[05:51] <shmeelAway> if i'm on a laptop and i get a monitor, is it easy to set up dual monitor w/ a VGA connection? and is it possible for me to use just one of the monitors instead of both at any point? like if i wated to use just my laptop monitor or just the other monitor could i change that easily?
[05:52] <neozen> shmeelAway: I had problems with this too
[05:52] <n-iCe> what i need to write in the console?
[05:52] <Centaur5> neozen: I really want to consider pushing it with Feisty's release but we have a really efficient setup with windows.
[05:52] <n-iCe> cd ~/.xmms ?
[05:52] <yellow> Jabba69, the thing keeps spunning, saying it's looking for my home network, then leave it with an orange triangle
[05:52] <neozen> shmeelAway: are you running xubuntu or ubuntu?
[05:52] <shmeelAway> neozen: ubuntu
[05:52] <neozen> oh wait....
[05:52] <neozen> sorry... wrong newbie
[05:52] <n-iCe> I don't want to join in the console i want to join grpahical
[05:52] <shmeelAway> hehe
[05:52] <neozen> pablasso: that was for you
[05:52] <Arrick> hey, got a question
[05:53] <dennisharrison> n-iCe, what ?
[05:53] <neozen> Arrick: ok.. .ask it
[05:53] <dennisharrison> n-iCe, what client are you using?
[05:53] <n-iCe> ubuntu
[05:53] <pablasso> neozen, ubuntu.. so gnome keyring it is
[05:53] <yellow> Jabba69, maybe purge nm and reinstall it ?
[05:53] <Arrick> keep getting bumped off the network, what port should I forwaord so my client doesnt keep timing out?
[05:53] <Jabba69> hmm..
[05:53] <neozen> Arrick: quickly ... before we start bouncing off the walls or something
[05:53] <kari21> a til quel qun qui parle francais
[05:53] <n-iCe> i got it
[05:53] <Jabba69> maybe...i know broadcom drivers are notoriously buggy.
[05:53] <n-iCe> thank you
[05:53] <ant> bogus : have you tried this  :https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Device/NetgearWG111?highlight=%28WifiDocs%2FDevice%29
[05:53] <Jabba69> why i used ndis wrapper
[05:53] <Arrick> neozen you are already doing that, so dont worry about that part
[05:53] <jaamarti> heya neozen..  what's happening?
[05:53] <yellow> Jabba69, i'm so waitng for nm0.7 to come out
[05:54] <neozen> jaamarti: greetings
[05:54] <yellow> !fr | kari21
[05:54] <ubotu> kari21: Allez a #ubuntu-fr ou #kubuntu-fr pour de l'aide et de la discussion en francais.
[05:54] <neozen> jaamarti: not much, my brain hurts
[05:54] <Kronuz> arrenlex, so technically to make it work, I should basically do: during installation, change to a shell, do chroot /target, install the dmraid package using apt-get install dmraid; load the module using modprobe dmraid, and that's it?
[05:54] <gatekeep> hmm
[05:54] <eV64> ok, network-manager wasn't seeing my eth2 wireless (which i'm using right now) so i did sudo apt-get remove --purge network-manager.  How do i restart it?
[05:54] <neozen> jaamarti: been throwing graph theory at it for the past 3 days
[05:54] <neozen> eV64: restart what?
[05:55] <arrenlex> Kronuz: Again, I don't know anything about software raid and very little about installing debian. That was a suggestion for something that you might be able to get away with.
[05:55] <Jabba69> yellow: with ndis wrapper and nm I connect to cisco router at work and DD-WRT hacked home router
[05:55] <yellow> gatekeep, the thing keeps spunning, ticking me off
[05:55] <Jabba69> no problems..
[05:55] <kari21> tank you
[05:55] <gatekeep> yellow: ?
[05:55] <yellow> Jabba69, maybe time to try ndis wrapper
[05:55] <bogus> ant: that's essentially what I've done
[05:55] <yellow> gatekeep, nm
[05:55] <gatekeep> yellow: mmkay
[05:55] <eV64> network-manager-gnome
[05:55] <Kronuz> arrenlex, I understand, but did that sound like something logical and that could work?
[05:55] <arrenlex> Kronuz: Yes.
[05:55] <yellow> Jabba69, any essential difference between using firmware and ndis wrapper ?
[05:56] <gatekeep> just to check ... i tested single .. unless you set a root password ... single should NEVER ask you for one ..
[05:56] <Kronuz> arrenlex, ok I'll try it and then I'll let you know :)
[05:56] <bogus> ant: however. "ifup wlan0" responds "Device does not exist"
[05:56] <yellow> speed/performance ?
[05:56] <Kronuz> bbl
[05:56] <neozen-beer> bbl
[05:56] <gatekeep> and init 1 ... seems to be changed on ubuntu unfortunatly .. which is odd
[05:56] <Jabba69> I have not noticed any speed deg
[05:56] <eV64> neozen: network-manager gnome
[05:56] <yellow> gatekeep, so what do you suggest teenbeat should do ?
[05:56] <arrenlex> Kronuz: Hold on
[05:56] <arrenlex> Kronuz: That won't work.
[05:56] <Jabba69> http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=297092
[05:56] <Kronuz> hmm
[05:56] <gatekeep> yellow: use the Live CD ... and use passwd in a chroot
[05:56] <Jabba69> check out that post, for dells but broadcom is broadcom
[05:57] <arrenlex> Kronuz: If you have to chroot to target to install stuff into it, then the root partition has to already exist and a basic system be installed.
[05:57] <ant> bogus : did the syslog tell you what interface your card was? (wlan0, eth0 or something)
[05:57] <Kronuz> I see
[05:57] <arrenlex> Kronuz: Er, yeah. Sorry. xD
[05:57] <Kronuz> arrenlex, so, maybe I'll use a ram disk then
[05:57] <bogus> ant: I'm not sure, where would I check that?
[05:57] <nn531> " configure: error: C compiler cannot create executables" any help?
[05:57] <arrenlex> nn531: Install build-essential
[05:58] <ant> bogus : i would suggest doing everything step by step on that page
[05:58] <yellow> gatekeep, how do you do that ?
[05:58] <yellow> gatekeep, teenbeat is the one that needs help, and i'm also eager to learn, won't be wasted info
[05:58] <gatekeep> yellow: well ... if its a default installation of ubuntu, mount the ubuntu hard disk and then chroot to where its mounted
[05:59] <Kronuz> arrenlex, I suppose it doesn't really matter where a kernel module is located at when I load it, right?
[05:59] <gatekeep> yellow: then use passwd to change passwords as needed, one should NEVER EVER set a root password, its rather insecure
[05:59] <yellow> Jabba69, that's meaning i have to clean up stuff fwcutter and stuff
[05:59] <Kronuz> arrenlex, so I could just download it to a ram disk and modprobe it from there... I hope?
[05:59] <yellow> gatekeep, chroot to where it's mounted ?
[05:59] <pablasso> so anyone knows how to make the gnome keyring to remember the password instead of asking me at every login?
[05:59] <bogus> ant: modprobe ndiswrapper causes the cursor in my terminal to become bold, and I cannot enter further commands
[05:59] <Jabba69> yellow: yeah, before anything make sure you can get and extract the ndis drivers from compaq
[06:00] <arrenlex> Kronuz: I really don't know anything about this issue and shouldn't be answering your questions because I'll mislead you. Sorry.
[06:00] <Jabba69> don't forget to put ndsiwrapper into /etc/modules also
[06:00] <Kronuz> arrenlex, okay, thanks anyway :)
[06:01] <ant> bogus : it freezes your terminal?
[06:01] <gatekeep> yellow: yes for example if the ubuntu hard drive is hda ... you would do ... http://rafb.net/p/klRwkw13.html
[06:01] <gatekeep> yellow: btw
[06:01] <giskardd> how do i switch to the non-spm kernel?
[06:01] <giskardd> *smp
[06:01] <bogus> ant: I can continue typing but pressing enter doesn't do anything, and commands don't do anything either
[06:01] <gatekeep> yellow: that is an example, you need to know what partition your ubuntu install is on and such ...
[06:01] <yellow> gatekeep, yes, i got you
[06:02] <frenzy-br> !codec
[06:02] <yellow> gatekeep, from there on i can use passwd to reset root pass right ?
[06:02] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about codec - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[06:02] <yellow> gatekeep, oh it's already in step 4
[06:02] <gatekeep> yellow: yes but again you shouldn't do that
[06:02] <yellow> d'oh
[06:02] <frenzy-br> !codecs

[06:02] <Kronuz> arrenlex, I found dmraid in my Debian disk
[06:02] <ant> bogus : goto another terminal and see if the module found the device with 'tail /var/log/syslog'
[06:02] <gatekeep> yellow: i always recommend against one setting a root password ... its insecure ... sudo and su are much safer
[06:02] <JN_Coward> I am having major trouble with apache, I had Apache2.0 installed (package) and now I build Apache2.2 from source, however the old Apache2 install lingers and somehow I can't figure out how to start Apache2.2
[06:02] <yellow> gatekeep, why is that ?
[06:03] <arrenlex> Kronuz: Cool!
[06:03] <arrenlex> Kronuz: By default?
[06:03] <gatekeep> yellow: well im security conscious against system hackers as a system administrator, so i don't like people having a direct way to access root
[06:03] <ant> bogus : you are looking for something like wlan0, wlan1.. or eth0, eth1
[06:03] <gatekeep> yellow: plus it cuts of your use of single
[06:03] <Kronuz> arrenlex, well, it's there in the iso... but I don't know how to load it :S
[06:03] <gatekeep> yellow: the recovery mode
[06:03] <Kronuz> (it doesn't load by default, or at least it doesn't show my drives)
[06:04] <arrenlex> Kronuz: It won't load itself? What if you boot in expert mode?
[06:04] <giskardd> can anyone tell me how to change the smp kernel to the non-smp kernel?
[06:04] <Kronuz> hmm.. never tried it...
[06:04] <Kronuz> I'm really new to linux
[06:04] <yellow> gatekeep, well it's kind of the balance between how strong root vs. user password is isn't it ?
[06:04] <Kronuz> (I come from the Windows world, running away from Vista)
[06:04] <wraithsoul> rass
[06:05] <wraithsoul> it is jessi
[06:05] <gatekeep> yellow: yes ... but if you don't have direct access to root, the attacker would need to find an account capable of su or sudo
[06:05] <bimberi> giskardd: install linux-386
[06:05] <bogus> ant:  this line repeats itself when that command is run:  "Mar 22 01:03:01 BHCpc dhclient: DHCPDISCOVER on eth0 to <IP_ADDRESS> port 67 interval 5
[06:05] <bogus> "
[06:05] <Kronuz> arrenlex, but dmraid is at /pool/main/d/dmraid in my Debian netinst disk
[06:06] <gatekeep> yellow: im not trying to pursuade you to do it one way or another, but if it is a desktop machine the chances are you won't be hacked but leaving root password less is safe if you ever need to go into recovery mode
[06:06] <yellow> gatekeep, got cha
[06:06] <nn531> arrenlex: build-essential did not work for me
[06:06] <Kronuz> I'll reboot and try again
[06:06] <bogus> ant: however eth0 is the regular ethernet card I'm using now
[06:06] <Rass> um, my x server is malconfigured and I am new to Linex and illiterate....
[06:06] <Kronuz> arrenlex, do you think expert mode loads more drivers by itself?
[06:06] <Rass> halp?
[06:06] <Kronuz> or it's just so that I can tell it what to load?
[06:06] <Decepticon> how do you pronounce ubuntu?
[06:06] <Decepticon> oo bun two ?
[06:06] <gatekeep> yellow: trust me it will make your life a lot more simple if you forget a password ...
[06:06] <ant> bogus : do another iwconfig
[06:06] <Decepticon> or you bun two
[06:06] <maddash> "I can't handle debian"
[06:06] <arrenlex> Kronuz: No, but it gives you options for what modules to load.
[06:07] <arrenlex> Decepticon: ooo-bun-two
[06:07] <Kronuz> oh... like in a list?
[06:07] <yellow> gatekeep, hehe biometrics
[06:07] <bogus> ant:  "lo        no wireless extensions.
[06:07] <bogus> eth0      no wireless extensions.
[06:07] <bogus> eth1      no wireless extensions.
[06:07] <bogus> sit0      no wireless extensions."
[06:07] <gatekeep> yellow: ;)
[06:07] <yellow> teenbeat, did you follow what gatekeep said
[06:07] <Kronuz> I'll reboot and try again, thanks arrenlex

[06:07] <Decepticon> bimberi awesome thank you
[06:07] <gatekeep> yellow: im just tryin to keep it simple for you
[06:07] <bimberi> Decepticon: np :)
[06:07] <arrenlex> Cool, I didn't know there was a factoid for that. Thanks, bimberi.
[06:08] <wraithsoul> rass
[06:08] <Decepticon> personally i like saying youbuntwo
[06:08] <arrenlex> It'll save me having to mouth words over IRC.
[06:08] <Decepticon> dunno, just habit
[06:08] <teenbeat> im not started yes
[06:08] <bimberi> arrenlex: lol
[06:08] <Rass> yes Wraithsoul?
[06:08] <wraithsoul> in irssi, to switch windows, press esc # of window
[06:08] <yellow> gatekeep, my nm's been trying to get the network key for 20 mins, ever since you restarted ;(
[06:08] <wraithsoul> like, press esc 1
[06:08] <teenbeat> ive took an shower to get fresh
[06:08] <wraithsoul> and that will bring you to the server window
[06:08] <ant> bogus : you should see ndiswrapper initializing the module in your syslog, you can still try to setup your interface by going to the next step
[06:08] <teenbeat> im getting sleepie
[06:08] <gatekeep> yellow: bcm43xx or ndiswrapper?
[06:08] <yellow> gatekeep, i think it's time i purge nm and put in a password EXTREMELY carefully
[06:09] <gatekeep> ahh
[06:09] <yellow> bcm43xx
[06:09] <gatekeep> NM
[06:09] <gatekeep> nvm then
[06:09] <gatekeep> yea
[06:09] <gatekeep> if NM gets a password in the keyring
[06:09] <gatekeep> usually
[06:09] <gatekeep> i think
[06:09] <teenbeat> but im going to start in a minute
[06:09] <yellow> gatekeep, it keeps saing waiting for network key for the wireless network ...
[06:09] <gatekeep> well
[06:09] <gatekeep> is it saving the password to a keyring?
[06:09] <giskardd> bimberi: where is linux-386?
[06:09] <nn531> anyone know why my apt-get update and build-essential isnt working?
[06:09] <wraithsoul> rass?
[06:09] <yellow> teenbeat, reboot with live cd, do the steps http://rafb.net/p/klRwkw13.html , where /dev/hda1 is where / partion of your system is
[06:10] <yellow> gatekeep, yes
[06:10] <yellow> gatekeep, it saved it yesterday
[06:10] <gatekeep> yellow: hold a sec, i have to remeber something but its easier to do this then purging nm
[06:10] <jmg> hey all
[06:10] <jmg> is feisty+1 named yet?
[06:10] <jmg> gloomy goldfish!
[06:10] <arrenlex> lol
[06:10] <teenbeat> ok
[06:11] <Chapayev> anyone make ndiswrapper 1.38 recently?
[06:11] <goosfraba4u> please help mount a USB HD
[06:11] <yellow> gatekeep, today i gave back the password but it's still not getting the network key for the ssid
[06:11] <gatekeep> yellow: goto your home dir, .gnome2/keyrings clear the dir out
[06:11] <gatekeep> yellow: just a word of caution that will clear your keyring
[06:11] <Crescendo> I have a friend who is on the phone with me, trying to get a new install of Ubuntu to connect to an unencrypted wireless network - and so far is unsuccessful - what can I do to troubleshoot?
[06:11] <Chapayev> i dunno why Im asking - i just returned the netgear wg111
[06:11] <gatekeep> yellow: or at least the one time nm got a bad password for my network it works
[06:12] <yellow> gatekeep, wireless i s the only hting on there
[06:12] <Chapayev> cres - he prob needs this piece of shit - ndiswrapper

[06:14] <gatekeep> wtf
[06:14] <difeta> is it true that ubuntu will no longer provide a ppc version of the distro?

[06:17] <gatekeep> no ubuntu i don't want to restart
[06:17] <jaamarti> quick question, I have some python packages that won't configure and I keep getting barf messages about them..  how do I remove them?  everytime I try it goes and tries to reconfigure them and barfs again
[06:17] <gatekeep> be back in a bit
[06:18] <wraithsoul> Rass' ubuntu boxes x11 broke after she moved it into the other room. The error says basically that the monitor is not detected. This is probably a common problem and I am hoping we can get some help. I dunno what her config file looks like. Is there a way to quickly replace the config file to what it was at install or another way to fix it?
[06:18] <Chapayev> oh no! wheres the gate?
[06:18] <[M] orpheus> hi i donwloaded xchat and it requires a lib that is older than the lib I have installed... what may I do?
[06:18] <wraithsoul> morpheus, get the newer version
[06:18] <wraithsoul> :\
[06:18] <Broady> the new version doesnt work?
[06:18] <[M] orpheus> wraith, I think i got the last version from xchat...
[06:19] <arieanie> bash: /bin/start.sh: Permission denied
[06:19] <arieanie> how can i change this?
[06:19] <[M] orpheus> he required libdbus-1-2 and i have 1.3
[06:19] <Davo_Dinkum> morodock: Or use irsso
[06:19] <jmg> the official statement is not to name until after the release of the in-development version
[06:20] <teenbeat> ok its working again
[06:20] <alekz> hi, wich package can i use to connect a desktop pc to my lap top in my home network and access to files from one to the other ?
[06:20] <yellow> teenbeat, good :)
[06:21] <yellow> teenbeat, beats 3x re-install eh ?
[06:21] <teenbeat> one thing thou wath is the difference between gnome and the regular startup, yell0w: yes absolutly
[06:21] <[M] orpheus> another question... i have an ATI 9600XT... it's better use ATI drivers, or the free drivers?
[06:22] <ant> arieanie : sudo chmod 700 /bin/start.sh
[06:22] <gatekeep> morpheus: that depends ... PITA or not PITA
[06:22] <crdlb> [M] orpheus, fglrx will be faster, but the free drivers will be more stable
[06:22] <yellow> teenbeat, ubuntu starts with gnome by default
[06:22] <[M] orpheus> gatekeep: what is pITA?
[06:22] <gatekeep> morpheus: pain in the ass
[06:23] <teenbeat> ok but in options you can change sessions
[06:23] <teenbeat> i thought gnome was second option
[06:23] <yellow> teenbeat, try it, it might be different ;)
[06:23] <teenbeat> ok i will im curious
[06:23] <[M] orpheus> if I want to use beryl, glx or AIGLX? (sry about all the newbie questions, long time without using lnx)
[06:24] <gatekeep> uhh you might want to try the free drivers
[06:24] <gatekeep> FGLRX will give you hell
[06:24] <teenbeat> yell0w: and gatekeeper : thank you both
[06:24] <[M] orpheus> gatekeep: ty :D
[06:24] <crdlb> [M] orpheus, I completely agree
[06:24] <gatekeep> morpheus: if you can't get direct rendering and such on free then your force the PITA route, using XGL and crap
[06:25] <ant> [M] orpheus : #ubuntu-effects
[06:25] <yellow> teenbeat, np, the credit belongs to gatekeep ;)
[06:25] <yellow> teenbeat, was it diffrent ? :P
[06:25] <teenbeat> im now going to sleep, my wife will wake up in half an hour its 06.25 am see you later guys

[06:27] <goosfraba4u> HELP! just got a MyBook (usb drive) and can't mount it any way I try.
[06:28] <goosfraba4u> the damn thing is on FAT32 (if that's responsible for it?)
[06:28] <ant> goosfraba4u : i assume it doesnt show up under lsusb
[06:28] <goosfraba4u> ant: nope
[06:28] <ant> :(
[06:28] <goosfraba4u> ant: tell me about it
[06:29] <Jordan_U> goosfraba4u, FAT32 should mount just fine
[06:29] <ant> goosfraba4u : and google didn't return any help?
[06:29] <goosfraba4u> ant: I wouldn't bother you guys if it did
[06:29] <goosfraba4u> ant: this is my last resource
[06:30] <rule30>  is there a way to disable the "media change" when using apt-get ?
[06:30] <goosfraba4u> ant: *resort
[06:30] <goosfraba4u> ant: so any other suggestions?
[06:30] <worksucks79> Hi Everyone.....
[06:31] <rule30> Quick Queston: Does anyone know how to disable the "Media Change" prompting for the CDROM when using the apt-get utility?
[06:32] <jmg> rule30: remove the cdrom from sources and apt-get update
[06:32] <rule30> I strictly want to use the HTTP/FTP connection for retrieving packages, and operations involving the apt-get utility...
[06:32] <rule30> where is "sources"?
[06:32] <jmg> /etc/apt/sources.list
[06:32] <ant> goosfraba4u : well after looking on the web, seems like other poeple are using theirs.. so it is possible.
[06:32] <rule30> ahh... Thank you
[06:33] <Moreau> anyone know how to access another partition, i just started with linux and i cant figure out how to get to the other partition
[06:33] <rule30> jmg, that did the trick
[06:33] <rule30> jmg, Thank you!
[06:33] <jay> hi
[06:34] <jay> somebody help me how to install GCC
[06:34] <Rass> Excuse me #ubuntu, but HELP! My X server is disabled apparently and I know not what to do, I am new to Linex....
[06:35] <goosfraba4u> ant: thanks. I know it's possible. The question is, "how?"
[06:35] <macd> jay 'sudo apt-get install build-essential'
[06:35] <jtraub> jay, sudo aptitude install gcc
[06:35] <worksucks79> Is there anyone out there willing to spend a couple minutes with a newb trying to get wine running on Ubuntu 6.10?  I need to run a program for my business, and can't get it.
[06:35] <jay> thx...i'll try
[06:36] <genii> build-essential will give you gcc plus other neccesary things
[06:36] <jtraub> worksucks79, whats wrong with your wine?
[06:36] <Moreau> anyone know how to access another partition, i just started with fedora and i cant figure out how to get to the other partition
[06:36] <jaamarti> night all.. time to go
[06:36] <worksucks79> jtraub - I don't think it will install
[06:36] <mkquist> Moreau - u have to mount the partition to be able to access it
[06:36] <Moreau> o and how do i do that :P
[06:37] <worksucks79> jtraub - dpkg --configure -a
[06:37] <worksucks79> E: dpkg was interrupted, you must manually run 'dpkg --configure -a' to correct the problem.
[06:37] <worksucks79> I meant
[06:37] <mkquist> Moreau - try this.. dc to you /mnt folder, sudo mkdir otherdrive
[06:38] <Moreau> ill try
[06:38] <Moreau> i barely understand what u just said lol
[06:38] <mkquist> Moreau - then sudo mount -t ext3 /dev/hd? (other drive letter there/part there)  /mnt/otherdrive
[06:38] <goosfraba4u> ant: just tried (watch -d "dmesg | grep usb")
[06:39] <goosfraba4u> ant: when I unplugged my mouse, it changed, but when I plugged in the MyBook... nothing...
[06:39] <mkquist> Moreau - search for mount drives or something similar in the ubuntu forums
[06:40] <mkquist> sry cd to your*
[06:40] <mkquist> lol
[06:41] <mkquist> Moreau - basically what u have to do is create a mount pt for the other drive/partition u want to access
[06:41] <abasinisvacant> could i simplify    sinh(x)(sech(x)^2) any more?
[06:41] <mkquist> Moreau - then mount the drive, then its accessible
[06:41] <clouder`grr> In Firestarter, allowing connections is pretty obvious.  How to I block an IP using firestarter?
[06:41] <Yggdrasil> whats the latest ubuntu ?
[06:41] <mkquist> Moreau - i was just giving u the commands for it, to try it out...
[06:42] <Yggdrasil> edgy ?
[06:43] <clouder`grr> Nevermind, I now realize that it blocks all and you open what you need
[06:43] <ant> goosfraba4u : if its not showing up in dmesg i dont know where to start
[06:43] <mkquist> Yggdrasil - stable? Edgy 6.10 - about to be Feisty
[06:43] <mkquist> Fawn
[06:43] <Yggdrasil> mkquist isee.
[06:43] <Yggdrasil> how lank out ?
[06:44] <Chap> <-- is hiiigh
[06:44] <Moreau> mkquist: how do i make myself the root in the terminal
[06:44] <Yggdrasil> mkquist just change everything to fiesty in aptsources
[06:44] <Chap> sudo -s
[06:44] <mkquist> Moreau - use sudo before the command
[06:44] <mkquist> Moreau - or use what Chap just said..lol
[06:45] <Chap> if u sit here long enough n do enough drugs - things repeat
[06:45] <goosfraba4u> ant: thanks for your support on this one. Bad usb port. Just plugged it in one of the ones in the front and it autodetected. (Thats what happens when you have 16 usb ports... :) )
[06:45] <Chap> so Ill repeat that I can gprs w/ BT to my ubu box..ne1 need help :)
[06:45] <Moreau> "Moreau is no in the sudoers file. This incident will be reported" ---uh wtf
[06:46] <Nexus_BSD> hey all, anyoen else have problems with wifi and 6.10?
[06:46] <Chap> wifi shld be better in edgy accord to docs
[06:46] <Yggdrasil> hmm..
[06:46] <Chap> like my wg111 wouldve worked w/o ndiscrapper
[06:46] <mkquist> Moreau - when u try to sudo?
[06:47] <clouder`grr> !firewall
[06:47] <ubotu> Ubuntu, like any other linux distribution, has firewall capabilities built-in. The firewall is managed using the 'iptables' command (see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/IptablesHowTo), or GUI applications such as Firestarter (Gnome) or Guarddog (KDE).
[06:47] <Chap> neway i returned it to pick up anther bag
[06:47] <Nexus_BSD> Chap: i have no wifi options at all with 6.10
[06:47] <ZoOlMaN> Hi all, I was trying to run a 3D application when I get this error (OpenGL GLX extension not supported by display)
[06:47] <Nexus_BSD> Chap: then again i have never setup a system with linux that used wifi
[06:47] <Chap> what hardware u pushin Nex??
[06:47] <Moreau> yes mkquist
[06:47] <Nexus_BSD> HP nc6320
[06:47] <ZoOlMaN> now my VGA Card Supports OpenGL on windows!, what should I look for?
[06:47] <Nexus_BSD> Chap: it's got a intel 2200bg
[06:47] <Differ> do I ALWAYS have to defragment before partitioning, if Windows says I don't have to?
[06:48] <mkquist> Moreau - what did u type? --curious
[06:48] <Chap> do u even see the device?
[06:48] <ant> goosfraba4u : thats almost funny, i was thinking earlier that you might be using a usb 1.1 and needing a usb2 but it shoulda worked none the less
[06:48] <Nexus_BSD> no
[06:48] <Differ> Nexus_BSD: are you talking to me?
[06:48] <Yggdrasil> iwconfig ?
[06:48] <Moreau> sudo mount -t vfat /dev/hda1/mnt/cpx
[06:48] <Nexus_BSD> Chap: under both the networking option under system->administration->networking
[06:48] <Nexus_BSD> Chap: as well as under iwconfig
[06:49] <Nexus_BSD> Differ: no sir
[06:49] <Differ> ok.
[06:49] <ant> Nexus_BSD : i'm using a intel2200BG on edgy and it worked out of the box, using ipw2200 driver
[06:49] <Nexus_BSD> Differ: i know it gets confusing when i do not lable who i am talkign to
[06:49] <mkquist> Moreau - space between hda1 and /mnt i think would help ur saying mount type this here...
[06:49] <Nexus_BSD> ant: i am not ue what is wrong
[06:50] <Nexus_BSD> i have considered a re-installation
[06:50] <fatlip> The following packages have been kept back: kdelibs5 kdelibs5-dev
[06:50] <fatlip> i keep getting that same error
[06:50] <Yggdrasil> sudo apt-get dist-upgrade ?
[06:50] <Nexus_BSD> ant: i have redownloaded the latest 6.0 iso and burned it, but i am not sure if there is ny change as far as the wifi support from the last .10 iso i buned
[06:50] <Nexus_BSD> i am sort of at a lose
[06:51] <Nexus_BSD> well rather a stand still
[06:51] <ant> Nexus_BSD : you could always read the changelog

[07:01] <Moreau> yeah its the right one
[07:01] <Chapayev> ahh ant?
[07:01] <mkquist> Moreau - and the error can come up for a few reasons, that dont mean part is dead
[07:01] <Moreau> well 'cant find a valid FAT filesystem on /dev/hda1" means its dead right
[07:01] <Chapayev> <- chain smoked through too many ubuntu_failures

[07:01] <mkquist> Moreau - not necessarily
[07:01] <cani> ok i have a mess, im trying to add a mountig point of a windows partition and i also want to add it to grub

[07:02] <arrow> I looked at the date 3 days ago and saw that it was the nineteenth, and got all excited, and went to get the official release of fiesty fawn, and found out I have a whole month to wait :(
[07:02] <BHSPitMonkey> but It's not getting picked up in a program
[07:02] <student_modnar> Moreau - have you tried a testdisk by chance yet?
[07:02] <BHSPitMonkey> it's an OSS program, and I can -hear- stuff in that program
[07:03] <mr_grump5> hi ppl..i need some help in editing grub to default settings...i have xp in fat32 and ubuntu in dual boot..now xp doesn't boot..while ubuntu works flawlessly
[07:03] <Moreau> whats a testdisk
[07:03] <Chapayev> is there a skype thingy for ubuntu?
[07:03] <genii> cani add it to grub as hd(2,0)
[07:03] <student_modnar> Moreau - its a program that is at least available in Knoppix, it scans and recovers partitions
[07:03] <arrow> Chapayev, yes
[07:03] <shmeelAway> if i have a external monitor, and my laptop has a VGA output, what will plugging in the external monitor do? will just the external monitor show a screen or what
[07:03] <cani> let me try
[07:03] <Chapayev> arrow - nu where ?
[07:04] <student_modnar> Moreau - also apparently available in edgy's archives
[07:04] <arrow> Chapayev, let me look
[07:04] <Chapayev> i need a decent irc - that wont kill this amd
[07:04] <bur[n] er> anyone know how to fix this error?  http://burner.ath.cx/gnome-settings-daemon.png
[07:04] <mkquist> student_modnar - recovers ntfs partitions?

[07:04] <Moreau> k im gonna do d/l testdisk, thanks
[07:05] <bur[n] er> !grub > mr_grump5
[07:05] <student_modnar> Moreau - haven't seen it do ntfs yet, but it worked for a FAT32 once forme
[07:05] <student_modnar> sorry mkquist I meant
[07:05] <arrow> Chapayev, Its in Synaptic Package Manager, it says that its a Voip
[07:05] <Chapayev> brb off to rol one
[07:05] <Moreau> sweet, my hd is all fat
[07:05] <mkquist> Moreau - you still might wanna check make sure ur mount is good and everythings set right b4 giving up on the partition
[07:05] <cani> genii, im gonna restart to see if it works, thanks for the help
[07:06] <genii> cani np
[07:06] <mkquist> Moreau - if you have or can d/l a copy of Knoppix, itll auto mount anything it can from live cd
[07:06] <Moreau> ill get knoppix too then
[07:06] <mkquist> Moreau - and let you see whats good w/no console or terminal commands
[07:07] <student_modnar> mkquist - yeah I swear by it at work when I need to fix win boxes
[07:07] <arrow> whats a win box?
[07:07] <mkquist> oh yea, i use if to fix win and linux boxes.. cause its quicker the ubuntu live cd
[07:07] <mkquist> and the auto mount is nice too
[07:07] <shmeelAway> if i have a external monitor, and my laptop has a VGA output, what will plugging in the external monitor do? will just the external monitor show a screen or what
[07:08] <mkquist> arrow - sarcasm...
[07:08] <mr_grump5> ppl i need help..how to edit the grub so that it dual boots to xp and ubuntu..now it only boots to ubuntu
[07:08] <arrow> windows I'm assuming now
[07:08] <student_modnar> *nod*
[07:08] <mkquist> lol
[07:08] <arrow> <---- wishes it was sarcasm

[07:08] <Landon> Hey all, anyone know how to install x-mplayer2?
[07:09] <student_modnar> Landon - have you tried mplayer and then the mozilla plugin, what you're asking for sounds like the MIME type
[07:09] <genii> shmeelAway: There is usually something like a FN key in lower bottom left or so. If you hit that and one of the function keys along the top which controls lcd/external you can usually switch displays.
[07:09] <weijie902> hi i have a broaddom 440x wired LAN card, ubuntu and XP
[07:09] <weijie902> i can connect to samba at my office
[07:10] <shmeelAway> genii, k will try it, it's just the default key that came with the laptop? no need to configure anything?
[07:10] <weijie902> but i cant access websites, it looks up the url and hangs at connecting
[07:10] <mr_grump5> ubotu:i went through that donno head or tail...i installed ubuntu on my xp system..now i can't boot to xp..now am in ubuntu.. can u guide me to boot into xp..
[07:10] <Landon> student_modnar: I tried the mozilla plugin from synaptic, installed it with everything else, but it didn't work still, still says I need x-mplayer2 when I try to play embedded video
[07:10] <weijie902> pings time out but the ip addresses are found
[07:11] <rass> Can anyone help me reconfigure my X server? I am new to Linex.
[07:11] <genii> shmeelAway: Since it's just the one video card, you are not going to get dual-displays with different stuff on each like a multi-head adapter. The software just sees 1 card. So the keys just tell to use the laptop screen or the external
[07:11] <kaushal> :/
[07:11] <weijie902> rass, sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[07:11] <kaushal> no help here
[07:11] <mr_grump5> any one..how to fix the grub so it boot back to default settings..i have dual booted xp and ubuntu earlier..now i have problem booting to xp..
[07:11] <cani> i couldn't add the windows partition to grub
[07:11] <dwid> how do i change my password on everything
[07:12] <rass> weijie902, thank you I will investigate
[07:12] <shmeelAway> k thx genii
[07:12] <ant> dwid : sudo passwd <username>
[07:12] <genii> shmeelAway: You're welcome
[07:14] <|Amon|> I have no sound, but alsa is installed and working properly and Ubuntu sees my card and seems to have the proper driver installed...
[07:14] <Madpilot> mr_grump5, you sure you didn't just overwrite XP when you installed Ubuntu?
[07:14] <|Amon|> i'm at a loss.
[07:14] <genii> cani If you want further help from me on this, please use the pastebin website to paste the contents of the files /boot/grub/menu.lst   and /etc/fstab and then i will examine it for clues
[07:14] <arrow> Why does it say "Enter new UNIX passwd" the UNIX par
[07:15] <cani> whats the address?
[07:15] <mr_grump5> Madpilot:i was using the dual boot for years..some how i messed up the grub...i can view xp and other drives from ubuntu
[07:15] <mkquist> hey anyone- can u have two swap partitions?
[07:15] <genii> arrow Because the binary program "passwd" runs on linux as well without modification even tho originally it was for unix
[07:15] <mkquist> and it there any advantage if u can?
[07:15] <ant> arrow : cuz its an old unix command i would assume
[07:15] <Madpilot> mr_grump5, OK, so you didn't just nuke the entire harddrive - that was the first thing to check :)

[07:17] <Madpilot> rewati, quit spamming!
[07:17] <ant> lol
[07:18] <|Amon|> genii, that's called /ignore.
[07:18] <rewati> sorry
[07:18] <Moreau> the goggles! they do nothing!
[07:18] <rewati> sorry
[07:18] <ant> !ask | rewati
[07:18] <ubotu> rewati: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[07:18] <rewati> i had problem in my keyboard
[07:18] <genii> |Amon|: Is that what they're calling it these days? ;)
[07:18] <cani> genii, here is the url http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/11456/
[07:18] <ant> rewati : its called food crumbs.. it happens to the best of us
[07:18] <genii> cani OK, I will read it and see what may be the issue
[07:19] <rewati> ant i am not able to install anythin through apt-get
[07:19] <Chapayev> re :)
[07:19] <mr_grump5> Madpilot:nope..how to edit the grub from terminal?
[07:19] <|Amon|> so, where do i start with my sound problem...?
[07:19] <H264> what is a good 64bit IRC client?
[07:19] <Chapayev> ok - all jokes aside - i cant switch screen res down ?!
[07:19] <ant> rewati : why not?
[07:19] <|Amon|> H264, bitchx
[07:19] <cani> i used gparted and it says my windows partition is in /dev/hdc1
[07:20] <arrow> a bit off topic, but I bought a dvd drive with a SATA conection, and I have IDE conection in my computer, is there an adapter that anyone knows of?
[07:20] <Flannel> H264: any client in Ubuntu will be in 64bit as well.
[07:20] <Madpilot> mr_grump5, does that WindowsDualBootHowTo URL not have the information you need?
[07:20] <daziplqa> hi all
[07:20] <mr_grump5> Madpilot:nope
[07:20] <H264> gaim does not really want to work, I don't like it anyway...
[07:20] <daziplqa> i'd like to thank all peaple here that do help others
[07:20] <Chapayev> turn down screen res anyone??
[07:20] <Madpilot> ubotu, grub > mr_grump5
[07:20] <Flannel> H264: GAIM isn't an IRC client.  Try Xchat
[07:21] <goosfraba4u> I did 'sudo chown user /media/drive' but received, "Operation not permitted". How do I change the permissions of a mounted drive?
[07:21] <arrow> daziplqa, I'll second that
[07:21] <Chapayev> nice flannel  thats how ? get answered
[07:21] <Chapayev> i just had to wait long enough
[07:21] <genii> cani grub menu.lst looks OK tho perhaps use tabs  instead of spaces to separate like the other entries. Also maybe remove savedefault for it.

[07:23] <daziplqa> i have a question;
[07:23] <daziplqa> how can i restrict some sites from being opened in ff ??
[07:23] <rewati> ant it say about every file i want to install
[07:23] <Flannel> daziplqa: just in firefox?
[07:23] <daziplqa> ??
[07:23] <daziplqa> ya
[07:23] <genii> cani You can test what partitions can load or not by interrupting grub with ESC then manually tell it for instance to boot from a partition
[07:23] <daziplqa> ya flannel
[07:24] <Flannel> daziplqa: hmm.  You might be able to get some netnanny sort of thing as a plugin.  Why do you only want to restrict them in FF?

[07:25] <ok_kid> hey, everybody, looking for some help:  ok_kid
[07:25] <daziplqa> there are some bad (sex, etc.. ) sites that should be restricted
[07:25] <Flannel> !away > inuyasharenegade
[07:25] <rewati> geni i am getting this error in synaptic : E: /var/cache/apt/archives/libsgutils1_1.21-1ubuntu1_i386.deb: files list file for package `libsgutils1' is missing final newline
[07:25] <saaron> does anyone know a good browser to use? i've tried firefox but its too slow on my shitty computer
[07:25] <Flannel> daziplqa: right, but why do you only want to restrict them from FF?  Someone could just open a different browser or whatever and connect
[07:25] <daziplqa> in IE, it was very easy, what about FF ??
[07:26] <cani> genii, how can i see if it works to read the disk?
[07:26] <ok_kid> i am having the Linux OS trying to start at the first boot, even though there is no OS on my machine....anybody know how to get that off of there?
[07:26] <cani> genii, i can see the disk in gparted, its at /dev/hdc1
[07:26] <daziplqa> no, my brothers will can not do
[07:26] <Chapayev> re :) from xchat
[07:26] <Chapayev> like Gd this is soo much better
[07:26] <cani> genii, i should use hd(2,0) or (hd2,0) as the other entries?

[07:27] <daziplqa> is there higher solution to do to prevent my IP from accept them ??
[07:27] <genii> cani If you see files in /windows directory then ut mounted /dev/hdc1 under that directory with ntfs and you will see whatever was in the partition in the ntfs system
[07:27] <|Amon|> ?
[07:27] <chris_> do virtual hard drives work???
[07:27] <H264> ...
[07:27] <Chapayev> who was it Flannel - respect ! i asked about this too many timez
[07:27] <rewati> ant i hav done that the also its givin the same problem
[07:27] <daziplqa> mmm, where were you go ?
[07:27] <ok_kid> hello, any helpers there?
[07:27] <eV64> !ask
[07:27] <ubotu> Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[07:28] <ok_kid> i did
[07:28] <eV64> ph missed it
[07:28] <ok_kid> no once came back on it
[07:28] <ok_kid> so i tried again
[07:28] <Broady> [17:26]  <ok_kid> i am having the Linux OS trying to start at the first boot, even though there is no OS on my machine....anybody know how to get that off of there?
[07:28] <eV64> ok
[07:28] <ok_kid> trying to get the Linux OS to stop automatically trying to boot, cause i erased the disk it was on.
[07:28] <eV64> so you have a computer with an erased hard drive, and when you power on, linux still tries to boot?
[07:28] <Seveas> Broady, by installing another os...
[07:28] <Chapayev> ok kid so wait till sone else asks - its the latest #ubuntu craze
[07:28] <eV64> oh
[07:28] <Broady> Seveas - not my Q
[07:28] <Seveas> err, ok_kid --^
[07:28] <eV64> grub is still your bootloader
[07:29] <H264> when I try to install xch I get this error: W: Failed to fetch http://ca.archive.ubuntu.com/<longURL>/filename.deb 404 not found
[07:29] <Vogala> My ubuntu live CD wont boot on my new box.  Im assuming it has something to do with a graphics driver for my 8800gts.  Any ideas on how to get ubuntu installed?
[07:29] <cani> genii thats another thing im having trouble, i tried to mount the windows partition
[07:29] <H264> *xchat
[07:29] <eV64> you need to remove grub, going back to windows ? :(
[07:29] <ok_kid> the best way i learn is to do, do i have been practicing, and i mess up things sometimes and work my self into a hole
[07:29] <ant> rewati : pastebin your sources.list
[07:29] <Seveas> H264, try apt-get update before installing. If that doesn't help: switch to anothr mirror
[07:29] <H264> :/
[07:29] <cani> genii, i added this line in fstab: /dev/hdc1	/windows ntfs nls=utf8, umask=0222 0 0
[07:29] <H264> too many updates for tonight
[07:29] <Flannel> daziplqa: check out dansguardian
[07:29] <H264> 150+megs
[07:30] <daziplqa> what ?
[07:30] <H264> and I'm on 56K modem
[07:30] <daziplqa> what dansguardian ??
[07:30] <|Amon|> cani, you should know it's dangerous to write to ntfs
[07:30] <eV64> re-install ubuntu.
[07:30] <ok_kid> where is grub located.
[07:30] <daziplqa> is * ??
[07:30] <Chapayev> i need to do 200+ MB over gprs ?!
[07:30] <|Amon|> from nix
[07:30] <genii> cani OK, so then from a console/terminal do: sudo mount /windows         command and then tell me what it says
[07:30] <chris_> i was messing around with virtualbox and noticed that you can take your virtual harddisk all the way to 2tb i was wondering if it would really work like a 2tb hd
[07:30] <Madpilot> daziplqa, dansguardian is a netnanny-type censorware app
[07:30] <Seveas> H264, tough luck then :)
[07:30] <ok_kid> and about windows, i am experimenting with different linux OS, while keeping windows....
[07:30] <mjbrooks> ant: Hello ant
[07:30] <genii> cani If it is many lines use the pastebin
[07:30] <Chapayev> if ubuntu mails u the cd does it circumvent the update tihng
[07:30] <eV64> ok_kid, http://www.cybertechhelp.com/forums/archive/index.php/t-26320.html may help
[07:30] <Flannel> Chapayev: no.  It mails the same image as you downloaded
[07:31] <Madpilot> Chapayev, no, the Ubuntu CDs are pressed from the same images you download
[07:31] <Chapayev> oh awesome that is so clever
[07:31] <ant> mjbrooks : sup
[07:31] <cani> genii i got this: [mntent] : line 10 in /etc/fstab is bad
[07:31] <cani> mount: can't find /windows in /etc/fstab or /etc/mtab
[07:31] <mjbrooks> ant: got a new system
[07:31] <daziplqa> hey allll
[07:31] <genii> cani Good, this is progress
[07:31] <Chapayev> actually i think buntu is the smoothest partition to running ive seen
[07:31] <ok_kid> hey, thanks, i am going to look at that, but sometimes i have a hard time understanding the instructions.
[07:31] <mjbrooks> ant: HP Pav 6000 series
[07:31] <Flannel> chris_: it cant, unless you had 2tb+ to allow it to use
[07:32] <Chapayev> incl osx
[07:32] <cani> |Amon|, you are saying that i sould mount it as read only?
[07:32] <ant> mjbrooks : tell me you got a youtube page for me?!
[07:32] <eV64> ok_kid, i'll be here a bit longer
[07:32] <|Amon|> cani, yep
[07:32] <rewati> ant i am new to irc can u tell me where shud i paste my source list as i dont want to  flood the main screen
[07:32] <mjbrooks> ant: not yet   still moving data over
[07:32] <Seveas> !pastebin | rewati
[07:32] <ubotu> rewati: pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (be sure to give the URL of your paste - see also the #ubuntu channel topic)
[07:33] <|Amon|> i have a separate fat32 partition to share between nix and doz
[07:33] <cani> |Amon| what should i change to make it read only ?
[07:33] <genii> cani so then, type:   sudo mount -t ntfs -o ro,user,nls=utf8 /dev/hdc1 /windows       and then report
[07:33] <|Amon|> i dont have my ntfs part mounted in fstab
[07:33] <floresc7> hey, anyone know if beryl can run on dapper?  the beryl website said it cant but i have a walk-through here: http://wiki.cchtml.com/index.php/Xgl-Compiz-Dapper
[07:33] <|Amon|> so im not sure
[07:33] <mjbrooks> ant: though I gotta say, I was in Vista for a bit, so I don't think I'll have to reach deep to show frustration ;)
[07:33] <Seveas> mjbrooks, heh
[07:33] <Flannel> floresc7: it can.  See #ubuntu-effects
[07:34] <Mickey> anyone here using e17?
[07:34] <Seveas> !anyone | Mickey
[07:34] <ubotu> Mickey: A large amount of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..."  Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out?
[07:34] <|Amon|> the only reason i keep XP installed is for photoshop (which works like crap with wine) and for reason which is only available for *doz
[07:34] <ant> mjbrooks : got a good video card, wireless?
[07:34] <Vogala> does ubuntu work with nividia 8800gts video cards?
[07:34] <ok_kid> by for now, i thank you much, and i am going to try that.....may be back in a while.
[07:34] <genii> |Amon|: gimpshop :)
[07:34] <floresc7> cool, thanks Flannel
[07:34] <Geoffrey2> can anyone point me to a good primer on the ubuntu sound system?
[07:35] <mr_grump5> i have pasted my grub list here.. could anyone check this  and tell why my comp is not dual botting to xp? http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/11457/
[07:35] <|Amon|> genii, gimp sucks
[07:35] <mjbrooks> ant:yuppers NVIDIA 7400 and no broadcom ;)
[07:35] <rewati> ant i hav pasted it
[07:35] <ant> mjbrooks : :)
[07:35] <ant> rewati : the address?
[07:36] <Mickey> anyone know of any e17 apps?
[07:36] <rewati> ant http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/11458/
[07:36] <eV64> Vogala, it will work, it's whether or not it will support opengl.  It will not support all the features that directx 10 does as far as I know
[07:36] <genii> cani If at console/terminal you type:   sudo mount -t ntfs -o ro,user,nls=utf8 /dev/hdc1 /windows   does it give any messages?
[07:36] <Flannel> mr_grump5: you've got an awful lot of kernels in there.  You know you can remove them via apt, right?  But yeah, that looks like it's correct.
[07:36] <mjbrooks> ant: booted to the Herd 5 live CD and the only issue (other than it's buggy) is that it failed to load the nv drivers and I had to tell it to use a widescreen resolution
[07:37] <ant> mjbrooks : i'm going to wait another month
[07:37] <mr_grump5> Flannel:but it doesn't boot into flannel>?
[07:37] <mr_grump5> Flannel:but it doesn't boot into xp mann..
[07:37] <mjbrooks> ant: for the realease?
[07:37] <ant> rewati : what are you trying to install
[07:37] <Vogala> im assuming im having a driver issue with my 8800 because the live cd will not boot into the graphical desktop like it does on my old box
[07:37] <Flannel> mr_grump5: Right.  Try changing "root" to "rootnoverfy"
[07:37] <cani> genii, i got: mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/hdc1, missing codepage or other error
[07:38] <ant> mjbrooks : yea, not in the mood right now to upgrade
[07:38] <mjbrooks> ant: me too, but I wanted to make sure the wifi worked and edgy doesn't have networkmanager by default I don't think
[07:38] <mr_grump5> Flannel:where?
[07:38] <genii> cani Then it seems to me that hdc1 is not a ntfs partition
[07:39] <rewati> ant thunderbird
[07:39] <genii> cani But try again except omit the utf part
[07:39] <rewati> ant many things are there that i am tryin to install like plugins for eclipse
[07:39] <cani> genni, but i can boot to windows xp with that drive
[07:39] <Chapayev> someone just tell me how to lower my res pls - no sites and wikis (!)
[07:39] <Chapayev> or establish 6x8 as default
[07:39] <Chapayev> right now - it hangs and drops back to login
[07:39] <Chapayev> a tut vobshe ruskiye yest'?
[07:40] <Chapayev> back to xbox f'n lag
[07:40] <mjbrooks> Vogala: Dell 8800?
[07:40] <Flannel> mr_grump5: At the end, with the windows stuff.
[07:40] <ardchoille> Chapayev: You trying to change screen resolution?
[07:40] <Vogala> xfx 8800 gts
[07:40] <Yggdrasil> ?
[07:40] <genii> cani PLs try same command again but with only -o ro,user   instead of -o ro,user,nls=utf8
[07:41] <daya> how many modem do ubuntu supports, can anyone provide me a lists
[07:41] <fghj> !fglrx
[07:41] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[07:41] <daya> i am talking about internal modems?
[07:41] <Flannel>  !hardware | daya
[07:41] <ubotu> daya: For lists of supported hardware on Ubuntu see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupport
[07:41] <cani> genii, i got the same error
[07:41] <giskardd> i found out ubuntu amd64 can't install my wireless driver (64bit) with ndiswrapper. is there a way to switch to linux-386 using the repos on cdrom?
[07:41] <genii> cani OK. Does the directory /windows   exist?
[07:41] <mjbrooks> Vogala: does it give you an error??
[07:42] <|Amon|> genii, why wouldn't you create the directory in /mnt?
[07:42] <|Amon|> instead of on the root
[07:42] <daya> ubotu, thanks
[07:42] <ubotu> You're welcome! But keep in mind I'm just a bot ;-)
[07:42] <Vogala> yes. will reload off the livecd again to let you know exactly what it is saying
[07:42] <genii> |Amon|: That is the original dir he gave as his mountpoint.
[07:42] <cani> yes, is in the same level as bin, debian, hombe, boot, dev, var, etc
[07:42] <|Amon|> oh my bad
[07:42] <mr_grump5> Flannel:when i give give option as xp and try to boot it just shows me   grub menu viz  root ,save default,make active  and chain loader..any ideas?
[07:43] <mr_grump5> Flannel:it boots flawlessly in all other kernals
[07:43] <mjbrooks> |Amon|: some people prefer their windows partition mounted on /windows because it's easier for them.   personally, I prefer to put a link there instead
[07:43] <Flannel> mr_grump5: What?  when you push enter on that option, it just displays the text?
[07:43] <Flannel> mr_grump5: like I said, try changing the "root" to "rootnoverify"
[07:44] <Chapayev> ardchoille?
[07:44] <|Amon|> easy, just type /mnt w tab
[07:44] <|Amon|> er /mnt/w+tab
[07:44] <genii> cani OK. So now, in console/terminal do:  sudo fdisk /dev/hdc       then after:  p   to get a list of partition kinds on your computer for the hard drive. Please paste this to the pastebin. Then do: q     to quit with no changes
[07:44] <mr_grump5> Flannel:ye it just shows me the text..i can just edit
[07:44] <Flannel> mr_grump5: right, you need to edit it.
[07:44] <mjbrooks> |Amon|: as opposed to /w+tab
[07:45] <|Amon|> ln -s
[07:45] <|Amon|> :p
[07:45] <mjbrooks> |Amon|: that's what I said ;P

[07:47] <student_modnar> would running a 64-bit kernel by chance cause the error message No such file or directory to come up when trying to run a program?
[07:47] <cookie> what do you mean?
[07:47] <|Amon|> ant, last year i spilled birthday cake on my keyboard and killed it...
[07:47] <student_modnar> especially a precompiled binary?
[07:47] <|Amon|> its why i only buy 10$ kbs
[07:47] <diginet> ubuntu sites is currently down U_U
[07:47] <|Amon|> :]
[07:47] <diginet> site
[07:48] <genii> cani OK, all is well then and we do have the correct partition. Did you install linux to more than 1 harddrive, or install it to one then switch disks around or something like this?
[07:48] <mjbrooks> student_modnar: no, perhaps you mis-spelled the file
[07:48] <Flannel> mr_grump5: no, does that still not work?
[07:48] <Chapayev> in that moment cook got to irc doofis =- somjetinswrong

[07:49] <mjbrooks> student_modnar: you're trying to execute it?

[07:49] <giskardd> i need help downgrading ubuntu 64bit to 386
[07:49] <student_modnar> mjbrooks: yes, I have chmod'ed it to 0777 just in case

[07:55] <mjbrooks> student_modnar: and you're just tyoing the name of the executable right?  not typing an argument with it to another file?

[07:56] <giskardd> thanks Flannel
[07:56] <student_modnar> mjbrooks: downloaded, untar-gzipped, chmod'ed and then ran
[07:56] <student_modnar> rewati: no, modnar = random backwards, *shrugs*
[07:56] <eV64> ojk007, you can run steam with wine, i  had it setup in edgy a bit ago, search google for some nice guides
[07:56] <reduz> QUESTION: I upgraded to Ubuntu 6.10, and I can't ctrl-alt+ and ctrl-alt- to change screen res (zoom)!! Also I canlt ctrl-alt-f1/2/3/4 to go to a textmode console! How do I fix this?
[07:57] <genii> cani If at console/terminal you type:   sudo mount -t ntfs -o ro,user,iocharset=utf8,umask=000 /dev/hdc1 /windows  does it give some message?
[07:57] <eV64> system>preferences>scren resolution
[07:57] <ojk007> eV64: yeah i am its just laggy as hell, oh im testin herd 5 atm
[07:57] <mjbrooks> student_modnar: maybe it's corrupted?   hmmm   It's boggling
[07:57] <cani> genii, let me try
[07:57] <eV64> ctrl + alt + F1 works for me in edgy!
[07:57] <student_modnar> mjbrooks: I viewed the file in less and it has ELF in it, so I think it's the right format?
[07:57] <rewati> flannel ya it dosent fix it
[07:58] <reduz> eV64, well, I went the upgrade route and now nothing works
[07:58] <Chapayev> ant shld i re-login
[07:58] <MonaLeilani> Is there any way to get Ubuntu to install from a hard drive? Not from a CDROM, not from a network install, etc?
[07:58] <ant> rewati : maybe a broken package?? i dunno
[07:58] <eV64> reduz, have you looked up ubuntu keybinding?
[07:58] <ant> Chapayev : i dont care, its not required as far as i know
[07:58] <reduz> eV64, what is that?
[07:58] <MonaLeilani> I don't have a CD drive
[07:58] <rewati> i have checked in synaptic there is no broken package
[07:58] <MonaLeilani> and I'm about to tear my hair out
[07:59] <Vogala> mjbrooks: sorry im a little slow.  the specific error im getting when trying to boot off the live cd is "Failed to start the X server (your graphical interface).  It is likely that it is not set up correctly.  Would you like to view the X server output to diagnose the problem?"
[07:59] <mjbrooks> student_modnar: the only thing I can think of is that it might be dependant on some other file and that file is missing
[07:59] <cani> genii, do you want me to paste it here?
[07:59] <MonaLeilani> I'm about to give up on Ubuntu all together
[07:59] <genii> cani If only 1 line, yes
[07:59] <ant> rewati : thunderbird comes built in to firefox doesnt it?
[07:59] <mjbrooks> Vogala: and what does the output say  is the problem?
[07:59] <MonaLeilani> Anyone? Please?
[07:59] <cani> actually there are many lines , ill go to the website
[08:00] <|Amon|> where can i start on my sound problem
[08:00] <student_modnar> mjbrooks: that's definitely a possibly, but I can't think as to why it'd say can't find that program name
[08:00] <Chapayev> the way access is built into word
[08:00] <|Amon|> i think ubuntu has the driver installed right and it sees my card in lspci
[08:00] <student_modnar> mjbrooks: usually there's a ton of cryptic error messages :), I almost miss them
[08:00] <|Amon|> and i have alsa and everything installed...
[08:00] <reduz> Upgrading sure was a stupid idea, i should have reinstalled to go from dapper to edgy eft
[08:00] <MonaLeilani> I made a partition, put the installation files on it, and hid all the other partitions
[08:00] <|Amon|> im at a loss
[08:00] <genii> cani OK
[08:00] <MonaLeilani> should boot from it, but it won't
[08:00] <reduz> now a lot of stuff just doesnt work after upgrading to edgy eft
[08:00] <mjbrooks> student_modnar: yeah   it's got me stumped
[08:00] <rewati> ant i dont see it i want to install mozilla thunderbird ant other softwares also
[08:00] <ant> reduz : i bet your keyboard isnt setup right
[08:01] <Vogala> mjbrooks: i am a complete linux noob, but I think it is "Fatal server error: no screens found"
[08:01] <reduz> ant: I fail to see how this has anything to do with the keyboard
[08:01] <|Amon|> rewati, have you tried evolution?
[08:01] <eV64> reduz, looking, sec
[08:01] <makuseru> is there anything like a EQ analyzer like in amarok, but fullscreen?
[08:01] <cani> genii, actually i got the same error msg
[08:01] <eV64> reduz, Ctrl+Alt++ = Switch to next X resolution
[08:01] <eV64> Ctrl+Alt+- = Switch to previous X resolution
[08:01] <|Amon|> evolution is more like outlook and thunderbird is more like outlook express
[08:01] <rewati> amon ya but that dosent apeal me much
[08:01] <|Amon|> np
[08:01] <reduz> eV64, I know, but it just doesnt work
[08:02] <cani> wrong fs type, blabh blah blah
[08:02] <eV64> reduz, maybe copy your home and uninstall after feisty is released?
[08:02] <mjbrooks> Vogala: know how to use the pastebin?
[08:02] <student_modnar> mjbrooks: I guess I'm going to go to src, thanks though
[08:02] <eV64> reduz,  http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=42404
[08:02] <Chapayev> nice - but when i stepped down - im 'sliding' around on a dek thatrs too big ?
[08:03] <Vogala> mjbrooks: no, can you point me to a website to explain?
[08:03] <mjbrooks> student_modnar: wish I could say it was help  ;)
[08:03] <rewati> amon my evolution  dosent show adress while typing names
[08:03] <MonaLeilani> I will paypal someone $10 to help me.
[08:03] <Chapayev> is screen and desktop res separet?
[08:03] <student_modnar> mjbrooks: it is, I don't feel crazy or stupid
[08:03] <eV64> sorry, but off to sleep
[08:03] <reduz> eV64, It is a builtin X11 shortcut, it has nothing to do with gnome
[08:03] <genii> cani OK. When you choose from the grub menu to boot windows, does it begin to boot it at all? When you test the drive to see it boots without the linux, is it in the same ribbon and IDE socket on the motherboard or do you plug it in to be primary master when testing and then switch it to secondary master when seeing if it boots from grub?
[08:03] <Chapayev> strong mona
[08:03] <reduz> eV64, it's not "custom", just builtin, and doesnt work anymore
[08:03] <mjbrooks> Vogala: paste the output at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/ and send me the url you get back
[08:03] <rewati> ant as my apt-get is not workin how can i install softwares
[08:04] <Askar> I have no sound! How can I fix that????
[08:04] <mjbrooks> student_modnar: nope,   definately not you ;)
[08:04] <MonaLeilani> I need help
[08:04] <MonaLeilani> please.
[08:04] <MonaLeilani> Pleaaase.
[08:04] <Chapayev> sorry mona if i had enoug blow for another day or so..
[08:04] <reduz> eV64, it worked in any linux distro for the last 15 years
[08:04] <reduz> eV64, now in edgy edft doesnt work anymore
[08:04] <cani> genii, it never tries to boot, i goot an error imeadetly, the hard drives are both primary drives each on a separate ribbon
[08:04] <trond> I just reformatted my harddrive to ext3 from ntfs. Now I can not write to my harddrive without being root. The line in fstab looks like this: # Entry for /dev/hdc6 :
[08:04] <trond> /dev/hdc6 /media/yne ext3 defaults,errors=remount-ro 0 1
[08:04] <trond>
[08:04] <trond> sollutions?
[08:05] <MonaLeilani> Installing Ubuntu from a hard drive. Why is that so difficult?
[08:05] <genii> cani when you installed Windows, was it the master on the second ribbon as it is now?
[08:05] <Vogala> mjbrooks: I cant copy and paste from the computer im having trouble with.  Should I just manually type it all in?
[08:05] <makuseru> is there anything like a EQ analyzer like in amarok, but fullscreen?
[08:06] <|Amon|> how can i troubleshoot this sound problem... i get absolutely no sound and ive checked to see if it sees my sound card with lspci (it does) and alsa is installed and seems to be working?
[08:06] <mjbrooks> Vogala: no that would be too much to type   lol    1 sec
[08:06] <cani> genii, i installed windows before i installed ubuntu, so the drive was the primary drive in one ribbon, the other drive was not there
[08:06] <ant> reduz : how can you not see it "maybe" a keyboard problem.. if you have your keyboard setup "wrong" the ctrl key will not represent the ctrl key.
[08:06] <genii> cani Good, that is what I wanted to know LOL
[08:06] <reduz> ant: it represents the ctrl key in any application
[08:06] <ant> thus no shortcuts will work for you.
[08:07] <mjbrooks> Vogala: look for an error before it says no screens found
[08:07] <genii> cani So then when you test to see windows booting, how do you go about this?
[08:07] <cani> genii, thanks i apreciate the time you take to help me
[08:07] <cani> genii, i went to the bios and changed the startup disk
[08:07] <ant> reduz : if you have your keyboard setup to some international keyboard settings the keys are moved around.. has nothing to do with any apps
[08:07] <Vogala> mjbrooks: just saw this "(EE) No devices detected."
[08:08] <bullgard4> Using Ubuntu, how can I type unicodes into my keyboard?
[08:08] <reduz> ant it's US english and is setup as that, and no keys are moved around. alt-ctrl-backspace can kill the xsever, but the other shurtcuts dont work anymore
[08:08] <mjbrooks> Vogala: what was it trying to do just before that?
[08:08] <makuseru> is there anything like a EQ analyzer like in amarok, but fullscreen?
[08:08] <reduz> seems i'm not alone, but no answer was provided - http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=2271109
[08:09] <trond> My fstab is ok=
[08:09] <trond> ?
[08:09] <ant> reduz : well then i stand behind you, shouldnt of upgraded.
[08:09] <Vogala> mjbrooks: the line immediately above that is " (==) Using config file: "/etc/X11/xorg.conf" "
[08:09] <Matthai> hi, anybody knows what is going on with ubuntu website?
[08:10] <Matthai> "Unable to connect to database server"
[08:10] <mjbrooks> Vogala:which release is it?
[08:10] <crimsun> Matthai: known issue, being addressed currently.
[08:10] <Vim> I can't find my current bookmarks.html in Edgy Eft.  In which folder is it?  (This is my first posting ever in any IRC channel)
[08:11] <Vogala> mjbrooks: I just downloaded it today, 6.10 I think?
[08:11] <Broady> pfft download
[08:11] <Broady> order it through the mail!
[08:11] <Broady> it was suprisingly quick
[08:11] <MonaLeilani> I already downloaded it...
[08:11] <ant> Broady : like less than an hour quick?
[08:11] <genii> cani Windows has it's own version of grub.lst in a way. It has in there the disk # and partition #. You need to go into windows. Edit this file to include a second entry just like the first entry except put the disk as 1 instead of 0.If there is a slave on the first ribbon, it should be 2 instead of 1. When you change in bios the boot drive, windows still sees it as grub equivelent of...
[08:11] <genii> ...hd(0,0) instead of it's new hd(2,0) or so.The file you need to edit is called boot.ini and it is in the root of windows c:\ drive
[08:11] <MonaLeilani> And I don't have a CD-ROM DRIVE!
[08:12] <Broady> hehe ant
[08:12] <Broady> nah, maybe a week or 2?
[08:12] <ferronica> Is there any application like Nero Cover designer for ubuntu 6.06 LTS Dapper Drake
[08:12] <Broady> good for free!!
[08:12] <mjbrooks> ant: do you know if edgy has a boot option for safe video like feisty does?  I haven't booted edgy from CD n awhile
[08:12] <ant> mjbrooks : sure does
[08:12] <genii> mjbrooks: They all do
[08:12] <mjbrooks> ant: thanks
[08:13] <Chapayev__> re:) sttill swimming on my desktop yall
[08:13] <mjbrooks> genii: I never noticed till Feisty ;)
[08:13] <Chapayev__> i just cant logoff - #ubuntu  is addictv
[08:13] <mjbrooks> shows how awake I have to be to do installs   lol
[08:13] <ferronica> Is there any application like Nero Cover designer for ubuntu 6.06 LTS Dapper Drake
[08:13] <Vogala> mjbrooks: i have tried the safe video option with the same results
[08:13] <mjbrooks> Vogala: hmm
[08:13] <reduz> let's see if anyone else knows
[08:14] <ferronica> Is there any application like Nero Cover designer for ubuntu 6.06 LTS Dapper Drake
[08:14] <reduz> QUESTION: I upgraded to Ubuntu 6.10, and I can't ctrl-alt+ and ctrl-alt- to change screen res (zoom)!! Also I canlt ctrl-alt-f1/2/3/4 to go to a textmode console! How do I fix this? (hint this is a builtin command of xfree86/xorg and has been there in any linux distro for the past 15 years)
[08:14] <cani> genii, ok i will restart and change that, ill try to connect from windows, thanks
[08:14] <Vogala> mjbrooks: i read some forums about driver support upfront for the 8800 series cards.  is there a way to upgrade the live cd with the drivers from nvidias website?
[08:15] <mjbrooks> Vogala: update the CD to boot from?
[08:15] <genii> cani I'll be here
[08:15] <ant> Vogala : just goto the recovery kernel and apt-get 'em
[08:15] <makuseru> is there anything like a EQ analyzer like in amarok, but fullscreen?
[08:16] <reduz> makuseru, why do you want full screen?
[08:16] <ant> lol
[08:16] <makuseru> because its neat
[08:16] <reduz> makuseru, if what i'm asking for would work, you could have your equalizer full screen :)
[08:16] <genii> reduz ctrl- ctrl+ only works if you have more than one resolution in xorg.conf  As for the consoles I am having a similar issue
[08:17] <reduz> genii, I do have a ton of resolutions in there
[08:17] <reduz>         SubSection "Display"
[08:17] <reduz>                 Depth           24
[08:17] <reduz>                 Modes           "1280x1024" "800x600" "640x480" "320x240"
[08:17] <reduz>         EndSubSection
[08:17] <reduz> I have plenty :)
[08:17] <makuseru> why would i want the EQ fullscreen? it dosnt move like the analyzers do
[08:17] <ferronica> Is there any application like Nero Cover designer for ubuntu 6.06 LTS Dapper Drake
[08:17] <Chapayev__> im bleeding but my ubuntu is set
[08:18] <reduz> Also I added, just to make sure
[08:18] <reduz>   Option "HandleSpecialKeys" "Always"
[08:18] <reduz>   Option  "DontZoom" "false"
[08:18] <reduz>   Option  "DontVTSwitch" "false"
[08:18] <reduz> Still those dont work at all
[08:19] <ferronica> Is there any application like Nero Cover designer for ubuntu 6.06 LTS Dapper Drake
[08:19] <trond>  I just reformatted my harddrive to ext3 from ntfs. Now I can not write to my harddrive without being root. The line in fstab looks like this: # Entry for /dev/hdc6 :   /dev/hdc6 /media/yne ext3 defaults,errors=remount-ro 0 1
[08:20] <Vogala> ant: i can get to a terminal, but am not familiar with how to download drivers with apt
[08:20] <genii> reduz Sure it's ctrl-alt  and not just ctrl? Also, for ctrl-alt-f1/f2 etc try for an experiment ctrl on right side of keyboard then alt on left side
[08:20] <ant> !nvidia | Vogala
[08:20] <ubotu> Vogala: To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[08:21] <reduz> genii, no go
[08:21] <reduz> genii, alt-ctrl backspace works fine, so it's not a problem of key mapping
[08:21] <Madpilot> ferronica, for making CD labels? Try glabels.
[08:21] <reduz> genii, the thing is disabled for some reason
[08:21] <reduz> Ubuntu really gave me hope when I used Dapper, that a proper linux distro with proper packages and no issues existed, but after upgrading from Dapper to Edgy Eft, i can see it's the same crap as in debian :(
[08:21] <genii> reduz OK I'm outta immediate ideas then :)
[08:22] <cani5> genii, i should look at the boot.ini right?
[08:22] <cani5> genii, i have [operating systems]
[08:22] <cani5> multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(1)\WINDOWS="Microsoft Windows XP Professional" /fastdetect /NoExecute=OptIn
[08:23] <naught101> how do I get jack to start on start up?
[08:24] <genii> cani Good. multi is the ide controller number. Copy this entire line and change multi(0) to multi(1) in the new line
[08:24] <ant> naughty :  system > admin > sessions
[08:25] <genii> cani Hmm actually, it may be disk(0) but you can make a 3rd entry even if you like
[08:25] <ant> naught101 : otherwise it'll be crontab
[08:25] <genii> cani I always forget which is which but you can even put all combos if you like, each on a separate line
[08:26] <cani5> genii, im confused now, i have : multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(1)\WINDOWS="Microsoft Windows XP Professional" /fastdetect /NoExecute=OptIn
[08:26] <cani5> multi(1)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(1)\WINDOWS="Microsoft Windows XP Professional" /fastdetect /NoExecute=OptIn
[08:26] <reduz> genii, I just noticed I can still do it by using xvidtune
[08:27] <genii> cani5 Yup
[08:27] <koala^> hi there, someone I know has just installed ubuntu 5.10  how do you change the font size in the desktop display?
[08:27] <naught101> ant: sessions has nothing about adding a script on startup, and I don't know the command anyway :/
[08:27] <cani5> genii, can i restart it now?
[08:27] <genii> cani5 You can have any number of these lines, one for each operating system that windows understands
[08:27] <ant> !crontab | naught101
[08:28] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about crontab - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[08:28] <ant> blah
[08:28] <genii> cani5 Add a line multi(0)disk(1)rdisk(0)partition(1)\WINDOWS="Microsoft Windows XP Professional" /fastdetect /NoExecute=OptIn
[08:28] <Menasim1> I can't open PHP files in my local server
[08:28] <genii> cani5 Then try reboot
[08:28] <Menasim1> after installing apache perl
[08:28] <ferronica> Madpilot: actually i wanna program like nero cover designer
[08:28] <naught101> I don't want to run jack daily, I want to run it all the time
[08:28] <Frogzoo> koala^: sys -> prefs -> fonts
[08:29] <cani5> genii, ok, thanks , im rebooting now
[08:29] <Madpilot> ferronica, I've never used/seen nero cover designer - what does it do that glabels doesn't?
[08:29] <trond> Is there a gui frontend for cronjob?
[08:29] <ant> naught101 : you can have it run at startup
[08:29] <koala^> Frogzoo thanks :)
[08:29] <trond> It definately should be at least
[08:29] <ferronica> Madpilot: to print CD Label, i am using A4 size paper sticker paper
[08:30] <Frogzoo> ferronica: glabels?
[08:30] <Madpilot> ferronica, glabels has templates to print CD labels, I use it all the time
[08:30] <arooni> hey folks
[08:30] <arooni> my mysql is broken
[08:30] <arooni> help!!!
[08:30] <ferronica> Madpilot: what type of paper do you use
[08:30] <arooni> heres error
[08:30] <arooni> http://pastie.caboo.se/48694
[08:31] <Menasim1> any way to get back the old apache2.conf?
[08:31] <Madpilot> ferronica, North American 8.5x11, but I'm pretty sure there's an a4 template too - is there an Avery # for your sticker sheet?
[08:31] <Frogzoo> ferronica: glabels
[08:31] <Menasim1> ?
[08:31] <genii> crap just caught an error in his boot.ini file where he changed the partition number when he pasted the line in ...grrrrrrrrrrr
[08:32] <ferronica> Madpilot: In my A4 size paper two Circle in cutout predefined
[08:32] <ferronica> Madpilot: which one should i use
[08:32] <genii> hangon thats not right
[08:33] <Madpilot> ferronica, aside from being A4,your sheets sound identical to the letter-sized ones I use. One sec, let me start glabels
[08:33] <Madpilot> ferronica, start glabels, go File->New, switch the first dropdown to A4, look thru the list until you find a template that looks right
[08:34] <ferronica> Madpilot: ok i choose Avery 8676: CD/DVD LABELS
[08:34] <Madpilot> ferronica, scroll down to the Avery 8676 template. glabels has literally thousands of templates included.
[08:35] <ferronica> Madpilot: ok i choose Avery 8676: CD/DVD LABELS
[08:35] <Madpilot> ferronica, good, then hit OK, and start drawing shapes/adding text, whatever
[08:35] <ferronica> Madpilot: now proble is that how to align printer to start from that circle to print
[08:36] <Madpilot> ferronica, glabels has very, very accurate alignment, assuming your printer isn't totally screwed up.
[08:36] <Menasim1> how can I get an old backup of a file
[08:36] <Vogala> mjbrooks: just found http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=376483  , gonna try that real quick. it is exactly the problem i am having
[08:37] <ferronica> Madpilot: my A4 sheet look same as you see in glabel, two circle where i wanna to print
[08:37] <Madpilot> ferronica, good - you might want to run a test print on blank regular paper, just to double-check the size & alignment
[08:37] <ferronica> Madpilot: but when i give command to print , my printer start printing from left
[08:38] <mjbrooks> Vogala: I'll cross my fingers for you ;)
[08:38] <andruk> in feisty, the package php5-myqli throws a notice, where should i go to report this?
[08:38] <mjbrooks> ant: now I have to decide my partitioning scheme ;)
[08:39] <andruk> *php5-mysqli
[08:39] <haze76> Is there more software available in Synaptic in 6.10 and 6.06 than the Feisty Fawn herd 5 release?

[08:48] <haze76> I thought that was one of the most important aspects of Ubuntu....
[08:48] <naught101> ant: yeah, sorry, what's up?
[08:48] <haze76> Is 6.06 more localized than 6.10 ?
[08:48] <mjbrooks> Vogala: just glad you don't want emacs, I'd have to use the pastebin to tell you how to do it   lol
[08:48] <ant> naught101 : i was mistaken, init.d is the file you want to edit.

[08:53] <willg> elodsson: what do you want your login window to be?
[08:53] <elodsson> ubuntu
[08:53] <ant> mr_grump5 : have you looked at !grub?
[08:54] <willg> elodsson: hmm, I don't know anything about xubtunu or kubuntu
[08:54] <elodsson> willg: and also by starting up the system it is not the brown ubuntu-thingie, it is the kubuntu-logo
[08:54] <willg> right
[08:54] <mjbrooks> !grub > mr_grump5
[08:54] <Geoffrey2> where would I look to make sure there's an ALSA driver installed for my sound chip?
[08:55] <mr_grump5> ant:can't figure it out..i can boot into ubuntu without any fuss...but when i give xp as option  nothin happens
[08:55] <ant> !sound | Geoffrey2
[08:55] <willg> have you removed the xubuntu and kubuntu deskop packages?
[08:55] <ubotu> Geoffrey2: If you're having problems with sound, first ensure ALSA is selected, by double clicking on the volume control, then File -> Change Device (ALSA Mixer). If that fails, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Sound - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting - http://alsa.opensrc.org/index.php?page=DmixPlugin - For playing audio files, see !Players and !MP3

[08:58] <ant> mr_grump5: i think (not sure) but grub loads itself into hd0,0.. your trying to load window from there, try hd0,1
[08:58] <dougie> what device would my usb thumb drive be?
[08:58] <Chapayev__> <- under the influence and on a desktop too big for me

[09:00] <ant> mr_grump5 : just change windows from loading from hd0,0 to load from hd0,1... i think grub itself loads from hd0,0

[09:02] <mjbrooks> mr_grump5: see the line in your grub for XP Pro that says  "root (hd0,0)"?
[09:02] <Madpilot> ferronica, that'll depend on your printer - by default glabels will allow a bit of overflow - it's by design, not a bug
[09:02] <Chapayev__> a topic i can get behind if i did not have to sudo gedit ecvry 10 secs
[09:02] <weijie902> i cant  get webpages to load in my laptop at work, the dhcp seems to be ok, eth0 is up, pings time out

[09:02] <Vogala> mjbrooks: that seems to work, let me try it again now :)
[09:03] <mjbrooks> mr_grump5: change the line in your grub for XP Pro that says  "root (hd0,0)" to "rootnoverify (hd0,0)"
[09:03] <dougie> i think sda might of been my swap partition

[09:04] <Geoffrey2> nope....more of the same...mplayer plays videos fine off the hard drive, but play something embedded in a web page, and no sound whatsoever
[09:05] <mjbrooks> mr_grump5: that might work if you have a recovery partition put there by the manufacturer
[09:05] <ferronica> Madpilot: i am using this site ----> http://www.cdcovers.cc/view/266438/cd1/american-pie---the-naked-mile-widescreen
[09:05] <ferronica> Madpilot: Is this okay
[09:05] <r4nge> what would this line do.. sed 's/ //g' file
[09:05] <Madpilot> ferronica, sure, if it gives you a usable image to drop into glabels, go for it
[09:06] <mr_grump5> mjbrooks:i have the changed sugested by anti and u let me reboot and see
[09:06] <ferronica> Madpilot: how to align correctly photo in page
[09:06] <Deep> !serverstatus
[09:06] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about serverstatus - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[09:06] <Deep> hmm (:
[09:06] <mjbrooks> !anything
[09:06] <ferronica> Madpilot: I am using DESMAT A4ST-2CD
[09:06] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about anything - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[09:06] <Deep> Haha
[09:06] <ferronica> Madpilot: I am using "DESMAT A4ST-2CD"
[09:07] <mjbrooks> !nothing
[09:07] <ubotu> Saying "It says nothing", "It does nothing" is generally not very useful for troubleshooting. Please be as specific as possible: if you see a black screen, say so, if you see a shell prompt, say so, if you see an !error message, say so - Also, most !CLI commands don't print anything when they succeed, but only when they fail.
[09:07] <Vogala> mjbrooks: still no go. lol. not sure what to do other than wait to see if the issue gets worked out in an upcoming release
[09:07] <ferronica> Madpilot: This is my paper name that i am using
[09:07] <Madpilot> ferronica, just try a couple of prints on plain paper, to make sure your printer is as closely aligned as you can get it
[09:07] <mjbrooks> Vogala: you can try Feisty if you don't mind bugs
[09:07] <Deep> Well, i guess this question has been answered quite a few times, but, what's happend to the ubuntu.com-server? (:
[09:07] <Madpilot> ferronica, you might want to look through glabel's stock of templates, there might be one that matches your paper exactly
[09:07] <weijie902> i cant  get webpages to load in my laptop at work, the dhcp seems to be ok, eth0 is up, pings time out, urls are translated to IPs but they wont load
[09:07] <ferronica> Madpilot: ok you mean i have try to get right one
[09:07] <Deep> Aah, no. Nothing. It's working now. (:
[09:07] <mEck0> Hi! Where can I get Feisty Fawn? I have searched on ubuntu.com, but haven't found :/
[09:07] <ferronica> Madpilot: what paper do you use???
[09:08] <Deep> !feisty
[09:08] <ubotu> The next version of Ubuntu (7.04; codenamed "Feisty Fawn"), it should be released in April 2007. At the moment it is alpha.

[09:10] <Snurglewozzle> I should be scared
[09:10] <Vogala> mjbrooks: im lost enough as it is with a stable version.  Ill let people who know what they are doing figure it out. :p
[09:10] <dxdt> haha fear the mods wow
[09:10] <dxdt> that was a fast response
[09:10] <Vogala> mjbrooks: ive got ubuntu up and running on my old computer, so I can tinker with it to try and learn the ropes some.
[09:10] <Deep> !myself
[09:10] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about myself - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[09:11] <Deep> : D
[09:11] <mjbrooks> Vogala: yeah, but you can boot to the liveCD and see if it might work in advance of the release
[09:11] <mike_cribben1> howdy, I'm having problems trying to play .m4a files in Rhythmbox. I installed the faad plugin for gstreamer but I still get an error message when trying to import music to the library.
[09:11] <Madpilot> dxdt, I'm active in the channel, and the ops call gets attention anyway - and ops here lurk, the better to kickban from hiding ;)
[09:11] <Vogala> mjbrooks: boot the liveCD of fiesty your saying?
[09:11] <dxdt> I knew ops lurked, but I didn't know they lurked like that I guess--I dunno lol
[09:11] <mjbrooks> Vogala: sure   don't install it   just try the CD
[09:12] <ferronica> Snurlglewozzle: yes what happend
[09:12] <weijie902> i cant  get webpages to load in my laptop at work, the dhcp seems to be ok, eth0 is up, pings time out, urls are translated to IPs but they wont load, but Samba works 100%

[09:12] <mjbrooks> Vogala: see if your card works with it
[09:12] <Madpilot> ferronica, ignore that idiot, he's been removed from the channel
[09:12] <Vogala> mjbrooks: i dont see fiesty on the download section of ubunto's website.  do you have a link to a list of mirrors?
[09:12] <ant> mjbrooks : mr_grump5 hasnt come back, maybe i hosed his grub?

[09:13] <Madpilot> ferronica, wrong user - and yes, I'm in Canada, so US Letter is standard here
[09:14] <Vogala> !feisty
[09:14] <ubotu> The next version of Ubuntu (7.04; codenamed "Feisty Fawn"), it should be released in April 2007. At the moment it is alpha. Schedule: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/FeistyReleaseSchedule - Specifications (goals): https://features.launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/feisty - Help and support in #ubuntu+1 (NOT #ubuntu)
[09:14] <mjbrooks> ant: he's probbably trying to figure out mIRC
[09:14] <unnicked> hey
[09:14] <weijie902> i cant  get webpages to load in my laptop at work, the dhcp seems to be ok, eth0 is up, pings time out, urls are translated to IPs but they wont load, but Samba works 100%
[09:14] <ferronica> Snurlglewozzle: US letter and A4 are of same size
[09:14] <unnicked> I want to know if Kubunto edgy has Beryl?
[09:14] <Madpilot> ferronica, they're close to the same size, but not exactly
[09:14] <unnicked> by default on the original DVD?
[09:14] <weijie902> unnicked, it can if you install it
[09:14] <Madpilot> unnicked, no, not by default. No version of Ubuntu does.
[09:14] <ferronica> Madpilot: Okay
[09:14] <weijie902> unnicked, beryl works with kde too
[09:15] <Madpilot> Anyway, I need sleep - good night, all
[09:15] <ferronica> Madpilot: which one should i use A4
[09:15] <Madpilot> ferronica, if your actual paper is A4, then use A4
[09:15] <rwxr-xr--> damn.. my Lan Admin.. Restricted Download  Speed.. can i get more speed anyhow?
[09:15] <unnicked> I mean, if I'm able to install it only having the DVD, I don't have internet
[09:15] <mjbrooks> nn madmonkey
[09:15] <mjbrooks> nn Madpilot
[09:15] <weijie902> Madpilot, what about ubuntu ultimate edition lol
[09:15] <ferronica> Madpilot: yes mine paper is A4
[09:15] <clouder`grr> What's wrong with democracyplayer <IP_ADDRESS>  It won't start up, it says 'An unknown error has occured while finishing start up."
[09:15] <Madpilot> weijie902, doesn't count, it's not official.
[09:15] <Madpilot> later all
[09:15] <weijie902> Madpilot, cya
[09:15] <Geoffrey2> hmm, interesting.....Sound Preferences says my sound card is an Intel ICH6, while the tail command returns SigmaTel STAC9752,53
[09:16] <weijie902> i cant  get webpages to load in my laptop at work, the dhcp seems to be ok, eth0 is up, pings time out, urls are translated to IPs but they wont load, but Samba works 100%
[09:16] <_mirra> before I kill myself, could someone explain to me why one ubuntu system would have the package for webmin listed, but another one wouldnt (meanwhile they have exactly the same apt sources list, and have both been updated and upgraded)
[09:16] <unnicked> weijie902: am I able to install it having the DVD? after standard installation?
[09:16] <mjbrooks> weijie902: yeah while we're at it we can have home edition, business edition and a melt your vid card beryl edition
[09:17] <weijie902> mjbrooks, beryl did not melt my video card and iits so much better than vista aero
[09:17] <foutrelis> _mirra: Download a .deb package from http://www.webmin.com/
[09:17] <mjbrooks> weijie902: lol   yeah, but   it probably at least kept your coffee warm  ;)
[09:18] <dxdt> Geoffrey2: Don't know if this helps, but my system does the same weird thing.  I've only ever used the intel though.  In fact, I'm listening to music with it right now.  Don't know why it does that either.  YOu have a dell laptop like me by chance?
[09:18] <_mirra> foutrelis, i am going to..but any idea what that would be
[09:18] <_mirra> and if it isnt listed..i wont get updates right?
[09:18] <weijie902> at 54 Celsius? nah
[09:18] <weijie902> i cant  get webpages to load in my laptop at work, the dhcp seems to be ok, eth0 is up, pings time out, urls are translated to IPs but they wont load, but Samba works 100% please help
[09:18] <foutrelis> _mirra: I also don't have webmin in apt's list on my Ubuntu Server installation. Don't know why though. :\
[09:18] <davidelv> Any idea of why Aero require so much, on my Radoen 9200 64MB, Vista isnt able to flip windows, but beryl works smoothly. Its like MS have a deal with the HW producents
[09:18] <unnicked> another thing
[09:19] <unnicked> what is better for using Beryl, Gnome or KDE?
[09:19] <_mirra> i have 2 vps's and 2 desktops..all but one vps has it...
[09:19] <rwxr-xr--> damn.. my Lan Admin.. Restricted Download  Speed.. can i get more speed anyhow? i m Really thanksfull if someone can help.. want to download fiesty. but with this service i cant download.. so anyone can help me with how get more speed from lan server?
[09:19] <weijie902> davidelv, welcome to microsoft
[09:19] <mjbrooks> unnicked: whichever one you prefer
[09:19] <weijie902> unnicked, yeah
[09:19] <Chapayev> re coiockoo :)
[09:19] <davidelv> unnicked: Gnome, because thats what I prefer :D
[09:19] <unnicked> lol
[09:19] <Chapayev> still swimmin on my desktop
[09:20] <Tom_Kun> davidelv: due to 13 different layers of coding having to run before anything is displayed on screen, in addition to having to tackle microsoft code that has been more or less redundant since windows nt 4? Let's face it. Microsoft really needs to start building code from scratch.
[09:20] <Vogala> mjbrooks: thank you for all your help! im downloading feisty now and am gonna try to sleep now.  ill pick this up tommorow once its done downloading :)
[09:20] <_mirra> foutrelis, how do you install from a .deb again?
[09:20] <foutrelis> _mirra: I 'll do some searching and if I find anything I 'll let you know :)
[09:20] <mjbrooks> Vogala: no  good luck
[09:20] <foutrelis> _mirra: dpkg -i foo.deb :)
[09:20] <_mirra> foutrelis, thank you
[09:20] <mjbrooks> Vogala: s/no/np/;
[09:21] <davidelv> Tom_kun: Like in Vienna?
[09:21] <mjbrooks> brb   re-re-beer
[09:22] <exs> what can i do when I get this error ? "bash: /etc/apt/sources.list: Permission denied"
[09:22] <Chapayev> im seriously within an in of ODing waiting for an ans
[09:22] <dxdt> exs, use sudo, you don't have permission  otherwise
[09:22] <davidelv> Tom_kun> I mean if its true, S must know it
[09:22] <exs> dxdt:  I tried that, it still says the same
[09:22] <unnicked> thanks davidelv
[09:22] <unnicked> im off
[09:22] <dxdt> ?  what are you trying?  like sudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list?
[09:23] <jmg> exs: sources.list isnt an executable
[09:23] <exs> "sudo wget http://people.ubuntu.com/~jriddell/kubuntu-packages-jriddell-key.gpg  sudo -s  apt-key add kubuntu-packages-jriddell-key.gpg  echo "deb http://kubuntu.org/packages/amarok-145 edgy main" >> /etc/apt/sources.list" <<< this is what it says over at amarok for installing it properly
[09:23] <Geoffrey2> dxdt, Dell Inspiron 6000
[09:23] <jmg> exs: you cant do that because the bash shell doesnt have perms to write to the file
[09:23] <exs> jmg:  what shall i do then?
[09:24] <jmg> sudo -i
[09:24] <jmg> to get a root shell
[09:24] <jmg> or sudo bash -c "blah"
[09:24] <ant> exs : sudo nano /etc/apt/sources.list
[09:25] <exs> ant: now what
[09:25] <dxdt> dxdt, yeah that's what I have.  And I have both audios listed.  I always just use the intel one.  Everything has always worked for me with that.
[09:25] <[StingRay] >  Hi all. I just reinstalled due to broken HDD. Can I use the kernel I compiled from my previous install on this PC?

[09:25] <ubotu> LAMP is an acronym for Linux-Apache-MySQL-PHP.

[09:34] <rwxr-xr--> foutrelis: trying to download fiesty from last 4 days :< still i just download 510mb.
[09:34] <xug> do you think lack of ram can cause 6.06-server to reboot when it tries to boot for the first time? do you think making a /boot-partition could help? can the problem be in grub, or is it in the system? grub gives no error
[09:34] <arooni> is it a known issue in edgy that with sony laptops... they'll just randmoly shut down.. and shut down as well when you pull out the ac cord (even though theres battery life)/

[09:38] <bicycledaave> xug:have you tried to delete the "splash" option and to figure out at which step the it stop and turn to reboot
[09:38] <arooni> anyone know about sonys and ubuntu?
[09:38] <arooni> sony laptops
[09:38] <rwxr-xr--> foutrelis: still just downloaded 510mb.. still shows around 6 hours to complete it :)
[09:39] <master5o1> im learning php
[09:40] <master5o1> --->
[09:40] <steven43126> arooni running ubuntu on a sony fine here
[09:40] <arooni> steven43126: damn... cuz my sony laptop
[09:40] <arooni> is shuting down randomly
[09:40] <xug> bicycledaave no i havent. thank you for the tip! ill try it when i get home from work :). the safe mode works neither and there's no splash option though
[09:41] <steven43126> arooni check the logs
[09:41] <steven43126> see if there is anything to give a clue
[09:41] <steven43126> when booting also try the kernel options noapic acpi=off notsc nolapic, just to eliminate common problems
[09:42] <arooni> how do i install mysql
[09:43] <arooni> steven43126: um.... where do i find those
[09:43] <Chapayev> help me klnock tghe size of this desktop down a notch ?
[09:43] <foutrelis> arooni: sudo aptitude install mysql-server-5.0 (for 5.x) sudo aptitude install mysql-server-4.1 (for 4.x)
[09:43] <bicycledaave> xug:I'm not familiar with safe mode, does it boot with the same processes as in the normal mode? FYI:i'm running feisty on my 500Mhz P3 with 192MB laptop.
[09:44] <shinichizio> I have a question about which java update I should download.
[09:44] <steven43126> arooni, less /var/log/messages, and less /var/log/syslog
[09:45] <steven43126> will let you browse the log files
[09:45] <arooni> steven43126: Mar 17 14:24:51 LilArooni gnome-power-manager: (chasetoys) Shutting down computer because battery is critically low (RIDICULOUS... cuz i have 98% battery left
[09:45] <Geoffrey2> I have the latest version of mplayer installed....when playing any video file locally, all is well...when I, for instance, play a video on www.imbd.com, I get audio for the leading ad, then none at all while the trailer plays
[09:45] <steven43126> arooni, to enter the kernel command options upon boot in grub press e to edit the command line, select te line containing the kernel and add those options the the end, then press b to boot
[09:46] <arooni> steven43126: how do i fix the fact that gnome is signaling i have critical battery when i really have like 95% left
[09:46] <xug> bicycledaave well.. um, i dont know :) i think it just boots with different parameters. my point was there's no splash option on the safe boot mode and nothing differs from normal boot. it just reboots :|
[09:46] <steven43126> arooni, in that case for a temporary fix take alook at /etc/init.d
[09:46] <rwxr-xr--> loOkiNg for a way .. anyhow i get more speed from restricted server. mY Admin Restricted Download Speed. but there is a problem my LAN server iz on Linux.. if anyone can Help..  So, uh, there's various linux updates for javascript here; Linux RPM, Linux, Linux x64, and Linux x64 RPM. What dang one do I get?
[09:48] <arooni> steven43126: huh im still a little confused
[09:49] <arooni> steven43126: so what am i reallyu looking forward should i be grepping etc??
[09:49] <Chapayev> i hearde its time for the stupids to get some ..?
[09:49] <Chapayev> still on a giant desktop here
[09:49] <bicycledaave> xug:yeah, you're right, so you can see at which step it refused to work?also you can check /var/log/messages, and /var/log/syslog
[09:50] <foutrelis> shinichizio: I think there are packages for java. You don't need to download anything manually :)
[09:50] <foutrelis> !java
[09:50] <ubotu> To install a Java compiler/interpreter on Ubuntu, look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Java - For the Sun Java runtime install sun-java5-jre from the !Multiverse repository. Enable the backports repository on Edgy to install sun-java6-jre
[09:50] <arooni> steven43126: you there?
[09:50] <shinichizio> Oh. Neat.
[09:51] <foutrelis> ^.^
[09:51] <shinichizio> That's good, downloading a 15MB thing on my dialup would have been kinda lame...
[09:52] <steven43126> arooni, sorry cd to /etc/init.d
[09:52] <foutrelis> shinichizio: Hmmm. You will have to download sun-java5-jre. You just don't have to do it manually. aptitude will take care of everything :)
[09:52] <billy> good morning earthlings.
[09:52] <steven43126> this is the place that stores all the programs that can be set to run at boot
[09:52] <xug> bicycledaave output is "kernel /boot/blabla (eol) initrd /boot/blabla (eol) savedefault (eol) boot" ZZAP REBOOT :) im not sure does it even start to unpack the kernel :o. ill check the logs, but i think theres no markings
[09:53] <Chapayev> Hi guys - im havin trouble with my desktop - screen is 600/800 - but desktop itself is 12/1600
[09:53] <steven43126> ls, and look for anything that looks like it has anything to do with power, and try a sudo /etc/init.d/nameofservice stop
[09:53] <shinichizio> Oh. Er. Okay. Now to find whatever aptitude is.
[09:53] <Chapayev> i wanna stop sliding atround
[09:53] <xug> bicycledaave the only way to get into shell is to boot from cd's rescue mode :|
[09:53] <steven43126> if that solves your and you can configure to not start next time you boot problem you know it's one of the daemons
[09:54] <foutrelis> shinichizio: You use Ubuntu right? (not Kubuntu etc.) You can open Synaptic :)
[09:54] <steven43126> aroman, sorry im in the middle of something so answers will be sporadic unless someone else can help
[09:54] <steven43126> arooni, even*
[09:54] <shinichizio> Oh. Okay. Sorry. I'm not nearly high enough level of a geek to use Linux competently. I just got a new box from Freegeeks and it's got Ubuntu on it. Durrrr.
[09:55] <billy> shinichizio, what you trying to do?
[09:55] <foutrelis> shinichizio: You 're doing fine :) You 'll learn how to use it soon ;)
[09:55] <shinichizio> I'll probably be in here asking basic (if not stupid) questions in the near future.
[09:55] <shinichizio> Okay. There's a website/game, Nexuswar. The javascript links don't do anything (which is crippling) so I'm troubleshooting. I figure updating java is a fairly obvious one to try.
[09:55] <billy> shinichizio: i know i've asked my share of dumb questions.  feel at home, my brotha.
[09:56] <arooni> steven43126: how do i make those services not start the next itme?  you metnioed something about installing something?
[09:56] <billy> shinichizio: using Firefox?
[09:56] <arooni> steven43126: 1) how do i install it....2) what do i lose if i dont have gnomes power manage rinsalled 3) is there a better power manager than gnomes stuff
[09:56] <thelance> hey quick question where would i go to get the original Edgy eft beta artwork,splash,login, sounds?
[09:57] <thelance> i liked the edgy eft stuff
[09:57] <shinichizio> billy: yup.
[09:57] <foutrelis> shinichizio: Hmmm. I was talking about Java, not Javascript. My bad :( Firefox has it built-in, there shouldn't be any problems. Sorry for the misunderstanding on my part.
[09:57] <thelance> more then this outdated dapper stuff
[09:57] <NJigelli> my 5yr old 40x cd rom works better than a brand new 16x benq dvd rom...
[09:57] <shinichizio> foutrelis: I didn't know there was a difference. My bad. But so now what?
[09:58] <billy> shinichizio:  have you installed java runtime environment?
[09:58] <shinichizio> billy: I have no idea, so I'm going to assume no.
[09:58] <foutrelis> shinichizio: If you're using Firefox the javascript links should work. Tell me the url where the problem is so I may check it out :)
[09:59] <mirra> hey..are there any reliable methods or software to optimize mysql performance?
[10:00] <billy> shinichizio:  used a "terminal" yet?
[10:00] <mirra> (ex: eaccelerator for php)
[10:00] <shinichizio> foutrelis: http://www.nexuswar.com/map/connect.do (I think you need to be playing for that to make sense though.)
[10:00] <Chapayev> ppl someone help me resize mydesktop  pls
[10:00] <Chapayev> ?!
[10:00] <shinichizio> billy: Er. No. That's different than the command line, right?
[10:00] <thelance> hey whats a good program for gnome to manage login screens?
[10:01] <billy> shinichizio: well, yeah, pretty much.  there may be a technical difference.  but yeah, it's very similar.  Applications > Accessories > Terminal
[10:02] <payal> hi all
[10:02] <shinichizio> billy: I've used that to fiddle with my modem settings (to no avail, but it did do what I asked it)
[10:02] <payal> I want to give passwords to 30-40 users, how do I do it
[10:03] <payal> the password program of ubuntu does not accept --stdin
[10:03] <bicycledaave> xug: you mean that after showing "boot"  it reboot? without any infomation?
[10:03] <payal> any ideas
[10:03] <billy> shinichizio: you can download and install java runtime environment very easily from the terminal.  if you know the name of the package, it's much easier than sorting through Synaptic, though sorting through Synaptic is good for its own reasons sometimes.
[10:03] <shinichizio> Er, okay.
[10:04] <shinichizio> billy: So what's the name? :D Or does it look like I should sort through Synaptic?
[10:04] <foutrelis> shinichizio: Javascript worked fine for me at that site. :\
[10:05] <billy> shinichizio:  if you want to install it through the terminal, type this and away you go!  `sudo apt-get install sun-java5-jre sun-java5-plugin``
[10:05] <payal> anyone can help me out ?
[10:05] <foutrelis> shinichizio: Althought it did require to have an account which I don't :\
[10:05] <shinichizio> foutrelis: waaah.
[10:05] <shinichizio> billy: oh, thanks.
[10:05] <xug> bicycledaave yes :o
[10:06] <xug> bicycledaave or if it shows up something i have no time to notice it because the reboot is instant
[10:07] <Chapayev> ppl someone help me resize mydesktop  pls
[10:07] <shinichizio> foutrelis: Yeah, it's an in-game problem. Maybe I've just got firefox set up wrong. If I remember right, it redirects you to a different page when you click it. I get the same problem at hotmail (but hotmail sucks, so I was unconcerned.)
[10:07] <billy> shinichizio: you don't have javascript disabled do you.  or are you surfing with the "NoScript" extension?
[10:08] <mirra> hey..are there any reliable methods or software to optimize mysql performance???
[10:08] <shinichizio> billy: I've got the button checked to enable javascript, and I don't think I'm using any extensions. I don't appear to HAVE any extensions.
[10:09] <foutrelis> shinichizio: I wish I could help further but I can't think of anything that could be causing trouble :(
[10:10] <Menasim1> I want to reinstall ubuntu
