[21:12] <BorkisDrizzt> screw firefox, Opera all the way
[21:12] <astra-work> is there a good way to purge all kde3.x from your system and just leave kde4?
[21:12] <cerebrate> D-Tail, open up a terminal, and cd to /media/RS-MMC
[21:12] <BCM43> chicobo329: im running 2 right now
[21:12] <[D-Tail]> cerebrate: would it be safe for me to do chown -R d-tail:d-tail RS-MMC/?
[21:13] <cerebrate> Jaikkuli: have you checked the hardware compatibility list?
[21:13] <chicobo329> BCM43: I have no clue why FF3 suddenly got rabies and is causing problems with the rest of my laptop. There is a RC-1 out isn't there? I have beta 5 and it won't auto update to RC-1 (Synaptic shows only b5 as the latest)
[21:13] <cerebrate> D-Tail: I have no clue.
[21:13] <[D-Tail]> please don't forget, I can only sudo-cd into there
[21:13] <BCM43> !firefoxRC1 | chicobo329
[21:13] <cerebrate> D-Tail: I don't think it'd hurt though, considering you're wanting to format it anyway...
[21:13] <evanderv> Lynet:  Thanks that fixed it
[21:13] <evanderv> Had to rename a bunch of files such as nsswitch and such
[21:14] <[D-Tail]> cerebrate: that would be the next step indeed... there's lots of weird files in the directory, probably the disk structure is broken
[21:14] <Jaikkuli> cerebrate: where might i find that?
[21:14] <[D-Tail]> how can I format it?
[21:14] <LogiTech> how to put music which i have downloaded from limewire "to" "mp4 touch" ??? pls help some1...if this isnt right channel then where do i have to go?
[21:14] <cerebrate> D-Tail: you could use parted, but I would go with a nice gui, so go and install gparted
[21:14] <BCM43> chicobo329: ubuntu devs. are at summit meeting, cant get it untill later
[21:15] <Minarr> i got a problem, how to convince my dad so that i can install ubuntu? this is kinda hes computer but i use this. right now im using the live cd
[21:15] <ivanmerida> hi..
[21:15] <Steve-cal> majikins: Doesn't look good--your wireless card doesn't even show up in lspci. Am I wrong in assuming it is PCI installed? or are you using a USB wireless device?
[21:15] <[D-Tail]> cerebrate: I already have that, but it doesn't seem to notice the RS-MMC card
[21:15] <chicobo329> BCM43: Oh okay! I'll settle with FF2 for now push comes to shove. Thanks for the help
[21:15] <[D-Tail]> after all, it's mounted from an USB device
[21:15] <cerebrate> Jaikkuli: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupport
[21:15] <Gin> Minarr: buy him a beer
[21:15] <BorkisDrizzt> also, burning the pictures along with the presentation failed hard
[21:15] <BCM43> chicobo329: your welcome
[21:15] <Boohbah> Minarr: show him how to do all the things he does with his current OS
[21:15] <Lynet> evanderv: Fixed login, or did it fix synaptic too?
[21:15] <evanderv> ok new problem I can't open up any administrative applications
[21:15] <[D-Tail]> oh wait, now it sees the disk, how weird...
[21:15] <majikins> Steve-cal: apparently its usb - but it is onboard
[21:15] <nibsa1242b> Steve-cal: Ok, problem fixed. I had 2 versions of Flash installed to my /home/.mozilla/plugins/ directory. After removing them, and installing the plugin from the repo I now have sound during Flash videos.
[21:15] <evanderv> such as synaptic
[21:15] <ivanmerida> i'm installing ubuntu from boot cd, on our university we have a ubuntu repository but when i try to configure manually i dont know how to do it
[21:15] <[D-Tail]> I guess I can manage on my own from here, cerebrate... thanks so much so far!
[21:15] <ivanmerida> what i have to put?
[21:15] <evanderv> and authentication properties
[21:16] <LogiTech> how to put music which i have downloaded from limewire "to" "mp4 touch" ??? pls help some1...if this isnt right channel then where do i have to go?
[21:16] <cerebrate> D-Tail: you're welcome I guess
[21:16] <evanderv> it just hangs then stops
[21:16] <ivanmerida> ftp://ftp.ula.ve/ubuntu/
[21:16] <evanderv> no error or nothing
[21:16] <ivanmerida> this is the repository
[21:16] <Boohbah> ivanmerida: add your repository to /etc/apt/sources.list
[21:16] <Boohbah> !repo
[21:16] <ph_softnet> hi all.
[21:16] <Steve-cal> nibsa1242b: Great! So you just manually removed the files in the plugins directory? No special uninstallation necessary?
[21:16] <[D-Tail]> cerebrate: I'll come back to you when I have mounting problems again, I guess the root-only 'feature' hasn't gone away... we'll see!
[21:16] <Lynet> evanderv: Do you see anything suspicious in the system logs?
[21:16] <ivanmerida> Boohbah, but i'm on install cd.. i cant modify /etc/apt/sources.list
[21:17] <Steve-cal> majikins: Try "lsusb -v" to look for USB devices.
[21:17] <Boohbah> ivanmerida: did you try? i thought the livecd filesystem was loaded into a ramdisk
[21:17] <ph_softnet> is there an application to maintain albums of digital camera photos?My camera can be mounted as a flash disk.
[21:17] <Jaikkuli> cerebrate: doesnt list my specific model
[21:17] <Boohbah> ph_softnet: f-spot, but i hear it has problems
[21:18] <ivanmerida> Boohbah i have the minimal boot cd
[21:18] <cerebrate> Jaikkuli: then you probably don't have compatibility for that camera
[21:18] <Boohbah> ivanmerida: did you try?
[21:18] <ph_softnet> Boohbah, thanx
[21:18] <nibsa1242b> Steve-cal: yeah, just a manual deleting was all that was necessary. I did have to go into about:config and change plugin.expose_full_path to true so that I knew where the 3 versions were. And I happen to be running firefox <IP_ADDRESS>.
[21:18] <Jaikkuli> cerebrate: well i probably do actually.. many other brother laptops have the same one
[21:18] <bipolar> is there any way to retrive the code name of the version of ubuntu a system is running? I need to script something that downloads a diffrent file depending on the version of ubuntu.
[21:18] <ivanmerida> Boohbah it dont have /etc/apt/sources.list when i enter to a shell with alt f2
[21:19] <cl0s> i keep getting this error http://paste.ubuntu.com/15401/ when I try running virtualbox
[21:19] <evanderv> Lynet:  No nothing that sparks a problem
[21:19] <KOJV> Help me with http://people.debian.org/~dz/i8k/ please!
[21:19] <Steve-cal> nibsa1242b: I'll have to remember that trick. I'm using FF2 also.
[21:19] <Jaikkuli> cerebrate: further more i think i accomplished it last year, on an earlier version of ubuntu

[21:19] <cl0s> i did a sudo apt-get  on virtualbox-ose-modules and -generic

[21:20] <Steve-cal> KOJV: Why are you trying to install that? It is a Debian package--may not work or be stable in Ubuntu.
[21:20] <KOJV> Please! Anyone?
[21:20] <KOJV> Steve, it's the only way to turn the fans on...
[21:20] <Boohbah> cl0s: yes, i had the same issue. i believe i installed the non-OSE binary directly from the virtualbox site and it was fixed
[21:20] <cdc> Is this the channel to speak about Hardy Heron or is that still in a different channel?
[21:21] <Boohbah> cdc: i think it's ok to talk about hardy in here since it's the current version
[21:21] <KOJV> Steve, on this Inspiron Laptop.
[21:21] <evanderv> Lynet:  Wait I can now open it using gksudo synaptic
[21:21] <evanderv> but I can't from gnome itself
[21:21] <KOJV> Steve-cal, can you help me install it? Please! I'm out of lung capacity soon.
[21:21] <PdUb101> hey guys im kinda confused on how to install themes, i downloaded GrayDark-Ice.emerald, and im not sure how to apply it to my Ubuntu 8.04
[21:21] <Chaotic_Descent> not sure if this applies, but how do I make a Windows XP partition after I've already put Ubuntu partitions on?
[21:22] <BCM43> KOJV: what do you need help with?
[21:22] <KOJV> BCM43: http://people.debian.org/~dz/i8k/
[21:22] <evanderv> Lynet:  it wont ask for my password anymore like it use too
[21:22] <Chaotic_Descent> Will the Windows CD work fine, or will it get confused by the Ubuntu partitions and screw something up? Also, where do I get the dual-boot enabled?
[21:22] <BCM43> !install | Chaotic_Descent
[21:22] <Boohbah> Chaotic_Descent: with the windows installer
[21:22] <cl0s> thanks Boohbah.. will try
[21:22] <BCM43> !dualboot  | Chaotic_Descent
[21:22] <Boohbah> Chaotic_Descent: dual boot is enabled in /boot/grub/menu.lst
[21:23] <the_eraser> i want to know what driver a pci-device is using. Help me?
[21:23] <majikins> Steve-cal: from what I have read of my board, its the realtek
[21:23] <Boohbah> Chaotic_Descent: it was setup automatically for me with my existing windows partition, so you'll have to edit it manually if you install windows after linux
[21:23] <Lynet> evanderv: Hmm.. Does gksu work?
[21:23] <nickthorley> hi all - if i wish to clear a users mail file I can just 0 the mail file cant I so "">usersmailfile ?
[21:23] <KOJV> chaotic, I've found it easiest to install Ubuntu and different Windows versions each on their very own physical drive.
[21:23] <BCM43> KOJV: what bout that?
[21:23] <KOJV> BCM43; I can't make it run.,
[21:23] <evanderv> Lynet:  Yes
[21:23] <BCM43> KOJV: what is it?
[21:23] <Jaikkuli> where can i get GSPCA? or is it included in ubuntu hardy? aparently it enables use of my webcam.. however i cannot see how to use it at least
[21:23] <Chaotic_Descent> ok I'll go look.
[21:24] <KOJV> BCM43: Fan controlling system.
[21:24] <Circe> Does this channel seem to produce a lot of lag?
[21:24] <Chaotic_Descent> Well... I'm just getting tired of having to go into the bios every time I want to boot from the other partition.
[21:24] <Boohbah> Circe: no
[21:24] <BCM43> KOJV: is it compiled or do you need to?
[21:24] <pen> anyone here know how to make miro work with alsa not pulseaudio?
[21:24] <cerebrate> Jaikkuli: gspca should be installed by default in 8.04
[21:24] <aks_> hello
[21:24] <BCM43> Circe: a little
[21:24] <pen> it plays but no sound
[21:24] <BCM43> !hi | aks_
[21:24] <KOJV> BCM: I have no idea, got no programming skills. Please download and check it out.
[21:24] <Chuggst3r> BCM43: I fixed it :D
[21:24] <ubuntu> HI
[21:24] <BCM43> Chuggst3r: what was it?
[21:24] <aks_> I'm wondering whether the hibernation issues that some laptops had are fixed in Hardy?
[21:24] <Chaotic_Descent> my other HD is IDE so... it won't let me change partitions without rearranging which drives are first..
[21:24] <BCM43> !hi | ubuntu
[21:24] <Lynet> evanderv: Weird, cause starting synaptic from the menu shouldn't be anything else than 'gksu /usr/bin/synaptic'
[21:24] <Chuggst3r> BCM43: The beta drivers I had weren't removed.
[21:25] <BCM43> Chuggst3r: oh
[21:25] <BCM43> KOJV: hold on, i need to swich to my ubuntu computer
[21:25] <evanderv> Lynet:  Yes you are right I checked the porperites in the menu editor and its right
[21:25] <Chuggst3r> BCM43: I didn't realise, I though removing nvidia-glx-new would do it...apparently not.
[21:25] <KOJV> Thank you BCM43!
[21:25] <Chuggst3r> BCM43: The regular installer didn't see them for some reason either...no idea why.
[21:25] <yacc> Is it possible with iptables to make TCP connections to host <IP_ADDRESS> port 345 go to say localhost:1234 ?
[21:25] <pen> anyone here know how to make miro work with alsa not pulseaudio?
[21:25] <pen> it plays but no sound
[21:25] <BCM43> Chuggst3r: are you using aptitude ore apt-get
[21:25] <ubuntu> I really need help. Ubuntu 8.04 setup is using one of my partition as /usr, i told it not to format and it told me it would delte **older system files** I sais yes, that would mean the only folder of personal info I had there with a non linux system folder name wouldn't bve deleted.
[21:26] <Steve-cal> majikins: I don't know how to help you because I'm not sure what chipset you have--it might be that "8187" line but I'm not sure.
[21:26] <Chuggst3r> apt-get
[21:26] <marko_> Juvenal_Antena, is spamming
[21:26] <ubuntu> The stupid installer erased that as well!
[21:26] <yacc> Is it possible with iptables to make TCP connections to host <IP_ADDRESS> port 345 go to say localhost:1234 ? (not on the router, but on the box that is initiating the connection)
[21:26] <Chaotic_Descent> I don't know why Ubuntu won't let me create an NTFS partition just to be on the safe side.
[21:26] <Chuggst3r> Should I be using aptitude?
[21:26] <ubuntu> is there a way to restore?
[21:26] <BCM43> Chuggst3r: i like it better
[21:26] <ali1234> yacc: yes
[21:26] <Chuggst3r> BCM43: I'll keep that in mind, I'm just happy in the end :D
[21:26] <yacc> ali1234: Any hints?
[21:26] <aks_> does anyone have problems with sleep and hibernation in Ubuntu 8?
[21:26] <Chuggst3r> BCM43: Thanks for everything though.
[21:26] <ubuntu> the folder was colled 2doc and it was inside /usr, anyway to recover?
[21:26] <yacc> ali1234: how to configure it?
[21:26] <majikins> Steve-cal: ok - I've dug up on the forums but there hasn't been any conclusive solution
[21:26] <cl0s> Why do you need ubuntu to create an ntfs partition?
[21:27] <BCM43> Chuggst3r: your welcome
[21:27] <ali1234> yacc: no idea, but i know it is possible. try looking at setting up a transparent http proxy, that is kind of similar to what you want
[21:27] <majikins> Steve-cal: everyone just basically says buy a real wifi card!
[21:27] <wiiman119>  hey I'm installing on a nvraid setup its all installed but the boot loader. how do i go about this thanks for the help
[21:27] <majikins> Steve-cal: but thanks for trying
[21:27] <ibioss> Hey! Is there a Bittorrent client in which I can choose exactly what files I want to download?
[21:28] <Chaotic_Descent> is there any risk of the Windows installer screwing up the partitions? just wondering why they keep telling me to install Windows first. I can't do that at this point.
[21:28] <sagredo> ibioss: Azureus lets you download individual files
[21:28] <yacc> ali1234: yeah, but these usually run on the firewall, not on the clients.
[21:28] <jrib> !grub > Chaotic_Descent (read the private message from ubottu)
[21:28] <jrib> Chaotic_Descent: you'll need to reinstall grub if you install windows after ubuntu
[21:28] <KOJV> BCM43: Can you get the program running?
[21:28] <ali1234> yacc: they don't have to though
[21:28] <ibioss> sagredo: thx, you know any other? azureus feels so bloated
[21:28] <sagredo> ibioss: I do not. Good luck though
[21:28] <Chaotic_Descent> oh, thanks.
[21:28] <BCM43> KOJV: im looking at how to install it
[21:29] <ibioss> sagredo: thx
[21:29] <Steve-cal> majikins: I did a quick check and I think that "8187" is the chipset on your realtek card. I believe you can try ndiswrapper to get it going.
[21:29] <Chaotic_Descent> thank you for informing me on what the issue was.
[21:29] <majikins> Steve-cal: ok - how do I do that?
[21:29] <Dante123> hi all, i am hooking up cd drive to evga 650 i mobo...there is one set of ide pins on the mobo and I am using the 80 wire ribbon that came with mobo....if the cddrive is set as master with jumpers.....and the ide ribbon cable has two ide female slots....does it matter which one plugs into the cddrive....end one or middle?
[21:29] <BCM43> KOJV: download it, extract, and move into the folder
[21:30] <PdUb101> question please, i acquired a theme that says "This is an Emerald themes for the Dar-Ice GTK themes" does that mean i need to download GTK app?
[21:30] <Lynet> yacc: On a router you would do some preroute rule to rewrite the packet address. For packets originating from the same box I think you need to do the rewrite in the output chain.
[21:30] <Steve-cal> majikins: Easiest way would be to use the "ndisgtk" GUI program in the repos, or you can do it at the command line. But I would try ndisgtk first if I were you.
[21:31] <Chaotic_Descent> is the Desktop/Live CD the Ubuntu installer CD?
[21:31] <majikins> Steve-cal: I'm relatively comfortable with cli
[21:31] <majikins> Steve-cal: but I will take your advice and install quickly :-)
[21:32] <KOJV> BCM43: Yes, then?
[21:32] <Lynet> yacc: But if I'm not mistaken the output chain is after the route decition, so in that case you would have to reinject the packet to the input chain so that it will be rerouted to the correct destination interface.
[21:32] <wiiman119> can some one help me install grub manually on my nvraid setup?
[21:32] <Lynet> yacc: ..but exactly *how* to do that is something I've forgotten a long time ago.
[21:32] <BCM43> KOJV: make, then sudo make install
[21:33] <Steve-cal> majikins: I forgot to mention since I assumed you knew, but to use ndiswrapper you need the Windows wireless drivers for your wireless card--do you have those?
[21:33] <majikins> Steve-cal: nope
[21:33] <MvG> My system won't boot; HDD LED flickers but no progress. I've got root on LVM using kubuntu hardy alternate setup CD. Was debugging an issue with HAL preventing powerdown/reboot, so I was rebooting in recover mode fairly often. Suddenly, reboot stopped somewhere in between, can't remember where. Only Idea I had was using the Magic SysReq key to SIGTERM all processes, which got me the emergency menu. After that, things got worse. Loading things would
[21:34] <majikins> Steve-cal: can I download it?
[21:34] <KOJV> BCM43: That's where I get a lot of errors.
[21:34]  * aks_ asks anyone who has a live CD handy or knows it well: can a system booted from a live CD be put into hibernate or sleep?
[21:34] <BCM43> KOJV: you get a lot of errors?
[21:34] <yacc> Lynet: Well, now we are two, my TCP/IP magician license expired at least 2-3 years ago ;(
[21:34] <BCM43> KOJV: which command? put it in paste bin
[21:34] <MvG> Now I'm worried that I might have somehow garbled the lvm or some such, and I'm on the point of reinstalling the whole system again. Do you see an alternative? Or have any suspicions what's keeping the system busy?
[21:34] <oc80z> u guu guys are assholes, all i had to do was date --set 5/28/2008 and Gnome would have started correctly.
[21:35] <oc80z> i formated.
[21:35] <oc80z> preciate it.
[21:35] <Steve-cal> majikins: Yes, you should be able to find the Windows drivers for your card, but it may take a bit of googling or looking around the RealTek site or something.
[21:35] <Steve-cal> majikins: Didn't you get anything like that with your computer?
[21:36] <biouser> when setting up evolution with gmail.. what server type should I choose?

[21:37] <sagredo> Hi, I'm trying to burn a DVD of Hardy, but all the programs I use are failing. Which application should I use?
[21:37] <jonny_> Yeah, im on irc in command line atm. I cant log into Gnome, when i try to i get the ubuntu brown background with an empty grey box in the top left. Any help would be apprecciated, cheers.
[21:37] <Boohbah> aks_: it can as long as ACPI is working correctly
[21:37] <BCM43> KOJV: you ran make before that?
[21:37] <Boohbah> oc80z: yes, a full reinstall is usually not the best option... you should have asked me
[21:38] <Dante123> hi ubuntu gods.....i just got evga 650i mobo, 2 gb dual channel memory, quad core cpu from intel.....do I got 32 bit version of hardy 8.04 or 64 bit?   You have to do aptitude install build-essentials first
[21:38] <Boohbah> Dante123: any gaming, stick to 32-bit
[21:38] <maximilion> hey guys :) Should I ask for a stable mp3 player here or in another channel?
[21:38] <cdecarlo> jonny_: have you set the driver in your xorg.conf to VGA?
[21:38] <BCM43> Dante123: from what i hear, 64bit is not great
[21:38] <BCM43> maximilion: another channel
[21:38] <Boohbah> Dante123: flash and java also have issues with 64-bit
[21:39] <maximilion> Right BCM43 , the name of the channel? :)
[21:39] <BCM43> !64-bit | Boohbah
[21:39] <jonny_> cdecarlo: Nope, i was playing around with the mouse, and i reconfiged the xorg, but ill check now.
[21:39] <jonaskoelker> maximilion: software or hardware?  sw -> mplayer
[21:39] <Boohbah> fully supported != stable or reliable
[21:39] <matija> I just installed Kubuntu on my Dell D600 with ati 9000 graphic. how can I check what driver is installed and how can I install driver to be able to use compiz ???
[21:39] <zathras_laptop> anyone got a solution to how to get automount working in 8.04?
[21:40] <BCM43> maximilion: wait, do you mean stable with ubuntu?
[21:40] <cdecarlo> jonny_: if you set it to VGA you should at least get to a GUI, then you can debug from there
[21:40] <maximilion> Well, I'm running 32-bit Gutsy Gibbon and VLC is not at all stable.
[21:40] <Boohbah> zathras_laptop: isn't that controlled by some gnome daemon?
[21:40] <jonny_> cdecarlo: No, nothing saying VGA. Where do i put the VGA thing?
[21:40] <Dante123> Boohbah thanks for advice
[21:40] <Assid> matija:  you shouldnt need anything.. it should work by default
[21:40] <crdlb> matija: the driver to use compiz is already installed, however ubuntu has a compiz blacklist of all laptops using the ati driver
[21:40] <Boohbah> maximilion: you could try amarok, the 1.4 branch is pretty stable...
[21:40] <lmosher> Is there an easy way to convert from .bin and .cue to .iso?
[21:40] <crdlb> matija: so if that's a laptop, you'll need to bypass the blacklist
[21:41] <matija> okay how do I do that ?
[21:41] <zathras_laptop> Boohbah, it stopped working for me when i upgraded
[21:41] <matija> I remember something when I had ati on my desktop
[21:41] <maximilion> If someone is happy with their mp3 player in their Ubuntu, I'll be happy to try... don't need fancy stuff like db or cataloging or visual fx, just want to select a few mp3s and play them in order :)
[21:41] <BCM43> maximilion: oh, duh, i thought you were talking about the hardware, such as an ipod
[21:41] <matija> crdlb, glxgears give me around 1000fps
[21:41] <maximilion> BCM43, don't worry :) Just was unsure about 'best this n that' discussions here
[21:42] <matija> crdlb, but when I enable desktop effects nothing happens
[21:42] <Armada> is there a command in the terminal to determine the CRC of a file
[21:42] <crdlb> matija: that doesn't really mean much :) please join #compiz-fusion for help with overriding the blacklist
[21:42] <Steve-cal> majikins: You still there? What's the status?
[21:42] <BCM43> maximilion: your not taking a poll, you want one fine one
[21:42] <jonny_> cdecarlo: Im going to restart the pc see if it helps.
[21:42] <matija> crdlb, okay I did that
[21:42] <Boohbah> zathras_laptop: try 'sudo apt-get install gnome-volume-manager'
[21:42] <Boohbah> zathras_laptop: or reinstall
[21:42] <gribiii> hi
[21:42] <majikins> Steve-cal: just dug up the cd with the drivers! :-)
[21:42] <BCM43> !mp3-player | maxim
[21:42] <Gokul> my wireless & sound card have stopped working after upgrading to hardy(8.04), anyone have any ideas how to fix this?
[21:42] <vbabiy-laptop> Hey guys is firefox 3 RC1 in the repo yet?
[21:42] <zathras_laptop> Boohbah, i'll try reinstall, as it's there
[21:42] <BCM43> !mp3| | maximilion
[21:42] <majikins> Steve-cal: now what?
[21:43] <KOJV> BCM43: okay running aptitude install build-essentials now...
[21:43] <BCM43> KOJV: remember to run as root
[21:43] <gribiii> can someone help me by the installation?
[21:43] <Boohbah> maximilion: you could try mpd, it's very minimal and has a few options for GUIs
[21:43] <BCM43> !install | gribiii
[21:43] <Steve-cal> mjaikins: Great, well just run that ndisgtk program and show it where your Windows drivers are (use Win XP if you have them).
[21:43] <Armada> can I use more than one directionaries in ubuntu?
[21:44] <Odd-rationale> gribiii: what troubles are you having?
[21:44] <Armada> *dictionaries
[21:44] <Boohbah> maximilion: my favorite is amarok, because i like the collection db and search functions
[21:44] <aks_> does anyone know if a system booted with Live CD can be put to sleep/hibernate?
[21:44] <Armada> lol
[21:44] <Gin> hi
[21:44] <BCM43> aks_: sleep yes, hibernate idk
[21:44] <Boohbah> aks_: yes
[21:44] <KOJV> BCM43: now what?
[21:44] <BCM43> !hi | Gin
[21:44] <gribiii> I just downloaded the alternate iso of kubuntu and tried to install on my notebook with 15.4' widescreen
[21:44] <Armada> aks_: why would you want to do that?
[21:44] <Boohbah> !acpi | aks_
[21:44] <majikins> Steve-cal: got drivers from win98 to xp
[21:44] <m13> i tried using this tutorial for internet sharing http://raldztech.blogspot.com/2005/12/how-to-share-internet-connection-in.html and i lost conection to internet completly. any tips how to fix this ?
[21:44] <gribiii> but when I start the installation, i've got a black screen
[21:44] <BCM43> KOJV: run the fist 2 commands
[21:44] <gribiii> and nothing goes on
[21:44] <Gin> what is the menu on the left bottom corner called in this demo video?
[21:44] <Jaikkuli> BCM43: wasnt long ago to my recollection flash wasn't exactly working well with 64bit ubuntu archs
[21:44] <cerebrate> maximilion: I use amarok, it's great.
[21:45] <Gin> http://www.novell.com/linux/demos/desktop.html
[21:45] <Armada> cerebrate: agreed
[21:45] <maximilion> ok, read the page, will go to Synaptic and get restricted stuff and try some players :)
[21:45] <Odd-rationale> gribiii: did you check the cd for defects?
[21:45] <Armada> is there a command in the terminal to determine the CRC of a file
[21:45] <Konam> somebody knows other projects similar to eBox (web interface to manage your servers)? I use to know a few ones but I have forgot about them :|
[21:45] <aks_> Armada: to test whether it will work properly on my laptop
[21:45] <Steve-cal> majikins: Use Win XP.
[21:45] <Armada> aks_: k, good luck
[21:45] <BCM43> Gin: why did you give that link to the channel?
[21:45] <biouser> http://tuxicity.wordpress.com/2007/03/08/howto-set-up-gmail-in-evolution-gnomes-mail-client-and-organizer/
[21:45] <gribiii> Odd-rationale, it's the same when i choose "Check CD for defects"
[21:45] <biouser> the answer to my previous question
[21:46] <aks_> there were some bugs with older versions, and I'd like to see if in Hardy they are resolved
[21:46] <Boohbah> gribiii: are you able to see a boot menu? try booting with no framebuffer if you can
[21:46] <Odd-rationale> gribiii: yes
[21:46] <aks_> thanks everyone
[21:46] <RoAkSoAx> Konam, webmin is other but is not longer supported by Ubuntu
[21:46] <Gin> BCM43: I want to know the name of the menu in that demo
[21:46] <gribiii> how can i disable framebuffer?
[21:46] <Armada> gribbii: burn the iso at a lower speed (12x or lower)
[21:46] <Gin> I want it on my ubuntu system
[21:46] <Boohbah> gribiii: some option at the grub menu
[21:46] <Gin> BCM43: it is thecomputer menu thing on the left bottom corner
[21:46] <Gokul> my wireless & sound card have stopped working after upgrading to hardy(8.04) using 2.6.24.x, anyone have any ideas how to fix this?
[21:46] <gribiii> Armada: I burned the iso with the same notebook as I'll start it so i think that shouldn't bee the problem
[21:46] <KOJV> BCM43: What are the two first commands?
[21:47] <Konam> RoAkSoAx why?
[21:47] <nonent> i went to install a package today, and noticed i'm getting 404's on: http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/ edgy-updates      is this an end of life thing?
[21:47] <majikins> Steve-cal: ok loaded the inf file - will now check
[21:47] <Cobra_Fast> hi
[21:47] <BCM43> KOJV: make and sudo make install
[21:47] <BCM43> !hi | Cobra_Fast
[21:47] <Armada> gribii: I burned an iso that wouldn't start on the PC I burned it on but did start on any other PC. When I burned at a lower speed it did work.
[21:47] <Armada> it's worth a shot
[21:47] <gribiii> hmm
[21:47] <RoAkSoAx> Konam, no longer compatible with Debian/Ubuntu config file structure or something like that
[21:48] <gribiii> Armada: but the bootloader comes
[21:48] <BCM43> Gin: no idea, never seen it before, must have somthing to do with the company
[21:48] <Gin> BCM43: do you know the name of it?
[21:48] <Armada> gribii: with me too
[21:48] <Cobra_Fast> since ubuntu 7.04 i have up to five Xorg crashes per day, and i dont know where they come from. Cause X crashes not while performing a specific task. no. it crashes whenever it wants
[21:48] <KOJV> BCM43: Still getting all them errors.
[21:48] <Armada> gribii: it just locks up on loading
[21:48] <Cobra_Fast> im actually using 7.10 with radeon driver
[21:48] <BCM43> KOJV: are you doing sudo make install?
[21:48] <Armada> gribii: when loading the live ubutnu that is
[21:48] <KOJV> BCM43: Yes.
[21:49] <Armada> is there a command in the terminal to determine the CRC of a file?
[21:49] <CydeWeys> Just to make sure I'm not missing anything, the "amd64" release will run on an Intel Core 2 Duo too, right?
[21:49] <Cobra_Fast> this is really annoying cause you cant really work with a pc which runs probably two hours and crashes and you have to reset
[21:49] <Konam> RoAkSoAx well, that wasn't the app I was tallking about. I'll have to do some more searching :| I just remember that the interface was kind of green
[21:49] <majikins> Steve-cal: um - it seems like I connected to access pt - how do I test to see for certain?
[21:49] <Cobra_Fast> with the older 6.10 my computer runs days without problems
[21:49] <Armada> CydeWeys: I don't think so
[21:49] <PdUb101> why is it so difficult to change themes lol
[21:49] <Cobra_Fast> with other distributions too
[21:49] <Cobra_Fast> so what can i doo?
[21:50] <Slart> Armada: sure.. have you tried running crc32 ?
[21:50] <BCM43> KOJV: im looking, hold on
[21:50] <Slart> Armada: you might have to install it if it isn't already
[21:50] <KOJV> Thank you BCM43!
[21:50] <Steve-cal> majikins: You could always try to load a webpage (google.com for instance), or try "ping google.com" at the CLI
[21:50] <CydeWeys> Armada: Then what 64-bit download will run on an Intel Core 2 Duo?
[21:50] <arfarf> upped to 8.04, what happened to the option to change mouse pointers?
[21:50] <gribiii> Armada: I'll try it again tomorrow ...
[21:50] <RoAkSoAx> Konam, wont know for sure... but Ubuntu recommeds eBox
[21:51] <Armada> CydeWeys: i386 if I'm correct
[21:51] <Armada> CydeWeys: but I don't have that much experience
[21:51] <gribiii> Armada: isn't i386 only 32bit?
[21:51] <Cobra_Fast> can someone help me getting my Xorg stable?
[21:51] <Armada> CydeWeys: I think I misspelled i386
[21:51] <CydeWeys> Armada: i386 won't run 64-bit
[21:51] <BCM43> KOJV: gksudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list     put it in pastebin
[21:51] <Armada> CydeWeys: was it i686? I can't remember
[21:51] <bastid_raZor> !amd64 | CydeWeys  .. this link may help
[21:52] <BCM43> !someone | Cobra_Fast
[21:52] <gribiii> CydeWeys: Do you really need 64bit?
[21:52] <Cobra_Fast> i already told my problem
[21:52] <Cobra_Fast> if you are too **** to read it
[21:52] <Cobra_Fast> ...
[21:52] <CydeWeys> Armada: i686 is Pentium 2
[21:52] <Cobra_Fast> okay once again
[21:53] <CydeWeys> gribiii: I'm not sure I understand the question?
[21:53] <arfarf> upped to 8.04, what happened to the option to change mouse pointers?
[21:53] <CydeWeys> gribiii: Is me wanting to run 64-bit not sufficient?
[21:53] <Cobra_Fast> my Xorg crashes daily up to five times
[21:53] <BCM43> Cobra_Fast: sorry, fast channel, did not see it
[21:53] <Cobra_Fast> since im using 7.04
[21:53] <Armada> CydeWeys: A long time since I last used 64-bit, sry
[21:53] <Cobra_Fast> 6.10 and other distris are running fine
[21:54] <Armada> CydeWeys: and I always get those ixxx confused XD
[21:54] <BCM43> !enter | Cobra_Fast
[21:54] <Boohbah> Cobra_Fast: anything useful in /var/log/Xorg.0.log   ?
[21:54] <Cobra_Fast> you like this bot?
[21:54] <BCM43> Cobra_Fast: you have an Open GL screen saver
[21:54] <majikins> Steve-cal: does not seem to be working - has not received an IP
[21:54] <gribiii> CydeWeys:  I also had amd64 but I had some problems ... some of the software didn't go
[21:54] <Cobra_Fast> no, i deactivated all screesavers
[21:54] <BCM43> Cobra_Fast: makes my fingers a less sore
[21:54] <Armada> CydeWeys: jsut look for programs with 64-bit in the description, that should work on any 64-bit CPU
[21:54] <CydeWeys> bastid_raZor: That linked page doesn't mention EM64T anywhere?
[21:54] <BCM43> Cobra_Fast: did you remove it?
[21:54] <shane__> how do i make my text bigger in XChat lol
[21:54] <majikins> Steve-cal: is there some command to see if I have connected successfully?
[21:55] <Cobra_Fast> no
[21:55] <Armada> CydeWeys: But those amd64 packages are specificly for that CPU
[21:55] <shane__> XChat gnome
[21:55] <CydeWeys> Armada: I'm trying to figure which ISO I should download to install Ubuntu to get a 640bit OS.
[21:55] <Cobra_Fast> i just turned it off
[21:55] <Boohbah> shane__: change the gnome text size
[21:55] <matija> I have 64bit on my desktop computer and everything works
[21:55] <CydeWeys> gribiii: Yeah, I'm aware there are some compatibility issues.  I want to do it anyway.
[21:55] <Cobra_Fast> well, wait im searching after an Xorg.log
[21:55] <Boohbah> Cobra_Fast: anything useful in /var/log/Xorg.0.log   ???
[21:55] <Cobra_Fast> im searching!!!
[21:55] <BCM43> Cobra_Fast: see if this helps
[21:55] <sarmento> Boa noite
[21:55] <Steve-cal> majikins: "ifconfig" and "iwconfig" will give you useful info.
[21:55] <BCM43> Cobra_Fast: calm down
[21:55] <Boohbah> Cobra_Fast: it's right there, in /var/log
[21:55] <gribiii> CydeWeys: How I know, you have to use the amd64 iso
[21:55] <Cobra_Fast> yep i found it :)
[21:56] <Armada> CydeWeys: Under "What type of computer do you have?" select "64bit AMD and Intel computers"
[21:56] <BCM43> Cobra_Fast: sorry, forgot the link<EMAIL_ADDRESS>[21:56] <Boohbah> Cobra_Fast: does it tell you why your z server crashed?
[21:56] <dRegoR> hey ppl
[21:56] <Boohbah> s/z/x/   lol
[21:56] <CydeWeys> So I should download the AMD64 ISO?  Just making usre.
[21:56] <BCM43> KOJV: you still there?
[21:56] <BCM43> !hi | dRegoR
[21:56] <Cobra_Fast> well my Xorg crashes while desktop use
[21:56] <Armada> boohbah: lol, you mean X server, well when you're screen locked up you're X server crashed XD
[21:56] <Boohbah> !abuse | BCM43
[21:56] <kohnrad1982> Im having problems with my internet browser being very sluggish after upgrading to 8.04.  This happens in firefox 3, firefox 2, and opera.  While scrolling down a page, it goes very slowly and sometimes will grey out.  Any ideas?
[21:56] <Cobra_Fast> its running fine for two or three hours
[21:56] <gribiii> CydeWeys: When I installed 64bit linux ond my Intel Core 2 Duo T7500 I used the amd64
[21:56] <Cobra_Fast> then freezes
[21:57] <Boohbah> BCM43: :-)
[21:57] <CydeWeys> gribiii: All right, thanks, that's what I wanted to know.
[21:57] <BCM43> Boohbah: ???
[21:57] <gribiii> no problem
[21:57] <m13> CydeWeys: u got 4gb RAM or more *
[21:57] <Cobra_Fast> no, im not using an opengl-screensaver
[21:57] <shane__> Okay now whats the best software to burn .AVI to a dvd?
[21:57] <Cobra_Fast> im not using any screensaver
[21:57] <shane__> for playback in most dvd player
[21:57] <Crazzyt9> hello :)
[21:57] <stefg> Cobra_Fast: so the art of putting the question would be like: "I've got a Supergraphx ABC 1000 card running ubuntu Itchy, my xorg.conf is pasted at <pastebin-link> . I'm experiencing random crashes, have inspected the logs and searched google, but i still found no answer. i tried <forum post 1> and <forum post 2 >, didn't help. What can i do do to diagnose the problem" :)
[21:58] <BCM43> Boohbah: what was that for?
[21:58] <Armada> gribiii: There's only one 64-bit linux and that is specificly noted to be 64-bit AMD AND Intel
[21:58] <dRegoR> hi!
[21:58] <Armada> *ubtunu
[21:58] <Cobra_Fast> okay stefg, ill try
[21:58] <BCM43> stefg: im submiting that to ubuttu
[21:58] <gribiii> Armada: Yes and that's the amd64
[21:58] <Boohbah> BCM43: i'm just hassling you about your bot-happiness, don't worry about it
[21:58] <Armada> *ubuntu
[21:58] <gribiii> *ubuntu :D
[21:59] <arfarf> upped to 8.04, what happened to the option to change mouse pointers?
[21:59] <Pxrbot> hi, im trying to install Beryl through the intructions here http://onlyubuntu.blogspot.com/2007/03/how-to-install-beryl-with-latest-nvidia.html but its hanging on the last part of the sources section :S
[21:59] <Armada> gribiii: then those amd64 packages work on intel too?
[21:59] <BCM43> Boohbah: what does that have to do with the peopel here bing volunteers?
[21:59] <Boohbah> BCM43: the !abuse trigger was not what i expected
[21:59] <gribiii> Armada: Yes, they wrote on the page that it is for amd64 and Intels EMT64
[21:59] <gribiii> !amd64
[21:59] <bczippy> newish linux user with fstab question...any takers?
[21:59] <CyberCod> Can anyone help me set up the tap0 bridging interface?
[21:59] <CydeWeys> m13: Not at the present, but it's a future possibility, yes.
[21:59] <Boohbah> bczippy: sure!
[21:59] <echo_mirage> how to set the startup location of the terminal centered on screen?
[22:00] <kohnrad1982> I'm having problems with my Internet browser being very sluggish after upgrading to 8.04.  This happens in firefox 3, firefox 2, and opera.  While scrolling down a page, it goes very slowly and sometimes will grey out.  Any ideas?
[22:00] <BCM43> Boohbah: ah, i thought you were getting mad at me for asking if KOJV was still here, i was helping him.
[22:00] <Armada> gribiii: I mean the packages that specificly note for AMD64 in the description
[22:00] <shane__> What is good software to burn AVI to DVD player compliant disc
[22:00] <Boohbah> CyberCod: i tried that but gave up... you're doing this for virtualbox host net interface, i assume?
[22:00] <CyberCod> yeah
[22:00] <Boohbah> BCM43: no, no, i am not mad
[22:00] <gribiii> Armada: Yes I think they should work
[22:00] <BCM43> Boohbah: i think you mean !bot abuse
[22:00] <Slart> shane__: try Devede
[22:00] <gribiii> Armada: Do you have an example?
[22:00] <Armada> gribiii: like libc6-amd64
[22:01] <Cobra_Fast> Im using my ATi Radeon 9550 since i have this computer. it has run fine with all distributions of linux, and my favourite is ubuntu. But since 7.04 and upwards im getting more and more Xorg crashes per day. First i though, "probably some random error, it wont happen again" nowadays im having up to five crashes per day, something is going wrong. I did not find anything in any logs. And there are no websites considering this problem.
[22:01] <m13> CydeWeys: if u plan on 4gb or more , then go 64
[22:01] <Cobra_Fast> this way, stefg ?
[22:01] <CyberCod> Boohbah: did you find another way to do it? or did you just throw up your hands?
[22:01] <Boohbah> CyberCod: i just went with NAT instead, much easier. do you need to use host interface for a specific reason, like running a server on the guest OS?
[22:01] <bczippy> BoohBah: i have 3 partitions...ext3 (ubuntu), swap ,ext3 (backtrack)..however my fstab only shows sda1, sda2, and scd0
[22:01] <LeChacal> i am backing up my files to do a clean install i have all of my home folder, i cannt think of anything else i need to grab anyone have any thing i missed?
[22:01] <gribiii> Armada: I didn't remind me but when I installed my amd64 bit again I'll say you if it works
[22:01] <CydeWeys> m13: Well I'm also interested in doing 64-bit development, so that's really the primary thing driving my choice.
[22:01] <Armada> 64bit shared library for ->AMD64<-
[22:01] <CyberCod> Boohbah: exactly.  apache server on guest OS (Jeos)
[22:02] <stefg> Cobra_Fast: right :) ... so your problem is likely to be the ati driver. Now comes the forum searching part 1 :-)
[22:02] <FireFlyFan> Hello, I have been looking for a program like Finale *(music writing and transposition), looking in the supplied list of programs I could not find anything, does any one have a suggest of what I could ues?
[22:02] <BCM43> Boohbah:  msg ubuttu  the command "prayer"
[22:02] <Slart> LeChacal: /etc can sometimes be nice to have.. if you've made modifications you want to keep
[22:02] <m13> CydeWeys: go for it then ;)
[22:02] <Crazzyt9> I'm trying to install ubuntu I'm using Ubuntu 8.04 LTS Desktop Edition - Supported to 2011 which i downloaded and burned i tried loading into the live cd and it says that it cand find x server or something about that and it can't continue until it's configured can anyone explain to me what this means and how to configure it please :)
[22:02] <CyberCod> Boohbah: I need to share out a folder via samba from within the guest
[22:02] <Armada> gribiii: tell CydeWeys, he asked, I run 32-bit
[22:02] <Cobra_Fast> but how do you explain that the crashes are getting more often with the time? like yesterday one crash, today two, tomorrow three
[22:03] <gribiii> Armada: I first will try it out for myself ;)
[22:03] <Boohbah> CyberCod: is it possible to use the shared folders feature to achieve what you need?
[22:03] <Steve-cal> majikins: I have to go now, but I may be around in an hour or so. Good luck with your wireless, and maybe someone else can help you in the meantime if you need it.
[22:03] <shane__> Slart: Thanks i installed it an im going to give it a try
[22:03] <scifiguy951> what is a good program for ubuntu that you can dl music with?? something like limewire but not limewire any suggestions???
[22:03] <Armada> gribiii: comaptibility with older apps in ubtunu is bad as it is :P
[22:03] <Armada> *ubuntu XD
[22:03] <Armada> godammit too many u's
[22:03] <LeChacal> Slart: i grabbed a couple of files that i change in there now also thank you
[22:03] <FireFlyFan> scifiguy951: azures, and a torrent site
[22:03] <dcordes> why is synce so damn complicated to setup? I think this is something which device one touch setup. There is not even synce-gnome
[22:03] <majikins> Steve-cal: tank you for your help!
[22:03] <gribiii> Armada: what you mean with this sentence?
[22:03] <scifiguy951> ok
[22:03] <Boohbah> bczippy: so you need to manually add a line for the missing partition?
[22:03] <scifiguy951> thnxc
[22:03] <Boohbah> !fstab
[22:03] <majikins> Steve-cal: I'm sure I'll come right
[22:04] <Armada> gribiii: what sentence?
[22:04] <stefg> Cobra_Fast: http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/ubuntu-63/ati-radeon-9550-ubuntu-feisty-fawn-590133/ would be a helpful link provided by google

[22:04] <CyberCod> Boohbah: I wish, but I'm developing it to reside on Win2003 server at the office.  I may have to do this part of it after it is installed there.  I know I know... I tried to get them to go for a full install but they're too entrenched.  I figured a little linux in a vm is better than none
[22:04] <Boohbah> FireFlyFan: musical transposition?
[22:04] <Slart> frankie_: sudo apt-get install xchat
[22:04] <FireFlyFan> boohbah" yeah such as Finale for windows
[22:05] <BCM43> frankie_: sudo aptitude install xchat
[22:05] <Slart> frankie_: or use "Add/Remove program".. or use synaptic
[22:05] <amrik> aptitude is bettar than apt-get
[22:05] <Hammer89> anyone know if this is something I should actually be concerned about? http://pastebin.com/f21abe60b
[22:05] <CyberCod> I want them to be able to edit the webpages from any workstation on the network
[22:05] <Boohbah> FireFlyFan: rosegarden is an interesting midi sequencer that has sheet music display... it might do that
[22:05] <Armada> gribiii: dependency hell
[22:05] <Slart> amrik: for something simple like xchat I don't think aptitude makes any difference.. or?
[22:05] <FireFlyFan> boohbah: I am not actually playing the music rather wrighting it in from different keys and transposing it to my own.
[22:05] <Cobra_Fast> well, this is about the fglrx driver, but i am using the "radeon" driver, sorry, i forgot to tell
[22:05] <Boohbah> FireFlyFan: ahhh, check out lilypond
[22:05] <FireFlyFan> boohbah: okay thanks.,
[22:06] <amrik> Slart: I think the dependencies resolve better, and when he wants to remove a package it will take care of removing unused dependencies
[22:06] <Cobra_Fast> i just read something about DRI !?
[22:06] <frankie_> being so new at something like linux really sucks :p
[22:06] <Slart> amrik: please tell me you've got something more solid than "aptitude is better with dependencies".. I've never had any dependency problems using apt-get
[22:06] <Boohbah> FireFlyFan: more help in #ubuntu-studio
[22:06] <gribiii> gn8
[22:06] <Boohbah> frankie_: no, it's fun to learn!
[22:06] <Slart> amrik: apt-get removes unused dependencies too
[22:06] <neutralstorm> hi all
[22:06] <BCM43> !hi | neutralstorm
[22:07] <amrik> Slart: I dont know about that. For example if you install something that requires a lib, and then you remove it with apt-get I dont think the lib goes away
[22:07] <Cobra_Fast> should i try to use the proprietary ati-driver?
[22:07] <frankie_> learning is the easy part, its the first few steps that are rough.
[22:07] <Slart> amrik: not autoamgically.. it tells you "these packages are not needed anymore.. type apt-get autoremove to remove them"
[22:07] <Boohbah> Heil! Willkommen auf #ubuntu!
[22:07] <BCM43> frankie_: mess it up a lot once, it will be all down hill form there
[22:07] <BCM43> !ne
[22:08] <BCM43> !de
[22:08] <frankie_> LOL
[22:08] <Cobra_Fast> well by
[22:08] <Cobra_Fast> e
[22:08] <BCM43> Boohbah: hey, i just saw who said that.
[22:09] <unr3a1> hey all
[22:09] <BCM43> unr3a1: hi
[22:09] <amrik> Slart: also aptitude can do more than install and remove packages. you can search for them and get info as well. you would have to use apt-cache otherwise; its kind of nice to have a single tool to do package management
[22:09] <frankie_> how can i get ethereal/wireshark onto ubuntu?
[22:09] <unr3a1> does anyone know a good app to program in flash?
[22:09] <tyberion> which filemanager besides nautilus/thunar is good for the use with fluxbox?
[22:10] <Slart> amrik: oh.. come on.. now you're scraping the bottom =)
[22:10] <shane__> Slart: PAL or NTSC for DVD player?
[22:10] <Slart> shane__: depends on where you live..
[22:10] <BCM43> !offtopic | Slart amrik
[22:11] <Slart> BCM43: yea yea.. it was almost on topic.. so close =)
[22:11] <johey> Is there a better tool than hdparm for setting and reading hard drive statistics for SATA?
[22:11] <amrik> BCM43: lol just barely offtopic
[22:11] <ag3r> spain channel?
[22:11] <shane__> Slart: Canada
[22:11] <BCM43> !es
[22:11] <johey> Hdparm sais like "HDIO_GET_UNMASKINTR failed: Inappropriate ioctl for device"
[22:11] <tyberion> are there any good filemanagers besides thunar/nautilus, for fluxbox?
[22:11] <Slart> shane__: hmm.. the US uses NTSC.. Europe uses PAL, mostly
[22:11] <frankie_> how can i get ethereal/wireshark onto ubuntu?
[22:12] <amrik> tyberion: I don't know if I'm mistaken or not, but isn't fluxbox just a window manager? why would it include a file manager as well?
[22:12] <Boohbah> frankie_: sudo apt-get install wireshark
[22:12] <shane__> Slart: Good thing i asked, the default is set to PAL, im going to try NTSC
[22:12] <Slart> shane__: here's a nice page.. http://www.high-techproductions.com/pal,ntsc.htm . Seems like NTSC is the way to go
[22:12] <tyberion> amrik: yeah it is... but when I launch nautilus.. it starts adding my gnome theme, wallpaper and so on, so I tried thunar, its ok.. but arent there any other ones?
[22:12] <kkerwin> Hi. What is the IRC client that comes on Ubuntu Live CD's?
[22:12] <icewaterman> anyone running ubuntu with a vanilla kernel?
[22:12] <Slart> johey: are you using hdparm on a SATA drive?
[22:12] <Boohbah> kkerwin: xchat?
[22:13] <frankie_> ah, thank you boohbah
[22:13] <johey> Slart: Yeah. You know a better option?
[22:13] <kkerwin> Boohbah: Thank you.
[22:13] <Boohbah> frankie_: welcome
[22:13] <Boohbah> frankie_: see, it's fun :-)
[22:13] <amenado> icewaterman-> i have chocolate kernel
[22:13] <icewaterman> amenado: funny
[22:13] <amrik> tyberion: I'm guessing the konqueror might have the same issue as nautilus
[22:13] <bczippy> !fsab
[22:13] <bczippy> !fstab
[22:13] <Boohbah> amenado: nice :-)
[22:13] <amenado> icewaterman-> what do you mean be vanilla kernel?
[22:13] <tyberion> amrik: konqueror is filemanager in kde?
[22:14] <frankie_> it is now, earlier ubuntu stubbornly refused to feel the ethernet plug i had shoved up it's digital ass.
[22:14] <BCM43> amenado: that is a little off topic. try #ubuntu-offtopic
[22:14] <icewaterman> amenado: kernel without patches. my problem is that almost all works, but i cannot switch back from x11 to console (splash is working fine though), just cannot login
[22:14] <amrik> tyberion: yes. you could look into "rox". found it while googling http://www.tuxmagazine.com/node/1000191
[22:14] <Boohbah> amenado: a vanilla kernel is directly from kernel.org, with no patches applied by distributors
[22:14] <DIL> amenado: i have the lieutenant kernel
[22:14] <Slart> johey: from the man page hdparm  provides  a command line interface to various kernel interfaces supported by the Linux SATA/PATA/SAS "libata" subsystem
[22:14] <jansen> hi.. when i open synaptic it says: E: dpkg was interrupted, you must manually run 'dpkg --configure -a' to correct the problem.
[22:14] <icewaterman> vanilla kernel= kernel from kernel.org
[22:15] <Boohbah> icewaterman: what version?
[22:15] <icewaterman> Boohbah: <IP_ADDRESS>
[22:15] <icewaterman> on hardy
[22:15] <Slart> johey: I don't think Ubuntu uses libata anymore.. so it doesn't work out of the box
[22:15] <stefg> jansen: so what keeps you from doing just that ?
[22:15] <Boohbah> icewaterman: often, vanilla kernels are unstable
[22:15] <frankie_> what do i do when the terminal has finished the request?
[22:15] <amenado> icewaterman-> that dont seem right, you can not login via a console? like if you go ctrl+alt+f1 ?
[22:15] <amrik> icewaterman: I'm actually running kernel.org <IP_ADDRESS> right now, are you talking about switching vterms?
[22:15] <jansen> when i do that it goes:
[22:15] <Slart> johey: there was a sdparm utility for SATA drives.. but it didn't have all the bells and whistles of hdparm
[22:16] <johey> Slart: Ah ok. I just want to check so the disk parameters looks fine.
[22:16] <icewaterman> amrik: switching from x11 back to console
[22:16] <matija> how can I change number of virtual desktops from 2 to 4 ?? I'm running kubuntu and I just installed compiz and its running nice.
[22:16] <MvG> My notebook with hardy keeps the hdd busy during boot. Any idea how I can find out what it is doing? Splash is already disabled, the root filesystem check was just completed, and now it hangs. What can I do?
[22:16] <Boohbah> icewaterman: browse lkml for any changes in the console driver for that version...
[22:16] <amrik> icewaterman: are you trying to do ctrl+alt+f1?
[22:16] <icewaterman> amenado: cant
[22:16] <frankie_> boohbah : what do i do after it got the install for wireshark?
[22:16] <Boohbah> icewaterman: or try another kernel
[22:16] <Slart> johey: but do a google for hdparm sata  and see what you find.. there's bound to be some info out there
[22:16] <tempest> can anyone try to help me to get my logout to work correctly.  when I logout it just goes to a black screen
[22:16] <Boohbah> frankie_: type 'wireshark' in the terminal, or maybe you can find it in the menu
[22:16] <nokian95> hey guys
[22:16] <icewaterman> amrik: yes, and i only get a fancy background, no console
[22:17] <jansen> oh.. i wasnt using sudo =[[
[22:17] <pist0l-fish> hi there. For some reason I can only select resolutions equal to or smaller than 640x480 with my laptop (which was running 1280x800 before my last boot). I can run glxgears so it's not a problem with my graphics card. Can anyone help?
[22:17] <amrik> icewaterman: a fancy background? you mean like the background you had from X?
[22:17] <stefg> jansen: cluebat time ! :)
[22:17] <Boohbah> frankie_: probably 'sudo wireshark' or 'gksu wireshark'
[22:17] <johey> Slart: Yeah, I've done some googling... Nothing much found there. :/ But thanks anyway! I'll take a look at sdparm.
[22:17] <icewaterman> Boohbah: i tried to compile the ubuntu kernel and the corresponding modules, but failed to compile the ubuntu-modules stuff, so i chose the newer kernel from kernel.org
[22:17] <icewaterman> amrik: yes,but with a lot of noise in it
[22:18] <amrik> icewaterman: are you by chance using the nvidia binary driver?
[22:18] <Boohbah> icewaterman: do you need a specific feature not offered in the ubuntu kernel, or what?
[22:18] <MvG> pist0l-fish: I guess I'd try tweaking the modelines in the xorg.config, but that's a not very ubuntu-like way and requires quite a lot of work.
[22:18] <frankie_> cool! now is there a way to put a shortcut on the desktop?
[22:18] <icewaterman> amrik: nope, free radeon driver
[22:18] <amenado> icewaterman-> can you not kill X via ctrl+shift(alt?)+backspace ?
[22:18] <pist0l-fish> MvG: good thinking. Sorry, I've configured X before but I seem to be terribly good at forgetting obscure conventions
[22:18] <Slart> johey: here's a little info.. it mentions sdparm too , http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/linux-hardware-18/sata-harddisk-and-the-hdparm-command-585480/
[22:18] <icewaterman> Boohbah: well the ubuntu kernel with its default config is kinda crap - too much debug and dangerous options, no nx-bit etc.
[22:18] <johey> Slart: Thans alot!
[22:19] <icewaterman> amenado: i probably can, but i'm afraid i will not be able to login anymore and would have to reboot
[22:19] <Boohbah> frankie_: did you try and find it in the GNOME menu? if so you can drag it to the desktop
[22:19] <frankie_> yeah, wasn't there. i had to sudo it
[22:19] <Boohbah> icewaterman: so you've compiled a kernel before...
[22:19] <amrik> icewaterman: if you tried to stop gdm via /etc/init.d/gdm stop, can you drop down to a console then?
[22:19] <frankie_> nevermind, it needed to launch before it appeared
[22:19] <smileboot> anyone know why a second user on my ubuntu install cant connect to wireless?
[22:20] <Boohbah> smileboot: groups
[22:20] <embrik> how do I findout if my soundcard is ok?
[22:20] <amenado> icewaterman-> or if you have ssh installed, can you try to login via ssh?
[22:20] <smileboot> or why they cant hibernate the laptop either
[22:20] <Boohbah> smileboot: check that both users are in the same groups
[22:20] <Slart> smileboot: there might be a wifi group he/she has to be in
[22:20] <icewaterman> amenado: dunno, no sshd installed and i do not have another box with a monitor right now
[22:20] <Boohbah> embrik: cat /dev/urandom > /dev/dsp
[22:20] <icewaterman> i'll try to kill x11 and see what happens
[22:20] <amenado> smileboot-> only one user shoud be able to fiddle with network stuff (ie root)...not bunch of users..
[22:20] <microwaver> is the location of the splashscreen in ubuntu etc/usplash.conf ? (the config file) ?
[22:20] <stefg> smileboot: he  might be not in the right group to use it (probably he's 'Desktop' not 'Admin' so hasnt got the rights to use ndiswrapper)
[22:21] <Boohbah> icewaterman: you did try alt+f1 ?
[22:21] <smileboot> amenado i agree but for a laptop it should be able to connect to wifi
[22:21] <zepherin> Hello, How do I rename a NTFS drive name?
[22:21] <frankie_> boohbah: when i started wireshark, it warned me about using the name "root" (the warning was something along those lines) what do i do about that?
[22:21] <Boohbah> icewaterman: so the problem again is you can't switch from X to console?
[22:22] <linkinxp> how  do i reset my audio drivers?????
[22:22] <amenado> smileboot-> a user has still go to become root priviledge..so add the 2nd user to sudoers
[22:22] <embrik> Boohbah, cat /dev/urandom > /dev/dsp made a lot of noice - so sound out seems to be ok, what about record - how do I do that?
[22:22] <Slart> zepherin: see if there isn't something like a ntfs-setlabel program..
[22:22] <linkinxp> i have no sound!!! and sudo alsa foce-reload doesnt work!! HELP!!!!!
[22:22] <icewaterman> Boohbah: tried that, but i only get a screwed version of my desktop background, no console
[22:22] <smileboot> amenado: ok ill give that a try
[22:22] <icewaterman> Boohbah: if i kill x11 same thing happens
[22:22] <icewaterman> Boohbah: this only happens when i use usplash btw.
[22:23] <lgc> Flannel, you there?
[22:23] <thehurley> hello, i've just installed ubuntu on a laptop and my gfx card isn't being detected, a generic device name is being used in xorg.conf.  it seems that fglrx is not being used and neither are any offical drivers from ATI.  Can someone advise how to get fglrx working?
[22:23] <microwaver> is the location of the splashscreen in ubuntu etc/usplash.conf ? (the config file) ?
[22:23] <Boohbah> embrik: record? you mean line-in or microphone input?
[22:23] <konner> How do i exit the KDE x-server
[22:23] <icewaterman> if i do not use usplash it works (without framebuffer console of course)
[22:23] <amenado> konner-> go to single user mode
[22:23] <konner> How?
[22:23] <icewaterman> Boohbah: i'll kill gdm, and see what happens, probably have to reboot though
[22:23] <Boohbah> icewaterman: well thanks for letting me know....
[22:23] <stefg> thehurley: what does <lspci | grep VGA> return ?
[22:23] <Slart> !info ntfsprogs | zepherin: in here is a ntfslabel program,
[22:24] <Boohbah> icewaterman: OF COURSE it is usplash ;)
[22:24] <amenado> konner-> telinit 1   think..
[22:24] <amenado> konner off course you have to sudo
[22:24] <embrik> Boohbah, yes, but wait a second, it may be the programme i'm using which causes me trouble (Audacity)
[22:24] <thehurley> stefg, it returns the correct device name for my graphics card
[22:25] <embrik> by the way, how do I avtivate clipboard?
[22:25] <Boohbah> embrik: so you're trying to record sound? have you checked out jack daemon and realtime kernel?
[22:25] <thehurley> stefg, this is not referenced anywhere in xorg.conf
[22:25] <thehurley> !paste
[22:25] <embrik> Boohbah, no, how do I do that?
[22:25] <zepherin> I'm checking
[22:25] <Jaffarkelshac> !webcam
[22:25] <Boohbah> embrik: /join #ubuntustudio
[22:25] <scifiguy951> is there a way to get into comps on my LAN??
[22:25] <embrik> Boohbah, ok, tahnks :-)
[22:25] <javb> after upgrading to the lastest version of ubuntu, now, when i boot my projector (datashow) says out of range . . . any ideas ? ?
[22:26] <zepherin> says !info event not found
[22:26] <stefg> thehurley: as you might have noticed you avoided to state what graphc card that is.... most of us  aren't  psychic readers in here :)
[22:26] <icewaterman> Boohbah: ok, it seems i can even login when pressing ctrl+alt+f1 but the problem is, i have to type blind
[22:26] <t1n0m3n> scifiguy951: Yes, just open up the side and climb right in?
[22:26] <zepherin> there we go thanks a lot
[22:26] <scifiguy951> LOL!! i am serious!!
[22:26] <icewaterman> which means it looks like the displaying gets screwed
[22:26] <scifiguy951> tho
[22:26] <thehurley> stefg, im in the middle of using pastebin
[22:26] <thehurley> give a man a second or two
[22:26] <thehurley> :)
[22:26] <Boohbah> icewaterman: well the root of your problem is usplash
[22:27] <scifiguy951> how do i "sniff" for ips on my LAN??
[22:27] <javb> after upgrading to the lastest version of ubuntu, now, when i boot my projector (datashow) says out of range . . . any ideas ? ?
[22:27] <javb> its weird, maybe NVIDIA?
[22:27] <t1n0m3n> scifiguy951: Install wireshark
[22:27] <smileboot> ok yeah the user is a member of the admin group and admin group is a sudoer  yet no wireless access

[22:33] <justdave> so I need to connect to a Windows share that requires a password from my Ubuntu box...  however, the server in question also has anonymously-accessible shares on it.

How do I connect with a username?

[22:35] <Boohbah> scifiguy951: sudo apt-get install wireshark
[22:35] <Boohbah> scifiguy951: if you would like to inspect in detail all of the network packets in all protocols on any network interfaces
[22:36] <amenado> smileboot-> are you logged on as the 2nd user?
[22:36] <Boohbah> scifiguy951: if you need to do that sort of thing...
[22:36] <accident> wireshark simply shows you everything your computer sees.
[22:36] <smileboot> amenado: not at the moment no
[22:36] <smileboot> but i can
[22:36] <scifiguy951> so i can browse files on a comp on my LAN?
[22:36] <Ovispain> anyone can help? How to make my 2 hdds mount everytime I enter Ubuntu?
[22:36] <amenado> smileboot-> please do and then attempt the access you require
[22:36] <stefg> !fstab | Ovispain
[22:36] <krissam> Can anyone tell me how to test if my wireless drivers are installed correctly? because as far as i've read, the drivers should be in the kernel, but i cant seem to get the wireless to work :/
[22:36] <Boohbah> scifiguy951: if you don't know why you need it, then you don't need it :-)
[22:37] <amenado> krissam-> it can be loaded, but may still not work
[22:37] <scifiguy951> i want to know how to access a comp on my LAN so i can do what i want on it from my comp
[22:37] <scifiguy951> ???
[22:37] <Nyad> !grub-reinstall
[22:37] <smileboot> sadly if i do that now amenado the wireless will work since this account has been logged in  it only dosent work when the user logs in from an off state
[22:37] <Nyad> !grub
[22:37] <krissam> amenado:  any idea about what i might do to make it work :)?
[22:37] <smileboot> hibernate still wont work tho
[22:38] <Boohbah> scifiguy951: well what OS is your server running?
[22:38] <accident> wireshark won't really help with that...
[22:38] <icewaterman> Boohbah: well, i kinda need it because with usplash i can use a modification to cryptsetup for fulldisk encryption to only ask for 1 password and not for every partition the same password again
[22:38] <anabolix> what is the equivalent of (windows: alt+f4) in ubuntu?
[22:38] <amenado> krissam-> which chip does your wifi nic card have?
[22:38] <icewaterman> thats why i need usplash
[22:38] <scifiguy951> i dont have a server the comps are connected thru router
[22:38] <Boohbah> icewaterman: find a kernel that has better usplash support
[22:39] <anabolix> what is the equivalent of (windows: alt+f4) in ubuntu?
[22:39] <AlexRADL> Hello everyone.    To my understanding I have to "compile" .tar.gz files in order to install them.  Can someone point me to a good tutorial on installing those types of files?  Thanks!
[22:39] <Boohbah> anabolix: what does alt+f4 do in windows?
[22:39] <accident> closes selected window
[22:39] <krissam> amenado:  Intel 4965 AGN
[22:39] <anabolix> yea
[22:39] <icewaterman> Boohbah: the ubuntu kernel compiles fine, even with modifications, but i cannot compile all the modules for it because it compiles them only for the generic kernel. and custom kernel gets a differnt name
[22:39] <scifiguy951> ?
[22:39] <icewaterman> otherwise i'd not be stuck with another kernel.
[22:39] <t1n0m3n> Sounds like someone needs to look up scifiguy's IP and report him to the IP's ARIN contact to me.
[22:39] <Boohbah> AlexRADL: what sort of tar file do you have? most software in ubuntu is already packaged for you, don't bother with tar files
[22:39] <soneil> alexbobp: it sounds like you're looking for package 'bash-completion'; you'll also want to look at /etc/bash_completion if you have it
[22:39] <accident> LOL
[22:40] <amenado> krissam-> google around for the correct driver?
[22:40] <Assid> hey
[22:40] <TeslaTony> anabolix: In Gnome it's the same. For KDE it's something else
[22:40] <anabolix> boohbah: it closes a selected window or program automatically its kinda like going to the task manager in windows and ending a programs task or forcing it to quite
[22:40] <Assid> im trying to load up openvz for ubuntu
[22:40] <smileboot> amenado:  sadly if i do that now the wireless will work since this account has been logged in  it only dosent work when the user logs in from an off state
[22:40] <amenado> anabolix-> try alt+f4
[22:40] <Assid> but it says the kernel has a bug
[22:40] <Assid> whats PPA?
[22:40] <al_> i am having multiple problems since i upgraded to hardy heron. the computer function normally for an hour...and then there is no sound, most programs won't open, or just a window pops up. i also have problems at that stage with trying to shut down or restart the computer, since the menu won't apper, so i have to unplug the computer and restart liek that
[22:40] <AlexRADL> Boohbah: I wanted to install xmms, I couldn't find it in the packaged applications, so I decided to try and download it.  It is a .tar.gz file.  Am I missing something, is it in the packaged applications?
[22:40] <al_> any thoughts ?
[22:40] <WhoNeedszzz> Hey guys, I just switched to the OSS driver and now audacity won't open up. It gives me this error: audacity: src/hostapi/alsa/pa_linux_alsa.c:764: BuildDeviceList: Assertion `snd_config' failed.
[22:41] <SoulChild> Hi all, can someone give me an good graphical alternative to network-manager ??? I am using enlightenment as Desktop.
[22:41] <amenado> smileboot-> a user have to be logged in, and then sudo to have access to the network..
[22:41] <Fujisan> Hello
[22:41] <Boohbah> icewaterman: how exactly are you compiling your kernel and modules?
[22:41] <al_> my computer also heats up constantly
[22:41] <Fujisan> can i get some help please how do i apply a gtk theme on  xchat on ubuntu?
[22:41] <krissam> amenado:  that's what i figured i'd do if i could confirm that the drivers weren't installed but so far i'm not sure if i'm just noobing around with the answer right infront of me but :(
[22:41] <Assid> al_: ever since the new ubuntu?
[22:41] <amenado> smileboot-> maybe i dont follow --  when the user logged in from off state? meaning?
[22:41] <al_> i've been looking through the logs, and there seems to be a problem with the audio diver
[22:41] <Xsploit> hey guys, anyone know how i would get divx working on ubuntu? (on firefox)
[22:42] <NoSynaptics> the last version of ubuntu uses customized or "almost empty" xorg.conf files ?
[22:42] <Boohbah> AlexRADL: xmms has a different name now... i forget it
[22:42] <Boohbah> anyone know what xmms is called now?
[22:42] <MrObvious> Fujisan: Just go to System -> Properties -> Appearance and go to the Themes tab and drag your tar.gz theme to there and select it.
[22:42] <al_> Assid: yes, since i updated to hardy haren
[22:42] <Boohbah> audacious?
[22:42] <SoulChild> Boohbah, i couldn't find it too
[22:42] <Boohbah> rhythmbox?
[22:42] <amenado> krissam-> to check  sudo lsmod | grep drivername
[22:42] <SoulChild> no it's not rythembox
[22:42] <icewaterman> Boohbah: like the howto from the wiki says. but it gives me a kernel named <IP_ADDRESS>-* no matter what i do. while the standard name is 2.6.24-17-generic right now
[22:42] <AlexRADL> Boohbah: Ok, I'll take a look at those.  Thanks for the help!
[22:42] <al_> Assid: after the last update, there is no background, just a black screen
[22:42] <Assid> al_: yeah.. dont blame yoụ. it acts the same way here
[22:42] <Boohbah> AlexRADL: i prefer amarok for a music player
[22:42] <lemarroy> \join #domus
[22:42] <Boohbah> AlexRADL: i mean xmms is outdated, are you sure you want to use it?
[22:43] <Assid> al_: atleast the heat part
[22:43] <smileboot> amenado: ahhh well yeah when user 2 logs in they have sudo ability but canot connect to wifi   if however user 1 logs in connects to wifi then switches to user 2   user 2 now has wireless (obviously)   both have the same rights and privileges as far as im aware
[22:43] <icewaterman> and compiling the ubuntu modules for any other kernel than a kernel named 2.6.24-17-* seems next to impossible
[22:43] <al_> any ideas ppl ?
[22:43] <MrObvious> AlexRADL: I use Amarok too.
[22:43] <NovaXeros> Isn't xmms still XMMS? But there's a 2 version somewhere too. I just use the standard audio programs and they all work without xmms stuff.
[22:43] <Boohbah> AlexRADL: welcome :)
[22:43] <embrik> how do I activate clipboard, the programme which stores the elements i have copied or cut?
[22:43] <SoulChild> is there any alternative for network-manager ?
[22:43] <Pici> Boohbah: xmms is still xmms, but xmms is no longer being developed.
[22:43] <BCM43> al_: can you log into text based?
[22:43] <Boohbah> Pici: i see, so audacious is a fork?
[22:43] <WhoNeedszzz> Hey guys, I just switched to the OSS driver and now audacity won't open up. It gives me this error: audacity: src/hostapi/alsa/pa_linux_alsa.c:764: BuildDeviceList: Assertion `snd_config' failed.
[22:43] <Pici> Boohbah: I believe so.
[22:43] <embrik> SoulChild, wlassistant?
[22:44] <al_> nope...but i'm not that good in command line, if that's what u mean
[22:44] <SoulChild> embrik, i ll try it, thanks
[22:44] <stefg> SoulChild: sudo vim /etc/network/interfaces :)
[22:44] <AlexRADL> Boohbah: Ok.  Well, what I am really looking for is a program like Winamp for ubuntu.  I used to run my radio show on winamp with a specific plug in and I am looking for a program to replace winamp.  So, can anyone recommend a program that I can stream my radio in?  Thanks for the welcome! :)
[22:44] <icanic> hi ppl
[22:44] <SoulChild> stefg,  :D
[22:44] <amenado> smileboot-> am not really following what you are trying to do, only one user should have access to the network stuff, can you imagine if user1 wants to connect to AP1 and user2 to AP2  ..you follow?
[22:44] <SoulChild> stefg, maybe your r right, i should configure it to my needs
[22:44] <seric>  /join #ubuntu-es
[22:45] <BCM43> al_: do you have any graphics?
[22:45] <icanic> can someone tell me is there any way to read HDD from mac os x on ubuntu? I mean, I can read it, but I can open the user directory, dont have permissions
[22:45] <amenado> SoulChild-> i read somewhere wicd, but i myself prefer the command line to vim interfaces file
[22:45] <icanic> how can I pass permissions?
[22:45] <al_> BCM43: yes, but no desktop
[22:45] <Xsploit> hey guys, anyone know how i would get divx working on ubuntu? (on firefox)
[22:45] <NovaXeros> Alex, does the shoutcast site not say the linux alternative for streaming?
[22:45] <BCM43> al_: you ran the update? did it freeze after it?
[22:46] <al_> BCM43: nope, all updates installed successfuly
[22:46] <BCM43> al_: sudo aptitude update
[22:46] <smileboot> amenado:  well this is a laptop so the need for either user to be able to connect to a wireless network after bootup is quite important  user 1 has it setup she it auto connects   ive tried setting up the same thing for user 2 but i cant even connect manually  just asks for the access point password over and over
[22:46] <WhoNeedszzz> Hey guys, I just switched to the OSS driver and now audacity won't open up. It gives me this error: audacity: src/hostapi/alsa/pa_linux_alsa.c:764: BuildDeviceList: Assertion `snd_config' failed.
[22:46] <Flare183> !ppc
[22:47] <AlexRADL> NovaXeros: It says XMMS is the linux alternative.  That's why I had the question about downloading XMMS.  Apparently it is outdated though :P
[22:47] <BCM43> smileboot: ubuntu has problems with WEP
[22:47] <al_> BCM43: aptitude sais eevrything updated
[22:47] <amenado> smileboot-> perhaps you were not clear, are the users 1 and 2 logged in to same laptop at same time?
[22:47] <BCM43> Flare183: was that for you or someone else? i can help you with a ppc.
[22:47] <icanic> can someone tell me is there any way to read HDD from mac os x on ubuntu? I mean, I can read it, but I cant open the user directory, dont have permissions
[22:47] <Flare183> BCM43: it was for someone
[22:47] <Xsploit> hey guys, anyone know how i would get divx working on ubuntu? (on firefox)
[22:47] <al_> BCM43: when i run a program, all i can see is the borders of the windows. nothing else
[22:47] <Flare183> icanic in fact
[22:47] <AlexRADL> Should I use something else (besides XMMS)?
[22:48] <BCM43> al_: press ctrl + alt + F1, and login, then run uname -a
[22:48] <NovaXeros> Ah yes, that's right. As much as xmms isn't under development anymore, I think it is still available for use, and still works okay. Have you tried it at all yet?
[22:48] <BCM43> Flare183: put | <username>
[22:48]  * Flare183 knew this already
[22:48] <NovaXeros> I mean, I can't be certain. I'm no linux expert. In fact, very much the opposite, but I'd like to offer as much assistance as I can.
[22:49] <grobda24> AlexRADL ... the newer ones like Amarok have functions to stream out whatever playlist you're playing.
[22:49] <matthew> hi guys, I'm having some really weird Xorg troubles
[22:49] <matthew> its literally repeatedly logging in
[22:49] <AlexRADL> Grobda24: Oh, ok.  I'll try Amarok out then.  Thanks for the help Nova.
[22:49] <NovaXeros> No problem Alex.
[22:49] <AlexRADL> So, are most of the applications that I will ever need already packaged?
[22:50] <maximilion> Didn't like Amarok at all.
[22:50] <matthew> I checked syslog and it says "failed to authenticate user"
[22:50] <BCM43> AlexRADL: yes
[22:50] <matthew> and repeated roughly 100 times
[22:50] <AlexRADL> BCM43: Ok, awesome.
[22:50] <embrik> plugins to watch webtv? firefox 3.0 beta, ubuntu hardy
[22:50] <matthew> has anyone heard of this behavior before?
[22:51] <DIL> possible hack attempt
[22:51] <Gin> any one knows what theme opensuse 11 beta 3 is using?
[22:51] <maximilion> Bloated, stuff running in background, can't make sense of my perfectly hierarchically ordered mp3 files (100s of 'Various Artist' and same name artists, and you need to right click the icon to REALLLLY close it, upon which it fades volume to zero before exiting, and then closing the file window where I dragged my mp3s from...
[22:51] <the_eraser> i want to know what driver a pci-device is using. Help me?
[22:51] <amenado> matthew-> yes, someone trying to login and failed
[22:51] <NovaXeros> Can I recommend updating firefox 3 beta in hardy to the release candidate? I had some stability issues with the defualt one that comes with Hardy, but updating to RC1 helped a lot.
[22:51] <Pici> Gin: You'd be better off asking the opensuse people.
[22:51] <embrik> I'm not able to watch webtv, can anyone tell me what plugins to install?
[22:51] <BCM43> the_eraser: lspci
[22:51] <maximilion> And it didn't have the standard nav keys out of the box. OK, /rant :)
[22:51] <al_> BCM43: i did that
[22:52] <Azhi_Dahaka> hi
[22:52] <amenado> embrik-> webtv? dont know, try miro
[22:52] <al_> BCM43: now what ?
[22:52] <BCM43> al_: what did it return?
[22:52] <maximilion> I liked XMMS, would have been it for me if the volume control actually allowed changing volume. Any ideas? :)
[22:52] <Azhi_Dahaka> where can i browse for linux-compatible webcams?
[22:52] <BCM43> !webcam | Azhi_Dahaka
[22:52] <al_> BCM43: the kernel version
[22:52] <smileboot> amenado: no not at the same time  well not usually hence why this is an issue id like user 2 to be able to bootup and use the laptop without user one having to login first just to connect to the wifi
[22:52] <the_eraser> BCM43: but it says nothing about drivers, right?
[22:52] <AlexRADL> I have a question about torrent programs.  I used uTorrent on windows, and someone recommended that I used Deluge on Linux.  Would that be the best alternative or would something like Transmission be better?
[22:52] <grobda24> NovaXeros .. I thought that beta was RC1 under a different name ! Why is it not updating it'self ?
[22:52] <BCM43> al_: i know, put what it said in the channel
[22:52] <amenado> I thought i can mount bind a directory to   partition mounted to /media/disk-1  and then the new files created will be at the new partition..but apparently not..like so..   mount --bind /vz  /media/disk-1; touch f1.txt;  but when i unmount the /bz from /media/disk-1  no files is in the partition
[22:53] <al_> BCM43: 2.6.24-17-generic #1 SMP
[22:53] <BCM43> the_eraser: drivers, oh, i guess not
[22:53] <shigutso> what happened with GKSU? it's not working anymore... the administrator menus' entries are not working also
[22:53] <the_eraser> BCM43: :/
[22:53] <BCM43> al_: ok, that is fine. updated correctly. your not getting errors anywhere?
[22:53] <amenado> smileboot-> check /etc/group  and match all the user1 group memberships then same with sudoers file
[22:53] <al_> BCM43: nope
[22:54] <DaveKong> Does anyone use KGS(kiseido go server) I got the restricted extensions package with java etc yet I still can't get the pages to load right...
[22:54] <NovaXeros> grobda24: I'm not sure. It might well be that it is, in fact, the same program, but when I installed a fresh Hardy, it always showed Firefox 3 Beta 5 in the title window, but now I've updated to RC1, that's gone, and it crashes a whole load less. Perhaps it was just my original installation that was buggered, but from what I saw, updating made a difference.
[22:54] <ArthurArchnix> AlexRADL:  I've just been reading a link about how deluge misuses ext3 filesystems and causes excessive file fragmentation.
[22:54] <maximilion> Any idea why XMMS volume knob won't change volume? Tried ALSA, OSS... The other players can do it.
[22:55] <BCM43> al_: are you on a seperate computer now?
[22:55] <AlexRADL> ArthurArchnix: Hmm, that's weird.  So, do you think Transimission would be the best alternative, or something else?
[22:55] <al_> BCM43: on the same one
[22:55] <ArthurArchnix> AlexRADL: I've just installed transmission and it's pretty ok. A lot of people swear by rtorrent & screen. Those are about the only two I'd use, but the girlfriend needs to use it too, so rtorrent is out. CoLI only.
[22:55] <rinaldi_> Hi, im trying to get epsxe to work but it needs libstdc++2.10-glibc2.2 but its not in the repos. where can I find it?
[22:55] <mepsipax> How do I use Quicktime in firefox in linux?
[22:55] <BCM43> al_: run sudo shutdown now, then choose fix broken packages, then restart
[22:55] <ejer> anyone got a wintv-hvr950 (usb tv tuner) working?
[22:56] <BCM43> al_: sudo shutdown now will not shut it down
[22:56] <AlexRADL> ArthurArchnix: Ok, I'll check out rtorrent.  Thanks.
[22:56] <ubuntuisloved> http://pastebin.org/39310 anyone know how to handle unmounting a sshfs mount which refuses to umount
[22:56] <NovaXeros> rinaldi_: have you activated the Universe and Multiverse repos?
[22:56] <rinaldi_> NovaXeros: yes
[22:56] <Bensawsome> omg ubuntu is being annoying
[22:57] <ArthurArchnix> AlexRADL: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=801737 scroll down to about 14 and read the rest. It's got some good links for you to go over
[22:57] <Boohbah> AlexRADL: ktorrent
[22:57] <AlexRADL> Ok, thanks guys.  I appreciate all the help.  I'm definitely glad I made the switch from windows :)
[22:57] <Sitherae> What happens if I have a restricted driver in use?
[22:58] <Boohbah> ArthurArchnix: you could use transmission-cli and screen
[22:58] <Desktop_> Hey, I have a problem. If somebody could help me that would be great. I finally got Ubuntu to recognize my wireless card by using ndiswrapper and the xp drivers for it. Everything seems to be in working order except when I try to connect to my network it does it's little "Trying to connect" thing but can never seem to get on.
[22:58] <rinaldi_> NovaXeros: it says it can't find it, where I know I installed it in gutsy...
[22:58] <Boohbah> Sitherae: then you are using a binary module which taints support from the kernel developers
[22:59] <NovaXeros> rinaldi: that file should be in the universe repo according to google. I would check myself, but for the next 20 or so mins, I'm stuck on a live CD whilst I repartition my hard drives.
[22:59] <Boohbah> Sitherae: errr taints the kernel, which the developers cannot support
[22:59] <amenado> ubuntuisloved-> can you try  fuser -ki /www/REMOTEMOUNT
[22:59] <shigutso> what happened with 'gksu'? the administrator menus' entries are not working and with the terminal it's not working also
[22:59] <Sitherae> Boohbah: Is a restricted driver like the one from the nvidia website?
[22:59] <Boohbah> Sitherae: the nvidia driver is a restricted driver, yes
[23:00] <KOJV> BCM43: Thanks for your help today!
[23:00] <Bensawsome> i got the live cd and tried to boot off it on my comp and it boot off it and i said run the os from the cd but not install it and it booted and did the screen with the orangeish thing that went back anf forth and then it came to a tan screen and all there was was the mousse and then it changed to a black background and i left it foer about an hour and it never did anything and all icould do was move the mouse -_-
[23:00] <AlexRADL> Ok, to my understanding there are certain "repos" that are used to download applications.  I can seem to find rtorrent or ktorrent in the "Applications" tap.  Is there anything I need to add?
[23:00] <Sitherae> Boohbah: Alright. Anyway I can get the message to go away? I don't really care :)
[23:00] <Boohbah> Sitherae: also, ndiswrapper drivers
[23:00] <AlexRADL> can't seem to find*
[23:00] <al_> BCM43: i did that. but the system couldn't boot again. i had to restart
[23:00] <NovaXeros> rinaldi: Once you've updated your sources.list file to include the multi and uni for your version of the distro, hardy/edgy/etc, make sure you update synaptics sources or your apt-get command line, then do apt-get install libstdc++2.10-glibc2.2
[23:00] <ubuntuisloved> amenado, perfection dude thanks
[23:00] <ejer> Bensawsome: try hitting CTRL_ALT_BACKSPACE
[23:00] <Bensawsome> ok
[23:00] <Bensawsome> ty
[23:00] <Boohbah> Sitherae: oh where is the message? i can't help since my ubuntu doesn't look like yours :)
[23:00] <al_> BCM43: it also told me there are some packages that are no longer needed
[23:00] <grobda24> Desktop_ ... from what I know about ndsiwrapper just because the hardware is recognised and the drivers load does not mean they actually do anything. If it's reported working it should be listed on the ndiswrapper wiki.
[23:01] <Bensawsome> had to restart comp so i try it later
[23:01] <Bensawsome> thanks
[23:01] <Sitherae> Boohbah: Its in the system tray on the right hand side
[23:01] <amenado> ubuntuisloved-> come back again anytime
[23:01] <Sitherae> Boobah: Has that little icon
[23:01] <sco01> Hi, Does anybody know if linux-restricted-modules-2.6.24-17-generic is supposed to be installed together with the 2.6.24-17-generic kernel when the -16 restricted was installed previously?
[23:01] <matthew> so has anyone had a problem where their X server just constantly kicks them back to the login window?
[23:01] <Boohbah> Sitherae: yeah i don't use gnome
[23:01] <Sitherae> Boohbah: Ahh.  ESD is enabled. Help!
[23:02] <Desktop_> Like, I can see the wireless networks around my house.  Whats the difference between the 17, 16, and 14 at start up?
[23:02] <matthew> I'm not pressing enter or anything, the gdm tries to authenticate, then fails, and tries again, and fails. By itself
[23:02] <Chousuke> alexbobp: I don't think you can do that, but you can do it manually with dpkg
[23:02] <Boohbah> Sitherae: those are different versions of the kernel
[23:02] <amenado> Desktop_-> dont use wep or wpa or wpa2 or any encryption and see if it works
[23:02] <maximilion> Boohbah, can you recommend a nice simple one like it but better?
[23:02] <grobda24> Desktop_ ... you could try #ndiswrapper , or, do they have a forum ?
[23:02] <Boohbah> Sitherae: best to use the latest if it works ok
[23:02] <Chousuke> alexbobp: note that doing it may break your system.
[23:03] <dhamma> how can i reinstall all of my kernel modules?  or better yet?  just the ones associated with alsa and my sound card?
[23:03] <Sitherae> Boobah: cool thanks
[23:03] <ubuntuisloved> amenado, since you seemed to know that last problem i've sometimes had applications in Java like Eclipse hang when VPN goes down and i tried kill -9 but it still hangs is there something else i could do to force an app to stop?
[23:03] <Desktop_> ok, I'll try turning off the encryption. One sec.
[23:03] <Boohbah> maximilion: what are your requirements? low memory usage? gui? command line?
[23:03] <alexbobp> Chousuke: wouldn't the worst case be breaking the package I'm installing with missing dependancies?
[23:03] <tyberion> Ive got a little question... Ive got a laptop with special key FN+F2 for pushing my volume up and down... and in gnome it worked since I first installed hardy... so now I wanna switch to fluxbox and need to know which app it is that makes my hotkeys for adjusting my volume possible.. could anyone plzzz take a look at: http://pastebin.org/39311 and tell me what app it is?????
[23:03] <Boohbah> maximilion: music library management?\
[23:03] <maximilion> Boohbah, "Like Winamp 3".. kinda... or FooBar2000 :)
[23:04] <Chousuke> alexbobp: It might confuse apt.
[23:04] <Slart> attig.. men du hade ändå råd med chokladkakor? =)
[23:04] <Chousuke> alexbobp: what package is it, though?
[23:04] <amenado> ubuntuisloved-> you tried kill -9  `pid of eclipse`  ?
[23:04] <Slart> doh..
[23:04] <Slart> my bad, sorry
[23:04] <maximilion> Boohbah, don't need management, I have a folder structure that works fine for me :)
[23:04] <Boohbah> maximilion: i haven't used foobar
[23:04] <NovaXeros> Oh, does anyone have any idea how to increase the number of virtual desktops so I have an actual 'cube' in Compiz?
[23:04] <Boohbah> maximilion: i guess xmms is the closest to winamp 3
[23:04] <NovaXeros> And also, if it's possible to run the  Usplash screen in 1280x800
[23:04] <DarthOrange> Hi, I followed the tutorial on how to enable DVD playback on the FAQ, but it still doesn't work in totem-xine
[23:04] <alexbobp> Chousuke: I want to install wine without installing libgphoto2-2, or install libgphoto2-2 without installing udev.
[23:04] <Slart> NovaXeros: in that compiz config settings manager thingy
[23:04] <Slart> !ccsm | NovaXeros
[23:05] <mysterioso> Is this the appropriate channel to ask a question about Deluge?
[23:05] <Chousuke> alexbobp: you... don't have udev installed?
[23:05] <ubuntuisloved> amenado, yes but eclipse was using files from /www/REMOTEMOUNT so i wonder if that had any impact? i know it was the reason it hung but shouldnt it still be able to kill with kill -9 PID
[23:05] <Boohbah> NovaXeros: i would guess usplash won't work at that resolution
[23:05] <Chousuke> alexbobp: or is it trying to dl udev from a non-ubuntu repository?
[23:05] <Sitherae> The new firefox is uglyh
[23:05] <alexbobp> Chousuke: It's on colinux.  All the stuff that interacts directly with hardware can't be installed.
[23:05] <Sitherae> ugly*
[23:05] <muramasa> Hi there. Is it possible to remove an update from update manager? I do not want to update a software, because there is a bug in that version, but I'm also tired of seeing the update notes all the time
[23:05] <cbgustav>  8-)
[23:05] <Chousuke> alexbobp: ah
[23:05] <maximilion> Boohbah, yeah, and there's a Winamp 3 alpha 1 for Linux, but... it feels like the volume control thing should be solvable
[23:05] <J-_> When trying to start bitlbee on my server(it's running dapper) I get a permission denied problem. "Can't read/write from/tp /var/lib/bitlbee/" Then, it says, "Fatal signal received: 2. That's probably a bug." What can I do to make it work?
[23:05] <tyberion> mmhh, no one :(?
[23:05] <NovaXeros> Alright, thanks very much. Will give it a bash when I get back onto my main installation.
[23:06] <aidan__> error 16: Inconsistent filesystem, what does this mean?
[23:06] <maximilion> imma make a sandwich, back in 5
[23:06] <Chousuke> alexbobp: download the libgphoto package manually.
[23:06] <alexbobp> or alternately, "psh, udev is for wimps."
  But I do not know how, and it is NOT in the add remove apps program.  What do i do?
[23:07] <alexbobp> Chousuke: can I make apt-get download the deb without thinking about dependancies?
[23:07] <will00> has anyone had any success in using a windows media center remote with linux, i remember for my keyboard i use something called keytouch, is there anything along those lines for remote controls?
[23:07] <Boohbah> !pulseaudio
[23:07] <Boohbah> ^^ BUGGY
[23:07] <Boohbah> DO NOT DISTRIBUTE
[23:07] <alexbobp> mysterioso: sudo apt-get remove transmission
[23:07] <Flare183> mysterioso: in the terminal type in sudp apt-get remove deluge
[23:07] <Boohbah> :-P
[23:07] <Flare183> sudo *
[23:07] <Flare183> ....
[23:07] <ubuntuisloved> amenado, eclipse PID .....im saying if the remote mount with sshfs goes down which eclipse was using it hangs eclipse i cant seem to kill off eclipse when it happens the last thing someone here told me was to reboot? ive not heard that since windows era back 2 years ago?
[23:08] <MrObvious> Flare183: And he wants to remove transmission not deluge. :p
[23:08] <mysterioso> flare183 except I want to remove transmission
[23:08] <Chousuke> alexbobp: apt-get -d install libgphoto2-2
[23:08] <Flare183> Sorry
[23:08] <Boohbah> maximilion: did you have xmms working in another version of ubuntu?
[23:08] <MrObvious> mysterioso: Do what alexbobp said.
[23:08] <mysterioso> ok
[23:08] <Stormx2_> J-_: Does it need to be run as root?
[23:08] <MrObvious> Flare183: You should be. :p
[23:08] <mysterioso> how do I set deluge as default for bittorrent files/
[23:08] <Flare183> MrObvious: Sarcasm?
[23:08] <Stormx2_> will00: LIRC is good for remote controls
[23:09] <alexbobp> Chousuke: it refuses to download the deb because of dependancy handling.
[23:09] <MrObvious> mysterioso: I would just find a torrent file and right click it and try the Open With or whatever.
[23:09] <MrObvious> Flare183: No. :p
[23:09] <will00> ok stormx2_ is there a good gui program for that or is it all text mode?
[23:09] <Flare183> MrObvious: Then stupid response?
[23:09] <Boohbah> mysterioso: firefox?
[23:09] <Flare183> nvm
[23:09] <MrObvious> Flare183: lol
[23:09] <Flare183> !lol
[23:09] <mysterioso> boohbah I am using firefox
[23:09] <Stormx2_> will00: I *think* it's all text mode, but its not too hard to set up. I can help you through it, if you like.
[23:10] <Chousuke> alexbobp: ah, aptitude can do it
[23:10] <Chousuke> alexbobp: aptitude download whatever
[23:10] <will00> ok that would be perfect
[23:10] <alexbobp> IRC is IM.  It's just IM with a bit more grammatical skills.
[23:10] <Boohbah> mysterioso: so click on the torrent link and "open with..."
[23:10] <Chousuke> I wish
[23:10] <mepsipax> sudo apt-get install ubuntu-restricted-extras will install quicktime for firefox
[23:10] <Flare183> alexbobp: No its not
[23:10]  * Flare183 is a IRC Op Helper
[23:10] <MrObvious> Flare183: Suckup. :p Hahaha j/k.
[23:10] <alexbobp> Flare183: any synchronous text messaging is IM.
[23:10] <Boohbah> alexbobp: i feel like we have high standards for irc here
[23:11] <alexbobp> Chousuke: thanks.  I'll have to install aptitude, but if it works, it works
[23:11] <mysterioso> boohbah yes i know, but i am trying to streamline, soo I was hoping someone could tell me a way to make deluge default.  or any program for any file for that matter.
[23:11] <jansen_> how do i open a .rpm file?
[23:11] <MrObvious> Boohbah: Yeah lol.
[23:11] <Flare183> MrObvious: No Actually I am trying to be a Ubuntu Member thank you
[23:11] <NovaXeros> IRC is multiplayer notepad, but that doesn't matter. This is a support channel, not a chin-wagging session.
[23:11] <Chousuke> alexbobp: then you can install the libgphoto thing with dpkg -i libgphoto*deb --ignore-depends=udev
[23:11] <Flare183> !ot
[23:11] <Stormx2_> will00, okay, that remote is definately supported
[23:11] <MrObvious> Flare183: I'm just messing. Chill man.
[23:11] <will00> alright
[23:11] <masni_palac> hajjjjj
[23:11] <Boohbah> mysterioso: did you check the box that says "use this program by default" ?
[23:11] <Flare183> MrObvious: ok I know...
[23:12] <mysterioso> uuuuhhhh..... hold on
[23:12] <tyberion> Ive got a little question... Ive got a laptop with special key FN+F2 for pushing my volume up and down... and in gnome it worked since I first installed hardy... so now I wanna switch to fluxbox and need to know which app it is that makes my hotkeys for adjusting my volume possible.. could anyone plzzz take a look at: http://pastebin.org/39311 and tell me what app it is?????
[23:12] <mysterioso> boohbah where is this box?
[23:12] <yesudeep2> Uhh.  What's going on with the openoffice packages?
[23:13] <will00> stormx2_ is there someplace we can talk with less traffic?
[23:13] <yesudeep2> sudo aptitude full-upgrade keeps asking me to resolve an openoffice conflict by removing parts of openoffice one by one.
[23:13] <cliveRummble> Quick question - is it still possible to upgrade from Edgy - as its repository seems to have been removed from the main repository site ??
[23:13] <Stormx2_> will00: PM okay?
[23:13] <Stormx2_> hold on
[23:13] <Stormx2_> Need to identify to services.
[23:13] <Mohenjo> Greetings all; I'm looking for an FAQ or other online reference tool for basic terminal commands, what they mean, what they do, etc.  Does anyone know where I should go to start learning some of the commands?
[23:14] <MrObvious> tyberion: It's a keybinding kind of thing I think. If you go to System -> Preferences -> Keyboard Shortcuts you will see a volume adjustment setting and see which key it is. On mine it is XF86Audio(whatever).
[23:14] <maximilion> Boohbah, I'm on Gutsy Gibbon, and yeah it works perfectly bar the volume control... kinda useful feature to have tho :)
[23:14] <MrObvious> !terminal | Mohenjo
[23:14] <Boohbah> mysterioso: ok it seems a little broken in firefox 3 beta 5 on hardy... is that what you're using?
[23:14] <maximilion> I've only had Gutsy so...
[23:14] <mysterioso> no I am using gutsy
[23:14] <jrib> cliveRummble: old-releases.ubuntu.com should let you get up to date and then move to feisty
[23:14] <alexbobp> Chousuke: thanks, it's working.
[23:14] <limac> anybody know how to apply the 3dmark patch to 0.9.59 wine?
[23:14] <jrib> cliveRummble: I've never done it, but that's what I would try anyway
[23:14] <mysterioso> boohbah no i am using gutsy
[23:14] <Boohbah> mysterioso: edit > preferences > applications ... at least in ff3
[23:14] <cliveRummble> thanks
[23:14] <Milk> hey guys
[23:15] <MrObvious> !hi | Milk
[23:15] <lemarroy> aldrin
[23:15] <Milk> I just upgraded to 8.04 via the update manager
[23:15] <jrib> cliveRummble: note that you need to upgrade edgy -> feisty -> gutsy -> hardy, so a backup and reinstall may be faster/easier
[23:15] <maximilion> Change of topic :) Are there any laptop manuf. that officially support Linux?
[23:15] <yesudeep2> What the hell has Ubuntu done to the open office packages?
[23:15] <tyberion> MrObvious: yeah I got athat too.. on launch media player... but... how would I integrate that into fluxbox?
[23:15] <yesudeep2> It's only removing it.  And now it's not even doing an upgrade
[23:15] <Milk> enabled the restricted nvidia drivers and now my dual monitors are broke... I'm lost..  I tried restoring a backup of the xorg.conf, and that doesn't seem to change anything
[23:15] <MrObvious> tyberion: You might be better off asking in a more fluxbox specific channel. I'm sure there are keybinding settings in Flux though.
[23:15] <Boohbah> maximilion: can you change the volume with the sound mixer app?
[23:15] <maximilion> Or the other way, distros that officially say "working well with this / that laptop"
[23:15] <yesudeep2> It said it wanted to install oo.org 2.4.1 to replace 2.4.0 and it needed to remove the existing version.
[23:16] <masni_palac> hi guys
[23:16] <tyberion> MrObvious: there are.. but I think I cant use the gnome thingies there.... so I need to get used to amixer I guess
[23:16] <Stormx2> !laptop | maximilion
[23:16] <maximilion> Boohbah, had ALSAmixergui working, now it won't start
[23:16] <Stormx2> will00, have you seen my PMs?
[23:16] <MrObvious> tyberion: There might be a volume setting. You'd have to look for yourself though.
[23:16] <maximilion> will check into that. weird.
[23:16] <cliveRummble> jrib - indeed, but I have customized some of the system so a complete reinstall may be painful....
[23:16] <Xsploit> im trying to get divx to work on firefox but having problems (on ubuntu)
[23:16] <will00> stormx2 yes
[23:17] <Stormx2> Have you sent any back?
[23:17] <francesco_> Hello, I'm looking for a channel to talk about Ubuntu programming. Could you help me please?
[23:17] <tyberion> Whats the tool that lets you grab keys?
[23:17] <Stormx2> Apparently LIRC setup is very easy nowerdays
[23:17] <will00> ok
[23:17] <debian> Stormx2: Can I have my own IRC server?
[23:17] <jrib> cliveRummble: not if you make backups
[23:17] <limac> anybody?
[23:17] <Stormx2> debian: What?
[23:17] <Boohbah> maximilion: how bout 'amixer' from the terminal?
[23:17] <Stormx2> Well, yeah, you could
[23:17] <Stormx2> Why ask me though?
[23:18] <MrObvious> tyberion: I'm not sure. You could play with the Gnome one and then figure out what the key names are.
[23:18] <debian> Stormx2: I want something cool for my ubuntu 8.04
[23:18] <Desktop_> okay
[23:18] <genii> !info ircd-hybrid | debian
[23:18] <Stormx2> Well
[23:18] <Desktop_> I tried turning off encryption but I still cannot connect
[23:18] <Boohbah> maximilion: or alsamixer from terminal
[23:18] <cliveRummble> jrib - yes  but there are changes to /etc for my laptop vido card, tomcat changes, and probably other stuff that isn't in /home. Maybe my fault... but I don't see an easy way to find what I have changed. Or am I missing something?
[23:19] <debian> genii: Hmm
[23:19] <Milk> anyone with any thoughts on restoring my dual monitor setup (or even resolutions higher than 800X600 atm)
[23:19] <debian> I'l think about it
[23:19] <debian> But I want to change resolution
[23:19] <debian> And I am scared of text files
[23:19] <Xsploit> im trying to get divx to work on firefox but having problems (on ubuntu)
[23:19] <jrib> cliveRummble: meh, you have to decide which approach would be more work, it's really up to you
[23:19] <Boohbah> Milk: what did you change?
[23:19] <debian> What should I do?
[23:19] <Boohbah> debian: but your name is debian
[23:19] <yesudeep2> debian: Don't be scared of text files.
[23:20] <will00> stormx2, i havnt had much luck with some of the programs, most of them dont show my remote in them
[23:20] <Boohbah> debian: i imagine it's pretty difficult to use debian without text files
[23:20] <debian> Just tell me how to fix the resplution!
[23:20] <Milk> Boohbah, Upgraded to 8.04, enabled restricted nvidia driver, restarted gdm
[23:20] <debian> Boohbah: Webin + a lot of plugins
[23:20] <limac> the wine source directory is /usr/lib/wine right?
[23:20] <Milk> brb... trying something
[23:20] <jansen_> how do i see if i have a lib installed?
[23:20] <talcite508> hey guys. I'm having some major problems with gdm
[23:20] <Boohbah> debian: something else about debian... they like people who know how to read and learn
[23:21] <talcite508> I can't log in! It keeps auto-logging in for me, and failing, then auto-logging again
[23:21] <nemilar> Is there a way to roll back HH to GG?
[23:21] <Stormx2> will00: Which programs have you tried?
[23:21] <BCM43> talcite508: what kind?
[23:21] <Pici> nemilar: no.
[23:21] <Stormx2> Have you installed LIRC?
[23:21] <Boohbah> debian: you asked about running an irc server and now you want to change screen resolution? which is it?
[23:21] <cliveRummble> jrib - thanks - I think I will go to bed and sleep on it!
[23:21] <will00> stormx2, yes
[23:21] <debian> Boohbah: But Ubuntu is for stupid people
[23:21] <Milk> and back
[23:21] <Milk> didn't work
[23:21] <debian> Boohbah: Screeb res
[23:21] <talcite508> BCM43: all my syslog says is "warning:couldn't authenticate user" about 500 times
[23:22] <nemilar> Pici: :( 8.04 is too buggy
[23:22] <talcite508> I can start a tty, but that's it
[23:22] <Boohbah> debian: so have you tried the fine gui tool available for that task?
[23:22] <Stormx2> will00: Some programs have LIRC interfaces built in. Some don't. But first you need to test that LIRC is working. Open a terminal and type "irw". Then start pressing buttons on your remote.
[23:22] <yesudeep2> debian: You must believe Donald Knuth is stupid because he seems to like and use Ubuntu a lot.
[23:22] <debian> Boohbah: Where and what is it named?
[23:22] <Stormx2> See if some stuff comes up.
[23:22] <BCM43> talcite508: when you go to text based, can  you log in?
[23:22] <Boohbah> yesudeep2: for real?
[23:22] <hdevalence> hey, FF tells me I need more plugins, and it didn't find them (application/x-mplayer2)
[23:22] <hdevalence> so how do I get that
[23:22] <yesudeep2> Boohbah: Yes, Donald Knuth uses Ubuntu.
[23:22] <Boohbah> yesudeep2: i hear linus uses fedora. last i heard
[23:22] <talcite508> BCM43: yes, no problem
[23:23] <lemarroy> ese estas hay
[23:23] <debian> Screen resolution can fix it"
[23:23] <debian> Jay!
[23:23] <Boohbah> !es | lemarroy
[23:23] <yesudeep2> Yeah.  Linus has used Fedora, SuSE, Ubuntu, etc. but not Debian because he thinks the mindset of Debian is not right.
[23:23] <\3TATUK> I've never seen update-notifier display anything other than 'The list of changes is not available yet. Please try again later.' in the 'Changes' section to any update that's been available.  Is this always the case, or are changelogs actually supplied if I just wait instead of updating immediately?
[23:23] <debian> is 1280x800 widescreen?
[23:23] <yesudeep2> And says he wouldn't like to use those source-based distributions as well.
[23:23] <hdevalence> debian: yes
[23:23] <Slart> debian: yes

[23:26] <Uatec_> damn
[23:26] <Uatec_> what's happened was my machine crashed
[23:26] <Boohbah> yesudeep2: when i get a new dual core i'll at least run it in virtualbox to mess around with it
[23:26] <wepeel> Stupid question: how do I find my processor information (speed, type) without going into the BIOS?
[23:26] <markotitel> and now problem is I can boot only with cdrom

[23:28] <Uatec_> sorry Boohbah
[23:28] <mepsipax> I installed ubtuntu-restricted-extras
[23:28] <wepeel> markotitel, hurm, no such file or dir
[23:29] <wepeel> this is 6.10
[23:29] <Uatec_> Nith, i don't know if it is correct or not
[23:29] <BCM43> Boohbah: i can tell, you talk to it privately a lot
[23:29] <ArthurArchnix> weepal.. just cd to the /cat directory and then do "ls"... you should see cpu somewhere. Try and cat it.
[23:29] <Uatec_> i don't know what it was before the crash, so i have no way to compare
[23:29] <wepeel> I am installing Hardy right now on my laptop, though. People relatively happy with it?
[23:29] <wepeel> thanks ArthurArchnix
[23:29] <yesudeep2> mepsipax: sudo aptitude install ~ngstreamer0.10-plugins mplayer vlc
[23:29] <nemanja>  hellol
[23:29] <Boohbah> BCM43: do i? why do you say that?
[23:29] <Slart> wepeel: more of a smug content.. but yea
[23:29] <Uatec_> wepeel, is hardy the heron one?
[23:29] <Nith> Uatec_: what are you trying to use ld for?
[23:30] <Uatec_> Nith, linking...
[23:30] <Nith> manually?
[23:30] <wepeel> Slart, smug content? how so?
[23:30] <Uatec_> yes
[23:30] <nemilar> wepeel: honestly, I've had nothing but problems since I've upgraded to HH
[23:30] <wepeel> Uatec_, yeah, I think so
[23:30] <wepeel> I am doing a fresh install
[23:30] <BCM43> Boohbah: you sent the offtopic to yourself
[23:30] <Nith> are you using fully qualified paths?
[23:30] <Boohbah> Uatec_: what were you doing when your machine crashed?
[23:30] <BCM43> nemilar: like what?
[23:31] <Slart> wepeel: I was kind of expecting a bit more from a LTS release.. but it still works.. and I still get to feel smug when I talk to my windows-friends =)
[23:31] <BCM43> !prayer > Boohbah
[23:31] <Boohbah> BCM43: yes, i was straying offtopic
[23:31] <nemilar> BCM43: it's stuck with openGL desktop enabled, even if I turned it off; it's stuck with emerald instead of metacity; epiphany keeps crashing
[23:31] <Uatec_> i'm not, i just called ld with a bunch of relative paths, and it says "ld: cannot find cd" and gives that path "/usr/bin/../lib/cd" when i put it in verbose mode
[23:31] <Condoulo> when I'm editing an item in the menu, how do I make sure the item runs as root?
[23:31] <nemilar> BCM43: pulseaudio is garbage; flash crashes all the time
[23:31] <Slart> Condoulo: put a gksudo in front of the command
[23:31] <Uatec_> Boohbah, ,i wasn't doing much, but it was the host machine that crashed (this linux machine is a virtual machine in virtualbox)
[23:31] <wepeel> Slart, heh. I've been using 6.10 for a long time...I hope this will be better *crosses fingers*
[23:32] <Condoulo> Slart, Thanks. :)
[23:32] <BCM43> nemilar: flash crashes in firefox?
[23:32] <Uatec_> wepeel,  i'm using hardy heron now, it's making me very happy, it's so damn fast
[23:32] <Boohbah> Uatec_: what OS is the host?
[23:32]  * Slart actually like pulseaudio.. am I the only one
[23:32] <nemilar> BCM43: affirmative
[23:32] <Uatec_> Boohbah, vista
[23:32] <BCM43> !fffc | nemilar
[23:32] <Stormx2> will00: No, shouldn't be.
[23:32] <Boohbah> Uatec_: the virtual disk is probably corrupted
[23:32] <Uatec_> hmm
[23:33] <yesudeep2> BCM43: What's the extra f for in fffc?
[23:33] <BCM43> nemilar: thats one down
[23:33] <Slart> yesudeep2: FireFox Flash Crash ?
[23:33] <nemilar> BCM43: I'll do that, thank you
[23:33] <yesudeep2> Ah.
[23:33] <BCM43> yesudeep2: fire fox flash crash
[23:33] <Uatec_> well it's running ok (ish, X configuration was broken before)
[23:33] <nemilar> BCM43: but I rather use Epiphany rather than FF, anyhow
[23:33] <Uatec_> hmm, i wonder how i could do some sort of check disk
[23:33] <Uatec_> i don't particularly want to have to intsall it (ps. if i do, i'm going to take a back up of the disk image as soon as i'm done)
[23:33] <will00> ok stormx2, i have lirc installed
[23:33] <Stormx2> Wicked.
[23:34] <Stormx2> will00: Some programs have LIRC interfaces built in. Some don't. But first you need to test that LIRC is working. Open a terminal and type "irw". Then start pressing buttons on your remote.
[23:34] <wepeel> Ok, this is strange. I cat'ed proc/cpuinfo and got AMD Athlon 64 3200+  with cpuMHz at 800.000 . I thought this was a faster processor... any reports of incorrect processor reporting in 6.10?
[23:34] <nemilar> BCM43: Epiphany will refuse to open once a day, and the only way I've found to fix it is a reboot... logging out/in doesn't help
[23:34] <Boohbah> Uatec_: fsck /dev/sdx
[23:34] <Boohbah> Uatec_: only fsck with disks unmounted, so if it's root do it at boot
[23:34] <Slart> wepeel: your processor clocks itself down when it's not doing anything really important..
[23:34] <markotitel> can someone help me on raid0 and ubuntu
[23:34] <markotitel> do I have to make boot partition out of raid
[23:35] <Uatec_> oh, ok
[23:35] <markotitel> or I dont have to make boot partition at all
[23:35] <Uatec_> well thanks for the hel
[23:35] <Uatec_> p
[23:35] <will00> stormx2 it said " connect: Connection refused"
[23:35] <Boohbah> !raid | markotitel
[23:35] <Slart> wepeel: my processor runs at 1GHz at.. it's rated at 2.4 GHz
[23:35] <Uatec_> i guess i have to reboot this machine now then
[23:35] <wepeel> Slart, ah, thanks :) so really, the only way to find the Processor speed (I guess the max rating) is in BIOS?
[23:35] <Uatec_> bye bye
[23:35] <Stormx2> will00: Try doing this first: sudo /etc/init.d/lirc start
[23:35] <Boohbah> Uatec_: wait
[23:35] <Uatec_> yes?
[23:35] <McJester> where can I get a new sources.list for Hardy Powerpc?
[23:35] <Stormx2> will00: Or it may be this: sudo /etc/init.d/lircd start
[23:35] <jbroome> wepeel: cat /proc/cpuinfo
[23:35] <maximilion> night guys :) thx Boohbah, Stormx2 :)
[23:35] <BCM43> nemilar: cant help you with the rest, try asking on the channel
[23:36] <wepeel> jbroome, yep, that's what I did
[23:36] <will00> stormx2, you had it the first time
[23:36] <Boohbah> Uatec_: i think you need to boot with some option
[23:36] <BCM43> McJester: you should not need it, it should be automatic
[23:36] <nemilar> BCM43: thanks for the FF flash help, though
[23:36] <Slart> wepeel: there's probably some weird file you can look at somewhere in the /proc tree.. I've given up trying to remember all the neat stuff in there
[23:36] <nemilar> thanks
[23:36] <Boohbah> Uatec_: to run fsck before the root filesystem is mounted
[23:36] <mepsipax> In VLC it says Unable to open 'rtsp://<IP_ADDRESS>:80/japanese/jpns2621/lesson08.mov'
[23:36] <nemanja>  ddddddddd
[23:36] <Catslacks> Ok, I still can't get my wireless working. I have ndiswrapper and the driver installed. It shows my network in the manager and I can select it, but after I type in my key it just does it's little 'trying to connect' thing and then nothing.
[23:36] <McJester> BCM43, I screwed mine up without making a backup
[23:36] <Uatec_> Boohbah, yes, i was going to google for that
[23:36] <Cazy_Mofo> hi, im using 8.04 and I can't get my external monitor to work, any advice?
[23:36] <Stormx2> will00: Does irw work now?
[23:36] <Uatec_> first i'm backing up my data
[23:37] <BCM43> Catslacks: what wireless card?
[23:37] <Boohbah> Uatec_: ok, great!
[23:37] <wepeel> Cazy_Mofo, are you running a laoptop, then?
[23:37] <Cazy_Mofo> yes
[23:37] <Catslacks> D-Link DWA542
[23:37] <will00> by work do you mean sit there in the terminal and give no output when i press buttons?
[23:37] <BCM43> McJester: ill give you a copy of mine. Where is it again>
[23:37] <wepeel> I give lots of presentations on my laptop and it's essential that the monitor out work. I'm installing 8.04 right now
[23:38] <wepeel> I'm curious, though, to see what the BIOS on this machine says. Be bcak in a bit :)
[23:38] <BCM43> Catslacks: please do lspci and put the result in pastebin
[23:38] <eugman> Is there anyone who has chucK running? I apparently don't have my sound setup for it and don't know how to take care of it.
[23:39] <Catslacks> I'm on a different computer, but I can go write down what you need
[23:39] <talcite2> ok. There, a proper irc client
[23:39] <talcite2> so yeah, I'm totally stumped and very worried
[23:39] <LordOllie> improper irc client sounds dirty
[23:39] <talcite2> basically, my entire system just went haywire
[23:39] <yesudeep2> Catslacks: Is your computer not connected to the internet in any way?
[23:39] <will00> stormx2, i think its working
[23:39] <limac> Accept the defaults, an option will come up to set a description, set one and enter, select the next default, job done - checkinstall created a .deb package, installed it and left a copy in the folder you're working in.
[23:39] <Stormx2> Is text showing up when you press buttons?
[23:39] <Catslacks> No.
[23:40] <Stormx2> (on the remote)
[23:40] <rich_freecomm> Are my problems with SWF unique? I've reinstalled gstreamer, totem, firefox 3 (then uninstalled it to go back to 2 to see if that was the issue), nsplugin, gnash...I'm out of ideas on why SWF (local) file will only open a FF window and will sit there as if it were loading...for hours
[23:40] <limac> what do they mean by the set one and enter?
[23:40] <talcite2> GDM is stuck in an endless login loop. It automatically logs in with empty credentials and of course fails
[23:40] <will00> stormx2, no nothing shows up
[23:40] <tyberion> hi, is anyone familiar with the usage of amixer???
[23:40] <Stormx2> will00: Hmm. Not good.
[23:40] <will00> stormx2 i kinda figured
[23:40] <Stormx2> You selected your remote during the install, yeah?
[23:40] <LordOllie> talcite, create an empty credential user?
[23:40] <talcite2> if I go into a tty and start xorg manually, it starts, but all the windows flash on and off, and no taskbars appear
[23:40] <yesudeep2> Catslacks: It's easier pasting command output to the pastebin if you use pastebinit and have at least a wired connection.
[23:41] <BCM43> !prefix
[23:41] <yesudeep2> sudo aptitude install pastebinit and then   lspci | pastebinit
[23:41] <talcite2> its as if the windowmanager went insane
[23:41] <Catslacks> Yes, I know. And if I could have one I would be doing that. But I can't. Sorry to sound blunt, but I've had to explain this at least 10 times, haha.
[23:41] <debian> Should 64 bit stuff be faster than 32 bit stuff on a 64 cpu?
[23:41] <talcite2> BCM43, LordOllie, any ideas?
[23:41] <BCM43> !prefix | yesudeep2 talcite2 Catslacks
[23:41] <Slart> debian: barely
[23:42] <debian> Slart: Is the ubuntu intel driver bether than the windows intel driver?
[23:42] <BCM43> talcite2 did you put it in pastebin?
[23:42] <Boohbah> yesudeep2: a script for automatic pastbin?
[23:42] <Slart> debian: eh.. I have no idea what so ever
[23:42] <yesudeep2> Boohbah: yeah
[23:42] <Gin> debian: for some is faster. but that's probably just a feeling. but I think it should encode faster on a 64bit system
[23:42] <talcite2> BCM43: put what in pastebin? sorry I was using a terrible client before. I probably missed your message
[23:42] <BCM43> talcite2 were you the one with wireless trouble?
[23:42] <talcite2> nope
[23:43] <talcite2> BCM43: I was the one with repeating GDM troubles
[23:43] <Boohbah> BCM43: is there someone who doesn't have wireless trouble? only those who don't use it
[23:43] <BCM43> talcite2: ah. sorry. i found nothing
[23:43] <talcite2> =/
[23:43] <debian> Gin: So now my computer is super fast?
[23:43] <talcite2> argh. This is insane. I did nothing to break it!
[23:43]  * yesudeep2 doesn't have wireless troubles.
[23:43] <BCM43> Boohbah: yesudeep2 does not
[23:43] <talcite2> Does anyone know how to disable compiz from console?
[23:43] <Boohbah> well i don't either
[23:44] <wepeel> ok, 8.04 installed. let's see if I can get wireless going ;)
[23:44] <NetTroller> trying to get onto the site to search an error on install..but forums are very very slow ..anyone seen 'error 15' on installing a dual boot?
[23:44] <Slart> wepeel: lshw -C cpu will tell you the processor speed.. regardless of powersaving mode
[23:44] <will00> stormx2, i didnt see the last message, how would i have selected it?
[23:44] <Boohbah> BCM43: so that's 2 of 1309 people who don't have wireless trouble
[23:44] <wepeel> Slart, ah, ok. let's see if it matches what I just saw
[23:45] <tyberion> How do I use amixer in order to set my 'Master' to +5% volume?? anyone used to this?
[23:45] <Gin> debian: I don't think your computer is superfast with a 64bit system, it should be as fast as the 32bit version
[23:45] <Boohbah> BCM43: you understand my logic?
[23:45] <Xsploit> Could not listen on port: 64652! <-- how do i change that?
[23:45] <Gin> debian: just give it a try and see if you like it better than the 32bit
[23:45] <Stormx2> will00: When you installed LIRC, it should have come up with a window asking what remote you'd like to use
[23:45] <Boohbah> Xsploit: listen on a different port
[23:45] <Stormx2> Wait, what ubuntu version are you on?
[23:45] <Catslacks> BCM43: I typed lspci and my adapter is there. I also tried ndiswrapper -l and it said the driver was installed and the device is detected. I can see my wireless network in the list, but can't connect.
[23:45] <Itaku> !lamp
[23:45] <Stormx2> Itaku: Who was that for?
[23:45]  * Dena has a trouble with Wireless can't make Wlanassistnt work with Ultimate Edition of Ubuntu
[23:45] <BCM43> Boohbah: well, mine works fine now, but you have no idea how hard it was before. yes i understand the logic, but have you seen how many people com in there with sound trouble? !offtopic | BCM43.
[23:46] <Xsploit> Boohbah yea... how ??
[23:46] <BCM43> Catslacks: put lspci in pastebin
[23:46] <Boohbah> BCM43: my point was that wireless is always a challenge to setup. ;-P
[23:46] <will00> ok stormx2, should i uninstall and reinstall it then?
[23:46] <Boohbah> Xsploit: i don't know, what program is it?
[23:46] <yesudeep2> Boohbah: make that 7 because 2 of my friends and my other desktop machines which have wireless builtin work out of the box as well.
[23:46] <debian> Gin: 32bit win xp
[23:46] <debian> Can I apt-get wine?
[23:46] <Catslacks> BCM43: I can't. I'm on a different computer with no connection to the other one. I can write down what you need, though.
[23:47] <unr3a1> debian: yes.  sudo apt-get install wine
[23:47] <yesudeep2> and one of them has a broadcom card. <-- funny that worked right.
[23:47] <Xsploit> Boohbah: 'ninja video helper'
[23:47] <kassinger> anyone haveing problem with lime wire pro launches just fine but in the center where you select what your looking for and name and download window are blank
[23:47] <BCM43> Catslacks: do you have a usb flash drive?
[23:47] <Anubis> did anyone try to use aerodump-ng?
[23:47] <BCM43> !anyone | Anubis
[23:47] <Boohbah> Xsploit: i don't know what that is. did you install it from an ubuntu repository? if not, we can't help you
[23:47] <white_eagle> guys I couldn't change my keyboard layout so I removed it and I added it again, then this window hopped up: "Error activating XKB configuration.

[23:47] <debian> unr3a1: NO! You should use aptitude
[23:48] <BCM43> Catslacks: ok, do you see broadcom anywhere on it?
[23:48] <Slart> debian: care to tell us why?
[23:48] <Stormx2> will00: No. What ubuntu version do you use? Hardy?
[23:48] <BCM43> debian: this argument was had a while a go on the channel, they won.
[23:48] <Xsploit> nope
[23:48] <will00> stormx2, yes
[23:48] <Stormx2> Hm.
[23:48] <wepeel> okay, first problem. The system has told me that it's using restricted drivers (Atheros HAL and Support for Atheros 802.11 wireless LAN cards), but I cannot connect. When I go to network, everything is greyed out
[23:49] <Stormx2> will00: sudo dpkg-reconfigure lirc <-- do that from a terminal.
[23:49] <Boohbah> NetTroller: are you trolling?
[23:49] <wepeel> oh
[23:49] <wepeel> there's something new
[23:49] <Gin> wepeel: what Network?
[23:49] <wepeel> Gin, didn't notice the 'unlock' thing
[23:49] <cens0red> good moaning.

[23:50] <Stormx2> will00: sudo /etc/init.d/lirc restart
[23:50] <wepeel> Gin, that's new to me...was it introduced in 7.x? (unlock)
[23:50] <Stormx2> will00, then do irw again.
[23:50] <BCM43> debian: tell them that, i use it.
[23:51] <Gin> wepeel: nope, it is introduced in Hardy I think
[23:51] <Catslacks> BCM43: No, broadcom isn't on it

[23:51] <Xsploit> mmkay got it
[23:51] <will00> stormx2, same issue
[23:51] <Catslacks> BCM43: Yes, my wireless card is listed there.
[23:51] <yesudeep2> debian: Plus aptitude is less irritating.  apt-get barfs every time there is a typo.  So if you have 4 typos, it'll stop upto 4 times until you've corrected them.
[23:51] <cens0red> !hi | BCM43
[23:51] <BCM43> Catslacks: what is it?
