[00:00] <Zeroo> ey, anybody can help me with x-server stuff ?:p ive tried some stuff,  but could turn it off
[00:00] <nathan7> h4mx0r: What are you on?
[00:00] <Zeroo> *couldnt
[00:00] <nathan7> Zeroo: Define 'some stuff'
[00:00] <yadu`> xmnt, http://pastebin.com/d207a7972  that would be my sources.list
[00:00] <h4mx0r> ubuntu netbook remix on one those atom processor netbooks
[00:00] <Blizzerand> randal : Let me see or make some research
[00:00] <nathan7> h4mx0r: Hmm.
[00:00] <h4mx0r> nathan7: any idea what trouble could be with touchpad?
[00:00] <nix-idioteque> nicotine+ doesn't seem to work at all, but used to...  I'm wondering if my latest update had changed whatever it is that runs nicotine (Ithink it's a python compiler)  Blizzerand, does it still work for you?
[00:01] <xmnt> yadu`, you using aptonCD?
[00:01] <nathan7> h4mx0r: The EEE I'm typing on has broken mouse buttons
[00:01] <Zeroo> well, I tried like init 3
[00:01] <nix-idioteque> anyway of finding out why it's not responding
[00:01] <randal> Blizzerand: thanks
[00:01] <nathan7> nix-idioteque: You need more nicotine everytime
[00:01] <void_pointer> h4mx0r, try out crunchbang - an ubuntu derivative - on your netbook
[00:01] <nathan7> Hmm
[00:01] <Zeroo> but cant get it for some reason
[00:01] <nathan7> I ought to try that
[00:01] <void_pointer> h4mx0r, works out of the box
[00:01] <ForestBear> hey guys, I have a pixel on my monitor that shows up in a reddish color if the color it's supposed to be is brighter, but if the color it's supposed ot be is darker it acts correctly, is this a stuck pixel, a dead pixel, or what, and how can I fix it?
[00:01]  * nathan7 dereferences void_pointer and segfaults
[00:01] <yadu`> xmnt, i do use it,... but right now all of it comes from the net
[00:01] <nix-idioteque> nathan7: pack a day, homie
[00:01] <Zeroo> could be im doing something wrong
[00:02] <nathan7> ForestBear: There's a program to fix it, I forgot the name
[00:02] <Zeroo> but i dont know what :p
[00:02] <xmnt> yadu`, disable that if you're not using it
[00:02] <Blizzerand> nix-idioteque : Sorry I can't quite move to ubuntu ( I'm not on ubuntu) , what version are you using
[00:02] <nathan7> ForestBear: http://www.wikihow.com/Fix-a-Stuck-Pixel-on-an-LCD-Monitor
[00:02] <h4mx0r> void_pointer yes I liked that one very much but if I could set it up to use the features of netbook ubuntu it would be so much easier to use
[00:02] <void_pointer> runs well on this atom n270, and the touchpad still has gestures etc.
[00:02] <nix-idioteque> the latest, 9.04
[00:02] <chingus> Does Ubuntu have a built in PERL writer/interpreter?
[00:02] <soundray> !upstart | Zeroo
[00:02] <h4mx0r> void_pointer the full screen option and little sections for programs and documents are nice
[00:02] <nix-idioteque> chingus: I know I've seen one in synapse
[00:02] <aleron6> can anybody help me get my sound back i need help
[00:02] <void_pointer> h4mx0r, yeah. I gave up. I feel the ubuntu netbook remix is inferior
[00:02] <nix-idioteque> chingus: synaptic, sorry
[00:02] <fantazam> hello were can i download firefox 3.5.3 for ubuntu hardy-(but not shiretotko crap) i wana real stable firefox.. whit shiretoko none of my addons are working..
[00:02] <chingus> nix-idioteque, what is synapse?
[00:03] <h4mx0r> void_pointer did you have issues?
[00:03] <chingus> nix-idioteque, kk thanks
[00:03] <h4mx0r> void_pointer: with the mouse?
[00:03] <jiohdi> is it possible that a compaq deskpro is so old that its sound card will not be recognized by ubuntu?
[00:03] <void_pointer> h4mx0r, yes, and touchpad
[00:03] <Piranah> Anyone had issues with firefox since the last round of ubuntu updates ?
[00:03] <randal> Blizzerand: any luck so far i think it might be the x-server i dont know
[00:03] <void_pointer> h4mx0r, and function buttons like dim etc.
[00:03] <yadu`> xmnt, okay ... now is there somethin we can do abt the installation ?
[00:03] <jiohdi> piranah, all my book marks vanished and will not return
[00:03] <Blizzerand> randal : Do you have menu bar and all that stuff
[00:03] <jiohdi> Piranah: its like some file is locked out
[00:03] <nix-idioteque> chingus: System > Pref > Synaptic...  I can't remember the name however
[00:03] <h4mx0r> void_pointer: I noticed those buttons didn't work from start thanks for info
[00:03] <xmnt> yes, you need to completely purge mysql .. again .. and make sure everything is removed
[00:04] <icarus> Kanye: hey sudo, im gonna let you have your time, but i just wanted to say that su is the best way to get root of all time, and only ubuntu fags use sudo, k
[00:04] <Piranah> My cpu usage for fire fox keeps jumping to 100 percent. Dual core system and i see it jumping 100 percent from core 1 and then core 2 via htop
[00:04] <xmnt> yadu`, yes, you need to completely purge mysql .. again .. and make sure everything is removed
[00:04] <xmnt> yadu`, you also need to run an update
[00:04] <jiohdi> Piranah: I use xmarks and it will not restore my book marks
[00:04] <nathan7> ForestBear: http://www.jscreenfix.com/
[00:04] <bazhang> icarus, watch the language
[00:04] <void_pointer> h4mx0r, someone told me a fix for my mouse, but it didn't work. Maybe you'll have better luck
[00:04] <randal> Blizzerand: no i dont
[00:04] <xmnt> yadu`, and also run apt-get autoremove
[00:04] <blip-> hey just a random thought,  instead of Jauny Jackalope,  should've been called Jumping Joe
[00:04] <yadu`> xmnt should i also need to remove the packages in /var/apt/cache ?
[00:04] <Piranah> jiohdi, thats terrible as well :(
[00:04] <fantazam> anybody where can i get new firefox for ubuntu?
[00:05] <h4mx0r> void_pointer: that's what I don't get I mean it was working perhaps I didn't reboot after update and it had broken
[00:05] <jiohdi> Piranah: it only did that on my laptop, the desktop is working fine
[00:05] <xmnt> yadu`, that couldn't hurt
[00:05] <aleron6> can anybody help me install this alsa driver
[00:05] <icarus> yadu`: sudo rm -frv /var/apt/cache
[00:05] <jals_> is there a way to save my current desktop session so it resumes on reboot?
[00:05] <chingus> nix-idioteque, thanks I found the package. but it gived the error :broken packages and aborts.
[00:05] <jrib> !ff35 | fantazam
[00:05] <Piranah> jiohdi, kk. I have no idea why firefox is going cpu hungry though this is bugging me
[00:05] <yadu`> xmnt, last time i did an autoremove... half my system went down the drain
[00:05] <panv> hi all, i've seen somewhere a tutorial how to use alltray with dmesg to display the system messages and keep it updating on the desktop.. does anyone has an idea about this ?? i lost the link, and cannot do it again...
[00:05] <void_pointer> h4mx0r, yes, mine was working too, and I never found out what made it stop lol
[00:05] <void_pointer> h4mx0r,  you might be the dude to solve the mystery
[00:05] <ForestBear> nathan7: but i'm not sure it's the same problem because the pixel isn't "stuck" per se
[00:06] <nathan7> Hmm
[00:06] <xmnt> yadu`, when you update it should tell you which packages can be removed, check the list and if needed pastebin it
[00:06] <chingus> nix-idioteque, got it thanks. nvm
[00:06] <jiohdi> Piranah: there is a version called seamonkey already installed and it seems to work better
[00:06] <h4mx0r> void_pointer: I dunno but I was getting some weird acpid calls from root perhaps its a power save feature gone wrong killing it
[00:06] <Piranah> jiohdi, ok thnx
[00:06] <icarus> yadu`: if you sudo rm -frv /var/cache/ and then sudo apt-get update, it will auto-correct itself
[00:06] <icarus> yadu`: that is the best way to do it
[00:06] <chingus> I was just wondering that ubuntu has a much faster internet speed on the same computer than windows xp once did. same hardware, modem ISP everything the same, but ubuntu is faster. Is there any particular reason for that?
[00:07] <fantazam> ubottu: i have already installed but mozilla-mplayer is not workin whit this ver. when i try to install mozilla mplayer it want me to download firefox 3.1??
[00:07] <nathan7> chingus: Better network drivers
[00:07] <yadu`> icarus, thank you ... :P
[00:07] <chingus> nathan7, k thanks.
[00:07] <void_pointer> h4mx0r, yeah, I suspected the acpi - well I'm almost sure that's what it was. Reinstalling all the stuff I could find didn't help
[00:07] <soundray> yadu`: don't do what icarus suggests unless you know precisely what it does
[00:07] <panv> no one knows how to do that ???
[00:07] <randal> Blizzerand: its rely werid its was working perfectly fine grphics enabled and everthing but then i restarted the computer for updates and i no longer had and bars on the top of windows or the bars on the desktop
[00:08] <soundray> icarus: please don't recommend removing the entire cache directory. You don't know whether they have valuable stuff in there.
[00:08] <yadu`> xmnt, i think there is something u shud see.... when i do the install... the details say mysql server shutdown.. cos of not being able to connect to the sql server
[00:08] <aleron6> can anybody help me get alsa working
[00:08] <Blizzerand> randal : Sorry but I don't quite use ubuntu remix but as you said it may be an x-server prob .
[00:08] <xmnt> yadu`, yes it's not able to start because the install doesn't finish
[00:09] <icarus> aleron6: sudo /etc/init.d/alsa restart
[00:09] <xmnt> yadu`, did you finish those steps yet?
[00:09] <Blizzerand> randal : Look into the post by warreno . Are you having the same trouble as that guy  http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-875887.html
[00:09] <randal> Blizzerand: ubuntu remix make no differnce i changed it to clasic mod so its exactly the same as ubuntu
[00:10] <nathan7> !u | yadu`
[00:10] <yadu`> xmnt, yea... its because of some /var/run/mysqld/mysql ... somethin missing... the socket cannot connect or somethin like that
[00:10] <void_pointer> nathan7, thank you.
[00:10] <xmnt> yadu`, I only have a few more minutes until I'm outta here ... did you run through those steps?
[00:10] <icarus> yadu`: you can also sudo chown -R 667 /etc/, sometimes ubuntu has issues with its file permission, and it doesn't seamlessly upgrade
[00:10] <DJCharlie> afternoon folks.
[00:10] <randal> Blizzerand: yes that sound kinda like my problem but i got no bar to go to settings to fix that do i go into like safe mode how do i do that
[00:10] <icarus> yadu`: that might help you out as well
[00:10] <Blizzerand> randal: Not sure  but try Alt-F2 and type in Gnome panel to get the panel back
[00:11] <yadu`> nathan7, ubottu  i'm so sorry , It's just that, it comes out that way when I type faster ... making amends
[00:11] <randal> Blizzerand: ya i just read that how do i get out of that terminal when i type that in
[00:11] <formode> Blizzerand: randal, It's gnome-panel
[00:11] <hipodilski> hi guys, I'm having Windows Vista installed on my system and I'd like to install Ubuntu on the same machine. I've downloaded Ubuntu but I wonder if it's possible to use the Ubuntu install to resize my ntfs partition without loosing my Vista?
[00:11] <void_pointer> !ubottu
[00:12] <randal> formode: thanks
[00:12]  * Blizzerand huggles formode
[00:12] <formode> hipodilski: Yes very easily. You should try just using wubi though.
[00:12] <icarus> hipodilski: check out wubi
[00:12] <chingus> hipodilski, yes, use wubi
[00:12] <soundray> hipodilski: yes, no problem
[00:12] <Blizzerand> formode : Thanks dude
[00:12] <DJCharlie> i'm having a fair amount of trouble with getting vgetty up and running properly. using a diamond supra express 56e pro modem (works great), but it won't answer. here's a paste of the log, from init, through a test call made by me: http://pastebin.com/m3c837d39
[00:12] <roguesmiler> THIS CHANNEL JUST LOST THE GAME
[00:12] <formode> Blizzerand: Ack Ubuntu scum! *Sprays*
[00:12] <DJCharlie> any ideas on what it could be?
[00:12] <randal> Blizzerand: like i lcick alt f2 then put the code in then how do i get back to my normal screen
[00:12] <chingus> !wubi > chingus
[00:12] <h4mx0r> void_pointer: I found this http://www.freesoftwaremagazine.com/columns/ubuntu_netbook_remix_detailed_explanation so gonna try doing an openbox similar to netbook distro of ubuntu
[00:12] <formode> randal: Alt f1
[00:12] <randal> formode:  thanks
[00:12] <randal> Blizzerand: ill try that brb
[00:13] <xmnt> hipodilski, just burn to a cd or put on a usb drive ... run it by rebooting into the live distro ... no need to install via wubi
[00:13] <Piranah> OK killed firefox re-launched a clean instance and still in htop i see 6 sep process for firefox wth
[00:13] <prower> as unintentionally funny as this sounds, in jaunty using firefox 3.5 when closing out, i'm still left with a lot of "zombie" processes that even kill -9 doesn't seem to affect :P
[00:13] <Blizzerand> randal : No you probably would get a panel thing lol
[00:13] <chingus> !wubi > hipodilski
[00:13] <Piranah> power i am seeing sim issues
[00:13] <DigitalKiwi> bazhang: ahh, come on, that was funny
[00:13] <bucky> yadu`, this sounds like  you installed mysql from source and you have a stale /etc/mysql/my.cnf that's not point to where your socket really is (/tmp/mysql.sock)  ... it's one of the oldest bugs
[00:13] <chingus> Ubottu is an interesting bot...
[00:13] <formode> randal: What DE are you in? Alt F2 in gnome should just pop up a little box. Not bring youi to tty.
[00:13] <Blizzerand> !netbook
[00:14] <xmnt> yadu`, gotta go ... here's the final install line:: sudo aptitude install mysql-server mysql-client libmysqlclient15-dev
[00:14] <xmnt> yadu`, good luck
[00:14] <DigitalKiwi> i hadn't seen a lost the game in like months
[00:14] <Piranah> !firefox
[00:14] <formode> !chromium
[00:14] <formode> Oy shitty.
[00:14] <yadu`> xmnt , can i have ur mail id please ??
[00:14] <Piranah> !firefox-3.5
[00:14] <chingus> !cpan
[00:14] <chingus> !perl
[00:14] <formode> Shiretoko is sexy <3
[00:14] <fuzzman54> !samba
[00:14] <soundray> !msgthebot > chingus
[00:14] <bazhang> chingus, /msg ubottu please
[00:15] <randal> formode:  how do i run gnome-panel do i use the comand run or something
[00:15] <formode> randal: What Desktop Enviroment are you in?
[00:15] <bazhang> formode, watch the language
[00:15] <yadu`> bucky, well ... my problem is that mysql does not connect properly as the socket is not properly configured...
[00:15] <chingus> soundray, bazhang sorry
[00:15] <soundray> chingus: perl is installed by default in Ubuntu
[00:15] <randal> formod ubuntu remix
[00:15] <soundray> chingus: :)
[00:15] <geophysics> what is shutdown or logout  command on terminal ??
[00:15] <randal> alt f2 did nothing
[00:15] <icarus> !cock
[00:15] <formode> randal: So Gnome, alright, and the panel at the top is gone?
[00:16] <chingus> soundray, and good packages you can recommend? I am a student for PERL but haven't found anything simple.
[00:16] <formode> icarus: <3
[00:16] <soundray> geophysics: sudo shutdown -h now
[00:16] <soundray> geophysics: or sudo halt
[00:16] <randal> i click ctrl alt f2 or something and broght me into a black screen wherne i login and how do i start gnome-panel
[00:16] <xmnt> yadu`, did you see my PM ?
[00:16] <chingus> geophysics, shutdown == sudo poweroff
[00:16] <randal> formode: yes it is gone
[00:16] <fuzzman54> If both pc's are Ubuntu is there a better way than Samba?
[00:16] <formode> randal: Hur hur your in tty now. THat's not what you want. brb
[00:17] <geophysics> i want to add a shutdown shotcut to my applicatiosn menu
[00:17] <chingus> fuzzman54, the best is Samba, but you can always customise the smb.conf file to make it better
[00:17] <randal> formode: :( how do i get out of it
[00:17] <chingus> randal, ctrl - D usually works
[00:17] <soundray> geophysics: why there, of all places?
[00:17] <jpds> fuzzman54: NFS.
[00:17] <formode> randal Should be that same but just press f1 instead of f2
[00:18] <soundray> randal: try Alt-F7
[00:18] <fuzzman54> It takes like twenty minutes to move a file over my network using Samba.
[00:18] <jophish> Interesting question: If I have compiled a kernel module for one kernel 2.6.28-11 and can't remember how I got it to work. can I move it to 2.6.28-15
[00:18] <hipitihop> If I want to bridge 2 wireless AP's do they need to be on seperate subnet ? I have tried on same subnet i.e. ap 1 is <IP_ADDRESS> and ap 2 is <IP_ADDRESS> but ping times seem very slow so almost as if there are collisions of some sort any tips ?
[00:18] <movela> geophysics: just right click on the panel and add to panel.. and shutdown
[00:18] <jophish> alternatively, what are commands to tell me everything about a module
[00:18] <hipodilski> well I don't want to install ubuntu via windows
[00:18] <geophysics> soundray:  to applictiosn menu or places (using edit menu)  a button or sth like that.  just like in windows
[00:18] <randal> formode:  give me 2 secs :)
[00:19] <hipodilski> I'd like to install it on a separate partition, therefore I need to repartition my current windows drive
[00:19] <Jordan_U> jophish: For many, man <module name>
[00:19] <fbianconi> !ubottu > fbianconi
[00:19] <formode> randal: I'm in no hurry. PM me if you want. 1300 people on a channel is a bit much for my attention span.
[00:19] <formode> hipodilski: You cna do it on gparted in the livecd
[00:19] <hipodilski> I was curious if ubuntu supports, repartitioning of my ntfs partitoin
[00:19] <jophish> thanks Jordan_U
[00:20] <hipodilski> formode: thanks
[00:20] <hipodilski> formode: you sure gparted supports ntfs?
[00:20] <yadu`> I changed mode of /etc/ to 777 now I get --> sudo: /etc/sudoers is mode 0777, should be 0440  , can someone tell me what mode I should give /etc/ ?
[00:20] <jophish> unfortunately, no module man entry
[00:20] <Jordan_U> jophish: np
[00:20] <formode> hipodilski: Yeah I think ubuntu has ntfsutils on the livecd, should be able to resize it too.
[00:20] <jpds> yadu`: That was a bad thing to do.
[00:20] <jrib> yadu`: what command did you run exactly?
[00:20] <randal> formode: ok i F7 broght me out how do i bring up the thing you wanted me to do
[00:20] <Blizzerand> hipodilski : yes , it supports ntfs all the way
[00:21] <yadu`> jpds, jrib  sudo chmod 777 -R /etc/
[00:21] <formode> randal: Alt F2 should bring up a box to run commands in
[00:21] <bucky> yadu`, well like i said it's one of the oldest errors in linux... and i told you how to fix it so google it cause it's because you got away from the pre packaged debs
[00:21] <randal> formode: that does nothing
[00:21] <phil__> hey guys
[00:21] <chingus> Is google chrome secure to run on UBuntu or does it have the same security issues it has on windows?
[00:21] <formode> randal: Can you get gnome-terminal up?
[00:22] <randal> i can get to terminal buy typing in crtl alt F2 :)
[00:22] <hipodilski> Blizzerand: I just want to be sure that I'm not gonna loose my windows install I have some valueable stuff there
[00:22] <soundray> geophysics: you can add it to the panel, as movela suggests
[00:22] <urthmover> why does that matter chingus? are you afraid of a linux virus?
[00:22] <formode> randal: That's not what we want.
[00:22] <randal> formode:  but i dont think thats what you want
[00:22] <jrib> yadu`: reinstalling is probably the easiest way to resolve this and don't do it in the future...
[00:22] <hipodilski> Blizzerand: you've tried the gparted way?
[00:22] <formode> randal: No that's the tty not what you want.
[00:22] <randal> for how can i get the terminal up
[00:22] <randal> formode:  whats tty
[00:22] <Blizzerand> hipodilski ; yeah , don't worry you won't loose your stuff
[00:22] <DJCharlie> can someone please look at this log from vgetty and tell me how to fix it? http://pastebin.com/m3c837d39
[00:22] <yadu`> jrgp, reinstalling ?
[00:23] <chingus> urthmover, no but google chrome is easily hackable through the buffer overflow bug...
[00:23] <formode> randal: Console mode.
[00:23] <jrib> yadu`: you need to reinstate the old permissions somehow.  If you wish to do that some other way, that works too.
[00:23] <jophish> can I get cp to skip files already there
[00:23] <randal> formode:  so what should i do next
[00:23] <jrib> jophish: use rsync
[00:23] <hipodilski> Blizzerand: ok thanks
[00:23] <urthmover> chingus: test it then
[00:23] <formode> randal: We need a "Run..." But I'm not sure how to do that on nbr.
[00:23] <urthmover> chingus: thats what vmware is for
[00:23] <jophish> jrib, I'm using that at the moment
[00:23] <jophish> actually, nm
[00:23] <soundray> DJCharlie: are you sure your modem supports voice?
[00:23] <formode> randal: Is there like a "Run..." command in your little UI thing?
[00:24] <chingus> urthmover, Yeah it works...still unsecure...pity its so much lighter though.
[00:24] <DJCharlie> soundray: definitely. i bought it for this specific reason.
[00:24] <Jordan_U> yadu`: You didn't just change the permissions of /etc, you changed the permissions of every subdirectory and file
[00:24] <randal> formode: nbr i dont think its differnt i switched into clasical mod so it looks identical to ubuntu
[00:24] <DoubleDose> that buffer overflow bug was fixed in june lol?
[00:24] <Jordan_U> yadu`: And they aren't all the same
[00:24] <Guest43083> Is this the official ubuntu support channel at irc.freenode.net?
[00:24] <urthmover> chingus: agreed its definite a dev build
[00:24] <randal> formode:  the only thing i see is the desktop picture theres nothing on my screen
[00:24] <formode> randal: Huh weird.
[00:24] <randal> formode: well i also see the mouse :)
[00:25] <txt23>  When I type ls -all -h -X in linux command line. It displays the date in a format like this: Mon DD YYYY. Is there a way to display that in YYYY-MM-DD format?
[00:25] <formode> randal: Can you ust restart xorg?
[00:25] <yadu`> Jordan_U, yes... I see the blunder now... so there is no way to fix it ?
[00:25] <randal> formod how do i do that
[00:25] <Jordan_U> yadu`: No easy way
[00:25] <soundray> DJCharlie: looking more closely, the fault doesn't seem to be specifically voice-related
[00:25] <randal> formode:  can i do that in console
[00:25] <formode> randal: I dunno how to on ubuntu, try like ctrl alt delete or something
[00:25] <yadu`> Jordan_U, hmm ... then i should get started
[00:25] <DigitalKiwi> bruenig: you have experience with restoring /etc/ perhaps you can help this yadu` fellow
[00:25] <DJCharlie> soundray: i'm thinking it's initialization, but i can't figure out how to set that, or even what to set it to.
[00:25] <Guest43083> Flash is very laggy and black frames appear in video, anyone know how to fix this problem?
[00:26] <navetz> can someone help me fix my sound
[00:26] <randal> formode: that brought up the shut down restart menu
[00:26] <chingus> Anyone recommend an active virus scanner for Ubuntu?
[00:26] <navetz> i can't listen to two programs at once
[00:26] <formode> randal: Tell it to logout
[00:26] <formode> randal: And just log back in
[00:26] <randal> formod ok
[00:26] <navetz> so i can listen to youtube, but not amarok, and vice versa .
[00:26] <navetz> i have to restart X to switch
[00:26] <soundray> DJCharlie: ignoring those messages, is it working in principle?
[00:26] <bruenig> DigitalKiwi: its on the bbs
[00:26] <soundray> !virus | chingus
[00:26] <randal> thats werid there no log out button just hibernate susspend shutdown
[00:27] <DigitalKiwi> but that used pacman not apt commands, bruenig
[00:27] <bruenig> http://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=60984
[00:27] <grayo> hey
[00:27] <bruenig> just modify it
[00:27] <bruenig> it will work
[00:27] <randal> formode:  thats werid there no log out button just hibernate susspend shutdown
[00:27] <formode> randal: Just reboot the compuiter then.
[00:27] <formode> randal: :-P
[00:27] <geophysics> movela: and this is my problem :)) I dont want it on my panel, I want it on in my gnome menu
[00:27] <randal> formode ok
[00:27] <DigitalKiwi> bruenig: he chmod -R /etc....you really think he is capable of modifying it himself? :P
[00:27] <geophysics> soundray: and this is my problem :)) I dont want it on my panel, I want it on in my gnome menu
[00:27] <chingus> soundray, I know of that but doesn't WINE generate a problem in terms of viruses?
[00:28] <Guest43083> Anyone know how to fix flash when it is laggy and black frames appear every few seconds?
[00:28] <grayo> i just installed a fresh copy of Ubuntu Netbook Remix, to my dismay my sd card reader isn't working nor is the webcam or microphone
[00:28] <bruenig> well /etc has some weird permissions
[00:28] <shadowh511> hey, does anyone know why launchpad is down?
[00:28] <Jordan_U> chingus: Google chrome for linux does not use wine
[00:28] <MrElendig> shadowh511: the pirates boarded and raided it
[00:28] <soundray> chingus: probably, but if you're running wine, why not try a Windows antivirus program?
[00:28] <bruenig> in general you can do: sudo find /etc -type d -exec chmod 755 {} \;
[00:28] <chingus> soundray, good idea
[00:29] <bruenig> and then: sudo find /etc -type f -exec chmod 644 {} \;
[00:29] <bruenig> which will get you decent enough permissions
[00:29] <bruenig> but then you will have to go through and fix sudoers and such
[00:29] <randal> formode where did you go
[00:29] <Jordan_U> bruenig: But there are security issues that are non trivial like /etc/passwd vs /etc/shadow
[00:30] <bruenig> right yes that is what I mean when I say sudoers and such
[00:30] <bruenig> but it should be doable to kind of fix the exceptions, better than a reinstall in any event
[00:30] <DJCharlie> soundray: any ideas on fixing it?
[00:31] <Noturno99> somebody help me about gtk library?
[00:31] <soundray> DJCharlie: what's the problem (aside from the error messages)?
[00:31] <jrib> Noturno99: what about it exactly?
[00:32] <Noturno99> what can I include it in my C programs?
[00:32] <SnakDoc> where do you report errors in help.ubuntu.com
[00:32] <Noturno99> i downloaded it and i don't do this yet
[00:32] <Noturno99> how..
[00:32] <aleron6> can anybody vhelp me with alsa
[00:32] <DJCharlie> soundray: well, if you'll notice at the bottom of the paste, when a call came in, not only did it not answer, but during the second ring, it said the line stopped ringing (it rang 3 more times after that).
[00:32] <MrElendig> could also poke in the .deb's to find the propper permission of the files
[00:33] <jrib> Noturno99: http://library.gnome.org/devel/gtk-tutorial/stable/
[00:33] <jrib> Noturno99: you should install the library itself using APT, not downloading it.  You need the -dev package for libgtk
[00:33] <jrib> !software > Noturno99
[00:34] <soundray> DJCharlie: where are you (country)?
[00:34] <Noturno99> ok, i do this, apt-get install gkt2.0-dev..
[00:34] <jrib> Noturno99: no, that's not right
[00:34] <Noturno99> so, how I include it in my c, just #include<gtk.h> ??
[00:35] <Noturno99> many errors..
[00:35] <jrib> Noturno99: read the link I gave you
[00:35] <DJCharlie> soundray: united states.
[00:35] <jrib> Noturno99: compile the hello world example there
[00:35] <Noturno99> allright
[00:35] <Noturno99> i'll see
[00:35] <Noturno99> thanks
[00:35] <soundray> DJCharlie: not one of those where you typically have long delays between rings
[00:36] <DJCharlie> soundray: nope.
[00:36] <Jordan_U> SnakDoc: ubuntu-docs ( in launchpad )

[00:38] <Noturno99> guys
[00:38] <MrElendig> mgv1: take a look at opentracker
[00:38] <livebox> hello
[00:38] <ScottNYC> lets say I wanted to install linux and have it as the main OS, nothing else installed. If I needed access to proprietary software like adobe apps, and office, whats the best way to go about it? wine? virtual machine?
[00:38] <randal> hey how do i restart x org in terminal plz help
 thats a program?
[00:38] <MrElendig> mgv1: http://openbittorrent.com/
 will check that - thank you
[00:39] <randal> hey how do i restart x org in terminal plz help
[00:39] <Kagee> ScottNYC: often depends on the app
[00:39] <MrElendig> randal: kill it
[00:39] <jeeves_Moss> how can I find out why my laptop is flaking out?  it seems to be freezing (with lots of disk activity), and when I reboot, I'm getting X11 errors and the GUI fails to load
[00:39] <Buckshot> Koi hindustan se hai kya.
[00:39] <Jordan_U> randal: sudo invoke-rc.d gdm restart
[00:39] <MrElendig> randal: or change the runlevel
[00:39] <soundray> DJCharlie: did your modem come with any bundled software?
[00:39] <ScottNYC> whats the best VM software for linux? whats the name of the application?
[00:40] <ScottNYC> virtual box?
[00:40] <MrElendig> ScottNYC: qemu
[00:40] <ScottNYC> qemu, ok
[00:40] <Buckshot> try mylund
[00:40] <Jordan_U> jeeves_Moss: Have you tried memtest?
[00:40] <jeeves_Moss> Jordan_U, yes.  the extended test came back clean
[00:41] <randal> Jordan_U: thanks i know have a black screen how long does it take to restart
[00:41] <Jordan_U> randal: It shouldn't take more than a few seconds
[00:41] <randal> Jordan_U: great its still black
[00:42] <randal> Jordan_U: do you know how i can get into like failsafe mode or safe mode whatever you call it
[00:42] <soundray> DJCharlie: if it came with its own software, you can possibly find out what initialization strings that software uses, and copy them into the mgetty configuration
[00:42] <Jordan_U> randal: Does this happen every time you boot?
[00:43] <DJCharlie> soundray: unfortunately, it didn't.
[00:43] <m0r0n> Can I recover info from a formatted hard drive?
[00:44] <Nachturnal> yes
[00:44] <Jordan_U> m0r0n: How was it formatted?
[00:44] <MrElendig> m0r0n: depends on how you formated it, and what you did to it afterwards, and what the original filesystem was
[00:44] <randal> Jordan_U: my problem is i have a netbook and installed ubuntu on it. It worked great but when i restarted it after installing updates first restart of the computer my window bars dont show up or desktop bars all i get is my desktop
[00:44] <soundray> DJCharlie: any detailed documentation on its special AT commands?
[00:45] <Nachturnal> In most cases there are programs that will read and recover data from formatted drives, as long as it wasn't a low level format
[00:45] <m0r0n> Jordan_U: Not sure, I put the windows cd in to install onto my other hard drive, I had to reformat and the instalation disk had an option and I used that. It had vista on it before, so I assume NTFS?
[00:45] <randal> Jordan_U: so do you have anyideas
[00:45] <Jordan_U> randal: Ok, do you auto login or do you see the login screen at boot?
[00:46] <Jordan_U> randal: At the login screen look under the sessions menu
[00:46] <randal> Jordan_U: i see the logon screen
[00:46] <Jordan_U> randal: Try "Failsafe Gnome"
[00:47] <Fox> What python editor do you all recommend?
[00:47] <kanyeW_IRQ> oh hey yo, everybody
[00:47] <kanyeW_IRQ> I'm really happy y'all are having uch a good time and all
[00:47] <kanyeW_IRQ> And I'ma let you guys finish
[00:47] <randal> Jordan_U: ya failsafe did help any ideas of what i should do
[00:48] <bazhang> kanyeW_IRQ, did you have a support question
[00:48] <Jordan_U> kanyeW_IRQ: Please stop, this is a support channel
[00:48] <kanyeW_IRQ> but the #C++ channel has one of the best discussions of ALL TIME
[00:48] <randal> Jordan_U: i meant didnt
[00:48] <kanyeW_IRQ> oh
[00:48] <kanyeW_IRQ> right...
[00:48] <m0r0n> Any ideas?
[00:48] <Fox> What python editor do you all recommend?
[00:49] <soundray> Fox: if in doubt, use emacs
[00:49] <nathan7>  Vim.
[00:49] <soundray> nathan7: no, emacs
[00:49] <nathan7> EMACS: Escape Meta Alt Control Shift
[00:50] <iceroot> Fox: the normal one, just type python
[00:50] <Fox> really? I used that years ago, it was weird. Maybe improved
[00:50] <iceroot> Fox: a sorry, you asked for editor not for interprete
[00:50] <soundray> Eight Megabytes And Continually Swapping (from a time when 8MB was a lot :)
[00:50] <Fox> iceroot yea
[00:50] <iceroot> Fox: for editor, of course vi :)
[00:51] <iceroot> Fox: the editor for real men
[00:51] <lstarnes> Fox: vim and emacs are both good editors
[00:51] <DJCharlie> soundray: no ideas?
[00:51] <soundray> DJCharlie: you haven't answered my question
[00:51] <Fox> Thanks yall
[00:52] <DJCharlie> soundray: sorry, i missed it. too many open windows, plus i'm on the air right now. could you repeat it please?
[00:52] <randal> Jordan_U: i i typed in metacity --replace and then gnome panels and i got it all up and running i think my start up script isnt working
[00:52] <soundray> DJCharlie: any detailed documentation on the modem's special AT commands?
[00:53] <Jordan_U> randal: Is compiz set as the default window manager?
[00:53] <frozenfire`> WHee.
[00:53] <frozenfire`> ...darn thing.
[00:53] <DJCharlie> soundray: just what i can find in VOCP's website (http://vocpsystem.com/vgetty_modems.php?mode=component) and it's fairly generic.
[00:53] <randal> Jordan_U: if thats defalt yes how do i get compiz to start whats the comand
[00:53] <soreau> Jordan_U: If you have a graphics card capable of running compiz and your drivers are working then yes
[00:54] <soreau> randal: Try setting Sys>Prefs>Appearance>Visual Effects tab to Extra
[00:54] <randal> Jordan_U: so whats the command to get the compiz thing to restart
[00:54] <cafuego> randal: System > Preferences > Display settings > Effects
[00:54] <Jordan_U> randal: Compiz might be what is causing the problem, try disabling "desktop effects" in System > Preferences > Appearance
[00:54] <soundray> DJCharlie: okay, last suggestion before I give up: the init string may be doing something unintended. Replace it with a generic reset command (ATZ or ATZ0).
[00:55] <soundray> DJCharlie: or maybe AT&F
[00:55] <randal> Jordan_U: it was disabled it was working fine when i had it inabled how do i start up window manage compiz
[00:55] <DJCharlie> soundray: okay, and where would i put that?
[00:55] <ScottNYC> dan, ubuntu is pretty sick
[00:55] <Jordan_U> randal: If you want to start compiz, run "compiz --replace"
[00:56] <soundray> DJCharlie: in the vgetty config file. Don't know where that goes in Ubuntu, but I would look in /etc/mgetty
[00:56] <soundray> DJCharlie: save the original so you can go back easily.
[00:56] <randal> Jordan_U: i cheing for video drviers now and then im gona check me boot up script
[00:56] <DJCharlie> soundray: been through that file, and there's nothing about init strings, unfortunately.
[00:56] <randal> Jordan_U: checking
[00:57] <soundray> DJCharlie: there must be some place that defines all those commands it sends, like "AT+FDCC=1,5,0,2,0,0,0,0"
[00:57] <randal> Jordan_U: i get wobbly windows so i think its working good but why doesent this start up on boot
[00:57] <soreau> randal: Set Sys>Prefs>Appearance>Visual Effects tab to Extra for it to start when you login
[00:58] <DJCharlie> soundray: ok, thanks, i'll go back to digging.
[00:58] <Jordan_U> randal: Some part gnome-session is failing
[00:58] <soundray> DJCharlie: if all else fails, do a 'find /etc -type f -print 0 | xargs -0 grep -l "AT+FDCC"' (could take a while)
[00:58] <SilentJonathan> how do i check what kind of wireless card I have on my laptop
[00:59] <SilentJonathan> i can not find any hardware configuration program or anything
[00:59] <soundray> SilentJonathan: look through the output from lspci and lsusb
[01:00] <randal> Jordan_U: so what should i do
[01:00] <SilentJonathan> thank you
[01:00] <DJCharlie> soundray: find: paths must precede expression: 0
[01:01] <soundray> DJCharlie: sorry, I put a space where there shouldn't be any
[01:01] <Noturno99>  hey,people, how can i see a movie in avi and open a legend in srt?
[01:01] <soundray> DJCharlie: if all else fails, do a 'find /etc -type f -print0 | xargs -0 grep -l "AT+FDCC"' (could take a while)
[01:01] <Jordan_U> randal: Try logging out and logging back in with "xterm" session, then in xterm run gnome-session and look at the errors it prints out
[01:02] <randal> Jordan_U: whats xtern
[01:02] <Jordan_U> randal: It doesn't start anything but a terminal
[01:02] <randal> Jordan_U: when i open torminal i get this error (error creating child process for this terminal)
[01:05] <randal> Jordan_U: ok i added gnome-pannel to start up and compiz it now works but i have nbr and when i log in i dont get the cool nbr thing
[01:05] <burntresistor> hey im trying to add medibuntu to my repositories and im following this guide and it doesnt say where i can get the key  https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Medibuntu
[01:05] <Rods_Tiger> how do I make ubuntu appear on the network so that I can copy files to it?
[01:06] <Jordan_U> randal: Since this happened after an upgrade check if there are any unconfigured packages by running "sudo dpkg --configure -a"
[01:06] <soundray> burntresistor: yeah, it does
[01:06] <soundray> burntresistor: look under "Then, add the GPG Key:"
[01:06] <sy1> Hi Good Morning from Malaysia
[01:06] <randal> Jordan_U: ya that might be it but i reinstalled the comter 3 times and everythime i get this
[01:06] <DJCharlie> soundray: it came back with 0 matches.
[01:06] <tenach> Good morning to you sy1
[01:06] <sy1> I wonder if the message that ubuntu says that it check the harddisk
[01:07] <rlee> hey, anyone know how to block my internal IP address from being placed in the message header?~~~
[01:07] <soundray> DJCharlie: I can't seem to help you at all, sorry
[01:07] <foul_owl> Hey I got a quick and easy question. How do I determine the IP address/log in the wrt54g from the workstation in this network topology? http://img9.imageshack.us/img9/7457/topology.png . I have tried pinging the range 192.168.0.(0-255) but the WRT54g apparently does not respond to pings from the wan port?
[01:07] <sy1> is this normal
[01:07] <Jordan_U> randal: You probably  shouldn't add gnome-panel and compiz again since they should be starting automatically ( and hopefully will again when we solve the root problem )
[01:07] <randal> Jordan_U: but i think i figured something out i went to swtich to nbr mode and it switched i also got an error give me a second to write it out
[01:07] <revygttam> How can i recursively delete all *.jpg files within an images folder with many folders and other extensions within?
[01:07] <sy1> foul i think you are suppose to ping to the lan normal port not the wan port
[01:08] <burntresistor> yeah but im still getting this error : GPG error: http://packages.medibuntu.org jaunty Release: The following signatures couldn't be verified because the public key is not available: NO_PUBKEY 2EBC26B60C5A2783
[01:08] <randal> Jordan_U: An error occurred while loading or saving configuration information for netbook-launcher. some of your configuration settings may not work properly
[01:08] <DJCharlie> soundray: ok, thanks anyway.
[01:08] <sy1> medi needs to get the gpg key then only it will work
[01:08] <ZoeyMarie> can someone help me figure out why a program (audacity, if you know it) is trying to freeze when I do anything?
[01:08] <soundray> revygttam: find /path/to/folder -name '*.jpg' -print0 | xargs -0 rm
[01:09] <burntresistor> when i entered the key under then add gpg key i got this enter
[01:09] <randal> Jordan_U: when i switched to nbr gnome panel never started up
[01:09] <jg> quit
[01:09] <sy1> Zoey check your memory
[01:09] <burntresistor> error*
[01:09] <ZoeyMarie> I have 2g of memory.
[01:09] <sy1> zoey are you using windows?
[01:09] <ZoeyMarie> unless there is another check I should do.
[01:09] <sy1> yes there is
[01:09] <Jordan_U> randal: Is this a fresh install?
[01:09] <ZoeyMarie> nope. Ubuntu/Ubuntu studio (I am dual booting though)
[01:09] <sy1> it is called a stress
[01:09] <sy1> test
[01:09] <randal> Jordan_U: yes
[01:10] <randal> Jordan_U:  i got the error agian
[01:10] <ZoeyMarie> stress, huh? how do I test it?
[01:10] <sy1> ok do you know how to use google
[01:10] <foul_owl> I can't change any of the network topology though. I dont have access to it
[01:10] <ZoeyMarie> :p
[01:10] <mdalek> helllo can anyone help, we are trying to recover files from a failed hard drive on a ubuntu livecd
[01:10] <sy1> zoey you have to find a software for memory testing
[01:10] <mdalek> the filesystem is intact
[01:10] <Jordan_U> ZoeyMarie: Reboot and choose "memtest86" from the menu that comes up at boot, let it run for a few hours to be certain
[01:10] <sy1> yes
[01:11] <mdalek> but its a silly error, its saying we have no permissions to access the files on the mounted volume
[01:11] <soundray> mdalek: try with sudo
[01:11] <mdalek> is there a way of squashing the permissions on mount
[01:11] <ZoeyMarie> I don't think it's memory... I think it's something to do with the audio stuff (since it's an audio program, and I've been having problems with audio) most programs (even heavy duty ones) are completely fine.
[01:11] <mdalek> we tried sudo cp
[01:11] <sy1> mdalek unless you use a non password situation
[01:11] <nomic> anyone know please i'm on ubuntu live cd and i cannot see /dev/hda
[01:11] <randal> Jordan_U: so i did the commad you told me to do it did nothing
[01:12] <sy1> what sound card are you using ?
[01:12] <sy1> zoey ?
[01:12] <soundray> mdalek: and?
[01:12] <Jordan_U> randal: Then that's not the problem
[01:12] <mdalek> sy1, can you please elaborate
[01:12] <ZoeyMarie> I have no idea, honestly... how do I check?
[01:12] <Lyerae> raaargh Ubuntu is killing me
[01:12] <sy1> zoey you can also try using oca.microsoft.com/en/windiag.asp
[01:12] <mdalek> soundray, it still says no permissions
[01:12] <ZoeyMarie> what's that?
[01:12] <randal> Jordan_U: what should i do next
[01:13] <Lyerae> Can anyone tell me why it won't let me turn on the extra graphics settings on a new install, where on the old install it let me?
[01:13] <Rods_Tiger> I've enabled 'shares-admin' and it's installed samba but so far I can't see it on the network
[01:13] <mdalek> soundray, we tried chown too :(
[01:13] <randal> Jordan_U: did you want me to run xclient script
[01:13] <sy1> mdalek you should not have a problem with ubuntu access the harddisk unless the harddisk have a problem with the files
[01:13] <aleron6> can anybody help me
[01:13] <soundray> mdalek: have you done a 'sudo ls -l'?
[01:13] <sy1> mdalek please get a windows to do a harddisk check first
[01:13] <sy1> is that hdd on ntfs ?
[01:13] <mdalek> sy1, its ext3
[01:13] <Jordan_U> randal: Can you pastebin the output of "dmesg"
[01:13] <sy1> ouch
[01:14] <Lyerae> Hello?
[01:14] <sy1> ok meaning you have to check the harddisk for problem first
[01:14] <mdalek> soundray, no i havent had access to the drive, im going on site tomorrow
[01:14] <Rods_Tiger> if I share the user directory, where is the configuration file that tells it that that's what to do?
[01:14] <mdalek> sy1, a fsck was run
[01:14] <sy1> ok
[01:14] <Jordan_U> mdalek: What are you trying to copy to? Is it mounted rw?
[01:14] <nomic> ok figured it ty back can only examine/dev/hda as root
[01:15] <mdalek> Jordan_U, yes i believe so
[01:15] <randal> Jordan_U: when i typed that code in it did nothing just went down a line
[01:15] <mdalek> I'm going on site tomorrow to fix this and its very important files :(
[01:15] <mdalek> just trying to think of alternate solutions
[01:16] <Rods_Tiger> there's no /etc/conf.d in ubuntu's /etc - is everything just scattered about willy-nilly?
[01:16] <Jordan_U> randal: If you mean dpkg --configure -a, that's what it does when there is no problem
[01:16] <Lyerae> Can anyone please help? I just had to reinstall ubuntu, and nothing is working, when it used to...

[01:25] <burntresistor> where can i get libavcodec1d its not in repositories i need it for fuppes
[01:25] <scottclin> Lyra: Everything there seems to be right you should as normal user be able to mount that
[01:25] <Rods_Tiger> I have no idea where the config files for anything are in ubuntu - where's the settings I gave it in the gui to set up my home folder for sharing?
[01:25] <lstarnes> !medibuntu | burntresistor

[01:31] <abcdefg> I don't want security risks.
[01:31] <BingO> HIi room !!
[01:32] <lstarnes> abcdefg: yes
[01:32] <BingO> want to test one thing any one will hpe me..
[01:32] <BingO> www.red5chat.com... open it and download its zip file
[01:32] <ring0> does gnome-terminal log the scrollback in a file somewhere by default?
[01:32] <BingO> i need to install it..
[01:32] <lstarnes> ring0: I don't think so
[01:32] <abcdefg> Because ubuntu don't so any ensurance about his software, as does windows.
[01:33] <abcdefg> So if somethings goes wrong I couldn't complain.
[01:33] <abcdefg> And inside a VM is safer.\
[01:33] <BingO> red5chat.com.. any one will go there ??? i am installing it on ubuntu
[01:33] <abcdefg> isn't it?\
[01:33] <BingO> it is saying strange in install.txt file..
[01:33] <ring0> lstarnes, thanks
[01:33] <SuperMiguel> if i have a dual boot system... Linux+Windows and im using an external drive to share files between the 2 is my best option to format that drive to use NTFS?
[01:34] <lstarnes> BingO: did you extract it?
[01:34] <SuperMiguel> or FAT32?
[01:35] <hassanakevazir> hello, I'm trying to install miro, but it wants to remove my nvidia 190 beta drivers before installation. Is there anyway I can force it not to?
[01:35] <lstarnes> BingO: the instructions in the install.txt should work
[01:36] <burntresistor> i still cant find libavcodec  i tired libavcodec-unstripped-53 didnt seem to solve the problem
[01:36] <burntresistor> its not in medibuntu
[01:37] <jason> what is the best firewall?
[01:37] <lstarnes> burntresistor: did you also try libavcodec52
[01:37] <lstarnes> burntresistor: it should be 52, not 53
[01:37] <lstarnes> burntresistor: if you're using jaunty
[01:38] <jason_> what is the best firewall
[01:39] <scottclin> Unplugging your lan cable?
[01:39] <lstarnes> jason_: ubuntu comes with iptables and ufw by default
[01:39] <jason_> lol
[01:39] <jason_> what about firestarter
[01:39] <lstarnes> jason_: there are various graphical configuration frontends for them like gufw and firestarter
[01:40] <lstarnes> jason_: firestarter is a graphical frontend to iptables
[01:40] <jason_> is it a good one
[01:40] <atealtha> I have the open source radeon driver installed but I am not getting 1600x1200 resolution as an option. Before I reinstalled, this was available. am I forgetting something?
[01:40] <jason_> easily managed
[01:40] <lstarnes> jason_: I usually use iptables directly and I haven't tried firestarter
[01:40] <jason_> i am a 6 month old noob
[01:41] <pauljw> jason_: i like firestarter
[01:41] <jason_> not ready to go  non gui
[01:41] <michael1> I have a hard drive that isn't recognized by any computer. What do I do?
[01:41] <NoReflex> Hello everyone! What do you think about the lack of a filesystem with transparent compression on Linux? NTFS has transparent compression since it's been introduced about 15 years ago. Reiser4 and btrfs will include transparent compression but aren't finished. ZFS has some licensing incompatibilities. I thought ext4 would support transparent compression.
[01:41] <burntresistor> the fuppes deb i have is still saying its missing the depentency libavcodec1d  after installing  libavcodec52
[01:41] <jason_> ty all
[01:41] <server7> Hi everyone, My ISP has blocked port 80,I tried to  make apache listen to different port, but Mythweb and Rapache stopped working. What is the best way to solve this problem .Thank you.
[01:42] <lstarnes> burntresistor: that package might not be compatible with what ubuntu has
[01:42] <lstarnes> server7: reconfigure mythweb and rapache to use the new port
[01:47] <michael1> My external hard drive isn't being seen on any computer. What can I do
[01:47] <michael1> ?
[01:48] <jcapinc> I have an LG voyager, LG LX10000, and I install bitpim so I could try to sync calendars, but when I go to do it it says directory access is restricted, is there a fix for this/way around it?
[01:48] <server7> Lstarnes, I couldn't find the right folder for Rapche to adjust the port, I looked in "/usr/bin/rapache" ,"/usr/lib/rapache" and "/usr/share/rapache" with no luck, where can I find it????
[01:48] <danbhfive> michael1: is it a usb drive?
[01:48] <michael1> yes
[01:48] <lstarnes> server7: check its documentation
[01:49] <lstarnes> server7: I honestly do not know anything about configuring rapache or mythweb
[01:50] <Shadowwoelf> Hi
[01:51] <abcdefg> JediMaster: I don't like you.
[01:51] <IdleOne> !ot | abcdefg
[01:51] <JediMaster> how do you delete a file named "-vf" from the command line? I've tried rm "-vf", rm '-vf', rm \-vf, rm "\-vf" and none of those work lol
[01:51] <lstarnes> JediMaster: rm -- -vf
[01:51]  * JediMaster slaps abcdefg around with some alphabet spaghetti
[01:52] <JediMaster> what does the -- do?
[01:52] <server7> Lstarnes, I even used " whereis Rapche".. I noticed a lots changes in my Directory since I upgrade my Kernel to  "<IP_ADDRESS>" Could that be the problem?? Does the Kernel move Folders and Directories around??
[01:52] <IdleOne> JediMaster probably escapes the -
[01:52] <lstarnes> JediMaster: it makes anything starting with a - after it not be read as a flag
[01:52] <Ekushey> Happy Software Freedom Day everyone!
[01:52] <lstarnes> server7: the kernel doesn't usually move things on its own
[01:53] <iceroot> server7: no, the kernel is not the reason for that
[01:53] <JediMaster> lstarnes: thanks, that works, been using linux for 10+ years and never figured that one out ;-)
[01:53] <lstarnes> server7: what about locate -i rapache?
[01:54] <JediMaster> lstarnes: is that a bash syntax as apposed to rm?
[01:54] <Jordan_U> JediMaster: That works with pretty much any command as well, -- means there are no more flags
[01:54] <lstarnes> JediMaster: no, that's rm using the getopt library
[01:55] <lstarnes> JediMaster: most GNU userland utilities understand it
[01:55] <JediMaster> Jordan_U: I presume commands that use the getopt library then?
[01:55] <JediMaster> thanks guys
[01:55] <lstarnes> some programs might not understand it
[01:55] <Jordan_U> JediMaster: Yes
[01:55] <server7> That what I taught, but after my upgrade I noticed that my "httpd" is completely empty and everything was moved to "apache2.conf"!!!! my system wasn't affected at all!!
[01:58] <papashou> does apt-get have a pacman -Ss equivalent ?
[01:58] <server7> LStarnes, thank you..I see new location for Rapache, let me check them out. I will get back to you. Thank you again..
[01:58] <lstarnes> papashou: what does that do?
[01:58] <papashou> search package name in archlinux
[01:59] <lstarnes> papashou: aptitude search packagename
[01:59] <zhoujingrui> how do i though GFW under firefox?
[01:59] <IdleOne> or apt-cache search package-name
[01:59] <lstarnes> papashou: or apt-cache search packagename
[01:59] <papashou> what is the difference between aptitude and apt-get ?
[01:59] <lstarnes> papashou: aptitude has more features and also has an interactive ncurses interface
[02:00] <coolcat> coolcat, looking for a kitty

[02:17] <ScottNYC> unistall or install
[02:17] <McLinux> install
[02:17] <McLinux> i'm assuming
[02:17] <ScottNYC> install = -i
[02:17] <ScottNYC> so i type -i at next prompt
[02:17] <McLinux> so .. do "sudo sh install -i"
[02:18] <Chank> andy____: try using KPDF
[02:18] <atealtha> McLinux: 1600x1200. I get 1024x768

[02:19] <McLinux> i am not sure.. it depends on whether you're using autodetection or a static xorg.conf
[02:19] <Jordan_U> ring0: No
[02:19] <maxstirner1> can't find anything on this, i got a 2tb WD mybook and it only gets mounted as 1tb on ubuntu.. any ideas?
[02:19] <atealtha> McLinux: I'd like everything to be automatically done. It was before, the only change is hard drives
[02:19] <ring0> Jordan_U, ok, thanks anyways
[02:19] <andy____> Chank, thanks for the tip. I already have adobe acrobat so it's not strictly a problem. But I love to tinker which is why I am asking how to change Evince's background..
[02:20] <McLinux> Have you tried moving the ati drivers (both oss and proprietary) completely?
[02:20] <McLinux> moving=removing
[02:20] <McLinux> it should fallback on vesa or some default display
[02:20] <ScottNYC> ya i have a # in terminal and i guess im supposed to type some thing here lo
[02:20] <atealtha> no. should I just add it in the blacklist?
[02:20] <Chank> andy____: i dont believe you can
[02:20] <mostafa_> Jordan_U: I ask this "can anyone help me I get this error when i want to transfer a file via bluetooth?"
[02:20] <mostafa_> this is the error "Couldn't execute command: nautilus --no-default-window "obex://[00:1F:00:BA:0E:8F]""
[02:21] <Jordan_U> ScottNYC: type exit
[02:21] <Jordan_U> ScottNYC: then run "sudo -- sh install -i"
[02:21] <atealtha> McLinux: my xorg has only the screen info, nothing else... ??
[02:22] <andy____> Thanks for the feedback. Changing the background of Evince is something to play around with MUCH later! Best just get back to the commandline mastery. Cheers!
[02:22] <GLG> join #ubuntu-offtopic
[02:22] <McLinux> try "sudo dpkg-recofingure -phigh xserver-xorg"
[02:22] <McLinux> er
[02:22] <Chank> andy____: have a nice night
[02:22] <McLinux> "sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg"?
[02:22] <atealtha> one sec
[02:22] <drknezz> Hi!, Why i have Shiretoko instead of Firefox?
[02:23] <ScottNYC> i think im typing it wring or something command not found
[02:23] <McLinux> cuz mozilla sucks.
[02:23] <maxstirner1> can't find anything on this, i got a 2tb WD mybook and it only gets mounted as 1tb on ubuntu.. seems the RAID is not getting recognised?
[02:23] <Korax> I was wondering if someone could help me with preseed partitioning. I put a message up on http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1269334
[02:23] <ScottNYC> sudo--sh install -i
[02:23] <drknezz> McLinux, positive feedback only, please
[02:23] <Jordan_U> drknezz: Firefox 3.5 is unbranded in Jaunty, firefox 3.0 is still called Firefox
[02:23] <andy____> Thanks Chank. I should go to bed now. I'm in England and it's early in the morning! Good night everybody..
[02:23] <McLinux> yeah i was giong to apologize, drknezz
[02:23] <Biovore> maxstirner1: software raid.. requires 3rd parity propritary driver..  I don't think they make a driver for linux for that thing..
[02:23] <drknezz> Jordan_U, So, technically, you can only have FF 3.5 with Ubuntuzilla?
[02:23] <drknezz> McLinux, Ok, thanks
[02:23] <McLinux> because there is not an official firefox release 3.5 for linux
[02:24] <atealtha> it says -e and -r conflict
[02:24] <McLinux> shiretoko is the nightly build or something
[02:24] <atealtha> McLinux: ^
[02:24] <atealtha> shiretoko is the new gecko engine I think
[02:24] <drknezz> McLinux, Shiretoko, AFAIK, is like MineField for Linux
[02:24] <Jordan_U> McLinux: Yes there is, they are always released concurrently
[02:24] <maxstirner1> Biovore: thanks.. i actually just pciked up its RAID1 by deafult have to switch to RAID0 without duplication using windows software..
[02:25] <Jordan_U> shiretoko is a park in Japan, it's just a name that's not trademarked
[02:25] <maxstirner1> Biovore: http://www.brighthub.com/computing/hardware/reviews/28746.aspx just in case it pops up
[02:25] <craig> c u later guys thanks
[02:25] <RADD> hi
[02:26] <atealtha> McLinux: -reconfigure complained about conflicting flags, you sure that is the command?
[02:26] <ScottNYC> got it
[02:26] <drknezz> Jordan_U, Ok, thanks for help, i may compile the Qt version of FF in these days
[02:26] <ScottNYC> cd /media/cdrom
[02:26] <ScottNYC> sudo sh ./install
[02:27] <vock> Hello: I tried to install a GTK theme, it said it was missing a gtk2 engine, and wouldn't work properly, so I deleted the theme and installed the missing engine, but now when I try and reinstall the theme I get Installation failed, Can't move directory over directory.
[02:27] <Jordan_U> atealtha: the command is dpkg-reconfigure, -reconfigureis not a flag for dpkg
[02:27] <atealtha> Jordan_U: thanks
[02:27] <Jordan_U> atealtha: np

[02:28] <najevi> How do you query the on/off state of a wireless NIC when there is no hardware LED and the switch is a Fn+F2 keyboard shortcut (i.e. soft-switch) rather than a two position physical switch?
[02:28] <aj_444> randal: Please type your question out and use proper grammar. It helps people to understand what you're asking.
[02:29] <Imaginativeone> anyone good with algorithms?
[02:29] <soreau> randal: What happens if you set System>Preferences>Appearance>Visual Effects tab to Extra?
[02:29] <vock> nm, thanks all found it
[02:29] <Jordan_U> najevi: There may be a better way but often there is an entry in /proc
[02:29] <randal> soreau: It enables graphics and works perfect
[02:30] <_pip> hello!
[02:30] <soreau> randal: And when you restart is it still set on extra?
[02:30] <papachungo13> When my system is starting (before GUI) I see a status line "Starting Firestarter Firewall" and the result is a FAIL, but in GUI mode it appears that firestarter is active..anyway I can find out why it fails in the text mode portion of the startup?
[02:30] <randal> soreau:no well i dont think so.
[02:31] <gwallace> Hello all.
[02:31] <gwallace> Been trying to figure out why I can't get Network Manager running.  The Icon was missing from my panel when I turned my laptop on this morning.
[02:31] <gwallace> When I try to start it through terminal, I get two error messages.
[02:31] <trojan_condom> hi
[02:32] <callum__> hi does anyone here know how to get those theme/s "exotic and tropical" and wheat etc
[02:32] <randal> soreau: i dont understand why these dont start on boot if i go into startup applications and add these two programs they boot up fine
[02:32] <callum__> They were like really nice themes for ubuntu
[02:32] <chingus> Callum_, themes for what?
[02:32] <Jordan_U> gwallace: What happens when you run "nm-applet" in a terminal?
[02:32] <chingus> callum__, themes for what?
[02:32] <callum__> themes for ubuntu - 9.04
[02:32] <trojan_condom> Is there really, going to be a speed difference in 64 bit to 32 bit?
[02:32] <callum__> they are special ones though,
[02:32] <chingus> trojan_condom, absolutely
[02:32] <soreau> randal: Have you been running as root or run any programs with sudo?
[02:32] <callum__> They come with login windows etc
[02:32] <gwallace> I get two errors. error 1, could not acquire sesion service and second is can't initialize d-bus
[02:32] <papachungo13> When my system is starting (before GUI) I see a status line "Starting Firestarter Firewall" and the result is a FAIL, but in GUI mode it appears that firestarter is active..can I find out why it fails in the text mode portion of the startup?
[02:32] <trojan_condom> chingus, OK. like how much?
[02:33] <callum__> they are named "exotic, tropical, wheat or something like that - - -
[02:33] <randal> soreau: sorry i dont understand your question
[02:33] <callum__> You do commands like sudo apt-get install theme tropical-- or something
[02:33] <gwallace> Jordan_U:I get two errors. error 1, could not acquire sesion service and second is can't initialize d-bus
[02:33] <najevi> Jordan_U - thanks. I just grep'd /proc looking for "wireless" - several hits but none that also mention switch - I did find /pproc/kallsyms has ipw2100_switch_mode
[02:33] <chingus> trojan_condom, if you are hacking it will help you get the job done faster in terms of reverse tracking / forensics...I don't think there is not much practical difference but to be really finicky yes there is a difference.
[02:34] <_pip> so. hello again! i have some problem with my new ubuntu installation. it's pretty weird, and no idea what can be the problem: network configuration was fully automatic, and works fine... however, browser is timeout when i want to use some google service (google.com timeouts too). ping is OK, but traceroute gives several 'no reply' rows. Any idea where to serch for the solution? Thanks!
 Callum_, themes for what? <--- What?
[02:34] <soreau> randal: Does 'ps ax|grep gnome|grep daemon' show any output?
[02:34] <ScottNYC> thats wierd, after installing parallels tools, it reboots, and coherence still isnt available and the screen view is still tiny and not adjusting with the window
[02:34] <Jordan_U> najevi: Look for "rfkill"
[02:34] <Callum_> ._. oh god not again
[02:34] <chingus> Callum_, got you confused with callum__
[02:34] <najevi> roger wilco
[02:34] <callum__> omg... hi
[02:34] <callum__> :)
[02:34] <Callum_> its my evil twin =P
[02:35] <callum__> no i thought i was the gay one
[02:35] <Callum_> lol
[02:35] <trojan_condom>  /kick Callum_
[02:35] <randal> soreau:  do i type that in terminal and i am doing another fresh install its 96% done
[02:35] <soreau> randal: If you're doing a clean install, why are you worried about your old problem?
[02:36] <Callum_> ow
[02:36] <blafard> i have an  hfsplus drive that mounts read-only.  I understand that this may be because it has journaling enabled.  How can i determine whether or not the drive has journaling enabled?
[02:36] <soreau> randal: My best guess is something in $HOME got messed up, either permissions or otherwise
[02:36] <randal> soreau: the first time i start a fresh install everything works fine its when i restart it it doesent boot properly
[02:36] <nix-idioteque> Callum_ hey there mister, freedom of speech doesn't fly around here
[02:36] <Callum_> oh really?
[02:36] <randal> soreau: how would something get messed up when its a fresh install absolutely nothing done to it
[02:37] <papachungo13> When my system is starting (before GUI) I see a status line "Starting Firestarter Firewall" and the result is a FAIL, but in GUI mode it appears that firestarter is active..can I find out why it fails in the text mode portion of the startup? Should I be concerned?
[02:37] <soreau> randal: I have no idea. If it is in fact a clean install, no telling what's going on. File a bug report
[02:37]  * callum__ cries
[02:37]  * callum__ needs hugs
[02:37] <DJCharlie> evening all. i have found my vgetty problem, but i have no idea how to fix it.
[02:38] <callum__> !theme
[02:38] <callum__> Ok thanks x
[02:38] <gwallace> Jordan_U, sorry, got disconnected.  I'm back
[02:38] <DJCharlie> basically, i need to set "AT+FCLASS=8". easy enough, but then something else is overriding that with oter at commands, as seen here: http://pastebin.com/d19838327
[02:38] <DJCharlie> any ideas on how to stop that?
[02:38] <randal> soreau:  but the werid thing is many ple with the same laptop as me works fine for them
[02:39] <Jordan_U> gwallace: What happens when you run "nm-applet" in a terminal?
[02:39] <hugo> hi
[02:39] <randal> soreau:  could it be a download error with the iso that i put onto my usb
[02:39] <hugo> hi 2 all
[02:39] <gwallace> Jordan_U:I get two errors. error 1, could not acquire sesion service and second is can't initialize d-bus
[02:39] <soreau> randal: It could be anything really. bad memory, hard disc faulty. no telling what would cause such a strange issue for you
[02:40] <randal> soreau: ya its realy angervateing windows xp works fine tho so i dont think its a hardware problem
[02:41] <PerryArmstrong> hey can anyone tell me how to install kde
[02:41] <papachungo13> am I in the wrong forum for my question?
[02:41] <callum__> HERE Noobs I found these themes http://webupd8.blogspot.com/2009/05/9-great-gnome-themes-with-ubuntu.html
[02:41] <randal> soreau:  where do i go to see the startup script
[02:41] <callum__> I suggest you all get them ^
[02:41] <gwallace> PerryArmstrong: Run Synaptic, search for KDE and it will list all the programs needed to install the desktop
[02:41] <Korax> I was wondering if someone could help me with preseed partitioning. I put a message up on http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1269334
[02:41] <islington> PerryArmstrong: just kde or kubuntu as well?
[02:42] <losher> papachungo13: tried http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=542756
[02:42] <papachungo13> thanks
[02:42] <fuzzy_> I got a noob question/problem
[02:42] <papachungo13> thanks losher
[02:42] <callum__> Oh I can Help with Noob questions
[02:42] <PerryArmstrong> islington; i just saw a magazine at college saying about kde 4.2 features and i want to install it.. Also i want to use my gnome desktop at times when i need it
[02:42] <callum__> fuzzy_ what is it
[02:42] <fuzzy_> sweet
[02:43] <thomas__> i'm having trouble getting my wifi to work on my acer aspire one...i followed the documentation but i'm stuck at the make part
[02:43] <fuzzy_> running ubuntu and tring to change runlevel
[02:43] <thomas__> i'm getting error: Makefile.inc:1: *** missing separator.  Stop.
[02:43] <gwallace> PerryArmstrong:  If you install KDE from synaptic, it will allow you to install it and choose at launch which desktop you want to use
[02:43] <callum__> thomas_ there is your problem it's a acer "aspire one" netbook/gimmick.
[02:43] <callum__> thomas_ you may need to buy a netbook.
[02:43] <randal> soreau: ok i just figured something out i think with the fresh install i can restart it fine and it works properly but when i change to clasic mode(not nbr) it messes things up
[02:43] <islington> PerryArmstrong: I would install kdebase
[02:43] <soreau> randal: I really don't know exactly how ubuntu has gnome configured to start everything. AFAIK, they launch a daemon that's supposed to take care of everything on startup
[02:43] <PerryArmstrong> gwallace; okk...
[02:44] <PerryArmstrong> islington; whats kdebase
[02:44] <soreau> randal: What is nbr?
[02:44] <soreau> ! nbr
[02:44] <islington> PerryArmstrong: just the core componenets of kde
[02:44] <callum__> ! nbr is a pile of crap
[02:44] <randal> soreau: netbook remix
[02:44] <callum__> GLitches in full desktop mode do not use it.
[02:44] <thomas__> Callum_, so no help there lol?
[02:44] <fuzzy_> ive changed telinit in the script to 3 then reboot but it goof on reboot
[02:44] <vock> Hello again: I just copied a theme folder (from gnome looks) to the .emerald/themes/ directory, but it's not showing up in the Emerald Theme Manager, is there another way to import a theme?
[02:44] <soreau> randal: That's probably your whole problem. You said it was a completely clean default install which it isn't with nbr
[02:44] <fuzzy_> what am i doing wrong
[02:44] <PerryArmstrong> islington; will that give me all that's there in kde
[02:44] <thomas__> its true i know.....but i have it....
[02:45] <thomas__> should i not use ubuntu on it?
[02:45] <nix-idioteque> vock: simply go to customize
[02:45] <randal> soreau: its a clean nbr install
[02:45] <_pip> aaa... what can cause, that some addresses works fine with traceroute, some wont? (eg. bing.com: OK, google.com: many 'no reply' rows?
[02:45] <islington> PerryArmstrong: just the desktop right? not any of the applications?
[02:45] <nix-idioteque> vock: then you find emerald - whatever for your windows, borders, etc
[02:45] <randal> soreau: nbr comes built in
[02:45] <soreau> randal: That's not what you said at first. Anyway, that's most likely your problem
[02:45] <callum__> thomas_ Ubuntu is a well umm I won't comment x
[02:45] <PerryArmstrong> islington; whats the difference with the applications??
[02:46] <randal> soreau: sorry but im confused why this is not a clean install
 Callum_, so no help there lol? <--- not for me =P
[02:46] <nix-idioteque> vock: also, http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=535869
[02:46] <islington> PerryArmstrong: okay well in a nutshell, all the apps you use currently terminal, nautilus... are all written in gtk
[02:46] <soreau> randal: I don't know anything about nbr, but it is your most likely culprit
[02:46] <nix-idioteque> vock: just in case
[02:46] <PerryArmstrong> islington; yes
[02:47] <bro> what command should i use to find out what version of ati driver ubuntu installed via "hardware drivers" ? fglrxinfo | grep 'version' returns "OpenGL version 2.1.8575" on Jaunty, which is odd because the last drivers released by ati are 9.*
[02:47] <islington> PerryArmstrong: together with gnome you have your basic desktop environment
[02:47] <islington> PerryArmstrong: installing kde you have a couple of options
[02:47] <randal> soreau: well thanks for your help ill try a couple things and if i cant get it to work i will install ubuntu without nbr
[02:47] <McLinux> atealtha, did that get resolved ?
[02:47] <islington> PerryArmstrong:  just kde (no file mangager/ no other apps
[02:47] <vock> nix-idioteque, thanks a bunch
[02:48] <islington> PerryArmstrong: kde with qt apps
[02:48] <atealtha> McLinux: nope it left me with a barer xorg.conf
[02:48] <islington> PerryArmstrong: or the whole kubuntu Desktop
[02:48] <PerryArmstrong> islington; qt apps?
[02:48] <atealtha> I'm so frustrated I'm about to install debian lenny to see if this works
[02:48] <nix-idioteque> vock: you rock that desktop, homie.
[02:48] <McLinux> well that is frustrating
[02:48] <McLinux> it worked before ?
[02:48] <Korax> randal: there is an menu item in preferences (near the bottom, forget what its called) to toggle between nbr desktop and normal. does that help?
[02:49] <atealtha> McLinux: I've been running ubuntu 9.04 fine since it came out
[02:49] <nix-idioteque> atealtha: Windows 98 is far more superior
[02:49] <atealtha> the only thing that changed is the hard drive
[02:49] <McLinux> and then you changed harddrive ?
[02:49] <islington> PerryArmstrong: apps that are similar in function but writting in qt. (konsole=terminal, dolphin=nautilus) the will fit more seemlessly in kde
[02:49] <McLinux> did you restore it from an image, etc ?
[02:49] <islington> *written
[02:49] <atealtha> McLinux: no
[02:49] <atealtha> but I didn't think I had to
[02:49] <atealtha> I've been using the restricted drivers fine
[02:49] <DJCharlie> can someone help me figute out where these extra init strings are coming from in my vgetty installation please? log output is here: http://pastebin.com/d19838327
[02:49] <McLinux> straight hdd copy?
[02:50] <atealtha> McLinux: new HDD install with software RAID (like before but smaller capacity)
[02:50] <atealtha> all my files are backed up somewhere else
[02:50] <islington> PerryArmstrong: gtk apps will look rather out of place because they follow gnome theme instructions, qt apps follow kde themeing instructions
[02:50] <islington> PerryArmstrong: a really simplified way of looking at it
[02:52] <randal> Korax: sorr but no
[02:52] <McLinux> if they're all backed up, i'd say re-install.. short of removing your drivers completely and reinstalling, i am not sure.. unless someone else here has something better to suggest.  i would almost imagine that it'd work "out of the box"
[02:52] <randal> soreau: so i think i might of found another thing as soon as i enable the graphics card this start to act up
[02:53] <atealtha> McLinux: that's what I've been doing the past two days
[02:53] <fuzzy_> Who knows about rc-default script?
[02:53] <quentusrex> Anyone know how to use wget to specify a destination folder?
[02:53] <atealtha> it's like I'm using a competely different distro
[02:53] <firestorm> Howdy. I want to keep my system at karmic but upgrade my mythtv packages to be karmic. How can I do that?
[02:53] <physic> i have some probloum about apache can be fix here?
[02:53] <Pavlz> hello ninux.org registered a new ML for the italian ninuxday<EMAIL_ADDRESS>[02:53] <McLinux> atealtha, not to bag on ubuntu at all, but at times like these, i prefer archlinux.. it is much more straightforward
[02:53] <McLinux> and easier to debug
[02:54] <atealtha> heh
[02:54] <soreau> randal: Are you absolutely sure compiz isn't starting? If you try to click where the panel is supposed to be, does it show up?
[02:54] <atealtha> well I'm giving lenny a shot
[02:54] <firestorm> Alternatively, on my karmic system, how can I downgrade my mythtv packages so that they are jaunty?
[02:54] <atealtha> I'll keep that in mind though
[02:54] <McLinux> only if you love lenny
[02:54] <randal> soreau:  yes it is untill i restart the computer then compiz doesent start at all
[02:54] <McLinux> debian is a great platform tho
[02:54] <McLinux> a little bloated for my tastes but still good
[02:54] <atealtha> I've been using debian for a long time
[02:54] <islington> firestorm: mythtv is installed through repos?
[02:55] <firestorm> islington: yes it is
[02:55] <randal> soreau: if i click where the panel is oposed to be it comes up but after i restart compiz doesent even start
[02:55] <geophysics> hi. how can i connect to my brothers computer?  he is using ubuntu too
[02:55] <islington> firestorm: fire up synaptic
[02:55] <bro> what command should i use to find out what version of ati driver ubuntu installed via "hardware drivers" ? fglrxinfo | grep 'version' returns "OpenGL version 2.1.8575" on Jaunty, which is odd because the last drivers released by ati are 9.8
[02:55] <islington> firestorm: lets try something
[02:56] <Korax> geophysics: To share files?
[02:56] <islington> firestorm: search for the mythtv packages
[02:56] <firestorm> islington: firstly, should I be downgrading on my frontend on karmic to be jaunty .... or should I be trying to upgrade my backend on jaunty to be karmic?
[02:56] <geophysics> Korax: yes
[02:56] <randal> soreau: what i am thinking is nbr mode does not like graphics enable but when i am in clasic mode graphics works flawlessly
[02:56] <McLinux> mandrake->redhat->debian->gentoo-> ( ubuntu<->archlinux )
[02:56] <soreau> randal: I think you're probably not realizing it but compiz is starting and causing your panel to disappear at first
[02:56] <McLinux> that's my genealogy
[02:56] <Korax> geophysics: cifs shares are the easiest to setup. Just right click a folder and click Sharing Options
[02:56] <soreau> randal: What makes you think compiz isn't starting?
[02:56] <islington> FIrestorm: possibly to you try one, and it it doesnt work , try the other?
[02:57] <firestorm> islington: ok ... which should I try first u think?
[02:57] <McLinux> i tried like 5 distros when i started
[02:57] <PerryArmstrong> islington; ther?
[02:57] <islington> PerryArmstrong: yes
[02:57] <fuzzy_> How can I change default runlevel to start without GUI?
[02:57] <McLinux> mandrake was the only one that could autoconfigure my ethernet connection
[02:57] <PerryArmstrong> islington; sorry i had to restart my system
[02:57] <islington> firestorm: downgrade
[02:57] <randal> when i restart the computer the only thing i see is the desktop piture and no window boraders but when i go into terminal and type compiz --replace it starts up
[02:57] <islington> PerryArmstrong: np
[02:57] <PerryArmstrong> islington; so can you continue
[02:58] <firestorm> islington: ok ... got synaptic myth packages shown on my karmic system
[02:58] <islington> PerryArmstrong: gtk apps will look rather out of place because they follow gnome theme instructions, qt apps follow kde themeing instructions
[02:58] <islington> PerryArmstrong: a really simplified way of looking at it
[02:58] <geophysics> Korax: ok im downloading a package, thank you
[02:58] <vock> I just installed a package called gtk2-engines-ubuntulooks, and it's asking me to uninstall ubuntu-desktop, will I lose my desktop GUI environment and get stuck with a console on reboot?
[02:58] <islington> alright firestorm, select the package you want to downgrade
[02:58] <soreau> randal: Try this: Instead of typing compiz --replace, instead do 'ps ax|grep compiz' and pastebin the output to pastebin.com
[02:59] <najevi> What tools/methods do I use to query/monitor state changes related to rfkill ?
[02:59] <islington> firestorm: package>>force version
[02:59] <PerryArmstrong> islington; so you mean kde apps are better when compared to gnome apps
[02:59] <Korax> geophysics: np. If you are just on a local network, enabling Guest access is the easiest
[02:59] <physic> please any one can help meeeee
[02:59] <chingus> where does wget usually save files to?
[03:00] <chingus> physic, whats the problem?
[03:00] <randal> soreau: ok im still havent restarted since i did the fresh install it will take me a second i just put ubuntu tweak on the computer to see the start up and i dont see gnome-panel or compiz in it
[03:00] <Dein> chingus: home folder
[03:00] <firestorm> islington: force version is greyed out
[03:00] <physic> with installing apache
[03:00] <chingus> Dein, thanks
[03:00] <ScottNYC> man this is killing me
[03:00] <islington> PerryArmstrong: subjective, historically gnome apps tend to have less options through gui, but have sane defaults. Kde apps have the philosophy that every options should be changable through gui
[03:00] <physic> i installed apache2 and phpmyadmin and perl
[03:00] <islington> firestorm: are the packages selected?
[03:00] <PerryArmstrong> islington; ohh
[03:00] <physic> but phpmyadmin not working in browser
[03:01] <firestorm> islington: yes
[03:01] <islington> firestorm: click on the name
[03:01] <ScottNYC> any ideas on installing parallels tools in 9.04
[03:01] <ScottNYC> ubuntu
[03:01] <islington> firestorm: still grayed out?
[03:01] <firestorm> islington: yup
[03:01] <islington> hmm
[03:01] <chingus> physic, update your browser OR get mozilla firefox rather than ubufox OR get a completely different browser. If non of those work reinstall phpmyadmin
[03:02] <randal> soreau: im just restarting
[03:02] <heogen> hello, anyone can help me what program can I take a picture with my web cam?
[03:02] <soreau> randal: gnome-panel is started by a daemon and compiz is started by gnome-appearance-properties which probably also has the gnome daemon start it for you so you're not going to see it in sessions
[03:02] <physic> i have ff i update phpmyadmin than 5 time
[03:02] <Korax> heogen: "cheese" is not bad
[03:02] <soreau> ! cheese | heogen
[03:02] <PerryArmstrong> islington; kk so i am just wondering to install kde along with its apps...but i used kde once and i felt that the menus are redundant and disordered
[03:02] <DJCharlie> can someone help me figure out where these extra init strings are coming from in my vgetty installation please? log output is here: http://pastebin.com/d19838327
[03:02] <soreau> ! webcam | heogen
[03:02] <randal> soreau:  im not in season im in auto start
[03:02] <heogen> korax thank you guys
[03:02] <chingus> !offtopic > chingus
[03:03] <soreau> randal: session, auto start, startup programs whatever. they're all the same thing
[03:03] <heogen> soreau thank you
[03:03] <islington> PerryArmstrong: this is unfortunately quite true. you will have to clean up the menus by hand
[03:03] <soreau> heogen: no problem :)
[03:03] <firestorm> islington: can it be done from the command line with apt or dpkg?
[03:03] <chingus> physic, you probably have ubufox i.e. the firefox that came with ubuntu, get the latest mozilla one.
[03:04] <islington> firestorm: I am looking it up
[03:04] <physic> i have latest
[03:04] <SnakDoc> i found mistake in this https://help.ubuntu.com/9.04/serverguide/C/samba-dc.html was told to report on launchpad but i have no idea where on launchpad to report
[03:05] <PerryArmstrong> islington; once i install kde and its apps can i switch between gnome and kde??
[03:05] <Korax> physic: what comes up when you go /phpmyadmin  ?
[03:05] <islington> firestorm: https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-users/2007-June/116572.html
[03:05] <IdleOne> SnakDoc against the samba package?
[03:05] <chingus> physic, if you got it from mozilla website directly then you probably do. In that case try a browser other than firefox?
[03:05] <fuzzy_> anyway to rid myself of the gui at boot?
[03:05] <physic> wait wait its working
[03:05] <chingus> physic, funny i had a similar problem but after I installed the firefox version on mozilla that solved it.
[03:05] <randal> soreau: this is werid its not messing up give me a second
[03:06] <islington> PerryArmstrong: yes. essentially your logins are either handled by gdm (gnome version) or kdm (kde version) ,each has options to pick the de wuite easily
[03:06] <islington> *quite
[03:06] <SnakDoc> IdleOne the issue is this add machine script = sudo /usr/sbin/useradd -n -g machines -c Machine -d /var/lib/samba -s /bin/false %u
[03:06] <SnakDoc>  the lower case n should be N
[03:06] <physic>  but its asking ABOUT user name and password?
[03:06] <physic> which user i type i don know
[03:07] <PerryArmstrong> islington; so tell me the commands that i need ...in the sense the packages that i need to install to get both the kde and its apps
[03:08] <randal> soreau: this is the strangest thing its working now
[03:08] <SeaPhor|game> i havent used my box in a few weeks and i come back and i have no audio, Ubuntu 8.04, how do i find the problem?
[03:08] <soreau> randal: Good. leave it alone now
[03:08] <islington> PerryArmstrong: just the basic apps or the whole canoli?
[03:08] <randal> soreau: ive installed ubuntu 4 times in a row and this is the first time it worked
[03:08] <soreau> randal: Where did you get that ubuntu tweak?
[03:08] <Korax> fuzzy_: https://answers.launchpad.net/upstart/+question/6093
[03:08] <PerryArmstrong> islington; canoli means?
[03:09] <Korax> soreau: getdeb
[03:09] <pakito> online boxing game http://www.kobox.org/kobox-fande-Nourine.html
[03:09] <soreau> randal: My motto is if it's not in the standard ubuntu repos, don't use it. If it was a good program, it would be in the repos
[03:09] <randal> soreau: it looks rely good  its made from ubuntu  i think http://www.getdeb.net/release/4775
[03:10] <islington> PerryArmstrong: er.. sorry colloquial expression. Canoli means  stuff like kmail, and konqueror, not neccesary but part of the kubuntu package
[03:10] <soreau> randal: It could be screwing you up
[03:10] <randal> soreau: this is the first install i used it
[03:10] <soreau> randal: Oh well, hopefully you don't break it again
[03:10] <randal> soreau: but i havent installed update yet or the wifi fix with this netbook
[03:10] <PerryArmstrong> islington; doesn't matter...
[03:10] <islington> PerryArmstrong: to try the whole thing : search for the package kubuntu-desktop in synaptic
[03:11] <islington> install it
[03:11] <randal> soreau: ya i hope. thanks for your time

[03:18] <chingus> physic, so even as root it asks you to change permissions?
[03:18] <physic> yes

[03:19] <physic> how ? idont know
[03:20] <firestorm> islington: works a treat :-)   many thanks for your efforts
[03:20] <chingus> physic, read this: http://ss64.com/bash/ it will be very useful while using linux...
[03:20] <islington> firestorm: np :)
[03:22] <lenovoubuntu> hi, can we run wlan for local network, and wireless modem (for internet connection) at the same time?
[03:22] <PerryArmstrong> islington; if i run sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop will that suffice??
[03:22] <islington> PerryArmstrong: ofcourse
[03:22] <chingus> physic, the ones you are particularly interested in are chmod and chown
[03:23] <PerryArmstrong> islington; thank you
[03:23] <islington> PerryArmstrong: np :)

[03:24] <physic> chingus, i need change permission on it var/www/mybb/upload/inc/config.php
[03:24] <physic> how type it in terminal?
[03:25] <Growlithe> I've asked this question 7 times over the past month and I haven't gotten anywhere. Google is no help and I haven't had any luck....
[03:25] <physic> scottNYC?
[03:25] <SeaPhor|game> i havent used my box in a few weeks and i come back and i have no audio, Ubuntu 8.04, how do i find the problem?
[03:25] <chingus> physic, open terminal and type in the following without the quotes "chmod 0777 var/www/mybb/upload/inc/config.php". We are on shaky ground now so make sure you can recover...
[03:25] <ScottNYC> ya
[03:25] <ScottNYC> im here
[03:26] <ScottNYC> oh
[03:26] <islington> ScottNYC: so in a terminal cd to whereever the cd drive is mounted
[03:26] <chingus> physic make sure you are in the root directory before you do the above...
[03:26] <islington> ScottNYC: I am still not sure what the problem is.. sorry I am stupid
[03:26] <chingus> physic, make sure you are in the root directory before you do the above...
[03:26] <physic> ok
[03:26] <ScottNYC> ok I have a menu being displayed in terminal right now that reads -i,--install = install or upgrade tools
[03:27] <ScottNYC> thats what i wanna do
[03:27] <ScottNYC> so what should i type

[03:27] <chingus> ScottNYC, please don't punctuate with enter.
[03:27] <ScottNYC> k
[03:28] <Brando753> do ati cards work well in ubuntu?
[03:28] <chingus> Brando753, a few flickering problems at times but they can be fixed. Other than that they work brilliantly with the right drivers
[03:28] <islington> ScottNYC:  type in the <name of command> <-i>
[03:29] <islington> ScottNYC: what are you installing?

[03:29] <ScottNYC> parallels tools
[03:30] <scott> I have a question about LTS?
[03:30] <ScottNYC> for ubuntu 9.04
[03:30] <ScottNYC> belive it or not i tried this a year ago and didnt get it, so i gave up, now im trying it again and still cant get it lmao
[03:31] <scott> What are the benefits of using Ubuntu LTS?
[03:31] <ScottNYC> everything on internet is for installing in ubuntu 8
[03:31] <islington> ScottNYC: looks like 9.04 is not supported mate :http://download.parallels.com/desktop/v4/docs/en/Parallels_Desktop_Users_Guide/23583.htm
[03:31] <chingus> scott, LTS stands for long term support, so basically thats it...
[03:31] <chingus> physic, any luck?
[03:32] <scott> Do they focus more on bugs in the OS?
[03:32] <nix-idioteque> So I take it irc.ubuntu.net is just irc.freenode.net
[03:32] <physic> it say this file not found
[03:32] <scott> in a LTS, that is?
[03:32] <ScottNYC> if u go to the end of the posts in the parallels forum , page 5, its states its released
[03:32] <nix-idioteque> ahaha
[03:32] <nix-idioteque> answered
[03:32] <nix-idioteque> duh
[03:32] <ScottNYC> support was released as of the last parallels update
[03:32] <islington> scott: LTS means long term support, sometimes newere packages bring newer bugs
[03:32] <chingus> physic, can you say what the file was again?
[03:32] <scott> !LTS
[03:33] <physic> what u mean?
[03:33] <scott> Thanks, chingus.

[03:44] <physic> ok
[03:44] <chingus> cd /var
[03:44] <physic> chingus, ok
[03:44] <ScottNYC> islington I think we did it wrong but maybe not, cause cohernce still isnt available and the screen still wont adjust with the parallels viewer window
[03:44] <settntrenz> foundry87: before using skype was the mic working well with other apps, such as sound recorder?

[03:45] <foundry87> settntrenz: I'm not sure, this is the first time I'm using it
[03:45] <ScottNYC> and not the tools
[03:45] <chingus> cd www/mybb/UPload
[03:45] <physic> i cant copy
[03:46] <settntrenz> foundry87: what version of ubuntu? and are u using pulseaudio?
[03:46] <physic> chingus, ok
[03:46] <foundry87> settntrenz: 9.04 and I'm not sure
[03:47] <settntrenz> foundry87: open terminal, ps aux | grep pulse
[03:48] <foundry87> settntrenz: http://pastebin.com/m6372929e
[03:48] <physic> chingus, then?
[03:48] <SeaPhor|game> settntrenz, if foundry87 is on 0.04 and default then yes
[03:48] <chingus> physic, working so far?
[03:48] <chingus> physic, now copy paste the next thing:
[03:48] <chingus> cd inc/
[03:49] <physic> chingus, ok
[03:49] <physic> then?
[03:49] <chingus> physic, last part now copy paste:
[03:49] <chingus> sudo chmod 0777 config.php
[03:50] <chingus> physic, it will ask for your password enter it...you will not see it appear but it will be being entered
[03:50] <physic> chingus, i did
[03:50] <chingus> physic, okay now you have changed the permissions as it asked.
[03:50] <settntrenz> foundry87: based on pastebin you are. Before I recommend restarting pulse, Have you ensured that your mic is enabled and the volume levels are adjusted accordingly? run alsamixer from a terminal and verify the mic is on.
[03:51] <physic> chingus,thanksssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssss
[03:51] <foundry87> settntrenz: Yes, the mic is on

[03:57] <bullgard> Power Manager's 2.24.2 tooltip shows on a newly bought computer : "Battery runtime is estimated." After how many learning cycles of Power manager will this message vanish?
[03:57] <settntrenz> SeaPhor|game: I guess we start at the bottom. Does lspci list a sound device?
[03:58] <settntrenz> SeaPhor|game: asoundconf list     will also tell you if any sound hardware is available
[03:59] <glicks> excuse me, what do i do if i have a window that cant be resized but its longer than the screen?  How can i move it so i can click on the 'OK' button at the bottom of the window?
[03:59] <SeaPhor|game> settntrenz, http://pastebin.com/f490bd819
[03:59] <SeaPhor|game> settntrenz, and i use OSS
[03:59] <settntrenz> SeaPhor|game: line 3 looks to be your sound card
[03:59] <settntrenz> thats good.
[04:00] <GodfatherofEire> Is there any Speech to text frontend for Ubuntu?
[04:00] <mow> settntrenz > lspci |grep -i audio
[04:00] <SeaPhor|game> settntrenz, whats good? the lspci or the OSS?
[04:00] <ari_stress> hi guys, what's hot
[04:00] <settntrenz> SeaPhor|game: lspci
[04:00] <SeaPhor|game> k
[04:00] <glicks> dos anyone know how i can move the window up in gnome
[04:00] <settntrenz> mow: thanks
[04:00] <glicks> beyond the upper panel?
[04:01] <giiker> anybody here stil uses pine, and anyone uses it with gmail and cron?
[04:01] <settntrenz> SeaPhor|game: have you messed with alsamixer?
[04:01] <SeaPhor|game> settntrenz, or lshw -C sound
[04:01] <SeaPhor|game> settntrenz, no, no need, i use OSS so its ossxmix
[04:01] <jeanphi_> bonjour
[04:02] <settntrenz> SeaPhor|game: hmm, never messed with OSS
[04:02] <settntrenz> SeaPhor|game: what is the reason for using that instead of alsa?
[04:02] <webbb82> i am loooking for a better download manager any ideas?
[04:03] <dantonic> Hi, Just installed ubuntu on an older P4 box, what's the best way to troubleshoot the sound system?  Currently I have No sound at all.
[04:04] <dantonic> I installed 9.04
[04:04] <SeaPhor|game> settntrenz, the 7.1 works great, the settings are great, hated alsa on this box,,, http://imagebin.ca/view/wGS88q-V.html
[04:04] <ftz> #ugn - irc.freenode.net
[04:04] <IdleOne> !sound | dantonic
[04:04] <settntrenz> SeaPhor|game: gotcha, thought it might have been a hardware requirement (your card didn't work with alsa)
[04:05] <SeaPhor|game> settntrenz, nah, just works better with OSS
[04:05] <norberto2611> hello
[04:05] <alybabe356> heyppl
[04:05] <norberto2611> I'm new with linux
[04:05] <norberto2611> question
[04:05] <IdleOne> ask
[04:05] <wes__> What do you want to know norb?
[04:05] <rohn> Hi, just dual-boot installed ubuntu on my laptop, but when I restart ubuntu, it won't remember my settings (i.e. have to re-setup Evolution each time, change desktop theme)
[04:06] <rohn> What is going wrong?
[04:06] <settntrenz> SeaPhor|game: Any software updates between when it was working and now?
[04:06] <norberto2611> I just got my new MSI netbook and installed the new ubuntu 9.04 remix but my built-in webcam in not working
[04:06] <wes__> Do you know that your Netbook model is supported?
[04:06] <SeaPhor|game> yes, lol, tonight as a matter of fact
[04:07] <norberto2611> yes it is
[04:07] <wes__> If you go to Ubuntu's website, it will tell you, and I'll get the link real quick.
[04:07] <SeaPhor|game> yes, lol, tonight as a matter of fact settntrenz
[04:07] <physic>  people iam on :/var/www/mybb/Upload/inc$
 how i can back to var/?
[04:07] <SeaPhor|game> settntrenz, plz dont tell me windoz updates killed my box,,, again LOL
[04:07] <GodfatherofEire> Is there any Speech to text frontend for Ubuntu?
[04:07] <McLinux|molson> this netbook of mine is wholly supported.. i have not yet tried the "wired" connection
[04:08] <settntrenz> SeaPhor|game: if it was windows updates that broke it then we have a whole other problem ;)
[04:08] <Geoffrey2> I had installed the 64 bit version of Ubuntu on sda6, and GRUB was installed there, I'd like to move it back to sda2, which is where the 32 bit version of ubuntu is....
[04:08] <SeaPhor|game> settntrenz, just making the reference...
[04:08] <Geoffrey2> that is, I'd like GRUB to reside on sda2
[04:08] <SeaPhor|game> settntrenz, LOL
[04:09] <settntrenz> SeaPhor|game: i knew u were joking. So I guess now we have to determine which update broke it
[04:09] <SeaPhor|game> settntrenz, funny,,, i have xchat set to beep when calles by nick,,,its beeping....
[04:09] <IdleOne> !pm | norberto2611
[04:10] <settntrenz> SeaPhor|game: beep is prolly your mobo speaker
[04:10] <settntrenz> SeaPhor|game: lsmod | grep snd
[04:10] <SeaPhor|game> settntrenz, none on MB
[04:10] <norberto2611> my built in webcam in not working
[04:10] <norberto2611> in ubuntu remix for netbook
[04:10] <settntrenz> SeaPhor|game: Ok, that could mean something. See if you can try a few different apps to see if you can get sound from some and not others.
[04:11] <McLinux|molson> norberto2611, what is your netbook
[04:11] <norberto2611> MSI
[04:11] <McLinux|molson> msi.....?
[04:11] <norberto2611> MSI wind U123 series
[04:12] <SeaPhor|game> settntrenz, snd_page_alloc         11400  0
[04:12] <rohn> Ubuntu starts fresh every time I  restart What is going wrong? it won't remember any of my settings!
[04:12] <Steil> msiwind is good

[04:13] <amagee> rohn: you're not still booting from the cd are you?
[04:13] <rohn> no
[04:13] <rohn> no cd
[04:13] <SeaPhor|game> settntrenz, i have tried  COH (which is how i discovered No Audio), youtube, and will try an mp3 with VLC now
[04:13] <settntrenz> SeaPhor|game: i don't run oss, but I have a ton of stuff coming back from lsmod | grep snd, some even mentioning oss
[04:13] <rohn> i have 9.04 dual installed
[04:13] <brax_> ACK!
[04:13] <rohn> along with (ugh!) vista
[04:13] <brax_> I am sooo excited!
[04:13] <amagee> rohn: hmm well you've exhausted my ideas on this topic then :(
[04:13] <brax_> I'm making a live cd of ubuntu and I can't wait to run it!
[04:14] <rohn> ok
[04:14] <SeaPhor|game> settntrenz, wbc@wbc-desktop:~/Desktop$ lsmod | grep snd

[04:14] <SeaPhor|game> settntrenz, thats it
[04:14] <Mata> I'm currently experiencing an issue with my 1TB ext3 formatted HD. I'm getting read/write errors. I've tried to FSCK -y the drive through a USB BlackX device but it's getting too many errors. Now I've tried to add the SATA drive to my system and when booting I receive tons of errors when booting
[04:15] <Mata> Any help would be greatly appreciated :/
[04:15] <settntrenz> SeaPhor|game: what did u find?
[04:15] <norberto2611> MSI wind U123 series. Built-in webcam in not been recognized when I open it with the apps cheese
[04:15] <Bookman> Any ideas on how to get a broadcom wireless connection working on my laptop with 9.04?
[04:15] <SeaPhor|game> settntrenz, thats it
[04:15] <settntrenz> SeaPhor|game: oh you meant that was the only return
[04:15] <SeaPhor|game> settntrenz, yes
[04:15] <rohn> where does ubuntu save settings?
[04:16] <rohn> (like for the desktop theme, etc.)
[04:16] <settntrenz> SeaPhor|game: given the lack of sound modules present, I'm wondering if reinstalling OSS might do the trick
[04:16] <SeaPhor|game> rohn, in you /home/<user> directory
[04:17] <settntrenz> SeaPhor|game: do you have the ossinfo command available? If so see if that returns anything relevant
[04:17] <norberto2611> can anyone help me with my problem
[04:17] <[[[> sure
[04:18] <rohn> SeaPhor|game: found that directory what sub-directory?,
[04:18] <norberto2611> webcam in not been recognize
[04:18] <SeaPhor|game> settntrenz, http://pastebin.com/f4e02e498
[04:18] <Bookman> Anyone with a broadcom wireless solution?
[04:19] <settntrenz> SeaPhor|game: its looks like its seeing the devices
[04:19] <SeaPhor|game> rohn, it will be a hidden dir,,, do CTRL+H to see them
[04:20] <pete_> Hello, I have an HP notebook and the only thing that does not work are my laptop volume buttons?
[04:20] <papashou> i'll have to set weechat up a bit.. but yea it rocks
[04:20] <hittingpilot> does anyone know how to dual boot windows 7 and ubuntu with ubuntu installed first?
[04:20] <papashou> is there a "line" plugin for weechat.. like xxchat has. where it shows you the last place you left off ?
[04:20] <SeaPhor|game> settntrenz, yeah,,, just something is ... off
[04:20] <settntrenz> SeaPhor|game: i'm doing some googling. I'm not sure where to go from here.
[04:21] <Bookman> Ok, so do broadcom cards not work then in Linux?
[04:21] <pete_> Bookman, mine works.
[04:21] <Bookman> Or chipsets?
[04:21] <pete_> Bookman, and yes it does.
[04:21] <papashou> who in here likes gnome-do ?
[04:22] <SeaPhor|game> settntrenz, no worries, not being familiar with OSS i cant expect you to know, you've already showed me more than i knew starting out so MANY THANKS!!!
[04:22] <GodfatherofEire> papashou, I used to, but then I just found alt-F2
[04:22] <leaf-sheep> ALT-F2 rocks!
[04:22] <Trent_> When using ffmpeg, I used to be able to specify "-vcodec libx264", when I was using gentoo linux.  I have installed the libx264 library, but I get an error that says "Unknown encoder 'libx264'"  What should I do?
[04:22] <GodfatherofEire> But I will admit, gnome-do is a tad more multifunctional
[04:22] <Bookman> pete_: got you, mine must be unique then.  No problem.
[04:22] <settntrenz> SeaPhor|game: are you on 9.04? and if so which kernel?
[04:23] <pete_> Bookman, you need the restricted driver
[04:23] <pete_> !restricted drivers
[04:23] <SeaPhor|game> settntrenz, no, this is my gamming box,,, 8.04 LTS,
[04:23] <GodfatherofEire> !botsnack
[04:23] <hittingpilot> does anyone know how to dual boot windows 7 and ubuntu with ubuntu installed first?
[04:23] <SeaPhor|game> settntrenz,  2.6.24-24-generic
[04:24] <settntrenz> SeaPhor|game: I'm wondering if something similar to this might have happened http://nuclear-imaging.info/site_content/2009/02/25/broken-audio-and-a-workaround-in-ubuntu-904/?
[04:24] <GodfatherofEire> !GRUB | hittingpilot
[04:24] <Bookman> pete_: not much help
[04:24] <Trent_> hittingpilot: What's your partition layout?
[04:24] <pete_> Bookman, hold.
[04:24] <yassine> m
[04:24] <swoody> !ask | norberto2611
[04:24] <hittingpilot> GodfatherorEire: Windows won't boot after restoring it to grub
[04:25] <rohn> SeaPhor|game: I found the evolution settings including the accounts settings, but why won't evolution load them?
[04:25] <hittingpilot> Trent_:what do you mean?
[04:25] <Bookman> pete_: according to synaptic, all restriced drivers are installed
[04:25] <Trent_> hittingpilot: What is your partitioning scheme?  Or are you an end user that doesn't understand linux much?
[04:25] <pete_> Bookman, what card do you have?
[04:25] <Bookman> and I tell by?
[04:26] <Trent_> hittingpilot: Basically, in order to install ubuntu, or any linux distro, and have it work with Windows, you must either have a grub boot partition, or you must install grub on your ubuntu partition, and copy the boot partition into a file on the windows drive.
[04:26] <hittingpilot> Trent_: right now I only have 1 hard drive formatted, and it has Ubuntu on an ext4 partition, I am planning to install windows 7 on another drive, and have 1 more drive for backup
[04:26] <SeaPhor|game> settntrenz, tried it... gave me "The user `wbc' is already a member of `audio'."
[04:27] <hittingpilot> Trent_:whenever I add windows 7 to the grub list, it won't boot anymore
[04:27] <Trent_> hittingpilot: Oh, well that shouldn't be a problem then.  Which disk is your primary disk?
[04:27] <pete_> broad lspci |grep control
[04:27] <pete_> Bookman, lspci |grep control
[04:27] <Trent_> hittingpilot: What won't boot anymore?
[04:28] <pete_> Bookman, and mine is.... 02:00.0 Network controller: Broadcom Corporation BCM4312 802.11b/g (rev 01)
[04:28] <hittingpilot> Trent_:you mean the boot order in the bios? and 7 won't boot from the grub list
[04:28] <hittingpilot> Trent_:this is my 3rd attempt to make this work
[04:28] <Bookman> pete_: 4318
[04:28] <Trent_> hittingpilot: Yeah, the boot order in the bios.  Does grub come with a menu then?
[04:29] <Bookman> pete_: fresh install of 9.04 does not seem friendly with this chipset
[04:29] <ScottNYC> how difficult is it to install windows and ubuntu on a MBP, being able to boot into any of them at startup?
[04:29] <pete_> Bookman, odd, I am looking for info
[04:29] <settntrenz> SeaPhor|game: Last thing I can offer would be going through this: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/OpenSound and seeing what is in place and matches up to your system.
[04:29] <papashou> dualboot just sucks
[04:29] <rohn> I tried to restore evolution's settings but I'm not sure what extension they should have. Any help? (and now evolution won't start!)
[04:29] <hittingpilot> Trent_: the Ubuntu drive is first, naturally, and my first 2 attempts have been with windows first, they failed miserably
[04:29] <keri> has anyone used or has ScratchHosting?
[04:29] <Trent_> hittingpilot: I have a grub config like http://pastebin.com/d2a6d3fec
[04:29] <ScottNYC> i mean triple boot
[04:29] <ScottNYC> lol
[04:29] <SeaPhor|game> ok settntrenz and THanks for your time
[04:29] <Bookman> pete_: No worries, I still have  the original XP discs here.  They work.
[04:30] <ScottNYC> i was reading something about reefit
[04:30] <pete_> Bookman, yea i believe it, is it an airforce card
[04:30] <settntrenz> SeaPhor|game: no problem, I suppose if I had more experience with OSS I could have been more help
[04:30] <pete_> BcM4318 airforce wifi?
[04:30] <ScottNYC> its a login screen for all the OSs
[04:30] <rohn> SeaPhor|game: thanks for your help, but it's still not running right
[04:30] <Bookman> pete_: I have no idea
[04:30] <rohn> evolution that is
[04:30] <SeaPhor|game> settntrenz, you might like it,,, try it! ;-)
[04:30] <Trent_> hittingpilot: Does your grub config for Windows look anything like that?  And, did grub come up with the menu when you boot?
[04:30] <pete_> Bookman, but it is BCM4318 yes?
[04:31] <Bookman> pete_: yes, airforce
[04:31] <aaron> Hi, does anyone know how to setup a postfix server with mysql?
[04:31] <hittingpilot> Trent_: oh! of course, I used the default setting from the ubuntu installation
[04:31] <pete_> Bookman, sudo gedit /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist
[04:31] <pete_> anything in there?
[04:31] <SeaPhor|game> rohn, try #evolution or try to install thunderbird from the repos
[04:31] <aaron> I followed this tutoria: http://www.howtoforge.com/virtual_postfix_mysql_quota_courier_ubuntu_edgy_p2
[04:32] <Trent_> hittingpilot: Oh, my grub config wasn't made by ubuntu, I made it, so I don't know what ubuntu would do during install.    Is it just hanging on you?  What do you see on the screen if it's hanging?
[04:32] <Bookman> pete_: yup...no problem, I will install. Thanks.
[04:32] <pete_> Bookman, no
[04:32] <papashou> who uses lostiRC here
[04:33] <hittingpilot> Trent_: is what hanging?
[04:33] <pete_> Bookman, thats not what I meant at all
[04:33] <aaron> any ideas?
[04:33] <papashou> thoughts, comments, vs Xchat?
[04:33] <Trent_> hittingpilot: hang as in not respond, like a dead man hanging from a noose.
