[01:46] <eegore> I am going to hose my windows partition
[01:46] <seamus7> I previously had 2560x800 but I now can't seem to get it to back ... I'm sure it's a resolution setting in my xorg.conf
[01:46] <slacker_nl> anto9us: a new CD did the job

[01:51] <SubMOA> hello
[01:51] <pinchartl> I'm running into the mysql amd64 sigill problem. does anyone know if a fixed packages is available somewhere ?
[01:52] <SubMOA> no idea, sorry

[01:53] <ba5e> has anyone got a widescreen here working without a problem?
[01:53] <stefg> me
[01:54] <eegore> backup is not the issues, I can reinstall quicker, I just need a boot floppy so I can reinstall grub when it does get hosed
[01:54] <SubMOA> maybe something here daedra :http://www.hypothetic.org/docs/msn/resources/projects.php

[01:57] <Draco> Hi, I am adding a second drive to my machine but I am unsure as to what to make the access path and what filesystem to use ?
[01:57] <SubMOA> CLMsn, daedra looks to be the only on on that list that's command-line
[01:58] <Infeliz> speak english or eat baguettes
[01:58] <arieen> bum
[01:59] <stefg> Draco, two drives open up clever posibilities to increase performance. But to give you more advice you'll have to provide more info
[01:59] <Draco> stefg: I already have a drive running with the system on it all I want to do is add a second drive for storage nothing fancy
[02:00] <Draco> the drive may also not be permanent so I dont want the system to depend on it
[02:00] <stefg> draco: do you dual boot with win, or do you just need ubuntu to read the drive?
[02:00] <Draco> just ubuntu
[02:01] <SubMOA> any info on Edgy Eft built in encryption?
[02:02] <Draco> would that be ext3 ?
[02:02] <stefg> draco so hook it up to the system, partiton it, format it with ext3 or reiserfs. make a mountpoint in /media (maybe /media/storage) and edit /etc/fstab to get the drive mouznted at boottime
[02:03] <Draco> so I can create my own mount point instead of of using the drop down list ?
[02:04] <KDan> clean install of ubuntu desktop 6.10 on my father's laptop... no errors during install, everything appears to have gone fine... look at the documentation, "how to mount windows disks".. Step one is go to "System > Admin > Disks". Small problem: no item called "Disks" in System > Admin. any thoughts?
[02:04] <stefg> draco: to be honest.: i ignore all the gui-tools in ubuntu for that, so i cant tell how they work. I do things like that from the console
[02:04] <KDan> (no item called anything remotely like 'disks')
[02:04] <Draco> stefg: im still a newb so im weary of console
[02:05] <bbieber-lap> Anyone know how to re-open a bug in launchpad...? It was previously rejected because the original reporter couldn't get a valgrind log....
[02:05] <stefg> draco, i can walk you through that... all i need to know is the device name of your new drive
[02:05] <Draco> stefg: /dev/hdb1
[02:05] <burepe> Isn't there a fix for choppy video playback? Direct something or other?
[02:06] <Zaggynl> How do I check if someone is connected to vino?
[02:06] <stefg> draco... hmmm is hdc empty? would be better to have the second disk on a separate IDE channel
[02:06] <Draco> stefg I have to dvd writers on second channel
[02:06] <neutrinomass> Does anybody have a usb adsl modem that uses the ueagle-atm driver or at least the CD with the firmware ?
[02:07] <stefg> draco: ok, i see... so the drive is already connected, all you need to do is format and mount it, right?
[02:07] <Draco> stefg yup thats it
[02:08] <KDan> what's the apt-get package for the "System > Admin > Disks" config utility in ubuntu desktop? Doesn't appear to have installed on my 6.10 install
[02:08] <stefg> draco, so give me the output of 'sudo fdisk -l' to http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/ please, to have a look how the kernel sees your disks now
[02:08] <pinchartl> is there a way to configure apt to ignore updates for a specific package ? I downgraded mysql-server-5.0 from edgy to dapper, and would like apt-get not to upgrade the package to edgy
[02:09] <stefg> pinchartl: google for apt-pinning
[02:09] <pinchartl> stefg: thanks
[02:09] <Riyonuk> Where do I check partitions and hardrive space?
[02:10] <stefg> df -h
[02:10] <Draco> stefg:  done, http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/39148/
[02:10] <stefg> k
[02:11] <stefg> Drako: get a terminal and 'sudo -s'
[02:11] <stefg> you are root then
[02:11] <Draco> done
[02:11] <Schalken> when you insert a cd in edgy and its icon appears on the desktop, does it say the cd's name?
[02:11] <slacker_nl> Schalken: yes
[02:11] <KDan> seriously... where is the "System > Admin > Disks"? Why is it missing and/or how can i make it show up?
[02:12] <stefg> Drako : mkfs.ext3 /dev/hdb1
[02:12] <Draco> kdan aure you logged in with permissions to see it ?
[02:12] <Schalken> slacker_nl: good, because it didnt when i used kubuntu and i didnt like it! :P
[02:12] <stefg> Draco : mkfs.ext3 /dev/hdb1
[02:12] <KDan> Draco: i'm logged in as the only user that can log in on that system
[02:13] <KDan> it's a normal user on the sudoers list
[02:13] <Draco> stefg:  done
[02:13] <Schalken> also does ubuntu color the output of ls by default?
[02:13] <hkBst> does ubuntu have i686 compiled kernels in addition to the i386 ones?
[02:13] <KDan> are you saying that i only get a partial list unless i do something special?
[02:13] <stefg> Draco: mkdir /media/storage
[02:13] <Draco> stefg:  done
[02:14] <stefg> Draco Mount /dev/hdb1 /media/storage -o users
[02:14] <stefg> Draco: mount /dev/hdb1 /media/storage -o users
[02:14] <Schalken> hkBst: not sure about edgy, but dapper did
[02:15] <Draco> stefg permission denied : /dev/hdb1 /media/storage -o users
[02:15] <stefg> draco: are you still root?
[02:15] <Draco> stefg:  bash: /dev/hdb1: Permission denied as root
[02:15] <Draco> yup
[02:15] <stefg> HUH?
[02:15] <Riyonuk> I cant seem to find GTKWifi in Synaptic, http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=34645, anyone know if its ubuntu reposotories?
[02:15] <stefg> OK, FORGET THE -O USERS
[02:15] <stefg> ooops
[02:16] <Draco> still denied
[02:16] <KDan> What is the ubuntu package that contains "System > Admin > Disks"?
[02:16] <stefg> draco any warnings when you did mkfs.ext3?
[02:16] <Schalken> KDan: gparted...or maybe thats 'partition editor'
[02:16] <slacker_nl> Draco: mount /dev/hdb1 /media/storage -o users
[02:17] <KDan> Schalken: is that what System > Admin > Disks maps to?
[02:17] <KDan> if you run it on your box, does it start gparted?
[02:17] <SubMOA> crypto on Edgy? Anybody?
[02:17] <Draco> thanks slacker_nl that worked
[02:18] <stefg> draco: anyway, doesn't matter. To make the mount permanent you neet to add the disk to /etc/fstab.. i think it's safest if you paste me your /etc/fstab to pastebin
[02:18] <Draco> k one sec
[02:19] <KDan> aha http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=260317

[02:24] <phatlip_> i'm running into the bug where you get "cannot access tty;" after the splash screen hangs ( https://launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/+source/xserver-xorg-video-ati/+bug/67487 )
[02:24] <Draco> stefg:  do I have to have lost and found, its  been created on that drive ?
[02:24] <stefg> draco so you've got the drive on the desk now, no?
[02:25] <phatlip_> i need to modify the xorg.conf file - but can't get to a CLI to do that.
[02:25] <Draco> stefg: yup drive is there called storage
[02:25] <stefg> lost+found is required by ext3 and created automatically
[02:25] <reiki> LjL, thanks for the blkid thing... THAT shows all partitions and UUIDs ... HOWEVER the UUID for hda1 and sdb1 are the same.... so much for unique IDs
[02:25] <phatlip_> someone suggested booting with break=bottom - how can i do that?
[02:25] <Draco> cool well looks like im all set
[02:25] <LjL> phatlip_: boot into recovery mode...?=
[02:25] <sc0tty> hello
[02:25] <Draco> stefg:  thanks a mil for the help
[02:25] <sc0tty> I'm having a weird problem with my nvidia driver :s
[02:25] <stefg> draco so write on it, to check if everything is ok
[02:25] <LjL> reiki: the same? ugh. file that as a bug i guess!
[02:25] <phatlip_> LjL: using the alternate install CD or live ?
[02:25] <IdleOne> phatlip,  hit alt+f and type terminal
[02:26] <IdleOne> alt+f2
[02:26] <LjL> phatlip_, using your installation. at the Grub menu, select recovery mode
[02:26] <reiki> LjL, I clone sdb1 from hda1 .... I can't find any way to GENERATE a new UUID
[02:26] <sc0tty> it works fine, but every time I boot my ubuntu X fails to start, saying that the module in the kernel isn't the same version as my driver (I'm on 6.06)
[02:26] <sc0tty> but if I stop gdm, unload nvidia (modprobe -r nvidia) and reload it (modprobe -i nvidia)
[02:26] <Draco> stefg: You do not have permissions to write to this folder.
[02:26] <LjL> reiki: ah, it's a clone, i see... well hold on, i'll try to find out how UUIDs are generated
[02:26] <sc0tty> and start gdm again, it works fine :s
[02:26] <stefg> i knew that...
[02:27] <phatlip_> LjL, thanks.
[02:27] <slacker_nl> c'mon..
[02:27] <beasty> reiki: i migt switch to tera mai
[02:27] <sc0tty> the only idea I have is to build my own kernel, to avoid that problem, but I'd like to avoid it :p
[02:27] <reiki> beasty: don't be fooled... in the end there is only one
[02:27] <LjL> phatlip_: but wait, you don't *have* an installation yet? in that case, i'd just try the alternate cd i guess
[02:28] <Draco> stefg: permissions are -r--r--r--
[02:28] <stefg> draco. if you copy files over which belong to your user (and have write permissions set) you can write to them. but the copying has to be done with sudo cp ...
[02:29] <slacker_nl> ....
[02:29] <slacker_nl> I need the AMD version
[02:29] <slacker_nl> how could I have missed that!
[02:29] <beasty> i know reiki :)
[02:29] <beasty> but it's just that the tera-mai system has more 'practice evenings' in my area
[02:30] <Draco> stefg:  that cant be the solution ? I need apps to write to write to the drive
[02:31] <Stalwart> i have problem with ubiquity
[02:31] <phatlip_> LjL, i do have an installation.
[02:31] <Stalwart> http://img409.imageshack.us/my.php?image=screenshotqz8.png
[02:31] <phatlip_> LjL, i tried the live CD - installed, no dice on restart. then i tried alternate.
[02:31] <phatlip_> then i looked up bugs. now i'm here.
[02:32] <KlausVonEisenerz> Hello, any ideas in this ? The following packages have unmet dependencies: build-essential: Depends: libc6-dev but it is not going to be installed or libc-dev Depends: g++ (>= 4:4.0) but it is not going to be installed E: Broken packages
[02:32] <KlausVonEisenerz> ( i've done apt-get update , and /etc/apt/sources.list looks ok i think )
[02:33] <Draco> stefg:  ?
[02:33] <LjL> phatlip_: well, i don't know about that specific bug, but i'm pretty sure you *will* be able to reach a console by either using plain recovery mode, or at worst removing the "splash" kernel parameter (in the Grub menu again - select the entry, hit E, select the kernel line, hit E, remove 'splash' and add 'nosplash')
[02:33] <davidwinter> hi all
[02:33] <slacker_nl> KlausVonEisenerz: g++ is in the libg package I believe
[02:33] <stefg> draco: unmount the drive again and set the mountpoint permissions. sudo chmod 755 /media/storage
[02:33] <davidwinter> what's the best way to check if I have the nvidia drivers installed correctly? I've checked the xorg.conf file and it has 'nvidia' in there. But I don't see the Nvidia logo at bootup
[02:33] <KlausVonEisenerz> slacker_nl, so i should install it manual ?
[02:33] <Theodor> Guys I'm having this problem:
[02:33] <phatlip_> LjL, https://launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/+source/xserver-xorg-video-ati/+bug/67487 - the bug. now confirmed.

[02:34] <stefg> sudo umount /dev/hdb1
[02:34] <Theodor> What the heck is that?
[02:35] <reiki> trying to find out how to generate a UUID for a cloned drive. I currently have 2 drives with the exact same UUID.... not good
[02:36] <Riyonuk> WhooHoo! Finally, my internets back, stupuid program, how do I get rid of GTKWi-Fi?
[02:36] <LjL> reiki: is that an ext2/3 filesystem?
[02:36] <reiki> LjL yes, ext3
[02:36] <LjL> reiki: then "man tune2fs", search for the "-U" option
[02:37] <stefg> draco: so that's sudo -s, then umount /dev/hdb1 , chmod 755 /media/storage, mount -a
[02:37] <reiki> ok thanks...
[02:37] <IdleOne> Riyonuk, how did you install it?
[02:37] <davidwinter> what's the best way to check if I have the nvidia drivers installed correctly? I've checked the xorg.conf file and it has 'nvidia' in there. But I don't see the Nvidia logo at bootup
[02:37] <Riyonuk> I downloaded a .deb and ran sudo dpkg..yeah something like that

[02:43] <my_haz> ubuntu-newbie: apache is a whole world, you should read a proper tutorial on the subject
[02:43] <my_haz> Riyonuk: df -h /usr
[02:43] <reiki> LjL, tune2fs looks like it will generate a new UUID. Now I have to wonder if I will have to manually create the symlink in /dev/disk/by-uuid and.... where else? Hard to find "for humans" documentation on this
[02:43] <daedra_> lol
[02:43] <Riyonuk> Yeah I noticed that, it installed a bunch of files
[02:43] <pike_> ubuntu-newbie: if you installed via a ubuntu repo then sudo /etc/init.d/apache start  or stop or restart   take a look at the /etc/init.d/ directory for other services
[02:43] <ubuntu-newbie> tried that
[02:43] <ubuntu-newbie> removed apache, installed apache2 with apt-get
[02:43] <my_haz> Riyonuk: you might also check out "top" and "du -h ."
[02:44] <tafsen> un_operateur, what's the difrence from hd0,0 and hda1?
[02:44] <nolimitsoya> could anyone advice me on how to enable encryption on  a rfi logitech keyboard?
[02:44] <Riyonuk> my_haz, this? /dev/hdd1              54G  3.0G   48G   6% /
[02:44] <ubuntu-newbie> /etc/init.d/apache2 restart does nothing, no output
[02:44] <Draco> slacker_nl:  id assume that to be rw instead of ro ?
[02:44] <slacker_nl> jep
[02:44] <my_haz> Riyonuk: looks about right
[02:44] <un_operateur> tafsen, you mean whats the diffy between hda0 and hda1?
[02:44] <Riyonuk> Man I love the terminal :D
[02:44] <my_haz> Riyonuk: you might think about downloading the pkg, gkrellm or torro
[02:45] <Riyonuk> my_haz, what are those? Care to give me a command :p
[02:45] <my_haz> Anyone know how to encrypt a file on my hardisk?
[02:45] <stefg> man gpg
[02:45] <Draco> ok done how do i reinitialise the disk ?
[02:45] <LjL> reiki: i don't think you'll have to generate them manually... but perhaps it'll be safer to do this from a live CD
[02:45] <my_haz> Riyonuk: they are pkages that help you see what your system/disk are up too
[02:45] <my_haz> Riyonuk: they give your desktop a mad scientist type feel :D
[02:45] <tafsen> un_operateur, no. When I typed what you said I got a list of hda1 hda2 hda3 etc.  But in the /boot/grub/menu.lst there's nothing like that. There's only hd0,0 and etc
[02:46] <daedra_> htop is an awesome version of top for process monitoring
[02:46] <Riyonuk> Wtf, I thought you guys said ubuntu had no registry...after doing du-h, I found "./.registry/HKEY_CURRENT_USER/Software/XPde/Desktop/Config"
[02:46] <un_operateur> mykilx, errm this could work  -- openssl base64 < filename > filename.encrypted
[02:46] <reiki> LjL, I don't have a liveCD for edgy. And if I create one.... what would I do when I boot it?
[02:46] <w3ccv> ubuntu-newbie, try   /etc/init.d/apache2 start  - nor restart  you may not see any command line output what does 'ps -ef | grep http'  show
[02:46] <stefg> tafsen: grub counts 0,1,2, kernel/fstab count 1,2,3 ... (hd0,0) == /dev/hda1
[02:46] <ubuntu-newbie> pike_: I already tried sudo /etc/init.d/apache2 start / stop / status / restart and got no output. Nothing running on port 80
[02:46] <daedra_> Riyonuk: that would be a mounted partition
[02:47] <Riyonuk> No, I formatted my whole hard drive
[02:47] <nolimitsoya> could anyone advice me on how to enable encryption on  a rfi logitech keyboard?
[02:47] <my_haz> Riyonuk: that must be for some application
[02:47] <my_haz> Riyonuk: there is in registry in UNIX
[02:47] <Riyonuk> I tihkn its from xpde
[02:47] <tafsen> stefg, so hda2 is hd1,0 or hd1,1?
[02:47] <w3ccv> ubuntu-newbie, have you set up the httpd.conf file
[02:47] <lupine_85> tafsen: (hd0,1)
[02:47] <un_operateur> tafsen, hda1 by fdisk corresponds to hd0,0 in grub, hda2 to hd0,1, etc
[02:47] <stefg> tafsen: hda2 is (hd0,1)
[02:47] <pike_> ubuntu-newbie: i havent installed apache in ubuntu.. ls /etc/init.d| grep apache  shows what?
[02:47] <Draco> slacker_nl: see http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/39152/ please
[02:48] <pike_> ubuntu-newbie: well havent installed since hoary anyway
[02:48] <tafsen> thank you guys ;)
[02:48] <Riyonuk> my_haz, I cant seem to find torro
[02:49] <narvik86> Draco: sudo mount -a ?
[02:49] <Draco> slacker_nl: here is fstab http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/39153/
[02:49] <ubuntu-newbie> pike_: shows apache2 (6.10 comes with apache, but I removed that using the package manager and used apt-get to install apache2)
[02:49] <ubuntu-newbie> w3ccv: the httpd.conf is in /etc/apache2, but I haven't editted it
[02:49] <stefg> draco there's a typo in your fstab, i think
[02:49] <narvik86> Draco: ops sorry, there is #, maybe show us /etc/fstab
[02:49] <my_haz> Riyonuk: let me see if i can remember the name
[02:50] <Draco> here is fstab http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/39153/
[02:50] <ubuntu-newbie> w3ccv: ps shows nothing running (apache or http)
[02:50] <Draco> just changed ro to rw
[02:50] <ramvi> Evolution only wants to spell check in English for some reason..? But my whole OS is in Norwegian. How do I fix this?
[02:50] <un_operateur> ubuntu-newbie, can you navigate to http://localhost ?
[02:50] <ubuntu-newbie> nope
[02:51] <pike_> ubuntu-newbie: i know apache2 uses seperate config file paths so i wouldnt think that is the problem.. not sure you could just try launching it like sudo apache2& and if it gives any errors maybe try #apache
[02:51] <w3ccv> ubuntu-newbie, I think you need to configure that before anything will run.  starting apache should show errors in /var/log/messages i fi tdoesn't start, and may tell why.  sounds like it's time for you to RTFM -
[02:51] <stefg> draco: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/39154/
[02:51] <my_haz> Riyonuk: i don't remember the name exatly install gkrellm its the more common.
[02:51] <un_operateur> pike_, use apache2ctl instead  -- sudo apache2ctl start
[02:51] <firepol> hi there. anybody had problems enabling DMA on SATA Hard disks? Did you solve it, how?
[02:52] <Riyonuk> my_haz, what exactly does gkrellm do?
[02:52] <pike_> un_operateur: gotcha
[02:52] <gregoire> hey! I have some problems to get my wifi card working on feisty. The chip is bcm4309 (rev 03)
[02:52] <stefg> !feisty
[02:52] <ubotu> The next version of Ubuntu (7.04; codenamed "Feisty Fawn"), it should be released in April 2007. At the moment it is alpha. Schedule: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/FeistyReleaseSchedule - Specifications (goals): https://features.launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/feisty - Help in #ubuntu+1
[02:52] <JosefK> foobar^, if you're the guy that built the Edgy Emacs packages, thanks ^^
[02:52] <gregoire> stefg: thanks
[02:52] <narvik86> stefg: what pass column(in fstab) means?
[02:52] <my_haz> Riyonuk: i found via "apt-cache search 'system monitor' " torsmo :D
[02:52] <w3ccv> ubuntu-newbie, yes apachectl is another way, but the config has to be set up.  RTFM
[02:53] <stefg> narvik86: man fstab
[02:53] <my_haz> Riyonuk: torsmo is the one
[02:53] <Riyonuk> ahh
[02:53] <Riyonuk> so sudo apt-get install torsmo?
[02:53] <codemonkey2> anyone know about zeus webservers? i need to get an apache .htacces with rewrites working
[02:53] <my_haz> Riyonuk: thats the  one :D
[02:53] <Riyonuk> Oh yeah, Im awesome
[02:53] <my_haz> Who knows how to encrypt a file on the disk
[02:53] <Draco> stefg:  amended remounted and -r--r--r--
[02:53] <Riyonuk> -_-
[02:53] <Riyonuk> E: Couldn't find package torsmo
[02:54] <stefg> Draco: and if you sudo chmod 755? how's it then?
[02:54] <my_haz> Riyonuk: my system is a bit dated but i got it from "http://us.archive.ubuntu.com breezy/universe "
[02:54] <ubuntu-newbie> no output in syslog or messages
[02:54] <stefg> Draco: sudo chmod 755 /media/storage ? how's it then?
[02:54] <ubuntu-newbie> this is turd
[02:54] <my_haz> Riyonuk: you did do "apt-get update"
[02:54] <Riyonuk> Uhh how come firefox wont start?
[02:54] <Riyonuk> no
[02:54] <w3ccv> my_haz, you can use PGP or GnuPG
[02:55] <my_haz> w3ccv: but then won't i need some key if i wan't to open it on another computer
[02:55] <my_haz> w3ccv: like some special file or something?
[02:55] <un_operateur> ubuntu-newbie, how about in /var/log/apache2
[02:55] <felixfoertsch> Could anyone help me with this problem: http://img409.imageshack.us/img409/7960/screenshotyi4.png?
[02:55] <ubuntu-newbie> nope, just two empty access.log and error.log
[02:55] <w3ccv> my_haz, yes.  remember the 'passphrase'
[02:55] <codemonkey2> anyone know about zeus webservers? i need to get an apache .htacces with rewrites working
[02:55] <Draco> stefg:  chmod simply returns to prompt with no errors
[02:56] <ttyfscker_> is there no w32codecs for ppc?
[02:56] <Draco> stefg:  but no change to permissions
[02:56] <my_haz> w3ccv: yes the password, but also like some special key file, correct?
[02:56] <stefg> Draco: that's good...
[02:56] <ttyfscker_> nor flash-plugin?
[02:56] <my_haz> w3ccv: because its like an public key thingy
[02:56] <Riyonuk> How do I remove the firefox flash plugin?
[02:56] <stefg> Draco: sometimes (for obscure reasons to me) it takes a reboot...
[02:56] <Draco> stefg: folder reading shows drwxr-xr-x
[02:56] <stefg> bingo!
[02:57] <Draco> well cant hurt to reboot be right back
[02:57] <tafsen> Is this enough too make an entry for Windows in grub? title           Window$ XP

[02:57] <stefg> cahinloader +1
[02:58] <stefg> chainloader +1
[02:58] <tafsen> what does chainloader +1 do?
[02:58] <un_operateur> ubuntu-newbie, check if apache is responding - sudo apache2ctl -v
[02:58] <un_operateur> ubuntu-newbie, this too - sudo apache2ctl -l
[02:58] <ubuntu-newbie> will do
[02:58] <JimmyJo22> hi
[02:58] <JimmyJo22> mchte gerne diesen 3d desktop installieren habe eine nvidia 7600 go und ubuntu 6.10 gibt es dafr vielleicht eine anleitung?
[02:58] <Riyonuk> Nothing loads in firefox >_>

[02:59] <w3ccv> my_haz, if you just encrypted, I don't think so, but it you encrypt it to someone else, then you do.  Or you could use zip -e to encrypt.  No I haven't done it but worth a try.
[02:59] <stefg> tafsen: man grub :-)... chainloader gives control to NTLDR, which boots win then
[03:00] <daedra_> hey what can I use to burn an iso at command line?
[03:00] <stefg> cdrecord
[03:00] <stefg> !bashburn
[03:00] <ubuntu-newbie> un_operateur: I get a response
[03:00] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about bashburn - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[03:00] <stefg> !info bashburn
[03:00] <ubotu> Package bashburn does not exist in any distro I know
[03:00] <ubuntu-newbie> Server version: Apache/2.0.55

[03:01] <accept> How do I set up my Wlan card so I can see all of the WiFi networks of my area, and if possible, connect to them?
[03:01] <ubuntu-newbie> plus a module list
[03:01] <my_haz> w3ccv: what would be the command with gpg ?
[03:01] <accept> !wifi
[03:01] <ubotu> Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs
[03:01] <codemonkey2> grr who knows about zeus webserver
[03:01] <my_haz> Riyonuk: how did you mess up firefox?
[03:01] <un_operateur> ubuntu-newbie, the first lists the version the second a list of modules, right?
[03:01] <reiki> LjL, ok I used uuidgen to create a new uuid. I assigned that uuid to /dev/hda1 as per tune2fs using the -U parameter. blkid still shows duplicate uuids and there is no symlink in /dev/disks/by-uuid ..... this is kinda maddening :)
[03:01] <ubuntu-newbie> un_operateur: yes
[03:01] <GreyGhost> /msgf ubotu !modem
[03:01] <Draco> stefg:  well no luck on reboot
[03:02] <Riyonuk> my_haz, I dont know it just takes a loooong time for any page to load, GAIM keeps crashing, sometimes firefox loads and quits, Im going back to windows :p
[03:02] <Draco> this is just nuts
[03:02] <Theodor> Hey, I currently have 3 partitions. Drive D where I have my windows installed. Driver E is where I want to install my Ubuntu and drive F where I keep my data.
[03:02] <Theodor> What to choose in the installation?
[03:02] <Draco> i cant believe how hard it is to add a hard drive
[03:02] <Riyonuk> I should have kept my windows partition, it was so fast
[03:02] <M0E^lnx> can someone tell me which kernel ships with edgy?
[03:02] <daedra_> do I need any other flags on cdrecord like devicename, target etc?
[03:02] <codemonkey2> anyone know about zeus webservers? i need to get an apache .htacces with rewrites working
[03:02] <my_haz> Riyonuk: maybe you should have
[03:02] <un_operateur> ubuntu-newbie, ok, check if the syntax of all the apache config files is ok -- apache2ctl -S
[03:03] <Theodor> I'm presented with the following: Resize SCSI1 (0,0,0) partition #5 (sd) and use freed space.
[03:03] <stefg> draco: the drive is writable by root... get to the properties-tab and check 'write' for group, too
[03:03] <Theodor> Erase entire disk
[03:03] <Theodor> Use the largest continuous free space
[03:03] <my_haz> Riyonuk: Linux is fast, actually i a much more usefull on on a unix box, but if you like windows then use it
[03:03] <Theodor> and manually edit partition table.
[03:03] <GreyGhost> hmm.... my dial up modem used to work with 6.6 but not with 6.1
[03:03] <Draco> stefg:  tried wont allow me to tick any of those boxes
[03:03] <Theodor> What should I choose? I want to keep my drive D and F where I have my windows data.
[03:03] <GreyGhost> 6.06 6.10
[03:03] <stefg> Draco ... as root... gksudo nautilus --no-desktop
[03:03] <Riyonuk> my_haz, Unix box? You mean like a computer made for linux?
[03:04] <my_haz> Riyonuk: exactly
[03:04] <Draco> stefg:  ok u lost me on that last one
[03:04] <Riyonuk> :o
[03:04] <un_operateur> ubuntu-newbie, sorry that was supposed to be  apache2ctl -t .. apache2ctl -S should give you a list of loaded virtual hosts
[03:04] <Riyonuk> my_haz, I want one...
[03:04] <my_haz> Riyonuk:  i used Solaris for a long time, then FreeBSD now i use linux
[03:04] <ubuntu-newbie> will give it a go
[03:04] <my_haz> Riyonuk: i don't like winodws, but thats just me
[03:04] <Theodor> Any ideas people ?
[03:04] <No_Hope>  is any 1 in here looking for great web hosting at cheap prices ?
[03:05] <my_haz> No_Hope: free :D
[03:05] <ubuntu-newbie> un_operateur - i've f'cked something up. will have to sort that out first
[03:05] <ubuntu-newbie> thanks for your help
[03:05] <jessed> hello i'm new to ubuntu and i am trying to install ndiswrapper. I followed the instructions to get an error so i believe its somehting with the kernel.  when i type in sudo apt-get install linux-headers-`uname -r` command i  recieve an error E: Couldn't find package linux-headers-uname -r.  Could anyone please give me some insight to this issue
[03:05] <Riyonuk> I dont know, Im serisoly considering going back to windows, it was waaay faster than my ubuntu, maybe its just my machine
[03:05] <ikonia> Riyonuk: any OS is only as good as its configuration
[03:05] <my_haz> jessed: "run the command uname -r"
[03:05] <No_Hope>  www.vibenet-hosting.com is the place sorry to advertise we just want to make the website known and do our best to get people good priced packages
[03:06] <Theodor> Fellas, I really need someone to reply.
[03:06] <Theodor> What should I choose?
[03:06] <my_haz> jessed: actually you can just "sudo apt-get install linux-headers"
[03:06] <jessed> my_haz ok
[03:06] <stefg> Draco... ah, i did a mistake ... chmod 775 , not 755 ... so sudo chmod 775 /media/storage
[03:06] <un_operateur> Riyonuk, windows runs out of steam after a couple of months -- its gets awfully slow
[03:06] <ikonia> my_haz: he has to be missing the ticks
[03:06] <GreyGhost> how do i figure out to which COM port my modem is in?
[03:06] <Riyonuk> un_operateur, not mine :p, mine used less than 50mb of Ram
[03:06] <codemonkey2> anyone know about zeus webservers? i need to get an apache .htacces with rewrites working
[03:06] <jessed> i get the erro E: package linux-headers has no installation candidate
[03:06] <my_haz> jessed: `this-in-ticks-is-a-command`
[03:06] <Draco> stefg:  ok well i got to it from gksudo nautilus just add group ?
[03:06] <GreyGhost> under win its COM1
[03:06] <my_haz> jessed: `ls /usr/pcorn"
[03:07] <un_operateur> Riyonuk, what? you were running win 2.1?
[03:07] <LjL> reiki, have you rebooted? i guess that the uuid will only be read again after a reboot. also, i suppose you better leave the partition unmounted while changing the blkid
[03:07] <Riyonuk> un_operateur, no, windows xp home
[03:07] <pike_> jessed: make sure not to use quotes like ' use ` or an alternative is linux-headers-$(uname -r)
[03:07] <jessed> greyghost: no such file or directory
[03:07] <un_operateur> Riyonuk, errm, i dont believe you
[03:07] <GreyGhost> jessed ... ?
[03:07] <Riyonuk> *pro
[03:07] <jessed> sorry my haz
[03:07] <GreyGhost> k
[03:07] <Riyonuk> un_operateur, its true. I could tell you where to get it >_> but you guys dont support warez :p
[03:08] <stefg> Draco... yes. i try to avoid to make the drive world-writable.. but group-writable is fine. then change the group to , say, 'users' and make yourself member of group 'users'
[03:08] <reiki> LjL I'll try a reboot. :)  this whole UUID thing is a bit weird though..... just not a lot of information on it and what's out there can be a bit "sketchy"
[03:08] <jessed> my_haz: mind if i pm you?
[03:08] <Draco> stefg: ok done that and 775 not reflecting gonna reboot
[03:08] <rusher> hello
[03:08] <stefg> Draco... hold on... do something first:
[03:09] <w3ccv> my_haz, gpg -c <filename>   This will encrypt with symetrical cypher   output goes to filename.gpg. then use gpg -d <filename.gpg> to decrypt and redirect to a  new filename
[03:09] <my_haz> jessed: go for it
[03:09] <stefg> too late :-/
[03:09] <GreyGhost> !hi | rusher
[03:09] <ubotu> rusher: Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu!
[03:09] <Riyonuk> un_operateur, believe :p
[03:09] <my_haz> w3ccv: i will try
[03:09] <rusher> thanks h
[03:09] <rusher> anyone try debian sarge ?
[03:09] <LjL> reiki, well, it's rather new. at least, it being actually used for identifying partition is new.
[03:10] <Riyonuk> GreyGhost, you have to get a bot to say Hi for you >_>
[03:10] <my_haz> w3ccv: that works, excapt i don't like the stdout bit, hehe
[03:10] <GreyGhost> Riyonuk ,thats equivalent to a "hi" from everyone in here ;)
[03:10] <my_haz> w3ccv: funny words :D
[03:10] <Riyonuk> Are there slipstreamed version of ubuntu?
[03:10] <Riyonuk> :p
[03:11] <w3ccv> my_haz, if it is a binary file, yes they look funny on the screen
[03:11] <jhammel> hello.  my right alt key doesn't work in ubuntu edgy.  i can get it to work in gnome using http://speeves.unt.edu/newindex/?p=185, but in fluxbox (my preferred wm) i am pwned
[03:11] <un_operateur> Riyonuk, I run XP too -- XP pro infact -- and with no apps running, it's already using > 128Mb and about the same in Page File usage
[03:11] <Riyonuk> haha lame :p
[03:11] <jhammel> anyone know how to fix this?  the instructions at http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-162852.html don't seem to help :(
[03:12] <Draco> stefg:  permissions changed read write exec for group but i still cant write to it
[03:13] <rusher> write to what draco
[03:13] <stefg> Draco, right, because you are not a memeber of users
[03:13] <rusher> add your name to the group in /etc/group
[03:13] <Draco> rusher:  write to my stupid hard drive im trying to add to the computer
[03:13] <Riyonuk> OMG...Ill be browing in firefox and it will just quit
[03:13] <rusher> chmod 777 /mnt/dir  and chmod 777 /dev/hd?
[03:13] <rusher> do that as sudo
[03:14] <Draco> stefg:  the default user isnt a member of groups ?
[03:14] <Riyonuk> un_operateur, Operating System RAM Memory Usage > 42Mb ( 3Mb)
[03:14] <Riyonuk> WINDOWS folder > 397M
[03:14] <stefg> chmod 777 makes it world-writable.... i have bad felings about5 that
[03:14] <rusher> just as a test
[03:14] <wouaren> hi all
[03:14] <rusher> you can change it to 614 later
[03:14] <my_haz> Riyonuk: is your system fully up-to-date
[03:14] <Riyonuk> hi wouaren
[03:14] <Riyonuk> my_haz...I dont know
[03:15] <Riyonuk> But I know it has something to do with that flash plugin..if only I could uninstall it
[03:15] <stefg> Draco: better idea... make the group of the folder 'plugdev' :-) ...
[03:15] <rusher> chown user:user foldername or device

[03:15] <jessed> hello i'm new to ubuntu and i am trying to install ndiswrapper. I followed the instructions to get an error so i believe its somehting with the kernel.  when i type in sudo apt-get install linux-headers-`uname -r` command i  recieve an error E: Couldn't find package linux-headers-uname -r.  Could anyone please give me some insight to this issue
[03:15] <stefg> Draco: sudo chown /media/storage root:plugdev
[03:15] <un_operateur> wouaren, probably root's cron jobs
[03:15] <rusher> paitart , is it a hd?
[03:16] <Riyonuk> my_haz, how do I completly update my system?
[03:16] <paitart> rusher, its a wireless (b)card
[03:16] <rusher> sudo apt-get dist-upgrade
[03:16] <rusher> install ndiswrapper and reboot
[03:16] <Draco> stefg: chown: `/media/storage': invalid user
[03:16] <wouaren> un_operateur: ok thanks i wondered if it was some kind of hacking !
[03:16] <paitart> ah ic
[03:16] <rusher> automatix helps a lot with the ndiswraper thing
[03:16] <paitart> thanks rusher
[03:17] <kurodachi> hola
[03:17] <un_operateur> jessed, perhaps just this -- sudo apt-get install linux-headers
[03:17] <pike_> paitart: all i had to do was sudo apt-get install linux-restricted-modules$(uname -r)
[03:17] <rusher> or seach for it in synaptic
[03:17] <jessed> it says "you should explicitly select one to install
[03:18] <Riyonuk> pike_, Hey, whats that game again? I think my firefox is working now
[03:18] <jessed> E:package linux headers ha no installation candidate
[03:18] <pike_> Riyonuk: website is temulous.info
[03:18] <Riyonuk> How do I completely update my system?
[03:18] <Riyonuk> ok
[03:18] <Draco> stefg: chown: `/media/storage': invalid user
[03:18] <un_operateur> jessed, make sure you spelt the thing right -- linux-headers
[03:18] <stefg> Draco... ok, so make it sudo chown 777 /media/storage ... you can deal with teh access rights later, and read a bit about file-ownerships in Linux
[03:19] <pike_> Riyonuk: er tremulous.info

[03:19] <FreeNet> hi people will like some kind soul to explain, how to use virtual directory for web servers? My problem is that i setup a file indexer in my webserver's document root... and one of it's setting asked me to create a folder outside of server root... with the php script set to point at it. so that file uploaded will be sent to there... but till now I cannot get this "so-called" virtual...
[03:19] <m12> i'm writing a script.  i need it to delete a folder for me.  however RMDIR won't delete a folder unless it's empty.  what should I use instead?
[03:19] <FreeNet> ...directory up. Will need help in understanding how it works.
[03:20] <Riyonuk> Well I clicked on offical files and its connecint
[03:20] <jhammel> m12: rm -rf;  but be warned!  its dangerous
[03:20] <m12> how so
[03:20] <Draco> rebooting
[03:20] <jessed> un_operateur> linux headers is already the newest version
[03:20] <ultm8> hello every1
[03:20] <my_haz> Riyonuk: like with the "sudo apt-get update" "sudo apt-get upgrade"
[03:20] <ultm8> am having a problem with avast antivirus
[03:20] <jhammel> m12: well, it will recursively remove everything.  so type it unwisely and your filesystem is pwned
[03:20] <jessed> yet when i attempt to install ndiswrapper i get all sorts of errors
[03:21] <Riyonuk> There has got to be something wrong with my connection...this is taking forever
[03:21] <stefg> !ndiswrapper
[03:21] <ubotu> Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs
[03:21] <ultm8> getting an error message that says can't write buffer /home/usr/.avast/log/avastgui.log to disk
[03:21] <ultm8> any body got any clues
[03:21] <pike_> Riyonuk: youll want to grab the other maps after the initial install
[03:21] <Aoirthoir> HOOORAY!
[03:22] <Riyonuk> Its still loading >_>
[03:22] <Riyonuk> There we go!

[03:23] <jessed> 2.6.17-10-generic
[03:24] <Grizzly616> alright... Im having problems with starting my computer, after installing ubuntu on it... I had a windows on the hard disk, but the linux was installed on the scsi drives, and now the grub doesn!t come in, just crashes when it loads. Help me, please!!!
[03:24] <davidwinter> hi all
[03:24] <Draco> stefg:  nope the drive is still not writable
[03:24] <zokzok_> allo
[03:24] <fabio__|> i would like to install ubuntu server on a machine in the office where i work. that machine has a Raid hardware device, if I try to run a Desktop Ubuntu live cd on that, can i be sure that RAID will be correctly recognized by the ubuntu server installation? thanks.
[03:24] <un_operateur> jessed, sudo aptitude install linux-headers-2.6.17-10-generic
[03:24] <slyboots_> Hi
[03:25] <davidwinter> I've almost fixed my screen resolution on my monitor. I've got it set to 1440x900 (supported by my monitor), however, it appears 'too wide'. That it doesn't all fit on the screen. The right hand portion, perhaps 20px is missing offscreen (the volume icon)
[03:25] <Vorbote> Grizzly616: Is grub in the first boot disk as per the BIOS?
[03:25] <jhall> hi. is there a way to pipe colored output to more or less?
[03:25] <slyboots_> I've run into a little problem, Ran usermod, and its trashed my group settings, so now I can no longer use Sudo
[03:25] <un_operateur> davidwinter, you probably need to use the buttons under your screen (on the monitor) to fine tune it a bit
[03:25] <w3ccv> davidwinter, the width control on the monito could fix that
[03:25] <jhall> or another method to capture colored output?
[03:26] <Draco> stefg:  nope the drive is still not writable
[03:26] <Grizzly616> Vorbote> how do i know<
[03:26] <Grizzly616> ?
[03:26] <un_operateur> jhall, errm, not really, why the fuss?? :)
[03:27] <fabio__|> anything nice to handle SVN through ubuntu?
[03:27] <accept> I need help on how to set up my WiFI router. The network-admin tool shows it but doesn't activate it. and I at least need to see all of the wifi networks. Please help!?
[03:27] <fabio__|> (i'm looking something like TortoiseSVN for windows)
[03:27] <stefg> draco : but if you just give 'mount' it's indicated that it's mounted read/write?
[03:27] <FreeNet> un_operateur: Ok... it's seems to be the perfect solution except can u pls tell me where should i put the <Directory>? Is it inside <VirtualHost *:80>? because i have 3 ports virtual hosting.
[03:27] <jhammel> accept: to see all the wifi networks, iwlist <device> scanning
[03:27] <accept> ok
[03:28] <jhall> un_operateur: well, i'm executing a script that has colored output and my terminal won't let me scroll up. I played with the scrolling settings but it didn't help. My next thought was to pipe the output to more or less but both more and less did not preserve the colored output and was just black and white
[03:28] <jhammel> accept: that works on most but not all cards
[03:28] <Draco> stefg: /dev/hdb1 on /media/storage type ext3 (rw,noexec,nosuid,nodev)
[03:28] <accept> No scan results
[03:28] <Riyonuk> There has got to be something wrong with firefox or my connection because Im downloading 100mb at 100kb/s and yet when browing it takes a good 5min to load google, why is this? I tried that Ipv6 thing and it didnt help much
[03:28] <un_operateur> FreeNet, the directory can reamin anywhere on the harddrive --  http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.0/mod/core.html#directory
[03:28] <stefg> Draco ... where comes that 'noexec' from?
[03:28] <accept> jhammel: Isn't it supposed to be activated for that to work?
[03:28] <Draco> stefg:  dunno just typed mount
[03:29] <jonah1980> hi can anyone please help me out - how do i check if ports are firewalled under ubuntu - i'm using edgy and i've been trying to portforward on my router but they still seem to be closed...
[03:29] <erchache> anybody uses munin?
[03:29] <fabio__|> Riyonuk: maybe your dns has some issues?
[03:29] <plagerism> Okay, I am going to use lvm to create a logical volume across three different sized drives(250gb,320gb and 95gb) Can it still be striped??
[03:29] <daedra_> can't dd be used to write iso's to disk?
[03:29] <pike_> accept: steps i do to connect to a open AP: sudo ifconfig ath0 up  then  iwlist ath0 scan  then sudo iwconfig ath0 essid whatevername   then dhclient ath0   your card maybe wlan0 or eth1 or whatever
[03:29] <un_operateur> jhall, no pager is going to remember colour because it just recieves text piped to it and the colour meta info is not passed into the pipe
[03:29] <slyboots_> Okay, Is there a way to change the default root password in Ubuntu, *Without* using Sudo?
[03:29] <jhall> un_operateur: any other suggestions? :)
[03:29] <stefg> Draco: what happesn if you  'sudo touch /media/storage/testfile' ?
[03:29] <w3ccv> jonah1980, iptables -L
[03:30] <jhammel> slyboots_: boot disk?
[03:30] <slyboots_> I've got a live CD
[03:30] <fabio__|> can someone suggest me a good SVN client for Ubuntu??
[03:30] <rusher> i know how slyboots
[03:30] <rusher> sudo passwd root
[03:30] <my_haz> slyboots_: log in as root
[03:30] <slyboots_> My group-settings are trashed, and I can no longer use sudo
[03:30] <ph8> is nautilus rubbish for anyone else?
[03:30] <Grizzly616> alright... Im having problems with starting my computer, after installing ubuntu on it... I had a windows on the hard disk, but the linux was installed on the scsi drives, and now the grub doesn!t come in, just crashes when it loads. Help me, please!
[03:30] <Vorbote> plagerism: No. You have to create a raid0 on them first and the limitation is the smalest drive.
[03:30] <Riyonuk> Does DNS have to do with browing? This never happened in windows :p
[03:30] <un_operateur> jhall, I dont think there are any solutions/workarounds as i already explained why
[03:30] <ph8> it takes a good 7/8 seconds to delete on file on mine atm
[03:30] <LjL> slyboots_, boot with "init=/bin/sh" as a kernel parameter, then restore your group
[03:30] <jhall> hmm actually, i wonder if scrollings not working because i'm using screen...
[03:30] <erchache> i have a trouble with munin...any help?
[03:30] <ph8> and that operation freezes every other nautilus window
[03:30] <slyboots_> Hmm.. okay
[03:30] <asubedi> how would I know if current version of evince is compiled with dbus support
[03:30] <liakoSS> hi
[03:30] <my_haz> slyboots_: ctrl alt f2
[03:30] <Draco> stefg:  returns to prompt and file is created
[03:30] <liakoSS> ?!?
[03:30] <pike_> ph8: thunar owns nautilus imo.  naut is too big
[03:31] <ph8> thunar?
[03:31] <Riyonuk> fabio__|, how do I fix my DNS?
[03:31] <stefg> Draco, so it's just a permission thing for you as a user..
[03:31] <pike_> ph8: xubuntu
[03:31] <plagerism> Vorbote, can I create a striped logical volume with the same size as the smallest volume, and then a linear of the rest?
[03:31] <jonah1980> w3ccv, it says something about destination and chains - do i need to put port addresses in too?
[03:31] <Draco> stefg why cant i be the owner ?
[03:31] <Vorbote> plagerism: YUP
[03:31] <fabio__|> Riyonuk: /etc/resolv.conf
[03:31] <stefg> Draco...you could try, but actually the chmod 777 should have made the drive writabl by anyone
[03:32] <Draco> stefg it didnt include everyone when i look at properties
[03:32] <w3ccv> jonah1980, pastebin the output, i'lltake a look
[03:32] <stefg> draco, so set it... with a root-nautilus
[03:33] <Draco> stefg:  others has read and execute bit no write
[03:33] <stefg> so check write
[03:33] <Vorbote> plagerism: I haven't tried it but try tis, make your LVM, meke two volumes the same size and strip them, it should work (it is relativelively easy to fool mdadm).
[03:33] <Riyonuk> fabio__|, what about that file?
[03:33] <erchache> and after....mark wants ubuntu on servers....
[03:33] <erchache> of 905 persons...nobody uses munin
[03:34] <Riyonuk> Well I just think I fixed it
[03:34] <Grizzly616> seeking assistance in running my pc normally, without liveCD, if someone could help me, i would be most grateful!!!!
[03:34] <Grizzly616> alright... Im having problems with starting my computer, after installing ubuntu on it... I had a windows on the hard disk, but the linux was installed on the scsi drives, and now the grub doesn!t come in, just crashes when it loads. Help me, please!
[03:34] <jonah1980> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/39159/
[03:34] <Riyonuk> pike_, I fixed firefox :p
[03:34] <daedra_> jhall: im on screen too - it rocks!
[03:35] <daedra_> you just scroll with pgup/pgdown
[03:35] <MisterMAD> Ciao a tutti qualcuno parla italiano ?
[03:35] <daedra_> !it
[03:35] <ubotu> Vai su #ubuntu-it o su #kubuntu-it se vuoi parlare in italiano, in questo canale usiamo solo l'inglese. Grazie!
[03:35] <jonah1980> sorry i left the chat by accident, above is the pastebin for my portforwarding problem
[03:35] <MohShami> hey guys, I installed ubuntu on my work PC, it had an ATI graphics card, I removed it and started using the built in intel card, which uses the i915 modle, but I can't seem to be able to install it, where can I find that module?
[03:36] <pike_> Riyonuk: what was problem?
[03:36] <stefg> Draco: BTW as a side note: run sudo tune2fs -m0 /dev/hdb1 (this will free the reserved 5% capacity for root)
[03:36] <Riyonuk> pike_, remmember I told you that google even took minutes to load?
[03:36] <pike_> Riyonuk: dns thing?
[03:37] <Riyonuk> No, I went to about:config and changed ipv6 to true :p
[03:37] <Riyonuk> anyways pike_, its 78% done
[03:37] <Grizzly616> OMFG, no one listens to mz questions!!!!! aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaarghhh!
[03:37] <FreeNet> un_operateur: Sorry for example give "Alias /img /var/images" - Does the /img folder has to be there in the document root?
[03:37] <jonah1980> hello can anyone please help me out - i think my system might be firewalled, i've opened up the port on my router but my p2p is still saying it's blocked - how do i check and open the port up?
[03:38] <cbx33> Grizzly616, what's up?
[03:38] <Riyonuk> Grizzly616, sorry to tell you, but were volunteers or whatever...gotta be paitent
[03:38] <plagerism> Grizzly616, whats the error grub gives you?
[03:38] <Grizzly616> >d
[03:38] <Grizzly616> wow.
[03:38] <Fraj> Hi
[03:38] <Grizzly616> it doesnt give me an error, it just stops
[03:38] <un_operateur> FreeNet,  /img is the "virtual directory" and should not exist on the filesystem -- meanwhile /var/images is the real directory and should exist
[03:38] <pike_> Riyonuk: well id install it to my home directory so just run it without sudo. like "bash filename.run" i normally make a /home/user/games folder before hand to install to
[03:38] <Fraj> how do i find out what graphic card iv got?
[03:38] <Riyonuk> Hi Fraj
[03:38] <yakumo> hello i reinstall my ubuntu and backup my file on another disk, the problem is the folder name changed to ???? it is suppose to be a japanese character...
[03:38] <stefg> jonah1980: you are using dhcp, aren't you?... Port-forwarding only works with fixed IP's in your LAN
[03:38] <Fraj> hi riyonuk
[03:38] <Grizzly616> and i have the same problem with other linuxes.
[03:39] <FreeNet> un_operateur: ok thanks
[03:39] <Fraj> basically
[03:39] <Riyonuk> pike_, wtf, I have to make a directory? It doesnt do it by itself? Wow, windows sure has made me lazy
[03:39] <Fraj> got a problem
[03:39] <Fraj> everytime i scroll down on any software
[03:39] <Fraj> the screen kinda flickers
[03:39] <Fraj> u know when it pauses for a secound and then scrols down
[03:39] <Fraj> it started when i upgraded to 6.10
[03:39] <Fraj> any ideas?
[03:39] <wouaren> perhaps videos drivers not correctly set or mouse driver problem
[03:39] <Riyonuk> Fraj, sounds like a graphics card kinda problem, I had that problem on windows, I just upgraded my video driver
[03:39] <un_operateur> stefg, port forward works with auto-assigned IPs too -- but there's no guarantee the port-forward will remain so forever because the IP address of the machine may change
[03:39] <uu> Fraj: vesa driver in /etc/X11/xorg.conf ?
[03:40] <Fraj> ok so how do i find out what gfx iv got?
[03:40] <daedra_> lspci
[03:40] <Fraj> i kinda chucked my mobo box away
[03:40] <Fraj> lol
[03:40] <Riyonuk> :o
[03:40] <stefg> un_operateur: that's the long version, which i was to lazy to type :-)
[03:40] <Infeliz> chuk norris
[03:40] <Fraj> oh wait i found it
[03:40] <pike_> Riyonuk: itll make a tremulous dir but i dont like having a bunch of random folders in my home directory
[03:40] <Riyonuk> chuk norris? where >_>
[03:40] <Fraj> doi go to manufacturers site and dwnload drivers?
[03:40] <daedra_> behind you!
[03:40] <Infeliz>  chucknorrised your box away
[03:41] <un_operateur> stefg, better to have said - port-forwarding on non-fixed IP's is not a good idea ..
[03:41] <un_operateur> :)
[03:41] <Riyonuk> Fraj, maybe, if they support linux drivers, somtimes they dont :p
[03:41] <uu> Fraj: what card you have?
[03:41] <Grizzly616> and sorry, im just upset about ubuntu completely messing the whole thing up.
[03:41] <Fraj> its onboard
[03:41] <jonah1980> i'm using a static ip, but that's as far as i've got!!
[03:41] <Fraj> Asrock AM2NF4G-SATA2
 stefg, better to have said - port-forwarding on non-fixed IP's is not a good idea .. < QFT
[03:41] <fabio__|> when I add a new deb repository (ex: for beryl stuff) sometimes new updates or package (from the original ubuntu rep) appears.. So i don't want to upgrade the stuff for secondaries repositories, how can i know from which repository a package will be upgraded? thanks.
[03:41] <Grizzly616> And i dont want to use it anymore for now.
[03:41] <uu> Fraj: that's for you hard disk not video :)
[03:42] <Riyonuk> pike_, uhh how do I make a folder?
[03:42] <jonah1980> my service provider has the option to assign a static ip, so i'm lucky there
[03:42] <andyshack> evening folks. has anyone had any luck getting some of the upnp servers running on ubuntu ? id love to nuke my dos box.
[03:42] <Fraj> NVIDIA GeForce 6100
[03:42] <Fraj> thats the chipset
[03:42] <stefg> jonah1980: so see your routers manual how to set up port forwarding on the ports you use for your P2P
[03:42] <Infeliz> Riyonuk: mkdir
[03:42] <un_operateur> jonah1980, but the IP address on your LAN machine must be fixed too for port-forwarding to be guaranteed
[03:42] <Riyonuk> Ill try
[03:42] <Fraj> ok it doesnt support linux
[03:42] <pike_> Riyonuk: mkdir directoryname      or you can just right click and make one using the file manager. so mkdir ~/games  or mkdir /home/user/games the ~/ equals /home/yourusername
[03:42] <Fraj> :S
[03:42] <Fraj> onli windows
[03:43] <jonah1980> stefg, i've done as it says but gtorrent is still saying it's blocked and the port test says it's closed
[03:43] <Fraj>     *  Socket AM2 for AMD Athlon 64FX / 64X2 / 64 and Sempron processors
[03:43] <Fraj>     * nVidia GeForce 6100 chipset
[03:43] <Fraj>     * nVidia nForce 410 MCP chipset
[03:43] <un_operateur> !paste | Fraj
[03:43] <ubotu> Fraj: pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (be sure to give the URL of your paste - see also the #ubuntu channel topic)
[03:43] <stefg> jonah1980: is your Provider blocking p2p-traffic?
[03:43] <uu> Fraj: then edit /etc/X11/xorg.conf, find where driver is set to vesa, and change it to nv
[03:43] <Riyonuk> pike_, so mkdir ~/games would be the same?
[03:43] <Fraj> Integrated NV44 graphics DX9.0 VGA, Pixel Shader 3.0, Max. shared memory 128MB
[03:43] <jonah1980> un_operateur, how do i do this then? i tried turning dhcp off in networking but then i couldn't acess my router or internet
[03:43] <pike_> Riyonuk: yeah
[03:43] <Fraj> ok hold on
[03:43] <andyshack> jonah1980 : go to canyouseeme.org and test there to see if your port is open.
[03:44] <Riyonuk> Ok, I see it pike_ but it doesnt have a folder icon, it has a orange circle with a white lock
[03:44] <reiki> using uuidgen I have generated a new UUID for /dev/hda1. Using tune2fs -U I have assigned that new UUID to /dev/hda1. The new UUID is shown properly in /dev/disk/by-uuid HOWEVER ... blkid still shows the old UUID. How do I get blkid to rescan? It seems to be using a cachefile
[03:44] <un_operateur> jonah1980, keep DHCP on the router on .. but assign your eth0 a static address
[03:44] <Infeliz> use nmap -sS :P
[03:44] <jonah1980> stefg, they might be but i've done as portforward website suggests and tried using the port 60000 instead of 6881
[03:44] <Fraj> uu
[03:44] <Fraj> do i open the file xorg.conf
[03:44] <Fraj> and
[03:44] <Fraj> replace
[03:44] <Fraj> Driver		"vesa"
[03:44] <Riyonuk> how do I delete a file?
[03:45] <Fraj> vesa bit with nv
[03:45] <Fraj> then save?
[03:45] <un_operateur> jonah1980, after you assign a static address, make sure the ports are being forwarded to the right IP address
[03:45] <un_operateur> Fraj, stop
[03:45] <pike_> Riyonuk: its not a fps but you can apt-get install wesnoth wesnoth-music   kind of a might and magic game not bad
[03:45] <Riyonuk> Fraj, make it one sentance
[03:45] <jonah1980> un_operateur, thanks, so am i leaving the dhcp on the networking options in ubuntu and just changing within the router or vice versa?
[03:45] <Fraj> make what one sentence?
[03:45] <Riyonuk> pike_, I gotta delete that games folder, it wont let me :(
[03:45] <Fraj> my writing?
[03:45] <Riyonuk> yes
[03:45] <Fraj> oh right ok  sorry
[03:45] <Fraj> so am i doing ther ight thing?
[03:45] <pike_> Riyonuk: rm filenaem or rm -fr directory  to delete a folder and contents or rmdir to delete empty dir
[03:45] <uu> Fraj: yes, replace vesa with nv
[03:45] <Fraj> ok
[03:46] <Fraj> You do not have the permissions necessary to save the file. Please, check that you typed the location correctly and try again
[03:46] <un_operateur> jonah1980, no no no, otherway around --  keep the router acting as a DHCP server -- but assign a ststic IP address to ubuntu
[03:46] <Fraj> it ownt let me :S what do i do?
[03:46] <un_operateur> static*
[03:46] <un_operateur> Fraj, sudo gedit /path/to/file
[03:46] <jonah1980> un_operateur, cool thanks, what do i put for subnet and default gateway settings?
[03:47] <uu> Fraj: sudo vim /etc/X11/xorg.conf, replace vim with your favorite editor :)
[03:47] <stefg> jonah1980: i just tried to ping you... i suspect port 60000 is simply closed by your ISP... he might have a 'only known ports' policy
[03:47] <un_operateur> jonah1980, I dont use gnome -- but i think this should work at your terminal -- network-admin
[03:47] <Riyonuk> pike_, it says uncompressing and 2 rows of dots, is this right?
[03:47] <pike_> Riyonuk: yeah
[03:48] <un_operateur> jonah1980, the IP address and subnet mask depend on what your router uses for it's LAN/private address
[03:48] <Riyonuk> wtf, hey theres kinda like a install screen
[03:48] <Riyonuk> its just crappy looking XD
[03:48] <un_operateur> jonah1980, best you check the router now and find out
[03:48] <xecto> cn
[03:48] <Riyonuk> Cool its installing
[03:48] <Riyonuk> this is so exciting
[03:49] <daedra_> lol what's installing?
[03:49] <pike_> Fraj: i love vim but as uu said replace that with an easier editor like nano or even gedit
[03:49] <jonah1980> un_operateur, it says subnet mask: <IP_ADDRESS>   -   but how do i find the gateway?
[03:49] <Fraj> im using vim :)
[03:49] <Riyonuk> pike_, it worked! It has a black planet on the left...
[03:49] <un_operateur> jonah1980, errm, hold up -- first, get to the router, and find out what it uses for it's LAN/private address
[03:49] <stefg> jonah1980: look at your routers docu
[03:49] <pike_> Riyonuk: it launched automatically?
[03:49] <Riyonuk> pike_, but I dont see it in Applications/Games...yeah
[03:50] <pike_> Riyonuk: it wont setup shortcuts
[03:50] <Fraj> ermm it wont let me type stuff in lol
[03:50] <jonah1980> un_operateur, what's that, the MAC address??
[03:50] <pike_> Riyonuk:  youll have to go to /home/games/tremulous or wherever you installed and type ./tremulous to run
[03:50] <un_operateur> jonah1980, no, IP address -- LAN-side IP address
[03:50] <Riyonuk> pike_, meh, thats lame
[03:51] <jonah1980> un_operateur, my static ip? that my provider gave me?
[03:51] <Riyonuk> is it multiplayer? If so I wish to play you :p
[03:51] <un_operateur> jonah1980, usually something like -- <IP_ADDRESS> / <IP_ADDRESS>
[03:51] <un_operateur> jonah1980, nope, thats the WAN-side/public IP address, you need the other one
[03:51] <Fraj> ok i chaned it now what do i do?
[03:51] <Fraj> reboot?
[03:51] <pike_> Riyonuk: ln -s ~/games/tremulous ~/Desktop/Tremulous   to make a shortcut to desktop
[03:51] <cbx33> ipconfig
[03:51] <pike_> Riyonuk: er ~/games/tremulous/tremulous i mean
[03:52] <Riyonuk> wait..what?
[03:52] <pike_> Riyonuk: id just use the file maner for now to navagate to it and then doubleclick the ln -s makes a symbolic link or a 'shortcut' to things
[03:52] <Fraj> uu
[03:52] <Fraj> pike ?
[03:52] <Fraj> riyonuk
[03:53] <Fraj> any ideas?
[03:53] <Fraj> iv changed itt o nv
[03:53] <pike_> Fraj: you saved changes
[03:53] <Fraj> do i need to reboot?
[03:53] <pike_> ?
[03:53] <Fraj> yes
[03:53] <jonah1980> un_operateur, all i can find is the static ip i've been given, which is there on router with subnet thing next to it
[03:53] <uu> Fraj: yes, reboot, or press ctrl-alt-backspace - this will kill your X-server
[03:53] <Riyonuk> pike_, ok, I made the shortcut, it has no cool icon though :p
[03:53] <Fraj> ok tanks
[03:53] <pike_> alt-ctrl-backspace or sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart
[03:54] <pike_> does it run?
[03:54] <daedra_> anyone know of a decent ncurses based music player that deals with playlists?
[03:55] <un_operateur> jonah1980, you on ubuntu now?
[03:55] <jonah1980> un_operateur, it's got the option to set a dhcp start and end address if this helps?
[03:55] <jonah1980> un_operateur, yeah edgy
[03:55] <genius314> I need help fixing my resolution
[03:55] <Riyonuk> pike_, uhh yeah, the link is broken, so I figured I would just type Tremuluous in the terminal and it says "bash: tremuluous: command not found
[03:55] <Riyonuk> "
[03:56] <un_operateur> jonah1980, type this out at your terminal -- ifconfig -a
[03:56] <pike_> Riyonuk: open a terminal then just ./tremulous
[03:56] <daedra_> !mpg321
[03:56] <ubotu> mpg321: A Free command-line mp3 player, compatible with mpg123. In component universe, is optional. Version <IP_ADDRESS> (edgy), package size 33 kB, installed size 128 kB
[03:56] <emacla> How do i use Makefiles to install software that i have downloaded?
[03:56] <daedra_> !ncurses
[03:56] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about ncurses - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[03:56] <Riyonuk> Well I navigated my way to the actual folder, is it the pic of a spider, pike_?
[03:56] <pike_> Riyonuk: it should have made a shortcut in your home dir you have to in terminal either type the full path to something or if youre in same dir ./file  to run it
[03:57] <pike_> Riyonuk: i dunno i have a very simple setup no gnome
[03:57] <Ha1> I just got my internet working. I need to install a Gaim plugin. However, there is no plugins directory in /home/myname/.gaim
[03:57] <Ha1> What do I do?
[03:57] <piiimp> where would i go to customize my 'Applications' menu.  THere's obsolete entries under 'Games' etc that I want to remove from the menu
[03:57] <Riyonuk> Ahh, pike_, I figured it out, its .x86
[03:57] <Fraj> hi im back
[03:58] <Fraj> its fixed!
[03:58] <jonah1980> un_operateur, http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/39167/
[03:58] <genius314> I tried changing my resolution to 1280x1024, but when I restarted, I had a resolution of 1280x800, and can't go up to 1024. Can anyone help?
[03:58] <Fraj> how do i change my resoulution ?
[03:58] <un_operateur> piiimp, (what a name??) -- at your terminal -- gmenu-simple-editor
[03:58] <Fraj> thank you for all your help!
[03:58] <stefg> piiimp: that's almost disturbing windows'ish... right click on the App-menu and select edit
[03:58] <Ha1> I just got my internet working. I need to install a Gaim plugin. However, there is no plugins directory in /home/myname/.gaim
[03:58] <Ha1> What do I do?
[03:58] <piiimp> thanks guys sorry if the name offends =)
[03:58] <pike_> Riyonuk: default graphics  settings are crappy youll have to go in options and scale em up once the game is running
[03:58] <Riyonuk> pike_, wow, 2min into the game and Im lost, Ok I go to Play and then what do I do?
[03:59] <daedra_> ctrl+alt+plussign cycles through resolutions
[03:59] <un_operateur> jonah1980, ok, thats well and good -- now what's the output of this -- route -n
[03:59] <Fraj> now the problem is it wont let me increase ther resoulution from 800X600 !
[03:59] <pike_> Riyonuk: play then there should be a button to toggle to "internet" servers then refresh or maybe 'retrieve list' or something
[03:59] <Ha1> I need to install a Gaim plugin. However, there is no plugins directory in /home/myname/.gaim. What do I do?
[04:00] <jonah1980> un_operateur, http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/39168/
[04:00] <Riyonuk> ok
[04:00] <genius314> Ha1: There's no plugin directory at all?
[04:00] <Fraj> pike
[04:00] <stefg> Ha1: i'd /j #gaim for that
[04:00] <Fraj> the problems fixed but now the resolution wont changed fomr 800X600!
[04:00] <pike_> Fraj: nvidia card?
[04:00] <uu> Fraj: edit the xorg.conf again - you should find Modes line
[04:00] <Ha1> Genius: Nope
[04:00] <Fraj> yeh nvidia card
[04:00] <McFlow> hello everyone!
[04:00] <McFlow> i need help concernig trouble with my alsa and oss sound anyone able to help me?
[04:00] <Fraj> whats the command again to get xorg.conf up ?
[04:00] <Ha1> Genius: I have some plugins working, though, so I know theyre there
[04:01] <stefg> !sound
[04:01] <ubotu> If you're having problems with sound, first ensure ALSA is selected, by double clicking on the volume control, then File -> Change Device (ALSA Mixer). If that fails, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Sound - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting - http://alsa.opensrc.org/index.php?page=DmixPlugin
[04:01] <uu> Fraj: oh, and you can use sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg - it would be kind of user-friendly stuff :)
[04:01] <Riyonuk> pike_, is it possible to run it not fullscreen? Like in a little screen to the side?
[04:01] <reiki> still working on this UUID thing.... blkid does not appear to function without its cache file at /etc/blkid.tab. And if the cache file is incorrect it does not appear to update .... this seems broken
[04:01] <pike_> Fraj: as uu said.  also check the wiki on installing nvidia drivers wiki.ubuntu.com
[04:01] <un_operateur> jonah1980, ok, the IP address to be used is <IP_ADDRESS>, subnet maskk: <IP_ADDRESS> and Default Gateway : <IP_ADDRESS>
[04:01] <pike_> Riyonuk: i think so it would be under options
[04:01] <Riyonuk> in the game, or in folder?
[04:02] <pike_> Riyonuk: in the game. you shouldnt have to do any more setup out of the game
[04:02] <Fraj> ok uu
[04:02] <McFlow> my problem is that alsa sound comes with a bit latency... for example in call of duty running with wine: i shoot and one second later i hear it.... its like that with every application....
[04:02] <McFlow> is it normal?
[04:02] <piiimp> i just noticed, using the 2 methods you guys told me theres a bit of a difference...  i did the right-click on applications menu and selected 'Edit Menus' and removed an entry I didn't want there, but it still shows up just doesnt have a checkmark beside it anymore.  However if I use the 'gmenu-simple-editor' command it brings up the same editor but that entry is no longer even visible...
[04:02] <Fraj> can utell me the thing so i can bring up the xorg conf
[04:02] <Fraj> the one u told me at the begining
[04:02] <Ha1> I need to install a Gaim plugin. However, there is no plugins directory in /home/myname/.gaim. What do I do?
[04:02] <genius314> Ha1: Actually I don't have a plug-in folder either. It could be in a different folder, or Gaim uses a different way to store plug-ins.
[04:02] <Morrissey> Hi! I just updated to latest SVN of beryl ... but now it wont take my buttons on the mouse ... ie: Button 17 (wich xev shows) used to enable window picker ... but now I cant set the button to "17" in beryl-settings anymore .. why?
[04:02] <pike_> McFlow: i havent had that problem
[04:03] <stefg> !xgl | Morrissey
[04:03] <ubotu> Morrissey: Compiz (compositing window manager) and XGL (X server architecture layered on top of OpenGL) - Howto at http://help.ubuntu.com/community/CompositeManager - Help in #ubuntu-xgl - See http://tinyurl.com/pw5ez for Kubuntu systems
[04:03] <Ha1> genius: Oh dear
[04:03] <genius314> Ha1: What do you need to do that requires you to access the plug-in folder?
[04:03] <Fraj> uu ?
[04:03] <Morrissey> stefg, what would that do for me?
[04:03] <Ha1> Genius: I just need to install a plugin
[04:03] <Fraj> pike how do i call the config from the terminal?
[04:03] <un_operateur> piiimp, use the right-click method and restart gnome -- the setting ought to stick then
[04:03] <genius314> Ha1: Did you look for it in the package manager?
[04:03] <stefg> Morrissey: a freindly hint to ask that in #ubuntu-xgl, beryl questions are offtopic here :-)
[04:03] <piiimp> mm ok thanks
[04:03] <uu> Fraj: sudo vim /etc/X11/xorg.conf ?
[04:04] <Fraj> thanks
[04:04] <Ha1> Genius: Look for what?
[04:04] <Morrissey> thanks then stefg  :)
[04:04] <Fraj> Modes		"1280x1024" "1024x768" "832x624" "800x600" "720x450" "720x400" "640x640" "640x480" "640x400"

[04:04] <Fraj> what do i do here?
[04:04] <Kirrus> I upgraded my laptop to Edgy, I'm now getting a lag whilst scrolling in firefox. I remember having this problem when I updated my desktop, and found a solution on the forums, but I can't find it there now. Any sugesstions (I think it was something to do do with refresh rate)
[04:05] <Ha1> [I have a similar lag, I avoid it by using pagedown :-\]
[04:05] <Fraj> kirrus
[04:05] <Riyonuk> pike_, uhh there is no options, and I selected source to internet and refresh list and it says its getting it but its taking a looong time
[04:05] <Fraj> same problem as me
[04:05] <Fraj> its ur gfx
[04:05] <Fraj> :)
[04:05] <Nibbier> Kirrus, i had similar problems with xinerama
[04:05] <genius314> Ha1: The plug-in. Look for it in the package manager.
[04:05] <Ha1> Genius:No, its written specially by a mate to get around some issues I been having
[04:05] <Fraj> uu what do i do with the modes?
[04:05] <uu> Fraj: look for DefaultDepth    - the Xserver will use Modes for that depth
[04:05] <Ha1> Ive
[04:06] <Fraj> DefaultDepth	24
[04:06] <Fraj> ok got it
[04:06] <Ha1> Genius: So I need a manual install, or to put it in the right place
[04:06] <Fraj> Depth		24
[04:06] <Fraj> 		Modes		"1280x1024" "1024x768" "832x624" "800x600" "720x450" "720x400" "640x640" "640x480" "640x400"
[04:06] <Fraj> now what uu?
[04:06] <McFlow> i have this sound latency since ive done this teamspeak how to...
[04:06] <McFlow> http://www.linux-gamers.net/modules/wiwimod/index.php?page=HOWTO+Sound
[04:06] <McFlow> teamspeak still does not work, and the sound has a latency since then....
[04:06] <McFlow> is there another way except reinstalling dapper? ty
[04:06] <genius314> Ha1: Ok. Well I don't know, then. I'm going to go look for the folder, but I might not find it.
[04:06] <Ha1> Genius: Thanks
[04:07] <uu> Fraj: and you are at stuck at 800x600 ? maybe monitor section, the sync ranges are too narrow.. better go for sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg and answer all the questions
[04:08] <Fraj> ok
[04:08] <Fraj> thanks
[04:09] <Kream> hi all, what is  (realistically) the maximum size required for /usr partition ? I'm making an LTSP server on a machine with 320gb of space - I want to dedicate the maximum amount of space to the users' home directories, but will probably also be doing some development work on it
[04:09] <piiimp> oh one other question, is it not possible to share the sound device with an app using ALSA and OSS simultaneously?
[04:10] <LameBMX> <-- just got done reinstalling over sound ... but i learned the issue
[04:10] <Ha1> Genius: Any luck?
[04:10] <daedra_> q
[04:11] <genius314> Ha1: Check in /usr/lib/Gaim. It might be what you're looking for.
[04:11] <Ha1> k
[04:11] <Ha1> ty
[04:12] <piiimp> example... I want to play the game 'Savage' and use 'TeamSpeak' while playing.  I can only have sound working in one or the other, not both at once...
[04:12] <wheels3572> Can anyone help me with a sound issue im having please.  Read this URL this will better explain my issue http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/39117/
[04:12] <M0E^lnx> hey guys.. I'm trying to install edgy... and I'm at the mount point section... I've specified the / the /home and swap... but when I click forward, it says no root file system....
[04:12] <Theodor> I need help installing Ubuntu please.
[04:13] <Sainouhe> I need help getting rid of my ex.
[04:13] <paitart> hi! how do i install the proxim orinoco gold card (model Number 8420-wd) on my ubuntu 6.06?
[04:13] <Kirrus> "/" is your root... have you specified a bootable partition?
[04:14] <lumaQQ> having problems with converting MP3 to OGG
[04:14] <lumaQQ> ~~ any help
[04:14] <Kirrus> sorry Moe^lnx: "/" is your root... have you specified a bootable partition?
[04:14] <genius314> Ok, I'm stuck here with a widescreen resolution, but my monitor isn't widescreen. In other words, I have 1280x800, and I want 1280x1024. Can anyone help?
[04:14] <alexcs786> waw! so many people use ubuntu!
[04:14] <Jussi01> Hei all, how do I open a port in ubuntu(for bittorrent)??
[04:14] <Kirrus> Jussi01: do you have any firewalls installed?
[04:15] <Jussi01> yeah, but not on at the moment - firestarter
[04:15] <Jussi01> arent all the ports closed by default?
[04:15] <Theodor> Guys, I need help in installing Ubunut. I'm currently in choosing which partition to use.
[04:15] <Theodor> Any ideas?
[04:15] <Kirrus> Jussi01: firestarter runs in the background unless you specifically tell it not to, have you opened the control panel, and stopped it?
[04:15] <Theodor> I have 3 partitions, one for windows, one free and the other to save data on.
[04:15] <Jussi01> oh, no I havent
[04:15] <alexcs786> Theodor, how big is your HD?
[04:16] <Kirrus> Jussi01: try that
[04:16] <rocknrolf77> Anyone who knows what ports to open for gaim/msn?
[04:16] <Theodor> It's 60 gb. I have 30 for windows "First driver", 20 for second driver "the one I want to install Ubuntu on", and 3 gb to store my data files when I'm using windows.
[04:17] <Theodor> Currently, it's telling me that I need to choose partitions to mount / and swap
[04:17] <Theodor> but no idea what to choose.
[04:17] <lumaQQ>
[04:17] <paitart> hi! how do i install the proxim orinoco gold card (model Number 8420-wd) on my ubuntu 6.06?
[04:17] <alexcs786> delete the 20gb partition
[04:17] <alexcs786> create one with the same size of your RAM memory
[04:18] <Jussi01>  Kirrus: ok, that sorts it, now how do I permanently open the port?
[04:18] <genius314> Theodor: I think you aren't supposed to partition it until you are installing Ubuntu. I did, and I can't use 20GB of space.
[04:18] <alexcs786> flag it as swap
[04:18] <Theodor> How can I do that from within the Ubuntu installation ?
[04:18] <jonah1980> un_operateur, hi again, sorry chat disconnected when i rebooted router
[04:18] <michaelpo> how do you make gaim auto join a # of certain server?
[04:18] <jonah1980> un_operateur, so will i have to put a different ip address and settings if i switch router/modem off and then on again?
[04:18] <alexcs786> you are at the live CD or DVD, right?
[04:18] <Theodor> DVD
[04:19] <Theodor> I can go back to where I choose what method I ned.
[04:19] <alexcs786> so, quit the instalation program
[04:19] <Theodor> need*
[04:19] <jonah1980> un_operateur, the shieldsup website test is still saying my 60000 port is closed!!
[04:19] <Theodor> then ?
[04:19] <dllh> getting a "no route to host" error when trying to ssh from one ubuntu box on my network to another; I could connect last week!
[04:19] <alexcs786> and use a partitioner
[04:19] <alexcs786> I guess Qparted is available
[04:19] <Theodor> I need to partition the free drive, yes?
[04:19] <alexcs786> yes
[04:19] <Kirrus> Jussi01: OK, if you go into the firestarter control panel, look around for a tab of ports... sorry, I havent used firestarter in ages: use firehol instead...
[04:19] <alexcs786> to create a swap file
[04:19] <Theodor> How much do I need for the swap file ?
[04:19] <genius314> Ok has anyone ever been able to configure a 1280x1024 resolution on two monitors with two ATI cards?
[04:19] <alexcs786> is your computer a laptop?
[04:20] <Theodor> yes
[04:20] <alexcs786> so, another use to the swap partition is hybernation
[04:20] <Theodor> Okay
[04:20] <Kirrus> Jussi01: you need to define a set of open ports, the range 6881-6999 normally suffices
[04:20] <Theodor> but there are more options like: /home and the like. I don't have to specify these ?
[04:20] <alexcs786> so, Alt+F2
[04:21] <artbird309> Theodor: http://gparted.sourceforge.net/
[04:21] <un_operateur> jonah1980, you should be able to set the IP address once and forget about it -- rebooting the router should have no effect
[04:21] <Theodor> arieler176, thanks mate.
[04:21] <alexcs786> no, unless you want to put your personal files in a separate partition
[04:21] <Jussi01> Kirrus:thanks sorted now :)
[04:21] <un_operateur> jonah1980, are you sure port 60000 on the router is forwarded to the right IP address (<IP_ADDRESS>, i think) ?
[04:21] <Theodor> So the only to things to worry about are the / root and swap files.
[04:21] <alexcs786> yep
[04:22] <genius314> Is there anyone who can help with my resolution problem?
[04:22] <emacla> How do i remove the "read-only" from a file trough the terminal?
[04:22] <Theodor> Will that program work on windows ?
[04:22] <FunnyLookinHat> emacla, chmod +rw file

[04:22] <mojojojo__> hi... The mouse sometimes stops to work in edgy... How can I deal with it?
[04:23] <artbird309> Theodor: it is a live cd so you burn it and then boot for it like ubuntu cd
[04:23] <mojojojo__> <bloody edgy, all it brought is troubles>
[04:23] <emacla> FunnyLookinHat: Thanks
[04:24] <jonah1980> un_operateur, ah cool, i still had the static ip in there, thanks that has opened it up now!
[04:25] <un_operateur> jonah1980, :)
[04:25] <emacla> How do i "log in as root"?
[04:25] <LjL`_> !root > emacla
[04:25] <un_operateur> emacla, you shouldn't
[04:25] <emacla> Why not?
[04:26] <emacla> un_operateur: Why not?
[04:26] <jonah1980> un_operateur, now it does say i can have upto 20 mapped ports? how many should i have, do i just put start and end address same or do i open up 20?
[04:26] <wheels3572> emacla, it's not a safe procedure to do anything as root.
[04:26] <un_operateur> emacla, because *nix is designed in such a way that if a user requires superuser privileges, he can assume then via sudo
[04:26] <wheels3572> emacla, 99.9% of what you need to do can be done iwthout root
[04:26] <jonah1980> un_operateur, and in gtorrent do just put the 20ports i've opened?
[04:27] <FunnyLookinHat> awww come on fellas...   how much damage could he really do with root access?   ; )
[04:27] <emacla> I can't change the permissions for a file, because it says root is the woner, and i'm not root.
[04:27] <Genscher> i have a problem with the live cd ubuntu 6.06 LTS desktop version
[04:27] <un_operateur> jonah1980, usually the application only requires one port to be open .. but torrents(horrid things) have always been different
[04:27] <Genscher> :)
[04:27] <un_operateur> jonah1980, I'd check with the docs
[04:27] <FunnyLookinHat> emacla, then do this:   sudo chmod +rw filename
[04:27] <stefg> emacla: sudo chown ....
[04:28] <Genscher> the computer won't start ubuntu :(
[04:28] <Genscher> sometimes it hangs on the zlib_fs error, sometimes a bit later
[04:28] <stefg> !doesn't work
[04:28] <ubotu> Please elaborate, your question or issue may not seem clear or detailed enough for people to help you. Please give more detailed information, errors, steps, and possibly configuration files (use the !pastebin to avoid flooding the channel)
[04:28] <jonah1980> un_operateur, ok thanks for all your help (once again!!) bye for now, no doubt i'll speak to you again
[04:28] <jonah1980> ;)
[04:28] <un_operateur> jonah1980, yw :)
[04:28] <stefg> Genscher: yu CD is probably bad
[04:28] <Theodor> What file extention to use for a swap drive? ext3 or something ?
[04:29] <un_operateur> Theodor, no file system -- swap uses swap
[04:29] <Genscher> so i think the problem could also be that i have some harddisks with XFS and in need of I2O driver
[04:29] <Genscher> (and a bad table)
[04:29] <Theodor> un_operateur, I'm partitioning my drive using Gparted
[04:29] <mwe> Theodor: you don't use a file extension. create a swap partition
[04:29] <Genscher> so what i need is a option that ubuntu doesn't try to automount my HD's
[04:29] <emacla> FunnyLookinHat: Doesn't work. I downloaded XAMPP for Linux (LAMPP), and i can't edit php.ini
[04:29] <Theodor> How do I do that using Gparted? I'm currently using it within Ubuntu installation.
[04:29] <Genscher> is there some way to preventz automounting?
[04:30] <un_operateur> Theodor, a swap parititon uses the swap file system -- usually ubuntu selects that automatically
[04:30] <Theodor> is it Linux-swap ?
[04:30] <mwe> Theodor: yes
[04:30] <Theodor> kay, thanks,
[04:30] <FunnyLookinHat> emacla, try this:   sudo chmod 666 php.ini
[04:30] <Theodor> I was told that I need to create 2 partition. One for swap and the other for /
[04:30] <alexcs786> that's it
[04:30] <mwe> Genscher: noauto under options for the partition in /ets/fstab
[04:31] <un_operateur> Theodor, at the bare minimum, thats what you need, yes
[04:31] <Theodor> un_operateur, what FileSystem for the drive where I will install my Ubuntu?
[04:31] <Genscher> mwe: i can't change /etc/fstab on the live-cd :)
[04:31] <Theodor> Create as: Logical Partition .. Filesystem ?
[04:31] <mwe> Genscher: no
[04:31] <wheels3572> Is anyone here good with figuring out a sound issue.  My problem is apparently my onboard sound is over riding my soundcard EVEN THOUGH my onboard sound is shut OFF in the bios.
[04:31] <un_operateur> Theodor, ext3 seems to be the norm for most ubuntu users nowadays
[04:31] <mwe> Genscher: why must it not mount your partitions?
[04:31] <emacla> FunnyLookinHat: Hurray! I love you.
[04:31] <un_operateur> Theodor, go with ext3
[04:31] <Theodor> Do you have time to explain why? or should I just go with it?
[04:32] <Genscher> mwe: because they have a bad XFS table and crash on mounting.....
[04:32] <FunnyLookinHat> emacla, heh...  google "linux file permissions tutorial" if you wanna learn more about that command
[04:32] <Genscher> i need to fix tghe filessystem before
[04:32] <Genscher> *the
[04:32] <straterra> LolZ! Where can I get Slackware?
[04:32] <un_operateur> wheels3572, errm, delete the ~/.asounrc* files and run asoundconf again
[04:32] <alexcs786> www.slackware.org
[04:32] <stefg> Theodor: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation is worth a read :-)
[04:32] <Theodor> Okay now I have New partition #1 and #2
[04:33] <Theodor> I quit Gparted and I continue?
[04:33] <wheels3572> un_operateur, ok same issue as lastnight I had no definite fix lol.  so I will delete just that
[04:33] <Theodor> or should I do something else?
[04:33] <straterra> Can I run Slackware on Windows?
[04:33] <un_operateur> Theodor, ext3 is probably the most stable atm .. very widely used and supported
[04:33] <Theodor> Okay, I did choose that extention,
[04:33] <un_operateur> ext2 is sorry -- ext3 adds on extra functionality to ext2
[04:33] <M0E^lnx> Theodor: don't forget to hit the "apply changes button" becore you exit
[04:33] <Theodor> yeah, I just noticed it ;p
[04:34] <wheels3572> un_operateur, what's the correct syntax to do that ?
[04:34] <Theodor> meh, I got an error
[04:34] <LameBMX> un_operateur, found it in the forums .. i wasnt in the sound group lol
[04:34] <Theodor> now I have 26 gb of unallocated
[04:34] <jacquesmerde> which is the best repo for up-do-date flash, not wanting to risk enabling backports...
[04:34] <stefg> Genscher, you need this first: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation
[04:34] <un_operateur> wheels3572, errm, -- rm ~/.asound* -- and then asoundconf --list
[04:34] <M0E^lnx> Theodor: you need to create the partitions in that "unallocated" space
[04:34] <un_operateur> wheels3572, errm, make that  asoundconf --help
[04:35] <eztk> is it possible to resize partitions (like partition magic) using gparted ?? whilst using the live CD or while partitions are unmounted
[04:35] <un_operateur> LameBMX, :) glad it works now :)
[04:35] <artbird309> eztk: yes
[04:35] <Theodor> FreeSpace following should be 0 or the remaining free space?
[04:35] <piiimp> I want to play the game 'Savage' and use 'TeamSpeak' while playing.  I can only have sound working in one or the other, not both at once...  can audio be shared with ALSA and OSS or between only ALSA and ALSA or only OSS and OSS?
[04:35] <jacquesmerde> eztk: i think thats precisely why gparted was put on the livecd
[04:35] <eztk> eztk: cool, i have 90gb of space unallocated.. want to allocate to / and /home
[04:36] <Lidys> Salut
[04:36] <eztk> jacquesmerde: i thought so, but wasnt sure if i could add space to existing partitions
[04:36] <j_ack> genius314 ?
[04:36] <Theodor> What does Round to cylinders do ?
[04:36] <un_operateur> piiimp, the sound device is usually shared -- it's probably the game that's locking it

[04:37] <LameBMX> how does one go about adding suggestions to authors of a wiki?
[04:37] <jacquesmerde> eztk: i don't think you can resize partitions without formatting everything on them
[04:37] <genius314> j_ack: What?
[04:37] <eztk> jacquesmerde: damn :(
[04:37] <j_ack> genius314, you have a wacom-tablet ?
[04:37] <un_operateur> wheels3572, errm, do you know which one you want to set as the default?
[04:37] <eztk> jacquesmerde: thats a shame...
[04:37] <paitart> hi! how do i install the proxim orinoco gold card (model Number 8420-wd) on my ubuntu 6.06?
[04:37] <genius314> j_ack: Yes. Graphire 3.
[04:38] <wheels3572> un_operateur, Yeah my CA0106
[04:38] <j_ack> genius314, have you configure it
[04:38] <eztk> jacquesmerde: is there a commercial package around like partition magic that could resize ext3 partitions on the fly ?
[04:38] <un_operateur> wheels3572, then you use  -- asoundconf set-default-card CA0106
[04:38] <wheels3572> un_operateur, that seems to be the 2nd option though.  from what im seeing
[04:38] <kane77> I have a bit intricate question... I want to have a multi language ubuntu... so for me it'd be in english, but for my dad it'd be in my native language... is it possible?? (how hard it'd be?)

[04:40] <jikanter> ok, use sudo and your first user password to login as root

[04:40] <jikanter> That should work
[04:40] <wheels3572> un_operateur, ok that's done
[04:40] <Riyonuk> How come firefox keeps closing by itself? Its starting to get annoying
[04:40] <un_operateur> wheels3572, should be done now
[04:40] <stefg> Riyonuk: FF2.0 isn't as stable in Edgy as it should be

[04:41] <emacla> jikanter: How.......?
[04:41] <wheels3572> un_operateur, im trying alsamixergui and it's giving me a snd_ctl_open device error
[04:41] <jikanter> emacla: Do you know how to open a terminal?
[04:41] <j_ack> genius314, sorry for my bad english, do you want to configure your tablet
[04:41] <emacla> Yes
[04:41] <Genscher> stefg: it's not the first time i install linux or even ubuntu....
[04:41] <genius314> j_ack: Yes.
[04:41] <Riyonuk> Thats pretty much it, Im just scrolling down and it closes, so I reopen it and it asks if I want to restore my session, also GAIM does the same thing, and pages take forever to load >_>
[04:41] <jikanter> ok, do that, then type in sudo su
[04:41] <un_operateur> wheels3572, ok -- open up gnome-sound-properties and select the device for default audio playback
[04:41] <Theodor> If I don't want to touch my other drives, I should keep them empty?
[04:41] <Theodor> I'm currently choose which drive and stuff.
[04:41] <jikanter> it should ask you for a password
[04:41] <Genscher> stefg: and that link doesn't help for disabling automounting for live cd
[04:42] <j_ack> genius314, ok, at first install the package wacom-tools.
[04:42] <Riyonuk> stefg, so is 6.10 like beta or something? Cause I never had this many problems with 5.10

[04:42] <stefg> Genscher: there was a wrong link in my copy-buffer... i wanted you to do a CD integrity check first. I think your CD isn't alright
[04:42] <un_operateur> Theodor, if you have multiple drive, ubuntu doesnt touch them unless you ask it to -- BUT CHECK YOUR CONFIGURATION and DUOBLE CHECK IT
[04:42] <un_operateur> s/duoble/double/i
[04:42] <emacla> jikanter: I think so, but i can't still view the folders.
[04:43] <Theodor> I'm in a page where you choose. It's presenting 4 partitions, 2 of which I'm going to use for Ubuntu, but the other 2 have windows
[04:43] <jikanter> ok, where are the folders?
[04:43] <wheels3572> un_operateur, does it make a difference that im running Xubuntu?  Look at this url http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/39177/
[04:43] <un_operateur> Theodor, should be ok to continue .. but CHECK and verify that those are the settings you do want

[04:46] <Genscher> mwe: hm, i deleted "quiet" and followed the screen....but i seems to hang at the point where it stands "booting INIT 2.86"
[04:46] <un_operateur> Theodor, it means that that parition is not to be loaded when ubuntu starts -- you should probably go back and select it's mount point to be /mnt/sata5 or somesuch
[04:46] <Genscher> sometimes a few lines above that
[04:46] <rawrbbq> my ubuntu system crashed, and I got an error log, now what should I do?
[04:46] <Genscher> that's the weird thing...
[04:46] <Genscher> maybe you're right, that the cd's are bad
[04:46] <jikanter> rawrbbq: boot from the live cd
[04:46] <mwe> Genscher: are you sure it's because it can't mount that partition?
[04:46] <stefg> rawrbbq: what about reading it?
[04:47] <j_ack> genius314, they are in the repository, online.
[04:47] <Theodor> if I choosed /media/sda5, it won't remove windows?
[04:47] <rawrbbq> jikanter: uh, why? it starts up oky
[04:47] <jikanter> oh
[04:47] <rawrbbq> stefg: hum
[04:47] <Theodor> becuase it's on the partition where I have windows installed.
[04:47] <jikanter> rawrbbq: nevermind
[04:47] <artbird309> Theodor: no
[04:47] <Theodor> Great. Thanks.
[04:47] <genius314> j_ack: ok.
[04:47] <emacla> jikanter: can't get it to work. I still dont have permission.
[04:47] <Theodor> what about media/sda1 ?
[04:47] <Genscher> hm, that's what i assumed when using knoppix there is a "can't mount no unknown point (0,0)" error (something like that)
[04:47] <Theodor> same thing?
[04:47] <mwe> Genscher: because it's just supposed to give a mount error and continue I think
[04:47] <jikanter> emacla: hmm, are you root?
[04:47] <un_operateur> Theodor, no, mounting a drive is not formatting it
[04:47] <Sainouhe> wage war on the machine don' t by jolly ranchers!

[04:50] <genius314> j_ack: ok, now what?
[04:51] <jikanter> emacla: now send me a message, to confirm that you are there
[04:51] <Genscher> mwe: one time, it hanged at the zlib_fs error, the other time at the "bootin INIT 2.86" message
[04:51] <Genscher> etc...
[04:51] <Theodor> Kay, finally I'm installing Ubuntu ... I've been having problems since yesterday ;p
[04:51] <stefg> rawrbbq: hmmm... so your gnome is screwed. what exactly does 'my computer crashed' mean
[04:51] <DarthVader> what's odd is that I didn't change anything ... it's ubuntu 6.10 PPC
[04:51] <rawrbbq> stefg: I dunno =X
[04:51] <tevfikt> Hey
[04:51] <rawrbbq> stefg: what can I do?
[04:51] <wheels3572> un_operateur, Yeah there is.  Autodetect, VIA 8233, VIA8233, ALSA - Advanced Linux Sound Architecture, ESD-Enlightment Sound Daemon, OSS-Open Sound System
[04:51] <j_ack> genius314, i paste you my xorg.conf, one moment.
[04:51] <DarthVader> any suggestion(s)?
[04:52] <stefg> rawrbbq: what was the last time it worked, what happended, what isn't working now?
[04:52] <mwe> Genscher: odd. well I'd do the md5sum for the CD. somtimes bad CDs fail at different points
[04:52] <jikanter> emacla: did that work?
[04:52] <artmann> i heard , that nowadays  the LD_LIBRARY_PATH is obsolete. is this right for ubuntu?
[04:52] <interfear> Safe graphics mode worked with 6.06, however it will not work with 6.10 cd, anyone know what this could be? Also 6.10 main boot screen (where you see the beige ubuntu logo / menu ) looks nothing buy gray and all messed up
[04:52] <Genscher> mwe: it's one of our university servers... :(
[04:52] <fryfrog> Hi, I would like my ubuntu server to be able to send outgoing mail, but I am not sure what to start looking into to achieve this, mainly cause i'm not so good with mail.  Any suggestions?
[04:52] <j_ack> genius314, http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/39178/
[04:52] <Genscher> mwe: ok, i'll try to burn them here at home
[04:52] <rawrbbq> stefg: it is working now, it worked before it crashed a couple of mins ago and the screen just turned black
[04:53] <Genscher> mwe: thank you for your advice and time!
[04:53] <mwe> Genscher: check the md5sum of the cd to verify it
[04:53] <Genscher> i'm doing it in a few moments :)
[04:53] <jikanter> emacla: I want to help you, but I don't want to fill the channel with junk, so if you can find the private chat I have set up, that would be great
[04:53] <Genscher> i'll be back then
[04:53] <stefg> rawrbbq: could be a hardware problem like bad ram, dying hd, overheating probs... get a termianl and type acpi -V to see your temps
[04:54] <LameBMX> allrighty time for a reboot
[04:54] <stefg> rawrbbq: scratch acpi -V.... wrong distro :-)
[04:54] <rawrbbq> stefg: it worked
[04:54] <DarthVader> but, I can log from the text console and use startx ...
[04:54] <rawrbbq> stefg: had 52 C on thermal 1 and 2 the rest 40 and 42
[04:54] <rawrbbq> stefg: I doubt it is the temp =/
[04:54] <pike_> fryfrog: might start https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Postfix
[04:54] <DarthVader> and the virtual console 7 is working
[04:54] <j_ack> genius314 ?
[04:54] <stefg> rawrbbq: ok, so your box is cool 'nuff
[04:54] <jikanter> emacla_: do you know how to right-click?
[04:54] <genius314> j_ack: What does the line "mode "relative"" mean?
[04:55] <rawrbbq> stefg: yeah, I would say that
[04:55] <stefg> rawrbbq: bad ram? dying hd?
[04:55] <tevfikt> How can i use PGP key in my source.lst?
[04:55] <rawrbbq> stefg: hum, my comp is pretty new, bought it a month ago(laptop)
[04:55] <fryfrog> pike_: isn't exim4 installed by default, for use with mail?
[04:55] <stefg> rawrbbq: premium brand or el cheapo?
[04:55] <emacla_> jikanter: Something must be wrong with my Xchat. I test again.
[04:56] <rawrbbq> stefg: what do you mean? the brand of the laptop?
[04:56] <artbird309> rawrbbq: yes
[04:56] <tony_> BUENAS
[04:56] <stefg> yup.. isit a big name? o
[04:56] <rawrbbq> stefg: it's not a big name
[04:56] <Riyonuk> Yup, Firefox just closes on its own...
[04:56] <pike_> fryfrog: its possible on new version it is. im a few distupgrades back
[04:56] <rawrbbq> stefg: and there have been problems with it on windows
[04:56] <fryfrog> ah, okay i spose i'll find out :)
[04:57] <rawrbbq> stefg: but that was due to drivers I think
[04:57] <jikanter> emacla: do you have an aim/icq account?
[04:57] <stefg> rawrbbq: then i'd run the memtest86 from the boot menu overnight. then you know what's up with the ram
[04:57] <j_ack> genius314 , mode relative have an behavior like a normal Mouse, so you can use it at any place at your tablet
[04:57] <McFlow> can anyone help me with a sound problem? :)
[04:57] <genius314> j_ack: Ok, I think that's what I want.
[04:57] <rawrbbq> stefg: ok, how do I do that? Do I have to boot up from the ubuntu-cd?
[04:57] <Roger_The_Bum> McFlow: a lack of sound?
[04:57] <jikanter> McFlow: what type of problem?
[04:57] <emacla_> jikanter: I can see your messages.
[04:57] <genius314> j_ack: And that's all?
[04:58] <jikanter> emacla_: can you respond?
[04:58] <j_ack> genius314 , moment
[04:58] <stefg> rawrbbq: either from CD, but a standard install has this as a boot.-option, too
[04:58] <McFlow> my alsa sound has a latency of 1 second..... you know what i mean?

[05:00] <StyXman> TooR4u: just /join into it, but better talk to chanserv about it

[05:01] <j_ack> genius314 , do you know what i mean?
[05:01] <emacla_> StyXman: How do i register?
[05:01] <jikanter> emacla: forget it.  type in chown root /var/<whatever
[05:01] <genius314> j_ack: You turned the line for "configured mouse" into a comment, right?
[05:01] <TooR4u> ok how to set the topic for the chanal?
[05:01] <theblue> pike_: That'd so it
[05:01] <TooR4u> chanel*
[05:01] <StyXman> emacla_: talk to nickserv
[05:01] <Roger_The_Bum> TooR4u: /topic

[05:01] <pike_> theblue: ah nice thx
[05:01] <theblue> pike_: You could try aumix to control the volume.
[05:01] <TooR4u> ohh thank u ....
[05:01] <emacla> StyXman: ...? Explain please.
[05:01] <jikanter> emacla: where /var/whatever is the file your are trying to adjust
[05:01] <ente> hey im new here
[05:01] <StyXman> emacla: /msg nickserv help
[05:02] <j_ack> genius314 , do you use a  ps2 mouse?
[05:02] <theblue> ente: Welcome!
[05:02] <genius314> j_ack: no
[05:02] <j_ack> genius314 , ok
[05:02] <jikanter> emacla: now try to edit the file
[05:02] <emacla> file?
[05:03] <emacla> folder.
[05:03] <jikanter> emacla: are you trying to move the folder?
[05:03] <ente> what do you think would be better for a newbe drapper or edgy???
[05:03] <emacla> jikanter: no, open it.
[05:03] <jikanter> ente: dapper
[05:03] <theblue> ente: Dapper.
[05:03] <jikanter> emacla: ok, type in cd /var/*
[05:03] <genius314> j_ack: Do I put the line "option 'corepointer'" in the eraser section, or in the section that I want?
[05:03] <ente> okay and where are the big differents between these both
[05:03] <artbird309> ente: edgy
[05:03] <ente> ?
[05:04] <theblue> ente: Dapper is more stable, it's been around longer, and more bugs have been worked out of it.
[05:04] <jikanter> ente: Dapper. No question about it.  You get longer support.
[05:04] <theblue> ente: Edgy has some newer software, and there's a good deal of difference under the hood, but that's about it.  I recommend Dapper.
[05:04] <ente> i see, so thats the only difference
[05:04] <theblue> I may be oversimplifying, but dapper is still a good idea.
[05:05] <j_ack> genius314 , you can do it by any one of the three inputdevises, i have it at eraser
[05:05] <genius314> j_ack: ok.
[05:05] <ente> okay thanks
[05:05] <jikanter> I totally agree with theblue, ente: go with dapper.  Everything works correctly, and it is the easiest to use.
[05:05] <Plinty> has anyone managed to compile anjuta ide from cvs snapshot? the autogen.sh requires for gdl-0.7.0 or higher, but I found when googling that the most recent version of gdl is 0.6.1
[05:06] <genius314> j_ack: Is there more?
[05:06] <emacla> jikanter: Nope. This is the message i get when i clicks at the folder: "The folder contents could not be displayed. You do not have permissions necessary to view the contents of 'mysql'".
[05:06] <j_ack> genius314 , restart your computer
[05:06] <ente> dapper is the 6.06 version
[05:06] <ente> ?
[05:06] <genius314> j_ack: ok.
[05:06] <artbird309> ente: yes
[05:06] <StyXman> ente: yeap
[05:06] <ente> ok thanks!!! i give drapper a try
[05:06] <ente> dapper
[05:07] <Riyonuk> Which version is Dapper, like the number?
[05:07] <McFlow> jikanter: my sound comes uot with one second of latency
[05:07] <Riyonuk> Dapper is the best?
[05:07] <LjL> Ubotu, tell Riyonuk about dapper | Riyonuk, see the private message from Ubotu
[05:08] <emacla> How do i log in as root?
[05:08] <systest> Ok, I get there is no "root" account.  So ho do I get to single user mode at boot?
[05:08] <StyXman> emacla: you don't; use sudo
[05:08] <LjL> Ubotu, tell emacla about root | emacla, see the private message from Ubotu
[05:08] <LjL> systest: recovery mode, from the grub menu
[05:08] <buis01> greetings
[05:08] <Genscher> mwe: back :) the cd passed al md5 checks
[05:08] <Zaggynl> Anyone knows if it is possible to get the gimp-deweirdifier plugin for the gimp in ubuntu?
[05:09] <buis01> how do you view a list of commands that you previously used in unix and how do you remove does list of commands?
[05:09] <Genscher> and of course ubuntu live cd loaded fine (as well as knoppix)
[05:09] <systest> LjL: perhaps I've missed something.  Single user mode asks for the root password.
[05:09] <stefg> Genscher: ok, one point to rule out... 64bit-System?
[05:09] <Genscher> too bad that they didn't load on our server
[05:09] <StyXman> buis01: dependes on the shell
[05:09] <LjL> buis01: cat ~/.bash_history
[05:09] <j_ack> genius314 ?
[05:09] <buis01> I know if you just use the up arrow you get the last command : StyXman
[05:10] <LjL> systest: it's really asking for the user password, i believe... anyway, if recovery doesn't work because you messed up with sudoers or something, you can always boot with "init=/bin/sh"
[05:10] <genius314> j_ack: Ok, it works. Thanks.
[05:10] <j_ack> genius314 ,ok.
[05:10] <StyXman> buis01: then it's more likely bash. LjL told you about .bash_history
[05:10] <buis01> LjL: how do I clear that list from the command line?
[05:10] <Theodor> woohoo
[05:10] <Theodor> I'm using Ubuntu :>
[05:10] <LjL> Ubotu, tell buis01 about cli | buis01, see the private message from Ubotu
[05:10] <Theodor> Owh yeah baby.
[05:10] <systest> LjL: not on my box, it asks for the root pass or "ctrl-d to continue".  Kind of defeats the purpose.
[05:11] <Genscher> stefg: no. it's a 2-cpu Athlon-XP (on TYAN board) syste, using 5 HDs (4 SCSI in a RAID with some adaptec controler, 1 IDE) using XFS filesystem. the 4 SCSI HDs are damaged (can't be mounted)
[05:11] <Genscher> (at least i can't login when i boot from them)
[05:11] <genius314> Does anyone know where I can find the specs for a Compaq Presario MV700 monitor?
[05:11] <LjL> systest: well, i haven't used it in a long while
[05:11] <Theodor> now to configuration ...
[05:11] <StyXman> buis01: I think you can' t unless you edit the file. see "man bash"
[05:11] <theblue> Ubuntu membership cards?
[05:11] <stefg> Genscher: this is not so uncommon that... hmmm...
[05:11] <Genscher> (i get some weird libc.so.6 relocation error and can't login)
[05:11] <systest> LjL: np, thanks for the reply,  I'll try it again and feed it the privileged users password.
[05:11] <Theodor> Okay fellas. now I need software help.
[05:12] <Genscher> that's why i tried to use live cd's to get the data
[05:12] <DarthVader> ok figured it out .. looks like my motherboard battery is dying, thus the time was 1904 ... 9_9
[05:12] <DarthVader> bye
[05:12] <Theodor> I need these: C++, Java, Php, mysql, apache server, something like visio, burning dvd/cd software.
[05:12] <buis01> LjL: how can I tell what shell I'm using?
[05:12] <Genscher> stefg: our server went down a an unknown reason and that error appears after the restart :(
[05:12] <Genscher> a=for
[05:13] <stefg> Genscher, can you fsck your root-fs from the CD?
[05:13] <pike_> Theodor: well there are good guides in wiki for java php and mysql. the burning app you want something like nero?
[05:13] <Riyonuk> :o
[05:13] <LjL> buis01: try "help", though i think there is a proper way that i don't remember
[05:13] <Riyonuk> Does Dapper have the wireless settings? Thats like the only way to get internet to work for me
[05:14] <Theodor> yeah anything.
[05:14] <Riyonuk> Does Dapper include wireless settings? Or is that only in Edgy?
[05:14] <Riyonuk> I thought Dapper was 6.06? It says its 6.06.1
[05:14] <Riyonuk> >_>
[05:14] <pike_> Theodor: i really like k3b its a good all around burining app
[05:14] <LjL> Riyonuk: 6.06.1 includes some bug fixes
[05:14] <Theodor> aight, time to download.
[05:14] <genius314> j_ack: Now when I use the scroll wheel, It scrolls in the opposite direction.
[05:14] <Theodor> how can I configure my Ubuntu?
[05:14] <Genscher> stefg: the problem is, that none of the live cd's was able to load the kernel....grub/lilo loaded, then i choosed one of the options and the HW checking started
[05:14] <stefg> Riyonuk: Ubuntu XP Service Pack 1 :-)
[05:14] <Theodor> I would like to take a look on the configuration files.
[05:14] <Genscher> it never finished them
[05:14] <Riyonuk> So which do I get? Im very confused, Dapper better come with wireless settings
[05:14] <accept_> How can I connect to a wireless network? I have the card the driver and all
[05:15] <Theodor> And why do I have on my desktop the partition where Microsoft Windows is installed ?
[05:15] <stefg> Genscher: SMP-System....
[05:15] <Genscher> yes
[05:15] <accept> echo
[05:15] <LjL> Riyonuk, Dapper is probably a good choice.
[05:15] <Riyonuk> Im trying to get it now
[05:15] <LjL> Ubotu, tell Riyonuk about edgy | Riyonuk, see the private message from Ubotu
[05:16] <Genscher> stefg: is tha bad?
[05:16] <Genscher> *that
[05:16] <LjL> Riyonuk: you can look at the specs to see which features were added in Edgy, and see if there's any you need
[05:16] <m0dY> hello, in a chroot'd environment, could i make a certain dir available inside the chroot without copying it ?
[05:16] <j_ack> genius314 , ok, so you must set the option of this feature of Absolute
[05:16] <stefg> Genscher: any errors which could help determining *where* the boting stops?
[05:16] <LjL> Riyonuk: of course, besides the listed features, there's new versions of some packages as well. but that shouldn't be a problem with dapper, unless you absolutely need some particular version of a package that's only in edgy
[05:16] <genius314> j_ack: What do you mean?
[05:17] <Riyonuk> All I need to know is if it has that option to change wireless settings, System > Prefrences > Networking > Wireless Connection
[05:17] <Genscher> stefg: each live cd stoped at different locations and even ubuntu cd hanged at different locations. (i reseted 5 times and it hanged at 4 different locations)
[05:17] <xiko> is there a way to copy my entire installation of ubuntu from one hd to another? Both are plugged in and im running this from livecd.
[05:18] <Genscher> stefg: but all started lilo/grub
[05:18] <Genscher> choosing the options worked fine
[05:18] <j_ack> genius314 , you have the Option "Relative" , so you must set it to "Absolute"
[05:18] <Riyonuk> Ok Im downloading, says it will take 4 hours >_>
[05:18] <pike_> xiko: well you could dd if=/dev/hda1 of=/dev/hdb1  or something mayeb
[05:18] <Allman> hi all
[05:18] <Riyonuk> Once Im done downloading the iso, how do I burn it?
[05:18] <genius314> j_ack: Ok.
[05:19] <Allman> someon know how to see an USB dialup modem?
[05:19] <stefg> Genscher: SMP systems are always a bit tricky with Live-CDs... Dual K7....  Actually ubuntu isn't such a bad option to try .. smp is enabled by default..
[05:19] <LjL> Riyonuk: depends... what system are you on?
[05:19] <xiko> pike_:  hmm I have the sda one that should be copied to the hdb. Is there  a program or something? I tried Gpart but the hd doesnt boot and I have set the flag to boot.
[05:19] <Genscher> stefg: i figured that because ubuntu was the system which absolved the most checks in copmpare to knoppix/kanopix :)
[05:20] <j_ack> genius314 , restart after setting only your X, not the hole system
[05:20] <Riyonuk> Ubuntu
[05:20] <stefg> Genscher: maybe you just need a special boot-parameter to get it going... but i've got no experience with Dual-K7 on Tyan...
[05:20] <pike_> xiko: there are a number of solutions really. im not too familiar with making backup images and tar.gz of whole hd but either dd or cat /dev/hda1 > /dev/hdb1 you might google for exact syntax
[05:21] <LjL> xiko, one thing is cloning the *partition*, and another thing is cloning the whole HD. if you only clone the partition, then the partition table on the new HD will have to be set up manually, including filesystem type and the master boot record
[05:21] <THEoracle> Hello all.....
[05:21] <Allman> someone know how to see an USB dialup modem?
[05:21] <Genscher> stefg: i'll search for it. thank you
[05:21] <LjL> xiko: or you could just clone the entire HD, if there's no data that you want to keep on the new one. but then i suppose they must be of exactly the same size, for that to work
[05:22] <Riyonuk> Ljl, im using ubuntu 6.10
[05:22] <xiko> LjL: they are the same size, should I use DD or is there a graphic program out there? It is the thing I want to do =)
[05:22] <vivicrow_> anyone of you got sound card problems after updating to the recent kernal?
[05:22] <Riyonuk> And do I want 6.06 or 6.06.1
[05:23] <LjL> Riyonuk: well, then the command "sudo cdrecord -data -sao filename.iso" should probably work, although i think there is a program called GnomeBacker to burn CDs with a graphical interface
[05:23] <Neeled> What packages would I need for a C compiler?  Just the build-essential one?
[05:23] <mariapm> ola
[05:23] <LjL> xiko, there probably are graphical programs, but i think dd should work
[05:23] <chand|> xiko: i suggest partimage http://www.partimage.org/Main_Page, u will find a bootable cd
[05:23] <LjL> Neeled: yes
[05:23] <vivicrow_> anyone of you got sound problems after updating to the recent kernal?
[05:23] <mariapm> la-golfa@agregame
[05:23] <xiko> ty guys
[05:23] <Neeled> LjL, Thank you
[05:23] <mariapm> mary_92_aracena agregame
[05:23] <xiko> trying partimage then
[05:23] <LjL> Neeled: although the programs you want to compile might then need additional libraries, but that depends entirely on the program
[05:23] <buis01> LjL: ok, I'm running bash but I don't have a .bash_history file.  Where can I find it if it's not in my home directory?
[05:24] <LjL> buis01: it definitely should be in your home
