[20:00] <Nan0fire> devill i erased, repartition-tabled, partitoined everyting a couple of times so i don't think there's a way back :S
[20:00] <alexnet> Im having a permissions related problem. I have created a group that contains my username and apache as members.  I then recursively gave permissions to a folder for root:mygroup.  The members of my group cannot write to teh folder (the chmod settings are okay).  Is there a way to see if maybe i messed up the group creation?
[20:00] <Lenaud01> virtual ox seems have issue with usb
[20:00] <twig11> dcherniv: save modified buffer y ?
[20:00] <RoyL> Any1 free to help me with an Ubuntu Firefox keyboard issue?  BTW - I am new to IRC
[20:00] <Lenaud01> anyone else have this issue?
[20:00] <twig11> dcherniv: after messing a few things up I'm ultra cautious.
[20:01] <Pici> Lenaud01: The ose (open source edition) of virtualbox that comes with Ubuntu does not support usb.
[20:01] <yurik> Is 32bit of 64bit best?
[20:01] <sivel> I have seen reference to an ubuntu experimental repository.  is anyone aware of such a repo?
[20:01] <RocketLauncher> I can take a screenshot of my other monitor using scrot -m, but I don't want to have to take two screenshots and put them together. Any better solutions?
[20:01] <dcherniv> twig11: yes
[20:01] <devil> Nan0fire:dnt lose hope .theres always a chance...have u used testdisk?.
[20:01] <Lenaud01> Pici I got the .deb from sun
[20:01] <RoyL> anyone free to help me?
[20:01] <dcherniv> twig11: save it
[20:01] <RocketLauncher> else what's a quick way to join two images together like that
[20:01] <Nan0fire> devill, no
[20:01] <Pici> Lenaud01: Then I would ask in #vbox then
[20:01] <Lenaud01> thanks
[20:02] <Radtoo> neoteny: ah, I'd see if this also happens for me but I've only got wmii and kde4 installed at the moment. but yes, this sounds like a bug.
[20:02] <gartral> yurik: 32 if your gaming, 64 if your doing high math
[20:02] <yurik> gartral: for a server ?
[20:02] <devil> its gud..use that..itll analyze first using quick search
[20:02] <twig11> dcherniv: I'm not sure what to do at the next option. File name to write: /etc/sudoers.tmp
[20:02] <firepants> anyone know where i can get the medibuntu gpg key?
[20:03] <ivan_> hey, for some reason my ubuntu keeps starting up in text and i dont know how to switch it to the graphics mode
[20:03] <Nan0fire> devil, changed name to devil?
[20:03] <RoyL> Any Ubuntu experts here?  I need some help
[20:03] <devil> Nan0fire: yups..
[20:03] <Pici> !ask | RoyL
[20:03] <Radtoo> yurik: 64bit is most useful if you have a lot of ram or do maths intensive processing (video encoding, actual math solving, ...). otherwise 32bit is slightly less problematic and you dont usually miss out on anything
[20:03] <neoteny> RoyL, maybe us mere non experts can help.
[20:04] <devil> ivan_: use startx
[20:04] <Nan0fire> devil ok so  i need to down an burn " testdisk" ?
[20:04] <dcherniv> twig11: hm i dunno, never used visudo. maybe someone else can clarify why it wants to save to a .tmp filke
[20:04] <grawity> dcherniv: because visudo does that to make sure you didn't made any syntax errors.
[20:04] <majikman> how do i use dpkg to list available packages to install?
[20:04] <devil> Nan0fire:no just install it on ur machine
[20:04] <ivan_> thanks
[20:04] <vega> RoyL: probably not, this is only official ubuntu support channel..
[20:04] <Pici> twig11: Thats normal, just save and quit and it will do its thing.
[20:04] <Nan0fire> you mean on my windows?
[20:04] <RoyL> I have a prob where the keybrd stops working in Jaunty but only when using Firefox 3.5
[20:05] <grawity> dcherniv: if the new sudoers file is correct, it is copied to /etc/sudoers. Otherwise it warns you and reopens the same temp file.
[20:05] <click_here> I installed ubuntu on my eee pc, and I have no sound
[20:05] <fccf> RoyL: needless to say with almost fifteen hundred ... there is alot of expertise
[20:05] <twig11> Pici: I know, but how?
[20:05] <ivan_> do you know why it would just randomly start in text mode?
[20:05] <yurik> Radtoo: it will be a web server/irc server, just _servers_ basically... what do u suggest?
[20:05] <Pici> twig11: ctrl-o to save (don't change the filename) and then ctrl-x
[20:05] <ojii> hi all, i installed firefox 3.5 using apt-get install firefox-3.5 but i still have firefox-3.0 installed and that's the one that opens if i go applications->internet->firefox
[20:05] <ojii> how can i upgrade to 3.5?
[20:05] <Pici> !ff35 | read this ojii
[20:05] <Radtoo> yurik: 32bit will be fine, I'm sure. you'll probably save a little time every now and then as compared to 64 bit where you occasionally solve problems. and performance won't be impacted by 32bit.
[20:05] <OttifantSir> A networking question: I have a DIR-655 and a DI-524. I have a cable-connection I wish to share with the neighbours, but at the moment, with only the DIR-655 providing wireless, they're getting between 12 and 36 % signalstrength. Any ide on how to enable the DI-524 as an extender? Preferrably keeping Gigabit-connectivity between my server and media-PC (Probably need a switch for that, right?)
[20:05] <fccf> majikman: that would be a long list.. have you tried aptitude
[20:06] <ojii> shiretoko? wtf
[20:06] <devil> Nan0fire:it works on both the os..
[20:06] <Pici> ojii: Please mind your language here.
[20:06] <majikman> fccf, no, but i like being able to grep and do other text manipulations on my output
[20:06] <devil> Nan0fire:google it..
[20:06] <click_here> I have no sound on my ubuntu eee pc install.
[20:06] <majikman> so 'm not really concerned about long lists
[20:06] <yurik> Radtoo: thank you!
[20:06] <yurik> !32bit
[20:06] <Radtoo> yurik: no problem.
[20:07] <twig11> Pici: ctrl>o gives me a system beep. Did I mess something up if I accidentally hit ctrl>c trying to copy out of terminal with visudo running?
[20:07] <DVA5912> Is the game 20,000 leagues under the sea open source? Id like to modify its some.
[20:07] <alexnet> Problem: Jim is in group MyGroup.  A folder named /folder/ with permissions root:MyGroup rwxrwxr-x exists.  Jim cannot copy files to /folder/ over scp.  If permissions are changed to jim:MyGroup, Jim can now copy files to /folder/.  How do I make it so that all members of MyGroup can always copy files to /folder/ ?
[20:07] <Pici> twig11: What do you see on your screen right now? Are you still in nano?
[20:07] <RoyL> I have a prob where the keybrd stops working in Jaunty but only when using Firefox 3.5. Any ideas?

[20:09] <u_> What are some creative things to do with an idle linux box?
[20:09] <tanath> anyone know why that might be?
[20:09] <Paavi2_0> DVA5912: what are you downloading them with?

[20:09] <sez> my mousepad stopped working on my eee just yesterday; I belive it could be after I updated a few things. any tips on how to fix this problem?
[20:09] <Nan0fire> devil, hope it works, im installing hackingtosh right now
[20:10] <twig11> Pici: dcherniv: Now I've edited sudoers, and I still want to make the script run at startup. still with me?
[20:10] <Paavi2_0> DVA5912: you know that it installs them too? try looking under Programs > Games
[20:10] <OttifantSir> I have a DIR-655 and a DI-524. I have a cable-connection I wish to share with the neighbours, but at the moment, with only the DIR-655 providing wireless, they're getting between 12 and 36 % signalstrength. Any ide on how to enable the DI-524 as an extender? Preferrably keeping Gigabit-connectivity between my server and media-PC (Probably need a switch for that, right?)
[20:11] <Pici> twig11: If you don't mind me asking, what does this script do?
[20:11] <DVA5912> Paavi2_0: i know that :) im looking for the source code of the game itself
[20:11] <fccf> magikman: have you looked at man dpkg .... there are alot of options
[20:11] <Paavi2_0> DVA5912: i think apt just installs the binaries...
[20:12] <tanath> why does System->Hardware drivers show nothing?
[20:12] <RoyL> I have a prob where the keybrd stops working in Jaunty but only when using Firefox 3.5. Any ideas? Sorry to rpt but not getting any help so far :-( Losing will to live
[20:12] <twig11> Pici: http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/m38fa0231
[20:12] <DVA5912> Paavi2_0: ok. well that would be a feutile attempt then. Anyway a google search gave me the source code. Im making some adjustments!
[20:13] <devil> Nan0fire: okkk..u also have option of gpart to recover the partition table. but i prefer testdisk
[20:13] <twig11> Pici: BAD BAD wireless card that hates all gui utilities
[20:13] <DVA5912> what the sh** its a python game i didint think it was
[20:13] <tanath> RoyL, it stop working in all apps, or just when fx3.5 is running?
[20:13] <fccf> magikman: start with dpkg --list
[20:13] <RocketLauncher> So I have scrot. I'm dual screening.. I use 'scrot -m' and I take a screenshot of the half I wanted. The site says I'm supposed to join them together.. Is there a quick way to do this?
[20:13] <Paavi2_0> DVA5912: i recommend you to read the apt documentation
[20:13] <twig11> !language <DVA5912
[20:13] <RocketLauncher> i have to join them together side by side..
[20:13] <tanath> RoyL, er, in fx3.5
[20:14] <devil> Royl: i cant say why..try updating the browser..or arther use anothr browser ..
[20:14] <DVA5912> how can you call language when i could have said shoot all you saw was sh**
[20:14] <tanath> RoyL, if it only doesn't work in fx3.5, then it's the app
[20:14] <RoyL> tanath: yes
[20:14] <theTroy> did anyone use TrueCrypt? It does not accept 63 symbol password on entering to DECRYPT, but does accept it to ENCRYPT. Now I have freaking 40GB of my data without being able to decrypt it, even knowing the password. any help will be greatly appreciated
[20:14] <tanath> RoyL, yes what?
[20:14] <Pici> twig11: Well... if you wanted it to run at boot then we didn't need to put it in the sudoers file.
[20:14]  * Dekko wonders how do I install SMP kernel? I am now running 2.6.28-13-generic on a core duo 2.4 Ghz machine....
[20:14] <Dekko> And I am using Jaunty Jackalope.
[20:14] <RoyL> yes all apps after using ffox3.5
[20:15] <erUSUL> !generic | Dekko
[20:15] <Pici> Dekko: The generic kernel supports smp just fine.
[20:15] <Pici> !boot > twig11
[20:15] <Dekko> Pici: It does....?? Can I see this somewhere?
[20:15] <twig11> Pici: the script is required even when the computer wakes from sleep. The card goes down over ANYTHING.
[20:15] <Dekko> My conky just shows one CPU :)
[20:15] <Dekko> says its 1.4 Ghz :-P
[20:15] <Dekko> or something like that :)
[20:15] <erUSUL> Dekko: less /proc/cpuinfo
[20:15] <tanath> RoyL, check bug reports? file bug?
[20:16] <Dekko> erusul: thanks
[20:16] <RocketLauncher> i have to join them together side by side..
[20:16] <RocketLauncher> oh whoops
[20:16] <RoyL> Sorry. The kbrd stops in all apps after using ff3.5 for a few mins
[20:16] <Pici> Dekko: The link from ubottu above should explain it.
[20:16] <Dekko> Pici: will check it, thanks.
[20:16] <Pici> twig11: Then you'd have to put it in some of the udev scripts, I'm not sure where those are.
[20:16] <tanath> why does System->Hardware drivers show nothing?
[20:17]  * Dekko also wonders if someone has any experience with how to get Conky to understand I want the information displayed on the monitor to the RIGHT (I have two monitors under Twinview - extended desktop)...... :)
[20:17] <Spad-XIII> mazda01: did you get phpmyadmin working ?
[20:18] <tanath> Dekko, i believe you can set a compiz rule to have it always run there..
[20:18] <Pici> Dekko: Please don't use actions for your questions.
[20:18] <Dekko> Pici: Okay :)
[20:19]  * RocketLauncher asks a question
[20:19] <Dekko> tanath: Hmmm where could I find out about this? :)
[20:19] <twig11> dcherniv: you told me what to do to run that script at startup didn't you? I failed to copy it and now it's scrolled out of reach. Can you give it now that I'm ready?
[20:19] <tanath> Dekko, in ccsm. i'm poking around now trying to find it
[20:19] <Dekko> tanath: Thank you for your kind assistance!!
[20:20] <alexnet> How come the users that belong to mygroup can't create files?
[20:20] <RocketLauncher> I tried scrot -s, and selected both screens... it only takes a screenshot of the right monitor. scrot -m does the same. Apparently I'm supposed to take a screenshot of both monitors, then join them together. Is there a quick way to do this or do I have to do it in Gimp, which I seriously don't have much knowledge of.
[20:20] <erUSUL> alexnet: where
[20:20] <twig11> How do I create a link to a file using the CLI
[20:20] <dcherniv> twig11: no i actually didnt.
[20:20] <dcherniv> twig11: you done with sudoer
[20:20] <twig11> dcherniv: yes
[20:20] <dcherniv> twig11: logout log back in
[20:20] <erUSUL> twig11: ln -s filename linkname
[20:20] <fccf> Dekko: when starting a program  like firefox .... use firefox :1 to use the second screen ... conky :1 ??
[20:20] <dcherniv> twig11: and see if it asks for a password
[20:20] <twig11> dcherniv: okay bye.
[20:20] <click_here> i hit a keyboard shortcut that zoomed in ALOT and I didn't know how to go back to normal
[20:21] <dcherniv> twig11: ie once you log back in do sudo /bin/fixwifi on the terminal
[20:21] <click_here> what is that shortcut?
[20:21] <alexnet> erUSUL, i createda  group called apacheandfriends, i added www-data and myself to that group.. but neither www-data nor I can create files.  the folder is called /folder/ and has rwxrwxr-x root:apacheandfriends
[20:22] <Dekko> fccf: will check it out thanks
[20:22] <ivze> Greetings, everyone, reading! Have anybody seen a bug of such kind: Atheros chip on a laptop stops working after XP installation?
[20:22] <stroyan> click_here: Try <ctrl> and mouse wheel.
[20:22] <erUSUL> alexnet: what error you get when you try ?
[20:22] <click_here> stroyan, i'm on an eee pc
[20:22] <fwaokda> uhh something strange is going on...
[20:23] <fwaokda> My power goes out for awhile and I boot up my PC and now my Zune is recognized in ubuntu...
[20:23] <alexnet> erUSUL PErmission denied
[20:23] <Spad-XIII> click_here: in firefox? ctrl+0 goes back to normal zoom level ?
[20:23] <theTroy> click_here use both of your fingers on the trackpad to get mousewheel action
[20:23] <alexnet> erUSUL here is ls -l drwxrwxr-x 7 root apacheandfriends 4096 2009-07-14 12:20 folder
[20:23] <click_here> Spad-XIII, this was a ubuntu thing, not firefox
[20:23] <theTroy> click_here  1 finger - left click, 2 fingers - middle click, 2 finders + drag = mousewheel, 3 fingers = rightclick
[20:23]  * fccf thinks provided he only has 2 fingers
[20:23] <Spad-XIII> click_here: cool
[20:23] <Pici> RocketLauncher: You probably can use imagemagick's montage, take a look at some of the examples on http://www.imagemagick.org/Usage/montage/ to see how to use it.
[20:24] <alexnet> erUSUL if i type "groups myname" i see apacheandfriends in the list of groups
[20:24] <click_here> theTroy, I don't think I have that installed
[20:24] <theTroy> click_here
[20:24] <theTroy> its defaukt
[20:24] <diegotiller> onde e o chat em portugues?
[20:24] <theTroy> default*. EEE PC 901 here

[20:24] <Dekko> fccf: no matter what I do the conky window ends up on the LEFT monitor (the wrong one)
[20:24] <ANTRat> alexnet: have you logged out out / logged back in since adding yourself to the group?
[20:25] <RocketLauncher> Pici scrot -m doesn't seem to work as it turns out. I have to use scrot -s to take a screenshot of my other monitor, and it might come short like 1024x767 or something, not the exact size...
[20:25] <diegotiller> eu uso biglinux
[20:25] <click_here> theTroy, originally had xp on this, then installed ubuntu 904 ha
[20:25] <diegotiller> ande e o chat biglinux?
[20:25] <alexnet> ANTRat, no, i have not. I'm SSH'd in do i just need to disconnect or do i need to reboot the Ubuntu box?
[20:25] <diegotiller> portugues????????
[20:25] <Nan0fire> ok, i'm easier to type now
[20:25] <alexnet> !pt | diegotiller
[20:25] <click_here> also does anyone know of a shortcut to open terminal?
[20:25] <theTroy> click_here its ubuntu thing, not the EEEPC thing, I turned many EEEPCs into linux religion
[20:26] <ANTRat> alexnet: just disconnect / reconnect
[20:26] <theTroy> click_here go to the options and just drag it onto the panel
[20:26] <theTroy> the icon*
[20:26] <Nan0fire> klos how does that person know that it IS compatible, he doesn't say
[20:26] <click_here> theTroy, drag what icon?
[20:27] <theTroy> click_here go to the place where the terminal is, in the accesoires, and drag it onto panel
[20:27] <theTroy> sorry for typos, just tired here
[20:27] <erUSUL> alexnet: well i dunno what's happening it should "just work"
[20:27] <alexnet> ANTRat sweet, now *I* have permissions.  To get www-data permissions do i need to disconnect www-data as well? (by restarting apache)
[20:27] <theTroy> or wait, are you using the netbook interface? and not standard desktop?
[20:27] <click_here> theTroy, no standard desktop, but I want a keyboard shortcut
[20:28] <ANTRat> alexnet: yeah
[20:28] <alexnet> erUSUL, maybe its cause im connecting remotely
[20:28] <click_here> theTroy, not desktop
[20:28] <Nan0fire> klos i think iDeneb is compat. but it gave the still waiting for root device eroor, but that's more the problem of the order of the drives/partitions
[20:28] <vadi> Please help me i have problem with Audio
[20:28] <tanath> Dekko, Place Windows > Fixed viewport might do it
[20:28] <guest_> rius
[20:28] <fccf> Dekko: I'm setting up for a test ... give me a few min
[20:28] <theTroy> click_here ahh keyboard shortcut, then go to preferences, and keyboard shortcuts, should be able to set it up there, I am sorry, do not know any more than that
[20:28] <erUSUL> alexnet: it should not matter
[20:28] <erUSUL> alexnet: i did a quick test here and it worked...
[20:29] <Dekko> tanath and fccf: Thank you!!! :) I REALLY appreciate your help.
[20:29] <Dreki> Click_here u can set a hotkey, i set mine to ctrl+T
[20:29] <click_here> theTroy, yeah i got that far, i just can't figure out what i need to type under "command:"
[20:29] <alexnet> erUSUL, well im not sure if ive done other things wrong.. im fairly new to ubuntu... but i was juggling permissions between me:mygroup, root:mygroup, www-data:mygroup... and only the owner ever actually had permissions
[20:29] <FloodBot2> !netsplit
[20:29] <click_here> Dreki, how would you put that under "command:"
[20:29] <leaf-sheep> Woooooot!
[20:30] <stroyan> click_here: You can use <alt>F2 to run a command.  That command can be gnome-terminal if you really want a shell.  The command for a keyboard short cut would be gnome-terminal.
[20:30] <leaf-sheep> I'm riding the wave!
[20:30] <alexnet> funtimes
[20:30] <ANTRat> wee

[20:30] <erUSUL> alexnet: weird...

[20:30] <Nan0fire> ubottu thanks
[20:30] <vadi> Please help me my audio is not working , http://paste.ubuntu.com/218253/
[20:30] <click_here> how do i turn off the info about people joining the chat room?
[20:31] <alexnet> erUSUL and it wasnt until i disconencted just now and reconnected that the group took effect
[20:31] <erUSUL> alexnet: you are sure folder has w permissions for group ?
[20:31] <RocketLauncher> scrot -m doesn't take a screenshot of my right monitor, it only takes a screenshot of my left...........................
[20:31] <erUSUL> alexnet: well that's normal if you created the group in the session
[20:31] <fwaokda> anyone know how I can backup my windows installation within VBOX so I don't have to reinstall after my reformat in a couple mins?
[20:31] <erUSUL> alexnet: you have to log in again afaik
[20:31] <click_here> RocketLauncher, do you have them reversed in orientation in the back of your GPU?
[20:31] <twig11> dcherniv: Okay I'm back. It doesn't work. I pulled the commands out of the script, created a new file on my desktop, ran it from terminal, and that's how I got back online.
[20:31] <alexnet> erUSUL, ah is there anything else like that?
[20:32] <RocketLauncher> click_here what do you mean
[20:32] <twig11> dcherniv: I'll try to get you some output for pastebin
[20:32] <clearzen> do I have to add a % sign in front of a user i wish to grant sudo permissions in the /etc/sudoers file?
[20:32] <stroyan> click_here: Which irc client are you using?
[20:32] <click_here> stroyan, xchat
[20:32] <Pici> clearzen: You should only have to add them to the admin group if you want to grant them sudo access. No need to touch /etc/sudoers
[20:32] <click_here> RocketLauncher, as in you have 2 DVI ports on the back of your GPU
[20:32] <erUSUL> alexnet: no; after the new group/memebership takes effect you should be able to create files in a folder your group(s) have w permision for
[20:32] <RocketLauncher> oh click_here i'm thinking it could be reversed.. i had problems with identifying monitors in windows sometimes.. my left would be 2 and my right would be 1
[20:33] <vadi> I have problem with Audio , http://paste.ubuntu.com/218253/
[20:33] <RocketLauncher> click_here so maybe it is
[20:33] <click_here> RocketLauncher, possibly you could flip which monitor is plugged where
[20:33] <clearzen> Pici: is admin in /etc/groups?
[20:33] <karma> how do i find out the last updates that have been applied in ubuntu
[20:33] <Pici> clearzen: yes.
[20:33] <RocketLauncher> click_here hold on let me check
[20:33] <alexnet> erUSUL, okay thank you
[20:33] <Pici> clearzen: The admin group is in /etc/sudoers by default.
[20:33] <clearzen> Pici: Ok, Thanks for the info
[20:33] <Falc> no need to edit files for that
[20:33] <RocketLauncher> click_here my right monitor is on the left, in the dvi port. my left monitor is on the right, in the vga port.. is that what you're talking about?
[20:33] <alexnet> thanks ANTRat too
[20:34] <Falc> just 'sudo adduser <username> admin'
[20:34] <click_here> RocketLauncher, try switching

[20:35] <Billy_S> how can i turn off the joining an leave messages in irssi?
[20:35] <sirakim> comment y aller
[20:35] <sirakim> aidez moi
[20:35] <stroyan> click_here: If  you right button click on a channel tab you can choose Settings->"Hide Join/Part Messages"

[20:35] <Pici> !quietirssi | Billy_S
[20:35] <Billy_S> thank you, stroyan :)
[20:36] <RocketLauncher> click_here okay. In display preferences do i have to switch the monitor's places since it was reversed before?
[20:36] <Dvyjones> Looks like my own simulator is working :)
[20:36] <click_here> stroyan, thanks
[20:36] <dcherniv> twig11: run it with sudo
[20:36] <click_here> RocketLauncher, is this in ubuntu?
[20:37] <vadi> i am new to ubuntu i have problem with audio
[20:37] <RocketLauncher> click_here yup..............
[20:37] <Billy_S> @ubottu, thanks, it works :)
[20:37] <RocketLauncher> click_here if you were mistaken, it was still reversed anyways and I've been wanting to change them before
[20:37] <click_here> RocketLauncher, well i don't know for sure, i'm just brainstorming with you
[20:37] <stroyan> click_here, Billy_S: It is also possible to use the Settings->Advanced->Text Events menu to set different messages or no message for specific events such as Join.
[20:37] <RocketLauncher> click_here scrot still doesn't do it right btw
[20:37] <theTroy> what kernel does 9.10 use?
[20:37] <beto> how can i share my internet connection?
[20:37] <leaf-sheep> RocketLauncher: How about regular scrot?
[20:38] <twig11> dcherniv: if you'll remember, I'm trying to set it up so other users can run the script without sudo. Reduce it to a click for the people who just want it to work, you know?
[20:38] <erUSUL> !inetsharing | beto
[20:38] <RocketLauncher> leaf-sheep what do you mean
[20:38] <RocketLauncher> leaf-sheep oh
[20:38] <leaf-sheep> RocketLauncher: Don't use the -m parameter.
[20:38] <RocketLauncher> leaf-sheep nope doesnt work
[20:38] <twig11> dcherniv: wasn't that the reason me modified sudoers?
[20:38] <twig11> dcherniv: we
[20:39] <jdudeski> is there any way to stop my onboard i845 video from freezing up X in 9.04? I just did a fresh install and I'm 99% sure it's the i845 onboard video that's causing X to freeze at the login prompt
[20:39] <dcherniv> twig11: thats just how sudo works, you still run it with sudo but it wont ask for password anymore
[20:39] <erUSUL> !ntel
[20:39] <erUSUL> !intel
[20:41] <twig11> dcherniv: Okay. so there's no way to create a link that requires only a click by a desktop user to trigger the script?
[20:41] <saddvdperson> Hi.  I'm having a hard time getting my DVD to play.  I have restricted-extra drivers and libcss stuff installed, and I rebooted.  I can get the menu to show and it looks great, but the actual movie is all garbled.  What can I do to make it play properly?
[20:42] <saddvdperson> I've tried it in both totem and VLC, and it works the same way (doesn't work the same way)... :(
[20:42] <erUSUL> saddvdperson: tried different players ? xine-ui is great for dvd's also vlc ... totem (the default one) is notsogreat
[20:42] <dcherniv> twig11: yea there is
[20:42] <tonii> how do I set "-display" option correctly with xset? I've tried /dev/tty#, 0:0, 0, :0 etc but none are working.
[20:42] <dcherniv> twig11: does it ask you for a password?
[20:43] <twig11> dcherniv: no. It does what you see there. no prompts at all
[20:43] <RocketLauncher> EDIT: SCROT doesn't work at all! Wow I confused myself .. Back to phase one.
[20:43] <saddvdperson> Hm, I think it's the disc.  I put my old Matrix DVD in and it does play...
[20:44] <dcherniv> twig11: even with sudo /bin/fixwifi ?
[20:44] <saddvdperson> It's this new Haunting in Connecticut DVD.  Is there maybe some lame encryption on it that I need to install something more to see properly?
[20:44] <twig11> dcherniv: hold on while i check. my connection will be down temporarily if it works, you know.
[20:45] <dcherniv> twig11: ok
[20:45] <erUSUL> saddvdperson: that dvd is simply foobared (scratched or something) ?
[20:45] <L3dPlatedLinux>  If i was to just copy the /.firefox  would that back it up plugins and all?
[20:45] <saddvdperson> It's possible, but it just came out today, so it shouldn't have previous use.  I tried it in my physical DVD player and it played okay
[20:45] <abc> iyi akşamlar
[20:45] <ortsvorsteher> !tr | abc
[20:46] <twig11> dcherniv: Back already. It works with sudo
[20:46] <click_here> I have 2 screens active on my eee pc in ubuntu.... as in i drag a window over to another screen on my eee pc... how do i turn that off?'
[20:46] <dcherniv> twig11: cool no password?
[20:46] <stroyan> tonii: Normally the DISPLAY environment variable is set properly for commands like xset to run.  You will need to tell us more about your situation for anyone to guess what display setting will find the X server you expect to reach.
[20:46] <twig11> dcherniv: right no password
[20:47] <dcherniv> twig11: so write yet another shell script create a new file on your desktop with following contents #!/bin/bash xterm -e "sudo /bin/fixwifi"
[20:47] <dcherniv> twig11: xterm -e goes on the 2nd line
[20:48] <twig11> dcherniv: okay.
[20:48] <erUSUL> L3dPlatedLinux: no; some plgunis are installed system wide (for example when you install flashplugin-nonfree )
[20:48] <mzz> can someone confirm that "Reading files needed to boot" is normally the first thing printed once we're off the initramfs and on the actual partition?
[20:48] <mzz> for some reason I'm only getting a boot splash up until that point.
[20:49] <theTroy> how to use the " in the terminal? i.e. " blabla " blabla " and the string is blabla " blabla
[20:49] <mzz> L3dPlatedLinux: notice plugins and extensions are pretty different. Most of your extensions will be per-profile (in ~/.mozilla). Most of your plugins won't be.
[20:49] <tonii> stroyan: ah, hm. How do I find that out? :D
[20:49] <erUSUL> theTroy: scape it with \
[20:49] <mzz> theTroy: either backslash-escape it or quote the whole lot with single quotes.
[20:49] <L3dPlatedLinux> well the is there a way to make a back up of ff and everything in there so I can just put it back the way I have it now just in case
[20:49] <woodworker2001> Alright.... this is my first time on here and first time ever using anthing to do with Ubuntu... but here is what I am trying to do.  I am trying to set up my own Moodle server. What I want to do is install Ubuntu on a flash drive so I can boot up my laptop using Ubuntu and make it my host server when I want to access the site, but still be able to run windows and keep that info when I dont want to do this.  I have tried 3
[20:49] <woodworker2001> intall
[20:49] <Orange_v_Blue> I've recently been getting an annoying woodblock-esque sound that doesn't seem to be tied to anything in particular, and happens at random. a restart didn't help, and it's really driving me nuts. any ideas, besides muting
[20:50] <erUSUL> theTroy: echo "blabla \"blabla \" more bla "
[20:50] <twig11> dcherniv: I'm done, now just click? :-D
[20:50] <theTroy> thank!
[20:50] <theTroy> thanks*
[20:50] <woodworker2001> Can someone please help?:-)
[20:50] <stroyan> tonii: Start with the basics.  Are you running xset from a gnome-terminal showing in an X server, or from ssh, or what?
[20:50] <mzz> woodworker2001: cut off at "I have tried 3"
[20:51] <tonii> stroyan: ah! from consol. my monitor is put either into suspended mode or "off" and I want to wake it up.
[20:51] <soreau> mzz !
[20:51] <soreau> ;)
[20:51] <Orange_v_Blue> woodworker2001: google dual-boot ubuntu or USB ubuntu boot, that should do it
[20:51] <woodworker2001> intalling the 8.04.2 - i386 server edition and it wont boot after I finish the
[20:51] <erUSUL> !usbinstall
[20:51] <twig11> dcherniv: Can this be run from a non-admin's account as well?
[20:51] <tonii> stroyan: I'm having difficulties to make any other driver then "vesa" to work with X at the moment.
[20:51] <saddvdperson> Maybe it is the disc.  I just tried the other side (full screen) and it does play.
[20:51] <mzz> soreau: I'm messing around with intel kms on a laptop. It even kinda works! But I somehow broke hibernate/resume in the process :(
[20:51] <ortsvorsteher> !install
[20:52] <saddvdperson> I guess this is a bad coincidence of my first DVD play since last linux upgrade and a bad disc after all.
[20:52] <twig11> dcherniv: you still around?
[20:52] <soreau> mzz: Not surprising. suspend/hibernate/resume has been a consistent problem for graphics drivers
[20:52] <theTroy> when I try to echo " !bla" it says even !bla is not found
[20:52] <theTroy> event*
[20:53] <twig11> dcherniv: okay I'm trying it out so I might not see a response from you for a minute
[20:53] <stroyan> tonii: If you do "ps -ef | grep X" you should see a /usr/X11R6/bin/X line.  The first argument to that would be the DISPLAY name.
[20:53] <mzz> soreau: well, I'm not sure if it's my modesetting stuff or my temporary karmic install. I suspect it's either an initramfs issue or a kernel parameter issue, and it doesn't even attempt to resume.
[20:53] <lstarnes> twig11: replace ! with \!
[20:53] <tonii> stroyan: thanks! :)
[20:53] <mzz> soreau: oh wait, I think I might know what it is (and it's none of the above, yay)
[20:53] <kyle3> Hey how do i become a ubuntu mirror?
[20:53] <erUSUL> theTroy: you have to scape ! too. search in google what chars you have to scape in shell
[20:54] <mzz> soreau: I completely forgot about it, but I reformatted my swap partition. I bet the uuid of the old swap partition is still stashed somewhere, and it's unsuccessfully trying to resume from that.
[20:54] <erUSUL> kyle3: there is a link in the main ubuntu site iirc
[20:54] <kyle3> yes
[20:54] <soreau> mzz: Ah ha!
[20:54] <Pici> !newmirror | kyle3
[20:54] <theTroy> erUSUL what do you mean scape? \! doesnt work
[20:54] <erUSUL> theTroy: it does here
[20:54] <twig11> lstarnes: #\!/bin/bash
[20:54] <twig11> xterm -e "sudo /bin/fixwifi"?
[20:54] <kyle3> i have done that its been one week no reply
[20:54] <mzz> soreau: (just to complicate matters further: my swap is on lvm)
[20:54] <theTroy> hmm
[20:54] <woodworker2001> do I need to run server edition to be able to host a moodle site
[20:54] <theTroy> will try again
[20:55] <tonii> stroyan: :0 it says, but xset "cannot open display". hmm.
[20:55] <gangil1> where are all the icons images stored in ubuntu????
[20:55] <erUSUL> mzz: boot with "noresume" boot option ?
[20:55] <soreau> mzz: Why complicate things like that? KMS is enough complexity ;)
[20:55] <erUSUL> gangil1: /usr/share/icons/ ?
[20:55] <lstarnes> twig11: wait, I got the wrong nick.  That was for theTroy
[20:55] <twig11> lstarnes: okay.
[20:55] <mzz> erUSUL: no "noresume" in sight. It does boot fine, it just never even tries to resume (at least not as far as I notice)
[20:55] <dcherniv> twig11: yea that script that you wrote make it executable, chmod +x scriptname
[20:55] <dcherniv> twig11: once its executable you can just double click on it
[20:55] <ortsvorsteher> twig11: no, dont scape the shell interpretor with #\!/bin/bash everytime you write a script for bash, it starts with #!/bin/bash
[20:55] <mzz> soreau: lvm's actually easier than regular partitioning once you're booted
[20:55] <dcherniv> twig11: and it should do the whole shebang automatically
[20:56] <mzz> soreau: it's only during grub and early bootup that it can complicate matters.
[20:56] <theTroy> erUSUL echo " \!bh" results in \!bg not in !bg
[20:56] <twig11> dcherniv: I made it executable using the gui properties
[20:56] <dcherniv> twig11: yea thats fine too
[20:56] <dcherniv> twig11: double click on it see what happens
[20:56] <soreau> mzz: I'll take your word for it. Only messed with lvm once and it was difficult to set up as I recall
[20:56] <twig11> dcherniv: Okay, i'll be outfor a bit while I test...
[20:57] <dcherniv> twig11: alright
[20:57] <soreau> mzz: Mostly because I had to get the right installation iso
[20:57] <twig11> dcherniv: run or run in terminal?
[20:57] <mzz> soreau: well, ubuntu is annoying in that you need the alternative install cd to set up lvm during install (this is a carefully guarded secret or something: I haven't been able to find a list of features on the alt cd that aren't on the regular one anywhere)
[20:57] <Alvinware> Hot to tweak 10-network-security.conf?
[20:57] <dcherniv> twig11: you created that last script with xterm -e on your desktop right?
[20:57] <Apollo2366> I'm trying to combine two .wav files into one. I'm using Audacity, but when I export my project, the .wav file it saves is broken. Help?
[20:57] <dcherniv> twig11: so just double click on it, it should pop a new window up
[20:58] <dcherniv> twig11: just run
[20:58] <soreau> mzz: Yea, I haven't even looked at Jaunty x86 desktop cd's 'alternate' options yet
[20:58] <dcherniv> twig11: no need to run in terminal
[20:58] <mzz> soreau: it's really great once it works though, since it lets me resize and rearrange partitions without their numbers changing
[20:58] <erUSUL> theTroy: weird zsh and /bin/echo get it right but bash echo does not ...
[20:58] <stroyan> tonii: If you are not logged in to the X server then the X authority setting will be the -auth option in the ps line.  If you are logged in then it will be ~/.Xauthority of the user that is logged in.  You would need to "export XAUTHORITY=<path>" with that file to make xset find the right file.
[20:58] <soreau> mzz: Anyway, lemme know if you get suspend back up, I have to run some errands now
[20:58] <fergus> hi u there...  does anyone know not to configure a wireless network using digital certified???
[20:58] <fergus> *how to configure
[20:59] <Dekko> Did you guys figure out how to nake conky show up on the correct monitor yet? ;-)
[20:59] <gangil1> erUSUL: I need the network icon ...where can it be?
[20:59] <stroyan> tonii: Or, maybe the X server is really unhealthy right now.
[20:59] <RocketLauncher> All I want to do is take a screenshot of both monitors. Print screen doesn't work.. scrot doesn't work. Everything takes a screenshot of my left monitor, and not my right. How do I fix this? It's getting on my nerves now
[20:59] <tonii> stroyan: ah. seems like more trouble then it's worth. I just wanted to see if it would solve my current problem with X.
[20:59] <twig11> dcherniv: It works! now if I make a copy will it run from a link on the desktop of a non-admin user?
[20:59] <click_here>  how do i watch you tube videos? what do i need to download and how?
[20:59] <woodworker2001> I hosting a Moodle site from a laptod do you need to run server edition or destop edition?
[21:00] <david_> how do i access glipper. i installed it and cant find it???
[21:00] <tonii> stroyan: X starts on port CRT-0 (dvi) even though the monitor is connected to CRT-1 (vga), which makes the monitor go into suspend or off (don't know which)
[21:00] <dcherniv> twig11: yea sure it should, you have to make sure that the user who will be executing it has executable permissions
[21:00] <tbtroj> "upgrade-manager -d" upgrade to a development release, but is there a way to *always* be in the devel release?
[21:01] <Alvinware> What can i use to convert rmvb to other with gui?
[21:01] <Radtoo> Alvinware: avidemux for instance.
[21:01] <tbtroj> Something like Fedora's Rawhide.
[21:01] <Alvinware> thank you, radtoo.
[21:01] <click_here> how do i view videos on youtube?
[21:01] <fwaokda> anyone have any experience with cloning virtualbox .vdi's ?
[21:02] <minimec> RocketLauncher: I always use gnome-screenshot with my Dual-Screen System. That always works. At least it always worked with ATI and NVIDIA cards.
[21:02] <Radtoo> Alvinware: np. if you need more suggestions, ask again - there's other programs for sure. >D
[21:02] <stroyan> tonii: The monitor selection might be switchable with <fn>F4 or <fn>F5, depending on your system.  You might also see if you can get xrandr to tell you about monitors and possibly switch the output.
[21:02] <RocketLauncher> minimec it only takes a screenshot of my left monitor, that's the problem :(
[21:02] <Radtoo> click_here: your favourite web browser perhaps and adobe's flash?
[21:02] <ascheel> So I learned the most pointless and nerdy thing ever and it's incredible!  hovering over a sound file starts playing it.
[21:03] <naildownx3> I have installed jaunty on my mini 12 and my firefox is freezing my whole machine...anyone have a similar problem before?
[21:03] <tonii> stroyan: hm, didn't try <fn>, I should test that first.
[21:03] <click_here> Radtoo, hmm.. i thought i had both of those already and it still isn't working
[21:03] <Alvinware> radtoo, is avidemux the best in format support?
[21:03] <minimec> RocketLauncher: What GPU do xou have?
[21:03] <fccf> ascheel: thats nautilus integration
[21:03] <ascheel> fccf: it rocks what it is.  :)
[21:03] <david_> is there a decent clipboard manager for ubuntu?
[21:03] <RocketLauncher> minimec ati hd4670
[21:03] <david_> yet
[21:04] <linduxed> lets say ive got a music folder in /home/linduxed/music and i want the user mpd to be able to access it through a symlink called /var/lib/mpd/music, how do i set up the permissions so mpd gets to see and read the contents of /home/linduxed/music?
[21:04] <minimec> RocketLauncher: fglrx driver?
[21:04] <Radtoo> Alvinware: its pretty good. if you're in need to do this professionally you may be more happy with ffmpeg or transcode or mencoder on the command line, but I think avidemux has more than most people need.
[21:04] <RocketLauncher> minimec nope
[21:04] <fccf> david_: glipper is a clipboard manager for gnome
[21:05] <RocketLauncher> minimec http://packages.ubuntu.com/jaunty/xserver-xorg-video-radeonhd
[21:05] <ascheel> linduxed: if I remember right, the user MPD gets ran as needs to have permissions to access both the sym link (including all parent directories)
[21:05] <click_here> i think i need a decoder
[21:05] <RocketLauncher> minimec thats what i use
[21:05] <Alvinware> Thank You very much for your advices, Radtoo.
[21:05] <click_here> is gstreamer0.10-plugins-bad ok to install?
[21:05] <mgolisch> click_here: yeah why not?
[21:05] <ascheel> linduxed: the directory it's pointing to also needs permissions for the same user and I could be wrong on this, but I think the user needs to have permission to access the directory from the standard (non-sym link) as well
[21:06] <click_here> mgolisch, i don't want to get a virus or something
[21:06] <Radtoo> Alvinware: np.
[21:06] <minimec> RocketLauncher: Ok. Could be a driver thing. I don't see a reason, why gnome-screenshot shouldn't work. I personally guess its a driver related problem.
[21:06] <linduxed> ascheel: that sounds reasonable, but terribly insecure in a way
[21:06] <click_here> mgolisch, plus, it says its restricted software
[21:06] <ascheel> linduxed, insecure?  You want them to have access, that's as secure or insecure as it gets.
[21:06] <ascheel> Either they have access or they don't
[21:06] <RocketLauncher> minimec Should I try fglrx? I tried it before but I didn't know how to set up dual screens using it. Display preferences didn't even load up..
[21:07] <david_> fccf, i installed glipper and cant find it..:-/
[21:07] <minimec> RocketLauncher: There is an ati config gui. You have to use that one.
[21:07] <linduxed> ascheel: yeah i guess im talking trash
[21:07] <fccf> david_: hold on while I test
[21:07] <mgolisch> click_here: i think the bad set codecs isnt as good quality as the others but it shouldnt realy harm your system in anyway
[21:07] <david_> fccf, k
[21:07] <RocketLauncher> minimec I'll try getting fglrx now. do i have to uninstall the radeon driver that i already have or what
[21:07] <click_here> mgoliscoh okh,
[21:08] <ascheel> linduxed: mpd is a server process.  As long as it's locked down, you have nothing to worry about.  I don't believe mpd needs write access, just read
[21:08] <click_here> mgolisch, you wouldn't happen to know of a great music player for ubuntu that lets you rip in flac?
[21:08] <linduxed> ascheel: thats right
[21:08] <ascheel> linduxed: I'm going to advise you to check out #mpd, as it's a bit off topic for the #ubuntu channel.
[21:08] <minimec> RocketLauncher: No. That is no problem, but you well have to uninstall the fglrx driver, if you want to use the opensource driver, because fglrx adds a special kernel module.
[21:08] <ascheel> linduxed: but I believe what I told you is truth
[21:08] <sumant> does anyone know how to watch videos on www.crackle.com
[21:08] <RocketLauncher> minmec okay
[21:09] <ascheel> !ot | sumant
[21:09] <sumant> i have ubuntu 9.04 with adobe flash 10 istalled
[21:09] <RocketLauncher> minimec: I'll try getting the fglrx driver now
[21:09] <Alvinware> Radtoo, which website have the guide to edit 10-network-security.conf?
[21:09] <sumant> @ubottu thanks man
[21:09] <click_here> all i still get in youtube is black video, no video
[21:10] <ascheel> sudo apt-get install flashplugin-nonfree
[21:10] <mzz> Alvinware: tweak it to accomplish what?
[21:10] <fccf> david_: run pkill gnome-panel  ... and wait for a new panel ... then right click on top panel and click add to panel
[21:11] <twig11> dcherniv: I've copied the file to family's home folder, now what do I have to do to the permissions? they still confuse me, can you list the command?
[21:11] <velcroshooz> following a howto for cpu scaling, wants me to go to gconf-editor under gnome-power-manager, and the hading 'cpufreq' under that. its not listed. what gives?
[21:11] <insigne> flashplayer-installer
[21:11] <RocketLauncher> minimec, I get this when trying to download fglrx in synaptic: http://pastebin.com/d4bd85aec
[21:11] <david_> fccf, its not in the add to panel list
[21:11] <Alvinware> radtoo, I'm using aMule, and Transmission, while browsing web pages, it slow, so i intend to tweak it for internet/network performance.
[21:12] <dcherniv> twig11: sudo chmod 777 /path/to/script
[21:12] <fccf> david_ it will say clipboard manager  in the list
[21:12] <twig11> dcherniv: okay
[21:12] <naildownx3> does anyone have a dell mini 12?
[21:12] <david_> fccf, ahhhh thanks
[21:13] <minimec> RocketLauncher: You have another window with Synaptic or another package manager open. 2"nd: Install the fglrx driver via the restricted drivers option in the system settings menu.
[21:13] <RocketLauncher> minimec where is the restricted drivers? is that in Hardware Drivers?
[21:13] <btgream> can anyone help with gftp?
[21:14] <Tenkawa> anyone good with usb bluetooth adapters?
[21:14] <Tenkawa> got one that no module seems to have any clue about
[21:14] <ascheel> naildownx3: I use a similar laptop. Same CPU and video, if I remember right.
[21:14] <twig11> dcherniv: does anything have to be done to the permissions of the target script fixwifi in /bin for non-admin users to be able to run it?
[21:14] <minimec> RocketLauncher: System/Admin/Hardware Drivers... in the menu yes
[21:14] <Tenkawa> hciconfig sees it.. thats the odd part
[21:15] <Tenkawa> but the bluetooth wizard etc doesnt
[21:15] <ziewback_> hi! i have a new notebook with an intel 3935abg wireless adapter and the kernel seems to load the module (modprobe -l lists it) but i get no interface in ifconfig an the network manager does not show wireless connections (the option to turn wireless on or off is grey) - anyone got ideas how to find out whats wrong?
[21:15] <fwaokda> how can I install ubuntu-amd64.iso to my thumbdrive in ubuntu-i386 ?
[21:15] <velcroshooz> Tenkawa: ill tell you right now the bluetooth stack in linux is awful. Spent a week with bluetooth headphones only to find out the support just isnt there yet.
[21:15] <mgolisch> ziewback_: dmesg?
[21:15] <Tenkawa> velcroshooz: agreed
[21:15] <bambu> hi. if i want to have ubuntu/vista dual boot, which should i install first? do i need to make a partition in my HDD?
[21:15] <ziewback_> mgolisch: just a moment
[21:16] <ascheel> fwaokda: I recommend you don't use ubuntu-amd64.iso, I recommend you download the ubuntu installer meant for thumb drives and memory sticks
[21:16] <fwaokda> nevermind
[21:16] <fridgos> hi
[21:16] <fridgos> hi
[21:16] <fwaokda> ascheel, what u mean?
[21:16] <Apollo2366> Is anyone here experienced with Audacity?
[21:16] <fridgos> yep
[21:16] <ascheel> fwaokda: .iso files are CD images, meant to burn to a CD.
[21:16] <leaf-sheep> !dualboot | bambu
[21:17] <fridgos> apollo person i use audacity
[21:17] <bambu> thanks
[21:17] <fccf> Apollo2366: what are you trying to do in audacity
[21:17] <dcherniv> twig11: not really. except maybe sudo chmod a+x /bin/fixwifi
[21:17] <velcroshooz> Tenkawa: could only get my phones paired every once in awhile, took commands after the pairing in commandline to work, then pulseaudio would try switching apps for output and just die. Dunno if your just trying to sync a phone or what but anything else is going to be intermittent its basically unusable
[21:17] <dcherniv> twig11: and sudo chmod +r /bin/fixwifi
[21:17] <RocketLauncher> minimec for some reason hardware drivers just sits at 0 percent "Searching for available drivers"
[21:17] <Apollo2366> fccf, I'm trying to combine two .wav files into one, but when I export my project, the .wav file it saves is broken. Help?
[21:17] <fwaokda> ascheel, where do i find the other iso for thumb drive then?
[21:17] <btgream> bambu: if windows is installed first.. when you boot from the ubuntu cd there is an option to personally partition your hardrive but windows will not recognize
[21:17] <fridgos> you need to  make sure it isnt corrup
[21:18] <fridgos> corrupt
[21:18] <fwaokda> ascheel, btw I'm installing it to a pc just via thumb drive... if that matters?
[21:18] <ascheel> fwaokda: stand by.   - whats this rf kill switch?
[21:18] <bambu> btgream: which should i install first?
[21:18] <mgolisch> fwaokda: i think usb inmages are only availiable for netbook remix
[21:18] <velcroshooz> following a howto for cpu scaling, wants me to go to gconf-editor under gnome-power-manager, and the heading 'cpufreq' under that. its not listed. what gives?
[21:18] <fwaokda> mgolisch, bah well i dont want that trash
[21:18] <minimec> RocketLauncher: I don't know why that is. It should find the driver.
[21:18] <btgream> bumbu: well i had xp but it was installed first
[21:18] <woodworker2001> if I want to host a moodle site on my laptop which ubunto system should I use for this?
[21:18] <RocketLauncher> minimec is there another way to obtain it
[21:19] <bambu> nm. ubuntu help says windows first is easier
[21:19] <btgream> instead of vista.. not a big vista fan
[21:19] <camt> babmu: vista first is much easier
[21:19] <mgolisch> ziewback_: it means the radio switch is off, sure there is no switch or button on the keyboard?
[21:19] <twig11> dcherniv: I just tested it from a non-admin account and it works. WOOHOOOO! Thanks for all the help!  PLZ
[21:20] <minimec> RocketLauncher: If aou are not used to install fglrx, I recommend the Ubuntu way. You can also download the binary driver from the official AMD/ATI Homepage. The ubuntu way is much easier.
[21:20] <ascheel> !ops fridgos
[21:20] <woodworker2001> fccf : I am new to this and over my head.. not sure what you said means..... sorry trying to learn this for a final project
[21:20] <ascheel> !ops | fridgos
[21:20] <fwaokda> ascheel, but i dont want the netbook remix version
[21:20] <Alvinware> Radtoo, are u still there?
[21:20] <ivan_> hey i have been trying to boot ubuntu but it keeps starting up in text
[21:20] <sjlkg> hi, this might not be the right channel, but does anyone know how to open streams from thedailyshow.com with toem?
[21:20] <ivan_> can anyone help
[21:20] <sjlkg> *totem
[21:20] <fridgos> fuck
[21:20] <RocketLauncher> minimec what do you mean the Ubuntu way?
[21:20] <mgolisch> ziewback_: whats the notebook model?
[21:21] <btgream> DOES ANYONE USE GFTP??
[21:21] <ascheel> fwaokda: I understand that.  Follow the link the other fellow gave you for creating a boot disk.
[21:21] <Apollo2366> fccf, do you have any idea what might be wrong?
[21:21] <minimec> RocketLauncher: As you do it now, with that Hardwar Dirvers wizard.
[21:21] <ziewback_> mgolisch: well there is some button one can press by using fn-f2 but it does not seem to do anything - its belinea jft00
[21:21] <fccf> woodworker2001: you will need a LAMP stack ... thats LInux Apache Mysql Php ... which is the engine that moodle .. the modular object oriented distributed learning environment .. runs on
[21:21] <Klowny> is there anywhere online i can learn to customize gnome?
[21:21] <Athunye> Hello. I cannot get the microphone working. Everything is enabled. Any help would be appreciated.
[21:21] <ascheel> fwaokda: an iso file will ONLY allow you to burn it to a CD, not to a USB device.  It's not quite as easy getting it to a USB Device, but it *IS* possible
[21:21] <Klowny> like i just want 1 bar instead of 2
[21:21] <RocketLauncher> minimec Hardware Drivers doesn't seem to be working correctly for some reason.. on ATI's site I've seen this: http://support.amd.com/us/gpudownload/linux/Pages/radeon_linux.aspx?type=2.4.1&product=<IP_ADDRESS>.37&lang=English and on packages.ubuntu I found this http://packages.ubuntu.com/jaunty/i386/xorg-driver-fglrx/download (which is what I'm actually downloading)
[21:21] <mgolisch> ziewback_: whats the modules name?
[21:21] <ziewback_> mgolish: should pressing such a software key do something immeadeately?
[21:22] <bumblebee> hello i have about 30 gb on my root which is of no use and the space is being wasted ,i was planning to repartition it and get another partition of 10-15 gb out of it ,any idea how to do it?
[21:22] <jaroo> hi there. Is it possible to have multiple versions of certain library installed on ubuntu? I'd like to make some experimets with current libxml2 - unfortunately my ubuntu has quite old implementation so I need to compile it from sources. But I would like not to break anything. Are there any suggestions on this? I suppose that gentoo people call this "stacking".
[21:22] <woodworker2001> fccf it doesnt matter if I am running desktop or server version of ubuntu
[21:22] <hatter243> ascheel, I tend to use unetbootin for that. It's sort of hit-and-miss sometimes though
[21:22] <ascheel> bumblebee: I recommend a gparted live CD
[21:22] <btgream> DOES ANYONE USE GFTP??
[21:22] <ziewback_> mgolisch: it seems its iwl3945
[21:22] <RocketLauncher> minimec: the one at packages.ubuntu gives me the same error: Failed to lock /var/cache/apt/archives/lock
[21:22] <mzz> bumblebee: I'm pretty sure you can't online-shrink ext3 or ext4, but gparted off the livecd should make this fairly painless.
[21:22] <fwaokda> ascheel, well it seems very easy using the ubuntu tool by going to "System>Admin>Usb startup disk creator" ...
[21:22] <fccf> Apollo2366: my first thought is you don't have the appropriate debs loaded to do audiofile manipulation
[21:22] <ascheel> hatter243: I've had the same experience.  I've found the easiest solution is to use a USB to IDE converter and just boot from a normal CD
[21:22] <bumblebee> any suggestions for live cd
[21:22] <ascheel> fwaokda: that's true, but that won't have the USB installer on it
[21:23] <bumblebee> knoppix or something else
[21:23] <fccf> woodworker2001: in an educational environment ... no
[21:23] <mzz> bumblebee: what do you intend to use the new partition for, though? A bindmount might allow you to accomplish the same thing without repartitioning.
[21:23] <btgream> DOES ANYONE USE GFTP??
[21:23] <minimec> RocketLauncher: As I said. You have anopther synaptic session open. You have to close all synaptic windows...
[21:23] <moncky> bumblebee: is your home dir in its own partition?
[21:23] <fwaokda> ascheel, whats the usb installer?
[21:23] <bumblebee> and im planning to put mac os x on it
[21:23] <bumblebee> home is separate
[21:23] <RocketLauncher> minimec I dont have any open
[21:23] <peleg> Does anyone know how to change the order of the definitions in dictd? /etc/dictd/dictd.order does not change anythin
[21:23] <ascheel> fwaokda: repeat that, fwaokda?  I don't understand what you're asking.
[21:23] <ziewback_> mgolisch: if this is just a software button is there a possibility to tell the module the button is always on?
[21:23] <Apollo2366> fccf, What debs do you think I need, and where can I find them? Also, .wav is the only file format that doesn't work.
[21:23] <mzz> btgream: shout less please, and what's your actual question?
[21:23] <mgolisch> ziewback_: if you run: cat /sys/bus/pci/drivers/iwl3945*/rf_kill  in a terminal, what does it output?
[21:23] <moncky> well you could just resize your root partition with gparted
[21:24] <moncky> bumblebee: but back up your stuff first
[21:24] <Agion> hi, would anyone want to help me configure my X? for now it looks like this: http://pastebin.com/m473f9eac
[21:24] <Klowny> if i want the kde look installed what would i install
[21:24] <fwaokda> you said "...that won't have the USB installer on it" I asked what is the "USB installer" your talking about.
[21:24] <Klowny> is it a whole other os?
[21:24] <sjlkg> does anyone know how to open streams from thedailyshow.com with totem?
[21:24] <fwaokda> ascheel, you said "...that won't have the USB installer on it" I asked what is the "USB installer" your talking about.
[21:24] <ascheel> moncky: aye I suggested that, but he will need to do it from a live CD.  Can't resize a mounted partition.
[21:24] <bumblebee> hmmm... i tried putting mac osx vmware does not work
[21:24] <minimec> RocketLauncher: There is a process running. Try to kill that process in the gnome-system-monitor or restart the machine.
[21:24] <akSeya> hi there!!
[21:24] <mgolisch> ziewback_:  cat /sys/bus/pci/drivers/iwl3945/*/rf_kill  sorry forgot a slash
[21:24] <mgolisch> :)
[21:24] <bumblebee> so thought might install it
[21:24] <ascheel> fwaokda: sorry, I meant that won't have the Ubuntu Installer.  I made a typo, I apologize
[21:24] <akSeya> is there anyone here familiar with kino?
[21:24] <mzz> ascheel: you can actually grow a mounted ext4 partition, but you can't shrink it.
[21:24] <btgream> mzz: thank you.. just wondering how someone can access your files using gftp
[21:24] <woodworker> fccf I didnt catch you last answer.... I am not sure what I just did ...... sorry new to this whole thing
[21:25] <RocketLauncher> minimec ok
[21:25] <ascheel> mzz: ah, that I didn't know.  EXT4 only or can you do it with ext2/3
[21:25] <mzz> btgream: iirc gftp is just a client, so they can't
[21:25] <mzz> ascheel: I suspect you can do it with ext3 too. I don't know about reiser.
[21:25] <mgolisch> and its not been maintained for ages
[21:25] <quentusrex> Where should I go to get information on Ubuntu and Nvidia with multiple graphics cards and multiple monitors?
[21:25] <mgolisch> id use something else
[21:25] <mgolisch> filezilla for example
[21:25] <btgream> mzz: wack! thanks!
[21:25] <quentusrex> I have two cards with 4 monitors...
[21:25] <bumblebee> any suggestions for live cd .....
[21:25] <akSeya> i'm trying to import a AVI video into kino, so I can cut it a bit, but the importing is taking too long.. it's a 200mb movie and it's importing for about 40 minutes now
[21:25] <moncky> ascheel: bumblebee ahh true in that case just use the ubuntu live cd to resize the partition
[21:25] <fwaokda> ascheel, hmm ok
[21:25] <fwaokda> ascheel, thanks
[21:25] <mzz> ascheel: especially useful if the partition's sitting on an lvm volume, which you can easily resize without having to move partitions around
[21:26] <ziewback_> mgolisch: hm it says no such file or drectory - there is a iwl3945 dir but there is only bind, new_id etc in it
[21:26] <akSeya> it created two files, one .pcm and one .dv .. both are empty
[21:26] <ascheel> fwaokda: you're welcome
[21:26] <bumblebee> ok thats cool
[21:26] <akSeya> sorry.. not .dv its .i420
[21:26] <Klowny> wow 158mb download just to make my ubuntu pretty lol
[21:26] <RocketLauncher> minimec i dont see anything open
[21:27] <ascheel> Klowny: what did you download for that?  haha
[21:27] <Klowny> kubuntu-desktop ascheel
[21:27] <fccf> woodworker: for educational purposes .. no it would not matter which version you'd be usin
[21:27] <ascheel> Klowny: hehe...  good luck with that. :)
[21:27] <minimec> RocketLauncher: 'All processes'-tab. There has do be a process runnung, that blocks apt.
[21:28] <Klowny> why is it bad ascheel???
[21:28] <woodworker> fccf: is one easier than the other?
[21:28] <quentusrex> Where should I go to get information on Ubuntu and Nvidia with multiple graphics cards and multiple monitors?
[21:28] <Apollo2366> fccf, did you catch my response?
[21:28] <quentusrex> I have two cards with 4 monitors...
[21:28] <ziewback_> mgolisch: i tried cat .../iwl3945/0000...00/rfkill/rfkill0/state and it gives me "2"
[21:28] <jjlee> I don't have a bluetooth icon in my gnome panel.  lsusb lists my bluetooth adaptor.  bluetoothd is running.  What else needs to be there for this to work?
[21:28] <ascheel> Klowny: lol KDE is just overwhelming for people new to it, that's all I meant.
[21:28] <BigDennis> say i am trying to get firefox to send irc connection data to xchat, but everything i have tried via the net has been useless.
[21:28] <Klowny> oh i won't bother with it then because i am new to ubuntu period
[21:29] <billy_> hello folks, just made the mistake of upgrading to jaunty, whilst have a ATI card! does anyone have a link to a workaround ? thanks
[21:29] <Klowny> i am just sick of 2 bars on top and bottom
[21:29] <Klowny> i just want one bar
[21:29] <ascheel> Klowny: you can customize those bars.
[21:29] <ascheel> Klowny: right-click the one you don't want and remove it
[21:29] <Klowny> i've tried ascheel i am too stupid lol
[21:29] <fccf> Apollo2366: in Synaptic .. search for wav and install the actual wave plugins/drivers ... not sure what they all are called ... work with the discriptions
[21:29] <BigDennis> have the white screen of death billy?
[21:29] <Klowny> no ascheel because then i dunno how to get everything on one bar safely lol
[21:29] <roberto_> msg %s xdcc list
[21:29] <moncky> fccf:try apt-cache search <thing>
[21:29] <RocketLauncher> minimec i dont see it unless i don't know what I'm really looking at. is there any way to save a log of this?
[21:30] <Apollo2366> fccf, I can play any other .wav just fine. It's just this one that doesn't work.
[21:30] <velcroshooz> following a howto for cpu scaling, wants me to go to gconf-editor under gnome-power-manager, and the heading 'cpufreq' under that. its not listed. what gives?
[21:30] <leaf-sheep> Klowny: Just drag all applets from top panel to bottom panel.  Oh by the way, they're called panels.
[21:31] <Klowny> ok leaf-sheep
[21:31] <minimec> RocketLauncher: Just restart that machine. There is something blocking the installation software apt. That's the error message you showed me. Restarting the machine, or maybe even a basic logout/login will kill that process, if you don't find it.
[21:31] <Dreki> billy_: my friend and i just upgraded also, he has an ati card, and i have an nvidia, I installed mine and everything works great, however, it took him 12 hours to figure out a way to get his drivers to work, im not sure what he did to fix it tho sry...
[21:31] <moncky> minimec: RocketLauncher ps
[21:31] <RocketLauncher> minimec i'll restart
[21:32] <woodworker> fccf:  do you have any insight to installing Ubuntu onto a flash drive?
[21:32] <mgolisch> ziewback_: tried setting it to 0?
[21:32] <billy_> Dreki: thanks... I may down grade until its fixed
[21:33] <ziewback_> mgolisch: not yet
[21:33] <fccf> !usb | woodworker
[21:33] <mgolisch> ziewback_: try to do so and then reload the module
[21:33] <ziewback_> mgolisch: how do i reload the module?
[21:34] <woodworker> fccf: I wan to install to a bootable flash drive not from a flash drive
[21:34] <mgolisch> ziewback_: sudo modprobe -r modulename; sudo modprobe modulename
[21:34] <fccf> woodworker: look at the persistant install .. second link
[21:34] <bastidrazor> Klowny, http://yfrog.com/b7screenshottoip
[21:34] <Evelina> I have rtcwake -s 180 -m mem last in a bash script, but the script doesn't execute the command, why? the command works when I run it from command line manually using sudo rtcwake -s 180 -m mem.
[21:35] <Sirisian|Work> Simple. I'm trying to grep my whole HD and put all the results in a folder. What am I doing wrong. Did I miss some single quotes? grep -r -i repair / > /tmp/foo
[21:35] <Apollo2366> fccf, I think I'm just not saving it correctly or something. Any idea?
[21:35] <ziewback_> mgolisch: sudo echo 0 | /sys/.../iwletc.../state gives me permission denied
[21:35] <Evelina> I am sure the script executes because it writes a file to my home folder.
[21:35] <mgolisch> ziewback_: do sudo -s before then enter the command in a root shell
[21:35] <brentv911> i'm curiouse.  is there are help web sites for setting up a VPN on ubuntu
[21:35] <moncky> Evelina: can you put the script into pastebin?
[21:35] <fccf> !vpn
[21:35] <Dreki> billy_: well, i know that he got it fixed somehow, id try downloading ATI drivers make the file runable and run it directly, i think thats how he started...
[21:35] <mgolisch> ziewback_: also use echo foo > bar
[21:36] <Evelina> mgolisch: I have a cron job that I have created using sudo crontab -e. Wouldn't the script be run as root then?
[21:36] <ascheel> Evelina: yes
[21:36] <mgolisch> Evelina: it should
[21:36] <RocketLauncher> minimec i'm going to try to do it now
[21:36] <minimec> RocketLauncher: Yeah. Let's hope for the best.
[21:36] <bastidrazor> brentv911, http://tinyurl.com/mrflnt   take your pick
[21:37] <pelle_k> Hey people. Can anyone tell me how to list *manually* (i mean by the defention of the *word*, not by apt(itudes) defenition) such as debfoster does it, using aptitude? According to debfoster's homepage it's deprecated just because aptitude has this functionality, but i haven't been able to replicate it. I'm not looking for another "dpkg --get-selections" script mind you.
[21:37] <Evelina> mgolisch: Strange, but the command rtcwake -s 180 -m mem doesn't execute at all. When I run it manually with sudo in front it will.
[21:37] <fccf> Apollo2366: er um ... not really ... make sure you have the right encoders and such .. not sure how well audacity works with wav
[21:37] <ascheel> Evelina: to be sure it's set up as root, look at the files in the directory:  /var/spool/cron/crontabs   each file is the cron for the user the file is named after.
[21:37] <moncky> Evelina: is the crontab running the command, or does id execute a .sh script that you wrote?
[21:37] <RocketLauncher> minimec install successful brb
[21:37] <woodworker> fccf:  I have tried 3 times to install direct to flash drive..... but when I place the GRUB file to /dev/sdb1 and try to reboot it comes up with a damaged or invalid bootable partition error.
[21:37] <ascheel> moncky: even if it's a script, it's being executed as the user it's in the crontab under
[21:37] <Apollo2366> fccf, thanks anyway...
[21:37] <mgolisch> Evelina: the cron daemon might have a different environemnt, make sure to use full paths to executables
[21:38] <ziewback_> mgolisch: gmesg says the rf_kill switch is still on
[21:38] <Evelina> moncky: The crontab is running a script where the last line is rtcwake -s 180 -m mem.
[21:38] <mgolisch> ziewback_: but cat on the state thing doenst say 2 anymore?
[21:38] <Evelina> moncky: I'm sure the cron job work because the script also creates a file in my home folder.
[21:38] <leaf-sheep> pelle_k: Sounds like you want Computer Janitor.  Not sure.
[21:39] <moncky> ascheel: so file ownership ok?
[21:39] <ascheel> moncky: file ownership only relates to the permissions as to whether cron can execute it.
[21:39] <ivan_> hey so i am stumped, every time i reboot and start ubuntu it starts in text mode, ive tried looking but apparently no one has a problem like this in the forums. can anyone please show me how to start it "graphically"
[21:39] <Evelina> mgolisch: Hm, I'll check it out.
[21:39] <mooseburger> When I plug in my ipod, rhythmbox starts playing music in my other user account. I fix this by using top to see the pid of rhythmbox, and then killing it. Any idea how to prevent this from happening in the first place though?
[21:39] <fccf> woodworker: hmm perhaps you need to run grub on the disk, as opposed to putting the file on ...
[21:39] <ziewback_> mgolisch: just lokked and it still says 2 after setting it
[21:40] <fccf> !grub | woodworker .. see this
[21:40] <pelle_k> leaf-sheep: this only lists packages "not needed" anymore, or not in the repos, probably a bug. Thanks for trying though :)
[21:40] <syslq78> Anyone installed vlc 1.0.0?
[21:40] <ivan_> so.... anyone got any ideas
[21:40] <ascheel> syslq78: I have and it works wonderfully for me
[21:40] <leaf-sheep> !x | ivan_ (See the command).
[21:41] <woodworker> fccf:  it gives me the option to put the file on my master boot list, but then the usb drive is only good on one computer
[21:41] <pelle_k> syslq78, sure. It runs great..
[21:41] <leaf-sheep> ivan_: Gnome?
[21:41] <Evelina> ascheel: When I do ls /var/spool/cron/cronjob I only get root as an answer in Terminal. So I think the cron job is executed as root.
[21:41] <ascheel> ivan:  update-rc.d gdm add
[21:41] <syslq78> Guys have you used the deb provided on vlc web site?
[21:41] <Cypher67_> how can i change the native drive of my tp-link wireless card for the ndiswrapper driver?
[21:41] <syslq78> Or is it in some repo?
[21:41] <ivan_> alright thanks
[21:41] <billy_> Dreki: thanks ...I'll give it a try
[21:41] <fccf> woodworker: see the second link about grub ... you can install directly to the stick
[21:41] <ascheel> Evelina, that's correct.  That 'root' file is a text file, it contains your cron.  If you ONLY have root, then it will be executed as that user
[21:42] <woodworker> fccf:  I am looking at that now
[21:42] <ascheel> syslq78: I did use that deb.  Worked ok for me.
[21:42] <mgolisch> ziewback_: strange, what version of ubuntu do you run?
[21:42] <mgolisch> ziewback_: also make sure to install all upgrades
[21:42] <ziewback_> mgolisch: 9.04
[21:42] <syslq78> ascheel, thanks I'm looking forward to upgrading
[21:42] <mgolisch> updates
[21:42] <pelle_k> syslq78: well i installed it from this page, http://philip.magicalforest.se/ .
[21:42] <ziewback_> mgolisch: hard without wlan.. :)
[21:43] <mgolisch> theres been alot of changes with that rfkill stuff in recent kernel versions
[21:43] <ivan_> thanks so  "sudo /etc/init.d/?dm restart" will restart the graphical interface?
[21:43] <Evelina> Hm, I'm not sure rtcwake is even installed.  Of course it's installed. I have run it from Terminal. :(
[21:43] <Nan0fire> nano
[21:44] <syslq78> I have heard vlc 1.0.0 has way better interface. VLC is kickass software with sad interface :)
[21:44] <RocketLauncher> minimec, i'm on windows right now. When I restarted Ubuntu, i saw a bunch of static and it's frozen
[21:44] <pioter> !!
[21:44] <ivan_> got it thank you
[21:44] <Evelina> How do I find the path to rtcwake?
[21:44] <Evelina> I tried find rtcwake without any luck.
[21:44] <ascheel> Evelina: which rtcwake
[21:44] <Evelina> ascheel: Ok
[21:45] <ziewback_> mgolisch: at the moment not - well will try after updates
[21:45] <ziewback_> mgolisch: thx for now
[21:45] <woodworker> fccf:  I am trying to do this from windows...... I am not currently running linux.... arent these instructions from linux?
[21:45] <Evelina> /usr/sbin/rtcwake
[21:45] <ascheel> Evelina: there ya go
[21:45] <amitay> join #django
[21:45] <Evelina> I'll try to put the path before the command in my script.
[21:45] <amitay> oops me. Sorry.
[21:46] <mgolisch> ziewback_: you could also try to play with the enable/disable wlan thing in networkmanager, or doesnt it see it at all=
[21:46] <mgolisch> ?
[21:46] <RocketLauncher> i'm quitting linux minimec bye
[21:46] <minimec> RocketLauncher: Shouldn't be like that. That's why I wanted you to install it the Ubuntu way. I was pretty sure, that you will avoid that kind of problems...
[21:47] <pelle_k> syslq78: well vlc from repos had that bug where the video window is separated from the main gui, but with 1.0 thats fixed, fortunately. I prefer totem though *hides*
[21:47] <ziewback_> mgolisch: i found someone stating a solution on http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-453380.html - but he says one should modprobe fsam7400 (works) and then i should "echo 1 > /proc/driver/wireless/radio" but there is no /proc/wireless - btw there is no wlan on network manager
[21:47] <syslq78> pelle_k, bug? I thought that's a feature
[21:47] <Evelina> Thanks guys. I'll try it out right now, will see how it goes.
[21:48] <syslq78> pelle_k, totem is mplayer fork isnt it?
[21:49] <Cypher67> why when i try to use ndiswrapper it returns a message that the hardware is not present?
[21:50] <Evelina> What is the difference between: wget -O /dev/null "http://..." and wget "http://..." > /dev/null
[21:50] <mgolisch> Evelina: none
[21:50] <pelle_k> syslq78: bug/feature, to each his own. But i would like to have the choice for both modes.. Totem is not an mplayer fork, it's a gnome application using gstreamer while mplayer uses windows codecs (win32codecs) actually...
[21:50] <ivan_> i tried it but when it wrote "starting GNOME" it failed
[21:50] <Evelina> mgolisch: Ok, just wondering.
[21:51] <syslq78> mplayer is using windows codecs?
[21:51] <mgolisch> mplayer draws most of it supported formats from ffmpegs libavcodecs
[21:51] <mgolisch> just like vlc
[21:51] <mgolisch> and i think both are supperior to gstreamer based stuff
[21:51] <mgolisch> in many ways
[21:52] <Radtoo> syslq78: ya, it can use a few windows codecs but usually its using native codecs
[21:52] <Cypher67> why when i try to use ndiswrapper it returns a message that the hardware is not present?
[21:52] <mgolisch> Cypher67: is the hardware present?
[21:52] <mgolisch> Cypher67: you probably loaded a inf for a wrong device
[21:52] <syslq78> mgolisch, libvacodecs are open source from what I know
[21:52] <mgolisch> syslq78: yeah ffmpeg is opensource
[21:52] <syslq78> mgolisch, mhm
[21:53] <fergus> flw galera..  fui
[21:53] <mgolisch> its the defacto standard in video encoding/decoding libraries
[21:53] <Evelina> Well, at least rtcwake worked as expected. The computer suspended as it should. Now I only have to get it to work using cron job.
[21:53] <Cypher67> it is present and working with a native linux driver and i am trying to change to a windows driver
[21:53] <mgolisch> Cypher67: why?
[21:53] <ascheel> Evelina, if you need help just ask.  It's a pretty easy and straightforward task
[21:54] <mgolisch> also it will not work if the device is used by another driver allready
[21:54] <mgolisch> you have to unload the driver before
[21:54] <syslq78> Well anyway I didnt meet anything on linux that vlc or mplayer didnt handle so far
[21:54] <Cypher67> because the signal for the wireless is to weak. i have changed in mandriva to a windows driver and the signal improved a lot
[21:54] <mgolisch> yeah, and both have some realy cool feature
[21:54] <Evelina> Is there any problem removing the graphics card belogning to my server and only use the server remote by another computer? Will it do any harm to remove a graphics card from a computer running Ubuntu Server?
[21:54] <mgolisch> both support vdpau for example
[21:54] <mgolisch> which gstreamer based players dont
[21:55] <jeffwheeler> I'd like to use my BT computer in a way counter to what it seems most people use BT for. I'd like to use the hands-free features of my phone to talk through my computer's microphone and speakers.
[21:55] <jeffwheeler> I can't seem to find any resources on that, since most software seems to go the other way.
[21:55] <Evelina> ascheel: Thanks, I will give it a try myself. Thanks for helping me out.
[21:55] <smilecdl> hi - can someone help.....I have just installed ubuntu and it picks up my wireless network but I cannot see the outside world (ping returns network not found)
[21:55] <jeffwheeler> That is, where the computer broadcasts to a handsfree headset, etc.
[21:55] <ascheel> No problem, Evelina
[21:56] <syslq78> Evelina :), nice nick
[21:56] <Evelina> slyWhy?
[21:57] <Evelina> syslq78: Why?
[21:57] <syslq78> Evelina, it's just a name of the girl I once knew that's all
[21:58] <Evelina> syslq78: Ok, it's a Swedish name, I think.
[21:58] <Evelina> syslq78: Maybe used world wide.
[21:59] <woodworker> anyone used UNetbooin to create usb bootable ubuntu?
[21:59] <mgolisch> yeah i think i did that once
[22:00] <mgolisch> why not just use the usb startup disk creator thing?
[22:00] <Evelina> woodworker: I think I have done that, maybe not Ubuntu, but other distros. There is a software in Ubuntu 8.10+ to create bootable flash drives.
[22:00] <Evelina> woodworker: As mgolisch said.
[22:00] <mgolisch> that is if you allready have ubuntu or can boot the livecd on some comp temporarely to create the usb boot thumb drive
[22:00] <Klowny> do i want gtk 1 or 2 as far as gnome-looks.org is concerned?
[22:00] <mneptok> !info usb-creator
[22:00] <woodworker> evelina:  I have seen some of this...... but I am not running ubuntu
[22:01] <mneptok> woodworker: this channel is for questions relating to Ubuntu. not general Linux support.
[22:01] <Evelina> woodworker: Ok, I have used Unetbootin a couple of times.
[22:01] <mgolisch> woodworker: you can just boot the livecd and do it from there or boot it in a virtualisation software
[22:01] <mgolisch> thats how i did it the last times
[22:01] <ramouryan> can any help me with swap partition
[22:02] <velcroshooz> following a howto for cpu scaling, wants me to go to gconf-editor under gnome-power-manager, and the heading 'cpufreq' under that. its not listed. what gives?
[22:02] <woodworker> evelina: is there anything to doing this?
[22:02] <jaymuhz> evening
[22:02] <mneptok> velcroshooz: alt-f2 > gconf-editor
[22:02] <woodworker> mgolisch:  I have only been able to figure out how to burn an image disc and not a livecd
[22:02] <velcroshooz> mneptok: k
[22:03] <tyler_d> I cannot change my ulimit to 8192 for my user, it produces an open file error?
[22:03] <syslq78> It would be a kickass feature if ubuntu installer would allow me to customize packages like the thing fedora has
[22:03] <mgolisch> tyler_d: what produces that error?
[22:03] <velcroshooz> mneptok: i can get into it fine cpufreq is just not listed uner gnome-power-manager
[22:03] <Okay> I'm trying to install vlc using ppa?
[22:04] <ramouryan> swap help pls
[22:04] <jaymuhz> i have a small problem, basically, i just installed the PPC version of Jaunty on an old powerbook, I need to get wifi working by installing the b43-fwcutter package, problem is, I don't have a wired connection. so I can't apt-get it, and I can't find a PPC .deb anywhere on the web
[22:04] <tyler_d> ulimit -n 8192
[22:04] <dask> bonsoir a tous
[22:04] <jaymuhz> anyone know where to look?
[22:04] <mneptok> !ask > ramouryan
[22:04] <losher> velcroshooz: are you sure your cpu supports the feature?
[22:04] <velcroshooz> losher: yes, very
[22:04] <Socah> jaymuhz, wait a sec
[22:04] <mgolisch> jaymuhz: download it from the repo?
[22:04] <losher> velcroshooz: ok, then I'll shut up now...
[22:05] <tyler_d> mgolisch: ulimit -n 8192
[22:05] <jaymuhz> mgolisch: do you know the PPC repo address?
[22:06] <mgolisch> jaymuhz: look in your sources.list?
[22:06] <Socah> jaymuhz, I think google could help you, or see your source.list in ur ppc ubuntu
[22:07] <mgolisch> the archive.ubuntu.com severs dont have anything but i386 and amd64
[22:07] <mgolisch> so it must be alternate servers
[22:07] <velcroshooz> Okay, how about this one, anyone else running jaunty 9.04 64bit with the 185 nvidia 64 bit driver? im getting OpenGL errors in Quake 4 because the 32 bit compatibility layer isnt installed/linked correctly, anyone know a fix for this?
[22:07] <ramouryan> i need to create partition i already have 4 partitions .. a ubuntu ext3 ,a swap,xp ntfs , a compaq files partition.............. i have lot of unpartitioned space of abot 100gb which i want make it as a new partition............ but i cant make more than 4 partitions .............. can any one help me put???????
[22:07] <jaymuhz> I didn't find anything, but yeh, i forgot about source.list, thanks
[22:07] <jaymuhz> gimme a sec, i'll tell you if it works
[22:07] <syslq78> ulimit? I can set restrictions to users such as quotas and process limitations for users?
[22:07] <LordLandon> ramouryan: delete the swap
[22:08] <LordLandon> ramouryan: then make extended partitions
[22:08] <syslq78> That was a question
[22:08] <Okay> I want to install vlc 1.00, so how do i use ppa or that stuff and the keys needed?
[22:08] <ramouryan> LordLandon : if i delete will there not be any problem ??
[22:08] <mgolisch> syslq78: yes, you can limit lots of stuff, like opened filehandles, processes and other stuff
[22:08] <syslq78> mgolisch, thanks
[22:09] <LordLandon> ramouryan: you can make another swap partition, but extended instead of primary.
[22:09] <syslq78> mgolisch, that's bash builtin I guess since it's no man page for it
[22:09] <Socah> Okay, find a ppa repository with vlc, and all needed informations you will find on their site
[22:09] <velcroshooz> Okay: i followed this worked fine - http://tuxarena.blogspot.com/2009/07/how-to-install-vlc-10-from-ubuntu-ppa.html
[22:09] <Okay> Socah, it also says to "install" the key?
[22:09] <jaymuhz> ports.ubuntu.com =]
[22:09] <jaymuhz> ty
[22:10] <Socah> Okay, yes, it is
[22:10] <Okay> just doing sudo apt-key adv --recv-keys --keyserver keyserver.ubuntu.com 7613768D is enough though right
[22:10] <ramouryan> LordLandon : ok if i make new swap partition how can i make the os to recognise it
[22:10] <mgolisch> syslq78: yeah i think it is
[22:10] <velcroshooz> Okay: yes, thats all you do on commandline to add a key
[22:10] <Radtoo> ramouryan: /etc/fstab has it.
[22:10] <Socah> Okay, you can just open key file in browser, copy content, save as file.key, and open with app source manager, import key - all done
[22:11] <Socah> that's what I do, if I don't remember commands
[22:11] <ramouryan> Radtoo: i need to change  /etc/fstab file after making new swap parttition ???
[22:11] <syslq78> Socah, there is apropos :)
[22:11] <Nazaroo> anyone have step by step info on hooking up wireless IBM card?
[22:11] <Socah> syslq78, yes?
[22:12] <Radtoo> ramouryan: yes, just add it there so it gets used for certain.
[22:12] <syslq78> Socah, if you dont remember commands I mean
[22:12] <eshi> is there a reason a ppa repos would be ignored after being added manually?
[22:12] <Socah> ah, yea ;)
[22:12] <Jasur> Is anybody from Asia
[22:12] <syslq78> eshi yeah if you didnt updated it
[22:12] <syslq78> eshi, aptitude update I think
[22:12] <eshi> it was updated
[22:12] <syslq78> eshi, than no
[22:12] <syslq78> eshi, commented?
[22:12] <eshi> well actually i should say update is ignoring it as well
[22:12] <dragon_> Jasur: is that in relation to Ubuntu?
[22:12] <ramouryan> Radtoo : by chance if iam not able to boot the system what should i do??
[22:13] <syslq78> eshi than it's probably commented by mistake
[22:13] <eshi> naw it's not commented
[22:13] <velcroshooz> eshi: its commented out, or incorrect syntax
[22:13] <syslq78> ramouryan, pray
[22:13] <eshi> alright i'll check the syntax again to make sure and ty both
[22:13] <syslq78> ramouryan any messages?
[22:13] <Jasur> hi dracon
[22:14] <Radtoo> ramouryan: uuh... that depends on what is preventing it from booting. its not swap or the lack thereof though, very likely.
[22:14] <ramouryan> syslq78 , nice sugestion thankyou
[22:14] <Okay> so everytime I want a newer version of something, I just do the ppa thing and add those repositories into the /etc/apt/sources.list?
[22:14] <ramouryan> Radtoo : so if there is no swap also system will work ??
[22:14] <syslq78> ramouryan, I was joking, you get any messages while trying to boot, do you get into boot loader?
[22:15] <Okay> and then use the same sudo command to update them?
[22:15] <velcroshooz> Okay: pretty much, find the ppa, add it to sources, add gpg key, sudo apt-get update, done
[22:15] <lacita> I can't figure out why my network:/// will only show 5 of the 40 computers connected to it. I am running Ubuntu 8.10 with the 9.04 upgrade on a Lenovo T3000 laptop.
[22:15] <ramouryan> syslq78 : i havent yet tried ....... i am trying it now
[22:15] <syslq78> mhm
[22:15] <Radtoo> ramouryan: yes, thats correct.
[22:15] <lolo> quit
[22:16] <syslq78> Btw how do you list all computers on network with ubuntu/linux witout using portscan?
[22:16] <Okay> what about firefox 3.5? I heard you can't use it till ubuntu 9.10
[22:16] <ramouryan> Radtoo : can you tell me how to add new swap file to fstab
[22:16] <velcroshooz> Okay: its in the standard repos right now
[22:16] <lacita> syslq78: check your network manager under places
[22:17] <ianm_> is there an ubuntu/linux channel for blind users?
[22:17] <dragon_> !pm > Jasur
[22:17] <Radtoo> syslq78: depends very much on how these computers may be announcing themselves to the network... if they do.
[22:17] <Okay> velcroshooz, it's funny how it's called shiretoko though
[22:17] <Radtoo> syslq78: the only generic way really is a portscan tho.
[22:17] <syslq78> aha
[22:17] <syslq78> thanks
[22:17] <velcroshooz> Okay: thats just the codename for it, not just the beta. i dont understand why either.
[22:17] <ned> is there a way to use the locatedb to find the largest say 10 files on the system?
[22:18] <lacita> syslq78: check your network manager under places
[22:18] <lacita> I can't figure out why my network:/// will only show 5 of the 40 computers connected to it. I am running Ubuntu 8.10 with the 9.04 upgrade on a Lenovo T3000 laptop.
[22:18] <syslq78> lacita, I need it for script
[22:18] <Jasur>  hi ubottu can you send one more time
[22:18] <syslq78> lacita, something like net show in windows
[22:18] <lacita> syslq78: oh.
[22:18] <gogeta> !bot
[22:18] <gogeta> Jasur: lol
[22:18] <syslq78> lacita, thanks anyway
[22:19] <GreyWanderer> hey there. I'm running icewm, and I don't see any way of configuring icewm's behaviour (i.e. whether the panel hides, etc etc)
[22:19] <GreyWanderer> is there still a configuration program rattling around?
[22:19] <lacita> syslq78: I know there's GUI program that i've sed in the past, bt i can't remember what the name was.
[22:19] <ibeekman> anyone know how to install a login theme from the command line?
[22:19] <gogeta> GreyWanderer: try #icewm
[22:19] <GreyWanderer> I did, it's currently silent.
[22:20] <Jasur> sorry i don't think so
[22:20] <Okay> vlc's not starting up for some reason
[22:20] <lacita> I can't figure out why my network:/// will only show 5 of the 40 computers connected to it. I am running Ubuntu 8.10 with the 9.04 upgrade on a Lenovo T3000 laptop.
[22:20] <gogeta> GreyWanderer: we use xfce gnome and kde no icmwm
[22:20] <lacita> Okay: do a killall, and restart.
[22:20] <gogeta> GreyWanderer: and soon lxde
[22:20] <GreyWanderer> heh. And I'm not sure if xfce will actually do what I want either.
[22:20] <lacita> Okay: or ctrl+alt+backspace
[22:20] <firecrotch> syslq78: icepref maybe?
[22:20] <firecrotch> er
[22:20] <gogeta> GreyWanderer: do what
[22:20] <GreyWanderer> hm. That's a point.
[22:20] <Okay> thanks lacita
[22:21] <ibeekman> does anyone know how to install and choose a login theme from the command line?
[22:21] <marsvolta> hello
[22:21] <syslq78> GreyWanderer, what he was meaning to say is just use desktop enviroment not just window manager
[22:21] <firecrotch> GreyWanderer: icepref myabe
[22:21] <marsvolta> geeeks
[22:21] <syslq78> firecrotch, will try thanks
[22:21] <dragon_> !dontzap | lacita
[22:21] <lacita> Okay: or ctrl+alt+backspace
[22:21] <ibeekman> Is it true that I can install it by unpacking the login theme tarball under /usr/share/gdm/themes/  ?
[22:21] <gogeta> GreyWanderer: what can icewm do none else can lol
[22:22] <GreyWanderer> gogeta: what I want is: (1) hide the panel, and (2) when I start up a particular program, have the ability to totally fullscreen that program, i.e. no decorations, the window taking up the full screen.
[22:22] <dragon_> lacita, Okay: Ctrl+Alt+Backspace has been disabled in Ubuntu
[22:22] <Okay> i just did another update for the "fail to recognize distribution" and it works now
[22:22] <GreyWanderer> kde can do it. Metacity can sort of do it if I manually resize/reposition after window creation.
[22:22] <lacita> dragon_: I do it all the time...
[22:22] <ibeekman> anyone familiar with changing the login screen from the command line?
[22:22] <GreyWanderer> icewm can resize/reposition, like Metacity, but I want to hide the panel.
[22:23] <dragon_> lacita: Either you're running and older version of Ubuntu, or you enabled it manually.
[22:23] <gogeta> GreyWanderer: you like the right click menu
[22:23] <gogeta> GreyWanderer: that is a icewm thing
[22:23] <dragon_> ibeekman: what kind of change?
[22:23] <GreyWanderer> gogeta: on what? desktop or panel?
[22:23] <ibeekman> dragon_: change the theme, and install a new theme
[22:23] <GreyWanderer> because on the panel, there's nothing related to preferences.
[22:23] <gogeta> GreyWanderer: on icewm you rrighr click for your menu
[22:24] <smilecdl> any hints on connecting through a wireless?  I am logged onto my network (well it accepted the name and the key) but I cannot actually send or receive any packets
[22:24] <gogeta> right
[22:24] <lacita> I can't figure out why my network:/// will only show 5 of the 40 computers connected to it. Any sggestions wold be welcome
[22:24] <Xubuntnoob> lets say when i type 'ls' and i get a list of files in my directory, i have lots of files that are very very long, and i'd like to manipulate their names, is there a way i can put a switch or something on the ls command to put a number to the file list so i could then type mv 'x' where x=some number?
[22:24] <Xubuntnoob> does that even make sense?
[22:24] <velcroshooz> Okay, how about this one, anyone else running jaunty 9.04 64bit with the 185 nvidia 64 bit driver? im getting OpenGL errors in Quake 4 because the 32 bit compatibility layer isnt installed/linked correctly, anyone know a fix for this?
[22:24] <GreyWanderer> and right-click on the desktop brings up the same as the <Start> button.
[22:25] <zenlunatic> Xubuntnoob, not easy for a noob.  you might want to man sed man awk
[22:25] <gogeta> GreyWanderer: i belve iceprefs is what you whant
[22:25] <gogeta> GreyWanderer: just run it if you cant find it
[22:25] <dragon_> Xubuntnoob: you should consider using the Tab key for auto-completion.
[22:25] <darnell> Does anyone know of a reasonably priced Linux compatible printer/copier/scanner?
[22:25] <dragon_> !wifi | smilecdl
[22:26] <syslq78> Xubuntnoob, you want to rename files by appending them sequence number?
[22:26] <ibeekman> Any thoughts dragon_ ?
[22:26] <Okay> so if we keep adding repositories into the /etc/apt/sources.list, do we ever need to edit it when it becomes bloated?
[22:26] <gogeta> darnell: linux is  comoatble with alot of printers
[22:27] <deany> darnell, I have an epson sx400 all in one that works nice
[22:27] <gogeta> darnell: i prefer kodec printers cost a bit more but there ink is cheap
[22:27] <Xubuntnoob> syslq78 - yea ( i think)  ---> ls -sequence  yields file1=1 file2=2 etc... so then i could type mv (sequence#1) /home/user/short.file.name
[22:27] <theTroy> can please anyone tell me how to write the :   echo "a !bg 'cd" / !cf' "  so that it will give me the : a !bg 'cd" / !cf'   ? and please could you check it in terminal before telling me the answer :(
[22:27] <losher> Xubuntnoob: if you do ls > /tmp/t then the names will go into the file /tmp/t. Then you can edit /tmp/t and on each line put mv <original-long-name> <new-short-name>. When you're satisfied with the file, you can run it as a script and all the mv commands you've written will get executed....
[22:27] <gogeta> darnell: so in the end you save
[22:27] <dragon_> ibeekman: couldn't find one.
[22:28] <GreyWanderer> darn. Apparently it's referred to, but there's no installation candidate.
[22:28] <darnell> Gogeta/Deaney thanks much
[22:28] <GreyWanderer> and thank you for the suggestion, by the way.
[22:28] <GreyWanderer> If icewm doesn't work out, I may even have to look at something as light as fluxbox...
[22:29] <GreyWanderer> problem is, limited memory, and hoggy programs.
[22:29] <gogeta> GreyWanderer: lxde
[22:29] <syslq78> GreyWanderer, how much of memory do you have?
[22:29] <GreyWanderer> 256Mb.
[22:29] <Ahadiel> GreyWanderer, Openbox is nice aswell
[22:29] <lacita> I can't figure out why my network:/// will only show 5 of the 40 computers connected to it. Any sggestions wold be welcome
[22:29] <GreyWanderer> so I hear.
[22:29] <mneptok> OpenBox++
[22:29] <gogeta> GreyWanderer: http://www.lxde.org/
[22:29] <syslq78>  GreyWanderer lxde or xfce should run ok on that and it's full desktop enivroment
[22:30] <GreyWanderer> I know. I've got xfce here but I think it needs tweaking.
[22:30] <gogeta> xfce is to blouted these days
[22:30] <gogeta> bloted
[22:30] <Xubuntnoob> losher - that sounds interesting, -for a different project i want to work on maybe, how could i do something like that where spaces are a problem? such as my music files, from windows rips the tracks all have spaces, how could i use a script like that but 'escape the space'
[22:31] <Xubuntnoob> in the least time consuming / tedious manner
[22:31] <GreyWanderer> hm. Time I reset this irssi screen.
[22:31] <losher> Xubuntnoob: just enclose the filename with single quotes e.g. 'my file name.mp3' and the spaces won't be a problem
[22:31] <mneptok> gogeta: "bloated"
[22:31] <Xubuntnoob> ah yes
[22:31] <gogeta> mneptok: heh
[22:32] <velcroshooz> Okay, how about this one, anyone else running jaunty 9.04 64bit with the 185 nvidia 64 bit driver? im getting OpenGL errors in Quake 4 because the 32 bit compatibility layer isnt installed/linked correctly, anyone know a fix for this?
[22:32] <GreyWanderer> hey ho.
[22:32] <gogeta> GreyWanderer: if you relly wnna go light wight ust use xinit
[22:32] <gogeta> heh
[22:32] <GreyWanderer> gogeta: well, I did seriously think of that.
[22:32] <losher> Xubuntnoob: just noticed the 'least time consuming' postscript. In that case, I would use the rename command to change all the spaces to dashes. I think you can do that in a one-liner...
[22:32] <puff> Hey, is it possible to print to a PDF from firefox?
[22:32] <nztal> GreyWanderer, i realize this is a ubuntu support channel, though you were speaking of too bloated de's i discovered a distro based on ubuntu minimal install, using openbox de, that was somewhat rather nice, it seems like it would work well on low end hardware, its called crunchbang (i hope thats not against channel rules) their latest version uses jaunty sources.  of course, anything further, you would have to google for their support channel
[22:33] <GreyWanderer> After all, I wanted to start SecondLife as just the pure client, no other programs.
[22:33] <gogeta> GreyWanderer: but lxde looks alot like gnome but lighter then xfce
[22:33] <syslq78> puff yeah all you need is pdf "printer" and you just print
[22:33] <GreyWanderer> heh.
[22:33] <dragon_> theTroy: these docs might help: http://www.gnu.org/software/bash/manual/bashref.html#Quoting
[22:33] <gogeta> GreyWanderer: look at the screens
[22:34] <gogeta> GreyWanderer: they even have there own netbook remix lxlauncher
[22:34] <puff> syslq78: How do I set that up?  I've gotta web page up in firefox that I had to pay to get, state driver's history for a friend, and I need to print it for him so he can take it into the DMV and argue with them.
[22:34] <theTroy> dragon_ I am aware of that, but it just doenst work
[22:34] <theTroy> dragon_   echo "a \!bg" gives a \!bg and not a !bg
[22:34] <syslq78> puff well the really simple way is to make a screen shoot and print that
[22:35] <puff> Good pooint.
[22:35] <syslq78> puff but otherwise print to ps and use ps2pdf
[22:35] <nztal> puff, you should save that webpage to a file, before its lost, then worry about printing.  seeing as you paid for it
[22:35] <syslq78> puff, first way you dont set anything up
[22:35] <syslq78> nztal, :)
[22:35] <gogeta> GreyWanderer: you can go fs on xninit as well alt enter on most apps or f11 on firefox
[22:35] <GreyWanderer> heh.
[22:35] <mneptok> theTroy: you do not have to escape inside quotes. and usually you use single quotes.
[22:35] <Okay> this is what I get when trying to update transmission to 1.72---"checking for OpenSSL... configure: error: Cannot locate ssl"
[22:35] <GreyWanderer> Anyhow, how do I fullscreen an app on xinit with no WM ?
[22:36] <Okay> then it just stops working when I try ./configure
[22:36] <GreyWanderer> Alt-enter is a WM-support thing.
[22:36] <gogeta> GreyWanderer: as i said alt enter is the fs hotkey for most apps
[22:36] <mneptok> Okay: why are you compiling?
[22:36] <theTroy> mneptok if I use single quotes, I cannot do the ' a !a 'a a' to get the a !a 'a a
[22:36] <Okay> mneptok, i want version 1.72
[22:36] <gogeta> GreyWanderer: f11 firefox
[22:36] <GreyWanderer> with no wm running, there's no ALt-enter for SOME programs (namely, twin and a couple of others)
[22:36] <Xubuntnoob> this is probably getting way over my head, but is there a way in the      mv <long file with spaces> where space = true <escape space> < add _ or .>  /working/directory/long_file_with_spaces ??
[22:36] <puff> nztal: I've saved it, but I seem to recall it didn't get through save/reload very well the last time I had to deal with it, and since he's going to be dealing with burueacrats...
[22:36] <gogeta> GreyWanderer: f11 is normaly the other hotkey
[22:37] <gogeta> pidgin etc
[22:37] <syslq78> puff, cups-pdf
[22:37] <Ramonster> could anyone explain to me what -lcompat is?
[22:37] <GreyWanderer> I do: mv "file with spaces" $(echo "file with spaces" | sed 's/ /_/')
[22:37] <Okay> mneptok, I shouldn't be compiling then?
[22:38] <Ramonster> configure:16633: gcc -o conftest -g -O2 -I/usr/include -I/usr/local/include -Wall -fno-strict-alias$
[22:38] <Ramonster> /usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lcompat
[22:38] <Ramonster>  is in my config log, but what is lcompat?
[22:38] <syslq78> 2
[22:38] <mneptok> Okay: never
[22:38] <mneptok> Okay: https://launchpad.net/~transmissionbt-nightly/+archive/ppa
[22:38] <GreyWanderer> I'm out of here anyhow. Thanks all.
[22:38] <gogeta> GreyWanderer: isnt it mv file\ file is you have a space lol
[22:39] <losher> Ramonster: it is a C compatibility library. I forget what it's for. You need to find its package and install it...
[22:39] <Okay> mneptok, why is compiling not good? because there's already a stable version of 1.72 already?
[22:39] <Xubuntnoob> greywanderer - and that i'm assuming would work in a script like losher was describing?
[22:39] <Ramonster> losher.. what is its package? any chance you know?
[22:39] <fifitixibelle> why is copying files to an sd card (ext3) so slow? says it will take over 2 hours to copy a 5mb file and then returns an error saying unable to copy.
[22:40] <mneptok> Okay: because Ubuntu has a package system that should be used whenever possible. compiling is going to potentially break things.
[22:40] <gogeta> mneptok: not relly as long as he compiles it as a deb first befor installing it should not confflict
[22:40] <Ramonster> losher: what is its package? any chance you know?
[22:41] <Okay> mneptok, I'm at this page. http://ppa.launchpad.net/transmissionbt-nightly/ppa/ubuntu/
[22:41] <KalebsRevenge> hey any1 managed to get SWScanner working on gnome?
[22:41] <CrAzYoNi> Hi all
[22:41] <deany> mneptok, compiling installs to /usr/local and the apt system installs to /usr
[22:41] <losher> Ramonster: I don't see it in 8.04. what is it you're trying to build?
[22:42] <CrAzYoNi> I'm working with Ubuntu Jaunty 9.04 32 bit, I configured my wireless via GNOME, X11 GUI.
[22:42] <Okay> I have x86 and jaunty. So after clicking those, I'm at main/ ,multiverse/, restricted/, and universe/
[22:42] <Okay> which one do i pick?
[22:42] <deany> mneptok, /usr/local even if you make it a deb first.  that way it shouldnt break the packaging system.
[22:42] <mneptok> !compile
[22:42] <mneptok> this is the channel best practice policy. please do not argue about it.
[22:43] <mneptok> Okay: choose the release and platform you use.
[22:43] <ramouryan> i did create new swap partition ....... but how can i know it is being used or not??
[22:43] <CrAzYoNi> While I'm stopping the "Networking" service on tty & try to ping my router I've getting communication, how come?? As I understand the "Networking" service should enable or disable all network communications.. though I'm seem to be missing here some details... please help me :)

[22:46] <Ramonster> losher: Allright, thank you for your time
[22:46] <det_> ramouryan, .. you just need to make room for it (twice the size of your RAM is usually recommended)
[22:46] <Okay> mneptok, what's the deb-src do?
[22:46] <sam_> Hi. When I upgraded to Jaunty, I lost the use of my digital coax. I have an nVidia MCP61. Done a lot of searching and have run alsa-info.sh. Anyone around who can help me get it going again?
[22:46] <stroyan> Ramonster: apt-file search libcompat shows    dietlibc: /usr/lib/diet/lib/libcompat.so  and dietlibc-dev: /usr/lib/diet/lib/libcompat.a
[22:46] <mneptok> Okay: that's for the source code package
[22:46] <smilecdl> need to switch wireless mode to infrastructure

[22:47] <puff> syslq78: cups-pdf?
[22:47] <puff> syslq78:  Is that a package?
[22:47] <det_> ramouryan, could ya post the resulf of "sudo fdisk -l" in pastebin?

[22:48] <kk_> hi I want to install a plasmoid
[22:48] <kk_> where is the $KDEDIR ?
[22:48] <jrib> kk_: what are you trying to accomplish?
[22:48] <stroyan> Ramonster: The gcc -lcompat error indicates a need for libcompat.so or libcompat.a.  Those dietlibc and dietlibc-dev packages provide those library files, (and header files).
[22:49] <losher> Ramonster: it means you need to try 'sudo apt-get install dietlibc-dev' and see if your problem goes away
[22:49] <kk_> jrib, Im following this: http://techbase.kde.org/Development/Tutorials/Plasma/GettingStarted
[22:49] <Okay> mneptok, okay. I added "deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/transmissionbt-nightly/ppa/ubuntu" to the end and saved
[22:49] <Spirits-Sight> is there any slim winxp that I can run on ubuntu (I do hold a xp licence) ?  I don't want a full blown version as I just need it so I can do a update to my cell phone and thats it to HardSPL???
[22:49] <kk_> oh
[22:49] <Ramonster> stroyan: thanks
[22:49] <kk_> jrib, sorry solved :D
[22:49] <Ramonster> losher: thanks
[22:49] <mneptok> Okay: in a terminal, paste - sudo apt-key adv --keyserver keyserver.ubuntu.com --recv-keys 22202A6B
[22:50] <deany> theraptor, audacity and the reverse effect.
[22:50] <theraptor> thanks
[22:50] <theraptor> ill try that
[22:50] <Okay> mneptok, just curious, where did you get that command from? on the website I was on?
[22:50] <mneptok> Okay: yes
[22:50] <Slart> Spirits-Sight: not sure if there is a slim version..but the regular xp works nicely in a vm...
[22:50] <mneptok> Okay: done?

[22:51] <Slart> Spirits-Sight: I use it to run my scanner software for example
[22:51] <Okay> mneptok, it's still working
[22:51] <deany> theraptor, works because I just tested it on ozzy`s "bloodbath in paradise" .. apparently my mother sells whelks in hull, :)  and i`m from hull as well :)
[22:51] <mneptok> Okay: keyserver.ubuntu.com can be slow
[22:51] <theraptor> thanks
[22:52] <theraptor> im trying it on stairway to heaven
[22:52] <mneptok> deany: London 0 | Hull 4
[22:52] <losher> Spirits-Sight: the update app may work in wine. Failing that, you'll need a full XP install into an emulator like vbox. Beware that some apps may brick your phone if they malfunction....
[22:52] <syslq78> theraptor, Zeppelin fan?
[22:52] <syslq78> theraptor, are you an old hack ?
[22:52] <det_> ramouryan, it seems you have 5 partitions on the same hard drive, am I correct?
[22:53] <theraptor> not old xD
[22:53] <Okay> mneptok, okay I ran sudo apt-get update
[22:53] <mneptok> Okay: sudo apt-get upgrade
[22:53] <mneptok> Okay: and you will get a nightly version of Transmission
[22:53] <syslq78> theraptor, ah, so you only have a good taste for music than
[22:53] <theraptor> yeah
[22:53] <mneptok> Okay: and you will continue to get nightly builds via the package system
[22:53] <Okay> mneptok, "0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 0 not upgraded."
[22:53] <det_> ramouryan, I don't know, how you have managed to do so but the max. limit for partitions is 4 for a single had drive
[22:54] <det_> hard*
[22:54] <ramouryan> det_ :: one of them is extended partition
[22:54] <Slart> ramouryan: for *primary* partitions
[22:54] <det_> ramouryan, just one?
[22:54] <Okay> mneptok, I checked and it's still 1.51
[22:54] <Slart> ramouryan: sorry.. was meant for det_
[22:54] <losher> ramouryan: good. Now you can add new partitions inside the extended partition...
[22:54] <Spirits-Sight> losher or Slart could you tell me more of how to do this please?  does ubuntu have vm already built in?  please PM me so I can follow iwht out all the other stuff interfering with me being able to read.  I am blind its a little hard to follow help in here
[22:54] <det_> Slart, that's what I ment :)
[22:54] <mneptok> Okay: you did not use the quotes (" ") in /etc/apt/sources.list, did you?
[22:54] <Slart> Spirits-Sight: no worries
[22:55] <Okay> mneptok, let me recheck
[22:55] <Okay> mneptok, nope, no quotes
[22:55] <ramouryan> det_:/sda2 is extended .. init ihave /sda5 partition which is swap
[22:55] <losher> Slart: can 3 of us join a single PM?
[22:55] <det_> ramouryan, I don't think it helps that you'd have 4 primary partitions and 1 extended
[22:56] <Slart> losher, Spirits-Sight we can create a new channel
[22:56] <Slart> losher, Spirits-Sight: join #spirit
[22:56] <chris_lenz123> !sound
[22:56] <losher> Slart: oh, right...
[22:56] <det_> you should have only 3 primary partitions and 1 extended with multiple partitions
[22:56] <DamiaN> e booo
[22:57] <mneptok> Okay: apt-cache search transmission torrent
[22:57] <mneptok> Okay: do you see "transmissionbt" or "transmission-nightly" or something?
[22:57] <det_> ramouryan, I myself have 2 linux distros and vista - which makes just 3 partitions
[22:57] <losher> Spirits-Sight: are you still there?
[22:57] <Okay> mneptok, no, everything looks fine
[22:58] <Okay> mneptok, transmission-common - lightweight BitTorrent client (common files)

[22:59] <mneptok> Okay: ah, i see the problem

[23:01] <Okay> mneptok, it's still 1.51
[23:02] <deany> extended is always sda4
[23:02] <mneptok> Okay: sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade
[23:02] <deany> so the first logical partition is sda5
[23:02] <det_> ramouryan, you have sda6 and 7? the pastebin result only shows sda1-5
[23:02] <ramouryan> i have only four
[23:02] <puff> mneptok: Ah, thanks, had to create ~/PDF for it to print to.
[23:02] <Okay> mneptok, 0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 0 not upgraded.
[23:02] <deany> or thats how its always been with me
[23:02] <puff> I really need to code up a version of my aptwiki idea.
[23:02] <det_> ramouryan, and if you got 4gb ram, you won't need swap, not with linux. are you even running x86_64?
[23:02] <mohammed510> I have a question
[23:03] <mohammed510> I want to know how to make abootable usb
[23:03] <mohammed510> I have an ISO for linux and a flash memory
[23:03] <det_> mohammed510, you need to burn the image to it
[23:03] <ramouryan> det_:http://pastebin.com/m25be7d78
[23:03] <Okay> mneptok, it has     *   0 source packages (0 bytes)
[23:03] <Okay>     * 0 binary packages (0 bytes)
[23:03] <Okay>     * Estimated repository size: 0 bytes (0.00%) of 1.0 GiB
[23:03] <mneptok> Okay: maybe bortis is not building to his PPA
[23:03] <mohammed510> det_ : I am not talking about CDs
[23:03] <mneptok> Okay: https://edge.launchpad.net/~bortis/+archive/ppa/+build/1086247/+files/transmission_1.72-0ubuntu0~jaunty0_all.deb  <--- install that with dpkg
[23:04] <mohammed510> det_ : I am talking about flash memories
[23:04] <det_> mohammed510, me too
[23:04] <mneptok> mohammed510: sudo apt-get install usb-creator
[23:04] <catharcyst> update manager asks for password. says my root password is wrong. ubuntu karmic
[23:04] <ramouryan> det_:: i dont  known if its x86_64 or not !!
[23:04] <det_> ramouryan, where did those two partitions come from?
[23:04] <Okay> mneptok, Error: Dependency is not satisfiable: transmission-cli (>= 1.72-0ubuntu0~jaunty0)
[23:04] <techbw> th0r: thnx found tuxshop from that link.
[23:04] <det_> ramouryan, I mean are you running 32-bit or 64-bit?
[23:05] <Slart> catharcyst: ubuntu doesn't use a root password.. use your user password
[23:05] <ramouryan> det_:: its 32 bit
[23:05] <Slart> catharcyst: and karmic support is in #ubuntu+1
[23:05] <catharcyst> slart it does not work
[23:05] <det_> ramouryan, there you go :). well the max. RAM is still about 3.3gb so that's not gonna end
[23:05] <catharcyst> Slart ok
[23:05] <RandomTime> I hate the fact that there's no root at all for ubuntu, horrible idea
[23:06] <BCM431> The other users cant use sound on my computer. they get the error audiotestsrc wave=sine freq=512 ! audioconvert ! audioresample ! gconfaudiosink profile=chat: Could not open audio device for playback.You don't have permission to open the device. Why is this?
[23:06] <jrib> RandomTime: you are misinformed.  Why do you have that opinion?
[23:06] <mneptok> Okay: so try bortis' main PPA - deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/bortis/ppa/ubuntu jaunty main
[23:06] <Slart> RandomTime: root is there.. there just isn't a root password.. and I actually think it's a good idea.. what do you feel is bad about it?
[23:06] <clearzen> RandomTime: then set a root password if it bothers you that much
[23:06] <det_> ramouryan, the rest of your RAM will be shared with your graphics card
[23:06] <RandomTime> Prehaps I will
[23:06] <Slart> !supportroot | clearzen
[23:06] <mneptok> Okay: must go. ~40C in the office. time for siesta.
[23:06] <RandomTime> I probably am misinformed about the root password, but my inner Tux feels safer with one on
[23:07] <clearzen> cool, ok I mean use debian instead
[23:07] <mneptok> RandomTime: sudo -i
[23:07] <ramouryan> idet_ :: i divided extended volume i.e /sda2 into three partitions ..one swap and two fat 32 filesystems
[23:07] <bastidrazor> BCM431, add the users to pulse-rt group
[23:07] <det_> RandomTime, then your distro shouldn't be ubuntu
[23:07] <bucky> RandomTime: there was an opportunity for you to change that during the install.. may have been in the expert install tho
[23:07] <cfedde> it's easy enough to set a root password after the fact.
[23:07] <mneptok> RandomTime: do not set a password, use sudo -i
[23:07] <Okay> mneptok, thanks for all your help. I learned a lot today. :D
[23:08] <mneptok> Okay: np np
[23:08] <cfedde> also no root password is different than a null root password.
[23:08] <RandomTime> bucky: I think it is expert only, I used the live CD default
[23:08] <bucky> RandomTime: expert install was an option at the boot up screen
[23:08] <ramouryan> det_ i am restarting the system

[23:12] <det_> clearzen, haven't tested with my xfce though
[23:12] <jrib> freax: (get the deb and install it)
[23:12] <Pici> det_: Then you'll need to ask in #archlinux, NOT here.
[23:12] <clearzen> det_: then the setting is in gconf-editor
[23:12] <bastidrazor> freax, or get the deb..... as jrib said
[23:12] <Pici> clearzen: Please continue in #archlinux
[23:12] <clearzen> det_: but ppl are elitist here so I guess i can't help you
[23:12] <mohammed510> How can I make sure that the ISO I have downloaded have no errors with the gpg check?
[23:13] <freax> jrib: the problem is that there is no single deb... :(
[23:13] <Slart> mohammed510: I would use the checksum..
[23:13] <Slart> !md5 | mohammed510
[23:13] <Okay> anyone know the key for transmission 1.72
[23:13] <jrib> freax: yes there is...
[23:13] <nztal> clearzen, no one is being a elitist here.  they simply are trying to keep order by setting simple rules.
[23:13] <Slart> freax: use the "generate download script" function in synaptic..
[23:14] <chris_lenz123> i cant get sound to work in youtube or any games. I can cat stuff to /dev/dsp and hear it in totem music player, and the totem plugin for firefox, but thats it
