[02:46] <ArrenLex> lucas9000: If you don't want to install 32-bit firefox in a chroot, try nspluginwrapper.
[02:46] <Tomcat_> G3N3SIS: Well, give us some info. What card, what have you tried, what are the problems?
[02:46] <SuperQ> r00t__: huh?
[02:46] <SuperQ> r00t__: get and put?
[02:46] <lucas9000> arren: i will search the forums for that, ty
[02:46] <noelferreira> can you help me Tomcat_?
[02:47] <G3N3SIS> I am having Sound Problems, can anyone assist me?
[02:47] <kbrooks> G3N3SIS: don't demand help!
[02:47] <SuperQ> r00t__: man sftp
[02:47] <Tomcat_> G3N3SIS: But then, Open Source is about choice, so if you want to use SuSE, that's your decision. ;)
[02:47] <r00t__> then ?
[02:47] <kbrooks> G3N3SIS: stop repeating. Tomcat_ offered help
[02:47] <G3N3SIS> did he?
[02:47] <r00t__> SuperQ,  then ? i type password
[02:47] <kbrooks> G3N3SIS: yes.
[02:47] <r00t__> then how do i copy
[02:47] <G3N3SIS> Oh didn't see that sorry.
[02:47] <suacy> which is the nicest graphical diff?
[02:47] <SuperQ> r00t__: read the man page
[02:47] <txfirehawk> how do i see the new hard drive i installed?
[02:47] <r00t__> SuperQ,  if you dont know about it its ok
[02:47] <r00t__> what page ?
[02:47] <r00t__> huh?
[02:47] <SuperQ> r00t__: man sftp
[02:48] <lucas9000> exit
[02:48] <G3N3SIS> Alright, well I have a VIA 8237.  It works on XP, fails on Ubuntu.  I love Ubuntu, just I need sound to function.
[02:48] <lucas9000> oops lol
[02:48] <Tomcat_> noelferreira: I still don't know where you got Firefox/Thunderbird and what your console output/problems are...
[02:48] <kbrooks> SuperQ: wrong command
[02:48] <SuperQ> r00t: http://www.eos.ncsu.edu/remoteaccess/man/sftp.html
[02:48] <G3N3SIS> Originally it started by me being able to only hear the tribal sound on login.  Now I can't even hear that.
[02:48] <kbrooks> r00t__: scp is the command. man page: man scp
[02:48] <noelferreira> i just use a fresh edgy install and i get no output Tomcat_
[02:48] <Tomcat_> G3N3SIS: Settings in Prefs=>Sound correct?
[02:48] <G3N3SIS> I did some file editing, then it stopped, so I replaced those files back to normal how they were before, and I reupdated the modules, downloaded all the GStreamer plugins.
[02:48] <G3N3SIS> It's not picking up my card.
[02:48] <noelferreira> process goest to sleep Tomcat_
[02:49] <SuperQ> kbrooks: either sftp or scp work
[02:49] <G3N3SIS> Though, when I cat /proc/asound/cards it picks it up, and infact tells me exactly what it is.
[02:49] <justin_> Where is the gconf file again? -- /etc/???
[02:49] <SuperQ> kbrooks: the sftp protocol extention is more efficient afaik
[02:49] <G3N3SIS> I can use Alsa, and nothing is muted.  I can't however use Gnome-Mixer
[02:49] <r00t__> kbrooks, i am using put :P
[02:49] <Tomcat_> justin_: ~/.gconf-2 or something. In your home.
[02:50] <r00t__> kbrooks, thanks by the way
[02:50] <r00t__> kbrooks,  Uploading /home/r00t-fck/Desktop/eggdrop1/eggdrop.conf to /home/pavel/eggdrop/[eggdrop.conf]
[02:50] <r00t__> /home/r00t-fck/Desktop/eggdrop1/eggdrop.conf                                                 0%    0     0.0KB/s - stalled -
[02:50] <Tomcat_> G3N3SIS: Try cat <somesoundfile> >/dev/dsp... does that get you anything?
[02:50] <SuperQ> hahahaha.. eggie!
[02:50] <SilentWarrior> any other way to make the "make" command work, have build-essencials
[02:50] <G3N3SIS> Would I have to put my file in any special spot?
[02:50] <justin_> Tomcat_: No, I edited something to add XGL and it was in /etc .. but I forget where -- oh my
[02:50] <kbrooks> SuperQ: don't tease him like that
[02:50] <justin_> Because now my X is nothing but gibberish.. heh
[02:50] <eyalw> bye
[02:50] <Tomcat_> justin_: /etc/X11/xorg.conf?
[02:51] <txfirehawk> anyone?  i cant seem to locate my 2nd physical hdd in the gui
[02:51] <Tomcat_> SilentWarrior: make works if you have build-essential
[02:51] <suacy> is there a way to install custom modules without use module-assistant?
[02:51] <ProN00b> is there something like kuake for gnome ?
[02:51] <justin_> Tomcat_: Nope not that either I know where that is.. maybe it is in X11 though,let me see
[02:51] <G3N3SIS> Yeah, it gets me a whole bunch of beeps
[02:51] <SilentWarrior> tomcat_ see the link i gave, maybe its a diferent problem, but i am new and cant get to it
[02:51] <Tomcat_> SilentWarrior: You need the linux-headers-<something> package for that.
[02:51] <r00t__> and file uploaded . thank you pplz
[02:52] <Pelo> SilentWarrior,   you're missing dependecies,   rund ./configure first to know what dependencies you are missing
[02:52] <SilentWarrior> tomcat_  how ?
[02:52] <Tomcat_> G3N3SIS: Nope, just cat it to the sound device.
[02:52] <justin_> Well.. is there a way to search for files in console?
[02:52] <G3N3SIS> how would I do that?
[02:52] <Tomcat_> SilentWarrior: Download linux-headers-2.6.17-10 and all dependencies, copy it to the machine, install it.
[02:52] <blameless> justin_: locate or find
[02:52] <Tomcat_> G3N3SIS: As I said, "cat <soundfile> >/dev/dsp"
[02:53] <justin_> blameless: ok
[02:53] <txfirehawk> can anyone help me locate my new hdd?
[02:53] <txfirehawk> i dont see it in the file manager
[02:53] <G3N3SIS> I did that, but I don't hear anything.
[02:54] <kbrooks> CAN SOMEONE HELP ME OUT??????????????/
[02:54] <Tomcat_> txfirehawk: Install gparted and look for it there. You have to put the device into /etc/fstab to see it.
[02:54] <kbrooks> look. i want 3d on my intel 82815. that's all i want.'
[02:54] <Pelo> kbrooks,  someone will help you OUT in a second
[02:54] <G3N3SIS> all it says is root@root - desktop:/home/*****# cat song.wav >/dev/dsp
[02:54] <blameless> why bother?  the 815 is so underpowered anyway
[02:54] <jrib> txfirehawk: is it listed if you type 'sudo fdisk -l'?
[02:54] <Tomcat_> G3N3SIS: And what output from the sound card?
[02:55] <G3N3SIS> How would I find that out?
[02:55] <Pelo> kbrooks,  what is your problem ?
[02:55] <DevC> AnthonyG still isn't back :o man either he didn't fix it or he is fighting it now :o
[02:55] <SilentWarrior> tomcat_ #   linux-headers-2.6.17-10:

[02:55] <SilentWarrior> This package provides kernel header files for version 2.6.17, for sites that want the latest kernel headers. Please read /usr/share/doc/linux-headers-2.6.17-10/debian.README.gz for details
[02:55] <SilentWarrior>  is this?
[02:55] <Tomcat_> SilentWarrior: Correct.
[02:55] <SilentWarrior> :)
[02:56] <Tomcat_> G3N3SIS: Turning on the speakers, listen? :)
[02:56] <G3N3SIS> Oh, I don't hear anything when I cat it there
[02:56] <G3N3SIS> Yeah, nothing.
[02:56] <midgetg0at> Apparently some my wine files were f'd up as "sudo wine steam.exe" worked - but i was strongly advised to not run wine as root...so no idea how it got locked down like that, but attempting to just reinstall it all...
[02:57] <suacy> Hey, I am desperately struggling through module problems in a vanilla kernel...
[02:57] <Tomcat_> G3N3SIS: "ls -l /dev/dsp*" <- Console output for that?
[02:57] <G3N3SIS> k one sec
[02:57] <jsf_> how come my boot cd just stopped working?
[02:57] <jsf_> it doesn't boot any more
[02:58] <jsf_> just does nothing and boots from hd

[02:58] <G3N3SIS> that's my text output, no audio out put
[02:58] <G3N3SIS> at the top where the volume control is, it claims that i either don't have all the GStreamer plugins or my device is not detected.
[02:58] <G3N3SIS> I installed all the plugins from Synaptic on GStreamer
[02:59] <G3N3SIS> It isn't detecting my sound card from System<Prefs<Sound either.\
[02:59] <Tomcat_> G3N3SIS: Try "sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop"... does that do anything?
[02:59] <odat> hi everyone
[02:59] <odat> what the heck is wrong with gnomebaker
[02:59] <Tomcat_> G3N3SIS: What is the output of "ls -l .as*"?
[02:59] <odat> doesn't burn anything
[02:59] <suacy> module-assistant build fglrx worked (after some changes) and module-assistant install fglrx claims it worked, but there's modprobe doesn't find it, and there's nothing about fglrx in /lib/modules... would there be a problem copying the files in there manually, and updating modules.dep to mirror the equivalent line in my fglrx-working kernel?
[02:59] <G3N3SIS> Reading package lists... Done
[02:59] <G3N3SIS> Building dependency tree... Done

[03:00] <G3N3SIS> k sorry
[03:01] <G3N3SIS> Ideas Tomcat?
[03:01] <Tomcat_> G3N3SIS: As I said... what's the output of "ls -l ~/.as*"?
[03:02] <SilentWarrior> tomcat_ finally some progress, same error but this time says Error 1 instead of Error 2
[03:02] <robotgeek> hmm, does anyone know offhand how to fix the "sudo timestamp too far in future" problem
[03:02] <G3N3SIS> no such file or directory
[03:02] <G3N3SIS> under ls: /root/.as*
[03:02] <SilentWarrior> tomcat_ lets get to Error 0 shall we ?
[03:02] <Tomcat_> SilentWarrior: Any output?
[03:02] <Tomcat_> G3N3SIS: Don't do it as root... use your normal user, or use "ls -l /home/<youruser>/.as*"
[03:02] <SilentWarrior> tomcat_ rt2570.ko failed to build
[03:03] <G3N3SIS> k
[03:03] <adil> sup guys
[03:03] <SilentWarrior> tomcat_ and [module]  Error 1
[03:03] <Tomcat_> G3N3SIS: What kind of card is it? brand, type?
[03:03] <Tomcat_> SilentWarrior: Nothing else in the output? No warnings or errors?
[03:04] <ProN00b> is there something like kuake for gnome ?
[03:04] <Tomcat_> robotgeek: Try sudo -K
[03:04] <Tomcat_> ProN00b: What is kuake?
[03:04] <SilentWarrior> tomcat_ nope, just the same as before (http://pastebin.ca/265132) with error beeing Error 1
[03:04] <G3N3SIS> No such file or directory.
[03:04] <britt> guys, on a terminal, how do i get a console (like tty3) to login automatically?
[03:04] <G3N3SIS> As my self.
[03:04] <britt> is it in inittab?
[03:05] <britt> or event.d
[03:05] <ProN00b> Tomcat_, apt-get it
[03:05] <Tomcat_> SilentWarrior: Mh... you might need the linux-source-2.6.17 package as well.
[03:05] <G3N3SIS> Hey pro, do you think you could also be of assitance?
[03:05] <SilentWarrior> tomcat_ can i get that in the ubuntu cd ?
[03:05] <G3N3SIS> My sound card isn't working in Ubuntu, but it works in windows.  I'm not even allowed into Gnome-Mixer
[03:05] <Tomcat_> ProN00b: Heh... nice. But I don't know about such an app.
[03:06] <Tomcat_> SilentWarrior: Probably, yes.
[03:06] <Tomcat_> G3N3SIS: brand, model of sound card?
[03:06] <G3N3SIS> VIA, 8237
[03:07] <Tomcat_> G3N3SIS: Does "lspci" list something that looks like your sound card?
[03:07] <G3N3SIS> Supported under Southbridge category and it would be sudo modprobe snd-via82xx.
[03:07] <G3N3SIS> Yes, it does.
[03:07] <Tomcat_> G3N3SIS: "lsmod | grep snd-via82xx" <-- output of that?
[03:07] <G3N3SIS> It lists my multimedia Audio controller
[03:07] <Jin> just a quick question, is updating the kernel in Ubuntu a difficult process?
[03:07] <ArrenLex> Jin: No.
[03:08] <Tomcat_> Jin: If you're using the official repositories, no. Else, kind of. :)
[03:08] <G3N3SIS> No output
[03:08] <G3N3SIS> just goes to next line in terinal
[03:08] <robotgeek> Tomcat_: hmm, i was debugging a question for my friend over the phone, it did not work in the same terminal. it worked when he opened another terminal.
[03:08] <Tomcat_> G3N3SIS: "sudo modprobe snd-via82xx"
[03:08] <errorlevel> I'm trying to install ubuntu from within Gentoo.  I can't get debootstrap to build, though since I don't have dpkg and other debian utilities.
[03:08] <G3N3SIS> same thing. next line.
[03:08] <Tomcat_> G3N3SIS: Try "cat <soundfile> >/dev/dsp" again.
[03:09] <Tomcat_> robotgeek: So, is it fixed? You usually need a terminal with sudo capabilities, but I'm not so sure about that...
[03:09] <G3N3SIS> This time no mad beepage, but it's stil quiet
[03:10] <Tomcat_> G3N3SIS: Mad beepage? Did you forget the '>' symbol before "/dev/dsp"?
[03:10] <robotgeek> Tomcat_: yes, i had suggested the same thing to him, but it did not kill the timestamp till he opened another window
[03:10] <G3N3SIS> nope, it's there
[03:10] <SilentWarrior> tomcat_ cant find it on cd nor the net, only other stuff related to it
[03:10] <Ron> hey guy
[03:10] <Ron> s
[03:10] <Tomcat_> SilentWarrior: It's available in my install... should be somewhere...
[03:10] <Ron> I'd like to disable CPU freq. scaling when on AC power, any clues
[03:10] <Ron> ?
[03:10] <Tomcat_> G3N3SIS: "lsmod | grep snd-via" again?
[03:11] <BadKitty> Hi folks!
[03:11] <SilentWarrior> tomcat_ in mine too, but it needs to download off the net, and i dont have net on that pc
[03:11] <SilentWarrior> tomcat_ i am trying to install the net card drivers xD
[03:11] <Tomcat_> SilentWarrior: In that case, find the file, download it somewhere else and then copy it over... no other way. :)
[03:11] <BadKitty> Does anyone know if a belkin router would keep a log file about who had logged into the router?
[03:12] <Pelo> Ron,  I assume you checked the power management options in system > admin ?   then check the forum
[03:12] <G3N3SIS> Yup, nothing Tomcat_
[03:12] <Tomcat_> BadKitty: Check the web interface, shouldn't it have some option for that?
[03:12] <minerale> what's the default audio device in ubuntu? "Alsa", "esd", "oss" ?
[03:12] <Pelo> minerale,  alsa
[03:12] <con-man> om
[03:12] <Tomcat_> G3N3SIS: "sudo modprobe -v snd-via82xx", output?
[03:12] <BadKitty> Tomcat: No i can't find it
[03:13] <Tomcat_> minerale: esd I think.
[03:13] <con-man> i am unable to install ati drivers on edgy. it keeps saying unknown architecture
[03:13] <BadKitty> It has a list of CURRENT users, but not a log that I can see
[03:13] <Tomcat_> BadKitty: In that case, I guess not. ;)
[03:13] <Tomcat_> con-man: Are you using the official packages?
[03:13] <G3N3SIS> Nothing TC
[03:13] <con-man> the one off of ati's website

[03:13] <justin_> Where can I see a list of XORG errors? -- where is the log file?
[03:14] <Tomcat_> G3N3SIS: :-( Sorry, I'm out of ideas now... it should load the driver, but it doesn't... it doesn't say what's wrong... weird.
[03:14] <Tomcat_> G3N3SIS: Try "dmesg | grep snd-via"...
[03:14] <minerale> pelo: where can I read about the difference of the video outputs: "X11, xv, gl"
[03:15] <G3N3SIS> nothing.
[03:15] <Pelo> minerale,  I do not know
[03:15] <Jural> Question for forcing transparency on a window with beryl what do I use, I belive XGL b4 was alt+scrollwheel
[03:15] <con-man> thanks ubotu
[03:15] <con-man> i <3 bots
[03:15] <Tomcat_> G3N3SIS: Sorry then... no idea. :\
[03:15] <G3N3SIS> screw this, i'm gonna attempt a reinstall.
[03:15] <Tomcat_> Jural: Same, Alt+Scroll
[03:15] <G3N3SIS> If that fails well ugh
[03:15] <justin_> So does anyone know where X's logfile is kept? -- for a specific user..
[03:15] <jerp> justin, https://launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/+source/xorg/+bugs
[03:16] <SilentWarrior> i think i might just crash ubuntu, wtf
[03:16] <justin_> jerp: That is X bugs
[03:16] <justin_> :P
[03:16] <Tomcat_> justin_: /var/log/Xorg.0.log
[03:16] <justin_> ahhh
[03:16] <Pelo> justin_ there is a logviewer in the admin menu
[03:16] <justin_> thanks Tomcat_
[03:16] <Tomcat_> justin_: Xorg runs on root, so it will be only there.
[03:16] <justin_> Pelo: Would be nice if I could actually see it, I can't actually get into X :)
[03:16] <Tomcat_> justin_: Look for (EE) lines in there... that will show what's wrong.
[03:17] <minerale> where can I read about the difference of the video outputs: "X11, xv, gl"
[03:17] <minerale> (just trying to decide what settings to put for mplayer )
[03:17] <Pelo> minerale,  the setting for what y ou are using , most likely  X11
[03:18] <Pelo> justin_,    /var/log/Xorg.0.log
[03:19] <G3N3SIS> Tomcat_ still there?  I'm in the install live cd and I hear sound perfectly fine.
[03:19] <G3N3SIS> I think it was just an install error / bug.
[03:20] <G3N3SIS> I should get to reinstalling now, to enjoy Linux in it's prime!
[03:21] <justin_> "attempting to re-init radeon hardware" and "insufficient" memory for hardare cursor.. when I try to run Beryl, it flash like 2 times and goes right back to GDM.. :( -- the info for the "re-init radeon" is "II" and "WW" for the mouse problem ... what could it be?
[03:22] <racarter> how do you add a samba share?
[03:23] <britt> 'smbmount //SERVER/share /media/foo'
[03:23] <Pelo> justin_,  sound like a problem for  #xgl
[03:23] <killown> how I do to enable direct render for may card fx500 ?
[03:24] <knight> hi how can i reduce in any application without reducing system sound?
[03:24] <SpacePuppy> killown: is that a gforce card?
[03:24] <justin_> knight: If you take down master sound with all apps, it is probably set to OSS instead of ALSA..
[03:24] <SilentWarrior> tomcat_ hi, downloaded, installed, now it gives the error i had before, the number 2.... Error 2
[03:24] <killown> SpacePuppy yes
[03:24] <knight> justin_, ok

[03:25] <sigp239> my sound is messed up.  sounds stutter on an on forever.
[03:25] <sigp239> how do I fix it?
[03:25] <txfirehawk> how do i give vncserver a password for remote login?
[03:25] <hybrid> txfirehawk: it should be your user login
[03:26] <Tomcat_> SilentWarrior: Sorry, no idea... maybe there's info in the READMEs that came with the source, but it should work somehow...
[03:26] <txfirehawk> let me try, thank you
[03:26] <ski-worklap> wtf, totem can't play an mp3 i give it, says it doesn't have the necessary codecs?
[03:26] <Tomcat_> !codecs | ski-worklap

[03:26] <hybrid> Tomcat_: +1
[03:26] <DarkED> Uh, hi, I'm trying to install ubuntu and when i use partition magic to resize my ntfs partition it gives me "Too many errors" and won't do the resize
[03:26] <justin_> Last small question..
[03:27] <BadKitty> DarkED: Is there anything on the drive that you must keep?
[03:27] <DarkED> So i did a chkdsk and it found a bunch of errors and fixed them. goody. so i tried pm again and it gave the same error...
[03:27] <justin_> Do you need compiz to use Beryl? - or does XGL work regardless of which one you choose?
[03:27] <DarkED> BadKitty: yep, LOTS of stuff =/.
[03:27] <SilentWarrior> anyone has wireless usb card running on ubuntu ?
[03:27] <chris_> can anyone help me with an ntfs problem?
[03:27] <sigp239> why do sounds mess-up sometimes?  like there will be a desktop beep or whatever, but it will keep repeating over and over again/
[03:27] <knight> justin_, but it doesnt work
[03:27] <hybrid> SilentWarrior: which card?
[03:27] <ski-worklap> hybrid, why would i use totem when mplayer supports justabout everything? (not a flame, just curious)(
[03:27] <nolimitsoya> !wifi | SilentWarrior
[03:27] <DarkED> BadKitty: i would back it up, but i simply dont have the DVD's or the space on my external to backup over 20gig
[03:27] <ubotu> SilentWarrior: Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs
[03:27] <hybrid> chris_: if you ask
[03:27] <knight> justin_, could you tell how to do?
[03:27] <nolimitsoya> !anyone | SilentWarrior
[03:27] <ubotu> SilentWarrior: 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?
[03:27] <BadKitty> DarkED: Well thats no good. My only suggestion is to copy your information to another disk, and then zero out your drive, reinstall and then copy back over
[03:28] <hybrid> ski-worklap: you asked, i preffer mplayer as well, compiled but thats me
[03:28] <BadKitty> DarkEd: Yah thats a problem
[03:28] <britt> i need for a console, like tty4 (or ttyS1) to automatically login
[03:28] <DarkED> BadKitty: so i should just copy everything and pop the windows disc in and deep format it?
[03:28] <ski-worklap> hybrid, right, thanks
[03:28] <ski-worklap> hmm, is there no w32codecs package for ubuntu?
[03:28] <hybrid> britt: change your run level to 3
[03:28] <britt> is there anyway i can do that in /etc/event.d (i use upstart)
[03:28] <hybrid> ski-worklap: ppc or x86?
[03:28] <ski-worklap> (even in multiverse)
[03:28] <ski-worklap> x86
[03:28] <SilentWarrior> thing is...cant solve the problem for the general question, so, would ask for the especific one from someone who already installed same driver has i need to install
[03:28] <BadKitty> DarkED. I think you may have to actually zero out your disk. Is it a WD, Maxtor, Seagate?
[03:28] <DarkED> hmm well okay, if its bad sectors will a low-lvl format help that?
[03:28] <hybrid> ski-worklap: there should be
[03:29] <knight> justin_, ive changed setting to alsa in xmms and mplayer still if i change sound of one other is affected
[03:29] <DarkED> BadKitty
[03:29] <britt> hybrid: in the indivdual entry for the console, i didnt know each console could change runlevels
[03:29] <DarkED> sorry...
[03:29] <ski-worklap> i get "it's referred to by another package, but has no installation candidate"
[03:29] <txfirehawk> hybrid,   - no dice, i tried my user password
[03:29] <ski-worklap> which is weird
[03:29] <DarkED> BadKitty: its a laptop drive, 60gig Hitachi/IBM travelstar
[03:29] <SilentWarrior> hybrid conceptronics 54 mb usb adapter
[03:29] <sigp239> why do sounds mess-up sometimes?  like there will be a desktop beep or whatever, but it will keep repeating over and over again/

[03:30] <BadKitty> DarkED: I'm not too sure... you could try a deeper format, but it may have to be zeroed :-(

[03:30] <DarkED> BadKitty: how do I 'zero' a drive?
[03:30] <errorlevel> Woo!  I'm getting debootstrap to work from within Gentoo. =)  It tooks some editting of its Makefile and an altered MAKEDEV script from an existing Debian installation to do it, but it is working. =)

[03:30] <ski-worklap> jrib, i have seveas's repo in my sources.list
[03:30] <chris_> hybrid: my slave ntfs drive is known as hdb, but when i try to mount it, it says invalid argument?
[03:30] <hybrid> SilentWarrior: read up on ndiswrapper and it should work out
[03:30] <matthew_> disk kill or killdisk...something like that will zero out your drive and then write randomness over the zeroes
[03:30] <hybrid> chris_: how are you mounting i?
[03:31] <jrib> ski-worklap: which sections?
[03:31] <BadKitty> DarkED. I'v only had to do it a few times. My disc came with a disk to do it. it was Maxblast for a maxtor drive... there should be some different software for you IBM disk
[03:31] <ski-worklap> ah
[03:31] <chris_> hybrid: i've tried both ntfsmount and the built in ubuntu mount
[03:31] <ski-worklap> jrib, yeah i just had the one for flash, changing to all. thankx
[03:31] <DarkED> BadKitty: Oh... nah, this drive came with my laptop, so I didn't get a cd for it... crap
[03:31] <jrib> ski-worklap: np
[03:31] <sigp239> why do sounds mess-up sometimes?  like there will be a desktop beep or whatever, but it will keep repeating over and over again/
[03:31] <DarkED> See, this is why I hate linux on laptops, its a complete crapshoot
[03:31] <ankan_> excuse me....how do I get my dapper to work with my new Samsung Digimax digital camera...when I connect it...it tries to load up its own drivers but gives an error - An error occurred in the io-library ('Unspecified error'): Could not query kernel driver of device.
[03:32] <DarkED> if your laptop came with xp yer pretty much screwed...
[03:32] <BadKitty> DarkED: Well you might try a full reformat that could work too, did you just to a quick format/
[03:32] <hybrid> chris_: is it in your fstab?
[03:32] <loxety> greetings
[03:32] <DarkED> BadKitty: last time I reinstalled XP i didnt even do a format, just reinstalled over the old XP to keep files...
[03:32] <Pelo> ankan_,  look up your camera model number in the forum, someone may already have posted a solution
[03:32] <BadKitty> DarkED: Nah mine came with winXp and it worked great... actually my laptop just got stolen
[03:33] <DarkED> BadKitty: im sorry to hear that for you, my GOOD laptop just died so i know how you are feeling =(
[03:33] <chris_> hybrid: how do i go about finding that? im new at viewing ntfs on linux
[03:33] <knight> do any1 know how to change sound of apps without affecting other?
[03:33] <BadKitty> DarkED: does the drive still boot though
[03:33] <ankan_> Pelo: i will try that..thnks
[03:33] <DarkED> BadKitty: Yep, im in winxp on this drive right now
[03:33] <DarkED> everything seems to work a-ok

[03:41] <nolimitsoya> Kervan, still a bit scetchy though...
[03:42] <nolimitsoya> Kervan, if you are looking for a way to share files with windows id suggest making a ext2/3 partition, and install ext2ifs for windows

[03:46] <justin_> Well anyways, if anyone has a Radeon 7000... spare yourself headaches and stay away from Beryl :P
[03:46] <nolimitsoya> justin_, that sound weird... sure you wherent just missing the right driver?
[03:46] <justin_> matthew_: No, Gnome
[03:46] <hybrid> OMG UCLA WON!

[03:46] <nolimitsoya> zoidberg, yes
[03:46] <matthew_> justin_, so, what DE are you using now?
[03:46] <justin_> nolimitsoya: No apt-get replaced something the wrong way mesa-srawst or something
[03:46] <justin_> matthew_: Gnome :D
[03:47] <matthew_> justin_, so...why is it faster?
[03:47] <justin_> Apps start in 1 second compared to 8-9
[03:47] <nolimitsoya> justin_, that mesa stuff is software opengl. no wonder its slow ;)
[03:47] <dee7o> hey guys it's my first day using ubuntu and for some reason i have no sound. i think my dvd drive isn't working either
[03:47] <zoidberg> nolimitsoya: i did that and i get this error "-bash: ./pandora.sh: /bin/bash^M: bad interpreter: No such file or directory"
[03:47] <matthew_> justin_, lol
[03:47] <dee7o> can anyone give me a hand because i am totally unfamiliar with it

[03:47] <justin_> now.. im going to worship my X
[03:47] <nolimitsoya> zoidberg, then im of in the deep end :)
[03:47] <dee7o> hi
[03:47] <justin_> thanks guys.
[03:48] <matthew_> dee7o, hello...what's the problem?
[03:48] <Lam_> !newsgroup
[03:48] <ubotu> There are Ubuntu newsgroups via NNTP at news.gmane.org
[03:48] <dee7o> matthew as i tell u i can get my sound card working and i think my dvd drive might also be undetected
[03:48] <zoidberg> hybrid:i still cant get the .sh file to run
[03:48] <matthew_> dee7o, bad soundcard, hmm?
[03:48] <hybrid> hmm weird
[03:48] <dee7o> i am using a virtual machine to run the os but i dont know if that could be a problem
[03:49] <zoidberg> hybrid: i did sudo -i, and i did ./file.sh and it says no permission
[03:49] <dee7o> the sound is still working fine on my host os
[03:49] <hybrid> brb i need to find my cell
[03:49] <matthew_> dee7o, are you using qemu or what?
[03:49] <nolimitsoya> dee7o, that could be it :)
[03:49] <G3N3SIS> Anyone without sound ?
[03:49] <G3N3SIS> I think I know your answer!
[03:49] <G3N3SIS> It works for me now so.
[03:49] <dee7o> i actually dont know what qemu is sorry
[03:49] <matthew_> dee7o, nolimitsoya has it right
[03:49] <nolimitsoya> dee7o, boot the live cd and see if it works :)
[03:49] <billytwowilly> If I want dpkg to try and fix partially installed packages how do I do that?
[03:49] <dee7o> i did that too
[03:49] <dee7o> no sound :)
[03:49] <Lam_> what's a good newsgroups client? preferably one that is QT based, but doesn't have to be
[03:50] <matthew_> billytwowilly, sudo dpkg --configure -a?
[03:50] <dee7o> and i cant mount anything to the dvd drive
[03:50] <matthew_> billytwowilly, w/o the question mark....
[03:50] <matthew_> billytwowilly, not totally sure about that, though
[03:50] <billytwowilly> matthew_: that appears to be it. thanks.
[03:50] <jack|ass> If I try to run a 32-bit app on a 64-bit kernel, what is likely to happen?
[03:51] <jack|ass> is it going to run properly, just in 32-bit mode?   Or am I better off staying with 32-bit kernel if that's what the majority of my applications run in?
[03:51] <dee7o> when i come to click on the top right sound icon it tells me gstreamer and/or devices not found
[03:51] <matthew_> billytwowilly, no prob
[03:52] <dee7o> ?
[03:52] <billytwowilly> how do I unlock /var/cache/debconf/config.dat ?
[03:52] <nolimitsoya> jack|ass, id say stick with 32bit if you want averything to be as smooth as possible :)
[03:52] <Dreamglider> and again, when i play videos in fullscreen i get a lot of horisontal lines, this is only in fullscreen mode. laptop is Intel P4 3GHz, 1gb ram, and GeForce FX Go6500 grapic card. can anyone assist?
[03:52] <ethos_> Anybody have experience enableing s-video output on a thinkpad T23 laptop?
[03:52] <matthew_> billytwowilly, you're gonna have to ask someone else for that one...I've got no idea...:)

[03:59] <ethos_> This is my dilemma:  I follow the instructions here: http://www.thinkwiki.org/wiki/S3switch#Usage and it says to apply this patch because yes I get the segmentation fault.  It doesn't say how to apply the patch though, it looks like code to me.  I'm relatively new to Linux.
[04:00] <txfirehawk> jerp that is what I am looking for. there is nothing called prefs on the menu  =/   I am using xforce, would that be the problem?
[04:00] <Elda> Ive a question... anyone here with a ati igp 345m in their laptop?
[04:00] <Dreamglider> but back to my problem, does anyone know how i can fix it ?
[04:00] <Elda> What problem is that?  I dont know much but I might be able to help :S
[04:00] <Dreamglider> and again, when i play videos in fullscreen i get a lot of horisontal lines, this is only in fullscreen mode. laptop is Intel P4 3GHz, 1gb ram, and GeForce FX Go6500 grapic card. can anyone assist?
[04:01] <jerp> prefs is standard in the installation not only should it be in that menu but it should be checked as default
[04:01] <Elda> Well, my apologies as I just came in.  But I am not sure on that one, perhaps check your refresh? :x
[04:01] <txfirehawk> well that is where i am stuck.
[04:02] <jerp> many times it's customary to reinstall under certain circumstances this would be a good sign that it's called for
[04:02] <txfirehawk> im still pretty new as well
[04:02] <txfirehawk> i would rather not do that, i have a lot set up already  =/
[04:02] <txfirehawk> ill keep looking I guess
[04:03] <jerp> ok, good luck
[04:03] <jerp> tx, you might want to reinstall the desktop
[04:04] <txfirehawk> dont know how lol
[04:04] <txfirehawk> im brand new  -_-

[04:04] <txfirehawk> ok thx brb
[04:05] <ethos_> Has anyone here ever applied a patch to something?

[04:06] <zspada15> ethos_, yes
[04:06] <zspada15> ethos_, what do you mean though?
[04:06] <hybrid> most of the time you update you are patching something
[04:06] <ethos_> This is my dilemma:  I follow the instructions here: http://www.thinkwiki.org/wiki/S3switch#Usage and it says to apply this patch because yes I get the segmentation fault.  It doesn't say how to apply the patch though, it looks like code to me.  I'm relatively new to Linux.
[04:06] <ethos_> Have a look at what it's telling me to do here.

[04:11] <bruenig> If I have a bunch of files, say music files that have the name of the album and then the name of the song after it. Is there anyway to remove the album name off of all of them with one command.

[04:11] <ArrenLex> !php  | manmadha
[04:11] <ubotu> manmadha: lamp is Linux-Apache-MySQL-PHP. However, the term is often used for setups using alternative but different software, such as Perl or Python instead of PHP, and Postgres instead of MySQL.  For help with setting up LAMP on Ubuntu, see  https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ApacheMySQLPHP  -  See also the Server CD install menu.
[04:11] <devilsadvocate> hajiki, you dont need an iso. you can cange your  repo sources list and let apt di its thing
[04:12] <devilsadvocate> !upgrade
[04:12] <ubotu> For upgrading, see the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes
[04:12] <hajiki> nah i want to dl an iso, i think thats a safer way to upgrade
[04:12] <hajiki> >.>;
[04:12] <devilsadvocate> ok

[04:17] <jerp> kal, enter 'sudo synaptic' in a terminal.  search for theme as title
[04:18] <Lam_> !gksudo
[04:18] <ubotu> If you need to run graphical applications as root, use gksudo, as it will set up the environment more appropriately. Avoid ever using "sudo <GUI-application>"
[04:18] <jerp> thanks lam, I didn't know that
[04:18] <coz_> how to  GTK_CONFIG environment variable to the
[04:18] <coz_> *** full path to gtk-config.

[04:23] <jerp> find the basic ubuntu-desktop it would be the one that is the first of a set
[04:23] <AfterDeath> and it doesn't get blocked, because it uses https
[04:24] <JoeC> Kal-El, have a look at gnome-look.org, download the theme, right click on it, choose 'open with archive manager' extract the theme to /home/username/.themes, then go to system>preferences>theme, click theme details and choose your theme
[04:24] <jerp> txfire, you are using ubuntu as opposed to kubuntu-desktop
[04:24] <txfirehawk> jerp what are we looking for?
[04:24] <SF100> the error says: -bash: syntax error near unexpected token `in'

[04:25] <php-freak_> I'm using the terminals ftp
[04:25] <txfirehawk> ok jas
[04:25] <kitche> php-freak_: how are you trying to put it on the ftp server?
[04:25] <php-freak_> kitche: what do you mean?
[04:25] <php-freak_> I just type in send
[04:25] <php-freak_> then the following path /home/php-freak/websites/dewitts/pges/seo/tools/seo-tools-complete.html
[04:26] <php-freak_> when it says local file
[04:26] <Elda> Well, I just edited my xorg.conf, so either this will vastly improve my fps, or mess my installation up.  So if Im not back after this reboot Im reinstalling linux or trying to get xorg.conf fixed xD
[04:26] <Elda> with me luck :s
[04:26] <php-freak_> then when it says remote-file, i just make sure im in the correct directory, and type /seo-tools-complete.html
[04:26] <php-freak_> kitche: is that what you was asking?
[04:26] <jerp> txfire, 'desktop' in Search and then Look In 'Name'
[04:27] <kitche> php-freak_: yeah try mput or put
[04:27] <txfirehawk> jerp, i am running xubuntu desktop, i see it listed here
[04:27] <|thunder> haha, check this chick out playing video games, i think I can see her cootch. http://www.gamingoutloud.com/images/girl_gamer3.jpg
[04:27] <txfirehawk> do i need to change that?
[04:27] <jerp> ok I would hit reinstall
[04:27] <jerp> if it's available
[04:27] <txfirehawk> why?
[04:27] <php-freak_> kitche: I tried put too
[04:28] <php-freak_> whats the difference as put, send, and mput?
[04:28] <Kal-El> on gnome-look what do i download?
[04:28] <jerp> to make the preferences come up
[04:28] <jerp> isn't that what you want?
[04:28] <txfirehawk> ah reinstall the package
[04:28] <txfirehawk> ok than you
[04:28] <txfirehawk> ill try iy

[04:28] <JoeC> so anyone know how to change the gtk theme in fluxbox? I found gtk-theme-switch in repos but I believe I need gtk-theme-switch2 for gtk2 themes and it isnt there
[04:29] <SF100> nevermind...i got it.
[04:29] <JoeC> Kal-El, whatever theme you want
[04:29] <php-freak_> kitche: mput said no such file, or directory.
[04:29] <jerp> kal, what tickles your fancy according to criteria on the left margin
[04:29] <Kal-El> Bloodline
[04:29] <SF100> I gotta say in the few days I have been tinkering with linux it has made me feel very stupid
[04:29] <SF100> but im not giving up yet :)
[04:29] <kitche> php-freak_: mput sends multiple files while put is the same as send
[04:29] <jrib> JoeC: gtk-theme-switch2 is included with gtk-theme-switch
[04:30] <txfirehawk> jerp do i need to restart x?
[04:30] <txfirehawk> it d/l the package again

[04:30] <gbv22> hey guys, if i want to dual boot xp and ubuntu..what order should i install the operating systems in??
[04:30] <jerp> no I think you're thinking of xorg server
[04:31] <php-freak_> lol 2 commands for nothing, I'm sure there some what difference in them, maybe the ftp server regonizes different oens
[04:31] <jerp> as opposed to xfce
[04:31] <php-freak_> recognize*
[04:31] <gbv22> anyone?
[04:31] <JoeC> Kal-El, click download under where it gives the description of the theme
[04:31] <php-freak_> ktich: how can I tell the exact location of a file?
[04:31] <Kal-El> kk
[04:31] <Kal-El> downloaded
[04:31] <php-freak_> I 2nd click on my mouse button, and take the path out of the property which is /home/php-freak/websites/dewitts/pges/seo/tools/seo-tools-complete.html
[04:31] <Kal-El> and i opened it with archive manager
[04:32] <gbv22> please?can anyone help me?
[04:32] <JoeC> gbv22, install windows first
[04:32] <jrib> gbv22: install xp first and leave unpartitioned space for ubuntu
[04:32] <ozoneco> i have a program "/usr/bin/conky" that is entered in a "sessions, startup" list, it doesn't start, why?
[04:32] <jrib> !dualboot | gbv22
[04:32] <ubotu> gbv22: Dual boot instructions:  https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WindowsDualBootHowTo (x86/AMD64) - https://wiki.ubuntu.com/YabootConfigurationForMacintoshPowerPCsDualBoot (Macintosh)
[04:32] <kitche> php-freak_: exact location for what?
[04:32] <php-freak_> the file im trying to send
[04:32] <php-freak_> lol
[04:32] <php-freak_> duh
[04:32] <gbv22> how much space should i leave for ubuntu?
[04:33] <php-freak_> Kitche: These files are in my home folder under my user name folder
[04:33] <jerp> txfire, I'm curious if the application launcher I told you earlier got the Preferences to show
[04:33] <gbv22> how big should the ubuntu partition be?
[04:33] <php-freak_> them are the ones im trying to send
[04:33] <seth88j> my wifi card is detected and it shows up during install and after but it wont find any networks, how do i get it to work?
[04:33] <php-freak_> Don't know if there anything to do with it blocking something, or somethin
[04:33] <zach634> hey guys, I plan on installing ubuntu on my mac here, and I'd like to know... what's the easiest way to back up the HD to a networked drive?  dd?
[04:33] <kitche> php-freak_: think you have to be in the directory of the files with the ftp cli program
[04:33] <jrib> gbv22: I would recommend 100% ubuntu and 0% windows, but that is me :P  Depends on how much you plan on using ubuntu and how much space you have
[04:34] <jerp> txfire, do gksudo killall xubuntu-desktop in a terminal
[04:34] <php-freak_> kitche: lol now you tell me that.
[04:34] <gbv22> jrib
[04:34] <gbv22> haha
[04:34] <txfirehawk> k jas
[04:34] <gbv22> jrib: yeah ubuntu is cool and all..but for some things..u need xp right
[04:35] <kitche> php-freak_:  well I was looking at the ftp commands and it seems you can't give it a path to upload
[04:35] <jerp> txfire, it will do something as if to "cough" and come back to life.
[04:35] <night17> gbv22: it's all what your into
[04:35] <php-freak_> kitche: so I have to have every single file in the same directory, and no folders to upload them?
[04:35] <jrib> gbv22: I use ubuntu for everything.  Only thing I can think someone might need xp for is the latest games
[04:35] <seth88j> How do u get a wifi card connected to a network in ubuntu? it is detected but it wont show any networks?
[04:36] <linuxnewb> hello
[04:36] <zach634> Why HOW-D!
[04:36] <jrib> linuxnewb: hi, welcome
[04:36] <jerp> hello newb
[04:36] <linuxnewb> hi jrib
[04:36] <linuxnewb> any one here run ubuntu for server
[04:36] <gbv22> jrib: yeah..i guess....gaming is the only thing.....pls tell me something..i was talking to some of my friends..and they feel that fedora is a better distribution...what are your views?
[04:37] <txfirehawk> jerp it asked for my password and then that was it.   it (pref) is still not on any menu.
[04:37] <seth88j> Fedora is way smoother
[04:37] <gbv22> in what way seth?
[04:37] <php-freak_> kitche: you there?
[04:37] <linuxnewb> i am looking for mail server
[04:37] <jrib> gbv22: I like debian a lot.  But it is all preference.  I would try both out and see what you like more
[04:37] <php-freak_> Any one good with the command line ftp app. by ubuntu?
[04:37] <seth88j> On my machine it is just more snapier, running gnome
[04:37] <php-freak_> Need an expert?
[04:38] <kitche> php-freak_: yeah was reading the ftp man page
[04:38] <linuxnewb> any one run mail server here
[04:38] <php-freak_> i see
[04:38] <seth88j> Fedora is a big download
[04:38] <php-freak_> kitche: what'd you find out?
[04:38] <seth88j> Hey guys anybody here listen to black flag?
[04:38] <gbv22> jrib: i see....which desktop env is more popular...kde or gnome...(pls forgive me if im being too generic)
[04:39] <seth88j> Peace
[04:39] <linuxnewb> no one here run server
[04:39] <kitche> php-freak_: not a lot the man page doesn't have anything about uploading directories if that's what your trying to do
[04:39] <jerp> txfire, hmm, ok, I'm in gnome and I did have xubuntu on the dapper but I have forgotten where that is,  I must say I apologise for not asking what you were using before we started.   (sheepish grin)
[04:40] <night17> gbv22: don't forget xfce :]
[04:40] <jrib> gbv22: heh this is again personal preference, you should just try both.  kde gives you a lot more options (some feel too much).  GNOME likes to keep things simple (some feel too much)
[04:40] <php-freak_> Ktiche: im not trying to upload a directory? Why ask such question. I'm trying to upload the file from that directory.
[04:40] <txfirehawk> its ok, i have been looking on the ubuntu forums and i see pref listed on the menu but it is not on mine.   is there a command to launch the app?
[04:40] <gbv22> night17:which distribution uses xfce?
[04:40] <kitche> php-freak_: then cd to that directory on your local machine and up load it
[04:41] <jrib> gbv22: GNOME is probably more popular on ubuntu though since it is default
[04:41] <kitche> gbv22: xubuntu but you cna install it with ubuntu also
[04:41] <jerp> txfire, do you have the menu that is on the desktop? or is it in the deskbar?
[04:41] <gbv22> jrib:ok..i will do that..can i dual boot two linux systems
[04:41] <jerp> like, click the mouse on the wallpaper and the menu shows
[04:41] <gbv22> kitche: i can dual boot xubuntu and ubunty?
[04:42] <kitche> gbv22: you cna do sudo apt-get install xubuntu-desktop then you will have xfce
[04:42] <txfirehawk> deskbar
[04:42] <jrib> gbv22: yes you can.  You could have both fedora and ubuntu on your system.  As far as having both GNOME and KDE on ubuntu, you can just install kubuntu-desktop package after installing ubuntu.  Then at the login screen, the "options" button lets you switch
[04:43] <xarq> what tv card is recommended for ubuntu?
[04:43] <jerp> ok, I'm baffled, in the dapper I had the menu was on the desktop
[04:43] <xarq> usb or otherwise
[04:43] <txfirehawk> i am using an old all in woder
[04:43] <txfirehawk> wonder*
[04:44] <jrib> txfirehawk: what are you trying to launch?
[04:44] <txfirehawk> im trying to set up vnc

[04:45] <txfirehawk> so i am not sure how to launch the app to reset/ configure a password
[04:45] <SupremeBeing> would anyone care to assist me with fglrx?  I can wait =)
[04:45] <jrib> !enter | txfirehawk
[04:45] <ubotu> txfirehawk: Please don't use the "enter" key as punctuation! It spams the channel and can be annoying.
[04:45] <txfirehawk> ah sorry
[04:45] <jrib> txfirehawk: you are using your user password?
[04:45] <txfirehawk> i am logged in as a user
[04:46] <jrib> txfirehawk: does synaptic work?
[04:46] <txfirehawk> yes
[04:46] <txfirehawk> i have been using it
[04:46] <txfirehawk> xubuntu-desktop is installed
[04:46] <php-freak_> this channel sucks 885 people, and no support
[04:47] <php-freak_> #linux
[04:47] <pablo_> can anyone give me some hints on installing freeglut3-dev? (broken dependency with libgl1-mesa-dev)
[04:47] <SupremeBeing> php-freak_: that's not a good way to get support =)
[04:47] <jrib> txfirehawk: ok we are talking about system > administration > remote desktop?  "vino-preferences" command?
[04:47] <php-freak_> lol
[04:47] <php-freak_> wasn't like I was getting it anyways
[04:47] <kitche> php-freak_: to bad #linux will tell you to just come here
[04:47] <SupremeBeing> php-freak_: that's true
[04:47] <jrib> s/administration/preferences
[04:47] <php-freak_> its just ridicules there is 885 people in here, and not 1 person can answer a question lol.
[04:47] <bonggnu> hi,  my webserver (apache2) cant execute a setup.php file, it wants to open with a text editor
[04:48] <kitche> php-freak_: did you even try to upload that file fromt he directory that the file is in
[04:48] <txfirehawk> njrib that is to connect to a pc, i want vncserver to accept incoming and it is but it will not accept the password
[04:48] <jrib> !lamp > bonggnu
[04:48] <txfirehawk> i have no idea how to change the pass
[04:48] <bonggnu> thanks
[04:48] <jrib> txfirehawk: remote desktop is to configure your computer so others can connect to it
[04:48] <jorgp> how do I get a UUID to add to fstab for another partition?
[04:48] <txfirehawk> let me take a 2nd look
[04:48] <php-freak_> kitche: Well duh.
[04:48] <txfirehawk> jas
[04:48] <canine_kouji> :D why can't hte ubuntu logo look like this? http://home.utcorp.net/~gongo/humor/IT/ubuntu-logo.jpg
[04:48] <php-freak_> Ktiche: how long you been using linux?

[04:49] <canine_kouji> sexy female rear ends :D
[04:49] <kitche> php-freak_: about 5 years and I m using LFS right now
[04:49] <php-freak_> kitche: What do you think I was doing sending a directory? lol you can't send a a directory
[04:49] <php-freak_> I was trying to send the file from the directory into the proper directory on the host end.
[04:49] <jrib> !uuid | jorgp
[04:49] <ubotu> jorgp: To see a list of your devices/partitions and their corresponding UUID's, run this command in the terminal: "blkid" (see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LibAtaForAtaDisks for the rationale behind the transition to UUID)
[04:49] <jerp> tom, there's an updater app in synaptic isn't there?
[04:50] <CzarAlex> When I hold either shift button or CTRL button and try to use my mouse to select multiple items in a list (in all applications), the mouse will freeze until i release the shift or CTRL key. So I can't select anything on the list. My system doesn't freeze, just the mouse. Suggestions?
[04:50] <jerp> I saw it a couple days ago
[04:50] <tomiboi> let me check.
[04:50] <jorgp> thanks jrib
[04:50] <britt> CzarAlex: check this, check to see if DOS emulation for USB is enabled
[04:50] <SupremeBeing> can anybody help me with fglrx?
[04:50] <britt> mine was and it messed everything up
[04:50] <CzarAlex> britt: where can I find that?
[04:50] <monokrome> Yo.
[04:50] <britt> CzarAlex: in the system BIOS.
[04:51] <HeathenDan> how do i make jpg photos "lighter" with gimp? they're too dark
[04:51] <britt> has it always done this?
[04:51] <jorgp> well, if it is an Alan Cox thing, it has to be good
[04:51] <monokrome> Is it possible to copy the iptables from one computer to another
[04:51] <monokrome> :/
[04:51] <CzarAlex> britt: would that be the same as like enabling USB to work under DOS..like USB mouse/keyboard support for DOS/boot up stuff?
[04:51] <sigp239> My sound suddently starts stuttering in ubuntu 6.10.  Please help thanks.
[04:52] <CzarAlex> britt: Yeah it has but I think I turned that option on prior to installing once.
[04:52] <jerp> yeah, clam-getfiles
[04:52] <canine_kouji> *shrug* no wonder I'm never here. Too many noobs
[04:52] <sko0zy> Can anyone recommend an enviorment to code C in
[04:52] <TehUni> all the sudden my custom kernel (edgy) refuses to boot. it hangs right after USB discovery. using the generic kernel, everything is fine. It's worked flawlessly until now. I have to use custom because i have more than 4gigs ram. Where should i start troubleshooting?
[04:52] <jrib> sko0zy: vim, or anjuta if you want an IDE
[04:53] <w3ccv> sko0zy, you mean which editor?  vi, emacs, whatever you like!
[04:53] <CzarAlex> nano!
[04:53] <php-freak_> Never mind I figured out where the files were going
[04:53] <txfirehawk> man i dont know
[04:53] <sko0zy> jrib,  whwat would u suggest or what do you like better..i know its preference but i like imput
[04:53] <jorgp> jrib, interesting bug in that blkid
[04:53] <jerp> heather, look for layers/colors
[04:54] <php-freak_> kitche: sorry, but if you been using linux for 5 years your should know this, or maybe I was not being clearn enough if so I apologize
[04:54] <jrib> jorgp: oh?
[04:54] <britt> CzarAlex: yes its the same
[04:54] <jerp> brightness-contrast
[04:54] <astroboy> Last two attempts to install EdgyEft resulted in "Verifying DMI Pool Data ... Not found any [active partition]  in HDD ... DISK BOOT FALIURE, INSERT SYSTEM DISK AND PRESS ENTER" Any ideas ? I've been working on this for two days now .
[04:54] <jrib> sko0zy: vim, definitely worth the time to learn it
[04:54] <talbain> heather gimp? picture window: tools->color tools->brightness contrast
[04:54] <sko0zy> jrib, thanks
[04:54] <jorgp> jrib, I just did a sudo blkid and it listed some then switched to garbage on screen
[04:54] <britt> CzarAlex: change that back, and you should be good to go. When mine was enabled, my mouse would stop working after a few seconds of connecting to the wireless thingy doo-hickey
[04:55] <CzarAlex> Using this page as a guide https://help.ubuntu.com/5.10/ubuntu/faq/C/fg-windows-partitions.html how would I mount hdb1 and sda1 ? both are NTFS filesystems. Do I need to change umask=0222 to anything different?
[04:55] <sigp239> My sound suddently starts stuttering in ubuntu 6.10.  Please help thanks.
[04:55] <CzarAlex> britt: gotcha. and thanks. Ill restart in a moment see if that fixes it.
[04:55] <jrib> jorgp: strange, you shouldn't need sudo by the way
[04:55] <kitche> php-freak_: you said / as the remove directory that will put it in your remote parent directory you can just try the filename alone when your in the remote directory
[04:55] <kitche> remove/remote
[04:55] <jorgp> jrib, http://pastebin.ca/265266
[04:56] <txfirehawk> i logged in and out and still no system > preferences.  not sure what to do now
[04:56] <jrib> txfirehawk: are you in GNOME?
[04:56] <txfirehawk> xfce
[04:56] <txfirehawk> is that what you mean?
[04:56] <jrib> txfirehawk: the system > preferences is in GNOME
[04:57] <kitche> php-freak_: just like ona  local machine cp <file name> /<filename> will put the file in /
[04:57] <txfirehawk> ok
[04:57] <jrib> txfirehawk: maybe you can run 'vino-preferences'.  I'm not sure if xfce uses this.  Search for 'vnc' on the wiki should turn up guides on using stuff other than vino though if you want
[04:58] <txfirehawk> what if i just install gnome?
[04:58] <sigp239> please help.  my sound stutters in ubuntu 6.10, how do i fix it?
[04:58] <jrib> txfirehawk: sure, that would work too.  Install the 'ubuntu-desktop' package
[04:58] <txfirehawk> ok give me a few
[04:59] <talbain> will linux ever be more popular than windows?
[04:59] <night17> maybe
[04:59] <night17> i doubt it
[04:59] <talbain> i hope so
[04:59] <jrib> !offtopic
[04:59] <ubotu> #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome!
[04:59] <night17> at least not for 10 years
[04:59] <CzarAlex> talbain: once more mainstream games are supported
[04:59] <kitche> php-freak_: I read what you said wrong but anyways I don't use the ftp cli program that much I prefer scp for uploading files to me webspace
[04:59] <talbain> true
[05:00] <night17> it needs to be distrobuted on commercial machines a lot
[05:00] <jorgp> jrib, I think maybe the label is messed up on a part, how do I change label?
[05:00] <night17> and people to get smarter
[05:00] <jerp> talbain, the French Parliment is envious of Gates and has dumped Windows in their government offices for Linux
[05:00] <talbain> i hope ubuntu is the start of the popularization
[05:00] <php-freak_> yea
[05:00] <britt> how efficient is software raid
[05:00] <talbain> cool
[05:00] <britt> seems like it would be a complete disaster in a real failure
[05:01] <jerp> http://news.zdnet.com/2100-3513_22-6138372.html
[05:01] <sigp239> my sound stutters in ubuntu 6.10, how do i fix it?
[05:01] <britt> sigp239: check for updated gstreamer plugins
[05:01] <kitche> sigp239: what are you doing when your sound does it
[05:01] <night17> sigp239 just play round with it
[05:01] <britt> i used the 'ugly' build, and it worked fine.
[05:02] <sigp239> britt: but just regular sounds cause my system to stutter.  like desktop sounds.
[05:02] <jrib> jorgp: I don't know, but it's something I'd like to know so I'll let you know if google tells me
[05:02] <Davo_Dinkum> How can I use my CF to PCMCIA adapter in edgy? I plugged it in but it doesn't show upon the desktop.
[05:02] <jorgp> jrib, mtools does fat32 parts
[05:02] <sigp239> kitche: like logging in sounds, or playing mp3s, or the sounds produced when connecting on ekiga, etc..
[05:03] <knapp> Does anyone know of any lightweight office applications like an alternative to openoffice? It takes OO like 1minute to open on my laptop.
[05:03] <blameless> abiword, gnumeric ...
[05:03] <Davo_Dinkum> knapp: Abiword
[05:03] <jerp> I'd say check connections first, then reload packages
[05:03] <talbain> grat read, makes a lot of sense
[05:03] <knapp> Thanks, I'll check it out.
[05:04] <britt> sigp239: my ibook is doing that too, but its bc ubuntu is just choking it out
[05:04] <sigp239> britt: choking it out?
[05:04] <knapp> what about something like abiword, but for kde:?
[05:04] <knapp> :/
[05:04] <kitche> knapp: Koffice
[05:04] <Davo_Dinkum> Koffice might load quicker.
[05:05] <knapp> What word processor comes with Xubuntu?
[05:05] <jrib> jorgp: gparted seems to offer the option under device > set disklabel  but it prompted that it would need to erase all data
[05:05] <knapp> or office type prog
[05:05] <kitche> knapp: mousepad it's like notepad
[05:05] <sigp239> i'm really dissapointed in ubuntu
[05:05] <sigp239> stuff just doesn't work
[05:05] <knapp> Hmm, ok thanks
[05:05] <mirceatm> hi! i've got a problem booting ubuntu live 6.10 on amd64 with sata .. /bin/sh: Can't access tty; Job control turned off. read the forums but nothing is clear.. could someone help?
[05:05] <kitche> sigp239: what is your ram by chance?
[05:05] <Elda> Woooh
[05:05] <britt> sigp239: yeah too much for a g3 366 apparently, im gettins skipping on sound fx too
[05:05] <jorgp> jrib, im playing with mtools to see what it does
[05:05] <night17> sigp239- what are your pc specs?
[05:05] <Davo_Dinkum> I've heard of a system tray applet that preloads oo.o into memory, so when you go to use it, it's ready for you.
[05:05] <JoshJ> i'm having trouble opening a .rar file
[05:05] <Elda> I broke my install and managed to fix it xD
[05:05] <jorgp> jrib, http://ubuntu.wordpress.com/2006/03/01/editing-fat32-partition-labels-using-mtools/
[05:05] <JoshJ> what do i need to get archive manager to work with rars?
[05:06] <sigp239> kitche: p4 3.06Ghz, 512mb memory
[05:06] <defrysk> JoshJ, in edgy sudo apt-get install unrar
[05:06] <TehUni> all the sudden my custom kernel (edgy) refuses to boot. it hangs right after USB discovery. using the generic kernel, everything is fine. It's worked flawlessly until now. I have to use custom because i have more than 4gigs ram. Where should i start troubleshooting?
[05:06] <sigp239> night17: p4 3.06Ghz, 512mb memory
[05:06] <kitche> sigp239: onboard sound?
[05:06] <Elda> Im glad that I saved the original settings with ## on the xorg.conf xD
[05:06] <JoshJ> and then the command is?
[05:06] <ozoneco> mirceatm: had that trouble, same thing, athlon 64, ubuntu live
[05:06] <JoshJ> oh, nvm, i see
[05:06] <jrib> jorgp: cool thanks
[05:06] <sigp239> kitche: i've tried my onboard sound and also my soundblaster live!
[05:06] <JoshJ> thanks
[05:06] <CzarAlex> Using this page as a guide https://help.ubuntu.com/5.10/ubuntu/faq/C/fg-windows-partitions.html how would I mount hdb1 and sda1 ? both are NTFS filesystems. Do I need to change umask=0222 to anything different?
[05:06] <ozoneco> mirceatm: loaded suse right up
[05:06] <sigp239> kitche: same problem with either sound card
[05:06] <kitche> TehUni: what does your custom kernel say?
[05:06] <defrysk> !unrar | JoshJ
[05:06] <ubotu> JoshJ: unrar is rar is a non-free archive format created by Rarsoft. For instructions on accessing .rar files through the Archive Manager view https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FileCompression  There is a free (as in speech) unrar utility as well, see !info unrar-free
[05:07] <mirceatm> ozoneco: that's not an option :)
[05:07] <cheesybobman> hi
[05:07] <jorgp> jrib, blkid still has issues reading the label of a vfat part though
[05:07] <JoshJ> !info unrar-free
[05:07] <ubotu> unrar-free: Unarchiver for .rar files. In component universe, is optional. Version 1:0.0.1+cvs20060609-1 (edgy), package size 17 kB, installed size 80 kB
[05:07] <ozoneco> mirceatm: understand
[05:07] <TehUni> kitche: what do you mean "what does it say" ?
[05:07] <night17> if it works on my celeron 433mhz with 256mb ram it should be at home on yours sigp239
[05:07] <JoshJ> so if unrar-free is free as in speech, how do i have unrar (non-free) ?
[05:07] <kitche> sigp239: hmm sound skipping might be caused by esd not working
[05:07] <defrysk> JoshJ, dont use unrar-free
[05:07] <cheesybobman> i have ubuntu 6.06 LTS running on my Acer Aspire 5002WLMI and I can't get my wireless card to work. Help please?
[05:07] <sigp239> kitche: should I disable esd and reboot?
[05:07] <kitche> TehUni: does it kernel panic? since if it does it usualy has an error along side it
[05:07] <JoshJ> yeah, i noticed, it didn't work :[
[05:08] <mirceatm> ozoneco: so.. now you have suse and stay around in #ubuntu? :)
[05:08] <kitche> sigp239: you can try that just to see if it rules it out
[05:08] <defrysk> JoshJ,  unrar-free does not support multiple archived rars
[05:08] <ozoneco> this pc has ubuntu
[05:08] <TehUni> kitche: nope.. just hangs after detecting usb devices.
[05:08] <cheesybobman> anyone?
[05:09] <jrib> !wireless | cheesybobman
[05:09] <ubotu> cheesybobman: Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs
[05:09] <kitche> TehUni: did you update recently?
[05:09] <mirceatm> hi! i've got a problem booting ubuntu live 6.10 on amd64 with sata .. /bin/sh: Can't access tty; Job control turned off. read the forums but nothing is clear.. could someone help?
[05:09] <levander> Trying to mount a cd, I just got the error: "unknown filesystem type 'iso9660'".  Do I have to install the iso9660 fs separate?
[05:09] <php-freak_> Kitche: Dang is Linux case sensitive on everything?
[05:09] <jrib> mirceatm: all I can suggest is trying the alternate install cd assuming you are trying to install
[05:09] <JoshJ> php-freak_ : yes
[05:09] <TehUni> kitche: yea, i do an apt-get upgrade almost daily. but haven't seen anything major lately
[05:09] <mirceatm> jrib: will try that.
[05:10] <kitche> TehUni: maybe it broke your kernel
[05:10] <php-freak_> joshj: do you use gimp?
[05:10] <Elda> meh, brb
[05:10] <Elda> somethign is acting odd
[05:10] <TehUni> kitche: i recompiled the exact same kernel, with the exact same result.
[05:10] <JoshJ> php-freak_: no, i use krita when i need to do graphics editing
[05:10] <php-freak_> Any one a gimp expert here.
[05:11] <php-freak_> I need something that could produce possibly the same effects as photoshop?
[05:11] <w3ccv> php-freak_, not an expert, but a user what's up
[05:11] <kitche> php-freak_:  might want to ask #gimp over at gnome's irc server
[05:11] <tristanbob_> anyone recommend a vendor to buy an Ubuntu server from?
[05:11] <php-freak_> Well how can I download all the plug ins for gimp?
[05:11] <w3ccv> php-freak_,  what effect?
[05:11] <php-freak_> lol all of them
[05:11] <JoshJ> ...
[05:11] <zach634> tristanbob: anybody? ubuntu is free
[05:11] <night17> tristanbob-just download and burnit
[05:12] <night17> it's cheaper
[05:12] <JoshJ> so you want to know "how do i use gimp?"
[05:12] <jrib> I think tristanbob_ means a physical server
[05:12] <w3ccv> php-freak_, easy, use the onlinetutorials or the GIMP book
[05:12] <night17> whichever one is closest
[05:12] <tristanbob_> jrib: yes, a hardware server
[05:12] <zach634> jrib: yes, anything will work.  Hell, like, find some old computer lying on the side of the road or something :P
[05:13] <night17> oh ok
[05:13] <night17> i c what you mean
[05:13] <jrib> tristanbob_: ob-just download and burnit
[05:13] <tristanbob_> zach634: this is for a small business, looking to support those who support UBuntu
[05:13] <zach634> tristanbob: newegg.com  build your own for cheap
[05:13] <jrib> tristanbob_: http://system76.com/  seem like nice people,, no experience though
[05:13] <whalesalad> hey everyone, im trying to change my mysql root password and each time I attempt to change the password, I get some errors.
[05:14] <tristanbob_> jrib: yes, I have heard of them - looking at website
[05:14] <php-freak> sorry lost connection
[05:14] <tristanbob_> zach634: I used to do that (still get upgrades from newegg) but I prefer to purchase tested configurations now
[05:14] <sigp239> i've tried two different sound cards, and now I've tried disabling ESD.  The  sound is still stuttering very badly.
[05:14] <w3ccv> whalesalad, as mysql root, remember to use the password() function
[05:14] <whalesalad> tristianbob: unless its a mac, the best way to go is newegg
[05:15] <whalesalad> w3ccv: im trying to do this from the command line, i just got the box setup with edgy server, and now im getting django runnin too. mysql seems to be having problems..
[05:15] <tristanbob_> whalesalad: what command are you using?
[05:15] <blameless> define a "tested" configuration
[05:15] <whalesalad> im following thsi guide for the mysql portion, http://www.howtoforge.com/perfect_setup_ubuntu_6.10_p4
[05:16] <w3ccv> whalesalad, probably easier ways but  update user set password=password{"newpassword") where user=root;
[05:16] <whalesalad> mysqladmin -u root password yourrootsqlpassword    <- is the command that gives me errors
[05:16] <tristanbob_> blameless: just that - the hardware components have been tested to work with each other
[05:16] <tristanbob_> whalesalad: try using "sudo"?
[05:16] <blameless> there are several places online where you can configure a barebones machines and the company will actually put the machine together and see that it works
[05:16] <whalesalad> im already root right now
[05:16] <tristanbob_> ahh
[05:16] <whalesalad> root@wsdev:/home/whalesalad# mysqladmin -u root password *******
[05:16] <whalesalad> mysqladmin: connect to server at 'localhost' failed
[05:16] <whalesalad> error: 'Access denied for user 'root'@'localhost' (using password: NO)'
[05:17] <w3ccv> whalesalad, I think you need password= in your commandline
[05:17] <snid> i need some help using with high mem (ram) support....do i need to enable high memory support for the ubuntu kernel?
[05:17] <whalesalad> w3ccv: three different places, including mysql itself has said to do that command, so thats what ive been toying with.
[05:18] <blameless> whalesalad: what happens if you add a -p <oldpassword) after the -u root
[05:18] <tristanbob_> whalesalad: I think that command is just for the initial password
[05:18] <whalesalad> i think it might be a hostname issue
[05:18] <whalesalad> blameless, let me try that
[05:18] <defrysk> snid, the generic supports high mem
[05:18] <tristanbob_> blameless: yes, that is what he needs for changing a password
[05:19] <snid> defrysk: hmmm... when i run vmware and with the setting to use most of the ram... alot of my ram gets swapped... and im not sure why
[05:19] <whalesalad> blameless, well it apparently works... hehe
[05:19] <w3ccv> whalesalad, either use -p and it will ask for a password or use password=<yourcurrentpassword>
[05:19] <defrysk> snid, nu clue about vmware, sorry
[05:19] <snid> defrysk: is there a kernel parameter i can pass to enable memory to be less likely to be swapped or something?
[05:20] <blameless> snid: yes the swappiness variable.  however, if vmware is taking up as much memory as it can, things will probably be swapped out
[05:20] <whalesalad> i guess what the problem is, is that im trying to connect to the databse server from my macbook using an app called navacat, when i try and connect it tells me that the host (my macbook) is not allowed to connect to the mysql server
[05:20] <stepanstas> hey guys
[05:20] <Launchpad> !apt-get update
[05:20] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about apt-get update - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[05:20] <Launchpad> grr
[05:20] <Launchpad> !apt-get
[05:20] <ubotu> APT is the Advanced Package Tool, which together with dpkg forms the basic Ubuntu package management toolkit. Short apt-get manual: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AptGetHowto - Also see !Synaptic (Gnome) or !Adept (KDE)
[05:20] <stepanstas> is anyone else having problems with firefox?
[05:20] <Launchpad> !synaptic gnome
[05:20] <ubotu> synaptic: Graphical package manager. In component main, is optional. Version 0.57.11ubuntu12 (edgy), package size 1032 kB, installed size 5420 kB
[05:20] <defrysk> stepanstas, now that is a detailed question
[05:21] <stepanstas> ok, well...
[05:21] <cafuego_> whalesalad: Just add access; grant all on db.* to user@remotehostname identified by 'password';
[05:21] <stepanstas> when im on ubuntu.com, forums, and everything, its fine
[05:21] <cafuego_> whalesalad: and then 'flush privileges;'
[05:21] <stepanstas> but when i go to gmail, digg, google vid, and everything else
[05:21] <whalesalad> cafuego_: sorry. im an sql noob, how do I do that?
[05:21] <stepanstas> it closes
[05:22] <blameless> what error does it give?
[05:22] <snid> blameless: thanks.. that seems to be what i needed
[05:22] <cafuego_> whalesalad: 'sudo mysql', then run those commands
[05:22] <w3ccv> whalesalad, read the error message - when it says password-NO it means a password wasn't asked for and it needed one.
[05:22] <cafuego_> whalesalad: actually, just 'mysql -u root' and not sudo at all
[05:22] <blameless> snid: the ck patchset also uses a mapped watermark way of taking care of swap.  might want to look into that as well
[05:22] <stepanstas> anybody know why im having these problems with firefox?
[05:22] <defrysk> stepanstas, you installed flash and java with .debs from the repositories ?
[05:22] <whalesalad> ok well its giving me that password error, so how do I login with the password in the terminal
[05:23] <whalesalad> -p and the password doesnt work
[05:23] <w3ccv> whalesalad, mysql -l root -p
[05:23] <whalesalad> ok nevermind, i figured it out
[05:23] <stepanstas> defrysk: i resently installed adobe flash though the site
[05:23] <cafuego_> whalesalad: did you set a root password for mysql?
[05:23] <blameless> stepanstas: start firefox from the terminal, go to a website and let it crash.  it should tell you an error message
[05:23] <whalesalad> haha sorry, its been a while and i keep not trying what i already know thinking it wot work
[05:23] <w3ccv> whalesalad, congrats
[05:23] <whalesalad> yeah, so now im on the command line. how can I grant access to my macbook, so i guess systems other than localhost
[05:23] <defrysk> stepanstas, and removed the old one (flash7) ?
[05:24] <stepanstas> blameless, my first day using linux
[05:24] <stepanstas> how do i get o terminal
[05:24] <blameless> stepanstas: main menu - accessories - terminal
[05:24] <blameless> assuming this is gnome
[05:25] <defrysk> stepanstas, applications> accesories> terminal
[05:25] <stepanstas> k
[05:25] <stepanstas> got it
[05:25] <stepanstas> it closed
[05:25] <cafuego_> don't believe fierljeppen
[05:25] <whalesalad> cafuego: how can I tell mysql that anyoen from the ip ______ is allowed
[05:25] <stepanstas> i see no error
[05:25] <cafuego_> whalesalad: %@remotehost
[05:25] <defrysk> cafuego, I do :p
[05:26] <stepanstas> blameless, what do i do?
[05:26] <blameless> stepanstas: what about opening firefox and going to about:plugins.  what plugins are enabled?
[05:26] <defrysk> stepanstas, where are you talking about ?
[05:26] <stepanstas> i didnt get an error
[05:26] <snid> blameless: hmm... there isnt an ubuntu kernel built with ck patches is there?... i really hate compiling my own kernel.. i like everything to just upgrade and work by itself
[05:26] <whalesalad> cafuego: that doesnt seem to do anything in the mysql shell
[05:26] <defrysk> stepanstas, listen to blameless , I'm gonna make some coffee
[05:26] <stepanstas> k defrysk
[05:26] <snid> blameless: dont be confused... i was once a gentoo user, then got sick of waiting on compiles and broken dependencies
[05:26] <blameless> snid: no, i don't believe so.  i generally compile my own kernel on all of my machines.  other than this one which for some reason has issues with gdm on my own compiled

[05:27] <blameless> snid: oh, i went from debian to suse, to debian, to gentoo, to slackware, to debian, to freebsd, to openbsd, back to freebsd, and then to gento and ubuntu :)
[05:28] <kitche> snid: no there is no kernel with ck patches since ck patches are meant more for power users
[05:28] <bunnythebunny> hello
[05:28] <stepanstas> blameless, i tried again, got an error. The program 'Gecko' received an X Window System error.
[05:28] <stepanstas> This probably reflects a bug in the program.
[05:28] <stepanstas> The error was 'BadMatch (invalid parameter attributes)'.

[05:29] <bunnythebunny> how do i decompress a jar file_
[05:29] <bunnythebunny> ?
[05:29] <blameless>  /ignore ubotu all
[05:29] <defrysk> a java archive why would you do that ?
[05:30] <blameless> to get the cookies out?
[05:30] <stepanstas> sorry, didnt know
[05:30] <whis1> HAH
[05:30] <defrysk> bunnythebunny, thry java -jar blah.jar
[05:31] <blameless> stepanstas: i'm not sure what caused that error.  is firefox the only thing giving you fits?
[05:31] <bunnythebunny> defrysk, thanks
[05:31] <stepanstas> so far
[05:31] <stepanstas> it is the only program that closed
[05:31] <whis1> can anyone help me figure out why fglrx 8.24.8 fails compiling?
[05:31] <defrysk> bunnythebunny, not sure if i was correct had to dig deep in my mem
[05:31] <kitche> whis`: you have the kernel source installed?
[05:31] <blameless> stepanstas: try opening it up, and typing about:plugins in the location bar.  what plugins are in there?
[05:32] <whis1> kitche: unless it came with dapper then i doubt it, how do i go about getting it?
[05:32] <php-freak> How Do I know where my packages went? I just opened up a .bin file, and it opened up in the terminal, but what do i do now?
[05:32] <bunnythebunny> defrysk, it didnt work! Exception in thread "main" java.awt.AWTError: Cannot load AWT toolkit: gnu.java.awt.peer.gtk.GtkToolkit
[05:32] <kitche> bunnythebunny: it's jar -x blah.jar java -jar blah.jar actually runs the .jar file
[05:32] <defrysk> kitche, thanks :)
[05:32] <kitche> whis1: it's in synaptic linux-tree or linux-source
[05:32] <chris_> Can anyone give me a hand with some wireless networking trouble?  It recognizes my wireless card, can see the essid being broadcast, but cannot connect to it.
[05:32] <blameless> php-freak: which bin file?
[05:32] <php-freak> blameless: what do you mean?
[05:33] <bunnythebunny> thanks kitche
[05:33] <php-freak> blameless: ZendStudio-5_1_0.bin
[05:33] <blameless> usually .bin files are created by makeself to install a program.  i was just curious which one it was.  anyway, open up a termina and run the .bin file inside the terminal
[05:33] <blameless> it should as you where you want to put it
[05:34] <m0dY> anyone with shell scripting experience here ?
[05:34] <stepanstas> blameless,http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/35150/
[05:34] <xiechy> I have upgrade to feisty
[05:34] <blameless> chris_: what type of card, 802.11b/g, etc?
[05:34] <xiechy> but the IO performance is extremely slow
[05:34] <blameless> stepanstas: so you just have flash 7 and totem in there?
[05:35] <php-freak> ZendStudio-5_1_0.bin so just type that in the terminal in the same directory as the file?
[05:35] <kitche> xiechy: of course it will be slow it's not even stable yet it's the development version of ubuntu
[05:35] <blameless> stepanstas: how did flash 7 get installed?
[05:35] <sujan> hi, i am unable to wma file with totem
[05:35] <stepanstas> blameless, there is also the quicktime plugin
[05:35] <blameless> stepanstas: my guess, and its a guess, is that that would be the problem.  flash is really the only plugin that gmail is going to use
[05:35] <kitche> php-freak: it will be sh ZendStudio-5_1_0.bin or you can chmod +x the file then put ./ infront of the filename
[05:36] <RancidLM> hey all kinda off topic question i would like to play a video game system from a window on the screen i have a hauppauge capture card but unbuntu doesn't detect it.. first off would this work or would there be a massive delay?
[05:36] <sujan> are there any extra plugin that is required for that
[05:36] <stepanstas> blameless, i was on metacafe.com
[05:36] <php-freak> nows whats SH stand for?
[05:36] <stepanstas> it told me i needed it
[05:36] <xiechy> /exit
[05:36] <php-freak> okay says unpacking the jre file
[05:36] <blameless> stepanstas: so you clicked and installed it from inside of firefox?
[05:36] <matthew_> php-freak, it stands for SHell
[05:36] <kitche> php-freak: it's a shell but is used to run executables if you use bash or sh
[05:37] <stepanstas> i did both as a matter of fact
[05:37] <php-freak> grep: error while loading shared libraries: libc.so.6: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
[05:37] <php-freak> /tmp/install.dir.19440/Linux/resource/jre/bin/java: error while loading shared libraries: libpthread.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
[05:37] <stepanstas> i believe first was the one outside
[05:37] <php-freak> I got that message right after it said launcing installer
[05:37] <blameless> stepanstas: do you have any bookmarks or stuff you need to save for firefox?
[05:37] <stepanstas> should i get rid of it?
[05:37] <blameless> stepanstas: i would try getting rid of it and see what that does
[05:38] <stepanstas> no, i didnt save anythign yet
[05:38] <kitche> php-freak: that libc.so.6 error isn't really good
[05:38] <blameless> stepanstas: open up a terminal and try a rm -rf ~/.mozilla  that will restore firefox to its inital configuration
[05:38] <blameless> stepanstas: it will also remove the flash 7 plugin
[05:38] <IdleOne> what package do I need to install to view files on my windows machine?
[05:38] <php-freak> kitche: what do you mean it not really good lol?
[05:38] <whalesalad> hey ive got another question. i have a macbook running osx and would like to connect to the server, which is not on the same subnet, using something more sophisticated than ftp so that I can browse and manage files almost like they were local. anyone know how I might do this?
[05:39] <kitche> php-freak: libc.so.6 is a lib that actually used by the linux base system
[05:39] <whis1> kitche: after getting linux-source (with ubuntu patches of course) fglrx was still not able to compile... i'm checking out logs now
[05:39] <kitche> php-freak: see what ls says
[05:39] <m0dY> how to make a shell script run in the background without being able to be killed even on ctrl+c ?
[05:40] <kitche> m0dy: ./<script> bg
[05:40] <blameless> whalesalad: i tend to just sync my directories back and forth
[05:40] <m0dY> kitche, i want it to be inserted in the script
[05:40] <whis1> i believe it goes wrong with /lib/modules/fglrx/build_mod/firegl_agpgart/firegl_wrap.c:1362: error: struct <anonymous> has no member named pud
[05:40] <whalesalad> blameless: ive considered that and it wont work, i guess ill just need to move the server onto the same subnet and use samba or something
[05:40] <m0dY> so you don't have to do it in execution
[05:41] <blameless> whalesalad: is this macos to a windows box?
[05:41] <php-freak> ktiche: wahts ls stand for
[05:41] <defrysk> list
[05:41] <php-freak> I can't remember that ones looks famaliar though
[05:41] <whis1> man ls
[05:41] <kitche> m0dY: php-freak: it means list directory contents sorta like dir in windows
[05:41] <php-freak> same as dir
[05:41] <whis1> php-freak: yes
[05:42] <m0dY> kitche ?!
[05:42] <kitche>  m0dY don't midn what I just said I had your name typed and din't realize it
[05:42] <php-freak> okay it says ZendStudio-5_1_0.bin
[05:42] <m0dY> kitche, np
[05:42] <sigp239> forget this....i'm going to wal-mart to buy windows....at least it works
[05:43] <doom> How can we submit packages to the repositories?
[05:43] <blameless> whalesalad: there is of course, openafs
[05:43] <matthew_> sigp239, you'll come back, they always do
[05:43] <zach634> lol @ sigp239
[05:43] <kitche> doom: look up contrib on the wiki it should tell you there someplace
[05:43] <doom> ok
[05:43] <defrysk> matthew_, no hes too smart for that :D
[05:43] <matthew_> defrysk, riiiiiiiigggggggghhhhhttttt
[05:43] <zach634> "<sigp239> $249.99? yeah right!"
[05:43] <matthew_> lol
[05:43] <php-freak> kitche: it says ZendStudio-5_1_0.bin
[05:44] <kitche> php-freak: hmm ok that works it odd that you got the libc.so.6 error maybe it has to deal with the libpthread.so perhaps
[05:44] <whis1> hmmm i still need help with errors on compiling agpart module if anyone can help
[05:44] <stepanstas> blameless: firefox doesnt want to launch now
[05:45] <php-freak> why is this a big deal?
[05:45] <blameless> stepanstas: what happens when you run it in a terminal?
[05:45] <whalesalad> blameless: this is os x to an ubuntu box (hence me being in the ubuntu room =]  )
[05:45] <stepanstas> Xlib: connection to ":0.0" refused by server - Xlib: No protocol specified - (firefox-bin:5517): Gtk-WARNING **: cannot open display:
[05:45] <blameless> whalesalad: just checking :).  well you could set up openafs on the ubuntu box (as the server) and connect to it with an afs client on the os x box.  afs was always too complicated for me to setup though
[05:46] <LinuxHelp> Does the "sync" mount option for ext3 disable just write-behind or read-ahead as well?
[05:46] <stepanstas> i seperated enters by -
[05:46] <kitche> php-freak: see if you have libc installed
[05:46] <php-freak> lol how do I do that
[05:46] <JoshJ> sudo apt-get install build-essential
[05:46] <whalesalad> blameless: if its too complicated to setup its not gonna work :) i gotta do something totally seamless
[05:46] <JoshJ> imo
[05:46] <blameless> stepanstas: are you logged into that terminal as a different user than the one running X
[05:47] <stepanstas> not sure what you mean, i am the only user on this compu
[05:47] <kitche> php-freak: well you can look in your cache or use synatpic or aptitude to see if you have it installed
[05:47] <blameless> stepanstas: are you logged into the terminal as root?  is the prompt a $ or a #
[05:48] <stepanstas> its ~$
[05:48] <x-r00t-x> hey what i do . the gnome bar is hanged => urgent
[05:48] <stepanstas> btw, no programs are launching for some reason, should i restart?
[05:48] <blameless> try logging out and logging back in
[05:48] <php-freak> Ktiche: you done lost me on that one,
[05:48] <blameless> x probably needs to be restarted
[05:49] <x-r00t-x> then i will lost my all works :-S
[05:49] <stepanstas> k, be back
[05:49] <x-r00t-x> i need something like killall gnome-bar
[05:49] <kitche> php-freak: aptitude and synaptic is frontends package managers for apt
[05:49] <JoshJ> gnome-panel
[05:49] <matthew_> x-r00t-x, try logging out, hitting alt+e and logging back in
[05:49] <JoshJ> killall gnome-panel
[05:49] <x-r00t-x> its works :)
[05:49] <php-freak> kitche: i see, but what do I do?
[05:50] <JoshJ> in the future do ps -e to see a list of all the process
[05:50] <JoshJ> then kill it by number, much better that way
[05:50] <kitche> php-freak: in aptitude it should have a section that says installed programs and see if libc is installed
[05:50] <JoshJ> isn't libc a part of build-essential?
[05:51] <kitche> JoshJ: it should be part of the linux even not part of build-essential
[05:51] <JoshJ> heh
[05:51] <JoshJ> you mean GNU coreutils?
[05:51] <kitche> JoshJ: no it's it's own package
[05:51] <kitche> but a lot of applications need it like the base install
[05:51] <JoshJ> ah, you mean part of the distro, not part of the kernel
[05:52] <kitche> JoshJ: yeah since one time I upgraded my system and it broke do to libc was missing
[05:52] <stepanstas> hey blameless, im back
[05:52] <JoshJ> kitche: heh
[05:52] <php-freak> kitche: where do I go to see this info?
[05:52] <stepanstas> it was working untill i went on a site that needed the plugin
[05:53] <kitche> php-freak: you inside aptitude?
[05:53] <stepanstas> i installed it through firefox
[05:53] <stepanstas> and same problem
[05:53] <php-freak> lol
[05:53] <php-freak> ktiche: is it a folder, or what?
[05:53] <kitche> php-freak: aptitude is a program runs in cli
[05:53] <php-freak> okay im there
[05:53] <php-freak> I see
[05:53] <php-freak> nice
[05:53] <php-freak> so this is how i can see all the packages that are installed
[05:54] <kitche> php-freak: go inside the install programs section then go to base and see if libc is in there
[05:54] <php-freak> nope
[05:54] <whis1> hi where can i get dh_testdir
[05:54] <php-freak> how odd, I wonder why its missing that
[05:55] <stepanstas> blameless, what am i doing wrong?
[05:55] <gleesond> can someone tell me what the meta pkg is called for develpers... i.e. contains c c++ svn
[05:56] <LinuxHelp> Also, does data=ordered obsolete data=journal? Or is there still some merit to data=journal?
[05:56] <php-freak> kitche: how would I reinstall it
[05:56] <jrib> gleesond: you probably want build-essential.  subversion for svn
[05:57] <php-freak> kitche: or wait hold on
[05:57] <gleesond> jrib: thank you that is what I was looking for, just couldn't remember the name
[05:57] <grndslm> hey...i just got this Asus WL-500G Premium...but for some reason DHCP won't work on the LAN side
[05:58] <racarter> linux filesystems do not save the creation time of files
[05:58] <grndslm> It gives me a local IP address, but I couldn't hit the internet until I assigned myself a static ip
[05:58] <racarter> is that true?
[05:58] <php-freak> kitche: libc6 is under main fully supported software?
[06:00] <con-man> join #beryl
[06:00] <con-man> join #beryl
[06:00] <zm635> how can I access networked folders from the command line?
[06:00] <kitche> php-freak:  yeah you want libc6
[06:01] <php-freak> okay then update it?
[06:01] <php-freak> kitche: should I try updating it?
[06:01] <binarydigit> zm635: can you be more specific
[06:02] <kitche> php-freak: yeah since that's what you need to install Zendstudio
[06:02] <zm635> trying to use dd to backup this hard drive to a networked folder on a window machine accessable at smb://ZACH/Drop box 3/
[06:02] <IdleOne> I installed samba. now how do I access windows machine?
[06:02] <php-freak> Kitche: Do I need to restart anything after words
[06:03] <zm635> so like, if i wanted to change directory to it, what would I type after "cd"?
[06:03] <php-freak> Kitche: I updated it, and im still getting the same errors

[06:05] <orestyle5_> what is a good prgram to use in Ubuntu to import and edit videos from digital recorder?
[06:06] <binarydigit> zm635: did you mount the samba share
[06:06] <zm635> it's on the desktop, I dont know though how to do it through the command line though
[06:07] <JoshJ> ...heh
[06:07] <binarydigit> if you goto /mnt
[06:07] <binarydigit> do you see it listed there
[06:07] <zm635> nope
[06:07] <zm635> nothing is there

[06:08] <matthew_> zm635, try /media
[06:08] <php-freak>  ktiche: you there?

[06:14] <nolimitsoya> php-freak, yes
[06:14] <mrclark> boneheaded question two: are core 2 systems ia64?  or would that be the older xeon stuff ?
[06:14] <nolimitsoya> mrclark, that would be x64
[06:14] <php-freak> nolimitsoya: same thing grep: error while loading shared libraries: libc.so.6: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
[06:14] <nolimitsoya> mrclark, ia64 is itanium
[06:15] <mrclark> nolimitsoya, ah, okay.  i'm out of the hardware loop..
[06:15] <nolimitsoya> php-freak, then i cant help you :) at least, i think not. what are you trying to do?
[06:15] <TehUni> i have a custom kernel that refuses to boot, but the generic one works fine. I'm trying to view the logs from the failed custom-kernel boot, but i dont see any traces. where else should i look other than /var/log/kern and /var/log/messages  ?
[06:15] <ISOLATEDViRuS> Between two evils, I always pick the one I never tried before.
[06:15] <ISOLATEDViRuS>   - Mae West
[06:15] <php-freak> nolimitsoya: install zend developers kit
[06:15] <php-freak> zend studio
[06:15] <mrclark> nolimitsoya, where do the x64 installers live? or is it just AMD64 stuff right now?
[06:16] <nolimitsoya> mrclark, amd64 is x64. intels current 64bit architecture is a photocopy of the amd one
[06:16] <Mixx`> are there instructions out there for how to (easily) upgrade to the 2.19 kernel?  I've looked and nothing seems tailored to ubuntu
[06:17] <mrclark> nolimitsoya, so using amd64 installers on an intel core 2 system is kosher?
[06:17] <Lapfunc> o
[06:17] <Lapfunc> lo
[06:17] <nolimitsoya> Mixx`, youd want feisty. anyway, a kernel is just dropin
[06:17] <nolimitsoya> mrclark, yes
[06:17] <mrclark> nolimitsoya, ah, great.  i shall inform my less-than-clueful friend that he's downloaded the wrong livecd, then :-)
[06:18] <nolimitsoya> mrclark, :P
[06:18] <zm635> How do I access a shared windows folder through the command line?
[06:18] <php-freak> how can i check what ubuntu version i have?
[06:18] <nolimitsoya> zm635, shared as in samba share? anyhow, id guess you just navigate to its mountpoint using cd <folder>
[06:18] <TehUni> php-freak: uname -r
[06:18] <whis1> uname -r
[06:18] <php-freak> now whats -r mean?
[06:18] <defrysk> release
[06:19] <zm635> nolimitsoya: yes, samba, but I don't know it's mount point
[06:19] <whis1> srsly someone help me out with http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/35151/
[06:19] <php-freak> 2.6.17-10-generic
[06:19] <php-freak> thats old version of unbuntu aint it?
[06:19] <defrysk> php-freak, try cat /etc/issue
[06:19] <whis1> don't matter for your problem
[06:19] <nolimitsoya> zm635, just cd /<where ever you want to go>. if you dont know where you want to go, youre out of luck, as always :)
[06:19] <php-freak> well I found out whats wrong
[06:20] <zm635> ...
[06:20] <php-freak> am I using a old version of ubuntu?
[06:20] <nolimitsoya> php-freak, no, thats current edgy
[06:20] <php-freak> http://www.zend.com/support/knowledgebase.php?kbid=226&view_only=1
[06:20] <php-freak> there where I went
[06:20] <php-freak> check it out
[06:20] <defrysk> uname -r gives kernel-version
[06:20] <defrysk> cat /etc/issue give you your ubuntu version
[06:20] <nolimitsoya> php-freak, your kernel version is the current edgy one. you are up to date
[06:20] <monsterb> Has anyone tried the game Pang Zero? I made a AMD64 edgy deb ... anyone want to test it??
[06:21] <nolimitsoya> zm635, ?
[06:21] <php-freak> I need to learn all these linux commands
[06:21] <zm635> you got fish faces that's ?
[06:21] <Mixx`> nolimitsoya - ok so it sounds like it's not recommended to try to upgrade edgy to 2.19 then
[06:21] <zm635> faced rather

[06:25] <binarydigit> zm635: use the mount -t smbfs
[06:25] <cew_musik> surabaya
[06:25] <binarydigit> to mount it to a place you know of
[06:25] <orestyle5_> zm635:  what are you trying to do?
[06:25] <binarydigit> so you can cd to it
[06:25] <cnc> It woked on XP and some other linux distros

[06:28] <orestyle5_> zm635:  then you should be prompted with password for windows network password.

[06:28] <maquis> hi!  I'm trying to add chinese language support to an existing ubuntu installation, and I've been having all types of problems.  My system won't let me change locales because the other locales don't exist.  Any suggestions?
[06:28] <monsterb> website: http://apocalypse.rulez.org/pangzero/Pang_Zero (source)    deb file : http://monsterb.org/pangzero_0.16-1_amd64.deb (need a tester - works great on my machice)
[06:29] <cnc> Anybody knows how to install USB ports on Ubuntu 6.06 ?
[06:29] <JoshJ> !chinese
[06:29] <cnc> lsusb returns nothing

[06:31] <JoshJ> also language-support-zh is the metapackage
[06:31] <JoshJ> might solve all the problems in one go

[06:38] <firefly2442> orestyle5_: avidemux
[06:38] <whalesalad> hey guys, its me again. i just took my new server off of the public internet and moved it inside my network, but now i need to reconfigure it to work with DHCP (its a dev server, we dont really need it to be publicly acessable so dhcp will work fine)
[06:38] <whalesalad> how can i do that?
[06:38] <roostishaw> is the current version 6.10?
[06:38] <zm635> magical power button! save me!
[06:38] <nolimitsoya> roostishaw, yes
[06:38] <roostishaw> thanks
[06:38] <zm635> haha i took the livecd out
[06:38] <zm635> gg!
[06:38] <monsterb> firefly2442, it might only work on AMD64
[06:39] <zm635> it's silly, it ejects, then sucks back in
[06:39] <nolimitsoya> whalesalad, open up you network configuration, and just select the interface you want to configure; change it to dhcp :)
[06:39] <Mitso> hi
[06:39] <cnc> Anybody knows what is the arquive to configure USB ports ?
[06:39] <spx2> whalesalad maybe network-admin is what you need...
[06:39] <spx2> monsterb ?
[06:39] <whalesalad> nolimitsoya: this is the server distrobution, no gui :) how can I reconfigure the box from the command line
[06:39] <Mitso> im new to this and i need to find a room how do i search it?
[06:40] <monsterb> firefly2442, why are you running a 32bit kernel??
[06:40] <firefly2442> monsterb: do you have it in the Ubuntu software repositories?
[06:40] <nolimitsoya> whalesalad, man ifconfig, perhaps? :)
[06:40] <firefly2442> monsterb: I wanted to be safe and make sure my apps would run
[06:40] <cnc> plz guys, I need to use USB, or i can' t leave Window$ in 2007
[06:40] <spx2> cnc so ?
[06:40] <cnc> so... How can i get my USB ports alive?
[06:40] <monsterb> firefly2442, no not in repo
[06:41] <binarydigit> they are alive
[06:41] <whalesalad> well first step is plugging a monitor into this sucker since I cant connect to it via ssh anymore :) but isnt there some console utility I can run, similar to the installer that will do this? (you can do it with redhad, and im pretty sure I did it once with ubuntu)
[06:41] <cnc> nope
[06:41] <cnc> lsusb returns nothing
[06:41] <spx2> cnc they are autodetected...actually..
[06:41] <cnc> theyre ON on BIOS
[06:41] <binarydigit> do you have anything plugged into them
[06:41] <orestyle5_> spx2:  the point of comming to the channel is to get help.   That is the only way people are gonna move from windows...
[06:41] <cnc> on XP and other LIN distros they works
[06:41] <monsterb> spx2 what's up?
[06:41] <nolimitsoya> cnc, i have no idea. make a post in the forums, and perhaps file a bugreport on launchpad. also, try out dapper, if you are on edgy now
[06:41] <nolimitsoya> or vice versa
[06:41] <spx2> whalesalad vector linux has this utility its called netcardconfig
[06:41] <cnc> I have a webcam now there
[06:42] <cnc> but nothing hapens
[06:42] <cnc> no printer too
[06:42] <cnc> no P93 Sony too
[06:42] <cnc> Nothing
[06:42] <CzarAlex> Anyone able to get .m4v files to play?
[06:42] <binarydigit> when you plug them in, anything show up in dmesg?
[06:42] <spx2> monsterb well...my eyes are really red...because i stood up all night again without doing next to nothing...
[06:42] <cnc> nothing on dmesg too
[06:42] <orestyle5_> cnc:  reinstall, maybe it will install second time
[06:42] <rummik> is 6.06 not recieving updates?
[06:42] <umista> is there a way to upgrade firefox from 1.5 > 2.0 with 6.06?

[06:43] <peanutb> how would i generate the MD5 hashes for many files in a directory for a package?
[06:43] <cnc> lspci command on terminal
[06:43] <spx2> czaralex did you mean m4v or mv4 ?
[06:43] <orestyle5_> cnc:  so you have installed several times with no luck.  so none of the usb ports work?
[06:44] <monsterb> spx2, sit down for a little
[06:44] <CzarAlex> spx2: m4v video files. i think they're for ipods.
[06:44] <umista> backports?
[06:44] <php-freak> isn't there linux certifications?
[06:44] <cnc> theyre shown on dmesg
[06:44] <cnc> but nothing is detected there
[06:45] <cnc> or nothing returns on lsusb command
[06:45] <orestyle5_> cnc:  and when you plug something into them (mouse, thumb drive, etc) nothing happens?

Right now it is configued for a static ip, I need to configure it to work with DHCP and automatically recieve an ip from my router. is tehre a place I can go to figure out how to do this, or is there someone here to help me
[06:47] <binarydigit> cnc: try modprobe uhci_hcd and echi_hcd
[06:48] <nolimitsoya> whalesalad, perhaps this will help you? :) -> http://www.redhat.com/docs/manuals/linux/RHL-8.0-Manual/custom-guide/s1-dhcp-configuring-client.html
[06:48] <spx2> whalesalad do you have a dhcp server running on your server ?
[06:48] <CzarAlex> nolimitsoya: vlc worked! thanks.
[06:48] <whalesalad> spx2: no, i need the server configured as a dhcp client
[06:48] <orestyle5_> cnc:  this is long shot, but I wonder if the drivers are loading too soon.  I had issues with system loading drivers in debian, I had to compile kernel with specific drivers
[06:48] <nolimitsoya> CzarAlex, np :)
[06:48] <spx2> whalesalad are you sure that's what you want ?
[06:49] <whalesalad> yes, im certain
[06:49] <whalesalad> its a dev box
[06:49] <cnc> FATAL: Module echi_hcd not found.
[06:49] <spx2> whalesalad what's a dev box supposed to mean ?

[06:49] <whalesalad> its a developer box, im a web developer, this isnt going to be a production machine, its on my internal network, so I need DHCP
[06:49] <cnc> how can i recompile the drivers?
[06:49] <nolimitsoya> whalesalad, did you check out the link?
[06:50] <whalesalad> yea
[06:50] <spx2> whalesalad yes ,but "web developing" is not quite developing,it's more near to "loosing time for money"
[06:50] <binarydigit> cnc: sorry ehci_hcd
[06:50] <nolimitsoya> whalesalad, was i helpfull?
[06:50] <whalesalad> spx2: what exactly are you getting at? if you can help me help me, if not shut up, i dont need your snide comments.

[06:55] <magusknight> where is xorg.conf located?
[06:55] <binarydigit> /etc/X11/
[06:55] <nolimitsoya> magusknight, /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[06:55] <eyequeue> i keep running into the same problem every few months and never seem to recall how i fixed it the last time.  (a couple of hours of hair-pulling each time)
[06:55] <binarydigit> orestyle5_: didn't really "find" them, they are just commands for kernel modules
[06:55] <cnc> nothing on dmesg again
[06:56] <Laosboyme> somebody know how to put glass effect on ubuntu?
[06:56] <magusknight> exit
[06:56] <eyequeue> running apache2, i seem to have some "wildcard" feature on one of my vhosts, but can't seem to see where to disable it
[06:56] <cnc> but on lsusb it need to show something , right?
[06:56] <umista> sweet found a nice little script thats doing it for me.
[06:56] <nolimitsoya> Laosboyme, check out beryl, and muirine
[06:56] <Laosboyme> how will i install it?

[06:57] <eyequeue> does this ring any bells with someone?
[06:57] <johnram> monsterb ?
[06:57] <orestyle5_> binarydigit:  so they basically will reload modules that might not have been loaded my the kernel or missed at startup?
[06:57] <umista> so now i have 6.06 up and running wht should i be learnin on linux?
[06:57] <johnram> how are you monsterb ?
[06:57] <johnram> are you well ?

[06:58] <eyequeue> i can identify which of the sites in sites-enabled it is sending me to, by creating dummy files in each vhost and seeing which files show up when i browse to the newly-created vhost ... it is NOT the one i just created of course
[06:59] <cnc> My USB ports just dont work
