[03:27] <bruenig> |Porsche, it doesn't defeat the purpose, the purpose of the bot is not to have people throw stuff at it in the channel and spam up the channel

[03:27] <raintree> bruenig, ahh, brilliant
[03:28] <dang`r`us> jrib, sorry, tired already
[03:28] <b_e_n_z> |Porsche, shut the up
[03:28] <joe4444> oscurochu_: right-click a blank area of the panel and goto properties... you need to increase the size of the entire panel
[03:28] <MISTERTibbs> raintree, bcm43xx install file needs your email

[03:43] <[SMS] Gortok> So how does one navigate a gui in linux without a mouse?

[03:53] <Nutubuntu> Hello, I have a question about Sun's Java and the Athlon A64 X2. I keep hearing that the Athlon isn't supported, but I can't find anything about that in Google. Can someone clear this up for me?
[03:54] <den_santiago> does anyone knows of a guide to install lotus notes client on Ubuntu 6.06 LTS?
[03:54] <Pelo> den_santiago, is there a linux version ?
[03:54] <den_santiago> my mail server is a ibm lotus domino server
[03:55] <ethereality> is there a way to backup my song ratings from amarok?
[03:55] <den_santiago> pelo so far its still in beta?
[03:55] <`eric-> !beryl
[03:55] <ubotu> beryl is a window manager that takes advantage of an OpenGL accelerated X environment. Help in #ubuntu-effects
[03:55] <Flannel> Nutubuntu: there's no reason why athlon wouldn't be supported.  If anything, it'd be 64bit that wasn't supported.  But it is.
[03:55] <Pelo> den_santiago, I'd look for a lotus note channel
[03:55] <bobbob> hey im having a problem
[03:55] <bobbob> when i try to install ubuntu i get that the xserver fails
[03:55] <bobbob> i tried to configure it in the terminal
[03:55] <bobbob> but it didnt work
[03:56] <Pelo> bobbob,  do you get as far as the boot menu ?
[03:56] <bobbob> i get to the
[03:56] <den_santiago> pelo is it on the irc channer?
[03:56] <den_santiago> channel?
[03:56] <bobbob> like screen were it says start or install
[03:56] <bobbob> start in graphics safe
[03:56] <Pelo> den_santiago, I don't know of one ,  I'm suggesting you look for one
[03:56] <Nutubuntu> Flannel, t/y (yet again) ... with an A64 X2, should I be running Feisty for the 64? I've read that some apps (Firefox, for example) aren't available in 64bit versions. I'm feeling confused ...
[03:56] <Pelo> bobbob,  what's your video card ?
[03:56] <mrynit> does anyone know what SCIM is? wiil it allow me to use japanese characters on a keyboard?
[03:56] <bobbob> i have two... one is onboard and i think its broke so i have another .. and its a nvidia geforce fx 5200
[03:57] <lo4fer> Nutubuntu: i think the hangup for most people trying to use the 64 bit version is inability to use flash
[03:57] <bobbob> like on the error it says somehting about xserver fail .. it didnt install and
[03:57] <bobbob> no screens found
[03:57] <Pelo> bobbob,   if you only have access to the nvidia card you'll need to use the alternate install cd to install,  and then you can get the nvidia drivers
[03:57] <wastro> how do I verify that my mpd can play the internet stream?
[03:57] <Pelo> den_santiago,  I donT' take pravite msg , please talk to me in the channel
[03:57] <Nutubuntu> lo4fer, the 64bit ver of Firefox? or Feisty?
[03:57] <bobbob> wait so i do what
[03:58] <Pelo> bobbob,   if you only have access to the nvidia card you'll need to use the alternate install cd to install,  and then you can get the nvidia drivers
[03:58] <bobbob> what is the alternate install cd
[03:58] <Flannel> Nutubuntu: firefox?  That's hogwash.  *everything* is available for 64bit that can be.  The only things that aren't are closed source things that haven't been released for 64bit.  Flash is really one of the few that isn't available natively for 64bit (but you can get it working with a little massaging)
[03:58] <vzduch> !alternate
[03:58] <ubotu> The Alternate CD (available as of Dapper) is the classical text-mode installation CD. Use it if you wish to upgrade via CD, or for an "expert" mode install. For normal installs, use the Desktop CD, which is also a "Live" CD - See also !Minimal
[03:58] <Pelo> !alternate | bobbob
[03:58] <ubotu> bobbob: please see above
[03:58] <bobbob> is it hard?
[03:58] <bobbob> like
[03:58] <Nutubuntu> Flannel, sounds as if I should be running a 64bit version of the OS then?
[03:58] <thesource> no
[03:58] <bobbob> i tried to do the configure of xserver
[03:58] <bobbob> that was hard
[03:59] <thesource> i install in from live cd took like 5 min
[03:59] <bobbob> it was asking for the bus numbers of the graphics card
[03:59] <bobbob> and stuff
[03:59] <vzduch> it wasn't hard on Hoary, can'
[03:59] <vzduch> t have gotten harder, I guess :>
[03:59] <thesource> lol
[03:59] <Pelo> bobbob,  it's just a text based installer , not that hard , you won'T be able to configure xserver for the installation
[03:59] <bobbob> so were can i d/l the alternate cd
[03:59] <Nutubuntu> I'm not terribly concerned about Flash (and pretty confident I can get it working, as long as that's do-able)
[03:59] <thesource> live cd work good for me cose i dont know about ubuntu till i got it loadin
[03:59] <vzduch> bobbob: what you heard was perhaps the installer of Debian Woody
[03:59] <lo4fer> what's the syntax for sicing ubotu on somebody?

[04:00] <bobbob> sorry pelo
[04:00] <Nutubuntu> bobbob, I installed from the alt CD (the minimal CD to be accurate, which downloads packages from the 'net). It was fine, and not hard at all.
[04:00] <Flannel> bobbob: on the ubuntu download page/form/thing, there's a checkbox at the bottom to get the alt CD
[04:00] <Pelo> !download | bobbob
[04:01] <ubotu> bobbob: Ubuntu installation CDs can be downloaded from http://releases.ubuntu.com - Mirrors can be found at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/Archive

[04:07] <mrynit> is there a way to skip steps in the gui isntaller
[04:07] <Nutubuntu> Pelo, thanks. I don't feel one way or the other about Java, but I have some things that require it, so ...
[04:07] <Pelo> mrynit, which steps would you like to skip ?
[04:07] <thesource> mrynit: why would u want too
[04:07] <mrynit> migrate documents
[04:07] <Pelo> Nutubuntu,  I beleive you can have both
[04:08] <mrynit> cause its a bad harddrive and its scanning and freezeing
[04:08] <Nutubuntu> Pelo, t/y again. :)
[04:08] <schreck> Problem installing ubuntu... Trying to install and the PC hangs before getting to LiveCD...can anyone help?
[04:08] <MISTERTibbs> mrynit, hard drives r cheap to replace
[04:08] <magnethead> anybody know how I can add a 1280x1024 resolution in ubuntu so my 19" flatpanel will quit screaming at me that it's out of native resolution? im stuck at 1024x768
[04:08] <Pelo> mrynit,  don't you get the option to scan or not to scan ?
[04:08] <mrynit> is there a way i can install with out doing the gui thro live cd
[04:08] <Nutubuntu> mrynit, you can do the alternate install; it's text-based
[04:08] <mrynit> no it scanns first then asks me to import or not
[04:09] <vzduch> mrynit: the alternate CD
[04:09] <Paddy_EIRE> magnethead, you can add it by editing "/etc/X11/xorg.conf
[04:09] <Pelo> mrynit,  thre is the alternate install cd  it is a text based installer
[04:09] <mrynit> i have the regular cd
[04:09] <Pelo> mrynit,  you can download the alternate install cd,
[04:09] <magnethead> that's what i thought
[04:09] <mrynit> so i have to burn another cd?
[04:09] <taa> how to mount iso dvd ?
[04:09] <Paddy_EIRE> magnethead, gksudo gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[04:09] <Nutubuntu> mrynit, yeah
[04:09] <Pelo> mrynit, only if you want to skip the import thingy apparently
[04:10] <Pelo> !iso | taa
[04:10] <ubotu> taa: To mount an ISO disc image, type  sudo mount -o loop <ISO-filename> <mountpoint>  - There is a list of useful cd image conversion tools at http://wiki.linuxquestions.org/wiki/CD_Image_Conversion - Always verify the ISO using !MD5 before !burning.
[04:10] <magnethead> i have it in editor, but i've already editted it, saved it while logged as root user, restarted X, and restarted the whole computer

[04:10] <taa> Pelo mounting dvd iso is the same as cd ?
[04:11] <Pelo> taa,  should be
[04:11] <Paddy_EIRE> magnethead, you really should not use the root user account for things like that
[04:11] <magnethead> it wont let me save it otherwise
[04:11] <Pelo> magnethead, make sure you hve the proper syntax
[04:11] <magnethead> it marks it a read only file
[04:11] <Pelo> magnethead, sudo gedit ....
[04:11] <Paddy_EIRE> magnethead, gksudo gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[04:12] <Nutubuntu> magnethead, gksudo and sudo (sudo is only for text-based apps) give you temporary root rights, without becoming root.
[04:12] <Pelo> later
[04:12] <magnethead> gksudo gedit /etc/x11/xorg.conf
[04:12] <magnethead>  doesnt work
[04:13] <magnethead> Authentication Rejected, reason : None of the authentication protocols specified are supported and host-based authentication failed.
[04:13] <Paddy_EIRE> magnethead, exactly what are you doing with that command
[04:14] <twocarlo_> .
[04:14] <magnethead> i just entered it
[04:14] <Paddy_EIRE> magnethead, it should prompt you for a password then open the file for you

[04:14] <sldkfj> :{
[04:15] <sldkfj> :P even

[04:15] <Paddy_EIRE> magnethead, not for xorg.conf though
[04:16] <Flannel> magnethead: Use gksu instead of gksudo.  the gksu is parsing the path.  With that editor, you can also always just go file > open and open the file too.
[04:17] <magnethead> captializing the X makes it say opening file than goes blank
[04:18] <invisiblepinkuni> magnethead: after opening gedit with gksudo, use file > open like Flannel said to get to /etc/x11/Xorg.conf
[04:18] <magnethead> gksu does sane as what i said

[04:26] <jrib> dan40: different, though the first two are related

[04:28] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[04:28] <lo4fe1> jrib: great just like in linux. nice.
[04:28] <wols_> magnethead: don't edit xorg.conf unless you really know what you are doing. mv xorg.conf to .old and run dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg again
[04:28] <jrib> dan40: I like using btlaunchmanycurses, I just drop a .torrent file in the directory and it handles it.  But rtorrent is nice too.  Try them both .  Note these are all terminal based
[04:28] <magnethead> earlier today i ran dpgk-reconfigure xserver-xorg -phigh earlier today..before i did that i had a 1280 option..after i didnt
[04:29] <dan40> jrib: terminal based? Oh well I guess that would make them small
[04:29] <magnethead> it didnt have an nvidia opion so i chose nv
[04:29] <wols_> why did you run it -phigh?
[04:29] <magnethead> im not sure, i was told to
[04:29] <wols_> how did you install nvidia drivers?
[04:29] <magnethead> because i had to recover my xorg file since i hadnt backed it up pre-modification
[04:29] <devnull> hmm is it ok to use the drivers directly from ati?
[04:30] <wols_> if you are not sure: read docs about it. manpages. NEVER ever do something someone tells you on irc when you are not sure
[04:30] <magnethead> i didn't- i chose nv
[04:30] <magnethead> because it didnt list nvidia
[04:30] <jrib> dan40: gui, there's the gnome bittorrent client and deluge (not in repos) too that I know of
[04:30] <wols_> do you have nvidia installed?
[04:30] <devnull> as I have a persistant issue w/ my card that seems to only allow 8.33.6 drivers to work properly.
[04:30] <Stettin|work> can someone point me to a guide to connect to a windows server share from ubuntu? I can browse the list of domains/servers but when I try to browse a server I get "Sorry, couldn't display all the contents" I'm assuming I need to input my domain credentials somewhere
[04:30] <magnethead> no, im still on nv
[04:30] <HardDisk> evening, having a strange problem, realplayer firefox plugin decided to stop working, removed and reinstalled realplayer whenever I try to click on preferences it crashes.
[04:30] <wols_> devnull: what issue? what card?
[04:30] <Tom47> i am installing java.doc and receved a message saying it doesn't contain the documentation but to download it from elsewhere into /tm and make the file owned by root.root   now root i am familiar with but root.root?
[04:30] <magnethead> i ran the drivers manual to get nvidia but still didnt make a bit of difference
[04:30] <wols_> devnull: you can use them, but then ati needs to support you. not #ubuntu imho
[04:31] <wols_> magnethead: what "drivers manual"?
[04:31] <dan40> I can't find any of those you mentioned in the repos

[04:32] <HardDisk> realplayer firefox plugin decided to stop working, removed and reinstalled realplayer whenever I try to click on preferences it crashes.
[04:32] <bkingx> craigbass1976: right, can't get it to start
[04:32] <Tom47> what is root.root - how does it relate to root?

[04:32] <magnethead> wols- did you see what i typed?
[04:32] <MadEchidna> does anyone know how I can get that cool mousedriven bootscreen that Fedora uses on Ubuntu?

[04:32] <Stettin|work> craigbass: I don't see any contents at all.. i'll check in #samba
[04:32] <craigbass1976> bkingx, what's your error log say?
[04:33] <bkingx> craigbass1976: where is the error log?
[04:33] <jeffvr> WHen the i2o driver loads I get an error message  iop0: DMA / IO allocation for I2O controller failed
[04:33] <craigbass1976> Stettin|work, is norton running?
[04:33] <eyemean> hi i installed parallels on ubuntu, but cant find it anywhere
[04:33] <wols_> devnull: well you have to fix your problem with fglrx then. cause sooner or later a new X version will come out and then your 8.33.x drivers simply won't work... so either fix it or ati. your choice
[04:33] <Tom47> jrib in the context of installing java doc package ...
[04:33] <jrib> Tom47: owner: root, group: root
[04:33] <dan40> jrib: I am using Xubuntu...I wonder if they are not in the install
[04:33] <jrib> dan40: have you enabled universe?
[04:33] <Tom47> jrib ok ty
[04:33] <Stettin|work> craigbass: norton? i'm using ubuntu here, not sure what's running on the file server
[04:33] <dan40> nope ..don't know what that is...sorry
[04:34] <Flannel> dan40: All of those programs are installed by the 'bittornado' package.
[04:34] <jrib> !universe > dan40 (see the private message from ubotu)
[04:34] <Anthology> any suggestions for a good autoclick script? KAutoClick only allows me to set it to click every 99999 ms at max
[04:34] <devnull> wols_: tb brutally honest, it is not MY issue to fix with fglrx. ATI is the responsible party.
[04:34] <jeffvr> I checked the lsmod and and /dev/ folders and I can't find the device entry for the raid controller.  I've found others having similar problems with 2.6.20 and discuss blacklisting certain i2o drivers.  Is this the route I need to take?
[04:34] <Anthology> script == program :P
[04:34] <Flannel> dan40: and you don't need universe.  They're in main.  (and on a related note, xubuntu, kubuntu, and ubuntu all use the same repositories)
[04:34] <sigterm9> wow, reniced X is such a nice hack with SMP
[04:34] <Tom47> jrib is it meaningful really to say a file should be owned by root.root?  how does this differ from saying owned by root?
[04:34] <wols_> devnull: good luck with that attitude
[04:34] <jrib> Tom47: it means the group is root too...
[04:34] <dan40> flannel  : thanks
[04:35] <wastedfluid> I've done research, but I've come up empty.  My laptop will hibernate on a fresh boot.. but if you try to hibernate anytime after the first time you did hibernate - it won't do it.  the screen goes black(few moments later, it shows login box.. but keyboard is disabled..) and the power light on my laptop goes off, but the laptop is still on.  Any idea? (7.04)
[04:35] <devnull> wols_: Your telling me to fix a problem that is caused by a bug in the driver and saying I have an attitude...
[04:35] <magnethead> I've ran with and without nvidia enabled in restricted drivers manager but either way 1280 doesnt show
[04:35] <oni> how can I tell if I'm running the 64 bit edition of ubuntu?
[04:35] <Tom47> jrib ok ty
[04:35] <jrib> Tom47: like with chgrp
[04:35] <Tom47> yes
[04:36] <jrib> Flannel: rtorrent is in universe
[04:36] <wols_> devnull: there are tons of people using fglrx in x850xt. and even if it might be the responsibility (just might): in a perfect world ati would then fix it, but: do you think this is a perfect world where everything is as it should be?
[04:36] <Paddy_EIRE> magnethead, have you tried removing the resolutions you dont want? keep in mind you may need to put them back in if it does not work
[04:36] <eyemean> is there a different rm i should go to for parallels help?
[04:36] <wols_> if so, I have a beach property at Ayers Rock and in FLorida to sell to you
[04:36] <jrib> oni: uname -a
[04:36] <yurimxpxman> does anybody know how to stop libcurl from printing the result to the terminal?
[04:37] <magnethead> all i did was insert "1280x1024" in front of the string
[04:37] <jrib> yurimxpxman: redirect it to /dev/null instead
[04:37] <devnull> wols_: And if you were a little more informed, you would know how the ati release cycle is and how behind they are on current issues.
[04:37] <wols_> magnethead: tell us your monitor specs and paste xorg.conf and xorg.logs
[04:37] <oni> jrib, thanks... don't suppose you would know the meaning of a system hard lock with flashing keyboard LEDs?
[04:37] <Flannel> jrib: right, but the others (all the programs from bittornado) are in main.
[04:37] <Paddy_EIRE> magnethead, well wont hurt to try
[04:37] <yurimxpxman> jrib: how do I do that within the source code?
[04:37] <HardDisk> realplayer firefox plugin decided to stop working, removed and reinstalled realplayer whenever I try to click on preferences it crashes.
[04:37] <jrib> Flannel: true, but aren't they installed by default?
[04:37] <wols_> devnull: how old is your card?
[04:37] <jrib> yurimxpxman: heh, misread, never mind :)
[04:37] <magnethead> monitor is LG flatron 19" DFC LCD flatpanel
[04:37] <wastedfluid> I've done research, but I've come up empty.  My laptop will hibernate on a fresh boot.. but if you try to hibernate anytime after the first time you did hibernate - it won't do it.  the screen goes black(few moments later, it shows login box.. but keyboard is disabled..) and the power light on my laptop goes off, but the laptop is still on.  Any idea? (7.04)
[04:38] <devnull> x850 was 2005 iirc, it was a bug introduced in 8.34 driver release.
[04:38] <magnethead> graphics card it BFG/nvidia geforce FX 5500OC
[04:38] <wols_> 2005 aka ancient
[04:38] <sldkfj> Times up for my shift.  later.
[04:38] <jeffvr> ubotu: Was that question specific enough or do I need to give a bigger picture and than get specific?
[04:39] <lo4fer> jeffvr: ubotu is a bot
[04:39] <Flannel> jrib: only in Ubuntu, Xubuntu-D apparently doesn't depend on them.
[04:39] <magnethead> xorg.conf: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/26962/
[04:39] <jeffvr> lo4fer: Sorry I'm new to IRC.  What is a bot?
[04:40] <wastedfluid> jeffvr; a bot is a programmed irc client, usually.
[04:40] <lo4fer> jeffvr: it's a script
[04:40] <lo4fer> !ubotu
[04:40] <ubotu> I am ubotu, all-knowing infobot. You can browse my brain at http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl - Usage info: http://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuBots
[04:40] <wastedfluid> It's something someone made to do a certain thing.
[04:40] <rockets> When I log into gnome, I'm getting Error: Failed to initialize HAL
[04:40] <rockets> Any ideas?
[04:41] <jeffvr> Ahh. OK
[04:41] <magnethead> I do not have an xorg.log file
[04:41] <magnethead> get all that Wols?
[04:42] <craigbass1976> Stettin|work, The file server is a windows box, or linux?
[04:42] <Paddy_EIRE> magnethead, I once removed the other resolutions from a friends install and it worked straight away
[04:42] <tehpunkprodigy> is anybody familar with squid here?
[04:42] <magnethead> so just pull all of them but 1024 and 1280?
[04:42] <Nutubuntu> !anyone
[04:42] <ubotu> A large amount of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..."  Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out?
[04:43] <wols_> magnethead: you can only get 1024x768 max?
[04:43] <jeffvr> wols: Was my question specific enough?
[04:43] <magnethead> yea
[04:43] <magnethead> i have 1280 in the file but not on the prompt, even after restart
[04:43] <Paddy_EIRE> magnethead, no just leave 1280 x 1024
[04:43] <magnethead> 1024 is quite out of shape on a 19" flatpanel to say the least
[04:43] <wols_> jeffvr: yes. but tbh I'd say google for the error. like that blacklisting advice. your problem is not directly ubuntu specific so foearching simply for "Linux" will be afvised
[04:44] <wols_> chances are no one in heve even has that hardware, even if there are 1000+ people
[04:44] <wols_> magnethead: all of them have that res unless they are widescreen
[04:44] <rockets> I keep getting "Error Failed to Initialize HAL" and now my camera wont import photos
[04:44] <jeffvr> OK
[04:45] <wols_> magnethead: your monitor setting is wrong. divide 51000Hz/1024 and see what you get. note: fixed refresh rate of a TFT is either 50 or 60Hz. can't be anything else
[04:46] <magnethead> it should be at 60 hz
[04:46] <Paddy_EIRE> magnethead, most likely
[04:46] <navets> is there any way to make recordmydesktop make smaller video files?
[04:46] <magnethead> how do you mean my monitor setting is wrong? it's not giving my a frequency error, only unnative screen resolution
[04:46] <bruenig> navets, encode them afterwards
[04:47] <navets> bruenig: encoded?
[04:47] <UserX> wtf is ata/100 ata-6 and also IDE for laptops???
[04:47] <navets> bruenig: i dont know much about video files. How do I encode?
[04:47] <Davasaurous> I'm using an Nvida GeForce4 420 Go Card, but the Drivers in the Add/Remove section just cause me to get a black screen when I enable them. Where can I upgrade my drivers?
[04:47] <bruenig> navets, unless you fear you are going to run out of disk space, let it make the big file and then encode them
[04:47] <bruenig> navets, with certain codecs, xvid probably wold be good
[04:47] <magnethead> ata/100 and traditional IDE are same thing basically
[04:48] <magnethead> alhough laptop IDE is different i think
[04:48] <gotgenes> I can't log in under the same username in Xnest session as I logged in for the original session. Any ideas why not?
[04:48] <magnethead> i know desktop IDE is the head group for ata133 and ata100
[04:48] <navets> bruenig: is xvid a codec? also what apps can I use to encode?
[04:48] <wols_> magnethead: they are not the same thing and laptops use the same IDE/ATA spec like everyone else
[04:48] <magnethead> oh ok i stand corrected
[04:48] <wols_> magnethead: it's ATA
[04:48] <fiveiron> http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Sr2JneittqQ
[04:48] <bruenig> navets, not sure on the graphical end, but transcode mencoder ffmpeg all come to mind
[04:48] <fiveiron> way off topic... had to paste tho
[04:49] <wols_> magnethead: I told you waht to do. if you don't want to, your choice
[04:49] <magnethead> ok i have the file updated..do i just need to ctrl-alt-backspace or do a full reboot?
[04:49] <navets> bruenig: k ill try them out thanks
[04:49] <Cooner750> Ok, what gives with networking. I've set SMB on Ubuntu to match my workgroup (/etc/samba/smb.conf), and it still tells me "The folder contents could not be displayed." -- help?
[04:49] <magnethead> i dont see how you mean my monitor setting is wrong? It's set to autodetect
[04:50] <Paddy_EIRE> magnethead, have you tried what I said
[04:50] <magnethead> but ubuntu doesnt give me a 1280 option so my monitor leaves a blue tint screen over the rest of what's displayed saying change resolution
[04:50] <magnethead> what did you say?
[04:50] <gotgenes> Has anybody tried running a nested session with gdmflexiserver?
[04:51] <wastedfluid> I've done research, but I've come up empty.  My laptop will hibernate on a fresh boot.. but if you try to hibernate anytime after the first time you did hibernate - it won't do it.  the screen goes black(few moments later, it shows login box.. but keyboard is disabled..) and the power light on my laptop goes off, but the laptop is still on.  Any idea? (7.04)
[04:51] <Paddy_EIRE> magnethead, about removing all other resolutions but the one you want
[04:51] <magnethead> yea i did that
[04:51] <Paddy_EIRE> and
[04:51] <magnethead> so do i ctrl-alt-backspace or do a hot start?
[04:51] <Davasaurous> Anyone know where I can get the drivers for an Nvidia GeForce4 420 Go (laptop) Video card? the NV free ones don't work
[04:51] <Paddy_EIRE> magnethead, ctrl+alt+backspace
[04:51] <magnethead> ok
[04:53] <Davasaurous> Anyone know where I can get the drivers for an Nvidia GeForce4 420 Go (laptop) Video card? the NV free ones(from add/remove) don't work for me :(
[04:53] <magnethead> um wow that didnt work
[04:53] <Paddy_EIRE> Magilla, i that your surname (Magill)
[04:53] <magnethead> can you say 1280*800?
[04:53] <Paddy_EIRE> yeah
[04:53] <magnethead> i can't even read anything
[04:53] <wols_> magnethead: native res is 1280x1024
[04:54] <wols_> Paddy_EIRE: based on his xorg.conf, have you done the math of 51000/1024?
[04:54] <magnethead> i get 1280*800, 1280*768, 1152*768, 1024*768, 800*600, and 640*480
[04:54] <Paddy_EIRE> wols_, does not matter really as it displays on his screen on boot what the monitor wants
[04:54] <lo4fer> Davasaurous: NVIDIA has them on their website. alternately their is a program called "envy" that fetches and installs them automatically. it can have unpredictable results, though.
[04:54] <Cooner750> Can anyone help with my problem?
[04:55] <wols_> Paddy_EIRE: interesting concept. how did you come to this great conclusion?
[04:55] <Davasaurous> lo4fer: thanks, I'll try the Nvidia site and if I fail I'll come back for an adventure with Envy :P
[04:55] <wols_> Paddy_EIRE: I mean that xorg.conf contents don't really matter since xorg will simply ask the monitor and do what's "best"? I mean why do we still have xorg.conf if it's not taken into consideration?
[04:55] <asdqwezxcdsf> hey how can i make irc-channels automatically start up when launching gaim?
[04:55] <magnethead> the monitor just leaves my screen tinted light blue with "for optimal display change resolution to 1280x1024"
[04:56] <bruenig> asdqwezxcdsf, you can't
[04:56] <Paddy_EIRE> wols_, no need to take the long road for a shortcut ;)
[04:56] <wols_> Paddy_EIRE: what shortcut?
[04:56] <Paddy_EIRE> wols_, nm
[04:56] <bruenig> asdqwezxcdsf, unless you know of a way to have gaim automatically open conversations with certain buddies, then no, since it treats irc as the same thing
[04:56] <asdqwezxcdsf> can i do it in xchat?
[04:56] <gotgenes> Could anybody try doing "gdmflexiserver -n" and see if you can log in with your current user? I can only log in  as other users.
[04:56] <magnethead> so now what do i do?
[04:56] <asdqwezxcdsf> i couldn't find how to...
[04:56] <wols_> and I ask you again: why do we have xorg.conf it Xorg ignores it as you say and asks the monitor directly? and how does it ask non DDC monitors btw?
[04:57] <magnethead> highest i get is 1280*800
[04:57] <wols_> magnethead: can you do what I asked you?
[04:57] <bruenig> asdqwezxcdsf, yeah click on the network and edit it
[04:57] <magnethead> i did
[04:57] <magnethead> 1280x1024 is all thats listed on the file
[04:57] <Paddy_EIRE> magnethead, so what happened after you restarted once you left 1280x1024 by itself
[04:57] <Cusoon959> I need help with a problem. There are two copies of the drive "L33T FILEZ" on my desktop. When I umount /media/L33T FILEZ and unplug the drive, there is only one. But it's still there. Can anyone tell me how to make it so I only see one "L33T FILEZ" drive on my desktop?
[04:57] <magnethead> it came back and reloade dubuntu as 1280*800
[04:57] <Paddy_EIRE> magnethead, on each bit depth
[04:57] <wols_> magnethead: so what is the result of the calculation?
[04:57] <rockets> Anybody have gimpshop working?
[04:57] <magnethead> yes i did
[04:57] <magnethead> 49 and change
[04:58] <magnethead> it was working before i did the reconfigure
[04:58] <wols_> magnethead: ok. so so how can X tell the monitor to use 60Hz?
[04:58] <wols_> if it can according to xorg.conf go only to 49 in that re=
[04:58] <wols_> res?
[04:58] <magnethead> before i did the reconfigure i had 1600*1200 listed as a display option as highest
[04:59] <craigbass1976> Is there an Ubuntu equivilent to RH's chkconfig?  I don't have a gui, and don't want to edit all the rc file to stop vsftpd from starting at boot
[04:59] <Paddy_EIRE> magnethead, what is your monitor
[04:59] <forsen> any user of nessus here right now?
[04:59] <Cusoon959> Can anybody help me?
[05:00] <Paddy_EIRE> !ask
[05:00] <ubotu> Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[05:00] <mobutu> bruenig / asdqwezxcdsf : my pidgin/gaim opens up with specific irc channels, i just defined a 'chat'
[05:00] <magnethead> paddy: LG flattron DFC TFT LCD flatpanel
[05:00] <asdqwezxcdsf> bruenig thanks
[05:00] <forsen> Cusoon959, i am sure 'anybody' can, if there is such a person.
[05:00] <riutaro> Hello?
[05:00] <asdqwezxcdsf> chat?
[05:00] <Cusoon959> I did ask already.
[05:00] <bruenig> !hi | riutaro?
[05:00] <Cusoon959> I need help with a problem. There are two copies of the drive "L33T FILEZ" on my desktop. When I umount /media/L33T FILEZ and unplug the drive, there is only one. But it's still there. Can anyone tell me how to make it so I only see one "L33T FILEZ" drive on my desktop?
[05:00] <ubotu> riutaro?: Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu!
[05:00] <timthelion> how do I prevent the screen from going black after I don't move the mouse for 5 minutes?
[05:00] <Paddy_EIRE> magnethead, model number
[05:00] <Cooner750> Cusoon959: Good luck getting help in here >_>
[05:01] <riutaro> Yes Thanks.  My first time to be in IRC...  :)
[05:01] <magnethead> havent a clue. lemme look
[05:01] <Cusoon959> Should I go to Ubuntu Forums?
[05:01] <twocarlo> i don't know if xchat has that feature asdqwezxcdsf
[05:01] <bruenig> Cusoon959, simplify your question
[05:01] <craigbass1976> Cusoon959, you should have searched there first
[05:01] <forsen> took a long time, about 10 mins., to login to nessus. is that normal?
[05:01] <timthelion> Cusoon959: that is one hope, and if that doesn't work. go to the gnome mailing list
[05:01] <bruenig> Cusoon959, if there are two copies of it, then rm one it seems
[05:02] <riutaro> Looking for info about SCIM or any program that converts input into CJK scripts.
[05:02] <Cusoon959> It's not a shortcut. It doesn't show up in ls
[05:02] <asdqwezxcdsf> twocarlo yes it had
[05:02] <asdqwezxcdsf> found it already :P
[05:02] <bruenig> Cusoon959, turn off the thing in gconf that puts it there to begin with
[05:02] <magnethead> L1932tq bfr-ausxqpn
[05:02] <LyleM> i'm running rsync and it takes like an hour to complete. So when i do ssh ipaddress, then rsync -a point a to be, how can i exit ssh and still have that running on the server?
[05:02] <riutaro> Is there any localisation of Ubuntu where SCIM works for Skype?
[05:03] <twocarlo> asdqwezxcdsf : good for you
[05:03] <Cusoon959> I don't know how
[05:03] <Cusoon959> Never used gconf
[05:03] <Davasaurous> This is probably a massive noob question, but anyway...
[05:03] <Davasaurous> Is Ubuntu Linux x64 or x86? :\
[05:03] <apache2> how can I lock certain packages and prevent them from upgrading?
[05:03] <apache2> and not through synaptics
[05:03] <Frogzoo> Davasaurous: both
[05:03] <magnethead> that's the whole model number
[05:03] <twocarlo> both
[05:03] <Davasaurous> Fiesty Fawn 7.04? So I can download either of the drivers and be fine?
[05:03] <Frogzoo> apache2: in synaptic, choose 'lock version'
[05:03] <wols_> magnethead: since you clearly can't do much logical thinking or choose to ignore me: change your HorizSync
[05:04] <apache2> Frogzoo: I said not through synaptics
[05:04] <Paddy_EIRE> magnethead, http://reviews.cnet.com/lcd-monitors/lg-l1932tq-flat-panel/4505-3174_7-31951003.html is this it
[05:04] <apache2> I have to hard lock them
[05:04] <wols_> Davasaurous: you need nvidia-legacy
[05:04] <apache2> b/c I use adept and the command line
[05:04] <wols_> !envy | lo4fer
[05:04] <apache2> and it doesn't picke up on the syaptic locks
[05:04] <ubotu> lo4fer: envy is a script that may leave you envious of those who have not used it, use the resticted manager to install binary drivers or use the instructions on the wiki, this script may break your machine very badly!
[05:04] <asdqwezxcdsf> bruenig: when i make the list how do i separate the channels from each other?
[05:04] <wols_> lo4fer: do not tell people to use envy or automatix please
[05:04] <wols_> at least not in here
[05:04] <magnethead> paddy yes
[05:05] <RoC_MM> wols_, why?
[05:05] <magnethead> wols u coulda just told me to do that
[05:05] <apache2> why can't you tell people to use automatix
[05:05] <Davasaurous> Nvidia Legacy makes me loose a small strip of my screen and forces my resolution down to 800x600
[05:05] <magnethead> what do i change the sync to?
[05:05] <A_b> you have the option on the download as to your core needs ie 32 bit or 64 bit
[05:05] <wols_> magnethead: cause you should find out on your own to LEARN. if you want stuff force fed, hire a conslutant. he will do your work for you. I always tried to push you in the direction with giving hints
[05:05] <bruenig> asdqwezxcdsf, comma
[05:05] <wols_> magnethead: just THINK one time please for your own
[05:06] <nomas> hi. somebody can help me ?
[05:06] <magnethead> i dont know anything about display systems
[05:06] <Cusoon959> nomas: Yes. Just ask away.
[05:06] <asdqwezxcdsf> bruenig: it didnt work...
[05:06] <wols_> magnethead: that has nothing to do with display systems per se, but with simple math
[05:06] <nomas> ok, i want to install an ircd
[05:06] <magnethead> i can make the stuff inside a computer agree, i just dont know how to make what's inside to communicate with the display device very well
[05:06] <bruenig> asdqwezxcdsf, you did it wrong
[05:06] <bruenig> no spaces, just commas
[05:07] <nomas> how can i search an ircd ?
[05:07] <asdqwezxcdsf> only the first channel opened
[05:07] <magnethead> so what am i supposed to set it to? 46 and change
[05:07] <den_santiago> does anyone knows how to upgrade to firefox 2.0?
[05:08] <Cusoon959> den_santiago: sudo apt-get upgrade
[05:08] <nomas> i try to install ratbox ircd but it say that i need bison
[05:08] <magnethead> I work on engines. not computers
[05:08] <Paddy_EIRE> wols_, thats what i mean by "the long road for a shortcut" if you have something to teach ppl then answer a question that specifically details that they want to read mind numbing nonsense for an hour and stop putting them off...something to prove have we, or maybe you have been up to long
[05:08] <den_santiago> am using dapper..
[05:08] <den_santiago> it just upgrades the 1.5
[05:09] <crdlb> den_santiago, upgrade to edgy or feisty or download it from mozilla.com and use it in your home folder
[05:09] <magnethead> I just put a 600 watt PSU in because i smoked the dell 200 watter
[05:09] <craigbass1976> den_santiago, if 2.0 runs as badly on dapper as it does on edgy, you don't want it
[05:09] <Paddy_EIRE> bye guys
[05:10] <TeraDyne> Firefox 2.0 is why I no longer run firefox
[05:11] <TeraDyne> SeaMonkey and Konqueror are just as good, even though they don't have all the cool addons.
[05:11] <asdqwezxcdsf> bruenig:  #channel1 , #channel2 , ...?
[05:11] <magnethead> so what do i change the horiz and vert sync to?
[05:11] <bruenig> #channel1,#channel2
[05:13] <m_n_p> is the mouse issue with Feisty and virtual PC kernel-related? I've noticed the problem with many linux distros i've tried.
[05:13] <iamcO_ol> hi
[05:13] <asdqwezxcdsf> ok
[05:14] <level1_> whats the name of the virtualization software called xen
[05:14] <iamcO_ol> how may change permission using liveCD?   What next?
[05:15] <wols_> magnethead: as for choosing 46: what is 46000Hz/1024?
[05:15] <iamcO_ol> level1_: don't know the user in the LiveCD
[05:15] <fghfghfgh> uh`
[05:16] <magnethead> almost
[05:16] <magnethead> 45
[05:16] <iamcO_ol> level1_: what root??? I don't think that'll allow me to burn it
[05:16] <fghfghfgh> nick chat
[05:16] <Flannel> wastedfluid: /lastlog level1_
[05:16] <Flannel> er, oops.
[05:16] <gotgenes> Could anybody try doing "gdmflexiserver -n" (you need package "xnest") and see if you can log in as your current user name? I can only log in as other users.
[05:16] <wastedfluid> ?
[05:17] <magnethead> but where is 46K pulled from?
[05:17] <wastedfluid> Flannel; ?
[05:17] <iamcO_ol> anyone know? You know, I am trying to isntal this distro, actually
[05:17] <iamcO_ol> so i would appreciate some help on this
[05:17] <Flannel> wastedfluid: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/NetworkManager#head-41669d33dd37ace3464ac217a60ffac444fff514
[05:17] <wols_> < magnethead> so what am i supposed to set it to? 46 and change <- from this
[05:18] <navets> i need help
[05:18] <Flannel> iamcO_ol: Why do you need to change permissions?
[05:18] <wols_> the value for that setting is kHz
[05:18] <navets> im trying to use avidumux to open a video
[05:18] <navets> and it is a .avi video i made with recordmydesktop
[05:18] <navets> but it wont open
[05:18] <magnethead> well if horiz is set to range from 28Khz to 51 Khz would 46.982 fall in that range?
[05:18] <iamcO_ol> Flannel: this is from previous installation and I wanna do a reinstall, and I've got stuff i don't wanna delete so I wanna burn and k3b isn't letting me burn the pictures folder for instance
[05:18] <iamcO_ol> that's why
[05:19] <Flannel> iamcO_ol: er, you can't read the pictures folder you mean?
[05:19] <wols_> level1_: sudo chmod -R a+r /mountpointofhdd
[05:19] <wols_> iamcO_ol:  sudo chmod -R a+r /mountpointofhdd~
[05:19] <iamcO_ol> wols_: awsome let mee see if it works
[05:19] <Flannel> !away > ruff|away
[05:20] <navets> i need help resizing a video
[05:20] <wols_> magnethead: it will, but how will it solve your problem: as I said: 46000/1024 is what again?
[05:20] <Rex_> hello all.
[05:20] <navets> how can i resize a .avi to make it smaller?
[05:20] <Rex_> does anyone know if there is a way for me to connect to a Novell VPN (Contivity) site with Ubuntu?
[05:21] <fghfghfgh> joined #u
[05:21] <ooooopsss> whats root password
[05:21] <magnethead> 44.921875
[05:21] <ooooopsss> whats default root password
[05:21] <wols_> so 49 did not work. what makes your think 44 will?
[05:22] <magnethead> thats what i'm asking
[05:22] <magnethead> i dont know what you're telling me
[05:22] <gotgenes> Rex_: network-manager-pptp?
[05:22] <ooooopsss> whats default root password?
[05:22] <magnethead> i know nothing of how graphics cards and monitors communicate
[05:22] <magnethead> i build engines, not computer systems
[05:22] <Flannel> ooooopsss: there is none.  Ubuntu doesn't use root.
[05:22] <bran_> how do I make IRSSI show a userlist on the side?
[05:22] <navets> ooooopsss: there is no root for ubuntu
[05:22] <Flannel> !root | ooooopsss
[05:22] <ubotu> ooooopsss: do not try to guess the root password, that is impossible. Instead, realise the truth.. there is no root password. Then you will see that it is sudo that grants you access and not the root password. Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo
[05:22] <Rex_> gotgenes: thanks... I will look in to that
[05:22] <ooooopsss> it says i need the root password for java
[05:23] <Flannel> ooooopsss: it's lying.  Are you just installing java?  Use the one in the repositories.
[05:23] <gotgenes> Rex_: it adds a menu item in the dropdown menu of the Network Manager applet (system tray)
[05:24] <magnethead> so i dont know where you'll pulling these numbers from or what they meam
[05:24] <magnethead> mean
[05:24] <wdgfsdf> anh oj
[05:25] <Rex_> gotgenes: cool.. thanks.
[05:25] <gotgenes> Rex_: there's also -openvpn and -vpnc
[05:25] <wols_> vertrefresh is the refresh rate. in your case fixed at 60 which it needs to have
[05:25] <gotgenes> Rex_: hopefully one will work
[05:25] <bababa> good afternoon!
[05:25] <ooooopsss> what is root password for instaling java
[05:25] <ooooopsss> it wont let me
[05:25] <Rex_> gotgenes: yeah... I will have to poke at it.
[05:25] <wols_> ooooopsss: there is no root password
[05:25] <wols_> !java | ooooopsss
[05:25] <Flannel> ooooopsss: there is NO root password.  Are youinstalling java?
[05:25] <ubotu> ooooopsss: To install a Java compiler/interpreter on Ubuntu, look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Java - For the Sun Java runtime install sun-java5-jre from the !Multiverse repository. Enable the backports repository on Edgy to install sun-java6-jre
[05:26] <magnethead> it needs to have what
[05:26] <wols_> ooooopsss: you don't need the root pw either btw
[05:26] <EADG> ooooopsss: your login pass is the root password.
[05:26] <bababa> anyone tell me , how to change menu font of scribus <IP_ADDRESS> ?
[05:26] <Oni-Dracula> hey guys - whats up with the "restricted driver" for ATI cards causing the system to lock up with no display on startup?
[05:26] <iamcO_ol> do I have to shorted the names when burning for Linux?
[05:26] <iamcO_ol> just axing
[05:27] <Frogzoo> !ati
[05:27] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[05:27] <iamcO_ol> k3b tells me is gonna chopp of a bucn of stuff
[05:27] <wols_> horiSync is a leftover from CRTs and the analog way of transmitting images over vga: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Horizontal_sync
[05:27] <EADG> hehe, I knew there was a reason why I stick around in this #...
[05:27] <wols_> the bottom gist is, your horizontal Sync must be high enough to accomodate the product of vertical resolution (1024) and your refrehsrate (60)
[05:27] <Flannel> bran_: the nicklist script
[05:28] <wols_> magnethead: all clear now?
[05:28] <magnethead> ok
[05:28] <magnethead> what about vertrefresh?
[05:29] <keaton> Can somebody walk me though mounting my MP3 player manually?
[05:29] <magnethead> ok i just set it from 28-65
[05:29] <wols_> magnethead: if it still doesn't work: I asked you for xorg.log long ago
[05:30] <magnethead> that file doesnt exist?
[05:30] <wols_> keaton: is it a mass storage device on usb?
[05:30] <magnethead> that or it's not being shown
[05:30] <navets> anyone know a good app to convert .ogg to .avi?
[05:30] <wols_> magnethead: ls -al /var/log/?org*
[05:30] <keaton> wols_: I'm pretty sure. The thing is, when I plug it in, the daemon tells me it's a camara and trys to mount it using some camara protocol, which fails.
[05:30] <wols_> navets: isn't .ogg audio, .ogm video and .avi video?
[05:31] <wols_> keaton: dmesg output please?
[05:31] <gotgenes> wols_: ogg is a container; it can contain video, too
[05:31] <ooooopsss> what is the su password for instaling java
[05:31] <magnethead> ok i have that prompt open
[05:31] <TeraDyne> wols_: I've seen .ogg as video
[05:31] <navets> wols_: ogg has video as well
[05:31] <wols_> gotgenes: I know. usually .ogm is used I thought
[05:31] <navets> wols_: im using a program called recordmydesktop and it saves files as .ogg
[05:31] <keaton> wols_: uh, dmesg?
[05:31] <vbabiy> Hey is there a good screen recorder for Ubuntu with a gui so you can select where to record
[05:31] <wols_> ooooopsss: how are you installing java? what command line do you use?
[05:31] <gotgenes> wols_: ogm I think denotes MPEG encoded video in an OGG container
[05:32] <preaction> ogm is the container, ogg is the audio
[05:32] <wols_> keaton: yes dmesg
[05:32] <ooooopsss> gnome?
[05:32] <TeraDyne> vbably: recordmydesktop or istanbul sould work
[05:32] <wols_> ooooopsss: is "gnome" your command you use to install java?
[05:32] <ooooopsss> no su is
[05:32] <wols_> ooooopsss: full line please
[05:32] <gotgenes> ooooopsss: use sudo, not su
[05:32] <magnethead> wols- what do i set vertrefresh to?
[05:32] <wols_> ooooopsss: and there is no way to use su in proper ubuntu
[05:33] <ooooopsss> su is my command promp
[05:33] <magnethead> is 43-60 fine?
[05:33] <wols_> magnethead: long ago I told you your tft can only do 50 or 60Hz depending on model. and it doesn't matter, no matter what you set it will use its refreshrate
[05:33] <wols_> leave it be
[05:33] <magnethead> oh ok
[05:34] <magnethead> (im also watching busch race
[05:34] <lazaruslupine> question: I have apache2 running w/ torrentflux and jinzora, jinzora suddenly stopped working and the default apache page won't show up, but torrentflux still works. any ideas?
[05:34] <godtvisken> What's the difference between a program like photoshop and illustrator?
[05:35] <wols_> are you watching races while fixing a car too?
[05:35] <ooooopsss> what is the su password for instaling java?
[05:35] <wols_> gotgenes: ask adobe. not #ubuntu
[05:35] <godtvisken> ooooopsss: your own password
[05:35] <ooooopsss> thre command is su!!
[05:35] <sebas_> !sudo
[05:35] <ubotu> sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for all information.
[05:35] <wols_> ooooopsss: it does not exist. and you DON'T use the java from sun.com!
[05:35] <bruenig> there is no su by default
[05:35] <bruenig> by which I mean no root
[05:35] <ooooopsss> when i put my own password it says access denyed
[05:35] <gotgenes> wols_: Ask Adobe what?
[05:35] <wols_> ooooopsss: if you want to your ubuntu will break. and you ask sun.com for support not us
[05:35] <Dr_willis> root has no password by default. :)
[05:36] <py_geek> ALL- is there any way i can block a website?
[05:36] <wols_> gotgenes != godtvisken srry :)
[05:36] <magnethead> finally working
[05:36] <wols_> godtvisken: ask adobe. not #ubuntu. you are offtopic
[05:36] <gotgenes> wols_: np
[05:36] <magnethead> i can see whats on screen without a blue tint
[05:36] <wols_> py_geek: yes. e.g. iptables
[05:36] <ooooopsss> you guys softwere sux
[05:36] <sebas_> !iptables
[05:36] <ubotu> Ubuntu, like any other linux distribution, has firewall capabilities built-in. The firewall is managed using the 'iptables' command (see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/IptablesHowTo), or GUI applications such as Firestarter (Gnome) or Guarddog (KDE).
[05:36] <wols_> ooooopsss: there is no way to use su in ubuntu
[05:37] <ooooopsss> su
[05:37] <wols_> ooooopsss: we long ago told you how to install java 1.5 or 1.6. it's YOUR fault if you ignored it
[05:37] <wols_> !java | ooooopsss
[05:37] <ubotu> ooooopsss: To install a Java compiler/interpreter on Ubuntu, look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Java - For the Sun Java runtime install sun-java5-jre from the !Multiverse repository. Enable the backports repository on Edgy to install sun-java6-jre
[05:37] <lo4fer> does anybody here participate in the bug squad?
[05:37] <py_geek> wols_ - how do i use that
[05:38] <ooooopsss> that site does not exist
[05:38] <py_geek> ooooopsss- ubotu is a bot
[05:38] <ooooopsss> i know that
[05:38] <TeraDyne> ooooopsss: Yes, it does. I have it up in Konqueror right now
[05:39] <lashmoove> is there a gui for ffmpeg that can do batch convert jobs?
[05:39] <ooooopsss> can someone give me some assistance?
[05:39] <ooooopsss> a real person not a bot
[05:39] <ooooopsss> msg me
[05:40] <Strangelv> su won't work if you haven't done sudo passwd
[05:40] <Dr_willis> Strangelv,  thats a secret... :)
[05:40] <wols_> ooooopsss: it does exist. I am looking at it right now.  https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Java
[05:40] <ooooopsss> how do u make sudu password
[05:40] <wols_> !root
[05:40] <ubotu> do not try to guess the root password, that is impossible. Instead, realise the truth.. there is no root password. Then you will see that it is sudo that grants you access and not the root password. Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo
[05:40] <preaction> ooooopsss: there is no reason to
[05:41] <wols_> ooooopsss: we don't support that here
[05:41] <w30> sudo -i is a useful command if you have a bunch of sudo's to do
[05:41] <Strangelv> ooooopsss: the standard solution is to use 'sudo rootcommand' to run whatever root command
[05:41] <Dr_willis> sudo whatevercommand  or use 'sudo -i' or 'sudo -s'
[05:41] <lashmoove> or sudo su
[05:41] <wols_> w30: don't help him breaking his system please
[05:41] <bigmatt_> in 64 bit ubuntu does it include 32 bit emulation libraries? or you have to install manually?
[05:41] <wols_> bigmatt_: there are ia32libs
[05:41] <wastedfluid> Flannel; Anyone point me to any kind of tutorial or hibernation FAQ?  Laptop goes nuts when you try to hibernate a 2nd time.  (7.04)
[05:41] <bigmatt_> thanks wols_
[05:42] <w30> wols_: Linux is a powerful operating system for good or evil heh, heh
[05:42] <sebas_> wastedfluid: i have the same problem but in the 1st one :(. Seems like a very common issue
[05:42] <Flannel> wols_: `sudo -i` doesn't break anything.
[05:42] <wols_> Flannel: but installing java from sun does
[05:43] <py_geek> all- is there anyway i can block a website using the standard ubuntu feisty download?
[05:43] <invisiblepinkuni> ooooopsss: sudo is equivalent to su, you can use sudo to run anything you want as long as you are administrator (wheel group)
[05:43] <wols_> cause then no java package from ubuntu will ever work due to dependencies
[05:43] <Flannel> wols_: right.  But wha was he doing besides !java?  Eh, doesn't matter. No big deal.
[05:43] <Flannel> !away > TeraDyne|Away
[05:43] <Strangelv> w30: despite Linus' suggestions, I have not used Linux in any shark-mounted lasers
[05:43] <wols_> Flannel: he is trying to run the sun java.bin
[05:44] <w30> Strangelv: hrmm...
[05:44] <wols_> wastedfluid: which type of hibernation do you use?
[05:45] <wastedfluid> wols_; Hm.  I just use Hibernate in 7.04.. Whatever comes factory??
[05:45] <py_geek> ALL - is there any way i can block a website? (cant figure out how to download iptables)
[05:45] <Jordan_U> py_geek, I am sure there is a way to do it with iptables
[05:45] <Flannel> py_geek: iptables is already installed
[05:45] <wols_> py_geek: aptitude install iptables
[05:45] <Jordan_U> !firewall | py_geek
[05:45] <ubotu> py_geek: Ubuntu, like any other linux distribution, has firewall capabilities built-in. The firewall is managed using the 'iptables' command (see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/IptablesHowTo), or GUI applications such as Firestarter (Gnome) or Guarddog (KDE).
[05:45] <Dr_willis> py_geek,  quick and dirty.. edit the hosts file and point the address to <IP_ADDRESS>
[05:45] <Dr_willis> :)
[05:45] <wols_> py_geek: chances are, it's already there
[05:45] <lo4fer> py_geek: what site
[05:45] <Flannel> py_geek: you can also just always route your hosts file to localhost. yeah
[05:46] <wols_> py_geek: but note that what you want to do is easily circumvented by anyone with only half a clue
[05:46] <wastedfluid> wols_;  Is there an additional hibernate method?
[05:46] <invisiblepinkuni> py_geek: yes, good idea Dr_willis
[05:46] <Dr_willis> invisiblepinkuni,  thers some 'anti spam/ad' hosts file site out i recall ages ago. :)
[05:46] <wols_> so unless you want to block a program from phoning home, it usually won't work (that is if you want to block a human from visiting a site)
[05:46] <py_geek> lo4fer: runescape. i'm sick and tired of playing it too much
[05:47] <harisamin> hey guys
[05:47] <harisamin> i have a rpoblem
[05:47] <wols_> wastedfluid: there is suspend2 but that needs a kernel patch. means a custom kernel
[05:47] <harisamin> on g4 powerpc...during the installation of the bast system...i get a debootstrap error
[05:47] <Flannel> harisamin: Try the minimal ISO
[05:47] <lo4fer> py_geek: so what you want is basically a diy netnanny
[05:47] <harisamin> i'm uisng an egy alternate cd for powerpc...and i checked it on a G3 powerbook and teh integrity of the cd is alright
[05:48] <py_geek> dr_willis- i'm still detoxing from windows, where is the ubuntu host file?
[05:48] <harisamin> Flannel: i did...the alternate cd...thats what i've been trying
[05:48] <Dr_willis> py_geek,  i saw a firefox extension the other day that turns firefox into a 'kid safe' browser.
[05:48] <Dr_willis> py_geek,  in /etc with all the other system config files. :)
[05:48] <Flannel> harisamin: no, the minimal ISO, not the alternate CD.
[05:48] <Flannel> !minimal | harisamin
[05:48] <ubotu> harisamin: The Minimal CD image is very small in size, and it downloads most packages from the Internet during installation, allowing you to select only those you want (the installer is like the one on the !Alternate CD). See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/MinimalCD
[05:48] <invisiblepinkuni> py_geek: /etc/hosts
[05:48] <Jordan_U> Strangelv, /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[05:48] <Flannel> harisamin: it downloads all packages from the internet, so they won't be read wrong.
[05:48] <Dr_willis> You want to block a site.. from yourself using it?
[05:49] <harisamin> ok
[05:49] <harisamin> i'll try this flannel
[05:49] <palomer> hello
[05:49] <palomer> how do I get ubuntu to check/fix my filesystem?
[05:50] <Strangelv> Jordan_U: the only resoluhion listed there is 1280x768.  640x480, 800x600, and 1024x768 show up anyway
[05:50] <Jordan_U> palomer, run this then reboot: sudo touch /forcefsck
[05:50] <wols_> palomer: sudo touch /forcefsck. then reboot
[05:50] <palomer> thx
[05:50] <harisamin> Flannel: the minimal iso links from the page you sent me are all dead for POWERPC?
[05:50] <incandenzian> Has anyone experienced a situation where, if you leave the computer unattended for a fair length of time, when you come back and pull it out of screensaver, you've got this boot-screen-looking lines of code and then it doesn't load back into X?
[05:50] <kyled185> does anyone know why on ubuntu server sudo would suddenly stop working?
[05:50] <Flannel> py_geek: check out `dansguardian` in universe.  It's similar to netnanny
[05:50] <wols_> incandenzian: means your suspend to disk is broken
[05:51] <cwgannon> ahoy ... can gnomeparted merge two fat32 partitions?
[05:51] <Jordan_U> kyled185, Is your user set up in /etc/sudoers ?
[05:52] <kyled185> Jordan_U: I can't check because I can't open it. However it was working perfectly fine until it all of a sudden stopped working
[05:52] <satukan_hati_dan> jiwa
[05:52] <kyled185> Jordan_U: and it happened during the middle of a session, no reboot, no updates or anything
[05:52] <cappii> evening everyone
[05:52] <satukan_hati_dan> raga
[05:52] <satukan_hati_dan> kokgor
[05:52] <satukan_hati_dan> krll]
[05:52] <harisamin> Flannel: are u there...the minimal iso links on that page are dead?
[05:53] <Jordan_U> kyled185, You can check it from single user mode or a liveCD
[05:53] <craigbass1976> Is there an Ubuntu equivilent to RH's chkconfig?  I don't have a gui, and don't want to edit all the rc file to stop vsftpd from starting at boot
[05:53] <Jordan_U> kyled185, I have no idea why it would stop working though
[05:53] <Flannel> harisamin: http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/feisty/main/installer-powerpc/current/images/powerpc/netboot/
[05:53] <kyled185> Jordan_U: yeah, I don't either, I've never seen that happen ever
[05:54] <Flannel> kyled185: What error does it give?  anything?  `sudo -K` and then try something.
[05:54] <unrealsword> hey whats the best ubuntu music player
[05:54] <Flannel> !best | unrealsword
[05:54] <ubotu> unrealsword: Usually, there is no single "best" application to perform a given task. It's up to you to choose among a number of different applications, depending on your preferences, the features you require, and other factors.
[05:54] <unrealsword> heh
[05:55] <harisamin> Flannel: you just sent me a link for the feisty version...i thought there was no poewrpc fesity vresion...are u sure that will allow me to download packages and stuff...coz i knwo for edgy i still can
[05:55] <invisiblepinkuni> damn.... i have a root user on my system... how did that happen?
[05:55] <AJ--> hi just want to ask??? are webcam supported in ubuntu.. to run in yahoo
[05:55] <Strangelv> Jordan_U: one detail is that my xorg.conf is a bit of a hack to get 1280x768 to work at all.  It also dates to when this machine was installed with Edgy.  Wait.  Dapper from the previous HD.
[05:55] <unrealsword> besides what comes stock with ubuntu
[05:55] <invisiblepinkuni> does anyone else have root by default?
[05:55] <unrealsword> anything interesting?
[05:55] <kyled185> ah, I think I removed myself from the admin group
[05:55] <palomer> gnomebaker rocks!
[05:55] <unrealsword> lol
[05:55] <palomer> I like it better than k3b
[05:55] <Jordan_U> Strangelv, What kind of hack? Just adding the resolution manually or more than that?
[05:56] <cappii> I've personally not had any luck with webcams on any version of Linux with Yahoo.
[05:56] <w30> unrealsword: sometimes the best choice is to use a gnome one if using gnome and kde if using kde, etc
[05:56] <AJ--> are webcam support in ubuntu to run in yahoo
[05:56] <Flannel> harisamin: PPC from feisty on is community supported.  You can get the other CDs here: http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/ports/releases/7.04/release/
[05:56] <harisamin> Flannel: so the netinstall for feisty will work then?
[05:56] <Strangelv> Jordan_U: manually added and removed everything else.  IIRC, ntil I did that I couldn't get 1280x768 to work at all
[05:56] <invisiblepinkuni>  sudo head -n 1 /etc/passwd gives root:x:0:0:root:/root:/bin/bash
[05:56] <cappii> AJ - I don't think so... did you google it?
[05:57] <Flannel> harisamin: yeah. If you want a previous version, here's edgy: http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/edgy/main/installer-powerpc/current/images/powerpc/netboot/
[05:57] <Strangelv> Jordan_U: Actually, I can't remember when it dates to.  Either Dapper or Edgy
[05:57] <Flannel> !root | invisiblepinkuni
[05:57] <ubotu> invisiblepinkuni: do not try to guess the root password, that is impossible. Instead, realise the truth.. there is no root password. Then you will see that it is sudo that grants you access and not the root password. Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo
[05:57] <Jordan_U> Strangelv, What is the problem now? Did that stop working also?
[05:57] <Flannel> invisiblepinkuni: Ubuntu doesn't use root, it uses sudo instead.
[05:57] <invisiblepinkuni> Flannel: i understand that, but how is there a root user on my system. i dont remember creating one
[05:58] <Jordan_U> Flannel, Do people actually try to guess the root password?
[05:58] <Flannel> invisiblepinkuni: Oh.  Sorry.  root user exists.  It just can't login.  That's normal.
[05:58] <Strangelv> Jordan_U: It runs nicely at 1280x768 until I run something that wants to be fullscreen.  Then it's FUBAR
[05:58] <invisiblepinkuni> Flannel: oooohhhhh thank the IPU... for a moment i thought my system was hacked. :)
[05:58] <Flannel> Jordan_U: yeah.  People come in and say "Ive tried everything I can think of" yadda yadda.  Just like trying to guess user/password for (bad burned) liveCDs
[05:58] <cappii> correct.  you cannot log in as root from the login
[05:59] <Flannel> invisiblepinkuni: nah, the root user exists because (most) ofthe system files are owned by it.  It is a user, it's just unable to login.
[05:59] <Jordan_U> Strangelv, I would backup your old config and update to what Feisty wants by running: sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg -phigh
[05:59] <lockdown2> Jordan_U, i just use sudo to change the root password
[05:59] <cappii> Probably just as a safeguard to keep people from messing up the install
[05:59] <harisamin> Flannel: the minimial installation is only 12 megabytes....instead of burning a cd....can i put int on a zip disk and boot from zip disk in powerpc?
[05:59] <AJ--> i  wanted to use a4tech cam on my yahoo running under wine but i dont know how to configure it.. does any one know?
[05:59] <Jordan_U> lockdown2, That is what you are supposed to do ( if you really insist on having one that is )
[05:59] <invisiblepinkuni> Flannel: is it theoritically possible to login to root? if i luckily enter the right password?
[06:00] <Flannel> harisamin: yeah.  It just needs to be booted from.
[06:00] <Jordan_U> invisiblepinkuni, Yes :)
[06:00] <Flannel> invisiblepinkuni: no.  There are NO passwords that will work for the root account.
[06:00] <Flannel> Jordan_U: no.
[06:00] <harisamin> Flannel: but how do u burn an iso to a zip disk?
[06:00] <invisiblepinkuni> Jordan_U: ?
[06:00] <Flannel> !install | harisamin
[06:00] <ubotu> harisamin: Ubuntu can be installed in lots of ways. Please see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation for documentation. Problems during install? See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/CommonProblemsInstall and https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DapperReleaseNotes/UbiquityKnownIssues - See also !automate
[06:00] <Strangelv> Jordan_U: Danke.  Know any keywords I could try searching if that doesn't work? My attemptsat finding something on my own have not been successful (thus my bugging people in here)
[06:00] <Jordan_U> Flannel, Sorry, misunderstood question
[06:00] <Flannel> harisamin: check out that page, it explains how to boot from USB disks and stuff.  Same method
[06:00] <DanaG> How do you get amarok to automatically run scripts at startup?
[06:00] <invisiblepinkuni> phew....
[06:00] <AJ-->  i  wanted to use a4tech cam on my yahoo running under wine but i dont know how to configure it.. does any one know?
[06:00] <logan> I just installed ubuntu and it isnt detecting my PCMIAA Netgear wireless network card, what do I have to do?
[06:01] <Arenlor>  invisiblepinkuni, did you set a password for the root account?
[06:01] <invisiblepinkuni> Flannel: Jordan_U : just a layer of security for brute force attackers cant exploit
[06:01] <Jordan_U> logan, Do you know what chipset the card uses?
[06:01] <logan> No
[06:01] <DanaG> logan: what card is it?
[06:01] <logan> It is a PCMIAA Netgear card
[06:01] <invisiblepinkuni> Arenlor: no i did not, but just saw that there was a root user on my system and got worried
[06:01] <DanaG> Name, or model number?
[06:01] <DanaG> Look on the bottom.
[06:01] <cappii> Logan: when you click on network connections, beside the clock, what do you see?
[06:02] <invisiblepinkuni> i dont remember this root user existed for 5.10 or 6.06
[06:02] <Jordan_U> logan, Can you pastebin the output of: lspcmcia
[06:02] <logan> Wired network
[06:02] <AJ-->  i  wanted to use a4tech cam on my yahoo running under wine but i dont know how to configure it.. does any one know?
[06:02] <Arenlor> invisiblepinkuni, good then it has no password and can't be used
[06:02] <logan> How do I output lspcmia?
[06:02] <Flannel> invisiblepinkuni: it did.  It's always existed
[06:02] <lockdown2> invisiblepinkuni, the root user has to exist
[06:02] <riutaro> Hello, someone help me play DVD across region codes? I have installed libdvd but does not seem to work.
[06:02] <Jordan_U> logan, Just run it in a terminal
[06:02] <TheGoodShepherd> Do any of you folks know of an Open Source Trebuchet simulator program?
[06:02] <TheGoodShepherd> That works on linux?
[06:02] <invisiblepinkuni> thanks folks
[06:03] <logan> bash: lspcmia: command not found
[06:03] <Strangelv> TheGoodShepherd: I haven't but that sounds like fun
[06:03] <DanaG> pcmcia
[06:03] <kyled185> I was thinking the same thing
[06:03] <Jordan_U> logan, pcmCia
[06:03] <Flannel> TheGoodShepherd: Wouldn't a spreadsheet work fine?  Simple kinematics?  Do you have a trebuchet program for non-linux?
[06:04] <Jordan_U> riutaro, I think that libdvdcss ignores region codes, do any DVD's work?
[06:04] <logan> Socket 0 Bridge:        [yenta_cardbus]          (bus ID: 0000:02:05.0)
[06:04] <logan> Socket 1 Bridge:        [yenta_cardbus]          (bus ID: 0000:02:05.1)
[06:04] <Jordan_U> !paste | logan
[06:04] <ubotu> logan: pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the #ubuntu channel topic)
[06:04] <wols_> logan: don't paste here!
[06:04] <invisiblepinkuni> a liveCD should detect a windows partition and do a rm -rf /  :D
[06:04] <logan> Define large texts, that is only two lines
[06:05] <DanaG> 3 is about the edge of what I'd use.
[06:05] <Jordan_U> logan, Yea, but many times because of the flood prevention it takes a while to paste a lot, so it seemed ( to me at least ) like you were trying to paste the whole thing
[06:05] <DanaG> Model number is useful to google with the word 'linux'
[06:06] <riutaro>  Jordan_U: Yes, I have DVDs from Jp work.  but not ones from US.
[06:06] <DanaG> Such as, "Netgear MA521 Linux" without quotes.
[06:06] <Jordan_U> DanaG, google.com/linux is better :)
[06:06] <logan> Ok well I only have two PCMCIA ports and those are the only two lines lspcmcia output
[06:06] <AJ--> any one knows how to install a4tech cam.. so i can make it work with yahoo msgr
[06:06] <Jordan_U> riutaro, And the ones from Japan are encrypted?
[06:07] <narthollis> hey guys - how can i find out why my kernel paniced?
[06:07] <metbsd> wat is that package that makes my resolution to 1280x800?
[06:07] <Jordan_U> metbsd, What GFX card do you have?
[06:08] <metbsd> intel
[06:08] <Jordan_U> metbsd, 915resolution
[06:08] <metbsd> yah
[06:08] <metbsd> how do i install it?
[06:08] <nuOpus> hello
[06:08] <Jordan_U> metbsd, Enable universe and install it like any other package ( synaptic / apt )
[06:08] <wols_> good to know that metbsd isn't running kubuntu since he thinks it's too unstable
[06:08] <metbsd> also, no sound coming out of my laptop, unless i plugin the earphone
[06:09] <nuOpus> does anyone know how to make suspend laptop work with desktop effects on? it works perfect with them off
[06:09] <riutaro> Jordan: <<<
[06:09] <riutaro> And the ones from Japan are encrypted?<<<
[06:09] <riutaro> I don't know.  The pachage says the DVDs are not copyable.  Is that what you meant
[06:09] <riutaro> ?
[06:09] <metbsd> i put the kubuntu back
[06:09] <nuOpus> otherwise I just get a black screen with just cursor when it comes back up
[06:09] <Jordan_U> riutaro, Yes
[06:10] <Strangelv> Jordan_U: Run -- I'll find out if it works the next time I'm forced to restart X Windows or similar.  Thank you.
[06:10] <alecw2> Whenever I open any PHP document, I get this error: "The filename "admin.tpl.php" indicates that this file is of type "PHP script". The contents of the file indicate that the file is of type "HTML document". If you open this file, the file might present a security risk to your system." How do I stop this?
[06:11] <Consty> Is there any apps that operate like daemon tools?  Where you can mount an iso image and read it ?
[06:11] <riutaro> Jordan_U: and one of the US DVDs have NTSC (region 1) written on the package.
[06:11] <logan> I thought linux was supposed to be really good at autodetecting and supporting drivers of things
[06:12] <vbabiy> Hey is there a good screen recorder for Ubuntu with a gui so you can select where to record
[06:12] <riutaro> Mplayer rejects opening it.
[06:12] <logan> I can't find any links that still work regarding the 8180L chipset
[06:12] <PurpZeY> vbabiy: There are at least 3.
[06:12] <overrider> is there a commandline qq client?
[06:12] <wols_> qq?
[06:12] <vbabiy> PurpZeY: thats great what are they?
[06:12] <riutaro> the error message being "cannot access maybe permission problem?"
[06:12] <overrider> qq, the popular chinese instant messaging thingy
[06:13] <PurpZeY> vbabiy: I've used istanbul, there is another one, it's called x-screen-capture, or screen or something that nature.
[06:13] <wols_> logan: sudo modprobe r818x
[06:13] <metbsd> overrider: there is eva, but it's for kde
[06:13] <Oni-Dracula|64> so is there an ATI driver that doesn't break xorg?
[06:13] <Jordan_U> riutaro, Have you tried VLC or mplayer ?
[06:13] <alecw2>  Whenever I open any PHP document, I get this error: "The filename "admin.tpl.php" indicates that this file is of type "PHP script". The contents of the file indicate that the file is of type "HTML document". If you open this file, the file might present a security risk to your system." How do I stop this?
[06:13] <wols_> Oni-Dracula|64: what ati chip/card?
[06:13] <vbabiy> thanks PurpZeY
[06:13] <overrider> metbsd: hey, yeah i was looking for something simple, just need the chat function
[06:13] <Oni-Dracula|64> wols_: radeon X300SE
[06:13] <PurpZeY> vbabiy: No worries.
[06:13] <Arenlor> logan, have you tried ndsiwrapper?
[06:14] <riutaro> Yes.  VLC shuts down when I prompt it to open the bloody DVD.
[06:14] <overrider> metbsd: for osx there is adium
[06:14] <metbsd> so how do i get earphone to work in notebook
[06:14] <metbsd> overrider: oh you are the german in guangdong, right?
[06:14] <wols_> Oni-Dracula|64: which driver have you tried?
[06:14] <wols_> Oni-Dracula|64: is it a DX9 capable card?
[06:14] <logan> No, I'll download that
[06:14] <vbabiy> hey do you know a url to istanbul
[06:15] <wols_> vbabiy: not constantinople.com
[06:15] <Oni-Dracula|64> wols_: it's DX9... and I tried the restricted driver through the GUI and the "manual" command line install
[06:15] <Arenlor> logan, this site here gives some instructions about making it work after ndiswrapper http://www.samwel.tk/bart/various/dwl-510-on-linux-2.6.html
[06:15] <overrider> metbsd: yeah
[06:15] <Oni-Dracula|64> wols_: "xorg-driver-fglrx"
[06:16] <wols_> Oni-Dracula|64: and how did it break?
[06:16] <wols_> vbabiy: http://www.ibb.gov.tr/en-US/AnaSayfa/
[06:16] <Oni-Dracula|64> wols_: installed it, restarted and when xorg launches during bootup my display blanks itself as if the resolution was out of range (possibly)
[06:17] <Oni-Dracula|64> wols_: from what I can tell, the system is locked up
[06:17] <wols_> Oni-Dracula|64: check your log
[06:17] <overrider> metbsd: playing with ubuntu now for laptops?
[06:17] <Oni-Dracula|64> wols_: the xorg log? where is it, i forget
[06:17] <metbsd> overrider: yah, im bored of windows and want to try some *nix
[06:17] <logan> I can't find the ndsiwrapper package
[06:17] <alecw2> How do I set a default application for opening PHP files?
[06:18] <metbsd> so far, windows still best on this laptop
[06:18] <PurpZeY> logan: I don't think it's in the repos.
[06:18] <Jordan_U> Oni-Dracula, Can you get to a terminal with ctrl+alt+F1 ?
[06:18] <cappii> Metbsd:  what type of laptop?
[06:18] <overrider> metbsd: ubuntu usually works for me laptop wise
[06:18] <eyemean> hi, can some1 tell me best way to format HD but still be able to keep some partitions?
[06:18] <Oni-Dracula|64> Jordan_U: no i can not
[06:18] <Xenguy> .oO(console)
[06:18] <Jordan_U> Oni-Dracula, Does sysrq K work?
[06:18] <metbsd> acer aspire 3680
[06:19] <Oni-Dracula|64> Jordan_U: never tried it, what's it do?
[06:19] <saxartist> Here's where my Ubuntu is living:  http://www.tomorrowagain.com
[06:19] <DanaG> alt-sysrq-k is kernel-level "kill everything on current tty"
[06:19] <saxartist> Like my case?
[06:19] <cappii> I'm running Feisty Fawn on 3 different laptops
[06:19] <riutaro> Jordan_U: Just tried with Totem.  The error message is "An error occurred/ Could not read from resource."
[06:19] <Oni-Dracula|64>  hmmm ill try it to see what happens
[06:20] <Jordan_U> riutaro, Totem ( rather totem-gstreamer ) Can't play DVD's at all anyways
[06:20] <metbsd> overrider: so you having fun in dong guan?
[06:20] <metbsd> overrider: aren't those chicks too easy or what
[06:21] <alecw2>  How do I set a default application for opening PHP files?
[06:21] <Jordan_U> alecw2, Right click -> Properties -> Open With
[06:22] <wols_> onelessday: /var/log/
[06:22] <vbabiy> hey PurpZeYp do you know if there is one that can record a specific area of the screen
[06:22] <riutaro> Jordan_U: my incurable ignorance.....  Anyways, reading this page (https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats/PlayingDVDs) I was under the impression that everything works alright once I have done command "sudo apt-get install libdvdread3 libxine1-ffmpeg"
[06:22] <overrider> metbsd: easy my ass
[06:22] <Anthology> city check: 00zero00
[06:22] <alecw2> Jordan_U, I did that, but it only works for that one time
[06:22] <alecw2> I have to keep doing it with each file.
[06:22] <overrider> metbsd: ive been working my balls of for this one , and until now, 4 months later, no go
[06:22] <PurpZeY> vbabiy: istanbul can...I mean, that program worked for me, but I understand that it can be hit or miss...with screen caps.
[06:23] <overrider> metbsd: im not talking hookers yeah, i mean normal regular individuals
[06:23] <metbsd> overrider: most of foreigners in china have girl problem
[06:23] <DanaG> (offtopic:)ooh, PCIe wifi card.
[06:23] <DanaG> http://www.bit-tech.net/hardware/2007/06/24/abit_airpace_wifi_pci-e_card/1
[06:23] <vbabiy> PurpZeY: ok thanks i will give it a try
[06:23] <overrider> metbsd: well this one is really giving me a hard time
[06:24] <logan> I just installed ndiswrapper, what now? Nothing happend.
[06:24] <Jordan_U> alecw2, You shoudn't have to, are you sure you went to right click -> Properties -> Open with and not just right click -> Open with ?
[06:24] <alecw2> Yes, Jordan.
[06:25] <alecw2> I get the following error:
[06:25] <alecw2> The filename "admin.tpl.php" indicates that this file is of type "PHP script". The contents of the file indicate that the file is of type "HTML document". If you open this file, the file might present a security risk to your system.
[06:25] <willarizona> Question: during the alternate cd install (the text based one).. my install has been sitting on "installed brltty-x11" for a looong time.. should i restart the install? sitting ay 85% complete of select and install software part. just sitting there :(
[06:25] <metbsd> overrider: i thought they are just loose with foreigners
[06:25] <alecw2> Do not open the file unless you created the file yourself, or received the file from a trusted source. To open the file, rename the file to the correct extension for "HTML document", then open the file normally. Alternatively, use the Open With menu to choose a specific application for the file.
[06:26] <camh> i've got a gigabyte ds3 motherboard with an ICH8 chipset. What do I need to do to enable sata hotswap?
[06:26] <PurpZeY> logan: You have to install the driver into ndiswrapper. . .I haven't really been following what you're up to, but that's the step.
[06:26] <overrider> metbsd: nah, there is a certain kind that is, but the regular normal working girls, like with office jobs and stuff, same shit as home. lots of work and time needed
[06:27] <Jordan_U> riutaro, " I was under the impression that everything works alright once I have done command "sudo apt-get install libdvdread3 libxine1-ffmpeg"" no, you need to follow the next section's instructions also, for libdvdcss2
[06:27] <Oni-Dracula> wols_, so what does it mean when alt-sysreq-k does nothing?
[06:28] <metbsd> overrider: oh,hehe
[06:28] <metbsd> overrider: i'm now in shenzhen
[06:28] <metbsd> overrider: there are lonely girls everywhere in the weekend
[06:28] <metbsd> overrider: but you better be a native, it's easier
[06:29] <Comrade-Sergei> how do you turn down gamma correction in ubuntu?
[06:29] <overrider> metbsd: nah, after 8 years, you become sort of accustomed
[06:29] <|Porsche> metbsd: a native of where?
[06:29] <metbsd> |Porsche: china
[06:30] <|Porsche> never been there, have been to korea though
[06:30] <dotpavan> Comrade-Sergei, just wondering which card? i810?
[06:30] <overrider> metbsd: shenzhen isnt far away, why not come by some time, for a few drinks
[06:30] <metbsd> overrider: so how many in 8 years
[06:30] <Comrade-Sergei> dotpavan, ATi Radeon 9280
[06:30] <logan> PurpZey, I have to install a driver into ndiswrapper? What driver and how? I have the Netgear MA521, uses the 8180L chip
[06:30] <Oni-Dracula> Jordan_U, would you happen to know why ctrl+alt+sysreq+k does nothing with this bug?
[06:30] <metbsd> overrider: maybe i should!
[06:30] <overrider> metbsd: haha, i was kind of involved for 4 years with a girl, so didnt see much action then
[06:31] <Comrade-Sergei> dotpavan, well just brightness really
[06:31] <overrider> metbsd: yes you should, if you want i send you my mobile in case you find the time, give me a call...
[06:31] <regjava> I am getting "failed to run admin-services as user root" even if i try to start it as a diffrent nuser
[06:31] <metbsd> overrider: i can only come at weekend, i have to work til 10pm weekday
[06:32] <dotpavan> Comrade-Sergei, xvattr command does that
[06:32] <metbsd> i'm working in this canadian company
[06:32] <Jordan_U> Oni-Dracula, Either your system is thoroughly crashed ( at the kernel level ) or whatever controls video output is, without ssh enabled ( which I doubt it is ) it's not really possible to tell which
[06:32] <metbsd> the working time is just screwedup
[06:32] <dotpavan> Comrade-Sergei,  !xvattr
[06:32] <metbsd> working hour that is
[06:32] <regjava> it says "unable to copy users X authorization file"
[06:33] <narthollis> Hey guys, i have a system running Ubuntu server 6.06.1, which has kernel paniced a few times lately - how can i find out why its kernel panicing?
[06:33] <Oni-Dracula> Jordan_U, would you think the official ATI driver is anything but poo?
[06:33] <PurpZeY> logan: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=92119&highlight=Netgear+MA521
[06:33] <dotpavan> Comrade-Sergei,  just use the brighntess/contrast paramater
[06:34] <Frogzoo> narthollis: only way I know is to run a console off the serial port
[06:34] <alecw2> Can somebody look at this, and help me out? http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=2902286#post2902286
[06:34] <Frogzoo> narthollis: but usually just fixing whatever driver is the problem is all you need
[06:34] <Jordan_U> Oni-Dracula, If you have an ATI card I would probably say that is the culprit, use the open source drivers ( if they work for your card ) or disable DRI to get more stability.
[06:34] <narthollis> Frogzoo: yeah, i dont know what module is causing the issue though
[06:34] <DanaG> How do you get amarok to auto-run scripts at start?
[06:34] <dotpavan> hey, how do you convert media file to 3gp format? do you people use mencoder/ffmpeg commandline or recommend any gui app?
[06:34] <westoncampbell> My laptop's (Dell Inspiron 600m) S-Video out does not work on Ubuntu 7.04 Feisty Fawn. My video card is ATI (ATI Technologies Inc Radeon R250 [Mobility FireGL 9000] ). How can I make it work???
[06:34] <narthollis> plugin in a moniter dosnt show engough of the panic output
[06:35] <Oni-Dracula> Jordan_U, I was using the open sauce drivers :(
[06:35] <Comrade-Sergei> dotpavan, gotta dl it
[06:36] <Jordan_U> Oni-Dracula, Oh, they aren't bad stability wise AFIK, just feature and speed wise ( due to lack of documentation )
[06:36] <dotpavan> Comrade-Sergei, nope, I guess "xvattr" is part of feisty
[06:36] <OmegaCenti> Alright, there is a large box in underneath me in nethack, how do I open/loot the darn thing?
[06:36] <Comrade-Sergei> dotpavan, not on my feisty box
[06:37] <dotpavan> Comrade-Sergei, it is just an apt-get install away
[06:37] <Jordan_U> Oni-Dracula, Do you have openssh installed?
[06:37] <logan> :~$ ndiswrapper -i NET8180.INF
[06:37] <logan> couldn't create /etc/ndiswrapper/net8180: Permission denied at /usr/sbin/ndiswrapper-1.9 line 146.
[06:37] <Comrade-Sergei> dotpavan, nah i prefer a gui
[06:37] <PurpZeY> logan: use sudo
[06:37] <regjava> Can i get my system to login automatically every time i Boots?
[06:37] <Oni-Dracula> Jordan_U, if it's not installed by default, then no
[06:38] <Jordan_U> Oni-Dracula, Did this computer ever boot correctly? Is this a new install / LiveCD ?
[06:38] <Comrade-Sergei> dotpavan, how do i edit?
[06:38] <westoncampbell> My laptop's (Dell Inspiron 600m) S-Video out does not work on Ubuntu 7.04 Feisty Fawn. My video card is ATI (ATI Technologies Inc Radeon R250 [Mobility FireGL 9000] ). How can I make it work???
[06:38] <PurpZeY> !ATI | westoncampbell
[06:38] <ubotu> westoncampbell: To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[06:38] <Oni-Dracula> Jordan_U, yes it booted correctly when freshly installed...then after installing the ati driver under the GUI "Restricted Drivers" it broke
[06:38] <dotpavan> Comrade-Sergei, see system-->pref-->monitor settings (on feisty) (only if your card is supported)
[06:39] <dotpavan> Comrade-Sergei, it is called "gddcontrol"
[06:39] <Comrade-Sergei> dotpavan, monitor settings wtf?
[06:39] <riutaro> Jordan_U, okay.  I followed the insturction in the page to the very end.  Installed libdvdcss2 and checked if region code is set in the dvd driver (with regionset).  Nope, the US dvd still causes VLC to close without notice.
[06:39] <Jordan_U> Oni-Dracula, The restricted driver manager installs the proprietary drivers ( fglrx ) ( the ones I commented were unstable :)
[06:40] <Oni-Dracula> Jordan_U, ok so what is installed by default? the open source ones?
[06:40] <Jordan_U> Oni-Dracula, Yes
[06:40] <crdlb> westoncampbell, you can't
[06:40] <westoncampbell> crdlb: whaaat? Why?
[06:40] <Oni-Dracula> Jordan_U, what's it's apt-get package name?
[06:40] <logan> FATAL: Error inserting ndiswrapper (/lib/modules/2.6.20-16-generic/kernel/ubuntu/misc/ndiswrapper/ndiswrapper.ko): Operation not permitted
[06:41] <Comrade-Sergei> dotpavan, you have those things in your preferences?
[06:41] <PurpZeY> logan: sudo
[06:41] <crdlb> westoncampbell, because your card is no longer supported by fglrx
[06:41] <crdlb> (the proprietary ati driver)
[06:41] <dotpavan> Comrade-Sergei, yup
[06:41] <crdlb> and there's no way to get an older version (8.28.8 or older) working on feisty
[06:41] <Jordan_U> Oni-Dracula, They are still installed, just boot a liveCD and change your /etc/X11/xorg.conf to use "ati" instead of "fglrx"
[06:41] <Comrade-Sergei> dotpavan, lol i dont!
[06:41] <westoncampbell> @crdlb, that really stinks because I was wanting to hook up to my TV.
[06:41] <Oni-Dracula> Jordan_U, thanks
[06:41] <narthollis> hmmm... what console framebuffer dose ubuntu use?
[06:42] <lazaruslupine> I'm stuck. On my server torrentflux is working, but no other php based service is working(phpmyadmin, jinzora)
[06:42] <westoncampbell> crdlb, maybe installing an incorrect display driver will make it work, as long as I don't get any weird side effects?
[06:42] <dotpavan> Comrade-Sergei, try "gddcontrol"
[06:42] <Jordan_U> Oni-Dracula, Depending on your card, you may or may not get 3D acceleration with the open source drivers, but if you do they will work with beryl :) ( fglrx won't without XGL )
[06:42] <crdlb> westoncampbell, it just won't work
[06:43] <lazaruslupine> like phpmyadmin is installed but apparently can't be found on the server
[06:43] <logan> sudo: cardctl: command not found , I also tried without sudo
[06:43] <Comrade-Sergei> dotpavan, command not found
[06:43] <logan> it told me to try getting it with apt-get but the package doesn't exist
[06:43] <DanaG> pccardctl
[06:44] <dotpavan> Comrade-Sergei, try apt-get
[06:44] <PurpZeY> logan: You are typing the wrong command somehow...@DanaG pccardctrl
[06:44] <wols_> logan: have you searched on packages.ubuntu.com?
[06:44] <DanaG> A more useful utility is hal-device-manager -- shows a device tree.
[06:44] <Comrade-Sergei> dotpavan, its not in the repos
[06:44] <logan> This website just says #cardctl but pccardctl worked
[06:44] <Oni-Dracula> Jordan_U, all i care about is wine + warcraft 3 :)
[06:45] <Jordan_U> Oni-Dracula, That may or may not run better with fglrx
[06:45] <hypo> Hi, is there an equivelent to the "windows" key in ubuntu? (something that will allow me to switch to the desktop when running a program)
[06:45] <dotpavan> Comrade-Sergei, what are you running?
[06:45] <NaNO2x> hi, whats the program for screwing with your network stuff? wpconfig or something is what i remember but thats not working
[06:45] <wols_> Oni-Dracula: so what does your log say?
[06:45] <Comrade-Sergei> dotpavan, ubuntu 7.04 feisty fawn
[06:45] <wols_> NaNO2x: screwing in what way? be specific
[06:45] <dotpavan> hypo: you can configure keyboard shortcuts to whatever you want
[06:46] <Oni-Dracula> wols_, don't know... i have no idea where the xorg log is
[06:46] <wols_>  /var/log
[06:46] <NaNO2x> such as figureing out which is connecting to a network with
[06:46] <NaNO2x> i think its eth0, but it may be eth1
[06:46] <hypo> dotpavan: is there a default method of "alt-tabbing" out of a running program?
[06:46] <PurpZeY> NaNO2x: iwconfig
[06:46] <wols_> NaNO2x: /sbin/ifconfig
[06:46] <NaNO2x> thanks
[06:47] <dotpavan> hypo: you want to minimise current window or all windows?
[06:47] <hypo> current
[06:47] <tripppy> im getting errors while emptying garbage bin, yes ive tryed "sudo rm -rf /home/<your username>/.Trash/*"
[06:47] <ryantucc> can someone help? I think I may have wrecked my laptop...
[06:47] <dotpavan> hypo: alt-f9, but you can configure that
[06:47] <wols_> !ask | ryantucc
[06:47] <ubotu> ryantucc: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[06:47] <hypo> thank you very much dotpavan!
[06:47] <CNTRLX> Anybody know if there are shared servers up for XDMCP on list somewhere to be able to use other OS;s?
[06:48] <Flannel> CNTRLX: XDMCP uses UDP, so you can't use it (unless you tunnel) outside of your LAN
[06:48] <CNTRLX> yes
[06:48] <Dr_willis> CNTRLX,  clarify that a bit..  not sure what you are meaning..
[06:49] <ryantucc> I installed kde to try it out, and it worked, then I restarted and it dropped me to a command line with an error message. I asked on the forum here (http://kubuntuforums.net/forums/index.php?topic=3084481.0) and was told to edit a file after booting from an install disk, but now I can't find that file
[06:49] <CNTRLX> i was wondering if people shared servers of running desktops to be able to login from your local machine
[06:49] <thechris> !dvd
[06:49] <ubotu> For playing DVD, see http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/desktopguide/C/video.html - "libdvdcss2" can be found at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/SeveasPackages - Try k9copy (available in !Universe) for backing up DVDs
[06:49] <logan> I did everything it told me to do
[06:49] <logan> and this happend on the last step
[06:49] <logan> http://pastebin.com/935027
[06:49] <Dr_willis> CNTRLX,  if they do. they probly are not using xdmcp, they may be using vnc, or freenx,
[06:49] <wols_> ryantucc: files have names and paths. and if you know those you can edit them
[06:50] <Comrade-Sergei> dotpavan, ?
[06:50] <riutaro> ubotu, thanx.  I will have a look at ti.
[06:50] <CNTRLX> darn
[06:50] <Rob[Writing] > I love this channel. I always learn so much.
[06:50] <dotpavan> Comrade-Sergei, sorry, dunno what the prob is with your sys
[06:50] <CNTRLX> same
[06:50] <thechris> I have libdvdcss, what do i need to get a DVD menu in gnome's movie player?
[06:50] <ryantucc> wols: the person on the forum said to edit /boot/grub/menu.lst - but typing that into Konqueror gets an error message saying that file does not exist
[06:51] <Comrade-Sergei> dotpavan, i think its a games setting that didnt come off when i kille d it
[06:51] <thechris> It lists the DVD as cdrom0, and selecting the DVD does not work, it tells me to install the correct plugins
[06:51] <dotpavan> Comrade-Sergei, then try restarting xserver.. ctrl-alt-backspace
[06:51] <thechris> but it plays as cdrom0, but doesn't show the menu
[06:51] <wols_> ryantucc: /boot/grub/menu.lst on the harddisk. which is mounted but not on / which means there is something bfore /booot/
[06:52] <CNTRLX> when i have my fiesty cds come. do they have vnc?
[06:52] <wols_> !info vnc
[06:52] <ubotu> Package vnc does not exist in feisty, feisty-seveas
[06:52] <PurpZeY> logan: It could conceivably set at eth1 as opposed to wlan0....just at thought.
[06:52] <Saied> i want emacs text based editor not emacs in X window. which package is for it?
[06:52] <wols_> CNTRLX: ubuntu has vnc yes
[06:52] <ryantucc> wols: I'm sorry, I don't understand
[06:52] <PurpZeY> logan: But, I have to go to bed. sorry man...Good luck, I'm sure you can work it through.
[06:52] <wols_> ryantucc: it's only /boot/.... whne you boot from that harddisk
[06:53] <CNTRLX> is there xdmcp community websites?
[06:53] <w30> ryantucc: just open home icon and put / at the top and hit enter
[06:53] <wols_> your CD is now / and therefore it's /harddis/boot. I dunno what the livecd uses for /harddisk/ tho
[06:53] <Jordan_U> CNTRLX, AFIK yes, in System -> Preferences -> Remote Desktop
[06:54] <scary> hey, I am having a problem where my sound card shows up in my lspci, but not in my aplay -l.  I know the card is supported by alsa, and I already tried installing the newest alsa drivers anyways.  Any suggestions?
[06:54] <Dr_willis>  xdmcp is not really related to vnc CNTRLX  - totally different 'design goals'
[06:54] <CNTRLX> yes i knwo that
[06:54] <thechris> what applications actually play DVDs and support menu
[06:55] <CNTRLX> im just interested in xdmcp right now
[06:55] <ryantucc> wols/w30: okay, I see the boot folder, but there's no menu.lst to edit anywhere
[06:55] <dotpavan> thechris, totem, smplayer
[06:55] <lazaruslupine> Hi everyone... I had jinzora,torrentflux,and phpmyadmin all working, and suddenly only torrentflux works
[06:55] <Jordan_U> !dvd | thechris
[06:55] <ubotu> thechris: For playing DVD, see http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/desktopguide/C/video.html - "libdvdcss2" can be found at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/SeveasPackages - Try k9copy (available in !Universe) for backing up DVDs
[06:55] <wols_> ryantucc: what is your current path?
[06:55] <Dr_willis> CNTRLX,  you dont use xdmcp to share 'existing' desktops either. You use it to get a Local machine to have a 'displayed x session' thats running on a remote box. (normally)
[06:55] <ryantucc> wols: /boot
[06:55] <Ausicaemia> Alright, I have a question.
[06:56] <CNTRLX> ok
[06:56] <Ausicaemia> My monitor complains: "Input Range Not Supported" while usplash or whatever it is called now is doing its thing.
[06:56] <wols_> w30: since you told him how to edit his menu.st from a live cd by going to /bvoot: you help him
[06:56] <CNTRLX> clarification is great
[06:56] <CNTRLX> thanks
[06:56] <Ausicaemia> So is there a way I can tell usplash to use a certain resolution?
[06:56] <CNTRLX> its good if im 4 hours away from my house
[06:56] <Ausicaemia> Or color-depth
[06:56] <Ausicaemia> Or something?
[06:57] <Ausicaemia> Or is there a way I can just have a text bootup sequence rather than USPLASH?
[06:57] <Ausicaemia> That would be a last resort, cause I like usplash.
[06:58] <dotpavan> text boot sequence can be had by disabling usplash in /boot/grub/menu.lst for ubuntu section
[06:58] <konnect> wussup
[06:58] <Jordan_U> riutaro, My friend from Israel says that he can play region 2 DVDs on his region 1 only DVD drive using VLC and libdvdcss2
[06:58] <Ausicaemia> Yeah, but that is a last resort, so is there a way I can fix it without doing that?
[06:58] <dotpavan> Ausicaemia, but be careful while editing that file
[06:58] <Ausicaemia> Is there a way to tell usplash to use a certain resolution/bit depth?
[06:58] <konnect> anyone know a quick way to get my 865pe built on sound to work? I have everything else on my system working perfect but not the sound :-(
[06:58] <dotpavan> Ausicaemia, there is a usplash theme manager or something like that.. cant remember exactly
[06:59] <thechris> the !dvd did not work
[06:59] <Ausicaemia> Yeah I remember that from when I used Breezy
[06:59] <Ausicaemia> Forget what it is called though, I'll have a poke around in synaptic.
[06:59] <thechris> I just want to know how to get to a menu on the DVD
[06:59] <Ausicaemia> Thanks :)
[06:59] <scary> konnect, I am having a sound issue with an intel board also
[06:59] <dotpavan> Ausicaemia, np, just apt-cache search usplash
[06:59] <scary> what is your issue?
[06:59] <Jordan_U> thechris, Use VLC
[07:00] <w30> ryantucc: if you are using (booted) on livecd then you will have to open a terminal and mount your hard drive that is in your box. sudo /mnt , next sudo mkdir hda1 (where 1 is actually the hard drive that your install is in, next sudo mount /dev/hda1 /mnt/hda1, then open up konqueror and type in /mnt/hda1(1 being the appropiate drive again)/boot
[07:00] <palomer> god I love ubuntu
[07:00] <palomer> how do I find out whos my hard disk manufacturer?
[07:01] <Frogzoo> palomer: lshw likely
[07:01] <emptychair> Hey, I just installed ubuntu for the first time. I tried to activate my NVIDIA accelerated graphics driver from the restricted drivers menu, but it won't work. Any solution?
[07:01] <Dr_willis> palomer,  open the case and look? :)
[07:01] <Ausicaemia> Could it be "gnome-splashscreen-manager"?
[07:01] <Dr_willis> well night all.
[07:01] <riutaro> Jordan_U, after installing all gstream codecs I still cannot play region 1 dvds with totem (or any player I have )  the error message for totem is "Totem cannot play this type of media (DVD) because you do not have the appropriate plugins to handle it. / Please install the necessary plugins and restart Totem to be able to play this media" This puzzles me since I can use totem to play jp dvds right.
[07:02] <Frogzoo> palomer: nope, well smartmontools will do it
[07:02] <w30> ryantucc: better yet just type in a terminal kwrite /mnt/hda1/boot/menu.1st
[07:02] <DanaG> Does the drive being RPC1 or RPC2 matter?
[07:02] <emptychair> Hey, I just installed ubuntu for the first time. I tried to activate my NVIDIA accelerated graphics driver from the restricted drivers menu, but it won't work. Any solution?
[07:03] <dotpavan> Ausicaemia, no, that is when gdm is loading
[07:03] <Jordan_U> riutaro, If you can use totem to view any DVD then you have totem-xine installed rather than totem-gstreamer which is default, not that that helps you in any way :(
[07:03] <w30> ryanakca: I mean sudo kwrite /mnt/hda1/boot/menu.1st or else you won't be able to save an edit
[07:03] <Jordan_U> emptychair, Define "won't work"
[07:03] <riutaro> sigh.....
[07:03] <Ausicaemia> Oh, well there's nothing else.
[07:04] <scary> is there another place I can go to get support?  I think having so many users makes it difficult to get help in this irc channel
[07:04] <emptychair> when i click enable, it just instantly returns to the same menu and doesn't change anything
[07:04] <ryantucc> w30: okay, I got a bunch of error messages, the last one saying drkonqi: cannot connect to X server :0.0
[07:04] <riutaro> Jordan, so this can be a problem in the dardware?
[07:04] <narthollis> scary: try searching the channel list for ubuntu
[07:04] <bayziders> For some reason my processor is maxxed out at 100% when all I have is Gaim open... it has never done this before it should be down around 25%. What is wrong?
[07:04] <scary> narthollis:  thank you
[07:04] <ryantucc> w30: It also says "kio (KSycoca): ERROR : No database available" several times
[07:05] <Frogzoo> scary: https://help.ubuntu.com/community
[07:05] <palomer> western digital!
[07:05] <dotpavan> Ausicaemia, try this http://www.debianadmin.com/configure-grub-and-usplash-settings-using-simple-gui-interface-in-ubuntu.html
[07:05] <slantai> i cannot change the default boot os.  i cannot write to boot>grub>menu.1st
[07:05] <Ausicaemia> dotpavan, Thanks a lot.
[07:06] <wols_> slantai: use sudo or gksudo
[07:06] <BachCo^ngCo^ng> he lo
[07:06] <BachCo^ngCo^ng> good afternon
[07:06] <pha|con> When i press the "play" button on my keyboard rythmbox starts.  how do i change the default mp3 play for the OS to be amarok?
[07:07] <pha|con> i've already set the properties of mp3's to start with beep-media-player, so when i double click them individually they start in beep, but i want amarok to start when i press my "music player" hotkey
[07:07] <defrysk> pha|con, righclik an mp3 file select properties, one of the tabs will give you an onption to set whateverplayer as default
[07:07] <emptychair> when i click enable, it just instantly returns to the same menu and doesn't change anything
[07:07] <slantai> i dont understand what your saying
[07:08] <Ausicaemia> Multimedia keys are tricky.
[07:08] <defrysk> pha|con, then you can set it to amarok and thats it :)
[07:08] <Ausicaemia> I never got mine to work properly, besides I use Rhythmbox anyway.
[07:08] <pha|con> defrysk: no, i've already done that
[07:08] <Ausicaemia> defrysk, he's talking about multimedia keys, not file associations.
[07:08] <defrysk> pha|con, no you selected open with
[07:08] <defrysk> ah sorry
[07:08] <defrysk> nm
[07:09] <defrysk> its good morning here :/
[07:09] <pha|con> defrysk: that's for starting individual files.  my keyboard has "hotkeys" that can start individual programs with the press of one button.  pressing my "media player" button starts rythmbox, but i want it to start amarok
[07:09] <pha|con> defrysk: i'm wondering how to tell gnome that i want my default media play to be amarok and not rythmbox
[07:09] <Rob125> Oh, hey. Any way to prevent rhythmbox from starting up when plugging in an ipod, while we're on the topic?
[07:09] <defrysk> pha|con, go to #kubuntu , amarok is a KDE app
[07:10] <w30> ryantucc: ubuntu should have made a backup of your /etc/X11/xorg.conf file called xorg.conf.orig or xorg.conf.bak or xorg.conf(something) also /boot/menu.1st should have a backup file also if you changed it. if you can find those you can at a console terminal sudo cat "backup file" > "original file" and restore your original config. Also look in /var/backup for files
[07:10] <Ausicaemia> dotpavan, I love you! hahaha
[07:10] <ericleblanc> hello... ive just installed ubuntu 7.04 on an other pc. I want to install KDE and Gnome on it and since I dont have an internet connection yet, I wanted to install it via the installation disk. Was wondering if ubuntu-desktop and kubuntu-desktop packages are in fact on the installation cd for the server version
[07:10] <defrysk> pha|con, actuallt there is an app for that , one second
[07:10] <Ausicaemia> That does exactly what I was after.
[07:10] <pha|con> defrysk: i think it's more of a matter of telling ubuntu what the default app should be, it's not an option from within amarok
[07:10] <Ausicaemia> Thanks so much.
[07:10] <bruenig> Rob125, in xfce that is customizable, I presume in gnome where they don't want to confuse the user, it is not. You can always disable hal but that might be more than you want
[07:10] <Rob125> fair enough
[07:10] <Rob125> thanks
