[06:40] <drunken> what's the correct way to share a folder for several users with read/write access in ubuntu? i created a new group (share), added all users that should be able to access the folder. then i did a sudo chown :share /path/to/myfolder -R and sudo chmod 1777 /path/to/myfolder -R. every user can read files in the folder, however, if someone creates a file, it belongs to the user who creates the file...

[06:41] <LjL> pip: uhm, when you installed nvidia-glx, did you see any other packages being upgraded? or did you install anything "linux" or "restricted" in the end?

[06:42] <pip> LjL: nope i just installed "nvidia-glx" and there wasnt any other package who came with it i think
[06:42] <LjL> pip, uhm, that doesn't sound like it's the problem

[06:46] <jmx> wow thanks... bye
[06:46] <rausb0> nuts7: which terminal type is it?
[06:47] <rickyfingers> jmx: no you're not a retard, but if the directions said to just download and then type ./flash-installer, they skipped a couple steps
[06:47] <nuts7> It worked until a few moments ago dunno, its gnome-terminal.

[06:53] <darko3d> ubuto please help me, the script u pointed me too didn't work
[06:53] <Agrajag> darko3d: ubotu is a bot
[06:53] <hou5ton> if there is a place to plug in the phone cord, does that mean there is necessarily a card behind it?
[06:53] <Agrajag> not a person
[06:54] <darko3d> lol, i guess it's ljl who sent me the pm
[06:54] <darko3d> Ljl please help me, the script u pointed me too didn't work
[06:54] <minimec> Kris: ok. It could be, that you don't have the nm-applet installed. This software is quiet nice to have. Load synaptic (sudo synaptic) and search for nm-applet. If it is not installed, install it.

[07:11] <Juxt> can someone tell me if there's a LIDS package for ubuntu?

[07:12] <dream> i dawn load wowo is fatastik this os
[07:12] <roryy> Guard] [an: you can make /bin/sh point to bash instead.  The install script should, however, use #!/bin/bash and not #!/bin/sh for its she-bang
[07:13] <Williamts99> jmx, also as minimec pointed out, there is a beta version of Flash out, which does clear up some issues with Flash videos being out of sync, though remember it is in beta.

[07:16] <cdubya> yoyoG, when someone says man tar or another command after the word man, it means that when you enter that in a terminal it will give you the manual page on what you're trying to use. The man pages are helpful to help you understand how to use it.
[07:17] <Williamts99> !man

[07:26] <yemu> hi, i'm looking for a gnome applet which would show connected usb drives and would allow to disconnect them safely? anyone knows something like that?
[07:26] <jamincollins> anyone know of a way to change the MAC address assigned to a bridge interface and/or a means of executing a specific script/command when an ethernet cable is connected or removed?
[07:26] <Williamts99> nette, have you looked to see if it was supported?
[07:26] <nette> Williamts99, i didn't actually find that scanner with the C3100 number, but i found photosmart.
[07:26] <jamincollins> yemu: USB drives should be automounted and display on the desktop
[07:26] <cdubya> yemu, uh, I use gnome and they show up on the desktop
[07:26] <nette> Williamts99, it works staright away in fedora.. now i'm on ubuntu
[07:26] <jamincollins> yemu: then right clicking should provide an Eject option
[07:27] <Williamts99> yemu, you can right click and choose eject
[07:27] <yemu> jamincollins: yes i know, but to do that i need to uncover my desktop
[07:27] <yemu> and then rightclick
[07:27] <yemu> actually for me its not a problem
[07:28] <jamincollins> yemu: there is the desktop button in the lower right, or any nautilus window
[07:28] <yemu> but i'm preparing a machine for a "windows-convert"
[07:28] <yemu> :-)
[07:28] <jamincollins> err make that lower /left/ by default
[07:28] <Williamts99> yemu, also can do it from nautilus, Places>Computer
[07:28] <jamincollins> yemu: the "show desktop" button isn't new to windows users
[07:28] <yemu> and i want her to easily switch to linux
[07:28] <yemu> ok, you're right
[07:29] <minimec> yemu: you can unmount them doing 'nautilus computer:'
[07:29] <Williamts99> nette, which version of ubuntu are you using?
[07:29] <yemu> but they're also used to applet with usb drives
[07:29] <nette> Williamts99, 6.10 edgy
[07:30] <Williamts99> yemu, the lovely thing about Gnome is that you don't need on with it.
[07:30] <jamincollins> some idea, just different place... and for many windows users they are used to just yanking the drive
[07:30] <drwahl> hello?

[07:31] <Gorlith> i have a ATI Radeon 9700, does anyone know whats the highest success guide for setting it up? : /
[07:31] <mcquaid> whats a good util/cmd to compare two text files and output any differences?
[07:31] <jamincollins> no one here familiar with ethernet bridging?

[07:31] <yemu> jamincollins: a little
[07:31] <drwahl> hey... i am having problems with rythmbox... i was wondering if any could lend some assistance...
[07:31] <mcquaid> jamincollins, i just tried diff and it showed no output, do I have to manually pipe it to a file?
[07:32] <jamincollins> mcquaid: diff file1 file2
[07:32] <mcquaid> ya thats what i did
[07:32] <mcquaid> hmm
[07:32] <jamincollins> then according to diff the files are the same
[07:32] <jamincollins> there is also cmp
[07:32] <jamincollins> cmp file1 file2
[07:32] <jamincollins> but it will only tell you if the files are different, not the specific difference
[07:32] <mcquaid> i know these files aren't so i'll try again, must be something i did
[07:32] <Fuzzy76> Anyone know what might cause X to abort on startup with "no devices found"? Kubuntu 6.10 with open-source radeon driver on laptop with ati x600
[07:33] <Williamts99> nette, sent you a private message

[07:33] <jamincollins> yemu: you familiar with bridging?  if so, any idea on how to control/change the MAC the bridge interface gets
[07:33] <_azrael> Fuzzy76: There's a device section in your xorg.conf Something's wrong with it, but I don't know exactly what. Can you dump it to a pastebin?
[07:34] <_azrael> Fuzzy76: (the xorg.conf)
[07:34] <Juan> Hello
[07:34] <bunnythebunny> Hello
[07:34] <jamincollins> bunnythebunny: I simply installed xmms and used it instead of rythmbox
[07:34] <Fuzzy76> _azrael: Not right now, the machine's at my job. :p I couldn
[07:34] <_azrael> Ah.
[07:34] <bunnythebunny> jamincollins, well, that is an alternative but...i don't know, i guess that would be sort of evading the problem.
[07:34] <Fuzzy76> _azrael: Not right now, the machine's at my job. :p I couldn't get on IRC from it. Hence my question here. :-/
[07:34] <Juan> Has Ubuntu inside the TeteX distribution?
[07:34] <mcquaid> ok diff worked that time, but I guess i need a more intelligent diff, because if one line is different it reports all the following lines as different even though they appear in both files
[07:35] <jake_-> hi guys, can anyone pls point me to right direction for getting my wlan interface to show up in networking
[07:35] <jamincollins> mcquaid: diff -au file1 file2 # should give context
[07:35] <Fuzzy76> _azrael: But the xorg.conf is generated with dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg. But it didn't autodetect my card, I had to choose "ati" manually
[07:35] <cherubiel> Fuzzy76: i would start from /var/log/Xorg.0.log

[07:35] <jamincollins> bunnythebunny:  I didn't want to fight with rythmbox when I knew xmms would work...
[07:36] <Juan> Please, has Ubuntu the Tetex distribution and fortran compiler?
[07:36] <yemu> jamincollins: i'm afraid I don't know how to control MAC adress

[07:36] <cherubiel> Juan: ^^
[07:36] <_azrael> Fuzzy76: Obviously you'd use ATI instead, but your section should use somthing like that.
[07:36] <jamincollins> seems the bridge interface defaults to the highest MAC of all interfaces within it
[07:37] <_azrael> Fuzzy76: Oh, and you do know the ati driver is called "fglrx", right?
[07:37] <Fuzzy76> _azrael: I think it did. I'll take a look at it tomorrow.
[07:37] <rooti1> hi, tell me, when putting something to /opt, in my case azureus, where do i have to create the starter file to get it into my application menu ? :D
[07:37] <jamincollins> that is with eth0 and eth1 having ...:89 and ...:8A respectively, the bridge will have ...:8A
[07:37] <bunnythebunny> Thanks wiliamts99
[07:37] <WonderWal> uhh i have a wireless network card, and a normal ethernet card. how do i distinguish between the two in my interfaces file?
[07:37] <FredSambo> the proprietary ati driver is called fglrx
[07:37] <_azrael> Fuzzy76: _not_ "ati" in the driver slot?
[07:38] <jamincollins> which presents a problem when eth0 (...:89) is  a wireless interface
[07:38] <Fuzzy76> _azrael: Yes. Fglrx did work on the machine earlier. But I wanted to revert in order to get xinerama to work, since the built in pseudo-xinerama in fglrx forced same resolution on both displays.
[07:38] <Williamts99> No problem bunny
[07:38] <dade`> i installed ubuntu kernel source from apt-get, how to apply all patches ?

[07:39] <Williamts99> anushsh, where is bangalore?
[07:39] <Williamts99> anushshs, just kidding :-)
[07:39] <_azrael> Fuzzy76: While I don't know personally, I've heard of very few people getting proper results from the open source versions of ATI. (sorry)

[07:40] <jamincollins> minimec: yes, I would like to alter the MAC of the bridge

[07:42] <bunnythebunny> --install? im not sure either
[07:42] <nick`> "Couldnt find package winrar"
[07:42] <roryy> fwiw, i recommend aptitude instead of apt-get
[07:42] <minimec> jamincollins: so I don't understand what you want ... sorry.
[07:43] <FredSambo> are your repositories enabled?
[07:43] <miss> ciaooooooooooo
[07:43] <nick`> sudo apt-get install winrar isnt working =[
[07:43] <FredSambo> aptitude is cool, but for winrar it doesn't really matter
[07:43] <jamincollins> minimec: a bridge is virtual interface combining multiple physical interfaces into one
[07:43] <ross> miss
[07:43] <miss> ciaoooooo
[07:43] <FredSambo> nick, are all of your repositories enabled?
[07:43] <miss> mi sono ripresa!!!!!!!!!!!!
[07:44] <kitche> anyways it's not called winrar it's called just rar
[07:44] <nick`> Fredsambo: not sure but, when i try to sudo apt-get update, the last line says "W: You may want to run apt-get update to correct these problems"
[07:44] <Williamts99> nick`, winrar?
[07:44] <nick`> its done this before but i forgot how to fix it
[07:44] <minimec> jamincollins: ...and every physical interface must have a special mac adress ... Is that so?

[07:45] <Williamts99> nick`, I don't think that WINrar exists for linux, you might be looking for unrar though
[07:45] <minimec> jamincollins: so writing a script that gives every interface this special mac adress win't work?
[07:45] <ross> stasera cosa mangio?
[07:45] <lupo> non so

[07:46] <jamincollins> minimec: not against the br0 (bridge) interface.... but you've given me an idea
[07:46] <kitche> nick`: sure you can just intall unrar
[07:46] <Williamts99> nick`, yes, then sudo apt-get install unrar
[07:46] <lupo> che cosa con patate

[07:46] <ross> idem con patate
[07:46] <nick`> and i get this

[07:48] <LjL> Ubotu, please tell lupo about it
[07:49] <minimec> theD3viL: Have a look at the preferences of your tv-software. maybe you have to change the video output.

[07:49] <d0uglas> i know my hd is broking but is there a way out
[07:49] <theD3viL> minimec, oh, you think Composite and svideo?
[07:49] <jamincollins> well, that didn't work
[07:50] <Williamts99> nick` it's not winrar it's unrar
[07:50] <minimec> theD3viL: no. somwthing like x11 or glx.
[07:50] <ross> lupooo
[07:50] <nick`> Williamts99: Look at line 85
[07:50] <theD3viL> minimec, hm..where to change that? And what is it ?
[07:51] <kitche> nick` have you done sudo apt-get update?
[07:51] <FredSambo> nick try: sudo unrar -el file.rar
[07:51] <minimec> theD3viL: Go to the preferences of your tv software and look for something like video-outpu or so.
[07:51] <martyyyr> what do I need to make an xsession start up script  visible to the login manager?
[07:51] <jamincollins> so, let's look at the other end... anyone know how to trigger a script when the ethernet cable is removed or connected?
[07:52] <Williamts99> nick`, enter sudo apt-get install unrar into a terminal
[07:52] <nick`> kitche: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/32160/
[07:52] <minimec> jamincollins: have a look at /etc/network/interfaces. This is the old debian way ;)
[07:52] <nick`> Williamts: Look at the first paste
[07:52] <jamincollins> minimec: I'm very familiar with that file... it won't do what I need...
[07:53] <kitche> nick`: ok I see the part with the update most likely it can't find the package list in those repos
[07:53] <martyyyr> my xsession lasted less than 10 seconds, because it couldn't find the startup file that I want for xgl... but the file exists...
[07:53] <minimec> jamincollins: so I cannot help you ;)
[07:53] <nick`> kitche: so what do i do
[07:54] <FredSambo> nick`, i didn't have to install unrar, it was already on my install by default.
[07:54] <kitche> nick`: edit your source.list so you are using good repos
[07:54] <nick`> FredSambo: Me too, but, its not letting me extract rars
[07:55] <kitche> FredSamb: if you look he's using hoary
[07:55] <B_166-ER-X> i need help,i cannot find anything on this... I installed beryl, on a Edgy. All works fine, but my Gdesklets behave weirdly, i CANT but them down the 1/3 ofthe screen, it just wont.... i dont understand why, anyidea?
[07:55] <nick`> kitche: how
[07:55] <FredSambo> hoary!  wow
[07:55] <FredSambo> sorry
[07:55] <Williamts99> nick`, you should clean up your sources.list
[07:55] <nick`> Williamts99: how
[07:55] <Williamts99> there is an online generator at ubuntu.nl I think, hold on, I will get you a link
[07:55] <nick`> ok
[07:55] <kitche> nick`: http://www.ubuntulinux.nl/source-o-matic
[07:56] <kitche> Williamts99 got it already :)
[07:56] <martyyyr> yay for the dutch :)
[07:56] <Williamts99> that was quick kitche
[07:56] <martyyyr> my xsession lasted less than 10 seconds, because it couldn't find the startup file that I want for xgl... but the file DOES exist.  any sugestions?
[07:56] <nick`> kitche: And what am I doing with this?
[07:56] <kitche> Williamts99: I was on that page before you said anything
[07:57] <Williamts99> lol
[07:57] <orangefly> does anyone know a way to backup full data files from windows to the server....???....i need files updated hourly....
[07:57] <kitche> nick`: you have to redo your source.list that page will help you make one then you must put source.list in /etc/apt/
[07:57] <Williamts99> nick`, also have you thought about upgrading to a more up to date Ubuntu?  Like Dapper or Edgy?
[07:58] <Williamts99> nick`, the command to edit your sources.list would be sudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list
[07:58] <roryy> orangefly: windows has a task scheduler; Control Panel -> Schedule Tasks (I think).  You'll need to make a share available on the (Ubuntu?) server using Samba
[07:58] <lunaphyte_> why does /etc/init.d/apache2 force-reload sometimes take an eternity to run?
[07:58] <nick`> Ugh this is making no sense to me lol
[07:58] <Abst> Is there a program to rrecord a video of my screen?
[07:59] <Running_aim> hello..who can tell me the difference between beryl and xgl
[07:59] <Williamts99> nick', on that webpage, select your ubuntu version, and enter your country code
[07:59] <dade`> beryl is a window manager
[07:59] <nick`> US i assume
[07:59] <nick`> lol
[07:59] <dade`> xgl is the X server
[07:59] <orangefly> i have a share.....windows backup doesn't copy full files accessable by others....
[07:59] <dade`> with gl acceleration
[07:59] <minimec> Running_aim: xgl is an x-server. Beryl is a software that needs xgl or aiglx
[08:00] <kitche> Running_aim: xgl is an overlay of X server ,and also if you have nvidia you don';t need xgl or aiglx
[08:00] <Williamts99> nick`, then pretty much check the boxes and choose give me sources.list
[08:00] <minimec> Running_aim: ... that means... aiglx is an x-server module too ...
[08:00] <martyyyr> any experts on xsessions?
[08:00] <nick`> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/32161/ is what I got Williamts99
[08:01] <kitche> Running_aim: aiglx is Xorg's version of XGL pretty much
[08:01] <dade`> you are all confunsing this poor lame
[08:01] <Williamts99> nick`, you will then copy that to your sources.list file on your computer, using the command I gave you earlier, it will bring up your sources.list file, just have to replace it with the newly generated list
[08:02] <Running_aim> i am using an ati radeon card..do i need to install both beryl and xgl or can i use beryl without xgl?
[08:02] <Williamts99> nick`, looks like you didn't check the boxes :-)
[08:02] <FredSambo> it is amazing how something as simple as unrar can be so easy for some and so difficult for others.
[08:02] <FredSambo> i love linux
[08:02] <dade`> Running_aim: can you be more specific about the radeon card you use, and what distro ?
[08:02] <minimec> Running_aim: It depends of the card you have. Newer cards need xgl... older ones may work with aiglx.
[08:02] <kitche> Running_aim: you need xgl or aiglx
[08:03] <nick`> Williamts99: I did too! =p
[08:03] <Running_aim> because i installed both beryl and xgl but when i go to login i get an error message saying that i have been in for 10sec and that it has to quit
[08:03] <Williamts99> nick`, do you know how to send a PM?
[08:03] <minimec> Running_aim: Tell us the card you have in your computer.
[08:03] <Running_aim> it is ati radeon 345 and i tried it on xubuntu
[08:04] <dade`> dapper ? edgy ?
[08:04] <Running_aim> edgy

[08:08] <LjL> elsebasbe: hm, try "sudo chown elias /home/elias/.Xauthority"
[08:08] <variant> sinthetek: it wont kill you
[08:09] <Williamts99> nick`, yes
[08:09] <sinthetek> so i cancelled the apt-get dist-upgrade, which originally listed like 1000 packages
[08:09] <Running_aim> but i have tha ati radeon igp 345m
[08:09] <sinthetek> and tried it with aptitude
[08:09] <martyyyr> my session lasts less than 10 seconds because the xsession says the file that it needs doesn't exist..but it does, any suggestions?
[08:09] <minimec> Running_aim: Oups ... You should find this information in the hardware settings in the Control Center
[08:10] <we2by> any good c+= editor like kedit but for gnome?
[08:10] <Running_aim> minimec: that is where i found it
[08:10] <elsebasbe> LjL: that did the trick!
[08:10] <we2by> c++
[08:10] <sinthetek> with apt-get it hadn't actually started installing anything yet, it was just getting them, so i figured no package list updates or anything had occurred, but at the start of aptitude upgrade, it only listed like 200 packages instead of 1000+
[08:10] <elsebasbe> LjL: you wanna tell me what the problem was?
[08:10] <roryy> !coding | we2by
[08:10] <ubotu> we2by: Programming editors/suites: Terminal-based: vi/vim, emacs - KDE: Kate, KDevelop, Quanta+, Umbrello - GNOME: gvim, gedit, anjuta, eclipse, pida
[08:10] <LjL> elsebasbe: that your .Xauthority file wasn't owned by your user, apparently
[08:10] <FredSambo> we2by, you can use kedit in gnome!
[08:11] <elsebasbe> LjL: oh, that's odd :s
[08:11] <sinthetek> so is my cancellation of apt-get going to break/interfere with the aptitude dist-upgrade?
[08:11] <elsebasbe> LjL: well, thanks!
[08:11] <LjL> elsebasbe: a bit. perhaps you did something as root that you shouldn't have
[08:11] <martyyyr> elsebasbe, LjL   was that an xsession issue?
[08:11] <sinthetek> like i said, apt-get hadn't actually started installing, it was only downloading the packages
[08:11] <LjL> martyyyr: ?
[08:11] <elsebasbe> LjL: yeah, perhaps. can't remember anything though
[08:12] <sinthetek> it looks like it is
[08:12] <martyyyr> LjL, the issue you were discussing with elsebasbe:  was it an xsession issue?
[08:12] <Running_aim> minimec: i have the compaq presario 2560ea
[08:12] <we2by> FredSambo: yea, but then I have to install the kdelibs
[08:12] <we2by> :(
[08:12] <LjL> martyyyr: i don't think
[08:12] <martyyyr> k
[08:12] <FredSambo> we2by, i see.
[08:12] <sinthetek> should i go ask in debian about default apt-get/aptitude behavior to have this question answered?
[08:12] <sinthetek> s/debian/#debian
[08:12] <elsebasbe> k thx bye
[08:13] <elsebasbe> LjL
[08:13] <martyyyr> I need to find out why I can't log in to an xsession... it says "no such file or directory", but the file does exist
[08:13] <Wipster> hey I'm reletivly new to Ubuntu and feel like doing a fresh install and sorting out my partitions, what are the recomended partitions/sizes for linux both security and speed wize?
[08:13] <Juftus> Hello! There's this bug in Edgy's Xorg related to multiple Matrox graphics cards. Is there any info out there as to when it will be fixed?
[08:13] <LjL> Wipster: little to do with security and speed
[08:14] <Williamts99> Juftus, there was an update today was it fixed?
[08:14] <FredSambo> does everyone agree that there should be a swap partition on each disk (if you have multiple)?
[08:15] <LjL> FredSambo: if the disks are equally fast, i think it's a good idea
[08:15] <treitter> is there any way to make usplash stay up until X is completely loaded?
[08:15] <LjL> if one is much faster than the other, i doubt it is
[08:15] <Wipster> LjL: ok thought keeping the system files on an different partition heled a bit, is there a recomended setup tho? (I do already have swaps over 2 disks)
[08:15] <LjL> treitter: it does
[08:15] <Juftus> Williamts, oh, you're right about the update. I don't know as I'm asking this on behalf of a friend of mine. Have to ask him.
[08:15] <martyyyr> no one who has an idea? :(
[08:15] <treitter> (right now I'm getting a handful of different screens that get flicked through between usplash finishing and GDM (which I've got auto-logging in))
[08:16] <LjL> Wipster: i have / and a separate /home partition.
[08:16] <Running_aim> minimec: found anything
[08:16] <LjL> treitter: so, you mean until *GDM* has finished loading, not X... well, no.
[08:16] <treitter> LjL: this is on Dapper (I don't have the option of upgrading in this case)
[08:16] <Wipster> just /home and / no /etc /var /boot etc?
[08:16] <treitter> LjL: yeah, I suppose
[08:16] <FredSambo> LjL, Wipster: i have separate / and home partitions as well
[08:17] <FredSambo> Wipster, those will be set up in the root.
[08:17] <treitter> LjL: do you know if usplash_down gets called at all?
[08:17] <jshriver> anyone know how to fix the Nforce3 bug w/ USB mice?
[08:17] <jshriver> or manually set an IRQ?
[08:17] <LjL> dunno treitter
[08:17] <CupOfSquirrels> Need some wireless help: Installed the drivers for my wireless device with ndiswrapper (-l gives "tiacxln present, hardware present"), and I just need to setup iwconfig. However, I don't know how to find out what the "device id" is (wlan0 doesn't work).
[08:17] <swilliamson> anyone here familiar with vsftp on ubuntu?  I am wanting to restrict directory access to users and not allow them to browse the entire directory structure
[08:17] <treitter> LjL: cool, thanks
[08:17] <LjL> but treitter, when X starts up, it just takes over the screen
[08:17] <jshriver> my mouse seems to keep having IRQ conflicts, it keeps stopping and I have to unplug/replug it
[08:17] <treitter> LjL: that's true
[08:17] <zarephath> CupOfSquirrels, : Try eth0 then
[08:17] <treitter> so I guess I've got to try to handle this on the gdm/X end of things
[08:18] <minimec> Running_aim: Hmmm .... If it works, it probably works with the ati fglrx driver. I don't see, that your card is working with aiglx. Is this a 3D card?
[08:18] <CupOfSquirrels> zarephath: Nope. The card is pci btw.
[08:18] <CupOfSquirrels> "No such device"
[08:18] <Wipster> FredSambo, LjL: recomended size of /?
[08:18] <treitter> LjL: although there is a really short gap where tty8 gets exposed before GDM takes over, though
[08:18] <treitter> LjL: but that may also be X's fault
[08:18] <FredSambo> Wipster: the rest
[08:18] <LjL> Wipster: i use 10 gigs
[08:18] <Running_aim> minimec: i dont know
[08:18] <zarephath> CupOfSquirrels, : Look at proc then
[08:19] <Otacon22> I had installed Xgl+compix on ubuntu 6.06 and I have some problems with vlc graphic and the video output of a program(tvtime), see here: http://img247.imageshack.us/img247/4628/schermata1hk2.png
[08:19] <FredSambo> wipster, i take that back
[08:19] <CupOfSquirrels> zarephath: Proc? (sorry, Linux newbie here.)
[08:19] <Wipster> FredSambo: :) cheres guys you have been a great help :)
[08:19] <we2by> any one knows what command to start Eclipse?
[08:19] <FredSambo> Wipster, how big is the drive?
[08:19] <LjL> treitter, i remember there is an option to make X start in the background. i don't remember which option it is, though, and i do remember that i didn't get it to work. if you somehow do, you could then perhaps use "chvt" to switch to X after GDM is finished
[08:20] <kitche> we2by: eclipse
[08:20] <FredSambo> Wipster, I susally set up a 1-2GB swap, 10GB / and the rest is home
[08:20] <Wipster> FredSambo: I currently have 40gb partitioned to linux
[08:20] <Wipster> not including dual swaps
[08:20] <FredSambo> Wipster, I'd go with 10GB / 30 home
[08:20] <treitter> LjL: interesting. I'll check it out. Thanks!
[08:21] <we2by> kitche: cmd not found
[08:21] <Wipster> FredSambo: cheres
[08:21] <nuked_omen> i installed xampp on my box.. i connect to the internet through a DSL modem.. how can the world get into my server?
[08:21] <treitter> LjL: so just to double-check - usplash doesn't really exit early - it waits until X is started? But if X starts in the background, I don't think that would help, would it?
[08:21] <FredSambo> Wipster, w00t!
[08:21] <fyrestrtr> nuked_omen: wth is xampp?
[08:22] <minimec> Running_aim: Sorry... I can't help you.
[08:22] <jshriver> my mouse seems to keep having IRQ conflicts, it keeps stopping and I have to unplug/replug it
[08:22] <jshriver> how can I fix? anyone know
[08:22] <nuked_omen> fyrestrtr, i don't know about the x but the rest is a=apache, m=mysql, p=php, p=perl
[08:22] <meisam_> hi
[08:22] <jpgeerets> hi folks
[08:22] <Dromede> hello
[08:22] <jpgeerets> i have an usb problem
[08:23] <davin> Hi, I have a Compaq Wireless USB Mouse, but it doesnt work with the new Edgy CD (live session), I popped in a old Dapper CD and it worked flawlessly, why? (have been using Dapper on other machine for months)
[08:23] <Dromede> any hamachi users here?
[08:23] <jpgeerets> someone perhaps can help?
[08:23] <azcazandc1> does anyone have experience getting a radeon 9600pro running under dapper 64bit?
[08:23] <we2by> any one knows what command to start Eclipse?
[08:23] <meisam_> sorry i have a problem...i have installed real player 10
[08:23] <jshriver> we2by: eclipse
[08:23] <meisam_> there is icon in my desktop, that it does not remove
[08:23] <we2by> jshriver: it is not
[08:23] <jshriver> or ./eclipse if in the directory
[08:23] <meisam_> it is related to the real player
[08:23] <zarephath> CupOfSquirrels, : Google for it...also you can issue dmesg to see if it is listed there....just type that in a terminal window...you might reboot although it shouldnt be necessary
[08:24] <we2by> jshriver: you don't know the application I'm talking about
[08:24] <jshriver> hrm I just tar -zxvf Eclipse-whatever.tar.gz into ~/Eclipse then ~/Eclipse/eclipse &
[08:24] <jshriver> eclipse the IDE for JAva, etc?
[08:24] <jpgeerets> my usb-drive mounts
[08:24] <jpgeerets> but still is empty says the screen
[08:24] <FredSambo> everyone in this channel is really nice
[08:24] <FredSambo> cheers
[08:24] <jpgeerets> but i know there is 150Gb data on....
[08:24] <jpgeerets> but i cant see
[08:25] <jpgeerets> any idea's?
[08:25] <davin> jpgeerets: tried fdisk -l?
[08:25] <kitche> we2by: you have to change to whee you put eclipse then run ./eclipse
[08:25] <davin> Hi, I have a Compaq Wireless USB Mouse, but it doesnt work with the new Edgy CD (live session), I popped in a old Dapper CD and it worked flawlessly, why? (have been using Dapper on other machine for months)
[08:25] <meisam_> sorry guys, i have installed real player 10 but the address of destination was in desktop, now i wanna unstall it, because there is an icon related to real player theta does not remove, what should i do?
[08:25] <zarephath> jpgeerets, : What filesystem?
[08:25] <kitche> we2by: since you installed it in ~/Eclipse it's probably not in your path
[08:25] <we2by> kitche: the install went through apt-get
[08:25] <jpgeerets> filesystem is ext3
[08:25] <we2by> it should be
[08:26] <jpgeerets> when use fdisk -l i get a disk
[08:26] <kitche> we2by: ok then it's should be eclipse since that's how it's started unless you didn't get some of the packages
[08:26] <jpgeerets> 3 partitions
[08:26] <jpgeerets> thats right....
[08:26] <meisam_> no body knows the problem i have?
[08:26] <nuked_omen> how can i figure out my ip address so i can access my computer from the internet
[08:26] <Dromede> any hamachi users here?
[08:26] <zarephath> meisam_: Just use synaptic and search for realplayer..tell it you want to uninstall all of it
[08:26] <minimec> Running_aim: Well there is an ati fglrx driver for your card, a new one. Thar probably means, that your card is working with xgl.
[08:26] <CowzRule> How do I unload a plug-in in X-Chat?
[08:26] <FredSambo> nuked_omen: ifconfig
[08:26] <we2by> !java
[08:26] <ubotu> To install a Java compiler/interpreter on Ubuntu, look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Java - For the Sun Java runtime install sun-java5-jre from the !Multiverse repository
[08:26] <treitter> LjL: ah - the thing that actually triggers usplash ending is the gdm init script. Looks like I've got a strong lead on my issue now. Thanks again!
[08:26] <davin> None of my mice work in Edgy but they worked flawlessly in Dapper?
[08:27] <jshriver> Anyone know how to manually setup the IRQ for a USB mouse?
[08:27] <Running_aim> minimec: so what should i do?
[08:27] <FredSambo> i am in love with ubotu
[08:27] <bitchslapper> my equations are too long, how do I split them up?  I mean I can do a \par and $$ on each line, but that's not so clean.
[08:27] <jshriver> Ubuntu is nice :)
[08:27] <jpgeerets> FredSambo: i prefer a women if you dont mind
[08:28] <misreckoning> hello everybody! my notebook is curious to know - is it finally possible to run fglrx with hardware acceleration on x1100 and x200 graphics cards?
[08:28] <FredSambo> no no, uBOTu
[08:28] <minimec> Running_aim: Fallow the ubuntu wiki for xgl. You can find the link in the #ubuntu-xgl channel
 there was no real player there, i searched
[08:28] <davin> Why doesnt my usb mouse work in Edgy while it worked like a chamr in Dapper?
[08:28] <davin> charm*
[08:28] <nick`> why does sudo apt-get install p7zip-full not work?  its not finding it
[08:28] <roryy> bitchslapper: you can try using and eqnarray, or eqnarray* environment; also check out the 'amsmath' package; it has lots of ways of splitting equations
[08:28] <jshriver> having the same problem
[08:28] <Running_aim> ok..thanx
[08:28] <jshriver> mouse wont work, or sporadic
[08:29] <bitchslapper> roryy .. alright .. thanks
[08:29] <jpgeerets> folks, should i use the i386 or the i686 at my pentium M?
[08:29] <FredSambo> testing java
[08:29] <FredSambo> oops wrong window
[08:29] <davin> jshriver: yeah I have no idea why my mouse doesnt work as it worked perfect in dapper
[08:29] <jpgeerets> kernel i mean ofcourse
[08:29] <FredSambo> ubotu is a robot right?
[08:29] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about is a robot right? - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[08:29] <jshriver> Is there a AMD64 specific distro of Ubuntu? I'm just using the regular 386 iso
[08:29] <davin> FredSambo: yes, ubotu is a bot
[08:29] <Running_aim> minimec: where did u find the driver for my ati card?can u send me the link please?
[08:29] <meisam_> sorry guys how can i unistall real plaer
[08:29] <jshriver> but running on a AMD64 X2 3800

[08:30] <FredSambo> ubotu will you marry me?
[08:30] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about will you marry me? - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[08:30] <zarephath> jshriver, : Yeah 64bit version
[08:30] <jshriver> meisam think you basically just rm ~/realplayer
[08:30] <ladydoor> meisam_: sudo aptitude remove realplayer?
[08:30] <jshriver> can you do a apt/dpkg upgrade to AMD64 distro? or would I have to redo the entire machine?
[08:30] <gilnim> hey guys
[08:30] <minimec> Running_aim: install the fglrx driver with synaptic.
[08:30] <azcazandco> anyone know why dapper drake 64bit freezes?
[08:30] <davin> So can anyone help me getting my usb mouse to work (I tried 8.) none of em work in Edgy but perfect in Dapper?
[08:31] <azcazandco> I have had to restart 3 times 5 mins
[08:31] <unimatrix9> can the usplash of egdy be used in dapper?
[08:31] <FredSambo> ubotu tell us about fglrx
[08:31] <gilnim> since updates today i get following failure: Xlib:  "extension "XFree86-DRI" missing on display ":0.0"."
[08:31] <minimec> Running_aim: Then you have to modify your xorg.conf
[08:31] <tokenbad> I can't seem to get the nvidia drivers to work...I have done the wiki...but everytime restart it gives me this gdm error something....anyone help?
[08:31] <kitche> jshriver: well multilib is a bit hard so you would have to redo the whole machine if you want a full AMD64 machine
[08:31] <davin> tokenbad: sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg, choose the nvidia driver and accept the rest default
[08:31] <minimec> !ati | Running_aim
[08:31] <ubotu> Running_aim: To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[08:31] <jshriver> rm, well it runs well now.. not worth the time but will remember for next time
[08:31] <jshriver> still wish I could get the mouse working
[08:31] <davin> why doesnt my mouse work?
[08:31] <davin> it did on dapper...
[08:32] <FredSambo> i get it now
[08:32] <gilnim> davin: what driver are you using?
[08:32] <meisam_> ladydoor i did that, but still the directory in desktop is still there and there is lock photo on the icon,  im not allowed to remove ittt
[08:32] <micktm> Anybody knows how to use Crossover?
[08:32] <kitche> davin: jshriuver it's probably how the kernel is set up or the driver that you are using in edgy
[08:32] <Running_aim> minimec: thanx
[08:32] <Dromede> has anyone tried running a game under wine or cedega and playing it in multiplayer over hamachi?

[08:33] <azcazandco> CharlieSu: thanks for the help earlier btw... I got things running after I restarted the process
[08:33] <TheGino> hey all whats the best programs from add/remove applications for a NoOb and a beginner like me
[08:33] <kitche> meisam_: you have to use sudo to remove it probably since it's owned by root
[08:33] <gilnim> My Logitech MX510 doesn't work, too
[08:33] <ladydoor> meisam_: is it owned by root? you can find out with ls -l /path/to/dir/the/realplayer/dir/is/in
[08:33] <davin> im trying to install edgy but my mouse doesnt work
[08:33] <azcazandco> gilnim: I had fun trying to get mine working
[08:33] <davin> during the live session
[08:33] <meisam_> kitche i used sudo :(
[08:33] <zarephath> tell TheGino about synaptic
[08:33] <unimatrix9> meisam_ start console , type sudo nautilus , now browse to the file
[08:33] <davin> whats up with all the mouse problems in edgy o_O
[08:33] <gilnim> azcazandco: mine shot down my X server
[08:33] <gilnim> :)
[08:34] <jshriver> well have a good day everyone
[08:34] <truk77> does anybody here have experience installing ubuntu onto an AMD based laptop with the xpress 1150 motherboard? (Turion)
[08:34] <gilnim> davin: they suck
[08:34] <azcazandco> gilnim: not so good
[08:34] <kitche> meisam_: you sudo is more for consoel apps teh gui apps use gksu or gksudo
[08:34] <minimec> FredSambo: ???
[08:34] <azcazandco> I had a tutorial ages ago about getting it running and I think i did the same....  took down X
[08:34] <TheGino> LOL i know about it also that too which programs?? for noob
[08:34] <davin> Cant I install Dapper and 'upgrade' to Edgy using the net?
[08:34] <FredSambo> minimec: i just figured out ubotu
[08:34] <gilnim> azcazandco: no, eventually not
[08:35] <Running_aim> minimec: the ati card for which the link refers to is different to mine
[08:35] <unimatrix9> meisam_ its  in home your name desktop
[08:35] <unimatrix9> i think...:)
[08:35] <zarephath> tell zarephath about update-manager
[08:35] <ReySon> Hello everyone,
[08:35] <ReySon> can Someone help me?
[08:35] <Keyseir> Does anyone know if it's possible to change to a regular text cursor in Kate instead of this text cursor thingie that selects a character and doesn't allow things like creating spaces inbetween two adjacent already entered characters?
[08:35] <ReySon> I got critical problem!
[08:35] <unimatrix9> can the usplash of egdy be used in dapper?
[08:35] <gilnim> !updates
[08:35] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about updates - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[08:35] <kitche> !ask
[08:35] <ubotu> Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[08:35] <TheGino> Aegis virus scanner any good
[08:35] <minimec> Running_aim: I see. I am not sure again, if your card is working with xgl or aiglx. I am sorry ;)
[08:35] <alecjw> does fluxbox have a notification area where i can put a battery level monitor?
[08:35] <gilnim> ReySon: Just ask!
[08:35] <ReySon> I got critical problem!! Probably my disk has been removed when I installed ubuntu!:'((
[08:35] <Running_aim> minimec: how can i check?
[08:36] <kitche> ReySon: what do you mean exactly?
[08:36] <minimec> FredSambo: Nice gadget, isn't it?
[08:36] <ReySon> When I installed Ubuntu, it dont load. So I changed OS to Windows, and it dont detecting my D: partition!
[08:36] <ladydoor> alecjw: you could put a wmwidget into the slit
[08:36] <ciaron> anyone know why i get "could not open default font 'fixed'" when trying to run vncserver
[08:36] <kitche> REySon: and what's on D:?
[08:36] <ReySon> I want my D: partition back?
[08:36] <FredSambo> minimec: completely awesome!
[08:36] <davin> ReySon: what did you do?
[08:36] <ladydoor> alecjw: they're little boxes that contain things like, say, battery moniters--there are a ton of them in the repos.
[08:36] <ReySon> 50gb of disk space and 20gb of school projects?
[08:36] <Dromede> has anyone used hamachi for lan multiplayer?
[08:36] <kitche> ciaron: it's not installed
[08:36] <minimec> Running_aim: Surf around and look for some informaiton about that card. That's all I can say.
[08:36] <gilnim> ReySon: Do you have some kind of live cd to watch if it's still there?
[08:36] <ciaron> kitche: what package is it?
[08:36] <Running_aim> ok thanx
[08:36] <davin> Dromede: yes I do, pretty neat
[08:36] <FredSambo> ReySon: calm down, it will be OK
[08:36] <kitche> ReySon: I mean what filesystem?
[08:37] <alecjw> ladydoor: do you know of any battery minitos for fluxbox?
[08:37] <gilnim> Dromede: I did
[08:37] <Genrl_Zod> yo [peeps he;p a bruva out
[08:37] <zarephath> kitche: Having trouble finding a admin for a domain...they traceback to godaddy, but I can't get the full authoritative information...any suggestions?
[08:37] <Genrl_Zod> anyone know ogf a good site for cheap mp3 players
[08:37] <FredSambo> 1bruva
[08:37] <ReySon> FredSambo, it wont be ok, cause ppls on Ubuntu-pl said my disk can be thought away
[08:37] <Genrl_Zod> i mean cheaper than cheap
[08:37] <unimatrix9> ReySon, open console and type mount, see if its mounted
[08:37] <gilnim> Dromede: worked well
[08:37] <FredSambo> !bruva
[08:37] <truk77> Genrl_Zod what's that got to do with Ubuntu?
[08:37] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about bruva - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[08:37] <Dromede> davin: which game did you try?
[08:37] <ReySon> Windows says, that D: partition is unknown ....
[08:37] <ReySon> for it
[08:37] <Genrl_Zod> ubuntu mp3
[08:37] <Dromede> did you play the game over wine or cedega?
[08:37] <Genrl_Zod> haha.
[08:37] <kitche> zarephath: it's probably private one of my domains is setup that way so no one can see the information fro that domain
[08:37] <ladydoor> alecjw: not specifically...search for packages starting with wm and you can put those in fluxbox's Slit.
[08:38] <FredSambo> ReySon, did you back up like a good boy?
[08:38] <ReySon> How?
[08:38] <ladydoor> alecjw: *many of them, i mean
[08:38] <ReySon> I mean
[08:38] <ReySon> no
[08:38] <ReySon> I dont :/
[08:38] <mzanfardino> I'm new to linux and want to know how I can determine what I have installed on my system.   Here's a few: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BackupYourSystem , https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DuplicityBackupHowto , https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HomeUserBackup , https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MondoMindi
[08:38] <unimatrix9> ReySon, whats the problem, you installed and want to get the partition back in windows or what?
[08:39] <azcazandco> anyone got any suggestions?
[08:39] <davin> ReySon: Relax, we will help you.
[08:39] <gilnim> mzanfardino: Synaptic
[08:39] <almir> anyone know anything about linux+pocketPC
[08:39] <alecjw> ladydoor: thanks. i've found somethiung good :)
[08:39] <gilnim> !synaptic
[08:39] <ubotu> synaptic is Ubuntu's Graphical Package Manager. For a good howto see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SynapticHowto
[08:39] <ladydoor> alecjw: cool.
[08:39] <Williamts99> azcazandco, maybe use the 32bit version :-)
[08:39] <mzanfardino> so then aptitude would be the text-version?
[08:39] <kitche> ciaron: fixed isn't even used anymore but I would just check if you have all the fonts installed
[08:39] <davin> ReySon: Boot to the Ubuntu Live CD and type 'fdisk -l' in the terminal, then go to www.pastecode.com, paste it, and give me the link
[08:39] <ReySon> Erm. Once again. I installed Ubuntu, and choosed a partition. Ubuntu is not loading correctly, cause its stopping on loading. So I went to Windows, and It says, that D: partition is unkown for him...............
[08:39] <ebfe> could someone try to create multiple ssh sessions on ebfe.dyndns.org ?
[08:39] <zarephath> ReySon, : First lesson never install to same hard disk if you aren't absolutely sure what you are doing..you haven't told anyone what you did so we can't offer advice
[08:40] <ciaron> kitche: as far as i can tell yeah, what package are the fixed fonts in?
[08:40] <FredSambo> ReySon: you didn't lose anything... yet
[08:40] <unimatrix9> ReySon, ubuntu uses an different filesystem that windows cannot read
[08:40] <mzanfardino> one more question: how can I display a list of logicals?
[08:40] <Williamts99> !ext3
[08:40] <ubotu> ext3 is the default filesystem on Ubuntu, and the most popular on Linux. You can read/write from Windows to ext3 via http://www.fs-driver.org
[08:40] <ReySon> So how I can retrieve my disk?
[08:40] <ReySon> To be seeable for windows?
[08:40] <FredSambo> ReySon, boot to it
[08:40] <davin> ReySon: boot the live cd and copy your files on a external hard disk or the like
[08:41] <FredSambo> windows will never see it
[08:41] <gilnim> Do you have suggestions for this problem?: Xlib:  extension "XFree86-DRI" missing on display ":0.0".
[08:41] <davin> ReySon: then you can copy it back to a ntfs partition that windows can read
[08:41] <ciaron> kitche: ah no worries, fixed. was vnc looking for fontpaths in the wrong order
[08:41] <Sarkie> hi guys, basically ubuntu doesnt support my soundcard chip, and i dont care, so how do i kill it, and make it not load it? cheers
[08:41] <ReySon> davin
[08:41] <FredSambo> !windows
[08:41] <ubotu> For help with Microsoft Windows, please visit ##windows or your nearest mental health institute. See http://launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/+bug/1 http://linux.oneandoneis2.org/LNW.htm and !equivalents
[08:41] <ReySon> one moment
[08:41] <ReySon> what data to copy and where?
[08:41] <davin> ReySon: okay, where are you now?
[08:41] <kitche> ciaron: xfonts-base
[08:41] <ReySon> I'm downloading this driver-fs
[08:41] <ReySon> ok,m donwloaded
[08:41] <davin> ReySon: youre on windows?
[08:41] <ReySon> Yes
[08:42] <ReySon> because Ubuntu dont load :/
[08:42] <unimatrix9> ReySon has installed ubuntu and wants the partition back....and is in windows..
[08:42] <azcazandco> Williamts99: can i downgrade?
[08:42] <davin> ReySon: does the live cd boot?
[08:42] <Dromede> gilnim: about the hamachi thing, did you play the game over wine or cedega?
[08:42] <unimatrix9> is that correct?
[08:42] <gilnim> ReySon: It works pretty good. - this driver
[08:42] <azcazandco> or do i have to re-install
[08:42] <ReySon> Yes
[08:42] <ReySon> I mean
[08:42] <ReySon> no
[08:42] <ReySon> I downloaded
[08:42] <davin> ReySon: mhm
[08:42] <ReySon> Ubuntu
[08:42] <ReySon> from page
[08:42] <ReySon> LiveCD dont boot
[08:42] <gilnim> Dromede: Wine I think
[08:42] <napg> thats not true, i used "explore2fs" on windows and got some files i needed from my ubuntu partition
[08:42] <kitche> !downgrade| azcazandco
[08:42] <ubotu> azcazandco: Attempting to downgrade to an older Ubuntu version is explicitly not supported, and may break your system.
[08:42] <Olli1> hello
[08:42] <Dromede> gilnim: im trying to play half life multiplayer over hamachi but HL cant detect any servers on hamachi lan
[08:42] <davin> ReySon: does it start up at all?
[08:42] <ReySon> Yes
[08:42] <ReySon> as normal cd to view, yes
[08:42] <Sarkie> hi guys, basically ubuntu doesnt support my soundcard chip, and i dont care, so how do i kill it, and make it not load it? cheers
[08:43] <davin> ReySon: I think you might just burned the .iso as data disc
[08:43] <gilnim> !spam | ReySon
[08:43] <azcazandco> kitche: thanks
[08:43] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about spam - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[08:43] <Olli1> can someone tell me how to join another server? I need to get over to IrcQ-net but don't know how...
[08:43] <azcazandco> this is a pest
[08:43] <kitche> !enter|ReySon
[08:43] <ubotu> ReySon: Please don't use the "enter" key as punctuation! It spams the channel and can be annoying.
[08:43] <meisam_> sorry i have tried to remove the real player , but still the directory is on m desktop with lock photo above the folder
[08:43] <gilnim> Dromede: are there any servers?
[08:43] <ReySon> davin, I mean, I INSTALLED Ubuntu, but it dont LOAD
[08:43] <azcazandco> do you think my 64bit install was corrupt?
[08:43] <unimatrix9> ReySon be clear about what you need / wanto do...
[08:43] <davin> ReySon: no problem you can use the live cd to retrieve your files on the harddisk
[08:43] <gilnim> Olli1: use: "/connect [server ip] "
[08:43] <ReySon> Ubuntu LiveCD?
[08:44] <FredSambo> ReySon, you need to boot to that partition
[08:44] <davin> ReySon: Install CD = Live CD
[08:44] <ReySon> o
[08:44] <Dromede> gilnim: lol. of course. i can connect to my friends hamachi network, i can see all the people on the network and they can see me.
[08:44] <ReySon> oh*
[08:44] <Olli1> thank you thank you gilnim :)
[08:44] <davin> FredSambo: cant he copy his files off using live session?
[08:44] <TheGino> how can i install a taz.gz file which is a program
[08:44] <FredSambo> davin: he 'could'
[08:44] <davin> ReySon: hold on ill tell you what you can do to get back here in on the live cd
[08:44] <Dromede> gilnim:but it just wont find the server. im using cedega 5.2
[08:44] <FredSambo> davin: but could he?
[08:44] <gilnim> Dromede: then maybe cedega is stupid
[08:45] <davin> ReySon: boot to the live cd, in the live session open a terminal, type 'sudo irssi -c irc.freenode.net -n ReySon' then when it is connected type '/join #ubuntu'
[08:45] <Dromede> gilnim:which version of wine did you use?
[08:45] <gilnim> Dromede: do you really pay money for using cedega?
[08:45] <dabaR> !compile |theGino
[08:45] <ubotu> theGino: Compiling software from source? Read the tips at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CompilingSoftware (But remember to search for pre-built !packages first: not all !repositories are enabled by default!)
[08:45] <ebfe> could someone try to create multiple ssh sessions on ebfe.dyndns.org ?
[08:45] <Dromede> gilnim: yea
[08:45] <gilnim> Dromede: I think the newest
[08:45] <FredSambo> davin, i thin ReySon was just having trouble booting into his ubuntu partition
[08:45] <Dromede> gilnim:
[08:45] <azcazandco> does anyone have any suggestions about why my default install of dapper 64 wont work?
[08:45] <Dromede> gilnim:its a good program
[08:46] <WonderWal> how can i see if my network card is bound to eth0?
[08:46] <davin> FredSambo: No, he has important school files on a ext3 partition that his windows cant read, so im telling him to copy them off using the live cd
[08:46] <ALi_> Hello, how can i install form a text boot on my ubuntu live cd?
[08:46] <dabaR> ebfe: you could
[08:46] <unimatrix9> and he wants his partition reclaimed in windows...
[08:46] <gilnim> Dromede: hmm - i wouldn't pay money for it though
[08:46] <holler> does anybody know what the default user is for php on a ubuntu box?
[08:46] <ebfe> dabaR: its a firewall/routing thing
[08:46] <FredSambo> i am confused
[08:46] <FredSambo> lol
[08:46] <gilnim> me 2
[08:46] <Olli1> it says no such command gilnim
[08:46] <davin> FredSambo: He has school files on a partition, ext 3, his ubuntu screwed up and Windows cant read ext3
[08:46] <FredSambo> !windows
[08:46] <ubotu> For help with Microsoft Windows, please visit ##windows or your nearest mental health institute. See http://launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/+bug/1 http://linux.oneandoneis2.org/LNW.htm and !equivalents
[08:46] <Dromede> gilnim:so, any ideas on my problem?
[08:46] <TheGino> just type compile in the terminal dabaR
[08:46] <TheGino> ??
[08:47] <davin> ReySon: still here?
[08:47] <gilnim> Dromede: no - sorry
[08:47] <Dromede> gilnim: there's absolutely NO info on this subject on the whole internet... i cant believe it.
[08:47] <unimatrix9> better be sure ta ask what he really wants
[08:47] <ALi_> Hello, how can i install form a text boot on my ubuntu live cd?
[08:47] <gilnim> Olli1: what program do you use?
[08:47] <ReySon> Yes
[08:47] <ReySon> Im here
[08:47] <davin> ReySon: let me explain
[08:47] <Olli1> i am using gaim
[08:47] <ReySon> davin, what to use? Original LiveCD or this one, .iso I recorded?
[08:47] <gilnim> Dromede: did you try wine?
[08:47] <Olli1> this is my first Linux run...about 15 minutes now heheh
[08:47] <davin> ReySon: Dapper CD?
[08:48] <tazz> i have a p4 processor and i am upgrading my kernel from 386 to 686 will there be any unwanted side effects?
[08:48] <ReySon> Yes
[08:48] <ReySon> alternate install CD
[08:48] <netG> I'm searching for an alternative to Beagle
[08:48] <davin> ReySon: No use the normal one
[08:48] <bimberi> tazz: should be fine
[08:48] <ReySon> I downloaded from page or original LiveCD?
[08:48] <ReySon> Ok
[08:48] <jerp> ali, download an alternative cd
[08:48] <netG> Does it exists?
[08:48] <davin> ReySon: let me explain your current situation
[08:48] <gilnim> Olli1: go to accounts and create one that connects there
[08:48] <napg> ReySon: check the message i sent u
[08:48] <tazz> ah thanks bimberi, but is it recomended?
[08:48] <ALi_> is there no way i can install the live cd at all?
[08:48] <Dromede> gilnim: yea, the latest one. the thing is my crappy GPU is having some issues with ubuntu 6.10 so i cant play it in opengl mode.
[08:48] <unimatrix9> can the usplash of egdy be used in dapper?
[08:48] <ReySon> davin, can
[08:48] <ReySon> i cant see private messages
[08:48] <Dromede> gilnim: i get like 0.5 fps
[08:48] <nolimitsoya> tazz, running dapper or edgy? all edgu users should use the generic kernel
[08:48] <oddballin> hi anybody... is there any way i can stretch my display beyond what xubuntu have to offer?
[08:48] <Olli1> ok thank you gilnim
[08:49] <Dromede> gilnim: and software mode wont work on wine
[08:49] <dabaR> oddballin: resoulution?
[08:49] <Dromede> gilnim: but it works on cedega
[08:49] <davin> ReySon: Your school files are on a 'Ext3' partition, Windows can only read 'VFAT/NTFS' not 'Ext3'. What you're going to do is use the Live CD to copy the files off your harddisk to a safe location, such as an external harddisk or pendrive.
[08:49] <nolimitsoya> oddballin, edit your xorg.conf
[08:49] <dfgas> how do i get glxgears to post fps?
[08:49] <tazz> nolimitsoya, i dit-upgraded to edgy. (i know i shouldnt have, but i have no complaints:-P)
[08:49] <davin> ReySon: then you can move them back to Windows or look into installing Ubuntu
[08:49] <bimberi> tazz: not forcefully.  I've not bothered.  Apparently the performance gains aren't that great
[08:49] <gilnim> Dromede: at least you don't get hit by anybody with .5 frames
[08:49] <tazz> dist-upgraded*
[08:49] <dabaR> dfgas: man glxgears... I think there s \\is --show-fps
[08:49] <Dromede> gilnim: har har har har
[08:49] <nolimitsoya> tazz, then you should be using the generic kerlen.
[08:49] <lupine_58> dfgas: glxgears -iacknowledgethatthistoolisnotabenchmark
[08:49] <nolimitsoya> *kernel
[08:50] <tazz> ah ok then thanks :-)
[08:50] <gilnim> Dromede:  my cs works well with the actual wine
[08:50] <nolimitsoya> ReySon, use ext2ifs to read ext3 from windows
[08:50] <Dromede> gilnim: i have a riva tnt2 vanta crap. and i cant get it to work in 4x mode on ubuntu. gnome just hangs on login
[08:50] <davin> ReySon: or you could use Ext2fs to read them in Windows
[08:50] <ALi_> is there no way i can install the live cd at all?
[08:50] <napg> ReySon: or explore2fs
[08:50] <ReySon> I installed this driver, and what now?
[08:50] <gilnim> Dromede: don't ask me about it -.-
[08:51] <davin> So whats up with this mouse stuff in edgy>?
[08:51] <nolimitsoya> ALi_, click the install icon on the desktop
[08:51] <oddballin> nolimitsoya, how would i do that? in termainl?  what is the path?
[08:51] <gilnim> Dromede: had a riva tnt 2 pro once
[08:51] <nolimitsoya> oddballin, in a terminal: sudo nano /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[08:51] <bimberi> ALi_: if the livecd doesn't boot to the gui desktop successfully then you'll need to get the altnerate unfortunately
[08:51] <ALi_> but that doesnt seem to work, i can get to the desktop after 10 minutes of the cd wirling
[08:51] <nolimitsoya> oddballin, just add the resolution you want, using the old ones as a guide
[08:52] <ALi_> but i then click install, lots of processor and hardrive activity but nothing
[08:52] <nolimitsoya> ALi_, do a md5 hash of the cd, and if it checks out, get the alternate install. if it doesnt, burn a new disc
[08:52] <ReySon> davin! I got now ORIGINAL, LiveCD in CD-ROM
[08:52] <ReySon> What to do now?
[08:52] <oddballin> nolimitsoya, got it... so i just change the mode numbers... from "1280 x 800" to something else.. but im not sure about depth?
[08:52] <ReySon> Too many ppls talking, i cant see directly your msgs
[08:52] <FredSambo> that is the question
[08:53] <nolimitsoya> ReySon, as i said, you want the ext2ifs for windows.
[08:53] <nolimitsoya> ReySon, boot windows and download it
[08:53] <ReySon> I installed it
[08:53] <ReySon> Im on Windows
[08:53] <parejaBilbao> quit
[08:53] <[Utah] tristanbob> if you use wireless on (edgy) Ubuntu, does the drop-down menu display the available wireless networks?
[08:53] <napg> ReySon: just use explore2fs on windows to access your files on the linux partition
[08:53] <holler> does anybody know what the default user is for php on a ubuntu box?
[08:53] <FredSambo> !troll
[08:53] <[Utah] tristanbob> this worked in dapper, then broke ni edgy upgrade
[08:53] <nolimitsoya> ReySon, then you dont need the ubuntu disc. just go into the control center, and click the ext2ifs icon
[08:53] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about troll - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[08:53] <unimatrix9> ReySon , got an usb flash drive, plug it in and copy files to it, could be an other option
[08:54] <ReySon> I dont have nothing that I can copy files....
[08:54] <nolimitsoya> unimatrix9, not a very practical one, though
[08:54] <Centaur5> I put my wpa key in Edgy's keyring manager but every time I turn on my computer it still asks for me to type it in.  What am I doing wrong?
[08:54] <napg> can someone tell ReySon to use some small software to access the linux partition...
[08:54] <nolimitsoya> ReySon, just go into the control center, and click the icon as i said. then pick a label for the partition you want access to. its then avalable through the explorer
[08:55] <nolimitsoya> napg, done, since way back
[08:55] <napg> nolimitsoya, indeed lol
[08:55] <oddballin> nolimitsoya, you there?  i got it.. but what do i do with "depth" part?
[08:55] <nolimitsoya> oddballin, just leave it
[08:56] <[Utah] tristanbob> if you use wireless in Edgy, does the drop down menu of available wireless networks work for you?  this use to work for me in dapper, now that I have upgraded to edgy, it doesn't show any networks
[08:56] <bluefox83> how do i get firefox to stop using the mozilla-totem plugin and use the mozilla-mplayer plugin?
[08:56] <ReySon> I got Explore2fs, and what do to now with it?
[08:56] <unimatrix9> can the usplash of egdy be copied to dapper?
[08:56] <napg> davin: just tell him to do as nolimitsoya said or with explore2fs
[08:56] <ReySon> There is folders tree...
[08:56] <napg> finally
[08:56] <davin> ReySon: my apologies
[08:56] <nolimitsoya> ReySon, you shouldnt use explore2fs. i told you to get ext2ifs
[08:56] <kikokos> hi
[08:56] <napg> extract the archive to your hard drive
[08:56] <ebfe> could someone try to create multiple ssh sessions on ebfe.dyndns.org ?
[08:56] <napg> and run it
[08:56] <ReySon> I got ext2ifs too
[08:56] <derlandi> hey @all
[08:56] <macgyver187> Help:
[08:56] <bluefox83> [Utah] tristanbob, upgrading has caused ooddles of problems for people..you probably wouldn't have so many problems if you just straight up installed from scratch
[08:56] <davin> Why doesnt my mouse work in edgy.
[08:56] <napg> u should see the linus partitions through it
[08:57] <nolimitsoya> ReySon, then install it, and follow the instructions i gave you?!
[08:57] <kikokos> I have a q, I`ve just installed opendb, but when I try run it from terminal it do nothing...how I can check which commend run this program?
[08:57] <davin> ReySon: make sure you reboot after you set up everything in Ext2fs
[08:57] <ReySon> ohhhh
[08:57] <ReySon> ok
[08:57] <ReySon> brb
[08:57] <[Utah] tristanbob> bluefox83: I have not istalled any non-standard repos
[08:57] <derlandi> can please someone tell me how jump in the german ubuntu server?
[08:57] <nolimitsoya> oddballin, hows it going?
[08:57] <ReySon> restarting computer
[08:57] <davin> ReySoon: good luck
[08:57] <dabaR> kikokos: dpkg -L opendb
[08:57] <oddballin> nolimitsoya, done writing out.  do i need to restart?
[08:57] <kikokos> dabaR gracias
[08:57] <napg> explore2fs is so much easier =/
[08:57] <macgyver187> I've been trying to install LinPhone and cant get past this configure message: "Could not find libreadline..." but its there
[08:57] <nolimitsoya> davin, please reffer to it as ext2ifs, since thats its name. confusions is not good thing
[08:57] <bluefox83> [Utah] tristanbob, doesn't matter..it's causing issues for everyone that upgrades..just do a fresh install
[08:58] <nolimitsoya> napg, but not as practical, once everything is set up
[08:58] <ladydoor> macgyver187: you probably need to install libreadline-dev
[08:58] <davin> nolimitsoya: ah okay I thought it was ext2fs, not ext2ifs
[08:58] <macgyver187> ok...will try
[08:58] <gilnim> following problem after xorg updates today: Xlib:  extension "XFree86-DRI" missing on display ":0.0"
[08:58] <dabaR> kikokos: that is not the answer exactly to your question, but will show all files that were installed.
[08:58] <nolimitsoya> oddballin, you just need to restart x
[08:58] <Dromede> gilnim:it wont work on wine either. it cant detect the server
[08:58] <FredSambo> davin, did you check your xorg.conf file?
[08:58] <ladydoor> macgyver187: usually if there're complaints of missing libraries, it's the dev stuff that's missing
[08:58] <nolimitsoya> oddballin, ctrl+alt+backspace
[08:58] <davin> FredSambo: why?
[08:58] <nolimitsoya> davin, ifs stands for Installable File System
[08:58] <dabaR> kikokos: try sudo invoke-rc.d opendb restart too.
[08:59] <macgyver187> ok...I assumed all Dev is for programmers...:)
[08:59] <FredSambo> davin: isn't that where your mouse settings are?
[08:59] <davin> FredSambo: my mouse isnt working on the live cd, I want to install Edgy.
[08:59] <neobonzi> how do I automatically have a command execute on startup?
[08:59] <FredSambo> davin, oh
[08:59] <nolimitsoya> davin, use the alternate install cd, or struggle with the tab, space and enter keys
[09:00] <bluefox83> davin, in a terminal do: sudo psmouse
[09:00] <bimberi> neobonzi: add it to /etc/rc.local (will run as root)
[09:00] <mparrish> I want to install grub version 0.97-11ubuntu14 on my edgy system, but when I do "apt-get install grub=0.97-11ubuntu14" it says it cant find it.  How do I do what I want?
[09:00] <neobonzi> bimberi, thank you
[09:00] <bimberi> neobonzi: yw
[09:00] <davin> bluefox83: whats psmouse?
[09:00] <Legion> I'm buying a brand new comp, and I want to put Ubuntu on it. Should I just get the Desktop CD?
[09:01] <davin> Legion: if you use it as a Desktop PC, yes.
[09:01] <kzm_> Legion, don't see why not.
[09:01] <bluefox83> davehat, actually i forgot part of the command  do: sudo modprobe psmouse
[09:01] <bimberi> mparrish: try downloading the deb and installing using 'sudo dpkg -i file.deb'
[09:01] <bluefox83> er
[09:01] <bluefox83> davin,
[09:01] <Legion> can I be fairly confident that drivers and such will work without too much intervention?
[09:01] <kikokos> dabar
[09:01] <mparrish> bimberi: I trid that, but it has a libc dependency.
[09:01] <kikokos> when i tried first command it show me where i have files
[09:01] <davin> gonna boot to edgy now brb (ill try irssi)
[09:01] <bluefox83> davin, sudo modprobe psmouse
[09:02] <davin> hold on im on dapper live now, gonna boot to edgy, brb.
[09:02] <bluefox83> davehat, will load the ps2 mouse driver
[09:02] <kikokos> dabar but second show sudo invoke-rc.d opendb
[09:02] <kikokos> invoke-rc.d: syntax error: missing required parameter
[09:02] <davin> its usb though
[09:02] <bluefox83> oh
[09:02] <dabaR> kikokos: add restart at the end
[09:02] <kikokos> dabar ok
[09:02] <bluefox83> dunno what to tell you..try unplugging it and plugging it back in
[09:02] <bimberi> mparrish: ah, so you'll need to compile from source
[09:03] <davin> ill try to tinker xorg.conf brb then
[09:03] <ReySon> ekhm ekhm
[09:03] <kikokos> dabar sudo invoke-rc.d opendb restart too
[09:03] <kikokos> invoke-rc.d: unknown initscript, /etc/init.d/opendb not found.
[09:03] <nolimitsoya> davin, use the alternate install cd, or struggle with the tab, space and enter keys. you shouldnt need the mouse.
[09:03] <kikokos> dabar so reinstall?
[09:03] <dabaR> kikokos: then it is not ran as a daemon, or server.
[09:03] <ReySon> When I go to "Computer Management" -> "Disk management" it says, that 40gb and 26gb has status: UNKNOWN and uknown file systems

[09:06] <dabaR> kikokos: what do you mean remember what is on the CD? If it is for example a "Sting" cd, then a program such as amarok, or rhythmbox will know the tracks as soon as you put in the cd, cause it can access an online database.

[09:12] <nolimitsoya> ReySon, just awnser the questions clearly: can you, or can you not, se the partition under a new letter in the explorer?
[09:12] <dabaR> shadeofgrey: You can mount ext3 in tiger, yes.

[09:12] <dabaR> shadeofgrey: there is a mount command in mac os x
[09:12] <dabaR> shadeofgrey: as well as a man command.
[09:12] <nolimitsoya> ReySon, then have you gone back to the ext2ifs control panel and checked the settings? are you , in fact, using ext3, and was the program you downloaded ext2ifs?
[09:13] <nolimitsoya> !ext2ifs

[09:13] <ReySon> Yes
[09:13] <mnepton> there was a plugin for ext* for Panther, but it does not work in Tiger
[09:13] <ReySon> I dowloaded it
[09:13] <shadeofgrey> everything i have been trold by the people in #macosx claim that ext3 partitions cant be mounted
[09:13] <ReySon> and reboot computer
[09:13] <dabaR> shadeofgrey: just man mount.

[09:19] <nolimitsoya> MenZaLap, ntfs-3g is nice, but take every effort to aviod ntfs. use ext2/3, and ext2ifs, or fat32 instead

[09:20] <nolimitsoya> ReySon, what what? highlight every line you type, or ill miss it. if everything is correctly configured, itll work. redo what your did, and sort out what you did wrong. install, reboot, mount, try another reboot
[09:20] <MenZaLap> !rpm
[09:20] <ubotu> rpm is the RedHat Package Management system. Ubuntu does not use RPM, but !APT, and RPM packages are not supported (the package "alien" can allow installing them, but it's quite dangerous).
[09:21] <LjL> allz: what's the output of "apt-cache policy vlc" and of "apt-cache policy wxvlc" and of "apt-cache policy libdc1394-13"
[09:21] <ashzilla> Can someone recommend a program I can use to connect to a Windows VPN.
[09:21] <motoplux> oddballin install alien and the alien .rpm
[09:21] <javiolo> oddballin get a .deb
[09:21] <nolimitsoya> MenZaLap, ext2ifs allows windows to read ext2 (or ext3, but without journal)

[09:25] <nolimitsoya> Skyrail, or realplayer, from the non free repo
[09:25] <oddballin> for GAIM, which file should i download...  	gaim-2.0.0beta5.tar.bz2    or  	gaim-2.0.0beta5.tar.gz   ?
[09:25] <MenZaLap> either.
[09:25] <adilson> kernel 2.6.17 in this case debian etch rc4
[09:25] <nolimitsoya> Skyrail, canonical mailtains a repo with commersial software, outside of ubuntu
[09:25] <LjL> allz: gee, it really seems like i cannot read a sources.list - http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/32183/
[09:25] <MenZaLap> I personally prefer gzip, but meh
[09:25] <adilson> ubuntu it only for workstation here
[09:25] <eobanb_> oddballin, neither; ubuntu comes with gaim
[09:25] <ladydoor> oddballin: they're pretty much going to be identical. they're just different archive formats
[09:25] <adilson> and debian it only for server here
[09:25] <LjL> allz: (though i do wonder how you got it into that messy state :P)
[09:26] <MenZaLap> notice the 'beta', eobanb_.
[09:26] <Skyrail> nolimitsoya: ok, I'll try mplayer first, if most players play .mov files why can't I play this one?
[09:26] <pirx> hi! where do i change the "look and feel" of the default window manager? (i want to enable the "mouse wheel" on my laptop to scroll in windows)
[09:26] <oddballin> eobanb, yea, but i want to use gaim beta 5...
[09:26] <MenZaLap> pirx: mine does that by standard.
[09:26] <eobanb_> oh, i see.
[09:26] <nolimitsoya> adilson, shouldnt you be in the debain channel then?
[09:26] <ladydoor> oddballin: first, you're going to want to uninstall or divert ubuntu's gaim, though
[09:26] <mobal> hello everybody!

[09:27] <nolimitsoya> adilson, then you are not making sense. you where talking about debian etch rc4 just now. what the prolem you have anyway?

[09:29] <alecjw> will the rt2500 drivers work on an rt2500 USB device?
[09:29] <oddballin> ladydoor, i just  uninstall gaim now... what do i need to do to install with the source code?
[09:29] <Williamts99> !ubotu
[09:29] <MenZaLap> oddballin: compile it
[09:29] <tat> alecjw: I think theres another driver for the USB-device, afaik its included in Ubuntu. Try to plug it in.
[09:30] <MenZaLap> !compile
[09:30] <ubotu> Compiling software from source? Read the tips at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CompilingSoftware (But remember to search for pre-built !packages first: not all !repositories are enabled by default!)
[09:30] <pirx> ubuntu 6.06 it seems
[09:30] <nolimitsoya> adilson, if you want support about your debian server, you should be in the debian support channel (no i still dont get it, and i am paying attention :) )
[09:30] <FantasticFoo> nolimitsoya: you were saying something about not having the right kernel version or something
[09:30] <adilson> i have here enlightenment 17.... but beryl-manger do not work.... what is the problem?
[09:30] <alecjw> tat: you mean ubuntu base system or ubuntu desktop?
[09:30] <ladydoor> pirx: open up your package manager and do a search for ubuntu-desktop, and see which is installed
[09:30] <tat> alecjw: base system
[09:30] <LjL> Ubotu, please tell adilson about beryl
[09:30] <adilson> ok
[09:30] <nolimitsoya> FantasticFoo, make sure you are using the -generic kernel, and apt-get install linux-headers-`uname -r`
[09:30] <adilson> thanks....
[09:30] <alecjw> ok. thanks tat
[09:30] <FantasticFoo> nolimitsoya: ok
[09:31] <ladydoor> oddballin: ok, first put it in some out-of-the-way spot and unpack it. let me know when you're ready to go on.
[09:31] <adilson> so lets talk about ubuntu here....
[09:31] <pirx> ladydoor: gnome

[09:31] <FantasticFoo> nolimitsoya: ok
[09:31] <LjL> allz, as long as he doesn't do something like that again
[09:31] <FantasticFoo> nolimitsoya: how do i fix if it's wrong?
[09:32] <ladydoor> pirx: ok, so you're looking for info on Metacity if you want the window manager in particular. however, if you're dealing with the mouse, i'd look for any info about your particular brand of mouse on linux
[09:32] <nolimitsoya> FantasticFoo, one step at a time
[09:32] <FantasticFoo> nolimitsoya: ok, lol
[09:32] <ladydoor> oddballin: sorry, i'm not sure what you mean.
[09:32] <nolimitsoya> FantasticFoo, whats the verdict?
[09:32] <rmd> are there any packages for a parental controls/net nanny type program for ubuntu
[09:32] <FantasticFoo> nolimitsoya: i have to reboot into linux first

[09:33] <oddballin> ladydoor, with terminal?
[09:34] <dope> i used the tutorial on the ubuntu forums to get my wireless working and it was working until i was connected one day and d/led the latest updates for ubuntu. now my wireless in ubuntu doesn't work and I have to use my windows install. Can someone help me?
[09:34] <ladydoor> oddballin: yup!
[09:34] <eigenlambda> how can i configure mplayer to prevent the display from going to sleep?
[09:34] <FantasticFoo> nolimitsoya: ok, cool
[09:34] <nolimitsoya> oddballin, your home should be the first thing you are in when launching nautilus or a terminal
[09:34] <dope> i got some security updates or something for ubuntu and now wireless doesn't work no more
[09:35] <tat> rmd: you could try to install a filter for firefox, if thats the browser youre using. try your luck on google :)
[09:35] <davin> I was thinking, what would work better on Ubuntu? A WLAN PCI Card or a WLAN Bridge on the Ethernet Port?
[09:36] <b0c1k4> hi
[09:36] <davin> good evening
[09:36] <ladydoor> hi
[09:36] <oddballin> ladydoor, i found it.. its at /desktop
[09:36] <oddballin> ladydoor, but it isnt showing on my desktop?
[09:36] <ladydoor> oddballin: at /desktop or at ~/Desktop
[09:36] <ladydoor> ?
[09:36] <b0c1k4> If I have 2 module (rt2500.ko) the first in the extra dir the second in the drivers/net/wireles/...
[09:36] <b0c1k4> how can I decide which loaded?
[09:36] <ladydoor> oddballin: or at ~/desktop?

[09:37] <allz> ljl what command allowes me to see .if i have installd my video card correct
[09:37] <oddballin> ladydoor, ~/dESKTOP$
[09:37] <LjL> allz: an nvidia, right?
[09:37] <allz> yes
[09:37] <LjL> allz: if you see the nvidia logo when X starts, it is installed
[09:38] <ladydoor> oddballin: well, i don't know anything about gnome per s, but anyway, what you should do is move it somewhere out-of-the-way. i, for example, have a ~/src dir
[09:38] <allz> ljl yes i see it
[09:38] <allz> hehe i am on steam and it says
[09:38] <allz> video card not decteded
[09:38] <allz> :S
[09:38] <davin> allz: cedega?
[09:38] <allz> no
[09:38] <allz> wine
[09:38] <LjL> well that's a problem with steam i guess.
[09:38] <davin> allz: does steam stop loading after 26% updating?
[09:38] <allz> no
[09:39] <allz> steam is just fine
[09:39] <allz> i can play many games
[09:39] <allz> but it gives me from steam .that my video card is not detected
[09:39] <allz> but i play cs:source just fine and half life 2
[09:39] <davin> allz: problem in steam then, tried software mode/opengl?
[09:40] <davin> allz: or winecfg
[09:40] <davin> allz: you should go to #winehq
[09:40] <dope> so anyone got any ideas on my wireless problem?
[09:40] <kzm_> Anybody know the scripts on intitramfs well?
[09:40] <neobonzi> How would i go about mounting my windows partition so it shows up in my "computer" like an external or USB drive?
[09:41] <dope> wireless used to work, i installed some ubuntu updates or something and now wireless can see access points but won't connect to any of them
[09:41] <sampo_v2> is there a system available to create different ubuntu installation CD's ?
[09:41] <ladydoor> oddballin: i guess let me know...
[09:42] <oddballin> ladydoor,  sorry.. im here, but i have guests right now... ;)
[09:42] <dope> nobody had any luck with wireless?
[09:43] <adilson> what about ps2 emulator on ubuntu?
[09:43] <Legion> Does somebody have a newbies guide to linux?
[09:43] <ladydoor> oddballin: oh! well, real people are way more important than anything online
[09:43] <dope> is there a way to uninstall the bcm43xx-fwcutter program?
[09:43] <fyrestrtr> Legion: step 1. Praise the greatness of moi step 2. format Windows
[09:43] <dope> does it need to be uninstalled
[09:44] <davin> Legion: First, make sure you're sure you actually want to use Linux
[09:44] <draeath> im running ubuntu on a laptop. /boot is on /dev/hda2, / is on /dev/sda1 (external HD) - if i loose power, the system stays up but the root filesystem goes down. Besides putting the journal for sda1 on hda somewhere, what else can I do to get the system to handle it? ideally the system would pause disk writes/reads untill the FS came back, and then would scan the FS for consistancy before resuming. is that possible?
[09:44] <davin> Legion: what do you want to use your computer for?
[09:45] <davin> hold on gotta reboot
[09:45] <any> Hi
[09:45] <Q_Continuum> Question: Just installed 6.10 on laptop (emachines M6805) tried changing resolution to 1280x800 (native) and had corrupted video.
[09:46] <Q_Continuum> Have to mouse over a button or option in order for the correct text/image to display.
[09:46] <Legion> I study computer science, so I find it rather important that I learn to work Linux. My university is very fond of linux, and I'm tired of finding alternatives for everything
[09:46] <LeeJunFan> crap, I really wish ATI would get on the ball with Linux drivers. Just updated mine and now I can't resume from suspend to ram.
[09:47] <ladydoor> Legion: wow, where do you go to school?
[09:47] <mcsmurf> hi, I have Ubutu 6.06 installed and was running a security update earlier
[09:47] <Legion> University of Copenhagen
[09:47] <needinfo> Hello
[09:47] <mcsmurf> there it warned me about a missing signature for the cpio package so I cancelled it...
[09:47] <mcsmurf> why is the signature missing, just an error or...?
[09:47] <draeath> anyone have any idea? or would this be better for the forums and/or ##linux?
[09:48] <needinfo> How do I get to command line when gui freezes?
[09:48] <allz> needinfo just ask your question .we are steel breathing :)
[09:48] <Legion> I'm very comfortable with Windows, but it's kinda on the expensive side of things
[09:48] <Falstius> needinfo: sometimes you can use ctrl+alt+f1
[09:48] <Legion> and when I need a C compiler I fucking have to SSH to my school and use theirs
[09:48] <Falstius> to get back to the gui, use alt+f7
[09:48] <needinfo> Tried that. Went no where.
[09:49] <Legion> and that stuff burns like abortion!
[09:49] <LjL> !language | Legion
[09:49] <ubotu> Legion: Please watch your language and keep this channel family friendly.
[09:49] <ciaron> whats a good v. lightweight window manager?
[09:49] <Falstius> needinfo: if that doesn't work than it is a lower level crash and you probably need to reboot the machine.
[09:49] <njan> legion, you can install gcc in winows.
[09:49] <any> why are the modules of volatile/ replaced at each boot ?
[09:49] <njan> s/winows/windows/
[09:49] <kmaynard> !xubuntu | ciaron
[09:49] <ubotu> ciaron: Xubuntu is Ubuntu with XFCE, for more info, see http://www.xubuntu.org  To install from Ubuntu: sudo apt-get install xubuntu-desktop
[09:50] <alecjw> i have a wireless network set up, how do i make it connect?
[09:50] <mcsmurf> Cygwin GCC? I would rather avoid it, it's not very good and not very fast ;)
[09:50] <draeath> legeon, investigate 'cygwin'
[09:50] <draeath> then find one compiled with mingw32 :)
[09:50] <needinfo> I am new to linux. This is a new install. Had it working with command line in Edgy.
[09:50] <Falstius> mcsmurf: you can use msys instead of cygwin.  It is a lightweight branch.
[09:50] <mcsmurf> yeah, that one is a bit better
[09:50] <mcsmurf> Falstius, normally i use M$ Visual Studio Free Edition 8-)
[09:50] <needinfo> Then I did apt-get desktop. I have not been able to reboot since.
[09:51] <Legion> all in all, I'm tired of throwing money at MS, and learning new stuff was never a bad thing
[09:51] <fivre> mingw?
[09:51] <draeath> yes
[09:51] <fivre> whatever it is that comes with Dev-Cpp?
[09:51] <Gecko> Is there any way I can capture what files a program (tries to) access?
[09:51] <needinfo> It freezes with the Ubuntu logo.
[09:51] <mcsmurf> Gecko, yes....
[09:51] <mcsmurf> if I could only remember the name
[09:51] <mcsmurf> strace?
[09:51] <needinfo> I have rebooted many, many times.
[09:51] <Gecko> mcsmurf: please tell me! :)
[09:52] <mcsmurf> yeah, I think that's it
[09:52] <draeath> fivre: dev-cpp comes with gcc compiled with mingw
[09:52] <alecjw> i have a wireless network set up, how do i make it connect?
[09:52] <strabes> alecjw: use network-manager-gnome
[09:52] <Falstius> needinfo: you can reboot into the command line by playing with grub ... select your normal boot, press 'e' for edit, go to the kernel line, press 'e' again and add 'single' to the end of the line.  Hit enter a few times and you're booting into the command line.
[09:52] <strabes> alecjw: you haev to install it
[09:52] <Falstius> needinfo: you might just be able to use the recovery boot option too .. I've never actually tried.
[09:53] <jvolkman> needinfo, boot in single-user mode
[09:53] <allz> ljl is it ok to get rid of glx ?
[09:53] <alecjw> strabes: i'm using a pentium with 32mb ram. network-manager-gnome somehow seems illogical
[09:53] <strabes> alecjw: wifi seems illogical
[09:53] <LjL> glx? no
[09:53] <anika> Anyone have adeb for gaim beta5?
[09:53] <Falstius> Gecko: you can use strace or lsof (which lists open files)
[09:53] <allz> ljl vitamin the channel operetor wine says .that get rid of glx then you will play cs fine
[09:53] <anika> !gaim

[09:54] <allz> how to remove glx ?
[09:54] <allz> then ljl
[09:54] <skenliv> is kopete better then gaim?
[09:55] <thevenin> skenliv: that iall your own preference
[09:55] <anika> skenliv: depends on what youlike
[09:55] <allz> ljl is kdm better then glx?
[09:55] <clearzen> I'm having trouble getting widescreen resolution on my laptop. Can anyone help me?
[09:55] <anika> I like functionality so gaim is better :)
[09:55] <strabes> alecjw: i dunno. if you don't want to use a panel based one then you would haev to configure it with network-admin
[09:56] <eigenlambda> skenliv: no
[09:56] <WonderWal> how do i load a module at startup? i know the name of  the module
[09:56] <alecjw> strabes: is that another graphical thing? is there any way of connecting in the commandline?
[09:56] <sampo_v2> is there a system like jigdo available which could be used to build custom ubuntu DVDs, and perhaps select which packages are installed on the iso filesystem?
[09:56] <eigenlambda> skenliv: unless, you really really really want everything to be kde
[09:56] <godfather> hi guys
[09:56] <godfather> i wish to know
[09:56] <eigenlambda> skenliv: otherwise, use gaim, it's what everybody else uses.  firefox, too.
[09:56] <allz> someone is KDM better then GLX?
[09:56] <anika> allz: What?
[09:56] <tgelter> I'm trying to encode an avi to mpeg4 compatible with ipod, anyone have experience with that?
[09:56] <godfather> ho t upgrade my dapper drake to edgy eft version
[09:57] <eigenlambda> in fact, unless you rly rly like kde, just use gnome, it's what everybody else uses

[09:58] <needinfo> I am now at grub command line. Thanks!
[09:58] <allz> anika i mean is kdm better then gdm?

[09:58] <allz> :x
[09:58] <anika> allz: I don'
[09:58] <anika> t know thatthere isa difference
[09:58] <jorgp> anyone know where to get the edgy artwork before it was canned and put back to dappers?
[09:58] <alecjw> mr_daniel: a kde program which is like amarok, but for midi files rather than audio files
[09:58] <allz> anika . is it ok to remove glx ?
[09:58] <ashzilla> what's the pptp client?
[09:59] <alecjw> strabes: so do you know what command i need?
[09:59] <anika> allz: Sure I guess
[09:59] <jorgp> allz, kdm is kde, gdm is gnome
