[03:20] <seraph> DShepherd: that doesn't sound encouraging
[03:20] <seraph> ;_;
[03:21] <bolrod> probably install it on the 2nd drive if you want to pull the other one out... but it doesn't sound logical
[03:21] <DShepherd> seraph: srry but I didnt mean to discourage you, but that's how it works
[03:21] <musik> Seven, thers no openpgp in repos.only gnome-gpg.......
[03:21] <seraph|drnka> so no way to install linxu to hda2 that works?
[03:21] <seraph|drnka> thats really backward somehow
[03:21] <kynes> I couldn't do it
[03:22] <kynes> marcN
[03:22] <brenner> any bmp users?
[03:22] <seraph|drnka> wth
[03:22] <seraph|drnka> I'll be the first!
[03:22] <Seven> musik, use gnome-gpg i guess its good enough
[03:22] <kynes> I'm trying  this
[03:22] <seraph|drnka> see you all later
[03:22] <kynes> make > mout
[03:22] <kynes> this gives .. "gcc ... etc."
[03:22] <kynes> but error stuff doesn't come
[03:22] <DShepherd> seraph|drnka: there's is a way to do ir
[03:22] <kynes> how should I do it?
[03:22] <DShepherd> it*
[03:22] <musik> i cant see the Debian menu.....although i installed menu package:(
[03:22] <seraph|drnka> DShepherd: I am googling
[03:23] <DShepherd> seraph|drnka: google is your fren!! :)
[03:23] <bolrod> why do you want the debian menu
[03:23] <MarcN> kynes: sorry, ls > this-is-stdout 2> this-is-stderr
[03:23] <seraph|drnka> aight
[03:23] <seraph|drnka> rebooting
[03:23] <bolrod> k
[03:23] <kynes> ok this worked
[03:23] <kynes> thanks marcN
[03:24] <varsedangger> any ideas on how to write a shel script that runs something as superuser
[03:24] <brenner> musik: use smeg?
[03:24] <MarcN> kynes: you can test like this:      ls /bogus/directory > foo 2> foobar     foo is empty (nothing to stdout) but foobar has "...no such directory".
[03:24] <Amaranth> brenner: it's called alacarte now :)
[03:24] <MarcN> varsedangger: put in a:          sudo /usr/sbin/somecommand     and sudo will prompt for a password
[03:24] <kynes> MarcN : thanks.. works
[03:25] <Amaranth> brenner: http://dev.realistanew.com/alacarte/releases/0.8/alacarte_0.8-0ubuntu1_all.deb
[03:25] <brenner> Amaranth: heh, neat. did you come up with it?
[03:25] <musik> brenner, but ive installed many non-gnome nonkde apps:(
[03:26] <brenner> musik: sorry. maybe i misunderstood you...i just remember seeing a debian menu disabled by default in smeg
[03:26] <musik> yippeeeeeeeeeee........now i see the Debian menu:)
[03:26] <musik> brenner, its ok.now i see the Debian menu:)
[03:27] <Micksa> has anyone heard anything about grep being slow?
[03:27] <brenner> musik: how'd you do it?
[03:27] <MarcN> Micksa: what are you grepping and for what
[03:27] <openbox> is there a way to add menus in openbox?
[03:27] <Micksa> just a straight string
[03:28] <openbox> so i can have shortcuts to my installed proggies?
[03:28] <Micksa> I'm checking it against a UML I have running on the same machine
[03:28] <robotgeek> openbox: use the program http://denu.sf.net to generate u one
[03:28] <MarcN> Micksa: slow disks?
[03:28] <Micksa> no
[03:28] <Micksa> all in cache
[03:28] <robotgeek> openbox: you can then manually edit it from ~/.config/openbox/menu.xml
[03:28] <musik> brenner, i did nothing.it came by itself.just install the package named menu from synaptic
[03:28] <openbox> thanx robotgeek
[03:28] <openbox> o awesome!
[03:28] <MarcN> Micksa: use fgrep if no regex
[03:29] <musik> what does it mean to be installed as SUID root? seahorse is asking me....
[03:30] <musik> what does it mean to be installed SUID root? seahorse is asking me....
[03:30] <MarcN> musik: binary will run as the file owner, typically root.    Sometimes apps need to be suid to have priv access to devices, like cdburners.
[03:32] <yannux> but ati installer did not find Makefile on it
[03:32] <openbox> it seems that sourceforge page is down but illl mess with it later... thanx again robotgeek
[03:32] <sizzam> thanks!
[03:33] <robotgeek> brenner: thanks, i din't know that!
[03:33] <musik> MarcN, seahorse is a gui encrypting tool.....like kgpg
[03:33] <Micksa> could be an fs-related thing....
[03:33] <brenner> sizzam: what is it ooi?
[03:33] <MarcN> musik: /me installs seahorse.   (sudo apt-get install seahorse)
[03:33] <morgs^^>  sudo mount -o asdf.iso /cdrom         <-----    is that right for mounting ???
[03:33] <robotgeek> openbox: google for denu,
[03:33] <eedge> I'm running  sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop, but I'm getting these errors: http://pastebin.com/414745... eeek?
[03:33] <robotgeek> openbox: i pulled up link from memory
[03:33] <brenner> robotgeek: woo, i educated someone for once. :)
[03:33] <MarcN> morgs^^: sudo mount -o loop asdf.iso /mnt
[03:34] <robotgeek> brenner: much appreciated :)
[03:34] <morgs^^> ahh    cheers
[03:34] <Micksa> I'm using XFS
[03:34] <Micksa> because I know no fear
[03:34] <MarcN> musik: I'd follow the deb suggestion and allow suid access
[03:34] <kynes> is there a way to remove the "configuring network ... " stuff in the opening in ubuntu ?
[03:34] <kynes> you know, it waits for nothing
[03:34] <robotgeek> kynes: sudo gedit /etc/network/interfaces and comment the lines with auto
[03:34] <musik> MarcN, but id want to run seahorse as normal user...........
[03:34] <brenner> yannux: there's an fglrx driver in the repo....unless you require the latest driver, i suggest you use that one
[03:35] <brenner> much easier to install
[03:35] <drcode> hi all
[03:35] <robotgeek> kynes: for example, auto eth0 to stop eth0 from being brought up. don't mess with lo though
[03:35] <brenner> !ati
[03:35] <ubotu> well, ati is at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BinaryDriverHowto/ATI or http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=24557&page=1&pp=10
[03:35] <drcode> can I use IRC client to work from proxy?
[03:36] <nadjyla> yes
[03:36] <robotgeek> drcode: i believe irssi can work with a proxy, not sure though
[03:36] <MarcN> musik: that is the point of suid.  As a normal user, suid of root, will let the app run as if it was root.
[03:36] <Micksa> nope. it's grep.
[03:36] <Micksa> hasn't anybody else noticed this?
[03:36] <kynes> there is an "auto lo" in my file
[03:36] <kynes> is it normal?
[03:36] <robotgeek> kynes: yes, don't mess with that :)
[03:36] <yannux> brenner, need the latest, no 1280x800 with the ubuntu packaged driver :s
[03:36] <kynes> ok
[03:36] <eedge> I'm running  sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop, but I'm getting these errors: http://pastebin.com/414745... eeek?

[03:38] <robotgeek> eedge: can u also paste ur sources.list ?
[03:38] <nadjyla> maybe you have too many sources. better if you have only the three sources ubuntu.com
[03:38] <musik> why gnome in ubuntu doesnt give any icons to my kde apps???
[03:38] <brenner> basically, try entering the res on the mode line, and check your monitor rates are correct
[03:38] <musik> in the menu.........
[03:38] <Kamping_Kaiser> eedge: try apt-get -f install on it's own
[03:38] <aftertaf> nadjyla> sources list is ok... i have it.... and it works.
[03:39] <yannux> brenner, yes its good, it has already be good

[03:40] <musik> ubuntu doesnt give icons to my kde apps in menu??
[03:40] <eedge> ok, sorry, phone call... I'll try sudo apt-get install on its own :)
[03:40] <nadjyla> musik= check debian menu
[03:41] <Kamping_Kaiser> eedge: sudo apt-get -f install
[03:41] <Kamping_Kaiser> the -f is important
[03:41] <eedge> oh right, yeah :)
[03:41] <Kamping_Kaiser> :)
[03:41] <Riddell> musik: it's a KDE bug, I fixed it in KDE 3.5

[03:43] <Kamping_Kaiser> eedge: try sudo apt-get dist-upgrade
[03:43] <eedge> ok
[03:44] <Kamping_Kaiser> (i am asuming you updated your sources list after changing repos?)
[03:44] <MarcN> HorzA: /etc/ntp.conf
[03:44] <Kamping_Kaiser> meheren_: 'set up'?
[03:44] <Kamping_Kaiser> sudo apt-get install wine
[03:44] <eedge> I get to the Do you want to continue [Y/n] ?
[03:44] <Kamping_Kaiser> or more advanced stuff?
[03:44] <MarcN> HorzA: I use too many flavors of linux and was thinking redhat
[03:44] <HorzA> hehe :)
[03:44] <eedge> ... should I just do Y and hope for the bestest? :)
[03:44] <MagicFab> hello from Montreal
[03:44] <EvilPaddy> MarcN, Whats your opinion on these apps like, Lin4Win & Wine etc.. ? Ive heard free Wine isnt very good
[03:44] <MagicFab> A quickie... how can I change font size for GTK+ apps (not GTK2) ?
[03:45] <Kamping_Kaiser> EvilPaddy: it depends what you want to do wit it
[03:45] <MagicFab> gtk-theme-switch segfaults!
[03:45] <robotgeek> MagicFab: file a bug, and if possible attach a trace
[03:46] <eedge> I did y on upgrade.
[03:46] <MagicFab> robotgeek: I'm kind of rusty on that... how do I get a trace ?
[03:46] <musik> im not able to start amarok.splash i see.then it disapears
[03:46] <MarcN> EvilPaddy: I really don't use windows apps that much.  Using autostitch (google it) under wine is fine.  Not tried installing something like MS office into a wine instance.  Bought CrossOver Office years ago (commericalized wine) but find I don't need to use Office that much.  OpenOffice is very good at read/writing word/excel/powerpoint slides that I get/produce.
[03:46] <beezly> i'm in a meeting soon at work about what linux distro we pick as our "enterprise" server distribution - and I'm keen to promote ubuntu - can any one point me in a direction of information advocating ubuntu to enterprises
[03:46] <eedge> seems to be going ok
[03:46] <brenner> robotgeek: your turn to teach _me_ something :) trace?
[03:46] <robotgeek> MagicFab: i google for it everytime! so nuck, brenner
[03:47] <MagicFab> beezly: are you planning on using LTSP or just as file/mail/web server ?
[03:47] <MarcN> beezly: the key to 'enterprise' is support.  Does UbuntuLinux Inc now provide 365 24x7 support?  I just don't know.
[03:47] <beezly> MagicFab: all sorts of servers
[03:47] <aftertaf> beezly> very stable. based on debian. security patches released within hours. free....
[03:47] <tazoube> bijour, youk youk, salut, hola,....
[03:47] <robotgeek> it's strace, apparently!
[03:47] <tazoube> et re
[03:47] <beezly> MagicFab: we're talking across the board here
[03:47] <MagicFab> beezly: lots of development regarding local support of devices (ex. USB) are being targeted for drapper
[03:48] <MagicFab> oups :)
[03:48] <beezly> MagicFab: less interested in LTSP :)
[03:48] <MagicFab> dapper, I believe
[03:48] <adrian15> Hello, is there any ubuntu live cd developer, or cd developer to whom I could talk? I have a tool for making easier the Reinstallation of Grub and you might be interested.
[03:48] <EvilPaddy> Kamping_Kaiser, MarcN , I want to run Visio - tech director here uses Visio for spec/app flow etc
[03:48] <aftertaf> adrian15> goto #ubuntu-dev
[03:48] <MagicFab> adrian: /join #ubz , most of the devs are currently discussing specs about that, among others
[03:49] <Kamping_Kaiser> EvilPaddy: what is it?
[03:49] <MagicFab> discussing, meaning face to face, but most probably some are on IRC
[03:49] <adrian15> MagicFab, Thank you.
[03:49] <robotgeek> brenner,MagicFab :http://gaim.sourceforge.net/gdb.php
[03:49] <MarcN> EvilPaddy: you may want to try using qemu, installing windows  + visio into that
[03:49] <eedge> it appears this upgrade is going to take some time :)
[03:50] <eedge> lol
[03:50] <MarcN> EvilPaddy: or pony up for a vmware license.
[03:50] <robotgeek> EvilPaddy: i tht vmware was free now?
[03:51] <MarcN> robotgeek: the vmplayer is free.  Can't create new vmware instances.
[03:51] <beezly> MarcN: according to the website, Canonical do provide support
[03:51] <MagicFab> adrian15: you may want to check the various specs veing discussed on LaunchPad.net first
[03:51] <meheren_> can any1 tell me how to install wine for breezy?
[03:51] <meheren_> i need help
[03:51] <brenner> robotgeek: ah, gdb...how silly of me
[03:51] <varsedangger> did you try apt-getting it?
[03:51] <MarcN> beezly: then give it a try.  Another thing to consider is hw support.
[03:51] <robotgeek> MarcN: hah, i don't use it anyways
[03:51] <MagicFab> meheren_:  using Synaptic, search for the "wine" package, select it, apply
[03:51] <adrian15> MagicFab, 503 service unavailable
[03:51] <meheren_> i did that
[03:51] <robotgeek> I have a 'FREE' system, thanks to PPC!
[03:52] <meheren_> but now i can't find the program to use it
[03:52] <varsedangger> you may need to update your sources.list
[03:52] <meheren_> where would it be?
[03:52] <MagicFab> adrian15: I see that :)
[03:52] <nadjyla> type wine +....exe meheren_
[03:52] <CaBlGuY> mronin peeps.  o/
[03:52] <meheren_> in terminal?
[03:52] <varsedangger> meheren_, go to a terminal and do that
[03:52] <CaBlGuY> ummm  mornin even..
[03:52] <meheren_> ok
[03:52] <varsedangger> ...
[03:52] <MagicFab> adrian15: actually Launchpad.net is used to register to specs and schedule them, etc
[03:53] <MagicFab> all are on the wiki
[03:53] <MagicFab> start at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuBelowZero
[03:53] <meheren_> it says command not found
[03:53] <brenner> anyone heard of no sound in quicktime movies using totem(-xine)?
[03:53] <robotgeek> brenner: the newer quicktimes need w32codecs, AFAIK
[03:53] <CaBlGuY> brenner,  no, but the first install I did, didn't have any sound
[03:54] <MagicFab> This pre-ubz draft has links to most of them:
[03:54] <MagicFab> https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuBelowZero/BOFs
[03:54] <CaBlGuY> brainball,  u running breezy?
[03:54] <Samhain`> are ubuntu distros unstable?
[03:54] <CaBlGuY> errr   brenner  I ment..
[03:54] <varsedangger> meheren_, just type win and then tab
[03:54] <brenner> CaBlGuY: was that a dirty remark...or is it just me?
[03:54] <ompaul> Samhain`, no
[03:54] <CaBlGuY> dang fingers..
[03:54] <adrian15> MagicFab, Ah,... ubz, I thought that it was an irc channel for developers... not a meeting in Montreal. Ah
[03:54] <Samhain`> I must have had unstable because there were a ton more packages than in debian stable
[03:54] <varsedangger> if it doesn't auto complete then wine isn't set up yet
[03:54] <nadjyla> if you want to emulate something easy, try with foobar . it s easy meheren_
[03:54] <brenner> robotgeek: got them....qt movies play, i just don't get no sound
[03:55] <MagicFab> well, ubz is also the channel where people attending ubz are... :)
[03:55] <CaBlGuY> brenner,  I was asking what version yur running..  hedghog, or breezy..
[03:55] <brenner> CaBlGuY: no i meant your fingers thing..nvm...breezy
[03:55] <K_Dallas> in the sources.list, should i uncomment the backport lines to get tetex? or there is another repository that i have to add?
[03:55] <robotgeek> brenner: it's been a while since i played anything quicktime on breezy
[03:55] <brenner> avis, mpgs all work fine...just qt movies it seems
[03:55] <jasonb_> hi my ubuntu install just crashed and i havent done anything all i remember is putting a dvd. i just rebooted it and its now in command line mode displaying "UNEXPECTED INCONSISTENCY; RUN fsck MANUALLY" and fsck failed.  now i want to run these commands but i dont want to make things worse so it would be erally great if anyone could walk me through? thanks in advance this is big time
[03:55] <CaBlGuY> brenner,  ummmm   I JUST woke up, Im not all here yet.. ;)
[03:56] <eedge> silly question, but how do I create destop links to folders and files?
[03:56] <CaBlGuY> and I was explaining my fingers don't work good (on the keyboard) when I first get up...
[03:56] <varsedangger> what is foobar?
[03:56] <ompaul> Samhain`, ubuntu breezy was SID in April, cleaned up and popped out
[03:56] <brenner> CaBlGuY: nvm, i guess i have a dirtier mind than i thoughr. :)
[03:56] <CaBlGuY> varsedangger,  it's actaully fubar..
[03:56] <BeGu> eedge, would it be same as right click -> create laucher
[03:57] <brenner> CaBlGuY: yeah, i was thinking of something else apparently. :D
[03:57] <CaBlGuY> brenner,  that could be a good thing depending on yur employment.. :p
[03:57] <eedge> The options always blanked out...
[03:57] <meheren_> can any1 tell me how to install itunes+quicktime for breezy?
[03:57] <eedge> grayed if you will.
[03:57] <MarcN> jasonb_: run fsck /dev/hda1 (or which ever it complained about)  and accept the defaults about fixing the disk.
[03:57] <meheren_> i got the windows install packet
[03:57] <MagicFab> http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Foobar
[03:57] <CaBlGuY> varsedangger,  I could tell you what it means, but it's got some "nasty" words in there.. :p
[03:57] <robotgeek> K_Dallas: you don't need to add anything, try sudo apt-get install tetex-bin
[03:58] <CaBlGuY> so anyway brenner  u needing help with your sound?
[03:58] <doyley>  ok a small question i have a 40gb hardrive (fat32) which ineed 20 gb of can i split it and install linux on half?

[03:59] <K_Dallas> robotgeek, tetex3: is there a way to get it?
[03:59] <EvilPaddy> MarcN, wickedpuppy, command not found :-(
[03:59] <wickedpuppy> EvilPaddy, then you got no wine :P
[03:59] <funkyHat> does Xfce use xcompmgr? or does it do transparency/drop shadows a different way?
[03:59] <MagicFab> meheren_: A wiki is a website that people can edit very easily
[03:59] <brenner> CaBlGuY: i thought i did....no sound in qt movies. using totem-xine, w32codecs installed
[03:59] <jasonb_> MarcN thanks ill try that out can you hang in there? i cant afford to lose all my data residing in my ubuntu install
[04:00] <MagicFab> meheren_: Many people collaborate to produce content
[04:00] <CaBlGuY> !tell meheren_ about quicktime
[04:00] <MarcN> EvilPaddy: try: which wine   for me it is in /usr/bin/wine
[04:00] <MagicFab> !tell MagicFab about quicktime
[04:00] <MarcN> jasonb_: I'll be here, but that is the standard thing to do -- fsck /dev/whichever and take the defaults to repair blocks, inodes, etc
[04:00] <CaBlGuY> brenner,  ok..  hang on lemme think a sec..  u need more codecs.. hang on.
[04:01] <robotgeek> drcode: http://irssi.org/?page=docs&doc=proxy
[04:01] <MarcN> jasonb_: I've done it many, many times and only lost data 1) bad, failing disk or 2) data I wanted was just tried to written to disk at crashtime.
[04:01] <CaBlGuY> brenner, ok, u know how to use the help guide and apt-get??
[04:01] <MagicFab> CaBlGuY: could you brief me on other shortcuts to help people here ?
[04:02] <MarcN> jasonb_: and when I wasn't using a journaled file system.
[04:02] <reter> how can i check what kind of mb my memory/ram is on this machine
[04:02] <MagicFab> CaBlGuY: or point me to the right place on the wiki :)
[04:02] <brenner> yup
[04:02] <jasonb_> MarcN im using ext2 for my linux
[04:02] <K_Dallas> reter, open the case, get a flash light and explore
[04:02] <CaBlGuY> MagicFab, gimme a sec...  helpin brenner just now
[04:02] <MarcN> reter: free -m
[04:02] <DShepherd> K_Dallas: lol
[04:02] <MarcN> jasonb_: you will probably be okay.
[04:03] <CaBlGuY> brenner U know hot to use the help and apt-get??
[04:03] <wickedpuppy> reter, you can also cat /proc/meminfo
[04:03] <brenner> !tell MagicFab about ubotu
[04:03] <robotgeek> MagicFab: also a good place is ubuntu.cc.com.au , which is the ubotu factoid page
[04:03] <MagicFab> reter: RIght click on your top panel (for example), "Add to Panel" , choose "system monitor" then double click on it
[04:03] <brenner> CaBlGuY: i answered you already, yes
[04:03] <CaBlGuY> !tell MagicFab about shortcuts
[04:03] <MagicFab> reter: you'll get several indicators of system resources (CPU, disk, networking)
[04:03] <CaBlGuY> brenner my bad.  lots of peeps..
[04:03] <MagicFab> CaBlGuY: :D tx
[04:03] <brenner> CaBlGuY: i'm not really a novice....just tell me which packages if that's it
[04:04] <brenner> CaBlGuY: no, i should have highlighted it
[04:04] <CaBlGuY> brenner, ok, open up the help and go to satarter guide>apps>music and movies
[04:05] <CaBlGuY> brenner, ok, just go there and inmstall all those codecs..
[04:05] <CaBlGuY> and once ya get em all installed, u need to register gstream
[04:05] <brenner> heh. logical
[04:05] <CaBlGuY> wurd.
[04:05] <CaBlGuY> :)
[04:05] <brenner> what does registering do?
[04:06] <DShepherd> MagicFab: what's the commmand to lauch that system monitor
[04:06] <DShepherd> ?
[04:06] <CaBlGuY> brenner, it's like ummm  turning the package "on" once it's installed
[04:06] <robotgeek> brenner: apparently, it's like service has to register it's presence or something funky like that!
[04:06] <CaBlGuY> hehe
[04:07] <brenner> weird, i never registered the mad package, and it works
[04:07] <CaBlGuY> yeH somethih funky.
[04:07] <DShepherd> MagicFab: Ok...I found it gnome-system-monitor
[04:07] <robotgeek> brenner: though, it would be nice to have gstreamer autoregister itself, or handled by debconf
[04:07] <seraph|drnka> good evening
[04:07] <MagicFab> DShepherd: there's no command, it will appear on your top tool bar
[04:07] <seraph|drnka> apparently installing to hda2 works like a charm
[04:07] <adrian15> Coming back. Is Ubuntu installation cdrom boot based on Isolinux ?
[04:07] <jasonb_> MarcN its asking me to remount and after i did it goes to the same command line prompt after booting
[04:07] <seraph|drnka> so whats the latest release?
[04:08] <seraph|drnka> brezzy?
[04:08] <seraph|drnka> breezy?
[04:08] <DShepherd> MagicFab: :d there is a command
[04:08] <MagicFab> DShepherd: sorry, misunderstood
[04:08] <EvilPaddy> MarcN, Are you running wine?
[04:08] <robotgeek> seraph|drnka: breezy, 5.10
[04:08] <CaBlGuY> MagicFab get the shortcuts thing down?
[04:08] <seraph|drnka> ah shit
[04:08] <seraph|drnka> means a ton of upgrades
[04:08] <DShepherd> MagicFab: that;s kool
[04:08] <MarcN> EvilPaddy: occasionally for random small windows apps
[04:08] <MagicFab> CaBlGuY: most excellent stuff, TX!
[04:08] <wickedpuppy> EvilPaddy, wine is /usr/bin/wine ... if you got it by synaptic
[04:08] <CaBlGuY> seraph|drnka,  what u mean??  just do apt-get updates
[04:08] <MarcN> jasonb_: did you fsck the disk it was complaining about (probably the / partition)
[04:08] <brenner> robotgeek: what if i am naughty and don't register?
[04:09] <robotgeek> seraph|drnka: look at /topic, and the link to breezy upgrades
[04:09] <seraph|drnka> CaBlGuY: to dist upgrade
[04:09] <EvilPaddy> MarcN, wickedpuppy, I have wine installed now, just tried to run PuTTY, worked fine.. How would I run something like visio/outlook?
[04:09] <seraph|drnka> means a ton of updates to download
[04:09] <MarcN> EvilPaddy: you'
[04:09] <robotgeek> brenner: i dunno, i never did. i apparently don't use gstreamer!
[04:09] <MagicFab> !tell MagicFab about nvidia
[04:09] <wickedpuppy> EvilPaddy, you want those .. get crossover
[04:09] <EvilPaddy> MarcN, wickedpuppy, PuTTY as Im sure you know is  astandalone app..
[04:09] <CaBlGuY> seraph|drnka,  well, depending on what distro u got and what yurn tryin to upgrade..
[04:09] <seraph|drnka> CaBlGuY: I got hoary
[04:09] <MarcN> EvilPaddy: you'll have to 'install it' then run it.  putty.exe is just a single program.  That is all I really use wine for -- simple single .exe programs.
[04:09] <CaBlGuY> have you uopdated yur repos?
[04:10] <seraph|drnka> right o f the CD
[04:10] <seraph|drnka> nope
[04:10] <CaBlGuY> seraph|drnka,  update yur reops.
[04:10] <EvilPaddy> MarcN, Do you install apps into Wine?
[04:10] <robotgeek> seraph|drnka: look at /topic, link to wiki tells u how to do it!
[04:10] <CaBlGuY> !tell seraph|drnka  about update repos
[04:10] <seraph|drnka> aight
[04:10] <MagicFab> !tell MagicFab about DVD
[04:10] <CaBlGuY> !tell seraph|drnka  about repos
[04:10] <CaBlGuY> try that..  :p
[04:10] <MarcN> EvilPaddy: yeah.  run wine ./the-installer.exe from the cd or wherever
[04:10] <robotgeek> !msg
[04:10] <ubotu> please don't /msg people or start a personal message/ dcc chat without asking first in channel. People might be busy, and you have a better chance of an answer in the channel. Don't assume a particular user will be able to help you.
[04:10] <MarcN> EvilPaddy: you will have a ~/.wine or such directory
[04:11] <robotgeek> damn, what's the message /ubotu thing?
[04:11] <EvilPaddy> MarcN, It will be kept in there?
[04:11] <jasonb_> MarcN i cant remember the volume where i installed the linux... how do i determine that? and what would happen if i try to fsck the wrong volume? thanks man
[04:11] <MarcN> EvilPaddy: yeah.
[04:11] <adrian15> MagicFab, Can you look a moment at http://adrian15.raulete.net/grub/ and tell me what do you think about it? If Ubuntu is isolinux based we could integrate it with GSD.
[04:11] <MagicFab> robotgeek: !tell is a special command picked up by a "bot" on this channel
[04:11] <robotgeek> !msgthebot
[04:11] <MarcN> jasonb_: on boot it should tell you.  There is no problem fsck'ing a partion that is already clean.  Just make sure it isn't mounted.
[04:11] <nadjyla> jasonb_, check /etc/fstab
[04:11] <Kimm> hello all :)
[04:12] <MagicFab> robotgeek: it searches a database of "factoids" and sends the intended person the information, privately
[04:12] <CaBlGuY> robotgeek,  what are you needing??
[04:12] <robotgeek> MagicFab: i know, been here quite for some time :)
[04:12] <CaBlGuY> or trying to do?
[04:12] <robotgeek> I was try to point out that you can /msg ubotu factoid too
[04:12] <CaBlGuY> Oh..
[04:12] <BeGu> can I delete a directory using sudo? with what command?
[04:12] <jasonb_> nadjyla i tried the "check /etc/fstab" but its saying command not found
[04:12] <Kimm> sudo rm -rf
[04:12] <nadjyla> no
[04:12] <ufd_> does anyone know if it is possible to run in "dual screen mode" in xorg with Intel Graphics Media Accelerator 900 ?
[04:12] <MagicFab> robotgeek: :D what was the question then
[04:12] <CaBlGuY> BeGu,  yep, but immnopt the cammonsd hang on
[04:12] <nadjyla> check is not a commandline
[04:13] <CaBlGuY> !tell BeGu  about directories

[04:13] <CaBlGuY> !tell BeGu  about dir
[04:13] <CaBlGuY> Hmm
[04:13] <MagicFab> adrian15: looking at it

[04:13] <BeGu> CaBlGuY, nothing happened ...
[04:14] <ArdieM> how can i setup a command to a keykombination?? (iptables command)
[04:14] <CaBlGuY> BeGu,  yeah I knw..
[04:14] <CaBlGuY> I'm tryin to get u to the wiki on Directories
[04:14] <CaBlGuY> !ubotu
[04:14] <ubotu> Thaaat's me! I'm a bot, not a human. I'm sometimes the most coherent poster on this channel! For more, ask me about "add". You can browse my databanks on http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/
[04:15] <bolrod> !solve illness
[04:15] <ubotu> bolrod: Did you get hit by a windmill?
[04:15] <robotgeek> !botabuse
[04:15] <ubotu> You can play with me on #debian-bots without being banned.
[04:15] <bolrod> O_O?  do I want to play with ubotu ?
[04:16] <CaBlGuY> Hmmmm
[04:16] <brenner> seems like it
[04:16] <MagicFab> adrian15: what did you want to do with that, I mean related to U. ?
[04:16] <CaBlGuY> anyone know the command for the bot for directories?
[04:16] <lembranca> #apache
[04:16] <bolrod> what about directories
[04:16] <bolrod> ?
[04:16] <CaBlGuY> Or tell BeGu  how to el a dir..
[04:16] <bolrod> rm -r
[04:16] <bolrod> rm <dir> -r
[04:16] <CaBlGuY> there ya go BeGu

[04:18] <nadjyla> lol
[04:18] <jasonb_> that was a joke by the way i mean the porn part
[04:18] <MarcN> jasonb_: I'm glad your porn is safe ;-)

[04:18] <robotgeek> jasonb_: it's quite alright to have pron, i maintain mine in a cvs. how about you? :)
[04:18] <K_Dallas> Q: is there an easy way to get xemacs on ubuntu (instead of emacs or along with it) ? thanks
[04:19] <MarcN> robotgeek: public cvs server? ;-)
[04:19] <CaBlGuY> over my head..
[04:19] <CaBlGuY> K_Dallas,  u check the wiki on the page?
[04:19] <robotgeek> K_Dallas: you can do a package search using apt-cache search <package> or at http://packages.ubuntu.com
[04:19] <MarcN> K_Dallas: xemacs is evil.
[04:20] <CaBlGuY> hehe
[04:20] <seraph|drnka> alrighjt
[04:20] <seraph|drnka> remove GNOME
[04:20] <CaBlGuY> everyone answer @ once..
[04:20] <CaBlGuY> ready..
[04:20] <CaBlGuY> GO!

[04:20] <K_Dallas> CaBlGuY, robotgeek , checking those, thank you
[04:20] <CaBlGuY> wurd..
[04:20] <robotgeek> MarcN: just kidding, it's a good though though
[04:20] <MarcN> K_Dallas: just use emacs.  It has an X interface (if your DISPLAY is set properly)
[04:20] <robotgeek> /thogh/thought

[04:21] <rapha> Hi all!
[04:21] <robotgeek> I think the ops will remind us to take that to #ubuntu-offtopics :)
[04:21] <rapha> How do you enable the XTEST extension under Ubuntu?
[04:21] <K_Dallas> MarcN, i didnt find it in synaptic
[04:22] <MagicFab> Where can I find Dapper specs ?
[04:22] <MarcN> K_Dallas:  apt-cache search ^xemacs  finds it for me.
[04:22] <K_Dallas> ok,  i will try it again
[04:22] <CaBlGuY> Mornin nalioth  o/
[04:22] <dandelion> hello
[04:22] <bolrod> hello
[04:22] <seraph|drnka> how the heck do I remove pacages without it installing new stuff?
[04:23] <bolrod> ?
[04:23] <MagicFab> seraph|drnka: which packages ?
[04:23] <bolrod> apt-get remove
[04:23] <bolrod> ?
[04:23] <dandelion> I have a laptop which cdrom drive is dead. How can I install ubuntu on it?
[04:23] <seraph|drnka> I want to get rid of GNOME completely
[04:23] <seraph|drnka> but it wants to upgrade [paciages at the same time
[04:23] <highvoltage> apt-get remove ubuntu-desktop?
[04:23] <seraph|drnka> highvoltage: no
[04:23] <seraph|drnka> that removes the metapackages
[04:23] <seraph|drnka> not the actual packages
[04:23] <bolrod> apt-get remove gnome*  ?
[04:24] <bolrod> gets rid of alot of gnome stuff
[04:24] <brainheadz> hi
[04:24] <bolrod> :)
[04:24] <MarcN> dandelion: if you are advanced maybe using pxe boot.
[04:24] <MagicFab> dandelion: boot from USB
[04:24] <CaBlGuY> Howdy brainheadz   o/
[04:25] <rapha> Does nobody know about XTEST?
[04:25] <dandelion> MagicFab: can I just 'dd' the iso over a raw usb device (like /dev/sda) and boot that? well, I'll try ;)
[04:25] <brenner> dandelion: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Installation
[04:25] <MarcN> rapha: xdpyinfo says my server supports xtest
[04:25] <CaBlGuY> brainheadz,  anything we can  help u with today?
[04:26] <brenner> see advanced install stuff on that page i guess
[04:26] <nalioth> seraph|drnka: i would suspect trying to remove gnome totally will botch your system
[04:26] <MagicFab> !tell dandelion about install
[04:26] <MarcN> rapha: xdpyinfo that is
[04:26] <Ng> nalioth: depends how you define botch, but you could put the system to the equivalent state of a server install and it'd be ok
[04:26] <EvilPaddy> wow, wine is pretty handy
[04:27] <dandelion> MagicFab: thanks
[04:27] <MarcN> xd
[04:27] <dr_willis> EvilPaddy,  been using Cedega Myself mainly

[04:27] <CaBlGuY> !tell lembranca  about htaccess
[04:28] <CaBlGuY> Hmmmm
[04:28] <nalioth> EvilPaddy: there is a free version
[04:28] <dr_willis> EvilPaddy,  cedega is designed with games in mind. The cvs versionis free.. comercial version is fairly cheep. $5 a mo.
[04:28] <CaBlGuY> bot needs some updating.. :p
[04:28] <EvilPaddy> CaBlGuY, Just installed text editor, now for the big test..Visio, big ass cpu intensive app

[04:29] <Marlowe> EvilPaddy - Visio is known to work on Crossover Office - so I don't think you'll have any problems
[04:29] <K_Dallas> MarcN, apt-cache search ^xemacs  didnt bring anything here!

[04:32] <Whistler> anybody?
[04:32] <CaBlGuY> Whistler,  what are you tryin to do?
[04:32] <robotgeek> Whistler: your best best is to post the entire error msg to pastebin, and post the link here, and wait!
[04:33] <robotgeek> Ah, see..some at it already :)
[04:33] <MagicFab> roel_: do you hear it at boot or it's not working at all ?
[04:33] <CaBlGuY> !tell Whistler  about pastebin

[04:35] <MagicFab> CaBlGuY: how do I add something to the bot's KB ?
[04:35] <Marlowe> Whistler either hdc is leftover in mtab, or there's a process using vilius
[04:35] <rapha> lol
[04:35] <rapha> ubotu, where can I find help
[04:35] <ubotu> rapha: Do they come in packets of five?
[04:35] <EmergeTW> Anyone know if unreal 2k4 demo has a package anywhere in one of the *verses?
[04:35] <Whistler> Marlowe so how could i solve this?
[04:36] <nadjyla> EmergeTW, no, i think no
[04:36] <robotgeek> MagicFab: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbotuUsage
[04:36] <Marlowe> grep hdc /etc/mtab 1stly
[04:36] <Whistler> grep hdc /etc/mtab gives me nothing
[04:36] <Marlowe> 2ndly, make sure you haven't got vilius as pwd
[04:37] <CaBlGuY> MagicFab,  not sure on that one..
[04:37] <MagicFab> CaBlGuY: reading...
[04:37] <CaBlGuY> OK
[04:37] <Marlowe> then in desperation, reach for 'fuser -c device'
[04:38] <Whistler> Marlowe if i try different dir i get the same thing
[04:38] <Marlowe> what's fuser -c /dev/hdc give you?
[04:38] <Whistler> /dev/.static/dev: Permission denied
[04:38] <Marlowe> sudo fuser -c /dev/hdc
[04:39] <MagicFab> ubotu soundhoary is https://wiki.ubuntu.com/SoundProblemsHoary
[04:39] <ubotu> okay, MagicFab
[04:39] <MagicFab> :)
[04:39] <Whistler> Marlowe nothing
[04:39] <MagicFab> ubotu sound is http://ubuntuguide.org/#configuresoundproperly
[04:39] <ubotu> ...but sound is already something else...
[04:39] <MagicFab> !sound
[04:39] <ubotu> sound is probably http://www.ubuntulinux.org/wiki/DebuggingSoundProblems/, or http://wiki.ubuntu.com/SoundProblemsHoary
[04:39] <MagicFab> there you go
[04:39] <EvilPaddy> Just tried installing Visio in Wine and a alert Informed me, "Newer windows version needed" - Anything can be done with this...
[04:39] <norskfjord> Hi, what is the best antivirus software for ubuntu in the console not X?
[04:40] <K_Dallas> norskfjord, clamav
[04:40] <K_Dallas> the best i dont know
[04:40] <MagicFab> !ubz
[04:40] <ubotu> MagicFab: I give up, what is it?
[04:40] <norskfjord> what about trend?
[04:41] <robotgeek> !tell MagicFab about add
[04:41] <norskfjord> also, is there a way for me to stop DoS attacts on my system?
[04:41] <MagicFab> robotgeek: I am doing just that
[04:41] <MagicFab> I think using !<keyword> is also friendlier than !tell <nick> <keyword> - but that's me ;)
[04:41] <jbroome> norskfjord: dos attacks, or just scripted ssh pokes?
[04:42] <wickedpuppy> norskfjord, DoS or antivirus ?
[04:42] <robotgeek> MagicFab: try to use /msg ubotu when the channel is busy :)
[04:42] <wickedpuppy> they are different
[04:42] <MagicFab> norskfjord: is undergoing, unplug, check logs, etc
[04:42] <Whistler> anybody?
[04:42] <Whistler> http://pastebin.com/414810
[04:42] <MagicFab> robotgeek: tx., yes it gets busy
[04:42] <ericmoritz> has anyone gotten wpa working with ubuntu?
[04:42] <norskfjord> Well both
[04:42] <norskfjord> start with DoS first
[04:42] <norskfjord> and scripted ssh pokes
[04:43] <adjacent> does open office have a firefox plugin?
[04:43] <Marlowe> Whistler - you do have write permission to vilius, yes?
[04:43] <Whistler> yep
[04:43] <Whistler> its not the folder
[04:43] <robotgeek> adjacent: what exactly do u have in mind?
[04:43] <Whistler> i tried different folders and i got same thing
[04:43] <AngryClip> Whistler,  is /dev/hdc already pointing at /media/cdrom
[04:43] <adjacent> robotgeek: id like to view .docs within firefox. not in an oo2 window
[04:44] <robotgeek> adjacent: hmm, maybe not
[04:44] <funkyHat> there is a Mozilla Plug-in
[04:44] <funkyHat> not quite sure what it does though ;)
[04:44] <_jan> hi i have a problem with reiserfs partion
[04:44] <adjacent> robotgeek: like acrobat files, etc. not really neccessary, but it owuld be convienient
[04:44] <ericmoritz> wap encryption for wifi that is?
[04:44] <EvilPaddy> CaBlGuY, Whats the story with the "newer version of windows needed"?
[04:45] <MagicFab> adjacent: mozilla-openoffice.org (package)
[04:45] <funkyHat> adjacent, yes, there is
[04:45] <Whistler> AngryClip doest look so
[04:45] <Marlowe> Whistler, fuser /home/admin/Desktop/vilius ?
[04:45] <funkyHat> according to OOo help, that is what the 'Mozilla Plug-in' option in the options dialogue does
[04:45] <adjacent> cool. thanks
[04:45] <_jan> the reiserfs partion have i created on 1 year ago with debian when i want mount the partion
[04:46] <funkyHat> (that may only be OOo 2 though)
[04:46] <Whistler> Marlowe without sudo?
[04:46] <_jan> come the partion is already in use
[04:46] <robotgeek> ericmoritz: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/WPAHowto
[04:46] <CaBlGuY> EvilPaddy,  in what context are you reading that??
[04:46] <MagicFab> adjacent: let us know if it does what we think it does
[04:46] <norskfjord> so, how do I stop myself from getting DoS attacked?
[04:46] <adjacent> MagicFab: i will. ill be installing it later today though. got to run now
[04:46] <Marlowe> Whistler - sudo can't hurt
[04:46] <CaBlGuY> EvilPaddy,  probably talkin about like ME or newer..
[04:47] <adjacent> norskfjord: enable syncookies. use a more complete iptables ruleset
[04:47] <Whistler> Marlowe without sudo i get permission denied with sudo i get nothing
[04:47] <EvilPaddy> CaBlGuY, Tried installing Visio 2003, in Wine - When is starts to run, It pops up: "Newer version of windows needed"
[04:47] <ericmoritz> err I mean wpa :)
[04:47] <_jan> set in wine config win2000 ;-)
[04:47] <CaBlGuY> EvilPaddy,  sounds like it's not doin right with Ubuntu..
[04:47] <Marlowe> Whistler - ok, someone's telling fibs - neither /dev/hdc or vilius are in use...
[04:47] <Falcon> norskfjord: cut off sources of DoS one router before your network
[04:47] <robotgeek> ericmoritz: this link is about wpa -> https://wiki.ubuntu.com/WPAHowto
[04:48] <EvilPaddy> _jan, Wheres this config?
[04:48] <Marlowe> Whistler - not you of course, I mean .. stuff
[04:48] <CaBlGuY> _jan,  U got him??
[04:48] <_jan> home/user/.wine
[04:48] <Marlowe> Whistler - to be honest, about now I'd try a reboot
[04:49] <_jan> can help me anybody
[04:49] <DShepherd> where's is the default image for the ubuntus splash screen stored
[04:49] <EvilPaddy> _jan, System.reg, userdef.reg or user.reg, one of those?
[04:49] <DShepherd> ?
[04:49] <_jan> config
[04:49] <norskfjord> adjacent, may I /msg you for assistance?
[04:49] <Marlowe> _jan don't bother asking if you can ask - just leap in
[04:49] <robotgeek> ericmoritz: also try this -> https://wiki.ubuntu.com/forum/hardware/ndiswrapperWithWPA
[04:49] <odie5533> How often does data corrupt on fat32?
[04:49] <Whistler> Marlowe i tried to reboot
[04:49] <Marlowe> no dice huh...
[04:49] <_jan> the name of the file is config
[04:50] <CaBlGuY> odie5533,  yur kiddin right??
[04:50] <Marlowe> Whistler - you mean you DID reboot - or you tried - and system wouldn't shut down?
[04:50] <odie5533> CaBlGuY, is that a lot or not a lot then?
[04:50] <robotgeek> odie5533: it works alrite on my external hdd. best compliance for linux + windows
[04:50] <EvilPaddy> _jan, Wheres this config? not in .wine ..
[04:50] <_jan> home/user/.wine/config
[04:50] <CaBlGuY> odie5533,  the minute u boot up a fat32 partition it's pretty much shot..   especialy today with all the malware n stuff online..
[04:51] <MagicFab> odie5533: everytime you turn off the computer / host unexpectedly, it helps create data corruption situations
[04:51] <DShepherd> where's is the default image for the ubuntus splash screen stored?
[04:51] <odie5533> MagicFab, if I do that on ext3 will it corrupt?
[04:51] <EvilPaddy> _jan, that creates new file for me?
[04:51] <MagicFab> odie5533: from what I know, ext3 is a journaling filesystem, meaning it should recover from it
[04:51] <norskfjord> how do I stop scripted ssh pokes?
[04:51] <MagicFab> odie5533: but I wouldn't plan on doing that repeatedly
[04:51] <_jan> one mom
[04:51] <CaBlGuY> odie5533,  what MagicFab said as well..
[04:52] <robotgeek> DShepherd: http://art.gnome.org/faq.php#q8
[04:52] <odie5533> Ubuntu has been crashing a lot lately, and Im wondering why :S
[04:52] <_jan> winetksetup
[04:52] <MagicFab> odie5533: perhaps Wikipedia.org has more (friendly) info on filesystems (ext3, reiser, etc))
[04:52] <CaBlGuY> odie5533,  have you done an update??
[04:52] <_jan> run this
[04:52] <MarcN> odie5533: Ubuntu never crashes for me.   I dont want that I just want to know where the default one is located...if there's any default one
[04:55] <daved-> is there any command on ubuntu like system-config-authconfig on redhat? i.e. i want to set the machine up to use ldap for user authentication
[04:55] <EvilPaddy> _jan, I cant receive files through this..
[04:55] <MarcN> and my home server doesn't run X.
[04:55] <odie5533> *storage drive
[04:55] <_jan> type this in the console
[04:55] <bur[n] er> odie5533: reiser is fast!!
[04:55] <_jan> and bad
[04:55] <MagicFab> !ldap
[04:55] <ubotu> Not a clue, MagicFab
[04:55] <bur[n] er> odie5533: ext3 can be read by windows... www.fs-driver.org
[04:55] <robotgeek> DShepherd: location of that is in the gconf-editor key
[04:55] <_jan> because i have a problem with them
[04:55] <CaBlGuY> odie5533,  come in to #kubuntu-offtopic we can help u more in there
[04:55] <cjuner> Is there a way to redirect everything that should go to ESD to ALSA?
[04:56] <_jan> rename the the home path and good
[04:56] <cjuner> libesd-alsa0 does not allow to play ESD sounds and OSS sounds at the same time.
[04:56] <DShepherd> robotgeek: I  want to restore me default logo....but I need to know where it is
[04:56] <DShepherd> can anybody check their gconf-editor key and tell me where it is?
[04:57] <robotgeek> DShepherd: hmm, one sec
[04:57] <MagicFab> DShepherd: sure - which key
[04:57] <DShepherd> is the file called ubuntu-splash?
[04:58] <robotgeek> DShepherd: cd .gnome2/splash/
[04:58] <_jan> then apt-get install winetksetup
[04:58] <MagicFab> I believe its in splash/ubuntu-splash.png
[04:58] <MagicFab> in .gnome2
[04:58] <_jan> the type the command in a shell
[04:58] <dueyfinster> How many cds (in your opinion) is too much to order from shipit?
[04:58] <DShepherd> robotgeek, MagicFab ok
[04:58] <DShepherd> looking now
[04:58] <_jan> root@dibsi:/home/jan# mount -t reiserfs -o conv /dev/sda1 /backup
[04:58] <_jan> mount: /dev/sda1 ist bereits eingehngt oder /backup wird gerade benutzt
[04:58] <Stormx2> Heya
[04:59] <robotgeek> cjuner: for multiple sounds, you _need_ to use ESD. alsa doesn't support multiple sounds
[04:59] <_jason> dueyfinster:  more than you need or are willing to distribute is too much imo
[04:59] <carl> I am try to install realplayer on my system and I am not sure what to do to change the bin file
[04:59] <norskfjord> sudo echo 1 > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/tcp_syncookies
[04:59] <cjuner> robotgeek, I use dmix which allows playing multiple sounds.
[04:59] <MagicFab> dueyfinster: any CD you're not extra sure will not be used as intended is too much
[04:59] <norskfjord> -bash: /proc/sys/net/ipv4/tcp_syncookies: Permission denied
[04:59] <norskfjord> whats goingon?
[04:59] <_jan> thats my problem:
[04:59] <_jan> root@dibsi:/home/jan# mount -t reiserfs -o conv /dev/sda1 /backup
[04:59] <_jan> mount: /dev/sda1 ist bereits eingehngt oder /backup wird gerade benutzt
[04:59] <robotgeek> cjuner: ah, yes..
[04:59] <cjuner> robotgeek, works well. The thing is all gnome sounds rely on ESD.
[04:59] <MagicFab> *lend them* or give to a local library and direct people there
[05:00] <MagicFab> There was some talk about that at UBZ
[05:00] <daved-> is there any command on ubuntu like system-config-authconfig on redhat? i.e. i want to set the machine up to use ldap for user authentication
[05:00] <_jan> and this command have the same effect:
[05:00] <_jan> root@dibsi:/home/jan# mount -t reiserfs /dev/sda1 /backup
[05:00] <_jan> mount: /dev/sda1 ist bereits eingehngt oder /backup wird gerade benutzt
[05:00] <robotgeek> cjuner: then change everything to alsa, System -> Preferences -> Multimedia selector
[05:00] <MagicFab> (loveday)
[05:00] <cjuner> robotgeek, not as if those sounds where important - you know - those drums when you open directories etc. ... But it would nice it worked.
[05:00] <dueyfinster> Is their a kubuntu, ubuntu lite, edubuntu channel on freenode?
[05:00] <DShepherd> MagicFab, robotgeek: no splash directory under .gnome2
[05:00] <cjuner> robotgeek, gnome sounds do not work for ESD, unfortunately.
[05:00] <dueyfinster> Or is this the only one
[05:01] <BeGu> !edubuntu
[05:01] <ubotu> methinks edubuntu is An Ubuntu version suitable for classroom use. See http://edubuntu.org
[05:01] <DShepherd> MagicFab, robotgeek: /usr/share/pixmaps/splash/ubuntu-splash.png...there it is
[05:01] <MagicFab> search for the file ubuntu-splash.png in your filesystem
[05:01] <dueyfinster> I know I have read it
[05:01] <nalioth> dueyfinster: #kubuntu #edubuntu  and ubuntu lite is a fanboy travesty
[05:01] <robotgeek> cjuner: oh well, is there a link to a good dmix tutorial lying around?
[05:01] <BeGu> dueyfinster, you can try... there is own channels for those too I think
[05:02] <EvilPaddy> _jan, How do you access the wine gui?
[05:02] <MagicFab> !sound
[05:02] <ubotu> sound is, like, totally, http://www.ubuntulinux.org/wiki/DebuggingSoundProblems/, or http://wiki.ubuntu.com/SoundProblemsHoary
[05:02] <dueyfinster> nalioth: ubuntu lite is a fanboy travesty. lol why is that so?
[05:02] <cjuner> robotgeek, in Breezy dmix was auto-configured. One moment please, I am looking for one. ... Ah what ubotu just wrote could help you.
[05:02] <_jan> winetksetup
[05:02] <Amaranth> _jan: winecfg
[05:02] <nalioth> dueyfinster: it is a script that destroys some users boxen who use it
[05:03] <nalioth> dueyfinster: it is far from official
[05:03] <bolrod> is wine any good ... ?  I never got an application to work with it
[05:03] <bolrod> without something that messes up
[05:04] <dueyfinster> nalioth: Right so you wouldn't recommend someone distributing it instead of official Kubuntu and Ubuntu discs?
[05:04] <bolrod> there's always some window that is fucked up ... or its just painfully slow or something
[05:04] <luis_> Can you help me? I'm having trouble setting up apache in a network with asdl router+ switch
[05:05] <nalioth> dueyfinster: i do not recommend anyone using "ubuntu lite"
[05:05] <Whistler> Marlowe i did reboot
[05:05] <kenala>  hello i m in
[05:05] <nalioth> bolrod: language please

[05:07] <luis_> do I have to use NAT?
[05:07] <cjuner> Unreal_IX, restarting X?
[05:08] <Unreal_IX> how do I restart X?
[05:08] <nalioth> Unreal_IX: ctrl-alt-bksp
[05:10] <w0rd54> my seeded install is failing at 2nd stage....it is not taking my mirror settings from the .seed file and then erroring out and telling me it cannot update apt or it is out of date
[05:10] <w0rd54> any suggestions?
[05:10] <Niomi> how can I change the default image viewing application in nautilus?
[05:10] <dueyfinster> nalioth: What even if it was an old 486? I am running Breezy and find it works excellent on my pc thats just over 6 months old.
[05:10] <nalioth> ubotu: tell dueyfinster about xubuntu
[05:11] <Stormx2> quick command to find out what kernal I am running?
[05:11] <w0rd54> Stormx2: uname -a I think
[05:11] <Stormx2> w0rd54: thanks
[05:12] <DShepherd> Stormx2: uname -s
[05:12] <MagicFab> silent_scream: http://www.lirc.org/ ?
[05:12] <DShepherd> Stormx2: nah scrap that uname -r
[05:13] <DShepherd> uname -r gives you your kernel version
[05:13] <silent_scream> MagicFab, i installed it but i dont know how it works...
[05:13] <DShepherd> Stormx2: man uname for more info
[05:13] <MagicFab> w0rd54: bad CD ?
[05:14] <EmergeTW> does anyone here have the UT2004 demo working?
[05:14] <MagicFab> silent_scream: did you actually read any docs from the site ? http://www.lirc.org/html/index.html
[05:14] <xNinja> hello...i got a hp pavilion dv1000 laptop and i tried alot of linux distros but they all didnt detect my pcmcia controller and one of the is the ubuntu breezy
[05:14] <Stormx2> barney@ubuntu:~/kernel-2.6-driver$ make
[05:14] <Stormx2> bash: make: command not found
[05:14] <Stormx2> =(
[05:15] <nalioth> Stormx2: install "build-essential"
[05:15] <Stormx2> nalioth: k
[05:15] <tj_> how do i configure my fat32 partition to be mounted automaically in fstab?
[05:15] <tj_> so i got ownership of it, not root
[05:15] <MagicFab> DShepherd: there's another command to actually find out what distribution is installed... anyone ?
[05:15] <Stormx2> !tell tj_ about windowsdrives
[05:16] <DShepherd> cat /etc/issue
[05:16] <w0rd54> MagicFab: I'm using pxe based kernel
[05:16] <w0rd54> I got down to commmand prompt
[05:16] <norskfjord> Groups for clamav-daemon (space-seperated):
[05:16] <tj_> thanks
[05:16] <w0rd54> and I found that apt-get . sources was commented out for some reason
[05:16] <w0rd54> I have the seed file with the mirror info in there as well...so that's why I'm confused
[05:16] <norskfjord> what should I enter? what groups am I a member of by default?
[05:16] <Stormx2> what is the path to the linux kernel source code?
[05:16] <wickedpuppy> norskfjord, id
[05:16] <DShepherd> MagicFab: /etc/issue works
[05:17] <EmergeTW> anyone know if there is a similar package to compat-libstdc++ in ubuntu?
[05:17] <Stormx2> Anyone? ^,^
[05:17] <wickedpuppy> Stormx2, /usr/src
[05:17] <MagicFab> DShepherd: that's a text file
[05:17] <MagicFab> although it has some info
[05:17] <MagicFab> !kernel
[05:18] <tgwj> will installing kubuntu-desktop (to try kde) modify any aspect of the ubuntu desktop ? (including boot,login and desktop artwork)
[05:18] <xNinja> how to install the newest kernel in ubuntu
[05:18] <MagicFab> Stormx2: what r u trying to do
[05:18] <wickedpuppy> xNinja, newest as in newer than the ones in repo ?
[05:18] <Stormx2> wickedpuppy: That folder is empty
[05:19] <Greg_Wah> hi, is there anyone on here that knows a reasonable amount about installing mysql on Ubuntu?
[05:19] <wickedpuppy> Stormx2, then you got no klernel source
[05:19] <Stormx2> MagicFab: Install a new ipaq kernal module that is compatible with my spv e200
[05:19] <wickedpuppy> if you got by apt-get .. thats where the source is
[05:19] <Stormx2> wickedpuppy: Right, how should I get it?
[05:19] <MagicFab> tgwj: the "ubuntu" desktop is actually Gnome
[05:19] <xNinja> the most newest kernel may catch my pcmcia controller
[05:19] <Stormx2> sudo apt-get install what?
[05:19] <root89> anyone using 2.6.14 kernel?
[05:19] <w0rd54> can anyone give me a slight hand with this seeded install?  anyone experienced with automated installs here?
[05:19] <MagicFab> You may find that some items appear on the desktop if you repeatedly login/logout switching from KDE to Gnome
[05:19] <wickedpuppy> Stormx2, use synaptic ... i forgot the exact name
[05:20] <Stormx2> wickedpuppy: k
[05:20] <tgwj> MagicFab, i know, but usplash and all the rest of the cream on the pie is not
[05:20] <MagicFab> Stormx2: looking it up
[05:20] <MagicFab> tgwj: no
[05:20] <xNinja> wickedpuppy yes
[05:20] <Jemt> Greetings. Is MySQL 5 in repositories? If, what is it called? If not, where can I get a package containing all I need ? - Thanks ! :)
[05:21] <bur[n] er> Jemt: apt-cache search mysql
[05:21] <MagicFab> Stormx2: look for kernel-source
[05:21] <wickedpuppy> xNinja, then you got to get the source and compile .. and the change the menu.lst
[05:21] <MagicFab> Stormx2: Install the one that correpsonds to your kernel version of course
[05:21] <tgwj> MagicFab, ok ubuntu and gnome work closely together and many apps are part of gnome, but the artwork, (to some extent) the menu structure and the boot process are ununtu
[05:21] <xNinja> i see
[05:22] <nagual> where is httpd.conf in ubuntu?
[05:22] <wickedpuppy> Jemt, search in synaptic
[05:22] <MagicFab> Jemt: no it's not.
[05:22] <Jemt> bur[n] er: Done that. All I can find is MySQL-common
[05:22] <tgwj> nagual, /etc/apache i believe
[05:22] <Jemt> MagicFab: Ok, thanks
[05:22] <bur[n] er> Jemt: in that case, no mysql5 in repositories ;)
[05:22] <Jemt> :(
[05:23] <Stormx2> MagicFab: There isn't a package which corresponds to my kernal version...
[05:23] <Jemt> How can I get it ?
[05:23] <Jemt> Odd that PHP5 is represented, mysql not
[05:23] <bur[n] er> Jemt: mysql.org, get the source, and compile it
[05:23] <MagicFab> tgwj: can't remember
[05:23] <xNinja> thats the one right wickedpuppy linux-2.6.14.tar.bz2 ?
[05:23] <Stormx2> MagicFab: I'm on 2.6.12, it has 2.4.27, 2.6.10 and 2.6.11
[05:23] <MagicFab> Stormx2: what's your kernel v
[05:23] <wickedpuppy> xNinja, yes ... 14 is the latest
[05:23] <Jemt> bur[n] er: No thanks. Don't wan't to compile myself. Life is too short
[05:23] <wickedpuppy> xNinja, the reason you need the latest is because ?
[05:23] <bur[n] er> Jemt: you asked how to get it :P  oh well
[05:23] <Unreal_IX>  thats strange I Ctrl-Alt-Backspace and it restarts in the logon screen ok but if I do it a second time I just get a black screen?
[05:23] <wickedpuppy> it will be in repo soon ...
[05:23] <Stormx2> MagicFab: Like I said, 2.6.12
[05:23] <CookedGryphon> how do i configure apt-get to use my proxy settings?
[05:24] <MagicFab> Stormx2: sorry, I meant linux-source
[05:24] <wickedpuppy> CookedGryphon, use bash steeings
[05:24] <Jemt> bur[n] er: I'm pretty sure that there is a deb package somewhere.
[05:24] <wickedpuppy> settings i mean
[05:24] <tgwj> CookedGryphon, try `dpkg-reconfigure apt`
[05:24] <Stormx2> MagicFab: What do you mean?
[05:24] <bur[n] er> Unreal_IX: you can go to a console "ctrl+alt+f2" and then "sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart"
[05:24] <xNinja> wickedpuppy because i tried alot of linux ditros and they all didnt detect my my hp pavilion dv1000 laptop pcmcia controller
[05:24] <Greg_Wah> I've installed MySql and when I try and start/do anything with it, I get the error "error: 'Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock' (2)'
[05:24] <Greg_Wah> "
[05:24] <bur[n] er> Jemt: .deb does not automatically mean it's for ubuntu
[05:24] <MagicFab> Stormx2: I just checked, search for "linux-source" in synaptic or apt-get
[05:24] <xNinja> wickedpuppy do u suggest something ?
[05:24] <Stormx2> MagicFab: I'm trying to get the linux kernel source but it doesn't have it in 2.6.12, which is my v
[05:24] <Jemt> bur[n] er: I know
[05:25] <Unreal_IX> ok thanks burn[n] er I'll try that
[05:25] <bur[n] er> Jemt: cool... in that case, good luck with it :)  what's so special about mysql5 anyway?
[05:25] <robotgeek> Greg_Wah: ah, okay...
[05:25] <nalioth> Stormx2: look for linux-source
[05:25] <MagicFab> Stormx2: I previously said search "kernel-source" when it's really "linux-source"
[05:25] <CookedGryphon> wickedpuppy:  how?
[05:25] <robotgeek> Greg_Wah: did you install the 4.1 version or just plain mysql-server?
[05:25] <bur[n] er> Greg_Wah: u started it via "sudo /etc/init.d/mysql start" ??
[05:25] <Stormx2> MagicFab: Found it :) Thanks to you and nalioth
[05:25] <nagual> thats a no go tgwj
[05:26] <MagicFab> Stormx2: I believe you'll also need linux-headers
[05:26] <Greg_Wah> robotgeek: I've installed both at various points of trying to get it to work but last thing I did was to uninstall the 4.1 components via synaptic and install plain mysql-server
[05:26] <Stormx2> MagicFab: OK
[05:26] <tgwj> /etc/apache2/apache2.conf
[05:26] <Greg_Wah> bur[n] er: yes I did
[05:26] <xNinja> wickedpuppy you there?
[05:26] <Stormx2> MagicFab: linux-source is 40 megs so heh
[05:26] <wickedpuppy> eh CookedGryphon i think tgwj
[05:26] <MagicFab> Stormx2: also check http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=85064
[05:26] <wickedpuppy> eh CookedGryphon i think tgwj  told ya the easier answer
[05:27] <wickedpuppy> xNinja, yah .. sorry i am writing a story on my site
[05:27] <nagual> tgwj, says no such file or directory
[05:27] <robotgeek> Greg_Wah: I had the same problem, 4.0 has a known bug. install 4.1, and i'll try to guide u thru it. went thru the same thing two days ago
[05:27] <MagicFab> !kernelcompiling
[05:27] <ubotu> I guess kernelcompiling is http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=85064
[05:27] <nagual> NM.  Typed the wrong thing
[05:27] <Jemt> bur[n] er: MySQL 5 got some features I want
[05:27] <xNinja> no problem tyt but what u say about my problem ?
[05:27] <Greg_Wah> robotgeek: Thanks a lot, I'll give it a go now
[05:27] <tgwj> nagual is apache2 installed ?
[05:27] <wickedpuppy> xNinja, there are probably guides on the web for building the kernel from the source
[05:27] <CookedGryphon> i installed kubuntu base and its all ugly and none of the shortcuts are in the menu and half the butons don't work, there's a minimal theme and it crashes, I think it may be because when i installed kubuntu-base using synaptic apt tried to get some stuff from teh internet and couldn't
[05:27] <xNinja> i'll do that tonigh
[05:27] <nagual> found it.   thanx
[05:27] <xNinja> tonight:D
[05:27] <MagicFab> wickedpuppy: I just posted that
[05:28] <wickedpuppy> oh sorry
[05:28] <CookedGryphon> tgwj but when i do that it doesn't do anything
[05:28] <wickedpuppy> i am a bit busy writing something ... :P
[05:28] <tgwj> CookedGryphon, then try dpkg-reconfigure apt-get
[05:28] <CookedGryphon> tgjw how do i set my proxy settings?
[05:28] <xNinja> take your time and thanks :)
[05:28] <MagicFab> wickedpuppy: no need to be sorry ! :D
[05:29] <CookedGryphon> no, its apt, but it jstu waits a while then coes back to a prompt
[05:29] <MagicFab> CookedGryphon: System > Preferences > Network proxy
[05:29] <CookedGryphon> MagicFab: don't patronise me
[05:29] <EvilPaddy> can someone help me with Wine, the only option I have is for Win 3.1, 95 or 98 - is it possible to get a later version?
[05:29] <CookedGryphon> that just works for gnome things
[05:30] <MagicFab> CookedGryphon: ? sorry, didn't follow previous questions. No patronizing here, no, no ;)
[05:30] <tgwj> CookedGryphon, it was kust guesswork. i seem to remember debian installer asking me, and it being in debconf would make sence
[05:30] <Greg_Wah> robotgeek: Have uninstalled the regular packages, am in the process of installing 4.1 server, client and common
[05:30] <MagicFab> CookedGryphon: what app did you want to change/setup proxy for ?
[05:30] <tgwj> and that was a while ago
[05:31] <robotgeek> Greg_Wah: yeah, removed the regular ones and install 4.1 everything, while u are there..get mysql-admin also :)
[05:31] <MagicFab> EvilPaddy: what version do you want to run ? I'd suggest trying qemu - longer to learn, but better
[05:31] <Greg_Wah> robotgeek: kk, done, now what?
[05:32] <Jemt> Back. Do I have MySQL installed if I have mysql-common installed ?
[05:32] <eriksti> What should I download here? trying to get medoosa working ..  http://ccdoc.sourceforge.net/htdocs/downloads.htm
[05:32] <Jemt> I can't connect to it using the root linux account
[05:32] <robotgeek> Greg_Wah: first we have to create mysql users, i suppose
[05:32] <onkarshinde> I have messed with my xorg.conf and now the scroll whell on mouse doesn't work. What line DO I need to add?
[05:33] <CookedGryphon> MagicFab: when i installed kubuntu-base it tried to get some files from the internet in the postinstall but couldn't, and so i tried apt-get and it doesn't seem to b configured, so i'm sat ina decrepit version of kde, no themes, no buttons working, no shortcuts etc
[05:33] <EvilPaddy> MagicFab, I want to be able to run apps like MS Visio?
[05:33] <Greg_Wah> onkarshinde: mousewheel.work = true
[05:33] <MagicFab> EvilPaddy: which version of Visio ?
[05:34] <w0rd54> does anyone have a link for the ubuntu mirror list?
[05:34] <MagicFab> CookedGryphon: can you boot in safe mode ?
[05:34] <w0rd54> for packages etc.
[05:34] <EvilPaddy> MagicFab, 2003
[05:34] <MagicFab> CookedGryphon: (rescue, sorry)
[05:34] <wickedpuppy> EvilPaddy, nope
[05:34] <deFrysk> onkarshinde, Option          "ZAxisMapping"          "4 5"
[05:34] <Jemt> Back. Do I have MySQL installed if I have mysql-common installed ? If I try to connect to the database (as 'root' on 'localhost') it failes.
[05:34] <EvilPaddy> wickedpuppy, ?
[05:34] <Greg_Wah> robotgeek: And how do I do that? sorry for being so needy, its just I've tried so many different things to get this working
[05:34] <CookedGryphon> MagicFab i can boot and get apps unning, in fact i can give up and go back to gnome, i just wanted to try out kde, and its not impressing me so far,
[05:34] <wickedpuppy> even crossover doesn't support the latest version
[05:35] <MagicFab> EvilPaddy: I'm guessing that only wokrs on Win2K or WinXP. You'd need to have a full licence of either, and create a system image for qemu to load.
[05:35] <nalioth> CookedGryphon: you dont have internet?
[05:35] <wickedpuppy> but you could try .. tell me if it works ... i wanna know
[05:35] <robotgeek> Greg_Wah: trying to pull it up, i am new to mysql too :)
[05:35] <CookedGryphon> nailoth yeah i do
[05:35] <nalioth> CookedGryphon: n/m i'm suffering from "d'oh"
[05:35] <CookedGryphon> that's how i'm talking to u lol
[05:35] <EvilPaddy> MagicFab, Will it work with vis 2003?
[05:35] <MagicFab> EvilPaddy: WinXP is more difficult to setup because of the licencing /registration process. I would aim at Win2K.
[05:35] <nalioth> CookedGryphon: "sudo apt-get -f install" doesnt complete your kubuntu-desktop install?
[05:36] <MagicFab> EvilPaddy: I believe the qemu package is standard in Ubuntu. Also see the docs at http://fabrice.bellard.free.fr/qemu/qemu-doc.html
[05:36] <EvilPaddy> MagicFab, can i msg you
[05:36] <CookedGryphon> nailoth well unless this is it.. in which case i'm jsut gna go straight back to gnome
[05:37] <MagicFab> CookedGryphon: I would completely remove kde and reinstall it.
[05:37] <CookedGryphon> cos its looking a bit wondows 3.1ish
[05:37] <Jemt> OMG! I just - by accident - removed my apache.conf file. How do I recover it ??
[05:37] <CookedGryphon> Magicfab, how do i do that? cos u can't say reinstall the metapackage can you?
[05:37] <MagicFab> EvilPaddy: sure
[05:37] <CookedGryphon> and there's too many to go through by hand
[05:37] <djib> is the wiki on ubuntu.com down ?
[05:38] <hre> I have a problem with a hp laserjet 1022 USB 1.1, the data light blinks, but it takes a very very long time before it begins printing the page. Any ideas?
[05:38] <MagicFab> CookedGryphon: I know in synaptic you can, so apt-get in command line definitely provides for it
[05:38] <MagicFab> hre: perhaps it's converting to postscript
[05:38] <CookedGryphon> MagicFab: I can use synaptic
[05:38] <odie5533> How do I format a hdd to ext3?
[05:38] <MagicFab> hre: have you checked for help at linux-printing.org ?
[05:38] <hre> MagicFab, no i havent, thans for the tip
[05:38] <robotgeek> Greg_Wah: i think i did a sudo dpkg-reconfigure mysql-server4.1
[05:38] <CookedGryphon> but when i tried reinstall kubuntu-base, it didn't try to reinstall all the dependencies, why would it
[05:39] <Greg_Wah> cool
[05:39] <Greg_Wah> cheers
[05:39] <nalioth> CookedGryphon: "sudo apt-get -f install"
[05:39] <odie5533> anyone know how to fully format a hdd to ext3?
[05:39] <MagicFab> CookedGryphon: sometimes depending on what you did at your first rty, it may have installed *some* dpeendencies, not all thus the unstable result
[05:39] <hre> MagicFab, strange thing is: it worked in hoary...
[05:39] <MagicFab> odie5533: I like using qtparted
[05:39] <Jemt> How do I recovery the apache.conf file for Apache2 ?
[05:40] <MagicFab> odie5533: simple, visual, although a bit slow
[05:40] <MagicFab> !filereocvery
[05:40] <ubotu> MagicFab: Wish i knew
[05:40] <labandus> hi men

[05:42] <djib> can you access the wiki on ubuntu.com ?
[05:42] <djib> it seems down
[05:42] <djib> I want to know if it's just me or not
[05:43] <EmergeTW> CookedGryphon & MagicFab: perfect, thanks
[05:43] <Greg_Wah> robotgeek: aha, back to this old problem "ERROR 1045 (28000): Access denied for user 'root'@'localhost' (using password: NO)
[05:43] <Greg_Wah> "
[05:43] <labandus> MagicFab, now i wanna remove the partition which contains the Debian version, how can i do??
[05:43] <Greg_Wah> robotgeek: from sudo mysql -u root -p
[05:43] <nalioth> CookedGryphon: join #kubuntu-offtopic please for more help
[05:43] <robotgeek> Greg_Wah: don't sudo
[05:44] <MagicFab> labandus: I'd use an install CD and do it with the partition tool (yeah, it's text)
[05:44] <CookedGryphon> kubuntu offtopic? how is it offtopic?
[05:44] <wickedpuppy> you can use mysql as normal user .. no need to be root
[05:44] <defcon8> CookedGryphon, #kubuntu
[05:44] <MagicFab> djib: wiki looks fine to me
[05:44] <CookedGryphon> ah bugger it, i'm off back to gnome

[05:50] <nalioth> Greg_Wah: you must be registered to priv chat on freenode
[05:50] <nalioth> ubotu: tell Greg_Wah about register
[05:50] <haegar> hi
[05:50] <MagicFab> stephank: also try network-manager
[05:51] <sukru> anywayz ty...kisses....happy ramadan for muslims :=)
[05:51] <labandus> wickedpuppy,  but now i don't make the difference beetwen a Debian-Partition a an a Ubuntu Partition
[05:51] <yi> i'm trying to upgrade gamin to 0.1.7 from the debian .deb's
[05:51] <yi> how would i go about doing that?
[05:51] <yi> i can't just use dpkg -i since it gives me unresolved dependencies
[05:51] <Stormx2> yi: dpkg -i whatever.deb
[05:51] <odie5533> you have to resolve them then
[05:51] <NoUse> yi don't install debian debs
[05:51] <Stormx2> yi: use apt-get to fix the dependencies
[05:51] <haegar> is it possible and a good idea to use an usb stick as a swap disk and /tmp ?
[05:51] <bur[n] er> yi: after the dpkg -i, do apt-get -f install
[05:52] <LeaChim> i've installed festival but when i use (SayText "Hi") it doesn't make a sound. how can i make it work ;)
[05:52] <NoUse> haegar not a good idea
[05:52] <MagicFab> someone told me prevously how to get a backtrace. lost the link ! anyone ?
[05:52] <yi> bur[n] er: the dpkg -i won't go through though heh
[05:52] <bur[n] er> MagicFab: gdb
[05:52] <wrld|BuRn> hey ppl
[05:52] <yi> NoUse: hurm
[05:52] <bur[n] er> yi: use ubuntu packages then ;)
[05:52] <wrld|BuRn> can i ask a really noobish question: how do i run a .sh file in terminal ?
[05:52] <yi> well i'm doing this to try and triage a bug
[05:52] <CaBlGuY-out> hey NoUse  o/
[05:52] <bur[n] er> yi: even if it doesn't go through, you should still be able to do apt-get -f install after and possibly fix it
[05:52] <LeaChim> wrld|BuRn, sh filename.sh
[05:52] <MagicFab> haegar: what do u want to accomplish by doing that ? consider encrypting those is sensiive info is the issue
[05:52] <weasl77> FYI: printing problems & experiment
[05:52] <NoUse> wrld|BuRn sh file.sh
[05:52] <yi> NoUse: how exactly does the split between 'gamin' 'libgamin' and libgamin-dev work
[05:52] <wrld|BuRn> thanks
[05:53] <NoUse> yi I'm not sure
[05:53] <LeaChim> i've installed festival but when i use (SayText "Hi") it doesn't make a sound. how can i make it work ;)
[05:53] <weasl77> connecting over a parallel port, to Canon 610 or Epson 740: sometimes prints what looks like postscript (in Windows), but more often often just sits there in a huff.. It will allow me to delete the print job, no prob. the very first time I tried (epson) printed the 1st page of the test page, then locked up.
[05:53] <weasl77>  When installed, I just follwed through the 'wizard', selected the 'epson parallel port' for the epson & similarly for the canon.

[05:53] <NoUse> !tell wrld|BuRn about ati
[05:53] <weasl77> have tried kubuntu live (and on a limited system): installed and printed from the canon fine (parallel), whilst there was a driver problem for the epson. However it did print postscript instructions over both parallel and usb interfaces
[05:53] <weasl77>  conclusion: ubuntu & gnome have a problem??
[05:53] <NoUse> wrld|BuRn follow those instructions
[05:53] <MagicFab> !printing
[05:53] <ubotu> printing is, like, totally, https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupportComponentsPrinters or http://www.linuxprinting.org
[05:54] <MagicFab> !tell weasl77 about printing
[05:54] <CaBlGuY-out> NoUse  ttyl, just on my wayn out..  :)
[05:54] <wrld|BuRn> thanks :) gonna go spend another half hour giving it another go :D
[05:54] <weasl77> got it thanks:-)
[05:55] <weasl77> thought you might be interested in the difference between ububtu & kubuntu!
[05:55] <MagicFab> haegar: depending on the kind of USB key, you may kill it (some have limited read/write life)

[06:07] <mc|amb> will the partition magic free trial resize my windows part. or do I have to get the full version?
[06:08] <bur[n] er> mc|amb: partition magic is scary... i wouldn't trust my data with it... use qtparted from a live linux iso... or use the built-in ubuntu installer partition resizing
[06:08] <wrld|BuRn> i feel dumb asking but how do i check what kernel version im using ?
[06:08] <bur[n] er> wrld|BuRn: uname -a
[06:08] <LeaChim> bur[n] er, qtparted can't resize ntfs i thought :/
[06:08] <bur[n] er> LeaChim: it can
[06:08] <bur[n] er> LeaChim: gparted can't
[06:08] <Misiek2000> why sagem fast 800 lose connection after connect?

[06:11] <zando> Whistler, delete the library than ubuntu don't need
[06:12] <zando> Whistler, install deborphan
[06:12] <Syruss> is there a way to create a symbolic link to a folder in a similar way to right click create shortcut in windows?
[06:12] <mamoru> Syruss, man ln
[06:12] <bur[n] er> mc|amb: odd... should work... in any event, if you want a windows solution, don't use partition magic, i'd suggest "paragon partition manager"
[06:12] <Welly> Hello all.. i'm trying to set up an NFS share... have gone to system/administration/shared foldeers
[06:12] <EloraHRanma> mamoru: Those repositories seem to be down
[06:12] <Syruss> mamoru: I know all about ln -s etc... I want a gui way :)
[06:12] <mc|amb> bur[n] er: ok, thanks for your time
[06:12] <EloraHRanma> mamoru: Just don't worry too much
[06:12] <mamoru> Syruss, i c
[06:12] <Welly> the drop down for "share with" only shows SMB not NFS
[06:12] <bur[n] er> mc|amb: sure
[06:13] <mamoru> EloraHRanma, just wondering if  it's down
[06:13] <mamoru> only for me
[06:13] <Syruss> I know you can do it via dragging with middle mouse, but I'd like a way where I don't need to start with my destination folder being visible..
[06:13] <EloraHRanma> mamoru: Anyway, have a look at /etc/apt/sources.list and check the ones that fail
[06:13] <karen> ber(n)er--- it's a 123greetings site. i'm new to this whole linux thingy.  I can't seem to figure it out, very different from windows
[06:13] <LeaChim> and again: i've installed festival but when i use (SayText "Hi") it doesn't make a sound. how can i make it work ;)
[06:13] <Syruss> well, it's not for me really..it's for someone else
[06:13] <Welly> any ideas what the problem is? on this machine, it prompted me to install NFS
[06:13] <TuxToaster> Welly: you mount the shares as folders on your filesystem, though I myself am having problems getting the server to start sharing them in the first place
[06:14] <Welly> TuxToaster: ah! oh ok.. :) good luck! i'll try that though
[06:14] <EloraHRanma> So, noone has problems with gcc-3.4?
[06:14] <bur[n] er> karen: using firefox i assume? firefox is the same in windows and linux
[06:14] <Syruss> it's just about the same
[06:14] <karen> yes firefox
[06:14] <TuxToaster> bur[n] er: almost hte same
[06:14] <TuxToaster> lol
[06:14] <Syruss> apparently the prefrences menu is in a different place
[06:14] <mamoru> EloraHRanma, that's all the repositories i have in my /etc/apt/sources.list file enabled
[06:14] <TuxToaster> yeah, it's edit > preferences instead of tools > options
[06:14] <bur[n] er> karen: 123greetings.com works for me... maybe you're missing flash?
[06:14] <Spudchat> hi everyone..im looking to share my internet connection with another computer do i need to install any kind of special packages?
[06:15] <mamoru> !repositories
[06:15] <ubotu> How to add repositories:  http://wiki.ubuntu.com/AddingRepositoriesHowto See !sources for example soruces.list
[06:15] <bur[n] er> TuxToaster: potato/potato
[06:15] <DShepherd> what peer to peer clients on ubuntu you guys use? I want to have idea of some good ones..so I can choose one...or two
[06:15] <DShepherd> ?
[06:15] <Spudchat> btw im connecting wirelessly and would like to share the connection via ethernet
[06:15] <bur[n] er> !tell karen about flash
[06:15] <EloraHRanma> mamoru:  Paste your sources.list in paste---
[06:15] <TuxToaster> bur[n] er: lol
[06:15] <wrld|BuRn> I just got this message "Could not open lock file /var/lib/apt/lists/lock - open (13 Permission denied)" any ideas what it means ?
[06:15] <TuxToaster> hmm.
[06:15] <TuxToaster> !tell TuxToaster about nfs
[06:15] <TuxToaster> worth a shot
[06:15] <zando> wrld|BuRn, are you root?
[06:15] <karen> bur(n)er--- how do i go about installing flash , nothing seems to work with this linux
[06:15] <EvilPaddy> Is it straightforward to make a .deb from a tar.gz?
[06:15] <wrld|BuRn> um
[06:15] <bur[n] er> wrld|BuRn: some other application is using apt...  is synaptic open?
[06:15] <EloraHRanma> mamoru: Or just use the normal ones. I'm having no problem
[06:15] <EvilPaddy> or to mka e a.deb from RPM?
[06:16] <bur[n] er> karen: check yer messages ;) ubotu gave you a link to flash stuff
[06:16] <nalioth> Spudchat: you have both a wired nic and a functioning wireless card?
[06:16] <LeaChim> EvilPaddy, making a deb from an rpm is
[06:16] <wrld|BuRn> i have terminal, xchat and firefox open
[06:16] <deFrysk> EvilPaddy, better not , what package ?
[06:16] <bur[n] er> karen: as a side note... try typing "bur<tab>" to use nick-complete ;)
[06:16] <nalioth> ubotu: tell EvilPaddy about checkinstall
[06:16] <Spudchat> nalioth yes
[06:16] <bushk> anybody have any experience with yeahconsole?
[06:16] <wrld|BuRn> as for root no I'm logged in as my main profile
[06:16] <LeaChim> EvilPaddy, and if the tar.gz contains the binaries in the right place it is for that as well
[06:16] <nalioth> ubotu: tell Spudchat about firestarter
[06:16] <mamoru> EloraHRanma, http://paste.ubuntulinux.nl/3982
[06:16] <mc|amb> whats the command to erase a dir that isn't empty?
[06:16] <private_meta> great... now ubuntu doesn't boot again
[06:16] <EvilPaddy> deFrysk, VMWare Workstation
[06:17] <Spudchat> thanks...it always seems your the one helping me :)
[06:17] <TuxToaster> why does ubotu give the wiki links in https?
[06:17] <nalioth> Spudchat: firestarter will allow you to set up internet sharing
[06:17] <zando> wrld|BuRn, open a console and logg as root
[06:17] <bur[n] er> EvilPaddy: it's not to go from .tar.gz to .deb, but .rpm to .deb can be done via aliean
[06:17] <karen> thanks guys--- you're very helpful.
[06:17] <EvilPaddy> LeaChim, VmWare
[06:17] <nalioth> TuxToaster: b/c the wiki is secure
[06:17] <bur[n] er> TuxToaster: cause https is cooler and encrypted :)
[06:17] <TuxToaster> lol
[06:17] <wrld|BuRn> zando, um how do i login as root ?
[06:17] <TuxToaster> seems wierd to want an encrypted wiki to me :P
[06:17] <roshan> !factoid
[06:17] <bur[n] er> the more encrypted data on the itnernet the better...  even if it's trivial
[06:18] <ubotu> A list of all my factoids can be found at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au
[06:18] <wrld|BuRn> I just installed ubuntu about an hour ago
[06:18] <deFrysk> http is soooooo 9ties
[06:18] <_jason> bur[n] er:  why is that?
[06:18] <nalioth> !root
[06:18] <ubotu> hmm... root is disabled in Ubuntu, you can read all about it on http://wiki.ubuntu.com/RootSudo
[06:18] <zando> wrld|BuRn, do the command sudo su
[06:18] <TuxToaster> then again the one we have at work is encrypted but inaccessable outside of the local subnet
[06:18] <TuxToaster> lol
[06:18] <nalioth> zando: please dont do that
[06:18] <bur[n] er> TuxToaster: think of it this way... if only banking stuff is encrypted, a hacker knows where to look... now if everything is encrypted and they decrypt the wiki part... they've wasted time for nothing
[06:18] <mamoru> EloraHRanma, i used these repositories all the time, but today they stopped working somehow :(
[06:18] <mc|amb> how do I erase a dir that isn't empty?
[06:18] <zando> nalioth, why not?
[06:18] <nalioth> ubotu: tell mc|amb about cli
[06:18] <EvilPaddy> LeaChim, How can I do RPM to Deb then?
[06:18] <nalioth> zando: root is disabled in ubuntu for a reason
[06:18] <bur[n] er> zando: sudo is the 'ubuntu way' :)
[06:18] <Rockett18> mc|amb> rm -rf directory name
[06:18] <roshan> mc|amb: use rm -r <dirname>
[06:18] <nalioth> EvilPaddy: did you get your msg from ubotu?
[06:18] <bur[n] er> EvilPaddy: man alien
[06:18] <EloraHRanma> Then they are probably down
[06:18] <EvilPaddy> nalioth, nope
[06:19] <nalioth> EvilPaddy: please look for it
[06:19] <nalioth> EvilPaddy: rpms are NOT advised
[06:19] <highvoltage> what is the launchpad registry?
[06:19] <mc|amb> Rockett18, roshan: thanks

[06:20] <mandu> welly helo

[06:27] <EloraHRanma> mamoru: As a matter of fact, if you use my last listed repository, you can get enlightenment DR17 -removing DR16), if you have any interest
[06:27] <eedge> how can I make a link whilst not in root?, as in a desktop link.
[06:28] <EloraHRanma> eedge: ln -s ?
[06:28] <DShepherd> asdf1234: go to system and click Logout and then shutdown
[06:28] <EloraHRanma> eedge: man ln
[06:28] <Pygi> bur[n] er: I don't like Anaconda :)
[06:28] <eedge> thanks

[06:29] <nalioth> EloraHRanma: which repo you use for dr17?
[06:29] <mamoru> EloraHRanma, thx, I'm satisfied with gnome :)
[06:29] <EloraHRanma> nalioth: Shadoi, although it lacks evidence and overrides DR16...
[06:30] <EloraHRanma> nalioth: deb http://soulmachine.net/breezy unstable/
[06:30] <Blueeye> EloraHRanma, how can i do to login ssh other server  in linux ubuntu ?
[06:30] <nalioth> EloraHRanma: you pin your apt like the forum says? or just let the latest thing install?
[06:31] <NoUse> Blueeye ssh user@hostname
[06:31] <EloraHRanma> EloraHRanma: pin? If you mean the preferences, I do
[06:31] <Blueeye> NoUse,  thanks alot :)
[06:31] <asdf1234> can i install aplications such as pagemaker ?

[06:32] <pppoe_dude> hi all... i need a program to help my friend remotely, however, he is using windows, and im using linux, so i need an easy vnc server for him to install
[06:32] <EloraHRanma> nalioth: I add the line to prefer 999 over 16, and updated
[06:32] <pppoe_dude> as i have no way of testing a windows server
[06:32] <Stormx2> pppoe_dude: VNC comes with ubuntu, i beleive
[06:32] <EloraHRanma> nalioth: The rest of the stuff, by hand
[06:32] <shadeofgrey> hey hidde are you in here?
[06:32] <NoUse> asdf1234 unless it has a Linux version, probably not
[06:32] <shadeofgrey> Hi Everybody
[06:32] <shadeofgrey> sorry ive been gomen so long my house got pounded by wilma
[06:32] <Stormx2> pppoe_dude: Who is server, you or him?
[06:33] <EloraHRanma> C'mon! Someone must have a working Linksys WUSB54G...
[06:33] <pppoe_dude> Stormx2 he is.
[06:33] <NoUse> pppoe_dude tightvnc
[06:33] <LeaChim> pppoe_dude, ultravnc.sf.net is useful
[06:33] <pppoe_dude> NoUse: is that just point-and-click? coz hes not too comp literate
[06:33] <NoUse> pppoe_dude yeah, I think so
[06:33] <pppoe_dude> LeaChim: yes theyt seem to have a standalone server, but how much config is there?
[06:33] <odie5533> On a single hdd setup, should one use 2 partitions one for files 1 for os or does it not matter on a signle hdd setup?
[06:33] <bomek> Anyone have an explanation why i can't unselect agpgart support in kernel configuration?
[06:34] <asdf1234> ohh ...
[06:34] <nalioth> EloraHRanma: if only they'd put up ppc ubuntu friendly source code
[06:34] <NoUse> asdf1234 you can usually find equivilent apps though
[06:34] <mamoru> EloraHRanma, EvilPaddy, bur[n] er, after "apt-get update" synaptic worked
[06:35] <EloraHRanma> nalioth: PPC is much more complicated... That's what you pay for having a better computer =)
[06:35] <Kibou> pppoe_dude: he just has to start winvnc.exe and you should be able to connect

[06:36] <EvilPaddy> Stormx2, Whats synce?
[06:36] <nalioth> EloraHRanma: it's not a ppc issue, it's a 'ubuntu compiler' issue (cant compile e17 on ppc or x86 locally)

[06:52] <electron_> I can only play audio cds with cdcd
[06:52] <electron_> :/
[06:52] <bur[n] er> electron_: check your "output" plugin with xmms?  although... if you can't play with mpg123... maybe you need to start "esd" ??  I have no idea... i'm reachin
[06:52] <electron_> how do I start esd?
[06:52] <Stormx2> bur[n] er: XMMS has MP3 in-the-box, you don't need mpg123
[06:52] <bur[n] er> raphink: por que?
[06:52] <bur[n] er> electron_: alt+f2, type "esd"
[06:53] <Stormx2> electron_: In preferences, change the output plugin to eSound. I had this problem in hoary

[06:53] <electron_> where?
[06:53] <raphink> it links to directories that don't exist on my conf
[06:53] <bur[n] er> raphink: that was from apache1
[06:53] <electron_> where do I type this in console?
[06:53] <bur[n] er> raphink: u don't have /var/www ??
[06:53] <Stormx2> electron_: Arn't you in XMMS? thats what you want, right? MP3 in XMMS?
[06:53] <bur[n] er> electron_: when you do "alt+f2" then a run dialog appears
[06:53] <electron_> yes
[06:54] <raphink> sure I have /var/www bur[n] er
[06:54] <raphink> my apache2 works fine
[06:54] <raphink> it's only php that doesn't work
[06:54] <electron_> nope
[06:54] <Stormx2> electron_: Open XMMS, right click > preferences or options, i forget
[06:54] <raphink> and my httpd.conf is almost void
[06:54] <electron_> doesn't do anything
[06:54] <raphink> empty
[06:54] <raphink> apache 1 is not installed on my comp
[06:54] <paulproteus> raphink: a2enmod php4, iirc
[06:54] <raphink> but I have apache 1 examples
[06:54] <Stormx2> electron_: What doesn't do anything...?
[06:54] <bur[n] er> raphink: check out /etc/apache2/apache.conf :) apache2 changes the .conf file name :)
[06:55] <w0rd54> I have a bootcd with grub loaded on it, I'm wishing to boot from teh harddrive's MBR (by default) so cd can be inserted and then if you don't press a key it boots to HD by default....I am having trouble booting linux using rootnoverify, chainloader+1...it will boot fat32/ntfs just fine using the cd but when I install linux os with GRUB the bootcd of grub won't let it boot....any suggestions?
[06:55] <raphink> I have apache2 installed yet no examples of conf
[06:55] <paulproteus> raphink: http://www.debian-administration.org/articles/207
[06:55] <raphink> hmm ok
[06:55] <Stormx2> w0rd54: hehe you said "teh"
[06:55] <w0rd54> lol
[06:55] <w0rd54> basically I want grub just to boot from MBR of HD
[06:55] <bur[n] er> electron_: try this... mv ~/.xmms ~/.xmms-bak and then restart xmms :)
[06:56] <w0rd54> like those xp cd's...."press any key to boot from cd" have a current boot menu that defaults to HD booting
[06:56] <Stormx2> w0rd54: I have mine booting off cd, then hdd. If it doesn't find cd, it boots to hdd?
[06:56] <raphink> thanks bur[n] er I found it :)
[06:56] <w0rd54> yep
[06:56] <w0rd54> if I take cd out it works fine
[06:56] <w0rd54> and if partition is ntfs/fat32 it boots fine
[06:56] <EvilPaddy> What is the location of the directory of C header files that match the Breezy kernel?
[06:56] <Stormx2> w0rd54: Thats odd, normally it will just say "Can't find cd, booting from hdd"
[06:56] <paulproteus> raphink: You may want to read the Apache2 config setup info at http://www.debian-administration.org/articles/101
[06:56] <bur[n] er> raphink: sorry for misleading you originally... didn't realize apache2 was different ;)
[06:57] <raphink> I just don't get why the php package didn't change this setting in apache2.conf
[06:57] <raphink> that's weird
[06:57] <w0rd54> Stormx2: I have bios set to boot from cd, cd loads GRUB with menu...first option = boot from HD0
[06:57] <Stormx2> w0rd54: So wait, you need it to boot to the MBR?
[06:57] <jnmbk> hi, I have a question about lilo, am i in the right place...
[06:57] <bur[n] er> raphink: make a bug report?
[06:57] <raphink> sure
[06:57] <raphink> I will
[06:57] <w0rd54> so it boots from CD first....loading GRUB....and then I'd like to point it to the MBR of the HD no matter what OS is on HD
[06:57] <raphink> if I get it to work first
[06:57] <w0rd54> if you get me?
[06:57] <EvilPaddy> What is the location of the directory of C header files that match the Breezy kernel?
[06:57] <eedge> you know dist-upgrade... well, I've been running it for about 3 hours, almost done. Its still get'ing.. When the downloadings finished what exactly will happen?
[06:57] <ompaul> jnmbk, maybe, you have to ask first
[06:57] <electron_> grrrrr
[06:57] <electron_> no
[06:57] <electron_> still same
[06:57] <eedge> because I assume it hasn't actually upgraded anything yet.
[06:57] <w0rd54> I'm building an "install environment" cd basically...got 98/2k/xp/ubuntu from network
[06:57] <NoUse> eedge it'll install the packages
[06:57] <Stormx2> w0rd54: So you want to get rid of the middle man (cd) ?
[06:57] <w0rd54> all automated ;)
[06:57] <Welly> hey all.. i'm doing this - sudo mount -t nfs <IP_ADDRESS>:var/www /media/lois

[06:58] <electron_> fucked
[06:58] <raphink> it still won't work
[06:58] <electron_> :(
[06:58] <w0rd54> Stormx2: i want to keep the cd, but if computer reboots I want the cd to wait 5 secs and then boot to HD by default (CD bootloader = grub)
[06:58] <electron_> just goes through the song with no sound
[06:58] <Stormx2> electron_: What is the problem? I don't understand
[06:58] <electron_> bur[n] er, yes, it was working fine, now I can't play mp3s with XMMS or MPG123. The progress bar just goes through the track like 5 times the speed like it's ripping the song or something and I get no sound.
[06:58] <electron_> Hello, I am having some trouble with XMMS, it was working fine, now when I try to play mp3s the progress bar goes along fast and I don't get any sound, same with mpg123. I think the sound library has problems with esd, how can I fix this?
[06:58] <paulproteus> Welly: Two things;
[06:58] <Welly> go for it! :)
[06:58] <fm> hi
[06:58] <eedge> so, what about things it wants to upgrade that I have open?
[06:58] <paulproteus> 1. I think you mean <IP_ADDRESS>:/var/www - note the xtra slash.
[06:58] <sobersabre> hi guys, where do I complain about evolution ? :)
[06:58] <eedge> like firefox etc.
[06:58] <paulproteus> Welly: 2. I think you have the NFS server's IP address wrong.
[06:58] <electron_> I don't know if it's about esd
[06:58] <paulproteus> Welly: Or you haven't run /etc/init.d/nfs start on that machine.
[06:59] <electron_> it only works on oss
[06:59] <Stormx2> electron_: XMMS has MP3 support in-the-box, you don't need mpg123. Try changing output plugin
[06:59] <Welly> really?
[06:59] <electron_> plugin
[06:59] <Welly> oh ok
[06:59] <Welly> i'll try with the extra /
[06:59] <sobersabre> I mean ubuntu's 2.4.1
[06:59] <Welly> first
[06:59] <fm> I have a silly question : is it possible in Breezy to have an adress bar in the File Browser under gnome ?
[06:59] <w0rd54> damn....
[06:59] <Welly> no.. that didn't work
[06:59] <EvilPaddy> clear
[06:59] <electron_> Only OSS works
[06:59] <EvilPaddy> What is the location of the directory of C header files that match the Breezy kernel?
[06:59] <Stormx2> fm: I've always wondered that. I think you can start it with --browser, let me see
[06:59] <electron_> mpg123 doesn't work eather mate
[06:59] <w0rd54> title=Boot from HD
[06:59] <w0rd54>         unhide (hd0,0)
[06:59] <w0rd54>         rootnoverify (hd0,0)
[06:59] <w0rd54>         chainloader +1
[06:59] <w0rd54>         makeactive
[06:59] <paulproteus> EvilPaddy: /lib/modules/`uname -r`/build
[06:59] <electron_> so it's something else, not the players
[06:59] <w0rd54> that's my first entry on menu.lst booting from CD
[06:59] <paulproteus> EvilPaddy: BUT you must install linux-headers-`uname -r` first.
[06:59] <NoUse> w0rd54 don't paste in here
[07:00] <L2-CaStLe> Has anyone else had problems with ubuntu freezing at random, nothing helps but a hard reset?
[07:00] <w0rd54> NoUse: k, will refrain
[07:00] <paulproteus> L2-CaStLe: I had that problem, then I found my motherboard was faulty.
[07:00] <soundray> L2-CaStLe: No, sounds like a hardware problem to me.
[07:00] <electron_> chealer electron_, looks like you have a general problem with sound then. cdcd might go to your audio card by a different path. does any application that doesn't play audio CDs play sound corectly?
[07:00] <paulproteus> L2-CaStLe: You might try running memtest86 just to see if it's your RAM.
[07:00] <mcphail> L2-CaStLe: i had that problem on one hoary install. All is well now.
[07:00] <yohan> anyone have a specific guide to chroot with breezy?
[07:00] <electron_> thats sounds more like it
[07:01] <L2-CaStLe> this is on a laptop, which ran debian+fluxbox without this problem
[07:01] <yohan> (amd 64)
[07:01] <paulproteus> L2-CaStLe: What year is the machine from?
[07:01] <oidia> can anyone send me a sourse code that whould compile withOUT errors using g++ hello.cpp
[07:01] <eedge> when I'm dist-upgrading, do I have to close everything?
[07:01] <ompaul> !tell w0rd54 about paste
[07:01] <L2-CaStLe> 2005, bought it in August
[07:01] <eedge> because, what about when its installing updates for things I have open?
[07:01] <MaX> can somebody help? when installing Ubuntu i got an error that says "can't mount CD-ROM"
[07:01] <soundray> L2-CaStLe: debian+fluxbox with a 2.4 kernel?
[07:01] <L2-CaStLe> 2.6
[07:01] <paulproteus> L2-CaStLe: The other time this happened to me was a weird power management glitch on a Dell laptop.
[07:01] <w0rd54> k
[07:02] <mcphail> L2-CaStLe: a reinstall might work. Sorted things for me.
[07:02] <Stormx2> fm: Hmm, I can't see it in the options. I'll do some research
[07:02] <jnmbk> I installed ubuntu 5.10, during installation I skipped grub configuration because I wanted to install lilo instead (I just liked it when i first saw it in mandrake), but lilo does't show windows as an option at the start, I changed the lilo.conf file and run lilo but still doesn't show windows, it just starts loading linux, I'm sure that windows is in hda1 and linux is in hda6
[07:02] <L2-CaStLe> mcphail, in that case it will be a reinstall of debian
[07:02] <fm> Stormx2 : found it ! http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=77346
[07:02] <paulproteus> L2-CaStLe: Can you try running a Debian kernel?
[07:02] <paulproteus> On the Ubuntu system, I mean.
[07:02] <soundray> L2-CaStLe: have you checked your machine's temperatures?
[07:02] <heino> anyone got the eclipse packages running on amd64
[07:02] <Stormx2> fm:http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=77346
[07:02] <queuetue> I have a machine with a working soundcard (mplayer works fine) but gnome audio apps do not make any sound and the volume control has an X through it with "No volume control elements and / or devices found" pops up when I click on it...
[07:02] <sobersabre> why does evolution get stuck (freeze), and then respawned (suddenly starts responding) ?
[07:02] <oidia> any c++ programmer in here?
[07:02] <ompaul> jnmbk, well sudo fdisk -l may help you find useful info there
[07:02] <Stormx2> fm: You got there first! damn you!
[07:02] <paulproteus> Just download a linux-image package from Debian Testing
[07:02] <w0rd54> ok
[07:03] <queuetue> Did my sound card not get recognized properly?  Can I rerecognize it?
[07:03] <w0rd54> http://paste.ubuntulinux.nl/3986 <<< -- can someone look at this grub and let me know if I'm doing something wrong
[07:03] <NoUse> oidia try to the c++ channel
[07:03] <oidia> j c++
[07:03] <ompaul> oidia, #gcc would be a better place, a much better place
[07:03] <delire> L2-CaStLe: sounds like your hardware is bad.
[07:03] <L2-CaStLe> soundray, need utils for that, but I will check. It does get a little hot, but not THAT hot.
[07:03] <MaX> please
[07:03] <paulproteus> L2-CaStLe: Try a Debian 2.6 kernel from Testing.  It might solve this for you.
[07:03] <oidia> ok tnx :P
[07:03] <MaX> can somebody help me? when installing Ubuntu i got an error that says "can't mount CD-ROM"
[07:04] <soundray> L2-CaStLe: I second paulproteus
[07:04] <NoUse> MaX did you verify the CD image when you downloaded it?
[07:04] <L2-CaStLe> ok, I'll try later, thanks.
[07:04] <Spudchat> allright i installed firestarter but when i activate my second (wired) network card my first NIC (wireless) loses connection to the internet
[07:04] <mcphail> L2-CaStLe: do you find it more likely to freeze running firefox/qemu/vmware? These were the troublesome apps for me.
[07:04] <paulproteus> L2-CaStLe: Keep me informed; I'm interested to see how this goes.
[07:04] <Spudchat> any ideas?
[07:04] <bur[n] er> queuetue: is "esd" running?
[07:04] <delphiuk> can anyone help me with a problem I seem to be having with totem? it seems to seg fault
[07:04] <paulproteus> Spudchat: If they have IP addresses in the same block, Linux will freak out.
[07:05] <Stormx2> MaX: Check if the cd is scratched/damaged. If its not, ensure the download is ok (search ubuntuforums.org for md5 sum). If it isn't ok, re-download. if it is, try burning at a slower speed!
[07:05] <Spudchat> in the same block meaning like 192.168.1.* ?
