[15:12] <richiefrich> harry1989: what keys
[15:12] <Brandon_> Is there a way to add commands a user can run? Like if user x can't run command y without being root is there like a list of commands user x can run or does this involve groups?
[15:12] <harry1989> any number keys on the numpad
[15:12] <bazhang> !usb | Plouj
[15:12] <harry1989><PHONE_NUMBER>
[15:12] <richiefrich> harry1989: so you have numberlock on
[15:12] <ActionParsnip> Cabs: no idea man
[15:12] <ActionParsnip> can anone else help
[15:12] <kaudio> yes, me
[15:12] <harry1989> nope...tried it the other way also
[15:13] <bazhang> Vialas1, in channel not PM please
[15:13] <Oli```> Is it possible to disable BulletproofX? I use a beta nvidia driver so I need to recompile the kernel modules every time the kernel is updated. This is made so much harder when BulletproofX blunders in when I restart and tries to assert its authority. I'd rather that if X failed to boot, it dumped me at the login prompt to allow me to recompile the driver.
[15:13] <kalki> qui peut me rappeller le server fr svp ?
[15:13] <Cabs> richiefrich; please help, i am having trouble reading some old vista backups that my friend burnt under restrictive vista format
[15:13] <fyrestrtr> Brandon_: it involves the permissions system, which involves groups and users.
[15:13] <bazhang> !fr | kalki
[15:13] <ActionParsnip> Oli```: tried envyng-gtk?
[15:13] <Cabs> i looked it up and apparently this new kernel is able to open them
[15:13] <Cabs> how do i do that?
[15:13] <kalki> voilaaaaaaaaa merci ubottu
[15:13] <namaku> I have /media/loop (uid=root,gid=root,755). Everytime I try to mount iso image there with "sudo mount -o loop image.iso /media/loop" its permission changed to uid=400,gid=401,700. Now I CAN'T read its content as normal user.
[15:13] <bazhang> Cabs, which new kernel
[15:14] <Brandon_> fyrestrtr, I'm running out of ideas. I need the user www-data to have access to run ssh. What's the easiest way to allow that?
[15:14] <Oli```> ActionParsnip: not interested in envy. I'm happier doing it myself
[15:14] <guntbert> Cabs: did you reboot after installing the new kernel?
[15:14] <exzrael_> Are there any application that makes me able to rightclick an image and resize it?
[15:14] <Cabs> bazhang: guntbert: yes
[15:14] <fyrestrtr> Brandon_: that's a *VERY* *BAD* *IDEA*
[15:14] <bazhang> Cabs, which new kernel
[15:14] <ActionParsnip> namaku: sudo chmod
[15:14] <bazhang> Cabs, answer my question please
[15:15] <richiefrich> Cabs: whats the format. and if they are vista it isnt old
[15:15] <Brandon_> fyrestrtr, yeah I was told that. Am I supposed to create a binary or something and use setuid or something and run that with the program running under www-data?
[15:15] <Cabs> bazhang: here https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/213696 someone says Using kernel version 2.6.26-3-generic from Intrepid Ibex I was able to successfully mount a LiveFS formatted CD (by Windows Vista) with it.
[15:15] <Brandon_> fyrestrtr, I am really confused about this.
[15:16] <fyrestrtr> Brandon_: clearly :) What are you running that needs access to ssh.
[15:16] <harry1989> :s using a cd on the numpad to stop me using the numbers :P
[15:16] <bazhang> Cabs, then #ubuntu+1 not here.
[15:16] <namaku> @ActionParnship: chmod: changing permissions of `/media/loopback/': Read-only file system
[15:16] <Cabs> but there's no one there! bazhang. i already tried the distro upgrade and the kernel is apparently still old
[15:16] <Brandon_> fyrestrtr, PHP script. I use ssh-keys so a main server can access dud servers and run commands on them basically.
[15:16] <Cabs> can you go there?
[15:17] <ActionParsnip> Cabs: It's because Microsoft made their own proprietary file system for burning CDs...typical. Tell him to change the option to Mastered instead of Live File System, or use a different burning program.

[15:20] <Woet> How do I restore everything to the default human theme?
[15:20] <dassouki> i'm on windows right now and i want to login into an ubuntu server, i have access to that server as a root, but for some reason when i try to copy stuff i have to add stuff to my /var/www i have to identify again as a su, which i can't do with WinSCP
[15:20] <ActionParsnip> Woet: lemme websearch
[15:20] <Cabs> ActionParsnip, i heard of a thng named xen to do this, would that work too?
[15:20] <richiefrich> Cabs: i need to know the formats of the files
[15:20] <Woet> ActionParsnip: already did, found 1 result about ubuntu 1.0 or something.
[15:20] <ActionParsnip> dassouki: use sudo, do NOT log into ssh as root
[15:20] <Cabs> sudo apt-get install virtualbox ?

[15:21] <ActionParsnip> Cabs: indeed
[15:21] <guntbert> mike3: I repeat what ActionParsnip told you right after your first question: sudo apt-get --reinstall install apache2
[15:21] <dassouki> ActionParsnip: i'm not logging in as root, but i have admin access, and i can't seem to be able to copy stuff to my /var/www, i really don't want to use cygwin, i'd like to have winscp automate my stuff
[15:21] <richiefrich> Cabs: whats the name of the file

[15:22] <dassouki> ActionParsnip: yes i can write with sudo, but how would i do so using a windows scp/ftp softare
[15:22] <Cabs> richiefrich: what do you mean? the cd won't mount
[15:22] <Vialas> i get this werid problem i havent encounted before
[15:22] <ActionParsnip> Woet: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=337395
[15:22] <richiefrich> Cabs: how are you trying
[15:23] <richiefrich> Cabs: dont say auto mount
[15:23] <ActionParsnip> dassouki: you could give write permission to a user and then when you write as that user you should be ok
[15:23] <richiefrich> i want you to try and mount it with a command
[15:23] <richiefrich> Cabs: ?
[15:23] <dassouki> ActionParsnip: it's not my server, i just have access to it
[15:24] <Cabs> richiefrich: i just stick the cd in, and then click on open cd, then it opens an empty window saying that it won't mount because of the format
[15:24] <ActionParsnip> dassouki: then you'll need them to modify permissions
[15:24] <Cabs> restricted, block etc
[15:24] <dassouki> ActionParsnip: now since i have admin access on the server, cna i do that my self

[15:30] <tctsai> I have a strange problem on desktop effect. Two user login, one can use it, but the other can't. Could anyone give me some idea ?
[15:30] <Jakob_the_liar> can someone tell me real quick whats a program to take movie clips and cut them up so you can isolate a single section ?

[15:30] <Cabs> richiefrich: i am at kernel.org, what do i do there? click on where it says latest stable version?
[15:30] <arvind_khadri> favro, :P
[15:30] <favro> hehe
[15:30] <SliMM> what does the "create wireless network" option do?
[15:31] <arvind_khadri> Cabs, all these would be best answered in #kernel
[15:31] <richiefrich> Cabs: yeah them two
[15:31] <bazhang> Cabs, building custom kernels is not supported here.
[15:31] <arvind_khadri> Cabs, :P
[15:32] <ikonia> Cabs: why do you want to build a custom kernel ?
[15:32] <Armored_Azrael> Upon plugging in my usb hard drive, I hear the drive spin up, but no device entry appears
[15:32] <ikonia> Armored_Azrael: what does syslog say ?
[15:32] <SliMM> and if it does create a wireless network, it doesn't seem to work for me
[15:32] <panther> how do I look at my log files to see what's going on with gnome login
[15:32] <Armored_Azrael> ikonia: onesec, pastebinning
[15:32] <ikonia> panther: what do you mean ?
[15:32] <javb> i`ve installed google-desktop on ubuntu, it runs and it is on system tray but when  i  click on the icon and click on "show my home page" or whatever i need to actually USE google desktop, it wont communicate with the browser.. any idea?
[15:33] <javb> It used to work, but after an update to Ubuntu, now it doesnt
[15:33] <richiefrich> Cabs: http://www.howtoforge.com/kernel_compilation_ubuntu
[15:33] <Cabs> richiefrich: bazhang: what am i specifically trying to do to solve what problem in one sentence so i can go to #kernel ?
[15:33] <Jakob_the_liar> i need something to get a short section of this movie out and make a clip of it
[15:33] <bazhang> javb, installed from where
[15:33] <Jakob_the_liar> whats the name of a video editing app that can do that
[15:33] <Armored_Azrael> ikonia:http://pastebin.com/mfd97fbc
[15:33] <javb> bazhang, downloaded from google webpage, dpkg -i (*deb package)
[15:33] <ikonia> Armored_Azrael: thats not you syslog
[15:33] <richiefrich> Cabs: #kernel wont help you ... look at my link
[15:33] <bazhang> Cabs, go to ##windows
[15:33] <panther> ikonia, I can't login to ubuntu using normal gnome. I have to use failsafe gnome. normal gnome just puts me back to login screen
[15:33] <favro> Jakob_the_liar: try avidemux
[15:33] <richiefrich> bazhang: your not helping
[15:34] <bazhang> richiefrich, that is not supported here.
[15:34] <Nom-> If I want a quick and dirty deb package to install a piece of software in a standard way, are there any tools which can just look at what an installer application does and package that up ?
[15:34] <ikonia> panther: the most common cause for that is either your home dir has no disk space free, or your video card drives are not happy. Check out /var/log/gdm and the log files in that from fail safe more
[15:34] <Armored_Azrael> ikonia: Yes it is, but here's my syslog via the file...
[15:34] <Armored_Azrael> ikonia: http://pastebin.com/m6d88ccae
[15:34] <richiefrich> Cabs: it shows you commands and all
[15:34] <SliMM> please?
[15:35] <richiefrich> Cabs: then you just need to patch
[15:35] <Armored_Azrael> ikonia: I'm pretty sure dmesg just dumps syslog directly.
[15:35] <_Zeus_> panther: what does it tell you when you login?
[15:35] <richiefrich> Cabs: thats one command aas well
[15:35] <ikonia> Ampelbein: dmesg is not the syslog
[15:35] <ikonia> oops
[15:35] <javb> bazhang, downloaded from google webpage, dpkg -i (*deb package)
[15:35] <ikonia> Armored_Azrael: dmesg is not the syslog
[15:35] <Cabs> richiefrich: so i start downloading the latest stable version too from kernel.org?
[15:35] <Armored_Azrael> ikonia: OK, well, I gave you the output from syslog as well
[15:35] <ikonia> Armored_Azrael: yup, just reading
[15:35] <richiefrich> Cabs: did you read my last link
[15:35] <Cabs> i already downloaded the two patches you told me to richiefrich, and i am reading the page you linked
[15:35] <ikonia> Armored_Azrael: hub 6-0:1.0: hub_port_status failed (err = -32)
[15:36] <ikonia> Armored_Azrael: have you tried it in a different port
[15:36] <bazhang> richiefrich, why are you suggesting he compile a new kernel
[15:36] <ikonia> Armored_Azrael: it looks like the port is locked/resetting
[15:36] <Armored_Azrael> ikonia: Yes, I've tried all three ports on my laptop
[15:36] <ikonia> Armored_Azrael: do they all preset that error, but with the port address changing ?
[15:36] <panther> ikonia,  I am faily new to ubuntu and don't really know what you mean by "/var/log/gdm" do I type that in a terminal?
[15:37] <_Zeus_> panther: type "cat /var/log/gdm|tail"
[15:37] <richiefrich> bazhang: he needs to patch to mount a cd burned in vista
[15:37] <Cabs> bazhang, i think it's because there's a patch for the unopenable microsoft vista files
[15:37] <ikonia> panther: that is a directory, in there are text files you can view, they contain logs
[15:37] <panther> Zeus, nothing just puts me back to login
[15:37] <bazhang> richiefrich, then feel free to PM him.
[15:37] <richiefrich> Cabs: no it is an unsupported cd format
[15:37] <richiefrich> bazhang: i can help him here
[15:37] <javb> any idea with the google-desktop issue?
[15:38] <_Zeus_> javb: what is the google desktop issue?

[15:38] <_Zeus_> javb: have you set your default browser correctly?
[15:38] <richiefrich> Cabs: yes

[15:39] <javb> _Zeus_, where do i set it?
[15:39] <Cabs> richiefrich: i am not on edgy though, i'm on hardy what do i do then?
[15:39] <javb> ikonia, it was the debian
[15:39] <Armored_Azrael> ikonia: My usb has worked, this device has not worked before, just got it.

[15:44] <C1> arvind_khadri, yes, it is a root partition )
[15:44] <Vialas> hi
[15:44] <xbxbxbxb> Is it correct to say that firestarter is just a config tool for netfilter/iptables? So that whatever I do with firestarter, it has the same effect as doing it in a terminal with "iptables ..."?
[15:44] <vladuz976> I would like to add a terminal launcher to the right-click menu. how can I achieve that?
[15:44] <_Zeus_> xbxbxbxb: yes
[15:44] <dorito> tctsai you need to set up with grafx card driver first
[15:44] <hwilde> ikonia, /var/log/auth.log says it
[15:44] <xbxbxbxb> _Zeus_: ty
[15:44] <_Zeus_> np
[15:44] <arvind_khadri> C1, then boot into a livecd and fsck it ...
[15:44] <ikonia> hwilde: thats it ?
[15:45] <mlester> Whitor|: in server I dont have a desktop how do u do it in cl
[15:45] <skeeel> i have problem when i switch fullscreen/window on opengl using app , it scramble my screens , mplayer does it too when i use gl rendering but work fine with xv
[15:45] <ikonia> hwilde: maybe its onl su failures that get logged in more details
[15:45] <ikonia> hwilde: at least you've found it
[15:45] <arvind_khadri> !fsck | C1
[15:45] <tctsai> dorito: but in my computer, another user could use it well
[15:45] <C1> arvind_khadri, yes, ok..
[15:45] <Vialas> hi everyone
[15:45] <_Zeus_> hmm... is the -F new?
[15:46] <Cabs> richiefrich: in www.kernel.org can you give me the link of the kernel i want to install to include it in the command listed after step 2?
[15:46] <dorito> tctsai make sure the driver is enabled System>administration>Hardware drivers
[15:46] <C1> thanks
[15:46] <panther> richiefrich, I tail -f log in cat /var/log/gdm and this is what it said "tail: no files remaining"
[15:46] <ikonia> _Zeus_: force, old
[15:46] <andycan> I cant launch firefox2 anymore, i did uninstall of firefox3 and then installed ff2
[15:46] <arvind_khadri> Cabs, richiefrich will you both take this to #kernel
[15:46] <C1> "sudo shutdown -F -r now" will force a reboot and a filesystem check; - it meens only check wihout any changes to partition ? )\
[15:46] <tctsai> ikonia: there is no driver in there, in my labtop
[15:46] <usuario> qu perttondsaj
[15:47] <andycan> I renamed the profile folder on my home (.mozilla) so it would create a new one, but it doesnt
[15:47] <ikonia> tctsai: what ?
[15:47] <arvind_khadri> C1, yeah
[15:47] <_Zeus_> panther: you need to put cat <filename> before the |
[15:47] <Jakob_the_liar> how do i get avidemux sound working?
[15:47]  * Cabs goes to #kernel (richiefrich)
[15:47] <favro> andycan: in a terminal type  firefox-2
[15:47] <tctsai> ikonia: in my x61, the first user could use normal effect well
[15:47] <Jakob_the_liar> it did what i wanted it to do but theres no sound
[15:47] <richiefrich> Cabs: bah
[15:47] <tctsai> ikonia: but the second user failled
[15:47] <ikonia> !away > PV_Away
[15:48] <andycan> favro: i tried that, but it doesnt launch it, it just completes the command with no output
[15:48] <panther> zeus, what would the filename be I type dir  ":0.log	:0.log.1  :0.log.2  :0.log.3  :0.log.4	:20.log  :21.log"
[15:48] <Cabs> richiefrich: which kernel do i want to get?
[15:48] <Gecko> Hey, can I somehow "upgrade" my kernel from 32bit to 64bit? My processor supports it.
[15:48] <_Zeus_> panther: use 0.log
[15:48] <ikonia> Cabs: if I can just interupt you for a second
[15:48] <jrib> Gecko: reinstall
[15:48] <Seveas> Gecko, yes, by reinstalling :)
[15:48] <richiefrich> Cabs: http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/v2.6/linux-<IP_ADDRESS>.tar.bz2
[15:48] <Cabs> ikonia?
[15:48] <ikonia> Cabs: rather than messing around with custom kernels etc etc, is there no other way you can get at the data you want ?
[15:48] <Copolycube> hello
[15:48] <bazhang> richiefrich, likely not the best course
[15:48] <Gecko> Seveas: aw, come on, that can
[15:49] <_Zeus_> hi
[15:49] <ikonia> Cabs: messing around with kernels is going to cause you a lot lot lot of pain
[15:49] <Gecko> Seveas: aw, come on, that can't be the only solution!
[15:49] <harry1989> another problem... cant seem to be able to install Liteon sk 1789 keyboard >.<
[15:49] <Copolycube> anyone could help me with mkfs ?
[15:49] <favro> andycan: try  ls /usr/bin | grep firefox
[15:49] <ikonia> Copolycube: ask the question
[15:49] <richiefrich> bazhang: again not helping.. he hs no choice
[15:49] <Seveas> Gecko, it is though :)
[15:49] <Copolycube> I"m trying to format a usbkey into an NetBSD FS
[15:49] <Copolycube> to install it
[15:49] <Cabs> well, the thing is, if i tell my friend that basically he has to tell everybody he knows who saves in vista to burn cds in not the default format
[15:49] <bazhang> richiefrich, suggesting he build a custom kernel is a bit too hard for him.
[15:49] <Copolycube> (Im using gutsy)
[15:49] <andycan> favro: it outputs firefox-2
[15:50] <tctsai> dorito: there is no driver in there, in my labtop
[15:50] <Cabs> he won't like it
[15:50] <Gecko> Seveas: but i'm not interested in running 64, except for just the kernel. I want 64bit support in my kernel, nothing else
[15:50] <richiefrich> bazhang: ahh it is a few steps it isnt hard
[15:50] <dorito> tctsai then you need to re-install it
[15:50] <ikonia> Cabs: I think thats a better option than trying to mess around with custom kernels
[15:50] <richiefrich> bazhang: i personally think everone should know how
[15:50] <bazhang> richiefrich, for you yes, but not for him
[15:50] <Seveas> Gecko, that really makes no sense
[15:50] <c03> I accidentally overwritten my MBR with a Windows Installation
[15:50] <andycan> favro: I just tried the command with sudo and it worked? Is there a problem with my home dir permissions?
[15:50] <c03> How do I change it back to grub ? =/
[15:50] <ikonia> richiefrich: well, thats a big ask for a new user
[15:51] <richiefrich> c03: boot to livecd
[15:51] <ikonia> !grub> c03
[15:51] <Cabs> richiefrich: is this safe to do?
[15:51] <richiefrich> c03: reinstall grub
[15:51] <teo_> σεργιε?
[15:51] <richiefrich> Cabs: yeah
[15:51] <Seveas> !gr | teo_
[15:51] <richiefrich> Cabs: not like you will overwriting your other kernels
[15:52] <harry1989> richiefrich do you know how to install liteon sk 1789 keyboard?
[15:52] <ikonia> Cabs: I'd strongly advise you not to follow this through and look at other ways to get at the data
[15:52] <ikonia> Cabs: I'm sure this patch will be highlighted for backporting, but at that time  your system may be damaged by what your doing
[15:52] <richiefrich> ikonia: as i said that should be the 1st thing you learn on linux
[15:52] <favro> andycan: do you have a .mozilla/firefox/profile.ini file?
[15:52] <richiefrich> Cabs: your not root
[15:52] <favro> in home
[15:52] <richiefrich> Cabs: in yur pm
[15:52] <ikonia> richiefrich: thats our opion - most others would disagree
[15:52] <tctsai> dorito: but in my labtop, the other user could use it well
[15:52] <bazhang> Cabs, such as finding a friend with a vista computer and transferring to usb; compiling a kernel is not simple nor quick
[15:53] <richiefrich> ikonia: the lazy ones would yes
[15:53] <xbxbxbxb> how can I find out which eth device is connected? I can see both but I have no information what device is actually connected
[15:53] <ikonia> richiefrich: not at all, walking before running, think about the target person your talking to
[15:53] <ikonia> xbxbxbxb: unplug the cable and you should see eth* has gone down in the syslog
[15:53] <godlygeek> mplayer is playing sound for me only with alsa audio, not pulse, though every other app can use pulse properly, and though mplayer does connect successfully to the pulse server... how can i track this down?
[15:53] <tctsai> dorito: the other user in my labtop could use normal effect well
[15:53] <andycan> Someone help me, i can only launch firefox with root permissions. When i try launching it with normal rights it will crash back to desktop.
[15:53] <xbxbxbxb> ikonia: I try, ty
[15:53] <richiefrich> ikonia: i dont know him, and you are all capable of doing it, but when you put him down i see why you discourge it..
[15:54] <richiefrich> ikonia: keep the little man down
[15:54] <tctsai> dorito: but when I create the second one, it failed to use normal effect.
[15:54]  * richiefrich sighs
[15:54] <axalto> ALAYINIZIN AMK
[15:54] <ikonia> richiefrich: I'm not trying to put him down, I'm trying to help him in the long term
[15:54] <panther> !pastebin
[15:54] <richiefrich> ikonia: no your..
[15:54] <bazhang> richiefrich, no one is putting him down; we are trying to find the fastest solution, and compiling a kernel is not it.
[15:54] <ikonia> richiefrich: I'm all for learning, but it's like asking a new guy to mechanics to build a ferrari engine, rather than a lawn moer
[15:54] <richiefrich> bazhang: i disagree
[15:55] <Cabs> richiefrich: http://kubuntu.pastebin.com/d94aecc
[15:55] <Dr_willis> I dont even want to mess with the kernels any more. :)

[15:57] <Copolycube> and mkfs.netbsd doesn't exist
[15:57] <Dr_willis> Theaxiom,  using gparted would be the easiest way. make a fat16 partition and format it.

[15:57] <geev> i searched  to  synaptic package manager i found gcc is installed so were i can write and compile my c program?
[15:57] <harry1989> does anyone know how to install liteon sk 1789 keyboard?
[15:57] <Dr_willis> geev,  where? you can keep youir code anywhere in the users home directory.
[15:58] <Theaxiom> Dr_willis: For some reason my new PC does not like to boot FAT32 ?
[15:58] <Dr_willis> geev,  you may wish to install  the 'build-essential' package to get the whole C 'compiler' and other tools
[15:58] <nikhil> hi
[15:58] <teo_> hi σεργιε?
[15:58] <Dr_willis> Theaxiom,  Hmm for a bootable usb thumb drive.  most of the guides i see say use fat16.  a lot can depend on the exact Pc/bios i imagine
[15:59] <Vialas> hi nikhil
[15:59] <bazhang> teo_, english please
[15:59] <bazhang> teo_, or /join #ubuntu-gr
[15:59] <teo_> οκ
[16:00] <nikhil> i have installed Linux Multimedia Studio (equivalent to Fruity Loops in Damned Windows).  After installing (couldnt find repositories for same), i cant make where to find the application?
[16:00] <Denise> a bootable usb key instead of a cd?
[16:00] <Copolycube> Denise, yes
[16:00] <panther> ikonia,  here is the log file. :0.log http://paste.ubuntu.com/41271/ what does or should this tell me
[16:00] <Denise> ah
[16:00] <Denise> u could copy ur grub on a usb key?
[16:00] <zethero1> why does ls usb not work ?
[16:00] <Cabs> ok here's what i'm going to do
[16:00] <favro> lsusb
[16:00] <Cabs> ikonia.
[16:00] <Dr_willis> zethero1,  you mean 'lsusb' command ?
[16:01] <Copolycube> Denise, I just want to format it
[16:01] <zethero1> Dr_willis: aha ... maybe thats why -- ha
[16:01] <Denise> i was talking to myself
[16:01] <Cabs> you say it's just a matter of taking the cds to a computer with vista and then get the files onto a usb flashdrive?
[16:01] <Theaxiom> Dr_willis: Why can't I delete the partition on the usb drive from gparted?
[16:01] <Dr_willis> Theaxiom,  just a guess.. its mounted..
[16:01] <Denise> i m thinking about being sure when using these tools before installing my new hdd
[16:01] <Theaxiom> Dr_willis: ah-ha! lol
[16:02]  * Cabs closes terminal
[16:02] <Denise> about safe moves in case things go wrong

[16:02] <mamr> I'm trying to activate dma
[16:02] <harry1989> does anyone know how to install liteon sk 1789 keyboard?
[16:02] <Cabs> my friend needs his photos for tomorrow night too
[16:02] <mamr> but all I get when entering sudo hdparm /dev/dvd is:  HDIO_GET_DMA failed: Inappropriate ioctl for device
[16:03] <mamr> what can I do?
[16:03] <Cabs> he's also had some trouble with some dvds
[16:03] <nikhil> after installing any application, where to find them?
[16:03] <richiefrich> Cabs: cd /usr/src/ ; wget  http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/v2.6/linux-<IP_ADDRESS>.tar.bz2 ; tar xjf linux-<IP_ADDRESS>.tar.bz2 ; ls -la  ; ln -s linux-<IP_ADDRESS> linux ; cd linux ;zcat /proc/config.gz > /usr/src/linux/.config ; wget http://downloads.sourceforge.net/linux-udf/udf-0.9.8.tar.gz?modtime=1077494400&big_mirror=0 ; tar xzf udf-0.9.8.tar.gz ; cd udf-0.9.8
[16:03] <Denise> ah can i practice gparted on a usb key?
[16:03] <Denise> lol
[16:03] <Cabs> richiefrich: ^
[16:03] <Dr_willis> mamr,  how do you even knwo that dma is not enabled on it? Most devices use the scsi subssytem these days. and dma should be enabled for them by default.
[16:03] <richiefrich> Cabs: i see
[16:03] <mamr> I thought so
[16:03] <Dr_willis> Denise,  you can play with it all day.. just dont 'apply/write' the changes.
[16:03] <Cabs> i will return later on during breaks but this is not my computer nad my friend is pushing me
[16:04] <mamr> because dvds are not running correctly
[16:04] <nikhil> Guys!! any help?
[16:04] <mamr> although they do using another distribution on the same computer
[16:04] <Denise> ok
[16:04] <Cabs> i apologize, didn't mean to waste your time richiefrich, i do want to do it though, so this won't have to happen in the future, it's ludicrous that i should tell him to ask his friends not to burn anything on the default format their fcomputers burn
[16:04] <Denise> cuz once it is done u cant erase it?
[16:04] <prince_jammys> nikhil: you can't find it in the menus? what did you install?
[16:04] <Denise> evnen on ausb key?
[16:05] <richiefrich> Cabs: no he can change the format
[16:05] <mijue> hello ,everyone
[16:05] <richiefrich> Cabs: when he burns it on vosta

[16:05] <Dr_willis> Denise,  once changes are written to disk... they are written to the disk... :)
[16:05] <Cabs> richiefrich: he no longer has vista
[16:05] <richiefrich> Cabs: but this patch will help you

[16:05] <Jakob_the_liar> would mpd get in the way of it?
[16:05] <Cabs> richiefrich: i do want to patch it but i got to do it later
[16:05] <ikonia> Nom-: it's available in the 32bit version
[16:05] <bazhang> nikhil, ubuntustudio?
[16:06] <Cabs> back later
[16:06] <nikhil> no, it is lmms, not ubuntustudio
[16:06] <zethero1> I just got a USB TV device and dunno where to start ...
[16:06] <zethero1> please help
[16:06] <bazhang> nikhil, how is this related to ubuntu
[16:06] <Nom-> ikonia: I need it in the 64-bit version... there's a package for many others :/
[16:06] <prince_jammys> nikhil: dpkg -S lmms | grep /bin    (will show you executable files it installed)
[16:06] <Gnea> zethero1: step one: plug it in :)
[16:07] <ikonia> Nom-: not sure it's available as ubuntu is not really multi-lib
[16:07] <boggystudios> After installing the official nvidia kernal module the scroll feature on the side of my track pad doesn't work any more.  What controlls that?

[16:07] <Gnea> zethero1: also, what make/model is the card?
[16:07] <panther> can anyone tell me what this log file tells me and why I can't log in using normal gnome -  http://paste.ubuntu.com/41271/
[16:08] <Nom-> hmm that did the trick tho.. solved the whinge this installer had
[16:08] <prince_jammys> nikhil: also 'man lmms' should say.
[16:08] <tctsai> dorito: looks like it doesn't fixed, for intel card
[16:08] <nikhil> it says "No manual entry for lmms

[16:10] <andycan> After updating from ff3 beta to release, i could not open ff anymore, i got gnome auth warnings when trying to launch firefox. launching it with root rights worked. I had to remove my old profile and create a new one and chown .mozilla back to my user. What a shi*ty experience.
[16:10] <Gnea> panther: it says nothing about not being able to login. did you type the password correct?
[16:10] <Theaxiom> Does it always take awhile for UNetbootin to extract casper/filesystem.squashfs to a USB drive?
[16:10] <CartoonCat> I am trying to burn with basero, but it errors with "burn process in progress" but i have nothing going. Is there a way to tell if something is hung or atempting to burn?
[16:11] <zethero1> Gnea: AnyTV USB 2.0 ATSC & Analog Receiver
[16:11] <andycan> also after that my search plugin doesnt function
[16:11] <intangir> why is browsing the .gvfs directory so much slower than browing gvfs mounted directories?
[16:11] <jrib> andycan: how did you update?
[16:11] <panther> Gnea, yeah I can login using failsafe gnome but not gnome
[16:11] <Theaxiom> panther: What happens when you try to boot normally?
[16:11] <panther> gnome just kicks me to login screen
[16:12] <harry1989> does anyone know how to install liteon sk 1789 keyboard? I tried installing thru System > Preferences > Keyboard > Keyboard Model selection but it isnt in there
[16:12] <andycan> jrib: via update manager. I later tried to uninstall and purged it. It didnt create .mozilla under my home dir either, so that made it crash all the time. With sudo i could create a new profile but im missing search plugin and when i try to access preferences that shi*ty thing just crashes. its pissing me off...
[16:13] <jrib> andycan: what version of ubuntu?
[16:13] <zethero1> Gnea: says on the manual Package Includes AUTV001 AnyTV-ATSC Stick
[16:13] <Theaxiom> harry1989: Did you try: http://www.google.com/search?source=ig&hl=en&rlz=&=&q=liteon+sk+1789+ubuntu+install&btnG=Google+Search
[16:14] <harry1989> yup and variants
[16:14] <andycan> jrib: 8.04 hardy with 2.6.24-21
[16:14] <Theaxiom> harry1989: What is not working about your keyboard?
[16:14] <bazhang> nikhil, what is lmms
[16:14] <panther> i am in failsafe gnome now, I have NEVER been able to login normally. It has always just kicked me back to login screen
[16:14] <jrib> andycan: want to purge, delete ~/.mozilla/, and install again so we can see the errors?
[16:14] <uffo> which is best, klikclient or Autopackage for finally using portableapps like Mac and Windows
[16:15] <andycan> jrib: sure
[16:15] <bazhang> uffo, best to install from repos
[16:15] <toyotafosgate> hey guys i got a huge issue hoping someone could be kind enough to help

[16:16] <Dr_willis> harry1989,  'multi media keys' :)
[16:16] <toyotafosgate> Theaxiom: thanks anyway
[16:16] <uffo> one day portable system must come, Mac and Windows supports this system long time
[16:16] <toyotafosgate> does anybody else know anything about raid1 in ubuntu
[16:16] <toyotafosgate> ?
[16:16] <Dr_willis> !raid
[16:16] <nikhil> lmms is Linux Multimedia Studio for creating your own music and loops
[16:16] <uffo> but wich is best
[16:17] <harry1989> not sure what you mean Dr_willis
[16:17] <harry1989> and :s @ raid
[16:17] <Dr_willis> harry1989,  those special keys are called 'multimedia keys' in most discussions. not 'function keys'
[16:17] <harry1989> *flashback to school days*
[16:17] <harry1989> ah thanks
[16:17] <salty> when installing the minimal ubuntu what is the base sound enviroment that is installed?
[16:17] <andycan> jrib: this is what i get when trying to launch firefox-3.0 from terminal: http://pastebin.com/d4fa77101
[16:17] <harry1989> was on the tip of my tongue lol
[16:17] <toyotafosgate> ubottu: i've looked at almost everything i can find regarding raid but i can't find how to bring one drive back and mount it
[16:18] <toyotafosgate> i don't mind breaking the mirror but i just don't wanna risk losing the data
[16:18] <Theaxiom> Does anybody here know what pulseaudio does for me? All I know is that it screws up skype, and if I kill it, everything works perfect. Would it be ok to uninstall it?
[16:18] <Dr_willis> harry1989,  and i do recall some apps to bind them to specific features.. but i havent used any in ages. Ubuntu seems to be the best distro out ive seen for allready having them configured.
[16:18] <toyotafosgate> i've read that changing the type id using fdisk will work
[16:18] <harry1989> ah so cant really install them? just bind the keys and hope they work? lol
[16:18] <jrib> andycan: you can usually ignore warnings.  Does it start?
[16:18] <toyotafosgate> but i can't find anything that tells me it won't erase the data on the drive
[16:18] <andycan> jrib: no
[16:18] <andycan> jrib: that warning is the only thing it outputs and then it stops
[16:19] <jrib> andycan: open a new shell, then run firefox again
[16:19] <panther> is it alright to continually use failsafe gnome instead of normal gnome, since I am unable to boot normally using gnome
[16:20] <andycan> jrib: i get same output?
[16:20] <nikhil> hey guys got lmms in repositories!!
[16:20] <bazhang> nikhil, is that an ubuntu item?
[16:20] <bazhang> !info lmms
[16:20] <toyotafosgate> anybody have any experience with raid1 in ubuntu?
[16:20] <prince_jammys> nikhil: you mean you hadn't installed it from repositiories?
[16:21] <nikhil> yes, precisely, downloaded from some site
[16:21] <prince_jammys> thanks for not mentioning that.
[16:21] <harry1989> Dr_willis, found it under System > Preferences > Keyboard shortcuts
[16:21] <harry1989> xD
[16:21] <jrib> andycan: k, (depending on how you use your system you may have had an old shell with a stale $SESSION_MANAGER value).  Try 'firefox -safe-mode'
[16:21] <bazhang> nikhil, thus your problems
[16:21] <harry1989> thanks lol
[16:21] <dany96> hi
[16:21] <toyotafosgate> anybody have any experience with raid1 in ubuntu?
[16:21] <nikhil> thanks everyone
[16:21] <nikhil> lol
[16:22] <dany96> I've got a problem with ubuntu. can you help me?
[16:22] <andycan> jrib: still same output even with -safe-mode
[16:22] <bazhang> !raid
[16:22] <Remus> &server
[16:22] <jrib> andycan: has this persisted after a reboot?
[16:22] <andycan> jrib: yes
[16:23] <Aruza> im having a problem with automake when making vqadmin. http://fpaste.org/aste/5425. any help?
[16:23] <bazhang> toyotafosgate, all I know of raid is in that link :)
[16:23] <dany96> i've installed ubuntu with wubi, and it works at full sped. but after updates it works extremely slow.
[16:23] <zethero1> Gnea: you still there?
[16:23] <jrib> andycan: does 'firefox -ProfileManager' let you create a profile?
[16:23] <andycan> jrib: nope, same gnome ui auth error
[16:24] <bazhang> toyotafosgate, your best bet is to ask the channel every so often
[16:24] <toyotafosgate> alright
[16:24] <toyotafosgate> thanks
[16:24] <cup0beans> hi, i was wondering how i remove the ubuntu logo from the top panel in gnome and get the gnome foot up there
[16:24] <toyotafosgate> do you think there is a better channel for it?
[16:24] <harry1989> lol like i did with the kb problem xD
[16:24] <andycan> jrib: if i chown .mozilla dir under my $home to my user i can launch firefox but all the plugins dont work and it crashes now and then... ff2 has this same issue too, i tried downgrading
[16:25] <dashnu> cup0beans: just remove it and add the other menu
[16:25] <zethero1> can someone help me setup my USB TV card?
[16:26] <toyotafosgate> bazhang: do you think there is a better channel for it?
[16:26] <cup0beans> dashnu, still uses the ubuntu logo
[16:26] <prince_jammys> cup0beans: the name of the icon is 'distributor-logo' or 'start-here', located somewhere in /usr/share/icons. if you have a custom theme, you could replace it there. otherwise, i think you have to change have the image file in /usr/share/icons point to the gnome logo file.
[16:26] <jrib> andycan: but you were trying to launch it before with out an existing .mozilla right?
[16:27] <toyotafosgate> anybody here have some experience with raid...?
[16:27] <andycan> jrib: yes
[16:27] <Theaxiom> Does anyone know if it is safe to uninstall pulseaudio?
[16:27] <harry1989> im off now
[16:27] <harry1989> thanks for everyones help
[16:27] <prince_jammys> cup0beans: perhaps there's an easy way with the gui, but i don't know it, for that specific icon.
[16:28] <bazhang> toyotafosgate, is that a server?
[16:28] <uffo> which is best, klikclient or Autopackage for finally using portableapps like Mac and Windows has
[16:28] <Theaxiom> Pulseaudio blocks my microphone input into my PC, does anyone know what it is for?
[16:28] <bazhang> uffo, neither
[16:28] <salty> i did Theaxiom
[16:28] <jrib> andycan: 'ps -ef | grep firefox' return any running instances?
[16:29] <uffo> why
[16:29] <Theaxiom> salty: What?
[16:29] <salty> removed pulseaudio
[16:29] <andycan> jrib: yes, one
[16:29] <Theaxiom> salty: Does everything work perfect/better?
[16:29] <bazhang> uffo, that is really outside of the scope of this channel; join #ubuntu-offtopic for more
[16:29] <jrib> andycan: kill it
[16:30] <dashnu> cup0beans: ohh yea right.. Maybe changing the system icon theme will change it
[16:30] <uffo> No its not it is for what i want for ubvuntu
[16:30] <Theaxiom> !skype
[16:30] <salty> the apps that i use seem to work fine without it
[16:30] <will02> im lookin to create a radio station that would stream music over the http port so i can throw a party using multiple stereos. i cant remotely control the server, but i can ssh. does anyone know how to do something like this?
[16:30] <dashnu> cup0beans: i use the gorllia theme I have a gorilla head
[16:30] <andycan> jrib: uhh, never mind - it was "grep firefox" process - not the "firefox"
[16:31] <cadsmack> where to I find interesting and up-to date news on ubuntu?
[16:31] <jrib> andycan: k.  Try 'firefox --verbose'.  Maybe it will yield something more
[16:31] <Theaxiom> salty: Thank you
[16:31] <andycan> jrib: nope. nothing - still the same gnome ui auth error
[16:31] <bastid_raZor> cadsmack; ubuntu.com

[16:32] <jrib> andycan: 'strace firefox' ?
[16:32] <cup0beans> dashnu, how do i do that? mind if i pm?
[16:32] <zethero1> can someone help me with my USB TV Tuner?
[16:32] <andycan> jrib: wait, i think its a issue within my home dir not the firefox, i cant create folder in it either - gives me no space left on device
[16:32] <andycan> jrib: although i have 60gb free?
[16:32] <jrib> andycan: ah
[16:33] <uffo> which is best for Ubuntu, klikclient or Autopackage for finally using portableapps like Mac and Windows
[16:33] <bazhang> uffo, that is offtopic here
[16:33] <uffo> no its not
[16:33] <jrib> andycan: try emptying trash just to see if it helps
[16:33] <bazhang> !best | uffo
[16:33] <Theaxiom> !ot | uffo
[16:34] <bazhang> uffo, ask in those channels not here.
[16:34] <Tarandus> Hello
[16:34] <Tarandus> on a fresh Hardy desktop machine, resuming from hibernation does not work
[16:34] <andycan> jrib: whoa, i emptied it and i can create a new dir in my home again, ill see if it fixed firefox
[16:34] <Tarandus> I mean, I just get the login screen when I'm expecting for it to ask for my password
[16:35] <Tarandus> my other machine does this after updating the kernel, but this does it all the time
[16:35] <cro> hi all
[16:35] <bdunlap> bazhang, are you an op for offtopic?
[16:35] <toyotafosgate> bazhang: yes it is a server
[16:35] <andycan> jrib: thanks, i got it working again!
[16:35] <jrib> andycan: cool
[16:36] <cro> i have a problem, few seconds after i log in to ubuntu it automatically logs out, second time i log in its ok, help please..
[16:36] <andycan> jrib: although there are these warnings it launches with a breeze and search is functioning again. Cool
[16:36] <bazhang> bdunlap, join #ubuntu-ops
[16:36] <cadsmack> so what's the safe way to update an out of date debian system to a current ubuntu distribution keeping packages and configs and data intact where possible?
[16:36] <zethero1> anyone?
[16:36] <bazhang> toyotafosgate, there is #ubuntu-server ; though some people here may know (they seem to be absent at the moment though) :)
[16:37] <jrib> cadsmack: reinstall
[16:37] <cadsmack> but I have many packages installed
[16:37] <tyyrant27> what is up guys?
[16:37] <Theaxiom> jrib: cadsmack: Reinstalling will overwrite most everything.
[16:37] <MolePrince> Hello.  I am trying to use dual monitors on an nviaida 7800GT.  Xorg log shows CRT-0 and CRT-1, however xrandr only shows CRT-0.  Any ideas please?
[16:37] <cadsmack> hm
[16:37] <jrib> !clone | cadsmack
[16:38] <mlester> question: I am trying to join my computer to a workgroup and I changed the smb.conf to the correct workgroup but when I do smbtree the wrong workgroup comes up
[16:38] <mlester> any ideas
[16:38] <jrib> cadsmack: you'd have to tweak that a little bit I imagine
[16:38] <richard> !automate
[16:38] <cadsmack> aye
[16:38] <cadsmack> there are many packages from the debian tree that are likely to have been renamed
[16:38] <zethero1> are my messages even appearing here?
[16:38] <Theaxiom> Ubottu is like an IRC wiki, how amazing
[16:38] <jrib> cadsmack: and the other stuff like your /home, just backup.  If it's on its own partition, then just keep it and mount it on ubuntu
[16:39] <Theaxiom> zethero1: What is your question?
[16:39] <bazhang> Theaxiom, its very useful to /msg ubottu info packagename
[16:39] <zethero1> Theaxiom: oh good to know that my posts are getting through ,.... I need help getting my USB TV Tuner to work
[16:39] <cadsmack> aye, I'll back things up
[16:40] <Theaxiom> zethero1: Sorry I do not have any experience in that field unfortunately. Perhaps someone else could assist you with that matter.
[16:40] <zethero1> Theaxiom: ok thanks
[16:40] <mlester> sl dkd anyone see my question
[16:41] <mlester> so did anyone*
[16:41] <Gnea> zethero1: sorry about that, didn't see your previous response... everytime you type a name, it adds some useless characters to it, preventing nick highlighting from working correctly...  < zethero1> Theaxiom: ok thanks  <--- like that
[16:41] <zethero1> Gnea: oh I see ... sorry
[16:41] <jkush1> hey, i have a real simple question if anyone might be able to help
[16:41] <Gnea> zethero1: is there anyway you can fix that?
[16:42] <Gnea> jkush1: ask away
[16:42] <MathijsNET> hi
[16:42] <mlester> smb.conf workgroup is apt833 but when I do smbtree it looks up workgroup
[16:42] <zethero1> Gnea: you mean take the 1 away?
[16:42] <mlester> not apt833
[16:42] <zethero1> Gnea:  dunno how to do that
[16:42] <Theaxiom> I followed the tutorial here (https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/FromUSBStick), and used UNetbootin. I try to boot off the USB disk and it says it is not a bootable disk. I tried both FAT16 and FAT32. Can anyone help me please?
[16:42] <jkush1> let's say i download  eclipse. normally, when i would this for linux, i would put it in my home directory or something. where should i be placing these files?
[16:42] <Gnea> mlester: smbtree doesn't assume smb.conf settings. you have to explicitly tell it 'apt833'
[16:43] <jkush1> i read somewhere thjat maybe bin?
[16:43] <Theaxiom> jkush1: sudo apt-get install eclipse
[16:43] <Theaxiom> jkush1: It will auto-download and install for you
[16:43] <mlester> ahh gotcha is that the same when mounting a cifs filesystem
[16:43] <Gnea> jkush1: no need, it's already in the repositories
[16:43] <jkush1> but i have a licensed version of zse
[16:43] <zethero1> Gnea: did you find anything about the Tuner?
[16:43] <Gnea> zethero1: no, what's the make/model again?
[16:44] <zethero1> Gnea: I found some info here: http://www.cooldrives.com/anatusbadfor.html
[16:44] <MathijsNET> wtf
[16:44] <jkush1> so lets say i need to download zend's version...
[16:44] <xtreme88> hi can someone help me with ubuntu installation?

[16:45] <alan___> Hello
[16:45] <tyyrant27> anyone have info on acpi?  my laptop only boots by battery one time then I have to plug it in to boot if i use the shutdown; however, if I pull that battery I can boot from battery repeatedly.
[16:45] <alan___> ?
[16:45] <virtuald> killingartist: try running apt-get update, then try again
[16:45] <Gnea> zethero1: that's a tough one, since it's so generic
[16:45] <Gnea> !tv | zethero1
[16:45] <sipior> KillingArtist: does it work if you leave off the "-3.0"?
[16:46] <Gnea> zethero1: i would recommend checking that website out and digging around
[16:46] <jrib> sipior: wfm :/
[16:46] <xtreme88> I had ubuntu and xp dualboot setup and the I had to format the xp partition to reinstall it but now the boot manager doesn't show up anymore and i cant get into ubuntu..what can I do?
[16:46] <zethero1> Gnea: ok will do
[16:46] <GleepGlop> cd's are not automounting for me in gnome
[16:46] <salty> and xine
[16:46] <jrib> sipior: what exactly did you enter?
[16:46] <jesus_christoffe> hello
[16:46] <prince_jammys> spx2: weird. it works over here
[16:46] <sipior> jrib: sorry? what's wfm?
[16:46] <alan___> xtreme: you'd  have to reinstall ubuntu...
[16:46] <Gnea> tyyrant27: tried turning acpi off?
[16:46] <jkush1> anyone know how i can change the resolution so its not so big? It's only allowing me up to 1024. is there a function i can use to query the disk info>?
[16:46] <jesus_christoffe> i love amy diamond
[16:47] <xtreme88> Is there no other way?
[16:47] <jrib> sipior: sorry, meant to send to spx2
[16:47] <tyyrant27> yes
[16:47] <jkush1> * driver info
[16:47] <alan___> xtreme: you could aslo try and reinstall GRUB
[16:47] <MathijsNET> xtreame88
[16:47] <bazhang> jesus_christoffe, do you have a support question?
[16:47] <MathijsNET> try a live cd
[16:47] <skellar> Hi all
[16:47] <xtreme88> alan___:how do I reinstall GRUB?
[16:47] <jesus_christoffe> can i get a shit for turning my wireless shit on when off
[16:47] <KillingArtist> sipior: if i leave "-3.0" he tells me that it is the latest version... even after an apt-get update... but i have only 2.x installed
[16:47] <Gnea> tyyrant27: so it's doing the same thing, whether or not acpi is on or off?
[16:47] <xtreme88> alan___: I have files on my ubuntu partition that I need to keep.
[16:47] <tyyrant27> gnea: yes
[16:47] <sipior> KillingArtist: are you not running 8.04 then?
[16:47] <bazhang> !language | jesus_christoffe
[16:47] <Gnea> !language | jesus_christoffe
[16:47] <tyyrant27> gnea:  haha so it isn't acpi then...
[16:47] <GleepGlop> cd's are not automounting for me in gnome. can someone help?
[16:48] <Gnea> tyyrant27: right :)
[16:48] <tyyrant27> so what would cause it
[16:48] <Gnea> tyyrant27: have you checked the battery and power cord connections and make sure they're free of dust and other grime that can accumulate?
[16:48] <prince_jammys> spx2: try #screen
[16:48] <tyyrant27> gnea: yeah
[16:48] <KillingArtist> sipior: ubuntu version?? no.. i think it's 7.x... that was the latest version i had on cd...
[16:48] <mlester> gnea: I am trying  this sudo mount -t cifs //ookami/share /media/share and when I navigate to that directory I get ls: reading directory .. Permission denied
[16:49] <tyyrant27> Gnea: it runs fine on power.  and battery
[16:49] <alan___> xtreme88: you would have download the GRUB again, and if you still use windows just download the .exe file
[16:49] <alan___> http://www.gnu.org/software/grub/
[16:49] <Gnea> tyyrant27: what make/model is the laptop?
[16:49] <tyyrant27> alienware area51m
[16:49] <xtreme88> alan___: thanks a bunch i'll try that now. hope it's not difficult.
[16:49] <jesus_christoffe> can i get help by turning my wireless device on? anybody
[16:49] <alan___> xtreme: search for WinGRUB, it would be a bit easier
[16:49] <Gnea> mlester: then you need to line your file permissions up on the other end - is that a windows system or samba?
[16:49] <alan___> and no problem
[16:50] <xtreme88> alan___: ok will do so. thx:)
[16:50] <sipior> KillingArtist: yeah, you'll need to upgrade to a more recent repository. firefox 3 became the default in ubuntu 8.04
[16:50] <bazhang> !wifi | jesus_christoffe
[16:50] <Gnea> !wireless | jesus_christoffe
[16:50] <Gnea> oops
[16:50] <bazhang> heh
[16:50] <Gnea> :)
[16:50] <KillingArtist> sipior: how can i do that? do i have to reinstall the whole system???..
[16:50] <mlester> gnea: windows system but I think I have it set up with all priviledges to everyone and I have tried it out on another windows machine and I can access read. write etc
[16:51] <ailean> is there a way to virtualise an existing Windows XP installation?
[16:51] <Kira> What command line tool is there in ubuntu to check SFV?
[16:51] <sipior> KillingArtist: no. try the upgrade manager. should be in your menus somewhere.
[16:51] <jesus_christoffe> i need help activating my wireless device
[16:51] <bazhang> jesus_christoffe, please read that link
[16:51] <joaopinto> ailean, yes there is, but you need to research on that on other resource, it is offtopic here :)
[16:51] <alan___> ailean: try this
[16:52] <alan___> http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-685447.html
[16:52] <sipior> KillingArtist: i'm not on an ubuntu box at the moment, or i would be more specific :)
[16:52] <ailean> joaopinto, why off topic?
[16:52] <KillingArtist> sipior: there i can upgrade to 7.10 as it seems.. but i will try it
[16:52] <ailean> thanks alan___
[16:53] <sipior> KillingArtist: there should be an option for looking for more recent distro upgrades, iirc
[16:53] <GleepGlop> ailean: i guess it isn't Ubuntu specific. virtualbox is 3rd party virtualization
[16:53] <jesus_christoffe> how do activate my wireless device
[16:53] <joaopinto> ailean, because you need help specific to whatever virtualization tecnhology to use, like vmware, vbox, etc, which is not on the scope of the ubuntu support, actually you will need a better understanding on how windows xp works to perform that
[16:53] <Denise> turn it on maybe
[16:53] <MathijsNET> jesus what is your device brand and version etc.?
[16:53] <jesus_christoffe> i tell you in just a minute
[16:53] <GleepGlop> ailean: booting vbox from an existing XP install has many pitfalls
[16:53] <MathijsNET> ok
[16:53] <bazhang> ailean, just install virtualbox
[16:54] <bazhang> ailean, from the repos
[16:54] <ailean> bazhang, i have it installed
[16:54] <alan___> aliean: it would be just easier to install XP onto Virtual Box itself
[16:54] <Xyc0> ok really frustrating, where did the resolution config file go?  It's not /etc/X11/xorg.conf anymore
[16:54] <GleepGlop> ailean:  this might help: http://mesbalivernes.blogspot.com/2008/01/virtual-box-booting-from-existing.html
[16:54] <ailean> alan___, no, i want to use the existing installation
[16:54] <Gnea> mlester: make sure that the username you're using to authenticate with is in at least the read/write group
[16:54] <MathijsNET> jesus
[16:54] <bazhang> ailean, what is the problem? does it not boot or give an error message?
[16:54] <`Matir> Xyc0, xorg.conf is still the X config file.
[16:54] <MathijsNET> that can be done with this command: lspci -v | less
[16:55] <Xyc0> `Matir: I still can't change resolution from it
[16:55] <ailean> bazhang, it doesn't allow me to select an actual hard drive to boot from
[16:55] <KillingArtist> sipior: hm.. i just started the update to 7.10, i'll look for the update to 8.x after that, but thx for the help^^
[16:55] <GleepGlop> CDROM will not automount for me, i have mount them from bash for some reason.
[16:55] <Gnea> mlester: ntfs can be very specific about that kind of thing :)
[16:55] <bazhang> ailean, you are trying to use an already installed xp for that? or have the xp installer
[16:55] <`Matir> Xyc0, you should be able to... you're specifying a resolution and not getting it?
[16:55] <Xyc0> `Matir: there are no resolutions listed
[16:55] <ailean> bazhang, it's already installed, and has a lot of stuff on it
[16:56] <alan___> GleepGlop: You might not have the right drivers for your CDRom drive
[16:56] <bazhang> ailean, not clear what the problem is.
[16:56] <jesus_christoffe> it says network UNCLAMIED
[16:56] <GleepGlop> alan___: this is not a new install, the cdrom works fine, hence I can mount from Bash
[16:56] <MathijsNET> hm...
[16:57] <MathijsNET> jesus: you can try this guide: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/WirelessTroubleShootingGuide
[16:57] <alan___> GleepGlop: hmmmm, have you installed any programs that may conflict with the CDROM drive?
[16:57] <`Matir> Xyc0, right, if you are trying to manually force a resolution, you'd have to add it and the applicable section...
[16:57] <ailean> GleepGlop, i think that link may help, thanks
[16:57] <Xyc0> `Matir: ah, so what is determining the resolution right now?
[16:58] <MathijsNET> Xyc0: You can allso try to delete the xorg.conf file then run xconfig in a terminal
[16:58] <ailean> bazhang, the problem is that it insists on using a virtual hard drive instead of a real one
[16:58] <GleepGlop> alan____: no, I can burn CDRs fine and can mount from bash. gvfs might be screwy
[16:58] <MathijsNET> Xyc0: that resets your prefs
[16:58] <jesus_christoffe> i did sudo lshw -C network but how do i activate my network UNCLAIMED
[16:58] <MathijsNET> then rebooting your system
[16:58] <bazhang> ailean, that is what is meant by a vm; it is a file not an actual drive
[16:58] <`Matir> Xyc0, autodetection code (which, at least in my experience, works pretty well)... you can also change resoltion on the fly with xrandr for most cards
[16:58] <Reformer81> Are there any decent alternatives to Audacity?
[16:58] <cro> GleepGlop: did you check your fstab
[16:58] <bazhang> !info ardour
[16:59] <Xyc0> `Matir: xrandr -mode 1024x768 ?
[16:59] <alan___> Reformer81: Try Wavosaur
[16:59] <GleepGlop> cro: looks the same as always. this just started today for some reason
[17:00] <jesus_christoffe> can somebody help me
[17:00] <ailean> bazhang, i know.  but i want it to boot from an actual drive
[17:00] <Gnea> !ask | jesus_christoffe
[17:00] <Reformer81> alan___: Will that allow editing/saving MP3 files?  All I need to do is split some audio files (and Audacity doesn't want to playback any audio).
[17:00] <Gnea> jesus_christoffe: please provide as much detail about your setup as possible.
[17:00] <bazhang> ailean, then you should ask in #vbox or read their faq
[17:00] <`Matir> Xyc0, xrandr --output <OUTPUT NAME> --mode 1024x768
[17:01] <cro> GleepGlop: you have crdrom line there? mine is /dev/scd0 /media/cdrom0 ...
[17:01] <alan___> Reformer81: Sorry, it only runs in Windows... :(
[17:01] <GleepGlop> cro: yep its there
[17:01] <`Matir> Xyc0, output name is listed in 'xrandr' by itself
[17:01] <alan___> Should have checked it first
[17:01] <Reformer81> alan___: Uhm, then why on Earth would you suggest that here? lol
[17:01] <GleepGlop> cro: the drive works fine. I can mount and umount any media. Gnome or gvfs isn't automounting
[17:02] <Deiz> How can I change the terminal keymap?
[17:02] <Xyc0> `Matir: xrand --output Screen 0 --mode 1024x768 ?
[17:02] <JL1213> Hello. I'm still unable to get Ubuntu Hardy Heron online with wireless on a BCM4318 Wireless card. Any new suggestions for me to try?
[17:02] <alan___> Reformer: I run it using Wine, so that's why I suggested it
[17:02] <abby87> JL1213: same prob with Broadcomm 4310
[17:03] <abby87> any help for us
[17:03] <abby87> ?
[17:03] <Reformer81> ah
[17:03] <cro> GleepGlop: does dmesg says somtihing?
[17:03] <carandraug> Reformer81: I believe ubottu recommended you ardour. I've heard a good stuff about it as well
[17:03] <alan___> JL1213: Does your wireless network run on MAC adresses?
[17:03] <GleepGlop> cro: grepping it now for cdrom0 or scd0
[17:03] <cbdalos> hey does anyone know what's up with an "invalid mount option" error when connecting USB Flashdrive?
[17:03] <`Matir> Xyc0, no, the output name is usually "default" (with binary-only NVidia driver, for example) or LVDS/DVI/VGA/etc.
[17:03] <GleepGlop> cro: nothing
[17:04] <Xyc0> `Matir: awsome, thanks
[17:04] <jesus_christoffe> how do i enable my wireless device?
[17:04] <abby87> i have broadcomm 4310 and still unable to get it working
[17:04] <cro> GleepGlop: try just for cdrom
[17:04] <JL1213> alan: in place of an ESSID? I don't really understand taht question.
[17:04] <`Matir> Xyc0, it'll say "<something> connected" followed by the current mode
[17:04] <carandraug> cbdalos: have you recated the directory where to mount it?
[17:04] <cbdalos> carandruag, I'm really new to linux and do not know what you mean
[17:04] <cbdalos> carandraug, I'm really new to linux and do not know what you mean
[17:04] <carandraug> cbdalos: I meant created
[17:05] <ganesh> is there any p2p software like DC++ in ubuntu?
[17:05] <jesus_christoffe> how do i unclam?
[17:05] <cbdalos> carandraug, hmmmm no prob not, how do you do that?
[17:05] <GleepGlop> cro: nada
[17:05] <Reformer81> carandraug: Well, I'm trying out Sweep right now and it seems to be doing alright.  Thanks.
[17:06] <`Matir> jesus_christoffe, what kind of wireless are you trying to make work?
[17:06] <cbdalos> carandraug, hmmmm no prob not, how do you create a directory for it to mount to ?
[17:06] <cro> GleepGlop: what are your options in fstab that are used for mounting cdrom?
[17:06] <carandraug> cbdalos: if you're doing it automatically then it should create it for you. That error appears when mounting manually in the terminal. I can help you mounting it in the terminal if you don't know how
[17:06] <Deiz> How can I change the terminal keymap?
[17:06] <jesus_christoffe> my AR5418 802.11abgn Wireless PCI Express Adaptor
[17:07] <GleepGlop> /dev/scd0       /media/cdrom0   udf,iso9660 user,noauto,exec 0       0
[17:07] <cbdalos> carandraug, it tries to mount automatically but fails to do so, it gives me a pop up with that error : "invalid mount option", so i figured i'd try to mount it in the terminal
[17:07] <ganesh> is there any p2p software like DC++ in ubuntu?
[17:07] <carandraug> cbdalos: ok, what's the USB flash disk filesustem? NTFS?
[17:07] <cbdalos> carandraug, and the help would be much appreciated
[17:08] <mlester> ganesh: google got me this http://www.debianadmin.com/p2p-file-sharing-software-in-ubuntu.html
[17:08] <cro> GleepGlop: mine is the same just with utf8 at the and but that shouldn be the problem..
[17:08] <cbdalos> carandraug, i'm not sure.... it's a 2 gb flashdrive from memorex
[17:08] <cbdalos> carandraug, i'm sorry i'm such a noob
[17:09] <ganesh> mlester: ya i ll try..
[17:09] <GleepGlop> cro: im going to create a new user and see if that has any bearing
[17:09] <JL1213> cbdalos: I have a feeling it's going to be FAT32. I have a 2gb from them and that's what mine is.
[17:09] <carandraug> cbdalos: no problem. We've all been there before. Just run "sudo fdisk -l" in the terminal and pastebin it
[17:09] <GleepGlop> and log on as that new user
[17:09] <carandraug> !pastebin | cbdalos
[17:09] <alkos333> how much space do I need for a ubuntu installation?
[17:10] <cbdalos> ubottu, carandraug, thanks i'll try to pastebin it
[17:10] <JL1213> alkos: I believe it's a minimum 4 gb installation.
[17:11] <doggymenz> hey everyone, open terminal, and type this:    xgamma -rgamma 2.0
[17:11] <jesus_christoffe> i need to get my network calimed instead of UNCLAIMED
[17:11] <cbdalos> carandraug, i put in the command sudo fdisk -| and now it just has a ">" character....
[17:11] <hwilde> I updated my dns servers in /etc/resolv.conf but it doesn't look like they took effect.  do I have to restart network?
[17:11] <bliz0r> hwilde: you can try to restart inetd.
[17:11] <bobertdos> cbdalos: l, the letter l
[17:11] <JL1213> Anyone else have any suggestions on te Broadcom BCM4318 problem? It reads the networks, but won't connect.
[17:12] <carandraug> cbdalos: it's an l  <-- small L
[17:12] <rob> hey
[17:12] <bliz0r> hwilde: You can do it by using this command: killall -HUP inetd, I think.
[17:12] <JL1213> l << L  |<<Pipe symbol... see the difference?
[17:12] <rob> hey people
[17:12] <`Matir> JL1213, do you have the latest firmware with the bcm fwcutter?
[17:12] <cbdalos> carandraug, k
[17:12] <Deiz> How can I change the terminal keymap? I just need to know where the config file is stored.
[17:12] <bobertdos> rob: How may we help you?
[17:12] <rob> how do you install programs onto ubunto?
[17:12] <JL1213> Matir: To my knowledge, yes.
[17:13] <JL1213> rob: Just find the .deb installer and run it.
[17:13] <hwilde> bliz0r, umm that is going to kill my remote connection
[17:13] <abby87> !synaptic
[17:13] <`Matir> JL1213, do you get anything in dmesg when you try to connect?
[17:13] <cbdalos> http://paste.ubuntu.com/41285, carandraug'
[17:13] <abby87> !synaptic | rob
[17:13] <cbdalos> http://paste.ubuntu.com/41285, carandraug
[17:13] <rob> thanks
[17:14] <JL1213> Matir: Not sure what dmesg is. I'm kind of new to Ubuntu.
[17:14] <cbdalos> carandraug, did you get it?
[17:14] <`Matir> JL1213, that's fine... if you open a console and run 'dmesg', it shows you the kernel message log
[17:14] <bliz0r> hwilde: It's going to kill all your services, like FTP, HTTP etc.
[17:14] <bliz0r> hwilde: And restart them.
[17:15] <bobertdos> cbdalos: Yeah, we got it. It looks like your Windows partition is the booting partition? I wasn't here when you stated your original problem, but I'm guessing you want Linux to be in control?
[17:15] <hwilde> bliz0r, which one do I need to restart for apt-get update to resolve the dns servers
[17:15] <carandraug> cbdalos: you can see with this command that what you want to mount is the device in /dev/sdb1 (the last one). You need to create a directory for it. That's usually in /media/. So run "sudo mkdir /media/sdb1/" for that. You can use another name for the mout point if you prefer
[17:15] <JL1213> Matir: Thanks. Let me check on that real quick and I'll pastebin whatever I get.
[17:15] <hwilde> bliz0r, and isn't the appropriate way /etc/init.d/networking restart ?
[17:16] <bobertdos> aha
[17:16] <cbdalos> bobertdos, no it's the USB flashdrive won't mount because of an "invalid mount option" prblm so i'm trying to mount it through the terminal
[17:16] <hwilde> bliz0r, and isn't that going to kill my ssh terminal
[17:16] <GleepGlop> cro: oh well that had no effect
[17:16] <bobertdos> gotcha
[17:16] <cbdalos> carandraug, okay i'm running the command
[17:17] <kopa> !search *
[17:17] <cbdalos> carandraug, can you post the command one more time, i def typed it in wrong and i can't see the old one
[17:17] <debCarlos> !overshare
[17:17] <cbdalos> carandraug, ps i'm guessing you can't scroll in irssi?
[17:18] <debCarlos> uh ?
[17:18] <debCarlos> what?
[17:18] <cup0beans> does anyone know a good way to get 1080p playback working without skipping and freezing? it works on my new laptop in windows but not ubuntu and im using the nvidia restricted drivers
[17:18] <iws> hello everyone. I disabled GDM (because it doesn't seem to be playing nice with my keychain setup, login + startx does). Now when I type startx, GNOME loads. I want to use a different WM. How can I set this?
[17:18] <carandraug> cbdalos: the command to create it is "sudo mkdir /media/sdb1" sudo gives you root permission and mkdir comes from "make directory"
[17:18] <_Lucretia_> my emacs22-gtk keeps locking up, if I change to a different desktop the disk is thrashing and i have to kill X to get back to normal
[17:18] <debCarlos> ah, gotcha ubottu... you thinked i said something eh?
[17:18] <gouki> Does anyone know how to edit the right sidebar of ume-launcher?
[17:19] <debCarlos> lol
[17:19] <cbdalos> okay, carandraug, i ran the command
[17:19] <cbdalos> i'm back to carlos@carlos-laptop:~$
[17:20] <hwilde> bliz0r, you don't need to restart anything for dns changes in /etc/resolv.conf to take effect.  thanks
[17:20] <debCarlos> cbdalos: !! I have the same prompt
[17:20] <Dragonlaw> hello
[17:20] <Dragonlaw> i need some help with twinview
[17:20] <KDB9000> Does anyone know if it is possible to have both wireless and ethernet up at the same time? I am a computer networker and I know it isn't good to have both connections on the same network, but I use my wireless so I can get to the internet and sometimes use my ethernet to configure network devices (like an AP using a cross over).
[17:20] <cbdalos> debCarlos, you mean prblm? or.....
[17:21] <IndyGunFreak> Dragonlaw: whats the prob.
[17:21] <spx2> how do I preserve the layout in a screen ? I have made some vertical and horizontal split regions and now when re-attach to my screen all the layout has disappeared and they are all just tabs
[17:21] <cbdalos> carandraug: i ran the command, what is the next step? thanks for the help
[17:21] <debCarlos> cbdalos: no,, just coincidence :)
[17:21] <carthik> Has anyone installed sage from sagemath.org for use on ubuntu?
[17:21] <OllieA> KDB9000:  I don't think it is actually possible...
[17:21] <bobertdos> cbdalos: Now that the directory is created, you can try mounting the flash drive to it.
[17:21] <carandraug> cbdalos: in that command you can see that the filesystem is FAT16. Run "sudo mount -t vfat /dev/sdb1 /media/sdb1" the option -t says the type of filesystem in the device, /dev/sdb1 is the path to device and /media/sdb1 is the path to mount point
[17:21] <mlester> exit
[17:21] <Violetbass> I get an authentication faild, when I run system/systemproperties/tasks anyone?
[17:21] <Dragonlaw> when i plug my laptop into an external projector, twinview makes the resolution on the external projector at 600x400. Im using a thinkpad t61, nvidia with the envyng driver
[17:22] <KDB9000> OllieA: I know it is possible in windows because I have done it before. I know Ubuntu isn't windows but it should be possible
[17:22] <jesus_christoffe> need help
[17:22] <OllieA> KDB9000, yeah but Windows is commercial so it will offer better features than ubutnu...
[17:22] <cbdalos> carandraug: i ran that command and am back to carlos@carlos-laptop:~$
[17:23] <IndyGunFreak> Dragonlaw: hmm, dont' knw about the envyng driver.. i use the regular restricted driver and it works fine
[17:23] <OllieA> jesus_christoffe: On what?
[17:23] <carandraug> cbdalos: did it gave any error? Check if it's mounted now.
[17:23] <cbdalos> carandraug: it's mounted! thanks so much!
[17:23] <Ms5> ome help here...I spent hours trying to configure openoffice to display right some greek fonts. After some success, I tried printing it, and it comes up like crap....What do I do ?
[17:23] <shesek> how can I allow a use to sudo ?
[17:23] <Dragonlaw> oh ok. i'll uninstall envy and try the restricted drivers again then
[17:23] <TwoD> OllieA, commercial or not doesn't matter when it comes to being "better", it's usually more about what one prefers ;)
[17:23] <jesus_christoffe> i need to get my wireless device on my network activated
[17:23] <IndyGunFreak> Dragonlaw: why would you use envy t install an nvidia driver?.. thats like removing the engine to do an oil change.
[17:23] <bobertdos> KDB9000: I do that in Ubuntu sometimes as well and it doesn't hurt anything.
[17:23] <IndyGunFreak> Dragonlaw: well, no telling what envy has done to your system, but good luck on that.
[17:23] <carandraug> cbdalos: no porblem. Try Shift+Page Up or just page up to scroll in your IRC lient
[17:23] <b> re
[17:24] <shesek> Ms5, try #openoffice.org
[17:24] <cbdalos> carandraug: okay so quick second question? haha please, i have an external hard drive that also does the same problem, so do i repeat the same steps except change the drive type after -t ? and thanks for letting me know about the scroll haha
[17:24] <Dragonlaw> hmm at that point of time it seemed like a good idea to get the latest driver
[17:24] <Dragonlaw> although it does not sound like that good an idea now
[17:24] <ckyle> hi - where can i get the Radeon 4870 X2 driver for ubuntu? have looked... no can find.
[17:24] <TwoD> KDB9000, I had my wireless connected to the internet and one of my internal cards connected to my LAN (sharing the wireless connection) a while ago. Is it like that you mean it?
[17:24] <Ms5> shesek It's not about openoffice, it's about the ubuntu system, something between it and the printer
[17:24] <IndyGunFreak> !envy | Dragonlaw heed the warning
[17:24] <KDB9000> bobertdos, When I connected the AP, the nm-applet switched to ethernet mode and I couldn't connect to a website, so it somehow disconnected my wireless. Then when I unplugged the AP it gos back though and gets an IP for the wireless
[17:25] <bobertdos> cbdalos: basically, yes
[17:25] <cbdalos> bobertdos, thanks man,
[17:25] <cbdalos> thanks all
[17:25] <carandraug> cbdalos: exact. You have to create the directory before mounting it and changing vfat for whatever the filesystem. If it's ntfs you should use ntfs-3g
[17:25] <cbdalos> carandraug, yea ntfs, so okay so -t ntfs-3g ??
[17:26] <shesek> Ms5, than sorry, I dont know
[17:26] <Dragonlaw> is there anyway to use the regular restricted module
[17:26] <bobertdos> cbdalos: yes
[17:26] <cbdalos> k haha thanks !
[17:26] <KDB9000> TwoD, Something like that but not really. When you get an AP it is set to a static address, linksys are <IP_ADDRESS>. My network is a 10.10.x.x network so I need to use a cross over so I can get into the router and reconfigure it. I am not trying to share internet, just would like to be connect to the internet and be able to config devices (this way I can get a manual if I need to).
[17:26] <Ms5> some help here...I spent hours trying to configure openoffice to display right some greek fonts. After some success, I tried printing it, and it comes up like crap....What do I do ?
[17:26] <Violetbass> I installed rcconfig and did some changes to the deamons, now I get an authentication failure, whben I run system/systemproperties/deamons anyone can help please?
[17:27] <dfgas> how do i know if my modem works?
[17:27] <klwei> hey ive been told 'sudo passwd root' is bad, correct??
[17:27] <carandraug> cbdalos: yeah "sudo mount -t ntfs-3g /path_to_device /path_to_mount". Once you're done don't forget to umount it "sudo umount /path_to_device" You don't need anything else to umount. After that you can remove the direcory or leave it there for next time
[17:27] <nnull> hey guys is VMware and Virtualbox the same thing, as there just different programs doing the same purpose? like photoshop and paintshop?
[17:27] <KDB9000> TwoD, sorry I ment AP, not the router
[17:27] <klwei> if so, why?
[17:27] <nnull> as = asin*
[17:27] <Gnea> dfgas: install minicom and try to get it to dial out
[17:27] <IndyGunFreak> Dragonlaw: sure there is... but after you've installed Envy, who knows.. like i said, at thi point, good luck
[17:27] <bazhang> !away > Abra_Away
[17:27] <nnull> !vmware
[17:27] <Gnea> !dialup | dfgas
[17:27] <nnull> !virtualbox
[17:27] <klwei> hey this channel is too fast
[17:28] <klwei> ok ive been told 'sudo passwd root' is bad, correct??
[17:28] <klwei> if so, why?
[17:28] <debCarlos> !repeat | Ms5
[17:28] <carandraug> klwei: yes. It gives a the root account a password as root
[17:28] <IndyGunFreak> klwei: yes, its bad.
[17:28] <Dragonlaw> alright thank you
[17:28] <klwei> why not??
[17:28] <Gnea> klwei: root doesn't need a password.
[17:28] <m0u5e> is there a docx corrupt file recovery tool in the ubuntu repos that anyone knows about
[17:28] <bazhang> klwei, yes; use sudo instead
[17:28] <Dragonlaw> sigh i'll go and try now
[17:28] <prezz> how do I shut down my pc ????????
[17:28] <klwei> i want one tho
[17:28] <_Lucretia_> is anyone else getting lockups/thashing with emacs22-gtk?
[17:28] <IndyGunFreak> !sudo | klwei learn to use sudo, its the ubuntu way
[17:28] <Assargadon> I hear there are some solutions for programmatical RAIDs. Please lead me to one...
[17:28] <bazhang> klwei, a very bad idea.
[17:28] <tarab> hello gues?
[17:28] <klwei> i dont wnat to preceed everything with sudo tho!!!
[17:28] <nnull> guys do VMware and Virtualbox do the same thing?
[17:28] <klwei> why bad?
[17:28] <Gnea> prezz: click on the icon in the upper-right of the desktop, then press 'shutdown' on the resultant window.
[17:28] <klwei> can someone enter my box now?
[17:28] <prezz> wow
[17:29] <klwei> bazhang: ?
[17:29] <Gnea> klwei: then use sudo -i
[17:29] <IndyGunFreak> klwei: you don't preceed everything w/ sudo.. you only proceed what needs to be done w/ root, as sudo.
[17:29] <cryingtux> hello
[17:29] <klwei> ok Gnea
[17:29] <carthik> klwei for the common commands you use sudo for, like apt-get stuff, add aliases
[17:29] <bazhang> klwei, think about it; root on irc? how safe do you think that is?
[17:29] <stianiquniez> hello everyone, I've got a problem, when I open rtorrent VLC is stoping to play movies, and wont start it again, befoore I shut down rtorrent, does anybody know why ?
[17:29] <Gnea> klwei: i should clarify: sudo -i, by itself.
[17:29] <ckyle> klwei - just login as root, type "su" at the prompt to be superuser if you don't want to precede everything w/ sudo
[17:29] <m0u5e> is there a docx corrupt file recovery tool in the ubuntu repos that anyone knows about
[17:29] <klwei> im not on root here bazhang
[17:29] <tarab> i'm beginner, i want to /etc/rc.conf, but i cannot get to this file, how to enter to /etc/rc.conf ?
[17:29] <carthik> m0u5e, apparently not
[17:29] <klwei> but in another tty
[17:29] <cryingtux> can i get LXDE on my ubuntu as an alternate desktop environment?
[17:29] <bazhang> ckyle, not good advice at all.
[17:29] <shesek> how can I allow a use to sudo ?
[17:29] <shesek> *user
[17:29] <Gnea> ckyle: negative.
[17:29] <carandraug> stianiquniez: rtorrent is probably making the hash which takes some time
[17:30] <KDB9000> bobertdos, Do you use the nm-applet?
[17:30] <LOGAN> whens the next version of ubuntu coming ?
[17:30] <bobertdos> ckyle: By default, root is locked in Ubuntu.
[17:30] <m0u5e> carthik: ok thx
[17:30] <bazhang> !ibex > LOGAN
[17:30] <ckyle> ok - i'm new to linux
[17:30] <IndyGunFreak> LOGAN: october
[17:30] <stianiquniez> carandraug, : so I'll have to wait before that is finish ?
[17:30] <debCarlos> shesek: i think you have to add him to the admin group ....
[17:30] <Gnea> !sudo > ckyle
[17:30] <IndyGunFreak> ckyle: all the more reason you should refrain from giving advice.
[17:31] <m0u5e> LOGAN: october
[17:31] <bobertdos> KDB9000: I'm rethinking my answer a bit. I wonder what would happen if you used dhclient to re-acquire an IP address for the wireless after connecting the ethernet.
[17:31] <DR-E> Hi How do i get my Dlink wireless adapter to work with ubuntu?
[17:31] <Gnea> IndyGunFreak: I disagree. the only way people will learn is to do. he should at least know the basic ropes first.
[17:31] <m0u5e> DR-E: it should work by default?
[17:31] <m0u5e> DR-E: just connect to it
[17:31] <DR-E> no it doesnt detect the adaptor...
[17:31] <IndyGunFreak> Gnea: eh, maybe you gav him a bit more politically correct answer.. :)
[17:31] <Gnea> DR-E: usb?
[17:31] <carandraug> stianiquniez: yes. It can take a while though. Don't you see "Hashing" followed by a percentage during that time? Once it's finished it should be ok. It has to do that for all torrents you have
[17:31] <DR-E> new to ubuntu
[17:31] <DR-E> yes usb
[17:32] <Gnea> IndyGunFreak: 'negative'? lol
[17:32] <IndyGunFreak> :)
[17:32] <LOGAN> cheers, october approaching fast :)
[17:32] <ganesh> how to login as root?
[17:32] <KDB9000> bobertdos, What do you mean?
[17:32] <TwoD> KDB9000, ah you mean you wish to be able to set the AP for a 10.10.x.x network without having to reconfigure your wireless card to use 192.168.x.x first, hence you use the other NIC temporarily? That should definately be possible. I didn't understand exactly what happened with the nm-applet at what point.
[17:32] <m0u5e> ganesh: sudo -l
[17:32] <Gnea> ganesh: you don't. use sudo
[17:32] <IndyGunFreak> ganesh: you don't, use sudo.
[17:32] <stianiquniez> carandraug, : no, it take some time before the list of torrents come up, I don't know why..
[17:32] <IndyGunFreak> Gnea: now that was awesome
[17:33] <Gnea> IndyGunFreak: :)
[17:33] <GrnFraggle> Anyone know how to replace a "block device" that someone may have idiotically removed?
[17:33] <ckyle> mknod?
[17:33] <ckyle> just a guess...
[17:34] <bazhang> ckyle, what is that
[17:34] <Gnea> cyzie: correct :)
[17:34] <Gnea> er, ckyle: correct
[17:34] <sluckz> why is it bad to sudo root passwd?
[17:34] <carandraug> stianiquniez: it also takes some time on mine. A few seconds. But I can see movies while it's hashing, it's just the computer that gets really slow. Maybe I have a faster computer than yours or running smaller processes
[17:34] <ganesh> Gnea:to install sify client instruction says login as root ...i installed using sudo..but gives error like  error while loading shared libraries: libssl.so.4: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
[17:34] <Gnea> GrnFraggle: mknod will do it
[17:34] <Everett> leave
[17:34] <GrnFraggle>  i think so too, but i  can't get /dev/ttyUSB0 to mount to /mnt/foobar
[17:34] <KDB9000> TwoD, That is correct, that is what I want to do. nm-applet seems to still be a little under developed. I know it is possible and should be possible but it acts like I can only use one or the other at a time.
[17:34] <bazhang> sluckz, unsafe
[17:34] <Gnea> sluckz: why does root need a password?
[17:34] <doggymenz> http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=5681585
[17:34] <IndyGunFreak> ganesh: that doesn't sound like it has anything to do w/ using sudo.
[17:35] <Candale> what hidden folder in my home directory would cause browsing a windows network to be slow?
[17:35] <GrnFraggle> I'm trying to get my palm to sync, and one of the suggestions was to mknow /dev/ttyUSB0 c 188 o.   It didnt' help, so i rm /dev/ttyUSB0
[17:35] <Gnea> Candale: a large one
[17:35] <sluckz> i was just arguing with people in ##linux regarding this and realized i dont really know why this is so bad
[17:35] <stianiquniez> carandraug, : maby, but i started rtorrent for like 5 minutes ago, and the list is still not there, but I know it will come, it have always beeing slow hashing and showing the list, but befoore I could see movies while I did it.
[17:35] <carandraug> sluckz: you're giving your root account the password root. NOt only are you activating your root account that way, you're also giving it a really easy to guess password
[17:35] <Candale> Gnea: ha
[17:35] <sluckz> i personally dont do that any more
[17:36] <klwei> ok hey, is "dd if=/dev/hda1 | gzip -9 >hda1.img.gz" the right way to do it? a partition backup from a ntfs to a fat32 (!) partition that is. i slightly remember fat32 can't store files bigger than x where x is something about 4GB, right?? =/
[17:36] <Gnea> !root | sluckz
[17:36] <Candale> i mean the hidden files in my home computer on the local drive
[17:36] <GrnFraggle> now i can't sync.   i asked in here last nite, and tried mount /dev/ttyUSB0 /mnt/foobar    i got the message that /dev/USB0 isn't a valid block device
[17:37] <carandraug> stianiquniez: how do you load the torrent list? Do you have a folder and have rtorrent constantly check that folder for new torrents? If so, check the configuration file
[17:37]  * Milenko yawns
[17:37] <ganesh> IndyGunFreak: then how can i fix the problem?i followed the instruction
[17:37] <Gnea> klwei: yeah, fat32 has a silly 4096 barrier limit on blocks, making backup and conversion a PITA.
[17:37] <klwei> ohnoes
[17:37] <klwei> Gnea: what could i do??
[17:37] <Milenko> i like pita bread...
[17:37] <stianiquniez> carandraug, : yes i have, I will check the conf file..
[17:37] <klwei> aah that might explain the partimage error tho!
[17:37] <Gnea> klwei: copy the files to a real FS, then back that up
[17:37] <klwei> i have to set the file size to 4096 GB/GiB?
[17:38] <Theaxiom> If I have an 8GB USB drive, is there any way to have multiple live cd's on it?
[17:38] <Gnea> klwei: of course, you'll be on your own with permission handling
[17:38] <Gnea> klwei: no, you just can't do it with fat32
[17:38] <Gnea> klwei: either ntfs or ext3
[17:38] <klwei> Gnea: why not, partimage can split the backup to files < 4GB
[17:38] <Candale> okay. I was having problems browsing my windows network with my user profile. I created a new user and do not have the same issues. Does anyone know why?
[17:38] <gq_gunhed> hello
[17:38] <stianiquniez> carandraug, : nothing wrong whit the conf file ;S
[17:39] <chns_boy> d'
[17:39] <bobertdos> gq_gunhed: How may we help you?
[17:39] <gq_gunhed> bobertdos: does anyone know how to read the RAM frequency from the console? something like cat /proc/meminfo ???
[17:39] <klwei> Gnea: i still can do it without reformating my drive right? partimage can split the backup to files < 4GB
[17:39] <Gnea> klwei: because fat32 sucks. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File_Allocation_Table
[17:40] <W9ZEB> is there a way to install flash10 on ubuntu 8.04?  (Is Flash 10 even available yet?)
[17:40] <klwei> but its possible is it
[17:40] <carandraug> stianiquniez: try adding manually the torrents instead of using the folder and see if it works. Maybe it's some torrent you have there that's giving problems
[17:40] <bobertdos> gq_gunhed: I think that's right.......
[17:40] <Gnea> klwei: i've never used partimage with fat32, so YMMV.
[17:40] <klwei> heh
[17:40] <klwei> damn
[17:40] <Theaxiom> YMMV?
[17:40] <JL1213> Matir: It didn't open anything.
[17:40] <bobertdos> gq_gunhed: let's see........
[17:40]  * IndyGunFreak has a 188gig Fat 32 partition..lol
[17:40] <Dan6688> Theaxiom: Your Mileage May Vary.
[17:40] <klwei> ok i might change everything to ntfs or ext3
[17:40] <gq_gunhed> bobertdos: /proc/meminfo shows RAM stats but I don't think it shows the speed.
[17:40] <Gnea> klwei: but I have, however, tried to backup fat32 with clonezilla.
[17:40] <klwei> is the ntfs support good enoug already?
[17:40] <Theaxiom> Dan6688: Thanks, lol
[17:41] <Milenko> IndyGunFreak: how so?
[17:41] <Dan6688> Theaxiom: =)
[17:41] <Gnea> klwei: yes.
[17:41] <IndyGunFreak> Milenko: i just used partedmagic to create it.
[17:41] <klwei> great
[17:41] <Xpistos> Hey I could really use some help installing my graphics driver: Intel-3.4.3006-20051209.i386.tar.gz
[17:41] <Milenko> thought there was a 80gb barrier for fat32
[17:41] <Gnea> NTFS works just fine
[17:41] <klwei> good
[17:41] <Xpistos> Can anyone help me
[17:41] <gq_gunhed> bobertdos: I want to upgrade the RAM but must know what (specifications) to buy ;-)

[17:41] <mano> guys, how can i speed up ubuntu booting time... on an eeepc it takes it like 30 seconds to boot and on my hp pavilion it takes like 2 min...??
[17:41] <klwei> ok i'll format then a little
[17:42] <klwei> whats a good partition manager i could use? qparted?
[17:42] <bobertdos> gq_gunhed: In general, it's a little easier to get that information from the BIOS.
[17:42] <klwei> gparted
[17:42] <JL1213> Matir: Trying to run gmesg opened "Unknown command" in BASH.
[17:42] <Gnea> gparted
[17:42] <klwei> thx Gnea
[17:42] <Gnea> JL1213: dmesg
[17:42] <hwilde> mano, there are some things that startup in /etc/init.d and /etc/rcS.d that you might not need.
[17:42] <ckyle> do you know of an IRC for XLib programmers?
[17:42] <liquidrid> does the following make sense: 40gb for /, 4gb for swap and the rest for /home ?
[17:42] <Theaxiom> Dan6688: Sorry it is American Association Against Acronym Abuse
[17:42] <Dan6688> Theaxiom: No worries, I got it.
[17:42] <Theaxiom> Dan6688: Ok, enough OT for me, lol
[17:42] <mano> hwilde, how do i check that?
[17:42] <sluckz> what does the -i switch in sudo -i stand for?
[17:42] <klwei> ok bye laters
[17:42] <carandraug> mano: take a look at dmesg. Maybe it's finding some problem during boot
[17:42] <gq_gunhed> bobertdos: I know - but I only have ssh-connection at the moment...
[17:42] <elusive_> i have a problem with tryin to setup dual booting with grub, i could not get it to work and now when i try to boot the windows partition it says "GRUB" and is frozen solid, anyone have any suggestions how to fix ?

[17:42] <Xpistos> I tried to install GuildWars on my hardy box, but get a wierd screen that locks for a second and the logs me out of my computer
[17:43] <Gnea> Theaxiom: OMGBBQ? :)
[17:43] <JL1213> Matir: That might help.
[17:43] <hwilde> mano, if you dunno you might not want to mess with it...   ls  -l /etc/init.d/
[17:43] <Abztrakt23> hi
[17:43]  * JL1213 feels dumb now.
[17:43] <JL1213> brb again.
[17:43] <magnetron> Xpistos, did you check the instructions at Wine's Appdb?
[17:43] <hwilde> sluckz, man sudo
[17:43] <Abztrakt23> Can anyone please help me install ubuntu on my pc
[17:43] <Xpistos> Magnetron: to install the driver or the app
[17:43] <hwilde> !install > Abztrakt23
[17:43] <Abztrakt23> I've tried several time with no luck
[17:43] <elusive_> ubuntu is easier to install than windows
[17:43] <IndyGunFreak> Milenko:   http://i82.photobucket.com/albums/j263/IndyGunFreak/Screenshot--dev-sda-GParted.jpg
[17:43] <elusive_> heh
[17:43] <magnetron> Xpistos, the app
[17:44] <Dan6688> elusive_: Windows comes pre-installed =)
[17:44] <mano> hwilde, is there any gnome application to use instead of the terminal?
[17:44] <carandraug> Abztrakt23: what problems do you stumble upon?
[17:44] <Xpistos> Magnetron: There is a wiki to install the app from the terminal, but I get the same results. It installs fine and pukes when I try to run it
[17:44] <Abztrakt23> ubuntu live cd just keeps loading, please wait
[17:44] <elusive_> so anyone can help with this problem im having with grub?
[17:44] <Abztrakt23> and then takes me to that command box
[17:44] <Abztrakt23> safe box or something like that
[17:44] <hwilde> mano, you could go in Synaptic and uninstall whatever you don't want.  or look at umm  System->admin->system monitor.  in the processes tab that is everything running.  if you don't need it you could get rid of it
[17:45] <magnetron> Xpistos, yes, but did you follow the instructions on the Wine AppDB or not? if not, do it
[17:45] <hwilde> Abztrakt23, busy box?  that is usually hardware related.  did you run the check cd for errors
[17:45] <mano> hwilde, thanks
[17:45] <debCarlos> Dan6688: Doesn't matter, ubuntu intall is easier than win configuration
[17:45] <Abztrakt23> samething happens when I check for cd errors
[17:45] <stianiquniez> carandraug, : yeah, you were right, there was one silly torrent that maked it all crazy, thanks..
[17:45] <carandraug> Abztrakt23: you mean busy box? Doesn't it give an error message when it happens? Try the alternate CD then
[17:45] <Abztrakt23> it just takes me back to busy box
[17:45] <Abztrakt23> no error message
[17:45] <debCarlos> Dan6688: first time you run windows you have to configure it,
[17:45] <heydude> Ex-Chat
[17:45] <carandraug> stianiquniez: no problem
[17:45] <Xpistos> Magnetron: There are instructions for installing Guild wars on Wine's Site? Crap I never even checked that
[17:45] <Abztrakt23> at the top it says Loading, Please wait
[17:45] <hwilde> Abztrakt23, you could try the alternate cd
[17:45] <Abztrakt23> and then it shows the busy box
[17:46] <hwilde> !alternate | Abztrakt23
[17:46] <debCarlos> Dan6688: and if i remember, enter a billion of keys

[17:46] <Abztrakt23> i'll try the text install then
[17:46] <Abztrakt23> is there a guide on the net
[17:46] <bobertdos> gq_gunhed: Try lshw (using sudo)
[17:46] <gq_gunhed> bobertdos: maybe something in dmesg or /pro/acpi ?
[17:46] <Abztrakt23> or is it still simple?
[17:46] <Xpistos> Magnetron: Well Fcuk me!
[17:46] <pinoyskull> any scribus users here?
[17:46] <AzizLight> does anybody know a good color picker please? so that I can retrieve the hex code for the color of anything in any program
[17:47] <TwoD> KDB9000, have you tried configuring the cable nic as static? (I assume you have since you're using a crossover cable) Bleh, I have forgotten how to do what you want, sorry :(
[17:47] <GrnFraggle> anyone know how to resolve  " /dev/USB0 isn't a valid block device"
[17:47] <Xpistos> Magnetron: I will check that out and holla back when I have some results. 'Preciate cha!!!
[17:47] <carandraug> Abztrakt23: I find it still simple but it's certainly a bit more complex than the liveCD
[17:47] <nnull> guys ive just run a Disk Usage Analyze koz im running low of diskspace, ice noticed .cache has 1.2 gig with tracker (which i dont use?) any help? love to clear that 1.2 gig if its of no use
[17:47] <Abztrakt23> ok

[17:47] <Abztrakt23> well I'll come back here
[17:47] <Abztrakt23> by the way
[17:47] <gq_gunhed> bobertdos: very cool - exact the info I needed (and much more).
[17:47] <`Matir> nnull, should be safe to remove .cache, it may just make searches slower
[17:47] <GrnFraggle> nnull, search Ubuntu forums for "incorrect free space" .
[17:48] <Abztrakt23> between OpenSUSE and Ubuntu which is more of a resource hog?
[17:48] <gq_gunhed> bobertdos: thanks a lot for the quick help, was unable to find it on the net
[17:48] <nnull> mk
[17:48] <AzizLight> Oli``: I will get a look at that but I don't think it's gonna work, I'm using fluxbox
[17:48] <bobertdos> gq_gunhed: no problem
[17:48] <Theaxiom> Does anyone know if it is possible to setup a boot menu on a USB flash drive capable of having multiple partitions, each with a different version of the livecd? I would like to have 32-bit and 64-bit.
[17:48] <GrnFraggle> nnull there's some space reserved for OS, to backup data.    theres a way to lower the amount of space reserved for this

[17:50] <Milenko> No seriously whats up
[17:50] <seyDoggy> thanks

[17:50] <ckyle> in Nautilus... how can I configure so that when i double-click on a folder, it will open that folder in the same nautilus window?
[17:50] <ckyle> thanks
[17:51] <Milenko> Right click, Properties, window properties?
[17:51] <Milenko> i dont remember >_<
[17:51] <Abztrakt23> carandraug my computer specs are : 512 mb ram, 2.4ghz solo, intel 82845 G 64mb vram
[17:51] <Abztrakt23> would that be ok to run ubuntu?
[17:51] <ganesh> to install sify client prerequisite is "gtk2 version 2.0 or later" but in synaptic manager there are many gtk2....which 1 to select?
[17:51] <Milenko> Abztrakt23: more than enough
[17:51] <carandraug> ckyle: what Ubuntu version are you using? That's the default behavior now. Check in the propierties
[17:51] <Abztrakt23> cool
[17:51] <Milenko> Abztrakt23: thats like.. good
[17:51] <Milenko> lol
[17:51] <Abztrakt23> lol
[17:52] <Milenko> Ubuntu isnt that hardware intensive
[17:52] <Abztrakt23> it's my ancient pc so I was worried
[17:52] <Milenko> i mean some "extras" should be disabled
[17:52] <Milenko> like window effects and such
[17:52] <carandraug> Abztrakt23: it's better than mine. Ubuntu should run fine
[17:52] <ckyle> am using 8.04 lts
[17:52] <Milenko> but other than that its fine
[17:52] <Abztrakt23> ok
[17:52] <TwoD> KDB9000, and if you "ifup eth#" that nic it doesn't go up?
[17:52] <Oli``> gcolor2 might work better for you AzizLight - it's GTK-based but it's not an applet - and it's in the repos
[17:52] <Milenko> I've got a gig of ram, 1.4tb's of HDD space and a 2.4ghz P4
[17:52] <Abztrakt23> I actually haven't met anyone who has a computer worse then mine, that's probably because it's mostly gamers I meet lol
[17:52] <Milenko> lol
[17:53] <Abztrakt23> Milenko that's what I'm usually used to seeing on gaming forums/chats
[17:53] <ganesh> what is gtk2?
[17:53] <Abztrakt23> people will laugh at my ancient specs
[17:53] <GrnFraggle> Hey, if i reinstall Ubuntu over the top of itself, will that redetect and recreate all the hardware links?
[17:53] <Milenko> Abztrakt23: crappy video card, nvidia Geforce MX4
[17:53] <Milenko> :P
[17:53] <Milenko> no games for milenko :(

[17:53] <Abztrakt23> lol
[17:54] <Abztrakt23> I'm sure there are some games out there
[17:54] <Abztrakt23> can it run cs 6
[17:54] <Oli``> ganesh: the 2 is just the major version number
[17:54] <GrnFraggle> Abztrakt that's better than my box.    that's not very ancient

[17:54] <Abztrakt23> I'm still gonna get a new pc
[17:54] <Abztrakt23> lol
[17:54] <carandraug> ckyle: I remember it tells you how to do it if you go to contents. I have to do it 7.04. However, I uninstalled ubuntu-docs and no longer have it to find out
[17:54] <elusive_> damn no one knows about grub or dual booting ?
[17:55] <Oli``> ganesh: sifi?
[17:55] <elusive_> which is the best way to setup system for dual booting ? ... install nix first or windows?
[17:55] <GrnFraggle> elusive, say it again
[17:55] <Abztrakt23> looking at : 8gb ram, quad core, nvidia 9800  or 9600 GT gfx, 2tb :D
[17:55] <GrnFraggle> Windows first
[17:55] <JL1213> Matir: http://paste.ubuntu.com/41292/
[17:55] <elusive_> i have linux on sda1, windows on sdb1 and i cannot get grub to let me boot to sdb1 for anything.. right now when i try to disable the sda HD from bios menu and boot sdb1 (windows) i get a frozen screen with "GRUB"
[17:55] <Abztrakt23> with vista :(
[17:55] <chetnick> hi, can somebody thell me why on one box i can resize the panel to 19 pixels, and on the other it goes only to 23 pixels?
[17:55] <ckyle> have looked at Properties and Preferences... don't see anything for opening the folder in the same window
[17:55] <ganesh>  Oli``:sify is the internet provider
[17:55] <ckyle> will google some more
[17:56] <Mikilas> Hi, what do they mean with 'login script' in this readme :  2) Add the following to your login script:  export PSPDEV=/usr/local/pspdev
[17:56] <carandraug> ckyle: take a look in the contents "Press F1" I remember to see it there
[17:56] <ganesh>  Oli``: http://<IP_ADDRESS>:8090/linuxinstall.html
[17:56] <GrnFraggle> elusive, don't disable from bios.   if they're installed correctly (one after the other) they should show up on the boot loader of the last OS installed.   if that's Windows, you have to get into that boot loader
[17:56] <elusive_> ~/.bash_login
[17:56] <Oli``> ganesh: err okay well gtk should be installed already. the gnome desltop uses it everywhere
[17:56] <ckyle> will try F1 thx
[17:57] <`Matir> JL1213, k, lemme look
[17:57] <JL1213> Ok.
[17:57] <elusive_> GrnFraggle: well i already tried to install grub over the top of the windows HD's boot loader and its frozen on "GRUB" when tryin to boot..
[17:57] <GrnFraggle> elusive, disable in bios changes the order.  changes the sda1, sdb1.   Also changes the uid of the drive
[17:57] <vence77> chi e di roma
[17:57] <rgnr> any deluge users?
[17:58] <carandraug> Abztrakt23: you can try to buy a computer without it
[17:58] <Abztrakt23> I'll just get rid of it
[17:58] <DR-E> Hi guys im in struggle town with this Dlink wireless install can any one help?
[17:58] <Mikilas> Hi, what do they mean with 'login script' in this readme :  2) Add the following to your login script:  export PSPDEV=/usr/local/pspdev ?
[17:58] <Abztrakt23> so many people here lol
[17:58] <elusive_> Mikilas: ~/.bash_login
[17:58] <Abztrakt23> I tried installing openSUse last night with no luck so now I'm giving ubuntu a try
[17:59] <carandraug> Abztrakt23: I believe it's cheaper if you buy a computer without OS (or with Linux). Also, make sure you won't have hardware problems in Linux first
[17:59] <Abztrakt23> yeah, hopefully not
[17:59] <elusive_> Mikilas: echo "export PSPDEV=/usr/local/pspdev" >> ~/.bash_login
[17:59] <Abztrakt23> do you think an iMac would be a better option?
[17:59] <rampageoberon> Could someone please help me building a debian package for an application that uses Sconscript file to compile and install?
[17:59] <Vialas> anyone come across a balnk screen while trying to install ubuntu?
[17:59] <Mikilas> thank you elusive!
[17:59] <elusive_> np
[17:59] <Abztrakt23> Vialas I saw a few people complaining about that on the net
[18:00] <Vialas> bugger
[18:00] <JL1213> Abztrakt23: Possibly, as Apple's Mac OS is Unix based.
[18:00] <Vialas> i dono what to do :(
[18:00] <sjea> hi all
[18:00] <carandraug> Abztrakt23: if you like macs. I find them too expensive. It's possible to install Linux on them as well
[18:00] <DR-E> anyone using Dlink wireless?
[18:00] <ganesh> Oli``: installed successfully but when i run from terminal sifyconnect: error while loading shared libraries: libssl.so.4: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
[18:00] <carandraug> !hardware | Abztrakt23
[18:00] <Abztrakt23> I was considering the iMac, but the specs on the pc are tempting
[18:00] <elusive_> ganesh: ls -al /lib/libssl*
[18:01] <Abztrakt23> thanks ubottu
[18:01] <JL1213> DR-E: Not here, but you should check out the Wifi Docs.
[18:01] <Abztrakt23> or rather carndraug
[18:01] <DR-E> ok cool
[18:01] <JL1213> !wifi | DR-E
[18:01] <elusive_> ganesh: err.. ls -al /usr/lib/libssl*
[18:01] <Mikilas> echo "export PSPDEV=/home/miklas/prog/ps" >> ~/.bash_login
[18:01] <`Matir> JL1213, when you're in Ubuntu do you have any connectivity?  (e.g., wired)
[18:01] <ganesh> -rw-r--r-- 1 root root<PHONE_NUMBER>-05-29 15:22 /usr/lib/libssl3.so.1d
[18:01] <ganesh> -rw-r--r-- 1 root root<PHONE_NUMBER>-06-20 01:38 /usr/lib/libssl.so.0.9.8
[18:02] <Abztrakt23> the acer guy has a machine different from mine
[18:02] <JL1213> Matir: No, as I'm using community Wifi, so I have no access to a wired connection.
[18:02] <elusive_> ganesh: ln -s /usr/lib/libssl.so.0.9.8 /usr/lib/libssl.so.4
[18:02] <`Matir> JL1213: ah, gotcha
[18:02] <Abztrakt23> I'm guessing my error has something to do with RAM, VRam, USB - external stuff, or my gfx card
[18:03] <ganesh> elusive_: done
[18:03] <Nightwalker-> kejo
[18:03] <JL1213> Matir: Yeah. Makes my problem that much harder to work with, since I have to see if I need something in Ubuntu and then download it in Windows to a USB drive and then install it.
[18:03] <`Matir> JL1213, I've seen errors exactly like those before with a bad/outdated firmware... let me see if I can get a good version for you in a way that you can load easily.
[18:03] <elusive_> ganesh: try agian at what your doing, you will likely encounter another error heh
[18:04] <`Matir> JL1213, is it an open (unencrypted) network, or does it use WPA?
[18:04] <KDB9000> TwoD, It gos up and is up, but when I connect a device it switches from wireless to ethernet (meaning I can only have one or the other, not ethernet and wireless)
[18:04] <JL1213> Matir: Open.
[18:04] <elusive_> prolly just will have to link a few more libs, is all..
[18:05] <ganesh> elusive_: sifyconnect: error while loading shared libraries: libcrypto.so.4: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
[18:05] <elusive_> ls -al /usr/lib/libcrypto*
[18:06] <ganesh> elusive_: -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 1342340 2008-06-20 01:38 /usr/lib/libcrypto.so.0.9.8
[18:06] <elusive_> ln -s /usr/lib/libcrypto.so.0.9.8 /usr/lib/libcrypto.so.4
[18:06] <Zaiden> I have one partion set to windows xp, and one set for Ubuntu. Is it possible to erase the windows xp partion so that the free space on the HD can be connected to the ubuntu partion?
[18:06] <shane_> any samba gurus in here? #samba is dead
[18:06] <JL1213> Matir: I have the bcm43xx-firmware_1.4-0cafuego1_all.deb installed, if it helps.
[18:06] <stemount^> shane_: I know quite a few bits
[18:07] <shane_> stemount^, i have a new network, and one of my shares just won't stop asking for a password
[18:07] <duwlas> how can i change the tty font/size to something smaller?
[18:07] <stemount^> shane_: paste your config
[18:08] <elusive_> Zaiden: yes u can do that
[18:08] <Zaiden> Yay
[18:08] <hlfshell> hello - i have a serial to usb converter plugged into a usb port on my computer and i need to access it using minicom. how can i tell what serial port to look at to see the data?
[18:09] <elusive_> Zaiden: df -h
[18:09] <`Matir> JL1213, that should have the relevant firmware, but I'm wondering if it's not accurate... you do have one of the newer cards with the b43 driver, and not legacy?
[18:09] <shane_> stemount^, http://pastebin.ca/1187559
[18:09] <`Matir> JL1213, If I recall, you said it's a 4318?
[18:10] <ganesh>  elusive_: yes working....thank you very much..
[18:10] <Abztrakt23> it's amazing how well ubuntu works
[18:10] <elusive_> ganesh: np
[18:10] <stemount^> shane_: which share
[18:10] <Abztrakt23> a very organized set up and company
[18:10] <Abztrakt23> I'd like to see microsoft work this way
[18:10] <elusive_> lol
[18:10] <elusive_> bill gates would like to see that also
[18:10] <Xpistos> Magnetron: Well at least I am getting a different result with the Guild Wars Now
[18:11] <Xpistos> Magnetron: It isn't rebooting, but the app doesn't actually load. That is at least an improvement. I'll keep you posted.

[18:12] <iix> how can i fix haT?
[18:13] <iix> that*
[18:13] <JL1213> Matir: I'm not sure if it's the legacy or not, and yes it's the 4318. Sorry, was changing a baby diaper.
[18:13] <elusive_> iix: paste the line you typed to get that error?
[18:13] <CBprog> hey all, does anyone know how to work anjuta in ubuntu? or just how to program / compile c++ in terminal? thanks
[18:13] <Gnea> W9ZEB: in ~/.mozilla/
[18:13] <elusive_> cbprog: gcc -o file file.c
[18:13] <iix> elusive_: $ gnome
[18:13] <`Matir> JL1213: lol, it's fine, I'm at work, so my responses sometimes get a little slow too
[18:13] <CBprog> elusive, you mean run that command in terminal then?
[18:14] <elusive_> yeah
[18:14] <iix> elusive_ ?
[18:14] <CBprog> elusive, how do you specify the directory for the file? or does it just auto find it?
[18:14] <elusive_> iix: as what user?
[18:14] <Gnea> !compile | CBprog
[18:14] <ckyle> iix: I think you're not linking to the X11 libraries... i had similar problem this morning
[18:14] <W9ZEB> Gnea: Strange.  I have like 9 plugins installed, but no ~/.mozilla/plugins folder  and ~/.mozilla just shows /extensions and /firefox under it.

[18:14] <CBprog> elusive, thanks i'll try that
[18:14] <Gnea> W9ZEB: yes, you'll need to dig into the firefox subdirectory
[18:15] <iix> elusive_: root
[18:15] <elusive_> iix: you shouldnt run gnome as root :P
[18:15] <dkorzhevin> Do not use firestarter. Use Gufw
[18:15] <iix> sure.
[18:15] <ckyle> gcc test.c -o test -lX11
[18:15] <iix> how do i fix it?
[18:15] <ckyle> use that command
[18:15] <ckyle> if that doesn't work you'll need to use synaptic to install the libs
[18:15] <TwoD> Abztrakt23, reboot and chose Windows from the booloader menu. Assuming you installed GRUB and it detected your Windows partition.
[18:15] <iix> ?
[18:15] <Gnea> W9ZEB: and if the plugins are installed on the system, not as user, then they will be installed system-wide, and you'll need to look in the system-wide directory to find them. usually /usr/lib/firefox/plugins/
[18:15] <JL1213> Matir: I know what you mean. So is there a version of that installer that is for the b43 instead of b43xx?
[18:16] <xbxbxb> dkorzhevin: that's not a great help given that I cannot do anything right now
[18:16] <Abztrakt23> ok
[18:16] <Abztrakt23> is Wubi a good method of installing ubuntu?
[18:16] <arpu> hello i have a problem with hardy server i cannot create a crontab -e for a user
[18:16] <W9ZEB> Gnea: Just trying to get the Flash10-beta installed and working ;)  Thanks.
[18:16] <Gnea> Abztrakt23: yes.
[18:16] <Gnea> W9ZEB: good luck :)
[18:16] <bazhang> Abztrakt23, may as well dual boot imo
[18:16] <arpu> no crontab for rails - using an empty one
[18:16] <iix> ?
[18:16] <arpu> /tmp/crontab.Tc19Jv: Permission denied
[18:16] <arpu> Creation of temporary crontab file failed - aborting
[18:16] <ScheissDrogen> Abztrakt23: for a first look maybe, i don't like wubi
[18:16] <iix> (gnome:2989): Gtk-WARNING **: cannot open display:
[18:16] <Abztrakt23> how come?
[18:16] <iix> how do i fix this ?
[18:16] <arpu> anyone an idea ?
[18:17] <Gnea> bazhang: have you ever installed wubi? i did, and it set the NTFSloader up to dual-boot
[18:17] <plb_> Is there a way for evolution to run in the background and check mail? I want mail notifications but it only appears to work if I've got evolution open
[18:17] <duwlas> how can i change the tty font/size to something smaller? =[
[18:17] <ScheissDrogen> Abztrakt23: because its installin in ntfs and so isn't inddependent from windows
[18:17] <`Matir> JL1213, there is a firmware extractor, but your firmware package should have the same firmware.  I'm trying to extract the latest one from the openwrt project right now to see if they are the same.
[18:17] <Abztrakt23> oh so it's not a dual boot?
[18:17] <Gnea> Abztrakt23: it is.
[18:17] <Abztrakt23> it's like a vm
[18:17] <lman_> hi
[18:17] <GrnFraggle> Anyone know how to fix and USB block device?
[18:17] <JL1213> Matir: Ok. Thanks.
[18:18] <Gnea> yes and no.
[18:18] <Abztrakt23> if it is a dual boot than what's the problem

[18:18] <bazhang> Gnea, I have; thought a dual boot to be better. thus the imo :)
[18:18] <Gnea> Abztrakt23: you haven't installed it yet :)
[18:18] <Abztrakt23> oh
[18:18] <Abztrakt23> ok
[18:18] <Gnea> bazhang: yeah, they sort of skewed it a bit
[18:18] <Abztrakt23> I see
[18:18] <ThreeFinity> Does anybody know if there is a way to delete all files within a folder that aren't *.mp3 ?
[18:18] <shane_> stemount^, the one labeled My Book
[18:18] <Abztrakt23> I'll stick with the alternate install
[18:19] <stemount^> shane_: I think it's this
[18:19] <stemount^> path = /media/My Book
[18:19] <bazhang> true
[18:19] <CBprog> elusive, thanks that worked. do you know of any more packages that are up for downloads that may not be included in ubuntu which contain libraries for C++, DX, OpenGL, etc ? random question I know
[18:19] <stemount^> try path = /media/My\ Book/
[18:19] <joaopinto> The-Compiler, find /path ! -name "*.mp3" -print
[18:19] <xbxbxb> what could be the cause if I can connect to my local router, but not to a remote website, although I have a stable internet connection up and running?
[18:19] <Abztrakt23> Gnea how do I make it so that windows is the main OS and Ubuntu is secondary?
[18:19] <The-Compiler> joaopinto: You don't mean me, right? :P
[18:19] <Deiz> How can I change the terminal keymap? I just need to know where the config file is stored.
[18:20] <Gnea> Abztrakt23: just edit the /boot/grub/menu.lst file and copy the lines for windows to the top
[18:20] <TiredWolf> Abztrakt23: you edit /boot/grub/menu.lst and change the line that says "default". to know which number to put there intstead of "0", you need to look at the order of the entries
[18:20] <The-Compiler> ThreeFinity: <joaopinto> The-Compiler, find /path ! -name "*.mp3" -print
[18:20] <Abztrakt23> I guess I'll have to google that
[18:20] <Gnea> Abztrakt23: ...top of the listing, not top of the file
[18:20] <ompaul> ThreeFinity, move the *.mp3 elsewhere for a moment then remove the directory then rename the temporary home to the original (is one way)
[18:20] <CBprog> does anyone know of any packages that contain the C++ libraries, or DirectX libraries, or OpenGL libraries?
[18:20] <joaopinto> right :P
[18:20] <finalbeta> How do you recommend backup up a PC? I need something that can pretty much back up the whole thing. If the hard drive fails I need to be able to restore it.
[18:20] <Gnea> Abztrakt23: it helps to have it actually installed first
[18:20] <arpu> no one an idea ? of the crontab -e permission problem on hardy server ?
[18:20] <Abztrakt23> I'm not on ubuntu yet so I'll ahve to figure that out
[18:20] <TiredWolf> CBprog: DirectX is proprietary and Windows-only
[18:20] <joaopinto> finalbeta, partimage, or just tar
[18:20] <bazhang> !backup | finalbeta
[18:20] <Abztrakt23> Gnea yeah windows makes me stupid it's hard to relate when I don't have it on my machine
[18:20] <finalbeta> thank you.
[18:20] <Gnea> Abztrakt23: so install it, then come back and ask questions :)
[18:21] <lman_> Hi, i have a small problem. I have everything working fine (sound, video, etc) I got WoW working perfectly on wine, sound, everything. The problem is, that i cant get any audio from outside WoW (amarok, totem media player, system sounds, etc)
[18:21] <TiredWolf> CBprog: for the c++ headers, funnily i don't remember whether installing "build-essential" will get them, but it certainly won't hurt to install it anyway (you need it if you develop)
[18:21] <Abztrakt23> kk
[18:21] <Gnea> Abztrakt23: keep trying, you'll break free of the madness
[18:21] <Abztrakt23> but I wouldn't know how to install X-Chat
[18:21] <CBprog> TiredWolf, hmm yea... that would be true haha, OpenGL def isn't though and neither is C++
[18:21] <iix> (gnome:2989): Gtk-WARNING **: cannot open display:

[18:21] <iix> how do i fix this ?
[18:21] <CBprog> TiredWolf, yea I saw that package when I was trying to program in Anjuta so I downloaded it
[18:21] <pa_> hi
[18:21] <bazhang> Abztrakt23, very easy to do; sudo apt-get install xchat
[18:21] <joaopinto> CBprog, opengl libraries are not on the opengl dev package, directx is not available on Linux
[18:21] <the_eraser> iix: dont  spam
[18:21] <Abztrakt23> kk
[18:21] <Gnea> Abztrakt23: once it's installed, it will make sense ;) there's an add/remove programs entry in the main menu
[18:21] <Abztrakt23> hope it works
[18:21] <iix> do u see me spamming ?
[18:22] <iix> u can tell me not to spam but cant help me
[18:22] <iix> muhahaha
[18:22] <CBprog> joaopinto, do you know if I download the libraries online, they will work on linux?
[18:22] <zeusss> lman_: start wow with padsp
[18:22] <bazhang> iix, try not to use enter key so much
[18:22] <joaopinto> CBprog, sudo apt-get install freeglut3-dev
[18:22] <TiredWolf> iix: i see you repeating the same line over and over. and no, sorry, i don't think i can help you
[18:22] <CBprog> joaopinto: thanks
[18:22] <The-Compiler> iix: you are indeed spamming. And yes, we can't help you if you don't post any infos.
[18:22] <lman_> zeusss, i'll try that
[18:22] <Gnea> iix: until you learn how to respect channel protocol, no one has to help you.
[18:22] <joaopinto> CBprog, before trying to develop on Ubuntu, you should learn to install software on it ;)
[18:22] <iix> well i been here for 20 mins and notbody   has help'ed
[18:22] <iix> yea?
[18:22] <Abztrakt23> I'm looking at a dual boot guide at the moment on youtube
[18:22] <hwilde> iix, can you state in one line what is your question?
[18:22] <TiredWolf> !patience | iix
[18:23] <wal3> When I have many tabs in one gnome-term, i sometimes press on the [x] button by fault when i want to change the tab. is there any way to re-restore the term?
[18:23] <iix> hm
[18:23] <iix> my question is how do i fix this error (gnome:2989): Gtk-WARNING **: cannot open display:
[18:23] <TiredWolf> iix: details please.
[18:23] <ompaul> iix, this problem appears to be caused by a user other than the one who owns the X session trying to run a program, the short answer is you can't get there from here
[18:23] <IndyGunFreak> lol
[18:23] <hwilde> iix, sorry that was more than one line, you wasted your chance
