[12:23] <Raskall> TheCount: but as long as I get the web servers and mailserver up, I guess I'll have time to do the rest later
[12:23] <wickedpuppy> chrisx1, always sudo apt-get install wine ... if its installed it will tell you
[12:23] <chrisx1> am doin
[12:23] <AlexRM> Allo
[12:23] <AlexRM> You know for Windows there are several programs to Minimize Thunderbird to the system tray
[12:23] <AlexRM> Is there one for Linux?
[12:24] <wickedpuppy> programs to minimise another program ?
[12:24] <wickedpuppy> why ? i never have to minimise programs in ubuntu .. i just move to another virtual desktop
[12:24] <TheCount> hello - I went from Debian to Ubuntu, thus changed from XFree86 to Xorg .. Now my modeline for my SGI 1600W connected to the DVI-out of a Matrox G550 via a PIX-Link adapter doesn't seem to give the same output, and I don't get any picture anymore .. any ideas what to do?
[12:24] <AlexRM> Yeh, cos Thunderbird by it's self wont minimize to the system tray,
[12:24] <AlexRM> wickedpuppy, I don't use them
[12:24] <TheCount> The logs look like the correct modeline was choosen etc, but the PIX-Link insist on 'Out of range', i.e. it is unable to sync on the DVI signal. Windows doesn't have any problems whatsoever, XFree86 didn't have any either.
[12:24] <chrisx1> wickedpuppy, Package wine is not available, but is referred to by another package.
[12:24] <chrisx1> This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or
[12:24] <chrisx1> is only available from another source
[12:24] <chrisx1> E: Package wine has no installation candidate
[12:25] <Raskall> TheCount: it seems my self compiled stuff actually is in the breezy repos. goody.
[12:25] <mp3guy> chrisx1, what program do you want to run on linux?
[12:25] <TheCount> (yes, I'm repeating myself, but this is MY actual problem)
[12:25] <chrisx1> radmin
[12:25] <mp3guy> chrisx1, what is that?
[12:25] <chrisx1> t oconnect to a windows pc without VNC
[12:25] <chrisx1> *to
[12:25] <chrisx1> remote administration program
[12:25] <TheCount> chrisx1: use rdesktop for that
[12:25] <mp3guy> chrisx1, i'm very sure there is some linux alternatives, i recommend chacking them out, its alot easier than getting networking and stuff working wine
[12:26] <TheCount> (unless I'm mistaking tools here)
[12:26] <yo2lux> hi
[12:26] <wickedpuppy> chrisx1, you got to enable universe and multiverse ..and yes as mp3guy suggested check out the alrenatives
[12:26] <jareth_> what kernel option do I need to enable for framebuffer support/vrtual terminals?
[12:27] <mp3guy> speaking of alternatives, are there any good video editors? Like to the caliber of windows movie maker 2 or arcsoft showbiz 2?
[12:27] <gi2k15> People, Qtparted is crashing when I select hda. What's wrong? I'm running this on LiveCD
[12:27] <yo2lux> i have two HDD in pc. The primary HDD is 80GB with windows xp, i want to install ubuntu on secondary drive that have 40GB, is possible ? i don't want to lose files from primary drive
[12:27] <chrisx1> to use rdesktop
[12:27] <AlexRM> So is there a Minimize to system tray for Thunderbird for Linux?
[12:27] <jareth_> mp3guy: look at kino
[12:27] <chrisx1> what server does i need to run on windows?
[12:28] <Talisker> err hi, I need to install a package to have support for QT
[12:28] <Talisker> but there are dozens of QT packages in the cache
[12:28] <Talisker> which one do I need?
[12:28] <Renfr> Hello, folks. I'm looking for a long-suffering soul who looks kindly on newbies, for a DCC
[12:28] <mp3guy> jareth_ kino can't open anything
[12:29] <Talisker> i can do that
[12:29] <wickedpuppy> Renfr, just ask here
[12:29] <Talisker> but you might as well ask here
[12:29] <chrisx1> TheCount, what server do i need to run on widows pc to use rdesktop?
[12:29] <gi2k15> Talisker, isn't there a metapack for QT at synaptic?
[12:29] <jareth_> mp3guy: because?
[12:29] <TheCount> Renfr: sorry, I don't do suffering
[12:29] <AlexRM> So is there a Minimize to system tray for Thunderbird for Linux?
[12:29] <TheCount> chrisx1: the default terminal server
[12:29] <chrisx1> no
[12:29] <chrisx1> i mean like
[12:29] <chrisx1> what does windows need to run
[12:29] <Kejk_PL> Talisker: libqt3-mt
[12:29] <Talisker> I'm using apt-cache, and there are dozens of them
[12:29] <Talisker> thanks
[12:29] <chrisx1> VNC?
[12:29] <mp3guy> jareth_, it can't open mpeg4, xvid, asf, anything
[12:30] <freenik> hello
[12:30] <TheCount> yo2lux: no problem whatsoever.
[12:30] <gi2k15> People, Qtparted is crashing when I select hda. What's wrong? I'm running this on LiveCD
[12:30] <TheCount> chrisx1: no, the one that comes with windows.
[12:30] <chrisx1> oo
[12:30] <chrisx1> k
[12:30] <yo2lux> TheCount ubuntu install the boot manager when my primary partition is big?
[12:30] <TheCount> chrisx1: if you'd want to use VNC, you'd have to use VNC. sure.
[12:30] <libben> how can i check my cpu temperature? I cant do cat /proc/acpi/thermal_zone or acpi -V and so on.. lsmod | grep therm does show me it exists sorta i think.... my thermal_zone folder is empty... how can i check my cpu temperature? its an p4 1.7 ghz. i can see temp in bio and in windows. but not in linux
[12:30] <jareth_> mp3guy: i see.. any needed plug-ins?
[12:30] <Renfr> OK, thanks. I just downloaded the "live" iso. At boot (CD boot enabled), the machine putters for a LONG time, then starts Windows, and tells me that is has trapped a "serious error". What's am I doing wrong?
[12:30] <TheCount> yo2lux: parse error ;)
[12:30] <aeoth> meep.
[12:30] <Talisker> meep
[12:31] <TheCount> yo2lux: ubuntu will install the bootloader on the primary harddisk without changing anything else
[12:31] <yo2lux> thanks!
[12:31] <Talisker> Renfr, my best guess is that the CD is broken
[12:31] <TheCount> Renfr: same here
[12:31] <Talisker> try downloading and burning it again
[12:31] <Talisker> I once had a similar problem
[12:31] <mp3guy> jareth_, no, can't find any
[12:32] <Renfr> Download again? Burn again? Does a CDRW work?
[12:32] <aeoth> heh, anybody willing to give me a hand? installed ubuntu yesterday, nice and fun. Decided to take out my cd drive to save that tiny bit of extra power. Shut down, restarted, one of my nics is 'offline'. ubuntu's networking thing (+ ifconfig -a) doesn't detect it at all..
[12:32] <AlexRM> Please guys! is there a Minimize to system tray for Thunderbird for Linux?
[12:32] <Talisker> after much fscking around it became appearent to me that the problem probably sourced at the fact that I only had half of the image file
[12:32] <gi2k15> Renfr, yes
[12:32] <SockerFot> ASHGLASDFDS
[12:32] <SockerFot> im going crazy
[12:32] <SockerFot> video is still not working
[12:32] <Renfr> OK, thanks all! Bye...
[12:32] <Talisker> so am I
[12:32] <aeoth> http://www.aeoth.net/screenshot.png <-- it 'detects' both NIC's...
[12:32] <SockerFot> mp3guy, are you there?
[12:32] <TheCount> Renfr: check the md5sum, burn again. cdrw should work.
[12:32] <Talisker> Ubuntu is a poor host for LFS
[12:33] <SockerFot> or wickedpuppy ?
[12:33] <gi2k15> AlexRM , try looking for an extension that does it, or go through the config
[12:33] <wickedpuppy> SockerFot, just ask ?
[12:33] <mp3guy> SocketFot, yes
[12:33] <AlexRM> gi2k15, I have tried an extension...but it was only for Windows
[12:33] <SockerFot> wickedpuppy, video's  still not working
[12:34] <gi2k15> AlexRM, Have you checked the program's config?
[12:34] <SockerFot> wickedpuppy and mp3guy this is the video http://www.danerd.com/Show.php?vid=1321 and when i open it, it just says "no picture"
[12:34] <AlexRM> gi2k15, what do you mean?
[12:34] <gi2k15> See if there's something there that will enable the system tray
[12:34] <Talisker> for instance, I need to download 55 MB worth of packages just to access the kernel make xconf interface
[12:34] <gi2k15> But I'm not sure if there is any
[12:35] <gi2k15> I just use webmail =)
[12:35] <wickedpuppy> SockerFot, hold on .. i am going to that side
[12:35] <AlexRM> gi2k15, thers not an option in thunderbird to do it by it's self. thats why you need a program to do it for you,
[12:35] <wickedpuppy> SockerFot, no picture for me too
[12:35] <wickedpuppy> :P
[12:35] <SockerFot> ok, weird
[12:36] <SockerFot> because it worked in windows
[12:36] <TheCount> no, proprietary
[12:36] <AlexRM> I got one! Kdocker!
[12:36] <linux_newb> o w00t i got it working
[12:36] <linux_newb> :P
[12:37] <TheCount> congrats ;)
[12:37] <linux_newb> lol ty
[12:37] <AlexRM> Gah! Kdocker isn't in Synaptic
[12:37] <gi2k15> http://kdocker.sourceforge.net/
[12:38] <AlexRM> oh good! now I gotta complie it
[12:38] <gi2k15> There's a deb package there
[12:38] <gi2k15> Should work on Ubuntu
[12:38] <TheCount> "why do users whine? because they can!"
[12:39] <AlexRM> gi2k15, There is also a KUbuntu resporit
[12:39] <AlexRM> shall I add that?
[12:39] <libben> how can i check my cpu temperature? I cant do cat /proc/acpi/thermal_zone or acpi -V and so on.. lsmod | grep therm does show me it exists sorta i think.... my thermal_zone folder is empty... how can i check my cpu temperature? its an p4 1.7 ghz. i can see temp in bio and in windows. but not in linux
[12:39] <gi2k15> AlexRM, I don't know if it's gonna work =(
[12:39] <TheCount> libben: go for lm-sensors
[12:39] <gi2k15> Well, try it
[12:40] <AlexRM> gi2k15, would it be safer to use the .deb file?
[12:40] <AlexRM> and use dkpg ?
[12:40] <libben> TheCount: i allready have that installed
[12:40] <libben> then what
[12:40] <gi2k15> I think. But don't worry, anything will explode :P
[12:40] <aeoth> Rah :/
[12:41] <TheCount> libben: have a look at the documentation? ;)
[12:41] <gi2k15> Linux let you do mistakes
[12:41] <AlexRM> gi2k15, suppose .. i'll try the ubuntu one
[12:41] <gi2k15> AlexRM, try it and then tell us here
[12:42] <AlexRM> they don't work .. oh well bed it is
[12:42] <AlexRM> W: Couldn't stat source package list http://dinton.no-ip.org kubuntu/main Packages (/var/lib/apt/lists/dinton.no-ip.org_dists_kubuntu_main_binary-amd64_Packages) - stat (2 No such file or directory)

[12:43] <thierry_> hi all
[12:43] <mantiena> hi
[12:45] <thierry_> I modified my xorg.conf. Basically two modes "1280x1024@60" "1024x768@60". On ubuntu, gdm is 1280, xfce is 1280, but gnome stays at 1024. Any idea ?
[12:45] <AlexRM> noooo! it's not 64 bit!
[12:45] <AlexRM> just my luck :(
[12:45] <einPaule> Hello everyone, Ive got a problem with evolution, it wont show the e-mails in the imap account, I can see what is in the sent folder, but inbox and trash dont show anything
[12:46] <owner989> thierry sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[12:46] <owner989> run that
[12:46] <testmach1ne> einPaule: then you account settings are wrong :)
[12:46] <thierry_> owner989. Yes i've just did it....
[12:46] <owner989> what video card do you have
[12:46] <owner989> ?
[12:46] <testmach1ne> einPaule: or your account doesnt have imap support?
[12:46] <TheCount> or the imap account is empty ;)
[12:47] <thierry_> very basic 'Sis' some thing i ppresume
[12:47] <owner989> are you using the vesa driver?
[12:47] <thierry_> my worry is why xfce is able to go up to 1280, but gnome can not...
[12:47] <einPaule> testmach1ne, TheCount: The folders are not empty, Im 99 % sure the logins are correct, but before I make a total fool of my self Ill double check
[12:48] <ubuntu> woohooo
[12:48] <einPaule> I can see whats in the folders using kontact
[12:48] <yikes> x11 or xv better in video?
[12:49] <thierry_> owner989: where can i check this ? no 'vesa' keyword in my xorg.conf
[12:49] <SockerFot> wickedpuppy, still doesent work :(
[12:49] <testmach1ne> thierry_: Section "Device"
[12:50] <einPaule> testmach1ne: It shows me that I have 7 new messages, but does not show them on the right hand side
[12:50] <thierry_> Driver "sis"
[12:50] <owner989> sounds like the right driver
[12:50] <owner989> for your card
[12:50] <thierry_> should I change it to vesa (from sis) ?
[12:50] <testmach1ne> hmmm thats weird :/
[12:51] <testmach1ne> einPaule
[12:51] <owner989> if its working i wouldnt
[12:51] <thierry_> owner989: ok i do not change this
[12:51] <owner989> but
[12:51] <owner989> if you do sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[12:51] <[den] > I want to get in American chat. Prompt the American server, please...
[12:51] <owner989> you can select a higher resolution in the setup
[12:51] <owner989> like 1280x1024
[12:52] <einPaule> is there a channel for evolution specifically?
[12:52] <TheCount> THE american server.
[12:53] <thierry_> owner: yes ! but, I did it. the gdm shows in 1280 (so it works), and when I use xfce it statys at 1280, but from gdm, if i use gnome it goes back to 1024 !
[12:53] <testmach1ne> einPaule: you could try #evolution
[12:53] <testmach1ne> einPaule: but i dont know if it exists
[12:55] <einPaule> testmach1ne: Id be all by myself!
[12:55] <einPaule> ;-)
[12:55] <testmach1ne> hehe
[12:55] <testmach1ne> i am not an evolution expert myself
[12:56] <SockerFot> DAMEN HELL
[12:56] <SockerFot> how do i get videos to work in FUCKING SHIT ubuntu HELL
[12:56] <owner989> lol
[12:56] <BeGu> :)
[12:57] <owner989> if only he had asked nicely
[12:57] <mustard5> :)
[12:57] <SockerFot> ok im sorry
[12:57] <owner989> socketfot lol
[12:57] <SockerFot> but i really domt understand
[12:58] <owner989> sockerfot get http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=64629&highlight=ati+driver
[12:58] <SockerFot> ok thanks
[12:58] <[Chaos|Krieger] > .. :/
[12:58] <owner989> easyubuntu installs codecs for you
[12:58] <SockerFot> owner989, the thing is that ive installed lots of stuff, w32 and so on
[12:58] <thierry_> I try to ask it again nicely : gdm starts in 1280 (so it works), and when I use xfce it stays at 1280. But from gdm, if i use gnome it goes back to 1024 ! Any idea?
[12:58] <Seveas> owner989, and it wrecks your system too
[12:58] <owner989> seveas, i thought you only hate automatix
[12:59] <Seveas> makes no difference
[12:59] <Seveas> it's just as crappy
[12:59] <SockerFot> Seveas, it does? i dont want to install anything that wrecks my system
[12:59] <owner989> i used it
[12:59] <SockerFot> doesent sound nice, what should i do then?
[12:59] <Seveas> SockerFot, what was the problem again?
[12:59] <owner989> i think only the old easyubuntus caused problems
[12:59] <owner989> the new one works without a prob
[01:00] <SockerFot> Seveas, ive installed lots of codecs, vlc player and bla bla bla. but videos still dont work. when i open them on firefox, it says (no picture), and when i download and open them with various programmes, i can only hear the sound
[01:00] <SockerFot> there must be some kind of codec missing
[01:00] <freenik> hello, actually i cant decide between kde und gnome...if i install ubuntu and then apt-get kde, will I have "same" kde like in kubuntu?
[01:00] <Seveas> SockerFot, did you install w32codecs?
[01:00] <owner989> or it could be your video card
[01:00] <SockerFot> Seveas, yepp
[01:00] <owner989> can you play games
[01:00] <Seveas> owner989, it does stuff that I wouldn't do if I were drunk
[01:00] <SockerFot> yes, and i can watch the videos in Windoes
[01:00] <SockerFot> windows
[01:00] <SockerFot> but no go in ubuntu. i installed ubuntu yesterday.
[01:00] <Seveas> SockerFot, and did you install mplayer?
[01:01] <SockerFot> Seveas, hmm yeah i think so. gonna search for it in synaptic. there was one thing though. i followed a wikiguide that told me to do something in mozilla, create som pluginmap and enter some terminal codes. the problem was that i cant locate my mozilla map so i dont know where to enter these things
[01:01] <owner989> socker did you run sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[01:01] <SockerFot> owner989, nope, whats that?
[01:02] <Seveas> owner989, that is bullshit
[01:02] <Seveas> you don't need that for codecs
[01:02] <owner989> seveas if he has no x acceleration he wont have any video
[01:02] <Seveas> SockerFot, that was for viewing things in the browser
[01:02] <owner989> thats a possibility
[01:02] <thierry_> i beleive too that "sudo dpkg-reconfigure" does not help too much...
[01:02] <Seveas> owner989, try this in the terminal: mplayer filename_of_your_video
[01:03] <Seveas> ehm
[01:03] <Seveas> SockerFot, try this in the terminal: mplayer filename_of_your_video
[01:03] <thierry_> seveas: yes good idea; i solved problem like that
[01:03] <chrisx1> how do i un zip a zipfile in terminal?
[01:03] <Seveas> christel, unzip filename.zip
[01:03] <Seveas> :)
[01:03] <Seveas> chrisx1*
[01:03] <SockerFot> Seveas, i have some uninstalled packages when i seard for mplayer but when i try to mark them it says that it is "mplayer-586  men 1:1.0-pre7cvs20050716-0.1ubuntu9"
[01:03] <kbrooks> :p
[01:03] <kbrooks> :P
[01:03] <owner989> its working seveas
[01:03] <SockerFot> Seveas, its in some kind of conflict with another package
[01:04] <Seveas> owner989, yeah it was meant for SockerFot :)
[01:04] <owner989> lol
[01:04] <chrisx1> Seveas, ta, how do i make another command do something straight after?
[01:04] <owner989> i like the output
[01:04] <Seveas> SockerFot, 'mplayer' does not exist as package, mplayer-586 is good
[01:04] <SockerFot> and i find that in synaptif?
[01:04] <Seveas> chriswk, unzip foo.zip && som_other_command
[01:04] <Seveas> SockerFot, yes
[01:05] <SockerFot> okay, now its downloaded and installed
[01:05] <SockerFot> what to do now? should videos work now
[01:05] <owner989> sockerfot what video card do you have
[01:05] <Seveas> SockerFot, try this in the terminal: mplayer filename_of_your_video
[01:05] <SockerFot> owner989, GeForce FX 5200 something something
[01:06] <Seveas> SockerFot, on a sidenote: did you already enable the nvidia drivers?
[01:06] <chrisx1> how do i get wget to save to a folder?
[01:06] <SockerFot> Seveas, i dont know how to do that :D
[01:06] <doktoreas> :O
[01:06] <Seveas> chrisx1, man wget :)
[01:06] <chrisx1> lol
[01:06] <chrisx1> k
[01:06] <chrisx1> ty
[01:07] <Seveas> !tell SockerFot about nvidia
[01:07] <Seveas> SockerFot, ubotu gave you a hint
[01:07] <Stork> how can i stop my ircd from running?
[01:07] <doktoreas> alexzndr: ;)
[01:07] <Seveas> Stork, pkill -9 name_of_ircd
[01:08] <Stork> Seveas, didn't work
[01:08] <doktoreas> hi guys
[01:09] <doktoreas> i have installed ubuntu on my laptop... the configuring found both the wired nd the wireless card
[01:09] <doktoreas> the matter is that the wired can ping itself, but if i try with another pc on the lan
[01:09] <doktoreas> i got host unrechable
[01:10] <Seveas> doktoreas, sudo mii-diag eth0 (if eth0 is the wired)
[01:10] <Seveas> dies that say 'You have link beat'?
[01:10] <Seveas> does*
[01:10] <doktoreas> just a sec Seveas
[01:10] <doktoreas> thx for your answer
[01:11] <SockerFot> Seveas, it wont give me any results when i search for "linux-resricted-modules"
[01:11] <Seveas> resTricted
[01:11] <Seveas> SockerFot, so you have an intel or amd cpu?
[01:11] <mustard5> SockerFot, you missed the T
[01:12] <SockerFot> mustard5, :D
[01:12] <unimatrix9> hello there
[01:12] <SockerFot> Seveas, i thinks its AMD. i got i686 or whatever its called
[01:13] <unimatrix9> i have mounted /dev/hda1
[01:13] <Seveas> SockerFot, install the linux-k7 metapackage (that's optimized for AMD and includes the restricted modules) and reboot into that kernel
[01:13] <unimatrix9> how can i get acces for all users? on the bash
[01:13] <Seveas> unimatrix9, is it a windows drive or a linux drive?
[01:13] <unimatrix9> ntfs
[01:13] <N6REJ> morning Seveas
[01:13] <unimatrix9> hda1
[01:13] <Seveas> unimatrix9, then unmount it again and add -o umask=0000 to the mount command
[01:14] <Seveas> morning N6REJ
[01:14] <SockerFot> Seveas, will that fix it so i can watch movies?
[01:14] <Seveas> SockerFot, it's part of the fix
[01:14] <Seveas> SockerFot, you're being bitten by 2 nastyness-es:
[01:14] <SockerFot> is linux-k7 another kernel?
[01:14] <Seveas> 1) Nvidia cards only work with the closed source drivers which cannot be supported for 100% and thus are not enabled by default
[01:15] <mz2> i wonder if there's anything i could do to make my usb hard drive get recognised by gnome-volume-manager again, like it used to be in breezy
[01:15] <enkrav> Hello, how can I choose the windowmanager from a   console doing  startx ?
[01:15] <Seveas> 2) Media playback is a patent encumbered field which makes it difficult to support and impossible to enable by default
[01:15] <unimatrix9> ok so it would be mount -t ntfs -0 umask=0000 /dev/hda1 ?
[01:15] <holycow> mz2, your running dapper?
[01:15] <mirak> I have noticed that with the proprietary drivers, GDM won't start if the screen is not turned when the computer boots.
[01:15] <Seveas> unimatrix9, no
[01:15] <Seveas> -o not -0
[01:15] <N6REJ> Seveas: for a Nvidia FX 5200 AGP do know which kernel?
[01:16] <mz2> holycow: yes
[01:16] <holycow> mz2, well then, either grab a compiler and vim and fix the course ... or wait :)
[01:16] <Seveas> mz2, wait for keybuk to make his new world order complete
[01:16] <N6REJ> enkrav: there is a button called "session" use that.
[01:16] <holycow> course = source
[01:16] <holycow> heh
[01:17] <Seveas> bbl - breeakfast time
[01:17] <mz2> i guess i could always just write some sick piece of python to treat this case specifically through hal (because i know where i want it mounted and i know it's model and so on :)
[01:17] <SockerFot> Seveas, ok now ive downloaded
[01:17] <enkrav> N6REJ,  I installed TWM but it didn't appear on the session thing
[01:17] <SockerFot> time to reboot?
[01:17] <mz2> that would be fun actually
[01:17] <N6REJ> enkrav: go to system > preferences and choose it as your default :D
[01:19] <unimatrix9> /home/ubuntu# mount -t ntfs -o umask=0000 /dev/hda1 /mnt/hda1
[01:19] <unimatrix9> yes?
[01:19] <holycow> mz2, attaboy!
[01:19] <holycow> lol :)
[01:19] <holycow> well now that the redhat directory server has been released ...
[01:19] <holycow> ... i guess it's time to start thinking about directory integration
[01:19] <holycow> we need deep gnome lockdown and directory integration features
[01:19] <enkrav> N6REJ, I cannot find where... System->prefs...???
[01:20] <SockerFot> okay
[01:20] <SockerFot> now ive installed the k7-kernel
[01:20] <SockerFot> but still no video
[01:21] <unimatrix9> for video you need codecs, or not?
[01:21] <unimatrix9> and mplayer...
[01:21] <unimatrix9> or the likes
[01:22] <Talisker> SockerFot, what format are you trying to play?
[01:22] <Talisker> Did you visit the restricted formats page?
[01:22] <derek[] > Setting up mplayer-586 (1.0-pre6-0.3ubuntu6.1) ...
[01:22] <derek[] > Errors were encountered while processing:
[01:22] <derek[] >  msttcorefonts
[01:22] <derek[] > E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)
[01:22] <derek[] > -- Any idea why?
[01:22] <chrisx1> is there any ftp client installed in breezy?
[01:23] <SockerFot> Talisker, yes i did. im trying to play wmv. and YES i installed w32codecs.
[01:23] <Talisker> err...
[01:23] <Talisker> WMV's don't really play on linux
[01:23] <Talisker> there's a new format
[01:23] <mustard5> christel, not by default
[01:23] <SockerFot> not at all??
[01:23] <kbrooks> chrisx1, no. gftp is a good one
[01:23] <djk_> Talisker: what?
[01:23] <Talisker> but there's a package for smil
[01:23] <Talisker> not all
[01:23] <Talisker> only some of the newer ones
[01:23] <djk_> Talisker: since when do wmv's not play?
[01:23] <SockerFot> ok Talisker, can you send me a video, like mpeg format, or avi format or something and see if i can play it?
[01:24] <Talisker> djk_, only some of the newer one
[01:24] <SockerFot> aah hello djk :D
[01:24] <Talisker> SockerFot, download a small one at the local pr0n mirror
[01:24] <SockerFot> haha
[01:24] <djk_> Talisker: okay, can you give me link to a linux site stating that please?
[01:24] <djk_> SockerFot: hi
[01:25] <SockerFot> djk_, as you may see, i have problems running movies
[01:26] <djk_> SockerFot: afaik, mplayer plays wmvs..
[01:26] <cyphase_> Why would the nVidia driver be crashing my X server?
[01:26] <cyphase_> after about 15-25 minutes
[01:26] <dabaR> djk_: only if you have w32 codecs instgalled. or compile with right libs.
[01:26] <djk_> dabaR: that's a given
[01:26] <SockerFot> djk_, already installed mplayer but nothing seems to work
[01:27] <mustard5> cyphase_, what leads you to believe its the nvidia driver?
[01:27] <cyphase_> mustard5, because it wasn't doing it before i installed the nVidia driver
[01:27] <djk_> dabaR: but vlc doesn't seem to play wmvs though..
[01:27] <mustard5> cyphase_, what version of the driver are you using?
[01:27] <cyphase_> the one that comes with breezy
[01:27] <cyphase_> lemme see..
[01:28] <mustard5> cyphase_, k..nvidia-glx package
[01:28] <mustard5> cyphase_, what card are you using?
[01:28] <dabaR> dunno, I know you need the w32codecs- win 32 codecs for wmvs - windows media video.
[01:28] <cyphase_> i know
[01:28] <cyphase_> uhh..
[01:28] <cyphase_> 1 sec
[01:29] <SockerFot> hmm, now i am installing mplayer-k7, is that the one i should install?
[01:29] <jenda> SockerFot: what processor do you have?
[01:29] <mustard5> SockerFot, for k7 kernel yes
[01:29] <einPaule> damn, I cant see the messages on the imap server, even though evolution shows that there are 320 messages (7 unread), and i can create new folders
[01:29] <cyphase_> mustard5, GForce4 MX 440 AGP 8x
[01:29] <dabaR> SockerFot: ty0pe uname -r in a terminal
[01:29] <SockerFot> i have the k7-kernel
[01:29] <cyphase_> mustard5, i'm using the k7 kernel
[01:29] <cyphase_> could that be it?
[01:29] <cyphase_> i doubt it..
[01:29] <SockerFot> dabaR, 2.6.12-10-k7
[01:30] <jenda> SockerFot: Then it's the one you want
[01:30] <SockerFot> but videos still arent working
[01:30] <jenda> SockerFot: Do you have the codecs?
[01:30] <dabaR> ubotu: tell SockerFot about w32codecs
[01:30] <SockerFot> yes i fucking have w32
[01:30] <jenda> cool it
[01:30] <djk_> !language
[01:30] <ubotu> djk_: I don't know, could you explain it?
[01:30] <djk_> meh..
[01:30] <TheCount> SockerFot: would you please watch your language? bugs me the whole time.
[01:31] <linux_newb> ok I'm new to this linux stuff and i've just installed ubuntu, i want to conenct to the internet via crossover cable through a windoze box
[01:31] <SockerFot> TheCount, okay im so sorry
[01:31] <linux_newb> is this possible and how would i do it
[01:31] <jenda> SockerFot: What files are you having trouble playing?
[01:31] <mustard5> cyphase_, I'm just trying to think what it might be
[01:31] <shreevatsa> xdvi looks *bad* on Breezy. Can someone confirm this/help me?
[01:31] <SockerFot> jenda, .wmv
[01:31] <Hobbsee> !tell SockerFot about coc
[01:31] <Hobbsee> djk_: i think you were looking for !coc
[01:31] <djk_> coc..nice abbreviation :)
[01:31] <jenda> indeed
[01:32] <Hobbsee> hehe
[01:32] <mustard5> cyphase_, if you installed k7 kernel you would have installed the linux-restricted-modules for your kernel...as I doubt X would even start without them..so thats not the problem
[01:32] <Hobbsee> i didnt write it
[01:32] <Kamping_Kaiser> hi Hobbsee :)
[01:32] <Hobbsee> hey Kamping_Kaiser!
[01:32] <Kamping_Kaiser> :)
[01:32] <cyphase_> mustard5, it's installed
[01:32] <cyphase_> i made sure
[01:32] <dabaR> linux_newb: you will need to set up windows to share the connection.
[01:32] <shreevatsa> xdvi prints black text on a grey background... why?
[01:32] <mustard5> cyphase_, my first guess would be that it was flaky RAM sticks actually
[01:32] <linux_newb> ok i have done that, windoze shows an active connection now
[01:33] <mustard5> cyphase_, I would be running a memtest at startup using the option in grub menu and look for errors in your RAM
[01:33] <cyphase_> i have
[01:33] <cyphase_> none
[01:33] <Seveas> SockerFot, if those .wmv files are DRM protected you should give up
[01:33] <Seveas> that won't work on Linux
[01:33] <mustard5> cyphase_, have you checked you xorg logs at all?
[01:33] <SockerFot> ok how do i see if they are DRM Seveas?
[01:33] <jenda> Seveas: Really?
[01:34] <Seveas> jenda, yeah
[01:34] <dabaR> linux_newb: what do you mean it shows an active connection?
[01:34] <Seveas> SockerFot, boot into windows, fire up windows media player, load the file and look at its properties
[01:34] <doktoreas> Seveas: i got link status :previously broken, but now reestabilished
[01:34] <cyphase_> mustard5, no
[01:34] <cyphase_> not yet
[01:34] <jenda> Seveas: No better way to find out?
[01:34] <mustard5> cyphase_, that might be a good place to look for clues....because I have to say its a pretty unusual problem
[01:35] <SockerFot> Seveas, ah no ill skip that. but shouldnt the other files work now? ive installed mplayer-k7 and everything
[01:35] <djk_> Seveas: could one do that via wine as well?
[01:35] <linux_newb> i mean windoze shows an active LAN connection now, but i'm not sure what to do next, the ubuntu wont connect to anything
[01:35] <Seveas> SockerFot, they should if you also enabled the nvidia driver
[01:35] <goonie> Can anyone help out a newb with a problem with wireless on a fresh 5.10 install?
[01:35] <Seveas> djk_, -ENOCLUE
[01:35] <dabaR> linux_newb: do you have 2 ethernet cards on the windows computer?
[01:35] <Seveas> !tell goonie about anyone
[01:35] <linux_newb> just the one
[01:35] <mustard5> cyphase_, do you think your card might be overheating?
[01:35] <SockerFot> Seveas, i think i did actually
[01:35] <linux_newb> i have dialup
[01:35] <cyphase_> i don't think so..
[01:36] <cyphase_> oh well
[01:36] <dabaR> linux_newb: you can surf with windows
[01:36] <goonie> point taken :)
[01:36] <cyphase_> i can manage without 3D until i get my new computer :)
[01:36] <mustard5> cyphase_, ok..its just that it sounds like a hardware issue
[01:36] <linux_newb> yeah...
[01:36] <dabaR> linux_newb: can you ping between the two boxes?
[01:36] <cyphase_> custom built, 100% fully linux compatible
[01:36] <cyphase_> :)
[01:37] <mustard5> cyphase_, thats ok..but I'm saying it looks like a hardware failure at first glance...I could be wrong
[01:37] <cyphase_> where are the X logs again..?
[01:37] <mustard5> cyphase_, /var/log
[01:37] <linux_newb> please excuse my newbness... how do i find the ip of the ubuntu box
[01:37] <dabaR> linux_newb: ifconfig
[01:38] <SockerFot> Seveas, well, the videos in google video seems to work.
[01:38] <goonie> I installed 5.10 a few hours ago (dual boot) and so far so good... except wireless won't work. lspci recognizes the card and ifconfig sees it as eth1 but I'm not getting an IP from the DHCP. I've double checked the wep and the essid
[01:38] <SockerFot> but i think thats Java
[01:40] <dbzdeath> hey how can i get sound in firefox?
[01:40] <cyphase_> mustard5, i see nothing out of the ordinary
[01:41] <mustard5> cyphase_, hmm mystifying
[01:41] <cyphase_> yea..
[01:41] <cyphase_> it's ok
[01:42] <zzyber> Hi, i have a printer Epson Stylus DX4250 and i cant find a driver for it. What can i do?
[01:42] <mustard5> cyphase_, did you see the nvidia logo come up when you restarted X?
[01:42] <cyphase_> mustard5, no, becaus ei disabled it
[01:42] <mwe> zzyber: check out linuxprinting.org
[01:42] <cyphase_> because i*
[01:42] <mustard5> cyphase_, ah ok
[01:43] <lyric> hi
[01:43] <cion> hey all, is ATI RADEON 9600PRo well supported on ubuntu?
[01:43] <zzyber> mwe, thx
[01:43] <mwe> cion: yes
[01:43] <SockerFot> Seveas, ok, now most of the videos seem to work but still some doesent. thanks! :)
[01:43] <mustard5> cyphase_, well you could run it with VESA drivers and see if it still occurs..that would discount the nvidia drivers being the problem perhaps
[01:43] <cion> hey mwe :) so i install drivers w synaptic?
[01:44] <mwe> !ati
[01:44] <ubotu> [ati]  at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BinaryDriverHowto/ATI or http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=24557&page=1&pp=10
[01:44] <mwe> cion: look at that
[01:44] <zzyber> mwe, hm it wasnt there.......
[01:44] <b_e_n_z> i have a dvd writer but ubuntu doesn't think it can write dvd's...
[01:44] <b_e_n_z> [4294673.577000]  hdc: DVD+RW RW5240, ATAPI CD/DVD-ROM drive
[01:44] <cion> mwe:ok thx
[01:44] <dabaR> dbzdeath: Its a web browser. What page has no sound?
[01:45] <mwe> zzyber: bad luck then, it seems. google, if that doesn't help either, buy another printer
[01:45] <holycow> http://zero-install.sourceforge.net/index.html  <-- okay now this is bloody cool
[01:45] <slashx1896> HEY
[01:45] <slashx1896> anyone here not sleaping? lol
[01:45] <AlexRM> Hey
[01:45] <AlexRM> is there Flash for Ubuntu 64bit?
[01:45] <slashx1896> i dunno
[01:46] <linux_newb> dabar, sorry im taking so long (total noob) but yes i can ping between both machines
[01:46] <Kamping_Kaiser> no IIRC
[01:46] <testmach1ne> me neither
[01:46] <mustard5> Alex, I don't think so
[01:46] <saki> benz - You might look at /etc/fstab and change the permission to rw for that mountpoint.
[01:46] <mwe> AlexRM: no. macromedia hasn't made it availble for amd64 afaik
[01:46] <dabaR> linux_newb: no worries, I was making soup anyhow:)
[01:46] <slashx1896> i need to install a java plug in but it wont let me?
[01:46] <AlexRM> mwe, :( when will it be?
[01:46] <Hobbsee> !tell slashx1896 about javadeb
[01:46] <lyric> Well, I am lowering version 5.10 and I wanted to know if I need to create a partition for the operational system

[01:46] <Hobbsee> !tell slashx1896 about java
[01:47] <dabaR> linux_newb: did you enable connectiopn sharing on your windows?
[01:47] <linux_newb> yes
[01:47] <Hobbsee> joshua: you can get flash on linux, without crossover office...it's shockwave that you'll have trouble with
[01:47] <linux_newb> oooh i can ping google
[01:47] <slashx1896> i need to download java runtime envoriment
[01:47] <Hobbsee> slashx1896: see your PM's
[01:47] <linux_newb> i couldnt load it in firefox though
[01:47] <slashx1896> Hobbsee: is that for java runtime evniorment?
[01:47] <Hobbsee> slashx1896: yes
[01:47] <lyric> Well, I am lowering version 5.10 and I wanted to know if I need to create a partition for the operational system... ???
[01:47] <slashx1896> k
[01:48] <mwe> AlexRM: I have no idea. there is a workaround, setting up a chroot environment and running firefox 32bit from that to get it working. I don't have the URL handy though. sorry
[01:48] <slashx1896> the 2nd or firsT?
[01:48] <slashx1896> or both
[01:48] <dabaR> linux_newb: you can ping google in ubuntu?
[01:48] <joshua> hobbsee: is it the plugin your talking about, or the IDE for flash?

[01:48] <Hobbsee> joshua: um...the plugin works, and i think there's a non-free version of flash, if you check in apt-cache
[01:49] <linux_newb> dabar: yes
[01:49] <Hobbsee> !tell lyric about anyone
[01:49] <slashx1896> mustard5
[01:49] <lyric> Well, I am lowering version 5.10 and I wanted to know if I need to create a partition for the operational system... ?

[01:50] <linux_newb> i can get on irc:P
[01:50] <dabaR> lyric: you will need a partition to install ubuntu onto, yes. Or you can use the installer to resize the partition you have, but then part of it needs to be empty.
[01:50] <slashx1896> i dont se that
[01:50] <mustard5> slashx1896, jre  = java runtime environment....1.5 is the latest
[01:50] <lyric> I need to create a partition in my computer, or ubuntu makes this?
[01:50] <Hobbsee> lyric: the installer will do it if you tell it to
[01:50] <mustard5> slashx1896, its there....I can see it :)
[01:51] <slashx1896> mustard5: http://www.giannaros.org/public/breezydebs/ there?
[01:51] <dabaR> linux_newb: you can try flushing your firewall rules. sudo iptables --flush

[01:51] <goonie> I installed 5.10 a few hours ago (dual boot) and so far so good... except wireless won't work. lspci recognizes the card and ifconfig sees it as eth1 but I'm not getting an IP from the DHCP. I've double checked the wep and the essid. Any ideas why it's not working?

[01:52] <slashx1896> o lol
[01:52] <slashx1896> ok
[01:52] <dabaR> linux_newb: good work
[01:53] <dabaR> lyric: the easiest thing to do would be to erase all the files on your hard disk that you do not need, and during the install choose to resize your hard disk.
[01:53] <dabaR> lyric: how big is your HD?
[01:53] <slashx1896> mustard5: do i isntall through synaptic?
[01:53] <mustard5> slashx1896, you will install it using dpkg command

[01:55] <joshua> does anyone know a thing or 2 about wacom tablets?
[01:55] <holycow> Alex_BO, that has nothing to do with ubuntu ... its a feature of bittorrent.  basically you have more leeches than seeders
[01:55] <goonie> is there a special howto or a forum that deals with wireless on ubuntu?
[01:55] <Hobbsee> !wireless
[01:55] <ubotu> I guess wireless is https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupportComponentsWirelessNetworkCards
[01:55] <doktoreas> i have installed ubuntu on my laptop... the configuring found both the wired nd the wireless card
[01:55] <slashx1896> Ready
[01:55] <doktoreas> the matter is that the wired can ping itself, but if i try with another pc on the lan
[01:55] <doktoreas> i got host unrechable
[01:55] <mustard5> slashx1896, k open up a terminal
[01:55] <slashx1896> k
[01:56] <mustard5> slashx1896, is it in your HOME folder?
[01:56] <slashx1896> no

[01:56] <Raskall> hmm.. I am setting up NFS mounting over my 802.11b-wlan. The mount itself takes looooong time. I haven't tried I/O on the mounts yet, but guess that will hang to. What are the best options to have for nfs over wlan?
[01:56] <slashx1896> wait is the file in my home folder or do i have the terminal set to home folder?

[01:57] <dabaR> lyric: you can then erase about 15GB worth of files, for an optimal install. That is if you do not feel like reinstalling windows. If you want, just back everything up on your HD, and reinstall.
[01:57] <slashx1896> k
[01:57] <barosl^win> any swedish here?
[01:57] <mustard5> when you have the terminal set up to the correct working directory use  sudo dpkg -i fullpackagename.deb
[01:57] <dabaR> mp3guy: well, it seems you have a 64 bit processor.

[02:03] <mustard5> slashx1896, k if it still crashes on occasion you can do a sudo apt-get install epiphany-browser
[02:03] <Hobbsee> darklordfuzz: try saving it as .xls then :P

[02:03] <doktoreas> dabaR: wired one
[02:03] <dabaR> lyric: just read while installing, and choose to manually edit the partition table.
[02:04] <mustard5> dabaR, thanks
[02:04] <darklordfuzz> tried saving as .xls .. what do you mean by :p?
[02:04] <dabaR> doktoreas: OK, so, what does the LAN work on? a router?
[02:04] <linux_newb> ok i want to be able to access a secondary windows HDD from ubuntu, I have shared the drive on windows, where do i go in ubuntu to see the drive
[02:04] <Hobbsee> darklordfuzz: turn your head around sideways
[02:04] <kr4nker_h4nker> hi, i don't have sound with my emu10k1 sound card since i updated to breezy
[02:05] <kr4nker_h4nker> is that problem known?
[02:05] <darklordfuzz> lol!
[02:05] <dabaR> darklordfuzz: he means that is the excel file extension
[02:05] <lyric> dabaR Then after I choose the partition that I created, correct?
[02:05] <Hobbsee> darklordfuzz: otherwise, save it as a pdf, if it doesnt need editing
[02:05] <doktoreas> dabar: yeah router with <IP_ADDRESS>
[02:05] <mike_g> darkloardfuzz: File Menu: Save As: File Type; .xls
[02:05] <Myrtti> :-}
[02:05] <kr4nker_h4nker> hi, i don't have sound with my emu10k1 sound card since i updated to breezy
[02:06] <Hobbsee> !sound
[02:06] <ubotu> I guess sound is https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebuggingSoundProblems or http://wiki.ubuntu.com/SoundProblemsHoary
[02:06] <freemanen> then do the update dapper?
[02:06] <dabaR> lyric: yes, you would choose to install the / partition on the ext3. Remember, the / partition on that.
[02:06] <slashx1896> whats the diferece imbetween epiphany and firefox?
[02:06] <Myrtti> freemanen: lol
[02:06] <mustard5> linux_newb, are you talking about a drive on another machine?
[02:06] <linux_newb> yes mustard5
[02:06] <lyric> dabaR thx a lot :]
[02:06] <dabaR> doktoreas: that is the router IP address? do you have the ubuntu computer beside you? type ifconfig and tell us the IP address you have tghere.
[02:07] <lyric> dabaR one more thing... how do I get some program
[02:07] <mustard5> linux_newb, I would think you would use samba to do that
[02:07] <lyric> it's a... aptitude install program ?
[02:07] <Hobbsee> lyric: yes, prefaced by sudo
[02:07] <lyric> ok
[02:07] <mustard5> ubotu: tell linux_newb about samba
[02:07] <lyric> sudo is a software of the root user
[02:07] <lyric> correct?
[02:07] <dabaR> lyric: you can install that way yes. "sudo aptitude install blah"
[02:08] <darklordfuzz> thanks, i'll give it another shot
[02:08] <Hobbsee> !tell lyric about sudo
[02:08] <lyric> What I type to show the version of ubuntu?
[02:08] <Seveas> lyric, cat /etc/issue
[02:08] <dabaR> cat /etc/issu
[02:08] <mustard5> slashx1896, take a look and compare :)
[02:08] <Hobbsee> !tell linux_newb about samba
[02:08] <mustard5> linux_newb, see message from ubotu on samba
[02:08] <linux_newb> ooh i see
[02:08] <linux_newb> thnx
[02:08] <mgedmin> linux_newb, apt-get install smbfs
[02:09] <Hobbsee> night all...
[02:09] <doktoreas> the router ip is <IP_ADDRESS> and ifconfig for the card is eth1 <IP_ADDRESS> netmask <IP_ADDRESS>
[02:09] <lyric> Seveas where I scribe this command?
[02:09] <mustard5> night Hobbsee !
[02:09] <doktoreas> dabaR:
[02:09] <doktoreas> the router ip is <IP_ADDRESS> and ifconfig for the card is eth1 <IP_ADDRESS> netmask <IP_ADDRESS>
[02:09] <mgedmin> linux_newb, you need 'samba' if you want to share your Linux disk, and 'smbfs' if you want to access a shared disk from Linux
[02:09] <dabaR> doktoreas: can you ping the router?
[02:09] <Mabus06> Can someone refer me to some docs on turning an .avi file into something readable by a conventional dvd player?
[02:09] <rob_> oh dear, i've just logged in and looks like someone else has a *very* similar problem
[02:09] <lyric> issue = ?
[02:09] <artox> where can i get the SDK, konsole prints: checking for valid Xorg SDK... configure: error: Unable to find xf86Version.h under /usr/X11R6/lib/Server/include and /usr/X11R6/lib/Server/xc/include
[02:10] <doktoreas> dabaR: nope :(
[02:10] <boabsta> Mabus06, google for konqkonv then look at that file
[02:10] <doktoreas> dabaR: i can only ping myself
[02:10] <rob_> can anyone help me with sharing a folder.  i've done what seems obvious. but now when i go to places>network servers it asks for a password repeatedly no matter what i type
[02:10] <dabaR> doktoreas: and you can not ping google, and you can not browse the web?
[02:11] <boabsta> Mabus06, or use it if you run KDE
[02:11] <artox> that was while trying to ./configure evdev driver
[02:11] <lyric> issue = ?
[02:11] <lyric> cat /etc/issu
[02:11] <Mabus06> boabsta, I use gmone
[02:11] <MickMcMack> Why would my pound sign not work? :(
[02:11] <lyric> what means issu ?
[02:11] <mwe> artox: maybe you need the xlibs-dev package
[02:12] <lyric> dabaR what means issu?
[02:12] <doktoreas> dabaR: i can't ping the router so interent is not working
[02:12] <mwe> lyric: it was a typo. it's cat /etc/issue
[02:13] <dabaR> lyric: it was a typo. seveas told you the right command. "cat /etc/issue" will tell you what version of ubuntu you have. This is while in ubuntu.
[02:13] <artox> mwe: nope, same problem
[02:13] <boabsta> Mabus06, no matter, download the konqkonv desktop file and look at that - it shows command line to convert a AVI
[02:13] <lyric> dabaR ah... okay
[02:14] <dabaR> doktoreas: maybe you turned off pinging on your router... Anyhow, you have a proper IP address, I do not see why you would not be able to surf. post your /etc/network/interfaces file to paste.ubuntulinux.nl
[02:14] <mwe> artox: what did you say you're trying to compile?
[02:14] <derek[] > What's the command to update a package?
[02:15] <derek[] > say irssi
[02:15] <aquarius> In a fresh breezy install, OpenOffice Writer is coming up with the OO filepickers for loading and saving, not the gnome filepickers. WHy might this be?
[02:16] <mwe> derek[] : don't you want to update all avialble packages?
[02:16] <derek[] > no
[02:16] <artox> mwe: i tried to compile the evdev driver! (0.2)
[02:16] <derek[] > limited internet usage
[02:16] <snorks> How to play .ape files in XMMS? Which codek is that?
[02:16] <aquarius> derek[] , apt-get install <packagename> will upgrade just that package and its dependencies.
[02:17] <derek[] > aquarius, ok
[02:17] <mwe> artox: I don't know about that, sorry. try asking in the channel again
[02:17] <derek[] > aquarius, even if its already installed? (i thought there would be something like "apt-get update.."
[02:17] <derek[] > )
[02:17] <ZiX> i tried kubuntu but hate it.. how to switch back to ubuntu?
[02:17] <aquarius> derek[] , install will upgrade it. "apt-get upgrade" upgrades all packages that need upgrading.
[02:18] <derek[] > ok
[02:18] <derek[] > thx
[02:18] <Kamping_Kaiser> ZiX: do you have Gnome installed still?
[02:18] <aquarius> I have openoffice.org2-gnome installed, but it doesn't seem to be using it.
[02:18] <ZiX> Kamping_Kaiser: yup.
[02:18] <Kamping_Kaiser> ZiX: click 'sessions' wehn your at the login screen, and you can use Gnome
[02:18] <rraajj> ZiX: If you still have Gnome installed, then just change the session to "Gnome" in the login screen.
[02:18] <mwe> ZiX: install ubuntu-desktop and use debfoster to uninstall kubuntu-desktop
[02:19] <ZiX> mwe: i already have ubuntu-desktop.... debfoster?
[02:19] <mwe> ZiX: yes
[02:19] <rob_> when i go to places > "network servers" i'm asked for a password, no matter what i type, this message repeats over and over. does anyone know why?
[02:19] <hile> well no real need to remove kde
[02:19] <ZiX> cuz all defaults are gone, artwork too, icons :o
[02:19] <hile> ZiX: if you want the gdm login screen instead of kde's, you can run sudo dpkg-reconfigure gdm and select gdm
[02:20] <ZiX> i know :o
[02:20] <ZiX> but then the artwork ain't back
[02:20] <mwe> but if he doesn't like kde, keeping it around would be a terrible waste of space
[02:20] <olicat> does anyone know how to fix unmounting usb devices in ubuntu?
[02:20] <ZiX> mwe: i like kde but just not the bloat..
[02:20] <derek[] > http://paste.ubuntulinux.nl/5371
[02:20] <ZiX> and the kopete that err..... is slow
[02:20] <ZiX> xD
[02:21] <MickMcMack> ZiX, so use twm. \o/
[02:21] <olicat> i've just come from suse 10 which unmounted usb pens, ipods etc fine. but if i unmount any of my usb devices in ubuntu, i get errors
[02:21] <mwe> ZiX: me too. I don't use all the krap. just the framework
[02:21] <ZiX> MickMcMack: XFCE or fluxbox.
[02:21] <derek[] > aquarius, look at http://paste.ubuntulinux.nl/5371
[02:21] <MickMcMack> ZiX, I thought you said you didn't like bloat. :)
[02:21] <Goshawk> olicat, what kind of error?
[02:21] <ZiX> MickMcMack: uhuh :o
[02:21] <khalif> hey all :)
[02:21] <ZiX> WMII :P
[02:21] <ZiX> WMII/ION/RATPOISON/OPENBOX
[02:21] <ZiX> ;p
[02:21] <khalif> Noob to 'nix here....
[02:22] <ZiX> do you REALLY use twm?
[02:22] <ZiX> :o
[02:22] <ZiX> khalif: welcome, then :o
[02:22] <aquarius> derek[] , do you want text-mode irssi or GUI irssi?
[02:22] <olicat> Goshawk, usb pens popup with "Cannot unmount volume", and ipods get a similar error
[02:22] <MickMcMack> ZiX, yep - purely because I'm used to it.
[02:22] <derek[] > aquarius, text
[02:22] <aquarius> derek[] , apt-get install irssi-text
[02:22] <khalif> I was wondering if someone could answer a couple quick questions for me?
[02:22] <derek[] > aquarius, I think irssi is only text-mode
[02:22] <ZiX> MickMcMack: i find TWM is terrible..
[02:22] <ZiX> when you like TWM, why are you on Ubuntu?
[02:22] <mwe> twm. I thought nobody had been using that since 1975 or something
[02:22] <Goshawk> olicat, maybe you have a shell pointing to it, or a window where the contents of your usb pen is displayed, you should close everyting
[02:22] <MickMcMack> ZiX, my first PC was a bit crappy and didn't really like anything else; so it's just what I'm used to.
[02:22] <ZiX> you'd better take gentoo :o
[02:23] <MickMcMack> ZiX, why would I want Gentoo?
[02:23] <olicat> Goshawk, everything is closed
[02:23] <Goshawk> s/everyting/everything
[02:23] <ZiX> i worked with redhat 6.2
[02:23] <ZiX> :o
[02:23] <khalif> Anybody using Wine currently?
[02:23] <ZiX> MickMcMack: well.. tweakability?
[02:23] <olicat> "Unable to eject, last error: Invalid argument"
[02:23] <MickMcMack> ZiX, to install something on Gentoo you need to like, sell your soul. :(
[02:23] <mwe> khalif: well, yes
[02:23] <olicat> as i said, suse does this just fine
[02:23] <rob_> hi, i'm looking for some help with a sharing folders over a network
[02:23] <ZiX> MickMcMack: or wait for three hours ;)
[02:23] <Goshawk> olicat, use umount from command line
[02:24] <olicat> Goshawk, so whats's the point in having a gui?
[02:24] <khalif> mwe: Have you had any success using it with any recently released software?
[02:24] <dabaR> rob_: did you read the samba wiki page?
[02:24] <doktoreas> dabaR: i can ping the router from other pc... this is the paste
[02:24] <doktoreas> http://www.rafb.net/paste/results/6TYtLk41.html
[02:24] <olicat> is this ubuntu's idea of usability?
[02:24] <MickMcMack> ZiX, yep - I'm impatient, Gentoo is a nice idea, but I want to spend more time working, less time trying to get things installed.
[02:24] <Goshawk> olicat, we need to know if the problem is umount itself or a special flag that the gnome gui sends to it....
[02:24] <ZiX> MickMcMack: yup, me too
[02:24] <ZiX> that's why i took Debian
[02:24] <dabaR> doktoreas: why a static IP addresss? use dhcp for your router.
[02:25] <ZiX> first i had redhat, on a club, couldn't install ANYTHING (had no permissions, rofl xD)
[02:25] <mwe> khalif: no it only works with quite a limitid number of programs. they have a compatibility list on their website
[02:25] <Sarkie> hi
[02:25] <rob_> dabaR, i've been trying to, i've done all that's abvious it when i go to network places and look for the other shared folders on my friend computers i have problems
[02:25] <ZiX> then, somebody said "gentoo is better"
[02:25] <olicat> how much damn testing could they have done if i can't even unmount the most widely used usb device in the world
[02:25] <ZiX> so i used gentoo for like 3 years
[02:25] <scott_> HI, can any one tell me how to realplayer to install. I am new at this system
[02:25] <ZiX> first install was done by the guy, second by me
[02:25] <MickMcMack> ZiX, also; Mentor Graphics behaves better in twm than most other Window Managers that I've tried - but in the end, it's still the same OS; it's just about preference.
[02:25] <ZiX> then, i switched to Debian, to see how that was
[02:25] <olicat> i can unmount stuff if i call eject /dev/node from a command line. i don't want to do that 50 odd times every day
[02:25] <dabaR> olicat: stop being negative.
[02:25] <ZiX> some things were missing, and i heard much about ubuntu
[02:25] <artox> how can i see my X Version??
[02:25] <mwe> khalif: most recent program I ran with wine was IE because I needed it for my web bank
[02:25] <ZiX> so i tried ubuntu
[02:25] <ZiX> xD
[02:25] <Goshawk> olicat, i have 3 usb pens, and i had been never got errors
[02:25] <khalif> I know, I was just browsing it. I'm a web developer who's addicted to Dreamweaver....
[02:26] <dabaR> olicat: how wouuld you like to unmount things?
[02:26] <ZiX> MickMcMack: is TWN the original X wm?
[02:26] <ZiX> :o
[02:26] <Sarkie> I am installing KDE for Ubuntu is it as easy as install KDE then uninstall GNOME?
[02:26] <olicat> dabaR, it's hard to be positive with such glaringly obvious bugs halting productivity
[02:26] <mwe> khalif: Oh
[02:26] <ZiX> TWM*
[02:26] <ZiX> hi PabloEscobar_
[02:26] <MickMcMack> ZiX, I thinkso, yes.
[02:26] <ZiX> Paradoxx*
[02:26] <olicat> dabaR, from right clicking the device on the desktop, or the disk unmounter applet
[02:26] <ZiX> :o
[02:26] <khalif> I use an iMac at home, but I need something for my laptop which is running Kubuntu...
[02:26] <mwe> khalif: I don't think it works with wine. check frankscorner.org too, though
[02:26] <ZiX> MickMcMack: why didn't they call it XWM, then?
[02:26] <ZiX> :o
[02:26] <doktoreas> dabaR: i wanna use staic ip address
[02:26] <artox> how can i see my X Version??
[02:26] <ZiX> oh wauit
[02:26] <MickMcMack> ZiX, because it is THE window manager to use. xD
[02:26] <ZiX> wait*
[02:26] <ZiX> THE WINDOW MANAGER
[02:26] <khalif> What's frankscorner?
[02:26] <ZiX> yea :o
[02:26] <dabaR> doktoreas: then set it up at the router, not at the computer.
[02:26] <BigKahuna> Looking for help with a (PAL) MythTV installation.. Any experts out there?
[02:27] <PabloEscobar_> ZiX-> hi
[02:27] <Goshawk> olicat, i'm not saying to you that you must use the command line, but try it to know if the problem is fromward umount or a bad flags gives to it...
[02:27] <ZiX> but it's so empty...
[02:27] <ZiX> :p
[02:27] <ZiX> PabloEscobar_: i accidentaly typed your name, damn tab-completion.
[02:27] <Goshawk> olicat, btw do what you want....
[02:27] <PabloEscobar_> ZiX-> lol
[02:27] <MickMcMack> ZiX, more empty space means more space for windows. \o/
[02:27] <dpupp> Does XMMS play CDA ?
[02:27] <lyric> When I to place the COMPACT DISC of instalacao of ubuntu... and to restart the XP, it already it goes direct for the installation of ubuntu?
[02:27] <ZiX> MickMcMack: true :o
[02:27] <mwe> khalif: frankscorner.org is a web page with instructions for installing different programs in wine
[02:27] <dpupp> IM having issues getting XMMS to play my audio CDs.
[02:27] <ZiX> more empty space on your harddisk, more space for the virus called windows
[02:28] <khalif> ok, cool. Thanks mwe
[02:28] <ZiX> xD
[02:28] <olicat> Goshawk, i;m trying to do what i want: perform a simple unmount command via the gui, as is the standard method - however ubuntu is broken. hence my visit here
[02:28] <ZiX> so the more bloat, the more stability, cuz windows doesn't fit anywhere
[02:28] <ZiX> (A)
[02:28] <ZiX> nice one, eh? xD
[02:28] <dabaR> lyric: yes. it will boot from the CD if your bios is set up that way. What is your first language?
[02:28] <lyric> dabaR portuguese
[02:28] <dabaR> !pt
[02:28] <ubotu> Por favor use #ubuntu-br (/j #ubuntu-br) para ajuda em portugues. Obrigada.
[02:28] <khalif> One more question for you: I'm also browsing KDE-Apps.org for some web development tools. Anyone you could suggest?
[02:28] <olicat> so everyone here with an iPod, you can unmount it through a gui without problems?
[02:29] <TuntisUbuntu> uargh
[02:29] <mwe> khalif: http://frankscorner.org/index.php?p=dreamweavermx
[02:29] <TuntisUbuntu> hey
[02:29] <TuntisUbuntu> I have a serious problem :/
[02:29] <TuntisUbuntu> I can't copypaste anything to freaking hard drives
[02:30] <TuntisUbuntu> I can't create any files
[02:30] <lyric> dabaR last question... as I move in the BIOS to make this when I to place the COMPACT DISC?
[02:30] <MickMcMack> TuntisUbuntu, what type of partition is on them?
[02:30] <TuntisUbuntu> IDE drive?
[02:30] <dabaR> doktoreas: do you think you know how to set up the static Ip at the router? if not, read its manual, I bet its available online.
[02:30] <MickMcMack> TuntisUbuntu, what type of partition is on them?
[02:30] <TuntisUbuntu> Permissions just say that only "owner" can change them
[02:30] <mustard5> TuntisUbuntu, ntfs?
[02:30] <NetGrunt> Does anybody know how can I configure my ubuntu 5.10 XWindows so that the CLIPBOARD behaves exactly like m$oft windows one ? Thanks
[02:30] <TuntisUbuntu> What do you mean? It's ext2
[02:30] <MickMcMack> Ah. what did you mount it as? rw or ro?
[02:31] <TuntisUbuntu> I didn't mount them, Ubuntu did automatically
[02:31] <TuntisUbuntu> You see, it's the drive this whole thing is installed to
[02:31] <dabaR> lyric: ask as many questions as you would like, but it is hard to understand you, and I do not want to give you some wrong advice. the installation should start right away when you reboot the computer with the cd in the drive.
[02:31] <MickMcMack> TuntisUbuntu, WHERE are you trying to write to? :P
[02:31] <TuntisUbuntu> A hard disk
[02:31] <MickMcMack> WHERE on the hard disk? :|
[02:32] <dabaR> NetGrunt: whatt is the clipboard?
[02:32] <TuntisUbuntu> Anywhere I want to?
[02:32] <MickMcMack> TuntisUbuntu, I highly doubt that.
[02:32] <TuntisUbuntu> If I go to the "filesystem" drive, I can't write anything there.
[02:32] <TuntisUbuntu> Just read.
[02:32] <TuntisUbuntu> Desktop is writable, though
[02:32] <NetGrunt> dabaR, whenever you press ctrl+c / ctrl+v something gets copied/pasted to/from clipboard
[02:32] <MickMcMack> TuntisUbuntu, that's correct...
[02:32] <MickMcMack> TuntisUbuntu, firstly; why would you EVER want to write something to / ?
[02:32] <dabaR> TuntisUbuntu: only the root user has access to the whole hard drive. each other user has write access only to his home directory
[02:33] <TuntisUbuntu> Oooh
[02:33] <MickMcMack> TuntisUbuntu, secondly; if you did, you would have to use sudo.
[02:33] <TuntisUbuntu> I have sudo, I don't have knowledge to use it
[02:33] <dabaR> NetGrunt: you mean to be able to copy and paste several things, like,  press ctrl
[02:33] <dabaR> +c several times and it remembers all what you copied?
[02:33] <TuntisUbuntu> Then, tell me where to put files for ndiswrapper?
[02:33] <dabaR> !root
[02:33] <ubotu> I guess root is rumour has it, that root is disabled in Ubuntu, actually this means there is no password set for the root account, use sudo when you need admin access, you can read all about it on http://wiki.ubuntu.com/RootSudo
[02:34] <dabaR> !ndiswrapper
[02:34] <ubotu> I guess ndiswrapper is a way to support Windows wireless drivers, but it is buggy compared to native support. More info at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HowToSetUpNdiswrapper
[02:34] <TuntisUbuntu> well you guys don't exactly seem to support dwl-510 either
[02:35] <dabaR> Im sorry? we guys?
[02:35] <dabaR> What do you mean, TuntisUbuntu
[02:35] <TuntisUbuntu> Maybe I referred the wrong person(s)
[02:35] <TuntisUbuntu> But I don't see Ubuntu giving me any access to config my dwl 510
[02:35] <dabaR> !wireless
[02:35] <ubotu> well, wireless is https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupportComponentsWirelessNetworkCards
[02:36] <dabaR> read those three pages, and come back here if you need more help
[02:36] <MickMcMack> dabaR, your nick is very confusing for dyslexic people. >_>;;;
[02:36] <dabaR> MickMcMack: why is that?
[02:37] <MickMcMack> dabaR, I think because the da ba, d's and b's can get confusing. And the R is at the end, so together with the b/d - it just looks all WOOOOO!
[02:38] <dabaR> OK.
[02:38] <MickMcMack> Sorry, I'm incredibly bored. :(
[02:38] <dabaR> MickMcMack: are you dyslexic?
[02:38] <MickMcMack> dabaR, yessir.
[02:39] <dabaR> Ill go wikipedia on what that even means.
[02:39] <[Inv] LLIypuk> hi folk ! who call tell me where's the ubuntu's *headquarters* situated ?
[02:40] <NetGrunt> dabaR, no, As far as I know windows doesn't do that by default. I Just want my xwindows to NOT autocopy to clipboard everything you select with the mouse
[02:40] <poningru_sleep> [Inv] LLIypuk: Island off of Ireland
[02:40] <[Inv] LLIypuk> ^)
[02:40] <poningru> [Inv] LLIypuk: Isle of Man
[02:40] <Sarkie> NetGrunt thats MIRC not windows
[02:40] <[Inv] LLIypuk> so Ireland distro ?
[02:40] <MickMcMack> NetGrunt, it doesn't - it depends on the app; as far as I know.
[02:40] <xerox> Hi.
[02:40] <poningru> [Inv] LLIypuk: um no
[02:40] <[Inv] LLIypuk> &
[02:40] <[Inv] LLIypuk> ?
[02:41] <xerox> Do you know if it is possible to hide the desktop icons?
[02:41] <GaWaiNe> Hi
[02:41] <dabaR> MickMcMack: so my nick causes you pain?
[02:41] <dabaR> xerox: sure is.
[02:41] <poningru> xerox: just rename it with a . in front
[02:41] <poningru> like if its xxxxx
[02:41] <dabaR> xerox: just have no desktop icons?
[02:41] <poningru> then rename it .xxxxxx
[02:41] <MickMcMack> dabaR, I wouldn't say pain - it's just confuddling at times. :o
[02:41] <xerox> poningru: hehe, no, I mean temporary :-)
[02:41] <xerox> dabaR: yep!
[02:42] <dabaR> MickMcMack: you think I should change it?
[02:42] <ompaul> [Inv] LLIypuk, the IOM Isle of Man is not the republic of Ireland
[02:42] <MickMcMack> dabaR, nononononono. Not at all.
[02:42] <xerox> poningru: it would confuse with the real dot-files, I think.
[02:42] <poningru> ok fine mv * .*
[02:42] <xerox> poningru: it doesn't work that way.
[02:42] <gi2k15> Is there a way I can resize and/or convert NTFS partitions on Ubuntu?
[02:42] <xerox> poningru: I mean, mv.
[02:42] <poningru> there are no dot files
[02:42] <poningru> oh yeah hehe
[02:42] <MickMcMack> dabaR, if people change themselves just to suit others, we wouldn't be individuals anymore. >_<
[02:42] <poningru> doh
[02:42] <xerox> I intend to hide them gnome-wise.
[02:42] <dabaR> xerox: to not have desktop icons at all, you would go into Apps>Sys Tools>Config Editor. In there, apps>nautilus, and find option for no icons.
[02:42] <[Inv] LLIypuk> ompaul - i'm sorry but where is it situated ?
[02:43] <TuntisUbuntu> ndiswrapper doesn't work.
[02:43] <dabaR> MickMcMack: well, I dont want to cause trouble to poor dyslexic people.
[02:43] <poningru> xerox: I dont understand why not just rename all the files like that
[02:43] <MickMcMack> dabaR, do I detect a hint of minty sarcasm? :o
[02:43] <testmachine> poor dyslexic people
[02:43] <testmachine> ?
[02:43] <testmachine> i am dyslexic
[02:43] <testmachine> but not poor
[02:43] <testmachine> dont call us poor!
[02:43] <testmachine> :P
[02:43] <MickMcMack> Discrimination! :O!
[02:43] <testmachine> indeed!
[02:43] <ompaul> [Inv] LLIypuk, on the IOM an island in the middle of the Irish sea, where the TT-Races (motorbike racing) takes place
[02:43] <GaWaiNe> I've a problem with my wireless mouse. It's a logitech mx 1000. Ubuntu have found my mouse but sometime it is stucked for short period of time, while on windows it works fine. What is the problem ?
[02:44] <xerox> dabaR: thanks, I'll scrap them.
[02:44] <poningru> [Inv] LLIypuk: dude just google it
[02:44] <poningru> or wp it
[02:44] <xerox> poningru: for a bunch of reasons, thanks for the help, anyway.
[02:44] <[Inv] LLIypuk> :)
[02:44] <chris__> any1 know a good vnc viewer
[02:44] <dabaR> gi2k15: what do you want to do exactly?
[02:44] <[Inv] LLIypuk> g00d advise :)
[02:44] <poningru> xerox: yep sorry couldnt be of more help
[02:44] <poningru> try irc.gnome.org #gnome
[02:44] <xerox> poningru, dabaR: if you care, the option is "show_desktop" under app/nautilus/preferences.. Thanks both.
[02:44] <poningru> since this seems like a gnome thing
[02:45] <gi2k15> dabaR, Resize my NTFS partition so I can have more space on Linux
[02:45] <GaWaiNe> I've the same problem with a touchpan and a usb mouse
[02:45] <dabaR> chris__: aptitude search vnc
[02:45] <Goshawk> chris__, tightvnc
[02:45] <poningru> gi2k15: use gparted after umounting everthing
[02:46] <daje> could anyone tell me how to search for files on ubuntu?
[02:46] <dabaR> gi2k15: you can likely get gparted parted or qtparted to do that for you.
[02:46] <chris__> tightvnc is rpm or source only
[02:46] <poningru> daje: under places
[02:46] <chris__> i tried source n i got errors
[02:46] <poningru> search for files
[02:46] <snorks> daje: locate
[02:46] <poningru> snorks: ?
[02:46] <daje> snorks: in terminal?
[02:46] <ompaul> [Inv] LLIypuk, this company http://www.canonical.com/ set up this distro http://www.ubuntu.com/ because of this man http://www.markshuttleworth.com
[02:46] <poningru> if he is asking he is not asking for a cli answer
[02:47] <AlexRM> Hey,
[02:47] <snorks> daje: I apologize, you want the graphical solution. Talk to poningru
[02:47] <dabaR> poningru: I told him what to do:) the xerox guy...
[02:47] <ompaul> poningru, perhaps we need a factiod to give like the canonical answer to that query I have seen it a few times recently
[02:47] <daje> snorks: ok, cheers anyway
[02:47] <arix> hi
[02:47] <poningru> ompaul: hehe true
[02:47] <AlexRM> you know the menu's at the top of the screen on Gnome (Appliactions, Places, System) - How do I edit Places and System...it will only let me edit Applications
[02:47] <[Inv] LLIypuk> ompaul - thx !
[02:47] <gi2k15> I tried using Qparted, but it said it couldn't read the partition's data, so some operations were disabled, like resize
[02:47] <arix> does anyone know how to setup the cdrom speed in gnome?
[02:47] <daje> poningru: looking for something like spotlight on mac, heard of something called beagle - any good?
[02:47] <poningru> AlexRM: you cant
[02:47] <gi2k15> And Qtparted crashes when I select hda
[02:48] <AlexRM> poningru, :( shame
[02:48] <poningru> daje: hehe pretty good
[02:48] <poningru> AlexRM: well you can
[02:48] <AlexRM> poningru,  :)
[02:48] <poningru> but tooooo much hacking required
[02:48] <AlexRM> poningru,  :(
[02:48] <AlexRM> oh well
[02:48] <poningru> daje: beagle is ok but not that good yet
[02:49] <daje> poningru: any other suggestions for a vanilla gui search
[02:49] <poningru> as in it supports stuff but doesnt have support for everything
[02:49] <poningru> daje: under places->Search for files...
[02:49] <AlexRM> Gah, XMMS keeps setting it's self to Always on Top, yet there is no setting for that
[02:49] <AlexRM> how can I make it Not always on Top?
[02:49] <poningru> daje: are you using gnome?
[02:49] <AlexRM> nevermind, I got it
[02:49] <poningru> AlexRM: what do you mean on top?
[02:50] <daje> poningru: yep, thanks - the best solutions are always just under your nose
[02:50] <poningru> hehe
[02:50] <daje> poningru : also could you point to a good .asf player - does vlc do it?
[02:50] <AlexRM> poningru, tis ok, I fixed it. I ment it was always ontop of everything, sya I open something full screen it will be on top, but its ok now
[02:50] <poningru> daje: you need w32codecs for that iirc but not sure if even that solves it
[02:51] <poningru> .asf is ms stuff iirc
[02:51] <poningru> ms answer to a media container
[02:51] <poningru> so proprietry up the wazooo
[02:51] <poningru> so try installing w32codecs
[02:51] <AlexRM> poningru, Is ther a way to change the colour ofthe Application, Places, System Buttons? because when I change the panel backrgound, the buttons keep there origional colour, which looks crap
[02:51] <poningru> AlexRM: try changing the theme
[02:51] <daje> poningru: can't find w32codecs using apt-get - is it in standard repositories?
[02:52] <poningru> daje: no legal issues
[02:52] <poningru> daje: hold on
[02:52] <AlexRM> poningru, I don't want to. I like my theme, just I want those different
[02:52] <poningru> !w32codecs
[02:52] <poningru> err
[02:52] <poningru> !tell daje about w32codecs
[02:52] <poningru> daje: follow that link
[02:52] <daje> poningru: many thanks
[02:52] <poningru> AlexRM: hmm what do you mean that color only?
[02:53] <poningru> like the menu background color?
[02:53] <poningru> EuroNews: dude please dont use pms
[02:53] <poningru> its annoying
[02:53] <folki> Can anybody help me how can I install software when I have only binary files? I know I have to compile it but I don` t know how can I do it. I am only beginners in Linux.
[02:53] <EuroNews> ok
[02:53] <poningru> please use the channel it wont matter if its too offtopic
[02:53] <AlexRM> poningru, Ok, take Windows XP for example, when you open an an application, it appears at the bottom yeh..it's coloured like Blue or Silver or Green (which ever theme you chose)
[02:53] <folki> beginner*
[02:54] <ompaul> cos if it is too offtopic we can move it to the offtopic channel :)
[02:54] <poningru> hehe true
[02:54] <dabaR> folki be specific. what do youwant to know?
[02:54] <gi2k15> folki, if it's the binary, you don't need to compile it. You just compile the source codes
[02:54] <AlexRM> poningru, I want it so that I can change the Panel Background and have the Buttons (Not actual application buttuns) change to, hum tis hard to explain
[02:54] <poningru> AlexRM: I think you have to go through theme
[02:54] <poningru> try it out
[02:55] <poningru> theme in gnome is not the same as theme in windows
[02:55] <poningru> so try it out
[02:55] <poningru> you can always revert back
[02:55] <AlexRM> poningru, but you can't change certain elements of 1 theme
[02:55] <ompaul> !tell folki about synaptic
[02:55] <AlexRM> such as panel buttons
[02:55] <poningru> AlexRM: hmm yeah that I dont know about
[02:56] <ompaul> folki, you should have a message from ubotu about how you can install up to 17500 packages for Breezy
[02:56] <AlexRM> poningru, I got an idea .... I can take my theme and change the actual button image :P
[02:56] <poningru> I am sure you can do it but I have no idea how to do that perhaps some of the more expert graphics hackers can answer this question
[02:56] <poningru> AlexRM: also if this place doesnt work out try the gnome irc server
[02:56] <poningru> irc.gnome.org #gnome
[02:57] <AlexRM> cool ok
[02:57] <dabaR> ubotu: tell AlexRM about themesforums
[02:57] <poningru> folki: what is the ext on that binary?
[02:57] <poningru> folki: as in what is the 3 letters at the end of the filename
[02:57] <poningru> after the dot
[02:58] <Millenniumgroup> hi, how do I delete something that tells me: "cannot delete vmware - is a directory" I've tried sudo rm and sudo chmod 777 vmware, still it complains, any ideas?
[02:58] <poningru> Millenniumgroup: sudo rm -r vmware
[02:58] <folki> ext is zip
[02:58] <Millenniumgroup> ok trying
[02:58] <AlexRM> dabaR, WOW, that theme that guy is running is amazing! do you know what it is??
[02:58] <dabaR> no idea, i use openbox
[02:58] <poningru> folki: yeah thats just a archive file
[02:58] <rob_> when i click places > network servers, i get a prompt asking me for a password to connect to the ip address that corresponds to my own computer? and when i put my password it it repeatedly asks the same question over and over

[02:58] <Millenniumgroup> tx buddy :)

[03:01] <ubotu> I guess pastebin is a site where you can post large texts and screenshots so you don't flood the channel. You can find it at http://paste.ubuntulinux.nl or at http://ubuntu.pastebin.com
[03:02] <folki> Full name of that file is QDictionary-1.zip
[03:02] <poningru> folki: why do you need this thing?

[03:04] <folki> It is not important why...but I want to learn how to install software in Linux because I have chaos there. Sometimes I use Synaptic Package manger, sometimes I have to unpack it and it is all, but I do not know how can I compile some binary files
[03:05] <poningru> you insensitive clod
[03:05] <poningru> ubotu: build
[03:05] <ubotu> If you want to build software, you need the build-essential package to start with
[03:05] <poningru> WHICH IS WHAT I ASKED YOU ABOUT YOU IDIOT
[03:05] <poningru> chris__: dude install the build-essential package
[03:06] <chris__> k
[03:06] <poningru> folki: ok well if you just
[03:06] <poningru> double click on that file
[03:06] <poningru> it should open up the archive manager
[03:06] <ompaul> poningru, the bot has no feelings so calling it names does not work :-)
[03:06] <poningru> from which you can just drag and drop the binaries to your filesystem and just use it from there
[03:06] <poningru> oh I think it does
[03:07] <poningru> :)

[03:19] <Paradoxx> strider_: if i recall correctly
[03:19] <ompaul> chris__, I just had the bot send you a message bout using synaptic have a look at that, being somewhat familar with linux you should have little difficulty with that
[03:19] <Raskall> why does nautilus hang when accessing autofs-ed nfs mounts? quite annoying.
[03:19] <sunnzy2> Does anyone know what program I can use to read reiserfs partitions from Windows?
[03:19] <chris__> ty
[03:20] <Dr_Acemaster> I installed kismet to monitor my wireless signal strength, is there no GUI?
[03:20] <dabaR> ompaul: it is a gnu program. linux is the kernel
[03:20] <sunnzy2> I need to copy some big files from Windows so I am wondering if I can do it without snipernet
[03:20] <ompaul> sunnzy2, there is a #windows channel I have no idea, maybe the reiser site might have some info on that :-)
[03:20] <strider_> ok. azureus from Debian has a naming conflict with Eclipse packages. Well inary then forme
[03:20] <strider_> Thanks Paradoxx
[03:20] <poningru> Dr_Acemaster: there is
[03:21] <Dr_Acemaster> poningru: it didn't seem to install any icons in my menus, how do I go about configuring it?
[03:21] <sunnzy2> ompaul, do you think windows people would know anything about reiserfs?
[03:21] <poningru> Dr_Acemaster: doh
[03:21] <ompaul> sunnzy2, don't know
[03:21] <Dr_Acemaster> poningru: I did open kismet.conf but couldn't make head or tails of it
[03:21] <kiko> hi!
[03:21] <poningru> Dr_Acemaster: you should install wifi-radar
[03:21] <Dr_Acemaster> poningru: it may have installed icons but I can't find 'em :)
[03:21] <poningru> not kismet its more complex than needed
[03:22] <rambo3> apt-cache search make ubuntu pretty |grep usless
[03:22] <poningru> !info wifi-radar
[03:22] <ubotu> wifi-radar: (graphical utility for managing Wi-Fi profiles), section universe/net, is optional. Version: 1.9.4-0ubuntu6 (breezy), Packaged size: 29 kB, Installed size: 200 kB
[03:22] <Paradoxx> strider_: np
[03:22] <kiko> i have a question
[03:22] <Dr_Acemaster> poningru: aight, is wifi-radar in synaptic?
[03:22] <Paradoxx> anyone has wma files work??
[03:22] <strider_> sunnzy2 : there are many. I've used a .NET GUI app (yarreg or something like that). Google for it
[03:22] <poningru> Dr_Acemaster: yes
[03:22] <Lunz> hi can someone please help me? I want to change my boot order in Ubuntu?
[03:22] <dabaR> Paradoxx: you need the w32codecs
[03:22] <Dr_Acemaster> poningru: ok thanks, will give that a try
[03:22] <poningru> if you enabled the universe and multiverse
[03:22] <dabaR> ubotu: tell Paradoxx about w32codecs
[03:22] <kiko> is easy
[03:22] <Dr_Acemaster> poningru: yes I did
[03:22] <Paradoxx> dabaR: but i have those installed, and yet still...
[03:23] <dabaR> Lunz: you want windowws to boot by defaul
[03:23] <poningru> Dr_Acemaster: then you should be able to get it
[03:23] <sunnzy2> strider, I am aware there are many... I just don't like trying out random programs on google...
[03:23] <holycow> *hmmm* i forgot the command to add a user to a particular group ... what is it again?  google is suggesting the use of 'useradd' which is stupid
[03:23] <poningru> Dr_Acemaster: make sure to run it under sudo
[03:23] <Lunz> yes dabaR that's right.
[03:23] <ompaul> Lunz, sudo >> nano /boot/grub/menu.lst << and change the number for "default"
[03:23] <rambo3> Lunz sudo gedit /boot/grub/menu.lst
[03:23] <sunnzy2> No one talks in the windows channel...
[03:23] <Dr_Acemaster> poningru: how do I do that? run synaptic from terminal w/ sudo?
[03:23] <Sarkie> hi
[03:23] <kiko> dpkg -i gstreamer0.8-ffmpeg_0.8.2-1_i386.deb
[03:23] <kiko> and voil
[03:23] <bluewater1000> sunnzy2. copy the docs to a CD ,, other alt.. tranfer the docs to a vfat partition
[03:23] <poningru> Dr_Acemaster: hehe no I meant run wifi-radar after installation in sudo
[03:23] <kiko> you have to install w32codecs
[03:23] <kiko> dpkg -i gstreamer0.8-ffmpeg_0.8.2-1_i386.deb
[03:23] <Lunz> how do I know what number to change it to though?
[03:24] <kiko> that's the package
[03:24] <Dr_Acemaster> poningru: so needs to be run from terminal?
[03:24] <Sarkie> Right i have just installed Kubuntu desktop over Uubntu, now gnome is still on it, i have lost windows from boot up menu and gained maybe 3 other ubuntus, can some help me!!!!
[03:24] <holycow> oh nm there we go, adduser works
[03:24] <dabaR> Lunz: "sudo gedit /boot/grub/menu.lst" and then read that file, it is self explanatory how to do it.
[03:24] <sunnzy2> bluewater1000, yes I do have a 5 GB usb stick
[03:24] <poningru> Dr_Acemaster: yeah after installation just go to the terminal and type in 'sudo wifi-radar'
[03:24] <Paradoxx> dabaR: i just tried to reinstall em, and it said "Reinstallation of w32codec not possible, it could not be downloaded"
[03:24] <Dr_Acemaster> poningru: well that's kind of pain, it won't run w/o sudo?
[03:24] <poningru> or if you want create a panel icon for it
[03:24] <Dr_Acemaster> poningru: well I'd like for it to start up auto
[03:24] <bluewater1000> sunnzy2 grins well that only 10 CDs
[03:25] <Dr_Acemaster> and tell me right from the get if I have any connections available
[03:25] <dabaR> Paradoxx: with apt?
[03:25] <Dr_Acemaster> and how strng they are
[03:25] <Paradoxx> yep
[03:25] <poningru> Dr_Acemaster: http://www.bitbuilder.com/wifi_radar/
[03:25] <Paradoxx> sudo apt-get install --reinstall w32codec
[03:25] <Lunz> alright I'll read it
[03:25] <dabaR> Paradoxx: aptitude search w32codecs. tell me whether there is a ii to the left of it.
[03:25] <strider_> sunnzy2 : I used this once for transferring a file. It worked for me http://yareg.akucom.de/

[03:29] <sunnzy2> ompaul, alright
[03:29] <u|qos> hey guys ...
[03:29] <dabaR> kiko: what program do you use for playing music?
[03:29] <mgedmin> chris__, did you install vncviewer from source?
[03:29] <kiko> totem
[03:29] <u|qos> how do i add/remove a line to a file via bash?
[03:29] <dabaR> Paradoxx: I dont know. try "sudo aptitude install gstreamer0.8-~n"
[03:29] <kiko> and to watch films too
[03:29] <chris__> unless i installed from rmp then yes
[03:29] <valles> mwe: can't connect to local MYSQL server  through socket '/var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock' (2)
[03:29] <Lunz> dabaR: my Microsoft Windows Xp is the 6th entry, so I would change the "Default" value to 6?? is that right?? to make Windows the default boot?
[03:30] <dabaR> either 6 or 5
[03:30] <dabaR> kiko: how did you install that .deb for ffmpeg?
[03:30] <mgedmin> chris__, there are no rpms nor rmps in Ubuntu
[03:30] <blizzkid> lo all. I've been googling for weeks, but can't find the solution. I would like to see a notification of incoming calls on my samsung d-500. Kmobiletools should do the trick, but after 15 seconds, it disconnects.
[03:30] <chris__> exatly
[03:30] <Lunz> yeh, I did start the counting from 0.. so it should be 6
[03:30] <ompaul> chris__, that is not the way with Ubuntu/ Debian, you should you use synaptic in a gui or apt-get command line
[03:30] <kiko> i don't know why
[03:30] <kiko> i don't know it
[03:30] <chris__> so yes i installed from source...
[03:30] <kiko> ffmpeg
[03:30] <kiko> is it good?
[03:30] <mgedmin> chris__, you should have used apt-get install xvncviewer
[03:30] <mwe> valles: hmm. is it running? try /etc/init.d/mysql start or /etc/init.d/mysql restart
[03:30] <Lunz> dabaR: Kool thanx mate.
[03:31] <mgedmin> chris__, try it now
[03:31] <ompaul> chris__,  jjust install it using the tools and then watch your problems go away
[03:31] <dabaR> kiko: that .deb you said you googled for, how did you install it, where did you download it from??
[03:31] <mwe> valles: run those with sudo though
[03:31] <sunnzy2> Alright, thanks guys, I guess I'll just copy it from Linux then
[03:31] <kiko> a second please
[03:31] <rob_p> u|qos:  Open the file using vi, nano, or pico, etc. and edit the unwanted line out.
[03:31] <chris__> apt-get install xvncviewerit actually wasnt source
[03:32] <chris__> it was compiled but had to run script
[03:32] <chris__> to move to another folder
[03:32] <Paradoxx> dabaR: it says " No candidate version found for gstreamer0.8-arts"
[03:32] <greatjones> hello, i am a total Linux newb, and I don't understand how to install firefox 1.5 - what does "tar -xzvf firefox-1.5.tar.gz" mean? those are the only instructions given on the firefox site to install the browser
[03:32] <valles> mwe: Starting MySQL database server: mysqld ... failed
[03:32] <u|qos> rob_p VIA bash ...
[03:32] <mgedmin> chris__, if you install software manualy (instead of using apt-get or Synaptic, or gnome-app-install), then you can expect these sorts of breakages
[03:32] <rob_p> u|qos:  In that case, cat the file, pipe it through grep and redirect the results to a new file!
[03:32] <rambo3> with vi
[03:33] <xored> iam searching for the KFTP-Grapper package, but it seems as packages.ubunutu... is down. can someone help
[03:33] <valles> mwe: Please take a look at the syslog (How do I do that?)
[03:33] <chris__> mgedmin, all i typed in console was "./vncinstall /usr/local/bin /usr/local/man"
[03:33] <ompaul> chris__, just do this >> sudo apt-get install xvncviewer <<
[03:33] <mwe> valles: hmm. time to check the logs to find the problem. /var/log/mysql.log and /var/log/mysql.err
[03:33] <rambo3> unless you want a new file. echo comecrap >> new.txt
[03:33] <mwe> valles: look at those in your favorite editor
[03:33] <chris__> ompaul, xvncviewer is already the newest version
[03:33] <u|qos> rambo3, i want that the new line will be attached to the old file
[03:34] <rambo3> why dont u use vi
[03:34] <rob_> once i attempt to share a folder going to "places">"network servers" gives me a prompt for a password to access my own computer's ip.  is it supposed to do this? i put in my password and it asks the question again, until i cancel, then and only then can see an icon for "windows network". is this normal. i don't understand what is going on
[03:34] <mycket> greatejones, you have the sourcepackage. Firefox is already on Ubuntu
[03:34] <kiko> http://pkg-gnome.alioth.debian.org/debian/pool/g/gst-ffmpeg/gstreamer0.8-ffmpeg_0.8.2-1_i386.deb
[03:34] <chrisx1> sorry wrong button
[03:34] <greatjones> mycket: i have version 1.0 on ubunto, and I wanted to upgrade to 1.5, is this possible?

[03:34] <chrisx1> but still its latest version
[03:34] <chrisx1> ill have to uninstall?
[03:34] <valles> mwe: they are empty
[03:35] <rambo3> w|qos it will add the line to the end of the file
[03:35] <ompaul> chris__, then type xvncviewer  <--
[03:35] <u|qos> rambo3, but how?
[03:35] <chrisx1> ompaul, look
[03:35] <chrisx1> chris@ubuntu:~/Desktop$ vncviewer

[03:35] <mwe> valles: hmm. try /var/log/messages then
[03:35] <mycket> greatjones, start synaptic and have a look what version is available. Compiling Firefox youself is difficult :-(

[03:43] <Exxcaliber> heien, have you got a program callede gnome-obex?
[03:43] <valles> mwe: can 't create lower-test
[03:44] <Exxcaliber> marky, just type "/join #roomname"
[03:44] <mwe> valles: yes. if you don't know what the errors mean, post them on the pastebin site
[03:44] <kiko> when i try to listening to music with totem, it gives me this error can't open resource for writing
[03:44] <heien> gnome-obex-se
[03:44] <heien> Exxcaliber,
[03:44] <kiko> can somebody help me?
[03:44] <Exxcaliber> heien okay..
[03:44] <lysis> with?
[03:44] <kiko> when i'm not the superuser
[03:44] <valles> mwe: pastebin site?
[03:44] <mwe> valles: I'll look at it and see if I can help you
[03:44] <mwe> !paste
[03:44] <ubotu> paste is probably please use http://paste.ubuntulinux.nl/ or #flood to paste large amounts of text
[03:44] <Exxcaliber> well, go to Programs -> System utilities and Bluetooth manager
[03:44] <Exxcaliber> heien,  ^
[03:44] <lysis> when you're not the superuser . . . .
[03:45] <kiko> yes
[03:45] <mwe> valles: the site ubotu just showed
[03:45] <kiko> when i'm root it works fine
[03:45] <lysis> what do you want help with about that?
[03:45] <lysis> i just entered channel buddy; i don't know what you're talking about. =)
[03:45] <kiko> i have to changes permissions
[03:45] <mwe> valles: then paste the url in here
[03:45] <u|qos> dabaR, how do i remove a special line from a config file via bash?
[03:45] <Exxcaliber> heien, it should show your nokia phone, IF you have activated bluetooth on your cell?
[03:45] <kiko> but i don't know where
[03:45] <heien> "Could not find bluetooth devices on the system"
[03:45] <lysis> kik, what is it that works fine for you
[03:45] <kiko> ok lysis
[03:46] <heien> Do i have to reboot, or run a command, after plugging my dongle?'
[03:46] <Exxcaliber> heien did you activate the bluetooth ability on your cell?
[03:46] <kiko> when i try to listening to music with totem, it gives me this error can't open resource for writin
[03:46] <heien> Exxcaliber, yes
[03:46] <Exxcaliber> heien, no it should detect it by itself.. atleast that's what mine did
[03:46] <kiko> when i'm a normal user
[03:46] <lysis> did you copy the music off of a disc?
[03:46] <kiko> yes
[03:47] <lysis> i had the same problem, the music when it's copied off of a cd/dvd (as mp3s already on the disc as data) will copy over with the same permissions you have from the cd. READ ONLY
[03:47] <Exxcaliber> but heien, on my cell i can change wether my cell should be detectable or not.
[03:47] <Raskall> why on earth does nautilus hang on some automounted nfs directories?
[03:47] <heien> Exxcaliber, i plugged the dongle in, installed gnome-bluetooth, and now i get that error. is there any command where ubuntu shows what is plugged in?
[03:47] <lysis> so you must open terminal and sudo chown [your username]  -R [the directory where you put all the music]
[03:47] <kiko> but why does totem have to write in this files?
[03:47] <Exxcaliber> yep, lsmod
[03:47] <valles> mwe: not much I can find there
[03:47] <heien> Exxcaliber, yes, mine to, but, i cant even start the program
[03:47] <lysis> just in case you request it to change id3 tags or something of the sort
[03:47] <Exxcaliber> ok
[03:47] <Exxcaliber> strange..
[03:47] <lysis> if totem doesn't have full power over the files, it'll just not open them
[03:47] <valles> mwe: it seems like something is running
[03:48] <mwe> valles: no? no errors?
[03:48] <kiko> aha
[03:48] <valles> mwe: it seems like something is running and it won't let anything els run
[03:48] <lysis> not the same with dvd discs of course . . . . but mp3's it runs differently.
[03:48] <valles> mwe: I have got error aplenty ... but
[03:48] <kiko> thanks i'm going to changes permissions in these files
[03:48] <Geeek> anybody can help me witn ubuntu installation?
[03:48] <valles> mwe: the pastebin does not have a thing on them
[03:48] <kiko> but it's wma
[03:49] <linuxgeek2> wickedpuppy, hi
[03:49] <linuxgeek2> u there
[03:49] <linuxgeek2>  ?
[03:49] <lysis> if it's wma you'll need to get codecs to play that
[03:49] <heien> Exxcaliber, bluetooth              43012  4 rfcomm,l2cap
[03:49] <lysis> i still haven't gotten wma files to work for me yet
[03:49] <Exxcaliber> hmm..
[03:49] <lysis> so i don't know what codecs you need.
[03:49] <kiko> i have download them
[03:49] <mwe> valles: you're supposed to paste the relevant part of the log on the paste site. then paste the url to your post here, so I can look at it
[03:49] <kiko> and they work fine
[03:49] <Exxcaliber> heien, what i usually do is to go to a terminal and type gnome-obex-send
[03:49] <laprag> I'm struggling getting AMD64 Breezy onto a box. It thinks the root partition is a swap partion :/
[03:49] <kiko> i have installed all the codecs
[03:50] <rob_p> u|qos:  The line you will be removing from the config file... does it contain a unique string of characters that could be used by grep, to identify it?  If so, you could do, "cat config_file | grep -v 'some_unique_string' > new_file; mv new_file config_file" and the line containing that string will be gone.  Or use awk.
[03:50] <lysis> ok.
[03:50] <lysis> you should be good to go then.
[03:50] <AzMoo> How can I install a truetype font that I've downloaded?
[03:50] <lysis> let me know which codec you need for wma.  *laughs*
[03:50] <ubuntulnx> hi! any reason for having such an old version of Cohen's bittorrent client in ubuntu breezy?

[03:55] <kiko> what kind of image processing systems
[03:55] <kiko> ?
[03:55] <Exxcaliber> heien?
[03:56] <lysis> kiko, correct
[03:56] <heien> Exxcaliber,
[03:56] <kiko> i work with idl interactive data language
[03:56] <kiko> in astronomy
[03:56] <heien> There is a window opening, but it doesnt show my  phone.
[03:56] <Exxcaliber> Okay..
[03:56] <kiko> do you know it ?
[03:56] <valles> mwe: it seems like it is missing something...
[03:56] <pantz> anyone know how automounting of camera flash cards is done with ubuntu?
[03:56] <lysis> kiko, not at all. sorry.
[03:56] <kiko> and i have installed it in ubuntu
[03:57] <Exxcaliber> Strange, well, you should search the developer mailing list for info, on the program..
[03:57] <kiko> and i have problems
[03:57] <Paradoxx> any1 know of an app i can use to convert wma to mp3??
[03:57] <pantz> i want to change one of the mount options - the annoying new one that gives all of my pictures uppercase names
[03:57] <mwe> valles: yeah. try some brute force. first get a root prompt. sudo -i
[03:57] <kiko> i have atyradeon
[03:57] <holycow> anyone here manage to setup a wacom with pressure sensitivity properly on breezy?
[03:57] <heien> Exxcaliber, thx for your help anyway.. :)
[03:57] <Exxcaliber> There's a link to the website at the Bluetooth filesharing program
[03:57] <Exxcaliber> np
[03:57] <lysis> do you need help with programming kiko?
[03:57] <kiko> yes
[03:57] <kiko> but with idl programming
[03:57] <valles> mwe: got it
[03:58] <mwe> valles: then killall -9 mysqld
[03:58] <u|qos> does nobody know how to remove a special line from a config file via bash?
[03:58] <lysis> unfortunately i don't know any programming.
[03:58] <kiko> i'm doing an application to show the venus express images
[03:58] <valles> mwe: no process killed
[03:58] <rob_p> u|qos:  I already told you!
[03:59] <kiko> but it doesn't work in linux yet
[03:59] <kiko> :))))))))
[03:59] <paul_> I've got a Nvidia Geforce4 Ti, and I've installed the official Nvidia drivers. Apparently my systems set up to do indirect rendering in OpenGL. Anyone know how I set it up to render directly?
[03:59] <mwe> valles: hmm
[03:59] <lysis> lol
[04:00] <u|qos> rob_p , sorry i missed that
[04:00] <fissy> paul_, did you change the driver in /etc/X11/xorg.conf?
[04:00] <paul_> Yeah, set to nvidia now not nv
[04:00] <rob_p> u|qos:  There are probably better ways but that will work.
[04:00] <ubuntulnx> hi! any reason for having such an old version of Cohen's bittorrent client in ubuntu breezy?
[04:01] <valles> mwe: read this ----:.  051204 10:31:31 Do you already have another mysqld server running on socket: /var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock ?
[04:01] <ompaul> ubuntulnx, it was synced from sid betwen october and april
[04:01] <valles> mwe: read this ----:   051204 10:31:31 Do you already have another mysqld server running on socket: /var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock ?
[04:01] <mwe> valles: yeah
[04:02] <mwe> valles: still have the root prompt?
[04:02] <valles> mwe: yeah
[04:02] <Toma-> anyone know how to disable certain modules? like 'fan' and 'thermal'?
[04:02] <valles> mwe: I should purge all previous instalations I guess...
[04:02] <u|qos> rob_p, thx i got it ... :)
[04:03] <theine> Toma-, try putting them in /etc/hotplug/blacklist
[04:03] <fissy> paul_, got nvidia-glx installed?
[04:03] <Toma-> theine: i do believe theyre getting loaded before hotplug
[04:03] <ubuntulnx> ompaul, it seems we have 3.4.2 (1 year old already??) when 4.2.x is available..
[04:03] <Toma-> but ill give it a bash anyway
[04:03] <valles> mwe: to unistall I went through the synaptic package manager and manually selected each package...
[04:03] <laprag> hmmm, why would the installer think to use (hd1,0) and not (hd0,0) in menu.lst?
[04:03] <ompaul> ubuntulnx, is it in debian sid?
[04:03] <theine> Toma-, then perhaps check out /etc/init.d/acpid
[04:03] <mwe> valles: try deleting /var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock then /etc/init.d/mysql start
[04:04] <mwe> valles: you upgraded from a previous version?
[04:04] <Toma-> theine: not getting loaded there either ;) im using initng
[04:04] <valles> mwe: I dunno ... I started
[04:04] <theine> Toma-, don't know initng, but does it not execute any of the scripts in /etc/init.d ?
[04:04] <valles> mwe: I'lll erase it but how do I do that from bash
[04:05] <Toma-> nope. different/faster init script system
[04:05] <mwe> valles: rm /var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock from the root prompt
[04:05] <ompaul> ubuntulnx, ubuntulnx could not sustain its release cycle if it was to go off and get the bleeding edge of anything that is why unless you are tracking a program for a release that you usually will not see new software in releases of distros, or at least that is my understanding of it all
[04:05] <theine> Toma-, so what would be the analog of /etc/init.d/acpid ?
[04:05] <Toma-> nah i think its getting loaded with the kernel... but ive put the acpi=off in the kernel args tho
[04:06] <SockerFot> i am sorry that im asking for help all the time, but how do i open/execute a tar.gz file? what commando is it? and is there any list anywhere with useful commandos?
[04:06] <Toma-> theine: ive totally disabled acpi i think. turned it off in bios, stopped running its init script but those 2 modules are still getting called for
[04:06] <theine> Toma-, anyway, I guess the proper way to do it on a non-initng system is to edit /etc/default/acpid and to put only the desired modules there
[04:06] <xxenon> can I prevent dhclient from fetching DNS info ? (I don't want it to change my resolv.conf)
[04:07] <valles> mwe: rm: cannot remove `/var/run/mysqld.sock': No such file or directory
[04:07] <theine> Toma-, and you also pass acpi=off to the kernel?
[04:07] <mycket> SockerFot, tar -xvzf filename.tar.gz
[04:07] <Toma-> theine: indeed.
[04:07] <SockerFot> okey mycket thanks
[04:07] <mwe> valles: /var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock
[04:07] <ompaul> SockerFot, what are you trying to open what is the package called there may be a native version for Ubuntu
[04:07] <mwe> valles: you typed the wron path
[04:07] <SockerFot> rarlinux-3.5.1.tar.gz
[04:08] <theine> Toma-, as a last resort you can always delete those modules from /lib/modules ...
[04:08] <Toma-> yehh... or rename them ;)
[04:08] <valles> mwe: nope ... nothing there
[04:08] <theine> Toma-, whatever you prefer
[04:09] <valles> mwe: rm: cannot remove `/var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock': No such file or directory
[04:09] <mwe> valles: did you run cd /usr && sudo bin/mysql_install_db --user=mysql at some point during installation?
[04:09] <Toma-> time to see what happens! :O
[04:10] <valles> mwe: no
[04:10] <mwe> valles: you should
[04:10] <SockerFot> damned hell, how do i unrar these files? when i try to open a .rar-file, the program says its not supported
[04:10] <rob_p> Toma-:  Are the modules listed in /etc/modules?  If so, maybe remove them from that file and then modprobe -r them.
[04:10] <valles> mwe: can I do that now or do I have to start from scratch
[04:10] <mwe> valles: did you thoroughly follow the wiki?
[04:10] <Sarkie> whats the command for command window?
[04:10] <Sarkie> i.e. in windows cmd
[04:10] <mwe> valles: you should be able to do it now
[04:11] <ompaul> SockerFot, okay, it appears that 3.5.4 is the latest of that, so unless you know of issues I would not use that one. http://www.rarlab.com/rar/unrarsrc-3.5.4.tar.gz
[04:11] <Toma-> hotplug didnt solve it :S
[04:11] <valles> mwe: I did....
[04:11] <SockerFot> ompaul, yeah but anyway, how do i use the program?
[04:11] <mgedmin> SockerFot, apt-get install unrar
[04:11] <ompaul> SockerFot, where that one = the one you have
[04:11] <valles> mwe: the problem is... I did not see a
[04:11] <mgedmin> SockerFot, and if that doesn't work, apt-get install unrar-nonfree or apt-get install rar
[04:12] <sls_> has anyone installed the fedora directory server in ubuntu?
[04:12] <termo> hmm, not sure about this:
[04:12] <SockerFot> mgedmin, i already installed unrar-nofree, the problem is that i dont know how i should use it?
[04:12] <ompaul> SockerFot, you were told by <mycket> SockerFot, tar -xvzf filename.tar.gz you when you get inside that you will get more ideas
[04:12] <mwe> valles: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ApacheMySQLPHP about a page down it tells you to run that
[04:13] <ubuntulnx> ompaul, it looks like it was depreciated favoring btdownload.bittornado??
[04:13] <ompaul> SockerFot, such as what it is that is within the file is is C source perl or soemthing lesle
[04:13] <termo> when I want to add multiverse packages to my distro. Will it suffice to add "multiverse" behind my breezy-distro line?
[04:13] <valles> mwe: I on it
[04:13] <termo> or will I have to add the backports distro as well?
[04:13] <SockerFot> ompaul, eh? i dont understand anything?
[04:13] <mwe> valles: excuse me?
[04:14] <Toma-> is there a way to search within a group of files for a particular string?
[04:14] <SockerFot> i just want to know how i should extract this file. its one file packed in 50 different rar-archives. and i cant open any of them, because it says that the file is not supported or something like taht
[04:14] <ompaul> SockerFot, before I take this conversation further, what is it you need that file for?
[04:14] <termo> i.e. will this work in sources.list: http://nl.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu breezy universe multiverse
[04:14] <eViL_> What is the best way to install a *.deb file (sory, I'm a slacker)
[04:15] <mycket> Toma-, grep wordyoulookfor *
[04:15] <Kaiser_Sleeps> dpkg -i
[04:15] <Kaiser_Sleeps> sudo dpkg -i debname
[04:15] <Toma-> ahh thanks :)
[04:15] <eViL_> ok thanks
[04:15] <Kaiser_Sleeps> np
[04:15] <termo> anytone?
[04:15] <mgedmin> SockerFot, open a terminal in that folder, then type 'unrar x *.rar'
[04:15] <valles> mwe: let me check
[04:16] <SockerFot> mgedmin, x? should i write x? okay
[04:16] <kbrooks> SockerFot, the full command
[04:16] <kbrooks> not type just x
[04:16] <SockerFot> kbrooks ?
[04:16] <SockerFot> but what is the full command?
[04:16] <SockerFot> the filename?
[04:16] <kbrooks> SockerFot, he told you
[04:16] <mgedmin> SockerFot, "unrar x filename" is the full command
[04:17] <Sarkie> How do i load up bash and such?
[04:17] <SockerFot> yeah i got that
[04:17] <SockerFot> ok
[04:17] <mgedmin> File Roller does support RAR archives, iirc
[04:17] <ompaul> SockerFot, do this:  mkdir rar; cd rar ; wget http://www.rarlab.com/rar/unrarsrc-3.5.4.tar.gz ; tar xzf unrarsrc-3.5.4.tar.gz; ls make* ::: read one of those make files and do whatever it demands of you
[04:17] <mgedmin> maybe it needs the 'rar' package instead of 'unrar' or 'unrar-nonfree'
[04:17] <valles> mwe: ok I did it
[04:18] <mgedmin> ompaul, rar is already packaged for Ubuntu
[04:18] <ompaul> mgedmin, ohh, did not notice it
[04:18] <mgedmin> in multiverse
[04:18] <ompaul> ahhh
[04:18] <valles> mwe: but i didn see that line of code...
[04:18] <valles> mwe: command I mean
[04:18] <mwe> valles: can you start /etc/init.d/mysql start now without errors?
[04:19] <slashx1896> Hey
[04:19] <_jason> SockerFot, unrar-nonfree is the package name (ther is also unrar-free but doesn't open latest rar files)
[04:19] <valles> mwe: i'll try it now and see ... Thnx for your undying patience
[04:19] <SockerFot> mgedmin, "bash: unrar: command not found
[04:19] <SockerFot> "
[04:19] <mwe> valles: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ApacheMySQLPHP about a page down it tells you to run that
[04:19] <slashx1896> I just downlaoded a .exe for my linksys router
[04:19] <slashx1896> how do i install it?
[04:20] <valles> mwe: no... still the same error
[04:20] <slashx1896> through terminal?
[04:20] <_jason> SockerFot, have you installed "unrar-nonfree" in synaptic/apt-get?
[04:20] <slashx1896> dpkg
[04:20] <sewoyl> hi, anybody having a 'characters skipped' issue when typing in xfce??
[04:20] <SockerFot> _jason, now i have
[04:20] <SockerFot> ill try again
[04:20] <sewoyl> this is really an annoyinh problem
[04:20] <valles> mwe: and the worst part is if I uninstall all packages... how do I know I unistalled Everything...
[04:20] <valles> mwe: no recidues...
[04:20] <sewoyl> it desn't happen in nome
[04:20] <sewoyl> Gnome
[04:21] <SockerFot> _jason, and now what the hell? it said there where no files to extract. LOL
[04:21] <mycket> slashx1896, you can't install ist. EXEs are for WIN and you have a linux System
[04:21] <_jason> SockerFot, the syntax is "unrar x filename"
[04:21] <slashx1896> I just installed a .exe file for my router (firmware) how do i install it? it wont let me run it
[04:21] <slashx1896> so what do i do?
[04:21] <_jason> SockerFot, if you wish you can use the archive manager (just double click on your file in nautilus)
[04:21] <SockerFot> yeah i did now
[04:21] <SockerFot> and it worked
[04:21] <mwe> valles: I'd reinstall mysql then, if I were you. sudo apt-get --purge remove mysql-server. then reboot, not really needed, but anyway. then sudo apt-get install mysql-server and run cd /usr && sudo bin/msyql_install_db --user=mysql
[04:22] <Thrashbarg> anyone ever got an EM8300 MPEG-2 decoder card working in ubuntu?
[04:22] <SockerFot> but hey man, the package name is "unrar-nonfree". i dont like the last word of that package. what is that supposed to mean?
[04:22] <slashx1896> i just got a .zip version and it came with .txt files and a .bin file
[04:22] <valles> mwe: i'll try taht
[04:23] <_jason> SockerFot, it's a closed format I believe
[04:23] <mycket> slash1896, did you read the txt file?
[04:23] <SockerFot> _jason, wich means?
[04:23] <_jason> SockerFot, doesn't have to do with costing anything
[04:23] <SockerFot> ok good
[04:23] <total_assault> where is the x config file in ubuntu breezy?
[04:23] <slashx1896> mycket, can i do it thoruhg linux if i have the .bin file? or can i only install it w/ windows
[04:24] <valles> mwe: I 'll reboot and be back in five....
[04:24] <mwe> total_assault: /etc/X11/xorg.con
[04:24] <mwe> total_assault: /etc/X11/xorg.conf that is
[04:24] <total_assault> mwe: ty
[04:24] <mwe> valles: ok
[04:24] <u|qos> i installed vsftpd and its running and accessible via lan, but i can't connect from internet to it ... are there any flags to set in a config file?
[04:24] <xored> i need to install libqt3c102-mt on breezy for skype, but there is no one in the reps Someone a tip ?
[04:24] <total_assault> mwe: touchpad config...
[04:24] <mwe> total_assault: yes. what about it?
[04:25] <total_assault> mwe: thats why i needed the location of x config
[04:25] <mycket> slashx1896, you could open a shell nad type ./xyz.bin (the filename) But if the firmware ist for WIN it wont work.
[04:25] <_jason> SockerFot, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Non-free_software
[04:25] <mwe> total_assault: yes. your touchpad is not working?
[04:26] <Thrashbarg> http://packages.ubuntu.com/breezy/graphics/em8300 <- should there be any reason why i cant find that in synaptic when i've got the miltiverse repository uncommented?
[04:26] <slashx1896> its a firmware upgrade and i figured i can do that thorugh my linksys config settings
[04:26] <total_assault> mwe: its working partly (was picking up double taps and no scroll) i installed synaptics driver have to config it
[04:27] <mycket> slashx1896, but linux has no drive C, no Folder Program Files etc. I guess you habe a WIN only Program.
[04:27] <mwe> total_assault: well I can post my xorg.conf on the paste site if you want it. my synaptics tp is working
[04:28] <Toma-> slashx1896: you have a .bin file right?
[04:28] <valles> mwe: back... from reboot..
[04:28] <Toma-> and a .txt...
[04:29] <Sarkie> say if i removed KDE from UBuntu and therefore didnt have konsole and such, how would i install packages?
[04:29] <mwe> valles: yes. and you uninstalled mysql-server first with apt-get --purge remove mysql-server?
[04:29] <valles> mwe: yeah
[04:29] <valles> mwe: now install ... what
[04:29] <Toma-> Sarkie: xterm
[04:29] <Sarkie> xterm is.....?
[04:29] <Toma-> or hit alt-ctrl-f2
[04:29] <valles> mwe: apt-get mysql-server ?
[04:30] <Toma-> sarkie its another "konsole" type of app
[04:30] <mwe> valles: then sudo apt-get install mysql-server then cd /usr && sudo bin/mysql_install_db --user=mysql. then pray
[04:30] <Sarkie> i did that and entered alt cretil f2 then apt-get install kde
[04:30] <Toma-> Sarkie: what are u trying to do exactly?
[04:30] <Sarkie> right i installed kubuntu,
[04:31] <Sarkie> then removed any remaining references to gnome
[04:31] <Sarkie> and one must have linked to kde cos it started removing some kde stuff
[04:31] <valles> mwe: ok... I'm installing
[04:31] <Sarkie> so i stopped it
[04:31] <Jxpx> anyone know where are the logs from the xchat?
[04:31] <Sarkie> and didnt have synapic or apti (there one) so couldnt install it
[04:31] <Toma-> Jxpx: /home/jxpx/.xchat2/
