViUS, dude like ty bunchs
[20:40] <DEViUS> baba_b00ie: ???
[20:40] <baba_b00ie> DEViUS, just saying thanks for the exact command.. i was just hitting up the manpages for lspci
[20:40] <DEViUS> baba_b00ie: oh lol np
[20:40] <danopia> Gnea, also if I use hte scrollback, sometimes 4-cahractor prefixes from previous commands add htemselves on the prompt for that command
[20:40] <danopia> i.e. if i hit up and get "sudo vim asdf", sometimes when I hold backspace it only goes up to "sudo" then stops,a nd if I type a command after the first "stuck" part, the command will still work
[20:42] <Gnea> danopia: i learned long ago that it's better to just keep it simple: \u@\h:\w\$
[20:42] <danopia> Gnea, i know
[20:42] <danopia> i'm in !/

[20:43] <danopia> Gnea,  LONG LONGanopia ~]$ LONG LONG LONG LONG LONG LONG LONG LONG LONG LONG LONG
[20:43] <danopia> what I got past the edge it wraps to the same line
[20:43] <Gnea> danopia: that's crazy, what do you get from this command:  echo $PS1
[20:43] <Pici> danopia: What terminal are you using?
[20:44] <danopia> pici xfce's terminal w/ bash afaik
[20:44] <danopia> Gnea, it has color codes, would that be it?
[20:44] <OmegaNine> Im on a Dell 1505, and when I use the media keys to turn up and down the volume, for some reason its turning the "Recording Volume" up and down, not the output volume down.  The keys looks set right in Gnome Keyboard Short cuts, but...its not.  Anyone know of a fix this for?
[20:44] <OmegaNine> *a fix for this
[20:44] <danopia> my prompt is \[\e]0;\w\a\]\[\e[32m\][\[\e[36m\]\u\[\e[33m\]@\[\e[34m\]\h \[\e[33m\]\w\[\e[32m\]]\[\e[1;0m\]$\e[0m
[20:44] <Gnea> danopia: if they aren't terminated correctly, probably
[20:44] <DEViUS> danopia: help -> about
[20:44] <danopia> would it be the colors? :P
[20:44] <rb2k> t
[20:44] <danopia> it jsut says temrinal... it's xfce's terminal
[20:45] <lvlefisto1> what is the command to know what package installed libpthread?
[20:45] <danopia> afaik my shell is bash
[20:45] <Nattgew> OmegaNine, try adding the volume applet to the panel and setting it to control the volume you want
[20:45] <danopia> zsh does not wrap incorrectly, but PS1 won't take any args either such as user/host
[20:46] <cousteau> does anybody know about VHDL?
[20:46] <danopia> unles it's different than bash
[20:46] <bluespuke> hi, i'm looking for a dreamweaver-like application for intrepid/gnome. someone knows any?
[20:46] <zleap> bluefish
[20:46] <zleap> nvu
[20:46] <zleap> text editor
[20:46] <rjune> nvu is a good HTML editor
[20:46] <rjune> quanta is nice too
[20:46] <danopia> i use geany because i use PHP too
[20:46] <rjune> though quanta is a QT/KDE application
[20:47] <zleap> i would have suggested vi, but would risk gtting flamed by emacs users
[20:47] <rjune> emacs?
[20:47] <DEViUS> lvlefisto1: be more specific, i dont get what you mean
[20:47] <OmegaNine> Nattgew, I can control the sound just fine threw the software volume applet, but for some reason when I use the vol up/down eyes on the front panel its changing the recording volume
[20:47] <rjune> isn't that the OS masquerading as  a text editor?
[20:47] <zleap> yeah
[20:47] <angeleyes> hi all can some one pls tell me how i can invite some one to view my webcam wit kopete
[20:47] <scientes> is qos on by default in ubuntu?
[20:47] <lvlefisto1> i mean, libpthread.so is making pidgin crashh all the time, i wan't to know which package has it so i can install a newer version
[20:47] <rjune> scientes, qos == quality of service yes?
[20:47] <ikonia> scientes: it's a set of iptables modules
[20:47] <DEViUS> bluespuke: are you a begginner or advanced user to "web programing"
[20:48] <angeleyes> hi all can some one pls tell me how i can invite some one to view my webcam wit kopete
[20:48] <DEViUS> angeleyes: does your webcam work 1st of all
[20:48] <DEViUS> angeleyes: did you test its functionality
[20:48] <psyjoniz> rather vanilla install (8.10) on a bootable USB stick - left and down arrow keys do not repeat.  up and right do along with every other key i have tested.  help please?
[20:48] <Nattgew> OmegaNine, how about going to your sound preferences and changing the default mixer track?
[20:48] <angeleyes> yes
[20:48] <jj_galvez> what user permissions do I need to add file to /var/www for apache to serve them?
[20:48] <rjune> ikonia, a set of iptables modules? when did that change? last I used it, it was based on tc, which did the actual work
[20:49] <ActionParsnip> psyjoniz: make sure your keyboard is the correct setting
[20:49] <RomD> is it possible to remap keyboard keys on the fly? the german keyboard has Y and Z switched, so it would be nice If I could switch them when pressing CTRL (for undo)
[20:49] <ActionParsnip> !keyboard | psyjoniz
[20:49] <ikonia> rjune: bad choice of words, it's controlled via the iptables modules in terms of direction, then as you say tc will do the actual shaping
[20:49] <psyjoniz> ActionParsnip : i just finished doing that before coming here and it didn't seem to help :/
[20:50] <DEViUS> angeleyes: plz direct your reply to me, now, in the conversation dialog box u will c the option
[20:50] <psyjoniz> the keys do what they are supposed to they just don't repeat
[20:50] <rjune> tc can filter as well, but normally, iptables is used to mark the packets as well as mangle them(DSCP, etc)
[20:50] <scientes> ikonia, so do i have to specify it in iptables or can it just automatically trush qos flags?
[20:50] <cs-steffan> hi i have already downloaded and installed ubuntu. but i ask for something. how to install msn messenger
[20:50] <rjune> scientes, no, it's not enabled by default.
[20:50] <ikonia> rjune: much better explination
[20:50] <ActionParsnip> psyjoniz: does it work ok in bios (tests the keyboard isnt faulty)
[20:50] <RomD> cs-steffan,  use pidgin
[20:50] <rjune> ikonia, is what I do.
[20:50] <RomD> it can handle msn accounts
[20:50] <cs-steffan> ok thanks
[20:50] <ActionParsnip> psyjoniz: you could update to make sure its not an old version of some package breaking stuff
[20:50] <rjune> cs-steffan, or kopete if you're using kubuntu
[20:50] <psyjoniz> ActionParsnip : i can try in bios but as this is a usb stick i use it on different machines and it acts the same everywhere
[20:51] <ActionParsnip> psyjoniz: updaetd kernel may help
[20:51] <DEViUS> angeleyes: in the conversation window there is a frop down menu named "CHAT" u will c the webcam options
[20:51] <danopia> zleap, vim is awesume
[20:51] <OmegaNine> Nattgew, Pff, that totally worked, thanks so much
[20:51] <danopia> don't let emacs lovers kill youforsaying it
[20:51] <ActionParsnip> psyjoniz: hmm, id just check just so you know the keyboard likes your pc
[20:51] <krish> can anyone tell me how can I earn good income from my blogs?
[20:51] <zleap> lol
[20:51] <DEViUS> angeleyes: in the conversation window there is a Drop down menu named "CHAT" u will c the webcam options (invite and request)
[20:52] <rjune> krish, step one blog. step two: ??????. step three: profit!
[20:52] <ActionParsnip> !ot | krish
[20:52] <DEViUS> krish: this isnt an affiliates blablabla
[20:52] <NotADJ> /m/win 21
[20:52] <NotADJ> Oops
[20:52] <cs-steffan> rjune i have ubuntu-8.10
[20:52] <cs-steffan> so i use pidgin
[20:53] <ActionParsnip> cs-steffan: you can also use amsn
[20:53] <krish> hey is anyone interested in contributing ubuntu related articles to my wiki?
[20:53] <ActionParsnip> cs-steffan: if you only use msn, pidgin supports a wide r\ange of protocols
[20:53] <mebus> which wiki ?
[20:53] <rjune> no.
[20:53] <ActionParsnip> krish: its offtopic here
[20:54] <cs-steffan> yes i just use msn
[20:54] <ActionParsnip> cs-steffan: id hit up amsn: sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install amsn
[20:54] <DEViUS> cs-steffan: my advice emesene rocks
[20:54] <rjune> I believe pidgen will integrate with evolution
[20:54] <j0nr> badawi: thanks for your help... i am unsure whats going on... but new user accounts don't work.
[20:55] <DEViUS> cs-steffan: try both aMsn and emesene and see what suits you :D
[20:55] <DEViUS> cs-steffan: they are both excellant
[20:55] <digitalvaldosta> I was wondering if anyone knew how to add album art to an mp3 file? I have downloaded some that when played in a program or device that uses them it show it. However some songs don't have it. Particularly my psp is where I would like to have it. Rhthymbox of course downloads them but doesn't make it as part of the file.

[20:56] <anfy> can anyone identify the processors in this photo? http://img255.imageshack.us/img255/646/1421g413b3n03m83p18bg88jm5.jpg
[20:56] <Nattgew> digitalvaldosta try using easytag
[20:56] <dandaman862> digitalvaldosta use easy tag....Free editing program
[20:56] <DEViUS> digitalvaldosta: use stamp under wine, its an excallant ID3 Tag editor, unless someoone here knows about an OSS-Application (alternative)
[20:56] <carandraug> digitalvaldosta: I'm not sure but I think you can do it easyTAG
[20:57] <ActionParsnip> digitalvaldosta: i dont think mp3 supports that, you can do it with something like amarok, but that uses a seperate store for the art, rather than the actual mp3 itself
[20:57] <CapaH> cat file.txt | awk '{print $1}'   <--- Only prints the VERY first line of the file. Only having this problem on my linux machine, my openbsd machine works correctly. ideas anyone?
[20:57] <ActionParsnip> digitalvaldosta: with memory based mp3 players and the like, you'd have to check how the art is stored and pander to its needs
[20:57] <carandraug> DEViUS: easyTAG is a great alternative
[20:57] <dandaman862> I have done it with Easy tag, works really good, use it with ampache.
[20:57] <DEViUS> digitalvaldosta: yes yes right use easytag thanks for that
[20:58] <rjune> anfy, no, the picture is too bad
[20:58] <anfy> rjune: mk
[20:58] <CapaH> I want it to return X lines, X being the # of lines in file.txt
[20:58] <anfy> rjune: I know they are xeons, just not sure what vintage
[20:58] <ValentineXX> why skype team do not provide skype 3 for ubuntu?
[20:58] <ActionParsnip> CapaH: are they at the top or bottom of the file?
[20:58] <rjune> anfy, is a fine picture, but not enough resolution to really id them
[20:58] <ActionParsnip> ValentineXX: ask them
[20:59] <anfy> rjune: it's off of craigslist, cant get any higher res
[20:59] <DEViUS> ActionParsnip: lol
[20:59] <CapaH> ActionParsnip, Every line of the file :)
[20:59] <ValentineXX> ActionParsnip: they have irc channel?
[20:59] <digitalvaldosta> Devius, is easytag in the repos?
[20:59] <psyjoniz> ActionParsnip : works in bios.  and interestingly, it works on the gnome login screen - but once i get in, nada.
[20:59] <DEViUS> digitalvaldosta: yes it is there
[20:59] <ActionParsnip> ValentineXX: dunno, you could email them and ask
[20:59] <DEViUS> digitalvaldosta: yes it is there                             sudo apt-get install easytag
[20:59] <digitalvaldosta> ok I will try it out real quick and let y'all know what success I have.
[21:00] <digitalvaldosta> Thanks everyone
[21:00] <omeneek> Hi, does anyone know how to change default paths from places menu?
[21:00] <DEViUS> digitalvaldosta: np
[21:00] <DEViUS> omeneek: default paths for what plz be more specific
[21:01] <heret1c> Does anyone use gmobilemedia?
[21:01] <omeneek> DEViUS: Documents, Music etc - those from places menu
[21:01] <DEViUS> omeneek: do you want to add a place or change their location
[21:01] <fosco_> omeneek: you can use ubuntu-tweak to change that
[21:02] <mastershihochief> I am having an apache2 problem. I just dropped files in /var/www to use for an online game. The moment i play the web base game and it goes to use the image pack, the system slows down to a crawl and wont respond. I can go through localhost and browse all the files no problem, and the system doesnt hang while apache service is running, but whenever i go to the game page, the system hangs and lag really badly
[21:02] <mastershihochief> http://textsnip.com/b2474f <<< my ps aux
[21:02] <ActionParsnip> CapaH: well if you wanna see a nmber of lines from a file would they be at the start or end or ni the middle?
[21:02] <malaka> hello
[21:02] <omeneek> DEViUS: change location, addin is easy
[21:02] <mastershihochief> both my cpus are at 100% when my problem occurs, but the processes doesnt show that much cpu usage
[21:03] <DEViUS> omeneek: emm am not sure, sry
[21:03] <DEViUS> omeneek: let me search around
[21:04] <kristian1> can anyone mention a good online port scanner?
[21:04] <OsamaK> !bot
[21:04] <LjL> kristian1: that doesn't sound like an Ubuntu related question to me
[21:04] <fosco_> kristian1: i use nmap from command line
[21:05] <rjune> kristian1, there are nmap based web interfaces
[21:05] <heret1c> kristian1: wireshark?
[21:05] <kristian1> LjL : yeah, sorry about that.
[21:05] <ActionParsnip> kristian1: nmap
[21:05] <LjL> kristian1: try #ubuntu-offtopic
[21:05] <DEViUS> heret1c: wireshark isnt a port scanner
[21:05] <LjL> (did you all miss the "online" part?)
[21:05] <kristian1> LjL : will do.
[21:06] <kristian1> thanks everyone else, will try nmap and wireshark\
[21:06] <rjune> LjL, nope, hence the reason I ponted him to a web based nmap
[21:06] <DEViUS> kristian1: wireshark isnt a port scanner
[21:06] <maco> kristian1: wireshark is like a GUI to tcpdump
[21:06] <heret1c> DEViUS: ah. thought I saw that function in it.
[21:06] <ActionParsnip> !info wireshark
[21:06] <LjL> rjune: right, you were the only one though...
[21:07] <digitalvaldosta> Devius, easytag was basically what I was asking for. But is there one that is more automatic like Rhythmbox is?
[21:07] <rjune> LjL, it helps to read the question. :-)
[21:07] <DEViUS> kristian1: i doubt that
[21:07] <DEViUS> kristian1: sry wrong person
[21:08] <lesshaste> is there a graphical traceroute app?
[21:08] <LjL> lesshaste: yeah, xtraceroute is one
[21:08] <DEViUS> digitalvaldosta: i doubt
[21:08] <lesshaste> LjL,
[21:08] <lesshaste> thanks
[21:08] <LjL> lesshaste: it also depends what you mean by "graphical" (*geo*graphical or not)
[21:08] <DEViUS> digitalvaldosta: unless you go foe non-oss app's and am as well (unsure)
[21:08] <psyjoniz> Does anyone know why left and down arrows would not repeat when held down?  up and right work fine.  left and down do what they are supposed to they just don't repeat.
[21:09] <ActionParsnip> lesshaste: why would you need it, its just gonna put the output in a box, like a terminal
[21:09] <lesshaste> LjL, geographical but xtraceroute doesn't seem to be htere
[21:09] <LjL> lesshaste: ah by the way, the package name for xtraceroute is xt
[21:09] <lesshaste> ActionParsnip, a pic would be nice
[21:09] <ActionParsnip> lesshaste: pic of what?
[21:09] <lesshaste> LjL, ah thanks
[21:09] <LjL> ActionParsnip: install xt and see
[21:09] <digitalvaldosta> :S well guess i will look for the creator of the app 'easytag' and suggest it to them. thanks again. (I only do open source. Proprietary is now the coaster for my softdrink)
[21:09] <lesshaste> ActionParsnip, of the hops taken
[21:10] <ActionParsnip> LjL: installing now
[21:10] <DEViUS> digitalvaldosta: lol
[21:10] <mastershihochief> lol
[21:11]  * digitalvaldosta is now leaving.
[21:11] <LjL> lesshaste: i knew of another one with a possibly cuter interface (and perhaps more update geolocation data), but i honestly can't remember what it was - not something in the repos anyway
[21:11] <DEViUS> lesshaste: i would say use                   http://visualiptrace.visualware.com/                    online and geo........
[21:11] <lesshaste> LjL, I am trying xt now.. it doesn't seem to work yet but we shall see
[21:12] <LjL> lesshaste, the database it uses is old, try a few addresses
[21:12] <ph0rensic_> Hi All
[21:13] <ActionParsnip> LjL: this is god slow

[21:18] <sluimers> Hi, I just bought a VB8001 mini-itx motherboard and now when I try to get to the login screen the computer crashes, what could cause that?
[21:18] <Slade605> Hey guys, I am having some issue file sharing a folder on a HD that is NTFS, it's setup in /media/Media/music, and I did sudo chmod 777 music while in that directory, no errors, but it won't let me share it, any suggestions?
[21:18] <ph0rensic> sluimers: What do you mean it crashes? is it just not going to an x screen??
[21:18] <ActionParsnip> sluimers: boot to failsafe and check dmesg
[21:18] <Ace2016_> well my internet connection to the US has been slow
[21:19] <DEViUS> looool everyone back on
[21:19] <ph0rensic> Slade605: You ar tryin to share it over the network or what?
[21:19] <Ace2016_> my god that was a huge net split, my irc app is freezing as i type, the text is scrolling so fast, sure are a lot of users here
[21:19] <LjL-Simmons> lesshaste: (resending, not sure you got it due to the netsplit) lesshaste: however, it seems to use a separate script for determining an address's location (/usr/share/xtraceroute/xtraceroute-resolve-location.sh), so you might tweak that script to use other GeoIP services
[21:19] <sluimers> ph0rensic, yes and I also cannot go to any other terminal prompt
[21:20] <lesshaste> LjL-Simmons, that is very interesting.. so I need to find a good geoip service
[21:20] <kushalsejwal> hello everybody, I am using hardy, dont want to upgrade to intrepid but want the lastest gnome 2.24. How can I do so?
[21:20] <Slade605> ph0rensic:  yeah, I want to use it for my laptop
[21:20] <LjL-Simmons> ActionParsnip: it shouldn't be especially slow, not more than "traceroute" (which is what it uses as a backend, anyway). it will easily be slower than "tracepath" though
[21:20] <DEViUS> kushalsejwal: just upgrade gnome
[21:20] <kushalsejwal>  DEViUS: How?
[21:20] <LjL-Simmons> lesshaste: there are a couple geoip libraries (apt-cache search geoip will give you the ones that are actually called geoip ;) in the repos
[21:21] <emilien> need help - booted up live cd got to login screen and it asking or password
[21:21] <sluimers> ActionParsnip, I can dmesg in a terminal prompt
[21:22] <ph0rensic> sluimers: Have you checked your config files to make sure it is allowing the access?
[21:22] <ActionParsnip> sluimers: then pipe it into less an have a read
[21:23] <Gnea> I'm following some directions here: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=1850156  and when I `sudo checkinstall make install`, it doesn't work and tries to think that the default install path is /usr/local, but there's no place to set that (the ./configure script doesn't accept the --prefix argument), has anyone else done this or know if the ubuntu-method of making .deb files has changed in the past couple of years?
[21:23] <sluimers> ActionParsnip, I'm not that linux savvy, what should I look for?
[21:23] <jannott> Sweet netsplit :)
[21:24] <ActionParsnip> sluimers: just any sort of errors or warning
[21:24] <sluimers> ph0rensic, which config files should I look into?
[21:24] <BwaddArr> are 3 floodbots really necessary? lol
[21:24] <ph0rensic> Slade605: Did you check the config files?
[21:24] <ph0rensic> sluimers: sorry i wrote that to the wrong person
[21:24] <ActionParsnip> sluimers: you could try booting to recovery and repairing xorg.conf to see if its better some
[21:25] <emilien> need help - booted up live cd got to login screen and it asking for password but iv not even installed yet ... ALT F1 get " loading , please wait"
[21:25] <ph0rensic> ActionParsnip: sudo dpkg reconfigure xserver-xorg maybe???
[21:25] <Gnea> BwaddArr: what's more necessary: 3 flood bots or asking 1000 people to just up and leave? :)
[21:25] <kristian1> installed ubuntu yesterday. installed it to one hd(80gb), but i cant find the other hd (200gb) via ubuntu. what shall i do?
[21:25] <Gnea> emilien: what did you try putting in for the password?
[21:26] <BwaddArr> Gnea, lol I guess so :)
[21:26] <emilien> Gnea: root - toor ; guest
[21:26] <ActionParsnip> ph0rensic: that'll do it. theres an option in the recovery mode for that but if he's got a terminal up then yeah that'll do it
[21:26] <scotlfs> I have an interesting problem....I created a USB startup disk, but I don't like it and I want to start over, however I have lost access to the portion that was previously assigned...how do I get access back so I can create a new usb startup disk ?
[21:26] <Gnea> emilien: what about ubuntu, <none>?
[21:27]  * sluimers boots in recovery
[21:27] <ActionParsnip> !usb | scotlfs
[21:27] <emilien> Gnea: never tried that will do
[21:27] <scotlfs> actionparsnip, does that address my problem, I didn't think it did
[21:27] <zap> Hello people! How do I install the package openoffice.org-l10n-ru via the GUI installer?
[21:28] <slestak> one user on one of my 3-4 intrepid workstations is having focus problems with gnome
[21:28] <slestak> i have already disabled compiz for the user and deleted ~/.compiz
[21:28] <ActionParsnip> scotlfs: do you want to create a bootable usb stick?
[21:29] <slestak> and rebooted.  i can only get focus by selecting titlebar, clicking anywhere else on window will not gain focus
[21:29] <Gnea> I'm following some directions here: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=1850156  and when I `sudo checkinstall make install`, it doesn't work and tries to think that the default install path is /usr/local, but there's no place to set that (the ./configure script doesn't accept the --prefix argument), has anyone else done this or know if the ubuntu-method of making .deb files has changed in the past couple of years?
[21:29] <sluimers> ActionParsnip, I've rebooted in recovery mode
[21:29] <scotlfs> actionparsnip: I created one already, problem is I don't like it, and I want to start over...I can't because the portion of the usb drive I used is not inaccessible
[21:29] <sluimers> ActionParsnip, chosen fix the x server
[21:29] <scotlfs> s/not/now
[21:29] <zap> is it possible to see somehow the hidden packages in the GUI installer? There are lots of packages not seen
[21:30] <sluimers> ActionParsnip, and I am now what I think is supposed to be the login screen
[21:30] <ActionParsnip> scotlfs: then you can run sudo fdisk -l and format the partition so it it blank, is that what you mean?
[21:30] <rytmenpinnen> Hey, I have the LBP-810 printer, I've searched the net but couldn't find much am I out of luck so speak? :/
[21:30] <me1> reconnect
[21:30] <DEViUS> who cares
[21:30] <mebus> jep should keep talking about ubuntu
[21:30] <mebus> there we go
[21:30] <Ace2016_> this is a parallel #ubuntu where the rules don't apply
[21:30] <DEViUS> tada
[21:30] <me1> HA! told ya so
[21:30] <Ace2016_> damn, now they do
[21:30] <DEViUS> now this is the real ubuntu

[21:39] <n8tuser> lexvegas-> you mean you go beyond 10 feet and you can not detect the signal of your AP? is this bluetooth?

[21:40] <lexvegas> i was able to connect perfectly when i was running windows, but now i can't connect properly
[21:40] <ActionParsnip> lexvegas: try a different driver
[21:40] <lexvegas> how do you do that?
[21:41] <Gnea> cockneysean: you'll need to read the documentation that came with your ircd
[21:41] <lexvegas> is there a tutorial that you know of?
[21:41] <cockneysean> thats not what i asked is it?
[21:41] <n8tuser> lexvegas-> are you using a usb dongle fo ryou wifi?
[21:41] <n8tuser> lexvegas-> are you using a usb dongle for your wifi?
[21:41] <lexvegas> no, internal card
[21:41] <Gnea> cockneysean: how is it ubuntu-related?
[21:41] <ActionParsnip> lexvegas: run lspci or lsusb depending on how it connects and websearch how to configure it

[21:43] <occy> are there any disk check tools, that come with the Ubuntu disk (live CD) that allow you to check your windows drive to make sure that nothing is wrong with it?  I want to dualboot, but... I think there is something wrong with my windows setup.
[21:43] <occy> I can boot the live CD just fine
[21:43] <Jack_Sparrow> cockneysean Did you add any repos in order to be able to apt-get ircd?
[21:43] <mastershihochief> occy: did u try windows recovery disk?
[21:43] <cockneysean> The question is, once I have installed ircd on my ubuntu 8.04 setup, it is running fine, but I am not an op on my own server. If someone could tell me what I need to configure to be op/admin on my server that would be great. tia
[21:44] <Jack_Sparrow> cockneysean And... Did you add any repos in order to be able to apt-get ircd?
[21:44] <kristian1> can someone please tell me the #ubuntu channel for discussion on other things than ubuntu again?
[21:44] <cockneysean> no

[21:45] <Gnea> cockneysean: first of all, you've failed to mention exactly which ircd you installed. second, did it come with a /usr/share/doc/<something>-ircd/  directory? *USUALLY* there is a README or something in there that explains how to administer your ircd.
[21:45] <mastershihochief> occy: did u hit r at the welcome screen, when u put your xp disc in? This will put you into recovery mode and allow you to start command prompt and do chkdsk /r

[21:59] <ActionParsnip> hi Censer
[22:00] <NeT_DeMoN> richo1
[22:00] <rww> slestak: if you issue those commands ActionParsnip gave you, they'll prompt you with a list of package to be removed before they remove anything
[22:00] <Jack_Sparrow> malcom2073 mounting is usually automatic, but windows drives can get locked by a bad umount (even from windows) and need to be force mounted
[22:00] <slestak> k, tyvm guys
[22:00] <NeT_DeMoN> what the hell
[22:01] <malcom2073> Jack_Sparrow, : these are NTFS drives, but even on a regular reboot, ubuntu isnt remounting them
[22:01] <malcom2073> I'
[22:01] <Jack_Sparrow> !force
[22:01] <malcom2073> I'll just add them to the fstab file
[22:01] <mastershihochief> i had a similar problem
[22:01] <nbeebo> how do i set xchat to use firefox on links?
[22:01] <nbeebo> #cad
[22:01] <Jack_Sparrow> malcom2073 sudo mkdir /media/locked-drive then sudo mount -t ntfs-3g /dev/sda1 /media/locked-drive -o force  substitute your locked drive for sda1

[22:02] <LjL> !fishing | nbeebo
[22:02] <keres_> why is this?
[22:02] <Censer> I've got just a simple question(perhaps noob question): Why can't i join #ubuntu-de?
[22:02] <LjL> nbeebo: how about you look at my !equivalents link, or for that matter you "apt-cache search cad | grep CAD"
[22:02] <keres_> every time i try to move a file/folder in /home/keres/games/ it always says permission denied.
[22:02] <keres_> why is this?
[22:02] <rww> keres_: probably that directory isn't owned by you. Try sudo chown -R keres:keres /home/keres/games/
[22:02] <Jack_Sparrow> !repeat > keres_
[22:02] <macjason0607> http://paste.ubuntu.com/83168/ < -- will this work ?
[22:02] <n8tuser> keres_-> have you done any tutorials yet on file ownership in linux?
[22:03] <malcom2073> Jack_Sparrow: And that will auto-remount them on reboot?
[22:03] <jolter> Censer: /j ubuntu-de
[22:03] <nbeebo> ljl, yeah did so, trying to join a #cad channel to ask for the most simple 3d software to design a room...
[22:03] <ActionParsnip> keres_: try sudo chown -R <your user name> /home/<your user name>
[22:03] <rww> keres_: explanation: sudo makes the command run with administrator privilages, chown CHanges OWNer, -R does it for all directories in the place you specify, keres:keres is the user:group to change it to
[22:03] <Jack_Sparrow> malcom2073 It will clear a lock.. which SHOULD let them automount
[22:03] <Setebos> I don't know if this is the proper place to ask but can anyone here help me stream a mp4 to my friend?
[22:03] <hwilde> are the feisty repos down?   Failed to fetch http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/universe/i/iftop/iftop_0.17-3_i386.deb  404 Not Found [IP: <IP_ADDRESS> 80]
[22:03] <Jack_Sparrow> keres_ Is that your user /home or another user on your pc
[22:03] <Censer> jolter: it says "You are banned from that channel"
[22:03] <Censer> xD
[22:04] <malcom2073> Being as I will be rebooting into windows on a regular basis, would adding them to the fstab file auto-clear them if they're locked and make sure they're mounted?
[22:04] <rww> hwilde: feisty is EOL and got removed from the archives. Use http://old-releases.ubuntu.com/ instead of us.archive.ubuntu.com.
[22:04] <jolter> Censer: well :D that explains why you cant join :D
[22:04] <natsukao> how can i mount GNU/linux on a pen usb from 1 gb with ext3 ?
[22:04] <keres_> thank you
[22:04] <rww> !usb | natsukao
[22:05] <Censer> jolter: Yes. Its just - I never was was ther before...
[22:05] <tlex> Quick question, every time i log out, or reboot, numlock gets turned off. does anyone know how to fix this?   PS it is set to on in my bios
[22:05] <spud1> ah the joys of banning
[22:05] <|{urse> tlex you can set that in your bios
[22:06] <Demios> hello, I'm having a problem with my cdrom drive, first, it seems like it attempts to mount cds twice. The second time, giving me an error stating that I don't have permission at it's read only or something. I also cannot seem to burn cds
[22:06] <tlex> it is set to be on in my bios
[22:06] <cmv583> can anyone help me? all compiz settings are enable, still no cube?
[22:06] <Demios> brasero tells me every blank cd I put in has 0 bytes available
[22:06] <|{urse> thats odd tlex, lemme google that
[22:06] <tlex> thanks
[22:06] <ActionParsnip> cmv583: have you ran: compiz --replace & 2>/dev/null
[22:06] <|{urse> whats your mobo model?
[22:07] <cmv583> ActionParsnip: no not yet
[22:07] <jolter> Censer: ok well then you might as well stay here :)
[22:07] <ActionParsnip> cmv583: thats why then
[22:07] <JohnE> hey, I haven't installed ubuntu in a while, but last time I did, it was a pain that the install disk was a cdrom, and I had to download a lot of files after that
[22:07] <nbeebo> whats the most easy-to-use cad-like program? cant find anything good on linux, or does someone know any good channel to ask that?
[22:07] <ActionParsnip> JohnE: windows is identical
[22:08] <CelticLord> nuit!!
[22:08] <JohnE> what does that mean ActionParsnip ?
[22:08] <ActionParsnip> JohnE: the cd has the latest files at the time but updates will then need installing
[22:08] <|{urse> tlex try this https://help.ubuntu.com/community/NumLock
[22:08] <Censer> jolter: right... its just that i cant explain my problem very well...
[22:08] <tlex> ok thanks
[22:08] <JohnE> ok, but opensuse has a 4GB dvd full of rpms
[22:08] <|{urse> ^^ lemme know if it worked
[22:08] <JohnE> why can't I get a large version of ubuntu?
[22:08] <cmv583> ActionParsnip: not sure what happened. u want result? will that help
[22:09] <Mythril> I've installed sql-ledger package, now how do I use it?
[22:09] <JohnE> for that matter, can I just locally host a 20GB repository or something, so I can do local installs faster?
[22:09] <Jack_Sparrow> JohnE yes, easy to do
[22:09] <DasEi>  macjason0607:diskfree
[22:09] <ActionParsnip> cmv583: well you arent running compiz until you run that command, you can configure all you want but if its not running, the settings dont do anything
[22:09] <rww> JohnE: which version of Ubuntu do you want a DVD for? Intrepid?
[22:09] <Jack_Sparrow> JohnE it is around 6 dvd's
[22:09] <|{urse> yes JohnE or you can look into using partimage over the network
[22:10] <JohnE> this all sounds good
[22:10] <|{urse> kind of like a ghostcast server
[22:10] <Jack_Sparrow> JohnE the inrepid dvd inclueds the repo "Main"
[22:10] <|{urse> if you are familiar with that
[22:10] <JohnE> I'm not too familiar with ubuntu, I come from opensuse
[22:11] <JohnE> i have a centos server locally, and some laptops I want to put hardy and intrepid on
[22:11] <cmv583> ActionParsnip:  thanx, still no cube?
[22:11] <ActionParsnip> JohnE: i'd use the system as is til you get comfy with it, then start getting deeper
[22:11] <nbeebo> whats the most easy-to-use cad-like program? cant find anything good on linux, or does someone know any good channel to ask that?
[22:11] <DefunctProcess> Jack_Sparrow, you're a smart guy, do you have any suggestions for an online resource that will explain in newb friendly terms how to compile a custom kernel with built-in drivers?
[22:11] <JohnE> can I start some download to the centos server, and then use partimage scp from the centos server?
[22:11] <ph0rensic> nbeebo: Did you think if cad works on wine?
[22:11] <Jack_Sparrow> DefunctProcess nope
[22:11] <rww> JohnE: Intrepid DVDs are at http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/releases/intrepid/release/ . Hardy DVDs are at http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/releases/hardy/release/ . Either way, you're going to end up downloading a bunch of updates, so a local repository might be a smarter idea.
[22:11] <ActionParsnip> cmv583: are you using ctrl+alt+ mouse 1?
[22:12] <JohnE> yeah, I think a repository mirror sounds smarter
[22:12] <malcom2073> Ok another question: Anyone know of a good place to get ATI video card drivers for ubuntu? both the manufacturer 'fglrx' drivers and drivers that come with ubuntu have issues with visual effects so I have to turn them off (which isnt fun). Are there any others?
[22:12] <JohnE> I have a TB on my server
[22:12] <|{urse> JohnE ive never used centos but im sure you can compile partimage and write a small script for it
[22:12] <|{urse> very easy
[22:13] <ActionParsnip> cmv583: make sure you have 4 viewpors in your settings too
[22:13] <nbeebo> ph0rensic, theres lots of cad programs on linux
[22:14] <nbeebo> how to open links with firefox on xchat? cant find it in the settings
[22:14] <cmv583> ActionParsnip:  not sure what u mean?
[22:14] <DasEi> nbeebo: go back ot , I' ll look now
[22:15] <malcom2073> nbeebo: Perhaps make firefox your "default" browser?
[22:15] <balau> nbeebo, ctrl+click on the link
[22:15] <sav1o> hi, how does the package manager deals with different compilation flags? I mean, for example, if I want to run 'directfb' compile with '--enable-sdl', or even if I want to have '--enable-debug', how can I procede?
[22:16] <nbeebo> dasei, sorry i dont understand, malcom2073 i think i do, havent installed any other browser on ubuntu desktop, balau ok good to know thanks
[22:16] <malcom2073> nbeebo: in firefox, edit -> preferences, advanced tab, at the bottom "Check Now" I think will let you set it as default if it's no
[22:16] <malcom2073> Just a thought heh
[22:16] <ActionParsnip> cmv583: ok in ccsm, go to general options
[22:16] <nbeebo> malcom2073 thanks, it was
[22:17] <malcom2073> well then I'm out of ideas atm :( sorry heh
[22:17] <msivanich> is the regular driver module for ATI cards ati?
[22:17] <nbeebo> malcom2073 ;_; no problem lol
[22:17] <ActionParsnip> cmv583: and set horizontal size under the desktop size tab to 3 or 4
[22:17] <rww> msivanich: depends on your card. some use ati, some use radeon, some use radeonhd, if i remember correctly
[22:18] <DasEi> nbeebo: http://paste.ubuntu.com/83173/
[22:18] <msivanich> rww: radion hd 2600
[22:18] <B3z3rk3r> hey rww nice to see you back
[22:18] <malcom2073> rww:  Are there any others places to get ATI drives besides the ones that come with ubuntu, and the "proprietary" drives you can get from ati?
[22:18] <malcom2073> like third party drives
[22:18] <malcom2073> drivers*
[22:19] <nxmehta> is there a way to print out the list of flags used to compile the ubuntu kernel?
[22:19] <ActionParsnip> malcom2073: you could try envyng-gtk
[22:19] <malcom2073> k I'll give that a try, neither the ubuntu or ati drivers work :-/
[22:19] <rww> malcom2073: the only places I'd recommend getting ATI drivers is from the repos. Try the ones I listed above, or fglrx (which is also in the repos).
[22:19] <nbeebo> dasei, thanks alot ill try all of that
[22:19] <cmv583> ActionParsnip:  no cube just cylinder
[22:20] <rww> malcom2073, msivanich: but lots of other people know more than me about ati drivers. I just use radeon and put up with it :)
[22:20] <mastershihochief> im having an apache 2 problem making my entire system stop responding, can some one please help me?
[22:20] <scotlfs> !usb
[22:20] <malcom2073> Heh hear hear putting up with it
[22:20] <Sweetandy> What's the plan for Ubuntu and OOo3?
[22:20] <ActionParsnip> cmv583: yeah i got that. i think its funny. not sure, least you got it working some, i'd ask in #compiz
[22:20] <n8tuser2> mastershihochief-> can you get to a console  ctrl+alt+F1 ?
[22:21] <Sweetandy> I don't see it in Jaunty even
[22:21] <solus> hi, i'm using the broadcom sta drivers with 8.10 and it was working fine a few days ago but lately I can't connect wirelessly
[22:21] <DasEi> nbeebo: xchat opens the default browser of your sys, unles you not cópy the url manually, so got to set your default browser
[22:21] <solus> i have wpa on the router
[22:21] <B3z3rk3r> Sweetandy: we should be seeing it in the next RC
[22:21] <malcom2073> envyng-qt is the only one avail, apparently they don't have a gtk version out yet? O_o
[22:21] <nDuff> mastershihochief, that's a lot of vagueness. Could you give more detail? How do you know it's an Apache problem?
[22:21] <rww> Sweetandy: Officially? It's not going to be in intrepid (except maybe in backports). It will be in jaunty.
[22:21] <mastershihochief> ya
[22:21] <|{urse> oh yeah i forgot to ask what i came here for.. are there any other compositing wm's besides xcompmgr that i can use with openbox?
[22:21] <ActionParsnip> malcom2073: try tab completing after envyng
[22:21] <malcom2073> Yeah I did ActionParsnip, I got it saying "is envyng-qt installed?" when I typed envyng-gtk
[22:21] <malcom2073> lol
[22:22] <msivanich> rww: yeah i dont need any special effects just trying to set up a 2 video card setup 1-nvidia 1-ati card.  Trying to set up my xorg.conf file hoping to have seperate x sessions
[22:22] <malcom2073> I can live with qt though
[22:22] <rww> oh hey, the OO3 PPA is back up :)
[22:22] <solus> do any of you have broadcom wireless cards and are using wpa?
[22:22] <mastershihochief> n8tuser: yes i can ctrl+alt+f1
[22:22] <cmv583> ActionParsnip: thanx. new to ubuntu how do i go to #compiz?
[22:22] <solus> and intrepid
[22:22] <Jack_Sparrow> cmv  /j #Channelname
[22:22] <truebosko> Hi there. My USB printer was working fine but all of a sudden it stopped working after trying to print something else. It's detected in my Printers, and print jobs are sent to the queue but it just hangs at "processing"
[22:22] <ActionParsnip> malcom2073: you could try qt, you will install qt libs but if you dont mind the bloat go for it, it might be too bad
[22:23] <malcom2073> Jack_Sparrow: /join #channelname   the RFC dosent not specify that alias must be defined :P
[22:23] <|{urse> /join
[22:23] <malcom2073> ActionParsnip: I write in qt, so I already have the libs :P
[22:23] <truebosko> running /etc/init.d/cups status returns: cupsd is running .. so I'm at a loss at what could be wrong. any tiops?
[22:23] <Jack_Sparrow> malcom2073 What?
[22:23] <mastershihochief> nduff: whenever i go to sites where i am loading images from my localhost my system stops
[22:23] <ActionParsnip> malcom2073: then: sudo apt-get install envyng-qt && gksudo envyng-qt
[22:23] <nbeebo> DasEi, firefox were default, and i tried xdg-open 'http://www.google.com' and it opened in firefox, so i guess ill live with ctrl+click.. well thanks alot for ur help! :D
[22:23] <lesshaste> how do I update from hardy to intrepid?
[22:23] <malcom2073> Yeah I got it, running now
[22:23] <rww> !upgrade | lesshaste
[22:24] <lesshaste> thx
[22:24] <Jack_Sparrow> lesshaste You must go through gutsy to do it
[22:24] <graft> yo what is the gnome pdf viewer called?
[22:24] <ActionParsnip> lesshaste: i'd suggest the server method via cli
[22:24] <Aggro> I have LTSP server and I would like to use old laptop as LTSP client. Problem is the PCMCIA network adapter, which is not recogniced by Etherboot boot disk. Netboot might be one option, but I failed to understand how it is used. Can anyone help?
[22:24] <lesshaste> Jack_Sparrow, no :)
[22:24] <malcom2073> The only ATI driver it shows, I have and is enabled apparently
[22:24] <B3z3rk3r> lesshaste: you can just use the built in update manger from Ubuntu
[22:24] <DasEi> nbeebo: keep the nights long :D
[22:24] <|{urse> any other compositing wm's besides xcompmgr that i can use with openbox?
[22:24] <ActionParsnip> graft: gpdf or xpdf
[22:24] <lesshaste> Jack_Sparrow, g, h, i
[22:24] <malcom2073> Jack_Sparrow: Sorry I was nitpicking, :P
[22:24] <nbeebo> dasei, :D
[22:24] <rww> lesshaste: I think Jack_Sparrow had a brain fart ;)
[22:24] <cmv583> Jacksparrow: where do i enter that?
[22:25] <mastershihochief> lol
[22:25] <Jack_Sparrow> yep..
[22:25] <lesshaste> rww,  no problem :0
[22:25] <lesshaste> :)
[22:25] <nbeebo> anyone know the name of the program that splits the terminal in half?
[22:25] <graft> ActionParsnip: nope, it's something else... the "Document Viewer" thing?
[22:25] <Jack_Sparrow> cmv583 right on this line
[22:25] <rww> nbeebo: screen
[22:25] <|{urse> nbeebo terminator
[22:25] <evilgnome> terminator?
[22:25] <|{urse> oh yeah
[22:25] <malcom2073> ok, so apparently I already have the envyng driver, and it has problems too
[22:25] <nDuff> mastershihochief, ...interesting. Other connectivity to localhost works? Have you checked for a fork bomb in a CGI or similar maliciousness?
[22:25] <ActionParsnip> graft: i'd use xpdf personally, its nice and light. do you mean ghostview
[22:25] <graft> ActionParsnip: no, it's definitely a gnome app
[22:25] <|{urse> fork bomb makes sense nDuff, i was gonna say thatr]
[22:26] <Sweetandy> kk thanks
[22:26] <ActionParsnip> graft: then thats all i got, maybe someone else can help
[22:26] <mastershihochief> nDuff, i have only used linux for 8 days now i dont know what that is XD. I just installed it yesterday so i could use graphics packs on a web based game
[22:26] <nDuff> mastershihochief, It might be interesting to have htop already running (and apache at a very low priority) while you trigger the problem
[22:26] <mastershihochief> how do i do that
[22:26] <sluimers> ActionParsnip, at really low resolution I can a very twisted login screen, vertical black lines and colours all wrong
[22:26] <graft> anyone? the GNOME pdf viewer, what's it called?
[22:26] <evilgnome> evince
[22:26] <evilgnome> graft: it's evince
[22:26] <malcom2073> So, nobody else knows of any other ATI drivers than the open source repo ones, and the ATI proprietary ones?
[22:26] <sluimers> ActionParsnip, at really low resolution I can a see very twisted login screen, vertical black lines and colours all wrong
[22:27] <Jack_Sparrow> graft I used kpdf as the default seemed slower to me
[22:27] <nbeebo> rww, nope not it, |{urse and evilgnome, thanks, ill recommend it to the mate who asked for it
[22:27] <graft> evilgnome: ah thankee
[22:27] <ActionParsnip> sluimers: are the gfx onboard or is it a card?
[22:27] <malcom2073> It's a card
[22:27] <sluimers> ActionParsnip, onboard
[22:27] <malcom2073> oh
[22:27] <malcom2073> not asking me
[22:27] <nDuff> mastershihochief, that's a bit more involved than I can walk a complete noob through right now, unfortunately -- I'm at work, and so need to be getting at least some level of productivity.
[22:27] <malcom2073> lol sorry
[22:27] <FloodBot1> malcom2073: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[22:27] <graft> Jack_Sparrow: you still using 3.5.9/10?
[22:27] <ActionParsnip> sluimers: can you boot to livecd ok?
[22:27] <B3z3rk3r> malcom2073: think you are out of luck m8, not so many ppl working on them likethe nvidia ones.
[22:28] <malcom2073> Yeah, I knew I should've switched to nvidia before buying this $500 pos :-/
[22:28] <Jack_Sparrow> graft which app?
[22:28] <|{urse> malcom2073, did you try envy like suggested?>
[22:28] <malcom2073> Kurse: yes
[22:28] <graft> Jack_Sparrow: kpdf... or do you mean okular?
[22:28] <bjm101> ok je suis la
[22:28] <|{urse> oh what exactly are you needing to do?
[22:28] <sluimers> ActionParsnip, nope, don't have a cd/dvd-writer
[22:28] <graft> Jack_Sparrow: starting up kde libs stuff is always slow on my lappy from gnome...
[22:28] <rww> !fr | bjm101
[22:28] <truebosko> When dealing with printers for my device URL, what should it point to roughly? Right now it says usb://Lexmark 1200 Series but something tells me this is incorrect.
[22:28] <ActionParsnip> sluimers: do you have the cd you installed with?
[22:29] <B3z3rk3r> malcom2073: yeah, in future nvidia is the way to go.. they simply ahve better support for their products
[22:29] <malcom2073> I'm trying to figure out why I can't use the "Extra" visual effects without all 3d windows going borked
[22:29] <Jack_Sparrow> graft It wasnt slow to come up, just lagged while flipping pages
[22:29] <|{urse> yeah nvidia is great(er)
[22:29] <B3z3rk3r> malcom2073: what card do u have?
[22:29] <malcom2073> X1950 Crossfire
[22:29] <bjm101> voila ma carte audio est "00:1b.0 Audio device: Intel Corporation 82801H (ICH8 Family) HD Audio Controller"
[22:29] <|{urse> malcolm what model of ati?
[22:29] <malcom2073> ^^ Radeon X1950 Crossfire edition
[22:29] <sluimers> ActionParsnip, I installed ubuntu via a usb-stick, why?
[22:29] <B3z3rk3r> malcom2073: hmm...
[22:30] <|{urse> i can paste u my xorg.conf im using that card with the restricted driver
[22:30] <B3z3rk3r> malcom2073: have u tried the forums?
[22:30] <evilgnome> does anyone know why with the latest updates, emerald no longer provides a /usr/bin/emerald executable? I have emerald installed (and reinstalled), but according to dpkg -L it only added documentation...
[22:30] <aboucher> what is a good vm for ubuntu hardy
[22:30] <|{urse> did wonders
[22:30] <rww> !vm | aboucher
[22:30] <ActionParsnip> sluimers: can you boot to recovery console aqnd run lspci | grep -i vga
[22:30] <rww> !fr > bjm101
[22:30] <evilgnome> aboucher: virtualbox is my recommendation
[22:30] <malcom2073> Windows drivers have even always been a bit flaky, so I really shouldn't be shocked that linux drivers are too :-/. I'm really not concerned enough with it to use the forums, I can just use no visual effects when I want to run anything 3d
[22:30] <ActionParsnip> sluimers: it will tell yuo the vga card, maybe you can set it up in cli then boot to gui
[22:30] <aboucher> !Virtual Box
[22:31] <ActionParsnip> !virtualbox | aboucher
[22:31] <aboucher> !VirtualBox
[22:31] <Jack_Sparrow> !info vbox

[22:31] <B3z3rk3r> malcom2073: true, but would u rather ahve wobbly windows?  :P
[22:31] <malcom2073> I kinda would :P. I mean come on, I have this powerful computer, and in linux I'm just plain not using the power :(
[22:31] <sluimers> ActionParsnip, VGA compatible controller: VIA ttechnologies, Inc. Chrome9 HC IGP (rev 01)
[22:32] <rww> malcom2073: go run BOINC or Folding@Home or something if you need to be using all your power :P
[22:32] <malcom2073> Lol
[22:32] <graft> malcom2073: the radeon drivers are just borked
[22:32] <ohcrapitsgone> Ok problem.... I had vista installed on my computer and just installed Ubuntu but grub never found my Vista install and I can only get to linux. What menu entry for grub do I use to boot vista?
[22:32] <malcom2073> graft: yeah, ATI is borked in general
[22:32] <graft> malcom2073: i assume you tried fglrx?
[22:32] <malcom2073> Yep
[22:32] <Mythril> why does firefox use non-default programs to open files I have downloaded?
[22:33] <rww> Mythril: Edit > Preferences > Applications from Firefox
[22:33] <graft> malcom2073: well, i got a new dell desktop, and it works perfectly there, but my laptop has always been flaky... just never bothered to fix the driver for the older, obscure chips
