[03:41] <chaosrl> nickrud: thanks, i found what i was looking for in there :P (belated answer xD)
[03:41] <badkitty> BagelMaster: There is a great program to mount images
[03:41] <nickrud> BagelMaster: I have no clue about the format it comes in.
[03:41] <astyler> nickrud: thanks!
[03:41] <badkitty> BagelMaster: Look into gmount-iso
[03:41] <astyler> i'll give that a try
[03:41] <BagelMaster> Badkitty: I first need to compile the pieces into an image to mount
[03:42] <badkitty> BagelMaster: There are also nautilus scripts you can use to do this also.. although I haven't had luck with that one yet..
[03:42] <badkitty> BagelMaster: Part files?
[03:42] <BagelMaster> Yes
[03:42] <BagelMaster> Badkitty :^
[03:42] <Katanova> well 32 bit showed the loading screen at least :p
[03:42] <badkitty> BagelMaster: Tried googleing it?
[03:42] <INOSHU> I tried googleing your mom?
[03:42] <badkitty> Katanova: You have a quick connection dont you
[03:42] <frank23> BagelMaster: is there not an executable to run in that directory?
[03:43] <Katanova> lol na, i got the disk of mi mate
[03:43] <badkitty> Katanova: oh cool
[03:43] <umdoistres> jrib: show that the aplication apt can be found in the packages "sun java6 jdk".. what i do ?
[03:43] <BagelMaster> Frank23 Badkitty: File extensions are all .rXX, one .rar, one .nfo file
 well 32 bit showed the loading screen at least :p
[03:43] <Katanova> but it gets to local boot and then like dose nothing >>
[03:43] <Jangari> past tense? did something else go wrong?
[03:43] <Jangari> ah
[03:44] <frank23> BagelMaster: install unrar-nonfree  package and run unrar x file.rar
[03:44] <Katanova> lol so any ideas :p
[03:44] <badkitty> BagelMaster: Right I see.. Yah it should be able to be run then and it should self compile.. Atleast thats how it works in winblows
[03:44] <nickrud> Katanova: hit the enter key, do you see a login?
[03:44] <Katanova> no
[03:44] <nickrud> Katanova: alt-f2 , do you see a login?
[03:44] <Katanova> i hit enter and it come up with a new line :p
[03:44] <badkitty> BagelMaster: What did you say the other files were? You said something about a binary??
[03:45] <Katanova> i press F2 and it come up with some code for f2, but didnt try alt f2
[03:45] <Katanova> should i go try alt f2 now?
[03:45] <BagelMaster> Badkitty: That was just some vague instructions on the original place of download
[03:45] <nickrud> Katanova: yes, if you can see a login then you are installed but your video is not set up right for gui
[03:45] <cfedde> is there a trivial dns server for a small home network?  I'd rather not run bind if I don't have to.
[03:45] <frank23> BagelMaster: sorry the packege is just unrar
[03:45] <badkitty> BagelMaster: I haven't used parted rar files in linux but in windows you just start the first .rar and all the parts self extract and make on big file
[03:45] <kaoticsnow> quick question what package do I need to install VNC in ubuntu server, I dont want a gui from the console But I wana set it up so I can VNC into the server and get a desktop (for serving the net at work)
[03:46] <kaoticsnow> serfing the net that is
[03:46] <Katanova> well then ok. brb :)
[03:46] <BagelMaster> Frank23 Badkitty:  Ahh, I unrar'd the one .rar file
[03:46] <demon_spork>  When I select My Ubuntu Gutsy install from the boot menu, it says "Failed to mount selected partition" even though the partition mounts fine via IFS in windows and in my Feisty install. I have made no changes to the boot options/loaders since the last successful boot of the system, which was yesterday.
[03:46] <badkitty> BagelMaster: Did that work 4 u
[03:46] <BagelMaster> Frank23 Badkitty:  And got a linuxinstaller.bin
[03:46] <Jangari> kaoticsnow: ubuntu comes pre-built with a vnc viewes
[03:46] <Jangari> viewer
[03:46] <badkitty> BagelMaster: Ok so lets say you run the .bin file?
[03:47] <badkitty> BagelMaster: Or I think you can also click on the icon to run it too from nautilus?
[03:47] <BagelMaster> Badkitty: Nautilus?
[03:47] <Jangari> surfing the net via vnc? how horrible
[03:48] <Jangari> BagelMaster: nautilus is the file browser
[03:48] <BagelMaster> Jangari Badkitty: Oh, wow, never knew that!
[03:48] <BagelMaster> Badkitty: I'm pretty sure it's compiling the parts
[03:48] <badkitty> BagelMaster: The file browser.. from what ive gathered thats what it is
[03:48] <y_o_u> could someone please tell me how the heck i can ping google.com from 7.10, but not browse to it in firefox?
[03:48] <badkitty> BagelMaster: Great
[03:48] <Jangari> i didn't either until a little while ago
[03:49] <badkitty> y_o_u: Hmm.. running any proxies?
[03:49] <BagelMaster> Badkitty: Using a PIII doesn't mean it's going to work fat thought :/
[03:49] <y_o_u> but be able to browse to it in a windows 2000 vm running in 7.10? while having ipv6 turned off?
[03:49] <Jangari> I kept asking if there was a command to 'open' the working directory in a filebrowser, turns out it's just "nautilus /directory"
[03:49] <y_o_u> badkitty: no proxies, but good thought
[03:49] <y_o_u> just wierd stuff
[03:49] <BagelMaster> Badkitty: Argh, it tried to open it in gedit
[03:50] <kaoticsnow> Jangari: thanks
[03:50] <Jangari> found it, kaoticsnow?
[03:50] <badkitty> y_o_u: Hmmm its got to be a setting in firefox... This situation happened to me in windows (imagine that) I could ping a site, but not find it in the browser. WHen I returned to default settings everything worked
[03:50] <roshan> according to the book i'm reading, it says that if u use dh -h . in a directory it will tell u the partition. however, with the directory /sys it shows the partition as /sys. However that does not exits, can someone explain why it shows that.
[03:50] <badkitty> y_o_u: Maybe you can try reset to defaul your settings
[03:50] <nickrud> y_o_u: are you using bridged networking in the vm, so it provides it's own dns?  check /etc/resolv.conf  in linux, that's usually the culprit for your symtoms
[03:51] <umdoistres> whats that message when i try to search a apt ? "the aplication apt can be foun in this packages sun java-jdk" something like this..
[03:51] <badkitty> y_o_u: this is a vm?
[03:51] <y_o_u> nickrud: i thought the same, unfortunately, its correct (and its resolving great at the cli)
[03:51] <Flannel> roshan: if you type "mount" you'll see all sorts of non-physical partitions that are mounted.  Theyre various things used by the OS (ones a ramdisk for the kernel, etc)
[03:51] <nickrud> umdoistres: are you translating the error message? Where are you seeing it?
[03:52] <y_o_u> badkitty: default settings in firefox you mean? and its a win2k vmware image, running in 7.10, from disk
[03:52] <frank23> roshan: more properly, they're filesystems
[03:53] <DoYouKnow> Any fixes yet for that exploit? I read somewhere that the fix is already in the live source trees for hardy
[03:53] <Scunizi> What's the channel for Evolution? won't be needed if anyone here can tell me how to forward a message and actually have it include the original attachment.
[03:53] <badkitty> y_o_u: Yeah that is what I meant.. just a long shot from things Ive seen in windz
[03:53] <roshan> flannel: ah, thx, it did not know that non-physical partitions were called file systems. greatly appreciate it
[03:53] <Meshezabeel> Johnny_5 is alive
[03:53] <Jangari> #evolution ?
[03:53] <Jangari> probably not
[03:53] <Jangari> in fact i doubt it has its own chan
[03:53] <Jangari> use thunderbird instead
[03:53] <nickrud> Scunizi:   irc.gnome.org , #evolution I think
[03:53] <Scunizi> Jangari, it is but I forgot which server.. not freenode.
[03:53] <Jangari> ah
[03:54] <Scunizi> nickrud, thanks.. I forgot the server..
[03:54] <y_o_u> badkitty: worth a shot, thanks for the go
[03:54] <Jangari> does anyone know how to get my laptop switching off the speakers when headphones are plugged in?
[03:55] <nickrud> umdoistres:  what are you doing when you see that error?
[03:55] <Meshezabeel> Jangari, do you have a different set of headphones you could try?
[03:55] <frank23> roshan: no the filesystems are what's mounted. either virtual ones or physical ones (that are on a partition)
[03:55] <Jangari> i do, hold on, but i doubt it's the headphones, as the same headphones worked well under windows,
[03:56] <frank23> Jangari: try playing the the switches in the sound mixer
[03:56] <umdoistres> nickrud: oh.. i forget, but thanks for the atention..
[03:56] <Jack_Sparrow> Jangari: Some laptops dont use a physical switch from the pin when the headphones go in to kill the speakers they do it with software..  not sure how to fix it though
[03:56] <frank23> Jangari: there might be a switch that disables speakers when headphones are plugged in
[03:57] <Jangari> i think it's software, since the same laptop under windows used to disable the speakers like i wanted
[03:58] <roshan> roshan: ah, tyvm frank. that clears up a lot.
[03:58] <roshan> arghh
[03:58] <Jangari> but there ain't nothing in prefs > sound
[03:58] <roshan> frank: ah, tvm frank. that clears up a lot
[03:58] <Hammer89> Jangari: I have the same problem... still haven't figured out a fix for it
[03:58] <Jangari> mm
[03:58] <frank23> Jangari: did you look in the sound mixer app? the one with the different channels (Master, PCM...)
[03:58] <thinman1189> !tor
[03:58] <ubotu> TOR is a project aiming to provide anonymous connections via specialized !proxies - See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/TOR for information and help - Note that TOR is blocked on most Ubuntu IRC channels, please see !hostmask and !tor-gpg
[03:58] <Jangari> surely some geek could come up with a bugfix
[03:58] <frank23> Jangari: in KDE it's KMix not sure about gnome
[03:59] <Hammer89> Jangari: out of curiosity... what laptop are you using?
[03:59] <Meshezabeel> Jangari, you are probably correct, if it works under windows then it should work under linux. I've had headphones in the past that didn't work properly and the sound would play through both the headphones and speakers.
[03:59] <Jangari> hp... um....
[03:59] <Jangari> hp "compaq" nc6220
[03:59] <Jangari> work machine
[03:59] <Hammer89> Jangari: hmm... not the same as mine then
[04:00] <Jangari> frank23: i can't find that app
[04:00] <Jangari> should i have it by default?
[04:00] <kaoticsnow> Jangari: ubuntu server should havce a VNC server by default you said?
[04:00] <Jack_Sparrow> Jangari: Please dont use enter for punctuation hitting enter every three or four words get annoying
[04:01] <Meshezabeel> Hammer89, what laptop you using?
[04:01] <Jangari> on reflection kaoticsnow, i don't know about ubuntu server, but ubuntu desktop has it in internet > terminal server client

[04:01] <frank23> Jangari: I don't know I don't run gnome. But there must be some program you can use to try the sound switches. Or just use alsamixer in the terminal directly
[04:01] <Jangari> sorry Jack_Sparrow, i'll be good in future
[04:01] <kaoticsnow> yea I have Server installed no GUI by defalut all command line,
[04:01] <siriusnova> can anyone point me in the right direction to set up a fully encrypted File System under Ubuntu Gutsy Gibbon
[04:01] <Katanova> got little more progress :D
[04:01] <Jack_Sparrow> thanks
[04:01] <siriusnova> that isn't such a PITA
[04:01] <siriusnova> :(
[04:02] <thinman1189> does anyone know where I can find a tor/privoxy/ff/gaim/thunderbird/xchat/azureus guide for 7.10? !tor only gives for 6.10 and 7.04
[04:02] <Hammer89> Jangari: one thing I haven't tried yet that I hope to try... is to run a Ubuntu 8.04 alpha LiveCD to see if sound works on it
[04:02] <CaptainMorgan> not getting a decent answer... and ubuntu folks tend to be smart- plus still all started around the evolution of pidgin:  is yahoo only allowed to talk to yahoo? (IM's), running multiple machines, multiple clients and it appears AIM users can't communicate with known yahoo users. The yahoo users say I'm offline, and I say the yahoo users are offline.. is there some incompatibility issue going on? Ive tested Trillian, AIM, and
[04:02] <CaptainMorgan>  Pidgin, on more than four machines- what might be the problem?
[04:03] <kaoticsnow> What packages need to be installed for VNC server to operate? I dont want a GUI at the local system just the Ability to VNC to a GUI.

[04:03] <mneptok> Jangari: are you comfortable in a terminal?
[04:03] <Katanova> this time it say (in gui) low gfx mode and i pressed continue and it went back to where i was before @ the loacl boot scripts, so i press alt f2 and came up with the console... i know nothing about the linux console lol
[04:03] <Jangari> mneptok: more or less
[04:03] <nickrud> Katanova:  what video card do you have?
[04:03] <Katanova> 8600 GT
[04:03] <Katanova> ASUS
[04:04] <Hammer89> Meshezabeel: I'll try that
[04:04] <Meshezabeel> Hammer89, Jangari but try alsamixer and see if it works first
[04:04] <nickrud> Katanova: a sec, I want to check someting
[04:04] <Katanova> ok :)
[04:04] <bastid_raZor> CaptainMorgan; from my understanding you can't cross talk IM's .. pidgin allows you to have only 1 application that handles them all. that doesn't mean if you have yahoo you can talk to someone on aim via a yahoo account

[04:05] <JJNova> Hi. I was hoping someone could tell me how to remove all the packages included with a dummy package. For instance, I installed lde-core , and would now like to remove everything that was installed with kde-core , but just removing kde-core only removes the dummy package.
[04:06] <Hammer89> Meshezabeel: Okay
[04:06] <Jangari> i'll try that now, mneptok

[04:08] <Keiyentai> I know Ubuntu works with the X1K series. Though when I have tried other distro's it doesent seem to like the HD
[04:09] <joey_> badkitty: so what exactly do i do?
[04:09] <Hammer89> Meshezabeel: hmmmm... they just released new alsa drivers...
[04:09] <ere4si> kaoticsnow, try this - http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=122402

[04:09] <nickrud> Katanova: the best howto I found is http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=2791480 , you can do this at the console
[04:09] <badkitty> joey_: Go to a terminal and type sudo apt-get install ubuntu-restricted-extras

[04:11] <Meshezabeel> Hammer89, maybe this problem has been fixed in the new ones, worth a shot
[04:11] <mneptok> Jangari: aye, or an alsa restart
[04:11] <Benzin> So quiet.
[04:11] <Jangari> how can i restart alsa?
[04:11] <mneptok> Jangari: restart is easier. unloading all the alsa related modules is tiresome.

[04:11] <Sir_Sid> does the amarok package for ubuntu come with dcop compiled in it?

[04:12] <nickrud> mneptok: that is a classic of understatement
[04:12] <Meshezabeel> Hammer89, looks like on that site I gave you, that the -with-cards=hda-intel is important. So if the new alsa is compiled with this option by default it might be okay.

[04:14] <queuetue> Hi.  Is there a clean way to temporarily switch the system compiler to gcc 3.4, then switch it back after a compile is done?
[04:14] <nickrud> Keiyentai: not properly. You'll want to wait for hardy
[04:14] <CaptainMorgan> bastid_raZor, that's confusing, because Trillian supposedly can handle this
[04:14] <mneptok> Keiyentai: ATI *anything* is a crapshoot on Linux
[04:14] <Keiyentai> urg.
[04:14] <Keiyentai> Cause I want to dual boot.
[04:14] <zippytech> i have a full hard drive and been looking for days to find out why it is full
[04:14] <mneptok> Keiyentai: yeah. *thanks* ATI.
[04:14] <CaptainMorgan> at least it could bastid_raZor at one point it did, I'm 110% sure of it
[04:14]  * nickrud runs ati, and agrees, reluctantly
[04:15] <Keiyentai> I don't care if I can't have Beryl I just want to be able to boot it.

[04:16] <compwiz18> um, Keiyentai how new is that card?

[04:18] <compwiz18> Keiyentai: so it's an ati chipset, so fglrx should support it, is my thinking
[04:18] <nickrud> !gutsysources | Smegzo1
[04:18] <ubotu> Smegzo1: gutsysources is in System->Admin->Software Sources, enable (main) (universe) (restricted) and (multiverse) and disable the Cdrom on the Ubuntu Software tab. On the Updates tab, enable (gutsy-security) and (gutsy-updates).
[04:18] <Keiyentai> VisionTek mybad
[04:18] <mneptok> Jangari: any love?
[04:18] <Keiyentai> ok.
[04:18] <Jangari> mneptok: still no good i'm afraid. Is it relevant that there's a very small reset-style hole next to my headphones jack?
[04:18] <thinman1189> does anyone know where I can find a tor/privoxy/ff/gaim/thunderbird/xchat/azureus guide for 7.10? !tor only gives for 6.10 and 7.04
[04:19] <bastid_raZor> CaptainMorgan; i have used trillian in the past and no it too is just like pidgin.. all IM's in one bundled application that could NOT cross talk .. you had to have an account for each IM in order to talk to others
[04:19] <Keiyentai> Is there a DVD edition of 7.10 or just CD
[04:19] <compwiz18> Keiyentai: if the card is less then 4 months old, though, it may not be recognized by ubuntu gutsy because it would be newer then fglrx drivers
[04:19] <mneptok> Jangari: try changing that line you added to read "options snd-hda-intel model=laptop-hp" (no quotes).
[04:19] <CaptainMorgan> ok, thanks bastid_raZor
[04:19] <badkitty> Pretty sure there is a dvd version
[04:19] <compwiz18> Keiyentai: there is a dvd edition, it's trickier to find though
[04:19] <compwiz18> Keiyentai: http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/releases/7.10/release/
[04:20] <Keiyentai> the card is about 6 or so months at least
[04:20] <nickrud> compwiz18: make that 7 or 8 months, that's how old the gutsy driver is
[04:20] <mneptok> Keiyentai: http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/releases/7.10/release/ubuntu-7.10-dvd-i386.iso.torrent
[04:20] <Jangari> I'll know next time i restart I guess, otherwise, that page that Hammer89 suggested looks like it has a fix
[04:21] <zach382> Hello, I am running 7.10 and after the latest kernel update, I can't access my tty consoles anymore.
[04:21] <zach382> Can someone help me get them back?
[04:21] <INOSHU> This channel needs less serious, moar nigger jokes and moms
[04:21]  * nickrud waits
[04:21] <astyler> k
[04:21] <astyler> shazam!
[04:22] <nickrud> 22 seconds, acceptable :)
[04:22] <astyler> in his defense...
[04:22] <astyler> hmmm
[04:22] <astyler> i got nothin
[04:22] <slackon> who knows anything about wireless . Madwifi? ..
[04:22] <joey_> still there badkitty?
[04:23] <Katanova> :o
[04:23] <badkitty> joey_: yeah
[04:23] <joey_> my sound's still not working
[04:23] <slackon> .
[04:23] <joey_> any ideas?
[04:24] <Keiyentai> well thank you for the links and all. hopefully I can run Vesa
[04:24] <AdamNess> org
[04:24] <badkitty> joey_: Nah cant think of any at the moment
[04:24] <Keiyentai> I have a nice 60GB I am using for Linux
[04:24] <zach382> Does anyone know anything about virtual consoles (ctrl alt f1,f2...)? and how to fix a flashing underscore?
[04:24] <sileni> anyone got the bcm943611 card to work with ubuntu ?
[04:24] <demonspork>  When I select My Ubuntu Gutsy install from the boot menu, it says "Failed to mount selected partition" even though the partition mounts fine via IFS in windows and in my Feisty install. I have made no changes to the boot options/loaders since the last successful boot of the system, which was yesterday.
[04:25] <JJNova> Ha.
[04:25] <JJNova> I fixed it. COmpletely removed Kubuntu.
[04:25] <tonarp> where can i download ubuntu
[04:26] <JJNova> sudo apt-get remove kcontrol kdebase-bin kdebase-data kdebase-kio-plugins kdelibs-data kdelibs4c2a kdesktop kfind kicker konqueror konsole kwin libkonq4 arts kappfinder kate kde-core kdebase kdelibs kdepasswd kdeprint khelpcenter klipper kmenuedit konqueror-nsplugins kpager kpersonalizer ksmserver ksplash ksysguard ksysguardd ktip poster psutils
[04:26] <tritium> tonarp: from the website: www.ubuntu.com
[04:26] <tonarp> ok
[04:27] <bastid_raZor> tonarp; http://releases.ubuntu.com
[04:27] <sendero> server irc-evolution.org
[04:28] <Hammer89> why am I getting permissions errors when I try to configure/make a program from source in my /usr/src/ directory? (I ran it using sudo...)
[04:29] <cr4z3d> does ubuntu 7.10 use udev or hotplug for usb?
[04:29] <Starnestommy> cr4z3d: I think udev
[04:29] <DanaG> Odd.... even using the same .sf2 file, Timidity and my Audigy sound different.
[04:30] <DanaG> Any ideas of how to fix it?
[04:30] <tonarp> how many disk do i need to burn ubuntu?
[04:30] <DanaG> I want Timidity to sound as good as the Audigy on MIDI.
[04:30] <DanaG> .... even if it means high CPU usage.
[04:30] <Starnestommy> tonarp: just one
[04:30] <Jack_Sparrow> tonarp: one
[04:30] <tonarp> ok
[04:30] <Jack_Sparrow> tonarp: Please burn at a slow speed
[04:30] <tonarp> why
[04:31] <DanaG> 4x is good.
[04:31] <thinman1189> does anyone know where I can find a tor/privoxy/ff/gaim/thunderbird/xchat/azureus guide for 7.10? !tor only gives for 6.10 and 7.04
[04:31] <Jack_Sparrow> tonarp: Some machines dont handle the high speed burns
[04:31] <Starnestommy> tonarp: higher speeds cause more errors
[04:31] <DanaG> The slower you burn (until you reach too slow), the better (more 'crisply', you could say) it burns.
[04:31] <Jack_Sparrow> tonarp: I have a couple of Dells that refuse to use cd's that are burned fast
[04:31] <DanaG> But don't go too slow -- I tried one at 1x or 2x and it was worse than a 4x or 8x.
[04:31] <Jack_Sparrow> 4 or 8 is fine
[04:32] <tonarp> ok thanks for your advice
[04:32] <Jack_Sparrow> tonarp: if you have trouble, there are some command line options you can use to get around hardware issues
[04:32] <ere4si> thinman1189, google search gave this as one result - http://faqf1.net.nz/index.php?title=Tor_On_Ubuntu_Gutsy
[04:34] <Jack_Sparrow> Another earthquake milkshake,,,   southern calif.. sorry for the OT but it was a good one
[04:34] <thinman1189> thanks ere4si, I'll check it out tomorrow. good night.
[04:34] <r3n0c> hi, i was having a slight issue, when i boot my desktop has 2 cd drive icons
[04:34] <r3n0c> and in my computer:/// there is a CD-RW drive, followed by another icon which is the cd name, then the normal filesystem icon
[04:35] <DanaG> Anybody here use Timidity?
[04:35] <ere4si> thinman1189, just type in   tor in gutsy
[04:35] <r3n0c> i could get the extra icon off my desktop by removing all volume icons on desktop
[04:35] <r3n0c> but now i have this extra one in computer:///
[04:35] <r3n0c> anybody here know how it could happen?
[04:36] <thinman1189> thanks ere4si, I had been searching tor and privoxy in gutsy and the privoxy was throwing it off, even though prvioxy is included in most tor guides :'(
[04:37] <ere4si> k thinman1189
[04:37] <r3n0c> anybody know why this would happen: i ejected a disk, but it is still listed as being in the comp
[04:37] <r3n0c> but when i click on it it doesn't have any data
[04:37] <LoRez> how can I keep feisty from attempting to bring up my wireless interface on eth1?
[04:38] <dbmoodb> set it as eth2
[04:38] <dbmoodb> but does it really matter lorez
[04:38] <LoRez> uh, yeah, I'd like it to stop turning the damn thing back on.
[04:38] <r3n0c> anybody? i have an extra cd icon... after i eject
[04:39] <xopey> r3n0c: how are you ejecting
[04:39] <xopey> has anyone else had problems with java applications hanging in ubuntu on load
[04:39] <r3n0c> right click, eject on the cd drive
[04:39] <r3n0c> after i did that there is still an extra icon which is named the cd
[04:39] <r3n0c> if i put the disk back in, there are 2 icons on the desktop
[04:40] <Katanova> eh
[04:40] <xopey> hi Kata
[04:40] <xopey> sry, Katanova
[04:40] <ere4si> r3n0c, if you wait ten minutes is the icon still there?
[04:40] <Katanova> guess it just dont like mi 8600 gt :p
[04:40] <Rubin> r3n0c, look in /media and see if theres something in there that shouldnt be
[04:41] <r3n0c> Rubin,  yea it is empty
[04:41] <Biblio> hello. i need to communicate with mark shuttleworth. i have tried the contact adress at his blog, but it seems dead. is there anyone here who could provide some alternative one, or the one of someone who could in turn reach him?
[04:41] <r3n0c> Rubin,  i was just wondering how i could get rid of the extra icon which now exists in my computer:/// and on my desktop
[04:41] <Rubin> r3n0c, can you right click and delete it? maybe its leftover from some previous window manager
[04:41] <ouellettesr> hello, if i wanted to create a tar.gz file would i do tar -czvf foo.tar.gz file.iso ?
[04:41] <Rubin> r3n0c, my understanding is those icons come from whats in /media
[04:42] <Rubin> ouellettesr, yes. but tarring a single file makes no sense
[04:42] <r3n0c> Rubin,  yeah that is what i thought, but it says can't send to trash
[04:42] <Rubin> r3n0c, hrm
[04:42] <r3n0c> Rubin,  i have a CD-RW drive, 'WinXP' icon, and Filesystem icon
[04:42] <r3n0c> the first and third were normal
[04:43] <r3n0c> but 'winxp' (name of the disk) shouldn't be there anymore after it is ejected
[04:43] <Rubin> r3n0c, look in your Desktop folder in your home directory
[04:43] <nomopofomo> how do i change the resolution of the login screen?
[04:43] <threefcata> hi, i'm trying to install XP after i installed ubuntu, but the XP says cannot write to MBR and stuck with..
[04:43] <threefcata> what's wrong
[04:43] <r3n0c> Rubin,  the desktop is empty, but it is set to show mounted volumes
[04:43] <Rubin> nomopofomo, it should be the same resolution as after you log in, isnt it?
[04:44] <ouellettesr> Rubin, you saying basically i cant make it any smaller?
[04:44] <nomopofomo> Rubin, no.
[04:44] <r3n0c> ( i could remove it in gconf-editor.... but then i don't know if i have a disk in there... and technecially there are still 2 icons)
[04:44] <Rubin> r3n0c, tried restarting x?
[04:44] <r3n0c> Rubin,  yea was gonna try that in a sec, gonna try to reinsert the disk first
[04:44] <Rubin> ouellettesr, you can, i think, but its not easy
[04:44] <DanaG> Gaack, Timidity playback is way uneven.
[04:44] <nomopofomo> Rubin, is there any way I might be able to restore all settings related to graphics like when everything was first installed?
[04:44] <r3n0c> Rubin,  yea brb, i'll try  a restart
[04:45] <Rubin> r3n0c, or you could try killing and restarting nautilus
[04:45] <mike_> can anyone tell me why gparted is taken so long to take to find my two 80gb drive
[04:45] <mike_> s
[04:45] <badkitty> threefcata: Install windows first then ubuntu.. make life easy
[04:45] <Rubin> nomopofomo, not all, but those settings are stored in /etc/X11/xorg.conf so you can back that up and restore it
[04:45] <threefcata> badkitty, then i had to go through a hell lot of configuration..
[04:46] <r3n0c> Rubin,  yea a restart seems to have fixed it
[04:46] <Katanova> so can anyone help with the 8600GT problem?
[04:46] <dward526> theefcata ?
[04:46] <Rubin> r3n0c, bug :/
[04:46] <nomopofomo> Rubin, what about the login screen?
[04:46] <badkitty> threefcata: waddayamean?
[04:47] <Rubin> nomopofomo, some of it is in /etc/gdm/gdm.conf or local.conf
[04:47] <threefcata> badkitty, i had been using this ubuntu for a while, and i did a fair amount of configuration, if i scrap it, i have to redo a lot..
[04:47] <Rubin> threefcata, you shouldnt have to scrap it
[04:48] <threefcata> Rubin, but i'm stuck with XP installation..
[04:48] <badkitty> threefcata: Cant you back it up first? All I know is installing windows after ubuntu is a pita
[04:48] <Rubin> threefcata, the install of xp fails?
[04:48] <Rubin> its not that hard badkitty you just have to reinstall grub is all
[04:48] <threefcata> badkitty, i can't find enough space now
[04:48] <badkitty> Rubin: Oh yah. hmm
[04:48] <Katanova> so noone can help with the 8600 GT problem :(
[04:48] <threefcata> Rubin, yes, it failed
[04:49] <Rubin> threefcata, iv never seen linux do anything to a disk that make xp refuse to install
[04:49] <badkitty> threefcata: You gotta make sure you have enough space for xp
[04:49] <Rubin> threefcata, maybe somethin else is goin on?
[04:49] <Rubin> yeah. is there enough free space?
[04:49] <Rubin> what exactly does it say?
[04:49] <_coredump_> anyone here uses the internet dj console with gutsy 7.10?
[04:49] <threefcata> Rubin, yeah, i guess the fact that i'm running the installation program from harddisk has something to do about it..
[04:50] <threefcata> i made the NTFS where XP is going to be bootable and boot from there..
[04:50] <threefcata> then ran winnt32.exe..
[04:50] <puff> Anyone here running gutsy on a thinkpad t43p?
[04:50] <threefcata> but it never get through the step where it is writing to MBR
[04:51] <Katanova> so it copys all the files but not writes the MBR?
[04:51] <Rubin> threefcata, ohhh
[04:51] <dward526> threefcata:  why not a disk install?
[04:51] <puff> threefcata: How big was the NTFS where XP is going to be?
[04:51] <Rubin> threefcata, theres issues with linux making ntfs partitions. dont do that. just free up space and leave it unformatted
[04:51] <Katanova> i maybe could like make the MBR with something else
[04:51] <threefcata> puff, 10g
[04:52] <threefcata> Rubin, so use XP to make a ntfs out from free space?
[04:52] <Rubin> threefcata, yep
[04:52] <Rubin> threefcata, or you can create the partition, but dont put a filesystem on it
[04:52] <jetscreamer> Katanova: change stuff up to suit your box: http://linux.hfds.com/files/n-i.txt
[04:52] <threefcata> dward526, i don't have a disk in hand, and i did the same last time with another laptop, i guess it won't be hard..
[04:52] <Rubin> threefcata, but best to let xp do the whole thing its way
[04:52] <puff> threefcata: Be advised, from what I'm told, that's just barely big enough.  Also, winxp doesn't have an explicit swap partition, so you'll have to watch and make sure you always have at least 1gb free in the XP partition.
[04:52] <nomopofomo> Rubin, where can I find local.conf?
[04:52] <Rubin> nomopofomo, /etc/gdm
[04:53] <threefcata> puff, ok i will take note of that
[04:53] <Katanova> jetscremer: lol how :p
[04:54] <Katanova> do i edit a file on the disk or something?
[04:54] <dward526> threefcata:  Rubin is right, do not create an ntfs partion with linux, let xp do that
[04:54] <geekworx> hello people i'm running linux ubuntu 7.10 an i wants to install unrealircd can somebody help me how to install it? the irc server?
[04:54] <geekworx> !ircd

[04:54] <geekworx> !unrealircd
[04:54] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about unrealircd - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi

[04:55] <Rubin> geekworx, this isnt the proper place for that really
[04:55] <geekworx> damn :S
[04:55] <geekworx> Rubin: where to go to help me with that?
[04:55] <threefcata> Rubin, dward526 alright, thx guys, maybe getting a XP disk is the best solution
[04:55] <Starnestommy> geekworx: I think unreal has its own support network on irc.unrealircd.org.  Since it's not part of ubuntu, we can't support it
[04:55] <geekworx> ok
[04:55] <neopsyche> hi what do i type to get old mouse working on xorg?
[04:55] <Rubin> geekworx, check the unreal website for their irc channel maybe. or try searchirc.com
[04:55] <neopsyche> Previously i typed something like dev/ttyS0
[04:55] <geekworx> k
[04:55] <geekworx> thx
[04:55] <neopsyche> does anyone know the exact command?
[04:56] <Rubin> plus unreal sucks :)
[04:56] <Rubin> neopsyche, typed where?
[04:56] <oboy03> why do i always have this gcalc tool error after installing?
[04:56] <cdubya> I setup my wireless connection on this laptop (Compaq c751, Atheros AR5007) using instructions I found for using madwifi.....I can get around on my local network, but am unable to get out. Everytime I try to modify the nameserver, it defaults back to the original. Any ideas?
[04:56] <neopsyche> inxorg .conf
[04:56] <neopsyche> Rubin: in xorg
[04:57] <neopsyche> Rubin The configuration file
[04:57] <Rubin> cdubya, theres a setting for dhcpcd (in the conf file) to disable its overwriting of resolv.conf
[04:57] <cdubya> !madwifi
[04:57] <ubotu> Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs
[04:57] <olskolirc> i am having a problem with updating my repositories.  - when it gets to security, it fails, says repository is outdated
[04:57] <Rubin> neopsyche, xorg.conf?
[04:57] <olskolirc> what do I do?
[04:57] <Ryu010> im running gos and i cant get bcm43xx to install can someone help me out?
[04:58] <Rubin> olskolirc, check your repositories
[04:58] <olskolirc> what am i supposed to look for Rubin
[04:58] <olskolirc> they are still there
[04:58] <ere4si> olskolirc, which ubuntu are you running
[04:58] <Rubin> olskolirc, if you can get around on the commandline, look in /etc/apt/sources.list for a line or two with the wrong distribution name
[04:58] <puff> What's the "super" button on a thinkpad keyboard?
[04:58] <olskolirc> Gutsy
[04:58] <Ryu010> im running gos and i cant get bcm43xx to install can someone help me out?
[04:58] <olskolirc> ok
[04:58] <flexgrip> Can someone tell me - in separate x screen setup (nvidia-settings) can I also bind a separate keyboard and mouse to each session?
[04:59] <jetscreamer> i think mine says thinkpad, but no idea anyway
[04:59] <Rubin> puff, i think you have to configure super on any modern keyboard
[04:59] <Rubin> puff, ie, make it right alt or something
[04:59] <cr4z3d> puff, should be the windows key
[04:59] <Katanova> so how to boot into the live disk with an 8600GT?
[05:00] <Jack_Sparrow> Ryu010: Please dont repeat.. what is gos...  fwcutter works for normal ubuntu just fine
[05:00] <olskolirc> !pastebin

[05:00] <travisat> Katanova: hit F6 and delete quiet and splash
[05:00] <puff> cr4z3d: I don't see a windows key on my thinkpad keyboard :-)
[05:00] <nomopofomo> Every time I log out and log back in, my screen resolution resets to something much lower... :(
[05:00] <badkitty> puff .. windows key??
[05:00] <jhoon> g
[05:00] <Jack_Sparrow> Katanova: Most likely need to force vesa mode from F6
[05:00] <flexgrip> Can someone tell me - in separate x screen setup (nvidia-settings) can I also bind a separate keyboard and mouse to each session?
[05:01] <jhoon> hi i leaning inglish
[05:01] <Katanova> i did, it gets up to "Low gfx settings" so i press continue and it goes to console >>
[05:01] <Katanova> how to do that jack?
[05:01] <zcat[1]> does anyone sell a keyboard with a penguin key instead?
[05:01] <puff> badkitty: ask cr4z3d
[05:01] <Rubin> nomopofomo, how do you set it back?
[05:01] <demon_spork> Oh my, I just watched the whole userlist of this chan scroll through my terminal
[05:01] <demon_spork> lol
[05:01] <Jack_Sparrow> sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg   select vesa mode 1024
[05:02] <travisat> Katanova: hit F6 and delete quiet and splash
[05:02] <travisat> oops wrong window
[05:02] <olskolirc> here are my repositories in pastbin: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/55673/
[05:02] <olskolirc> what is wrong with my repositories
[05:02] <demon_spork> Whenever I try to do a graphical login, X just restarts after it starts to load the desktop. I don't know what to do
[05:03] <nomopofomo> Rubin, in screens and graphics.
[05:03] <Jack_Sparrow> Katanova: If you get to cli.. use the command I gave above
[05:03] <Rubin> nomopofomo, try logging out and pressing ctrl-alt-backspace
[05:03] <nomopofomo> BRB
[05:03] <KingJerk> whois kingjerk
[05:03] <nomopofomo> Rubin, what will that do btw?
[05:03] <Rubin> nomopofomo, restart the x server
[05:03] <threefcata> one more question, how to just make a partition but not put a file system on it?
[05:03] <Rubin> i think rising and brenny just tried it :/
[05:03] <threefcata> can i do it using gparted?
[05:04] <uchiha_furuno> :-*
[05:04] <Jack_Sparrow> KingJerk: Were you not already banned once today?
[05:04] <Rubin> threefcata, best to just leave empty space.
[05:04] <threefcata> ok
[05:04] <olskolirc> all of my security repositories won't update
[05:05] <Rubin> olskolirc, paste your /etc/apt/sources.list to pastebin.ca
[05:05] <Rubin> and what error do you get exactly?
[05:06] <nomopofomo> Rubin, it always resets to 1280x768.........
[05:06] <Rubin> nomopofomo, thats odd. try editing /etc/X11/xorg.conf directly
[05:06] <Rubin> nomopofomo, tbh i havnt really used the gui to do it
[05:07] <nomopofomo> Rubin, in fact, I replaced the entire contents of the conf file with the contents of a file from 4 days ago when things were working fine.
[05:07] <Jack_Sparrow> nomopofomo: Please check the v/h refresh rates on your monitor...  If they are wrong it will drop to the first res and v/h that work
[05:07] <Katanova> i guess noone can help with the 8600GT problem them :p oh well
[05:07] <Rubin> nomopofomo, yeah, what Jack_Sparrow said.
[05:07] <jetscreamer> i did already
[05:07] <mike_> hi all i have a drive that came out of a mac and now is a slave in my ubuntu machine, its name is Storage HD how would i go about formatting that, thanks alot
[05:07] <nomopofomo> Jack_Sparrow, the refresh rate is set to something ridiculous like 73hz. Is that the problem?
[05:07] <Katanova> yeah but u didnt tell me how to do that lol :p
[05:08] <jetscreamer> read the link
[05:08] <SupaFly> Hey are there bandwidth monitor tools for kubuntu? i just wana keep track of what i dl/ul each month, i need it pretty fast though :S
[05:08] <Katanova> i'm new to ubuntu
[05:08] <jetscreamer> http://linux.hfds.com/files/n-i.txt
[05:08] <Rubin> Katanova, i dunno about anyone else, but i have no clue what a 8600GT even is and you havnt actually asked a usefull question.
[05:08] <jetscreamer> !nvidia
[05:08] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[05:08] <Katanova> sure
[05:08] <Katanova> how to install drivers while its not even installed?
[05:08] <Jack_Sparrow> nomopofomo: Certainly could be, but check the other two rates as well horizsync and vert refresh
[05:08] <jetscreamer> you don't even have the card installed?
[05:09] <Katanova> i cant even boot into the live disk so :S
[05:09] <Katanova> no the os
[05:09] <betHa> hy
[05:09] <Jack_Sparrow> or the other way around..  getting way late here
[05:09] <Rubin> Katanova, it wont boot?
[05:09] <nomopofomo> Jack_Sparrow, where can I learn more about how to properly configure the conf file?
[05:09] <Katanova> nop,
[05:09] <Rubin> Katanova, try the alternate cd
[05:09] <jetscreamer> actually, yes you can, but it's tricky. use the text installer
[05:09] <Jack_Sparrow> !training
[05:09] <ubotu> A desktop course manual for Ubuntu 7.10 can be found at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Training
[05:09] <jetscreamer> 'alternate cd'
[05:09] <Katanova> i'm running the 8600gt in vista right now...
[05:09] <Katanova> where to download the alternate cd?
[05:09] <Rubin> what makes you think its the video cards fault?
[05:09] <jetscreamer> i'm running the 6600gt in debian myself
[05:10] <SupaFly> Hey are there bandwidth monitor tools for kubuntu? i just wana keep track of what i dl/ul each month, i need it pretty fast though :S c'mon there must be SOMETHING!
[05:10] <jetscreamer> i know it's the card, and not the cards fault
[05:10] <Katanova> no i think drivers...
[05:10] <jetscreamer> not supported
[05:10] <Katanova> where can i download this other cd?
[05:10] <jetscreamer> you can get the livecd to boot though, fyi
[05:10] <jetscreamer> !alternate cd
[05:10] <ubotu> The Alternate CD is a classical text-mode installation CD. It supports a wider range of hardware than the !LiveCD.  It can also be used as an upgrade CD. - See also !minimal
[05:10] <jetscreamer> gah
[05:10] <jetscreamer> how helpful
[05:10] <Jack_Sparrow> Katanova:  f6 at start or install and try a couple of hese before the --    xmodule=vesa, vga=normal,  xdrvr=vesa,
[05:10] <Katanova> lol good try
[05:11] <Katanova> ok i will try that
[05:11] <jetscreamer> Jack_Sparrow: setting xvrefresh and xhrefresh also helps.... and vga=normal sometimes too
[05:11] <jetscreamer> oh you said that one
[05:11] <Jack_Sparrow> Katanova: Your card is specifically noted as not supported in the nvidia wiki page
[05:11] <Jordan_U> Is there any way to get a replacement power supply?
[05:12] <Jordan_U> sorry, wrong channel
[05:12] <Katanova> so your saying there is noway for it to work?
[05:12] <jetscreamer> yes you go to microcenter and buy one
[05:12] <jetscreamer> Jordan_U: they're on sale at microcenter
[05:12] <tanlaan> hello everyone, I need help with my desktop. All of my icons *except for my CD/DVD icon which showed up because of I have a DVD in* have gone away, these icons were home and system icons. How can I get them back?
[05:12] <jetscreamer> kata: no you're being told it will work given the proper instructions
[05:12] <putnum> how can i use putty and view my linux desktop via the internet?
[05:12] <jetscreamer> Katanova: ^^
[05:13] <r3n0c> does somebody know what temp my cpu/mobo should run at since.... 47C for cpu and 42C for mobo seems way to high
[05:13] <putnum> ssh right?
[05:13] <Katanova> So i needa download the other disk then manualy install the drivers?
[05:13] <jetscreamer> Katanova: might be easier just to use the other cd
[05:13] <jetscreamer> basically
[05:13] <Jack_Sparrow> Katanova: HAve you READ the wiki page for nvidia
[05:13] <jetscreamer> heh
[05:13] <Rubin> putnum, for the graphics you need VNC with or without putty
[05:13] <jetscreamer> obvious answer
[05:13] <jumbers> Hey guys, I ordered a Dell Inspiron notebook last night with Ubuntu preinstalled on it. What is going to be the easiest way to transfer everything from my current notebook to the new one?
[05:13] <Katanova> the problem is, i cant find these other disks :p
[05:13] <putnum> ok
[05:13] <jetscreamer> !minimal
[05:13] <ubotu> The Minimal CD image is very small in size, and it downloads most packages from the Internet during installation, allowing you to select only those you want (the installer is like the one on the !Alternate CD). See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/MinimalCD
[05:13] <jetscreamer> there
[05:14] <Katanova> ty
[05:14] <DrDerek> I lost the game
[05:14] <Rubin> jumbers, best thing i can tell you is to buy 300 gig ide disk, and an external usb enclosure. you can use it to transfer your files AND as a backup in case something happens.
[05:14] <r3n0c> is 47C to high for my cpu temp? and 42C for my mobo?
[05:14] <r3n0c> (when just idle)
[05:14] <Rubin> jumbers, failing that, you can transfer your files to the new pc using scp
[05:14] <jetscreamer> Katanova: i thought you had ubuntu installed and just wanted to get the card to work... my link was for that
[05:14] <Rubin> jumbers, or winscp etc
[05:15] <Katanova> ok ic now ty :D
[05:15] <jetscreamer> Katanova: use it after :)
[05:15] <jumbers> Rubin: What folders should I be backing up then?
[05:15] <Katanova> :) will do
[05:15] <olskolirc> here Rubin :-( http://pastebin.ca/900813
[05:16] <putnum> is there a good howto for setting up vnc+putty to connect to ubuntu?
[05:16] <Rubin> olskolirc, see how some say fiesty and some say gutsy? you cant do that unlessy ou know what your diong.
[05:17] <demon_spork> how would I modify the Session list of programs without being able to get to the GUI?
[05:17] <olskolirc> I didn't do that it is just like that :-(
[05:17] <Rubin> olskolirc, basically, comment out line 33
[05:17] <olskolirc> k
[05:18] <do0zman> When i try to start ventrilo in wine the program stops responding how do i fix this?
[05:18] <genii> putnum: If you want to run X over putty look instead at FreeNX
[05:18] <genii> !freenx | putnum
[05:18] <ubotu> putnum: FreeNX is advanced remote desktop technology. For more information and install instructions, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FreeNX
[05:18] <Rubin> or Xming, or vnc
[05:18] <Jack_Sparrow> do0zman: Try #Winehq

[05:22] <SupaFly> Jack_Sparrow i have a problem with a package, im not exactly a very tech person and i dont actually know what the problem is but here it is http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/55675/
[05:22] <Rubin> SupaFly, it means you installed some package from (hopefully) some unknown source and it had a bug or problem and has broken your package management system
[05:22] <SupaFly> its the stuff in the 'terminal'
[05:23] <tanlaan> my home and system icons randomly disappeared from my desktop, I still have my DVD icon though. Any help?
[05:23] <evanotten> I am not sure anyone can offer any help, but any ideas would be great.  Has anyone used $hit talker v1.2 on windows?  It is a text-to-speach customizeable soundboard and its ideal for prank calls.  Does Linux have anything similar aside from Festival?
[05:23] <SupaFly> how do i fix the package management system?
[05:23] <Rubin> SupaFly, if you have some patience, theres some complicated commandline stuff that can maybe get you out of it
[05:23] <Jack_Sparrow> SupaFly: You do not need to be a techy person to understand how to be polite in a busy room, where you are asking for help
[05:23] <SupaFly> ok, ill give it ago

[05:51] <disc> how do I install a proprietary program if it comes in .tar.gz format so that it is a package?

[05:53] <dogpigeoncow> hi. i want to sample the alert sounds used in pidgin for a electronic sound track. where can i find those sounds?
[05:53] <disc> diegosouza, does it work with a program that doesn't have a makefile?
[05:53] <Jack_Sparrow> disc: You would need to build the whole thing, there is no magic wand that will allow you to remove it if it goes wrong.
[05:53] <diegosouza> disc, i think yes... take a look
[05:53] <disc> diegosouza, thank you

[06:02] <ATG> I'm getting an error with my package installer... it requests the CD mounted on /cdrom, which is annoying, but I do it. However, now that I need to do this, it doesn't work right... is there any way to not require the CD? This package (envy) shouldn't require the CD; but Ubuntu's been requesting the CD in the drive for random things lately
[06:03] <Dezine> I have compiz installed, all works well. I have the expo effect turned on but all it does is show all the desktops.. I want it to be more like mac's expo. Any clue how I can do that? You know, show all my open programs and not my desktops?
[06:03] <compwiz18> Dezine: Like Mac's Expose effect?
[06:03] <ATG> never mind; managed to fix it myself. Been working on this for days.. oh well; thanks anyway
[06:04] <Dezine> compwiz18, yeah, like it shows all your open programs.
[06:04] <Dezine> The one on here shows all the desktops
[06:04] <compwiz18> Dezine: yeah, you want the scale plugin I thinhk
[06:04] <Dezine> oh
[06:04] <Dezine> let me see

[06:08] <Dezine> I want to extract the audio from an AVI, how can I?
[06:09] <Dezine> or, to say it better, what program can do that?
[06:09] <jetscreamer> mencoder
[06:09] <jetscreamer> or a front end
[06:09] <jetscreamer> there are many
[06:09] <compwiz18> amin1: on my computer, /etc/X11/X is symlinked to /usr/bin/Xorg - is that the case on yours, and if it is, does /usr/bin/Xorg exist?
[06:09] <jetscreamer> there's also transcode
[06:10] <Dezine> Alright
[06:10] <jetscreamer> avidemux is easy to use
[06:10] <jetscreamer> easiest i've found

[06:11] <sn00zer> amin1, $startx
[06:11] <compwiz18> amin1: login, and sudo /etc/init.d/gdm start -- but you probably have a configuration error. What graphics card do you have?

[06:19] <litius> let me know it helps

[06:20] <ATG> So, is it just me, or is ca.archive.ubuntu.com down? and if so, is there something I can use instead?

[06:20] <v> ?

[06:21] <Ein_> I need small help
[06:21] <rey> ok thank tou men
[06:21] <compwiz18> !ask
[06:21] <ubotu> Please don't ask to ask a question, ask the question (all on ONE line, so others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely answer. :-)
[06:21] <Ein_> how I can delete folder from terminal? is it rmdir?
[06:21] <rey> ubotu:  ok thank tou men grasias por tus atenciones
[06:22] <compwiz18> Ein_: rm -r foldername
[06:22] <SaadS|AboutUs> litius, no it didnt help, i can only play sound in one app at a time.
[06:22] <litius> Qwel, will this help: http://www.goonda.org/wireless/aironet/
[06:22] <amin1> what should i do cuz my ubuntu is only ended up at a command console-thingy...how do i make it to the desktop ( this is my frirst time installing ubuntu)
[06:22] <litius> SaadS|AboutUs, start "the other" app from the terminal, try to play something there, paste the output
[06:22] <litius> (from the terminal)
[06:23] <Ein_> it seems works
[06:23] <Ein_> cool
[06:23] <Ein_> thanks bro
[06:23] <Qwel> I will check it out litius
[06:23] <Qwel> Thanks
[06:23] <litius> amin1, sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop
[06:23] <compwiz18> !alsa | SaadS|AboutUs
[06:24] <litius> Qwel, cool
[06:24] <ubotu> SaadS|AboutUs: If you're having problems with sound, first ensure ALSA is selected, by double clicking on the volume control, then File -> Change Device (ALSA Mixer). If that fails, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Sound - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting - http://alsa.opensrc.org/index.php?page=DmixPlugin - For playing audio files, see !Players and !MP3
[06:24] <litius> sorry  - Cisco is not my forte
[06:24] <amin1> what should i type? this? sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop
[06:24] <xavieran> welcome back bullgard4
[06:24] <litius> amin1, yes
[06:24] <litius> "sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop"
[06:24] <bullgard4> xavieran: Hello!
[06:24] <litius> and enter your root password
[06:25] <kahrytan> litius-> not root, admin password
[06:25] <compwiz18> sudo password
[06:25] <litius> this will pull GUI desktop (Gnome) to your beautiful Ubuntu
[06:25] <litius> kahrytan, yes
[06:25] <litius> sorry
[06:25] <kahrytan> !root
[06:25] <ubotu> Do not try to guess the root password, that is impossible. Instead, realise the truth... there is no root password. Then you will see that it is 'sudo' that grants you access and not the root password. Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo
[06:25] <litius> it can be admin if admin is in SUDOERs
[06:25] <ATG> Ok, ca.archive.ubuntu.com is down. Can someone point me in the right direction to using an alternative repo? I'm not asking for a walkthrough; just something to google would work. I can't seem to find anyresults..
[06:26] <litius> so "THAT OTHER" password, I think I should put it :)
[06:26] <xavieran> ATG: Search the forums?
[06:26] <ATG> xavieran: those are back up? thanks
[06:26] <SaadS|AboutUs> litius, it plays but gives a whole bunch of weird errors: ALSA lib confmisc.c:768:(parse_card) cannot find card 'I82801BAICH2'
[06:26] <kahrytan> litius->  the password you use to login.
[06:26] <SaadS|AboutUs> and more
[06:26] <_nix_> Hello everybody.. I don't know where's the laptop support channel but anyone know how to reset the bios in a laptop? I've forgot the supervisor password :-(
[06:26] <xavieran> ATG: Yeah,well,they work fine for me
[06:26] <kahrytan> amin1->  the password you use to login.
[06:26] <compwiz18> ATG:  synaptic -> settings -> repositories -> downoad from
[06:26] <ATG> compwiz18, thanks
[06:26] <litius> kahrytan, it is not me - it is "amin1"
[06:27] <kahrytan> _nix_->  it depends on the bios
[06:27] <litius> for me it actually is quite a different password
[06:27] <litius> ;)
[06:27] <kahrytan> _nix_->  Different bios have different master passwords.
[06:27] <_nix_> kahrytan: I think its a pheonix bios.. an acer notebook
[06:27] <litius> SaadS|AboutUs, hit us with the output
[06:27] <xavieran> ATG: Or go to System>Administration>Software Sources and a choice of mirrors should be available on the main page
[06:27] <compwiz18> !pastebin | SaadS|AboutUs
[06:27] <ubotu> SaadS|AboutUs: pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the #ubuntu channel topic)
[06:27] <kahrytan> _nix_->  then google  pheonix bios master passwords.
[06:28] <_nix_> kahrytan: oh so there's such a thing as a master password!! k maybe I'll google or pester the customer care.. thanks a lot :-)
[06:28] <Slart> bios have master passwords?? 0.o
[06:28] <kahrytan> _nix_->  yes there is
[06:28] <kahrytan> Slart->  You didnt know that?
[06:28] <compwiz18> Slart: kind seems like it defeats the point of putting a password on it, doesn't it?
[06:28] <xavieran> Slart:Can reset them though by simply pulling the battery out...the sys clock battery
[06:29] <litius> BIOS have "Super User" or "Master" passwords aside from the regular user password - yes.
[06:29] <Slart> kahrytan: nope..  You can browse my brain at http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi - Usage info: http://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuBots
[06:30] <compwiz18> SaadS|AboutUs, what do you get when you run "alsa-mixer"
[06:30] <litius> SaadS|AboutUs, what "command" do you run from shell (terminal)?
[06:30] <Neeku> hi all
[06:30] <Neeku> i want to install dia-gnome (download the package)
[06:31] <kahrytan> xavieran->  What!? no backup?
[06:31] <kahrytan> xavieran->  seems dumb to me
[06:31] <xavieran> Neeku: Try sudo apt-get install dia-gnome
[06:31] <Neeku> i recieve an error: dependency is not satisfiable: dia-common
[06:31] <Neeku> what can i do?
[06:31] <simi> hi, the screen resolution is not saved, it always defaults to  maximum , how can i make it saved?
[06:31] <compwiz18> Neeku: sudo apt-get update; sudo apt-get install dia-common
[06:31] <compwiz18> maybe?
[06:31] <xavieran> kahrytan, It works though!
[06:31] <Neeku> xavieran: it doesn't work since my internet connection is so weak these days
[06:31] <xavieran> Neeku: Try sudo apt-get install dia-gnome dia-common
[06:31] <vicsaurus> is there an xfce core type package like gnome-core?
[06:31] <xavieran> Ah...
[06:31] <Neeku> compwiz18: i can't install anything via terminal
[06:32] <compwiz18> Neeku: why not?
[06:32] <SaadS|AboutUs> litius, alsa-mixer returns: bash: alsa-mixer: command not found
[06:32] <compwiz18> vicsaurus: I think there is an xubuntu-desktop pacakge
[06:32] <SaadS|AboutUs> litius, and i used this to launch from terminal :~/Music/Black Sun Empire$ vlc 01\ -\ Arrakis.mp3
[06:32] <xavieran> Neeku, try sudo dpkg --configure -a
[06:32] <compwiz18> SaadS|AboutUs: sorry - I though alsa-mixer was installed with alsa
[06:32] <kahrytan> xavieran->  Which is easier, master password or opening a case and playing with jumpers/battery?
[06:33] <xavieran> Neeku, That should fix any probs with your apt
[06:33] <xavieran> kahrytan, If you are an evil government agent,playing with the batter...
[06:33] <vicsaurus> hmm, not sure if its just the minimal installation though, I'll check the site to see whats in it, thanks compwiz
[06:33] <xavieran> *battery
[06:34] <kahrytan> xavieran->  no such thing as evil gov agent.
[06:34] <litius> SaadS|AboutUs, type: sudo apt-get install alsa-mixer
[06:34] <feno> hello
[06:34] <xavieran> kahrytan, Not in america no...
[06:34] <compwiz18> vicsaurus: you can try install xfce4 too
[06:34] <kahrytan> xavieran->  making a joke
[06:34] <xavieran> Oh...xD
[06:34] <Neeku> compwiz18: i don't know, there were some cables torn in the ocean and since then i can't download anything from terminal
[06:34] <compwiz18> vicsaurus: xfdesktop4 too
[06:34] <Neeku> this is the error:
[06:34] <vicsaurus> lol

[06:34] <Neeku> E: Unable to fetch some archives, maybe run apt-get update or try with --fix-missing?
[06:35] <vicsaurus> so many
[06:35] <vicsaurus> thanks man
[06:35] <SaadS|AboutUs> litius, i also got E: Couldn't find package alsa-mixer
[06:35] <compwiz18> vicsaurus: sorry, I was just reading down the synaptic package list, and as I read, I kept finding better looking packages :D
[06:35] <canthony> anyone know why compiz kills all the windows for a few seconds when it starts
[06:36] <compwiz18> Neeku: you can try a different repository server Synaptic -> Settings -> Repositories -> Download From
[06:36] <kahrytan> canthony->  it replaces metacity
[06:36] <SaadS|AboutUs> litius, let me uncheck the cd source from software sources and try again
[06:36] <xavieran> canthony, Yes it replaces the window manager which you have running...
[06:36] <pier357> blank to all I have a problem with the installation of danger deep
[06:36] <pier357> offers this error to me....!Caught exception: Error opening directory '/usr/share/games/dangerdeep/objects/airplanes/'
[06:36] <canthony> yes
[06:36] <canthony> that it does
[06:36] <xavieran> canthony, and?
[06:36] <canthony> when you go back to metacity though
[06:36] <SaadS|AboutUs> litius, nope same error E: Couldn't find package alsa-mixer
[06:36] <kahrytan> canthony->  thats why you can use metacity --replace or compiz --replace to change between the two
[06:36] <canthony> it does not KILL it
[06:36] <canthony> it replaces it
[06:37] <xavieran> canthony, Metacity also replaces compiz
[06:37] <canthony> basically
[06:37] <demon_spork> When I try to mount a partition that I know to be ext3, it is the root filesystem of a different ubuntu install, mount cannot determine the fs type. I have tried fsck, and it can't make heads or tails of it either, but when I boot into windows, the partition is fully accessible via ext2 IFS. What can I do to fix this?
[06:37] <canthony> when i log into gnome...i dont want the gnome-panels and desktop icons to pop up then dissapear for 8 seconds
[06:37] <pier357> nobody can help me?
[06:37] <patogen> Is there some way I can see how long it takes for a software to run? It's a CLI-software and it encodes CD:s but doesn't tell me the total time for it to do this ... so I need it manually
[06:38] <compwiz18> patogen: time program-name
[06:38] <canthony> i am using the readahead to profile my login so it only takes about 12 seconds from login to fully loaded desktop
[06:38] <patogen> compwiz18: Nice, thank you :)
[06:38] <chrone> 00
[06:38] <litius> " sudo apt-get install gnome-alsamixer alsamixwergui"
[06:38] <canthony> i want it to be a smooth transition
[06:39] <litius> that will also give you GUI for alsamixer
[06:39] <Neeku> compwiz18:
[06:39] <Neeku> The repository might be no longer available or could not be contacted because of network problems. If available an older version of the failed index will be used. Otherwise the repository will be ignored. Check your network connection and the correct writing of the repository address in the preferences.
[06:39] <SaadS|AboutUs> litius, again got E: Couldn't find package alsamixwergui
[06:39] <xavieran> litius, Spelt alsamixergui wrong...
[06:39] <ibara>  /quit
[06:39] <xavieran> should be :
[06:39] <canthony> is ther a way to start compiz earlier in the login process?  i tried with gnome sessions but no luck...
[06:39] <litius> wow..
[06:39] <xavieran> sudo apt-get install alsamixergui gnome-alsamixer
[06:39] <compwiz18> SaadS|AboutUs: shot in the dark here: sudo killall esd
[06:39] <litius> let me think
[06:40] <Neeku> please help me :)
[06:40] <SaadS|AboutUs> ty  xavieran its doing something...
[06:40] <Neeku> :(
[06:40] <canthony> i am in hardy right now...but gutsy did it to, and feisty didnt?
[06:40] <xavieran> canthony, I do not use readahead and compiz starts as the window manager automatically without the replacingness...
[06:41] <xavieran> Yes Neeku
[06:41] <compwiz18> canthony: on one of the computers I have here, it does the flicker thing, on another, it doesn't
[06:41] <SaadS|AboutUs> compwiz18, will try your suggestions too but let me see what this one does
[06:41] <canthony> hmmm
[06:41] <Neeku> xavieran: how can i get access to this software, dia?
[06:41] <xavieran> Neeku, Just a second...
[06:41]  * xavieran is searching google
[06:41] <canthony> the readahead makes a huge difference
[06:41] <compwiz18> canthony: the only different I know of is that one is faster then the other...
[06:41] <Neeku> xavieran: ok, thanks :)
[06:41] <canthony> cut my login time in half
[06:43] <Neeku> xavieran: i got it from here: http://packages.ubuntu.com/cgi-bin/download.pl?arch=i386&file=pool%2Fmain%2Fd%2Fdia%2Fdia-gnome_0.96.1-0ubuntu1_i386.deb&md5sum=3fbc799f7db88df83d85c8223c4ad7ab&arch=i386&type=main
[06:43] <SaadS|AboutUs> litius,  ok it was installed and i ran gome-alsamixer now what
[06:43] <Neeku> xavieran: but while installing i recieve an error
[06:43] <xavieran> I get it!
[06:43] <compwiz18> Neeku: go back to that website and download dia-common, and install it first
[06:43] <SaadS|AboutUs> litius, says im using a Realtek card, i recall seeing an Intel HDA audio device
[06:43] <xavieran> Neeku, yes do what compwiz18 said
[06:44] <xavieran> Can you search for dia in synaptic and install it from there?
[06:44] <xavieran> Neeku,  Can you search for dia in synaptic and install it from there?
[06:45] <canthony> does anyone get a flicker or two between usplash and gdm??  its looks like change from x to a tty... like my graphics card is having issues.  again no problems with feisty
[06:45] <Neeku> compwiz18: xavieran: thanks, i'm downloading the package...
[06:45] <Neeku> xavieran: yes i tried chaniging the server
[06:45] <compwiz18> canthony: all my computers do that
[06:45] <pocketdrummer> What's a good program to convert audio file formats?
[06:45] <Neeku> xavieran: but it still has some errors
[06:45] <canthony> me too
[06:45] <canthony> haha and it anoyying
[06:45] <xavieran> Neeku, So you can't download anything from Synaptic either?
[06:45] <compwiz18> I hate it too
[06:45] <compwiz18> canthony: supposedly in Hardy they're going to work on it
[06:46] <canthony> im just trying to put a nice support package together so i can install to peoples boxes with all kids of presets and custom installations
[06:46] <canthony> support documents and remote desktop via freenx
[06:46] <Neeku> xavieran: how sould i do that?
[06:46] <canthony> i need it all ready for hardy
[06:46] <compwiz18> canthony: good idea if you do a lot of installing
[06:47] <compwiz18> Neeku: Synaptic -> Settings -> Repositories -> Download from... | change that and see if you can download then.
[06:47] <canthony> yeah, i plan on downloading the entire hardy repo to a external hd so i can update ppl's boxes in like 2 minutes
[06:47] <xavieran> Neeku, Go to System>Administration>Synaptic Package Manager and then click Search...search for dia
[06:47] <Neeku> compwiz18: i did the same thing, but it doesn't work
[06:47] <compwiz18> canthony: might be pretty big :)
[06:48] <compwiz18> Neeku: if I'm talking to you now, then you should be able to access some type of repository server somewhere...
[06:48] <SaadS|AboutUs> anyone have any guesses? how can i make my soundcard default to Intel HDA instead of Realtek
[06:48] <canthony> never kno if ill have an active connection :) , plus i dont want to wait at clients houses for a 200mb update on 512kb line
[06:48] <Neeku> compwiz18: but how?
[06:48] <xavieran> Is there any way to update all computers to hardy without having to download the updates each time?
[06:48] <canthony> yeah
[06:48] <canthony> you can create a local repo
[06:48] <compwiz18> xavieran: you can setup an update server/cache thingy and use that
[06:48] <Neeku> compwiz18: see the error: Could not download all repository indexes
[06:48] <canthony> like what i said with the external hd
[06:48] <compwiz18> yeah
[06:49] <canthony> doesnt have to have EVERY package
[06:49] <compwiz18> Neeku: that's ok, see if you can install dia anyway
[06:49] <demon_spork> how do I find out what is causing GDM to restart every time I log in?
[06:49] <xavieran> canthony, I once had to update gutsy with about 300mb with a 10 k connection...and it broke at the end of it!
[06:49] <canthony> ugh
[06:49] <canthony> dirty
[06:49] <xavieran> Yep
[06:49] <achandrashekar> hello is anyone with familiar with an ltsp standalone setup?
[06:50] <xavieran> I was pretty P***ed off...
[06:50] <Dezine> is the official ubuntu site down?
[06:50] <litius> SaadS|AboutUs, thinking..
[06:50] <litius> are you in the "audio" group?
[06:50] <xavieran> Neeku, Have you tried synaptic yet?
[06:51] <litius> brainstorming
[06:51]  * SaadS|AboutUs checking
[06:51] <litius> do "groups"
[06:51] <xavieran> SaadS|AboutUs, if not do sudo usermod -aG audio
[06:51] <xavieran> SaadS|AboutUs, if not do sudo usermod -aG audio username
[06:51] <Neeku> xavieran: yes, i did, it can't connect well!
[06:51] <xavieran> Neeku, How are you downloading dia?
[06:51] <xavieran> Neeku, From Firefox?
[06:52] <canthony> i probly dont need the whole repo
[06:52] <litius> also check what groups vlc is in
[06:52] <Neeku> i'm downloading it manual now, yes from fx
[06:52] <zubuntu> i am having an issue with NetworkManager. in order to use irc at my university, I have to ssh into a shell account and connect through that tunnel, after this has been running for a while, my processor hits about 80% and even when i close the connection the processor usage stays high is there a way i can restart the network manager?
[06:52] <xavieran> Neeku, Ok...
[06:52] <canthony> but i dont know how else to get the packages i need for any arbitrary install
[06:52] <Neeku> uh! at last!
[06:52] <litius> btw, can you play several things with a different player, not VLC?
[06:52] <Neeku> xavieran: compwiz18: thanks a lot :)
[06:52] <litius> like mplayer, etc..
[06:52] <xavieran> Neeku, Did it install?
[06:53] <adisini> somebody. please help me. i can't copy the file from my cd rom or other read only media. can u tell me how to fix it?
[06:53] <demon_spork> how do I find out what is causing GDM to restart every time I log in?
[06:53] <canthony> adisini elaborate a bit
[06:53] <blundar> anyone particularly familiar with libata and issues with serverworks?
[06:53] <sexcopter> adisini: can you see files on the cdrom at all?
[06:53] <xavieran> zubuntu, Try doing sudo killall nm-applet
[06:54] <blundar> I *had* Redhat Enterprise running somewhat smoothly
[06:54] <canthony> demon_spork how far does it get before gdm starts again
[06:54] <blundar> I can't even get ubuntu Gutsy to boot the kernel
[06:54] <adisini> sexcopter: yup
[06:54] <demon_spork> shows the desktop, loads kiba dock, the icons, panel and bam, restart, canthony
[06:54] <wyrmul> I am running from the live CD, and I wish to some how backup my system.  I have three partitions, /boot, /, and /home.  I would like to bundle away the / partition so that in case of failure to restore the system I would have to but reformat my / partition and restore the backup.  According to the live CD's add/remove... Archive manager is installed but I cannot seem to find it. Any suggestions?
[06:54] <xavieran> Or gksu gnome-system-monitor and try to find nm-applet
[06:54] <canthony> wow
[06:54] <xavieran> Or network-manager...
[06:54] <sexcopter> adisini: sounds odd, so what's stopping you? do you get an error message?
[06:54] <compwiz18> wyrmul: hit alt+f2 and type file-roller in the box
[06:55] <SaadS|AboutUs> litius, i use Totem by default and tried out vlc, that command didnt help. Not that i want to listen to two streams at the same time, but i need this to have skype working in the background while im playing music.
[06:55] <canthony> adisini can you cp files from terminal
[06:55] <xavieran> wyrmul, Applications>Accessories>Archive Manager
[06:55] <Neeku> xavieran: yes
[06:55] <wyrmul> ah, and here I was trying "fileroller"  Many thanks sirrah!
[06:55] <Neeku> xavieran: but there's a problem
[06:55] <xavieran> Neeku, Awesome!
[06:55] <pocketdrummer> How would I go about downloading the mp3 encoder? And is there a better audio converter than Sound Converter?
[06:55] <Neeku> xavieran: yeah :)
[06:55] <xavieran> Neeku, Yeah?
[06:55] <adisini> sexcopter & canthony: wait a minute
[06:56] <demon_spork> canthony, do you have any ideas?
[06:56] <litius> SaadS|AboutUs, ok.. but can you play TWO totem sessions?
[06:56] <litius> or two VLC sessions
[06:56] <litius> at the same time?
[06:56] <demon_spork> two vlc = yes
[06:56] <canthony> hmm demon one sec
[06:56] <vicsaurus> compwiz18: thanks for your help, xfce works great
[06:56] <demon_spork> don't ever highlight a whole folder of music and click "play with vlc"
[06:56] <compwiz18> vicsaurus: glad to hear it :)
[06:57] <demon_spork> becuase it doesn't add to a playlist like most media players
[06:57] <Neeku> xavieran: in MS Visio or Rational Rose, while drawing the connections, if two lines are pasing each other, it automatically reorders the lines so that they don't overlap on each other, doesn't dia do this?
[06:57] <demon_spork> it just upens a vlc for each one
[06:57] <blundar> anyone know how to troubleshoot libata / IDE drivers?
[06:57] <Neeku> xavieran: actually it's not doing it, i mean is there a way to do such a thing?
[06:57] <zubuntu> xavieran, no dice, applet is gone (how do i get it back?) and top still says NetworkManager is, well now it is up to 95%
[06:57] <canthony> is there no plugin for that vlc directory?
[06:57] <xavieran> Neeku, I am sorry...I don't use dia or MS Visio or the like...
[06:57] <blundar> they worked fine under redhat enterprise with a 2.4 kernel
[06:57] <litius> demon_spork, that was to a question to "SaadS|AboutUs" ;)
[06:57] <litius> but I glad you can ;)
[06:57] <canthony> i used to have a custom command to open directory with xmms
[06:57] <SaadS|AboutUs> litius, how can i run two sessions of totem?
[06:57] <Neeku> xavieran: uhum... thanks a lot anyway. :)
[06:58] <xavieran> zubuntu, Kill NetworkManager
[06:58] <SHMO> anyone know if i can get multiple monitors running on hoary hedgehog?
[06:58] <blundar> with Gutsy and 2.6.22... I get ata2: soft resetting port
[06:58] <Neeku> is there anyone who has used Dia?
[06:58] <zubuntu> ok
[06:58] <xavieran> Neeku, Glad I could help! :)
[06:58] <blundar> Neeku, I've used dia a lot
[06:58] <xavieran> Neeku, Try the forums...
[06:58] <litius> totem my.mp3 & [Enter]
[06:58] <litius> totem your.mp3 & [Enter]
[06:58] <xavieran> zubuntu, killall networkmanager...
[06:58] <litius> or just fire up two different shells
[06:58] <compwiz18> zubuntu: also, killall nm-applet
[06:58] <litius> and run totem in both
[06:59] <xavieran> zubuntu, to get it back do killall gnome-panel
[06:59] <demon_spork> canthony, you can probably do it at a command, but it can be done from within vlc, I tried highlighting and playing in vlc once, and I almost froze my computer because I had so many vlc copies open, lol
[06:59] <blundar> ata2.00: exception Emask 0x0 Sact 0x0 Serr 0x0 action 0x2 frozen
[06:59] <canthony> hha
[06:59] <SHMO> oh i see that hoary hedgehog is unsupported
[06:59] <Neeku> blundar: while drawing a diagram (use-case diagram for example), how can i use the connectors in a way that they don't overlap eachother? (in MS visio it used to reorder them automatically to avoid this)
[06:59] <blundar> anyone know where to go to troubleshoot this ata issue?
[06:59] <SHMO> disregard last question
[06:59] <compwiz18> SHMO: you may wish to upgrade ;)
[06:59] <blundar> Neeku: I don't know
[06:59] <SHMO> but i am having trouble downloading the new ubuntu
[06:59] <adisini> sexcopter & canthony: wupz. i don't know why but now i can copy the file. anyway, thanks for help me :)
[07:00] <compwiz18> SHMO: are you trying to download the CD?
[07:00] <canthony> demon im not really sure how to look at the currect processes, i like bootchart becasue it visually shows you what was running
[07:00] <SHMO> i start downloading it but it stops about 96% way through
[07:00] <xavieran> De do do do! De da da da!
[07:00] <sexcopter> adisini: lol, ok, you're welcome :)
[07:00] <SHMO> yes
[07:00] <SaadS|AboutUs> nope, it either plays one or the other
[07:00] <canthony> you have to modify bootchart to make it run past gdm but its not to hard
[07:00] <compwiz18> SHMO: try using the .torrent to download it
[07:00] <SHMO> compwiz18, that's not the problem
[07:01] <xavieran> zubuntu, Or try /etc/init.d/networking restart
[07:01]  * adisini laughs
[07:01] <SHMO> compwiz18 the video card on my dell laptop uses system memory for video ram and i only have ~650mb free
[07:01] <canthony> doesnt gdm starting mean the xsession died
[07:01] <SHMO> the distro is ~700mb
[07:01] <demon_spork> does anyone know how to edit the programs marked for startup in the "Sessions" menu
[07:01] <SHMO> is there a way i can burn a cd directly from the ftp site?
[07:01] <demon_spork> canthony, one possible culprit is akamaru
[07:01] <xavieran> SHMO...you would still have to download it...
[07:01] <demon_spork> because it does seem to coincide with the time it loads
[07:01] <canthony> physics engine for kiba?
[07:01] <demon_spork> yeah
[07:01] <griffi1> hi everybody
[07:02] <xavieran> hi griffi1
[07:02] <canthony> hmm
[07:02] <SHMO> griffil u l33t mofo
[07:02] <compwiz18> SHMO: see if you can lower the amount of memory in the bios?
[07:02] <canthony> did you build that yourself
[07:02] <litius> SaadS|AboutUs, I have another idea for you after you "parallel" test.
[07:02] <canthony> i used to use kiba
[07:02] <litius> Go to System > Preferences > Sounds and uncheck the box that says "Enable software sound mixing."
[07:02] <SHMO> the memory setting is via ubuntu but i don't know how to change it
[07:02] <griffi1> When I try to run autgone, I get : Please add the files codeset.m4 gettext.m4 glibc21.m4 iconv.m4 isc-posix.m4 lcmessage.m4 progtest.m4 from the /aclocal directory to your autoconf ...
[07:02] <demon_spork> I had it enabled and working fairly glitch free, but then I made a clean gutsy install and one of the times I booted back into feisty, this happened
[07:03] <griffi1> does anyone had this issue ?
[07:03] <compwiz18> SHMO: are you using a livecd or something?
[07:03] <sn00zer> has anyone else had the bcm43xx driver injection capability broken by recent updates?
[07:03] <SHMO> compwiz18, yes
[07:03] <demon_spork> canthony I can't figure out how to stop kiba from loading on startup
[07:03] <demon_spork> login*
[07:03] <canthony> are you using gnome
[07:03] <canthony> right
[07:03] <compwiz18> SHMO: you don't have any spare 1gb flash drives laying around do you?
[07:03] <demon_spork> yeah
[07:03] <canthony> if you didnt hardcode the booting of the program
[07:03] <SHMO> griffil corrupted my windows partition so i have to use this
[07:04] <SaadS|AboutUs> litius, did the uncheck and issued "totem 02\ -\ Don\'t\ You.mp3 & vlc 05\ -\ Driving\ Insane.mp3" result: doesnt play in both.
[07:04] <canthony> you should be able to delete the session file
[07:04] <demon_spork> it is in the "Session" menu
[07:04] <demon_spork> where is that at?
[07:04] <xavieran> SHMO what is wrong with the windows one?
[07:04] <canthony> ~/.gnome2/cache
[07:04] <SHMO> compwiz18, perhaps
[07:04] <canthony> i *think*
[07:04] <SHMO> i'll have a look
[07:04] <canthony> or session i mean
[07:04] <canthony> not cache
[07:04] <SHMO> xavieran, griffil installed a rootkit
[07:04]  * demon_spork switches to tty2 to go browsing
[07:04] <canthony> i know its in your home folder becaseu i had this issue once too
[07:05] <cybermad> where is http://www.ubuntu-nl.org/source-o-matic/  ?
[07:05] <xavieran> SHMO, Oh...:(
[07:05] <compwiz18> !source-o-matic
[07:05] <ubotu> source-o-matic is not available anymore, please use Software Sources (in your Applications / K menu) to configure your repositories. Do NOT enable "Proposed updates" unless you're willing to test possibly seriously flawed packages.
[07:05] <compwiz18> cybermad: see above :)
[07:05] <SHMO> i seriously don't know why you're stalking me griffi1
[07:05] <cybermad> thanks
[07:05] <xavieran> !FloodBot3
[07:06] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about floodbot3 - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[07:06] <xavieran> Ok...thanks ubotu
[07:07] <zubuntu> xavieran, that worked in the sense that my proc use is back to normal my question now is if this is a known or common issue, or if i should file a bug report
[07:07] <Netkiller> Hello
[07:07] <zubuntu> hello
[07:07] <canthony> aloha
[07:07] <compwiz18> !hi
[07:07] <ubotu> Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu!
[07:07] <demon_spork> !hello | Netkiller
[07:07] <Netkiller> I need a bit of help lowering my resolution for Ubuntu 7.10
[07:07] <ubotu> Netkiller: please see above
[07:07] <demon_spork> gar
[07:07] <canthony> demon did you find it
[07:07] <demon_spork> no
[07:08] <xavieran> zubuntu, Try posting on the forums...they probably know more than I...I do not know if it is a common issue,as I have never sshed into anything...
[07:08] <Netkiller> I have a widescreen lcd which runs at a maximum of 1440*900
[07:08] <demon_spork> ls is a slow way to search
[07:08] <zubuntu> thanks
[07:08] <zubuntu> later
[07:08] <Netkiller> which I told Ubuntu to run at but the screen says the signal input is to large
[07:08] <demon_spork> I am ignorant of the correct usage of find or locate to accomplish my goals
[07:08] <xavieran> ls | grep searchterm isn't...
[07:09] <SHMO> thanks for the help
[07:09] <Netkiller> I am currently looking at the Xorg.conf if I put it up on paste bin would anyone beable to look and tell me what to change?
[07:09] <Netkiller> !pastebin
[07:09] <ubotu> pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the #ubuntu channel topic)
[07:10] <SaadS|AboutUs> litius, perhaps we can uninstall all sound and config and then reinstall?
[07:10] <canthony> demon ill be right back
[07:10] <canthony> im going to make a session then find the thing
[07:10] <ere4si> sudo updatedb && locate "file" demon_spork
[07:10] <SaadS|AboutUs> but im gonna need some serious help with that
[07:10] <puff> Anybody familiar with the ATI proprietary drivers?
[07:10] <Netkiller> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/55687/
[07:10] <compwiz18> puff: maybe?
[07:11] <litius> SaadS|AboutUs, another thing (before killing and giving birth): check your skype settings (or VLC settings) and see that the sound is set to use ALSA (or "/dev/mixer")
[07:11] <demon_spork> xavierman, I need to find the word session in my home directory, in a hidden file, and I have no idea where, do you know how I could find that?
[07:11] <compwiz18> demon_spork: use grep
[07:11] <Netkiller> anyone?
[07:11] <compwiz18> demon_spork: I think it is grep * session
[07:11] <xavieran> Ah...
[07:11] <xavieran> Yes
[07:12] <compwiz18> oops, backwards: demon_spork grep session *
[07:12] <xavieran> ls *.* | grep searchterm
[07:12] <Netkiller> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/55687/    what do I change to get to resolution 1280*768?
[07:12] <compwiz18> xavieran: but then you still don't know what file the word is in, do you :P?
[07:12] <xavieran> No...
[07:12] <xavieran> Hmm...
[07:12] <xavieran> find can do this...
[07:13] <demon_spork> compwiz18, how do I make grep recursive to search inside directories as well?
[07:13] <xavieran> I red it in my Red Hat Linux Unleashed a while back...but that book is 300km away...:(
[07:13] <compwiz18> demon_spork: grep -R session * I think
[07:13] <xavieran> *read
[07:13] <Netkiller> xavieran
[07:13] <sn00zer> Netkiller, i think you need to change the modes in the screen section but i'm not positive that will do it
[07:13] <xavieran> man grep
[07:13] <xavieran> Yes Neeku
[07:13] <xavieran> Yes Netkiller
[07:14] <Netkiller> sn00zer: how do I do that?
[07:14] <Netkiller> xavieran: do you know how to change screen resolution in the xorg.conf file?
[07:14] <sn00zer> Netkiller, edit the xorg.conf file with your favorite text editor
[07:14] <Netkiller> sn00zer I am lol. I just don't know what to change
[07:14] <xavieran> Netkiller, First back the file up...
[07:15] <Netkiller> and the refresh rate is at 60 which is what my screen uses.
[07:15] <Netkiller> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/55687/
[07:15] <sn00zer> Netkiller, scroll down to the section "screen"
[07:15] <xavieran> Netkiller, And the built in resolution changing tool doesn't work?
[07:15] <Netkiller> ok
[07:16] <SHMO> i'm looking for my usb card reader
[07:16] <Netkiller> how do I use that?
[07:16] <SHMO> how do i find it in hoary hedgehog (5.04)?
[07:16] <demon_spork> SHMO, does it have a card in it?
[07:16] <SHMO> yes
[07:16] <demon_spork> usually it should automount
[07:16] <demon_spork> when you plug it in
[07:16] <canthony> well
[07:16] <canthony> i am using hardy
[07:16] <xavieran> Netkiller, System>Preferences>Screen Resolution
[07:16] <SHMO> well the light on the card reader is on
[07:16] <SHMO> so it knows it's there
[07:16] <canthony> but mine was in the .gnome2 folder
[07:17] <Netkiller> xavieran: How can I do that when I can't see anything?
[07:17] <SHMO> where abouts would it show up? on the desktop?
[07:17] <patogen> Is there some easy way to make the cursor "disappear" when I haven't used it for a while and that it reapperas when I move then mouse?
[07:17] <canthony> i thought it had a dedicated folder
[07:17] <xavieran> Netkiller, Oh...
[07:17] <hades> Hello All, I have tried to add dual monitors to my laptop, and now it wont boot up.. keeps hanging at running local boot scripts
[07:17] <hades> any idea how to fix this?
[07:17] <puff> compwiz18: I'm working on uninstalling the ATI drivers and going back to the ubuntu restricted ATI drivers
[07:17] <compwiz18> puff: good luck
[07:17] <puff> compwiz18: Thanks :-)
[07:17] <compwiz18> puff: sorry, I've tried to do that and failed.. :(
[07:18] <puff> compwiz18: Really?  What'd you end up doing?
[07:18] <canthony> hades did ya back up your xorg
[07:18] <compwiz18> puff: going back to the latest drivers - they're the only ones I could get to work
[07:18] <Hadeshorn> canthony: nope.. I know i should have done
[07:18] <sn00zer> Netkiller, under the subsection "display" look for the Modes line, take out the 1440x900 and 1280x800 assuming you aren't going to try to get that high of a resolution
[07:18] <xavieran> Netkiller, Has the screen worked before?
[07:18] <Hadeshorn> canthony: I can get into recovery mode and dont know how to unstuff this
[07:18] <puff> compwiz18: Latest as in the latest in ubuntu's apt servers or the latest from ati's site?
[07:18] <canthony> i would re run the dpkg-reconfigure on xorg
[07:18] <canthony> then
[07:19] <canthony> use xrandr to add dual monitor if you can
[07:19] <compwiz18> puff: latest as in from ati's site
[07:19] <compwiz18> puff: the ubuntu ones didn't want to play
[07:19] <puff> compwiz18: Ah, I'm trying the drivers from ATI's site right now, but the performance sucks and is glitchy to boot.
[07:19] <SlimG> Is there a way of telling if a package is a metapackage?
[07:19] <Hadeshorn> canthony how do i dpkg-reconfigure for xorg?
[07:19] <compwiz18> puff: tell me about it. what card do you hae?
[07:19] <puff> compwiz18: I'm on a thinkpad t43p with ATI firegl v3200.
[07:19] <canthony> if you can get to a terminal
[07:20] <canthony> vim your current xorg.conf
[07:20] <canthony> or gedit
[07:20] <griffi1> dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[07:20] <canthony> or whatever text editor you use
[07:20] <xavieran> or nano
[07:20] <canthony> ok there ya go
[07:20] <SHMO> anyone?
[07:20] <clearzen> Okay, I had compiz working fine on this machine until I installed updates and now the system refuses to load the glx module. I looked through Xorg.0.log and came up with this error dlopen: /usr/lib/libGLcore.so.1: undefined symbol: _nv000042g can anyone help me?
[07:20] <canthony> the command is in your xorg.conf in the top credits in case you ever need it again
[07:20] <demon_spork> joe is the way to go
[07:20] <compwiz18> puff: I've got a compaq v2000 with a 200m
[07:20] <compwiz18> puff: although I have to say, the drivers work much better on faster computers, I find
[07:21] <demon_spork> as does everything else
[07:21] <SHMO> i'm looking in /dev
[07:21] <SHMO> can't find anything there
[07:21] <puff> compwiz18: The ubuntu gutsy restricve worked great, but suspend didn't work.  Somebody suggested trying the ATI from-the-ati-site drivers but those are turning to be worse... unless I'm missing some kind of config change or something.
[07:21] <patogen> Is there some easy way to make the cursor "disappear" when I haven't used it for a while and that it reapperas when I move then mouse?
[07:21] <Hadeshorn> ok
[07:21] <Hadeshorn> trying
[07:21] <canthony> i have compiz running 1280x1024 on a 32mb nvidia desktop... an old comp i bought from the college for $100
[07:21] <Hadeshorn> where is the location of the boot log?
[07:21] <SlimG> Is there a way of telling if a package is a metapackage? (is language-pack-no a metapackage?)
[07:22] <canthony> i had to edit the compiz wrapper script to allow the low memory
[07:22] <SHMO> patogen, maybe you'll have to get used to moving the mouse to the right side of the screen to make it disappear
[07:22] <clearzen> What would stop the glx module from loading?
[07:22] <demon_spork> lol
[07:22] <demon_spork> nice canthony
[07:22] <compwiz18> puff: that's about what I found -- I never knew why the latest were so much slower
[07:22] <puff> compwiz18: I'm about ready to give up on them (unless you have suggestions).  I'm trying to figure out just how to revert... thinking maybe "apt-get remove" on each of the custom ATI driver packages.
[07:22] <puff> compwiz18: As a start.
[07:22] <bullgard4> SlimG: Look its name up in Synaptic. Then read its descriptive text. This will often tell if it is a meta package.
[07:22] <canthony> it runs really well, except when to many windows are open then i get black boxes till i close some ;)
[07:23] <compwiz18> puff: that's what I'd suggest... again, good luck :)
[07:23] <patogen> SHMO: Well maybe, but if I can get it work like I wish I would rather try that :)
[07:23] <demon_spork> I am running c-f at 1680x1050 on a geforce 8800GTS 320MB 0_o
[07:23] <canthony> nice
[07:23] <demon_spork> well, when I am booted into a GUI
[07:23] <SHMO> patogen, maybe it doesn't exist, and you'll have to write a python script to do it
[07:23] <canthony> i was so happy not to long ago i finally got my tvout and vga out working on my t43 laptop
[07:24] <canthony> i didnt know anything about xrandr until then
[07:24] <demon_spork> right now I am stuck at command line until my grep search of the home directory is complete
[07:24] <canthony> it was eeeeasy after that
[07:24] <z0mbie> hi
[07:24] <xavieran> patogen, Try posting to the forums too...more people will see your question there...
[07:24] <patogen> SHMO: Maybe then I won't bother :) It's not *that* important, but I find an easy solution I'll do it :)
[07:24] <canthony> Hadeshorn hows it goin
[07:24] <canthony> or did your x puke
[07:25] <patogen> xavieran: Yeah I guess I can try that :)
[07:25] <SHMO> patogen, it would still be worthwhile posting in a forum so other people will find the same solution useful
[07:25] <bodean> server irc.tribalwar.com
[07:25] <sui> sup
[07:26] <SHMO> where do i find my memory card? in /dev?
[07:26] <xavieran> SHMO ya
[07:26] <canthony> there has to be a way to stop the flickering between usplash and gdm
[07:26] <SHMO> xavieran, where abouts
[07:26] <j_humphrey> does anyone know where xmms keeps its playlist file?
[07:26] <sui> what kiinda memory card?

[07:26] <xavieran> ls /dev and post the output to pastebin
[07:26] <demon_spork> canthony, what if you skip the usplash?
[07:27] <sui> woulden't it be in /media
[07:27] <clearzen> how do I report a bug?
[07:27] <SHMO> media is empty
[07:27] <canthony> hmm i guess i havent done that
[07:27] <demon_spork> lol
[07:27] <canthony> really... i have been looking for a good usplash replacemtn
[07:27] <clearzen> !bug report
[07:27] <xavieran> Bye every one!
[07:27] <canthony> cant get splashy going and i keep reading its not developed anymore
[07:27] <canthony> peace out man
[07:28] <demon_spork> like a random episode of the Simpsons?
[07:28] <tsurko> hello
[07:28] <demon_spork> !hi | tsurko
[07:28] <ubotu> tsurko: Hi!  AHAH
[07:28] <speedhunt3r> is there a way to have certain screenlets load at startup? I always have to go to /usr/share/screenlets-manager/screenlets-manager.py to run the application.
[07:28] <sui> hey SHMO
[07:29] <SHMO> yes
[07:29] <tsurko> is the 64bit version of ubuntu aimed to amd64 users only? I mean should I install 64bit version on dual core intel CPU?
[07:29] <j_humphrey> does anyone know where xmms keeps its playlist file?
[07:29] <sui> it should be in /dev listed as one of ur harddirves
[07:29] <speedhunt3r> tsurko, yeah it works for all 64bit pcs intel or amd
[07:29] <sui> like hda1
[07:29] <canthony> j_humphrey can you do a search on the name
[07:29] <SHMO> ok i'll have a look sui
[07:29] <sui> etc..
[07:29] <tsurko> speedhunt3r, thank you
[07:29] <sui> probably the last one
[07:29] <demon_spork> canthony, I won, with the command <grep -r kiba-dock .*> lol
[07:30] <SHMO> says there
[07:30] <j_humphrey> canthony, i dont what its even called
[07:30] <SHMO> says there'll inaccessable
[07:30] <Slart> tsurko: yes.. it's both intel and amd.. I think they kept the amd-name as credit to amd for being first with an 64bit-processor that ran normal code or something
[07:30] <tsurko> super:)\
[07:30] <sui> r you browseing them with in the nautilus window?
[07:30] <canthony> nice
[07:30] <demon_spork> .config/autostart/kiba-dock.desktop
[07:31] <canthony> does that search the file themselves?
[07:31] <demon_spork> yeah
[07:31] <canthony> ahh nevermind
[07:31] <canthony> i didnt know you could do that
[07:31] <demon_spork> it only took 30 sec
[07:32] <canthony> i always...   cat WHATEVER > grep ...
[07:32] <sui> SHMO if you are useing nautilus... try useing the command "gksu nautilus" in the terminal
[07:32] <demon_spork> I bet if we looked at the source code for locate and find we would see a lot of cat a grep
[07:32] <demon_spork> lol
[07:32] <demon_spork> or their equivalent
[07:32] <Hadeshorn> ok, my computer is now getting to the Gnome login screen, but the screen is black.. any ideas?
[07:33] <demon_spork> a friend of mine decided he wanted to be able to cat and grep on his window server, so he compiled grep for windows
[07:33] <canthony> haha nice
[07:33] <canthony> ill never go back to winblows
[07:33] <canthony> she is a dirty whore
[07:33] <canthony> like cartmans mom
[07:33] <demon_spork> !vista

[07:34]  * Hadeshorn agrees with Canthony
[07:34] <Slart> canthony: no need for name calling.. it's just an operating system..
[07:34] <canthony> your right
[07:34] <sui> dude windows is awsome
[07:34] <Hadeshorn> So yes, i have a black gnome login screen... any ideas?
[07:34] <canthony> not professional ;O
[07:34]  * demon_spork is blinded by sui's comment
[07:34] <SHMO> sui do you know the default root password on a live cd?

[07:34] <bossjock77> I guess I shouldn't introduce myself by saying I like Vista, huh?
[07:34] <clearzen> sui: That is blatant flamebait
[07:35] <demon_spork> Hadeshorn, try hitting alt+ctrl+backspace once, see what happens
[07:35] <canthony> can you see anything Hadeshorn
[07:35] <sui> hade tpick the other ubuntu load thing you know (safe mode)
[07:35] <sui> lol
[07:35] <Slart> SHMO: there isn't a root password by default
[07:35] <Slart> !sudo | SHMO
[07:35] <ubotu> SHMO: sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for more information.
[07:35] <Hadeshorn> canthony, nothing
[07:35] <Slart> !root | SHMO
[07:35] <ubotu> SHMO: Do not try to guess the root password, that is impossible. Instead, realise the truth... there is no root password. Then you will see that it is 'sudo' that grants you access and not the root password. Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo
[07:35] <canthony> how do you know its gdm
[07:35] <canthony> the sound
[07:35] <sui> whats wrong with windows clearzen?
[07:35] <Hadeshorn> because it makes the sound
[07:35] <xmanxxxx> hi
[07:35] <speedhunt3r> is there a way to have certain screenlets load at startup? I always have to go to /usr/share/screenlets-manager/screenlets-manager.py to run the application.
[07:35] <Hadeshorn> i did ctrl, alt, backspace and just makes the login sound again
[07:35] <xmanxxxx> i i try to install vmware
[07:35] <canthony> can you punch in your name and pass
[07:36] <SHMO> it still doesn't like '' as pasword
[07:36] <canthony> just for grins
[07:36] <Hadeshorn> i ran the dkpg-configure thing.. and changed the displays and stuff
[07:36] <Slart> speedhunt3r: isn't there a checkbox in the manager for auto-startup ? I have that
[07:36] <xmanxxxx> i install the patch, but it dont accept any serial
[07:36] <xmanxxxx> somebody know whats happening
[07:36] <xmanxxxx> ?
[07:36] <canthony> how can i change my name on here via command
[07:36] <Slart> SHMO: I didn't say the password was "".. there isn't one

[07:39] <Goundy> Salut
[07:39] <Goundy> Hello* sorry
[07:39] <Goundy> I got an old ubuntu live-CD but there's no install icone on the desktop.
[07:39] <Slart> norty: grep is one way... give me a minute and I'll come up with something
[07:39] <Goundy> How to get it ?
[07:39] <SHMO> 5.04 (hoary hedgehog) i'm trying to burn the latest distro to cd but i can't hold it in the live cd's memory
[07:39] <dondong> demon_spork: Dank!
[07:39] <norty> thanks
[07:39] <Hadeshorn> where is the boot log file?
[07:39] <xmanxxxx> is possible install vmware in ubuntu or isnt
[07:39] <Hadeshorn> i can try reading that and see why we are going wrong
[07:39] <sui> SHMO are you sure the drivers for the card reader are installed?
[07:39] <Slart> SHMO: ouch.. that's really old.. you can't run the regular live cd? how much memory do you have?
[07:40] <SHMO> no sui
[07:40] <sui> u can install vmware in ubuntu its easy
[07:40] <Goundy> I got an old ubuntu live-CD but there's no install icone on the desktop.
[07:40] <Goundy> How to get it ?
[07:40] <Goundy> got the 5.10
[07:40] <SHMO> i've got 1gb memory but it's a dell laptop so the intel card uses system memory for video memory
[07:40] <xmanxxxx> sui: i do, but it dont accept the serials
[07:40] <SHMO> i get to 86% downloading the latest distro
[07:40] <xmanxxxx> is amazing
[07:40] <SHMO> is there a way i can burn the iso directly from the ftp?
[07:41] <xmanxxxx> sui: u know why?
[07:41] <Slart> SHMO: try saving the iso somewhere else.. not on the desktop or home
[07:41] <sui> why?
[07:41] <SHMO> Slart, that's why i'm trying to access my memory card
[07:41] <xmanxxxx> sui: i run the patch and it dont accept the serial
[07:41] <speedhunt3r> Slart, so any idea what can i do? if i download screenlets and build it again will it do any good? cuase i tried make install and make menu but it still doesn't let me run screenlets automatically at startup
[07:42] <sui> xmanxxx what patch r u talking about the vmware patch?
[07:42] <demon_spork> gar, disabling kiba-dock didn't stop the crash
[07:42] <Hadeshorn> boot log, anyone? where is?
[07:42] <sweetsinse> dirty
[07:42] <speedhunt3r> SHMO, why don't you just use the alternate CD installation?
[07:42] <xmanxxxx> sui: http://www.howtoforge.com/installing-vmware-server-1.0.4-on-ubuntu-7.10
[07:42] <sweetsinse> Hadeshorn
[07:42] <sweetsinse> there is an xsession error file in your home folder
[07:42] <sweetsinse> might be hidden
[07:43] <SHMO> speedhunt3r, because i have a malformed windows partition that i don't want to touch
[07:43] <SHMO> until i get more help
[07:43] <SHMO> in the mean time the latest version of ubuntu will do fine
[07:43] <SHMO> if i can get it burnt
[07:43] <sweetsinse> i am running that now
[07:43] <sweetsinse> there is scroll lag and compiz lag with firefox
[07:43] <Neural_Overload> I'm having problems with my WUSB54GC and it disconnecting randomly. The only thing that helps is rebooting without the WiFi dongle attached.
[07:43] <sweetsinse> kindof annoying
[07:43] <kahrytan> SHMO-> what you do to windows?
[07:44] <SHMO> kahrytan, an a.i. bot installed a rootkit
[07:44] <hotmonkeyluv> Is there a utility or a program that can reduce disk access in ubuntu?  Linux has those two.
[07:44] <kahrytan> *too
[07:44] <sui> xmanxxxx i don't know about that patch because i installed VMware less then two weeks ago and i never instaled a patch like that
[07:45] <sui> on 7.10
[07:45] <sweetsinse> rootkit?
[07:45] <xmanxxxx> i try but it send errrors
[07:45] <simi> hi, the screen resolution is not saved, it always defaults to  maximum , how can i make it saved?
[07:45] <Slart> norty: grep -o '[^/]*$' should work
[07:45] <SHMO> sweetsinse, the rootkit was made by an a.i. bot that someone taught how to program via hacker forums
[07:46] <SHMO> it's actually, according to the bot, an existing rootkit that has been modified
[07:46] <norty> Slart, do i just use that or do i need to put in the filename im searching for?
[07:46] <sweetsinse> what does it do... it was installed by a bot/
[07:46] <Slart> SHMO: do you have a fast internet connection?
[07:46] <sweetsinse> ?
[07:46] <sui> xmanxxxx http://www.ubuntugeek.com/how-to-install-vmware-server-in-ubuntu-710-gutsy-gibbon.html
[07:46] <SHMO> Slart, pretty fast
[07:46] <sui> xmanxxxx this tut doesn't mention patching at all
[07:46] <patogen> gmi_vorbis.c:37:26: error: vorbis/codec.h: No such file or directory
[07:47] <xmanxxxx> sui: pssss, i hate this
[07:47] <patogen> what does this mean? I know it has to do with vorbis
[07:47] <patogen> but what do I need to install to get it to compile?
[07:47] <Filled-Void> hotmonkeyluv, I think theres a command which optimizes hard disk access on laptops. I think this should help https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/acpi-support/+bug/59695
[07:47] <Slart> norty: you can use that like this ..  ls | grep -o '[^/]*$
[07:47] <sn00zer> xmanxxxx, this one does but its for fiesty http://www.howtoforge.com/ubuntu_feisty_fawn_vmware_server_howto
[07:47] <hotmonkeyluv> Filled-Void: thanks!!!
[07:47] <sui> xmanxxx are use useing the defalts on the vmware install or are you sintalling to a diffrent location?
[07:47] <Slart> SHMO: because I think there is a netinstall cd you can use that is much smaller than the regular cd
[07:48] <SHMO> Slart, can i use the netinstall cd to install a livecd?
[07:48] <xmanxxxx> sui: defaults, isnt the first time that i install vmware
[07:48] <Slart> SHMO: but you'll have to install much of the stuff from internet instead of from your local cd.. so it might take a bit longer
[07:48] <Filled-Void> hotmonkeyluv, Be sure to READ THE WHOLE THING ALSO
