[01:26] <battlesquid> Seveas, i have added the gpg key as you outlined on the front page. i'm not sure which package i need, but i need syntax highlighting to work properly
[01:26] <philiKON> huiber1: i removed myself from the audio group
[01:26] <gavintu> if i want to find a file... lets say "buntu*", through console how would I do that?
[01:26] <philiKON> huiber1: and killed all my hanging processes
[01:27] <[Kork] > hi. somebody know a way to add a repository exclusively for one package?
[01:27] <philiKON> huiber1: among them was esd
[01:27] <philiKON> huiber1: now i can log in again
[01:27] <philiKON> huiber1: thanks
[01:27] <david_> huiber1: I'm not event sure how far it got in pre-install terms - the window for system upgrade is not very informative...
[01:27] <huiber1> philiKON: "huiber1: now i can log in again" YEAH
[01:28] <huiber1> david_: if the opera bug bit you, your halfway down package-upgrade-lane

[01:28] <david_> huiber1: I hoped you'd tell me all was well and nothing had been done yet :o/ Any thoughts what can be done?
[01:29] <huiber1> david: once you start, there is only one way to go: FORWARD
[01:29] <philiKON> btw, ubuntu 6.10 is very very nice
[01:29] <david_> huiber1: That's fine - it's DOWN that worries me
[01:29] <frogzoo> philiKON: much over dapper ?
[01:29] <philiKON> dunno
[01:30] <jerp> sorry, mb=MB  (as in motherboard)
[01:30] <philiKON> it's the first ubuntu i've tried
[01:30] <philiKON> after having been a long time debian user up until 3 years ago
[01:30] <philiKON> when i switched to the mac
[01:30] <frogzoo> philiKON: ah, k
[01:30] <savvas> philiKON: it's the human theme that does the trick :p
[01:30] <philiKON> heh
[01:31] <battlesquid> Seveas, after adding the lines to sources.list and running apt-get update i get  "GPG error: http://seveas.imbrandon.com dapper-seveas Release: The following signatures couldn't be verified because the public key is not available: ..."

[01:32] <bXi> is it possible to move a windows partition from a 30gb disk to a partition on a 200gb ?
[01:32] <savvas> !seveas
[01:32] <ubotu> Seveas has a popular 3rd party repository for several packages. More info (and mirrors) on http://wiki.ubuntu.com/SeveasPackages
[01:32] <huiber1> david_: I helped somebody before, who upgraded from 5.10 to 6.06 and in the middle off it all there was a power outage.
[01:32] <livingtarget> battlesquid: try wget http://seveas.imbrandon.com/1135D466.gpg -O- | sudo apt-key add -
[01:32] <huiber1> david_: system could only start in single user mode
[01:32] <battlesquid> livingtarget, i have done that
[01:32] <ath0_up> what do i need to change in the vsftpd configuration file to have it sharing a folder without password?
[01:32] <livingtarget> it should have added the key
[01:32] <ath0_up> not my home
[01:32] <frogzoo> bXi: partition, no, all the files, yes
[01:33] <huiber1> david_: after starting dist-upgrade from console a few times (salted wit a few FORCE parameters) everything was OK in an hour
[01:33] <blekos> how can i make vlc the default player for firefox?
[01:33] <battlesquid> livingdaylight, it took a while, but output nothing so i assume it went OK
[01:34] <livingdaylight> battlesquid, huh?
[01:34] <livingtarget> he meant me
[01:34] <livingdaylight> ok
[01:34] <savvas> battlesquid: it should say 'OK'
[01:34] <bimberi> too much living :)
[01:34] <Shock> hey I need help installing ubuntu 6.1
[01:34] <livingdaylight> hey, Lots of LIVING going on here
[01:35] <david_> huiber1: Sounds encouraging. Where do we start?
[01:35] <bimberi> hi battlesquid.  After all that there's a ready made backport available :)
[01:35] <livingdaylight> shock, 6.1 doesn't exist
[01:35] <bimberi> livingdaylight: :)
[01:35] <philiKON> how do i tell gnome-terminal to remember more lines of output?
[01:35] <livingdaylight> bimberi, hehe
[01:35] <huiber1> david_: is the normal ubuntu updater stopped
[01:35] <Shock> http://www.ubuntu.com/products/GetUbuntu/download?action=show&redirect=download
[01:35] <jokoon> Is it legal to us windows xp emulated with VMWare under linux ?
[01:35] <livingdaylight> and lots of DYING!
[01:35] <david_> huiber1: Yeah
[01:35] <iwkse> philiKON: look inside optiosn
[01:35] <Shock> it does exist..
[01:36] <livingdaylight> Shock, what exactly is the problem?
[01:36] <battlesquid> living*: get a new nick ^^
[01:36] <huiber1> david_: ok, what programms are still running?
[01:36] <iwkse> jokoon: if you have a licence of xp, why not?
[01:36] <Toma-> jokoon: if you own the windows xp disk yes
[01:36] <philiKON> iwkse: that's what i mean... where *are* the options? ;)
[01:36] <finalbeta> jokoon, for XP yes, for Vista no. You still need a Valid key for XP though.
[01:36] <Shock> I am getting an error like : [numbers]  buffer i/o error at... [numbers]
[01:36] <livingdaylight> Shock, yes, you meant ubuntu 6.10
[01:36] <frogzoo> jokoon: it's legal as long as you have a xp licence for that machine, I believe (no legal expert)
[01:36] <david_> huiber1: I seem to have full functionality - am running terminal and XChat at the mo
[01:36] <jokoon> iwkse So I need a disk of windows XP, there is no existing VMX downloadable files ?
[01:37] <Shock> when I run the start and install ubuntu option from the live cd boot up
[01:37] <livingdaylight> Shock, talk to me bro, otherwise ...
[01:37] <savvas> livingdaylight: simple mathematics rule make 6.1 to be the same as 6.10
[01:37] <finalbeta> jokoon, no there are none, that would be illigal.
[01:37] <huiber1> david_: good. start a terminal and do a "sudo root"
[01:37] <livingdaylight> savvas, nope. 10 refers to October
[01:37] <Shock> livingdaylight, pm please?
[01:37] <jokoon> and what if I ask here if there are these files on bittorrent ?
[01:37] <iwkse> jokoon: no, there ins't
[01:37] <david_> huiber1: sudo: root: command not found
[01:38] <livingdaylight> Shock, just say what your problem is and i or someone might be able to help you
[01:38] <savvas> Shock: what were you doing exactly when you got that error? did you download the cd image and checked it with md5sum if it's ok?
[01:38] <huiber1> david_: sorry, to fast typing on my side, try "sudo su"
[01:38] <bimberi> philiKON: Edit, Current Profile, Scrolling
[01:38] <philiKON> bimberi: ah, thanks
[01:38] <Shock> yes I did check the md5 checksum
[01:38] <david_> huiber1: Better :o)
[01:38] <Shock> it matches
[01:38] <jokoon> But I need the pro version to emulate a windows xp ? not only the player version ?
[01:38] <livingdaylight> Shock, did you check for defects on loading the cd as well?
[01:39] <Shock> but I get a buffer i/o error during install from the boot cd
[01:39] <livingtarget> battlesquid: check your pm
[01:39] <admin123> We have amd systemes which have SIS chipets and intel systems which have Via chipsets. I was wondering how well X autoconfiguration is implented. for example: dpkg-reconfigure -f noninteractive -pcritical xserver-xorg dosn't modify my configuration, when I put a via cipset driver on a nv driver it still remains standing on the nv driver instead of chaning it.
[01:39] <Shock> livingdaylight, I get the same errors when I do that
[01:39] <iwkse> jokoon: yo need a plaer and a vmx image
[01:39] <huiber1> david_: now type: "apt-get dist-upgrade"
[01:39] <iwkse> jokoon: player... wmvare server allow to create a vmx image
[01:39] <frogzoo> jokoon: vmware player will run xp - you install from the cd
[01:39] <battlesquid> livingdaylight, i can't see any pm (why?)
[01:40] <zOap> is there a deny application at boot list? I need nautilus for some things but I don't want it to start when I boot my computer since I use worker for my fm needs...
[01:40] <battlesquid> s/daylight/target/
[01:40] <livingdaylight> battlesquid, wassup?
[01:40] <Shock> Hello?

[01:40] <battlesquid> :-P
[01:40] <jokoon> So just with VMWare player and a windows xp disk and a xp key I can emulate winxop
[01:40] <cypher1> battlesquid, have you identified to the nickserv ?
[01:40] <jokoon> -o
[01:40] <frogzoo> jokoon: there's a site that will create the vmx image for you for free
[01:40] <battlesquid> livingdaylight, i'm using xchat
[01:40] <savvas> Shock: during which part of the installation? are you using the manual steps or the normal guided installation?
[01:40] <frogzoo> !vmware
[01:40] <ubotu> VMWare Player is in Ubuntu's !Multiverse repository (package "vmware-player"). Instructions for VMWare Server can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/InstallingVMWare

[01:40] <battlesquid> sorry livingdaylight i mean livingtarget ><
[01:40] <huiber1> david_: do what apt is telling you
[01:41] <frogzoo> jokoon: read the vmware docs, it mentions how to get the vmx setup
[01:41] <Shock> savvas, I used the live cd and I got a menu with 4 or 5 options and I chose the top option
[01:41] <livingdaylight> battlesquid, dude, sort your living+correct target suffix out
[01:41] <huiber1> david_: thats what I did
[01:41] <gavintu> can you put your password on the same command line (as sudo or gksudo) so that it doesn't have to take 2 lines?
[01:41] <iwkse> jokoon: no..
[01:41] <livingtarget> try to save the .gpg file manually in your homefolder then do  sudo apt-key add 1135D466.gpg
[01:41] <huiber1> david_: My wifes cooking is done, got to eat now.

[01:42] <pecisk> crowd, is is true that EVMS patch is already included in Edgy, t.i. 2.6.17 kernel?
[01:42] <savvas> Shock: so it's not during the installation? it's when you clicked on that menu item?
[01:42] <iwkse> jokoon: if you have a vmplayer and a winxp install cd you will not solve it
[01:42] <Shock> savvas, yeah
[01:42] <battlesquid> cypher1, yes, why do you ask?
[01:42] <frogzoo> jokoon: yes, well, that, a vmx image (which is just a simple text file) and an xp licence
[01:42] <savvas> Shock: what did you choose?
[01:42] <Shock> savvas, during the boot up menu I selected start/install

[01:43] <Shock> savvas, what installation program?
[01:43] <iwkse> s/vmdk/vmkd
[01:43] <frogzoo> iwkse: you don't need vmware server to create images

[01:47] <savvas> fun :)
[01:47] <cypher1> savvas, the directories accessible depends on the directory into which the users login.. in case of chrooted users and little different for others

[01:50] <Reolosi> I'm trying to install Ubuntu, after a few minutes of running my monitor said "Frequency out of range!" and switched to standby, and now it says "DPMS no signal"
[01:50] <bimberi> livingtarget: np :)
[01:50] <finalbeta> napg, no idea, but when it does that, use "alsamixer" , go to the master channel and press M. it should be unmuted. (you can do that for every channel that's muted)
[01:50] <athum> cypher1: do u know?
[01:50] <frogzoo> iwkse: http://www.easyvmx.com/
[01:51] <iwkse> frogzoo: thanks
[01:51] <Reolosi> Is there anything I can do?
[01:51] <cypher1> athum, i did not understand your question
[01:51] <battlesquid> ok, i have the gpg key and added the Seveas lines to /etc/apt/sources.list but if i do sudo apt-get install vim now (have already purge removed vim) will i get vim from Seveas repo or the regular?
[01:51] <athum> how to install TUNER TV: KWORLD LTV 883, chipset : Conexant883
[01:51] <bimberi> battlesquid: should get the latest version (ie. from Seveas' repo)
[01:52] <livingtarget> if you did apt-get update first and then try it, it "should" work
[01:52] <napg> finalbeta, even on the alsamixer the sound doesnt show as muted and all the sliders are maxed out but i get no sound
[01:52] <Reolosi> Does it try to switch to 1280x1024 or something? my monitor's max is 1024x768
[01:52] <cypher1> athum, sorry i do not know.. someone here who knows it will respond to you

[01:58] <Reolosi> I'm trying to install Ubuntu, after a few minutes of running my monitor said "Frequency out of range!" and switched to standby, and now it says "DPMS no signal"
[01:58] <finalbeta> dasMetty, http://www.snipes.org/index.php?page=How_To_Setup_A_Transparent_Network_Bridge That page might help but will need some modding I guess.
[01:58] <jrib> vinicri: "put in line" where?
[01:58] <david_> huiber1: OK. Still says same thing. Culminating in "E: Unmet dependencies. Try apt-get -f install with no packages (or specify a solution)."
[01:58] <JJAUA> sorry ubotu... i'm kind of new with this stuff... and Thanks jrib...
[01:58] <battlesquid> JJAUA, ubotu is a bot :)

[02:01] <First|Laptop> felixfoertsch_: I'm pretty sure crossover will let you run it.
[02:01] <storkme> how can i make it so that when i press ctrl+alt+backspace it restarts and logs back into my desktop user instead of bringing up the login screen
[02:01] <vinicri> jrib, how i can i do it?
[02:01] <DARKGuy> Good morning :) can anybody reccommend (spelling?) me a good python IDE/editor with syntax highlighting and possibly run the script in the same program? easy to use too, Vi's worse than a spaceship terminal
[02:01] <felixfoertsch_> First|Laptop: What is crossover?
[02:02] <H3g3m0n> storkme: You can enable automagical gdm login it will mean it autologins on computer boot too though
[02:02] <First|Laptop> Hold on, I'm looking up some more info. I saw it mentioned on a forum but never had a reason to delve into it.
[02:02] <storkme> H3g3m0n, yeah, that's what i want.. how can i do that?

[02:04] <tigerman> Anyone know of a program that can restore a damaged superblock?
[02:04] <DarkED> During this time, the OS just locks, clock doesnt change, mouse doesn't move, nadda
[02:04] <falta> http://ubuntu-releases.cs.umn.edu//6.06/ubuntu-6.06.1-desktop-i386.iso <--- works as livecd?
[02:04] <storkme> H3g3m0n, yeah, i've done that, but it doesn't work if i press ctrl+alt+backspace.. it brings me back to the login screen
[02:04] <vinicri> jrib, the links don't access the files directly. I need a script that just find the link on the page and download it
[02:04] <First|Laptop> felixfoertsch_: photoshop is supported
[02:04] <Reolosi> btw, can i install ubuntu to the hdd from the livecd like with other livecds?
[02:04] <DarkED> I know the iso and disc are valid, I checksummed both of them
[02:04] <felixfoertsch_> First|Laptop: Yep. Looked it up. Thanks!
[02:05] <H3g3m0n> storkme: You might need timed logins too, i think auto is just for initial boot timed works for xcrashes (you can just press enter if the time is taking too long)
[02:05] <eloquence_> is this correct:
[02:05] <eloquence_> adil@provision:~/ieee80211-1.1.14$ sudo apt-get install linux-source-2.6.15-27-386
[02:05] <First|Laptop> np
[02:05] <eloquence_> ?
[02:05] <jrib> vinicri: I see, I don't know of any specifically made to do that with rapidshare then
[02:05] <DarkED> basically I want to install 6.10 but I can't because it locks up before I have the chance, so what can I do?
[02:05] <falta> im a bit new here
[02:05] <eloquence_> or am i supposed to leave off the -27-386 ?
[02:05] <falta> can I burn http://ubuntu-releases.cs.umn.edu//6.06/ubuntu-6.06.1-desktop-i386.iso as livecd to boot?
[02:05] <bimberi> battlesquid: cool :)
[02:05] <eloquence_> any ideas?
[02:06] <dcordes> !ftp
[02:06] <ubotu> FTP clients: gftp, konqueror, kbear, nautilus. FTP servers: ftpd, proftpd, pure-ftpd, twoftpd, vsftpd
[02:06] <boink> falta: yes
[02:06] <falta> mkay
[02:06] <HymnToLife> eloquence_, you most likely don't need to install the full kernel source, but just the headers
[02:06] <felixfoertsch_> Thx @ all!
[02:06] <HymnToLife> do      sudo apt-get install linux-headers-$(uname -r)
[02:06] <battlesquid> and thanks to everyone who helped me, from me and the users on my server!
[02:06] <finalbeta> nautilus = ftp client, lol.
[02:07] <HymnToLife> Windows Explorer inj an FTP client, too :p
[02:07] <eloquence_> i did the headers
[02:07] <HymnToLife> is*
[02:07] <tigerman> yep..
[02:07] <eloquence_> and i am having the sam eproblem that i was having
[02:07] <eloquence_> its rediculous
[02:07] <tigerman> its not a GOOD one, but it is one
[02:07] <HymnToLife> which is ?
[02:07] <livingtarget> While I'm here I might as well ask about this. Often I need to change my grub and each time I install a new kernel I will have to do those changes again. For example I need grub to boot of /dev/hdc1 instead of /dev/hda1
[02:07] <DarkED> Anyone have any ideas?
[02:07] <eloquence_> trying to install ieee80211 subsystem to install interl ipw3945 wireless lan drivers
[02:08] <Reolosi> Can I install Ubuntu from the Live CD?
[02:08] <jrib> DarkED: have you tried the alternate cd?
[02:08] <boink> livingtarget: have you used "update-grub" ?
[02:08] <DarkED> jrib: Alternate?
[02:08] <HymnToLife> livingtarget, edit the automagic options at the beginning of your menu.lst
[02:08] <finalbeta> Reolosi, yes, you are supposed 2
[02:08] <HymnToLife> before the actual kernels list
[02:08] <DarkED> jrib: I was aware that the only installer was on the liveCD for this version...
[02:08] <HymnToLife> eloquence_, were installed OOTB for me...
[02:08] <Reolosi> well my disc is Ubuntu 4.10
[02:09] <Nazcafan> hi
[02:09] <bimberi> Reolosi: not that LiveCD, no
[02:09] <eloquence_> http://pastebin.ca/264382
[02:09] <jrib> DarkED: what version?
[02:09] <DarkED> jrib: 6.10 Edgy
[02:09] <finalbeta> Reolosi, then you should have put that info in the initial question :/
[02:09] <jrib> DarkED: http://mirrors.csumb.edu/ubuntu/edgy/
[02:09] <DarkED> jrib: i know there is a DVD version but I don't have a DVD burner
[02:09] <livingtarget> HymnToLife: So where it says # kopt_2_6=root=/dev/hda1 ro I change that to match /dev/hdc1?
[02:09] <Reolosi> Ah, sorry
[02:09] <boink> DarkED: you have the alternate iso images as well
[02:09] <noiesmo> yeah go for it
[02:09] <boink> I had to one use one
[02:09] <Nazcafan> I recompiled my kernel on an old laptop (with dapper), everything is fine but I get a black screen at boot until gdm starts ... any clue ?
[02:09] <HymnToLife> eloquence_, you shouldn't have done that I think
[02:10] <Reolosi> Will 6.06.1 be okay, or should I go for the absolute latest?
[02:10] <eloquence_> has anybody had the same problem with ieee80211?
[02:10] <DarkED> so the alt has the text-based installer
[02:10] <boink> Reolosi: depends on your pain factor
[02:10] <eloquence_> what do u mean?
[02:10] <HymnToLife> my ipw3945 worked OOTB in Dapper and Edgy
[02:10] <First|Laptop> Reolosi: Dapper is quite stable
[02:10] <boink> darkED: yes
[02:10] <eloquence_> hymn mine worked too
[02:10] <HymnToLife> I think you messed something up by trying to install them
[02:10] <Reolosi> Dapper = <IP_ADDRESS>?
[02:10] <First|Laptop> yes
[02:10] <eloquence_> but was an unrecognized device
[02:10] <boink> Dapper is a LTS
[02:10] <finalbeta> Reolosi, 6.06.1 is the most stable version, will be supported longer then the newest. The newest does have newer gnome etc, but is buggy.
[02:10] <boink> !LTS
[02:10] <ubotu> LTS means Long Term Support. LTS versions of Ubuntu will be supported for 3 years on the desktop, and 5 years on the server.
[02:11] <eloquence_> i tried to install some drivers yesterday ... sum1 told me i needed broadcom drivers not intel
[02:11] <eloquence_> when i did that
[02:11] <boink> edgy is ... well, on the edge
[02:11] <eloquence_> it wiped my wireless device off
[02:11] <HymnToLife> hmm
[02:11] <First|Laptop> sort of
[02:11] <jrib> Reolosi: main advantage of 6.06: security releases for longer (with 6.10 you'll need to upgrade sooner)    main advantage of 6.10: more recent software
[02:11] <dcordes> where can i find a good guide on creating an ftpserver?
[02:11] <eloquence_> now i am screwed kind of
[02:11] <HymnToLife> are you _sure_ your card is an ipw3945 ?
[02:11] <eloquence_> and need to install the real drivers no matter what
[02:11] <boink> dcordes: yes
[02:11] <boink> !pure_ftpd
[02:11] <eloquence_> i have an HP dv8000t laptop
[02:11] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about pure_ftpd - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[02:11] <First|Laptop> hmm
[02:11] <eloquence_> and it says it uses that type
[02:11] <First|Laptop> !pureftpd
[02:11] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about pureftpd - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[02:11] <First|Laptop> Guess not
[02:11] <boink> hmm .. pure_ftpd is a good ftp server. easy to set up and very secure
[02:12] <HymnToLife> [14:09]  <livingtarget> HymnToLife: So where it says # kopt_2_6=root=/dev/hda1 ro I change that to match /dev/hdc1?     <= exactrly
[02:12] <dcordes> i allready have ftp installed but i don't know how to configure
[02:12] <boink> do a good search: pure_ftpd and ubuntu
[02:12] <jrib> Reolosi: try the live cd for each version and see what you prefer.  I don't find edgy buggy, but I may just not use the features that have bugs I guess
[02:12] <dcordes> so you suggest pure_ftp?
[02:12] <boink> dapper is quite solid, though
[02:12] <HymnToLife> eloquence_, what does lspci tell you regarding your wireles nic ?
[02:12] <bimberi> Nazcafan: I have a similiar issue (since installing Edgy) fixed by adding "vga=773" to the relevent kernel line in /boot/grub/menu.lst
[02:12] <boink> I like pure-ftpd, yeah.
[02:12] <finalbeta> dcordes, then you should have mentioned that in the first question again. What FTPd.
[02:12] <TheMafia> I installed skype and have it working on dapper, does skype offer video chat?
[02:12] <eloquence_> not much
[02:12] <DarkED> okay, well like i said, the performace of the livecd was horrible, if i install the actual OS is that what I'm looking at?
[02:13] <boink> DarkED: who knows
[02:13] <boink> try it and find out
[02:13] <dcordes> finalbeta: sorry. pure_Ftp
[02:13] <TheMafia> DarkED, probably not
[02:13] <jrib> DarkED: the livecd is usually a lot slower since it is running from the cd
[02:13] <Nazcafan> bimberi: I run a dapper, I'll try to add what you said, thanks
[02:13] <livingtarget> HymnToLife: thx, that did the trick it's all changed automatically now. :)
[02:13] <HymnToLife> eloquence_, please pastebin your lspci ;)
[02:13] <eloquence_> i will
[02:13] <eloquence_> one sec
[02:13] <DarkED> yeah, sorry for so many questions, I've just never tried running linux on a system this slow before...
[02:13] <eloquence_> i pastebinned it earlier just finding the url
[02:13] <HymnToLife> livingtarget, yeah, that's what it's for ;)
[02:13] <jrib> DarkED: how slow?
[02:14] <boink> I have edgy running on an old Sony laptop .. made for Win 98
[02:14] <eloquence_> http://pastebin.ca/264355
[02:14] <boink> works just fine
[02:14] <dcordes> !ftp
[02:14] <ubotu> FTP clients: gftp, konqueror, kbear, nautilus. FTP servers: ftpd, proftpd, pure-ftpd, twoftpd, vsftpd
[02:14] <livingtarget> lol it's just confusing as it's commented out
[02:14] <[^Twen^] > I'm trying to install Ubuntu on my computer, but when I'm clicking "install ubuntu" the installation won't really start. I'm getting this message:
[02:14] <[^Twen^] > *Timeout waiting for DMA
[02:14] <[^Twen^] >  what does it means?
[02:14] <eloquence_> this is lspci and dmesg both
[02:14] <boink> Twen: it means you should use the alternate CD
[02:14] <DarkED> jrib: Compaq Armada laptop, Celery 700mhz, 192meg ram, 100mhz bus
[02:14] <[^Twen^] > boink: oh? and whats that? =)
[02:15] <boink> check the iso download page, you'll fine the alternate iso image there
[02:15] <jrib> DarkED: you might want to try Xubuntu, it's meant for slower systems
[02:15] <HymnToLife> eloquence_, and    lspci -n ?
[02:15] <boink> I'm using xubuntu on that old sony laptop, works alright
[02:15] <boink> had some problems with the wireless, though.
[02:15] <DarkED> boink: sys specs?
[02:15] <Nazcafan> bimberi: the thing is that this option is not there for the standard ubuntu kernel and they work fine :(
[02:15] <boink> well, think of a sony vaio in 1999 :)
[02:16] <DarkED> boink: yep, same here :D Compaq Armada in 1999
[02:16] <bobbyd> hi
[02:16] <eloquence_> HymnToLife, http://pastebin.ca/264462
[02:16] <boink> so, firstly use xubuntu and then use the alternate CD
[02:16] <eloquence_> the same old stuff with new lspci -n
[02:16] <[^Twen^] > boink: so it means I cannot use Ubuntu? Do I have to use xubuntu or something?
[02:16] <boink> gnome and kde are too much bloat
[02:16] <boink> you could try ubuntu
[02:16] <DarkED> besides having the celeron, this was actually a high-end laptop when it was made... so sad
[02:17] <[^Twen^] > boink: but It wont work?
[02:17] <bobbyd> the version of vide lan client in edgy doesn't seem to have transcoding codecs compiled in, when I try to set up a stream to transcode a file it just fails. Does anyone have this working?
[02:17] <boink> xfce works quite well, though
[02:17] <boink> Twen: I don't know, I don't have a crystal ball.
[02:17] <boink> just try it
[02:17] <jrib> [^Twen^] : no, alternate cd is just a different way to install.  It is text-based instead of loading you into the gui for the install.  And Xubuntu is still ubunut, it just uses xfce by default
[02:17] <DarkED> boink: yeah but can't I just setup normal Ubuntu then apt-get xubuntu-desktop?
[02:17] <boink> sure
[02:18] <[^Twen^] > jrib: thank you :)
[02:18] <DarkED> okay, just checking :D been a while...
[02:18] <HymnToLife> eloquence_, yep, it's indeed an ipw3945
[02:18] <[^Twen^] > jrib: cause it really seemed like the installation wouldn't start..
[02:18] <boink> bobbyd: you need to adjust your /etc/apt/sources.list
[02:18] <eloquence_> check this out to: http://pastebin.ca/264380
[02:18] <boink> then download the right codecs.
[02:18] <boink> !codecs
[02:18] <ubotu> For multimedia issues, this page has useful information: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats - See also http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/desktopguide/C/common-tasks-chap.html - But please use free formats if you can: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FreeFormats
[02:18] <[^Twen^] > jrib: you know where I can find an Alternade version/CD ?
[02:18] <HymnToLife> but what annoys me is that mine worked ootb
[02:19] <eloquence_> mine did too
[02:19] <DarkED> i really hope this alternate cd works... its a lot of trouble to download ANOTHER CD...
[02:19] <HymnToLife> I think you messed something trying to install the ieee802.22 subsystem
[02:19] <bobbyd> boink: to encode with VLC?
[02:19] <eloquence_> but i unfed it up last night thinkin it was broadcom thanks to sum1
[02:19] <eloquence_> no
[02:19] <jrib> [^Twen^] : it's on the download page, as "other isntallation options".  You'll end up at a page like this one http://mirrors.csumb.edu/ubuntu/edgy/ and it is on there, just grep for "alternate"
[02:19] <DarkED> oh noes... uh... can the alt-cd installer resize a NTFS?
[02:19] <HymnToLife> eloquence_, then why on earth did you mess up with that ?
[02:19] <boink> to rip dvds?
[02:19] <eloquence_> since this morning my computer wasn't recognizing the wlan
[02:19] <huiber1> david_: then try "apt-get install -f" just as proposed by apt-get it self (the programm is very helpfull)
[02:20] <Nazcafan> bimberi: it didn't work for me :( worse, now the consoles don't work anymore
[02:20] <Ring_Donut> Is there a Linux From Scratch Channel?
[02:20] <eloquence_> ieee80211 had nothing to do with the thing not working
[02:20] <eloquence_> i am trying to fix what happened
[02:20] <bobbyd> boink: the videlan guys just told me all codecs were compiled in to VLC...
[02:20] <flavioribeiro> Hi, i have a USB sound, but i only can hear if i restart the X. When i press control alt backspace my sound starts.. anyone know any command that restart the usb ports?
[02:20] <bimberi> Nazcafan: quick, take it back out again
[02:20] <eloquence_> HymnToLife, i was just advised that it is better to have your device driver loaded than for linux to just make things work
[02:20] <eloquence_> if u know what i mena
[02:20] <eloquence_> like windows i guess
[02:20] <Nazcafan> bimberi: I'm working on it
[02:20] <[^Twen^] > Now I started the alternate download. Thank you.
[02:21] <Nazcafan> bimberi: I think I'll just desactivate splash boot
[02:21] <HymnToLife> well, no, it's not working the same ;)
[02:21] <Nazcafan> err
[02:21] <HymnToLife> if your hardware is working, then the driver is installed
[02:21] <Nazcafan> disable, I mean
[02:21] <david_> huiber1: Same prob - trying to overwrite that X11 bin directory "which is also in package opera"
[02:21] <ubitux> hi
[02:21] <Ring_Donut> Hi
[02:21] <[^Twen^] > *netsplit* hehe =)
[02:21] <Ring_Donut> lol
[02:21] <Ring_Donut> that looked meaty
[02:21] <Ring_Donut> lol
[02:22] <huiber1> david_: dam** try to remove opera before proceding
[02:22] <bimberi> pfft, just a tiddler
[02:22] <Nazcafan> net split ?
[02:22] <jrib> Ring_Donut: www.linuxfromscratch.org/support.html  lists their official ones
[02:22] <Ring_Donut> jrib: Thankyou
[02:22] <HymnToLife> Nazcafan, a netsplit is what just happened
[02:22] <huiber1> david_: try "dpkg -r opera"
[02:22] <bimberi> !netsplit
[02:22] <ubotu> netsplit is when two IRC servers of the same network (like Freenode) disconnect from each other, so users on one server stop seeing users on the other. If this is happening now, just relax and enjoy the show. See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Netsplit
[02:22] <flavioribeiro> how can i restart the usb ports?
[02:22] <[^Twen^] > do I have to format my HD before installing Ubuntu ?
[02:22] <Nazcafan> HymnToLife: ok, thanks
[02:23] <HymnToLife> but sometimes it can disconnect hundreds of people at once
[02:23] <HymnToLife> and that's cool :p
[02:23] <Rprp> Hi, whats the name of the 'menu' editor?
[02:23] <dcordes> alacarte
[02:23] <david_> huiber1: aha... That seems to have worked. Running install -f now and it's getting much further (still going)
[02:24] <Nazcafan> bimberi: well I disabled the splash screen, now at least it works, the strange thing is that I just changed disabled SMP and PREEMPT before recompiling so it should work exactly as a standard ubuntu kernel ..., maybe I missed stg
[02:24] <huiber1> david_: this may take a while
[02:24] <livingtarget> Alacarta, but it's hidden as Menu Layout in the menus
[02:24] <Ring_Donut> [^Twen^] , nope, unless you want to wipe your previous OS off the HD
[02:25] <huiber1> david_: you may need to issue the command "apt-get install -f" and "apt-get dist-upgrade" a few times untill _all_ packeges are completely upgraded
[02:25] <[^Twen^] > Ring_Donut: hehe, its allready wiped =)
[02:25] <Ring_Donut> [^Twen^] , you can partition the HD and install Ubuntu on the new partition
[02:25] <eloquence_> HymnToLife, any idea what i should do?
[02:25] <eloquence_> right now i am using dialup through ethernet
[02:26] <david_> huiber1: Oh. Yes it has broken - Errors while processing: volumeid. So which command do I try next?
[02:26] <huiber1> david_: hmmm, volume ids are one of the new things in edgy
[02:26] <[^Twen^] > I want to use Ubuntu as a Server. a read a bit about it at www.ubuntu.com/server - Is there any finished LAMP-package for Ubuntu?
[02:26] <huiber1> david_: what errors
[02:26] <[^Twen^] > OR a Ubuntu installation with LAMP?
[02:27] <boink> Twen: yes
[02:27] <Ring_Donut> Twen, I'm actually making a distro for server use, lol
[02:27] <david_> huiber1:
[02:27] <david_> dpkg: error processing volumeid (--configure):
[02:27] <boink> with dapper, that's no problem
[02:27] <david_>  subprocess post-installation script returned error exit status 139
[02:27] <dcordes> where can i find a guide on configuring pure_ftpd?
[02:27] <boink> and the dapper server has support for the next five years
[02:27] <boink> dcords: look on their site
[02:27] <Ring_Donut> I'm using Dapper right now
[02:28] <boink> I use dapper and edgy
[02:28] <flavioribeiro> how can i restart the usb ports?
[02:28] <praveer_fedora> can anyone tell me, how to delete a fat32 partition, create swap space and an ext3fs partition on ubuntu live cd ver 6.06

[02:30] <dcordes> when i start or stop a daemon, my bash doesn't print if it actually is restart or not. it just shows nothing. how can i fix this?
[02:30] <boink> how are you restarting the demon?
[02:30] <Ring_Donut> dcordes, don't use deamons
[02:30] <r7^black> tried to install this, from cd x64, and i boot up from cd and select instal ubuntu, it goes thru, loading linux kernel
[02:30] <r7^black> and gets up to the point where it plays asound
[02:30] <r7^black> but then just has a statis _ in top left of screen
[02:30] <r7^black> yany ideas?
[02:30] <Ring_Donut> r7^black: download the alternate install CD from Ubuntu website
[02:31] <dcordes> Ring_donut:??
[02:31] <r7^black> will that definately do it?
[02:31] <boink> who knows
[02:31] <boink> try it
[02:31] <Ring_Donut> dcordes, yes?
[02:31] <Ring_Donut> It worked for me
[02:31] <dcordes> Ring_Donut: why shouldn't i use daemons
[02:31] <apral> been playing with 3ddesktop.can i have different desktop backgrounds on the four windows in dapper?

[02:32] <Red_Death> Is there a more robust mouse-cursor manager then the one that comes with ubuntu?
[02:32] <davor> jrib: thanks
[02:33] <huiber1> david_: sorry, I have no ideas (yer) how to fix you volumeid problem
[02:33] <r7^black> when you say, download the alternate cd version, do you mean just download it from the site andburn it todisk? just the main download ye?
[02:33] <boink> yes
[02:33] <huiber1> david_: and I will be away for the next 2 Hours.
[02:33] <Ring_Donut> r7^black: maybe your PC just can't handle the almighty power
[02:33] <boink> the alternate cd is just an install cd
[02:33] <Ring_Donut> yeah
[02:33] <Red_Death> Is there a more robust mouse-cursor manager then the one that comes with ubuntu?
[02:33] <r7^black> well wont that be exactly the same as the copies i got sent?
[02:33] <boink> no live-cd stuff
[02:33] <huiber1> david_: I hoped that deleting opera would do the trick....
[02:33] <Andypat10> !ubotu
[02:34] <boink> no, they send out the live-cd
[02:34] <r7^black> ok
[02:34] <Ring_Donut> I didn't use any Live-CD
[02:34] <praveer_fedora> boink: my friend wants to change partition table, he is on ubuntu 6.06, please tell me if there is a partition manager frontend on ubuntu live, or should i guide him to come here
[02:34] <Ring_Donut> So yuo shouldn't either, lol
[02:34] <david_> huiber1: Am ok waiting - things aren't particularly urgent, but how badly broken do you think things are at this point?

[02:36] <Ring_Donut> nice one, r7
[02:36] <huiber1> david_: It may mot be possible to rebbot at this moment
[02:37] <huiber1> david_: in the mean time you could do some googling on volumeid and edgy upgrade problems
[02:37] <huiber1> david_: your not the first to be in this situation
[02:37] <huiber1> david_: bye, see you letar
[02:37] <david_> huiber1: Ok will see what I can find. Thanks for the help

[02:39] <Ring_Donut> r7^black: wel, is it a pirate copy of Windows? ;)
[02:39] <Hoag> Hey. I'm having a problem with wine (I think?) It's regarding a program which loads an exe, which in turn loads another. When I type the command in the terminal, it works fine, but when I do the same command from a launcher, it exits after the first exe. Anyone have a solution?
[02:39] <praveer_fedora> r7^black: chose an empty partiton or empty a partition and install in that
[02:40] <Ring_Donut> praveer_fedora: he quit
[02:40] <praveer_fedora> oops
[02:40] <eloquence_> ok i give up trying to configure ieee80211

[02:59] <xipietotec> is there anything similar to cleartype for Ubuntu?
[03:00] <frogzoo> xipietotec: that depends what cleartype does
[03:00] <xipietotec> frogzoo: cleartype is the new font rendering engine in the latest XP and in Vista
[03:00] <xipietotec> really really smooth good looking fonts
[03:01] <HymnToLife> xipietotec, just setup font antialiasing

[03:01] <dv5237> how can i run a script that issnt in mij ~ but in ~/scripts?
[03:01] <HymnToLife> I don't remember how to do that in GNOME but just Google for it
[03:02] <jrib> dv5237: ~/scripts/name_of_script
[03:02] <boink> aargh, the skype problem is caused by scim. great
[03:02] <HymnToLife> I think oit has not been removed yet :D
[03:02] <HymnToLife> it*
[03:02] <A3n> hi
[03:02] <sirk> c.de
[03:02] <HymnToLife> !hi | A3n
[03:02] <sirk> ops
[03:02] <ubotu> A3n: Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu!
[03:03] <A3n> how do i install build-essential without using internet?
[03:03] <HymnToLife> it is on your CD if you used an alternate
[03:03] <boink> you could maybe install it off the CD
[03:03] <dv5237> jrib: thanks *shame*
[03:03] <A3n> i got the cd shipped, dont know
[03:03] <boink> use the cd as your repo in /etc/apt/sources.list
[03:04] <dcordes> i can't edit the list of restricted modules: "sudo nano /etc/default/linux-restricted-modules-common: No such file or directory" what can be the reason?
[03:04] <boink> because the file doesn't exist
[03:04] <dcordes> boink: yes oviously. but what packet is missing?
[03:05] <HymnToLife> linux-restricted-modules-$(uname -r)
[03:05] <dwad> could someone help me?
[03:05] <boink> !ask
[03:05] <ubotu> Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[03:05] <HymnToLife> !helpme
[03:05] <dcordes> HymnToLife: thx
[03:05] <Ring_Donut> dwad: ask away
[03:06] <dwad> Is it ok to burn ubuntu with nero 7 instead of imgburn?
[03:06] <A3n> i can download files on windows and than mount my ntfs driver and access the linux files, but i dont know what i need to download to be able to use "make" like "make install" for example
[03:06] <gummibaerchen> of course, dwad
[03:06] <Hoag> Hey. Does anyone know how to set a text box alert thing on gAIM when someone signs in? Similar to msn messenger?
[03:07] <HymnToLife> A3n, build-essential
[03:07] <Jowi> !make | A3n
[03:07] <ubotu> A3n: Compiling software from source? Read the tips at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CompilingSoftware (But remember to search for pre-built !packages first: not all !repositories are enabled by default!)
[03:07] <HymnToLife> Hoag, there's a plugin for it IIRC
[03:07] <gummibaerchen> add event, Hoag
[03:07] <dwad> eithery way, they both error out a lot. ive wasted about 15 disks trying to get them to burn successfully, even at low speeds. the 1 i got to work i get to the install part and it says I/o Error on Device sr0 logical block 357564
[03:07] <HymnToLife> just look around in the plugins dialog
[03:07] <elkbuntu> Hoag, try sudo apt-get install gaim-guifications
[03:07] <A3n> yes well i downloaded build-essential but apperantly i cant or dont know how to install it
[03:07] <frogzoo> dwad: anything that can write a bootable cd image will work - so nero7, yes
[03:07] <Hoag> Awesome, thanks all :)
[03:07] <gummibaerchen> dwad: uhh, that's bad, is the file ok (md5sum)?
[03:08] <Jowi> A3n, "sudo apt-get install build-essential"
[03:08] <dcordes> HymnToLife: ok the packet was missing. but i still dont have that file. reboot neccessary?
[03:08] <dwad> md5sum ?
[03:08] <A3n> i dont have internet
[03:08] <boink> you need to make sure your /etc/apt/sources.list is in order
[03:08] <HymnToLife> most likely no
[03:08] <HymnToLife> why do you want to edit that file anyway ?
[03:08] <Jowi> A3n, it's a .deb package?
[03:08] <A3n> i need "make install" to install ndiswrapper so i can get my drives to work
[03:08] <dwad> boink is that to me?
[03:08] <frogzoo> dwad: maybe you're burning faster than the media is spec'd?
[03:08] <Jowi> A3n, "sudo dpkg -i packagename.deb"
[03:09] <A3n> ow.. where do i get the build-essential .deb ?
[03:09] <boink> no, if your /etc/apt/sources.list is pointing to the cd,
[03:09] <boink>  use agpt-get
[03:09] <jrib> A3n: that probably won't work as build-essential just pulls in other packages.  Use the cd as someone suggested, it is on there.  Do you know how to add the cd to your repos?
[03:09] <dwad> ive put it 8x
[03:09] <boink> A3n: are you even listening?
[03:09] <frogzoo> A3n: sudo apt-get install build-essential
[03:09] <A3n> yes
[03:09] <boink> firstly, do an apt-cache search build-essentials
[03:09] <defrysk> -s
[03:10] <A3n> i dont know how to get the files from the cd or w/e
[03:10] <toomawaayyy> hi
[03:10] <A3n> i'm pretty new to linux
[03:10] <toomawaayyy> anyone can help me?
[03:10] <defrysk> !anyone
[03:10] <ubotu> A large amount of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..."  Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out?
[03:10] <jrib> A3n: have you tried inserting the cd while using the desktop?  It usually prompts you to add itself to the repository list
[03:10] <boink> A3N: for the 3rd time, and listen this time, check your /etc/apt/sources.list
[03:11] <boink> I'm not explaining this again
[03:11] <A3n> ok boink, what do i need to check it for?
[03:11] <A3n> what do i search in it?
[03:11] <boink> this is silly. /ignore
[03:11] <A3n> jrib:i'll try that
[03:11] <fyrestrtr> A3n: you need some help?
[03:11] <jrib> A3n: if it doesn't work just go to system > administration > synaptic.  Then edit > add cdrom repository
[03:12] <defrysk> A3n, if you are new to linux you have no business using build-essential
[03:12] <Hoag> elkbuntu: guifications is awesome, thanks a bundle.
[03:12] <A3n> i do i need to get internet to work
[03:12] <elkbuntu> Hoag, :)
[03:12] <A3n> therefor i need ndiswrapper
[03:12] <defrysk> A3n, I see
[03:12] <A3n> and for ndiswrapper i need "make install"
[03:12] <defrysk> !ndiswrapper
[03:12] <ubotu> Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs
[03:12] <effie_jayx> A3n,  I can't remeber using a make install
[03:12] <A3n> i got ndiswrapper i just need to install it
[03:12] <effie_jayx> A3n,  and I did install a broadcom card
[03:13] <A3n> how did you install ndiswrapper then?
[03:13] <fyrestrtr> A3n: the first thing you need to do, is read https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs
[03:13] <A3n> it says so in the ndiswrapper -instalation wiki
[03:13] <toomawaayyy> i have amd athlon X2 3800+ socket AM2 and motherboard asus with chipset nforce4. I have download iso for AMD64 architecture. I boot from cd and select install but after have load kernel, there's a black image with ubuntu and the system don't process with the installation (i've have waited half hour)
[03:13] <defrysk> A3n, why did you not ask about ndiswrapper right away ? (the real question)
[03:13] <toomawaayyy> u know why?
[03:13] <A3n> because i know i need to "make install" it and that is not the problem
[03:14] <A3n> i need to be able to use "make" first
[03:14] <hastesaver> A3n, ndiswrapper may not be necessary... maybe your card can work even without that?
[03:14] <A3n> because i also need "wireless tools for linux" wich also needs "make"
[03:14] <defrysk> A3n, try asking , how do I install ndiswrapper ?
[03:14] <A3n> and gcc
[03:14] <A3n> ive searched alot for other options
[03:14] <defrysk> A3n, might be a clever move you know
[03:15] <fyrestrtr> A3n: put your install media in the CDROM/DVDROM drive.
[03:15] <tabman> can you play rm and wmv files on ubuntu ?
[03:15] <hastesaver> tabman, yes
[03:15] <A3n> my wireless card doesnt have a linux support

[03:16] <tigerman> fyrestrtr: WUZZ
[03:16] <A3n> i am
[03:16] <DarkED> if I cant use partition magic, anyone know a good way to resize an ntfs partition to make a ubuntu partition when i install?
[03:17] <A3n> i tried apt-get already
[03:17] <A3n> but it wont work without internet
[03:17] <HymnToLife> DarkED : GParted
[03:17] <defrysk> A3n, yes it will
[03:17] <hastesaver> DarkED, the ubuntu installation CD has its own partition manager
[03:17] <fyrestrtr> A3n: what error do you get?
[03:17] <hastesaver> DarkED, and it's called gparted
[03:17] <dcordes> HymnToLife: the binary drivers guide for ati drivers in the wiki tells me to. and i suspect that if this file doesn't exist, i have no restricted modules
[03:17] <A3n> that it couldnt apt-get build-essential
[03:17] <tigerman> fyrestrtr: lets pretend its the backup that lost its superblock :p
[03:17] <hastesaver> DarkED, but you could also try resizing it from Windows itself, if Windows has such a feature :-)
[03:17] <DarkED> hastesaver: yes but last i heard gparted won't work on ntfs partitions
[03:17] <HymnToLife> dcordes, could you paste the link top the Wiki ?
[03:17] <A3n> didnt try in gnome mode though
[03:18] <DarkED> hastesaver: no, it doesnt, and the only partitioners worth anything are pay apps =/
[03:18] <dcordes> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto/ATI "Make sure fglrx is not disabled: sudo gedit /etc/default/linux-restricted-modules-common"
[03:18] <HymnToLife> hastesaver, it doesn't
[03:18] <fyrestrtr> A3n: what error do you get with apt-get?
[03:18] <HymnToLife> DarkED, GParted is the bes partitionning app you could ask for
[03:18] <hastesaver> !fuse
[03:18] <ubotu> Though it's still very unsafe, you can read about Ubuntu NTFS writing here: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Lkraider/NtfsFuse
[03:18] <fyrestrtr> dcordes: just check if its not blacklisted.
[03:18] <A3n> cant remember exactly, it said something about not being able to apt-get build-essential
[03:18] <HymnToLife> and it is free, as in freedom :p
[03:18] <Hoag> Hey again. One last thing I'm trying to sort. I have a wine command that has the desired effect through a terminal, but it doesn't act the same from a launcher. What's up with that?
[03:18] <dcordes> fyrestrtr: how do i do so?
[03:18] <hastesaver> fyrestrtr, he doesn't have internet
[03:19] <fyrestrtr> hastesaver: that's fine that he doesn't.
[03:19] <DarkED> HymnToLife: yeah, unless you are resizing an ntfs partition, which gparted will destroy, and what i need to do :D
[03:19] <fyrestrtr> !blacklist | dcordes
[03:19] <ubotu> dcordes: To blacklist a module, edit /etc/modprobe.d/my_blacklist and add "blacklist modulename" to the end of that list
[03:19] <kenny> !
[03:19] <HymnToLife> DarkED, NTFS resizing in GParted works perfectly well
[03:19] <DaGame> Hey, I'm looking for some music library software for linux, what do y'all recommend?
[03:19] <jrib> DaGame: amarok
[03:19] <DarkED> HymnToLife: have you tried it? ;)
[03:19] <kenny> DaGame, which de?
[03:19] <HymnToLife> countless times
[03:19] <A3n> so the build-essential is on the shipped cd i got?
[03:20] <DaGame> kenny, undecided lol
[03:20] <DarkED> HymnToLife: and it didn't destroy every file on the ntfs partition!?
[03:20] <A3n> (dapper drake 6.06)
[03:20] <jrib> A3n: yes
[03:20] <fyrestrtr> A3n: open a terminal window, and type this : grep deb-cdrom /etc/apt/sources.list
[03:20] <A3n> k
[03:20] <jrib> as wel as ndiswrapper stuff
[03:20] <A3n> thanks
[03:20] <kenny> DaGame, well cant go wrong with amarok
[03:20] <A3n> ill come back it if isnt working
[03:20] <HymnToLife> DarkED, nope, or I wouldn't tell you to use it :p
[03:20] <Hoag> Never mind, resolved!
[03:21] <HymnToLife> just run a defrag and a chkdsk /f before, just to make sure
[03:21] <dcordes> fyrestrtr: it isn't blacklisted
[03:21] <fyrestrtr> dcordes: then you can proceed, perhaps the wiki is outdated.
[03:21] <DarkED> HymnToLife: okay... well, all I know is, I basically killed a new hdd because I used gparted to resize an ntfs partition. it filled the disk with bad sectors
[03:22] <HymnToLife> that's weird
[03:22] <fyrestrtr> DarkED: that's a bit ... ermm ... rediculous.
[03:22] <HymnToLife> as I tell you, I've done it countless times and never a single problem
[03:22] <cox377> is there a comand for finding thr free total/free space on hdd;s?
[03:22] <HymnToLife> df
[03:22] <fyrestrtr> df -h
[03:22] <HymnToLife> -h is for n00bz :p
[03:22] <DarkED> fyrestrtr: if a hard drive is nothing but bad sectors, it basically becomes useless, since nothing would work right on it... so, not all that rediculous...
[03:23] <fyrestrtr> DarkED: the part I meant rediculous was that gparted caused 'bad sectors'.
[03:23] <fyrestrtr> because that's a physical problem, not a logical one.
[03:23] <Ayabara> I have a dvd burninig problem. I have made a 4GB encrypted file (truecrypt). When I try to burn it with the default burner or k3b, they just close the disk without burning anything. Any ideas?
[03:23] <DarkED> fyrestrtr: im not saying it CAUSED the bad sectors, im saying there was a problem during the resize, and THAT caused the bad sectors
[03:24] <M1ch43l> hi @ all
[03:24] <fyrestrtr> Ayabara: make an iso out of it first.
[03:24] <david_> huiber1: Message for when you're back - looks like it's fixed. The volumeid package had segfaulted. Installed it separately then reran and it worked. Package manager now happy, so I'll try a reboot...
[03:24] <Ayabara> fyrestrtr, ok. is there a reason why I can't just burn the file?
[03:24] <M1ch43l> who can help me with the following problem : When I try to install/update something, the following message appears :
[03:24] <M1ch43l> There was an error commiting changes. Possibly there was a problem downloading some packages or the commit would break packages.
[03:26] <linux_kid> I just installed server edition on an older pc and after about 2 minutes, i got tired of command line :( what is the command to install gnome in command line?
[03:27] <elkbuntu> linux_kid, sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop
[03:27] <linux_kid> elkbuntu thanks
[03:27] <toomawaayyy> i have amd athlon X2 3800+ socket AM2 and motherboard asus with chipset nforce4. I have download iso for AMD64 architecture. I boot from cd and select install but after have load kernel, there's a black image with ubuntu and the system don't process with the installation (i've have waited half hour)
[03:27] <toomawaayyy> u know why?
[03:28] <tigerman> does it say kernel panic?
[03:28] <DaGame> what's the way ubuntu updates?
[03:28] <M1ch43l> whats wrong with my adept , when telling: There was an error commiting changes. Possibly there was a problem downloading some packages or the commit would break packages.
[03:28] <Ayabara> how (and in which application) can I make a .iso out of the files I want to burn?
[03:28] <toomawaayyy> no, kernel panic say if i install i386 architect
[03:28] <DaGame> I'm used to gentoo, no versions, everything just updates seperately starting at the bottom.
[03:28] <DaGame> Can ubuntu do this?
[03:29] <defrysk> DaGame, only with dist-upgrades
[03:29] <DaGame> whats dist-upgrades?
[03:29] <defrysk> from one release ti the next
[03:29] <tigerman> toomawaayyy: ive had the same kinda problem a couple of times.. once it was fixed by disconnecting a hdd
[03:29] <defrysk> to*
[03:30] <linux_kid> DeGame: package getting is the easiest part of ubuntu...
[03:30] <tigerman> the other time i removed a hdd from a "drawer" mount thing..
[03:30] <dcordes> fyrestrtr: how can i confirm if my restricted modules are installed?
[03:30] <tigerman> other than that.. no idea
[03:30] <r00t_> i need help with Cairo-Clock.when i load it. its just showing me white screen
[03:30] <whyameye_> does anybody have LVM on top of RAID working for, say, their home directory? I can't get this working. I've been trying the alternate installer CD then I've been trying to set up the partitions etc. in the LiveCD for the alternate install to recognize. So far no dice....
[03:31] <r00t_> i need help with Cairo-Clock.when i load it. its just showing me white screen
[03:31] <r00t_> any idea ?
[03:32] <hastesaver> DaGame, although of course, all bug fixes and security fixes will get updated daily (or as frequently as they come)
[03:33] <defrysk> DaGame, also compare gentoo current with ubuntu-edgy in distrowatch.com, you'll see that ubuntu is not behind gentoo at all
[03:33] <st3f_> hi all.
[03:34] <davor> st3f_ hello
[03:34] <st3f_> can anyone tell me if it is possible to have a gdesklet always on top?
[03:34] <sysrage> i've followed all the guides ppl keep linking in here but i still can't get wmv's to play :(
[03:34] <DaGame> defrysk, but when the next ubuntu version comes out... what do I do then?
[03:34] <defrysk> DaGame, dist-upgrade or fresh install
[03:34] <orphen> #ubuntu-fr
[03:35] <dcordes> how can i confirm that my restricted modules are installed and loaded?
[03:35] <defrysk> DaGame, fresh install is usually best just make sure to back up
[03:35] <defrysk> DaGame, and if you make a seperate /home you can backup all there :)
[03:36] <defrysk> DaGame, backing up and fresh install takes less time then compiling firefox
[03:36] <DaGame> What about all the apps and settings?
[03:36] <DaGame> How does it know which apps to install?
[03:37] <hastesaver> DaGame, no, you *don't* have to do a fresh install!
[03:37] <hastesaver> DaGame, you can just upgrade, and everything will work. Or at least, it ought to :-)
[03:37] <defrysk> DaGame, default settings are usually fine default install you can choose between kde gnome or xfce4 kubuntu , ubuntu, or xubuntu
[03:38] <hastesaver> defrysk, stop making it look like one has to lose one's settings every six months! :p
[03:38] <DaGame> what about all the apps I've installed after the OS.. how will it know which ones to download + install after the new clean install?
[03:39] <defrysk> DaGame, there is a wiki , a help page and this irc channel in case of need
[03:39] <hastesaver> DaGame, no, if you do a clean install it won't. But as I said, you don't have to a clean install. The recommended way is to simply upgrade.
[03:39] <orphen> i have a problem
[03:39] <orphen> do you know how i can read XML 4.0 in ubuntu?
[03:39] <DaGame> firefox, orphean ?
[03:40] <defrysk> DaGame, just try ubuntu on a seperate partition first to test it and see if you like it and get the hang of it
[03:40] <orphen> i have isntallle internet exploreur IEs 4 Linux
[03:40] <orphen> because i need it
[03:40] <r00t_> i need help with Cairo-Clock.when i load it. its just showing me white screen
[03:40] <r00t_> orion2012,  with xml reader
[03:40] <defrysk> DaGame, if you can run gentoo ubuntu should be a breeze
[03:40] <Ayabara> found out how to make an iso, but can someone tell me why I can't burn a 4GB file directly?
[03:40] <r00t_> oops sorry orion2012
[03:40] <r00t_> orphean, you can use firefox to read xml
[03:40] <hastesaver> r00t_, wrong person again :-)
[03:40] <orphen> it is for tranding
[03:41] <orphen> trading
[03:41] <DaGame> Ayabara, because CDs are stored in an iso format.. there are some programs that can convert to iso and burn at the same time but that's just 1 program doing 2 steps which can also be done with 2 seperate programs :P
[03:42] <orphen> i will try
[03:42] <r00t_> lol hastesaver
[03:42] <DevC> ok, million dollar question.......what do I need to install to have KDE on Ubuntu?
[03:42] <hastesaver> DevC, the package kubuntu-desktop
[03:42] <HymnToLife> depends of what you want of KDE
[03:42] <r00t_> orphean,, google : xml 4 reader for ubuntu
[03:42] <defrysk> !info kubuntu-desktop
[03:42] <ubotu> kubuntu-desktop: Kubuntu desktop system. In component main, is optional. Version 1.22 (edgy), package size 13 kB, installed size 40 kB
[03:42] <r00t_> hastesaver,  :P yeah
[03:42] <DevC> oh ok :)
[03:42] <HymnToLife> kde-core <= just essential KDE suff
[03:42] <hastesaver> DevC, kubuntu-desktop is quite a lot, actually... you might be able to do with much less :-)
[03:43] <HymnToLife> kubuntu-desktop <= default Kubuntu install
[03:43] <HymnToLife> kde <= full KDE
[03:43] <hastesaver> Ayabara, what do you mean you can't burn it directly? There are lots of programs that can burn it directly
[03:43] <Ayabara> DaGame, but it works to burn smaller files without making a iso first. why is it different with larger files?
[03:43] <Bambi21> Hi...I was wondering if anyone could tell me how to get my ubuntu server to respond with a text string when pinged?
[03:43] <hastesaver> Ayabara, you can write on the fly, of course. k3b has this, at least
[03:43] <stoorty> hello what is the default password for the root account when installin from the live cd?
[03:43] <hastesaver> !root
[03:43] <ubotu> sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for all information.
[03:43] <HymnToLife> there is none
[03:43] <dcordes> how can i remove a user?
[03:43] <defrysk> stoorty, just enter
[03:43] <Ayabara> hastesaver, I tried to burn a 4GB file with both the default burner and k3b, but they just closed the dvd without writing anything..
[03:43] <linxeh> Bambi21: how do you mean? respond on the console? or ?
[03:44] <HymnToLife> sudo -i   will get you a root terminal without asking for a password
[03:44] <hastesaver> dcordes, go to System->Administration->Users and groups
[03:44] <stoorty> thanks defrysk
[03:44] <saladin> i am trying to boot live cd ( edgy) and i get this error : "/bin/sh: cant access tty : job control turned off"  .i goodled this error ,but it cannot find a common solution . any ideas out there
[03:44] <dcordes> hastesaver
[03:44] <r00t_> HymnToLife,  doesnt work :)
[03:44] <dcordes> command?
[03:44] <DevC> HymnToLife: pardon my stupidity but what is the difference between kubuntu-desktop and kde?
[03:44] <hastesaver> Ayabara, I don't have a DVD burner, but at least for CDs I can burn directly with k3b. I don't see why it should be different with DVDs...
[03:45] <HymnToLife> DevC, kubuntu-desktop will install the same thing as a default Kubuntu install
[03:45] <hastesaver> dcordes, userdel , IIRC
[03:45] <HymnToLife> kde will install full KDE
[03:45] <Bambi21> no, I mean when I ping my server I want it to send along with the respons a string that says something like "Its me!"...something like that....doesnt have to be with the ping, jus to the machine that pinged it.
[03:45] <Ayabara> hastesaver, I can't see why it shouldn't work either :-/ , k3b said something about files larger than 2GB and activated a UDF plugin or something.
[03:45] <HymnToLife> which has a lot of extra stuff compared to kubuntu-dektop
[03:46] <beerockxs> I'm having a weird problem, whenever I install a new kernel, the entry in grub points to a non-existing harddisk, hd(1,0)
[03:46] <frogzoo> Bambi21: probly google 'port knocking'
[03:46] <hastesaver> HymnToLife, you mean the other way round, right?
[03:46] <hastesaver> Ayabara, it's probably a setting somewhere. Anyway, I shouldn't speak about this because I don't know about dvd burning :-)
[03:46] <beerockxs> I think it's because I had 2 HDDs installed when I installed Ubuntu first.
[03:46] <HymnToLife> beerockxs, edit the automagic kernel options in /boot/grum/menu.lst
[03:46] <linxeh> Bambi21: I guess you need something with iptables then, and to trigger an external command when yo uget a ping. I dont understand why you would want to do such a thing though
[03:46] <Bambi21> I will try prot knocking
[03:46] <hastesaver> HymnToLife, kubuntu-desktop = kde + (lots of KDE apps)
[03:46] <hastesaver> HymnToLife, right?
[03:46] <Ayabara> hastesaver, :-) , thanks for your help
[03:46] <HymnToLife> hastesaver, nope :p
[03:47] <linxeh> Bambi21: and what is the remote machine meant to do with the string ?
[03:47] <RawSewage> what filesystem does Windows use
[03:47] <defrysk> Ayabara, growisofs -Z /dev/dvd /path/to/folder/
[03:47] <hastesaver> HymnToLife, really? could you clarify?
[03:47] <HymnToLife> hmm, well
[03:47] <linxeh> RawSewage: depends - FAT16, FAT32, NTFS
[03:47] <HymnToLife> kde is a metapackage that installs all the package of the standard KDE distribution
[03:47] <RawSewage> linxeh, XP standrad
[03:47] <HymnToLife> the same you find in Debian for ex.
[03:48] <RawSewage> linxeh, the most common for XP
[03:48] <HymnToLife> and kubuntu-desktop is a Kubuntu specific meta
[03:48] <linxeh> RawSewage: depending on the version of windows. Windows XP uses NTFS by default, but some prebuilt machines have it on FAT32
[03:48] <tvnz> hi
[03:48] <RawSewage> linxeh, tyvm
[03:48] <beerockxs> thanks HymnToLife
[03:48] <linxeh> RawSewage: on linux you should try mounting as vfat or ntfs
[03:48] <HymnToLife> will instal also Kubuntu-related stuff (artwork and such)
[03:48] <tvnz> how to make beryl-xgl start whit gnome?
[03:48] <RawSewage> linxeh, ok
[03:48] <linxeh> RawSewage: you may need to modprobe the ntfs driver
[03:48] <Ayabara> defrysk, thanks. found "mkisofs -r -o file.iso /location_of_folder/" in the wiki. each will work I guess
[03:48] <hastesaver> HymnToLife, hmm... right. I just saw that kde is a *huge* metapackage; I thought it would just install the core libs or something :-)
[03:48] <RawSewage> Im just making a small partition with gparted so I can install Windows and play Second Life
[03:49] <defrysk> Ayabara, -R indeed
[03:49] <defrysk> -r that is
[03:49] <HymnToLife> nope, to install just the KDE core stuff it's kde-core
[03:49] <defrysk> forgot to mention that flag
[03:49] <defrysk> Ayabara, growisofs -Z /dev/dvd -R -J /path/to/files
[03:49] <hastesaver> tvnz, try asking in #ubuntu-xgl
[03:49] <DevC> now I'm debating between kde or the kubuntu install.....does either one come with kdevelop? I know a lot of linux OSes sometimes drop out Kdevelop with KDE
[03:49] <HymnToLife> then you have kde-games, kde-graphics, kde-multimedia, kde-extras...
[03:49] <HymnToLife> and kde installs al of them
[03:49] <defrysk> Ayabara, no iso is made then
[03:49] <HymnToLife> all*
[03:50] <defrysk> Ayabara, and with a rewritable it wil be automatically ereased first
[03:50] <hastesaver> HymnToLife, yes... but kubuntu-desktop also installs a lot of KDE games, graphics and multimedia apps etc... so I got confused :-)
[03:50] <HymnToLife> DevC, you could always install kdevelop later
[03:50] <Bambi21> linxeh: I would want to do this because I have server setup that changes IP's all the time, but the IP's are all in a certain range and I want to try out all the IP's and find my server by looking for the right respons to a ping. If you could suggest any better way I would be glad to give that a try:).
[03:50] <Ayabara> defrysk, thanks :-)
[03:51] <DevC> ok I'll just do the kubuntu install Cause I like going between KDE and Gnome depending on my mood
[03:51] <HymnToLife> hastesaver, kubuntu-desktop is something like a selection, the Kubuntu developpers put in there what they thought would be nice on a basic KDE destop, to fit in one CD
[03:51] <defrysk> Ayabara, good read : http://linuxcommand.org/man_pages/growisofs1.html
[03:51] <DevC> unless the kubuntu install removes Gnome :o
[03:51] <hastesaver> HymnToLife, yes, I understand now. Thanks
[03:51] <jrib> DevC: nope
[03:51] <defrysk> DevC, nope
[03:51] <defrysk> it just adds
[03:51] <HymnToLife> plus all the Kubuntu-specific stuff like splash screen , KDM theme and so on which is not in the standard KDE
[03:51] <hastesaver> DevC, it won't remove anything. Go ahead.
[03:53] <klerfayt> what do commands "laptop-detect" and "laptop_mode" ?
[03:53] <Bambi21> Does anyone have a better idea of how I could do what I ask for in my last post?? I'll give anything a try :).
[03:54] <whyameye_> from a LiveCD how would I mount my RAID1 disk array?
[03:54] <gu014> why am i unable to use dvdshrink on some dvds in ubuntu...then if i try in windows(vmware) with anydvd running i am unable to use dvd shrink on the same disc....i have libdvdcss2 installed..any suggestions?
[03:54] <saladin> i am trying to boot live cd ( edgy) and i get this error : "/bin/sh: cant access tty : job control turned off"  .i goodled this error ,but it cannot find a common solution . any ideas out there
[03:55] <DevC> ok :)

[03:57] <hume> do I need to configure networkmanager (i run the kde frontend, knetworkamanager) to make it automatically connect to a wireless network on log in, or is it supposed to do this by default?
[03:57] <faux> is edgy able to resume from a swap file?
[03:58] <DevC> brb after Kubuntu install
[03:58] <rsl> How do you get restore the default "Open with..." settings for a filetype?
[03:59] <hastesaver> How do I change the format of GNOME's clock to something else? (It says "Sat Dec  2")
[03:59] <rsl> Hey, look! It's localhost!
[03:59] <Ayabara> defrysk, looks good. growisofs -Z /dev/dvd -R -J /path/to/files
[03:59] <Ayabara> growisofs -M /dev/dvd=/dev/zero
[03:59] <Ayabara>  should do what I want? first burn the stuff and then close the dvd
[04:00] <frogzoo> hastesaver: right click
[04:00] <james296> is it at all possible to rename the Applications Places and System menus?
[04:00] <saladin> i am trying to boot live cd ( edgy) and i get this error : "/bin/sh: cant access tty : job control turned off"  .i goodled this error ,but it cannot find a common solution . any ideas out there
[04:01] <defrysk> Ayabara, -M leaves the option open to add more later
[04:01] <frogzoo> james296: Alacarte menu editor
[04:01] <hastesaver> frogzoo, doesn't work. There's no option there for date format, only for time format
[04:01] <ProN00b> saladin, your cd is prolly corrupt, did you burn it yourself ?
[04:02] <saladin> ProN00b: i can boot the cd from laptop with no problems.
[04:02] <frogzoo> hastesaver: my bad, soz dunno
[04:02] <ProN00b> could be scratched maybe, saladin ?
[04:03] <beerockxs> Anyone know why Suspend To Ram would not work correctly on a nforce5 mobo?
[04:04] <Ayabara> defrysk, from the man pages it seems you can append with -M to a disk where you initially burned with -Z
[04:04] <zzsimonb> I am trying to load ubuntu on some laptops, they have no cd, so i am using root-boot and then trying to net install
[04:05] <zzsimonb> it get to running debootstrap --arch etc etc and it resolves dependencies and then just returns to the # prompt
[04:05] <defrysk> Ayabara, not sure about that
[04:05] <stoorty> how can i change the root account to ahve a psssword?
[04:05] <Ayabara> defrysk, I'll figure it out. thanks for helping
[04:05] <defrysk> Ayabara, good luck with it
[04:05] <defrysk> growisofs has great powers :)
[04:06] <Ayabara> :-)

[04:10] <Tolo> Hello, I'm new here, I have a question, I want to install xubuntu, and I must choose between version 6.10, and 6.0.6, which one is more reliable and faster? what's the difference between those two versions?
[04:10] <hastesaver> Tolo, the version numbers are actually dates.
[04:10] <Jellow> hi folks
[04:10] <frogzoo> Tolo: they're both supported 6.10 is more recent & will boot faster
[04:10] <hastesaver> Tolo, 6.06 is the 2006 June version and 6.10 is the 2006 October version.
[04:11] <dcordes> i have a problem with pure_ftpd. i added a user as explained in this guide: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/PureFTP. but when i try to test it using "ftp localhost" i can't login: 530 Login authentication. the user is not shown in pureadmin wich makes me suspect that the user isn't there. how can i fix this?
[04:11] <Jellow> can anyone help me with xchat charsets?
[04:11] <hastesaver> Tolo, so the latter has more features and is faster. They're both reliable
[04:11] <JJRR123Jamesrose> Where is the host name file in windows?
[04:11] <M3G4crux> hi to all
[04:11] <Tolo> I've heard that many ppl have problems with Edgy eft, so that I ask :P
[04:11] <Tolo> o thx
[04:11] <Tolo> ok thx*
[04:12] <M3G4crux> I get a message saying cp: cannot stat
[04:12] <M3G4crux> is this a problem with cp?
[04:12] <hastesaver> Tolo, some people had problems *upgrading* from Dapper. I don't think many people have had problems with a fresh install.
[04:12] <hastesaver> M3G4crux, no, it probably means that the file doesn't exist or something
[04:13] <Tolo> hastesaver, ok thx for the info
[04:13] <GreyGhost> i've heard some ppl are not "happy" with 6.10 ...i want to upgfrade my 6.06 to 6.10 (loved 6.06 .... and i plan on doing a clean install .....) is it suggested that i go ahead with my plan?
[04:13] <whyameye_> if something is already mounted, is there a way to tell *where* it is mounted?
[04:13] <Jellow> i former used Suse and there i had an xchat charset called "IRC (Latin-1/UTF-8 Hybrid)" but now under Edgy this charset seem not to exist. Now I got problems with the German special chars (umlaut). Cann anybody help me to find a way to get this charset under edgy xchat?
[04:14] <M3G4crux> ok hastesaver I am going to try something else. thanks
[04:14] <Ayabara> defrysk, growisofs didn't do the trick either. it seems the 4GB file is too big, though I don't understand what it is too big for...
[04:14] <Tank> Hey, I have some problem with Ubuntu 6.10.. I'm trying to install it from the Live CD-thingy, but when I choose one of my partitions as / and press next, it says that there was no root file system selected? :/
[04:14] <frogzoo> GreyGhost: I'm facing the same dillema - 6.06 is LTS & 6.10 isn't - also, I'm happy with dapper so can't see the case to upgrade for my needs atm
[04:14] <hastesaver> GreyGhost, yes, go ahead. Edgy is not very different from 6.06 to be honest... but it's faster and has newer version of programs. (Some people had problems upgrading... although it shouldn't happen, you might consider doing a fresh install if you want to upgrade)
[04:14] <frogzoo> GreyGhost: it's not actually compulsory to upgrade every 6 months
[04:15] <hastesaver> frogzoo, I upgraded to edgy only a couple of hours ago :-)

[04:16] <frogzoo> hastesaver: yeh, I'm thinking about it, but don't relish reinstalling everything

[04:18] <Jellow> I have a problem with my xchat charsets and I need help plz. I former used Suse and there i had an xchat charset called "IRC (Latin-1/UTF-8 Hybrid)" but now under Edgy this charset seem not to exist. Now I got problems with the German special chars (umlaut). Cann anybody help me to find a way to get this charset under edgy xchat?
[04:18] <hastesaver> frogzoo, I retained my /home, though. So all my settings are still here. All the required reinstallation should be done in one night, I estimate (with my SLOW connection)
[04:18] <whyameye_> trying to mount raid1 in LiveCD...device already mounted or <mount-point> busy. Neither is the case.
[04:19] <John_poot> newbie to chat here- is the 'correct' place to moan/ask about USB delays on boot?
[04:19] <stojance> How do I install the nVidia beta drivers that might replace Xgl and AIGLX on dapper?
[04:19] <Aldoliel> John_poot, moan away
[04:20] <John_poot> Seeems to me that there is a hitch in USB recognition during the boot process - like about 30 seconds worth at times
[04:20] <sceo> how does someone install previous versions of software?  example: I upgraded to edgy, and I want to install MythTV.  However, the current version in the ubuntu repositories is myth 0.20, but I need myth 0.19.  I have a repo setup that has 0.19 I believe, but synaptic shows me only some 0.19 versions, ones that aren't usurped by .20 version in the ubuntu repo.
[04:21] <Aldoliel> Also, does anybody know how to get printing to a windows shared printer to work properly
[04:21] <no_gatez_fan> John_poot/ did the hardware run ok before
[04:21] <frogzoo> hastesaver: sure, and I don't know why the installer doesn't default to /home on a separate partition
[04:21] <Dheeraj_k> is it beneficial to compile and install latest version of kernel over preinstalled  kernel?
[04:22] <Aldoliel> Dheeraj_k, depends on your circumstances, whether you really need the latest kernel, optimisations, etc.
[04:22] <desaparecidoo> HI
[04:22] <frogzoo> Aldoliel: admin -> printing -> add printer
[04:22] <Aldoliel> Hello
[04:22] <John_poot> Yup - Edgy and a few changes - to wit, a new mouse and keyboard - both USB, but the originals were USB handled quite well by Dapper.
[04:22] <desaparecidoo> I have to install ubuntu over Toshiba satellite
[04:22] <dcordes> when i login with my root account it works fine. but with the added user it won't work
[04:23] <desaparecidoo> Any problems on this notebook?
[04:23] <dter> how do I delete a package including dependencies?
[04:23] <dter> like 'kdebase'
[04:23] <desaparecidoo> or some How to?
[04:23] <Tank> Can anyone see how this can happen? http://img350.imageshack.us/img350/1396/ubuntuprobsxf8.png
[04:23] <Aldoliel> frogzoo, I've done that, it's just that whenever I print to the shared printer, it never actually prints, just seems to sit in the queue on the windows box
[04:23] <Tank> I have chosen a partition as / but it tells me I didn't :/
[04:23] <hastesaver> dter, apt-get autoremove , I think. I'm not sure
[04:23] <dter> hold on
[04:23] <Aldoliel> desaparecidoo, Don't see why there would be, more details might help though
[04:24] <sceo> tank: I think / needs to be on a primary, not a logical
[04:24] <derFlo> how can i burn a xvid movie to a dvd that every standard dvd player can play it?
[04:24] <dter> doesnt work =[
[04:24] <whyameye_> dapper LiveCD: raid1 is active according to dmesg but it doesn't appear to be mounted and I can't seem to mount it.
[04:25] <dcordes> i would really appreaciate it if somebody could scroll up and check for my pure_ftp user problem
[04:25] <frogzoo> Aldoliel: have you tried the jet direct protocol ?
[04:25] <stojance> Can someone help?
[04:25] <stojance> !nvidia
[04:25] <Tank> sceo: Thanks, can i make it primary instead of logical in any way?

[04:25] <Aldoliel> frogzoo, What is that?

[04:26] <derFlo> how can i burn a xvid movie to a dvd that every standard dvd player can play it?
[04:26] <sceo> tank: during the partitioning process you'll need to do that; also, I think you're limited to 4 primary partitions
[04:27] <Aldoliel> Thanks, I'll look into it
[04:27] <stojance> !nvidia beta
[04:27] <frogzoo> sceo: best to use one of the primaries as an extended partition
[04:27] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about nvidia beta - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[04:28] <hastesaver> derFlo, I don't know, because I've never tried it, but there is a KDE app called qdvdauthor that looked promising.
[04:28] <derFlo> hastesaver, thanks for the tip
[04:29] <zspada15> anyone familiar with aligning print cartgriges with lexmarks?
[04:29] <gavin_> I'm trying to install menumaker, and the website just says "/configure; make; make install sequence", can anyone explain what it means by that?
[04:29] <Tank> sceo: Okay, thanks for helping, I'll try to figure it out :)
[04:29] <zylche> do ./configure in the directory
[04:30] <gavin_> ok, i got that far
[04:30] <Aldoliel> Hmmm... I don't think I can  use JetDirect, I'm using windows to share the printer....
[04:30] <zylche> then make
[04:30] <zylche> then make install sequence
[04:30] <zylche> it's the order of commands
[04:30] <gavin_> yes, but make doesn't find anything
[04:30] <hastesaver> gavin_, wait, what is menu maker, and why isn't there an equivalent in the repos? :-)
[04:30] <zspada15> i really need to align this cartigdes
[04:30] <zylche> hm..
[04:30] <Aldoliel> zspada15, Isn't there an option to do it from the front panel?
[04:31] <gavin_> hastesaver: I'm not sure why, its for editing the debian menu system.
[04:31] <gavin_> hastesaver: i.e. with fluxbox.
[04:31] <NET||abuse> hey guys, anyone know about amd64 flash availability at all??
[04:31] <zspada15> Aldoliel, yes, but i dont know exactly how to alight without printing too many pages
[04:31] <hastesaver> gavin_, doesn't Alacarte work?
[04:32] <slipttees> j #ubuntu-b
[04:32] <slipttees> hello
[04:32] <Nazcafan> s/j/\/j
[04:32] <gavin_> hastesaver: it very well could, I was told to look at menumaker, that's all.
[04:32] <Aldoliel> zspada15, Doesn't it do it automatically, it should only use two pages or thereabouts
[04:32] <slipttees> writer on partition hfs+ of Mac OS X 10.4.8?
[04:32] <hastesaver> gavin_, try alacarte menu editor. it's in the repos; easier and safer to install it
[04:33] <gavin_> hastesaver: its for gnome
[04:33] <kinematix> hi guys, did anyone here managed to have xgl working?
[04:33] <gavin_> hastesaver: im using fluxbox
[04:33] <slipttees> it's me???
[04:33] <zspada15> Aldoliel, but i dont know how/what to print
[04:33] <Aldoliel> Oh, right...
[04:33] <hastesaver> gavin_, oh, sorry :-) (For a moment, I forgot that fluxbox was a WM and thought it was a media player or something :-))
[04:33] <Aldoliel> What model is it?
[04:34] <fenrig> hi
[04:34] <zspada15> Aldoliel, Lexmark Z22
[04:34] <gavin_> hastesaver: lol. I'm sure someody would be offended by that ;  P.
[04:34] <slipttees> please, somebody could help me to write in partition HFS+?
[04:34] <fenrig> what is the alternative cd
[04:34] <fenrig> ?

[04:35] <ubotu> To view your Windows/Mac partitions see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AutomaticallyMountPartitions  -  See also !fuse

[04:35] <zspada15> !fuse
[04:35] <ubotu> Though it's still very unsafe, you can read about Ubuntu NTFS writing here: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Lkraider/NtfsFuse
[04:36] <fenrig> can i ask something
[04:36] <fenrig> what for is the alternative ubuntu cd for?
[04:36] <slipttees> zspada15: help me man!
[04:36] <zspada15> slipttees, read the linnk
[04:36] <gavin_> zylche: there is a generic install readme that says I should type "make install", and that compiles some things but it doesn't appear to do what im expecting it to do
[04:36] <hastesaver> fenrig, that's to use if the usual one doesn't work
[04:36] <Aldoliel> fenrig, It's for text mode and server installs...
[04:37] <hastesaver> fenrig, for systems with low RAM, etc.
[04:37] <slipttees> zspada15: already I made everything this and it did not advance!
[04:37] <fenrig> ah
[04:37] <fenrig> so if i have a system with 128ram
[04:37] <John_poot> Error from syslog: Dec  3 00:23:04 SAMBO kernel: [17179599.780000]  usb 6-3: device descriptor read/64, error -110, That device is:
[04:37] <fenrig> i would better use the alternative?
[04:37] <zspada15> slipttees, i dont know how to help u
[04:37] <ryanakca> is there a command to output information about your soundcard? lspci gives me the basic stuff, but not enough...
[04:37] <slipttees> :(
[04:38] <slipttees> somebody?
[04:38] <hastesaver> fenrig, I guess so, yes. But are you even sure Ubuntu will run well after installation? (I think it should, but not sure)
[04:38] <fenrig> does anyone
[04:38] <fenrig> knows a distro that is for weak pc's
[04:38] <slipttees> j #mac
[04:38] <fenrig> and looks like ubuntu
[04:38] <fenrig> ?
[04:38] <zspada15> fenrig, ubuntu
[04:38] <zspada15> fenrig, possibly debian
[04:39] <kinematix> is it possible to have the volume control in the upper bar to map to 2 device tracks? I can only point to one and it happens my ICE based chip has distinctive track controls for DAC Left and Right
[04:39] <Reolosi> Will Ubuntu run okay on my older machine -- a P3 with 128MBytes of RAM?
[04:39] <zspada15> Reolosi, it will run awesomely
[04:39] <Reolosi> Really? Even the current release?
[04:39] <huiber1> fenrig: look untu xubuntu
[04:39] <huiber1> !xubuntu
[04:39] <ubotu> Xubuntu is Ubuntu with Xfce instead of Gnome. For more info, see http://www.xubuntu.org - To install from Ubuntu: "sudo apt-get install xubuntu-desktop"
[04:39] <zspada15> Reolosi, it runs on my p2 350 mhz, with only 256 megs of ram
[04:39] <zspada15> edgy
[04:39] <hastesaver> Reolosi, newer releases are being optimised more, AFAICT :-)
[04:40] <slipttees> aaarrrgggg :@
[04:40] <Aldoliel> Reolosi, you'd be better with xubuntu considering the amount of ram
[04:40] <slipttees> :(
[04:40] <stro> hi
[04:40] <Reolosi> Why is Xubuntu better for weak systems?
[04:40] <hastesaver> fenrig, you can use Ubuntu. Try it and see. If it is very slow, you can still use Ubuntu, but something other than GNOME (like XFCE (xubuntu) or something)
[04:40] <Fortis> can I run KDE apps under GNOME?
[04:40] <hastesaver> Fortis, yes
[04:40] <zspada15> Aldoliel, how about my printer?
[04:40] <stro> anybody got the intel high definition audio running on edgy? it's also called 82801G
[04:40] <Fortis> ok
[04:41] <hastesaver> Reolosi, because XFCE requires less resources? But this is a circular answer... the only answer is "because." :-)
[04:41] <fenrig> and uhm
[04:41] <stro> another problem ... when i use compiz, the active window dashes off to another virtual screen as soon as i press 'Alt'
[04:41] <fenrig> what are the recommends
[04:41] <fenrig> of ubuntu?
[04:41] <zspada15> Reolosi, XFCE is affectionately known as the cholesterol free environment
[04:42] <pecisk> which package contains Caplets in System => Preferences and Administration?
[04:42] <John_poot> Yeah, well - 4 years since I infested IRC....  the device is 006:001, supposedly connected to nothing.
[04:42] <Aldoliel> zspada15, I'm still looking, give me a sec
[04:42] <hastesaver> fenrig, what do you mean?
[04:42] <fenrig> when does
[04:43] <fenrig> no
[04:43] <fenrig> with what amount of take ram does ubuntu feels comfortable using
[04:43] <Reolosi> Well, thanks hastesaver and aldoliel, downloading the newest Xubuntu now... hopefully it works on my machine, the last 2 distros I tried didn't
[04:44] <huiber1> fenrig: >256
[04:44] <fenrig> ah
[04:44] <Aldoliel> Reolosi, Good luck!
[04:44] <fenrig> and gpu?
[04:44] <klees> does anyone know if there's a bug setting system sounds under System->Preferences->Sound ??

[04:49] <r7^black> i just installed ubuntu x64, but it does the loading screen bit, then just displays a static underscore (_) in the top left of the screen. when i hit enter it plays bongos sound? help me
[04:49] <klees> davor: i'll check that.  the funny thing is i can play any sound i select for an event but when the event occurs it doesn't play the sound
[04:49] <r7^black> please :(
[04:49] <purnima> Well i would like to know about Ubiquity
[04:50] <noob001> how to get wpa working with madwifi on edgy please
[04:50] <huiber1> r7^black: it looks like your diplay/monitor is not able to display X, but X is up and running
[04:50] <A3n> iwconfig eth2 (my card) gives Access Point: Invalid, what do i have to do to make my internet work?
[04:50] <huiber1> noob001: it depends heavily on your wifi card
[04:50] <r7^black> what dus tht mean?
[04:50] <davor> klees yeah, i think what you need to find out first is exactly where the problem occurs. is it that it tries to play the sound and that it doesn't work, or is it having trouble sensing the event. it might even be that the configuration program actually isn't writing what you want it to, to the conf-file.
[04:50] <A3n> i installed ndiswrapper and the drivers using ndiswrapper -i driver.inf
[04:50] <noob001> wpa madwifi edgy
[04:51] <whyameye> cramfs: wrong magic --- what sort of error message is this?!?
[04:51] <huiber1> r7^black : you might try selecting another resolution in your xorg.conf
[04:51] <klees> davor: correct but that's where my limited knowledge halts =(
[04:51] <davor> try to do something where you want to hear a sound, and then check which log-files have been changed (ls -la)
[04:51] <noob001> me wants wpa!! lol come on can't anyone help?
[04:51] <r7^black> y i cant doanything tho
[04:51] <huiber1> noob001: no, I don't do wpa, it's a free country :-)
[04:52] <r7^black> iload up as in it shows grey scale ubunto logo and loading bar, then prettymuch crashed
[04:52] <davor> do what you want to do, then "ls -l /var/log". if one of those files has a change-date that matches when you did that, then check it
[04:52] <noob001> well F* your country
[04:52] <adz21c> hey, I am running Edgy 6.10 amd64. When I first log in to KDE (yes it is Kubuntu I am running but I have a lack of response in #kubuntu and I am not sure if it is KDE specific or just a general graphics problem) all my colours look like they are on a low setting (like 256 colors to 16bit area), however soon as I run glxgears everything looks normal (ie 24 bit colors) till I reboot.

[04:54] <davor> klees hmm.. frankly I have no idea. it doesn't sound like a sound-problem, tough. i would guess that it has to do with the conf-file.
