[17:32] <traemccombs> hey guys, how do I upgrae my dist from 8.10 -> 9.04 from the command line.  I'm using ubuntu as a server.
[17:33] <thahauss> merlinn_, ubuntu first, windows 7 wiped out grub, I restored grub, and now trying to add windows 7 to the list
[17:33] <Sponce> Mo0oSaH, man i totally feel you. ATi and Linux = bad times right now. i had to upgrade to 9.04 just to get my GPU to work, and it's still not doing it's job right
[17:33] <merlinn_> thahauss: i think your menu.list will say 0,3 or 0,4... i'm not sure which one is the install
[17:33] <Jinxed553> traemccombs: then why risk updating... do you need any of the new features
[17:33] <zerothis>  I have a USB harddrive with a live bootable partitiion and a partition with a normal instalation. how can set it up to select which to boot?
[17:33] <Mo0oSaH> chuck_: what card do you have? Did you get a warning during the upgrade?  There is a huge thread on the forums with everyone complaining about how ATI made relatively newer cards legacy
[17:33] <merlinn_> thahauss: try both
[17:33] <traemccombs> Jinxed553: well...it's not a mission critical server...  but was just curious
[17:33] <cafree> I need to get firewire for my system and am thinking of buying a firewire card to install.  How is ubuntu's hardware support for those?  Do I need to be careful of which one I buy?
[17:33] <thahauss> merlinn_, ok I sure will, do I need to run the "update-grub" command? i came across that while researching
[17:34] <sacarlson> ÿ£¢Jinxed553: then maybe you could modify the file at /etc/X11/xorg.conf   change the line with device   to device "vesa"
[17:34] <Jinxed553> traemccombs: it is up to you... I just know I wass extremly frustrated after one upgrade and everything that i had spent lots of time setting up to my liking was screwed up
[17:34] <merlinn_> no, that generates a menu.lst
[17:34] <merlinn_> itll overwrite your changes
[17:34] <Dr_Willis> cafree:  the few i have tried - had no issues.   ive not needed them in ages however. One was built into sound card, one was a stand alone pci card
[17:34] <paco> im having problems with my ati radeon 9200 Xorg eats all the cpu
[17:34] <sacarlson> ÿ£¢Jinxed553: that will at least get you to boot gnome then you will have to find a working better driver for you ati
[17:34] <traemccombs> Jinxed553: aye... yeah I'm aware of those things...
[17:34] <thahauss> merlinn_, ok, I really, really appreciate your time thanks a ton for the help
[17:34] <Mo0oSaH> Sponce: do you have 3d enabled>? What card do you have?
[17:34] <paco> in jaunty
[17:34] <merlinn_> thahauss: no problem, i hope it works
[17:34] <thahauss> merlinn_, I'm going to restart and cross my fingers :)
[17:35] <Jinxed553> alright brb
[17:35] <merlinn_> thahauss: mine will be crossed too =)
[17:35] <paco> does any one know how to fix it
[17:35] <paco> ?
[17:35] <cafree> Dr_Willis, I'm not really knowledgeable about firewire at all, but I think I have an old soundblaster with firewire.  If I install that would I be able to use its port to transfer video from my camcorder?
[17:35] <paco> when i was having intrepid it was working correctly
[17:35] <Dr_Willis> cafree:  should work. try it and see.
[17:36] <Mo0oSaH> paco: are you using fglrx drivers?
[17:36] <Dr_Willis> cafree:  with some frirewire stuff you may need to load the modules manually.
[17:36] <paco> hmmmm how do i know if i am using fglrx

[17:38] <bastid_raZor> mikebeecham; scp or mount the directory locally via ssh
[17:38] <yaris123456789> how do i remove a file in several deep subdir, and remove that entire subdir at same time ?
[17:38] <dooner> mikebeecham, media is on the mac and you want to see if from an ubuntu install?
[17:38] <Dr_Willis> mikebeecham:  depends on your needs.  using ssh and 'sshfs' is rather easy to get going. or set up some samba/shares.. if ox-s supports nfs. that may be 'fastest' but might be harder to setup
[17:38] <mikebeecham> dooner: correct mate
[17:38] <cafree> sacarlson, thanks.  I'll try to find my old card and buy a cable, see what happens
[17:38] <Vittorio> hi guyz

[17:38] <sebsebseb> hi
[17:39] <mikebeecham> Dr Willis.  Are there any speed restrictions when using ssh, as I will be streaming media across the network
[17:39] <Mo0oSaH> paco: then you're using open source drivers, they are really buggy at the moment
[17:39] <chuck_> paco, well that answered your question
[17:39] <Vittorio> any1?
[17:39] <paco> so what do i have to do
[17:39] <paco> ?
[17:39] <Dr_Willis> mikebeecham:  i stream videos find with sshfs   try it and see i guess.
[17:39] <bastid_raZor> yaris123456789; rm -R /path/to/folder
[17:40] <Mo0oSaH> paco: try to install fglrx to see if that fixes the issues, there are a few howtos, just google them.
[17:40] <dooner> mikebeecham, turn on filesharing on the mac (that will use SMB) and you should be able to connect (all my media is stored on NFS servers so I not 100% sure how to do it on ubuntu :))
[17:40] <jetienne> q. what is the name of the default video player in ubuntu
[17:40] <JustSomething> Totem, I think
[17:40] <PhotoJim> mikebeecham: NFS or Samba will be faster.  you can also use Apple networking with Linux, although I've never done it.
[17:41] <paco> thanks i hope its not too complicate, im new in these things
[17:41] <jetienne> JustSomething: ok
[17:41] <bastid_raZor> jetienne; in gnome/ubuntu it is totem
[17:41] <Debolaz> After upgrading from hardy to jaunty, there's a very noticable degradation in sound quality.. Are there any big obvious reasons for this I should check?
[17:42] <mikebeecham> PhotoJim: How easy is NFS to set up?  I want something that will work really well, but I'm not a great user of Linux, so will need easy instructions to follow :D
[17:42] <Mo0oSaH> paco: which version of Ubuntu are you using?
[17:42] <Dr_Willis> !nfs
[17:42] <paco> 9.04
[17:42] <Dr_Willis> mikebeecham:  takes me all of 5 min on 2 linux box's :) may be harder on OSX
[17:42] <dooner> mikebeecham, I Not sure OSX client can do NFS.  best to stick with SMB (samba)
[17:42] <yaris123456789> bastid_raZor: can i tell it to ignore parent directory
[17:42] <Dr_Willis> OS-X has bsd for the core and cant do NFS? :()
[17:43] <mikebeecham> Dr_Willis: dooner thanks...will try and get Samba set up.
[17:43] <Dr_Willis> or proberly cant do it as nicely :)
[17:43] <Vittorio> need help with my sound card any1 ?
[17:43] <PhotoJim> mikebeecham: NFS has a learning curve.  the hardest thing about it is that users on Linux, BSD and OS X have user numbers as well as names, and to serve between machines using NFS, user names and numbers need to match.  OS X doesn't start numbering users at 1000 like Linux does, so you have to renumber the users on the Mac and then modify the file ownership.  I managed it in about an hour, but for a newbie it's probably slightly intense. :)
[17:43] <dooner> Dr_Willis, I not sure OSX (not server) can act as a NFS server by default :)
[17:43] <paco> im using ubuntu jaunty
[17:43] <lenswipe> msg NickServ identify

[17:43] <lenswipe> can someone talk a look at something for me
[17:44] <bastid_raZor> yaris123456789; the parent directory will not be deleted .. if you tell it to rm folder1 inside of folder2 by this means. rm -R /folder2/folder1 it'll only remove folder1
[17:44] <mikebeecham> PhotoJim: might just go with Samba :D   Is there any difference in performance between Samba and SSH?
[17:44] <paco> but as i said , when i had intrepid everything worked correctly
[17:44] <Dr_Willis> dooner:  but OS-X is supposed to magicially make everything trivial.. (ill shut up now) :P

[17:44] <PhotoJim> mikebeecham: NFS > Samba > sshfs in terms of speed.
[17:44] <Linkadmin> me neither
[17:45] <dooner> Dr_Willis,  hehe.  It might, I've never tried to run an NFS server on OSX (non server). I use OpenSolaris for them : (and I'll shutup now as well... )

[17:50] <brian_> but when i enter ./helloworld.o in bash i get a permission denied error, what gives?
[17:50] <psilikon> is there a kde4 metapackage i can just apt-get?
[17:51] <psilikon> for 9.04?
[17:51] <itnom> Zerothis: Thanks man!
[17:51] <Phlexonance> scarlson, to be honest, I didn't try a nslookup
[17:51] <Sponce> brian chmod +x helloworld.o
[17:51] <paco> chuck, thanks so the problem is the driver that i have?
[17:52] <zerothis> no US govenment agencies are totally linux yet, but a few are definitly headed in that direction.
[17:52] <brian_> Phlexonance: Now I get:./helloworld.o: cannot execute binary file
[17:52] <victorzerefos> someone can help me
[17:52] <sacarlson> ÿ£¢lenswipe:  you might want to try this gui package to setup samba:  system-config-samba
[17:52] <merlinn_> brian_: that's an object file, not an executable
[17:52] <Sponce> :color
[17:52] <merlinn_> brian_: try "gcc -o executable source.c
[17:52] <victorzerefos> can I install some program outside ubuntu
[17:52] <lenswipe> scarlson: thanks, its not an issue with setting it up, i suspect its just a permissions problem on the netlogon folder, but im trying to find out if im right or now
[17:52] <victorzerefos> just like: msn or winrar
[17:53] <lenswipe> scarlson: not*
[17:53] <Digital7>  If I create an OpenVPN server in Ubuntu, do all of the client machines need to have OpenVPN installed, or can they simply use the built-in Windows VPN connection client?
[17:53] <sacarlson> ÿ£¢Phlexonance: ping should return a number then start trying to ping no number seen in ping?
[17:53] <dooner> brian_, how did you compile it?
[17:53] <pm2> Hi - does anyone know of free linux software that can take a set of latitude/longitude points, and plot them using free map data of some sort (topographical preferably)?
[17:53] <brian_> first i tried geany
[17:53] <brian_> then i did g++ helloworld.cpp
[17:54] <sacarlson> ÿ£¢Phlexonance: if no number then you problem is i DNS  if number are seen then maybe a routing problem
[17:54] <Sponce> brian g++ helloworld.c -o helloworld.exe
[17:54] <Phlexonance> scarlson, next time (which will undoubtley come in an hour or so) I'll see if the problem is the dns
[17:54] <sacarlson> ÿ£¢Phlexonance: or a firewall problem
[17:54] <briancro> I just started RBox after someone asked about it and I am loving last.fm
[17:54] <Phlexonance> scarlson, I have no router and no firewall
[17:54] <dooner> brian_, or could also do make helloworld (default make rules should work...)
[17:54] <chuck_> paco, I do not know what driver you have if you installed the fglrx driver and fglrxinfo says not installed you did something wrong and it fell back to the vesa driver
[17:55] <brian_> um ubuntu uses .exes?
[17:55] <sacarlson> ÿ£¢Phlexonance: if you use dhcp then you do have a router it's just setup auto.  this hapens in an hour maybe your dhcp lease expire is set to that?
[17:55] <sebsebseb> brian_: no
[17:55] <Phlexonance> sacarlson, *I* do no thave a router, the cat5 goes straight to my ISP
[17:56] <sacarlson> ÿ£¢Phlexonance: so you setup a static ip address?
[17:56] <paco> hmmmmm i havent installed ftglrx
[17:56] <Phlexonance> sacarlson, no, it's dhcp, as I've said
[17:56] <xy|ox> brian_, geany got a "build" button where it will compile your code
[17:56] <dooner> brian_, it doesn't, but there is no reason  you cannot name a file .exe . but the .exe wouldn't be use to tell the system the file is executable.
[17:57] <sebsebseb> brian_: you need Wine to open exes in a Linux distro,  however  Wine can't run every Windows program
[17:57] <ubuntumachine> i need help..im trying to get write permission to an external drive that already has info...
[17:57] <sebsebseb> ubuntumachine: ok  open the terminal
[17:57] <paco> chuck, i havent installed  ftglrx
[17:57] <ubuntumachine> sebastien, ok
[17:57] <Sponce> brian i only suggested it to make it clear to you what is a .c, .exe and later on other files like .h
[17:57] <merlinn_> brian_: gpp -o executablename sourcename.cpp
[17:58] <brian_> ok i got it to work
[17:58] <sebsebseb> ubuntumachine: gksudo nautilus    be careful with that since your root/admin for all the files on your Ubuntu install with that,  so don't delete something by mistake
[17:58] <touch> hi i got a problem, when i try to install ubuntu gparted freezes the sytem when it trys to format the hdd this error only happens with a 64bit installation. Does anyone can help me with this ?
[17:58] <brian_> wtf does geany hide the build option away?
[17:58] <brian_> compile is useless...
[17:58] <Sponce> makes sense to do the sourcename first considering there is tabbed completion
[17:58] <pmvalente> hello, I'm made the update from 8.10 to 9.04, but the kernel still the 2.6.27-11 and grup still said 8.10, but I'm in 9.04. someone could help me?
[17:58] <merlinn_> they both work
[17:59] <ubuntumachine> sebastien, ok....
[17:59] <sebsebseb> ubuntumachine: then  get  into computer  or   maybe  /media or /mnt  where your external hard disk is.   right click go to properites,   and  you can change the permissions for it
[17:59] <brian_> guys hello world is really really slow...
[17:59] <brian_> this doesnt seem right
[17:59] <shadeslayer> hi anyone who can help me get 4 wallpapers on 4 workspaces and display my desktop icons too?
[17:59] <brian_> it takes like 2 seconds to appear, is that normal?
[17:59] <sebsebseb> pmvalente: you mean it's left the old kernel on from 8.10?
[17:59] <merlinn_> brian_:  its the coder :)
[17:59] <ubuntumachine> sebastien, that didnt work
[17:59] <thewrathjr> has anyone used 9.04 server or only 8.04 server lts?
[18:00] <shadeslayer> thewrathjr: better ask in #ubuntu-server
[18:00] <sacarlson> ÿ£¢Phlexonance: well next time it hapens or you can record it now is look at the numbers provided for DNS at /etc/resolv.conf  and ping those numbers when you get the error to see if the problem is on the isp side.  if you have a local device you should see if you can ping that also
[18:00] <ubuntumachine> sebastien, i tried to change from root to myuser and that didnt work..and i tried to change file acces to write and read and that didnt work
[18:00] <pmvalente> sebsebseb: yes
[18:00] <brian_> merlin_: I might not be the best coder but I am pretty sure my hello world code should be very fast
[18:00] <dooner> brian_, how slow is your computer :)  Also is it just a single cout statement or is it something more complicated ?
[18:00] <brian_> Just a cout
[18:00] <brian_> my computer should be fast
[18:00] <shadeslayer> brian_: compiling a C++ program??
[18:00] <brian_> i am using 64 bit ubuntu
[18:00] <merlinn_> brian_: totally kidding.  pastebin your source for us to look at
[18:00] <Phlexonance> sacarlson, I have no local device but I'll try to ping the dns servers
[18:00] <ubuntumachine> sebastien, error   The owner could not be changed.
[18:01] <sebsebseb> ubuntumachine: it should just  find it  with  gksudo nautilus
[18:01] <sebsebseb> ubuntumachine: and what I said
[18:01] <sebsebseb> !permissions |  ubuntumachine
[18:01] <sacarlson> ÿ£¢Phlexonance: you should also try to ping the gateway address
[18:01] <Sponce> anyone know if this terminal IRC client supports colour?
[18:01] <brian_> http://rafb.net/p/wDzy9y65.html
[18:01] <brian_> there is my code
[18:01] <brian_> hard to get simpler than that
[18:01] <shadeslayer> Sponce: irssi does that
[18:01] <paco> does anyone know how to fix my problem, xorg is eatting all my cpu im using jaunty
[18:01] <Phlexonance> sacarlson, how do I find out what the gateway's adress is
[18:01] <ubuntumachine> sebastien, Error The destination is read-only.
[18:02] <sebsebseb> pmvalente: you should have the newer one as well
[18:02] <touch> j
[18:02] <shadeslayer> brian_: lose the #
[18:02] <ubuntumachine> sebastien, i tried changing the FIle Access to Write and Read..and it didnt work
[18:02] <sacarlson> ÿ£¢Phlexonance: sudo route   will return your router info the default line will be your gateway address
[18:02] <sebsebseb> ubuntumachine: change the group and that as well,  you don't want root for anything
[18:02] <merlinn_> brian_: why the sleep(5)?
[18:02] <sebsebseb> ubuntumachine: you want your user name
[18:02] <Sponce> shadeslayer i'll check it out
[18:02] <ubuntumachine> sebastien, i got an error when i changed it to my username
[18:03] <brian_> So the text stays on my screen?
[18:03] <chuck_> paco, you can install it from the guide i sent you It is all cut and past just read the whole thing, I am not saying the fglrx driver is bad i just do not like it
[18:03] <sebsebseb> ubuntumachine: which was?
[18:03] <ubuntumachine> ubuntumachine
[18:03] <paco> ok
[18:03] <paco> chuck, ill try it
[18:03] <paco> chuck, thanks
[18:03] <xy|ox> brian_, cout<<"Hail Texas"<<endl;
[18:03] <Phlexonance> sacarlson: sudo route does not reveal the ip of my gateway
[18:03] <pmvalente> yes in /boot have config-2.6.28-11 and vmcoreinfo-2.6.28-11 and initrd.img-2.6.28-11, and how could I do the update myself
[18:03] <paco> chuck_, thanks
[18:03] <merlinn_> brian_: are you not running it from a terminal?  it should stay on your screen anyway
[18:03] <chuck_> paco, your welcome
[18:03] <pmvalente> sebsebseb:yes in /boot have config-2.6.28-11 and vmcoreinfo-2.6.28-11 and initrd.img-2.6.28-11, and how could I do the update myself
[18:03] <dooner> brian_, remove the sleep (5) and see if gets faster.  I think iostream is buffered, so it could just be waiting ...
[18:04] <shadeslayer> brian_: or getch() , if its supported :P
[18:04] <ubuntumachine> sebastien, this is the error i got....  The owner could not be changed.
[18:04] <sacarlson> ÿ£¢Phlexonance: you have no default?
[18:04] <sebsebseb> pmvalente: let's find out what kernel your running at the moment. if you don't already know
[18:04] <sebsebseb> pmvalente: uname -r   in the terminal
[18:04] <Phlexonance> sacarlson: default         *               <IP_ADDRESS>         U     0      0        0 ppp0
[18:04] <sebsebseb> ubuntumachine: make sure it's  the gksudo nautilus one
[18:04] <ubuntumachine> sebastien, i did
[18:04] <brian_> thats really weird
[18:04] <Debolaz> Hmm, switching kernels didn't have any effect on the sound problem.
[18:04] <pmvalente> sebsebseb: 2.6.27-11-generic
[18:05] <therealpxc> hello. Is there anyone here who knows something about persistent USB installs and can explain to me the advantage of using the USB Creator versus a straight install to an external HDD?
[18:05] <therealpxc> does it affect the life of the drive, bootability, etc?
[18:05] <Debolaz> I guess there's no choice but to downgrade from jaunty back to hardy to fix the problem.
[18:05] <sacarlson> ÿ£¢Phlexonance: oh pppoe is not the same as dhcp
[18:05] <ubuntumachine> sebastien, i did gksudo nautilus...went to /media...right clicked Iomega - properties - permission
[18:05] <brian_> sleep(5) was the culprit -- on windows system("pause") doesn't slow my program down, I guess linux is bloatware...
[18:05] <sebsebseb> pmvalente: maybe you already got it installed, if not you can probably install it from the repo,  and you can even get a slightly later kernel  if you use a ppa
[18:05] <shadeslayer> therealpxc: no real difference apart from boot-times
[18:05] <merlinn_> brian_: pause is different than sleep(5)
[18:05] <sacarlson> ÿ£¢Phlexonance: then all you can ping is the dns
[18:06] <Phlexonance> sacarlson, yes
[18:06] <xy|ox> brian_, you should use the line i wrote, so your output get flushed inmediately
[18:06] <pmvalente> sebsebseb: ppa?
[18:06] <dooner> brian_, linux != bloatware , read about buffered IO
[18:06] <merlinn_> therealpxc: actually, the USB creator is like a live cd.  straight install is the traditional type of install
[18:06] <sebsebseb> pmvalente: normalley only recommended for more experiended users
[18:06] <chuck_> paco, you still here
[18:06] <merlinn_> therealpxc: persistent is like a live cd that tracks changes.  still not really a traditional install
[18:06] <therealpxc> merlinn_: Yes, I know, but why would you want a LiveCD-like install?
[18:06] <shadeslayer> therealpxc: USB creator will format to fat32 (low boot speed) whereas complete install will give ext 4 (faster)
[18:06] <sacarlson> ÿ£¢Phlexonance: does it give you an ip address?
[18:06] <paco> chuck_, yes
[18:07] <Phlexonance> sacarlson, what do you mean
[18:07] <sebsebseb> pmvalente: ,but  Ubuntu only does security updates, and so using ppa's is a way to get even later  packages
[18:07] <merlinn_> therealpxc: im not sure full install to a USB device was possible until the last version or two
[18:07] <sebsebseb> !ppa >  pmvalente
[18:07] <merlinn_> therealpxc: but it definitely is smaller than a full install
[18:07] <sacarlson> ÿ£¢Phlexonance: does ifconfig   return an ip address?
[18:07] <paco> chuck_, ?
[18:07] <ubuntumachine> anyone know?
[18:07] <therealpxc> merlinn_: Ah, and you also get to specify how much space is used for persistent changes, etc.
[18:07] <chuck_> paco, go here and make sure your card is not on the list if it is your only option is the open source drivers http://wiki.cchtml.com/index.php/9.4
[18:07] <shadeslayer> therealpxc: i would suggest a full install :)
[18:07] <Debolaz> Hmm.. it seems like ubuntu jaunty especially dislikes mixing audio. Trying to mix several audio streams together makes the sound all choppy.
[18:07] <psychic> is there any way i can make a startup password so people cant just turn on the computer?
[18:07] <Phlexonance> sacarlson, sure
[18:08] <Whitor> hi. Does anyone know how to get X11VNC to remain active after a client exit? If I establish a vnc connection to my x11vnc server... when I exit -thats it. I have to drive back into work if I want to reconnect again... the server shuts down on client exit.
[18:08] <paco> my ati card is radeon 9200
[18:08] <ubuntumachine> gksudo nautilus did not work....is there another solution
[18:08] <sacarlson> ÿ£¢Phlexonance: ok that's all I can tell ya
[18:08] <paco> chuck_, my ati card is radeon 9200
[18:08] <unop> psychic, that depends on the motherboard/BIOS
[18:08] <dooner> brian_, if you want to leave the sleep add an << endl to the end of the line to flush the buffer.
[18:08] <sebsebseb> !permissions |  ubuntumachine
[18:08] <shadeslayer> so no one on my 4 wallpaper question?
[18:08] <paco> chuck_, no its not there
[18:08] <psychic> unop how can i check
[18:08] <psychic> ?
[18:08] <therealpxc> shadeslayer: Sounds like a plan. I tried it a bit ago, but like a dumbass, I forgot to tell Ubuntu to install GRUB to the not to the MBR of my primary HDD, but the boot record of the external lol. I had to fix GRUB from a LiveCD and the first time I forgot to set up the chroot properly (by remounting /proc within the chroot, etc.)
[18:08] <merlinn_> therealpxc: right, the casper partition
[18:09] <therealpxc> So I figured this time I'd be a bit more careful
[18:09] <sacarlson> ÿ£¢Phlexonance:  it's been a long time since I used dialup with pppoe  sorry I'm stale there
[18:09] <JustSomething> !permissions > JustSomething
[18:09] <sponce> yay tabbed completion and colour, thanks for the recommendation shadeslayer
[18:09] <ubuntumachine> sebastien, ????
[18:09] <Phlexonance> sacarlson, thx for now, I'll ask again here later after the next round
[18:09] <shadeslayer> therealpxc: haha , happens all the time :)
[18:09] <therealpxc> My only other question is if, since BIOSes appear pickier about booting from external media, the Ubuntu install will function/boot properly from a partition other than the first.
[18:09] <pmvalente> sebsebseb:that's to much for me, thanks anyway, I will wait for the next update on my system.
[18:09] <unop> psychic, enter the BIOS setup utility or consult your motherboard/BIOS documentation.
[18:09] <ubuntumachine> sebastien, i tried chmod 777 /media/Iomega....didnt work
[18:10] <sebsebseb> pmvalente: well it should have installed for you when you upgraded
[18:10] <therealpxc> I already have a partially-full (gigs of crap) NTFS partition I'd rather not attempt moving
[18:10] <unop> ubuntumachine, what kind of filesystem on the Iomega?
[18:10] <merlinn_> therealpxc: should be fine as long as it has the boot flag enabled
[18:10] <ubuntumachine> sebastien, i also tried chown -R
[18:10] <sebsebseb> pmvalente: maybe it has, just for some reason didn't add itself to Grub
[18:10] <therealpxc> merlinn_: I thought the boot flag was only applicable to FAT filesystems..?
[18:10] <shadeslayer> therealpxc: how about moving all of it to the external HDD and repartioning?
[18:10] <merlinn_> therealpxc: nope
[18:10] <ubuntumachine> unop, honestly..i dont know..didnt think of it..how do i check
[18:10] <therealpxc> shadeslayer: That's definitely a possibility, I just want as little time sunk into it as possible lol.
[18:11] <unop> ubuntumachine,  fdisk -l  # should list it
[18:11] <sebsebseb> ubuntumachine: maybe editing fstab is another way,  but been a while since I done this stuff
[18:11] <paco> chuck_, do you know how can i get the 9.4 installer, the link there seems not to work
[18:11] <therealpxc> (I must have been thinking of the "active" and "lba" partition labels, those are the DOS ones)
[18:11] <shadeslayer> therealpxc: leave it overnight ;)
[18:11] <therealpxc> anyway, thank you guys for your help, shadeslayer and merlinn_
[18:11] <pmvalente> sebsebseb: in installation it asked "keep actual grub" or something like that, and I answer yes, may be because of that
[18:12] <shadeslayer> therealpxc: no problem
[18:12] <merlinn_> np
[18:12] <ubuntumachine> unop,  Disk /dev/sdb doesn't contain a valid partition table
[18:12] <sebsebseb> pmvalente: open synaptic  and search for kernel
[18:12] <sebsebseb> pmvalente: if you got a green one for the later kernel, then you have installed
[18:12] <chuck_> paco, the installer is at ati's web site
[18:12] <ubuntumachine> Disk /dev/sdb: 500.1 GB,<PHONE_NUMBER>16 bytes
[18:12] <sebsebseb> pmvalente: and you can manualley edit the grub menu.list for it
[18:12] <unop> ubuntumachine,  is /dev/sdb your iomega ?
[18:12] <ubuntumachine> unop, yes
[18:12] <paco> chuck_, ok let me look for it
[18:12] <unop> ouch
[18:13] <bo7amny> is there a command in the terminal that open a program in selected work place ? "sorry 4 the bad en"
[18:13] <ubuntumachine> unop, but it works on a mac
[18:13] <unop> ubuntumachine, can you put that output on a pastebin ?
[18:13] <pmvalente> sebsebseb: Yes I know how edit grub, but since uname -r give me the old kernel I thing that is the one installed, but I will check via synaptic
[18:13] <ubuntumachine> unop, sure..but i already did in here...did you see it?
[18:14] <sebsebseb> pmvalente: I am saying you  have the old one installed yes, but you may also have the new one already installed as well
[18:14] <sebsebseb> pmvalente: and if you don't you can install the newer one
[18:14] <DaveJ1337> howdy
[18:14] <merlinn_> bo7amny: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=85751
[18:15] <unop> ubuntumachine, no, can you paste it again please?

[18:15] <jmburgess> DaveJ1337: what do you mean?
[18:15] <bo7amny> thank u merlinn_
[18:15] <thuglife222> hi room
[18:15] <thuglife222> i need help
[18:15] <thuglife222> i am new to ubuntu8.10 and i have problem with the sound
[18:15] <pmvalente> sebsebseb:you have right, I have both installed, so just modifying grub should work?
[18:15] <DaveJ1337> well, I've got my display running to a 46inch TV and Ubuntu sees it as a 37"
[18:15] <sebsebseb> pmvalente: yep
[18:16] <merlinn_> bo7amny: im not sure if that's what you want, but it may be the closest that you can achieve
[18:16] <unop> ubuntumachine, ok. what does this give you?   file -s /dev/sdb   #you might need to use sudo here
[18:16] <DaveJ1337> the top, bottom, left and right are cut off
[18:16] <thuglife222> when ever i try the ubuntu sound recorder it don't echo my voice back to me i mean recorded one
[18:16] <DaveJ1337> desktop too big for screen
[18:16] <ubuntumachine> unop, /dev/sdb: data
[18:16] <pmvalente> sebsebseb:should I uninstall first the old one?
[18:16] <DaveJ1337> seems like it should be an easy fix
[18:16] <sebsebseb> pmvalente: leave the old one there for now at least
[18:16] <thuglife222> any body listenin' to me ?
[18:16] <thuglife222> i need help
[18:17] <sebsebseb> pmvalente: when you got a working newer one, well sure if you want get rid of the old one
[18:17] <dooner> !ask | thuglife222
[18:17] <unop> ubuntumachine, hmm, that doesn't say very much ...
[18:17] <thuglife222> dooner: i have problem with the sound
[18:17] <ubuntumachine> unop, thats the output
[18:17] <sebsebseb> pmvalente: plus if you remove the kernel.  do the grub menu.list editing wrong for newer kernel, and re boot, well  maybe you won't have a kernel that you can just boot up at all
[18:18] <thuglife222> dooner: i can listen to songs.... even during recording i can listen to my own voice as well... but when i listen back to recorded voice its like no voice atall
[18:18] <dooner> thuglife222, what type of problem?  Does it work, not work? low/ garbled/etc..
[18:18] <sebsebseb> pmvalente: and then you need the Live CD or whatever to fix  menu.list again
[18:18] <jmburgess> DaveJ1337: i think it is just a quick edit in your xorg.conf
[18:18] <ubuntumachine> sebastien, thanks for your help..it was greatly appreciated :)
[18:18] <pmvalente> sebsebseb:ok thank you very much for your help. I will try and then I came were and say something about.
[18:18] <thewrathjr> shadeslayer, thank you
[18:18] <thuglife222> dooner: the builtin sound recorder in ubuntu dosen't record
[18:18] <shadeslayer> thewrathjr: hmm?
[18:19] <sebsebseb> ubuntumachine: you figured it out now?

[18:22] <liaflleh> it doesnt work anymore
[18:22] <Benin> The image from my webcam comes in upside down; it is a built in webcam thus I can't "turn it upside down"
[18:22] <thuglife222> but problem comes when i try to record and listen it back
[18:22] <shadeslayer> thuglife222: did you even see the wiki?
[18:22] <sebsebseb> liaflleh: be more specific, what's the problem?
[18:22] <Benin> ok I'll give that a try
[18:22] <rob0917> thank you
[18:22] <thuglife222> shadeslayer: yup most of ppl are out there hopeless about this problem
[18:22] <shadeslayer> thuglife222: which card?
[18:22] <Benin> I tried the Cheese program but it doesn't change the image for other programs ie skype
[18:23] <jmburgess> DaveJ1337: so I have stuff in my xorg conf
[18:23] <shadeslayer> Benin: oh...you meant like a inverted live capture?? no idea
[18:23] <thuglife222> shadeslayer: its intel DG31 PR
[18:23] <jmburgess> DaveJ1337: are you looking at /etc/X11/xorg.conf?
[18:23] <sebsebseb> liaflleh: it does not work anymore, could mean loads of things,   so what did you mean by that?
[18:23] <DaveJ1337> oh yeah jmburg?   mine's generic with no real entries

[18:24] <sebsebseb> !work
[18:24] <DaveJ1337> I wonder if I put an entry in there if it will override whatever else Jaunty's using...
[18:24] <Benin> Shadeslayer: Yeah; I used Cheese previously and saw I could change the image 'artificially' but the camera itself still takes the image upside down
[18:24] <joe-mac> victory is mine! in case anybody is wondering, alsa 1.0.20 works with hdmi out through nvidia 9500GS

[18:28] <dr3mro> how to expand casper-rw file
[18:28] <Spreadsheet> sebsebseb: Still, the space is wrong
[18:28] <aaron_> shadeslayer: you would need a special software plugin for windows to be able to read it. I have windows and I can see files from my linux hard drive.
[18:29] <shadeslayer> thuglife222: ok...i think you told me your mother board no. please pastebin the output of lspci
[18:29] <merlinn_> dr3mro: resize2fs maybe
[18:29] <shadeslayer> aaron_: ??
[18:29] <aaron_> but your right about windows in the raw state.
[18:29] <si4re> whether there is an analogue of the AutoCad in linux?
[18:29] <sebsebseb> Spreadsheet: your making a bootable  Ubuntu  from USB?  or  you just want a USB stick that works on Windows and Ubuntu?

[18:31] <mohanohi> I am using Ubuntu studio 9.04
[18:31] <aaron_> Spreadsheet:  windows can read ext   only if you use a special program that is installed. Otherwise  windows by itself can't read such a format/filesystem.
[18:32] <Spreadsheet> ok ok
[18:32] <mohanohi> once i boot it longins and after some 1 min it freezes..
[18:32] <shadeslayer> thuglife222: any name will do
[18:32] <whatvn>  thuglife222: check what type of output?
[18:32] <mohanohi> but sometime it freezes without booting..
[18:32] <Spreadsheet> The problem is NOT FAT32/NTFS/ext. It is the space is not right
[18:32] <RHorse> mohanohi what is your ram?
[18:32] <mohanohi> i have to do hard reset to reboot..
[18:32] <whatvn>  thuglife222: I meant mp3, ogg, wave or something else
[18:32] <RedDragons> can ubuntu read fat32 or ntfs?
[18:32] <mohanohi> Trancend
[18:32] <aaron_> Spreadsheet: did you use the space up?
[18:32] <sebsebseb> RedDragons: both of them
[18:32] <Spreadsheet> aaron_: no
[18:32] <sebsebseb> RedDragons: and write to them
[18:32] <mohanohi> Hey my windows is running goood..
[18:33] <shadeslayer> RHorse: i think studio has a diff. support channel
[18:33] <whatvn> RedDragons: yes, Ubuntu does
[18:33] <patrickroughan> hey anyone use to install and using snort and acidbase?
[18:33] <mohanohi> and ubuntu 8.10 also was running good..
[18:33] <shadeslayer> !studio > mohanohi
[18:33] <aaron_> Spreadsheet: so you have a blank 4 gig memory and it would show 512mb or something not 4gb.
[18:33] <Spreadsheet> aaron_: yes

[18:33] <RHorse> cool
[18:33] <Spreadsheet> Yes
[18:33] <RedDragons> I'm try to intall sinit but it can't find it

[18:35] <aaron_> Sometimes restarting the computer could fix it. I had problems with mine too where it did that but after I restarted the computer and plugged it in when I started to log into my ubuntu os.
[18:35] <thuglife222> shadeslayer: http://paste.ubuntu.com/174426/

[18:53] <Jack_Sparrow> Quiescent To get live cd to run this often helps..At start or install press F4 and select safe graphics mode then press F6 and remove Quiet and Splash from the command line. If it still fails.. Repeat and after removing quiet and splash use the noapic acpi=off options and F4 for safe graphics mode.

[18:58] <Isopropane> Hi
[18:58] <userek> it seems its a known bug
[18:59] <Isopropane> My laptop is having a problem with an incredibly high running temperature because the fans will only come on at 80*c. How can I change this in Ubuntu?
[18:59] <donkey_> stroyan just last night i had the wireless working and now i cant get it to work. I had just installed Ubuntu 8.10 and had to reinstall. But i cant get it to work again. any idea?

[19:00] <Jack_Sparrow> !kernel
[19:00] <stroyan> donkey_: You dont' give a very complete picture of your situation.  Is the ubuntu system a client to a working wireless router that still works for other machines?
[19:01] <userek> blah, do they even test these packages? or they just test a few, and asume that since tese work the other stuff should work as well
[19:01] <userek> and it works ASS well
[19:01] <userek> :P
[19:01] <donkey_> stroyan i fixed it :)

[19:04] <Huy> HI
[19:05] <userek> HI
[19:05] <Huy> how can I get my Genius G-pen to work on Kubuntu 9.04 ?
[19:05] <Slart> Roasted: old motherboard?
[19:05] <sebsebseb> userek: well sure, but  most hardware and software is made for Vista
[19:05] <Slart> Roasted: you might want to try updating the bios
[19:05] <sebsebseb> userek: most modern above
[19:05] <Roasted> Slart - I built this comptuer in november of 08.
[19:05] <chemikalz> morning ubuntu users
[19:06] <madsj> hi; I have a problem with java under www.ddb.dk -> Log-on -> Netbank (Activecard)
[19:06] <Roasted> Slart - I checked BIOS updates and in the fixes section for what each BIOS does it didnt appear that any of them had anything to offer in terms of a change for fixing my issue.
[19:06] <madsj> it crashes firefox; how can I fix this ?
[19:06] <Huy> The first time I plugged the device in, Kubuntu seem to recorgnize it, I could use the pen to control cursor
[19:06] <Huy> but after I reboot
[19:06] <Huy> hmm
[19:06] <Huy> :(
[19:07] <chemikalz> whats the diffference between ubuntu and kubuntu?
[19:07] <Slart> Roasted: hmm.. it just sounded like one of those old "the boot partition must be in the first 1024 sectors" things or something like that
[19:07] <Jack_Sparrow> !enter > Huy
[19:07] <Jack_Sparrow> chemikalz Window Manager, you can install both at the same time if yu like
[19:07] <Tasem> O: Hello, Im having a problem with my Bamboo Fun(Wacom) Tablet, where xorg freezes sometimes while I use it. I think it could also have to do with Compiz, but Im not quite ready to give that up yet.
[19:07] <Huy> ok Jack_Sparrow
[19:07] <mvalviar> hi guys. Can anyone tell me how I can diagnose sporadic lock ups on my jaunty box?
[19:07] <Jack_Sparrow> ty
[19:07] <Slart> Roasted: but I don't think that would be a problem in 2008
[19:07] <chemikalz> i have window manager installed on my regulare ubuntu though
[19:07] <spectrum> hi all
[19:07] <Roasted> Slart - that was my thinking too.
[19:07] <Tasem> mvalviar, are you using a tablet or Compiz?
[19:07] <System404> hey my bitches how r we all
[19:08] <Slart> !language | System404
[19:08] <chemikalz> sup system
[19:08] <Roasted> Slart - I can eventually boot with it. I just hit ctrl alt del once or twice and eventually it boots fine.
[19:08] <mvalviar> Tasem, compiz
[19:08] <Jack_Sparrow> chemikalz http://xwinman.org/
[19:08] <RHorse> hug your sweetie today.
[19:08] <System404> chemikalz wazzzup
[19:08] <Jack_Sparrow> System404 That is unacceptable language in here, thanks
[19:08] <System404> wat is wazzzup
[19:08] <Slart> Roasted: uh.. that's very odd.. I would think it would either boot or not.. not just whine about it and then boot
[19:08] <Tasem> It might be that. Im having a similar issue, since I have an Nvidia card, but Im not really ready to give it up yet so I want to see if fixing my tablet solves the problem
[19:09] <Roasted> Slart - that's what I found weird, man.

[19:09] <Roasted> Slart - I dont have a boot partition though... not sure if itd make a difference.
[19:09] <Slart> !ru | spectrum
[19:09] <Jack_Sparrow> !ru > spectrum
[19:09] <Slart> Roasted: hmm.. you mean you don't have a separate boot partition, right?
[19:09] <Slart> Roasted: ie /boot is located in the same place as your other root file
[19:10] <Slart> *files
[19:10] <Roasted> Slart - No. I have 80gb Vista, 20gb Root, 380gb Home. That's my disk.
[19:10] <Slart> Roasted: then those 20GB are the boot partition.. even if you have other files on it as well
[19:10] <Jack_Sparrow> Roasted Slart is correct you will find /boot on your root
[19:11] <System404> ok u ubuntu gurus attempting to install ubuntu 8.0.4 on a dell vostro 1510 however during install the kernal loads then goes to a command screen no gui like it should be i tried startx and get list of errors so im thinking my video card but my dell vostro 1510 is a pretty recent machine so surely there should b no probs with the install
[19:11] <Roasted> Slart - Would the size of my Vista partition be the reasoning behind my BIOS crapping out and GRUB barfing out that error?
[19:11] <Slart> Roasted: I would think so, yes
[19:11] <lungren> im using 8.04 hardy and im having trouble watching online videos while having my media player open at the same time
[19:11] <Roasted> Slart - what is that error, about the 1024 sectors or whatever. What's the scoop with that?
[19:12] <lungren> this is a somewhat frequent problem from what i gather
[19:12] <aaron_> is their any fix with youtube videos?  meaning flash or something.
[19:12] <System404> i also tried a more recent version of ubuntu but it just gave other errors id click install and then list of errors read on sum forums that was sumfin to do with my disk drive
[19:12] <lungren> i cant have music playing and a video playing... i tried something i found on the ubuntu forums but it didnt do much

[19:13] <j0ve> I am attempting to get fusesmb to work without much success. Has the procedure for fuse systems changed with jaunty?
[19:13] <aaron_> on firefox
[19:13] <komputes> System404: whats the video card in that machine?
[19:14] <System404> its intel komputes
[19:14] <Slart> Roasted: I don't really remember. let me see if I can find somethign on google
[19:14] <mvalviar> when i click the bookmark menu to access my bookmarks FF pops up the bookmark dialog prompting me to bookmark the page.
[19:15] <komputes> System404: ok, what I reccommend is boot into the greub menu by pessing ESC at boot - run xfix from the recovery mode, if that fails, as 'Driver "vesa"' to your xorg.conf
[19:15] <breadtk> Has anybody had any experience with installing Ubuntu 9.04 onto HP Mininote 2140?
[19:15] <Jack_Sparrow> At his own request

[19:15] <System404> thanks komputes will give it a go
[19:16] <komputes> System404: i made a few typos so ask if you don't understand what I just said ;)
[19:16] <Roasted> Slart - can I "add" a boot partition on an already installed dual boot hard drive?
[19:16] <Jack_Sparrow> Roasted I have a way you can test that issue without scrambling your partitions
[19:16] <Roasted> Jack_Sparrow - oh? How so?
[19:17] <Slart> Roasted: yes, if you can make some free space at the beginning of the drive you can create a small boot partition.. it might mess up the grub menu though since the partitions will change numbers
[19:17] <Jack_Sparrow> Roasted You can make a boot cd
[19:17] <Roasted> Slart - what's the ideal partition space for a boot partition?
[19:17] <Roasted> Jack_Sparrow - like super grub?
[19:18] <Jack_Sparrow> Roasted no, it is a copy of your /boot on a cd and it works like the regular one.
[19:18] <Slart> Roasted: very moderate.. you can check how big your /boot folder is.. if it was me I would use around 1GB or so
[19:18] <Roasted> Jack_Sparrow - so I'd rely on a CD to boot my computer?
[19:18] <Jack_Sparrow> Roasted I use it after reinstalling windows to get back into my system to fix the mbr
[19:18] <Slart> Roasted: and that's probably a bit more than you'd actually need
[19:18] <Jack_Sparrow> Roasted In your case it would only test to see if that would solve your problem

[19:20] <sebsebseb> AVGHelp: ok you don't need an antivirus in Ubuntu
[19:20] <Roasted> Slart - Do ya think I could add a boot partition with an Ubuntu LiveCD in front of Vista without re-installing Ubuntu?
[19:21] <komputes> simplexio: the default shell is defined in /etc/pass at the end of the line - mine says  komputes:x:1000:1000:komputes,,,:/home/komputes:/bin/bash
[19:21] <sebsebseb> AVGHelp: all you need is a good password for Ubuntu,  and  a firewall,  say in your router, and you should be fine
[19:21] <AVGHelp> sebsebseb yes i do and i WANT it
[19:21] <RedDragons> I'm trying to intall sinit but it can't find it
[19:21] <Jack_Sparrow> Roasted no

[19:21] <RedDragons> i'm useing the server ver
[19:21] <sebsebseb> !virus | AVGHelp

[19:22] <Slart> Roasted: yes...gparted might be able to do it.. as always.. make backups of anything important on that vista partition.. sometimes vista doesn't like being moved around
[19:22] <Adremelech|Lapto> AVGHelp, if you really want AV, use clam
[19:22] <Jack_Sparrow> Roasted Not sure about vista but there would be a few files to fix to get you back up and running
[19:22] <AVGHelp> sebsebseb i do need it
[19:22] <unop> komputes, it was simprix not simplexio  .. and he wanted to change the default shell not the one currently assigned to a user.
[19:22] <sebsebseb> AVGHelp: why do you think that?
[19:22] <lungren> i followed some steps i found on the forums but the audio of my videos still dont work
[19:22] <Slart> AVGHelp: do you know how to start the antivirus software from a terminal?
[19:22] <Roasted> Slart - I have a clonezilla LiveCD image of my Vista partition, along with my Ubuntu data backed up on a spare 500gb drive in my system anyway.
[19:23] <Roasted> Slart - I've been bitten in the rear a couple times with failed drives - so now I have 4 drives in mys ystem, 1 to use, 3 for backups. Overkill? Yes. But I won't be a sucker again.
[19:23] <Slart> Roasted: wow.. first time I've actually run into someone that already has backups.. =D
[19:23] <komputes> unop: oops :|
[19:23] <Jack_Sparrow> Roasted but they may not work on a relocated partition
[19:23] <AVGHelp> adremlech i have something called "virus scanner" which can be found in applications add remove and it is based on clamAV BUT it does not actively by itself scan whilst the computer is running it does not scan when you click stuff it does not work in the background protecting you
[19:23] <Roasted> Jack_Sparrow - wh at wouldnt work?
[19:23] <macd> Recomendations for an EEEPC install (1000HD), have been looking at geteasypeasy.com, any other suggestions (have read over at array.org on compat issues already)
[19:23] <AVGHelp> adremlech but that is not the point the point is i downloaded avg for linux dubble clicked it to isntall but it is not showing up in applications accesories
[19:24] <Adremelech|Lapto> AVGHelp, did you try from the command line?
[19:24] <Jack_Sparrow> Roasted Your backups may not work if you try and restore on a new/different partition
[19:24] <komputes> Has anyone gotten vino to work in jaunty?
[19:24] <Jack_Sparrow> !eee > macd
[19:24] <macd> Jack_Sparrow, thanks, have read.
[19:24] <sebsebseb> AVGHelp: Why do you think you need anti virus?  Ubuntu is not Windows,   Linux is not Windows, as a result  about the only computers that run Linux that need antivirus is   mail servers that scan for Windows viruses
[19:24] <AVGHelp> adremelech i tried both these options https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Antivirus/Avg
[19:24] <Roasted> Jack_Sparrow - my clonezilla backup is of the partition only. So as long as I have a partition of the exact size available, I can tell clonezilla to rstore it to that. I'm sure of this because last month my main drive died and that's how I restored Vista.
[19:25] <macd> Was more looking for personal experience with one, rather than the bots help msg ;)
[19:25] <AVGHelp> sebsebseb there are criminnals everywhere in the world i just want more protection
[19:25] <Adremelech|Lapto> AVGHelp, like they said: you dont really need AV on linux
[19:25] <Adremelech|Lapto> AVGHelp, hence the lack of AV programs
[19:25] <Jack_Sparrow> Roasted BUT you restored to the same size partition in the same location (first on the drive) correct, putting it on SDA2 may not give the desired results
[19:25] <Slart> AVGHelp: you might want to try rkhunter for added protection then.. not instead of other stuff.. but as a complement
[19:25] <RedDragons> I'm useing the server ver. I'm trying to intall sinit but it can't find it.
[19:25] <AVGHelp> adremelech ok that is very nice i dont need it how do i get it to display in appliacations accesories
[19:26] <breadtk> AVG has a linux version? O_o
[19:26] <Jack_Sparrow> !find sinit
[19:26] <matreya6> Adremelech|Lapto, AVGHelp , Well there is Clamtk
[19:26] <Slart> AVGHelp: also.. some kind of IDS... and logging to something that isn't erasable.. ie not the local system
[19:26] <Jack_Sparrow> !info sinit
[19:26] <Adremelech|Lapto> matreya6, i know, thats what i use :)
[19:26] <Roasted> Jack_Sparrow - I understand what you're saying, but within clonezilla LiveCD I can pick and choose what image goes to what partition - as long as one of proper size is available, I can push it there accordingly.
[19:26] <odder> is anyone willing to help me resizing a file with avidemux? I need to make twice the current size...
[19:27] <AVGHelp> breadtk look here http://free.avg.com/download?prd=afl
[19:27] <RedDragons> or is it called x
[19:27] <Jack_Sparrow> Roasted You can push the image on any partition, getting ti to work is the issue
[19:27] <Slart> odder: you want a bigger file? just fyi the quality won't be better
[19:27] <odder> Slart: yes, I am aware of that.
[19:27] <breadtk> AVGHelp: Sure enough...huh
[19:27] <AVGHelp> matreya6, slart yes your oppinions are very nice but do you know how to fix it so that the program will show up in applications accessories
[19:27] <odder> Slart: I am however unable to do it ith avidemux, dunno why
[19:28] <Roasted> Jack_Sparrow - I've never had a problem getting it to work. The only thing I've had a problem with is booting if I restored Vista AFTER installing Ubuntu. So if I push the Vista image back to the disk, then install Ubuntu (therefore Grub takes control) I have yet to have an issue with it.
[19:28] <RedDragons> where do i get sinit?
[19:28] <Slart> AVGHelp: I've already asked you a question that you didn't answer.. I can't help you if you dont communicate
[19:28] <Jack_Sparrow> Roasted but have you put vista ANYWHERE besides the first partition of the first drive
[19:28] <Jack_Sparrow> RedDragons It is NOT part of Jaunty nor in our repois
[19:28] <Slart> odder: any special way you want the file to grow? more image data? more sound data?
[19:29] <AVGHelp> slart i want to use avg because it is known and popular and has constant updates, and american consumer this year listed it as the best free antivirus program
[19:29] <komputes> odder: try using ffmpeg from the command line - if not to change its size at least to transcode it into a generic format avidemux may handle better
[19:29] <RedDragons> ok
[19:29] <Slart> AVGHelp: I didn't ask about that
[19:29] <tomas_> hola alguien me podria ayudar
[19:29] <Roasted> Jack_Sparrow - I understand what you are saying, but Clonezilla LiveCD has the op tion to save the disk or the partition only. If I push the partition only back to the disk, Vista gets named to that partition accordingly.
[19:29] <odder> Slart: aaah, sorry - I wasn't perfectly clear - I want to resize it [the resolution]
[19:29] <JosefAssad> AVGHelp: if sebsebseb REALLY wanted to help you, he'd just give AVG to you.
[19:29] <Slart> AVGHelp: I asked if you knew how to start the software using a terminal
[19:29] <Jack_Sparrow> Roasted Good luck
[19:29]  * JosefAssad takes cover
[19:29] <RedDragons> so what your saying is ubunbu doesn't have sinit
[19:29] <matreya6> AVGHelp, What has bothered me with AVG is that produces too many false positives and can't clean files, only delete them. On a positive note, it does have a small mem footprint
[19:29] <Slart> odder: hmm.. let me check
[19:29] <odder> komputes: I got it in avi, to be honest :)
[19:30] <sebsebseb> JosefAssad: uh? and heh?
[19:30] <AVGHelp> slart i do not know how to start antivirus from a terminal
[19:30] <chaos2fu> hi everybody, can someone tell me how to become the owner to a file in the etc-folder?
[19:30] <Roasted> Jack_Sparrow - Shouldn't be too bad. I did this last month when my darn Seagate drive gave out.
[19:30] <Jack_Sparrow> np
[19:30] <komputes> odder: avi can be many things
[19:30] <odder> chaos2fu: grant you the right through the command line
[19:30] <Jack_Sparrow> !chown
[19:30] <Slart> AVGHelp: hmm.. then it's hard to create menu items for it.. you might want to check the documentation for some info on how to start it..
[19:30] <sysdoc> AVGHelp, are you looking for a way to create a launcher for the AVG pgm?
[19:30] <Roasted> I just don't understand how I had this same exact setup for the last 8 months and only in the last 2 days I started getting error 18 with grub like that.
[19:30] <AVGHelp> matreya6 do you know how to create a button so that it shows up in applications --- accesories
[19:30] <komputes> odder: it's more of a container than an actual format
[19:31] <AVGHelp> sysdoc yes i am
[19:31] <sebsebseb> AVGHelp: probably after a log out, it will show there
[19:31] <odder> komputes: I am not a video-file expert.avidemux tells me its xvid4
[19:31] <AVGHelp> sysdoc one should have been auto created but it wasent
[19:31] <sysdoc> AVGHelp, eyeball these instructions: http://www.ubuntugeek.com/install-avg-antivirus-in-ubuntu-desktop.html
[19:31] <chaos2fu> can u please tell me how odder? im total newbie in linux
[19:31] <AVGHelp> sysdoc also i tried this but it failed https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Antivirus/Avg
[19:31] <sebsebseb> chaos2fu: why do you want to be owner of that file?
[19:31] <matreya6> AVGHelp, Sure, just use the menu editor under System => Preferences => Main Menu
[19:31] <AVGHelp> sebsebseb i tried to log out no luck
[19:31] <sebsebseb> AVGHelp: no luck???
[19:31] <AVGHelp> matreya6 yes i did that but it was not there
[19:32] <komputes> AVGHelp: have you read the following guides: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Security#Anti-Virus
[19:32] <odder> chaos2fu: somebody pointed you already, try chown
[19:32] <AVGHelp> sebsebseb i tried to log out but at login it was still not there the button
[19:32] <joss> isn't there a way to give prefix to aptitude or apt-get , seems dpkg -i takes it?
[19:32] <chaos2fu> im having trouble with the nvidia x server settings... it wont save the configuration file so every time i restart the computer i have to go into nvidia again and tell it that i want two displays??
[19:33] <komputes> odder: well if it's xvid try changing it to another format using ffmpeg - to get more info on ffmpeg, open a terminal and type "man ffmpeg"
[19:33] <Flannel> joss: To do what?
[19:33] <AVGHelp> komputes that is what i did read here but for some reason it failed https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Antivirus/Avg
[19:33] <odder> Slart: I am sorry -- seems to be working, screwed up again
[19:33] <Slart> odder: oh.. you found out how to do it?
[19:33] <ring0> chaos2fu: try running nvidia-settings with gksu in front
[19:33] <Dr_Willis> chaos2fu:  run the nvidia-settings tool as root 'gksu nvidia-settings' the menu item for somereason dont ask for the su rights.
[19:33] <odder> komputes: thanks for pointing me to this
[19:33] <joss> Flannel, to install qt to another directory
[19:33] <matreya6> AVGHelp, even if the menu editor in Gnome is a awkward program, it does seem to do it's job when creating menu shortcuts
[19:33] <komputes> AVGHelp: try the one i sent you, it explains better what viruses are out there - either way the system is secure enough that if you stay safe and down't download executables from websites you should be good...
[19:34] <AVGHelp> matreya6 i do not follow what do you mean
[19:34] <odder> Slart: well, I have changed the video format to xvid4 again, cause for some unknown reason simple copying the video and resizing it didn't work
[19:34] <chaos2fu> Dr_Willis: how do i run it as a root?
[19:34] <joss> Flannel, though apt-get will surely clean it away again...there are some changes between 4.3 and 4.5..
[19:34] <Slart> odder: oh.. ok
[19:34] <AVGHelp> komputes yes i udnerstand that argument it is very nice but still even though linux is way safer i want an antivirus program and i want avg ;)
[19:34] <chaos2fu> sorry, but I am total new to linux...:-(
[19:34] <Dr_Willis> chaos2fu:  I allready told you how --->   reread -->  run the nvidia-settings tool as root 'gksu nvidia-settings' the menu item for somereason dont ask for the su rights.
[19:35] <AVGHelp> komputes do you know how to create a button for avg?
[19:35] <matreya6> AVGHelp, care to join me fro a private session?
[19:35] <Dr_Willis> chaos2fu:  the terminal is our friend. :)
[19:35] <Dr_Willis> !gksu
[19:35] <AVGHelp> matreya6 of course
[19:35] <sebsebseb> !pm |  matreya6
[19:35] <sysdoc> AVGHelp, I gave you a link to a page with explicit instruction on how to do what you want
[19:35] <AVGHelp> sysdoc they did not work
[19:35] <sebsebseb> AVGHelp: with Linux you should be more concerned about running bad commands, than getting viruses!
[19:36] <komputes> AVGHelp: I've had bad experience with avg and recommend clam av - they basically both scan, none of them does heuristics, so whats the point, right ;)
[19:36] <Tasem> There are no effective viruses in ubuntu. Basically they die on their own
[19:36] <Dr_Willis> Heh - the end user doing 'admin tasks wrongly' is more of a danger to a linux box.. then any viruses out there
[19:36] <AVGHelp> sebsebseb i am equally concerned with all problems i do not discrimanate any problem all problems are equall to me ;)
[19:36] <odder> AVGHelp: I'd recommed ClamAV, too -- seems to be the best for now
[19:37] <komputes> AVGHelp: and antivuruses don't necessarily protect against exploits
[19:37] <breadtk> @odder: Do you know if ClamAV auto scans all the files I would download (ftp/sftp/firefox)?
[19:37] <chaos2fu> Dr_willis: ok sorry man, im installing the gksu now...
[19:37] <sebsebseb> AVGHelp: the only way to  make sure a malicious program is truely  removed, is to re install the OS
[19:38] <komputes> breadtk: not automatically, every time i used it it was a manual scan
[19:38] <icedtea> does ubuntu 9 not have gui support for wifi? Where do I get a list of networks to join?
[19:38] <Tasem> Uh, I need some help with xorg crashing. It happens like maybe every 10~20 minutes, and it started happening after I installed Wacom tools for my bamboo fun tablet
[19:38] <odder> breadtk: try http://clamav.net/doc/latest/html/node26.html
[19:38] <breadtk> komputes: k thought so. Thats prolly the biggest downside of it.
[19:38] <AVGHelp> odder there is something called virus scanner which comes from applications add remove and it has clamav in it description but it does not actively scan by itself all the files that are in motion
[19:38] <breadtk> odder: looking
[19:38] <komputes> icedtea: the icon of two computers, top right
[19:39] <chaos2fu> cool, it worked... can i run every applications with the gksu?
[19:39] <Tasem> No one knows anything about this? :C
[19:39] <komputes> breadtk: you can also schedule it, or you can easily create a nautilus script that will allow you to rightclick > scan
[19:39] <tomas_> alguien que able espaûÝol
[19:39] <Slart> !details | Tasem
[19:39] <icedtea> komputes: I don't have that. I do have a systray icon with bars on it but its X'd out
[19:39] <tomas_> para poder ayudarme
[19:39] <breadtk> komputes: I was thinking about making a cron for it.
[19:39] <sebsebseb> Slart: didn't know about that one,  that will be useful :)  instead of asking them with?
[19:39] <komputes> icedtea: try a guest session, or try logging in as another user
[19:39] <AVGHelp> sebsebseb even better is simply to destroy the computer ;)
[19:39] <guntbert> chaos2fu: you can but you *should not* - it could be dangerous to youe system
[19:40] <guntbert> *your
[19:40] <Slart> sebsebseb: =)
[19:40] <komputes> AVGHelp: thats the spirit!
[19:40] <chaos2fu> ok i see...! and the command sudo is it the application add/remove or?
[19:40] <Slart> Tasem: also.. try checking the logs (var/log/syslog) when one of these crashes occur.. there might be some error message
[19:40] <sebsebseb> Slart: yeah there was a guy earlier, I had to ask him a few questions,  then he gave up  when I give him the Grub  bot link and that, and he is like  I am putting Windows on now,  Ubuntu sucks,   what ashame
[19:41] <Tasem> Oh. Well, I'm running Jaunty Jackalope on a Macbook 5,1. I AM running compiz, but since the problems started with installing the Tablet Im hoping its just that and I wont have to give Compiz off. The problem being that X server crashes on me. I heard that there were some Manual Device Input codes in etc/X11/x.org that are conflicting with Wacom tools, but I have no idea what they are and Im scared of changing anything I shouldnt.
[19:41] <mobi-sheep> AVGHelp: Weren't you here last night? :X
[19:41] <guntbert> !es | tomas_
[19:41] <sebsebseb> Slart: shame when your helping someone and they just give up
[19:41] <AVGHelp> mobi-sheep most likely many installations ago
[19:41] <tomas_> ok
[19:41] <AVGHelp> mobi-sheep linux is hard :(
[19:42] <Slart> sebsebseb: well.. those are the breaks one has to live with.. at least every once in a while you get someone that is actually interested in learning
[19:42] <sebsebseb> Slart: true
[19:42] <komputes> and AVG is not open source :(
[19:42] <icedtea> komputes: still don't have that. Are you running 9.04?
[19:42] <koonde> salam irani hast?
[19:42] <komputes> icedtea: yup
[19:42] <Slart> Tasem: can you pastebin the output from /var/log/Xorg.0.log too ?
[19:42] <mobi-sheep> AVGHelp: Linux is [so] fun.  What problem are you having?
[19:42] <lightbricko> When downloading/installing a package, should I look for a package with "x86-64" in the name? Or should I use the one with "i386" or "amd64"?
[19:42] <Dr_Willis> AVGHelp:  whats hard is trying to keep the 4+ windows machines up for the faimly when they cant understand  how to avoide malware.
[19:42] <Slart> !pastebin | Tasem
[19:42] <koonde> ???
[19:42] <koonde> ????
[19:42] <Slart> !ir
[19:42] <sebsebseb> AVGHelp: that's a point,  code that is opensource/freesoftware    is usellay more secure, because they can't  hide bad code in it, and  loads of developers  doing stuff with the code
[19:42] <koonde> koskeshaaaaa ba  shoma ham...akhe koskholaa ubuntu che kossheriye?
[19:43] <komputes> icedtea: how about when you boot from the Jaunty LiveCD, do you get the network manager icon?
[19:43] <Slart> *ahdebiansshehm*.. open source.. safe... ;)
[19:43] <AVGHelp> mobi-sheep i downloaded avg antivirus from their home page linux version deb, i dubble clicked it and installed but the button will not show up in applications accesories and i tried to do what it said here on this link but it did not work https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Antivirus/Avg
[19:43] <icedtea> komputes: whats the network manager icon? The systray icon with network bars on it?
[19:44] <Tasem> Thanks, Slart. Also, I cant check the var because when it crashes, I cant do ANYTHING. The entire GUI locks up and I have to force shutdown. Not even restarting X works.
[19:44] <AVGHelp> sebsebseb yes that is nice but i want more protection
[19:44] <Slart> hmm.. why does the ubuntu help page on AVG recommend running "sudo gedit" ?? (https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Antivirus/Avg)
[19:44] <brembo> hello
[19:44] <sebsebseb> AVGHelp: maybe look into OpenBSD or something like that  then, that's meant to be one of the most secure OS's
[19:44] <sebsebseb> AVGHelp: ,but that's not for newbies
[19:44] <AVGHelp> sebsebseb i am a computer newbie
[19:44] <sebsebseb> AVGHelp: that's for expeirenced computer users
[19:45] <brembo> anyone know why on my sound recorder i can see only Capture on the list of source?
[19:45] <mobi-sheep> AVGHelp: The page "Antivirus/Avg" is last edited 2008-06-27 10:15:32.
[19:45] <AVGHelp> mobi-sheep yes i know
[19:45] <Slart> Tasem: I think they removed the shortcut for restarting X in jaunty.. ( type !dontzap for more info ).. but you can try restarting in safe mode.. with out gnome.. then try reading those files
[19:45] <sebsebseb> AVGHelp: yes exactly, which is why you think it's so important to have antivirus in  Ubuntu, where as  experiended users such as myself, know it's not needed
[19:46] <Slart> Tasem: you can also use "pastebinit" or "webboard" to pastebin files from command line
[19:46] <AVGHelp> mobi-sheep i looked at this page as well it is from amrch 2009 http://techreviews.in/free-avg-anti-virus-for-ubuntu/
[19:46] <sebsebseb> AVGHelp: I have a link that  you may find quite useful
[19:46] <Tasem> I know, I used dontzap and reactivate it. It still doesnt work when it locks up though. Also, Slart, Im not sure I understand this Pastebin thing
[19:47] <AVGHelp> sebsebseb i just want to know how to create the button
[19:47] <Tasem> Oh wait, nevermind.      What do you mean by pasting from the command line?
[19:48] <AVGHelp> mobi-sheep do you know how to create a button?
[19:48] <Slart> Tasem: basically.. at a command line you run something like "pastebinit /var/log/Xorg.0.log" then it will upload that file to a pastebin and print out the url.. you then tell us that url and we can check the log file
[19:48] <mobi-sheep> AVGHelp: Do you know the terminal command to run AntiVirus?  You can add it using Menu Editor or create a Launcher (shortcut link).
[19:48] <Tasem> Oh, allright
[19:48] <AVGHelp> mobi-sheep no i do not know the terminal command
[19:49] <sebsebseb> AVGHelp: by the way antivirus, and antispyware and such  isn't even needed on Windows, if people know what they are doing :)
[19:49] <Slart> Tasem: let me give you an example.. http://pastebin.com/f271827ec   that's my Xorg.0.log ..
[19:49] <slipttees> http://slipttees.wordpress.com/
[19:49] <byte^> If I have Ubuntu installed on a partition and it is not a LiveCD, can I remove Ubiquity?
[19:49] <sebsebseb> AVGHelp: anyway  Linux is not Windows  http://linux.oneandoneis2.org/LNW.htm
[19:49] <sebsebseb> AVGHelp: now that's a good read :)
[19:49] <guntbert> slipttees: not here please
[19:49] <Tasem> Oh, I see. Allright, let me try to do it
[19:49] <icedtea> well I can't find a gui tool in ubuntu 9.04 to join a wifi network... anyone know of a filename to start the gui chooser?
[19:49] <Slart> Tasem: it's a very easy way to share log files.. no copy pasting in irc-windows and such
[19:49] <slipttees> guntbert: sorry, window erro
[19:50] <Slart> Tasem: you might need to install pastebinit first though.. just sudo apt-get install pastebinit will do it
[19:50] <RedDragons> i'm having troble geting xinit to run
[19:50] <Tasem> Yeah, thanks for this, Im still pretty new at Linux O:
[19:50] <mobi-sheep> AVGHelp: Do ALT + F2.  Put in "gksudo avggui"    Did AVG show up?
[19:50] <Tasem> Im installing it now, actually
[19:50] <guntbert> slipttees: np :-)
[19:50] <slipttees> guntbert: ;-)
[19:50] <byte^> If I have Ubuntu installed on a partition and it is not a LiveCD, can I remove Ubiquity?
[19:50] <breadtk> yes
[19:51] <shawnmstout> hey can someone explain to me the difference between gnome and kde?  is one more versatile then the other, does 1 have more support/applications/configurable then the other?
[19:51] <AVGHelp> mobi-sheep it did not show up
[19:51] <shawnmstout> i have not been able to find online these type of answers
[19:51] <Slart> shawnmstout: they look different.. that's about it
[19:51] <Tasem> http://pastebin.com/f1255a761 my Var log
[19:51] <Tasem>
[19:51] <Slart> shawnmstout: some people prefer one.. other people prefer the other one
[19:51] <breadtk> shawnstout: gnome, is much more supported.        Kde: good in its own light.
[19:52] <byte^> Look at screenshots for KDE vs Gnome
[19:52] <byte^> you can pretty much run applications from either environment
[19:52] <shawnmstout> byte, i know what each look like
[19:52] <byte^> But if you use Gnome, KDE apps may look differently and vice versa
[19:52] <ror> kde is ugly as sin ;o, or at least kde apps run in gnome are :)
[19:52] <mobi-sheep> AVGHelp: You're aware that AVG AntiVirus "can only detect viruses; and cannot remove them from files." ?
[19:52] <byte^> ror: Agreed :3
[19:52] <sebsebseb> ror: I disagree,   KDE apps in Gnome that's fine for me
[19:53] <ror> really? I find most KDE apps close to unusable in their ugliness
[19:53] <AVGHelp> mobi-sheep to remove a virus froma  file is very hard so you remove the whole file the same goes for calmAV
[19:53] <shawnmstout> what about customization?
[19:53] <shawnmstout> im in gnome right now
[19:53] <ror> the whole "sense" of where stuff is in their menus makes no sense to me either
[19:54] <shawnmstout> ok, 1 more question, is there different themes to gnome?
[19:54] <Slart> Tasem: ok... nothing really strange in that file.. it's a mac mini?
[19:54] <mobi-sheep> shawnmstout: Yes.
[19:54] <shawnmstout> and where is the best place to find these at?
[19:54] <Ciros> shawnmstout:  goto gnome-look.org
[19:54] <shawnmstout> ok
[19:54] <Tasem> No, Macbook 5,1. Not pro
[19:54] <shawnmstout> thanks guys
[19:54] <kvams> nc
[19:54] <kvams> Hello
[19:54] <shawnmstout> oh and customizing menu options
[19:54] <Ciros> shawnmstout:   you may need to install additional packages, but it is simple enough
[19:54] <byte^> Menu options?
[19:54] <sebsebseb> AVGHelp: if your so concerned about security, you may want to check out the Backtrack Live CD, it has many security tools.   I haven't used it yet
[19:54] <shawnmstout> i wanted to add my own "shortcut" menu for common tasks that i do
[19:54] <kvams> i need help
[19:55] <sebsebseb> !details | kvams
[19:55] <byte^> I don't know, personally I am on Crunchbang which combines Openbox and GNOME... Works pretty well.
[19:55] <byte^> Ubuntu by itself should be just as configurable.
[19:55] <AVGHelp> sebsebseb i just want a button for avg
[19:55] <Tasem> http://pastebin.com/f7b0e40fc
[19:55] <Tasem>  this would be my xorg.conf
[19:55] <mobi-sheep> AVGHelp: What is wrong with ClamAV?  It's in the repos.  Getting it from non-repos only give people more issues.    Do you see where I'm going with this?  That's why we have repos.  We know it is safe and it does work.
[19:55] <Slart> Tasem: ok.. those other logs.. you can try something like this "tail -n 30 /var/log/syslog | pastebinit" .. it will send the last 30 lines from the syslog to a pastebin, just like before
[19:55] <shawnmstout> yes, example, i run a tftp/pxe/dhcp/mysql/php/nfs server
[19:55] <Ciros> shawnmstout:   to be honest i havent tried, though I am sure that there is a way....give me a few minutes and will poke around
[19:55] <root1992> hi I have a problem with the VLC he plays only one second from a DVD (movie) I have Ubuntu 9.04 64 bit and dvdnav libdvdcss
[19:56] <shawnmstout> so there are config files i want to access quickly
[19:56] <sebsebseb> AVGHelp: open it from terinal.  whatever it's called and hit enter     make a shortcut on the desktop for it maybe if you know where it installed
[19:56] <shawnmstout> ciros, thanks
[19:56] <sebsebseb> mobi-sheep: ClavmAV is to Linux like for him  :d
[19:56] <Kvams> install http://gnome-look.org/content/show.php/CONKY-colors?content=92328 and it dosent work :/
[19:56] <Slart> root1992: mm.. dvd's doesn't work for me in jaunty either.. no matter how many decss packages or scripts I install/run
[19:56] <AVGHelp> mobi-sheep when i type in clamav in appliacations add remove i get something called virus scanner, and that is a nice scanner but it does not actively run the background and protect me from all my clicks
[19:56] <shawnmstout> by adding all of these in 1 common place would make it nice for myself
[19:56] <Tasem> http://pastebin.com/f4b914e62
[19:56] <Tasem> There O:
[19:56] <gordonjcp> AVGHelp: What exactly are you trying to do?
[19:57] <Strife89> What's the command for showing what hardware is availible but unmounted?
[19:57] <Kvams> install http://gnome-look.org/content/show.php/CONKY-colors?content=92328 and it dosent work :/
[19:57] <Slart> Tasem: what time was the last crash?
[19:57] <dylan_> anyone know how to generate modelines so I get get the full 1280x1024 like my monitor was intended to do ?
[19:57] <Tasem> Maybe 30 minutes ago or so now
[19:57] <dylan_> or an app that will auto-detect the video card / screen
[19:57] <Strife89> I want to run fsck on a media player but I'm not sure of its unmounted location.
[19:57] <Tasem> Im using my mouse right now so that might be part of it, but otherwise Im not sure
[19:57] <shawnmstout> this might sound bad, but im using a suse distro, still the help here is sooooooooo much better, and much more friendlier then other channels, so i hope you dont mind me asking in here even though im not using ubuntu
[19:57] <Slart> Tasem: hmm.. try the same command but change 30 to 90 or somethnig like that
[19:57] <dylan_> the max resolution in xubuntu's settings is 1024 x 768
[19:58] <AVGHelp> gordonjcp i downloaded avg anti virus for linux for their web page in then dubble clicked to install it and it installed but it did not create a button in applications accessories and i want a button
[19:58] <mobi-sheep> AVGHelp: Linux and Windows are entirely different.   Windows are *easier* to use and *easier* to get destroyed because linux can be [too] frustrating for some people.
[19:58] <Strife89> What's the command for showing what hardware is available but unmounted?
[19:58] <root1992> Slart :( You give me hope ;) I think I must wait for a update
[19:58] <Tasem> http://pastebin.com/f348d2d66
[19:58] <Flannel> shawnmstout: SuSe and Ubuntu are rather different.  The help we provide likely won't be able to be useful for you.
[19:58] <thiebaude> shawnmstout: np, we are here to help if we can
[19:59] <Slart> root1992: mm.. I've tried reinstalling all kinds of packages without any success.. if you find a solution please tell me
[19:59] <shawnmstout> well since this is interface questions, not os questions, i didnt think i would really matter
[19:59] <mobi-sheep> AVGHelp: I can download a virus and click on it.  It cannot touch my system.  I attached the virus and sent out to my Windows buddies.  They'll face all sort of problems if they run the file.
[19:59] <shawnmstout> commands would be different however
[19:59] <shawnmstout> but i know the changes there
[19:59] <Tasem> thats basically just describing my startup
[19:59] <Ciros> shawnmstout:   have you tried right clicking the gnome[Distribution] logo, then selecting edit menus?
[19:59] <AVGHelp> mobi-sheep i understand you view point all i want is a button mkay
[19:59] <Strife89> Anyone? What's the command for showing what hardware is available but unmounted?
[19:59] <gordonjcp> AVGHelp: it's only for servers
[20:00] <wildc4rd> is there a separate channel for eeebuntu? or are questions regarding it OK here
[20:00] <_Pix> hi
[20:00] <Slart> Tasem: ok, we're getting closer.. try.. 180 instead..
[20:00] <sebsebseb> wildc4rd: you can ask here
[20:00] <gordonjcp> AVGHelp: you might use it to scan files on a server that has MS Windows machines connected to it
[20:00] <GNU_D> Hi, my friend has a problem with grub, he just installed win7(I shall kill him for that) and now the mbr is replaced, we tried to reinstall it manually, grub says it's ok, but now grub frezes on boot, is there another way to reinstall grub from the live cd ?
[20:00] <shawnmstout> ciros, well i am guessing that i first have to build my interface for the menu, then tie it in
[20:00] <Kvams> noen fra norge?
[20:00] <Slart> Tasem: it's still just showing the part where you boot up.. starting network cards and such
[20:00] <Dr_Willis> cool.. I never knew avg had a free linux version... gotta check it out
[20:00] <gordonjcp> !no | Kvams
[20:00] <sebsebseb> Dr_Willis: your joking right?
[20:00] <Tasem> Allright, i'll set it higher
[20:01] <sebsebseb> Dr_Willis: I mean about checking it out?
[20:01] <Dr_Willis> sebsebseb:  may as well :)
[20:01] <Flannel> wildc4rd: Generally Ubuntu questions here, if you think they may be EEE specific, #ubuntu-eeepc would likely be the best place
[20:01] <AVGHelp> gordonjcp are you saying that this link here gives an antivurs program only for servers http://free.avg.com/download?prd=afl
[20:01] <nmvictor> GNU_D: I could try to help,mind if i PM you?
[20:01] <Dr_Willis> sebsebseb:   see if i can put it on a live cd/thumbdrive install as a 'scan moms pc' toolkit
[20:01] <GNU_D> nmvictor: go ahead
[20:01] <sebsebseb> Dr_Willis: ah for Windows viruses yeah?
[20:01] <shawnmstout> ciros, am i right about that?
[20:01] <gordonjcp> AVGHelp: can't look at that link just now, no web browser
[20:01] <Strife89> I'll ask one last time. What's the command for showing what hardware is available but unmounted?
[20:01] <Dr_Willis> sebsebseb:  of course. :)
[20:01] <shawnmstout> cause how can you add something that doesnt exist yet
[20:02] <Slart> Strife89: I don't think there is one
[20:02] <gordonjcp> AVGHelp: are you running a file server for Windows computers?
[20:02] <sebsebseb> Dr_Willis: pretty sure I seen you here before, so unlike  AVGHelp, you know that Linux viruses well, what Linux virsues?   I think there was like one that hit the wild in the past, that would no longer work
[20:02] <shawnmstout> unless you can just add in a blank menu item
[20:02] <shawnmstout> and build from there
[20:02] <Slart> Strife89: that might be the reason you're not getting an answer
[20:02] <Strife89> Slart: Oh. ^^;
[20:02] <AVGHelp> gordonjcp ok i dissagree with your statment that it is only for servers because ther eis an instruction page in ubuntu help for isntalling it which did not work for me and i have read about installations of it on the net which also did not work for me ;)
[20:02] <Dr_Willis> sebsebseb:  i made my own puppy-linux live-cd last year as a 'linux-live-cd-av-scanner-tool' :) to give out to friends.. time i updated it.
[20:02] <Tasem> http://pastebin.com/f727d7848
[20:02] <Slart> Strife89: lshw will show you your hardware.. but I don't think you can limit it to just showing stuff that isn't mounted
[20:02] <gordonjcp> AVGHelp: it only makes sense on servers
[20:03] <sebsebseb> Dr_Willis: I see
[20:03] <Xtf> Is the new ubuntu good?
[20:03] <Ciros> shawnmstout:   indeed, but once it exsists you can click new item, then point to the file. to allow you to open up and what not.
[20:03] <sebsebseb> Dr_Willis: sounds like a nice thing to do for friends, but  if you converted them to Ubuntu you would probably be an even better friend :d
[20:03] <AVGHelp> gordonjcp i am running ubuntu 9.04 on a nromal computer it is the only operating system on this computer and that is all
[20:03] <sebsebseb> Xtf: it's alright yeah
[20:03] <shawnmstout> ciros, ok, just wanted to confirm
[20:03] <sebsebseb> Xtf: not that differnet from 8.10
[20:03] <Xtf> Jaunty?
[20:03] <sebsebseb> yes
[20:03] <Strife89> Slart: Basically I just need to find where a piece of hardware is that I've unmounted.
[20:03] <Ciros> shawnmstout:   it's all good :D
[20:03] <shawnmstout> wonder if gnome-look would have any info on it
[20:03] <shawnmstout> thanks man
[20:04] <Slart> Tasem: still not enough.. go for.. 500 or something
[20:04] <AVGHelp> gordonjcp but it provides an active scanner scanner in the background for viruses and that is what i am after
[20:04] <mobi-sheep> AVGHelp: You installed the .deb -- Right?  It installed successfully or faced a problem at a point?  I gave you ALT+F2 --> gksudo avggui and that seems to be working for many on the forum I'm reading right now.
[20:04] <Slart> Strife89: are we talking about a hard drive?
[20:04] <Strife89> Slart: No, a flash drive.
[20:04] <box02> Hi someone help me
[20:04] <AVGHelp> mobi-sheep yes
[20:04] <sebsebseb> AVGHelp: as far as I know   AVG for Linux only scans for Windows viruses, and Windows viruses won't work on a Linux distro
[20:04] <sebsebseb> AVGHelp:  well they might a litlte bit in Wine if you install that, but otherwise no
[20:04] <sebsebseb> !wine
[20:05] <deany> I use avast myself.. well , when I say use..  I hardly ever run it.
[20:05] <gordonjcp> AVGHelp: you don't need that
[20:05] <Charle> Hello?
[20:05] <Slart> Strife89: why not start the gnome partition editor and see if you can see the drive there
[20:05] <mobi-sheep> gordonjcp: AVGHelp insists...
[20:05] <gordonjcp> AVGHelp: you only need to scan for viruses if you're serving files to Windows machines
[20:05] <Charle> Anyone here able to read me?
[20:05] <sebsebseb> gordonjcp: a few of us have done that for a while with him now, but he won't listen, he must have his  AVG shortcut
[20:05] <gordonjcp> !ask | Charle
[20:05] <Slart> Tasem: sorry for all the pastebinning you have to do.. I really should have picked a higher number to begin with
[20:05] <shawnmstout> ohhhh, gnome-look looks like all of the theme are based on ubuntu
[20:06] <Tasem> http://pastebin.com/f41679f0d
[20:06] <Tasem>  I think its still in the startup phase, but you'd have to tell me
[20:06] <bremboi> !virtualiserz
[20:06] <bremboi> !virtualizerz
[20:06] <Tasem> Oh, not at all. You're the one helping me! Besides, I find this whole thing rather fun, in my own way
[20:06] <AVGHelp> mobi-sheep you asked me if i took the deb file i took a screenshot to show you http://img36.imageshack.us/img36/5117/screenshotc.png
[20:06] <shawnmstout> found for mine
[20:06] <shawnmstout> thanks guys
[20:06] <Slart> Tasem: well.. you're right.. it's still botting up.. try 1000
[20:06] <sebsebseb> For some reason    by the sounds of things,   AVGHelp  's     AVG install didn't add itself to the menu, and  a log out woudn't even  put it there. so guys  help him get a shortcut?
[20:06] <Slart> *booting
[20:07] <mobi-sheep> AVGHelp: Well, I'm looking... but to no avail.  Ask yourself this question -- Perfect security... Does it really exist?
[20:07] <gharz> guys, how do i play a .snd file (audio)? i checked google and it says most of these files are MAC audio files. i tried playing it with VLC but it can not play. anyone?
[20:07] <AVGHelp> mobi-sheep thanks for the effort it is the thought that counts
[20:08] <Slart> mobi-sheep: I think the poor guy has been tortured about that enough.. can't we just help him with the menu's if he wants to run AVG?
[20:08] <AVGHelp> mobi-sheep there are other antivirus program out ther avast antivirus has an option for linux as well ;)
[20:08] <gordonjcp> AVGHelp: all viruses are for Microsoft Windows only, and won't affect Linux systems
[20:08] <dylan_> anyone know how to generate modelines so I get get the full 1280x1024 like my monitor was intended to do ? in XP I get this no probs
[20:08] <BachgenBach> evening, looking for some help with flash !
[20:08] <mobi-sheep> Slart: He doesn't know the command and I looked up.  I gave him a command to test if it [does] work but nothing.  We can't have Launcher / Menu without a right command. :<
[20:08] <AVGHelp> gordonjcp i dissagree
[20:08] <Tasem> http://pastebin.com/f6f41715d
[20:08] <dylan_> or if there is an app to force this resolution, I don't know anything about xorg.conf or modelines
[20:09] <sebsebseb> gordonjcp: well and some for Mac OS X,   and you can probably build something that deletes home yourself,  I remember there was some article
[20:09] <Slart> mobi-sheep: true.. I was thinking more about the "perfect security stuff" =)
[20:09] <dylan_> or how to get vert/horiz refresh rates
[20:09] <pepim> noob to this and never used ubuntu befote so if someone has the patiants to help me i would be gratefull
[20:09] <gordonjcp> sebsebseb: you'd have to go to a *lot* of trouble
[20:09] <Jack_Sparrow> dylan_ Provide people with details about what video card chipset and which release of ubuntu you are using
[20:09] <sebsebseb> gordonjcp: yep
[20:09] <gordonjcp> sebsebseb: the last virus I ever dealt with was on Atari TOS
[20:09] <AlsaPCM> how can i configure my webcam in ubuntu ?
[20:09] <Slart> Tasem: that's enough.. now lets see if it says anything about crashing
[20:09] <Jack_Sparrow> !webcam
[20:10] <sebsebseb> AlsaPCM: cheese
[20:10] <sebsebseb> AlsaPCM: that program
[20:10] <prassyy> i upgraded to ubuntu 9 and it screwed my system -- too slow
[20:10] <mobi-sheep> gordonjcp: Analog --> He would hire a bouncer to physically watch his laptop... but the problem?  He don't trust the bouncer either.  A Paranoid fellow. :)
[20:10] <prassyy> is there something that can be done
[20:10] <AlsaPCM> no camera found
[20:10] <lianimator> can't play YoVille from FB in firefox. any solution?
[20:10] <prassyy> and besides it has completely made my amarok useless
[20:10] <AlsaPCM> sebsebseb, no camera found
[20:10] <gordonjcp> lianimator: what's YoVille and what's FB?
[20:10] <BachgenBach> anyone else having problems with flash after carrying out latest version of flash?
[20:10] <Jack_Sparrow> prassyy There is no downgrading, restore from a previous backup
[20:10] <AVGHelp> mobi-sheep that is a good statement ;)
[20:10] <lianimator> FB is facebook. yoville is a flash game.
[20:10] <sebsebseb> AlsaPCM: I can't really help since don't have a web cam
[20:11] <rockee> Need help n support... can anybody allow me to send PM.... plz
[20:11] <Jack_Sparrow> BachgenBach latest version from our repos or some version you found online
[20:11] <gharz> guys, i've installed a .deb file by double clicking it... how do i remove and purge this application?
[20:11] <mobi-sheep> Slart: Yup.  That's right.  You heard NASA interns tried to steal the moon rocks?  It was in the news few days ago.  NASA even designed the protocol to prevent this from happening and yet it still happen. :)
[20:11] <AlsaPCM> anyone can help on webcam configuration ?
[20:11] <BachgenBach> i had flash working in firefox, i then uploaded and it is not working.
[20:11] <sebsebseb> !details |  rockee
[20:11] <Slart> mobi-sheep: tried? didn't they succeed? I just read the story briefly
[20:11] <sebsebseb> !pm |  rockee
[20:11] <gordonjcp> AVGHelp: put it this way, I've been using Linux for quite a while now and never even considered an antivirus program
