[01:37] <tanlaan> say yay it works now
[01:37] <yhonatan> munsa
[01:37] <yhonatan> you can try art.gnome.org too
[01:37] <stuart_> axl4711:  probably the theme then...when you selected it in theme manager did it give you any errors or did it say that it installed cleanly?
[01:37] <tabman> rsk: you don't behead a person if he has a headache, you solve it, if linux distro are still not very much easy to setup, make them more easy :) I'm speaking for the favor of linux distro not against them, we should not be hesitant enough to realize that yes we might be lacking something here
[01:38] <InvisiblePinkUni> what % should be swap space during installation?
[01:38] <oskude> srikat: install ubuntu as last, it should find all the other osses and make a boot option for them
[01:38] <InvisiblePinkUni> !swap
[01:38] <ubotu> swap is used to move unused programs and data out of main memory to make your system faster. It can also be used as extra memory if you don't have enough. See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/SwapFaq for more info
[01:38] <InvisiblePinkUni> !wifeswap
[01:38] <ubotu> I know nothing about wifeswap - try searching http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi?db=ubuntu
[01:38] <InvisiblePinkUni> :p
[01:38] <Luna-Tick> Just one last advert for the Ubuntu Popularity Contest before I go off to bed. If you are looking for the easiest possible way to help out Ubuntu without any technical skills, enable popcon: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuPopularityContest - the more "normal" (non-developer) users we can get to use it, the more value there is to the whole system. Goodnight all!
[01:38] <axl4711> thstuart_: the theme installed cleanly... i think it could have something to do with the applets in the panel
[01:38] <srikat> oskude: can I point it to the same swap as that of Mepis?
[01:38] <munsa> Thank you :)
[01:38] <mounir> art.gnome.org is a good site :)
[01:38] <tabman> carinArr: where will I find this .bashrc file ?
[01:38] <oskude> srikat: yes, i do that all the time
[01:38] <CarinArr> tabman, the problem is, if you're from a windows environment you will find windows easy, that doesn't mean ubuntu should be like windows;)
[01:38] <munsa> does anyone know why Daper doesent come with XChat installed by Default???
[01:38] <mcphail> Luna-Tick: is this different from the debian version?
[01:38] <tabman> CarinArr: right
[01:39] <fatlip> how do you change the default program for certain file types to open with?
[01:39] <axl4711> stuart_: the same for failsafe:... there were severaly errors abou the applets in the panel... the second time i didn't get into failesafe either
[01:39] <CarinArr> tabman, in your  home directory, the "." makes it invisible, so don't worry if you don't see it
[01:39] <srikat> oskude: does the same apply to /home as well? Can Mepis and Ubuntu share the same /home?
[01:39] <mc__> srikat, yes
[01:39] <oskude> srikat: i wouldnt do that
[01:39] <Luna-Tick> mcphail - same idea, but it points to popcon.ubuntu.com instead of the Debian server
[01:39] <mc__> srikat, but it's a bad idea
[01:39] <srikat> ok, that means..no
[01:39] <tabman> CarinArr: how do I go to my home directory ?
[01:39] <munsa> because I find this one of the most useful features of Ununtu. You know I find that the Unbuntu users are SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO much more friendly and helpful then any other linux chat I have been too. Ya know the l33t peps who are to good to speak to you
[01:39] <munsa> RTFM!
[01:39] <munsa> baaa
[01:39] <mcphail> Luna-Tick: ok. cool
[01:39] <stuart_> axl14711:  give me a sec to look around
[01:40] <oskude> srikat: as some programs save their settings in /home, and if they dont have the same versions of that prog, you may get trouble
[01:40] <axl4711> stuart: ok
[01:40] <CarinArr> tabman, if you open a terminal window, it automatically puts you in your home directory
[01:40] <mounir> how  upgrade my dist to dapper...
[01:40] <yhonatan> i want to do something that if i will press F7 gaim will start,can I do it in gnome?
[01:40] <Luna-Tick> mounir: are you on Breezy?
[01:40] <oskude> srikat: but of course, technically, its of course doable
[01:40] <mounir> yes
[01:40] <yhonatan> :|
[01:41] <rsk> tabman, oh yes there are lots of things that can be improved. but i think there are lots already done and lots coming. maybe in the next 2/3 ubuntu releases we will have something thats as "easy" as windows
[01:41] <CarinArr> tabman, if you want to set env variables globally you can set them in /etc/environment
[01:41] <yhonatan> some1?:|
[01:41] <mounir> I'm new linux user!
[01:41] <srikat> oskude: if I point the ubuntu installer to an unallocated space, it's going to write /, swap and /home over there?
[01:41] <srikat> or just /swap and /
[01:42] <srikat> swap*
[01:42] <Luna-Tick> Mounir: Is there an icon up in the top left with a red circle?
[01:42] <mounir> yes
[01:42] <oskude> srikat: dunno, never did that automatic installation
[01:42] <Luna-Tick> If you hover over it it should say "Update Manager"
[01:42] <Luna-Tick> or something
[01:42] <yhonatan> how can i do a hotkey to gaim?
[01:42] <srikat> k
[01:42] <yhonatan> or Xchat
[01:42] <tabman> CarinArr: what is the diff, why did not you tell me this earlier I mean
[01:42] <mounir> ok I try it
[01:42] <oskude> srikat: and in dualboot (or more) you cant use any automatic
[01:43] <srikat> got it. since I am gonna use the same swap, I have to go the manual way
[01:43] <Luna-Tick> Mounir: Click that picture and it may ask for a password
[01:43] <yhonatan> :(
[01:43] <CarinArr> tabman, i wasn't entirely sure how you were planning to use it
[01:43] <Luna-Tick> mounir: Then you should get a window open with a list of updates
[01:43] <yhonatan> why no one answer me:(
[01:43] <Luna-Tick> mounir: Are you there?
[01:43] <mounir> in Update Manager  nothing hapen after entering pass
[01:43] <tabman> CarinArr: so what should I write in this environment file ? anywayz it would be permanent I won't have to do it again (not for this session only I mean) ?
[01:44] <Luna-Tick> mounir: What is on your screen?
[01:44] <mounir> yes
[01:44] <fatlip> how do you change the default program for certain file types to open with?
[01:44] <Luna-Tick> Anything?
[01:44] <CarinArr> tabman, when i set environment variables i tend to set them in .bashrc, and they're set when i start a terminal.. but if you want to use them inside another application that wouldnt' necessarily carry across
[01:44] <yhonatan> how can i use hotkeys for any program i want like gaim or xchat?
[01:44] <tabman> CarinArr: I told you the way I'm suppose to use them so tell me according to that, where should I set ?
[01:45] <oskude> yhonatan: system - preferences - shortcut keys ?
[01:45] <yhonatan> no
[01:45] <srikat> oskude: ty...off I go to install Ubuntu
[01:45] <Luna-Tick> mounir: Where are you up to?
[01:45] <yhonatan> but i cant use shortcut keys for gaim or xchat
[01:45] <mounir> pb with password !
[01:45] <oskude> yhonatan: hmm, other i know is xmodmap, but dunno if it can do "shortcuts"
[01:45] <CarinArr> tabman, probably .profile if you want to set them just for yourself, or /etc/environment if you want to set them for all users.. and to answer your question the reason i didn't say from the start is because there are others around that are much better qualified to tell you where things should and shouldn't go;)
[01:46] <yhonatan> ok i check it:)
[01:46] <Luna-Tick> mounir: type in your password and hit okay
[01:46] <fatlip> nevermind i got it lol
[01:46] <CarinArr> tabman, i tend to stick things where they work from me and normally get told off for it;)
[01:46] <mounir> I did it but nothing hapen...
[01:46] <CarinArr> for me even
[01:46] <Luna-Tick> What do you mean? Did it open a screen with nothing or nothing at all?
[01:46] <CarinArr> tabman, and if you set your variables in either of those files, it would load everytime, you wouldn't need to keep re-setting it
[01:46] <tabman> CarinArr :)
[01:47] <mounir> nothing at all ,
[01:47] <Luna-Tick> Try minimising windows and checking that it isn't hiding behind something :).
[01:47] <tabman> CarinArr: how do I set them up in the environment now ?
[01:47] <kintaro0e> hello everyone, what iproute syntax that shall i add on my firewall so that i could use my ftp services?
[01:47] <Luna-Tick> If you can't find it, try again
[01:47] <tabman> CarinArr: as in what should I write there ?
[01:47] <CarinArr> tabman, well if you do "sudo gedit /etc/environment"
[01:47] <mounir> fed up with linux ! too complicated!!!
[01:48] <Luna-Tick> LOL
[01:48] <CarinArr> tabman, adding a line "JDK_HOME=/path/to/jdk" would set the JDK_HOME variable
[01:48] <stuart_> axl4711:  i haven't found anything to help you yet, but i'll keep looking.  you might want to ask again as i guess it's going to involve editing a number of config files
[01:48] <kintaro0e> i mean iptables
[01:48] <Luna-Tick> Oh dear.
[01:48] <Luna-Tick> Looks like we lost another one.
[01:48] <DrBashir2> Linux has never been easier!
[01:49] <Luna-Tick> *sigh*
[01:49] <axl4711> stuart: ok thank u
[01:49] <tabman> CarinArr: at the end of file ?
[01:49] <oskude> kintaro0e: afaik, you dont have to do anything, ftp port is open
[01:49] <kintaro0e> oskude: ah..ok
[01:49] <CarinArr> tabman, yeah end is fine
[01:49] <Luna-Tick> Okay, Goodnight all :)
[01:50] <CarinArr> tabman, the path depends onw here you have your jdk installed, mine's in /usr/share/java/jdk1.5.0_06/
[01:50] <Lynoure> Luna-Tick: Luckily to goal is not necessarily to catch them all like in Pokemon :)
[01:50] <Luna-Tick> LOL
[01:50] <oskude> kintaro0e: they are all open, as theres nothing running on the port(s) (as default), so no need to block them
[01:50] <Drasla> is there any program like top, except showing network usage?
[01:50] <kintaro0e> oskude: thanks
[01:50] <Luna-Tick> Very true - although it would be nice to keep the ones we have try it
[01:50] <oskude> Drasla: iptraf is quite nice
[01:50] <Drasla> I'm having heavy network load here, and I don't know what program's causing it.
[01:50] <munsa> Hey, how big do you guys thing WikiPedia is??
[01:50] <Drasla> oskude:  thanks.
[01:50] <munsa> If like someone wanted to download the whole site? Haha
[01:51] <tabman> CarinArr: I can't copy paths in Ubuntu like the way we can copy from address bar in Windows ?
[01:51] <mcphail> munsa: it is a few gig. You can download a mysql dump
[01:51] <munsa> really?
[01:51] <axl4711> stuart_: are there logs about the startup of the applicatiosn/applets in gnome? For a sec there is an error message dialog poping up, but it is empty...
[01:51] <muep_> tabman: press ctrl+l in nautilus
[01:51] <munsa> Fantastic  how cool
[01:51] <CarinArr> tabman, just mark what you want to copy, then press your middle mouse button in the text editor
[01:51] <oskude> Drasla: but i cant remember if it shows whats using and how much, i just used to check my bandwidth
[01:51] <mcphail> munsa: they don't let you mirror the site directly
[01:51] <CarinArr> tabman, or what muep_ said, i'm assuming that works
[01:51] <Enverex> On my laptop when I'm moving icons around on my desktop it acts like I have control held down (and copies the icons instead of just moving them around my desktop). Any ideas?
[01:52] <longwave> munsa: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Database_download
[01:52] <oskude> Enverex: keyboard ok ? what happens if you really press control at dragging ?
[01:53] <tabman> CarinArr: what is nautilus ?
[01:53] <Enverex> oskude, Keyboard is fine and ctrl isn't stuck down. Pressing control doesn't change anything
[01:53] <oskude> Enverex: weird...
[01:53] <Enverex> oskude, I'm tempted to file a bug
[01:54] <oskude> Enverex: you need more info for a (good) bug report...
[01:54] <Enverex> oskude, such as?
[01:55] <rizo> hi
[01:55] <oskude> Enverex: in that case, no idea, sorry, hmm...
[01:55] <m_0_r_0_n> Is us.archive.ubuntu.com down? I cant connect for updating
[01:56] <rizo> How do I upgrade to Dapper from dapper cd and also will all my applications and setups be removed?
[01:57] <oskude> Enverex: there was a command to check what keys are pressed atm, but forgot the name... (just to see that control is not pressed whole tim)
[01:58] <supernix> anyone know much about modems ?
[01:59] <rizo> How do I upgrade to Dapper from dapper cd and also will all my applications and setups be removed?
[01:59] <Enverex> Ok, another issue is that the CPU stepping program wont let me change the speed of my processor on the gnome panel as it says the module isn't loaded etc. (despite speedstep and everything modules being loaded) but I know it supports it because it worked when that laptop had Gentoo on it
[01:59] <tengil> anyone have any idea why my swedish special characters wont work when i ssh'ing to a box and opening a screen with irssi in it. it works from my previous debian box. both computer im ssh'ing in from has no problem displaying the special characters in console
[02:00] <BlackBsd> if i want to try out ubuntu, and i want to use kde, should i use kubuntu or ubuntu and add the kde package?
[02:00] <ompaul> tengil, just some random guess  the term stttings
[02:00] <rickbauls> blackbsd: use kubuntu
[02:00] <tengil> ompaul: and how should i set that then?
[02:01] <BlackBsd> rickbauls, is it the same as ubuntu but with kde?
[02:01] <threat> Package libdvdcss2 is not available, but is referred to by another package.
[02:01] <threat> where is it ?
[02:01] <Jukru> tengil: set term_charset
[02:01] <rickbauls> blaskbsd: well, install ubuntu then apt-get install kubuntu-desktop
[02:01] <rizo> How do I upgrade to Dapper from dapper cd and also will all my applications and setups be removed?
[02:02] <rickbauls> blackbsd: yea
[02:02] <threat> and do I need libdvdcss2 to play encrypted DVDs?
[02:02] <rickbauls> threat: let me find this link...
[02:02] <ompaul> tengil, check the settings of the debian ones under the profile compatibitly and the setting terminal ,character encoding
[02:02] <threat> richiefrich, ok
[02:03] <threat> rickbauls, ok even
[02:03] <Tomcat_> !gru
[02:03] <rickbauls> threat: http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Dapper#How_to_install_DVD_playback_capability
[02:03] <Tomcat_> !grub
[02:03] <ubotu> I know nothing about gru - try searching http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi?db=ubuntu
[02:03] <ubotu> grub is the default Ubuntu boot manager. Lost grub after installing windows: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows - Making GRUB floppies & other GRUB howtos: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto
[02:04] <tengil> ompaul: they have the same under compatibility...
[02:05] <ompaul> tengil, there are two settings mentioned keep looking
[02:05] <tengil> ompaul: umm what do you mean?
[02:06] <ompaul> tengil, profile compatibitly  - and terminal character encoding   are two different things
[02:06] <tabman> I did a mount of a drive on /dev/hda4 I restarted the computer and its unmounted, I want to do a permanent mount ?
[02:06] <munsa> how awsome
[02:06] <longwave> tabman: you need to add an entry to /etc/fstab
[02:06] <ompaul> tengil, this is - edit -> profile compatibitly
[02:06] <munsa> I am downloading a 5000 page wikipedia!
[02:06] <munsa> awsome
[02:07] <tabman> longwave, the entry is present in fstab
[02:07] <tengil> ompaul: yeah but i dont know what i should set term character encoding to
[02:07] <rickbauls> munsa, why?
[02:07] <rickbauls> ... or what?
[02:07] <ompaul> tengil, the same on both
[02:07] <longwave> tabman: then it should mount at boot, unless you have "noauto" in the options
[02:08] <tabman> longwave: there is no noauto in the options
[02:08] <tengil> ompaul: both? in edit profile there is nothing about setting the charset.....
[02:08] <longwave> if you do "sudo mount -a" does it mount it then? because that command is run at boot to mount all filesystems...
[02:10] <threat> rickbauls, thanx
[02:10] <munsa> rickbauls because it is awsome to have that kinda knowledge for free!
[02:10] <rickbauls> welcome
[02:10] <rickbauls> haha
[02:10] <tabman> longwave: it says back : mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/hda4, missing codepage or other error In some cases useful info is found in syslog - try dmesg | tail  or so
[02:10] <ompaul> tengil, there are two menus, they should be the same, assuming you are running gnome in the console on both boxes, the first is this:  edit -> profiles select the profile and choose edit and check the compatibility, the second is this: terminal set character encoding
[02:10] <longwave> tabman: did you put the right filesystem type in /etc/fstab?
[02:11] <longwave> tabman: you need the same options in fstab as you pass to "mount" on the command line
[02:11] <tabman> longwave: my fstab http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/19006
[02:12] <munsa> Ok I was wondering, I have my Ubuntu Almost set up exactly how I like it, the eye candy, the good packages ect. Is there a way to do a backup or something so I can save the settings and the applications I have installed now?\
[02:12] <rickbauls> munsa, have fun reading all 5000
[02:12] <Enverex> munsa, All your own personal things (including settings) are in /home/yourname
[02:12] <tengil> ompaul: in edit profiles for gnome-terminal its only 2 things under compatibility. backspace key generates and delete key generates. in the settings for gnome terminal its no info on setting character encoding....
[02:12] <longwave> tabman: if it really is ext3, try removing the "utf8" bit, i think that is not needed on ext3 filesystems
[02:13] <elkbuntu> Enverex, i think he's looking for something like Ghost ;)
[02:13] <Enverex> elkbuntu, ah
[02:13] <rod_> hi
[02:13] <longwave> tabman: in fact, remove the umask and gid parts as well so the options just say "defaults"
[02:13] <rickbauls> howdy
[02:13] <ompaul> tengil, ask in #ubuntu-se?
[02:13] <tabman> longwave: you mean /dev/hda4       /media/hda4     ext3    defaults  0       1
[02:13] <longwave> tabman: yes
[02:15] <tabman> longwave: I did mount -a and it has opened up my drive
[02:15] <tabman> longwave: I hope it would do it on restart as well
[02:15] <longwave> tabman: ok, that should be automounted next time you reboot
[02:15] <Enverex> Ok, another issue is that the CPU stepping program wont let me change the speed of my processor on the gnome panel as it says the module isn't loaded etc. (despite speedstep and everything modules being loaded) but I know it supports it because it worked when that laptop had Gentoo on it
[02:15] <tabman> longwave: Thanks
[02:15] <tengil> ompaul: im trying there
[02:15] <tengil> thanks
[02:15] <Da_Putzler> can anyone help me with firestarter
[02:16] <danya> mcphail, you still here ?
[02:16] <danya> mcphail, can you help me with installing VMware workstation ?
[02:17] <Enverex> danya, it's a simple proceedure
[02:17] <danya> I tried following the documentation - but I get an error
[02:17] <Enverex> What error and at what point?
[02:17] <Da_Putzler> has anyone gotten uTorrent to work in Ubuntu with Firestarter ~?????
[02:17] <danya> Enverex, simple is relative: I got this eror :A previous installation of VMware software has been detected.
[02:18] <danya> Enverex, and there is no previous installation
[02:18] <Enverex> danya, Is there any more to the error, or is that it?
[02:19] <danya> Enverex, that's it. I typed sudo ./vmware-install.pl
[02:19] <danya> like it says in the manual
[02:19] <Enverex> danya, you dont run that
[02:20] <danya> so ? what do I do ?
[02:20] <Enverex> danya, You just install it with apt-get or synaptic package manager and thats it, there is no setup
[02:20] <BusMaster> hi. I installed Ubuntu6.06 from the cd, then I went to my sources.list and #'ed out every line, then I put in the kubuntu CD, did apt-cdrom add. It added the cd. then I did apt-get update and then tried apt-get install kubuntu-desktop. but it says package not found :( what should I do?
[02:20] <danya> Enverex ? How ?
[02:20] <Enverex> danya, How to what?
[02:21] <BusMaster> nor is kubuntu-desktop found in the Packages file in the dists folder of the CD
[02:21] <danya> Enverex, installing the VmWare workstation with synaptic
[02:21] <BusMaster> i don't want to get kubuntu-desktop from the internet when I have the CD lying in my cdrom drive
[02:21] <danya> Enverex, I was following this: http://www.vmware.com/support/ws55/doc/ws_install_linux.html
[02:22] <Enverex> danya, That's how to do it from source and stuff like that, you don't do that, you've probably made a bit of a mess now, heh
[02:22] <Da_Putzler> has anyone gotten uTorrent to work in Ubuntu with Firestarter ~?????
[02:22] <danya> Enverex... that is very comforting
[02:23] <Enverex> danya, I assume you're trying to install player rather than workstation as workstation has to be paid for and player is free
[02:23] <danya> Enverex, there is no package for that... there was some one who told me to do it here...
[02:23] <danya> Enverex, no
[02:23] <danya> Enverex, I am trying to install a 30 day trial so I could at least make something to play ...
[02:24] <danya> Enverex, I am freaking out here... do you know how to do it ?
[02:24] <Enverex> danya, You can make a drive image with qemu and then use it with player
[02:24] <danya> you sure about it ?
[02:24] <hlabs> ok how can i detect my ipod on my ubuntu machine
[02:25] <Enverex> danya, hmm, if yoou want to do it your way, go into the synaptic package manager and make sure vmware isn't installed then
[02:25] <tabman> ./install: line 10: make: command not found ... does anyone understand what it means ?
[02:25] <dmsantam> tabman, make is not installed
[02:25] <rambo3> when system is not reading .bash_profile (only startx there) whats the problem
[02:25] <moox> tabman : you have to install "make"
[02:25] <danya> Enverex, I know it is not installed because I just removed it 10 minutes ago
[02:25] <woodwizzle>  except for using xmms, or cron, are there any alarm clock apps in dapper?
[02:26] <moox> tabman: and probably a lot of other software like gcc, g++
[02:26] <Enverex> danya, hmm, not sure then
[02:26] <danya> Enverex, you made me fill really stupid now...
[02:26] <longwave> tabman: apt-get install build-essential
[02:26] <Asc> When trying to install a new kernel, do I need to make an initrd image?
[02:26] <danya> Enverex, so is it possible to "play" qemu created machines ?
[02:26] <dmsantam> Asc, no, you don't _need_ to
[02:27] <[Ex0r] > danya- don't you hate it when that happens ?
[02:27] <dmsantam> Asc, so long as you include essential drivers in the kernel, not as modules
[02:27] <Asc> brb
[02:27] <Enverex> danya, Yeah, there is a guide somewhere on the net, it basically lets you use VMWAre for freee, heh
[02:27] <dmsantam> Asc, like ext3 (assuming you use that for filesystem)
[02:27] <tabman> moox: I did install gcc then I installed AutoConfig, Automake, Libtool, what else is required ?
[02:27] <dmsantam> tabman, install build-essential
[02:27] <moox> tabman : try build-essential
[02:27] <Asc> dmsant: what are 'essential files'?
[02:28] <[Ex0r] > anyone know if there is a way to check what kind of memory is in the system through ubuntu ?
[02:28] <tabman> mooz: apt-get instal build-essential ?
[02:28] <danya> [Ex0r] , things like bad documentation made by closed source companies can make my hair gray !!!
[02:28] <jrib> rambo3: what do you mean by "only startx there" ?
[02:28] <moox> open question : Do you think game developers will support ubuntu / linux in the future ?
[02:28] <moox> tabman: yes or through synaptic
[02:29] <Asc> Eh, anyway.  I included fs types and HD drivers in the kernel.  When I try to boot it, it says gets through the 'uncompressing the kernel line' then gives...
[02:29] <Asc> Kernel Panic: Not syncing:VFS: unable to mount root fs on unknown block(0,0)
[02:29] <mwtb> Anyone know why a "mount -t cifs" would return "mount error 20=Not a directory" when the mount point is definitely a directory?
[02:30] <void^> [Ex0r] : dmidecode
[02:30] <Asc> *-says
[02:30] <[Ex0r] > void^- ?
[02:30] <Enverex> danya : http://software.newsforge.com/article.pl?sid=06/05/16/1940214&from=rss
[02:31] <[Ex0r] > ah, doesn't tell me enough
[02:31] <[Ex0r] > trying to get the speed of my ddr memory. Don't want to take apart my pc to find out
[02:31] <void^> [Ex0r] : don't think there's a way to tell without looking at it
[02:32] <[Ex0r] > darnit all
[02:33] <Winball> Hi. I have to reconnect the ethernet-connection every time I start ubuntu. Why ain't I connected to internet automaticly ?
[02:33] <dmsantam> Asc, sounds like /etc/fstab needs to be fixed to mount the correct partition as root fs
[02:34] <longwave> dmsantam: it doesn't work that way, as /etc is stored on the partition itself!
[02:34] <longwave> instead you need to pass the right root= line to the kernel
[02:35] <imme> Could someone tell me what the terminal command was for reconfiguring your X11 screen settings?
[02:35] <dmsantam> longwave, yeah, quite right. oops :)
[02:35] <Chest> guys, can the memory test that is on the ubuntu desktop cd fry your computer?
[02:35] <imme> xorg-xserver or something like that... ?
[02:35] <dmsantam> menu.lst might need to be fixed :)
[02:35] <Asc> So, the problem is probably with the *lst
[02:35] <dmsantam> Asc, yep
[02:36] <longwave> Chest: no, unless your hardware is really broken to begin with
[02:36] <dmsantam> imme, dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[02:36] <dmsantam> imme, i think :)
[02:36] <dmsantam> imme, see if it works :)
[02:36] <Asc> hm
[02:37] <imme> ah dpkg-reconfigureIt sure did, thanks dmsantam.
[02:37] <Asc> Well, this is what I have.....
[02:37] <Asc> title           Ubuntu, kernel 2.6.17-7-386
[02:37] <Asc> root            (hd0,0)
[02:37] <Asc> kernel          /boot/bzImage-2.6.17-7-386 root=/dev/hda1 ro quiet splash
[02:37] <Asc> boot
[02:37] <srikat> hello. I just installed Ubuntu...however there's no internet. How do I fix it?
[02:37] <dmsantam> imme, you're welcome :)
[02:37] <longwave> Asc: is /dev/hda1 your root partition?
[02:37] <BusMaster> do I have to install kubuntu-desktop off the net despite having a kubuntu CD?
[02:37] <Asc> longwave: yes
[02:37] <tabman> what is the shortcut key for accessing the Applications Menu ?
[02:37] <longwave> Asc: in that case it sounds like you missed compiling in a needed module for mounting the root, maybe
[02:38] <srikat> what's the root password for a fresh ubuntu install?
[02:38] <Asc> Is there a nice list somewhere of such modules? :p
[02:38] <fyrestrtr> there isn't any
[02:39] <fyrestrtr> srikat: use sudo
[02:39] <longwave> Asc: well, it depends on what hardware you have :)
[02:39] <srikat> ok, shall try.
[02:39] <longwave> and what filesystem you are using and so on
[02:39] <srikat> fyrestrtr, any idea about lack of internet in ubuntu fresh install?
[02:39] <fyrestrtr> wired or wifi?
[02:39] <srikat> wired...internet settings inbuilt in router
[02:39] <Chest> longwave: do you know the program name?  is it Memtest86?
[02:40] <fyrestrtr> srikat: have you tried the gnome-network-settings manager? system > administration > networking
[02:40] <longwave> Chest: yes i think so
[02:40] <Snake007uk> hey guys
[02:40] <Snake007uk> is there a gui manager for SSh-add?
[02:40] <srikat> ok, shall try that now
[02:40] <srikat> bbl
[02:42] <SuperMiguel> hello
[02:42] <SuperMiguel> !iso
[02:42] <longwave> Snake007uk: try the ssh-askpass package
[02:42] <ubotu> To mount an .iso image: sudo mount -o loop my.iso /some/mountpoint - bin/cue can be converted to iso with bchunk  .iso images of Ubuntu CDs can be downloaded from http://releases.ubuntu.com Always verify the .iso before burning, see http://wiki.ubuntu.com/VerifyIsoHowto or http://www.linuxquestions.org/linux/answers/LQ_ISO/Checking_the_md5sum_in_Windows
[02:43] <Snake007uk> longwave: thanks will try that
[02:43] <aimaz> anyone have any experience of squashfs?
[02:43] <Firebird8> is the repository not working or somethin?
[02:43] <Asc> Well, I'm short on ideas.  The kernel has necessary file systems, HD drivers....
[02:44] <Seveas> Firebird8, which repository?
[02:44] <Firebird8> us.archive.ubuntu.com
[02:45] <void^> Asc: ide/sata controller driver compiled in?
[02:46] <Firebird8> Seveas, i can't connect to us.archive.ubuntu.com
[02:46] <Asc> looking
[02:46] <Seveas> Firebird8, thanks for reporting -- I'll notify mirror admins
[02:46] <anonymeeee> I've set up my cups printer for sharing, what url do I use in my windowz laptop so it can access the print server?
[02:46] <Seveas> Firebird8, I can connect to it though, it's just very slow
[02:47] <woodwizzle> Is there a way to sync up tomboy on my laptop and desktop
[02:47] <woodwizzle> preferably automatically when they are on the same network?
[02:48] <ompaul> Firebird8, change us. to ie. it is rather fast from anywhere - and then you can revert later
[02:49] <Asc> IDE is... sata is apparently supported through SCSI, which is also included
[02:49] <ompaul> firebird  for IE Link 1: Current bandwidth utilisation 300.40 Mbit/s (out of 2Gb)
[02:49] <ompaul> Firebird8,  Link 2: Current bandwidth utilisation 0.00 Mbit/s (out of 2Gb) again the same place
[02:50] <Seveas> ompaul, looks like one of the 2 cluster machines is problematic
[02:50] <SuperMiguel> what is the name of the language karnel
[02:50] <Seveas> I poked the admin
[02:50] <SuperMiguel> something like that
[02:50] <SuperMiguel> how is it?
[02:50] <ompaul> Seveas, ahh
[02:50] <SuperMiguel> karnel?
[02:51] <Seveas> though it is early morning there, so he's not responding
[02:51] <Asc> If it's any help, I tried adding the old kernel's initrd to the grub lst, and it failed when it couldn't find /lib/modules/[new kernel]  instead of with a kernel panic
[02:52] <void^> Asc: well, you can use that initrd to take a good look at the kernel's bootlog
[02:52] <ompaul> SuperMiguel, please put your whole question on one line, this is not IM so your doing it front of hundreds of people, it makes it easier to follow, as for your question, "language kernel" no idea what it is you are talking about
[02:52] <Asc> void^: how?
[02:53] <void^> Asc: it should have dmesg, or shift+pgup
[02:53] <tyce> Help, open office does not start in ENGLISH !
[02:53] <srikat> I was talking w/ someone reg. lack of internet on fresh ubuntu install. He advised me to check the network settings. But to access that I need the root password
[02:53] <srikat> how do I get that?
[02:53] <snowblink> !sudo > srikat
[02:54] <srikat> I typed that and it asked me for root password
[02:54] <NthDegree> srikat, there is no root password you use your password
[02:54] <NthDegree> you put YOUR password
[02:54] <NthDegree> not the root password
[02:54] <srikat> did that and it said it's not correct
[02:54] <ompaul> srikat, the you did typo
[02:55] <ompaul> !rootsudo > srikat
[02:55] <NthDegree> sudo is not su
[02:55] <NthDegree> !rootsudo
[02:55] <ubotu> sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for all information.
[02:55] <micktm> Hi! someone know a good html editor wysiwyg?
[02:55] <srikat> oh sorry...I typed 'su' and not 'sudo'
[02:55] <NthDegree> micktm, try nvu
[02:55] <micktm> ok
[02:55] <thoreauputic> micktm:  nvu is not bad
[02:55] <ompaul> micktm, nvu gets a pat on the back from some pros I know
[02:56] <ompaul> (their managers love it ;-))

[03:09] <Ace2005> frogzoo: How do i do a traceroute?
[03:10] <Asc> Ace2005: people have been having that problem all day.  Try <IP_ADDRESS>
[03:10] <jonah1980> hi guys - i'm just clearing off files from an old system onto my new then i wanted to reformat the old computer and give it to my grandad with a fresh ubuntu on there. he won't get broadband though, how easy is it for me to set him up a nice simple dialup that will just connect him whenever he clicks on something that needs internet and disconnect him after he closes it? etc
[03:10] <Ace2005> Asc: Oh good i thought my ISP was screwing with me again for my usage
[03:10] <NineTeen67Comet> Hello all .. With these new Intel 2 Core Duo chips coming out, how long do you all think it'll take for the Linux kernel and it's applications to take advantage of the new processors strengths? I'm getting ready to build a new box, and although I've only used Ubuntu for a month, I've used Linux for a few years ..
[03:10] <Ace2005> Well not so good if you want to google something
[03:10] <frogzoo> Ace2005: sudo apt-get install traceroute ; traceroute www.google.com
[03:11] <move> NineTeen67Comet: the new "strengths" are really a load of crap, when full support does come out it'll only be 1% better at best
[03:11] <george_looney> I have a question regarding SPAM filtering?
[03:11] <longwave> NineTeen67Comet: linux will already run on core 2 duo, there is nothing "new" about them really that is unsupported
[03:12] <frogzoo> jonah1980: can't speak for it, but sounds like you need diald
[03:12] <Bonez56> Hi can anyone please help me with my problem with FreeNX? http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/19009
[03:12] <move> jonah1980: it's easy
[03:12] <george_looney> which is better - Spamassassin or Bogofilter for System-wide spam filtering?
[03:12] <NineTeen67Comet> move: aha .. N'kay .. I'm SO not an AMD fan .. I'll go ahead and work on building then .. thank you much ..
[03:12] <move> NineTeen67Comet: yep.
[03:12] <move> NineTeen67Comet: give amd a chance, they have been making faster processors for 6 years now :P
[03:13] <NineTeen67Comet> move: lol .. 4 AMD chips and 4 dead boards .. 7 Intel chips (two I built in 1997) and all doing great ..
[03:13] <Bonez56> Hi can anyone please help me with my problem with FreeNX? http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/19009
[03:14] <Ace2005> frogzoo: thanks, it looks like its google and not me
[03:14] <move> NineTeen67Comet: 4 dead boards? stop buying crap motherboards to put your precious AMD chips in.
[03:14] <NineTeen67Comet> Well, the chips died the boards were fine .. (asus boards) ..
[03:15] <move> strange. good thing amd has a warranty on all it's chips!
[03:15] <move> at least, ones that weren't improperly maintained i.e. not cooled correctly
[03:15] <NineTeen67Comet> no biggie anyhow though . I build boxes for people all the time . bout half go amd ..
[03:15] <GTX> Hello, I have been using dodgy DNS servers on my webserver. I have just updated them but some sites are still not working like its cached or something? how do I flush the dns
[03:16] <frogzoo> google went amd, btw for the flops/watt
[03:16] <[Ex0r] > alright now it's time my computer goes down for fixing
[03:17] <frogzoo> GTX: if you mean the dns ttl (time to live setting) you can
[03:17] <Bonez56> Hi can anyone please help me with my problem with FreeNX? http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/19009
[03:17] <jonah1980> easy enough for my grandad to just point and click and hooray!?
[03:17] <frogzoo> GTX: if you mean the dns ttl (time to live setting) you can't change it - once the address is released, it can only timeout
[03:17] <mcphail> GTX: I have never found ubuntu caching dns. All of my problems have been from my router. Try resetting that.
[03:17] <srikat> hello, I got internet!
[03:17] <dmsantam> srikat++
[03:17] <frogzoo> srikat: we believe you
[03:17] <srikat> all I did was 'sudo'
[03:18] <GTX> frogzoo, Basiclay. I have been using my hosts dns servers for a while, and recently there dns has mucked up and the websites thought localhost was some usa server. Now I have updated the dns servers on the web-server but lots of sites are still seeing it as that IP i think.
[03:18] <jonah1980> i'm gonna get the system setup with my ethernet broady connection first and then i can get all teh packages he might need and all the ubuntu updates etc and then pass it over to him on dialup
[03:18] <Asc> GTX: people have been having DNS problems all day, I suspect it's a larger problem
[03:18] <ftpguest> hi
[03:18] <Asc> GTX: unless they still work, in which case it's probably unrelated
[03:18] <srikat> wonder why xchat doesn't come in-built w/ ubuntu
[03:18] <Asc> g'day ftpguest
[03:18] <[Ex0r] > GTX- That has to do with the ISP's cache. Usually it takes a couple of days for them to clear.
[03:19] <SuperMigue1> : xfce is better than gnome?
[03:19] <GTX> no.. I have updated them to my own name servers and now I can do "host localhost" and it all comes out fine, but httpd is still seeing them as other ips
[03:19] <longwave> GTX: restart httpd?
[03:19] <GTX> longwave, I have many times/.
[03:19] <george_looney> how do I find out which programs installed on the system belong to "Universe"?
[03:19] <Asc> SuperM: it's a matter of opinion
[03:19] <jonah1980> srikat: it came bundled with for me, it even connects to the ubuntu chat when you open it for you, preset
[03:20] <Skaag> any ideas how to tell Rithmbox which audio device to use?
[03:20] <ftpguest> I have a (hopefully) small problem: I changed my splash screen in my Ubuntu Dapper and then clicked to log out so I could see the new splash screen in action. That worked fine so far but seconds after logging in I get automatically logged out again! I rebooted already but have still this problem. I used now a different user account which obviously does not have that problem. How can I get rid of this?
[03:20] <jonah1980> move, what should i use and is it easy enough for my grandad to just point and click and hooray!?
[03:20] <Skaag> I mean Rythmbox
[03:20] <[Ex0r] > srikat- xchat does come bundled with ubuntu. It's called xchat-gnome or something
[03:21] <GTX> [Ex0r] , Is there anything I can do to update the dns cached on httpd/php or whatever its stored on
[03:21] <move> the default install is really as basic as you get
[03:21] <thoreauputic> [Ex0r] : not in 6.06 - only gaim afaik
[03:21] <[Ex0r] > thoreauputic- Mine came with i
[03:21] <[Ex0r] > it*
[03:21] <slashdevnull> Hi, all.
[03:21] <jonah1980> hey does anyone know where the project page for listen media player is - automatix calls it a new media player for gnome but google didn't show anything up, wondering if it's anyway near to amarok yet?
[03:21] <frogzoo> GTX: any chance it's cached in the dns server?
[03:21] <move> jonah1980: I'd just use a basic install and then configure it to disconnect on firefox close
[03:21] <thoreauputic> [Ex0r] : did you update from Breezy though?
[03:21] <[Ex0r] > thoreauputic- nope. Straight from 6.06
[03:22] <[Ex0r] > dapper fresh*
[03:22] <GTX> frogzoo, no as I said I have put new ones in, and now "host localhost" actuly resolves to <IP_ADDRESS>. But apache/php still dont see it, therefore some websites dont work.
[03:22] <thoreauputic> [Ex0r] : hmm - OK - I thought a straight 6.06 had no xchat - guess I was wrong
[03:22] <Dimensions> hi when i start my ubuntu it give an error that failed to start X server ... how do i fix it ?
[03:22] <jonah1980> move: should i install it with my modem plugged into phone socket etc so it thinks that's primary internet connection first or should i just install with ethernet in and let it update first? just wondered if ethernet would confuse it at all, never used dialup on ubuntu
[03:22] <thoreauputic> [Ex0r] : mind you xchat-gnome is a castrated version of xchat anyway
[03:22] <move> ftpguest: i'd look for your gdm config and change that user's back to default
[03:22] <[Ex0r] > thoreauputic- It's a weird version of xchat,w hich is why I didn't use it long :)
[03:23] <mcphail> GTX: have you tried rebooting whatever router you are using?
[03:23] <thoreauputic> indeed
[03:23] <GTX> mcphail, This is a web-server hosted in london...
[03:23] <[Ex0r] > now i'm running mIRC through wine.
[03:23] <GTX> In a datacentre ;p
[03:23] <thoreauputic> [Ex0r] : blech :(
[03:23] <mcphail> GTX: oh dear
[03:23] <move> jonah1980: install it with LAN first and then disable the LAN after you do all the updates and configure dial up as the default
[03:23] <CarinArr> why would you want to run mirc in wine
[03:23] <slashdevnull> Dimensions: Did you try 'sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg' ?
[03:23] <jonah1980> move, thanks a lot for your help, i'll give it a go, you're a star, thanks
[03:24] <move> jonah1980: no problemo, come back if you need more help
[03:24] <mcphail> GTX: i suspect the caching will be at some intermediate point. You might have to just wait it out
[03:24] <GTX> mcphail, Thought that would be the case, Is this the DNS cache server side or nameserver side?
[03:24] <slashdevnull> Dimensions: Also, what video card does your PC have? You may want drivers that do not ship by default with Ubuntu.
[03:24] <frogzoo> GTX: the default /etc/nsswitch.conf looks at files before dns, so that's probly where apache's localhost match is coming from
[03:25] <[Ex0r] > mcphail- More than likely it is. The middle man hasn't updated their DNS yet.
[03:25] <jonah1980> move, don't suppose you know what "listen media player" is by any chance do you?
[03:25] <GTX> frogzoo, Theres just weird things in that file like "hosts:          files dns"
[03:25] <frogzoo> noone knows how to setup a 1280x800 framebuffer? I'm missing inches :(
[03:25] <[Ex0r] > alright, computer going offline. Major upgrades going into affect, including another 512 of rm
[03:25] <[Ex0r] > ram*
[03:26] <DrBashir2> ... I wish I could work on my ubuntu box from here :|
[03:26] <slashdevnull> Does anyone in here know how to make Nautilus honor umask settings? There's a bug registered in Gnome for this, but no fix that I'm aware of as of yet.
[03:26] <iGadget> hi
[03:26] <move> jonah1980: it sounds like an audio playing application but no, I don't know what it means out of context
[03:26] <frogzoo> GTX: man nsswitch.conf & be enlightened
[03:26] <srikat> how do I connect to another IRC server in x-chat?
[03:26] <srikat> in mIRC, I used to /server -m irc.whatever.net
[03:26] <move> type /server irc.whatever.com
[03:26] <frogzoo> [Ex0r] : you're just showing off :p
[03:26] <[Ex0r] > srikat- XChat->New Server Tab
[03:26] <move> oh, two at once
[03:26] <move> tricky
[03:27] <GTX> frogzoo, Yeah I've looked at it, but I dont understand how that would help ;x
[03:27] <pepsi> is there a site where i can paste pictures?
[03:27] <[Ex0r] > frogzoo- nah, i'm really leaving :)
[03:27] <mcphail> slashdevnull: afraid not: hadn't realised it was a problem
[03:27] <[Ex0r] > photobucket.com
[03:27] <pepsi> [Ex0r] , thanks
[03:27] <move> imageshack.com tooo
[03:27] <frogzoo> GTX: my point is, apache's resolving localhost from /etc/hosts - it's not looking at dns at all
[03:27] <iGadget> has anyone experienced when playing real video streams from a website, the window just turns grey?
[03:27] <pepsi> [Ex0r] , fancy seeing you here
[03:27] <frogzoo> [Ex0r] : sure sure
[03:27] <[Ex0r] > lol
[03:27] <slashdevnull> mcphail: Yeah, it's a problem. Especially in corporate environments.
[03:27] <srikat> [Ex0r] : I don't see 'xchat' menu
[03:28] <move> ...
[03:28] <move> I think he ment... file?
[03:28] <GTX> frogzoo, It was, I did "host localhost" and it came back with some weird ip, not <IP_ADDRESS> :p
[03:28] <[Ex0r] > srikat- at the verytop, it's the first menu option. Might be File
[03:28] <[Ex0r] > haven't used xchat for a bit
[03:28] <mcphail> slashdevnull: does pam-umask sort it?
[03:28] <slashdevnull> No, I don't believe so. The bug is this one: http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=327249
[03:28] <frogzoo> GTX: cat /etc/resolv.conf
[03:28] <srikat> [Ex0r] : am not sure am using the right version.
[03:29] <srikat> Is this correct? --> XChat-GNOME 0.11
[03:29] <Ksilebo> Hello, been having some strange load issues with pdflush totally killing my network share.
[03:29] <srikat> I installed it through Add/Remove programs
[03:29] <GTX> frogzoo, Yes I have changed the name servers to new ones, now its correctly resolving. But apache and php is still not updated like its cached.
[03:29] <[Ex0r] > ah, you're using xchat-gnome. Not sure about that one.
[03:29] <Ksilebo> Its a RAID5 array (software) on an Adaptec SCSI card.
[03:29] <obi-1> hello
[03:29] <Jukru> srikat: try /newserver irc.server.net
[03:29] <srikat> ok
[03:29] <slashdevnull> mcphail: I think that pam-umask doesn't work, because the devs hard-coded values into Naulilus
[03:30] <obi-1> can you guys tell me what is the dev for the PS/2 mouse port
[03:30] <SuperMigue1> 189
[03:30] <obi-1> for the serial port is /dev/ttyS0
[03:30] <srikat> Jukru: that worked. But how do I make this gnone xchat as the other one? (other one = in which ctrl+T for a new network tab)
[03:30] <mcphail> slashdevnull: it looks like binning nautilus will be the only option for the time being
[03:30] <srikat> that's the kind of xchat that came w/ Mepis
[03:31] <frogzoo> !mouse
[03:31] <ubotu> Enabling extra mouse buttons: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ManyButtonsMouseHowto  - Enabling serial mouse: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SerialMouseHowto
[03:31] <obi-1> what is the protocolo? .. IMPS/2?
[03:31] <[Ex0r] > bbl all!
[03:31] <Jukru> srikat: read some manuals...sorry...I don't use xchat
[03:31] <srikat> alright, ty
[03:32] <srikat> Jukru: if you don't mind me asking, what do you use to connect to IRC?
[03:32] <thoreauputic> srikat: just install xchat and get rid of xchat-gnome - it's too dumbed down
[03:33] <slashdevnull> mcphail: binning? Do you mean recompiling?
[03:33] <slashdevnull> Just wanna make sure we're using the same terminology. :)
[03:33] <mcphail> slashdevnull: no - using something else until they get their fingers out and sort this. It seems like a very basic error
[03:33] <slashdevnull> Ah, trash binning. :)
[03:33] <kabobuntu> any ideas why no-ip won't update my IP? do i need to open any firewall ports?
[03:34] <mcphail> slashdevnull: (although i suppose recompiling nautilus and hardcoding your own permissions might work)
[03:34] <srikat> thoreauputic: In Add/Remove Applications, when I search for 'xchat' or 'x-chat' only the gnome version is visible
[03:34] <cwill1> !search sound
[03:34] <ubotu> Found: esd, ripping, alsa
[03:34] <thoreauputic> kabobuntu: you have an account, right ?
[03:34] <slashdevnull> mcphail: Yeah. My understanding was that it was supposed to be fixed before LTS came out. This will be a Long Time Bug now, looks like. ;)
[03:34] <cwill1> !alsa
[03:34] <ubotu> If sound is not working, first try system -> prefrences -> multimedia system selector change it to alsa. If you still have problems then look at http://alsa.opensrc.org/index.php?page=DmixPlugin See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DebuggingSoundProblems
[03:34] <thoreauputic> srikat: yes - just type   sudo aptitude install xchat   in a terminal
[03:34] <Bonez56> does anyone know how to fix this error with FreeNX? NX> 1004 Error: nxagent failed to start with: Unrecognized option: 1
[03:35] <thoreauputic> !info xchat
[03:35] <ubotu> xchat: IRC client for X similar to AmIRC. In repository universe, is optional. Version 2.6.1-0ubuntu2 (dapper), package size 254 kB, installed size 720 kB
[03:35] <mcphail> slashdevnull: it is a biggie
[03:35] <thoreauputic> srikat: it's in the universe repository
[03:35] <Paddy_EIRE> does anyone know what settings that i should have set-up for optimal aMule usage
[03:35] <slashdevnull> mcphail: Agreed. If LTS is supposed to be a Vist killer, it needs to work in corporate environments. Basc Unix permissions seems like a big deal along those lines. ;)
[03:36] <mcphail> :)
[03:36] <slashdevnull> Er, basic Unix permissions
[03:36] <mcphail> slashdevnull: perhaps you could persuade the ubuntu devs to put it up as a "bounty"?
[03:36] <slashdevnull> I may just recompile for the customers I need to support this for. Such is the beauty of Open Source.
[03:36] <fyrestrtr> its not supposed to be a 'vista killer'.
[03:36] <frogzoo> Paddy_EIRE: yes - use frostwire
[03:36] <slashdevnull> mcphail: Good idea. I don't know what the process is for that, but I'll look around
[03:37] <Asc> Well.  I found the problem.
[03:38] <slashdevnull> fyrestrtr: I recall MS saying something along those lines in an interview, pre-release of LTS.
[03:38] <slashdevnull> Or, maybe I'm mis-remembering.
[03:38] <fyrestrtr> lol you most likely are.
[03:38] <longwave> asc: what was it?
[03:38] <ftpguest> Hi
[03:38] <mcphail> slashdevnull: i remember that interview
[03:38] <Asc> well, in xconfig....
[03:39] <Asc> I'd confused the 'module' and 'kernel' icons
[03:39] <longwave> aha, i see :)
[03:39] <Asc> figured the circle was kernel because it came first....
[03:39] <mcphail> But Vista was delayed even longer than Dapper!
[03:39] <Asc> Vista is not very newsworthy
[03:40] <drbreen_> asc: right
[03:40] <slashdevnull> mcphail: lol
[03:40] <frogzoo> mcphail: was? u mean is, surely?
[03:40] <mcphail> yup
[03:40] <slashdevnull> Vista is just waiting on that Duke Nukem Forever patch, and it'll be ready to roll.
 have FrostWire Installed and LimeWire Pro
[03:40] <slashdevnull> I think that Ubuntu will have WinFS before M$ gets it done.
[03:40] <ftpguest> I tried to change back the splash and so on but I still get automatically logged out a second after logging in. I also tried to log into safe mode so that the starting scripts wont be executed, no chance, I still get logged out in that particular profile. Does anyone have an idea? I didnt do much more than clicking (accidentally) three or four times on the log-out button and since that I cant log in again without being logge
[03:40] <ftpguest> d out a second later
[03:41] <frogzoo> !amule
 they both crsh the system
[03:41] <ubotu> I know nothing about amule - try searching http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi?db=ubuntu
[03:41] <Zambezi> WM-size on Java is 580 MB. Bloatware!
[03:41] <squirrelpimp> hi
[03:41] <frogzoo> Paddy_EIRE: frostwire kills you puter? that's not cool
[03:41] <drbreen_> paddy_eire: why limewire ?
[03:41] <squirrelpimp> is there a way to specify, which one of two installed display adapters will be used by usplash on startup?
 yeah i know and it used to work so well
 well i had paid for pro
[03:42] <frogzoo> squirrelpimp: blacklist the unused driver?
[03:42] <bunta> Hey people :) Got a small problem with firefox.. Everytime I seem to go onto a page which has a video on it (embended I suppose) it crashes
[03:42] <squirrelpimp> i have a crappy onboard-adapter i can't disable in bios
 thought i'd get my moneys worth
[03:42] <intelscat> where do the kernel folders come from in /lib/firmware? are they created when a driver is installed?
 aMule doesnt seem to do much
[03:42] <squirrelpimp> and i already tried just disabling usplash but i won't get the usual kernel-startup on my nvidia pcie card
[03:43] <frogzoo> Paddy_EIRE: I could never find anything worthwhile on amule, frostwire's much more accessible
[03:43] <bunta> how wud I fix this problem? :o
 sits there lookin the business but i do not know what networks this should be connecting to for optimal performance
[03:43] <kabobuntu> sorry i d/c
[03:43] <frogzoo> Paddy_EIRE: very odd if a java app is crashing your box ...
[03:43] <squirrelpimp> frogzoo: i'd expected it to be some kind of grub-switch... i can see grub... but then the screen turns black until i get a blinking cursor without a prompting text waiting for me to enter the cryptsetup-passphrase
 freezes whole system on the splash
[03:43] <slashdevnull> Gotta bounce out of here. Later, all. Thanks for the help and humor.
[03:44] <mcphail> bye
 how would i go about removing programs like LimeWire and FrostWire for Reinstallation
[03:44] <frogzoo> Paddy_EIRE: sudo dpkg --purge limewire
[03:44] <intelscat> anyone know anythng about the firmware tree?
[03:45] <frogzoo> squirrelpimp: blacklist the unused drive
 i need to learn this dpgk stuff
[03:45] <WiseOdd> im about to reinstall ubuntu, but bfore that i would like to scan my disc for virus, since alot of the files come from an infected wingdows install... does anyone know of a free online scanner, which can be used with linux?
[03:45] <squirrelpimp> frogzoo: would it be an usplash-driver? or a kernel one?
[03:45] <frogzoo> Paddy_EIRE: man dpkg, man apt-get, man apt-cache
 dpkg - warning: ignoring request to remove limewire which isn't installed.
[03:46] <frogzoo> squirrelpimp: /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist
[03:46] <Dimensions> hi i have x server startup error .... ?
 it is installed
[03:47] <Dimensions> hi i have x server startup error .... when i boot ubuntu it says failed to start X server ... i typed startx and it says no screens found ? what to do
[03:47] <frogzoo> Paddy_EIRE: sudo dpkg --purge frostwire          not sure what limewire's installed as
[03:47] <squirrelpimp> frogzoo: there is no driver loaded between selecting the kernel in grub and beeing prompted for crypsetup-passphrase which happens during fs-mount
 does it remove everything it should
[03:48] <Anon893> is there a way to install ubuntu directly from the web
[03:48] <frogzoo> Paddy_EIRE: if it's packaged properly, yes
[03:48] <SuperMigue1> how can i find program apt-parche search?
[03:48] <drbreen_> anon893: yes
[03:48] <SuperMigue1> how is that command
[03:48] <drbreen_> supermiguel: apt-cache its called
[03:48] <frogzoo> SuperMigue1: apt-cache search ?     you already have it
 is there any other way to uninstall Limewire
 perhaps its called limewirepro
[03:49] <WiseOdd> Hi all. does any1 know if theres an online virus scanner which works with linux?
[03:49] <frogzoo> Paddy_EIRE: I've never installed it, but if it's a deb, dpkg --purge PKGNAME will remove it
[03:49] <drbreen_> wiseodd: why could anyone want THAT ?
[03:49] <Enverex> Ok, another issue is that the CPU stepping program wont let me change the speed of my processor on the gnome panel as it says the module isn't loaded etc. (despite speedstep and everything modules being loaded) but I know it supports it because it worked when that laptop had Gentoo on it
[03:49] <SuperMigue1> Paddy_EIRE: apt-get uninstall limewire
[03:49] <Anon893> is there a doc on it drbreen
[03:49] <mcphail> WiseOdd: i doubt it
[03:50] <Anon893> i'm running debian but i want to install ubuntu
[03:50] <Anon893> and i cant get it to install from any of the cd's
[03:50] <fyrestrtr> WiseOdd: since most of those use ActiveX, I highly doubt any will be available for linux.
[03:50] <WiseOdd> drbreen: bcause ihve gotten alot of files from an infected wingdows install, and i DONT like virus... :)
[03:50] <fyrestrtr> WiseOdd: install clamav
 patrick@patrick-desktop:~$ apt-get uninstall limewire
[03:50] <Paddy_EIRE> E: Invalid operation uninstall
[03:50] <Anon893> how would i install it directly from the web?
[03:50] <WiseOdd> can i get it thru apt?
[03:50] <johnm1019> what is the installation ptah of firefox on ubuntu?
[03:50] <fyrestrtr> Paddy_EIRE: sudo apt-get remove --purge limewire
[03:50] <Enverex> WiseOdd, Install Klamav (KDE frontend for clamav)
[03:50] <dmsantam> !clamav
[03:50] <ubotu> I know nothing about clamav - try searching http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi?db=ubuntu
[03:51] <thoreauputic> Paddy_EIRE:  sudo apt-get remove <package>
[03:51] <WiseOdd> enverex: thx m8
[03:51] <mcphail> WiseOdd: your puny windows viruses are powerless against the might of ubuntu
[03:51] <fyrestrtr> !info clamav
[03:51] <ubotu> clamav: antivirus scanner for Unix. In repository universe, is optional. Version 0.88.2-1ubuntu1 (dapper), package size 64 kB, installed size 200 kB

[03:51] <Paddy_EIRE> It still doesnt find limewirepro
[03:52] <Paddy_EIRE> for any of these uninstall options
[03:52] <dmsantam> ubotu, it might be in universe
[03:52] <ubotu> I know nothing about it might be in universe - try searching http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi?db=ubuntu
[03:52] <fyrestrtr> Paddy_EIRE: then you didn't install it using apt or synaptic.
[03:52] <dmsantam> ubotu, universe
[03:52] <ubotu> The packages in Ubuntu are divided into several sections. See http://www.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/components https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Repositories and !easysource
[03:52] <fyrestrtr> dmsantam: ubotu is a bot.
[03:52] <srikat> text on my screen appears v. small. I tried reducing the resolution to 1024x768, but it won't take effect. How do If fix this?
[03:52] <fyrestrtr> !ubotu
[03:52] <dmsantam> fyrestrtr, yeah, im just being silly :)
[03:52] <ubotu> I am ubotu, all-knowing infobot. You can browse my brain at http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl Usage info: http://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbotuUsage
[03:52] <Paddy_EIRE> you cant install with any of these with limewire
[03:52] <Zambezi> Anyone skilled on rtorrent? I need help with the portrange.
[03:53] <fyrestrtr> srikat: check the dpi (its in the fonts settings, click on advanced)
[03:53] <Paddy_EIRE> its dl'ed from there site
[03:53] <Anon893> can anyone tell me or direct me to a file on how to install ubuntu from the web?
[03:53] <thoreauputic> !netinstall
[03:53] <ubotu> Ubuntu can be installed in lots of ways. Please see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Installation for documentation. Problems during install? See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/CommonProblemsInstall and https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DapperReleaseNotes/UbiquityKnownIssues
[03:53] <k31th> What do you guys call your servers ? boring stuff like "serv1" or more interesting names ?
[03:53] <SuperMigue1> !limewire
[03:53] <ubotu> limewire is a popular P2P client running on the Gnutella network. To get it running, install !java first, then download Limewire from http://www.limewire.com/LimeWireSoftOther and finally run runLime.sh. Consider !FrostWire as an alternative.
[03:53] <move> k31th: mine is named cuntpuncher.

[03:53] <k31th> lol move

 use easy ubuntu for mp3 support
[03:54] <move> mcphail: sorry, but that's the name of my server!
[03:54] <k31th> error relaying from "cuntpuncher"
[03:54] <srikat> fyrestrtr: it's 96 dpi
[03:54] <srikat> fyrestrtr: Increasing that will increase the txt size through out ubuntu?
 i have frostwire but it crashes my comp
[03:55] <fyrestrtr> my servers are named -- phoenix, avalon, hades, goliath, playstation and sandbox.
[03:56] <fyrestrtr> and cerberus
[03:56] <fyrestrtr> forgot about good ol' cerb
[03:56] <Paddy_EIRE> Can i get frostwire through synaptic
[03:56] <fyrestrtr> Paddy_EIRE: no
[03:56] <Paddy_EIRE> where then
[03:56] <fyrestrtr> or, rather, you can.
[03:57] <Bergcube> When I'm not working for customers who already have a set naming scheme I use names of warships.  I am for example fond of blucher.  (Yeah I know it should have been blcher, but you know... )
[03:57] <fyrestrtr> Paddy_EIRE: sudo apt-get install frostwire <-- try it, I just installed from the website.
[03:57] <Paddy_EIRE> i want to beable to remove this again, unlike limewirepro
[03:57] <Enverex> Why aren't either of them in Synaptic :(
[03:57] <quiet> why wouldn't you be able to remove them Paddy_EIRE??
[03:58] <fyrestrtr> she means not able to remove it via synaptic.
[03:58] <Paddy_EIRE> well i cant remove limewire now as it stands
[03:58] <quiet> yes you can.
[03:58] <k31th> Ok my two new ubuntu servers are being called... "santa" and "jesus" (sticking with my southpark theme)
[03:58] <quiet> use dpkg
[03:58] <Paddy_EIRE> tried a whole list of uninstall, remove, purge commands
[03:58] <mcihad> hi
[03:58] <AlbanaHelge> hi! i need help with a terratec cinergy 200 usb! i have a brilliant picture but no souns
[03:58] <mcihad> what is postgresql default password ?
[03:59] <fyrestrtr> none
[03:59] <Anon893> ubuntu > debian
[03:59] <OneSeventeen> I don't think there is a default password for postgresql
[03:59] <move> ubuntu = debian?
[03:59] <mcihad> ubuntu
[03:59] <quiet> ! = debian
[03:59] <ubotu> I know nothing about = debian - try searching http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi?db=ubuntu
[03:59] <Enverex> hmm, I think I'm going to go make a Frostwire package, let me know if anyones interested
[03:59] <quiet> lol  whoops.
[03:59] <|mp|> how do you run an app as a different user in Gnome (or from cmd line)?
[03:59] <quiet> gksudo
 dpkg, apt, all of these dont find or remove limewirepro
[03:59] <fyrestrtr> move: no, ubuntu is built on top of debian, but its not the same thing.
[04:00] <move> I know
[04:00] <fuoco> google earth exists in some repository ?
[04:00] <fyrestrtr> |mp|: sudo
[04:00] <Enverex> Paddy_EIRE, That's because it's not in the repository in the first place to add or remove
[04:00] <quiet> Paddy_EIRE, then just go relete the directory if it's obviously not a registered package.
[04:00] <move> but it's really kind of silly to compare oranges with oranges in a bowl.
[04:00] <move> they're still just... oranges
[04:00] <gordo> By default, PostgresSQL installs without a default password for the postgres user account.
[04:00] <fyrestrtr> move: brown oranges :)
[04:00] <move> I guess that's the wrong metaphor
[04:00] <Enverex> oh heh, a package already exists
[04:00] <move> and I should stop talking
 i only need to delete the directory
[04:00] <OneSeventeen> mcihad: I usually just run: $sudo su postgres  (which switches me to the postgres user, who can then run postgresql commands)
[04:00] <|mp|> fyrestrtr - sudo username appname ??
[04:00] <quiet> Paddy_EIRE, should be fine.
[04:01] <Bergcube> move~  Isn't it better to compare melons?
[04:01] <fyrestrtr> |mp|: man sudo
 will i do whereis limewirepro or something
[04:01] <AlbanaHelge> does someone use a terratec cinergy 200 usb tv card?

[04:01] <mcihad> thanks

[04:01] <mcihad> thanks <OneSeventeen>
[04:01] <ricardo> hi everybody...
[04:01] <OneSeventeen> Is Control+Shift+E reserved for something in Ubuntu?  I can't seem to use it to edit CSS using the Web Developer extension for firefox
[04:01] <Enverex> Paddy_EIRE, Unless it's in /opt then it's going to be scattered everywhere
[04:01] <fyrestrtr> treb0r: don't see why not, what's the problem?
[04:01] <hamra> how would I upgrademy whole system to latest ubuntu from version 5.04?

[04:03] <iGadget> has anyone experienced when playing real video streams from a website, the window just turns grey?
[04:03] <Enverex> Paddy_EIRE, If you don't have permission to do something, just put sudo infront of the command, i.e. "sudo nano /etc/blah.txt

 how do i locate the man for that instruction u just gave me
[04:03] <treb0r> fyrestrtr: thanks dude...

[04:07] <Jack_Sparrow> Anon893: what is the prob with the cd's
[04:07] <nvictor> thx Jack_Sparrow
[04:07] <Jack_Sparrow> np
[04:07] <Enverex> The CPU stepping program (gnome pannel app) wont let me change the speed of my processor on the gnome panel as it says the module isn't loaded etc. (despite speedstep and everything modules being loaded) but I know it supports it because it worked when that laptop had Gentoo on it. Does anyone have any ideas? I've been looking for help with this for days
[04:07] <Enverex> thenuke, It's autodetected on start
[04:07] <Anon893> the breezy ones never finish installing the base anld the dapper one installs fine but when it boots nothing happesn Jack_Sparrow
[04:07] <thenuke> Enverex: ok. I guess then that this new one was broken also :)
[04:08] <Enverex> thenuke, Does it show up with lspci?
[04:08] <Bonez56> Cigarettes?
[04:08] <Bonez56> Anyone for a Cigarette?
[04:08] <Jack_Sparrow> Anon893: so the live runs ok (Daper)
[04:08] <quiet> Anon893, can you install *any* linux to it?
[04:08] <Anon893> the live breezy is ok
[04:08] <thenuke> Enverex: I dont remember if I did try that
[04:08] <Anon893> i dont have the live dapper
[04:08] <Anon893> just the desktop
[04:08] <quiet> Anon893, i'm wondering the hard drive isn't fscked.
[04:08] <Anon893> i installed it last week and it worked fine
[04:08] <Jack_Sparrow> Anon893: What type of hard drive and is there another OS on the box and is it a PC or Mac
[04:08] <Anon893> but i reinstalled to put more swap
[04:09] <Anon893> no other os
[04:09] <Anon893> pc
[04:09] <Anon893> dell lattitude d500
[04:09] <quiet> Anon893, did you try to completely wipe the drive and repartition from scratch?
[04:09] <Anon893> is there a way to install it permanently with the breezy live cd?
[04:09] <quiet> no
[04:09] <Anon893> yea quiet
[04:09] <Jack_Sparrow> Anon893: I would try the default install and leave the swap alone.  Is there a reason you increased it..
[04:09] <Anon893> every time i boot it i try at least 17 times
[04:10] <quiet> why 17?
[04:10] <quiet> fav. # ?
[04:10] <Anon893> the first time it only gave me 500mbs so i upped it to 700 because it would lag like a b*tch
[04:10] <nvictor> Jack_Sparrow: I don't have multimedia system in my preferences :(
[04:10] <WiseOdd> hi again :) now ihve installed clamav, but damned if can find it.. where does it install to?
[04:10] <quiet> Anon893, how fast/much ram?
[04:10] <Anon893> 512
[04:10] <mcphail> WiseOdd: clamscan
[04:10] <quiet> then you're not even touching swap with a default desktop.
[04:11] <Anon893> can i install from the breezy live cd?
[04:11] <quiet> NO
[04:11] <WiseOdd> mcphail: just like that from terminal?
[04:11] <Anon893> so am i stuck with debian?
[04:11] <thoreauputic> Anon893: adding swap when you have 512MB RAM won't help performance - 500 MB swap is plenty
[04:12] <Anon893> debian installed fine
[04:12] <SeanTater> WiseOdd: yes
[04:12] <WiseOdd> mcphail: what about update virus def?
[04:12] <quiet> Anon893, you could probably change to the ubuntu repos and dist-upgrade a debian machine... might break shit... but it's worth a try i guess.
 thats also something that doesnt work for me
[04:12] <mcphail> WiseOdd: it will do it automatically
[04:12] <SeanTater> Anon893: Tried burning another cd?
[04:12] <Anon893> yea SeanTater
[04:12] <fyrestrtr> WiseOdd: it doesn't have a gui, its just scripts.
[04:13] <thoreauputic> quiet: it *will* break
[04:13] <WiseOdd> mcphail: it updates auto when running the prg?
[04:13] <Anon893> i have five breezy cd's
[04:13] <Anon893> not one of them works
[04:13] <quiet> thoreauputic, i did it before.
[04:13] <SeanTater> Anon893: why not dapper
[04:13] <quiet> just have to know what you're doing.
[04:13] <quiet> kernel first.
[04:13] <mcphail> WiseOdd: no - a daemon runs in the background (freshclam)
[04:13] <Anon893> i have one dapper i downloaded yesterday
[04:13] <fyrestrtr> WiseOdd: install avscan
[04:13] <SeanTater> Anon893 tried it?
[04:13] <Anon893> it worked installing but when it comes timree to boot it says "ok booting the kernel" and just sits the
[04:14] <thoreauputic> quiet: it worked from debian -> warty - afaik not any other  way without doing a lot of fiddling about
[04:14] <dh321> Anon893: when you say the breezy cd's dont work, do you mean they wont boot?
[04:14] <SeanTater> Anon893: that's just the bootloader
[04:14] <Enverex> Anon893, try with noapic and acpi=off options
[04:14] <quiet> thoreauputic, actually, that's probably about the time i tried it.. lol. don't rmember for sure.
[04:14] <Anon893> no they boot dh321 but while installing the base sytem they get to 87% and quit or when they are installing packages it gets to 98% and quits
[04:14] <thoreauputic> quiet: right  :)
[04:15] <Anon893> Enverex, how do i change acpi to off?
[04:15] <dh321> Anon893: i see
[04:15] <dh321> Anon893: its a boot option
[04:15] <thoreauputic> acpi=off I think
[04:16] <quiet> i think noacpi works too
[04:16] <Anon893> i have a second laptop running ubuntu is there anyway i can install it from that?
[04:16] <Anon893> i have a ethernet cross over cable
[04:16] <Jack_Sparrow> thoreauputic: that is correct
[04:16] <dh321> Anon893: i think you can either change it in your grub.conf (or menu.lst) file, just add noacpi to the kernel options
[04:16] <SeanTater> maybe this will help
[04:16] <quiet> Anon893, are the laptops identical?

[04:16] <neuro-> Does anyone have any experience with a Linksys WMP54G PCI Wireless card + Ubuntu 6.06 AMD64?
[04:17] <Anon893> one is a d500 and one is a d505 quiet
[04:17] <quiet> Anon893, that means nothing to me.
[04:17] <SeanTater> neuro-: I've had one similar
[04:17] <quiet> hard drive same size?
[04:17] <SeanTater> neuro-: oops -- my fault -- not linksys, broadcom
[04:17] <Anon893> dell lattitude d500 is the one that wont intall and a latitude d505
[04:17] <neuro-> yeah it uses the broadcom chipset SeanTater
[04:17] <radam> hi. does ubuntu use SELinux?
[04:17] <Anon893> pretty much identical except for screen size
[04:18] <SeanTater> neuro-: have you tried wifidocs

[04:21] <SeanTater> neuro-: ubuntu.com has had some problems recently
[04:21] <lucas> hi. how do i solve this?: since i removed kde, my gnome looks this way: http://img101.imageshack.us/img101/9182/sinnombrecu1.pnggnome
[04:21] <quiet> Anon893, of so... mount an smb share from windows to breezy live cd on the laptop.
[04:22] <neuro-> :tinfoil-hat!:
[04:22] <Jack_Sparrow> neuro-: No just slow  it is a Gates Conspiracy

[04:22] <PingunZ> Where are the bootchart images located ( the .png ones that tell you your boot time )
[04:22] <frogzoo> Anon893: think of it as a router with low latency
[04:23] <fusionxn1> Hello everyone!
[04:23] <PingunZ> hi fusionxn1
[04:23] <Anon893> is it possible to upgrade to ubuntu from debian?
[04:23] <PingunZ> yes
[04:23] <PingunZ> Anon
[04:23] <Anon893> if i add a repository in synapitic can i download the ubuntu kernel?
[04:23] <PingunZ> Anon893,  just do sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop
[04:23] <fusionxn1> Going to be finishing my testing on ubuntu then i may just format ;)
[04:23] <frogzoo> Anon893: you'd be better off to do a clean install
[04:24] <move> lucas: you mean... it's in french?
[04:24] <quiet> Anon893, (as sudo)  mkdir /mnt/win ; mount -t smbfs //winxpboxname/sharename /mnt/win -o ip=<ip of win machine>
[04:24] <harurenu> I see that nvidia-glx is proprietary... from the net, but where can I get it, if not from ubuntu or nvidia?
[04:24] <frogzoo> !nvidia
[04:24] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BinaryDriverHowto
[04:24] <fusionxn1> Does the PSP work fine on ubuntu?
[04:25] <quiet> Anon893, assuming that works okay... (you can ls /mnt/win to see if you can view data on the windows share)
[04:25] <ompaul> Anon893, it would be better if you did a backup of your home
[04:25] <lucas> move: no, it doesnt look the same way. the menus are more squeared...
[04:25] <move> oh
[04:25] <quiet> Anon893, BTW... you are to be running the livecd on the one that already has ubuntu installed on it.
[04:25] <move> I see
[04:25] <Anon893> alright quiet
[04:26] <Anon893> i'll try it
[04:26] <move> I thought that's what you might have ment.. but the french thing was too obvious
[04:26] <quiet> Anon893, then, you can (again, as sudo)    dd if=/dev/hda of=/mnt/win/ubuntu-disk.img
[04:26] <quiet> that will take a long time...
[04:26] <quiet> probably... over an hour.
[04:26] <ompaul> Anon893, I would not, I would say backup and do a clean install if you have lots of stuff I have a one liner here to id all your packages installed
[04:26] <fusionxn1> Any idea why skype takes a while to launch??
[04:26] <quiet> it will be an exact image of your hard drive...  including partitons and MBR and everything.
[04:26] <fyrestrtr> its skype, that's why.
[04:26] <Anon893> i have nothing on this computer
[04:27] <fusionxn1> lol
[04:27] <ompaul> fusionxn1, use the 1.3 beta it is a lot better and as fyrestrtr staid
[04:27] <lucas> move: do u know how to solve this?
[04:27] <Anon893> i just installed debian and i really dont like it
[04:27] <RogerBacon> hey,yesterday i configure my ipconfig table and today i ave nothing rule . Tanks for u help
[04:27] <Anon893> so there's no worries about losing anything
[04:27] <fusionxn1> Well for PC to PC calls what do you recommend
[04:27] <ompaul> Anon893, then just install ubuntu cleanly
[04:27] <Anon893> i cant
[04:27] <drbreen_> why ?
[04:27] <move> lucas: nope. sorry.
[04:27] <quiet> Anon893, then, boot the livecd on the one you want ubuntu on... follow steps to mount windows share(make sure you can see the ubuntu-disk.img)
[04:27] <PingunZ> why cant you ?
[04:27] <Anon893> the discs dont work
[04:27] <quiet> Anon893, then, dd if=/mnt/win/ubuntu-disk.img of=/dev/hda
[04:27] <quiet> then, reboot tht laptop
[04:27] <PingunZ> ok there is a thread about this on ubuntuforums.org
[04:28] <quiet> you should have an exact clone of the other laptop
[04:28] <Jack_Sparrow> Anon893: Identify Installed Packages  dpkg --get-selections >out.txt to save list <out.txt to reinstall them
[04:28] <quiet> Anon893, think you can handle that?
[04:28] <Anon893> i'll try
[04:28] <quiet> k
[04:28] <Anon893> i wrote it down just in case
[04:28] <Anon893> thanks
[04:28] <quiet> np
[04:28] <fusionxn1> Does anyone know why firefox has a different icon to windows?
[04:29] <Jack_Sparrow> CHange it
[04:29] <quiet> the hardest part will probably be getting the windows hare mounted... but that command should work... if you have any trouble... google and man mount
[04:29] <fyrestrtr> fusionxn1: because its part of the ubuntu theme
[04:29] <quiet> fusionxn1, there are lot of firefox icons... you can find some nice ones on gnome-look
[04:29] <fyrestrtr> and for a more practical reason, this ain't windows.
[04:29] <fyrestrtr> it doesn't need to be ugly.
[04:30] <Jack_Sparrow> Haha
[04:30] <fusionxn1> What do others use for PC-2-PC calling?
[04:30] <Jack_Sparrow> Morning fyrestrtr
[04:30] <fyrestrtr> afternoon jack
[04:30] <fyrestrtr> 5:30 PM here :)
[04:30] <SuperMigue1> does any one know something about limewire?
[04:30] <Jack_Sparrow> fusionxn1: skype is still not ready for prime time, but they are working on it
[04:31] <quiet> SuperMigue1, 'something' like what?
[04:31] <frogzoo> fusionxn1: ekiga on dapper
[04:31] <fyrestrtr> SuperMigue1: sure, its called frostwire.
[04:31] <fusionxn1> Jack - cheers is there an alternative?
[04:31] <Jack_Sparrow> NOne that I am aware of
[04:31] <fyrestrtr> fusionxn1: try the good ol' telephone.
[04:31] <SuperMigue1> when i donwload music using limewire or frostwire and try to play it it doesnt look good it just reapeat the same part of the song 1000 times
[04:31] <fusionxn1> fyre - lol seriously
[04:31] <frogzoo> fusionxn1: or there's asterisk
[04:32] <Zambezi> Anyone know how to restart an iPod? It just crashed.
[04:32] <taylor> wth.
[04:32] <fusionxn1> k ill google that
[04:32] <proffrinx> hey, if I want to execute terminal commands (checkgmail) when I login to ubuntu/gnome, should I put that in a .login file?
[04:32] <treb0r> fyrestrtr: i have beagle installed now, how do I tell it index the smb shares? They don't appear to be mounted even though i can open them in nautilus...
[04:32] <proffrinx> restart an ipod by holding the center button and up
[04:32] <fyrestrtr> or, do as I do -- I installed skype on my phone, and use my data plan with my provider to make all long distance calls using skype. Saves on phone bills, plus don't need to have a laptop lugging around.
[04:32] <Anon893> thanks for all the help
[04:32] <fusionxn1> Zamb i- what generation
[04:32] <frogzoo> proffrinx: try .gnomerc
[04:32] <proffrinx> you the best
[04:32] <fyrestrtr> treb0r: it will index by default everything, beagle is a bit tricky. Check the docs for it.
[04:32] <treb0r> ok
[04:33] <geo_> are there any good script writers here...I am looking for a script that would allow me to connect to good old British and American rock stations
[04:33] <treb0r> any smb gurus online? How is it possible to index a share for searching?
[04:33] <proffrinx> do I have to give it any specific permissions or anything? set to executable? wave a chicken over it?
[04:33] <fyrestrtr> geo_: connect to do what? listen to music?
[04:33] <fusionxn1> Zambezi?
[04:33] <geo_> yes
[04:33] <Jack_Sparrow> Zamboni
[04:34] <Asc> geo_: are we talking about radio stations or internet streams?
[04:34] <fyrestrtr> geo_: use amarok, rhythmbox, or any other various players.
[04:34] <fyrestrtr> proffrinx: chicken might help.
[04:34] <frogzoo> proffrinx: 700 is fine
[04:34] <RogerBacon> hey iptables d'ont use ipv6 only ipv4 ?
[04:34] <proffrinx> all I have is "chicken in a biscuit" crackers, I'll try those
[04:34] <geo_> radio stations...at one time I was a windows (eh) user and I ran winamp and could listen to my favourite radio stations,  and I am not sure how to do that in Ubuntu
[04:34] <proffrinx> thanks for all the help, I'm going to go try that
[04:35] <fyrestrtr> proffrinx: although, for safety reasons, we don't recommend you handle any foul without protection. Wear rubber gloves, or ... use a rubber chicken. Up to you, effect is the same.
[04:35] <fyrestrtr> geo_: install xmms and you'll be right at home.
[04:35] <gatekeeper> geo_: amarok and http://www.shoutcast.com/
[04:36] <fyrestrtr> geo_: or beep-media-player, or amarok, or rhythmbox -- many choices. Welcome to the Wal*Mart of media players. Always Low Prices, Always.
[04:36] <geo_> many many thanks
[04:36] <move> beep-media-player is sweeeet
[04:36] <frogzoo> RogerBacon: that would be ip6tables
[04:36] <fyrestrtr> treb0r: #samba maybe
[04:37] <move> winamp with alll the goodness and not he bloat
[04:37] <move> although global hotkeys wouldn't have killed them
[04:37] <fyrestrtr> maybe they considered that bloat.
[04:37] <pantaloon> wish they would port foobar2000
[04:37] <harurenu> got it... I think
[04:37] <harurenu> rebooting, thanks a lot guys
[04:37] <fyrestrtr> pantaloon: what does that do?
[04:37] <RogerBacon> frogzoo :    iptables - administration tool for IPv4 packet filtering and NAT ..... man iptables
[04:37] <pantaloon> too may itunes clones imho
[04:37] <frogzoo> RogerBacon: that would be ip6tables
[04:38] <RogerBacon> thx
[04:38] <pantaloon> fyrestrtr, its an music player...totally customizable
[04:39] <fyrestrtr> pantaloon: oh, thanks. THAT helped.
[04:40] <CyDrive> Does anyone know of a sound control like the one in windows?
[04:40] <fusionxn1> Erm asterisk dont work?!
[04:40] <quiet> CyDrive, like.. gnome volume control?
[04:40] <fyrestrtr> fusionxn1: first, do you know what it is?
[04:40] <Seveas> CyDrive, applications  sound and video  volume control
[04:40] <geo_> okay next question best way to back up my whole harddrive?  and easy to use
[04:41] <Jack_Sparrow> CyDrive: Like a mixer?
[04:41] <Seveas> !backup > geo_
[04:41] <quiet> CyDrive, or alsamixer (in console)
[04:41] <fusionxn1> i read the readme and followed it and when it comes to launch it i get: bash: asterisk: command not found
[04:41] <CyDrive> quiet: yeah like a mixer but affects all my sounds
[04:41] <frogzoo> geo_: man tar
[04:41] <fyrestrtr> fusionxn1: just answer my question, please. Do you know what it is?
[04:42] <quiet> CyDrive, there are both gui and console ones... alsamixer in console... the primary mixer...but you can also use gnome volume control... i believe it's hidden by default... add it with alacarte
[04:42] <frogzoo> geo_: also apt-cache search backup
[04:42] <fusionxn1> No need to get pushy - frogzoo said to try it for pc-2pc calls
[04:42] <Jack_Sparrow> HOw do I execute a binary file in term?
[04:42] <quiet> ./
[04:42] <fyrestrtr> yeah, but did you find out what it was before you just installed it, and then complained that it didn't work?
[04:42] <Jack_Sparrow> tk
[04:43] <fusionxn1> fyre - it wont launch?!!
[04:43] <fyrestrtr> fusionxn1: lol, I guess the answer to my question is a "no".
[04:43] <fusionxn1> huh?
[04:43] <fyrestrtr> do you even know what it is? what it does? what it is used for?
[04:43] <fusionxn1> calling another PC?
[04:44] <fyrestrtr> !info asterisk
[04:44] <ubotu> asterisk: Open Source Private Branch Exchange (PBX) - dummy package. In repository universe, is optional. Version 1:<IP_ADDRESS>.dfsg-2ubuntu3 (dapper), package size 213 kB, installed size 560 kB
[04:44] <fyrestrtr> its a PBX software. Its not yahoo voice chat or some such.
[04:44] <fusionxn1> oh ok
[04:44] <fyrestrtr> uninstall it, its not going to solve your problems.
[04:44] <fusionxn1> No use to me then
[04:45] <fyrestrtr> and next time, *research* the suggestions before you blindly install them.
[04:45] <imme-emosol> So would anyone know why my cd/dvd-writer won't work while my cd-drive does?
[04:45] <Nilvio> how i install .run file ?
[04:45] <fyrestrtr> Nilvio: what program is it?
[04:45] <Nilvio> ati
[04:45] <Nilvio> ati drivers
[04:45] <fyrestrtr> Nilvio: read the wiki
[04:45] <Nilvio> ok
[04:45] <fyrestrtr> !ati
[04:45] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BinaryDriverHowto
[04:45] <frogzoo> methinks you can run asterisk as a voip client - would just take some fiddling
[04:45] <fusionxn1> fyre on there site i says: open source telephony
[04:46] <hypnox> fusionxn1 check out gizmo and skype and ekiga
[04:46] <fyrestrtr> fusionxn1: lol -- maaan, read the rest of the site; or just read the 'supported hardware' section.
[04:46] <frogzoo> fusionxn1: the thing about asterisk is it does everything ^ 2
[04:47] <hypnox> aye asterisk is more of a framework, its not something the average user wants to mess with
[04:47] <fusionxn1> thanks frog and hypnox. Fyre take it easy im still learning geez
[04:47] <fyrestrtr> frogzoo: its *very* complicated to setup, you need special hardware, special lines, and a dedicated machine. Its not chatting software that does voice.
[04:47] <timalot> i upgraded to dapper now my soundcard is not working... any ideas?
[04:47] <fyrestrtr> fusionxn1: yes, and let this be a lesson to you -- always find out what it is that you are installing. Just because its Linux, doesn't mean you can't screw up your system :)
[04:47] <frogzoo> fyrestrtr: asterisk supports special hardware, but it's not required
[04:47] <fusionxn1> Hey hypnox - is there any screenshots of gizmo
[04:48] <hypnox> google for gizmo
[04:48] <frogzoo> fyrestrtr: openwrt runs asterisk
[04:48] <frogzoo> fyrestrtr: that's on a $100 AP
[04:48] <fyrestrtr> frogzoo: dude ...
[04:48] <fusionxn1> fyre - i know but it was recommended and wanted to try it - i couldnt install it anyway
[04:48] <frogzoo> I know, I know...
[04:49] <mathieu_> is there a program that allows you to break down directories by filesize to make these files easily burnable to a cd ?
[04:49] <fusionxn1> Is there a linux program like dvd decrypter?
[04:50] <imme-emosol> Would anyone know why my cd/dvd-writer won't work while my cd-drive does?
[04:50] <mathieu_> i guess i'm looking for a script
[04:50] <fusionxn1> Hypnox can you help
[04:51] <fusionxn1> I says error: dependency is not satisfiable: libsipphoneapi
[04:51] <fyrestrtr> mathieu_: du --max-depth=1 will get you your directory listing.
[04:51] <fyrestrtr> !dvd > fusionxn1
[04:51] <mathieu_> fyrestrtr: yes, but I then want the script to break down directories into 650mb sizes
[04:51] <fusionxn1> Thanks fyre.
[04:51] <vvlaw> how to mount the Stroge Card ?
[04:52] <fusionxn1> What does error: dependency is not satisfiable: libsipphoneapi mean
[04:53] <Anon893> what is dappers kernel ?
[04:53] <fusionxn1> Nevermind
[04:53] <fyrestrtr> 2.6.15
[04:54] <fyrestrtr> fusionxn1: means you are missing a program that the system needs inorder to install whatever it is you are currently trying to install.
[04:54] <fusionxn1> fyre - ya i got it :)
[04:54] <fusionxn1> its under troubleshooting on the site
[04:54] <fyrestrtr> hopefully you are still not trying to get asterisk to work.
[04:54] <fusionxn1> no - gizmo
[04:55] <drbreen_> uname -a
[04:55] <fyrestrtr> ah gizmo :)
[04:55] <drbreen_> Linux [censored]  2.6.15-26-386 #1 PREEMPT Mon Jul 17 19:52:53 UTC 2006 i686 GNU/Linux
[04:55] <drbreen_> !gizmo
[04:55] <ubotu> I know nothing about gizmo - try searching http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi?db=ubuntu
[04:55] <fusionxn1> drb - i got it :)
[04:55] <fyrestrtr> !info gizmo
[04:55] <ubotu> Package gizmo does not exist in dapper
[04:55] <Anon893> i think i'm about to royally f up my computer
[04:56] <gatekeeper> Anon893: mine is: 2.6.15-26-386
[04:56] <Anon893> i replaced debians source.list with ubuntu's and now i'm trying to upgrade to dapper
[04:56] <drbreen_> !info ekiga

[04:56] <fusionxn1> Its installing now :)
[04:56] <fyrestrtr> Anon893: wth why are you doing that?!
[04:56] <drbreen_> anon893: good luck !
[04:56] <Anon893> this will be a miracle
[04:57] <fyrestrtr> if it works, yeah.
[04:57] <gatekeeper> Anon893: that should prove entertaining :-)
[04:57] <Anon893> because i dont like debian fyrestrtr and i cant install ubuntu
[04:57] <fyrestrtr> but it won't :)
[04:57] <fusionxn1> w00t
[04:57] <Anon893> lol gatekeeper
[04:57] <Anon893> could anyone give me a list of all the kernel packages installed on dapper?
[04:57] <drbreen_> anon893: i upgraded to dapper per isdn connection - took several days. THAT is hard.
[04:57] <fyrestrtr> Anon893: there is only one that installs.
[04:57] <spiderworm> anyone here have the intel 3945abg wireless card?  mine... randomly has disappeared
[04:57] <gatekeeper> fyrestrtr: he like living dangerously :-)
[04:57] <G8trWork> Is there a good site comparing the Desktop to the Server version, meaning what you get and what you don't get?
[04:57] <Anon893> i have a huge list of kernels
[04:58] <fyrestrtr> gatekeeper: I guess he's bored.
[04:58] <gatekeeper> must be
[04:58] <fusionxn1> Is gizmo free pc-2-pc calling then?
[04:58] <Anon893> i took off anything that said sarge or 2.4.27-2
[04:58] <fyrestrtr> G8trWork: you don't get the graphical interface, other than that, its pretty much the same thing.
[04:58] <G8trWork> so theres no gui at all fyrestrtr?
[04:59] <fyrestrtr> G8trWork: and with the graphical interface, I mean the desktop and all its applications (no openoffice, no firefox, etc.)
[04:59] <G8trWork> why is that?
[04:59] <fyrestrtr> G8trWork: some people would argue the command line was a gui, but yes, there is none. You can install one later though.
[04:59] <G8trWork> oh, so you can install one..
[04:59] <fyrestrtr> because its a server. You don't use the server to write your cooking recipies.
[04:59] <gatekeeper> Anon893: been using linux for long?
[04:59] <snowblink> G8trWork, get server, then if you want the desktop apt-get install ubuntu-desktop
[04:59] <Anon893> four weeks
[04:59] <G8trWork> Im trying to get into the server side of linux, but Im a server 2003 guy at work
[04:59] <G8trWork> thats all I know
[04:59] <Anon893> lol
[05:00] <Anon893> this should be interesting
[05:00] <gatekeeper> Anon893: going to end in tears!
[05:00] <fusionxn1> !dvd
[05:00] <ubotu> See http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/desktopguide/C/video.html. Libdvdcss can be found at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/SeveasPackages
[05:00] <Anon893> probably
[05:00] <fyrestrtr> G8trWork: to be honest, anything that you can do on the 'server' install, you can do on the desktop install too. Server is just a trimmed down, minimal install of all the critical files ubuntu needs.
[05:00] <Anon893> at least i'll get rid of debian
[05:00] <fyrestrtr> !restrictedformats > fusionxn1
[05:00] <Anon893> theoretically this could work though right?
[05:00] <Anon893> i mean its just upgrading the kernel
[05:01] <fyrestrtr> Anon893: doubt it, since the packages are named differently.
[05:01] <fusionxn1> fyre??
[05:01] <Anon893> oh well
[05:01] <Anon893> here's hoping
[05:01] <gatekeeper> Anon893: you are about to find out the hard way
[05:01] <fyrestrtr> ...how theoretical it is ;)
[05:02] <fyrestrtr> G8trWork: in the linux world, a gui is strictly *optional*
[05:02] <Anon893> god have mercy
[05:02] <Anon893> 1,869 files
[05:02] <frogzoo> tee hee
[05:02] <Anon893> 7 hours
[05:02] <fyrestrtr> its not mandatory like Windows, since in linux -- the gui components are not part of the core system. You can, at any given time, remove all of the X server system and still have a functioning machine.
[05:02] <Anon893> i've got time
[05:03] <fyrestrtr> Anon893: you'll need more than 7 hours. That's "theoretical" time.
[05:03] <Anon893> true
[05:03] <Anon893> this is exciting
[05:03] <Enverex> When Edgy comes out, I heard about being able to run 32bit and 64bit programs on it at the same time, now will I be able to upgrade from 32bit Dapper to that version of Edgy or will I need to be on 64bit Dapper?
[05:03] <frogzoo> Anon893: seriously, this is not a worthwhile effort
[05:03] <gatekeeper> Anon893: what sort of internet connection have you got?
[05:03] <rub> i want to let my users use msn messanger without proxy, what rules should i put in my firewall and how to know what address is using msn messanger?
[05:03] <fyrestrtr> suggest you pop in something like .... History of the World Part I
[05:03] <Anon893> dsl
[05:03] <mcphail> Enverex: you can run 32 and 64bit progs at present
[05:04] <fyrestrtr> Enverex: you can do that currently, it just takes a bit of an effort.
[05:04] <gatekeeper> Anon893: how fast?
[05:04] <fyrestrtr> rub: just open the ports.
[05:04] <Anon893> not sure
[05:04] <Anon893> it varies
[05:04] <rub> what port use msn messanger
[05:04] <Anon893> i think in the 100/kbs range
[05:04] <fyrestrtr> rub: you can google the ports, I don't remember, but its a whole bunch of them.
[05:04] <Anon893> sometimes more
[05:05] <rub> how should i seek in google, how should i ask ?
[05:05] <Enverex> fyrestrtr, I don't want to hear the word "CHROOT"
[05:05] <Enverex> heh
[05:05] <fyrestrtr> rub: http://www.google.com/search?q=msn+proxy+configuration+port+ranges
[05:05] <rub> thanks
[05:05] <Enverex> But anyway, I've decided to switch to dapper 64bit but I'm currently on dapper 32bit, is there any easy way of "switching" or upgrading?
[05:06] <fyrestrtr> you know lots of things don't work in 64 bit, right?
[05:06] <fyrestrtr> I think flash is a dead duck in 64 bit.
[05:07] <frogzoo> Enverex: you'll find 64bit not so pleasant on the desktop
[05:07] <Enverex> fyrestrtr, Other than Flash and some emulators I wasn't aware of anything
[05:07] <fyrestrtr> I don't know about upgrading, but switching should be ... as easy as downloading the kernel and setting it up. Then you might have to re-install stuff.
[05:07] <Enverex> Grrr, Gentoo worked well in 64bit, heh
[05:07] <wildman> hello
[05:07] <fyrestrtr> Enverex: I heard its only for the true enthusiasts, like Anon over there.
[05:08] <wildman> is the guy that was asking yesterday why gnome was slowing his disk around?
[05:08] <frogzoo> wildman: what's the answer?
[05:08] <Enverex> hmm, I'm just bored and want something to do, heh, I've installed everything in Synaptic that looks interesting and I can't find anything to do
[05:08] <wildman> frogzoo, http://blogs.gnome.org/view/ryanl/2006/07/27/0 looks to be the answer...
[05:09] <frogzoo> wildman: cheers
[05:09] <wildman> file access monitor accessing the disk 10 times a second :P
[05:09] <magical_trevskyy> hi, can somebody help me, my ubuntu box appears to have locked me out
[05:09] <fyrestrtr> Enverex: hey, you could try switching to debian!
[05:09] <fyrestrtr> Enverex: that'll keep you occupied.
[05:09] <paniq> hey there. i want to downgrade from edgy back to dapper. how can i do that?
[05:09] <magical_trevskyy> I booted up, logged in and everything seemed fine, then I tried ssh'ing into the box, and it hung after I entered my pass
[05:09] <fyrestrtr> you and Anon893 could swap tips.
[05:09] <paniq> i changed already back all deps
[05:09] <magical_trevskyy> and sudo hangs
[05:09] <wildman> frogzoo, you knew about that already?
[05:09] <paniq> but it doesnt downgrade the packages
[05:10] <Enverex> fyrestrtr, Well that would be kinda counter productive
[05:10] <gatekeeper> fyrestrtr: the answer to the flash problem with 64bit: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FirefoxAMD64FlashJava
[05:10] <Enverex> I'd make packages but it's kinda just infuriating me and making me want to break things, heh
[05:10] <gatekeeper> fyrestrtr: have to do the same for mplayer codecs etc
[05:10] <magical_trevskyy> is there any backup way I can login, or any reason why my password has stopped working?
[05:10] <fyrestrtr> magical_trevskyy: you tried to ssh into the same machine you were logged into?
[05:10] <magical_trevskyy> fyrestrtr, yeah
[05:10] <fyrestrtr> Enverex: see that stuff if you want to switch.
[05:10] <magical_trevskyy> but I can't even login to it locally now
[05:11] <LoneShadow> can someone help me, I think I messed up my apt-get repos ??
[05:11] <fyrestrtr> magical_trevskyy: what did you type? and is this a fresh install?
[05:11] <magical_trevskyy> I just get 'login timed out after 60 seconds;
[05:11] <Enverex> fyrestrtr, I saw it
[05:11] <magical_trevskyy> fyrestrtr, nope it's been working for ages, but I just had a power cut and it restarted
[05:11] <fyrestrtr> !easysource
[05:11] <ubotu> source-o-matic is a webpage where you can (re)generate your sources.list - http://www.ubuntu-nl.org/source-o-matic
[05:11] <AaronShaf> How do I list currently running processes?
[05:11] <wildman> AaronShaf, ps
[05:11] <fyrestrtr> AaronShaf: ps aux
[05:11] <AaronShaf> thanks
[05:11] <magical_trevskyy> I managed to log in at first, but now I can't get in at all
[05:11] <rub> i am looking for one way, my proxy server doesnt disconnect my client, was difficult to me find one solution like timeout, could someone helpv me ?
[05:11] <fyrestrtr> magical_trevskyy: what happens?
[05:12] <frogzoo> wildman: nope - it's interesting - i've had to resort to the console to save batteries - now i know why
[05:12] <LoneShadow> can someone take a quick look at http://pastebin.ca/102334 ?
[05:12] <magical_trevskyy> fyrestrtr, it's at a terminal type screen (no x), and when i enter my username and pass, it sits there for a minute, then says login timed out
[05:12] <pike_> AaronShaf: you can use the apropos command to search for stuff like that like apropos processes
[05:12] <AaronShaf> k, thanks
[05:12] <user-land> Enverex, i am looking for someone who could make a VLC package with .amr support: http://wiki.videolan.org/index.php/Common_Problems#AMR
[05:12] <wildman> frogzoo, didn't read it all (will do after lunch) maybe there's a way to solve it :)
[05:12] <Enverex> user-land, hmm
[05:13] <fyrestrtr> magical_trevskyy: hrmm.....
[05:13] <user-land> it is an audio format for encoding voice messages/recordings.
[05:13] <Enverex> Does anyone know if someone's made an Ubuntu package for OoLite? (the Debian one doesn't work because of needing  libc6 which it doesn't see even if installed)
[05:13] <magical_trevskyy> fyrestrtr, it doesn't give any bad password errors or anything, it just does nothing at all :<
[05:13] <fusionxn1> dvd:rip installed :)
[05:13] <fusionxn1> Doesnt look too good tho
[05:14] <magical_trevskyy> fyrestrtr, locally it's now sat at a login screen, but ssh just worked o____O
[05:14] <gatekeeper> LoneShadow: is your system hosed?
[05:14] <fyrestrtr> magical_trevskyy: do a file system check.
[05:14] <magical_trevskyy> fyrestrtr, so that should give me a chance to fix whatever is breaking local login, if I knew what it was
[05:14] <magical_trevskyy> how would I do that?
[05:14] <fyrestrtr> LoneShadow: setup your hostname properly
[05:14] <fyrestrtr> fsck
[05:15] <magical_trevskyy> /dev/hda1 is mounted.
[05:15] <magical_trevskyy> WARNING!!!  Running e2fsck on a mounted filesystem may cause
[05:15] <magical_trevskyy> SEVERE filesystem damage.
[05:15] <LoneShadow> fyrestrtr: I have a setup my hostname, while installing mysql over chroot, I might have typed the wrong hostname
[05:15] <fyrestrtr> type 'hostname' what does it give you?
[05:15] <LoneShadow> it gives msntvcf
[05:15] <apoka> Hi
[05:15] <LoneShadow> this is a diskless setup, nfs boot
[05:16] <magical_trevskyy> fyrestrtr, I'm guessing running fsck is a bad idea?
[05:16] <flodine> has anyone upgraded there dapper to kernel 2.6.17 ?
[05:16] <CarinArr> i'm using whatever kernel's the latest
[05:16] <LoneShadow> gatekeeper, fyrestrtr: do you know what those errors mean ?
[05:17] <frogzoo> 2.6.15 in the repos
[05:17] <fyrestrtr> magical_trevskyy: try sudo tune2fs -c 2 -C 2
[05:17] <fyrestrtr> then reboot the machine
[05:17] <magical_trevskyy> ok, thanks :)
[05:17] <LoneShadow> about the postfix scripts
[05:17] <flodine> CarinArr you mean 2.6.15
[05:17] <Enverex> fyrestrtr, Can you think of any fun stuff for me to play about with?
[05:17] <CarinArr> yeah if that's the latest in the repository
[05:17] <CarinArr> ;)
[05:18] <mathieu_> i recently upgraded my kernel to get an SD card working that did not work with the stock ubuntu kernel, now my printing and scanning does not work as regular user. does ubuntu do something to the kernel to get things things to run as user ?
[05:18] <fyrestrtr> LoneShadow: don't know as I am not a postfix user, but it seems you have other issues with apt. Shutdown postfix before you run that command again and see if that helps.
[05:18] <apoka> the lastest version in the repo: linux-image-2.6.15-23
[05:19] <flodine> i guess Edgy Eft is the only way to get upgraded
[05:19] <frogzoo> mathieu_: device permissions?
[05:19] <fyrestrtr> Enverex: XGL :)
[05:20] <mathieu_> frogzoo: i don't know, the only thing that i changed was the kernel, and now I need to run xsane as root ...
[05:20] <mc__> is ubuntu.com still down?
[05:20] <fyrestrtr> mathieu_: still part of scanner group?
[05:20] <Enverex> fyrestrtr, Meh, that'll just break 3D
[05:20] <fusionxn1> ANyone tried vobcopy?
[05:20] <fyrestrtr> yeah then you can play around to get it working. Extra points if you have an ATI card.
[05:20] <gatekeeper> mc__: think so
[05:20] <apoka> When is available the XGL stable release?
[05:21] <fyrestrtr> apoka: ask in #xgl :)
[05:21] <apoka> XD
[05:21] <mc__> hm well,than can someone point me out how to geht quicktime working with ubuntu?
[05:21] <fyrestrtr> !restrictedformats > mc__
[05:21] <RogerBacon> apoka : impossible , i run ubuntu drapper with 2.6.15-26-386 and official depo
[05:21] <GTX> How do I install java?
[05:21] <taw> hello
[05:21] <fyrestrtr> !java > GTZ
[05:21] <fyrestrtr> !java > GTX
[05:21] <tristanmike> mc__: you need the w32codecs
[05:21] <taw> what can be possible reasons for acroread not working ^^; ?
[05:21] <mathieu_> fyrestrtr: i don't know, but when i reboot with the stock ubuntu kernel the scanner works as a normal user, but then i reboot with the vanilla kernel and xsane only runs as root
[05:21] <mc__> fyrestrtr, ubuntu.com is down...
[05:22] <taw> it shows splashscreen, then quits
[05:22] <apoka> RogerBacon, Woooooow I've that update XD sorry XD
[05:22] <tristanmike> !w32codecs > mc__
[05:22] <RogerBacon> apoka : np
[05:22] <taw> 7.0.1-0.0.ubuntu1 on dapper
[05:22] <apoka> RogerBacon, ?
[05:22] <mc__> tristanmike, already got that package
[05:22] <Enverex> fyrestrtr, Ubuntu.wiki is down
[05:22] <gatekeeper> mc__: bits of it are
[05:22] <fyrestrtr> ah rats, not again.
[05:22] <tristanmike> mc__: "sudo dpkg -i <packagename.deb>"
[05:22] <flodine> ubuntu.com is working
[05:22] <fyrestrtr> Seveas: ??
[05:22] <RogerBacon> apoka : np = no problem
[05:23] <mc__> tristanmike, i already installed it
[05:23] <apoka> RogerBacon, ok :) XD
[05:23] <Seveas> fyrestrtr, 'sup?
[05:23] <fyrestrtr> site's down again.
[05:23] <tristanmike> mc__: than what's the trouble ?
[05:23] <fyrestrtr> maybe you could inform someone.
[05:23] <Seveas> did that already
[05:23] <mc__> tristanmike, i cant play *mov files
[05:23] <LoneShadow> ok I uninstalled postfix, which is uninstalling mysql-server as well, and the problem went away
[05:23] <fyrestrtr> oh, okay thanks :)
[05:23] <tristanmike> mc__: what program are you using ?
[05:23] <LoneShadow> why does mysql-server require mailx and postfix ?
[05:23] <ricardo> hi..does anybody uses MATLAB under WINE?
[05:23] <mc__> tristanmike, mplayer
[05:23] <rarj> is there any way to set emacs to read lotus notes emails ?
[05:23] <flodine> if ubuntu repository is so good why wont it let me have the new kernel like fedora
[05:23] <apoka> The XGL channel is dead XD
[05:24] <mc__> flodine, you can have the new kernel with edgy
[05:24] <fyrestrtr> flodine: because this is not fedora.
[05:24] <flodine> lol
[05:24] <mc__> flodine, but dapper is stable not bleeding edge
[05:24] <tristanmike> mc__: really ? and it won't play .mov's ? that's odd because Mplayer comes with those codecs prebuilt into it, it doesn't even use the w32codecs
[05:24] <flodine> then the repository need help
[05:24] <GTX> fyrestrtr, could you tell me here site isnt loading for me
[05:24] <fyrestrtr> mc__: you could also try vlc player, that plays almost anything.
[05:24] <prox3h> Hey Room , i just installed Ubuntu for the first time but im getting login errors after install. Anyone care to help? :)
[05:24] <Trojan_Horse> hey where do i get wma codecs
[05:24] <mc__> tristanmike, well maybe its a bug then,if i start to play a mov i see some strange colors
[05:24] <LoneShadow> can someone do "apt-get -s install mysql-server" and see if its simulating install of mailx and postfix ?
[05:24] <longwave> flodine: 2.6.17 is in edgy, you need that if you want to stay bleeding edge
[05:25] <gatekeeper> flodine: there are howto's to build kernels in the ubuntu forums
[05:25] <tristanmike> mc__: do you have a particular link ? or is it locally on your computer ?
[05:25] <frogzoo> flodine: sometimes less is more...
[05:25] <tristanmike> mc__: I have no trouble watching trailers off of quicktime.com
[05:25] <fyrestrtr> GTX: sudo apt-get install sun-java5-jre sun-java5-plugin
[05:25] <mc__> tristanmike, http://homepage.mac.com/svc/LispMovies/index.html
[05:25] <prox3h> Hey Room , i just installed Ubuntu for the first time but im getting login errors after install. Anyone care to help? :D

[05:26] <mc__> !ask > prox3h
[05:26] <bobovski> hi all
[05:26] <fyrestrtr> !anyone
[05:26] <ubotu> A large amount of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..."  Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out?
[05:26] <prox3h> its telling me that it was unable to create the /bin/.gnome2/ dir
[05:26] <prox3h> with permission denied
[05:26] <flodine> frogzoo dont be so sure of that my bank says im broke and my rent is due

[05:27] <bobovski> how do I burn mp3 files directly to an audio cd...I've tried serpentine, k3b etc, but none of them will load any mp3 file
[05:27] <prox3h> also $HOME/.dmrc. should be owned by user and have 644 permissions
[05:27] <bobovski> seems to be a problem with plug-ins but I have all the libs I can find
[05:27] <tristanmike> bobovski: you need to add mp3 support
[05:27] <GTX> fyrestrtr, do I need anything else to get it to work in firefox?
[05:27] <bobovski> tristanmike: okay, how do I do that?
[05:27] <fyrestrtr> GTX: that should be it, afaik.
[05:27] <apoka> because don't try Automatix?
[05:27] <GTX> ok thanks fyrestrtr :)
[05:27] <tristanmike> bobovski: did you follow the restricted formats wiki to install mp3 playback ?
[05:28] <apoka> Automatix repository: deb http://www.beerorkid.com/automatix/apt dapper main
[05:28] <bobovski> tristanmike: no, not yet. let me take a gander

[05:29] <bobovski> tristanmike: where do I find that wiki, please?
[05:29] <gatekeeper> bobovski: don't know if there is an eqivalent gnome app for those of us that use kubuntu it's K3b then sudo apt-get install libk3b2-mp3
[05:29] <bobovski> tristanmike: thanks

[05:37] <taw> jonah1980_2: you can use the same cable for both hard drive and dvd
[05:38] <taw> jonah1980_2: as long as one of them is set to master and other to slave
[05:38] <prox3h> taw: http://pastebin.com/758231 can you check that error for me please
[05:39] <jonah1980_2> taw, even with two dvd drives in there?

[05:41] <kalm> how can we remove it?
[05:41] <fusionxn1> Is there anyway to get to the folder "drive_c" that wine uses?
[05:41] <taw> prox3h: is $HOME even set ?
[05:41] <kalm> 'cause the package is essential
[05:41] <goatmale> fusion

[05:43] <dribble> native matlab exists for linux
[05:43] <taw> Dr4g prox3h: i don't know, but /home on livecd is probably not the same as /home on the actual instalation
[05:43] <jereth_da_lion> hello can someone please help me
[05:43] <rabbit7> hey there.. im looking for some server monitoring utility alike the one which comes with freebsd for ubuntu server
[05:43] <taw> Dr4g prox3h: so it's rather natural that you don't see /home/<your usename> when you boot from livecd
[05:43] <SuperMoonMan> so I've been hanging waiting to go into the live cd for a long time
[05:43] <Dr4g> taw, i mean loaded liveCD, mounted the linux partition we just installed.. and created it.

[05:45] <squidgy> Hi.  I have a problem in which searches typed into the google search bar from firefox take approx. 5 minutes to appear, but going to www.google.com is instantaneous.  Any ideas on how to troubleshoot?
[05:45] <Bergcube> jereth_da_lion~  Is this a Compaq server?
[05:45] <jereth_da_lion> hmmm ok thanks
[05:45] <prox3h> Dr4g: you're welcome to come up to my house and fix it for me :))

[05:46] <voraistos> Bergcube: maybe this guy is working for compaq ;)
[05:46] <SuperMoonMan> hmm can anyone help me with this problem of not being able to boot the live cd? I've burned the iso right and there aren't any errors, but it still won't go into ubuntu, it hangs on the screen right before that
[05:46] <taw> squidgy: is firefox going to www.google.com or some other google domain ?
[05:46] <Bergcube> voraistos~  ROTFL!
[05:46] <Dr4g> did it work? or output errors
[05:46] <Dr4g> profoX`,
[05:46] <Dr4g> prox3h,

[05:47] <Dr4g> good
[05:47] <rabbit7> anybody ? a simple server monitoring tool ??

[05:48] <Dr4g> prox3h, because i created it
[05:48] <thegoldenaura> Hi there. I have installed Ubuntu 6.06 Server version. Now i would like to install Gnome, what windowserver should i install? XFree86 or XOrg? Thanks
[05:48] <Dr4g> lol profoX`
[05:48] <profoX`> ;)
[05:48] <ricardo> pike_: already tried...no luck
[05:48] <Dr4g> cd into your home DIR prox3h
[05:48] <prox3h> niceone Dr4g
[05:48] <squidgy> taw: I'm not sure.  What's the easiest way to check?  Do I need to run a packet sniffer?  (Also:  gaim suddenly won't log into my google talk account)
[05:48] <prox3h> im in
[05:48] <prox3h> :)
[05:49] <taw> squidgy: just enter something in firefox search box and check the address bar :-)
[05:49] <SuperMoonMan> *tear* would someone mind helping me figure out what the issue is as to why it is hanging on this screen
[05:49] <Dr4g> prox3h, type "sudo chown ./dmrc"
[05:49] <longwave> tokenbad: you should install libwww-perl
[05:49] <prox3h> missing operand after ./dmrc
[05:49] <longwave> oops i typed that a while back and forgot to press enter
[05:49] <Dr4g> hmm
[05:50] <rabbit7> server monitoring tool ? anybody.. id like to get a mail every day and one every week about the status of my server
[05:50] <Dr4g> prox3h, type this: sudo chmod 644 .dmrc
[05:50] <rabbit7> syslog entries ssh connection failures etc
[05:50] <Dr4g> in /mnt/nix/home/proxy
[05:50] <Spec> rabbit7: zenoss
[05:50] <Spec> rabbit7: or bigbrother (not 100% free)
[05:50] <prox3h> cannot acces '.dmrc': No such file or directory
[05:50] <Spec> rabbit7: or openSmart (probably your best bet)
[05:50] <Dr4g> ok
[05:51] <Spec> rabbit7: but that's 24/7 monitoring, it can send pagers/e-mails/etc when something goes down, etc etc
[05:51] <longwave> rabbit7: or logcheck, or logwatch, or munin if you want pretty graphs... there's lots of options
[05:51] <prox3h> man i need a ciggi :< wanna do this though :)
[05:51] <squidgy> taw:  well, when the result finally appears, it's www.google.com.  But it displays a blank tab with the spinning throbber for up to 5 minutes before that appears.  When I open a new tab and just type www.google.com, it instantly displays, even if I refresh to ensure that I'm not loading from cache.
[05:51] <Dr4g> prox3h, "!sudo chmod 755 /home/{your username}"
[05:51] <Roconda> Hey, when I install (k)ubuntu on a computer I got (Uncompressing Linux ... crc error -- System halted) someone knows a solution?
[05:51] <rabbit7> Spec: thx for the tipps :)

[05:52] <Dr4g> prox3h, "sudo chmod 755 /mnt/nix/home/proxy"
[05:52] <fusionxn1> Submitted bug.
[05:52] <prox3h> yeah that one worked
[05:52] <taw> squidgy: well, i have no clue except that it can be a dns problem
[05:52] <longwave> Roconda: that means your installation media is bad, redownload/reburn it
[05:52] <prox3h> Dr4g: that one worked m8
[05:52] <Dr4g> cool hold on
[05:52] <prox3h> kk
[05:52] <prox3h> can we take a break man

[05:52] <Roconda> longwave: ok sec... got more cds
[05:53] <Dr4g> prox3h, your call but you might not get help when you return
[05:53] <Dr4g> whats more important, fixing ubuntu, or a cig
[05:53] <prox3h> im still here
[05:53] <squidgy> taw:  if it is indeed a DNS problem, this implies that it's upstream of me (at my ISP) and that there's not nothing I can do to fix it, correct?
[05:53] <jereth_da_lion> is it possible to make a cd to boot tnto a hard drive installation ?
[05:53] <prox3h> fixin this
[05:53] <prox3h> tbh

[05:54] <k31th> Guys im building an array here using software raid. raid1 using two sata 250 gig disks... its going very slow 1004k/sec
[05:54] <k31th> any idea why so slow ?
[05:54] <Snake007uk> how on earth can i turn off the shiftbackspace key combo killing X?
[05:55] <c|int> I have been trying to have wireless on linux, since last year when I got the laptop and Acer really and broadcom. disappoint me
[05:55] <Dr4g> prox3h, try "sudo chown /mnt/nix/home/proxy/.dmrc"

[05:55] <Dr4g> k
[05:55] <Bergcube> jereth_da_lion~  You can do that with the Live Ubuntu CD and chroot from it.  (Every time I've used chroot it's been while reading a howto so that's all the help I can offer.)
[05:55] <Dr4g> "sudo chmod 644 /mnt/nix/home/dr4g/.dmrc"
[05:55] <Dr4g> prox3h,
[05:55] <c|int> can anyone help me..
[05:55] <c|int> plz
[05:56] <longwave> Snake007uk: in your X config file, add Option "DontZap" "True" to the ServerFlags section

[05:56] <jereth_da_lion> crroot?
[05:56] <jereth_da_lion> please explain ?
[05:56] <prox3h> chmod: cannot access '/mnt ....' : No such file or directory
[05:56] <c|int> why couldn't of been an ahteros, or ralink.. wy why :(

[05:56] <Dr4g> your typing it wrong
[05:56] <vpenafab> ola
[05:56] <anTiX_> hi! I'd like to remove a physical volume from my LVM... but I just get "Physical volume /dev/hdb not found" when running "sudo pvmove /dev/hdb". any ideas? it does exist when I check with fdisk..
[05:56] <Dr4g> type "cd /mnt/" and then do a "ls"
[05:57] <Dr4g> prox3h,
[05:57] <longwave> c|int: what have you done so far to try and get it working?
[05:57] <prox3h> done
[05:57] <prox3h> in /mnt
[05:57] <longwave> c|int: have you installed the bcm43xx firmware, for example?
[05:57] <Dr4g> is "nix" there ?
[05:57] <prox3h> yes
[05:57] <jorge232> how can i install kubuntu from ubuntu? isn't there a simple ne command?
[05:57] <Dr4g> ok
[05:57] <c|int> pretty much everything.. I erased my hard drive and all, not even running windows no more, only vmware, etc
[05:57] <Bergcube> jereth_da_lion~  chroot is a bash command to "move" the running system.  From the CD you can do chroot <something> to starts running the system on the HD instead........
[05:57] <Roconda> Hey, when I install (k)ubuntu on a computer I got (Uncompressing Linux ... crc error -- System halted) someone knows a solution? (its not my cd)
[05:57] <c|int> yep
[05:57] <Dr4g> "cd nix/home/proxy" prox3h
[05:57] <prox3h> uhuh
[05:57] <c|int> also, my wireless is named, eth0, and my ethernet is , eth1
[05:57] <longwave> c|int: so what errors are you getting, or what isn't working?
[05:57] <Bergcube> jereth_da_lion~  But as I said, I have only used it off howtos, so I don't really master it.  Yet.  I hope.
[05:57] <jereth_da_lion> ok ok
[05:58] <Dr4g> prox3h, "sudo chown .dmrc"
[05:58] <oskude> Roconda: so the "check cd" option on the cd said its ok ?
[05:58] <c|int> I tried taht extractino thing, with the fwcutter, and that didn't work for me
[05:58] <jereth_da_lion> so it can be done from within the live cd enviroment
[05:58] <longwave> jorge232: "sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop"
[05:58] <prox3h> still getting a missing operand
[05:58] <jereth_da_lion> but you dont know the command line ..
