[00:00] <erikk71> can some help me im trying to install a theme
[00:00] <Stargazer989> How do i close my topic on the forums ? :S
[00:00] <mobi-sheep> MrPiracy: Icic. So you're trying to be on latest version of everything even although they may be not stable?  Firefox 3.5 came out.  Look at it.  There are a security vulnerabilities so it was forced to 3.5.1 when Firefox 3.0 would be sufficient.
[00:00] <moymoy> !askthebot | xcdfgkjhgcv
[00:01] <mobi-sheep> MrPiracy: A better mindset would be waiting out a bit... Let the suckers experience all the problems.  Xbox360 have 7 versions or something like that (internally design and such). :)
[00:02] <jvm> hi. i want my notebook to load my usual network configuration _before_ logging into my user account, so i entered the data into /etc/network/interfaces; yet, the static ipv4 configuration i entered is not shown with ifconfig after running '/etc/init.d/networking restart'. did i overlook something?
[00:02] <ascheel> jvm: you need to disable network-manager
[00:02] <rz> how do i open up a device manager in linux
[00:03] <jvm> ascheel, will i still be able to change my network configuration easily after user login, then?
[00:03] <ascheel> jvm, no
[00:03] <jvm> ascheel, is there no other solution to apply a 'default profile', that's in effect even before login?
[00:03] <ascheel> jvm, as far as I know, you either handle them manually through the OS or you wait for gnome to boot and manage it with the network-manager.  I COULD be wrong, though.
[00:04] <jvm> okay.
[00:04] <ascheel> jvm, if there is I don't know it, but there very well could be.
[00:04] <jvm> how would i disable the network-manager?
[00:05] <ascheel> jvm, System => Preferences => Startup Programs
[00:05] <tonii> what's a good Winamp clone for Gnome?
[00:05] <mOrO^> tonii: VLC, hands down
[00:06] <jvm> thank you ascheel.
[00:06] <th0r> tonii: audacious
[00:06] <tonii> mOrO^: VLC is only good for video, in my opnion.
[00:06] <tonii> th0r: I'll try that one
[00:07] <Bob_Dole> VLC plays everything.. including audio. But it's feature lacking.
[00:07] <mobi-sheep> !player | tonii
[00:07] <moymoy> tonii: mOrO^: and mplayer's even better than VLC at video.. so i don't know where vlc stands anymore
[00:07] <ethereality> Where do I go to read about running processes in the background in the terminal by appending '&' to the command?
[00:07] <mOrO^> moymoy: it just plays everything I throw at it. Just my opinion.
[00:07] <mobi-sheep> ethereality: At end of the command, eg firefox &
[00:08] <tonii> thanks mobi-sheep
[00:08] <ethereality> mobi-sheep: after that the terminal spits out a number; what does that mean, etc? Is there a manual I can read?
[00:08] <tonii> hm, for XMMS2 do I need the old xmms binaries?
[00:08] <mobi-sheep> ethereality: What number?
[00:08] <mb_again_> etherreality : man bash-builtins has some stuff about job control
[00:09] <mobi-sheep> tonii: I like Banshee. FYI.
[00:09] <moymoy> mOrO^: have you tried segment linked videos with ordered chapters? *shakes head* i've been waiting for them to meet the matroska standard.. but noooooo.. and it gets with distorted images and pixels when seeking
[00:09] <th0r> tonii: xmms2 is a completely different animal from xmms, the old xmms became audacious
[00:09] <tonii> th0r: ahh
[00:09] <ethereality> mobi-sheep: it says "[1] 4444" and this time "[1] 4537"
[00:09] <tonii> mobi-sheep: ok :)
[00:10] <th0r> tonii: take a look at gmusicbrowser...when xmms transformed I moved to gmusicbrowser
[00:10] <ethereality> thanks for the notice mb_again_
[00:10] <rz> !ati
[00:10] <mobi-sheep> ethereality: I think that's just process job numbers.  No need to read manual for that.  Install htop and run htop in the terminal. You'll see a list of processing tasks.  It come with colors too. :)
[00:10] <tonii> th0r: I'll try audacious first. :)
[00:11] <RobotCow> is a newer kernel available through proprosed updates?
[00:11] <ethereality> mobi-sheep: Why htop? Is it wrong to use "top"?
[00:11] <RobotCow> 2.6.29 perhaps?
[00:11] <mobi-sheep> ethereality: There are no right or wrong.  Mostly people's preferences.
[00:11] <danny7210> Hello!, I am having sound problems on ubuntu 9.04, can you please help me. http://pastebin.com/m5acf924f
[00:12] <Bob_Dole> Matrox is still around? I have a few Matrox cards with 4MB RAM on them
[00:12] <RobotCow> ethereality, yeah, the main issue is that you cant scroll to see all the processes. of course you can sort, but others have a nicer ui.
[00:13] <RobotCow> with graphs to show usage
[00:13] <ascheel> ethereality: just try 'htop'.  You'll never touch 'top' again.
[00:13] <japanfred> hey all, anyone using a TV (full hd) dvi->hdmi on linux and getting dodgey looking fonts:
[00:14] <jvm> ascheel, system->preferences affects my own user, but only starting from the time ive logged in, or not?
[00:14] <moymoy> japanfred: you can adjust how the fonts are rendered
[00:14] <jvm> it's a gnome thing.
[00:14] <danny7210> I am having sound problems on ubuntu 9.04, can you please help me.Here are my list of processes  http://pastebin.com/m5acf924f
[00:14] <ascheel> jvm, that's correct.  Only after you've logged in
[00:14] <japanfred> moymoy, where abouts? sorry if im being really noobish, but on windows XP, it all renders fine at 1080p
[00:14] <Apollo2366> Yesterday I came in here with a sound problem. After the initial login screen, there was no sound whatsoever. I've recently discovered that reloading the alsa drivers with sudo alsa force-reload restores sound until I reboot. My question is, aside from reloading every time I boot, is there a way to fix this?
[00:15] <happy> danny7210: the list is pretty useless
[00:15] <damien> has anyone installed firefox 3.5.1 using ubuntuzilla?
[00:15] <erikk71> can someone help me with installing new desktop theme
[00:15] <MrPiracy> mobi-sheep: u still there?
[00:15] <damien> i have no idea where it is looking for plugins
[00:15] <damien> anyone know how i can find out?
[00:15] <mobi-sheep> MrPiracy: Ya.  You left before I could tell you something. :o
[00:15] <mobi-sheep> MrPiracy: Anyway, what's up?
[00:15] <happy> danny7210: more info would help though. Did the sound ever work?
[00:15] <danny7210> happy: Well ..... some people might think I have two soundcards .....
[00:15] <jvm> ascheel, then how does deactivating network-manager there change anything about my "/etc/init.d/networking restart does not apply /etc/network/interfaces settings" problem?
[00:16] <VCoolio> damien: in opt/firefox/plugins ? (guess)
[00:16] <danny7210> happy: Sound works just goes on and off. And it only works for 1 process
[00:16] <BUG> hello all
[00:16] <jvm> i tried it before logging in.
[00:16] <moymoy> japanfred: right click the desktop -> click `change background` -> when the window pops up, click `fonts` and there, you can choose how they're rendered.. you can even click details for more options
[00:16] <ethereality> 'k, so I just append & and don't worry about the number?
[00:16] <ascheel> jvm: when you log in, it overwrites the changes you've made to /etc/network/interfaces
[00:16] <MrPiracy> mobi-sheep: what was that u were going to say?
[00:16] <mobi-sheep> ethereality: That's the idea. You can kill the processes by its name or its job numbers.  That's all it is useful for. :)
[00:16] <happy> danny7210: hm.. maybe pulse audio is having problems
[00:16] <erikk71> hello
[00:17] <mobi-sheep> MrPiracy: Oh, to install irssi and learn about TTYs that way you can connect back to here if you lost your X screen.
[00:17] <jvm> ascheel, i set up my static network config in a console terminal before logging into my user account.
[00:17] <danny7210> happy: Sorry I am quite new at linux, I am a windows guru. Also after this Ill ask for help, my laptop wont install it says an error
[00:17] <jvm> ascheel, yet ifconfig didnt show the changes i expected.
[00:17] <ascheel> jvm, but when you logged into your account, the network-manager handles things its own way
[00:18] <japanfred> moymoy, thanks! having a play with all the settings now :)
[00:18] <erikk71> can someone help
[00:18] <johnzorn> is there a way of resetting the sound drivers, my sound stops working whenever I leave my computer for a while and come back. I always have to reboot...
[00:18] <erikk71> with installing new theme
[00:18] <ascheel> jvm, and if you haven't, try doing this:  /etc/init.d/networking restart
[00:18] <VCoolio> erikk71: what error do you get on installing what kind of theme?
[00:18] <jvm> ascheel, i didnt login yet at the time i came here and started complaining ;)
[00:18] <erikk71> im on xfce
[00:18] <damien> VCoolio: it's not in /opt/firefox/plugins
[00:18] <jvm> and i ran the init script.
[00:19] <jvm> after changing the interfaces file
[00:19] <damien> i've tried ~/.mozilla/plugins too
[00:19] <ascheel> jvm, so you made changes to the interfaces file and the changes didn't take immediately?  Is that what you're saying?
[00:19] <danny7210> happy: have any idea?
[00:19] <erikk71> i just cant figure out how to add the theme
[00:19] <MrPiracy> mobi-sheep: wasnt necessary, it works fine now .... even SL
[00:19] <MrPiracy> mobi-sheep: now i can just jump to the next problem in the queue hehehe
[00:19] <VCoolio> erikk71: sorry, know nothing about xfce
[00:19] <happy> danny7210: sorry I left
[00:19] <mobi-sheep> MrPiracy: :(
[00:19] <erikk71> an xubuntu room is dead
[00:19] <danny7210> happy: its ok
[00:20] <happy> danny7210: have you tried the sound troubleshooting guide?
[00:20] <MrPiracy> mobi-sheep: oh and btw, SL runs a lot faster in jaunty than on Win7
[00:20] <happy> !sound | danny7210
[00:20] <erikk71> ill repeat in xubuntu till someone answers
[00:20] <jvm> ascheel, i started up the computer, changed to a console, did _not_ log into gnome, modified the interfaces file with vim, ran '/etc/init.d/networking restart; ifconfig eth0' and the configuration i entered in the interfaces file was not applied yet.
[00:20] <MrPiracy> mobi-sheep: do u know anything about sound?
[00:20] <ethereality> mobi-sheep: Cool! So do I type "kill 4444"?
[00:20] <mobi-sheep> MrPiracy: I never tried Win7.  Did you know that Microsoft opened a retail store next to Apple store?  Fail. :)
[00:21] <mobi-sheep> MrPiracy: Err, just ask the real question.
[00:21] <ascheel> jvm, not sure.  Sorry man
[00:21] <erikk71> i guess everyone here uses gnome
[00:21] <jvm> ascheel, thanks anyway.
[00:21] <danny7210> happy: My sound works it goes on and off and I have to turn my logitech z500 almost full volume to hear it
[00:21] <pluxii> mrpiracy: hahahahahahha lovely
[00:21] <MrPiracy> mobi-sheep: Win7 is neat ... i got the final version leaked last week
[00:21] <jvm> good night everyone.
[00:21] <mobi-sheep> ethereality: I don't know.  I use htop to kill process number.  I'll look it up.
[00:21] <MrPiracy> pluxii: ????
[00:22] <forester> Hi all, I have a machine that I would like to run ubuntu on but without a monitor, keyboard, and mouse. I would just like to connect to it using ssh -X or no-machine. But how can I configure it so that it can reboot without these peripherals (e.g., monitor)?
[00:22] <mobi-sheep> ethereality: Also, "man kill" to get manual and read.
[00:22] <pluxii> MrPiracy: about the windows store vs the apple store
[00:22] <happy> danny7210: I unforunatally do not know much about sound
[00:22] <danny7210> happy: Its ok, I will ask the forum
[00:22] <ascheel> forester: 2 ways.  Log in via ssh and issue a 'reboot' command, or you can handle it in the cron
[00:22] <danny7210> happy: I have another issue bigger than this one though, let me start up my laptop
[00:22] <VCoolio> ethereality: kill <pidnr> or kill -9 <pidnr> to force quit; pkill <name>  or killall <appname> to kill all instances of an app
[00:23] <forester> ascheel, I've tried this but it hangs when it can't find a monitor.
[00:23] <mobi-sheep> ethereality: Looks like it.  kill 4444
[00:23] <MrPiracy> mobi-sheep: ok, i got two sound cards here, one USB and the other one built in. I like my speakers connected to the USB one and the onboard front side plugs for communication software. Both of the cards were detected in ubuntu and i can even hear sound from the earphones, but the front jack mic isnt working.
[00:23] <dmitri> hellooooooooo
[00:23] <mobi-sheep> ethereality: Or use htop. :)
[00:24] <ascheel> forester: the only way I was able to handle that was to disable gdm (the GUI) and splash screens, etc.  Do you NEED to use the GUI (X-Windows, etc)?
[00:24] <hawkie> hey guys, i am having trouble with wine, in ubuntu 9.04, installed through wget sudo, installation was complete without error. When starting the wine config from menu, nothing happends and when starting winecfg in console it says /home/user/.wine is not a directory
[00:24] <ethereality> Cool, thanks! :)
[00:24] <MrPiracy> mobi-sheep: i installed skype and it is working fine, but when i try to set ALC mic, it freezes
[00:24] <tonii> audacious was horrible :|
[00:24] <mobi-sheep> MrPiracy: Don't USB speakers use it for power and there are separate audio cord for that?
[00:24] <mOrO^> tonii: hehehe
[00:25] <forester> ascheel, yes I'd like to see gnome when I use ssh -X or nomachine. Is that what you're asking?
[00:25] <danny7210> hawkie - Can I recommend adding wine from synaptic package manager
[00:25] <mobi-sheep> tonii: Now, Banshee? :)
[00:25] <tonii> I'll certainly try it :P
[00:25] <mobi-sheep> !sound | MrPiracy
[00:25] <MrPiracy> mobi-sheep: they're all listed in the drop down menu. audio out is working fine
[00:25] <hawkie> danny7219
[00:25] <mOrO^> tonii: ever tried Amarok?
[00:25] <ascheel> forester: sorry, then for that i can't help you.  It might be able to be done, but I don't know how.  I use mine as a purely headless and CLI machine only
[00:25] <hawkie> i tried that, same result.
[00:25] <th0r> tonii: now you know why I switched to gmusicbrowser
[00:25] <Zabadda> i just installed crunchbang on a HDD via my new ESATA HDD dock and on the install it let me choose the ESATA to install to and it all went fine, then i rebooted and my main HDD had the error 21 grub error, why would it do that if i didnt install to my main HDD?
[00:25] <pepee> hello ppl
[00:25] <dmitri> hey i'm a nea user of ubuntu and i don't know how to install tk-dev packages
[00:25] <mobi-sheep> MrPiracy: Also, you can run the command --> alsamixer --> if that help.  Set all bars to high and if you see any gray/blue 'm' on it.  Press 'm' to unmute.
[00:25] <moymoy> forester: you won't be able to see gnome by using ssh -X .. but what that does is launch applications with the GUI displayed on your local X display
[00:25] <danny7210> hawkie - What version of wine did you install
[00:26] <forester> ascheel, thanks for your help.
[00:26] <dmitri> could you help me please
[00:26] <MrPiracy> mobi-sheep: audio out is fine ... out of the box ;)
[00:26] <tonii> th0r :D
[00:26] <joejc> i need a super key sticker

[00:26] <pepee> i've compiled and installed a driver for my wifi, and now i wanna go back to the one that came with ubuntu
[00:26] <forester> moymoy, yes I see you're right. But with nomachine I would.
[00:26] <pepee> how can i do that?
[00:26] <danny7210> Hawkie - Try this, I guarantee  it will work
[00:26] <ubuntuovato> pepee  buenas
[00:26] <mobi-sheep> MrPiracy: You even could toggle something for mic to be speaker or something.  I can't work with sounds.  Next. :3
[00:26] <pepee> hola ubuntuovato
[00:27] <tonii> mOrO^: yes, and I don't like it as it cannot use my usb-drive as "library"
[00:27] <danny7210> hawkie - go to System>Administrator>Software Sources
[00:27] <MrPiracy> mobi-sheep: there's a trick in windows to get it working, after installing the proper drivers i have to go to settings and disable front jack detecion. i dont see this option in linux
[00:27] <pepee> the driver i compiled is rt73usb
[00:27] <danny7210> hawkie- tell me when your there
[00:27] <mOrO^> tonii: did you say you did try VLC?
[00:27] <VCoolio> dmitri: type "sudo apt-get install tk-dev" in terminal or open system > administration > synaptic and find tk-dev
[00:27] <mobi-sheep> MrPiracy: Use alsamixer.  You can mute / toggle on certain things.
[00:27] <hawkie> danny7210 i am there
[00:27] <ubuntuovato> pepee como puedo configurar amule para que vaya más rápdidop?
[00:27] <danny7210> hawkie - ok

[00:27] <dmitri> thanks
[00:27] <pepee> ubuntuovato, preguntale a ellos xD
[00:28] <tonii> mOrO^: I don't like VLC for Audio. the UI is not to my liking :)
[00:28] <th0r> tonii: gmb can use the usb drive, and will rescan and update every time it is plugged in
[00:28] <pepee> ubuntuovato, sos duro vos, eh?

[00:30] <mobi-sheep> happy: I see. :)
[00:30] <hawkie> danny7219 9.04
[00:30] <th0r> pepee: you should be able to uninstall the one you compiled with 'make uninstall', assuming you kept the folder after installing
[00:31] <nsadmin> pepee: it's possible you overwrote it; not a problem, just reinstall the kernel again
[00:31] <danny7210> hawkie - are you still in software sources?
[00:31] <pepee> ok, thank you very much
[00:31] <nsadmin> but which driver is it?
[00:31] <Mikau> hi guys
[00:31] <pepee> rt73usb
[00:31] <danny7210> hawkie - if so go to Third Party>Add : deb http://wine.budgetdedicated.com/apt jaunty main #WineHQ - Ubuntu 9.04 "Jaunty Jackalope"
[00:31] <imperfect-> Anyone know what I can to make SATA performance stop sucking?
[00:31] <hawkie> danny7210 yeah i wont add the line
[00:31] <pepee> but i think that is the solution
[00:31] <mobi-sheep> pepee: Have you see wireless documentation? I'll trigger it.
[00:31] <mobi-sheep> !wireless | pepee
[00:31] <danny7210> hawkie - try that line i gave above
[00:32] <dmitri> Vcoolio : when i type "sudo apt-get install tk-dev" he returns an error : unable to lock the administration directory ...
[00:32] <th0r> imperfect-: get her a real job?
[00:32] <Mikau> does anyone know "Satux"?
[00:32] <pepee> to uninstall the current driver and reinstall the kernel
[00:32] <hawkie> danny7210 its done
[00:32] <nsadmin> pepee: ok so you have to find out where rt73usb came from
[00:32] <imperfect-> th0r: I'd get her a job if the sata performance didn't suck so horrible.
[00:32] <pepee> mobi-sheep, really, wasn't me ho did that what i'm telling
[00:32] <VCoolio> dmitri: do you have synaptic also open?
[00:32] <imperfect-> It's really riduculous
[00:32] <pepee> i'm trying to help some other
[00:32] <danny7210> hawkie - ok
[00:33] <nsadmin> more often than not, it will probably be in the kernel... but it makes sense to find out for sure before taking action
[00:33] <danny7210> hawkie - right click this link : http://wine.budgetdedicated.com/apt/Scott%20Ritchie.gpg [SAVE/AS]
[00:33] <pepee> well, bye, and, again, thanks guys
[00:33] <danny7210> hawkie - right click save doesnt work in irc
[00:33] <rz> !ati
[00:33] <danny7210> hawkie - go to this site : http://www.winehq.org/download/deb
[00:33] <rz> !aticonfig
[00:34] <danny7210> hawkie - then go down to the section Trusting the WineHQ APT Repository
[00:34] <hawkie> danny7210 done. ive got the gpg file
[00:34] <th0r> imperfect-: found several ubuntu forum threads about improving sata performance
[00:34] <dmitri> Vcoolio: i've tried to install from synaptic but after that i don't know what is the emplacement of the application
[00:34] <dmitri> where can it be located
[00:34] <tonii> mobi-sheep: Banshee seems to be nice
[00:34] <danny7210> did you add it Authentication in Software Sources?
[00:35] <danny7210> hawkie - did you add it Authentication in Software Sources?
[00:35] <hawkie> danny7210 ok ive added authentication
[00:35] <mobi-sheep> tonii: Oooo Did I win something? :)
[00:35] <tonii> mobi-sheep: ehm, no. not really no.
[00:35] <mobi-sheep> tonii: You can toggle on/off the notifications in the settings too.
[00:35] <tonii> ^_^
[00:35] <danny7210> hawkie- ok, now go to System>Administration> Synaptic Package Manager
[00:35] <VCoolio> dmitri: what is it exactly? I don't know; the starter should be in /usr/bin or in the menus, but since it is a -dev package I'm not sure. You asked how to install; I don't know what to do with it :)
[00:35] <UnderSampled> Does anyone here know much about ddrescue?
[00:35] <danny7210> hawkie - Once there click reload
[00:36] <pluxii> how would i go about installing a .bin file?
[00:36] <danny7210> hawkie - then just search wine and install it
[00:36] <mobi-sheep> UnderSampled: Ask the real question.
[00:36] <happy> pluxii: wht is it called?
[00:36] <UnderSampled> I just want to know if I am doing it right
[00:36] <mobi-sheep> pluxii: chmod +x SillyEgg.bin && sudo ./SillyEgg.bin
[00:37] <hawkie> danny7210 ok its installing
[00:37] <pluxii> happy it is PlaneShift-v0.4.03-x86.bin
[00:37] <danny7210> hawkie - good.
[00:38] <happy> pluxii: do what mobi-sheep said
[00:38] <mobi-sheep> pluxii: Hold.
[00:38] <hawkie> danny7210 got error: E: ttf-mscorefonts-installer: subprocess post-installation script returned error exit status 1
[00:38] <pluxii> mobi-sheep: held
[00:38] <dmitri> vcoolio : you know firsltly i've tried to install amsn and i have a file that is  amsn.tar.bz2  and i don't know how to install it
[00:38] <danny7210> hawkie - I never heard that before. Hang on
[00:39] <mobi-sheep> pluxii: You want to look for deb or PPA first.  Installing from script generally leads to problems.
[00:39] <schirpich> I need some help, I'm running kde and when I try to connect to a samba share via dolphin it doesn't ever prompt me for the username and password.  does dolphin save its own passwords?  Of course this has been working perfectly fine up until this morning
[00:39] <pluxii> mobi-sheep: ok thanks
[00:39] <dmitri> vcoolio : and in the install file it is saying that i need to have packages installed like tk-dev
[00:39] <mobi-sheep> pluxii: Go ahead and install it.  You should be *OKAY*
[00:39] <danny7210> hawkie - Go to Applications>Accessories> Terminal
[00:39] <UnderSampled> I used ddrescue -b 2048 /media/cdrom cdimage ~/ddrescueLog
[00:40] <VCoolio> dmitri: that's an archiving format; extract and probably compile; but check for a repository first
[00:40] <danny7210> hawkie - and type sudo defoma-reconfigure -f
[00:40] <happy> schirpich: it saves it ntil you logout as far as I can tell
[00:40] <pluxii> i know the source is good, the file is fine, it's the planeshift mmo
[00:40] <VCoolio> dmitri: you have tk-dev now, so that's ok
[00:40] <happy> schirpich: It would never save it on the hdd without kwallet
[00:40] <dmitri> i don't find it :D
[00:40] <dmitri> vcoolio : i don't find it :D
[00:40] <mobi-sheep> pluxii: I know.  It's not that.  It's all about compiling and the flags in them.
[00:40] <VCoolio> dmitri: so point is you want amsn? and a specific version or just amsn?
[00:41] <hawkie> danny7210 i know what the problem is, just checked the installer box, its says "no space left on device"
[00:41] <pluxii> mobi-sheep: ah
[00:41] <UnderSampled> mobi-sheep: this was the suggested method for rescuing data off a scratched cd
[00:41] <danny7210> hawkie - did you try that code though
[00:41] <dmitri> vcoolio: it is just a version of amsn
[00:41] <hawkie> danny7210 nope doing it now
[00:41] <schirpich> yea, I did the reboot thing, no help there. There are no entries in kwallet for anything but kopete.  The weird thing is, if I just use smbclient from cmd line I can connect.  For some reason its just dolphin that fails to ask for a login/pass
[00:41] <happy> hawkie: a full hdd explains your error
[00:42] <VCoolio> dmitri: I have 0.97.2 in default repositories, isn't that good enough?
[00:42] <dmitri> vcoolio: i want to preserve all the contacts in msn of windows
[00:42] <mobi-sheep> UnderSampled: You see this yet?
[00:42] <happy> hawkie: most programs are not descriptive enogh when they fail due to lack of space
[00:42] <mobi-sheep> !undelete | UnderSampled
[00:43] <VCoolio> dmitri: well that's not a problem, you have an account in which contacts are stored; the client doesn't matter; you can use pidgin or whatever
[00:43] <schirpich> happy: is there reason dolphin would think that it did not have to ask for authentication?
[00:43] <happy> schirpich: yes, if there is anything on the system that it is allowed to axx without a pass, it will not ask for one
[00:44] <hawkie> danny7210 ok. done.
[00:44] <UnderSampled> mobi-sheep: yes. But the only information on recovering cds on that page is the same as the example in ddrescue's info file
[00:44] <hawkie> happy thx. will remove something and try again
[00:44] <danny7210> hawkie: try reinstalling
[00:44] <mobi-sheep> pluxii: Things okay? ;o
[00:44] <pagoda> should i be able to install firefox 3.5 on hardy with apt-get?
[00:45] <mobi-sheep> !ff35 | pagoda
[00:45] <jhunior> hola
[00:45] <dmitri> vcoolio: :DDDDDDD i found ; i didn't see that i had this version in the default repertories
[00:45] <mobi-sheep> UnderSampled: I'll look into it.
[00:45] <dmitri> vcoolio: thank you very much
[00:45] <UnderSampled> mobi-sheep: which is what I had just writen above. Then it says to burn it to a disk without explaining how.
[00:45] <dmitri> vcoolio: ;)
[00:45] <VCoolio> dmitri: no problem, good luck with it
[00:45] <UnderSampled> mobi-sheep: If I could, I would like to mount the file directly, because I don't really feel like burning a cd
[00:45] <pagoda> mobi-sheep, thanks
[00:46] <nerdy_kid> i have port 29858 open in UFW but sudo nmap -f -p 0-65535 <IP_ADDRESS> doesnt pick it up.  Am i doing any thing wrong?
[00:46] <mobi-sheep> UnderSampled: Under which contents in the link?
[00:46] <happy> nerdy_kid: are you running a service on that port?
[00:47] <nerdy_kid> happy no
[00:47] <pagoda> where is a good guide for upgrading to karmic?
[00:47] <danny7210> hawkie - is it working?
[00:47] <ascheel> Pagoda, that is a question for #ubuntu+1
[00:47] <mykas0> hi everyone
[00:47] <happy> nerdy_kid: try nc -l 29858 on the target computer
[00:47] <schirpich> happy: however my the samba shares do require auth.  only dolphin can see the server and the shared folders, and when i click on the shared folder for the server it tries and tries for about 30 seconds give or take and then just says Access Denied.  Without prompting me for authentication.  Which leads me to believe just by its behavior that its got a bad login/pass stored somewhere.  I just dont know where
[00:47] <mobi-sheep> !upgrade | pagoda
[00:48] <UnderSampled> mobi-sheep: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DataRecovery#line-155
[00:48] <pagoda> thanks
[00:48] <happy> nerdy_kid: nc will setup a dummy service which will allow you to test
[00:48] <hawkie> danny7210 trying to remove wine first, add/remove stopped responding
[00:48] <mobi-sheep> UnderSampled: So you have an copied iso laying around, right?
[00:48] <danny7210> hawkie - ohh ok
[00:48] <happy> schirpich: try to connect to "smb:/user@host"
[00:49] <UnderSampled> mobi-sheep: of what?
[00:49] <nerdy_kid> happy, done, nmap still doesnt pick it up
[00:49] <happy> you kept nc running?
[00:49] <mobi-sheep> UnderSampled: ddrescue. You rescued it and now you have a file, right?
[00:50] <nerdy_kid> happy, yes still running, but not as root
[00:50] <happy> nerdy_kid: root is not needed
[00:50] <mac9416> Hello, I'm trying to set up opendns. I changed the nameserver lines in /etc/resolv.conf and that didn't work. Then I tried /etc/ppp/resolv.conf. I rebooted and the lines changed back to what they were before I inserted the opendns lines. Any idea how to keep it from switching back like that?
[00:50] <happy> nerdy_kid: try to telnet to the port while nc is running
[00:50] <UnderSampled> mobi-sheep: its still going, but it sounds like it has a lot more errors than I thought it would
[00:50] <mobi-sheep> UnderSampled: What command do you use to ddrescue?
[00:51] <happy> mac9416: resolv.conf s overridden by dhcp
[00:51] <UnderSampled> mobi-sheep: as I said above
[00:51] <UnderSampled> mobi-sheep: ddrescue -b 2048 /media/cdrom cdimage ~/ddrescueLog
[00:51] <mac9416> happy, nice nick ;-) Could you explain a little further?
[00:51] <schirpich> happy: did that, shares show up, click on share to open, sits for 30 seconds, and "Access denied to smb://user@servername/sharefoldernamehere" below the split window.   No prompt for password
[00:52] <happy> schirpich: I am not sure what the problem is then... try to ask on #kubuntu
[00:52] <mobi-sheep> UnderSampled: Well, I think you're okay.  If you include -v (verbose) in that, you'd see activities on that.  As long as the command is still running and nothing is showing, it's a good thing.
[00:53] <schirpich> happy: yea, its a weird one for sure.  I'll try that. thanks for trying
[00:53] <nerdy_kid> happy i tryed with nc on then off, connection refused both times
[00:53] <danny7210> hawkie : working now ?
[00:53] <mobi-sheep> UnderSampled: Also, you may be able to mount iso when it's done.
[00:53] <mobi-sheep> !mountiso | UnderSampled
[00:53] <mobi-sheep> UnderSampled: I think you can right-click on the file and mount it when it's done.
[00:53] <mac9416> happy, btw, I'm getting the net on mobile broadand, if that helps.
[00:53] <happy> mac9416: did you follow these instructions?: https://www.opendns.com/start/device/ubuntu
[00:53] <mac9416> happy, yes.
[00:54] <hawkie> danny7210 how do I kill a process from terminal, add/remove wont quit itself
[00:54] <UnderSampled> mobi-sheep: Is it actually an ISO, or just raw data that I will have to convert?
[00:54] <happy> nerdy_kid: in that case there is something wrong with the firewall rules
[00:54] <mac9416> happy, I assumed the problem was that they were using dhcp on an ethernet connection, and I'm using ppp on broadbnd.
[00:54] <mobi-sheep> UnderSampled: Seems like an iso if they instruct you "to burn it"
[00:54] <danny7210> hawkie - http://www.cyberciti.biz/faq/kill-process-in-linux-or-terminate-a-process-in-unix-or-linux-systems/
[00:54] <nerdy_kid> happy i tryed disabling ufw, still didnt help, does Jaunty come with two firewalls?
[00:54] <jazzy> can someone help me figure out this problem? http://tinyurl.com/lqe7bq
[00:55] <mac9416> happy, not that I'm sure what all that means :-P
[00:55] <nerdy_kid> happy would my router firewall interfere?
[00:55] <memiux> How can I organize my passwords?
[00:55] <mobi-sheep> UnderSampled: Linux necessarily don't need file extensions and they automatically knew what filetypes you use by reading inside firsthand.  Anyway, we like to use extensions for our benefits. :)
[00:55] <happy> nerdy_kid: depends, are you connecting from outside the local network?
[00:56] <tonii> <3 gmusicbrowser
[00:56] <nerdy_kid> happy no, i am trying to connect to my own pc via <IP_ADDRESS>
[00:56] <mobi-sheep> !ops | jazzy
[00:56] <codo> I have few queries. I upgraded to ubuntu jackalope
[00:56] <tonii> fast and minimal
[00:56] <jpds> mobi-sheep: ?
[00:56] <codo> and my system is damn slow. why is it so /
[00:56] <tonii> Banshee took forever to change songs. >.<
[00:57] <codo> is it problem with ubuntu ?
[00:57] <mobi-sheep> jpds: Porn Link.
[00:57] <TallGrrl> Suspect? You still here?
[00:57] <happy> nerdy_kid: in that case it never leaves the system. (no router problems)

[00:57] <morphias> codo - have you run the updates on your distro yet?
[00:57] <jpds> Haha!
[00:57] <mobi-sheep> :P
[00:57] <danny7210> Hey guys, I am trying to install ubuntu 9.04 on my laptop and I get this error : modprobe:FATAL: could not load /lib/modules/2.6.28-11-generic/modules.dep : No such directory or file
[00:57] <UnderSampled> mobi-sheep: I was aware of that, I just don't know how to tell if it actually is an ISO
[00:58] <nerdy_kid> happy does Jaunty come with two firewalls? i searched 'firewall' in synaptic, but only ufw was installed...
[00:58] <codo> morphias: let me try and get back to you.
[00:58] <shaullx> any GUI client for hamachi?
[00:58] <shaullx> i found one but it has problems
[00:58] <codo> morphias: I can use synaptic to to upgrae ?
[00:58] <shaullx> so anything like hamachi i dont know :/
[00:58] <happy> nerdy_kid: I am not even sure what UFW is. I think it is a frontend for the real firewall iptables
[00:59] <mac9416> So, happy, you don't know how to stop this thing from resetting my dns? :-)
[00:59] <happy> nerdy_kid: I gave you he wrong cmd
[00:59] <morphias> codo - System -> Administration -> Update Manager .  see if it updates some stuff... my 9.04 didn't work right until i ran updates
[00:59] <happy> nerdy_kid: nc -l -p PORTNUM
[00:59] <pagoda> i just logged in and my titlebars were gone.  i couldn't drag my windows around.  then i rebooted and they came back.  i'm running hardy.  does anyone else have that problem?
[01:00] <mobi-sheep> UnderSampled: If you can't mount it, then it isn't iso.  And we're talking about ddrescue here too. :)
[01:00] <happy> mac9416: they remove the instructions from opendns site that works everytime :-\
[01:00] <codo> morphias: it says system is upto date
[01:00] <happy> mac9416: I found it
[01:00] <codo> everything is damn slow.
[01:00] <codo> sigh.
[01:00] <shaullx> ?
[01:01] <happy> mac9416: look at step 8 on the guide
[01:01] <nerdy_kid> happy that did it, nmap picked it up. so the ports are blocked even if I allow them until an app needs them... thanks for your help!
[01:01] <cehr> hello :)  lately firefox has been giving me problems; it randomly segfaults while browsing and afterwards I can't open it or epiphany without it segfaulting until I reboot.  any ideas as to what's going on?
[01:01] <happy> nerdy_kid: no problem. Sorry I gave you the wrong cmd XD
[01:01] <mac9416> happy, awesome, I missed that. Thanks a lot :-)
[01:01] <morphias> codo - idk what to say then.
[01:01] <happy> mac9416: np
[01:02] <nerdy_kid> happy ok lol thanks again
[01:02] <codo> any ubuntu developers around here ?
[01:02] <morphias> codo turn of compiz?
[01:02] <UnderSampled> mobi-sheep: so, now I ask why ddrescue is now reducing the errsize, but the number of errors is still increasing
[01:02] <codo> morphias: heh i use gnome, and no compiz
[01:02] <dreamy> is there any flash app for linux=

[01:10] <morphias> codo - x-session manager is using 6.9 MiB
[01:10] <morphias> why, do you have a memory like maybe in your xorg ?

[01:13] <Polterge|st> oh wrong window
[01:13] <Polterge|st> :P
[01:13] <mOrO^> yes, but it does not work well, with Pulseaudio unless you install the svn
[01:14] <fjordlord> mOrO^, but can u atleast transfer images?
[01:14] <linuxviewer> I have an installation of ubuntu and I removed the dual nic network card that was in there and replaced with an identical model number.  However, now I cannot get my NIC up and said device not found.  I assume because of the MAC address change.  Can someone point me in the right direction of what file(s) to edit to put in new MAC address (I am running Ubuntu server mode)
[01:14] <ntemis> hello
[01:14] <mOrO^> fjordside: Im sure you can, I havent done that with it.
[01:14] <ntemis> i need some help
[01:14] <ntemis> i had latest nvidia drivers installed
[01:15] <ntemis> and after kernel update they where messed up
[01:15] <w0tan_1> is there any way that i can autodetect hardware in order to set up x-wiundows on ubuntu server?
[01:15] <ntemis> so i used the hardware drivers applet to use nvidia drivers
[01:15] <ntemis> now i cannot use 3d effects
[01:15] <ntemis> so what i need to do
[01:15] <ntemis> renmove custom installation?
[01:15] <edbian> w0tan_1: From my understanding,  X probes the hardware when the system is started automatically.
[01:15] <ntemis> re install latest drivers again?
[01:16] <ntemis> or....
[01:16] <mobi-sheep> linuxviewer: Try #ubuntu-server
[01:16] <ctmjr> ntemis, uninstall everything nvidia then reinstall
[01:16] <VCoolio> ntemis: isn't that known for manually installing drivers that they break on kernel update? stick with drivers in repos or reinstall latest
[01:16] <Bacta> Is there an app I can use to stream movies to my Xbox 360?
[01:16] <w0tan_1> edbian: oh, i thought i was required to change the config manually. and i dont know what kind of hardware i've got in there
[01:16] <fjordlord> mOrO^, what is svn?
[01:16] <masterchild> hello
[01:16] <ntemis> i had freeze ups with nvidia drivers on ubuntu repos
[01:17] <edbian> w0tan_1: You don't need to.  Try installing the packages you need and starting X.
[01:17] <MrPiracy> mobi-sheep: would you please send me a picture of ur xChat's config/color screen? thx
[01:17] <mac94161> happy, the instructions did not work, my nameserver lines continue to be reset.

[01:17] <ntemis> nvidia
[01:17] <danny7210> aijse - by live cd
[01:17] <edbian> w0tan_1: Then config file is /etc/X11/xorg.conf  In fact with the newest X servers you don't need that config file to be there at all.  That's how good X has gotten at probing hardware.
[01:17] <danny7210> Aijes - Actually a live usb
[01:17] <mOrO^> fjordlord: It is the "bleeding edge" program... but mediabuntu must be added to your repository,,,, let me get you an url that explains how to do it.
[01:18] <ntemis> how i remove the custom installation?
[01:18] <danny7210> Aijse - Actually I am install via a usb

[01:18] <hawkie> winehq even
[01:18] <edbian> linuxguy2009: Why are you converting from flac to mp3 anyway?  Why not just use ogg/vorbis?  Can you give me a bigger picture of what you're doing?
[01:19] <linuxguy2009> edbian: Using MP3 and AAC for iPod use mainly.
[01:19] <MrPiracy> leaf-sheep: no, i mean a new one with ur config/colors open
[01:19] <linuxguy2009> edbian: GtkPod to do the actual music to ipod transfers.

[01:20] <masterchild> is there a program that can transfer music to my ipod touch and also restore it if it gets messed up?
[01:20] <jrib> masterchild: no, complain to apple
[01:20] <akore> how can I get a toolbar type thing for the taskbar at the top of my screen for rhythmbox media player controls?
[01:20] <edbian> linuxguy2009: Oh, ok.  Understandable then.  I think that you can set Sound Juicer to rip right to mp3 or AAC
[01:20] <th0r> masterchild: I use gtkpod for my nano, don't know if it supports the touch or not
[01:20] <akore> like the itunes toolbar for windows when you minimize it

[01:21] <Aijse> danny7210, does the occur during installation or when you boot after installation? And have you tried burning another cd?
[01:22] <linuxguy2009> edbian: Yeah i know I can rip right to MP3 but I have no control over bitrate with Sound Juicer. Hence the reason i ask for gstreamer pipeline documentation. Without the documentation i have to do the extra flac->mp3 conversion with Sound Converter.
[01:22] <danny7210> aijse: when I try to install
[01:22] <w0tan_1> edbian: wow. the autodection is impressive, it just worked after i installed it. a lot has changed in the last 10 years. :)
[01:22] <danny7210> aijse: I burned a cd same problem
[01:22] <Legendario> i installed jaunty and can't set the right screen resolution with my nvidia 5200 graphic card
[01:22] <edbian> w0tan_1: lol.  Yeah 10 years was 1999!  We didn't even have windows XP yet!
[01:23] <UnderSampled> Legendario: are you using the proprietary nvidia drives?
[01:23] <w0tan_1> edbian: and configuring X to run was an adventure in failure on most of my machines.
[01:23] <Legendario> UnderSampled, yes
[01:23] <edbian> linuxguy2009: You sound like a pretty serious audio buff!  I'm envious of your knowledge.  Have you seen this? http://gstreamer.freedesktop.org/modules/gst-editor.html
[01:23] <UnderSampled> Legendario: are you using the nvidia control panel?

[01:25] <linuxviewer> I have tried manually editing /etc/network/interfaces and putting hwaddress in there but that doesnt work.  Suggestions for editing MAC address because I think it gave it eth2/eth3 insted of eth0/eth1 like before
[01:25] <UnderSampled> Legendario: Does it change your resolution at all?
[01:25] <linuxguy2009> edbian: Hmm looks neat. Ill give it a whirl. Thank you!
[01:25] <edbian> linuxguy2009: NP
[01:26] <Legendario> UnderSampled, i am stuck with a dammed 640X480 resolution. I can't hardly read...
[01:26] <Aijse> danny7210, I'd say somethin is damaged to the image you re using, so either the Ubuntu you downloaded might be damaged or the medium its on, time for bed now srry ... goodluck
[01:27] <UnderSampled> Legendario: so you can't change it at all.
[01:27] <edbian> linuxviewer: I think what you're talking about is simply changing the alias.  Look at this: http://www.cyberciti.biz/faq/linux-creating-or-adding-new-network-alias-to-a-network-card-nic/
[01:27] <danny7210> aijse - thats impossible, because I have installed the same disk on my desktop no problem
[01:28] <Legendario> UnderSample, yes. I am using the nvidia X server setting
[01:28] <danny7210> Hey guys, I am trying to install ubuntu 9.04 on my laptop and I get this error : modprobe:FATAL: could not load /lib/modules/2.6.28-11-generic/modules.dep : No such directory or file
[01:29] <UnderSampled> Legendario: so you are using nvidia-settings
[01:30] <mobi-sheep> Legendario: Only one and max resolution in nvidia-settings?
[01:30] <UnderSampled> Legendario: try running "sudo nvidia-settings" (without quotes). The one in the menu does not provide root access, which is required to save the X configuration
[01:32] <bernardlychan> does anyone know how to start vnc on kde?
[01:32] <UnderSampled> bernardlychan: Server or client?
[01:32] <Legendario> UnderSample, nvidia-settings only shows 640X480 as maximum resolution
[01:32] <bernardlychan> server

[01:58] <linuxguy2009> edbian: I found what i needed with the package from the repos called "gstreamer-tools" theres a command line tool called "gst-inspect" it lists all codecs on the machine and all the options. I noticed in the default Sound Juicer pipelines there is a "!" character between a few of the settings and Im wondering is that character common in other linux command line uses? Ive never used it before in the terminal but I wasnt sure.

[01:59] <mOrO^> erikk71: Mac4Linux
[01:59] <mobi-sheep> vprm: I think you should start off with Ubuntu.  It's popular and people seems to love it.  KDE is a different flavors and would be great for mommies.  However, KDE is going through a phrase of rewriting applications to KDE4.  I'm using KDE4 at the moment.  XFCE is really lightweight and it's really great for old machines and lacks in visual effects.  I think you want Gnome first.  KDE second.
[01:59] <rz> radeon 9200

Started watching my movies, animes, TV series, etc in linux and IM and etc.  Not just occasional usage and none of that "Oh if something went wrong, I'll just go back to Windows" stuffs.
[02:17] <Legendario> mobi-sheep, i am going to restart x again. BRB
[02:17] <FrankQC> vprm: :0 nice
[02:17] <sebsebseb> vprm: ok well  Ubuntu shoudn't be that big of a deal then
[02:17] <mobi-sheep> vprm: You'll learn and learn and eventually realized it's more fun to use than Windows. :)
[02:18] <bujji> vprm: if u want i can send u some basic stuff
[02:18] <vprm> it's been fun...  and there are more help in the this group than the WINXP one..
[02:18] <Dulak> vprm: if you have to have a fall back you can use virtualbox to install windows in a virtual machine so you can boot it and use windows for whatever you need, though it's crap for gaming
[02:18] <sebsebseb> vprm: well   there isn't really any proper  Windows community support, as far as I know
[02:18] <UnderSampled> gartral: Try looking at the man page for eject
[02:19] <vprm> i though bill gates is the help..
[02:19] <mob_> n e 1 wanna try x and intel 82830 gcc ?
[02:19] <sebsebseb> Dulak: well Virtualbox 3.0  has better support for  Direct3D 8 and 9,  I haven't tested though
[02:19] <Dulak> sebsebseb: i have, it's choppy as hell
[02:19] <Dulak> sebsebseb: but it's improving, so I have high hopes for the future
[02:19] <sebsebseb> Dulak: ,but yeah I heard stuff like that, a bit slow with some games,  and choppy as you say
[02:20] <sebsebseb> !intel  |  mob_
[02:20] <vprm> thanx guys -- or people for all the help..
[02:21] <mob_> ty
[02:21] <sebsebseb> vprm and mob_  np
[02:22] <UnderSampled> gartral: try eject -T
[02:22] <mirsal> Hello
[02:22] <UnderSampled> Mirsal: Hello
[02:22] <bujji> vprm; please see the orkut community fsmca@griet and swatantramay it will some what helpful to you
[02:22] <gartral> UnderSampled: did.. i tried every iteration of eject i could think of before asking here\
[02:22] <bujji> i am from hyderabad from swecha group
[02:23] <nixiepixel> Does anyone know how to compile a program from source? =p
[02:23] <UnderSampled> gartral: then you would know more than me
[02:23] <mobi-sheep> !compile | nixiepixel
[02:23] <UnderSampled> gartral: sorry I can't help any
[02:23] <bujji> first configure ur fiile
[02:23] <UnderSampled> nixiepixel: it usually depends on the specific program
[02:23] <bujji> follow these steps
[02:24] <gb0at> windows is proooooo
[02:24] <nixiepixel> UnderSampled, Just trying to compile and install gpac and am having problems. ='(
[02:24] <bujji> if it is from tar balls
[02:24] <Kalmi_> gartral, worst case scenario: there is a little hole on the cd drive insert a pin there and it will eject... (however I wouldn't do that while powered on)
[02:24] <colloguy> what's the best way to share calendar data between osx's ical and linux on the same system (without resorting to an online service)?
[02:24] <gb0at> How do i fix my windows? it keeps displaying the bsod screen
[02:24] <gartral> Kalmi_: i already said this drive lacks said hole
[02:24] <mirsal> Is using HAL fdi files still the right way to configure an input device ?
[02:25] <bujji> tar xzf sourcefilename
[02:25] <bujji> cd <extractedsourcefile>
[02:25] <gartral> mirsal: yes
[02:25] <bujji> ./configure
[02:25] <wirechief_> gb0at:  maybe someone on #windows can help you
[02:25] <gb0at> lol im kiddin >.<
[02:25] <bujji> may u willl get some dependency problems
[02:25] <gb0at> windows is lame
[02:26] <bujji> that packages will be specified install them
[02:26] <HowDoI> Anybody know when Ubuntu will fix the intel graphics problem?
[02:26] <mirsal> gartral, okay :) I heard about HAL being dropped in favour of DeviceKit so I was a bit worried
[02:26] <sebsebseb> gb0at: if your getting the Blue Screen Of Death it means your hardware may be failing or you installed bad drivers
[02:26] <mirsal> thanks
[02:26] <bujji> when u find no errors or dependencies the next step is
[02:26] <wirechief_> HowDol with Karmic
[02:26] <bujji> make
[02:26] <sebsebseb> gb0at: and if your hardware is failing Ubuntu is going to go bad eventually as well
[02:26] <bujji> make install
[02:26] <gb0at> lol sebsebseb.. i was kidding >.< you would not find me running windows on my computer
[02:26] <gb0at> windows can suck on my cock
[02:27] <nixiepixel> bujji, I think I fixed the dependency problems, and make did not return an error.. but sudo checkinstall is failing.
[02:27] <HowDoI> So Ubuntu isn't going to fix Jaunty ever?
[02:27] <gartral> !language gb0at
[02:27] <gartral> !language |gb0at
[02:27] <bujji> your sourcepackaged will be installed
[02:27] <VCoolio> nixiepixel: what does checkinstall say?
[02:27] <matyo> hi everybody
[02:27] <bujji> is any one getting my messages
[02:28] <mirsal> hey matyo
[02:28] <Kalmi_> sebsebseb, gb0at: most of time BSODs on virus-ridden machines are not caused by hardware failure... bad drivers... having two antivirus... etc...
[02:28] <bujji> any one of u give me a reply
[02:28] <gb0at> ^^ kalmi_ you deserve a cookie
[02:28] <VCoolio> bujji: yeah, try talking to persons by putting names in front
[02:28] <sebsebseb> !cookie |  Kalmi_
[02:28] <gartral> Kalmi_ UnderSampled DOI! xmms2 didnt release the device
[02:28] <gb0at> but the real answer is
[02:28] <bujji> ok tq
[02:28] <matyo> i have a very good question :D
[02:28] <gb0at> windows is made to display bsod from the start. Bill gates fails
[02:29] <gb0at> like windows does
[02:29] <nixiepixel> VCoolio, http://pastebin.com/m539be160 - The last few lines before epic failure =(
[02:29] <Kalmi_> gb0at, actually they just want you buy new hw... :) opss... we have gone a bit offropic...
[02:29] <rz> !!
[02:29] <rz> !nvidia
[02:30] <matyo> i add a partition with ubuntu partition manager after that im install windows xp but now i cant see my linux just windows work
[02:30] <rz> !help
[02:30] <gb0at> To Solve BSOD: Boot Up Ubuntu -> Format Windows
[02:30] <gb0at> Am I a winrar?
[02:30] <mobi-sheep> matyo: If you can, install Windows first.  Ubuntu second.
[02:30] <gartral> !windows
[02:30] <rz> lol
[02:30] <bazhang> !ot > gb0at
[02:30] <VCoolio> nixiepixel: maybe "sudo mkdir /usr/local/lib64" will help (first check if it really doesn't exist yet before it overwrites anything
[02:31] <Kalmi_> :D
[02:31] <gartral> gb0at: one more and its the ops for you
[02:31] <matyo> yeah i know this is the easy way but im work on ubuntu 6 months before install windows and now i must get my data
[02:31] <gb0at> lol
[02:32] <UnderSampled> gartral: that would do it. :)
[02:32] <mobi-sheep> matyo: Tsk. Fix your grub before somebody snatch it away for dinner.
[02:32] <mobi-sheep> !grub | matyo
[02:32] <nixiepixel> matyo, Here's my video on how to fix your problem http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WtBBl6HvdpM Good luck hon =)
[02:32] <matyo> yeah
[02:32] <rz> matyo: try booting from CD, and select the OS to boot in GRUB
[02:32] <nixiepixel> VCoolio, Thanks, trying it now
[02:33] <carmen276> how can I get my Nvidia Card to work with Jaunty?
[02:33] <mediatech> hello.... when play video (movies, etc) when scenes change the video has a choppy horizontal line. dosn't do every sceen but enough to annoy
[02:33] <matyo> im in live cd at moment :D
[02:33] <mobi-sheep> carmen276: Enable hardware drivers + install Nvidia 180.
[02:33] <NicotineBomb> quit
[02:33] <carmen276> mobi-sheep: I have the Drivers install already
[02:34] <mobi-sheep> carmen276: You're done.  Wanna configure stuffs?  "gksudo nvidia-settings"
[02:35] <rz> I bought a bad spindle of DVD-R's :(
[02:35] <carmen276> mobi-sheep: It says I have the drivers installed and enabled
[02:35] <Roboto_Ubuntu> can anyone tell me (new to ubuntu) how i can find out the latest updates (pulseaudio) cause after updates, I have no sound
[02:35] <Roboto_Ubuntu> i want to remove the last pulse updates
[02:35] <carmen276> mobi-sheep: but my effects wont work
[02:35] <Kalmi_> RobotCow, switching to ALSA is easier
[02:36] <mobi-sheep> carmen276: Have you enabled the effects? :o
[02:36] <Kalmi_> Roboto_Ubuntu, switching to ALSA is easier
[02:36] <Blizzerand> lol
[02:36] <carmen276> mobi-sheep: yes
[02:36] <Kalmi_> !sound | Roboto_Ubuntu
[02:36] <mobi-sheep> !compiz | carmen276
[02:36] <mobi-sheep> carmen276: If you got effects to work, you should see wobbly windows and such.
[02:36] <RobotCow> Kalmi_, i prefer pulseaudio, it rocks if you know how to use it
[02:37] <Roboto_Ubuntu> vol control device says alsa mixer
[02:37] <carmen276> mobi-sheep: ok thanks, I'll go to that channel
[02:37] <nixiepixel> Can anyone help troubleshoot my checkinstall problem pleease? http://pastebin.com/m3a4075a6 =(
[02:38] <Interphase> hi everyone, my laptop came with an infrared remote receiver for remote controls, any idea how ubuntu could recognize and use this?
[02:38] <Kalmi_> RobotCow, I have never seen anyone actually using pulseaudio's capabilites... :
[02:38] <Horacio> hello.. i have a question..
[02:38] <Horacio> could i use the debian lenny dvd as source for apt?
[02:38] <bazhang> Horacio, no
[02:38] <brandi> I am trying to set up a postfix mail server.   Somewhere I mistyped something and now when i send an email it has the misspelled domain name?   Anyone know where this info comes from initially?  Kind of a noob
[02:38] <Horacio> ok, why/
[02:39] <Kalmi_> Horacio, yes... but not for ubuntu :)
[02:39] <Horacio> lol, not even for vim? g++?
[02:39] <bazhang> !debian | Horacio
[02:39] <RobotCow> Kalmi_, the ubuntu community is mostly made up of users who have switched from windows, not linux from scratch users or slackware users who are tech savy.
[02:40] <mediatech> when play video when scenes change the video has a choppy horizontal line. dosn't do every sceen but enough to annoy
[02:40] <edbian> Kalmi_: I went from windows xp to ubuntu to debian
[02:40] <bazhang> mediatech, compiz is enabled or not
[02:40] <Horacio> ok.. got it, so relating to that, is there a python/ruby/bash script to get a couple hundred packages with apt in order to compile them in a dvd or do i have to make own?
[02:41] <mediatech> not sure
[02:41] <mobi-sheep> Interphase: Err, maybe lirc.
[02:41] <bazhang> Horacio, what about aptoncd
[02:41] <Horacio> i am a regular debian user, the thing is, it doesn't work on my notebook! plus, i hate fedora
[02:41] <Interphase> mobi-sheep, yeah, I found that just now
[02:41] <bazhang> !aptoncd > Horacio
[02:42] <Roboto_Ubuntu> i have been an rpm distro person, never debian, thought id try it out, kinda like it, but pulse is killing me
[02:42] <bazhang> mediatech, try with compiz off
[02:42] <bazhang> Roboto_Ubuntu, what about installing pavucontrol
[02:42] <Horacio> ok tanks > ubottu
[02:42] <Kalmi_> Roboto_Ubuntu, why not switch to alsa?
[02:42] <Roboto_Ubuntu> tell me how to switch to alsa and i will
[02:43] <mediatech> bazhang, ok. what command will do that?
[02:43] <Roboto_Ubuntu> just apt-get alsa ??
[02:43] <RobotCow> edbian, then you ought to make a virtual sound device and have your sound play on another machine through the network just for fun, like a movie throughout the an entire mansion and you can also control the sound of individual apps which i do often using pulseaudio. pulseaudio was really useful when my usb headset was working because i could easily switch the sound stream between my sound card and the usb headset without unplugging it and reboot
[02:43] <RobotCow> ing and all that mess.
[02:43] <bazhang> mediatech, try alt f2 metacity --replace
[02:44] <Roboto_Ubuntu> i had vlc setup for that so we could watch anything from the tvcard in parts of the house
[02:44] <RobotCow> Roboto_Ubuntu, no, you have to also blacklist oss modules
[02:44] <HowDoI> RobotCow: Do you know how to get sound/mic through a Bluetooth headset with Ubuntu/PulseAudio?
[02:45] <mediatech> bazhang, did that, screen flashed. but tried playing video and still has the same problem
[02:45] <RobotCow> HowDoI, ask in #pulseaudio or #alsa because i have never owned a bluetooth device except for my blackberry which i dont have the bluetooth headset to use with it so i have no experience with using bluetooth in linux
[02:46] <bazhang> mediatech, completely quit and restarted video?
[02:46] <HowDoI> Ok
[02:46] <gza> привет всем
[02:46] <bazhang> gza, #ubuntu-ru
[02:46] <mediatech> bazhang, ok, thanks... maybe back.
[02:46] <gza> :)
[02:47] <gza> i now
[02:47] <Kalmi_> Roboto_Ubuntu, read(!) this factoid:
[02:47] <Kalmi_> !sound | Roboto_Ubuntu
[02:47] <ROCKY`> cya all later :)
[02:47] <ksc654> Help!!! I installed the ATI binary driver and after I rebooted all I get is a garbled screen.
[02:47] <ROCKY`> I'm off to bed
[02:48] <edbian> ksc654: garbled?
[02:48] <skyeee> well that was interesting, i just installed ubuntu, yet it's not bringing up the bootloader at all on startup
[02:49] <edbian> skyeee: Are you booting to the correct HDD?
[02:49] <ksc654> Yes. Mostly black with a few pixels here and there. Some blink but most are solid.
[02:49] <mobi-sheep> I'm off to bed. Goodnight bazhang. :)
[02:49] <skyeee> edbian, yes, i only OS's in stalled on one hdd
[02:49] <skyeee> +have
[02:50] <bazhang> mobi-sheep, bye :)
[02:50] <edbian> skyeee: What does the system do?  Bios post and then report: "No OS" ??
[02:50] <gza> headphones and columns work simultaneously, why? in ubuntu
[02:50] <skyeee> edbian, just goes straight to windows
[02:50] <skyeee> (xp)
[02:50] <queso> Anyone here have a large personal library?  I see two options for managing a library (maybe there are more), Alexandria and GCstar.  Anyone have any experience with these applications?  Which would you recommend for books only?
[02:51] <edbian> skyeee: I would pop in a live CD and look at the /boot/grub/menu.lst config file on your ubuntu install
[02:52] <jander991> skyeee:  How many hard drives do you have in your system?
[02:52] <Piranah> ok im screwed just installed, cant boot to Vista or Ubuntu now. Im on a live cd. Any help would be greatfull
[02:52] <ksc654> How do I get to a command prompt to troubleshoot when the screen is all garbled?
[02:52] <Piranah> no errors on install of grub suring install
[02:52] <bruenig> ksc654: ssh
[02:53] <skyeee> jander991, two, but only one of them has operating systems installed
[02:53] <mediatech> bazhang, well... i rebooted and tried it again. and got the same results. Now I have a Intel GMA X4500 graphics card. its a laptop.
[02:53] <jander991> skyeee:  Do you remember, when installing Ubuntu if you saw options for 'Grub'?  Its possible Grub loaded the bootloader on the wrong drive (your data drive not your OS drive).
[02:54] <Piranah> jannder991 how do ya check that ?
[02:54] <Piranah> i can see my linux install. The drive looks good all folders are there etc
[02:54] <cjae> Hi, Can I use ext4 with LVM?
[02:55] <bazhang> mediatech, sorry, I did not mean for you to reboot; I just meant to restart the media player? have you tried more than one? mplayer, vlc, etc?
[02:55] <bruenig> !lvm | cjae
[02:55] <Piranah> and i can see my 3 windows drives
[02:55] <ksc654> bruenig: I have to access it from another machine? There's no way to get to a command prompt from the computer I'm have trouble with?
[02:55] <gza>  headphones and columns work simultaneously, why? in ubuntu
[02:55] <skyeee> jander991, i don't recall seeing anything for grub, but there is a grub folder in my linux install (have it booted to live cd)
[02:55] <bazhang> gza, columns = speakers?
[02:55] <bruenig> ksc654: I am saying that is one way.
[02:55] <cjae> bruenig, ya I read that stuff
[02:55] <bruenig> ksc654: are you saying the framebuffer is messed up
[02:55] <bruenig> ?
[02:55] <Piranah> skyee we are both in the same boat atm
[02:55] <Piranah> im runnin off live as well atm
[02:56] <mediatech> bazhang, oh... lol yes Ive tried different players and tried changing the video output (x11, xv, etc)
[02:56] <jander991> Piranah: I'm actually not sure.  There are instructions somewhere that tells you how to manually install grub
[02:56] <skyeee> Piranah, you installed it but it just goes straight to windows?
[02:56] <gza> headphones and columns work simultaneously, why
[02:56] <bazhang> mediatech, what format of video? commercial dvd or something other
[02:56] <Piranah> skyee i wish it boots to grub error nothin else. It DID boot to winblows at one point ehhe
[02:56] <Piranah> :)
[02:57] <Piranah> jander991 ok off to google i go
[02:57] <gza>  speakers
[02:57] <bazhang> gza, dont repeat so quickly, and they are called 'speakers', not columns
[02:57] <jander991> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows
[02:57] <jander991> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto
[02:57] <Piranah> thnx
[02:57] <ksc654> bruenig: All I know is I installed the ATI binary driver from the package repository and when I rebooted I got the Ubuntu splash shortly followed by random pixel garbage.
[02:57] <gza> ok
[02:57] <tyoc> there exist an app that say me how many time I have used in the desktop for specific applications (the time in foreground, and the time I have used it via kb and mouse?)
[02:57]  * skyeee tries reinstalling ubuntu, i've got time.
[02:57] <jander991> Piranah, skyeee:  Hope that gets you two in the right direction.
[02:58] <bruenig> ksc654: have you tried tty?
[02:58] <tyoc> like a time tracking
[02:58] <skyeee> jander991, should i be looking somewhere to specify where to install grub during startup?
[02:58] <mediatech> bazhang, dose it with DVD, AVI, mkv. i'm on a laptop and I have a 22in external screen. when its at a lower resolution its not as noticeable but at full screen on my external it is.
[02:58] <skyeee> jander991, i mean, during install <<
[02:58] <skyeee> ><
[02:58] <skyeee> gah
[02:59] <uqs> Hello, I would like to know what the smartest way to upgrade the Firefox version that came with Ubuntu 9.04 (ff 3.0 or something) to ff 3.5
[02:59] <bazhang> mediatech, sounds like a video driver issue then
[02:59] <forces> hello
[02:59] <ubuntu1241> hello world!  my first successful IRC post!
[02:59] <bazhang> !ff35 | uqs
[02:59] <uqs> !ff35
[02:59] <jander991> skyeee: Technically it should install on the first hd of the system.  Thats the default anyway.  Right before the final "Install" button, there should be a summary display of all the settings.
[02:59] <bazhang> just install from repos uqs
[02:59] <forces> is there a UNR image with .ISO format?
[03:00] <skyeee> alright, thanks jander991, i'm going to try a reinstall and take it from there
[03:00] <mediatech> bazhang, i was afraid of that. Do you know of any drivers for intel chipsets like they do for nivida and ATI
[03:00] <uqs> bazhang, ok, but will this upgrade my 3.0 ff or install 3.5 as a new program?
[03:00] <jander991> skyee: Good luck, you can use pidgin to come back while you're installing
[03:00] <jing_> hi, I heard that ext3 is slow, i am considering to switch my system to another FS, which one is the best one for ubuntu?
[03:00] <skyeee> jander991, i'm currently on here with my eee pc, so i won't be going anywhere :3
[03:01] <ksc654> bruenig: How do I get to tty? Ubuntu goes straight into X and I can't see anything.
[03:01] <jander991> skyeee: ok, I am though, pizza time!
[03:01] <pincy> hi im looking for help with setting up wpa-psk when wext is crashing my system and atmel doesnt work
[03:01] <morphias> jing_ ext3 works just fine... i wouldn't worry about what eveyrone says man
[03:01] <bruenig> ksc654: control alt f1
[03:01] <iceglider> ksc654: ctrl+alt+ any F button
[03:02] <forces> is there a UNR image with .ISO format?
[03:02] <bazhang> forces, dont see one, only the img; you can install unr from repos if you wish though
[03:02] <bruenig> iceglider: probably not over f7
[03:02] <forces> and UNR in text mode?
[03:02] <bruenig> unless ubuntu has started using a ton of agetty's recently
[03:02] <forces> doesn't care if it's .img
[03:02] <iceglider> bruenig: not some are already used, that's true
[03:02] <SirStan> anyone run a dl380g4?
[03:02] <iceglider> not = no ^^
[03:02] <bazhang> forces, minimal install and unr package, or the img
[03:03] <bazhang> http://releases.ubuntu.com/9.04/  <--- forces
[03:03] <gza> when skype works that centranl'nyy processor of loawding 100%
[03:03] <Interphase> has anyone set up a fingerprint scanner on ubuntu? I don't have a thinkpad
[03:04] <uqs> bazhang, I did as you advised and just installed FF 3.5 from Synaptic Package Manager (and Gnome support for it) but I can still only find and start up FF 3.0
[03:04] <bazhang> uqs, its called shiretoko in your apps menu

[03:04] <matyo> hi again :D
[03:05] <matyo> i cant fix this boot problem after install windows :D
[03:05] <uqs> bazhang, aah, I see. why is that? :)
[03:05] <nsadmin> !fix grub
[03:05] <bazhang> http://is.gd/1reB3  <-- uqs
[03:05] <nsadmin> !grub
[03:06] <uqs> bazhang, thanks for that link. It cleared everything up :)
[03:07] <nsadmin> matyo: got that link?
[03:08] <morphias> jing_ do you seriously read everything b4 trying it for urself?  im using ext3 on ubuntu and everything works well enough for my needs
[03:09] <morphias> if i were you, id experiment a little aight man.
[03:09] <matyo> you mean the links from ubottu
[03:09] <nsadmin> yes
[03:09] <matyo> yeah but they dont help me :D
[03:09] <nsadmin> why?
[03:09] <jing_> morphias: thanks for your tips, i'll do more research on this issue

[03:10] <nsadmin> ok, actually never mind... I'm headed out
[03:11] <xim_> is truecrypt supported on the ubuntu kernel?
[03:12] <matyo> im do realy ideotic work my linux boot partition is 25gb im parse it to 15 gb for windows and 10gb for linux boot after that partiton parse im try to install windows but i cant becouse the new 15gb partition is formated by ubuntu and i delete it and recreate with windows installer meneger now windows work perfect but linux boomed :D and when i try fdisk -l from live cd response is Cannot open /dev/sda
[03:12] <cjae> sorry never mnd long day
[03:14] <iceglider> matyo have you checked that the partitions are still there? so that you formated them by accident with windows installer??
[03:14] <losher> jing_: that firefox/ext3 article was over a year old. Presumably it's long fixed by now. ext3 is a good, stable filesystem & first choice for beginners...
[03:14] <matyo> yeah they are there
[03:15] <bamball> matyo: did u sudo with fdisk?
[03:15] <matyo> no now they come :P :D
[03:16] <jing_> losher: how about ext4?
[03:16] <matyo> ok one more question now i can see the partitions boot partition os dev/sda1 how can i set dev/sda2 to boot partition _
[03:16] <ksc654> ctrl+alt+F? doesn't do anything. Any other ideas?
[03:16] <losher> jing_: ext4 on ubuntu is too new to be considered fully stable yet. Wait a couple of releases....
[03:16] <bamball> matyo: i think u need to toggle the boot flag
[03:18] <matyo> yeah but with manager i cant see partitions when im boot with live cd
[03:18] <iceglider> ksc654: if you've installed and started Ubuntu normally you should get a tty by using that? changed anything?
[03:18] <losher> matyo: try gparted instead. Also, you may want to add a swap partition for linux...
[03:19] <matyo> tnx
[03:19] <cwillu> ksc654, ctrl-alt-f1, not ctrl-alt-f
[03:19] <iceglider> matyo: btw is it win xp?
[03:19] <darkhamm_> how can i build a gstreamer pipe for sound juicer?
[03:20] <nixiepixel> matyo, Seriously.. you probably need to re-install your boot loader.
[03:20] <ksc654> cwillu: I tried all the F# keys.
[03:20] <losher> morphias: nothing wrong with reading up on what you're doing before you jump in. I wish more people did it...
[03:21] <cwillu> ksc654, you're just trying to get a vterm?  is x itself working?
[03:21] <nixiepixel> matyo, Did you re-install grub so you can see Windows?
[03:21] <ksc654> iceglider: The only change I've made recently was installing the ATI binary driver from the repository. That's what got me into this mess.
[03:21] <komet> formatting solves all issues
[03:21] <komet> =)
[03:21] <jander991> skyeee: How is the install coming?
[03:21] <jander991> Piranah: Any luck?
[03:21] <anonbadger> komet: so true
[03:22] <ksc654> cwillu: X is all garbled from installing the ATI driver. I'm trying to drop to a command line so I can troubleshoot.
[03:22] <skyeee> jander991, got slightly distracted, and then went and cleared out those partitions, just booting up to the live cd again to intall it now
[03:22] <cwillu> ksc654, boot up into the recovery mode kernel (just pick it off the list in grub when you boot)
[03:22] <jander991> skyeee: Too many shinies around? Oooh shiny...
[03:22] <iceglider> ksc654: hmm ok and you are at the login screen or where are you when you are trying ctrl-alt-F1?
[03:22] <cwillu> ksc654, the fail-safe xorg option that will show up there may be enough to get you going again, failing that, moving /etc/X11/xorg.conf out of the way may also work
[03:22] <firepants> anyone else having cpu performance issues with flash in 9.04?
[03:22] <skyeee> jander991, you have no idea... (was also distracted telling my friend how the infected mushroom concert was last night)
[03:23] <SirStan> 10k drives are peppy
[03:23] <tolde> if i wanted to create a .sh that uses a sudo command how does that work?
[03:23] <SirStan> tolde: "your doing it wrong"
[03:23] <tolde> ...
[03:23] <buttons840> i'm testing a tcp client, can anyone think of a port on my localhost I can connect to.   I just need to connect to any tcp, i wont actually be doing anything
[03:23] <ksc654> iceglider: Yes, I was at the login screen. I'm trying cwillu's suggestion right now.
[03:23] <SirStan> why on earth would you want a script to run a sudo script?
[03:24] <SirStan> buttons: ssh/22 ?
[03:24] <Guest65435> Any suggestions or hardware compatiblility sites for a processor/MB combo that's happy with ubuntu?  What about 64 bits?  If i install a 64 bit ubuntu, will there be progams lacking in the desktop environment?  What do I really want?
[03:24] <SirStan> Guest65435: why would you want 64bit?
[03:24] <tolde> i want macchanger to run on startup to change my mac address and it needs to do "sudo ifconfig wlan0 down"
[03:24] <buttons840> SirStan, 22 is refused like all the rest
[03:24] <xTheGoat121x> So, it seems that Firefox segfaults every time I try to start it. Trying to start it from terminal or safe mode provides no clues as to why.
[03:24] <SirStan> buttons840t: is sshd running?
[03:24] <buttons840> i guess i can just connect to some random internet site over tcp
[03:25] <ksc654> The recovery menu is giving me a couple options. One is xfix to auto repair graphic problems. I guess it's worth a shot. What do you guys think?
[03:25] <firepants> looking for help with cpu performance problems with Flash in a browser.
[03:25] <Guest65435> SirStan: Well all the new intel and AMD processors seem to be 64 bit.   It's a noob question I know
[03:25] <th0r> tolde: you might want to look at the NOPASSWD option in the sudoers file
[03:25] <SirStan> Guest65435: usually people dont care for 64bit unless they have a specific need.
[03:26] <Cydell> has anyone tried to play world of warcraft in a vbox windows guest?
[03:26] <darkhamm_> how can i build a gstreamer pipe for sound juicer?
[03:26] <skyeee> Cydell,  can't WINE run WoW fine?
[03:26] <Dulak> cydell: it's better under wine than in vbox
[03:26] <tolde> th0r: alright. do u know the location of the sudoers file offhand?
[03:26] <iceglider> 64bit on ubuntu can handle everything 32bit can and it also expands the memory limit
[03:26] <Dulak> cydell: vbox is still pretty choppy for 3d
[03:26] <jander991> skyeee: heh. Once you get to the point of almost having it install the system, there should be a way to view a summary of the installation. Let me know when you get there.
[03:26] <anonbadger> visudo
[03:26] <darkhamm_> someone can help me with Gstreamer's pipelines?
[03:27] <Cydell> Yeah wine runs it very well but I would like to play that and some other games
[03:27] <th0r> tolde: you need to edit it with visudo, best to research it a little as messing up that file can get you in real trouble
[03:27] <skyeee> alright jander991, choosing the hard drive i want to use now (largest continuous free space)
[03:27] <losher> buttons840: a good secure installation shouldn't leave any tcp ports open unless it's serving something specific...
[03:27] <rolarm86> hiya
[03:27] <Cydell> Just wanted to know what others had found out I don't like to dual boot
[03:27] <shinigami> someone can help me in skiputler plz
[03:27] <buttons840> losher, well that's what i have, because i can't find any tcp port to approach on my own system
[03:27] <tolde> th0r. alright man, ill look into it. thanks for the info
[03:27] <hdon> how do i restart samba? /etc/init.d/samba doesn't exist!
[03:27] <iMatter> ermac0, Firefox 3.0.11 in Ubuntu 9.04 doesn't download from alot of websites like i'll click download link and downloads will not pop up sometimes it'l give me a save file or open with window i click ok nothing ive even tried opening downloads window myself and apparently nothings downloading and since this happened i end up copying link and doing wget
[03:28] <xTheGoat121x> losher, hey, good to see you. Got it working last night!  :D
[03:28] <Guest65435> SirStan some people want more than 4 gigs of memory for instance.   Do they even make 32 bit processors these days or do you mean I just get a new processor and install the i386 ubuntu anyway?
[03:28] <iMatter> sorry ermac0 it auto did that
[03:28] <jander99> hdon: /etc/init.d/smbd I think.
[03:28] <losher> buttons840: that's a good thing!
[03:28] <buttons840> losher, decided i would just connect to a webserver on 80
[03:28] <hdon> jander99: also tried!
[03:28] <SirStan> Guest21538: all intel cpus are 32bit
[03:28] <shinigami> i couldn't find how
[03:28] <cwillu> iMatter, sounds like you've updated firefox (via update manager or whatever), and haven't quit firefox completely and reopened it yet
[03:28] <morphias> losher, i dont mind reading things, hell i do that myself.  i just dont like people who read things and they get so scared they dont try nothing for themselves.
[03:28] <losher> xTheGoat121x: hi there. So did it work like we thought. A new install with /usr on the SD worked ok?
[03:28] <th0r> hdon: I have /etc/init.d/samba
[03:28] <shinigami> skiputler work
[03:29] <hdon> th0r: what system are you on? i'm on jaunty
[03:29] <hdon> 9.04
[03:29] <skyeee> alright jander991, i'm there, says it's only touching this one hdd too., there is a button for advanced option though
[03:29] <morphias> of course then again, im a bit of a risk taker
[03:29] <SirStan> Guest21538: 64bit oses have more overhead .. so usually it doesnt make sense to run a 64bit os unless you (a) are stupid, (b) need to keep up with your (a) friends, or (c) need 16gb of ram on your database server.
[03:29] <firepants> should I downgrade to version 8 until the Flash cpu problem is resolved?
[03:29] <xTheGoat121x> losher, yes, except now I'm having an issue with updating the kernel and getting Firefox to run. Do you know if there's a way to get verbose error messages on a Firefox start?
[03:29] <th0r> hdon: yup...jaunty....ls /etc/init.d/samba returns the file
[03:29] <jander99> skyeee: (On laptop.)  Does it say hd(0) ?
[03:29] <buttons840> SirStan, what if i want to use my 4 gigs of ram?
[03:29] <hdon> th0r: can you tell me what this command yields? "dpkg -S /etc/init.d/samba"
[03:29] <losher> morphias: it's one of the problems of not having much experience, you can't fully evaluate risk...
[03:30] <SirStan> buttons840: a 32bit os will work better for 4 gb ram than a 64bit os
[03:30] <shinigami> hello someone can help me on skiputler
[03:30] <th0r> hdon: working
[03:30] <ksc654> Ok, xfix didn't solve anything. I guess I'm dropping to a root shell prompt.
[03:30] <buttons840> SirStan, really?  i didn't think it could use more than about 3 gigs on a 32-bit system
[03:30] <morphias> losher, you cant have experience without first taking a risk.
[03:30] <skyeee> jander99 it says "SCSI3 (0,0,0) (sdb) "
[03:30] <SirStan> buttons840: im not sure why you think that
[03:30] <morphias> anyhow.
[03:30] <losher> skyeee: just listened to their video. Like klezmer meets trance...
[03:30] <th0r> hdon: samba: /etc/init.d/samba
[03:30] <Dulak> SirStan: I beg to differ with you, on my laptop 64 bit runs noticeably faster than 32 bit, same distro and version
[03:30] <boss_mc> SirStan: you are hugely mistaken on most of what you've said lately
[03:30] <cwillu> SirStan, 32bit app can't access 4gb of memory, a big chunk of it is reserved for the kernel, as well as any memory mappings the app may be using
[03:31] <skyeee> (it's not scsi btw, i think that's just how my mobo deals with ata and sata both hooked up to it)
[03:31] <losher> morphias: actually, you can e.g. by reading about it. But we're getting way off-topic...
[03:31] <iceglider> All intel CPUs are not 32bit and the overhead for most systems are not really noticeable since most programs today are so memory hogging anyway
[03:31] <hdon> th0r: ah, thanks. i guess i didn't have that package installed, even though i have an /etc/samba/smb.conf
[03:31] <jander99> skyeee: okay, sdb is technically the 2nd hard drive.  If that's how it installed last time there's the reason its not booting.
[03:31] <SirStan> iceglider: all intel cpus are 32bit.
[03:31] <boss_mc> SirStan: also onboard devices remove alaiable addressed memory space
[03:31] <jander99> Can you choose sda?
[03:31] <firepants> @sirstan...32bit systems can only use 4gb TOTAL ram including the swap.
[03:31] <jander99> sda should be the first drive
[03:31] <cwillu> firepants, ... per process
[03:31] <morphias> losher - <bump> moving on :)
[03:31] <iceglider> "
[03:31] <iceglider> Intel® 64 architecture delivers 64-bit computing on server, workstation, desktop and mobile platforms when combined with supporting software.¹ Intel 64 architecture improves performance by allowing systems to address more than 4 GB of both virtual and physical memory."   You didn't even get my number right!
[03:31] <ksc654> I'm at a root prompt. Any idea how to troubleshoot X from here?
[03:31] <GaSoLine> #facebook
[03:31] <skyeee> jander99, i think it thinks my other hdd is the first one, which is my data one.. this hdd is ata, and the other one is sata)
[03:32] <skyeee> losher, yeah, they were really awesome live, and all the songs were amped up a bit to get the crowd moving
[03:32] <jander99> Okay, so your primary drive is IDE? What does it say for "sda" ?
[03:32] <SirStan> iceglider: http://www.phoronix.com/scan.php?page=article&item=998&num=2
[03:32] <skyeee> jander99, i opened advanced button, i think i've got what i need here
[03:33] <cwillu> ksc654, the recovery x option didn't work?
[03:33] <shinigami> i've a topcom phone and i don't know how it work on ubuntu, can someone help me?
[03:33] <SirStan> iceglider: there is doom running 10% slower on a 32 bit os.
[03:33] <skyeee> jander99, it has a checkbox for install bootloader, and gives me choice of hdd's
[03:33] <cwillu> ksc654, (should have been an option named something like that above the root prompt option)
[03:33] <boss_mc> SirStan: http://www.microdirect.co.uk/Home/Product/21806 for example is a 64bit processor from intel that's three years old...
[03:33] <SirStan> boss_mc: im sorry, but thats a 32 bit cpu.
[03:33] <SirStan> boss_mc: it has intels 64bit extensions
[03:33] <skyeee> jander99 choice of partitions to be mroe precise
[03:33] <jander991> skyeee: Okay, good.  You should be able to choose where to install grub.  Are there only two choices? (For the two drives you have)
[03:33] <ksc654> cwillu: Nope, it mentioned something about overwriting a custom config file. After it finished I tried booting again. No change.
[03:34] <skyeee> jander99 choice of partitions, so sda, sda5, sdb(ubuntu install here), sb1(xp install here) and sba5
[03:34] <iceglider> SirStan: yes cause Doom uses so small resources that the overhead is more noticeable, also doom was written for 32 and not 64bit
[03:34] <firepants> should I downgrade to version 8 until the Flash cpu problem is resolved?
[03:35] <Jeruvy> firepants: that could be many years
[03:35] <losher> firepants: downgrading is a lot of work. Are you sure there isn't an easier workaround on google or some such?
[03:35] <SirStan> iceglider: I just want to be clear here -- do you have ANY evidence a 64bit linux kernel running x and standard apps is faster than a 32bit os? or are you just arguing with me because "64 MUST BE BETTER THAN 31 BITS!"
[03:35] <jander99> skyeee: Lemme think here. Its been a while since I had a system with both SATA and IDE drives.
[03:36] <ctmjr> !ot
[03:36] <cwillu> ksc654, sudo nano /etc/X11/xorg.conf, look for a line that says driver "fglrx", and change it to driver "vesa".  That should get you up and running.  Then you can try setting it to "ati", and finally, using the hardware drivers app in the admin menu, reenable the proprietary driver
[03:36] <firepants> i've been searching any forum i can think of for a solution
[03:36] <cwillu> firepants, please refrain from pm'ing people without asking in channel first
[03:36] <jander99> skyeee: Your IDE drive is the data drive?
[03:36] <Dulak> SirStan: when I moved from 32bit to 64 bit on my laptop I noticed a big improvement, apps loading faster being the biggest thing I noticed
[03:36] <Guest65435> any ubuntu recomendation if I'm building a budget computer from scratch, like the $200 range for procesor and MB?  AMD or Intel?
[03:36] <skyeee> jander99 yeah, it seems silly to run my IDE as my boot drive and sata as my data drive, but i like to have dedicated data drives, and my sata is 1.5tb (and to your question, IDE is the OS drive)
[03:36] <SirStan> Guest21538: amd is usually cheaper at that price point -- but for $200? look used?
[03:37] <boss_mc> SirStan: As a matter of education, what is the difference?
[03:37] <firepants> why not pm? u made a comment, i replied. is there a problem?
[03:37] <cwillu> firepants, re: 32bit, "per process" means that the any given process can only use 4gb of address space, including the space reserved for the kernel.  On a machine with pae, you can still use more than 4gb memory, but any single program will still only be able to use ~3gb or so
[03:37] <Guest65435> just the MB and processor.
[03:37] <firepants> ah, kk. thx
[03:37] <cwillu> firepants, for one thing, pm's show up in a new tab at the end of a very long list of open channels here :p
[03:38] <cwillu> firepants, secondly, it prevents anyone else interested from seeing the replies :p
[03:38] <losher> firepants: pm'ing without asking first is considered intrusive (i.e. rude). Why? It just is...
[03:38] <iceglider> SirStan: I never said it ran faster, I said that it could do the same thing, also a application written for 64 runs just as good on a 64bit as a app for 32bit does on 32bit systems
[03:38] <boss_mc> !pm | firepants
[03:38] <SirStan> boss_mc: All intel cpu's are still designed to be 32 bit .. they have added 64bit extensions to them.. but they are still at their core 32bit .. and ahve design constraints around that.  Compared to an old DEC/Compaq Alpha 64bit CPU that ran 64bit code faser than 32 bit code.
[03:38] <jander99> skyeee: not a problem.  So, sda=1.5tb sata, sdb=system drive.
[03:38] <mytruehero> This may not be the right place for this question, but I'm trying to figure out GPG. I generated a keypair, encrypted a file, decrypted it, was prompted for my passphrase and all was cool. THEN I tried it with another file, and I wasn't prompted for my passphrase this time. Is there any way to require the passphrase each time the private key is used?
[03:38] <xTheGoat121x>  Shouldn't there only be one linux-image installed when upgrading a system?
[03:38] <Guest65435> pretty nice processors for 80 bucks or so.  Dual core and lots faster than the old athlon 2700 im running right now
[03:38] <SirStan> also -- I have 8gb ram on my Ubuntu 32bit machine.  Suck it.
[03:38] <boss_mc> SirStan: so one of these http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Itanium is 'real' 64bit? (and intel)
[03:38] <skyeee> jander99, exactly
[03:39] <Jeruvy> mytruehero: yes, don't cache the keyphrase
[03:39] <SirStan> boss_mc: mhm.. though.. those are all but defunct now :)
[03:39] <cwillu> SirStan, that has absolutely nothing to do with an ubuntu 64bit install though
[03:39] <SirStan> boss_mc: real or not.. modern intels (most stuff after the 3ghz mark P4) has 64bit extensions..
[03:39] <SirStan> has=have
[03:39] <jander99> skyeee: Okay. And the installer *wants* to install on sdb?  I see no reason why it shouldn't work.  What are the advanced options again?
[03:39] <jing_> losher:On Oct 11, 2008, the patches that mark ext4 as stable code were merged in the Linux 2.6.28 source code repositories,
[03:39] <ksc654> cwillu: xorg.conf is only 33 lines long. Most are comments. There's a "Device", "Monitor" and "Screen" section. "Device" has only one entry under it: Identifier "Configured Video Device"
[03:39] <jing_> morphias:On Oct 11, 2008, the patches that mark ext4 as stable code were merged in the Linux 2.6.28 source code repositories,
[03:39] <firepants> i can respect what u say but i dare say i don't agree with it. but that's just me and my opinion.
[03:39] <cwillu> ksc654, okay, in the device section, add a new line:  driver "vesa"
[03:40] <cwillu> ksc654, which version of ubuntu are you on again?
[03:40] <mytruehero> Jeruvy: hmm, ok. I'll dig around for how to do that.
[03:40] <Jeruvy> !ot | firepants
[03:40] <SirStan> my assertion was that UNLESS you need a single application to have access to over 3gb of ram (ie, database server) .. most people don't need a 64bit os.
[03:40] <mytruehero> Jeruvy: Thanks :)
[03:40] <SirStan> and that 64bit, on edge cases, is slower than 32bit.
[03:40] <ksc654> cwillu: Is X case sensitive?
[03:40] <losher> xTheGoat121x: old kernels usually remain unless you explicitly remove them, in case you need/want to drop back to an earlier kernel
[03:40] <pan_> SOGA
[03:40] <skyeee> jander99, it gives me a checkbox for install bootloader, and then a list of partitions to choose from: sda, sda5, sdb, sb1(xp here) and sdb5
[03:40] <SirStan> MySQL on 32gb ram is clearly faster than MySQL on 3gb RAM.
[03:40] <ksc654> cwillu: 9.04
[03:40] <cwillu> ksc654, I don't believe so
[03:40] <firepants> drop it, already. my comment was not off-topic.
[03:40] <nsadmin> how would I find the source package for postgresql-7.4
[03:41] <Jeruvy> mytruehero: the option is in system ->preferences _ encryption and passphrases
[03:41] <SirStan> Firefox on a 32bit kernel is faster than Firefox on a 64bit kernel.
[03:41] <pedestrianentran> I have an internet connection on my ubuntu machine i want to share with my roomates over a wireless network. What is a good way to do this, so I can setup an "account" for each person, and limit usage? Eg would running squid be a way of doing it?
[03:41] <pan_> ดก ดก ด กหดฟ ดกเเฟฦ
[03:41] <losher> jing_: no need to post twice, just put 2 names on the same line. Note that it takes more than simply declaring something stable to actually make it stable....
[03:41] <firepants> anyone else having extreme cpu usage with flash?
[03:41] <bazhang> SirStan, take chat to #ubuntu-offtopic please
[03:41] <xTheGoat121x> losher, well, the main thing is that it's having issues upgrading the kernel, and I'm not quite sure what the issue is.
[03:41] <pan_> 大家好
[03:41] <Bsims> I am using current jaunty I need to know if it will support AMD SB750 southbridge
[03:42] <bamball> SirStan: what kinda motherboard hv u got for 32gb ram?
[03:42] <Jeruvy> !english | pan_

[03:42] <skyeee> lol wow, thanks jander99
[03:42] <xTheGoat121x> losher, brb
[03:42] <losher> xTheGoat121x: when you say issues, what do you mean?
[03:42] <SirStan> bamball: Any modern server can take 32gb ram (my compaq DL380 sql server has 64gb ram @ work)
[03:42] <bazhang> SirStan, chatting about arch speeds if offtopic here
[03:42] <xTheGoat121x> losher, explain in a minute
[03:42] <skyeee> jander99, i suppsoe i could just slide off the side panel, and disconnect the data drive for the install
[03:42] <mirsal> back
[03:42] <losher> xTheGoat121x: no sweat...
[03:42] <ksc654> cwillu: Saved my changes and tried rebooting. Still scrambled. Anything else I can try?
[03:43] <SirStan> bazhang: a user asked if they would use 32 or 64bit.
[03:43] <bamball> SirStan: ah server board.. wish i have one of those at home
[03:43] <moymoy> !hardware | Bsims
[03:43] <SirStan> bamball: server board costs are eclipsed by the cost of 4gb dimm's :(.

[03:43] <Bsims> An earlier revision didn't work with jaunty so I am asking if ya don't know no need to be a jerk about it
[03:43] <Bob_Dole> So, I have an external DVD burner, on a USB interface. it never burns more than ~400MB before it fails...333MB files burn fine, 500MB files fail. Whats going on here?
[03:43] <SirStan> bazhang: thank you, again.
[03:44] <SirStan> Bob_Dole: does the drive not support underwriting?
[03:44] <cwillu> http://www.tuxradar.com/content/ubuntu-904-32-bit-vs-64-bit-benchmarks
[03:44] <salvadorfl> hello i need help when i open mozilla doesnt start my home page it get's all white  and the icons are disabled
[03:44] <firepants> when accessing flash-based websites, my cpu usage spikes and holds at nearly 100%. i've scoured all resources i can think of with no resolution
[03:44] <SirStan> cwillu: <bamball> ZOMG OFFTOPCI!!!~~!@~!@
[03:44] <salvadorfl> any idea ?
[03:44] <Bob_Dole> SirStan, It fails to burn 3GB and so too.. But I dunno what underwriting really is
[03:45] <mirsal> I need five minutes of a package maintainer's time for a little update about how to contribute a patch the right way. Anyone ?
[03:45] <Bob_Dole> what
[03:45] <Bob_Dole> what
[03:45] <Bob_Dole> SirStan, It fails to burn 3GB and so too.. But I dunno what underwriting really is
[03:45] <cwillu> bazhang, sorry, didn't see the offtopic warning before :p
[03:45] <th0r> salvadorfl: Edit-Preferences-Main tab...set a homepage
[03:45] <Bob_Dole> bazhang, you kicked him right as he was helping me! Dx
[03:45] <SirStan> Bob_Dole: underwriting lets the drive continue burning if the data stream fails to fill the buffer.
[03:46] <SirStan> Bob_Dole: most modern drives support it.
[03:46] <firepants> i've tried every resource i can think of, including google, ubuntu forums. i even tried ask.com. :P
[03:46] <SirStan> who posted the tuxradar link?
[03:46] <cwillu> I did
[03:48] <Bob_Dole> SirStan, ah. I don't really know. I think it's a fairly new drive. It's a sony, it's shiny, it supports dual layer.
[03:48] <jander99> skyeee: I would install Grub to sdb.  If it doesn't work, again. I would try sda.  I want to say Windows installs its bootloader on the drive it installs to (in this case sdb) and Grub needs to rewrite the windows boot sector.  I don't see why Windows would write its bootloader to sda.  I wish I could be of more help. :-\
[03:48] <dbdii407> For C++, are there any windows .h files that im able to install?
[03:48] <mordocai> I'm confused... I can type in console 'echo $[5*5]' and it will print out 25. however, if i put this in a script and run it, it will print out $[5*5]
[03:48] <SirStan> Bob_Dole: see if your burning app has a enable for underrun .. or .. whatever name it might have.
[03:48] <firepants> thanks all. i'll take that as an "i don't have an answer." i'll try elsewhere. nite.
[03:49] <skyeee> jander99 sdb(hard drive name labeled here) or sb1 (where xp is) or sdb5 (nothing labeled here)
[03:49] <ksc654> cwillu: Still no change after adding the line to xorg.conf. Anything else you can think of?
[03:49] <cwillu> ksc654, not offhand, but I _have_ been up for 22 hours :p
[03:50] <ksc654> cwillu: You too?
[03:50] <raziekiel> I had unallocated space on my drive, so I used a live boot to resize my /home partition form 10 to 30gigs, and now it shows it as 30 gigs, but 26gigs full already, I still have the same free space as before
[03:50] <raziekiel> Any ideas?
[03:51] <brian__> anyone know of any good web sites to download new panel applets
[03:51] <jander99> skyeee: I want to say sdb.  I hope I'm not wrong cause you'll have to try again :-\  Do you know the boot order in your system's BIOS? Is that too technical?
[03:51] <brian__> i just want to look for new things to add to my panel
[03:52] <Guest38417> does anybody know of a free open source peer to peer client that works on ubuntu like frost wire, apparently the one i downloaded wat to old or something
[03:52] <skyeee> jander99  boot order is floppy, dvd, then sdb iirc (was just checking it this morning before booting up the ubuntu cd)
[03:52] <ksc654> cwillu: Thanks for your help thus far.
[03:52] <jander99> skyeee: okay, so it should not be looking at your SATA drive at all for a bootloader.  I'd say install to "sdb" and let's see what happens.
[03:52] <ksc654> Anyone else have any ideas?
[03:52] <skyeee> jander99, i'll try sdb, and then if that fails, i'll try disconnecting the data drive and reinstalling, thanks for the help
[03:53] <mordocai> So, i made a -very- simple bash script that is supposed to multiply X by Y: http://pastebin.com/m41f6ef16. However, the final line (instead of being "X*Y = <value of X>*<value of Y> = <result of X * Y>") is: "X*Y = $X*$Y = $[X*Y]". This script is an example from the book i'm using to learn bash scripting. Any ideas why it doesn't work as planned?
[03:53] <skyeee> installing now
[03:53] <jander99> skyeee: good luck!
[03:53] <mordocai> s/final line/output
[03:54] <iceglider> SirStan: really curious here, could you please show some documentation that intel doesn't have 64bit cpus? cause I can't find anything saying that other than in reference to the fact that their own attempts to do a 64bit architecture failed and the now use AMDs 64bit arch. ?
[03:54] <iceglider> they*
[03:54] <ksc654> I'm running Ubuntu 9.04 on a laptop and I'm trying to either get the ATI binary drivers to work or else remove them and get the open source drivers working again.
[03:55] <bazhang> iceglider, please take this discussion to #ubuntu-offtopic
[03:55] <Bob_Dole> Uh, ATI dropped support for -a lot- of cards in the recent drivers..and the old driver won't work with ubuntu 9.04
[03:55] <vprm> ubottu-> i look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/LostPassword , but i can't logon to ubuntu.. any ideas??
[03:56] <bryan> Does anyone know how to fix the messed up java sound problem?
[03:56] <ksc654> Bob_Dole: I'm starting to figure that out. Why is it even available in the package list if it doesn't work?
[03:58] <leaf-sheep> !ati | ksc654
[03:59] <losher> vprm: what happened when you tried the procedure on the web page?
[04:00] <vprm> i can not find 'root@something'  i'm lost.  (sorry)
[04:01] <losher> vprm: so you weren't able to find & boot 'rescue mode' ? Were you able to get to a prompt at all?
[04:02] <YesImaLinuxN00B> question i have today is can i create an ubuntu live cd with a custom compiled kernel in it?
[04:02] <eyotechnologi> hehe its 5:00 o'clock in the morning :D
[04:02] <losher> !remaster
[04:03] <losher> YesImaLinuxN00B: see above on remastering....
[04:03] <vprm> losher-> i got to the system sellection. i chose 'recuse mode' but couldn't stop ..
[04:03] <eyotechnologi> muahahaha
[04:03] <YesImaLinuxN00B> ok thanks all i will look into
[04:04] <juanbond> hey guys, just installing 9.04 on my new machine and was wondering if i should default to ext3 or ext4?
[04:04] <losher> vprm: couldn't stop? I'm not sure what you mean by that...
[04:04] <richardcavell> anyone know when Dasei will be on next?
[04:04] <losher> juanbond: ext3. And frankly I'd use 8.04...
[04:05] <juanbond> why not 9.04?
[04:05] <losher> juanbond: various problems...
[04:06] <arand> vprm: are you ate the recoevry root console at the moment?
[04:06] <arand> s/ate/at/
[04:06] <losher> juanbond: various problems, sound, flash, ext4, other annoying stuff...
[04:06] <juanbond> are there work arounds?
[04:06] <YesImaLinuxN00B> losher: i use 9.04 and i have to say the only issue i had was the graphics issue so far
[04:07] <vprm> losher-> i get to the system (ubuntu, ubuntu recoovery mode,other os, ms xp). i seleted recovery mode.
[04:07] <losher> juanbond: oh yeah, and graphics issues, thanks YesImaLinuxN00B
[04:07] <ilmpk> 9.04 only thing that annoys me is AMD/ATI, and that's nothing I can blame Ubuntu for.  :-\
[04:07] <YesImaLinuxN00B> np
[04:07] <thiebaude> does anyone know what gnome remote desktop server does?
[04:07] <nsadmin> how would I go about permanently allowing root logins?
[04:08] <losher> juanbond: yes, but you have to hunt for them, particularly sound, no one solution seems to fit all...
[04:08] <YesImaLinuxN00B> nsadmin: i think u edit your sudoers file
[04:08] <EnragedOstrich> Hey, How do I make myself Root?
[04:08] <harold> sudo -i
[04:09] <nsadmin> can I do that permanently?
[04:09] <YesImaLinuxN00B> or su
[04:09] <harold> what do you mean "permanently"?
[04:09] <ilmpk> being root always is a bad idea
[04:09] <nsadmin> that is root would have a separate password, etc
[04:09] <arand> vprm: and do you get to the root console? (root@something)
[04:09] <Pirate_Hunter> can soemone explain what would be a good port for ssh other than the standard port 22?
[04:09] <YesImaLinuxN00B> nsadmin: yes very bad
[04:09] <nsadmin> ilmpk: I've been doing this for 15 years :P
[04:09] <[Pwner]John> =o
[04:09] <jander99> skyeee: Luck?
[04:10] <raziekiel> I had unallocated space on my drive, so I used a live boot to resize my /home partition form 10 to 30gigs, and now it shows it as 30 gigs, but 26gigs full already, I still have the same free space as before. Any ideas?
[04:10] <YesImaLinuxN00B> nsadmin: i learned from experience only be root when needed
[04:10] <skyeee> jander99, nice timing, it's loading grub right as you sent that
[04:10] <nsadmin> and computers in general for 30... I'm not trying to offend anyone, but I am trying to get the information of how to do it
[04:10] <jander99> skyeee: So you're able to boot? Excellent.
[04:10] <arand> nsadmin: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo has info on those matters I think...
[04:10] <EnragedOstrich> can someone help me with this... http://sylvarwolflinux.wordpress.com/2007/11/15/installing-the-epsxe-playstation-1-emulator-in-ubuntu/
[04:11] <bazhang> nsadmin, root shell? sudo -i
[04:11] <EnragedOstrich> What does cd ~ mean?
[04:11] <nsadmin> YesImaLinuxN00B: at first I was root constantly, for like 3 years straight...
[04:11] <skyeee> it would seem that way jander99, thanks for the help! (grub is still loading)
[04:11] <dennister> anyone know the conditions under which livecd just will not load completely? it's a p4 machine with 512 mb ram, integrated graphics
[04:11] <Nameless_au> raziekiel: are you using VLM?
[04:11] <skyeee> there it goes
[04:11] <bazhang> nsadmin, better leave the root password alone  /msg ubottu root
[04:11] <harold> EnragedOstrich: ~ means home directory
[04:11] <richardcavell> everyone, where can I find a log of my conversations in xchat?
[04:11] <nsadmin> bazhang: thanks, I know that solution... I understand the warnings and I can handle whatever's needed
[04:12] <bazhang> EnragedOstrich, cd is change directory to that
[04:12] <losher> Pirate_Hunter: any port in the upper ranges is fine. I use 2222...
[04:12] <bazhang> richardcavell, in xchat preferences -->logging
[04:12] <arand> dennister: tried some kernel boot options? acpti=off is a common one...
[04:12] <nsadmin> again, not trying to offend, just trying to find out how to make the system the way I'm used to it
[04:12] <arand> dennister: (make that acpi=off)
[04:12] <raziekiel> Nameless_au: I'm not sure what that means :(
[04:12] <bazhang> richardcavell, these channels are logged as well
[04:12] <EnragedOstrich> so should I just type everything EXACTLY like it is in http://sylvarwolflinux.wordpress.com/2007/11/15/installing-the-epsxe-playstation-1-emulator-in-ubuntu/  ???
[04:12] <bazhang> !1984 > richardcavell
[04:12] <dennister> unusual situation, i install kubuntu on user's machine, didn't have to change xorg.conf at all to watch dvds, user takes box home, and can't get xserver to load...just grey screen with x in middle...only things changed were monitor, keyboard and mouse...she can't even get livecd to load fully...any ideas what happened?
[04:12] <Pirate_Hunter> losher, i see so it make no difference which port i choose (thought that ssh had to run on certain ports)
[04:13] <jander99> skyeee: Awesome. Glad I could help!
[04:13] <arand> nsadmin: was https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo not what you were looking for?
[04:13] <nsadmin> arand: I want the option to not involve sudo in any way.
[04:13] <dennister> arand: unfortunately, i don't have the machine here anymore...did some phone tech support this morning, and that's how I found livecd wouldn't fully load, and that xorg.conf had been rewritten automatically
[04:13] <rainbowinfinity> someone please help me turn off folding at home!!!  it's going to burn out my processor
[04:13] <Nameless_au> raziekiel: ok, you had to make partitions when installing ubuntu... did you make them automatically or manually? Also, are you dual booting with windows?
[04:14] <losher> Pirate_Hunter: since you asked for an *explanation*, I should mention that choosing a random port that only you know makes it hard for hackers to find your server, because they have 65535 possible ports to try. That's why people do it...
[04:14] <juanbond> losher: is 8.10 cool?
[04:14] <skyeee> yeah, thanks again jander99, now off i go installing drivers and software. (haven't used linux for over 2 years now i think, i've missed it)
[04:14] <vprm> yeh - i fix my password problem, thanx for the help...   :-)
[04:14] <juanbond> 8.04 is soo last year :P
[04:14] <raziekiel> Nameless_au: Manually, and yes, windows is on a second harddrive than linux, but I dual boot
[04:14] <Nameless_au> lol juanbond
[04:14] <Pirate_Hunter> losher, ahh thanks that cleared a lot of things
[04:14] <ilmpk> nsadmin: there is a section on the link arand posted showing how to remove the password prompt for sudo.  unless you are saying you don't want to have to type sudo/su at all to perform root actions?
[04:15] <juanbond> i mean is everyone having issues with 9.04 or certain sound cards/graphics/etc?
[04:15] <dennister> arand: we also tried, in recovery mode, the fix xorg option, but that didn't do anything either,
[04:15] <richardcavell> okay thanks. I was having a PM session with Desai last night but we were configuring my router and I got cut off. Is there any way I can contact him?  Normally I can right-click on a user's name to get his username and domain name at least.
[04:15] <EnragedOstrich> can someone tell me why this is happening?
[04:15] <EnragedOstrich> root@KublaKhan:~# cd ~
[04:15] <EnragedOstrich> root@KublaKhan:~# mkdir ePSXe_install
[04:15] <EnragedOstrich> root@KublaKhan:~# cd mkdir ePSXe_install
[04:15] <EnragedOstrich> -bash: cd: mkdir: No such file or directory
[04:15] <FloodBot2> EnragedOstrich: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[04:15] <Nameless_au> raziekiel: ok, did u make just one big partition or did you make a /boot, swap and ext3 partition/s?
[04:15] <losher> juanbond: 8.10 is ok, but 8.04 is on long term support, so you can keep it around for a while. Being 'last year' is for fashionistas. Real nerds prefer stable systems....
[04:15] <moymoy> !paste | EnragedOstrich
[04:15] <raziekiel> Nameless_au: I have a boot, a swap, a root dir, and a /home partition
[04:16] <urthmover> EnragedOstrich: that is a PSX emulator
[04:16] <lwells> I just installed Epiphany, but it does not show up in the app menu, why not?
[04:16] <YesImaLinuxN00B> lwells: logout then back in
[04:16] <bastidrazor> EnragedOstrich, cd ePSXe_install .. don't include mkdir
[04:16] <Nameless_au> raziekiel: ok, did u install windows first or ubuntu?
[04:16] <lwells> ok
[04:16] <pagoda> i'm trying to upgrade from hardy to intrepid.  i started the update process, then hit cancel because i wans't ready to d/l all that stuff.  now i want to update and the update manager doesn't give me the option anymore.  what should i do?
[04:16] <moymoy> EnragedOstrich: and also you made the directory ePSXe_install, not mkdir .. so you can't cd into a dir that doesn't exist
[04:16] <raziekiel> Nameless_au: Windows I'm pretty sure
[04:16] <losher> EnragedOstrich: because it's 'cd ePSXe_install' not 'cd mkdir ePSXe_install'
[04:17] <arand> nsadmin: there is also instructions in that link on how to re-enable root login...
[04:17] <Nameless_au> raziekiel: pretty  sure? lol...
[04:17] <EnragedOstrich> I am just following this guide.. http://sylvarwolflinux.wordpress.com/2007/11/15/installing-the-epsxe-playstation-1-emulator-in-ubuntu/
[04:17] <dennister> and since recovery mode's fix xserver option didn't work, I'm afraid xorg's 'dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg' command won't help either
[04:17] <usr13> richardcavell: If the person's not here, not much we can do.
[04:17] <moymoy> pagoda: try pressing ALT+F2 and type in `update-manager -d`
[04:17] <pagoda> moymoy, nope same thing.  the option to upgrade to 8.10 doesn't appear at the top
[04:17] <nsadmin> oh there is? ok, so I'll read it in that case... the title didn't inspire me but if you say it's there...
[04:17] <raziekiel> Nameless_au: It's been a long time since I did a fresh install, but windows was first
[04:18] <losher> EnragedOstrich: it's a typo in the guide....
[04:18] <rainbowinfinity> my computer sound like it's about to take off and fly away...can someone please help me turn off folding at home...i can't access it through the system monitor
[04:18] <EnragedOstrich> haha
[04:18] <moymoy> pagoda: have you tried using apt-get instead? `sudo apt-get dist-upgrade`
[04:18] <arand> nsadmin: look at the index ;)
