[18:47] <invaderjonny42> no
[18:47] <Maletor> ctmjr: I have the newest drivers from the website install
[18:47] <mka> invaderjonny42, are you on livecd?
[18:47] <edbian> ffission6, You can run the entire ubuntu OS from the CD (instead of from a HDD like you would normally run an OS).  You can use all the tools and everything, you can even install packages.    Understand?
[18:47] <baldaris> dnivra, thanks bro..
[18:47] <invaderjonny42> i used some ubuntu liveusb cinstaller tool (actually what it called)
[18:48] <edbian> mka, He's running from a usb drive
[18:48] <invaderjonny42> mka, on liveusb
[18:48] <jpds> Xfact: Nothing is ever completely secure anyway.
[18:48] <dnivra> baldaris, no problem. glad I could help out:).
[18:48] <dajasc> Is there any way to configure Ubuntu to boot other than with GRUB?
[18:48] <ctmjr> Maletor: ok by bad what do you mean choppy video ugly text?
[18:48] <ffission6> edbian why could i not writew stuff to c?
[18:48] <ffission6> not c, i mean hardisk
[18:48] <mka> invaderjonny42, for the second time, what exactly do you want to achieve, sorry to ask this over and over
[18:49] <anom01y> !FOSS
[18:49] <edbian> ffission6, You could, but you would have to mount his harddrive (not hard at all really) just takes a little linux know-how
[18:49] <Xfact> ha ha ok thanks...but most of all companies (AVG, bitdefender) even taking fat money$ for linux anti virus, :-$
[18:49] <anom01y> !foss
[18:49] <ffission6> i am going to just install wubi then uninstall
[18:49] <invaderjonny42> mka, no prob i want to be able to utilize  all of the 400 gb partition space for my /home directory not just 10gb
[18:49] <snake> is there a way to change screen resolution in terminal
[18:49] <Maletor> ctmjr: it just doesn't look good, the text is not very well anti-aliased and the graphics definitely look like they could be better
[18:49] <h4f> how do I change from gnome to KDE ?
[18:49] <invaderjonny42> should i uninstall it and reinstall it using gubi?
[18:50] <invaderjonny42> or what ever it is called
[18:50] <edbian> mka, He wants to boot from the live USB and use his linux partition on an external hdd for his /home.  Unfortunately the linux partition on that hdd just dissappeared
[18:50] <dnivra> invaderjonny42, wubi:)
[18:50] <Hurky> Hi
[18:50] <snake> is there a way to change screen resolution in terminal
[18:50] <invaderjonny42> dnivra, i should?
[18:50] <edbian> invaderjonny42, I don't suggest wubi at all for you
[18:50] <gfather> hello guys
[18:50] <edbian> invaderjonny42, Where did your linux partition go?
[18:51] <dnivra> invaderjonny42, I don't know; not following your question. just correcting you:).
[18:51] <invaderjonny42> edbian, oh ok
[18:51] <mozart373> hello????????????? if no one wants to help, please just tell me to bugger off, but this is annoying when nobody responds

[18:51] <invaderjonny42> okay i'll give you guys step by step what i did last night to hook me up
[18:51] <snake> question ill try to help
[18:51] <invaderjonny42> FIRST i backed up my external harddrive
[18:51] <protoplay> mozart373, what was the question?
[18:51] <gfather> is there any way to force a compatabile reolution ?
[18:51] <musictoto> mozart373 if anyone knows how to solve your problem they will answer. just wait and ask your question every 10 minutes
[18:51] <mozart373> I posted it about 5 minutes ago
[18:51] <mozart373> I can't get jackd running
[18:51] <mozart373> http://www.alsa-project.org/db/?f=5ad845791169f42a46d876152ff8c59e05d0b812
[18:51] <isteme> what tool do i use to check a ntfs formatted usb stick for hardware errors on ubuntu? (not filesystem errors, real hardware errors)
[18:51] <invaderjonny42> SECOND i repartitioned it gave it three
[18:51] <mozart373> here's alsa information
[18:52] <FloodBot4> mozart373: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[18:52] <invaderjonny42> one having linux 400gb
[18:52] <snake> is there a way to change screen resolution in terminal?
[18:52] <invaderjonny42> one having ps3 80gb
[18:52] <mattaius> Out of curiousity, what's the status on having grub2 use the graphical boot options?
[18:52] <ctmjr> Maletor: have you played around with nvidia-settings and changed the resolution and refresh rate there is also some settings for other things like vsync and such
[18:52] <mozart373> FloodBot4, sorry
[18:52] <Dr_Willis> snake:  the xrandr command line tools can do it
[18:52] <darthanubis> gfather, you have to get to console shutdown gdm and run nvidia-xconfig
[18:52] <protoplay> mozart373, i dont know much about sound, perhaps someone else can help
[18:52] <dnivra> mozart373, floodbot is a bot BTW
[18:52] <invaderjonny42> one having seagate freeagent 900 gb
[18:52] <gfather> darthanubis how can i do that ?
[18:52] <snake> thanks doctor ;)
[18:52] <invaderjonny42> then i downloaded and installed ubuntu on it
[18:52] <Dr_Willis> mattaius:  its a work in progress i hear. :) theres ppa;s of grub with newer features
[18:52] <mattaius> Thanks Dr Willis
[18:52] <invaderjonny42> (on the linux section)
[18:53] <invaderjonny42> and now i'm here
[18:53] <darthanubis> !nvidia ? gfather
[18:53] <invaderjonny42> mka, what did i do wrong?
[18:53] <darthanubis> !nvidia | gfather
[18:53] <gfather> thanks
[18:53] <darthanubis> np
[18:53] <mozart373> dnivra, haha, I see :-), hence the "Bot" appended to the name...
[18:53] <dnivra> mozart373, :)
[18:54] <isteme> what tool do i use to check a ntfs formatted usb stick for hardware errors on ubuntu? (not filesystem errors, real hardware errors)
[18:54] <mka> invaderjonny42, there is no way you have a linux partition on your external HDDs
[18:55] <gfather> darthanubis but how im going to do that from boot ?
[18:55] <invaderjonny42> mka, what you mean?
[18:55] <invaderjonny42> mka, all my partitions are fat32 could that have anything to do with it/.
[18:55] <invaderjonny42> ?
[18:55] <mka> invaderjonny42, might have installed linux via wubi because linux cannot be installed to fat32 or ntfs filesystem natively
[18:55] <darthanubis> gfather, I normally don't do walk through but you will need to take notes
[18:56] <invaderjonny42> mka, really the site said otherwise... but okay...
[18:56] <darthanubis> gfather, you have to hit ctrl-alt-f1 to get to console
[18:56] <gfather> thats on when grub load ?
[18:56] <invaderjonny42> mka, i used some installer tool that WAS'T Wubi or at least i don't think it was.
[18:56] <darthanubis> gfather, no, after full load
[18:57] <darthanubis> gfather, you with me?
[18:57] <gianluca> !it
[18:57] <mka> invaderjonny42, yes, the fact that your partitions are all fat32 and ntfs suggests that
[18:57] <gfather> ok , so my lc can load terminal , right ?
[18:57] <gfather> lc= lcd
[18:57] <Gnewt> I'd like to install Karmic server from USB, but it seems to have some weird issues (won't recognize the "CD-ROM", release codename not found, etc)...
[18:57] <darthanubis> gfather, yes
[18:57] <Gnewt> Help?
[18:57] <Gnewt> How do I install Karmic server from USB?
[18:57] <invaderjonny42> mka, should i repartition them and if so to what?
[18:57] <mka> invaderjonny42, yes it's probably that "installer tool" that was wubi
[18:57] <darthanubis> gfather, the key sequence I gave you will get you to a console
[18:57] <invaderjonny42> mka, and why would that matter
[18:57] <Otacon22> Hi all, i was working on the Wiimote and now when i press a key on the keyboard the mouse doesn't move!!!
[18:58] <invaderjonny42> mka, furthermore how should i install it then?
[18:58] <darthanubis> gfather, to stop gdm type sudo stop gdm or sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop
[18:58] <mka> invaderjonny42, it matters because you do not have a /home partition that you can quickly mount now to your liveusb session
[18:58] <ipatrol> Is there any way to get a package onto an offline computer?
[18:58] <darthanubis> gfather, then sudo nvidia-xconfig
[18:58] <dnivra> Gnewt, I don't know how to help you but hope this helps https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/FromUSBStick
[18:58] <mac9416> ipatrol, using packages.ubuntu.com or Keryx.
[18:58] <darthanubis> gfather, that should do it, as gdm should restart itself
[18:59] <invaderjonny42> ok should i repartition my external hardrive an make a partition called /home?
[18:59] <invaderjonny42> mka, and what format should it be/
[18:59] <invaderjonny42> mka, ?
[18:59] <Gnewt> thanks dnivra, but I followed that guide already. Installer has weird bugs that don't let it work.
[18:59] <mka> invaderjonny42, linux partitions are ext2, ext3, ext4 or reiserfs
[18:59] <ipatrol> mac9416: Tg
[18:59] <ipatrol> hx
[19:00] <mac9416> ipatrol, no prob. Let me know if you have any trouble with either.
[19:00] <anom01y> !foss
[19:00] <gfather> darthanubis thanks allot for the help , will test right now :)
[19:00] <dnivra> Gnewt, alright then. perhaps someone here might be able to help you if you pastebin the errors you get. just a suggestion that's all.
[19:00] <anom01y> !foss
[19:00] <luca> yo
[19:00] <darthanubis> gfather, come back and let me know if it worked out for you:)
[19:00] <invaderjonny42> okay how do i make one of those from windows vista cause i definitly can't do it on ubuntu seeing as repartitioning it clears the drive allong w/ the linux
[19:00] <guntbert> !botabuse | anom01y
[19:00] <MASARUwota> anon01y: debian is more free :p
[19:00] <MASARUwota> anom01y: debian is more free :p
[19:01] <darthanubis> MASARUwota, Ubuntu can be as free as Debian
[19:01] <ipatrol> How can I rename a computer?
[19:01] <anom01y> anyone here know anything about Foss drivers ?
[19:01] <invaderjonny42> mka, so I need to repartition it as ps3, linux, /home, seagate
[19:01] <guntbert> !ot | MASARUwota
[19:01] <darthanubis> ipatrol, hostname
[19:01] <MASARUwota> darthanubis: and as non-free
[19:01] <darthanubis> but that was not mentioned
[19:01] <invaderjonny42> mka, after that how do i reinstall ubuntu?
[19:01] <ipatrol> darthanubis: Is there a GUI way
[19:02] <darthanubis> ipatrol, I'm sure there is. used to be a network config. app in the system menu, it may still be in the repos
[19:02] <invaderjonny42> mka, i do have the steps correct, yes?
[19:02] <guntbert> anom01y: what is your problem?
[19:02] <mka> invaderjonny42, burn the iso to a disk and shutdown and boot from a cd and install
[19:02] <anom01y> guntbert, , I just downgraded beacuse I was told that 8.10 would support my video card (ati radeon mobility 7000 igp)
[19:02] <invaderjonny42> can i install it to an external hard drive?
[19:02] <anom01y> (from 9.10)
[19:03] <invaderjonny42> cause then i'll just mount it to save space
[19:03] <Otacon22> I was working on the Wiimote and now when i press a key on the keyboard the mouse doesn't move!!! What happened?
[19:03] <anom01y> but in hardware manager it doesnt give me the option to install any drivers
[19:03] <mka> invaderjonny42, you do NOT need to have /home a separate partition, but it is advantageous to do so
[19:03] <anom01y> the open source drivers that come by default work, but video is choppy (especially flash), and scrolling through web pages is really choppy also
[19:03] <invaderjonny42> mka, i'm down with that but how do i do that?
[19:04] <invaderjonny42> mka, also how do i make linux partitions on windows (software)
[19:04] <guntbert> anom01y: the option in hardware drivers exists only if your card is supported by fglrx..., otherwise the free drivers are used
[19:04] <invaderjonny42> mka, aka what do i need to make linux parttions
[19:05] <mka> invaderjonny42, use gparted to resize the partitions
[19:05] <invaderjonny42> mka, can i just mount it and copy it to another usb say an ipod?
[19:05] <invaderjonny42> mka, cause i don't have any cds
[19:05] <invaderjonny42> mka, or dvds
[19:06] <mka> invaderjonny42, you can use liveusb to install as well, i guess
[19:06] <rrc7cz> how can I cd into a folder owned by an application user? for example, /var/lib/couchdb/0.10.0 is owned by the couchdb user and I need to get in there to copy a db file
[19:06] <dreamhat_> is Ubuntu 100% opensource?
[19:07] <invaderjonny42> ok so to do that i mount it and just run the install but choose the ipod as the place to install it?
[19:07] <mka> invaderjonny42, you have 320GB and 1.5TB drives are they which one of them is internal?
[19:07] <guntbert> rrc7cz: sudo cp /var/lib/.... <target>
[19:07] <invaderjonny42> 320gb (which is broken)
[19:07] <grawity> dreamhat_: I think it's more like 99%
[19:07] <ionut> hi all . does anyone knows how can i divide C class network ( 192.168.0.x ) into two networks using a netmask ?
[19:07] <mka> invaderjonny42, why are you saying it is broken?
[19:07] <guntbert> ionut: ask in ##networking please
[19:07] <dnivra> dreamhat_, I don't think so. and I don't think you should pursue it here. head to #ubuntu-offtopic. this is a support channel for ubuntu.
[19:07] <rrc7cz> guntbert: but I don't know the files it contains? So I'll just copy all of them to a temp dir and see
[19:08] <invaderjonny42> mka, cause i burned it out
[19:08] <grawity> ionut: <IP_ADDRESS>/25 and <IP_ADDRESS>/25
[19:08] <invaderjonny42> mka, thats why i'm using ubuntu
[19:08] <culinor> hello, do you know how to update virtualbox 3.0.8 on ubuntu
[19:08] <ionut> grawity: why so ?
[19:08] <guntbert> rrc7cz: in that case try sudo ls /var/.....
[19:08] <mateusz> Witam serdecznie.
[19:08] <mka> invaderjonny42, but fdisk is seeing this drive as well as its partitions
[19:08] <invaderjonny42> mka, but only parts of it broke luckily not the raw basic startup files and recovery crap
[19:08] <rrc7cz> guntbert: that's everything I need, thanks
[19:08] <mozart373> !nice -5
[19:08] <grawity> ionut: CIDR
[19:09] <invaderjonny42> mka, it is a very wierd situtation i can access it even copy files but yet windows is broken
[19:09] <guntbert> rrc7cz: thought so - have fun :)
[19:09] <dnivra> culinor, best is to download the latest version from virtual box website and install. they do give the deb file for ubuntu.
[19:09] <grawity> ionut: <IP_ADDRESS>/<IP_ADDRESS> and <IP_ADDRESS>/<IP_ADDRESS> if you need a netmask
[19:09] <culinor> i want virtualbox OSE
[19:09] <mka> invaderjonny42, i get you now, windows is broken, NOT the drive itself
[19:09] <ionut> grawity:  i am a beginner. i would apreciate if you want to help me explaining
[19:09] <invaderjonny42> mka, but it is broken cause even ubuntu says there are MANY bad sectors

[19:09] <dnivra> culinor, virtualbox OSE is there in synaptic.
[19:09] <iammisc> I want to use fluidsynth but need a low-latency kernel. I read online that ubuntu jaunty doesn't have this kernel, but ubuntu studio does. I don't want ot have to install a new distro just to get low-latency support can I just get the ubuntu studio kernel?

[19:19] <Seveas> !grub2 > DubAndy
[19:19] <darthanubis> DubAndy, there is a Grub2 user guild onthe Ubuntuforums website
[19:20] <DubAndy> oh

[19:20] <Evilice05> Hello All, Trying to get my 2 wifi cards working both i am aware that both have problems, i have gotten my bcm43xx (internal wifi card on the dell insprion 1501) to work in gentoo and fedora with ndiswrapper and fwcutter. but for some reason i cant get it to work on ubuntu or my wusb600n =\ ndiswrapper works and install drivers but when modprobe is done it cant find ndiswrapper.ko . where wld i obtain this my computer doesnt have it anyw
[19:20] <Evilice05> here i beleive i have copied it from misc b4 on other distros. Thank you.
[19:21] <Guest43826> Thanks. Can I upgrade 6.1 to 8.04 LTS over the network somehow? "update manager" doesn't seem to be installed, and obviously synaptic can't get it.
[19:22] <asina12> Seveas: I did..i search for that port and couln't find anything
[19:22] <klown> Guest43826, why not a full install of 9.04/9.10, instead of trying to upgrade.  start out fresh :)
[19:22] <Seveas> asina12, then google may help :)
[19:23] <gfather> darthanubis no console apeared
[19:23] <guest000> ctmjr, thanks
[19:23] <shad0w_crash> Heey
[19:23] <darthanubis> gfather, what exactly did happen?
[19:24] <gfather> nothing happend
[19:24] <Guest43826> klown: my old laptop and old wifi card don't play well with new 7.x 8.x or 9.x installations - every time I get a read error on the CD ROM.
[19:24] <ctmjr> guest000: your welcome make sure you uninstall the 96 driver before you install the older one
[19:24] <D-coy> hi all o/
[19:24] <shad0w_crash> I got a problem with double screens,. when i display them mirrored everything is just fine, when I disable my 2nd screen (laptop enabled) everyting is fine,. but when I enable the second screen both go black... any clue anyone?
[19:24] <guest000> ctmjr, ok.
[19:25] <darthanubis> gfather, there is no way for me to confirm or deny that, so i can't help. "Nothing" seems highly improbable, as "something" always happens.
[19:25] <klown> Guest43826, sounds like you have quite a problem then, seeing as 6.x isnt supported anymore.
[19:25] <asina12> Seveas: they're unassigned
[19:25] <guest000> ctmjr, do I need a reboot inbetween the 2?
[19:25] <Guest43826> I am able to get Qimo to boot, but it won't recognize my wifi card..
[19:26] <kzd> hi
[19:26] <Guest43826> is there an IRC for Kubuntu?
[19:26] <kzd> How can I change default device input on Camorama ?
[19:26] <klown> Guest43826, #kubuntu
[19:26] <shad0w_crash> I got a problem with double screens,. when i display them mirrored everything is just fine, when I disable my 2nd screen (laptop enabled) everyting is fine,. but when I enable the second screen both go black... any clue anyone?
[19:26] <gfather> darthanubis myabe my lcd is not accepting the console resolution
[19:27] <ctmjr> guest000: i would just to be safe
[19:27] <guest000> ctmjr, aight
[19:27] <arbir> how can i disable the extra ttys . i dont need 6 of them. just 2 will suffice. i can comment out the spawn getty line in /etc/init/ttyX.conf , but, is there a proper way to do it from a program ?
[19:27] <Evilice05> depmod -a
[19:27] <gremos> hi everybody
[19:27] <Evilice05> oops wrong window
[19:27] <darthanubis> gfather, it should be a resolution that is easily displayable by any screen. Try booting a livecd to confirm that theiry?
[19:28] <gfather> darthanubis ok
[19:29] <nztal> can anyone suggest a bandwidth meter for keeping track of mobile usb 3g usage ?
[19:29] <gfather> nztal no , and they are bad :)
[19:29] <gfather> they dont have any config stuff , and i hate thos things
[19:30] <VCoolio> arbir: regarding cpu or mem usage it doesn't really matter; I checked once and the solution was something like you mentioned
[19:30] <arbir> VCoolio: there must be a way to enabled and disable stuff from various run levels
[19:30] <Ddorda> is it possible to make a network between 2 pc's with USB cable?
[19:31] <guntbert> !runlevel | arbir
[19:31] <trism> arbir: the current way to disable upstart scripts seems to be to rename them to something that doesn't end in .conf, so moving them to /etc/init/ttyX.conf-disabled should work
[19:31] <marek_> :http://www.ubuntu.com
[19:31] <OerHeks> Ddorda yes, with a special usb cable
[19:31] <Dr_Willis> Ddorda:  not a normal usb cable.  that i know of.. Ive seen special usb cables..
[19:31] <Dr_Willis> Ddorda:  firewire can however. :)
[19:32] <arbir> trism: alright :-). thats all i wanted to know. thanks..  so commenting out stuff works fine for me.
[19:32] <VCoolio> arbir: sysv-rc-conf does that, but no options for getty there
[19:32] <Ddorda> Dr_Willis: if I have a USB cable that can connect the pc in the 2 sides, hwo do I connect between them?
[19:32] <burzki> wanting to install a dual boot of mandriva using grub1 alongside my existing karmic using grub2 .. anyone know how this will sort out or howto set it up properly??
[19:32] <arbir> VCoolio: cool!
[19:32] <_rabe_> what is the command for mkfs fat16?
[19:33] <jo1> Hello, I just compiled alsa on ubuntu server 9.10. Sound works fine with sudo but how do I make my user able to get sound? (I did do gpasswd -a <myuser> audio)
[19:33] <arbir> VCoolio: i remember doing something like this in Redhat, when it was free in the past
[19:33] <clrg> _rabe_: mkfs.vfat -F 16
[19:33] <iceroot> _rabe_: man mkfs
[19:33] <_rabe_> clrg, tnx
[19:33] <Ddorda> OerHeks:  if I have a USB cable that can connect the pc in the 2 sides, hwo do I connect between them?
[19:34] <Dr_Willis> Ddorda:  and where did this cable come from? Is there some block in the middle of it?
[19:34] <Dr_Willis> Ddorda:  or is it some modular cable you can change the ends?
[19:34] <remu> hey folks, i'm having an issue with cups. i have set the printers on my machine as shared with cups, and i also have allowed internet printing. in a previous setup i had dyndns setup to point to my router and adding :631 to the end of it took me to the cups page on my machine, now however it gives me an error 400. if i am on the lan, and use the machines ip:631 it works fine. i have made sure to forward ports properly
[19:35] <Ddorda> Dr_Willis: no, it's just a simple USB cable that came with my HDD
[19:36] <guntbert> clrg: thanx for your pointer regarding chroot (yesterday) - I had to leave - in the meantime I found what I was really looking for: http://www.nistor.co.uk/2009/12/chroot-into-ubuntu-from-debian/ (the mount --bind lines)
[19:36] <Dr_Willis> Ddorda:  its not a special usb cable then. Dont plug it in from PC to PC.
[19:36] <PyroPhelia> 've got a software raid 6 with 15 hard drives.  should I configure lvm to conform to the stripe width of the software raid or is the stripe function of lvm seperate from actual raids?
[19:36] <Joshi> hello people!
[19:36] <dell> hello
[19:36] <ctmjr> Ddorda: and one end has to usb plugs one red one black or another color
[19:36] <ActionParsnip> yo yo yo
[19:36] <Ddorda> ctmjr: I see..
[19:37] <jcc1> remu, check cups config files to see if only the local network is allowed
[19:37] <jo1> Hello, I just compiled alsa on ubuntu server 9.10. Sound works fine with sudo but how do I make my user able to get sound? (I did do gpasswd -a <myuser> audio)
[19:37] <OerHeks> Ddora > no, that cable does not work, you need a special like this > http://www.digitus.info/digitus-data/bilder/ma-product-images-collage-high/183884.jpg
[19:37] <remu> jcc1: where would this be located?
[19:37] <erUSUL> PyroPhelia: i spect that aligned stripes all thrught the stack gives better performance
[19:37] <Ddorda> OerHeks: and do I need any special app to install? or it will work just like regular network?
[19:38] <guest000> how do I kill X from the command line?????
[19:38] <cokencode> guest000, xchat?
[19:38] <guest000> xserver
[19:38] <grkblood13> where do the system emails go?
[19:38] <PyroPhelia> erUSUL, yes that would make sense, but lvm only sees "1" device, so how do I configure the stripe width?
[19:38] <jcc1> in /etc/cups but I don't remember which file, but they are commented
[19:38] <Ddorda> OerHeks: it's a netlink adapter, I want to make network between those
[19:38] <erUSUL> PyroPhelia: that i duno sorry :|
[19:38] <ctmjr> guest000: sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop if using gnome
[19:38] <jcc1> they go to var/spool/mail/<username>
[19:39] <morphias> i applied a transparent bar to my panel but the indicator applet isn't going transparent.  does anyone know how to edit the gtkrc to change the style on the applet?
[19:39] <OerHeks> Ddorda yes you can, with this cable, but 2 networkcards + 1 cable is much cheaper

[19:39] <guest000> ctmjr, thanks
[19:39] <natrixnatrix89> !ftpd
[19:40] <Ddorda> OerHeks: Im on a laptop :P and is it so expencive?

[19:41] <clrg> jsilver: To remove undesired programs, run: "sudo bash -c "apt-get update; apt-get remove undesired-package" "
[19:41] <jsilver> LOL
[19:42] <jsilver> ok, not trying to remove anything

[19:43] <ActionParsnip> is there a way to send sound from one ubuntu system to another to then output on the other system's speakers?
[19:43] <jcc1> yes there is
[19:44] <ActionParsnip> can you please give me some details / guide :)
[19:44] <erUSUL> ActionParsnip: well all sound servers (including pulseaudio iirc) are network transparent aaik
[19:44] <Ddorda> erUSUL: thanks
[19:44] <erUSUL> ActionParsnip: no details to share sorry
[19:44] <erUSUL> Ddorda: no problem
[19:44] <ActionParsnip> erUSUL: tats what i figured but it seems elusive so far
[19:45] <OerHeks> ActionParsnip maybe lan, pulseaudio
[19:45] <ActionParsnip> OerHeks: yeah over lan, just need to get pulse to send stuff over
[19:46] <VCoolio> is there a way to have byobu show the running app (irssi, ncmpcpp) instead of "0-$ bash" "1-$ bash" etc?
[19:46] <trism> ActionParsnip: something like this maybe? http://x4.6times7.org/dokuwiki/doku.php/devlog/blog/streaming_on_ubuntu_8.04_with_pulseaudio
[19:47] <guntbert> VCoolio: did you look into F2 (setup)?
[19:47] <erUSUL> ActionParsnip: http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/PulseAudio#PulseAudio_over_network ? http://blog.paulbetts.org/index.php/2007/04/15/pulseaudio-in-ubuntu-feisty-play-sound-over-the-network/ ?
[19:47] <guest000> ctmjr, um, it failed and said that it failed to load nvidia module?
[19:47] <blakkheim> VCoolio: try #byobu
[19:47] <jsilver> How do I turn off Ubuntu Notification Boxes that pop up when I get an IM? So annoying!
[19:47] <OerHeks> ActionParsnip easy peasy , i followed the wiki > https://wiki.ubuntu.com/PulseAudio #Configuring PulseAudio
[19:47] <mka> dont know
[19:47] <deviad> Hello everyone
[19:47] <jcc1> ActionParsnip, mpd
[19:47] <mka> sorry
[19:48] <deviad> Is Crossoverlinux as good as vmware to run Windows applications?
[19:48] <ActionParsnip> OerHeks: will hit it, also big thanks to trism and erUSUL. will read all the links
[19:48] <jcc1> CrossoverLinux is an enhanced Wine
[19:48] <deviad> I don't want to use too much space to hold the file containing the OS
[19:48] <jcc1> so it depends on the app
[19:49] <Diverdude> How do i import .pst files from outlook into thunderbird?
[19:49] <deviad> but I dunno how good crossoverlinux became...
[19:49] <jcc1> supposedly better thsan wine but still not Windows
[19:49] <erUSUL> Diverdude: look for a pst2mbox tool.
[19:50] <jcc1> so it depends on the apps you want to run
[19:50] <deviad> I need to run Babylon translator
[19:50] <erUSUL> Diverdude: other route is to use TB in windows to import the mail thentransfer the mail to the linux TB
[19:50] <VCoolio> blakkheim: 7 people over there; we'll see how responsive they are...
[19:50] <deviad> And maybe something like studio architect.... it's a program to create UML stuff that I will need to use for university
[19:50] <jcc1> go to the crossover site and ask, they will know best
[19:50] <blakkheim> VCoolio: you won't get support for it in here, this is a channel for ubuntu support
[19:50] <deviad> #crossover
[19:51] <VCoolio> blakkheim: I know, but it's default app in ubuntu, so had to try
[19:52] <blakkheim> VCoolio: why not just use screen's way of renaming a tab
[19:52] <blakkheim> ctrl+a+A, type the name you want
[19:53] <[-----Wapo24> ola
[19:53] <[-----Wapo24> alguien me leee

[19:54] <guest000> ctmjr, you still here?
[19:55] <hvgotcodes> does ubuntu use .initrc?
[19:55] <hvgotcodes> i mean .xinitrc i think
[19:55] <ctmjr> guest000: yes did it work?
[19:56] <blakkheim> hvgotcodes: it does if you disable xdm
[19:56] <werkor9> Any one know the process of of the Jack server install?
[19:56] <guest000> ctmjr, no sir, it says it failed to load a module, but im thinking i did not have my kernel source when installing the driver the first time?
[19:56] <upgrdman> well i update the sane .conf and gave it my firmware file... but it still want to use my tv tuner as a scanner, instead of my epson flatbed scanner
[19:56] <guest000> ctmjr, now im d/l linux-source2.6.31 on the machin
[19:56] <hvgotcodes> blakkheim, if i want use awesome wm from within gdm, but i want awesome to start with a bunch of programs like gnomes power manager, nm-applet, etc, would I use xinitrc or Xsession or what?
[19:57] <kakjf>  Please click on this link - http://www.lostworlds.lv/go.php?1139747536
[19:57] <blakkheim> hvgotcodes: you would use awesome's built-in autostart apps section of the rc.lua
[19:57] <Datawire> How do I mount a CD-ROM and give ownership to a user?
[19:57] <ctmjr> guest000: oh ok the installer did not complain about not finding the kernel source?
[19:57] <clrg> Datawire: man fstab
[19:57] <hvgotcodes> blakkheim, thanx
[19:57] <grawity> Datawire: Try mount /media/cdrom -o uid=datawire
[19:58] <guest000> ctmjr, it did, but then it said it would build it or something so i let it go
[19:58] <guest000> ctmjr, do i need the opnafs-modules-dkms and source packages?
[19:59] <VCoolio> grawity: sorry, but what is it? irssi script or something I need my terminal to be aware of?
[19:59] <cokencode> guys, which im client for linux supports webcams ?
[19:59] <sprockets> what is up with everyone these days using et al all the time
[20:00] <grawity> VCoolio: an irssi script, sets window title... Might not be very useful, but I like it.
[20:00] <sprockets> coken I think pidgin does
[20:00] <blakkheim> cokencode: empathy, amsn
[20:00] <ChogyDan> cokencode: empathy and pidgin
[20:00] <clrg> cokencode: Skype
[20:00] <VCoolio> grawity: ok, I'll give it a shot, thankx
[20:00] <ctmjr> guest000: no
[20:00] <cokencode> clrg, does skype allow you to connect to the msn network ?
[20:00] <burzki> `
[20:00] <Datawire> Perfect
[20:00] <Datawire> And how do I unmount without ejecting a disc?
[20:00] <cokencode> ChogyDan, weir,d i'm using empathy, and while i see the option to start a video conversation, there's no option to send webcam
[20:01] <werkor9> i have compiled the Jack audio, and seems to not have the Jack server connection . Any Ideas?
[20:01] <cokencode> and the option to start a video convo is greyed out
[20:01] <jcc1> man umount
[20:01] <guntbert> Datawire: sudo umount /path...
[20:01] <sprockets> welcome to ubuntu cokencode
[20:01] <benomatic> i've got a box that i upgraded from 9.04 -> 9.10, and lost audio somehow.  the alsa driver seems to load, according to dmesg, but aplay -l shows no soundcards.  when i boot off a "live cd", the audio device seems to come up normally.  so i assume that my install is somehow corrupted... any suggestions on how to re-setup, short of fresh install over existing partitions?
[20:01] <ChogyDan> cokencode: so you start a video conversation, but you can't start the webcam?
[20:01] <mike> ho2e6 everyone
[20:01] <rasliche> is there a specific channel for Grub/getting help dual booting with windows 7 and Karmic?
[20:01] <mike> howdY
[20:01] <blakkheim> !grub2 > rasliche
[20:02] <jcc1> rasliche, you can google it or check dual-boot docs at tldp.org
[20:02] <cokencode> ChogyDan, no, i can't start the video convo either
[20:02] <erUSUL> benomatic: maybe you do not use the right kernel ? sudo aptitude linux-image
[20:03] <ChogyDan> cokencode: does the cam work w/ gstreamer-properties?
[20:03] <burzki> benomatic, likely drivers ..
[20:03] <rasliche> Well, where could I get specific, 1 on 1 help? I've googled, got on the unbuntu/launchpad forums
[20:03] <rasliche> and that's why I'm here, because my problem wasn't solved
[20:03] <jsilver> who wanted the fix to kill notify ballons
[20:03] <guntbert> !ask | rasliche
[20:03] <Blue1> rasliche: what is the problem - I just got here..
[20:03] <mike_> okay guys, I need a little bit of help here
[20:03] <jsilver> jcc1, i got the fix for you
[20:03] <burzki> jsilver, ido ..
[20:03] <jsilver> okay
[20:03] <jsilver> here it goes
[20:04] <Div_By_Zero> hellow everybody!
[20:04] <jsilver> sudo chmod -x /usr/lib/notify-osd/notify-osd
[20:04] <m666> why does opnning txt file opens the prompt window???
[20:04] <guntbert> but rasliche we are all volunteers - so ...
[20:04] <jsilver> pkill notify-osd
[20:04] <Guest44085> I got an Eee PC from my father, it's one of the really old ones and it has a really small hard drive, like 2GB, and I want to install UNR on it, but the latest version won't fit
[20:04] <m666> why i cant connect to #html with xchat?
[20:04] <Guest44085> do you think that an older version would fit on it?
[20:04] <jsilver> sudo chmod -x /usr/lib/notify-osd/notify-osd ; pkill notify-osd
[20:04] <Blue1> m666: it should give you the option to display - that's what you want
[20:04] <clrg> m666: If you want a GUI open it with gedit
[20:04] <jsilver> jcc1, thats the fix
[20:04] <blakkheim> Guest44085: use a VERY minimal installation, you aren't going to get much with 2gb
[20:04] <Div_By_Zero> Anybody know the game "battle of wesnoth"? It's has a problem whith the audio! How Fix?
[20:04] <guest000> ctmjr, after source installed, run nvidia program and restart?
[20:04] <rasliche> I tried to do the grub2 update in karmic in order to dual boot with windows 7. Windows 7 was previously installed, but when I run the osprobe command it does not find the W7 partition but says that it can't read something due to a RAID issue.
[20:04] <blakkheim> !mini | Guest44085
[20:04] <jcc1> thanks

[20:06] <Blue1> Div_By_Zero: hmm I've never heard of it - sorry...
[20:06] <Div_By_Zero> :(
[20:06]  * Blue1 is NOT much of a gamer
[20:06] <ctmjr> guest000: sudo killall gdm
[20:07] <guest000> ctmjr, ok, now its complaining about no precompiled kernel interface
[20:07] <Div_By_Zero> Bluel, well! it's rigth! thx!
[20:07] <Blue1> ctmjr: better sould be sudo service gdm restart
[20:08] <jonny42> what partition formats are used by linux?
[20:08] <Blue1> jonny42: what are you trying to do?
[20:08] <cokencode> ChogyDan, dunno, i'll try now
[20:08] <cokencode> *i'll try now
[20:08] <jonny42> make /home already know what to do just need list of formats
[20:09] <Blue1> jonny42: well there are various file structures each with it's strength and weaknesses - the default is ext4 - - I'd go with that.
[20:09] <ctmjr> Blue1: do not want gdm to restart want to stop it he already tried /etc/init.d/gdm stop
[20:09] <Blue1> ctmjr: ah
[20:09] <Diverdude> ok, so i unpacked the pst file into a new file using readpst. How do i then get this file into thundebird?
[20:09] <jonny42> Blue1, thanx
[20:09] <ctmjr> guest000: let me check
[20:09] <trevor> i just did a reinstall of ubuntu 9.10 and now my machine will not allow me to set my resolution of my monitor
[20:09] <guest000> ctmjr, ok, it said it cant find pre-compiled kernel interface, should i let it build 1?
[20:10] <guest000> ctmjr, ok.
[20:10] <jcc1> gdm stop only stops the login window, not X - killall X
[20:10] <benomatic> burzki: i manually installed newest alsa, and have same problem... so my thinking was that it's likely some 'post install' type step.  only off the cd can i get audio, thus far.
[20:10] <guest000> actually that command he gave me worked after a sec
[20:10] <jcc1> or possibly ctrl-alt-<backspace>
[20:10] <trevor> it is a 1600x900 resolution and the highest it lets me go is 1024x768
[20:10] <Blue1> trevorwhat kind of video card?  hint:  lspci : grep VGA
[20:11] <blakkheim> Blue1: that command won't work
[20:11] <Blue1> blakkheim: which command?
[20:11] <trevor> it is an ati 3100hd
[20:11] <blakkheim> Blue1: you use |s for pipes, not :s
[20:11] <Blue1> blakkheim: works here..
[20:11] <guest000> ctmjr, its a NV5M64/ TNT2
[20:12] <blakkheim> Blue1: lspci | grep VGA
[20:12] <Blue1> let me go back and see what I typed
[20:12] <ajochope> hi
[20:13] <ctmjr> guest000: let it try and install while i look around it might just work
[20:13] <Blue1> blakkheim: yup mis typed - thanks
[20:13] <Evilice> Hello, anyone who knows about ubuntu and ndiswrapper can you help? =] http://pastebin.ca/1735380
[20:13] <burzki> benomatic, not really my area, but i had problems on a different install with alsa conflicting jack ..
[20:14] <ChogyDan> Evilice: why arent you using the package?
[20:14] <burzki> benomatic, maybe something to do w/ jack setup in the new install .. about all i can offer on this
[20:14] <ADmad> what would be the proper mount options for an extra ext4 drive? using dolphin by default kubuntu mount like this: /dev/sda7 on /media/disk type ext4 (rw,nosuid,nodev,uhelper=hal)  but with that i can't write to it
[20:15] <theoros> i'm trying to install kubuntu via wubi on vista home premium and for some reason, even after running chkdsk /r i get "can't open /dev/sr0: No medium found" and "could not find the ISO /ubuntu/install/installation.iso" when booting up. wubi and the kubuntu 9.10 iso are on the desktop and had no problems running
[20:15] <guest000> ctmjr, failed to load nvidia_drv.so
[20:15] <Evilice> whenever i use the package i get a modprobe error saying ndiswrapper module not found.
[20:15] <anon_> how would one find out the version of one of their programs
[20:15] <theoros> anon_: program_name -v perhaps
[20:15] <Blue1> theoros: /dev/sr0 is the cdrom drive
[20:15] <theoros> anon_: please don't pm me
[20:15] <ChogyDan> Evilice: did you use ndis-gtk or whatever?
[20:15] <theoros> Blue1: yeah?
[20:15] <Evilice> yes i tried that too
[20:16] <Blue1> theoros: yup -
[20:16] <theoros> Blue1: thanks for that very informative piece of help.
[20:16] <theoros> Blue1: if you have any actual contribution to make that helps me, feel free
[20:16] <Evilice> i have been able to get it working in gentoo and fedora. but ubuntu is gving me problems. its for a bcm43x card and a wusb600n
[20:16] <Blue1> theoros: stumped me the first time around
[20:16] <nmvictor> which man page contains the linux system error exit status and their meaning
[20:16] <jcc1> theoros, you need to burn the iso to a cd and then put it in the cdrom drive
[20:17] <Blue1> jcc1: well said
[20:17] <theoros> jcc1: that seems to defeat the actual point of wubi.
[20:17] <jcc1> no it doesn't, it wants to load the system off the cdrom, just like a standard install
[20:17] <ChogyDan> Evilice: yeah I dunno.  I always installed ndiswrapper, installed the driver, then modprobed to get it working, then something like added it to a modprob file
[20:18] <Datawire> I'm using v8.10, whenever I put a CD-ROM in, it automatically mounts it but doesn't give me ownership, so I need to unmount it and remount it, giving my user ownership, any way I can make it automatically give me ownership during first mount?
[20:18] <jcc1> but don't tell me, I diidn't design the installation procedure :-)
[20:18] <theoros> jcc1: then why on earth would wubi download the ISO if it doesn't find it in the same directory that its in, if it wants me to put it on a CD?
[20:18] <jcc1> got me :-)
[20:18] <theoros> http://wubi-installer.org/
[20:18] <Evilice> ya useally ndiswrapper -m then a depmod -a gets it in there but for some reason its not =\
[20:18] <theoros> "No need to burn a CD"
[20:18] <jcc1> like I said, not my design
[20:18] <ajochope> Need help with grub2 and winxp and ubuntu 9.10 and ubuntu 9.04 and ubuntu studio 8.04 i follow this https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Grub2 the recover grub2 part
[20:18] <macman_> hey all back .. trying to recover some vobs from a dvd that aren't working right .. im using dd_rescue .. is there anything faster then dd_rescue ?
[20:18] <theoros> jcc1: if you don't actually know about wubi why are you telling me supposed solutions?
[20:19] <ChogyDan> Evilice: oh, and sudo ndiswrapper -m too
[20:19] <jcc1> if the system said it could not find it on the cdrom drive then that is waht it meant, it could not find it there
[20:19] <Evilice> yup =\
[20:20] <floating> can I extend a ext4 partition with / my root from the begin of it
[20:20] <jcc1> so I would put it there and see what happens
[20:20] <theoros> jcc1: which is superb, except part of the point of wubi is that i don't have to burn anything to a CD to get a working ubuntu installation
[20:20] <Evilice> is there a way of fixing the FATAL : MODULE ndiswrapper not found when using the package install?
[20:20] <ctmjr> guest000: am pretty sure you have the kernel headers but you can check apt-get install linux-headers-`uname -r` or ls /lib/modules/`uname -r` and you should have a build dir and such
[20:20] <theoros> i'm not going to burn a CD when i'm using wubi.
[20:20] <jcc1> as I said, I didn't design the system, I just follow the error messages
[20:21] <jcc1> and if it wants it on the cdrom drive then that is where I'll put it
[20:21] <theoros> jcc1: good for you. i'm not going to
[20:21] <guest000> ctmjr, k moment
[20:21] <jcc1> then don't, that's sim[ple
[20:21] <theoros> jcc1: yes it is. are you going to continue to echo the error message or do you actually know how to get to the first sentence of the wubi website, which is "no need to burn a CD"?
[20:21] <sumoduno> my conky is messed up. when i run it and i open a window, say firefox, and i click my desktop conky disappears, but conky is still running
[20:22] <theoros> if you don't know, don't hesitate to stop echoing
[20:22] <floating> will the partition tables or whatever go messed up if i boot to windows and expand my ext4 partition with system in it.. from the begin of it
[20:22] <guntbert> theoros: stay polite please
[20:22] <Parsi> i need a powerfull torrent application
[20:22] <grawity> Parsi: Transmission, Deluge.
[20:23] <Parsi> grawity: thanks
[20:23] <theoros> guntbert: i find it impolite to seem to help without actually giving any useful information
[20:23] <guest000> ctmjr, no build dir
 utorrent
[20:23] <Cabrobra> [shawnps]: dae manow.. ta ae?
[20:23] <userone> is it better to upgrade to grub2 from grub before installing win7 (which will knock out grub)?
[20:23] <VCoolio> sumoduno: set own_window_type to normal or override, not desktop
[20:23] <guntbert> theoros: you sure are demanding - he was at least trying to help
[20:23] <Parsi> sumoduno: is it available for linux?
[20:23] <ctmjr> guest000: then install the headers or did you try?
[20:24] <Parsi> i have it for windows
[20:24] <jcc1> I'm ignoring him
 run though WINE! :)
[20:24] <Parsi> sumoduno: err! i tryed
[20:24] <theoros> guntbert: should i give written acknowledgement that the effort is appreciated despite the persistence of "do what you don't need to do when using wubi"?
[20:24] <Parsi> did not work
[20:24] <guest000> ctmjr, yea i gotta get to graphics, mode by rebooting in to low graphics mode so my wifi on the machine will connect then ill download those and retry the nvidia?
[20:24] <VCoolio> Parsi: deluge looks like utorrent, or did you try that already?
[20:24] <Parsi> VCoolio: nope
[20:24] <guest000> ctmjr, the headers for .31 kernel im guessing
 oh. i dunno. i just use the default torrent client
[20:25] <guntbert> theoros: please cool down - I'm not going to argue with you :-)
[20:25] <Parsi> VCoolio: i have to install it in centOS
[20:25] <Parsi> :(
[20:25] <theoros> guntbert: i'm cool already, thanks?
[20:25] <theoros> so i guess now that the stupid derail has wound down, i'll restate my problem
[20:25] <theoros> i'm trying to install kubuntu via wubi on vista home premium and for some reason, even after running chkdsk /r i get "can't open /dev/sr0: No medium found" and "could not find the ISO /ubuntu/install/installation.iso" when booting up. wubi and the kubuntu 9.10 iso are on the desktop and had no problems running
[20:25] <ctmjr> guest000: yes for your kernel you are on now the easiest way is sudo aptitude install linux-headers-`uname -r`
[20:25] <sumoduno> VCoolio> coolio thanks!
[20:25] <VCoolio> Parsi: don't know about that, at least you could compile if it doesn't have a package that fits centOS
[20:26] <luis_> People is there a way to sync my Ipod Touch with Linux? is pretty horrible to go to windows, having ALL my music in my Kubuntu Laptop
[20:26] <Cabrobra> Pessoal... posso instalar o Ubuntu pelo windowns e formatar para ficar só com Linux?
[20:26] <bahaa> hi guys
[20:26] <Parsi> VCoolio: thanks
[20:26] <webbb82> i need to install my ATI/AMD  graphics driver but in hardware drivers i see it but when i  click the green activate button nothing happens

[20:27] <Tinned_Tuna> Heya, I'm having some wireless difficulties with an Intel 4965 card. Once logged in, the card will connect to my wireless network. But then very shortly after disconnects and cannot reconnect
[20:27] <floating> will the partition tables or whatever go messed up if i boot to windows and expand my ext4 partition with system in it.. from the begin of it
[20:27] <Liam> I have an Atheros AR242x wireless card. I have installed the proprietary "madwifi" driver under System -> Administration -> Hardware Drivers - but the wireless card is inable to pick up any network connections (I am currently plugged in VIA wire) - 'iwconfig' shows my wireless device but again - no networks are shown. Is there a solution to this?
[20:27] <Tinned_Tuna> I've tried modprobe-ing to unload and reload the module to no avail.
[20:28] <ChogyDan> floating: they shouldn't get messed up, but you need to use a good partitioning program
[20:28] <Cabrobra> Can i install Ubuntu by windowns, and stay only with linux?
[20:28] <ipatrol> How can I install two deb files with circular dependencies?
[20:28] <Commando_Worm> hello
[20:28] <floating> partition magic 8 on windows can do that, so maybe it is good enough ChogyDan ?
[20:28] <Tinned_Tuna> I've also tried booting into older kernels, which gave exactly the same symptoms :-/
[20:28] <trevor_> ok so i installed the hardware drivers for my video card, and now the highest resolution i can get is 1280x768....this has never been an issue before, anyone know what could be wrong?
[20:28] <Commando_Worm> does anyone use ADOBE PHOTOSHOP HERE?
[20:28] <Commando_Worm> I need help

[20:40] <userone> just found out that grub2 is still beta, so wont be updating! will stick to grub legacy for now...
[20:40] <xtjacob> does anyone know how to delay the start of an application
[20:41] <jcc1> voralberg, yes, but you are not explining very clearly, I think
[20:41] <Donald-teh-Duck> xtjacob: sleep 5 %% yourapp
[20:41] <voralberg> it's ok
[20:41] <clrg> xtjacob: bash -c "sleep 60; application"
[20:41] <Donald-teh-Duck> *&&
[20:41] <guest000> ctmjr, :\
[20:41] <ird> I was wondering. Say I open an app in one workspace, but no window has appeared yet (IE slow browsers). Is there a way to make load in that workspace and not in another one (so I don't have to wait for it to load to do something else)
[20:41] <Zopiac> Using IceWM, it is nearly impossible to play fullscreen games because the taskbar steals attention when you bring the mouse to the bottom of the screen
[20:41] <Zopiac> oes anybody know a fix?
[20:41] <Zopiac> does*
[20:41] <voralberg> i changed the mount point of my sd card with the GUI
[20:41] <Donald-teh-Duck> Zopiac: new x server for games?
[20:41] <duffydack> anyone know what file the Ati control centre saves its settings to ?  I cant find anything in ~
[20:41] <xtjacob> I mean on startup, can i put: "bash -c "sleep 60; conky"
[20:41] <robert__> hey
[20:42] <nmvictor> which man page contains the linux system error exit status and their meaning
[20:42] <Zopiac> Donald-teh-Duck: what do you mean?
[20:42] <floating> i resized a ntfs partition with system, but then I didn't even apply it, and rebooted, and I ended up in grub rescue. setup command nor find command is not found,also cant find "help" command. only "ls" works, what should i do ?
[20:42] <voralberg> i've gone to property->volume->ann i set the mount point
[20:42] <voralberg> now the sd card doesn't work anymore
[20:43] <Donald-teh-Duck> Zopiac: you start a new x server for playing your game. that way you can switch between $DE and your game with ctrl+alt+f6/f7 or something and you won't see anything from the $DE in your game
[20:43] <voralberg> because when i try to mount it, it give me  back an error
[20:43] <shery> ciao
[20:43] <Maletor> In Empathy when I set my status to Away then do other things on my computer it often changes my status back to Available. What gives?
[20:43] <shery> come va?????

[20:43] <guest000> ctmjr k thanks anyway
[20:44] <shery> you speak italian????
[20:44] <jcc1> voralberg, have you read "man fstab"?
[20:44] <ctmjr> guest000: you can ask in #nvidia they might have an answer to me your card is just to old for the new xorg
[20:44] <jcc1> the ma page for fstab?
[20:44] <jcc1> ma=man
[20:44] <voralberg> yes i looked for fstab... i deleted the line of the sd card
[20:44] <guntbert> !it | shery
[20:44] <voralberg> but it doesn't work
[20:44] <guest000> ctmjr, i have a 64mb nvidia card that works on my other machine, i guess i could swap them out and throw this one away
[20:44] <jcc1> no, I mean have you read the manual page for fstab to check sytax
[20:45] <jcc1> sytax=syntax
[20:45] <klown> can someone tell me where icons are stored plz
[20:46] <jcc1> try /usr/share/icons
[20:46] <voralberg> yes i know the syntax but i deleted the line of the card and ubuntu must mount it automatically
[20:47] <anon_> alright need some pretty amateur help with installing a program, i enter the code to install kismet "sudo apt-get install kismet" yet it continues to install the older 08 model
[20:47] <Zopiac> Using IceWM, it is nearly impossible to play fullscreen games because the taskbar steals attention when you bring the mouse to the bottom of the screen, is there a fix?
[20:47] <jcc1> have you tried putting the line back in fstab?
[20:48] <voralberg> but i don't n knnow the UUID of my sd card
[20:48] <regex> sound stoped working on my laptop, anything i can do to reset what changed since it stoped working
[20:48] <guntbert> voralberg: open a terminal, type tail -f /var/log/syslog       and then insert your card and look what the system is telling you
[20:48] <SteveIgnorant> why doesnt #!/usr/bin/python work?
[20:48] <blakkheim> anon_: ubuntu's repos are usually outdated
[20:48] <ctmjr> guest000: thats what i would do looked on ebay they are selling that card for 5 dollars new
[20:48] <guest000> ctmjr, i found this pc in the garbage ;-P
[20:49] <anon_> blakkheim: so how would i manually choose which -v to install?
[20:49] <guntbert> blakkheim: please don't mix up "not the latest" with "outdated"
[20:49] <guest000> ctmjr, using it to hookup to my receiver to play music, and maybe watch videos if it works for that
[20:49] <blakkheim> anon_: you wouldn't with ubuntu. you need to compile the latest version
[20:49] <firefly2442> nmvictor, this might help you: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/1101957/are-there-any-standard-exit-status-codes-in-linux
[20:49] <anon_> blackkheim: ok thanks
[20:49] <voralberg> guntbert: the command line give me anything
[20:50] <ctmjr> guest000: like they say one man's trash is another man's treasure
[20:50] <guest000> ctmjr, if i have the 96 module alrdy instaled, if i plug in that card it will work yes?
[20:50] <matelot> ? How can I maximize a window but only say 50% Horizontal ?
[20:50] <guest000> ctmjr, if it had been a celeron id have left it there, but its a 450mhz pIII with a 512KB cache so I figured its good for something..+ it has 2 network cards/dvd-rom drive.
[20:50] <blakkheim> anon_: just my opinion, though: the older kismet is a bit better
[20:51] <ctmjr> guest000: cool did it have the hard drive?
[20:51] <anon_> blakkheim: sadly i can't use it, i need the newest -v to avoid issues with my broadcom card
[20:51] <guest000> ctmjr, yep.
[20:51] <guntbert> voralberg: ??
[20:51] <banana_> can anyone recommend a good irc client for ubuntu?

[20:52] <Flannel> WirSindDasVolk: Swiftweasel isn't in the repositories, just use firefox
[20:52] <guntbert> !irc | banana_
[20:52] <guest000> ctmjr, it also has a yamaha ds-1 soundcard which sounds pretty good
[20:52] <guest000> ctmjr, Im thinking if I just plug in the other nvidia card it will work since i got the module alrdy?
[20:53] <ctmjr> guest000: well where getting ready to get flamed for being ot but i would plug the other card in and see what happens
[20:53] <blakkheim> anon_: my trusty atheros chipset works great :)
[20:53] <guest000> ctmjr, k
[20:53] <anon_> blackkheim: lucky lol

[21:01] <Join-D> Hi there, can someone think of a reason a cronjob cant cd to a directory (permissions should be fine)
[21:01] <guntbert> Join-D: you need to give the full path

[21:01] <nullkuhl> what is karmic's default root pass ?   whenever i try SU it asks for pass , i enter my own ( the one that i entered at setup ) but it fails, please advice ..
[21:02] <clrg> nullkuhl: sudo su
[21:02] <guntbert> !root | nullkuhl
[21:02] <Join-D> guntbert ok, but on a other machine the cd /home/myname && ./backup.sh works
[21:02] <blakkheim> nullkuhl: you need to run "sudo passwd root" to set a root password, although most ubuntu people tell you not to
[21:02] <guntbert> clrg: don't recommedn that please, use sudo -i instead
[21:02] <VCoolio> Join-D: use /bin/bash /home/you/backup.sh
[21:02] <guntbert> Join-D: then I don't know - was just a quick idea
[21:03] <blakkheim> Join-D: is the file executable?

[21:04] <meydlo> hello may somebody help me with problem "ath5k phy0: noise floor calibration tameout" but blacklist doesn't help me thx:)
[21:04] <Dr_Willis> pdg1:  wine menu items are defined by some .desktop files in the users home.   Not sure why they all would vanish.
[21:04] <Th3> hola
[21:04] <VCoolio> Join-D: also maybe a line like this on top may help: SHELL=/bin/bash    so crontab understands more
[21:04] <gkahla> is there a group for the "HAL" daemon?

[21:05] <Th3> hola

[21:08] <Dr_Willis> louiethecuban:  totally depends on the specific game.

[21:17] <jcc1> eike, here is one answer http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=590047
[21:17] <blakkheim> philabole: your NIC's driver should be part of the kernel (or a module)
[21:18] <jcc1> screamo, chown chages owners, chmod changes permissions, check the ma pages for usage
[21:18] <Screamo_Smurf> Grrr why wont VLC play music? :(
[21:18] <jcc1> man pages

[21:26] <_2> noob reverse.    passwd root
[21:26] <Dr_Willis> noob:  you DONT need to make a root passwd.

[21:26] <guntbert> !sudo | noob
[21:26] <noob> ahh, ok

[21:31] <TeLe_ghost> !hal

[21:33] <Seveas> henrycoule, that's caused by bad support for your graphics chipset. Try the latest version of Ubuntu. If that fails, try fedora
[21:33] <duffydack> Guest82682,  it will be the best you can get...
[21:33] <snail> is there a reason the seconds on the clock skip like they go 38 39 40 41 ... 43 ...45 46 47 48 ... 50
[21:33] <rahduke> fast and easy question, I just configured my Fstab to load a new storage HD at startup, however when it loads I have no privliges on it, cannot create folders, delete, etc etc.... what am i doing wrong?
[21:33] <Seveas> rahduke, ntfs or ext3?
[21:33] <rahduke> Seveas: ext3
[21:34] <Guest82682> duffydack, can u give me a download link for ubuntu 8.10 ?
[21:34] <hyperstream> is it possible to encrypt my home directory without reinstalling ubuntu ? does it require the /home be mounted on another partition ?
[21:34] <Smithy> HI
[21:34] <Seveas> rahduke, chown/chmod to the rescue then
[21:34] <Dasda> hey guys anyone ever have a HP laptop? Its asking me for a "Setup Password" when I try to configure boot order. Im trying to do a fresh install of a new operating system but I can not get into the bios config screen
[21:34] <oCean_> Guest82682: http://releases.ubuntu.com/
[21:34] <klown> can someone tell me how to remove the top panel on the desktop?
[21:34] <hyperstream> Dasda, not your laptop ?
[21:34] <duffydack> damn oCean_ beat me to it lol
[21:34] <rahduke> Seveas: chmod 775 /sdc1?
[21:34] <Seveas> hyperstream, yes to both (though I'm not 100% sure about the second)
[21:34] <nemo> Did ATI drop support for the Xpress 200 ?
[21:35] <Seveas> rahduke, chown rahduke /mnt/something
[21:35] <oCean_> duffydack: oops :)
[21:35] <hyperstream> Dasda, if it is your laptop, and it came with a password, id contact the retailer

[21:35] <henrycoule> my Laptop is HP DV6
[21:35] <virtuelv> hm
[21:35] <rahduke> Seveas: I want to be able to write too it as soon as my comp boots, I dont want to use commands everytime
[21:35] <Guest82682> thanks for the help
[21:35] <Dasda> It is my cousins laptop who bought it a couple of years ago from futureshop. But now it is acting up and needs a new install.
[21:35] <Seveas> rahduke, it's a one-time thing
[21:35] <virtuelv> I'm trying to rip CDs with abcde
[21:35] <nemo> duffydack: um. thanks...
[21:35] <virtuelv> the rips come out with the wrong sample rate
[21:35] <hyperstream> Dasda, either him or possibiliy a techie put the password on.
[21:35] <virtuelv> (22.05 KHz instead of 44.1)
[21:36] <hyperstream> he she *
[21:36] <nemo> duffydack: looks like answer is it still supports
[21:36] <duffydack> I just noticed my radeon 4650 HD with fglrx is using xaa and not the newer exa... hmmmm
[21:36] <hyperstream> Seveas, thanks mate. Is it possible just to perhaps encrypt a folder instead?
[21:36] <nemo> duffydack: have someone in #hedgewars using mint 8.0 - basically ubuntu 9.10 right. and they claimed that jockey was empty when they launched it
[21:36] <Dasda> hyperstream or henrycoule, do you know how they give you the password? in the manual or another way? i think the stupid futureshop techies probably put it on for him as he knows nothing about computers himself
[21:36] <rahduke> Seveas: my drive is at sdc1 and its mounting at /media/monster ...... can you give me a tip on what the command should look like?
[21:37] <nemo> duffydack: they just installed xorg-driver-fglrx but I'm worried. jockey is much better at this stuff and they are very very new to linux
[21:37] <hyperstream> Dasda, no, nothing in the manual, you need to contact the shop
[21:37] <Seveas> rahduke, chown rahduke:rahdume /media/monster (replace rahduke with your loginname)
[21:37] <Dasda> hyperstream: ok
[21:37] <lufis> I'm having major graphics problems on an old Dell 4500s desktop with Intel 82845g graphics. Karmic has a black screen after the grub menu. So does Jaunty. Only until I switch to vesa do I actually have a usable system, but that has terrible screen resolution. Any ideas?
[21:37] <nemo> duffydack: mind giving them some tips in #hedgewars? :)
[21:37] <henrycoule> @seveas my laptop is HP DV6 and i tried the latest Ubuntu
[21:38] <noob> Dr_Willis: thank you for the advice.  It worked.  I just used the root terminal to move the copy of xorg.conf from /home to /etc/X11 and now my twinview boots up correctly at start-up.  Thanks again!
[21:38] <rahduke> Seveas: your the man thanks alot!
[21:38] <hyperstream> Dasda, its a pain man, had a similar issue with my own cuz, only to find out it was stolen lol, with that lowjack stuff, was quickly out my door.
[21:38] <rob__> < lufis> sounds like you gfx card may be blacklisted
[21:38] <duffydack> nemo, if all they did was install the package manually,and it works, then, I dont know what to say..
[21:38] <lufis> rob__:  blacklisted from even using the system?
[21:38] <nemo> duffydack: they haven't said if it works or not
[21:38] <lufis> rob__:
[21:38] <nemo> duffydack: I have no idea if installing the package manually will setup xorg right
[21:38] <nemo> duffydack: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto/ATI
[21:38] <nemo> duffydack: I linked them to that but I have no idea if it is accurate
[21:39] <lufis> I'm not talking about just no compiz effects. There is NO graphics after the boot menu
[21:39] <hyperstream> henrycoule, whats wrong with your laptop ?
[21:39] <nemo> I'm kinda puzzled why jockey didn't show anything. wondering if someone might know more
[21:39] <duffydack> nemo, what does glxinfo |grep vendor bring back  ( ATI? )
[21:39] <henrycoule> Ubuntu doesnt wanna install on it actually it runs but my screen goes blank
[21:39] <zer0_mood> hi all. i just installed eclipse-jdt. this is the IDE for java SE rite ?
[21:40] <LinuxAdmin> hi
[21:40] <rob__> < lufis> no some gfx cards may be blacklisted , mine was a intel had the same problem, new versions of the driver may no longer be available so they get black listeed
[21:40] <hyperstream> henrycoule, join #Ubuntu+1 , i have a Compaq laptop that wouldnt install ubuntu current or older releases. but the newer release worked.
[21:40] <pollywog> is there a way to keep network manager from changing my resolv.conf ?
[21:40] <Smithy> How do i become a register user with this IRC
[21:40] <rasliche> I'm trying to get a Windows 7 install recognized with Ubuntu 9.10. They are installed on two physically separate hard drives in a laptop. I get this error when following standard guides around the internet: ERROR: isw device for volume "RAID0" broken on /dev/sda in RAID set "isw_bcbbhcaehd_RAID0"
[21:40] <rasliche>  ERROR: isw: wrong # of devices in RAID set "isw_bcbbhcaehd_RAID0" [1/2] on /dev/sda
[21:40] <hyperstream> henrycoule, try lucid (#Ubuntu+1) should work mate.
[21:40] <lufis> rob__:  Ok, that's fucked up. What am I supposed to do?
[21:40] <guntbert> !register | Smithy
[21:40] <LinuxAdmin> I'm an old Slackware administrator and I'm moving to ubuntu
[21:40] <rob__> check /etc/modprobe.d/blacklised
[21:41] <henrycoule> hyperstream i install the latest ubuntu
[21:41] <pollywog> !ohmy
[21:41] <sergheey_> pollywog you can remove network manager
[21:41] <oCean_> lufis: mind your language
[21:41] <hyperstream> henrycoule, you tried karmic yes? what about Lucid ?
[21:41] <Smithy> Thanks
[21:41] <pollywog> sergheey_ I need it for wifi
[21:41] <lufis> oCean_: Mind your censorship.
[21:41] <henrycoule> i have not tried them yet
[21:41] <LinuxAdmin> I'm enjoying a lot ubuntu, I'm wondering if it's widely used on the server field
[21:42] <LinuxAdmin> any suggestions?
[21:42] <henrycoule> i tried karmic
[21:42] <zer0_mood> pls suggest a channel where i can ask questions about java
[21:42] <hyperstream> henrycoule, it was the only solution for my new Compaq laptop.
[21:42] <henrycoule> latest version
[21:42] <henrycoule> 9.10
[21:42] <henrycoule> which one?
[21:42] <henrycoule> Lucid?
[21:42] <guntbert> lufis: no - you mind your language please
[21:42] <hyperstream> henrycoule, yes, Lucid - 10.4 - /join #Ubuntu+1
[21:43] <henrycoule> hyperstream were do i get the lucid?
[21:43] <Revolutionary> LinuxAdmin, I don't know if it is widely used on the server field but I do know that they offer a version of Ubuntu that is made for servers
[21:43] <rob__> had a great expirence after xmas , a mate had a windows 7 pc , and a ubuntu waned to install a belkin usb sticks on them both for wife. ubuntu worked like a charm , no driver install worked straight off
[21:43] <Fah> I'm trying to do a little C++ dev on the latest version of ubuntu. Shouldn't memcmp be a part of the std namespace?
[21:43] <hyperstream> henrycoule, join the channel and look at the topic.
[21:43] <rob__> windows  7 a couple reboots
[21:43] <LinuxAdmin> can't I use ubuntu 9.10 as a server?
[21:43] <zer0_mood> LinuxAdmin, noob here but i think red hat is best for servers from what Ive heard
[21:44] <PolK_> Hey guys, where can i get access to a french server?
[21:44] <hyperstream> LinuxAdmin, there is a server edition of ubuntu i think. Most dedicated servers i interact with use Centos / RedHat
[21:44] <guntbert> LinuxAdmin: of course you can - detailed discussion better in #ubuntu-server
[21:44] <LinuxAdmin> I don't like red hat
[21:44] <oCean_> PolK_: french ubuntu irc channel? #ubuntu-fr
[21:44] <LinuxAdmin> thanks anyway
[21:45] <PolK_> yeah ocean, thanks
[21:45] <micahf> hey, so I dd'd the latest ubuntu iso onto a 4gb sandisk usb flash drive
[21:45] <micahf> and it won't boot!
[21:46] <micahf> the computer just skips it and goes straight to windows
[21:46] <micahf> could it be that I used the wrong block size?
[21:46] <RS-232> Basically what happens to me is that even I call to node_save($node) a hundred times into hook_nodeapu with $op=update&insert...it only saves ONCE the node, any clue?
[21:46] <nemo> duffydack: he's definitely not using fglrx - and the card is 5 years old so I'm betting ATI dropped it
[21:46] <anon_> anyone know what the newest version of kismet compiles with?
[21:46] <micahf> I used a block size of 2048
[21:46] <nemo> duffydack: that's probably why jockey didn't work
[21:46] <micahf> i'm trying again with 1024
[21:46] <micahf> I just don't see how that would be the issue
[21:46] <solifugus> How do you take a screenshot in gnome?
[21:46] <micahf> it's frustrating
[21:47] <Dr_Willis> micahf:  you dont 'dd' a iso to a flash drive.
[21:47] <asathoor> solifugus > just press prnt scrn
[21:47] <micahf> Dr_Willis: why not?
[21:47] <guntbert> LinuxAdmin: see https://help.ubuntu.com/9.10/serverguide/C/index.html
[21:47] <Dr_Willis> micahf:  you use unetbootin  or a similer tool..
[21:47] <Dr_Willis> micahf:  err.. because it wont work.. :)
[21:47] <Dr_Willis> micahf:  thats why
[21:47] <micahf> ugh :(
[21:47] <Dr_Willis> micahf:  where did you get the idea that it would work? :)
[21:47] <micahf> i'm on mac os x though
[21:47] <micahf> i thought it was supposed to work on mac os x
[21:47] <micahf> http://www.bergek.com/2008/10/28/create-iso-on-mac-os-x-104/
[21:48] <macman_> does anyone use growisfos from the command line ? .. im trying to burn a dvd and i never can .. growisofs -dvd-compat -Z /dev/hdc -dvd-video -V LABEL /path/to/dvd/image/  any thingi try says write failed . . yet if i run dvd_decryptor in wine and burn the iso to dvd it is fine .. any ideas on how to fixd ?
[21:48] <Dr_Willis> micahf:  check pendrivelinux.com for tutorials. they may have tools
[21:48] <Dr_Willis> micahf:  dding an iso file to a flash drive does not work.. dding the old UNR.img file WOULD work. since its a img. not a iso
[21:48] <Smithy> Does any know where i put this  "/msg nickserv register <your-password> <your-email>"      so i can register.
[21:48] <azrael_> yo
[21:49] <Dr_Willis> micahf:  or boot a ubuntu live cd somewhere and use the usb-disk-creator tool.
[21:49] <Dr_Willis> Smithy:  right where you type everything else.
[21:49] <azrael_> anyone know any good game for ubuntu
[21:49] <oCean_> Smithy: use the inputbox of your irc client, just like talking to this channel
[21:49] <anon_> ok amateur  question here, i need someone to explain compiling to me
[21:49] <Dr_Willis> Smithy:  you may want to use a 'server' tab to talk to the bots
[21:49] <_rabe_> Dr_Willis, do you know something that is easier? for example "dosbox dostool.exe commandstoexe"?
[21:49] <Dr_Willis> _rabe_:  Ive no idea what you are trying to do .
[21:50] <noob> can someone please tell me why even though I've installed screenlets and enabled the widget layer, I still can't see "screenlets" in my mai menu?
[21:50] <guntbert> !compile | anon_
[21:50] <ActionParsnip> azrael_: penumbra demo, frets on fire, urban terror
[21:50] <_rabe_> Dr_Willis, i need the emulation of the emulated dosbox in winxp for example in the linux shell
[21:50] <Hydrosis> Hi all, I just installed bible-kjv and opened it in the terminal using "bible".  Everything works fine, but I can;t figure out how to exit bible-kjv without closing the terminal.  Using "exit" does not work and "help" does not work.
[21:50] <Smithy> Dr_Willis:     sever
[21:50] <Doonz> can someone post the /etc/init.d/lighttpd directory
[21:50] <jarray52> What settings does the Linux kernel get from the BIOS, and what settings does the kernel configure itself? I'm trying to troubleshoot a hardware conflict that causes Linux to hard freeze. The NIC card controlling eth0 conflicts with usb-storage devices. If the NIC card is disabled in the BIOS, usb-storage devices work. If the NIC card is not disabled, eth0 works until a USB storage device is inserted.
[21:50] <Dr_Willis> _rabe_:  dos box emulates 'dos'  it has nothing to emulate anything under xp/windows.. its pure dos...
[21:51] <micahf> Dr_Willis: thanks for the info, seems like my attempt to dd might be the problem
[21:51] <ActionParsnip> jarray52: try some bootoptions, or upgrading BIOS
[21:51] <azrael_> where would i find them?
[21:51] <ActionParsnip> azrael_: online
[21:51] <_rabe_> Dr_Willis, yes but dosbox does not run the exes i need to run
[21:51] <azrael_> DUH
[21:51] <micahf> Dr_Willis: the hard part for me to understand is that I followed a tutorial which said this should work under os x (presumably because the OS X dd can do that?)
[21:51] <Dr_Willis> _rabe_:  You may need to use an actual windows setup, or wine then.
[21:52] <Dr_Willis> micahf:  i dont see how dd can do that at all. I would say the guide is wrong.
[21:52] <jason> I tri booted my pc - XP, Kubuntu, OpenSUSE (in that order). After suse got done installing, Kubuntu wont show up in the gru bmenu. How can I get it back?
[21:52] <Dr_Willis> micahf:  all dd does is a direct data dump from one location to another.
[21:52] <_rabe_> Dr_Willis, that would be plan b but i thought there would be something easy
[21:52] <guntbert> micahf: maybe the guide is simply outdated?
[21:52] <Dr_Willis> micahf:  IF it was 'dding' a .img of the UNR  yes.. it would work.. bit for an ISO - No... it wont
[21:53] <pollywog> is there a way to cause network-manager to leave my DNS server settings alone?
[21:53] <jarray52> ActionParsnip: I'm using the latest BIOS version. I tried irqpoll and a couple of others.
[21:53] <Dr_Willis> micahf:  and many other disrtos have '.img' images you can dd to flash drives directluy
[21:53] <towlie_> hi
[21:53] <marxelus> hi, I've a problem with my wifi
[21:53] <Hydrosis> I installed "bible-kjv" and opened it in the terminal using the command "bible".  Everything works fine, but I can't figure out how to exit bible-kjv without closing the terminal window.  I do not want to do that.  Using "exit" does not work.  Anyone know how to exit this app without closing  the terminal window?
[21:53] <towlieban> hi
[21:53] <marxelus> could anyone help me?
[21:53] <meydlo> hello may somebody help me with problem "ath5k phy0: noise floor calibration tameout" but blacklist doesn't work thx:)
[21:53] <dropedrobarri> hi
[21:53] <klown> can someone tell me how to remove the panel at the top of the desktop please.
[21:53] <asathoor> marxelus > perhaps
[21:53] <ActionParsnip> pollywog: you can put the settings you want into network manager, it will then add the settings you want
[21:53] <jorik> micahf: the guide you pasted does not what you suggest it does
[21:53] <zer0_mood> marxelus, what seems to be the problem ?
[21:54] <Dr_Willis> Hydrosis:  programname &     then 'exit' normally works..
[21:54] <ActionParsnip> klown: right click it -> delete panel
[21:54] <asathoor> marxelus > what is your problem?
[21:54] <Hydrosis> klown: right clock the panel and chose remove panel
[21:54] <Dr_Willis> Hydrosis:  or 'nohup programname &'  then 'exit'
[21:54] <klown> i removed everything but sound, network, and the logoff wont seem to leave.
[21:54] <Dr_Willis> Hydrosis: or did i missunderstand the question?
[21:54] <azrael_> hey anyone know how to get flash working on liux
[21:54] <micahf> jorik: that's a different one, lemme find the original
[21:54] <azrael_> linux
[21:54] <Hydrosis> Dr_Willis: im stuck INSIDE the app.  I cant run regular commands like "exit" or "killall" etc.  When I type, it navigate keywords within the app (bible)
[21:55] <marxelus> i've installed the driver with ndiswrapper and then a start the modul but when I type ifconfig wlan0 doesn't appear
[21:55] <micahf> jorik: http://www.makeuseof.com/tag/how-to-create-an-ubuntu-installation-usb-on-the-mac/
[21:55] <zer0_mood> azrael_, try to download it from the adobe site
[21:55] <micahf> is I think what it was
[21:55] <Dr_Willis> Hydrosis:  the app dosent have a 'q' for quit or some other key combo? ive never used the app.. so no idea on that.. ctrl-c perhaps...
[21:55] <asathoor> azrael > sudo apt-get install ubuntu-restricted-extras (write this in a terminal=
[21:55] <micahf> oh ug that's an img
[21:55] <Dr_Willis> Hydrosis:  it may be time to read the apps docs. :)
[21:56] <micahf> i feel like maybe it was misinformation from a forum that I got :/
[21:56] <Dr_Willis> micahf:  yep.. .img you CAN dd to a flash drive...  .iso you cant.
[21:56] <Hydrosis> Dr_Willis: I just typed "q" and it exited.  You friggin rock man.  Big thanks.  Someone buy this guy a beer.
[21:56] <klown> ActionParsnip,  Hydrosis  any way to remove the networking icon, volume, and logoff/switch user icon?
[21:56] <Dr_Willis> Hydrosis:  it may be time to read the apps docs. :)
[21:56] <ActionParsnip> klown: you can remove the panel by right clicking on an empty space on the bar and it can be removed
[21:56] <ActionParsnip> klown: you can add / remove any item on the bar you like
[21:57] <klown> ActionParsnip, it is not giving me the option to remove, only add panel, properties, new panel, help, and about panels
[21:57] <micahf> so now, why is it that the UNR iso is dd'able but not the other one?
[21:57] <towlie_> i like ubuntu
[21:58] <josvuk> Hello, I get the error lpstat: Connection refused. The printer was working and I don't know what happend now it is not working.
[21:58] <jorik> micahf: its like the difference between jpg and png, its both images, but not the same
[21:58] <ActionParsnip> micahf: do you have a windows system?
[21:58] <phaer> I used ubuntu karmics live cd to encrypt my home directory and now i want to mount it from another system. As far as i now ubuntu uses encfs to encrypt it, is this correct?
[21:59] <dropedrobarri> i have a problem wth XAMPP. After uncompressing 1.7.1 to /opt i run /opt/lampp/lampp start and i get a lot of errors. Xampp doesnt initiate MySQL, Apache or proFTPd. What is missing???
[21:59] <ActionParsnip> klown: then click properties to see if it gives any clues
[21:59] <guntbert> dropedrobarri: why don't you use !lamp ?
[21:59] <ActionParsnip> !xampp | dropedrobarri
[22:00] <klown> ActionParsnip, only close option it gives is transparency, but the icons still show.
[22:00] <ActionParsnip> klown: you should be able to remove all the icons you like
[22:01] <nmvictor> i have finally gotten the kannel to detect my modem, now i have something to query about this SMSC(Short Message Service Center) thingy, is it possible to get messages from the outside world into my computer through the modem, then route the messages to SMPPSimulator where my application has binded to?
[22:02] <bakarat> i can't get dual screen to work with the official nvidia drivers? there is no signal on the second screen, even though "nvidia-settings" picks up the screen and allows me to configure it. (note that the livecd can set up a cloned environment that works)
[22:02] <duffydack> Anyone else with a radeonHD card using fglrx, and it using xaa?
[22:02] <bakarat> any solutions?
[22:03] <elroacho> mythtv remote frontend (music and video) smb configuration help requested
[22:03] <Dr_Willis> bakarat:  i normally... install the nvidiadriovers  run 'gksudo nvidia- settings' tweak the configs.. save them.. and restart X.. thats abiout it
[22:03] <azrael_> I HATE UBUNTU
[22:03] <azrael_> i feel better now
[22:03] <Dr_Willis> bakarat:  heres my xorg.conf ---> http://pastebin.com/f79f2c648
[22:03] <micahf> so can I mount the iso and then dd from the mounted directory?
[22:03] <Dr_Willis> azrael_:  demand a refund.
[22:03] <azrael_> i will
[22:04] <Sabre-night> Dr_Willis, LOL
[22:04] <azrael_> i paid 250 on shiping
[22:04] <micahf> cause I can't use unetboot on mac os x
[22:04] <Dr_Willis> micahf:  youa re not confuiseing the unr.IMG with the .iso are you?
[22:04] <azrael_> 2.50
[22:04] <Dr_Willis> micahf:  the old release had a unr.img   the newre release has a unr.iso
[22:04] <azrael_> i can't get a flash player to work
[22:04] <micahf> Dr_Willis: well to be honest, I'm using plain ubuntu
[22:04] <micahf> I have an iso
[22:04] <Moon_Doggy> is their a key mapping program like sharpkeys
[22:04] <m1r1> no sound problem on 9.10 x86 fresh install , any help is appriciated.
[22:05] <azrael_> is linux just super bad with flash?
[22:05] <Dr_Willis> micahf:  then you must use a proper tool.. OR you can install grub2  to the device and have grub2 boot the iso file. :)
[22:05] <azrael_> cus i've been trying to get it working all morning
[22:05] <Sabre-night> So, this may be a simple problem, but i couldn't find anything from googling, but when i try opening a new tab in firefox from a link most of the time it will open 2-3 tabs when i only wanted one opened, any advice?
[22:05] <Dr_Willis> azrael_:  i have no real issues with flash.
[22:05] <azrael_> lucky
[22:05] <Dr_Willis> azrael_:  i install ubuntu-restricted-extras and flash works.
[22:05] <Dr_Willis> azrael_:  how did you install flash?
[22:06] <azrael_> seach synaptic software
[22:06] <Dr_Willis> azrael_:  and what package did you install?
[22:06] <_rabe_> Dr_Willis, i need for the linux shell this what comes up when you start cmd.exe in windows
[22:06] <azrael_> flash player nonfreee
[22:06] <azrael_> and it will load but it blacks out
[22:07] <elroacho> can anyone help me with a smb file sharing for my mythtv
[22:07] <cafuego> flash is kind of crap, so that's not entirely surprising
[22:07] <ActionParsnip> azrael_: can you use: http://pastebin.com   to give the output of: dpkg -l | grep flash; dpkg -l | grep gnash; dpkg -l | grep swf
[22:07] <ActionParsnip> cafuego: works fine here :)
[22:08] <cafuego> ActionParsnip: Mind segfaults and dies at least once a day
[22:08] <elroacho> want to watch a ren and stimpy video upstairs
[22:08] <cafuego> (amd64)
[22:08] <Sabre-night> can anyone help with my firefox tabs issue?
[22:08] <Soubi_> Hi, someone can help me with a bash script error ?
[22:08] <ActionParsnip> cafuego: i use the 64bit alpha plugin under chromium, runs great
[22:08] <azrael_> huh?
[22:08] <zer0_mood> Hi aLL !! can someone suggest a channel where I can ask questions about java ?
[22:08] <guntbert> Soubi_: better success probably in #bash
[22:08] <azrael_> u lost me
[22:09] <Dr_Willis> #java perhaps zer0_mood
[22:09] <zer0_mood> ok lol
[22:09] <Soubi_> guntbert > Yeah, but the chan sleeps =)
[22:09] <cafuego> ActionParsnip: Mine's never worked with chromium; the segfaults are with firefox
[22:09] <ActionParsnip> azrael_: copy the command and paste it into terminal, when it finishes, copy the output and use the link to give the output without scolling the channel
[22:09] <ActionParsnip> cafuego: 64bit alpha or the one from the repos?
[22:09] <azrael_> ok
[22:09] <Dasda> Hey guys, im trying to boot from cd on a laptop But i keep getting just a blinking little line on the top left when i try to boot. Same thing happens with the hdd too. I dunno what the problem is
[22:10] <cafuego> ActionParsnip: Now I do have to say I don't care enough about it to see if I could make it not do poo.
[22:10] <cafuego> ActionParsnip: yeh
[22:10] <Wolf23> musictoto,  whats the code to convert from .mp3 to wav?
[22:10] <Dr_Willis> wow flash is working with  Chromiam here also.. and i dident do anything to it. :)
[22:10] <bakarat> Dr_Willis, well that didn't work :(
[22:10] <ActionParsnip> cafuego: your call, i recommend you try it
[22:10] <bakarat> Dr_Willis, no output at all
[22:10] <ActionParsnip> Dasda: did you md5 test the ISO you burned? Does the CD pass self verification?
[22:10] <Dr_Willis> bakarat:  assume people on irc have the attentioon span of a goldfish.... i dont rember what you were doing....
[22:11] <ActionParsnip> Dasda: did you test the ram?
[22:11] <ipatrol> I have a folder where chmod keeps failing silently, why
[22:11] <bakarat> Dr_Willis, hehe, the dual screen nvidia, you posted your xorg.conf
[22:11] <Dasda> no, i didnt md5
[22:11] <musictoto> Wolf23: look at http://freshmeat.net/projects/soundconverter/
[22:11] <azrael_> ok
[22:11] <Dr_Willis> bakarat:  odd. Im using that xorg.conf right now.
[22:11] <Dr_Willis> bakarat:  what video card?
[22:11] <Sabre-night> Can anyone help with my Firefox opening more than one tab when trying to open one tab from a bookmark or link?
[22:11] <Younder> ipatrol, who own's it

[22:11] <bakarat> Dr_Willis, 8600 GTS
[22:11] <Wolf23> musictoto,  no there is a ffmpeg option i cant remember?
[22:12] <ipatrol> Younder: root and src
[22:12] <Dr_Willis> bakarat:  Hmm 8800gtsxxx here
[22:12] <ActionParsnip> azrael_: copy the output to the pastebin and when you click paste the page will change and you can copy the new address of the pae in here
[22:12] <Younder> the sudo setup gives LIMITED acess to edit the source tree
[22:12] <ipatrol> I'm in /usr/src
[22:12] <ActionParsnip> pae == page
[22:12] <musictoto> Wolf23: ffmpeg -i file.mp3 file.wav
[22:12] <stew> ipatrol: that doesn't matter
[22:13] <bakarat> i can't get dual screen to work with the official nvidia drivers? there is no signal on the second screen, even though "nvidia-settings" picks up the screen and allows me to configure it. (note that the livecd can set up a cloned environment that works)
[22:13] <ipatrol> Why is sudo limited in the source tree?

[22:13] <ipatrol> stew: Younder says it is
[22:14] <locash> hi question about remoting into ubuntu server.  I have been able to establish a connection,  but cant interact with the remote computer.  I can see it's desktop just cant do anything.  remote computer is ubuntu server,  local is vista basic 64
[22:14] <stew> ipatrol: if this were a permissions problem (not being privileged enough to edit the permissions) you'd get a "Operation not permitted" error
[22:14] <ipatrol> stew: But it fails silently
[22:14] <mMezquitale> !bug
[22:14] <hyperstream> locash, can you ssh into the box?
[22:14] <musictoto> Wolf23: is that working ?
[22:14] <ActionParsnip> azrael_: sudo apt-get --purge remove flashplugin-nonfree gnash gnash-common gnash-cygnal mozilla-plugin-gnash; sudo apt-get --purge autoremove; sudo apt-get clean; sudo apt-get update; sudo apt-get install flashplugin-nonfree
[22:14] <plustax> Quick question. I am running ubuntu 9.10. How do I set my computer up so that when people vnc into my box, it's faster for them. IE: is there a place where I can remove the wallpaper etc etc.
[22:14] <locash> yeah i tried that also,  but same result
[22:14] <Sabre-night> Firefox help, anyone?
[22:14] <bakarat> are the nouveau drivers capable of dual screen?
[22:14] <elroacho> whats a good network activity utility for apache traffic for Ubuntu
[22:14] <plustax> also any other things that might speed up the process.
[22:15] <hamz1aatova1> how to make ubuntu one to backup by itself???
[22:15] <ActionParsnip> azrael_: you have WAY too many plugins for flash (more than ONE is bad) so that command will remove them ALL and then reinstall the one you need
[22:15] <guntbert> !vnc | plustax
[22:15] <jcc1> elroacho: have you tried tcpdump?
[22:15] <ipatrol> stew: AFAIK Ubuntu has a kernel extension that locks certain file's mode
[22:15] <stew> ipatrol: no, its doing the correct thing
[22:15] <azrael_> kk
[22:15] <elroacho> will try
[22:15] <stew> ipatrol: 0775 shouldn't change the permission but g-s should
[22:15] <hyperstream> locash, port forwarding required?
[22:15] <Wolf23> musictoto,  i have to install ffmpeg? and they i try
[22:15] <hyperstream> locash,  brb need to reboot.
[22:16] <ActionParsnip> azrael_: see how your huge output scrolled the hell out of te channel, If you'd used pastebin it would have been output as ONE line which would be a hyperlink to a page
[22:16] <musictoto> Wolf23: yes indeed
[22:16] <ipatrol> stew: Neither works
[22:16] <jcc1> elroacho: just monitor port 80
[22:16] <stew> ipatrol: read the second paragraph in the "SETUID AND SETGID BITS" section of the chmod manpage
[22:16] <locash> not sure if its required but I have ports forwarded
[22:16] <Sabre-night> Firefox, Multiple tabs opening... help?
[22:16] <ActionParsnip> azrael_: dont scroll the channel, its not fair to other users
[22:16] <ActionParsnip> Sabre-night: kill the app
[22:16] <azrael_> ok agian srry
[22:16] <strop> hey, how do i make 'custom' modules work over kernel updates? (when kernel gets automatically updated, modules from previous version directory are no longer loading at startup)
[22:17] <Sabre-night> ActionParsnip, .. no when i open a link in a new tab it opens like 2-3 tabs, instead of one.
[22:17] <phaer> bakarat: Yes they are
[22:17] <ActionParsnip> Sabre-night: then run: mv ~/.mozilla ~/.mozilla_old   then rerun the app
[22:17] <locash> sabre,  just try removing and reinstalling your firerfox
[22:17] <phaer> bakarat: In fact im using them with two screens at the moment :)
[22:17] <elroacho> i use 8080
[22:17] <jcc1> Sabre-night: you aren't double-clicking, I hope
[22:17] <phantom> hey all
[22:17] <ActionParsnip> Sabre-night: if its ok then your profile is bad, if its still bad then the app is bad
[22:17] <Sabre-night> jcc1,  nope.
[22:18] <bakarat> phaer, can i use the experimental driver in the repo's?
[22:18] <jcc1> just checking :-)
[22:18] <elroacho> but how do I start it from terminal...it is installed
[22:18] <bakarat> phaer, (the problem being ic an't get dual screen to work with the nvidia driver)
[22:18] <ActionParsnip> bakarat: tried the nvidia ppa?
[22:18] <locash> bakarat,  I have noticed the nvidia driver for 8800 gtx is pretty buggy
[22:18] <ActionParsnip> bakarat: can install a newer driver
[22:18] <jcc1> elroacho: are you talking about tcpdump?
[22:18] <mMezquitale> you can no longer file a bug report using launchpad.net????
[22:18] <ActionParsnip> !bug | mMezquitale
[22:18] <ipatrol> stew: g-s finally worked!
[22:19] <ipatrol> thx
[22:19] <ActionParsnip> bakarat: https://launchpad.net/~nvidia-vdpau/+archive/ppa
[22:19] <burzki> any ubuntu/fedora dual boots here?
[22:19] <Wolf23> musictoto,  thanx it works, but the size 7mb , and the mp3 was 520kb
[22:19] <elroacho> tcpdump: no suitable device found
[22:19] <azrael_> still not working
[22:19] <phaer> bakarat: I don't now, i'm using it on archlinux.org (git checkout from 2009-11-01)
[22:19] <rahduke> how can i set a samba drive so that everyone on my network has read/write access... even thru windows.... I've checked the box that gives everyone readwrite access but I still cannot write to the drive on windows thru samba
[22:19] <mMezquitale> ActionParsnip, i know, i'm at the launchpad site, the link to report a bug sends you to the forum which is how I got there in the first place
[22:19] <ActionParsnip> azrael_: did you restart your browser?
[22:19] <elroacho> ran in terminal
[22:19] <guntbert> elroacho: tcpdump -i <interface>
[22:19] <jcc1> you have to give it the interface you want it to listen to along with the port, try "man tcpdump"
[22:20] <azrael_> yea
[22:20] <macman_> is slackware.com down ?
[22:20] <guntbert> !ot
[22:20] <elroacho> am I this stupid?  what interface?
[22:20] <ActionParsnip> azrael_: ok can you rerun the first command I gave and use http://pastebin.com this time to give the output
[22:20] <mMezquitale> slackware is up and running
[22:20] <jcc1> as in "sudo tcpdump -i eth0 -p 80
[22:20] <noob> has anyone figured out how to mount a windows 7 network drive in ubuntu 9.10?  I always get an error message "unable to mount location".  I can do this in 9.04 however.
[22:20] <elroacho> thanks
[22:20] <macman_> lmao guntbert sorry about that .. im actually on ubuntu
[22:21] <ActionParsnip> macman_: http://downforeveryoneorjustme.com/
[22:21] <bakarat> ActionParsnip, you think the 195.30 driver will make much difference?
[22:21] <ActionParsnip> macman_: the question isnt ubuntu related
[22:21] <ActionParsnip> bakarat: possibly
[22:21] <guntbert> macman_: doesn't matter what OS you're on - the topic of the question matters
[22:21] <rahduke>  how can i set a samba drive so that everyone on my network has read/write access... even thru windows.... I've checked the box that gives everyone readwrite access but I still cannot write to the drive on windows thru samba
[22:21] <elroacho> for me it's sudo tcpdump -i eth0 -p 8080 for mythweb
[22:21] <azrael_> can i get the command again?
[22:21] <ActionParsnip> bakarat: theres also later versions of 180, 185, 190
[22:22] <ActionParsnip> azrael_: use up cursor in terminal
[22:22] <jcc1> elroacho: there are also other options too that you can add like src and/or destination, etc
[22:22] <elroacho> sean@seans-room:~$ sudo tcpdump -i eth0 -p 8080
[22:22] <elroacho> [sudo] password for sean:
[22:22] <elroacho> tcpdump: syntax error
[22:22] <bakarat> ActionParsnip, any clue as to why the livecd can set up a clone environment out of the box? does it not use the nvidia drivers? or different settings?
[22:22] <azrael_> grr
[22:22] <hyperstream> ActionParsnip, LOL
[22:22] <sbwhite0> Hello, I'm new to Ubuntu and I have a couple issues I'm trying to work out.
[22:22] <goose> I need to identify what RSA key to use when doing Places > Connect to Server
[22:22] <hyperstream> sbwhite0, issues are ?
[22:23] <gazel> hi frist time here, how do i register? thanks
[22:23] <jcc1> elroacho: that was a quick example, read the man page, there are a ton of examples at the bottom and basic syntax at the top
[22:23] <ActionParsnip> bakarat: not sure, i havent used dual monitors. I have 1 monitor for 3 systems
[22:23] <azrael_> wth nothing changed
[22:23] <azrael_> their all still there
[22:23] <elroacho> ok
[22:23] <sbwhite0> I'm getting a unable to locate the api on firefox
[22:23] <jcc1> OK :-)
[22:23] <guntbert> !register | gazel
[22:23] <locash> hyperstream, think you have any pointers on how to actually make remoting work on ubuntu server
[22:23] <ActionParsnip> azrael_: uninstall ALL the packages listed there
[22:24] <noob> has anyone figured out how to mount a windows 7 network drive in ubuntu 9.10?  I always get an error message "unable to mount location", even with samba installed.  I can do this in 9.04 however.
[22:24] <itsnotstalking> ActionParsnip, do you use hardware or software to manage the 3 systems with the same display?
[22:24] <ActionParsnip> azrael_: use synaptic or whatever, if you have more than one flash plugin you will get zero flash
[22:24] <ActionParsnip> itsnotstalking: ssh
[22:24] <hyperstream> locash, ok so you have a remote ubuntu install, and your trying to access it yes? is ssh setup? is it behind a router/firewall?
[22:24] <ActionParsnip> itsnotstalking: or web interfaces
[22:24] <Sabre-night> ActionParsnip,  how do i run mv ~/mozilla ~/.mozilla_old? I would assume thats a terminal bit
[22:24] <remco_> elroacho: think its "port" not "-p" ..
[22:24] <Dr_Willis> bakarat:  without the actual nvidia drivers installed  - what happens with 2+ monitors - depends on how the chipset/card is setup in its firmware.
[22:25] <itsnotstalking> ActionParsnip, ic, my uncle has some sort of hardware device that switches what system his ui hardware is hooked up too
[22:25] <sbwhite0> here is the error that appears
[22:25] <sbwhite0> We were unable to locate the API to request site settings. Please see below for debugging information. 	HTTP Response Status Code: 0 	Trying API autodiscovery:The API is currently located at http://localhost:8081/deki.

[22:25] <PolK_> Sorry for asking again, can i have the adress to the french server? :x
[22:25] <locash> hyperstream,  it is behind the same firewall as the computer trying to remote into it, my problem is I can get to it,  and even see the desktop,  no control.  if I click something close the connection,  then reconnect,  what I clicked on has opened.  I just cant do it while watching
[22:26] <elroacho> ahh, ok
[22:26] <elroacho> thanks
[22:26] <hyperstream> locash, so its on the LAN ? same network ? accessable by for example 192.168.0.x
[22:26] <green453> During update, new kernel version tried to install, but failed to configure properly due to postinst hook script that calls update-grub; error is 'grub-probe: error: cannot find a device for /.'   Running Ubuntu Karmic, booting diskless using pxe, not sure why grub even needs to be invoked. Please advise.
[22:26] <rahduke> how can i set a samba drive so that everyone on my network has read/write access... even thru windows.... I've checked the box that gives everyone readwrite access but I still cannot write to the drive on windows thru samba
[22:26] <jcc1> locash: what are you using, to do this?
[22:26] <bastidra1or> PolK_: #ubuntu-fr
[22:26] <ActionParsnip> itsnotstalking: i have a lan sdware is a bit surplus
[22:26] <guntbert> Sabre-night: in terminal - yes, you can use <tab> to autocomplete filenames, and its mv ~/.mozilla ... (don't omit the dot)
[22:26] <locash> hypestream,  yes  local ip
[22:26] <azrael_> k
[22:26] <azrael_> all removed
[22:27] <locash> hyperstream,  I have also set up a ssh tunnel to it,  and tried accessing it as if I am not behing the same firewall
[22:27] <elroacho> think i got it to work
[22:27] <Sabre-night> guntbert,  ah i must have missed that.
[22:27] <elroacho> just didn't set port
[22:27] <guntbert> Sabre-night: the dot "hides" the file
[22:27] <elroacho> guess it's defualt 80, but my mythweb is on 8080
[22:27] <ActionParsnip> azrael_: ok now run: sudo apt-get --purge autoremove; sudo apt-get install flashplugin-nonfree
[22:27] <iceroot> rahduke: logged in with windows and not using the guest-account?
[22:27] <iceroot> rahduke: for connecting with samba
[22:27] <locash> jcc1,  vnc on local,  and remote desktop,  or what ever its called on ubuntu machine
[22:28] <rahduke> iceroot: yes, logged in as a user in windows
[22:28] <rahduke> iceroot: who has admin rights
[22:28] <iceroot> rahduke: and loogged in with samba as a user?
[22:28] <Sabre-night> guntbert,  so how should i put this in to the terminal?; run mv ~/.mozilla ~/.mozilla_old or am i missing sopmething?
[22:28] <jcc1> ahh check the settings on the remote, by default you can watch but not interact
[22:28] <iceroot> rahduke: doesnt matter if it is a windows-admin
[22:28] <iceroot> rahduke: its important that the user on samba-site can read/write
[22:28] <locash> jcc1,  i have remote set to watch desktop,  and control desktop
[22:28] <rahduke> iceroot: i'm not sure what you mean when you say logged in with samba as a user... how would u do that in windows
[22:29] <iceroot> rahduke: how you access the share on windows-site?
[22:29] <rahduke> iceroot: the shared folder is a drive on my Ubuntu media server
