[09:07] <mikeyhatesms_> maybe ubotu could keep a reference of certified helpers for instance, some who specialize in installation issues, which is the most important topic in the evangelization of ubuntu, and some who specialize in gimp, and some who specialize in audio/video, etccccc
[09:08] <TaJMoX> xst : i think the default configurations are the ones located in your current xorg.conf - so you can just press enter to every question
[09:08] <Flannel> Chore-Boy: no, you weren't "Already sudod", try `sudo -i` do you get a root prompt? (exit to get out of theroot prompt)
[09:08] <TaJMoX> eduhat : cedega is free
[09:08] <jmchaffie> what is the icon extension? (instead of .ico) so I can rename the icon?
[09:08] <dannyboy79> wols_: UBUNTU isn't my FQDN, so that's probably why it didn't provide an answer section or whatever you said/
[09:08] <Megaqwerty> eduhat: Yes and No. If you are willing to get it without support, and with a little extra work, you can get it for free. Otherwise, if you want it to be extremely easy to install with support from transgaming you will have to pay a small monthly fee
[09:08] <Megaqwerty> eduhat: I also have a tutorial on doing it the free way if you wish.
[09:09] <TaJMoX> jmchaffie : you can use .png and .ico
[09:09] <wols_> dannyboy79: if nslookup provieds and ansdwer which happens to be a public IP but dig doesn't. something is seriously wrong
[09:09] <ceil420> mikeyhatesms, that'd be a good idea, but then newbies would have a nice list of people to PM and bother :x
[09:09] <ceil420> i personally don't like getting uninvited PMs
[09:09] <jmchaffie> ok... it didn't find the ico.. will change to png. thanks again!
[09:09] <Chore-Boy> flannel: sudo -i doesnt seem to do anything
[09:09] <eduhat> Megaqwerty: can you provide me with that link to your tutorial. and how do i get it for free?
[09:09] <wols_> nslookup should return <IP_ADDRESS> or <IP_ADDRESS>, but a public IP
[09:09] <ChaosMachine> mikeyhatesms_, I assume you've never really seen a linux distro go mainstream. Since a lot of people are hearing that ubuntu could possibly replace their windows distrobution, this...is going to be messy. No matter what you do. :p
[09:09] <Flannel> Chore-Boy: looks like your sudo is broken.  And there's no telling what else didn't get installed correctly either.
[09:09] <wols_> Neutrinux: what is in your /etc/hosts and /etc/resolvconf/?
[09:09] <mikeyhatesms_> and maybe helpers and users could somehow be identified by their nicks, so that a loser, er, i mean a looker, like me, who comes along, would know who specializes in what, and further, maybe there would be a way to identify which helpers are busy, and which users are looking for help
[09:10] <wols_> mikeyhatesms_: bad idea
[09:10] <Megaqwerty> eduhat: the tutorial explains how to get it for free: http://www.linux-gamers.net/modules/wiwimod/index.php?page=HOWTO+Cedega+CVS
[09:10] <ceil420> ChaosMachine, it has replaced windows for me :p
[09:10] <Chore-Boy> flannel: i can do all the stuff i need to do with sudo, as long as i su to root.....
[09:10] <xst> The problem is that my current xorg.conf is wrongly configured. So I do NOT want these default values. There must be some way of making it redetect all values and rebuild the xorg.conf from scratch
[09:10] <eduhat> Megaqwerty: oh okay :)
[09:10] <wols_> Megaqwerty: you won#t be able to run alsmost any games with that legally
[09:10] <ceil420> GIMP's not as great as Photoshop (but the price is right), but i can still play UT and use firefox :p
[09:10] <Flannel> mikeyhatesms_: It's easiest to just ask your question, and anyone who knows the answer will answer when they get a chance.  Repeat every 20 minutes or so, because people come in and out
[09:10] <dannyboy79> wols_: ok, can you help with that? the only IP I have registered with a FQDN is my external ip to a certain hostname and domain name using dyndns
[09:10] <Chore-Boy> flannel: is there a way to just reinstall sudo?
[09:10] <mikeyhatesms_> and then maybe a rating system could be implemented so that helpers could rate losers, er, lookers, and losers, er, lookers could rate helpers.
[09:10] <Bassetts> I was just making a laptop report and i get an error when testing cpu scaling: /etc/init.d/powernowd: 156: cannot create /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0//cpufreq/scaling_governor: Directory nonexistent * CPU frequency scaling not supported
[09:11] <bone43> mikeyhatesm: lol thats for sure!
[09:11] <Megaqwerty> wols_: eduhat: I was under the impression that is was legal...sorry
[09:11] <Neutrinux> wols_: ??
[09:11] <Chore-Boy> flannel: or can i just creat another account that works for sudo?
[09:11] <MetalPhreak> anyone got a link to a guide on xorg.conf? I wanna build one from scratch for using HDTV res output through a DVI-HDMI cable to a projector
[09:11] <Flannel> Chore-Boy: your account does work with sudo.  Sudo just isn'tworking.
[09:11] <MetalPhreak> should i just not be lazy and search through the X11 website?
[09:11] <MetalPhreak> or is there somewhere better
[09:11] <wols_> Megaqwerty: cedega is legal in cvs version amf doesn't cost meony either. however it cannot run any copy protected game. and pretty mucha ll games are protected
[09:12] <ChaosMachine> ceil420, Thats good :p I'm refering to the people that expect an open source operateing system to be as clean cut as one built by one company. Although we're definatly getting there. But also...Redhat was supposed to be the downfall of windows >.>
[09:12] <Chore-Boy> flannel: can i download something to fix it?
[09:12] <mikeyhatesms_> the room might have many other subrooms, so that those looking for elementary help were not necessarily thrown into the den witrh the hardcore geekhackers
[09:12] <MetalPhreak> actually nvidia driver support has become better in feisty... it might just work when i hook it up
[09:12] <ceil420> heh
[09:12] <Flannel> Chore-Boy: `apt-get remove --purge sudo`  and REMEMBER which packages it say "will also be removed"  Then apt-get install sudo [list all packages that were 'also removed']
[09:12] <wols_> Megaqwerty: man xorg.conf
[09:12] <dannyboy79> wols_: hello?
[09:12] <crocodile> I mounted my windows partition to /windows , I want to mirror some directories into ~/whatever , how do I do that?
[09:12] <Flannel> mikeyhatesms_: #ubuntu-offtopic and we can discuss this further.
[09:12] <mikeyhatesms_> anyways, that would be the best of all possible worlds imho
[09:12] <Megaqwerty> wols_: why are you telling me to read about xorg.conf?
[09:12] <Chore-Boy> flannel: thx, gonna try that now
[09:13] <dannyboy79> wols_: I wouldn't want my samba network to be available to the world anyway, right?
[09:13] <arpegius> anyone know what it could mean if booting into ubuntu causes my lcd to lose signal and the lights on my keyboard to blink?
[09:13] <wols_> cause your nick statts with Me just like MetalPhreak's
[09:13] <wols_> dannyboy79: yes?
[09:13] <MetalPhreak> crocodile: um ubuntuguide.com or something has a guide for that
[09:13] <dannyboy79> wols_: why is that?
[09:13] <crocodile> Metal - I know there are guides but I don't know what to search for
[09:13] <ChaosMachine> crocodile, Uh, like link them to another location?
[09:13] <crocodile> i've been googling for ages
[09:13] <lo4fer> is it just me, or are synaptic downloads from the medibuntu.sos-sts.com repository just real slow?
[09:13] <MetalPhreak> umount
[09:13] <crocodile> yes Chaos, just a mirror
[09:13] <ceil420> ChaosMachine, with all those Microsoft-linux "partnerships", we're bound to be flying closer to cross-OS compatibility, making it easier for your average Windows Joe to make the switch
[09:13] <wols_> dannyboy79: what is in your /etc/hosts and /etc/resolvconf/?
[09:13] <dannyboy79> wols_: well there was 3 or 4 posts you didn't answer
[09:13] <Megaqwerty> eduhat: It looks like the best way to play games with cedega would be to get a subscription. (It costs around as much as a yearly Xbox Live subscription does)
[09:14] <elm> Would there be a reason why users and groups doesnt come up? ;.;
[09:14] <crocodile> ChaosMachine:  - I want too keep the existing mount, and just add certain directories to my home dir
[09:14] <Chore-Boy> so i just apt-get (cut and paste removed packages)
[09:14] <Megaqwerty> eduhat: more info here: http://transgaming.org/subscription/subscribe.html
[09:14] <MetalPhreak> lo4fer: yes incredibly slow for me a while back -.-
[09:14] <dannyboy79> wols_: http://pastebin.com/930841
[09:14] <wols_> crocodile: make a symlink as root
[09:14] <wols_> crocodile: man ln
[09:15] <NeXtDaY> TaJMoX: if u still there.. I wanna mention that OSX3.3.tar.gz is icon theme. do i install it with that way also or with another?
[09:15] <xst> I try to reinstall kde-guidance with "apt-get --reinstall install kde-guidance" but it says: Reinstallation of kde-guidance is not possible, it cannot be downloaded.
[09:15] <xst> What to do?
[09:15] <lo4fer> ah well, i from what i hear about amarok, it should be worth waiting for.
[09:15] <dannyboy79> wols_: http://pastebin.com/930842
[09:15] <wols_> xst: apt-cache policy kde-guidance
[09:15] <TaJMoX> nextDay : oh lol put it in ~/.icons then
[09:15] <whta> any way to make my gdesklets stay up if i click the show desktop button? kind of defeats the purpose if they just disappear.
[09:15] <Flannel> Chore-Boy: yeah.  You want to reinstall all the metapackages that taking out sudo yanked
[09:15] <ChaosMachine> ceil420, It'll happen. It will just be messy and require a lot of work. As I said, RedHat was supposed to do that, it died quite a horrible death.
[09:15] <eljak> ward_: i think the tools you need are torque, maui, openpbs, mpich/mpi
[09:15] <NeXtDaY> TaJMoX: Yuck! my mistake. am sorry!
[09:15] <crocodile> thx wols looking into it
[09:16] <xst> wols_: It outputs something. Not sure what to do
[09:16] <imachine> sup
[09:16] <imachine> nvidia doesnt work
[09:16] <imachine> little help ?
[09:16] <imachine> 7.04

[09:16] <imachine> geforce3
[09:16] <whta> !enter
[09:16] <ubotu> Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation!
[09:16] <NeXtDaY> TaJMoX: Thanks. it worked now. :)
[09:16] <MetalPhreak> imachine: what sorta probs?
[09:17] <imachine> MetalPhreak: well there's some program called chooser for proprietary drivers or so
[09:17] <Chore-Boy> flannel: workin on it, gotta type a lot of stuff
[09:17] <ceil420> ChaosMachine, i haven't been a 'linuxian' for long, but i know RedHat went corporate :x I just don't know whether this was the cause of, or result of, their loss to Microsoft :x
[09:17] <imachine> and it chooses the nvidia drives for me, then intalls it, then reboots the machine, and it reboots in some terrible resolution with crappy colours
[09:17] <MetalPhreak> imachine: i just used the restricted drivers manager to install it
[09:17] <dannyboy79> wols_: can I see your /etc/hosts?
[09:17] <imachine> MetalPhreak: yes and it turns to shite when i use it
[09:17] <Megaqwerty> eduhat: I'm sorry if that was confusing for you :-\
[09:18] <Smiley> can i do "update-manager -c" from the command line some how?
[09:18] <dannyboy79> wols_: I was having problem with sendmail and using a relay host.
[09:18] <lo4fer> imachine: have you tried downloading the file from nvidia.com and installing it manually?
[09:18] <MetalPhreak> have u tried sudo nvidia-xconfig ?
[09:18] <imachine> lo4fer: no.
[09:18] <imachine> MetalPhreak: yes
[09:18] <imachine> lo4fer: I'm not doing that. i want upgrades to sort my box.
[09:18] <Smiley> wait no, can i update my system to the new version via the command line
[09:18] <MetalPhreak> was there a seperate driver for older cards?
[09:18] <beni> how to reverse the lines, cat is giving me?
[09:19] <MetalPhreak> or was that ati cards
[09:19] <imachine> last time I did 'apt-get install nvidia-glx nvidia-kernel-common' and there was a version mismatch.
[09:19] <imachine> there is a separate driver for older cards.
[09:19] <imachine> and i need that one.
[09:19] <imachine> but the driver manager chooses the correct one.
[09:19] <Chore-Boy> flannel: it removed "gsku" but i try to apt-get that again and its not found
[09:19] <nownott> ok im in gparted how do i copy the contents of one drive to another terminal or gui this is a windows xp boot drive
[09:19] <Chore-Boy> flannel: nvm its not gsku, its gksu lol
[09:19] <dannyboy79> wols_: are you still there?
[09:19] <beni> How to reverse the order of the Lines in the Text cat foo.txt is sending out?
[09:20] <MetalPhreak> u tried nvidia-settings to change res?
[09:20] <crocodile> wols_ thanks symbolic like is exactly what I wanted
[09:20] <crocodile> *link
[09:20] <Chore-Boy> flannel: here we go... working now
[09:20] <KingJere> beni: use tac instead
[09:20] <MetalPhreak> sounds like your stuck in 16bit colours or something
[09:20] <Nvening> hi, i just tried to enable desktop effects (this is what beryl is called now right??) and it says they can be enabled? I'm on ATI using the their own drivers, is that the problem?
[09:20] <imachine> MetalPhreak: no not really.
[09:20] <imachine> MetalPhreak: yes I am
[09:20] <imachine> well not me, my dad.
[09:20] <imachine> i use arch
[09:20] <imachine> ;]
[09:20] <dannyboy79> Nvening: no, desktop effects is compiz
[09:20] <MetalPhreak> lol
[09:20] <rsa> hey i get an error when i login with gdm, something about chmod .dmrc and it not being writeable and that my home$ should be only writeable be me or something... can someone help?
[09:20] <Yorick> I've got a little keyboard question; is it possible to get the linux US-international layout to work just as it does in Windows? (As in, not having dead keys after pressing an accent such as ', but applicating it in a smart way, i.e. only when an appropiate character follows it and elsewise just dropping a quote)?
[09:21] <MetalPhreak> probably missing the correct mode lines in xorg.conf maybe?
[09:21] <eljak> Nvening: no beryl doesnt have to do with it, i think it is for compiz
[09:21] <imachine> nope
[09:21] <Nvening> whats the difference between beryl and compiz??
[09:21] <imachine> MetalPhreak: i'l look into it
[09:21] <nownott> no one?
[09:21] <lo4fer> nvening: the two are merging together, so apparently not too much?
[09:21] <dannyboy79> Nvening: they split awhile back. Beryl has way more options
[09:22] <Nvening> lol, contradictory
[09:22] <Megaqwerty> Nvening: A long time ago there was just Compiz, then it forked and another project started called Beryl.
[09:22] <Filthpig> hi, I'll soon be heading over to a mate to install linux on his computer, and he has an ati gfx card.. Is there anything in particular I should pay extra attention to?
[09:22] <dannyboy79> Nvening: compiz can be changed around using gnome-compiz-manager and Beryl is still very buggy whereas compiz isn't
[09:22] <SAM_theman> !pod

[09:22] <Megaqwerty> Nvening: now they are merging back together and are now called (untill the vote for the new name is over) CompComm
[09:22] <Chore-Boy> flannel: problem here is it asks for my cd, my cd is burned bad, i installed from iso.... i put the cd in anyways and it cant read
[09:22] <dannyboy79> wols_: are you done helping me ??????? i would really appreciate your /etc/hosts pasted please./
[09:22] <crocodile> CompComm is a horrible name ;0
[09:22] <MetalPhreak> beryl messes up mythtv for me so i can't use it
[09:22] <MetalPhreak> no biggy tho
[09:23] <Nvening> well all i want is for it to look pretty so anyone got any ideas on getting them to work??
[09:23] <Megaqwerty> crocodile: It's only temporary until the new name is decided
[09:23] <huzz> i thought it was composite-manager-community somthing
[09:23] <dannyboy79> MetalPhreak: compiz messes up my dual display
[09:23] <whta> any way to make my gdesklets stay up if i click the show desktop button? kind of defeats the purpose if they just disappear.
[09:23] <huzz> composite manager for the community
[09:23] <MetalPhreak> read the community wiki on installing beryl
[09:23] <Flannel> Chore-Boy: `nano /etc/apt/sources.list` comment out your CD line, then go abck and `apt-get update` then install that stuff
[09:23] <tom_> Hey Everyone - I am trying to setup some shared in Samba but getting some authentification issues - ive tried the samba channel - but there just confusing me! Can someone spare 5 minutes to walk me through it?

[09:25] <tom_> huzz: ive set the shares up and can access them fine - but cant write to them. Once i change the authentification mode - i get all sorts of problems :(
[09:25] <Chore-Boy> flannel: ctrl+x i think i get it
[09:25] <huzz> tom_, you can easily assign shares via the gui as well
[09:25] <zabin> has anyone gotten a webcam to work with linux?

[09:25] <MetalPhreak> thank god for places like this :D
[09:26] <KingJere> it should be in /home/yourname
[09:26] <crocodile> Megaqwerty: how stable and optimized is it in comparison to beryl?
[09:26] <Bassetts> I was just making a laptop report and i get an error when testing cpu scaling: /etc/init.d/powernowd: 156: cannot create /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0//cpufreq/scaling_governor: Directory nonexistent * CPU frequency scaling not supported
[09:26] <tom_> huzz: Theres a GUI!? (ive been using webmin!!)

[09:26] <MetalPhreak> anyone know why my USB mem card reader doesnt show up at all when i put a card in?
[09:26] <Chore-Boy> flannel: k, i edited that all, tryin the apt-get again
[09:26] <Megaqwerty> crocodile: Well, it's defiantly optimized, but as for stable...it's getting there.
[09:26] <Megaqwerty> rsa: what is the exact error message you are getting?
[09:27] <huzz> tom_ actually the gui just allows normal sharing access to the folders
[09:27] <xst> I have installed kde-guidance manually from a downloaded .deb package (containing a bugfix). Now I need to reinstall the version existing in the repositories. However, apt-get --reinstall install kde-guidance says that it cannot be downloaded. How do I force it to choose the version from the repositories and not the .de-file?
[09:27] <crocodile> Megaqwerty: think I might just try it out (i'm assuming it's public?)  I just removed beryl recently
[09:27] <Chore-Boy> flannel: wow, im pretty sure its workin now, its downloading em...
[09:27] <okv> hi. I wonder if anyone can help me with getting a RealMagic Xcard working with Ubuntu 7.04? Looked in ubuntuforums.org, but found nothing. Googled too, but no luck...

[09:27] <tom_> huzz: N00b Question here - but will that still work for windows clients?? (with authentification)
[09:27] <huzz> tom_, the webmin is more precise but if you want to just have users to just have normal read access
[09:27] <Olocaust> Hi! I have cedega , but I don't know how install! Who knows?? Helpp mee
[09:27] <huzz> tom_, yup they just have to type the username and password (you will need to create another user on your box, though)
[09:28] <PriceChild> Olocaust, please ask transgaming who you bought it off. they will support you
[09:28] <Chore-Boy> flannel: ok it said something about restarting x..... should i just reboot all together, or what?
[09:28] <wols_> xst: you should paste what it outputs
[09:28] <Megaqwerty> crocodile: It won't crash the system or  anything, just a few plugins that aren't totally working yet. Hold on a second, Trevino is maintaining a GIT repository for CompComm, I'll get you the details.
[09:28] <Flannel> Chore-Boy: ctrl-alt-backspace will restart X
[09:28] <MetalPhreak> Chore-Boy: ctrl + alt + backspace
[09:28] <nownott> can anyone pls assistance in imaging a drive
[09:28] <tom_> huzz: Awesome - is the gui pre-installed or a seperate install requirement?

[09:28] <Chore-Boy> flannel: k, well thx dude, youve been a big help
[09:28] <wols_> nownott: mand dd
[09:28] <rsa> Megaqwerty: what chmod is ur home dir?
[09:28] <Megaqwerty> rsa: to be able to fix the error I will need the error message.
[09:28] <PriceChild> Olocaust, you paid for transgaming support. Ask them
[09:28] <Chore-Boy> brb if my computer starts on fire....
[09:28] <wols_> Olocaust: #cedega

[09:30] <huzz> tom_, basically what you need to do is create a user give him read only access and then add the user to samba, with the same username and your own password or no password and thats all. When the windows clients try to access the shares they will use the user account with the read only access simple and sweet
[09:30] <MetalPhreak> DrFrasierCrane: just make sure u select the right option in the installer and manually make root (/) and swap partitions out of the 50gb space
[09:30] <crocodile> Megaqwerty: got it thanks I can take it from here
[09:30] <wols_> Olocaust: cedega is not part of ubuntu
[09:30] <ChaosMachine> DrFrasierCrane, ubuntu will automaticall install in your free/unallocated space. Just make sure you read the partition part carefully and dont do something if your unsure of it.

I've just installed Beryl and a few less intereswting packages from the gnome-app-install (add/remove... in the applications menu on gnome).

[09:31] <gemidjy> that happens after I tried to hibernate my computer
[09:31] <MetalPhreak> yep
[09:31] <DrFrasierCrane> or is it better to partition manually
[09:31] <mage> <-- multitasking addict
[09:31] <wols_> mage: even the single core is much faster than a p5 2.0
[09:31] <nownott> wols_:do i need to mess w/ bs?
[09:31] <DrFrasierCrane> so if i select this option, i get swap + ext3 from ubuntu installer right?
[09:31] <MetalPhreak> doing it manually isnt too hard
[09:31] <wols_> nownott: if you want it to go faster: yes

[09:45] <DrFrasierCrane> what does it say under "detected xserver" ?

[09:49] <Flannel> damageDOne: I think you just install KDE themes like normal.  You might need some KDE framework for configuring themes as well.  You might try #kubuntu to know thespecifics of that

[09:51] <Flannel> Ropechoborra: I think that'd be a security risk.
[09:51] <blackkky> anyone?
[09:51] <cBau> Philip_: You might check the #Kubuntu channel, someone there may know what to do.
[09:51] <wols_> and you tell your router to refresh the getmyip.com domain, right?
[09:52] <Chore-Boy> flannel: i was missin this line "%admin ALL=(ALL) ALL" in my "sudoers" file.... just had to put that in there, now i can sudoooooooooooo
[09:52] <dannyboy79> wols_: looking at your log, you were entering your own name as the begining, not mine which is why I didn't see it.
[09:52] <rsa> how do i change a read only file system into a writeable fs?
[09:52] <wols_> dannyboy79: I did not do this.
[09:52] <dannyboy79> wols_: I don't know if my router is a true dns server, I think it only forwards it to the ISP dns servers
[09:52] <Flannel> Chore-Boy: Odd indeed.  Like I said, something on your install was screwed up.
[09:52] <blackkky> anyone plz help
[09:52] <iradio> rsa: chmod
[09:52] <wols_> it is a dns server for a few names
[09:52] <dannyboy79> wols_: didn't do what?

[09:53] <ubotu> blackkky: Don't feel ignored and repeat your question quickly; if nobody knows your answer, nobody will answer you. You can search https://help.ubuntu.com or http://wiki.ubuntu.com while you wait. Also see !patience
[09:53] <Tormentor> Thanks for the help guys
[09:53] <Chore-Boy> flannel: yeah, well, im not getting that error anymore, and i have easyubuntu installed
[09:53] <Tormentor> Take much care.
[09:53] <wols_> dannyboy79: didn't put my nick in front. if you haven't noticed, irc does this always to see whosaid wait
[09:53] <Chore-Boy> flannel: now that its installed, what do i do with it>?
[09:53] <blackkky> blackkky> im trying to run cs1.6 ...before i installed the driver it worked..but with 4-5fps
[09:53] <larson9999> i think i'm have geek
[09:53] <iradio> rsa: easier to just right click in Gnome and change the permissions there.
[09:53] <larson9999> half
[09:53] <blackkky> but after installing it i cant run at all cs1.6
[09:53] <blackkky> its just doesnt work
[09:53] <Flannel> Chore-Boy: You can use sudo instead of root.  But again, having sudo not-all-there is more worrying in the fact that something else (who knows what) isn't all there.
[09:54] <wols_> blackkky: you haven't tol us the error "it's not working" is not helpful at all
[09:54] <blackkky> no error
[09:54] <polyneux> Okay, ubuntu is not letting me get into synaptic, it said something about sudo not accepting me as root, contact my administrator, as far asI know I didnt make any other users, but now synaptic wont even run enough to give me taht error again...
[09:54] <j6cubic> Hi. Quick question: Is it possible to have Ubuntu put installed apps etc. on a USB stick without installing it there? What I need is essentially a diff of what's on the CD and what's in memory.
[09:54] <blackkky> just not running.. and stick with the resolution of the game
[09:54] <rsa> iradio: i tried but its a mouted USB hd owned by root
[09:54] <rsa> \
[09:54] <wols_> Look buddy, "doesn't work" is an ambiguous statement.  Does it sit on the couch all day long?  Does it procrastinate doing the dishes?  Does it beg on the street for change?  Please be specific!  Define 'it' and what it isn't doing.  Give us more details so we can help you without needing to ask basic questions like "what's the error message".
[09:54] <dannyboy79> wols_: that's my point, I didn't know you were asking me for output because you didn't direct the line to me, my name wasn't highlighted so I didn't read it.
[09:54] <phillip_> ok, I try the kubuntu-channel. thanks a lot @ cBau
[09:54] <wols_> blackkky: that I don't believe
[09:54] <blackkky> wine "game"

[10:00] <wols_> !root
[10:00] <ubotu> do not try to guess the root password, that is impossible. Instead, realise the truth.. there is no root password. Then you will see that it is sudo that grants you access and not the root password. Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo

[10:02] <kitche> blackkky: after your load "freetype" put load "glx" then restart X
[10:02] <polyneux> Taj: I tried that gksudo nautilus and something flashed but not long enough for me to catch it.
[10:02] <blackkky> gloinunit, google IRC clients linux
[10:02] <c01100011> !Eye Candy ?

[10:04] <TaJMoX> xchat-gnome sucks
[10:04] <blackkky> yeah it was there already
[10:04] <j6cubic> kitche, what can I do from the live CD but not from the hard drive? Save Ubuntu's state?
[10:04] <dannyboy79> wols_: after looking at the log, you never told me that.

[10:05] <polyneux> wols_: I tried a few sudo commands and I don't believe they worked. Also most things in system > admin do not start, just like synaptic
[10:05] <t0m> this works with nnetstat?

[10:15] <wols_> dpkg-reconfigure xserve-xorg
[10:16] <wols_> jubei: in initrd or after that?
[10:16] <jubei> wols_: it's a driver so I want it to be loaded asap :D
[10:16] <disinterested> ! pastebin
[10:16] <ubotu> pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the #ubuntu channel topic)
[10:16] <wols_> jubei: driver for what?
[10:16] <jubei> wols_: not initrd
[10:16] <wols_> jubei: put the drivername in /etc/modules
[10:16] <jubei> wols_: driver for an ISDN card
[10:16] <BillyBeans> ok wols_ to test out postfix, if i send myself an email to the new account im hosting, or the user, will the email recieved be in the var/mail/user    will the email be stored there?
[10:17] <Dark1985> wols_ you think i should run the xorg wizard thing?
[10:17] <jubei> wols_: u sure that will do the trick? module name is qozap.ko
[10:17] <wols_> Dark1985: dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg. yes

[10:35] <Alvenhar> MilesPrower, OK, so you start with the CD in. Is anything linux-like loading at all? Otherwise you will need to set you boot sequence in the BIOS so that the CD is read before the harddrive.
[10:35] <blackkky> nevermind

[10:37] <mrcreativity> im having problem with my ubuntu installation, it crashes everytime I resume from opening my laptop monitor
[10:37] <Alvenhar> MilesPrower... Well, when you restart you're computer, make sure you have the screen turnde on. And during the first seconds, it should tell you a key (usually F10 or F2) that you need to press quickly to get into BIOS. There you'll need to find the boot seqeunce manager and make sure your CD drive is checked first.. Then you restart with the cd in, and it should come up loading whtaever is on it.

[10:44] <revvltn> could someone help me  a little bit?
[10:44] <blackkky> wols_,  when trying to modprobe nvidia i get Not loading nvidia_legacy module; not used in /etc/X11/xorg.conf

[10:44] <mrcreativity> let me check
[10:44] <twikesh> !anyone | revvltn
[10:44] <ubotu> revvltn: A large amount of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..."  Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out?
[10:44] <Chevyman> OmegaCenti - gimp
[10:44] <OmegaCenti> Chevyman: takes a wee bit long to open
[10:44] <wols_> blackkky: grep Driver /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[10:44] <mrcreativity> nothing,
[10:44] <OmegaCenti> Chevyman: Also, editing tools need not apply.
[10:44] <revvltn> Does anyone/anybody know about LVM?
[10:44] <mrcreativity> the screen deosnt blank
[10:44] <mage> whats the difference between the different WPA modes? this AP will let me do WPA-Personal, WPA2 and WPA2-auto
[10:45] <blackkky> wols_,          Driver          "kbd"
[10:45] <wols_> revvltn: ask your real question
[10:45] <blackkky>         Driver          "mouse"

[10:45] <revvltn> ok  I've being trying to install LVM for a wekk now
[10:45] <Chevyman> OmegaCenti -  f-spot is another
[10:45] <mage> mrcreativity: so you can close the lid and it doesn't lock you out?
[10:45] <wols_> blackkky: dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg. choose "nividia" for the driver
[10:45] <mrcreativity> now it doesnt, now that i changed the settings in power preferances
[10:45] <revvltn> for the life of me!! Ubuntu is giving me the hardest time
[10:45] <whta> any way to make my gdesklets stay up if i click the show desktop button? kind of defeats the purpose if they just disappear.
[10:45] <Chevyman> OmegaCenti -  gthumb image viewer also
[10:45] <OmegaCenti> Chevyman: keyboard shortcuts are lacking in f-spot
[10:45] <mage> mrcreativity: I turned of the screen blanking on mine, because when I close the lid the backlight turns off regardless of that setting
[10:46] <revvltn> I used Alternate CD and I can't get past setting the Logical volumes
[10:46] <mage> turned off
[10:46] <OmegaCenti> Chevyman: Yes, I have all of those by default. I was wondering there were others.
[10:46] <mrcreativity> is there a way to uninstall my current nvidia drivers and install an older one?
[10:46] <revvltn> because I want root in LVM and Alternate CD can't understand that
[10:46] <revvltn> how can I get around this issues?
[10:46] <ootput> how do i disable JOINS/PARTS/NICKS/QUITS in xchat in Ubuntu? Web-research suggests that there's an option to toggle it on/off, but I can't seem to find it in preferences
[10:46] <revvltn> this is an idae I have do'nt know if it would work
[10:46] <`4aFkA`> blackkky how can i save the edited text?
[10:47] <mage> ootput: its in the options somewhere
[10:47] <rsa> how do i join a diffrent network group via samba? it keeps sticking me in MSHOME but i want to be in rsadesig
[10:47] <Chevyman> OmegaCenti - not that i'm aware of. try apt-cache search graphics
[10:47] <mikeyhatesms> how do i go to another server from here?
[10:47] <revvltn> can I coppy and paste all dirs /etc /usr /bin etc... into the LVM set up then boot off the LVM system?
[10:47] <mikeyhatesms> like dalnet?
[10:47] <mrcreativity> can someone please tell me if there a way to uninstall my current nvidia drivers and install an older one?
[10:47] <mage> ootput: I think the xchat thats in ubuntu is a bit fisher price
[10:47] <revvltn> this is my last resort
[10:47] <ootput> mage: not that i can see. it's not in preferences
[10:47] <ootput> mage: lol, that would be the perfect description of it :D
[10:47] <`4aFkA`> how can i save the edited text from pico???
[10:48] <blackkky> wols_,  after finishing what's next?
[10:48] <sTaTix> OK, Forget this DOS crap... If I put this HD in a different computer, and install Ubuntu on it; will the drivers that are loaded and installed from that PC conflict with the other sstem when I put the drive baack into the puter I want it in
[10:48] <ootput> mage: are you using it atm?
[10:48] <blackkky> restarting X? wols_  ?
[10:48] <wols_> `4aFkA`: cltr+o
[10:48] <sTaTix> i know windows messes up
[10:48] <mage> revvltn: you HAVE to use a kernel with initrd if you want to move everything LVM side
[10:48] <sTaTix> i am clueless in regards to linux
[10:48] <wols_> `4aFkA`: you msut be root to edit menu.lst. use sudo
[10:48] <sTaTix> just want to save myself some time here if possible
[10:48] <mage> revvltn: also, kernel and initrd cant be in the LVM (make a /boot partition)
[10:48] <wols_> sTaTix: it won't conflict. ubuntu/linux is not windows
[10:49] <revvltn> mage:  yeah of course I'd do that to, as far as getting the LVM partitions ready is that OK
[10:49] <mrcreativity> can someone please tell me if there a way to uninstall my current nvidia drivers and install an older one?
[10:49] <sTaTix> AWESOME.
[10:49] <sTaTix> you are the man!
[10:49] <sTaTix> thanks
[10:49] <revvltn> mage: I know that

[10:49] <wols_> mrcreativity: simply apt-get remove the drivers. dpkg -l |grep nvidia

[10:50] <Alvenhar> Question (Ubuntu 7.04): When I try to run "gksudo gnome-app-install" it responds that I can't authentificate. But I'm pretty sure in sudoers list. And when I try to reactivate this app through edit menu, it unticks after being ticked. Can anyone help please?
[10:50] <blackkky> cool
[10:50] <blackkky> brb
[10:50] <wols_> blackkky: but make sure nvidia kernel module is loaded before you start it again
[10:50] <stefg> revvltn: i'd use a separate non-LVM /boot... less trouble
[10:50] <rsa> how do i join a diffrent network group via samba? it keeps sticking me in MSHOME but i want to be in rsadesig
[10:50] <mage> revvltn: I'd recommend using command line and not copy/paste
[10:50] <wlfR> Hi is there by any chance a program simular to iTunes for ubuntu?
[10:50] <revvltn> mage: the problem is that Alternate CD won't recognize ROOT in lvm and doesn't allow me to proceed
[10:50] <rsa> wlfR: Amarok
[10:50] <revvltn> mage yeah I meant that
[10:50] <SleepingSloth> wlfR - depends on how much like iTunes you mean!!
[10:51] <mage> revvltn: ah, I used debootstrap to install to LVM
[10:51] <PC_destroyer> Hey guys I need help getting my pc to automatically login (Ubuntu 7
[10:51] <revvltn> stefg: oh my good, I am not talking about putting BOOT in lvm
[10:51] <wlfR> rsa: thanks for the help I tried that program but I can't get all the plugins you need to work.  SleepingSloth I want album cover and so it get the tune names
[10:51] <PC_destroyer> .04)
[10:51] <revvltn> I want root in LVM
[10:51] <saloo7> hello, i bet this question has been asked before on this forum
[10:51] <tof_> wlfR, amarok is kdeish, you can look at quod libet
[10:51] <revvltn> mage: what's that?
[10:51] <rsa> wlfR: ok rhythembox?
[10:51] <saloo7> but is there a way to configure ubuntu to use the winkey the same way it works on windows?
[10:51] <SleepingSloth> wlfR - amarok is the app you want by the sounds of it. what was the problem with deps?
[10:51] <revvltn> stefg: is root in LVM or nothing
[10:51] <avalon> Is there a way to tell my entire system (audio/flash/etc)  to output all sound to my USB headset?
[10:51] <rsa> wlfR: but its either going to be rhythembox or amarok
[10:52] <revvltn> that's my stance
[10:52] <wlfR> SleepingSloth: I just can't get the plugins to work, dunno why, there is a built in installer for extra apps but nothing happends
[10:52] <mage> revvltn: it downloads and installs debian (ubuntu too) into any old directory
[10:52] <OmegaCenti> Good place to get a list of all system variables? like $path $home
[10:53] <revvltn> mage: so you think by coppying all the dirs in their respective LVM partitions will do the trick? And of course getting the Kernel image ready as well
[10:53] <SleepingSloth> wlfR - which plugins?
[10:53] <HorizonXP> cron doesn't let me run bash scripts properly
[10:53] <HorizonXP> can someone help?
[10:53] <mage> revvltn: ideally not while booted if possible
[10:53] <revvltn> Magilla: "into any old directory" well I don't want old I want Fiesta
[10:53] <wlfR> most important is that it automatically gets album cover and names of the songs on a cd.
[10:53] <mrcreativity> revvltn: what are u trying to do, maybe i can help?
[10:53] <SleepingSloth> wlfR - it should do track names, album covers etc etc out of the box - what plugins are you trying to install?
[10:53] <rsa> wlfR: well i have all album art in my CD folders
[10:53] <mage> revvltn: doing the move with a livecd will save some trouble
[10:54] <revvltn> mage: no, I mean coppying from a running ubuntu on a regular partition. I am talking anout coppying and paste these dirs into the LVM partitions
[10:54] <wlfR> strange
[10:54] <HorizonXP> please?
[10:54] <SleepingSloth> HorizonXP - what is thew problem?
[10:54] <wlfR> SleepingSloth:  you need to install some plugin to get track names working, right?
[10:54] <tof_> wlfR, have a look at all suggestions, that what I done and finally I'm stuck with quod libet...
[10:54] <rsa> how can i turn automatic mounting off?
[10:54] <revvltn> mrcreativity: I want ROOT to reside in LVM and alternate CD won't let me get pass seeting Logical Volumes because it doesn't see a / partition
[10:54] <errorlevel> I have a problem upgrading from Edgy to Feisty using the Software Updates.  When I click the Upgrade button, I get a dialogue box that says "Could not download the release notes.  Please check your internet connection."  I am currently talking on here on the computer that allegedly has a bad internet connection.  And, installing software for edgy works.
[10:55] <HorizonXP> SleepingSloth: I can't get cron to run my bash script correctly
[10:55] <SleepingSloth> wlfR - not that I was aware of...
[10:55] <tof_> rsa, remove 'auto' in the options of /etc/fstab
[10:55] <errorlevel> Does anybody know what I should do?  Searching google failed to turn up anything for the dialogue text besides the translations.
[10:55] <revvltn> and the thing is that it doesn't GIVE me the option to set my LV as root before that which is kinda retarded
[10:55] <mage> revvltn: its doable, you might run into some trouble that falls outside of the realm of questions that can get answered here
[10:55] <HorizonXP> SleepingSloth: it works fine when i run it by itself
[10:55] <revvltn> mage: such as which one?
[10:55] <acid-trip> i guess my dvd burner isn't supported
[10:55] <acid-trip> :/
[10:55] <jenetik> et
[10:55] <mage> personally I made my /root a 512mb partition not in LVM
[10:55] <SleepingSloth> HorizonXP - ok, can you pastebin the script?
[10:55] <mage> works quite well
[10:56] <HorizonXP> SleepingSloth: and if I insert an echo "Blah blah" > /tmp/test.txt, that seems to work too
[10:56] <HorizonXP> sure
[10:56] <revvltn> oh wait I got it!!!
[10:56] <mage> :o
[10:56] <wlfR> How can I choose a program to be the first to start when a cd is inserted?
[10:57] <revvltn> I make an install with a temporary root partition all other LV set. Then after booting I copy and paste the root partition in the LV partition
[10:57] <rsa> tof_: i dont see auto.. when i connect my extern USB HD it loads all the partitions...
[10:57] <revvltn> how does that sound
[10:57] <Chevyman> HorizonXP - 'sudo tail -f /var/log/messages'  what is the error? is the script executable? chmod a+x file. is there a bang line at the top of the script e.g. #!/bin/bash
[10:57] <HorizonXP> SleepingSloth: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/26025/
[10:57] <revvltn> better than coppying ALL dirs
[10:57] <revvltn> less chances of screwing up
[10:57] <mage> revvltn: sounds worth a shot
[10:57] <mage> why does / need to be in lvm anyways?
[10:58] <ensgabe> I have a Dell Latitude with swappable bays (C640).  I've been using the machine with batteries in both bays- now I've swapped out a battery for a DVD drive, and no dvd drive is recognized.  Thought on what to do (without rebooting)?
[10:58] <tof_> rsa, mm that is to be a gnome option...
[10:58] <saloo7>  is there a way to configure ubuntu to use the winkey the same way it works on windows?
[10:58] <revvltn> mage:  because that's more asthetically fitting and this way it   becomes a real PURE LVM installation
[10:58] <eduhat> hey guys, im trying to install steam right now following this guide: http://www.linux-gamers.net/modules/wiwimod/index.php?page=HOWTO+Steam&back=HOWTO+INDEX+Wine+Games   and im on the part where it says run wine without any params. well i did and it asked for paramaters.
[10:59] <revvltn> except for /boot, one day GRUB will be able to boot into LV /boot

[11:00] <TaJMoX> saloo7 : System->Preferences->Keyboard Shortcuts
[11:00] <rsa> eduhat: O.o OK first get the font.. put those in the wine windows/font folder then wine -msie steam.msi and then u can run steam

[11:07] <Alvenhar> MilesPrower, that depends on your BIOS. But you have to find where you can change the Boot Sequence. And there you'll have to cycle through the options so that the correct CD (ie the one with the cd in it) is first, and your harddrive second...
[11:07] <Chevyman> HorizonXP - *sigh*

[11:10] <TaJMoX> rsalinas : man is a manual program
[11:10] <eduhat> shawn34: do you have an answer for my question above?
[11:10] <TaJMoX> rsalinas : also you can do split --help
[11:10] <dbzdeath[lappy] > hey i'm trying to help a friend get their wireless network up and running they have a D-Link DWL-520 E   i managed to find https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Device/DWL-520vE1  but that is quite outdated  could someone please help me

[11:10] <HorizonXP> Chevyman: Looks like I've just been editing the user one
[11:10] <sTaTix> TaJ.... media errors, this is pissing me off
[11:10] <Alvenhar> MilesPrower, that doesn't matter. You'll have to have it in when you reboot, after you changed the options, saved and exited. It appears though that you have never "played around" with your PC, right? Maybe you better pass on this one, and get this friend of your's over to show you what to do. Unfortunately, Linux doesn't "just work", as windows.
[11:10] <Solver> wols_ can u help me?
[11:10] <nivekc1> i have probs with frostwire and it seems as though no one knows what the prob is lol

[11:11] <sTaTix> can I install ubuntu from XP with Daemon tools
[11:11] <wols_> rsalinas: there is none. why would you need it?
[11:11] <sTaTix> this would be my 4th time
[11:11] <TaJMoX> statix : try Wubi
[11:11] <Zambezi> How can I change passwd for root? I thought it was sudo passwd root -l and then use the same command with u instead.
[11:11] <shawn34> eduhat, depends on the app your going to install, but would it just make more sense to install all of them just in case?
[11:11] <wols_> rapter: there is none, why would you need it?
[11:11] <sTaTix> what is wubi
[11:11] <Chevyman> HorizonXP - very perplexing prob *that*
[11:11] <TaJMoX> !wubi
[11:11] <ubotu> wubi is an unofficial Ubuntu installer for Windows users - more info is at http://www.cutlersoftware.com/ubuntusetup/wubi/en-US/index.html

[11:11] <gloinunit> is there a way to permanently display userlists in xchat
[11:11] <MilesPrower> Alvenhar: I have played around, but not much. Furthermore, the friend I spoke of lives a good 10 miles away, and netiher of us have a car, so I'm stuck doing the instillation by myself, hense my being here.
[11:11] <dbzdeath[lappy] > wols_: http://linux-wless.passys.nl/query_part.php?brandname=D-Link according to that prism3 SSF
[11:11] <eduhat> shawn34: well i would install them. but i dont know how. the guide there is for an rpm based install.
[11:12] <rsalinas> wols_: what do you mean theres none?
[11:12] <HorizonXP> Chevyman: do i have to run it as root? can i run it as myself?
Joust general use.
[11:12] <Chevyman> gloinunit - its in the configure section of xchat, userlist i believe.
[11:12] <gormih> meet here only on the site
[11:12] <erUSUL> gloinunit: drag the separator on the right side and the list will appear
[11:12] <wols_> rsalinas: wrong nick, sorry
[11:12] <ds0n> gloinunit, on the right hand side next to the scrollbar for the chat window there should be a dragable devider for the user list
[11:13] <gloinunit> k
[11:13] <rsalinas> wols_:its cool thanks
[11:13] <wols_> rapter: windows viruses won't run under linux so you don't need it
[11:13] <gloinunit> oooo sneaky
[11:13] <gormih> windows must die
[11:13] <ds0n> hehe yeah

[11:13] <Alvenhar> MilesProwler, well, I'm gonna go to bed now (Germany, its 23:12). But just browse through the options in the BIOS, you'll find it. And anytime you accidentally changed something you don't know waht it does, just exit without saving. The PC will reboot and you enter BIOSsetup again.
[11:13] <wols_> rapter: you still don't need that
[11:14] <eduhat> corrupt: windows vista sucks ass
[11:14] <rsa> what happens when i wine a virus?
[11:14] <wols_> rapter: buy a NAT router instead

[11:14] <sTaTix> should I be burnign the disk Track at Once
[11:14] <sTaTix> or what
[11:14] <wols_> rsa: then you get executed for terminal stupidity
[11:14] <eduhat> corrupt: every 10 minutes or less explorer.exe stops working. no reason why. it just stops.
[11:14] <wols_> sTaTix: simply as image. what burn program?
[11:14] <TaJMoX> statix - disc at once is better
[11:14] <sTaTix> k, thank you
[11:14] <gormih> i'm Russian - not Spain
[11:15] <wols_> eduhat: we don't care about windows problems here
[11:15] <TaJMoX> yeah what are you using to burn statix
[11:15] <corrupt> eduhat, are you serious? they got some new vista machines in a computer lab and i haven't had any trouble with them at all.
NAT router is that hard/software?
[11:15] <sTaTix> nope, dont have that
[11:15] <gormih> meet here only on the site
[11:15] <sTaTix> i have track at once or session at once
[11:15] <TaJMoX> eduhat : try Ubuntu instead
[11:15] <wols_> rapter: hardware. little box
[11:15] <eduhat> wols_: i was just explaining to corrupt something. im not asking for help. just helping to state that windows vista sucks.

[11:16] <mage> gormih probably doesn't speaka da english, his question makes no sense
[11:16] <TaJMoX> statix : session ... it shouldnt matter that much though, make sure you are burning iso, not burning data disc with an iso file on it
[11:16] <eduhat> corrupt: dont ask me why. it just happens.
[11:17] <BillyBeans> i need help with postfix
[11:17] <eduhat> corrupt: and i dont know how to fix it. lol. i really dont care to tell you the truth
[11:17] <TaJMoX> eduhat : you need to install the correct driver for your card, and your resolution will be fixed

[11:21] <ds0n> meet here only on the site?

[11:21] <ds0n> i do not follow
[11:21] <HorizonXP> SleepingSloth: Any ideas?
[11:21] <bronze> they run standard windows.
[11:21] <TaJMoX> gormih what language do you speak
[11:21] <johnnybuoy> is there anyone familiar with running xen on top of feisty?
[11:21] <wols_> eduhat: dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[11:21] <johnnybuoy> !xen

[11:21] <TaJMoX> gormih if we had an answer for you, you probably wouldn't be able to comprehend it
[11:21] <Chevyman> HorizonXP - 'man crontab' in a term window. does /etc/cron.allow exist?
[11:21] <EnsignRedshirt> Someone in the forums pointed out some dependency weirdness: g++-4.1 depends on libstdc++6-4.1-dev, which depends on g++-4.1.  (There is a similar cycle in dapper with 4.0.) How is that possible?

[11:21] <bronze> vols_: standard windows configuration
[11:21] <TaJMoX> !ubotu
[11:21] <ubotu> I am ubotu, all-knowing infobot. You can browse my brain at http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl - Usage info: http://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuBots
[11:21] <morten_> I guessed as much...
[11:21] <johnnybuoy> I am not sure as to what I need to do to get xen runninf on my feisty system
[11:21] <wols_> bronze: smbtree since you mean smaba/CIFS/SMB
[11:21] <eduhat> wols_: would i select the driver nv?
[11:21] <HorizonXP> Chevyman: No cron.allow
[11:21] <kemik> syslog-ng is the easiest/best way to not spam syslog with iptables logging?
[11:21] <johnnybuoy> my problem is that this is a laptop, and I need support for "special" and "restricted" drivers in the kernel, which, it seems to me, the ubuntu-packaged version of the xen kernels do not have
[11:21] <wols_> eduhat: yes. but that will give you 2d only. but it's enough, for now
[11:21] <johnnybuoy> ?
[11:21] <eduhat> wols_: allright
[11:21] <wols_> kemik: fiy your iptables script
[11:21] <Chevyman> HorizonXP - weird. no errors in the logs either?
[11:21] <HorizonXP> nope
[11:21] <bronze> vols_: I find a lot of computers, but I cannot browse these computers in the standard file browser. Solution?
[11:21] <kemik> wols_: huh?
[11:21] <Chevyman> HorizonXP - are you sure it cron is executing it?
[11:21] <wols_> bronze: //ip/share
[11:21] <johnnybuoy> ?
[11:21] <wols_> kemik: the logs
[11:21] <HorizonXP> Chevyman: Pretty positive. I can get it to write to files
[11:21] <wols_> from iptables
[11:21] <rsa> wols_: how do i change my work group?
[11:21] <Chevyman> HorizonXP - argh.
[11:22] <wols_> rsa: edit /etc/samba/smb.conf
[11:22] <kemik> wols_: i can pipe them to  a file easily or what?
[11:22] <eduhat> wols_: for the resolutions that it asks me to select. are those all the resolutions i can use. or some of them can i not use?
[11:22] <johnnybuoy> so, anyone for a little xen help here?
[11:22] <eduhat> wols_: im still configureing it.
[11:22] <bronze> vols_: What's the command to list the content of a folder in terminal?
[11:22] <HorizonXP> Chevyman: yeah, you're telling me!
[11:22] <wols_> eduhat: you cannot use all of them
[11:22] <SleepingSloth> HorizonXP- sorry about the delay. it's working okay on my machine
[11:22] <wols_> eduhat: it mainly depneds on your monitor
[11:22] <SleepingSloth> HorioznXP - well - not the same script obviously
[11:23] <HorizonXP> SleepingSloth: The whole.... oh right
[11:23] <SleepingSloth> HorizonXP - what did you use to edit the cron?
[11:23] <eduhat> wols_: is it bad if i select one that i cannot use?
[11:23] <eduhat> wols_: the highest i selected was 1600x1200
[11:23] <HorizonXP> SleepingSloth: Yeah, if I change that script to add a line to echo to a file, it works fine... i used crontab -e
[11:23] <eduhat> bronze: wouldnt it be 'ls'
[11:24] <SleepingSloth> ah, I see
[11:24] <nielsbosworth> On the internet i've rad a lot of entries about Sonyericsson K750i being supported in Ubuntu, but it wont work for me. I havent enabled anythin new - is there something obvious i've forgot?
[11:24] <nielsbosworth> read, sorry
[11:24] <sx66> any skype users?
[11:24] <adnan> can anyone tell me when you log in as single user mode what it should say at to log in screen
[11:24] <kemik> wols_: i dont get your answer. is there a simple way to redirect iptables LOG msgs from syslog to some other file ?
[11:24] <tyler_d> hello people... happy fathers day
[11:25] <GNAM> GNAM
[11:25] <johnnybuoy> so: the xen-image-2.6.19-4-server doesn't contain firmware or restricted drivers that I need, it doesn't even contain cpufreq drivers.
[11:25] <SleepingSloth> HorizonXP - and each line works from terminal?
[11:25] <adnan> anyone
[11:25] <Stormx2> sx66: Yeah.
[11:25] <avalon> Is there a way to tell my entire system (audio/flash/etc)  to output all sound to my USB headset?
[11:25] <johnnybuoy> I want to run xen, do I have to roll my own kernel?
[11:25] <HorizonXP> SleepingSloth: Yes
[11:25] <Chevyman> HorizonXP - when you list your crontab, is it there? it should spit out an error otherwise.
[11:25] <HorizonXP> Chevyman: yes
[11:25] <eduhat> brb
[11:25] <bronze> wols: bash: //ip/share: No such file or directory
[11:25] <Stormx2> avalon: Set it as your default alsa device, set alsa as your default mixer.
[11:26] <HorizonXP> Guys, what if those SVN commands aren't being run from the right directory?
[11:26] <Stormx2> avalon: 99% of stuff will work then
[11:26] <HorizonXP> a cd to that directory should be fine right?
[11:26] <avalon> How would I do that Stormx2?

[11:27] <sean_> I have a printer that keeps hanging -- printer icon stays in sys tray after all jobs are done, then no more printing can be done, everything freezes. Any way to reset this without restarting ubuntu?
[11:28] <SoulinEther> Anybody use QEMU here?
[11:28] <tomex> how do I upgrade Skype on Ubuntu?

[11:30] <Trixsey> My links in Feisty doesn't work. When I try to start Azureus it doesn't open (but the executable works), with Eclipse it crashes (referring to Java error, but with executable it works)
[11:30] <Trixsey> Am I doing something wrong when I make them links?
[11:30] <eduhat> allright. the resolution is amazing. 1440x900
[11:30] <Trixsey> I right click -> Make link
[11:30] <errorlevel> I have a problem upgrading from Edgy to Feisty using the Software Updates.  When I click the Upgrade button, I get a dialogue box that says "Could not download the release notes.  Please check your internet connection."  I am currently talking on here on the computer that allegedly has a bad internet connection.  And, installing software for edgy works.  Anybody have any ideas?
[11:30] <HorizonXP> now, i have another question
[11:30] <johnnybuoy> eduhat, why is it amazing?
[11:31] <HorizonXP> if i'm ejecting a USB key.. is there any way to get a script to run BEFORE i eject the key?
[11:31] <HorizonXP> as in, just before it does the umount?
[11:31] <eduhat> because it is soooo much nicer than 1024x768 which was the default before i reconfigured x
[11:31] <johnnybuoy> eduhat, ah!
[11:31] <johnnybuoy> haha
[11:31] <johnnybuoy> I have that resolution, it's native for my lcd... :)
