[00:01] <exodus_ms> lumpycam, cool, going to sign off and log in again and see if the changes work :)
[00:01] <scunizi_> mortuis99: sometimes trash will show that it has something that is actually in a .trash folder on an external device like a usb stick or drive.
[00:02] <rivitingone> lumpycam: The files I need are on another computer. I need to network them somehow.
[00:02] <devil> hey guys im having problems with compiz. my restricted drivers are activated. but when i hit compiz icon it gives me the following error and nothing happens. http://pastebin.com/m3759d758 how can i solve this problem?
[00:02] <lumpycam> rivitingone: sounds like you need samba.
[00:02] <mortuis99> scunizi_ that MIGHT be it but is there a way to still clear it?
[00:02] <ziggy1> running from a live disk, how do I save my current changes so I can start in this state when I get back?

[00:03] <ZellSF> what is the package containing non-free video codecs called?
[00:03] <Slash00> hey I would like to get rid of windows completely, so how can i do it from ubuntu
[00:03] <Artelus> can someone help me install ubuntu? :)
[00:03] <mortuis99> scunizi_ im not sure the device.  and it might not exist anymore
[00:03] <scunizi_> mortuis99: could also be a camera that you plugged in and deleted images off of.. there will be a hidden trash on the memory card of that device.
[00:04] <fosco_> Slash00: use gparted to delete all windows partitions
[00:04] <__MAV> Hello everybody
[00:04] <Slash00> ok, thanks
[00:04] <__MAV> Where is Xgl on ubuntu 8.10 ?
[00:04] <scunizi_> mortuis99: also if everything looks clear you may find the status will change after rebooting.
[00:04] <Artelus> can someone help me? ^^
[00:04] <__MAV> I need it to setup a multi-seat configuration
[00:05] <wsgordon_> how do i empty the trash in gnome, no icon
[00:05] <rivitingone> lumpycam: This doc says I don't need samba, just smbfs. https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MountWindowsSharesPermanently
[00:05] <kitche> __MAV: XGL is no longer around
[00:05] <rivitingone> lumpycam: Is samba better?
[00:05] <fosco_> wsgordon_: please, expand
[00:06] <__MAV> kitche: What is the replacement for Xgl then ?
[00:06] <Artelus> Can anyone here help me?
[00:06] <chilli0> hello all
[00:06] <__MAV> hi
[00:06] <scunizi_> !ask | Artelus
[00:06] <kitche> __MAV: just xorg AIGLX
[00:07] <Artelus> ok
[00:07] <chilli0> is there anyway i can start a download at say 4.00 am ? like a program that starts it
[00:07] <Artelus> I can't get the partitioner to work
[00:07] <kitche> __MAV: novell stopped XGL since xorg came out with their own version
[00:07] <lumpycam> rivitingone: i never used it, i assume that url is the way to go.
[00:07] <scunizi_> Artelus: are you trying to install ubuntu or do something else?
[00:07] <Artelus> I can't seem to get the partitioner to work while installing ubuntu, it just stays at 0%
[00:08] <Artelus> I don't have much experience partitioning, so  im not really sure what to do...
[00:08] <__MAV> kitche: uh-oh
[00:08] <lumpycam> rivitingone: smb stands for samba, i believe. or you can dance the samba but that won't work :)
[00:08] <__MAV> I'm trying 3 days to setup multi-seat on ubuntu wih no luck
[00:08] <scunizi_> Artelus: did you start the install after windows was booted? or did you boot directly to the live cd?
[00:08] <sheena1> i think i need to upgrade my ubuntu from 8.04. i'm wondering what data i will lose if i do this
[00:09] <Artelus> i booted directly from the live cd
[00:09] <giaco> hello!
[00:09] <kulawend> Is anyone aware of any good music mixing software for Linux?
[00:09] <__MAV> I have found a nice solution of nested X servers with Xgl
[00:09] <scunizi_> Artelus: and do you you want to create a dual boot machine or just have Ubuntu on the entire thing?
[00:09] <hspaans> kulawend: audicity
[00:09] <lumpycam> sheena1: you shouldn't lose anything.
[00:09] <__MAV> but there is no Xgl in 8.10
[00:09] <Artelus> dual boot :)
[00:09] <sheena1> lumpycam: i won't lose software installed, settings, files, anything?
[00:10] <Lucient> i want to be able to acess my external drive, but when i plug it in, it doesnt mount. do i need to enable ntfs?
[00:10] <__MAV> is there any way I can download and install Xgl separately ?
[00:10] <kulawend> hspaans: I'm thinking more on the lines of DJ software.
[00:10] <scunizi_> Artelus: when you got to the partitioning portion of the install did you choose "Guided" or automatic or what?
[00:10] <Artelus> Guided
[00:10] <lumpycam> sheena1: intrepid will make some system changes, but data in /home/ remains the same.
[00:10] <Artelus> There are 2 partitions i think, one is 3% and another is 97%
[00:11] <Artelus> i resized the 97% one and gave 30GB to ubuntu
[00:11] <hole_> how do i use .patch files? i am trying to install direct3d wrap for wine
[00:11] <mn> What are the advantages of putting /home in another partition?
[00:11] <johninlex> hello all
[00:11] <giaco> I', using ubuntu 8.10 up-to-date with xfce DE, my problem is: if I open an application that use audio (ex. vlc ) later every flash video in firefox stutters, both video and audio. I think it's a problem correlated to pulseaudio or mixer because it's a recent problem
[00:11] <scunizi_> Artelus: so there were two partitions when you started? or you created one extra partition?  Is windows installed now?
[00:12] <hspaans> mn: reinstall becomes easier
[00:12] <Dr_willis_> mn you can reinstall and not worry aout loseing /home
[00:12] <shear> Hi! Can anyone help me with a problem I'm having mounting USB Mass Storage devices? Details of what I've done so far are here: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=6476221
[00:12] <johninlex> happy new year
[00:12] <Artelus> Yeah, I'm using windows right now
[00:12] <sheena1> lumpycam: excuse my ignorance, i'm very new to the idea of upgrading without losing everything (ex-windows user) as for /home, are my programs saved in there? I have some software installed that i run through wine (taken of CDroms) and then all the stuff i got through Add/Remove. I'd hate to have to replace it all.
[00:12] <Artelus> and there are 2 partitions when I started.
[00:12] <ziggy1> gurr
[00:12] <ari_stress> happy new year guys :)
[00:12] <fosco_> mn: you can easily preserve your personal data when reinstalling the system
[00:12] <ZellSF> how do I get Opera
[00:12] <hole_> how do i use .patch files? i am trying to install direct3d wrap for wine
[00:12] <lumpycam> sheena1: not to worry, you won't lose anything.

[00:12] <ZellSF> it's not in archive.canonical.com
[00:13] <savvas> ZellSF: www.opera.com
[00:13] <scunizi_> Artelus: so can you see both partitions from inside windows?
[00:13] <Dr_willis_> hole_,  those are for if you are compileing wine...
[00:13] <iShock> Hey someone, what's this mean and how can I fix it? glib.GError: no element "stamp"
[00:13] <fosco_> eddy: system - prefereneces - appearance - fonts
[00:13] <hole_> oh
[00:13] <Artelus> I think so, I have a C: drive and a D: drive.
[00:13] <ZellSF> isn't it in repositories any longer?
[00:13] <hole_> ok
[00:13] <hole_> darn
[00:13] <sheena1> lumpycam: okay! here goes nothing! :)
[00:13] <Artelus> The D drive is for recovery
[00:13] <iShock> Hey someone, what's this mean and how can I fix it? glib.GError: no element "stamp"
[00:14] <scunizi_> Artelus: is this a laptop?
[00:14] <Artelus> Nope, it's a desktop ^^
[00:14] <ziggy1> can I use my hp_recovery hdd to fix my mbr?
[00:14] <ari_stress> is there any way i can open a password-protected rar file?
[00:14] <savvas> ZellSF: nope, but you can add it in the repositories
[00:14] <ziggy1> *trough wine
[00:15] <lumpycam> sheena1: i would advise you to disable effects, thats  safer.
[00:15] <Dr_willis_> ari_stress,  you could always encrypt it.. Or use winrar and wine to make a encrypted rar i guess..
[00:15] <eddy> thanks!
[00:15] <ziggy1> there are boot files, so I figured I could just copy the backup ones
[00:15] <ZellSF> hmm, oh well
[00:15] <Artelus> So, what should I do?
[00:15] <giaco> I'm, using ubuntu 8.10 up-to-date with xfce DE, my problem is: if I open an application that use audio (ex. vlc ) later every flash video in firefox stutters, both video and audio. I think it's a problem correlated to pulseaudio or mixer because it's a recent problem
[00:15] <ZellSF> anyone knows what the non-free video codecs are called?
[00:15] <Artelus> should I partition it with the installer? It doesn't seem like it's working but I don't know
[00:15] <scunizi_> Artelus: ok.. when you get back to the live cd and run the installer.. when you get to the partitioner the first option is pretty much an automatic install option. choose that.. and it will do the partition for you.
[00:15] <keres> my nautilus cannot connect to an sftp. gftp can, but i hate gftp. any ideas?
[00:15] <rivitingone> ziggy1: What is mbr?
[00:16] <ziggy1> master boot record
[00:16] <savvas> ZellSF: install the package ubuntu-restricted-extras
[00:16] <sheena1> lumpycam: does updating require a reboot? do i need to close and save, etc first?
[00:16] <ziggy1> need someone who knows alot about it to help me out in pm for a few minutes
[00:16] <ZellSF> ah thanks
[00:16] <scunizi_> Artelus: you might have to choose the largest partition you have to put ubuntu on (or partition some space for ubuntu on it.)
[00:16] <sp00f3r> hey im new on ubuntu and i would like to install wine hq, can somebody guide me to the right path?
[00:16] <Artelus> Can I use another program to make a partition?
[00:16] <lumpycam> sheena1: after it completes, yes a full restart is required.
[00:16] <Artelus> Would that be a good idea?

[00:17] <nome> hello shena
[00:18] <ZellSF> tritium: sure doesn't seem like it
[00:18] <tritium> ZellSF: ?
[00:18] <ZellSF> I can only find the flash player there
[00:18] <scunizi_> Artelus: why?  you could use windows to create a partition just don't format it. Leave it as unpartitined space.. when ubuntu installs it will use that space and actually do another partition, one for install and one for swap
[00:18] <Artelus> Ok
[00:18] <alanTripBR> hey guyz, where can I search for some good tutorial for wep cracking on ubuntu 8.10?
[00:18] <lumpycam> keres: i think sftp requires ssh to be installed. not certain but likely.
[00:18] <tritium> ZellSF: do you have that repo enabled?
[00:18] <sp00f3r> tritium:  what did you said?
[00:18] <cuddlefish> alanTripBR: Why?
[00:18] <Artelus> So I can manually make a new partition, and choose it when im inside the installer?
[00:18] <ZellSF> tritium: how else could I find the flash player there? O_o
[00:19] <cuddlefish> alanTripBR: That's usually illegal...
[00:19] <Artelus> but if I make a partition manually, can I remove it myself?
[00:19] <tritium> sp00f3r: sorry, that was for savvas
[00:19] <alanTripBR> thats for internal security

[00:19] <scunizi_> sp00f3r: so you think you're going to be able to install swat4? in wine?  you'll need to check with wine's site to see compatability
[00:19] <ZellSF> I've already just installed the deb

[00:19] <savvas> tritium: well, either way, I use the opera deb repository :)
[00:19] <sp00f3r> i have seen videos of ppl playing swat with wine
[00:19] <ZellSF> doesn't look very native though, does a shared version do that or can't I do that?
[00:19] <scunizi_> Artelus: with windows ..? yes..
[00:19] <ZellSF> outside of skins that is
[00:19] <ziggy1> rivitingone: pm ?
[00:20] <Artelus> ok, thanks ^^
[00:20] <tritium> ZellSF: well, it's there
[00:20] <lumpycam> keres: no idea. sorry.
[00:20] <tritium> savvas: why?  Official ubuntu repos would be the preferred and recommended method.
[00:20] <ZellSF> it's not under World Wide Web (partner)
[00:21] <scunizi_> Artelus: just remember that one single harddrive can't have any more than 4 primary partitions.. if you need more then the 4th one needs to be an "extended" partition and then more can be created inside of that.

[00:34] <aleksN^> Is it possible to run 2 different ubuntu versions at the same time, like separated?
[00:34] <yogi192> ActionParsnip, i mean single board computer, like Ampro readyboard 700
[00:34] <rccu> aleksN^: vm
[00:34] <PowerEd> some one there had problem with initramfs, on ubuntu 8.10?
[00:34] <scunizi_> aleksN^: yes.. virtual box
[00:34] <DIFH-iceroot> aleksN^: virtual machine
[00:34] <Dr_willis_> Brawling,  the 'samba-doc' package has  several books on that topic. and more samba goodness. :) you would either  mount them from fstab, or use.. err.. i forget.. smbmnt command I think. :)
[00:34] <ActionParsnip> yogi192: yeah just websearched. I'd see what chips are on them and check the hcl
[00:34] <PowerEd> anyone can help here?
[00:35] <PowerEd> please
[00:35] <bobbob1016> Dr_willis_, I want mplayer to run on the remote machine, just have my local machine control it.  Basically, I want to have my ssh terminal act like it is one on the remote machine.
[00:35] <maynards-girl> is there an app similar to iMovie for ubuntu?
[00:35] <norcim122> how do you set networking setting perminently? i need to change MTU
[00:35] <ActionParsnip> aleksN^: its kinda moot as its ubuntu underneath
[00:35] <yogi192> ActionParsnip, hcl, hardware ? ?, sorry
[00:35] <ActionParsnip> aleksN^: you can install the same apps on each *buntu
[00:35] <jussi01> !info openmovieeditor | maynards-girl
[00:35] <Dr_willis_> bobbob1016,  last i looked mplayer did have a 'cli' interface.. You could run it remotely, and then controll it from a ssh'd in terminal
[00:35] <ActionParsnip> !hcl | yogi192
[00:35] <Brawling> Dr, thanks for the info.  I'll head over the the samba site and dig through the doc a bit more. (Was over there before, but you sent me in a different direction now.)
[00:35] <Dr_willis_> Brawling,  samba-doc is a package you can install :)
[00:35] <maynards-girl> thanks jussi01
[00:36] <ZellSF> hmm I can't figure out how to run a shell script
[00:36] <yogi192> ActionParsnip, let me check that page out, thank you
[00:36] <norcim122> how do you set networking setting perminently? i need to change MTU setting?
[00:36] <bobbob1016> Dr_willis_, That is what I'm asking for help with, I remember the code was "Display=0.0; mplayer /path/to/file" or something, just not sure the syntax
[00:36] <ziggy1> how to save your livedisk session?
[00:36] <norcim122> ziggy set it to presistent

[00:37] <ActionParsnip> norcim122: have a websearch round but you can put stuff in there to set it i believe
[00:37] <ZellSF> hmm how do I run a shell script
[00:37] <jzitt> I'm trying to connect to my dropbox account. It installed and ran fine, but after a reboot (caused by power outage), I can't seem to figure out what to do to connect it up again. Anyone familiar with this, or know of a more appropriate channel?
[00:38] <__MAV> How can I download Xgl package from ubuntu 8.04 ?
[00:38] <gopp> sh shell.sh
[00:38] <redvamp128> I have another hard drive in a different computer same model-- I am running Ibex on this one -- and the other is running a 8.04/Win2k dual boot-- and I want to add the second hard drive an boot to the other drive-- tried adding to gurb but all win2k did was hang on startup= then 8.04 -panicked-  anyone know hot to fix this ( I tried editing grub to direct them to the second drive)
[00:38] <gopp> sudo sh shell.sh
[00:38] <ZellSF> ah thanks
[00:38] <norcim122> ActionParsnip: I tryed searching but asking here was better chance
[00:38] <aleksN^> The thing is that I've got an server with ubuntu 7.04 that has some voip-servers running, and it works fine, but now I'm in need of installing an eggdrop, but I'm not able cause my ubuntu is out of date. IS it possbile to run the ubuntu 7.04 that I'm currently using, and also have the newest version of ubuntu, without bying vmware etc.
[00:38] <gopp> !script > ZellSF
[00:38] <norcim122> ziggy1: where is your live cd installed
[00:38] <PowerEd> the answers on the forums has not effect
[00:38] <ActionParsnip> ZellSF: put #!/bin/bash at the top of a text file, then put commnds like a script
[00:38] <ActionParsnip> norcim122: let me search
[00:38] <ziggy1> my live disk isn't installed
[00:39] <ziggy1> I've got a pavillion dv6000 here and an extern hdd, with a partition I use for ubuntu. I installed ubuntu but forgot to set the grub on that too so the grub is now on the main hdd from the laptop. After that I reinstalled ubuntu with a decent seperate boot partition on the right disk : but its an external one and it won't start but neither does the main intern hdd since it has a grub on it that is linked to an unexisting partition now. What can I do to fi
[00:39] <churl> my nm-applet is not in the panel any ideas?
[00:39] <ziggy1> there is my situation
[00:39] <hollywoodb> aleksN^: you can dual-boot, or run one in a virtual machine, but that's about it
[00:39] <norcim122> ActionParsnip: I have tried ipconfig eth0 MTU 1500 but after reboot it goes back
[00:39] <yogi192> ActionParsnip, if i have the drivers for this board, which was labeled for fedora linux, can it be used for ubuntu?
[00:39] <ActionParsnip> norcim122: http://www.debianadmin.com/change-mtu-maximum-transmission-unit-of-network-interface.html
[00:39] <ziggy1> but I wanna save what I did in this session
[00:39] <ziggy1> changes I made , installs I did
[00:39] <vostro1510> hi
[00:39] <bobbob1016> Dr_willis_, I've been using Linux for a few years, I know case is important......  I know it is DISPLAY, just easier to type Display here, but I don't know the rest of the syntax
[00:39] <vostro1510> cheers. :-)
[00:39] <ActionParsnip> yogi192: should be fine as far as i can tell
[00:39] <syahril> how to upgrading ubuntu using .iso file
[00:40] <syahril> ?
[00:40] <vostro1510> I am looking for users with Dell notebook Vostro 1510
[00:40] <bobbob1016> Dr_willis_, As in "DISPLAY=0.0;" or what?
[00:40] <csc_> do anyone used the usb-creator tool to make a live-usb system ?
[00:40] <vostro1510> the "too hot" notebook.
[00:40] <ActionParsnip> norcim122: keep it lower case, linux is CasE SEnsITivE
[00:40] <norcim122> ActionParsnip: I will try to help ziggy then try your link
[00:40] <Dr_willis_> bobbob1016,  i think its DISPLAY=0:0  or was it 0.0  (try it and see?)
[00:40] <scunizi_> vostro1510: how 'bout vostro 1401
[00:40] <ActionParsnip> norcim122: or you can put mtu xxx in the interfaces file
[00:40] <vostro1510> well.
[00:40] <bobbob1016> Dr_willis_, I've tried both, no luck
[00:40] <yogi192> ActionParsnip, thanks bro, im encourage to tackle this project, thanx
[00:40] <vostro1510> I am trying to solve problem with heating
[00:40] <PowerEd> any developer on-line? i really like to use ubuntu, but i have not enough time to search and fix troubles of this kind. i sincerely thanks some help.
[00:40] <vostro1510> 1401 is the same?
[00:40] <Dr_willis_> bobbob1016,   X security maybe blocking it ', thats why i mentined the 'xhost + localhost' command earlier.
[00:40] <Tidus> vostro1510: i have an hp dv8327 that gets a tad bit warm
[00:41] <csc_> i d like to know whether it is possible to install an ubuntu system from the live USB key created with usb-creator
[00:41] <Tidus> and had an older dell inspiron 5100 that would burn your leg hairs off
[00:41] <aleksN^> hollywoodb; is it possible to run a program or something that updates the files that need to be updatet for my ubuntu 7.04, or is it a completely new os?
[00:41] <vostro1510> I am thinking about sending it back to Dell.
[00:41] <scunizi_> vostro1510: close.. but I don't seem to have a heating issue unless it's on my lap and I've plugged the bottom intake vents.
[00:41] <ziggy1> nocrim122: pm if you please
[00:41] <vostro1510> To hot
[00:41] <evowill__> csc_: Yes
[00:41] <vostro1510> Mine is to hot.
[00:42] <Tidus> vostro1510: if it sits in your lap, try arranging it so the intake vent on the bottom isn't plugged
[00:42] <vostro1510> hd is at 53 C
[00:42] <vostro1510> no
[00:42] <norcim122> ziggy1:  is this a new install?
[00:42] <vostro1510> it is on a table.
[00:42] <scunizi_> vostro1510: have you checked dells support site? or ubuntuforms.org
[00:42] <vostro1510> metal table.
[00:42] <vostro1510> yes
[00:42] <vostro1510> I read a lot
[00:42] <aremay2> vostro 1510: i think that temp is normal
[00:42] <vostro1510> Tried with badvista too.
[00:42] <vostro1510> but my hands are really felling the heat
[00:42] <Tidus> vostro1510: 53c for the hard disk isn't too bad in a laptop... that's about what mine runs at
[00:43] <vostro1510> Uau...
[00:43] <kevdog> Anyone here no anything about hotplugging network cards -- udev?
[00:43] <aremay2> mine when running ubuntu a little bit warm than vista
[00:43] <vostro1510> but your hand feels the heating?
[00:43] <vostro1510> Ubuntu runs great
[00:43] <Tidus> vostro1510: not really
[00:43] <hollywoodb> aleksN^: I'm not sure exactly what you mean.  You can dist-upgrade, but it does require a reboot
[00:43] <vostro1510> update to 8.1 from 8.04
[00:43] <vostro1510> using nvidia drivers.
[00:43] <vostro1510> works nice
[00:43] <bobbob1016> Dr_willis_, What's the syntax of that?
[00:43] <scunizi_> vostro1510: what do you use to check the temp?
[00:43] <vostro1510> well, mine is heat
[00:43] <Tidus> vostro1510: mine doesn't really feel the heat... hp got the shielding right on mine
[00:43] <kevdog> udev?
[00:44] <vostro1510> well.
[00:44] <Tidus> vostro1510: dell has a bad habit of using the keyboard shielding as a heatsink
[00:44] <vostro1510> yes
[00:44] <vostro1510> my touchpad is warm
[00:44] <vostro1510> hot is better.
[00:44] <Tidus> see my trackpad's a bit warm but the keyboard's not
[00:44] <jzitt> I wish there were a way to get this stuff to actually work the same way twice in a row.
[00:45] <Tidus> the hard disk in mine's mounted directly underneath the trackpad
[00:45] <vostro1510> yes, mine too.
[00:45] <issa_> Hi, is there a program that allows installation of virtual systems (like windows?) I've seen a similar program on windows and mac tha allow using another operating system while logged in to windows or mac, can this be done in ubuntu and have a windows installation be accessed from a single window?
[00:45] <Tidus> vostro1510: tell me this. put your hand on the upper left corner of the machine, where the screen meets the body. how warm is it?
[00:45] <Letter_Z> Whennever I try to do something viaa the terminal,  it tells me that I'm not root, but this is the account I made during the Ubuntu install
[00:46] <aremay2> issa : VMware or virtualbox willl the trick :D
[00:46] <savvas> issa_: www.virtualbox.org
[00:46] <Letter_Z> Whats up with that?
[00:46] <Tidus> Letter_Z: use sudo
[00:46] <Letter_Z> I did
[00:46] <issa_> aremay2: savvas are these programs free?
[00:46] <Tidus> Letter_Z: sudo <command>
[00:46] <vostro1510> Tidus
[00:46] <vostro1510> just like my touchpad
[00:46] <savvas> issa_: no games though, no directx fully supported yet :)
[00:46] <Letter_Z> But I'm trying to open port 51412 and sudo wont do it
[00:46] <vostro1510> as warm as
[00:46] <jzitt> dropboxd appears to be running, but nautilus isn't noticing it. Do I have to do something to Nautilus to get it to notice?
[00:46] <savvas> yes issa_
[00:46] <aremay2> issa: yes it is
[00:46] <Tidus> vostro1510: so the whole body of the machine's warm?
[00:46] <chilli0> Does anyone know how to use at?
[00:47] <vostro1510> no
[00:47] <vostro1510> right side is no hot
[00:47] <aleksN^> hollywoodb; If that is the best and easiest solution I'll do that. Will it delete som data? Will it update my ubuntu to the newest ubuntu?  do you got an guide or howto for dist-upgrade?
[00:47] <issa_> savvas: aremay2 can they actually run sound and everything?
[00:47] <issa_> savvas: aremay2 and internet as well?
[00:47] <churl> my nm-applet is not in the panel any ideas? xubuntu 8.10
[00:47] <savvas> I don't about "and everything", but yes to internet and sound issa_
[00:47] <Tidus> aleksN^: in a terminal, run 'sudo update-manager -d'
[00:47] <savvas> *don't know
[00:48] <aremay2> issa: Positive
[00:48] <Tidus> aleksN^: if you're on 7.04 you're in for a LONG upgrade... 7.04 -> .10 -> 8.04 -> .10
[00:48] <hollywoodb> aleksN^: which version are you running? 7.04?
[00:48] <iShock> Anyone used VLC to open a stream from a site?
[00:48] <issa_> savvas: aremay2 : thanks
[00:48] <aleksN^> 7.04, yes
[00:48] <vostro1510> yes
[00:48] <aremay2> you're welcome issa
[00:48] <vostro1510> vlc using a stream from url
[00:48] <hollywoodb> aleksN^: you would want to upgrade to 7.10, then 8.04.  You would want to keep 8.04 on your server since that is a LTS release, and will receive updates for a much longer time than a regular release
[00:48] <iShock> Anyone used VLC to open a stream from a site?
[00:49] <ZellSF> any way to get eeepc hotkeys working?
[00:49] <Tidus> vostro1510: so it's just the trackpad and the back-left corner of the machine that gets warm to the touch?
[00:49] <aleksN^> So I just type sudo update-manager -d, and it will update itself to 8.04?
[00:49] <vostro1510> Is there a channel to discuss about notebooks?
[00:49] <vostro1510> yes
[00:49] <vostro1510> left side
[00:49] <vostro1510> near touchpad
[00:49] <Tidus> aleksN^: it'll update to 7.10 first
[00:50] <tyranos> ZellSF, have you tried looking at ubuntu-eee
[00:50] <Tidus> aleksN^: then 8.04
[00:50] <vostro1510> up keyboard too
[00:50] <ZellSF> tyranos: uh?
[00:50] <aleksN^> without removing my data on the disc?
[00:50] <vostro1510> I mean, left side in the keyboard area is hot too
[00:50] <Tidus> aleksN^: i'd have backups, but it's generally safe
[00:50] <ZellSF> No I have ubuntu installed atm
[00:50] <savvas> aleksN^: it's called upgrade, not format :)
[00:50] <sammyF> hey there. Anybody knows why commercial DVDs can't be mounted anymore on my system since I upgraded to intrepid? I'm getting "you're not authorized to mount [whatever]". manually mounting using sudo works, but the cdrom entry has just a very high number as owner and group, and I can't play anything :/
[00:50] <aleksN^> Thanks a lot hollywoodb and Tidus =)
[00:50] <Tidus> vostro1510: it just sounds like dell decided to use the internal shielding as a heatsink
[00:50] <ZellSF> I just need to get the volume control working
[00:51] <vostro1510> Uau
[00:51] <vostro1510> it is bad...
[00:51] <issa_> savvas: aremay2: So installing windows can also be directly from virtualbox? And do I have to create a seperate partition?
[00:51] <tyranos> ZellSF, i have ubuntu-eee running on my eee it is the same as the nomal version but with only hardware drivers forr eeepc and everything works out of the box
[00:51] <vostro1510> too hot to use
[00:51] <vostro1510> I will talk to them tomorrow (Brasil)
[00:51] <vostro1510> Bought by phone.
[00:51] <Tidus> vostro1510: what i normally do with my laptop is i have a couple of rubber pegs mounted to the backside, in the same fashion that a keyboard uses to tilt
[00:51] <ZellSF> installing another distrobution isn't an option atm
[00:51] <savvas> issa_: no, generally virtual machines create a file which they use as a virtual disk space
[00:52] <Letter_Z> Transmission wont download torrents, I checked and port 51412 is closed, I did sudo iptables -A INPUT -p tcp -d 0/0 --dport 51412 -j ACCEPT and it didn't work
[00:52] <vostro1510> Never thought it would be so hot
[00:52] <vostro1510> hummm.
[00:52] <vostro1510> back side is upper.
[00:52] <Tidus> vostro1510: it lifts the back end off the table by a couple cm and allows more heat to escape out the back
[00:52] <tyranos> ZellSF, well u dont have to , just check www.array.org
[00:52] <aleksN^> savvas; had to be sure ;p
[00:52] <vostro1510> but is it normal?
[00:52] <Letter_Z> Is there any way I can fix that?
[00:52] <ZellSF> tyfoo2: that page tells me nothing
[00:52] <ericrost> when copying to a mounted nfs share through nautilus on ubuntu 8.04.1 the complete file copies, but the dialog hangs at the end for a long time and it gives an error message saying that it failed to close the file, any ideas how to fix?
[00:52] <vostro1510> Man, I feel it hot.
[00:52] <vostro1510> My hands are hot too.
[00:52] <savvas> aleksN^: backup backup backup - better safe than sorry!
[00:52] <Tidus> vostro1510: a lot of notebook computers have a small degree of tilt to them
[00:53] <__MAV> How do I install g++ in ubuntu 8.10 ?
[00:53] <Tidus> vostro1510: try my suggestion of putting a couple rubber pegs under the backside just like you would see on a keyboard to tilt it
[00:53] <Nox2k3> Hey I'm trying to get bluetooth audio working with 32-bit wine apps and 64-bit alsa. It seems that most of the alsa modules exist compiled for 32-bits except the bluetooth module: http://paste.ubuntu.com/97945/
[00:53] <vostro1510> sure
[00:53] <vostro1510> I will try it.
[00:53] <vostro1510> about 2 cms
[00:53] <vostro1510> ok?
[00:53] <Nox2k3> Is there a package somewhere I can install to get a 32-bit version of that module, or am I going to have to compile it myself
[00:53] <__MAV> How do I install g++ in ubuntu 8.10 ?
[00:53] <Tidus> yeah
[00:53] <savvas> vostro1510: do you have the same problem while using other operating systems, say windows?
[00:53] <tyranos> ZellSF, read carefully before doing anything , all u have to do is to add that repository to your /etc/apt/sources.list and then u get another kernel so u wont lose anything
[00:54] <jzitt> Trying to figure out how to start a nautilus extension, since it didn't appear to have started automatically.
[00:54] <vostro1510> yes
[00:54] <issa_> savvas: so it does not matter what type of partition it is or wether it's used by other files or not, all that is needed are memory and space, correct?
[00:54] <sammyF> __MAV, install the build essentials. It should be in there
[00:54] <vostro1510> Tried ubuntu, slackware and bad vista
[00:54] <vostro1510> bad vista is original.
[00:54] <vostro1510> came with machine.
[00:54] <ZellSF> well I'd rather just get the package that's supposed to allow the keys to work
[00:54] <Tidus> vostro1510: and even with what came with the computer it just gets too hot to use?
[00:54] <vostro1510> nvidia gpu is at 55 C
[00:54] <sammyF> hey there. Anybody knows why commercial DVDs can't be mounted anymore on my system since I upgraded to intrepid? I'm getting "you're not authorized to mount [whatever]". manually mounting using sudo works, but the cdrom entry has just a very high number as owner and group, and I can't play anything :/ It worked in Hardy :/
[00:54] <vostro1510> yes
[00:54] <fosco_> vostro1510: this is OK
[00:54] <__MAV> thank you
[00:54] <Nautilus__> noob Q... from https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ApacheMySQLPHP#Virtual%20Hosts I am trying to set the mysql root pw "mysql -u root" and I've tried "sudo mysql -u root" too but I get error 1045 (access denied). what do I need to try
[00:55] <vostro1510> It is my first notebook.
[00:55] <vostro1510> Is it normal to work with hands em wrists hot?
[00:55] <Tidus> vostro1510: i would have bought an HP or a lenovo
[00:55] <Tidus> mine doesn't get nearly as hot as you are describing
[00:55] <sammyF> vostro1510, 55C is actually pretty good, considering you're in brasil and probably not in an AC 'd room
[00:55] <tyranos> ZellSF, well each approach should work the other kernel is just optimized for the eee
[00:55] <vostro1510> yes.
[00:55] <vostro1510> Brasil.
[00:55] <vostro1510> NO AC
[00:56] <vostro1510> 29C environment temperature.

[00:56] <__MAV> Tidus thank you
[00:56] <ZellSF> well each approach *should* work, but installing eeepc-acpi-scripts just gives an error
[00:56] <sammyF> vostro1510, West Indies here. When my comp was in a non AC'd room, 55C was "idle" tem
[00:56] <sammyF> temp
[00:56] <__MAV> yeeeeeeeee
[00:56] <savvas> issa_: well.. correct, and to install the virtualbox additions :) which is easy if you use windows as guest operating system (the o/s you are going to virtualise)
[00:57] <Tidus> sammyF: 55C is full load temp on my lappy, lol
[00:57] <__MAV> It's working
[00:57] <vostro1510> 55C in what Tidus?
[00:57] <vostro1510> GPU?
[00:57] <yaro_> Is there a place I can get help with Sugar?
[00:57] <Tidus> vostro1510: CPU and gpu
[00:57] <sammyF> Tidus, yeah ... I was thinking about overclocking the CPU and GPU, and gave up when I saw the idle temperatures ;)
[00:57] <tyranos> ZellSF, just read carefully you ll find out  y
[00:57] <vostro1510> My CPU joes goes to 55 if I really put a lot of job.
[00:57] <vostro1510> normally it is at 35-45
[00:58] <savvas> vostro1510: a suggestion: take it back and complain to the support about the hardware being too hot? :)
[00:58] <ZellSF> tyranos: I read carefully searched for it and ended up on the ubuntu bug tracker
[00:58] <Tidus> sammyF: mine's a core 2 duo T5500, 34W power dissipation. HP decided to mount the cpu and gpu under the same heatsink on mine
[00:58] <sammyF> Tidus, niiiiiiice ;)
[00:58] <Tidus> vostro1510: those temps aren't too bad... just sounds like the hard disk is transmitting too much heat through the keyboard
[00:58] <vostro1510> vostro 1510 use just one heat sink too
[00:58] <vostro1510> yes
[00:58] <vostro1510> I think it too.
[00:58] <sammyF> hey there. Anybody knows why commercial DVDs can't be mounted anymore on my system since I upgraded to intrepid? I'm getting "you're not authorized to mount [whatever]". manually mounting using sudo works, but the cdrom entry has just a very high number as owner and group, and I can't play anything :/ It worked in Hardy :/
[00:58] <ZellSF> oh wait it's the ubuntu-eee bugtracker
[00:59] <Tidus> sammyF: pulled it off and put arctic silver 5 on the cpu and gpu... haven't looked back
[00:59] <vostro1510> I will complain to Dell (try at least. Law here is not to effective like it should)
[00:59] <vostro1510> I will say that I need a notebook, not an oven
[00:59] <rellik_> anyone know how to get amarok to recognize an ipod?  The ipod is listed in 'lshal', and I can see the ipod in 'gtkpod'..  but amarok won't autodetect it..  and when I manually add it to amarok, it can't connect to it
[01:00] <savvas> vostro1510: if you have guarantee, then use it. it goes for hardware parts I think
[01:00] <vostro1510> Yes
[01:00] <sammyF> Tidus, got a noctua cooler and paste on my Q6600 ... but I can still get it to 75C in no time if I start some stresstest ;)
[01:00] <vostro1510> I have.
[01:00] <ZellSF> http://packages.ubuntu.com/intrepid/eeepc-acpi-scripts
[01:00] <vostro1510> And I will use it.
[01:00] <vostro1510> Or try. :-)
[01:00] <churl> my nm-applet is not in the panel any ideas?
[01:00] <ZellSF> how am I supposed to install then when acpi-support-base isn't available?
[01:00] <vostro1510> If nothing helps, I buy a keyboard and everything will be cool :-)
[01:00] <sammyF> I suppose nobody got any idea about my DVD mounting problem ten?
[01:00] <Tidus> vostro1510: one thing you might end up having to do is getting one of those cooling pads for your notebook, the kind with a fan on the bottom to force cold air over the bottom of the notebook
[01:00] <ericrost> any ideas why an nfs share would be hanging forever on a file move?
[01:00] <vostro1510> Just like you said, temperatures appears to be ok.
[01:01] <tyranos> ZellSF, you have to add the repository to your sources.list
[01:01] <ericrost> mv moves the first file then just sits there
[01:01] <ZellSF> tyranos: WHAT repository?
[01:01] <Tidus> sammyF: could be libdvdcss went out of date
[01:01] <vostro1510> yes
[01:01] <Tidus> sammyF: you'll need to update your medibuntu repo if it's enabled to point to intrepid instead of hardy
[01:01] <vostro1510> I thought about the coolers to
[01:02] <vostro1510> Man, Ubuntu community is friendly than Slackware one. :-(
[01:02] <vostro1510> I am a newbie to ubuntu.
[01:02] <vostro1510> :-)
[01:02] <Tidus> vostro1510: everybody starts somewhere :)
[01:02] <thiebaude> vostro1510: welcome
[01:02] <vostro1510> But it is running quiet well in this Vostro. :-)
[01:02] <sammyF> Tidus, so use libdvdcss from hardy instead?
[01:02] <vostro1510> So,
[01:02] <Tidus> sammyF: no, the medibuntu repository for intrepid has it too
[01:03] <vostro1510> can I say notebook are really hot?
[01:03] <Tidus> sammyF: check your sources.list and see if it's pointing the right direction
[01:03] <vostro1510> WIll I have to be acostumated with this hot in my hands?
[01:03] <vostro1510> I update today.
[01:03] <tyranos> ZellSF, http://array.org/ubuntu/setup-hardy.html
[01:03] <Tidus> vostro1510: mine doesn't get that warm, and if you get one of those cooling pads, it should reduce the amount of heat you're feeling
[01:03] <ziggy> nocrim122: I"m back
[01:03] <br0ken1> the gentoo community are probably the meanest lol
[01:03] <vostro1510> I am surprised, because the process worked great. From 8.04 to 8.01
[01:03] <sammyF> Tidus, k. thanks. (next problem is that I just moved and I don't have any internet access on my main comp at the moment ... but I'm afraid nobody but my ISP can help with that ;)
[01:04] <sammyF> Tidus, thanks :)
[01:04] <Tidus> br0ken1: not when i'm in there :)
[01:04] <br0ken1> i went to a gentoo help channel about 2 weeks ago and they were flat out rude
[01:04] <ZellSF> tyranos: told you I would rather not do that.
[01:04] <vostro1510> I just discoreved that GRUB killed the Dell diagnostics ... :-)
[01:05] <br0ken1> i mean i'd take the blame if i did something that could have been taken the wrong way, but this time i didn;t
[01:05] <sammyF> br0ken1, come on ... "RTFM n00b!" is a pretty friendly advice in some channels  ;)
[01:05] <br0ken1> called me dumb for buying a USB dvd burner (which isn't smart, but it was just a temp fix)
[01:05] <jzitt> OK, confirmed that the right files are in /usr/lib/nautilus/extensions-2.0 . It seems just to be ignoring them.
[01:05] <br0ken1> lol
[01:05] <jensor> I would appreciate help setting up file sharing - it used to work one way but not the other . Now it won't work at all.
[01:05] <Tidus> sammyF: i've only seen that spouted off in #debian
[01:05] <sammyF> Tidus, I was trying to avoid actually naming people ;)
[01:06] <br0ken1> gentoo has like an extra built-in n00b filter... installation
[01:06] <br0ken1> it's not as hard as some think, but it's definately harder than ubuntu
[01:06] <Tidus> br0ken1: nothing wrong with a usb dvd burner... i have one attached to my notebook to enable direct disc-to-disc copies
[01:06] <sammyF> br0ken1, well .. Ubuntu is linux for lazy people. On the other hand, personally I don't see any problem with being lazy
[01:06] <br0ken1> well the internal died on a comp i had, and i was in the process of buying a new one so i bought a $75 USB one for the meantime
[01:06] <Tidus> plus it's faster than the built-in one
[01:07] <br0ken1> lol me either
[01:07] <br0ken1> i'm the laziest person ever
[01:07] <jzitt> (Testing... is anyone seeing my messages here?)
[01:07] <tyranos> ZellSF, sry didnt try normal ubuntu on my eee
[01:07] <sammyF> jzitt, no?
[01:07] <br0ken1> so sammyF and Tidus, do u guys work in IT?
[01:08] <vostro1510> I am using Slackwar for a long time.
[01:08] <vostro1510> I am using Ubuntu too.
[01:08] <sammyF> br0ken1, used to. currently working in the unemployed field ;)
[01:08] <churl> my nm-applet is not in the panel any ideas?
[01:08] <jzitt> sammyF: Thanks. I'd been posting for half an hour with no response, so thought I might not be getting through. I *think* I have a straightforwrd question.
[01:08] <br0ken1> that fields fun as long as it's not for too long
[01:08] <vostro1510> I like to have ready packets sometimes!
[01:09] <dexi> Hey can someone tell me how to install a .jar
[01:09] <br0ken1> open the lid
[01:09] <br0ken1> and pour contents into bowl
[01:09] <sammyF> br0ken1, it means I have actually time to watch Firefly (again)
[01:09] <jedi06> on the add/remove applications how can you tell how much disk space it using?
[01:09] <hspaans> dexi: you don't, you run it with java
[01:09] <sammyF> dexi, java blabla.jar
[01:09] <churl> im watching firefly right now
[01:09] <dexi> sammyF: thanks
[01:10] <so20f> tried installing ubuntu, hung up around 83% , sat like that for hours, now i'm tryign to do the rescue broken system, and now kernel hangs with checking hlt operation...
[01:10] <br0ken1> i got my first IT job a couple month ago.. got lucky really because i have no certs, degree or IT job experience... just a geek
[01:10] <sammyF> churl, I can't ... but that's the reason I'm here (and it's solved already
[01:10] <corky`> br0ken1, Ehm, What kind of "IT job"?
[01:10] <dexi> sammyF: its giving me "java: command not found"

[01:12] <dexi> hspaans: thanks
[01:12] <jensor> I would appreciate some help file sharing over a network with XP.
[01:12] <pirateargh> #django
[01:12] <br0ken1> no.. the operators answer phones for like doctors offices and stuff or take orders for people selling products, even take pledges for some PBS stations.. physically go in
[01:12] <hspaans> jensor: search for Samba
[01:12] <br0ken1> we have some linux servers and some windows servers
[01:13] <exodus_ms> !samba
[01:13] <jensor> I have samba installed
[01:13] <Letter_Z> brb, restarting router
[01:14] <jzitt> Hmm... clicking the Start Dropbox icon in the panel appears to do nothing. Is there any further information that I might provide that might enable someone to help me get this thing working?
[01:14] <dexi> does anyone happen to know if its possible to make use of my extra mouse buttons (4 and 5) by customizing them to a keyboard sequence
[01:14] <sammyF> well ... i'm off to watch some old Dr.Who from file :/
[01:14] <sammyF> nighty everyone
[01:14] <dexi> bye sammyF
[01:14] <vostro1510> bye... tks
[01:15] <dexi> aww nobody knows?
[01:16] <ZellSF> so I tried installing the eeepc kernel since I really had no options, I still can't get the hotkey for disabling wireless to work
[01:16] <ZellSF> so other than the bios , how do i disable wireless?
[01:17] <gopp> hi when I try to join the domain I get "ads_connect: No logon servers"
[01:17] <dexi> ZellSF: pull wireless card out! :D
[01:17] <ZellSF> it's not a card you can pull out without a lot of wokr
[01:17] <ZellSF> *work
[01:17] <jzitt> ZellSF: I'm using eeeBuntu on my Eee 701 successfully.
[01:17] <norcim122> how do you set networking setting perminently? i need to change MTU setting?
[01:17] <ZellSF> as said I can't actually change distrobution
[01:18] <norcim122> anyone
[01:18] <dexi> oh! does anyone know if its possible to dock pidgin to the side, so that things dont expand behind it?
[01:19] <hspaans> norcim122: setting mtu-setting shouldn't be needed nowadays
[01:19] <ZellSF> also is it possible to disable clicking on the touchpad itself creating a left click?
[01:21] <norcim122> hspaans: I need it
[01:21] <norcim122> my default is 561
[01:21] <norcim122> need it to be 1500
[01:21] <dexi> I just downloading kubuntu-desktop, and its telling me that i need to decide between gdm and kdm, does it make a big difference?
[01:21] <norcim122> hspaans: sorry it is 576
[01:22] <Sylphid> norcim122, http://www.debianhelp.co.uk/mtu.htm
[01:22] <norcim122> hspaans: my downloads suffer
[01:22] <norcim122> will check that thx
[01:22] <Tekno> hello. I installed openbox and now I don
[01:22] <Tekno> t have any soudn at all
[01:22] <Tekno> sound
[01:23] <hspaans> norcim122: you're running a firewall somewhere or changed other settings?
[01:23] <nak> dexi: Being as you're using KDE, you would find kdm more fitting for your needs. There isn't a substancial difference, apart from the number and sorts of packages you require; with GDM you need gnome/gtk libraries, with kdm you need k/qt libraries, which you probably already possess.
[01:24] <nak> dexi: With kubuntu-desktop, you already have kdm.
[01:24] <Hashishanin> If you've just run a program in linux and you want to know the exit status what can you type?
[01:24] <hspaans> norcim122: 576 is minimum MTU size is pMTU-discovery for example is working correctly
[01:24] <norcim122> hspaans: yes firestarter... it  "fails" to start at boot time but I have on startup filesso it starts anyway
[01:24] <sebastian> how do i mount my usbdrive? when i insert the usb it says unable to mount, i need to be super user.
[01:24] <Hashishanin> in the command line
[01:25] <dexi> nak: i have gnome already, switching to KDE
[01:25] <norcim122> hspaans: my download is 2000kbps with 576 and 6800kbps with 1500 MTU... dont know why but I need it to be perm.
[01:25] <sebastian> how do i mount my usbdrive? when i insert the usb it says unable to mount, i need to be super user.
[01:26] <norcim122> hspaans: funny that interfaces file is mostly blank considering it should have all my setting
[01:26] <Johnramb00> Hi guys
[01:26] <Tekno> hello. I installed openbox and now I dont have any sound at all ? and user is in audio group. what could be wrong ?
[01:26] <dexi> crap the window disappeared!
[01:26] <hspaans> norcim122: you're blocking icmp?
[01:26] <nak> dexi: Then use kdm.
[01:26] <sebastian> how do i mount my usbdrive? when i insert the usb it says unable to mount, i need to be super user.
[01:26] <vostro1510> sebastian
[01:26] <norcim122> sebastian  use sudo mount ....
[01:26] <vostro1510> what user are you using?
[01:26] <Johnramb00> is it possible to install ubuntu on my SD card via my camera?
[01:26] <dexi> nak: lol i might have accidentally closed it, in which case i'd assume it would stick with my default, right? if not... how do i designate one?
[01:26] <norcim122> hspaans: I dont know how to i check
[01:26] <Johnramb00> Oh..sorry.
[01:27] <Y-Town> I am trying to get my windows xp box to see the share on linux.  Windows sees the linux share but will not access it because of proper permissions I believe.  Anyone able to help starigten it out?
[01:27] <Johnramb00> I mean: to prepare a "boot sd card"?
[01:27] <IdleOne> how do I restart samba?
[01:27] <nak> dexi: `dpkg-reconfigure kdm' I believe.
[01:27] <vostro1510> Idleone
[01:28] <sebastian> norcim122: i did sudo mount /dev/sdb1
[01:28] <vostro1510> sudo /etc/init.d/samba restart
[01:28] <floryn90> hello
[01:28] <sebastian> norcim122: but it dont work
[01:28] <Gnea> Johnramb00: no, you'd need to do it from a computer. a camera can't do that, although it would probably make a nice video. :)
[01:28] <nak> IdleOne: I've never used samba, but I expect that you can do it via `/etc/init.d/samba restart'
[01:28] <vostro1510> sebastian
[01:28] <vostro1510> what user are youusing
[01:28] <vostro1510> ?
[01:28] <vostro1510> it should not be a problem in default user.
[01:28] <vostro1510> I am a newbie user
[01:28] <hspaans> norcim122: check firestarter? most network issues come for users running firewalls without understanding it
[01:28] <vostro1510> And I just put my pendrive and use it.
[01:28] <nak> vostro1510: Please refrain from using `\n' where unneccessary.
[01:28] <dexi> nak: its locked by another process.... but the window is gone! lol
[01:28] <Johnramb00> Gnea: Isn't it possible to switch in the cable and start from usb-device? I need USB for my eee pc :(
[01:29] <norcim122> sebastian  use sudo mkdir /media/usbdrive     then    sudo mount /dev/sdb1 /media/usbdrive
[01:29] <vostro1510> sorry nak?
[01:29] <sebastian> vostro1510: im the onlly user
[01:29] <norcim122> hspaans: no firestarter is not blocking
[01:29] <nak> dexi: That tells me very little, being as I don't know whats locked/gone.
[01:29] <natbet> anyone know how to make ubuntu 8.10 connect to a bluetooth device with a fixed pin?
[01:29] <Gnea> Johnramb00: #ubuntu-eeepc would know better
[01:29] <dexi> nak: debconf: DbDriver "config": /var/cache/debconf/config.dat is locked by another process: Resource temporarily unavailable
[01:29] <IdleOne> thank you nak
[01:29] <Johnramb00> Ah! Thank you Gnea!
[01:30] <hspaans> norcim122: its just eth0 behind a DSL/Cable-router?
[01:30] <Y-Town>  I am trying to get my windows xp box to see the share on linux.  Windows sees the linux share but will not access it because of proper permissions I believe.  Anyone able to help starigten it out?
[01:30] <norcim122> hspaans: firestarter has the most basic interface . I dont see how i can get that wrong
[01:30] <norcim122> hspaans: no router  just cable
[01:30] <dexi> nak: im just going to restart
[01:30] <nak> dexi: Why are you using debconf?
[01:30] <hspaans> norcim122: meaning?
[01:31] <norcim122> hspaans: do you have alot in your  interfaces file?
[01:31] <dexi> nak: i did the thing you told me "dpkg-reconfigure kdm"
[01:31] <dexi> and thats what i got
[01:31] <hspaans> norcim122: no, because its not needed
[01:31] <nak> dexi: What do you hope to solve by restarting?
[01:31] <norcim122> hspaans:  i have direct connection to cable modem
[01:31] <yoyit2> how do you install gpartition?? its NOT WORKING for me :(
[01:31] <yoyit2> **Gparted
[01:31] <nak> dexi: Have you tried killing the process?
[01:31] <maco> yoyit2: using the right name. it's called gparted
[01:31] <maco> yoyit2: with the lowercase g
[01:31] <nak> yoyit2: Please don't shout.
[01:32] <jzitt> :logs another two hours wasted in trying to get something working in Linux that's easy everywhere else *sigh*
[01:32] <nak> yoyit2: `sudo apt-get install gparted'.
[01:32] <Gnea> yoyit2: sudo apt-get install gparted
[01:32] <maco> nak: what shouting?
[01:32] <hspaans> norcim122: skip the firewall thingie and reboot to make sure you're machine is clean
[01:32] <yoyit2> maco: yeah i kinda got that, hence the **
[01:32] <dexi> nak: well i had the window after doing apt-get install kubuntu-desktop asking me to choose gdm or kdm, and i never chose, and now i dont see the window anymore, so i assume the process that it had locked it still locked, and by restarting it will not be locked anymore
[01:32] <norcim122> yoyit2: did you try to use add/remove to reinstall?
[01:32] <sebastian> norcim122: thx, but i had to force mount it, but it workes, thx a lot
[01:32] <maco> yoyit2: lowercase though, not capital G. the terminal is case-sensitive
[01:32] <Gnea> nak: there's a difference between just a few words and an entire sentence being capitalised.
[01:33] <jensor> I'm haveing trouble with fle sharing. using the file browser I see my xp box listed, but when I try s]
[01:33] <norcim122> hspaans: I will but with firewall i notice alot of blocked atempted connections... will i be protected?
[01:33] <Y-Town> anyone know of a good HOWTO for setting up a linux and windows network sharing?
[01:33] <Gnea> !ics | Y-Town
[01:33] <nak> dexi: So, why don't you just kill the process?
[01:33] <hspaans> norcim122: post some of those blockings to pastebin
[01:33] <norcim122> who do i do that
[01:34] <Gnea> !pastebin
[01:34] <hspaans> norcim122: if you'e not running some wierd service there will be no problem
[01:34] <Y-Town> Gnea: looking to share files not internet connection
[01:34] <norcim122> hspaans: for example i noticed an attempt to connect to ssh one time
[01:35] <norcim122> and to auth
[01:35] <Gnea> Y-Town: aaah
[01:35] <norcim122> service
[01:35] <Gnea> !samba | Y-Town
[01:35] <jensor>  I'm haveing trouble with fle sharing. using the file browser I see my xp box listed, but when I try see the files I get a popup window saying "Couldn't display  "smb://home/jj-nu"   The location is not a folder"
[01:35] <hspaans> norcim122: yes so? that is Internet background noise
[01:35] <Tekno> hello. I installed openbox and now I dont have any sound at all ? and user is in audio group. what could be wrong ?
[01:35] <norcim122> ok
[01:36] <Gnea> norcim122: one time isn't anything to worry about, it's when it turns into continuous, multiple attempts... that's a problem.
[01:36] <eseven73> Tekno>> do sounds work ok if you use Gnome?
[01:36] <Tekno> i dont have gnome
[01:36] <norcim122> hspaans:  how will i know without a firewall to tell me?
[01:36] <yoyit2> ok, and now every time i try to uninstall anything, add/remove just freezes!
[01:36] <Y-Town> Gnea: thanx i will work with that
[01:36] <yoyit2> anyone know how to fix that?
[01:36] <Tekno> eseven73: i have openbox and lxde
[01:37] <hspaans> norcim122: and your question is?
[01:37] <Gnea> Y-Town: #samba is also a very good resource
[01:37] <eseven73> Tekno>> try #openbox
[01:37] <Gnea> Tekno: perhaps pulseaudio isn't setup correctly
[01:37] <norcim122> hspaans: you say dont worry but without the firewall giving me warning i would now know
[01:37] <norcim122> hspaans: so you have no firewall running?
[01:37] <Tekno> Gnea: i didnt have pulseaudio before
[01:38] <Gnea> Tekno: do you have it now?
[01:38] <Tekno> eseven73: where is that channel ?
[01:38] <Tekno> Gnea: no
[01:38] <yoyit2> does anyone know how to get add/remove to stop freezing when i try to uninstall??
[01:38] <Gnea> Tekno: what apps aren't giving sound?
[01:38] <Y-Town> Gnea: I can see the ubuntu system on the win xp box just cant access it.  Any idea of where im needing to fix it at?
[01:38] <Tekno> Gnea: none
[01:38] <geeksquad> i have a dell xps m1530 and in totem it wont play movies the error is "unable to read from resource
[01:38] <zErOaCid> hi, how do i change the dark textbox background in firebox3 when I'm using a dark theme?
[01:38] <eseven73> ummm #openbox has 3 people lol, scratch that Tekno
[01:38] <Gnea> Tekno: what apps did give sound?
[01:38] <hspaans> norcim122: when they warn you, but you don't do anything with it then its pointless
[01:39] <vostro1510> Well
[01:39] <vostro1510> Have to go
[01:39] <Tekno> Gnea: every application
[01:39] <Gnea> Y-Town: yeah, install SWAT and configure some shares and users
[01:39] <vostro1510> You channel is great
[01:39] <Gnea> Tekno: that's too vague, you'll need to be more specific, please.
[01:39] <Y-Town> gnea  thanks
[01:39] <hspaans> norcim122: host firewalls? no
[01:39] <vostro1510> Friendly people. Just great and it is a signal that explains why Ubuntu is growing up.
[01:39] <vostro1510> Tks for your attention.
[01:40] <geeksquad>   please check my last post i am desprate to watch movies
[01:40] <Tekno> Gnea: now none of the application give sound, before i was using lxde and audio worked with every app
[01:40] <eseven73> vostro1510>> yep its not the OS, its the community that makes Ubuntu great, theres tons of OS's out there that are almost identical to Ubuntu, but they dont have the community.
[01:40] <Gnea> Tekno: never used lxde
[01:40] <Tekno> and i have cranked volume up
[01:40] <geeksquad> Tekno then get rid of it
[01:40] <Gnea> Tekno: what sound-related apps are you trying to use?
[01:40] <Tekno> i dont want to get rid of openbox, this is great
[01:40] <yoyit2> does anyone know how to successfully uninstall on add/remove?
[01:41] <Tekno> Gnea: vlc, youtube etc
[01:41] <norcim122> hspaans: I just like to know "most" of what is going on thats all... If I get warning I can just turn off the modem.
[01:41] <Gnea> Tekno: I'm not aware of a sound app called 'etc'
[01:41] <Gnea> and youtube is not an app, it is a website.
[01:41] <Tekno> Gnea: well i dont have application which gives sound
[01:41] <Tekno> every of them are broken
[01:42] <Tekno> insted of sound i get nothing
[01:42] <Gnea> Tekno: can you still open a terminal?
[01:42] <yoyit2> does ANYONE know how to get add/remove to uninstall?
[01:42] <norcim122> hspaans: what do use for protection? Do you install and just let it be?
[01:42] <Tekno> Gnea: yes
[01:42] <hspaans> norcim122: is you don't have any services publicly (or restricted to localhost) running then its pointless. read this is default install of ubuntu
[01:42] <Gnea> Tekno: and are the speakers builtin or plugged in?
[01:42] <Tekno> builtin
[01:42] <Gnea> laptop?
[01:42] <Tekno> yes
[01:42] <Tekno> eeepc 900
[01:43] <Gnea> which is handled by the #ubuntu-eeepc channel
[01:43] <norcim122> hspaans: ok
[01:43] <Tekno> I have reinstalled alsa related packages
[01:43] <lahori> i need help, as soon as i plug a earphones in the sound card, i can't hear anything -nothing at all-, it works fine otherwise, i also tried it with windows and it works, just in ubuntu it is giving the problem
[01:43] <geeksquad> yoyit2:click on the aplications check box again
[01:43] <Gnea> Tekno: are you able to run this command:  gnome-control-center
[01:43] <aleksN^> I'm currently using ubuntu 7.04. When I'm trying to update 'sudo update-manager -d', this happens http://paste.ubuntu.com/97970/ . Someone got any advice?
[01:43] <Tekno> bash: gnome-control-center: command not found
[01:43] <lahori> i tried half a dozen of different earphones
[01:43] <mrwes> lahori try installing gnome alsa mixer
[01:43] <yoyit2> geeksquad: yeah, i know, but mine just freezes for hours
[01:44] <lahori> mrwes: that's the one i have
[01:44] <yoyit2> geeksquad: any ideas??
[01:44] <mrwes> lahori and the sliders are turned up on it?
[01:44] <Gnea> aleksN^: can you do this:  sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade
[01:44] <geeksquad> u know the little check box
[01:44] <Tekno> * Setting up ALSA...                                                                                [ OK ]
[01:44] <norcim122> hspaans:  from the link you gave me. can I just copy paste all the example to my file? or do I need to change anything for eth0?
[01:44] <eseven73> !u | geeksquad
[01:44] <lahori> mrwes: every single slider, up on top!
[01:44] <Gnea> Tekno: yeah, you'll need to ask in #ubuntu-eeepc
[01:44] <aleksN^> Gnea; no, thats why I want to update ^^
[01:45] <Squideshi> Can someone help me understand how video drivers work in Ubuntu 8.10?
[01:45] <raylu> Squideshi: heh. i don't think anyone does :P
[01:45] <Gnea> aleksN^: you can't open a terminal?
[01:45] <rejie> 大家好，请问有没有说中文的！
[01:45] <raylu> !zh | rejie
[01:45] <eseven73> !cn
[01:45] <aleksN^> Gnea; nevermind, that dist-upgrade worked ^^
[01:46] <aleksN^> Running as we speak
[01:46] <hspaans> norcim122: I didn't gave you a link
[01:46] <geeksquad> use sudo apt-get remove (packages) in a terminal
[01:46] <Gnea> aleksN^: k, when it's done, try to run the update-manager again and see if the problem persists
[01:46] <aleksN^> Will do =)
[01:46] <Squideshi> raylu: I just mean the basics--like how the packages are named and how to tell which driver is being used by looking at Xorg.0.log.
[01:46] <mrwes> lahori that's weird....have you goggle it?
[01:46] <Dexi> Ok i managed to get KDE up. Its snazzy.
[01:46] <Dexi> My mouse sensitivity is through the roof,
[01:46] <norcim122> hspaans: this one http://www.debianhelp.co.uk/mtu.htm
[01:47] <raylu> Squideshi: you can tell which driver is being used by looking at /etc/X11/xorg.conf. if you happen to know the names of the modules, you can look for them in the log to see if they're loaded
[01:47] <lahori> mrwes: not yet, not sure what to search for
[01:47] <norcim122> hspaans: oh never mind
[01:47] <raylu> Squideshi: the nvidia packages are named nvidia-glx-### for the corresponding nvidia build
[01:47] <canthus13> How do you get the size of a single directory and it's contents from the command line?
[01:47] <Squideshi> raylu: No driver is specified in xorg.conf. It's my understanding that xorg now atodetects.
[01:47] <raylu> Squideshi: and the nvidia kernel module package has a similar name. though there is a meta package for both nvidia and ati drivers that depends on the latest one
[01:47] <norcim122> hspaans: where are the network defaults located?
[01:47] <ziggyH> hi all
[01:48] <ziggyH> back again =(
[01:48] <raylu> Squideshi: oh, if you have no xorg.conf, X will use the free driver
[01:48] <geeksquad>  please help me guys my laptop will not play dvds
[01:48] <hspaans> norcim122: in vmlinuz
[01:48] <geeksquad> i have the drivers
[01:48] <LtL> canthus13: du -h dir/
[01:48] <hspaans> norcim122: read kernel
[01:48] <norcim122> hspaans: should i try to edit that?
[01:48] <canthus13> LtL: Thanks.
[01:48] <Gnea> !dvd | geeksquad
[01:49] <norcim122> hspaans:  to change mtu
[01:49] <hspaans> norcim122: did you try the reboot without the firewall stuff?
[01:49] <yoyit2> does anyone know how to fix virtual box with message "callee RC:   NS_ERROR_FACTORY_NOT_REGISTERED  (0x80040154)
[01:49] <onetinsoldier> Squideshi: grep drivers /var/log/Xorg.0.log to see the video driver all alone....   glxinfo | grep direct    .....to see if you have direct rending infrastructure(dri) enabled
[01:51] <norcim122> hspaans: I will uninstall firewall and try
[01:51] <Gnea> yoyit2: you may wish to present your problem to the #vbox channel for more detailed help
[01:51] <Tekno> does anyone have time to help in problem related to sound :?
[01:52] <Gnea> Tekno: I *told* you, you need to ask in #ubuntu-eeepc, your problem is too EEEpc specific
[01:52] <Tekno> no its not
[01:52] <Gnea> yes, it is.
[01:52] <Tekno> its general problem
[01:52] <Cameron`> hi, my sound stops working after some time.  A reboot fixes it, but that's really annoying.  Is there any way to restart the sound system ?
[01:52] <Tekno> not eeepc hardware related
[01:53] <Gnea> there's a version of ubuntu for the eeepc, that's the version you should be using.
[01:53] <Tekno> Gnea: Then i dont get support from there
[01:53] <Gnea> Tekno: sometimes they are slow, you need to be patient.
[01:54] <Squideshi> onetinsoldier: I've looked through the log, but none of the package names seem to appear in the file. How do you match the driver name with the package name?
[01:54] <yoyit2> how do i expand the file "root.disk" to more then 8.4GBs??
[01:54] <Cameron`> hi, my sound stops working after some time.  A reboot fixes it, but that's really annoying.  Is there any way to restart the sound system ?
[01:54] <onetinsoldier> Squideshi: what did you get from --> grep drivers /var/log/Xorg.0.log   ?
[01:54] <Gnea> !vbox | yoyit2
[01:54] <hspaans> Cameron`: you're using 8.10?
[01:55] <Cameron`> hspaans: yep
[01:55] <yoyit2> ubottu: Gnea: k i installed ubuntu thru vista, then deleted vista, and now i only have 8.4GBs on root.disk... how do i make it bigger?
[01:56] <docmur> I installed libdvdcss2 and ubuntu-restricted-extra but when I right click the dvd and ask it to play in movie player, totem hangs and causes my cpu to run like 100% but I have to force quit totem
[01:56] <Gnea> yoyit2: what is root.disk? /?
[01:56] <hspaans> Cameron`: most likely pulseaudio goes fubar, restarting the application (like totem or rhythmbox) after say 30 seconds and it should work again
[01:56] <Squideshi> onetinsoldier: http://pastebin.com/d782f3014
[01:57] <yoyit2> its in host/ubuntu/disks
[01:57] <yoyit2> Gnea: its in host/ubuntu/disks
[01:57] <docmur> any ideas
[01:57] <Dante123> hi, my kids was playing game under wine....and screwed up the screen.  Now lcd monitor says input not supported....how can I change/fix the resolution??
[01:57] <Treehugger> how do you install ATI drivers using terminal?
[01:57] <Gnea> yoyit2: so, by 'installed thru vista', you mean you used wubi?
[01:57] <Cameron`> hspaans: its totem that I am using.  I'll try waiting a minute - but I am sure I have tried that before
[01:57] <yoyit2> Gnea: sure
[01:58] <Roger_> Dantel123, relog
[01:58] <Dante123> rebooting and going into recovery console gets me screen back, but nvidia graphics driver is not running...and upon reboot back to same input not supported error
[01:58] <Roger_> wine does that to me to sometimes
[01:58] <hspaans> Cameron`: it works is most cases, hopefully its fixed in 9.04 or you need to go back to 8.04 :(
[01:58] <Gnea> yoyit2: not a good move. when you install via wubi, you're installing to a filesystem contained within a file on vista's filesystem. by getting rid of vista, you have now trapped your ubuntu installation.
[01:58] <Dante123> Roger_ relog....did that ....no help
[01:59] <Roger_> sorry then
[01:59] <Cameron`> hspaans: I wasn't even running totem before it happened.. but when I start totem it has no sound.  if I run totem when I first boot, it works fine, but I then close totem, surf the web or do some work for a while, then totem has no sound
[01:59] <Dante123> get same error
[01:59] <Dante123> anyone???
[01:59] <onetinsoldier> Squideshi: ok, this is how i would go about finding out, since, as you said, the filenames don't exactly match package names...   locate intel_drv.so && dpkg -S /usr/lib/xorg/modules/drivers/intel_drv.so -->xserver-xorg-video-intel
[01:59] <yoyit2> Gnea: but is there now ANY way to expand it to the entire hdd, rather then just 8.4GBs??
[01:59] <Jack_Sparrow> Dante123, What nvidia card
[01:59] <Gnea> yoyit2: if vista was installed, sure
[01:59] <hspaans> Cameron`: when you do `id -a` do you see a group called audio?
[02:00] <Dante123> 7300 gs
[02:00] <Cameron> nope
[02:00] <Treehugger> how do you install ATI drivers?
[02:00] <Cameron> hspaans: nope
[02:00] <Jack_Sparrow> do you get low res in the desktop
[02:00] <Dante123> everything worked fine...until the kid was playing that game
[02:00] <Gnea> yoyit2: if you've got an ubuntu cd, you can install that
[02:00] <hspaans> Cameron: may yourself member of that group and login again
[02:00] <hspaans> Cameron: s/may/make/
[02:00] <Jack_Sparrow> Dante123, Playig a game under wine..
[02:01] <yoyit2> Gnea: ok, but would i have to REINSTALL ubuntu? or could i just edit the file "root.disk"??
[02:01] <Gnea> Jack_Sparrow: his system is now barfing at graphics initialization on bootup of ubuntu.
[02:01] <Jack_Sparrow> Gnea, thanks
[02:01] <Dante123> Jack_Sparrow yes, he was playing game...and I dont know what he did...but the screen went black....I think it is a resolution thing...because all is fine in recover mode....BUT that means nvidia driver not running.....
[02:01] <hspaans> Cameron: you know how to make yourself member of a group?
[02:01] <Gnea> yoyit2: yeah, reinstall, from the ground-up.
[02:02] <Cameron> hspaans: yeah
[02:02] <onetinsoldier> Treehugger: i can probably help you out. fist you should get a fully filled out /etc/x11/xorg.conf file if you don't have one. pastebin it if you want me to take a look at it. instructions on how to make a full xorg.conf file are here ---> http://pastebin.com/m4455f5b4
[02:02] <yoyit2> Gnea: friggen retarded!!
[02:02] <onetinsoldier> s/fist/sirst
[02:02] <Jack_Sparrow> Dante123, care to try a few things with me
[02:02] <Cameron> hspaans: the strange thing is if I cat /etc/group it shows my username
[02:02] <Gnea> yoyit2: i know, vista surely is.
[02:02] <Dante123> no prob.  Jack_Sparrow
[02:02] <Cameron> hspaans: the strange thing is if I cat /etc/group it shows my username in the audio group
[02:02] <hspaans> Cameron: where?
[02:02] <hspaans> Cameron: but not when you do id -a?
[02:03] <aleksN^> Gnea; Still got the same problem
[02:03] <Cameron> hspaans: nope
[02:03] <iShock> Hi cameron
[02:03] <yoyit2> Gnea: is there any way to Copy/paste all the drivers and programs from the ubuntu im using now, to the one i reinstall?
[02:03] <hspaans> Cameron: in a terminal btw
[02:03] <Cameron> yeah
[02:03] <Jack_Sparrow> Dante123, can you get to a terminal
[02:03] <iShock> Cameron: Hi dere
[02:03] <Dante123> Jack_Sparrow do you think I should disable nivida driver....then redo it
[02:03] <Cameron> hspaans: yeah - I'm a long time linux user :)
[02:03] <Gnea> yoyit2: i'm not sure... you'd have to load up the livecd and see if it finds it or not
[02:03] <Dante123> I am booted into recover mode right now Jack_Sparrow
[02:03] <Jack_Sparrow> Dante123, fine
[02:03] <Jack_Sparrow> Dante123, lets try sudo nvidia-xconfig
[02:04] <yoyit2> Gnea: arg!
[02:04] <hspaans> Cameron: np, I'm going to sleep btw. Its getting late in my timezone
[02:04] <Jack_Sparrow> yoyit2, Please settle down
[02:04] <Cameron> hspaans: no worries.. thanks for the hints
[02:04] <Gnea> aleksN^: something is wrong then... you said you're running 7.04? or was that a typo?
[02:04] <docmur> I installed libdvdcss2 and ubuntu-restricted-extra but when I right click the dvd and ask it to play in movie player, totem hangs and causes my cpu to run like 100% but I have to force quit totem
[02:04] <aleksN^> 7.04 yes ^^
[02:04] <docmur> any ideas
[02:04] <Dante123> Jack_Sparrow I get validation error
[02:04] <aleksN^> Thats why I want to update
[02:04] <yoyit2> Gnea:  there arnt any ways of using an ubuntu program to do it? or a live vista disc?
[02:05] <Jack_Sparrow> Dante123, that is actually helpful to know
[02:05] <t_> does anyone know how to make your virtual box read USB devices?
[02:05] <Jack_Sparrow> Dante123, I use the nvidia driver prior to -77
[02:05] <Gnea> yoyit2: realistically speaking, at this conjuncture, your only recourse is to backup any important file you have on your ubuntu installation to a USB drive or CD, then just do a flat-out reinstall of ubuntu from CD or DVD.
[02:06] <yoyit2> Jack_Sparrow: ok, your not having your entire computer REINSTALLED EVERY 2 WEEKS WITH VISTA PROBLEM, THEN GET UBUNTU TO WORK ONLY TO FIND YOU HAVE TO REINSTALL AGAIN!!
[02:06] <Dante123> t_ what version of vbox are u running???
[02:06] <Gnea> !caps | yoyit2
[02:06] <t_> I gues it would be the lates
[02:06] <t_> since I just got it last week
[02:06] <t_> latest
[02:06] <eseven73> having a meltdown wont help any
[02:06] <docmur> it's a better idea to not use windows at all
[02:06] <docmur> Windows is singlehandedly the worst invention of all time
[02:06] <t_> its a better idea to experiemnt
[02:07] <t_> you should't be so blindsighted
[02:07] <Gnea> aleksN^: well, you have an older installation, so that makes things difficult, but it might still be possible to upgrade...
[02:07] <Cameron> hspaans: I just logged out and in again - it now shows that I am in the audio group, however still no sound
[02:07] <Gnea> aleksN^: can you run synaptic?
[02:07] <aleksN^> ..
[02:07] <Jack_Sparrow> Dante123, have you tried nvidia-settings
[02:07] <aleksN^> command ?
[02:07] <Gnea> aleksN^: synaptic
[02:08] <Gr34t3st> Can someone guide me through setting up Dial-up on Ubuntu?
[02:08] <aleksN^> Cannot open display
[02:08] <aleksN^> it says
[02:08] <Gnea> !dialup | Gr34t3st
[02:08] <t_> Does anyone know how to mount usb devices on a virtual box?
[02:08] <Gnea> aleksN^: i see... are you trying to run this as the same user that you're logged in as?
[02:09] <t_> it's simply not responding
[02:09] <Cameron> anoyone know how to restart the audio system on ubuntu 8.10 ?
[02:09] <eseven73> t_>> are you using the ose version?
[02:09] <aleksN^> Gnea; yea
[02:09] <t_> whats the ose?
[02:09] <Jack_Sparrow> !coc > yoyit2
[02:09] <Chug> hi all
[02:09] <Gnea> Cameron: /etc/init.d/pulseaudio restart
[02:09] <iShock> Cameron: Ping
[02:09] <Gnea> Cameron: sorry, sudo /etc/init.d/pulseaudio restart
[02:09] <t_> eseven
[02:09] <eseven73> opensource
[02:09] <jake123> how do you use synaptic to install emerald?
[02:09] <Cameron> Gnea: that command runs, doesn't output anything, and completes instantly
[02:10] <t_> Virtual Box is open source. Are you trying to tell me that there is one that you have to pay?
[02:10] <Gnea> jake123: do a search in it for 'emerald'
[02:10] <eseven73> t_>> look in synaptic for 'virtualbox-ose' if you have that, you're gonna need to get the NON free version from the website
[02:10] <Cameron> Gnea:  time sudo /etc/init.d/pulseaudio restart : real	0m0.006s user	0m0.000s sys	0m0.004s
[02:10] <jake123> gnea, im new to ubuntu, whats synaptic :(
[02:10] <Gnea> Cameron: sudo /etc/init.d/alsa-utils restart
[02:10] <Cameron> Gnea:  and it doesn't seem to make audio work again
[02:10] <t_> I was under the impression that this was all free
[02:10] <jake123> gnea: found it
[02:10] <Gr34t3st> Uhh.. I tried setting up dial-up and I think I have the location of my modem wrong. I used scanModem and I got a bunch of errors
[02:10] <Gnea> !synaptic | jake123
[02:10] <t_> I'm rater suspicious of your statements
[02:10] <Jack_Sparrow> !dialup
[02:11] <Chicano> how do i add another irc?
[02:11] <eseven73> t_>> 98% of linux software is free.....but Virtualbox has 2 versions!
[02:11] <Cameron> Gnea: alsa-utils took some time to run, and seemed to restart.  but my sound still doesn't work
[02:11] <exodus_ms> Chicano: what client are you using
[02:11] <t_> I see
[02:11] <droopsta915> why wont my flashdrive unmount. It stays on the desktoip
[02:11] <droopsta915> desktop, sorry
[02:11] <eseven73> t_>> yeah, the free OSE does not support USB :(
[02:11] <Gnea> !sound | Cameron
[02:11] <t_> All I need is for my virtual box to interface with my USB storage devices
[02:11] <onetinsoldier> eseven73: do you have to purchase the non-free version? or is it just a non-free license?
[02:12] <eseven73> t_>> good news, the one on the site is free, too, but its free as in beer
[02:12] <Gnea> Cameron: try that troubleshooting guide out - if it still doesn't work, let us know
[02:12] <eseven73> no yo udont have to buy it onetinsoldier
[02:12] <t_> I don't follow
[02:12] <eseven73> theres two kinds of free
[02:12] <onetinsoldier> eseven73: roger that
[02:12] <Jack_Sparrow> onetinsoldier, It just means that it is not open source
[02:12] <Chicano> using xchat
[02:12] <Gnea> free speech, and free beer.
[02:12] <jensor>  I'm having trouble with file sharing. Using the file browser I see my xp box listed, but when I try see the files I get a popup window saying "Couldn't display  "smb://home/jj-nu"   The location is not a folder"
[02:12] <Cameron> Gnea: sound was working - I would play vids, use flash etc.. then after some time it stops, and the only way to fix it is to reboot
[02:12] <eseven73> free as in free beer, and free as in speech (really really free)
[02:12] <aleksN^> Gnea; so there is no hope for updating?
[02:13] <Gnea> aleksN^: sec, still checking something
[02:13] <eseven73> t_>> just go get the one from virtualbox's site, and you'll be good to go
[02:13] <hissing_sunhat> I recently updated to 8.10 from 8.04 using the update manager. The splash screen and files needed to boot load no problem, but I never get to the login screen. Instead, my screen turns black. I can't get a terminal with cntrl-alt-F1 and the same thing happens in recovery mode. I checked my xorg.conf and there doesn't seem to be anything wrong with it. Passing boot options vga=771 noapic nolapic does not help. Can someone
[02:13] <hissing_sunhat> please help me?
[02:13] <Gnea> !upgrade | aleksN^
[02:13] <mn> What is the best browser (objectively)?
[02:13] <t_> eseven73>> Is this an American saying? o.O
[02:13] <Cameron> Gnea: all of the sound related help pages on the ubuntu site were related to sound not working at all
[02:13] <Gnea> aleksN^: check out the instructions for ubuntu server
[02:13] <Jack_Sparrow> !polls
[02:13] <aleksN^> Will do
[02:13] <Gnea> aleksN^: you *should* be able to replicate it
[02:13] <eseven73> t_>> what? free speech?
[02:13] <Gr34t3st> Omg.. Ubuntu Sucks. I can't even set up dial-up internet without having trouble.. Even windows ME lets me do it with ease...

[02:14] <t_> No, that whole phrase
[02:14] <eseven73> dont compare windows to windows
[02:14] <Chicano> using xchat
[02:14] <eseven73> oops windows to linux
[02:14] <t_> Wait, are you talking to me through 1 to 1, or whole room?
[02:14] <t_> I'm not familiar with this IRC
[02:14] <docmur> there is no compairson, windows was forged in Hell
[02:14] <docmur> lol

[02:16] <t_> So every time I want personal red letter text, I must type their name prior?
[02:16] <Chicano> bien y tu
[02:16] <t_> Is there a way to set this as a sticky?
[02:16] <maco> t_: its not a private message. its just like when you say "hey joe..."  Using the file browser I see my xp box listed, but when I try see the files I get a popup window saying "Couldn't display  "smb://home/jj-nu"   The location is not a folder"

[02:26] <t_> and it was red
[02:26] <Sorcererbob> Fresh install of 64bit Ubuntu. Running the proprietry nvidia drivers (177) with Twinview enabled on two identical monitors. I have a problem with the desktop cube - if I use the mouse to rotate the next screen I can see on either side the top and bottom bars (which are situated on the left screen) as being on the right screen, but I can never actually go to that desktop. It slides to the sides. I want the two screens to be
[02:26] <Sorcererbob>  able to rotate upon only their own axis - so that the right hand screen never shows the top and bottom bars. Can I achieve this by setting the screens up as separate X sessions, or is there a better fix?
[02:26] <jensor>  I'm having trouble with file sharing. Using the file browser I see my xp box listed, but when I try see the files I get a popup window saying "Couldn't display  "smb://home/jj-nu"   The location is not a folder"  Now jj-nu is the name of my xp box which is alredy setup to share My Documents folder among others.
[02:27] <Gnea> t_: that's a setting on your irc client, look it up.
[02:27] <stinger05> can wine run all windows games on linux ?
[02:27] <eseven73> no
[02:27] <Sorcererbob> stinger05, no
[02:27] <Gnea> stinger05: many, but not all.
[02:28] <aleksN^> Gnea; I've changed the sources.list, runned apt-get update (worked), then 'sudo aptitude install update-manager-core' and 'sudo do-release-upgrade'. But still I'm not able to use
[02:28] <stinger05> Gnea: how about the ones that run, do they run smoothly or choppy ?
[02:28] <aleksN^> update-manager -d
[02:28] <exodus_ms> t_: are you using xchat?
[02:28] <t_> exodus_ms, yes
[02:28] <Gnea> aleksN^: did it enable you to upgrade to the next ubuntu release?
[02:29] <exodus_ms> please take a look here, it will answer alot of your questions --> http://www.eglug.org/book/export/html/564
[02:29] <Gnea> stinger05: it depends on the game and your hardware.
[02:29] <Kelen> How to send files by buletooth in command?
[02:29] <Gnea> !wine | stinger05
[02:29] <aleksN^> What you mean?
[02:29] <t_> exodus_ms, special orders are relatively new to me
[02:29] <Kelen> is there any idea for this question?
[02:29] <Gnea> !bluetooth | Kelen
[02:29] <exodus_ms> t_: in case you missed the previous post, try this --> http://www.eglug.org/book/export/html/564
[02:30] <t_> thank you
[02:30] <Gnea> aleksN^: when you finished running the do-release-upgrade, did it ask you to rebot?
[02:30] <exodus_ms> t_: and agian, look here --> http://tldp.org/HOWTO/IRC/
[02:30] <stinger05> Gnea: how about Cedega? i heard it can run most games also.
[02:30] <Gnea> aleksN^: *reboot
[02:30] <Sorcererbob> ok, I'm going to try separate X sessions and hope it doesn't die again. I'll report back soon
[02:30] <Gnea> !cedega | stinger05
[02:31] <Kelen> ubottu: dude, i got buletooth worked. just need a way to send file with command..
[02:31] <Roger_> Kelen ubottu is a bot program running for helping ppl lol, not a real person
[02:32] <aleksN^> Gnea; no it didnt, it said 100% working, and then I wasn't able to do anything, so I restarted putty ^^.
[02:32] <exodus_ms> Kelen: don't worry about it man, happens to a lot of folks :)
[02:32] <aleksN^> and now it says 0%
[02:32] <Gnea> aleksN^: why are you using putty?
[02:32] <Kelen> Roger_: So. is there any idea for this question?
[02:33] <aleksN^> Cause it is in my basement
[02:33] <Roger_> would be cool if they added and actual AI bot
[02:33] <aleksN^> Using it as a server
[02:33] <aleksN^> thats why I havent updated it earlier
[02:33] <hissing_sunhat> anyone willing to take a crack at this problem i have?
[02:33] <Gnea> aleksN^: okay, what is the result of this command:  lsb_release -r
[02:33] <hissing_sunhat> i updated to ibex
[02:33] <hissing_sunhat> and i cant get to the login screen
[02:34] <xm89> after installing some packages xorg stop to work,how to fix it?
[02:34] <eseven73> !enter | hissing_sunhat
[02:34] <aleksN^> 7.04
[02:34] <Jack_Sparrow> hissing_sunhat, does ctrl-alt-F1 bring you to text mode
[02:34] <hissing_sunhat> no i tried that
[02:34] <Jack_Sparrow> !feisty
[02:34] <Gnea> aleksN^: yeah, try rebooting and see if it actually upgraded or not
[02:35] <aleksN^> Okey
[02:35] <Gnea> !eol
[02:35] <Jack_Sparrow> hissing_sunhat, if you cant get into recovery mode and ctrlaltF1 wont bring up a term, I would boot a live cd and save my /home
[02:35] <hissing_sunhat> hm ok
[02:36] <gaintsura> anyone know if 8.04 will run on a P1 ?
[02:36] <hissing_sunhat> was trying to avoid that, but thanks for your help
[02:36] <onetinsoldier> xm89: you can try following these instructions if you like 'How to reset your xorg.conf ' --> http://pastebin.com/m4455f5b4   ..if you still have problem, pastebin your /var/log/Xorg.0.log file so we can have a look at it.
[02:36] <kevix> I folks. I'm running hardy for a while. recently I had my root fillup. and on reboot, i get 'overflow' on tmpfs and problems running apps that use TMPFS=/tmp. Any ideas?
[02:36] <fosco_> gaintsura: yes
[02:36] <Jack_Sparrow> Gnea, Did he change his sources to old-releases before trying to upgrade
[02:36] <stinger05> Gnea: sorry to bother you again, i was just curious about the fact if games that run under wine are playable with LAN
[02:36] <Gnea> Jack_Sparrow: no idea
[02:36] <Jack_Sparrow> kevbuntu, boot a live cd and purge /var/cache/apt/archives
[02:37] <Dante1231> Jack_Sparrow sorry, had a phone call.  I have the system rebooted and working, however under the nvidia settings gui it thinks my acer 19 widescreen is a CRT.  And gives me less resolution choices than before.  How can I fix that?
[02:37] <Gnea> stinger05: linux is, by nature, a networkable Operating System. Therefore, yes.
[02:37] <johnflux> is it possible to do PPOE over wireless? :-)
[02:37] <Jack_Sparrow> kevbuntu, you can also save stuff you want to keep to a usb stick
[02:38] <Jack_Sparrow> dante one sec..
[02:38] <aleksN^> Gnea; the system is rebooted, but I still get the same error when typing update-manager -d
[02:38] <Gnea> johnflux: that would be a good networking question, best asked in #networking ;)
[02:39] <Jack_Sparrow> Dante123, sudo nvidia-xconfig from a terminal             then sudo nvidia-settings
[02:39] <hissing_sunhat> Jack_Sparrow, do you mean to save my home on a separate drive and do a fresh install?
[02:39] <Jack_Sparrow> Dante123, let me know what erros you get
[02:39] <The_Rebel> i think you guys missunderstand me
[02:39] <Jack_Sparrow> hissing_sunhat, yep
[02:39] <The_Rebel> when i do apt-get install freenx it has a ton of suggested packages it wants to install with everything else
[02:40] <Gnea> aleksN^: okay, apparently there's something that has to do with old-releases that we need to figure out
[02:40] <The_Rebel> how do i tell apt not to install all that other stuff
[02:40] <Jack_Sparrow> The_Rebel, rephrase your question, the answers you have received are right for your question
[02:40] <ziggyH> hi all
[02:40] <Gnea> The_Rebel: but it doesn't install 'suggested' packages
[02:40] <Gnea> ...that's why they're suggested. :)
[02:40] <Jack_Sparrow> The_Rebel, You mean the dependencies.. if you dont install them, your program wont run
[02:40] <The_Rebel> oh i thought it did
[02:40] <The_Rebel> thanks Gnea
[02:40] <papna> Hi ziggyH. Welcome. =)
[02:41] <Jack_Sparrow> Gnea, you need the link for old-releases?
[02:41] <papna> !ask | ziggyH
[02:41] <Gnea> Jack_Sparrow: please
[02:41] <Jack_Sparrow> one sec
[02:41] <Jack_Sparrow> Gnea, http://old-releases.ubuntu.com/releases/
[02:42] <mustache> ok?
[02:42] <Jack_Sparrow> Dinner is here bbl
[02:42] <Sorcererbob> so yes, trying the "Two Separate X Sessions" option was an epic fail
[02:44] <jake123> !GTK
[02:44] <Sorcererbob> so the cube works fine when I only have one screen
[02:44] <Sorcererbob> when I enable the second screen (twinview) the cube becomes an octagon and each octagon (one on each screen) has every desktop
[02:44] <Gnea> aleksN^: check this out: http://www.linux-archive.org/ubuntu-user/111092-upgrading-old-releases.html
[02:45] <Lymies> I was on a website, blogtv, where you can watch webcams, and when I closed the window it made this skipping sound that wouldn't go away, so I closed firefox, then I logged out and it kept doing that, then I did /etc/init.d/alsa-utils stop, and when I shut down alsa of course it stopped, but when I turned it back on it was back again, so I just restarted. Now I don't have any sound.
[02:45] <jake123> how do i install a GTK theme that I downloaded from gnomelook.org
[02:45] <progre55> hi everybody!
[02:45] <Sorcererbob> how do I stop this weird cube behaviour?
[02:45] <bbechdol> Hello everyone
[02:45] <onetinsoldier> !howdy | progre55
[02:45] <Gnea> Sorcererbob: what weird cube behavior?
[02:45] <onetinsoldier> !howdy | bbechdol
[02:46] <|ntegra|> aaroncampbell:
[02:46] <progre55> my dmesg has been showing some exceptions as "[16664.696695] __ratelimit: 107 callbacks suppressed" and "[16664.696710] not enough headroom [12] for radiotap head [25]". what would that mean?
[02:46] <|ntegra|> I KNOW an aaroncampbell
[02:46] <bbechdol>  I was curious
[02:46] <Gnea> |ntegra|: and?
[02:46] <bbechdol> I Love Ubuntu and I want to do something to give back to everyone that has helped me
[02:47] <Sorcererbob> Gnea: it works fine when I have a single screen; it has 4 sides and is wonderful. When I enable my second screen (using twinview via Nvidia drivers) each screen shows a "cube", which is fine, the problem is that the "cube" is actually an octagon. The octagon has all 4 of the desktops from each screen.
[02:47] <bbechdol> I am not sure whicih way to go
[02:47] <progre55> bbechdol, you could help me :)
[02:47] <Gnea> bbechdol: you can idle in here and help other newbies out :)
[02:47]  * eseven73 accepts paypal bbechdol :P
[02:47] <Jack_Sparrow> !contribute
[02:48] <bbechdol> @ubottu thanks ill check it out
[02:48] <bbechdol> I was almost thinking about offering help in ubuntu-motu or ubuntu-devel
[02:48] <Gnea> Sorcererbob: right, you've got 4 virtual desktops on both screens, thus giving you 8 altogether, and thus, an octogon.
[02:48] <bbechdol> but I have never programmed befor :)
[02:48] <andres_> hi
[02:48] <Jack_Sparrow> bbechdol, HElp in any area is always appreciated by all
[02:48] <johnflux> on packages.ubuntu.com, it would be nice if it was possible to download a package and all of its dependencies as a single .tar.gz file
[02:49] <Sorcererbob> Gnea: no. I have 4 virtual desktops total
[02:49] <Jack_Sparrow> johnflux, That isnt going to happen
[02:49] <Sorcererbob> Gnea: each virtual desktop spans both screens
[02:49] <johnflux> Jack_Sparrow: why not?  I was thinking that it could use the LSB to know what to include
[02:49] <Gnea> Sorcererbob: but you have 8 - the cube interprets each 'real' screen as 1
[02:49] <johnflux> Jack_Sparrow:  e.g. so it doesnt include glibc packages etc
[02:49] <bbechdol> bjb
[02:50] <Gnea> !cube | Sorcererbob
[02:50] <Jack_Sparrow> johnflux, Please discuss it in offtopic or -motu etc
[02:50] <progre55> hey, can someone please help me out? my dmesg has been showing some exceptions as "[16664.696695] __ratelimit: 107 callbacks suppressed" and "[16664.696710] not enough headroom [12] for radiotap head [25]". what would that mean?
[02:50] <Sorcererbob> I'll join the compiz channel. Thank you
[02:50] <Gnea> Sorcererbob: I would highly consider the #compiz-fusion room for better details on it
[02:50] <Gnea> Sorcererbob: and good luck

[02:51] <aleksN^> !sources.list 7.04
[02:51] <Roums> Does anyone know how i could resolve my problem with gnome not starting up (blocked after logon screen), see : http://pastebin.com/m2a565434 for some messages

[02:51] <LaBlua> I'm trying to upgrade this laptop from feisty to gutsy, using the update manager gui, and it appears to be hanging at the "Installing the upgrades" step. Nothing is displaying in the terminal, and none of the logs in /var/log/dist-upgrade/ have been updated in over 12 minutes
[02:52] <crf> LaBlua, have you tried only once?
[02:52] <aleksN^> I'm not able to find the original sources.list for ubuntu 7.04
[02:53] <LaBlua> crf: I tried cancelling out of it and restarting it, but it got to the same spot again and locked up.
[02:53] <LaBlua> Well, I dunno if locked up is accurate.. the orange bar keeps moving back and forth, but nothing else is happening. CPU, network, and disk look pretty idle
[02:53] <sjr> Help me, I'm hurt, injured, possibly beyond repair.
[02:53] <Jack_Sparrow> aleksN^, you edit your sources to point to that page
[02:54] <Sorcererbob> cheers Gnea. I'll let you know how I go

[02:56] <vostro1510> Tidus
[02:56] <aleksN^> Jack_Sparrow; I'm not sure what you mean. I edited the sources.list ( https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GutsyUpgrades ) as said here, and Gneu sendt me a link from a forum where a guy says that after updating my sources.list, I should edit it back to my old souces.list
[02:56] <nowimproved> Uh, flash is making my computer run at 95 percent cpu again, joy
[02:57] <Lymies> I was on a website, blogtv, where you can watch webcams, and when I closed the window it made this skipping sound that wouldn't go away, so I closed firefox, then I logged out and it kept doing that, then I did /etc/init.d/alsa-utils stop, and when I shut down alsa of course it stopped, but when I turned it back on it was back again, so I just restarted. Now I don't have any sound.
[02:57] <vostro1510> just putting the back of notebook up didnt solve the problem.
[02:57] <vostro1510> I put a ventilador (rack ventilator) to flow air to notebook.
[02:57] <vostro1510> It helped a lot
[02:57] <vostro1510> But still hot. :FD
[02:57] <Jack_Sparrow> Gnea, You here
[02:57] <Germ|Mint> Im doing a complete recompile of my system (i was bored) using apt-build and am wondering. If I were to CtrlC it would it harm my system
[02:58] <vostro1510> I did the Dell test. Fans are wotking
[02:58] <LaBlua> Any ideas on my lock up on upgrade? I've been unsuccessful so far in my Google searches.
[02:58] <Tidus> someone ping me?
[02:58] <vostro1510> Now, I am trying to correct my Ubuntu installation. It was crazy :D
[02:58] <vostro1510> 8.10
[02:58] <SJrX> Tidus did you have to have a show on Fox?
[02:58] <Stormx2> Lymies, make sure firefox/npviewer.bin aren't running.
[02:58] <SJrX> 1.17 seconds Tidus
[02:58] <vostro1510> Just to say thanks em to inform results.
[02:58] <vostro1510> Tks
[02:58] <Tidus> SJrX: huh?
[02:58] <MikeH> Any Gnome/compiz users here? How can I add a desktop to compiz? When I enable desktop cube, only two workspaces are shown, instead of the 4 I have now?
[02:58] <SJrX> Nothing
[02:58] <Tidus> vostro1510: not a problem
[02:59] <Germ|Mint> anyone?
[02:59] <vostro1510> sorry, a feature. :-)
[02:59] <Wildcat_> guys anyone have any ideas why in ubuntu 8.10 i get only static as audio with my hdmi cable??
[02:59] <churl> my nm-applet is not in the panel any ideas?
[02:59] <Stormx2> MikeH: The way I do it is to add the "workspace switcher" thingy to my GNOME panel, then right click > preferences, and set the workspaces to 4.
[02:59] <m15k> does anybody know how to install JDK update 11 on ubuntu?
[02:59] <Lymies> Stormx2, still not working
[02:59] <vostro1510> I update my Ubuntu from 8.04, using 8.10 cdrom and cdromupgrade.
[02:59] <mdg> churl: right click on he menu and add it back
[03:00] <Stormx2> Lymies, killall pulseaudio?
[03:00] <Jack_Sparrow> MikeH, Install ccsm  sudo apt-get install compizconfig-settings-manager Next go to system...pref..advanced desktop effects....  On the first page  put check next to rotate cube and desktop cube.. dbl click general options... up closer to the top...  click on desktop size  and set them to 4, 1 and 1  top to bottom... ctrl+alt+(Left Mouse Button) then move mous
[03:00] <mdg> I mean the menu bar
[03:00] <vostro1510> but it didnt worked (I think).  :D
[03:01] <Lymies> I was using pulseaudio before, maybe if I switch back to just plain alsa it'll be fine
[03:01] <Lymies> How do you switch back?
[03:01] <MikeH> Jack_Sparrow: It won't let me change the value from 1.
[03:01] <Jack_Sparrow> MikeH, Time for me to run.. but if it wont let you change that is a different issue..
[03:02] <Stormx2> Lymies, personally I just have a script which kills pulseaudio on boot. pulseaudio is just a complete bastard generally. skype won't work with it. flash won't work with it. it blocks alsa, etc etc. if you can live without per-application volume controls (i can), just kill it as a startup prog.
[03:02] <churl> mdg: i dont think i can do that, i believe this is part of a bug
[03:02] <Stormx2> Off to bed. ciao
[03:02] <moontan> happy new year everybody. i can't print, export pdf/postscript or other formats from many applications any more since i installed a bunch of musical notation progs. what can i do about this?
[03:03] <system_> i cant run msn in wine
[03:03] <mizery> A friend of mine just installed Ubuntu on their computer.  Their keyboard used in X as well as at terminal/console is strange.  I'm trying to figure out how to fix it.  they have a standard QWERTY keyboard but the following keys result: Pushing "q" shows 5, "w" shows 6, "e" shows q, "r" shows ., "t" shows o and "y" shows r.  I'm not sure what layout is being used or if it's a standard layout.  How can I find out how to change the keyboard
[03:03] <vostro1510> cheers
[03:03] <vostro1510> regards
[03:03] <vostro1510> tks
[03:03] <gaelfx> mizery: num lock is on
[03:03] <gaelfx> perhaps?
[03:04] <mizery> gaelfx: nope
[03:04] <dnyy> Err, my sound just stopped work.  I can't kill pulseaudio either, not with 'pulseaudio -k' or 'killall pulseaudio.'  I keep getting a 'startup daemon failed' error. Anyone know how to fix this? :(
[03:04] <mizery> I rebooted to make sure as well, and it is configured into the system somehow.  It has been like this since installation from an 8.10 disk I gave him
[03:04] <Wildcat_> guys... in ubuntu my sound card is not sending sound to my computer.... im assuming its a problem with ubuntu 8.10... any delt with it? anyone have any ideas at all? or were else to look?
[03:05] <churl> mdg: something about another session using nm-applet, ive read that it's a known bug in 8.10 but it seems like it should have been fixed by now...
[03:05] <LaBlua> mizery: Are you sure it isn't turning numlock on during boot?
[03:05] <donavan> does anyone know how to make virtualbox see my new wifi card ... I have a vm installed but it wont see the network now
[03:05] <mizery> LaBlua: let me check
[03:05] <LaBlua>  I'm trying to upgrade this laptop from feisty to gutsy, using the update manager gui, and it appears to be hanging at the "Installing the upgrades" step. Nothing is displaying in the terminal, and none of the logs in /var/log/dist-upgrade/ have been updated in over 26 minutes. I tried cancelling and restarting, with the same results.
[03:05] <andres_> 1
[03:05] <LaBlua> any ideas?
[03:06] <MikeH> hrm, odd
[03:06] <gaelfx> I'm having a problem with SCIM, it appears that I have alternate input methods installed and enabled, but when I click the SCIM icon, nothing shows up, how can I get my alternate input methods working again?
[03:06] <Mallen_> what is the command for normal time
[03:06] <MikeH> Whislt I have 4 workspaces, cube only shows 2
[03:06] <ZellSF> how do I turn the wireless card OFF on my eeepc in ubuntu?
[03:06] <ZellSF> I tried disabling it in the bios and ubuntu just turns it back on
[03:06] <Mallen_> currently mine is set at  [%H:%M]
[03:06] <skeet0r> would someone please take a look at this memory allcation error that I'm getting? you can see it here http://pastebin.com/m2027e7ba
[03:07] <skeet0r> Im not sure what I need to do in order to fix it.. I think its most likely a simple fix
[03:07] <LaBlua> ZellSF: Trying to just disable networking through it, or actually power it down?
[03:07] <ZellSF> actually power it down
[03:07] <mizery> LaBlua / gaelfx: I turned off NumLock before booting Ubuntu and it didn't turn back on throughout the boot.  Reaching the GUI login screen the keyboard is still producing same strange results.
[03:07] <LaBlua> ZellSF: Hmm, sorry, I dunno how to do that.
[03:08] <mdg> churl, can you start nm-applet from the command line?
[03:08] <SJrX> I have broken grub on my machine and can't boot. I had messed with the partitions, but basically the long short of it is, that Windows 2003 overwrote the bootsector, and even after fixing it, now all my linux installs can't seem to be able to find root
[03:08] <ZellSF> I was hoping disabling it in the bios would work
[03:08] <kerri> can someone please help me with the sound on Ubuntu 8.10
[03:08] <churl> mdg: i get an error
[03:09] <churl> mdg: ** (nm-applet:21869): WARNING **: <WARN>  applet_dbus_manager_start_service(): Could not acquire the NetworkManagerUserSettings service as it is already taken.  Return: 3 (nm-applet:21869): GLib-GObject-CRITICAL **: g_object_unref: assertion `G_IS_OBJECT (object)' failed
[03:09] <LaBlua> SJrx: Have you tried booting from an ubuntu cd, running the rescue console, and running grub from there?
[03:09] <ZellSF> sigh guess I'll just have to deal with this  the few days I can't reinstall anything else :/
[03:09] <kerri> can someone help before i switch to windows
[03:09] <SJrX> LaBlua, yeah I followed some guides, where I type root(hd0, 4) and then setup (hd0)
[03:09] <kerri> NOWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW
[03:09] <SJrX> That got GRUB to actually start, but all my linux options in the boot menu are b0rked.
[03:09] <SJrX> Hi kerri
[03:09] <skeet0r> any idea what I would need to do in order to fix the following error message: Fatal error: Allowed memory size of 15728640 bytes exhausted (tried to allocate 1966080 bytes) in /usr/share/php/XML/Util.php on line 532
[03:10] <WebminNoobLOL> Hello, is there anyone here that uses webmin and knows alot about it?
[03:10] <ZellSF> does disabling the network card do anything to reduce power usage?
[03:10] <Jack_Sparrow> kerri,  Settle down please
[03:10] <Chicano> how do i add songs to ipod using rythmbox
[03:10] <ConstantineXVI> !patience > kerri
[03:10] <SJrX> kerri,  don't demand help, but yo udidn't ask a question, what is your specific problem
[03:10] <Jack_Sparrow> WebminNoobLOL, webmin is not supported
[03:10] <Jack_Sparrow> !webmin
[03:10] <duckamuk> using weechat, ignores for join,quit are working but leave isnt.  did the syntax change?
[03:10] <ZellSF> does disabling a wireless network card reduce power usage notably?
[03:11] <werLd-> zellsf: no
[03:11] <WebminNoobLOL> hmm... I was using it till like a week ago and it just stopped
[03:11] <SJrX> skeet0r yeah, there is an option in PHP for maximum memory usage, you passed it. However it also looks like a bug in the code, if it's trying to use 30 megs per connection, that'll be pretty bad.
[03:11] <Chicano> how do i add songs to ipod using rythmbox
[03:11] <Sorcererbob> Gnea, I fixed it by changing an option in the compiz manager (under Desktop Cube). Multiple Output Mode (set it to multiple cubes)
[03:11] <Jack_Sparrow> !ipod
[03:11] <ZellSF> gah, I need the battery on this thing to last tomorrow
[03:11] <WebminNoobLOL> !ebox
[03:12] <mdg> churl, have you had other nm-apptlet errors before this?
[03:12] <Chris_Chase> Would anybody know how to install a USB driver for a modem on Ubuntu?
[03:12] <kerri> SJrX: can someone please help me with the sound on Ubuntu 8.10
[03:12] <cyberjuice>  i just think its crazy how I can see my Shared Ubuntu files over the network from a windows machine but I cant see the Shared windows files from Ubuntu.  But I see the windows shared files on the network when im on another windows machine.  Ubuntu just wont let me see the shared windows drives on the network
[03:12] <cyberjuice>  it shows me the machine name but when i click on it nothing is there.  but if i go to my Xp machine and go to the shared files on vista they are there so i know they are shared
[03:12] <skeet0r> SJrX: you think that it is definitely a code error an there is no way to fix it by editing a configuration file or something?
[03:12] <ConstantineXVI> ZellSF: as in, a full 8 hours?  good luck on any laptop
[03:12] <churl> mdg: nope
[03:12] <ZellSF> ConstantineXVI: no as in a full two hours
[03:12] <progre55> hey, can someone please help me out? my dmesg has been showing some exceptions as "[16664.696695] __ratelimit: 107 callbacks suppressed" and "[16664.696710] not enough headroom [12] for radiotap head [25]". what would that mean?
[03:12] <kerri> I hear the drum in the beginning , then when i log in I hear no sound
[03:12] <SJrX> kerri that's not a question, what about sound, can you not mute, can you not get any volume? What kind of audio do you have.
[03:13] <SJrX> skeet0r, well it depends on exactly what happens.
[03:13] <kerri> NOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
[03:13] <kerri> i wouldn't be here
[03:13] <LaBlua> cyberjuice: Are you using the same account name on the XP and Vista machines?
[03:13] <gaelfx> I can't get SCIM to switch to any different input methods even though they are installed and enabled, can someone help me figure out what's going wrong? I suspect something is screwed up in the preferences file, but I'm not sure where it is or how to correct it once I get there
[03:13] <skeet0r> how can I determine what exactly is going on?
[03:13] <SJrX> skeet0r,  sometimes it's legitimate for a script to use that much memory, like if you are importing a bunch of data. However if that happens when you are trying to setup like phpBB then it's probably bad.
[03:13] <cyberjuice> lablua - yes
[03:13] <SJrX> But I need to know exactly what you are doing to produce that error, it could be a bug in the script, or malformed XML, or a bunch of things.
[03:14] <theUg> Hi. How long should I keep different kernel options in GRUB? And if I delete an entry in menu.lst, I don remove extra kernel, am I?
[03:14] <skeet0r> running a script called nzbirc.. Im not sure if you're famiiar but it works until I send a search query to the bot and then thats when I get the error message
[03:15] <Varth> Can anyone point me in the right direction for a working deb of ZSNES in Intrepid?
[03:15] <LaBlua> theUg: 1 kernel prior to the current one, no need to keep them past that
[03:15] <SJrX> skeet0r,  hmmmm you'd have to know PHP and the code to know how to fix it. You might try asking on the projects IRC channel, forums or mailing list. I would guess it's a bug, unless your query is ridiciolously long.
[03:15] <dborel> could anyone help me, i'm struggling to install Wrath x-pac for WoW, been at it the past few days, and I still cant figure it out, had my comp crash the other day and somehow lost a window file, so got ubuntu and i hv managed to so far install the reg game by downloading the trial client, which came with BC, but I cant get wrath to install
[03:15] <werLd-> theug: i believe you are safe editing medu.lst although cp -p menu.lst beforehand
[03:15] <Dante1231> Jack_Sparrow no errors to report now- but nvidia-settings still has CRT listed instead of Acer lcd
[03:16] <Hashishanin> on ununtu, where are the import and lib folders?
[03:16] <Jack_Sparrow> Dante123, I need to go but how is the res?
[03:16] <theUg> Are all prior kernel versions actually stored on hard drive?
[03:16] <LaBlua> hashishnin: Er, isn't /lib the lib folder? Import and lib folders for what?
[03:16] <Chris_Chase> my Ethernet port is broken, so I am forced to resort to connecting to my modem via USB but i cant connect to the internet on it to download the driver
[03:16] <umpc> Hello, how would I fix this error? http://pastebin.com/m4d7daa92
[03:16] <skeet0r> I think Im using a beta version of the program so maybe Ill revert to a more stable release
[03:16] <skeet0r> hopefully that will fix the issue
[03:17] <Dante1231> Anyone know how to get nvidia-setting to reflect correct monitor??
[03:17] <werLd-> hashishanin: to be able to search, run 'updatedb' after the index has built, search for files or dirs with 'locate import'
[03:18] <Varth> Can anyone point me in the right direction for a working .deb of ZSNES in Intrepid?
[03:18] <skeet0r> sJrX Thank you very much for your help I appreciate it.. I assumed it was a bug in the code as well but I thought there ay have been a simple way to fix it
[03:18] <Dr_willis_> Varth,  32 or 64bit ?

[03:18] <BobPenguin> Hello. My ktorrent bittorrent client does not download anything, I dont know why. I want to install some other client so I can compare performances. Which one would you recommend?
[03:18] <venger> cyberjuice, do you see it with smbclient -L <hostname> ?
[03:18] <Dante1231> Jack_Sparrow res is better, but I cannot go to the higher level I had previously when it knew my monitor was not crt but acer lcd.  Is there a way to set monitor????
[03:18] <dirtbag666> BobPenguin: Try Azureus
