[04:22] <bimberi> tictac232434: seems it would be a good idea
[04:22] <Tim-S> comicinker: if the purpose is to track down your laptop if it gets stolen, there are better tools out there that will autoreport to email, etc.
[04:22] <tictac232434> Bimb: i was going to wait to make sure this works... because it might cause more problems..
[04:22] <comicinker> which?
[04:23] <tictac232434> because I gotta shrink Windows Drive
[04:23] <comicinker> self-written scripts, probaby
[04:23] <tictac232434> to make room for Swap and root

[04:41] <Be1> hey, does anyone know how to edit the favorites under "places" on the top panel?
[04:41] <juanej> I don't want xandrox anymore
[04:41] <dmsuperman> I just installed 4GB of ram, but top is only showing 2.8GB. I knew I wouldn't quite get all 4GB, but 2.8? Any ideas how I can figure out why?
[04:41] <gsevil> do you know how to change services shutdown order when running init 6 and init 0?
[04:42] <Arlia> yeah scunizi
[04:42] <Arlia> I downloaded the game Tibia for Linux
[04:42] <drumstyk1> Be1:  yes, go to computer>bookmarks>editbookmarks
[04:42] <Arlia> but I can't find the way to run the executable
[04:42] <Spherous>  Every time I go full screen on anything my screen goes black and says "Cannot display this video mode"
[04:42] <Arlia> but I can't find the way to run the executable
[04:42] <Be1> wow, thanks, i am dumb
[04:42] <Scunizi> Arlia: .exe doesn't work on linux.. if you're trying to unpack it if it's zipped.. then right mouse click and choose extract.. if that doesn't work.. fo-get-about-it
[04:43] <Arlia> it's not a .exe
[04:43] <pan__> need help with tar files
[04:43] <Arlia> it just says
[04:43] <pan__> i tar xzvf file
[04:43] <imchrislabeard> hey i thought ubuntu had ntfs support
[04:43] <Arlia> It's an executable file
[04:44] <pan__> then i make
[04:44] <FreshUbuntuNoob> imchrislabeard, It does using the ntfs-3g
[04:44] <pan__> if i make install and i want to get rid of the program how would i get rid of it
[04:44] <Scunizi> Arlia: you just said it was an .exe.. what kind of executable is it.. what's the extension?
[04:44] <Spherous> Arlia, I used to play Tibia aswell, it should be a .deb file
[04:44] <marcustomized> pan__, "make uninstall"
[04:44] <pan__> it wont let me
[04:44] <Spherous> Arlia, else you didn't download the linux version~
[04:44] <pan__> there is no make uninstall
[04:45] <pan__> i haven't "make install" yet
[04:45] <Arlia> hey Spherous
[04:45] <Arlia> there's like
[04:45] <Arlia> Tibia
[04:45] <Arlia> doesn't say any extension
[04:45] <gsevil> how can I change service stop order when shutdown my computer?
[04:45] <marcustomized> you're running it in the terminal, in the directory where the program was compiled?
[04:45] <tenX> pan__: so no files will have been installed yet?
[04:45] <Spherous> Arlia, what happens when you double click it?
[04:45] <pan__> i know i can run it by typing in ./name
[04:45] <Arlia> nothin
[04:45] <imchrislabeard> FreshUbuntuNoob: so do i need to download ntfs-3g?
[04:45] <pan__> ./program
[04:45] <pan__> what does make install do
[04:45] <FreshUbuntuNoob> imchrislabeard, Which version of Ubuntu are you running?
[04:45] <pan__> if i want to get rid of it later
[04:46] <Spherous> Arlia, open a shell, cd to the directory of it
[04:46] <tenX> pan__: then for removing your software you will simply have to delete the source folder
[04:46] <imchrislabeard> 8.10
[04:46] <marcustomized> pan__, make install installs a compiled program
[04:46] <FreshUbuntuNoob> imchrislabeard, It should be included with Intrepid
[04:46] <Spherous> Arlia then type ./(the name of the file) with out the ()'s
[04:46] <pan__> oh i c
[04:46] <Arlia> how do I cd to the directory?
[04:46] <marcustomized> tenX: the makefile may b screwy and pan could end up with useless junk still installed
[04:46] <Spherous> Arlia, where did you save it
[04:46] <imchrislabeard> FreshUbuntuNoob: so how do i get to it
[04:47] <imchrislabeard> FreshUbuntuNoob: i haven't done this in awhile
[04:47] <Arlia> It's in
[04:47] <Arlia> Desktop/Extras/Tibia
[04:47] <venger> is there a way to make alsa speaker-test stop trying to use pulseaudio?
[04:47] <FreshUbuntuNoob> imchrislabeard, What exactly do you want to do with NTFS?
[04:47] <imchrislabeard> i need to get some files off of it
[04:47] <Spherous> Arlia okay, so type ~/Desktop/Extras/Tibia
[04:47] <SteckelBud> I'm running server (hardy heron)/suddenly got "no space left on device".  The ONLY thing that doesn't have plenty is udev mounted as/on DEV, but the copies are in VAR.  Not sure what to do, looking for advice!
[04:47] <Spherous> er
[04:47] <the9a3eedi> Hi. I have a strange problem with mplayer and gmplayer. I just noticed this happening today. Whenever I start mplayer or gmplayer, it takes like 5-10 seconds to start, then play the video. which is very strange.. it wasn't like this before. Anyway, I checked out the terminal.. and found that after I start mplayer or gmplayer... it doesn't do anything, but when I press ctrl-C it continues to load fine. any
[04:47] <the9a3eedi> ideas?
[04:47] <Spherous> Arlia, that should be right
[04:47] <Arlianin> ok sec
[04:48] <imchrislabeard> FreshUbuntuNoob: i need to get some files off of it.
[04:48] <tenX> marcustomized: if it was debian/ubuntu there exists a package whose name i always forget which builds a .deb package from a source like that making it easier to keep track and remove
[04:48] <Spherous> Arlia, ah, no, do cd ~/Desktop/extras/Tibia
[04:48] <FreshUbuntuNoob> imchrislabeard, If you have default install of Intrepid, and nautilus installed, try going to Places and see if your other NTFS partition is automatically recognized there
[04:48] <Arlianin> hey Spherous
[04:48] <Arlianin> it doesn't load
[04:49] <Arlianin> :/
[04:49] <imchrislabeard> FreshUbuntuNoob: yeah it sees the drives
[04:49] <kiyiko> can someone here help me, with editing a rhythembox plugin?
[04:49] <imchrislabeard> FreshUbuntuNoob: it just keeps saying cannot mount volume
[04:49] <Spherous> Arlianin, it does nothing after you type ./(Name of the file)
[04:49] <Arlianin> sec
[04:49] <Arlianin> works now
[04:49] <FreshUbuntuNoob> imchrislabeard, Could you open up the error details and paste-bin it?
[04:49] <Arlianin> going to do that last part
[04:49] <imchrislabeard> yikes im on a different computer
[04:49] <imchrislabeard> h.o a second

[04:49] <FloodBot2> Arlianin: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[04:50] <SteckelBud> luminrd: edit the hosts file on the users machine, deny them rights to the file
[04:50] <Spherous> Arlianin, it should say something like this: susa@Spherous:~/Desktop/Extras/Tibia$
[04:50] <Arlianin> yeah
[04:50] <Arlianin> it's like that
[04:51] <Arlianin> franco@ubuntu:~/Desktop/Extras/Tibia$
[04:51] <Spherous> Arlianin, then your in the tibia folder, now type: ./(Name of the file) with out the ()'s
[04:51] <blak> I have ubuntu hardy heron 8.04 already installed taking up the whole drive. I need to shrink the ext3 / partition, but i don't know how... I can find plenty of info on installing windows first but not on installing windows second...
[04:51] <Arlianin> and which should the name of the file be?
[04:51] <Arlianin> Tibia?
[04:52] <Spherous> Arlianin, Idk I'm not there, open the folder and see what it is named
[04:53] <Arlianin> it doesn't load it
[04:53] <Arlianin> :/

[04:54] <imchrislabeard> FreshUbuntuNoob: it wont let me copy the details
[04:54] <blak> anyone know how i can shrink my ubuntu partition so I can install winxp onto about 15 gigs of it?
[04:55] <luminrd> Is there an easy way to restart x without rebooting?
[04:55] <FreshUbuntuNoob> Ok, can you just give me a brief of it, does it say something like try a force mount?
[04:55] <FreshUbuntuNoob> imchrislabeard,  Ok, can you just give me a brief of it, does it say something like try a force mount?
[04:55] <the9a3eedi> Hi. I have a strange problem with mplayer and gmplayer. I just noticed this happening today.

[04:55] <Spherous> luminrd, ctrl alt backspace
[04:55] <luminrd> thank you Spherous
[04:55] <CorbinFox> liminrde: CTRL alt backspac
[04:55] <CorbinFox> dangit, im too slow
[04:55] <imchrislabeard> FreshUbuntuNoob: yes
[04:55] <FreshUbuntuNoob> the9a3eedi, I had the same problem, do you have any KDE libs/apps installed like Amarok?
[04:56] <the9a3eedi> FreshUbuntuNoob: yes, but I had them a long time ago. I also have KDE too lol
[04:56] <FreshUbuntuNoob> imchrislabeard, That means the file system wasn't closed properly. You need to mount the partition from terminal
[04:56] <the9a3eedi> FreshUbuntuNoob: this problem just happened recently
[04:56] <imchrislabeard> k
[04:56] <imchrislabeard> FreshUbuntuNoob: so mount -t or what
[04:56] <Arlianin> hey Spherous
[04:56] <FreshUbuntuNoob> the9a3eedi, Yes, apparently, while starting up, mplayer tries to disable the screensaver apps, one of them involves dcopserver, if I am not mistaken, and it is actually not running, so mplayer waits for it to respond, and then fails after 5 seconds
[04:57] <Spherous> Arlianin, I PMed you, please check it
[04:57] <FreshUbuntuNoob> the9a3eedi, I solved the problem by reinstalling Amarok ( the only app using KDE libs on my PC), but there might be other better ways of doing it
[04:57] <the9a3eedi> FreshUbuntuNoob: Interesting o_o
[04:57] <the9a3eedi> thanks a lot! :D
[04:57] <FreshUbuntuNoob> imchrislabeard, Sorry for the delay, responding to 2 people is quite crazy :)... use fdisk to check the partition
[04:57] <the9a3eedi> I'll try reinstalling amarok now..
[04:58] <imchrislabeard> FreshUbuntuNoob: k
[04:58] <FreshUbuntuNoob> the9a3eedi, That won't work, since you have the entire KDE installed if I might assume correctly
[04:58] <FreshUbuntuNoob> !mount
[04:58] <isgoungoo> who have wine cad suceed
[04:58] <FreshUbuntuNoob> imchrislabeard, I am not experienced at mounting paritions, but I believe you have to force mount it using NTFS-3g
[04:59] <the9a3eedi> FreshUbuntuNoob: I'm not going to reinstall all of KDE T__T
[04:59] <FreshUbuntuNoob> the9a3eedi, YOu can just do this
[04:59] <FreshUbuntuNoob> the9a3eedi, Wait
[04:59] <imchrislabeard> FreshUbuntuNoob: yeah in the details it gives me the line to enter in terminal
[04:59] <the9a3eedi> I tried searching google but I couldn't find anythi9ng useful
[05:00] <gaintsura> does anyone know if there is a WMA to MP3 converter on ubuntu?
[05:00] <the9a3eedi> wait
[05:00] <the9a3eedi> hm
[05:00] <FreshUbuntuNoob> the9a3eedi, http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=4946456 <= here is the Ubuntu forum thread specifying the details
[05:00] <the9a3eedi> mplayer works now o_O
[05:00] <FreshUbuntuNoob> the9a3eedi, I thought it did, but wasn't sure
[05:00] <the9a3eedi> well.. gmplayer
[05:00] <the9a3eedi> I reinstalled mplayer and all related apps, as well as amarok
[05:00] <FreshUbuntuNoob> the9a3eedi, gmplayer uses the mplayer in backend, so if either works fine, both should work fine
[05:01] <isgoungoo> how to wine autocad
[05:01] <FreshUbuntuNoob> imchrislabeard, Oops sorry, wrote the wrong message to one person, I thought it did, wasn't sure
[05:01] <funky_> can i join the wine conversation?

[05:02] <FreshUbuntuNoob> gaintsura, You should check out mencoder and ffmpeg
[05:02] <FreshUbuntuNoob> imchrislabeard, It doesn't mount?
[05:02] <gaintsura> FreshUbuntuNoob: thanks, will look
[05:02] <imchrislabeard> FreshUbuntuNoob: well i did what it said and it just gives me this huge list of commands
[05:03] <FreshUbuntuNoob> imchrislabeard, What command did you use?
[05:03] <isgoungoo> anyone Chinese
[05:03] <isgoungoo> ?
[05:04] <imchrislabeard> mount -t nfts-3g/dev/sda 2/media/PRESARIO_RP -o force
[05:04] <gaintsura> FreshUbuntuNoob: neither of those say anything about supporting wma, and they are both targeted at video, not audio, but thanks anyway
[05:05] <FreshUbuntuNoob> gaintsura, I did use ffmpeg to encode from MP3 to other formats, I don't exactly remember now
[05:05] <gaintsura> hm
[05:05] <FreshUbuntuNoob> imchrislabeard, Is that a space between sda and 2?
[05:05] <imchrislabeard> i think so
[05:05] <FreshUbuntuNoob> imchrislabeard, I don't think it should be... can you do a sudo fdisk -l and paste-bin it?
[05:05] <blak> all the info i can find is on if i already have winxp how to partition for ubuntu.... is there any info on if you have ubuntu and you want to add winxp?

[05:15] <imchrislabeard> anyone know what the mount partition would be on a live disc
[05:15] <marcustomized> blak, exactly
[05:15] <FlyerFanatic> newish
[05:15] <marcustomized> u can edit unmounted partition tho
[05:15] <isgoungoo> who has wine cad
[05:15] <jim_p> blak: anything that gparted can do needs an UNMOUNTED disk to be done, thus you better with a live enviroment
[05:15] <blak> ok so  i basically need to boot from the ubuntu cd and partiation?
[05:16] <blak> ok
[05:16] <blak> thanks jim_p and marcustomized
[05:16] <blak> will do
[05:16] <danbh_intrepid> FlyerFanatic: well, it cant hurt to try the beta livecd, especially if you are using cdrws: http://releases.ubuntu.com/releases/8.10/ubuntu-8.10-beta-alternate-i386.iso
[05:16] <isgoungoo> how to deal with fonts
[05:16] <jim_p> isgoungoo: are they ugly? use the ms ones
[05:17] <FlyerFanatic> i am righ in saying i dont have to partition or anything right? all i'm trying to do is play around with ubuntu not change anything so i just need to boot from disk right
[05:17] <luminrd> I have some identical machines running Ubuntu. One is running a really low resolution (this one did too at first but I can't remember the exact steps to fix it).  But I installed the nvidia 3rd party driver and copied the xorg.conf from the working one, so the xorg.conf is exactly the same.. how can it still be running low res??
[05:17] <danbh_intrepid> FlyerFanatic: with the livecd, yes
[05:17] <yao_ziyuan> would like to create a "shortcut" command, say, "upup", which executes "sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade", how?
[05:17] <FlyerFanatic> ok d-loading that beta now
[05:17] <danbh_intrepid> luminrd: are you using compiz?
[05:18] <danbh_intrepid> FlyerFanatic: wait!! cancel that
[05:18] <danbh_intrepid> FlyerFanatic: http://releases.ubuntu.com/releases/8.10/ubuntu-8.10-beta-desktop-i386.iso
[05:18] <FlyerFanatic> k
[05:19] <danbh_intrepid> FlyerFanatic: the first one was the wrong link
[05:19] <luminrd> danbh_intrepid: Is compiz the default?
[05:19] <danbh_intrepid> FlyerFanatic: the second should be the right one
[05:19] <FlyerFanatic> k
[05:19] <marcustomized> luminrd, try running "sudo nvidia-settings"
[05:19] <luminrd> danbh_intrepid: On the one that works, I have the "Desktop effects" enabled, and it works great. The other one won't let me enable them
[05:20] <FlyerFanatic> wow this one is gonna take awhile
[05:20] <luminrd> FlyerFanatic: Hmm, command not found
[05:20] <FlyerFanatic> why is the speed so slow dang
[05:20] <darkbishop> wat the difrent between "sudo apt-get upgrade" & " sudo apt-get dist-upgrade"
[05:20] <danbh_intrepid> FlyerFanatic: maybe you wana try the torrent?
[05:20] <luminrd> FlyerFanatic: I do have the driver though -- I have run nvidia-xconfig a few times trying to figure it out
[05:20] <danbh_intrepid> !apt > darkbishop
[05:20] <jim_p> how do i use curl like wget, that is to dowload a file from the net?
[05:21] <chamunks> Is there a way to do a Get What You Can copy of a big file from a mildly corrupt cd?
[05:21] <WalkingAsterisk> Errors were encountered while processing:
[05:21] <WalkingAsterisk>  vmware-server
[05:21] <WalkingAsterisk> E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)
[05:21] <WalkingAsterisk>  <--- how can i fix that
[05:21] <FloodBot2> WalkingAsterisk: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[05:21] <FlyerFanatic> whats that luminrd?
[05:21] <Doc8404> oh wow...
[05:21] <Doc8404> maybe someone in here can help me
[05:21] <danbh_intrepid> luminrd: the hardware-manager is the best way to get it working, when combining 3d and compiz
[05:22] <WalkingAsterisk> Sorry it should have been a one liner
[05:22] <chamunks> Anything at all i can do?
[05:22] <Doc8404> i cant get a video card to show up so i can do 3d mode and use the cube for compiz fusion
[05:22] <FlyerFanatic> yea i'm not d-loading that beta tonight...its going really slow...says its gonna take 10 hrs to complete
[05:22] <Doc8404> right now im stuck on two screens, id like to be using four
[05:23] <luminrd> FlyerFanatic: uh, sorry meant danbh_intrepid :) danbh_intrepid: Hardware-manager...just run that command?
[05:23] <jim_p> WalkingAsterisk: how do you install vmware server? you opened the tar.gz file with gdebi?
[05:23] <FlyerFanatic> haha ok
[05:23] <danbh_intrepid> luminrd: well, you could try reconfiguring xorg, then disabling the 3d drivers, and then re-enabling
[05:23] <FlyerFanatic> thats what i thought
[05:23] <WalkingAsterisk> no apt-get install vmware-server
[05:23] <jim_p> i am afraid i have to ask again... is vmware server included in a repo?
[05:24] <danbh_intrepid> luminrd: lowercase h, but I think thats it.  They keep changing it
[05:24] <WalkingAsterisk> i done an apt-cache search and it was there
[05:24] <sheep> jim_p: I don't think so
[05:24] <FlyerFanatic> it seriously has to be something really dumb...i cant believe how difficult it is to get started. i actually just expected to run into problems once it was up and running but jeez oh pete
[05:24] <luminrd> danbh_intrepid: hmm, nothing found.. I'll google some
[05:24] <luminrd> thanks for the advice
[05:24] <jim_p> WalkingAsterisk: is vmware-server in apt? well i would pay you for the deb for sure!!!
[05:24] <danbh_intrepid> luminrd: Sys > Admin > Hardware something
[05:25] <Doc8404> so... ive only been on ubuntu for a day... ive installed the compiz fusion and emerald... but when i go to hardware it only brings up the empty choices. im running 950 video on a toshiba laptop.. anyone have any ideas because ive only got two screens id like 4 and the cube
[05:25] <jim_p> WalkingAsterisk: can you please find me the repo?
[05:25] <WalkingAsterisk> Ahh,
[05:25] <WalkingAsterisk> i didnt add anything special i dont think
[05:26] <blak> my panels are frozen in Gnome right now but my app windows are working fine.. why would that happen and how do i fix this without losing my windows i currently lhave open?
[05:26] <jim_p> blak: killall gnome-panel
[05:26] <FlyerFanatic> well...its back to the forums i guess
[05:26] <luminrd> danbh_intrepid: Ah, ok, yeah, it shows the nvidia device and it is checked "in use"... I know the driver is there but obviously something's wrong :/
[05:27] <Guest51478> i can no longer open files with vlc via context menu... though in terminal it works fine
[05:27] <Doc8404> i think vlc works better here than windows xp
[05:27] <Guest51478> also i can open same files with other progs via context menu
[05:27] <jim_p> Guest51478: right click > open with?
[05:27] <Guest51478> yeah, doesn't work
[05:27] <turtle_> i need instructions to install swifterfox plz?
[05:28] <zerox20> hi gotta question -- i am playing with other distros (have had ubuntu for 1+ years and love it).  can i run a virtual machine within ubuntu to access other versions i have installed?
[05:28] <rebel_kid> does ubuntu-server have troubles in virtbox?
[05:28] <blak> jim_p: thanks a lot that worked!
[05:28] <jim_p> turtle_: http://getswiftfox.com/deb.htm pick the one that is for your cpu
[05:28] <jim_p> blak: you are welcome
[05:28] <FlyerFanatic> any other ideas?
[05:29] <FlyerFanatic> other than d-loading the beta?
[05:29] <jim_p> rebel_kid: i havent noticed something that is ubuntu-server related. i have noticed LOADS that have to do with vbox. what is the problem exactly?
[05:30] <Doc8404> hmm
[05:30] <Doc8404> i need some ubuntu compiz fusion help...
[05:30] <rebel_kid> jim_p told me that the kernal needed something not supported by my cpu (after install and reboot)
[05:31] <mike__> my vlc problem began after upgrade to ibex beta...
[05:31] <FFEMTcJ> Doc8404: ask your question..
[05:31] <Doc8404> when i go into hardware to activate the 3d driver... it doesnt show any video cards. im running a toshiba 105-s4104 satellite from 2006. its got a gma950 intel video card
[05:32] <Doc8404> and im trying to figure out how to do 4 screens, right now its on two. ive got ubuntu with compiz fusion and emerald installed
[05:32] <FlyerFanatic> i did d-load the right version right. i have a 64 bit vista...i select the 64 bit AMD and intel option yes?
[05:32] <FFEMTcJ> Doc8404: i did 4 screens along time ago.. but dont really remember how i did it
[05:32] <jim_p> rebel_kid: what was it? do you have the vtx options enabled?
[05:33] <ferfactor> ey i have a problem installing unreal tournament 04
[05:33] <rebel_kid> jim_p vtx???
[05:33] <ferfactor> al the half of the instalation said me that i have to put the second disk.. but i have a DVD
[05:33] <Doc8404> lord this linux hates me more than xp did
[05:33] <jim_p> rebel_kid: what version ov vbox do you have?
[05:34] <Doc8404> does anyone here know how to switch from 2 screens to 4?
[05:34] <FlyerFanatic> i think linux hate a lot of people lol...look how many people are in the chat :)
[05:34] <rebel_kid> jim_p, i am running 8.04 server edition, not sure the vbox version
[05:34] <Doc8404> but its so much faster now... with xp it was dragging. with linux its like lightning
[05:34] <jim_p> rebel_kid: thats what i want to know!
[05:34] <rroblak> can someone recommend a way to have a command execute completely regardless if i lose my ssh command and/or logout?
[05:35] <FFEMTcJ> Doc8404: are the two monitors that are currently working one the same video card or different?
[05:35] <jim_p> rroblak: sudo apt-get update && logout ?
[05:35] <danbh_intrepid> FlyerFanatic: you are in one of the hardest parts of linux, hardware support.  Especially for new hardware.  Thats why I was suggesting the beta
[05:35] <Doc8404> no no i mean... when you push ctrl alt left... ive only got two... im trying to go to four
[05:35] <rebel_kid> jim_p, well how do i find the vbox version, just installed it today im assuming the current
[05:36] <FFEMTcJ> Doc8404: 4 physical monitors, correct?
[05:36] <FlyerFanatic> ohhh...so maybe even just wait for the new version at the end of the month?
[05:36] <OrangeKyo> lol no he wants 4 workspaces on 1 monitor
[05:36] <Doc8404> lol no... 4 virtual
[05:36] <Doc8404> yeah that one lol
[05:36] <FFEMTcJ> ok
[05:36] <FFEMTcJ> sorry... i did have four *real* monitors on a linux box
[05:36] <danbh_intrepid> FlyerFanatic: well, if the beta livecd works for you, you will be do quite well with the final release, I think
[05:36] <jim_p> rebel_kid: open upp vbox and go to hellp > about
[05:36] <Doc8404> wow... no i have a dos box running three monitors
[05:37] <zerox20> sorry to ask this again, dont think it was answered -- can i run a virtual machine within ubuntu to access other versions i have installed?
[05:37] <rebel_kid> jim_p 1.5.6
[05:37] <Doc8404> yeah... im trying to figure out how to go from two workspaces to four workspaces
[05:37] <FlyerFanatic> alright well i'll d-load it tommorow...hopefully it works
[05:37] <EvanR> hey, is the 8.04 CD a live cd or just the install?
[05:37] <zerox20> (i have gentoo on another partition)
[05:37] <Doc8404> its both evanr
[05:37] <EvanR> ok good
[05:38] <EvanR> i need to do a rescue
[05:38] <danbh_intrepid> Doc8404: do you see the workspace switcher in the lower left?
[05:38] <Doc8404> lower left or right danbh?
[05:38] <danbh_intrepid> Doc8404: yes, the right : )
[05:38] <Doc8404> yeah
[05:38] <danbh_intrepid> Doc8404: right click, hit preferences
[05:38] <Doc8404> ok
[05:39] <rroblak> jim_p: what I finding is that I execute a command that will take a long time
[05:39] <Doc8404> it says columns two rows one
[05:39] <rroblak> jim_p: like an hour
[05:39] <rroblak> jim_p: at some point, I lose my ssh connection
[05:39] <rroblak> jim_p: and then the command's process is killed
[05:39] <Doc8404> wow how many can u do?
[05:39] <rroblak> jim_p: so I have to reconnect and restart the process
[05:40] <SexyKen> Hey anyone here have experience with configuring dual monitors with 2 different video cards?
[05:41] <FFEMTcJ> zerox20: should be able to
[05:41] <jim_p> rebel_kid: a) upgrade because you will soon run into dependency problems b) right click on the virtual machine >settings > Advanced > is the checkbox that says "Enable VT-x/AM-V" enabled?
[05:41] <FFEMTcJ> SexyKen: what type of cards
[05:41] <rebel_kid> jim_p, no it wasnt :(
[05:41] <Doc8404> ok so now my second question... on hardware i never set up ad 3d driver... but yet i can cube???? wtf lol
[05:41] <zerox20> FFEMTcJ: how would i go about doing that?
[05:41] <SexyKen> FFEMTcJ:  Just brand?  nVidia
[05:42] <jim_p> rebel_kid: what cpu do you have?
[05:42] <rebel_kid> jim_p intel centrino duo pos
[05:42] <jim_p> rroblak: then you need to make a script, but since the connection fails, it will be interupted too
[05:42] <FFEMTcJ> zerox20: you are wanting to just make a VB of a different distro correct?
[05:43] <jim_p> rebel_kid: do you know the exact name of the model, like E8400?
[05:43] <rebel_kid> jim_p no i do not
[05:43] <mike__> can't find an answer on google about lack of context menu functionality vlc
[05:43] <[Solars]> whats a good free application for connecting to box and starting a X session through this connection... on windows
[05:43] <zerox20> FFEMTcJ: well i already have the partitioned space and ahve started a gentoo install, i don't entirely feel comfortable working entirely from taht command line, so i was wondering if there was a way i can run it virtually through ubuntu until i have gentoo configured correctly
[05:43] <FFEMTcJ> SexyKen:have you tried using nvidia-settings
[05:44] <SexyKen> FFEMTcJ:  Yea, it only shows GPU0 and Screen0
[05:44] <jim_p> rebel_kid: cat /proc/cpuinfo
[05:44] <FFEMTcJ> zerox20: you would have to create a new virtual install.. i dont believe that you could turn that into a virtual install
[05:44] <rebel_kid> jim_p model 15
[05:45] <zerox20> FFEMTcJ: thats what i figured.  thanks for confirming
[05:45] <FFEMTcJ> np
[05:45] <jamieyg3> hi, i just installed ubuntu because i need linux for school.. anyways i'm supposed to go to the terminal and login as root but i don't remember ever setting a root password, and i just installed this about an hour ago... is there a default or is there even a root user with ubuntu?
[05:45] <FFEMTcJ> jamieyg3: sudo passwd root < will change it
[05:45] <jim_p> rebel_kid: look at this line here (that is mine): model name	: Intel(R) Core(TM)2 Duo CPU     E4500  @ 2.20GHz
[05:46] <jim_p> rebel_kid: i am model 15 too
[05:46] <Luria> hi, does anyone use ubuntu eee?
[05:46] <rebel_kid> jim_p, T7300
[05:46] <danbh_intrepid> jamieyg3: a better idea is to use sudo -i
[05:46] <Flannel> jamieyg3: `sudo -i` will give you a root terminal, there's no need to enable your root account.
[05:46] <jim_p> rebel_kid: let me ask intel now
[05:46] <FFEMTcJ> SexyKen: in Hardware Drivers, does it show two by chance?
[05:47] <jamieyg3> sudo -i seemed to work, thanks guys
[05:47] <rebel_kid> jim_p, lol ok
[05:47] <Doc8404> ok so i know im a newb... so please bear with me... anyone know what the best firewall/antivirus is for ubuntu
[05:47] <m3thod> what are best files to download. (.tar.gz),(.diff.gz) or (.dsc) ?
[05:47] <rebel_kid> doc8404, you dont need a firewall or antivirus linux doesnt have those problems, so dont worry about it :D
[05:47] <Doc8404> ooo
[05:47] <SexyKen> FFEMTcJ:  In hardware drivers it shows only:  "Device Driver:  NVIDIA accelerated graphics driver (latest cards)"
[05:48] <jim_p> rebel_kid: ok your cpu does support the VT-x instruction set, tick on  that checkbox
[05:48] <DigitalFiz> Doc8404, should always have a firewall but ubuntu has iptables already setup for you
[05:48] <FFEMTcJ> SexyKen: is linux detecting both of them?
[05:48] <Doc8404> i used to use bit defender...
[05:48] <SexyKen> lspci shows both...
[05:48] <rebel_kid> jim_p, and it works, your good :D
[05:48] <SexyKen> FFEMTcJ:  lspci shows both VGA controllers
[05:49] <jim_p> rebel_kid: thank you
[05:49] <Doc8404> DigitalFiz, do you recommend one
[05:49] <rebel_kid> jim_p, you must be some server guru lol, thanks for all your help
[05:49] <DigitalFiz> Doc8404, iptables is all you need your good :)
[05:50] <jim_p> rebel_kid: now please upgrade your vbox to something that sun has made (i cannot guarantee it is trouble free though, loads of bugs)
[05:50] <jim_p> rebel_kid: and you are welcome
[05:50] <Doc8404> so... ive been reading the blogs... and it says basically office products free, games free, and firewalls all free... wtf is microsofts problem?

[05:51] <DigitalFiz> Doc8404, bought?
[05:51] <Doc8404> yeah its 10 bucks for ubuntu full programmed
[05:52] <XGas> Doc8404: Download Ubuntu for free, CD-R buy from somewhere, price varies.
[05:52] <DigitalFiz> $10 to have someone else install it isnt bad i guess
[05:52] <Luria> or usb stick or floppy/netinstall :-)
[05:52] <XGas> Doc8404: Order CD from ubuntu.com for free.......
[05:52] <Doc8404> so... other than wine... i have a program... its streetatlas 2009 with gps reciever... anyway to make it work here ?

[05:58] <Doc8404> makes u fight people?
[05:58] <sheep> Peddy: usually, no
[05:58] <Peddy> thanks sheep
[05:58] <RyeBrye> Doc8404 - WINE isnt' an emulator
[05:58] <Luria> #1 wine isnt an emulator.
[05:58] <Luria> #2 try a vm
[05:58] <Doc8404> but wine doesnt work either
[05:59] <[Solars]> Doc8404 just use vbox
[05:59] <uwe2006> hi guys
[05:59] <Doc8404> vbox?
[05:59] <Luria> wow, lotsa echos
[05:59] <[Solars]> and install windows inside vbox (virtualbox)
[05:59] <Peddy> Doc8404:  WINE is a acronym for "Wine Is Not an Emulator"
[05:59] <RyeBrye> Does vbox support hardware graphics acceleration and such?
[05:59] <Doc8404> is vbox in the synaptics, or add program
[05:59] <Peddy> !intrepid | Peddy
[05:59] <EvanR> lets say i want to use the live CD, then use the drive to burn all the recovered files to a bland disk
[05:59] <EvanR> is that possible
[05:59] <[Solars]> vbox questions should be asked in #vbox
[05:59] <Spherous> Guys, Wine is an emulator, in a sort, it emulates the Windows API, not Windows itself, so yes and no to the Wine emulator thing
[05:59] <WalkingAsterisk> hey jim_p its in the partners repo btw
[05:59] <mike__> ok, thanks anyway everyone, i'll try again later
[06:00] <Doc8404> evanr no its just a demo of the program... i tried that already lol
[06:00] <RyeBrye> !vbox
[06:00] <EvanR> wow wine is or is not an emulator, this channel is very sophisticated :)
[06:00] <RyeBrye> !wine
[06:00] <pepo> Hello this one is my page http: // www.pepo-metal.blogspot.com/ you can make me a click in the advertising, as a favor ... thank you
[06:00] <pepo> pliss
[06:00] <jim_p> WalkingAsterisk: thanks a lot. let me have a look. (i feel like technology has left me behind)
[06:00] <EvanR> Doc8404: do what?
[06:00] <Doc8404> where can i get vbo
[06:00] <Doc8404> vbox
[06:00] <WalkingAsterisk> sudo apt-get install virtualbox
[06:00] <[Solars]> Doc8404 apt-get install virtualbox
[06:00] <[Solars]> Doc8404 apt-get install virtualbox-ose
[06:01] <Spherous> !vbox | Doc8404
[06:01] <Luria> isnt aptitude preferred?
[06:01] <EvanR> does the ubuntu live cd support 'copy freakin everything to ram' or whatever so i can use the drive during the live environment
[06:01] <Doc8404> do i need the ose too
[06:01] <[Solars]> yes
[06:01] <WalkingAsterisk> hey jim_p after i install vmware-server do i use player to install and use the vms ?
[06:01] <XGas> EvanR: use something else like Gnoppix or Knoppix
[06:01] <blak> Having problems with wpa_supplicant if anyone wants to try and help I have pasted my logs of the debug errors and my .conf file etc. on the ubuntu forums at http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=5915029#post5915029   thanks.
[06:02] <EvanR> XGas: it may not support my wireless
[06:02] <EvanR> or, the dead computers wireless
[06:02] <Doc8404> hmmm once u kinda get used to linux its a little nicer than windows... speed wise its rediculous. im downloading things at speeds that are incredible
[06:02] <jim_p> WalkingAsterisk: no server will play the vms. if you do need something lighter, then go with the player
[06:02] <EvanR> ubuntu has a rep for wireless support
[06:02] <Peddy> does vbox support hardware acceleration for graphics?
[06:02] <XGas> EvanR: What Wireless chip you have?
[06:02] <sheep> Peddy: I don't think so
[06:02] <Doc8404> wireless n-mimo the only way to go
[06:03] <WalkingAsterisk> Hmm. i ended up with some web interface thing
[06:03] <WalkingAsterisk> must have ran the wrong command
[06:03] <XGas> Peddy: VMWare Workstation, and Parallels does up to DX9.0b
[06:03] <Spherous> Doc8404: Ubuntu or windows, your download speeds shouldn't change
[06:03] <jim_p> WalkingAsterisk: i think vmware made a new program recently that makes typical vmware machines, thus you may not need server at all
[06:03] <WalkingAsterisk> hmmm
[06:03] <jim_p> XGas: does vmware have 3d acceleration on host oses?
[06:03] <Spherous> Doc8404: Unless of course you had a virus on windows causing your dl speeds to be slow
[06:03] <WalkingAsterisk> theres workstation but its not free
[06:04] <EvanR> XGas: not sure yet, the computer is dead and i havent booted it up yet in anything to check. ubuntu live cd will take another 2 hours to dl :)
[06:04] <Peddy> XGas: I have VMware Workstation, it's extremely unstable, never worked for me so far. What about Parallels, is it stable?
[06:04] <Doc8404> so on vbox... now i just insert the installation disc and go?
[06:04] <XGas> jim_p: ...... who do you mean.
[06:04] <Peddy> XGas: I mean, it's not a supported feature, you have to enable it manually
[06:04] <Spherous> Doc8404: Pretty much, it'll tell you when to put it in, but yes
[06:04] <WalkingAsterisk> virtualbox is great tbh. But i cant get the guest to grab an ip from the router
[06:05] <XGas> Peddy: A..... friend of mine (developer), used Parallels to run Team Fortress 2, works fine. (on Mac OS X though)
[06:05] <jim_p> XGas: <XGas> Peddy: VMWare Workstation, and Parallels does up to DX9.0b. wont you need 3d acceleration for this job?
[06:05] <luminrd> :( Anyone mind helping me figure out why the same xorg.conf doesn't produce the same results on the same exact hardware?? Gettin a real low resolution I can't seem to shake :(
[06:05] <XGas> jim_p: yes, that is why he has a GeForce 8600m GT on his laptop, so it worked.
[06:06] <jim_p> luminerd: because of a silly mechanism that kicks in because it "found" something bad on the xorg.conf
[06:06] <XGas> jim_p: or you can look at TransGaming's SwiftShader
[06:06] <Doc8404> base memory size is the size of the program correct
[06:06] <Peddy> jim_p: what's your point?
[06:06] <jamieyg3> anyone using ubuntu with Sun VirtualBox? when I try to run the "Install Guest Additions" it says "This program must be run with administrator privileges. Aborting" what do I do??
[06:06] <jim_p> XGas: :O i am damping windows by noon if this is true!
[06:07] <Doc8404> awww crap you literally have to install windows into vbox? anyone know where you can get a free one?
[06:07] <XGas> jamieyg3: Add your user to the vbox group
[06:07] <pepo> Hello this one is my page http: // www.pepo-metal.blogspot.com/ you can make me a click in the advertising, as a favor ... thank you Hello this one is my page http: // www.pepo-metal.blogspot.com/ you can make me a click in the advertising, as a favor ... thank you

[06:07] <FloodBot2> pepo: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[06:07] <pepo> pliss
[06:07] <jamieyg3> XGas: thanks what's the easiest way to do that
[06:07] <carpedie1> Doc8404: what did you expect, vbox would come with Windows?
[06:07] <Doc8404> lol i dont have windows of anykind
[06:08] <XGas> jamieyg3: see System -> Administration -> User and Groups
[06:08] <jim_p> jamieyg3: in the host os, mount the vbox additions iso and do a     sudo sh /media/cdrom/VBox....run
[06:08] <DigitalFiz> Your kernel was built with "gcc" version "4.2.3", while you are trying to use
[06:08] <DigitalFiz> "/usr/bin/gcc" version "4.2.4".
[06:08] <DigitalFiz> how do i fix this?
[06:08] <nincompoopy> are you guys all students??
[06:08] <Spherous> Doc8404: Torrent it o.o I didn't say that
[06:08] <bruenig> DigitalFiz: get a new kernel or an old gcc
[06:08] <Doc8404> lol
[06:08] <Doc8404> off here?
[06:08] <jim_p> jamieyg3: you will also need the kernels headers for that job
[06:08] <carpedie1> Doc8404: Virtualbox is not a way to circumvent paying for windows.  If you want to use windows, you need to pay for it.
[06:08] <XGas> jamiryg3: damn, oops, sorry, got what you asked wrong
[06:08] <jim_p> nincompoopy: it has been 4 years since i finished university
[06:09] <DigitalFiz> bruenig, i guess i should recompile the kernel any links on how to do that?
[06:09] <XGas> jamieyg3: follow jim_p's instructions, I got what you asked wrong.
[06:09] <bruenig> nincompoopy: ubuntu is not really the student OS, hardcore computer science folks tend to roll gentoo or arch or other more serious up to date distros
[06:09] <bruenig> !kernel
[06:10] <XGas> bruenig: arch is a bit too lazy, just recommend Gentoo, Slackware or LFS
[06:10] <Doc8404> hmm... so i guess the next question is which torrent program works best in linux... cause im sure as hell not using limewire ever again
[06:10] <bruenig> XGas: some CS people are lazy afterall
[06:10] <rebel_kid> where can i find ubuntu bittorrent downloads?
[06:10] <bruenig> Doc8404: rtorrent
[06:10] <luminrd> What could cause an nvidia machine to run at like 640x480? I ran nvidia-xconfig to no avail
[06:10] <bruenig> luminrd: bad configuration
[06:10] <luminrd> I am using a xorg.conf that definitely works on an identical machine
[06:10] <jim_p> rebel_kid: in ubuntus site! there is an option to download it from torrent
[06:10] <Doc8404> lemme guess its on the main programs list
[06:11] <bruenig> Doc8404: apt-get install rtorrent
[06:11] <luminrd> bruenig: Any suggestions to fix said bad configuration?
[06:11] <bruenig> luminrd: I don't what the configuration is
[06:11] <XGas> bruenig: basically, anything that uses libtorrent is good.
[06:11] <Doc8404> libtorrent?
[06:11] <luminrd> bruenig: What "configuration" are you talking about? xorg.conf?
[06:11] <nincompoopy> they blocked Demonoid =[.......
[06:12] <jim_p> luminrd: can you post your xorg somewhere? here is mine http://7g.pri.ee/mine.conf
[06:12] <jamieyg3> thanks jim_p and XGas for the virtualbox help
[06:12] <Doc8404> installed rtorrent but its not showing up in apps
[06:13] <jim_p> Doc8404: rtorrent is a cli app
[06:13] <bruenig> Doc8404: run "rtorrent" in a shell
[06:13] <Doc8404> whats a shell
[06:13] <Doc8404> or a cli app lol
[06:13] <bruenig> oh no
[06:13] <Doc8404> ive been doin this two days lol
[06:13] <bruenig> the thing you type commands in
[06:13] <Doc8404> oh the terminal ok
[06:14] <ubuntu30> hey guys, very new to ubuntu ... how do I install beryl
[06:14] <digdug> what program are you trying to run, doc?
[06:14] <bruenig> well the terminal displays the shell
[06:14] <bruenig> the shell is bash
[06:14] <Pulpie> hey all
[06:14] <carpediem> ubuntu30: Beryl was merged back into Compiz (as Compiz Fusion)
[06:14] <sheep> ubuntu30: compiz-fusion has replaced beryl
[06:14] <Doc8404> rtorrent
[06:14] <digdug> no, I mean, the windows one
[06:15] <ubuntu30> cool thanks
[06:15] <Pulpie> I need beta testers for fushi. Fushi is an educational interactive tutorial type of program.
[06:15] <Doc8404> oh ubuntu compiz fusion
[06:15] <carpediem> ubuntu30: and you probably already have it if you installed hardy
[06:15] <bobertdos> ubuntu30: and it comes preinstalled in Hardy, so the only thing you need to install is compizconfig-settings-manager (and proper drivers for your video card)
[06:15] <digdug> what program do you need windows to run?
[06:15] <Pulpie> Please join #pulpie if you are interested for beta testing for me.
[06:15] <Doc8404> streetatlas 2009 lt40gps
[06:15] <jamieyg3> last thing i need to know for tonight... i'm on a laptop with vista, running ubuntu through sun virtualbox.. anways, when it's just vista running my laptop fans stay off for the most part (they only come on during heavy processing).. now with ubuntu running, the fan goes on.. off..on..off.. about once per second, no matter how much processing is being done, any fixes for this?
[06:15] <bobertdos> !wine | digdug
[06:15] <Pulpie> You can find the website at http://fushi.sourceforge.net
[06:15] <carpediem> Doc8404: have you tried it in wine?
[06:16] <Doc8404> yeah wine cant make the maps
[06:16] <Doc8404> it crashes
[06:16] <ubuntu30> already done the drivers, will chase down compizconfig ... ty
[06:16] <digdug> bob, not asking for myself
[06:16] <Doc8404> and i tried typing run rtorrent nothing happened
[06:17] <digdug> transmission torrent client should come installed by default
[06:17] <bobertdos> digdug: Understood, I'm just an informant :D
[06:17] <carpediem> Doc8404:  Just install Azureus and be done with it.
[06:17] <Doc8404> sudo apt-get install azureus?
[06:17] <carpediem> Doc8404: well, I'd say do it from Add/Remove
[06:17] <digdug> or just use transmission, check your applications menu, it might already be installed
[06:17] <carpediem> Doc8404: but that will also work
[06:18] <carpediem> Doc8404: he's right, transmission should be already installed
[06:18] <Doc8404> no transmission
[06:19] <droopsta915> my computer isn't slow, but is there a way i can speed it up anymore? without purchasing hardware
[06:19] <carpediem> Doc8404: it comes default with Hardy, so not sure...its under Internet
[06:19] <luminrd> jim_p: yeah, I will in a sec, though as far as I can see it's identical to the one I'm using on this machine, which works fine
[06:19] <Doc8404> yea it sucks lol
[06:19] <carpediem> droopsta915: I'd suggest trying Xubuntu
[06:19] <carpediem> droopsta915: I prefer Gnome, but XFCE is smoking fast.
[06:20] <progrock`> I just built a new comp, intel dual core 3 ghz... with 8 gb of ram... what image should I dl?
[06:20] <carpediem> Doc8404: if you want some more featureful, then Azureus is it.
[06:20] <Doc8404> im thinking about getting a new laptop.... looking to spend 1600 so it won be that good
[06:20] <Doc8404> yeah its installing it now
[06:20] <evilbug> progrock`- ubuntu 8.04.1 i386
[06:20] <progrock`> Doc: if your in school id recommend getting a teblet
[06:21] <Doc8404> tablet linux?
[06:21] <progrock`> evilbug: thatll support the 8gb of RAM? i thought id need a 64 bit, since I need a 64bit windows
[06:21] <evilbug> progrock`- that's what i meant, sorry.
[06:21] <ubuntu30> thanks everyone
[06:21] <progrock`> Doc8404: yeah, I use it.. its amazing.. and i got a gretat deal on an amazing thinkpad
[06:21] <luminrd> jim_p: http://pastebin.com/m54da5f7b
[06:21] <progrock`> Doc8404: i might be able to get you an emplioyee discount too
[06:21] <Doc8404> thinkpad tablet? ive seen the hps
[06:22] <evilbug> progrock`- but you know you need to install some stuff to make flash work and such.
[06:22] <evilbug> progrock`- with 64-bit i mean.
[06:22] <Doc8404> but with a tablet... im looking for something around 2.5 to 3 ghz wirless n and bluetooth
[06:22] <progrock`> ok, so the amd64 is the one to download? even tho it says amd?
[06:23] <progrock`> since im trying to install it and im gettin gall the fd0 errors.. i dont know why,.. it migh tjust have been a bad burn
[06:24] <carpediem> progrock`: amd64 works on the intel 64 chips as well
[06:25] <progrock`> ok, so i hope i just burt the cd bad, and somethign s not screwed up.. jsu built the comp
[06:25] <progrock`> vista installed fine
[06:25] <jim_p> luminrd: the lines 62 and 63 i THINK should be under the nvidia section. plus, what are all these zeroes on line 7?
[06:25] <carpediem> progrock`: possibly....though the installer has a check option in the menu
[06:26] <progrock`> oh, anyone use myth on a 64bit?
[06:26] <Doc8404> but ive heard good things about lenovo
[06:26] <luminrd> jim_p: I honestly don't know about the 0's. That part was generated by nvidia-xconfig
[06:26] <carpediem> progrock`: yes, my server is on a 64 bit Intel, running amd64 ubuntu, running Mythbuntu
[06:26] <progrock`> Doc8404: I love the tablet.. its unbelievable for mt engineering classes.. and lenovo is IMO the bets quality, and most professional looking
[06:26] <jim_p> luminrd: delete the 0
[06:26] <Doc8404> lenovo is a bit expensice lol
[06:27] <progrock`> carpediem: is that a real distro?.. and what TV card do you use?
[06:27] <cjs> Can someone help me with a few annoyances I'm seeing as someone who's just switched to ubuntu?
[06:27] <Doc8404> thiers way to many versions of this thing lol
[06:27] <progrock`> Doc8404: I got an employee discount.. I might be able to ge tyou it.. its liek an extra 15 to 25 % off of the bext web deal
[06:27] <Doc8404> oh wow that would be awesome
[06:27] <carpediem> progrock`: I have a pchdtv 5500 and an HVR 1600 (the latter is kind of a pain on Linux though).
[06:27] <Doc8404> this thing got friends lists lol
[06:27] <cjs> #1: How do I vim to stop forcing a specific set of formatoptions on me? It appears to be ignoring my removal of o and r in my .vimrc.
[06:27] <progrock`> yeah, i got it for liek 1200 with a 160gb HD and 2 gb of RAM a while ago when ram cost a lot more
[06:28] <progrock`> Doc PM me your email.. sadly they used to send me an email every month i could forward you.. but i havent gotten one in a bit, i dont know why
[06:28] <luminrd> jim_p: I deleted the 0 and those 2 lines, still in the same place with it..
[06:28] <Doc8404> hmm...
[06:28] <Doc8404> how do you pm in here
[06:29] <methods> help
[06:29] <jim_p> luminrd: did you move the 2 lines under the nvidia section?
[06:29] <cjs> You type "/msg joe something or other".
[06:30] <progrock`> Doc8404: probably double click my name
[06:30] <luminrd> jim_p: yes
[06:30] <progrock`> Doc you can always write your emall in here, but do it spam free
[06:30] <cjs> Is there some other channel for ubuntu help, or is this the place?
[06:30] <Doc8404> nope that dont work lol
[06:30] <progrock`> but it might take me a day or two, sinc ei need to see if i can get back on it
[06:30] <jim_p> luminrd: restartX
[06:30] <juanej> can i move my home directory to another partition?
[06:30] <progrock`> just do it email@SMAP DReewebsite.com
[06:30] <Doc8404> bamcis got it
[06:31] <Lexvegas> Hey, guys. I have a problem. I just got a second hand Dell Latitude D600, and i installed XUbuntu on it. The problem is that the wireless card id not working
[06:31] <carpediem> juanej: having your home directory on another partitiion is recommended (by me anyway)
[06:31] <PucKid> good morning/jo reggelt
[06:31] <sudoconfused> what's good about it?
[06:31] <luminrd> jim_p: I ahve of course done that with each change
[06:32] <luminrd> It's still not workin
[06:32] <Doc8404> all the shortcut keys are driving me nuts... is thier one to open the shell
[06:32] <juanej> carpediem I'm using ubuntu eee but the default location is on my 4gb partition, how can i move it to the 16gb partition?
[06:33] <carpediem> juanej: well, I've done just that on my eee....
[06:33] <Doc8404> *tries to find a terminal shotcut key*
[06:33] <carpediem> juanej: look at /etc/fstab.  You need to create an entry (preferably by UUID) that mounts on /home
[06:33] <jim_p> luminrd: remove any blank lines between section-endsection, like line 25 and 36
[06:33] <danbh_intrepid> Doc8404: I set one using the keyboard GUI
[06:33] <bobertdos> Doc8404: It's disabled by default, but you can set it in System->Preferences->Keyboard Shortcuts
[06:33] <luminrd> jim_p: I'm not really sure it's the xorg.conf. Like I said, theone I was using, was pretty much identical to one I have working
[06:34] <juanej> carpediem can i query you? i have a couple of questions about ubuntu eee
[06:34] <carpediem> juanej: you can
[06:35] <bobertdos> danbh_intrepid: I must express my joy!! The Pulse "multi-app" bug is gone!!!
[06:35] <danbh_intrepid> juanej: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Partitioning/Home/Moving
[06:35] <forao> hi one quick question... whatever work i do on a live cd is not going to be saved after i shut down my computer right?
[06:35] <danbh_intrepid> bobertdos: what did I do?
[06:35] <jim_p> luminrd: then i dont know what else to do. sorry mate :( find me a way to disable that mechanicm and i will pay you!
[06:35] <progrock`> carp: why 2?.. dan danm i was planning on gettin ghte latter
[06:35] <luminrd> jim_p: got rid of the lines, still no dice
[06:35] <Flannel> forao: correct (unless its accessing your harddrive)
[06:35] <progrock`> carpediem*
[06:35] <luminrd> Thanks anyway jim_p
[06:36] <bobertdos> danbh_intrepid: Ah, I'm just telling you because of how many times we've talked about how annoying Pulse is in Hardy.
[06:36] <danbh_intrepid> juanej: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Partitioning/Home   actually this one
[06:36] <jim_p> luminerd: you are welcome
[06:36] <juanej> ok thx
[06:36] <Doc8404> anyone here know how to get wallclocks running?
[06:36] <danbh_intrepid> bobertdos: yeah, pulse is better in intrepid  : )
[06:36] <Lexvegas> Hey, guys. I have a problem. I just got a second hand Dell Latitude D600, and i installed XUbuntu on it. The problem is that the wireless card id not working. I have run sudo lshw -C network, and the card shows up, but it says: *-network DISABLED.
[06:36] <bobertdos> danbh_intrepid: MUCH, and it makes me HAPPY!!
[06:38] <bustaplz> I installed Ubuntu on a disk that was previously Windows XP. Turns out my Vista installation had wrote it's MBR to the disk XP was on. I am no unable to boot into Vista. I configured GRUB to boot Vista but when I select Vista in GRUB it says BOOTMGR. I've tried running the Vista disc to repair MBR but it can't see the installation and won't accept any of my SATA drivers, including the ones that are currently installed for Vis
[06:38] <bustaplz> ta(it lets me browse my C:\ drive and pull the drivers from \WINDOWS\system32\drivers) What do I need to do to get GRUB booting Vista?

[06:39] <progrock`> depending if i likt myth or not
[06:41] <Doc8404> lex i had that same issue i had to reinstall ubuntu
[06:41] <daquino> is it possible to have ubuntu aware of the iso instead of looking for the cdrom ?
[06:41] <macvr> hi... could anyone suggest the software for ripping audio from a video file?
[06:42] <danbh_intrepid> daquino: I think you can mount iso's
[06:42] <daquino> yes i know how to mount iso's
[06:42] <daquino> i just wnat to point my sources at the iso or an extraction of it ...
[06:42] <danbh_intrepid> that doesnt do it?
[06:42] <daquino> i dont want to mount it every time
[06:43] <daquino> the source list entry looks like some special type of cdrom entry
[06:43] <danbh_intrepid> oh, you arent running an upgrade?
[06:43] <Doc8404> anyone know what that red line is?
[06:43] <bdunn> Could anyone help me with an issue where I am unable to reach a machine at <IP_ADDRESS> from a machine at <IP_ADDRESS>, but I can reach <IP_ADDRESS>.  When I am trying to reach .21 or .66 from a machine on <IP_ADDRESS>, it works fine.  There is a Linux gateway running at <IP_ADDRESS> which has a <IP_ADDRESS> mask as does all of the other devices.
[06:44] <daquino> danbh_intrepid: what?
[06:44] <danbh_intrepid> daquino: nvm, I don't know
[06:45] <Doc8404> oooh i got one for you guys... if i write something in the word processor in ubuntu will it run in microsoft office?
[06:45] <danbh_intrepid> Doc8404: save as...
[06:45] <DigitalFiz> Doc8404,  yes if you save it as a microsoft doc
[06:45] <Doc8404> ok good
[06:46] <macvr>
[06:46] <macvr> hi... could anyone suggest the software for ripping audio from a video file?
[06:46] <droopsta915> how can i display the weekly weather forcast on my desktop?
[06:46] <DigitalFiz> think openoffice now even supports docx not sure
[06:46] <Doc8404> screenlets
[06:46] <joejoecircusboy> bdunn: Is 1.11 running linyx?
[06:46] <macvr> droopsta915: u can use conky
[06:46] <DigitalFiz> macvr, vlc can do that
[06:46] <droopsta915> macvr: is this in the apps?
[06:47] <macvr> DigitalFiz: how do i do it from vlc?
[06:47] <droopsta915> thanx
[06:47] <bdunn> joejoecircusboy:  That machine is running Windows.  .21 and .66 are both printers.  The Linux box can ping neither.  :-S
[06:47] <DigitalFiz> macvr, not sure read the docs on ive never done it but i know you can
[06:47] <sathehand> Can anyone here help me get a Linksys WPC54G S v2 to work in Ubuntu 8.04?
[06:48] <sathehand> I've done some searching, and tried what they did, but nothing...
[06:48] <DigitalFiz> i dont think you can ping a printer can you?
[06:48] <Doc8404> i saw a thing that looked like a mac icon bar... where do we find those?
[06:49] <greenthumb> hi. What do you do if your keyboard/pc suddenly switches to 'counter strike layout'? you know where underscore takes ? button and all that stuff
[06:49] <greenthumb> it's annoying
[06:49] <DigitalFiz> Doc8404, http://themes.beryl-project.org/ try there look into installing emerald
[06:49] <Doc8404> i installed emerald...
[06:49] <bdunn> joejoecircusboy: I'm sorry - the Linux gateway CAN ping .66.
[06:50] <Doc8404> DigitalFiz, i installed emerald
[06:50] <macvr> DigitalFiz: found something similar.. to what u said... i'v been using vlc for so long but i never noticed this!!!:-D
[06:50] <bdunn> joejoecircusboy: This is fairly random.  I have checked the settings on printers that can be seen and those that cannot be seen.  Unfortunately, something on 10.200.1.x MUST be able to see printers at 10.200.2.x - 10.200.7.x by morning.
[06:50] <Doc8404> DigitalFiz, all i got from it was the cube system and a couple other little things
[06:51] <r2k_> linux turns 17 today as it seems
[06:51] <r2k_> happy birthday
[06:51] <DigitalFiz> Doc8404, go to that link i posted and look at the themes
[06:52] <joejoecircusboy> bdunn: you at work?
[06:52] <bdunn> joejoecircusboy: Not physically there but at work.  :-)
[06:52] <joejoecircusboy> nice, hehe
[06:53] <macvr> Doc8404:  i think u are looking for a mac-like dock... try avant window navigator
[06:53] <joejoecircusboy> bdunn: Can you list your machines again, by IP, and give a brief desc
[06:54] <luminrd> What aside from xorg.conf can cause a low resolution?
[06:56] <uwe2006> hi ho
[06:56] <dialman> Hmm.. I think something is wrong here. Why do I keep ending up with 2 copies of xorg running, and taking up so  much memory! (333m 124m)?
[06:56] <massimo> ciao
[06:57] <bdunn> joejoecircusboy: These are just examples of course.  <IP_ADDRESS>  Printer      <IP_ADDRESS>  Printer    <IP_ADDRESS> Linux gateway    <IP_ADDRESS> Windows server    <IP_ADDRESS>  Windows server     Everything can ping <IP_ADDRESS>, but nothing outside of 10.200.2.x can ping <IP_ADDRESS>.  There are many examples like this of printers that cannot be reached while others can.  All of these machines have masks of <IP_ADDRESS> and the gateway of 10.200.
[06:57] <dialman> Can I safely kill the one that's using no cpu?
[06:57] <progrock`> idamn.. all I get when try to install is "Buffer I/O error on device fd0, logical block 0' non stop, then a black screen
[06:58] <greenthumb> how do you fix your keyboard layout if ? has switched places with _ and all that stuff
[06:58] <progrock`> oh, maybe its my keyboard, lol
[06:59] <joejoecircusboy> bdunn: Can <IP_ADDRESS> ping the linux gateway?
[07:00] <bdunn> Yes
[07:01] <joejoecircusboy> bdunn: Can the linux gateway ping <IP_ADDRESS>?
[07:01] <bdunn> joejoecircusboy: No
[07:01] <joejoecircusboy> bdunn: does 'arp -a' on the linux gateway show a MAC address for <IP_ADDRESS>?
[07:02] <Doc8404> the themes dont change wallpapers. or menu bars... only application looks
[07:02] <macvr> Doc8404:  i think u are looking for a mac-like dock... try avant window navigator
[07:02] <Doc8404> macvr, where can i find that
[07:03] <ozatomic> Is there an easy way to upgrade to 2.6.25 ?
[07:03] <ozatomic> it seems to have support for my dvb usb stick and i want to give ti a try?
[07:03] <macvr> Doc8404: add remove programs
[07:03] <jim_p> can i view all the files of a folder and its subfolders with ls?
[07:03] <bdunn> joejoecircusboy: arp: in 193 entries no match found.
[07:03] <jim_p> ozatomic: only if you are willing to compile from source
[07:04] <davidryder> http://www.howtocreate.co.uk/browserSpeed.html#linspeed
[07:04] <davidryder> comparison of major browsers in linux
[07:04] <davidryder> i use opera but only because of the speed
[07:04] <davidryder> huge difference
[07:04] <jim_p> never mind i got it
[07:04] <bazooka> opera is super fast
[07:05] <joejoecircusboy> bdunn: there should be a record there, whether it resolved it or not.. Try pinging again and checking the arp table right afterwards (use grep)
[07:05] <Doc8404> ah that worked
[07:05] <jim_p> opera has what you will see as a default in a browser tomorrow, today
[07:05] <macvr> Doc8404: and for wall papers u need to change them separately
[07:05] <jim_p> pretty much like the mercedes s-class
[07:05] <Hentay> can someone help me with gdesklets?
[07:06] <Doc8404> all in one... all in one... ima start creating all in one packaged lol
[07:06] <davidryder> Hentay: try screenlets
[07:06] <bdunn> joejoecircusboy: ? (<IP_ADDRESS>) at <incomplete> on eth0
[07:06] <davidryder> jim_p: you know of any plugins equivalent to downthemall in opera?
[07:06] <Hentay> screenlets the same shit like gdesklets?
[07:06] <davidryder> Hentay: yes, just WAAAy better IMO
[07:06] <davidryder> they just work
[07:06] <Hentay> oh clear
[07:06] <joejoecircusboy> bdunn: what ip address is assigned to eth0 on the linux gatway?
[07:07] <davidryder> i spent like 2 hours trying to get gdesklets to work
[07:07] <Hentay> with gdesklets i had problem
[07:07] <bdunn> joejoecircusboy: <IP_ADDRESS>
[07:07] <Hentay> i install it and then i try to start it it fails
[07:07] <jim_p> davidryder: i just use the Links menu from the side panel to get the links, copy them on list.txt and wget gets the rest done
[07:07] <joejoecircusboy> bdunn: this is one signel switched network, correct? (there are no routers involved)
[07:07] <joejoecircusboy> *single
[07:08] <jim_p> davidryder: if someone is capable of making a script out of it...
[07:08] <electrofreak> I'm running 2.6.24... and when I view 'dmesg' it prints out numbers before each message.... which I know are the number of seconds since boot. But is there a way to make it display the time and date that message occured? it's kind of annoying that I don't know if errors that it prints happened today or last week.
[07:08] <davidryder> Hentay: http://www.phpstory.net/graphics/ss_Oct_06_2008_0207.png
[07:08] <davidryder> that's screenlets
[07:09] <Doc8404> anyone here familiar with wallclocks?
[07:09] <bdunn> joejoecircusboy: Yes... all connected via MPLS - ethernet hand offs.
[07:09] <Hentay> davidryder:  i am doenloading it via synaptic
[07:09] <Hentay> i'll try it
[07:09] <Hentay> :)
[07:09] <macvr> Doc8404: are u looking for desktop clocks?
[07:09] <Doc8404> yeah i had one but it wouldnt work
[07:10] <jim_p> electrofreak: if you open /var/log/messages, either with cat or some text editor, you will get the dmesg output + the date
[07:10] <macvr> Doc8404: use screenlets
[07:11] <electrofreak> jim_p, actually, I just discovered /var/log/kern.log.
[07:11] <electrofreak> thanks
[07:11] <jim_p> electrofreak: you are welcome
[07:12] <joejoecircusboy> bdunn: hmm, haven't played with MPLS before.... but this sounds like a <layer 3 problem (if arp is not working)
[07:13] <Hentay> screenlets is for amd64?
[07:13] <joejoecircusboy> bdunn: are the various '/24s' within your network handled differently at the MPLS layer?
[07:13] <PucKid> Hentay: yes they work on amd64 also
[07:13] <davidryder> electrofreak: you could also try dmesg | tail
[07:13] <davidryder> it will print out the last several errors
[07:13] <Hentay> huh ok than... because gdesklets don;t work on it
[07:14] <bdunn> joejoecircusboy: I don't believe so... this is pretty much a large ethernet connection somewhat invisible to the local network.  Everything connected at 100MBs just like a local LAN.  Transparent.
[07:15] <davidryder> Hentay: did you get screenlets working?
[07:15] <davidryder> System|Preferences|Screenlets
[07:15] <joejoecircusboy> bdunn: hmm.. ok.   Can anthing outside of 10.200.2.x reach a host in 10.200.2.x?
[07:16] <bdunn> Yes, for example <IP_ADDRESS> can ping and reach <IP_ADDRESS> (printer) but not <IP_ADDRESS> (printer).
[07:16] <pronoy> ns identify passwd
[07:16] <joejoecircusboy> Can the linux gateway reach <IP_ADDRESS>? (i.e. does ARP work)
[07:17] <jim_p> i just realised the value of the terminal. I had to make 10 folders to organise my downloads, so i did : mkdir A B C D E F G H I J . i snaped my fingers and ...puff they were created!
[07:17] <overc0de> <3
[07:18] <davidryder> CLI is awesome
[07:18] <davidryder> bash is awesome
[07:18] <bdunn> joejoecircusboy: Yes...  ? (<IP_ADDRESS>) at 00:04:00:4E:C0:C8 [ether] on eth0
[07:19] <paul68> davidryder: is there somewhere a usefull list of bashscripts to simplefy the work in ubuntu?
[07:19] <bullgard4> What is the command about:config in Firefox 3.0 for?
[07:19] <joejoecircusboy> bdunn: Can the prints be assigned  multiple addresses? (2.21 specifically)
[07:20] <joejoecircusboy> *printes
[07:20] <joejoecircusboy> bah
[07:20] <bdunn> joejoecircusboy: No, only one address.
[07:20] <juanej> is there a /home backup on the livecd?
[07:22] <joejoecircusboy> bdunn: are the problematic printers in another building or somewhere remote from the working ones?
[07:22] <the_ant> can i install xampp on ubuntu-7.10?
[07:22] <bdunn> No, they can be next to each other.
[07:23] <joejoecircusboy> bdunn: do the non-working printers share something in common (like say make or model)
[07:23] <bdunn> joejoecircusboy: No.  Tough one huh?  :-(
[07:23] <joejoecircusboy> bdunn: ya!
[07:24] <joejoecircusboy> bdunn: is this a new network?
[07:24] <rizwan> hi
[07:24] <rizwan> ASLAMALIKUM
[07:24] <rizwan> HOW R U  ALL
[07:24] <davidryder> paul68: is there anything in particular you are looking for? i just usually write my own
[07:24] <rizwan> SALAM
[07:24] <bdunn> Yes and no.  Everything changed IP addresses today.  It was all statically assigned and now is assigned by DHCP.
[07:24] <rizwan> ANY ONE MUSLIM
[07:24] <bdunn> joejoecircusboy: From the Linux server.
[07:24] <davidryder> paul68: i don't know of any sites that feature bash scripts
[07:24] <pan__> if i sudo ifconfig ath0 down; can i pull out my wireless card
[07:25] <joejoecircusboy> bdunn: what was the address scheme used before?
[07:25] <tenX> pan__: yes
[07:25] <pan__> thx tenX
[07:25] <jim_p> the_ant: yea
[07:26] <tenX> pan__: not for that..
[07:26] <bdunn> joejoecircusboy: Every network was different, but they were public IPs everywhere and routers connecting them together.  They were on the private side but had public IPs.  Total mess.
[07:26] <davidryder> paul68: if you use nautilus http://g-scripts.sourceforge.net/ there are some scripts there
[07:26] <pan__> ?
[07:26] <the_ant> waalaikum salam
[07:27] <joejoecircusboy> bdunn: you new to that environment?
[07:27] <bdunn> joejoecircusboy: Somewhat, yes.
[07:27] <joejoecircusboy> bdunn: oh man...
[07:27] <jim_p> bullgard4: about:config !!!
[07:27] <paul68> davidryder: thanks
[07:28] <joejoecircusboy> bdunn: you're in a pickle, eh?
[07:28] <bullgard4> jim_p: Please elaborate.
[07:28] <nianjoia> hey what is a good program for converting a PAL dvd to NTSC?
[07:28] <joejoecircusboy> bdunn: did you try switching network jacks between a working and non-working printer?
[07:28] <jim_p> bullgard4: sorry?
[07:28] <bdunn> joejoecircusboy: Yes
[07:29] <the_ant> can i install xampp on my ubuntu-7.10
[07:29] <jim_p> bullgard4: i had left the room and the window was scrolled up there that you asked about ff3
[07:30] <TeslaTony> How can I keep PulseAudio from loading on startup?
[07:30] <bullgard4> jim_p: I do not understand what your message adds to solving the question which I have put.
[07:30] <joejoecircusboy> bdunn: can you pastebin your dhcpd.conf
[07:30] <jim_p> bullgard4: can you please repeat it? i am terribly sorry
[07:30] <davidryder> bullgard4: about:config is a place to tweak all the options for ff
[07:31] <bullgard4> davidryder: Thank you very much for explaining.
[07:31] <jim_p> bullgard4: now i get it. sorry
[07:31] <bullgard4> jim_p: davidryder just did help me.
[07:33] <Doc8404> goodnight all, have a good monday
[07:33] <Doc8404> thanks for the help
[07:33] <davidryder> bullgard4: for instance: do a search for urlbar - changing it to true will highlight the contents of the URL with a single click instead of a double click
[07:33] <Rat409> bullgard4: another one is about:plugins
[07:33] <WIGGMPk> My sound doesnt work anymore.. Need help. When the login screen loads, the sound plays, when the login is successful the sound plays. however no login music, or system sounds work. When using "Test" in sound preferences, it yields this: audiotestsrc wave=sine freq=512 ! audioconvert ! audioresample ! gconfaudiosink: Failed to connect stream: Invalid argument
[07:33] <davidryder> browser.urlbar.clickSelectsAll
[07:34] <dialman> WIGGMPk: I had the exact same problem when I switched from Gnome to KDE recently.
[07:34] <dialman> I was using pulseaudio in gnome, and it was not being automatically started in KDE.
[07:34] <hathiwala> any one knows gambas ?
[07:35] <hathiwala> i m facing 1 problem in gambas any one help me ?
[07:35] <WIGGMPk> dialman: solution? I havent switched, been using GNOME my entire linux life (only screw around with KDE, IMHO its too messy) but I have all sound devices on Autodetect
[07:36] <hathiwala> prob in gambas help to solve ?
[07:36] <bullgard4> davidryder: Ok.
[07:36] <Doc8404> apples good for ya
[07:37] <hathiwala> prob in gambas help to solve ?
[07:37] <jessica> !nvidia
[07:37] <dialman> WIGGMPk: Weird. I have no idea then. If you want to try on a lark to see if it is the same problem I had (and you were using pulseaudio): open a terminal and run pulseaudio. That was how I figured it out (audio should suddenly start working if that's the problem)
[07:39] <WIGGMPk> dialman: lol you were right about it but it wasnt pulseaudio.. i ran "sudo alsa force-reload" and all my system sounds ran
[07:39] <dialman> Nice
[07:39] <WIGGMPk> dialman: how can I prevent this from hanging... or not loading every time?
[07:39] <dialman> You are asking the wrong guy- I am pretty new to linux :)
[07:39] <dialman> I just happened to have some somewhat helpful advice this time :)
[07:39] <Hentay> davidryder:  thanks :)
[07:40] <WIGGMPk> dialman: well thanks for the helpful advice
[07:40] <davidryder> Hentay: you like?
[07:40] <Hentay> yes
[07:40] <Hentay> :)
[07:40] <davidryder> sweet :D
[07:40] <Hentay> one sreenlet rulez
[07:40] <Hentay> system monitoring
[07:40] <Hentay> :)
[07:40] <davidryder> yeah
[07:40] <davidryder> i like that one too
[07:40] <Hentay> others is so so :)
[07:40] <WIGGMPk> So, does anyone know how to prevent ALSA from hanging on start?
[07:41] <Hentay> i don't use alsa
[07:41] <davidryder> yeah i got bored with the others... i don't really see my desktop enough
[07:41] <Hentay> davidryder: excatly :)
[07:41] <Doc8404> anyone here know how to change the background... not the one on the workspaces, the one outside the cube
[07:42] <Hentay> davidryder: do u use xmms?
[07:42] <davidryder> no i use rhythmbox
[07:42] <davidryder> i'm a big fan of id3 tags and i like being able to filter my library by genre artists and album
[07:42] <macvr>  Doc8404: see the in preferences> advanced desktop effect settings
[07:43] <Hentay> huh
[07:43] <Hentay> :(
[07:43] <Hentay> i want to browse my library by folders :D
[07:43] <Doc8404> macvr, ok
[07:44] <davidryder> that's how i used to do it
[07:44] <davidryder> i have ~9000 songs now though
[07:44] <m3thod> how do u install a .tar.bz2
[07:45] <Hentay> i have only 4048 songs :(
[07:45] <macvr> m3thod: install what? program or theme?
[07:45] <Hentay> and all are metal
[07:45] <davidryder> holy crap
[07:45] <davidryder> that makes sense then
[07:46] <m3thod> program
[07:46] <davidryder> m3thod: bz2 is an archive, the install files are likely inside the archive
[07:46] <davidryder> m3thod: unrar x file.tar.bz2
[07:47] <Doc8404> macvr: i didnt see the option to change it, what was i looking for
[07:49] <macvr>  Doc8404: if have compiz installed? right? see in preferences> advanced desktop effect settings>desktop> appearance tab> skydome... in that add a skydome image
[07:50] <m3thod> linuxPkg_5.07.tar.bz2 would be different if installed driver
[07:50] <m3thod> ?
[07:50] <Chaotic_Descent> I think I already tried every audio setting for VLC media player, but some videos have audio that only plays in Mplayer, but not VLC. but I want to use VLC because MPlayer doesn't let me resize the window while keeping the aspect ratio.

[07:56] <DaCapn> Anyone ever have trouble with SD cards from cameras? I have no idea what the issue is but on several cards with many photos, after a certain point, the photos can't be copied or opened with eye of gnome. No problems from these cards in my camera or on my laptop running debian.
[07:57] <macvr> Chaotic_Descent: change the gstream to pulse and set vlc to use alsa.... i had similar probs with vlc audio .. and this worked for me
[07:57] <jim_p> DaCapn: do you unmount before puling the card out?
[07:57] <jim_p> DaCapn: even if you dont write something on it
[07:57] <DaCapn> Eye of gnome gives the following error: Error interpreting JPEG image file (Improper call to JPEG library in state 200). Nautilus just gives an I/O error.
[07:58] <DaCapn> Yes, I always unmount.
[07:58] <Doc8404> macvr: i had to activate it under advanced settings... but under desktop it didnt exist
[07:58] <jim_p> DaCapn: do they automount in ubuntu and in debian?
[07:58] <DaCapn> Since they work fine in two other devices I have doubts that I've caused any trouble with the filesystem or caused corruption of files.
[07:59] <DaCapn> Yes. Perfectly fine.
[07:59] <Hentay> hmz... maybe someone can tell me with witch music player i can browse my music by folder names
[07:59] <like0537> hello guys
[07:59] <like0537> need help here
[07:59] <Chaotic_Descent> what's gstream?
[07:59] <jim_p> Hentay: audacious ? file > open ...
[08:00] <like0537> i want to install gimp 2.6
[08:00]  * _adrenaline uses audacious
[08:00] <jim_p> like0537: you have to wait until 8.10
[08:00] <Hentay> hmz...
[08:00] <macvr> Chaotic_Descent: in sound preferences what are u unsing?
[08:00] <Hentay> i;ll try it
[08:00] <like0537> im using hardy heron 8.4
[08:00] <Hentay> gstream totem fucks alot
[08:00] <valiza1> i think something very hard to discover has broken in my ubuntu. Is it adviseable to tell all the installed packages to re-install ?
[08:01] <error404notfound> if I want to run apt-proxy, how much disk space do I need? give me a bound, an average...
[08:01] <Chaotic_Descent> macvr: what sound preferences?
[08:01] <like0537> any gimp user here
[08:01] <macvr> Chaotic_Descent: panel>preferences> sound
[08:02] <jim_p> like0537: you must wait until 8.10 comes out and upgrade it with the rest of the installation. otherwise, use backports (if it can be found there) or build it from source
[08:02] <like0537> how  about using ssh
[08:02] <WIGGMPk> Ok, so I wanna try PulseAudio, but what do I select on the Default Mixer Track, I have two options that say PulseAudio, Capture and Playback.. What do I select for the Device?
[08:02] <Chaotic_Descent> macvr: just the defaults. I've never been in there
[08:02] <_adrenaline> like0537, what about ssh?
[08:02] <like0537> ah ok thanks
[08:02] <jim_p> like0537: ssh for what job?
[08:02] <like0537> i want to something about ssh specially making keys?
[08:03] <macvr> Chaotic_Descent: u need to tinker a bit there... i was havin audio problem in vlc similar to urs
[08:03] <greenthumb> what happens if I mount the partition with windows on in ubuntu_
[08:03] <like0537> tunneling, copying etc
[08:03] <_adrenaline> What do you want to know?
[08:03] <like0537> any good tutorials here
[08:03] <error404notfound> if I want to run apt-proxy, how much disk space do I need? give me a bound, an average... anyone?
[08:03] <nianjoia> should I upgrade to ubuntu 8.10?
[08:03] <jim_p> like0537: i cant help you there. all i do is control another pc though ssh
[08:04] <jim_p> nianjoia: not yet!
[08:04] <nianjoia> ah ic
[08:04] <mandh> hi all
 Hello mandh!
[08:04] <nianjoia> finally!  someone answers me!
[08:04] <nianjoia> lol
[08:04] <jim_p> lol hi
[08:04] <nianjoia> got another questioni for you jim
[08:04] <like0537> thats a good idea what would i do then to cotrol t?
[08:04] <greenthumb> can I browse my windows files in ubuntu if I mount the win partition from ubuntu?
[08:04] <mandh> i have ubuntu that freeze suddenly
[08:04] <jeeves> is there a repair utility for evoulition?
[08:04] <jim_p> nianjoia: hit it!
[08:04] <nianjoia> what is a good program for converting a PAL dvd to ntsc?
[08:04] <mandh> i upgrade the system and still freeze "kernel panic"
[08:04] <raheem> greenthumb: yes
[08:05] <nianjoia> Im new to ubuntu..but i must say i like ti way better than vista
[08:05] <sleepster>  nianjoia how can you compare vista with ubuntu?
[08:05] <jim_p> nianjoia: i suppose this means you have to recode the dvd?
[08:05] <nianjoia> yes
[08:05] <greenthumb> sweet raheem, thx
[08:05] <macvr>  nianjoia: avidemux... might work
[08:06] <nianjoia> ah ok ic
[08:06] <sleepster> mandh: what's the kernel panic say?
[08:06] <jim_p> nianjoia: or mandvd? or i am wrong
[08:06] <like0537> jim_p: CAN U GIVE ME A GOOD TUTORIAL ON SSH UBUNTU
[08:06] <nianjoia> well I have to convert .vob files...
[08:06] <sleepster> greenthumb: yeah, you need the ntfs or fat32 file system drivers for linux
[08:06] <WIGGMPk> What should be the Default Mixer Tracks: Device if I wanna use PulseAudio.. I have two options, Capture & Playback.. which one should i use? or do I still use HDA NVidia (Alsa mixer)????
[08:06] <nianjoia> hm
[08:06] <raheem> !ssh
[08:06] <jim_p> like0537: like what? i connect to the other pc as a user and do its upgrades etc
[08:06] <nianjoia> I'll check em out
[08:07] <mandh> sleepster, humm let me search about it  , but like interrupt ...
[08:07] <like0537> hmmm...
[08:07] <greenthumb> sleepster:  oh.. well it works fine just mounting it, i'm playing mp3's from it in amarok now
[08:07] <like0537> thanks jim_p
[08:07] <sleepster> mandh: it could be several things.. why did the kernel panic occur? did you build your own kernel?
[08:07] <error404notfound> anyone awake here?
[08:08]  * _adrenaline is sleeping
[08:08]  * raheem is asleep
[08:08] <Spinac1> can  i change the screen res from terminal?
[08:08]  * sleepster is sleeping
[08:08] <DaCapn> This SD card issue is kind of strange too. The last image that can be read at all on the card renders with the bottom half black in eye of gnome and it similarly can't be copied.
[08:08] <greenthumb> sleepster:  how come my headphones cant play very loud in ubuntu? Everything is turned all up, mastersound, amarok, my headphones
[08:08] <greenthumb> but it's way louder in windows
[08:08] <mandh> sleepster, no not build it is from the os itself
[08:08] <DaCapn> The total size of all of the files that can be copied is close to 1GB.
[08:09] <sleepster> greenthumb: you should turn up PCM pulse code modulation
[08:09] <jim_p> DaCapn: are you sure it was unmounted properly everytime in its lifetime?
[08:09] <macvr>  greenthumb: that seems to be the only prob for a lot ... volume is lower than in windows
[08:09] <sleepster> greenthumb: see the volum control in the top right... there is a properties menu.. right click and you want to turn up PCM
[08:09] <DaCapn> jim_p What are you proposing is happening if that isn't the case?
[08:09] <sleepster> mandh: what kind of hardware are you using?
[08:09] <DaCapn> And to that, the answer is YES.
[08:10] <sleepster> mandh: I've never had a problem with kernel panics on a fresh machine.. only when they are self-inflicted
[08:10] <greenthumb> sleepster:  I see the pcm, but I dont know how to turn it up
[08:10] <greenthumb> oh there
[08:10] <mandh> sleepster, whan u mean? me i dbout with hw
[08:10] <greenthumb> it plays great now. thanks a lot
[08:10] <sleepster> greenthumb: it should allow you to enable it in your volume.. you select it..
[08:10] <sleepster> mandh: ?
[08:10] <mandh> sleepster, hardware
[08:10] <raheem> greenthumb: great to know it works :)
[08:11] <sleepster> greenthumb: np
[08:11] <greenthumb> :-)
[08:11] <jim_p> DaCapn: i had pulled a CF card one out without unmounting it . it had like 200 photos inside and i lost some 4-5
[08:11] <Spinac1> can  i boot with resolution parameters?
[08:11] <sleepster> jim_p: what file system were you using?
[08:11] <DaCapn> What I said was that these photos can be read and accessed fine on my camera and in my laptop running debian.
[08:11] <sleepster> Spinac1: ?
[08:12] <raheem> !resolution
[08:12] <DaCapn> The files are there and are contiguous.
[08:12] <sleepster> Spinac1: the best thing is to let yoru video card configuration tool do it
[08:12] <jim_p> sleepster: on my drive? ext3
[08:12] <sleepster> jim_p: hmm.. I am surprised you lost any data
[08:12] <DaCapn> ext3 of your CF card?
[08:12] <sleepster> jim_p: unless you were in the middle of the copy I guess
[08:12] <greenthumb> how come the play list in amarok clears it self out after every restart of the program? I just drag the files into the playlist.
[08:13] <sleepster> greenthumb: you can save them
[08:13] <briguyd> hello all
 Hello briguyd!
[08:13] <Spinac1> the problem is i cant see x now that i changed my res to unsupported res so now just getting bad signal input blank screen. but i have a command prompt
[08:13]  * sleepster goes back to reading...
[08:13] <briguyd> i recently seemed to have messed up my hard drive
[08:13] <greenthumb> yeah.. but like in winamp they just stay in the playlist without you having to have som playlist file saved
[08:14] <jim_p> sleepster: no on the card i have fat32! i thought you said on the drive
[08:14] <Hentay> amm maybe someone is using autocad on ubuntu? :)
[08:14] <briguyd> it appears in lsusb and dmesg, but it doesn't show under /dev as it used to and i can't mount it
[08:14] <briguyd> can anyone please help me work it out?
[08:14] <raheem> Spinac1: can't u try the ALT CTL + combination ? i guess ti should work
[08:16] <jim_p> briguyd: filesystem?
[08:16] <briguyd> it was ntfs
[08:17] <greenthumb> hmm, is it normal that video quality is worse in ubuntu than in windows? i've installed vlc, dno about codecs
[08:17] <briguyd> it worked fine until earlier today when i was moving it betweena  vista and os x computer
[08:17] <talib> hi
[08:17] <TeslaTony> Hentay: AutoCAD doesn't work on Ubuntu. There's a few Windows CAD programs that work so-so on Wine, and there's a few Linux-native CAD programs.
[08:17] <raheem> Spinac1: or from the command prompt, type sudo nano /etc/X11/xorg.conf , put the resolution that worked
[08:17] <talib> In ubuntu, why can only 1 audio file play? if you try 2 simultaneously only 1 audio file works
[08:17] <midnightRmbler_> greenthumb: should be the same
[08:17] <jim_p> Hentay: use qcad
[08:18] <Hentay> jim_p,  and it is the same like autocad?
[08:18] <macvr>  greenthumb:  what graphics card are u using?
[08:18] <jim_p> Hentay: roughly the same
[08:18] <Hentay> hmz...
[08:18] <Hentay> as usualy
[08:18] <greenthumb> macvr:  nvidia geforce 9800gtx
[08:18] <Hentay> let's try :)
[08:18] <DaCapn> Hentay don't expect compatibility.
[08:18] <jim_p> Hentay: depends on what you do. for me gimp is NOT similar to photoshop no matter what
[08:19] <gnuskool> morning
[08:19] <Hentay> DaCapn, i need it :)
[08:19] <macvr>  greenthumb: nvidia should give an output nearly as good as windows
[08:19] <jim_p> briguyd: have you "safely removed" it from xp?
[08:19] <TeslaTony> Hentay: As someone that's used both AutoCAD and QCad, AutoCAD is light-years ahead. QCad is good for some 2D stuff, but not nearly as robust as AutoCAD. Try it, though
[08:19] <Hentay> or if i'll try to load autocad using wine?
[08:19] <jim_p> Hentay: wine or virtualization
[08:19] <DaCapn> Hentay installations of AutoCAD after 2000 require .NET framework. This is notoriously a problem for wine and similars. Mono doesn't show additional promise.
[08:19] <TeslaTony> AutoCAD doesn't work with Wine
[08:20] <Hentay> whit
[08:20] <Hentay> :/
[08:20] <Hentay> shit*
[08:20] <FloodBot2> Hentay: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[08:20] <DaCapn> I've used AutoCAD 2006 by running it inside a WinXP VM with qemu.
[08:20] <briguyd> jim_p: it's not recognized under xp anymore
[08:21] <briguyd> or OS X for that matter
[08:21] <DaCapn> That's the best you'll probably get... which is a lot better than some dual-boot nonsense.
[08:21] <greenthumb> macvr: okay, i have only seen a small bit in windows of the avi file i'm testing with, so it might just suck and i don't remember. i'll try with a dvd
[08:21] <jim_p> briguyd: what drive is it? wd?
[08:21] <jim_p> what is wrong with dualboot DaCapn ?
[08:22] <jim_p> Hentay: about wine and autocad >> http://appdb.winehq.org/objectManager.php?sClass=application&iId=86
[08:22] <DaCapn> Nothing if you don't mind restarting your machine when you want to do something different.
[08:23] <koshari> Hentay people have had success with autocad r14
[08:23] <jim_p> DaCapn: i spend 90% of my time in linux
[08:24] <DaCapn> I can understand dual boot for people who want to play games. Anything else... the juice isn't worth the squeeze in my opinion.
[08:25] <greenthumb> how come i cant extract rar files on my windows drive from ubuntu.? is that impossible?
[08:25] <DaCapn> And I'm just guessing that he isn't interested in rebooting every time he wants to use AutoCAD.
[08:25] <vilhonen> has anyone made a silent install with ubuntu?
[08:25] <briguyd> jim_p: seagate
[08:25] <koshari> greenthumb if you can mount the partition theres no reason you shouldnt be able to access any non encrypted fiels
[08:26] <TeslaTony> DaCapn: AutoCAD uses as much as or more memory than many games
[08:26] <ZmAY> where to look for the path to Tcl/Tk
[08:26] <vilhonen> I tried to follow instructions from here http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=883017 with little success
[08:26] <mmcji> does the ubuntu-server cd have LTSP on it?
[08:26] <jim_p> DaCapn: i do dualboot for photoshop and games. and dont tell me to use gimp. for what i want, gimp is far behind
[08:26] <greenthumb> koshari: i cant mount it. so that's weird. I got all these rar archives all together containg a dvd movie. you know like .r00, .r01 and so on
[08:26] <macvr> greenthumb: check if u have ntfs-3g,ntfs-config.... should be there
[08:26] <vilhonen> generated disk image boot fails in bootcdproberoot script failures
[08:26] <mmcji> or is that just the alternate cd for the normal desktop install
[08:27] <jim_p> DaCapn: i dont mention premiere...
[08:27] <greenthumb> macvr: how do i check that?
[08:27] <DaCapn> jim_p I'm not telling you to do anything. Do what you like.
[08:27] <jim_p> DaCapn: lol i was not offended and i hope neither were you. peace

[08:28] <macvr> greenthumb: see if u have the 2 packages?
[08:28] <greenthumb> koshari: it says something about the archive aint supported. but it's normal rar files
[08:29] <jim_p> briguyd: chances are that your drive is ... dead :(
[08:29] <Karhuton> Hi, what's the best way to get a Finnish locale settings but English traslations in all applications?
[08:29] <DaCapn> TeslaTony I've found that the bottleneck for AutoCAD in qemu is image rendering. At least on the machine I did it on. This was without the kqemu module. It was ridiculous if you had many lines visible.
[08:29] <koshari> greenthumb you need to install the rar codec, "sudo apt-get install rar"
[08:29] <briguyd> but would it show up in dmesg?
[08:29] <pan__> what man page would i look at for bluetooth connection
[08:29] <pan__> !list
[08:29] <koshari> then it will unrar in fileroller
[08:29] <Guest93348>  	/msg smoggy XDCC SEND #117
[08:30] <Karhuton> Due to using English language packages all my apps default to AM/PM and USD currencies.. And sometimes (like Evolution) I can't affect the settings in certain places
[08:30] <briguyd> dmesg output: http://paste.ubuntu.com/54576/
[08:30] <greenthumb> macvr:  the 3g is there, the config is not. when ive checked it to installation, how do i install?
[08:30] <jim_p> briguyd: if it is damaged, no
[08:30] <TeslaTony> DaCapn: It'd be really nice if AutoDesk put out a Linux client. But until then, I'm stuck with Windows.
[08:31] <koshari> greenthumbif you can see the files the drive is mounted fine
[08:31] <jitu3485> hi, can I use a fiesty repository in ubuntu hardy? will it cause problems?
[08:31] <macvr> greenthumb: just check the box to install and it will do the install
[08:31] <ndlovu> hi all. I had to kill update-manager (Ctl+Alt+Bkspace), Now it's complaining about not getting a lock. can I just delete /var/cache/apt/archives/lock ?
[08:31] <greenthumb> koshari:  i can see the files, i can play avi and mp3 files from there, but i cant extract my dvd movie
[08:31] <macvr> greenthumb: check if u are having applications>archive manager... it should have the default rar plugin
[08:31] <koshari> greenthumb you need to install the rar codec, "sudo apt-get install rar"
[08:31] <DaCapn> TeslaTony Yeah, I agree, it's not really feasible for an architect/designer to use it for all of their work purposes inside qemu.
[08:32] <jim_p> ndlovu: you killed it the wrong way. use killall next time
[08:32] <ndlovu> jim_p, how do I know what the process name is?
[08:32] <koshari> greenthumb so open a terminal, paste the line i posted (without quotes) into a terminal and your away
[08:33] <greenthumb> koshari:  when i try to install it says E: Unable to lock the administration directory (/var/lib/dpkg/) is another process using it?
[08:33] <jim_p> ndlovu: you just says it was update-manager!
[08:33] <koshari> greenthumb close the synaptic  or update app you have open
[08:33] <jim_p> briguyd: sorry mate, i am out of ideas for the drive
[08:33] <macvr> greenthumb: close synaptics package maager and try again
[08:33] <Hentay> greenthumb, and use sudo
[08:33] <ndlovu> jim_p, the only program I could find with update in it was update-notifier, and I wasn't sure it was the same thing
[08:34] <hp_> ok i'm positive now. hardy is much buggier than feisty
[08:34] <jim_p> ndlovu: kill it!
[08:34] <greenthumb> macvr:  ah, its installing now :) Hentay, of course
[08:34] <hp_> i wish i'd stuck with feisty
[08:34] <greenthumb> w00t I can extract the rar files now :D
[08:34] <greenthumb> thanks all
[08:34] <ndlovu> jim_p, next time I'll do that :) right now I'm stuck with a lock - can I just delete the lock file?
[08:34] <hp_> thats over 2 machines too
[08:35] <koshari> greenthumb and you can install a package :-)
[08:35] <hp_> how soon until hardy is stabler? anyone know?
[08:35] <greenthumb> what do you mean? havent i always been able to do that?
[08:35] <jim_p> ndlovu: sudo rm /var/cache/apt/archives/lock and cross your fingers
[08:35] <greenthumb> a package is the ones you install from add/remove right?
[08:35] <koshari> hp_ hardy is considere3d stable now
[08:36] <hp_> koshari, have you noticed more trouble since leaving fiesty?
[08:36] <pronoy_> hi how can i change the resolution of my log in screen ???? not the workspace
[08:36] <jim_p> pronoy_: you cant. gdm picks the 1st one it finds in xorg
[08:36] <koshari> hp_ not here i typicly get uptimes of a few weeks until a power outage or a kernel update,
[08:36] <greenthumb> i love that you can mount your windows drive in ubuntu :D if only ubuntu played all games with no problems, i could  completely drop windows
[08:36] <hp_> actually 'more' is wrong, i never had any issues with feisty. never crashed once. now with hardy i'm getting gray terminals once every 3 days
[08:36] <ndlovu> jim_p, I was hoping for more confidence in the procedure ;), but thanks for your help. so far nothing broken...
[08:37] <pronoy_> jim_p: here's the xorg.conf file....what am i doing wrong ????? http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/54572/
[08:37] <koshari> greenthumb: get a console
[08:37] <hp_> koshari, sounds pretty sweet then
[08:37] <pronoy_> jim_p: ps i am anoob
[08:37] <hp_> koshari, i'll persevere
[08:37] <jim_p> ndlovu: do a sudo apt-get update
[08:37] <jim_p> ndlovu: and check for errors
[08:37] <ndlovu> jim_p, apt-get update and apt-get upgrade worked okay
[08:38] <koshari> hp_ whats your actual problem?
[08:38] <greenthumb> koshari: hehe.. well i just spend lots of money on this pc for gaming
[08:38] <jim_p> ndlovu: then you are good to go
[08:38] <greenthumb> and i kinda like playing pc
[08:38] <jim_p> pronoy_: you made all this yourself!?!?!? is your laptops native resolution 1280*800?
[08:39] <ubuntu_todd> The hotkey of compiz fusion conflict with that os SCIM
[08:39] <ubuntu_todd> How to solve that?
[08:39] <juanej> hi, is there anyway i can automount a usb flashdrive without being root?
[08:39] <ryg9I> juanej: sudo apt-get install usbmount
[08:39] <koshari> ubuntu_todd change the hot key in compiz manager
[08:39] <pronoy_> jim_p: my resolution wasn't changing so i have edited the conf file
[08:40] <pronoy_> jim_p: had a friend's help...and desktop.. not lappy
[08:40] <koshari> juane it should do so already otherwise you may need to tweak a hal setting
[08:40] <ubuntu_todd> koshari: does it matter the consequence of my installation?
[08:40] <greenthumb> how do I do so the playlist i've got in amarok right now stays there so it's there when i open up amarok next time?
[08:40] <hp_> koshari, regularly i'll notice a new terminal is empty. then it goes gray. any new terminals are like that until restart
[08:40] <jim_p> pronoy_: what is that line that says virtual there?
[08:41] <ubuntu_todd> koshari; I mean which one should be installed first?
[08:41] <juanej> ryg9I it keeps asking for root access
[08:41] <gligorhoria> will rm -r follow links ?
[08:41] <hp_> koshari, but i can't restart via the menu or a terminal. so i have to cntl-alt-F[x] into another shell to call a sudo shutdown
[08:41] <juanej> you have to be root to use mount
[08:41] <juanej> that's what it reads
[08:42] <vilhonen> how do I automate the installation of ubuntu

[08:42] <lb> i want install gf9600 gso , need help!
[08:42] <koshari> ubuntu_todd i understood you have compiz installed already, isnt that  how you discovered the conflict? i would imagine the program you want to change the hotkey in would be the one you install first if that wasnt the case
[08:42] <lb> i want install gf9600 gso drivers, need help!
[08:43] <Hentay> lb nvidia?
[08:43] <gligorhoria> we are lb don't screem
[08:43] <lb> yes
[08:43] <jim_p> pronoy_: some advice a) send the depth parameter on line 70 outside that subsection    b) remove line 69 that says Virtual...  c) save, exit, restart X if that wont word  d) delete the sublection Display altogether
[08:43] <koshari> hp_ you may have to try and isolate the problem to the program causing it, whether it is xorg, compix ect ect/./.
[08:43] <Hentay> sudo apt-get install envyng
[08:43] <Hentay> i used for my gf 8600m GS
[08:43] <hp_> koshari, ok i see. thanks

[08:47] <koshari> vilhonen theres a good guide on phsycocats
[08:48] <koshari> ubuntu_todd beryl is obsolete, its now compiz fusion
[08:48] <gligorhoria> Hentay: you have to read that, it's not that complicated

 Hello meek!
[08:57] <koshari> vilhonen ok, you could resize the partition which may be an option, otherwise you will be looking at something like reconstructor
[08:58] <imchrislabeard> where would the ubuntu disc manager be in 8.10
[08:58] <imchrislabeard> ?
[08:58] <greenthumb> koshari: do you know how i dowload directly from limewire to my windows partition?
[08:59] <koshari> greenthumb you should use frostwire instead of limewire
[08:59] <Flannel> imchrislabeard: #ubuntu+1 for Intrepid support, but probably system > administration
[08:59] <koshari> greenthumb and the destination directory will be in the settings
[08:59] <greenthumb> koshari:  settings in limewire?
[09:00] <koshari> imchrislabeard do you meed gparted?
[09:00] <koshari>  greenthumb cant help ypu there.

[09:01] <jim_p> RickLinux: through ubuntu?
[09:01] <RickLinux> Yes
[09:02] <RickLinux> jim_p yes, through ubuntu
[09:02] <ShinobiTeno> is there any "cleaning" program ie to kill pidgin logs and other well known trash... or it is best to write "rm script" manually?..
[09:02] <greenthumb> jim_p: i know how to change loc, i just didnt know where my c drive in windows was. but i found out now :) media/disk/
[09:02] <koshari> RickLinux in a VM?

[09:03] <koshari> RickLinux you want to dual boot, and the grub installer should see both installs and add them to the menu.1st file
[09:04] <RickLinux> Koshari: How do I do that?
[09:04] <jim_p> greencookie: are you sure this is your drive? does it have other contents there
[09:04] <koshari> RickLinux make some room , make a partition, run the debian installer
[09:04] <jim_p> RickLinux: you need some virtualization program
[09:04] <koshari> you will need to downlaod a debian install disk
[09:05] <aussie_nutt> why do u need both for
[09:05] <koshari> RickLinux  you wont need virtualiasation if you are dual booting,
[09:05] <ShinobiTeno> RickLinux, Debian was first linux I installed with NO knowledge! Its not that diffucult at all.
[09:05] <RickLinux> Is there an installer for debian?
[09:06] <ShinobiTeno> RickLinux get lastest stable ISO, burn it as image and let go!)
[09:06] <koshari> RickLinux there will be on the distribution disk, you will have to boot into it just like windows or ubuntu
[09:06] <RickLinux> Alright. Thanks fella's.
[09:07] <jim_p> RickLinux: get the latest TESTING iso from debian. stable is as ancient as the dinosaurs
[09:07] <stitchedwings> hello
[09:07] <jim_p> helloo
[09:07] <aussie_nutt> lenny i think that is
[09:07] <xPhilosx> RickLinux, debian tends to confuse people at times because it looks like the install files are abnormally huge.  Just download the minimal install disk and then burn the ISO and perform a net install.  You will download all the packages you want as you install.
[09:07] <AdvoWork> hi there, im having a problem with a mounted share, in /home i do ls it takes AGES, then its listing a folder NEWcompleted(shows in red), if i cd to that folder and do ls it takes ages then says: ls: .: Input/output error. I originally do //tstation/Completed$ /home/NEWcompleted   smbfs  defaults  0  0 in /etc/fstab and ive tried sudo mount -a and that works, any ideas?
[09:08] <koshari> AdvoWork use cifs instead of smb

[09:09] <AdvoWork> koshari never heard of cifs and how come?
[09:09] <ice111111> Hello!

[09:10] <ice111111> Nice to meet you!
[09:11] <ShinobiTeno> jim_p: on debian: stable is not that ancient) besides it is meant to make a good base system. later, and testing repositories and do an update. voila - upgraded to testing.

[09:12] <ReVoLveR> hi, I've been using Xubuntu like for 3 months now. Last night after I shut down the pc I opened it today, and the top and bottom panel is missing. Any solution for this anyone?
[09:12] <morningwalker> how is ubuntu as a server??
[09:12] <morningwalker> how is ubuntu as a server??
[09:13] <jeeves> how do I enable VNC control over my computer over the internet?
[09:13] <AdvoWork> koshari is that link the same?
[09:13] <koshari> AdvoWork i typos the first one
[09:13] <dontchoke> what is i686?
[09:13] <gnuskool> ReVoLveR: in terminal type xfce4-panel
[09:13] <koshari> AdvoWork no "+" at the end
[09:13] <balachmar> If I try to use java, I get that it is not found, however, I do have it installed /usr/lib/jvm/java-6-sun-<IP_ADDRESS>/bin/javac
[09:14] <balachmar> (I also mean javac)
[09:14] <AdvoWork> koshari yeah but its the same thread number?
[09:14] <jim_p> ShinobiTeno: gnome 2.18, kernel 2.6.18, kde 3.5.5, firefox 2 and so on. all these are like 1.5 years old and in linux "years" they are as old as a 50yo person
[09:14] <elvelind> hi. I just updated the kernel and now the nvidia module can't load.
[09:14] <elvelind> I've tried reinstalling it but no luck.
[09:14] <ReVoLveR> gnuskool : whats the shortcut key to open terminal? I cannot open terminal like I used to open before coz I don't see the top panel.
[09:14] <gnuskool> balachmar: YOU NEED THE STANDARD SDK, LOOK AT SUN.COM
[09:14] <koshari> AdvoWork correct, i just thaught the first link wouldnt work with the plus accidently added to the end
[09:15] <gnuskool> ReVoLveR: press f2, type terminal
[09:15] <ShinobiTeno> jim_p: yes, yes, but again it is not supposed to be used, but supposed to BUILD a base system. Im not that sure testing will INSTALL ok...
[09:15] <balachmar> gnuskool: Why? This worked before...
[09:15] <koshari> elvelind were you using envy?
[09:15] <elvelind> envy?
[09:15] <ShinobiTeno> jim_p: adding testing to reps and doing upgrade instantly transforms stable into testing.
[09:15] <elvelind> koshari, standard intrepid install
[09:15] <AdvoWork> koshari how can i test if thats worked?
[09:15] <koshari> elvelind unlikely then if you havnt heard of it
[09:16] <koshari> AdvoWork how do you meand?
[09:16] <gnuskool> balachmar: sometimes you just need to point to the java directory in your path
[09:16] <ReVoLveR> gnuskool : thanks bro, that was useful
[09:16] <gnuskool> ReVoLveR: no worries
[09:16] <AdvoWork> koshari i mean, now ive but a cifs entry into /etc/fstab how can i check if its working?
[09:16] <jim_p> ShinobiTeno: i know. it is just too much for me to install an old base system and upgrade 1GB of stuff to get to present day
[09:16] <koshari> elvelind see intrepid support, remember intrepid is under heavy development
[09:17] <ShinobiTeno> jim_p: well it depends)) matter of preference:)
[09:17] <balachmar> gnuskool: I shouldn't because java and javac are in /usr/bin and there is a simlink to /etc/alternatives, which points to the correct java executable.
[09:17] <jim_p> ShinobiTeno: i agree. i prefer the bottom up solution.
[09:17] <koshari> AdvoWork sudo mount -a
[09:17] <elvelind> koshari, as in the forums?
[09:17] <balachmar> gnuskool: And I can see those files with ls, however I cannot read them, because then I get that the file was not found...
[09:18] <gnuskool> balachmar: soz, not sure, i had minor issues with it on my eclipse install which I solved by installing the sdk
[09:18] <aussie_nutt> is nvidia glx config enabled

[09:19] <MadGhost> I want ask to question.

[09:19] <elvelind> koshari, ah. okey.
[09:20] <koshari> AdvoWork if your smb line is in fstab mount will look after it, basically if you run mount -a it will update your mounts with the latest fstab entry
[09:20] <elvelind> koshari, any advice on why the module can't be found?
[09:20] <hwilde> !usb | MadGhost
  very thank you :-)
[09:20] <hwilde> !cube | philip_
[09:20] <koshari> elvelind i could only guess, like i said there is heavy development in 8.10 and it may be a broken package or anything
[09:21] <balachmar> nevermind, I manually edited the alternatives link
[09:21] <koshari> !intrepid | elvelind
