[07:06] <xSnOoPyx> oh, its a .so that came with the sdk that i assume i have to install becuase the sdk works in windows but not in ubuntu...
[07:06] <mEck0> hi! how can I empty the trash from the terminal? I can't do it via the gui because it says that I don't have permission to delete a file from a folder. But when I look in ~/.Trash, there's nothing in there :S
[07:06] <Seven_Six_Two> wow I'm getting a lot of backscatter right now. is anyone on sympatico getting any?
[07:07] <Seven_Six_Two> bounced emails that you didn't send?(spoofed return address)
[07:07] <amenado> xSnOoPyx-> does the site where you got that sdk have instructions on how to install it in linux?

[07:09] <amenado> xSnOoPyx-> what is it? what is it supposed to do?
[07:09] <Seven_Six_Two> yes, I use ubuntu. maybe this isn't backscatter, and a security vulnerability in ubuntu? should I mention Ubuntu on each line?
[07:09] <user11_011> puff: ??
[07:09] <xSnOoPyx> its basically a library that integrates fingerprint identification into java . its called griaule java fingerprint sdk
[07:10] <glick> anyone?
[07:10] <nepbabu> !ask | glick
[07:10] <ubotu> glick: Please don't ask to ask a question, ask the question (all on ONE line, so others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely answer. :-)
[07:11] <Seven_Six_Two> nepbabu, is that all you do?
[07:11] <Kiljoy001> well im tired of trying to get this stuff to work... no sound no compiz ... bah back to windows =/
[07:11] <nepbabu> Seven_Six_Two, yes. u got any problem with that?
[07:11] <MagoonD> why cant I paste my clipboard from ubuntu to win xp when I am using the terminal services RDP?
[07:12] <Seven_Six_Two> !maybe | nepbabu
[07:12] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about maybe - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[07:12] <Seven_Six_Two> lol
[07:12] <nepbabu> !lol | Seven_Six_Two
[07:12] <ubotu> Seven_Six_Two: Please don't use "LOL" and "OMG" and so forth on a regular basis. This is IRC, not IM, and using those lines on their own is not required, and it is rather annoying to the rest of the people in the channel; thanks.
[07:12] <amenado> xSnOoPyx-> you install the jdk/sdk like a regular java sdk/jdk from sun, it has its own lib/ directory
[07:12] <fragged> Nope, I tried VGA=ask and set it to a low value, but still complains of a resolution that is not usable, is this a boot splash image thing? I've never played around with them and I'm new to ubuntu (from gentoo environment) so I wouldnt know if there is one normally
[07:12] <Seven_Six_Two> that's awesome
[07:12] <joot> Seven_Six_Two, dont worry about it I dont think it is personal. cant help with your q bty :)
[07:12] <xSnOoPyx> yeah but the only problem is that this so file has to go somewhere else i think
[07:12] <amenado> !who xSnOoPyx
[07:12] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about who xsnoopyx - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[07:13] <xSnOoPyx> bin   	 Contains all files required by Fingerprint SDK Java library. This folder contains (among others): grfingerjava.jar (Fingerprint SDK Java Library), libgrfingerjava.so (Linux x86 JNI) and grfingerjava.dll (Windows JNI)
[07:13] <amenado> xSnOoPyx-> as an example java gets installed at /usr/lib/jvm/
[07:13] <xSnOoPyx> thats what it says in the manual
[07:13] <MagoonD> why cant I paste my clipboard from ubuntu to win xp when I am using the terminal services RDP?
[07:13] <Seven_Six_Two> joot, thanks. and to anyone else, I'll lol all I want.
[07:13] <xSnOoPyx> identd
[07:15] <squarebracket> MagoonD: i can't tell you why, but i can tell you that i have the same problem.
[07:16] <xSnOoPyx> so amenado
[07:17] <amenado> xSnOoPyx-> what? where is the instructions to install such sdk/jdk ?
[07:18] <solid_liq> squarebracket, yeah, it'd be a good idea...  I just haven't had time for that myself, either..  You can always find me in ##linux-coders in case you figure it out and want to let me know (and remember to) ;)
[07:19] <Nidhi> \msg Nidhi REGISTER
[07:19] <fragged> Does X(Ubuntu) have a splash image embedded into kernel? if so what resolution would it be running at? I'm getting no display during boot times
[07:19] <xSnOoPyx> it says that the following libraries must be installed     * libusb-0.1.so.4
[07:19] <xSnOoPyx>     * libpthread.so.0
[07:19] <xSnOoPyx>     * libstdc++.so.6

[07:19] <FloodBot2> xSnOoPyx: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[07:19] <squarebracket> solid_liq: if i remember, i will :)
[07:20] <xSnOoPyx> those should all be in the package manager i assume?
[07:20] <noodles12> I have java and jre installed. However, this website still says i have a missing plugin and java runtime environemnt needs to be installed. What else do i need to do?
[07:20] <fragged> squarebracket, yes, yes they are, now use google to find out which packages they are in ;)
[07:21] <Hammer89> anyone know of any programs like this: http://www.briksoftware.com/products/camouflage/ for Ubuntu?
[07:22] <solid_liq> squarebracket, k thanks :)
[07:22] <greedo> hello, is there some sort of meta package that will install a gnome or kde desktop all setup for me?
[07:22] <xSnOoPyx> anybody know if those so files are in the package manager?
[07:22] <Odd-rationale> gnome-desktop
[07:23] <nepbabu> !jre | noodles12
[07:23] <ubotu> noodles12: To install a Java runtime/interpreter on Ubuntu, look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Java - For the Sun Java runtime install sun-java6-jre from the !Multiverse repository (in !Backports for !Edgy)
[07:23] <amenado> xSnOoPyx-> yeah those can be installed by synaptic if they have been installed yet
[07:23] <nepbabu> Hammer89, not that i know of
[07:23] <greedo> apt-get insatll gnome-desktop isnt finding anything
[07:23] <nepbabu> and it's osx btw Hammer89
[07:23] <Odd-rationale> greedo: Sorry, I meant ubuntu-deskyop for gnome. kubuntu-desktop for kde.
[07:23] <astro76> greedo: ubuntu-desktop and kubuntu-desktop
[07:23] <amenado> xSnOoPyx-> yeah those can be installed by synaptic if they have not* been installed yet
[07:23] <fragged> Does ubuntu have a boot splash image? I'm not sure if its a text issue or a graphical issue with this computer..
[07:23] <greedo> Thank you
[07:23] <xSnOoPyx> but theres a whole bunch of different packages which one do i install? for ex: theres libstdc++6.4.2dbg then samehting dev doc pic
[07:24] <Hammer89> nepbabu: I know that's for osx :) I was just wondering if there were any comparable programs for linux
[07:24] <nepbabu> !splash | fragged
[07:24] <ubotu> fragged: To change the Gnome splash screen, use !gnome-splashscreen-manager or change the GConf key /apps/gnome-session/options/splash_image using !gconf-editor.
[07:24] <nepbabu> Hammer89, not that i know of.
[07:24] <Hammer89> nepbabu: okay... thanks
[07:24] <fragged> nepbabu, no, not gdm, /KERNEL/
[07:24] <nepbabu> fragged, vga=ask
[07:24] <nepbabu> fragged, set the appropriate one. it should show up.
[07:25] <fragged> nepbabu, I'm pretty sure you answered that before, but there was no help at all
[07:25] <nepbabu> fragged, ok
[07:25] <xenthro> Hammer89 , one thing you can do is mark all the things on your desktop as hidden by putting a "." infront of the name. then you can hit CTRL+H to show/hide
[07:25] <squarebracket> fragged: changed a video card at all?
[07:25] <fragged> nepbabu, does that apply to those image-based splash screens?
[07:25] <fragged> squarebracket, no, this is a clean install as of tonight
[07:25] <Hammer89> xenthro: Hmmm... interesting idea
[07:26] <xSnOoPyx> any help over here with these so files?
[07:26] <nepbabu> fragged, vga=ask displays possible set of vga modes for your display.
[07:26] <nepbabu> fragged, that's all it does.

[07:30] <nepbabu> MagoonD, ~/.mozilla/plugins/
[07:30] <PKdoR> it gives me all kinds of dependency problems
[07:31] <MagoonD> what does the ~ do?
[07:31] <nepbabu> !dependency | PKdoR
[07:31] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about dependency - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[07:31] <nepbabu> ubotu, die
[07:31] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about die - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[07:31] <nepbabu> Magilla, your home directory
[07:31] <MagoonD> ok thx mate
[07:32] <PKdoR> no I mean that when I try to install awn it does not install because of missing dependencies
[07:32] <nepbabu> MagoonD, yw
[07:32] <Nyle> !kde
[07:32] <ubotu> KDE (http://kde.org) is the !desktop environment used natively in !Kubuntu. To install from Ubuntu: « sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop », or see http://help.ubuntu.com/community/InstallingKDE . Latest KDE version is 3.5.8 for Gutsy and Feisty, 3.5.6 for Edgy, and 3.5.5 for Dapper. See http://kubuntu.org for more information.
[07:32] <nepbabu> PKdoR, you need to resolve the deps.
[07:32] <nepbabu> PKdoR, install those packages first.
[07:32] <squarebracket> is there a w3 channel or something on this network?
[07:32] <jay-oh-en> whats a fun game on linux
[07:33] <jay-oh-en> after i do mediabuntu can i burn copy protected disks
[07:33] <nepbabu> jay-oh-en, super mario wars
[07:33] <nepbabu> !games | jay-oh-en
[07:33] <ubotu> jay-oh-en: Information about games on Ubuntu can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Games and http://www.icculus.org/lgfaq/gamelist.php
[07:33] <squarebracket> or web dev or something?
[07:33] <PKdoR> nepbabu: the thing is that the suppose missing dependencies are already install, and I'v sear the forums and google to no avail so now om looking for an alternative
[07:33] <MagoonD> nepbabu that didnt work its not in my home directory its under file system /usr/lib/mozilla
[07:34] <xenthro> Hammer89 , also, i cant remember how to do this, but you can just put all the icons on one desktop and then switch to another... i just cant remember how its done atm
[07:34] <Sap> hello all
[07:34] <jay-oh-en> after i do mediabuntu can i burn copy protected disks
[07:34] <nepbabu> xenthro, he's gone.
[07:34] <revilodraw> hi, i was wondering if there's a 'clean up' command for unused or semi installed programs
[07:34] <xenthro> nepbabu oh. thanks.
[07:34] <nepbabu> MagoonD, yeah in /usr/lib/mozilla then. but you can always create that directory
[07:34] <verma> Hi. I have a python script on a remote server that takes lot of time to process (which is OK). Now if run the script as bacjkground and log out of the SSH session. It will be still running on the background?
[07:34] <verma> Or am I wrong?
[07:34] <nepbabu> MagoonD, mkdir ~/.mozilla/plugins/
[07:35] <xenthro> revilodraw sudo apt-get clean
[07:35] <PKdoR> revilodraw: you mean orphaned libraries?
[07:35] <Sap> revil, from wat i've learnt try using sudo apt-get autoremove
[07:35] <xenthro> revilodraw and sudo apt-get autoremove
[07:35] <Kuwanger> verma: Depends on the server, I think.
[07:35] <joot> PKdor, how are you installing??
[07:35] <MagoonD> how do I point to /usr/lib/mozilla when I am in terminal and in another location?
[07:35] <MagoonD> yeah i made the plugin directory already
[07:36] <Bingo> would anyone be able to help a novice configure a mouse to this PC ?
[07:36] <Kuwanger> verma: Also, some programs will terminate, even if ran in the background, because by default bash will send "NOHUP" to any running tasks it spawned when it closes.
[07:36] <PKdoR> joot: Im followin the awn wiki howto
[07:36] <MagoonD> i just need the command that points to the root
[07:36] <xenthro> MagoonD "cd /usr/lib/mozilla"
[07:36] <Frogzoo_> Bingo: serial or usb?
[07:36] <Bingo> Usb
[07:36] <verma> Kuwanger, I installed Red Hat on the server. Its a standard installation. How do I check?
[07:36] <xenthro> MagoonD "cd /" = root
[07:36] <Kuwanger> verma: ERr, sorry, HUP, not NOHUP.  You can use "nohup" as a wrapper around a program to avoid programs receiving the signal.
[07:36] <Frogzoo_> Bingo: plug it in should be enough
[07:36] <joot> PKdor, how about you open synaptic and search awn??
[07:36] <MagoonD> i am not trying to go to the directory but put its location in a flash installer
[07:37] <verma> Though I am using Ubuntu at home and thus question in this room :)
[07:37] <Kuwanger> verma: The simplest way to check is to login, run a program in the background, logout, then login again and see if it's still running. :)
[07:37] <nepbabu> MagoonD, alt+f2, and type "nautilus"
[07:37] <Kuwanger> verma: And, if it fails, see if the server has nohup and try again.
[07:37] <Sap> I'd like to access IRC through Pidgin, how can I do so?
[07:37] <PKdoR> joot: with or without the 3rd party repos?
[07:37] <verma> Python with a sleep() command i guess
[07:37] <xenthro> MagoonD sorry, you can go to the top directory by typing "cd .." also, try installing midnight commander. (sudo apt-get install mc) its a file manager for the command line. very useful
[07:38] <MagoonD> ok nepbabu
[07:38] <joot> PKdor, tou can add those too if they are needed once again with synaptic
[07:38] <MagoonD> ok xenthro
[07:38] <revilodraw> thanks guys
[07:38] <Bingo> i plug it in and it flashes a few times then stops
[07:39] <PKdoR> joot:  well I just tried without the repos and awn is not ecven there
[07:39] <nepbabu> !packages | PKdoR
[07:39] <ubotu> PKdoR: You can browse and search for Ubuntu packages using !Synaptic, !Adept, "apt-cache search <keywords or regex>", the "apt:/" URL in KDE, or online at http://packages.ubuntu.com - Ubuntu has about 20000 packages available, so please *search* for an official package before installing things in awkward ways!
[07:40] <joot> PKdor, my bad you are right I just looked. Sorry I do not know the answer then  :-(

[07:47] <Saelynh> hello
[07:47] <eternalist> I'm having problems with the sound and ive already followed the guide that !sound gives you
[07:47] <eternalist> unfortunately i am unable to diagnose the problem
[07:48] <eternalist> and it's not like a fresh install and the sound wasn't working, it was working before then i mustve done something (other than muting becuase its not muted)
[07:48] <Sap> oh, the default is 6667, so u mean i change that to 8001 ?
[07:48] <nepbabu> Sap, yes
[07:48] <Nyle> eternalist: did you update anything
[07:48] <kasra> PKdoR: forget that wiki (its not loaded yet for me !) do these
[07:48] <eternalist> I don't know
[07:48] <Sap> k, done. save now?
[07:48] <eternalist> Nyle: What can I do to check if a process keeps tying up the dsp device
[07:48] <nepbabu> Sap, yes
[07:48] <eternalist> ps aux | grep "dsp"?
[07:48] <xenthro> eternalist, is it a laptop that you dual boot with windows?
[07:49] <kasra> PKdoR: you know how to add repos by editing source.list ?
[07:49] <eternalist> yes
[07:49] <eternalist> ibm thinkpad t42
[07:49] <nepbabu> eternalist, ps -ef | grep sound also
[07:49] <eternalist> nepbabu: both gave me nothing :(
[07:49] <eternalist> xenthro: what do you reckon?
[07:49] <PKdoR> kasra: not really I usually ither use the term or straight throu sypnati
[07:49] <nepbabu> eternalist, it's not being used then.
[07:49] <Sap> nepbabu, i am using the same name and it says 'NickServ: (notice) This nickname is owned by someone else'
[07:49] <nepbabu> eternalist, alsamixer?
[07:49] <Sap> so i'l log off from here and try again
[07:49] <eternalist> nepbabu: checked, it's fine
[07:49] <xenthro> eternalist, this is going to sound stupid, but it worked for me. power off your lappie, unplug the power and remove the battery for 15 secs. boot into ubuntu and see if that helps
[07:49] <nepbabu> Sap, change the nickname
[07:50] <eternalist> xenthro: oh man, i dont know if i wana remove the battery.
[07:50] <eternalist> xenthro: i dont think i even know how
[07:50] <eternalist> xenthro: okay brb
[07:50] <kasra> PKdoR: ok , first open a terminal , type sudo nano /etc/apt/source.list
[07:50] <Sap> btw, before i log off from here, how do i join #ubuntu from that pidgin window
[07:50] <joot> PKdor, my bad you are right I just looked. Sorry I do not know the answer then  :-(
[07:50] <nepbabu> eternalist, alsamixer first and see
[07:50] <eternalist> i checked
[07:50] <eternalist> its not muted
[07:50] <xenthro> eternalist, there should be a simple latch on the bottom
[07:50] <nepbabu> ok
[07:50] <Sap> nvm, i can change the nicname for now, how?
[07:50] <tijn> what does the T attribute in a file stands for?
[07:51] <nepbabu> Sap, do /ns help
[07:51] <kasra> PKdoR: nano is a simple editor , we use it to edit source.list and add some repos for apt that include awn
[07:51] <PKdoR> kasra: ok but its empty
[07:51] <joot> PKdoR, I meant to type maybe you made a key in error when you followed the howto
[07:51] <eternalist> nepbabu: OOOH PCM was all the way down
[07:51] <eternalist> jesus christ
[07:52] <nepbabu> eternalist, working now?
[07:52] <eternalist> it wasnt muted, and the volume button only controls the master not the pcm

[07:52] <Neil3> good morning folks, are there any gtk/gnome based cd cover printing applications out there? I've googled around and searched the ubuntu forums but found nothing so far apart from a kde app which I'd prefer not to use because of the kde libs i'd have to install.
[07:52] <eternalist> i overlooked that, i was just loking for the MM's to see if anything was muted
[07:52] <kasra> PKdoR: are you sure ?!! wrong address maybe

[08:26] <nepbabu> rdp, and hence your drive is corrupted, so i suggest dd/ddrescue
[08:26] <joot> rdp, if you have a single word enquiry put a ! infront of the word and the bot will spit out an answer
[08:26] <Slart> razordead: for me it has.. but I've read many questions about sound in flash so that might not be the case for everyone
[08:26] <astro76> rdp, joot actually /msg ubotu enquiry would be much better ;)

[08:38] <blue42> the grub menu
[08:39] <astro76> blue42: sudoedit or gksudo gedit
[08:39] <Slart> blue42: you'll have to edit it as root.. try this "gksudo gedit /boot/grub/menu.lst"

 I'm trying to make my bluetooth adapter work, but it is not being recognized by the system. The device (bluetooth internal) shows up under lsusb, but no under hcitool dev, Any suggestions?
[08:43] <ikonia> leonidas you'll find it easier to check the individual components on the hardware compatability list
[08:43] <brutopia> sigma: what does lsusb say about it

[08:47] <military> Hi all
[08:47] <revilodraw> ok ok here's what id like.. a white digital clock displaying the time and date 'built in' to the desktop
[08:47] <ikonia> revilodraw: I'm sure there is a desklet for that
[08:48] <kahrytan> revilodraw-> not even Windows Vista has that
[08:48] <revilodraw> ikonia; ok so i install gdesklets right?
[08:48] <revilodraw> kahrytan: linux > windows
[08:48] <ikonia> revilodraw check if there is one first
[08:48] <sigma> so, umm... anyone have any ideas for the bluetooth?
[08:48] <ikonia> kahrytan vista has desklets that do that
[08:48] <ikonia> sigma: what model laptop is it
[08:49] <sigma> Dell Inspiron E1505
[08:49] <kahrytan> ikonia->  but not 'builtin'
[08:49] <ikonia> sigma: actually, can you stick the lspci and lsusb output in a pastebin please, that make it easy
[08:49] <ikonia> kahrytan: yes it is
[08:49] <sigma> ikonia: sure, one sec
[08:49] <kahrytan> ikonia->  I dont consider widgets builtin. They just layer on top of desktop
[08:49] <ikonia> sigma: better to check your stuff than the dell pages, as sometimes revisions change
[08:50] <ikonia> kahrytan: then your being petty
[08:50] <genbuntu> umm.. i was trying to log out of a specific channel by using /quit , but it logs me out of all the channels. what's the command for logging out of a single channel?

[08:52] <ikonia> sigma: I don't see a blue tooth controller in either of those lists, is the blue tooth adaptor a usb external one

[08:54] <sigma> ikonia: 100%
[08:54] <ikonia> sigma: fair enough, this may sound silly but is the kill switch for it enabled ?
[08:54] <sigma> ikonia: haha, first thing I tried. It is... when I disable it it disappears from lsusb (which is why I'm 100% certain) :p

[08:55] <sigma> ikonia: problem started after installing xserver-xgl, problem is, I don't want to remove it... or I lose compiz

[09:03] <Srixon> i was told i should blacklist the floppy, though i do not know how :P
[09:03] <Lopin> Shoot...  I don't remember how to do a blacklist...
[09:04]  * Lopin is thinking...
[09:04] <astro76> !blacklist
[09:04] <ubotu> To blacklist a module, edit /etc/modprobe.d/my_blacklist and add « blacklist <modulename> » to the end of that list - To explicitly load modules in a specific order, list them in /etc/initramfs-tools/modules and type « sudo update-initramfs -u »
[09:04] <Srixon> rather how do i get into terminal from the ubuntu boot?

[09:05] <ZerO^Coo|> i got a lil bit of a problem here
[09:05] <Srixon> is there any way to get into terminal?
[09:06] <Lopin> Srixon, You'd have to boot into a live disk... Then you can mount stuff, and see what's going on..
[09:06] <alpaco> I tried loging in to my icq account for the first time, but pidgin says "your account is currently suspended". is that because I'm using pidgin to connect to aol servers?

[09:06] <reZo> is there a way to disable f1 shortcut key?

[09:16] <Lopin> You want to install from like windows, right?
[09:16] <famicon> just repartiton your drive, add a new file system, install ubuntu on that
[09:16] <famicon> then reboot into it
[09:16] <idefix> is the chance more likely that PC's lag after midnight?
[09:16] <Srixon> Lopin, Correct.
[09:16] <Lopin> Yeah...  There's a thing out there that does it...
[09:16] <Lopin> It's a net based installer...
[09:16] <ZerO^Coo|> no man lol
[09:16] <doktoreas> hello everybody
[09:16] <Lopin> It just adds grub to the windows boot loader list...
[09:16] <ZerO^Coo|> listen il tell you my config right now oky
[09:16] <Srixon> Famicon, Ubuntu doesnt work like that from what i've seen, windows cannot read the files.
[09:16] <xenthro> Q: i have an archive with many .tar.gz archives. how do i extract them all?
[09:16] <doktoreas> is there an emelf file manager style for GTK?
[09:16] <ZerO^Coo|> 80 gb hdd as a boot drive with 7.10 oky
[09:16] <Lopin> Then, it starts the installer images from the windows partition...
[09:17] <famicon> Srixon Im not gonna help you anymore
[09:17] <famicon> you are a clueless luser
[09:17] <ZerO^Coo|> then i had a ntfs hdd 200 gb hdd with lots of files and stuff
[09:17] <Srixon> famicon, Thanks!
[09:17] <Slart> idefix: huh? what do you mean? lag in games?
[09:17] <ZerO^Coo|> so then i conected a 120 gb hdd and backed all the stuff to the new hard disk but be fore i made it a home partition the 120 gb
[09:18] <foolkpopi> how bad does it feel to starve or is there any bad feeling at all? do i always have to stay in full stomach?
[09:18] <ZerO^Coo|> now after i removed the 200 gb from my pc the home partition its telling me that i got 9 gb space left and only got 30 gb of stuff
[09:18] <idefix> Slart yes
[09:18] <Slart> foolkpopi: do you have an ubuntu question?
[09:19] <Srixon> well i have like 10 copies of the ubuntu cd. 7.10 i just found
[09:19] <kiosk> chat
[09:19] <foolkpopi> Slart yes why does ubuntu has so many users even though it is new distro?
[09:19] <Srixon> but the UUE was great.
[09:19] <Srixon> thanks much Lopin!
[09:19] <Slart> idefix: lag depends mostly on the network.. if you use you're computer when everyone else is asleep.. then yes, i guess lag would get smaller
[09:19] <sigma> well, I know one thing now... the problem with the bluetooth isn;t because of xserver-xgl
[09:20] <Lopin_> srixon
[09:20] <Slart> foolkpopi: I can only speak for myself.. I use it because so many other people use it.. any more questions?
[09:20] <Lopin_> They leave?

[09:21] <kandinski> I am mid-install of 7.10, and it asks me which kernel do I want. I have a Pentium-M (Centrino, 1.2 Ghz) from 2004. Which kernel do I pick?
[09:21] <foolkpopi> Slart why not is it because it is bad?
[09:21] <popey> !mind > Minifig
[09:21] <popey> !mint > Minifig
[09:21] <ZerO^Coo|> sory guys i made a fault lol now i realized it hah
[09:21] <Minifig> I could use help.  I installed Mint XFCE, then installed KDE.  I don't see my NTFS partitions on the second hard drive.
[09:21] <ZerO^Coo|> sorry for any inconvenience lofl
[09:22] <popey> Minifig: #linuxmint channel for support on Linux Mint
[09:22] <Slart> foolkpopi: I have no idea.. I haven't tried it... I just tried ubuntu, I liked it and I didn't try any other distros after that
[09:22] <Minifig> Did I do something wrong?
[09:22] <Minifig> There is not really anyone there,
[09:22] <Minifig> 4 people in chat.
[09:22] <Slart> Minifig: we get a lot of people asking mint-related questions which we can't answer.. that's all
[09:22] <foolkpopi> Slart but ubuntu is laggy and slow
[09:22] <Israel_> hi
[09:23] <popey> foolkpopi: this channel is for support questions, not general chatter
[09:23] <Slart> foolkpopi: your opinion
[09:23] <Minifig> Okay, then in ubuntu, how would you access the NTFS partitions so Linux see it and can use them?
[09:23] <Slart> Minifig: use ntfs-3g.. mount the drive.. access the files
[09:23] <popey> !ntfs > Minifig
[09:23] <Minifig> Isn't it the same for different versions of Linux?
[09:23] <Minifig> Thank you
[09:23] <Slart> Minifig: linux can be very very different and strange if it wants to be =)
[09:24] <Minifig> No comments.
[09:24] <nOgAnOo> morning all
[09:24] <nOgAnOo> I'm about to install ubuntu desktop for first time evar!
[09:24] <Israel_> I removed /etc/bind and now I don't know how to get it again
[09:24] <Slart> Israel_: reinstall bind?
[09:24] <popey> Israel_: sudo apt-get install --reinstall bind
[09:25] <Israel_> aha
[09:25] <Israel_> I'm going to try it
[09:25] <Israel_> thanks
[09:25] <Israel_> I didn't try with the --reinstall option
[09:26] <Israel_> could be it?
[09:26] <popey> yes
[09:26] <Israel_> thanks :)))
[09:26] <popey> :)
[09:27] <kandinski> &window move 18
[09:28] <Israel_> the directory continues empty :/
[09:31] <hades> Hi All
[09:31] <hades> i screwed up my grub
[09:31] <kandinski> repeated question, in case someone can help:
[09:32] <kandinski> I am mid-install of 7.10, and it asks me which kernel do I want. I have a Pentium-M (Centrino, 1.2 Ghz) from 2004. Which kernel do I pick?
[09:32] <hades> i have read the tips on how to fix it
[09:32] <popey> kandinski: what options do you have?
[09:32] <kandinski> linux-generic
[09:32] <stf_> Hi. Is there a vga=*** kernel option for 1365x768?
[09:32] <kandinski> linux-image-386
[09:32] <popey> kandinski: linux-generic
[09:33] <hades> I am running the live cd trying to figure out which is my old boot partition
[09:33] <kandinski> linux-image-generic
[09:33] <stf_> Or some other kernel option I could use? Like "video=vesa:1365x768@60"?
[09:33] <hades> i can mount that boot partition, but i need to know its /dev/sda??? how do i find that out?
[09:33] <kandinski> and then linux-versionnumber-generic
[09:33] <popey> hades: fdisk -l
[09:33] <kandinski> popey, thanks
[09:33] <Israel_> stupid bind9
[09:34] <hades> Popey, i have done that, but it doesnt give me a clue which hard drive listed is at /media/disk
[09:34] <popey> "mount"
[09:34] <Hadeshorn> Also another wierd thing is that when i try and list all my partitions in gparted, no partitions are listed.. however i can mount partitions and explore them in the live cd
[09:35] <Hadeshorn> Popey thanks that helps
[09:35] <Hadeshorn> brb
[09:35] <popey> explore them and you will find boot files on the right onw
[09:35] <popey> one
[09:36] <zardosht> Hi all, -newbie- I use dual boot xp ubuntu, I want to reinstall xp, but afraid boot.ini overwritten on ubuntu grub boot loader, whats the solution ? thanks
[09:36] <Israel_> anybody can give me the /etc/bind directory?
[09:38] <popey> zardosht: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows
[09:38] <sky_> oh grub
[09:38] <zardosht> popey: thank you :)
[09:39] <popey> np
[09:40] <vanchu> anyone know where I can find compiz pluggins ?
[09:40] <popey> vanchu: the package compiz-compcomm-plugins-main has some
[09:41] <popey> vanchu: compiz-fusion-plugins-extra has more
[09:41] <hitguy> ???
[09:42] <vanchu> I'm actually looking for one that makes my computer look like a mac when I minimize and maximize windows
[09:42] <Hadeshorn> hey if my hard drive is sda1 sda2 etc my dev for that is sda?
[09:42] <popey> vanchu: the genie type effect?
[09:42] <vanchu> yeah
[09:43] <vanchu> that the one
[09:43] <popey> vanchu: i think that's one fo the default ones
[09:43] <vanchu> lol
[09:43] <popey> you can use compizconfig-settings-manager to configure it
[09:43] <popey> !ccsm
[09:43] <ubotu> To enable advanced customization of desktop effects in Ubuntu 7.10 (Gutsy), install 'compizconfig-settings-manager'. A new option will appear in your appearance properties - See also !compiz - Help in #compiz-fusion
[09:43] <popey> \o/
[09:43] <popey> Hadeshorn: if you have partitions sda1 and sda2 then yes sda is the device - or /dev/sda for the full name
[09:44] <vanchu> I couldnt find it in the options
[09:44] <Hadeshorn> popey, well it says that /dev/sda is not found or not a block device
[09:44] <Hadeshorn> grub-install /dev/sda
[09:45] <popey> Hadeshorn: but /dev/sda shows up in "fdisk -l"?
[09:45] <xst> It seems pretty impossible to get the ATI dreiver to work in gutsy (suspend/resume doesn't work). :-(  How can I get the very latest proprietary ATI-driver by using the Restricted Manager and how can I upgrade to kernel 2.6.24 (which is apparently required for that driver to work?)?
[09:45] <popey> vanchu: I can't find it either :) but I am sure it is in there
[09:46] <vanchu> hmm lol
[09:46] <popey> xst: you would either need to upgrade to the development version of ubuntu (hardy) - not recommended, or compile your own kernel (also, not recommened)
[09:46] <Hadeshorn> popey yes
[09:46] <xst> popey: So there is no other way round?
[09:47] <popey> xst: not an easy way, no
[09:47] <popey> !hardy | xst
[09:47] <ubotu> xst: Hardy Heron is the code name for the next release of Ubuntu (8.04-LTS), due April 2008 - For more info, see: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardyHeron - CONSIDER IT TO BE PRE BETA (ALPHA) SOFTWARE - Discussion and support in #ubuntu+1, NOT #ubuntu
[09:47] <sky_> why's 804 not recommended?
[09:47] <sky_> because its not ready?
[09:47] <popey> yes
[09:47] <popey> it breaks :)
[09:47] <bod_> sky_, its still in alpha ,.,.loadsa bugs
[09:48] <sky_> ah
[09:48] <sky_> dang it I wish flash was fixed...
[09:48] <popey> it is
[09:48] <popey> enable the -proposed repo
[09:48] <sky_> stupid adobe and their weird broken installs
[09:48] <popey> !flash
[09:48] <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 »
[09:49] <sky_> popey: whenever I open a few youtube/flash pages suddenly flash just... dies
[09:49] <sky_> or something
[09:49] <sky_> its screwed up
[09:49] <popey> 32-bit?
[09:49] <bod_> sky_, flash works perfectly,.,. theres just no official release of a fi
[09:49] <sky_> I'd enable Gnash if it didn't mess things up
[09:49] <sky_> 64bit
[09:49] <Hadeshorn> I really dont want to have to install ubuntu again, why cant grub just friggen work!
[09:49] <alpaco> sky_: try installing gnash instead of flash and see what happens
[09:49] <sky_> bod_: not for me.
[09:49] <bod_> sky_ im running 64 bit
[09:49] <xst> popey: I have tried all four alpha versions of Hardy in order to test screen/monitor configuration, but the System Settings>Monitor&Display has been broken in all of them. Very depressing. Also the Restricted Manager has been missing. :-(  Therefore: The (should be) simple task of configuring an external monitor to my laptop is completely impossible.
[09:49] <Hadeshorn> sky, i used to try and use 64 bit, its more hassle then its worth.. come back to 32bit
[09:50] <sky_> alpaco, flash just doesn't load properly.
[09:50] <popey> xst: thats a shame
[09:50] <bod_> !flashissues
[09:50] <ubotu> The Flash plugin installation is currently broken. This is due to Adobe changing the tar file that the package downloads. Fixes have landed in -proposed for testing, but most most users are advised to wait until packages are approved and released in -updates.
[09:50] <bod_> what happened to the forum link?
[09:50] <sky_> but install flash from? synaptic or add/remove?
[09:50] <sky_> or from firefox, bod_ ?
[09:50] <bod_> sky_no dont do that
[09:50] <bod_> sky_dont do either of them
[09:50] <sky_> don't do what?
[09:50] <jason> well that flash bug would affect installation... flash would never work, it wouldn't work and then stop working
[09:50] <popey> sky_: enable the -proposed repository
[09:50] <sky_> popey, I have all repos enabled.
[09:50] <bod_> popey, is it in there
[09:51] <shadukan> i installed the latest flash from adobe using a tar ball and it works fine
[09:51] <popey> yes bod_
[09:51] <shadukan> :D
[09:51] <shadukan> no need for gnash
[09:51] <sky_> so heres what I plan to do
[09:51] <sky_> uninstall via synaptic
[09:51] <sky_> reinstall from synaptic?
[09:51] <bod_> popey, is the proposed repo in sources.list as standard?
[09:51] <coyctecm> i have been developing application with gtk# and mono. my app uses libgtkembedmoz
[09:51] <bod_> sky_bad plan
[09:51] <popey> bod_: not enabled by default
[09:51] <coyctecm> no problems here
[09:51] <coyctecm> BUT
[09:51] <bod_> popey, but in tthere?
[09:52] <popey> bod_: how many times do you want me to say "yes"?
[09:52] <sky_> bod_, tell me a good plan?
[09:52] <bod_> sky_, just uninstall il get you the link of the fix
[09:52] <coyctecm> when I try to run the program it gets sigsegv
[09:52] <jason> sky_, you cannot install flash from the repo's because of the bug, th einstallation will fail
[09:52] <bod_> popey, are you sure?
[09:52] <sky_> jason, ironically its not the installation that fails
[09:52] <coyctecm> because of libgtkembedmoz.so
[09:52] <popey> aaaargh
[09:52] <popey> bod_: yes!
[09:52] <popey> jeez
[09:52] <sky_> but rather the flash itself...
[09:52] <sky_> I can install flash without a hitch
[09:52] <bod_> popey, will it be in mine?
[09:52] <popey> enable the -proposed repo
[09:52] <alpaco> somebody please check and see if IceCat is in the repos
[09:52] <sky_> Its just that when I view a flash page, it sometimes screws up...
[09:52] <popey> alpaco: packages.ubuntu.com
[09:52] <coyctecm> if i add /usr/lib/firefox to /etc/ld.so.conf
[09:53] <alpaco> popey: thanks
[09:53] <sky_> like, y'know a youtube video? suddenly everything flash turns to grey.
[09:53] <eternalist> how can i get libglade 2.4 on ubuntu
[09:53] <sky_> bod_, link to fix, please?
[09:53] <eternalist> apt only offers libglade 2.0
[09:53] <popey> sky_: just enable the proposed repo and install flash
[09:53] <bod_> sky_its the g4 bit paragraph in blue writing you want, ok? : http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=636397
[09:53] <bod_> g4=64
[09:54] <sky_> popey: actually thats what I did...
[09:54] <Hadeshorn> can anyone explain to me why that in the live cd, all my partitions are showing up.. however when i use gparted, it states that the whole drive is unallocated???
[09:54] <alpaco> bod_: uninstall flash and install gnash from synaptic, it might fix your problem
[09:54] <Hadeshorn> is there some disk tool i can use where it looks at the drive and fixes this issue??
[09:54] <coyctecm> it gets sigsegv, but if I just type export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/lib/firefox; export MOZILLA_FIVE_HOME=/usr/lib/firefox; mono app.exe
[09:54] <coyctecm> everything works
[09:54] <meshugga> hey chaps
[09:55] <bod_> alpaco, no,.,. bad idea,. dw my lash is fine,. its sky_'s who's got broke flash
[09:55] <alpaco> bod_: gnash is gnu flash player, and i hear it renders youtube .flv files flawlessly
[09:55] <coyctecm> why this app crashes when /usr/lib/firefox is added to /etc/ld.so.conf
[09:55] <bod_> im aware but it doesnt do it very well on my 64 bit system
[09:55] <vanchu> I think I found it
[09:55] <sky_> alpaco, it renders .flv files flawlessly yes, but not .swf files
[09:55] <sky_> not for me at least.
[09:55] <vanchu> its under animations
[09:55] <vanchu> it shows a magic lamp
[09:55] <sky_> The options it has is better than flash's though :)
[09:55] <popey> thats the one vanchu
[09:55] <sky_> If only it worked properly...
[09:56] <alpaco> sky_: I haven't given gnash a try, just trying to be helpful :p
[09:56] <vanchu> I cant get it to work lol
[09:56] <popey> sky_: this is why i dont run 64-bit
[09:56] <sky_> alpaco: and I thank you for that.
[09:56] <bod_> sky_, gnash is not  fix,,.,.have you installed the flash package from that thread?
[09:56] <popey> more trouble than it's worth

[09:56] <Hadeshorn> can anyone explain to me why that in the live cd, all my partitions are showing up.. however when i use gparted, it states that the whole drive is unallocated???

It's up to you to choose, depending on your preferences, features you require, and other factors. Do NOT take polls in the channel. If you insist on getting people's opinions, join #ubuntu-bots and ask there.
[10:04] <bod_> nemilar, yer,. sorry
[10:04] <led> hello!
[10:04] <bod_> hi
[10:04] <alpaco> changingnicknigs: there are many movie player for linux, try them and stick to whichever you like best
[10:04] <nemilar> Yizzo
[10:04] <led> I have a problemi with fluxbox

[10:04] <alpaco> changingnicknigs: I love totem
[10:04] <blahblah00> !grub
[10:04] <ubotu> grub is the default Ubuntu boot manager. Lost grub after installing windows: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows - Making GRUB floppies & other GRUB howtos: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto
[10:04] <enroldlinux> anybody know  becouse not run ubuntu 7.10 in netebook??
[10:05] <enroldlinux> sorry
[10:05] <enroldlinux> why
[10:05] <led> i can't change theme of fluxbox
[10:05] <changingnicknigs> alpaco does differnt movie player has different codec and gives different quality like the old days divxplayer?
[10:05] <nemilar> led: is this your first time using linux?  just 'cause fluxbox is pretty advanced
[10:05]  * syc_ is listening to The Cardigans - Carnival
[10:05] <nemilar> syc_: please don't use those scripts in here
[10:05] <SleepingSloth> can anyone tell me how i would find out what process is accessing my hard drive?
[10:05] <bod_> led,  wrong, you just dont know how,.,.you thinking in windows,. if you dont like it,. programme a theme for t,,.;)
[10:06] <syc_> nemilar: what script ?
[10:06] <syc_> nemilar: i dont use any script
[10:06] <nemilar> syc_: or just saying what you're listening to (most people use a script to broadcast that).. it's very offtopic.  You can do that in #ubuntu-offtopic if you like
[10:06] <alpaco> changingnicknigs: don't know, but I have downloaded codecs for totem and I'm playing pirated movies without a problem
[10:06] <syc_> nemilar:  ups
[10:07] <syc_> nemilar:  i'm sorry
[10:07] <syc_> it wont happen again
[10:07] <sky_> wonder if I have to reinstall firefox if this thing still doesn't work
[10:07] <nemilar> it's okay, just trying to keep things support-oriented here
[10:07] <bod_> nemilar, actually you get !ot 'd if you do that in ubuntu-offtopic
[10:07] <led> I copy the dir of fluxbox themes in /usr/local/share/fluxbox/styles , but the style of colour change, but the window no :(
[10:07] <nemilar> haha, I've never seen anyone do it in -ot before
[10:07] <Guest17098> hello friends :)
[10:07] <bod_> nemilar, i got banned from !ot for arguien about something in here,.,.lol
[10:07] <nemilar> led: for fluxbox, the colors of the windows are the primary things you change
[10:08] <nemilar> led: you can change how the buttons look, but you can't do all too much, if I remember correctly.  Been a while since I've used flux, though.
[10:08] <meshugga> popey: ok, i figured it out
[10:08] <led> sorry for my bad english, but I'm Italian ^^
[10:09] <nemilar> led: have you looked at http://fluxbox.sourceforge.net/ ?

[10:09] <Peanut> I have a MacBookPro with MacOSX and Ubuntu on it. I'd like to expand the Ubuntu partition a bit. So my plan is to use the MacOSX 'resizeVolume' to decrease the apple partition by 5GB - but the next question is, how do I then add this 5GB to the Linux side?
[10:09] <nemilar> haha Frogzoo you are leet
[10:09] <changingnicknigs> alpaco lol how come police dos arrest you?
[10:09] <Frogzoo> nemilar: lol
[10:10] <alpaco> changingnicknigs: how come :)?
[10:10] <sky_> woot it sorta works now!
[10:10] <popey> alpaco, changingnicknigs take this elsewhere!
[10:10] <sky_> yay
[10:10] <nemilar> Peanut: you can use the ubuntu liveCD, or a Gparted livecd, to expand your linux partitions.  The unallocated space and the partition you want to add it to have to be right next to each other, though
[10:10] <bod_> !yay | sky_
[10:10] <ubotu> sky_: Glad you made it! :-)
[10:10] <sky_> thanks popey, bod_, alpaco
[10:10] <bod_> ;)
[10:10] <sky_> hopefully this doesn't screw up again though
[10:10] <bod_> lol,.,.yr
[10:10] <sky_> its funny.... the last time flash was working fine, except for youtube
[10:11] <bod_> ouch
[10:11] <Peanut> nemilar: Ah, using the original boot CD, I hadn't thought of that, thanks. Does that even work if the additional space for Linux will be at the start, not the end of the partition that is being grown?
[10:11] <Guest17098> this room is about computer science ???
[10:11] <popey> Peanut: you can move the linux part "down" the disk
[10:11] <dgjones> !ubuntu | Guest17098
[10:11] <ubotu> Guest17098: Ubuntu is a complete Linux-based operating system, freely available with both community and professional support. It is developed by a large community and we invite you to participate too! - Also see http://www.ubuntu.com
[10:11] <Peanut> popey: without losing my current installation?
[10:11] <popey> Peanut: yup :)
[10:11] <Peanut> Wow :-)
[10:11] <nemilar> Peanut: you can use the bootCD, as long as it's a liveCD.  Gparted comes with it, it's somewhere in the system menu under "disk partitioner" or something of that sort.  The free space can be on either side of the partition, as long as it's next to it.
[10:11] <popey> Peanut: backup first though :)
[10:11] <nemilar> Peanut: ^^^ what popey just said ;)
[10:12] <Peanut> I have a backup of the MacOS size (Time Machine), have to see how I'm going to backup the Linux side before actually doing this.
[10:12] <gmina> yo
[10:12] <Peanut> But that shouldn't be too hard, thanks.
[10:12] <nemilar> Peanut: if you like time machine, you might consider TimeVault on Linux: www.techthrob.com/tech/timevault.php
[10:12] <bod_> Peanut, you have a time machine?
[10:13] <gmina> pl??

[10:13] <HEP> How do I start an X program from a terminal?
[10:13] <led> later I write unzip *.zip , and cp -r Black_harmony /usr/local/share/fluxbox/styles
[10:14] <Peanut> nemilar: well.. like - there's a few problems with it if you have a laptop: first, it won't use, e.g. the free space on your local disk to store changes when not connected to your backup media. And also, it doesn't work well with FileVault (encrypted filesystem, also nice on a laptop).
[10:14] <nemilar> HEP: just run the command, it'll start right up
[10:14] <HEP> no. it says can't open X server
[10:14] <popey> HEP: start the program as the same user that started X
[10:14] <led> the style of colours is change, but the buttons of window no :(
[10:14] <Peanut> I hope we'll get proper ZFS on MacOSX soon, that should make TimeMachine work much better.
[10:14] <Makuseru> hi, whenever i try to start VisualBoyAdvance-gtk it says "bash: visualboyadvance-gtk: command not found" but i know i have it installed because when i try to install it again i get visualboyadvance-gtk is already the newest version." what could stop this from opening?
[10:15] <popey> Makuseru: dpkg -L visualboyadvance-gtk
[10:15] <nemilar> Peanut: heh, those are some good points.  You'd have to manually switch your backup directories for TimeVault, too.. but it should work fine with any filesystem linux can read
[10:15] <popey> Makuseru: that will tell you the names of files in that package, then look for the name of the file in the /usr/bin folder
[10:15] <HEP> DISPLAY is not set

[10:19] <popey> za1: what did you change?
[10:19] <popey> alpaco: don't troll
[10:19] <SleepingSloth> Frogzoo, i think it's because it's trying to print something to file, rather than stdout
[10:19] <nemilar> HEP: in your X session, open a terminal and type "echo $DISPLAY" ; it should say something like :0.0    Then back in TTY1, run: 'export DISPLAY="[contents of $DISPLAY in X]"  so e.g, 'export DISPLAY=":0.0"
[10:19] <nemilar> HEP: I believe that should work
[10:20] <HEP> nemilar: it works. thank you very much!

[10:27] <bod_> nemilar,  but what do decss do?

[10:27] <moidekar> Hi, I'm a Python newbie having problems with an example script with PyUNO on 7.10. Error pasted at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/54971/ and the script is the hello_world.py sample program at http://udk.openoffice.org/python/python-bridge.html#intro. That page has instructions for Windows and mentions using a "python" script/batch file instead of the Python binary. I looked through /usr/share/openoffice and /usr/lib/openoffice, and Googled and searched th
[10:27] <moidekar> e Ubuntu wiki for pyuno, but no pointers. Please help?
[10:27] <balbir_> it's very annoying , how can i fix it?
[10:28] <pluffsy> is it possible to search through a directory recursively for a string in the content of all text files (not just the filenames) on a standard server without beagle and that sort of modern stuff? it's okey if the search is slow.
[10:28] <bod_> moidekar, join python
[10:28] <nemilar> bod_: it's anti-dvd-copy-protection software
[10:28] <nemilar> yay!  Mez to the rescue!
[10:28] <Frogzoo> SleepingSloth: that alias will pinpoint heavy disk usage, well, it works for me
[10:28] <moidekar> bod_, OK, thanks, will ask there.
[10:28] <bod_> moidekar, ty
[10:28] <bod_> nemilar, what cant i do because of that?
[10:29] <Frogzoo> pluffsy: find . -exec grep "blah blah" {} \; -print  should do
[10:29] <nemilar> bod_: after you install libdvdread3, run 'sudo /usr/share/doc/libdvdread3/install-css.sh' and it will install it
[10:29] <bod_> nemilar, what cant i do because of that?/
[10:29] <bod_> nemilar,  ok ty
[10:29] <pluffsy> Frogzoo: thanks a lot. may I ask what the {} \; does if you have time to answer that.
[10:29] <nemilar> bod_: some DVDs use CSS to prevent playback on non-authorized devices.

[10:31] <Frogzoo> neeto: man ssh
[10:31] <moidekar> bod_, yes, why?

[10:31] <bod_> moidekar, if its the hello world your having problems with, i can help,.,. the python boys might ignore you
[10:31] <popey> rama_8086: what do you mean by 'images' ?
[10:32] <fragged> neeto, look into storing the keys, theres a way that ssh root@box will send an authentication key (NOT a password) which means only your computer can login with that key
[10:32] <rama_8086> popey , the icon images
[10:32] <Frogzoo> SleepingSloth: remove the " delimiters, and either put it in ~/.bash_aliases or just enter at a command prompt, then run 'iostat'
[10:32] <nemilar> neeto: I'm...pretty.... sure you can't do that.
[10:32] <popey> rama_8086: /usr/share/pixmaps usually
[10:32] <nemilar> neeto: if you just want to make ssh'ing to somewhere seamless, you can setup a key pair, and it won't ask you for a password when you login
[10:33] <moidekar> bod_, I just copied and pasted the program from http://udk.openoffice.org/python/python-bridge.html#intro and it fails while importing pyuno. If you can help, I sure would appreciate it!

[10:39] <Frogzoo> fragged[away]: I think internode's is for their customers only
[10:39] <rama_8086> I want to implement my own mplayer that's y i needed all icon images for creating mplayer where can i get
[10:39] <bod_> anyone no how i can make apt stop asking for the cd, i want it to go online and get the stuff
[10:39] <enzo_5> i never remember, how can i know the ubuntu version i'm running ?
[10:40] <Frogzoo> SleepingSloth: ~/.bash_aliases only needs be readable
[10:40] <kasra> bod_: uncheck /comment the live cd from repos
[10:40] <Frogzoo> SleepingSloth: it's usually sourced from ~/.bashrc

[10:40] <pengo> is there any disadvantage of going 64bit? (on an intel core2 duo lenovo laptop, will be dual booting with 32-bit vista)
[10:41] <kandinski> nemilar: I am installing
[10:41] <Frogzoo> enzo_5: lsb_release -a
[10:41] <SleepingSloth> frogzoo - but having run that command CLI, surely i've overridden the alias, or something?
[10:41] <kandinski> no software sources controls, no ping either
[10:41] <enzo_5> thanks Frogzoo
[10:41] <kandinski> installing a laptop with no cd drive, so netboot and netinstall is the only way to go
[10:41] <_ruben> or usb
[10:41] <Spinello> ©îªø â †µ††î!!! :D
[10:42] <bod_> nemilar,  something went wrong with that installing script u told me to do,..,. make: *** [build-stamp] Error 77
[10:43] <bullgard4> [Gnome] I would like to determine what command line command is executed if I click Main menu > System > Quit > Hibernate. How to proceed?
[10:43] <reZo> is there any software for linux that can speak text out loud for you to listen to?
[10:43] <reZo> such as, a txt file?
[10:43] <rama_8086> where can i get video player icons of mplayer
[10:45] <bod_> !repeat > rama_8086            please read the private message from ubotu
[10:45] <nemilar> bod_: paste-bin it
[10:45] <pengo> is there any disadvantage of installing 64-bit ubuntu over 32-bit? (on an intel core2 duo, will be dual booting with 32-bit vista)
[10:45] <popey> pengo: depends what you do with the machine, in general though "no"
[10:45] <nemilar> pengo: 64-bit is more unstable to some people
[10:45] <popey> pengo: er, no advantages that is :)
[10:46] <bod_> nemilar, http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/54974/
[10:46] <nemilar> pengo: the basic question is, how much ram does the system have?
[10:46] <pengo> nemilar: 2 gig
[10:46] <dgjones> reZo, there's something called festival in the universe repo, that might be the type of thing you're lookinig for
[10:46] <nemilar> bod_: need to install build-essential
[10:46] <pengo> nemilar: so 64 bit uses more ram without any significant advantage?
[10:46] <bod_> nemilar,  ok
[10:46] <reZo> dgjones: awesome thanks, i'll chekc it out
[10:46] <nemilar> pengo: go with the 32-bit... 64-bit is required to use more than 4GB of ram
[10:46] <popey> pengo: no, 64-bit _can_ access more memory
[10:46] <pengo> nemilar: ah k thakns
[10:47] <popey> (more than you have) :)
[10:47] <dgjones> reZo, this looks like a useful page for you https://help.ubuntu.com/community/TextToSpeech
[10:47] <reZo> :D
[10:47] <reZo> legend
[10:47] <reZo> also, espeak looks good, got told about it in #debian ^__^
[10:47] <Frogzoo> to access more than 4gig of memory, you need 64 bit
[10:47] <kasra> reZo: ktts
[10:48] <Frogzoo> reZo: espeak?
[10:48] <reZo> Frogzoo: ya, it's free / open source, espeak.sourceforge.net
[10:49] <bod_> nemilar, ok,. i think the script worked this time,.,. it said quite allot of stuff,.,.lol
[10:49] <reZo> okay, i think i have enough for the moment, thank you very much :D
[10:49] <toresn> hi, i'd like to list the directories and subdirectories in a certain directory, how do i do that?  i know  'ls -R' will list directories and subdirectories, but that will include the files as well
[10:49] <nemilar> bod_: probably... if no "Error" lines, then it worked
[10:49] <nemilar> bod_: "Warning" lines are okay
[10:49] <pengo> so 64 bit memory pointers is basically all 64 bit gives you? hmm.  i guess that makes sense really. always imagined it would go faster or something.
[10:49] <Frogzoo> reZo: k, thx
[10:49] <bod_> nemilar, is there a ay to grep the output after ts been outpur?,.,. and the film is playing now so is all good
[10:50] <nemilar> pengo: well... 64-bit should really /be/ better.  But because of the n00bs that write software, it isn't.
[10:50] <pengo> nemilar: ah k :)
[10:50] <nemilar> bod_: no, but if it's working, then it's probably working
[10:50] <bod_> nemilar, ok, cool heers
[10:50] <popey> pengo: video encoding is faster
[10:51]  * bod_ is watching ali g
[10:51] <pengo> popey: any idea by how much? (to give me an idea)
[10:51] <popey> not enough to be worthwhile IMO
[10:51] <popey> I do a lot of video encoding and all my machines are 64-bit capable, but i run 32-bit ubuntu on them
[10:51] <nemilar> pengo: basically, most applications aren't written to take advantage of the extra 32 bits, and a lot of applications wind up having problems with it.  Which is why most people prefer 32-bit unless they need the 64 to access their memory
[10:51] <pengo> popey: heh fair enough
[10:52] <pengo> nemilar: yup that's the idea i got..
[10:52] <popey> we run 64-bit linux at work, but that's because the boxes have lots of RAM - like more than 32GB
[10:53] <ZerO^Coo|> can some one hrlp me to configure samba shares please
[10:53] <nemilar> RAMMMMMMM
[10:53] <popey> !samba
[10:53] <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.
[10:53] <nemilar> ugh I hate samba questions.  I just hate samba, really.  and therefore I hate samba questions.
[10:54] <SleepingSloth> nemilar, but they are quite simple
[10:54] <SleepingSloth> (as long as they work)
[10:54] <nemilar> SleepingSloth: lol, samba and I just don't get along
[10:54]  * popey hugs samba
[10:54] <pengo> hmm.. 32GB should be enough to run vista
[10:54] <nemilar> die, popey
[10:54] <popey> o_o
[10:54] <SleepingSloth> nemilar, i dont dance either ;)
[10:54] <pengo> (joke)
[10:54] <nemilar> lol
[10:55] <ZerO^Coo|> is there any easier way from gui
[10:55] <popey> in a word, no
[10:56] <debaser_> guys is there an alternative to alsa
[10:56] <Peanut> debaser_: aoss
[10:56] <pengo> huh? there's samba config in a gui
[10:59] <debaser_> Peanut, i found no info regarding aoss
[11:00] <Peanut> Sorry, typo: OSS, OpenSound System.
[11:00] <popey> debaser_: there is pulseaudio
[11:00] <popey> !pulseaudio
[11:00] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about pulseaudio - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[11:00] <popey> bah
[11:02] <sss> I upgraded my ubuntu from dapper to edgy using the update manager
[11:03] <sss> when I do lsb_release -a, it shows release as 6.10 and codename as edgy
[11:03] <reZo> does anyone know of a software license that supports open source, but to the client, they have to pay, but anyone can help develop the open source product, and it's free for personal usage
[11:04] <sss> but my update-manager version described by dpkg -l update-manager is  0.42.2ubuntu22.2
[11:04] <sss> when it should have been 0.45.2 as specified in https://wiki.ubuntu.com/EdgyUpdatesEnabled
[11:04] <sss> any ideas of what could be wrong?
[11:04] <danielski_pl> i fkd my ubuntu up bad lol, have to reinstall now
[11:04] <popey> sss: do you have the -updates and -proposed repos enabled?
[11:05] <sss> popey: enabled where?
[11:05] <popey> system -> admin -> software sources
[11:05] <popey> in the updates tab
[11:05] <abuyazan> join #mailscanner
[11:06] <noneo> reZo: are you looking for something similar to BSD? Open, but anybady can close a branch and get money on it. Is an idea, I didn't read every line :-)
[11:07] <sss> under system->admin I have a software preferences tab
[11:07] <popey> thats it sss
[11:07] <popey> it changed name in recent releases :)
[11:08] <sss> and in this for the Internet Updates tab, i have check for updates automatically checked
[11:08] <reZo> noneo: only the creating company may sell the product, but it's open source, people can create patches etc, and it's free source for personal usage. commerical usage must pay, sort of thing
[11:08] <reZo> i haven't read the bsd lisense yet,
[11:08] <popey> sss: do you have an "updates" tab?
[11:08] <sss> nope
[11:08] <reZo> only read the MIT license so far, which is free no matter what it sounds like
[11:08] <sss> I only have 3 tabs: Installation Media, Internet Updates and Authentication
[11:08] <reZo> the idea is for a e-commerce product
[11:09] <reZo> it's open source, etc
[11:09] <reZo> and avaiable to public via svn,
[11:09] <reZo> but for someone who wants to use it for commerical purposes, must pay
[11:09] <reZo> well, purposes of gaining money in any way, shape or form
[11:09] <MagoonD> how do I find out what version of KDE I am running in terminal?
[11:09] <popey> sss: one of the tabs has "proposed" and "recommended updates" ?
[11:10] <popey> sss: sorry, it's a while since I used edgy :)
[11:10] <noneo> reZo: such license can't be "open source". The idea of OS is "freedom". Thats why MySQL, RedHat _asks_ for donation/contribusion/requesting additional services.
[11:10] <popey> reZo / noneo, can you take this elsewhere please
[11:10] <reZo> popey: okay, noneo ah right.
[11:11] <reZo> i'll research it now in my own time, thanks though.
[11:11] <sss> popey: I dont see any of the tabs you mention .
[11:11] <sss> popey: Infact none of the tabs have "proposed" or "recommended updates" in them
[11:11] <popey> can you take a screenshot of it?
[11:11] <sss> I can
[11:13] <MagoonD> how do I know if I am running KDE or not, is that what ubuntu gutsy comes with?
[11:13] <sss> popey: and upload it where or how does I send it ?
[11:13] <sss> sss: the image I mean
[11:13] <popey> sss: a free online service like imageshack?
[11:13] <sss> popey:sure
[11:13] <popey> MagoonD: do you have a menu at the top or bottom of the screen? :)
[11:13] <MagoonD> top
[11:13] <popey> MagoonD: and is your desktop predominantly brown or blue?
[11:14] <MagoonD> brown
[11:14] <popey> MagoonD: you have ubuntu/gnome then
[11:14] <MagoonD> ok i need a gnome app that tells me the weather is there such a thing?
[11:14] <popey> MagoonD: yes, right click the panel at the top of the screen and choose "add to panel"
[11:14] <popey> MagoonD: you will find a weather panel applet
[11:15] <MagoonD> sweet thanks
[11:15] <popey> np
[11:16] <Sergo21> hi all ubunters:)
[11:16] <Rodolfo> How can I run X Server in 16-bit mode?
[11:17] <popey> Rodolfo: 16-bit colour?
[11:17] <Rodolfo> popey: yea
[11:18] <popey> can i ask why?
[11:18] <Rodolfo> popey: sure. for a better gaming performance (using Cedehga)
[11:18] <noneo> Rodolfo: in /etc/X11/xorg.conf line DefaultDepth 24
[11:18] <popey> ahhh, makes sense
[11:18] <Rodolfo> Cedega*
[11:18] <Rodolfo> noneo: thanks :)

[11:20] <popey> sss: ah, ok
[11:21] <popey> sss: it's probably easier to edit the sources file directly, can you pastebin your /etc/apt/sources.list ?
[11:21] <sss> popey: sure
[11:21] <PKdoR> how can I restore imwheel startup conf?
[11:21] <PKdoR> I think I crwered up trying to configure a multi button mouse

[11:22] <sss> popey: my sources.list http://pastie.caboo.se/148172
[11:22] <esox> hello, my capslock and numlock leds no more work since a few days. Does someone have an idea ?
[11:23] <shishirm1> hi can any1 help me with running tomcat on gutsy
[11:23] <popey> sss: did you say you have tried to upgrade to edgy but you were concerned it had the wrong update-manager?
[11:23] <sss> popey: thats right :)
[11:24] <popey> sss: and you are up to date with your dapper updates?
[11:24] <SleepingSloth> esox- ideas... make sure it's not hardware - test it on another machine if possible. also, is it usb or ps/2?
[11:24] <sss> popey: I have two updates left for postgres
[11:24] <sss> and it refuses to upgrade due to some inconsistent state
[11:24] <sss> is it coz of these missing upgrades that I have a wrong update-manager?
[11:25] <SleepingSloth> right chaps, what media player do you use for music?
[11:25] <popey> sss: can you pastebin the result of "sudo apt-get dist-upgrade" ?
[11:25] <shishirm1> i have installed tomcat
[11:25] <popey> oh hang on, no dont
[11:25] <shishirm1> but its not running can any1 help
[11:25] <SleepingSloth> i've tried several, and they all have shortcomings, or foibles
[11:25] <popey> 0.42.2ubuntu22 is the current update-manager in dapper
[11:26] <bubuntu> anyone can give me an advice, my ubuntu gusty doesn't detect any usb device? but i can see them in usbview
[11:26] <sss> popey: I am lost...I upgraded from dapper to edgy and I thought the update-manager version should now be 0.45.2
[11:26] <fifo_> What is the "alternate desktop cd/iso" ?
[11:26] <popey> sss what does lsb-release -a say you are running?
[11:27] <sss> popey: Edgy
[11:27] <popey> sss:  your sources.list says dapper
[11:27] <sss> popey: why is that? During upgradation wont the sources.list be modified ..?
[11:27] <popey> should be sss
[11:28] <popey> sss: i would edit sources.list and fudge all "dapper" to "edgy" then apt-get update && apt-get dist-upgrade
[11:28] <popey> sounds like the machine is in a funny state
[11:28] <sss> popey: :) sure, let me try this
[11:29] <cookie_> hello
[11:29] <shishirm1> tomact help can any1
[11:29] <sss> popey: thanks for your  time :) Will update you shortly if the fix you mentioned worked or not :)
[11:29] <cookie_> I downloaded google earth and it is a bin file. how do I make it executable?
[11:29] <cookie_> to install it
[11:29] <popey> cool sss
[11:29] <esox> SleepingSloth: they work on windows...
[11:29] <nemilar> cookie_: in the terminal, chmod +x whatever.bin
[11:29] <Frogzoo> cookie_: chmod +x
[11:29] <cookie_> ok
[11:29] <popey> cookie_: right click it :)
[11:30] <PKdoR> my x11 folder is missing imwheel and ubuntu won't start
[11:30] <nemilar> cookie_: or, actually, you can rightclick on it, and go into the permissions and set it as executable
[11:30] <cookie_> THANK YOU
[11:30] <cookie_> so chmod and chown
[11:30] <cookie_> these are the ones magical commands
[11:30] <cookie_> thans
[11:30] <cookie_> thanks*
[11:30] <nemilar> chmod = change permissions; chown = change owner
[11:30] <SleepingSloth> esox - usb or ps2?

[11:31] <esox> SleepingSloth: its a laptop
[11:32] <SleepingSloth> esox. that is important information to help anyone trying to fix your problem... which isn't me in this instance
[11:32] <shishirm1> ok can any1 atleast tell me should there be a cgi-bin folder in my www folder
[11:32] <Eis_Koenigin> hallo
[11:32] <shishirm1> if yes what files should it have?
[11:33] <bubuntu> hi, anyone can give me an advice, my ubuntu gusty doesn't detect any usb device? but i can see them in usbview

[11:34] <digian05> salve a tutti
[11:34] <pluffsy> how can I grep a line that ends with either .foo or .bar like grep -v '\.foo$ OR \.bar' ?
[11:35] <pluffsy> ops I mean  grep -v '\.foo$ OR \.bar$'
[11:36] <Slart> pluffsy: try '\.(foo|bar)$   just a quick guess
[11:36] <Slart> pluffsy: you might have to use egrep or grep -e instead ..
[11:37] <linduxed> i updated the linux-headers yesterday and i can't boot now, any ideas?
[11:37] <AdvoWork> Each day, I need to keep doing:    sudo /etc/init.d/samba stop  then sudo /etc/init.d/samba start then sudo smbumount /home/mydir and followed by: sudo smbmount //otherpc/files /home/mydir -o username=administrator,password=passy,workgroup=domain.com,dmask=777,fmask=777,rw
[11:37] <pluffsy> Start: Thanks I'll try that.
[11:37] <AdvoWork> Is there a way to automate that, or something along those lines? :s
[11:37] <cookie_> is there any manual onlin eor book to learn all about the bash
[11:38] <cookie_> like to the point where you will not need the GUI
[11:38] <Slart> cookie_: there is a lot of info on the net.. advanced scripting, tips and tricks etc
[11:38] <Slart> AdvoWork: you could put it all in a script and just run that.. you'll still have to enter your passwd though
[11:39] <AdvoWork> Slart manually enter the password though?
[11:39] <AdvoWork> or just in that line as above?
[11:39] <Slart> AdvoWork: you'll have to enter it manuallt every time you run the script
[11:39] <AdvoWork> how come though?
[11:40] <Slart> AdvoWork: I read somewhere about a way to automate it.. something like saving your password in a file and restricting access to that file to your script only.. check the man page for sudo
[11:40] <AdvoWork> Slart ahh, now you've said it, I think ive seen that
[11:40] <pluffsy> Slart: Darn. Didn't seem to work. Any other ideas? :) I've been reading some regex manuals, but I can't find anything on this
[11:41] <Slart> pluffsy: I'm trying some stuff here.. give me a minute
[11:41] <pluffsy> Slart: sure. thanks a lot.
[11:42] <miguel_c> Hi there! Anyone knows a tutorial to configure a dual monitor desktop with two different monitor resolutions and no dead zone?
[11:42] <Frogzoo> !docs | cookie_
[11:42] <ubotu> cookie_: documentation is to be found at http://help.ubuntu.com and http://wiki.ubuntu.com - General linux documentation: http://www.tldp.org - http://rute.2038bug.com
[11:43] <sky_> flash is still somewhat broken :(
[11:43] <miguel_c> With twinview I've a deadzone, and the only way i dont get a deadzone is using the "separate X screen" option on nvidia-settings
[11:43] <miguel_c> but of course, that's not what I wish..
[11:44] <miguel_c> If anyone knows if at least it's possible to work on twinview without having a deadzone, it's a help
[11:45] <error1893> hi all
[11:47] <Eis_Koenigin> huhu
[11:48] <theunixgeek> I'm running Gutsy and have installed Emerald for Compiz themes. There are no themes builtin, and I thought there were. And how do I get the 3d cube desktop?
[11:48] <Administrator>  is ubuntu better than debian??
[11:48] <forg> Would ubuntu autorecognise a new SATA HD. I'm using pci controller card (tried two just in case one was faulty), but neither gparted in ubuntu-installed nor the ubuntu install dvd recognise it. Do I need to type something to activated it? Thanks in advance.
[11:49] <forg> (the pci card is listed in lspci)
[11:49] <dgjones> Administrator, its all relative, asking in here, the answer is most likely to be yes, if you ask in #debian, they'll say debian is better
[11:49] <Pentarex> guys i have a big problem here can anyone help me please
[11:49] <Administrator> nice answer
[11:50] <Pentarex> i have problem with /etc/passwd file
[11:50] <Pentarex> lets say i have make uid 1000 to 00
[11:50] <miguel_c> Sorry to repeat myself. Anyone knows how to setup a twinview with different resolutions per monitor and no dead zone?
[11:51] <Pentarex> how i can turn it back ?
[11:51] <Pentarex> Administrator: can u helpm e m8
[11:51] <Administrator> how to make vlc play from beginning once the currently playing file gets timed out?
[11:52] <Administrator>  how to make video side smaller in full screen like real player/ jet audio??
[11:52] <AdvoWork> Slart dont suppose you know where you saw that document for automating it? i cant for the life of me find it lol
[11:52] <SleepingSloth> Administrator, there are (shock horror) uses for which windoze is superior to ubuntu.... since ubuntu is a debian derivative, they're close enough that it's a matter of personal preference most of the time. i tried debian between 32 and 64 bit editions of ubuntu, and i came back to ubuntu for numerous (small) reasons.
[11:53] <Slart> AdvoWork: I'm pretty sure it was in the man page for sudo.. I think there is a switch that makes sudo read the password from a file
[11:54] <miguel_c> Anyone knows how to setup a twinview with different resolutions per monitor and no dead zone? <- Xinerama does it?
[11:54] <Administrator> thx 4 ur nice reply <SleepingSloth>
[11:54] <Pentarex> oh we got 1147 ppl and nowbody answering
[11:54] <AdvoWork> Slart found it :) http://www.justlinux.com/nhf/Filesystems/Mounting_smbfs_Shares_Permanently.html
[11:55] <Slart> AdvoWork: aha.. I thought you *had* to run that script for some reason.. you should have asked about mounting permanently from the start =)
[11:59] <Slart> pluffsy: ok.. got it.. what was the original problem again?
[11:59] <Slart> pluffsy: lines ending in either foo or bar, right?

[12:01] <AdvoWork> Slart which is where my problem lies. the server never reboots. Its the client machine(windows) thats rebootded daily, thats loosing the share, any ideas?
[12:01] <Slart> pluffsy: grep -e '\(foo\|bar\)$' filetosearch   or without the weirdness..  grep -e '(foo|bar)$' filetosearch..  but you have to escape ()|
[12:02] <AdvoWork> i could perhaps do a cron job to run that every single day at say 2am ?
[12:02] <Slart> AdvoWork: you put that in the client machine.. not the server
[12:02] <AdvoWork> but how can i if its windows?
[12:02] <sky_> whats +J do?
[12:03] <Slart> AdvoWork: oh.. you'll have to ask the windows people about that
