[12:23] <thedash> hey guys, I lost power, and now I have no sound, any suggestions ?
[12:24] <fujin_> is there a way to change what the 'volume control' media keys actually control?
[12:24] <nickrud> thedash, turn on the power?
[12:24] <fujin_> or how to specifically disable my onboard audio
[12:24] <nickrud> fujin_, system-prefs-keyboard shortcuts
[12:24] <scipio> theconartist: one idea here: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=476146&highlight=bad+quality+sound
[12:24] <kwizard> So I take it no one knows anything about Ubuntu servers then?
[12:24] <fujin_> nickrud: that's not what I asked
[12:25] <Shrimpy_> kristofer: its either xserver-xorg-video-i810  or xserver-xorg-video-intel
[12:25] <fujin_> nickrud: I want to change what soundcard it controls. The keys are working
[12:25] <fujin_> they are just controlling the wrong soundcard

[12:25] <Drk_Guy> Apt-get has it=

[12:26] <kitche> Drk_Guy, no it does not have cedega
[12:26] <kristofer> Shrimpy_, yeah I've tried both of those.. it's probably a user error. I'm just trying to solve it though..
[12:26] <Drk_Guy> WineX!!!!, no Cedega!!!
[12:26] <Drk_Guy> >:o
[12:26] <kitche> Drk_Guy, you do know WineX = Cedega
[12:26] <Drk_Guy> WineX is the cool one, Cedega is the lame one
[12:26] <Drk_Guy> WineX is GPL, Cedega isn't
[12:26] <Shrimpy_> kristofer: ok :)
[12:27] <Drk_Guy> But they both have the same stuff ;)
[12:27] <tokj> Drk_Guy: no. winex is the cvs version of cedega, without some features
[12:27] <nickrud> fujin_, ah, try right clicking the volume control, and prefs. You can make some selections there
[12:27] <Drk_Guy> So, i have the URL of the repo
[12:27] <tokj> Drk_Guy: winex IS NOT gpl. is afpl
[12:27] <Drk_Guy> Btu i don't know how to d/l it
[12:27] <Drk_Guy> Wow, thx tokj
[12:27] <BlueSurf> PriceChild: i tried using ndiswrapper and it seems to detect my card but wont let me enable the connection
[12:28] <PriceChild> BlueSurf, I can't help with ndiswrapper, never used it.
[12:28] <PriceChild> BlueSurf, best i can do is direct you to documentation if i know the chipset
[12:28] <kitche> Drk_Guy, checkout the sources for it and compile
[12:28] <Drk_Guy> I have the svn repo, where the sources are, but i don't know how to d/l it the right way
[12:29] <BlueSurf> PriceChild: I cant find out the chipset for this model

[12:32] <T3hMikey> could someone help me get my resolution working right? I tried that stuff on that link from !res, but it's still not working. I edited in the resolution I want to the xorg.conf file, restarted Xserver, and it still won't show up on the screen resolutions preference box
[12:32] <tokj> Drk_Guy: http://www.cedega.com/license.php?source=1 here are the instructions. i can't help you further
[12:32] <abelfaec> I'm looking for a torrent, or a mirror for ubuntu ultimate 1.4 dvd edition. I'm aware it's unsupported, and i don't need help isntalling it or setting it up, however it'd be awesome if someone here had a link, the linuxtracker torrent has a borked tracker on it. and all the mirrors have capped bandwidth usage
 sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[12:33] <jacob_> does anybody know how to launch an mp3 or mpg file?
[12:33] <jacob_> from the terminal
[12:33] <ari_stress> use mpg321
[12:33] <T3hMikey> chuy_max, I did that, and I told it to add my resolution, then restarted Xserver again just in case, and it still won't show up on the list
 depends in the app you want to use, mpg321 plays mp3 from the console
[12:33] <Drk_Guy> tokj: Sorry, but i had that url WAY back
[12:33] <clearzen> Jacob: Do you have a xsession running?
[12:34] <tyler_> Has anyone here managed to actually get a Chaintech AV-710 working? I've been trying desperalty to get it working properly. It seems I can any one of:  Sound to SPDIF, More than one app playing sound at the same time, OSS emulation working, but not more than 1 at the same time. This shouldn't be that hard.
[12:34] <jacob_> chuy_max mpg321 is a program for the terminal?
[12:34] <abelfaec> no one have ubuntu ultimate 1.4 dvd iso sitting around? willing to make a new torrent or something :/
[12:34] <chuy_max> jacob_ yes
[12:34] <macd> tyler_, you could try changing from OSS to alsa
[12:34] <neverblue2> !offtopic | abelfaec
[12:34] <ubotu> abelfaec: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome!
[12:34] <jacob_> Drk_Guy what is xsession?
[12:34] <abelfaec> :/
[12:34] <tyler_> macd: I am using alsa. 7.04 install fresh off the CD
[12:34] <neverblue2> O_o
 in GNOME, System -> Preferences -> Screen resolution
[12:34] <tokj> Drk_Guy: you have to agree the AFPL license so you can read the download instructions
[12:34] <abelfaec> that's not really off topic.
[12:35] <T3hMikey> chuy_max, yes, that's where I've been going to try to change it, but the new resolution refuses to show up there
[12:35] <clearzen> Jacob: xsession is your user interface basically
[12:35] <neverblue2> abedo, really, you want someone else to open a torrent for you, and you feel thats not off topic?
[12:35] <macd> tyler_, well, if you head on over to alsa-project.org they have a pretty good troubleshooting guide along with some scripts that dump enough info to let us better diagnose the problem
[12:35] <neverblue2> abedo, there are lots of sites for downloading ubuntu, your more than happy to use them
[12:36] <abelfaec> i was just asking if anyone had it. It seems fairly ubuntu - applicable.
 if it refuses to be shown, either your driver/video card doesn't support higher resolutions, your monitor doesn't, you didn't configure it right, or I don't know .. :)
[12:36] <jacob_> chuy_max, how do i use mpg321?
[12:36] <jacob_> to launch an mpg
[12:36] <smoenux> O.o ... Process >> Beagled - Helper >> Using 72% + CPU ..!! :( ... How can I stop it ?? what is it doing?
 mpg321 launches mp3, not mpgs, if you want video use mplayer
[12:37] <neverblue2> abelfaec, now your disregarding the fact that you wanted someone to torrent it?
[12:37] <T3hMikey> chuy_max, well, I'm dual booting windows, and this is what I've been using on Windows, so I'm pretty sure it's supported. Last time I tried Ubuntu, it was pretty easy to add the same resolution, but this time, it's being a pain
[12:37] <jacob_> mplayer is a terminal program?
[12:37] <jacob_> command line program
[12:38] <abelfaec> i was asking if anyone had it, neverblue2, and a possible solution i offered up was a torrent, i also asked for links, or any other solution.
[12:38] <neverblue2> jacob_, every application in linux is run via the command line
[12:38] <neverblue2> abelfaec, so your asking me for links?
[12:38] <chuy_max> jacob_ you can launch all apps from the terminal, obviously you can't display a video in the console
[12:38] <neverblue2> jacob_, some open a GUI interface, some do not
[12:38] <David-A> smoenux: probably indexing. it runs nice (low priority) so it dosnt disturb other processes so much.
[12:39] <Drk_Guy> Hey guys, if you want some linux tips and tricks (specially for Ubuntu ;) ) visit my site!
[12:39] <abelfaec> i am not specifically asking anything of you, neverblue2, actually, i don't plan on asking anything of you. I was askign a room populated with abotu 2000 users if anyone knew where to find a file. So no, it was nto directed at you.
[12:39] <neverblue2> jacob_, some ppl recommend opening applications in a command line, as if the program fails, the output from the program will display in the shell, which helps to resolve the issue
[12:39] <Drk_Guy> Pm me for the URL
[12:39] <neverblue2> abedo, good luck :)
[12:39] <clearzen> Jacob: check this out http://polishlinux.org/apps/cli/moc-console-audio-player-for-linux/
[12:40] <David-A> smoenux: ... see "top" PR column
[12:40] <smoenux> thx David-A ... Isn't it bad for the cpu to run like this though ??
[12:40] <smoenux> or will it stop once the indexing is done?
[12:40] <Shrimpy_> i was wondering if somebody could tell me if anybody could teach me how to use aircrack
[12:40] <David-A> smoenux: yes if will stop
[12:40] <smoenux> cools ^_^
[12:41] <smoenux> thats ok then .. :) makes me happy
[12:41] <smoenux> Thanks for the help
[12:41] <David-A> smoenux: using cpu is generally not bad for the cpu (unless the cpu fan is broke)
[12:42] <neverblue2> jacob_, does that help you to understand?
[12:42] <smoenux> ah ok... :P ... I don't know enough on the subject... which is why I was a wee bit worried :P
[12:43] <neverblue2> !offtopic | Shrimpy_

[12:51] <lImItaO> it's possible to keep aspec ratio in ManDVD?
[12:51] <jerryrighter> how do you turn on 3D acceleration
[12:51] <David-A> maxinator: do you mean like logout?
[12:52] <Thirtysixway> My friend was having computer trouble and they were like "can you fix it?" I told them I'd get them a ubuntu disk lol
[12:52] <Sivik> good for u
[12:52] <Thirtysixway> ;x
[12:52] <nickrud> maxinator, if you mean just not drawing the icons on the desktop, run gconf-editor  and untick  /apps/nautilus/preferences/show_desktop
[12:52] <Arrick> !vpn
[12:52] <ubotu> From more information on vpn please refer to https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Gaming_VPN_Using_PPTPD
[12:52] <Thirtysixway> What port does vpn use?
[12:52] <Arrick> 2227 default
[12:53] <Arrick> but you can change it
[12:53] <Thirtysixway> What about vnc?
[12:53] <Thirtysixway> The remote desktop on ubuntu
[12:53] <neverblue> vnc 3389
[12:53] <neverblue> or tahts Remote desktop
[12:53] <ajehuk> 9300 - 9400 rings a bell - Ill check
[12:53] <dane2> ubuntu doesnt want let my laptop run in anything higher than 640x480, how can I fix it :/
[12:54] <maxinato1> /name maxinator
[12:54] <Thirtysixway> Can't you change it in xconfig or something?
[12:54] <Grungebunny> dane get the right video driver?
[12:54] <Arrick> 5900, 6900
[12:54] <Arrick> vnc
[12:54] <neverblue> vnc is 5900
[12:54] <neverblue> thanks Arrick :/
[12:54] <Falstius> on vncserver is generally 590x where x is the display number (1 for the first, 2 for the second, etc)
[12:54] <Arrick> both
[12:54] <Thirtysixway> ok
[12:54] <dane2> Grungebunny: I don think they have one for linux, but why would my laptop need it and my desktop not need it?
[12:54] <ajehuk> knew there was a 9 in it...
[12:55] <Grungebunny> dane did you enable the driver from system>administration>restricted drivers ?
[12:55] <dane2> I tried and it says that my system doesn need any restricted drivers
[12:55] <ajehuk> wierd - my iptables rules show 5800 + 5900 for vnc
[12:56] <neverblue> dane2, that means its enabled :)
[12:56] <Arrick> uhmm, thats correct now that I think about it
[12:56] <Arrick> ajehuk ^
[12:56] <ajehuk> Arrick - yeah it is.
[12:56] <dane2> so why doesnt it work, then?
[12:56] <riotkittie> Anyone well versed in ndiswrapper - I'm using a usb adapter with the prism2 chipset and while there is some degree of support for it, I can't use anything but WEP. if i go the ndiswrapper route, wpa/wpa2 should work ?
[12:57] <riotkittie> I'm thinking about buying another adapter with an ralink chipset but at the same time, i'm not eager to spend money on one
[12:57] <thecross> is there any way to clean up the sound on my laptop?  I get a constant buzzing noise that I can hear when wearing headphones. and when I move the mouse around or type I get a strange interconnection with the sound card
[12:58] <maxinato1> sorry, but my wlan ***** ..... how can i kill the gnome-desktop nautilus --no-dekstop dont work
[12:58] <Falstius> thecross: have you tried turning down the microphone?
[12:58] <riotkittie> thecross - what kind of sound card does your laptop have?
[12:58] <thecross> riotkittie: how do i find out?
[12:59] <thecross> Falstius: Ill just try
[12:59] <Falstius> thecross: mute microphone and line in.  I had that help on one laptop (and it is easy to try)
[12:59] <riotkittie> thecross : yea, its probably the mic; Falstius is a genius :P
[12:59] <ajehuk> riotkittie - I decided that for the added reliablity and since I use quite a bit of wireless kit at home (2 laptops and a handheld) that spending a little extra cash for stabilities sake was worth it - I ended up spending 17total for 3 adapters that just work.  (7 for a dell card for the handheld and 10 for the two pcmcia cards) well worth it
[12:59] <scipio> thecross: i gave you a link earlier but i think i hit the wrong name with tab. did you see that?
[01:00] <thecross> Falstius: nope, made no difference
[01:00] <riotkittie> ajehuk > if i could pick up cards for $3 ... :P
[01:00] <thecross> scipio: nope did not see it
[01:00] <scipio> thecross: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=476146&highlight=bad+quality+sound
[01:00] <ajehuk> riotkittie - ebay? its what I did in the end
[01:00] <scipio> thecross: try what other suggested as well
[01:00] <ajehuk> \lright maybe not $3
[01:01] <ajehuk> whats that these days? 1.50
[01:01] <riotkittie> ajehuk > i've been watching eBay for like two weeks. the adapters i'm looking for, with the chipsets i need are going for about $30
[01:02] <riotkittie> if i was using my laptop full time, i might bite. wait. my laptop has a pcmcia card that works fine with linux :P
[01:02] <Emperorcezar> Any ideas on why nm applet would refuse to change networks? It also never progresses past the connecting animation even though it is fully connected.
[01:02] <ajehuk> riotkittie - thats what I though initially but apart from the dell card (shoulda bought a few of them the local cex store resells them at )) all of mine are unbranded wit a linux compatable chipset...
[01:02] <mjgoins> anyone know why so many packages would show up as coming from 'an untrusted source' if my sources.list only contains lines referring to ubuntu.com sites?
[01:02] <riotkittie> ajehuk > what chipset is it, if you know offhand?
[01:02] <Midnight_Abuse> Hah.
[01:03] <Arrick> hey all, how would one go about making ubuntu server 7.04 into a system that will route (or forward) port 80 calls to different servers inside the network
[01:03] <ajehuk> I dont know off hand - but I can have a quick look....
[01:03] <johnny^B> whats up peeps
[01:04] <dane2> dell should make more drivers linux compatible
[01:04] <AncientRelic> SIS Mirage graphics, anyone know where I can get a decent Linux driver for it?
[01:04] <riotkittie> dane2 > i'm sure that they're getting to it.
[01:04] <ajehuk> riotkittie - ralink but they are some generic german brand
[01:04] <Midnight_Abuse> Yeh heard Dell was gonna make Linux preinstalled.
[01:04] <AncientRelic> Dell is
[01:04] <dane2> theyve had plenty of time though
[01:05] <AlgorthmicContro> Midnight_Abuse: That's really old.
[01:05] <dane2> they put dell on some of their desktops already
[01:05] <ajehuk> riotkittie - dont know what the dell one is but it was listed on one of the familiar sites as compatable
[01:05] <Midnight_Abuse> What, me? :| Oh thanks.
[01:05] <ajehuk> and its quite old
[01:06] <gbw> hello, i have a strange phenomena today, that is in the network manager icon, there is no wireless network option, but i have wireless connection, does anyone know what is the problem?
[01:06] <AlgorthmicContro> Midnight_Abuse: and they already have, the thing is they charge a 100 dollars more just for the manufactures to install it and somehow still preloaded it with Dell shit, they don't want to use profits and money, IE a simple copy of XP Home home on a dell branded computer costs ~$99
[01:06] <riotkittie> ajehuk > ahhh, yea. i'm looking for something with an ralink chipset. i've got a list of usb adapters that contain them, including the generics. but im not having much luck finding anything but d-links and linksyses. i'm sure a new batch will pop up within the next couple of days. perhaps i'll have better luck then :D
[01:06] <thecross> I tried that link you gave me, but it made no difference. I still get a buzzing sound all of the time.
[01:07] <AncientRelic> riotkittie: what about Zydas USB adapters?
[01:07] <ajehuk> riotkittie - I think it is about timing - Oh and I was after pcmcia cards and there seem to be boatloads of them available at any one time.
[01:07] <AncientRelic> mine work perfectly in Feisty
[01:07] <mjgoins> do you need a new gpg key for aptitude after upgrading to a new ubuntu version? All my sources (which are the standard ubuntu repositories) are showing up as untrusted
[01:07] <riotkittie> AncientRelic: do those use the ralink chipsets?
[01:08] <AncientRelic> nope
[01:08] <AncientRelic> Zydas is the chipset
[01:08] <lImItaO> it's possible to keep aspec ratio in ManDVD?
[01:08] <AncientRelic> they're actually Airlink101 cards
[01:08] <ramza3> my sound sometimes doesnt work, can I restart the sounder server to restart and what would the command be?
[01:08] <riotkittie> AncientRelic: oh :o
[01:08] <AncientRelic> riotkittie: cheap Fry's stuff FTW
[01:08] <ajehuk> riotkittie - but I will say that compared to using my previous card with ndiswrapper, these cards are sterling, I can finally listen to music and watch films down stairs without all the cabled hassle... (Oh and I can finally stream music to my handheld whilst Im in the garden - that is really nice...)
[01:09] <riotkittie> AncientRelic: oh yea, Fry's is awesome. i will have to go look around their site
[01:09] <scipio> mjgoins: i don't think so. see !easysource and replace the whole file just to be sure
[01:09] <gbw> can someone give me a shot?
[01:09] <AncientRelic> why can't Intel put up Ubuntu drivers
[01:10] <riotkittie> ajehuk: i need this for a desktop :P  i could solve my problem by just yanking the cable from my La Fonera and killing my hotspot...  :|
[01:10] <AncientRelic> riotkittie: you're trying to get your desktop wireless?
[01:11] <ajehuk> riotkittie - that'd be... elegant....
[01:11] <nickrud> mjgoins, you can try sudo aptitude update ; that may clear the untrusted
[01:11] <thecross> anybody have any other ideas why i get this buzzing sound on my laptop? it seems like it might be related to the display. as anytime there is movement on the display there is a change in pitch
[01:11] <BlueSurf> how do i find out what the chipset is for my linksys wkpc54g wireless-g notebook adapter?
[01:11] <Midnight_Abuse> What are pro/cons about computers?
[01:11] <AncientRelic> BlueSurf: Linksys is probably Broadcom
[01:11] <riotkittie> AncientRelic: my desktop is wireless. in terms of connection.  but i can only get WEP under linux.
[01:11] <mjgoins> !easysource
[01:11] <ubotu> source-o-matic is a webpage where you can (re)generate your sources.list - http://www.ubuntu-nl.org/source-o-matic
[01:11] <nickrud> Midnight_Abuse, pro, they make good anchors after a while
[01:11] <riotkittie> linksys might be ralink. they have a few.
[01:12] <Midnight_Abuse> I need more, and ty.
[01:12] <gbw> ok, i solve it, i check my /etc/network/interfaces and find out there is suddenly a new line auto eth1 appear
[01:12] <BlueSurf> ancientrelic, yeah thats what i think too but my specific card has 4 different versions
[01:12] <riotkittie> BlueSurf > open a term and type "lspci | grep linksys"  without the quotes ... or lspci alone
[01:12] <AncientRelic> Marvell, BlueSurf ?
[01:12] <ward_> had anyone got a speedtouch 510 ? i've wasted several hours and i still dont have a simple port forward
[01:13] <ward_> i really don't know what to do anymore :s
[01:13] <knoppix> how do i listen music in ubuntu?
[01:13] <BlueSurf> Marvell?
[01:13] <AncientRelic> Marvell was bought out by Atheros IIRC
[01:13] <riotkittie> knoppix: music as in music? or music as in mp3?  or some other 'restricted' format?
[01:13] <ward_> knoppix, xmms among other software
[01:13] <knoppix> uh
[01:13] <AncientRelic> ward_: is that a router?
[01:13] <Midnight_Abuse> What other communication tools where built from the 'computer'?
[01:13] <riotkittie> atheros <3
[01:13] <ward_> AncientRelic, its a modem with built in router, yes
[01:14] <riotkittie> mpg321 ftw.
[01:14] <AncientRelic> ward_: DSL huh?
[01:14] <ward_> AncientRelic, yes (dynamic ip)
[01:14] <BlueSurf> AncientRelic, so how would I go about installing my wireless card?
[01:14] <silvertip257> I needed to move partitions, so I deleted my swap and moved it.  How to I recreate a UUID that I can enter in my /etc/fstab config ?
[01:14] <riotkittie> knoppix: what is your issue exactly -  do you not have codecs? or are you lost in terms of software?
[01:14] <knoppix> listence
[01:14] <Midnight_Abuse> Hmm.
[01:14] <AncientRelic> BlueSurf: I presume you tried jsut plugging it in
[01:14] <Falstius> silvertip257: when you ran mkswap it gave you the uuid.  If you didn't write it down, run mkswap again :)
[01:14] <mjgoins> scipio: thanks, that worked
[01:15] <freakyfelt> got a quick question about trying to boot ubuntu on my macbook pro if anyone could help
[01:15] <silvertip257> Falstius:  thanks !
[01:15] <scipio> mjgoins: excellent
[01:15] <cec> Hi I'm having a problem with a slowdown in the time it takes to launch programs--even a terminal takes forever. htop shows cpu and ram usage are minimal. No major changes except updates. Any ideas where I can look. Using 7.04 a Thinkpad x60
[01:15] <riotkittie> knoppix: if you're using the GNOME desktop ... open up the application menu and go to...  sound? media?  im not looking at it so i'm unsure but there are players in there
[01:15] <AncientRelic> ward_: Honestly, best bet is to get a pure DSL modem, chuck the integrated router AT&T locks those suckers tight
[01:15] <knoppix> yes, i'm using
[01:15] <knoppix> very good
[01:15] <AncientRelic> then run out and get a WRT54GL
[01:15] <BlueSurf> AncientRelic, yes of course , and I also tried ndiswrapper
[01:15] <ward_> AncientRelic, i use it as pure ADSL modem, i got a seperate router :-)
[01:15] <knoppix> my english is bad
[01:15] <AncientRelic> OK
[01:16] <silvertip257> Falstius:  so I just need to run "mkswap /dev/xxx" to get the UUID ?
[01:16] <ward_> AncientRelic, DHCP from the modem = OFF
[01:16] <ward_> :-)
[01:16] <riotkittie> brb
[01:16] <ward_> AncientRelic, its jsut that i can't forwards a port with this weird thing
[01:16] <knoppix> bye
[01:17] <freakyfelt> i tried booting from the live cd on my macbook pro and i hit the BusyBox and it came up with an error about not being able to log in to tty, leaving me with an (initramfs) prompt
[01:17] <AncientRelic> ward_: I'm stumped then, honestly when confronted with that integrated crap, I just dug out a modem without a router from my salvage :P
[01:17] <Falstius> silvertip257: you'll need to run swapoff /dev/xxx first, but yes.
[01:17] <silvertip257> ok -- it's off already b/c I destroyed the UUID earlier ;)
[01:17] <nickrud> cec, when I had that problem recently, it was because my hostname wasn't consistent. I edited /etc/hostname to the correct name, edited /etc/hosts so that the hostname appeared after localhost, and ran /etc/init.d/hostname.sh start (sudo is needed for each)
[01:17] <ward_> AncientRelic, i don't have a salvage lol
[01:18] <AncientRelic> ward_: try Craig's List I've seen DSL modems still wrapped floating around in there
[01:18] <Azih> Hey guys, I just installed meld a tool for diffing/merging etc. and I need to run it as sudo so that I can actually merge stuff. How do I do that?
[01:18] <AncientRelic> for like 10-20
[01:18] <ward_> knoppix, what is your regular language? there are also ubuntu channels in other languages
[01:18] <cec> nickrud, thanks funny, just changed my hostname so that has to be it much obliged!
[01:18] <knoppix> Vietnamese
[01:19] <knoppix> but i using english
[01:19] <ward_> AncientRelic, what is Crag's List?
[01:19] <scipio> Azih: i'm guessing here but try "gksudo meld" if it has a gui
[01:19] <AncientRelic> ward: www.craigslist.org
[01:19] <ward_> AncientRelic, thanx
[01:19] <Azih> I think that worked scipio. Thanks.
[01:19] <musikgoat|laptop> ward_: its an internet garage sale of all sorts of things
[01:19] <scipio> Azih: you're welcome
[01:20] <ward_> haha musikgoat|laptop
[01:20] <AncientRelic> musikgoat|laptop: More ebay with out the hassles ;)
[01:20] <ward_> well i'm unemployed, no money for modems when the old one is still working
[01:20] <AncientRelic> ward_: I might be there soon too, so I feel for you
[01:21] <knoppix> ward: where do i can download RPM and DEB packages?
[01:21] <ward_> knoppix, hmmm i don't think there's a vietnamese channel, not sure
[01:21] <AncientRelic> anyone know about video drivers?
[01:21] <knoppix> you can use english
[01:21] <neverblue> AncientRelic, whats that?
[01:22] <ward_> knoppix, i know, but local irc rooms can be handy sometimes
[01:22] <ward_> AncientRelic, nvidia or ati?
[01:22] <knoppix> ward_: uh, thanks
[01:22] <AncientRelic> ward_: SIS
[01:22] <neverblue> AncientRelic, old card?
[01:22] <ward_> AncientRelic, no dunno anytihng about those
[01:22] <AncientRelic> neverblue: brand new mobo
[01:22] <ward_> all nvidia here
[01:22] <neverblue> AncientRelic, waiting for the question....
[01:23] <thecross> so nobody has any other ideas on how I can get this buzzing sound to stop on my laptop?
[01:23] <ward_> does anyone know how to port forward a SpeedTouch 510 ?
[01:23] <AncientRelic> neverblue: well Intel has Linux drivers on their site for it, but they're for SUSE, Fedora, and Mandrive
[01:23] <AncientRelic> Mandriva
[01:23] <musikgoat|laptop> ward_: portforward.com
[01:23] <AncientRelic> aka RPMs
[01:23] <neverblue> AncientRelic, and?
[01:23] <AncientRelic> Any way to use those with Linux?
[01:23] <neverblue> AncientRelic, im sure you can use the drivers already available
[01:24] <AncientRelic> neverblue: they work at 800x600
[01:24] <neverblue> AncientRelic, talk in #ubuntu-effects, they probably have had more experience with it
[01:24] <AncientRelic> but not at higer res's
[01:24] <neverblue> AncientRelic, which driver?
[01:24] <ward_> musikgoat|laptop, doestn seem to help
[01:24] <AncientRelic> IIRC, whatever's on the CD
[01:25] <freakyfelt> anyone know anything about booting ubuntu on a macbook pro?
[01:25] <ward_> musikgoat|laptop, but in the help of the modem it even says its not possible to port forward stuff that are comming in from outside :s
[01:25] <cec> nickrud, That fixed it thanks.
[01:25] <nickrud> cec, yw
[01:25] <musikgoat|laptop> ward_: not alot of modems have routing,   what is your ip address that you get from the modem?
[01:25] <Pe3k> hello, pls I would like to publish video I recorded on web but it is large (mpeg2, 720x576, 24fps  - 1 minute has over 400MB) . could anybody give me advice  - which format / software shall I use?
[01:26] <neverblue> AncientRelic, cat /etc/X11/xorg.conf | grep driver
[01:26] <ward_> musikgoat|laptop, my modem is connected to my router, DHCP is off on the modem, the ip my router gets from the modem = <IP_ADDRESS>, the ip i have from the router is <IP_ADDRESS>
[01:26] <AncientRelic> neverblue: give me a minute to check
[01:26] <neverblue> AncientRelic, put that in a shell, and check the results
[01:26] <knoppix> i can learn C language where?
[01:26] <Falstius> Pe3k: if you don't need to be super concerned about quality, just use mencoder file.mpg -ovc lavc -oac copy -o file.avi
[01:26] <Sivik> 192.168.#.# is a internal ip address
[01:26] <neverblue> knoppix, online, of course
[01:26] <ward_> offcourse it is... ffs
[01:26] <knoppix> ?
[01:27] <AncientRelic> ward_: The point is your router/modem is doing NAT once
[01:27] <AncientRelic> and your other router is doing NAT again
[01:27] <ward_> AncientRelic, i know that i portforwarded both
[01:27] <AncientRelic> ok
[01:27] <Sivik> ward_, thats over kill to do redundant nating
[01:27] <neverblue> later everyone
[01:27] <ddelony> knoppix: Heres
[01:27] <musikgoat|laptop> yeah, double nat can sometimes be an issue
[01:27] <knoppix> uh
[01:27] <ward_> AncientRelic, my modem to my router, my router to my webserver
[01:27] <musikgoat|laptop> but your stuck with that modem, so do with what you can
[01:27] <ddelony> Oops, Here's a tutorial: http://www.cs.cf.ac.uk/Dave/C/
[01:28] <knoppix> thank
[01:28] <musikgoat|laptop> ward_: what speedtouch 510 version is it
[01:28] <ward_> Sivik, the modem has no wifi, the router does, this is not my house i don't make the calls...
[01:28] <musikgoat|laptop> SpeedTouch510Alt SpeedTouch510i SpeedTouch510v4.0 SpeedTouch510v4.2 Speedtouch510v4.3 Speedtouch510v5 Speedtouch510v6
[01:28] <ward_> musikgoat|laptop, a v4, latest firmware installed
[01:28] <Sivik> ward_, then the person who is in charge is a moron when it comes to networking
[01:28] <nickrud> lol
[01:29] <alexbOrsova> I have a problem with an ISA SoundBlaster 16S sound card, on ubuntu 7.04, can anyone here help me?
[01:29] <ward_> Sivik, the moron in charge would be my dad without knowledge of networking
[01:29] <Sivik> ward_, what kind of ap/router?
[01:29] <musikgoat|laptop> ward_: this doesn't do it?  http://www.portforward.com/english/routers/port_forwarding/Thomson-Alcatel/SpeedTouch510v4.0/FTP.htm
[01:29] <ward_> Sivik, a belkin, let me see for the exact type
[01:29] <Sivik> have u tried reading throught the manual
[01:29] <freakyfelt> i tried booting from the live cd on my macbook pro and i hit the BusyBox and it came up with an error about not being able to log in to tty, leaving me with an (initramfs) prompt. any ideas?
[01:30] <ward_> musikgoat|laptop, i cant even find the list of modems on that site, first time i see this
[01:30] <ward_> let me see
[01:30] <knoppix> how do i create a IRC account?
[01:30] <Pe3k> Falstius: thanks a lot :) it reduced size of video 1 minute long to 14MB ..with good quality ;)
[01:30] <knoppix> i using KNOPPIX
[01:30] <Grungebunny> knoppix you dont' need an account to use irc.. your using it now :)
[01:31] <knoppix> uh
[01:31] <Falstius> Pe3k: yeah, the default quality is good enough for most things.  There are lots and lots of confusing options you can use if you want (but it is generally not worthwhile)
[01:31] <dho_ragus> knoppix: /msg nickserv
[01:31] <Drod> I want beagle search, in Add/Remove Applications, what is the difference between Search and Search & Indexing?
[01:31] <ddelony> knoppix: You can, however, register your nick.
[01:31] <musikgoat|laptop> knoppix seems like it would already be registered, but give it a shot
[01:32] <ward_> musikgoat|laptop, thats exactly what i did and that didnt work
[01:32] <ddelony> Yeah, the hard part of picking a username is finding one that isn't already taken. :-)
[01:32] <Sitherae> lol
[01:32] <alexbOrsova> how do you register usernames?
[01:32] <Pricey> !register | alexbOrsova
[01:32] <musikgoat|laptop> meaning, you got into the right settings,  everything worked right per the instructions, but you cant get the ports forwarded?
[01:32] <ubotu> alexbOrsova: Information about registering your Freenode nick is at http://freenode.net/faq.shtml#contents-userregistration
[01:32] <dho_ragus> freakyfelt: what version of the livecd did ou try?
[01:33] <freakyfelt> 7.04
[01:33] <Sitherae> So.. Guys im about to buy a new graphics card... going to be Nvidia an reccomendations on what manafacturer to use?
[01:33] <Sitherae> any*
[01:33] <freakyfelt> ive installed it on parallels and on a home built pc fine
[01:33] <musikgoat|laptop> Sitherae: i have a BFG,  it has a lifetime warranty
[01:33] <ward_> musikgoat|laptop, they save fine, portforwarding jsut doenst seem to work, and the router is fairly straightforward, should work fine
[01:33] <dho_ragus> freakyfelt: huh... weird.  i haven't tried it, but i'd expect that it would work.
[01:33] <ddelony> Sitherae: ATI driver support really sucks.
[01:34] <Sitherae> ddelony: I know I have ATI right now.. so im getting Nvidia
[01:34] <Sitherae> So BFG is good?
[01:34] <freakyfelt> dho_ragus: any idea how to get it to load up from that prompt?
[01:34] <musikgoat|laptop> i have a BFGtech 7800 GT, and I've loved it
[01:34] <dho_ragus> Sitherae: bfg is the best, definitely get the most frags with that.
[01:34] <dho_ragus> :P
[01:35] <musikgoat|laptop> hehe
[01:35] <alexbOrsova> I have a ISA SoundBlaster 16S but I can't get it working in Ubuntu 7.04, can anyone help?
[01:35] <alexbOrsova> sound card
[01:35] <musikgoat|laptop> ward_: what are you trying to forward?
[01:35] <dho_ragus> ISA?  it's likely that the hardware is broken
[01:35] <Sitherae> musikgoat: 256 or 512?
[01:35] <alexbOrsova> no it works in Windows ME
[01:35] <ward_> musikgoat|laptop, http
[01:36] <kyuubiseal> aha
[01:36] <dho_ragus> huh, well that's a good first step in troubleshooting
[01:36] <ward_> musikgoat|laptop, but i also tried another port, and forward that into port 80, didnt work either
[01:36] <musikgoat|laptop> Sitherae: mine is 256
[01:36] <ward_> so normally it can't be my ISP
[01:36] <freakyfelt> should i try the text-based installer?
[01:36] <Grungebunny> interesting thing..
[01:36] <alexbOrsova> I also have a SoundBlaster 16XV (still ISA) but I cant get that one to work either
[01:36] <musikgoat|laptop> but the GTX is a good card, amongst others
[01:36] <Grungebunny> According to DesktopLinux.com's just completed survey, the number of Desktop Linux users has more than doubled in the past year, and Ubuntu remains their Linux distribution of choice. Of significance, Ubuntu's growing prominence has made GNOME surpass KDE as the most popular desktop environment.
[01:36] <alexbOrsova> if either worked I'd be happy
[01:36] <alexbOrsova> but neither do
[01:36] <kyuubiseal> for those of u that are having troubles with internet......there's a bug in it(ubuntu)
[01:37] <dho_ragus> a bug??  are you kidding??
[01:37] <ward_> kyuubiseal, then file a bug report :-)
[01:37] <kyuubiseal> i found a awesome beryl program for windows
[01:37] <alexbOrsova> I have also tried 'sudo modproe snd-sb16' and it gave an error
[01:37] <john_> Hey, can somebody please help me? I'm trying to install WASTE (http://waste.sourceforge.net/). I've already downloaded wxwaste 1.5 beta 4 and unzipped it, but i'm new to Ubuntu (and linux in general) and i'm not sure what to do...

[01:39] <moo2> manual changes to /etc/resolv.conf keep being over-written by the system - is there a preferred way to set IPs for DNS?
[01:39] <lImItaO> it's possible to keep aspec ratio in ManDVD?
[01:39] <Sitherae> Are 8600GTSs good?
[01:39] <ward_> musikgoat|laptop, i tested another port too (and surfed to it the right way)
[01:39] <dho_ragus> it's best to just use a high-number alternate port.
[01:39] <kyuubiseal> have u tried yod'm 3d
[01:39] <HansHermans> is there a way to install eclipse through apt-get without installing gcj? I just want it to use sun's java. The binary from eclipse.org returns errors
[01:39] <musikgoat|laptop> Sitherae: the 8xxx series has a differnent chipset
[01:39] <freakyfelt> dho_ragus: would i have a better chance by trying the text-based installer cd?
[01:39] <musikgoat|laptop> i don't know if the linux drivers for that are stabel
[01:40] <kyuubiseal> alienware rocks heh
[01:40] <Sitherae> musikgoat: Ahh
[01:40] <mahasamatman> I am going to do a reinstall and want to keep all of the data my wife and I have saved - can I just burn a copy of the home directory?
[01:40] <musikgoat|laptop> i could be wrong though, i haven't checked lately
[01:40] <dho_ragus> freakyfelt: probably not.  you can try some additional boot options though, like noacpi or that sort of thing
[01:40] <kyuubiseal> Ubuntu has an internet prob
[01:40] <freakyfelt> kk. thanx
[01:40] <alexbOrsova> does anyone here have a working soundblaster in ubuntu linux?
[01:40] <ward_> musikgoat|laptop, so what i tried too: portforward port 8888 entering the modem from outside, to port 80 going trough the router
[01:40] <dho_ragus> alexbOrsova: i thin i do...
[01:40] <sike_> sorry?
[01:40] <AncientRelic> neverblue: still around?
[01:41] <ward_> and the router should have portforwarded port 80 to my PC
[01:41] <alexbOrsova> see if you can find out what kind it is
[01:41] <Nayara> heeeellllooooooooo
[01:41] <dho_ragus> alexbOrsova: yeah, an audigy.
[01:41] <musikgoat|laptop> ward_: and that didn't work as well?
[01:41] <john_> Grungebunny: thanks, i'm reading it over. hopefully this will help
[01:41] <alexbOrsova> oh, that's pretty recent
[01:41] <ddelony> Is ISA support enabled in the Ubuntu kernel by default?

[01:41] <alexbOrsova> i dont know
[01:41] <ward_> musikgoat|laptop, correct, that didnt work, shall i try it again to make sure i didnt overlook anything?
[01:41] <alexbOrsova> hopefully because I doubt I can compile my own kernel

[01:41] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about snd-sb16 - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[01:42] <musikgoat|laptop> ward_: I would try direct to your modem
[01:42] <musikgoat|laptop> see if the forwarding will work before crossing the second NAT tabel
[01:42] <ward_> musikgoat|laptop, great idea, brb
[01:42] <mahasamatman> I am going to do a reinstall and want to keep all of the data my wife and I have saved - can I just burn a copy of the home directory?
[01:42] <alexbOrsova> @mahasamatman: why not?
[01:42] <CTho__> I installed XP and it clobbered grub.  I'm booted from the ubuntu CD now - how do I restore grub?
[01:43] <alexbOrsova> @CTho_: run the install cd, then
[01:43] <alexbOrsova> cancel the installation
[01:43] <kersinc07> #ubuntu-es
[01:43] <mahasamatman> @alexb0rsova - I want to make sure that's all I need to do
[01:43] <stassk8>
[01:43] <alexbOrsova> when it asks you to select a step, choose install grub

[01:43] <ddelony> alexBorsova: My guess is that since Ubuntu is designed for newish hardware that the stock kernel only supports PCI. The kernel configuration menu does have options for supporting ISA. Kernel configuration isn't that hard once you ge the hang of it. It's a rite of passage for any Linux user.
[01:43] <ddelony> !kernel
[01:43] <ubotu> kernel is the core of the Ubuntu Operating System (named 'Linux') - see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Kernel.  You shouldn't have to compile one, but if you're convinced you do, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelCustomBuild
[01:44] <Grungebunny> im convinced I need to compile my kernel
[01:44] <alexbOrsova> well I don't know anything about C/C++
[01:44] <Cap1ain> what is events/0 ?
[01:44] <ddelony> alexbOrsova: You don't have to. Configuration is menu-based.
[01:44] <Cap1ain> its taking 99% of my cpu and has been running  for 166 minutes
[01:45] <alexbOrsova> I can program in many languages but I've never tried to lean the big one (C++)
[01:45] <ward__> musikgoat|laptop, DHCP on the modem = on, i was wrong
[01:45] <alexbOrsova> menu-based?
[01:45] <dho_ragus> Cap1ain: kill it
[01:45] <alexbOrsova> ddelony:ike an executable that does it all for you?
[01:45] <alexbOrsova> *like
[01:45] <Cap1ain> dho_ragus, shouldnt i figure out why its doing that?
[01:46] <ddelony> alexbOrsova: When you unpack the kernel source you can either use a text-mode menu or an X menu.
[01:46] <dho_ragus> Cap1ain: if you're looking for enrichment. ;-)
[01:46] <ward__> musikgoat|laptop, what would be a good port to choose instead of 80 ?
[01:46] <ward__> musikgoat|laptop, would 8888 be ok?
[01:46] <musikgoat|laptop> 8080
[01:46] <musikgoat|laptop> sure
[01:46] <alexbOrsova> is there any way to enable ISA support without recompiling? if not, I might do it...
[01:46] <musikgoat|laptop> its all up to you
[01:46] <ward__> ok
[01:47] <squarebottle> I know how to add programs to the startup by going to Applications>Sessions, but how do I add things to the Sessions startup list via the command line?
[01:47] <alexbOrsova> it just seems odd that it's not an option or something
[01:47] <ddelony> !kernel module
[01:47] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about kernel module - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[01:47] <Cap1ain> dho_ragus, kill -9 wont kill it
[01:47] <dho_ragus> Cap1ain: `sudo kill -9` ?
[01:47] <Cap1ain> im logged in as root
[01:47] <dho_ragus> oh, well that's not a good idea.
[01:47] <ward__> musikgoat|laptop, now i immediately get an error, so i think the modem jsut refuses
[01:47] <ddelony> alexbOrsova: Linux uses often loadable kernel modules for device drivers.

[01:57] <john_> i'm trying to run a batch file, but when i double click it, gedit opens up. so i try dragging and dropping it into the terminal and hitting enter. it then says permisison denied. then i tried adding the word "sudo" in front to make it run the batch as root, but it says no such command
[01:57] <alexbOrsova> using synaptic?
[01:57] <t0th_-> driver: vesa video card ati xpress 1200
[01:57] <john_> so how do i run the darn batch file?
[01:57] <gnomefreak> t0th_-: vesa isnt working?

[01:57] <gnomefreak> t0th_-: what is the error you are getting?
[01:57] <alexbOrsova> john_: you can't run .bat (batch) files in linux
[01:58] <ward__> alexbOrsova, i know
[01:58] <gnomefreak> t0th_-: do you have vesa as the driver in xorg.conf?
[01:58] <dho_ragus> john_: try doing `sudo -s` and then running the command.
[01:58] <ddelony> john_ You chmod files to make them executable.
[01:58] <t0th_-> yes gnomefreak
[01:58] <john_> thanks for the tips, i'll try it out

[01:59] <john_> yah, i'm in as root now. thanks :)
[01:59] <alexbOrsova> CodemasterMM:  try to remove it using synaptic
[01:59] <alexbOrsova> CodemasterMM: and if you're really brave try to remove the files manually
[01:59] <CodemasterMM> alexbOrsova: I'm using the server version, so I do not have a gui
[01:59] <ddelony> john_ Scripts usually start with a shebang (#!) line to tell the kernel which interpreter to run the script with: i.e #! /bin/bash for a shell script, /usr/bin/perl for perl.
[01:59] <t0th_-> gnomefreak wath url?

[02:01] <CodemasterMM> nickrud: i'll try that
[02:02] <CodemasterMM> nickrud: nope, that failed when i tried to reinstall it
[02:02] <wanger> ward__ : maybe, hang on - i'll have a look around for something appropriate sounding
[02:02] <CodemasterMM> alexbOrsova: it's weird, though - I only modified the /etc/samba/smb.conf file and i have deleted that
[02:02] <nickrud> CodemasterMM, could you put the complete error from a removal attempt with apt-get on a pastebin
[02:02] <ward__> wanger, thanx a lot
[02:02] <CodemasterMM> sure
[02:03] <alexbOrsova> CodemasterMM: well that's the problem
[02:03] <alexbOrsova> CodemasterMM: if you modified it by hand, it's possible you made a mistake
[02:03] <CodemasterMM> alexbOrsova: right, I deleted it and purge removed the package
[02:03] <alexbOrsova> CodemasterMM: and that's why it said it 'wasn't fully configured'
[02:03] <t0th_-> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/34731/
[02:03] <alexbOrsova> CodemasterMM: you should have restored it to a previous state before attempting to remove it
[02:04] <alexbOrsova> CodemasterMM: I once had a similar problem with X11
[02:04] <CodemasterMM> im sure that was fun
[02:04] <nickrud> alexbOrsova, it should have uninstalled anyway, but possibly it may fail because it couldn't stop samba. The error should tell
[02:04] <alexbOrsova> CodemasterMM: i modified a configuration file and afterwards, it wouldn't start and kept giving me errors
[02:04] <CodemasterMM> oh boy :x
[02:04] <wanger> ward__  nah there doesn't seem to be anything of any use on freenode, it's used primarily by the open-source software community
[02:05] <t0th_-> gnomefreak
[02:05] <t0th_-> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/34731/
[02:05] <alexbOrsova> CodemasterMM: not only that but I couldn't uninstall or modify it
[02:05] <CodemasterMM> alexbOrsova: i hope samba has a sample smb.conf maybe...
[02:05] <nickrud> CodemasterMM, it's a fixable thing, where's the error report?

[02:06] <ubotu> Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu!
[02:06] <t0th_-> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/34732/ the error
[02:06] <CodemasterMM> i'll post a reinstall attempt, alexbOrsova
[02:06] <alexbOrsova> wow I totally guessed that
[02:06] <alexbOrsova> ok, go for it
[02:07] <MonkeyFit> so i just got me an 8800GTX, and was going to install Ubuntu, but i can't get anywhere past the disc boot menu
[02:07] <CodemasterMM> alexbOrsova: http://pastebin.com/d6f1855e3
[02:07] <gnomefreak> t0th_-: do you have xserver-xorg-video-all installed?
[02:08] <MonkeyFit> it goes to a black screen like it's going to switch to the loading animation, but then stays a black screen
[02:08] <MonkeyFit> i can't make it to the live CD GUI
[02:08] <t0th_-> hmmm
[02:08] <alexbOrsova> codemastermm, it looks like it tries to start samba before reinstalling it
[02:08] <CodemasterMM> that's weird
[02:08] <gnomefreak> t0th_-: also make sure you have the desktop package installed if gnome its ubuntu-desktop
[02:08] <t0th_-> i install ubuntu default
[02:08] <alexbOrsova> of course that fails so apparently it gives up on reinstalling it
[02:08] <CodemasterMM> haha
[02:09] <alexbOrsova> of course if it didn't fail maybe the reinstall might work
[02:09] <alexbOrsova> so I think you need to get a sample samba config file

[02:10] <MonkeyFit> has anybody ever run into my problem?  of not being able to get into the Live CD GUI
[02:10] <alexbOrsova> this channel sucks you in

[02:10] <t0th_-> more people eith the same problem
[02:11] <t0th_-> with
[02:11] <bulmer> alexbOrsova: so?
[02:11] <CodemasterMM> alexbOrsova: yeah, i know how it is; what sound card problem do you have, although i am sure i won't know anythin about it
[02:11] <alexbOrsova> my SOundBlaster 16S (ISA, not PCI) wont work
[02:11] <CodemasterMM> oh wow
[02:11] <mcrandello> is the UUID garbage in the grub menu.lst a required thing? It sort of showed up out of the blue this last install
[02:11] <alexbOrsova> I've already tried 'sudo modprobe snd-sb16'
[02:11] <alexbOrsova> it errors out
[02:12] <alexbOrsova> saing the device doesn't exist
[02:12] <t0th_-> in debian my X work fine
[02:12] <t0th_-> the problem is with the ubuntu
[02:12] <nickrud> CodemasterMM, yoiu could try dpkg -i --force-conf-miss ,it'll reinstall the default config files
[02:12] <alexbOrsova> when I can see it installed in my computer :)
[02:12] <bulmer> mcrandello: garbage? you think they designed those things with garbage?
[02:12] <nickrud> CodemasterMM, erm --force-confmiss that is
[02:12] <CodemasterMM> nickrud: yeah, that'd be perfect
[02:13] <mcrandello> bulmer, well it certainly doesn't look human readable, not even when I feed it to a leet speak translator ;P
[02:13] <simonlb> i'm not quite sure how to describe my audio problem, but audio input seems to default to the wrong device.  what works is "YMFPCI (hw:0,3)", which is an option in some programs (audacity, skype, wengophone) but not in others (ekiga)
[02:13] <doms> how to disable java online games inside my firefox because most of my internet students  are playing online games? how can i disable it?
[02:13] <simonlb> and reading from /dev/dsp doesn't work either
[02:13] <nickrud> mcrandello, grub still recognizes the old syntax
[02:13] <bulmer> mcrandello: well its not, its just a numbering
[02:13] <alexbOrsova> bulmer: 'so?': it doesn't encourage repeat use
[02:14] <bulmer> alexbOrsova: maybe if you are patient..someone that knows will assist
[02:14] <nickrud> the uuid's make sense in the long run, I just wish it was more, language-like
[02:14] <zyth> doms: sudo apt-get remove sun-java6-plugin
[02:14] <bmxmarine> BMXMARINE
[02:14] <alexbOrsova> I've been on here for 2 hours
[02:14] <mcrandello> that's my problem too
[02:14] <doms> how to disable java online games inside my firefox because most of my internet students  are playing online games? how can i disable it?
[02:14] <mcrandello> I just don't like looking at those long ass 43oih345o...etc things
[02:15] <bulmer> alexbOrsova: i have been here more than that..so be patient
[02:15] <bmxmarine> does anyone know of a good p2p program
[02:15] <bmxmarine> ?
[02:15] <alexbOrsova> doms: uninstall or disable the plugin (check about:plugins)
[02:15] <CodemasterMM> nickrud: http://pastebin.com/d7d81319b
[02:15] <bulmer> bmxmarine: azurreus is one
[02:15] <bmxmarine> in ubuntu?
[02:16] <Flannel> !uuid | mcrandello
[02:16] <ubotu> mcrandello: To see a list of your devices/partitions and their corresponding UUID's, run this command in a !shell:  blkid  (see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LibAtaForAtaDisks for the rationale behind the transition to UUID)
[02:16] <dho_ragus> bmxmarine: azureus does run in ubuntu
[02:16] <Flannel> mcrandello: You can always use the old stuff, it's just less robust.
[02:16] <alexbOrsova> bulmer: out of curiosity, how long have you been here? and how mush spare time do you have?
[02:16] <doms> my sun-java6-plugin is not installed in my synaptic but still i can play java online games? how can i disable it?
[02:16] <pucca> hi everyone
[02:16] <alexbOrsova> bulmer: do you have a wife and kids?
[02:16] <bmxmarine> is it a program i can search for files and download, or is it more like a handler for torrents?
[02:16] <mcrandello> well gods forbid I get my two hda1's confused with one another ;^)
[02:17] <alexbOrsova> *much
[02:17] <dho_ragus> bmxmarine: it's a torrent client, no search built in.
[02:17] <gnychis> how do i install a .deb i downloaded from getdeb.net ?
[02:17] <CodemasterMM> bmxmarine: just recently Azureus added a search
[02:17] <dho_ragus> bmxmarine: for that type of function you'd need something like gnutella
[02:17] <bulmer> alexbOrsova: yes, you want to adopt mine, they can be yours..lolz
[02:17] <simonlb> my sound cards are using these modules: snd_via82xx, snd_ymfpci
[02:17] <CodemasterMM> bmxmarine: I believe the search they added is more for legal torrents, though
[02:17] <alexbOrsova> bulmer: lol :)
[02:17] <bulmer> they eat a lot and they are hard headed
[02:17] <thedash> are there any non-alphanumeric characters that Ubuntu doesn't ignore in the folder sorting ?
[02:17] <doms> my sun-java6-plugin is not installed in my synaptic but still i can play java online games? how can i disable it?
[02:17] <dho_ragus> gnychis: dpkg install file.deb, i think
[02:17] <alexbOrsova> CodemasterMM: what does samba do exactly?
[02:17] <simonlb> everything in alsamixer is set correctly according to every guide i could find
[02:17] <mcrandello> can I assign my own UUID's somehere, something like "dev-hda1" instead of the cd-key to vista in there?
[02:17] <CodemasterMM> alexbOrsova: windows-accessable shared directories, etc.
[02:18] <bmxmarine> know of any that would fit that bill?
[02:18] <simonlb> i just have to use a bizarro device to read microphone input that's only available in some apps
[02:18] <nickrud> CodemasterMM, let's do a complete removal; aptitude purge samba , and show me the failure log from that
[02:18] <alexbOrsova> CodemasterMM: have you deleted the file that you modified?
[02:18] <simonlb> any way to make /dev/dsp read from the proper device?
[02:18] <CodemasterMM> alexbOrsova: yes
[02:18] <dho_ragus> bmxmarine: nah, i don't do p2p on ubuntu, but you could try `apt-cache search p2p` or `apt-cache search gnutella`
[02:18] <Flannel> mcrandello: you can.  Using... uh, some file system tool that I don't remember the name of.
[02:18] <CodemasterMM> alexbOrsova: there is no error when i purge it
[02:18] <alexbOrsova> CodemasterMM: after your failed reinstallation attempt, was it replaced?
[02:18] <simonlb> (which is YMFPCI - AC'97 (hw:3,0)... whatever that means)
[02:19] <doms> how to disable java online games inside my firefox because most of my internet students  are playing online games? how can i disable it?
[02:19] <CodemasterMM> alexbOrsova: no, last time i tried to reinstall it, the config file was not replaced, which baffled me a bit
[02:19] <doms> my sun-java6-plugin is not installed in my synaptic but still i can play java online games? how can i disable it?
[02:19] <mcrandello> Flannel, ah okay then that's something else to look up then once the system is rebuilt
[02:19] <bmxmarine> i think i will, i got pissed at vista and i moved back to linux after 5 years
[02:19] <bmxmarine> i just got tired of reinstalling vista
[02:19] <CodemasterMM> bmxmarine: wow, what made the experience so horrible
[02:19] <alexbOrsova> CodemasterMM: it baffles me too...
[02:19] <mcrandello> I'm just a little upset that on top of clobbering the options that kept my wifi running it added that
[02:20] <CodemasterMM> yup, it fails again
[02:20] <CodemasterMM> so very weird.
[02:20] <alexbOrsova> CodemasterMM: maybe it's an optional config file that you need for samba to work with your system
[02:20] <dho_ragus> bmxmarine: i used vista since it was available in beta, and i finally gave up on it completely a month or two ago.
[02:20] <diazepam> openvpn gurus - can anyone tell me what directory i should put the ca.crt  client1.crt and client1.key files ?? (on the client machine of course)
[02:21] <alexbOrsova> CodemasterMM: do you remember the steps you took to install samba?
[02:21] <CodemasterMM> diazepam: honestly, for me, i just keep all of my ssl certs in one directory and memorize that location since i have a variety of services that use them
[02:21] <bmxmarine> yea i sent the program back to microsoft and said don't worry about giving me money i then converted all of the family computers ( 7 of them )  to ubuntu and now everyone is happy
[02:21] <CodemasterMM> alexbOrsova: yup, just a simple aptitude install ;)
[02:21] <CodemasterMM> bmxmarine: wow
[02:21] <bmxmarine> how did you change you font color?
[02:22] <alexbOrsova> bmxmarine: why didn't you ask for money?
[02:22] <simonlb> anybody know how to turn off microphone loopback?  nothing in alsamixer seems to adjust it without turning off capturing altogether
[02:22] <CodemasterMM> once games work natively or emulation works very well, linux will definitely be used more, at least for me ;)
[02:22] <diazepam> CodeMaster - thanks
[02:22] <nickrud> CodemasterMM, you could remove  add -v to the first line of /var/lib/dpkg/info/samba.postinst and run it directly, see what error messages you get
[02:22] <CodemasterMM> welcome
[02:22] <bmxmarine> i told them i will cause more damage to them by turning everyone i meet onto linux
[02:22] <CodemasterMM> nickrud: yeah, i can try that - see what verbose debug problems it hits
[02:22] <Flannel> mcrandello: You can do it without repartitioning.  You might even be able to do it live (without booting to a liveCD)
[02:22] <alexbOrsova> bmxmarine: did you get a reply?
[02:23] <dho_ragus> bmxmarine: if you were talking about my font color, things show up differently if you use a persons full handle in the line, so when you're addressing somebody it stands out to them.
[02:23] <alexbOrsova> bmxmarine: that's why i type your name when im talking to you
[02:23] <alexbOrsova> bmxmarine: it stands out :), so did you get a reply from redmond?
[02:23] <bmxmarine> yea weird, they sent me a copy of vista and a year of there  support  and a letter gay
[02:24] <alexbOrsova> bmxmarine: can you email me the letter :) ?
 like this?
[02:24] <bmxmarine> no i see
[02:24] <alexbOrsova> bmxmarine: yea
[02:24] <bmxmarine> so then is worked?
[02:25] <alexbOrsova> bmxmarine: yeah it worked
[02:25] <bmxmarine> i remember irc way back in the day
 way back not all these colors
[02:25] <simonlb> anybody have any ideas?  i've already RTFM and not had any luck
[02:25] <CodemasterMM> well that was funny
[02:25] <alexbOrsova> bmxmairne: haha :)
[02:26] <alexbOrsova> simonlib: whats the problem?
 the kernel is so adept now tho, i cana even to fluid 3d
[02:26] <nickrud> CodemasterMM, don't tell me, when you did it verbose, it worked ;)
[02:26] <CodemasterMM> alexbOrsova, nickrud: I just touched the config file (/etc/samba/smb.conf) and it worked
[02:26] <simonlb> after lots of headaches, i finally got microphone input to work, but it's on a device i can't seem to access with every app
[02:26] <alexbOrsova> CodemasterMM: good job, im gonna quit now
[02:26] <CodemasterMM> haha okay
 now if only i could find a good mmo game for linux
[02:27] <bottiger> I want to be able to write a "" by pressing ALT+w. how do I do that in my xmodmap-file?
[02:27] <thedash> how could I return all folders that contain a certain filetype, but each one not more than once ?
[02:27] <CodemasterMM> bmxmarine: yeah, like i said - if games or emulation worke well
[02:27] <simonlb> all the settings in alsamixer seem to be correct
[02:27] <CodemasterMM> bmxmarine: mainly, a DirectX emulation or a DLL-replacement that translated it into OpenGL
[02:27] <bmxmarine> CodemasterMM: you play any games?
[02:27] <simonlb> i'm not sure how to describe it, but the proper device to read seems to be "YMFPCI - AC'97 (hw:0,3)"
[02:28] <CodemasterMM> bmxmarine: yes, I just picked up Bioshock yesterday, even
[02:28] <simonlb> but that's only an option in some applications.  using YMFPCI doesn't work
[02:28] <bmxmarine> CodemasterMM: still trying to figure that out wine is sooo slow?
[02:28] <CodemasterMM> bmxmarine: could take a look at Cedega
[02:28] <CodemasterMM> iirc, their CVS is free
[02:28] <simonlb> output to /dev/dsp works fine, but input doesn't
[02:28] <simonlb> and i'm so very very confused
[02:29] <bmxmarine> CodemasterMM: i was getting like 60-70 fps in windows now in wine inm like 40
[02:29] <CodemasterMM> yup
[02:29] <CodemasterMM> try using Cedega, it's made for games
[02:29] <Badpenguin86> My friend gets access point invalid on his wireless when running iwconfig. Any helo?
[02:29] <Badpenguin86> help*
[02:30] <bmxmarine> CodemasterMM: i tried it along time ago but there has to be a way without paying for a service
[02:30] <Midnight_Abuse> Anyone program in C++?
[02:31] <Midnight_Abuse> Script :|
[02:31] <CodemasterMM> yes
[02:31] <CodemasterMM> Midnight_Abuse: what'cha need concerning C++
[02:31] <bmxmarine> CodemasterMM: there was another program , crossover or something like that
[02:31] <CodemasterMM> bmxmarine: yeah, the Cedega CVS is free, but the stable version isn't... it's weird
[02:31] <Midnight_Abuse> Haha right now nothing, Just wouldlike to see some of your work ;)
[02:31] <CodemasterMM> Midnight_Abuse: haha, well, i haven't coded in a while sadly.
[02:32] <sudobash> hey sorry im in a terminal so bare with me... Is there a fix for a very slow Grub loading window?... Ubuntu loads fine even VMware runs XP with no problem..... Hardware: P4 2.4, 512 m, 82865 vid., WD80 (WD800), 256 allocated to VM... The bios looks fine although i noticed it take 20 sec of waiting to even find the HD.... no lower than 20.... WTF?  Any help?
[02:32] <sudobash> it take like 2-3 min to load grub
[02:32] <bmxmarine> CodemasterMM: where can i find the free one?
[02:32] <bottiger> CodemasterMM: still - didn't the lock down thier CVS a long time ago? because to many people just used it instead of paying?
[02:32] <nickrud> lol, interesting name, sudobash  (but I know nothing about your problem, sorry)
[02:33] <CodemasterMM> bottiger: not sure
[02:33] <sudobash> or is the problem in my HD?
[02:33] <sudobash> or bios....
[02:33] <CodemasterMM> bmxmarine: http://www.linux-gamers.net/modules/wiwimod/index.php?page=HOWTO%20Cedega%20CVS
[02:33] <bottiger> CodemasterMM: I think so, and because distros like gentoo just made ebuilds for the CVS-version.
[02:33] <CodemasterMM> nice
[02:33] <bottiger> made it to easy for people to install
[02:33] <bmxmarine> bottiger: there is i can't remember where i fount it hto i think i just googled grub  configuring
[02:34] <CodemasterMM> bottiger: last time i checked at least it was free still
[02:34] <frankg> Cannot access the internet - I can ping the gateway but cannot ping internet IP - what next?
[02:34] <lurking> help: im trying to run a script off a cd but it appears everytime i mount it, its set to Read-only file system
[02:34] <bottiger> CodemasterMM: okey - It may be me who is outdated
[02:34] <bottiger> CodemasterMM: haven't used cedega for years
[02:34] <Midnight_Abuse> Hmm.
[02:34] <bmxmarine> CodemasterMM: i'll be back in a min im going to try it out
[02:34] <CodemasterMM> ok
[02:35] <sudobash> anyone know if there is a fix for a very slow grub loader?
[02:35] <alexbOrsova> hey does anyone here know if people can start their own channel?
[02:35] <bottiger> alexbOrsova: on irc? sure - just join an empty channel
[02:35] <CodemasterMM> alexbOrsova: should be able to - just register it with chanserv
[02:35] <lurking> how do you mount a read-write cd? (trying to run a install script off a cd but its write-protected)
[02:36] <alexbOrsova> CodemasterMM: how do you do that?
[02:36] <bottiger> alexbOrsova: /msg chanserv help
[02:36] <CodemasterMM> alexbOrsova: join the channel you want first, then do a /msg chanserv help and he can help you do the rest :)
 shit there has to be a faster way?
[02:36] <CodemasterMM> well, 'it' rather, not 'he'
[02:36] <wicked> hey sorry im in a terminal so bare with me... Is there a fix for a very slow Grub loading window?... Ubuntu loads fine even VMware runs XP with no problem..... Hardware: P4 2.4, 512 m, 82865 vid., WD80 (WD800), 256 allocated to VM... The bios looks fine although i noticed it take 20 sec of waiting to even find the HD.... no lower than 20.... WTF? Should I use lilo or is there a fix for this?
 it think i might tinker with it more tomorrow
[02:36] <CodemasterMM> bmxmarine: there might be, but i haven't found one, nor have i installed it in a long time
[02:37] <dogmeat> is there an installer switch that causes resolution to be low?
[02:37] <dho_ragus> wicked: did you try re-instaling grub with `grub-install` ?
[02:37] <dogmeat> installs at 600x800?
 is that how you are running bioshock?
[02:37] <Deags> hi what is a good vnc server i can get that will go well with tightvnc on my linux machine that i can apt get
[02:37] <CodemasterMM> bmxmarine: oh, no, i haven't tried the game in linux yet :x
[02:37] <wicked> that wouldnt cause any trouble booting would it?
[02:37] <CodemasterMM> bmxmarine: i don't think any of my linux machines have the hardware for it
[02:38] <dho_ragus> wicked: not if you do it right
 yea that is the only thing making me miss windows
[02:38] <Badpenguin86> My friend gets access point invalid on his wireless when running iwconfig. Any help?
[02:38] <wicked> well i installed beryl and vmware on this machine
[02:38] <wicked> but the one im talking about is at my work
[02:38] <Skrypt> I need to build, make, and install wpa_supplicant without the internet on my computer (without access to the internet on that computer) Someone care to help?
[02:38] <bastid_raZor> pidgin people who use encryption.. anyone having run issues with it?
[02:38] <wicked> but it also has vmware on it
 mine is nothing great but good enough i think
[02:38] <alexbOrsova> bmxmarine: why do you miss windows? I was reading the nickserv help
[02:38] <bastid_raZor> CLI pidgin as user doesn't work.. only works if run as root
[02:39] <Deags> i am in search of a good vnc client that is easy to setup and secure i currently have tightvnc on my windows machine so would be great if it was compatable with that
[02:39] <wicked> LINUX running vmXP is the best way to not get a virus or adware and spyware
[02:39] <alexbOrsova> bmxmarine: so i missed it
 just because there are no mmo linux native games worth a damn
[02:39] <CodemasterMM> Deags: anything based on VNC can be compatible, from what i hav eseen
[02:39] <CodemasterMM> bmxmarine: rumor is that WoW will be native soon, but i hate that game
[02:39] <Deags> so whats a good one that i can apt get code that will be secure
[02:39] <wicked> is it very hard to change from grub to lilo?
[02:39] <CodemasterMM> Deags: well, i know xvncviewer is available
[02:40] <wicked> i know a good bit about ubuntu... decent amount
[02:40] <quaal> why is ubuntu failing to mount a cd/dvd when i put it in? http://pastebin.ca/667336
[02:40] <alexbOrsova> wicked: is it very hard to install lilo?
[02:40] <Deags> apt get xvncviewer?
[02:40] <wicked> well to change the config
[02:40] <bottiger> btw - is there any other difference on ubuntu desktop and server other than preinstalled packages?
[02:40] <wicked> configuration i expect
[02:40] <lurking> unable to run script off a write-protected cd
[02:40] <alexbOrsova> wicked: all you have to so is install lilo
[02:40] <alexbOrsova> !lilo
[02:40] <ubotu> lilo is an alternative [Li] nux Boot[Lo] ader. Note: it is recommended that you use GRUB on Ubuntu instead.
 yea me too but hey if only we could get better driver support from the manufactures the linux might grow imensly
[02:40] <CodemasterMM> yeah
[02:41] <wicked> sudo apt-get install lilo
[02:41] <wicked> but will it configure itself?
[02:41] <wicked> or easy atleast?
[02:41] <Deags> codemaster is it sudo apt-get xvncviewer ?
[02:41] <alexbOrsova> wicked: I don't know, I've never installed it. but i suspect you need to install it from a bootable cd
[02:41] <wicked> sudo apt-get install xvncviewer
[02:41] <ztomic> whats the scoop on envy? I can't get fglrx to work and using envy now... good idea?
[02:41] <dho_ragus> bottiger: i'm unaware of any other differences.
[02:41] <dho_ragus> bottiger: the repositories that are used are the same
[02:41] <alexbOrsova> wicked: google 'lilo install' and read the documentation on the lilo homepage
[02:42] <dho_ragus> wicked: i'd do `grub-install --root-directory=/ /dev/sda` or whatever before trying lilo.  just to give it a shot.
 i do like my ati crd tho with the new kernels i am able to utlize some of my new hardware
[02:42] <wicked> what about this... when you install vmware from synaptic it failed to configure 3 or 4 times before i manually configured it.....
[02:42] <ztomic> Is envy taboo here?
[02:42] <CodemasterMM> bmxmarine: yeah, both AMD/ATi and nVidia are making open source drivers soon
[02:42] <wicked> vmplayer i mean
[02:43] <Deags> it says i already have the newest version
[02:43] <Deags> how do i run the xvncviewer then
[02:43] <alexbOrsova> !vmware
[02:43] <ubotu> VMWare Player is in Ubuntu's !Multiverse repository (package "vmware-player"), and http://www.easyvmx.com/easyvmx.shtml can create VMs for it. For VMWare Server, instructions can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VMware - See also !virtualizers
[02:43] <wicked> gets stuck on looking for unused subnets... chaning dhcp configs and stuff....
[02:43] <bmxmarine> it will be sooooo nice the gaming in linux will definatly benifit
[02:43] <Johnuah> Can I burn Ubuntu into a DVD disk?
[02:43] <alexbOrsova> Johnua: yes, but you'll need a bootable DVD image
[02:43] <wicked> there is an ubuntu dvd torrent
[02:43] <wastrel> Deags:  vncviewer <vnc-server-address>
[02:44] <alexbOrsova> Johnua: wait, why would you want to do that?
[02:44] <wicked> its fast too
[02:44] <Deags> i want this computer to be a server
[02:44] <Deags> so what do i do then wastrel
[02:44] <wastrel> server i dunno
[02:44] <alexbOrsova> Johnua: it fits on a CD so why would you need a DVD?
[02:44] <Johnuah> alexbOrsova, My rom is very odd, it can not drive CD but only DVD
[02:44] <lurking> anyone help me with my "mounting" issue?
[02:44] <bmxmarine> i am still trying to figure out how to install *,run files......
[02:44] <dho_ragus> bmxmarine: `/bin/bash ./file.run`
[02:44] <alexbOrsova> Johnua: what? :S
[02:45] <wicked> are there any processes that can be eliminated to improve performance in ubuntu? and tweaks?
[02:45] <Deags> wicked how do i get the vnc server to work do u know?
[02:45] <ztomic> Deags: you also need the display... <vnc-address:0>
[02:45] <Johnuah> alexbOrsova: maybe it has got something wrong
[02:45] <ztomic> Deags: you also need the display... <vnc-address:1>
[02:45] <Johnuah> Every CD can not be read by my rom
[02:45] <Skrypt> I need to build, make, and install wpa_supplicant without the internet on my computer (without access to the internet on that computer) Someone care to help?
[02:45] <Johnuah> But DVD is okay
[02:45] <wicked> download the tightvnc server script and exec it with: sudo sh "filename"
[02:45] <alexbOrsova> Johnua: I don't understand what you mean by 'cant drive the CD only DVD'
[02:45] <wicked> sudo sh
[02:45] <Johnuah> alexbOrsova: yep
[02:45] <Deags> ztomic i have no idea what that means
[02:46] <Deags> how do i get that wicked
[02:46] <wicked> it should be a script
[02:46] <alexbOrsova> Johnua: do you have the correct drivers installed?
[02:46] <wicked> tightvnc.com or realvnc.com
[02:46] <bryan986> Anyone know what I can do If I cant remove a file because it says "Text file busy"? I can't figure out what is using it...
[02:46] <Deags> ehh
[02:46] <alexbOrsova> Johnua: are you on Linux right now or Windows?
[02:46] <wicked> tight is the best i believe
[02:46] <bmxmarine> dho_ragus: says i need to run as a su?
[02:46] <Deags> so just go there and not apt get it?
[02:46] <Johnuah> alexbOrsova: I have burn 5 cds , they can be read by other computer
[02:46] <dho_ragus> bryan986: you can `sudo rm -f filename`
[02:46] <Johnuah> I'm in Win
[02:46] <Deags> shouldnt there be a way to apt-get tightvnc server?
[02:47] <wicked> or use synaptic to install it for you
[02:47] <bmxmarine> dho_ragus: im trying to install the new ati drivers
[02:47] <dho_ragus> bmxmarine: `sudo bash -c /path/filename.run`
[02:47] <bryan986> dho_ragus, still can't remove it that way
[02:47] <ztomic> Deags: #xvncviewer IP.AD.AD.XX:Displaynumber
[02:47] <Deags> i cant fight it on synaptic
[02:47] <alexbOrsova> Johnua, well then I guess your challenge is how to make a bootable DVD image
[02:47] <CodemasterMM> Deags: you can always do an aptitude search [package]  or apt-cache search [package]
[02:47] <alexbOrsova> Johnua, apart from that I don't see what else you can do
[02:47] <dho_ragus> bryan986: ...you can't remove it with sudo rm -f ?  what do you get for `sudo whoami`?
[02:47] <Deags> ztomic i dont understand what that means ata ll
[02:47] <Johnuah> alexbOrsova: you are right
[02:47] <ztomic> Deags: doode! do you know the IP?
[02:48] <Deags> lol code i have no idea what that is im like really new to this
[02:48] <Deags> the ip to what
[02:48] <Deags> the comp i wanna connect from?
[02:48] <ztomic> Deags: doode! to connect to.
[02:48] <bryan986> dho_ragus, I get root
[02:48] <Johnuah> alexbOrsova: Can you give me a DVD iso link?
[02:48] <Deags> i wanna connect to this comp from my windows machine
[02:48] <alexbOrsova> Johnua, you see, that's the thing, I don't think there is a DVD image available
[02:48] <Skrypt> Can someone tell me how to follow these directions? lol http://www.stevens.edu/itwiki/cgi-bin/wiki/index.php?title=Linux_802.1x#Wired_802.1x_.28linux.29
[02:49] <ztomic> Deags: doode! you have no clue at all do you
[02:49] <ztomic> ?
[02:49] <Deags> no
[02:49] <Skrypt> I just need to know how to compile the wpa_supplicant and install it
[02:49] <alexbOrsova> Johnua, all DVD players canm also read CDs
[02:49] <Deags> i have never done any of this before on linux
[02:49] <alexbOrsova> *can
[02:49] <Deags> i have it working on my windows machines just fine
[02:49] <dho_ragus> bryan986: then you should be able to remove it.  if you can't, it might be a read-only filesystem.
[02:49] <boyam> alexbOrsova, you're right...cd's only
[02:49] <Deags> but no clue how or what to do on linux
[02:49] <Deags> thats why i am here
[02:49] <ztomic> Deags: I came in late. Lets make sure I know what you wanna do. What do you wanna do?
[02:49] <bryan986> dho_ragus, lol I just made the file earlier
[02:50] <alexbOrsova> Johnua, start asking around how to convert bootable CD image to bootable DVD image shouldn't bne that hard
[02:50] <alexbOrsova> *be
[02:50] <Johnuah> alexbOrsova: I know that, but my DVD rom had ability to read CD days ago, but after intalling the ubuntu ,it can not
[02:50] <dho_ragus> bryan986: show me some of your terminal output in a pastebin
[02:50] <Deags> lol ok ztomic i am on this machine that has ubuntu on it and i wanna have a vnc server so i can connect to it from my windows machine
[02:50] <alexbOrsova> Johnua, wait so you already installed Ubuntu?
[02:50] <Deags> this is going to be a webserver and i dont wanna have to go on it everytime i wanna make a change
[02:50] <lastnode> guys, need some help. any pcmcia cards / brands that KNOWN to work with the kernel? (that have OSS drivers basically)
[02:50] <alexbOrsova> Johnua, so you can't read CDs from Ubuntu?
[02:50] <Johnuah> alexbOrsova: while rom working ,the sound is not normal
[02:50] <ztomic> Deags: gnome?
[02:51] <Deags> i believe so yes
[02:51] <Johnuah> alexbOrsova: I cannot
[02:51] <john_> i'm still trying to install WASTE (http://waste.sf.net/), but i can't seem to do it
[02:51] <alexbOrsova> Johnua, but you can from WIndows, right?
[02:51] <john_> the package comes with the source code, but when i unzip it and try doing things like "make" it doesn't work
[02:51] <Johnuah> alexbOrsova: I also can't browse the CD in win xp
[02:51] <ztomic> Deags: system->prefs->remote desktop... simple! whats the problem?
[02:51] <Johnuah> but dvd is okay
[02:52] <alexbOrsova> Johnua, but you could do it before you installed Ubuntu?
[02:52] <bryan986> dho_ragus, http://pastebin.com/d1a9edd16
[02:52] <Deags> ty ztomic didnt know there was one packaged to it lemme try it out
[02:52] <alexbOrsova> so can someone here remind me the command for getting hel wth registering a channel?
[02:52] <Megaqwerty> Anyone know how I could pipe the results of a bunch of different programs into another? (i.e. echo "this" && echo "is" && echo "a" && echo "test" | zenity --text-info --title "Testbox" )
[02:52] <Johnuah> alexbOrsova: yes, I could do it before installing ubuntu
[02:52] <alexbOrsova> like nickserv but for channels
[02:53] <Pici> alexbOrsova: /msg chanserv help
[02:53] <dho_ragus> bryan986: what's the full path?
[02:53] <Megaqwerty> alexbOrsova: just a guess, but talk to chanserv?
[02:53] <alexbOrsova> Johnua, well that's a pretty serious problem...
[02:53] <alexbOrsova> thanks Megaqwerty
[02:53] <Johnuah> alexbOrsova: what's the problem really
[02:53] <dho_ragus> bryan986: also, do `sudo lsof | grep '/out'
[02:53] <Deags> looks as if everything is wokring just fine now ty
[02:53] <alexbOrsova> Johnua, it means that your hardware has been damaged
[02:53] <john_> i guess what i'm asking is: how do i compile the source?
[02:54] <sipalui> hello, I can not mount my floppy diskete
[02:54] <Johnuah> alexbOrsova: oh no, r u sure
[02:54] <alexbOrsova> Johnua, i have to go eat, but tell someone else here your problem and everything you told me, they should help you
[02:54] <Megaqwerty> john_: make
[02:54] <Darkkish> how do I mount an iso file?
[02:54] <alexbOrsova> Johnua, no im not sure
[02:54] <Pici> !iso | Darkkish
[02:54] <ubotu> Darkkish: To mount an ISO disc image, type  sudo mount -o loop <ISO-filename> <mountpoint>  - There is a list of useful cd image conversion tools at http://wiki.linuxquestions.org/wiki/CD_Image_Conversion - Always verify the ISO using !MD5 before !burning.
[02:54] <|_ocke> ok so i installed the debian menu (apt-get install menu) and ive tried enabling it by rigth click on menu -> edit menus, check in the debian box
[02:54] <Johnuah> alexbOrsova: you have scared me
[02:54] <Darkkish> thanks
[02:54] <john_> Megaqwerty: 'make install' doesn't work :( i'm still new...
[02:54] <|_ocke> but it doesnt stay, no matter what i do and the menu never appears
[02:55] <Megaqwerty> john_: can you describe what you're trying to do?
[02:55] <john_> i'm trying to install WASTE (http://waste.sf.net/)
[02:55] <wastrel> waste eh
[02:55] <Megaqwerty> john_: give me a second to take a look.
[02:55] <john_> thanks
[02:55] <squarebottle> Hey, is there a way that I can make a program (namely Azureus) startup minimized, so that its icon is on the taskbar?
[02:55] <bryan986> dho_ragus, full path is /media/network/sharename/files/linux, no output from `sudo lsof | grep '/out'
[02:55] <wastrel> john_:  i suppose you have build-essential installed?
[02:56] <Johnuah> Qwerty, can I burn Ubuntu ISO into a DVD disk?
[02:56] <sipalui> every time i right click on the floppy, it say given UID is not a mountable volume
[02:56] <john_> wastrel: it was already checked in synaptic, so i guess that means it is...
[02:56] <dho_ragus> bryan986: can you `cat filename` on either of those files?  the network mount might have stalled
[02:56] <Megaqwerty> john_: which one are you trying to install?
[02:56] <john_> Megaqwerty: wxwaste_1.5_beta_4
[02:56] <dho_ragus> bryan986: actually do `head filename`, easier on the eyes and resources.
[02:56] <john_> the annoucement of its release on the sf page makes it sound like what i'd want.
[02:57] <Megaqwerty> john_: downloading it now...
[02:57] <bryan986> dho_ragus, I do get the beginning of the file from that
[02:57] <john_> Megaqwerty: thanks
[02:57] <sipalui> I'm newbie at this ubuntu thing, and I really need to read from the floppy disk
[02:57] <ztomic> Envy worked. sux that I have to rebuild the driver every time I install a new kernel.
[02:58] <pascla> http://paste.ubuntu.org.cn/3054 help! what's wrong with it.
[02:58] <wastrel> what's envy?
[02:58] <dho_ragus> bryan986: oooh, you know... it could be in use by somebody on the other system.  you might have root privs on your local system, but not on the remote system.
[02:58] <ztomic> Deags: di you figger it out?
[02:58] <Deags> well kind of
[02:58] <dho_ragus> bryan986: you might have to delete it from the remote mount's OS
[02:58] <squarebottle> !envy
[02:58] <ubotu> envy is a script that may leave you envious of those who have not used it, use the resticted manager to install binary drivers or use the instructions on the wiki, this script may break your machine very badly!
[02:58] <Megaqwerty> john_: ./configure --prefix=/usr
[02:58] <ztomic> Deags: whats the problem?
[02:58] <Deags> its working but on my windows machine all i see is a picture of the screen that doesnt change
[02:58] <pascla> http://paste.ubuntu.org.cn/3054 help! what's wrong with it.
[02:59] <john_> ok, let me try to do that
[02:59] <bryan986> dho_ragus, yes I could ssh into that box and delete it, but I kinda want to figure out why I cant now. I'm the only person who uses this share and I haven't started anything on the remote computer
[02:59] <ztomic> Deags: what do you mean?
[02:59] <john_> Megaqwerty: i assume i first have to cd my way to the unzipped dir?
[02:59] <dho_ragus> bryan986: my assumption is that you have not mounted the remote share with the remote system's root user, so you don't have proper permissions to remove the file.
[02:59] <Megaqwerty> john_: yep
[02:59] <Kousotu> can somene help me disable my touchpad?
[02:59] <dho_ragus> bryan986: i could be wrong, but that is a possible perfectly valid explanation.
[02:59] <ztomic> must be a virus
[03:00] <sipalui> I've read the help file, but it didn't work
[03:00] <john_> john@john-ubuntu:~/waste source$ ./configure --prefix=/usr
[03:00] <Deags> like lets say i open the applications menu i dont see that on my windows machine only onthe linux machine so i have to look at the linux screen and direct from the windows machine
[03:00] <john_> bash: ./configure: No such file or directory
[03:00] <bryan986> dho_ragus, well the question then would be how I created a file with higher permissions than I have
[03:00] <sipalui> please anyone enlighten me
[03:00] <Megaqwerty>  !ksynaptics | Kousotu
[03:00] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about ksynaptics - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[03:00] <Megaqwerty>  !info ksynaptics
[03:00] <ubotu> ksynaptics: Synaptics TouchPad configuration tool for KDE. In component universe, is optional. Version 0.3.1-2ubuntu1 (feisty), package size 209 kB, installed size 1012 kB (Only available for alpha amd64 arm hppa i386 ia64 m68k mips mipsel powerpc sparc)
[03:00] <Kousotu> it don't work
[03:00] <dho_ragus> bryan986: it's possible you didn't.  you could have created the file, then another process opened that file.  or you might have some weird permission on that dir like +t
[03:00] <Kousotu> I already tried that
[03:01] <ztomic> Deags: that's a whole other issue.
[03:01] <john_> Megaqwerty: it says ./configure: No such file or directory
[03:01] <ztomic> glad I could help though.
[03:01] <Megaqwerty> john_: your directory is messed up...there is a configure file in the one I downloaded
[03:01] <Megaqwerty> john_: http://umn.dl.sourceforge.net/sourceforge/waste/wxwaste_1.5_beta_4.tar.gz
[03:01] <dho_ragus> bryan986: i'd do the `lsof` on the other system and see what's up
[03:01] <Megaqwerty> john_: is that the right one?
[03:01] <dho_ragus> bryan986: samba might still have that file open for something, or whatever network share daemon you're using.
[03:02] <Kousotu> Megaqwerty: [20:00:37]  ubotu : ksynaptics: Synaptics TouchPad configuration tool for KDE. *Uses Gnome*
[03:02] <bryan986> dho_ragus, it's in use on that machine by smbd
[03:03] <john_> Megaqwerty: yes
[03:03] <bryan986> dho_ragus, stupid samba!
[03:03] <Megaqwerty> Kousotu: It will still run on GNOME
[03:03] <bryan986> dho_ragus, guess I have to compile this piece of junk on my local hard drive
[03:03] <Megaqwerty> Kousotu: just will run faster on KDE
[03:03] <dho_ragus> bryan986: if its speed you're looking for, check out distcc
[03:04] <Kousotu> Megaqwerty: I tried the gsyn... but it says it won't work
[03:04] <KI4IKL> To install ubuntu on the laptop, or not to install ubuntu ont he laptop.
[03:04] <Megaqwerty> Kousotu: dunno...ask someone else. I just remembered that Ksynaptics dealt with touchpad stuff
[03:04] <john_> Megaqwerty: nevermind. i deleted my download and tried the one in the link you sent. this time something happened...
[03:04] <Megaqwerty> john_: okay, good
[03:05] <t0nedef> KI4IKL check your wireless card first, then think hard, everything else seems to go just fine, at least in my experience
[03:05] <Kousotu> Megaqwerty: can it be disabled the "manual" way?
[03:05] <bryan986> dho_ragus, nah, I didn't even get to the make part, I was just trying to configure and it created those files that cant be removed
[03:05] <dho_ragus> ah
[03:05] <Megaqwerty> Kousotu: sure...I think you can comment out the section in /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[03:05] <b_9> I need help with compiz fusion...  Nvidia 7950gtx ubuntu 7.04 laptop...   I don't get window handles....  I've tried some sudo command someone gave me
[03:05] <dho_ragus> that is odd that smbd would keep those open though.
[03:05] <lastnode> !wireless
[03:05] <ubotu> Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs
[03:06] <southafrikanse> hello. How can I get multiple wallpapers on Ubuntu with Compiz-Fusion?
[03:06] <Kousotu> Megaqwerty: I did that to. lol infac, I got pissed of and deleted the section. it STIL works!!
[03:07] <Skrypt> Can someone tell me how to follow these directions? lol http://www.stevens.edu/itwiki/cgi-bin/wiki/index.php?title=Linux_802.1x#Wired_802.1x_.28linux.29
[03:07] <Skrypt> I just need to know how to compile the wpa_supplicant and install it
[03:07] <Megaqwerty> Kousotu: are you sure it isn't still there? and if so, have you restarted X afterwards?
[03:07] <Kousotu> Megaqwerty: yes, several times
[03:07] <Megaqwerty> Kousotu: hmm...give me a second.
[03:07] <t0nedef> Skrypt what version of ubuntu you using?
[03:07] <Kousotu> Megaqwerty: and I'm guite sure it'sgone
[03:08] <Kousotu> Megaqwerty: will do
[03:08] <nickrud> Kousotu, you trying to use gsynaptic?
[03:08] <bryan986> dho_ragus, thanks for the help, at least I know it is samba messing it up. I dont really want to fool with it more than that so I will just delete em remotely
[03:08] <mattasdffda> jackets:
[03:08] <Kousotu> nickrud: I did, it doesn't work
[03:08] <mattasdffda> jackets:
[03:08] <dho_ragus> brynk: no problemo.  try sshfs next time, it's a little more friendly.
[03:08] <dho_ragus> oops
[03:08] <dho_ragus> wrong person
[03:09] <Kousotu> nickrud: I would rather have it blacklisted
[03:09] <dho_ragus> bryan986: that sshfs comment was (obviously) for you
[03:09] <nickrud> Kousotu, you need to add  Option          "SHMConfig"     "true" to the synapics stanza in xorg.conf and restart
[03:09] <bryan986> dho_ragus, thanks I'll have to look at that sometime
[03:09] <Kousotu> nickrud: so It wil not load at all, and I wo't have to deal with it
[03:09] <Megaqwerty> Kousotu: have a look at this: http://ubuntu.wordpress.com/2006/03/24/disable-synaptics-touchpad/
[03:09] <Kousotu> nickrud: one roblem with that.. I deleted the entire section recognising the tuchpad
[03:10] <ztomic> So Envy installs the proprietary ATI driver? What is the difference between it and fglrx?
[03:10] <nathan___> anyone know why I get the error while trying to run Kompozer on Ubuntu 64-bit and how to fix it?  error while loading shared libraries: libgtk-x11-2.0.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
[03:10] <nickrud> Kousotu, rebuild it :) and to turn off the pad, use   Option "TouchpadOff"  "1"
[03:10] <tonyyarusso> nathan___: I think version 0.7.7 had a 64-bit build bug.
[03:11] <Kousotu> nickrud: can't it just be blacklisted?
[03:11] <nathan___> that is 7.7
[03:11] <dho_ragus> bryan986: yeah, definitely check it out.  it works as easy as `sshfs user@hostname:~/remotedir ./mountpoint`
[03:11] <dho_ragus> then you can browse "remotedir" as if it were the folder "mountpoint" on your local box
[03:11] <nathan___> I downloaded the i686 binary, is that wrong one? here's the site: http://kompozer.net/
[03:12] <nickrud> Kousotu, possibly, but those are the methods I learned
[03:12] <Masticore> Is there a special format for the skydome image?
[03:12] <Masticore> Its just turning grey over here
[03:12] <dho_ragus> bryan986: the down-side is that everything is encrypted, so bulk transfers over fast networks will be pretty slow.
[03:12] <tonyyarusso> nathan___: Unless you're running it in a 32-bit chroot, yes, that's the wrong one.  You'd have to build your own, quite likely (or wait a few days - may have something for you soon)
[03:13] <bryan986> dho_ragus, and then I would be able to get rid of samba...
[03:13] <bryan986> err
[03:13] <bryan986> i still need it for windows
[03:13] <Kousotu> tonyyarusso: how would I go about backlisting my touchpad?
[03:13] <tonyyarusso> Kousotu: not sure if what I said before didn't work
[03:13] <nathan___> I am just gonna go back to 32bit I think... I don't have any reason to be on 64-bit anyways
[03:13] <bryan986> dho_ragus, though I'm sure there is some software to mount a drive over ssh
[03:13] <Kousotu> tonyyarusso: darn...
[03:13] <nickrud> Kousotu, http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/34733/
[03:13] <dho_ragus> bryan986: i've actually been looking for something and can't find anything, but the next best thing is winscp
[03:14] <nickrud> !find  libgtk-x11-2.0.so.0 | nathan__
[03:14] <nathan___> do what now
[03:14] <ubotu> nathan__: File libgtk-x11-2.0.so.0 found in libgtk2.0-0, vmware-player
[03:15] <nickrud> nathan__, yes, you're right, the i686 one won't work on 64 bit
[03:15] <drpressure> quick question: if i use a passphrase to protect my gpg/ssh private keys... what algorithm does it use, is it AES?
[03:16] <nathan___> does that mean i should apt-get that libgtk2.0-0 ?
[03:16] <dho_ragus> wow, i didn't know ubotu could find.
[03:16] <nickrud> nathan__, no, you should look for a 64bit kompozer
[03:16] <dho_ragus> !find id_rsa.pub
[03:16] <ubotu> Package/file id_rsa.pub does not exist in feisty
[03:16] <nickrud> nathan__, I did that find before I saw your second post about your architecture
