[19:09] <jgoo> Can I run a live ISO from a USB drive do you think??? I can connect two usb HDD's to the system, and install from one to the other
[19:09] <hwilde> aj_, even when you specify your exact hw params it is not good ?
[19:09] <Emof> no :(
[19:09] <Emof> just that the system can't detect my card
[19:10] <LjL> aj_, perhaps try giving dpkg-reconfigure the amount of RAM on your card manually. it might get mis-detected. just a guess (but that could cause screen corruption)
[19:10] <hwilde> aj_, did you verify the config with   nvidia-settings ?
[19:10] <aj_> hwilde:  I when thru what it auto detected, selected the correct supported resolutions and everything else, except i left the default frequencies as i did not get any other info while searching
[19:10] <aj_> hwilde:  nvidia-settings says am not running the binary driver
[19:10] <mirak> does anyone know what is the usefullness of wubi.exe on the Live CD of Gutsy ????
[19:11] <markus__> how do i install windows when the setup cant detect a hard drive?
[19:11] <hwilde> aj_, there you go.  install the nvidia driver
[19:11] <hwilde> !nvidia | aj_
[19:11] <ubotu> aj_: To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[19:11] <nickrud> !wubi
[19:11] <ubotu> wubi is an unofficial Ubuntu installer for Windows users - more info is at http://www.cutlersoftware.com/ubuntusetup/wubi/en-US/index.html
[19:11] <aj_> hwilde:  the res. driv. manager says the binary drivers are running
[19:11] <stefg> !windows | markus__
[19:11] <nickrud> mirak, ^^
[19:11] <ubotu> markus__: For discussion and help with Microsoft Windows, please visit ##windows. See http://launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/+bug/1 http://linux.oneandoneis2.org/LNW.htm and !equivalents
[19:11] <LjL> aj_, frequencies might or might not be an issue... i'm not familiar with non-CRT monitors, so i don't really know. try this for frequencies: select "Intermediate" (or "Medium" or i don't remember what it's called) mode, then select 1280x800 at 60Hz
[19:11] <hwilde> !nvidia | aj_
[19:12] <aj_> Ljl that is what it is currently running at - but at 800 x 600
[19:12]  * jgoo gives up and decides putting an old cdrom drive will help things
[19:12] <mirak> nickrud: it doesn't answer how to use wubi.exe on the gutsy live cd
[19:12] <LjL> aj_: yes, but select it for the *highest* resolution that you know it can support. then try using that resolution
[19:12] <noor> nickrud:it worked man XD ill give you a screen of my http://i1.tinypic.com/8bq2c7a.png
[19:12] <aj_> Ljl, ok, once more it is
[19:13] <LjL> aj_: dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg <-- this will let you skip most of the questions, but should (i think) give you the frequencies one
[19:13] <nickrud> mirak, I haven't tried it, but I'd expect you'd run it in windows
[19:13] <jimmious> is there a way to make my creative x-fi extreme gamer card work in ubuntu?
[19:13] <nickrud> noor, oh, my eyes, that would kill these ancient ones :)
[19:13] <jimmious> the info i'm finding is not encouraging
[19:13] <mirak> nickrud: but you don't know
[19:13] <the_bull> is there nyone who can help me with my video files?
[19:13] <age6racer> hey guys, i just installed a fresh copy of Gutsy on an old laptop. The live CD worked fine and so does booting in recovery mode and then running startx, but when I log in normally the screen slowly goes blue then white until nothing is on the screen. If I plug into a monitor it works on that too. What is happening and how do i fix it?
[19:13] <noor> nickrud: thx man srsly now im going back to my cave
[19:13] <noor> :D
[19:14] <nickrud> mirak, but these people do http://wubi-installer.org/
[19:14] <nickrud> mirak, would have expected that one on the factoid
[19:14] <aj_> Ljl : am getting a corrupted screen + error of "xserver-xorg postinst warning: overwriting possibly-customised configuration
[19:14] <aj_>    file; backup in /etc/X11/xorg.conf.20071216031410
[19:14] <aj_> "
[19:14] <mirak> nickrud: yes but there here nobody knows that's odd ...
[19:15] <LjL> aj_: that's not an error, it just means that you modified xorg.conf manually, so it's warning you that it's making a backup of it
[19:15] <age6racer> also I tried overwriting my /etc/X11/xorg.conf file with the one from the live CD and that didn't work either
[19:15] <LjL> aj_: so restore that backup (since it doesn't seem to work) and... well, pastebin your full xorg.conf, who knows if i might find something
[19:15] <aj_> erhm, but it';s not bringing me to the screen which allows me to change the config - it just stops there
[19:15] <nickrud> mirak, not odd, just timing most likely. Nobody knows everything, except maybe rob2 who I haven't seen in years
[19:16] <LjL> aj_: oh? then leave out the -phigh :|
[19:16] <aj_> ok
[19:16] <amitprakash> wols, also could u recommend a very fast and light linux server distro.. all i need is the system to be able to accept ssh logins, and i donot care about the security
[19:16] <mirak> nickrud: so they waste disk space on the iso
[19:16] <hwilde> amitprakash, ubuntu-server
[19:16] <hwilde> !server | amitprakash
[19:16] <ubotu> amitprakash: Ubuntu Server Edition is a release of Ubuntu designed especially for server environments, including a server-specific !kernel and no !GUI. The install CD contains many server applications. Current !LTS version is 6.06. For more info see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ServerFaq/ - The #ubuntu-server channel provides specific support
[19:16] <amitprakash> hwilde, thanks.. how big is it?
[19:16] <Dr_willis> amitprakash,  puppy linux, dsl - both about 50mb. :)
[19:16] <hwilde> amitprakash, as small as u need
[19:17] <amitprakash> Dr_willis, , hwilde thanks a lot
[19:17] <Dr_willis> amitprakash,  of course you may want to clarify your needs a bit more. whats the point of accepting ssh logins - if theres nothign to do once you ssh in.
[19:17] <age6racer> Does anyone have a clue what is wrong with my X setup then? or is this the first time anyones come across this kind of thing?
[19:17] <LjL> hwilde: uhm, not quite... you'll hardly go below about 300mb without removing stuff manually (i.e. without using APT), i think
[19:17] <amitprakash> Dr_willis, well i am using the system for a file server.. over sshfs
[19:17] <NeoPhyte21> can anyone help me with building "void11" on ubuntu gutsy 7.10? I'm following the instructions on the programs site for installation, but am getting an error abput pkg-config being unable to find gtk meanwhile i know its installed and can find the file manually using locate
[19:17] <Baen> Im having some troubble installing the Intel i915 driver. Does anyone have a moment to help me?
[19:18] <amitprakash> Dr_willis, so i guess that would be all i need, with cp/mv ofcourse
[19:18] <rsk> Baen: it's not installed by default?
[19:18] <jimmious> Is there a way to make my creative x-fi extreme gamer card work in ubuntu?
[19:18] <hwilde> age6racer, to rule out something in your user profile, make a new clean user account and hit ctrl+alt+backspace, login as that and see
[19:18] <Baen> Its using the 810 driver
[19:18] <age6racer> is that command adduser?
[19:19] <Baen> It's working, but not very well, and I need it to work well with WoW :D
[19:19] <aj_> Ljl, ok, reconfigured - ctrl - alt - backspace now
[19:19] <age6racer> i dont see how there could be anything in there anyway though seeing as it was a brand new install.
[19:19] <age6racer> but i'll try it
[19:19] <hwilde> age6racer, I think it is useradd
[19:19] <Tyczek> do you know utiliti changing brithness from /proc/acpi/video/VGA/LCD/brightness ?
[19:20] <NeoPhyte21> or can someone at least tell me how to add the path to a .pc file to pkg-config ?
[19:20] <Xima1> whenever o do ' sudo modprobe -r usbserial ' i get FATAL MOdule usbserial is in use
[19:20] <Xima1> how do i take it out of use ?
[19:20] <nickrud> age6racer, use system->admin->users  & groups, be sure to give the new user admin privs
[19:20] <aj_> Back - seems like the same issue
[19:20] <Emof> bah, I give up
[19:20] <age6racer> nickrud: ok wil do
[19:21] <Emof> if I zip /home will it pack hidden files too?
[19:21] <Zigara> Emof, use tar
[19:21] <Zigara> and yeah it should include hidden files
[19:21] <markus__> how do i install windows when the setup cant detect a hard drive
[19:21] <hamid11771> hi all , i am e novice
[19:21] <Dr_willis> amitprakash,  sounds about like it. About any distro can do that. :)
[19:22] <NeoPhyte21> anyone?
[19:22] <aj_> Anyone who can help with getting the binary nvidia drivers working (fresh install, used res. drv. manager,  and after reboot that window says bin driver being used, but nvidia-settings says am not)
[19:22] <Dr_willis> markus__,  the windows xp installer cant see the hard drive? can the BIOS see the hard drive?
[19:22] <markus__> yes
[19:22] <Dr_willis> yes to what part. :)
[19:22] <markus__> the bios
[19:22] <nickrud> Xima1, usually a module will list the other modules using it, you have to unload those as well, as well as any app using those modules (or use rmmod -f (force , but that's dangerous to system stability)
[19:23] <Xima1> nickrud : if it crashes my laptop .. will i be able to reboot .. ?
[19:23] <nickrud> Xima1, yes
[19:23] <hamid11771> qqqqqqqqqqqqqqqq
[19:23] <Xima1> so what would be the way to forcefully do it then ? please ... the command i'm trying is sudo modprobe -r usbserial
[19:24] <nickrud> Xima1, I mentioned it , sudo rmmod -f
[19:24] <markus__> the bios can see the hard drive
[19:24] <hamid11771> exit
[19:24] <Jack_Sparrow> markus__: you are trying to install XP correct.. and the installer cannot see any partitions...
[19:25] <markus__> yes, corrct
[19:25] <Jack_Sparrow> markus__: are you in ubuntu now?
[19:25] <markus__> yes
[19:26] <Jack_Sparrow> markus__:   what does    sudo fdisk -l      last letter is L   show for partitions?
[19:26] <proximox> can one ask for help on linux mint in here? or is that frowned upon?
[19:26] <hwilde> !mint | proximox
[19:26] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about mint - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[19:26] <nickrud> proximox, frowned on, come back under a different nick and don't mention mint :)
[19:27] <proximox> nickrud: hehe thanks for the tip =P
[19:27] <aj_> I guess will try again once more tomorrow ..... see if anyone else can give some ideas
[19:27] <aj_> good night
[19:27] <proximox> nickrud: i guess that means that under the hood they are so similar that solutions will be pretty much the same ?
[19:28] <Jack_Sparrow> nickrud: It is annoying to spend half an hour trying to help someone and get nowhere .. then they tell you.. Oh, by the way I am not using ubuntu.. does that m,ake a difference...
[19:28] <Timmy> i have a 666 MHz intel celeron processor with 64 mb of memory
[19:28] <Timmy> on anohter computer
[19:29] <Timmy> what's the most lightweight command line linux i can put on there
[19:29] <proximox> Jack_Sparrow: i agree with that =)
[19:29] <LjL> !ot | Timmy
[19:29] <ubotu> Timmy: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome!
[19:29] <nickrud> Jack_Sparrow, proximox they are very similar, the guts are the same, but the gui ...
[19:29] <clarezoe> anyone knows how to use a switch to make two computers connect to internet, one windows, one linux
[19:30] <nickrud> Timmy, http://www.toms.net/rb/
[19:30] <LjL> plug them in?
[19:30] <proximox> ok, thanks for the response =)
[19:30] <s_v_e_n> clarezoe: you use a router, not a switch.
[19:30] <abdulla> i dont know if these days people use a switch clarezoe :/
[19:30] <Jack_Sparrow> nickrud: I agree there are times when it doesnt matter...   but not knowing the problem they are having.. I wouldn't begin to assume it wont be an issue
[19:30] <abdulla> get a router :) and be happy.
[19:30] <ridge-meister> there is a program called "Wine System Tray Adapter" running, how can i get rid of it? i tried "ps -aux |grep wine, but it's showing nothing
[19:31] <clarezoe> I don't have router right now, only a switch
[19:31] <nickrud> Jack_Sparrow, point taken. My attempt at humor falls flat, once again ;(
[19:31] <clarezoe> actually, my router is broken
[19:31] <NeoPhyte21> anyone have any ideas?
[19:31] <s_v_e_n> clarezoe: get a router !
[19:31] <roaul> hi
[19:31] <MacTheMad> can anyone help me? I just installed the xcursor selector package but it doesn't seem to be working... also how (or what package) do I select a different background for my 2nd desktop w/o changing the one on my 1st?
[19:31] <proximox> Jack_Sparrow: i totally see your point
[19:31] <Jack_Sparrow> nickrud: np.. not trying to stant anything...  sorry for the ot.. and did you see my appology to slipxxx earlier
[19:32] <clarezoe> s_v_e_n, if I had one, i'd rather use a router
[19:32] <nickrud> Jack_Sparrow, no apology needed , and no, he deserved one?
[19:32] <ridge-meister> nickrud: some people just don't get humor :/
[19:32] <LjL> clarezoe, if you only have a pure modem (i.e. modem with no routing capabilities), then there's no way you could use a switch to plug two computers in.
[19:32] <proximox> Jack_Sparrow: nickrud: thanks for answering, mint is a great distro, but with the kind of supportchannel they have i cant really run it, thats why im turning to you guys =)
[19:32] <wols> clarezoe: does one of your computers have 2 NICs?
[19:33] <s_v_e_n> clarezoe: I dont think your privider will let you into the internet 2 times with the same account
[19:33] <Jack_Sparrow> nickrud: Per our discussion... I offered one anyhow for the quick kick...
[19:33] <Mick_> bonsoir
[19:33] <nickrud> Jack_Sparrow, he said he hated me ;(
[19:33] <Jack_Sparrow> nickrud: I know.. it was probably directed at me...
[19:33] <clarezoe> wols, only one of each
[19:34] <Jack_Sparrow> proximox: please explain your problem and we will try to help
[19:34] <wols> clarezoe: then you can't. if one of them has 2 NICs it's possible
[19:34] <s_v_e_n> clarezoe: let start with the basics: what country do you life in, or better how do you connet to the internet, with pppoe ?
[19:34] <proximox> Jack_Sparrow: no problems thus far, just a general question, i just dont wanna get used to a distro which i cant get help for if i need it all of a sudden
[19:34] <clarezoe> s_v_e_n, i'm in sweden, using dhcp

[19:35] <Keule|on> hi there - when usb-hardisks or a usb-mouse is connected when booting the system i have no chance to add other usb-things...... is that a bug? or what is the problem?
[19:35] <MacTheMad> sorry 4 butting in but if it's a dsl or cable modem yes you can send its output to a switch and connect multiple computers that way however if it's a telephony modem you're right you can't
[19:35] <chazco> jrib: e.g. echo "application/ext.extension ext" >> /etc/mime.types
[19:36] <s_v_e_n> clarezoe: do aou have 2 network - card in the linux-box or cat you make it ?
[19:36] <chazco> Gives a permission denied error, even when sudo'ed
[19:36] <xxx_> someone link me to off topic channel i fogot :P
[19:36] <xxx_> ?
[19:36] <jrib> chazco: redirection is done by your shell which has your user permissions.  pipe to tee instead

[19:38] <Shapeshifter> Hi, Flash doesn't work in opera on Gutsy since the last flashplugin-nonfree update. It works in FF but in Opera there's just a gray spacer where the flash should be. I already tried removing the current package and installing the upcoming version for heron (flashplugin-nonfree_<IP_ADDRESS>ubuntu2_i386.deb) but that had no effect. What should I do?
[19:38] <clarezoe> wols, but I've used a program called homeshare in windows and it works fine
[19:38] <thysteo> Hello
[19:38] <FLUxXxX> hello! what gui application is there available to manage system services in ubuntu? besides services-admin which as far as i seen, it doesn't list all the services in /etc/init.d
[19:38] <wols> MacTheMad: you are mistaken cause no consumer ISP gives you several IPs yoU'd need
[19:38] <Keule|on> sorry - i repeat my question... please - i need help ... when usb-hardisks or a usb-mouse is connected when booting the system i have no chance to add other usb-things...... is that a bug? or what is the problem?
[19:38] <wols> GewoonM: where is it?
[19:38] <wols> FLUxXxX: rcconf?
[19:39] <GewoonM> wols: /usr/local/lib/
[19:39] <jrib> FLUxXxX: does ncurses count as gui? sysv-rc-conf
[19:39] <FLUxXxX> wols: is it GUI?
[19:39] <MacTheMad> ah, well ok then... I know it works because mine is set up that way but then again I do have 3 static ip's
[19:39] <s_v_e_n> clarezoe: the hard way ... setup dhcp for eth0 . make a network-card eth0:1 at the linux-box with fixed IP . gibe the second pc a fixed IP from the same subnet, set gataway to the first linux-box (fix-ip, eth0:1) , enable forwarding and nat in the first linux-box.   - are aou able to do that ?
[19:39] <wols> GewoonM: ldconfig

I tried already to use envy, compile myself the driver and even reinstall everything to have a clean place, but the result is always the same. Perhaps it is important to tell that I used to use feisty with no problems, and now using gutsy the thing seems to be unusable, has somene faced s
[19:47] <leo_> omething like this?
[19:48] <leo_> now, even the nv driver is not working properly
[19:48] <paldium> rathel: if [ ! -d /directory ]; then; bla; fi
[19:48] <leo_> and it seems to be a problem with the kernel module...
[19:48] <wols> leo_: what kernel module? nv doesn't have one?
[19:48] <kane77> s_v_e_n, no, I need to connect to my hosting server to be able to connect to school server (you have to have reverse dns entry to be able to connect and I don't have one home) and from school server I need to connect to other school server so I need ssh hosting form there ssh school1 and from there ssh school2...
[19:49] <errant33> Hello everyone
[19:49] <leo_> no, nv does not have, I agree but I dont know what happened that even that X driver is now bogus
[19:49] <linduxed> i installed kde then removed it, some apps that were dragged along were left but thats not much of a problem....the big problem is however that ive got a gazillion things under application-other in GNOME (which seem to be KDE control modules)
[19:49] <leo_> I am more concerned about the nvidia.ko driver
[19:49] <solaries> hi all
[19:49] <jrib> rathel: why don't you just run 'mkdir foo'?  If it already exists, nothing will happen.  If it doesn't, it will get created
[19:49] <wols> leo_: check your xorg log
[19:49] <foso> where can i find the conf file that controls the splash screen settings?
[19:49] <thefrail_> hrm
[19:49] <Baen> nice. 1200 people and no help. You all here to get help then? :P
[19:50] <leo_> yes, but it is not very enlightening
[19:50] <wols> leo_: envy and nvidia.com are not supported
[19:50] <kane77> s_v_e_n, and something like login:pass@server doesn't work with ssh...
[19:50] <errant33> I got a quick question about unbuntus install and i lose my screen when ever i go to command pompt with a 8500gt nvidia card
[19:50] <leo_> where is the place to ask then_
[19:50] <rathel> jrib, I do but then I have to run the script to get my truecrypt volume mounted.
[19:50] <MacTheMad> jrib when I go to system > preferences > appearance there's nothing that mentions cursors
[19:50] <jrib> Baen: are you using the package from the repositories?
[19:50] <jrib> rathel: why?
[19:50] <jrib> MacTheMad: try "customize"
[19:50] <solaries> after having installed dozens of packages using adept_manager on a clean gutsy gibbon distro: How can I print out the list of those additionally installed packages? Then I could use it on other machines as well easily.

[19:51] <DG19075> that is what Ubuntu calls the cursors
[19:51] <NeoPhyte21> can someone tell me how to add a path for pkg-config to search
[19:51] <rathel> jrib, so I won't have to remember making the directory on fresh installs, I can just backup the script and be done with it. :)

[19:51] <Baen> jrib: nope, grabbed it off the web
[19:51] <jrib> rathel: yes, why would what I said not work?  put the mkdir at the top of your script
[19:51] <jrib> Baen: use the package from the repositories
[19:51] <MacTheMad> ah, ok... thanks... will I be able to change just one desktops background there as well?
[19:52] <s_v_e_n> kane77: ssh user@server1 ssh user2@server2 ssh user3@server3   - you have to put in the passwaord then

[19:52] <rathel> ah jrib sorry missunderstood.
[19:52] <MacTheMad> how do I accomplish that then
[19:52] <jrib> MacTheMad: if you have desktop effects enabled, you need to do it in compiz-config-settingsmanager, otherwise you are using metacity and should google "wallpapoz"

[19:52] <wols> Baen: ask intel? you get the stuff from them after all
[19:52] <wols> Baen: i810 will work for you. it's all the same driver

[19:53] <Baen> anyway, its bloody annoying that I cant get it to work. Its not really about the driver any more... :D

[19:54] <jrib> Jezz: sure
[19:54] <Jezz> ok
[19:54] <loke_> Jezz: Yes, so long as you're willing to mess with partitioning.
[19:54] <kane77> s_v_e_n, hmm.. that doesn't work :/
[19:54] <Baen> why would there be a sepparate 915 driver if i could just as well use 810?
[19:54] <Jezz> ye i know
[19:54] <thefrail_> and install it after windows
[19:54] <SaveFerris> wols: If I don't have xsupplicant, whats the best way of getting it to my ubuntu machine without being able to connect to the internet?
[19:54] <Jezz> what filesystem does linux uses?
[19:55] <jrib> Jezz: ext3 by default
[19:55] <solaries> jrib: thanks
[19:55] <Jezz> or does ubuntu format it for me
[19:55] <Jezz> ok
[19:55] <loke_> Jezz: ext2, ext3, resierfs, whatever you want.
[19:55] <wols> SaveFerris: get the .deb and install it with dpkg -i

[19:55] <usr13> Jezz: Several
[19:55] <Jezz> aha
[19:56] <Baen> thanks anyway, jrib, I guess maybe the driver isnt the problem then

[20:03] <P235> wols, I'm looking for something like dxdiag for Windows, or maybe some sort of online database.
[20:03] <wols> P235: it's a built in chip that uses main memory, has no memory of its own like a real video card. all Intel VGA is like this
[20:04] <brobostigon> the shame is, is that they could make it so it did have its own memory.
[20:04] <wols> heatmzzr_: do you use postfix?

[20:09] <Ttech2> Hi,

[20:09] <MacTheMad> jrib no I tried turning it on but it won't... only crappy s3 savage onboard graphics
[20:09] <Ttech2> how do I get RPM packages to be auto-installed?
[20:09] <zarac> usr13,  yeah.. i did that but then it makes it writable for others.. i only want it readable
[20:09] <erUSUL> !rpm | Ttech2
[20:09] <ubotu> Ttech2: RPM is the RedHat Package Management system. Ubuntu uses !APT, not RPM. RPM packages are not supported (the package "alien" can allow installing them, but it's quite dangerous)
[20:09] <jrib> MacTheMad: then you are using metacity and need to google for "wallpapoz"

[20:10] <FluxD> !apache > FluxD
[20:10] <heatmzzr_> check that out sven, and where it says "adding your local domains to postfix"\
[20:10] <MacTheMad> jrib so you're saying I should install that package... should I uninstall compiz then or will it work for other things?
[20:11] <Ttech2> erUSUL: So then you tell me how I will go about installing VMware server.
[20:11] <jrib> MacTheMad: huh? can you rephrase that last question?
[20:11] <erUSUL> !vmware | Ttech2
[20:11] <ubotu> Ttech2: VMWare Player is in Ubuntu's !Multiverse repository (package "vmware-player"), and http://www.easyvmx.com/easyvmx.shtml can create VMs for it. For VMWare Server, instructions can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VMware - See also !virtualizers
[20:12] <erUSUL> Ttech2: ubotu is quite handy; isn't it? ;)
[20:12] <Ttech2> yea, but I need VMware SerVER!
[20:12] <sKy\> how can i check a harddisk for physically errors? (important, just check, not write)
[20:12] <Ttech2> Not VMware Player
[20:12] <MacTheMad> jrib... u say I need to install wallpapoz package... should I also uninstall compiz or will it still be useful in other ways to me
[20:12] <Ttech2> I have VMware server licence,
[20:12] <erUSUL> Ttech2: see the last part of the msg
[20:12] <brobostigon> a bot like ubotu, a piece of software can be very handy.
[20:13] <erUSUL> Ttech2: the sentence begin... and i quote ... "For VMWare *Server* (emphasis mine), instructions can be found etc
[20:13] <s_v_e_n> heatmzzr_:  if you dont want the mailserver to be responsible for a real domain, aou put in: localhost.localdomain, localhost,
[20:13] <s_v_e_n> you can also put myvirtualdomain.lan   because ".lan" is not in use in the internet
[20:14] <jrib> MacTheMad: it's up to you.  compiz is unrelated since you are not using it.  wallpapoz is not packaged, you will need to follow the instructions on the author's website

[20:17] <yubwyub> how should I do to print?
[20:17] <usr13> visual: If you use the file manager, it should open it for you.

[20:17] <loke_> visual: Wait, you shouldn't need root.  just mirage image.jpg

[20:18] <crdlb> NeoPhyte21: did you do what I said to fix it?
[20:18] <NeoPhyte21> erUSUL: im trying to build a package and it says that pkg-config can't find gtk+2.0.pc
[20:18] <FLUxXxX> Hello? Do i need alsa-utils to be running at startup or not?
[20:18] <NeoPhyte21> crdlb: refersh mymemory? tried so much stuff the past few days don't know what ive done anymore lol
[20:18] <erUSUL> !intelhda | a2283mcz
[20:18] <ubotu> a2283mcz: For fixing your Intel HDA sound this page has useful information https://help.ubuntu.com/community/HdaIntelSoundHowto
[20:18] <loke_> FLUxXxX: If you use Alsa, then yes, it's advised.
[20:18] <a2283mcz> how to make c media cm6501 work?
[20:18] <anio> hey
[20:18] <crdlb> NeoPhyte21: you've got an install of gtk in /usr/local that's breaking things
[20:19] <newguyss> hi, I have just added new harddesk to my machine, the new HD contains windows xp, where can I find it ?
[20:19] <crdlb> you installed it from source somehow
[20:19] <NeoPhyte21> crdlb: its gone
[20:19] <erUSUL> NeoPhyte21: you need the dev files search synaptic for libgtk2.6-dev or something like that
[20:19] <anio> If I have a Kubuntu CD, how do I load the KDE desktop from it, instead of having to download it using apt-get?
[20:19] <crdlb> NeoPhyte21: you have nothing in /usr/local/lib/pkgconfig/ now?
[20:19] <FLUxXxX> loke_: what does it do? as far as i know, it saves the volumes i've set before the last reboot and a few other things, right ?
[20:19] <Keule|on>  when usb-hardisks or a usb-mouse is connected when booting the system i have no chance to add other usb-things...... is that a bug? or what is the problem?
[20:19] <ttt--> hi, if gedit goes into some weird mode where it replaces chars when you type (in stead of inserting chars), how do you switch back to normal?
[20:19] <anio> ttt: try pressing the Insert key
[20:20] <NeoPhyte21> crdlb: contents of /usr/local/lib/pkgconfig/: atk.pc       gmodule-2.0.pc         gmodule-no-export-2.0.pc  gthread-2.0.pc  libpcre.pc   libpng.pc

[20:20] <a2283mcz> never mind i'll go to restart my computer
[20:20] <ttt--> anio: thanks, it worked!
[20:20] <anio> np
[20:20] <a2283mcz> thanks anway
[20:20] <a2283mcz> see ya
[20:20] <crdlb> NeoPhyte21: you really should get rid of what you have in /usr/local
[20:20] <loke_> FLUxXxX: I'm pretty sure it includes everything to do with alsa, so I'd imagine you wouldn't have any sound?
[20:20] <anio> anyone? Bueller?
[20:20] <crdlb> NeoPhyte21: installing core libraries in /usr/local is bound to cause problems
[20:20] <loke_> FLUxXxX: You cold always just try and see what happens.
[20:20] <yubwyub> if I just say print and accept 'Generic Postscript' (or default/postscript depending of what program) nothing happens  (no it is not an postscript printer so thats ok...) but if I do install the printer correctly, then I only get strange errormessages (on the printers display!)
[20:20] <erUSUL> NeoPhyte21: is libgtk2.0-dev
[20:21] <Keule|on> when usb-hardisks or a usb-mouse is connected when booting the system i have no chance to add other usb-things...... is that a bug? or what is the problem?
[20:21] <loke_> anio: You would have to set up a repository that searches the CD.
[20:21] <Keule|on> is here noone having this prob?
[20:21] <Keule|on> HELP!
[20:21] <NeoPhyte21> libgtk2.0-dev is already the newest version.
[20:21] <visual> ok thanks trying it now
[20:21] <anio> loke: once I do that, then I can run apt-get install kde-desktop ?
[20:21] <anio> and it will not download?
[20:21] <erUSUL> Keule|on: you should be able to plug new usb hardware after boot
[20:21] <loke_> anio: Prehaps it's as easy as apt-cd
[20:21] <NeoPhyte21> crd: clear all of usr/local?
[20:22] <erUSUL> Keule|on: do you get any error msg?
[20:22] <anio> you mean "apt-cd install kde-desktop" ?
[20:22] <FluxD> Hi, I wasnt to reinstall after removing all my configuration from previous installaion. How can I do this?

[20:22] <crdlb> NeoPhyte21: everything in /usr/local is from stuff you've installed manually

[20:23] <erUSUL> !doesntwork | Keule|on
[20:23] <ubotu> Keule|on: Doesn't work is a strong statement. Does it sit on the couch all day? Does it want more money? Is it on IRC all the time? Please be specific! Examples of what doesn't work tend to help too.

[20:23] <Keule|on> erUSUL: is that a bios problem? or a linux prob
[20:23] <yubwyub> hmm... too much talk here I guess... it is a parallelport printer "HP Laserjet 4 Plus" byt the way, and ubuntu identifies it correcly. but no print... :-(
[20:23] <NeoPhyte21> and how would i go about fixing that? or do i just have to reinstall ubuntu
[20:23] <anio> thank you

[20:32] <buggeredfstab> hrm, interesting - Rhythmbox is not playing, and I don't see any other audio apps running...
[20:32] <Keule|on> so my question was - is that a normal bug erUSUL or somethin different
[20:32] <loke_> wz: Boot up a livecd and mount your / partition.  Modify /etc/fstab to change /dev/hda to /dev/sda
[20:32] <Keule|on> erUSUL: the kind you tell me that is - that the problem can be everything...

[20:38] <buggeredfstab> K, just checking. My Desktop has two, and will not acknowledge on one of them
[20:38] <erUSUL> Keule|on: very weird problem... can you do on terminal 'sudo tail -f /var/log/messages' and then plug a new device ?
[20:38] <enyc> but I dont know how to get/make appropriate boot floppies ;-)
[20:38] <buggeredfstab> What happens when you try to open the DVD from inside the player?

[20:39] <s_v_e_n> freeyo: I still cant see whats wrong ?
[20:39] <keydell> the player cannot load it
[20:39] <wz> I thought it was a more fundamental problem
[20:39] <keydell> it is an empty drive
[20:39] <keydell> it is as if i had not placed the dvd in
[20:39] <jkimball4> how I determine the files that a package provides?

[20:58] <ubotu> LAMP is an acronym for Linux-Apache-MySQL-PHP. However, the term is often used for setups using alternative but different software, such as Perl or Python instead of PHP, and Postgres instead of MySQL. For help with setting up LAMP on Ubuntu, see  https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ApacheMySQLPHP - See also the Server CD installation process (different in Edgy+)
[20:58] <DanaG> Start at the back and read the comments.
[20:58] <usr13> underdaw1: Mount point needs to be dicated only to what you are mounting.
[20:58] <FluxD> s_v_e_n: I did, that was also in the tutorial https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ApacheMySQLPHP

[21:01] <Take0n> Hello guys. I have a problem with ubuntu 7.10 and sound. I think I had sound when I first installed ubuntu but I have been without sound for a couple of days now.. I have tried different solutions (google) but nothing seems to work :\ any help pls?
[21:01] <Keule|on> s_v_e_n: nothing works
[21:02] <jimmious> DanaG: do you think this : http://blackbox.lostwave.net/x-fi/readme.txt  is good enough?
[21:02] <usr13> Must leave now, sorry, but I've got to go to the feed store.
[21:02] <buggeredfstab> usr13 "play" command not found
[21:02] <buggeredfstab> d'oh!
[21:03] <DanaG> Beats me, you'd have to try it.
[21:03] <Jins> I has problem with ubuntu 7.10 and HP b6715b wirreles nether kernel nether lspci see it is anny sugestions?
[21:03] <kst> Take0n: I had a similar problem, but I don't think I can be much help.  I opened up the computer, checked some connections, didn't change anything, put it back together, and now I have sound.  I think I just has the speakers plugged into the wrong connector.
[21:03] <DarkSpirit221> I bought a new MP4 Player, I need some help over here, it says the drive can't be mounted because it has no media inside, can anyone help me please?
[21:04] <Take0n> kst I have a laptop (HP dv2065ea)
[21:04] <Mark761966> Yay. I solved my pidgin problem
[21:04] <Take0n> no support form HP btw..
[21:04] <Mark761966> I think
[21:04] <devinus> if my ubuntu set up with no hostname
[21:04] <devinus> how do i add the hostname?
[21:04] <Bubulle> bamsamba, postfix internet site means you intent to use it as a mail exchanger for some registered domain names. If you only intend to use it to send email from your LAN behind a regular ISP line, you should choos satellite site and provide your ISP SMTP email relay
[21:04] <kst> Take0n: You see, I *told* you I couldn't be much help!  8-)}
[21:04] <Take0n> haha
[21:05] <Take0n> well thanks for trying ;)
[21:05] <s_v_e_n> FluxD: have a look at you canfigs, espacially /etc/apache2/sites_enabled
[21:05] <p_quarles> devinus: use the "hostname" command :) e.g., sudo hostname my-desktop
[21:05] <bamsamba> ok, Bubulle i suppose i could always register a free domain name.
[21:06] <DarkSpirit221> I bought a new MP4 Player, I need some help over here, it says the drive can't be mounted because it has no media inside, can anyone help me please?
[21:06] <Jins> but some tim ago it was seened but now nothing
[21:06] <FluxD> s_v_e_n: only 1 site is enabled
[21:06] <s_v_e_n> FluxD: try       http://localhost/apache2-default/
[21:06] <s_v_e_n> FluxD: pasbin the config please
[21:06] <Bubulle> bamsamba, to use Postfix as a mail exchanger you absolutely need a static wan IP address from you ISP
[21:07] <Mark761966> I should recheck

[21:07] <Forbr4d3> i am having a problem with sshd keys since i use dhcp how do i make new keys?
[21:07] <DanaG> ACtaully,
[21:07] <DanaG> you need to edit both /etc/hostname and /etc/hosts
[21:07] <Mark761966> www.ifthisisa realwebsiteilleatyourhat.com
[21:07] <DanaG> to make it persisent.
[21:07] <bamsamba>  Bubulle I suppose I've got a static IP- its an ADSL connection, problem is, i have internet access through a Windows BOX via ICS. so i take it I should just leave it be?
[21:08] <DanaG> er, persistent.
[21:08] <p_quarles> Forbr4d3: to make new keys you can use the "ssh-keygen" command
[21:08] <Mark761966> www.ubuntu.com
[21:08] <FluxD> s_v_e_n: according to the tutorial I disabled the default site and enabled /home/user/public_html as root dir

[21:09] <croutezt> im new to linux and need help installing ubuntu server
[21:09] <Bubulle> bamsamba, theres no reason you want to make an MX over a DSL line, which mainly dynamic assigned IP and even more behind a NATed LAN IP. You onwly need to set it up as satellite sie and provide it the SMTP relay your ISP provides you with.

[21:13] <kyle__> sven: I just want something easily shuffled around
[21:13] <Flannel> Forbr4d3: For running a ssh server, you should look into some sort of dynamic dns serves (like dyndns), since its easier than remembering an IP to connect to.  You can also use that as your host in key generation
[21:13] <s_v_e_n> Keule|on: pleas be more specific. Do you have a starage divece ? can you plug it and tell wahts in dmesg after ?

[21:14] <PirateHead> How do I add a new Service to System -> Administration -> Services to be started on computer startup?
[21:14] <astro76> PirateHead, if it's not already you can add it using update-rc.d and it will start on start-up
[21:14] <Mark761966> Take.  Do you have the volume control application installed?
[21:14] <Take0n> yeah I have a volume tool in the upper bar
[21:14] <Take0n> not muted and the volume 100%
[21:15] <FluxD> PirateHead: I think thats a service has soething to do with init.d ?

[21:16] <Mark761966> Or other
[21:16] <Take0n> I have a laptop
[21:17] <Take0n> so I guess built in speakers?
[21:17] <FluxD> PirateHead: I am not sure how u add stuff to init.d
[21:17] <Mark761966> Yep, built in
[21:17] <kyle__> DarkSpirit221: oh so its the gui thats doing it then. Does the player have builtin storage? does it have a card slot?
[21:17] <Mark761966> Are you sure the speakers aren't faulty?
[21:17] <astro76> PirateHead, there's a bunch of examples at the end, update-rc.d tor defaults would work unless you need it to start after/before other things

[21:18] <Grav3Mind> *ubuntu
[21:18] <astro76> PirateHead, then you would need something like the second example
[21:18] <kyle__> Cr3ature: you end up making an extended partition, and then put partitions in there
[21:18] <DarkSpirit221> kyle__: It has a MicroSD card storage, and built-in 2GB of memory
[21:18] <Dr_willis> Cr3ature,  i You can have 4 primary partitions. of which one can be an extended partition. THAT one can hold 1 or more logical partitions
[21:18] <Take0n> Mark761966: yes I run windows vista aswell (in the same computer)
[21:18] <PirateHead> astro76: When run, it says that tor already has an init.d entry.
[21:18] <FluxD> s_v_e_n: drwxr-xr-x for /home/myname/public_html
[21:18] <Take0n> and I have sound in vista so I am pretty sure
[21:19] <PirateHead> astro76: Will using update-rc.d make it start automatically?
[21:19] <astro76> PirateHead, yeah you did say you started it with invoke-rc.d, *smacks head*
[21:19] <kyle__> DarkSpirit221: it didn't give you another icon on the desktop when you plugged it in?
[21:19] <astro76> PirateHead, it isn't now?
[21:19] <Grav3Mind> has anyone one ever heard of a way to monitor cpu and gpu temps through a ubuntu live dvd?
[21:19] <DarkSpirit221> kyle__: That's what made me get worried...
[21:19] <DarkSpirit221> kyle__: No icon...
[21:19] <Mark761966> Is it possible Vista is hijacking the soundcard?
[21:19] <Bubulle> 0
[21:20] <Take0n> no since I use 2 different partitions..
[21:20] <p_quarles> DarkSpirit221: what kind of player is it?
[21:20] <PirateHead> astro76: Are init scripts run automatically, or is there a list somewhere of which init scripts to run?
[21:20] <Mark761966> Okay
[21:20] <Take0n> I boot either in vista or ubuntu
[21:20] <Mark761966> Lemme see what my soundcard is
[21:20] <DarkSpirit221> p_quarles: ZiPY Tiger Mp4
[21:21] <s_v_e_n> FluxD: correct - is there a index.html in it  -  then it seams that apache is pointing to the wrong directory
[21:21] <slipttees> dawnn..pidgin issue aim and msn login!
[21:21] <FluxD> s_v_e_n: yup
[21:21] <astro76> PirateHead, it will run if there is a link to it in /etc/rc2.d/, since 2 is the default runlevel, update-rc.d is supposed to add those links
[21:21] <kyle__> odd, usually google doesn't give me forign language results
[21:21] <linduxed> Mark761966: please specify "hijacking"
[21:21] <Mark761966> I have an Nvidia Corporation MCP61 High Definition Audio (rev a2) sound card, Take
[21:21] <Take0n> no big difference I suppose?
[21:22] <kyle__> DarkSpirit221: pastebin your dmesg
[21:22] <DarkSpirit221> kyle__: dmesg?
[21:22] <ricanelite> why is that the login window the resolution is low but when i login in it changes to 1280x720
[21:22] <croutezt> ok im trying to setup a proxy server with ubunto server and i cant even get the server software to install
[21:22] <Mark761966> It's an NVidia, Take. And it's working fine
[21:22] <PirateHead> astro76: Tor is in there, so I suppose it must be starting automatically. I wonder why it doesn't show up under the Services GUI, then.
[21:22] <s_v_e_n> FuxD:  can you patebin   /etc/apache2/httpd.conf  to  http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org
[21:22] <kyle__> DarkSpirit221: console command, gives you recent kernel messages, like what the kernel thinks of what you plugged in
[21:22] <Mark761966> Maybe it's your driver
[21:22] <ricanelite> talking to me Mark?
[21:22] <Take0n> as I said from the beginning I think I had sound when I first installed ubuntu
[21:23] <FluxD> s_v_e_n: sure a sec
[21:23] <Take0n> like login sound etc.
[21:23] <Dr_willis> !tor
[21:23] <ubotu> TOR is a project aiming to provide anonymous connections via specialized !proxies - See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/TOR for information and help - Note that TOR is blocked on most Ubuntu IRC channels, please see !hostmask and !tor-gpg
[21:23] <DarkSpirit221> kyle__: Ok, second please.
[21:23] <Mark761966> Can you think of anything you've done since then that might have disabled it, take?
[21:23] <Dr_willis> dosent tor also need that other proxy tool installed also?  perhaps tor only spawns as needed?
[21:24] <FluxD> s_v_e_n: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/48368/
[21:24] <ricanelite> you know how windows has a rollover where if you do something wrong you could rollover back to a certain perioud
[21:24] <ricanelite> is that possible in Ubuntu>
[21:24] <Take0n> hm.. installed sound software through add/remove etc..
[21:24] <Take0n> mixers and so on
[21:24] <Mark761966> Wait.  Sometimes programs like Audacity can hijack the soundcard
[21:24] <DarkSpirit221> kyle__: http://pastebin.com/f2c458bc1
[21:24] <FluxD> s_v_e_n: I was surprised about that file too it was basically empty
[21:24] <Mark761966> Killall esd, Take
[21:24] <Mark761966> in a terminal
[21:24] <Grav3Mind> does anyone know the command to install wine for ubuntu through terminal?
[21:24] <kyle__> ricanelite: i dont think so
[21:24] <FluxD> s_v_e_n: and I added that servername part
[21:24] <ricanelite> does anyone play Urban Terror?
[21:24] <Dr_willis> ricanelite,  you mean 'rollback' :)  - not seen a similier feature in any disrto. Not much of a need for it.
[21:24] <ricanelite> okay
[21:24] <matt____> i wrote a script to install liberations fonts, probably in all distros. it's very simple, but i don't know if it works on other machines. can a few people try it out for me? and for the safety of EVERYTHING, please check the script before running. linuxhack3r.com/Downloads/Scripts/liberation.sh Please tell me you're going to try it!
[21:24] <PirateHead> Grav3Mind: why not use Synaptic?
[21:25] <ricanelite> no because i feel like my ubuntu is not running right
[21:25] <ricanelite> like when i lock in the sound cuts in and out
[21:25] <Dr_willis> matt____,  ive seen ubuntu pacakges for those fonts. :)
[21:25] <kyle__> DarkSpirit221: #
[21:25] <kyle__> [  281.895833] sd 3:0:0:0: [sda]<PHONE_NUMBER>-byte hardware sectors (1986 MB)
[21:25] <kyle__> lol it added a line.
[21:25] <Take0n> mark I disabled it
[21:25] <ricanelite> and if i run Urban Terror the mouse locks when i take a couple of steps
[21:25] <Grav3Mind> cause im usng a live cd
[21:25] <Grav3Mind> lol
[21:25] <Grav3Mind> or dvd rather
[21:25] <matt____> Dr_willis: where? hmmm
[21:25] <ricanelite> do you think i should just reinstall linux?
[21:25] <Airbottl1> hey, i tried again to get crontab working, but still no succes, i made 2 little scripts to start and stop rtorrent, and i want them execute with crontab, but there is no screen starting, and i have no idea what can be wrong, the information i have is pasted here: http://paste.debian.net/44990
[21:25] <kyle__> DarkSpirit221: check if theres any partititions on /dev/sda "sudo fdisk -l /dev/sda"
[21:25] <s_v_e_n> FluxD:   and    /etc/apache2/sites-available/mysite
[21:26] <DarkSpirit221> kyle__: How?
[21:26] <astro76> PirateHead, not sure, but seeing as Services doesn't have close to all the items in init.d, I'd guess it's just a selected list of services which a user should be starting/stopping
[21:26] <Airbottl1> the problem is that i cannot let rtorrent run at daytime, because there are many computers on this one internet connection and rtorrent slows it down quite much, so i have to start it at 1.00h and shut it down at 9.00h but i'm not always here to do it manually so i thought that crontab would be a possibility
[21:26] <PirateHead> Grav3Mind: The DVD still has Synaptic. If you're determined to do it by command line, you've still got a choice to make. Do you want the latest Wine, or Ubuntu's packaged version of Wine?
[21:26] <Dr_willis> matt____,  somne ubuntu tutorial/info site i found them mentioned. let me see
[21:26] <kyle__> DarkSpirit221: check if theres any partititions on /dev/sda ***** Run this command ----> "sudo fdisk -l /dev/sda"
[21:26] <matt____> Dr_willis: okk
[21:26] <DarkSpirit221> kyle__: Ow, sorry didn't see it :P
[21:26] <Grav3Mind> i want the one that will just install
[21:26] <Grav3Mind> no compliling
[21:27] <matt____> someone review/test my script for installing liberation fonts? http://www.linuxhack3r.com/Downloads/Scripts/liberation.sh
[21:27] <Grav3Mind> if thats even required
[21:27] <Airbottl1> can someone help me out with that crontab?
[21:27] <Mark761966> Sorry, take, 3 convos going
[21:27] <FluxD> s_v_e_n: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/48369/
[21:27] <Mark761966> Okay. Now play a soundfile
[21:27] <kyle__> matt____: why from https?
[21:27] <Grav3Mind> so i guess the one for ubuntu specifically
[21:27] <LjL> Grav3Mind: add Universe, and then install the 'wine' package
[21:27] <Dr_willis> matt____, http://crunchbang.org/archives/2007/10/31/liberation-fonts-for-ubuntu/
[21:27] <matt____> kyle__: hmmmm..its not, is it?
[21:27] <Take0n> nothing..
[21:27] <Mark761966> Giid
[21:27] <matt____> kyle__: oh, the download?
[21:27] <Mark761966> Good
[21:27] <kyle__> yea the download
[21:27] <s_v_e_n> FuxD: /etc/apache2/httpd.conf is ampty, it is includes by /etc/apache2/apache2.conf
[21:27] <DarkSpirit221> kyle__: http://pastebin.com/fdfbaeae
[21:28] <Mark761966> now type esd in the terminal
[21:28] <matt____> kyle__: um..i just copied the location, i don't know why
[21:28] <kyle__> DarkSpirit221: oh, just mount /dev/sda1 somewhere
[21:28] <Take0n> The program 'esd' can be found in the following packages:
[21:28] <FluxD> s_v_e_n: it as empty when I installed
[21:28] <Take0n> blablabla
[21:28] <Dr_willis> we need to get a !liberation factoid for the bot pointing there. :)
[21:28] <Mark761966> You can't run it as a command?
[21:28] <Dr_willis> or add it to the !fonts factoid
[21:28] <Mark761966> Intersting
[21:28] <Mark761966> I thought you could
[21:28] <s_v_e_n> FluxD: you forget to change    DocumentRoot
[21:28] <DarkSpirit221> kyle__: so sda1 is the player? How do I mount it?
[21:28] <PirateHead> Grav3Mind: sudo apt-get install wine
[21:29] <p_quarles> DarkSpirit221: sudo mkdir /media/mp4player, then
[21:29] <p_quarles> sudo mount /dev/sda1 /media/mp4player
[21:29] <kyle__> DarkSpirit221: make a directory somewhere "mkdir /mnt/sda1" lets say, and then do mount /dev/sda1 /mnt/sda1 -o uid=1000
[21:29] <s_v_e_n> FluxD:  Change the DocumentRoot to point to the new location. For example, /home/user/public_html/    Change the Directory directive, replace <Directory  /var/www/> to <Directory /home/user/public_html/
[21:29] <FluxD> s_v_e_n: the "default" site is disabled now. I just changed documentroot and directory according to tutorial
[21:29] <Mark761966> Okay. Open the run dialog and type esd in there
[21:30] <FluxD> s_v_e_n: it is like that
[21:30] <s_v_e_n> FluxD: where did you change that ?
[21:30] <Take0n> could not open file://esd
[21:30] <DarkSpirit221> kyle__: "You must specify the filesystem type"
[21:30] <matt____> kyle__: but, i'm wondering, since i'm in kubuntu and only kubuntu, will the script work for other distros, even ones not based on teh debian?
[21:31] <FluxD> s_v_e_n: the pastebin example is disabled let me show u the other one. Do u know why httpd.conf is empty?
[21:31] <Mark761966> Damn
[21:31] <kyle__> DarkSpirit221: try adding -t vfat
[21:31] <anas> could u tell me how to copy to a mobile hard-disk .??
[21:31] <kyle__> DarkSpirit221: usually it autodetects fine
[21:31] <Mark761966> Restart, Take?
[21:31] <some_idiot> yo developers .. when is the flashplugin-nonfree going to get fixed for amd64?
[21:31] <anas> how could i copy to a mobile hard disk ??
[21:31] <s_v_e_n> FluxD: Yes because it is includesd by apache2.conf - ther is all the other stuff
[21:31] <Dr_willis> anas,  depends on what you want to do exactly. you can dd it to a file.
[21:31] <s_v_e_n> you nomaly dont hae to change it
[21:32] <kyle__> matt____: the silliest answer to your question is to probe if X distro, say, fedora uses /usr/share/fonts/truetype/
[21:32] <s_v_e_n> change httpd.conf bestter
[21:32] <DarkSpirit221> kyle__: What is it supposed to happen?
[21:32] <kyle__> matt____: also some people dont have wget
[21:32] <Mark761966> There's a way around flash not working in AMD64
[21:32] <matt____> kyle__: and if fc-cache is universal
[21:32] <kyle__> DarkSpirit221: it doesn't complain, and then you can go to /mnt/sda1 and look at whats inside
[21:32] <some_idiot> Mark761966: can you give me an URL ?
[21:32] <Take0n> mark I will do so in 2 mins
[21:32] <Mark761966> Hang on, idiot
[21:32] <some_idiot> Mark761966: I'm reading the ubuntu bug forums, and not seeing it

[21:39] <some_idiot> oh right, the geasy solutio nis to have a 32bit firefox :-)
[21:39] <chazco> hi... any idea why Flash videos wont play in Firefox? I just reinstalled Ubuntu, added the restricted-extras but no luck

[21:39] <tyczek> Did anyone had that problem? When I set XV in mplayer, the image of video in fullscreen looks really bad... when I set GL it looks great, but audio is not synchronised with video?
[21:39] <Montoya_> you need fwcutter
[21:39] <s_v_e_n> FluxD: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/48371/
[21:39] <Flare183> Montoya_:> who does?
[21:39] <Montoya_> bob801

[21:40] <bob801> I'm not sure what the card type is. Can you direct me how to find out? This is my parents PC and they have no idea. I knew where to look for something like this in XP, but in Linux I'm a total noob.
[21:40] <mirak> is it possible to connect to GDM login screen with VNC ?
[21:40] <Montoya_> this: http://linuxwireless.org/en/users/Drivers/b43#firmware
[21:40] <FluxD> s_v_e_n: what did u change?
[21:40] <Montoya_> use fwcutter with that
[21:40] <LjL> wy, there are a few tools... however most require having been run *before*, when the system was in a known-good state. a simple tools is "debsums", but it's not really effective against most attackers, it's more geared towards checking for corruption. there is also an in-progress blueprint at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/IntegrityCheck , which expands on the idea of md5'ing against packages

[21:42] <LjL> wy: debsums will check every file that belongs to a package, if md5sums are provided by the package.
[21:42] <s_v_e_n> Fluxd: wait
[21:42] <freeyo> i am booting from ext hd
[21:42] <_____^Stinger^__> how can i set up my dsl connection on ubuntu, doing the sudo pppoeconf. How to set up the network properties?
[21:42] <FluxD> s_v_e_n: chown didnt do anything
[21:42] <LjL> rencore_: have you tried asking in #kubuntu?
[21:42] <s_v_e_n> FluxD   chmod 755 /home/albert I mean  - are you still here ?
[21:42] <freeyo> cant find anything specific for it
[21:42] <darksync> im trying to install ubuntu is it normal it stay on 15 procent detecting filesystems  for like 10 min cdroms keeps spinning an hd to ?
[21:42] <[chr0n0s]> i copied all my files from / to another partition sda5 and deleted the / partition.. now i need to boot from sda5.. how do i do this
[21:42] <bob801> Flare183, it's a Broadcom.
[21:43] <FluxD> s_v_e_n: I am still here?
[21:43] <wy> LjL: Thanks
[21:43] <Flare183> ok then you need fwcutter and the fireware packages
[21:43] <Flare183> firmware
[21:43] <Montoya_> I need serious help with my Broadcom 4400
[21:43] <chazco> ah... Flash 9 seems to have broke Ubuntu-restricted-extras
[21:43] <LjL> [chr0n0s]: hit "e" while at your GRUB menu, and change the boot options. make root /dev/sda5
[21:43] <Montoya_> bob801 > http://linuxwireless.org/en/users/Drivers/b43#firmware
[21:43] <Flare183> Montoya_, bob801:> you want me to send you both the deb files?
[21:43] <Zylstra555> Hi, I need to connect my Ubuntu computer to my Windows Workgroup, but it says it cannot display the folder contents of my network. How do I fix this issue?
[21:44] <Montoya_> please, I need the deb files for the ethernet
[21:44] <Fre1> samba?
[21:44] <FluxD> !network | Zylstra555
[21:44] <ubotu> Zylstra555: Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs
[21:44] <Montoya_> I tried the Broadcom drivers and that didn't work
[21:44] <wy> LjL: It's flashing really fast and I can see nothing. Will it generate some report in the end?
[21:44] <FluxD> oops
[21:44] <Montoya_><EMAIL_ADDRESS>[21:44] <Flare183> !samba | Zylstra555
[21:44] <ubotu> Zylstra555: samba is is the way to cooperate with Windows environments. Links with more info: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MountWindowsSharesPermanently and http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/serverguide/C/windows-networking.html - Samba can be administered via the web with SWAT
[21:44] <Zylstra555> FluxD: WiFi?
[21:44] <bob801> Flare183, if you can send me the files, that'd be great.
[21:44] <darksync> im trying to install ubuntu is it normal it stay on 15 procent detecting filesystems  for like 10 min cdroms keeps spinning an hd to ?
[21:44] <FluxD> Zylstra555: wrong name :) ssorry
[21:44] <Flare183> bob801:> ok one sec
[21:45] <LjL> wy: no. you should make it not output files that are OK, by either adding « | grep -v OK » at the end, or using « debsums -s » (i suggest the former, since i'm not entirely sure what -s does aside from not showing "OK" files)
[21:45] <freeyo> someone help with this grub error
[21:45] <Montoya_> mine can do wired network but it doesn't do ipv6 or anything
[21:45] <Steve^> when using ssh in the terminal, my host says I don't have SSH access... so why does it work through Nautilus?
[21:45] <Alyx|Live> join #Geubuntu
[21:45] <Montoya_> flow control is off, link is not ready, no ipv6 routers present
[21:45] <babo_> does anyone have quemu working in ubuntu ?
[21:46] <CoasterMaster> is there any way to transfer files to my windows mobile phone via USB with Ubuntu/
[21:46] <Flare183> bob801:> here is the fwcutter download don't install yet:  http://filebin.ca/wveegz/bcm43xx-fwcutter_20060501-5_i386.deb
[21:46] <babo_> I can't help thinking that the 'error' with the framebuffer in ubuntu isn't just a vmware plot ...
[21:46] <SpookyET> Is there a grep/egrep/sed extension or replacement that supports full regex?
[21:46] <babo_> CoasterMaster, probably not.
[21:46] <jacob> is there a way to change the splash screen in openoffice.org?
[21:46] <wy> LjL: It works pretty well
[21:47] <babo_> CoasterMaster, unless they wrote linux software for your phone ...
[21:47] <wy> LjL: Some packages are without checksums
[21:47] <Flare183> bob801:> Here is the second file, the firmware: http://filebin.ca/czwbee/bcm43xx-firmware_1.3-1ubuntu2_all.deb
[21:47] <freeyo> do i need an os selector
[21:47] <Flare183> bob801:> download it don't install yet
[21:47] <Flare183> brb
[21:47] <kyle__> freeyo: for?
[21:48] <freeyo> booting ubuntu from externsl hd
[21:48] <CoasterMaster> babo_, it's a fairly standard phone that works with activesync, so do you know if there are any activesync-ish programs?
[21:48] <Flare183> i'm back
[21:48] <darksync> im trying to install ubuntu is it normal it stay on 15 procent detecting filesystems  for like 10 min cdroms keeps spinning an hd to ?
[21:48] <Flare183> bob801:> downloading them?
[21:48] <Montoya_> darksync:
[21:48] <Montoya_> that happened to me
[21:48] <Montoya_> cancel the install,
[21:48] <Montoya_> and start over
[21:48] <LjL> wy: if you add the "-g" options, it will probably get better... although some packages will most likely still remain without checksums. https://wiki.ubuntu.com/IntegrityCheck mostly tries to address that but it's not ready yet
[21:48] <bob801> I've got the downloaded.
[21:48] <LjL> !enter | Montoya_
[21:48] <ubotu> Montoya_: Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation!
[21:48] <Montoya_> that is,if you want to erase all prior stuff
[21:49] <Flare183> bob801:> both of them?
[21:49] <Montoya_> sorry
[21:49] <wy> LjL: I got many errors like " checksum mismatch linux-image-2.6.22-14-generic file /lib/modules/2.6.22-14-generic/modules.inputmap"
[21:49] <darksync> thxs montaya :)
[21:49] <bob801> yes
[21:49] <jacob> is there a way to change the slash screen for openoffice.org?
[21:49] <CoasterMaster> darksync, is this a CD you burned yourself?
[21:49] <Montoya_> darksync: remember, this is only if you want to erase all volumes
[21:49] <LjL> wy: i've seen that happening with those kernel files, should be a false positive.
[21:49] <darksync> yes i burned myself
[21:49] <Flare183> bob801:> ok now install the firmware first
[21:50] <wy> LjL: Maybe modified by the system at boot?
[21:50] <darksync> i check the cd :)
[21:50] <Flare183> bob801:> then install the fwcutter
[21:50] <bob801> Flare183: OK, the firmware is installed.
[21:50] <LjL> wy: i guess by depmod
[21:50] <Flare183> bob801:> now install the fwcutter
[21:50] <FluxD> s_v_e_n: still there?
[21:51] <s_v_e_n> yes
[21:51] <mcknin> hey guys, are there any good tutorials on setting up RAID5 (software, not hardware) through the initial installer? or should i just do it after the basic install?
[21:51] <jditt1> can someone can someone help me with cron jobs?  i am running feisty and i setup a cron job using kcron job runs great just like it's supposed to but as soon as i logout the job will not run.  they only seem to run when i'm logged in.
[21:51] <Patchak> hey there.... what would be the best program to rip cd's on ubuntu, sound quality wise??
[21:51] <s_v_e_n> FluxD: did you do chmod 755 /home/albert   ?
[21:51] <wy> LjL: probably. This is a fairly useful tool. I always had trouble to keep my system in healthy state.
[21:51] <FluxD> s_v_e_n: yes
[21:51] <bob801> Flare183: got an error. it reads "Wrong architecture 'i386'"
[21:52] <s_v_e_n> FluxD. and no changd ? then   ServerName ?
[21:52] <Flare183> bob801:> your using AMD right?
[21:52] <Montoya_> jditt1: I think that's how cron jobs work, you can't logout
[21:52] <p_quarles> Patchak: the application is less important than the codec -- so, any app that supports .flac is good
[21:52] <bob801> Flare183: This is an AMD
[21:52] <Patchak> p_quarles, ok....you have any suggestion?
[21:52] <bob801> Flare183: should i just try it again?
[21:52] <Flare183> no
[21:53] <Flare183> bob801:> hold on
[21:53] <bob801> Flare183: My blue light showing the wireless card came on...?
[21:53] <Montoya_> Flare183: I will be right back, looking forward to getting help with card!
[21:53] <jditt1> montoya cron is supposed to be automatic it runs in the background as a daemon  but i'm running the script as root
[21:53] <p_quarles> Patchak: I use K3b currently. another good one is grip
[21:53] <wy> If a file from package A is overwritten by package B, but that backup file is broken. If I reinstall package A, will it automatically make a backup file?
[21:53] <LjL> wy: the logical complement would be a program that finds files that are not owned by any package... i thought i had such a thing in mind, but can't find it right now
[21:53] <s_v_e_n> FluxD: line 5 in http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/48371/   and then $ sudo /etc/iniit.d/apache2 restart
[21:53] <FluxD> ok
[21:54] <wy> LjL: That will be useful
[21:54] <LjL> wy, if package B tries to overwrite a file that's in package A, dpkg will refuse to install package B unless you force
[21:54] <jditt1> brb
[21:54] <[chr0n0s]> LjL, i tried that.. but my ubuntu gets stuck at abt 2% in the loadig screen
[21:54] <saxartist> Does anybody know why I might have this stupid 3x3 grid on my windows when moving or resizing them?
[21:54] <Patchak> p_quarles, thanks
[21:54] <Flare183> LjL:> Can't you install a i386 deb file on a 64-bit machine some how?
[21:55] <crolle17> i want to create a postgres-db and need to account as postgres-user for this. but i don't know the password for the postgres-user. how to get it?
[21:55] <LjL> !chroot > Flare183    (Flare183, see the private message from Ubotu) i have no idea
[21:55] <wy> LjL: I didn't force it and it installed successfully. When I use dpkg -S on that file. It shows "diversion by xorg-driver-fglrx from: /usr/lib/libGL.so.1.2"
[21:55] <Jack_Sparrow> wy: Can we assume all packages are from the standard repos for the purpose of this discussion..an not custom ... added ones
[21:55] <Flare183> Thanks
[21:55] <SpookyET> I'm looking for a good black Gnome theme.
[21:55] <FluxD> is chmod 755 / a good idea?
[21:56] <wy> LjL: It's like that the package system has backed up the files that was overwritten.
[21:56] <saxartist> do you guys have a 3x3 grid on your windows when you move them?
[21:56] <PriceChild> FluxD, incredibly so
[21:56] <FluxD> PriceChild: hoping it does nothing bad?
[21:56] <markus__> how do I install windows when the setup can't detect a hard drive
[21:56] <PriceChild> FluxD, it breaks your system
[21:56] <jditt1> ok back
[21:56] <wy> Jack_Sparrow: But even with packages from the standard repos (including restricted), you will get files overwritten sometimes.
[21:56] <s_v_e_n> FluxD: 755 is defualt for /
[21:56] <saxartist> markus__: I had that problem
[21:56] <RSWD> Can someone help me add resolutions to X?
[21:56] <LjL> wy: ah yes, that's a special case i think, but i don't really know how diversions work
[21:56] <mcknin> hey guys, are there any good tutorials on setting up RAID5 (software, not hardware) through the initial installer? or should i just do it after the basic install?
[21:57] <LjL> !fixres > RSWD    (RSWD, see the private message from Ubotu)
[21:57] <PriceChild> FluxD, if you do it recursively i mean...
[21:57] <FluxD> PriceChild: not recursively
[21:57] <Jack_Sparrow> wy: So I can assume from your answer that you are not working with the standard repos...
[21:57] <bob801> Flare183: Anything I need to do?
[21:57] <PriceChild> FluxD, why on earth are you messing with it?
[21:57] <jditt1> can someone help me with cron jobs?  i am running feisty and i setup a cron job using kcron job runs great just like it's supposed to but as soon as i logout the job will not run.  they only seem to run when i'm logged in.
[21:57] <Flare183> bob801:> not really I'm trying to find the place I got the i386 packages orginally
[21:57] <markus__> What do I do then>
[21:57] <wy> Jack_Sparrow: An example is libGL.so.1.2. The accelerated drivers overwrite the mesa soft driver. I don't know if this is correct though
[21:58] <FluxD> somethng someone in #apache
[21:58] <saxartist> markus__: if you're asking me, I haven't solved it yet
[21:58] <saxartist> sorry
[21:58] <markus__> oh lol
[21:58] <s_v_e_n> !windows|markus__
[21:58] <ubotu> markus__: For discussion and help with Microsoft Windows, please visit ##windows. See http://launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/+bug/1 http://linux.oneandoneis2.org/LNW.htm and !equivalents
[21:58] <LjL> [chr0n0s]: see "temporary grub editing" at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/TTYError ... that's all i know about it i'm afraid
[21:59] <Jack_Sparrow> markus__: what did you find earlier when you did fdisk -l   ?
[21:59] <Flare183> bob801:> found it, scroll down to were you see firmware installation:  http://linuxwireless.org/en/users/Drivers/b43
[21:59] <[chr0n0s]> LjL, thanks
[21:59] <n215> i have trouble with my 5 channel sound blaster, it seems to be working, but voice is all messed up
[21:59] <Flare183> bob801:> follow that
[21:59] <n215> im using only two speakers
[21:59] <n215> little ones
[21:59] <babo_> CoasterMaster, not really dude no. I have a nokia and I didn't even bother to hunt down linux drivers + software for it cause I'm fairly sure they don't exist
[22:00] <babo_> any quemu fans here ?
[22:00] <babo_> qemu
[22:00] <freeyo> help with grub geom error
[22:00] <LjL> !anyone
[22:00] <ubotu> A large amount of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..."  Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out?
[22:00] <bob801> Flare183: OK, I'm on the website now. I'm at the firmware part.
[22:00] <Flare183> bob801:> do what it says
[22:01] <Flare183> bob801:> I built the deb packages you downloaded (you don't need them anymore) from that website
[22:01] <FluxD> s_v_e_n: changed line 5 same thing
[22:02] <bmwerks> is this possible: loading ubuntu unto a laptop over a lan connection
[22:02] <bob801> Flare183: OK, stupid question...how do I know if I have "b43" or "b43legacy"?
[22:02] <Jack_Sparrow> !install | bmwerks
[22:02] <ubotu> bmwerks: Ubuntu can be installed in lots of ways. Please see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation for documentation. Problems during install?

[22:02] <s_v_e_n> FluxD: /join #apache
[22:02] <heatmzzr> i dled jre-6u3-linux-i586=rpm.bin .... how do i install it
[22:02] <Jack_Sparrow> !rpm | heatmzzr
[22:02] <ubotu> heatmzzr: RPM is the RedHat Package Management system. Ubuntu uses !APT, not RPM. RPM packages are not supported (the package "alien" can allow installing them, but it's quite dangerous)
[22:03] <astro76> !packages | heatmzzr
[22:03] <ubotu> heatmzzr: You can browse and search for Ubuntu packages using !Synaptic, !Adept, "apt-cache search <keywords or regex>", the "apt:/" URL in KDE, or online at http://packages.ubuntu.com - Ubuntu has about 20000 packages available, so please *search* for an official package before installing things in awkward ways!
[22:03] <bob801> Flare183: Also, the first file downloaded and installed correctly. Should I just install the fwcutter part?
[22:03] <astro76> heatmzzr, basically just sudo apt-get install sun-java6-plugin, and you are set
[22:03] <carsten> Hi all
[22:03] <Sier> hi
[22:04] <babo_> is there some kind of qemu veil of silence or something ? I ask a question on irc - nothing. I ask on the forums - nothing. I ask on the mailing list - nothing.
[22:04] <Flare183> bob801:> no
[22:04] <carsten> anybody having a Xen Howto to run window on Ubuntu ?
[22:04] <ttt--> are there any rally games i can install with the synaptic package manager?
[22:04] <Jack_Sparrow> babo_: then there must not be many FANS out there.. eh?
[22:04] <wy> LjL: I used -g to generate the missing MD5 sums, but when I run debsums again, it still reports md5sums missing for those packages
[22:04] <bmwerks> can i install ubuntu over lan connection?
[22:04] <babo_> Jack_Sparrow, how could there not be any fans out there ? It's the only free OS VM ...
[22:04] <n215> how do i reset sound setting to default?
[22:04] <bob801> Flare183: OK, thanks for all of your help. I'll follow the directions and let you know if it works.
[22:05] <Flare183> bob801:> and one more thing
[22:05] <LjL> wy, it will only generate md5sums for packages that you have in the cache... so you'll need to "sudo apt-get --download-only install <all-those-packages-that-don't-have-md5s>" for them to be generated, i'm afraid
[22:05] <Jack_Sparrow> bmwerks: Did you read the link on the different ways to install Ubuntu that I linked to you earlier
[22:05] <RSWD> I have checked my xorg.conf and the FixResolutionHowTo article, and my XFCE only lets me display in 640x800, 800x600, and default, which I'm not sure what is it.
[22:05] <Flare183> bob801:> when all is installed open a terminal and type in sudo modprobe bcm43xx
[22:05] <PirateHead> How do I start an app in a sandbox such that it is disallowed network access?
[22:05] <wols> bob801: maybe if you learnt how to ask, it would kinda help?
[22:05] <Jack_Sparrow> babo_: You asked your question in multiple places and got no response.. that itself should be a clue about how many people use it
[22:05] <heatmzzr> tried to open proggy, said i needed newer version of jre, how do i upgrade in ubuntu
[22:06] <Flannel> heatmzzr: what version of ubuntu are you using?
[22:06] <wols> bob801: for example, WHAT error
[22:06] <heatmzzr> 7.10
[22:06] <babo_> Pay attention everyone ! There's been a plot by vmware to mess up the framebuffer in gutsy and thus break qemu compatibility ...
[22:06] <PirateHead> heatmzzr: Download the java6-jre and run update-alternatives
[22:06] <PirateHead> heatmzzr: STFE for more info
[22:06] <SammyP> Can anyone help me insert Japanese characters on my computer?
[22:06] <Jack_Sparrow> !offtopic | babo_
[22:06] <ubotu> babo_: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome!
[22:06] <RSWD> PirateHead: I have checked my xorg.conf and the FixResolutionHowTo article, and my XFCE only lets me display in 640x800, 800x600, and default, which I'm not sure what is it.
[22:06] <wols> bob801: go to channel #911. they look for more conspiracy theorists
[22:07] <babo_> Jack_Sparrow, err ... this is ubuntu support
[22:07] <MGalaxy> I have a problem with automounting a .ISO file in /etc/fstab, because its path includes some Space characters, how should I solve it?
[22:07] <wy> LjL: If you find a way to find those files not in any package, please tell me
[22:07] <RSWD> MGalaxy: Put path in quotes?
[22:07] <wols> babo_: go to channel #911. they look for more conspiracy theorists
[22:07] <PirateHead> RSWD: I don't know much about Xfce or fixing resolution problems, sorry.
[22:07] <Flannel> MGalaxy: escape the spaces
[22:07] <Jack_Sparrow> babo_: It sure is...
[22:07] <wy> LjL: It's a little hard, because it seems that the postinstall scripts can generate some files. So we can't assume they are from elsewhere
[22:08] <wols> wy: only if you install the drivers from nvidia.com/ati.com. if you install them the ubuntu way, nothing is overwritten
[22:08] <saxartist> HAHA this is great, windows installer doesn't have SATA support enabled by default
[22:08] <MGalaxy> RSWD: quotes or double quotes?
[22:08] <babo_> Jack_Sparrow, right. But how do I know that you don't work for VMWare ? You might be in on it. Hell - you might have started it for all i know ...
[22:08] <RSWD> PirateHead: You good with file permissions? I'm trying to install something from a CD (it's a .run script), and I'm getting permission denied, even as root.
[22:08] <JarG0n> wols> Cannot join #911 (Requires keyword).
[22:08] <SammyP> Is anyone familiar with SCIM?
[22:08] <RSWD> MGalaxy: Double quotes.
[22:08] <LjL> wy: yes, the postinst can indeed do that, and there's little you can do about it
[22:08] <Montoya_> Flare183: Still helping Bob?
[22:08] <MGalaxy> Flannel: this way \{space} , didnt work
[22:08] <Jack_Sparrow> babo_: Please stop this line of offtopic discussion...
[22:08] <MGalaxy> RSWD: didnt work
[22:08] <darksync> err ununtu install keeps on hanging
[22:09] <PirateHead> RSWD: root should never get permission denied, so I would be pretty stumped there.
[22:09] <Montoya_> darksync: When you started over, how many partitions did it show?
[22:09] <PirateHead> How do I start an app in a sandbox such that it is disallowed network access?
[22:09] <Dr_willis> RSWD,  try 'bash whatever.run' ?
[22:09] <wols> RSWD: what are you trying to install?
[22:09] <Flannel> MGalaxy: \040
[22:09] <RSWD> darksync: Just give it a minute. My Xubuntu install stopped a few times for 15 minutes at a time. It just goes after a while.
[22:09] <cbx33> how are network interfaces named in ubuntu?
[22:09] <MGalaxy> RSWD: Flannel: even %20 didnt work
[22:09] <wy> wols: I tried to install the one in the repository. mesa's libGL.so.1.2 got overwritten, but there is a backup kept. And if I uninstall the accelerated drivers. The mesa files are restored
[22:09] <cbx33> I had an eth1 that I have removed
[22:09] <cbx33> and I want the new card to be eth1
[22:09] <MGalaxy> Flannel: let me test it
