[12:01] <un_operateur> UPC, aptitude is easier to type out -- apti<TAB> as opposed to apt-g<TAB> for apt-get :)
[12:01] <Pelo> I have a full copy of my /home/user folder on an other drive,  how would I go about restorring my evolution setting,  just copying over the folders in the user dir doesn'T seem to work
[12:01] <malikeye> LjL: cool, I have to do some more reading about the debian package mgmt stuff.... usually it's either portage or rpm for me
[12:01] <blinx> hm
[12:02] <malikeye> Pelo: are you copying the .* stuff too ?
[12:02] <PriceChild> blinx, sudo aptitude install python2.5
[12:02] <blinx> un_operateur: but now a lot of packages I need will be removed
[12:02] <malikeye> cp * doesn't copy the hidden stuff
[12:02] <berzoid> I have a dualboot here and need to have a data partition to which both windows and ubuntu can write. would you advise me to make it FAT32, ext3 with the ext3 driver installed in windows or NTFS with the beta driver for NTFS write acces on ubuntu?
[12:02] <Pelo> malikeye , yes
[12:02] <un_operateur> blinx, well, there you go -- you have your warning
[12:02] <cactus_sediento> anybody knows how to set firestarter for loading on startup? obvius ways failed in my hands....
[12:02] <malikeye> Pelo: you try rsync ?
[12:02] <Pelo> hmmm
[12:02] <OkinawaInstructo> berzoid: i would suggest using fat32, windows does not see ext3
[12:03] <malikeye> I always use rsync in place of cp :)
[12:03] <malikeye> looks cooler
[12:03] <PriceChild> cactus_sediento, add it so system>preferences>sessions as "gksudo synaptic"
[12:03] <berzoid> there is a ext3 driver for windows
[12:03] <thoreauputic> cactus_sediento: it loads by default - you just don't see the admin GUI :)
[12:03] <un_operateur> blinx, too many packages depend on 2.4 (and its a pity debian/ubuntu still have problems with multiple versions of packages)
[12:03] <ifwr> has anyone successfully changed the output directory for abcde?
[12:03] <IndyGUnFreak> there are so many questions here regarding upgrading Ubuntu, or roblems upgrading ubuntu, etc.
[12:03] <thoreauputic> cactus_sediento: see /etc/init.d/firestarter
[12:03] <PriceChild> cactus_sediento, remember that the firewall starts when you boot. And firestarter only monitors things
[12:03] <IndyGUnFreak> It makes me know i made the right choice with a back up and a clean install.
[12:03] <Pelo> malikeye,  I didn'T need to do it for the other folders,  and I don'T honestly know how to use it
[12:03] <cactus_sediento> thanks Price....
[12:04] <un_operateur> firestarter is just a configuration frontend to iptables -- it doesnt monitor anything
[12:04] <OkinawaInstructo> berzoid: ah, something learn something new every day... i would still suggest using fat32
[12:04] <normmac> can anyone help me enable my wireless care without the Fn key?
[12:04] <IndyGUnFreak> has anyone figured out how to change default icons for a certain file type yet?
[12:04] <madman91> how can i install wine.. i cant find it in any repos... their repo doesnt work.... what do i do
[12:04] <IndyGUnFreak> i've racked my brain, and crashed google looking, but i can't find it.
[12:04] <thoreauputic> un_operateur: well, it shows hits etc in the GUI
[12:04] <malikeye> Pelo: so 'ls -la ~ | grep -i evo' returns nothing ?
[12:04] <berzoid> actually, there is an ext2 driver for windows, but ext3 is backwards compatible, http://e2fsprogs.sourceforge.net/
[12:04] <PriceChild> un_operateur, yeah i know sorry, just can't think how to explain it more easily
[12:04] <IndyGUnFreak> madman, are you sure?
[12:04] <Gosha> when i do hidd --serach it wont find anything, but when i do hcitool --search it does .. what is the difference?
[12:04] <Pelo> malikeye,  , you just lost me
[12:04] <cactus_sediento> i like to have a visual thing that tells me that a packet has been blocked....
[12:05] <blinx> if I want to install clearsilver it wants to install python2.4 automatically
[12:05] <blinx> hm
[12:05] <Gosha> hcitool san*
[12:05] <malikeye> run that command
[12:05] <OkinawaInstructo> berzoid: thanks for the site
[12:05] <un_operateur> IndyGUnFreak, yes .. download your favourite icon theme and change the one for .mp3 -- repackage and import using gnome-theme-manager
[12:05] <blinx> have I to install it from src?
[12:05] <Pelo> malikeye,   I draged folders from one location to the other
[12:05] <malikeye> haha
[12:05] <malikeye> ok
[12:05] <IndyGUnFreak> but hten thats gonna change all the other icons i have
[12:05] <berzoid> no thanks okinawainstructo
[12:05] <malikeye> ifwr: my abcde.conf contains : OUTPUTDIR="DIR"
[12:05] <ub12> ifwr yes change the abcde.conf file
[12:06] <normmac> Price Child, you said earlier that i didn't need the Fn key to enable my wireless how can i do it?
[12:06] <un_operateur> IndyGUnFreak, not if you download the same icon theme you are currently using ..
[12:06] <malikeye> Pelo: you know how to use a shell ?
[12:06] <Pelo> malikeye,  this is what I get drwxr-xr-x  8 jean jean    4096 2006-12-23 18:04 .evolution
[12:06] <IndyGUnFreak> no, i mean its gonna change the Home directory icon, etc
[12:06] <malikeye> ok, so it's there
[12:06] <Pelo> malikeye,  barely
[12:06] <cactus_sediento> price are you sure is "gksudo synaptic" the comand? i tried before with "gksudo firestarter" but it did not remaind as a service....a bug?
[12:06] <ifwr> I have done that but it never seems to work, I have tried absolute directories, relative directories, and it just says it cannot move "no such file or directory"
[12:06] <IndyGUnFreak> well, i guess i could just go back and change those back.
[12:06] <dv_> hi

[12:21] <IndyGUnFreak> ok unoperator, those themes, are just basically folders to download.
[12:21] <Intelligitimate> I don't know.

[12:21] <malikeye> haha
[12:21] <IndyGUnFreak> i have the icon i wan, problem is, i want to apply it to one icon, then make all the icons of that file type, that icon.
[12:21] <ubek_> Pelo: i dont hawe cpu command
[12:21] <malikeye> that would be unknown then
[12:21] <malikeye> haha
[12:21] <IndyGUnFreak> maybe i'm just not understanding what you're saying, but all those, just have .ico and png files
[12:21] <malikeye> Intelligitimate: I would try a different player or a different machine to test the file
[12:21] <Pelo> ubek_,   system >admin > system monitor
[12:22] <cafuego_> how's it look on the ipod?
[12:22] <ifwr> malikeye, Thanks a bunch, that fixed the directory problem!  But putting the lame options in quotes only made the other error  line 137: -b 160 -m ......: command not found.  Any thoughts?
[12:23] <ubek_> lol its sth like
[12:23] <malikeye> ifwr: paste your new one
[12:23] <un_operateur> IndyGUnFreak, the themse are not folders -- they are compressed files as tar.gx i think
[12:23] <ubek_> Pelo: on 1 sec from cpu use from 8% its grow to 100%
[12:23] <ubek_> ;]
[12:23] <Intelligitimate> The file plays, the sound is ok, but the video is blurry. You can tell what is sorta happenign though.
[12:23] <Intelligitimate> I am thinking it is just some kind of setting problem in VLC.
[12:23] <IndyGUnFreak> but when you extract them, they ar esimply folders.
[12:23] <cafuego_> Intelligitimate: try it with a different player
[12:23] <malikeye> Intelligitimate: are you talking blurry as in macro blocking or whatever it is ? or is the whole screen out of focus ?
[12:24] <Pelo> ubek_,  which process
[12:24] <IndyGUnFreak> and when i try to9 choose them as a theme, it says it san invalid filetype
[12:24] <Intelligitimate> Um, I can tell what is happening.
[12:24] <Intelligitimate> But not really.
[12:24] <cafuego_> Intelligitimate: do a screenshot and post that
[12:24] <un_operateur> IndyGUnFreak, so what you need to do is download one -- extract all the files - change the ones you want - compress back into an tar.gz archive - and then import them into the theme manager for use

[12:25] <IndyGUnFreak> why does it have to be that difficult?
[12:25] <malikeye> between the = and the "
[12:25] <Intelligitimate> Is this a normal problem? My computer isn't very good, does MP4 take a lot of processing power or something?
[12:25] <ifwr> you can't be serious, THAT is causing the problem?
[12:25] <ifwr> wow
[12:25] <Pelo> ubek_,  click the cpu column header to order the process in order of the cpu usage and keep watching what happens
[12:25] <malikeye> no idea, but it's worth a shot
[12:25] <cafuego_> Intelligitimate: Try a different player or post a screenshot.
[12:25] <ifwr> heh, ok
[12:25] <malikeye> lame is in your path ?
[12:25] <cafuego_> Intelligitimate: We're all just guessing here
[12:25] <joe_> anyone know how to activate middle mouse scrolling in firefox?
[12:25] <Intelligitimate> I don't have a different player that can play MP4.
[12:25] <cafuego_> Intelligitimate: mplayer plays 'em fine
[12:25] <Flannel> Dante123: the other OSs will be there.  If youre installing from the Desktop CD, I'm not sure if ubuntu will reinstall grub or not
[12:26] <Intelligitimate> Does mplayer come with Ubuntu?
[12:26] <Dante123> yes, I am using Desktop CD
[12:26] <thoreauputic> joe_: ? it works by default - do you mean smooth scrolling?
[12:26] <malikeye> joe_: add Option   ZAxisMapping "4 5" to your xorg.conf
[12:26] <IndyGUnFreak> Intelligitimate, i think so, if it doesn't, its in the repos i'm sure
[12:26] <cafuego_> Intelligitimate: you can install it from the repos, yes
[12:26] <baconbacon> Dante123: My guess is grub will be reinstalled, you confirm it at the last installation step
[12:26] <cafuego_> the default is xine only
[12:26] <un_operateur> IndyGUnFreak, right now, thats the only way i know possible -- maybe you can check which theme is used in your gnome-theme-manager -- and then browse to the icons directory in /usr/share/icons looking for the mp3 icon
[12:26] <joe_> no i just mean normal up down thor. will that sort is malikeye?
[12:26] <malikeye> ifwr: 'which lame' ?
[12:26] <gili> i need help
[12:26] <baconbacon> Dante123: before actually _installing_
[12:26] <webmaren> I can't load sites from a certain set of servers and nobody else who uses them reports this problem
[12:27] <s0xtech> hi ich hab nen problem
[12:27] <Dante123> also.....I already had a linux-swap file for Puppy Linux......512mb.....will it work for both OS'es?

[12:27] <malikeye> joe_: not sure what you are talkin about... you can scroll now ? or no
[12:27] <baconbacon> Dante123: swap partition or file
[12:27] <gili> i have edgy installed here on a Toshiba M40X laptop
[12:27] <paolo> Hi. I use kubuntu edgy 6.10. I can't find mplayer in source.list.... where is it?
[12:27] <ubek_> Pelo: its too many of procees i cant wath them all
[12:27] <gili> i am trying to get the built in card reader recongnized
[12:27] <joe_> malikeye it works in everything else, just not firefox
[12:27] <gili> any ideas?
[12:27] <mjr> Dante123, yeah. You don't want to suspend the other OS to it and then boot the other one, though.
[12:27] <cafuego_> paolo: It's in 'multiverse'.
[12:27] <malikeye> ifwr: you need to remove the LAME=lame from the # Paths of programs blah blah blah ....
[12:28] <Pelo> ubek_,  the offending process will jump to the top of the list if you clicked the cpu column header
[12:28] <malikeye> joe_: gotcha... dunno I've never seen it not work in one app only
[12:28] <Dante123> You mean that if I log off properly and reboot into either Linux distro....the same swap file will work for both right?
[12:28] <mjr> Dante123, yes
[12:28] <pjm123> Hello.  Can anyone help my get a USB wireless card (Net Gear MA111) working on my newly installed Linux 5.10 computer?  I'm a newbie, so I would need someone to explain clearly and patiently.  Thank you.
[12:28] <Pelo> ubek_,  just use your computer normaly and when it does slow down , have a look and see which process is on top
[12:28] <Dante123> thanks
[12:28] <malikeye> ifwr: just comment it out, or add the absolute path
[12:28] <webmaren> I cannot ping the site either, so it isn't a browser problem
[12:29] <joe_> yes malikeye i know, its very odd
[12:29] <cafuego_> there are lots of sites that works fine but can't be pinged.
[12:29] <juano> whats root password in ubuntu 6.10?? installation never told me for a root pass
[12:29] <IndyGUnFreak> doesn't have one juano
[12:29] <thoreauputic> !root > juano
[12:29] <cafuego_> juano: the root account is disabled.
[12:29] <chorse> juano: none, use sudo to become root.
[12:29] <webmaren> cafuego_: but I can't access it in the browser
[12:29] <Flannel> juano: there is no root password, root is disabled, use sudo instead.
[12:29] <baconbacon> !root
[12:29] <ubotu> sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root").   Thank you very much, you have been a spectacular help
[12:30] <joe_> ah well, see ya in a bit guys
[12:30] <Flannel> chorse: sudo doesn't make you root,
[12:30] <ubek_> Pelo: in theory yes but not in this case ;]
[12:30] <baconbacon> !gksudo
[12:30] <ubotu> If you need to run graphical applications as root, use gksudo, as it will set up the environment more appropriately. Avoid ever using "sudo <GUI-application>"
[12:30] <webmaren> cafuego: any proboards site, such as http://support.proboards.com
[12:30] <ubek_> Pelo:  its just halting
[12:30] <juano> i wanna become root
[12:30] <malikeye> ifwr: thanks, I'll send you my bill :)
[12:30] <juano> how do i?
[12:30] <paolo> cafuego thnks
[12:30] <Pelo> ubek_,  is the best I can do for you
[12:30] <ifwr> :)
[12:30] <webmaren> cafuego: it works most of the time
[12:30] <baconbacon> juano,
[12:30] <baconbacon> !gksudo > juano
[12:30] <chorse> Flannel: he tries su so he must know sudo + su.
[12:30] <webmaren> cafuego: but I get random downtime that nobody else experineces
[12:31] <ubek_> Pelo: thx
[12:31] <ub12> juano the sudo password is the same as the password of the first user created
[12:31] <thoreauputic> juano: you've had about 5 urls thrown at you to read about it :)
[12:31] <Flannel> chorse: su is not the same as sudo.  And the latter does not make you root.
[12:31] <ericpersson> I'm trying to install ubuntu server from a alternate cd onto a hp dl360, but after pushing enter from the main install menu, i get a blank black screen after a while, any idea why?
[12:31] <chorse> Flannel: "sudo su -".
[12:31] <malikeye> Flannel: it could though :)
[12:31] <juano> i put it in and it rejects
[12:31] <cafuego_> webmaren: Hmm. your ip isn't in a bogon range as fara s I can tell...
[12:32] <thoreauputic> juano: *sigh* read the wiki URL you were given
[12:32] <max_> where do i go to see how much ram i have?
[12:32] <Intelligitimate> Is mplayer a terminal application?
[12:32] <IndyGUnFreak> Intelligitimate:  no
[12:32] <LjL> Ubotu, tell Gosha|Away about away | Gosha|Away, see the private message from Ubotu
[12:32] <malikeye> _max_: cat /proc/meminfo
[12:32] <thoreauputic> max_: free -m
[12:32] <cafuego_> Intelligitimate: not really, though it can output via aalib.
[12:32] <IndyGUnFreak> i guess it could be
[12:32] <kirun> mplayer can be used on the terminal
[12:32] <IndyGUnFreak> but you can get it through your
[12:32] <Intelligitimate> Then where do I access it?
[12:32] <IndyGUnFreak> gui menu
[12:32] <Flannel> chorse: that's a really poor practice, and sudo still isn't making you root in that case, su is.
[12:33] <Gosha|Away> ... huh?
[12:33] <IndyGUnFreak> Intelligimate:  Apps/Sound and Video
[12:33] <chorse> Flannel: debate on principles?
[12:33] <webmaren> intelligitimate: type 'mplayer' in terminal
[12:33] <malikeye> Intelligitimate: you cna access it from a terminal
[12:33] <Gosha|Away> .. maybe i'm on other chans too !
[12:33] <IndyGUnFreak> yeah, you can get it from terminal, but i know when i installe d it, it went right to the menu
[12:33] <thoreauputic> chorse: sudo -i is the recommended way to a root shell
[12:33] <Intelligitimate> I did both, and mplayer isn't in sound and video, and from the terminal it won't load the file.
[12:33] <IndyGUnFreak> are you sure it installed?
[12:34] <webmaren> cafuego: I don't think it is an IP block, because the staff on at least the support board know that they do not work
[12:34] <Intelligitimate> Yes, it gives me error messages and everything.
[12:34] <webmaren> cafuego: So I don't know why it's not working
[12:34] <juano> why wont it let me save files??
[12:34] <Bartisimo_> click system>administration>system monitor then resources
[12:34] <IndyGUnFreak> ok
[12:34] <malikeye> Intelligitimate: mplayer <path to file>
[12:34] <IndyGUnFreak> what type of file are you trying to watch again?
[12:34] <juano> i already activated the account
[12:34] <Intelligitimate> That's what I did.
[12:34] <Intelligitimate> It won't play.
[12:34] <IndyGUnFreak> what type of file?
[12:35] <Intelligitimate> mp4
[12:35] <malikeye> pastebin your error ?
[12:35] <ericpersson> how can i make sure the ubuntu alternative installer uses only textmode?
[12:35] <IndyGUnFreak> hmm
[12:35] <webmaren> intelligitimate: what is the error message
[12:35] <IndyGUnFreak> and xine doesn't work?
[12:35] <IndyGUnFreak> i'm actually watching an MP4 in Xine right now.
[12:35] <Bartisimo_> It shows you your ram
[12:35] <Intelligitimate> nevermind, I made a typo.
[12:35] <malikeye> :)
[12:35] <Intelligitimate> It works now.
[12:35] <LinTux> I want to install apache perl php mysql in terminal what is the commands needed
[12:35] <IndyGUnFreak> bout time...lol

[12:35] <ubuntu> Huys, a question here...
[12:35] <juano> i want to edit a file inside /proc/sys/net/ipv6/conf
[12:36] <juano> it wont let me save it sais something that the backup file cant be made
[12:36] <ubuntu> I have the unfortunate thing that my pc (entire electricity) fell out during upgrade to Edgy.
[12:36] <ubuntu> Now I cannot reboot.
[12:36] <IndyGUnFreak> so what were you doing wrong Intelligitmate
[12:36] <paolo> my mplayer plugin (as well as vlc plugin) for mozilla doesn't work... it shows me only a blank window... any idea about it? thnks
[12:36] <ubuntu> Is it possible/allowed to chroot into my system, and do it from there?
[12:36] <webmaren> ubuntu: burn an edgy install cd
[12:36] <ubuntu> For I would hate it to have to restart...
[12:36] <webmaren> ubuntu: back up your files
[12:36] <ubuntu> webmaren: I'm on the live cd now.
[12:36] <ubuntu> webmaren: and I cannot burn another cd while on live...
[12:36] <webmaren> ubuntu: that could be a problem
[12:37] <webmaren> ubuntu: you have any friends?
[12:37] <avalon> Anyone know how to rebuild a module in here?
[12:37] <malikeye> haha
[12:37] <ubuntu> webmaren: but, chrooting, and commandline doing it, isn't that possible?
[12:37] <IndyGUnFreak> lol
[12:37] <LinTux> I want to install apache perl php mysql in terminal what is the commands needed?
[12:37] <IndyGUnFreak> webmaren, linux users don't have friends
[12:37] <webmaren> ubuntu: you have any acquaintances
[12:37] <malikeye> ubuntu : you got any other linux boxes on the network to NFS mount ?

[12:37] <ubuntu> Nothing of that... I'm alone... :)
[12:37] <webmaren> ubuntu: access to another computer running linux
[12:38] <ubuntu> webmaren: Sorry...
[12:38] <IndyGUnFreak> hell, just another PC that can burn an ISO would be worth while.
[12:38] <LinTux> Cheers Ubotu
[12:38] <IndyGUnFreak> put an add in your local paper.
[12:38] <ubuntu> I tried that...
[12:38] <IndyGUnFreak> kinda like, "Will work for food"
[12:38] <IndyGUnFreak> "Will work for burning rights for 1hr"
[12:38] <webmaren> ubuntu: how much data do you have that needs to be backed up
[12:38] <ubuntu> I mean...
[12:38] <ubuntu> webmaren: Too friggin much :(
[12:39] <IndyGUnFreak> no offense, but you didnt' back up before trying an upgrade?
[12:39] <malikeye> bummer
[12:39] <ubuntu> On my box it would take days to backup
[12:39] <webmaren> ubuntu: do you have multiple HD's, or an external?
[12:39] <ubuntu> IndyGUnFreak: Nope ^^
[12:39] <IndyGUnFreak> man, thats a tough lesson
[12:39] <malikeye> yes, yes it is
[12:39] <ubuntu> webmaren: all internal, and multiple hd's
[12:39] <avalon> Anyone know how to rebuild a module in here, I need to know how to "patch" it to the kernel I'm running.
[12:39] <IndyGUnFreak> ubuntu, how bout this.
[12:39] <IndyGUnFreak> if you can do it.
[12:39] <webmaren> tell me you didn't RAID them
[12:39] <ubuntu> webmaren: no raid ^ ^
[12:39] <ubuntu> ^^
[12:39] <gili> i am trying to get the built in card reader recongnized
[12:40] <IndyGUnFreak> can you install ubuntu(new instlal of course)
[12:40] <ubuntu> IndyGUnFreak: what?
[12:40] <IndyGUnFreak> do a different hard drive
[12:40] <IndyGUnFreak> then access your old files from the new install.
[12:40] <webmaren> ubuntu: make backup of all of your files onto the drive that won't be sandblasted when you reformat
[12:40] <gili> i have a toshiba M40X and i cant seem to get ubuntu to recognize the built in card reader
[12:40] <malikeye> gili : does lsusb show it ?
[12:40] <ub12> wha tis the best thing for rss feeds using ubuntu?
[12:40] <malikeye> ub12: I like thunderbird
[12:40] <gili> what should lsusb show?
[12:41] <malikeye> anything
[12:41] <IndyGUnFreak> webmaren, but can he do that from live mode?
[12:41] <ubuntu> But seriously, you're all telling me that a chroot, and a commandline thing (even though deprecated) will not work??
[12:41] <malikeye> pastebin it if it isn't blank
[12:41] <niekie> But I rarely read RSS feeds anyway.
[12:41] <webmaren> I've had to backup to a usb drive from live cd once
[12:41] <pjm123> Can anyone help me configure a wireless USB card for Ubuntu 5.10?
[12:41] <IndyGUnFreak> ubuntu, i think thats why you're hosed.
[12:41] <webmaren> same sort of thing happened to me
[12:41] <pjm123> or tell me where a better place to ask is?
[12:41] <ubuntu> hosed?
[12:41] <IndyGUnFreak> wow,
[12:41] <ub12> malikye yeah i like thunderbird but I set up evolution when I switched to ubuntu
[12:41] <IndyGUnFreak> hosed= screwed,
[12:42] <malikeye> ub12: I have not found a good standalone RSS reader
[12:42] <LinTux> what is the command to install lamp
[12:42] <IndyGUnFreak> all the other words i had, would have gotten me booted...lol
[12:42] <gili> lsusb yields recognition Bus 005-001 on Device 001
[12:42] <webmaren> ubuntu: there is nothing you can do but backup your stuff and reinstall from whatever CD version you have

[12:42] <webmaren> ubuntu: then get back up to the system you had before
[12:42] <malikeye> last time I'm gonna do it
[12:42] <ubuntu> My dad is going to complain about my download :(
[12:42] <IndyGUnFreak> lol
[12:42] <ubuntu> Big time...
[12:42] <IndyGUnFreak> whats wrong with the download?
[12:43] <IndyGUnFreak> it has to e done.
[12:43] <ubuntu> I'm from belgium
[12:43] <webmaren> at least you didn't fry your parts
[12:43] <malikeye> ubuntu : you on satelllite ?
[12:43] <IndyGUnFreak> email me your address and i'll burn an edgy DVD an dmail it to you.
[12:43] <ubuntu> In this godforsaken country we still have to pay per GB...
[12:43] <IndyGUnFreak> as long as your in the US.
[12:43] <wasabi_> I'm sure he can just fix it manually.
[12:43] <malikeye> gili: can you pastebin the results ?
[12:43] <wasabi_> ubuntu, you can fix anything without reloading.
[12:43] <IndyGUnFreak> wow ubuntu, that is bad...lo
[12:43] <malikeye> really it is
[12:43] <wasabi_> ubuntu, Just comes down to how hard you want to work at it
[12:43] <webmaren> if you feel comfortable waiting several weeks, you can order free CDs
[12:43] <avalon>  Is there any site that has a step by step on how to rebuild a module? I know I'm supposed to patch it to my kernel, but I'm not quite sure how to do that
[12:44] <gili> malikeye: iw will in a second....my card reader is internal its one of thosse multi readers
[12:44] <ubuntu> I want to work at it hard enough :)
[12:44] <IndyGUnFreak> i don't know wasabi...
[12:44] <wasabi_> Then start fixing the problems.
[12:44] <wasabi_> What's hte problem?
[12:44] <vircuser> hi, can anyone tell me if there is a key or key combo in ubuntu breeezy to take a screenshot?
[12:44] <Olathe> How should I partition a 30 GB disk on a system that has trouble booting from disks larger than 8 GB ?
[12:44] <malikeye> gili: yeah, but they still use USB
[12:44] <IndyGUnFreak> he had an install crash halfway through
[12:44] <wasabi_> IndyGUnFreak: So?
[12:44] <gili> ok
[12:44] <IndyGUnFreak> excuse me
[12:44] <IndyGUnFreak> an update crash halfway through
[12:44] <wasabi_> IndyGUnFreak: It just left off after one package.
[12:44] <webmaren> olathe: 6 5GBs
[12:44] <wasabi_> As long as the FS isn't corrupted, it's cool.
[12:44] <webmaren> olathe or 5 6GBs
[12:44] <ubuntu> wasabi_: uhm, electicity got put down, and I was in the middle of my upgrade to edgy
[12:44] <IndyGUnFreak> i hope you're right.
[12:44] <Olathe> Does just the boot partition need to be small, or all of them ?
[12:44] <IndyGUnFreak> ok, two different things here
[12:44] <wasabi_> ubuntu, great, move onto the technical problem.
[12:44] <niekie> Just the boot, usually.
[12:45] <wasabi_> ubuntu, waht doesn't work?
[12:45] <IndyGUnFreak> lol
[12:45] <ubuntu> wasabi_: now I cannot reboot, so I'm just trying to ask whether I could use chroot and commandline
[12:45] <webmaren> olathe: my bad, just the boot then
[12:45] <IndyGUnFreak> we'll chalk you up as last to know wasabi.. nothing works
[12:45] <ubuntu> wasabi_: nothing anymore ^ ^
[12:45] <ubuntu> ^^
[12:45] <wasabi_> "cannot reboot". Are you prevented from pulling the power?
[12:45] <wasabi_> Can you perhaps describe more of the situation?
[12:45] <IndyGUnFreak> what the?
[12:45] <wasabi_> ie error messages.
[12:45] <webmaren> wait, theres a key combo to force reboot
[12:45] <ubuntu> wasabi_: nono, he boots, tries to do the X 3 times, and then doesn't even give commandline login options
[12:46] <ubuntu> No error messages that I saw...
[12:46] <malikeye> wasabi_: is right... "won't boot" isn't a good description of the problem :)
[12:46] <wasabi_> Boot into single user mode.
[12:46] <IndyGUnFreak> it just freezes?
[12:46] <gili> malikeye: http://pastebin.com/843985
[12:46] <wasabi_> ubuntu, you know how to use grub?
[12:46] <vircuser> can anyone help me with screenshotting in ubuntu breezy please?
[12:46] <ubuntu> wasabi_: basically, yes.
[12:46] <wasabi_> ubuntu, well, do so.
[12:46] <ubuntu> vircuser: print screen
[12:46] <wasabi_> ubuntu, that will run nothing at boot.
[12:46] <IndyGUnFreak> sorry, never used breeezy
[12:46] <malikeye> gili: most likely it's not seeing your card reader
[12:46] <malikeye> gili:  can you post a dmesg and an lspci ?
[12:46] <IndyGUnFreak> print screen?.. is that the truth
[12:46] <ubuntu> wasabi_: uhm, I don't quite know how to boot into single user mode.
[12:47] <gili> sure
[12:47] <un_operateur> vircuser, whats the matter?
[12:47] <ubuntu> There is a recovery mode though ^ ^
[12:47] <fbc> Is there any tool that will convert video formats to AMV's?
[12:47] <wasabi_> ubuntu, on the grub command line pass "single"
[12:47] <wasabi_> I believe.
[12:47] <vircuser> ubuntu: cheers :)
[12:47] <wasabi_> recovery mode might be it.
[12:47] <ubuntu> Well, I'll let you guys know how much of it is working ^^
[12:47] <webmaren> ubuntu: hit ESC when the grub countdown comes up
[12:47] <Milardovich> hi everybody
[12:47] <webmaren> ubuntu: then select 'reconvery mode'
[12:47] <ubuntu> Whatever, I got 60secs of options
[12:47] <IndyGUnFreak> i wanna see if this works.
[12:47] <ubuntu> ok, brb :)
[12:47] <Milardovich> i use ubuntu and i think that its great!
[12:47] <IndyGUnFreak> hopefully
[12:48] <wasabi_> if what works?
[12:48] <IndyGUnFreak> Milard, this is an ubuntu hate group.
[12:48] <webmaren> milardovich: cheers for you
[12:48] <malikeye> haha
[12:48] <wasabi_> also why did he leave?
[12:48] <VerdRousseau> any one know of a good wireless card that works 100 percent out of the box
[12:48] <IndyGUnFreak> i wann asee if what you told him to do works
[12:48] <IndyGUnFreak> i hope it does
[12:48] <wasabi_> I never finished explaining what to do.
[12:48] <Milardovich> but i had a problem installing ubuntu in my lap and in a harddisk of 3GB
[12:48] <webmaren> wasabi_: you can't stay in apps when you reboot
[12:48] <IndyGUnFreak> i just can' believe in todays day and age, there are people that don't create backups
[12:48] <wasabi_> Oh. He only had one system?
[12:48] <Milardovich> sory for my bad english
[12:48] <wasabi_> Nobody told me that. ;)
[12:48] <IndyGUnFreak> ESPECIALLY when doing something as serious as upgrading your OS
[12:48] <IndyGUnFreak> yes wasabi
[12:49] <wasabi_> IndyGUnFreak: The OS is nothing but a boot loader, a kernel, and a bunch of files.
[12:49] <wasabi_> All of which can be put back where they belong.
[12:49] <malikeye> IndyGUnFreak: I don't create backups
[12:49] <IndyGUnFreak> true wasabi,
[12:49] <Dante123> backups?  who needs em??  :-)
[12:49] <Milardovich> check that, thats my problem
[12:49] <Milardovich> http://www.milardovich.com.ar/index.php/blog/view/Instalando%20UBUNTU%20DRAPPER%20en%20mi%20pentium%20IV?id=64
[12:49] <webmaren> IndyGUnFreak: yeah I learned that the hard way
[12:49] <IndyGUnFreak> man i'd go bezerk
[12:49] <Zoffix> Hi, is it possible to install Ubuntu over tha lan on a clean hard drive?
[12:49] <derFlo> what sound drivers do i need on vmware?
[12:49] <wasabi_> Zoffix: Yes, configure a PXE install.
[12:49] <IndyGUnFreak> web, i never had to learn the lesson, a friend did, so i prepared
[12:49] <IndyGUnFreak> i'd go nuts.
[12:49] <un_operateur> !cloning
[12:49] <ubotu> To replicate your packages selection on another machine (or restore it if re-installing), you can type "dpkg --get-selections > ~/my-packages", move the file "my-packages" to the other machine, and there type "sudo dpkg --set-selections < my-packages && apt-get dselect-upgrade"
[12:49] <IndyGUnFreak> 4gigs worth of mp3's
[12:49] <webmaren> IndyGUnFreak: had to pick the files I wanted to save when my edgy upgrade crashed in the middle
[12:49] <IndyGUnFreak> about 30gigs worth of movies, pics, etc..
[12:49] <malikeye> IndyGUnFreak: only 4 ?
[12:49] <webmaren> IndyGUnFreak: dang
[12:50] <Dante123> will ubuntu work okay on an amd duron cpu at 800 mhz???
[12:50] <derFlo> what sound drivers do i need on vmware?
[12:50] <wasabi_> Confusing. All you have to do to fix the system is get the kernel running.
[12:50] <IndyGUnFreak> lol malikeye...
[12:50] <derFlo> what sound drivers do i need on vmware?
[12:50] <FirstStrike> Dante123: You should use Xubuntu
[12:50] <wasabi_> Just add init=/bin/bash to the kernel command line, and you'll get dropped to a shell
[12:50] <wasabi_> clean up from there.
[12:50] <IndyGUnFreak> some people say "only 4".., but when you consider i've obtained 99% of it legally, thats an accomplishment...lol
[12:50] <un_operateur> Dante123, sure -- but that shouldn't be your only concern -- what about memory and HDD space?
[12:50] <IndyGUnFreak> Dantel123:  how mujch memory?
[12:50] <webmaren> IndyGUnFreak: that is  a lot of investment
[12:50] <gili> malikeye:http://pastebin.com/843986
[12:51] <IndyGUnFreak> yes it is webmaren,
[12:51] <Dante123> got a second hd with 30 gigs.......
[12:51] <IndyGUnFreak> thats plenty of hard drive space
[12:51] <IndyGUnFreak> how much RAM?
[12:51] <malikeye> IndyGUnFreak: 64G     MUSIC :)
[12:51] <Dante123> 256mb
[12:51] <IndyGUnFreak> YIKES!...lol
[12:51] <webmaren> oh hey by the way, is there a way to get ubuntu to recognize HFS+ disks
[12:51] <IndyGUnFreak> Dantel, you might doa  little better with Xubuntu.
[12:51] <malikeye> IndyGUnFreak: 329G    VIDEO :) :)
[12:51] <gili> as you can see lspci picks up the card
[12:51] <un_operateur> Dante123, thats fine
[12:51] <IndyGUnFreak> damn, and you people don't have backups?..lol
[12:52] <thoreauputic> webmaren: yes, put them in /etc/fstab with hfsplus as filesystem
[12:52] <gili> malikeye:look at lines 40-42
[12:52] <malikeye> IndyGUnFreak: my stuff is all on RAID5... it's not foolproof but it's pretty damn close
[12:52] <Milardovich> by everybody
[12:52] <webmaren> toreauputic: it's an external
[12:52] <thoreauputic> webben: or mount them -t hfsplus
[12:52] <IndyGUnFreak> well thats good i gues
[12:52] <Milardovich> bye
[12:52] <Seventh> hello everyone !

[12:53] <tuskernini> Question, how do i clear my .deb installs form my pc in the terminal?
[12:53] <Dante123> it's not actually my computer.....it is for a student I teach.....but the siblings often mess up the Windows.....I was thinking of putting Ubuntu on the second HD.....as an alternate os for my student....and brothers and sisters can do what they want in Windoze....but his ubuntu will be just for him...

[12:57] <webmaren> is it your job>
[12:57] <malikeye> IndyGUnFreak: the majority of them are divx rips of DVD's I own
[12:57] <Stormx2> Stop with the command jokes...
[12:57] <IndyGUnFreak> oh i see malikeye..
[12:57] <Stormx2> xD
[12:57] <Zoffix> Do I need to reboot this box from the DVD in order to do that install via LAN on the other box?
[12:57] <IndyGUnFreak> i ripped all 6 seasons of Sopranos a little while ago.
[12:57] <thoreauputic> Stormx2: you lost geek points there ;p
[12:57] <webmaren> malikeye: still.... that's like almost 40DVDs
[12:57] <Captain_Haddock> Hi, I need some help in setting up my monitor correctly in xorg.conf.
[12:57] <Stormx2> thoreauputic: Bleh i don't care
[12:58] <IndyGUnFreak> its a ton.
[12:58] <Stormx2> Captain_Haddock: Whats the issue?
[12:58] <thoreauputic> Stormx2: heh ;-)
[12:58] <IndyGUnFreak> has anyone tried those enclosures, that you can hook up a IDE hard drive in, for backup purposes?
[12:58] <malikeye> webmaren: I have like 400 DVD's
[12:58] <IndyGUnFreak> you can get them at tigerdirect for like 25 bucks.
[12:58] <Stormx2> thoreauputic: Its too late and I'm too depressed to worry about geek points xD
[12:58] <thoreauputic> Stormx2: fairenough :)
[12:58] <Captain_Haddock> My browser's manual states that the following setting is fine: VESA, 1280 x 1024 79.976 75.025 135.00 +/+
[12:58] <name> where is "alsaconfig"
[12:58] <Captain_Haddock> That is "Display mode" "Horiz Freq. Khz" "Vert. Freq. Khz" "Pixel Clock" and "Sync Polarity (H/V)".
[12:58] <malikeye> back in my old job I used to pass a best buy everyday, and tuesdays were bad :)
[12:58] <un_operateur> IndyGUnFreak, yea, I had one -- but it only supported ata-100
[12:58] <Seventh> i have a little problem with my internet configuration of the lan adapters. each (short amount of time) the "profile" (Home) that i have created is not considered any more can some one tell me how to make my profile work always and not only when i activate him every 3 min (or so)
[12:59] <TheGuru> anyone know of any software to repair broken avi's?
[12:59] <malikeye> gili: you readin that thread ?
[12:59] <hanasaki> anyway to get ^m to open a new mail msg from firefox?  it used to do this.. not sure if it was debian/sarge or 6.1 that did it
[12:59] <Stormx2> Captain_Haddock: Do you only have access to some resolutions / refresh rates?
[12:59] <malikeye> gili: I've never seen that type of a procedure before, so....
[12:59] <Captain_Haddock> Stormx2: The existing xorg.conf uses a set of ranges.. Is it OK to replace it with an exact value?
[12:59] <name> i never get an answer here
[12:59] <name> that sucks ;(
[12:59] <IndyGUnFreak> well, all i know is i've got a spare 300gig IDE hard drive I had, and put it in there, and had an instant 300gig backup device
[12:59] <radar_1976> ok I'm having some real big issues with Edgy
[12:59] <webmaren> IndyGUnFreak: I have a 120GB WD external in HFS+ format
[12:59] <TheGuru> I made the dumb mistake of downloading part of an AVI with an FTP client and resumed it with another client
[12:59] <Stormx2> Captain_Haddock: I suggest you have a look here first
[12:59] <Stormx2> !res | Captain_Haddock
[12:59] <ubotu> Captain_Haddock: The X Window System is the part of your system that's responsible for graphical output. To restart your X, type "sudo /etc/init.d/?dm restart" in a console - To fix screen resolution or other X problems: http://help.ubuntu.com/community/FixVideoResolutionHowto
[12:59] <IndyGUnFreak> yeah, mine is in ext3...
[12:59] <TheGuru> and it's kinda messed up
[12:59] <Captain_Haddock> Cheers
[12:59] <radar_1976> Firefox or Ephiphany browsers like to freeze alot!
[12:59] <thoreauputic> name: alsaconfig is deprecated in ubuntu
[12:59] <malikeye> name... you try 'which alsaconfig' ?
[12:59] <ubuntu_> I'm back
[12:59] <IndyGUnFreak> is Fat32 more efficient than ext3?
[01:00] <webmaren> IndyGUnFreak: Had a mac before I went linux
[01:00] <radar_1976> is ther anyone else having issues with these as well?
[01:00] <Stormx2> Captain_Haddock: Second link
[01:00] <IndyGUnFreak> i was always swuck in windoze hell.
[01:00] <Stormx2> IndyGUnFreak: No.
[01:00] <ubuntu_> Bad news, in recovery I could not get my network up-and-running
[01:00] <thoreauputic> name: and that's from crimsun, who is the resident sound guru :)
[01:00] <webmaren> IndyGUnFreak: I watch my family boot it and laugh
[01:00] <ashzilla> How do I disk defragment in Ubuntu?
[01:00] <Stormx2> IndyGUnFreak: FAT32 is horrible...
[01:00] <webmaren> IndyGUnFreak: takes like 5mins
[01:00] <IndyGUnFreak> lol
[01:00] <Stormx2> ashzilla: Its not needed on ext3
[01:00] <ashzilla> Or run regular disk checks to insure the disk is managed well and error-free.
[01:00] <name> thoreauputic: hu?
[01:00] <VerdRousseau> anyone got a out of box workign wireless card
[01:00] <name> thoreauputic: what else should i use?
[01:00] <Seventh> i have a little problem with my internet configuration of the lan adapters. each (short amount of time) the "profile" (Home) that i have created is not considered any more can some one tell me how to make my profile work always and not only when i activate him every 3 min (or so)
[01:00] <un_operateur> IndyGUnFreak, yes, Fatxx doesnt have the overhead of the other more sophisticated file systems -- but thats to its disadvantage
[01:00] <ubuntu_> ashzilla: it does that out of itself
[01:00] <thoreauputic> name: there is no alsaconfig in ubuntu
[01:00] <name> why dammit?
[01:00] <webmaren> IndyGUnFreak: if microsoft uses it, that should be warning enough
[01:00] <Stormx2> VerdRousseau: Mine was almost out the box... haha. Easy to set up
[01:01] <IndyGUnFreak> AMEN!!! webmaren..lol
[01:01] <TheGuru> um...Anyone?
[01:01] <thoreauputic> name: i was told "It causes more issues than it fixes"
[01:01] <Captain_Haddock> Stormx2: I should follow the instructions for dapper?
[01:01] <VerdRousseau> stormx2-what card do you have
[01:01] <kyja> wouldnt have to be in a card slot to be a working wireless card?
[01:01] <Stormx2> Captain_Haddock: Its probably the same. Hold on, let me get you the command you need.
[01:01] <IndyGUnFreak> so ubuntu, will you be able to back up your files from safemode?
[01:01] <Stormx2> VerdRousseau: One minute please
[01:01] <Captain_Haddock> Stormx2: thanks dude
[01:01] <webmaren> oops lol
[01:01] <name> FFS i need it
[01:02] <gili> malikeye: looking at it now
[01:02] <name> my alsa doesn't record anything
[01:02] <name> that's no good
[01:02] <kirun> I hear Microsoft use a lot of this "electricity" stuff, and a thing known as the "x86" architecture... guess we should avoid those in the future
[01:02] <malikeye> name : did you unmute the 'in' ?
[01:02] <kirun> Babbage difference engine FTW :)
[01:02] <malikeye> line in, rather

[01:02] <thoreauputic> kirun: absolutely. yoghurt cups connected with string work just fine ;-)
[01:02] <con-man> does anyone know of a really good flash player?
[01:03] <IndyGUnFreak> Ubuntu: could you run a backup from safe mode?
[01:03] <con-man> the one if firefox doesnt work right
[01:03] <Stormx2> Captain_Haddock: sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg <-- Press enter through all of it till you get to resolutions, etc. Put a check in the boxes with space bar
[01:03] <name> it's  Card: Intel ICH5
[01:03] <IndyGUnFreak> either DVD's, or an external drive, something/
[01:03] <malikeye> con-man: uh... macromedia flash player ?
[01:03] <Captain_Haddock> Stormx2: okie dokie. sec.
[01:03] <un_operateur> con-man, firefox doesnt come with flash by default -- which one is it you are using ATM?
[01:03] <ubuntu_> IndyGUnFreak: Yeah...   It took under 5 minutes.
[01:04] <ubuntu_> :)

[01:05] <Stormx2> IndyGUnFreak: Per Great Britain?
[01:05] <IndyGUnFreak> no, gigabyte
[01:05] <malikeye> jman_: they won't win
[01:05] <IndyGUnFreak> he pays for his internet service by the GB
[01:05] <Stormx2> Ah haha
[01:05] <IndyGUnFreak> lol, thats why he was stressing over the problems he was having wi8tht hat download...lol
[01:05] <Stormx2> I have uncapped. I'm one of two customers on my ISP, they want to hang onto me.
[01:06] <Stormx2> Hence I upload terrabytes, etc...
[01:06] <mnvl> can anyone recommend a graphic archive utility?
[01:06] <ubuntu_> webmaren: I've got (a)dsl
[01:06] <webmaren> stormx2: dang
[01:06] <thoreauputic> mnvl: file-roller
[01:06] <Stormx2> mnvl: To do what, create archives or unpack them?
[01:06] <IndyGUnFreak> ubuntu_, how much do you pay per GB?
[01:06] <thoreauputic> mnvl: which is installed by default
[01:06] <webmaren> ubuntu_: at least you won't be on the phone for the whole night
[01:06] <ubuntu_> And I only have to pay if we go above 15G... How much I have no clue...
[01:06] <IndyGUnFreak> lol
[01:06] <ubuntu_> webmaren: lolors...
[01:06] <IndyGUnFreak> 15g?.. hell i've broken that the last 3 days...lol
[01:07] <webmaren> ubuntu_: I have dsl too
[01:07] <malikeye> ditto, easily
[01:07] <ubuntu_> the download/upload whatever... that's not the problem...
[01:07] <mnvl> Stormx2, to unpack them, and examine them and stuff
[01:07] <gili> malikeye: thanks for the help
[01:07] <webmaren> ubuntu: but I used to have dial-up
[01:07] <malikeye> gili: did it work ?
[01:07] <gili> this process does not help me
[01:07] <malikeye> ok
[01:07] <ubuntu_> webmaren: me too, ages ago
[01:07] <IndyGUnFreak> dial up blows
[01:07] <gili> i will keep looking into it
[01:07] <ubuntu_> largest piece of shit ever invented
[01:07] <malikeye> sorry I couldn't solve it for ya
[01:07] <juano> does anyone know where to find mplayer gui for ubuntu?
[01:07] <Stormx2> mnvl: file-roller, as thoreauputic said
[01:07] <IndyGUnFreak> i could never get my modem to work under Linux, got it once under Mandriva
[01:07] <Stormx2> ubuntu_: Language.
[01:07] <ubuntu_> sorry :$
[01:07] <IndyGUnFreak> once i switched to Cable, thatwas the clue it was time to dome M$ Windblows
[01:07] <mnvl> thoreauputic, should it appear in the gnome applications menu by default?
[01:08] <ubuntu_> Now, let's chroot :)
[01:08] <thoreauputic> mnvl: no, it was removed from the menu ( stupid if you ask me)
[01:08] <IndyGUnFreak> lol
[01:08] <Stormx2> mnvl: Applications > Accessories > Archive Manager
[01:08] <IndyGUnFreak> for cryin out loud though, make sure you have a good backup
[01:08] <thoreauputic> mnvl: you can put it back with the menu editor ( alacarte )
[01:08] <ubuntu_> IndyGUnFreak: I have my most essentials...
[01:08] <mnvl> oh ok that makes more sense thx thoreauputic
[01:08] <IndyGUnFreak> well thats good.
[01:08] <IndyGUnFreak> hopeully this taught you a lesson
[01:09] <ubuntu_> IndyGUnFreak: the rest is downloadable/replacable really (although I would prefer not to ^^)
[01:09] <thoreauputic> Stormx2: heh - you must have put it there
[01:09] <mnvl> it's not there Stormx2 but i have it installed

[01:11] <stockfisch> can anyone tell me why 3d works, but oGL does not with my ati graphics card (ati drivers)
[01:11] <mnvl> thx for the advice thoreauputic, Stormx2, sorry for the slightly trivial quiestion
[01:11] <malikeye> IndyGUnFreak: the linksys firmware generally doesn't support SNMP so you can't get readings from it
[01:11] <Stormx2> mnvl: trivial is easier ;-)
[01:12] <IndyGUnFreak> ah
[01:12] <ubuntu_> Well, it's doing it's job :)
[01:12] <stockfisch> im am somehow stuck with my error searching
[01:12] <IndyGUnFreak> well, i only go tit cuz my netgear FVS114 crapped out on me yesterday
[01:12] <thoreauputic> mnvl: it isn't exactly obvious - no need to apologise :)
[01:12] <mnvl> chill :)
[01:12] <ubuntu_> yet, too many errors occured... :(
[01:12] <IndyGUnFreak> but it was great for almost 4yrs, and i only paid 50 bucks for it when i bought it.
[01:12] <malikeye> IndyGUnFreak: take a look at dd-wrt sometime, it's pretty cool
[01:12] <Seventh> how do you upgrade from a breezy badger release to the newest one ?
[01:12] <IndyGUnFreak> so it wsa fine
[01:12] <IndyGUnFreak> dd-wrt?
[01:12] <IndyGUnFreak> is that a package?
[01:12] <malikeye> yeah
[01:12] <Flannel> Seventh: 5.10 > 6.06 > 6.10 (stop when you want to)
[01:12] <Flannel> !upgrade | Seventh
[01:12] <ubotu> Seventh: For upgrading, see the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes
[01:13] <malikeye> nope, it's a firmware for routers / access points
[01:13] <IndyGUnFreak> hm, i'll check it out.
[01:13] <malikeye> IndyGUnFreak: http://www.dd-wrt.com/dd-wrtv2/index.php
[01:13] <ubuntu_> crap, the chroot method does not work
[01:13] <berbear> how do i enable smp support? im on edgy and cat /etc/cpuinfo shows only 1 processor
[01:14] <ubuntu_> ok, since I'm on the livecd... Redo it all (grmbl)
[01:14] <Flannel> berbear: which kernel do you have installed?
[01:14] <IndyGUnFreak> sure sounds like it ubuntu... have fun
[01:14] <derFlo> what sound drivers do i need on vmware?
[01:14] <derFlo> what sound drivers do i need on vmware?
[01:14] <derFlo> what sound drivers do i need on vmware?
[01:14] <malikeye> IndyGUnFreak: your linksys die ?
[01:14] <kitche>  berbear: does it say 1 or 0?
[01:14] <ubuntu_> Anyone knows where dpkg puts it's downloaded .deb files?
[01:15] <IndyGUnFreak> no, my Netgear FVS114 died..
[01:15] <ubuntu_> Maybe I can backup those, so I don't have to redownload those...
[01:15] <IndyGUnFreak> i replaced it with the Linksys
[01:15] <Flannel> ubuntu_: dpkg doesn't download deb files, but they getput in /var/cache/apt/
[01:15] <derFlo> ubuntu_ /tmp ?
[01:15] <timo901> any one know how i can use this http://img81.imageshack.us/img81/892/buttonxp4.png
[01:15] <berbear> kitche:  2.6.17-10-386 #2 Tue Dec 5 22:26:18 UTC 2006 i686 GNU/Linux
[01:15] <ubuntu_> hmm, don't tell me dpkg or apt-get or aptitude removes those .deb files?
[01:15] <webmaren> timo901: what are you using it for
[01:15] <Mastastealth> ubuntu_: apt-get clean will clear your cache
[01:15] <Lam_> what are flac cue files good for?
[01:16] <timo901>  webmaren:menu bar
[01:16] <ubuntu_> I don't need to clean my cache... I need to backup it ^^
[01:16] <Stormx2> Lam_: CUE shows exactly how they should be burnt
[01:16] <berbear> kitche: cat /etc/proc shows processor 0 only
[01:16] <Stormx2> Lam_: FLAC is lossless... MP3 but better.
[01:16] <kitche> berbear: have to install the generic kernel that should have smp enabled
[01:16] <Lam_> Stormx2: ok thanks
[01:16] <malikeye> IndyGUnFreak: dd-wrt doesn't suppor that router... was thinkin you might be able to resurrect it
[01:16] <IndyGUnFreak> yeah, i was just looking at that
[01:17] <IndyGUnFreak> oh well, mayube i'll figure something else out .
[01:17] <ubuntu_> Whoooow!
[01:17] <ubuntu_> No complaints about my download prolly ^^
[01:17] <berbear> kitche:im on edgy. grub shows i386 and generic option to boot.. so i choose the generic one?
[01:17] <Flannel> berbear: yes, you want generic
[01:17] <berbear> ok thnx!
[01:17] <IndyGUnFreak> generic it is
[01:17] <ubuntu_> I can backup all the stuff I needed for the upgrade, since it's still there :)
[01:18] <Boglizk> Wheres the pixmaps folder+
[01:18] <ubuntu_> Now, where will I put that?
[01:18] <ubuntu_> I can't write on ntfs :(
[01:18] <Mastastealth> Boglizk: I think its /usr/share/
[01:18] <Stormx2> ubuntu_: Get ntfs-3g
[01:18] <Boglizk> ubuntu_: : Thats why you make a FAT32 partition ;D
[01:18] <malikeye> ubuntu_: can you shrink a windows partition down ?
[01:19] <thoreauputic> derFlo: vmware should use your existing drivers, and if you do a triple line like that  again you will be silenced, OK ?
[01:19] <UPC> hi
[01:19] <FirstStrike> !fuse ubuntu_
[01:19] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about fuse ubuntu_ - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[01:19] <FirstStrike> !fuse | ubuntu_
[01:19] <ubotu> ubuntu_: Though it's still very unsafe, you can read about Ubuntu NTFS writing here: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Lkraider/NtfsFuse
[01:19] <IndyGUnFreak> Boglizk:  The pixmaps folder is in usr/share/pixmaps
[01:19] <idlemind> ntfs-3g
[01:19] <Boglizk> thanks
[01:19] <flux_> g
[01:19] <ubuntu_> I'm gonna do some shrinking ^^
[01:20] <UPC> is the Flash Plugin for firefox broken?  I clicked on the "Install the missing plugin"  part of a website showing Flash Content and installed the flash plugin in firefox.  Since then,  Firefox crashes whenever I visit a website with Flash content
[01:20] <malikeye> ubuntu_: shrink a windows partition can only really be done if it's at the end of the disk
[01:20] <ubuntu_> FirstStrike: I had that on my ubuntu distro, but I am kinda working on the livecd right now.
[01:20] <ubuntu_> malikeye: I know :)
[01:20] <FirstStrike> !flash9 | UPC
[01:20] <malikeye> you can't just add a partition in the middle of the disk
[01:20] <ubotu> UPC: flash9 is available from dapper-backports and edgy-backports now, see !backports
[01:20] <malikeye> k
[01:20] <Flannel> UPC: you shouldn't use teh firefox builtin installer, install flash through package management
[01:20] <ubuntu_> I'm not an utter noob... :)
[01:20] <malikeye> sorry, sometimes you just gotta say stuff :)
[01:20] <IndyGUnFreak> ubuntu_: then you have no excuse for not having a backup...lol
[01:21] <malikeye> I would feel bad if you shrunk a partition and lost stuff
[01:21] <UPC> FirstStrike and Flannel,  thank you for the tips
[01:21] <ubuntu_> IndyGUnFreak: Grmbl!
[01:21] <flux_> Hi. Does anyone here know how to put the right charset in gnome? I want to globally enable norwegian keys, ,,. Now I _can_ write with  in documents, but if I take a document containing  into any texteditor, all special characters come up as questionmarks
[01:21] <IndyGUnFreak> lol
[01:21] <IndyGUnFreak> sorry, just gettin a dig in,
[01:21] <qball_> hey guys, would somone want to help me on getting the 8.32.5 drivers working? I used the ati wiki and it installs but when ubuntu boots it flickers then freezes at the very end
[01:21] <ubuntu_> :)
[01:21] <IndyGUnFreak> look at i this way, you got very lucky
[01:21] <IndyGUnFreak> most people don't get as lucky as you did, and are pretty much hosed.
[01:21] <qball_> i'm using a sapphire x1950 pro
[01:21] <malikeye> IndyGUnFreak:  there is a microsoft router in the compat list for dd-wrt.. how ironic
[01:22] <IndyGUnFreak> lol malikeye.
[01:22] <Terminus> flux_: you probably need a text editor that supports UTF-8
[01:22] <qball_> anyone?
[01:22] <thoreauputic> !patience
[01:22] <ubotu> The people in this channel are volunteers. Your attitude will determine how fast you are helped. See also http://wiki.ubuntu.com/IrcGuidelines
[01:22] <grimeboy> Can anyone help me with icecast? I've just apt-get'd it and it says I can telnet on to but I get telnet: could not resolve <IP_ADDRESS>:8000/telnet: Name or service not known when I try to.
[01:23] <billytwowilly> grimeboy: did you start up icecast?
[01:23] <DarthLappy> grimeboy, You can't telnet with /telnet in the name.
[01:23] <qball_> if you can help me just let me know, i'm clueless
[01:23] <grimeboy> DarthLappy, I didn't
[01:23] <IndyGUnFreak> volunteers?
[01:23] <grimeboy> billytwowilly, No but it said it was starting and it is in init.d
[01:23] <malikeye> I'm not sure you can use a colon either... is should be <IP_ADDRESS> 8000
[01:23] <IndyGUnFreak> some9one told me i was getting paid to sit in here
[01:23] <flux_> Terminus: I think they do.... since I can use them and save them. The problem comes when I take a document created by another texteditor, and try to put it into emacs or kile. I can write  as usual when i'm using f.eks. emacs to write something...
[01:23] <DarthLappy> grimeboy, What did you try and do?
[01:24] <grimeboy> DarthLappy, telnet localhost:8000
[01:24] <billytwowilly> grimeboy: ok, so check to see if it started ps -A then look for icecast.. Or you could get fancy and go ps -A | grep icecast
[01:24] <pjman> I'm in the process of setting up a new computer with Ubuntu for my aunt. She sends email to relatives in Germany and she loves to use the character map in Windows to input certain German characters. I thought this would be possible in Ubuntu's character map but German is not an option in the list.
[01:24] <pjman> What package(s) do I need to install in order for German characters to show up in the Character Map?
[01:24] <ubuntu_> You know what?
[01:24] <Terminus> flux_: i don't use emacs, but did you set it to start with UTF-8 enabled?
[01:24] <ubuntu_> I'm gonna resize my '/', and create a '/home' out of it.
[01:24] <malikeye> ubuntu_: which FS ?
[01:24] <billytwowilly> qball_: I'd like to help you but I can't get the ati drivers working on my laptop myself. The experience has convinced me that ATI is a poor product to buy if you want stable drivers.
[01:24] <grimeboy> billytwowilly, 27849 pts/6    00:00:00 icecast
[01:24] <ubuntu_> Ext3?
[01:24] <ubuntu_> malikeye:
[01:24] <malikeye> perfect
[01:24] <flux_> terminus: where do I do that? I just assumed it was OK since I could write with special characters in it
[01:24] <qball_> lol anyone know what to do?
[01:24] <billytwowilly> grimeboy: then follow the other guy's advice about /icecast
[01:24] <ubuntu_> Indeed, just what I figured :)
[01:24] <Terminus> flux_: oh wait... my bad. it should be following /etc/environment
[01:25] <billytwowilly> grimeboy: err about /telnet
[01:25] <grimeboy> billytwowilly, I don't really understand I typed in telnet localhost:8000 I'm pretty sure that's right.
[01:25] <thoreauputic> qball_: evidently not - at least not atthe moment. Error messages in the pastebin sometimes help
[01:25] <flux_> Terminus: OK! Great... I'll check out there
[01:26] <DarthLappy> Trying to help in a Linux channel without access to Linux for a while makes life hard ^_^
[01:26] <thoreauputic> !paste . qball_
[01:26] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about paste . qball_ - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[01:26] <qball_> thoreauputic eh there is no message though
[01:26] <Terminus> flux_: anyway, it either follows /etc/environment or you have to configure it to use UTF-8. i don't really know when it comes to emacs.
[01:26] <grimeboy> When I point my browser at localhost:8000 I get 404 entity not found.
[01:26] <billytwowilly> grimeboy: then I don't know what could be the problem. Perhaps 8000 is the wrong port?  Thanks!
[01:27] <malikeye> grimeboy: netstat -an | grep 8000
[01:27] <malikeye> grimeboy: that worked ?
[01:27] <grimeboy> I normally use ssh.
[01:27] <grimeboy> malikeye, Yup!
[01:27] <malikeye> nice
[01:27] <grimeboy> telnet is fussy
[01:27] <malikeye> agreed
[01:27] <jason> ubuntu_ Huh..?
[01:27] <thoreauputic> qball_: unfortunately I can't help - I have no experience with this
[01:27] <Boglizk> My NFTS partition is root-only, any suggestions?
[01:27] <DarthLappy> Oh, I thought it might be that but I couldn't check the telnet help :)
[01:27] <ubuntu_> 00:26 < jason> ubuntu sucks ubuntu sucks ubuntu sucks ubuntu sucks ubuntu sucks ubuntu sucks..
[01:27] <Boglizk> (meaning i cant even readit)
[01:27] <qball_> mmm does anyone ever used the 8.32.5 drivers yet from ati?
[01:28] <IndyGUnFreak> uh..
[01:28] <bobwhoops> Does ubuntu comes with an ssh server or do I need to install one?
[01:28] <crowley1027> help --- I have no sound.
[01:28] <DarthLappy> bobwhoops, The latter.
[01:28] <un_operateur> bobwhoops, you need install one
[01:28] <malikeye> bobwhoops: you ened to install openssh-server
[01:28] <thoreauputic> bobbyd: install openssh-sever
[01:28] <jason> ubuntu_: I wasn't quoting
[01:28] <Boglizk> bobwhoops: check apt-cachy policy openssh-server
[01:28] <Boglizk> cache..
[01:28] <ubuntu_> jason: And I was joking...
[01:28] <thoreauputic> bobbyd: umm openssh-server
[01:28] <billytwowilly> Boglizk: I lick cachy better;)
[01:28] <jason> ubuntu_:   : )

[01:30] <zyder22> well, i just recently downloaded ubuntu 6.1 and when it goes to start my monitor displays a screen with lines and jibberish on it

[01:30] <webmaren> malikeye: I need to kill the swfdec plugin
[01:30] <zyder22> how can i install in a text mode and then how would i go about config it to run properly
[01:31] <jason> burp
[01:31] <wastrel> !alternate | zyder22
[01:31] <ubotu> zyder22: The Alternate CD (available as of Dapper) is the classical text-mode installation CD. Use it if you wish to upgrade via CD, or for an "expert" mode install. For normal installs, use the Desktop CD, which is also a "Live" CD.
[01:31] <IndyGUnFreak> zyder, i'd suggest downloading the alternate install CD

[01:34] <n2diy> A friend of mine lost his partition but can still boot into Windows. wouldn't re-installing linux create a new partition table?
[01:34] <crowley1027> yeah, alsa is selected.
[01:34] <Boglizk> its say "not allowed" when cd'ing to /media/hda1

[01:35] <mc_ren> im drunk
[01:35] <ubuntu_> Boglizk: are you using some sort of ntfs driver?
[01:35] <ubuntu_> Boglizk: fuse-like?
[01:35] <un_operateur> n2diy, no -- only using fdisk or another parition utility recreates the parition tables
[01:35] <timo901> n2diy: some thing here \
[01:35] <ubuntu_> ntfs-3g?
[01:35] <neo_> i nead to create a new data base instance to have an application runing with it and i was had to run initdb -D "somename"
[01:35] <Boglizk> ubuntu_: Nope, nothing
[01:36] <neo_> but their is no initdb
[01:36] <mc_ren> is there any good guide on setting up some kind of ssh tunnel which allows me to connect to a client behind a nat while i'm at a remote box.
[01:36] <ubuntu_> then pmount as your normal user, instead of doing a sudo mount.
[01:36] <neo_> and no postmaster
[01:36] <Boglizk> I tried giving myself access.. but it complained about readonly shit
[01:36] <malikeye> neo_: I am installing it now.. gimme a few and I'll try to help
[01:36] <mc_ren> ?
[01:36] <webmaren> gaaahhhhh
[01:36] <n2diy> un_operateur: but Ubuntu creates partitions during install no?
[01:36] <webmaren> stupid flash player
[01:36] <ubuntu_> Boglizk: umount first, then pmount (as normal user, without sudo)
[01:36] <malikeye> n2diy: you can choose to manually partition and use the partitions that already exist
[01:36] <Boglizk> I didn't mount em, they were mounted when i installed..
[01:36] <un_operateur> n2diy, only if you modify the parition sizes
[01:36] <thoreauputic> mc_ren: google tsocks
[01:36] <Boglizk> allright.. i'll try it
[01:37] <mc_ren> thoreauputic: i allready looked out on google
[01:37] <thoreauputic> mc_ren: and read the ssh man page with attention to the -D flag
[01:37] <mc_ren> nothing good found
[01:37] <mc_ren> only for non debian systems
[01:37] <mc_ren> -D?
[01:37] <thoreauputic> mc_ren: yes
[01:37] <n2diy> un_operateur: And that is what would happen if it sees the Windows partition no?
[01:37] <CVirus> Is there any solution for the sudden high CPU usage after upgrading from dapper to edgy ?
[01:37] <mc_ren> thoreauputic: will this also work when client is behind box?
[01:37] <IndyGUnFreak> Does anyone here use Xubuntu?

[01:38] <Boglizk> IndyGUnFreak: Id try #Xubuntu

[01:38] <IndyGUnFreak> hm, i've heard it works better on slower, older machines(apparently a lighter desktop than Gnome KDE)
[01:38] <crowley1027> Help:  I have no sound.  It was working fine a couple minutes ago, and now nothing.  I can hear the airy nois if i turn my speakers to max, so they aren't muted....i don't know whats going on.
[01:38] <mc_ren> thoreauputic: a proxy? on the nat box or on my home box`?
[01:38] <malikeye> IndyGUnFreak: yes, it is lighter, in general
[01:38] <mc_ren> i'm on the nat client atm
[01:38] <IndyGUnFreak> i'm about to get me a laptop that is kinda old, so i was just curious.
[01:38] <thoreauputic> mc_ren: another box on thenet
[01:38] <mc_ren> oh
[01:38] <ubuntu_> Boglizk: now, how is the pmount working?
[01:38] <un_operateur> n2diy, you mentioned "reinstalling linux" that indicates to me that linux partitions already existed on the drive -- so if you want to reinstall, you can do so without changing any partitions and use the same old ones (without the need to format them too)
[01:39] <IndyGUnFreak> thought it would be fun to install linux and experience wirelss
[01:39] <malikeye> IndyGUnFreak: if you want a really light WM, check out Enlightenment - e16
[01:39] <IndyGUnFreak> i hate enlightenment
[01:39] <mc_ren> thoreauputic: this faces me with a huge problem: i don't have a third, independent box!
[01:39] <malikeye> ok, guess not
[01:39] <ubuntu_> IndyGUnFreak: use fluxbox ;)
[01:39] <mc_ren> any other way to manage this?
[01:39] <IndyGUnFreak> i tried it, and while using it, it felt like i'd just taken a bunch of pills and was screwing with my brain
[01:39] <ubuntu_> What, fluxbox?
[01:39] <deep`> Can i use a samsung phone in ubuntu?
[01:39] <IndyGUnFreak> never got fluxbox to work
[01:39] <IndyGUnFreak> no, enlightenment

[01:39] <ubuntu_> Owh :)
[01:39] <IndyGUnFreak> i swear, it had to be what its like to be stoned...lol
[01:40] <mc_ren> fluxbox is pita!
[01:40] <CVirus> Is there any solution for the sudden high CPU usage after upgrading from dapper to edgy ?
[01:40] <ubuntu_> IndyGUnFreak: uhm... sudo aptitude fluxbox?
[01:40] <IndyGUnFreak> i did that ubutu
[01:40] <thoreauputic> mc_ren: e.g.  ssh -D 1080<EMAIL_ADDRESS><-- need a shell to do this (elsewhere)
[01:40] <crowley1027> ALSA lib pcm_dmix.c:862:(snd_pcm_dmix_open) unable to open slave
[01:40] <crowley1027> Playback open error: -16,Device or resource busy
[01:40] <IndyGUnFreak> but when i get there, i can't ring up any menus, no icons, nothing
[01:40] <ubuntu_> IndyGUnFreak: I got fluxbox to work :)
[01:40] <malikeye> neo_: what is the problem now ?
[01:40] <crowley1027> Thats what i get when i do speaker-test
[01:40] <neo_> the same
[01:40] <neo_> lol
[01:40] <IndyGUnFreak> lol, touche' ubuntu_
[01:40] <thoreauputic> mc_ren: fluxbox rocks!
[01:40] <malikeye> neo_: you can't create a DB ?
[01:40] <ubuntu_> IndyGUnFreak: owh, you have to do much of it yourself :)
[01:40] <neo_> nop
[01:40] <IndyGUnFreak> see, i didn't know that
[01:41] <ubuntu_> No, kidding :)
[01:41] <ubuntu_> With me, all of it went like really easy...
[01:41] <pjman> thought I'd ask one more time before I log off for the day. Does anyone know how to add different languages to the Character Map? I'm specifically looking for German characters.
[01:41] <IndyGUnFreak> tat explains why it didn't work
[01:41] <daggerx> any graphic guru's?
[01:41] <n2diy> Cvirus, don't upgrade? And it isn't really an upgrade Edgy isn't a stable release, so your, living on the edge.
[01:41] <neo_> no i cant create a db i cant access postmaster their is no such file i'm running blind here
[01:41] <un_operateur> IndyGUnFreak, fluxbox is a barebones WM -- it requires you build on it to get it to just how you want it -- it doesnt impose anything on you except the slit and the menu
[01:41] <crowley1027> Can anyone here help me troubleshoot my sound?
[01:41] <malikeye> neo_: try here : /usr/lib/postgresql/7.4/bin/initdb
[01:41] <daggerx> could that be the random lockups i get?
[01:41] <crowley1027> my sound problem?
[01:41] <mc_ren> thoreauputic: to be honest i've only seen some screenshots. but they didn't really convict me
[01:42] <ubuntu_> un_operateur: nice explaination :)
[01:42] <IndyGUnFreak> hmm
[01:42] <IndyGUnFreak> well i coudlnt' even get the menu to work
[01:42] <ubuntu_> IndyGUnFreak: right mouse button
[01:42] <IndyGUnFreak> i haven't tried it in a while, matter of fact, it was under Dapper.
[01:42] <thoreauputic> mc_ren: you need to live with flux for a while to appreciate it :)
[01:42] <un_operateur> ubuntu_, its how the official fb team puts it :)
[01:42] <neo_> root@nebuchadnezzar:/usr/lib/postgresql/8.1/bin# ls

[01:42] <malikeye> IndyGUnFreak: yeah, you need to edit files to get menus workin with the *box's
[01:42] <neo_> nop

[01:42] <un_operateur> !paste | neo

[01:45] <deep`> ubuntu_, not that i know of, anyway
[01:45] <ubuntu_> deep`: is it some sort of standard protocol?

[01:47] <crowley1027> thoreauputic: Totem could not startup.  The audio output is in use by another application.  Please select another audio output in the blablablabla
[01:47] <deep`> ubuntu_, cuz its samsung support : D but someone can have written some program for it, i hope. :)
[01:47] <thoreauputic> IndyGUnFreak: i just ugagged him
[01:47] <thoreauputic> umm ungagged :)
[01:47] <IndyGUnFreak> mods have to much power here
[01:48] <ubuntu_> deep`: In the first place, ask samsung, and while doing that, query google.
[01:48] <IndyGUnFreak> how do you become a mod?
[01:48] <thoreauputic> malikeye: no
[01:48] <n2diy> un_operateur: roger your last, tnx.
[01:48] <LjL> Ubotu, tell IndyGUnFreak about guidelines | IndyGUnFreak, see the private message from Ubotu
[01:48] <malikeye> thoreauputic: how did you get "root" to do that ?
[01:48] <thoreauputic> IndyGUnFreak:  you behave and help and you might be asked :)
[01:48] <IndyGUnFreak> LjL, it was a question
[01:48] <IndyGUnFreak> thor, i don't want to.
[01:48] <LjL> IndyGUnFreak: and there's an answer
[01:48] <IndyGUnFreak> i was just curious
[01:48] <mc_ren> thoreauputic: can you help me with that ssh issue?
[01:48] <mc_ren> i will try fluxbox then
[01:48] <kd7swh> can I get some ffmpeg help
[01:48] <crowley1027> thoreauputic: Totem could not startup.  The audio output is in use by another application.  Please select another audio output in the blablablabla
[01:48] <IndyGUnFreak> well, you're saying i'm disrespecting, i've disrespected noone

[01:49] <LjL> crowley1027: ?
[01:49] <crowley1027> not that i can see
[01:49] <IndyGUnFreak> i'm happy to be nobody...lol
[01:49] <deep`> ubuntu_, well, asking samsung dont seem like a really.. good idea. Even if they would answer, which i doubt, it would probably take them weeks. And i've got windows installed long before that D:
[01:49] <kd7swh> god I hate ffmpeg
[01:49] <crowley1027> LjL: sorry :-P
[01:49] <crowley1027> thoreauputic: not that i can see
[01:49] <ubuntu_> deep`: in either case, do the google thing :)
[01:50] <n2diy> mc_ren: what is the ssh question?
[01:50] <thoreauputic> crowley1027: maybe something like a game, or skype or something
[01:50] <IndyGUnFreak> do the google thing?
[01:50] <deep`> ubuntu_, yeah, been doing it for the past 20 minutes :D
[01:50] <IndyGUnFreak> lol
[01:50] <crowley1027> gaim, volume control, firefox, terminal.
[01:50] <ubuntu_> deep`: And just a question... why do you think samsung will not react soon enough?
[01:50] <thoreauputic> crowley1027: if you have an oss app open it hogs the sound ( /dev/dsp )
[01:50] <crowley1027> how do i check ?
[01:51] <deep`> ubuntu_, big company, dont think they will ever care about little me :)
[01:51] <ubuntu_> deep`: I've got a samsung myself, had a small prob with it before... I wrote an email, and the next day it was all solved (even though I solved it an hour after sending the mail, anyhow)

[01:51] <ubuntu_> Is there some sort of CRTL + ALT + DEL in linux?? Nautilus is crashing :)
[01:51] <deep`> ubuntu_, umm, okay, ill mail them then :D
[01:51] <ubuntu_> deep`: :)
[01:51] <kd7swh> does the dsp in /dev/dsp stand for digital signal proccessing too?
[01:51] <deep`> ubuntu_, ctrl + esc, works for me : D
[01:52] <crowley1027> thoreauputic: how do i check to see whats using my sound?
[01:52] <malikeye> kd7swh: it should
[01:52] <ubuntu_> deep`: what does that do?
[01:52] <deep`> ubuntu_, dunno if thats kde only or something
[01:52] <ubuntu_> hmm, prolly
[01:52] <deep`> ubuntu_, bring up an "process manager"? :D
[01:52] <thoreauputic> crowley1027: fuser,  or lsof
[01:52] <deep`> a*
[01:52] <ubuntu_> ok, I'm gonna be back in a sec (CRTL + ALT + BACKSPACING)
[01:52] <kd7swh> malikeye, kind of a ham question
[01:52] <crowley1027> type "fuser" in terminal?
[01:52] <thoreauputic> *sigh*
[01:53] <LjL> kd7swh: it does
[01:53] <UPC> FirstStrike, I cannot get the errorous Flash Plugin _deleted_ which causes firefox to crash
[01:54] <UPC> FirstStrike, I would like to delete the bad flash plugin first in order to install the backports one
[01:54] <mc_ren> n2diy: you think this is possible?
[01:54] <kd7swh> next /dev/cw or /dev/psk will pop up lol
[01:55] <n2diy> mc_ren, you can't forward ports, I think for ssh all you need to forward is 22?
[01:55] <mc_ren> n2diy: i can't forward any port
[01:55] <Rageagainstthis> are you able to print out to a pdf with cups?  I am trying to figure out some margin problems and some others as well.

[01:56] <skeeto> how do you decompress a .rar file on Ubuntu?
[01:56] <un_operateur> UPC, you'll need to remove the existing flash plugins in /usr/lib/firefox/plugins and have a go again (make a backup of them elsewhere)

[02:00] <mc_ren> that's the point
[02:00] <iain> un_operateur: Can I force it or should I downgrade?

[02:01] <un_operateur> iain, well, the package is meant for edgy -- you might want to download all the new gimp packages and install them
[02:01] <malikeye> DROP all but disney.com :)
[02:01] <LeGreffi3R> Bonsoir  tous
[02:01] <thoreauputic> crowley1027 ? back ? try  sudo lsof | grep /dev/dsp   (sorry was afk)
[02:01] <LeGreffi3R> et joyeux nol
[02:01] <iain> un_operateur: my /etc/apt/sources.list uses dapper repos so how could the package be meant for edgy?
[02:01] <malikeye> !french
[02:01] <ubotu> Allez a #ubuntu-fr ou #kubuntu-fr pour de l'aide et de la discussion en francais.
[02:01] <n2diy> Well you'll have to convince his uncle to let you do that, otherwise your attempting to crack the uncles network, illegal in most places.
[02:02] <LeGreffi3R> oh sorry, late in france... bye!
[02:02] <thoreauputic> LeGreffi3R: merci :)
[02:02] <iain> LeGreffi3R: Is it Christmas already in France?
[02:02] <LeGreffi3R> it's 24
[02:02] <iain> OK
[02:03] <malikeye> xmas eve
[02:03] <malikeye> what time is it there ?
[02:03] <cmweb> What ssh client is avalibal for ubuntu?
[02:03] <mc_ren> n2diy: we could only obtain physical violence to his uncle to do this. and since we are friendly guys that only want the for all women and men we won't do so
[02:03] <LeGreffi3R> 2 in the morning :D
[02:03] <cmweb> it needs to be a terminal type
[02:03] <malikeye> cmweb: openssh
[02:03] <mc_ren> best
[02:03] <ragnar_123> cmweb: openssh
[02:03] <cmweb> k
[02:03] <berbear_> is it possible to install edgy (not uppgrade)" and still keep my current settings?
[02:03] <un_operateur> iain, you'll need to do it manually
[02:03] <cmweb> thanks
[02:03] <AdamKili> HELP please. The installer keeps crashing on both the alternate and desktop CDs. here's what the error in the Desktop CD says: http://rafb.net/p/7zphnq30.txt
[02:04] <un_operateur> iain, or temporarily use the edgy repos (but i dont advise that) to download the new gimp packages
[02:04] <n2diy> mc_ren: What can I say, either way would be illegal.
[02:04] <AdamKili> (ubuntu paste wasn't working for some reason)
[02:04] <cmweb> wait open ssh i have and i dont want that, i need something like putty
[02:04] <patrik> i'm on dapper server and trying to install build essentials to be able to run make manuconfig. But i have probs installing the build essentials. I get this: http://paste-it.net/799
[02:04] <LjL> cmweb: ... then get putty?
[02:04] <aliendream23> I need help, I cannot get a partition to mount??

[02:04] <berbear_> is it possible to install edgy (not uppgrade)" and still keep my current settings?
[02:04] <malikeye> cmweb: there is  a port, yes

[02:04] <kd7swh> putty*
[02:04] <un_operateur> berbear_, sure
[02:05] <LjL> cmweb: you still haven't got the concept of doing an apt-cache search... have you? :)

[02:05] <un_operateur> berbear_, as long as you dont format your /home partition
[02:05] <cmweb> ljl, nope i guess not
[02:05] <insomniac656> Do I need the ubuntu CD burnt to do a net install?
[02:05] <thoreauputic> LjL: personally I think the linux version of putty sucks :)
[02:05] <berbear_> un_operateur: wat about programs downloaded from synaptic? do they still hang around?

[02:05] <main2> i would like to make a quality dvd rip, should i use xvid/divx or h.264 (x264) ?
[02:05] <n2diy> mc_ren, and dead too.
[02:05] <main2> any tips?
[02:05] <AdamKili> un_operateur: how? is it on the alternate CD? is there a guide?
[02:05] <malikeye> insomniac656: depends on the arch and your skills
[02:05] <jaek> anyone know how to change file type associations in gnome?

[02:06] <insomniac656> on the arch??
[02:06] <malikeye> insomniac656: I did a sparc install the other day with onlt a 7MB boot image
[02:06] <kd7swh> main2, I use ogg, theora
[02:06] <insomniac656> okay..
[02:06] <patrik> jaek: rightclick the file and choose properties. now you can change it just like winxp
[02:06] <un_operateur> berber, unfortunately no -- the install packages will remain if you dont format /var .. but the apps wont be around
[02:06] <kd7swh> main2, try kungfu
[02:06] <main2> kd7swh: never used x264?
[02:06] <insomniac656> Well, I want to setup ubuntu on my notebook, but the cd drive is crap...
[02:06] <jaek> patrik: thanks
[02:06] <un_operateur> AdamKili, on the alternate CD -- i think you type help -- and it shows you
[02:06] <kd7swh> main2, x264 is nice
[02:06] <n2diy> LjL, where you following the thread, he is trying to crack his "uncles" network.
[02:06] <malikeye> insomniac656: yeah, you would need a tftp server, and a probably a pxe server
[02:06] <kd7swh> main2, it like xvid over x264
[02:07] <insomniac656> So I wanted to see if I could have the iso/image on my desktop somehow and have it install over on my notebook.
[02:07] <klon> Ive got a 20G hard drive being recognised as a 2.1G and grubs throwing error 18 at me does anyone know what the problem might be and how to fix it?
[02:07] <AdamKili> un_operateur: k i'll try.
[02:07] <malikeye> insomniac656: got a usb keychain drive or something ?
[02:07] <kd7swh> main2, kungfu rips ogg\theroa files they look nice too
[02:07] <un_operateur> AdamKili, but beware - it requires that you know a bit about linux - and it uses the keyboard mainly
[02:07] <insomniac656> Can I use ethernet cable?
[02:07] <berbear_> i wan to use photoshop, matlab. shd i use vmware or wine or xover office???
[02:07] <insomniac656> Ethernet -> ethernet?
[02:07] <main2> kd7swh: i want the nicest ;)
[02:07] <main2> to be able to bring you the nicests ;)
[02:07] <AdamKili> un_operateur: that's y i wanted to know if there was a guide to using it?
[02:08] <LjL> n2diy, no i didn't follow from the start, i just noticed messages i shouldn't be seeing and backscrolled a little.
[02:08] <un_operateur> AdamKili, errm, i dunno - let's see
[02:08] <w3ccv>  berbear_ instead of photoshop - have you tried Gimp?  good and free
[02:08] <kd7swh> main2, I really like kungfu, but I have done some nice xvid with dvdrip, and k9copy
[02:08] <berbear_> w3ccv: im more used to photoshop... im waiting for pixel though
[02:08] <main2> kd7swh you got a link for kungfu?
[02:09] <main2> i cant find it :|
[02:09] <berbear_> so do i use wine/xover? or do i have to use vmware... vmware seems troublesome
[02:09] <un_operateur> LjL, do you know if there's a wiki or somesuch for an "expert install" ??
[02:09] <kd7swh> main2, let me see if I can find one for you
[02:09] <n2diy> LjL, roger that, he wanted help setting up port forwarding, and it turns out he didn't have access to the router, and then it got weird.
[02:09] <main2> cool
[02:09] <LjL> un_operateur: no idea
[02:09] <un_operateur> AdamKili, no idea :)
[02:09] <cmweb> is wget avalibal to freebsd over ssh?
[02:10] <thoreauputic> un_operateur: the main gotcha with the expert install is that you have to set up /etc/sudoers manually
[02:10] <AdamKili> un_operateur: thanks. I'll c if i can figure it out.
[02:10] <kd7swh> main2, http://jasonderose.org/kungfu/releases/ get the latest deb file
[02:10] <peirce141> I'm having a problem with ssh, I can't seem to connect from any machines on my local network, it keeps saying connection timed out
[02:10] <un_operateur> AdamKili, yea, all it takes is a little common sense and a space computer to go googling/ircing
[02:10] <un_operateur> spare*
[02:10] <malikeye> peirce141: did you install openssh-server ?
[02:10] <peirce141> malikeye: yep
[02:11] <malikeye> peirce141: can you ssh to <IP_ADDRESS> ?
[02:11] <Malachi> I can't seem to change my controls through theming.
[02:11] <un_operateur> AdamKili, note what thoreauputic said too -- it's important
[02:11] <peirce141> malikeye: yep
[02:11] <w3ccv> malikeye, is sshd running?
[02:11] <malikeye> is iptables --list clean ?
[02:11] <Malachi> Some things changed, but other things, like the scrollbar, stay the same.
[02:11] <berbear_> what shd i  use to run Adobe Photoshop and MATLAB? Will Xover Office or wine be fine, or do i have to use vmware? Which gives better performance(vmware has vmtools installed)?
[02:11] <main2> kd7swh thanks :-))))))))))
[02:11] <klon> Ive got a 20G hard drive being recognized as a 2.1G in the bios and grubs throwing error 18 at me anyone know how to fix it?
[02:11] <m12> where does the palm applet sync the pictures to?
[02:11] <peirce141> malikeye: what do you mean by clean?
[02:11] <thoreauputic> AdamKili: rad up on visudo, and check that you use the admin group and add your user etc
[02:11] <n2diy> kd7swh: where are you in 7 land?
[02:12] <malikeye> peirce141: are you using a firewall knowingly ?
[02:12] <skeeto> !mp3
[02:12] <un_operateur> berber, vmware -- that way you can run windows within (which you probably will need for something or the other)

[02:12] <thoreauputic> AdamKili: umm "read up on visudo"
[02:12] <malikeye> peirce141: if not, check iptables --list to make sure it's not blocking 22
[02:12] <peirce141> malikeye: only from my router

[02:13] <n2diy> kd7swh: RR
[02:13] <codemonkey2> and how can i fix it, kde seems to take longer to boot up and get the error
[02:13] <peirce141> malikeye: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/38600/
[02:13] <peirce141> malikeye: that's the output
[02:13] <LeSages> i want to use this site radioblogclub but it don't run
[02:14] <kd7swh> n2diy, ah what do you think about the prospects of no code extras
[02:14] <Anarchy> You can pay me 25 dollars a day to run this channel
[02:14] <codemonkey2> ne1????
[02:14] <Anarchy> not like you all do much you depend on debian and other distros to make your distro what it is
[02:14] <thoreauputic> Anarchy: are you familiar with scandinavian folk tales?
[02:14] <malikeye> peirce141: that netstat looks ok.. it iptables doing anything ?
[02:14] <DragonD> Can anyone help me?
[02:14] <daggerx> does napster still work under linux?
[02:15] <thoreauputic> Anarchy: continue and you will disappear
[02:15] <daggerx> the napster client
[02:15] <Anarchy> oh do not threaten you hater
[02:15] <n2diy> kd7swh:  not a good thing, at least they should have kept the 5wpm.  Welcome to #ubuntu!
[02:16] <daggerx> <<<not a gentoo fan
[02:16] <codemonkey2> yes hello
[02:17] <malikeye> peirce141: is this machine out in the public in any way ?
[02:17] <peirce141> malikeye: nope, only connected to the local network
[02:17] <codemonkey2> yeah i liked gentoo, was much faster, but then again was only running openbox, so wasnt hogging the memory like kde, but i like the easiness of ubuntu install
[02:17] <w3ccv> peirce141, does your router port forward port 22?
[02:17] <peirce141> w3ccv: i don't believe so
[02:17] <malikeye> peirce141: can you
[02:17] <kd7swh> n2diy, I did the no code tech years ago never upgraded, my father has a tech plus I am going to upgrade (planing on using cw) I don't think it will be all bad as long as we don't get another part 95 service on our hands
[02:17] <daggerx> I have a question... i installed edubuntu over ubuntu....   i want it gone lol... how can i remove it without reinstalling?
[02:18] <peirce141> malikeye: can I what?
[02:18] <codemonkey2> i want this error gone - The process for the system protocol died unexpectedly. - what is it???
[02:18] <malikeye> peirce141: can you '/etc/init.d/iptables stop' and try to connect from a remote machine ?
[02:18] <peirce141> yea sure, give me a minute
[02:18] <n2diy> kd7swh: RR, I'm going to brush up on my code too, I'd be lucky if I'm still at 5wpm.
[02:18] <jeeves_Moss> all:  can someone help me with Kismet and GPSD?
[02:18] <w3ccv> peirce141, if you're trying to connect from outside then you need to port forward through it
[02:18] <peirce141> w3ccv: only from local boxes
[02:18] <hax_> hey all
[02:18] <skeeto> is there a command to configure you audio?  I know for instance on redhat you can do sndconfig
[02:18] <malikeye> peirce141: remote meaning a different box on the same network
[02:19] <ragnar_123> Hi Hax_!
[02:19] <w3ccv> peirce141, ok

[02:19] <juano> is this a routing issue?
[02:20] <un_operateur> malikeye, he needs to put the ssh rule in iptables somewhere near the top -- atm it's after the DROP-DROP rule and therefore might never get used
[02:20] <DragonD> What drive does the ubuntu installer install grub on?
[02:20] <malikeye> un_operateur: yeah, I was having a hard time reading that :) not a firewall guy
[02:20] <berbear_> how can i get hdd vibration protection on my laptop to work?
[02:20] <w3ccv> malikeye, i think you mean iptables -F  (Flush)
[02:21] <malikeye> w3ccv: on ubuntu it could be... I am an ubuntu noob
[02:21] <hax_> i dont understand why sometimes the graphics would go all wacky, and sometimes work fine
[02:21] <juano> i need help with my xp machine from LAN, cant go in hotmail.com or msn.com but everywhere else seems ok

[02:26] <whitedragon> hi everybody, is there somethong wrong with this line in fstab??  "/dev/hda5       /media/data   vfat    gid=100,umask=0007,fmask=0117,utf8 0       0"
[02:26] <whitedragon> something*
[02:26] <juano> what i mean is i cant go in from xp machine
[02:26] <tonyyarusso> jackson3246: Have you run fsck on the partition?
[02:26] <juano> from ubuntu it works good
[02:26] <jackson3246> tonyyarusso: not aside from the fsck performed at boot
[02:26] <ifwr> anyone here know regular expressions?
[02:26] <n2diy_> ifwr, sure.
[02:27] <un_operateur> peirce141, maybe -- /etc/init.d/iptables stop
[02:27] <tonyyarusso> jackson3246: No problems while actually running?
[02:27] <neopsyche> hello
[02:27] <peirce141> un_operateur: /etc/init.d/iptables doesn't exist
[02:27] <jackson3246> tonyyarusso: nope. I'm on it right now
[02:27] <neopsyche> can anyone help me.. set up ppp connection for ISP on ubuntu?
[02:27] <un_operateur> whitedragon, i suspect it is wrong because vfat doesnt support permissions and u/fmasks
[02:27] <w3ccv> peirce141,  you need to tell iptables what to accept that port  sudo iptables -I INPUT 1 -p tcp --dport 22 -j ACCEPT
[02:27] <tonyyarusso> !modem | neopsyche
[02:28] <ubotu> neopsyche: You want to connect via dial-up? Read https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DialupModemHowto
[02:28] <neopsyche> Not sure how this works
[02:28] <n2diy_> neopsyche: sure.
[02:28] <tonyyarusso> jackson3246: Very odd
[02:28] <neopsyche> on windows.. I just go to .. create new connection.
[02:28] <hax_> is it possible to make the livecd boot to a shell instead of X?
[02:28] <peirce141> w3ccv: i'll try, one sec
[02:28] <ifwr> n2diy, this regular expression echo "$@" | sed,s,:,\ -,g | tr \ /\* _+ | tr -d \'\"\?\[:cntrl:\]  is used by abcde to convert CDDB data to a filename.  I don't want spaces translated to underscores.  How should I alter it?
[02:28] <n2diy_> neopsyche: ummm, how are you here, if you can't setup ppp?
[02:28] <un_operateur> peirce141, are you sure -- try tabbing your way there
[02:28] <neopsyche> Theres a wifi radio on my roof
[02:28] <neopsyche> im using XP and my conneciton
[02:28] <peirce141> un_operateur: the only one that starts with i is inetd
[02:28] <neopsyche> at the mo
[02:29] <neopsyche> other pc has ubuntu on it
[02:29] <n2diy_> neopsyche: ah i c.
[02:29] <Ignite_> !libtunepimp3 > me
[02:29] <jackson3246> tonyyarusso: yeah. I was thinking it might have something to do with UIDs or something. I don't know anything about that though
[02:29] <daggerx> ubuntu -  838users  -- debian 230 or so users ... wow what a change over
[02:29] <neopsyche> so theres a lan cable running down from the wifi radio on the roof and antenna
[02:29] <un_operateur> peirce141, what other firewalling software have you installed?
[02:29] <peirce141> un_operateur: none
[02:29] <neopsyche> that cable is POE
[02:29] <tonyyarusso> jackson3246: It's possible.  Have you checked whether they are different?
[02:29] <peirce141> un_operateur: but, what w3ccv said worked!
