[03:19] <genjix>  /drive/C i thinks
[03:19] <nickrud> lsth: you don't boot to a graphical login? What do you have in your .xsession or .xinitrc?
[03:20] <peterdemin> How to make GNU emacs22 understand utf-8? I tried a lot in ~/.emacs, but always got rectangles :(
[03:20] <lsth> i do but i am booting to terminal to debug
[03:20] <proprietarysucks> andrew__: like I said, 90% sure that wont work but go ahead and try, it wont mess anything up
[03:20] <GiddyKong> heya ^^ how would i change the text color on the panels?
[03:20] <lsth> nickrud can i pm you
[03:20] <nickrud> lsth: and the second question?
[03:20] <nickrud> lsth: I'd rather stay here, someone may see something I don't (happens often)
[03:20] <lsth> dont have either one of those
[03:20] <Flyerfye> Flyerfye: what?
[03:20] <deniz__> genjix, i have the location (directory) line text now (not graphical button) so can u give me the location for me to copy and paste?
[03:21] <andrew__> proprietarysucks, what about something like this: https://www.dealextreme.com/details.dx/sku.4681
[03:21] <nickrud> lsth: that could cause issues.   What kind of video card do you have?
[03:21] <andrew__> proprietarysucks, its going into my receiver then out to the tv
[03:21] <qraebjoa> GiddyKong, check the hole system-menu :-) youll find it
[03:22] <lsth> nickrud i dunno its a macbook pro. owrk out of the books
[03:22] <proprietarysucks> andrew__: I'll show you what I had that worked for sure
[03:22] <lsth> it worked out of the box ib ubuntu
[03:22] <lsth> in
[03:22] <nickrud> GiddyKong: you would create a file ~/.gtkrc-2.0 . You can put a lot of stuff in there, some of which change panel text colors
[03:22] <lsth> nickrud i dont think i ever had those files
[03:22] <cens0red> anyone else using iceape browser?
[03:23] <nickrud> lsth: hm. macbook, and you said it worked out of the box in ubuntu. This is ubuntu, right?
[03:23] <jack-desktop> googling, are you using xchat?
[03:23] <lsth> yes
[03:23] <proprietarysucks> andrew__: this isn't the exact one but it was like this: http://www.ichq.com/images/imagecache/grntec_gvc1000.jpg
[03:23] <googling> jack-desktop, yes ... I just registered ... I can't believe my previous nick was already registered
[03:23] <nickrud> lsth: then try resetting graphics to default:   sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg , reboot into graphical login.
[03:24] <deniz__> k, i found it in google (/home/username/.wine/)
[03:24] <jack-desktop> googling, right click my name in this chat line and click "open dialog window"
[03:24] <nickrud> lsth: make that sudo dpkg-reconfigure -pcritical xserver-xorg
[03:24] <lsth> will that affect compiz
[03:24] <andrew__> proprietarysucks, i have an rf modulator, with that i could get a picture, but it was really messed up
[03:24] <nickrud> lsth: yup.
[03:25] <lsth> then ill hold off on that
[03:25] <nickrud> GiddyKong: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/55941/ , this is how I get white text in my panel
[03:25] <nickrud> lsth: compiz comes last. Reset to normal, get it working, then add back stuff till you find the problem, and then fix it
[03:26] <andrew__> proprietarysucks, thanks for the input, ill try to find one of those
[03:26] <supbro> .
[03:26] <lsth> unless i can undo whatever caused this in the first place
[03:26] <peterdemin> Where i can find help on setting up emacs22?
[03:26] <andrew__> anyone use linuxmce, elisa, mythbuntu or some other media center type distro?
[03:26] <nickrud> lsth: well, you haven't been able to find the change you made. So, basic troubleshooting is to start at the other end. Your choice, though.
[03:27] <lsth> nah
[03:27] <supbro> is there a pchelp chan here at free node? do you guys mind if i ask a pc issue question?
[03:27] <lsth> nickrud if i have to do that id rather get rid of ubuntu altogether
[03:27] <nickrud> supbro: windows, no

[03:30] <proprietarysucks> tarelerulz: mencoder konverter avidemux transcode
[03:30] <nickrud> Hoarde:  alt-f2  gtk-window-decorator --replace   should put it back
[03:31] <nickrud> Hoarde: or emerald --replace if you use emerald

[03:34] <draicone> Is there anyway to upgrade feisty to gutsy using the ISO?
[03:35] <draicone> My burner's broken and I'm trying to avoid downloading another 700mb
[03:35] <psychoman> u can't update using update manager?
[03:35] <draicone> With another 663mb download, yes, I can upgrade using the update manager. But I've got the ISO here, so I don't see why I shouldn't use it.
[03:36] <draicone> I've tried mounting it but I can't mount it anywhere in /media
[03:36] <psychoman> u can't burn it to a disk?
[03:36] <psychoman> or no disks?
[03:36] <draicone> No functioning burner =P
[03:36] <psychoman> that sux
[03:36] <draicone> Actually, wait, I can mount it to /media/cdrom1
[03:37] <draicone> It just doesn't recognise the disc or autorun whatever it should
[03:37] <cens0red> draicone yah, just download the "alternate" disk, mount it as an iso, and use it to upgrade.
[03:37] <cens0red> worked for me.
[03:37] <draicone> cens0red: I don't think I have the "alternate" disk
[03:37] <cens0red> draicone just download the image. then mount it.
[03:37] <draicone> What does the update manager do - just upgrade all the packages?
[03:38] <draicone> cens0red: I've got the normal image, just not the alternate one
[03:38] <cens0red> draicone yeah.
[03:38] <cens0red> draicone you can't download the alternate one?
[03:38] <psychoman> I dunno I'm running gutsy now from upgrade from fiesty
[03:38] <draicone> If I do that I might as well use the upgrade manager
[03:38] <Hoarde> hey guys... metacity --replace worked! ... however... every time I restart the machine do I need to do it again all the time? (restart makes it not work again)
[03:38] <computerex> Does anyone know of a good howto to installing kqemu on gutsy?
[03:38] <draicone> And download another 700mb
[03:38] <psychoman> no hoarde
[03:39] <cens0red> draicone upgrade managers worked fine for me, on the last two upgrades I've done.
[03:39] <psychoman> when it happened to me i only had to do it that one time
[03:39] <draicone> If the update manager just updates the packages, can I point the update manager at the mounted ISO and tell it to update using those files?
[03:39] <_peter> Hoarde, just set None effects
[03:39] <bruenig> draicone: no
[03:40] <Hoarde> effects is set to "none"
[03:40] <psychoman> I think the update manager did more cuz you have to have all the updates inorder to upgrade
[03:40] <computerex> anyone? Tutorial on installing kqemu for gutsy?
[03:42] <bazhang> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WindowsXPUnderQemuHowTo  this may help computerex
[03:42] <Hoarde> I'll try another restart to see if it does it again
[03:42] <Hoarde> brb
[03:43] <latansa> hai
[03:43] <computerex> Thanks bazhang. I'll check it out
[03:43] <bazhang> no worries computerex ;]
[03:44] <AaAAA> hi
[03:44] <AaAAA> :)
[03:44] <fairelys> hola
[03:44] <bazhang> https://saschashideout.de/blog/2007/oct/27/correctly-install-kqemu-on-gutsy-gibbon/ computerex this too ;]
[03:44] <Pwhdavey> On Ubuntu... do I just insert the printer USB cord into the computer and Linux will find and install the drivers automatically?
[03:44] <fairelys> estoy empezando
[03:44] <Pwhdavey> ;P The physical drivers that came on the CD with the printer are lost.
[03:45] <Pwhdavey> And although they are on the desktop... I tried putting them on a flash drive and copying them to my laptop, but that didn't work.
[03:45] <fairelys> quisiera q me sieran una ayuda de como instalar los paquetes
[03:45] <Pwhdavey> *coughs*
[03:45] <computerex> bazhang - Thanks a lot :D
[03:45] <bazhang> spanish fairelys? /j #ubuntu-es ;]
[03:46] <FrostRat> draicone: I think the update manager allows you to add locations with packages you want... so if you mount the ISO, you might be able to point it to that location
[03:46] <Pwhdavey> On Ubuntu... do I just insert the printer USB cord into the computer and Linux will find and install the drivers automatically?
[03:46] <draicone> FrostRat: Would that override the default web-based source when I run the update wizard?
[03:46] <bazhang> Pwhdavey: Linux will have most of them--what printer
[03:47] <draicone> FrostRat: Or would I have to update all the packages to the 7.10 versions and then let the update wizard take care of the rest?
[03:47] <Pwhdavey> bazhang: Canon MP110
[03:47] <draicone> Hmm... is there any way to convert the normal ISO to an alternate ISO?
[03:49] <bazhang> http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=289319 Pwhdavey look at entry number six on this thread
[03:49] <FrostRat> draicone: hmmm... good question. :)  I guess you'd have to go through the proper dist-upgrade steps, but that's if this idea would even work.
[03:49] <codename> so
[03:50] <codename> is there any programs for ubuntu
[03:50] <FrostRat> draicone: I've never tried anything like that... I'm lucky enough to have truly unlimited bandwidth. :D
[03:50] <codename> that makes it look like ur hacking
[03:50] <codename> kinda like
[03:50] <codename> cappuichino
[03:50] <FrostRat> codename: yes
[03:50] <bazhang> codename: easy on the enter key
[03:50] <codename> Sorry.
[03:50] <codename> FrostRat, do you have any suggestions?
[03:50] <draicone> FrostRat: Well, I'm halfway up a hill five kms from my exchange and barely averaging 48kB/s :( It's not too bad though. I used to be on dialup.
[03:52] <psychoman> it took me an hour to update from fiesty to gutsy
[03:52] <FrostRat> draicone: Ouch! Honestly, if you've got the bandwidth (even without the speed), it might be a good idea to just let it run overnight and not worry that you'll mess stuff up
[03:52] <draicone> Hmm, I suppose
[03:53] <draicone> Bandwidth isn't a problem, it's unmetered from my ISP mirror
[03:53] <draicone> I might just download the ISO overnight
[03:53] <bazhang> the alternate would be a good choice draicone
[03:53] <FrostRat> codename: I've seen something like that, didn't pay much attention to it, though.  There's a thread on ubuntuforums where a guy wants to make his desktop look like he's a hardcore hacker. :D  Funny stuff. They wrote some scripts that you might like.
[03:54] <FrostRat> draicone: Good luck!  It's late, I'm out.
[03:54] <draicone> I'll just download the alternate overnight then -- or I could just let the update manager do its stuff tonight
[03:54] <draicone> Thanks FrostRat, bazhang, bruenig, cens0red, psychoman
[03:55] <psychoman> yw
[03:55] <bruenig> hmmm

[04:16] <kruqnut> well the drives on my windows system are shared via the windows interface
[04:16] <kruqnut> if i plug the computers together will ubuntu live cd automatically detect the other computer?

[04:30] <Crell> Hi all.  I have an odd problem on my Kubuntu Gutsy laptop.  When it has a net connection, the apache server on it (I do development) works fine.  If there is no net connection, though, apache shuts down.  That makes it difficult to do any decent development when I don't have wifi nearby. :-)  Is there a way to tell apache to always run, even if there is no active network connection?
[04:30] <Armi1> !wacom
[04:30] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about wacom - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[04:30] <googling> manic12, you could try sudo apt-get install xorg-dev
[04:30] <Armi1> !graphire
[04:30] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about graphire - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[04:31] <Crell> Correction, actually.  apache is still running, it just always fails with a "could not connect to host localhost".
[04:31] <blogcrawler> how can I change the default pdf viewer from document viewer to adobe reader? I have installed Adobe reader but when I right-click on a pdf file and go to open with tab, it doesn't allow me to change the default pdf viewer
[04:31] <manic12> thanks googling
[04:32] <googling> Crell, sounds like the local interface is not up, try sudo ifup lo
[04:32] <Crell> googling: "interface lo already configured".
[04:33] <googling> Crell, do you have an entry in /etc/hosts for localhost which maps to <IP_ADDRESS> ?
[04:33] <Crell> googling: Yes.
[04:34] <Crell> Both the IPv4 and IPv6 versions, although I doubt that matters.
[04:34] <googling> Crell, but you're online now so the full network is up, or is this on another computer?
[04:34] <savagenator> hello
[04:34] <savagenator> i have a good question!!!
[04:34] <Crell> I'm on my desktop here.
[04:35] <sladigar> can LAME be used for .mp4 creation?
[04:35] <savagenator> fedora vs ubuntu, why does fedora use less memory, and run much faster?
[04:35] <savagenator> now go!
[04:35] <erawfish_> sladigar: no afaik. mencoder can however
[04:35] <savagenator> without rush, and a please
[04:35] <Crell> The laptop currently has wireless disabled, apache running, but no love from http://localhost/

[04:35] <ubotu> savagenator: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome!
[04:35] <googling> Crell, and when you did the ifup lo your laptop was not online?
[04:35] <erawfish_> savagenator: stop the trlling
[04:35] <savagenator> ok, thank you
[04:35] <sorsis> where do i set automatic app startups in ubuntu?
[04:36] <Crell> googling: Correct.
[04:36] <googling> Crell, can you telnet to localhost?
[04:37] <Crell> To port 80?  Yes.
[04:37]  * Crell scratches his head.
[04:38] <SJrX> Are there any possible patent issues with an ubuntu default install
[04:38] <googling> Crell, this has got me stumped ... I'm going to bring up a VM, drop the network, and see what it does ... it will take a few minutes
[04:38] <Crell> googling: One sec, this is interesting...
[04:38] <SJrX> like packages like rdesktop which are included has some potential patent issues.
[04:38] <Crell> It looks like Firefox works, but Konqueror does not.
[04:39] <SJrX> Are there other packages that are in the default install that have patent issues
[04:39] <Crell> Which is... confusing.
[04:39] <Ashfire908> How to i use ssh, rsync, or other programs using ssh without having to enter a password? (to be used when doing a scheduled task)
[04:39] <googling> Crell, but I thought you said apache stops, sounds like it's running
[04:40] <Crell> Yeah, I thought it did, but I corrected that.  The process is apparently still running.
[04:40] <manic12> where would I find a GL include directory?
[04:40] <Crell> And, interestingly, public_html dirs didn't used to work, but now they do.
[04:40] <mjw-> !gobuntu | SJrX
[04:40] <ubotu> SJrX: gobuntu is a freedom-focused flavour of Ubuntu intended for experienced Linux enthusiasts. See http://www.ubuntu.com/products/whatisubuntu/gobuntu for more information and download mirrors..
[04:40] <Crell> So it is only an issue in Konqueror, it looks like.  At least for right now.
[04:40] <Crell> I wonder...
[04:40] <SJrX> thanks mjw-
[04:41] <FFEMTcJ> im trying to get my bluetooth keyboard/mouse to work.. i got the keyboard running, however i still cant get the mouse running.. it showes up in the bluetooth bonded devices, but it doesnt actually work.. i have followed the guide on ubuntu docs, but still can't get it to work.. If i remember correctly, the last time i did it, i had to hard code it.. anyone have any suggestions?
[04:41] <googling> Crell, no idea then :(
[04:42] <Crell> Hrm.
[04:42] <Crell> Well, I guess I can use firefox on an airplane.  I'm just worried about the "doctor's office effect". :-)
[04:42] <googling> Crell, do you happen to have a proxy configured for konqueror? maybe that's upsetting it?
[04:43] <Crell> Not that I'm aware of, but I'll double check.
[04:43] <Crell> Nope, no proxy.
[04:43] <googling> Crell, in what way does konqueror complain?
[04:44] <Crell> "An error occurred while loading http://localhost/: Could not connect to host http://localhost/."

[04:44] <kruqnut> ok googling
[04:45] <googling> Crell, what if you point it at http://<IP_ADDRESS> ?
[04:45] <kruqnut> i couldn't get samba to work i guess, but i did see the computer in the network tab
[04:45] <Crell> Same error.
[04:45] <kruqnut> but when i clicked on it to see files, it asked for a password etc
[04:45] <kruqnut> but i don't know what the passowrd is lol
[04:45] <googling> kruqnut, hang on a sec
[04:46] <googling> Crell, you could try running tcpdump on the lo interface
[04:46] <[Lowkey]> Can someone help me?
[04:46] <[Lowkey]> :)
[04:46] <bombi> hi anyone got any exp with foremost data recovery?
[04:47] <Crell> If I am doing it correctly, it shows nothing.
[04:47] <googling> kruqnut, can you recreate the share on the windows machine? (and thus know the password this time :)
[04:47] <Crell> "sudo tcpdump -i lo" ?
[04:47] <Crell> Ah, yep.
[04:47] <kruqnut> there was no password
[04:48] <Crell> I get a crapload of data if I use firefox, and nothing at all if I use Konqueror.
[04:48] <kruqnut> i just right clicked the hard drive and went to sharing and security
[04:48] <googling> Crell, yes, that's the syntax ... there's something else impeding konqueror here, but I have no idea what it is :(
[04:48] <kruqnut> then clicked share, then allow read/write
[04:48] <kruqnut> and thats it
[04:48] <kruqnut> i never set a password
[04:48]  * Crell cries.
[04:48] <Frogzoo> [Lowkey]: we don't know
[04:49] <googling> kruqnut, sorry ... it will be the username and password for the user you are logged in as (and created the share as)
[04:49] <stinger_au> Hi all
[04:49] <googling> Crell, maybe a kde forum or channel could help?
[04:50] <kruqnut> woo, just crashed
[04:50] <NemesisD> anyone know how to get scsi passthrough working in ubuntu?
[04:50] <kruqnut> anyways, i never set any password
[04:50] <googling> kruqnut, when it asks for the password (from smbclient) you can try just hitting return
[04:51] <kruqnut> i did
[04:51] <stinger_au> I been trying to install ubuntu 7.10 and it keeps stalling on "loading model "ide-floppy" for "Linux IDE floppy" - so i decided to un plug my floppy drive thinking this might fix it but still stalling on this stage. This is during the install wizard not sure why its getting held up here any ideas ?
[04:51] <kruqnut> it had a spot for Host: Domain: and password:
[04:51] <kruqnut> host: was filled in with "ubuntu"
[04:51] <kruqnut> domain: was "MSHOME"
[04:52] <kruqnut> and password: was empty
[04:52] <kruqnut> i tried just hitting enter and it didn't work
[04:52] <Paper_App> join #ubuntu-es
[04:52] <googling> kruqnut, host should be the host name for your windows system
[04:53] <kruqnut> the name of the computer?
[04:53] <qiansan> quit
[04:53] <googling> kruqnut, yes
[04:54] <Kuli> net
[04:54] <kruqnut> ok ill see if that helps
[04:54] <googling> kruqnut, I can't get that dialog box here, so I can't see what you're seeing. I can only use smbclient

[05:02] <hp> bazhand: actually, it keeps freezing after i restarting the computer
[05:02] <bazhang> hp you mean when it did a cd check? you should check the iso md5 sum then try burning at a lower speed
[05:02] <googling> kruqnut, do you have a hostname for your ubuntu system
[05:02] <hp> bazhand: i burned it at the slowest speed posible
[05:02] <Lowkey_> Can anybody possibly help me with laptop wireless?

[05:05] <bazhang> zozobra not sure about that; some would say it is unsafe
[05:05] <CVD-PR>  q hay
[05:05] <kruqnut> hmmm
[05:06] <googling> kruqnut, I'm not sure ... to see what shares are available you could try smbclient -L \\\\system - this will show if basic connectivity is there

[05:08] <Roooty> Hi I have to Reinstall Gutsy but the partitioners on the LIve CD / Alt CD just freeze up. What do I do?
[05:08] <SuperLag> regeya: ruby++
[05:08] <ph0rensic> Roooty, you could try another partitioner
[05:08] <Jack_Sparrow> Roooty, Try the gparted livecd
[05:09] <Jack_Sparrow> !gparted
[05:09] <ubotu> GParted is a !GUI partitioning program. Type « sudo apt-get install gparted » in a console to install it - A GParted "live" CD is available at http://gparted-livecd.tuxfamily.org/

[05:09] <Mega_byte> hi, I installed wubi (ubuntu 7.04) everything was fine, but now when I boot it says /bin/sh: can't acces tty: job control turned off and won't let me login... what could cause this?
[05:09] <ph0rensic> hey nickrud :-)
[05:09] <joh6nn> Mega_byte: that's a fairly common problem; you can find threads on it at the ubuntu forums
[05:09] <Jack_Sparrow> Mega_byte, Wubi isnt supported here
[05:09] <nickrud> ph0rensic: hi
[05:10] <Strawberryjam> ok...does anybody know if Ubuntu has support for EMU 1212 under ALSA? Without the Microdock that is.
[05:10] <Roooty> Thanks for the responses. Can I install without partitioning? The drive is ALReady partitioned correctly
[05:10] <nickrud> Jack_Sparrow: that is great news ;)
[05:10] <Mega_byte> joh6nn, I already read the threads, it's why I'm here
[05:10] <Jack_Sparrow> nickrud, It is a terrible way to install ubuntu anyhow
[05:10] <Mega_byte> Jack_Sparrow, Wubi is Ubuntu 7.04, so this problem should be same
[05:10] <joh6nn> Mega_byte: you tried the kernel boot options and kernel modules?
[05:10] <nickrud> Jack_Sparrow: agreed.
[05:10] <ph0rensic> Jack_Sparrow, Yes its worse than running it in a VM
[05:10] <Mega_byte> joh6nn, could you please tell me how to access them?
[05:11] <Jack_Sparrow> Mega_byte, NO it isnt the same as a regular install

[05:12] <mrunagi> !investigate
[05:12] <ubotu> Please investigate with me only in /msg or in #ubuntu-bots (type also /msg ubotu Bot). Don't use commands in the public channels if you don't know if they really exist. Also avoid adding joke/useless factoids.
[05:12] <Jack_Sparrow> ph0rensic, Yes it is another version of a vm... but has problems of its own that are not due to ubuntu
[05:12] <regeya> does anyone answer anything any more or does everyone just use the bot and tell people to bugger off and look elsewhere
[05:12] <triorieel> how do I get the current source of the kernel used in my ubuntu?
[05:12] <SuperLag> Any of you guys put Ubuntu on an EEEpc?
[05:13] <Jack_Sparrow> !build-essential
[05:13] <ubotu> Compiling software from source? Read the tips at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CompilingSoftware (But remember to search for pre-built !packages first)

[05:13] <lorenzo_> hi, aMule keeps crashing. I am running ubuntu gutsy 64, the version from synaptic would crash so I have downloaded the 64bit version of amule from getdeb, but it hasnt helped. any suggestions? thanks a lot
[05:13] <ph0rensic> Jack_Sparrow, Yes I definitely would not recommend that installation method to anyone
[05:13] <joh6nn> Mega_byte: when you turn the computer on, you'll see something that basically says "press a key to see the grub menu".  do that, and at the menu, press E to edit the first line of the menu.  you can follow the forum instructions from there
[05:13] <SuperLag> Draco: How well does it work? Any missing functionality?
[05:13] <[Hardy]TuTUXG> ph0rensic, not really.. just need their repo
[05:13] <Draco> SuperLag: only problem is the kb is way too small
[05:13] <nickrud> triorieel: sudo apt-get install linux-source
[05:13] <Mega_byte> joh6nn, thank you
[05:14] <SuperLag> Draco: :)
[05:14] <joh6nn> Mega_byte: : ) good luck
[05:14] <triorieel> nickrud: thank you
[05:14] <Jack_Sparrow> nickrud, He may just need build-essential
[05:14] <nickrud> triorieel: that does assume you're using the latest kernel version

[05:14] <nickrud> Jack_Sparrow: he may only need the headers, also. But he did ask for the current source :)

[05:16] <ph0rensic> xeenan, can you try to install via restricted driver manager?'
[05:16] <Starnestommy> xeenan, in a terminal, sudo sh /path/to/file.run
[05:16] <joh6nn> so, as an example, "tput setaf 1" for the color red, isn't being honored
[05:16] <ph0rensic> xeenan, it should work better than installing it via the .run file
[05:16] <triorieel> Flannel:  sry, the link went ont eh enxt line and didn't notice it
[05:16] <ere4si> joh6nn, I've heard it ignores some bash profiles but should use bashrc...
[05:16] <nickrud> xeenan: that's not a good way to install the ati driver, a sec
[05:17] <ph0rensic> Starnestommy, it should probably have to be chmod +x too though eh
[05:17] <nickrud> xeenan: are you just trying to get 3d running, or are you using the one from the ati site for a particular reason?
[05:17] <ph0rensic> nickrud, I suggested the proprietary driver manager
[05:17] <xeenan> well i did it via driver manager but the 3d test failed
[05:17] <joh6nn> ere4si: yeah, it's loading the bashrc.  i can tell, because it puts all the right information in my prompt.  it just doesn't set my prompt to the color i've chosen
[05:17] <Jack_Sparrow> triorieel, What are you trying to build or compile
[05:17] <nickrud> ph0rensic: good choice
[05:18] <xeenan> trying to get the 3d running
[05:18] <Strawberryjam> i'll be back in a sec
[05:18] <xeenan> is there a way to do that
[05:18] <nickrud> xeenan: what video card are you running?
[05:18] <ph0rensic> nickrud, he said he did it that way but the 3d test failed..? ATI...
[05:18] <xeenan> 9550
[05:18] <Jack_Sparrow> fglrx
[05:18] <triorieel> Jack_Sparrow: support for a dxr3 card
[05:18] <SuperLag> Draco: So... no missing functionality though?
[05:18] <benja22> Hi,  I'm not a ubuntu user but I need the command that lists services.   equivalent of  chkconfig --list.   thanks
[05:18] <ph0rensic> xeenan, any specific fail message?
[05:18] <Jack_Sparrow> triorieel, WHo makes them.. sorry, never heard of them
[05:19] <nickrud> Jack_Sparrow: ati 9550, fglrx is correct?
[05:19] <Jack_Sparrow> yes
[05:19] <SuperLag> Draco: did you get the camera to work, as well?
[05:19] <erawfish_> benja22:then ask your distro's channel
[05:19] <xeenan> ya let me run the test again really quick
[05:19] <nickrud> Jack_Sparrow: heh. I'm not keeping up with scroll well
[05:19] <erawfish_> Jack_Sparrow: sigmatel IIRC
[05:19] <benja22> erawfish_:   I need the ubuntu command to list services.
[05:19] <triorieel> Jack_Sparrow: creative (you may have heard of them as hollywood cards).  a lot of media players support outputting through them (ie xine)
[05:19] <erawfish_> benja22: ls /etc/init.d/
[05:19] <xeenan> Your graphics card does not appear to be setup correctly.
[05:19] <xeenan> Please check the documentation for your Linux distribution
[05:19] <xeenan> and your graphics card drivers to ensure proper installation.
[05:20] <benja22> erawfish_:   great.  Thank you.
[05:20] <nickrud> xeenan: where did you see that?
[05:20] <erawfish_> xeenan: pastebin your Xorg.0.log
[05:20] <Jack_Sparrow> triorieel, you will need to sudo apt-get install build-essential
[05:21] <triorieel> Jack_Sparrow: already done :)
[05:21] <Jack_Sparrow> k
[05:21] <nickrud> triorieel: and you'll want   linux-headers-$(uname -r)   on that apt-get line, you don't need the whole source
[05:21] <xeenan> I play the eve-online game and it comes with a hardware tester and the 3d acceleration test failed aand thats the mesage
[05:21] <Jack_Sparrow> xeenan, Is this in linux or under wine
[05:21] <xeenan> the driver is from the restricted drivers
[05:21] <triorieel> nickrud: the source line given to me earlier is already done
[05:21] <erawfish_> Jack_Sparrow: it'S wine
[05:21] <nickrud> xeenan: are you running compiz?
[05:22] <xeenan> linux ver. of the game
[05:22] <erawfish_> xeenan: isn't that simply a wine built binary?
[05:22] <xeenan> a game that finally has a linux download ver.
[05:22] <owieng> 11
[05:23] <nickrud> xeenan: if you're using compiz, you won't be able to run gl games successfully
[05:23] <xeenan> how do i know if im running that
[05:23] <Jack_Sparrow> nickrud, I am thinking of writing a bash script that will read current compiz state and flip it on and off for those people..
[05:23] <nickrud> xeenan: if you don't know, you're almost certainly not :)     ps -A | grep compiz   in a terminal
[05:24] <nickrud> Jack_Sparrow: heh. I wouldn't run an bash script from an unknown source
[05:25] <simplyubuntu> hey i was wondering how i could allow a desktop user to configure wireless interfaces in ubuntu... can anyone help?
[05:25] <nickrud> Jack_Sparrow: you were supposed to laugh
[05:25] <Lowkey_> Can anybody possibly help me with laptop wireless?
[05:25] <Jack_Sparrow> arrrgh
[05:25] <xeenan> well i guess i dont have that cause it says command not found
[05:25] <nickrud> xeenan: make sure you have the spaces correct
[05:25] <Jack_Sparrow> nickrud, try fglrxinfo
[05:25] <triorieel> nickrud: I'm having problems with make menuconfig in the /usr/src/.... directory
[05:25] <xeenan> i copied and pasted
[05:26] <xeenan> lol
[05:26] <nickrud> xeenan: ps -A  lists all the processes running on your system. It is on every linux machine in the world
[05:26] <Cyclonut> simplyubuntu: try nm-applet?
[05:26] <Cyclonut> I think the package is called NetworkManager
[05:26] <Cyclonut> it should come by default though
[05:26] <nickrud> triorieel: install libqt3-mt  , and run make xconfig
[05:27] <triorieel> nickrud: libqt3-mt is already the newest version.
[05:27] <xeenan> ok worked that time i dont have the program
[05:28] <xeenan> do i need that
[05:28] <GiddyKong> can anyone can anyone suggest a good dock? ^^
[05:28] <nickrud> xeenan: ok, so far so good.  Next ,  run fglrxinfo in the terminal. Does it say it's using mesa drivers?
[05:28] <ph0rensic> GiddyKong, AWN
[05:28] <triorieel> nickrud: * Unable to find the QT3 installation. Please make sure that..........
[05:28] <GiddyKong> thanks ^^
[05:28] <nickrud> triorieel: I may have the wrong lib, that error tells you what to install
[05:28] <simplyubuntu> yeah cyclonut.... i think i its the default applet thingy... however, whenever i try to reset the interface, for example, it asks me for an admin password
[05:28] <Jack_Sparrow> nickrud, apt-get install xserver-xgl        then        sudo depmod -a
[05:29] <nickrud> Jack_Sparrow: don't want compiz, want to run gl game
[05:29] <Cyclonut> simplyubuntu: ah, I dont think you'll get around that... or if you do, I'd like to know how because there are somethings I could use that for
[05:29] <xeenan> xeenan@xeenan-desktop:~$ fglrxinfo

[05:29] <icesword> ok
[05:29] <icesword> i am back
[05:29] <Jack_Sparrow> nickrud, not going for compiz.. just setting up the drivers
[05:29] <nickrud> xeenan: you have the proper driver installed and running correctly. So, it's something in your invocation of eve.
[05:29] <xeenan> hmm
[05:29] <ph0rensic> xeenan, in the future you should use a pastebin to paste multiple lines
[05:30] <ph0rensic> !pastebin | xeenan
[05:30] <ubotu> xeenan: pastebin is a service to post multiple-lined texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the channel topic)
[05:30] <nickrud> ph0rensic: I let floodbot be the arbiter of that these days. The uber-ops set that :)
[05:30] <xeenan> ok sry
[05:31] <ph0rensic> nickrud, hehe ;-)
[05:31] <Jack_Sparrow> Floodbots are way faster than we are
[05:31] <triorieel> nickrud: will the kernel have the settings used  by my kernel already set?
[05:31] <xeenan> that program you were asking me about do i need that to run pc games
[05:31] <Lowkey_> Can anybody help me...?
[05:31] <nickrud> xeenan: no, you need to not have it running.
[05:31] <xeenan> ok
[05:31] <Lowkey_> Can anyone help me?
[05:32] <Jack_Sparrow> Lowkey_, Not unless you ask your question
[05:32] <icesword> Lowkey_,
[05:32] <nickrud> xeenan: I checked for that first, since it messes with the output of fglrxinfo .
[05:32] <Lowkey_> I asked a few times
[05:32] <Lowkey_> I need help with installing wireless
[05:32] <ph0rensic> Jack_Sparrow, How many lines before the floodbot kicks in?
[05:32] <Lowkey_> On an HP laptop
[05:32] <xinbao> which command can hide the gvim toolbar in .vimrc,thx
[05:32] <mbrandt> Lowkey_ which HP Laptop?
[05:33] <nickrud> xinbao: try asking in #vim , I bet they know it by heart ;)
[05:33] <icesword> nickrud, sudo apt-get install sysv-rc-conf doesn't work for me,whatever the repo i use
[05:33] <Jack_Sparrow> Lowkey_, Sorry, had to scroll way back.   what wireless card is it... lspci if you dont know
[05:33] <Lowkey_> Its broadcom thats all I know
[05:33] <Lowkey_> Thanks in advance
[05:33] <Lowkey_> :D
[05:33] <xinbao> hi how to hide the gvim toolbar?
[05:33] <nickrud> icesword: sysv-rc-conf is in universe
[05:33] <ere4si> icesword, it is just   sysv-rc
[05:33] <icesword> nickrud, ok
[05:34] <Jack_Sparrow> Lowkey_, bcm43xx or bcm943xx  big difference
[05:34] <icesword> ere4si, :)
[05:34] <nickrud> xinbao:  type   /j #vim  , ask in there.  In component main, is required. Version 2.86.ds1-14.1ubuntu31 (gutsy), package size 55 kB, installed size 272 kB
[05:35] <Lowkey_> PCIxx21 ?

[05:36] <Lowkey_> okay :)
[05:37] <ere4si> icesword, sysv-rc comes with ubuntu - to make changes you need  sysv-rc-conf
[05:38] <SJrX> I'm trying to enable my wireless card but for some reason the signal strength of all access points is 0
[05:38] <ere4si> icesword, do you have all the repositories enabled?
[05:38] <icesword> ere4si, you mean sudo apt-get install sysv-rc-conf,that didn't get a package
[05:38] <icesword> ere4si, all,?how?
[05:38] <SJrX> WHen I do an iwlist eth2 scan it shows AP
[05:38] <SJrX> but it never associates with any.
[05:38] <SJrX> I also have another wireless card installed
[05:38] <Lowkey_> Thank you jack!
[05:38] <SJrX> but it doesn't seem to be detected
[05:38] <ere4si> icesword, open synaptic package manager
[05:39] <Jack_Sparrow> Lowkey_, np, we are here to help where we can
[05:39] <icesword> ere4si, k
[05:39] <malocite> hey all - quickie question.  Is it possible to have a terminal window always look unique to others that open?  Like I usually always have one open thats connected to anotehr machine, I just want to be able to tell them apart quickly
[05:39] <Pepetide1> Hi.... I cannot access my integrated webcam because my user does not have permission to access /dev/video0 and even if I change those permissions when I reboot they revert back... how can I change this?
[05:39] <ere4si> icesword, then click settings in the top menu
[05:40] <icesword> ere4si, yeah,
[05:40] <ere4si> icesword, then select repositories and select all except source
[05:40] <Tu13es> ples
[05:40] <mage_> malocite: most terminal emulators let you specify either a profile or a background color as arguments
[05:40] <icesword> ere4si, ok,select all except source
[05:41] <ere4si> icesword, select close then click the reload button
[05:41] <icesword> ere4si, k
[05:42] <ere4si> nickrud, thanx for the correction - just in time..
[05:42] <Rael> my sound has suddenly stopped working. I'm running ubuntu. I checked the speakers and the volume is turned up. I tried restarting but that did not fix it either.I go some kind of knotify popup talking about aRts and a crash
[05:43] <ere4si> icesword, then you can click the search button and type sysv-rc-conf or use apt-get in the terminal
[05:44] <triorieel> nickrud: I don't have to fully compile the kernel, I only need to get to the make dep part to do the otehr thing I need to.  since I am having issues with doing make with ubuntu kernel, would it be ok if I just used a kernel from mykernel.org?
[05:44] <Rael> my sound has suddenly stopped working. I'm running ubuntu. I checked the speakers and the volume is turned up. I tried restarting but that did not fix it either.I go some kind of knotify popup talking about aRts and a crash
[05:44] <nickrud> triorieel: not sure, I'm not that up on kernel stuff anymore (was only partially up when I was up at all)
[05:46] <malocite> how do I see which harddrives are which /dev items?
[05:47] <emma> Rael - did you go to your volume control and making sure it's on alsa?
[05:47] <LukeL> hi everyone, when I go to install ubuntu I get a "no common cd-rom drive was detected" message. I'm using a Pioneer DVR-111DBK, anyone have some insight?
[05:47] <googling> malocite, fdisk -l
[05:48] <malocite> googling: hmm, that didn't seem to do anything :)
[05:49] <googling> malocite, sudo fdisk -l
[05:49] <malocite> googling:
[05:49] <malocite> googling:  that did it :
[05:49] <malocite> :)
[05:50] <ere4si> Rael, see if this helps - http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-51786.html
[05:51] <Rael> its on alsa. I looked in there and I noticed that the sound device had been switched from my soundblaster card to the onboard sound card. I switched it back but still no sound
[05:51] <emma> are the speakers plugged in?
[05:51] <malocite> googling: I have just re-installed ubuntu on a smaller drive - now I want to mount the OLD drive's HOME folder to be the home folder on this drive, can I tell it to mount /dev/sda1/home/whatever ??
[05:52] <Rael> yep
[05:52] <Timi> Help. I tried changing the resolution settings on my laptop, when I relogged, the entire screen messed up.
[05:52] <Rael> I'm running gnome btw
[05:53] <Timi> Anyone?
[05:53] <googling> malocite, there's a couple of ways to do this ... you can't mount a sub-directory directly ... you have to start with just mounting /dev/sda1 ...
[05:54] <cyber_> alguien habla español aqui?
[05:54] <Jack_Sparrow> Rael, try disabling the onboard sound card.. running both can be a hassle
[05:54] <Jack_Sparrow> !es
[05:54] <ubotu> Si busca ayuda en español por favor entre en los canales #ubuntu-es o #kubuntu-es, allí obtendrá más ayuda.
[05:54] <Rael> how can I do that
[05:54] <googling> malocite, you could mount it to /mnt/sda1 (create the directory /mnt/sda1 first) and create a symlink from /mnt/sda1 to /home ...
[05:55] <Jack_Sparrow> !who
[05:55] <ubotu> As you can see, this is a large channel. If you're speaking to someone in particular, please put their nickname in what you say (use !tab), or else messages get lost and it becomes confusing :)
[05:56] <ec158148> can somebody suggest an app that can produce a pretty comprehensive list of available podcasts?  like itunes store?
[05:56] <Timi> !tab
[05:56] <ubotu> You can use <tab> for autocompletion of nicknames in IRC, as well as for completion of filenames and programs on the command line.
[05:56] <googling> malocite, instead of the symlink you could use the mount rebind option, but I have to refresh my memory on how to use it
[05:56] <malocite> googling: so in fstab insert (sda1 is the drive I am trying to mount) /dev/sda1      /mnt/sda1    ext3 nodev,nosuid 0 2
[05:57] <malocite> then do a link from /mnt/sda1 to the /home folder?
[05:58] <googling> malocite, yes
[05:58] <kosh-> hi! when i put my sata drives to sleep using hdparm -y they start spinning again after 5 minutes. i have unmounted the partitions and don't really know what causes this behaviour (i am not accessing the drives) can someone help?
[05:58] <malocite> googling: Hey, I'm starting to get good at this :)
[05:59] <varsendaggr> hey
[06:00] <Jack_Sparrow> kosh-, could it be trackerd ?
[06:00] <malocite> googling: I just re-installed ubuntu because it had been getting so slow I could barely use it... if I install all of the updates would you expect that to happen again?
[06:01] <GiddyKong> :D i broke a pakage how do i remove it?
[06:01] <googling> malocite, you may prefer: mount --bind /mnt/sda1 /home - instead of the symlink - then it looks like a real top-level directory
[06:01] <kosh-> Jack_Sparrow: no, it is not running
[06:01] <GiddyKong> so i can retry
[06:01] <GiddyKong> ><
[06:01] <LukeL> hi everyone, when I go to install ubuntu I get a "no common cd-rom drive was detected" message. I'm using a Pioneer DVR-111DBK, anyone have some insight?
[06:01] <Jack_Sparrow> kosh-, just a thought.
[06:01] <ph0rensic> GiddyKong, sudo apt-get remove <package name>
[06:01] <ere4si> GiddyKong, sudo apt-get remove "package"
[06:01] <GiddyKong> thank you guys again ><
[06:02] <ph0rensic> ere4si, hehenice
[06:02] <googling> malocite, that's a "feature" I'd more attribute to windows over time rather than Linux - did you use "top" to see what might have been consuming CPU?
[06:02] <kosh-> Jack_Sparrow: thx anyway :)
[06:02] <ere4si> Phoenigore, jinx
[06:02] <Timi> From the console, how do I edit the resolution settings?
[06:02] <ere4si> oops
[06:02] <oxeimon> so, I have an external hard drive, but when I plug it in, I can't see it. I can't even see the entry in /media/
[06:02] <googling> malocite, how much memory and swap space do you have?
[06:03] <malocite> googling: Yeah, nothing really was, sometimes firefox would go upwards of 50%.... but it was just slow, I was surprised.  I called my internet support, (yes they know linux there) and the guy said he had the same problem on his Feisty & gutsy boxes over time,
[06:03] <malocite> googling: I have a gig of memory
[06:03] <Jack_Sparrow> Timi, sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[06:03] <malocite> googling: I don't know how much swap space
[06:03] <Starnestommy> the linux version of firefox has memory leaks
[06:03] <googling> malocite, cat /proc/swaps
[06:03] <Jack_Sparrow> nickrud, Goodnight buddy..  need to get more rest...
[06:03] <dbmoodb> question lexmark 1170 - says udev means it works out of the box ?
[06:04] <dbmoodb> or not so?
[06:04] <malocite> on this new install it says 875500 for space... is that 875 megs for the swap?
[06:04] <dbmoodb> also with a sis 9XX can you get 3d working - not sure there is large website anyone done it ?
[06:04] <oxeimon> so, I have an external hard drive, but when I plug it in, I can't see it. I can't even see the entry in /media/, can someone plz help me
[06:04] <e-rod> leave #ubuntu
[06:04] <googling> malocite: yep, should be around twice your swap space - that's generally the recommendation
[06:05] <googling> malocite: sorry, meant twice your RAM size
[06:05] <malocite> thats what installed by default :)
[06:05] <malocite> so I should have like 2000000 for swap then
[06:05] <googling> malocite: yes, strange it chose that number, but then I always do manual partitioning
[06:06] <malocite> its only a 20 gig drive that the install is on, maybe thats why
[06:06] <Mega_byte> hi, I have the /bin/sh: can't access tty; job control turned off problem in Ubuntu 7.04, I read what was said in forums, but it didn't help, anyone knows how to track exactly the origin of the problem in this case?
[06:06] <googling> malocite: could have something to do with it, not sure though
[06:06] <ere4si> http://www.brisbanetimes.com.au/news/queensland/southeast-qld-prepares-for-wet-weekend/2008/02/29/1204226935743.html - I'm off to use the hose if I can find it...
[06:06] <malocite> googling: its only a 20 gig drive the install is on, maybe thats why, annyway... I'm gonna reboot and see if my drive mounts on boot :)
[06:06] <malocite> googling: or is there a way to test fstab without rebooting
[06:07] <googling> malocite: you should be able to just do umount /dev/sda1 and then mount /dev/sda1 to see if your fstab is working
[06:07] <googling> malocite: are you going to stick with the symlink or change to use the --bind option?
[06:08] <malocite> googling: But that just tells me if I can mount, it doesn't tell me if I made the fstab entry right doesn't it?
[06:08] <Captain_Obliviou> man this is tough...ok, this is my last resort.
[06:08] <malocite> googling: I don't know anything about --bind, only worked with symlinks before
[06:08] <googling> malocite: that's only entering part of the information - it needs to go to fstab to get the rest of the information
[06:08] <Captain_Obliviou> i am stuck at 576x384 at 30hz rez
[06:09] <Captain_Obliviou> i just installed ubuntu on a PS3
[06:09] <Timi> How do I get back to graphic mode?
[06:09] <Captain_Obliviou> i know the screen can handle 800x600 at 60hz
[06:10] <Captain_Obliviou> how do i force it to work?
[06:10] <Starnestommy> Timi, Ctrl+Alt+F7?
[06:10] <malocite> googling: ahh... you are right (clearly you have done this before :) )
[06:12] <Mega_byte> "/bin/sh: can't access tty; job control turned off" problem in Ubuntu 7.04, I read what was said in forums, but it didn't help, anyone knows how to track exactly the origin of the problem in this case?
[06:13] <oxeimon> so, I have an external hard drive, but when I plug it in, I can't see it. I can't even see the entry in /media/, can someone plz help?
[06:13] <Timi> Omg
[06:13] <malocite> once a symlink is there, its there right, like when I reboot, it will still be there the same way it was before?
[06:13] <Timi> it's working, thanks so much
[06:13] <malocite> googling: once a symlink is there, its there right, like when I reboot, it will still be there the same way it was before?
[06:14] <googling> malocite: yes it will stay, personally I'd switch to the --bind approach, but it's fine to stay with what you are comfortable doing
[06:14] <malocite> googling: Actually, I think I should.... I seem to be having problems with it as a symlink
[06:15] <googling> malocite: what you may find when moving around the /home directories is that it will sometimes show up as /mnt/sda1/home and not /home
[06:15] <Timi> Thanks jack-Sparrow
[06:15] <malocite> I think that is happening, whem i try to open the home dir in gnome nothing comes up, so I suspect thats happening
[06:15] <googling> malocite: so just rm the symlink and then do mount --bind /mnt/sda1 /home
[06:16] <malocite> googling: Will I have to do that on every boot?
[06:16] <Captain_Obliviou> anyone have any thoughts on my resolution issue?
[06:16] <googling> malocite: you can also put that in /etc/fstab, but it needs to be after the /dev/sda1 mount
[06:18] <kruqnut> hi, i need to setup a network connection for file transferring with a windows computer, i need to backup some files before reformatting the drive in this computer, i am trying to do this from the live cd as i can't install an OS on this computer atm
[06:18] <kruqnut> how would i go about doing this?
[06:18] <malocite> googling: What would that line look like in fstab?
[06:18] <googling> malocite: I just tried and the fstab line should look like this: /mnt/sda1 /home none bind 0 0
[06:19] <googling> kruqnut: you're back - I tried something while you were away ...
[06:19] <kruqnut> oh hey :P
[06:19] <kruqnut> i tried to install a different version of windows and got the same blue screen, so i definately need to reformat the disk
[06:19] <googling> kruqnut: I brought up a live-cd and ran into the same hostname error - it went away when I added an entry for the windows machine to /etc/hosts
[06:20] <kruqnut> how do i do that?
[06:20] <Mega_byte> "/bin/sh: can't access tty; job control turned off" problem in Ubuntu 7.04, I read what was said in forums, but it didn't help, anyone knows how to track exactly the origin of the problem in this case?
[06:21] <googling> kruqnut: sudo vi /etc/hosts - add "<ip-address> <hostname>"
[06:21] <malocite> googling: well, that seems to work, but stuff is running wierd now :)  Firefox doesn't want to start, and neither does evolution,
[06:21] <kruqnut> what would the ip address be of two computers directly connected to eachother?
[06:22] <malocite> googling: and when I click on HOME FOLDER nothing comes up
[06:22] <googling> malocite: I would try rebooting so that the home directory is mounted early
[06:22] <kruqnut> i guess i could unplug the internet wire and run it thru the router and then use the <IP_ADDRESS> etc ips, but is there a way to do it with a direct connection?
[06:22] <malocite> googling: good idea., I'll reboot and be right back :)
[06:23] <jamesrdorn> Got a quick question. What's a 'really' good IRC client for ubuntu?
[06:23] <googling> kruqnut: hmm ... I thought you probably set them manually
[06:23] <Captain_Obliviou> xirc
[06:23] <kruqnut> no i haven't never done that before
[06:23] <Azodon> gnome-xchat
[06:23] <jamesrdorn> I have always used in the past, and still do use w/ Wine... mIRC
[06:23] <kruqnut> i could do the router, then the router would assign local ip addresses
[06:23] <Starnestommy> jamesrdorn, xchat, xchat-gnome, konversation, kvirc, or mirc
[06:23] <Captain_Obliviou> i meant xchat x
[06:23] <Azodon> or xchat
[06:24] <kruqnut> so it'd be like: sudo vi /etc/hosts - add "<IP_ADDRESS> BOXMAN"
[06:24] <jamesrdorn> mIRC is $20, and is a great client. Runs w/ wine nicely
[06:24] <jamesrdorn> think it's worth the money for deveopment?
[06:24] <kruqnut> you can use pidgin
[06:24] <Mega_byte> try it all and choose what fits you best, there is not thing such as "the best", just what suits your needs
[06:24] <kruqnut> it comes with ubuntu
[06:24] <jamesrdorn> krept: I use pidigin for everything else
[06:24] <kruqnut> and it also does all your IM programs
[06:24] <googling> kruqnut: yes, for a direct connection you will need to set static IP addresses on both systems - how many ports do you have on the router
[06:24] <Starnestommy> pidgin's irc support is highly incomplete
[06:25] <anditosan> when trying to run elisa I get this error *** stack smashing detected ***: python terminated
[06:25] <jamesrdorn> I just dont like how it handles irc
[06:25] <kruqnut> i have 4 ports on the router + it sends a wireless signal
[06:25] <Captain_Obliviou> i could never get irc to work right with pidgin
[06:25] <malocite> googling: Thou art wise in the ways of the linux, the reboot has been successful :)
[06:25] <kruqnut> i can just unplug the ethernet cable from the modem to router and use that to plug into the other computer
[06:25] <sladigar> irssi, free, best available
[06:25] <googling> malocite: excellent
[06:25] <jamesrdorn> Again, I am like 2 secs away from a $20 registration. I would like that donation to go to open source if there is a competing product
[06:26] <jamesrdorn> something that is 'very' useable
[06:26] <sladigar> IRSSI
[06:26] <malocite> googling: Thats awesome, now I can re-install my os when ever I want to without losing my home folder
[06:26] <Starnestommy> xchat\
[06:26] <kruqnut> then it should setup <IP_ADDRESS> and <IP_ADDRESS> as the local ip addresses
[06:26] <kruqnut> which are the ones i need right?
[06:26] <Gatton> xchat ftw
[06:26] <googling> kruqnut: you have the windows machine connected to the router - can you just connect the ubuntu machine to it too?
[06:26]  * jamesrdorn installs xchat
[06:26] <sladigar> jamesdorn irssi, it's text based, out of terminal, but you just can't beat it
[06:26] <kruqnut> well windows machine isn't connected to anything atm lol
[06:27] <kruqnut> i only have 2 cables
[06:27] <Starnestommy> I think there was a project to make a GUI for irssi
[06:27] <googling> kruqnut:
[06:27] <jamesrdorn> sladen, I used it a while ago
[06:27] <kruqnut> and one is connected to modem, and one to this computer
[06:27] <kruqnut> thats why when i go to try things, i have to disconnect
[06:27] <googling> kruqnut: what you suggested will work fine, two IPs from the same private subnet
[06:27] <sladigar> irssi had gui in windows, i think
[06:27] <kruqnut> ok
[06:27] <Gatton> bitchx if you just gotta chat in a term
[06:27] <Starnestommy> sladigar, it's just a cygwin cmd window
[06:27] <kruqnut> then after that i should be able to just do smbclient \\\\system\\share?
[06:28] <sladigar> in windows, starnestommy?
[06:28] <Starnestommy> sladigar, yes
[06:28] <sladigar> ahh
[06:28] <googling> kruqnut: private IP on each system, entry in /etc/hosts for the windows IP and name, then the smbclient command
[06:29] <kruqnut> ok
[06:29] <kruqnut> brb in a minute
[06:29] <googling> kruqnut: ok
[06:30] <_icesword_> googling, you know ubuntu has six console in default,how to change it to two,i mean,ctrl+alt+f1 get you a console,how to
[06:31] <_icesword_> ere4si, , you know ubuntu has six console in default,how to change it to two,i mean,ctrl+alt+f1 get you a console,how to
[06:31] <bruenig> _icesword_: does ubuntu use inittab?
[06:32] <googling> _icesword_: from memory just alt-f* will switch between console, as long as you don't have X running
[06:32] <Starnestommy> bruenig, there is no inittab
[06:32] <ere4si> icesctrl+alt+f2-f6 and alt+f7 to get back
[06:32] <_icesword_> bruenig, i am not sure,no /etc/inittab
[06:32] <ere4si> /etc/init.d
[06:32] <jamesrdorn> brb'
[06:32] <_icesword_> no,i want tune that "six" console to "two"
[06:32] <_icesword_> how
[06:33] <bruenig> Starnestommy: hmm
[06:33] <Starnestommy> I'm not sure if it can be done
[06:33] <bruenig> it can be done with distros that use inittab
[06:33] <Captain_Obliviou> recompile
[06:33] <_icesword_> in ubuntu,no such a file
[06:33] <ere4si> _icesword_, you only want to be able to access two - not 6 ?
[06:33] <_icesword_> yeah
[06:33] <_icesword_> that is it
[06:34] <Starnestommy> I might try to get 8 instead of 6, but I usually only use the first 4
[06:34] <ere4si> _icesword_, one min - that's tty 1-6 - have to check how again
[06:34] <googling> _icesword_: I think you have to rebuild the kernel
[06:35] <icesword> googling, what ?rebuild the kernel,ohh,i will pass
[06:35] <Starnestommy> there might be an init script somewhere...
[06:35] <jamesrdorn> now that I am using xchat, something is very strange
[06:35] <googling> icesword: why do you want to reduce it? just wondering
[06:36] <jamesrdorn> in the server setup there is a field for "channels to autojoin" but no matter the combo, it only opens the first one
[06:36] <icesword> googling, i think this will force system uses less resource
[06:36] <Starnestommy> seperate them with commas, i.e. #foo,#bar,#etc...
[06:36] <ere4si> icesword, the file /etc/event.d - you need to rename the files tty3-6 to tty3.bak, tty4.bak etc
[06:37] <jamesrdorn> Starnestommy, I did so, still no luck
[06:37] <Captain_Obliviou> i am stuck at 576x384 at 30hz rez
[06:37] <icesword> ere4si, only one step?
[06:37] <prince_jammys> is this that tty hack?
[06:37] <Captain_Obliviou> i know the screen can handle 800x600 at 60hz
[06:37] <ere4si> icesword, 4 files to rename
[06:37] <jamesrdorn> Starnestommy, however, I provided a space
[06:37] <icesword> ok
[06:37] <jamesrdorn> so mabe that's the issue?!?!?
[06:37] <Captain_Obliviou> anyone have any ideas?
[06:37] <cE_mAniEz> hy
[06:37] <Starnestommy> prince_jammys, a tty hack, but maybe not the one you're thinkning about
[06:38] <prince_jammys> Starnestommy: the "performance enhancing" hack?
[06:39] <wasabi_> how do i invoke run command from terminal?
[06:39] <jamesrdorn> Starnestommy, thanks, removing the space fixed it
[06:39] <wasabi_> instead of pressing alt-f2
[06:40] <IndyGunFreak> Captain_Obliviou: have you tried to reconfigure X?
[06:40] <wasabi_> anyone?
[06:40] <icesword> ere4si, it just simply doesn't allow me to rename

[06:47] <Lartza_> oh thanks!

[07:00] <obfusco> kittykitty: might be as a result of the settings on eth0?  try making everything static, if that doesn't cause too much trouble
[07:00] <Lowkey_> actually, I think I have 7.10
[07:00] <Lartza_> is webmin same than ispconfig?
[07:00] <jamesrdorn> System>Prefs>apearance
[07:00] <Lowkey_> Thanks :D
[07:00] <jamesrdorn> Visual Effects tab
[07:00] <Starnestommy> ispconfig?
[07:00] <jamesrdorn> it's not as configurable
[07:01] <kittykitty> if i just setup both networks, then bridge them using the brctl commands, it still breaks the networking
[07:01] <Lowkey_> oh :(
[07:01] <Lartza_> i mean i dont know anything about ispconfig, but have webmin installed
[07:01] <jamesrdorn> but it works as long as you have a supported card/driver
[07:01] <obfusco> kittykitty: why bridging?
[07:01] <Captain_Obliviou> jamesrdorn, it is, but you have to install another program...
[07:01] <jamesrdorn> try it out
[07:01] <Lowkey_> "None, Normal, Extra"
[07:01] <jamesrdorn> Cap_J_L_Picard, right
[07:01] <kittykitty> cause i have other computers that arn't wireless and i'm borrowing internet from down the street
[07:01] <Captain_Obliviou> let me find it
[07:01] <jamesrdorn> Lowkey_, search around for some compiz config apps that might help you out
[07:01] <kruqnut> when i did echo command it said bash: permission denied
[07:02] <Lowkey_> I'm on the Beryl website
[07:02] <jamesrdorn> Lowkey_, my experiance is the config apps can really screw things up
[07:02] <Lowkey_> :-S
[07:02] <Lowkey_> I see aquamarine
[07:02] <Lowkey_> beryl-core
[07:02] <Lowkey_> beryl-manager
[07:02] <Lowkey_> beryl-plugins
[07:02] <prince_jammys> Lowkey_: what version of ubuntu do you run?
[07:02] <prince_jammys> !enter
[07:02] <ubotu> Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation!
[07:02] <Lowkey_> I believe its 7.10
[07:02] <Lowkey_> I just installed it tonight
[07:02] <computerex> Hi guys. I have the compiz-fuzion-plugins-extra package installed. Compiz fusion wiki says that 3D windows is part of this package. How can I active it using CCSM?
[07:02] <Lowkey_> from the Ubuntu website
[07:02] <obfusco> kittykitty: i would say it would be easier to use ssh as a socks proxy by using the -D option
[07:02] <prince_jammys> Lowkey_: then you don't need beryl -- read the above link for compiz
[07:03] <Captain_Obliviou> Lowkey_, its called "CCSM"
[07:03] <Lowkey_> ok :D
[07:03] <Lowkey_> CCSM?
[07:03] <googling> kruqnut: yeah, sudo and >> don't play well together ...
[07:03] <Lowkey_> !compiz

[07:03] <jamesrdorn> goodnight

[07:03] <prince_jammys> Lowkey_: yes, ccsm is the compiz settings manager.  but you can access this from Preferences->Appearance
[07:03] <kruqnut> what if i went into fulltime admin control(forgot the command)
[07:03] <phix> hey, I just intalled Ubuntu 07.10 on my laptop (ASUS F3S).  I have updated packages but I am unable to get the sound (00:1b.0 Audio device: Intel Corporation 82801H (ICH8 Family) HD Audio Controller (rev 03)) or Ethernet NIC (02:00.0 Ethernet controller: Attansic Technology Corp.

[07:03] <Lowkey_> okay, when I go in there all I see is "None, Normal, Extra"
[07:04] <Captain_Obliviou> Advanced Desktop Effects Settings (ccsm)
[07:04] <booster__> hey guys...i need to know if there is a repository list for 7.10, im looking for the non free packages
[07:04] <jamiefox> i cant change to the second desktop anymore but the wobley windows still work,
[07:04] <phix> I have googled this but that didn't help :(
[07:04] <googling> kruqnut: instead: sudo bash, then: echo "<ip> <host>" >>, then: exit
[07:04] <Frogzoo> !easysource | booster__
[07:04] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about easysource - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[07:04] <googling> kruqnut: instead: sudo bash, then: echo "<ip> <host>" >>/etc/hosts, then: exit
[07:04] <phix> Any one installed Ubuntu on this laptop? or has any ideas?
[07:04] <Frogzoo> hmm..
[07:04] <Captain_Obliviou> jamiefox, Advanced Desktop Effects Settings (ccsm) can configure that
[07:04] <kittykitty> just setting up this box as a router from the wireless -> wired network, would be alot easier for the other people, so they don't have to do stupid "login" crap that they're to retarded to do anyways
[07:05] <ere4si> !repos | booster__
[07:05] <ubotu> booster__: The packages in Ubuntu are divided into several sections. More information at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Repositories and http://www.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/components - See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RecommendedSources for the recommended way to set up your repositories
[07:05] <omnistegan> Hey guys, I installed Wine but it didn't create a ~/.wine/ folder. When I try to run an application with wine, it tells me it fails to create it. The folder is chomodded 777, any suggestions? I've tried reinstalling wine to no avail
[07:05] <jamiefox> ok i can have a look, i could change the desktop yesterday but its stopped working now,
[07:05] <kruqnut> ok it's at the bottom of the file now
[07:05] <googling> kruqnut: another method is to use system->admin->network and add the host specification through the GUI
[07:06] <computerex> Can someone please point me to the right path? I have the compiz-fusion-plugins-extra package installed. I would like to activate the 3D windows plug-in, which is part of the package
[07:06] <nickrud> omnistegan: I think you need to run wineconfig or some such
[07:06] <kruqnut> now i shoudl try the "smbclient \\\\system\\share" command?
[07:06] <Captain_Obliviou> alright, time to try adding these settings again...
[07:06] <googling> kruqnut: you could first try: smbclient -L \\\\system - to check that you can see its shares
[07:06] <phix> kruqnut: ummm you can use / instead of \\, you do know that right?
[07:07] <omnistegan> nickrud: When I try to open the wine config it simply doesn't do anything, no error, when I tried it in a terminal it just brought me to the next line without doing anything
[07:07] <kruqnut> yea i know :P
[07:07] <Gatton> winecfg
[07:07] <kruqnut> brb
[07:07] <googling> kruqnut: yes, old habits die hard ;)
[07:07] <nickrud> omnistegan: I don't even have wine installed. I just remember , did you see Gatton above?
[07:08] <Ryuuzaki> nussa quanta gente
[07:08] <omnistegan> Gatton: same failure message as when I tried running an exe. fails to create the directory
[07:08] <jamiefox> i installed amsn and this irc thing this morning, i had wine installed with automatix
[07:08] <Gatton> omnistegan, you ran winecfg and it still didn't create the .wine folder?
[07:08] <obfusco> kittykitty: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=111972 looks like the sort of thing you want
[07:09] <oiboy> Need some help
[07:09] <omnistegan> Gatton: winecfg won't run, it says "creating config directory" and then "Segmentation fault"
[07:10] <Gatton> ouch. wonder if the wine installation is borked somehow
[07:10] <prince_jammys> omnistegan: did you install wine from apt?
[07:10] <ankitj> Hi all,Need some help
[07:10] <obfusco> !ask | oiboy
[07:10] <ubotu> oiboy: Please don't ask to ask a question, ask the question (all on ONE line, so others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely answer. :-)
[07:10] <omnistegan> prince_jammys: yes
[07:10] <prince_jammys> omnistegan: hmm that's disconcerting
[07:11] <phix> so any wy
[07:11] <phix> way
[07:11] <omnistegan> prince_jammys: I actually had a problem with another program creating a directory, I up having to create in manually for the program to work
[07:11] <Robbster> hi all. I'm running gutsy on a lenovo Z61m. The laptop have bluetooth, but the OS doesn't seem to detect it. Worked with Feisty. any ideas?
[07:12] <prince_jammys> omnistegan: did you change the permissions of your home dir perchance?
[07:12] <jamiefox> i still cant see how to get the second desktop working again,,
[07:12] <oiboy> I'm a total newbie to Linux and made the "jump" Trying to install a .run package says must be run as root
[07:12] <oiboy> ?
[07:12] <omnistegan> prince_jammys: only when I extended them when the problem started.
[07:12] <night_slither> hello all
[07:12] <Robbster> oiboy: run the command and sudo command.run it will prompt for password.
[07:12] <obfusco> !sudo | oiboy
[07:12] <ubotu> oiboy: sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for more information.
[07:13] <Robbster> be careful about what you run as root!
[07:13] <jamiefox> i can only see the three choices of desktop effects. and theres no other settings,
[07:13] <omnistegan> Hmm, it's created a .wine folder now, somehow.... but when I run winecfg is responds with "Segmentation fault" and fails
[07:14] <prince_jammys> omnistegan: gutsy, right?
[07:14] <Robbster> what kernel modules am I likely to need for bluetooth?
[07:14] <omnistegan> prince_jammys: yes
[07:14] <decay> i have bcm43xx installed, but when i run lsmod, i dont see it listed. is this a problem?
[07:14] <ankitj> Hi all.Need help.I have two ubuntu boxes ,both 7.10 , physically 15 mtrs apart,both connected to Net through adsl modem,and we have wifi enabled in my laptops.Now i want to share files amongst them through wireless.i am pretty naive on this.Help.
[07:14] <jamiefox> i have never got bluetooth to work on any linux distro.
[07:14] <levander> Can anyone tell me why I can mount a share from my Windows box to my Ubuntu box using smbfs but not cifs?
[07:15] <prince_jammys> omnistegan: 64 bit?
[07:15] <omnistegan> prince_jammys: yes, thats correct
[07:15] <phix> Hello
[07:15] <Robbster> levander: I dont' think that windows can make the share available in anything other tham smbfs
[07:15] <phix> Hello
[07:15] <prince_jammys> omnistegan: googling ... seems to be an issue there
[07:16] <phix> ankitj: I know how to do that
[07:16] <phix> Hello
[07:16] <phix> How about I keep on saying hello
[07:16] <luisgmarine> Hello is there an easy way to change the default ubuntu icon in the menu to something of my own liking, like the gnome foot for starters?
[07:16] <ankitj> phix: Thanks in Aadvance
[07:16] <prince_jammys> omnistegan: while you/we are figuring this out .. google "ubuntu gutsy wine create .wine segmentation fault"
[07:16] <Robbster> does anyone know what kernel modules need to be installed for bluetooth?
[07:16] <jamiefox> hi phix
[07:17] <phix> ankitj: does ubuntu pick your wireless cards up? can you see it in iwconfig or ifconfig?
[07:17] <levander> Robbster: Okay, I thought cifs was backwards compatible with smbfs?
[07:17] <omnistegan> prince_jammys: yup, I'm already on it
[07:17] <phix> jamiefox: yay!
[07:17] <phix> some one actually answered me!
[07:17] <ankitj> phix:yes
[07:17] <luisgmarine> prince_jammys: you've helped me before!  How do I change the default ubuntu icon in the menu bar to something else?
[07:17] <phix> now lets try this agai, but instead of saying hello, I will ask my question I asked 5 minutes ago
[07:17] <phix> and hopefully this time I get a response
[07:17] <kr0y> http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-220443.html can anybosy help me with this?
[07:17] <nickrud> !patience | phix
[07:17] <ubotu> phix: The people here are volunteers, your attitude should reflect that. Answers are not always available. See http://wiki.ubuntu.com/IrcGuidelines
[07:17] <ankitj> phix:in my office i connect to office wifi
[07:17] <jamiefox> phix i sometime find it easyier tp get answer on linix geeks group on my space than in these chats
[07:18] <phix> nickrud: I relise that, you could of at least acknowledged my question :) at least
[07:18] <Robbster> levander: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Server_Message_Block
[07:18] <nickrud> phix: this channel is busy enough without 40 people saying 'no freaking clue'
[07:18] <prince_jammys> luisgmarine: i don't know of an easy way -- the icon is called "start-here". it's either a png or svg file somewhere in your icon theme
[07:18] <phix> ankitj: OK GREAT
[07:18] <killown> does exaile has any lastfm plugin?
[07:18] <ankitj> phix:now..
[07:19] <decay> has anyone gotten their bcm43xx driver to work?
[07:19] <jamiefox> there is a ubuntu group on facebook,,join up
[07:19] <phix> ankitj: ifconfig
[07:19] <phix> ankitj: iwconfig
[07:19] <decay> or the bcm4311 to be more specific
[07:19] <phix> I hate face book
[07:19] <levander> Robbster: That page says that CIFS came into being when Microsoft changed the name from SMB and added features.
[07:19] <cafuego> decay: It's worked for years on my 4306es. I don't have a 4311
[07:19] <prince_jammys> luisgmarine: what icon theme do you use>
[07:19] <phix> ok so my LAN and Sound isn't working, scroll up for lspci outputs
[07:19] <decay> cafuego: =[
[07:20] <cafuego> decay: Do you have the firmware?
[07:20] <jamiefox> well phix it helps if you turn of all the dumb emails you get sent from there and you can chose to do that
[07:20] <nickrud> !bcm43xx |decay: I use the 4311 , took about 5 minutes with this page.
[07:20] <ubotu> decay: I use the 4311 , took about 5 minutes with this page.: Help with Broadcom bcm43xx can be found at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/WifiDocs/Driver/Broadcom43xx
[07:20] <phix> ankitj: ok so you want to share files between two Linux computers? or Windows boxes as well?
[07:20] <ankitj> phix:what to look into that
[07:20] <luisgmarine> prince_jammys: nuoveXT-1.6
[07:20] <ankitj> phix:right now btw ubuntu only..
[07:20] <Robbster> so I was wrong, but when you mount the share, you tell the client what File system to use. I don't think that CIFS is supported as a file system, although google will tell you for sure.
[07:20] <phix> ankitj: can you see your wireless card in there :)
[07:20] <decay> cafuego: yep
[07:21] <decay> nickrud: what do you get when you type lspci?
[07:21] <prince_jammys> luisgmarine: you know how to view hidden folders in your home dir?
[07:21] <ankitj> phix:no
[07:21] <phix> ankitj: ok well you can use SMB / CIFS, NFS, FTP, AFS, CODA, HTTP, etc. etc., what protocol would you like to use??
[07:21] <luisgmarine> prince_jammys: yes, going to do a search now for that start-here.*
[07:21] <ankitj> phix:what is easy :)
[07:21] <phix> ankitj: hmmm ok, that is a problem, what type of wireless card you ot?
[07:21] <phix> ot = got
[07:21] <decay> nickrud: says here i have BCM94311CG wkab
[07:21] <decay> wlan
[07:21] <nickrud> 05:00.0 Network controller: Broadcom Corporation BCM94311MCG wlan mini-PCI (rev 01) Decadent
[07:21] <decay> nickrud: same. but rev 02
[07:22] <luisgmarine> prince_jammys: nothing :\
[07:22] <phix> ankitj: personally I would use SMB / CIFS or NFS.  Use SMB / CIFS if you want Windows computers to access it too
[07:22] <nickrud> decay: but if you can keep cafuego interested, you got good help
[07:22] <decay> nickrud: ill follow the page. thanks (althogh i think i already may have)
[07:22] <decay> cafuego where have you been all my life
[07:22] <cafuego> decay: On airplanes
[07:22] <ankitj> phix:how do i find what card i use?
[07:22] <prince_jammys> luisgmarine: it's probably inheriting the default one from gnome. is there a dir .icons/nouvext or something?
[07:22] <phix> ankitj: sudo lspci
[07:22] <decay> cafuego: likewise. wink next time we cross paths
[07:22] <luisgmarine> prince_jammys: yes there is
[07:23]  * cafuego sinks back into his steaming kitchen
[07:23] <prince_jammys> luisgmarine: if you copy an icon into the places folder of that dir and name it start-here, it will probably work
[07:23] <decay> nickrud: i've tried this
[07:23] <phix> ankitj: If Ubuntu didnt pick it up you may need to use the Windows XP drivers with ndiswrapper
[07:23] <prince_jammys> luisgmarine: otherwise it uses the default
[07:23] <topster> i'm having a problem with KDE apps
[07:23] <decay> nickrud: the card's light on my laptop went from red to blue, but when i do iwconfig, the access point is 'invalid'
[07:23] <topster> it started after the last update to KDE libs i think
[07:23] <nickrud> decay: you might be one of those who need a later driver and kernel. A sec
[07:23] <luisgmarine> prince_jammys: what places folder?
[07:23] <ankitj> phix: Network controller: Intel Corporation PRO/Wireless 3945ABG Network Connection (rev 02)
[07:24] <prince_jammys> luisgmarine: inside .icons/nuovext
[07:24] <ankitj> phix:it works at office
[07:24] <prince_jammys> luisgmarine: is there a places directory somewhere?
[07:24] <topster> some of them, including amarok and konqueror, exit right when they start
[07:24]  * delcoyote mornin'
[07:24] <luisgmarine> prince_jammys: yes the one I made under .icons/nouvext/gnome/scalable/places
[07:24] <luisgmarine> but that one doesn't work
[07:24] <phix> ankitj: oh so it works at the Office in linux?
[07:25] <prince_jammys> luisgmarine: you made it?
[07:25] <ankitj> phix:yes
[07:25] <luisgmarine> prince_jammys: yes
[07:25] <phix> ankitj: you are at home now?
[07:25] <luisgmarine> prince_jammys: I ran into that idea when I was googling but that didn't help much
[07:25] <phix> ankitj: trying to connect it to another Ubuntu box?
[07:25] <nickrud> decay: are you sure about the chip info? I found only one russian page for what you gave me
[07:25]  * delcoyote buenos dias
[07:25] <ankitj> yes
[07:25] <ankitj> phix:yes
[07:25] <phix> ankitj: ok, you have an AP at home?
[07:25] <phix> ankitj: also, are both computers the same?
[07:26] <decay> nickrud: one second. it's restarting
[07:26] <ankitj> phix:no
[07:26] <phix> ankitj: do both computers have the same wireless card?
[07:26] <phix> ankitj: what is in the other one?
[07:26] <decay> btw: i have to boot with 'noapic'
[07:26] <phix> ankitj: can you see the wireless card using iwconfig?
[07:26] <ankitj> phix:one is compaq nc8430 another is dell
[07:26] <luisgmarine> luisgmarine: I don't see why the gnome developers don't make this much easier to fix, hopefully the guy developing Ubuntu Tweak will add this option to his todo list
[07:26] <prince_jammys> luisgmarine: that won't work unless the dir is mentioned in the file index.desktop or index.theme.   you know what, i don't even think it matters what dir you place the icon in -- just put it into one of the dirs that came with the icon set (filesystems, actions, apps ..) try one of those
[07:26] <nickrud> decay: one warning: I know very little about wireless, about all I've spend is that 5 minutes
[07:26] <phix> ankitj: ok, type in lspci on the other (the one you havnt used at the office)
[07:26] <phix> or have you tested both at the office?
[07:26]  * delcoyote morning all

[07:27] <decay> nickrud: and i've spent about 5 hours and were on the same boat
[07:27] <prince_jammys> luisgmarine: yes, creating icon sets is a pain. i've created one myself
[07:27] <zero88> Is there any kind of emulator or virtual machine that will run Mac os x on linux???
[07:27] <prince_jammys> luisgmarine: there's not enough documentation
[07:27] <Starnestommy> zero88: maybe pearpc
[07:27] <phix> zero88: VirtualBox
[07:28] <phix> zero88: Intel vers though
[07:28] <zero88> starnestommy ya im looking at that right now seems and little complicated
[07:28] <phix> not PPC
[07:28] <zero88> phix what do you mean intel version?
[07:28] <__mikem> Virtual machines are good, but nothing beats a real linux install
[07:28] <googling> kruqnut: I realise this is painful for you having to switch back and forth ...
[07:28] <phix> zero88: x86
[07:28] <zero88> phix under the guest os, i would pick OS/ right?
[07:28] <kruqnut> it's ok
[07:28] <zero88> phix oh version of virtualbox?
[07:28] <phix> zero88: ?
[07:28] <googling> kruqnut: did you substitute the windows system's name for "system"?
[07:28] <phix> zero88: yes
[07:29] <phix> zero88: plus the version of Mac OSX you want to install as the guest OS, it needs to be x86
[07:29] <prince_jammys> luisgmarine: once you've copied the icon, you have to restart the panel.  you can do this with alt F2 and "killall gnome-panel"
[07:29] <phix> not ppc
[07:29] <zero88> phix for type of OS i mean
[07:29] <zero88> phix oh
[07:29] <phix> zero88: yes
[07:29] <luisgmarine> prince_jammys: yeah I tried, with no avail
[07:29] <decay> nickrud: yes. BCM94311MCG wlan mini-PCI
[07:29] <flowOver> you can only run hackintosh vm's
[07:29] <phix> zero88: you know how to latest version of Mac OSX only works on an x86 archetecture?
[07:29] <zero88> phix well sence i dont have that, is there any other way you know of
[07:30] <kruqnut> no lol
[07:30] <phix> zero88: You have a PPC version?
[07:30] <kruqnut> i didn't know i was supposed to do that
[07:30] <kruqnut> im such a newb
[07:30] <zero88> phix i have the newest version of osx
[07:30] <ankitj> phix:what do i do now
[07:30] <prince_jammys> luisgmarine: is this the icon you're seeing:: /usr/share/icons/gnome/32x32/places/start-here.png
[07:30] <zero88> phix ya i just used apt-get to get it
[07:30] <kruqnut> windows system name is the same as the host name right?
[07:30] <phix> zero88: so it is x86 based then
[07:30] <phix> zero88: great
[07:30] <flowOver> since osx isn't a versatile os and is only designed for a small set of hardware, it sucks as a vm
[07:30] <phix> ankitj: hi
[07:30] <googling> kruqnut: yes
[07:30] <ankitj> phix:to make it appear in iwconfig
[07:30] <kruqnut> lol brb
[07:31] <phix> ankitj: ok so did both of your laptops work in the office?
[07:31] <phix> ankitj: or have you only tested one?
[07:31] <zero88> phix is this needed?  Please use a Darwin installation CD (instructions) for partitioning of the harddisk.
[07:31] <phix> zero88: yeah
[07:31] <phix> zero88: I dont know
[07:31] <ankitj> phix:the others is my friends,and it works for him also when we have a wifi connection
[07:31] <luisgmarine> hold on prince_jammys, I think I'm up to something
[07:31] <phix> zero88: I have never installed Mac OSX
[07:31] <nickrud> decay: then you have the exact chip I have
[07:31] <zero88> phix oh
[07:31] <hellmoj> hi
[07:31] <thinman1189> I'm trying to install TrueCrypt on gutsy amd64. I downloaded the Ubuntu .deb from their site and when I clicked to install it said wrong architecture. Anyone know how to get it working on 64bit?
[07:31] <ankitj> phix:what we dont know is how to connect to each other..
[07:31] <phix> ankitj: ok so you have an AP?
[07:32] <hellmoj> hey ppl
[07:32] <decay> nickrud: but it's rev 02
[07:32] <prince_jammys> luisgmarine: try also copying it as " distributor-logo"
[07:32] <flowOver> zero88: you'd need to setup partitions on a virtual disk first, and then install osx
[07:32] <hellmoj> I'm new to this
[07:32] <ankitj> phix:what is an AP?
[07:32] <phix> ankitj: Access point
[07:32] <decay> nickrud: also when i do pccardctl ident, the physical ID for it says 0
[07:32] <zero88> flowOver, oh, thats what that means. ok thanks
[07:32] <flowOver> you also need a hacked install disc, not a real one.  since a vm isn't official apple hardware
[07:32] <nickrud> decay: I got the dell driver off their site, and used bcm43xx-fwcutter on that.
[07:32] <decay> every other hardware has a number, this for this it says -0
[07:32] <phix> ankitj: you could setup ad-hoc mode (computer to computer) but using an AP is better :)
[07:32] <decay> 0
[07:32] <flowOver> that's not so much illegal as it's against the user agreement
[07:32] <ankitj> phix:i have a adsl modem
[07:32] <dannyboy> how do i enable 3d desktop with beryl ?
[07:32] <decay> nickrud: you mean ndiswrapper
[07:32] <nickrud> decay: it's a pci card, not a pc card
[07:32] <decay> ?
[07:33] <zero88> flowOver, wht do you mean. now i have to tamper with my .iso?
[07:33] <phix> ankitj: does your ADSL modem have wireles on it too?
[07:33] <decay> ?uhm
[07:33] <flowOver> zero88:  if all you got is a real osx disc i wouldn't pursue it any further
[07:33] <ankitj> phix:nn,i have wireless in my laptop only..
[07:33] <decay> nickrud: how did you use dell's drivers with fwcutter?
[07:33] <nickrud> Decadent: no, fwcutter. It takes the firmware from the windows driver, and sticks into /lib/firmware so the bcm43xx driver can find it
[07:33] <Dr_willis> dannyboy,  wny not use compiz-fusion?
[07:33] <decay> did you mean ndiswrapper?
[07:33] <zero88> flowOver, well a burned iso
[07:33] <phix> ankitj: oh ok, so how are you going to connect to the other computer then if it doesn't have wireless?
[07:34] <flowOver> you need a developer's iso that's been hacked
[07:34] <zero88> flowOver, how do you know about this?
[07:34] <flowOver> the internets
[07:34] <decay> nickrud: i meant 'lchw'. when i run that, it says the physical ID is 0
[07:34] <dannyboy> Dr_willis: im using 7.04...plus i like beryl better for reason...
[07:34] <zero88> flowOver, wouldnt it tell me on the pearpc site though?
[07:34] <ankitj> phix:both have wireless in there laptops
[07:34] <Dr_willis> dannyboy,  berly is basicially dead.. good luck. I guess.. read its docs and see how to start it.
[07:35] <luisgmarine> prince_jammys: nope nothing
[07:35] <flowOver> zero88: that's olllld style apple osx
[07:35] <flowOver> it's a power arch emulator.. and sucks
[07:35] <kruqnu1> woohoo i've moved onto the next error
[07:35] <zero88> flowOver, oh... so theres nothing out there?
[07:35] <kruqnu1> ok so i did the smbclient -L ////BOXMAN
[07:36] <kruqnu1> that returned fine
[07:36] <phix> I cant get sound or LAN working on my laptop (ASUS F3S, 02:00.0 Ethernet controller: Attansic Technology Corp. L1 Gigabit Ethernet Adapter (rev b0), 00:1b.0 Audio device: Intel Corporation 82801H (ICH8 Family) HD Audio Controller (rev 03, Ubuntu 07.10, Kernel 2.6.22)
[07:36] <flowOver> leopard would run at a snails pace on a g5 and you want to run it on an emulator ;)
[07:36] <nickrud> decay: so does mine
[07:36] <phix> ankitj: ok, so set one as an AP
[07:36] <flowOver> zero88: ther's osx86 project
[07:36] <prince_jammys> luisgmarine: hmm "distributor-logo" and "start-here" should work. i've done it myself (with extension .png or .svg, whatever it is.  and the same size as your other icons)
[07:36] <decay> nickrud: thanks. that made me feel better
[07:36] <googling> kruqnu1: and display the share you are interested in?
[07:36] <ankitj> phix:how do i do that?
[07:36] <flowOver> but it's grey area with copyright issues
[07:36] <phix> ankitj: iwconfig $WLAN_NAME mode master
[07:36] <phix> ankitj: on one of them
[07:36] <phix> ankitj: replace $WLAN_NAME with the name of your wireless interface
[07:36] <ankitj> phix:ok
[07:36] <luisgmarine> prince_jammys: when I changed the start-here it automatically changed the others too
[07:37] <phix> ankitj: also you need to set a essid and a key
[07:37] <tyguaike> hello
[07:37] <phix> ankitj: that will give you basic WEP
[07:37] <kruqnu1> then i did smbclient -L ////BOXMAN//share
[07:37] <zero88> flowOver, cool thanks
[07:37] <thinman1189> what are all the .wav files in home directory for?
[07:37] <kruqnu1> and i got this error: http://pastebin.com/d1632baf3
[07:37] <phix> kruqnu1: use / instead if \\
[07:37] <kruqnu1> well thats the results
[07:37] <prince_jammys> luisgmarine: try logging back in
[07:37] <kruqnu1> i did
[07:37] <flowOver> and even if you get it running, osx is no good at running on any machine that it's not tuned for.  this include virtual machines
[07:37] <ankitj> phix:how do i find the name of my wireless interface?
[07:37] <phix> ankitj: iwconfig
[07:37] <dannyboy> Dr_willis: well theres video of beryl and a matrix theme running with beryl so i wanna know how to enable the 3d desktop
[07:37] <oxeimon> so, I have an external hard drive, but when I plug it in, I can't see it. I can't even see the entry in /media/
[07:38] <decay> nickrud: which version and bit of buntu are you running?
[07:38] <zwox> hi there
[07:38] <oxeimon> can someone plz help
[07:38] <phix> ankitj: it will tell you that one of the cards in your computer has wireless support
[07:38] <nickrud> decay: 7.10
[07:38] <zero88> flowOver, true i just want to get it up and running at least . i didnt want to get the iso for nuthin
[07:38] <nickrud> decay: 64bit also
[07:38] <ankitj> it doesnt says so
[07:38] <decay> which laptop?
[07:38] <ankitj> it says
[07:38] <ere4si> I checked in synaptic to see which version of gnome my ubuntu is using but gnome isn't installed - lots of gnome apps but not gnome?
[07:38] <flowOver> that iso probably won't help you
[07:38] <nickrud> decay: gateway 6541
[07:38] <ankitj> eth0      no wireless extensions.
[07:39] <flowOver> unless you've got a macbook or some official hardware, then you can install it natively
[07:39] <Dr_willis> dannyboy,  beryl became merged into compiz fusion, theres no need to  bother with beryl any more
[07:39] <nickrud> or 6451 , i can never keep the numbers straight
[07:39] <ankitj> phix:eth0      no wireless extensions.
[07:39] <zero88> flowOver, why wont it
[07:39] <Dr_willis> dannyboy,  install compiz fusion if you want the fancy 3d desktop
[07:39] <phix> ok so it isn't eth0 then
[07:39] <googling> kruqnu1: looks like you need to give it a valid username and password just to see what shares are available - what is the share name you are interested in?
[07:39] <zero88> flowOver, wats the purpose of emulators than
[07:39] <phix> ankitj: what other interfaces you got there?
[07:39] <decay> nickrud: you think if i tried the dell drivers, it would work? (since its the same wireless card)
[07:39] <zwox> I upgrade for hardy and so I get a wlan0_rename instead of the good interface name
[07:39] <dannyboy> Dr_willis how do i install it?
[07:39] <ankitj> phix:i think it is eth1 then..
[07:39] <flowOver> a virtual machine isn't an emulator, and a ppc emulator isn't exactly a good solution
[07:39] <prince_jammys> ere4si: the package ubuntu-desktop is gnome
[07:39] <zwox> and so i' ve change the udev rules and the modules loaded
[07:39] <kruqnu1> theres one just named C
[07:39] <Dr_willis> !compiz | dannyboy
[07:39] <ubotu> dannyboy: Compiz (compositing window manager) and XGL (X server architecture layered on top of OpenGL) - Howto at http://help.ubuntu.com/community/CompositeManager - help in #compiz-fusion
[07:39] <kruqnu1> it accepted my anonymous login tho
[07:40] <ere4si> prince_jammys, thnx
[07:40] <zero88> flowOver, true
[07:40] <ankitj> phix:it says eth1    Mode:Managed  Frequency=nan kHz  Access Point: Not-Associated
[07:40] <nickrud> decay: most likely. I'd suggest going to your manufacturer's site, and getting the wireless driver there
[07:40] <zwox> and i get back the good name, but ii have also the master device listed by both iwconfgig and ifconfig
[07:40] <phix> ankitj: yep, it is eth1
[07:40] <phix> ankitj: ok type the command in I told you before
[07:40] <ankitj> phix :coolness
[07:40] <flowOver> apple also locks out installs on anything other than officially identified hardware
[07:40] <ankitj> phix:so both have the it as eth1
[07:40] <prince_jammys> ere4si: also "about gnome" in your menu should say the version
[07:40] <ankitj> phix:ok
[07:41] <ste-foy> Can we talking aboth ubuntu ?
[07:41] <googling> kruqnu1: accepted, but didn't display anything, the command needs to be: smbclient //boxman/c - but you will need to add a username option too
[07:41] <zwox> so that is not the main problem but, i get in trouble trying to use aircrack
[07:41] <ere4si> prince_jammys, excellent :)
[07:41] <phix> ankitj: then type in iwconfig eth1 essid YourWirelessName and then iwconfig eth1 key s:ThisIsAGayKey or something with 13 ASCII characters :)
[07:41] <kruqnu1> well i need to access the D drive actually, its shared as (D) Data(at least as i can see from windows)
[07:41] <decay> nickrud:  i still don't understand why you needed dell's driver though. I'm reading the link you sent me, doesnt mention anything
[07:41] <kruqnu1> but windows doesn't have any usernames or passwords setup currently
[07:41] <phix> ankitj: only one of your laptops is set the mode master, the other one you leave it on the default mode (which is managed)
[07:41] <hellmoj> hey ppl
[07:41] <kruqnu1> u think i need to set some up?
[07:41] <nickrud> decay: I knew it was a dell card I had in this machine
[07:42] <ankitj> phix:it says   Error for wireless request "Set Mode" (8B06) :
[07:42] <ankitj>     SET failed on device eth1 ; Invalid argument.
[07:42] <zwox> so is there a way to get the wirelesse device correctly linked or not yet ?
[07:42] <Hoarde> what's a good desktop manager other than the one that comes with ubuntu ?
[07:42] <flowOver> nickrud: it may be a dell card but the chipset is made by someone else.  look for the model of chipset it uses
[07:42] <decay> nickrud: but i mean, it's not needed. we need the fwcutter. if we were using ndiswrapper, then yes, wed need the manufacturer's driver. or maybe im just too lost
[07:42] <googling> kruqnu1: did you create the share as read/write?
[07:43] <kruqnu1> yes
[07:43] <kruqnu1> it has full permissions
[07:43] <prince_jammys> Hoarde: KDE and gnome are the most popular, but there's others. to install kde, do sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop
[07:43] <nickrud> flowOver: I'm talking about something that worked here. I knew the chipset and the manufacturer, so I got that manufacturer's driver. I'm suggesting that decay get the driver from the manufacturer of his laptop
[07:43] <googling> kruqnu1: was there an option for anyone to access it (don't have a windows machine handy right now)?
[07:43] <prince_jammys> !desktop | Hoarde
[07:43] <ubotu> Hoarde: A desktop environment is what "puts the pieces of a !GUI together". The available desktop environments in Ubuntu are !GNOME (ubuntu-desktop), !KDE (kubuntu-desktop), !Xfce (xubuntu-desktop), IceWM, !Fluxbox, WindowMaker (wmaker), FVWM and others - See also !Flavors
[07:44] <decay> nickrud: once you downloaded the driver, how did you use it on linux?
[07:44] <googling> kruqnu1: then try: smbclient //boxman/d
[07:44] <iceswor1> !hi
[07:44] <ubotu> Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu!
[07:44] <ankitj> phix:it says Error for wireless request "Set Mode" (8B06) : SET failed on device eth1 ; Invalid argument.
[07:45] <nickrud> decay:   sudo bcm43xx-fwcutter -l , made sure the driver version was supported. Then bcm43xx-fwcutter <somefile>.inf iirc
[07:45] <Hoarde> prince_jammys: Yeah... I had issues with turning eye candy on where I would lose my top menu bar things... This isnt a strong machine (1800XP+ with GF440MX) but I'd like to have *some* eye candy.
[07:45] <thinman1189> !ubotu will you marry me?
[07:46] <kies> e17! :D
[07:46] <prince_jammys> Hoarde: if you want to keep it very light, there's xfce (xubuntu-desktop).  to keep it ultra-light, there's fluxbox (which is pretty cool looking, but not that easy to configure)
[07:46] <decay> nickrud:  <somefile>.inf being dell's window's inf file, right?
[07:46] <reppel> Hi, ho do i upgrade to Hardy?
[07:46] <icesword> ok
[07:47] <frold> reppel: from?
[07:47] <Starnestommy> reppel: try #ubuntu+1
[07:47] <greenmanwitch> when booting, how do I get rid of the splash screen?
[07:47] <greenmanwitch> livecd
[07:47] <Hoarde> I thought xubuntu was another linux thing? do I need to wipe and reinstall it?
[07:47] <nickrud> decay: after I extracted the driver, what I ended up with was all of the *.fw files in the DRIVER subdir of the extracted driver in /lib/firmware. But you need to be sure you get the right driver, so you get the right firmware
[07:47] <Starnestommy> that channel knows more about hardy
[07:47] <Hoarde> like installing Win98 over winxp ?
[07:47] <frold> when will 8.04 be out when we talk about upgrading :D
[07:48] <prince_jammys> Hoarde: you don't need to uninstall anything to try the other desktops. you just install them, and select which you want from the login screen (under "sessions")
[07:48] <Starnestommy> april?
[07:48] <greenmanwitch> frold: I think   it is 24/4
[07:48] <icesword> frold: when?#ubuntu+1
[07:48] <SatMan> will I break any laws if I install Windows 98 in virtual machine?
[07:48] <SatMan> pirated
[07:48] <kruqnu1> yea i had permission set for everyone, with full control
[07:48] <prince_jammys> Hoarde: you can do it without any commitment
[07:48] <alkasteve> we'd make you walk the plank?
[07:48] <kruqnu1> i added "ANONYMOUS LOGON" maybe that will help
[07:49] <prince_jammys> Hoarde: linux style :)
[07:49] <decay> nickrud: i'm confused. lol. would you mind guiding me? i believe i have most of it set up here
[07:49] <Starnestommy> SatMan: if it's pirated, you broke the law by obtaining the pirated copy.
[07:49] <greenmanwitch> SatMan: possession of 98 pirated is illegal
[07:49] <kruqnu1> ill be back to try again
[07:49] <kruqnu1> brb
[07:49] <googling> kruqnu1: what version of windows?
[07:49] <greenmanwitch> SatMan: but most will turn a blind eye to that
[07:49] <frold> okay greenmanwitch
[07:49] <kruqnu1> oh
[07:49] <googling> kruqnu1: ok
[07:49] <kruqnu1> xp pro
[07:49] <killown> does exaile has any lastfm plugin?
[07:49] <Hoarde> prince_jammys: kay... I'm in add/remove applications and I cant find a search for xubuntu ?
[07:49] <flowOver> not in canada you didn't break any laws
[07:49] <ankitj> phix:it gives error; invalid argument
[07:49] <flowOver> ;) :D
[07:49] <SatMan> how can I purchase windows 98/ME (any cheapest windows version)>
[07:49] <greenmanwitch> killown: #exaile, yes
[07:49] <flowOver> they don't sell it anymore
[07:50] <flowOver> you're only allowed ot buy one of the $300 versions
[07:50] <prince_jammys> Hoarde: mmmm. search using Synaptic instead, or just type:::  sudo apt-get install xubuntu-desktop     in a terminal
[07:50] <SatMan> is there a way to encrypt the content of a virtual machine? =)
[07:51] <Hoarde> 208 meg
[07:51] <Hoarde> lol
[07:51] <greenmanwitch> How do I get out of the splash screen when booting ubuntu?
[07:51] <prince_jammys> Hoarde: "add/remove" is not as comprehensive as Synaptic (or apt-get)
[07:51] <Hoarde> prince_jammys: To be honest... I dont know what that means... I just look at the button that says "Add/Remove" and there's a whole lot of stuff that isnt ticked
[07:51] <SatMan> which is $300 now?
[07:52] <thirdy> Good pm everyone
[07:52] <nickrud> decay: looking at some stuff, refreshing my memory
[07:52] <amazing> hello
[07:53] <nickrud> decay: do you have bcm43xx-fwcutter installed?
[07:53] <prince_jammys> Hoarde: add/remove is one way of installing software, but it doesn't have all the packages available.  there's another app called "synaptic" in your System->Administration menu
[07:53] <decay> nickrud: yes. (on the link you sent me, i did the top part, i plugged in an ethernet cord and installed the restricted driver, aka fwcutter)
[07:54] <tyguaike> style ubuntu ?
[07:54] <frold> greenmanwitch: you were right according to https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardyReleaseSchedule
[07:54] <flowOver> SatMan: that was only a stab at microsofts pricing scheme.
[07:54] <flowOver> most of the os's they sell are > $300
[07:54] <phix> back
[07:54] <greenmanwitch> frold: wow, and I don't even use ubuntu. What's the point of wikipedia when there is me? :D
[07:54] <prince_jammys> Hoarde: another way is from the command line.  the way you would do it is to go Applications->Terminal and on the prompt type:::  sudo apt-get install xubuntu-desktop     hit enter, type your password, and it will install
[07:54] <nickrud> decay: ok, we're gonna do the server version. But first,   lsmod | grep ndiswrapper , make sure it's not running
[07:55] <phix> ankitj: hmmmm, set to adhoc mode then
[07:55] <ankitj> phix:ok
[07:55] <Hoarde> yeah I did the terminal one
[07:55] <frold> I guess greenmanwitch is a wikipedia bot....
[07:55] <phix> ankitj: set adhoc on both
[07:55] <GiddyKong> umm ive got a strange problem
[07:55] <GiddyKong> the outside of my windows are gone :S
[07:56] <greenmanwitch> frold: hehehe
[07:56] <decay> nickrud: typed that, nothing happened
[07:56] <ankitj> phix:doing
[07:56] <prince_jammys> Hoarde: once, that's done, you can log out and on the login screen click on "session" and change it to "xubuntu" or "xfce" and you'll login with the xubuntu desktop
[07:56] <david> GiddyKong: i suppose you installed compiz?
[07:56] <nickrud> decay: good.  lsmod | grep bcm
[07:56] <phix> ankitj: which computer is connected to the ADSL modem?
[07:56] <GiddyKong> umm yeah
[07:56] <david> quick assumption: you removed decorations
[07:56] <Daisuke_Ido> GiddyKong: alt-f2, type emerald --replace
[07:56] <thirdy> whats the best archive extractor for Rar for ubuntu?
