[12:01] <keegan_> Does anyone know an Alternative to Checkinstall, cause it keeps failing on me
[12:02] <lupine_85> keegan: roll your own?
[12:02] <keegan_> roll my own?
[12:02] <lupine_85> package
[12:02] <keegan_> How do I do that?
[12:02] <lupine_85> create the requisite directory structure and dpkg -b
[12:03] <keegan_> requisite directory structure?
[12:04] <lupine_85> The build dir should contain one directory called DEBIAN... this contains control, and any pre/postrm/inst scripts. The build dir also contains the directory tree of the application
[12:04] <lupine_85> writing the control file is probably the hardest bit
[12:04] <keegan_> That seems like a lot of work...
[12:05] <keegan_> All I want to do is build the new thunar from source...
[12:05] <lupine_85> it is
[12:05] <tj_> change language from command line?... anybody?
[12:05] <princemackenzie> everyone: installing a server and then ubuntu-desktop is pretty much the same a real install, no?
[12:05] <keegan_> Everytime I build from source everything screws up on me
[12:05] <tj_> keegan: do you have bui;d-essential, and make packages?
[12:05] <keegan_> Yes I do...
[12:06] <tj_> whats the error?
[12:06] <keegan_> Building Debian package... FAILED!
[12:06] <keegan_> I get that when I try to checkinstall
[12:06] <Quaggo> greetings
[12:06] <tj_> have you tried auto installers (just to see if it works)
[12:07] <keegan_> like automake?
[12:07] <Quaggo> i was wondering if there is anyone who could answer a couple questions for me, I am having trouble using ubuntu for the first time...
[12:07] <tj_> stuff like that
[12:07] <boink> just ask
[12:08] <keegan_> I did sh autogen.sh to start the process
[12:08] <Quaggo> well, i have tried to get the live cd to boot successfully on two different machines now, both with no success
[12:08] <keegan_> Is that sing an auto installer?
[12:08] <keegan_> using*
[12:08] <DaveyJ> Quaggo: maybe the burn went bad?
[12:08] <keegan_> Here is the error I got in the log file for checkinstall "dpkg-deb: parse error, in file `/var/tmp/SkSbeTUQrDJZpfhNIdkmS/package/DEBIAN/control' near line 7 package `xfce4-dev-tools':
[12:08] <keegan_>  error in Version string `<IP_ADDRESS>svn-r23165-   1': version string has embedded

[12:08] <riddlebox> how come dapper detects my wireless card as eth1 using ndiswrapper, but then once in a while it detects it as wlan0?
[12:08] <DaveyJ> keegan_: pastebin
[12:09] <tj_> keegan: i dont beleive so, have you just tried to use sudo make install as opposed to sudoo checkinstall?
[12:09] <Quaggo> basically, it gets all the way up to where the dark maroon background comes up and the top and bottom bars show up, but that is all..it just sits there for hours..no icons come up, no nothing but the empty screen with maroon background and top and bottom bars
[12:09] <Quaggo> I am installing the latest dapper drake desktop
[12:09] <keegan_> No I haven't...
[12:09] <keegan_> That worked lol
[12:09] <keegan_> Whats the difference of Checkinstall and make install?
[12:09] <Gnelg> Quaggo, what video card do you have
[12:10] <Quaggo> geforce 5600 FX
[12:10] <princemackenzie> quaggo, i was having that problem
[12:10] <Lanch^trn> this looks like a good channel to pick up girls
[12:10] <Quaggo> lol
[12:10] <princemackenzie> quaggo, and then all i did was turn off my overclocking
[12:10] <Quaggo> you are referring to overclocking in the bios?
[12:11] <princemackenzie> quaggo, yeah
[12:11] <Quaggo> hmm. but im' not overclocking. I also tried using an old voodoo based card, same results
[12:11] <Quaggo> i try starting in safe graphics mode, same problem
[12:11] <nownot> when i boot my system i get /bin/sh: cant access tty; job contorl turnted off next line usb 1-1: device not accepting address 2, error -71
[12:12] <Quaggo> what overclocking settings did you change, prince?
[12:12] <Lanch^trn> my linux is full of virus and pop-ups, what can i do?
[12:12] <junkphreak> lol
[12:12] <Gnelg> Quaggo, I was having the same trouble
[12:12] <Lanch^trn> running northon antivirus doesn't seem to help
[12:12] <Quaggo> really? what did you do?
[12:12] <princemackenzie> quaggo, i just switched it off altogether and set it to optimized defaults
[12:12] <Quaggo> gnelg?
[12:13] <junkphreak> :}
[12:13] <nownott> anyone know anything that can help me?
[12:13] <Quaggo> i also have an abit motherboard with VIA chipset..i tried using the pci=acpioff but didn't help
[12:13] <Quaggo> what motherboard prince?
[12:14] <Lanch^trn> nownott: unplug usb stuff before turning on machine
[12:14] <junkphreak> you try low vga option ?
[12:14] <Lanch^trn> nownott and see if boot continues
[12:14] <Gnelg> Quaggo, just before it went to brown background I would swith to the terminal screen using CTRL+ALT+F1 and login there and installed the nvidia binaries
[12:14] <princemackenzie> quaggo, i have a gigabyte motherboard with nvidia, i think our problems are unrelated
[12:14] <hugo> is there a way to easily make all members of one group belong to another group as well? for example by giving the second group the same gid as the first one?
[12:15] <tokenbad> ok I got the partitions into 1 partition
[12:15] <Lanch^trn> if people have so many probs with linux, i think they should try windows
[12:15] <tokenbad> but now I can't write to it
[12:15] <Lanch^trn> this isn't just for anybody
[12:15] <Lanch^trn> and if windows is still too tough
[12:15] <Lanch^trn> well , who said you had to have a computer? :)
[12:15] <nownott> Lanch^trn: now i just get /bin/sh: cant access tty; job control turned off
[12:15] <Gnelg> Lanch^trn can you loan us the $300 plus needed to purchase windows
[12:16] <Lanch^trn> gnelg: do you have some shop selling you the pc without windows with 300$ dollars discounted from the pricetag?
[12:16] <princemackenzie> bored and trolling, Lanch^trn?
[12:16] <Gnelg> I built my own
[12:16] <Lanch^trn> gnelg: i'm using linux right now but i realize that linux and computers aren't just for anyone
[12:16] <Lanch^trn> it's a matter of fact
[12:17] <ChaosFan> you can say that about everything
[12:17] <keegan_> I got an error using automake-1.8  it says "configure.in:41: option `tar-ustar` not recognized"
[12:17] <Jack_Sparrow> No one os is for everyone
[12:17] <keegan_> Anyone know what that means?
[12:17] <junkphreak> depends i guess on th preson really if you really want it you can make anything work for you :}
[12:17] <junkphreak> person
[12:17] <Lanch^trn> indeed but let's admit that many makes use of linux just to tell others how k3wl and elite they are
[12:17] <tokenbad> anyone tell me how to mount an ext3 drive so I can write to it?
[12:18] <ChaosFan> there are people warming up their cat in a microwave...
[12:18] <Lanch^trn> despite they are no productive at all
[12:18] <keegan_> !tar-ustar
[12:18] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about tar-ustar - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[12:18] <keegan_> Damn...
[12:18] <keegan_> Wonder what that is..
[12:18] <nownott> ok well on boot i get this error /bin/sh: can't access tty; job control turned off and a # on the next line
[12:18] <keegan_> Thats the only thing I hate about linux dependecies...
[12:18] <keegan_> Always fucks me in the ass
[12:19] <Quaggo> gnelg did u get my message?
[12:19] <junkphreak> not I i use it linux at home or OS becure of the freedom it gives me and use unix at work only time i have to toucha windoze OS is when i have ti access my corp sites
[12:19] <Jack_Sparrow> Lanch^trn: Stop trolling, this is a help channel.  You want discussion, try #Ubuntu-offtopic
[12:19] <Gnelg> no
[12:19] <Lanch^trn> end trolling, good night ppl
[12:19] <Jack_Sparrow> goodnight
[12:19] <keegan_> So yeah lets leave the offtopic out of here and help me out..
[12:19] <junkphreak> virus in linux
[12:19] <junkphreak> hahah
[12:19] <vorbote> keegan_: ustar is a tar format used in sysv unices. SCO Unix still uses it (that's a blast from the past, phew).
[12:20] <Gnelg> Quaggo no I didn't
[12:20] <junkphreak> whats wrong
[12:20] <keegan_> So how would I go along installing it?
[12:20] <tokenbad> besides qtparted is there something else I can use to wipe a drive and reset partitions?
[12:20] <JosefK> vorbote: blast from the past for you, some of us still have to use it :(
[12:20] <Quaggo> ok well what do you type at the console after doing ctrl-alt-F1
[12:20] <Jack_Sparrow> nownott: Was this system working before or an insall that did not go through
[12:20] <Quaggo> ?
[12:20] <nownott> hmm futher on teh screen it says mount /root/dev on /dev/.static/dev faild: no such file or directory and a couple of more mounts that failed
[12:20] <simtower> blast from teh past
[12:20] <mrbrdo> my ALTGR + other keys combinations don't work (they should make special chars) - i chose a 104 key keyboard and no dead keys - was this wrong? plz help
[12:21] <atraeyu> I just installed roundcube-webmail, edited the two config files, and I'm getting a php error.  Anyone have any experience with roundcube?
[12:21] <vorbote> keegan_: as far as I know, the only contemporanous tar that supports it would be star by guy that writes cdrecord (you'll find pointers in freshmeat).
[12:21] <atraeyu> I think it may be a dependency problem.
[12:21] <keegan_> star is in the ubuntu repos...
[12:21] <keegan_> well a program called star..
[12:21] <vorbote> Less work
[12:21] <Gnelg> Quaggo ok hit enter and see if you have a login prompt or what
[12:22] <Quaggo> let me try that BRB\
[12:22] <jabular_> =
[12:25] <Jack_Sparrow> tokenbad: gparted
[12:26] <jpjacobs> tokenbad, usually i use fdisk (i know I'm a console addict) but that get's most done with the minimum of fuss
[12:27] <tokenbad> jpjacobs, and fdisk is part of ubuntu?
[12:27] <jpjacobs> dunno, think that's part of about every distro
[12:27] <jpjacobs> it is
[12:28] <drew> hey
[12:28] <jpjacobs> hi drew
[12:28] <Rug> How do I get kopete to send a blank-line at the end of a message with-out having to hit Enter twice?  In ICQ & Gaim, hitting Enter at the end of the line preforms a Carriage Return, Ctrl + Enter then sends the message.  Now if I hit enter at the end of a message, it does drop down to the next line, but Ctrl+Enter erases that null character.
[12:28] <Rug> I need to hit Enter twice if I want a blank-space between messages.
[12:28] <Paddy_EIRE> hey guys i just downloaded and converted gtkradiant to .deb using alien, it installed successfully with dependencies satisfied...I know have the problem of finding out how to launch it and where it is. when i do "whereis gtkradiant" i get "gtkradiant:" returned???
[12:28] <tokenbad> jpjacobs, ok trying to figure out how to use the fdisk
[12:28] <drew> umm I got a 3 gig partion but its path is /tmp/disk-conf-hda7 I want its path to be /mnt/hda7
[12:28] <drew> how can I do this in ubuntu
[12:28] <jpjacobs> Rug, tried shift-eter?
[12:28] <lupine_85> Paddy_EIRE: dpkg -L <package>
[12:29] <Paddy_EIRE> nice one
[12:29] <lupine_85> lists all files installed by the package
[12:29] <jpjacobs> tokenbad, hit m to get commands overview, hit p to print the partittiontable
[12:29] <jpjacobs> hit a to toggle "bootable" flag, and n for new partition, d to delete.
 excellent :)
[12:30] <jpjacobs> whatever you do, do make a  backup
[12:31] <Jack_Sparrow> lupine_85: Question, if you remove all listed packages do you also run the risk of pulling dependencies for other programs as well?
[12:31] <Rug> Shift-Enter is counter-intuitve to add a line
[12:31] <Meglo> How do I restart the Xserver?
[12:31] <Meglo> :<
[12:31] <GTroy> meglo go to terminal
[12:32] <lupine_85> Jack_Sparrow: IIRC, apt-get processes all pending operations in it's DV
[12:32] <Meglo> Already there.
[12:32] <lupine_85> erm, DB
[12:32] <jpjacobs> Rug, but does it work?
[12:32] <lupine_85> dpkg doesn't
[12:32] <GTroy> type sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop
[12:32] <drew> did anybody read my question?
[12:32] <GTroy> meglo the hit the wonderful command ctrl+alt+backspace
[12:33] <Rug> jpjacobs: "Enter" is the key to preform a Carriage-Return.  Yes Shift-Enter works, hitting Enter twice works too, but that doesn't answer the 'why' of sending a message deletes the null-C/R at the end of the message
[12:33] <hugo> I pipe grep output through cut to get the first value in each line. now I want to connect these one-value-per-line with colons to one long line. how can I do that?
[12:34] <jpjacobs> Ru, ah right, like that.
 upon checking the net a little further I have found a few more things need to be done to get radiant working, so how would i remove this package and all files/folders it created so I can start from fresh tomorrow
[12:34] <Rug> jpjacobs: What?
[12:34] <jpjacobs> Rug, i see what you mean
[12:34] <Asterisk411> can someone help me, I'm trying to install unbuntu (new to linix) but I keep on getting errors
[12:34] <Rug> ahh
[12:34] <radek> hi desperatly looking for dvb-usb-wt220u-zl0353-01.fw firmwar
[12:34] <lupine_85> apt-get remove --purge
[12:35] <Jack_Sparrow> Paddy_EIRE: Set fire to that hunk and reinstall tomorrow  ..  :)
[12:35] <Rug> jpjacobs: AND, just to annoy some, Gaim works
[12:35] <gubluntu> what is the correct mime type extension for a pgp encrypted text file?
 :) yeah i know
[12:35] <drew> can anybody help me?
[12:35] <radek> anyone have a copy of dvb-usb-wt220u-zl0353-01.fw can you help
[12:35] <Jack_Sparrow> Paddy_EIRE: Just re-apply thermal grease and you should no longer overheat.

[12:37] <terlmann> ahh.. drew go to the system mune and choos admin and disks and reformat under /mnt
[12:38] <Asterisk411> can someone help me, I'm trying to install unbuntu (new to linix) but I keep on getting errors 4295815.13100 Buffer I/O error on device HDC, Logical block 0

[12:38] <terlmann> no
[12:39] <hikenboot> Asterisk411, why not try and run fsck from inside a live cd on that drive?
[12:39] <christina> hi, i have a problem with my wireless card, its brand trendnet, its getting power and its being read in the networks window, but it doesnt connect to the internet, i got the driver from a windows version through ndiswrapper
[12:39] <jarodl> I can't seem to burn to DVD -R's in Dapper Drake.  I can burn to DVD +RW's, though.  Anybody know how to burn to DVD -R's?
[12:39] <DaveyJ> heyo i'm in xubuntu and i'm trying to add some partitions to my new disks.. the create partition option is disabled.. how do i go about formatting these disks?
[12:39] <terlmann> get a dvd - drive
[12:39] <keegan_> DaveyJ: Try using gparted
[12:39] <jarodl> My drive supports all types.
[12:39] <lupine_85> jarodl: as long as they're both supported by the DVD drive, they should burn the same
[12:39] <Jack_Sparrow> jarodl: dvd iso's are a problem, most data dvd's are fine
 err...Jack what does the /opt directory normally contain???
[12:40] <lupine_85> actually, now I think about it don't dvd-r discs need a different burn type?
[12:40] <lupine_85> k3b does it automagically, at any rate
[12:40] <drew> hmm its not letting me click the reformat button
[12:40] <jarodl> Jack_Sparrow: Is there no way to burn an iso to DVD -R?
[12:40] <alef0> Ghost_Printer: well, skge is screwed for me since the last update (kernel panic on boot). *sigh*

[12:51] <drew> terlmann in disk it is grayed out
[12:51] <ubuntuer> Jack_Sparrow, integrated on my mboard.  I'm trying to change it down from 1280x1024 to 800x600
[12:51] <terlmann> yea.. is it still your current disk the one you are working from?
[12:51] <flamesrock> guys, can I easily update from edgy eft RC to final? Because I prefer bleeding edge..??
[12:52] <Jack_Sparrow> ubuntuer:  What video drivers do you have installed, how did you install them?  Can you post your xorg.conf to the pastebin
[12:52] <Quaggo> is there anyone that can help me with terminal login commands??
[12:52] <scunizi> Where's a good channel for Evolution help?  ... Here?
[12:53] <jmichaelx> is anyone in here familiar with the netgear wg511 v2 PCMCIA wireless card?
[12:53] <terlmann> no
[12:53] <ubuntuer> Jack_Sparrow, /usr/lib/xorg/modules/drivers/vesa_drv.so -- didn't do a separate install, just took defaults
[12:54] <kristjin> Okay, I have googled, and I have read the manual, so I am here, now, thanks in advance for any help anyone can offer.  I presently have a 160GB SATA and a 200GB SATA in my machine, which as of about ten minutes ago finally has Linux installed as the only OS.
[12:54] <azureal> hi, is it strange for my sound to suddenly stop working?
[12:54] <vorbote> scunizi: irc.gnome.org
[12:54] <nownott> can someone send me there fstab min is fubr and i dont know how to rewrite one so i want a sample to go bt
[12:54] <nownott> *by
[12:54] <terlmann> ubuntu cheese crackers are  best with a slice of ethernet..
[12:54] <scunizi> verbote:  thanks
[12:54] <drew> terlmann umm u think you could help me by vnc'ing or rooting into my box?
[12:54] <overshard> what performance gains are there in using reiserfs over ext3?
[12:55] <azureal> fstab is unique
[12:55] <Jack_Sparrow> ubuntuer: Ok...  Grub Boot Options "E" at the prompt   xdrvr=vesa xres=800x600
[12:55] <terlmann> mabye-what do you mean?
[12:55] <nownott> i know but i can edit the swap and boot paritions
[12:55] <nownott> to my setup
[12:55] <kristjin> What I want to do is set up the 160 and 200 under a RAID 1 array, with the remaining 40GB of the 200GB drive partitioned off for the explicit purpose of running Windows when necessary.
[12:55] <drew> terlmann the partition Im going nuts its not letting me unmount it
[12:55] <terlmann> i'd have to do it graphically i dont use the prompt
[12:55] <terlmann> hold one
[12:56] <drew> terlmann ok let me set up a vnc server
[12:56] <Jack_Sparrow> !raid > kristjin
[12:56] <kristjin> I presently have a *lot* of data on my drive I want to keep, so I can't lose the data when setting up the RAID.
[12:57] <kristjin> And it would be inefficient to backup to DVDs.
[12:57] <nownott> can someone send me there fstab min is fubr and i dont know how to rewrite one so i want a sample to go by
[12:57] <terlmann> drew? vnc?
[12:57] <Jack_Sparrow> kristjin: You are not going to be able to have raid windows and raid ubuntu on same system
 is your /opt dir full of stuff
[12:57] <drew> terlmann yupp
[12:57] <kristjin> I don't want to raid the Windows.
[12:57] <terlmann> there you will have to help me....
[12:57] <Jack_Sparrow> Paddy_EIRE: full path to /opt   ?
[12:57] <kristjin> The Windows will be like a wart on the side of my system.
[12:57] <Paddy_EIRE> thats it "/opt"
[12:58] <kristjin> A 40 Gigabyte wart.
[12:58] <ep_> I prefer mplayer to gstreamer or xine. Is there a package for the firefox-mplayer streaming media plugin?  They've got mplayer packages in multiverse.
[12:58] <drew> I think Im gonna go into slax then and do this
[12:58] <terlmann> i am a newb myself,but have tinkered many times with many distros... so some troubleshooting stuff i am the best at...
[12:58] <Jack_Sparrow> kristjin: so a seperate drive for your windows system?
 if this works for u give me a shout
[12:58] <kristjin> Just a separate partition.
[12:59] <drew> terlmann Im a newb also , and have messed with some distros but Im also a teenager so I get bi-polar sometimes
[12:59] <kristjin> I want to Raid 160 GB (Which is all I can raid anyway - ruled by the lowest size drive) and then use the remaining 40GB to run Windows - on a separate partition, as if it were its own drive.
[12:59] <azureal> Paddy_EIRE, after messing w/ those CDs earlier, i suddenly lost my sound
[12:59] <terlmann> i am 18, go to apps _acc. and gimme a screenshot...
 your kidding
[01:00] <azureal> nope
[01:00] <Jack_Sparrow> kristjin: Never seen it done...
[01:00] <azureal> mplayer or xine must have done some shit
[01:00] <ubuntuer> Jack_Sparrow, you mean its supposed to crach when you change on the fly?  I actually have a need to swith my res. from time to time but don't want to reboot for it
[01:00] <kornflak> hello
[01:00] <azureal> Paddy_EIRE, restart --> no sound..
[01:00] <kristjin> Hmmm..
[01:00] <kornflak> I am trying to get a DVD movie to play within Ubuntu
[01:00] <kornflak> any recommendation?
 what did you do, did u try logging in with the default gnome setting
[01:01] <kornflak> I've looked at multple forums
[01:01] <kristjin> Well, if someone is going to raid 1 a pair of drives, and one is larger than the other, what happens to the extra space?
[01:01] <jpjacobs> kornflak, do you have libdvdcss2?
[01:01] <kornflak> yup
[01:01] <DonL> kornflak, You looked at the Ubuntu Restricted Formats page?
[01:01] <terlmann> azureal go to the ubuntu how-to's
[01:01] <stealg> where can i found the last pakage for ubuntu ??
[01:01] <kornflak> I've download it...
[01:01] <azureal> fluxbox.
[01:01] <Jack_Sparrow> kristjin: Start by reading the raid link I posted for you earlier.
[01:02] <stealg> fluxbox rules ;)
[01:02] <kristjin> Oh, sorry, I missed that.
 oh you said you issued a whole load of kill commands before hand, maybe you've stopped a service or 2
[01:02] <jpjacobs> night people!
[01:02] <kristjin> I'll scroll back.
[01:02] <Paddy_EIRE> or 3
[01:02] <kornflak> but for some reason...
[01:02] <lupine_85> Yoni, hehe
[01:02] <kornflak> it just doesn't work
[01:02] <Jack_Sparrow> ubuntuer: It should change without restarting..
[01:02] <azureal> Paddy_EIRE, why didnt it work on restart, though?!
[01:02] <terlmann> no paddy, it has happend to me too.
[01:02] <terlmann> hold one
[01:02] <Quaggo> can someone tell me where I can find help with booting the live cd using the terminal?
[01:02] <lupine_85> erm, ignore me
[01:02] <azureal> Paddy_EIRE, i'm considering restarting in 2.6.15 (recovery mode) or compiling 2.6.17
[01:02] <kristjin> Oh...
[01:02] <kristjin> ehm.
[01:02] <kristjin> Got it.
i think gnome saves session details by default although im not sure
[01:02] <kristjin> *blink*
[01:03] <azureal> Paddy_EIRE, fluxbox.
[01:03] <DonL> kornflak, I followed it to the letter and chose the Totem-Xine setup. Works well for me
[01:03] <kristjin> This client is rather... silent and non-notifying of events.
[01:03] <drew> terlmann http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v447/npg/Screenshot-2.png
oh, well maybe putting a diff kernel in would solve it
[01:03] <overshard> does ubuntu not support logical volume grouping?
[01:03] <azureal> Paddy_EIRE, you don't happen to know any file where i can change some line or something ? lol
 im thinking, what processor u got
[01:03] <kornflak> DonL, I've been trying to get it to work with LibreadDVD3
[01:03] <Paddy_EIRE> lol
[01:04] <terlmann> hold on azureal !
[01:04] <azureal> pentium-m
[01:04] <terlmann> hold one!
[01:04] <azureal> about to search ubuntu forums terlmann

[01:04] <terlmann> http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=205449&highlight=sound+ac%2797
[01:04] <terlmann> go here
[01:04] <kornflak> DonL, I think that I am going to have to try something different.  Do you have the reference URL to the Totem-Zine setup?
[01:05] <DonL> I can find it. Just a sec
 try doing as you said with the kernel i cant see that going wrong..
[01:05] <azureal> omg terlmann , that is hardcore
[01:05] <terlmann> sudo apt-get --purge remove linux-sound-base alsa-base alsa-utils  then sudo apt-get install linux-sound-base alsa-base alsa-utils  gdm ubuntu-desktop
[01:05] <kornflak> DonL, thanks... I will be very helpful for me...
[01:05] <terlmann> just do the above
[01:05] <zenmonk> can the livecd be used to access windows partitions?
[01:05] <kornflak> DonL, correction: it will be very helpful

[01:05] <FluxD> hello in software properties does the check mean enabled or disablled
[01:05] <terlmann> and then reboot
[01:06] <kristjin> Yeah, no, this raid hasn't yet been created.
[01:06] <azureal> terlmann, why install gdm and ubuntu-desktop?!
[01:06] <azureal> dont i already have those
[01:06] <terlmann> bucause the remove of asla takes it too

[01:07] <Who_> can someone help me make a perl expression to use with rename that will add .png to the end of a load of filnames?
[01:08] <flamesrock> does anyone know about usenet that can help me?
[01:08] <terlmann> no
[01:08] <DonL> kornflak, did you scroll to the top of the page?
[01:08] <SteveFTW> how do i fix this?
[01:08] <kpin> whoever in here said......that XGL and compiz is not stable yet was right. I got 75% of the way there.....and shit went bad
[01:08] <SteveFTW> configure:2672: error: no acceptable C compiler found in $PATH
[01:08] <SteveFTW> See `config.log' for more details.
[01:08] <apokryphos> SteveFTW: please read the FAQ
[01:08] <kpin> and I read up on it so much
[01:08] <SteveFTW> which one
[01:08] <maikol> is there a way to print out ones video card info
[01:08] <terlmann> steve install gcc
[01:09] <kpin> drivers for my video card ....installing xgl went fine
[01:09] <apokryphos> SteveFTW: the one in the topic
[01:09] <SteveFTW> thanks terlmann
[01:09] <kpin> but compiz is not stable
[01:09] <apokryphos> SteveFTW: you'll have to do more than just that
[01:09] <kpin> YET
[01:09] <ikonia> does ubuntu's grub package have the splash image patch ?
[01:09] <ba> anyone aware of any canadian irc channels on this server?
[01:09] <terlmann> no
[01:09] <flo_> how to combine && and || in a if statement?
[01:09] <terlmann> ubuntu is worlwide
[01:09] <kornflak> DonL, yes- at the top of page it states, "Comprehensive Sound Problem Solutions"
[01:09] <azureal> btw, terlmann, i only need to put in the 2nd step, not 3rd
[01:09] <azureal> ubuntu-desktop is huge
[01:10] <azureal> note: i have pretty much purged gnome
[01:10] <Jack_Sparrow> !usplash
[01:10] <ubotu> usplash is the start-up splash (before GNOME/KDE appears) in Ubuntu. To customize it, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/USplashCustomizationHowto
[01:10] <ikonia> Jack_Sparrow: thanks, but I mean the grub splash
[01:10] <Jack_Sparrow> !splash
[01:10] <ubotu> To change the Gnome splash screen, open the gconf-editor and change the key /apps/gnome-session/options/splash-image.
[01:10] <ikonia> not startup/boot splash
[01:10] <terlmann> yea... follow the instructions to the letter or fail
[01:10] <ikonia> or gnome splash
[01:10] <DonL> kornflak, that's strange. Do a goole search for "Ubuntu restricted formats" and you should find it. When you get there, just follow what it says.
[01:11] <flo_> how can i make something like this work? if [ expr1 ]  && [ expr2]  || [expr3]  && [expr4]
[01:11] <Jack_Sparrow> Actual grub screen is much harder
[01:11] <ikonia> grubs easy if grub has the boot splash patch applied at build time
[01:11] <Jack_Sparrow> HAte to say google grub but that is where I found it before
[01:11] <ikonia> just curious to if grub has the grub-boot-splash patch applied to the ubuntu package
[01:11] <ubuntuer> Jack_Sparrow, that's the problem.  I go to preferences, screen resolution and change it then boom! my session is finished and I'm back to the login screen
[01:12] <azureal> ooh, yea, i think you can only change grub colors at this pt
[01:12] <terlmann> ubuntuer upgrade to a newer ubuntu version like 5.10
[01:13] <kornflak> does anyone have any recommendation for an AntiVirus Solution for Ubuntu?  any known issues with ClamAV?
[01:13] <terlmann> no and yes
[01:13] <digitalhav0c> what is the c++ compiler
[01:13] <digitalhav0c> ?
[01:13] <terlmann> gcc
[01:13] <digitalhav0c> which is the c++ compiler
[01:13] <terlmann> gcc
[01:14] <digitalhav0c> im getting errors compiling a program
[01:14] <digitalhav0c> hum?
[01:14] <terlmann> make make-install packedges
[01:14] <terlmann> then di it
[01:14] <terlmann> do
[01:14] <azureal> digitalhav0c, you're following program directions (INSTALL file)
[01:14] <ikonia> Jack_Sparrow: in ubuntu repo there is a grub-bootsplash pacakge
[01:14] <ikonia> sorry for wasting time
[01:14] <ikonia> missed it
[01:14] <ikonia> first time around
[01:15] <terlmann> yea doo it but first get make make-install and gcc
[01:15] <terlmann> automatix rocks!!
[01:16] <digitalhav0c> its just a hello world program
[01:16] <digitalhav0c> gcc hello.cpp
[01:16] <terlmann> yea...
[01:16] <kornflak> Any recommendations for an Anti-Virus solution?
[01:16] <alex222> i got a question
[01:17] <alex222> i need a good program for writing code, somthing with syntax highlighting
[01:17] <ShadowNinja> what do u guys use for sources in edgy?
[01:17] <alex222> i need a text editor with syntax highliting
[01:17] <alex222> what's the best?
[01:17] <terlmann> deb-src
[01:17] <erUSUL> kornflak: do you need to filter mail for windows machines? Becose linux does not need antivirus
[01:17] <terlmann> alex try gedit
[01:17] <erUSUL> alex222: emacs ;)
[01:17] <alex222> does gedit have highliting?
[01:17] <alex222> for PHP, mysql,html
[01:17] <terlmann> yes
[01:17] <ShadowNinja> will someone email.....their edgy sources list?
[01:17] <terlmann> and it is a gui app
[01:18] <erUSUL> ShadowNinja: #ubuntu+1
[01:18] <terlmann> emacs is (i thick) command line
[01:18] <ShadowNinja> i need one with wine and codecs
[01:18] <erUSUL> terlmann: has both
[01:18] <azureal> alex222, i'd say vi
[01:18] <azureal> vi or vim
[01:18] <kornflak> erUSUL: mainly an Anti-Virus solution to prevent virus' from spreading through a linux machine and infecting Windows machines
[01:18] <terlmann> gedit
[01:18] <azureal> vim takes some getting used to, i'd warn you
[01:19] <stealg> where r the unestable pakage of ubuntu ?
[01:19] <terlmann> azureal have you fixed the sound issues yet?
[01:19] <simtower> u
[01:20] <kornflak> erUSUL: I know that linux doesn't need an AV solution but I just don't want my Ubuntu machine spreading viruses to Windows machines
[01:20] <Scunizi> anyone have experience importing Outlook contacts via thunderbird to evolution? I'm not getting the addresses!
[01:20] <terlmann> use import from file
[01:21] <terlmann> on linux the issue of imports is file based.
[01:21] <Scunizi> terlmann: did that. Got most of the info. it just doesn't bring in the actual house number and street name
[01:22] <terlmann> hm linux cant do eaverything yet
[01:22] <yarddog> pretty close :P
[01:23] <Scunizi> terlmann: tried from a google export and evol froze on import
[01:23] <terlmann> nononono
[01:23] <terlmann> save the file on desktop
[01:23] <terlmann> import frome same
[01:23] <Scunizi> terlmann: yep been there, done that...
[01:23] <terlmann> and dont use evol, use thunderbird!
[01:24] <Scunizi> terlmann: what to use for calendar app... I like the integration.
[01:24] <mrbrdo> which package to make FLASH work in Firefox?
[01:24] <ep> it can't steal elections like the OS
[01:24] <ep> diebold:)
[01:25] <ScornInPC> hi all
[01:25] <apokryphos> mrbrdo: please read the FAQ
[01:25] <mrbrdo> flashplayer-mozilla or flashplugin-nonfree? which one is right for firefox?
[01:25] <mrbrdo> oh
[01:25] <ScornInPC> i need to know, how to watch wmv videos
[01:25] <mrbrdo> can't u just tell me since i asked already
[01:25] <apokryphos> mrbrdo: you shouldn't expect others to help if you won't help yourself, really
[01:26] <cafuego> !RestrictedFormats > ScornInPC
[01:26] <Crippy-Boy> ScornInPC win32codecs, Google or search the wiki
[01:26] <Scunizi> ScornInPc: gstreamer plugins ugly 10.. If I remember correctly ... from Synaptic
[01:26] <mrbrdo> apokryphos: heh whatever,if you knew u could have said
[01:26] <cafuego> ScornInPC: ubotu should have just given you some info and a wiki page link.
[01:26] <ScornInPC> tanks
[01:27] <erUSUL> mrbrdo: flashplugin-nonfree
[01:28] <Polygon> ok i need to restore grub tot he mbr. I have two hard drives, with ubuntu and windows. Windows is listed as (hd0,1) and Ubuntu is listed as (hd1,0). Which one do i need to reinstall grub to?
[01:28] <rukuartic> So does anyone know quite how firestarter works? Yep--it appears to be working, but when I start a program up (for instance, GAIM or Firefox) does it open up certain ports for inbound traffic? What if I started a service such as OpenSSH?
[01:28] <apokryphos> Polygon: the ubuntu one, and you should set your BIOS to boot from that HD first
[01:29] <erUSUL> !grub > Polygon
[01:29] <Polygon> ok ill try that...
[01:30] <Polygon> if i tell the bios to boot from the ubuntu drive first, i will still be able to boot into windows correct
[01:30] <Polygon> without editing anything in menu.lst
[01:30] <apokryphos> Polygon: if your grub settings are set up properly (see the FAQ)
[01:30] <Polygon> ok
[01:31] <Polygon> thx
[01:32] <mrbrdo> if i have a patch for a kernel module (bcm43xx), how would i be able to apply it? i don't have any kernel sources yet on my pc
[01:33] <cafuego> mrbrdo: Does the normal bcm43xx in the standard kernel not work?
[01:33] <mrbrdo> cafuego: it does to one extent
[01:33] <mrbrdo> cafuego: a patch is needed for it to work with aircrack
[01:33] <wastrel> ubunto
[01:34] <cafuego> mrbrdo: Ah, you will need to grab the kernel soruce then and see if patch -p1 --dry-run < patch_file works.
[01:34] <gpgarrettboast> Jack_Sparrow, no luck with that link...
[01:34] <mrbrdo> cafuego: will i need to recompile the kernel then, or only the module?
[01:35] <cafuego> mrbrdo: Probably just the module.
[01:36] <Ghost_Printer> are the Ubuntu repos hosed again ?
[01:37] <gpgarrettboast> Can anyone help me get my Broadcom 802.11b/g Wireless adapter working in Ubuntu? It's a 64-bit system, and the wireless card is integrated through a pciexpress bus.
[01:37] <favicon> #energy forum
[01:37] <Ghost_Printer> Can't get Flash player to install
[01:37] <gpgarrettboast> I've tried ndiswrapper, linuxant driverloader, and the bcm43xx drivers....
[01:39] <Meglo> How would I go about listing the running processes and their PIDS in a tree format in terminal?
[01:39] <gpgarrettboast> ps -a?
[01:39] <Meglo> eh, I have tried many, second
[01:40] <Meglo> It doesn't return much of anything
[01:40] <EnsignRedshirt> Meglo: Take a look at pstree
[01:40] <grub4ever> Hmm, how can I remove lilo from my system and replace it with grub?
[01:40] <Meglo> Thank EnsignRedshirt
[01:40] <Meglo> s*
[01:40] <krups> meglo - try top.
[01:41] <mrbrdo> who was helping me with kernel module patching be4?
[01:41] <inglor> I need a little help, is there any way to autoscroll in linux?
[01:41] <mrbrdo> had a "crash", kind of
[01:42] <grub4ever> I really want to get rid of lilo.
[01:42] <cynical> does anyone know an xchat2 script that displays system info?
[01:42] <inglor> autoscrolling is what happens when you click the middle mouse button in let's say firefox, then you can move the mouse up or down and it causes the page to scroll, is there any way to do that in linux?
[01:43] <gabriel> what mouse are you using, inglor?
[01:43] <inglor> just regard it as a generic mouse
[01:43] <inglor> I either use the asus cordless one that comes with my laptop, my generic SmartCom one, or my G5
[01:44] <inglor> depending on what I need to do, it shouldn't matter though since autoscrolling doesn't have to do with the mouse model as far as I know
[01:45] <mario> tururu
[01:45] <inglor> nevermind, I found it in firefox, I guess that'll do for now, although I'd like to know how to do it in an OS level
[01:45] <__mikem> what does tururu mean
[01:45] <sethk> inglor, it's a feature of the program (in this case firefox), not the o/s or windowing system
[01:46] <sethk> inglor, so there is nothing additional to find
[01:46] <cynical> grub4ever: Uninstall lilo, install grub, and follow this guide http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=224351
[01:47] <inglor> ok

[01:51] <kim_> the monitor is on 61 Hz    its driving me crazy
[01:52] <largos> what are you usingnow? svga?
[01:53] <kim_> well.. ubuntu knows which card it is.... 661/741/760/761 PCI/AGP VGA Display Adapter   but somehow to pc is running slower as it just to run with windows.. and it also used to be 85 Hz
[01:54] <mad_man> inglor: also clicking the left and right (dual-clicking) does the same as middle clicking for autoscrolling
[01:54] <largos> you can probably up the refresh rate by changing the vert. refresh and hsync in your /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[01:55] <imc_> Hi, sound problems with Dapper. I had to use an ALSA mixer with this machine when it was in Breezy. Now I dist-upgraded to Dapper and sound is broken. Help?
[01:55] <kim_> okay   just wait a minute please..
[01:55] <terlmann> ojey i will giude you through the fix'
[01:55] <terlmann> okey
[01:56] <cronos3> is there a way to send a message to gnome screen ?
[01:56] <cronos3> like a popup message
[01:56] <inglor> hey, quick question, I've installed ubuntu, can I run KDE or do I have to completely format and install kubuntu?
[01:56] <imc_> inglor, you can run either
[01:57] <inglor> how?
[01:57] <imc_> apt-get install K and then at the session login you can choose from those or any you like
[01:57] <largos> imc_: oh.. that's a common problem -- if you search the forums you should be able to find it
[01:57] <inglor> what package name does it have?
[01:57] <imc_> largos, thanks, I just couldn't find it
[01:57] <imc_> inglor, apt-cache search kde and see what happens
[01:57] <largos> imc_: sorry I don't have the link or solution off hand :(
[01:57] <imc_> no worries, thanks largos
[01:57] <effer> hi all...i've never had any problem copying/removing any files from my SD memory card using my card reader...but now i have to delete some files, and all the sudden it's saying that i cannot remove the files because the sd card is a read-only filesystem....how do i change this?  it's never happened before.
[01:57] <inglor> what package?
[01:58] <hantu> aptcache search kdebase
[01:58] <inglor> !kde
[01:58] <ubotu> KDE (http://kde.org) is the K Desktop Environment. To install from Ubuntu: sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop, or see http://help.ubuntu.com/community/InstallingKDE for other ways to get KDE
[01:58] <inglor> yay :)
[01:58] <inglor> I love ubotu
[01:59] <mad_man> inglor:just for fun the First Computer Mouse | http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image:First_Computer_Mouse_pic_2.jpg
[01:59] <hantu> heh no wonder i can't find the package
[01:59] <mrbrdo> where are the kernel sources after u install linux-sources?
[01:59] <hantu> spelled it as kbuntu =\
[01:59] <terlmann> imc_  use the following script :  sudo apt-get --purge remove linux-sound-base alsa-base alsa-utils && sudo apt-get install linux-sound-base alsa-base alsa-utils gdm ubuntu-desktop
[01:59] <Polygon> ok im getting kinda mad with grub at the moment. i installed grub to my ubuntu drive, and i tried to set my bios to boot from my ubuntu drive, but there are 4 options in my bios: hdd-0 hdd-1 hdd-2 and hdd-3. no matter which one i choose to boot third (after floppy and cdrom) they all boot windows.  So.... im wanting to install grub to my windows disk's mbr, but it keeps saying "error 15: file not found"
[01:59] <inglor> LOL, that's an actual mouse?
[02:00] <cronos3> is there a way to send a popup message to gnome screen?
[02:00] <NuclearWaffle> Anyone know how to take a screenshot in Ubuntu?  o.o
[02:00] <Polygon> printscrn?
[02:00] <Polygon> on the keyboard?
[02:00] <terlmann> yea apps /acc take screenshot
[02:00] <inglor> kubuntu-desktop:
[02:00] <inglor>  Depends: language-selector-qt but it is not going to be installed
[02:00] <mrbrdo> what about make movie?
[02:00] <NuclearWaffle> So is that "apps /acc take screenshot"?
[02:00] <terlmann> applications/accsesorys
[02:00] <NuclearWaffle> Oh.
[02:00] <terlmann> menu command
[02:01] <NuclearWaffle> I'm not using GNOME.
[02:01] <terlmann> then good luck
[02:01] <kim_> largos: yuhu  found it..   what should be the new values?? HorizSync 28-51   VertRefresh 43-60
[02:01] <NuclearWaffle> Oh come on, there has to be a terminal command or something...
[02:01] <EnsignRedshirt> NuclearWaffle: gnome-screenshot (or something like that)
[02:02] <Polygon> does print screen on keyboard not work for kde or whatever?
[02:02] <NuclearWaffle> Ensign:  Didn't work...
[02:02] <Polygon> thats for gnome... if your not using it it wont work
[02:02] <terlmann> he ismt using gnome..
[02:02] <terlmann> is not
[02:03] <NuclearWaffle> Yeah.  Fluxbox.
[02:03] <effer> hi all...i've never had any problem copying/removing any files from my SD memory card using my card reader...but now i have to delete some files, and all the sudden it's saying that i cannot remove the files because the sd card is a read-only filesystem....how do i change this?  it's never happened before.
[02:03] <EnsignRedshirt> NuclearWaffle: Or, use gimp: File-> Acquire -> Screenshot
[02:03] <NuclearWaffle> Oh.  OK.
[02:03] <Polygon> anyways,
[02:03] <terlmann> flux box will work even if you install the ubuntu packdge
[02:03] <Polygon> i need help reinstalling grub to wherever so i can boot into ubuntu again
[02:04] <terlmann> install the gnome stuff and acsess from flux box
[02:04] <kim_> largos: yuhu  found it..   what should be the new values?? HorizSync 28-51   VertRefresh 43-60
[02:05] <Audimage> hello
[02:05] <GTroy> my audio sounds TERRIBLE....
[02:05] <inglor> !xfce
[02:05] <ubotu> Xubuntu is Ubuntu with XFCE, for more info, see http://www.xubuntu.org. To install from Ubuntu: sudo apt-get install xubuntu-desktop
[02:05] <Scunizi> Polygon: I can't give you a blow by blow description but I've done it with the alternate cd without having to reinstall everything.
[02:05] <Polygon> yes, that would be good
[02:05] <NuclearWaffle> Thanks ensign.
[02:05] <GTroy> is there a way to fix *bad* audio?
[02:05] <Polygon> i tried that before, and succeeded once but screwed up my partition table another time
[02:05] <Audimage> I am unable to install UT2004, when i double-click linux-installer.sh nothing happens
[02:06] <NuclearWaffle> terlmann:  I'd rather not bulk up my system with gnome.  >.>
[02:06] <Polygon> will your method work with a 5.10 alternate cd?
[02:06] <GTroy> switching from alsa to oss doesn't seem to help
[02:06] <inglor> I only got it to install KDE-base, would that be a problem?
[02:06] <bean-oh> !proxy
[02:06] <mrbrdo> where are the LINUX SOURCES extracted after aptgeting linux-sources?
[02:06] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about proxy - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[02:07] <Scunizi> Polygon:  Been there myself.. You're not suppose to change anything and at one point backing up a step then telling the installer just to install grub
[02:07] <Fingertips> hello!
[02:07] <bean-oh> anyone know anything about setting up a system-wide proxy connection?
[02:07] <Audimage> I am trying to install Unreal Tournament 2004 from the Editor's Choice Edition DVDs, when i double-click on linux-installer.sh in the cd nothing happens...there is no readme
[02:07] <Audimage> either
[02:07] <mrbrdo> come on!! surely u know
[02:08] <Polygon> do you know which point?
[02:08] <Fingertips> Audimage: copy the sh file to your desktop then run
[02:08] <Polygon> i know your suppost to mount
[02:08] <Polygon> your root/swap and boot partitons
[02:08] <inglor> system-administration-network proxy
[02:08] <Audimage> fingertips: i tried that, and the onlt thing that happens is the terminal window opens...nothing else
[02:08] <Polygon> is it after that that you can just go isntall grub?
[02:08] <Fingertips> Audimage: open console
[02:09] <Scunizi> Polygon: sorry. I found it in the forums months ago.  Not much help for you.. sorry.
[02:09] <Fingertips> type sh, then drag the sh file into your terminal
[02:09] <Audimage> alright
[02:09] <Polygon> ill try it and if i have questions ill ask
[02:09] <effer> hi all...i've never had any problem copying/removing any files from my SD memory card using my card reader...but now i have to delete some files, and all the sudden it's saying that i cannot remove the files because the sd card is a read-only filesystem....how do i change this?  it's never happened before.
[02:09] <bean-oh> inglor, but what about the other end? the server offering the proxy?
[02:09] <lastnode> guys i need a voip client that supports video and has working clients for both ubuntu and windows. any ideas?
[02:09] <mrbrdo> where are the KERNEL SOURCES extracted after aptgeting linux-sources?
[02:09] <Audimage> fingertips: sh <space> drag the installer, or sh <enter>
[02:10] <lastnode> mrbrdo, /usr/src ?
[02:10] <jrib> mrbrdo: they aren't extracted, it's a tar.bz2
[02:10] <Crippy-Boy> Audimage, Just cd to where the sh is then run sh name.sh
[02:11] <Audimage> the only thing that happens is a terminal window opens up in root
[02:11] <GTroy> how do I use alsamixer to select the appropriate audio card/
[02:11] <GTroy> ?
[02:11] <kim_> does anybody know something about screen frequency rates????   i want to increase it   (have 61 Hz   HEADACHE)     im in the xorg.conf right now, but i dont know what values i should choose...
[02:12] <Audimage> it is working now, thanks crippy-boy
[02:12] <Netslayer> is there a site i can check the ubuntu packages at on the web? like i know gentoo-portage.com
[02:12] <Scunizi> lastnode:  ekiga
[02:13] <Crippy-Boy> http://packages.ubuntu.com
[02:13] <lastnode> Scunizi, ekiga win32? :s
[02:13] <LKRaider> Meet Mhir http://www.romlist.com/mahir/
[02:13] <Scunizi> lastnode: Let me double check.  I'm pretty sure.
[02:13] <largos> kim_: you need to find the correct ranges for your monitor
[02:13] <Fingertips> i am having problems, after installing UT2004, the permissions are all in root, i need to be able to edit the ut2004 folder from my user... how do i change permissions
[02:13] <altersense> btw, in re to Ekiga, anyone using the 2.02 pkgs?
[02:14] <lastnode> Scunizi, the win32 client is in early alpha still no?
[02:14] <Fingertips> !permissions
[02:14] <ubotu> The files and directories on an Ubuntu system are organized according to a standard, see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Filesystem_Hierarchy_Standard - file permissions are explained at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FilePermissions - All filenames and directory names (and many other things) are case sensitive in Linux
[02:14] <largos> kim_: and set the v.refresh / h sync to those numbers
[02:14] <cafuego> Netslayer: of course, using synaptic locally is a bit faster.
[02:14] <Scunizi> lastnode:  Check out http://snapshots.voxgratia.org/win32.php it's the ekiga site
[02:14] <kim_> umm..  and how?   :-D
[02:15] <Netslayer> where can i get mythtv ubuntu 20 sources?
[02:15] <Netslayer> 18 is the only version available on multiverse
[02:15] <Scunizi> lastnode: I'm new to Irc.  How'd you change your color
[02:15] <lastnode> Scunizi, have you got it installed? even on ubuntu? can you connect to me?
[02:15] <isoss> Hey guys.
[02:15] <Crippy-Boy> Scunizi: that depends on client.
[02:16] <Scunizi> xchat
[02:16] <isoss> how can I unmount a ftp or ssh folder in KDE ?
[02:16] <lastnode> Scunizi, ive never tried really. apt-cache search xchat themes?
[02:16] <altersense> ioss: #kubuntu
[02:16] <kim_> well.. i used to have 85 Hz..    you dont happen to know what the fitting range for that is do you?  (sorry if im being annoying)
[02:16] <lastnode> can someone try an ekiga webcam chat with me please?
[02:16] <Scunizi> lastnode: I've got it installed on ubuntu. It's standard (i think) works great.  My cam though, doesn't function on ubuntu.
[02:17] <isoss> so this challen is for Gnome altersemse?
[02:17] <Crippy-Boy> Scunizi: Settings > Prefs > Colors
[02:17] <kim_> largos: well.. i used to have 85 Hz..    you dont happen to know what the fitting range for that is do you?  (sorry if im being annoying)
[02:17] <lastnode> Scunizi, how do i call you?
[02:17] <altersense> isoss, thought it was for the def #ubuntu dist, which does come with gnome, please correct me if I'm wrong
[02:18] <exs> Why doesn't anyone know how to use ubuntu as a passthrough, so I am able to use the internet with my windows desktop machine Through a ubuntu laptop?
[02:19] <isoss> altersense: I think I must find the answer here also cuz many ppl use both gnome and kde for ubuntu
[02:19] <isoss> in ubuntuforums.org you can ask about either
[02:19] <printk> exs - check this out: ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=217177
[02:19] <altersense> isoss: have you tried from the terminal, using unmount ?
[02:19] <exs> printk:  ok thanks
[02:20] <GTroy> did a alsactl restore... and it was fixed... go figure
[02:20] <kim_> o man.. im tired..  its 2 a.m. now and i have to go to school in 4 hours, so id better hurry to bed....  thanks anyway..   bye :)
[02:20] <altersense> isoss: from the terminal, issue mount, check if your ftp shows there
[02:20] <isoss> I am just not sure what is the path! the folders are in the remote places,
[02:21] <printk> isoss: what do you mean umount a ftp or ssh folder in kde?  First off they are directories in linux and you can just use a terminal and use the umount(1) command
[02:21] <sess> greetings!
[02:21] <altersense> printk, kde can map mount points to ftp
[02:21] <sess> Im a new ubuntu user, need a lil help with my wireless if you would
[02:21] <isoss> yup sure it's the way to do that but as I said printh I don't know the path
[02:21] <printk> isoss - type mount by itself it'll show you everything mounted
[02:22] <isoss> in gnome you could just right click and unmount
[02:22] <exs> printk:  didn't seem to help.. it's just a guy asking a question, and it isn't answered.
[02:22] <altersense> isoss:  type "mount", it will show you all your mount points
[02:22] <Crippy-Boy> sess: whats wrong with it?
[02:22] <isoss> oh ok
[02:22] <sess> crippy: nothing, I just can't get it working.  Ubuntu already seems to have detected my wireless and loaded the module
[02:22] <Fingertips_> how do i chmod something so that the folder and ALL OF ITS CONTENTS gets the same chmod???
[02:22] <Madpilot> Fingertips, +R
[02:23] <sess> however, when I put my essid into the wireless app and hit activate, It says disconnected after about 30 seconds, and I get no activity or connection
[02:23] <printk> exs: i;m just googling... try it yourself.  Check this out then: http://digg.com/linux_unix/How_to_Setup_Your_ubuntu_Computer_to_be_a_Router
[02:23] <sess> I put in the correct wep key, I hope that the fact that the access point isn't broadcasted isn't a problem
[02:24] <sess> I tried manually dhclient eth1, but it says network down
[02:24] <isoss> altersense, printh: I just need a litle help here! in remote places I have two folders, one is called www and the other is called website but none is displayed as mounted in mount command output
[02:24] <sess> and I try ifconfig eth1 up, no such file or directory
[02:24] <Fingertips_> has anybody here been able to sucessfully set up an ATI x800 pro ... for some reason my FGLRX drivers wont allow me to bump up to native resolution
[02:24] <jrib> Fingertips_: -R or --recursive
[02:24] <Fingertips_> yea i got it
[02:24] <isoss> note that the folders are ftp and ssh and both are not working cuz the server which they were to be connecting to was changed
[02:25] <sethk> Fingertips_, when I've seen that, what has been happening is a bit different from what you are assuming
[02:25] <sethk> Fingertips, what happens (in many cases and possibly yours') is this:
[02:25] <Plouj> there is a difference between HTTP and IPP printing protocols?
[02:25] <Plouj> I thought IPPP and HTTP were one and the same
[02:25] <sethk> Fingertips, the server decides that none of the modes in the configuration file are usable, and drops into a mode where it uses default resolution(s)
[02:25] <DrBanzai> Anybody in here ever used the cluster feature of dvd::rip?
[02:26] <sethk> Fingertips, what also can happen is that the settings for >800x600 are a bit off, and it decides that those modes are not usable
[02:26] <Fingertips_> sethk: so how do i fix this
[02:26] <Fingertips_> sethk: it wont let me go above 1024
[02:26] <sethk> Fingertips, ok, first thing to do is check the X log
[02:26] <sethk> Fingertips, can you put it on the paste web site for us?
[02:26] <sess> Anyone have any ideas on my wireless issue?  I see that eth1 has wireless extensions, so I put in my essid and wep key using the ubuntu network app.  Then when I try to connect, it fails, so I tried manually using dhclient eth1 which says network is down.  So I tried ifconfig eth1 up, and that says no such file or direcctory.  Any ideas?
[02:26] <arthomps_> trying to use gimp (gtk) in kubuntu.  it appears as black text on black background which isn't useful.  what property should i be looking at to fix it?
[02:26] <Fingertips_> sethk: yea.. what is that site again
[02:26] <sethk> Fingertips, it's usually /var/log/Xorg.0.log
[02:26] <Fingertips_> !paste
[02:26] <ubotu> pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (you can always find it in the channel topic, among other useful things)
[02:27] <arthomps_> sess - try just doing dhclient and see what happens.
[02:27] <sethk> Fingertips, ah, an old hand, already using the 'bot.  :)
[02:28] <sess> arthomps_: receive_packet failed on eth1: Network is down
[02:28] <Fingertips> sethk: i used to use fedora
[02:28] <Fingertips> sethk: thankfully linux isnt too unfamiliar
[02:28] <Fingertips> sethk: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/23820
[02:28] <Fingertips> there you go
[02:29] <edge> is there a special Chan for Kubuntu?
[02:29] <Crippy-Boy> #kubuntu?
[02:30] <Crippy-Boy> sess, You sure the wep key and essid are right?
[02:30] <Fingertips_> sethk: tell me what you think
[02:30] <Buffy^> right
[02:31] <picasso> how do i set up WPA encryption for wifi in ubuntu?
[02:31] <Buffy^> any one any ideas about getting 2 amd cps to work together in ubuntu?
[02:31] <picasso> before i upgraded to 6.06 i had a custom script that used wpa_supplicant but it doesn't seem to work any longer
[02:31] <sess> crippy-boy: the yes, the essid is not broadcast, but im certain, Im using the wired connection to confirm the settings on the router
[02:32] <THX-1138> !wep
[02:32] <ubotu> Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs
[02:32] <Fingertips_> !ati
[02:32] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[02:32] <Crippy-Boy> sess: i have no idea then never had a prob with mine, Sorry :(
[02:32] <MrKeuner> is there a way to switch to gnome 2.16 on dapper? Or should I wait for next ubuntu release?
[02:33] <surface> MrKeuner:  wait is a good option.
[02:33] <surface> (:
[02:34] <MrKeuner> surface/ I think I'll buy that
[02:34] <Fingertips> sethk: you there?
[02:34] <picasso> nm, googled my question, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/WPAHowTo
[02:34] <sethk> Fingertips, sorry, just got back
[02:35] <Fingertips> sethk: ok w hats the verdict
[02:35] <sethk> Fingertips, handling someone who is paying for support at the same time, have to look at his stuff first.  :)
[02:35] <sethk> Fingertips, give me the url again?
[02:35] <sethk> Fingertips, never mind, I scrolled up to it
[02:36] <sethk> Fingertips, that looks like only the first few lines of it.
[02:36] <Fingertips> sethk: ok
[02:36] <Captain_Redbeard> I need a hand lads... When booting from grub there is a white "frame" around the OS-options you have...? Is there a way to remove that?
[02:36] <sethk> Fingertips, but I think I already see the problem
[02:36] <sess> anything special about the broadcom 4318 card?
[02:36] <sess> Im at a loss here
[02:36] <Fingertips> sethk: ok
[02:36] <sethk> Fingertips, it says "generic monitor" which means it didn't identify your monitor
[02:37] <Fingertips_> sethk: ok what do i need to do
[02:37] <nailbags> hi, i recently started using fluxbox instead of gnome, but now when I close my laptop's lid, it doesn't suspend any more. what daemon do i need to run to make this work again?
[02:37] <DrBanzai> Anybody in here ever used the cluster feature of dvd::rip?
[02:37] <sethk> Fingertips, so, run dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg, and when you get to the monitor section, select the "middle" level, and check the resolutions that you need but are misisng
[02:37] <sethk> Fingertips, the one's your video card can do, but it thinks the monitor cannot, will be on the list but without the *
[02:38] <sethk> Fingertips, so you add the * for the lines with the resolutions you need
[02:38] <Fingertips_> ok
[02:38] <sethk> Fingertips, I'm not describing it too well but when you see it you'll know what I mean
[02:38] <Fingertips_> sethk: this is in dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg right
[02:38] <Fingertips_> sethk: i understand ive done dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg before
[02:38] <sethk> Fingertips, right, with root privileges
[02:38] <Fingertips_> so i select medium not advanced
[02:39] <Fingertips_>  sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[02:39] <Fingertips_> will that work
[02:39] <Captain_Redbeard> no one?
[02:39] <sethk> Fingertips, yes
[02:39] <Polygon> hello, i need to rescue a file off my ubuntu drive. Im having a little bit of trouble with grub, and i dont have time to fix it and i dont want to accidently format that file... so im on a live cd and i need to mount my root partiton, only problem is, its saying its already mounted or busy, but when i go to the drive in /dev, it says it cant display it
[02:40] <nailbags> Polygon, is it already mounted under /media?
[02:40] <sethk> Fingertips, Polygon it probably is already mounted.  run in the terminal the mount command (with no arguments) which will show you where it is mounted
[02:40] <surface> Polygon:  check ur mount point first
[02:40] <surface> Polygon:  type mount
[02:40] <sethk> Captain_Redbeard, sorry, don't know the answer to that one.
[02:40] <onenought> Hello. I'm having some issues with wpa_supplicant, on Dapper. Help?
[02:41] <nailbags> so can anyone help me?
[02:41] <terlmann> where do i find some spash screens to configure with the gnome splash screen manager ?
[02:41] <kitsuneofdoom> hey, I have been trying to make a 32 bit chroot on my 64 bit system
[02:41] <surface> Polygon: usually mount point is at /mnt or /media
[02:41] <MrKeuner> is it again possible to see a delay the next ubuntu release?
[02:41] <Polygon> ok one sec
[02:41] <bean-oh> is there anything i need to do besides the Network Proxy preference pane to force conenction to use th proxy? Currently it doesn't use my proxy settngs.
[02:41] <Polygon> when i type mount i dont see and hdX
[02:41] <kitsuneofdoom> I used the dchroot method, and when I try to install synaptic, it says I am missing the pango library, and some other stuff
[02:41] <Polygon> and media has nothing in the folder
[02:42] <DrBanzai> Polygon, which live cd are you using?
[02:42] <Polygon> 6.06.1
[02:42] <james_xxx> what does it mean when i get the error "could not parse the XML output from the network configuration backend", when trying to enable a network device?
[02:43] <Polygon> according to gparted, /dev/hde2 is an extended partiton and /dev/hde5 is the actual root filesystem. if i try to mount /dev/hde5 it says its busy/already mounted
[02:43] <surface> Polygon: df -h, are u sure ur hd is hde?
[02:44] <Kamping_Kaiser> or taht its not mounted already ;)
[02:44] <omar> Hello guys, Wha'ts the difference bettwen dapper and breazy, I am gonna install ubutnu in one machine , but I don0t know which one choise
[02:44] <Polygon> yes, gparted says so
[02:44] <surface> mount | grep hd
[02:44] <Kamping_Kaiser> james_xxx, where do you get that error?
[02:44] <sethk> Polygon, when you ran mount, did you look to see where /dev/hde5 is mounted?
[02:44] <Kamping_Kaiser> omar, 7 months development
[02:44] <Kamping_Kaiser> and a few years support
[02:44] <omar> which one recommend me
[02:44] <Kamping_Kaiser> dapper
[02:44] <omar> thank you
[02:44] <Kamping_Kaiser> 6.06.1
[02:44] <Kamping_Kaiser> np
[02:44] <Polygon> according to mount the only things mounted are unionfs proc /sys varrun varlock procbususb udebv devpts devshm lrm tmpfs
[02:45] <james_xxx> Kamping_Kaiser: i got that error in the network settings when trying to enable my wireless card.... and then again whenm i tried to enable my ethernet
[02:45] <omar> if I need a fst download, do I have to choose a special sever?
[02:45] <omar> no right
[02:45] <sethk> Polygon, that cannot be accurate, because you cannot be running without a root partition
[02:45] <miles800> I added a new hard drive and then added a new swap parition using the gnome parition editor.  Do I need to do anything to have the operating system start using it.  And secondly, should I delete the orginal swap parition or is linux smart enough to use the swap on the second hard drive over the swap on the same drive as the system?
[02:45] <jcapote> I plugged in a usb mass storage device into dapper, it shows up in /proc/scsi/usb-storage, but no dev node gets assigned to it, whats going on
[02:45] <sethk> Polygon, instead of telling us just part of what mount is telling you,  capture the output of mount and put it on the paste web site
[02:45] <kitsuneofdoom> I am trying to get a 32 bit chroot in dapper 64 I used the dchroot method, and when I try to install synaptic, it says I am missing the pango library, and some other stuff
[02:45] <Kamping_Kaiser> Polygon, try 'mount'
[02:45] <Zambezi> Anyone skilled on elinks/links? When I try to go to a page, it goes to a cached page. Is there anyway I can erase all cached pages and disable the cache?
[02:45] <Polygon> where is the paste website
[02:46] <sethk> Kamping_Kaiser, sixth time now someone has suggested he run mount.  presumably he did.
[02:46] <Kamping_Kaiser> miles800, not sure if it will auto use it, and it should use both
[02:46] <surface> Polygon: you may want to consider slax live cd, its consist of 200mb only, and it does auto mount all partition it can detects
[02:46] <sethk> !paste
[02:46] <ubotu> pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (you can always find it in the channel topic, among other useful things)
[02:46] <sethk> Kamping_Kaiser, although you never know.   :)
[02:46] <Kamping_Kaiser> sethk, well what did it give him as output....
[02:46] <Polygon> one sec
[02:46] <nailbags> does anyone have suspend working in a WM other than gnome/KDE?
[02:46] <nailbags> i think i need to run some daemon
[02:46] <nailbags> but i don't know what
[02:46] <onenought> Anyone good with wpa_supplicant  and ipw2200? I keep getting ioctl[IPW_IOCTL_WPA_SUPPLICANT] : Operation not supported.
[02:46] <james_xxx> Kamping_Kaiser: my wireless has been finniky, but have never had issues with my ethernet card before....
[02:46] <sethk> Kamping_Kaiser, hopefully he's putting that on the paste thing now
[02:47] <Kamping_Kaiser> sethk, yah :)

[02:47] <Kamping_Kaiser> james_xxx, only thing i can think of is your .gnome* and .gconf* databases beign corrupted
[02:47] <Kamping_Kaiser> but how i have nfi
[02:47] <picasso> hey, i just installed network-manager-gnome (to get my WPA wifi working) but the little icon just says "No network connection" .. context menu doesn't have anything about adding a connection
[02:47] <bean-oh> anyone have luck with the network proxy pane?
[02:47] <nailbags> noone can even give me a hint?
[02:47] <james_xxx> Kamping_Kaiser: in other words, i have to reinstall?
[02:47] <surface> picasso: ifconfig
[02:48] <surface> picasso: iwconfig
[02:48] <james_xxx> Kamping_Kaiser: by the way, i am in kubuntu. forgot to mention that
[02:48] <surface> picasso: u can check wether is up or not
[02:48] <terlmann> people learn the lesson: ubuntu needs ethernet to work right
[02:48] <Kamping_Kaiser> james_xxx, try reinstalling the networking tools
[02:48] <sethk> Polygon, ok, now show us the mount command you are trying, and the exact error message you receive.
[02:48] <bean-oh> picasso, probably need to edit the /etc/network/interfaces file
[02:48] <Kamping_Kaiser> terlmann, um?
[02:48] <james_xxx> Kamping_Kaiser: how do i do that with no internet access?
[02:49] <Kamping_Kaiser> james_xxx, perhaps you should ask in #kubuntu, they may have heard of this issue before
[02:49] <sethk> Polygon, it should look like this (after mkdir /mnt/hde5):    sudo mount -t ext3 /dev/hde5 /mnt/hde5
[02:49] <sethk> Polygon, that's assuming it's an ext3 file system, of course.
[02:49] <picasso> oh
[02:49] <sethk> Polygon, and /mnt/hde5 is just an arbitrary name that I chose; you can mount on any empty directory
[02:49] <Polygon> ok
[02:49] <sethk> Polygon, actually, you can mount on a directory that isn't empty also, but the results can be very confusing, so don't.  :)
[02:50] <terlmann> go to ethernet and screw the wireless "minimal clutter" idea. ethernet is reliable,fast,and definitely more simple
[02:50] <james_xxx> Kamping_Kaiser: i asked in there first , but got no response. however, i am wondering if you still might be right, because i rebooted a little while ago because gnome baker would not work
[02:50] <Polygon> yeah im mounting to an empty dir
[02:50] <Polygon> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/23824
[02:51] <Polygon>  /mnt root is empty as well
[02:51] <picasso> /etc/network/intefaces - it's got both interfaces, an old SSID from an old network tho
[02:51] <Fingertips_> sethk: my question to you... should i select ati or fglrx drivers at the first part of  sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[02:51] <picasso> but still, shouldnt i be able to go in and configuret hat somewhere?
[02:51] <Kamping_Kaiser> james_xxx, ah ok. try this (no promices) : open a terminal, type `mv .gnome* .gconf* Desktop`, log out+in and try again
[02:52] <james_xxx> Kamping_Kaiser: i will try
[02:52] <Kamping_Kaiser> Fingertips, whats your card?
[02:52] <picasso> surface: iwconfig ? how can i check if it's up
[02:52] <Fingertips_> ati radeon x800
[02:52] <Fingertips_> pro
[02:52] <Fingertips_> Kamping_Kaiser: i dont know how to add the litle * in  sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[02:52] <surface> picasso, if is up, it contains an ip
[02:52] <picasso> i want to tell it what type of WPA encryption i'm using, and the key and al
[02:52] <Fingertips_> Kamping_Kaiser: im assuming fglrx
[02:53] <surface> picasso, just type iwconfig with root
[02:53] <Kamping_Kaiser> use fglrx
[02:53] <picasso> i installed network-manager-gnome so that i could set up the WPA stuff
[02:53] <picasso> surface, that doesn't help me set it up tho
[02:53] <surface> picasso, iwlist scanning
[02:53] <picasso> eth0 is active, eth1 is inactive
[02:53] <Fingertips_> Kamping_Kaiser: still how do i add the little * next to the resolution i want in  sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg

[02:54] <surface> iwlist scanning
[02:54] <picasso> i can see my network

[02:55] <picasso> correct
[02:55] <kitsuneofdoom> I am trying to get a 32 bit chroot in dapper 64 I used the dchroot method, and when I try to install synaptic, it says I am missing quite a few things. It seems to not want to install perl

[02:56] <picasso> network manager applet doesn't give me 'add a connection' link or anything

[02:57] <surface> picasso:  strange
[02:57] <picasso> i'm talking about NetworkManager Applet 0.6.2
[02:57] <picasso> that's what you're talking about right?
[02:58] <leetcharmer> so -- any ideas how to fix my bug?
[02:58] <surface> picasso:  sorry, my ubuntu is not with me now... it should be something call gnome-network something
[02:58] <Kamping_Kaiser> leetcharmer, nope :|
[02:59] <surface> picasso:  search around other network manager, maybe u use the wrong manager, i am not sure.
[02:59] <kitsuneofdoom> anyone has any experience with making a 32 bit chroot
[02:59] <picasso> anyone else have any idea why NetworkManager applet wouldnt show my connections? (just upgraded from 5.10 to 6.06)
[02:59] <leetcharmer> d'oh :/ things started going downhill for me after Breezy.  That was able to detect all of my hardware and make it work like a charm.  it hasn't been that way since
[02:59] <leetcharmer> don't know why :/
[02:59] <onenought> surface: its network-manager-gnome
[02:59] <surface> picasso:  onenought
[02:59] <picasso> huh?
[02:59] <surface> picasso: in case u run it term, remember to put gksudo infront
[03:00] <surface> gtg
[03:00] <picasso> onenought: network-manager-gnome was the package i installed
[03:00] <picasso> but it doesnt seem to have any associated binaries in $PATH .. just the gnome applet right?
[03:00] <leetcharmer> does anyone know what I should do to get better hardware support for my laptop by Edgy launch?  I had great hardware support in Breezy ... guess I lost it :/
[03:00] <daveb> is there any way to get the uswsusp package for unbuntu?
[03:01] <nailbags> ubuntu sucks
[03:01] <daveb> its in debian unstable and afaik i have every ubuntu repos enabled.
[03:01] <onenought> picasso: that is what I have as well.
[03:02] <picasso> so the network icon dealie shows you a list w/ all your interfaces?
[03:02] <holycow> yep
[03:02] <onenought> picasso: yeah.
[03:03] <onenought> do you have any interfaces?
[03:04] <picasso> no
[03:04] <picasso> it doesnt show anything
[03:04] <picasso> "Enable Networking", (grayed out) Connection Information, about, remove

[03:08] <rspier_> fluvvell: thank you
[03:08] <fluvvell> np
[03:08] <Crippy-Boy> Fingertips: i think people should find an alternative to windows software or run windows...
[03:09] <Fingertips> Crippy-Boy: well i would like to try and run CS:Source... its not like theres an alternative tot hat
[03:09] <fluvvell> Fingertips, winetools is useful
[03:09] <Crippy-Boy> then dual boot?
[03:09] <Crippy-Boy> AFAIK directx support in wine is flaky at best
[03:10] <tigg_> Im just trying to record live audio streams
[03:10] <Fingertips> fluvvell: how do i install winetools
[03:10] <fluvvell> Fingertips, apt-get winetools
[03:10] <fluvvell> oop
[03:10] <fluvvell> Fingertips, apt-get install winetools
[03:10] <Fingertips> fluvvell: is that compatable with AMD 64
[03:11] <overshard> whenever i start compiz the borders of all my windows disappear :S
[03:11] <fluvvell> Fingertips, windows isn't even compatible with amd64
[03:11] <fluvvell> ;-)
[03:11] <Fingertips> fluvvell: so thats a no
[03:11] <Fingertips> fluvvell: i mean can it run in 32 bit mode
[03:11] <fluvvell> Fingertips, Drivers and programs arn't fully supported in XP64
[03:11] <Fingertips> fluvvell: on my proc
[03:11] <Crippy-Boy> fluvvell: XP X64 says different
[03:12] <Fingertips> fluvvell: im not talking about that im talking about can my proc run it in 32 mode
[03:12] <fluvvell> Crippyboy, but I've tried it, have you?
[03:12] <Fingertips> fluvvell: Reading package lists... Done
[03:12] <Fingertips> Building dependency tree... Done
[03:12] <Fingertips> E: Couldn't find package winetools
[03:12] <Fingertips> what repo is it in
[03:12] <fluvvell> Fingertips, if you have your ubuntu in 32 mode it would help
[03:12] <Crippy-Boy> fluvvell: Infact yes, and i didnt read your comment about drivers and programs before i commented.
[03:12] <Fingertips> fluvvell: how do i check
[03:13] <fluvvell> Crippy-boy, ok
[03:13] <Fingertips> fluvvell: if its in 32 mode or not
[03:13] <fluvvell> Fingertips, which kernel are you running   uname -a
[03:14] <Fingertips> ok i dont think its in 32 Linux ubuntu 2.6.15-26-amd64-generic #1 SMP PREEMPT Fri Sep 8 19:55:50 UTC 2006 x86_64 GNU/Linux
[03:14] <Crippy-Boy> thats 64 bit
[03:14] <Fingertips> yea
[03:14] <chowdaryharsha> hi........can i know how to install flash player as i am new to linux
[03:14] <fluvvell> Crippy-boy, I was being a bit ironic, having had a disappointing experience with XP64,  but ubuntu in 64bit ran an ice cool server !
[03:14] <Fingertips> so your saying that i cant run 32 bit things on this even though the processer is compatable with it
[03:15] <Fingertips> at least it runs windows good like
[03:15] <fluvvell> Fingertips, you have 2.6.15-26-amd64, which means you have indeed installed a 64bit kernel
[03:15] <fluvvell> Fingertips, yes you have windows running in 32bit mode which is fine.
[03:15] <Fingertips> fluvvell: yes
[03:15] <cafuego> Fingertips: You can, but it requires fiddling. Besides, on a desktop box, most 32bit apps are actually afster then the 64bit ones.
[03:16] <fluvvell> I agree cafuego.
[03:16] <Fingertips> fluvvell: but my question is.... shouldnt i be able to run winetools in 32bit mode
[03:16] <fluvvell> Fingertips, yes
[03:16] <cafuego> Fingertips: Yes, but you will need to set up a 32bit sandbox (chroot) for it.
[03:16] <fluvvell> Fingertips, but you'd be better doing it with a 32 bit kernel instal
[03:16] <Fingertips> hrm
[03:16] <fluvvell> the sandbox is the recommended way but I don't reckon its for beginners
[03:17] <cafuego> Fingertips: The kernel may be able to run 32bit code, but that means you also need 32bit versions of all libraries the app uses.
[03:17] <Fingertips> fluvvell: i686 <-- if i get a winetools like that will it work
[03:17] <Crippy-Boy> fluvvell: Ive had a disappointing experience with xp all round. If its not WGA telling me that my copy of xp is illegal and i cant install something (which incidently i had the COA with me) its the xp wireless util pissing up my wireless settings.
[03:18] <fluvvell> Crippy-Boy: so here we are in the ubuntu forum :-)  At least I find answers to my questions, I have every app i need and almost never reboot!
[03:18] <Crippy-Boy> If it wasnt for the fact i had to use xp for college work, i'd take great pleasure in putting the cd in the microwave and butning the COA.
[03:18] <w30> I compiled a custom kernel and it has no screen output on bootup untill I see the nvidia splash screen and xdm login. What did I do wrong?
[03:19] <Crippy-Boy> fluvvell: Exactly. Ubuntu isnt the first distro ive used (debian for a year or so and Fedora before that) but up to now seems to be the most polished.
[03:19] <fluvvell> I fully agree
[03:19] <w30> Is there a boot option I need to pas to the kernel?
[03:19] <w30> pass
[03:19] <cafuego> w30: No, I think you're just missing console support.
[03:20] <Crippy-Boy> w30, or you have the splash boot param and have disabled usplash as i did :D
[03:20] <w30> cafuego, that's weird, I made oldconfig
[03:21] <Fingertips> fluvvell: ok assuming i re-install using a 32bit version what repository is winetools in
[03:21] <fluvvell> Fingertips, if its not too late, can you reinstall with 32 bit?  If you want flash and multimedia drivers, wine and all the associated goodies it might be the easier way
[03:21] <cafuego> w30: Did you build the kernel with an initrd?
[03:21] <w30> Crippy-Boy, how did you disable usplash?
[03:21] <cafuego> w30: For starters, remove the 'quiet' from the grub kernel line. That'll help.
[03:21] <w30> cafuego, yes initrd is in
[03:21] <junkphreak> hey how can i mount my home folder ?
[03:22] <fluvvell> Fingertips, problem is that i've had it installed and upgraded to dapper and don't exactly know which one it came from.
[03:22] <Crippy-Boy> w30: rcconf.
[03:22] <w30> cafuego, ok I will try removing quiet
[03:22] <fluvvell> Fingertips, but do you have universe and multiverse?
[03:22] <Fingertips> fluvvell: yes
[03:22] <bas> hi
[03:22] <azureal> yes, sound is back ;)
[03:22] <w30> Crippy-Boy, what edit rcconf?
[03:22] <azureal> it's a great feeling to get something back (that you lost)
[03:22] <wastrel> hi
[03:23] <wastrel> i'm downloading photos from my camera
[03:23] <harsha_> hello.............can anyone tell me how to install flashplayer as i am new to linux
[03:23] <azureal> you never know how much you love something, or someone, til you've lost it
[03:23] <wastrel> it is suboptimal
[03:23] <SkippyX> If I buy a DVD-RW off e-bay, can I expect that it'll be recognized and supported by Breezy on boot-up?
[03:23] <bas> sorry, which one is better ubuntu or kubuntu
[03:23] <azureal> harsha_, you mean flash plugin for firefox?
[03:23] <cafuego> bas: Neither. try both, then choose.
[03:23] <Crippy-Boy> bas: try them and see for yourself its personal pe
[03:23] <Crippy-Boy> prefference*
[03:23] <burnhamd_> depends on if you like kde or gnome
[03:23] <cpk2> Bas: which do you like better gnome or kde? thats the only difference
[03:23] <burnhamd_> personally i like gnome for is clean interface
[03:24] <harsha_> hi
[03:24] <bas> i prefered kubuntu but most of people say that kubuntu it is not estable but works fine to me!!
[03:24] <azureal> harsha_, you mean flash plugin for firefox?
[03:24] <burnhamd_> kde is more advanced with nifty features but is a mess to use (for me anyway)
[03:24] <Plouj> SkippyX: most likely. You should just check the model and whethere it's compatible with ubuntu.
[03:24] <SkippyX> K
[03:24] <SkippyX> thank you.
[03:24] <wastrel> i dont understand why people make such distinctions between kubuntu ubuntu and xubuntu
[03:24] <azureal> panickedthumb?
[03:25] <azureal> lol
[03:25] <Crippy-Boy> KDE has the same problems as OS X's interface, its not consistant. IMO anyway
[03:25] <panickedthumb> yes sur?
[03:25] <Fingertips> fluvvell: ok 32bit reinstall it is
[03:25] <panickedthumb> sir even
[03:25] <azureal> ubuntu will always be ubuntu, even in africa ;)
[03:25] <burnhamd_> osx isnt really that inconsistant
[03:25] <wastrel> consistent
[03:25] <harsha_> azureal, yes.....actually i downloaded and extracted  it to desktop.....whats the next step??
[03:25] <Fingertips> fluvvell: have you tried cedega
[03:26] <azureal> harsha_, just follow http://www.adobe.com/shockwave/download/download.cgi?P1_Prod_Version=ShockwaveFlash&P2_Platform=Linux&P3_Browser_Version=Netscape4
[03:26] <Crippy-Boy> burnhamd_: Are you kidding me, I dont know if im going to get a metal window, a window with strange multicoloured lines or a plain old window.
[03:26] <panickedthumb> azureal, you rang?
[03:26] <mikeo1> how come firefox always crashes on like 50% of the sites i visit
[03:26] <mikeo1> like weather.com
[03:26] <Crippy-Boy> or a boring old grey window :-)
[03:26] <azureal> panickedthumb, oh, just wondering why you became a thumb =P
[03:26] <mikeo1> cause firefox doesnt suck this much on windows
[03:26] <panickedthumb> azureal, that's how I roll
[03:26] <Fingertips> Crippy-Boy: have you tried Cedega
[03:26] <burnhamd_> so you mean inconsistant by theme not by the way the ui is layed out
[03:26] <azureal> hahaha
[03:26] <mikeo1> is ubuntu really that unstable?
[03:26] <wastrel> firefox only crashes on flash movies for me
[03:27] <mikeo1> firefox crashes on any javascript i think
[03:27] <mikeo1> like i cant view weather rader on weather.com
[03:27] <wastrel> do you have a million extensions?
[03:27] <Crippy-Boy> Fingertips: no, no i havent, i have no need for it
[03:27] <mikeo1> which is pretty essential
[03:27] <Crippy-Boy> mikeo1: thats absolute rubbish.
[03:27] <mikeo1> it works running in wine with the windows version of firefox
[03:27] <azureal> most of the firefox plugins are just links to the real ones in mozilla/plugins
[03:27] <mikeo1> but i think stuff like that should work by default
[03:27] <burnhamd_> the themes were orginally meant to distinguish between classes of apps but developers began to misuse them so they are going to unified in leapord
[03:28] <wastrel> where do i find weather radar on weather.com?
[03:28] <mikeo1> is it a bug with xgl maybe?
[03:28] <mikeo1> enter your zip code
[03:28] <Crippy-Boy> mikeo1: 1) javascript works perfectly fine unless theres malformed crap, 2) i fail to see what firefox being unstable for YOU has to do with ubuntu being 'unstable'
[03:28] <mikeo1> then go down and click on the picture
[03:28] <mikeo1> of weather rader
[03:28] <mikeo1> as soon as i click it the window closes
[03:28] <mikeo1> happens about every 5 min on random sites i browse
[03:28] <wastrel> no that works fine for me
[03:29] <wastrel> mikeo1:  are you on breezy or dapper?
[03:29] <mikeo1> dapper
[03:29] <mikeo1> with xgl
[03:29] <fdelacruz> good morning
[03:29] <azureal> w00t, a vipe
[03:29] <azureal> viper*
[03:29] <azureal> i'm partial to vipers
[03:29] <Crippy-Boy> azureal: what kind? :P
[03:29] <mikeo1> it works great on firefox running in wine... but for some reason the default firefox never works good
[03:29] <daveb> anyone know where to get s2ram for ubuntu dapper?
[03:29] <mikeo1> konqueror crashes less...
[03:29] <azureal> Crippy-Boy, light green, i guess
[03:30] <mikeo1> and i have the same problem on another box that i run a server on that is running ubuntu
[03:30] <azureal> <the snake>
[03:30] <Crippy-Boy> azureal: i meant, Snakes? the car? what? :P

[03:30] <RnB-Tunes> http://www.rnb-tunes.dl.am <- new update! HOT RnB Tracks & Music Vids to Download! Check it out ;)
[03:30] <Crippy-Boy> heh, i guess flooding makes up for having no tallent...
[03:30] <wastrel> i dunno about xgl,  firefox is plenty stable on my dapper system
[03:30] <azureal> haha
[03:30] <fuoco> what's that about ?
[03:30] <mikeo1> firefox is unstable on my dapper system that doesnt have xgl installed...
[03:31] <mikeo1> so im pretty sure its not xgl
[03:31] <wastrel> maybe it's an extension you have installed?
[03:31] <mikeo1> never installed any extentions...
[03:31] <azureal> how did you install firefox
[03:31] <mikeo1> apt
[03:31] <Crippy-Boy> mikeo1: Open firefox with terminal and see if you get any errors when it crashes
[03:31] <imc_> sudo apt-get install mozilla-firefox axureal
[03:31] <imc_> s/axureal/auzereal
[03:31] <omar> Hello I am downloading a big file
[03:32] <azureal> ?
[03:32] <imc_> Oh hell you know what i mean.. :)
[03:32] <azureal> lol
[03:32] <Crippy-Boy> omar: thats nice.
[03:32] <azureal> imc_, oh, i was just asking mikeo1, i know how to install stuff =P
[03:32] <deafdj> h
[03:32] <omar> and I am not planning to use the machine for nothing else, can I liberate memory or do something to do it faster
[03:32] <imc_> Ahh, I see
[03:32] <mikeo1> just got the error
[03:32] <fuoco> who can recommend the best rss reader ?
[03:32] <mikeo1> The program 'Gecko' received an X Window System error.
[03:33] <imc_> fuoco the same person who can recommend the best ice cream :)
[03:33] <danglybits> tried this question in ubuntu+1 but no one home....will amd64 edgy have the ability to use firefox 32 bit and flash 32 bit via synaptic?
[03:33] <mikeo1> This probably reflects a bug in the program.
[03:33] <mikeo1> The error was 'BadImplementation (server does not implement operation)'.
[03:33] <Crippy-Boy> omar: the download speed is limited by your connection. thats all, i doubt 'liberating memory' will make much difference
[03:33] <azureal> imc_, hahahaahahah
[03:33] <fuoco> imc_: who ?
[03:33] <imc_> :-D
[03:33] <azureal> me-- mint chocolate chip
[03:33] <SpudDogg> Ubuntu rocks
[03:33] <imc_> You tried the one in thunderbird
[03:33] <imc_> fuoco?
[03:33] <sethk> mikeo1, when I've seen that error, it was caused by a bad installation.  That may or may not be true in your case.
[03:33] <fuoco> imc_: nope, i don;t user thunder
[03:33] <mikeo1> (Details: serial 34 error_code 17 request_code 130 minor_code 5)  (Note to programmers: normally, X errors are reported asynchronously;  that is, you will receive the error a while after causing it.   To debug your program, run it with the --sync command line   option to change this behavior. You can then get a meaningful backtrace from your debugger if you break on the gdk_x_error() function.)
[03:33] <imc_> Ah. It's not bad
[03:34] <fuoco> imc_: gmail fan
[03:34] <azureal> isnt there some firefox option to choose the engine? that might cause  problems... i remember there were 2 choices, Gecko or...
[03:34] <omar> Crippy-Boy: I know but maybe my machine is doing something elase, I can't se, and I want it just downloading
[03:34] <Crippy-Boy> omar: then look at the process list and see what its doing that you dont like.
[03:34] <sethk> mikeo1, none of that detail really means a whole lot.  the program is talking to a different version of X than the program was compiled for.
[03:34] <omar> Crippy-Boy: How
[03:34] <azureal> best alias
[03:34] <azureal> alias psf='ps aux | grep'
[03:34] <mikeo1> hmmm
[03:35] <Crippy-Boy> omar: ps?
[03:35] <mikeo1> so how do i fix it?
[03:35] <mikeo1> dont want to reformat and reinstall
[03:35] <sethk> mikeo1, try reinstalling just the program producing the error.
[03:35] <Yggdrasil> how do i remove all my x-windows and window managers i jsut want my box to be console
[03:36] <azureal> omar: simplest is 'ps aux' to see all running processes for all users... but if you can find a graphical program (similar to task manager) go for it
[03:36] <sethk> Yggdrasil, it's easy enough to not run them.  physically removing them from the disks is difficult and likely to cause problems.  unless you need the disk space desparately, don't remove it, just don't run it.
[03:36] <Yggdrasil> sethk yea ...
[03:36] <Yggdrasil> just bothers me everytime i update..
[03:36] <mikeo1> so reinstall firefox?
[03:36] <Yggdrasil> cuz its a slow box
[03:36] <omar> Crippy-Boy: You mean I should download it apt-get install ps aux?
[03:37] <sethk> Yggdrasil, then back up carefully and fully before uninstalling
[03:37] <Crippy-Boy> omar: uhh no...
[03:37] <Yggdrasil> ahh ok
[03:37] <azureal> mikeo1, you weren't prompted for something to do w/ Gecko the first time you started firefox?
[03:37] <Yggdrasil> sethk isnt apt-get remove gnome-desktop ?
[03:37] <Crippy-Boy> omar: use ps aux to see a list of processes and kill what you dont like.
[03:37] <azureal> omar: ps is a built-in command...  "man ps"
[03:37] <Meglo_> Whats the file path to the XFree module? /usr/X11R6/lib/modules/drivers???
[03:38] <mikeo1> dont think so
[03:38] <SpudDogg> does anyone know if Mark Shuttleworth ever comes around here?
[03:38] <Crippy-Boy> Yggdrasil: either that or just do an install with the server cd.
[03:38] <azureal> omar: (and then q to quit looking at the manual pages)
[03:38] <mikeo1> man xkill is the greatest
[03:38] <SpudDogg> does anyone know if Mark Shuttleworth ever comes around here?  maybe to see how the community is?
[03:38] <azureal> xkill is hilarious
[03:38] <azureal> i found out about xkill only today
[03:39] <Meglo> azureal, what is xkill?
[03:39] <danglybits> will broadcomm wireless chip now work in edgy?
[03:39] <mikeo1> lol its the most usefull thing ever
[03:39] <Madpilot> SpudDogg, haven't seen him much in #ubuntu
[03:39] <omar> Crippy-Boy: it's doing a lot of things like evolution
[03:39] <Homicide187> hello, i am having a problem with azureus, its keeps giving me a null pointer exception
[03:39] <Yggdrasil> whats os hilarious about it ?
[03:39] <azureal> Meglo, are you familiar with kill?
[03:39] <Meglo> Somewhat.
[03:39] <SpudDogg> Madpilot, I didnt think so...it would be cool to say whats up though
[03:39] <azureal> Yggdrasil, the skull and crossbones
[03:40] <Yggdrasil> crippy-boy ive allready got a lot of stuff running on it. and like i said its a slow box.. so reisntalling is pretty painfull
[03:40] <imc_> fuoco, me too  - but you can set up thunderbird to read your gmail, too (hooah) and also / or only  use it as an rss reader. Just a thought
[03:40] <Crippy-Boy> Homicide187: Do you have low free space by any chance?
[03:40] <azureal> Meglo, you can just type xkill, and then your mouse turns into a skull and crossbones... then click on the window of the desired prog to kill, and that program gets killed =P
[03:40] <don_jr> Hello everyone.  What is the equivilent command in ubuntu to the older unixmake
[03:40] <Scrippie> Hi
[03:40] <Homicide187> no i have 80 gb free
[03:40] <Meglo> azureal thats really COOL
[03:40] <azureal> are you being sarcastic? =P
[03:40] <Crippy-Boy> Homicide187: not too sure then, just pause and restart the download.
[03:41] <mitrick> is it better to switch from xmms to amarok or banshee?
[03:41] <Crippy-Boy> mitrick: matter of taste.
[03:41] <Homicide187> i do that but it will go for a few minutes and stop again
[03:41] <azureal> mitrick, yes, taste, but i just use beep-media-player, a version of xmms
[03:41] <mitrick> i like how the real itunes manage the playlist
[03:41] <azureal> amarok is bulky, imo
[03:42] <mitrick> one big list all arranged and visibly clean to look at
[03:42] <Crippy-Boy> Amarok is slightly bulky but i love it.
[03:42] <Scunizi> don_jr:  try man make for info on make from a console.  That might be it.
[03:42] <azureal> oh, i dont like the whole itunes setup... i just create my own playlists and load them
[03:42] <don_jr> scunizi I'll give that a look
[03:42] <burnhamd_> i like the way itunes works
[03:42] <don_jr> scunizi no manual entry for 'make'
[03:42] <mikeo1> did anyone ever make a plugin to scroll through windows yet?
[03:42] <mikeo1> for xgl
[03:43] <mitrick> it would be nice a real itunes native under linux
[03:43] <Scunizi> don_jr:  let me try in my system.  back in a sec
[03:43] <don_jr> scunizi Okay, I'll be here.
[03:43] <Crippy-Boy> the one and ONLY thing i miss from os x is Expose.
[03:43] <Scunizi> don_jr .. try info make
[03:43] <don_jr> I'm trying to install tinyfudge on ubuntu, how do I 'make the file?
[03:43] <Yggdrasil> i havea usb hp printer and my console box. is basicly like my server . so it has no screen... can i make it work.
[03:44] <burnhamd_> i have both but when using linux i miss itunes and commercial support from games
[03:44] <burnhamd_> not to mention it integrates better on windows networks
[03:45] <Scunizi> don_jr.... check out https://wiki.ubuntu.com/?action=fullsearch&context=180&value=compile&titlesearch=Titles for different topics on compiling
[03:45] <Crippy-Boy> Id love a simple crappy version that does essentially the same thing as expose for linux, Im considering hacking something up myself, but i dont really know much about programming for X and im not sure if its worth the effort.
[03:45] <mikeo1> how do i auto mount ntfs drives?
[03:45] <Scrippie> private
[03:45] <mikeo1> i had hte umask thing working in fstab but forgot the command when i upgraded
[03:45] <mikeo1> and it stopped working...
[03:45] <don_jr> scunizi I'll check out that page then, the info make gave me a list of things I could use 'info' for, hence make not bein one of them.
[03:46] <mitrick> i got xgl working on my other ubuntu box, there is certain apps that it wont display window borders why/
[03:46] <mitrick> ?
[03:46] <Scunizi> don_jr.  I've got a better page ref. for you.... https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ConfigureMakeMakeInstall
[03:46] <don_jr> Is there not an equivilent command in ubuntu to the older nix versions of 'unixmake'
[03:47] <don_jr> scunizi that's sounds alot better, I'm lookin into it now, thank you for the help
[03:47] <Scunizi> sure thing
[03:48] <mikeo1> my compiz just crashed...
[03:48] <mikeo1> how do i restore windows so i can move them again
[03:49] <printk> compiz --replace gconf
[03:49] <don_jr> say Thank you, that gave me the proper stuff I needed to run themake command
[03:49] <Meglo> Whats the file path to the XFree module? /usr/X11R6/lib/modules/drivers?
[03:49] <Meglo> Not sure if I am even asking a real question...
[03:50] <casey|420> hey i am having some problems installing a program

[04:08] <rexbron> jZed: are you sure you have the right/all of them?
[04:09] <kholerabbi> I have a wmv which plays but has only audio when there should be video as well. Could anybody help me get this working?
[04:09] <jZed> I may not have all, but to play a .ogg ?
[04:09] <carlsagan> is there something gonig here i should know about?
[04:10] <Lam_> is there a way to convert a 'corrupted' iso file (that was originally a bin file with the extension changed) into an iso9660 format?
[04:11] <eternalswd> when I use checkinstall, how do I determine what the dependencies are for that deb, in case I want to make it available to others?
[04:12] <New2Ubuntu> Hello.
[04:12] <New2Ubuntu> Where can I find Ubuntu help?
[04:12] <DShepherd> New2Ubuntu: here...i guess.. you need to ask your question First
[04:13] <New2Ubuntu> I have an on-board soundcard and a Chaintech AV-210 PCI-E soundcard.  Ubuntu live CD ran the Chaintech just fine but I get no sound in the full install and changing it in sound preferences does nothing.
[04:14] <New2Ubuntu> What should I do to get my sound working with my AV-210?
[04:17] <Jack_Sparrow> casey|420: You would need to add all the debian repos and go after it... it is NOT ready for ubuntu
[04:17] <eternalswd> New2Ubuntu, could you post the result of "amixer" (run that from the terminal) to http://past.ubuntu-nl.org
[04:18] <SpudDogg> Has anyone here ever played "Planet Penguin Racer"?  Built in Ubuntu
[04:18] <newUbuntu> hi everyone
[04:18] <newUbuntu> i need some help with ubuntu
[04:19] <newUbuntu> i read the wiki page on how to install the new firefox version and i dont seem to be able to make it work!
[04:19] <newUbuntu> can anyone help me?
[04:19] <New2Ubuntu> Pasted.
[04:19] <newUbuntu> talking to me?
[04:20] <eternalswd> New2Ubuntu, you need to paste the link here
[04:20] <New2Ubuntu> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/d23828
[04:20] <Crippy-Boy> casey|420: you still here?
[04:20] <carlsagan> ubuntu
[04:20] <carlsagan> anyone has ubuntu?
[04:20] <newUbuntu> hey carl i have ubuntu
[04:20] <newUbuntu> but im stuck :)
[04:20] <boyko> To avoid confusion, I'm now known as "boyko"
[04:20] <Crippy-Boy> newUbuntu: whats wrong?
[04:21] <carlsagan> cool newUbuntu
[04:21] <carlsagan> what happen?
[04:21] <newUbuntu>  i read the wiki page on how to install the new firefox version and i dont seem to be able to make it work!
[04:21] <Crippy-Boy> newUbuntu: care to give me the link to the wiki page?
[04:21] <newUbuntu> sure hang on
[04:21] <boyko> To be fair, I think it's recognizing BOTH soundcards, (the Chaintech is showing up) I just think it's set on the wrong one.
[04:21] <jazzrocker_> anyone know a better FTP server than vsftpd
[04:21] <jazzrocker_> i'm not satisfied with the config options
[04:22] <eternalswd> New2Ubuntu, could you do the same with "amixer --card 1"
[04:22] <Rookie-> jazzrocker - proftpd
[04:22] <newUbuntu> CRIPPYBOY - I used this guy https://wiki.ubuntu.com/FirefoxNewVersion
[04:22] <Crippy-Boy> jazzrocker: No idea and this might be a bit redundant but why not use sftp?
[04:22] <carlsagan> so anyone has ubuntu?
[04:23] <wastrel> ubuntu
[04:23] <carlsagan> wastrel: ?
[04:23] <Rookie-> belive everyone has some kind of ubuntu installed
[04:23] <eternalswd> newubuntu, where are you getting stuck?
[04:23] <carlsagan> can you tell me does ubuntu work good on a server?
[04:23] <newUbuntu> i did a bunch of stuff Crippy and i got a complaint
[04:23] <SpudDogg> Is it possible to run a program like Winamp via wine?  I tried but it yells at me about not having some devices
[04:23] <carlsagan> because i have to get rid of gentoo on my server.
[04:23] <newUbuntu> so here is what i did ok... i went to firefox and downloaded this tar.gz file
[04:24] <carlsagan> i was hope someone might know it
[04:24] <Rookie-> carlsagan - i running serverversion, it seems to be some stable and really easy to maintain
[04:24] <newUbuntu> and then it is now sitting on my Desktop
[04:24] <Crippy-Boy> SpudDogg: use a native media player, why mess around trying to get a windows one to run
[04:24] <carlsagan> it works in the good Rookie- =)
[04:24] <newUbuntu> so then i used the command line to extract it and it made a folder on my desktop called firefox
[04:24] <SpudDogg> Crippy-Boy, because the ones built in do not play video very nicely
[04:24] <Rookie-> ohh, yes - and im used to slackware but this time i choosed ubuntu
[04:24] <ver1oren> ubuntu wont let me get out of 640x480 res...i have an x800xt all in wonder card. anyone know what to do?
[04:24] <newUbuntu> so when i go click on my quick shortcut for firefox the version is still the same
[04:24] <SpudDogg> Crippy-Boy, and they also will not stream my vidoes
[04:25] <Rookie-> carlsagan - and im running without GUI on that one
[04:25] <newUbuntu> so i dunno what i am doin wrong :(
[04:25] <carlsagan> RobNyc|Ubuntu, apt-get?
[04:25] <carlsagan> Rookie-, apt-get?
[04:25] <boyko> So, any clues?
[04:26] <Rookie-> easy to use, easy to find pkg's
[04:26] <newUbuntu> *** i guess in general i dont know how to install new files to my computer
[04:26] <Rookie-> one time installation, then some update each week
[04:26] <boyko> Tell you what, I'm going to see if a reboot can't fix the damn thing.
[04:26] <eternalswd> newUbuntu, if all you did was extract it to your desktop, then you didn't do much.  I would suggest using the script that is available http://pykeylogger.sourceforge.net/wiki/index.php/Ubuntu:Chronicles#Install_Firefox_1.5
[04:27] <Rookie-> dont install more then you will use, less risk for error in operation ...
[04:27] <Crippy-Boy> newUbuntu: I suggest you read the wiki page a little more clearly, If theres a command your unsure of use man <command> then if your still stuck come back.
[04:27] <carlsagan> you know what's
[04:27] <carlsagan> is it good rookie?
[04:27] <eternalswd> newUbuntu, even better, wait for the new version to find it's way into the repositories and install via synaptic
[04:27] <newUbuntu> **Crippy  - I did read the wiki page carefully but it gave me a complaint saying i wasnt able to install it
[04:28] <Rookie-> well, i only had it for 4 weeks and i dont have any problem yet
[04:28] <newUbuntu> **Eternal - I looked at the script but it seems intimidating :)
[04:28] <eternalswd> newUbuntu, I had tried installing the mozilla version, and it ended up using 100% processor when downloading files.  I'd suggest waiting for the new version to reach synaptic
[04:29] <newUbuntu> ** Eternal - when will they distribute a new version!
[04:29] <BHSPitMonkey> newUbuntu, next month.
[04:29] <Rookie-> but from what dist are you coming from ?
[04:29] <wewik> have got ubuntu any official blog?? (sorry for my english, i am spanish)
[04:29] <carlsagan> Rookie-, gentoo
[04:29] <kornflak> I am trying to play a DVD movie with Ubuntu, can anyone help?
[04:29] <eternalswd> newubuntu, should be quicker than next month since it's a security update.  I'd say this week sometime
[04:29] <carlsagan> it take a long time to update on my slow server
[04:29] <carlsagan> slower than dog dirt actually
[04:30] <Crippy-Boy> How slow is dog dirt?
[04:30] <carlsagan> 200mhz or so
[04:30] <newUbuntu> ** Eternal - how would i know where those updates will be? My friend lent me the Ubuntu cd so i mean... i dunno if ubuntu has an autoupdate?
[04:30] <Rookie-> carlsagan - you will find ubuntu very easy, and if you do a one time installation you wont touh the server more than at the update time
[04:30] <BHSPitMonkey> wewik, /join #ubuntu-es si quiere usted usar espanol
[04:30] <epiloc> how do i set up nautilus to run as root, so it never tells me i dont have permision to copy/paste/etc
[04:30] <carlsagan> that would be nice if it were faster
[04:30] <carlsagan> epiloc, no
[04:30] <wewik> thanks, gracias
[04:31] <ver1oren> i can't get out of 640x480. i have an ati x800xt all-in-wonder, can someone please help?
[04:31] <epiloc> carlsagan, sometimes id rather not do it command prompt
[04:31] <Lam_> is there a way to convert a 'corrupted' iso file (that was originally a bin file with the extension changed) into an iso9660 format?
[04:31] <epiloc> carlsagan, sometimes im lazy and i want to sit back with my mouse
[04:31] <Dr_Willis> ver1oren,  install the ati drivers yet?
[04:31] <Lam_> err, are Ubuntu forums open to non-registered members?
[04:31] <Rookie-> depence on what you will run with it - my server is somewhat fast for what it does and i cant tell if my server is faster or slower with any other dist ... if you use GUI it will be slower, thats for sure
[04:31] <carlsagan> epiloc, its not something that should be done!!!!
[04:31] <Lam_> i'll just go post there if that's the case :)
[04:32] <carlsagan> RobNyc|Ubuntu, i don
[04:32] <ver1oren> not from the website, but found lots of evidence that there is already a sudo driver installed...
[04:32] <carlsagan> Rookie-, im not using the gui on the server
[04:32] <Dr_Willis> Lam_,  should be. but i hear they are having some uptime uissues
[04:32] <Dr_Willis> ver1oren,  follow the !ATI wiki page/guide
[04:32] <epiloc> carlsagan, i have a root terminal open most of the time, might as well give nautilus root every once in a while
[04:32] <Dr_Willis> !ati
[04:32] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[04:32] <newUbuntu> has anyone installed MYSQL ?
[04:32] <carlsagan> Rookie-, it is for serving videos and mp3s
[04:32] <lastnode_> can ubuntu write to ntfs disks (write data)
[04:32] <Dr_Willis> ver1oren,  i got NO idea what you mean by a 'sudo driver' :)
[04:32] <carlsagan> epiloc, it is very danger
[04:32] <carlsagan> epiloc, dangerous!
[04:32] <epiloc> carlsagan, i know :)
[04:32] <Rookie-> carlsagan - you wont notice any diff if so - unless you running alot of services ... and thats an issue i dont know any about
[04:32] <eternalswd> newubuntu,  it should autoupdate.  you need to learn how to use synptic, and apt-get.  those are the primary programs that are used to install software.  the software listings are called repositories and there is a file /etc/apt/sources.list that contain the info for getting the lists.  you should http://www.ubuntuforums.org for enabling all of the ubuntu repositories.
[04:33] <carlsagan> Rookie-, i have lot of services needed
[04:33] <Crippy-Boy> epiloc: then why not just say sod it and login as root all the time, Hey why do things by halves?
[04:33] <carlsagan> epiloc, so start your nautilus as root
[04:33] <eternalswd> newubuntu *search http://www.ubuntuforums.org
[04:33] <Lam_> Dr_Willis: ok thanks
[04:33] <carlsagan> Crippy-Boy, CAN YOU explain sod?
[04:34] <Crippy-Boy> carlsagan: what?
[04:34] <ver1oren> well i haven't installed the official driver, but the "System Settings" says an ATI driver is installed
[04:34] <Rookie-> carlsagan - try it and judge it ... change if it isnt the dist for you
[04:34] <carlsagan> Crippy-Boy, what you mean "sod it"?
[04:34] <Dr_Willis> sod :)  dirt/grass - used  to build houses in the midwest in the old west.
[04:34] <Dr_Willis> also slang for somthing sexual.
[04:34] <Dr_Willis> that i wont repeate here.
[04:34] <carlsagan> i don't get it
[04:34] <carlsagan> what it have to do with him going root?
[04:34] <carlsagan> you mean the root goes in sod?
[04:35] <carlsagan> =(
[04:35] <newUbuntu> *** ETERNAL thanks a lot. well the thing is i sorta turned into a Linux user recently. I really dont know too well how to install and uninstall things. I am just too familiar with Windows becuase when you download the file i would assume you just extract it and give you some kind of window prompt to follow the screen
[04:35] <Crippy-Boy> carlsagan: Its an expression, like 'f it' (being careful not to get 50 people getting the bot to tell me about my language) :D
[04:35] <Dr_Willis> Lol

[04:38] <bimberi> carlsagan: doesn't happen with all gui apps, but as a rule of thumb...
[04:38] <eternalswd> when I use checkinstall, how do I determine what the dependencies are for that deb, in case I want to make it available to others?

[04:44] <matju> suppose i am tired of orange, but want to keep the rest of the theme intact... how do i change the colours? i mean a way to edit a theme in a way more fine-grained than putting three theme-pieces together.
[04:45] <chowdaryharsha> eternalswd, can u tell me how to navigate the directory to terminal
[04:46] <eternalswd> chowdaryharsha, is the extracted directory on your desktop

[04:48] <eternalswd> chowdaryharsha, what Crippy-boy said
[04:48] <bimberi> iCod: does a "killall esd" prior to running it help?  also, there is a 1.3beta available which plays more nicely sound-wise.
[04:49] <iCod> I'll try...
[04:49] <chowdaryharsha> eternalswd, Crippy-Boy , command not found....its coming like that
[04:49] <Crippy-Boy> chowdaryharsha: what exactly did you type?
[04:50] <chowdaryharsha> Crippy-Boy, first cd Desktop
[04:50] <chowdaryharsha> Crippy-Boy, then  install_flash_player_7_linux
[04:50] <Crippy-Boy> uh huh... then?
[04:50] <Crippy-Boy> chowdaryharsha, Just use the command sudo apt-get install flashplayer-nonfree

[04:51] <Dr_Willis> kholerabbi,  a lot depends on the codec the wmv is using.. ffmpeg, and mencoder may be able to do it.
[04:51] <Crippy-Boy> chowdaryharsha: it should do yes.
[04:52] <bimberi> iCod: hmmk, sorry, that's all i can suggest :|
[04:52] <eternalswd> kholerabbi, do you mean wmv to ogm or wma to ogg?
[04:52] <eternalswd> kholerabbi, wmv to ogg is video to audio :)
[04:53] <Madpilot> eternalswd, ogg does video too
