[04:41] <bodi> driver for the drive brand and model
[04:41] <Hilikus> Beezie: internal sata ?
[04:42] <Guest89544> MSK: I guess its probably just a matter of getting your mic configed
[04:42] <losha> Joshh100: the point of .idx and .sub is that they are images, not text, so you can do any character in them, even hieroglyphics...
[04:42] <Beezie> no sorry i meant i am using a sata > usb device
[04:42] <minh> HI
[04:42] <UbuntuLily> Bodi - I didn't see one.  Its a TSSTcorp TS-L632M
[04:42] <UbuntuLily> its a laptop Slim
[04:42] <minh> WHY MY NETWORK IS SLOW
[04:42] <minh> ?
[04:42] <Beezie> WHY CAPS?
[04:43] <UbuntuLily> Beezie - I am using one.  Whatcha wanna know?
[04:43] <Billiard> losha: like you would want to do odd characters like that, you shouldnt need anything not in utf-8
[04:43] <Beezie> i wasnt asking, hiliwas asking if anyone had  sata > ide working
[04:43] <MSK> Guest89444 : Yes i have tried with kopette.. but there is only video chat and there is no audio chat. I thought some one might have come accross with this issue so i enquired here.
[04:43] <Beezie> Hilikus, i mean
[04:43] <Guest62007> losha, is that guide for 9.10? it talks about modifing menu.lst...
[04:43] <Joshh100> losha, but they dont work in ubuntu so they suck
[04:44] <greezmunkey> minh, what is your question? Please be specific.
[04:44] <Guest62007> !grub2 | Guest62007
[04:44] <bodi> google it brand and model installed on ubuntu see if it comes up
[04:44] <sal_> jordan. try this doc https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Driver/bcm43xx
[04:44] <Joshh100> but I see what you're saying
[04:44] <Hilikus> !grub2
[04:44] <Joshh100> I suppose if I wanted to watch a movie in hebrew of russian it would be useful
[04:44] <losha> !grub2 | Guest62007: for 9.10
[04:44] <tsunami> how can i open a shell as root?
[04:44] <Beezie> tsunami, sudo su
[04:45] <syk> !root
[04:45] <scunizi> tsunami: if you have to log in as root in a shell.. sudo -i
[04:45] <Bondy> but you can set a root password by doing a sudo passwd root
[04:46] <scunizi> tsunami: are you coming from another distro?
[04:46] <tsunami> centos
[04:46] <Rajasun> Bondy: Not  recommended officially in Ubuntu.
[04:47] <ZeroKewl> help with audio in games has a buzzing sound with Realtek HD sound card
[04:47] <losha> Bondy: I routinely do that, although it's considered heresy...
[04:47] <scunizi> tsunami: ah.. no wonder you asked.. sudo is the norm with ubuntu.. there are a few instances you have to be logged in as root to get a package installed or configured.. but that's pretty rare.. sudo works fine for 99% of the time
[04:48] <ZeroKewl> any fix on the sound
[04:48] <losha> scunizi: the only time it's ever mattered to me is when fsck fails during boot. You need a root password to get into single-user mode...
[04:49] <arghh2d2> tsunami: you can try sudo xterm if your in windows
[04:49] <arghh2d2> errr in X, fsck windows
[04:49] <ZeroKewl> i went as far as installing the sound driver from realtek site
[04:49] <greezmunkey> losha, regarding root then, wouldn't it use the same password that sudo uses?
[04:49] <ZeroKewl> and it still does it
[04:49] <isolat3dsh33p> anyone uses the drawer on the panel? It's amazingly slow. =_=
[04:49] <jordan_> according to this site http://linuxwireless.org/en/users/Drivers/b43 my wireless card isnt supported
[04:50] <jordan_> 14e4:4329
[04:50] <jordan_>
[04:50] <losha> greezmunkey: No. sudo wants your user password. Logging in as root requires the root password. Two separate things...
[04:50] <scunizi> isolat3dsh33p: sometimes.. although on my hardy install it's pretty quick.. how's the rest of your graphics?
[04:51] <Bondy> just do a sudo su greezmonkey
[04:51] <greezmunkey> losha, then it would probably be a good idea to give it a password then, I honestly don't remember setting one during install - now second guessing that...
[04:51] <Bondy> ubuntu randomly generates root pass
[04:52] <losha> greezmunkey: officially, I have no opinion on the matter...
[04:52] <scunizi> greezmunkey: you wouldn't have on install.. it doesn't ask..
[04:52] <coz_> so guys what has changed in recent update that I can no longer  use a  export DISPLAY=:0.0  sudo -u gdm gnome-control-center to change karmic's  gdm theme?
[04:52] <Billiard> Bondy: no
[04:52] <hitek88> looking for a GRUB Expert
[04:52] <sal_> is this a new card?  if you need wifi, you may try finding an older card, or a pc type card
[04:52] <Billiard> Bondy: afaik it doesnt
[04:52] <isolat3dsh33p> scunizi: Compiz-fusion works fine, just some problem if I add the dictionary look up to the panel and the drawer. It left out the shadow effect on the destop even though the result window closed
[04:52] <R1_> I need some help please !! I don't know what was removed and why these were removed when I tried to install rdesktop  (sudo aptitude install rdesktop) :  http://pastebin.com/d72ad7dbf
[04:52] <RiotingPacifist> coz_: why cant you use gksudo or kdesudo ?
[04:53] <Entelin> is it easy? / possible? to convert an ext4 filesystem to ext2 ?
[04:53] <coz_> RiotingPacifist,  this is after logging into  ctrl+alt+F1
[04:53] <scunizi> isolat3dsh33p: nvidia?
[04:53] <greezmunkey> I didn't think so, (thought I was crazy for a sec..) So if the drive gets borked, and fsck needs to be implemented what's the proceedure?  You can go the other way ext2 -> ext3 -> ext4 but not backwards...
[04:54] <Billiard> Entelin: what is your ultimate goal in doing this?
[04:54] <jordan_> sometimes windows is better
[04:54] <hitek88> I have installed GRUB to the MBR of my USB drive, and I know grub looks for a few different files when loading. Is it possible to create a small partition that hosts these files without having any OS installed?
[04:54] <sal_> that sounds about right.  i'ld get yourself a $5 card on ebay  the d-link gwl-650 has worked good for me
[04:55] <RiotingPacifist> coz_: try export DISPLAY=:0 ; kdesudo -u gdm gnome-control-center
[04:55] <scunizi> jordan_: *not* .. just better supported by mfger's of equipment..
[04:55] <sal_> sometimes older hardware is better .. like my truck!
[04:55] <coz_> RiotingPacifist,  ok will do that now
[04:55] <losha> jordan_: do what everyone else does. Unload it on ebay for more than you paid and then scour newegg for a card that's known to work...
[04:55] <Entelin> Billiard, well I dual boot this system for gaming, ive got 3 hard drives,  one 1.5 TB drive, and two 400 gig's one for windows, one for linux,  and the 1.5 tb drive to be shared where most all the data will be
[04:55] <jordan_> ok thanks
[04:55] <R1_> Can someone please help me check this  out? I'm pretty sure someone experienced will require no effort answering this =/
[04:55] <Entelin> Billiard, windows can mount ext2, theres nothing for ext4 however
[04:56] <ath_> don't ask to ask R1_
[04:56] <scunizi> R1_: answer what?
[04:56] <isolat3dsh33p> scunizi: nope, ati radeon HD
[04:56] <sal_> jordan.  ditto losha.  research cards and find one known to work well under linux, then find that one
[04:56] <ath_> Entelin, can also mount ext3.
[04:57] <R1_> My question:  I don't know what was removed and why these were removed when I tried to install rdesktop  (sudo aptitude install rdesktop) :  http://pastebin.com/d72ad7dbf
[04:57] <scunizi> isolat3dsh33p: no experience with ati unfoutunately.. but if everything else works well it's probably not the driver.
[04:57] <Billiard> Entelin: you might be able to mount ext4 as ext2 somewhat as read only, but im not sure
[04:57] <R1_> I wanted to know if I screwed something up by using aptitude install rdesktop
[04:57] <isolat3dsh33p> scunizi: yeah, maybe the panel is just buggy.
[04:57] <Beezie> R1_, how so?
[04:58] <dtownhero> R1_: no.
[04:58] <mine> windows can mount ext2?  are you sure  ,how to
[04:58] <coz_> well that diditn work either
[04:58] <Beezie> mine, might need a driver but yeah win32 talks to ext2/3
[04:58] <R1_> How come all those things were removed then? When I typed in the command. Just wondering
[04:58] <scunizi> R1_: nope.. but there is a remote desktop app already installed.. typically
[04:58] <Billiard> mine: not out of the box you need a download to do it
[04:58] <Entelin> Billiard, you can somewhat but you have to turn off any ext4 specific features,  so why not just run ext2.  Thats the same for ext3 i think as well
[04:58] <bastid_raZor> http://www.fs-driver.org/  mine
[04:58] <Bondy> would you trust windows with your Linux partitions?
[04:58] <ath_> mine: yes, and ext3, but with 3rdparty support
[04:58] <R1_> scunizi, can I used this app to connect to my windows 7 remote desktop?
[04:58] <Beezie> Bondy, sure.. if the driver is mature
[04:59] <Entelin> Bondy, its more a mater of necessity than anything :/
[04:59] <dtownhero> R1_: yes.
[04:59] <Billiard> Entelin: i would use ntfs or something for a shared partition, linux and ntfs is much better than windows and ext
[04:59] <R1_> !remote desktop
[04:59] <R1_> !remotedesktop
[04:59] <Entelin> lol im not sure about that...
[04:59] <dtownhero> R1_: type in terminal rdesktop -g 1024x768 ipaddressofserver
[05:00] <R1_> dtownhero, thanks i was just going to google it
[05:00] <Bondy> I agree with Billard use ntfs on my external drives that need to be used in Linux and Windows
[05:00] <dtownhero> R1_: I use it all the time at work
[05:00] <dtownhero> R1_: the -g is geometry of desktop I.E. size
[05:00] <R1_> dtownhero, says connection reset by peer =/
[05:00] <ath_> or you could use RFS Entelin...
[05:00] <ath_> the possibilities are endless.
[05:00] <ath_> apart from having an end that is.
[05:00] <Guest89544> FAT
[05:01] <Entelin> rfs ?
[05:01] <dtownhero> R1_: I'm assuming you have access this machine before via remote desktop
[05:01] <Entelin> lol fat, no
[05:01] <ath_> reiser fs
[05:01] <Guest89544> fat yes hah
[05:01] <R1_> dtownhero, it's on right now, connected to wifi, same network
[05:02] <dtownhero> R1_: have you ever connected to it via remote desktop?
[05:02] <dtownhero> R1_: did you open the default windows firewall ports?
[05:02] <Passed> text: hello
[05:02] <dtownhero> R1_: can you ping it?
[05:02] <text> how do i do netmetting in ubuntu ?
[05:02] <losha> ath_: reiser is a killer filesystem...
[05:02] <Entelin> ath_, literally
[05:02] <ath_> losha, tell me about it
[05:02] <R1_> dtownhero, I can connect via my other windows 7 machine
[05:03]  * scunizi thinks losha said that with toung in cheek
[05:03] <R1_> So I'm assuming everything's ready to go to try to connect from ubuntu
[05:03] <ath_> but one way or another, there's still support for mount r/w in *nix and windows
[05:03] <ath_> its a valid option...
[05:03] <text> Passed: thanks
[05:03] <dtownhero> R1_: ok try rdesktop -g <size> -u <username> IPADDRESS
[05:03] <Passed> text: welcome

[05:03] <dtownhero> R1_: you can also use the terminal services client in the menu
[05:04] <Guest89544> I like EXT2. specially for servers with SSD's.
[05:04] <[BNC]> just a simple question, how the hell can i forward a subdomain to vmware?
[05:04] <R1_> dtownhero, Lol.... Ohh I thought something was missing
[05:04] <Passed> [BNC]: Hello ! Welcome to ubuntu. I am the new official bot in this channel.

[05:04] <[BNC]> Avash, damnit
[05:04] <[BNC]> anyone?
[05:04] <dtownhero> R1_: you can, for that I'd use a shell script. Otherwise it will ask you to put it in
[05:05] <dtownhero> R1_: the password flag is -p <password>
[05:05] <dtownhero> without the <> obviously
[05:05] <plouffe> how to make mysql start at startup automatically?

[05:05] <dtownhero> R1_: :) np
[05:06] <Bondy> if you installed mysql-server it sould start automatically I think
[05:06] <scunizi> text: do you mean avast?
[05:06] <plouffe> text I get services command not found
[05:06] <losha> ooaaaoo: generally, apt will let you know if it finds there's something wrong...
[05:06] <Dessan> [BNC], what are you trying to do?
[05:06] <xrebel> hi

[05:07] <Jebuz> Anyone have experience installing monodevelop on Ubuntu 9.10?
[05:07] <plouffe> it doesn't now scunizi
[05:07] <foxy_lady> both are linux and populars
[05:07] <Bondy> it is ubuntu is based on debian fedora is based on red hat....
[05:07] <michael> "not uing locking for read only lock file /var/lib/dpkg/lock"
[05:07] <maco> foxy_lady: and also quite different
[05:07] <michael> "unable to rite to /var/cahce/apt/"
[05:08] <Bondy> apt and yum one thing thats diff without going into details
[05:08] <maco> foxy_lady:  we have different package formats, different kernels, different startup processes, different default drivers, different default software...
[05:08]  * foxy_lady slaps Darko for joining #ubuntu
[05:08] <travmon> fix  broken packages   sudo apt-get -f install
[05:08] <[BNC]> michael sudo?
[05:08] <michael> yes
[05:08] <michael> [BNC], yes
[05:08] <[BNC]> type sudo su
[05:08] <ooaaaoo> how do i manually make apt check for broken packages/failed updates ?
[05:08] <losha> ooaaaoo: there's an apt-get check, but I've never needed to run it....
[05:08] <foxy_lady> i don't find anything different
[05:09] <ooaaaoo> travmon: apt-get -f install will check for broken packages?
[05:09] <michael> [BNC], doesn't ask for PW, then same error for apt-get install package
[05:09] <text> sudo apt-get install firefox doesnot work
[05:09] <darthanubis> foxy_lady, what do you need?
[05:09] <[BNC]> ok
[05:09] <dtownhero> michael: what are you trying to do?
[05:09] <[BNC]> michael, try aptitude
[05:09] <michael> [BNC], sudo, or sudo su doesn't ask for PW
[05:09] <plouffe> is there a script for all scripts that get started at startup?
[05:09] <maco> darthanubis: fedora help
[05:09] <foxy_lady> they work the same, they look the same....hence they are same
[05:09] <foxy_lady> text: hello
[05:09] <maco> foxy_lady: they are not the same
[05:09] <text> foxy_lady: oie
[05:09] <michael> dtownhero, reinstall video card from x
[05:09] <Dessan> [BNC], So all your trying to do is NAT forwarding to a VMware? I'm assuming you are on bridged connection on the VMware server so that the VMware is network accessible by default?
[05:09] <darthanubis> maco, is it a troll?
[05:09] <travmon> if synaptic is  running close it b4 install  from  terminal
[05:09] <perith> i downloaded clamAV and gufw, how do i get to the gui part though? cause i dont see it anywhere in the top panel.
[05:09] <maco> foxy_lady: seriously, this channel is just for ubuntu help. you need to go to #fedora
[05:09] <dtownhero> michael: nvidia drivers?
[05:10] <michael> [BNC], hmm, got some errors, but it's orking
[05:10] <happylol> how can I delete a directory that isn't empty?
[05:10] <[BNC]> Dessan, nop! absolutly not! i need a little part (just a subdomain) to be forwarded
[05:10] <michael> dtownhero, intel
[05:10] <ooaaaoo> foxy_lady: or ubuntu-offtopic
[05:10] <thevishy> rm -rf directory
[05:10] <[BNC]> michael, what version is it? :o
[05:10] <darthanubis> happylol, man rm
[05:10] <thevishy> happylol, ^
[05:10] <michael> [BNC], could not resolve 'ca.archive.ubuntu.com'  maybe it doesn't recognize im connected to the internet?
[05:10] <Guiri> How insane is it to try to build a wireless router out of an ubuntu box vs. using pfSense?
[05:10] <dtownhero> michael: FYI for future reference sudo -i will allow you a pure root session.
[05:11] <Alan502> i just installed netbeans but i can find it nowhere :(
[05:11] <pablo> hola
[05:11] <[BNC]> michael, uname -a plz
[05:11] <ashlayne> Question to whomever knows and has a moment: if I were to post code in here, where would I actually need to post it to and then link here? I'm having trouble posting code on the Ubuntu Forums where I'm getting help for an issue because the code is so long.
[05:11] <michael> [BNC], i had the 2.4 version
[05:11] <happylol> aah. thanks
[05:11] <happylol> I was trying rmdir
[05:11] <happylol> heh :)
[05:11] <Dessan> [BNC], explain to me your flow, (internet) -> (router with one ip?) -> internal network?
[05:11] <michael> [BNC], 2.6.31-14
[05:11] <[BNC]> hump. how you do that?
[05:11] <darthanubis> happylol, had the same problem years ago
[05:11] <bastid_raZor> foxy_lady: are you trying to say #ubuntu gives better support than #fedora?
[05:11] <[BNC]> Dessan, thats a server, not a desktop crap
[05:11] <Bondy> foxy there is a few differences with ubuntu and fedora apart from what ive already mentioned restarting apache needs diff commands for another example
[05:11] <michael> dtownhero, sorry?  i thought sudo as like 'admin', no?
[05:11] <losha> ashlayne: you could use the pastebin: http://paste.ubuntu.com
[05:11] <happylol> darthanubis: heh :)
[05:12] <Dessan> so all you want to know about is ahost records?
[05:12] <dtownhero> michael: typically yes, for video drivers sometimes no.
[05:12] <happylol> darthanubis: thanks :)
[05:12] <ashlayne> Losha- thank you! That's what I was trying to remember. =D
[05:12] <happylol> thevishy: thanks :)
[05:12] <happylol> bye bye take care
[05:12] <darthanubis> happylol, yw
[05:12] <thevishy> yw :)
[05:12] <[BNC]> Dessan, i dunno how to set mysub.example.com to my virtual machine.
[05:12] <Alan502> where can i launch programs? other than alt+F2 and the menu bar
[05:12] <bastid_raZor> [BNC]: possibly ask in #wmware
[05:12] <cn28h> from a terminal
[05:12] <michael> dtownhero, do you know this error maybe? ;) "not using locking for read only lock file /var/lib/dpkg/lock" and "unable to rite to /var/cache/apt/"
[05:12] <Dessan> [BNC], so your VM has its own IP address on the internet? not a shared one internally?
[05:13] <dtownhero> Alan502: type <programname> in terminal
[05:13] <[BNC]> ummm nop
[05:13] <dtownhero> Alan502: I.E. netbeans in terminal
[05:13] <michael> [BNC], aptitude started to ork, but err http://ca.archive.ubuntu karmic/main
[05:13] <[BNC]> just 192.x
[05:13] <perith> how do i get to the gui for packages i installed? i dont see it anywhere. i.e. i installed ClamAV, gufw, rkhunter, chkrootkit. are these all term cmds?
[05:13] <mine> ok
[05:13] <losha> michael: did you forget to run as root (sudo)?
[05:13] <text> ls
[05:13] <dtownhero> michael: I do not recommend installing video drivers while X is running.
[05:13] <[BNC]> michael, check the /etc/apt/sources.list (if remember good)
[05:13] <scunizi> perith: yep
[05:13] <michael> losha, no, but sudo and sudo su have not asked for P
[05:13] <Bondy> rkhunter and chkrootkit dont have gui
[05:14] <Alan502> dtownhero, i installed netbeans but typing "netbeans" in the terminal says the program is not installed. Althought, when i run the netbeans installer again the instaler says netbeans is already installed
[05:14] <losha> michael: sudo remembers your password for a short time to save typing. But you definitely have some kind of problem....
[05:14] <michael> [BNC], what code do i use to open?  probably not gedit if im just in x
[05:14] <perith> bondy: so rkhunter and chkrootkit i will need to make a term launcher w/ that cmd?
[05:14] <dtownhero> Alan502: I don't know what netbeans is, perhaps you could enlighten me and I could assist further.
[05:14] <[BNC]> cd /etc/apt
[05:14] <ath_> anyone else having problems with proprietary ATI driver 9-11 on 2.6.31-16?
[05:14] <[BNC]> then nano
[05:14] <[BNC]> :)
[05:14] <michael> dtownhero, maybe "x" isn't the right word ... i just have no visual session, just terminal
[05:15] <ath_> eg ubuntu 9.10
[05:15] <dtownhero> michael: that makes more sense
[05:15] <Bondy> perith you need to run them fom a terminal either directly or via a sh scipt
[05:15] <michael> dtownhero, what is that called?
[05:15] <Alan502> dtownhero, ok i'll tell you if i solve my problem. Netbeans is a IDE by the way.
[05:15] <michael> dtownhero, shell?
[05:15] <dtownhero> michael: so you have a shell script for the driver install?
[05:15] <dtownhero> michael: yes.
[05:15] <Bondy> do a man rkhunter
[05:16] <michael> dtownhero, i uninstalled them to try and re-install a new one to fix some issues, but accidentally unistalled both, so no i just have shell
[05:16] <michael> dtownhero, and trying to reinstall the same one i was using gives me those errors i mentioned
[05:16] <peeps> how can I find what package an exectutable is from?
[05:16] <dtownhero> Alan502: I still don't understand what netbeans is, are you saying it is a development environment?
[05:16] <scunizi> michael: I missed it.. what did you uninstall?
[05:16] <michael> dtownhero, aptitude install xserver-xorg-video-all ends with error "could not resolve 'ca.archive.ubuntu.com"
[05:16] <michael> scunizi, video cards :(
[05:16] <losha> michael: the lock file message usually means you've left apt running somewhere....
[05:16] <dtownhero> michael: you likely already have xorg installed
[05:17] <michael> losha, just started the shell :(
[05:17] <dtownhero> michael: from term type sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop
[05:17] <scunizi> michael: nvidia? and did you initially install the driver from their site or the one supplied by ubuntu?
[05:17] <Alan502> dtownhero, yes it is a development environment
[05:17] <dtownhero> scunizi: he's installing intel drivers
[05:18] <Alan502> dtownhero, do you know how can i remove programs?
[05:18] <dtownhero> Alan502: ok
[05:18] <Alan502> dtownhero, is it enough with just deleting its folders?
[05:18] <michael> scunizi, intel, yes it 'worked' on base install, just trying to fix some choppy errors
[05:18] <scunizi> dtownhero: oh.. no experience there.. sorry michael
[05:18] <Samual-Ubuntu> Hey I installed the 180 nVidia drivers from Hardware Drivers, and now I cannot start Compiz as I get this message: Checking for texture_from_pixmap: Segmentation fault
[05:18] <dtownhero> Alan502: sudo apt-get remove --purge <programname>
[05:18] <dtownhero> Alan502: no.
[05:18] <Omen_20> hi. can u use a normal image file to install from a pendrive, or do you need a special image file?
[05:18] <Samual-Ubuntu> I would have installed the latest from the nVidia website, but my TTY consoles do not work :P
[05:19] <michael> dtownhero, said use 'service gdm stop' so i did and "stop: unkown instance:"
[05:19] <dtownhero> Samual-Ubuntu: get the 185 drivers recommended and tested by the ubuntu team
[05:19] <Alan502> dtownhero, i did not install netbeans from synaptic; will that still work?
[05:19] <dtownhero> michael: ignore what it says
[05:19] <maco> michael: that means gdm was already not runnig
[05:19] <dtownhero> Alan502: no.
[05:19] <dtownhero> maco: no it does not.
[05:19] <maco> dtownhero: no?
[05:19] <Alan502> dtownhero, do you know how can i remove the program then?
[05:19] <Samual-Ubuntu> dtownhero,  Where? And can I install them without closing an X session? (Or rather, stopping GDM)
[05:19] <maco> dtownhero: whats it mean then?
[05:20] <dtownhero> maco: no, it means that the service stop package is not accurate
[05:20] <michael> dtownhero, aptitude intall xserver-xorg-video-intel-2.4 gives "segmentation fault"
[05:20] <maco> dtownhero: thats what service tells me when i try to stop kdm or network-manager and theyre not running
[05:20] <dtownhero> Alan502: one sec
[05:20] <Brandon> Hi, I'm trying to create a custom ubuntu live cd with vmware player installed, however there's an issue on installing it from the repository. I can download the file, but I don't exactly know how to do it properly. I'm following this guide https://help.ubuntu.com/community/LiveCDCustomization and am at the part where I'm installing and removing packages that are needed/unneeded.
[05:20] <michael> dtownhero, (that as the video driver i was using)
[05:20] <dtownhero> michael: ok why are you installing xserver?
[05:20] <dtownhero> OHH
[05:20] <michael> dtownhero, no, just video driver
[05:20] <dtownhero> ok one sec
[05:20] <Alan502> dtownhero, ok
[05:20] <dtownhero> lemme read, I'm being overwhelmed
[05:21] <michael> haha lets hear it for dtownhero!!!
[05:21] <dtownhero> ok michael from your term
[05:21] <dtownhero> type p -ef|grep gdm
[05:21] <dtownhero> tell me if you get more then one return
[05:21] <Alan502> michael, i remember having similar problems installing my last video driver. What i did is booting ubuntu in command line interface from grub.
[05:21] <michael> dtownhero, command not found
[05:22] <dtownhero> Alan502: try dpkg -i package name
[05:22] <dtownhero> michael: try ps -ef |grep gdm
[05:22] <Brandon> does anyone seem to understand my situatoin?
[05:22] <michael> Alan502, im kinda there now, just cant reinsall it :( lol
[05:22] <Brandon> situation*
[05:22] <dtownhero> Alan502: sorry dpkg -u packagename
[05:22] <michael> one line
[05:22] <michael> dtownhero, one line
[05:22] <dtownhero> michael: ok cd to where your installer is
[05:22] <michael> dtownhero, ?
[05:23] <Alan502> dtownhero, unkown option: -u    :(
[05:23] <dtownhero> michael: this file you mentioned  xserver-xorg-video-intel-2.4
[05:23] <dtownhero> Alan502: sec
[05:23] <michael> dtownhero, i was just trying to get it online
[05:23] <dtownhero> michael: go to that directory in your terminal
[05:23] <michael> dtownhero, oh maybe that's my problem
[05:23] <dtownhero> you dont' have it?
[05:23] <dtownhero> yes, you need it to install it
[05:23] <dtownhero> do you know the url of the file?
[05:23] <michael> dtownhero, was assuming shell worked like synaptic
[05:23] <Samual-Ubuntu> dtownhero, I'll wait for you to finish up here for a bit, I can see you're... a bit... busy. :X
[05:23] <Brandon> Does anyone understand my scenario?
[05:23] <michael> dtownhero, no i'll find it, sec
[05:24] <dtownhero> if you do you can do a wget <url> and it'll download to that directory
[05:24] <arghh2d2> dtownhero: does he even know how to "cd"?
[05:24] <dtownhero> arghh2d2: I think so
[05:24] <dtownhero> don't matter the root of his shell is fine
[05:24] <perith> is securing shared memory adviseable?
[05:24] <perith> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/StricterDefaults?action=show&redirect=UnsafeDefaults
[05:25] <Beezie> cd is dated, use dvd
[05:25] <michael> dtownhero, actually i dont kno where to find it :(  i just use synaptic and it gets it from the list usually
[05:25]  * dtownhero has some serious adhd kicking in
[05:25] <Bondy> cd as in change directory lol
[05:25] <dtownhero> michael: you are going to either know the package name or where to get it at this point
[05:25]  * Beezie pokes Bondy in the ribs.
[05:25] <dtownhero> I cannot search it for you
[05:25] <digitalaxis> 281
[05:25] <scunizi> Beezie: use usb flash.. dvd is dated
[05:25] <dtownhero> lemme know when you find it
[05:26] <michael> dtownhero, i know package name - xserver-xorg-video-intel-2.4
[05:26] <dtownhero> Alan502: you still there?
[05:26]  * Beezie laughs.
[05:26] <michael> https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ReinhardTartler/X/RevertingIntelDriverTo2.4
[05:26] <Bondy> use blue ray usb flash is outdated oh wait....
[05:26] <powdermilk> hey there, could annyone help me fix a problem i am having with my sata dvd drive?
[05:26] <dtownhero> michael: do sudo apt-get install xserver-xorg-video-intel- and start pressing tab to see if it finds that package
[05:26] <Guest89544> Brandon: You are trying to add vmware onto your custom live disk?
[05:26] <losha> perith: if you have a web server open to the public, it can't hurt. Otherwise, don't bother...
[05:27] <dtownhero> k alan is afk
[05:27] <dtownhero> Samual-Ubuntu: you there?
[05:27] <michael> dtownhero, yes, it finds it but error; "could not resolve 'ca.archive.ubuntu.com'
[05:27] <dtownhero> michael:
[05:27] <michael> i think maybe shell doesn't auto connect to the internet?
[05:27] <dtownhero> michael: sorry lol ahh ok
[05:27] <Tapout2> I'm using ICS+Ubuntu thru Win7.  It works, however where should I put the .. "  route add default gw <IP_ADDRESS>    "    <-- should this go in .. /etc/rc.local ?
[05:27] <dtownhero> yes
[05:27] <Alan502> dtownhero, yes
[05:27] <Samual-Ubuntu> dtownhero, yes
[05:27] <Alan502> dtownhero, i think the problem is that
[05:27] <dtownhero> michael: do ping www.yahoo.com
[05:27] <dtownhero> Alan502: what?
[05:27] <Alan502> dtownhero, im using netbeans instead of netbeans-6.7.1
[05:27] <Alan502> but still
[05:27] <Samual-Ubuntu> dtownhero, where can I find the 185 drivers? And can I install them without closing an X session? (Or rather, stopping GDM)
[05:27] <Beezie> !ask | powdermilk
[05:27] <michael> dtownhero, negative
[05:28] <Alan502> dtownhero, typing netbeans-6.7.1 says "command not found"
[05:28] <michael> how do i connect to the internet in shell?
[05:28] <Brandon> Guest89544 : yes, because it's required for a project
[05:28] <dtownhero> Samual-Ubuntu: yes, you can. Try Menu > Admin > Hardware drivers
[05:28] <amikrop> I am using Firefox 3.5.5 and I cannot set Tools->Preferences->Privacy->Use custom settings for history
[05:28] <Beezie> michael, what do you mean?
[05:28] <dtownhero> Alan502: do a sudo find / -name netbeans
[05:28] <michael> Beezie, can't ping any sites, i think maybe it's just not 'turned on'?
[05:28] <amikrop> I mean, when I set it, it gets to its old value when I close the option box
[05:28] <dtownhero> michael: sec
[05:28] <amikrop> any help, please?
[05:28] <Samual-Ubuntu> dtownhero, I don't see 185 in there, only 180 -- I guess this is where I mention i'm only on 9.04 :P You see, I don't particularly like 9.10 due to it's switch to Grub2
[05:29] <Beezie> michael, what does ifconfig say?
[05:29] <michael> Beezie, in gnome it automatic, but is there a step to do in shell?
[05:29] <dtownhero> michael: yes, that's you man. Fix your internetz.
[05:29] <Tapout2> What is the best location to put a 'route add default...' line in ubuntu?  /etc/rc.local?
[05:29] <Guest89544> Brandon: wouldn't you have to install wine, then install vmware into that?  can't you just use virtualbox?
[05:29] <jaymz281> Hey there people
[05:29] <michael> Beezie, lo, inet addr: <IP_ADDRESS>
[05:29] <powdermilk> ok, im having a problem with my sata dvd drive. when i do a dmesg i get a bunch of messages starting with "ata3.00: status: { DRDY ERR }"
[05:29] <powdermilk> it really plugs up my log
[05:29] <dtownhero> Samual-Ubuntu: go with 180 and there is a really good reason you want the ubuntu install rather than a package install from the video card manufacturer I can explain if you like
[05:29] <Beezie> michael, u dont see eth0 or wlan0 ?
[05:29] <Brandon> Guest89544, vmware player is also supported in linux...
[05:29] <michael> Beezie, no
[05:30] <Brandon> Guest89544 it has to be vmware player, not virtualbox.
[05:30] <dtownhero> michael: that is a loopback address dudde
[05:30] <digitalaxis> powedermilk: This is ubuntu support, if your having hardware issues please use a hardware support IRC
[05:30] <scunizi> dtownhero: Samual-Ubuntu the 190 drivers are pretty quick
[05:30] <Beezie> michael, what type of network card? on board or pci/?
[05:30] <michael> Beezie, im definitely connected tho, was just using windows on dual boot
[05:30] <Guest89544> oh geez, then i've been away too long
[05:30] <dtownhero> you ain't getting nowhere except localhost with that
[05:30] <Samual-Ubuntu> dtownhero, I know the reason -- You then have to recompile for every time you change your kernel -- I know this, because this is why I changed to the ubuntu ones.
[05:30] <Alan502> dtownhero, it should take a while right?
[05:30] <dtownhero> Samual-Ubuntu: you got it brother
[05:30] <Beezie> michael, so it works in win but not ubuntu?
[05:30] <michael> dtownhero, dont see loop addy ... "UP loopback running" and "link encap:local loopback"
[05:30] <losha> powdermilk: are you sure your hardware is ok? I've never gotten those messages from a healthy dvd drive....
[05:30] <Samual-Ubuntu> dtownhero, but well, still, with the 180 ones I can't start compiz
[05:31] <dtownhero> michael: do ping localhost
[05:31] <michael> Beezie, worked in ubuntu fine, and on live disk, just not in shell
[05:31] <dtownhero> and it will resolve to your <IP_ADDRESS>
[05:31] <michael> dtownhero, orks
[05:31] <michael> dtownhero, works
[05:31] <dtownhero> yeah
[05:31] <Beezie> michael, so gnome the net works but not shell??
[05:31] <dtownhero> I know
[05:31] <Samual-Ubuntu> dtownhero, It comes up complaining about texture_from_pixmap segmentation faults.
[05:31] <mine> how to remote desktop to windows  in vmware
[05:31] <michael> dtownhero, how do i cancel ping LOL
[05:31] <Beezie> tctrl c
[05:31] <dtownhero> michael: ctrl + c
[05:31] <dtownhero> Samual-Ubuntu: ick man
[05:31] <powdermilk> losha: yes the drive is fine, this started when i updated to the karmic beta
[05:31] <michael> Beezie, yes, but i have no gnome b/c i uninstalled my vid cards, and trying to reinstall via shell but no inet
[05:32] <Samual-Ubuntu> dtownhero, ick? That doesn't sound good :(
[05:32] <Beezie> michael, what type of network card? on board or pci/?
[05:32] <scunizi> mine: is windows the host? or the guest?  what's running in vmware?
[05:32] <michael> Beezie, board i think
[05:32] <powdermilk> losha: i have seen others with this problem but there fixes dont work
[05:32] <michael> Beezie, laptop
[05:32] <dtownhero> Samual-Ubuntu: you can try to skip thru it or you can head to nvidia.com and get that 180 driver and install from shell
[05:32] <mine> host
[05:32] <Beezie> michael, what does lspci tell you? it see the card?
[05:32] <mine> ubuntu
[05:32] <mine> ubuntu running in vmware
[05:32] <michael> Beezie, lspci says broadcom bcm4401-bo
[05:32] <Beezie> michael, lspci |grep Ethernet
[05:32] <purvesh> hey ubuntu 9.04 is better or ubuntu 9.10 ?
[05:32] <scunizi> Samual-Ubuntu: if you go to nvidia might as well install the latest.. 180 was "ok" but had issues.
[05:32] <Samual-Ubuntu> Skip through what?
[05:33] <michael> Beezie, for 'ethernet controller'  not sure exactly what im looking for tho
[05:33] <Beezie> paste the command i mentioned
[05:33] <dtownhero> michael: or you can edit the rc3.d *stickes* to dhcp
[05:33] <Bondy> you might need the broadcom propiertry driver (sp)
[05:33] <michael> Beezie, yup, that ... can't separate compe
[05:33] <scunizi> mine: so you want to use ubuntu in the vm to remote into the windows host?
[05:33] <Beezie> Bondy, ahhh ive heard about that
[05:33] <mine> yes
[05:33] <michael> Beezie, broadcom copr bcm4401-BO 100base-tx
[05:33] <Guest89544> mine: use remote desktop.  its in the internet menu
[05:34] <Beezie> michael, Bondy had a suggestion
[05:34] <losha> powdermilk: sorry, I don't see anything like that in current karmic. Are you updated to most current?
[05:34] <Samual-Ubuntu> dtownhero, i'll pastebin the output of compiz --replace. http://pastebin.com/m5132819f
[05:34] <perith> i'm trying top open /var/log/rkhunter/log w/ gedit, but it says i dont have permissions. how do i enable that?
[05:34] <mine> how set it to work
[05:34] <powdermilk> losha: yes, all updated
[05:34] <michael> Bondy,  Beezie, i dont think so ... like i said live disk, and ubuntu works just fine ... but i just uninstalled my video card so now only have shell and now only have this problem
[05:34] <Brandon> Guest89544 do you know what to do?
[05:34] <dtownhero> Samual-Ubuntu: yeah dude your xorg.conf is hosed, if you get the 180 drivers and reinstall from shell it should prompt to replace
[05:35] <Beezie> michael, thats as far as i can help i dont know it well enough :/
[05:35] <scunizi> mine: I've had issues doing that in virtualbox and don't remember if I tried when I was using vmware .. I believe it depends on the network connection type.. if it's NAT for the vm then ubuntu may have a different subnet.. if it's bridged it should be on the same subnet.. you might ask in #vmware
[05:35] <powdermilk> losha: also it doesnt give the messages when there is a cd present in the drive
[05:35] <michael> Beezie, Bondy, i remember doing some playing with backtrack where i had to 'turn on' the card ... or am i wrong?
[05:35] <michael> Beezie, well thanks for the help anyway ;)
[05:35] <Samual-Ubuntu> dtownhero, well, I edit my xorg.conf file manually, are you saying it's a matter of an option that I have set which is incorrect? Perhaps I should try commenting out some of the options i've done.
[05:35] <dtownhero> Samual-Ubuntu: you could *maybe* get by it by editing xorg.conf and adding xgl into driver type
[05:35] <Samual-Ubuntu> dtownhero, or rather, i'll pastebin my xorg.conf file so you can see....
[05:36] <michael> Beezie, i guess i could load live cd, and download the file, then install it ... could try that
[05:36] <purvesh> hey ubuntu 9.04 is better or ubuntu 9.10 ?    ,purvesh
[05:36] <mine> ok  it is nat
[05:36] <losha> powdermilk: sorry, dunno. Try googling the model number & see if anyone else reports anything...
[05:36] <scunizi> mine: switch to bridged and try again
[05:36] <mine> ok
[05:36] <michael> isn't there a shell command to 'turn on' and 'turn off' wlan
[05:36] <Samual-Ubuntu> dtownhero, an interesting note: I'm using Xinerama with 3 monitors and xserver-xgl to accomplish Compiz on all three monitors... IT's not exactly the most clean thing in the world.
[05:36] <dtownhero> Samual-Ubuntu: I play wow and tf2 on my linux box via crossover and I'm saying that if I were you I'd reinstall 180 via shell and replace xorg.conf with what the shell script generates
[05:37] <cn28h> michael, ifconfig
[05:37] <michael> cn28h, yes, then?
[05:37] <dtownhero> Samual-Ubuntu: holy shit, I have probs with my xinerama and dual monitor
[05:37] <cn28h> michael, you can use it to put the interface up or down.. it has a number of options, check the man page
[05:37] <michael> cn28h, ifconfig just shows 'lo'
[05:37] <Billiard> michael  ifconfig interface up|down
[05:37] <michael> cn28h, right, thanks
[05:37] <cn28h> then that's the only interface that's currnetly up
[05:37] <dtownhero> how the hell are you running desktop effects to begin with?
[05:37] <perith> how do i enable higher permissions on gedit to open log files or whatnot? do i have to go to term and "sudo gedit <file>" or is there a way from gedit gui?
[05:37] <mine> in vmware can we mount a really disk ?
[05:37] <cn28h> michael, ifconfig -a lists all interfaces
[05:37] <Brandon> scunizi
[05:37] <Billiard> perith: gksudo gedit file
[05:38] <scunizi> mine: "really disk" ?
[05:38] <scunizi> Brandon: yeessss
[05:38] <mine> in the host
[05:38] <perith> billiard: so no way to do it from gedit itself?
[05:38] <dtownhero> Samual-Ubuntu: sounds like I could take a few lessons from you man :(
[05:38] <mine> real
[05:38] <scunizi> mine: probably
[05:38] <dtownhero> I hate being one upped
[05:38] <dtownhero> :p
[05:38] <Brandon> scunizi, you seem to know about vmware and such...can you help me with my issue as well?
[05:38] <Tapout2> VNC only loads when I login, anyway to get it to load before I login?
[05:38] <Billiard> perith: not that i know of
[05:38] <Guest26327> last night, I found that my system(ubuntu 9.10 ) can't use the command "ping" ,and it returns "sendto:Permission denied". i have typed "sudo " and logined in "root",but it didn't work.who can tell me what's wrong happened?
[05:38] <Samual-Ubuntu> dtownhero, well.... Yes... it took me months to finally get xserver-xgl working on all three monitors... Then I noticed that my kernel had a bug with tty servers, and the only way to fix it was upgrading to a new kernel.. And well....
[05:38] <dtownhero> ugh
[05:38] <Samual-Ubuntu> Going to a new kernel meant ditching the old (WORKING) drivers
[05:38] <scunizi> Brandon: I don't know..what's your issue?
[05:38] <michael> cn28h, eth0 and wlan0 are now in ifconfig, but still can't ping ... could you help, or no?
[05:38] <dtownhero> yep I know exactly
[05:39] <Billiard> Guest26327: can you ping with sudo, also please change your name
[05:39] <Samual-Ubuntu> And........................ Basically, I feel like cutting my wrists right now
[05:39] <mine> how to  if i dont install vmtool in ubuntu
[05:39] <Samual-Ubuntu> Or going back to Windows
[05:39] <brutus> i686 means 64 bit right?
[05:39] <Samual-Ubuntu> Which, that's basically the same thing
[05:39] <kraut> moin
[05:39] <dtownhero> that's why I was saying about using their approved drivers, to be honest I was surprised you knew the reason why
[05:39] <scunizi> mine: time to ask in #vmware..
[05:39] <dtownhero> now I understand
[05:39] <mine> ok
[05:39] <cn28h> michael, -a lists them whether they are up or down.. you need to bring it up.. and if you'r using wlan0 you need to associate with an AP and probably use DHCP before you'll be able to ping anything
[05:39] <Billiard> Guest26327: or did you try sudo ping, not sure what you tried with sudo
[05:40] <Samual-Ubuntu> dtownhero, i've been using Linux a while -- but, some times even the experienced people need help from even more experienced people :P
[05:40] <dtownhero> all I can say is good luck
[05:40] <perith> using rkhunter, i got warnings for /user/bin/unhide and /usr/sbin/unhide-linux26, what do they mean? i get that the file exists on system but not present in rkhunter.dat file. nothing to worry about?
[05:40] <Brandon> scunizi: allow me to explain. I'm making a custom ubuntu live cd with vmware player installed. it has to be vmware player. not virtual box. I'm at the point of installing software following the live cd guide on the ubuntu website, but, I can't access the file from the shell I'm using as I chroot to the livecd mount I'm using to customize. if I open up another shell and run the installer,...
[05:40] <Brandon> ...it's only going to install it to my host system that's making the file, and not to the livecd mount that I'm working with.
[05:40] <dtownhero> cause you've got me with that setup
[05:40] <Samual-Ubuntu> Ah well, that's more than what Google said
[05:40] <Samual-Ubuntu> Google just turned up lots of irrelevant shit
[05:40] <dtownhero> I seriously have to fight with my nvidia card to get dual monitor working at work
[05:41] <Brandon> scunizi: I'm trying to find a repository with vmware player instead, but I can't find a repo with it. trying to use apt-get to install it to my livecd mount
[05:41] <michael> how can i download all files needed to instal xserver-xorg-video-intel-2.4, without using synaptic?
[05:41] <Billiard> michael apt-get install <package>
[05:41] <[SilverFox]> I want to check my opengl fps and was wondering what the best way was and how do I tell if its good or not?
[05:41] <michael> Billiard, i just want to download so i can install offline
[05:41] <Samual-Ubuntu> dtownhero, here is my xorg.conf file btw: http://pastebin.com/m54217952
[05:41] <scunizi> Brandon: look in http://packages.ubuntu.com for the player package.. also you might accomplish what you want in one TTY that's chrooted by using "screen"
[05:42] <Samual-Ubuntu> dtownhero, it's... I mean... isn't it sexy?
[05:42] <cheeko> i dont have internet access so where can i download requred updates and pakages
[05:42] <Brandon> scunizi: explain that last part?
[05:42] <Geoffrey2> i have a Dell laptop that has 3-4 different possible laptop screens that could have shipped with it...any way ubuntu could tell me which one it is?
[05:42] <Arkade> hi, can a ext3 fs be upgraded to ext4 without reformatting?
[05:42] <Samual-Ubuntu> Er, it's out of order in one place
[05:42] <Samual-Ubuntu> But..
[05:42] <michael> how can i download all files needed to instal xserver-xorg-video-intel-2.4, without using synaptic?
[05:42] <Billiard> Arkade: yes it can, there is a guide somewhere...
[05:42] <grendal_prime> grrr this is the most frustrating thing i have every experienced
[05:43] <michael> anyone know how i can download a package from synaptic without installing?
[05:43] <grendal_prime> i need a package called mono.
[05:43] <grendal_prime> just that just mono.
[05:43] <michael> so i can install on another offline machine?
[05:43] <scunizi> Brandon: screen is a terminal tty multiplexer.. it allows you to be in one terminal but create "virtual" terminals within the one you're in.. very cool..
[05:43] <Arkade> ok thanks
[05:43] <scunizi> !screen | Brandon
[05:43] <pharmer> anyone know if i is same to download torrents on ubuntu?
[05:43] <Alan502> Any download accelerator besides Flashgot and Kget that runs on linux?
[05:43] <michael> or, can someone help me fix eth0 or wlan0 from shell?  :) :)
[05:44] <cn28h> michael, does your wlan use encryption?
[05:44] <dtownhero> Samual-Ubuntu: looking now
[05:44] <Brandon> scunizi, i'm not finding the player package
[05:44] <Billiard> machael fix?
[05:44] <Billiard> michael ^
[05:44] <scunizi> Brandon: which version of ubuntu?
[05:44] <michael> cn28h, actually eth0 would be better, i just unplugged the wireless, but i can plug it back in
[05:44] <Brandon> scunizi: 9.10
[05:44] <michael> cn28h, wlan was just used for 'sharing' my neighbours as a test ;)
[05:44] <grendal_prime> michael eth0 from shell. would be pretty much a no brainer
[05:44] <Billiard> how do you unplug wireless michael
[05:44] <dtownhero> Samual-Ubuntu: you win line count of xorg.conf
[05:44] <michael> cn28h, normal i use wired
[05:44] <dtownhero> 164 lines
[05:44] <cheeko> where can i download updates for ubuntu &*kubuntu i have no access to internet thru ubuntu
[05:44] <dtownhero> man
[05:45] <michael> grendal_prime, seems to not be working for me tho :(
[05:45] <grendal_prime> is the dev actually there?
[05:45] <lordblaa> hey guys is flash only-sort-of-broken for everyone as of last couple of versions? i can't get e.g. any megauploads to play.. sometimes my clicks don't seem to register
[05:45] <michael> Billiard, it's an alfa USB wireless
[05:45] <grendal_prime> have you tried eth1?
[05:45] <El_Peke> hola
[05:45] <El_Peke> :D
[05:45] <Samual-Ubuntu> dtownhero, i've seen one that was 300+ lines before.... But to be fair it had lots of random options which actually are nearly irrelevant to an Xserver
[05:45] <pharmer> does anyone know if it is safe to download torrents on ubuntu?
[05:45] <El_Peke> algien q hable español
[05:45] <Osagasu> I wI switch I dfsdfadsfadsfas
[05:45] <bazhang> !es | El_Peke
[05:45] <Osagasu> Oops
[05:45] <grendal_prime> pharmer: thats a really strange question
[05:45] <Osagasu> Sorry.
[05:45] <Billiard> pharmer it is safe to download them, not always save to use the files you download
[05:45] <scunizi> Brandon: I'm not either.. weird..
[05:46] <dtownhero> Samual-Ubuntu: don't matter tho man I told you have probs with my like 52 line xorg for dual mon
[05:46] <michael> grendal_prime, no device
[05:46] <michael> grendal_prime, i used ifconfig eth0 up to turn it 'on'
[05:46] <dtownhero> that is completely compiled by you
[05:46] <grendal_prime> hmmm
[05:46] <Brandon> pharmer: ABSOLUTELY! It's not as susceptible to many viruses out there.
[05:46] <Samual-Ubuntu> Heh well, i'ma go troubleshoot then........ Who knows, maybe i'll break yet another thing
[05:46] <grendal_prime> michael this isnt a vm box is it...? its a physical box right?
[05:46] <Samual-Ubuntu> Cya
[05:46] <dtownhero> Samual-Ubuntu: meet me in here tomorrow to help me get compiz working on my card
[05:46] <Samual-Ubuntu> Oh?
[05:46] <pharmer> i mean on windows, they always seemed to screw up my system, i'm just wondering if i should expect the same on ubuntu
[05:46] <ash_> hi, is there a howto guide for wireless PCI cards? the light is on but network manager can't see it
[05:47] <Samual-Ubuntu> What time UTC? :)
[05:47] <dtownhero> at work
[05:47] <dtownhero> :p
[05:47] <Brandon> scunizi if you could find a repo for me I'd greatly appreciate it.
[05:47] <Samual-Ubuntu> Oh :P
[05:47] <pharmer> Brandon: thanks
[05:47] <Brandon> pharmer: no worries man it's completely safe
[05:47] <dtownhero> uh I'll be on at 8:00 AM MST
[05:47] <scunizi> Brandon: hang on.. looking
[05:47] <dtownhero> Samual-Ubuntu: you're over the pond eh?
[05:47] <Samual-Ubuntu> But well, i'd be glad to help --- Do you have AIM?
[05:47] <losha> pharmer: less susceptible to viruses, just as likely to end up with a copyright complaint...
[05:47] <grendal_prime> pharmer: well your not going to download a w32 virus or malware that will easyly run on your sistem if thats what your asking
[05:47] <Samual-Ubuntu> Well, I prefer to ask in UTC -- This way i'm able to quickly figure out what time it is for me
[05:47] <michael> grendal_prime, nope, here's my situation.  Dual boot with windows.  eth0 worked fine in gnome, but i uninstalled my vid cards so can only get shell ... now can't ping anything or d/l the video package b/c inet isn't working for some reason
[05:48] <michael> grendal_prime, windows, ubuntu live cd, and previous gnome worked all fine for 2 yrs
[05:48] <cheeko> guys please tell me where can i download pakages or updates for ubuntu
[05:48] <lordblaa> noone else having flash problems?
[05:48] <mine> where do  the .deb  package  download
[05:48] <dtownhero> Samual-Ubuntu: I sent you my aim addy I have no idea what UTC time is with converson
[05:48] <grendal_prime> ok michael first...sudo -s
[05:48] <michael> grendal_prime, i think it's just not 'configured' in shell, but i could be wrong
[05:48] <grendal_prime> then your passwd
[05:48] <michael> grendal_prime, doesn't ask for pw :(
[05:48] <Billiard> cheeko packages.ubuntu.com
[05:48] <grendal_prime> then just try this first ifup eth0
[05:48] <Paddy_NI> !update | cheeko
[05:49] <clueless2> hello people..
[05:49] <michael> grendal_prime, maybe there's a bigger error ... hmm ... sudo or sudo su doesn't ask for pw ... or no pw when loggin on
[05:49] <losha> mine: /var/cache/apt/archives
[05:49] <clueless2> just made a mistaking using Terminal ... by Deleting files
[05:49] <michael> whats command to restart from shell?
[05:49] <mine> can i use it in another machine
[05:49] <clueless2> is there a way I can undelete/recover them?
[05:49] <perith> in an online security page it says to disable ssh root login. what does that mean?
[05:49] <cheeko> Paddy_NI: but have restriced access to net thru ubuntu but i have access to windows
[05:49] <maco> michael: there's a timeout for sudo
[05:49] <maco> michael: if you've done it recently it wont ask for the password
[05:49] <grendal_prime> michael reboot
[05:49] <scunizi> Brandon: found it on vmware's site.. it even mentions it works on 9.10 .. you have to register to get the download though.. https://www.vmware.com/tryvmware/?p=player&lp=1
[05:50] <clueless2> i use this command line   rm des* .jpg xa*
[05:50] <michael> maco, still nothing :(
[05:50] <grendal_prime> ya what maco says
[05:50] <maco> michael: sudo -k
[05:50] <michael> maco, never once tho
[05:50] <Billiard> clueless2: ok? and what did you expect it to do
[05:50] <michael> restart: missing job name ??
[05:50] <Paddy_NI> cheeko, this is exactly what you need http://keryxproject.org/
[05:50] <Brandon> scunizi: I knew that, but to get it on my livecd...
[05:50] <Billiard> michael reboot
[05:50] <maco> michael: "sudo reboot"
[05:50] <grendal_prime> anyway michael firs just tryn this "ifup eth0"
[05:50] <Brandon> scunizi: I'm a complete linux newb..=/
[05:50] <michael> maco, sudo -k reponds with nothing
[05:50] <Paddy_NI> cheeko, all the other advice you are getting is to vague.. use Keryx
[05:50] <grendal_prime> report error if there is one
[05:50] <purvesh> hey ubuntu 9.04 is better or ubuntu 9.10 ?    ,purvesh
[05:50] <michael> Billiard, haha ah
[05:50] <clueless2> Billiard .... was trying to read the book on how to "split" the file (in this case *.mov file)
[05:50] <michael> grendal_prime, k
[05:50] <maco> michael: after "sudo -k" if you sudo doese it ask for a password
[05:50] <maco> michael: "sudo -k" ends the current sudo timeout
[05:51] <clueless2> and it split into 6 or 7 different files using xa* and so far
[05:51] <michael> grendal_prime, ignoring unknon interface etho0=eth0
[05:51] <Billiard> clueless2: why did you rm them then?
[05:51] <grendal_prime> right
[05:51] <scunizi> Brandon: and you're attempting the harder stuff.. if you have enough ram you should be able to download and install in the livecd boot.
[05:51] <michael> maco, nope :(
[05:51] <grendal_prime> ok now this on one line with an enter after it...
[05:51] <losha> perith: it means that if you have a root password, make sure no-one can login as root over ssh even if they guess the password
[05:51] <rish> how to configure my usb internet data card on virtualbox? I'm trying to run the chrome OS
[05:51] <clueless2> Billiard b/c I wanted to get rid of it.  Basically .. was trying to learn Linux/Unix commands
[05:51] <grendal_prime> nano /etc/network/interfaces
[05:51] <Brandon> scunizi: but it has to be part of it
[05:51] <clueless2> by experimenting it
[05:51] <Paddy_NI> cheeko, Here is the tutorial it is very simple to follow http://crashsystems.net/2009/01/keryx-tutorial/
[05:51] <scunizi> Brandon: so.. if it's installed isn't it part of it?
[05:52] <genii> grendal_prime: Might need sudo with that if you want to save the changes
[05:52] <cheeko> Paddy_NI: thnx man
[05:52] <michael> grendal_prime, hmm ,k
[05:52] <Paddy_NI> cheeko, no problem.. keryx is a life saver :)
[05:52] <grendal_prime> nano = easy editor. the file is the config file for your interfaces that come up on boot.  sounds like you are familiar with network manager wich only runs in usner space.
[05:52] <cheeko> Paddy_NI: thts true i can see tht
[05:53] <Brandon> scunizi: if I installed it after booting from the live cd, it doesn't meet my requirements.
[05:53] <grendal_prime> genii if you use sudo -s it holds onto the sudo.
[05:53] <clueless2> Billiard .. i guess I'm screwed right?
[05:53] <grendal_prime> genii...it makes you root basically
[05:53] <ash_> how to lspci and search for pci wireless card?
[05:53] <genii> grendal_prime: I see now in backscroll they should be in interactive sudo, yes
[05:53] <Billiard> clueless2: run the command "apt-cache search undelete"  there are some programs you can try
[05:53] <scunizi> Brandon: this might be an issue that the folks over at #vmware might have an answer to..
[05:53] <clueless2> i see
[05:53] <clueless2> let me do that
[05:54] <rish> how to configure my usb internet data card on virtualbox? I'm trying to run the chrome OS
[05:54] <michael> grendal_prime, what after?  im in nano no
[05:54] <michael> grendal_prime, now*
[05:54] <grendal_prime> ok and viewing the /etc/network/interfaces file correct?
[05:54] <clueless2> it gives me nothing .. it takes me to the prompt ..
[05:54] <grendal_prime> anything in it now?
[05:54] <clueless2> i'm still clueless to Unix/Linux .. still learning
[05:54] <clueless2> beinnger myself
[05:54] <michael> grendal_prime, auto lo
[05:55] <michael> grendal_prime, iface lo inet loopback
[05:55] <grendal_prime> ok after all that you are going to put something like this in.
[05:55] <grendal_prime> iface eth2 inet static
[05:55] <grendal_prime> address <IP_ADDRESS>
[05:55] <grendal_prime> netmask <IP_ADDRESS>
[05:55] <FloodBot2> grendal_prime: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[05:55] <scunizi> Brandon: also ##linux might be a resource
[05:55] <grendal_prime> change the eht2 to eth0 and set the ip's according to your network
[05:55] <perith> losha: /etc/ssh/sshd_config is blank, should i bother making the file and adding that line?
[05:55] <BigBlackDick> goot flooding
[05:56] <Billiard> clueless2: goto the sources list, and check the universe and multiverse boxes
[05:56] <grendal_prime> oh or something easyer, is it...umm on a network that has dhcp?
[05:56] <clueless2> Billiard .. k .. hold on
[05:56] <michael> grendal_prime, i dunno :(
[05:56] <michael> grendal_prime, straight plugged to modem
[05:57] <BigBlackDick> look at me
[05:57] <nic3> HOw can i copy contents across files in vi?
[05:57] <grendal_prime> If it usually gets its ip address from some sort of....ahh ok probably it would be better to just try one line like this.   "iface eth0 inet dhcp" at the bottom of what is there.
[05:57] <michael> anyone know how i can download a package thats in synaptic, but not install it?
[05:57] <clueless2> Billiard ..where is the "source" list again .. i'm using Ubunto 9.10
[05:57] <grendal_prime> or is it "auto" instead of dhcp?
[05:57] <grendal_prime> cant remember hold on
[05:57] <perith> michael: why?
[05:58] <michael> perith, install on an offline machine
[05:58] <Billiard> michael packages.ubuntu.com ,   there is probably a command also, dont know it off hand
[05:58] <grendal_prime> prety sure its dhcp.
[05:58] <grendal_prime> so if you use the dhcp line you dont need the address or the netmask after that.
[05:58] <michael> grendal_prime, im gonna just try to get the package on there and install that ay
[05:58] <Billiard> clueless2: sorry not exactly sure, somewhere in the menu
[05:58] <grendal_prime> what?
[05:58] <grendal_prime> what package?
[05:58] <michael> grendal_prime, cause i think my issue might be more than just inet ... i was never asked for sudo PW EVER in this session ... so something might be broke
[05:58] <michael> grendal_prime, video driver
[05:59] <clueless2> where is or what is the source the list
[05:59] <grendal_prime> dude
[05:59] <BigBlackDick> i am the BigBlackDick
[05:59] <grendal_prime> you are two words from being done with this
[05:59] <clueless2> is that the  Synoptic Package Manager
[05:59] <lstarnes> clueless2: /etc/apt/sources.list
[05:59] <grendal_prime> did you get that one line in ...
[05:59] <clueless2> Billiard is that the  Synoptic Package Manager?
[05:59] <clueless2> oh i see
[05:59] <lstarnes> clueless2: also, try System > Administration > Software Sources
[06:00] <perith> question: /etc/ssh/sshd_config is blank, should i bother making the file and adding "PermitRootLogin no"?
[06:00] <Rajasun> michael: Using aptitude (commandline), issue this: sudo aptitude download packagename
[06:00] <Tapout2> how can I enable hdmi output on ubuntu
[06:00] <lstarnes> clueless2: to edit it, press alt+f2 then enter gksudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list
[06:00] <michael> grendal_prime, i kinda got lost ... sorry :(  i asn't sure after you said 'easier method'
[06:00]  * jozefk np: Underworld - Cowgirl (1992-2002 [Limited Edition] Disc 2)
[06:00] <michael> sec, i'll be in a minute
[06:00] <grendal_prime> Rajasun: that should work great since he has no network connection.    "iface eth0 inet dhcp"
[06:00] <lstarnes> perith: is openssh-server installed?
[06:00] <michael> grendal_prime, i copied your instructions to notepad :)
[06:00] <Billiard> lstarnes: he shouldnt need to manually edit it
[06:00] <grendal_prime> notepad?
[06:01] <grendal_prime> just add this to the botom of the interfaces file
[06:01] <hackel> How can I hide my username and just show an icon in karmic's indicator-applet-session like I did in jaunty?
[06:01] <bazhang> jozefk, disable that script
[06:01] <grendal_prime> "iface eth0 inet dhcp"
[06:01] <clueless2> lstarness ..i'm there..
[06:01] <perith> billiard: lstarnes: only if it came w/ the default install of 9.10
[06:01] <clueless2> lstarness  .. i'm there now
[06:01] <lstarnes> perith: the desktop edition?
[06:01] <grendal_prime> then to save in nano hold crtl key and press x..it will ask if you want to save changes... you hit Y key and enter
[06:01] <grendal_prime> then enter one more time
[06:01] <perith> lstarnes: uh, donno?
[06:01] <grendal_prime> then type ifup eth0
[06:02] <lstarnes> perith: did you install from a live cd with desktop applications on it?
[06:02] <[SilverFox]> so whats better ati or nvidia in linux? from the sounds of it nvidia by far? but how far since I have a ATI 4890 and a Nvidia 9800GX2 so the new ATI one replaced the Nvidia one by far in windows but I really don't know most applications in linux even native to it I get almost half less fps and they are opengl.
[06:02] <lstarnes> clueless2: I think what you wanted was System > Administration > Software Sources
[06:02] <clueless2> i'm there
[06:02] <perith> lstarnes: no, i downloaded iso  from ubuntu and burned it and installed from that
[06:02] <clueless2> or here
[06:02] <grendal_prime> [SilverFox]: nvidia
[06:02] <grendal_prime> hands down.
[06:02] <clueless2> in the Software sources
[06:02] <jozefk> bazhang: that was manually added :P
[06:02] <Billiard> clueless2: check the multiverse and universe boxes
[06:02] <clueless2> what do I do next
[06:02] <lstarnes> perith: did you have a desktop environment when you installed it?
[06:03] <[SilverFox]> how hard would it be to install my old video card? without ruining the os :p
[06:03] <bazhang> jozefk, please dont do it in here, just adds to the noise
[06:03] <perith> lstarnes: i believe so. it came w/ a top and bottom panel and GNOME
[06:03] <jozefk> ok. sure.
[06:03] <lstarnes> perith: then you have the desktop edition
[06:03] <Frozen-Solid> what should i use for ripping high quality mp3s on ubuntu? i'm used to using grip, but it seems that doesn't exist anymore
[06:03] <clueless2> Billiard and lstarness .. all of them have been checked
[06:03] <lstarnes> perith: which does not include openssh-server by default
[06:03] <lstarnes> clueless2: now close it
[06:03] <clueless2> i mean already CHECKED
[06:03] <Billiard> clueless2: they were already checked? ok close it
[06:04] <clueless2> Billiard .. .they are already CHECKED
[06:04] <perith> lstarnes: the top/bottom panel are the same as GNOME, huh? thanks for the feedback and patience btw :)
[06:04] <Ben64> Frozen-Solid: why not ogg?
[06:04] <grendal_prime> michael you still here?
[06:04] <Billiard> clueless2: run this command ...    sudo apt-get update
[06:04] <lstarnes> perith: the desktop environment itself is gnome
[06:04] <Frozen-Solid> because my car and my iphone don't support ogg
[06:04] <Pertheusual> hey all, weird problem. I rebooted my computer yesterday, and now all my windows have gone all old looking, and my icons look terrible. this is a GTK error I guess??

[06:05] <FloodBot2> clueless2: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[06:05] <michael> grendal_prime, yeah, let me get back into ubuntu ... needed to get on windows for a friend
[06:05] <lstarnes> Orion777: it's ~/.mozilla, not ~ /.mozilla
[06:05] <konan> what?
[06:05] <maco> clueless2: cant use apt-get while synaptic's open
[06:05] <konan> bot

[06:05] <Orion777> k, someone in kubuntu recommended it the second way
[06:06] <michael> grendal_prime, but when i load ubuntu, it goes straight to shell without asking for sudo PW, you dont think thats a problem?
[06:06] <grendal_prime> your interface come up
[06:06] <bazhang> konan, what?
[06:06] <clueless2> W: GPG error: http://parker1.co.uk feisty Release: The following signatures couldn't be verified because the public key is not available: NO_PUBKEY 6D17A3829B1DB022

[06:06] <konan> sorry
[06:06] <clueless2> this is what I got
[06:06] <grendal_prime> could be..
[06:06] <michael> grendal_prime, NO WAIT, i see it ...
[06:06] <lstarnes> clueless2: you will need to download and install that key
[06:06] <grendal_prime> sounds like maybe running in single user mode?
[06:06] <Orion777> and it broke my system, how do I repair grub?
[06:06] <Billiard> Alan502: could try ctrl+h
[06:06] <michael> grendal_prime, "mount of filesystem failed"  that's no good
[06:06] <clueless2> anyway.. it updated something and told me to restart/reboot but I didn't want to
[06:06] <Alan502> Billiard, nope
[06:06] <perith> is grsecurity a must have?
[06:06] <michael> grendal_prime, its doing a filesystem check ... i'll let it run
[06:06] <grendal_prime> ya sound like you are in single user mode.  some sort of recovery mode
[06:06] <clueless2> which key are you referring to?
[06:07] <cheeko> any software specifically like bluesolel for blutooth in ubunto
[06:07] <clueless2> multivers right?
[06:07] <lstarnes> clueless2: the one at the end of that message
[06:07] <Billiard> clueless2: try that search command i gave you before again, you can just hit the up arrow to see your command history
[06:07] <lstarnes> clueless2: which version of ubuntu are you using?
[06:08] <clueless2> Billiard but it takes me back to the prompt  with no error message
[06:08] <Billiard> clueless2: when you ran it again?
[06:08] <clueless2> let me use the "uname" at least I found that part .. lstarness
[06:08] <clueless2> Ubunto 9.10
[06:08] <mine> can we use a livecd   .iso to install ubuntu to usb disk  in ubuntu
[06:09] <clueless2> Billiard .. just ran about 1 minute ago or less
[06:09] <Billiard> mine you can install to a usb disk yeah
[06:09] <bittin> What is the Difference between Ubuntu and Fedora?
[06:09] <Billiard> clueless2: after apt-get update?
[06:09] <clueless2> yes
[06:09] <lstarnes> bittin: they're different distributions of linux
[06:09] <mine> when i have a iso  and now i in ubuntu
[06:09] <hackel> How can I hide my username and just show an icon in karmic's indicator-applet-session like I did in jaunty?
[06:09] <mine> how
[06:09] <Billiard> bittin: different package manager different lots of stuff
[06:09] <perith> is grsecurity useful? what's the diff btw grsecurity and gradm2? synaptic only has gradm2.
[06:09] <lstarnes> clueless2: why is there a source entry for a repository from feisty (7.04) in your sources list?
[06:10]  * bittin is thinking if i should run Lubuntu och Fedora LXDE on an old laptop
[06:10] <clueless2> i have no idea what you're talking lstarness ..
[06:10] <cheeko> Paddy_NI: how can i play windows games on ubuntu i have tried wine is ther any thing better then tht?
[06:10] <clueless2> i'm not sure what you're referring to lstarness
[06:10] <lstarnes> clueless2: you might want to go back to the Software Sources app, go to the "Third-Party Software" tab, and uncheck the one mentioning http://parker1.co.uk
[06:11] <clueless2> k
[06:11] <lstarnes> clueless2: it's from the error that you posted earlier
[06:11] <MoeGreen> does anybody here use UNIX?
[06:11] <lstarnes> MoeGreen: which unix>
[06:11] <clueless2> lstarness .. okay those two are UNCHECKED now ..
[06:11] <lstarnes> MoeGreen: there are several unix-like operating systems
[06:11] <jozefk> bittin: lubuntu for sure :)
[06:12] <Billiard> MoeGreen: i dont think many people use "unix"
[06:12] <clueless2> should I closed now ?
[06:12] <daredevilthere> I want to configure pan but i dont have /etc/default/bluetooth file?
[06:12] <lstarnes> clueless2: yes
[06:12] <clueless2> it's doing something
[06:12] <bittin> i already use Debian so maybe i should try Fedora as iam not a newbie
[06:12] <clueless2> it's done
[06:12] <clueless2> lstarness ..now what's the next step?
[06:13] <MoeGreen> Really not a UNIX question per say. i was just wondering if there was a way i can get the windows appearnce of unix for my ubuntu version.  I remember using UNIX as a kid and liking the X in the top right but with a just a dot and square i think to max and min.
[06:13] <squidbilly> Hmm.. Un-technical question...  I saw a video of someone with a script that looked to be running the Google Earth wallpaper on Ubuntu.. anyone know what that might have been?
[06:13] <jozefk> i just didn't like fedora. it's not too bad but they are puting sometimes some stuff not working good
[06:13] <clueless2> i just did try to apt-get update .. it gives me no error this time
[06:13] <bittin> MoeGreen: xdm?
[06:13] <lstarnes> MoeGreen: it depends on which window manager it was running
[06:13] <MoeGreen> no rounded corners or anything..lol
[06:13] <bodi> ?
[06:13] <lstarnes> MoeGreen: it might have been twm or mwm
[06:14] <R1_> dtownhero, u there?
[06:14] <MoeGreen> do those come with ubuntu or should i look on gnomelook or something?
[06:14] <daredevilthere> where is the bluetooth confuguration files
[06:14] <lstarnes> MoeGreen: you can get them through the package manager
[06:14] <jozefk> linux is matter of taste and requirements
[06:14] <MoeGreen> cool thanks guys
[06:15] <bodi> Hello all I have a ? need help
[06:15] <jozefk> ok
[06:15] <clueless2> lstarness & Billiard .. still out there?
[06:15] <lstarnes> clueless2: yes

[06:16] <amikrop> lstarnes: 3.5.5
[06:16] <lstarnes> amikrop: what happens for you?
[06:17] <amikrop> and them close the Preferences box
[06:17] <amikrop> and open it again
[06:17] <meowbuntu> mine fdesktop looks like a typo
[06:17] <amikrop> and see if the change was remembered
[06:17] <amikrop> lstarnes: what I described. it doesn't get remembered :S
[06:17] <bodi> I loaded backtrack dual boot everything went well but when i rebooted to fix-splash i get an error can not create directory access denied
[06:17] <mine> what does it used for
[06:17] <meowbuntu> mine, f and d are next to eachother on k'board
[06:17] <cheeko> guys please how can i play windows games in ubuntu
[06:18] <lstarnes> amikrop: I had it set to use custom settings and changed it to remember everything, but it didn't remember it
[06:18] <lstarnes> amikrop: file a bug report
[06:18] <jozefk> in my ubuntu 9.10 the keyboard shortcuts for terminal are different than i use to have with some other distro and KDE
[06:18] <leaf-sheep> cheeko: Wine, VirtualBox, or DualBoot.
[06:18] <Billiard> cheeko you can use wine, not all windows programs run perfectly check the wine appdb
[06:18] <lstarnes> amikrop: I'll add a comment saying that I had the same issue
[06:18] <R1_> Does anybody have Windows 7 here and is currently able to remote desktop from ubuntu to windows 7???
[06:18] <meowbuntu> cheeko, have you installed wine
[06:18] <khaladu_kj> does anyone have solution for my problem??
[06:18] <jozefk> Ctrl+Shift+N should be new tab but it's not
[06:18] <cheeko> meowbuntu: yes
[06:18] <jozefk> it's new window
[06:18] <cheeko> but not useful
[06:19] <lstarnes> khaladu_kj: what output do you get from the command uname -m ?
[06:19] <Billiard> cheeko: not useful?
[06:19] <jozefk> and Shift+Left Shift+Right doesn't move from one to another Tab
[06:19] <Billiard> khaladu_kj: you are running a 32 bit operating system?
[06:19] <cheeko> Billiard: yes games dont work fine
[06:19] <amikrop> lstarnes: OK
[06:19] <khaladu_kj> lstarnes: i686
[06:19] <jozefk> how can I change that shortcuts?
[06:20] <bodi> can someone help with this
[06:20] <khaladu_kj> Billiard: yes
[06:20] <lstarnes> khaladu_kj: you have the 32-bit version
[06:20] <Billiard> khaladu_kj: there is a max ram limit, and that is it
[06:20] <cheeko> Billiard: any other
[06:20] <lstarnes> khaladu_kj: you should probbaly install the 64-bit (amd64) version of ubuntu
[06:20] <mine> is that wubi only can be runned in windows
[06:20] <khaladu_kj> lstarnes, Billiard: i thought its 4 gb for 32 bit os!
[06:20] <lstarnes> khaladu_kj: it might be less
[06:20] <Billiard> cheeko: virtualbox, but you wont get good video performance, you could try the wine beta repository also, i found it works better
[06:20] <Draake> how come when i change the /etc/motd .. it is auto changed right back to what it was?
[06:21] <lstarnes> Draake: edit /etc/motd.tail
[06:21] <Draake> ahhh
[06:21] <khaladu_kj> I will try 64 bit ubuntu .. then
[06:21] <khaladu_kj> thanx .. :)
[06:21] <chemjeff> Hi all, I would like to swap two partitions on my hard drive, the /opt and the /tmp partitions, how can I do that?
[06:21] <Billiard> khaladu_kj: its its 4GB minus some because it needs some of the address space for other stuff
[06:21] <lstarnes> amikrop: once you file it, give me a link to it
[06:21] <leaf-sheep> khaladu_kj: You could install the server kernel.  That would works too.
[06:21] <amikrop> lstarnes: sure
[06:22] <amikrop> lstarnes: hmm, some developer told me not to file a bug report
[06:22] <Billiard> khaladu_kj: yea you could try the pae kernel, but if you have a 64 bit cpu i would use 64 bit os
[06:22] <meowbuntu> cheeko, wine can only run simple windows apps. there is another emulator (cant remember the name) but i think you have to pay for it
[06:22] <meowbuntu> ^ hold on
[06:22] <cheeko> Billiard: wht leaf-sheep was telling abt dual boot
[06:22] <greezmunkey> man this OS rocks, I didn't even _need_ to install a swap partition!
[06:22] <nikhil_> meowbuntu: cedega
[06:22] <IdleOne> meowbuntu: cedega
[06:22] <Billiard> cheeko: installing windows on another partition
[06:22] <amikrop> lstarnes: I will keep you up to date
[06:22] <nikhil_> IdleOne: ;)
[06:23] <khaladu_kj> leaf-sheep: what will server kernel do..?
[06:23] <leaf-sheep> cheeko: When you start up the computer, you have the option to start Ubuntu or to start Windows 7.  That's dual boot.
[06:23] <Billiard> khaladu_kj: server kernel has pae, its like a hack to use more ram
[06:23] <Draake> how do i take off "0 packages can be updated" ...... etc as well on the MOTD?
[06:24] <meowbuntu> cheeko, take a look at cedega http://linux.about.com/gi/o.htm?zi=1/XJ&zTi=1&sdn=linux&cdn=compute&tm=13&f=00&su=p284.9.336.ip_p504.1.336.ip_&tt=2&bt=1&bts=1&zu=https%3A//wiki.ubuntu.com/Cedega
[06:24] <cheeko> leaf-sheep: got it
[06:24] <lstarnes> khaladu_kj: the server kernel has some options tailored for use in webservers
[06:24] <meowbuntu> cheeko, what game you looking to play
[06:24] <lstarnes> khaladu_kj: for some things, like many desktop applications, there may be decreases in performance
[06:24] <cheeko> transfromers
[06:24] <mine> what is the difference between  ubuntu-desktop and ubuntu-dvd
[06:24] <meowbuntu> cheeko, the latest game
[06:25] <khaladu_kj> Billiard: that seems ideal ...  but .. it wont affect..  any other functionality right?
[06:25] <lstarnes> khaladu_kj: however, server applications will have better performance
[06:25] <cheeko> so wud it work
[06:25] <chemjeff> Hi all, I would like to swap two partitions on my hard drive, the /opt and the /tmp partitions, how can I do that?
[06:25] <cheeko> meowbuntu: and wht abt virtualbox
[06:25] <lstarnes> cheeko: change their mount points in /etc/fstab
[06:25] <leaf-sheep> khaladu_kj: http://tinyurl.com/8k4run and http://tinyurl.com/yee6r4w -- Using native amd64 would be the better solution but if you don't want to reinstall and go amd64 at the moment, then use server pae kernel.
[06:25] <lstarnes> cheeko: virtualbox requires you to install windows in it
[06:26] <chemjeff> lstarnes, I did that but then when I rebooted I got Gnome configuration file errors
[06:26] <meowbuntu> cheeko, not sure. wine is a long shot. for latest games. try the link to cedega i posted ^
[06:26] <khaladu_kj> leaf-sheep : im using core2duo
[06:26] <cheeko> lstarnes: but tht wud make botht os slow
[06:26] <Draake> Speaking of emulators.. what would be best for "WoW"?
[06:26] <leaf-sheep> mine: Multiple languages in Ubuntu DVD.
[06:26] <lstarnes> cheeko: not necessarily
[06:26] <Billiard> chemjeff: do have have data on them?
[06:26] <lstarnes> cheeko: virtualbox is usually very fast
[06:26] <chemjeff> Billiard, there's no data on the /opt partition, and no permanent data on the /tmp partition
[06:26] <khaladu_kj> leaf-sheep: i doubt amd64 will work on core2duo .. fine.. will it?
[06:26] <meowbuntu> cheeko, you need minimum of 1 gig 2 prefered for vbox
[06:27] <chemjeff> Billiard, just whatever is used for the current session
[06:27] <cheeko> lstarnes: but i have very less ram thts the prob
[06:27] <lstarnes> khaladu_kj: it will
[06:27] <Billiard> chemjeff: just swap the fstab mount mounts
[06:27] <Billiard> mount ponts*
[06:27] <lstarnes> khaladu_kj: it will work on most 64-bit intel-like processirs
[06:27] <Billiard> points* jeeze sorry
[06:27] <chemjeff> Billiard, I did that but I get Gnome configuration file errors
[06:27] <leaf-sheep> khaladu_kj: That is fine. If your computer have 64bit processor, then it should work.  This will be useful if you're doing heavy processing like DVD encoding or video editting or audio editting, etc.
[06:27] <chemjeff> Billiard, when I restart
[06:27] <meowbuntu> cheeko, do you have a copy of windows handy
[06:27] <Billiard> chemjeff: errors?
[06:27] <leaf-sheep> khaladu_kj: Take the advantage of your hardware. ;)
[06:27] <cheeko> meowbuntu: yes
[06:28] <khaladu_kj> lstranes: cool...  yea..  makes sense
[06:28] <chemjeff> Billiard, yes - I couldn't log in to a Gnome session
[06:28] <khaladu_kj> leaf-sheep: agreed.. :D
[06:28] <Billiard> Draake: wow runs well in wine
[06:28] <Billiard> chemjeff: what was the error
[06:28] <Alan502> Does anyone recommend a download manager other than flash got or Kget for kubuntu?
[06:28] <meowbuntu> cheeko, then look up how to dual boot windows(xp/vista) and ubuntu 9.10
[06:28] <Draake> Billiard, i tried wine  1.2 and it wouldn't complete the installation it downloaded up to 95% and froze.. boy was i mad!
[06:29] <chemjeff> Billiard, I don't remember precisely, but I know it said that something failed a sanity check and exited with error 256
[06:29] <Billiard> Draake: you added the wine beta repository?
[06:29] <Draake> i let the package install everything.. it was like 7 packages
[06:29] <Billiard> chemjeff: and putting the partitions back removes the error?
[06:29] <chemjeff> Billiard, yes
[06:29] <Billiard> Draake: try adding the wine beta repository
[06:29] <cheeko> meowbuntu: wen i keep windows as host orerating system ubuntu gives aprob
[06:30] <cheeko> meowbuntu: init too long
[06:30] <Billiard> Draake: also the message of the day is setup using files in /etc/update-motd.d  if you still were wondering
[06:30] <Draake> Billiard,  i let the package install everything.. it was like 7 packages
[06:30] <mine> when i make a usb bootable disk  it remind chucksums...what is wrong with it
[06:30] <Draake> Billiard, thanks.
[06:30] <meowbuntu> thats your best best.for playing games like transformers. install windows (legal copy) first then ubuntu then add windows info to ubuntu grub. thats about the basics. google is your friend
[06:30] <meowbuntu> ^ cheeko
[06:30] <DigitalBrowser> I am using 9.10. My xorg.conf file does not have much in there and when I start up it says Ubuntu is running in low graphics mode. Can someone help please?
[06:31] <Billiard> mine "it remind chucksums"
[06:31] <Billiard> mine what?
[06:31] <leaf-sheep> meowbuntu: Bing is my friend. :)
[06:31] <meowbuntu> cheeko, did you get that
[06:31] <Billiard> DigitalBrowser: what type of gfx card?
[06:31] <meowbuntu> leaf-sheep, bing ??????? what is that
[06:31] <cheeko> meowbuntu:  yes
[06:31] <DigitalBrowser> ATI X850 Radeon
[06:31] <maco> meowbuntu: microsoft's search engine
[06:32] <Billiard> meowbuntu: search engine, google wannabe
[06:32] <bullgard> [Thunderbird <IP_ADDRESS>] Addressbook > Search > Dropdown list lists as the first two entries 'Name or Email' and 'Category'. The Edit cards do not have a 'Category' field. What does 'Category' correspond to in the Edit card entries?
[06:32] <xim_> ~source
[06:32] <meowbuntu> cheeko, thats about it if you dont have enough rram to run vbox properly.
[06:32] <meowbuntu> leaf-sheep, are you being funny

[06:33] <leaf-sheep> bullgard: I'm guessing "Students" or "Employees" or "Friends" or "Families" would quality as Categories.
[06:33] <cheeko> meowbuntu: dual seems a good bet
[06:33] <meowbuntu> leaf-sheep, this is ubuntu a linux os. bing is microsoft anti linux corperation
[06:33] <erigana> hi all...
[06:33] <bullgard> leaf-sheep: Your answer is wrong.
[06:33] <leaf-sheep> meowbuntu: Not really. Google is very evil now. But that's offtopic here.
[06:34] <Draake> Billiard, when you say repository, what is that?
[06:34] <cheeko> leaf-sheep: not at all
[06:34] <DigitalBrowser> This is what my xorg.conf file looks like:
[06:34] <DigitalBrowser> Section "Screen"
[06:34] <DigitalBrowser> 	Identifier	"Configured Screen Device"

[06:35] <meowbuntu> DigitalBrowser, , dont flood chanel !pastebin
[06:35] <meowbuntu> !pastebin
[06:35] <leaf-sheep> bullgard: Letting you know... Thunderbird 3.0 was released few days ago.
[06:35] <mine> wait i try it  again
[06:36] <meowbuntu> leaf-sheep, can i pm you for a sec
[06:36] <leaf-sheep> meowbuntu: Sure.
[06:37] <mine> leaf-sheep Multiple languages in Ubuntu DVD.  can you say more about it
[06:37] <Draake> DOES ANYONE know how to get a USB external HDD to be mounted?
[06:37] <mine> leaf-sheep :Multiple languages in Ubuntu DVD.  can you say more about it
[06:38] <cheeko> meowbuntu: i just found win4lin
[06:38] <cheeko> so can i apt-get win4lin
[06:39] <Snausages> Draake: I just plug them in and they appear in the file browser
[06:39] <Snausages> Draake: if one didn't, I'd guess that you haven't got filesystem support installed for it
[06:39] <Draake> Snausages, well mine isn't working out that way :(
[06:39] <Zsoci> hi there!is it possible to run ./configure with aptitude?is it any way to install from source to autoinstall dependencies?
[06:39] <Snausages> Draake: is it spinning up?
[06:39] <Billiard> Draake: does it show up in the places menu?
[06:40] <Draake> Snausages, how do i go about getting that installed?
[06:40] <Draake> Billiard, no it sure doesn't
[06:40] <Draake> Snausages, it lights up.. but i can't feel it spinning..
[06:40] <Billiard> cheeko: you wont be able to run games well in win4lin probably, if thats what you are trying to do
[06:40] <mine> what do you mean
[06:40] <Zsoci> i would like to install from source and want to make ./configure easyer.
[06:41] <Draake> Snausages, actually yes it spins
[06:41] <Snausages> Draake: it might be power starved- USB drives are finicky like that.  maybe try it on another port, or on a powered hub
[06:41] <Zsoci> to autoinstall all dependencies
[06:41] <meowbuntu> cheeko, thats another option just remember that windows will not run 100% afficient installed like that. native dual boot is best
[06:41] <Draake> Snausages, Billiard, wow. it worked this time? i swear i been trying for like 3 days
[06:41] <Billiard> Zsoci: apt-get build-dep <package>
[06:41] <Billiard> Draake: cool
[06:42] <mine> sanusages: can i install ubuntu to a usb disk  in ubuntu
[06:42] <bullgard> leaf-sheep: I have haerd that Thunderbird 3.0 has  been released recently. But I do not think that this will solve my question.
[06:42] <mine> not in the livecd
[06:42] <kprav33n> Hello!
[06:42] <bullgard> s/haerd/heard/
[06:42] <Zsoci> what kind of package may I have to type?
[06:43] <mine> i have a iso
[06:43] <Billiard> Zsoci: the package you are trying to build
[06:43] <Snausages> mine: I don't know.  I've only installed ubuntu twice, so I don't remember it well enough.  Have you tried?
[06:43] <kprav33n> I installed Google Chrome from the Google server on my Ubuntu 9.04
[06:43] <kprav33n> I am unable to install extensions on Google Chrome.
[06:43] <kprav33n> If I click install, I get a "Save as" dialog and I am not sure how to install the saved extension.
[06:43] <Billiard> mine already told you you can install ubuntu to a usb device

[06:44] <Draake> ig less free space (the same amount i downloaded)
[06:44] <Billiard> daredevilthere: sorry idk much abotu intel vcards
[06:44] <Alan502> Billiard, i cannot run it because i dont know where to execute it from
[06:45] <Draake> how do i go about finding the WoW stuff
[06:45] <Alan502> Billiard, it is not on my applications menu and i neither i can run it from the command line
[06:45] <daredevilthere> Billiard: How do i find which Driver is ubuntu using
[06:45] <mine> what command
[06:45] <Alan502> Billiard, althought when i run the neatbeans installer again it says it is already installed
[06:45] <Zsoci> i don't think so if it is a packege.I downloaded and extracted the source.now what i have to do is to type ./configure,but it is so frustrating to check manually all the dependencies
[06:45] <Billiard> Draake: it will probabaly install to ~/.wine/drive_c/Program Files
[06:45] <Draake> Billiard, i checked there :-\
[06:45] <Billiard> daredevilthere: sorry idk
[06:46] <Billiard> Zsoci: is it a package that is also available in the package manager?
[06:47] <Billiard> Draake: are your drives setup in the wine config?
[06:47] <Zsoci> nope.it is a tar.gz with the source,to compile and install
[06:47] <mine> billiard: what command
[06:47] <Billiard> Zsoci: what is it?
[06:47] <Billiard> mine what?
[06:48] <mine> not in a livecd
[06:48] <Zsoci> kismet-2009-11-r1
[06:48] <mine> install ubuntu with a iso
[06:48] <Billiard> Zsoci: kismet is in the package manager
[06:48] <Draake> Billiard, yes, the c_drive and the "z_drive" ?
[06:48] <Billiard> Zsoci: afaik
[06:49] <kizzo> How do you make the desktop not display your /home/username directory?
[06:49] <kizzo> GNOME desktop
[06:49] <Billiard> kizzo: i know you can change it using gconf-editor
[06:49] <mine> billiard:install ubuntu with a iso , not in  livecd  and i dont want to reboot
[06:49] <kizzo> Billiard: I'll look at it - thanks.
[06:50] <Billiard> mine um, why
[06:50] <mine> i mean just like a copy  then i can use it in another  without update
[06:50] <bodi> need help
[06:50] <bodi> ?
[06:50] <mine> billiard :do you got it
[06:50] <piojunbabia> !help | bodi
[06:51] <mine> do you got it
[06:51] <Billiard> mine i would think you could extract the squashfs on the cd onto the flash drive then chroot into it and setup the boot loader, but im not 100% sure
[06:51] <Zsoci> didn't found any in the package manager nor in aptitude.then I downloaded a .dep from somewhere,but it is out of date.so got compatibility problems.it is better to install from source the latest version
[06:51] <Billiard> mine or usb disk, if its not a flash drive
[06:51] <Arkade> hi, how do i get 64 bit flash going?
[06:51] <Zsoci> sorry not .dep .deb
[06:51] <Billiard> Arkade: i have no probs
[06:51] <mine> chroot  where
[06:52] <Billiard> Zsoci: add the universe repositorie, then it will be in the package manager
[06:52] <mine> do i need reboot
[06:52] <Billiard> mine to do what?
[06:52] <kizzo> Anyone know where in gconf-editor one would change the option of showing your /home/username directory in the GNOME desktop?
[06:52] <Zsoci> where can I find universe repo?
[06:52] <mine> let try it first
[06:52] <Billiard> kizzo: gnome > desktop maybe, sorry idk
[06:53] <kizzo> It's cool.
[06:53] <Billiard> Zsoci: administration > software sources i think
[06:53] <kizzo> I found it: i believe it's /apps/nautilus/preferences/desktop_is_home_dir
[06:53] <Billiard> kizzo: no that doesnt sound right
[06:54] <kizzo> If set to true, then Nautilus will use the user's home folder as the desktop. If it is false, then it will use ~/Desktop as the desktop
[06:54] <meowbuntu> I am looking for a small, extensive, full featured, powerful media player.
[06:54] <kizzo> ..is the description by it.
[06:54] <Billiard> kizzo: hold on ill load up a live cd, in the same place there is options for all the icons on the desktop
[06:54] <Billiard> kizzo: can you just delete home from your desktop?
[06:54] <Billiard> meowbuntu: maybe you will like vlc
[06:55] <bodi> ok here's what i did i have os windows vista /// ran backtrack 4 setup dual boot //everything went well until reboot i rebooted typed sudo su than fix- spash // than y and y again now just boots up to backtrack no windows
[06:55] <Billiard> bodi: this is ubuntu support
[06:55] <bodi> ok where do i go ?
[06:55] <Rajasun> meowbuntu: https://launchpad.net/~stemp/+archive/xfce
[06:55] <furuno> bodi: #windows ?
[06:56] <Billiard> bodi: backtrack channel?
[06:56] <Ubuntu_user> is there a xubuntu netbook edition?
[06:56] <bodi> no i installed backtrack
[06:56] <meowbuntu> Billiard, vlc is ok i guess. what i am having trouble with is media keeps playing ok for a few minuts then goes funny
[06:56] <furuno> Ubuntu_user: not yet
[06:56] <Billiard> meowbuntu: fuzzy?
[06:56] <Billiard> Ubuntu_user: you can install xfce after you install ubuntu
[06:56] <furuno> Ubuntu_user: if you want lighweight, try installing LXDE as the desktop environment
[06:57] <Fbian> g00dmornig!
[06:57] <furuno> Ubuntu_user: or Openbox
[06:57] <bodi> is there a backtrack channel
[06:57] <jcp> Is there an ubuntu equivalent to Windows's Resource Monitor?
[06:57] <bodi> ?
[06:57] <meowbuntu> Billiard, yea fuzzy, skippy, jumpy or just goes silent and speeds up
[06:57] <Billiard> bodi: i think so
[06:57] <Zsoci> you are right,it is in the repo,but it is out of date what can I get
[06:57] <furuno> jcp: Gnome System Monitor?
[06:57] <furuno> jcp: or various terminal command
[06:57] <leaf-sheep> bodi: #remote-exploit
[06:57] <Zsoci> 2008 and what I need is 2009 :(
[06:58] <jcp> I know about System Monitor. Resource monitor in Windows provides information on hard disk usage too, such as which files are being accessed by which processes and how much data they have read in the past minute or so. I can't find a place in System Monitor that does that.
[06:58] <Finnish> How do I enable H.264-export in Kdenlive
[06:58] <jcp> furuno: ^
[06:58] <Billiard> Zsoci: try the apt-get build-deb if you want what you need to build it yourself
[06:58] <Ubuntu_user> i know i can install xfce, but can i also change the boot up screen?
[06:58] <indus> hi
[06:58] <selvam> hai
[06:58] <bodi> do they have live such as this?
[06:58] <santhosh> hello
[06:58] <Billiard> Ubuntu_user: you should be able to yes
[06:58] <santhosh> how are u man
[06:58] <bazhang> bodi, #remote-exploit for bt
[06:58] <jcp> and I have a program I wrote that is causing the processor's iowait usage (reported by top) to go up to around 95%, but I can't figure out what my program is accessing that would cause it to go up that much
[06:58] <selvam> with your blessing i'm good
[06:59] <alexstre^> I just booted 9.10 from the live cd on an iMac G5 and right after the boot a pop up showed property drivers to install for my wireless to work, which I enabled and everything was fine. I then completed the install and reboot in the "real, installed" ubuntu and the pop up never showed up... Anyone knows how I can enable those drivers manually?
[06:59] <santhosh> dodda math
[06:59] <cheeko> init too long is the message i get it tried installing ubuntu in my pc
[06:59] <Zsoci> nothing happens
[06:59] <Rajasun> Ubuntu_user: As far as I can recall, no. There are netbook remixes/editions for Ubuntu and Kubuntu yes but not that I know of for Xubuntu. Not sure if one is the pipeline either. Check with the folks in #xubuntu perhaps.
[06:59] <Ubuntu_user> alexstre^, Ubuntu works better on regular hardware rather than apple
[06:59] <furuno> jcp: actually you can see open file and memory maps from System Monitor, right click on the process
[06:59] <selvam> amela
[06:59] <meowbuntu> jcp took like 2 sece to find this on google for you. http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=672682
[06:59] <santhosh> nothing
[06:59] <jcp> seriously?
[06:59]  * jcp goes to check
[06:59] <santhosh> how is this chat
[06:59] <Zsoci>  Failed to find libcurses or libncurses.  Install them or disable building the Kismet client with --disable-client.  Disabling the client is probably not something you want to do normally.
[06:59] <selvam> it's ok
[06:59] <Zsoci> when I hit ./configure
[06:59] <bodi> yes i know remote exploit is bt but i dont see live help
[07:00] <bazhang> !ot | selvam santhosh
[07:00] <Billiard> Zsoci: did you try what i suggested?
[07:00] <jcp> meowbuntu: is it possible to tell how much it's read/written to those files?
[07:00] <alexstre^> Ubuntu_user: I know that already. but it works perfectly from the live cd. not so well once it's installed though... which is a bit weird
[07:00] <meowbuntu> jcp, i just googles what you asked "ubuntu equivalent to Windows Resource Monitor"
[07:00] <cheeko> selvam: try some ims
[07:00] <jcp> yeah, I've been doing the same thing
[07:00] <meowbuntu> jcp no idea sorry
[07:00] <jcp> np
[07:00] <jcp> thanks anyway
[07:00] <Ubuntu_user> alexstre^, also no flash
[07:01] <jcp> Actually, one more question. Is it possible to monitor a remote system with Resource Monitor?
[07:01] <meowbuntu> jcp, have you tested crunchbang os
[07:01] <Zsoci> apt-get build-deb and what would be the next command?sorry,I'm a newbie for stuff like this
[07:01] <jcp> I've never heard of ti
[07:01] <jcp> (it
[07:01] <jcp> grr, *it
[07:01] <furuno> jcp: Crunchbang Linux, it ubuntu based with Openbox desktop
[07:02] <meowbuntu> jcp,  ok look into conky
[07:02] <jcp> ah, cool
[07:02] <Billiard> Zsoci: i said   "sudo apt-get build-dep kismet"
[07:02] <meowbuntu> jcp, http://conky.sourceforge.net/
[07:02] <Zsoci> thank you
[07:02] <jcp> yeah, just saw it on Synaptic
[07:02] <jcp> I'll try that and see how it goes
[07:03] <meowbuntu> jcow, conky is a desktop display for displaying system info and other stuff.
[07:03] <Zsoci> E: build-deb illegal command
[07:03] <meowbuntu> ^ jcp
[07:03] <Billiard> kizzo: did you find the setting? i just found it
[07:03] <meowbuntu> jcp, , conky is a desktop display for displaying system info and other stuff.
[07:03] <jcp> ok
[07:03] <lstarnes> Zsoci: build-dep, not build-deb
[07:03] <jcp> yeah, just finished installing. Let's see how it works
[07:04] <justin_> Hey, I need help.

[07:04] <wanted> i am using mathew farewalls emerald theme, but to apply that i want to use emerald -replace, but i have to do this every time i restart my computer.
[07:04] <furuno> jcp: configuring conky can be painful tought... they should use XML or YAML :/
[07:04] <justin_> I just updated to 8.10 and now my wireless doesn't work. I think it is because the network manager is using a device I don'
[07:04] <justin_> t want it to use.

[07:05] <furuno> wanted: in System > Pref > Startup application, add "emerald --replace" entry

Booted up ubuntu and works flawlessly(res 1920x1080) except, i get like "ripples" or "cuts" on my screen when im watching a movie. Any particular reason for this?

[07:08] <bullgard> [Thunderbird <IP_ADDRESS>] Addressbook > Search > 'Dropdown list' lists as the first two entries 'Name or Email' and 'Category'. The Edit cards do not have a 'Category' field. What does 'Category' correspond to in the Edit card entries?
[07:08] <kossan> DarkS7ar: What standard is the wireless running?

[07:10] <meowbuntu> furuno, music
[07:10] <Billiard> huneph_: nautilus
[07:10] <furuno> albert: in terminal, type "sudo apt-get install vlc"
[07:10] <DarkS7ar> kossan: the most insteresting thing is that with some other linux distros it works perfect
[07:10] <huneph_> it says "(nautilus:4700): Eel-CRITICAL **: eel_preferences_get_boolean: assertion `preferences_is_initialized ()' failed
[07:10] <huneph_> "
[07:11] <Billiard> Celroc: idk, you might have to manually add your gentoo
[07:11] <kossan> DarkS7ar: But let's check what network card you have
[07:11] <meowbuntu> Billiard, furuno could it be the updates that cause it to playup
[07:11] <wanted> furno: i got another problem to, my mic is not working in skype, so is there alternative for skype like pidigin or something else
[07:11] <furuno> meowbuntu: rephrase please
[07:11] <albert> only that furuno? i heard we need mozilla vlc or something...
[07:11] <furuno> wanted: try Ekiga
[07:11] <huneph_> then "Did not receive a reply. Possible causes include: the remote application did not send a reply, the message bus security policy blocked the reply, the reply timeout expired, or the network connection was broken.
[07:11] <huneph_> "
[07:11] <Celroc> Billiard: Funny thing is, my Grub.conf file is unchanged.
[07:11] <Billiard> huneph_: ok we will try backingup/moving your nautilus settings
[07:11] <huneph_> alright how?
[07:11] <meowbuntu> wanted, does your mic work in other apps
[07:11] <Billiard> huneph_: one sec
[07:11] <DarkS7ar> kossan: Atheros
[07:11] <huneph_> wait i got more
[07:11] <zetheroo> I probably should have not done this but I install Windows 7 on my Ubuntu machine on a seperate partition I created just for the Windows Install ... now however the system boots straight into Windows 7 without giving any attention to grub .... How can I get grub back and running without ruining the Windows install?
[07:11] <huneph_> nvm
[07:11] <furuno> albert: you might want to add mozilla-plugin-vlc so it'll be "sudo apt-get install vlc mozilla-plugin-vlc"
[07:11] <huneph_> same thing repeated
[07:12] <wanted> meowbuntu: my mic works in other apps
[07:12] <kossan> DarkS7ar: give me some more information with ifconfig
[07:12] <wanted> furno: but how can i use skype in ekiga
[07:12] <Celroc> !grub zetheroo
[07:12] <furuno> zetheroo: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows
[07:12] <boomernang> Billiard, indus - I have tried opengl and a few other modes in the vlc list. Still getting the same problem. I feel this has to do with my xorg.conf or something. Because it got created on another screen.
[07:12] <meowbuntu> wanted, is it confergured properly in skype

[07:18] <cheeko> yes
[07:18] <leaf-sheep> Kage_Jittai: Yes.
[07:18] <Billiard> Celroc: idk sorry
[07:18] <lstarnes> Kage_Jittai: it has been supported since 9.04
[07:18] <indus> Kage_Jittai: it does if you
[07:18] <indus> install fresh 9.10
[07:18] <lstarnes> Kage_Jittai: and is the default for 9.10

[07:19] <Zsoci> thank you so much.I'm really happy now :)
[07:19] <furuno> s
[07:19] <meowbuntu> wanted, in terminal type alsamixer
[07:19] <meowbuntu> ^ * or alisamixa
[07:20] <Draake> furuno, you wouldn't happen to know of a program that can read the file and organize everything? i had them all organized in iTunes.. Artist/Song Name/etc
[07:20] <Celroc> Hey all, all of a sudden (maybe it was after an update) my GRUB changed to be quite different (I had it somewhat customized), and I can't seem to get it back to normal. My grub.conf still has all of the entries
[07:20] <furuno> Draake: Rhythmbox can do that
[07:20] <Draake> furuno, nice!
[07:20] <boomernang> Hi, i'm using ubuntu 9.10 with a nvidia 9800GTX video card(closed drivers) - I had a 21" cheap lcd screen previously, and have now plugged in a 23" lcd tv via DVI. Booted up ubuntu and works flawlessly(res 1920x1080) except, i get like "ripples" or "cuts" on my screen when im watching a movie on vlc/mediaplayer. I have tried different video outputs and not helping at all. Could this be a hsync/vsync issue since my xorg.conf was created on another
[07:20] <boomernang>  screen?
[07:20] <meowbuntu> Billiard, furuno any ideas on my music media faults
[07:20] <furuno> Draake: or you might want to take a look at Songbird at getsondbird.com
[07:20] <furuno> Draake: * getsongbird.com
[07:20] <Billiard> meowbuntu: idk
[07:21] <Draake> im never going back to winblows
[07:21] <indus> boomernang: check the xorg settings for the monitor entries
[07:21] <meowbuntu> furuno, i was meaning that after i updated could that cause my media to stop playing properly
[07:21] <furuno> can anyone give me an "intact" /etc/apt/sources.list please? My Linux Mint 8 only list the archive.ubuntu.com which is slow :/
[07:22] <leaf-sheep> !mint | furuno
[07:22] <huneph_> billiard if it helps i'm using ubuntu studio 64 bit 9.10
[07:22] <Flannel> furuno: That is an intact one.
[07:22] <jussi01> !mintsupport
[07:22] <furuno> no I just want an intact "/etc/apt/sources.list" file from Ubuntu karmic
[07:22] <kraitos> i remove xubuntu-desktop and now ubuntu is slower, can anyone help?
[07:23] <meowbuntu> furuno, you need to go tp the linux mint irc channel on sportchat
[07:23] <boomernang> indus, here is my xorg.conf created by the command 'sudo Xorg :1 -configure' - http://pastebin.com/d46f56c81
[07:23] <meowbuntu> !mint
[07:23] <furuno> kraitos: so what are you using now?
[07:23] <furuno> yeah I know that :/
[07:23] <Flannel> furuno: Having it full of archive.ubuntu.com *is* an "intact" sources.list
[07:23] <boomernang> indus, it seems to be all automated even in the conf these days :(
[07:23] <kraitos> gnome, the original desktop, furuno
[07:23] <meowbuntu> furuno, mint is not supported here
[07:23] <bullgard> [Thunderbird <IP_ADDRESS>] Addressbook > Search > 'Dropdown list' lists as the first two entries 'Name or Email' and 'Category'. The Edit cards do not have a 'Category' field. What does 'Category' correspond to in the Edit card entries?
[07:23] <Billiard> huneph_: can you pastebin the nautilus error?
[07:23] <furuno> kraitos: maybe you want to try lxde instead
[07:24] <indus> boomernang: use the nvidia settigns tool to adjust monitor settings
[07:24] <Zsoci> thank you so much!now I solved everything :)
[07:24] <kraitos> furuno, also when i go to log in my splash image is tan orange color.
[07:24] <meowbuntu> furuno, are you using ubuntu or mint atm
[07:24] <furuno> kraitos: yes it's the default ubuntu brown
[07:24] <furuno> meowbuntu: I'm on mint
[07:24] <Flannel> meowbuntu: Please stop.
[07:24] <furuno> well nvm I find them myself :/
[07:24] <kraitos> furuno, i removed xfce because ubuntu was being slow in log in.
[07:24] <meowbuntu> then go to mint chanel for mint questions i got kicked out of here for doing that the other day
[07:25] <meowbuntu> ^ furuno
[07:25] <Kage_Jittai> hello cheeko is having a issue loading init after he makes a selection from the grub menu.  Is it possible he is passing to many arguements to init?  The error message is "init too long"
[07:25] <furuno> kraitos: why you remove xfce? xfce is your desktop...
[07:25] <meowbuntu> Flannel, stop what exactly
[07:25] <kraitos> furuno, but i used to have the 9.10 screen splash how do i put it back to that.
[07:25] <mneptok> meowbuntu: the point was made with the original triggering of the factoid by jussi01.
[07:25] <indus> meowbuntu: oversight
[07:25] <boomernang> indus, I would have no idea what to change. However, there is a new tab in there called DFP-0 (LG M2362D) which is my tv. This "force GPU scaling" is ticked. Sus.
[07:25] <indus> meowbuntu: nvm it
[07:25] <Ubuntu_user> where can i find eeexubuntu?
[07:25] <furuno> kraitos, try reinstalling xfce bt installing "xubuntu-desktop"
[07:25] <zetheroo> ok well I followed the Ubuntu documentation to reinstall grub and its not working!
[07:25] <indus> boomernang: hmm gpu scaling?
[07:25] <meowbuntu> indus, what is that
[07:26] <Flannel> furuno: You're looking for additional mirrors.  See !mirrors (/msg ubottu mirrors)
[07:26] <indus> meowbuntu: ask Flannel
[07:26] <furuno> Flannel: oh ty :)
[07:26] <mine> i have down some package for update  ,how to make it search in the dir  before search on line
[07:26] <furuno> !mirrors
[07:26] <kraitos> furuno, sorry for the confusion. i install xubuntu-desktop ontop of ubuntu so i could use xfce. and i did like it because it was slower starting up and shutingdown.
[07:26] <boomernang> indus, force gpu scaling is ticked and gpu scaling is "stretched". the scaling method options are "stretched/centered/aspect ratio" Thats all I can change in that tab. I will give aspect ratio a go.
[07:26] <furuno> kraitos: how about LXDE?
[07:27] <zetheroo> grub-setup is giving me warnings and telling me that what I am doing is not a good idea :) ha
[07:27] <indus> boomernang: ! YES
[07:27] <echotone> does anybody know why i wouldnt be able to install 9.10 after installing windows 7 and trying a clean install of ubuntu?
[07:27] <kraitos> furuno, what exactly is LXDE?
[07:27] <indus> boomernang: always aspect ratio is better i suppose
[07:27] <furuno> kraitos: a lightweight desktop environment
[07:27] <Billiard> echotone: whats stopping you?
[07:27] <indus> boomernang: tried xv output in player too
[07:27] <zetheroo> this is why some documentation is a headache to follow ... its not complete ...
[07:27] <meowbuntu> !facts
[07:27] <echotone> i have no clue. it doesnt get past letting me select whether to install or run live. either one gives me a black screen forever
[07:28] <Flannel> echotone: Try using the alternate CD to install
[07:28] <furuno> echotone: are you burn the CD correctly?
[07:28] <Billiard> echotone: check the cd for defects?
[07:28] <echotone> i am using it right now
[07:28] <kraitos> furuno, i just want gnome the way i had it, because i spend a lot of time setting it up like i wanted it.
[07:28] <Billiard> echotone: check the md5
[07:28] <Draake> furuno, hmmm. it don't seem to recognize my iphone
[07:28] <echotone> i installed it and when i boots it goes black
[07:28] <Ubuntu_user> where can i find eeexubuntu?
[07:28] <meowbuntu> can anyone help me with my media issues
[07:28] <huneph> I'm having nautilus problems anyone?
[07:28] <kraitos> furuno, i just want gnome the way i had it, because i spend a lot of time setting it up like i wanted it.
[07:28] <Billiard> echotone: you just said you cant even boot the cd
[07:29]  * meowbuntu will leave and come back if he cant get help atm
[07:29] <Flannel> echotone: That's a problem with X in the live environment.  You could spend time diagnosing/fixing it, or you could just download and install with the alternate CD.
[07:29] <echotone> it doesnt boot a regular cd. so i made an alternate and it boots and installs but the os doesnt boot
[07:29] <Billiard> echotone: did you install the boot loader to the mbr?
[07:29] <bullgard> How can I specify in pavumeter a PulsAudio source device to monitor (see man pavumeter)?
[07:29] <echotone> how do i do that?
[07:29] <cheeko> Billiard: im having the same prob
[07:29] <Billiard> echotone: the alternate cd you have to do it
[07:30] <mneptok> meowbuntu: what are the issues, exactly?
[07:30] <huneph> anyone know what causes nautilus to not open?
[07:30] <Flannel> echotone: What do you mean by "doesn't boot" after you've installed via the alternate CD?
[07:30] <huneph> getting error 4787
[07:30] <Flannel> echotone: Does it get to GRUB?
[07:30] <cheeko> Flannel: it says init too long
[07:30] <furuno> huneph: try reinstall nautilus? remove it with "sudo apt-get autoremove --purge nautilus"
[07:31] <echotone> yes. i run the installer from the alternate cd and then reboot the comp. it starts the os and i get the ubuntu logo...but then it switches to black and i cant do anything.
[07:31] <echotone> billiard.. how do i do that?
[07:31] <kraitos> can anyone help me with my problem?
[07:31] <Tina-> anyone know where i can find the source of the netbook-launcher (unr) , i want to compile it for my non ubuntu linux
[07:31] <Flannel> echotone: Alright, once you're at the black screen, can you hit ctrl-alt-f1 to switch to a terminal?
[07:31] <cheeko> Flannel: u have any idea
[07:31] <echotone> i am installing again right now. but i didnt try.
[07:31] <echotone> i doubt it tho
[07:31] <Flannel> echotone: Once it does, try it.  You've got X problems apparently
[07:32] <boomernang> indus, damn man. aspect-ratio didn't change a thing. Neither did unticking 'force gpu scale'.
[07:32] <zetheroo1> here is the output of me trying to reinstall grub to /dev/sda2 http://pastebin.com/m47c348dc
[07:32] <echotone> how would i go about fixing x problems?
[07:32] <Billiard> echotone: there is an option when installing via the alternate cd, you should use the desktop cd if you are a novice
[07:32] <Flannel> Billiard: That's not relevant to the problems he's having at all.
[07:32] <Tina-> zetheroo1: why not set it to mbr?
[07:32] <echotone> the desktop cd wont boot. thats why i made the alternate cd in the first place
[07:33] <zetheroo1> Tina-: I have no idea ... I am just following the Ubuntu Documentation on the topic
[07:33] <Flannel> echotone: You probably have to reconfigure it or something, I'm not up on the new X stuff, so I unfortunately can't help you.  Someone else here should be able to
[07:33] <echotone> thanks anyways flannel. i'll keep working on it
[07:33] <zetheroo1> !grub
[07:33] <Tina-> it is a bad idea to do thing when you have no idea :o
[07:33] <Billiard> Flannel: echotone: sorry, when i told him about the boot loader he made it sound like it still booted win 7 and didnt get grub
[07:33] <furuno> echotone: this might help : http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Xorg, it has quite nice info
[07:34] <zetheroo1> Tina-: well I have done it before ... but not with Karmic
[07:34] <Kage_Jittai> !grub2
[07:34] <echotone> I'll check it out. it installs win7 and runs it.
[07:34] <zetheroo1> Tina-: anyhow .. I followed the documentation easily ..
[07:34] <echotone> it also runs osx86 and win xp.
[07:34] <echotone> only not linuc
[07:35] <huneph> need some nautilus help anyone an expert?
[07:35] <Tina-> ic then it can be sane not to use mbr ;)

[07:35] <opossum_oisif> how do I reset the dashboard (icons in the top-right side for notifications, windows, session...) what is the file to remove?
[07:35] <Tina-> zetheroo1: i dont like grub2 much i think i downgrade to .97
[07:35] <huneph> nautilus experts?
[07:36] <huneph> anyone?
[07:36] <furuno> opossum_oisif: do you want to remove the system tray? just right click and choose remove from panel
[07:36] <furuno> huneph: maybe try #gnome
[07:36] <Ubuntu_user> where can i find eeexubuntu?
[07:36] <furuno> huneph: I mean, ##gnome
[07:36] <Tina-> Ubuntu_user: try UNR
[07:36] <zetheroo1> Tina-: I really don't mind grub2 and have gotten around things I thought were limitations ... but maybe this documentation has not been updated ..
[07:36] <opossum_oisif> furuno, I would to reset/reload to origin the panel
[07:37] <furuno> opossum_oisif: I don't quite understand what do you mean...
[07:37] <Tina-> zetheroo1: it refuses to make me a line for my gentoo :|
[07:37] <Ubuntu_user> Tina-, UNR actually uses MORE ram than default setup, and i prefer xfce anyhow
[07:37] <zetheroo1> Tina-: did you manually insert it ...
[07:37] <kraitos> can anyone tell me were the login splash are located and how to change the login splash?
[07:37] <furuno> Ubuntu_user: how abour Crunchbang?
[07:38] <opossum_oisif> furuno, I want to go back to the original panel that it comes with karmic , I will search on google
[07:38] <Ubuntu_user> furuno, nah, i like having a desktop lol
[07:38] <Tina-> Ubuntu_user: it not uses much ram +/-300MB in idle
[07:38] <Ubuntu_user> Tina-, was i misinformed?
[07:39] <furuno> opossum_oisif: oh, you can just add item to the panel by right clicking on the panel and choosing add to panel, and arrange them by moving them by dragging with the middle mouse button
[07:39] <Tina-> it really works fine on my eeepc
[07:39] <furuno> Ubuntu_user: Crunchbang use an Openbox desktop which is pretty light onr esources

[07:40] <opossum_oisif> furuno, I think rm -rf .gconf/apps/panel .gnome2/panel2.d will solve my problem
[07:40] <nomad77> Tina-: lxlauncher for eeepc is on lxde's sourceforge project page if that's what you meant.
[07:40] <furuno> opossum_oisif: sudo apt-get autoremove --purge gnome-panel might be better :)
[07:40] <zetheroo1> !grub2
