[14:24] <DRebellion> bloodboy: takes you to a virtual terminal
[14:24] <hanophix33> i just bought a d-link wireless card, can anyone help me set it up?
[14:24] <nathan__> Jack_Sparrow: It loads the setup off of the cd, but at random times through the setup it gives an insufficient memory error
[14:24] <bloodboy> ok
[14:24] <SpaceAviator> switches you to terminal 1 bloodboy
[14:24] <bloodboy> thanks
[14:24] <DRebellion> bloodboy: ctrl+alt+f7 will bring you back

[14:25] <DRebellion> bloodboy: when booted

[14:25] <Grab> hi! how can i show the date, as well as the time, in irssi logs ?
[14:26] <dimedo> hi again, is there anyone who has an idea why there are no more shudown/reboot options in my Gnome Logoff menu?
[14:26] <Jack_Sparrow> BULDUKLU: Please stop with the caps
[14:26] <nathan__> Jack_Sparrow: To the hard drive. I spent all of yesterday installing xubuntu but its slower then win98 anyhow, so I want to go back to it.
[14:26] <vonSmallhausen> I don't seem to get compiz-fusion to work. When I try to enable desktops effects I get the message "Desktop effects could not be enabled." Anyone know what could possibly be wrong?

[14:26] <hanophix33> anyone know how to get a d-link wirless card working?
[14:26] <Jack_Sparrow> nathan__: Then you need to ask in #windows.. it isnt a Ubuntu problem..
[14:26] <Grab> hi! how can i show the date, as well as the time, in irssi logs ?

[14:27] <nathan__> Jack_Sparrow: Yes sir :P
[14:27] <Seveas> dimedo, did you install kubuntu things?
[14:27] <dimedo> i installed Qt
[14:27] <ackbahr> Hi there! I'm trying to have GRUB startup my system with runlevel 4 (which I transformed to suit my needs), but I can't figure out where in the GRUB entry to specify the runlevel....
[14:27] <Jack_Sparrow> nathan__: How much ram are you running in that box
[14:27] <Seveas> dimedo, maybe dbus broke on your system -- try logging out and logging in
[14:28] <danand> ackbahr - _think_ you just add the four on the end :)
[14:28] <dimedo> Seveas: dosn't work, i already relogged and rebooted a lot of times since that happened
[14:28] <chenyu> jrib: hi?
[14:28] <ackbahr> danand: But at the end of which line?
[14:28] <Seveas> dimedo, k, pastebin the output of ps axu
[14:28] <jrib> chenyu: yes?
[14:29] <chenyu> jrib: thank you
[14:29] <danielski_pl> got my gnome back up and running, though everytime i try to start firefox - non free, it restarts my gdm back to login anyone know why?
[14:29] <nathan__> Jack_Sparrow: 192mb
[14:30] <danand> ackbahr - your kernel line - you can do this by editing your /boot/grub/menu.lst file or by pressing e when grub loads
[14:30] <Jack_Sparrow> nathan__: How much of that is shared with your video card?
[14:31] <mogggee> DCC SEND lololol_epicfail_lololololol 0 0 0
[14:31] <ackbahr> danand: I did that, and it strated in rc2 instead....
[14:31] <nathan__> Jack_Sparrow: I'm not sure, its a laptop that I haven't touched in awhile
[14:32] <Jack_Sparrow> nathan__: Either way, if you are going back to 98.. one of the better windows versions.. Itisnt an issue for here.  But reducing the shared video will help with the linux install
[14:32] <dimedo> Seveas: http://de.pastebin.ca/890147
[14:32] <ackbahr> danand: By the way, do you happen to know what the "ro" option at the end of the kernel line is?
[14:32] <InspectorCluseau> read only
[14:33] <danand> ackbahr - read only
[14:33] <nathan__> Jack_Sparrow: How would reduce the shared video inside of xubuntu?
[14:33] <ackbahr> danand: And what is made read only by this option?
[14:33] <danielski_pl> hey, can some one help, everytime i start firefox-non-free it logs me out of my current session
[14:33] <bloodboy> hello guys
[14:33] <bloodboy> i just tried it
[14:33] <bloodboy> epic failure
[14:33] <Seveas> dimedo, I'm out of clues -- dbus, gdm and gnome-settings-daemon are up, you should see those icons
[14:33] <Jack_Sparrow> nathan__: You cant do it inside the os.. it is a bios thing..
[14:33] <rage_ext> hello I've abandond windows for good now. =) But now I've got some issues with my battery life time. It has become shorter and now. Is there a way to adjust the power consumtion moore effective?
[14:34] <bloodboy> i need my GNOME gui interface
[14:34] <Seveas> !enter | bloodboy
[14:34] <ubotu> bloodboy: Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation!
[14:34] <danand> ackbahr - Your root file system is mounted read only initially at boot time (I think)
[14:34] <nathan__> Jack_Sparrow: K Thanks for your help
[14:34] <jacob_> I just wiped out my /boot directory contents. How'd I regenerate them again? :(
[14:34] <Jack_Sparrow> nathan__: np
[14:34] <InspectorCluseau> danielski_pl,  Firefox is probably crashing X....and then the system restarts X
[14:34] <bloodboy> how do i load the GUI interface in the CTRL - ALT - F1 mode?
[14:34] <ackbahr> danand: Which seems a good idea.... Well, thank you very much, I'm going to try this again then! See you probably in a few minutes!
[14:34] <hanophix33> jack_sparrow: know anything about d-link wireless cards?
[14:34] <dimedo> Seveas: i just see: Switch user, Lock screen, Log out, Hibernate, Suspend
[14:34] <danand> ackbahr - luck
[14:35] <rage_ext> I've lost about 2 hours of runtime...
[14:35] <khice> hi
[14:35] <danielski_pl> InspectorClauseau: how do i fix it, remove and reinstall?
[14:35] <bloodboy> CTRL - ALT - F1 does not fix my problem
[14:35] <Jack_Sparrow> hanophix33: I had some luck with the ones that had bcm43xx chipsets byusing fwcutter.. but I am not a wireless kind of guy
[14:35] <jacob_> I really need to figure out how to get the contents of /boot back again. I ran "sudo grub-install" and that got grub, and I tried "update-initramfs" but that only put a new initramfs file in - I know there's more than that. :(
[14:35] <jrib> bloodboy: you get a terminal right?
[14:35] <bloodboy> yup
[14:35] <InspectorCluseau> danielski_pl,  Got me...that might be a plan
[14:35] <dimedo> has anyone else any idea why i don't see the reboot and shutdown buttons in my gnome logout menu anymore?
[14:35] <hanophix33> jack_sparrow: just bought one yesterday, thought it would be plug n play, but its not
[14:36] <bloodboy> what occured to the GUI like the Linux Live cd?
[14:36] <Jack_Sparrow> hanophix33: Find your chipset and check the wiki
[14:36] <InspectorCluseau> danielski_pl, Check your logs and see if therre is an error message
[14:36] <jrib> bloodboy: what exactly do you want to do?
[14:36] <bloodboy> i need to repair my non-booting Ubuntu system
[14:36] <Jack_Sparrow> !wifi > hanophix33
[14:36] <bloodboy> it stalls when loading the Network Manager at bootup
[14:37] <bloodboy> and i can't get to the login screen
[14:37] <TheMafia> is there a special way you are suppose to print labels with a ptouch thermal printer? do I just need to create a label template in oowriter or something like that?
[14:37] <jrib> bloodboy: ok.  So does hitting ctrl-alt-f1 actually get you a terminal?
[14:38] <bloodboy> yes
[14:38] <InspectorCluseau> I think OO has a bunch of buit-in templates
[14:38] <techno_freak> jrib, it takes you to console, or 100% command line
[14:38] <nathan__> Jack_Sparrow: I can't find where to change the shared memory in the Bios
[14:38] <jrib> bloodboy: so that gives you access to your system and you can modify what you want
[14:38] <bloodboy> but i don't know what to do
[14:39] <rsfriends> hello
[14:39] <bloodboy> i need to disable the wireless drivers at bootup
[14:39] <cagri87> hi
[14:39] <Jack_Sparrow> nathan__: Not sure of your hardware.. but it is not always clear, but is always marked video something
[14:39] <bloodboy> how come a driver misconfiguration can cause all of this?
[14:39] <nathan__> Jack_Sparrow: I'll take another look
[14:39] <cagri87> hello i have a simple question??
[14:40]  * InspectorCluseau wonders why the 'houscleaning' has to be spammed on the channel......

[14:42] <Jack_Sparrow> troubled: We gotta do housecleaning sometime
[14:42] <nathan__> Jack_Sparrow: I can't find it anywhere, do you know of any ways to make xubuntu faster? Or another distro thats lightweight and has wireless support?
[14:42] <troubled> PriceChild: didnt you guys have a ban limit increase here?

[14:44] <danielski_pl> and now its conflicting with gdm and i have to remove it but how?
[14:44] <Seveas> troubled, something like that

[14:45] <bloodboy> jrib: can you tell me the command?
[14:46] <bullgard4> English help wanted. What is the name of a string that you type in a field in order that a search engine prints documents which match that string?
[14:46] <bloodboy> plz anyone help me
[14:46] <Seveas> bullgard4, search string, query
[14:46] <bullgard4> Seveas: Thank you very much.
[14:46] <jrib> bloodboy: yes, it gives you a root terminal.  You can do the same thing if you get to ctrl-alt-f1.  "repair my system files" does not really make sense.   We need to figure out what the problem is first.  Describe exactly what happens
[14:47] <cagri87> jrib: i am trying to install amsn plugins

[14:51] <Pentarex> can anyone help me with one iso file
[14:51] <ompaul> done
[14:51] <DRebellion> Pentarex: what is the problem?
[14:51] <nemilar> Pentarex: what's the problem?
[14:51] <astro76> danielski_pl: apt-get remove firefox
[14:51] <DRebellion> Is this like a weekly ban clearance?
[14:51] <bullgard4> jrib: Yes, I tried using "" before I posted here. Tracker Search will consider the first part of the search string only.
[14:51] <Dimitree> Guys any idea on how to install Flash player for Opera ?
[14:51] <klndz3> What do you folks recommend, should I get my wireless networking on Roaming, or should I just keep certain wireless networks settings in my System > Administration > Network?
[14:51] <ompaul> DRebellion, with a bit of extra vim
[14:51] <Pentarex> DRebellion: i talk with u but didnt help me too much the info u give me
[14:51] <cagri87> jrib: thanks buddy it worked but when i need to copy files to /usr/ directory what should i do??
[14:52] <Zimmer> one simplistic question here, for the noob. Am I correct in saying that Ubuntu doesnt support INtel 64 bit architecture?
[14:52] <danielski_pl> astro76: no luck
[14:52] <Pentarex> DRebellion: i cannot find proper info for how to mount game and then isntall it
[14:52] <astro76> danielski_pl: why what happens?
[14:52] <nemilar> Zimmer: it does, use the amd64 version
[14:52] <plux> Zimmer: it does support it, use the amd64 iso
[14:52] <Zimmer> nemilar: I have, and it doesn't boot up
[14:52] <TheMafia> no matter what I do my brother laber printers prints portrait, is there some trick I am missing?
[14:52] <Zimmer> the install screen appears
[14:52] <Zimmer> and then the screen goes blank
[14:52] <danielski_pl> E:\ couldn't find "blahblah"
[14:53] <nemilar> Zimmer: it /should/ work
[14:53] <jrib> cagri87: you really should never need to do that.  If you need to touch something outside of your HOME, then maybe it is a config file in /etc.  Or maybe you install some custom stuff that's not packaged in /usr/local/ or /opt.  Having said that, read the page ubotu links you to next:
[14:53] <Pentarex> nemilar: my problem is with quake 3 for linux i cant insatll it
[14:53] <jrib> !sudo > cagri87 (read the private message from ubotu)
[14:53] <plux> Pentarex: try ioquake3
[14:53] <astro76> danielski_pl: we could help if you pastebin the exact error, I don't know what couldn't find blahblah is supposed to be
[14:53] <nemilar> Zimmer: that sounds more like a video card driver issue to me, or something of that matter
[14:53] <Zimmer> I got an 8800GTS
[14:53] <Pentarex> nemilar: is this quake 3 arena ?
[14:53] <nemilar> ugh
[14:53] <DRebellion> Pentarex: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Games/Native/QuakeIIIArena
[14:53] <danielski_pl> astro76: E: Could not open lock file /var/lib/dpkg/lock - open (13 Permission denied)
[14:54] <nemilar> Zimmer: I've had lots of problems on a friend's computer with that card
[14:54] <Zimmer> so basically, I can't install it
[14:54] <nemilar> danielski_pl: you're not root
[14:54] <nemilar> danielski_pl: sudo [whatever you're doing]
[14:54] <Zimmer> wow, and I thought linux was a usable os
[14:54] <bullgard4> jrib: Inserting '%20' for the space character does not help either: It functions also as a delimiter.
[14:54] <Zimmer> fuck. That is just annoying
[14:54] <astro76> danielski_pl: need to use sudo
[14:54] <nemilar> !ohmy | Zimmer
[14:54] <ubotu> Zimmer: Please watch your language and topic to help keep this channel family friendly.
[14:54] <DRebellion> !language | Zimmer
[14:54] <Zimmer> sorry
[14:54] <Pentarex> DRebellion: i will check it out 10nx
[14:55] <nemilar> Zimmer, I'm sure if you google for "ubuntu 8800 GTS" you can get it setup
[14:55] <danielski_pl> nemilar:, astro76: thanx guys :P
[14:55] <ompaul> Zimmer,  it works - just your hardware supplier is the one who is not working with gnu/linux
[14:55] <alex__> How come my screen is using 1280 1024 res whereas my xorg.conf doesn't mention it ?
[14:55] <len> I still cant log in, I am the right user now for .Xauthority (-rw------- 1 len len 122 2008-02-03 15:51 /home/len/.Xauthority). I only cant login my gnome desktop, I am typing this from fxce which I just have installed. The fail-safe gnome does also not work
[14:56] <bullgard4> jrib: What is the escape sequence for a space character in Unix? Is it '\ '?
[14:56] <DRebellion> bullgard4: yes
[14:56] <nemilar> bullgard4: that works
[14:56] <jrib> bullgard4: yes, that doesn't work either :)
[14:56] <mar77i> lol this rocks hard. just left full-screen in-game, i had a windows desktop... leaving that full-screen mode i've got ubuntu in front of me... XD
[14:57] <luca> i can access a shared ubuntu directory from vista easy with read write support ... but why i cannot even browser a ntfs partition hdd mounted  in ubuntu which is also shared ?
[14:57] <danielski_pl> Zimmer: I havent seen a ubuntu version that let me use my 8800GTX to its limits or even at all detect it
[14:57] <klndz3> My actual computer clock is correct, but all my applications have the incorrect time, and all the webpages that I visit have the incorrec time, how can I rectify this?
[14:57] <bullgard4> DRebellion: Thank you. But as you may have just read from jrib, that does not work either.
[14:57] <DRebellion> bullgard4: that is the escape sequence for a space
[14:57] <nemilar> klndz3: your locale set properly?
[14:58] <klndz3> Nimlar: Yes, EST.
[14:58] <bullgard4> DRebellion: Yes but the 'Tracker Search' program apparently has its own logic.
[14:58] <exneo> hey how do I install .bin files
[14:58] <exneo> I have an mmorpg I want to try
[14:58] <nemilar> exneo: chmod +x filename.bin && ./filename.bin
[14:58] <astro76> exneo: chmod +x file.bin && sudo ./file.bin
[14:58] <DRebellion> bullgard4: pfft.. i would use locate
[14:58] <exneo> is there a graphical fontend
[14:58] <bullgard4> exneo: The best way is to install its associated DEB program package.
[14:59] <DRebellion> exneo: there may be when you execute it
[14:59] <nemilar> exneo: yeah, you can right-click on it, properties, permissions, allow execution
[14:59] <bullgard4> DRebellion: locate is slow in comparison with Tracker Search.
[14:59] <exneo> so do I put && or just make another command
[14:59] <DRebellion> bullgard4: locate is *fast*
[14:59] <exneo> sure I'll try that
[14:59] <bad_cables> what version is Debian Java up to? i need to install  v 1.2 for a multimedia app
[14:59] <astro76> exneo: you should really launch it from the terminal, you can use the && exactly as I wrote
[14:59] <Zimmer> nemilar: How can I make it work if I can't even get past the boot screen? :/
[14:59] <nemilar> Zimmer: did you see if there was anything helpful via google?
[15:00] <sixstorm> has Debian planned on releasing a new version any time soon?
[15:00] <bullgard4> DRebellion: I know. But Tracker Search looks for text within files.
[15:00] <astro76> sixstorm: they've just released 4.0 after years
[15:00] <astro76> sixstorm: I wouldn't hold my breath, that's what Ubuntu is for ;)
[15:01] <sixstorm> did 4.0 release last year?  i thought it had been out for a while . . .
[15:01] <DRebellion> bullgard4: locate <string> | xargs grep -i <string>  :P
[15:01] <Zimmer> nemilar: the best thing I could find was something that you had to install on your already existing Liunx
[15:01] <ompaul> sixstorm, there is no 4.0
[15:01] <sixstorm> ompaul, are you sure?
[15:02] <ompaul> sixstorm, very very very sure - try month and year i.e. 7.04
[15:02] <sputnick_> hi there. is there Kubuntu image for PXE ?
[15:02] <exneo> thanx guys its installing your rule
[15:02] <ompaul> sixstorm, something else in my mind
[15:02] <nemilar> Zimmer: you didn't search very hard ;) "ubuntu 8800" shows that you can install it by started the LiveCD in graphical safemode... https://answers.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+question/5852
[15:02] <sputnick_> I finf dor Ubuntu but I don't want this one
[15:02] <bullgard4> DRebellion: Thank you for your help. I used to take a similar command. It sometimes take 45 minutes to find a search string though.
[15:02] <ompaul> sixstorm, yeap they are at 4.0
[15:02] <nemilar> Zimmer: there are various other methods listed via that search string as well
[15:03] <bullgard4> DRebellion: takes
[15:03] <bad_cables> what version of java is Ubuntu up to?

[15:22] <Enselic> bad_cables: whch app?
[15:22] <faris> whats the difference between ubuntu 6.06LTS and 7.10 and wich is better for a newbie ??
[15:22] <Enselic> faris: the latest is best
[15:22] <bad_cables> Enselic: its an audio editor called AudioCutter
[15:22] <Enselic> faris: they differ in how long after their release they will get updates
[15:22] <hellion0> faris: at this point, go with the latest version.
[15:22] <astro76> sarthor: man rename, it uses regular expressions
[15:22] <Enselic> bad_cables: hav you tried Audacity?
[15:22] <bad_cables> Enselic: yeah
[15:22] <dakira> doug__: ALT+F2 -> gksu "gedit /etc/fstab"
[15:22] <LjL> Enselic: that's not a very good message to give... although it might apply in this specific case

[15:23] <astro76> sarthor: and consider copying a few files to another directory to test with
[15:23] <jrib> len: tried deleting those files?
[15:23] <bpowell1978> Anyone know much about mounting shares from windows
[15:23] <len> jrib, yes I did
[15:23] <dakira> doug__: no.. that is the entry for my ext3 partition
[15:24] <faisal_d> Spunky_Monkey: cheers.. thanx for keeping me in mind
[15:24] <ompaul> crackhead_25_, ehh this is a support channel ;-) please don't do that, nice to know it works though
[15:24] <bad_cables> Enselic: i need to install Audacity tho, it looks like the most complete project for linux
[15:24] <jrib> len: does it happen with a fresh new user?
[15:24] <dakira> doug__: and you need to find out the UUID for the ntfs partition
[15:24] <Frogzoo> sarthor: for x in c* ; do  mv $x d${x#c} ; done
[15:24] <doug__> dakira, how do i do this?
[15:24] <len> jrib, dunno, I will try, but It works when I log in a root
[15:24] <dakira> doug__: open a terminal.. type sudo fdisk -l to see which device is your ntfs partition
[15:25] <dakira> doug__: then type sudo vol_id -u device (replace "device" with the real one)
[15:26] <dakira> doug__: also the directory in /media where you want to mount the partition (in my case "win") must already exist
[15:26] <dakira> doug__: sudo mkdir /media/win
[15:26] <faris> guys do you recommend runing ubuntu on vmware to learn linux ??
[15:27] <doug__> dakira,  i was wanting it to mount to my desktop
[15:27] <Frogzoo> faris: sure
[15:27] <sixstorm> is anybody still using 6.06 since it is LTS?  LTS releases are basically still being used by just servers right?
[15:27] <h6mi1007> good morning
[15:27] <Frogzoo> faris: but doze sux to run vmware, but anyhow
[15:27] <LjL> faris: why not, it's as good as option as actually installing it, as far as "learning" goes
[15:27] <DIL> faris, there are sveral VM on the VM site you cam download if you have VM
[15:27] <doug__> hey dakira  can we move to another room please it is getting hard to work and find what you send me if not it is understandable.
[15:27] <hanophix33> why does ubuntu freeze when i insert my wireless card?
[15:28] <sixstorm> faris:  it's alright, performance isn't the real deal but it's good to learn on
[15:28] <faris> but there will be not compiz-fusion or any 3d things ?
[15:28] <LjL> sixstorm: not really, i've seen a few people here using 6.06. it's a pretty stable release - not bleeding edge but if it works well on one's hardware and one doesn't need bleeding edge...
[15:28] <h6mi1007> anyone know if i can install debian and ubuntu and windows on the same harddrive? 3 partitions?
[15:28] <sixstorm> faris:  no desktop effects for VMWare
[15:28] <LjL> faris: of course not.
[15:28] <LjL> faris: but you asked about "learning"... if you want shiny effects, that's a different question
[15:28] <Frogzoo> h6mi1007: certainly - just different partitions
[15:28] <hellion0> h6mi1007: if you have enough space for all three, yes.
[15:28] <faris> and the best place to learn linux will be  ?
[15:28] <LjL> faris: any Linux installation anywhere
[15:28] <sixstorm> LjL:  true that.  i just figured most people would take advantage of the new features of some of the newer releases
[15:28] <h6mi1007> I do, just not sure which cd to use to format the harddrive, any ideas?
[15:29] <Almar> DOES ANYONE HERE USE UBUNTU? oops capitalized
[15:29] <faris> no not really i wont need them if i cant install them
[15:29] <LjL> sixstorm: "most", probably. "all", decidedly not
[15:29] <Frogzoo> h6mi1007: only gotcha is vista is finicky with the boot loader, but if you're using xp you'll be fine
[15:29] <hellion0> i find the ubuntu liveCD works best for the partitioning.
[15:29] <h6mi1007> xp
[15:29] <LjL> Almar: does this channel's name not give you a hint?
[15:29] <sixstorm> faris:  try VMWare just to goof off with it first
[15:29] <hellion0> or the alternatecd, too.
[15:29] <Almar> LjL, sortaish
[15:29] <sixstorm> faris:  then get a cheap spare HDD and then give it a real test drive
[15:29] <h6mi1007> cool

[15:31] <faris> and about the distro thing ,,,you recommend ubuntui for good learning or anything els ?
[15:32] <DIL> Ubuntu Rocks!!

[15:34] <Bonaldo2000> I have set up an ssh server on a machine in my local network, I have forwarded port 22 to it. I can connect to it via ssh from inside the network but not from outside. ANy ideas what I do wrong?
[15:34] <sixstorm> faris:  livecd will work just fine
[15:34] <alex__> Please, could anyone help me with my xorg problem ?
[15:34] <doug__> PriceChild,  you have helped me before in the past do you know how i can set up wifi with a usb ?
[15:35] <alex__> I have a problem, I can set the screen resolution I want on gnome with the utility, (1024x768),  but each time I close and reopen a session, the resolution is back to 1280x1024. I have to set the correct resolution manually each time I log on. Could you help me to set it up definitively ?
[15:35] <PriceChild> doug__, please plug the usb in, the pastebin the output of lsusb
[15:35] <adac2> Bonaldo2000: how do you try to access from outside
[15:35] <Bonaldo2000> adac2: I just ssh ip-adress
[15:35] <WeedGrinch> Hello everyone
[15:35] <Bonaldo2000> adac2: the external IP of course
[15:36] <DIL> share the weed man
[15:36] <howlingmadhowie> Bonaldo2000: how have you forwarded port 22 to it?
[15:36] <astro76> adac2: sudo invoke-rc.d name start/stop
[15:36] <WeedGrinch> lol
[15:36] <adac2> Bonaldo2000: :) ok. hmm normally it should work than. may someone other knows what to do
[15:36] <Bonaldo2000> howlingmadhowie: just using my router - a standard port forwariding I guess...
[15:36] <WeedGrinch> Any ubuntu modding experts in here?
[15:37] <DIL> about 1200
[15:37] <WeedGrinch> lol
[15:37] <astro76> !anyone | WeedGrinch
[15:37] <ubotu> WeedGrinch: A large amount of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..."  Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out?
[15:37] <howlingmadhowie> Bonaldo2000: i'd guess the problem is in forwarding the request to your nas
[15:37] <Bonaldo2000> howlingmadhowie: I have used the same method for forwarding pors for eg. azureus, which works fine...
[15:37] <erUSUL> alex__: System>Admin>Screen and graphics  ??
[15:37] <adac2> astro76: thx
[15:37] <WeedGrinch> Ok, well I want to edit Ubuntu theme, and I don't know where the themes files are stored.
[15:38] <Bonaldo2000> howlingmadhowie: hm ok. Any idea what I can do?
[15:38] <WeedGrinch> Im a noob to ubuntu
[15:38] <howlingmadhowie> Bonaldo2000: okay. apart from double-checking that, i can't think of much atm.
[15:38] <Bonaldo2000> howlingmadhowie: ok...
[15:38] <howlingmadhowie> Bonaldo2000: do some isps block port 22? you could try using a different port
[15:38] <luca> i tried o many ways to have write permission accessing a ubuntu shared directory from vista ... does anyone knows what im missing ?
[15:38] <Bonaldo2000> howlingmadhowie: ok, thanks, that is worth a try...
[15:39] <hellion0> WeedGrinch: If you're using Gutsy, you can simply open System -> Preferences -> Appearance to change the way it looks.
[15:39] <sheen> hi there
[15:39] <alex__> erUSUL : when I use the screen and graphics utility I can change the resolution for the current session. But each time I disconnect, shutdown or restart the computer, I have to change the resolution manually through this utility.
[15:39] <WeedGrinch> Gusty is 7.10 ?
[15:39] <sheen> I have an nvidia 8800 GTS 512 (G92 chipset, the latest), I'm on Ubuntu64 7.10 with nvidia drivers 169.09. I have poor performance (about 10/20 fps instead of 50/100 with WinXP) in all games with cedega or wine (half life 2, css, dark messiah, morrowind, Oblivion). I'd like to know if there are any optimisation for my card please.
[15:39] <freeGNU> i have problem with ADSL USB modem
[15:39] <hellion0> WeedGrinch: Yes.
[15:39] <WeedGrinch> Thanks man
[15:39] <freeGNU> i have problem with ADSL USB modem  , canany bodyhelp me ?
[15:39] <luca> shouldnt this be enough for read write support ? available = yes browsable = yes public = yes writable = yes
[15:39] <alex__> erUSUL ; the resolution setting I choose in screen and graphics is not kept in memory...
[15:39] <PriceChild> freeGNU, give the model number to the channel
[15:40] <reakta1> Hi guys. I've got a problem - here's what I did: "sudo mount -o loop -t iso9660 /myiso.iso /media/cdrom0" and got:
[15:40] <reakta1> "mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/loop0, missing codepage or helper program, or other error. In some cases useful info is found in syslog - try dmesg | tail  or so."
[15:40] <reakta1> If i skip the -t then I get" mount: you must specify the filesystem type"
[15:40] <howlingmadhowie> Bonaldo2000: the port the sshd runs on is given in /etc/ssh/sshd_config. don't forget to restart the server after you modify the file :)
[15:40] <reakta1> sorry for the 3at once
[15:40] <adac2> what service is the MTA? it starttts on booting and it takes quite a while
[15:40] <freeGNU> PriceChild, model of the modem ?
[15:40] <LjL> reakta1: perhaps the ISO is corrupted?
[15:40] <freeGNU> PriceChild, model of the modem ?
[15:41] <reakta1> LjL: nope..
[15:41] <reakta1> MD5 says so
[15:41] <ATG> exit
[15:41] <astro76> reakta1: did you look at dmesg?
[15:41] <LjL> reakta1: i'd try mounting somewhere else than /media/cdrom0
[15:41] <erUSUL> alex__: that's really weird in theory the changes get written to /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[15:42] <erUSUL> !fixres | alex__
[15:42] <reakta1> LjL: same thing wherever i try
[15:42] <ubotu> alex__: The X Window System is the part of your system that's responsible for graphical output. To restart your X, type « sudo /etc/init.d/?dm restart » in a console - To fix screen resolution or other X problems: http://help.ubuntu.com/community/FixVideoResolutionHowto
[15:42] <PriceChild> freeGNU, would probably be helpful
[15:42] <Bartounet> re
[15:42] <reakta1> astro76: "[ 4347.125684] FAT: bogus number of reserved sectors|[ 4347.125695] VFS: Can't find a valid FAT filesystem on dev loop0."
[15:42] <freeGNU> PriceChild,  ok
[15:42] <LjL> reakta1: that's when you tried without the -t?
[15:42] <astro76> reakta1: I'd guess a wonky iso
[15:43] <reakta1> LjL: without that it keeps asking for it "mount: you must specify..."
[15:43] <reakta1> LjL, astro76: let me try the MD5 again just to make sure!
[15:43] <alex__> erUSU thanks, but I've already tried all this :(   Each time I change something in my xorg.conf, it get backed up and a new version is created.
[15:43] <Frogzoo> reakta1: looks like your cd's already mounted
[15:43] <LjL> reakta1: yeah i got that, but since the log talks about FAT, i guess it was trying something other than ISO9660 (such as, well FAT)
[15:43] <kodge> I need to install windows on this PC for reasons I don't wish to discuss. However whilst installing it says my HDD needs to be NTS ( or something similar to that ) for the installation to go through. Is there something I can do in ubuntu that would allow the process to happen?
[15:44] <alex__> erUSU right now I have  xorg.conf.1 to xorg.conf.14 ...
[15:44] <Jupp2> if I'm stalling my / and my /home in different partitions, how big should my / be?
[15:44] <astro76> kodge: you'll have to resize existing partitions to make space for an ntfs partition for windows
[15:44] <astro76> !gparted | kodge
[15:44] <ubotu> kodge: GParted is a !GUI partitioning program. Type « sudo apt-get install gparted » in a console to install it - A GParted "live" CD is available at http://gparted-livecd.tuxfamily.org/
[15:44] <hellion0> Jupp2: How big is the drive?
[15:45] <LjL> kodge: if you want to remove ubuntu, you need to reformat the HD (but i think the Windows installer definitely should be able to do that itself!); if you want to keep Ubuntu too, then you need to shuffle partitions around to make space for a Windows partition
[15:45] <WeedGrinch> I can't edit the "color" for any of the themes :S
[15:45] <Jupp2> hellion0, 200G
[15:45] <hellion0> WeedGrinch: Certain themes can be edited with that menu, others cannot.
[15:45] <WeedGrinch> Alright ty
[15:45] <hellion0> You can also add new themes. A good place to look for themes is gnome-look.org
[15:45] <kodge> ljl: I tried to reformat the drive from windows isntaller disc, but it wouldn't have any of it, said it couldnt do that, and I don't want ubuntu and windows on the PC, just windows ( as this PC is being sold )
[15:46] <Frogzoo> any way to stop the screen turning orange before the desktop wallpaper gets displayed on login?
[15:46] <hellion0> Jupp2: 10GB should be robust enough for /
[15:46] <astro76> kodge: then you should be able to easily delete the existing partitions, but ask in ##windows
[15:46] <Jupp2> hellion0, thanks
[15:46] <DIL> recktal, check your syntax mount -o loop -t iso9660 isofile.iso /mnt/iso
[15:46] <LjL> kodge: well, an Ubuntu live CD (or the GParted live CD) will let you format the drive, however i don't think it'll let you create an NTFS filesystem on it.
[15:46] <jrib> Frogzoo: it needs to turn some solid color, but you can change the color in gdm settings
[15:47] <DoYouKnow> hi guys. I have a silly question. What's the hotkey to resize a window in X?
[15:47] <Slike> hi, i'm having a little problem: i'm using ubuntu 7.10 and the latest ati driver, everything works fine, but if i try to log off, or restart x my computer freezes: it shows my wallpaper and that's it (ctrl-alt-something doesn't work no more, only the power button to shut down, the controlled way...)
[15:47] <DoYouKnow> a move rather
[15:47] <hellion0> kodge: it will, however, let you change it to FAT32, then you can change that from the win disc.
[15:47] <reakta1> DIL: got that right
[15:47] <LjL> kodge: perhaps the Windows CD you have is an upgrade-only CD? (so it expects a Windows installation to already exist)
[15:47] <Jupp2> LjL, gparted will let you format NTFS
[15:47] <DoYouKnow> I need to move a window since it went off my screen
[15:47] <DRebellion> DoYouKnow: alt+f10 to maximise...
[15:47] <astro76> DoYouKnow: alt + drag anywhere in window
[15:47] <kenalex> hello
[15:47] <DoYouKnow> ty
[15:47] <Bonaldo2000> eh, I just changed the port my ssh server listens to from 22 to 223 in this file: "/etc/ssh/sshd_config", and restarted with this: "sudo /etc/init.d/ssh restart". Now the server is not responding. How come? (luckily it stands right next to me so I can plug a keyboard and monitor in it if all goes wrong!)
[15:47] <LjL> Jupp2: ah, i didn't think NTFS support was so advanced.
[15:48] <Frogzoo> jrib: how do I access gdm settings? sys -> admin -> login window did it previous releases/just not gutsy
[15:48] <kenalex> what tool in ubuntu can i use to calculate md5 sum of a CD ISO image file ?
[15:48] <freeGNU> PriceChild, Broadband router , Doulports ,     Pa 10  , there is no logo on it
[15:48] <LjL> !md5 > kenalex    (kenalex, see the private message from Ubotu)
[15:48] <astro76> kenalex: md5sum
[15:48] <WeedGrinch> How do I change the bottom toolbar color?
[15:48] <kenalex> thanks astro76
[15:48] <bulmer> Bonaldo2000-> what do you mean it does not respond? what steps did you do to test?
[15:48] <jrib> Frogzoo: ah yes, that's a bug.  It's on launchpad.  You need to edit some file directly.  If you can't find the bug, let me know and I'll search
[15:48] <kodge> ljl: perhaps. Is there still any way around it?
[15:48] <freeGNU> PriceChild, Broadband router , Doul ports ,     Pa 10  , there is no logo on it
[15:48] <astro76> kenalex: always try the obvious, tab completion helps ;)
[15:48] <Bonaldo2000> bulmer: i just can't ssh into it!
[15:48] <hellion0> WeedGrinch: Right-click, Preferences.
[15:48] <alex__> erUSU , you have no other idea about my problem ?
[15:48] <DoYouKnow> this is great... awesome. btw, compiz-fusion is awesome with ATI in gutsy. it was 1,2,3
[15:49] <Frogzoo> jrib: ah thanks, googling away now
[15:49] <WeedGrinch> Thanks man!
[15:49] <Bonaldo2000> bulmer: just a sec!
[15:49] <Bonaldo2000> bulmer: think I've been a fool hehe
[15:49] <LjL> kodge: well, Jupp2 said GParted does let you format as NTFS, so try that
[15:49] <PriceChild> freeGNU, is it an isp modem?
[15:49] <valefly> is there any known probs with theflash plugin?
[15:49] <PriceChild> valefly, /topic
[15:49] <bulmer> Bonaldo2000-> we wouldnt tell anyone if you dont mention it
[15:49] <howlingmadhowie> Bonaldo2000: try ssh ip_address -p 233
[15:49] <LjL> kodge: if that fails, you really do need to ask in ##windows
[15:49] <freeGNU> PriceChild, yes
[15:49] <PriceChild> freeGNU, go to their website and find a picture or support page about it
[15:50] <PriceChild> freeGNU, can't help unless we know what it is
[15:50] <Bonaldo2000> bulmer: I just still used port 22, doh! Please don't tell anyone. And delete the log of the channel!
[15:50] <bulmer> Bonaldo2000-> good luck  :)
[15:50] <freeGNU> PriceChild,  ok , thanks PriceChild  , i'll try to find that
[15:50] <DIL> WeedGrinch, rc on border Preferences
[15:50] <WeedGrinch> I found it :)
[15:50] <hellion0> cool.
[15:51] <WeedGrinch> Thanks everyone
[15:51] <valefly> PriceChild: every time i go to a web page that requires flash it tries to reinstall flash eitherthought it's alredy installed
[15:51] <reakta1> LjL, astro76: You were right - iso got corrupted somehow! wow...
[15:51] <Jasmin_> http://www.airtel.co.in/level2_t3data.aspx?path=1/106/179 i hav this modem n i hav to connect in kubuntu how do i do
[15:51] <PriceChild> valefly, well then its not installed
[15:51] <Zimmer> nemilar: no luck, if I use those options outlined, it still doesnt work
[15:52] <Zimmer> Ubuntu still doesnt detect the GFX
[15:52] <Zimmer> if I lower the resolution, then it restarts
[15:52] <Unipal>  One monitor okay, two monitors with Twinview crash. I've tried everything in xorg.conf, etc. Is there a known bug with Gutsy/nvidia/Twinview?
[15:52] <luca> no sound in youtube videos ... any idea ?
[15:52] <luca> local sound works great
[15:53] <kodge> ljl: how would I change the partition to ntfs in gparted, if I booted up in the 7.10 livecd
[15:53] <DRebellion> luca: gnash or non-free?
[15:53] <luca> non-free
[15:53] <theunixgeek> Are there any Google Sketchup alternatives for Linux?
[15:53] <Dimitree> hmmmmm
[15:54] <Dimitree> i did a 10gb ubuntu install and now i have 64mb free
[15:54] <Dimitree> how do i check whats taking so much space ?
[15:54] <unop> kodge, i'm not sure that would be possible from a live CD -- you could try formatting the partition with mkfs at a terminal - mkfs.ntfs /dev/sdXX
[15:54] <hellion0> Dimitree: try df -h in a Terminal?
[15:54] <LjL> !diskfree > Dimitree    (Dimitree, see the private message from Ubotu)

[15:55] <unop> !caps
[15:55] <kodge> Unop: Its just one partition, the main HDD, all 150gb of it, that would surely cause the PC to just die/
[15:55] <PriceChild> doug__, tell the channel what doesn't work
[15:55] <DIL> Dimitree, TOP
[15:55] <doug__> PRICE THE WHOLE THING I PLUG IT IN AND IT WILL NOT WORK

[15:56] <luca> DRebellion works now ... i had to close xmms ... is there any change having it  working both at the same time ?
[15:56] <DRebellion> luca:  i don't know
[15:56] <unop> kodge, you are using gparted to partition a disk or create another new partition -- use mkfs.ntfs to format the new partition you
[15:56] <unop> s/you//
[15:56] <voice> hello
[15:56] <reakta1> How do I mount an ISO image as a CD Drive? (not HDD)
[15:57] <LjL> reakta1: there isn't a difference...
[15:57] <unop> reakta1, at a terminal - mount -t iso9660 -o loop /path/to/iso /mountpoint
[15:57] <WeedGrinch> alcohol %120
[15:57] <kodge> Unop: Im just wanting to change this partition that im using ( it has ubuntu on it ) and make it ntfs so I can install vista on it
[15:57] <WeedGrinch> i prolly spelled it wrong
[15:57] <WeedGrinch> just google it
[15:57] <DIL> reaktal , mount -o loop -t iso9660 isofile.iso /mnt/iso
[15:57] <WeedGrinch> or taht
[15:57] <WeedGrinch> :)
[15:58] <unop> kodge, just pop the vista CD in then, it can take care of this problem for you
[15:58] <WeedGrinch> Is editing the boot screen hard?
[15:58] <Lettuc3> after a default lyx install, i can't seem to view/convert eps documents into a viewable format, get the error 'error converting to loadable format', anyone come across this before, and how to fix it?
[15:58] <reakta1> LjL: i'm trying to serve a cd to wine but it won't recognize it..
[15:58] <LjL> WeedGrinch, what you're thinking of is a Windows programs as far as i know.
[15:58] <kodge> Unop: yeah thats the problem, it didnt
[15:58] <theunixgeek> WeedGrinch: you mean Grub?
[15:58] <larson9999> WeedGrinch, that kinda built in functionality is on my list of reasons i switched to linux
[15:58] <LjL> !usplash > WeedGrinch    (WeedGrinch, see the private message from Ubotu)
[15:58] <Lettuc3> i mean, this was after installing lyx as a latex editor.
[15:58] <WeedGrinch> I thought he was on windows, trying to get help with installing ubuntu
[15:58] <WeedGrinch> my bad :(
[15:58] <astro76> kodge: all you need to do is delete all the existing partitions and leave it unpartitioned, the windows installer will do the rest, the window installer should be able to do it all, but like we said you need to be asking in ##window
[15:58] <unop> kodge, i'm not sure how the vista CD works -- you'll need to ask the folks in ##windows
[15:58] <WeedGrinch> ok thanks

[16:02] <Frogzoo> Dimitree: well it can be done, but only be experts
[16:02] <WeedGrinch> OK, sorry for my noobyness, I did sudo update-alternatives --config usplash-artwork.so && sudo update-initramfs -u

[16:02] <WeedGrinch> to use usplash, now what?
[16:03] <LjL> WeedGrinch: eh? that lets you *select* the splash screen to use. if you have only one installed, then there won't be anything to select. but you asked about *customizing* it, didn't you?
[16:03] <WeedGrinch> Yea
[16:03] <Dimitree> Frogzoo,  how about if i use partition magic and make partitions for linux and place files there and runt he install from there and format and install on my primary partition ?
[16:03] <LjL> WeedGrinch: so why didn't you read the second part of the message?
[16:03] <LjL> !usplash | WeedGrinch

[16:05] <gmcerveny> i'm a new ubuntu (and linux) user with a fresh ubuntu server installation, and I've just formatted and mounted my second drive
[16:05] <gmcerveny> but the ubuntu doc i'm following, tells me to gksudo gedit to edit the fstab file and i don't seem to have gksudo or gedit installed
[16:05] <gmcerveny> what can I used to edit the fstab file instead?
[16:06] <DRebellion> gmcerveny: you should have vi
[16:06] <aricz_> gmcerveny : use pico/nano instead
[16:07] <Frogzoo> gmcerveny: no gksu? no gedit? did install run to completion?
[16:07] <hellion0> seconded on using pico or nano.
[16:07] <gmcerveny> yup
[16:07] <DRebellion> Frogzoo: its a server, eg no gui
[16:07] <Frogzoo> DRebellion: oh right
[16:07] <DRebellion> gmcerveny: go for nano (its the most user friendly)
[16:07] <gmcerveny> perhaps i'll give nano a try
[16:07] <gmcerveny> i've used vi in the past, but i've forgotten how to get around it
[16:07] <gmcerveny> thanks guys
[16:07] <DRebellion> gmcerveny: make sure you use  sudo nano

[16:31] <rsk> lgp: tried pasting?
[16:31] <qwerkus> doug__: go to aircrack-ng
[16:31] <rsk> lgp: where are you failing ?
[16:31] <lgp> yup
[16:32] <doug__> qwerkus,  what does that have to do with my usb wifi?
[16:32] <lgp> well, gets only info on which version of mplayer installed
[16:32] <qwerkus> doug__: IF your card is supported by the kernel, they will know how to set it there
[16:32] <rsk> lgp: also, make sure you have a file called file.avi or replace that name with something you have
[16:32] <qwerkus> aicrack guys are just drivers-geeks

[16:48] <twentyafterfour> are there known problems with any of the recent updates?  I installed some updates and after rebooting I can only access the "failsafe" gnome session, my normal gnome session kicks me back out to the gdm
[16:48] <drunkardivan> Hi y'all
[16:48] <twentyafterfour> I'm not sure if it's related to the recent updates since I don't reboot very often
[16:49] <cornishman> twentyafterfour: any error notifications when you#re booted back to gdm?
[16:49] <twentyafterfour> cornishman: nope, just kicks me out - I start to see my desktop load and then boom
[16:49] <twentyafterfour> and I can't find anything useful in any of my log files
[16:50] <cornishman> twentyafterfour: you could try deleting the file .ICEauthority in your home directory
[16:50] <twentyafterfour> I tried turning off all of my startup entries in the gnome-session-properties but that doesn't seem to help
[16:50] <twentyafterfour> cornishman: thanks, I'll try that
[16:50] <rapha> Hi all!
[16:50] <rapha> I upgraded my Ubuntu, and now Visual Effects does not work anymore ... can you help me?
[16:50] <cornishman> you might need to log into a failsafe session and use rm .ICEaithority from the command prompt
[16:51] <cornishman> sorry, .ICEauthority
[16:51] <twentyafterfour> thanks cornishman, I'm in the failsafe session now. I'll see if that helps.

[16:52] <voice> partition*
[16:52] <twentyafterfour> rapcha: what version did you update to?
[16:53] <twentyafterfour> voice: you can delete it with fdisk. if you just want to turn off swapping use the command "swapoff"
[16:53] <Zimmer> : yes
[16:53] <Zimmer> danand_ : yes
[16:53] <danand_> voice - you can use the GParted tool
[16:53] <voice> well
[16:53] <rapha> twentyafterfour: I'm using 7.10 ... I just updated through the orange symbol. No OS upgrade.
[16:53] <voice>  i want to get rid of it and ubuntu from my computer
[16:53] <voice> ubuntu i can format in partition magic
[16:53] <danand_> Zimmer - what is the exact nature of the problem?
[16:53] <Zimmer> danand_ : it will just show a blank screen after boot
[16:53] <Zimmer> I boot into the options, then go to safe boot
[16:53] <Zimmer> and nothing
[16:53] <voice> but partition magic can't handel the swap partion :S
[16:54] <krim> I just moved the scroll bar on Firefox (the one on the right you know) to the left side and I don't know how I did it. Anyone know how to get it back to the right?
[16:54] <Seven_Six_Two> is there a known issue with firefox in ubuntu 7.04? It regularly segfaults with this message:   /usr/lib/firefox/run-mozilla.sh: line 131: 25473 Segmentation fault      (core dumped) "$prog" ${1+"$@"}
[16:54] <twentyafterfour> voice: you can boot up with the ubuntu live cd and use gparted
[16:54] <danand_> voice - use GParted tool on the live CD
[16:54] <voice> Ok
[16:54] <voice> thank you
[16:54] <rapha> voice: Why not use GParted? There's a LiveCD with it
[16:54] <rapha> oops too slow :)

[16:55] <Seven_Six_Two> maybe I'll try the closed source flash plugin.
[16:55] <donald_> how do i remove Ubuntu desktop and related files/programs?
[16:55] <DreamLnr> i cant get the resolution above 800c600:(
[16:55] <twentyafterfour> seven_six_two: you could try updating to the latest flash version from adobe. firefox used to crash a lot here but it doesn't anymore
[16:55] <nathan_101> join #compiz
[16:55] <ompaul> donald_, why not start with the server install that seems a slightly not good way to work - much faster with the other CD
[16:55] <nathan_101> >.<
[16:56] <Seven_Six_Two> twentyafterfour, so uninstall the one from the repo and install from the site?

[17:00] <twentyafterfour> kranny: what version of ubuntu are you using?
[17:00] <kranny> 7.04
[17:00] <Seven_Six_Two> twentyafterfour, yeah, I'm sure I can do that, but I expected to see one in synaptic for me to remove...
[17:01] <twentyafterfour> kranny: can you apt-get compiz-fusion?
[17:01] <larson999> anyone here try getting that magicjack thing working in linux?

[17:04] <danand_> DiceyDays - you can try lspci, lsusb etc from the command line if that helps - other wise Gnome has a hardware info tool under Preferences -> Hardware info
[17:04] <twentyafterfour> ok I gotta go test my session .. good luck everyone

[17:07] <meoblast001> how do i get this error to stop comming up when my session starts  http://www.pastebin.ca/890287
[17:07] <voice> oh ok
[17:07] <danand_> TheBlackOut - _think_ you can just swap the order of your OS's in grub so that WinXP will be the first/default entry
[17:07] <voice> sorry im completely new to linux
[17:07] <erUSUL> voice: the livecd uses swap partitions if it finds them
[17:07] <sheen> Belorix, I've just posted, please go here : http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=686582
[17:07] <voice> oh
[17:07] <TheBlackOut> danand: But how do I do that?
[17:07] <voice> so i dont need to delete?
[17:08] <erUSUL> voice: why do you want to delete it?
[17:08] <voice> want to redo ubuntu
[17:08] <Zimmer> danand_ : nvidia restricted driver?
[17:08] <Belorix> first of all wine doesnt work with all games
[17:08] <TheBlackOut> I think *think* swap is used for if you dont have a lot of RAM, right?
[17:08] <voice> i installed  the 64 bit and i want to install the 32bit one instead
[17:08] <thoreauputic> voice: try  sudo swapoff -a
[17:08] <sheen> Belorix, I know these games works flawless
[17:08] <thoreauputic> voice: that turns it off
[17:08] <sheen> Belorix, there are no graphic bug, just it's very slow
[17:08] <erUSUL> voice: you can use the already made partitions to install the 32 bit version
[17:09] <Randomtime> voice: you can keep the swap
[17:09] <sheen> Belorix, I seen user on wineHQ which were playing to these game at 50 fps =(
[17:09] <Randomtime> voice: tehre is no difference between 64bit's swap and 32 bit
[17:09] <danand_> voice - there is a way to turn that off - think you can boot with an option to the kernel like swap=off (or something like that) but sure you can do R-click -> turn off swap from within GParted
[17:10] <voice> ok thanks guys
[17:10] <andrisp> hello, is it possible to disable antialiasing in gnome for one specific program (bluefish) ?
[17:10] <kranny> i think there are no official packages of compiz-fusion for feisty
[17:10] <Randomtime> voice: no probs
[17:10] <kranny> is it advisable to install

[17:10] <ubotu> Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation!
[17:11] <erUSUL> andrisp: why?
[17:11] <meoblast001> i guess ill just have to do things the easy way and reinstall xorg and GNOME
[17:11] <danand_> TheBlackOut - just edit the /boot/grub/menu.lst file with the command gksu gedit /boot/grub/menu.lst and then cut and paste so that WinXP is above Ubuntu in the file (I _think_ this would work)
[17:11] <andrisp> erUSUL: because i dont like to code with antialiased fonts

[17:15] <danand_> TheBlackOut - the auto kernel list is auto generated when you update grub, install a new kernel etc - i don't think manually changing the order will hurt _but_ if you do update grub etc you may find the order changes again!

[17:18] <dsnyders> ene_dene, You're welcome.  Note: you may need to sudo that
[17:19] <variant_> Zimmer: did you run the disk checker available from the cd menu? it could be that the cd is corrupt. If you run the check and it says everything is fine then you might need to download the "alternative" installer, it runs in text mode and will get the system up and running. a lot of people have the same graphics card so it shouldn't be a problem once you have it installed, the cd can be funny like that sometimes
[17:19] <XLV> Zimmer, try text mode install then
[17:19] <jrib> meoblast001: check your history for what the command was

[17:19] <variant_> Zimmer: if the disk checker says there is a problem then you should download a new ubuntu image and burn it again
[17:19] <XLV> Zimmer, i think you press F6 and in boot mode prompt type install or expert etc

[17:20] <jrib> meoblast001: Can you check if it was just the example bash fork bomb from the wikipedia article on fork bombs?

[17:25] <dsnyders> unop, I want to delete from A what already exsists in B
[17:25] <Seven_Six_Two> donald_, thanks. I just installed it right from the adobe site, so I'll bookmark that and try it if it keeps crashing
[17:25] <variant_> dra: this is not what i was looking for but it's a discussion of the different options.. it seems like there is no solid consensus on the best way forward yet: http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=119189
[17:25] <TangentBuntu> how do I fix this error?
[17:25] <TangentBuntu> WARNING: NNET_OpenSocket: bind: Cannot assign requested address
[17:26] <variant_> comicinker: same way you would on a non virtual machine
[17:26] <jrib> meoblast001: I'd troubleshoot by running a memtest first.  If that's ok, see if it happens with a different video driver.  nv if you use nvidia, ati if you use fglrx, vesa if you just want something generic etc...
[17:26] <stephen-mason> can anyone help me install dreamweaver in wine?
[17:26] <TangentBuntu> stephen-mason: it should be just like in windows
[17:26] <meoblast001> jrib: how do i run a memtest?
[17:26] <jrib> meoblast001: it's an option at the grub menu when you boot
[17:26] <Seven_Six_Two> stephen-mason, except you precede the installer executable with wine
[17:27] <TangentBuntu> meoblast001: if you have grub installed, you can just run it from there
[17:27] <monkeyBox> I /thought/ simply accepting recommended updates would be stable.. am I wrong??
[17:27] <stephen-mason> tangentBuntu: im a total newb, i just moved over from windows a couple days ago. you have to do it through the terminal dont you?
[17:27] <comicinker> variant_: it offers me resolutions up to 800x600. I would like to see 1024x786
[17:27] <meoblast001> jrib: TangentBuntu: k ill go try that
[17:27] <TangentBuntu> ah, I see
[17:27] <unop> dsnyders, errm -- maybe this then -- (cd A; for i in *; do [ -e B/$i ] && echo rm $i; done)
[17:27] <monkeyBox> Now when I log in via GDM,  my panel starts up, and it just goes back to the login screen
[17:27] <TangentBuntu> sorry stephen-mason didn't know ;)
[17:27] <Redsnaked> join #ubuntu-br
[17:27] <^root^> i installed Emerald theme manager, and by mistake made the title bar transparent, i want it to restored as it was in actual theme, even tried applying the same theme, but no use...
[17:28] <stephen-mason> TangentBuntu, help the noob, lol
[17:28] <ene_dene> and now, how do I unmount the iso image? :)
[17:28] <monkeyBox> Exact same thing happening on my laptop
[17:28] <jrib> ene_dene: umount
[17:28] <Seven_Six_Two> stephen-mason, yes. if you have wine installed, then use something like this:   wine dreamweaver_installer.exe
[17:28] <WeedGrinch> I downloaded samba, but I cant find it, any help?
[17:28] <benny269> Hi I program at uni in java and wish to use nedit and javac commands from the terminal in the same way. how can I set this up?
[17:28] <stephen-mason> where does the exe need to be?
[17:28] <thoreauputic> !samba
[17:28] <ubotu> Samba is the way to cooperate with Windows environments. Links with more info: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MountWindowsSharesPermanently and http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/serverguide/C/windows-networking.html - Samba can be administered via the web with SWAT.
[17:28] <TangentBuntu> stephen-mason: right click on the icon and go to the "open with" part, just type in wine there and hit okay
[17:28] <unop> dsnyders, iirc, the rsync equiv is -- rsync --delete -av B A   but i could be wrong
[17:29] <WeedGrinch> !samba
[17:29] <stephen-mason> cool
[17:29] <TangentBuntu> stephen-mason: that's the easier way for you winoobs
[17:29] <TangentBuntu> ;)
[17:29] <WeedGrinch> !samba weedgrinch
[17:29] <luca> i cannot access a shared directory from vista (the shared directory its a ntfs mounted on my debian machine) ... any other shared directoryes that i have works great except the mounted ntfs hdd any idea ?

[17:29] <benny269> Hi I program at uni in java and wish to use javac commands from the terminal in the same way. how can I set this up?
[17:30] <thoreauputic> WeedGrinch: have a look at http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/serverguide/C/windows-networking.html
[17:30] <comicinker> how can I raise the resolution of ubuntu in a virtual machine? It offers me only up to 800x600, I need more
[17:30] <TangentBuntu> also, isn't there a linux alternative to dreamweaver?
[17:30] <unop> dsnyders, actually, forget the rsync command, it does more than what you want
[17:30] <r3r3> yes kompozer
[17:30] <linux__alien> I am using Dell Inspiron 1520 Laptop. A brand new one got it today and installed Ubuntu 7.10 and somehow managed to get wireless working but now sound is not working I ve a Sigmatel Sound Card thats what windows says  how do i get sound working in Ubuntu
[17:30] <stephen-mason> it all makes sense now :)
[17:30] <linux__alien> could someone help me out please?
[17:31] <Belorix> comicinker, its becuase your graphics card meeds to be insalled with its driver use safe graphics mode
[17:31] <thoreauputic> !sound | linux__alien
[17:31] <ubotu> linux__alien: If you're having problems with sound, first ensure ALSA is selected, by double clicking on the volume control, then File -> Change Device (ALSA Mixer). If that fails, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Sound - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting - http://alsa.opensrc.org/index.php?page=DmixPlugin - For playing audio files, see !Players and !MP3
[17:31] <dsnyders> unop, yeah.  I don't want to delete the files in B if they don't exist in A, which is what that seems to do.
[17:31] <benny269> Hi I program at uni in java and wish to use nedit and javac commands from the terminal in the same way. how can I set this up?

[17:31] <comicinker> Belorix: ones again, please
[17:31] <TangentBuntu> please
[17:31] <thoreauputic> linux__alien: if you want to re-read that factoid, do /msg ubotu sound
[17:32] <lksdjf> ah
[17:32] <TangentBuntu> how do I fix: WARNING: NNET_OpenSocket: bind: Cannot assign requested address
[17:32] <Belorix> comicinker, its becuase your graphics card meeds to be insalled with its driver use safe graphics mode
[17:32] <lksdjf> okay, so I'm not the only one who is having issues with sound.
[17:32] <TangentBuntu> how do I open a port to be assigned
[17:32] <^root^> anyone? :(
[17:32] <linux__alien> thoreauputic, the speaker sign shows a red mark near to it and when i click on it i get some error and i checked that whether ALSA is selected and found that its selected
[17:33] <linux__alien> thoreauputic, when i double click it says no GStreamer Devices found
[17:33] <comicinker> Belorix:  I don't understand
[17:33] <benny269> Anyone know how to install JDK so I can use commands such as javac from CLI?
[17:33] <comicinker> meeds?
[17:33] <luca> in vista i can see both the /home/luca and the /media/sda1 but i can only access the /home/luca directory ....they both have same config
[17:33] <sugarhigh> hello, is there an application that will let me use my Rock Band drums as a standard midi device?
[17:33] <Belorix> comicinker are you using a live cd?
[17:33] <thoreauputic> linux__alien: did you read the URL in the ubotu factoid?
[17:33] <TangentBuntu> sugarhigh: it really depends
[17:33] <sugarhigh> TangentBuntu, on what?
[17:33] <comicinker> Belorix: I used one, and installed in on my virtual machine
[17:33] <TangentBuntu> sugarhigh: but I'd doubt it, how would you connect them?
[17:33] <linux__alien> yes but i read through it but it does not say what to do
[17:34] <thoreauputic> linux__alien: sound issues are specific to card chipsets etc.
[17:34] <Belorix> comicinker go to admin - restricted drivers
[17:34] <Belorix> I have a WUSB54GSC wireless card i have it installed but no power getting to it, i know its working becuase i can detect wireless networks but i cannopt connect cuase again no pwer
[17:34] <benny269> Anyone know how to install JDK so I can use commands such as javac from CLI?
[17:34] <thoreauputic> linux__alien: if you open a terminal and type " alsamixer" what happens?
[17:34] <ScorpKing> I've made some changes to https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto/BootFloppy and added "Boot a floppy image without a floppy drive" to the bottom of the page. Please check if everything I've added is correct and feel free to fix any mistakes. Hope it's helpfull to someone. :D
[17:34] <comicinker> Belorix: it doesn't show any restricted drivers
[17:35] <linux__alien> thoreauputic, it says alsamixer: snd_ctl
[17:35] <Belorix> then idk your issue
[17:35] <thoreauputic> !java > benny269
[17:35] <linux__alien> _open failed for default": no such device
[17:35] <Belorix> I have a WUSB54GSC wireless card i have it installed but no power getting to it, i know its working becuase i can detect wireless networks but i cannopt connect cuase again no pwer
[17:35] <linux__alien> thoreauputic, thats the error that i get when i run alsamixer
[17:35] <thoreauputic> linux__alien: sounds like a driver/module issue
[17:35] <sugarhigh> TangentBuntu, info.product: Harmonix Drum Kit for PlayStation(R)3
[17:35] <benny269> thoreauputic: is this package going to let me compile and run java? or just use it say online websites?
[17:35] <dsnyders> unop, I gather the echo in (cd A; for i in *; do [ -e B/$i ] && echo rm $i; done) is for safety purposes?
[17:35] <thoreauputic> linux__alien: I would try googling your exact sound card
[17:36] <TangentBuntu> sugarhigh: don't listen to me, I'm not gonna help any, sorry
[17:36] <thoreauputic> benny269: there is a jdk and a runtime
[17:36] <unop> dsnyders, errm, let me try this out quick ..
[17:36] <benny269> thoreauputic: so i assume i want the jdk?
[17:37] <Belorix> I have a WUSB54GSC wireless card i have it installed but no power getting to it, i know its working becuase i can detect wireless networks but i cannopt connect cuase again no pwer
[17:37] <thoreauputic> benny269: sounds like it, yes :)
[17:37] <anto> Heya guys i got a problem, when trying to insert my live cd into my server it loads 3% of the kernel the stops loading
[17:37] <linux__alien> This is what i get in HardWare Info
[17:37] <linux__alien> 82801H (ICH8 Family) HD Audio Controller
[17:37] <linux__alien> then this should be my sound card right/

[17:38] <jrgp> I'd go for the latest official java by sun
[17:39] <thoreauputic> benny269: I think iced tea is amd64, but I may be wrong...
[17:39] <AshDragonScale> Belorix: I had this problem with 6.06, i put the same disk in my second drive and it rand and installed fine, that's all I know about that... lol

[17:41] <thoreauputic> linux__alien: then try a google search on the result with "Ubuntu" added
[17:41] <rencore_> in firefox how can i make backspace go back a page
[17:41] <danand_> suge - if you can find a command line tool to convert you can just write a simple shell script to batch convert
[17:41] <SpookyET> Banshee has a nice interface. I like it more than Rhythmbox.
[17:41] <dj_oko> hello everybody
[17:41] <cabbie> suge: if you have a program to do single conversion, just write a shellscript to perform the batch...
[17:41] <unop> dsnyders, have a look here - http://pastebin.ca/890331
[17:41] <linux__alien> This is what i get

[17:41] <benny269> thoreauputic: so that would be 6 then? at uni I think we get api's for 1.2/3 or something like that? will this be a problem in any way?
[17:41] <suge> yeah.. true. Wonder if ffmpeg can convert wmv to xvid
[17:41] <linux__alien> There is a bug for this in launchpad
[17:41] <linux__alien> https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/122560
[17:42] <thoreauputic> linux__alien: have you tried putting that in google with "ubuntu" added?
[17:42] <sugarhigh> Is there an application that will allow me to map a USB HID device (gamepad) to keystrokes?
[17:42] <linux__alien> not sure how to proceed
[17:42] <linux__alien> yes i did and i got that launchpad link
[17:42] <ahmad`> how can i activate the scroll button of the mouse ?
[17:42] <Belorix> I have a WUSB54GSC wireless card i have it installed but no power getting to it, i know its working becuase i can detect wireless networks but i cannopt connect cuase again no pwer
[17:42] <dsnyders> unop, looking...
[17:42] <TangentBuntu> something is really bugging me here
[17:42] <thoreauputic> benny269: you need an opinion from someone who knows - and that isn't me :)
[17:43] <voice> how do i get flash to work with ubuntu?
[17:43] <unop> dsnyders, the last line should say " deleted from a..." .. :)
[17:43] <unop> dsnyders, made a mistake there
[17:43] <thoreauputic> linux__alien: you might try asking on the mailing list
[17:43] <nomopofomo> having problems building zsnes :( it says that my version of zlib is not >= 1.2.3 when it is <IP_ADDRESS>
[17:43] <sherl0k> voice, go visit a youtube page and it'll ask you to install it
[17:43] <thoreauputic> !lists | linux__alien
[17:43] <ubotu> linux__alien: mail is another medium to communicate. Ubuntu mailinglists can be found at http://lists.ubuntu.com
[17:43] <begginer> can someone tell me pls how can I found out if my kernel support a MPP-encryption?
[17:43] <sherl0k> nomopofomo, zsnes is in the repo
[17:43] <sherl0k> aptitude install zsnes
[17:43] <voice> says its already installed sherl0k
[17:44] <nomopofomo> holy moly!
[17:44] <nomopofomo> alright ^_^
[17:44] <nomopofomo> thanks
[17:44] <sherl0k> then run zsnes
[17:44] <sherl0k> voice: aptitude install flashplauyer-nonfree
[17:44] <sherl0k> er, flashplayer-nonfree
[17:44] <sherl0k> i believe
[17:45] <voice> ?
[17:45] <begginer> how can I find out if a Patch into my kernel or not?
[17:46] <dinooss> Hello
[17:46] <WeedGrinch> What are some reccomended ubuntu aps to download?
[17:46] <unop> !alternatives | WeedGrinch
[17:46] <jrgp> that depends entirely on what you want to do
[17:46] <ubotu> WeedGrinch: To change the default applications system-wide, use 'sudo update-alternatives --all' in a terminal.
[17:46] <unop> errm, sorry, my bad
[17:46] <ahmad`> any idea how to make the mouse scroll work ?
[17:46] <WeedGrinch> same problem here...
[17:47] <voice> sherl0k i tried putting that into a terminal
[17:47] <Bupsss> hi there
[17:47] <voice> and it came up with this
[17:47] <filthpig> !flash
[17:47] <ubotu> To install Flash see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats/Flash (for !Dapper and !Edgy, a recent version is available in !backports) - See also !Restricted and !Gnash - The Flash package is currently BROKEN, see « /msg ubotu FlashIssues »
[17:47] <dsnyders> unop, you're using some new-to-me command syntax.  However, shouldn't  [ -e ../a/$i ] be  [ -e ../b/$i ] ?
[17:47] <ConstyXIV> is there some easy way to keep your ~ in sync with another machine? (difficulty: other machines are a powermac and winXP box)
[17:48] <Bupsss> hi have a small problem with my ubuntu, i cannot access the wifi network
[17:48] <dsnyders> unop, I'm assuming that that's the existence test.
[17:48] <Bupsss> it keeps asking the wep key
[17:48] <ConstyXIV> Bupsss, is it WEP-secured?
[17:48] <ylemercier> hi all
[17:49] <unop> dsnyders, i'm working under the assumption you want to delete from A what already exists in B .. so what you need to do is walk through each file in B and test it's existance in A, if it exists, delete it from A ..
[17:49] <Ajasena> #ubuntu-br
[17:49] <andax> Bupsss: this means, the network you try to access is encrypted and you need that key
[17:49] <unop> dsnyders, which is why it's  [ -e ../a/$i ] and not the other way around
[17:49] <Ajasena> ?
[17:50] <ylemercier> does someone know if perl 5.8.8 comes with native threads support (compile arg at install-time) ???
[17:50] <unop> ConstyXIV, sure, as long as you can mount the remote machines' folders locally you can use rsync to keep the different directories in sync
[17:50] <voice> that link doesn't help at all
[17:51] <voice> i've tried installing it through firefox's plugin manager
[17:51] <voice> i've tried downloading it from the flash site itself
[17:51] <dsnyders> unop.  Right!  Yes.
[17:51] <ConstyXIV> unop, and could you set it up to where it would initiate the sync while, say, on network XYZ and on AC power?
[17:52] <mewino> i unistalled my sound drivers and now my gnome desktop will not load
[17:52] <begginer> how can I find out if a Patch into my kernel or not?
[17:52] <mewino> does anybody have the link where i can fix it
[17:52] <meoblast001> hello.... im having a slight problem..... the size of the font on my login screen is huge...... how do i fix this?
[17:52] <unop> ylemercier, i assume perl is built with ithreads by default on all platforms -- perl -V tells you
[17:53] <unop> begginer, why do you want a patch into your kernel?
[17:53] <thoreauputic> begginer: might be more useful to say what you are trying to do...
[17:54] <unop> ConstyXIV, i'm sure you can -- but i dunno how its done :)
[17:54] <begginer> unop, for a pptp-tunnel, this should be with MPPE encrypted
[17:54] <mbb> trying to see a Hawaii beach webcam "http://www.honolulu.gov/multimed/waikiki.asp", doesn't work with Linux, would appreciate ideas on fixing this.
[17:54] <linux__alien> thoreauputic, i asked the ALSA channel and they gave me a link where there were some solutions
[17:54] <linux__alien> i ve currently done this
[17:54] <linux__alien> sudo aptitude install linux-backports-modules-generic
[17:54] <linux__alien> thoreauputic, can i do that
[17:54] <begginer> and I dont know if my kernel support MPPE
[17:54] <linux__alien> https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Gutsy_Intel_HD_Audio_Controller
[17:54] <linux__alien> this is the link i got
[17:55] <Tygir> any ideas how i can get an .avi to play in ubuntu?
[17:55] <thoreauputic> linux__alien: I don't know - but the alsa people should know a thing or two :)
[17:55] <dsnyders> mbb, problem is with the webcam.  We'll have to go to Hawaii to fix it. :-)
[17:55] <mewino> how do i get my gnome desktop to start working again
[17:56] <thoreauputic> linux__alien: I'm not a sound expert, sorry :)
