[06:55] <Psynaut> misslecommander: I am prepared for it lol.
[06:55] <Rubin> cookiemonster, noone ever said that.
[06:55] <cookiemonster> ill go play with it for aminute
[06:55] <misslecommander> my pc speaker keeps beeping as i type, only does it after a few hours of running the system
[06:56] <astro76> icesword: is your program a true daemon, or just a script? because you can add things to rc.local
[06:56] <nano__> Rubin: says i dont have the permission to save the file
[06:56] <badkitty> wenbo: For sure this is a usb boot tutorial if you want to try slackware
[06:56] <ZionPsyfer> Psynaut: Have you put your xorg.conf up on paste.ubuntu-nl.org yet?
[06:56] <Rubin> nano__, you need to use sudo to edit it. its a root owned file
[06:56] <misslecommander> Psynaut: this my second install, although its not hard to install, getting everything back is
[06:56] <nano__> sudo edit?
[06:56] <icesword> astro76, no,it is not a daemon,a dialer,which i use to gain ip address
[06:56] <Rubin> nano__: in a terminal, run sudo gedit /etc/dhcp3/dhclient.conf
[06:57] <Psynaut> zionpsyfer: no I haven't.
[06:57] <astro76> nano__: sudoedit
[06:57] <MasterNix> how do I start ssh daemon?
[06:57] <Rubin> MasterNix, install the package called 'ssh'
[06:57] <cookiemonster> how do i login as root
[06:57] <astro76> icesword: it should be run before you log in or after?
[06:57] <Rubin> cookiemonster, sudo -s
[06:57] <astro76> !sudo | cookiemonster
[06:57] <ubotu> cookiemonster: sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for more information.
[06:57] <w00t`> w00ttttttt... now i have a clue in my problem! re:windows machine in LAN!
[06:57] <tockitj> Q: how to remove package conflict ? :-/
[06:57] <cookiemonster> errrm
[06:57] <badkitty> wenbo:  You can even check out http://www.pendrivelinux.com/
[06:58] <w00t`> its about the firestarter!
[06:58] <cookiemonster> the readme says i need to run it under root
[06:58] <icesword> astro76, yes, i want it run after i log in
[06:58] <MasterNix> i think he has it
[06:58] <Rubin> tockitj, whats the error exactly? you can try to remove affected packages with apt-get remove .. or sometimes apt-get -f install will resolve things.
[06:58] <MasterNix> doesn't ubuntu come with ssh?
[06:58] <badkitty> cookiemonster: try sudo -i
[06:58] <tockitj> Rubin, E: Error, pkgProblemResolver::Resolve generated breaks, this may be caused by held packages.
[06:58] <nano__> Rubin: And change hostname to what?
[06:58] <astro76> cookiemonster: yes sudo allows to run a command as root, sudo -s or sudo -i gives a root shell
[06:58] <w00t`> how do i uninstall firestarter? in add/remove.... lemme try that :)
[06:58] <astro76> !startup | icesword
[06:58] <ubotu> icesword: To add programs to start up when you log into your Gnome session go to System>Preferences>Sessions and use the Startup Programs tab. For more information, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AddingProgramToSessionStartup - See !boot for starting non-interactive programs at boot
[06:58] <badkitty> MasterNix: I dont think so
[06:58] <Rubin> MasterNix, the ssh package installs the sshd (server)
[06:58] <NoelJB> and the ssh client
[06:58] <tockitj> Rubin, apt-get -f instnall # produces same message
[06:59] <Rubin> nano__: anything you want really.
[06:59] <Rubin> tockitj, paste it to pastebin.ca so we can see exactly whats up
[06:59] <icesword> astro76, yes,i will see that,thank you
[06:59] <nano__> Rubin: Oh really now? :D
[07:00] <Rubin> nano__: its just for advanced cases
[07:00] <Rubin> its sent to the dhcpserver i think, and is used as a default search domain if you type a host without a domain
[07:00] <nano__> and after i do all of this... restart?
[07:00] <MasterNix> ok he installed ssh and sshd how do we start the deamon please?
[07:00] <NoelJB> MasterNix, I'd have to check, but I believe that the desktop installs just install the ssh client, and you have to install the server.  I suspect that the server installs install the ssh server by default.
[07:00] <CruCio> link
[07:00] <Rubin> nano__: yeah.. or even unplug and replug should do it.
[07:00] <CruCio> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/52373/
[07:01] <nano__> the laptop?
[07:01] <Rubin> MasterNix, it should start by itself.. but /etc/init.d/anything start|stop|restart etc is how you manage services
[07:01] <nano__> Rubin: I'm going to connect wirelessly
[07:01] <niuq> i have this .rpm program (maya 8), how could i make it work for ubuntu?
[07:01] <niuq> i've heard the use of alien command is not recommended so, there is another way?
[07:01] <emma> Does anyone here use Digg?
[07:01] <Rubin> nano__: give it a try ;)
[07:01] <badkitty> MasterNix: Try /etc/ini.d/ssh ??
[07:02] <CruCio> Astro how do i clear my history  and delete all the stuff my ubuntu saves while browsing the internet ?
[07:02] <badkitty> init.d**
[07:02] <Rubin> niuq: its not reccomended for people who dont know what they are doing. its ok in some cases
[07:02] <Taggard> Does anyone have any idea why my vhost that is enabled and the servername matches my domain name exactly isn't working?
[07:02] <Rubin> niuq, if your trying to install an RPM, get the ubuntu version of whatever it is instead
[07:02] <CruCio> and how do i save link as faverite ?
[07:02] <niuq> Rubin: i haven't found a ubuntu version for maya
[07:02] <Rubin> Taggard, vhost?
[07:03] <astro76> CruCio: in firefox it's tool>clear private data, as for your other problem, it would be nice to see the exact command and output copied and pasted from the terminal, not one line of output out of context
[07:03] <Taggard> Rubin: Apache virtual host
[07:03] <NoelJB> MasterNix: /etc/iniit.d/ssh start ought to do it.
[07:03] <kdubois> niuq: you can use alien or compile the code yourself..
[07:03] <tockitj> Rubin, problems started when i have added "http://ppa.launchpad.net/amaranth/ubuntu" as third-party repository
[07:03] <MasterNix> thanks NOel
[07:03] <MasterNix> NoelJB,
[07:03] <Rubin> Taggard, some people posted this: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=66859 which seems to suggest you can do it with alien
[07:03] <badkitty> MasterNix: Isn't that what I siad earlier?
[07:03] <astro76> CruCio: you can also try fix broken packages in synaptic, but it should be the same as apt-get install -f I think
[07:03] <marx2k_> !lamp
[07:03] <niuq> Rubin: i just get the .rpm, how can i compile that?
[07:03] <ubotu> LAMP is an acronym for Linux-Apache-MySQL-PHP. However, the term is often used for setups using alternative but different software, such as Perl or Python instead of PHP, and Postgres instead of MySQL. For help with setting up LAMP on Ubuntu, see  https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ApacheMySQLPHP - See also the Server CD installation process (different in Edgy+)
[07:03] <NoelJB> MasterNix, I'll assume you fixed my "ii" typo  :-)
[07:03] <Rubin> Taggard, oh. try #apache
[07:04] <nano__> Rubin: No Go
[07:04] <kdubois> niuq: is it closed source?
[07:04] <w00t`> now my ubuntu & window machine working properly :)
[07:04] <Rubin> nano__: cat the resolv.conf again and make sure your changes stayed
[07:04] <niuq> Rubin: i think it is, maya 8 for 3d animation
[07:04] <w00t`> fr500,  you there? i solved my problem :)
[07:04] <Taggard> Rubin: Good idea
[07:04] <CruCio> all my broken packages had been corrected
[07:04] <Rubin> niuq: rpms are usually pre-compiled binaries
[07:04] <CruCio> so the -f didn't really work
[07:04] <niuq> kdubois: i think it is, maya 8 for 3d animation
[07:04] <wj32> hey everyone im back
[07:04] <w00t`> fr500,  thanks for the help! if you can see this :)
[07:05] <wj32> the last time i said i lost my password
[07:05] <astro76> niuq: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=66859
[07:05] <niuq> Rubin: mm ok... didn't really help me, sorry
[07:05] <wj32> i forgot my gmail password... so can anyone here send me a reset email again?
[07:05] <w00t`> Firestarter is the problem :)
[07:05] <CruCio> astro , you got java installed on you're ubuntu ?
[07:05] <astro76> CruCio: yes
[07:05] <CruCio> am on my ps3
[07:05] <CruCio> :|
[07:05] <CruCio> how ?
[07:05] <astro76> CruCio: seriously?
[07:05] <niuq> astro76: hey thx
[07:06] <CruCio> yes
[07:06] <astro76> CruCio: that's powerpc, java won't work on that
[07:06] <CruCio> am using ubuntu(PS3)
[07:06] <astro76> AFAIK
[07:06] <nano__> same nameserver <IP_ADDRESS>
[07:06] <Rubin> nano__, so it overwrote it again.
[07:06] <kdubois> niuq: you can use alien to convert the package, or you can manually extract the files and place them in their proper location. the second route is not advised, but should work nonetheless
[07:06] <CruCio> actually it chould
[07:06] <CruCio> is Xchat and VLC player does
[07:06] <Vaxen> my filesystem just turned only readable :S any fix for this?
[07:06] <lazy247x> i have a problem with wifi router? help
[07:06] <CruCio>  i don't see wht it shouldn't
[07:06] <Rubin> nano__: go ahead and reboot to make sure dhcpclient is reading your changed config file. then edit the resolv.conf again and then try it...
[07:07] <lazy247x> if says invailded ip address -- not working
[07:07] <badkitty> lazy247x: Whats the problem
[07:07] <astro76> CruCio: xchat and vlc are opensource softwares which can be recompiled for different architectures
[07:07] <CruCio> i just typed in apt-get install Xchat
[07:07] <niuq> astro76:
[07:07] <badkitty> lazy247x: That is for the router's IP?
[07:07] <nano__> Rubin: Hold on a sec
[07:07] <CruCio> but i really think ubuntu should work
[07:07] <CruCio> because
[07:07] <CruCio> PS3 -> PowerPC
[07:07] <lazy247x> what do u mean?
[07:08] <soldats> !enter > CruCio
[07:08] <lazy247x> its a links router
[07:08] <lazy247x> i tryed connecting to my router but doesnt work
[07:08] <badkitty> lazy247x: Is the router giving you that error, or the machine trying to connect to the router?
[07:08] <astro76> CruCio: that's great, and it does, except that java is closed source so you're at Sun's mercy of providing binaries
[07:08] <astro76> CruCio: see here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Java#head-81c3789bc76872336f69a7af90d1759ef38eeb64
[07:08] <Rubin> i thought java was gpl now?
[07:08] <randomice> hello, I've installed the newest version of xserver-xorg-core (2:<IP_ADDRESS>.dfsg-12ubuntu8.1) and I could not start eclipse anymore.
[07:08] <badkitty> lazy247x: Is your router set for dhcp?
[07:08] <lazy247x> yes
[07:09] <badkitty> Is your box set to get IP from router or set as a static IP?
[07:09] <randomice> does anyone ahve similar problems?
[07:09] <lazy247x> can my comcast have an internet problem
[07:09] <CruCio> hmm
[07:09] <lazy247x> no
[07:09] <lazy247x> its work earlyer today
[07:09] <CruCio> i still can't get myself into believing this
[07:09] <badkitty> lazy247x: Did you reset the router?
[07:09] <lazy247x> no
[07:09] <icesword> what these files are?/etc/rc.d/rc0.d rc1.d...
[07:10] <badkitty> lazy247x: Any other pc's connected to the router?
[07:10] <tockitj> Q: apt-get related problem, how could this be fixed: "E: Error, pkgProblemResolver::Resolve generated breaks, this may be caused by held packages."
[07:10] <Rubin> icesword, they tell the system what to start and stop for various modes (runlevels)
[07:10] <lazy247x> can i do it from an computer or do i have to reset it from the box
[07:10] <lazy247x> ya one other computer
[07:10] <emman> anybody has an idea about flash for ubuntu user?
[07:10] <grekkos> is there a way to make VLC rebuild the index of a video file or something like that? i seem to be getting a lot of dropped frames... but the audio continues flawlessly
[07:10] <emman> flash maker
[07:10] <badkitty> lazy247x: You usually can reset it from a computer if you can get into the routers config pages
[07:11] <soldats> emman, like flash mx
[07:11] <lazy247x> how do i do that?
[07:11] <Rubin> lazy247x, pull the power plug on it.. count to 10, plug it back in.
[07:11] <niuq> emman: like flash cs3?
[07:11] <cookiemonster> how do i get windows to read a linux partition
[07:11] <nano__> Rubin: now its not even timing out
[07:11] <Rubin> cookiemonster, http://www.fs-driver.org/
[07:11] <emman> yes
[07:11] <badkitty> lazy247x: Although if that other computer is able to access internet it's not an issue with the router having connectivity with the SP
[07:11] <icesword> Rubin, i see,thank you,but i enter rc0.d ,i found k00xfs....what is that?why does it have k00 something?
[07:11] <emman> flash mx
[07:11] <grekkos> emman: you have to use wine and run flash mx through that
[07:11] <niuq> emman: i've tested flash 8 on ubuntu it works pretty well, you should use wine
[07:12] <Rubin> icesword, dpkg -S /path/to/file will tell you what package is responsible for a file
[07:12] <hangthedj> join ##windows
[07:12] <badkitty> cookiemonster: I think there is a good programm from the same makers as driveimagexml
[07:12] <icesword> Rubin, so linux has six runlevel?
[07:12] <soldats> emman, i dont think its possible, not even through wine. but that was a while back. it may be possible with wine but its a question for #winehq
[07:12] <ghosTM55> badkitty: virtualbox running toooooooo slow T_T
[07:12] <Rubin> icesword, i guess. i only ever use 1 and 2 ;)
[07:12] <emman> i mean equivalent to mx. an open source flashmx
[07:12] <randomice> hello, I've installed the newest version of xserver-xorg-core (2:<IP_ADDRESS>.dfsg-12ubuntu8.1) and I could not start eclipse anymore.
[07:12] <soldats> niuq, flash 8 isnt flash mx
[07:12] <ZionPsyfer> icesword: Here's a good quickie explanation. =)   http://www.help2go.com/Tutorials/Linux%10UNIX/Linux_Runlevels.html
[07:12] <badkitty> ghosTM55: What are you trying to run? What are your system specs? How much virtual memory di you give it ;-p
[07:12] <icesword> Rubin, so you do not use x,you are great
[07:13] <Rubin> icesword, er, i do use x
[07:13] <ghosTM55> badkitty: 256mb memory for it
[07:13] <niuq> soldats: just an older version?
[07:13] <badkitty> ghosTM55: Well thats why haha, how much RAM does your physical pc have?
[07:14] <MasterNix> I can't connect to him.  his sshd is started
[07:14] <MasterNix> now what?
[07:14] <CruCio> Java doesn't work on PowerPC right ?
[07:14] <ghosTM55> badkitty: 512mb , it's an old box
[07:14] <Rubin> icesword, each distro of linux does runlevels differently. ubuntu uses 2 for normal startup
[07:14] <CruCio> you said astro
[07:14] <emman> any open source software like flash mx?
[07:14] <icesword> Rubin, yes i see
[07:14] <jlulian38> What did I do D=!
[07:14] <soldats> niuq, flash 8 is an old version but its for playing .flv files. flash mx is a studio enviroment to create and edit flash movies and videos etc
[07:14] <jlulian38> All videos are playing in black and white
[07:14] <wobblywu> that "99% of your hdd space is in use" notice I get, is there some configuration for it anywhere? as in, any place I can change the percentage it should warn on, and/or disable it altogether?
[07:15] <NoelJB> MasterNix, can you ping his IP address?
[07:15] <astro76> CruCio: this page says https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Java#head-81c3789bc76872336f69a7af90d1759ef38eeb64
[07:15] <ZionPsyfer> CruCio: you should read that link you were given.
[07:15] <badkitty> ghosTM55: Well you should give it as much as your physical computer has... virtual windows can be slow...(regular windows is slow!!! virtual can only be as good at best
[07:15] <ghosTM55> badkitty: i want to get a vmware to work on my ubuntu , but i don't know where to download it , i googled it before , but failed
[07:15] <ronino> hi
[07:15] <Rubin> wobblywu, its a bad idea to run that close to full hard disk.. you'll get terribly fragmented etc. why doyo uwant to disable it?
[07:15] <Ellement> rubin: am doing manual driver install now. i have to type the command sudo gedit .... except console saying gedit command not found
[07:15] <soldats> !vmware
[07:15] <ubotu> VMWare Player is in Ubuntu's !Multiverse repository (package "vmware-player", not available for Gutsy, only Feisty and Edgy), and http://www.easyvmx.com/easyvmx.shtml can create VMs for it. Instructions can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VMware - See also !virtualizers
[07:15] <ronino> What package do I have to install to get "mkinitrd"?
[07:15] <NoelJB> MasterNix, can you expand on "I can't connect to him"
[07:15] <soldats> ghosTM55, see above
[07:15] <badkitty> ghosTM55: Why?VMWARE wont be any faster
[07:15] <wobblywu> Rubin, I don't want to disable it, I want to put it on 90 or 95%
[07:15] <Rubin> Ellement, huh. no gedit? is this ubuntu or kubuntu or what?
[07:15] <MasterNix> no I can't ping him :-(
[07:16] <ghosTM55> badkitty: i see
[07:16] <Rubin> wobblywu, ahh
[07:16] <CruCio> hmm
[07:16] <wobblywu> Rubin, it currently triggers once I have <1MB left, which is just worthless
[07:16] <MasterNix> im trying to set up compiz for my newbie friend NoelJB
[07:16] <biouser> vim is my favorite editor
[07:16] <soldats> Rubin, gedit is optional at install afaik
[07:16] <CruCio> astro you're using X86 ?
[07:16] <Odd-rationale> vegpuff: Are you still there?
[07:16] <astro76> CruCio: yes
[07:16] <NoelJB> ghosTM55, I use VMware all the time.  You get VMware from www.vmware.com.  You can install Player or Server for free. Workstation and ESX are fee-based.
[07:16] <ghosTM55> NoelJB: it's free ???
[07:16] <wobblywu> Rubin, i'm aware of the fragmentation issues, but until someone makes either an ext3 defrag or I buy a new hdd that's something I'll have to live with :)
[07:16] <CruCio> ohh wll
[07:16] <NoelJB> MasterNix, is his server on a public IP address?
[07:16] <CruCio> guess am screwed
[07:16] <biouser> insert to edit, 'esc' :w to write, 'esc' :q to quit
[07:16] <biouser> in vim
[07:16] <biouser> there are lots of cheat sheets
[07:17] <NoelJB> ghosTM55, VMware Server (successor to VMware GSX) is free.
[07:17] <ZionPsyfer> CruCio: did you read that link?
[07:17] <biouser> it doesn't leave garbage files around
[07:17] <NoelJB> ghosTM55, As is VMware Player.
[07:17] <ghosTM55> NoelJB: i see , thx a lot , i'll have a look at it , is there any diff between player and server?
[07:17] <biouser> CruCio, how so?
[07:17] <badkitty> NoelJB: You know what pissed me off.. It took me days to get the ID to install VMWARE again... and when I installed a newer one on my GF's laptop, it installed everything except for the actual player and  server
[07:17] <CruCio> Hope they fix this problem on the upcoming Hardy Heron
[07:17] <NoelJB> ghosTM55, VMware Workstation (premimum over Player) is not free, nor is VMware ESX (premium over Server).
[07:17] <nano__> Rubin: it keeps changing the second nameserver to the old one
[07:18] <NoelJB> ghosTM55, yes, major differences.
[07:18] <ghosTM55> NoelJB: i see , thx
[07:18] <Rubin> nano_, hmm. it goes in order, so that might be ok
[07:18] <ghosTM55> NoelJB: maybe player is suitable for me
[07:18] <nano__> but its still timing out
[07:18] <NoelJB> badkitty, I'd need more detail.  I've installed VMware (Workstation) on XP, Vista, Feisty, Gutsy and Hardy.
[07:18] <nano__> Rubin: but its still timing out
[07:18] <Rubin> nano__so resolv.conf says what exactly?
[07:18] <NoelJB> Well, also NT, 2000, etc, since I've used it since the late '90s.
[07:19] <chr11> apparently in order to play an avi file... there has to be something in it
[07:19] <icesword> Rubin, yes ,i got it,the file start with s means start,k means kill ,
[07:19] <chr11> I had all the right codecs
[07:19] <badkitty> NoelJB: I mean when it installed in vista it installed the everything necessary exceot the actual player and server. For example the network connections were setup but when I navigate to run it, it simply wasn't there
[07:19] <chr11> nothing in the files to play
[07:19] <KyMc1985> Rubin: that same error "Kernel panic" is happening again with v7.10 x86 release
[07:19] <nano__> hmmm
[07:19] <CruCio> well am off to bed
[07:19] <chr11> thanks anyway badkitty
[07:19] <Rubin> icesword, yeah. and those are all just symlinks to /etc/init.d scripts
[07:19] <badkitty> chr11: Whats up?
[07:19] <Rubin> KyMc1985, bummer :(
[07:19] <chr11> thanks for your help..
[07:20] <chr11> with totem
[07:20] <badkitty> chr11: Sure man
[07:20] <nano__> Rubin: supersede line is still a comment with the fugue.com etcetera
[07:20] <chr11> I had everything I needed though...
[07:20] <NoelJB> badkitty, what were you installing?  VMware Server?  Which version?   Actually, nevermind.  You were installing on Vista, which is OT for this channel.
[07:20] <badkitty> ghosTM55: The player can only play existing VMs so you would need to download appliances
[07:20] <chr11> my avi file I was trying to play was empty
[07:20] <astro76> icesword: I thought you said this was to run after you login?
[07:20]  * chr11 pounds his head
[07:20] <badkitty> NoelJB: Yah no big deal.. I have in on my PC which is what counts.. lol
[07:20] <ghosTM55> badkitty: okay
[07:21] <Rubin> nano_, er.. resolv.conf should only contain 2 lines, one that says 'search' and one that says 'nameserver'
[07:21] <NoelJB> badkitty, or use VMware server, which can create them.  and there is a 3rd party tool that can also set them up, IIRC.
[07:21] <chr11> night and thanks again
[07:21] <Rubin> nano__: your talking about /etc/dhcp3/dhclient.conf ?
[07:21] <nano__> Rubin: yes
[07:21] <icesword> astro76, i just want to learn linux,and want to know how it start,maybe i just did not describe myself clearly
 where you press alt + 1, 2, 3 etc and create more x enviroments?
[07:21] <Rubin> nano__: could you just throw both files on pastebin.ca so i can check what you did?
[07:21] <compy> is it possible to have two different sessions of x running, ie running xfce and fluxbox at the same time
[07:21] <compy> where you press alt + 1, 2, 3 etc and create more x enviroments?
[07:22] <nano__> hold on
[07:22] <astro76> badkitty: http://www.easyvmx.com/
[07:22] <CruCio> Astro , could you play games like starcraft or warcraft 3 on you're ubuntu x86 ?
[07:22] <Rubin> compy: yes
[07:22] <badkitty> NoelJB: Yep, Im aware of that... but for ghost he wanted to have a windows xp setup, so he'd have toa actually get the server and install it himself.
[07:22] <nano__> Rubin: both files? isnt it only one?
[07:22] <compy> Rubin, sweet
[07:22] <Rubin> nano__: dhcpclient overwrites resolv.conf. so 1st your telling it to do so differently, and then your checking that its done it right. resolv.conf is what the system uses to do DNS resolution (turn names into ip addresses)
[07:23] <astro76> compy: you can (they will be F7, F8,...), and easy way to do so is to go to apps > system tools > new login (edit your menus if this item is not there)
[07:23] <badkitty> astro76: wow thats cool, they can do Vm's for windows?
[07:23] <badkitty> astro76: (without getting into trouble)
[07:23] <astro76> badkitty: just a blank vm image you can install anything in
[07:23] <Rubin> nano__: so you need to make the proper lines in dhclient.conf first.. then look at resolv.conf to see that its correct.
[07:24] <compy> astro76, thanks ill do that
[07:24] <badkitty> astro76: So it doesn't actually install the software - minus registration, it just prepares the Machine to handle an install?
[07:25] <astro76> compy: also I think this is the same as the "switch user" option when you hit the power button in gnome
[07:25] <icesword> astro76, then ,what does the number mean,like /etc/rc.d/rc0.d/k00avahi-daemon, and k10wine,so what does this number mean?
[07:25] <compy> ok cool
[07:25] <astro76> badkitty: exactly
[07:25] <compy> thanks
[07:25] <Rubin> icesword, they are run alphabetically. the number helps insure the order
[07:26] <misslecommander> Rubin: you know alot about alot
[07:26] <astro76> icesword: k means to kill, the two digits are to force an order... if you want to learn more search for "sysv init"
[07:26] <Rubin> misslecommander, i know a little about a lot.
[07:26] <astro76> or system V init
[07:26] <oddalot> is there a program that can test for what resolution my monitor is actually putting out, because it says 93hz, but i don't believe it
[07:26] <badkitty> astro76: Thats still pretty darn handy... I noticed they have an 'experimental' directx and 3d accelleration function. I wish they would add an option to enable physical support of GFX cards in VM environment..
[07:27] <oddalot> anyone?
[07:27] <icesword> yes, thank you all,astro76 ,Rubin
[07:27] <oddalot> bueller?
[07:27] <marx2k_> Having an issue here... I had xampp installed but then removed it. but now when I try to going to my site (without xampp installed) it still is going to http://localhost/xampp
[07:27] <NoelJB> badkitty, VMware is working on supporting a more sophisticated virtualized video card.
[07:28] <Rubin> oddalot, i'm looking, but i don't think there is one :/
[07:28] <nano__> Rubin: I can get you one... the dhclient.conf. resolv.conf is disappearing when i put it on the flash drive (not using the pc with the problem so...)
[07:28] <tockitj> Rubin, is it comon for apt-get to break ?
[07:28] <Zloog> oddalot what video card do you have?
[07:28] <badkitty> NoelJB: That would be nice, its one of the main things that forces me to have to dualboot
[07:28] <oddalot> yeah...because my monitor goes into this mode, and it says 60hz on the screen, but in the settings for ubuntu it says 93hz
[07:28] <Rubin> oddalot, xvidtune maybe?
[07:28] <oddalot> hmm
[07:29] <Rubin> tockitj, it rarely breaks if you stick to supported repositories and .deb files
[07:29] <misslecommander> now that you say that, mine is set at 60hz, yet my monitor tells me its 85hz
[07:29] <Zloog> just what brand
[07:29] <oddalot> ok
[07:29] <Rubin> tockitj, if you get stuff from rpms or 3d parties.. yeah.
[07:29] <nano__> Rubin: http://pastebin.ca/859573
[07:29] <oddalot> i'll try it, hope this doesn't break my computer
[07:29] <Rubin> oddalot, dont change anything with xvidtune. just look at it and quit
[07:29] <Zloog> Oddalot: what brand video card do you have?
[07:29] <misslecommander> sure does lookd like 60hz, i set it to 85 and after reboot it will tell me "out of range"
[07:30] <oddalot> nvidia fx5600
[07:30] <misslecommander> i keep it at 60hz now
[07:30] <nano__> Rubin: let ya see the foolishness i did...
[07:30] <oddalot> it's crt, my eyes, the goggles do nothing
[07:30] <Rubin> nano__: that looks correct
[07:30] <nano__> hmmm
[07:30] <Rubin> nano__: now what does resolv.conf say exactly?
[07:30] <tockitj> Rubin, i did not know that :-) is there general way to repair this condition ?
[07:31] <Rubin> tockitj, no.. it depends whats hanging it up
[07:31] <Rubin> tockitj, bad packages can really mess things up sometimes...
[07:31] <oddalot> it really just looks like it's at 60 hz...because it hurts my head
[07:31] <nano__> nameserver <IP_ADDRESS>
[07:31] <nano__> nameserver <IP_ADDRESS>
[07:31] <misslecommander> its 60hz i know, but it is funny my monitor reports it as 85hz. 60hz bad for the eyes
[07:32] <Rubin> nano__: hrm. i wonder whats going on then
[07:32] <Rubin> nano__ try this: host google.com <IP_ADDRESS>
[07:32] <misslecommander> same issue here oddalot nvidia
[07:32] <tockitj> Rubin, oh thanks.. i'm playing with `strace apt-get ... 2>&1 | cut -d" -f2` right now -- tring to figure out where is he getting info what to install and what not :-/
[07:32] <Rubin> tockitj, LOL
[07:32] <badkitty> please dont say bad things about nvidia... it hurts my feelings
[07:32] <oddalot> well...i would just manually edit xorg.conf....but my monitor is so old i can't get the specs on it
[07:33] <nano__> Rubin: timed out
[07:33] <tockitj> Rubin, seems /var/cache/apt/pkgcache.bin is broken -- and it is binary :-(
[07:33] <fraroco> hello there.
[07:33] <soldats> oddalot, not even from google??
[07:33] <misslecommander> i didnt notice it till you said. then i checked what the monitor says it is. i can tell , its 60hz, it hurts my eyes too
[07:33] <Rubin> nano__: ahh. so the router is also BLOCKING dns requests, in additon to serving bad ones.
[07:33] <fraroco> somebody know something about spdbv.Linux: ../../src/xcb_lock.c:77: _XGetXCBBuffer: Assertion `((int) ((xcb_req) - (dpy->request)) >= 0)' failed.
[07:33] <fraroco> ?
[07:33] <oddalot> nah...google has let me down for the last time
[07:33] <meson10> Hi.. i have not been able to get my "hda-intel" working.... i have tried installing it all possible ways,[src and apt] but ti still is not able to detect my sound card
[07:33] <Rubin> nano__: can you get a better one? or figure out somehow whats wrong with it? what kind is it?
[07:33] <soldats> oddalot, what make model
[07:33] <wenbo> sudo apt-get install x-windows

[07:34] <Rubin> meson10, with 7.x series of ubuntu that should just work, does it not?
[07:34] <nano__> Rubin: shouldnt be deffective as im using it to come here
[07:34] <meson10> Rubin: Nopes... :(
[07:34] <Rubin> nano__ could be it works but is doing something odd linux doesnt like
[07:34] <xeek> hi... anyone can help me on installing ubuntu?

[07:35] <bazhang> xeek: what is your issue?
[07:35] <badkitty> xeek: easy just follow the instructions
[07:35] <Rubin> meson10, huh ok
[07:35] <nano__> Rubin: Warning: Message parser reports malformed message packet
[07:35] <misslecommander> oddalot: someone had directed me to this, to reconfigure to vidcard as well as other devices, sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[07:36] <oddalot> i already have done that misslecommander but thanks
[07:36] <fraroco> nodoby?
[07:36] <Rubin> nano__: try this: dig google.com @<IP_ADDRESS>
[07:36] <xeek> oddalot, badkitty, i want to dualboot with w****ws
[07:36] <phreck> sigh
[07:36] <phreck> when will they fix the flash issue
[07:36] <oddalot> install windows first
[07:36] <bazhang> 2012 phreck
[07:36] <misslecommander> oddalot: it didnt change anything for you ?
[07:36] <wers> other than orca, is there an app that would read text for me? :D
[07:36] <oddalot> then install ubuntu, then make two extra partitions for ubuntu, one as ext3, and one for swap
[07:36] <phreck> lol
[07:37] <oddalot> misslecommander: still has bad refresh rates
[07:37] <bazhang> !info festival
[07:37] <ubotu> festival: general multi-lingual speech synthesis system. In component main, is optional. Version 1.4.3-21ubuntu2 (gutsy), package size 680 kB, installed size 2048 kB
[07:37] <badkitty> xeek: you know how to set up a partition in addition to your windows partition?
[07:37] <soldats> oddalot, http://www.tradeloop.com/m/products/product_view.cfm?View=7845
[07:37] <xeek> oddalot,..,is there partitioning tool except part.magic(free)
[07:37] <oddalot> !gparted
[07:37] <ubotu> GParted is a !GUI partitioning program. Type « sudo apt-get install gparted » in a console to install it - A GParted "live" CD is available at http://gparted-livecd.tuxfamily.org/
[07:37] <meson10> Rubin: Any help?
[07:37] <oddalot> ^^gparted
[07:37] <nano__> Rubin: Got answer:
[07:37] <misslecommander> oddalot: there is a URL i can give u that supposedly can fix the issue, but i tried it, and i got a random "out of range" message on reboot
[07:38] <Ellement> help: in manual install of video card, i have to enter sudo aticonfig --initial. its telling me to copy config file template to /etc/XII. not sure how i go about this. thanks for any help
[07:38] <badkitty> xeek: Ubuntu has gparted which can resize the win partition during the install of ubuntu
[07:38] <nano__> Rubin: Warning recursion requested but not available
[07:38] <misslecommander> i got lucky to even get back in to fix it, i since backed up my /etc
[07:38] <bazhang> xeek: listen to badkitty on this :}
[07:38] <oddalot> soldats: that link doesn't give any specs on the monitor
[07:38] <xeek> oddalot,ubotu: is installing !gparted need internet conn.?
[07:38] <nano__> Rubin: some other randomness
[07:38] <oddalot> download and burn the live cd
[07:38] <soldats> oddalot, refresh rate is 75 hz
[07:39] <oddalot> refresh rate of 75hz doesn't work
[07:39] <oddalot> and it can go higher than that
[07:39] <badkitty> xeek: You have livecd yet?
[07:39] <oddalot> i know, because i use 85hz in windoes
[07:39] <oddalot> windows*
[07:39] <Rubin> nano__: here is what i get http://pastebin.ca/859585
[07:39] <badkitty> more like windoesn't
[07:39] <bazhang> haha
[07:39] <oddalot> rofl
[07:39] <soldats> lol
[07:39] <xeek> badkitty, oddalot: do u mean qparted live-cd or ubuntu live-cd?
[07:40] <badkitty> ubuntu livecd
[07:40] <oddalot> gparted live cd
[07:40] <oddalot> adn ubuntu cd
[07:40] <meson10> Hi.. i have not been able to get my "hda-intel" working.... i have tried installing it all possible ways,[src and apt] but ti still is not able to detect my sound card.. any HELp?
[07:40] <badkitty> oddalot: ubuntu livecd has gparted on it
[07:40] <oddalot> oh...didn't know that
[07:40] <oddalot> i figured it would be harder for him that way
[07:40] <nano__> Rubin: nah
[07:40] <tockitj> Rubin, with little bashing i've grep-ed ALL files that apt-get used open() on trying to find bad packages - it seems that ONLY /var/cache/apt/pkgcache.bin mathes :-(( why did they have to use binary -- wouldnt xml do it :-/
[07:40] <oddalot> because he would have to install windows first
[07:40] <badkitty> oddalot: yeah during install it brings it up
[07:40] <bazhang> meson10: you have installed both on your system?
[07:40] <xeek> badkitty, oddalot:i've ubuntu live-cd, but not !gparted
[07:41] <Rubin> tockitj, your using a hammer instead of a screwdriver
[07:41] <badkitty> xeek: You have windows installed already?
[07:41] <meson10> bazhang: Kind of Yes.
[07:41] <xeek> badkitty, i'm sorry.. i plan to buy new windows-pc and install ubuntu..
[07:42] <badkitty> xeek: You want to have windows installed first... trust me
[07:42] <xeek> badkitty, yap!!
[07:42] <oddalot> wait..can the ubuntu cd resize the partitions?
[07:42] <xeek> how to do !gparted?
[07:42] <tockitj> Rubin, i've allready tried all apt-get options. google showed that most forum threads about this error end with no solution :-/
[07:43] <badkitty> xeek: All you need is ubuntu livecd
[07:43] <meson10> bazhang: yes..i have installed both
[07:43] <badkitty> xeek: ubuntu livecd has gparted
[07:43] <Rubin> nano__: this could be an ipv6 related bug. hmm
[07:43] <nano__> Rubin: I'm going to shut off the router
[07:43] <badkitty> oddalot: yep
[07:43] <nano__> Rubin: be back
[07:43] <Rubin> nano__: k
[07:43] <xeek> badkitty:in live-mode or on installing proc.?
[07:43] <tockitj> Rubin, there is probably better solution, but -- main reason i've switched from slack to ubuntu is nice package manager. not it feels disapointing :-/
[07:43] <oddalot> i really don't remember seeing that
[07:43] <oddalot> i only could delete and create partitions
[07:43] <tockitj> s/not/now/
[07:43] <badkitty> xeek:  Wait, you have windows installed?
[07:43] <bazhang> meson10: gutsy hda-intel sound card no sound? have you looked at any of the wikis/comprehensive sound card guide on ubuntuforums?
[07:44] <Rubin> tockitj, what exactly is the problem?
[07:44] <meson10> bazhang: Yes... it installs it all.. but its just not doing any good.
[07:44] <xeek> badkitty: yes i've (i mean i planned it :)
[07:44] <tockitj> Rubin, just a sec -- i'll pastebin everything
[07:44]  * Rubin brb
[07:45] <bazhang> meson10: you've done the ubuntuforums guide then?
[07:45] <badkitty> xeek: Well as soon as you install windows thats when you install ubuntu
[07:45] <arooni> hey folks; i keep hearing what sounds like a hard drive shutting down and spinning up.... i'm guessing its not the one i installed ubuntu on or i wouldn't be talking to you....  ;p  how can i find out what's going on and fix it?
[07:45] <meson10> bazhang: Yeap.
[07:45] <oddalot> hard drives usually make noises like that a few months before they die
[07:45] <bazhang> meson10: and the hda intel factoid from the bot?
[07:46] <Extravert> anyone have a video problem?
[07:46] <xeek> so, it's while installing proc?
[07:46] <badkitty> funny... i've never had a hard drive die on me....
[07:46] <meson10> bazhang: how do i do that?
[07:46] <oddalot> i've had so many
[07:46] <oddalot> it boggles the mind
[07:46] <KyMc1985> not here just weird EIP errors
[07:46] <bazhang> Extravert: what is your precise question? you are allowed only one you know :}
[07:46] <jlulian38> Apparently the X11 renderer doesn't support color on my machine anymore
[07:46] <jlulian38> GL works though o_O
[07:46] <soldats> badkitty, you can make it die :)
[07:46] <bazhang> !hdaintel
[07:46] <ubotu> For fixing your Intel HDA sound this page has useful information https://help.ubuntu.com/community/HdaIntelSoundHowto
[07:46] <badkitty> xeek: After windows is installed you boot to livecd ubuntu and install
[07:46] <bazhang> meson10: see above
[07:47] <joot> badkitty, I have and it is like he said
[07:47] <amitprakash> how do i make a subscript or superscript in kate or gedit?
[07:47] <moDumass> hey all, I just purchased a Linksys NAS200 and iu have no idea how to make it go
[07:47] <moDumass> all instructions i can find a re linux
[07:47] <badkitty> soldats: I usually end up taking a sledge hammer to them before they die on me
[07:47] <Gyrodog> does ne1 know about WINE
[07:47] <badkitty> joot ??
[07:47] <moDumass> any help would be ubertastic
[07:47] <meson10> bazhang: alright
[07:47] <Extravert> bazhang: all my videos are playing with weird colors
[07:47] <xeek> badkitty: so in live-mode i click "install" and then do partition editing during installation?
[07:47] <bazhang> moDumass: a router? you can access it via a browser but you need an ethernet attachment
[07:48] <badkitty> xeek: precisely
[07:48] <joot> badkitty, was just saying that I had a hd die thats all
[07:48] <badkitty> xeek: It will guide you through
[07:48] <bazhang> Extravert: with compiz? what card for video and what driver
[07:48] <badkitty> joot:  ok ;-p
[07:48] <soldats> badkitty, i wouldnt type it here since someone may try it but hdparm with some options will beat it up pretty good
[07:48] <moDumass> bazhang, yeh its done, but how do i find its IP address>
[07:48] <moDumass> ?
[07:48] <Extravert> bazhang: Nvidia 6600 the default driver
[07:48] <soldats> but sledge hammer is sweet
[07:48] <badkitty> soldats: haha i'll keep that in mind
[07:49] <xeek> badkitty:is it safe ???
[07:49] <moDumass> bazhang its a network HDD
[07:49] <Gyrodog> does ne1 know how to install Unreal Tournament on Ubuntu with WINE
[07:49] <bazhang> !nas
[07:49] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about nas - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[07:49] <xeek> badkitty: how big is the risk?
[07:49] <nano___> Rubin: Maybe i should'nt have put american pie on here
[07:49] <bazhang> Gyrodog: #winehq will help there
[07:49] <badkitty> xeek: Yes, the only you have to watch out for is when it asks HOW you want to install and how you partition the drives (IE DO NOT install ubuntu over entire disk cause this will erase your windows partition)
[07:50] <joot> xeek, safe as houses just read the directions properly
[07:50] <tockitj> Rubin, here is it http://www.pastebin.org/15922
[07:50] <Gyrodog> I was just there I can't find nething
[07:50] <Rubin> nano__: googling for this is coming up with a lot of results but no answers. it could be a bug in pdnsd maybe used on the router?  Since its blocking regular requests, its kinda got you in a hard spot :/
[07:50] <bazhang> Extravert: with compiz? have you tried without compiz or with another media player?
[07:51] <nano___> hmm
[07:51] <Rubin> tockitj, what exactly were you doing when this started?
[07:51] <Extravert> bazhang:  no compiz or Desktop effects
[07:51] <badkitty> xeek: Pay attention to what partitions it is asking to format and you will be fine. Recommend setting partitions to different space (40-60 of 100 gig for example) so you can easily ddecipher which partition it is asking about
[07:51] <xeek> badkitty: thank you..
[07:51] <bazhang> Gyrodog: what about the most excellent gaming section on ubuntuforums? otherwise just keep asking here surely someone has it :}
[07:51] <Extravert> bazhang:  no video player works
[07:51] <Extravert> bazhang:  with any type of movie format
[07:51] <tonsofpcs> Extravert: why not?
[07:51] <bazhang> Extravert: what video formats? all?
[07:52] <bazhang> oops
[07:52] <ObsidianX> hey folks, how do i use the debug kernel?
[07:52] <Extravert> bazhang: all
[07:52] <ObsidianX> i want to get debugging output from some of the kernel modules
[07:52] <tockitj> Rubin, i've added "http://ppa.launchpad.net/amaranth/ubuntu" to repositories in order to install compizconfig-manager
[07:52] <Eax> Morning everyone ^_^  Does anyone have any experience with DosEmu?
[07:52] <nano___> Rubin: cant find the wireless network now
[07:52] <amitprakash> how do i make a subscript or superscript in kate or gedit?
[07:52] <Rubin> tockitj, ubuntu's repositories already come with compiz everything...
[07:52] <KyMc1985> Anyone able to help with my Kernel Panic errors?
[07:52] <tockitj> Rubin, compizconfig is not available on official repos
[07:53] <Rubin> tockitj, yes it is.
[07:53] <tonsofpcs> Extravert: vlc?
[07:53] <Extravert> tonsofpcs: yes all
[07:53] <tonsofpcs> Extravert: vmp32x?
[07:53] <tockitj> Rubin, search queries failed to give anything -- they offered installing gnome-compiz-manager that has far less options in configuring 3d effects
[07:54] <Extravert> tonsofpcs: I think its an encoding problem
[07:54] <Rubin> tockitj, ok. well lesson learned, you cant "just" add random repositories and grab packages that arnt tested etc with your distro.
[07:54] <badkitty> tockitj:  Gutsy?
[07:54] <Eax> Does anyone have any experience with dosemu?
[07:54] <Rubin> tockitj, anyway, i think theres a way to fix this for you by removing the affected packages
[07:54] <bazhang> Eax: like dosbox?
[07:55] <tonsofpcs> Extravert: yea, vmp32x does have that issue sometimes
[07:55] <Eax> Bazhang: Yeah :)
[07:55] <Rubin> tockitj, first thing, get that rpository out of your sources.list and apt-get update again.
[07:55] <jonysiguel> hello
[07:55] <jonysiguel> everyone
[07:55] <tockitj> badkitty, yes gutsy

[07:56] <Eax> Bazhang: Thanks a lot :)
[07:56] <amitprakash> how do i make a subscript or superscript in kate or gedit?????
[07:56] <Rubin> nano___: search for restricted in the add/remove programs thing, after chinging upper-right pulldown to all packages
[07:56] <badkitty> Ellement: Youhave an xorg.conf file
[07:57] <jonysiguel> but from what i see in the details of Network Manager is that the driver used is not the one that I installed
[07:57] <badkitty> Ellement: sudo nano /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[07:57] <jonysiguel> so how do I change the driver anyone?
[07:57] <nano___> Rubin: but i need to be connected to the internet
[07:57] <bazhang> Eax: and go to www.abandonware.com for all that dos goodness :}
[07:57] <Rubin> nano___: ahh. yes :/
[07:57] <tockitj> Rubin, i've removed repo -- reload done, apt-get update too
[07:57] <calista> :)
[07:57] <Gyrodog> can I install kubuntu with ubuntut
[07:57] <Rubin> tockitj, ok now apt-get remove --purge compiz-core
[07:58] <bazhang> Gyrodog: kubuntu-desktop
[07:58] <nano___> Rubin: i can download it on here and send it over if i can find it
[07:58] <codah2> Rubin: does http://acid.evolabs.net/papervision/app3/Main.html <-- work for you?
[07:58] <Rubin> nano___: i think its got a lot of dependancies. but yeah
[07:58] <Eax> Bazhang: Thanks a lot m8 :D Have a nice day ^ ^
[07:58] <Rubin> codah2: yes
[07:58] <Gyrodog> yeah how do I install it
[07:58] <bazhang> Eax: you too!
[07:58] <codah2> awesome
[07:58] <badkitty> Ellement: Find it?
[07:59] <bazhang> Gyrodog: sudo apt-get install packagename
[07:59] <codah2> my code runs on everything !
[07:59] <tockitj> Rubin, error: http://www.pastebin.org/15924
[07:59] <Rubin> tockitj, ok, try dpkg -r --purge compiz-core
[07:59] <Ellement> badkitty: i need to be able to access it using the command - >  sudo aticonfig --initial --input=/etc/X11/xorg.conf   but when i do this it says no conf file
[07:59] <Gyrodog> ok I got the old kde in here now how do I remove it
[08:00] <tockitj> Rubin, dpkg: conflicting actions -P (--purge) and -r (--remove)
[08:00] <joot> jonysiguel, try installing  wifi radar it might just work
[08:00] <Rubin> tockitj, hmm. try dpkg -P compiz-core
[08:00] <tockitj> Rubin, which one to try ?
[08:00] <bazhang> Gyrodog: you mean you want kde4? that is different from kde 3.5.8 iirc
[08:00] <badkitty> Ellement: Did you check to make sure its there? Also it could by a syntax error
[08:00] <jonysiguel> ok
[08:00] <jonysiguel> i have it actually
[08:01] <jonysiguel> but you see, ubuntu is using a preinsatlled driver
[08:01] <Gyrodog> well wut ever the newest kde is but I want kubuntu
[08:01] <jonysiguel> which is not the correct driver
[08:01] <tockitj> Rubin, dpkg: dependency problems prevent removal of compiz-core:

[08:01] <ubotu> LAMP is an acronym for Linux-Apache-MySQL-PHP.

For help with setting up LAMP on Ubuntu, see  https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ApacheMySQLPHP - See also the Server CD installation process (different in Edgy+)
[08:01] <jonysiguel> how do I change that driver?
[08:01] <drgeb> Hi when I reboot my machine, for the very first login my XServer reboots and then for all other logins I am able to login as normal, anyone seen this ? How can I fix it, or trouble shoot this issue ?
[08:01] <badkitty> marx2k You are doing big things uh
[08:01] <Ellement> badkitty: thats the thing in /etc/X11/ there is no xorg.conf file. only xorg.conf.original-0 and xorg.conf.1 and xorg.conf.2
[08:01] <bazhang> Gyrodog: probably best answered in #kubuntu-kde4
[08:02] <Rubin> tockitj, add a --force-remove-reinstreq --force-depends
[08:02] <Zloog> Hi, vlc is giving me this: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/52381/ error when i run it. Does anyone know what it could mean?

[08:02] <Gyrodog> how d oI get to the room
[08:02] <tockitj> Rubin, http://www.pastebin.org/15925 # now i'll try this last one
[08:02] <Zloog> I think an update broke vlc, because it was working fine before the last set of patches
[08:02] <Extravert> bazhang: its a pretty bad problem http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=3830263
[08:02] <badkitty> Ellement: sudo cp /etc/X11/xorg.conf.1 /etc/X11/xorg.conf

[08:03] <DPic> Will there be any significant performance improvements for 8.04?
[08:03] <tvb> /part/
[08:03] <badkitty> DPic: Im pretty sure all new releases have significant improvements
[08:03] <tockitj> Rubin, great: Purging configuration files for compiz-core ... :-))
[08:03] <joot> jonysiguel, I tried and failed many times then got wifi radar and all came good
[08:04] <DPic> but i mean specifically performance improvements
[08:04] <Rubin> tockitj, ok then do the same for compiz-fusion-plugins-main and compiz-fusion-plugins-extra
[08:04] <tockitj> ok, just a sec
[08:04] <DPic> serious performance improvements
[08:05] <badkitty> DPic:  That I'm not sure.. there are articles on the net how to improve performance... depends on what you are doing as well
[08:05] <Ellement> badkitty: ok copied it, but now when i run aticonfig -- initial i get -> aticonfig: writting to '/etc/X11/xorg.conf' failed. ad file descriptor
[08:05] <bazhang> DPic: join #ubuntu+1 for that
[08:05] <tockitj> Rubin, dpkg - warning: ignoring request to remove compiz-fusion-plugins-main which isn't installed.
[08:05] <Rubin> tockitj, ok
[08:05] <Rubin> tockitj, do the -extra one, and if that isnt there, try apt-get remove compiz-core compiz-extra
[08:06] <Rubin> for safe measure
[08:06] <bazhang> Extravert: you running mythtv? tried the various fixes on that thread (of which there are several)?
[08:06] <badkitty> Ellement: Dunno .. buy an nvidia card??
[08:07] <Extravert> bazhang: I dont use that
[08:07] <badkitty> Ellement: After a while the opportunity cost of trying to get the ATI card to work is just not worth it when the nvidia card wil most likely be up and running before you can say 'ati shinanigans'
[08:07] <bazhang> Extravert: you have tried the fixes on that thread (of which there are several)?
[08:07]  * Rubin agrees. ati cards are shooting range targets
[08:07] <Ellement> badkitty: yeh. thanks for help tho :)
[08:07] <wenbo> i killed redhat wen i installed ubuntu,i think ubuntu is the best system.
[08:08] <Rubin> wenbo: its not hard to beat redhat :/
[08:08] <oddalot> ok, i got my monitor to do the correct 85hz...but it's all wobbly now, and flickering kinda
[08:08] <tockitj> Rubin, compiz-{core,extra} removed; apt-get still complains about dependencies (therefore apt-get remove does not work)
[08:08] <nano___> quick question, how do you run a script?
[08:08] <Rubin> oddalot, your monitor maybe can do it but not very well. try 75
[08:08] <joot> Ellement, I have a Ati card and it does does not work either
[08:08] <Extravert> bazhang: im doing the first fix
[08:08] <Rubin> nano___, depends.. but often you just type the path to it
[08:09] <nano___> Rubin: Ok thanks
[08:09] <badkitty> Ellement: Sorry, I never tried to get an ati card to work.. namely because I hated them since around 1997 when 3 of my friends had fault al-in-wonders ...  I'm running Gutsy off a livecd on an adjacent laptop and I'm having a bit of trouble. I need to install ms-sys, but sudo apt-get install ms-sys just says that it can't find the package. I'm sure the package exists, and other packages (like kcron) install fine. Any ideas?
[08:10] <Rubin> tockitj, er, sorry. apt-get -f install

[08:10] <dhq>  i have a problem i can ping sites i can download torrents login irc and im but i can surf what could be the problem
[08:10] <badkitty> paxsboy: Perhaps the reside in a repository that is not enabled?
[08:10] <paxsboy> badkitty: How might I find out if that's the case?
[08:10] <ObsidianX> anybody here use a broadcom wifi card?
[08:11] <Rubin> dhq: try posting that again after proofreading it :)
[08:11] <bazhang> paxsboy: you want to install stuff in the live cd?
[08:11] <paxsboy> bazhand: I want to use the program to repair a MBR.
[08:11] <paxsboy> bazhang*
[08:11] <badkitty> paxsboy: Google search for the package you want, it willl usually show what repositories you need to have (include 'ubuntu' in your search)
[08:11] <ObsidianX> specifically using the b43 or bcm43xx drivers?
[08:11] <ObsidianX> because they are NOT loading for me, ssb seems to block them or something
[08:12] <ObsidianX> cuz ssb grabs the pci device and b43/bcm43xx never load on boot
[08:12] <tockitj> Rubin, apt-get install -f is downloading new packages. output of last few commands: http://www.pastebin.org/15926
[08:12] <dhq>  i have a problem i can ping sites i can download torrents login irc and im but i cant surf what could be the problem
[08:12] <bazhang> paxsboy: never tried this--so ymmv--but you could try enabling the repository via synaptic and downloading in the livecd environment
[08:12] <ObsidianX> and i can't seem to find info on my specific problem ANYWHERE
[08:12] <paxsboy> badkitty: It's in "universal" and "admin." Is that what I'm looking for?
[08:12] <ObsidianX> its driving me mad

[08:12] <badkitty> dhq:  windows?
[08:13] <dhq> badkitty: ubuntu
[08:13] <badkitty> paxsboy: probably, you have to enable those
[08:13] <paxsboy> bazhang: I don't want to keep bugging you, so can you point me to a resource that might point me in the right direction for doing that?
[08:13] <joot> Obsidian, There is untold info at the ubuntu forums Search wireless or broadcom i think
[08:13] <Rubin> dhq: maybe dpkg -r compiz
[08:13] <Rubin> er
[08:13] <tockitj> rubin: done, http://www.pastebin.org/15928
[08:13] <oddalot> is there a way to find my monitors horizontal and vertical synch ranges without the manual?
[08:13] <Rubin> tockitj, ^^ that was for you
[08:13] <joot> ObsidianX, There is untold info at the ubuntu forums Search wireless or broadcom i think
[08:13] <tockitj> Rubin, is it ok that ubuntu-desktop is removed ?
[08:13] <Rubin> tockitj, oh, so your solved then?
[08:14] <Rubin> tockitj, its ok, but add it back now.
[08:14] <bazhang> paxsboy: not bugging me--I am out of here by choice :} enable the repos in synaptic and install the program ms-sys in component universe btw
[08:14] <tockitj> Rubin, i will, just a sec :-)
[08:14] <kr00l> How do i get the pre-installed torrent to show up in my Applications?
[08:14] <badkitty> dhq: Hmm thats odd. try a different browser?
[08:15] <bazhang> kr00l: which one is that? just bit torrent?
[08:15] <kr00l> bazhang: Correct
[08:16] <bazhang> kr00l: it should be there by default--you had to install it?
[08:16] <kr00l> bazhang: it is there but doesn't show up in Applications. I know you have to do something to show it
[08:17] <bazhang> kr00l: ah you want to edit the applications menu?
[08:17] <kr00l> bazhang: it's System > Pref > Main Menu
[08:18] <Rubin> tockitj, so what happened to you is, you had the official compiz stuff installed, and then you fdound that other compiz which provided many of the same files, but did not have conflict statements to force apt to replace it. so the two packages tried to put the same files in the same place and exploded.
[08:18] <paxsboy> Thanks very much all; this seems to have worked.
[08:19] <bazhang> kr00l: you want to move where it shows up?
[08:19] <kr00l> bazhang: I don't want to move it i just check the box and it shows up in Applications > Internet

[08:20] <hxu> Hi! Anyone how to configure ubuntu so it can have display signal on both outputs of my laptop?
[08:20] <Rubin> tockitj, you could, if you were really ballsy, try again by removing any official ubuntu compiz related packages and then installing that one instead. but it would be constantly risky since they have the same names..
[08:20] <fismoll8> when I try to install gtk-2.0 from source, it tells me that I am missing a host of other files
[08:20] <fismoll8> when I try to run sudo apt-get update and upgrade, nothing happens--synaptic doesn't update
[08:20] <Rubin> fismoll8, dont do that unless you really know what your doing.
[08:20] <bazhang> kr00l: I'm probably not the best person to ask as I use another client and am not on gnome sorry
[08:20] <tockitj> Rubin, is there a way to install compizconfig from official repos ?
[08:20] <Rubin> tockitj, its already there
[08:20] <Rubin> tockitj, i think..
[08:20] <fismoll8> well, do you know what is wrong rubin

[08:21] <Rubin> tockitj, maybe not, i dunno really my video card doesnt support it :)
[08:21] <z35> just wondering if there is anything like kickstart or autoyast for ubuntu/debian, the only thing i have found is fai, just wondering if there are any alternatives...
[08:21] <Rubin> porkpie, keeping it up?
[08:22] <porkpie> Rubin:yeah
[08:22] <Rubin> z35: for those of us who dont know what those are?
[08:22] <Rubin> porkpie, like a keepalive ping or something?
[08:22] <porkpie> Rubin:I vpn connection the I need to keep alive
[08:22] <z35> Rubin:  auto installation over network
[08:22] <bazhang> !info fai
[08:22] <ubotu> Package fai does not exist in gutsy

[08:23] <tockitj> Rubin, thanks alot for help :-)

[08:24] <hxu> This is the most populous distro channel I ever saw in freenode.net, but I net got my question solved here, nobody ever answered my question, not like gentoo channel, people in this channel are just ....
[08:24] <ZionPsyfer> porkpie: wvdial can be configured to redial when the connection is lost.
[08:24] <Rubin> hxu: if noone answeres, either they dont know, or your not asking effectively

[08:24] <hxu> I was never answered.
[08:24] <hxu> here.
[08:24] <porkpie> Rubin:not sure .... it's a radius server and I need to keep the VPN up for the AAA  the other sends updates every 2 mins so I don't think it's idle
[08:25] <Rubin> hxu: your question is a hard one, and you provided no details such as video card, or evidence of what you have tried so far.. since doing this is documented on the web
[08:25] <porkpie> Rubin:let me check the log
[08:25] <Rubin> porkpie, you cant really find a script to fix it if you dont know whats wrong
[08:25] <joot> porkpie, my two cents set your modem to stupid mode it will not drop so often
[08:26] <darkblue_B> I have two internal drives, partioned similarly. Last November I instaled/copied my setup over to the 2nd drive. I just restarted my *remote* machine, and it booted on the old drive. Is there a way I can control which drive starts, remotely?
[08:26] <porkpie> joot:it's not a modem  ....
[08:26] <bazhang> hxu: external lcd connected to laptop? what video card what are you trying to do--please be precise and maybe a little nicer--honey catches more flies than vinegar you know :}
[08:26] <joot> porkpie, Gaa sorrrry
[08:26] <hxu> no, a projector
[08:27] <Rubin> darkblue_B, kinda. you can put them both in grub, and modify grub before rebooting
[08:27] <darkblue_B> modify grub? in what way?
[08:27] <tockitj> bazhang, ccsm not found: http://www.pastebin.org/15929
[08:27] <Rubin> darkblue_B, change the default boot partition..
[08:27] <bazhang> hxu: be precise--what are you trying to do
[08:27] <darkblue_B> can I read about modfying grub from the shell?
[08:27] <z35> it seems that i can use kickstart, if desired (not really), or preseed and pxe... which i might end up doing, i'll read up on preseed...
[08:27] <bazhang> tockitj: you have enabled the necessary repos in synaptic?
[08:28] <hxu> I'm using a HP laptop, nx6325, with an ATI Raedeon xPress integrated card
[08:28] <Rubin> darkblue_B, man grub maybe. but its complicated...
[08:28] <darkblue_B> uh huh
[08:28] <bazhang> hxu: what are you trying to do
[08:28] <hxu> I can not have projector work with my ubuntu 7.10
[08:28] <hxu> the projector just show nothing
[08:29] <bazhang> hxu: with the scarcity of details in your question--not sure how to help you
[08:29] <tockitj> bazhang, offical ones are enabled -- i think it can be checked in apt-get output (http://www.pastebin.org/15929)
[08:29] <paxsboy> Oh, wow. Well, the MBR is now repaired, but on bootup I'm getting "Invalid Partition Table." That scares me.
[08:30] <paxsboy> I had hoped to save some of the data on the drive.
[08:30] <hxu> bazhang: I can not switch display signal to the projector, laptop is HP nx6325, os is Ubuntu 7.10, card is ATI Raedeon xPress.
[08:30] <bazhang> tockitj: try this: in terminal type apt-cache search compiz and see if that package is among (the many) ones showing up in the list
[08:30] <hxu> bazhang: What else do you need to know?
[08:30] <porkpie> Rubin:here is the problem LCP: timeout sending Config-Requests
[08:31] <bazhang> hxu: and how have you tried to switch the signal to the projector?
[08:31] <paxsboy> Does freenode have a #ohgodmyharddriveexploded equivalent?
[08:31] <tockitj> bazhang, main, universe, multiverse, restricted are all enabled -- i'll try apt-cache, just a sec
[08:31] <bazhang> paxsboy: the next best alternative is #ubuntu-offtopic :}
[08:31] <hxu> bazhang: use the "fn" key and the display-switching key of the laptop keyborad.
[08:31] <Rubin> hxu: http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-352750.html
[08:32] <paxsboy> bazhang: Copy that.

[08:54] <gaurish> Narissa, try removing Option "AddARGBVisuals"  & Option "AddARGBGLXVisuals from xorg.conf in Section "Device"
[08:54] <_sidd> BloodyScum: Yes... I'm having problems with eclipse... seems like the most recent xserver update doesn't seem to work with java (graphical apps).
[08:55] <gabrialm> ok so ive been trolling the ubuntuforums for months, let it go for awhile and thought id give it another go. i cannot for the life of me get fglrx functional. ive used just about every known method i can find through the forums and google. does anyone know any tricks?
[08:55] <BloodyScum> _sidd is there a way to roll baxk the xserver update untill this is fixed?
[08:56] <Narissa> gaurish: alright restarting X
[08:56] <_sidd> BloodyScum: I am looking to do exactly that... looking at some forums right now...
[08:56] <_sidd> BloodyScum: Let me know if you find anything.
[08:56] <bullgard4> What is the purpose or function of /dev/dsp?
[08:56] <BloodyScum> _sidd ok, you to
[08:57] <gabrialm> anyone have experience with fglrx?
[08:57] <W_McL> BloodyScum, I also got this error after the xserver update wen i'm trying to start eclipse
[08:57] <FuTz> does anyone know where to get packages for offline installation?
[08:57] <_sidd> BloodyScum: There is a way to install a specific version of a package with apt-get... but I don't know what the previous version of the xserver.
[08:57] <kackobacko> eval $(echo 512-5324 | tr 41352 '~mfr ')
[08:57] <Narissa> gaurish: no dice still kicks me back to login,
[08:58] <W_McL> sadly that's not the first time when a xserver update was broken :(
[08:58] <_sidd> W_McL, BloodyScum: do you know if anyone has created a bugreport on lauchpad?
[08:58] <BloodyScum> _sidd W_McL no i dont, and is there an update log?
[08:58] <W_McL> _sidd, I didn't check yet, was busy searching forums for a solution
[09:00] <W_McL> https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xorg-server/+bug/183969
[09:00] <W_McL> the error looks the same to me
[09:00] <_sidd> W_McL: Since the update was recent, I doubt there's a solution out there for this yet... I think the only to do for now is to revert back to the previous version...
[09:00] <gaurish> Narissa,lol, try reconfiguring your display by " dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg", i am running of idea here
[09:01] <_sidd> W_McL: Yes... that's the error I get. Looks like this was posted 6 minutes ago.
[09:01] <gabrialm> hrm
[09:01] <XiXaQ> What's the difference between "aptitude install ubuntu-desktop" and "tasksel install ubuntu-desktop"?
[09:01] <BloodyScum> W_McL: _sidd yeah thats the one
[09:01] <gabrialm> i think perhaps ill just circumvent this whole dilema. throw my x1300 into my winbox and grab an nvidia for my linux
[09:01] <gabrialm> this is frustrating
[09:02] <Deeky> Anyone has solution to RAID1 bug  in GUTSY?

[09:03] <XiXaQ> Deeky, you have to provide a URL to it, otherwise it's impossible to know what you're talking about.
[09:03] <Narissa> gaurish: brb restarting
[09:03] <Deeky> wait
[09:03] <BoltClock> but i cant get ubuntu to start
[09:03] <dakilla> hi every one
[09:03] <BloodyScum> W_McL _sidd: ok, but i think the number code might depend on the program

[09:07] <BoltClock> i cant get my live CD to boot gutsy
[09:07] <Narissa> I was required to reinstall the restricted drivers and wala
[09:07] <Deeky> It is actually posted on launchpad.net. But I believe there is still no correct patch for this bug

[09:07] <Narissa> tyvm now onto runescape
[09:07] <BoltClock> unless i use safe graphics mode. if i try the normal way, ubuntu leaves four lines and stops doing anything
[09:07] <zulfiqar> how do i install icon sets downloaded form gnome-look.org?
[09:08] <XiXaQ> Deeky, then the problem isn't fixed. Nobody has any idea which bug you're talking about.
[09:08] <zachary> man ubuntu rules when you get the stuff you want working :D
[09:08] <misslecommander> i forgot my runscape pw lol

[09:08] <Deeky> But have you used RAID 1, XiXaQ?
[09:09] <XiXaQ> Deeky, and nobody knows which version of ubuntu you're running either, which makes it very difficult to give a good response.

[09:09] <XiXaQ> Deeky, I've been trying to tell you; if you want a good answer, you must ask a good question.
[09:09] <VvWolverinevV> hi, im trying to reinstall GRUB after windows wiped it out, but im not sure which drivepartition to intall it on, can someone help?
[09:09] <BloodyScum> somthing like  "sudo apt-get install xserver-xorg-core <IP_ADDRESS>.dfsg-12ubuntu8"?
[09:10] <ironeye> does this program need to be written to a cd before installin?
[09:10] <rsp2k> how do I convert an ubuntu server install to a mythbuntu install? installing mythbuntu-desktop doesn't install everything I would have if I installed from the mythbuntu cd. is there some other meta packeage for each variant (xubuntu/kubuntu...)

[09:11] <BloodyScum> _sidd W_McL: well maybe we can find the package without apt-get

[09:12] <kaboombob> kane77 how do i get cinelerra
[09:12] <dgjones> ironeye, the other advantage is that it lets you try your hardware with it before you install
[09:12] <Deeky> I setup RAID 1 on my 2 harddisk, I installed Gusty Gibbon Server edition. There was no problem. But when I tried to boot using only one harddisk, it won't boot. Any help?
[09:12] <misslecommander> click on that link wolverine
[09:12] <_sidd> BloodyScum: Good idea.
[09:13] <bazhang> kaboombob: install it
[09:13] <kaboombob> kane77 for some reason deb isnt working for me
[09:13] <kaboombob> hows it goin bazhang
[09:13] <bazhang> heya
[09:13] <misslecommander> Deeky: you put the swap or ohter mounted partitions on the second drive ?
[09:13] <misslecommander> its my understanding that if you will be removing a drive, first unmount it in linux, then shutdown, and remove it
[09:14] <jason__> E: dpkg was interrupted, you must manually run 'dpkg --configure -a' to correct the problem.
[09:14] <jason__>  how can i fix this
[09:14] <misslecommander> but i am noob, so you may want to ask the vetz
[09:14] <Deeky> md0 = /boot, md1 = swap, md2 = /
[09:14] <gaurish> Deeky, thats becuase when HDD are are in RAID, to the os they are seen as a single HDD
[09:14] <misslecommander> if it says ubuntu.com i can be pretty sure it will work, or it is the suggested way
[09:14] <n2diy> jason__: run the command?
[09:15] <misslecommander> guarish: youre prob right, but it depends on what mode raid was put in, either way it isnt good to remove from a raid system
[09:15] <jason__> what do i od though
[09:15] <BoltClock> is anyone free now to try and assist me with my issue?
[09:15] <Deeky> But, arent RAID1 supposed to run even when 1 harddisk fail? It is a mirroring array.
[09:15] <misslecommander> depends on mode u created the array with
[09:15] <gaurish> Deeky, thats depends you setup

[09:19] <ironeye> will copying the .iso files to my usb dongle work ?
[09:19] <BloodyScum> W_McL _sidd: nice work
[09:20] <gaurish> misslecommander, all package mgt works are done by apt, read the link given by ubotu got for info
[09:20] <kondor1011> ironeye, my guess is no, most dongles are fat 16 or 32
[09:20] <_sidd> BloodyScum: Yea... now to check if that worked... see you in a bit.

[09:21] <bmt2> does handbrake copy the whole DVD or just the part of the DVD that has the movie on it ?
[09:21] <misslecommander> i see and used the apt-get before
[09:21] <kaboombob> its ok tho i got it fixed
[09:22] <nocturn> My company would like to become an Ubuntu partner, there's a link to apply on the canonical website, but I would first like to have a chat with someone from Canonical on this.  Any idea who to contact (and how)?
[09:22] <abhi_> hey i can't find the db_stat utility on Gutsy
[09:22] <abhi_> why?
[09:22] <misslecommander> !contact
[09:22] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about contact - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[09:22] <gaurish> kaboombob, maybe i didn't read it, say again please in detail & from start
[09:22] <kondor1011> brnt2, sorry  i just joined, but it sounds like k9copy might be the sort of thing your talking about
[09:23] <abhi_> !db_stat
[09:23] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about db_stat - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[09:23] <bmt2> kondor1011: ok does k9copy do the whole DVD or just the part that has the whole movie....largest file on the DVD ?
[09:23] <kaboombob> this was the error deb command not found
[09:23] <kaboombob> gaurish i got it fixed tho
[09:23] <kondor1011> brnt2, have you ever used dvd-shrink?
[09:24] <misslecommander> gaurish: if i use apt like >> apt-cache search foo it will search through the ones i chose to "download only" ?
[09:24] <gaurish> nocturn, hello, this will help ==> http://www.ubuntu.com/partners
[09:24] <BoltClock> is anyone free to help me with my issue? my windows xp pro sp2 is running fine on my very new computer and i want to install gutsy - but the live cd cant boot it unless i choose safe graphics mode. trying the normal way of starting, it just prints four lines and stops
[09:24] <misslecommander> i picked ones that i wasnt sure i wanted yet, but i chose to download only
[09:24] <BloodyScum> _sidd u here?
[09:24] <misslecommander> using apt-cache search foo search them too ?
[09:25] <misslecommander> foo in place of search item
[09:25] <deniz_> can sum1 help me find libmp3lame.so.0?
[09:25] <dgjones> nocturn, you might get an answer to that in #ubuntu-marketing, that might be a better place to ask
[09:25] <kondor1011> brnt2, k9copy is about as close to dvdshrink as you can get, it lets you chose which bits you want.  all or just main movie, subs languages ect.  sound like what you want?
[09:25] <gaurish> misslecommander, try man apt
[09:25] <misslecommander> ok
[09:25] <kaboombob> deniz_ what did you need it for?
[09:25] <gaurish> Bollinger, who much memory is there?
[09:25] <gaurish> how*
[09:25] <zulfiqar> how do i install icon sets downloaded form gnome-look.org?
[09:26] <deniz_> kaboombob, i want to export mp3's in audacity so that i can compress my songs to 64 kbps
[09:26] <kondor1011> boltclock, the obvious is to say try 6.06
[09:27] <misslecommander> i foudn "lame" in Synaptic Package Manager, you looking to work with mp3 ?
[09:27] <BoltClock> ... why such an old release?
[09:27] <misslecommander> i used it before, Gwave used it
[09:27] <jason__> is this bad for glgears 6488 frames in 5.0 seconds = 1297.318 FPS
[09:27] <nhorning> hey there
[09:27] <nhorning> whose helping?
[09:27] <gaurish> deniz_, use Synaptic to install new software, else you will face dependency hell
[09:27] <misslecommander> Lame is a program which can be used to create compressed audio files.
[09:27] <kondor1011> boltclock, i know what your saying. but i suppose the answer would be, why not?
[09:27] <_sidd> BloodyScum, W_McL: Phew! It works... good to have eclipse working again.
[09:28] <deniz_> gaurish, i used terminal so its same
[09:28] <nhorning> help, I cannot get my canon ip1800 to work
[09:28] <deniz_> gaurish, its just that audacity needs this
[09:28] <nhorning> are there any ways to do it in 64 bit?
[09:28] <BloodyScum> _sidd W_McL: yeah it worked, nice job
[09:28] <gaurish> deniz_, you use apt-get or dpkg?
[09:28] <jason__> is this bad for an i845g/gl onboard chipset graphics
[09:28] <deniz_> gaurish, apt-get
[09:28] <kondor1011> the fact is, 6.06 has a big advantage if your having problems with 7.10.  It has a big history of fixes on the threads for one thing
[09:28] <jason__> 6488 frames in 5.0 seconds = 1297.318 FPS
[09:28] <W_McL> _sidd, BloodyScum: also got it working again :)

[09:31] <deniz_> kaboombob, but im there graphically and dont see any libmp3lame.so.0

[09:33] <deniz_> kaboombob, k, i have dial-up so this'll take a wile and thx, hopefully itll work, i have to study for a biology exam so by
[09:33] <BoltClock> is anyone free to help me with my issue? my windows xp pro sp2 is running fine on my very new computer and i want to install gutsy - but the live cd cant boot it unless i choose safe graphics mode. trying the normal way of starting, it just prints four lines and stops
[09:33] <BoltClock> hate to repeat it but... ><
[09:34] <kaboombob> deniz_ i can copy its contents to a pastebin if you want me to
[09:34] <gaurish> BoltClock, what amount of RAM you have?
[09:34] <deniz_> kaboombob, i checked the to be installed  files
[09:34] <BoltClock> 4 GB
[09:34] <deniz_> kaboombob, it doesnt have the exact file
[09:34] <deniz_> kaboombob, but maybe lame thing does
[09:34] <deniz_> kaboombob, unless im seeing things
[09:35] <gaurish> BoltClock, and whats display card?
[09:35] <kaboombob> deniz_ i know i have it on my comp but i cant open it to copy it for you
[09:35] <jason__> bolt run it in safe graphice mode to install
[09:35] <kaboombob> deniz_ i may be able to email it to you
[09:35] <BoltClock> gaurish: its an onboard NVIDIA GeForce7100
[09:35] <dgjones> BoltClock, sounds like an issue with the graphics card, what card do you have, its its very new, you might have to start in safe graphics because the livecd image doesn't have your card as a basic option, but normally once installed, you can update the driver to get normal graphics
[09:35] <jason__> the reconfigur ur x sever after installed
[09:35] <deniz_> ok, so gamingtechnology at
[09:35] <deniz_> yahoo.ca
[09:36] <gaurish> BoltClock, then use safe gfx mode & install :)
[09:36] <jason__> and bolt get evny when u get it in stalled and it find the right driver for the nvidia
[09:36] <BoltClock> jason__: get what?
[09:36] <dgjones> !envy | jason__
[09:36] <ubotu> jason__: envy is not needed or supported. Use the Resticted Manager to install binary drivers and see « /msg ubotu binarydriver »
[09:36] <BoltClock> envy?
[09:36] <deniz_> kaboombob, did u get that?
[09:36] <NineTeen67Comet> Hi all .. I've got a ssh question .. I have a computer that is behind a second router (fiber>wireless>vonage Linksys>Ubuntu Box) the router it is behind is <IP_ADDRESS> and the box is <IP_ADDRESS> (the rest of my network is 192.168.0.* stuff).
[09:36] <CyberWorld> you will prolly have to install a restriced nvidia or ati driver after install
[09:36] <NineTeen67Comet> can I get to it via ssh still?
[09:36] <misslecommander> guarish: you can string together packages like this, and they all get downloaded and installed ? >  sudo apt-get install ardour-gtk hydrogen jackd jack-rack qjackctl seq24 vkeybd zynaddsubfx patchage vlc kino pitivi acidrip ubuntu-restricted-extras
[09:37] <jason__> envy bolt its good
[09:37] <BoltClock> also... in safe gfx mode, my monitor doesnt seem to cope well since it flickers like mad when scrolling or dragging windows
[09:37] <jason__> it works
[09:37] <jason__> i have used it with the Ultim ubuntu
[09:37] <BoltClock> what does it do?
[09:37] <paxsboy> Does anyone know of something like ms-sys that can handle HPFS/NTFS MBRs?
[09:37] <dgjones> envy isn't recommended because it causes problems with updates
[09:37] <BoltClock> problems :O
[09:38] <jason__> it installs drivers for ur graphic
[09:38] <kaboombob> deniz_ yeah i did give me a sec and ill send it to you
[09:38] <kaboombob> deniz_ i have another one that has a couple of extra.0's at the end i attached that one to
[09:38] <gaurish> BoltClock, just install ubuntu & then solve your gfx problems
[09:38] <deniz_> kaboombob, k, thx alot
[09:38]  * NineTeen67Comet the majority of things available to help install stuff is not approved by Ubuntu .. (automatix, envy and install.sh) ..
[09:38] <deniz_> kaboombob, k
[09:38] <jason__> it didnt cause any problems on my other system
[09:38] <jsemmanuel> are there any applications to open pagemaker files?
[09:38] <jsemmanuel> ..on ubuntu?
[09:39] <dgjones> BoltClock, once you've got it installed, you'll get an option to use the restricted driver, you can select that and it should install the correct driver for your card
[09:39] <NineTeen67Comet> jsemmanuel: try scribus . and google for Linux Windows equivalents ..
[09:39] <gaurish> NineTeen67Comet, thanks because they are known to break installs
[09:40] <BoltClock> gaurish: ok. i have two disks: a 250 gb where windows is installed and an unused 320 gb that i cant get ubuntu or windows to see, only my bios detects it fine. how do you recommend i install?
[09:40] <NineTeen67Comet> gaurish: lol .. I am known to break installs .. heheehh .. I used to be the re-install king ..
[09:40] <BoltClock> dgjones: alright, ill take note of that
[09:40] <asc> I would like to create a  customized menu bar, in which, for example, I get to chose the names and number of menus instead of being forced to use applications/places/system. However, I don't see options for this under 'edit menus' when right-clicking on the menu applet. Does anybody know how to do this?
[09:40] <jsemmanuel> no apps open .pmd files
[09:40] <gaurish> NineTeen67Comet, i have a term for you "Windows weenies" :p
[09:40] <deniz_> kaboombob, i got them
[09:41] <jsemmanuel> :-(
[09:41] <jsemmanuel> :-(
[09:41] <elkbuntu> NineTeen67Comet, that's no reason to tell newbies to do it.. .they blame the breakage on ubuntu, not the scripts, then give up and run screaming back to windows
[09:41] <deniz_> kaboombob, k, thx once again and i seriously have to go cuz im such a last minute study person
[09:41] <kaboombob> deniz_ wasthat all you needed?
[09:41] <deniz_> kaboombob, ya
[09:41] <kaboombob> laters then im out to
[09:41] <gaurish> BoltClock, how do you know that your 320gb hdd is not detected by ubuntu?
[09:41] <NineTeen67Comet> gaurish: I don't have an MS box in my house .. When I was new I didn't know how to fix stuff via chroot .. so I just did re-installs .. now, I'm usually only re-installing when I blow up my hard drive or something ..
[09:42] <BoltClock> gaurish: wait, i might have seen it wrongly, ill connect to this channel again once i start ubuntu via live cd, brb
[09:42] <n2diy> BoltClock: that is a very small hard drive for linuk
[09:42] <ubuntujay123> bolt i was wrong dont use envy ok
[09:42] <ubuntujay123> sorry
[09:42] <NineTeen67Comet> elkbuntu: No I wasn't saying to use those things, I was just saying they aren't accepted here .. mainly because it is hard to trace where something went wrong ..
[09:42] <n2diy> *linuk/linuk
[09:42] <nikken> does anyone know how to spawn a new child from wifi0 (master)?
[09:42] <n2diy> nevermind
[09:42] <ubuntujay123> i only have a 40 g hd it runs fine
[09:43] <gaurish> NineTeen67Comet, re-installing does not help, as you don't know what the problem was & if by chance next time it comes, then again you have to install again, and you will fall in endless loop.
[09:44] <Sharpie> for some reason azureus fails to start (worked like 5 minutes ago). when ran from console it gives a 'BadAlloc' error. reinstalling didn't work, and neither did deleting the .azureus dir
[09:44] <NineTeen67Comet> gaurish: exactly .. When I teach classes with Linux in them I usually can save what ever the students do now .. The usuall is a broken xorg.conf or malformed fstab . but usually its not a big problem ..
[09:44] <CyberWorld> I don't have the laptop here but I have a linux dell 1420N laptop.  Anyways I'm trying to capture the wireless device file /dev/?  it's not /dev/wlan0 .  Anyone know what it would be or a command or file where the name is stored in ubuntu 7.10?
[09:45] <gaurish> Sharpie, join official support channel of Azureus  #azureus-support
[09:45] <Kalamansi> hello guys..is it okay to use a server with 38 users who shares the internet connection speed of 2.2mbps? where half of 38 is doing some updaloding a kilobytes files while half of 38 are doing surfing?
[09:46] <gaurish> CyberWorld, i didn't get what you want to do?
[09:46] <CyberWorld> use a program to capture wifi activity
[09:46] <n2diy> CyberWorld: lshw?
[09:47] <gaurish> CyberWorld, network-manager applet
[09:47] <nikken> anyone? -> <nikken> does anyone know how to spawn a new child from wifi0 (master)?
[09:47] <CyberWorld> ok I will try that
[09:48] <CyberWorld> loaned it out to my mother since her laptop is so slow
[09:49] <CyberWorld> those dell linux computers really run ubuntu well without any hardware trouble
[09:49] <jaw^vovoid> we run ubuntu on Dell optiplex 330 machines at work, works great
[09:49] <misslecommander> if i select HDPARM in services, will i have to manually edit hdparm.conf ?
[09:50] <CyberWorld> yeah there n series is neat
[09:50] <bobslaede> Is it possible to complete disable my wireless card? I cannot do this in the bios on this laptop. And removing the module (bcm43xx) freezes the laptop

[09:53] <gaurish> BoltClock, ok go on install it, the known problem during install are: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/CommonProblemsInstall
[09:53] <astro76> zackie: actually for most everything you can use synaptic or apt-get
[09:53] <astro76> !synaptic | zackie
[09:53] <ubotu> zackie: synaptic is Ubuntu's Graphical Package Manager. For a good howto see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SynapticHowto
[09:53] <misslecommander> astro76: hdparm in services, that need manual edit of hdparm.conf ?
[09:53] <zackie> astro76___What is apt-get?
[09:53] <bobslaede> joot: thanks, apparently one of my cpus are totaly out of control, and i have narrowed it down to the wireless card
[09:53] <kaboombob> i have a problem with broken packages and to fix it one overwrites it and its a big complicated mess heres the pastebin of the error plz help http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/52386/
[09:54] <astro76> misslecommander: yes

[09:54] <misslecommander> astro76: thank you
[09:54] <VvWolverinevV_> hi, im trying to reinstall grub after windows wiped it out, the documentation says to install it on the main partition as well as the boot partition, but is it possible i don't have a boot partition?
[09:54] <astro76> zackie: start with synaptic first ;) apt-get is command line
[09:54] <kaboombob> !apt | zackie
[09:54] <ubotu> zackie: APT is the Advanced Package Tool, which together with dpkg forms the basic Ubuntu package management toolkit. Short apt-get manual: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AptGetHowto - Also see !Synaptic (Gnome) or !Adept (KDE)

[09:54] <Sterling> Im trying to install Ubuntu and need someone to talk me through it
[09:54] <BoltClock> im on the Prepare disk space screen
[09:55] <Sterling> Having multiple errors
[09:55] <BoltClock> and ok it seems i made a mistake there
[09:55] <joot> bobslaede, So did you blacklist bcm43xx??
[09:55] <BoltClock> yes ubuntu recognizes the 320 gb disk
[09:55] <bobslaede> joot: just trying to figure out how. If i just remove the module, the laptop freezes.. :/
[09:55] <BoltClock> since its never been used, ill go for Guided - use entire disk, right?
[09:56] <kaboombob> i have a problem with broken packages and to fix it one overwrites another and causes an error plz help http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/52386/
[09:56] <Sterling> No... I need to set it to a partition.
[09:56] <inertial> how do set ubuntu to display on my TV from my laptop using a vga port? do i have to mess around with xorg.conf?
[09:56] <gaurish> BoltClock, is there any data in that disk?
[09:56] <BoltClock> nothing at all
[09:56] <Sterling> I try to go set it to a partition and no matter what I do I get this error....  No root file system is defined.
[09:56] <Sterling> Please correct this from the partitioning menu
[09:56] <BoltClock> ive never touched it since i bought the pc
[09:56] <astro76> Sterling: set what to a partition?
[09:56] <Sterling> TO install Ubuntu
[09:57] <gaurish> BoltClock, then go ahead , as this option erases all data on disk :)
[09:57] <Sterling> I got windows on the other partition and my parents want to use it
[09:57] <Sterling> So I can't overwrite it.
[09:57] <Oceanlab> goodmorning guys
[09:57] <bobslaede> joot: apparently its easy, /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist :)
[09:57] <joot> bobslaede, there is a lot on bcm43xx at ubuntu forums they can be a real pita
[09:57] <BoltClock> i havent been as excited as now
[09:57] <astro76> Sterling: have you resized it yet?
[09:57] <bobslaede> joot: alright, i'll read up on it :)
[09:57] <joot> bobslaede, coool
[09:57] <BoltClock> later after installing i just need to download drivers for various things and im good to go?
[09:57] <bobslaede> joot: i dont need the wireless card, so its just a pain in the donkey
[09:58] <Sterling> ? I told it to delete the old second partition, then told it to USE AS : ext3
[09:58] <Sterling> and told the second box /boot
[09:58] <bobslaede> well.. .rebooting :)
[09:58] <Sterling> MOunt POint
[09:58] <kaboombob> i have a problem with broken packages and to fix it one overwrites another and causes an error plz help http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/52386/
[09:58] <tim168> any experiences good or bad with ubuntu on Thinkpad T61 ?
[09:59] <astro76> Sterling: no you need a / mount point, and a swap partition... one easy way to do this is to just delete this second partition, and then just select "use the largest continuous free space"
[09:59] <inertial> nobody has any suggestions for doing vga out on my laptop?
[09:59] <Oceanlab> is there someone who speaks Italian?
[09:59] <Sterling> But the largest is the other partition....
[09:59] <BoltClock> im at the summary screen looking at Advanced... what does the boot loader do?
[09:59] <astro76> !it | Oceanlab
[09:59] <ubotu> Oceanlab: Vai su #ubuntu-it o su #kubuntu-it se vuoi parlare in italiano, in questo canale usiamo solo l'inglese. Grazie!
[09:59] <n2diy> inertial: to a TV?
[09:59] <gaurish> BoltClock, not necessary , all most all drivers are installed by default, a few are they which are not open source so they are not installed by default
[09:59] <inertial> n2diy: yeah
[10:00] <inertial> n2diy: do i have to mess aroudn with xorg conf manually?
[10:00] <VvWolverinevV_> im trying to reinstall grub after windows wiped it out and i get "unable to execute /usr/sbin/grub-install: Input/output error", anyone know why?
[10:00] <n2diy> inertial: PAL or NTS?
[10:00] <gaurish> BoltClock, The boot loader would then read the operating system in from an outside storage
[10:00] <inertial> n2diy: pal
[10:00] <didar> kaboombob: that looks like a packaging bug
[10:00] <astro76> Sterling: you know I'm not really familiar with the automatic partitioning options in the installer...
[10:00] <BoltClock> gaurish: do i need it?
[10:00] <kaboombob> didar any ideas how to fix it?
[10:00] <Oceanlab> thanks so many ubotu
[10:00] <BoltClock> its checked by default
[10:00] <Oceanlab> goodbye
[10:00] <astro76> Sterling: but what you need is to set the mount point to /, and you also need a small swap partition
[10:00] <Sterling> ...
[10:01] <n2diy> inertial: Sorry, I don't know.
[10:01] <ubuntu_> hi
[10:01] <didar> kaboombob: not really... possibly you could un-install mpeg3-utils package
[10:01] <Jay-Oh-En> is there a list of processes that dont need to be started on startup?
[10:01] <joot> bobslaede, you back up yet
[10:01] <Sterling> What is a swap partition?
[10:01] <inertial> n2diy: it's different for nts?
[10:01] <Jay-Oh-En> !startup
[10:01] <bobslaede> joot: yeah, just checking
[10:01] <gaurish> BoltClock, yes off course unless you don't plan to use your OS :p
[10:01] <ubotu> To add programs to start up when you log into your Gnome session go to System>Preferences>Sessions and use the Startup Programs tab. For more information, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AddingProgramToSessionStartup - See !boot for starting non-interactive programs at boot
[10:01] <ubuntu_> i am trying to make a csh script
[10:01] <astro76> !swap | Sterling
[10:01] <ubotu> Sterling: swap is used to move unused programs and data out of main memory to make your system faster. It can also be used as extra memory if you don't have enough. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SwapFaq for more info
[10:01] <kaboombob> didar it says i have broken packages and trys to instlal them first then gives me the error
[10:01] <Sterling> How do I create one?
[10:01] <bobslaede> joot: so far, nothing out of control :)
[10:01] <n2diy> inertial: Yes, the scan rates are different.
[10:01] <ubuntu_> i want this script to ask for two numbers and then to add them
[10:02] <didar> kaboombob: apt-get remove mpeg3-utils
[10:02] <inertial> it's a shame there's no graphical way to configure dual monitors and suchlike
[10:02] <Jay-Oh-En> how do i make my num lock turn on during boot cause i hate having to turn it on
[10:02] <joot> bobslaede, yeah you can put that as a win yes??:-))
[10:02] <didar> kaboombob: followed by apt-get install libmpeg3hv
[10:02] <Sterling> and approximentlay how big should it be if I only have 20000 MB
[10:02] <bobslaede> joot: module not loaded, ksoftirq/1 not going wild
[10:02] <sarah> hmm update manager is frozen should i killall it
[10:02] <bobslaede> joot: yup, thats a win :D
[10:02] <inertial> n2diy: i have the manual for the tv so i know the scan rates
[10:02] <astro76> Sterling: you can use gparted, from the ubuntu livecd system > admin > partition editor, or there's a gparted livecd
[10:02] <nhorning> hey, if I have the source for a 32 bit printer driver, can I compile it in 64 bit?
[10:02] <Sterling> If ifugred out how to do it...
[10:03] <Sterling> I'm just wondering.... what is the recommended size for 20000 MB total free?
[10:03] <n2diy> inertial: but they don't work in xorg-config?
[10:03] <BoltClock> well... here goes
[10:03] <astro76> Sterling: like I said, I think if you delete the second partition, there's an option to install automatically into that unallocated space, maybe someone can verify that
[10:03] <BoltClock> installing!
[10:03] <bobslaede> joot: thanks!
[10:03] <astro76> Sterling: you mean 2GB?
[10:03] <Sterling> roughly 20 gigs
[10:03] <joot> bobslaede, didnt do much just forgot a command hee
[10:04] <inertial> anyone know if there's a program like aticonfig but for the intel laptop graphics cards?
[10:04] <astro76> Sterling: oh I thought you meant RAM because that is what swap relates too, you can get away with 256-512 MB
[10:04] <BoltClock> ok wait i just realized that i forgot to back up my data -_-
[10:05] <bobslaede> joot: hehe, thanks anyhow :)
[10:05] <BoltClock> is it unlikely for data on my 250 gb disk to be affected at all if anything goes wrong here?
[10:05] <Sterling> okay
[10:05] <inertial> n2diy: what package is xorg-config part of?
[10:05] <Sterling> thanks
[10:05] <gaurish> BoltClock, lol, it depends how to setup the installer, now don't stop it, else surely you will lose data
[10:05] <Sterling> I think I figured it out lol
[10:06] <n2diy> inertial: don't know, Synaptic will tell you.
[10:06] <VvWolverinevV_> im trying to reinstall grub after windows wiped it out and i get "unable to execute /usr/sbin/grub-install: Input/output error", anyone know why?
[10:06] <kaboombob> didar http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/52387/
[10:06] <astro76> BoltClock: so you have a second disk with data?
[10:06] <joot> inertial, ati drivers
[10:06] <BoltClock> astro76: yes, where windows lives in
[10:06] <gaurish> !grub | VvWolverinevV_,
[10:06] <ubotu> VvWolverinevV_,: grub is the default Ubuntu boot manager. Lost grub after installing windows: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows - Making GRUB floppies & other GRUB howtos: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto
[10:06] <astro76> BoltClock: it's unlikely you'll lose your data, but you should always have backups
[10:07] <dgjones> BoltClock, if you're installing Ubuntu on a second hard drive and not your windows drive, you shouldn't have a problem
[10:07] <Sterling> If I do use the largest free space, could that overwrite part of my 50 GB partition?
[10:07] <Sterling> if it has 25 Gigs free?
[10:07] <VvWolverinevV_> gaurish: that guide doesn't answer my question i have read it
[10:07] <BoltClock> astro76: ill do just that as soon as im done with ubuntu today
[10:07] <zackie> Now that i have Downloaded Songbird_0.4_linux-i686.tar.gz how do i go about making it a usable application?
[10:07] <didar> kaboombob: is that a "|" character ?
[10:07] <BoltClock> dgjones: im confident my data will be safe
[10:08] <kaboombob> didar yes
[10:08] <BoltClock> 60% installed
[10:08] <gaurish> VvWolverinevV_, where are you stuck?
[10:08] <hansjd> what is the command prompt called in linux :S
[10:08] <kaboombob> hansjd terminal
[10:08] <inertial> it's funny.. when i was young i had time for all the DIY linux distros
[10:08] <n2diy> hansjd: CLI, or the command line interface.
[10:08] <joot> hansjd,terminal
[10:08] <didar> kaboombob: I believe you meant "||" rather than "|"
[10:08] <gaurish> !terminal | hansjd
[10:08] <ubotu> hansjd: The linux terminal or command-line interface is very powerful. Open a terminal via Applications -> Accessories -> Terminal (Gnome) or K-menu -> System -> Konsole (KDE).  Guide: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UsingTheTerminal
[10:08] <didar> kaboombob: single "|" makes a command line pipe
[10:08] <astro76> zackie: did you see the installation script on this page I linked earlier? https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Songbird
[10:09] <VvWolverinevV_> gaurish: i have the partition mounted, but i get an I/O error when i try to run "sudo grub-install --root-directory=/mnt/root /dev/sda"
[10:09] <hansjd> kaboombob: how do i get to the terminal, and edit a txt file from the terminal?
[10:09] <didar> kaboombob: whereas "||" makes an OR
[10:09] <Sterling> If I do guided install f largest free space, could that overwrite part of my 50 GB partition, it has 25 Gigs free, while my second partition is 18.6 gigs
[10:09] <zackie> astro76___Yes i did that but it was the old version
[10:09] <kaboombob> didar still no working
[10:09] <hansjd> oh... and get back to the session
[10:09] <tehk> Does anyone know if there is anyway to create a keybinding for copy/paste using Super-C/V?
[10:09] <n2diy> hansjd: see ubotu's instructions above.
[10:09] <joot> Sterling, do you have windows installed?
[10:10] <kaboombob> hansjd click applications bar go to accessories click terminal
[10:10] <kaboombob> hansjd you with me so far?
[10:10] <hansjd> ah... stupid me
[10:10] <Sterling> Joot: yes
[10:10] <hansjd> kaboombob: yes
[10:10] <gaurish> VvWolverinevV_, i guess this is not the way by which its written in the guide i refered to you, don't know if this works too, but i would suggest you should try that method
[10:10] <joot> Sterling, Are you using the ubuntu live cd??
[10:11] <Sterling> Ya
[10:11] <gaurish> VvWolverinevV_, you have type sudo grub via live cd
[10:11] <Sonjaaa> i want to get a better file manager than nautilus. any suggestions?
[10:11] <kaboombob> hansjd type cd /<insert root directory of file here>
[10:11] <Sterling> Joot: ya
[10:11] <VvWolverinevV_> gaurish: should i unmount the partition first?
[10:11] <n2diy> Sonjaaa: Midnight Commander, MC
[10:11] <kaboombob> hansjd ex cd /bin/cmd/textstuff
[10:12] <gaurish> VvWolverinevV_, you using live cd?
[10:12] <joot> Sterling, Why do you not use the guided resize option ubuntu is not greedy and will leave plenty for windows
[10:12] <kaboombob> hansjd got that?
[10:12] <nikken> anyone? -> <nikken> does anyone know how to spawn a new child from wifi0 (master)?
[10:12] <hansjd> yup
[10:12] <VvWolverinevV_> gaurish:  yes
[10:12] <Sterling> JOot: Cause I want to make sure that it does not overwrite anything....
[10:12] <BoltClock> 94%
[10:12] <Sterling> an d I dont see a resize option...
[10:12] <hansjd> it's is just the command for the editing program i cant remember...
[10:12] <zackie> astro76___How would i be able to run that script with the new version?
[10:12] <kaboombob> hansjd type gedit <file name>
[10:12] <hansjd> gedit
[10:12] <hansjd> thanx :D
[10:12] <BoltClock> oooo done!
[10:13] <gaurish> VvWolverinevV_, do step by step as written in here ==> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows
[10:13] <kaboombob> hansjd did that work for you?
[10:13] <Sterling> Joot I see guided continuos  free space and I see Guided Full
[10:13] <hansjd> that's the one i couldnt remember
[10:13] <joot> Sterling, If you defragged window before you start then the guided resize will be ok for you
[10:13] <Javid> Can anyone tell me the syntax, real quick, to make a rar of everything in or below the current folder, hidden or not?
[10:13] <kaboombob> hansjd your the first person i have helped all the way thru so far
[10:13] <alecwh> I'm trying to install the 'murrine' theme engine, and I'm having trouble. I downloaded the gtk2-engines-murrine package, and I'm stuck. Can someone help?
[10:13] <Sonja> what should i use to defrag in ubuntu?
[10:13] <hansjd> hehe...
[10:14] <hansjd> just one more thing... how was i get back to the session?
[10:14] <kaboombob> sonja defrag doesnt need to be done
[10:14] <dgjones> !defrag | Sonja
[10:14] <ubotu> Sonja: The default Ubuntu filesystem (ext3) is engineered to avoid fragmentation issues in most cases, see http://linkpot.net/behead/ for a simple example on how it achieves this. A package "defrag" is available in !Universe, however its use is not safe, and is generally not needed.
[10:14] <BoltClock> if something goes wrong i can always try rebooting back on the live cd to seek support here right?
[10:14] <joot> Sonja linux does not need dfrag
[10:14] <alecwh> !murrine > alecwh
[10:14] <n2diy> Sonjaaa: linux derags every night, with dsck
[10:15] <didar> Javid: do you mean "tar"?
[10:15] <kaboombob> sonja http://www.whylinuxisbetter.net/items/defragment/index.php?lang=
[10:15] <oshamahue> hi i am trying to install ubuntu from live cd . it allways stucks at the 22% and it gives errno 5. the error says  maybe something wrong with the cd or the hard disk . i just installed to the same machine yesterday with same cd but it crushed because of some wrong conf at xorg.conf and i couldnt save the system. what can i do to solve this
[10:15] <BoltClock> if something goes wrong i can always try rebooting back on the live cd to seek support here right?
[10:15] <gaurish> Sonja, linux unlike windows does not require to don't waste your time in doing a defragmentation rather do something productive :)
[10:15] <kaboombob> boltclock yeah
[10:16] <Javid> didar, any archive format it likes, i just want to put a folder in one file so I can copy it elsewhere as a backup
[10:16] <gaurish> BoltClock, yes
[10:16] <BoltClock> alright, ill restart now :)
[10:16] <Sterling> Cna i continue using the internet and live CD while ubuntu installs?

[10:16] <joot> Sterling, you should see a slider showing your ntfs (windows) at around 60 percent at the balance for ubuntu
[10:16] <didar> Javid: you are welcome
[10:17] <joot> sorry
[10:17] <n2diy> Sonjaaa:whopps, that should be fsck.  ..... linux derags every night, with dsck
[10:17] <Sterling> ok....
[10:17] <kaboombob> didar any ideas on my problem?
[10:17] <VvWolverinevV_> gaurish: zomg, i was using the install disk, not the live cd
[10:17] <joot> Sterling, If you move the slider left you will make windows partion smaller
[10:17] <kaboombob> ddiar http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/52387/ for the link again
[10:17] <kaboombob> didar
[10:17] <tehk> Is there anyway to set a custom copy and paste shortcut?
[10:18] <didar> kaboombob: you could try uninstalling the "mpeg3-utils" package using dpkg
[10:18] <didar> kaboombob: and see if it helps
[10:18] <kaboombob> how do i do that?
[10:18] <zackie> Checked all the links i could find and the how to guids as far as Installing a .tar.gz file that is on my Desktop to extract it and install the inside components... any Suggestions? Sypnatic dosn't show it nor does add/remove... File is Songbird[][]
[10:18] <didar> kaboombob: beyond this unfortunately I am at my limits end :(
[10:18] <n2diy> tehk:  Check out alias under bash?
[10:18] <didar> kaboombob: don't remember now
[10:18] <gaurish> VvWolverinevV_, are both different ?
[10:18] <gaurish> !live
[10:18] <ubotu> The Ubuntu Desktop CD is a "LiveCD" which can be run without altering existing files on your harddrive. Especially useful for testing your hardware's compatibility, it also includes an install option.
[10:19] <didar> kaboombob: I think dpkg -e mpeg3-utils
[10:19] <kaboombob> didar -r
[10:19] <VvWolverinevV_> gaurish: does the install dik have grub?
[10:19] <joot> Sterling, you going to be ok now??
[10:19] <oshamahue> hi i am trying to install ubuntu from live cd . it allways stucks at the 22% and it gives errno 5. the error says  maybe something wrong with the cd or the hard disk . i just installed to the same machine yesterday with same cd but it crushed because of some wrong conf at xorg.conf and i couldnt save the system. what can i do to solve this
[10:19] <gaurish> kaboombob, to remove a package use apt-get remove <package name>
[10:20] <Sterling> yep
[10:20] <kaboombob> gaurish that has been what caused the whole problem
[10:20] <sharingos> hi all
[10:20] <gaurish> VvWolverinevV_, grub is a bootloader, every os comes with a boot loader
[10:21] <gaurish> !grub
[10:21] <sharingos> do you know what's the name of the gcc version 3.3 package?
[10:21] <ubotu> grub is the default Ubuntu boot manager. Lost grub after installing windows: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows - Making GRUB floppies & other GRUB howtos: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto
[10:21] <joot> Sterling, OK I leave you to it then g night
[10:21] <sharingos> apt-get install what?
[10:21] <n2diy> oshamahue: you may have a bad cd, try burining a new one?
[10:21] <Sterling> Thanks Joot
[10:21] <BoltClock> im on ubuntu without the cd
[10:21] <BoltClock> it looks great
[10:21] <EcoBlue> I'm running ubuntu now
[10:21] <BoltClock> Restricted Drivers only lists one proprietary driver
[10:21] <EcoBlue> it's nice
[10:21] <BoltClock> will there happen to be any other proprietary drivers that i may need to install?
[10:22] <EcoBlue> restricted drivers didn't like my lack of repo's though
[10:22] <EcoBlue> so I had to fix that
[10:22] <kaboombob> ecoblue boltclock congrats i did that recently enough to know it feels welcome over
[10:22] <BoltClock> kaboombob: thanks!  Is there a way I could do the same thing with a launcher?
[10:23] <EcoBlue> I hate to run ubuntu though
[10:23] <EcoBlue> OS itself is good
[10:23] <EcoBlue> my apps work etc
[10:23] <n2diy> but?
[10:23] <kaboombob> ecoblue why do you hate it then?
[10:23] <EcoBlue> kaboombob, well it's name ubuntu for one
[10:24] <kaboombob> the name?
[10:24] <EcoBlue> not really, the association with the name
[10:24] <EcoBlue> the lack of cli
[10:24] <oshamahue> i cannot open my windows partiton. is there any way to open my windows partition it says gurb loading please wait Error 17
[10:24] <kaboombob> cli?
[10:24] <Sharpie> when i try to run azureus/vlc player i get an error: "The error was 'BadAlloc (insufficient resources for operation)'.". anybody has a solution?
[10:25] <asc> Er, try accessories->terminal, eco?
[10:25] <dgjones> EcoBlue, Ubuntu has a normal cli, just disables the root account as standard
[10:25] <n2diy> lack of cli, that could be a movie name!
[10:25] <zackie> Does anybody have about 5-10mins to Some what walk a Noobert through extracting/installing .tar.gz file?
[10:25] <Madpilot> EcoBlue, if by cli you mean command line interface/terminal stuff, that all works in Ubuntu...
[10:25] <EcoBlue> Madpilot, no emerge :(
[10:25] <EcoBlue> and for the life of me I can't search with apt-get
[10:25] <EcoBlue> apt-get search doesn't exist ?
