[05:50] <JonathanElli1> On my 7 year old Dell then I guess I wont be upgrading to intrepid then. Sounds like I would be setting myself up for hassles of it not working on such old hardware
[05:50] <bazhang> scunizi, I was using the 173 and had some problems, went to 177 and is a bit better but somethings are not so smooth (for 7300 not 8xxx series though) you may wish to check !notes
[05:50] <bazhang> yao_ziyuan1, I dont use it so easy to recover
[05:51] <bazhang> yao_ziyuan1, do you have a support question?
[05:51] <scunizi> bazhang, what's !notes.. it that a call to ubuutu?
[05:51] <bazhang> !notes
[05:51] <wastrel> ubuntu
[05:51] <bazhang> scunizi, see that
[05:51] <scunizi> ah
[05:51] <mib_z42ids> can adobe flash plugin v9 coexist with v10?  i rather use 10, but some sites get confused and consider it v1.0.  i want to run v9 on those few sites and v10 on the rest
[05:51] <bazhang> scunizi, may have something about your card
[05:51] <yao_ziyuan1> bazhang: once i did that
[05:51] <bazhang> mib_z42ids, no
[05:52] <yao_ziyuan1> bazhang: and my internet connection is gone
[05:52] <yao_ziyuan1> bazhang: i have to insert a live cd and manually download the package
[05:52] <bazhang> yao_ziyuan1, then open a terminal and fix it
[05:52] <wastrel> internet eh
[05:52] <yao_ziyuan1> bazhang: can't fix easily
[05:52] <bazhang> yao_ziyuan1, that is simply not true.
[05:53] <droopsta915> why do my proprietary drivers keep disabling ?
[05:54] <JonathanElli1> How would I know if a kernel upgrade caused problems? I have generic kernels 2.6.24-16 through 20 and realtime kernel 21 on this machine. Its a home office PC on a seven year old Dell. I tried the rt kernel to try and get an audio analyzer to work properly (it didnt help) so then I installed Ubuntustudio on my laptop to use the analyzer on and that works a treat. So I guess I could remove the rt kernel from this desktop machine and delete kernels 16
[05:54] <bazhang> JonathanElli1, if things like wireless stopped working (one indication)
[05:55] <hacker__> !enter
[05:55] <wastrel> JonathanElli1: it doesn't much matter if the kernel sits around on disk. the one that you boot into is the only one that matters.
[05:55] <JonathanElli1> bazhang: This machine doesnt run wireless
[05:55] <bazhang> JonathanElli1, then likely not a concern, you can delete the older ones (though I would keep one or two around)
[05:55] <scunizi> bazhang, ah.. yes.. the newer drivers are used for SSE systems. I've got a new board so I assume (dangerous) that it's sse enabled but I'll have to check the bios.. thanks for the pointer.
[05:56] <JonathanElli1> Is there any advantage or disadvantage of the rt kernel compared to the generic one for a desktop machine?
[05:56] <tritium> JonathanElli1: no
[05:56] <bazhang> JonathanElli1, depends what you are trying to do; audio recording for example benefits from the rt kernel
[05:56] <fryguy> rt kernel is designed to guarantee real time scheduling to programs.  It should result in a noticable degradation of program response and general "snappiness" when doing a lot of multitasking, because the rt scheduler will context switch more frequently
[05:57] <JonathanElli1> bazhang: I gathered that about audio recording. I dont use this machine for that. So it sounds like this desktop machine would benefit from going back to the generic kernel - specially as its fairly old hardware
[05:58] <bazhang> JonathanElli1, yup
[05:58] <^Cheeky> can anyone help me install this program ? i jave it and i untared itbut i dunno how to run it
[05:58] <ardchoille> ^Cheeky: What app is it?
[05:58] <JonathanElli1> Thanks all.
[05:59] <^Cheeky> ardchoille, http://sticky123.blogspot.com/2008/03/remuxing-mkv-to-m2ts-on-linux.html its from this site its  called tsMuxeR
[05:59] <mindrape> ^Cheeky: You probably need to make config then make install
[06:00] <ardchoille> ^Cheeky: is it just a video editor?
[06:00] <^Cheeky> mindrape, oh man..i dunno how to do this is there any other way i can do this ?
[06:00] <mindrape> ^Cheeky: you just want to run that shell script on that page?
[06:00] <mindrape> ./scriptname
[06:00] <mindrape> or if it needs root             sudo ./scriptname.sh
[06:00] <mindrape> as an example...
[06:00] <^Cheeky> ardchoille, actually i have no idea .. iam trying to follow this tutorial to do a conversion
[06:00] <mindrape> you will also need to chmod +x it.
[06:00] <tritium> !enter | mindrape
[06:01] <slipdipper> can anyone tell me what the "width" field in lshw displays?
[06:01] <ezzieyguywuf> i want my battery charge level to stay between 40-60% is there a program that will do this for me
[06:01] <ardchoille> ^Cheeky: Ah, ok
[06:01] <droopsta915> how can i get my proprietary drivers to enable? I had them workin and now they disable by them selves.
[06:02] <^Cheeky> mindrape, ok let me change file permissions and .. run it .. i  tried to run it earlier .. and i got this http://pastebin.com/d1014c667
[06:02] <Spanglegluppet> i want to completely remove all traces of firefox from my system. any help?
[06:03] <fryguy> Spanglegluppet: apt-get remove --purge firefox
[06:03] <ezzieyguywuf> Spanglegluppet: sudo apt-get --purge firefox
[06:03] <cloudy_nz> ...unless firefox is called iceweasel
[06:03] <ezzieyguywuf> Spanglegluppet: then maybe delete .mozzila from your home directory
[06:03] <tritium> ezzieyguywuf: that's missing "remove"
[06:03] <sanjiro> i have headphones on a newly installed partition of ubuntu 8.10, audio doesnt work out of the box - can someone help me out? i had realtek drivers on win32
[06:03] <texta> Hey guy's, anyone with any experience using dmraid ?
[06:03] <Spanglegluppet> fryguy: thanks
[06:03] <ezzieyguywuf> tritium: your right. whoops.
[06:03] <droopsta915> how can i get my proprietary drivers to enable? I had them workin and now they disable by them selves.
[06:04] <ezzieyguywuf> is there an application that can control the charge level of my battery? i want it between 40 and 70%
[06:04] <Prez00> hello, i have tracker to not do anything while on battery, but it seems it always wants to index, any idea? Intrepid..
[06:04] <christ> try reinsta;;
[06:04] <^Cheeky> mindrape, i still get the same error
[06:04] <tritium> droopsta915: please stop repeating.  Which drivers?
[06:04] <mindrape> ^Cheeky: the script is probably passing incorrect parameters
[06:04] <ardchoille> ^Cheeky: That isn't an error, that app looks like a command line app, you just need to read that "error" and run it properly
[06:05] <droopsta915> my wireless card was working and now the hardware driver says not in use.
[06:05] <jordan> I'm trying to use a theme but Ubuntu is warning me that the GTK+ Theme Engine isn't installed yet I can't find it in Apt and its not giving me any options to install it
[06:05] <Spanglegluppet> hang on, that didn't do anything
[06:05] <Spanglegluppet> firefox is still there
[06:05] <jordan> how do I fix this?
[06:05] <hubar_> Does intrepid support  Intel GMA 4500 MHD yet?
[06:06] <fryguy> jordan: which theme engine
[06:06] <\Kira> Could someone help me with my ubuntu server? Im trying to access the CUPS configuration web site. Here is my pastbin of the part I believe to be important: http://paste.ubuntu.com/72729/.
[06:06] <ardchoille> jordan: I get the same notifications on a few themes even though I do have the proper engine installed, it may be a bug. Is your theme working correctly?
[06:06] <^Cheeky> ardchoille, welll ok ..you have to give a file .. but .. the link that iam following says all the programs has the links has to be installed .. does that mean the app is already installed?
[06:06] <jordan> fryguy,  I just said ubuntu says GTK+ Theme Engine not installed
[06:06] <jordan> it never did this in 8.04
[06:06] <jordan> ardchoille, no hense why I'm trying to fix it
[06:06] <fryguy> jordan: sounds like something else is wrong, but anyways apt-cache search engine and find the right engine and install that
[06:06] <hubar_> I searched ubuntu forum, but http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=907936 at 2008/9/20, it has not been resolved yet.
[06:06] <Baatti> ok, I have a question ....
[06:07] <jordan> well I've noticed they removed stuff from apt for 8.10 like emerald
[06:07] <Baatti> everything I'm reading about Linux talks about how Admins have their home folder as ROOT... yet, nothing is on my ROOT folder in Ubuntu 8.10, please explain
[06:07] <tritium> jordan: emerald is still in the repos
[06:07] <tritium> !info emerald
[06:07] <^Cheeky> is there any other way to convert MKV to .m2ts format ?
[06:08] <jordan> tritium,  I tried searching for it a few mins ago 0 results
[06:08] <fryguy> Baatti: that's not really clear. can you elaborate?  the home directory for the root user is in /root/
[06:08] <ardchoille> jordan: This might be better for searching: apt-cache search engine | grep gtk
[06:08] <tritium> jordan: see above
[06:08] <Gnea> Baatti: there's a difference between the root account's home directory (/root) and the root directory of the system (/)
[06:08] <ssmy> I'm running my server on 7.10. I am trying to install finch (command-line equivalent of pidgin), but it keeps trying to install X. How can I avoid installing x?
[06:08] <jordan> ardchoille, yea it gives me like 200 packages
[06:08] <ardchoille> jordan: yeah, noticed that
[06:08] <fryguy> ssmy: you don't
[06:08] <jordan> tritium,  that really doesn't help me if apt-cache and apt-get can't find it
[06:08] <Baatti> gnea so, my home directory has access to root, cause I'm the admin, whereas another user (not admin) can't access /root? is that correct?
[06:08] <tritium> Baatti: you're reading a generic book, not specific to ubuntu.  Ubuntu disables the root account, and uses sudo for security.  See !sudo for more info.
[06:09] <Baatti> ah
[06:09] <jordan> I'll try switching mirrors
[06:09] <Baatti> I gotcha
[06:09] <ssmy> fryguy: let's assume I actually want to install finch.
[06:09] <tritium> jordan: it does help you by pointing out that you need to enable the universe repo
[06:09] <Baatti> so, any user can run as admin then?
[06:09] <fryguy> ssmy: so then you install it, apt-get install finch
[06:09] <jordan> tritium,  you mean the third party sources?
[06:09] <Gnea> Baatti: only if they're set to in sudoers
[06:09] <tritium> Baatti: no, only those in the admin group
[06:09] <fryguy> tritium: the root account isn't disabled, you just aren't provided with the password
[06:09] <Gnea> !sudo
[06:09] <tritium> jordan: no, the universe repo
[06:09] <jordan> and how do I enable that?
[06:09] <tritium> fryguy: no, it's disabled
[06:10] <Baatti> ah, so sudoers gives admin privs, and they need the admin password
[06:10] <tritium> Baatti: you grant users sudo access by adding them to the admin group.
[06:10] <Gnea> Baatti: you should just read the url given by ubottu to truely understand
[06:10] <fryguy> tritium: that's not true. It's possible to log in as root on a stock ubuntu install without changing anything, therefore the account isn't "disabled"
[06:10] <ssmy> I'll just install from source, see if that works...
[06:10] <Gnea> Baatti: then ask questions - it's easier that way :)
[06:10] <Baatti> gnea and tritium thank you both
[06:10] <tritium> fryguy: no.  "man passwd" and look for the -l (lock) switch.
[06:10] <wizzer> does update manager slow down anyone elses system
[06:11] <Baatti> i completely understand
[06:11] <fryguy> tritium: more specifically it's possible to obtain a login shell with id=0, and a corresponding entry in the utmp table
[06:11] <Gnea> Baatti: you're welcome
[06:11] <Sinani201> Does anyone know a free lightweight c++ editor?
[06:11] <fryguy> Sinani201: vim
[06:11] <Sinani201> Vim?
[06:11] <Sinani201> kthxbi
[06:11] <Gnea> !vim
[06:12] <^Cheeky> where can i go to get help with video conversion ? or some one can help me ?
[06:12] <\Kira> Could someone help me with my ubuntu server? Im trying to access the CUPS configuration web site. Here is my pastbin of the part I believe to be important: http://paste.ubuntu.com/72729/.
[06:12] <Gnea> ^Cheeky: ffmpeg and avidemux are usually pretty good with it
[06:12] <fryguy> tritium: "sudo su -" provides you with a login shell on a default ubuntu install.  is it recommended? no? does it prove that the account isn't "disabled"? yes
[06:12] <tritium> !sudo | fryguy
[06:13] <Gnea> fryguy: sudo -i  would be a better approach
[06:13] <^Cheeky> Gnea, ok i gues ill try
[06:13] <fryguy> Gnea: that it would.  I'm emphasizing that a previous statement was incorrect
[06:13] <Gnea> ^Cheeky: they're not easy, but tinker with them enough and you can get it done
[06:13] <Gnea> fryguy: :)
[06:14] <tritium> fryguy: read the wiki page.  The term "disabled" is appropriate.
[06:14] <bazhang> fryguy, its disabled
[06:14] <mankash> please provide sample /etc/hosts file
[06:14] <mankash> i can see 2 entries
[06:14] <^Cheeky> Gnea, there is simple program for windows that does this, but i cant find one .. for ubuntu
[06:14] <JonathanElli1> Upgrade manager is failing to upgrade properly because it says it cant authenticate a load of packages related to gnucash and libaqbanking. Dont know what to do about this because I need to use gnucash. libaqbanking allows gnucash to download information from my bank so I need to keep that too.
[06:15] <Gnea> mankash: http://www.faqs.org/docs/linux_scratch/chapter07/hosts.html
[06:15] <fryguy> tritium: where on that page does it explain "disabled" the word disabled occurs once in the page in a header explaining why it's good.  It doesn't specify how the user is disabled
[06:15] <bazhang> JonathanElli1, let us see your sources.list
[06:15] <mindrape> when people say the root account is disabled they mean from logging in... obviously the root account exists and is "usable"
[06:15] <fryguy> mindrape: and it's possible to obtain a login shell
[06:15] <mindrape> fryguy - obviously...
[06:15] <mindrape> but not w the root password.
[06:15] <mindrape> as its a "faceless" id in Ubuntu
[06:15] <Gnea> ^Cheeky: avidemux is probably the easiest - and ffmpeg is extendible if it doesn't support what you need out of the box
[06:16] <JonathanElli1> bazhang: can you remind me how to output the source list in the terminal
[06:16] <tritium> fryguy: read the passwd manpage, if you prefer.  The account is "locked".  No sense arguing over semantics.
[06:16] <bazhang> JonathanElli1, /etc/apt/sources.list you can cat that then paste.ubuntu.com with it
[06:16] <Born2Learn> Hey, I've seen a bunch of desktop screenshots on the internet with a widget showing your hostname, ip, cpu usage, and ram usage. Could anyone give me a link for a good one or help me set one up?
[06:17] <bazhang> JonathanElli1, or install pastebinit and cat /etc/apt/sources.list | pastebinit and give us the url
[06:17] <linxuz3r> what is new in ubuntu 8.10?
[06:17] <scunizi> JonathanD, or install pastebinit and then just "pastebinit /etc/apt/sources.list" in a termial and it will return a url
[06:17] <fryguy> tritium: so then why does sudo su - work? and why does logging in as root while having a public key in /root/.ssh/authorized_keys work? And why do entries in utmp and wtmp appear when these actions occur (which display a list of logged in users).
[06:17] <cyphase> when is eog going to get good svg support?
[06:17] <ardchoille> Born2Learn: gkrellm is a nice thing that onitors all of that in a nice and skinnable gui
[06:17] <bazhang> !notes > linxuz3r
[06:17] <wizzer> uh..stupid question, how can i tell if i'm like compiz or something else
[06:17] <tritium> fryguy: drop it.
[06:17] <^Cheeky> Gnea, avidmeaux does not support .m2ts i just donwnloaded it
[06:17] <Gnea> Born2Learn: right-click on your top desktop bar, "add to panel" and select the system monitor - you can customize it to add monitors for all of those things at the same time
[06:18] <fryguy> tritium: and why does root have a shell associated for it in /etc/passwd
[06:18] <Born2Learn> ardchoille: Thanks, gonna go google that now =D
[06:18] <faryshta> !notes > faryshta
[06:18] <bazhang> wizzer, go to appearances visual effects
[06:18] <tritium> fryguy: drop it, stay on topic, and read what I've sent you.
[06:18] <ardchoille> Born2Learn: gkrellm is in the repos: sudo apt-get install gkrellm
[06:18] <ssmy> Born2Learn: also check out Conky
[06:18] <ardchoille> conky is good too, forgot about that one
[06:18] <bryantms> is there a way to see everything that is in the repository?
[06:18] <Born2Learn> ardchoille and ssmy: thanks :D
[06:19] <Gnea> ^Cheeky: i'm pretty sure that avidemux doesn't support blu-ray yet.
[06:19] <scunizi> bryantms, use synaptic
[06:19] <wizzer> so, none would be
[06:19] <wizzer> nothing?
[06:19] <JonathanElli1> bazhang: My sources list is at http://pastebin.com/f5b353b6b
[06:19] <bazhang> wizzer, right
[06:19] <ssmy> bryantms: that woulrd be a huge list.
[06:19] <ezzieyguywuf> i'm trying to install the tp-smapi module using http://www.ubuntu-unleashed.com/2007/09/howto-extend-life-of-your-thinkpads.html that link. I see that in synaptic i can get the source-code for the module. Where would it put the source code if i downloaded from synaptic, and would i just build the source from there?
[06:19] <wizzer> k, thank you
[06:19] <bryantms> but there's no where online to look at it?
[06:19] <candive> ! medibuntu

[06:20] <bazhang> JonathanElli1, the ones you added manually are the problem ones
[06:20] <scunizi> ezzieyguywuf, if you install build-essential it might compile and install for you on download..
[06:20] <bazhang> anthis, no cursing
[06:20] <ezzieyguywuf> scunizi: hm, ok i'll try that
[06:20] <Tetracomm> Hello.
[06:21] <Tetracomm> When I select: "Install to USB drive" it doesn't detect my MP3 player as a USB drive, why?
[06:21] <JonathanElli1> bazhang: I have just removed all the ones connected with synce as I no longer use that but I need to keep the libaqbanking one
[06:21] <scunizi> ezzieyguywuf, no gurantees that will work .. but I think synaptic is smart enough to do that.
[06:21] <Tetracomm> but it is mounted as a USB drive in Nautilus
[06:21] <ezzieyguywuf> scunizi: i'll search ubuntu forums for a bit and use that as a last resort. thanks for your help
[06:21] <bazhang> JonathanElli1, how did you remove and did you update after saving that file
[06:21] <Gnea> ^Cheeky: this might help: http://www.bitburners.com/articles/convert-mkv-video-files-to-m2ts-for-playstation-3-using-tsmuxer/4015/
[06:21] <ssmy> Tetracomm: what is it formatted as?
[06:22] <Tetracomm> ssmy: I don't know.
[06:22] <Tetracomm> ssmy: How do I check?
[06:22] <JonathanElli1> bazhang: Removed them in synaptic and then updated
[06:22] <ssmy> Tetracomm: try unmounting it in Nautilus first?
[06:22] <^Cheeky> Gnea, yeah but its for windows ..
[06:22] <Tetracomm> It is a Creative Zen.
[06:22] <Zurah> Hello.
[06:23] <bazhang> JonathanElli1, but they are still there in your sources.list ; best to put a # in front of the problematic ones then save and update
[06:23] <ardchoille> JonathanElli1: Not a good idea to mix repos from different distros
[06:23] <Gnea> ^Cheeky: it's not? says who?
[06:23] <fryguy> after I use sudo in a shell, and enter my password, how much time must elapsed before I am prompted for my password on future sudo commands?

[06:24] <JonathanElli1> bazhang: I removed them after pastebining so they are not in the sources list anymore. I have just disabled the libaqbanking one to see if the upgrade will work.

[06:28] <bazhang> JonathanElli1, what version of gnucash do you need

[06:29] <linxuz3r> lmao @ cloudy_nz
[06:29] <linxuz3r> sup cloudy_nz
[06:30] <linxuz3r> cloudy_nz: nice nick
[06:30] <Zurah> Gnea, it didn't help... All I hear from the test recording is a beep.
[06:30] <ssmy> edlv: look into mplayer
[06:30] <linxuz3r> where did you get it?
[06:30] <cloudy_nz> linxuz3r: hi, thx
[06:30] <linxuz3r> asl please?
[06:30] <joot> edlv, try this link  http://ask.metafilter.com/31721/How-do-I-listen-to-an-APE-file

[06:30] <Gnea> !asl | linxuz3r
[06:31] <linxuz3r> nothing
[06:31] <JonathanElli1> bazhang: http://wiki.gnucash.org/wiki/Debian. Now I see a reason to upgrade to intrepid. Blast!
[06:32] <Gnea> Zurah: well i just did a google search for: ubuntu mic howto  there are several links there, that seemed to be the most likely
[06:33] <iggi> hi
[06:33] <Zurah> I've looked at them, Gnea, thanks though... This is a strange problem, as the mic works with windows.
[06:33] <jordan_> alright another issue, I hooked up my USB headset and when I switched the sound properties over to Logitech USB headset and now music won't play and all audio players kinda have a spaz attack
[06:33] <jordan_> at this rate I'm considering downgrading to 8.04
[06:33] <Gnea> Zurah: you've made sure the mic and mic boost aren't muted and turned on and that capture is turned on?
[06:33] <Flannel> fryguy: `sudo -k` will clear your timestamp
[06:34] <faryshta> Hi, someone here have tried to use the new beta of XFCE?
[06:34] <ssmy> Zurah: try opening volume control, go to preferences, make sure mic is on. make sure it isn't muted
[06:34] <Flannel> fryguy: Also, you can modify the timeout in sudoers
[06:34] <fryguy> Flannel: what do I change to make the timeout instantaneous
[06:34] <Zurah> I have made sure that the mic isn't muted and that the capture is turned on.
[06:34] <Flannel> fryguy: Set it in your sudoers
[06:34] <fryguy> Flannel: set what, there is no mention of time or duration in my sudoers file
[06:34] <JonathanElli1> bazhang: So It seems I can choose between disabling updates for Gnucash or upgrading to Intrepid.
[06:35] <Zurah> Mic boost's on to-- when I try to record anything, however, all that plays back is a loud tone.
[06:35] <Gnea> Zurah: what are you using to record with?
[06:36] <telco> I just upgraded to 8.10 and now my screen shuts off in the middle of the boot.  The forums is full of similar problems.  Can someone here help me out?
[06:36] <Zurah> The default sound recorder that came with ubuntu 8.10.
[06:36] <Originooo> hey, i've installed virtualbox on 8.04 but i can't capture the mouse. it looks like virtual box can't find this device. Im using a standard usb one....does anyone know the problem?
[06:36] <Gnea> I suggest audacity
[06:36] <joot> telco, are you using a shared memory card?
[06:37] <Flannel> fryguy: That's because its not given a default value in sudoers, but you can specify it.
[06:37] <Zurah> LOL How funny.
[06:37] <fryguy> Flannel: how do i specify it
[06:37] <^Cheeky> Gnea, i tired using ffmpeg with this line ffmpeg -i file.mkv -vcodec mpeg2video -acodec ac3 file.avi; mv file.avi file.m2ts but it gave me an error : http://pastebin.com/d5bcee5f1
[06:37] <telco> @joot  I don't think so.  Why?
[06:37] <Zurah> I was wiggling my foot under my desk, bumping the cord on my mic, when suddenly I heard it through my speakers.
[06:37] <Zurah> It's working now, though I've no idea why.
[06:37] <Flannel> fryguy: man sudoers, timestamp_timeout
[06:38] <joot> telco, I had the same prob and decided that was the cause I have gone back to hardy now
[06:38] <adouba> hi
[06:38] <fryguy> Flannel: what is the syntax to use?  I tried appending it but visudo is telling me that the syntax is wrong
[06:38] <Zurah> Wait, no! It won't record, but the sound is coming through the speakers.
[06:38] <telco> @joot  I honestly don't know.  It's an ATI onboard for my laptop.
[06:38] <faryshta> Have someone give a try to the beta release of XFCE 4.6?
[06:39] <Gnea> ^Cheeky: try #ffmpeg
[06:39] <telco> I am in the process of getting hardy ISO right now.  That's my plan too.
[06:39] <telco> Unless I can figure something out.
[06:39] <ssmy> Zurah: generally the easiest way in my experience to get microphones to work is just to keep messing with it until it works
[06:39] <^Cheeky> Gnea, seems dead .. :/
[06:39] <joot> telco, I really think that may be your problem but I an not a geek so try your question again in a few minutes
[06:39] <Gnea> ^Cheeky: just be patient
[06:40] <^Cheeky> Gnea, ok
[06:40] <Flannel> fryguy: It it anywhere an option is valid.  Defaults would be a good line to append it to.
[06:40] <Zurah> ssmy, I've been messing for a while. Whatever goes into my mic comes out my speakers, but when I try to record from the mic, it doesn't work.
[06:41] <telco> @joot It seems to be quite a common problem.  Not just my card.  Actually I have a desktop machine that I'm using as a server that had the same problem.  Or at least it seems the same.  But when I boot with the old kernel that one works fine.  But this one doesn't work with the old kernel even.
[06:41] <sanjiro> my sound card is detected, ive checked alsamixer and nothing is muted, regular volume settings nothing muted... what's missing that i need to do to enable sound?
[06:42] <alex_mayorga> is this already packaged for Intrepid http://www.broadcom.com/support/802.11/linux_sta.php ?
[06:42] <fryguy> Flannel: I added another Defaults line underneath the first one: Defaults timestamp_timeout=0  and it's giving me a syntax error still
[06:42] <towlie> if i want to modify a non boot partition, can i use gparted to do it  ?
[06:42] <Flannel> fryguy: Append it to the other line.  Don't have two Default lines.
[06:42] <wastrel> man sudoers is my favorite manpage
[06:43] <joot> telco, It is a bit odd installed 8.10 on two old machines one just failed and the other just worked both similar spec micro atx sharedmem boards so I really am a bit clueless
[06:43] <fryguy> Flannel: Defaults env_reset timestamp_timeout=0   still getting a syntax error
[06:43] <fr500> hi
[06:44] <fr500> i set hddparm to enter standby after one hour of non activity
[06:44] <Flannel> fryguy: that shouldn't be your sudoers file, unless you've modified it before.  Care to pastebin what you've got?  (By default, contains no unique information)
[06:44] <fr500> but it never goes to standby
[06:44] <alex_mayorga> !sta
[06:44] <fr500> do I need to enable laptop mode?
[06:44] <towlie> when i run gparted it says scanning all devices but never seems to finish scanning. has anyone else had this problem ?
[06:44] <fryguy> Flannel: i've never modified my sudoers file before, this is a stock install in a vm that i'm working with right now
[06:44] <wastrel> fryguy: you're using visudo yes?
[06:44] <fryguy> Flannel: i don't feel comfortable making changes to this file on a real install until i'm comfortable with what exactly it's doing
[06:44] <fryguy> wastrel: yes
[06:45] <towlie> can anyone help me ?
[06:45] <Flannel> fryguy: You put commas in between the options.
[06:45] <ImJesusChrist> Towlie, do you remember your password
[06:45] <towlie> of course
[06:45] <ImJesusChrist> maybe if u get hi
[06:45] <ImJesusChrist> high
[06:45] <ImJesusChrist> u can remember
[06:45] <towlie> :p
[06:45] <towlie> not funny
[06:45] <telco> @joot  That is strange.  I totally should have checked the forums BEFORE I tried to upgrade.  Although I probably would have said "Meh, it won't happen to me" anyway.  Lol.
[06:46] <towlie> ImJesusChrist,
[06:46] <towlie> can you help me out
[06:46] <ImJesusChrist> yes
[06:46] <towlie> ok
[06:46] <joot> telco, Me too lol 20/20 hindsight
[06:46] <ImJesusChrist> HaHAHaHa My visions 5
[06:47] <fryguy> Flannel: here is my sudoers file.  if this Defaults line isn't supposed to be there, why is it there on this stock install? http://pastebin.com/f342a21ed   what does it do and can i get rid of it
[06:47] <telco> @joot Hehehe yeah.
[06:47] <abby> hey folks
[06:47] <towlie> i have 3 partition 1. is linux 2 is empty ntfs 3 is empty fat32 partition and 4 is swap. i want to merge partitions 2 and 3
[06:47] <kindofabuzz> OT, but could a apache guru PM me? I'm banned from #apache =)
[06:47] <towlie> oops 4 partitions
[06:47] <Flannel> fryguy: env_reset,foobar=0
[06:47] <abby> a friend of mine has Intrepid, and they are trying to play WoW with the fglrx driver
[06:47] <abby> However, the graphics get all garbled when it starts up
[06:47] <fryguy> Flannel: if env_reset isn't supposed to be there according to you, what should I do?  It was put there as part of the installation.
[06:47] <abby> Can anyone point me to the right place?
[06:48] <telco> So I guess now I need to know how to roll back without losing my configuration.  I spent a lot of time in 8.04 and it was working flawlessly.    If it was there, it's there.  That's just a spartan sudoers from what I'm used to.  Perhaps thats just newer versions.
[06:48] <abby> anyone?
[06:48] <qbmaniac> no
[06:48] <fryguy> Flannel: so I shouldn't get rid of this?
[06:49] <joot> telco, not sure that rolling back is an option :-(((
[06:49] <jordan_> every time I try to plug in my 500gig external drive I get a Cannot mount volume error
[06:49] <tekirai> hello all I was needing some with the madwifi install inst
[06:49] <qbmaniac> abby: run windows virtualized would be my best option
[06:49] <qbmaniac> and run it on windows in virtualbo
[06:49] <qbmaniac> virtualbox*
[06:49] <ssmy> jordan_: was it last mounted on windows?
[06:49] <Flannel> fryguy: No.  I just said not two Defaults
[06:50] <abby> qbmaniac, I can run 3D apps virtualized? You sure?
[06:50] <jordan_> ssmy, its a NTFS drive and yes last mounted on windows but we always make sure to eject the volume before shutting it off
[06:50] <LF|Irssi> virtualbox doesn do 3d acceleration though does it?
[06:50] <qbmaniac> abby as far as I know it does
[06:50] <qbmaniac> doesnt it?
[06:50] <qbmaniac> I've not tried gaming so far
[06:50] <fryguy> Flannel: you also said that env_reset shouldn't be there. I want to make sure i'm not compromising system security any further
[06:50] <cyphase> does anyone know of a program the smoothly lets you zoom in and out of an svg image?
[06:50] <Flannel> fryguy: No.
[06:50] <abby> I'm not so sure Vbox can do 3D
[06:50] <LF|Irssi> the new Vmware Workstation does 3d
[06:50] <abby> Really?
[06:50] <qbmaniac> vmware costs doeesnt it?
[06:50] <LF|Irssi> aye
[06:50] <abby> We have money lol
[06:50] <qbmaniac> nice
[06:50] <tekirai> can someone help me with madwifi install
[06:50] <ardchoille> I thought vmware was all free now
[06:51] <joot> telco, not sure that rolling back is an option :-(((cyphase, inkscape
[06:51] <abby> If VMware can do 3D then I'm sure we will buy it
[06:51] <telco> I sure hope it is.
[06:51] <LF|Irssi> Worksstation is not free
[06:51] <ardchoille> ah
[06:51] <qbmaniac> abby: check it out on internet first
[06:51] <fryguy> Flannel: the fact that sudo defaults to not prompting for password for a period of time worries me about other default settings I'm not aware of.  Seeing this Defaults line that is claimed shouldn't be there worries me is all
[06:51] <joot> cyphase, inkscape
[06:51] <cyphase> joot: i've tried inkscape. not as smooth as i'd like
[06:51] <qbmaniac> to see what others have said about 3d acceleration under it.
[06:51] <abby> LF, so vmware does 3d eh
[06:51] <LF|Irssi> Vm workstation does yes
[06:51] <telco> Meh, it won't be the end of the world.  As long as I can save my data.  Which I'm sure I can.
[06:51] <abby> LF, freakin sweet
[06:51] <joot> cyphase, ok I do not know then
[06:52] <cyphase> joot: thanks anyway
[06:52] <Flannel> fryguy: I said "shouldn't be there" because I've never seen it.  If its the default, it's the default.  If you want to know exactly what it does (and what else you may want), check the man page.
[06:53] <phillipbeynon> Hi All.  I have a boot issue with my Ubuntu 8.04.1 system.  I've attempted several fixes and I've come to an impass.  Is this the right chan to ask for help? :)
[06:53] <LF|Irssi> yep phillipbeynon just ask
[06:54] <tekirai> madwifi anyone

[06:55] <fryguy> does ubuntu provide any official support for logging in via kerberos?
[06:55] <guestguestnew> hi, i am a complete noob at this, i have two PCs currently on right now, both on ubuntu, connected to the same router. But when i go to network i don't see anything, nothing showing that there is another computer
[06:55] <abby> Hey Smith
[06:56] <uznut> fag
[06:56] <abby> uznut, hey watch out now :p
[06:57] <Zurah> My mic input is coming through my speakers, but not recording. How can I fix this?
[06:57] <faryshta> Really weird but interesting question. Have someone be able to install Frostwire using OpenJDK?
[06:57] <guestguestnew> hi, i am a complete noob at this, i have two PCs currently on right now, both on ubuntu, connected to the same router. But when i go to network i don't see anything, nothing showing that there is another computer
[06:58] <guestguestnew> on windows, as soon as i connect both computers to the router, i can instantly see that there is another computer
[06:58] <abortd> i just installed windows on a partition it killed grub i reinstalled everything so windows is out of my grub menu now i try to fix it how the ubuntu website says and the windows boot option wont work any ideas?
[06:58] <Bsims> guestguestnew: hrm sounds like you need to install samba
[06:59] <phillipbeynon> LF|Irssi, I pasted my TS notes into the window rather than flood the chan further.
[06:59] <adouba> h
[06:59] <guestguestnew> Bsims, i'm not trying to connect to a windows network
[06:59] <guestguestnew> Bsims, both are on ubuntu now
[06:59] <LF|Irssi> what "window" phillipbeynon ? don ttalk to me talk to the channel :)
[06:59] <Bsims> guestguestnew: I know but its still an easy way to network the two together
[07:00] <guestguestnew> Bsims, but samba is designed to connect to windows networks? shouldn't linux have its on networking?
[07:00] <fryguy> guestguestnew: it does
[07:00] <jujuthecow> how do i uninstall ubuntu?
[07:00] <ssmy> ]NFS
[07:00] <tdawgedogg> hey im installing ubuntu 8.04...should i make it a primary or logical partition?
[07:00] <Bsims> It does but samba is usually less hassle and works with the others
[07:00] <guestguestnew> fryguy: how do i set it up?
[07:01] <ssmy> tdawgedogg: do you have existing partitions?
[07:01] <phillipbeynon> Issue: Starting up …  Loading, please wait…  kinit: name_to_dev_t(/dev/disk/by-uuid/bd656dcd-04b4-412f-a880-62a6553bd8b) = sda5(8,5)  kinit: trying to resume from /dev/disk/by-uuid/bd656dcd-04b4-412f-a880-62a6553bd8b  kinit: No resume image, doing normal boot…
[07:01] <tdawgedogg> no existing partitions on that drive
[07:01] <fryguy> guestguestnew: install nfs, add entries to /etc/exports, put those mounts in /etc/ftsab if you want to make them easier to mount, and that's it
[07:01] <tdawgedogg> but i have a shit load of other drives
[07:01] <lolo2> does anyone know how to fix the Unknown encoder 'mpeg4' error in ffmpeg?
[07:01] <fryguy> Bsims: not only would i disagree that samba is easier, nfs is also measurably faster than samba
[07:01] <ssmy> guestguestnew: search on the ubuntu forums
[07:01] <jujuthecow> no partitions
[07:01] <tritium> tdawgedogg: no need for foul language, thank you
[07:01] <tdawgedogg> sorry
[07:02] <tdawgedogg> bad habits
[07:02] <jujuthecow> tell me about it
[07:02] <towlie> hey guys i need help. i have 4 partitions 1. is linux 2. is an empty ntfs partition 3. is empty fat partition and 4 is swap. i want to merge partitions 2 and 3 in gparted. do i need to reinstall the boot loader after i do this ?
[07:02]  * Bsims nods true enough fryguy... its mostly that I've used samba before and not nfs
[07:02] <tdawgedogg> so i use primary if i dont have any other partitions on the drive?
[07:03] <ssmy> towlie: maybe? i don't know. if you need to just search the internet for 'reinstall grub'
[07:03] <ssmy> tdawgedogg: generally, yes.
[07:03] <jujuthecow> is there a way to play maplestory on ubuntu?
[07:03] <ssmy> google is your friend
[07:04] <tdawgedogg> ssmy: also can i choose to install ubuntu without grub bootloadeR?
[07:04] <jim_p> goodmorning guys. has anyone ever used wifiradar? i cant wait to ditch wicd as well :P
[07:04] <phillipbeynon> Who can help me with this issue as poste above please?
[07:04] <jim_p> phillipbeynon: this is no error
[07:05] <jim_p> phillipbeynon: i get more or less the same every single time. does the pc boot normally after that??
[07:05] <phillipbeynon> pardon me for my ignorance, but I don't understand the signifigance of the statement flly
[07:05] <Zurah> Any idea why my mic is routed through my speakers, but not able to record onto the computer?
[07:05] <jim_p> phillipbeynon: ??
[07:06] <jim_p> Zurah: improper module configuration
[07:06] <ssmy> tdawgedogg: not really... you need a bootloader.
[07:06] <ssmy> Zurah: perhaps your mic is for some reason routed through line-in?
[07:06] <phillipbeynon> Yes, jim_p?
[07:06] <FluxD> I have a question regarding running an executable. I saw usually you have to do ./name but what if I want to run it form home dir like /home/abc/1234/name. How would I run that?
[07:06] <joot> philiiipbeynon, Is your computer booting ??
[07:06] <Zurah> ssmy, how would I fix that, if it were?
[07:06] <Bsims> Whats a good perfectly supported motherboard chipset/nic combo for intel... I'm wanting something middle of the road, I don't overclock but do expect rocksolid performance
[07:06] <tdawgedogg> i keep getting an error when i install ubuntu.....error 5 when i try to boot after install
[07:07] <tdawgedogg> i have 10 hard drives in this machine...but stilll
[07:07] <jujuthecow> how do use launch .exe files? Every time i try to it says i need another program to launch a launchable program...
[07:07] <Bsims> FluxD: /home/abc/1234/name/exe
[07:07] <mkquist> FluxD: just give the full pathname when you try to run it
[07:07] <mkquist> FluxD: llike that above.. lol
[07:07] <FluxD> Bsims, mkquist thanks let me try that
[07:07] <jim_p> phillipbeynon: does it boot normally ? then there is no need to worry. at that point the most worrying circumstance to happen is a kernel panic.
[07:07] <phillipbeynon> jim_p, no the machine doesn't boot past it. It attepts to load xwindows but then drops to the terminal.
[07:08] <alex_mayorga> my AltGr key is non functional, any ideas?
[07:08] <jim_p> phillipbeynon: wait. does it show the ubuntu loading screen?
[07:08] <alex_mayorga> already triple checked my keyboard layout
[07:09] <FluxD> Bsims, mkquist not working, here is what I am doing /home/fluxd/pisg/pisg (name of exe)
[07:09] <phillipbeynon> jim_p: the F8 terminal hangs. If I switch to F1 i get "Starting up …  Loading, please wait…  Ubuntu 8.04.1 (None) tty1  (none) Login:"
[07:10] <jim_p> phillipbeynon: then it loads but it does not reach X
[07:10] <ssmy> alex_mayorga: broken keyboard?
[07:10] <cube> is there a speech recognition app?
[07:10] <alex_mayorga> ssmy, was working just right moments ago
[07:11] <jim_p> cube: i think festival
[07:11] <Zurah> ssmy: How would I fix my mic being routed through the line-in?
[07:11] <alex_mayorga> ssmy, everything works just fine, but the AltGr "modifier", really odd
[07:12] <tekirai> need help with madwifi someone please PM me
[07:12] <jim_p> cube: my mistake, festival is text to speech
[07:12] <ssmy> Zurah: no idea. try looking for people knowlegeable about pulseaudio
[07:12] <jim_p> tekirai: can you be more specific?
[07:12] <ohdamnallnics> Can anyone help me install ubuntu on a g3 using USB Thumbdrive?
[07:12] <jim_p> phillipbeynon: what vga are you on?
[07:12] <cube> jim_p thanks anyway though
[07:13] <jim_p> cube you are welcome
[07:13] <bjordan> during install, can ubuntu resize NTFS partitions without loss of data?
[07:13] <Zurah> Thanks, I'll look that up.
[07:13] <phillipbeynon> jim_p: correct, it attempts to load.   the UBUNTU screen comes up and the progress bar goes half way across before pausing for a while then moving again for a bit, then the creen fills with "/etc/init.d/rc: 317: Permission Denied"
[07:13] <jim_p> bjordan: before install, yes. open gparted and shrink the partition
[07:13] <alex_mayorga> ohdamnllnics, clarify "g3", please
[07:13] <ohdamnallnics> bjordan, you are going to be fine,  you can resize NTFS without loss of daddy
[07:13] <tekirai> my unbunt install uses the restricted driver for an ahteros wifi card in my toshiba laptop but when I go under the network manager it does not work and this is the last piece of hardware that is keeping me from using unbuntu full time need some help getting it to work
[07:13] <jujuthecow> i installed ubuntu a couple hours ago and now i cant install windows xp pro back on my comp no partitions any idea?
[07:13] <ohdamnallnics> alex_mayorga, mac g3
[07:14] <jim_p> has anyone ever used wifiradar? i cant wait to ditch wicd as well :P
[07:14] <alex_mayorga> ohdamnallnics, does it have USB boot?
[07:14] <bjordan> ohdamnallnics, jim_p: thanks (this was for a friend, making the switch)
[07:14] <FluxD> Bsims, mkquist not working, here is what I am doing /home/fluxd/pisg/pisg (name of exe) is that right?
[07:14] <jim_p> ohdamnallnics: well you will need a ppc based cd to make the installation there.
[07:15] <phillipbeynon> jim_p: "What VGA" I'm unsure what your trying to get at here. it is a laptop, so I'm using the LCD.
[07:15] <mkquist> FluxD: did you set permissions for it?
[07:15] <ohdamnallnics> alex_mayorga, yeah, the problem is im using a PC, and i want to install ubuntu on the thumbdrive and boot the g3 with it, i already ahve the ppc install cd
[07:15] <joot> bjordan, it is recommended the you defrag win before doing the resize
[07:15] <FluxD> mkquist, yup ./pisg works fine
[07:15] <ohdamnallnics> jim_p, read above lol
[07:15] <jim_p> phillipbeynon: paste here the output of this               lspci | grep VGA
[07:15] <cube> looks like only way for voice to text in ubuntu is wine with dragon natural speeking
[07:15] <tekirai> cane someone help with with an atheros wificard
[07:16] <alex_mayorga> is this already packaged http://www.broadcom.com/docs/linux_sta/README.txt I'm still stuck with a non working Broadcom Corporation BCM4311 802.11b/g WLAN (rev 01)
[07:16] <bjordan> joot: is it worth restarting to do that, in your opinion?
[07:16] <mkquist> FluxD: hmm should work...
[07:16] <ohdamnallnics> can anyone give me an idea of how to copy the ppc iso onto a thumbdrive?
[07:16] <ssmy> bjordan: look around you can defrag the win partition form linux. google
[07:16] <joot> bjordan, I truly do not know just quoting conventional wisdom
[07:16] <jim_p> ohdamnallnics: i read above! last time ubuntu made a ppc live cd was on 6.10! are you sure you will make a kernel yourself to boot it?
[07:17] <ohdamnallnics> jim_p, i found an 8.04 port on the ubuntu site
[07:17] <alex_mayorga> ohdamnallnics, use an intrepid wubi install and create a USB startup disk from the iso
[07:17] <ssmy> ohdamnallnics: look for any old tutorial on making an ubuntu flash drive. also, i thought ubuntu hasn't had a ppc port since like 6.10
[07:17] <ssmy> jim_p: woah. you said it.
[07:17] <jim_p> ssmy: thanks. big brains meet :P
[07:18] <Baatti> omg, I'm so in love with Linux!!!
[07:18] <Baatti> it's so much fun!
[07:18] <jim_p> ohdamnallnics: can you give us a link to that "port"?
[07:18] <jujutheco1> IS NOT!!!
[07:18] <ssmy> Baatti: =)
[07:18] <jujutheco1> cant frekin play maplestory
[07:18] <Baatti> is too!
[07:18] <alex_mayorga> Baatti, how is it so? no fun, eeverything just works, but my pesky Broadcom Corporation BCM4311 802.11b/g WLAN (rev 01)
[07:18] <ssmy> maybe debian? they have ports for pretty much every arch known to man
[07:18] <jeebster> jujutheco, WINE?
[07:18] <ohdamnallnics> cdimage.ubuntu.com/ports/releases/hardy/release/
[07:19] <jujutheco1> dont have windows to run wine
[07:19] <jeebster> what...
[07:19] <jujutheco1> or a partition
[07:19] <jeebster> it doesn't need windows
[07:19] <jeebster> nor a partition
[07:19] <Baatti> alex_mayorga:  did you try changing the blacklist?
[07:19] <jeebster> (a windows one)
[07:19] <jujutheco1> and every time i download it it wont launch
[07:19] <alex_mayorga> Baatti: enlighten me please
[07:19] <phillipbeynon> jim_p: "00:02.0 VGA compatable controller:Intel corporation module 945GM/GMS, 943/940GML Express Integrated Graphice Controller (Rev 03)"
[07:19] <jeebster> just install wine and try :P
[07:19] <joot> alex_mayorga, there is a good broadcom howto at ubuntu forums
[07:19] <ohdamnallnics> jim_p, did you get the link? here it is again: cdimage.ubuntu.com/ports/releases/hardy/release/
[07:19] <ssmy> jim_p: they do have one. hmm
[07:20] <ssmy> i had no idea
[07:20] <jim_p> ohdamnallnics: oh. then download the desktop version cd from there and make a bootable usb out of it!
[07:20] <ohdamnallnics> so, would unetbootin work?
[07:20] <Baatti> alex_mayorga ok, just a sec, I forget the exact command... something like sudo chmod somethingorother blacklist somethingelse
[07:20] <ssmy> ohdamnallnics: maybe.
[07:20] <ohdamnallnics> woudl unetbootin work for a ppc boot?
[07:20] <ohdamnallnics> ok
[07:20] <ohdamnallnics> ill try it and let you know how it goes
[07:20] <ssmy> personally i have never gotten a successful install from a flash drive
[07:20] <jeebster> I've done it a couple of times
[07:20] <jeebster> With my eeepc
[07:21] <ssmy> ohdamnallnics: all it does is put an iso on a flash drive and make it bootable. the arch doesn't matter.
[07:21] <ohdamnallnics> nice okay, thank you
[07:21] <jim_p> phillipbeynon: are you on command line now?
[07:22] <KentuckyBigFoot> Afternoon all. I am on Knoppix 5.4 LiveDVD since it appears a virus might be digging into my Windows Pro. I am attempting to run ClamAV but when I run freshclam (sudo freshclam) it complains that I am out of date but  me  being the noob I am, does anyone know where I I can get a precompiled version of ClamAV?
[07:23] <ssmy> KentuckyBigFoot: afternoon? 1:20 in the morning here.
[07:23] <TarBar> Is it possible to paste in putty? i went onto it and right clicked and no idea if it worked?
[07:23] <phillipbeynon> jip_p: I am currently logged in using a user account.  I can get a root login via the recovery option or use sudo
[07:23] <jim_p> KentuckyBigFoot: since clam has that "specialty", why dont you download a live cd of antivir or f-secure and do the scan? they self-update if they find a way to the net
[07:23] <ssmy> TarBar: try changing the prefs.
[07:24] <TarBar> ok
[07:24] <werdnum> How can I change the font size for the login window?
[07:24] <werdnum> The text in the textboxes is way too big.
[07:24] <ssmy> i'm in putty right now, unfortunately.
[07:24] <jujutheco1> brb need some cookies
[07:24] <alex_mayorga> my card currently is using Kernel driver in use: b43-pci-bridge it registers on the AP just fine using WEP, but I can't ping the router at <IP_ADDRESS> when unwired
[07:24] <ssmy> mmm, cookies...
[07:24] <KentuckyBigFoot> jim_p:  oh! Have you ever used either of them? Or just know of them? Some feedback would be great ;). I read f-secure's blog from time to time and it's a trustworthy company I know that but how well does the live cd work>
[07:25] <jim_p> werdnum: use another gdm theme, or edit the .xml file that coresponds to that theme you use
[07:25] <werdnum> jim_p: k, thanks :)
[07:25] <flemco> bye
[07:26] <jim_p> KentuckyBigFoot: well i have used the fsecure one once to scan a pc. it could not update itself because the kernel could not recognise the ethernet controller. scanning took ~1hour+ and the pc proved to be clean. antivir live cds regemerate daily or weekly
[07:26] <UnknownUser56> Downloaded Ubuntu-9.10-desktop-i386 extracted the files,and there's a 9gb file called root.disk in ubuntu\disk
[07:27] <UnknownUser56> What's it about ?
[07:27] <jim_p> UnknownUser56: why did you extract it : :\
[07:27] <jim_p> ??

[07:27] <jim_p> phillipbeynon: can i pm you?
[07:27] <jujutheco1> does it start?
[07:28] <UnknownUser56> jim_p ,it was an iso file ,by default I though it should be extracted .. shouldn't it ?
[07:28] <jim_p> UnknownUser56: no. it should be burn to a blank cd disk with nero or something. do you know the procedure?
[07:28] <ghostlines> how to send postfix mail via port 587?

[07:57] <joebodo> kasutaja - running wubi - this just started today, been running 8.10 for a couple of weeks now
[07:57] <kasutaja> tdawgedogg, sure
[07:58] <joebodo> kasutaja the drive is mounted - seems to have trouble writing to it
[07:58] <mojo> nobody knows much about compiz and gconf for gtk decorators here?
[07:58] <kasutaja> joebodo, wait, you run ubuntu directly from windows and want to mount the windows drive to linux too?
[07:59] <joebodo> kasutaja im running wubi - it's automatically mounted when i boot
[08:00] <kasutaja> joebodo, sorry, never tried wubi
[08:00] <joebodo> kasutaja it installs a sudo partition on a windows ntfs filesystem -

[08:25] <bazhang> ce_merah_smg, english please
[08:25] <RUMMY> I know that
[08:26] <tisch_> it's in pigdin preferences
[08:26] <RUMMY> problem is in sound device I think so
[08:26] <courtjesterg_> sso what did i download to obtain this xchat cause i don't know where it came from?
[08:26] <RUMMY> now I run test of sound and
[08:26] <RUMMY> problem is in it
[08:26] <Surlent777> courtjesterg_, it came with ubuntu, most likely
[08:26] <mrpockets> hey guys, how do I make the different partitions on my HDDs NOT show up as icons on the desktop?
[08:26] <courtjesterg_> i use kubuntu
[08:26] <RUMMY> sound is such es drrrrrr
[08:27] <Gnea> RUMMY: i don't know, but the preferences->sound tab allows you to adjust things
[08:27] <courtjesterg_> and have kubuntu konversation
[08:27] <Surlent777> courtjesterg_, beats me then. I just upgraded last week and had all sorts of weird stuff happen
[08:27] <RUMMY> yes. and when I click test I hear sound
[08:27] <Flashtek> mrpockets: which desktop ?
[08:27] <matthew_> courtjesterg_, sudo apt-get install xchat maybe
[08:27] <Surlent777> courtjesterg_: including having new programs for some reason, while others disappeared
[08:27] <RUMMY> but then that sound don't stops
[08:27] <mrpockets> Flashtek, brand new 8.07 install
[08:27] <Gnea> even when you turn the volume down?
[08:27] <AbortD> haha damnit my comp keeps beeping
[08:27] <Flashtek> mrpockets: Gnome of KDE or what ?
[08:27] <mrpockets> Gnome
[08:28] <AbortD> ever since i replaced the power suppliest i hear beeps
[08:29] <AbortD> supply
[08:29] <Flashtek> AbortD: get a replacement PSU
[08:29] <Gnea> AbortD: did you build the system yourself or was it prefab?
[08:29] <eydaimon> anyway to start up gnome-terminal without borders?
[08:30] <AbortD> prefab
[08:30] <Surlent777> Before I upgraded from 8.04.1 to 8.10, I had both KDE 3, and KDE 4. Then, I had neither, and most of the applications from KDE disappeared. (I use GNOME primarily, but keep other DE's around for kicks) Annoyed, I redownloaded the KDE stuff via Synaptic, and now in KDE the System Settings bit in the menu doesn't work, and neither does Konqueror.    I got a killer deal there once from some little company
[08:32] <bazhang> !language
[08:32] <AbortD> here is the thing
[08:33] <AbortD> my comp only beeps when i perform certain actions though
[08:33] <Flashtek> AbortD: is the PSU 'special' ?
[08:33] <Gnea> such as?
[08:33] <chuckmoney> I just want to say I had no idea this channel was this much more...lively...at 2AM.
[08:33] <Flashtek> Sun Nov 16 08:33:48 GMT 2008
[08:33] <Flashtek> it's not 2am thats why
[08:33] <AbortD> when i loaded irc and the the status window loaded stuff in it
[08:33] <Gnea> chuckmoney: we're international.
[08:34] <AbortD> or when i hold a key down and there is nothing to enter in
[08:34] <kindofabuzz> WTB apache guru =)
[08:34] <Gnea> kindofabuzz: didn't you get banned from #apache?
[08:34] <chuckmoney> It's 2:34AM central...and yeah, I figured that.  After the last 8 years we Americans have had most of us don't have any sense of humor any more.
[08:34] <kindofabuzz> Gnea, lol yeah
[08:34] <Flashtek> AbortD: so, these beeps might acutally be right..
[08:35] <AbortD> what do you mean right?
[08:35] <AbortD> it never made beeps before
[08:35] <AbortD> when i loaded irc
[08:35] <AbortD> only when i held keys
[08:35] <Flashtek> AbortD: well, system beeps will occour if you try to type in data when there is nowhere to type in to..
[08:35] <chuckmoney> AbortD: X-Chat beeps when someone puts your name in a message, so maybe that's it.
[08:35] <Gnea> kindofabuzz: k... so you say you're willing to pay for help?
[08:35] <Flashtek> AbortD: they will also occour if things such as irc have been configured to beep at specific events..
[08:35] <AbortD> nah im on mIRC booted into a windows partition
[08:36] <kindofabuzz> Gnea, no, that was just a ploy for help. i can give you a ber if you're local =)
[08:36] <Flashtek> !language
[08:36] <Surlent777> anyone have any suggestions on my (admitedly somewhat trivial) KDE issues?
[08:36] <kindofabuzz> beer*
[08:36] <chuckmoney> AbortD: well...no clue then.  IIRC, mIRC simply highlights the message, and doesn't make sound.
[08:36] <Flashtek> Surlent777: problem ?
[08:36] <AbortD> why do people keep saying language
[08:36] <matthew_> lol @ ploy for help
[08:36] <Surlent777> Before I upgraded from 8.04.1 to 8.10, I had both KDE 3, and KDE 4. Then, I had neither, and most of the applications from KDE disappeared. (I use GNOME primarily, but keep other DE's around for kicks) Annoyed, I redownloaded the KDE stuff via Synaptic, and now in KDE the System Settings bit in the menu doesn't work, and neither does Konqueror. What can I do to fix these things?
[08:36] <AbortD> brb reboot
[08:37] <Surlent777> I should mention that systemsettings in the Alt-F2 box works fine
[08:37] <Gnea> kindofabuzz: i suggest you get yourself unbanned :)
[08:37] <Jordan_U> Surlent777: Do you want the entire kubuntu desktop?
[08:37] <chuckmoney> Flashtek: please, please tell me I missed something and you didn't call language just because of the misspelled word "beer" ?
[08:37] <Flashtek> Surlent777: does konqueror work via the run command
[08:37] <Surlent777> Jordan_U, no
[08:37] <kindofabuzz> Gnea, oh i doubth that will happen. i think i cussed an Op.
[08:37] <Surlent777> Jordan_U, it doesn't
[08:37] <Flashtek> chuckmoney: the !language was for the use of the word "Windows"
[08:37] <webPragmatist> hi, I have an 8800 GTS and for whatever reason I can't boot using nvidia 177 drivers
[08:37] <Surlent777> hahaha
[08:38] <Gnea> kindofabuzz: well, you're not going to find any help on apache in here
[08:38] <chuckmoney> Flashtek: then I agree :)
[08:38] <Jordan_U> Surlent777: What doesn't do what?
[08:38] <kindofabuzz> Gnea, so you were going to help if i payed? that's just wrong man
[08:38] <Flashtek> webPragmatist: use a different driver then ?
[08:38] <Gnea> kindofabuzz: you should've been more respectful.
[08:38] <Surlent777> Jordan_U, Konqueror doesn't work via Run, or via the K Menu
[08:38] <webPragmatist> Flashtek: I have tried 173 too...
[08:38] <Gnea> kindofabuzz: it is?
[08:38] <Flashtek> webPragmatist: does that work ?
[08:38] <webPragmatist> no
[08:38] <Jordan_U> Surlent777: Wrong nick :)
[08:38] <kindofabuzz> Gnea, Thumbs shoud have been more respectful
[08:38] <Surlent777> ?
[08:38] <Surlent777> oh
[08:39] <Surlent777> whoops
[08:39] <Flashtek> brb.. need a shirt on..
[08:39] <Flashtek> webPragmatist: are you getting errors ?
[08:39] <webPragmatist> ya let me post the report
[08:39] <Gnea> kindofabuzz: clearly, you were wrong. now, you will have to wait. we support ubuntu in here, we are not #apache.
[08:39] <kindofabuzz> Gnea, i know that, so quit talking about it.
[08:40] <Mama_Luigi> woot
[08:40] <Mama_Luigi> http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9HmAyO_ZwU8
[08:41] <webPragmatist> Flashtek: I have this failsafeX-backup tar
[08:42] <webPragmatist> http://pastebin.ca/1257503
[08:42] <webPragmatist> those are the pastes of the three files
[08:43] <webPragmatist> i'll brb I guess I am trying 93 too
[08:43] <Flashtek> looks like a borked config to me..
[08:44] <Che1> 绝对新手提问：UNUNTU8.04 不能自动挂载U盘了
[08:45] <Surlent777> Flashtek, to answer the (far) above question, Konqueror doesn't work via Run, or via the K Menu. It's just dead in the water, and System Settings in the K Menu doesn't work, even though it does via the Run box.
[08:45] <Surlent777> just minor annoyances, really, but I'm on a fixing spree and these are needing to be fixed
[08:46] <Surlent777> I've already tackled the five minute shutdown deal, restoring most of KDE, and getting Flash functionality back
[08:46] <devslashnull> i have an hfs+ formatted usb drive when i plug it into ubuntu and right click a folder and choose properties i get an error some content unreadable. i can read everything just fine on my mac. any idea what causes this  ?
[08:46] <Flashtek> Surlent777: does sound a little borked.. when you reloaded KDE did it fully reconfigure its self ?
[08:46] <red_> hello everyone
[08:47] <red_> i seriously need help for my ubuntu gutsy
[08:47] <Flashtek> red_: 'ello
[08:47] <Flashtek> devslashnull: the hfs+ ?
[08:47] <red_> hello Flashtek
[08:47] <devslashnull> yes
[08:47] <chuckmoney> devslashnull: You may need to install an automount daemon.  Otherwise, you may need to try mounting it in a terminal manually using sudo.
[08:47] <Surlent777> Flashtek: Not really sure. Some config files must have been leftover after the upgrade mass-murdered KDE 3 and 4...
[08:47] <devslashnull> chuckmoney, i did mount it manually
[08:47] <chuckmoney> devslashnull: as root?
[08:47] <red_> ok, i need serious help about my mouse icon
[08:47] <red_> or about my mouse HOVER
[08:47] <UnknownUser56> I think I downloaded the wrong iso
[08:47] <devslashnull> chuckmoney, no using sudo mount ....
[08:48] <jim_p> has anyone ever used wifiradar? i cant wait to ditch wicd as well :P
[08:48] <AbortD> its about UO time :D
[08:48] <chuckmoney> devslashnull: same thing.  ok...well...did you manually provide a filesystem type, i.e. sudo mount -t hfs /dev/sd...
[08:48] <devslashnull> no
[08:48] <devslashnull> it autodetects so theres no need
[08:48] <devslashnull> it mounts fine
[08:48] <red_> everytime i HOVER into things in ubuntu using my mouse pointer, it displays only a black box
[08:48] <red_> no text is displayed
[08:49] <chuckmoney> devslashnull: note that Ubuntu doesn't understand hfs+ (not linux at all) but only hfs.  the only difference is journaling and that can be ignored.
[08:49] <red_> does anyone know how to fix this?
[08:49] <devslashnull> chuckmoney, i know that
[08:49] <red_> everytime i HOVER into things in ubuntu using my mouse pointer, it displays only a black box
[08:49] <red_>  no text is displayed
[08:49] <Surlent777> red_: Are you using a custom theme?
[08:50] <UnknownUser56> http://i412.photobucket.com/albums/pp205/None_0x04/scr.jpg is what the extracted files are ,I assume I downloaded the wrong iso because there's an exe file
[08:50] <chuckmoney> devslashnull: well...if you give it the filesystem type along with the mount command, see if you can open it then.  if that fails, you may want to install...hmm...maybe hfsprogs or such
[08:50] <red_> yes, i think
[08:50] <red_> yes Surlent777
[08:50] <devslashnull> chuckmoney, again i can access the file system just fine
[08:50] <red_> with compiz enabled. or desktop effects enabled Surlent777
[08:50] <webPragmatist> Flashtek: any ideas why the nvidia drivers aren't working?
[08:50] <Flashtek> webPragmatist: sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg
[08:50] <chuckmoney> devslashnull: so what's your issue?  you can open the drive but just can't get the properties dialog to work?
[08:51] <Surlent777> red_: I don't remember if themes can affect the colors of the hintbox, but look in Appearance, and look at the colors of your theme
[08:51] <devslashnull> chuckmoney, no
[08:51] <webPragmatist> Flashtek: ok
[08:51] <red_> @ Surlent777 oh, wait. i'll check it out.
[08:51] <webPragmatist> Flashtek: and then?
[08:51] <devslashnull> chuckmoney, i already know the size of the folders on my drive which i wrote down in osx. in ubuntu when i choose properties, the file size of each folder is smaller and it says "some contents unreadable"
[08:51] <Flashtek> webPragmatist: restart X..
[08:51] <rivig> hi.. i've got tv out working and can move my mouse to the tv.. but when i try to move a window to the tv it only switches the virtual screen to the one on the right.. am i missing something?
[08:52] <red_> @ Surlent777 its working definitely fine now!
[08:52] <webPragmatist> Flashtek: is that using 177 or should i have activated that again somehow
[08:52] <red_> thanks alot Surlent777!
[08:52] <Gnea> rivig: are you trying to drag it or send it via right-click?
[08:52] <Surlent777> red_ no problem, heh
[08:52] <rivig> drag
[08:52] <AbortD> Gnea my comp beaps when system messages show up
[08:52] <red_> @ Surlent777 you call it hintbox right? I had no idea custom colors affected the hintbox
[08:52] <Gnea> rivig: that only seems to work right in enlightenment... try right-clicking and then send to desktop #
[08:53] <webPragmatist> Flashtek: sorry i have never configured x before... only a shell gui
[08:53] <red_> if i can't change the colors, how am i suppose to get my own colors?
[08:53] <Surlent777> AbortD: Isn't that supposed to happen? The system beep event or something?
[08:53] <chuckmoney> devslashnull: well that's a far cry from what you said earlier.  either way, it sounds like maybe you need to drop to a terminal and run a chown on those files, but that may make them unreadable under OSX.  Did multiple users on your mac system save the files?  also, did you maybe pull out the drive without waiting on the ejectprocess on the OSX box to finish?
[08:53] <Gnea> AbortD: weird. what happens if you type this in a terminal:  xset b off
[08:53] <Surlent777> red_: I guess try experimenting. Just be careful of whichever box affected that hintbox thing...
[08:54] <red_> alright. thanks again! i owe you that much!
[08:54] <AbortD> im on windows Gnea :P
[08:54] <Flashtek> webPragmatist: it reconfigures the xorg config file.. the nvidia drivers are called from there..
[08:54] <Surlent777> red_ There are a ton of custom themes done, so it's possible. Look around on gnome-look.org for ideas, I guess.
[08:54] <devslashnull> chuckmoney, ive been saying the same thing the entire time. i dont want to chown cause the os is mounted as read only. i only have one user in os x. i didnt eject it early. i always safely eject
[08:54] <Gnea> AbortD: that doesn't really help the situation now does it :P
[08:54] <AbortD> haha no
[08:55] <Gnea> :)
[08:55] <AbortD> i dont really get beeps when im on ubuntu
[08:55] <rivig> gnea: the menu only shows 4 entries for the tft
[08:55] <Gnea> rivig: what about if you try and show it on all desktops? does it display on the tv then?
[08:55] <chuckmoney> devslashnull: well this is easy to fix.  go to a terminal and unmount it.  then, when you run the mount command, do this: mount -t hfs -o uid=1000,gid=1000 /dev/sd...
[08:56] <devslashnull> chuckmoney, i did that when i mounted it
[08:56] <devslashnull> chuckmoney, but when i mount, it is read only since hfs+ is only supported as read only
[08:56] <rivig> gnea: no.. only on the tft.. strange
[08:57] <chuckmoney> devslashnull: 1 sec, let me see what I can find on this.  we have a Mac Mini here at the office so I'll see if I can duplicate this.  (I live upstairs so the office is always available :) )
[08:57] <Gnea> rivig: what video card is it? nvidia or ati?
[08:57] <UnknownUser56> does you installation disk for ubunto 8.10 i386 identical to this
[08:57] <UnknownUser56> http://s412.photobucket.com/albums/pp205/None_0x04/?action=view&current=scr.jpg
[08:57] <rivig> gnea: nvidia closed source
[08:58] <Gnea> rivig: okay... are you trying to do the twinview thing with xinerama?
[08:58] <UnknownUser56> On a public pc ,try forgetting the link before the one I just posted
[08:58] <Gnea> UnknownUser56: everything in here is logged. permanently.
[08:58] <rivig> gnea: no.. i configured everything in xorg.conf and wanted to move a vlc window to the tv screen
[08:59] <UnknownUser56> yea I know,I deleted that image nyways :)
[08:59] <Gnea> rivig: should be able to...
[08:59] <UnknownUser56> I'm just curious as I think I downloaded the wrong iso
[08:59] <faryshta> two questions. Have someone try the beta of XFCE 4.6 and someone could install frostwire with OpenJDK?
[08:59] <Gnea> !wubi | UnknownUser56
[09:00] <Surlent777> meh, Wubi has given me nothing but trouble
[09:00] <Gnea> UnknownUser56: wubi is a new addition to the 8.10 disks, it's perfectly normal
[09:00] <Gnea> Surlent777: you're the first i've heard of any complaints.
[09:00] <MegaJim> UnknownUser56 check the iso file against its md5 from the release page
[09:00] <Surlent777> Gnea: Really? I've tried using it twice now, and both times were really messy and it didn't install properly
[09:01] <Gnea> Surlent777: works fine here, each and everytime.
[09:01] <UnknownUser56> will do
[09:02] <Surlent777> Gnea: Madness. I tried it when it first came out; maybe it's better now
[09:02] <Gnea> Surlent777: last time i installed it was less than 1 month ago.
[09:02] <overlord_tm> can someone help me with vpn? Im trying to connect to network in my job via pptp vpn. I have set up everything and it connects without errors, but then internet stop working and i cant ping anything in remote network. DNS also stop working. Is important to have different networks (eg. 192.168.1.* and 192.168.2.*) even if im connecting client-network?
[09:04] <Surlent777> Also, I am fairly certain that Synatpic's "reinstall package" option is entirely useless, as it doesn't seem to fix my Konqueror issues...
[09:04] <texta> Hey guy's.
[09:04] <texta> Has anyone gotten a Raid0 stripe working?
[09:05] <daf_> anyone know where the shutdown windows icons/xml are located?
[09:05] <petenix> my GMA 3100 card is not working on ubuntu
[09:05] <faryshta> !psychosynth
[09:05] <petenix> glxgears segfaults and I get ...
[09:05] <UnknownUser56> hmm .. I think I figured it out
[09:05] <petenix> Xlib:  extension "GLX" missing on display ":0.0".
[09:06] <petenix> sorry
[09:06] <petenix> glxinfo segfaults
[09:06] <UnknownUser56> brb booting from ubuntu :D
[09:06] <petenix> glxgears exits cleanly but gives errors
[09:06] <texta> anyone played around with dmraid?
[09:06] <Surlent777> ......ok what. What is this madness? Running "konqueror" in a command line or the box opens up konqueror, but clicking the Konqueror icon in the Run box gives me a message saying KDEInit could not launch /usr/lib/kde4/bin/kfmclient
[09:07] <chuckmoney> devslashnull: ok, try installing these packages: hfsplus hfsutils hfsprogs and then mount the drive again.  At this point, short of chowning the files, there is no other answer to fix this.  According to both the man page and my own test here, HFS support is read-write but is just like ntfs, i.e. unless you give the "rw" option at mount, it will mount read only by default
[09:07] <Surlent777> Do I have two different versions floating around?
[09:07] <chuckmoney> devslashnull: if that fails, then...good luck.  maybe someone else who has spent a lot more time on a Mac can help you.
[09:08] <webPragmatist> Flashtek: ok so .... that pretty much put me back at defaults?
[09:09] <Iron_Blood> Hey people. I can send mail out to the world (hotmail yahoo etc...) but my mail server cant recive mail.
[09:09] <jim_p> Iron_Blood: port forwarding?
[09:10] <Iron_Blood> jim_p: Doh! Let me test that. :p
[09:10] <Surlent777> Running "konqueror" in a command line or the box opens up konqueror, but clicking the Konqueror icon in the Run box gives me a message saying KDEInit could not launch /usr/lib/kde4/bin/kfmclient
[09:10] <chuckmoney> Iron_Blood: Assuming you mean you're running a server, then yep, check port forwarding on your router, and also check to be sure you have a DNS record specifying that your mail server should handle mail for your domain.
[09:11] <relik> Hello, i installed Ubuntu today, and installed truecrypt. When creating or mounting an encrypted drive i get this error message: device-mapper: reload ioctl failed: Invalid argument. In kern.log i see this error message:  device-mapper: ioctl: error adding target to table. This seems to be a bug in device-mapper but i don;t see any solution. But in debian, with a similar kernel it works without problems. Any solutions here?
[09:11] <chuckmoney> Iron_Blood: you also may want to be sure you have poirt 25 for outgoing forwarded.  Else, other users outside your network won't be able to send OR recieve mail.
[09:11] <ntndo> simple question, I keep forgetting where the fonts folder is.
[09:13] <chuckmoney> ntndo: maybe /usr/share/fonts ?
[09:13] <ntndo> thank you
[09:13] <chuckmoney> ntndo: as a general rule any kind of shared resource - icons, wallpaper, fonts, etc - is somewhere under /usr/share
[09:13] <ntndo> ah okay, thanks :D
[09:14] <mnemoc> hi, how can one resume a do-release-upgrade if got networkless with the crash?
[09:14] <luddite> hey - i cant "sudo modprobe p4_clockmod" it returns this error: http://paste.ubuntu.com/71675/
[09:14] <ntndo> also, does Ubuntu support .otf fonts?
[09:15] <bcarm17> hello
[09:16] <Surlent777> hi
[09:16] <bcarm17> does anyone noe a good linux distro for a PIII 733
[09:16] <chuckmoney> ntndo: not sure.  Font support is usually per-program.  I.e. OpenOffice might but GIMP may not.  As for the window manager, GNOME, I don't know if it does or not, but if you go to System > Preferences > Appearance you can attempt to set it to a .otf font there.
[09:17] <chuckmoney> bcarm17: nothing personal, but you're asking us to reccomend a distro...in #ubuntu.  Kinda a biased crowd here. ;)
[09:17] <bcarm17> i noe
[09:17] <bcarm17> a ubuntu distro
[09:17] <chuckmoney> bcarm17: that said, I have an ASUS EEE 701 and it runs fine with stock Ubuntu 8.04 (aside from wireless driver issues) and it's a 651MHz Celeron
[09:18] <Iron_Blood> I want port 143 and... (Can`t remember)
[09:18] <luddite> for a p3 id actually put on a tiny xp sp3
[09:18] <luddite> old hardware would be supported completely
[09:18] <Iron_Blood> what ports are the right ones for SMTP
[09:18] <bcarm17> that said also i only have 256MB of 133MHz ram
[09:18] <Surlent777> Running "konqueror" in a command line or the box opens up konqueror, but clicking the Konqueror icon in the Run box gives me a message saying KDEInit could not launch /usr/lib/kde4/bin/kfmclient
[09:18] <chuckmoney> If you want it to run a little faster, try XUbuntu.  Generally, XUbuntu runs faster on slower systems.  KUbuntu runs about the same as Ubuntu.  For obvious reasons, MYthUbuntu will run slower but works better for a media center.
[09:18] <bcarm17> the eee pc run ddr
[09:19] <mrpockets> so i just installed 8.04 on a Dell
[09:19] <Iron_Blood> port 25?
[09:19] <chuckmoney> Iron_Blood: 25 is for SMTP, 110 for POP3, 143 for IMAP, all assuming you're not using SSL
[09:19] <mrpockets> and I don't seem to fidn any packages in the package manager that i can in othe rUbuntu package managors
[09:19] <luddite> Xubuntu is just the kde isnt it.
[09:19] <mrpockets> like Avant window manager,  or Compizconfig settings manager
[09:20] <Surlent777> pockets: did you hit the Refresh button? DId you go into the options and turn on all the repositories?
[09:20] <chuckmoney> bcarm17: it's your choice, but as I said, try XUbuntu, it will be slightly faster.  Any should run fine so long as you're not trying to run 50 things at once.
[09:20] <Iron_Blood> chuckmoney: ty. I forgot to forward them. *feels stupid*
[09:20] <_hase> Hi I just converted a bin and cue file to an iso file but I got two isos do I write the big one or the little one to the disk
[09:20] <bcarm17> thanx
[09:21] <CW> anybody using kvm in a crontab in Hardy?
[09:21] <chuckmoney> _hase: the big one
[09:21] <Surlent777> mrpockets: did you hit the Refresh button? DId you go into the options and turn on all the repositories?
[09:21] <mrpockets> yeah
[09:21] <matitaccia> hello.
[09:21] <mrpockets> just did
[09:21] <mrpockets> fixed it
[09:21] <_hase> thanks chuckmonkey!
[09:21] <Surlent777> mrpockets: k then
[09:23] <chuckmoney> dagnabbit, it's chuckmoney, not chuckmonkey.  Chuck Money, as in cash.  seriously people.    Read, people, read!
[09:23] <^Onix|DJ^> nick Sub|Zero^
[09:23] <Surlent777> ok, I give up on this K Menu junk. It's time for sleep before I start tasting colours
[09:23] <chuckmoney> (Nothing against _hase, many people make that mistake)
[09:24] <jim_p> has anyone ever used wifiradar? i cant wait to ditch wicd as well :P
[09:24] <matitaccia> hi chukmonkey.
[09:24] <matitaccia> :D
[09:24] <chuckmoney> very funnt matitaccia
[09:24] <chuckmoney> er...funny.  now just watch the clowns come out in the room and muck me for that typo...
[09:25] <chuckmoney> jim_p: yes.  Wifi-Radar works really well, though to me, the default gnome network-manager works fine.
[09:25] <matitaccia> lol... Hope not! I do myself a lot of mistakes...
[09:25] <matitaccia> chuckmoney, installing ubuntu for the very first time.
[09:26] <matitaccia> chuckmoney, ... I'm a linux virgin.
[09:26] <chuckmoney> matitaccia: glad to hear it.  any technical issues you need help with?
[09:26] <Delaya> touched for the very first time?
[09:26] <matitaccia> chuckmoney, not yet...
[09:26] <matitaccia> chuckmoney, ... can I count on you if I should need help?
[09:26] <jim_p> chuckmoney: as you may have noticed, i am allergic to network manager. even more allergic than what i am to kde :P
[09:27] <chuckmoney> (I was going to say "We'll make you a linux slot in no time but this is supposed to be a family friendly channel so try to keep the sexual references to a minimum matitaccia)
[09:27] <texta> Can someone help me with this problem? http://pastebin.com/m5c3972e9
[09:27] <matitaccia> chuckmoney, lol.
[09:28] <mrpockets> alright
[09:28] <mrpockets> next one
[09:28] <mrpockets> Compiz doesnt seem to be runnign on this Dell laptop with its fresh install
[09:28] <chuckmoney> I think my "o" and "u" key must be transposed.  If I have a friend in here playing a prank on me I'm gonna be really mad.  This is a $149 keyboard...
[09:29] <JaphMalik> chuckmoney: whoops >_>
[09:30] <matitaccia> Wow... I'm using the live-cd function right now. When I saw the background picture, I said wow. Not bad!
[09:30] <chuckmoney> JaphMalik: not you.  when you leave a room full of computer hardware there is a trail of destruction in your wake, as evidenced by the 4 unbootable cases on my floor...
[09:30] <JaphMalik> JaphMalik: I never said when I'd have it ready!
[09:30] <alexander> I need help with SWIG, which works under ubuntu 7.04, and partially doesn't work with ubuntu 8.10.
[09:30] <alexander> For example, wrapping an interface including "#include <climits>" give the error "test.h:3:22: error: climits: No such file or directory" in 8.10, while in 7.04 climits is found in the standard header directories.
[09:30] <alexander> Of course I can fix this with a -I flag to SWIG, but there are more subtle problems indicating that SWIG uses different compiler settings than g++ in 8.10, although it worked in 7.04 without changes.
[09:31] <alexander> last sentence should have been:
[09:31] <chuckmoney> matitaccia: I believe Ubuntu actually commissioned an artist to do the Heron wallpaper...though maybe the artist just donated the art.  The big draw about linux has always been that anyone can contribute their time and effort to make it better.  The wallpaper shows you don't have to be able to code to contribute :)
[09:31] <alexander> Of course I can fix this with a -I flag to SWIG, but there are more subtle problems indicating that SWIG uses different compiler settings than g++ in 8.10, although it worked in 7.04 without changes.
[09:33] <matitaccia> chuckmoney, yeah! That's good... what should I do now: I wanted to see if there could be any compatibility problems. I have seen that there is this "Hardware testing" feat, should I try that?
[09:33] <chuckmoney> matitaccia: sure.  The main thing you'll find with linux is that Linux can open almost any file windows can, but almost always using a different program to do it.
[09:33] <|Qvist|> Hello. When ubuntu has started I have to enter a "Key ring" passowrd. Where is the settings for automatic login, so I don't havce to enter the password every time I start ubuntu?
[09:34] <chuckmoney> matitaccia: for example, you can open microsoft word documents (and save them) but you'll have to use OpenOffice to do it.
[09:34] <chuckmoney> |Qvist|: maybe it's under System>Administration>Authorizations
[09:37] <jock> Is there a graphical tool for hardware management?
[09:37] <petenix> what driver do I need to get 3d acceleration for gma 3100 cards?
[09:37] <jock> like, a list of what it thinks is connected
[09:37] <jock> and what has drives associated with it
[09:37] <chuckmoney> |Qvist|: please let me know if it's not there.  Personally, I don't use the GNOME Keyring so I'm kinda wild guessing that one.
[09:38] <|Qvist|> I can't find it chuckmoney, but I might have missed it
[09:38] <NicEXE> How can I prevent the system not to shutdown if there is a Virtual Box running?
[09:38] <chuckmoney> jock: not that I'm aware of.  There is a panel in KDE Settings for that though.
[09:38] <jock> errr
[09:38] <jock> so how do i go about easily seeing what hardware is around?
[09:38] <NicEXE> *prevent the system from shutdown*
[09:38] <chuckmoney> jock: best bet is just to use lspci because that will list the vast majority of it.
[09:38] <jock> k k
[09:39] <jock> er
[09:39] <jock> chuckmoney: that's not installed by default?
[09:40] <NicEXE> How can I prevent the system from shutting down if there is a Virtual Box running?
[09:40] <chuckmoney> hmm...it is on mine.  you can run apt-get install lspci to get it if you don't have it
[09:40] <jock> i can't
[09:40] <jock> my issue with wifi
[09:40] <Nick2> Any news on when nvidia legacy drivers will be supported in 8.10?
[09:40] <jock> and i'm just trying to start from the begining to see what is even connected
[09:41] <chuckmoney> Nick2: Nope, but I believe you can use EnvyNG on 8.10.  I run 0.04 on everything so I'm not certain.
[09:41] <chuckmoney> er...8.04
[09:42] <Nick2> hm, ill have to check that out
[09:42] <chuckmoney> jock: well...lspci should be installed and if it's not you can get the package from http://packages.ubuntu.com and then transfer it via a flash drive.
[09:43] <jock> ispci is just a program i run from the shell, right?
[09:43] <jock> i'm not overlooking some obvious button to click on or anything i hope
[09:43] <MegaJim> first letter is a lower case L
[09:43] <MegaJim> not I
[09:43] <jock> yah
[09:43] <Melik> does anyone here own a logitech quickcam?
[09:43] <jock> hmm
[09:43] <jock> thanks
[09:44] <histo> !envyng | Nick2
[09:44] <NicEXE> How can I prevent the system from shutting down if there is a Virtual Box running?
[09:44] <petenix> alright, I have X set to use the "intel" driver
[09:45] <Nick2> ok
[09:45] <Nick2> thanks
[09:45] <petenix> but it still dies when trying to use Glx
[09:47] <JOeSaVy> hello
[09:48] <JOeSaVy> have a question
[09:48] <Azureus> Hey. What font should  i use with mozile firefox ..the default one is very small and hard to read
[09:48] <JOeSaVy> should i install ati catalyst drivers a virtual mounted ubuntu?
[09:48] <Azureus> and how can i change it? :S
[09:50] <histo> JOeSaVy: what doyou mean by virtual mounted?
[09:50] <Axz> Hi all
[09:50] <Axz> where to find tutorial to install Flash on my 64bit Ubuntu 8.10
[09:50] <JOeSaVy> i mean virtual drive, sorry
[09:51] <JaphMalik> Azureus: in Firefox: Edit > Preferences then click on the Content tab
[09:51] <fosco_> Axz: no tutorial needed, sudo apt-get install flashplugin-nonfree
[09:51] <JOeSaVy> my core OS i Vista Home Premium, and i installed ubuntu using virtual box
[09:51] <JOeSaVy> wanted to learn more about it
[09:51] <chuckmoney> Azureus: there's actually a way to change that in Firefox Preferences.  As for the choice of font, pick whichever looks good to you.  That's just a matter of personal preference.  Numbus Sans is a good choice for the "Times New Roman" look.
[09:52] <mojo> Nimbus?
[09:52] <JaphMalik> chuckmoney: Nimbus Roman No9 L
[09:52] <mojo> I like Deja Vu Sans too
[09:52] <histo> JOeSaVy: well your vbox machine doesn't have an ati card
[09:53] <Axz> wow how comes ubuntu has best channel support related to all other distro's ?
[09:53] <Axz> anyhow thanks fosco_
[09:53] <histo> JOeSaVy: the virtual box ubuntu machine is not using your native hardware like that. Its a "virtual" machine
[09:53] <mojo> maybe the philosophy of humanity to others tends to lead toward a newbie friendlyness, also the popularity though i think the community makes it welcoming and therefore popular
[09:54] <chuckmoney> mojo: Deja Vu is nice, looks more like Arial though.  I use the default...whatever that is...at 2880x900 resolution with soom set to "smaller" because I'm young and have good eyes :)
[09:54] <chuckmoney> er...zoom
[09:54] <mojo> lucky you said the old man behind the coke bottles
[09:55] <mojo> the zoom is awesome in compiz, use it all the time 'specially cuz we have three systems in the 'computer room' and i can show my roomies stuff easily
[09:55] <mysteryc> Hey
[09:56] <mojo> i am having a compiz problem of sorts: direct rendering: No (LIBGL_ALWAYS_INDIRECT set)
[09:56] <mojo> but i am not sure if that's the culprit: vlc and other players are slow at full screen...very much so so that i use the compiz zoom to make vids big.  same for youtube... slow when large
[09:56] <mysteryc> Ok, so I have ubuntu and windows on my computer both running on 2 different dicks. I downloaded the latest ubuntu yesterday from windows and now I wanna format my other hard disc by installing the latest ubuntu but how do I tell the installed that it needs to install at a specific hard dick?
[09:57] <mysteryc> *disc
[09:57] <mysteryc> *discs
[09:57] <mysteryc> omg, sorry for the mistake;p
[09:57] <mojo> mysteryc:  helluva typo lol
[09:57] <mysteryc> mojo: ;p
[09:57] <mysteryc> *installer
[09:58] <mysteryc> so many typos :/
[09:58] <fosco_> mysteryc: i can hardly understand, but the installer will let you choose whatever you want
[09:59] <mysteryc> fosco_: Oh, ok. :)
[09:59] <BaconHunter> Can anyone vouch for cedega or recommend a alternative for getting my steam games running?
[09:59] <BaconHunter> wine forces you to use dx8 which makes source games very ugly
[10:00] <mysteryc> BaconHunter: Even the latest version of Wine? I thought they updated it to dx9 :s
[10:00] <NicEXE> BaconHunter: check Crossover Games
[10:01] <BaconHunter> checked.
[10:01] <BaconHunter> latest wine is close
[10:01] <BaconHunter> but most source games don't load hud etc
[10:01] <histo> !ati > JOeSaVy
[10:01] <BaconHunter> crash
[10:03] <histo> !av > JOeSaVy
[10:05] <halfgenius> holla!
[10:05] <halfgenius> merci` .. eur fre ghas
[10:05] <chuckmoney> Not sure if anyone cares but in about 40 minutes I'll be going to get breakfast for an hour so anyone with a question they think I can answer should type fast :P
[10:05] <JaphMalik> BaconHunter: I had issues with cedega mainly because it didn't support games like CivIV and a few others. Other than that I'm sure it's fine. Just check out their database of supported games
[10:05] <JaphMalik> CivIV Silver Edition or something like that. Apparently there was too much of a difference from regular CivIV for cedega to support
[10:05] <halfgenius> merci` .. eur fre ghas

[10:06] <agamalama> anyone know a good video editor for ubuntu?

I set my screensaver to come on after 1 minute of inactivity and the screen is supposed to turn off after 2 minutes. Now all that happens is the screen fades to black after 1 minute and then instantly lights up again and stays lit from then on - the screen never turns off. How do I troubleshoot power
[10:16] <histo> kiru: run sudo aptitude clean

[10:24] <IAMDANIAM> mojo any reason why i dont have sound in youtube??
[10:24] <CorpseFeeder> ok.. I worked out that my problem is not with power management, but with the screensaver itself. every time the screen tries to fade to black before starting the screen saver, the screen suddenly lights up again before the screen saver can start. All the screen savers seem to work if I click preview but none seem to start if the computer is left idle for the specified time. What gives?

[10:48] <Symmetria> hrm, can someone here tell me what ip they resolve za.releases.ubuntu.com to?
[10:48] <Compu_Chip> Question: I have an Acer laptop with Realtek wireless card. I tried to get it to work on v 8.04 through ndiswrapper, but although it now recognizes the card, it does not connect.
[10:48] <Shoopuf> How would you guys go about installing Drupal 6 on Ubuntu Hardy LTS via command line? The repository version is a bit old.
[10:48] <histo> Symmetria: <IP_ADDRESS>
[10:49] <Compu_Chip> <IP_ADDRESS>
[10:49] <Symmetria> histo and you can browse to that just fine right?
[10:49] <DarkKnight> faryshta; so how do i install my drivers
[10:49] <Compu_Chip> Symmetria I can
[10:49] <Symmetria> I just modified the international dns anycast for it to put it behind a new system for access requests coming in from europe
[10:49] <Symmetria> ok, sweet
[10:49] <histo> Symmetria: yeap
[10:49] <Customer> Has anyone here used Wubi before?
[10:50] <histo> Symmetria: Yeah I can browse to it
[10:50] <hersto> faryshta: it was my first attempt to check "Source code" in the Repository dialog. But i still don't see where can i select a source package.
[10:50] <histo> !anyone | Customer
[10:50] <CorpseFeeder> has anyone with knowledge of fixing gnome-screensaver entered yet?
[10:50] <Symmetria> if you access that from europe/the US now, it will hit a reverse proxying squid installation so that european/us requests get cached and served outta europe, instead of it going back to .za every time, african requests will still go direct
[10:50] <faryshta> DarkKnight, what GPU you have?

[10:53] <elkbuntu> fosco_, please disable whatever script does that.
[10:53] <C0p3rn1c> on a fresh install
[10:53] <histo> XB23: or you can use top or a plethera of system monitoring apps
[10:53] <fosco_> elkbuntu: sorry, i still don't understand, am i doing something wrong?
[10:53] <C0p3rn1c> any idea why?
[10:53] <fosco_> ok
[10:53]  * BlueParrot tries a different mirror
[10:54] <elkbuntu> fosco_, this is wrong -> <fosco_> ACTION gives csabee a bag full with Michael Jacksons dropped noses
[10:54] <DarkKnight> faryshta; here comes a confusion...i have xfce login manager....wen i upgraded my system....i get XFCE desktop for my root account..b4 it had just the gdm....but my other user account has gdm
[10:54] <fosco_> ok, sorry
[10:54] <ljsoftnet> can i use gmail video and voice chat in ubuntu with firefox running in wine?
[10:54] <hersto> XB32, i use the command   ls -l /proc/kcore
[10:54]  * histo ignores all actions
[10:54] <elkbuntu> L-G, please disable the script too.
[10:54] <histo> ljsoftnet: why not just use it in nix?
[10:54] <XB23> ty
[10:54] <BlueParrot> histo, win only plugins at a guess
[10:55] <ljsoftnet> histo, what do you mean by nix?
[10:55] <XB23> -r-------- 1 root root 939528192 2008-11-16 04:45 /proc/kcore
[10:55] <XB23> hmm
[10:55] <XB23> 939528192kb is the ram?#
[10:55] <BlueParrot> ljsoftnet, he wonders why you are runing firefox in wine
[10:55] <histo> ljsoftnet: linux
[10:55] <lvsmthng> so in ubuntu i got 360 fps in glxgears and in mandriva kde its 435 fps. any explanations?
[10:55] <C0p3rn1c> lvsmthng: other drivers?
[10:55] <CorpseFeeder> histo: the screensaver fails to start. After the specified time, the screen fades to black then instantly lights up again and stays that way.
[10:55] <BlueParrot> ljsoftnet, I'm guessing you have some plugins that only work well on windows ? 64bit system ?
[10:55] <faryshta> DarkKnight, on xfce so just go menu->configuration->configuration manger
[10:55] <Myrtti> XB23: cat /proc/meminfo
[10:55] <DarkKnight> faryshta; i dont know y it happend lik that
[10:55] <histo> ljsoftnet: ahh nevermind they haven't released support for that yet.
[10:56] <king> hello
[10:56] <histo> ljsoftnet: coming soon though.
[10:56] <XB23> MemTotal:      2066496 kB
[10:56] <XB23> thats my ram?
[10:56] <faryshta> and on manager just go screen.
[10:56] <DarkKnight> farshyta; i m on my user account nd it has gdm
[10:56] <histo> ljsoftnet: but yes you can install windows firefox with wine.
[10:56] <LucasVieites> I even get compression errors when reloading repositories
[10:56] <histo> XB23: yeah looks like 2 gigs
[10:57] <XB23> yep thats right
[10:57] <ljsoftnet> histo, so would it be possible firefox in wine + install gmail video and chat
[10:57] <v4vijayakumar> hi, my external hard drive failed to auto-mount for the first time. I tried force mount (sudo mount -t ntfs-3g /dev/sdb1 /media/disk -o force) but it failed with error, ---$LogFile indicates unclean shutdown (0, 0) --- WARNING: Forced mount, reset $LogFile. --- fuse: failed to access mountpoint /media/disk: No such file or directory
[10:57] <XB23> bril cheers
[10:57] <C0p3rn1c> is it possible to install a non-linux usb printer in vmware?
[10:57] <Myrtti> XB23: no, that's your total memory including swap
[10:57] <XB23> ah
[10:57] <histo> ljsoftnet: I don't know try it and see. Its new so I doubt many people have tried it but you can check at appdb.winehq.org
[10:57] <XB23> im just trying to figure out how much ram ive got
[10:57] <XB23> 2 066 496 kilobits = 0.24634552 gigabytes
[10:57] <XB23> should be 2gb but im not sure
[10:57] <Myrtti> XB23: no hold on...
[10:57] <faryshta> ljsoftnet, so far I know, no it is not possible but Kopette supports audio and video for Gmail, yet that support still in beta.
[10:57] <lvsmthng> C0p3rn1c: in ubuntu its 2.4.1 and in mandriva its 2.4.2. so much difference cuz of that? (but in mandriva its probably older Xorg also. and real test should be made on 2.5.0 intel driver and 2.6.28 kernel)
[10:57] <mysticfrost123_> iam getting logged out suddenly after upgrading to 8.10
[10:58] <Myrtti> might actually be the physical.
[10:58] <Myrtti> yeah, it is
[10:58] <XB23> oh
[10:58] <mysticfrost123_> can anyone help
[10:58] <histo> bgueye: no it would be 2gigs
[10:58] <Myrtti> otherwise the numbers I'm getting wouldn't make sense
[10:58] <mysticfrost123_> iam getting logged out suddenly after upgrading to 8.10
[10:58] <histo> XB23: No your math is wrong it would be 2 gigs
[10:58] <XB23> i used google
[10:58] <C0p3rn1c> lvsmthng: so you did use the same graphics driver?
[10:58] <hersto> v4vijayakumuar: it looks you need to boot to windows, mount the drive there (windows does it automatically) and remove the drive cleanly.
[10:58] <XB23> 2066496kb to GB
[10:58] <faryshta> DarkKnight, on gnome I don't remember where it was but the screen resolution was somewhere around the system menu.
[10:59] <histo> XB23: not kb kilo BYTES
[10:59] <Myrtti> XB23: b is no B
[10:59] <XB23> oooh
[10:59] <lvsmthng> C0p3rn1c: i said already that drivers these distros useing
[10:59] <XB23> ah yeh thats right
[10:59] <XB23> now it works
[10:59] <XB23> 2gig
[10:59] <v4vijayakumar> hersto, I removed windows, now its only ubuntu.. :)
[10:59] <mysticfrost123_> iam getting logged out suddenly after upgrading to 8.10
[10:59] <Myrtti> mysticfrost123_: we heard you the first three times
[10:59] <DarkKnight> faryhsta; i m on gdm now.....

[11:00] <lvsmthng> anyone with intel graphics like 945GME or so, what your glxgears results?
[11:01] <DarkKnight> v4vijayakumar; r u frm india
[11:01] <v4vijayakumar> yes
[11:01] <histo> lvsmthng: glxgears is not a good tool for benchmarking
[11:01] <DarkKnight> v4vijayakumar; from AP???
[11:01] <v4vijayakumar> nope
[11:02] <lvsmthng> histo: you are right. but it is probaly maybe used in some situations
[11:02] <v4vijayakumar> but, I know telugu.. ;)
[11:02] <DarkKnight> v4vijayakumar; then frm wer?
[11:02] <lumm_> hi! ive just crypted my ubuntu useing dmcrypt + luks ( / and /home) it all worked properly but now after a reboot im getting... "cannot start kstartupconfig check your installation"... and... cannot enter HOME useing /.
[11:02] <st3ph> i got a prob with  system-tools-backends it seems i dont have it
[11:02] <lumm_> do i have to adjust the pass from my homedir in kde?
[11:02] <lumm_> since home is now /dev/mapper/home??
[11:02] <v4vijayakumar> I am from tamilnadu, now in mysore, karnataka
[11:03] <kanhiya78> what does this command do?  sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[11:03] <Myrtti> lumm_: /dev/mapper/home should be mounted to /home
[11:03] <lorenzosu> Hi, geetings to all.
[11:03] <lumm_> reconfiguring your x server
[11:03] <lvsmthng> histo: and glxgears one and only widely recognized benchmark in existance for linux :D
[11:03] <DIFH-iceroot> kanhiya78: reconfigure your xorg-settings
[11:03] <heyuxiang> kanhiya78: the name already told u what it is going to do
[11:04] <lumm_> trough fstab Myrtti?
[11:04] <Myrtti> /dev/mapper/home is only the crypted partition unlocked and ready to be mounted
[11:04] <lorenzosu> I upgraded to 8.10, which screwed up my ubuntu-studio stuff. Finally got it back to work by uninstalling (purge) all the ubuntu-studio stuff and re-installing. Trouble is that if I boot the linux-rt my WPA wireless network doesn't work :(. I works perfectly with the generic kernel.
[11:04] <Myrtti> lumm_: for example
[11:04] <DarkKnight> faryshta; u ther??
[11:04] <nedwell> What is the proper way to use Skype, Adobe Reader, Google Earth, etc. under Ubuntu 8.10 amd64 while still allowing other 64 bit apps to work as expected?  Do I just install ia32-libs or is it trickier than that?  Thanks!
[11:04] <kanhiya78> DIFH-iceroot: what to select there to configure your display resolution
[11:04] <mysticfrost123_> any ideas on the sudden logout after upgrading to 8.10
[11:04] <Compu_Chip> Maybe in the mean time someone has come in who can answer this question: I have an Acer laptop with Realtek wireless card. I tried to get it to work on v 8.04 through ndiswrapper, but although it now recognizes the card, it does not connect.
[11:05] <Myrtti> neo644: enable medibuntu and you can get atleast skype working without hassle
[11:05] <DIFH-iceroot> kanhiya78: edit xorg.cnf or the properties on your desktop/system-settings
[11:05] <kanhiya78> DIFH-iceroot: i mean to say my display resolution
[11:05] <Myrtti> !medibuntu | nedwell
[11:05] <st3ph> if i want install skype it says it failed cuz of  system-tools-backends
[11:05] <leejongwook> 1
[11:05] <sja> !init
[11:05] <nedwell> myrtti: Does that work for amd64?
[11:05] <DarkKnight> DIFH-iceroot; u told me abt xorg.conf....so wat do i do abt it
[11:06] <Myrtti> nedwell: has worked for me since Feb. probably longer for people who've run AMD64 longer ;-)
[11:06] <faryshta> DarkKnight, whats up?
[11:06] <sja> how i do cobfigure X from gui ?
[11:06] <CorpseFeeder> histo: forget it - the problem sorted itself up after I killed the gnome-screensaver process and restarted it. If the problem occurs again next time I reboot I'll look into it again.
[11:07] <CorpseFeeder> *itself out
[11:07] <DarkKnight> faryshta; now wat do i do after getting the screen resolution
