[13:03] <Pici> lesshaste_: I really don't have an answer for you.  I know that there was someone working on the Azeurus problems, but I dont know what the problems actually were.
[13:04] <lesshaste_> Pici, ok... it's all very odd as version 3 is the current one in any cased
[13:04] <lesshaste_> case

[13:05] <Belisarivs_> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/49149/
[13:05] <Belisarivs_> I switched to my notebook
[13:05] <g00se> windego40: Where are you at now
[13:05] <lesshaste_> does any repo have azureus version 3?
[13:06] <Pici> lesshaste_: Not official repo, I can't speak for 3rd party ones.

[13:07] <Belisarivs_> ok
[13:07] <shane2peru> I added vga=ask, vga=791, vga=normal, vga=792 one at a time to my menu.lst, and still not working correctly at boot
[13:07] <Filled-Void> #wesnoth
[13:08] <Filled-Void> gah
[13:08] <Belisarivs_> Thanks. Is that all?
[13:08] <ifireball> Belisarivs_: I think so, try it
[13:08] <lesshaste_> does any 3rd party repo have the latest azureus?
[13:09] <Belisarivs_> OK. Thank you. I'll give it a try and teport back in several minutes.
[13:09] <ifireball> Belisarivs_: (its a complex problem with a simple solution...)
[13:09] <shane2peru> ok, back to the splash screen on bootup is not at the right size and my monitor complains
[13:09] <shane2peru> anyone have any ideas?
[13:09] <lesshaste_> hmm..no one here uses azureus?
[13:10] <arturo> nessun italiano
[13:10] <danja> anyone recognise this problem? : the network seems to work ok but every time I try to get anything it slows to a halt at about 5k bytes. Same effect wired or wireless, I think I've knobbled all the ipv6 stuff, nothing obvious in tcpdump (although I don't really know what I'm looking for)
[13:10] <arturo> ?

[13:10] <arturo> mi dice kad off
[13:10] <ifireball> shane2peru: the desktop itself is in the right size?
[13:10] <shane2peru> ifireball, yes, everything else works fine, this is a fresh install of Gutsy
[13:10] <Pici> shane2peru: Did those changes have any effect? Are you sure you were making them to the right grub line?
[13:11] <g00se> windego40: According to those docs you should be mounting with sshfs
[13:11] <shane2peru> Pici, no, I tried a bunch of different settings, even used vga=ask and didin't get anywhere.
[13:11] <uchazco> Hi.. on 7.10 I have to keep rebooting to get my USB keyboard to work... didnt happen on 7.04... any ideas?
[13:12] <shane2peru> Pici, I had Gutsy installed before, and didn't have a problem, then I re-installed, it doesn't work. ??
[13:12] <windego40> g00se: i just tried it using sshfs but still says mount point isnt empty
[13:12] <ifireball> shane2peru: well, one thing you can do is disable the splash screen altogether, boot with the "nosplash" parameter
[13:12] <Pici> shane2peru: What video card?
Thank you kindly. It works. Perfact.
[13:13] <g00se> windego40: Why not empty it then?
[13:13] <Belisarivs> Perfect.
[13:13] <shane2peru> ifireball, yes, I could, but it has worked on everything I have ever run it since Breezy days. :)
[13:13] <ifireball> Belisarivs: glad to help
[13:13] <shane2peru> Pici, i910 Intel
[13:13] <Pici> shane2peru: And have you done all your updates?
[13:13] <Belisarivs> May I shoot in one morequestion?
[13:13] <shane2peru> Pici, yep that was my first step.
[13:13]  * danja wonders what a polite pause is before asking again
[13:13] <ifireball> Belisarivs: shoot
[13:14] <windego40> g00se: i dont know what point im supposed to empty
[13:14] <snkmad> whats a good value for glxgears?
[13:14] <Pici> snkmad: glxgears is NOT and has never been a benchmark
[13:14] <Ward1983> is it possible to use SLI in ubuntu?+ and if not, is there an alternative?
[13:14] <danja> anyone recognise this problem? : the network seems to work ok but every time I try to get anything it slows to a halt at about 5k bytes.  I have managed to compile and install RT61 driver. I am not sure what needs to be configured.  If i do it on my desktop... none...
[13:15] <tuna> Is there a way to set a proxy to be used systemwide by everything that supports it?
[13:15] <snkmad> Pici and thx
[13:15] <shane2peru> It worked before with a Gutsy install, same hardware, nothing else has changed.
[13:15] <Pici> shane2peru: Are you sure that you were editing the right grub line?
[13:15] <g00se> windego40: i.e. what sshfs command are you issuing?
[13:15] <windego40> g00se: its at /var/root/Media/ /media/ipod
[13:15] <tuna> I can only connect the web by proxy from one place, and looking for the settings for each individual program is a pain
[13:15] <shane2peru> yes, when I added vga=ask it asked me to pick from a list
[13:16] <Pici> shane2peru: Okay.
[13:16] <ifireball> danja: what do you mean by "try to get" ?
[13:16] <Ward1983> guyvdb_, i never had to compile drivers for my wifi cards, but are you sure that there actually are AP's in the neighbourhood?
[13:16] <Belisarivs> How to start terminals in other screens (to switch to them by Ctrl+Alt+F*). After pressing these, I could switch to another terminal. But now there is just black screen where it is impossible to log in? Is my question clear or too confusing?
[13:16] <Belisarivs> It's perhaps harder to explain.
[13:16] <shane2peru> Pici, I'm going to replace it with the original it had and reboot and see if it works with the original.
[13:16] <Pici> shane2peru: Okay, good luck
[13:16] <g00se> windego40: Try emptying /media/ipod (Backup first if you need stuff in it)
[13:16] <shane2peru> this is crazy it should work the way it is though.
[13:17] <guyvdb_> Ward1983: I have my laptop and my desktop. Wirless working in laptop and sees AP's ... desktop tying to config sees no aps
[13:17] <Pici> shane2peru: do a diff between the two files first, perhaps they are identical.
[13:17] <ifireball> Belisarivs: you press ctrl+alt+F1 and get a blank screen?
[13:17] <Ward1983> guyvdb_, no idea then, my cards allways got detected plug and play in ubuntu
[13:17] <guyvdb_> Ward1983: what needs to be set with iwconfig before you can see ap on iwlist ... scan
[13:17] <shane2peru> Pici, never used that before 'man diff' I assume will give me the idea?
[13:18] <void> some can write my nick ? (void)
[13:18] <ifireball> Belisarivs: can you get back to the graphical screen afterwards?
[13:18] <danja> void
[13:18] <Pici> void: please test your hilighting in a different channel, like #ubuntu-offtopic
[13:18] <Ward1983> void highlighttest
[13:18] <Ward1983> lol sorry
[13:18] <Belisarivs> Yes. Without option to log in. There was usually text asking for log in. Perhaps I screwed something and I don't know how to fix it.
[13:18] <Paavi2_0> has anyone got any idea how to fix this problem?: just updated kernel to 2.6.22-14-generic and now my system (7.10 amd64) refuses to boot cleanly and i get repeated error messages like: "[  98.234539] device-mapper: table: 254: 7: linear: dm-linear: Device lookup failed" i was able to boot cleanly and start gnome, when i selected the previous kernel on grub...what should i do?
[13:18] <windego40> g00se: hmmm it looks like the folders has the things fromy my ipod but i dont see it mounted on my comp
[13:18] <Pici> shane2peru: It should, but You could just do a visual comparison of the kernel lines, that might be faster.
[13:18] <Belisarivs> Yes, I can go back to Xes.
[13:19] <shane2peru> pici, no, I know there are a bunch of diferences, I have commented out and kept all old installations of Suse, PCLinux OS, Gentoo, Slack etc.
[13:19] <Belisarivs> There just isn't running tty
[13:19] <osman123> hi I do new install 7.10 but first problems dns after ubuntu not install update status faild? why problems?
[13:19] <Pici> shane2peru: okay.
[13:19] <Belisarivs> Where is problem? Should be getty run on startup?
[13:19] <windego40> g00se: think a reboot will remove the mount?
[13:20] <Ward1983> guyvdb_, sorry i don't know how tot setup using iwconfig, never needed to do that
[13:20] <Pici> Belisarivs: Try `sudo modprobe vga16fb
[13:20] <Pici> Belisarivs: and sudo modprobe fbcon
[13:20] <g00se> windego40: Yes
[13:20] <osman123> I insert ubuntu cd and open after install hdd
[13:20] <windego40> g00se: brb
[13:20] <Ward1983> guyvdb_, but maybe some people can help if you pastebin the output of iwconfig (and maybe ifconfig too)
[13:20] <osman123> but it is not update packet
[13:20] <g00se> windego40: Anyway it looks like it's mounted - isn't that the objective?
[13:20] <ifireball> Belisarivs: getty is supposed to be run by init, there sould be 6 such lines in /etc/inittab
[13:21] <Belisarivs> Cool. Thanks Pici.
[13:21] <Sharpie> i messed alot with the startup services and now i just want to return it all to default, is there any reference to it or anything (so i can see how everything was by default)?
[13:21] <Pici> Belisarivs: Unfortunately, its a known issue.
Pici suggested sudo modprobe vga16fb andsudo modprobe fbcon and it helped.
[13:21] <Belisarivs> Thanks for your time guys.
[13:22] <Pici> Sure thing.

[13:24] <elkbuntu> Sharpie, they dont deserve attention, dont give it to them
[13:24] <shane2peru> Pici, if I remove the splash it will get rid of the splash screen correct?
[13:24] <osman123> do you know first install 7.10 net connect probe???
Thanks, but I know. I have "some experience" with Linux.
[13:25] <Sharpie> i messed with the startup services and i want to return it to default, is there anywhere where i can see what the defaults are? (like an online reference)?
[13:25] <ikonia> Sharpie: download the deb and unpack it
[13:25] <ifireball> Belisarivs: just making sure. wouldn't want you hosing your system because of me ;)
[13:25] <Sharpie> ikonia: the deb of what?
[13:25] <ikonia> Sharpie: whatever you messed with
[13:26] <Belisarivs> bah, no need to worry. :)
[13:26] <Sharpie> ikonia: i just cancelled some of the services
[13:26] <shane2peru> if I delete the splash out of my menu.lst that should get rid of my boot screen thing?
[13:26] <Sharpie> ikonia: and i can't remember how it was before
[13:26] <ikonia> Sharpie: I you said you messed with them and want to see the defaults
[13:26] <ikonia> Sharpie: so download the deb and unpack it, it will contain the startup script
[13:27] <Sharpie> ikonia: but services don't come in debs >_<

[13:27] <Belisarivs> So, all problems are gone (for now :). Thanks guys.
[13:27] <ikonia> Sharpie: eg: sshd is a deb
[13:27] <Sharpie> ikonia: i'm talking about stuff like klogd
[13:27] <Sharpie> ikonia: or sysklogd
[13:27] <ikonia> Sharpie: syslog is a package
[13:27] <ikonia> Sharpie: so download the deb for it and unpack it
[13:27] <Sharpie> ikonia: i can't just redownload everything :/
[13:27] <Ward1983> lol virtually everything is a package
[13:27] <ikonia> Sharpie: then you should have taken a backup before messing around
[13:28] <Sharpie> ikonia: isn't there like a screenshot of the defaults online somewhere? :/
[13:28] <ikonia> Sharpie: no
[13:28] <Sharpie> ikonia: sux :|
[13:28] <ikonia> Sharpie: a screen shot of every init script
[13:28] <ikonia> Sharpie: not really,
[13:28] <Sharpie> ikonia: i'm talking like, sysv-rc-conf
[13:28] <ikonia> Sharpie: why would there be a screenshot of every init script
[13:28] <roundyz__> \quit
[13:29] <ifireball> Sharpie: update-rc.d <service> defaults
[13:29] <ikonia> Sharpie: nope
[13:29] <Andycasss> how to rename???

[13:30] <shane2peru> osman123, wireless , dialup, or wired?

[13:30] <osman123> with adsl
[13:30] <shane2peru> osman123, in a terminal run 'sudo ifup eth0'

[13:31] <osman123> ı havent got router
[13:31] <shane2peru> osman123, ok, run 'sudo ifup eth0' in a terminal window.
[13:31] <Ward1983> a adsl modem sometimes has a router (and dhcp server) baked in
[13:32] <thor> [chr0n0s] you should just have to plug it in. When you insert a card it should automatically show up in the filemanager

[13:34] <shane2peru> Ward1983, true, I figured maybe he was on another computer, but I guess if he doesn't have a router, that ain't happening
[13:34] <shane2peru> :)
[13:34] <danja> ok, let me preface this with a "pretty please":
[13:35] <danja> anyone recognise this problem? : the network seems to work ok but every time I try to get anything it slows to a halt at about 5k bytes.

[13:36] <Paavi2_0> ikonia: can you be more expecific?
[13:36] <bascule> sorry dangan :)
[13:36] <osman123> shane2 peru do you know any solution
[13:36] <danja> bascule, where do I look? both this machine and the ubuntu one should be connecting the same
[13:36] <ikonia> Paavi2_0: you said your new kernel doesn't work, in what way
[13:37] <Paavi2_0> ikonia: just updated kernel to 2.6.22-14-generic and now my system (7.10 amd64) refuses to boot cleanly and i get repeated error messages like: "[  98.234539] device-mapper: table: 254: 7: linear: dm-linear: Device lookup failed" i was able to boot cleanly and start gnome, when i selected the previous kernel on grub
[13:37] <membrive> danja you have the problem all the time?
[13:37] <bascule> danja: is it the same on both machines or just ubuntu?
[13:37] <ikonia> Paavi2_0: are you using any fakeraid partitions
[13:37] <danja> bascule, this winxp machine works fine

[13:41] <ifireball> danja: did you run that with "sudo" ?
[13:41] <bascule> danja: weird, what about wget, does it stop dead too? wget http://www.1clickcd.com/upload_files/mixupload/file-44416-1196690443.mp3
[13:41] <danja>  I sudo bash'd first
[13:41] <_ruben> <IP_ADDRESS> ? that doesnt look well
[13:41] <Arilou> !wine
[13:41] <ubotu> WINE is a compatibility layer for running Windows programs on GNU/Linux. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Wine for more information, and see !AppDB for application compatibility.
[13:41] <danja> wget starts working, gets to about 5k then slows to a halt
[13:41] <bascule> danja: sure, sudo  was needed
[13:42] <osman123> how to change or modify
[13:42] <bascule> danja: crazy
[13:42] <osman123> or fix it problem
[13:42] <ifireball> danja: working through a router?
[13:42] <danja> bascule, the root cause may well be router weirdness -
[13:43] <bascule> osman123: add new/different sources using synaptc
[13:43] <danja> ifireball, yes
[13:43] <Paavi2_0> ikonia: mdadm running, don't know about lvm though, might be...
[13:43] <kakoonia> hey
[13:43] <ikonia> Paavi2_0: ok, so do you have a raid array
[13:43] <ifireball> danja: ok. do you know which network interface you're using?
[13:43] <bascule> danja: could be, I have seen dhcp fail for no reason on some routers
[13:43] <Ward1983> is there a bot that i can query to see when someone was last online in the channel?
[13:44] <ifireball> bascule: it may be an MTU problem
[13:44] <osman123> how to it
[13:44] <bascule> ifireball: never thought of that, seen MTU break SSL
[13:44] <danja> bascule, I get the same effect giving the machine a static ip :-(
[13:44] <osman123> I beginner
[13:44] <Paavi2_0> ikonia: so it's raid problem :( what can i do? (anything else that removing/outcommenting the lines for newest kernel in /boot/grub/menu.lst?)
[13:45] <ifireball> danja: run "ifconfig" see that is the MTU value for your network interface
[13:45] <kakoonia> ive got a sound problem, i think its because i installed a kernel update, suddenly my sound card device name, disappeared from the sound propeties menu.. now i cant hear nothing, i was wondering if someone can help me out with updating the module back again.. with modprobe.. if thats the solution needed in this situation?
[13:45] <Pici> Ward1983: If the person is registered you can do `/msg nickserv info username`  But thats just for last time they were on Freenode. We dont have anything on a channel by channel basis.
[13:45] <Killerpope> does anybody know why ubuntu 7.10 amd64 wont install on my laptop (acer aspire 5920 with Intel 64 Core 2 Duo T7300)?
[13:45] <ikonia> Paavi2_0: are you running a raid array
[13:45] <^sa^> hello. i need help for the configuration of my wlan
[13:45] <rudihawk> killerpope - what error do you get?
[13:45] <Pici> osman123: Go to System>Administration>Software Sources
[13:45] <rudihawk> ^sa^ shoot :P
[13:46] <danja> ifireball, MTU is 1500 on both i/fs I've been using
[13:46] <Paavi2_0> Killerpope: its _amd_ 64, your laptop is _intel_
[13:46] <Ward1983> Pici, so nothing if they're not registered? (i ran into someone who askedabout linux yesterday, promised him i would try to bed here)
[13:46] <Ward1983> want to make sure i didnt miss him
[13:46] <^sa^> the problem is that i tried to do almost anything
[13:46] <^sa^> but the solution must be very simple
[13:46] <Killerpope> Paavi2_0: on ubuntu.com it says that it's for 64 bit processors of amd and intel
[13:46] <Pici> Killerpope: Paavi2_0: AMD64 install will work on any CPU that is EMT64 compatible.
[13:46] <Paavi2_0> ikonia: i only have one sata-disk attached
[13:46] <^sa^> because on live cd wireless works so fine
[13:46] <bascule> danja: can you check the MTU on the router?
[13:46] <ifireball> danja: ok, we need some host you can ping, do you know the address for your ISPs home page?
[13:46] <Pici> Killerpope: Which is practically all consumer 64bit cpus.
[13:46] <Killerpope> rudihawk: my screen simply shuts down
[13:46] <osman123> pici open it what do now
[13:47] <ikonia> Paavi2_0: so why is mdadm running
[13:47] <xjdriver69> !gpg
[13:47] <ubotu> gpg is the GNU Privacy Guard.  See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GnuPrivacyGuardHowto and class #8 on https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ClassroomTranscripts
[13:47] <Paavi2_0> ikonia: no idea, puzzles me
[13:47] <^sa^> rudihawk you read?
[13:47] <Pici> osman123: From the 'download from' box, pick 'other' then find your country and any listing under that.
[13:47] <ikonia> Paavi2_0: please put the boot lines of your menu.lst in a pastebin
[13:47] <Paavi2_0> ikonia: ok
[13:48] <danja> ifireball, now pinging what I think is the isps homepage
[13:48] <osman123> pici: Download from sever for türkiye
[13:48] <^sa^> can anybody help?
[13:48] <ifireball> danja: ok, stop it, do you get any packet loss?
[13:48] <danja> 203ms-ish (on the win machine it measured about 300 kbs)
[13:48] <osman123> Change it?
[13:49] <danja> ifireball, 0 packet loss
[13:49] <Pici> osman123: Change it to something else then, perhaps some other close country's server.
[13:49] <ifireball> danja: the times arn't that important right now
[13:49] <ifireball> danja: ok, now ping with "-s 1500"
[13:49] <Pici> !wifi | ^sa^
[13:49] <ubotu> ^sa^: Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs
[13:49] <osman123> pici: ı select other and click best server waiting now
[13:49] <^sa^> the problem is pici that on live cd works without doing anything
[13:50] <^sa^> and i already tried any solution....
[13:50] <^sa^> installing winxp driver,
[13:50] <danja> ifireball "ping -s 1500 <IP_ADDRESS>"
[13:50] <danja> not responding!
[13:50] <danja> 55 transmitted, 100% loss
[13:50] <ifireball> danja: I'm right ^^;;
[13:51] <Dr_willis> ^sa^,  you did compare what modules the live cd is loading with what modules the Installed version is using?
[13:51] <bascule> ifireball: top marks :)
[13:51] <Paavi2_0> ikonia: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/49159/
[13:51] <ifireball> danja: now try with, say, 1400
[13:51] <danja> ifireball, yup, that respond
[13:51] <^sa^> yes somebody suggested it in ubuntu-it
[13:51] <GSF1200S_> I hardly use compiz, but this is getting aggravating.. hehe
[13:51] <Paavi2_0> ikonia: nevermind the rt-kernel
[13:51] <Killerpope> the funny thing is that x86 live cd works perfectly, but on amd64 i get a blank screen
[13:51] <Nocturn> Hi guys
[13:51] <danja> 0% loss so far
[13:51] <^sa^> if you want dr_willis i can paste
[13:52] <ifireball> danja: ok, you need to play with the numbers until you find the point between 1400 and 1500 where it stops working
[13:52] <ikonia> Paavi2_0: what the heck is going on in there
[13:52] <Nocturn> Anyone know how to close a DVD session that was not closed properly?
[13:52] <ikonia> Paavi2_0: you have like 20 kernels !
[13:52] <Nocturn> it happened with a crashed DVD recorder (a box, not a PC)
[13:52] <danja> ok (nice problem recognition!)
[13:52] <ifireball> danja: do you know the "lion in the desert"?
[13:52] <^sa^> Dr_Willis do you want to read the differences?
[13:52] <Dr_willis> ^sa^,   just use diff on the output of the live cd's file and the installed cd's file and compare the modules loaded. Load any that are not in the list of both setuos. Is all ic an tell ya. I dont use wireless any more. good luck.
[13:52] <Paavi2_0> ikonia: my parents computer, i do only the most necessary maintenance :)
[13:53] <ikonia> Paavi2_0: why is there 3 distros and about 20 kernels on it ?
[13:53] <ip00n> if i install 7.04 desktop now, is it easy to upgrade to 7.10?
[13:53] <ip00n> and what is the difference?
[13:53] <bryan_w[wkr]> Why not just install 7.10?
[13:53] <Dr_willis> ip00n,  install 7.10 if you can.
[13:53] <^sa^> so you mean i gotta install all the packs not installed and that runs on the live cd?
[13:53] <Paavi2_0> ikonia: i'm lazy, ain't i?
[13:53] <ip00n> but then i have to download 7.10 :(
[13:53] <ifireball> danja: (while you play with the numbers I'll find where to you configure the MTU value exactly...)
[13:53] <ikonia> Paavi2_0: thats very scrappy
[13:53] <ikonia> ip00n: you'll have to download it if you upgrade
[13:53] <ikonia> Paavi2_0: which kernel is failing to boot
[13:53] <ip00n> oh, right. :p
[13:53] <RantingHuman> is there some program that adds a number to the file names in a directory depending on their modification date?
[13:54] <Dr_willis> ^sa^,  the Modules, are in the kernel. there souldent be any extra installing, just 'sudo modprobe whatevermoduleisnotgettingloaded'
[13:54] <Paavi2_0> ikonia: the both 2.6.22-14s
[13:54] <danja> ifireball, thanks - 1464 ok, 1465 0%
[13:54] <^sa^> i dont know how to do...
[13:54] <^sa^> -_-
[13:54] <ikonia> Paavi2_0: can you try booting one of them in single user mode
[13:54] <^sa^> cant i use synaptic?
[13:54] <Dr_willis> ^sa^,  lsmod on the live cd, lsmod on the isntalled cd. save output from both commands to 2 files, compare the 2 files.
[13:54] <Paavi2_0> ikonia: 2.6.20 works fine...
[13:54] <Dr_willis> ^sa^,  loading Modules has Nothing todo with the package manager.
[13:54] <GSF1200S_> can someone tell me what may compiz to do this, but only sometimes...
[13:55] <GSF1200S_> http://img337.imageshack.us/my.php?image=snapshot19eg7.jpg
[13:55] <ikonia> Paavi2_0: can you boot one of the 22's in single user mode
[13:55] <kakoonia> ive got a sound problem, i think its because i installed a kernel update, suddenly my sound card device name, disappeared from the sound propeties menu.. now i cant hear nothing, i was wondering if someone can help me out with updating the module back again.. with modprobe.. if thats the solution needed in this situation?
[13:55] <ip00n> omg, its gonna take 40 minutes to dl 7.10 :( what on earth will i do meanwhile?
[13:55] <^sa^> so i do it on hd and then when i run the live cd
[13:55] <Dr_willis> ^sa^,  for example 'sudo modprobe emu10k1_gp' loads my soundcard module.
[13:55] <Paavi2_0> ikonia: i'll try now
[13:55] <^sa^> i see
[13:55] <^sa^> well i can try...
[13:55] <Dr_willis> ^sa^,  boot live cd. 'sudo lsmod > /media/WHEVER/livecd.module.list'
[13:56] <Dr_willis> ^sa^,  boot installed Disrto 'sudo lsmod > /media/WHEVER/installed.module.list'
[13:56] <cabrioleur> kakoonia, what's you sound card?
[13:56] <ifireball> danja: go into /etc/network/interfaces
[13:56] <Sgt> hello everyone
[13:56] <Dr_willis> ^sa^, then compare the 2 files.
[13:56] <troythetechguy> My current kernel is (Linux debian 2.6.18-5-486 ).  When I run apt-get update/upgrade, I'm told the following package will be upgraded, " linux-image-2.6.18-5-486"  Is this not already installed?
[13:56] <^sa^> how?
[13:56] <ikonia> troythetechguy: this is ubuntu support, not debian
[13:57] <danja> iifireball, ok I'm in interfaces
[13:57] <ifireball> danja: add "mtu 1464" line to the lines configuring your interface (assuming you're not using DHCP)
[13:57] <Sgt> Is anyone familiar with the error message: "Unable to allocate resources in region 7" during boot?
[13:57] <marex_v2> is it possible that formating a drive from ntfs to ext3 could make you loose 30GB of free space? I mean a friend of mine formated his drive from ntfs to ext3. he claims that the real size of the drive would be 464Gbyte ("500GB") but with ext3 its only 434GB. ntfs gives him the full space.
[13:57] <^sa^> and i have to do it once? once i install the right thing i dont have to do it anymore, right?
[13:57] <a514> Hi the window border disappears when i use compiz, how do i fix it.
[13:57] <Dr_willis> marex_v2,  5% is 'reserved' by default. that can be changed with the
[13:57] <Dr_willis> marex_v2,  tune2fs command.
[13:57] <bascule> marex_v2: it reserve 5% look at tune2fs
[13:58] <bascule> Dr_willis: heh :)
[13:58] <danja> ifireball, ok - reboot?
[13:58] <Dr_willis> marex_v2,  thers also rounding issues - with HOW you look at the sizes of the disks.
[13:58] <ifireball> danja: nope
[13:58] <danja> er, networking restart?
[13:58] <ifireball> danja: yep
[13:58] <marex_v2> Dr_willis, ah thanks that reserving issue might be the problem :)
[13:58] <ifireball> danja: then confirm it was set properly with "ifconfig"
[13:59] <Sgt> Is anyone familiar with the error message: "Unable to allocate resources in region 7" during boot?
[13:59] <marex_v2> what are that 5% for anyway?
[13:59] <a514> Hi When i enable Compiz the window border does not show
[13:59] <bascule> Sgt: see it all the time, apic issue AFAIK, not a problem
[13:59] <Dr_willis> marex_v2,  space for the fsck to recover lost/found files mainly I think
[13:59] <cabrioleur> a514, install emerald or use metacity window manager
[14:00] <a514> thanks cab i read about that
[14:00] <Sgt> thanks bascule, but it takes about 2-3 minutes for my system to boot up.....which doesn't seem normal at all
[14:00] <bascule> Dr_willis: also for forced boots with 0 space on the drive which linux hates
[14:00] <marex_v2> Dr_willis, ok thanks for your help :)
[14:01] <Dr_willis> bascule,  try it with windows see what happens. :)
[14:01] <bascule> Sgt: is it right at the start prior to boot splash?
[14:01]  * Dr_willis waits patiently for 1 TB hds to get under $100
[14:01] <Sgt> Pardon my ignorance, but what do you mean by boot splash?
[14:01] <bascule> Dr_willis: never seen it on either actually, but linux needs to log or it won't start
[14:01] <a514> I think this irc channel should be on by default in pidgin
[14:01] <bascule> Sgt: the ubuntu logo with the bar moving
[14:02] <brobostigon> a514: thats a good idea.
[14:02] <Sgt> I don't see that at all...
[14:02] <bascule> Sgt: then something is wrong
[14:02] <a514> Hey cab what is the default window manager for 7.10
[14:02]  * danja has to do a little fiddling - was on the /other/ interface...
[14:02] <Sgt> After that message, the screen is blank (where the delay takes place), then finally I'm promted with the logon
[14:02] <brobostigon> a514, if its ubuntu then gnome
[14:02] <Paavi2_0> ikonia: both kernels' recovery modes just gave same device lookup error messages
[14:03] <Paavi2_0> ikonia: 2.6.22-14-generic & 2.6.22-14-rt
[14:03] <ikonia> Petrov_: add "single" to the end of the kernel boot line (not recovery mode) and boot it, please also get the exact error
[14:04] <bascule> Sgt: try removing the splash screen from boot, in grub
[14:04] <todobg> when we get vlc 0.8.6d in ubuntu ???
[14:04]  * bascule doesn't know how to do this from the esc option at start up
[14:04] <kakoonia> cabrioleur: my sound card is AC97 high definition or something like that
[14:04] <paulo-falcao> can anyone help me with amarok in ubuntu 7.10?
[14:04] <flokuehn> paulo-falcao: what the matter ?
[14:04] <paulo-falcao> no sound
[14:04] <paulo-falcao> since update
[14:05] <flokuehn> paulo-falcao: ? ok that stuff matters
[14:05] <flokuehn> paulo-falcao: you use alsamixer?
[14:05] <paulo-falcao> ??
[14:05] <paulo-falcao> i m a newbie in linux
[14:05] <Sgt> Bascule: Do this in the boot menu? Or is there a way to access this in Gnome?
[14:05] <flokuehn> paulo-falcao: ok. no problem. open an terminal and type in alsamixer
[14:05] <flokuehn> paulo-falcao: open an console
[14:06] <paulo-falcao> ok
[14:06] <paulo-falcao> a window with bars
[14:06] <bascule> Sgt: not from gnome, using grub, either menu.lst or on the escape menu at startup
[14:06] <Paavi2_0> ikonia: line beginning with "kernel"..?
[14:06] <ikonia> yes
[14:06] <Sgt> OK, thanks bascule.  Hopefully, I won't be back  :)
[14:07] <flokuehn> paulo-falcao: whatever you mean by bars. its an black window with an prompt an you can type something.
[14:07] <paulo-falcao> no after typing alsamixer appears a window with bars :)
[14:07] <todobg> amarok>settings>engine> ...put alsa
[14:08] <flokuehn> paulo-falcao: ah yes. thats it
[14:08] <flokuehn> paulo-falcao: you can also try what todobg tells you
[14:08] <intelikey> is there any good use for a fritz chip?     or is (evil)DRM  all they are good for ?
[14:08] <TwigEther> Hi all - I'm trying to download the source to mpd using "apt-get source mpd", am getting (13 Permission denied) error... any clues?
[14:08] <Paavi2_0> ikonia: that only differs from recovery mode by quiet and splash :o
[14:09] <paulo-falcao> ??
[14:09] <Paavi2_0> then
[14:09] <flokuehn> paulo-falcao: what kind of soundcard do you use. onboard card or extra card ?
[14:09] <ikonia> thats finbe
[14:09] <paulo-falcao> onboard
[14:09] <Paavi2_0> TwigEther: add "sudo" in front of that
[14:09] <paulo-falcao> acer Aspire 5610
[14:09] <TwigEther> Paavi2_0: yeah, I was already doing that :)
[14:09] <flokuehn> ok. this is the whole machine eh?
[14:09] <ifireball> intelikey: they can be used for secure computing, but I havn't heard of such implementation yet..
[14:09] <a514> Hi i want to install KDE debs from the Kubuntu 7.10 cdrom to the synaptic repository. Will it work?
[14:10] <danja> ifireball, ok I made the mtu change, I *think* it's reduced the amount of the page I'm getting through - hard to tell, it was a planet blog and someone else has posted :-( I tried reducing the value a bit more and the got dns errors
[14:10] <TwigEther> Paavi2_0: hm, looks like the mirror I'm using doesn't actually have that package
[14:10] <KinPumpkinKing> I've installed kubuntu-desktop and didn't like it. So I formatted my PC. When I installed Ubuntu again these errors kept happening: systemlocks, session closing and programs closing out of the blue. help, please?
[14:10] <chazco> Hi... since the flash plugin is broken how can I install it manually?
[14:10] <paulo-falcao> have to go now
[14:10] <Paavi2_0> TwigEther: why are you trying to get the source anyway, why don't you just install the binaries?
[14:10] <paulo-falcao> will be back at night
[14:11] <TwigEther> Paavi2_0: I need to rebuild the mpd package to add libsamplerate support
[14:11] <intelikey> ifireball hmmm,  ok.   seems this box has hardware i don't want/like/need and lacks hardware i feel that it should have like a thermal sensor for the cpu
[14:11] <cabrioleur> chazco, download it from adobe website
[14:11] <TwigEther> http://www.mirrorservice.org/sites/archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/gutsy/universe/source/ <-- source packages ought to be here, no?
[14:12] <Paavi2_0> TwigEther: ok. sorry, you just have to google for sources, there might not be any sources for that in ubuntu repos
[14:12] <TwigEther> ah
[14:12] <TwigEther> That's a bit of a pain :)
[14:12] <TwigEther> Oh well. Cheers :)
[14:12] <ifireball> danja: now that is weird... souldn't give you DNS trouble in any case... are you seeing the right value in ifconfig?
[14:13] <Paavi2_0> i'll get out ->
[14:13] <todobg> where can i found howto create shotdown button in desktop ?
[14:13] <ifireball> danja: can you try the wget test again?
[14:13] <Lacrymology> ok, I'm tired of this. I upgraded to gutsy, and my sound won't work. I want back until the new kernels are released, how do I do this?
[14:13] <SoLe> hi there
[14:14] <Lacrymology> or at the very least, how do I get a 2.6.20 kernel?
[14:14] <Dr_willis> Lacrymology,  you sure its a kernel issue and not an alsa issue?
[14:14] <KinPumpkinKing> I've installed kubuntu-desktop and didn't like it. So I formatted my PC. When I installed Ubuntu again these errors kept happening: systemlocks, session closing and programs closing out of the blue. help, please?
[14:15] <cabrioleur> Lacrymology, you can just download kernel for 7.04 and install it manually with dpkg.
[14:15] <Dr_willis> You could try instaling the latest alsa from source, may be a bug. Well off to work.. byess.
[14:15] <cabrioleur> Lacrymology, or you can figure out the problem with the card :-)
[14:15] <Lacrymology> cabrioleur: it's a known issue
[14:15] <besquare> hi'ya mates
[14:15] <danja> ifireball, gotta go eat, but thanks a million - the issue is a "Black Hole router", right? I should be ok from here
[14:15] <ifireball> Lacrymology: maybe the 2.20 kernel is still installed? do you have it in /boot ?
[14:15] <Lacrymology> apparently it gets fixed installing alsa 1.0.15, but alsa-project's ftp and my ISP are not getting along
[14:16] <cabrioleur> Lacrymology, yeah, I had a couple of them. And there _is_ a solution for everything.
[14:16] <Lacrymology> ifireball: no, it's not
[14:16] <moldy> hi
[14:16] <Lacrymology> anyways
[14:16] <ifireball> danja: probably, I'm quite convinced it have to do with mtu though
[14:17] <danja> boo, wget still running out at below 5k
[14:17] <Lacrymology> apparently INTEL chipset support is not enabled for the newest kernel, and I'm tired of looking. I'm quite positive it's a kernel issue
[14:17] <cabrioleur> Lacrymology, make menuconfig? :-D
[14:17] <cabrioleur> Lacrymology, I know your problem
[14:18] <besquare> lspci
[14:18] <besquare> modprobe
[14:18] <besquare> !
[14:18] <Lacrymology> besquare: that for me?
[14:18] <Lacrymology> I've already done all that time and again
[14:18] <besquare> if you like
[14:18] <cabrioleur> Lacrymology, add "options snd-hda-intel model=lenovo" to alsa-base file and reload snd-hda-intel module.
[14:18] <minus> Does anyone know a GOOD wlan connectivityprogram? nm-applet sucks!
[14:19] <Lacrymology> cabrioleur: where's that alsa-base file?
[14:19] <besquare> tried installing kmixer?
[14:19] <cabrioleur> Lacrymology, /etc/modprobe.d/
[14:19] <Lacrymology> besquare: not going to help. aplay dies horribly
[14:19] <cabrioleur> Lacrymology, I have slackware so I cannot confirm.
[14:20] <cabrioleur> mindframe_, wifiradar
[14:20] <ifireball> cabrioleur: I confirm
[14:22] <Lacrymology> cabrioleur:
[14:22] <Lacrymology> cabrioleur: aplay: main:545: audio open error: No such device
[14:22] <cabrioleur> My connection is so slow that I cannot load google :-D
[14:22] <a514> Hi i d/led a emerald theme imported it but does not list it?
[14:23] <KinPumpkinKing> I've installed kubuntu-desktop and didn't like it. So I formatted my PC. When I installed Ubuntu again these errors kept happening: systemlocks, session closing and programs closing out of the blue. help, please? My cpu is onboard...
[14:23] <brobostigon> KinPumpkinKing: no idea,sorry.
[14:23] <cabrioleur> Lacrymology, does lspci | grep hda gives you something? Or cat /dev/soundstat?
[14:23] <KinPumpkinKing> brobostigon, thanks anyway D=
[14:24] <silverhawk_184> can someone please help me install my ati driver, ive followed this tut. http://wiki.cchtml.com/index.php/Ubuntu_Gutsy_Installation_Guide but i cant get all of the fglrx modules, here is my current modules http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/49162/
[14:24] <Lacrymology> cabrioleur: nope
[14:24] <Lacrymology> /dev/soundstat doesn't exist
[14:24] <asterisk2216> any hope to when flash will be back again?
[14:24] <brobostigon> KinPumpkinKing: could be a hardware problem, as you tootally replaced all software
[14:24] <KinPumpkinKing> silverhawk_184, if you want to install your video driver, you can just run Envy
[14:25] <asterisk2216> ....or if it possible to go around it and download the correct flashplugin some other way?
[14:25] <Lacrymology> no
[14:25] <Lacrymology> envy is evil!
[14:25] <Pici> !envy | KinPumpkinKing silverhawk_184
[14:25] <ubotu> KinPumpkinKing silverhawk_184: envy is not needed or supported. Use the Resticted Manager to install binary drivers and see « /msg ubotu binarydriver »
[14:25] <Toolmakr> Hello !!!!
[14:25] <KinPumpkinKing> Pici, I used envy and it worked just fine :3
[14:25] <asterisk2216> hello toolmakr.

[14:25] <Pici> !wfm | KinPumpkinKing please read

[14:26] <silverhawk_184> thanks, wow, that looks easy, should i remove all the changes i had made via the tut
[14:26] <bazhang> KinPumpkinKing: bad idea--it may come back to bite you

[14:36] <bazhang> bicz: on linux itunes is not available
[14:36] <cabrioleur> bicz, encrypted?
[14:36] <Pici> !itunes | bicz
[14:36] <ubotu> bicz: itunes is not available on Linux, but there are many audio player alternatives (see !players). For Daap clients (sharing music with other iTunes clients on the network), install banshee
[14:36] <silverhawk_184> thanks
[14:36] <Lacrymology> slestak: find . ! -name _* -print works for me....
[14:36] <bicz> cabrioleur: yes i think i see the cursor go, but no music

[14:39] <KinPumpkinKing> silverhawk_184, everyone here advised against it
[14:39] <slestak> Lacrymology: it works until I pipe it into xargs grep.  then it searches all files.  crap.  With my db app, source code and binary executables are in the same dir so my grep is hitting binaries.
[14:39] <poningru_> ^sa^, whats wrong?
[14:39] <bicz> Pici: it was m4p, my friend convert to mp3 with her "applentosh" but still not playng on VLC, gxine kaffeine

[14:40] <bicz> Pici:  i think i need codec but i dont know if exist :)
[14:40] <Pici> bicz: Then I dont know, sorry. It should 'just work' then.
[14:40] <bicz> Pici: i know tnx anyway
[14:40] <Pici> bicz: Perhaps try with totem and see if it suggests that you need other codecs

[14:49] <poningru_> when did it stop working?
[14:49] <poningru_> Vad3, lsof
[14:49] <^sa^> since i installed ubuntu

[14:49] <Pici> ^sa^: When its 'not working' what exactly is wrong? do you see it in iwconfig?
[14:50] <poningru_> ^sa^, can you do an iwconfig in the terminal
[14:50] <^sa^> done
[14:50] <poningru_> what do you get?
[14:51] <^sa^> can i past it in private?

[14:51] <poningru_> highlight the stuff in the terminal and just middle click it into the browser
[14:52] <poningru_> as in hover your mouse over where you want to paste and middle click
[14:52] <poningru_> or in the terminal you can copy by doing ctrl+shift+c
[14:52] <^sa^> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/49165/plain/
[14:53] <poningru_> ^sa^, ok that means it is detected
[14:53] <poningru_> can you do a dmesg in the terminal and pastebin that
[14:53] <^sa^> ok
[14:53] <Pici> poningru_: I would think he just needs to set an essid name
[14:53] <poningru_> Pici, no my guess is firmware
[14:53] <Yancho> can ubuntu for 64bit run on dual core t7200?

[14:55] <Andycasss> Do I need to change the hostname of my ubuntu for Zimbra? It would probably screw up my mythtv mysql db
[14:55] <Yancho> cheers poningru_ :)

[14:56] <Ljorring> is xgl supposed to create a directory '~/.config/xserver-xgl'?
[14:56] <poningru_> if you want something that is similar and plays nicer use Citadel
[14:56] <poningru_> Andycasss, we fracked up our * box at work installing zimbra on it
[14:56] <poningru_> ^sa^, dmesg please

[15:04] <don_pucci> reinstall network-manager
[15:05] <Orfintain> there was the "use entire harddrive" but ..
[15:05] <Pici> Ljorring: With desktop effects is it smooth?
[15:05] <don_pucci> uninstall/reinstall wpasupplicant
[15:05] <don_pucci> tried dhcp
[15:05] <Ljorring> Pici: I am in a unique situation, I cant google it..
[15:05] <don_pucci> tried static
[15:05] <Ljorring> Pici: with or without, it is 1fps
[15:05] <Ljorring> when I open a window, it lags for 3 sec
[15:05] <bloodniece> i know this isn't ubuntu specific, but which pairs from cat5/ethernet are actually needed?  is it the orange and blue?
[15:05] <Ljorring> its only smooth, when I dont move windows
[15:05] <poningru_> ^sa^, what ubuntu are you using?
[15:05] <^sa^> 7.10
[15:05] <Pici> Ljorring: Does it lag in the virtual terminals?
[15:06] <^sa^> 32 bit version
[15:06] <Pici> bloodniece: try ##networking
[15:06] <Ljorring> Pici: minimizing, maximizing, yes
[15:06] <bloodniece> pici, i know. that channel is dead
[15:06] <Ljorring> Pici: the redrawing of text in this xcat session lags too
[15:06] <Pici> Ljorring: I mean ctrl-alt-F1 - F6
[15:06] <Pici> bloodniece: then #ubuntu-offtopic
[15:06] <Ljorring> Pici: ahh
[15:06] <don_pucci> is there an updated release of gutsy that includes the 148 updates?
[15:07] <Ljorring> Pici: when I press ctrl+alt+f1, how do I come back to my UI?
[15:07] <Ljorring> Pici: I remember myself to be stuck there :)
[15:07] <bloodniece> thanks
[15:07] <Pici> Ljorring: ctrl-alt-f7 (or f8)
[15:07] <Ljorring> Pici: ok, brb I will try
[15:07] <ruffleS> don_pucci, aptoncd would help you
[15:08] <don_pucci> wow

[15:08] <Ljorring> Pici: if I remove xserver-xgl package, my graphics are smooth. But ofc I cant get desktop effects
[15:08] <crush_groove>  is a module a 'patch" ?
[15:08] <Torrent> I installed uwsusp, but when I type sudo s2disk, it says could not stat the resume device file. reason: no such file or directory
[15:08] <poningru_> and then do a sudo modprobe prism54
[15:08] <Pici> crush_groove: -offtopic, you can ask there.
[15:09] <^sa^> and now?
[15:09] <Pici> Ljorring: Have you asked in #compiz-fusion?

[15:09] <crush_groove>   sorry pici ..
[15:09] <Ljorring> Pici: nopes, I will do that now, I guess :)
[15:09] <poningru_> ^sa^, do an iwconfig
[15:09] <EtteSB> im looking to see if i have a package. skype says it needs Qt 4.2.1 altho it doesn't give me a package name. i've looked in synaptic but theres loads of QT's so i dunno which one i need
[15:09] <poningru_> and a ifconfig
[15:09] <bazhang> pete2: is that HP?
[15:09] <poningru_> what do you see?
[15:09] <pete2> yes bazhang
[15:10] <Pici> Ljorring: I just don't see why it would be doing this, My ATI card just needs fglrx and xgl-server.
[15:10] <^sa^> lo        no wireless extensions.
[15:10] <Stevop> can anyone help find out why i cant install apache on 7.10?
[15:10] <^sa^> eth0      no wireless extensions.
[15:10] <crush_groove>  pici we need a list of "Ontopic" topics .because ubuntu is linux and I asked a linux question
[15:10] <crush_groove> linux derivitive anyway
[15:10] <poningru_> ^sa^, if its more than 1 line always pastebin
[15:10] <bazhang> crush_groove: getting an ubuntu installation to work is the main on-topic topic iirc
[15:10] <Pici> crush_groove: /join #ubuntu-offtopic  and we'll talk about it
[15:11] <mitchp> Pici; my ATI card won't work no matter what I do.  What card does he have (i forgot his name)?
[15:11] <Stevop> hello can anyone help me?
[15:11] <crush_groove>  aha /. ty bazhang  ..
[15:11] <^sa^> ok sorry
[15:11] <Pici> mitchp: radeon 9600 iirc
[15:11] <Torrent> I installed uwsusp, but when I type sudo s2disk, it says could not stat the resume device file. reason: no such file or directory
[15:11] <^sa^> anyway now it does not recognise the wifi
[15:11] <crush_groove>  ok pici /..
[15:11] <mitchp> Pici; my roommate got that one to barely work.  Still didn't like compiz.
[15:12] <Ljorring> Pici: I dont get it either..
[15:12] <pete2> bazhang: yes, HP M1005 MFP
[15:12] <poningru_> ^sa^, thats it?
[15:12] <poningru_> nothing else in iwconfig?
[15:12] <^sa^> when i use livecd it gives an error about iwlwifi_rc80211_simple
[15:12] <Stevop> hello?
[15:12] <poningru_> ^sa^, I think the best thing you can do now is ndiswrapper
[15:13] <poningru_> I think I can fix it the right way...
[15:13] <^sa^> already done
[15:13] <^sa^> and doesnt work
[15:13] <poningru_> oh?
[15:13] <poningru_> just use the latest one
[15:13] <Ljorring> Pici: my history is: first I got it working through flgrx + xgl... it took a whole weekend and irc+google. then I screwed it up again... a guy in #compiz made it work again with the open source drivers+direct rendering.. the effects were good, but not as fast as with flgrx
[15:13] <mitchp> Ljorring; in all honesty, I would get an nVidia card.  As much as it pains me, i think that's what i'm going to do
[15:13] <^sa^> done
[15:13] <poningru_> !ndis
[15:13] <Torrent> ^sa^: Try compiling ndiswrapper from source.

[15:13] <bazhang> http://suseforums.net/index.php?showtopic=42788 pete2; oddly enough the last listing in that thread is for ubuntu :}
[15:13] <^sa^> i've done anything i can...
[15:13] <SpookyET> HI all
[15:13] <poningru_> ^sa^, you compiled from source?
[15:13] <^sa^> i expect i gotta delete ubuntu and go back to windows
[15:13] <Pici> Ljorring: Wait, so you had the open source driver installed? /methinks its not fully removed.
[15:13] <SpookyET> I have found Beagle 0.3.1 deb packages at http://http.us.debian.org/debian/pool/main/b/beagle/
[15:13] <drgeb> when i try to log in I am immediately kicked out. Now I did a grep WW on Xorg.log and grep EE and there are know errors. So where can the problem lie ?
[15:13] <poningru_> ^sa^, ok
[15:13] <^sa^> i'm not able to
[15:14] <Ljorring> mitchp: hehe, yes... I dream of nvidia all night & day.. if only I was not a poor studendt xD
[15:14] <bazhang> pete2: I would like to see if that can made to work as I would like to buy one as well
[15:14] <^sa^> and by the way on the live cd it works. and that's strange
[15:14] <Ljorring> Pici: yes, I got it up running w the open source stuff
[15:14] <^sa^> i dont install any driver on live cd
[15:14] <^sa^> and goes fine
[15:14] <pete2> bazhang: yes i am there on sane-backends , http://www.nabble.com/sane-driver-for-hp-laserjet-m1005-mfp-to12469670.html , but i am too new to linux to be able to compile
[15:14] <mitchp> Ljorring; yea, same situation as me.  Hoping for xmas money :-P
[15:14] <Ljorring> mitchp: xD
[15:15] <pete2> bazhang: can u help me try to set it up ?
[15:15] <Paavi2_0> ^sa^: your cd might be damaged
[15:15] <Ljorring> Pici: can you help me investigate for old ati drivers?
[15:15] <^sa^> you think so?
[15:15] <^sa^> it gives this error

[15:17] <gorilla3d> I had my webcam working ~_~ but I unplugged it and its in another usb port and now its not working. the apps that use it look for /dev/vide0 but that doesn't exist...
[15:17] <minus_> How do I change the mode of my WLAN card? Its running 802.11a but I want 802.11b org g
[15:17] <drgeb> bulmer just tried it and for one user I can
[15:17] <pete2> bazhang: that is only for printer, which works really good atm
[15:17] <KiD_ChAoS> has anyone used kooka for OCR?
[15:18] <Paavi2_0> ^sa^: there might be an error in that script that's supposed to install your wifi drivers
[15:18] <gorilla3d> How do I make my webcam go back to being /dev/video0 ? the light is on so I know linux detects it
[15:18] <pete2> bazhang: i dont think that has to do anything with xsane for scanner
[15:18] <^sa^> how can i do then?
[15:18] <KiD_ChAoS> the kooka's settings it mentions ocrad binary not found
[15:18] <cabrioleur> KiD_ChAoS: yes
[15:18] <poningru_> minus_, it should automatically switch based on the ap
[15:18] <KiD_ChAoS> cabrioleur, did you have to manually install the ocrad binary
[15:18] <rinaldi_> im having problems installing flashplayer-nonfree, is the installation still broken?
[15:18] <drgeb> bulmer: found something interesting in my .xsession.errors "gnome-session: Fatal IO error 104 (Connection reset by peer) on X server :0.0." how can I fix this ?
[15:18] <bazhang> pete2: ah, my mistake--in my zeal I misread
[15:18] <poningru_> rinaldi_, yes
[15:18] <minus_> poningru_, ok...
[15:18] <cabrioleur> do you have ocrad installed?
[15:18] <Jack_Sparrow> rinaldi_: yes
[15:19] <^sa^> paavi2_0 how can i do?
[15:19] <pete2> bazhang: this is the solution i think : http://www.nabble.com/sane-driver-for-hp-laserjet-m1005-mfp-to12469670.html
[15:19] <minus_> poningru_, but it cant connect. I cant get an IP
[15:19] <KiD_ChAoS> im not sure cabrioleur
[15:19] <KiD_ChAoS> cabrioleur, i thought it might have came with kooka
[15:19] <poningru_> minus_, do an iwconfig
[15:19] <Paavi2_0> ^sa^: i'm sorry, i have no idea what you could do :(
[15:19] <minus_> poningru_, done
[15:19] <pete2> bazhang: but i dont know how to compile all of that
[15:20] <^sa^> nobody does...
[15:20] <^sa^> i think i'll go back to windos :(
[15:20] <^sa^> at least i can surf wherever i want
[15:20] <cabrioleur> KiD_ChAoS: it should be as dependency. Try "whereis ocrad" in terminal and see if you have it. If not, "sudo install ocrad"
[15:20] <cabrioleur> "sudo apt-get install ocrad"
[15:20] <KiD_ChAoS> ok cabrioleur
[15:20] <cabrioleur> ^sa^: a good idea :-)
[15:21] <Paavi2_0> ^sa^: if you find a way, you should try to disable iwlwifi_rc80211_simple
[15:21] <^sa^> i dont know how. i'm a newbie
[15:21] <chinmay> .net
[15:21] <judgement> anyone in here have worked on a discover station pc? can it be used on a regular pc?
[15:21] <KiD_ChAoS> cabrioleur, when i type 'whereis ocrad' it spits out 'ocrad:' and then thats it
[15:21] <^sa^> go to win anyway. bye and tnx a lot for your help. i'll try next version
[15:21] <^sa^> bye
[15:21] <dooglus> how can I view webcams in ubuntu?
[15:22] <Jack_Sparrow> !enter > ^sa^
[15:22] <dooglus> I had a message from a hot chick saying "watch me naked on my live web cam at >> http://www.bayanbul.net/webcam.exe" but when I try to view it, firefox just asks me if I want to "save or open"
[15:22] <Lycalopex> dooglus: several options vlc is handy for testing at least since its pretty easy to capture vid using it
[15:22] <Jack_Sparrow> dooglus: that is a windows exe file.. they are trying to send you a virus
[15:22] <Paavi2_0> dooglus: "lol"
[15:23] <cabrioleur> KiD_ChAoS: type "sudo apt-get install ocrad"
[15:23] <Lycalopex> ie4linux| dooglus
[15:23] <judgement> dooglus: try to view it w/kino and video4linux
[15:23] <dooglus> Jack_Sparrow: no, she said she wants to see my lovely big <censored>
[15:23] <Torrent> When i install uswsusp, it doesnt find my swap.. what do I do?
[15:23] <Jack_Sparrow> dooglus: enough
[15:23] <bulmer> drgeb-> if you can log on as one user and not as another user, check the /etc/passwd file and see what is the user's log on shell
[15:23] <judgement> there are also webcams in the add/remove
[15:24] <bulmer> drgeb-> also check the users home directory if you have set itup properly
[15:24] <Torrent> whats the name of the swap drive
[15:25] <Jack_Sparrow> Lycalopex: ie4linux   is a fast way to lose all support from people at #Wine... they feel it is in the same catagory as automatix and wont touch it
[15:25] <wols_> Torrent: sudo fdisk -l
[15:25] <wols_> Jack_Sparrow: what do they want one to use for IE then?
[15:25] <drgeb> what do I need to look for in user home directory ?
[15:25] <KiD_ChAoS> cabrioleur, i installed it, but when i restarted kooka it still says binary not found
[15:26] <Jack_Sparrow> wols_: they have some other options, but even their topic says they wont help you if you have used it
[15:26] <cabrioleur> KiD_ChAoS: go to setup and type a proper path to the file.
[15:26] <KiD_ChAoS> cabrioleur, do you know where the path is?
[15:27] <cabrioleur> KiD_ChAoS: the proper path will be displayed when you type "whereis ocrad"
[15:27] <dooglus> if I use wine to run a .exe file, and the file turns out to be a virus, can it cause much damage?
[15:27] <KiD_ChAoS> cabrioleur, ok
[15:27] <cabrioleur> KiD_ChAoS: probably /usr/bin/ocrad
[15:27] <Paavi2_0> dooglus: no
[15:27] <wols_> dooglus: it sometimes can infect your wine
[15:27] <Juhaz> dooglus, yes.
[15:27] <judgement> dooglus: just wine itself
[15:27] <dooglus> hahah.  I got three answers - yes, no, and maybe.  nice!
[15:27] <Orfintain> hi, i'm stuck in 640X480
[15:28] <dundel> .
[15:28] <Paavi2_0> dooglus: i meant not much but some
[15:28] <Jack_Sparrow> dooglus: Not to your ubuntu install but if you have mapped Z drive to your root folder, there are some potential problems
[15:28] <Orfintain> on an laptop
[15:28] <bazhang> pete2: well, from searching it seems that no one has full capabilitiies on that model; not Vista, Not Leopard and not yet Ubuntu--HP has quite good support for Linux generally, so likely will release something in the next few weeks
[15:28] <Dr_willis> dooglus,  in theory a windows executable could remove all your users files.. but that wouldent hurt the system. :) just your home dir.
[15:28] <KiD_ChAoS> ok cabrioleur , it worked but i didn't understand a single word.. do i have to tell it what font im using? or should i scan the page into a paticular format?
[15:29] <lesshaste_> how do I find which ubuntu package has psfig.sty?
[15:29] <wols_> !firxres | Orfintain
[15:29] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about firxres - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[15:29] <shadowhywind> does anyone know of a way to Nuke/wipe a usb harddrive?
[15:29] <Dr_willis> dooglus,  ive used wine to run spyware and other malware to see what it does.
[15:29] <Dr_willis> shadowhywind,  formating it is not good enough?
[15:29] <wols_> lesshaste_: by using packages.ubuntu.com
[15:29] <Juhaz> who cares about the bloody system? that's half an hour reinstall, all your important data is in your home dir
[15:29] <gorilla3d> how do yo load a module into the kernel? modprobe?
[15:29] <LjL> gorilla3d: yes
[15:29] <wols_> shadowhywind: dd if=/dev/urandomg of=/dev/<device node of usb stick>
[15:29] <LjL> with sudo
[15:30] <lesshaste_> wols_, umm..nothing!
[15:30] <cabrioleur> KiD_ChAoS: experiment with the options to get the best results. The rest is a personal preference.
[15:30] <dooglus> Dr_willis: except I have sudo access, so I guess it could do whatever it wanted to really.
[15:30] <KiD_ChAoS> cabrioleur, ok thankyou
[15:30] <Jack_Sparrow> Juhaz: Wine suggests you create a different user with access only to wine
[15:30] <Paavi2_0> dooglus: don't mix sudo and wine, it kills
[15:30] <krim> Is there a way to clean out all "system files" in /home, so if I install Debian I won't have the old config files for Ubuntu left in there?
[15:30] <gorilla3d> LjL, um.. how would I make it fine the module I want to load, keeps saying not found
[15:30] <dundel> oke this is strange, i'm testing my dns server and i got a mirc connection but i can't browse the web :S
[15:30] <y2hh> Question, new user -- I'm using 7.10 (patched), and I'm having issues getting my external display to operate with the nVidia restricted driver enabled.  The built in control panel for multiple monitors doesnt seem to work for me...anyone else with a similar issue or a known fix?
[15:31] <bazhang> pete2: you get that?
[15:31] <wols_> gorilla3d: which module?
[15:31] <LjL> gorilla3d: perhaps you don't have it? :) what module is that.
[15:31] <gorilla3d> a module I compile
[15:31] <gorilla3d> for my webcam
[15:31] <dooglus> krim: you can remove all files that begin with a dot - that's close to what you asked for
[15:31] <gorilla3d> gspca.ko
[15:31] <Azjo> How do i change default depth in ubuntu 7.10? in console im reading a guide that tells me to search for depth but it wont find it
[15:31] <wols_> gorilla3d: NAMES. and what did you do after compiling it?
[15:31] <gorilla3d> wols_: nothing...
[15:31] <cabrioleur> gorilla3d: did you do make install?
[15:31] <lesshaste_> wols_, ah... my mistake..texlive-generic-extra :)
[15:31] <wols_> gorilla3d: you need to install it
[15:32] <Dr_willis> dooglus,  it would proberly ask for the sudo password. :) that would be a red flag. of course that would be an impressive virus.  well acgtually it would be a 'trojan' i guess
[15:32] <gorilla3d> oh pff im a moron
[15:32] <judgement> what do i need to run multiple terminals or koisk?
[15:32] <wols_> gorilla3d: it needs ot end up somewhere in /lib/modules/
[15:32] <judgement> has anyone tried discoverstation?
[15:32] <Azjo> How do i change default depth in ubuntu 7.10? in the console.
[15:32] <krim>  dooglus But will I be able to do that from Ubuntu itself without causing weird problems? Somehow it seems like something would go wrong if I deleted all the 'important' files in /home
[15:32] <pete2> bazhang: yes, i got that
[15:33] <gorilla3d> wols_: rm -f /lib/modules/`uname -r`/kernel/drivers/media/video/gspca.ko
[15:33] <Pici> !fb | Azjo
[15:33] <ubotu> Azjo: Information about changing your framebuffer modes in GRUB can be found at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/FrameBuffer#grub
[15:33] <wols_> gorilla3d: why do you want to delete it?
[15:33] <gorilla3d> wols_: it did that.....
[15:33] <pete2> bazhag ; i think this is solution , http://www.nabble.com/sane-driver-for-hp-laserjet-m1005-mfp-to12469670.html , but i dont know how to compile that :/
[15:33] <wols_> gorilla3d: what did that?
[15:33] <dooglus> krim: you could log in as a different user I guess, so the dot-files aren't in use as you move them around
[15:33] <lesshaste_> I am really impressed by the texlive packages!
[15:33] <lesshaste_> Everything is there
[15:33] <lesshaste_> I love ubuntu :)
[15:33] <dooglus> krim: have the 2nd user su to your main account, then move them
[15:34] <gorilla3d> wols_: make install, but yeah just dump the compiled files in /lib/modules
[15:34] <the> oh no
[15:34]  * lesshaste_ wonders is that is a crime in some states of the US
[15:34] <Azjo> how do i change it when i am already in the desktop? as far as i can understand, that guide is only for boot? :)

[15:34] <Torren2> How do I activate my swap?
[15:34] <bazhang> pete2: it looks like a solution, but not an easy one--probably someone will cobble something together (ending in .deb hopefully) shortly
[15:34] <Pici> Azjo: You want to change the color depth for the desktop? or for the ttys?
[15:34] <wols_> Torren2: do you have swap?
[15:34] <dooglus> Dr_willis: I guess I would have it create an alias for 'sudo' in the user .bashrc and wait for them to start a new shell and run sudo.  that would probably be the easiest way to avoid detection
[15:35] <Dr_willis> Torren2,  'swapon' command - but it shoudl be getting actuvated at boot up if your fstab is right
[15:35] <krim> dooglus: thanks for the tip
[15:35] <the> have you got the playstation 3
[15:35] <Torren2> wols_: Yeah I did, but after I used s2both -resume_device /dev/sda4, my swap is ianctive
[15:35] <Azjo> for the desktop
[15:35] <Torren2> Dr_willis: I tried that, but it says invalid argument.. I typed swapon -a
[15:35] <wols_> Torren2: swapon -a.  How much memory do you have and how much swap do you have?
[15:35] <gorilla3d> wols_: it is install there hm.. /lib/modules/2.6.22-14-generic/ubuntu/media/gspcav1/gspca.ko & /lib/modules/2.6.22-14-generic/kernel/drivers/usb/media/gspca.ko
[15:35] <Pici> Azjo: Are you concerned that its not high enough?
[15:35] <Dr_willis> Torren2,  your fstab entry may be invalid.
[15:36] <Torren2> wols_: 2GB RAM, 4GB SWAP
[15:36] <Pici> the: What do you mean?
[15:36] <the> i can speak german
[15:36] <Pici> !de | the
[15:36] <Azjo> no, its a bug in microsoft VPC 2007
[15:36] <pete2> bazhang: yes, that is .deb option :/
[15:36] <ubotu> the: Deutschsprachige Hilfe fuer Probleme mit Ubuntu, Kubuntu und Edubuntu finden Sie in den Kanaelen #ubuntu-de, #kubuntu-de, #xubuntu-de und #edubuntu-de
[15:36] <wols_> Torren2: what does "free" say
[15:36] <wols_> gorilla3d: so what's the problem now?
[15:36] <Torren2> wols_: It says 0
[15:36] <gorilla3d> wols_: and then sudo modprobe gspca.ko returns "FATAL: Module gspca.ko not found."
[15:36] <Pici> Azjo: A bug that needs to be fixed by changing something in Ubuntu?
[15:36] <wols_> Torren2: swapon /dev/sda4
[15:36] <Azjo> i have a guide which tells me to go console and write sudo nano /etc/X11/xorg.conf and then press ctrl + w and search for depth
[15:36] <Azjo> however, i dont find depth
[15:37] <Ljorring> where do I check the value of LIBGL_ALWAYS_INDIRECT ?
[15:37] <wols_> gorilla3d: depmod -a then try again
[15:37] <the> könnt ihr mich verstehen
[15:37] <Pici> the: not here, /j #ubuntu-de
[15:37] <H4v1s_> Hi! I want to ask what driver should I use with Radeon X1650,  fglrx or radeonhd?  ...I'm running on vesa at the moment...and it's rather slow
[15:37] <Azjo> its supposed to find DefaultDepth
[15:37] <wols_> the: please go to #ubuntu-de
[15:37] <Jack_Sparrow> Azjo: depth is in xorg.. guaranteed
[15:37] <Torren2> wols: It says /dev/sda4 invalid argument
[15:37] <the> könnt ihr mich verstehen
[15:37] <krim> H4v1s_: fglrx, radeonhd isn't ready yet I think
[15:37] <bazhang> pete2: not quite--it's compiling stuff in quite a complicated procedure--if you keep an eye on ubuntuforums and discussion sites, someone will come up with an easier fix
[15:37] <Pici> Azjo: Can you link me to the place where you are reading this?
[15:38] <wols_> Torren2: mkswap /dev/sda4 then try swapon -a again
[15:38] <H4v1s_> krim and is fglrx stable? cause friend told me it locks his PC on boot...
[15:38] <Azjo> http://blogs.msdn.com/mikekol/archive/2007/08/06/making-ubuntu-7-04-work-under-virtual-pc-2007.aspx its for 7.04 though..
[15:38] <Pici> Azjo: Also, can you pastebin your xorg.conf?
[15:38] <Pici> !paste | Azjo
[15:38] <ubotu> Azjo: pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the #ubuntu channel topic)
[15:38] <Torren2> wols_: Okay, it works now :)
[15:38] <Pici> H4v1s_: fglrx are the Official ATI drivers (just repackaged for ubuntu)
[15:39] <pete2> bazhang: ok, tnx m8
[15:39] <bazhang> pete2: the only drivers that apparently work are for Tiger and XP :{
[15:39] <gorilla3d> wols_: same error...
[15:39] <gizmoarena> if anyone needs help, pm me
[15:39] <H4v1s_> Pici, ahh ok, thx very much
[15:39] <krim> H4v1s_: It's as stable as you'll get for now :)
[15:39] <roro_> roro
[15:39] <pete2> bazhang: ok, i try forum. tnx m8
[15:39] <steph_> I've installed gutsy and there is an applet for networking management. When I changed properties (DHCP or anything else) it looks like I need to restart the network daemon. Am I wrong?
[15:39] <wols_> gorilla3d: where exactly is your module. full path
[15:40] <wols_> steph_: what is this "network daemon" you speak of?
[15:40] <Hee_Haw> hi
[15:40] <Delvien> anyone have the eyecandy repos for gutsy ? or a link to the website?

[15:41] <K4k-laptop> Can someone help me find out why my mozilla flash plugin isn't working?
[15:41] <Ljorring> is some components of glx required to get glfrx to work?
[15:41] <Torren2> someone pls help me with uswsusp..
[15:41] <Ljorring> can I remove every glx package?
[15:41] <wols_> gorilla3d: and your modprobe line?
[15:41] <mitchp> the "network daemon" is likely /etc/init.d/networking
[15:41] <gorilla3d> wols_:  sudo modprobe gspca.ko
[15:41] <mitchp> every time i change my network settings i do /etc/init.d/networking restart
[15:41] <wols_> Ljorring: only the fglrx glx
[15:41] <Ljorring> wols_: mkay, ty
[15:41] <bazhang> !flashissues | K4k-laptop
[15:41] <wols_> gorilla3d: modprobe wants a module name, not a filename
[15:41] <mitchp> K4k; use easyubuntu
[15:42] <ubotu> K4k-laptop: The Flash plugin installation is currently broken. This is due to adobe changing the tar file that the package downloads.
[15:42] <K4k-laptop> bazhang: is there a known fix?
[15:42] <bazhang> mitchp: please stop. that is not a good bit of advice and will break your system

[15:43] <bazhang> K4k-laptop: there is a workaround; Jack_Sparrow should be able to tell you (he may not be here)

[15:46] <Orfintain> right i was just looking at that
[15:46] <Orfintain> it's not supposed to have to use that on 7.1
[15:46] <Jack_Sparrow> K4k-laptop: First off.. a warning... It only works for Firefox, not opera and others.  Second, you can have other problems when they do release the real fix
[15:46] <mitchp> easyubuntu hasn't broken anything yet.  I've been using it for over 6 months on various installs.

[15:47] <mitchp> but i understand why not to recommend it in the official channel and i apologize
[15:47] <K4k-laptop> Jack_Sparrow, I am using Firefox and if I do the workaround, is it reversable so I can install the official fix?
[15:47] <stefkoo> :/
[15:47] <stefkoo> somebody CAN HELP me about TOR !!?!?

[15:48] <Pici> CoasterMaster: Its 3rd party, but we'll help you install it.
[15:48] <Jack_Sparrow> K4k-laptop: Without the official fix, I dont know how reversable it will be..
[15:48] <K4k-laptop> stefkoo: I can't imagine why...
[15:48] <Pici> stefkoo: I can't help you then. Don't get impatient because no one is answering you here.
[15:48] <stefkoo> ok.
[15:48] <CoasterMaster> Pici, thanks....just curious if it was 3rd part (already using it, but I was just wondering).....
[15:49] <bazhang> K4k-laptop: haha
[15:49] <K4k-laptop> Jack_Sparrow, hmmm..then any word on the official fix yet?
[15:49] <Jack_Sparrow> K4k-laptop: the only sure way would be a quick backup....  and no we dont know when the official fix will come down
[15:50] <K4k-laptop> Jack_Sparrow, Ok, thanks for the assistance, I'll give Gnash a shot in the meantime

[15:51] <mitchp> steph_; right, thanks.  I believe green means executable?  I'm sure someone here knows.  But the colors signify things about the file, like directories and excecutables
[15:51] <brobostigon> torren2: add your swap to fstab, so that when you reboot its activated.
[15:51] <howard> HI
[15:52] <steph_> oh thanks

[16:11] <brobostigon> i like pidgin, easy to setup, use and very stable in my eperience.
[16:11] <ArsHermetica> Could anyone help me to figure out why I can no longer access my files. I.E. Home folder, pictures etc et all

[16:16] <badiane> is someone able to help me with this
[16:16] <brobostigon> usta: no idea,sorry.
[16:16] <MasterShrek> badiane: i usually add my user to the plugdev and disk groups, maybe give that a try
[16:16] <UstA> brobostigon: thanks
[16:17] <vincenz> Hello
[16:17] <badiane> let me explain what I'm doing an maybe someone may help with a better way
[16:17] <badiane> thanks MasterShrek
[16:17] <badiane> I have install virtualbox
[16:17] <torren3> http://www.nomorepasting.com/getpaste.php?pasteid=8707 <---- Whats wrong with this? My swap doesn't work anymore after boot
[16:17] <badiane> and I'm using a raw partition
[16:17] <vincenz> My harddrive is failnig so I went out and got a new one (along with a case).  Do you recommend I do a non-local install onto the newharddrive while having it externally, or what is the suggested manner of installing onto the new disk
[16:18] <|DrEaMeR|> dd maybe?
[16:18] <badiane> it requires that the regular user has permissions to access the drive
[16:18] <MasterShrek> torren3: try changing the uuid to the actual device name. like /dev/xxxx

[16:20] <vincenz> how do I start an installation ?
[16:20] <vincenz> if I do not wish to use a live cd

[16:20] <ubotu> Ubuntu can be installed in lots of ways. Please see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation for documentation. Problems during install?

[16:21] <vincenz> bazhang: I'm replacing my hd
[16:21] <tomkirby> can anyone help me work out why I'm getting green vertical lines on the edges of text/windows on my screen?
[16:21] <vincenz> got ubuntu on my current one, but it is broken
[16:21] <MasterShrek> Tilllinux: i dont think so, but im not 100% sure
[16:21] <bazhang> vincenz: you want to migrate an existing install to a new hard drive?
[16:21] <Torren2> http://www.nomorepasting.com/getpaste.php?pasteid=8709 <---- MasterShrek, that's my whole fstab
[16:21] <Torren2> MasterShrek: It's /dev/sda4 .. So what do I put there exactly? what is UUID? There's a UUID for my NTFS partitions but they all work fine
[16:21] <pythondasnake> I'm sorry for all the questions.. I just don't know what I am doing... I have two monitors and with xp is appears to be one big monitor but when I boot Ubuntu it is the same screen on both monitors.. How do I change the settings for this ?
[16:22] <qcode> My computer flies after removing compiz...
[16:22] <vincenz> bazhang: no, since the package system is broken (faulty sectors)
[16:22] <qcode> Xgl takes away too many CPU cycles
[16:22] <MasterShrek> Torren2: replace UUID=4350603b-feb3-48fd-ac96-a949304b8837 with /dev/sda4
[16:22] <Tilllinux> pythondasnake: ati or nvidia?
[16:22] <qcode> At time I noticed the CPU peaks 100% for a while
[16:22] <bazhang> vincenz: the minimal install; the alternate, or the live?
[16:22] <MxD> hi guys! I was wondering if someone could help me figure out how to get my nVidia card to work :D
[16:22] <qcode> Xgl bug?
[16:22] <pythondasnake> nvidia
[16:23] <MasterShrek> MxD: sudo apt-get install nvidia-glx-new
[16:23] <vincenz> bazhang: I would prefer not using a cd
[16:23] <ip00n> !nvidia
[16:23] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto

[16:24] <MxD> MasterShrek: the network card doesn't work either :/
[16:24] <vegeta> MasterShrek, thx :)
[16:24] <bazhang> vincenz: from usb key? not sure what you mean--your getting a new hard drive--internal presumably; and you dont want to use the live cd--lost you after that
[16:24] <vincenz> bazhang: nono
[16:24] <vincenz> bazhang: my curreent laptop drive has faulty sectors, so I wish to replace it.  I boug a new one and an enclosure
[16:24] <vincenz> bazhang: I'm in ubuntu right now, I'd like to install ubuntu onto that new hd and the swap it with my current hd
[16:25] <badiane> you would have to first prepare the hard drive
[16:25] <bazhang> vincenz: okay, so you want to install to an external usb hdd attached to your laptop?
[16:25] <badiane> and mount it
[16:25] <badiane> then use debootstrap
[16:25] <vincenz> bazhang: yep
[16:25] <badiane> well if you want to go that route
[16:26] <bazhang> badiane: you want to help out here?
[16:26] <badiane> sure
[16:26] <bazhang> vincenz: listen to badiane :}
[16:26] <badiane> vincenz give me a bit more details about your setup
[16:27] <vincenz> badiane: currently I have a laptop with ubuntu the latest
[16:27] <badiane> ok
[16:27] <JustMe> anyone: please how do you set up a password for root
[16:27] <vincenz> badiane: I'm in it right now, but my hd has some faulty sectors
[16:27] <vincenz> so my package system is screwy
[16:27] <badiane> ok
[16:27] <vincenz> got a new 2.5 disk and an enclosure
[16:27] <vincenz> (which I plan to swap once I can boot from it)
[16:28] <AnsweR> hi
[16:28] <Pici> !tab
[16:28] <ubotu> You can use <tab> for autocompletion of nicknames in IRC, as well as for completion of filenames and programs on the command line.
[16:28] <badiane> ok
[16:28] <badiane> any corruption
[16:28] <vincenz> badiane: on the old drive, yes, some pacages are corrupt
[16:28] <badiane> is any of your data corrupt
[16:29] <vincenz> oh no
[16:29] <vincenz> and I have backups
[16:29] <badiane> ok
[16:29] <vincenz> it's mostly about how to transition
[16:29] <vincenz> without having to download live cd and burn a cd
[16:29] <JustMe> when I installed there were't a prompt for root to type a password, how do i get a password for root
[16:29] <badiane> now you can get a list of your installed packages
[16:29] <korny|UTF-8> hi
[16:29] <brobostigon> !root | justme
[16:29] <ubotu> justme: Do not try to guess the root password, that is impossible. Instead, realise the truth... there is no root password. Then you will see that it is 'sudo' that grants you access and not the root password. Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo
[16:29] <badiane> by doing dpkg --get-selections > selections.`date +%F`
[16:30] <korny|UTF-8> i have a very stupid question: how can i umount a cd in gnome?
[16:30] <vincenz> badiane: oh, I can manually install extra packages after, I do not mind that, my main problem is with how to get a minimal system onto it
[16:30] <badiane> that's cool
[16:30] <Pici> korny|UTF-8: Right click icon on desktop, there should either be an unmount or eject option
[16:30] <badiane> the reason for the selection is that you can have your old system back from that list
[16:30] <vincenz> but thx for tip
[16:30] <dundel> help please, i configured my dns propally now but i can't browse when i'm on a diffrent subnet, i looked on the net and i found the solution but i don't know what i got to do with it it says that is need to do this allow-recursion { localnets; 192.168.0/16; };
[16:30] <badiane> now
[16:31] <JustMe> yeah
[16:31] <badiane> as long as you can see the external drive
[16:31] <badiane> have you decided how you want to partition it
[16:31] <badiane> or do you want to keep the same partition
[16:31] <vincenz> most likely like my current one
[16:31] <korny|UTF-8> Pici, Desktop ^^ Thanks ^^ tooo idiot proof ;)
[16:31] <JustMe> thanks
[16:31] <preaction> dundel, recursive lookups means that your DNS will also look up names that it is not the authority for. you want to enable them for your local networks. #bind has more information
[16:31] <badiane> ok there is a package called sfdisk
[16:31] <badiane> check to see of you have it
[16:31] <Pici> !enter | badiane
[16:31] <ubotu> badiane: Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation!
[16:32] <badiane> ok
[16:32] <vincenz> badiane: we can pm
[16:32] <badiane> sure.
[16:32] <badiane> thanks ubotu
[16:32] <jjjh> Q: pretty new user, my install is working but I want to know the proper way to login -- the username i created is in root, i want to remove it from root and just use root for installs and whatnot, is that what i do?
[16:32] <jjjh> or should i create a new user completley?
[16:33] <Pici> !sudo | jjjh
[16:33] <ubotu> jjjh: sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for all information.
[16:33] <jjjh> no but i mean with the default user i craeted on install
[16:33] <jjjh> is that safe to use?
[16:33] <jjjh> because it shows it in the root group
[16:33] <MadRaven> hi all
[16:33] <Pici> jjjh: The admin group you mean?
[16:34] <MadRaven> anybody in here keen with emacs ?
[16:34] <jjjh> no says root
[16:34] <vishal> hi, I removed the bottom panel and i want my windows to maximize using that bottom space, anyone know how i can do that?
[16:34] <Pici> jjjh: Are you using Ubuntu?
[16:34] <jjjh> user settings | group settings (im in root group)
[16:34] <jjjh> yes 7.10
[16:34] <dundel> hmm oke preaction i will check it out, thanks
[16:34] <Pici> jjjh: Are you logged in as root?
[16:34] <jjjh> oh i see
[16:34] <jjjh> no
[16:34] <dundel> but do you know it which file i need to put it?
[16:34] <jjjh> i logged in as the user i created
[16:34] <Pici> jjjh: oh you see what?
[16:35] <kane77> is there anything like synergy, but that would allow files to be dragged between computers?
[16:35] <jjjh> i just wanted to make sure thats the user i should be using
[16:35] <vincenz> badiane: if you do not identify I will not be able to see your PM
[16:35] <jjjh> or should i create a new one
[16:35] <mitchp> kane77: what's synergy?
[16:35] <badiane> how do I identify?
[16:35] <PaulEU> helo!
[16:35] <Pici> jjjh: Did you add your user to root's group?
[16:35] <Pici> !register | badiane
[16:35] <ubotu> badiane: By default, only registered users can send private messages - Information about  registering your Freenode nick can be found at http://freenode.net/faq.shtml#userregistration
[16:35] <jjjh> pici no
[16:36] <PaulEU> I have question: Actually I have 7.04 and I
[16:36] <korny|UTF-8> kane77: samba?
[16:36] <jjjh> i just left it default, however it installed it
[16:36] <mitchp> korny|UTF-8: that's what i was going to suggest
[16:36] <PaulEU> I'd like upgrade to 7.10
[16:36] <Pici> jjjh: Can you pastebin the output of `groups` on a terminal?
[16:36] <vincenz> badiane: so I plug it in (I have no idea why USB enclosures have two plugs on one side, I plugged them both in), but nothing is mounted
[16:36] <badiane> ok
[16:36] <kane77> mitchp, a cool program that allows you to use multiple computers just like you had multiple screens..
[16:36] <Pici> !paste | jjjh
[16:36] <ubotu> jjjh: pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the #ubuntu channel topic)
[16:36] <MxD> hey all!! could someone help me get my integrated ethernet card working?
[16:36] <PaulEU> I inserted CD (shippit) and I'm running from this FAQ: http://www.ubuntugeek.com/upgrade-ubuntu-704-feisty-fawn-to-ubuntu-710-gutsy-gibbon.html
[16:36] <korny|UTF-8> mitchp: synergry distributes your mouse an keyboard via ip
[16:37] <PaulEU> and Question is: why it doesn't get packages from CD?
[16:37] <Pici> PaulEU: An alternate CD?
[16:37] <mitchp> kane77: well, if you set up samba on both of them, then you could drag a file into it from one screen, and you'd have it on the other.  You wouldnt' be able to, say, drag it directly from one screen to the next
[16:37] <mitchp> wow that sounds awesome
[16:37] <jjjh> nm i got it pici
[16:37] <jjjh> im not root
[16:37] <PaulEU> Pici: no, I have actually CD ubuntu desktop
[16:37] <Pici> jjjh: You shouldnt be.
[16:37] <PaulEU> Pici: its possible ?
[16:38] <Pici> PaulEU: The Desktop CD cannot be used for upgrades sadly.
[16:38] <PaulEU> Pici: why?
[16:38] <Pici> jjjh: You should be in the admin group, that way you can use sudo to gain root acces, but you will not always have root access.
[16:38] <kane77> korny|UTF-8, yes, I have samba working, but something like that (just dragging files to other computer) would be extra cool :)
[16:38] <vincenz> badiane: how do I find where it is?
[16:38] <Delvien> When I run gnome-system-monitor i get the following error: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/49175/ (repeat again, hopefully someone has seen this )
[16:38] <badiane> if it isn't mounted automatically it doesn't mean that it's not seen by the os.  type fdisk -l and see what that shows
[16:38] <vincenz> aha
[16:38] <vincenz> sdc
[16:39] <mitchp> kane77: there was a program that excecuted a command when you dragged your mouse to the edge of the screen (don't remember what it was called).  you could use that to send the file via samba
[16:39] <PaulEU> Pici: actually synaptic is downloading packages (31 from 1221 packages) Can I must stop download it?
[16:39] <Pici> PaulEU: Because in order to make it a LiveCD and an install CD, changes had to be made to the structure of the disk which precludes it from being used to upgrade.
[16:39] <badiane> cool and you shouldn't have to plug both cables, it may be a slave or uplink
[16:39] <hellboy195> hi, would somebody help me to interpret a smartctl stats overview? http://paste.pocoo.org/show/16850/
[16:39] <Pici> PaulEU: You dont have to stop, but if you dont have broadband, its going to take a long time.
[16:39] <badiane> check to see if you have sfdisk installed
[16:39] <vincenz> I do
[16:39] <Pici> PaulEU: But its not using that CD at all right now.
[16:39] <mitchp> kane77: it would still be a bit clunky, because you'd have to let it go at the edge, and pick it up again from your other desktop, but it would definitely be closer
[16:40] <PaulEU> Pici: oh, I understand.. Now It will take about 8h
[16:40] <kane77> mitchp, heh, yeah... but it's not a bad idea
[16:40] <Guza> hi
[16:40] <PaulEU> Pici: thx for help, on my local channel # nobody know about it
[16:40] <Guza> how can i make install cd from my running kubuntu
[16:41] <Guza> to be same as my kubuntu
[16:41] <Guza> :)
[16:41] <skullhead> hello im using crossover to run counterstrike source but have no audio in menu or in game dos any one know what i can do?
[16:41] <bundagan> i just upgraded to Gusty, i am noticing that python and pygtk seem unstable
[16:41] <bundagan> is apt-get update; upgrade advised?
[16:41] <Guza> does someone know
[16:41] <badiane> ok now  sfdisk -d <your original drive>  > sdc.out
[16:41] <vincenz> badiane: I do have sfdisk installed, if you would like, I made a channel #badiane, less spammy
[16:42] <Javid> If I wanted to remove Ubuntu from a dualbooting system, how would I restore the bootloader? I don't have a CD drive I can stick a windows cd in and fixmbr from, is it possible to keep grub?
[16:42] <brobostigon> bundagan: !apt
[16:42] <vincenz> badiane: I do not wish for an exact copy tho, since my original disk has a windows partition :D
[16:42] <Delvien> lol gnash flash player locks up my computer .. :(
[16:42] <mitchp> bundagan: you should be upgrading regularly anyway.  apt-get upgrade isn't any different from the icon that shows up in gnome.  however i dont know if it does an update first or not (I would think so)
[16:42] <badiane> hold on before you do that I have to aks you if the drives are of the same size
[16:43] <badiane> do you want to keep that windows partition
[16:43] <PaulEU> Pici: ups.. I forgot one question: can I pause downloading packages for upgrade?
[16:43] <vincenz> badiane: yes, but I don't want an exact copy, where can I find that textual gui you get at install to setup the drive?
[16:43] <mitchp> bundagan: and i could be wrong, but i think it's always a good idea to do a quick upgrade if something's misbehaving
[16:43] <Tilllinux> you won't believe it! heroes of might and magic V is running with wine very nicely... the only thing that doesn't work is the rotation by mouse, but that work's with the keyboard ;)
[16:43] <guipenguin> Hello... has anyone else had a probem getting flash to work in firefox? I couldn't get Adobe flash to work.. so I isntalled that open source flash player through firefox..... bad idea, it's complete crap. How do I go about uninstalling it?
[16:43] <Pici> PaulEU: If you cancel in the middle of the download process (not the install process) it should left off from where it began.
[16:43] <badiane> I use cfdisk
[16:44] <badiane> try cfdisk
[16:44] <PaulEU> Pici: ok, thx

[16:46] <Pici> skullhead: Crossover is third party, you should have support through them.
[16:46] <vincenz> badiane: three primaries?
[16:46] <brobostigon> schlonzo: system/admin/login window
[16:47] <zobban> hi there, i had a user named mike now when i deleted him i can not delet his files i deleted they went to .baschcr somthing now iwant to delete all his files they are till there it says i dont have the permission to do that i am admin of my pc
[16:47] <brobostigon> maybe?
[16:47] <Pici> zobban: how did you delete his user?
[16:47] <badiane> ok is cfdisk the kind of tool you were looking for
[16:47] <vincenz> badiane: it seems fine :)
[16:47] <zobban> system>admin>users from GUI
[16:47] <vincenz> badiane: three primaries is ine, right? with my swap as last
[16:47] <badiane> ok do you want to use lvm
[16:48] <schlonzo> there are the sessions i already have,but how can i add?
[16:48] <badiane> I like to use one primary for boot and use one large logical for lvm
[16:48] <vincenz> lvm?
[16:48] <qcode> It's 36 freezing degrees outside...
[16:48] <bundagan> looks like my problems are in the new c-types based pyopengl
[16:48] <Pici> zobban: Are you using sudo when you try to delete the directory?
[16:48] <qcode> freezing my balls
[16:48] <Pici> !offtopic | qcode
[16:48] <bazhang> qcode: offtopic
[16:48] <ubotu> qcode: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome!
[16:48] <vincenz> badiane: I'm not certain what lvm is.  I just want a 10GB for /, then the rest -2GB for /home and then 2GB for swap
[16:48] <VSpike> zobban, "sudo rm -rf /home/mike" .. be careful to get the right path as this will delete what you tell it
[16:48] <Tilllinux> how is the software (some kde program) called, that's able to convert mdfs/... to iso?
[16:49] <zobban> nope i am from GUI i open his mapp directory i click to remove them it says i dont have permissions
[16:49] <qcode> oooppps.. sorry
[16:49] <qcode> couldn't help it
[16:49] <badiane> that give me a lot of flexibility.  LVM is logical volume management.  It allows you to use only the space that you need and if you want to create a new partition it's ok and if you want to extend your partition it's ok too
