[07:37] <Alp`> whats the bigger community, gnome or kde? :)

[07:42] <h1st0> Anyone home or is it just this quiet today?
[07:42] <Azzmodan> Any idea how come I have to umount, and then remount my samba shares before they work? Even mount -a works, but should't that mean it should work automatically?
[07:42] <h1st0> Azzmodan: yes
[07:42] <MarcC> rkhunter found some hidden directories it wants me to inspect. How do I "inspect" them?
[07:42] <h1st0> Azzmodan: where are teh at in your /etc/fstab
[07:43] <Azzmodan> h1st0, they don't work though after a reboot, I always have to do umount on both and then mount -a, any idea why?
[07:43] <h1st0> Azzmodan: the only thing I can think is the mount point is availble right off the rip.
[07:43] <h1st0> Azzmodan: How did you set them up?  Did you edit the fstab?  Or did you use gui to do it?
[07:43] <piedoggie> I'm trying to figure out how to start an application inside of a new gnome-terminal and a have gnome-terminal remain up if the application terminates.  It's further complicated by the fact that I'm running my application as root so it can shift to the right userid
[07:43] <Azzmodan> No they are, could it be that it attempts to do samba before the network connection is up?
[07:44] <Azzmodan> I edited fstab
[07:44] <drewzf> Is there a way to do a svn checkout without grabbing the .svn folders?
[07:44] <h1st0> Azzmodan: thats also possible.
[07:45] <Journeyman> anytime I try to play openarena or any other 3D game my computer lags really bad
[07:45] <Azzmodan> Oh, it seems my backup that I had to restore still had smbfs instead of cifs, maybe that's it
[07:45] <Journeyman> it will play for 2secs then lockup for  a min or two
[07:45] <Journeyman> and just stay in that cycle until I exit the game
[07:45] <Journeyman> any idea what could cause that
[07:46] <Journeyman> it used to work fine
[07:46] <Azzmodan> Maybe you switched to the nv driver instead of nvidia or something?
[07:46] <Pici> piedoggie: I believe you can create a new profile in gnome terminal that executes a command, there is also an option in there to keep the terminal open when the command ends.  Then you can run the g-t with `gnome-terminal --window-with-profile=PROFILENAME`
[07:46] <Journeyman> Azer, no, still have nvidia driver

[07:48] <drewzf> can anyone assist me with this?
[07:49] <twosouls82> why does my fstab rule with smbfs work when I do 'sudo mount //server/share', but not at bootup? (I wonder if it is caused by the order of the bootscripts)

[08:00] <Crozar> anything
[08:00] <der0b> how can I omit "." from the output of "find . -maxdepth 1 -type d"?  I'm trying script up creation of archives and it's creating an archive named "..7z"
[08:00] <Crozar> IndyGunFreak: anything / music / files /iso anything
[08:00] <[Thom] > lamego: now how do I change it so the command 'python' executes something different that /usr/local/bin/python ?
[08:00] <noob69> whats a difference between a hub, a switch, and a wireless router
[08:00] <IndyGunFreak> Crozar: doesn't make sense, i've had no issues with my CD/DVDR, and windows/linux boxes.
[08:00] <lamego> [Thom] , you don't, commands are executed by searching on the PATH variable
[08:00] <Crozar> IndyGunFreak: i didnt have issue until 3 days ago i dont know what kind of updates came up about 131 updates
[08:00] <IndyGunFreak> noob69: if i recall, a hub and switch don't basically share a connection, a router does.
[08:00] <lamego> well, you can change the PATH var
[08:00] <Crozar> IndyGunFreak: after the update this bug came up
[08:01] <IndyGunFreak> Crozar: sorry, i have no logical explanation for that.
[08:01] <[Thom] > lamego: Is that in .bashrc ?
[08:01] <wolny> lamego : what about "alternative" program ? ;]
[08:01] <lamego> [Thom] , for the user, yes
[08:01] <recon> If System->Preferences->Desktop Effects doesn't work for me, does that mean compiz-fusion won't work for me if I set it up manually?

[08:07] <scguy318_2> Heman: #ubuntu-effects if that's the case, they probably know more about it
[08:07] <derek_> I just installed a fresh copy of Gutsy tribe 5 (server), I need to mount the 2nd ext2 partition on the same hd.  how do I do that?  how do I even view what partitions are available to mount?
[08:07] <noob69> has anyone use those ethernet devices that you plug to your electrical outlet
[08:07] <tiax> SuperLag: equivs would do that
[08:07] <scguy318_2> SuperLag: there is a concept of a transitional package, but I dunno how to create such a package
[08:08] <scguy318_2> derek_: for the latter, sudo fdisk -l
[08:08] <Heman> scguy: yes I am but its not fully installed yet as I get an error but noone replys in ubuntu-effects
[08:08] <scguy318_2> Heman: what's the error?
[08:09] <derek_> @scguy318_2: I tried that, and it showed nothing
[08:09] <Heman> scguy: when I try to install fusion-icon it says I don't have compizconfig-python and I check and its not there but I have python-compizconfig installed instead...?

[08:10] <PirateHead> How do I set the language as Spanish in OOo?
[08:10] <PirateHead> That is, the spellcheck language?

[08:11] <scguy318_2> Heman: no problem
[08:11] <scguy318_2> Heman: what repo are you using?
[08:11] <tiax> SuperLag: it's the name of the program that creates dummy packages to statisfy dependencies
[08:11] <Heman> scguy: sorry whats a repo again? ubuntu if thats anyhelp
[08:11] <scguy318_2> Heman: you're using official packages?

[08:13] <scguy318_2> Heman: strange, are you Feisty or Gutsy?
[08:13] <Heman> scguy:feisty
[08:13] <scguy318_2> Heman: did you add anything to your sources?
[08:13] <SuperLag> The stock nvidia drivers in the Ubuntu repos will not do 1440x900, but the drivers from nvidia.com will. However, getting those drivers requires getting rid of nvidia-kernel-common. But I don't want to get rid of nvidia-kernel-common's dependencies.
[08:13] <Heman> scguy: sources? Im not sure I just followed the steps on the ubuntu website
[08:14] <Heman> scguy: all effects work but I just no longer have any top to my windows
[08:14] <dynamicss> yes is there anyway that i can have files from my laptop auto sync to my server once a day?

[08:19] <nbkr> zcat[1] , It's in fact very intuative. So you can have spell-checking in multi-language documents.
[08:20] <PirateHead> zcat[1] : that seems to disable spellchecking entirely. It won't mark any words as misspelled, no matter what I type.
[08:20] <coreymon77> PirateHead: did you install the spanish dictionaries?

[08:40] <stdin> Fodev: you need two network interfaces or a router/switch to do that
[08:40] <soundray> Fodev: you need to set up port forwarding on your router, so your router translates your external IP (the one your service provider supplies) to your computer.
[08:40] <genii> nbkr: His box has an external IP which he says is needed. 1 nic. Network apparently on same router/switch in internal range. Simplest wasy to meet his criteria is eth0 alias for LAN

[08:41] <bluefox83> Pici, can we add other screensavers from online?
[08:41] <nbkr> genii, Ah, now I understand. Seems to be a strange network configuration.
[08:41] <Fodev> do i need each boot to write it?
[08:41] <Pici> bluefox83: If you find them. I havent seen anything though.
[08:41] <e\ectro_> how do you silence debconfig ?
[08:42] <nbkr> Fodev, Yes, after a reboot, the secondary IP is lost. You can add it via a init-script or via /etc/network/interfaces.
[08:42] <jorgelinux> hola
[08:42] <nbkr> Fodev, to make it stay.
[08:42] <bluefox83> Pici, i don't suppose ubuntu runs windows type screensavers?

[08:46] <heartsblood> coir: I'm not sure how to manually change the source list in cli :( i'm still a noobie
[08:46] <vlt> DrX: Just an idea: Let the 2nd samba server be an NFS client of the first (or both of a 3rd pure NFS machine).
[08:46] <heartsblood> can I use a life line?
[08:47] <coir> heartsblood: I know how to change the source list, I just don't know which servers to use. :-P

[08:47] <Whinze> Bye all :)
[08:47] <coir> Is there a place to see all the Ubuntu servers on the web?
[08:47] <heartsblood> coir: http://mirror.cc.columbia.edu/pub/linux/ubuntu/archive

[08:47] <preaction> ] easysource | coir, heartsblood
[08:47] <cre8torx> how do i get my damn mp3 player to work
[08:48] <preaction> !easysource | coir, heartsblood
[08:48] <ubotu> coir, heartsblood: source-o-matic is a webpage where you can (re)generate your sources.list - http://www.ubuntu-nl.org/source-o-matic
[08:48] <nicholaspaul> cre8torx: new batteries.
[08:48] <jorgelinux> #Chaco-Corrientes#
[08:48] <vlt> DrX: *much sense*
[08:48] <cre8torx> he
[08:48] <cre8torx> heh
[08:48] <cre8torx> no
[08:48] <nicholaspaul> ...sorry!
[08:48] <cre8torx> that's the only thing i haven't figured out yet?
[08:49] <coir> preaction: That still lists the defalt servers which are goig reallllly slow.
[08:49] <Vlet> cre8torx: What application are you using?
[08:49] <nicholaspaul> I was once able to delete all temp files, inc old kernels, is there are a command to do that?
[08:49] <cre8torx> amarok or rythem
[08:49] <genii> I never understood why there wasn't just some builtin function for regenerating the sources.list without internet access. All info is available, locale, dist etc.
[08:49] <heartsblood> coir: I'll figure this out 1 sec
[08:50] <Vlet> And what kind of mp3 player? Have you tried searching the web to see if those programs support your mp3 player?
[08:50] <chrisjs169> are there any programs that would draw a fair amount of power from my power supply?  I'm trying to see if my power supply is what's wrong with my monitor
[08:50] <Flannel> genii: without internet access, what good would remote entries in sources.list do you?
[08:51] <coir> chrisjs169: It's more a matter of programs using more processing power which in turn would use more power.
[08:51] <Vlet> chrisjs169: Just run a game or something that'll consume 100% of the cpu
[08:51] <cre8torx> phillips GO gear
[08:51] <chrisjs169> coir / Vlet: ok
[08:51] <genii> flannel: Hopefully the function would see no connectivity and be intuitive enough to use apt-cdrom until internet connection is established, commentoing out the locale-appropriate repo entries you will need later
[08:52] <Flannel> genii: the alternate CD install has the cdrom as a repos by default, and it wont complain too much if it can't connect to the internet while updating
[08:52] <cre8torx> sorry philips go gear  HDD82/17
[08:53] <heartsblood> coir: in /etc/apt/sources.list change http://x.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu to http://mirror.cc.columbia.edu/pub/linux/ubuntu/archive/  That's the server I switched to last night when I noticed the slowdown.
[08:53] <genii> Flannel: The majority of users don't install from the alternate, unfortunately
[08:53] <mnemo> I would like to view a movie using my ubuntu laptop and TV-out... when I connect it and switch to AV channel on the TV I don't see anything... is there any special button I need to press to make TV-out work??
[08:54] <pike_> !TVOUT| mnemo
[08:54] <ubotu> mnemo: For help with enabling the TV-Out, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/NvidiaTVOutNewbieEdition (Nvidia cards) or http://wiki.cchtml.com/index.php/Tvout (ATI cards, *untested*)
[08:54] <SVisor> 205 updates, and several "not authenticated".. is this a ok upgrade to 7.10?
[08:54] <Flannel> genii: You can't use the desktop CD as a repository (well, you can, but theres only a half dozen packages on it)
[08:54] <coir> heartsblood: Ok, thanks, I'll see if it speeds things up.
[08:54] <pike_> mnemo: what card btw?
[08:54] <mnemo> Pike_: I got an intel card...
[08:54] <Flannel> SVisor: #ubuntu+1 for Gutsy support, thanks
[08:55] <heartsblood> coir: I just downloaded OO.org at around ~2.7MBps =)
[08:55] <mr_toast> can someone help me out, Firestarter wont work none of the dhcp devices (etho 0/1) is being accepted.. I have installed dhcp but i cant seem to get firestarter to work with it. what can i do?
[08:55] <SVisor> Flannel: ok.. did not know that that one existed :-=
[08:55] <pike_> mnemo: not sure with intel card but i810 should work very well  just not sure how to set it up ive only really used twinview and such
[08:55] <genii> Flannel: At any rate it just occured to me why should it be neccesary to need to go to source-o-matic etc at all in the first place
[08:56] <mr_toast> my DHCP server seems  to be acting up i think it is not properly configured... can someone guide me here on what to do?#
[08:56] <SangueVivo> hi
[08:56] <Flannel> genii: It's not, unless you somehow screw up your sources.list, and can't use software sources to recreate it

[08:57] <hazman> I know that virus' and adware generally aren't written on a terribly common basis to attack linux, and i know of a few people who run debian without any virus scanners etc.. is there much of a point getting a virus scanner and such for ubuntu?
[08:57] <heartsblood> whats the channel for compiz help, desktop-effects?
[08:57] <niter3> hazman: not really
[08:58] <SpiderPig> how do i remove a app i installed?
[08:58] <niter3> hazman: I've been running linux for 3-4 years without a virus scanner and have never got a virus
[08:58] <SpiderPig> sudo apt-get uninstall ?
[08:58] <niter3> SpiderPig: apt-get remove appname
[08:58] <heartsblood> SpiderPig: sudo apt-get remove FuBar
[08:58] <SpiderPig> niter3 thanks
[08:58] <hazman> sweet; thanks niter3
[08:58] <mr_toast> how to configure DHCP?
[08:59] <nbkr> mr_toast, server or client?
[08:59] <silent> mr_toast, man interfaces, man ifconfig
[08:59] <niter3> mr_toast: Up corner right you should see the network icon. Go in there. Or somewhere under admin/sytem prefs
[08:59] <niter3> silent: Give them the easier way. geez.
[08:59] <punzada> anyone know how to setup windows in compiz to load with a specific opacity setting? I don't know the correct value to put it for 'opacity window'
[08:59] <silent> niter3, I don't know the easier way ;P I got rid of that crappy applet
[09:00] <dwxreaper> should get freenx ready for a package to be included in the main repositories
[09:00] <dwxreaper> vnc is horrible
[09:00] <Blackgoth> Is there any way to kick flash in using /dev/video0?
[09:00] <mr_toast> see im trying to get firestarter working the dhcp seems to be acting funny so i have to set it up it shouldve been done automatically
[09:00] <DM|> Can anyone link me a website where i can download the default rhythmbox plugins?
[09:00] <niter3> dwxreaper: I use it all the time. What's so horrible about it?
[09:00] <coir> Does anyone know of a good alternative to webmin?
[09:00] <dwxreaper> niter: to slow, 300ms delay
[09:00] <cre8torx> every time I plug in my usb mp3player it reads it as a camera
[09:00] <Blackgoth> coir: they say a bash shell will do ;)
[09:01] <niter3> dwxreaper: I've found it to be a lot faster then RDP.
[09:01] <dwxreaper> niter: rdp is faster, than vnc, it works totally different
[09:01] <niter3> dwxreaper: I've never seen the difference man..
[09:02] <dwxreaper> niter: that doesn't mean there isn't one
[09:02] <Shadow_mil> wow big open office update -_-
[09:02] <dwxreaper> it means you don't see it
[09:02] <niter3> dwxreaper: vnc works better for me.
[09:02] <lamego> niter3, RDP is faster, there is a great difference on the protocol
[09:02] <niter3> dwxreaper: I rather not depend on remote procedure call ...
[09:02] <dwxreaper> it is over ssh..
[09:03] <dwxreaper> anyways, it would be nice to have freenx as part of ubuntu by default
[09:03] <Blackgoth> Is there any way to kick flash in using /dev/video0?
[09:03] <heartsblood> !compiz
[09:03] <ubotu> Compiz (compositing window manager) and XGL (X server architecture layered on top of OpenGL) - Howto at http://help.ubuntu.com/community/CompositeManager - Help in #ubuntu-effects
[09:03] <niter3> Blackgoth: what?
[09:03] <niter3> Blackgoth: X windows uses video0. Flash just runs on top.
[09:04] <Blackgoth> niter3: i want flash to use /dev/video0 as a webcam device
[09:04] <niter3> it's a freeking browser plugin
[09:04] <pavel> if i leave my desktop untouched for a while, when i get back the sound doesnt work
[09:04] <cyph3x> my sound and wifi died after i let my computer out of hibernation
[09:04] <cyph3x> any ideas?
[09:04] <niter3> cyph3x: haha .. Hibernation blows .. Linux has always had that trouble in that department.
[09:05] <genii> coir: There is as of yet no all-in-one web-based administration tool which could replace webmin.
[09:05] <niter3> cyph3x: But sometimes you can initate services to restart upon boot of hibernation
[09:05] <niter3> cyph3x: sound, wifi, etc..
[09:06] <genii> coir: If you are running some larger user system like a webserver or so, there are some tools like ISPConfig or Cpanel
[09:06] <Pskol__> anyone understand about reverse dns?
[09:06] <genii> coir: But they do not have things like disk admin or so on as webmin did
[09:07] <Blinny> Hi - New Gutsy Beta install downloaded today. After install the 3c905b NIC isn't found. lspci and lsmod shows the card and the 3c59x module, but ifconfig says you device. Any ideas?
[09:07] <Mr_WAMU> Does anyone have any docs on how to compile src?
[09:07] <pavel> when i log in from a screen saver, sound doesnt work
[09:07] <maestrojed> i have just installed php5 on my ubuntu box.  Some functions that use sendmail are not sending mail yet not returning any errors.  Does the default installation of PHP5 built for Ubuntu disable sendmail in any way?
[09:07] <amarillion> I've got a laptop that doesn't want to boot the new gutsy beta live CD. It just hangs in the middle. Is there any way I can find at what stage it hangs, so I can file  a more useful bug report?
[09:07] <IndyGunFreak> !compile | Mr_WAMU
[09:07] <ubotu> Mr_WAMU: Compiling software from source? Read the tips at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CompilingSoftware (But remember to search for pre-built !packages first: not all !repositories are enabled by default!)
[09:07] <amarillion> As it is, it just hangs and there is no way I can find out what went wrong
[09:08] <amarillion> Also safe graphics mode doesn't work
[09:08] <Blinny> amarillion: alt+f4 ?
[09:08] <eAi2000> Hi all - I've just restarted my computer and suddenly I can't access an NTFS partition that exists on the same USB external hard disk as the ubuntu partition - anyone got any ideas how I can debug this? It's worked fine for the last few months...
[09:09] <Hilikus> what can of (good) software is there for mp3 servers?? i want to be able to stream locally at full quality but also stream externally at lower, in case i want to listen to my music from somewhere else. what would you guys recommend?
[09:09] <amarillion> Blinny: what does that do?
[09:09] <Mr_WAMU> Indygunfreak: Is compiling from source the same as src?
[09:09] <Blinny> amarillion: Shows you the console.
[09:09] <pavel> hilikus: theres gnump3d and ampache
[09:09] <IndyGunFreak> Mr_WAMU: i'm not real sure, I don't have a lot of experience with it...
[09:09] <Hilikus> pavel ok, ill check them, thanks
[09:09] <IndyGunFreak> i don't think so though
[09:09] <Shapeshifter> I'd like "vpn-disconnect" to be run automatically when I hit the shutdown button. Is there a shutdownscript of somekind where I can add that line?
[09:10] <pavel> hilikus: np, but i should tell you that this sort of thing isnt too easy
[09:10] <Hilikus> why??
[09:10] <pavel> does anyone know why my sound would work after my computers goes into a screensaver?
[09:10] <pavel> Hiliikus: compiling and setting up time and effort. make sure u understand the terminal
[09:11] <Mr_WAMU> I have a program called Enginuity.src.zip does it have to be in my home folder to be compiled? and it doesn't have a make file or anything
[09:11] <Hilikus> pavel maybe something is released when it goes to SS, or something is re-attached when back from SS
[09:11] <feo> hi
[09:11] <pavel> Mr_wamu it has to be unzipped, doesnt matter where
[09:11] <Hilikus> i work as netadmin, i think ill handle it (hopefully)
[09:11] <eltese> hi! Im gonna install ubuntu on my fairly new computer (a stationary one)... And I wonder if its best to run Feisty Fawn and wait 13 days for the Gutsy release? Its pretty simple just to update, right? :)
[09:11] <Hornet--> silent: I managed to sort the boot issue in the end. :)
[09:11] <pavel> Hilikus: its possible, but i have no idea why it would do that
[09:12] <Hilikus> check the logs
[09:12] <silent> Hornet--, that's good, what happened?
[09:12] <Hornet--> silent: adding irqpoll to the boot options sorted it
[09:12] <Mr_WAMU> Pavel I did unzip I just don't know how to start compiling it
[09:12] <silent> Hornet--, kewl, the weird pause is gone?
[09:12] <pavel> eltese feisty works pretty fine, and gutsy and feisty arent too different
[09:12] <Hornet--> silent: Indeed, all two minutes of it. :)
[09:13] <silent> Hornet--, good to hear
[09:13] <Blinny> Mr_WAMU: start terminal, go into that directory and check the 'readme', or './configure' or 'make'
[09:13] <pavel> Mr_wamu you need to cd to that folder. do u understand the terminal?
[09:13] <Kronos> hi ya guyz, i was installing ubuntu just now and i was warned that i havent set any swap area space, i was wondering just how important is this on a system with 2 GB of memory...i'm stoped in that screen now i dono wether to go back and set some swap space or continue without any
[09:13] <silent> Hornet--, how did you find the solution... out of curiosity
[09:13] <EviL_SmUrF> Hey guys, I just installed the Tahoma font into ubuntu and set it to be used for everything. However, for some reason some applications are not obeying that. How can I fix this problem? I am using gnome
[09:13] <Mr_WAMU> Pavel Yes
[09:13] <Hornet--> silent: Lots of reading, it turned up on the Mint forums in the end.
[09:13] <Hornet--> silent: it's an Ubuntu issue though. :P
[09:13] <silent> I see
[09:13] <Mr_WAMU> Pavel there is no make or ./configure file in the program
[09:13] <eltese> pavel : Yes I know =) But Im gonna update anyways when gutsy comes.. So my question is this : Is it worth downloading the beta or should I install feisty first??
[09:14] <silent> Hornet--, hehe, odd that it would appear there
[09:14] <mr_toast> is there an app in ubuntu that is efficient in time management? if there is please tell me :3
[09:14] <dwxreaper> outlook
[09:14] <pavel> Mr_Wamu go to the ubuntu pastebin and show me the contents by typing ls in a terminal cd'ed to that folder
[09:14] <Hornet--> silent: Well, it still affects Mint users too.
[09:14] <silent> Hornet--, I see. is it a hardware or software issue?
[09:15] <cyph3x> would osmeone point in the right direction abou tlearning how to use/install beryl?
[09:15] <Mr_WAMU> Pavel: I cd /home/moneyman/src changed sucessful
[09:15] <Hornet--> silent: Apparently it's to do with mixups in the BIOS
[09:15] <Pskol__> Kronos: if you have 2gb of memory you dont need to create a swap partition
[09:15] <Hornet--> silent: IRQs being misplaced and misallocated etc
[09:15] <pavel> eltese: 7.10 is feisty, im pretty sure of it, so gutsy is basiclyy outdated as i recall
[09:15] <Mr_WAMU> root@moneyman1-desktop:~# cd /home/moneyman/src
[09:15] <Mr_WAMU> root@moneyman1-desktop:/home/moneyman/src#
[09:15] <pavel> Mr_WAMU type cd ../ and there should a confifgure file
[09:15] <Blackgoth> pavel: Wrong, 7.10 is gutsy
[09:16] <EviL_SmUrF> Hey guys, I just installed the Tahoma font into ubuntu and set it to be used for everything. However, for some reason some applications are not obeying that. How can I fix this problem? I am using gnome

[09:16] <Hornet--> silent: in other news, I'm now trying to get Photoshop CS3 running under Linux, by any means possible. :P
[09:16] <Shapeshifter> I'd like "vpn-disconnect" to be run automatically when I hit the shutdown button. Is there a shutdownscript of somekind where I can add that line?
[09:16] <Hornet--> silent: Any suggestions as to what to try first?

[09:16] <Kronos> Pskol__: thank you, tought so as well... since i've never ever noticed it using more than the odd 1GB of usage while playing games anyway...

[09:17] <mr_toast> im looking for an app that will help manage my time when next to a pc... an app that I can set tasks to do on the pc based on time period etc. Is there such an app for ubuntu?
[09:17] <pavel> MR_wamu no first cd ../ thatll bring u up a directory, and in the moneyman directory should be a configure file
[09:17] <Hornet--> cyph3x, heh, fair enough.  What've you tried?
[09:17] <Mr_WAMU> cd
[09:18] <silent> Hornet--, those IRQs tend to do that ;)
[09:18] <pavel> eltes: personally if i have a working computer, id wait
[09:18] <silent> Hornet--, as far as photoshop is concerned, I would try installing via wine and importing windows dlls as necessary. Most linux users wouldn't support this method, but whatever it takes
[09:19] <eltese> pavel: Ok, thanks =)
[09:19] <cyph3x> Hornet--: i havent diligently tried anything-- i have gotten used to using gimp. but when i was interested i tried it in wine and i had the feeling i wouldve been able to get it if i dropped a couple hours of itme in it
[09:19] <pavel> blackgoth: upgrading remove all apps?
[09:20] <bluefox83> where does xscreen-saver keep it's config files?>
[09:20] <Hornet--> silent: fair enough, thanks... wish me luck. :\
[09:20] <silent> Hornet--, as cyph3x said, gimp is also a nice program, though if you're used to photoshop you will most likely need photoshop
[09:20] <silent> Hornet--, as a last resort you could get a cedega license and it should run it
[09:20] <Hornet--> silent: It's compatibility issues, I need Photoshop for collaboration.
[09:20] <Mr_WAMU> pavel: root@moneyman1-desktop:~# ls -a /home/moneyman/src/enginuity

[09:20] <a7p> hi everyone - anyone using a working two-screen-setup? I just tried using two monitors with gusty and nothing works correctly.
[09:20] <heartsblood> is it possible to tell apt to install packages AND suggestions?
[09:21] <Hornet--> silent: and besides, photoshop is somewhat better than the Gimp.
[09:21] <niter3> silent: It's call vmware
[09:21] <Hornet--> silent: The Gimp's good, but doesn't cut photoshop's level of mustard.
[09:21] <niter3> or better yet. Wine.
[09:21] <niter3> Hornet--: But remember that's also a commerical product that's backed with millions and millions of dollars.
[09:22] <silent> niter3, i recommended wine, but yes vmware should run it, if a bit resource-heavy
[09:22] <pavel> Mr_WAMU: is moneyman the application you are trying to compile?
[09:22] <Hornet--> niter3: I know, that's why it's better. :P
[09:22] <heartsblood> Hornet--: I would disagree on the grounds that any program is only as good as the person using it.
[09:22] <Mr_WAMU> no its /home/moneyman/src/enginuity
[09:22] <niter3> silent: it's not bad at all. With now todays standard of RAM and such. It's not big deal at all.
[09:22] <Hornet--> heartsblood: fair enough, try making websites with MSpaint then.
[09:22] <van> hi guys i installed kbuntu, but i cannot acces to root under shell.
[09:22] <van> someone know the reason
[09:22] <Hornet--> heartsblood: have fun. :)
[09:22] <niter3> Hornet--: If you want to pay that $600. I rather free software.
[09:22] <Mr_WAMU> enginuity is the prog
[09:22] <heartsblood> Hornet--: I'm also not suicidal.
[09:22] <Hornet--> niter3, same tbh.
[09:23] <Blackgoth> pavel: dunno, i just installed it
[09:23] <DShepherd> van, sudo -i maybe?
[09:23] <pavel> Mr_WAMU do you know what programming language its written in?
[09:23] <pavel> blackgoth:ty
[09:23] <Mr_WAMU> java
[09:23] <Hornet--> niter3, but the point remains that there's nothing comparable, and I need that level of functionality.
[09:23] <silent> Hornet--, I believe the wine developers have their own repositories you can add to your sources.list and get the latest build straight through aptitude
[09:23] <niter3> Hornet--: what the hell does tbh suppose to mean. Is this one of your made up acrynoms ?
[09:23] <van> DShepherd: oh it work thanks yo
[09:23] <silent> niter3, to be honest
[09:23] <van> DShepherd: i tried su
[09:23] <niter3> Hornet--: then fuck off and use windows. :)
[09:23] <DShepherd> van, ok.. kool
[09:23] <DShepherd> !language
[09:23] <ubotu> Please watch your language and keep this channel family friendly.
[09:24] <LinuxJuggalo> niter3: please watch your language
[09:24] <Hornet--> niter3, what the heck? 'my' acronyms?
[09:24] <niter3> Sorry for the language.
[09:24] <silent> niter3, just don't sweaar
[09:24] <lamego> niter3, please have some respect, there is some comercial software which does not have a comparable open source, we open source supports don't like it, but it's true
[09:24] <silent> Hornet--, what did you say? :P
[09:24] <pavel> anyone know if updating to gutsy wipes your apps?
[09:24] <`assioma`> hi, i've a problem with my bluetooth headset: i manage to connett it to the pc, but if i try to do a skype or ekiga call the system freezes. Never heard about it?
[09:24] <rapiecer> hello is there a unison user ?
[09:25] <DShepherd> pavel, i dont think so... but all gutsy concerns should be asked in #ubuntu+1
[09:25] <Hornet--> silent, 'tbh', which apparently he'd not heard of.
[09:25] <Mr_WAMU> pavel: how do I compile java?
[09:25] <silent> niter3, if you think gimp is at the same level as photoshop, you are sorely mistaken and your pride in open source software is clouding your judgement
[09:25] <lamego> Mr_WAMU, usually complex java apps have a build file
[09:25] <LinuxJuggalo> !gutsy | pavel

[09:25] <rapiecer> i need help with synchronizing using ubunu
[09:25] <pavel> DShephered: o ty
[09:25] <niter3> silent: ZThat should be directed to me ..
[09:25] <IndyGunFreak> Mr_WAMU: you shoudlnt' really need to, its in the repos as far as i know
[09:25] <DShepherd> pavel, no problem
[09:25] <IndyGunFreak> !java
[09:25] <ubotu> To install a Java compiler/interpreter on Ubuntu, look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Java - For the Sun Java runtime install sun-java5-jre from the !Multiverse repository. Enable the backports repository on Edgy to install sun-java6-jre
[09:25] <niter3> silent: That reponse should be directed to Hornet-- .
[09:26] <heartsblood> Am I blind or is there really no option that will force apt to install 'recomended/suggested' packages?  I'm almost positive i've done it before
[09:26] <Mr_WAMU> The program is Enginuity... I got it from sourceforge... no make file
[09:26] <silent> gimp is nowhere near as good as photoshop. it is very good, being a free solution

[09:26] <Blackgoth> silent: who needs photoshop anyway? :P
[09:26] <`assioma`> hi, i've a problem with my bluetooth headset: i manage to connett it to the pc, but if i try to do a skype or ekiga call the system freezes. Never heard about it?
[09:26] <silent> Blackgoth, people with jobs in photo editing
[09:26] <silent> Blackgoth, i would assume
[09:26] <Blackgoth> that would suck wouldnt it?
[09:26] <Mr_WAMU> Hahaha mental health insitute
[09:27] <Hornet--> Blackgoth, and serious website development.
[09:27] <rapiecer> nobody using unison ?
[09:27] <silent> Hornet--, but yeah, try wine. try vmware, then if you absolutely need photoshop... try cedega
[09:27] <niter3> I've never dug into Gimp enough to be able to make such a comparison, but I'd imagine if Photoshop is better it's probably the fact that the software is backed up with millions of dollars.
[09:27] <DShepherd> silent, Blackgoth please... go to #ubuntu-offtopic... please to talk about gimp and photoshop. this is a support channel. niter3 you too
[09:27] <Blackgoth> silent: cedega? dude! thats a old winex version that just suks!
[09:27] <lamego> Mr_WAMU, they provide .jar files, you can execute those
[09:27] <silent> niter3, precisely, the amount of money and manpower poured into photoshop is what makes it superior
[09:27] <lamego> java -jar file.jar
[09:27] <niter3> Hornet--: And like I mentioned earlier as well, wine or vmware.
[09:27] <munk__> can somebody help me configure my xorg because i cant seem to get it working at all..
[09:27] <cyph3x> ok since i cant seem to fid anyone with an answer either here or on the forums... how would i figure out whats wrong so tha ti can make a bug report?
[09:27] <lamego> assuming you have the JRE installed
[09:27] <Mr_WAMU> Photoshop is by far better than GIMP
[09:28] <pavel> Mr_WAMU are java and java developement installed?
[09:28] <silent> Blackgoth, it is very much new
[09:28] <silent> Blackgoth, it was winex, but it is still under development, doing better than wine last I heard
[09:28] <LinuxJuggalo> niter3: its sad but true the gimp does not compare to the quality of photoshop
[09:28] <Mr_WAMU> Yeah
[09:28] <Psyber> hello everyon
[09:28] <Blackgoth> I prefer wine from the winehq site anyway. faster. better support
[09:28] <Mr_WAMU> I have a java console
[09:28] <Mr_WAMU> I have java installed
[09:28] <silent> Blackgoth, not faster, not better support, free
[09:28] <Mr_WAMU> No jar files
[09:28] <lamego> Mr_WAMU, download the jar version
[09:28] <Mr_WAMU> They are ALL .java
[09:29] <niter3> Hornet--: May I ask, I'm guesing the level of photo manipulating you're doing obviously has to be done at Photoshop?
[09:29] <lamego> there is a .jar for 0.4 RC 2
[09:29] <sebas891> any idea why, the boot process get stuck at 5.94000 time: acpi_pm clocksource has been installed.
[09:29] <Mr_WAMU> Its only came in a .src.zip
[09:29] <Blackgoth> silent: so you can see if my wine is faster or slower than cedega? wow you are good!
[09:29] <Psyber> silly question, it should be possible to install multiple linux GUIs at the same time correct?
[09:29] <pavel> Mr_WAMU btw u should check if a deb package exsists for ur application/program
[09:29] <Hornet--> niter3, if you'd followed the conversation you'd see that it's mostly for interoperability.
[09:29] <lamego> Psyber, yes, it should
[09:29] <silent> Blackgoth, is your wine any different from any other wine? is yours jesus-powered?
[09:29] <Mr_WAMU> I tried synaptic
[09:30] <Blackgoth> Psyber: yes, you can run more than one windows manager
[09:30] <Mr_WAMU> I got nothing
[09:30] <Blackgoth> *install
[09:30] <`assioma`> hi, i've a problem with my bluetooth headset: i manage to connett it to the pc, but if i try to do a skype or ekiga call the system freezes. Never heard about it?
[09:30] <Hornet--> niter3, but yes, some of the things I'm trying to do would be far harder in the gimp
[09:30] <niter3> Hornet--: But again, that isn't a reason not to run linux. Photoshop is an application that runs on top of the OS. You have wine and other alternatives to get photoshop up and working. So don't assume just because Gimp doesn't compare to photoshop that is a reason to chump out of using Ubuntu/Linux .
[09:30] <lamego> Mr_WAMU, I am seeing the sourceforge site myself, you have .jar files there
[09:30] <Hornet--> niter3, and downright impossible in places
[09:30] <ivan_> hi, how do i pabstein,in what website?
[09:30] <Mr_WAMU> Yeah?
[09:30] <pavel> Mr_wamu https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Java
[09:30] <Blackgoth> again silent, _my_ experiance with cedega is that is it slower than wine from winehq directly.
[09:30] <Mr_WAMU> Under Enginuity?
[09:30] <Psyber> lamego: Blackgoth  have either of you done this?  IF so did you have any problems?
[09:30] <dgjones> !paste | ivan_
[09:30] <ubotu> ivan_: 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)
[09:30] <silent> Blackgoth, to each his own
[09:30] <lamego> niter3, could you shutup with that gimp vs PS debate ?
[09:31] <lamego> Psyber, I did have KDE and GNOME on the past
[09:31] <Hornet--> niter3, where are you reading this from?  Why do you think I'm trying to get it working in Linux in the first place?
[09:31] <silent> niter3, he's using linux.. hes in a linux channel trying to get it to run on linux
[09:31] <cyph3x> in regards to the PS v Gimp debate. you have to consider what youre getting for what you pay for...
[09:31] <silent> niter3, when did windows come into it?
[09:31] <LinuxJuggalo> !wine | Hornet--
[09:31] <ubotu> Hornet--: wine is a compatibility layer for running Windows programs on GNU/Linux. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Wine for more information.
[09:31] <Blackgoth> Psyber: i had kde and gnome running, only problem was the amount of junk i got with kde
[09:32] <Psyber> lamego: that is what I am trying to do.  Did you just install both of them or is there a trick to doing it?  How did you select which WM you want to run?
[09:32] <dbrewer_rjr> i just took my feisty server to the server farm and it would not go on the network there. It was fine here. I changed the /etc/network/interfaces file just before i powered down and drove it over. Both me and the net admin over at the farm looked at the file and the settings were correct.
[09:32] <cyph3x> are the 5 additional features in PS worth the 500 bucks?
[09:32] <niter3> I was wondering, does Gnome have alternatives for KDE's popup calendar reminders?
[09:32] <Blackgoth> Psyber: the login window will let you choose
[09:32] <heartsblood> what exactly is the difference between beryl and compiz?
[09:32] <lamego> Psyber, the graphical desktop manager allowed me to select the WM at login
[09:32] <LinuxJuggalo> cyph3x: no
[09:32] <lamego> the login manager
[09:32] <nickrud> niter3: I use evolution, it has calendar reminders
[09:32] <cyph3x> then use Gimp... ;-)
[09:32] <Psyber> Cool, I take it I can install the WM from symantic?
[09:32] <heartsblood> compiz = window effects, beryl desltop effects?
[09:32] <lamego> Psyber, yes you can
[09:33] <niter3> heartsblood: Compiz is the core of the functioning and Beryl is the additonal software that runs with Compiz. Compiz-Fusion is the new Beryl so to speak
[09:33] <Zorlin> no....
[09:33] <LinuxJuggalo> cyph3x: i do use gimp ;p
[09:33] <Zorlin> Actually Beryl was a fork of Compiz...
[09:33] <Psyber> does anyone know how to get alltray to work with beryl?
[09:33] <heartsblood> niter3: yea i've been reading about the 'merger' just wasn't sure what the difference between the 2 were
[09:33] <dbrewer_rjr> HELP!! i just took my feisty server to the server farm and it would not go on the network there. It was fine here. I changed the /etc/network/interfaces file just before i powered down and drove it over. Both me and the net admin over at the farm looked at the file and the settings were correct.
[09:33] <Zorlin> ...Technically Compiz was the base for the code; but the whole package was referred to as Beryl
[09:33] <Zorlin> Compiz Fusion is a result of the re-merger.
[09:33] <niter3> nickrud: Yes but you need to have that application running at all times. Not that the KDE reminders you odn't have to, but it sits by your clock in the taskbar by default. It's sort of integrated into KDE but not Mozilla's software.
[09:34] <heartsblood> niter3: I tried 'compiz' once before but I lost all my title bars.  It made closing windows a bit of a pain.  I wanted to try it again because of all the hype but i'm not really sure what I should get to avoid my previous troubles.
[09:34] <niter3> nickrud: That's the alternative I'm looking for.
[09:34] <ivan_> could someone look at my pabstein and help me??? here is the url http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/39692/
[09:35] <nickrud> niter3: evo has the evolution-alarm-notify, I am under the impression that as long as that's running, calendar alarms will still appear
[09:35] <niter3> heartsblood: Well there is the fact that the software has matured more. There is also very good support/tutorial websites to guide you in. Plus if you mess up, you can always back track. If you need help jump on IRC. Install yourself irssi.
[09:35] <Shapeshifter> I'd like "vpn-disconnect" to be run automatically when I hit the shutdown button. Is there a shutdownscript of somekind where I can add that line?
[09:35] <Psyber> does anyone know how to get alltray to work with beryl / compiz
[09:35] <heartsblood> irssi?
[09:36] <ivan_> did someone watched it??
[09:36] <niter3> heartsblood: IRC client that runs from the console. Just in case your render X useless. This way you can have members help you restore.
[09:36] <munk__> can someone tell me how do i install cyrillic font again cuz i took it off by "accident" not knowing i need it
[09:36] <wood1> what is the channel for ubuntu 7.10 please?
[09:36] <heartsblood> ah, no worries I use bitchx for console stuff and I'm a pro at breaking X :>
[09:36] <Psyber> anyone in here use linspire?
[09:36] <dbrewer_rjr> HELP!! i just took my feisty server to the server farm and it would not go on the network there. It was fine here. I changed the /etc/network/interfaces file just before i powered down and drove it over. Both me and the net admin over at the farm looked at the file and the settings were correct.
[09:37] <nickrud> dbrewer_rjr: have you watched /var/log/syslog for messages when ifup/downing the interface?
[09:37] <kurisutofuaa> I question about a installing ubuntu with a grub loader already on the computer will it over-write my previous grub entries or will keep them?
[09:38] <ivan_> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/39692/ someon please help me
[09:38] <gorlak> how do you tell who all are admins' in the channel?
[09:38] <dbrewer_rjr> no :(
[09:38] <wood1> is ubuntu 7.10 support here?
[09:38] <nickrud> kurisutofuaa: with the alternate cd, you can choose not to overwrite the mbr; live install I'm not sure of
[09:38] <dbrewer_rjr> i finally had to leave the farm. I will be going back as soon as they will let me.
[09:39] <nickrud> gorlak: you can ask on #ubuntu-ops
[09:39] <nickrud> wood1: no, #ubuntu+1
[09:40] <wood1> thank you nickrud
[09:40] <nvrpunk> question, I tossed the source.list to gutsy repos and distro-upgraded and now suddenly i can no longer SSH into the box remotely
[09:40] <nvrpunk> anyone familiar with this?
[09:41] <uh_buntu> I just dual booted ubuntu6.06LTS with windows2000pro. I have microcom AD2636 ROUTER but using usb. Network card broken. UBUNTU doesn't recognize internet connectuion. What to do?
[09:41] <ivan_> when i try to update i get an error and i cant open it and i also get an errror opening synaptic. Could someone help me please??
[09:42] <nickrud> ivan_: could you put the output of aptitude update on a pastebin?
[09:42] <nickrud> ivan_: sudo*
[09:42] <groushack> hi alll
[09:42] <Filthpig> Can somebody tell me why I can't run azureus from the repos? It just doesn't start...
[09:43] <aguitel> uh_buntu: ubuntu does no t work fine with usb internet connection ,fix your ethernet card
[09:43] <ivan_> nickrud, i get this error. http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/39694/
[09:43] <nickrud> Filthpig: did you install sun java?
[09:43] <MishaBear> hello
[09:43] <ivan_> nickrud, thats the pabstein
[09:44] <nickrud> ivan_: simple fix, a sec
[09:44] <Filthpig> nickrud: I've got several :P
[09:44] <ivan_> nickrud, ok thanks
[09:44] <Filthpig> shouldn't apt take care of that anyway?
[09:44] <MishaBear> need a big help... I am a bit on a budget, and I need a laptop. I have two systems to choose from, both with 2GB of RAM and 120GB HDD - the problem is the CPU - one has a Sempron 3600, the other a  64 X2 TK53
[09:44] <MishaBear> I know the second i sbetter
[09:44] <MrObvious> .
[09:44] <nickrud> Filthpig: sudo update-alternatives --config java , make sure it's a sun :)
[09:44] <MishaBear> but what's the actual difference in performance on ubuntu?
[09:44] <MrObvious> MishaBear: Just get the dual core. It'll perform better with more future proofing you might say.
[09:45] <_bt> hello, i upgraded to ubuntu gutsy and my network device has changed to eth1 from 0, how can i change it back?
[09:45] <MishaBear> ok thanks
[09:45] <MrObvious> MishaBear: YW. Also more and more programs are becoming dual core optimized.
[09:45] <Filthpig> nickrud: always sun ;)
[09:45] <MishaBear> ah I see, ok thanks
[09:45] <aguitel> _bt: why you what it back
[09:45] <MrObvious> YW.
[09:45] <MishaBear> cannot wait to check ubuntu on this system
[09:46] <nickrud> ivan_: http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/debian-26/dynamic-mmap-ran-out-of-room-error-when-adding-new-apt-source-list-233417/ , the answer from leonscape
[09:46] <_bt> because i have some things bridged to eth0 and also a static ip setup
[09:46] <MishaBear> it comes with Vista preinstalled, and we have no option to remove the license in my country
[09:46] <ivan_> nickrud, ill try it thanks
[09:46] <gorlak> question: if i had a program running under wine, and it froze to thepoint of not being able to turn it off, how would i go about forcing the application to close?
[09:46] <MishaBear> too bad, but I do not care - I am forced to work on Vista on another machine, and it's been a nightmare so far, regardless of what everybody else is saying
[09:46] <Filthpig> nickrud: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/39696/
[09:47] <aguitel> gorlak: kill wine
[09:47] <gorlak> i tried using the kill (pid) but it didnt do anything
[09:47] <nickrud> Filthpig: choose the 1.5, I'm pretty sure that 1.4 is still blackdown :)
[09:47] <nickrud> not sun, heh
[09:47] <xqq>
[09:48] <MishaBear> one question more, sorry - I have been working with Photoshop, and owning the license, for the latest 5 years - I like GIMP, but I am much faster with PS - will it be possible to run it in some way on Ubuntu or I'd better let go?
[09:48] <nickrud> !cn | xqq

[09:48] <gorlak> yes it was listed as 5952, when i use the top -u username command
[09:49] <aguitel> gorlak: type ps aux
[09:49] <Filthpig> nickrud: hummmmmmmmmm, now it runs, but after starting up and showing some informational message it just closes
[09:49] <gorlak> did that and it lists the same pid number

[09:50] <nickrud> Filthpig: not a real expert on java & azureus, you might want to try the java6
[09:50] <gorlak> so it should be kill pid correct?
[09:51] <tmccrary> I have a new mac keyboard and when I push the eject button... my theme changes in Gnome
[09:51] <aguitel> gorlak: yes
[09:51] <Dralock> tmccrary thats awesome!

[09:52] <vulcanius> nickrud, write something to do that, everyone would love you
[09:52] <MrObvious> xcst: About what? There's an offtopic channel for #ubuntu.
[09:52] <aguitel> l
[09:52] <gorlak> still listed in the ps aux
[09:52] <MrObvious> !offtopic
[09:52] <ubotu> #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome!

[09:52] <gorlak> under the same pid
[09:52] <MrObvious> xcst: Just ask the question.
[09:52] <tmccrary> Dralock: Oh I know, deciding is killing me ;)
[09:52] <LinuxJuggalo> roots: what language are you fluent?
[09:52] <Dralock> gorlak: If you want to stop something that bad, use the killall -9 <name of process> command.
[09:52] <roots> portuguese
[09:52] <roots> do you understend
[09:52] <roots> ?
[09:53] <tmccrary> The eject button must mean "Eject current theme"
[09:53] <Dralock> hah!
[09:53] <xcst> when i installed beryl. just for a while it works fine, but after downloading the codeces for video formats for windows, beryl didnt worked anymore
[09:53] <Dralock> If you hit it twice does it revert?
[09:53] <tmccrary> hmm, xev doesn't even respond when I it one of the keys (the meta key to the right of the space bar)
[09:53] <aguitel> gorlak: do that Dralock SAY
[09:53] <LinuxJuggalo> roots: sorry i do not, but you can find an ubuntu support channel in your language
[09:53] <roots> ok!

[09:54] <kjp> Is there anything like mythtv for gnome ?
[09:54] <nickrud> tmccrary: do tail -f /var/log/syslog , and watch that terminal while you press the key
[09:54] <roots> ubotu ....................
[09:54] <roots> obrigado pela dica...
[09:54] <roots> thank's ;)
[09:54] <vocx> xcst, video codecs and video don't play nicely.
[09:54] <Bender1337> he is a bot
[09:54] <Kronos> guyz... uhmm i finnaly seem to have installed it (ubuntu 7.04) without the swapp partition the only thing i tought was strange during the instalation was it hangged at 6% on the copying files screen for about 10 mins... and then it just jumped straight to 18% but after that everything went smooth, now (after it telling me to lose the CD coz its about to restart) it restarts time after time .. the orange bar underneath u
[09:54] <Kronos> buntu's logo goes to roughtly 95% and then it restarts for no reason, does it time after time after time... i just got into the kernel safe mode and that seems to be ok but i have no clue as to what's going on since i never used this before ... >>>HELP PLEASE!!!!<<<
[09:54] <Filthpig> kjp: Search in the "add/remove programs" application
[09:54] <nickrud> Filthpig: might be a bug, try looking on bugs.launchpad.net
[09:54] <kjp> Filthpig: sadly I only have ssh access to the box atm
[09:55] <tmccrary> nickrud: it doesn't output anything other than the initial data
[09:55] <xcst> what alternative can i use so that i can play videos at a nice rate
[09:55] <Dralock> xcst: I just use VLC
[09:55] <nickrud> tmccrary: initial data? usually it'll say something each time you press
[09:55] <Dralock> xcst: when in doubt, yanno?
[09:55] <MrObvious> Kronos: You didn't install with a swap?
[09:55] <xcst> the player?
[09:55] <tmccrary> nickrud: It spit out about 5-6 lines related to new usb devices
[09:56] <Dralock> xcst - yea. Its not the best in the world, but its better than xine and the gnome player.
[09:56] <xcst> my main concern is after installing the codeces, beryl wont work anymore
[09:56] <tmccrary> nickrud: I changed my xmodmap settings around a bit when I worked on a project with the wiimote
[09:56] <ISOcrates> does anyone know of an applet that will display your IP address in a panel?
[09:56] <nickrud> tmccrary: for keys that aren't recognized, anyway. (and starts laughing wildly usb devices on a meta key)
[09:56] <tmccrary> I'm gonna check that out
[09:56] <vocx> xcst, I meant video codecs and Beryldon't play nicely. So just turn off Beryl wjile you watch videos. Also, remember Beryl, compiz, compiz fusion and all that are not exactly finished.
[09:56] <gorlak> dralock, name of proccess would be the pid? or 'command' ?
[09:56] <Kronos> MrObvious: nop i have 2GB of memory and some1 called Pskoll (i belive) said it would be ok with 2 GB of mem
[09:56] <ed_> how do you get the desktop effects to work and stop getting the composite extension error
[09:56] <damjan> Is it dangerous to log in as root while I have an Internet connection?
[09:57] <aguitel> gorlak: kill -9 pid(number)
[09:57] <Dralock> gorlak: it would be the name of the process itself. Like for wine you would type "killall -9 wine"
[09:57] <xcst> the thing is, i just wany ubuntu desktop to look nice
[09:57] <Dralock> gorlak: or for firefox "killall -9 firefox"
[09:57] <nickrud> damjan: not particularly
[09:57] <damjan> ok
[09:57] <gorlak> ah ok
[09:57] <MrObvious> Kronos: You should still have a swap. At least install a 512MB swap. It still wont' hurt. I've used up to 1GB of swap on 512MB of RAM before and still wasn't done opening all my programs. I could probably easily use 2GB of RAM + some swap.
[09:57] <Dralock> gorlak: that will kill all processes associated with the parsed phrase in your PS.
[09:58] <nickrud> damjan: but sudo -i gets you root level stuff without having to have an active root account
[09:58] <damjan> nicrud, but if somebody tries to intrude, he will have all my pc  power
[09:58] <gorlak> i tried the wine, but it didnt work,
[09:58] <Filthpig> nickrud: thanks for the tip, found this in a post there: With sun jre1.5 azureus not work.
[09:58] <Filthpig> With java-gcj work perfectly.
[09:58] <Roge> Im using apt-get to install a package and ubuntu server edition lts version is asking for the cd rom .. is there a way to force it to use the network repo ?
[09:58] <Filthpig> so I'm installing the gcj now
[09:58] <eeyore_> Hi. Could someone tell me what program they use to convert tex to pdf? Any recommendations?
[09:58] <Dralock> gorlak: then try what you are running wine with.
[09:58] <ed_> anyone?
[09:58] <MrObvious> Kronos: You might run Memtest as included on the Ubuntu CD to see if your memory is in good condition. I'd recommend a fresh install since you just did one with a swap partition. Make sure you give the partitions a good format so that it doesn't keep any data. That should get you off good provided you don't have any hardware problems. Also, you aren't needing special SATA or RAID drivers are you?
[09:58] <damjan> nicrud, if I type my password for each package I install, I will commit suicide, :)
[09:58] <Kronos> MrObvious: so u reckon i should install a swap? if so how big ... half the mem size? like 1 GB?...
[09:58] <Dralock> gorlak: I have to -9 WoW.exe (I play world of warcraft) all the time with updates and stuff.
[09:59] <preaction> damjan, you being logged in as root does not open a hole. you having a SSH server running, allowing root to login using SSH, and having an insecure root password would. Since root has no password on default ubuntu, there's no worry there.
[09:59] <nickrud> damjan: sudo -i then.
[09:59] <xcst> the thing is, i just wany ubuntu desktop to look nice
[09:59] <MrObvious> Kronos: 512 will do IMO, but 1GB can't hurt just in case. Linux is smart with memory management.
[09:59] <brandonc503> hey i did the driver search thing and dosent help
[09:59] <zoli2k> How can I blacklist a kernel driver?
[09:59] <brandonc503> have less resolutions then before
[09:59] <damjan> nicrud, I changed the pass, and I activated the gdm and kdm root login
[09:59] <gorlak> still cant seem to quit it, there is always a reboot. hehe
[09:59] <gorlak> thanks for the help thoug
[09:59] <gorlak> though
[10:00] <DShepherd> Roge, open /etc/apt/sources.list and comment out the lines relating to the cd
[10:00] <zoli2k> Hi, can you help me? How can I blacklist a kernel driver?
[10:00] <Filthpig> nickrud: although it's still the same for me o0
[10:00] <vocx> xcst, As I told you, it may be impossible at this stage. Maybe wait until the new ubuntu release arrives with new codecs and improved compiz and probably it will work better.
[10:00] <Pelo> zoli2k, man modprobe
[10:00] <pH1r3> hey people, ive got fiesty installed, if i want to install gutsy will i have to completely reformat everything? or can i just upgrade to gutsy?
[10:00] <nickrud> zoli2k: create a file in /etc/modprobe.d/ , use blacklist in that directory for the syntax (create a new file, so ubuntu won't mess with it)
[10:00] <ed_> whats a good program to choose themes from for ubuntu
[10:00] <damjan> nicrud, why java applications for development like elclipse or java beans, take enormous  memory?
[10:00] <gorlak> thanks for the help :)
[10:00] <tmccrary> ed_ System->Preferences->Theme
[10:00] <Kronos> MrObvious: right no... i  mean i've got a single disk atm... sata yes but just standard nothing fancy... mem... yeh ok i can run some tests but i'm pretty sure its good its some pretty high quality stuff as far as the system goes it was runing 100% yesterday i had windows on and all my stuff worked 100%
[10:01] <preaction> damjan, because the JVM requires a lot of memory
[10:01] <zoli2k> nickrud, thank you. That is what I exactly need.
[10:01] <eeyore_> Hi. Could someone tell me what program they use to convert tex to pdf? Any recommendations?
[10:01] <tmccrary> damjan: They are IDE's, all the features they have take a lot of memory
[10:01] <nickrud> damjan: cuz they're hogs?
[10:01] <ISOcrates> pH1r3: you can upgrade from fiesty i believe
[10:01] <brandonc503> what are some ways i can change my resolution?
[10:01] <pH1r3> cool
[10:01] <ISOcrates> i asked the same question the other night
[10:01] <Kronos> MrObvious: well as good as anything can run on windows =D
[10:01] <mikebot> My volume buttons on my laptop no longer work... how can I fix this?
[10:01] <Pelo> pH1r3,  you can move your /home folder to a seperate partition and use it from there, that will restore all your settings but the  /partiton will get reformated (on an install that is)   if you just  upgrade you are pretty safe
[10:01] <damjan> nicrud, explain me, what is hog, cause I'am new to that term, please.
[10:01] <ed_> tmccrary: im looking for more themese
[10:02] <tmccrary> preaction: The JVM takes up about 40-50 megs for the class libraries... java is better for resource intensive applications right now (so IDEs, editor suites, server programs, etc)
[10:02] <tmccrary> ed_: gnome-look.org is pretty good, imo
[10:02] <pH1r3> ahhk sweet
[10:02] <ed_> tmccrary: i wanna be able to make the icons on my desktop smaller as well
[10:02] <Pelo> brandonc503,  you can  add extra reslolutions you need to the /etc/X11/xorg.conf file
[10:02] <ikonia> ed_: gnome-loo.org
[10:02] <MrObvious> Kronos: Hmm okay. IDK why it would be holding up, unless there are graphics drivers problems. You might check the syslog.
[10:02] <ikonia> ed_: gnome-look.org
[10:02] <nickrud> damjan: a hog is a pig. Eats everything in sight
[10:02] <ed_> tmccrary: thanks that seems like a good site
[10:02] <ed_> ikonia: thanks :)
[10:02] <tmccrary> preaction: The upcoming Java service pack is going to introduce "java kernel" which reduces the initial memor usage to only core classes on startup.... about 2 MB
[10:02] <mikebot> Does anyone know why my volume buttons on my laptop would suddenly stop working?
[10:03] <ISOcrates> there's got to be a way to display one's IP address in a panel, no?
[10:03] <Dralock> ed_: there's always themes.freshmeat.net as well. Though it doesn't update very often.
[10:03] <nickburns> Hi all, long time Linux user, new Ubuntu user... I've installed Ubuntu on my tablet.  Pen, etc., working just fine when the screen is at normal (0 deg) rotation.  However, when I go to draw a line when the screen is rotated, the line appears jagged and broken until I lift my pen -- and then it goes solid.  Happens with all the inking software I have tried so far.  Any idea?
[10:03] <preaction> tmccrary, off-topic, and i don't really care, but thanks
[10:03] <brandonc503> Pelo: that file is empty
[10:03] <Pelo> ISOcrates, in ter terminal  type ifconfig
[10:03] <lap> mikebot: that was a windows commodity.
[10:03] <damjan> nicrud, oh, do you know how much ram memory do I have to have to work freely with java dev and work on internet?
[10:03] <Pelo> brandonc503,    X one one , not X L L
[10:03] <mikebot> lap: They used to work.
[10:03] <ed_> i basically want a nice dark yet simple theme but with small icons (or ones I can modify myself)
[10:03] <mikebot> in ubuntu
[10:03] <tmccrary> preaction: Of course you don't care, you're one of those kinds of people
[10:03] <lap> mikebot: oh ok
[10:03] <Pelo> brandonc503, and remember  linux is case sensitive
[10:03] <ikonia> nickburns: the re-draw on rotation function is possible the problem
[10:03] <brandonc503> Pelo i copied what you typed
[10:03] <ikonia> ed_: visit the site
[10:04] <lap> mikebot: maybe you disabled something that wouldn't to be disabled
[10:04] <xcst> what else cool things i can do with ubuntu'
[10:04] <ISOcrates> Pelo, yeah besides that though
[10:04] <xcst> what else cool things i can do with ubuntu?
[10:04] <nickburns> ikonia, any suggestion on how to fix it?
[10:04] <mikebot> lap: How can I solve the issue (by finding out what may have changed)?
[10:04] <Pelo> brandonc503,  browse manualy to the location, I typed it correctly
[10:04] <Dralock> xcst - thats rather subjective, don't you think?
[10:04] <ed_> ikonia: i am now as we speak actually lol
[10:04] <ISOcrates> i have the network connection applet in the panel and if you click it and click support it shows you.  but i thought for sure there must bea  way to just show it all the time in the panel
[10:04] <ikonia> nickburns: no idea, I've not seen ubuntu on tablets, however I've seen rotation re-draw issues on palm pilots
[10:04] <Kronos> MrObvious: yes yes yes... my graphics card is pretty good but its a bit of a funny one its known for that, and when i was trying to install ubuntu with the desktop instalation disk its keept messing up on the loading screen (after u press install on the screen where u get a little bar going back and forth) then i was recomended to get the "alternate" version which is what i'm using now
[10:04] <ikonia> ed_: then we don't need a commentary
[10:05] <ikonia> nickburns I'm just making a directional suggestion
[10:05] <MrObvious> Kronos: What is your GPU?
[10:05] <ppj> Ubuntu is the only ncurses installed distro that I can faithfully rely on to sit at 6% or 90% everytime I install it
[10:05] <brandonc503> Pelo got i thanks
[10:05] <xcst> draconius wht do you men>
[10:05] <damjan> Any good java dev channel?
[10:05] <ed_> ikonia: what on earth are you talking about....a commentary
[10:05] <MrObvious> Kronos: And are you running an overclock of any kind?
[10:05] <xcst> draconius wht do you meean?
[10:05] <ikonia> damjan: not here
[10:05] <tmccrary> ed_: ikonia is a douche, just ignore it
[10:05] <ikonia> ed_ I want this theme, that theme
[10:05] <ikonia> tmccrary not be offensive
[10:05] <brandonc503> Pelo any help on what to change?
[10:05] <ikonia> don't
[10:05] <brandonc503> Pelo link would be good
[10:05] <Roge> thx
[10:05] <lap> mikebot: sorry, i'd never use that buttons.
[10:05] <Pelo> brandonc503,  you'll figure it out, it's pretty evident
[10:06] <mikebot> lap: K, thanks.
[10:06] <damjan> ikonia do u know some channel or forum for java development
[10:06] <NTAuthority> blarg, gutsy beta gives an error about the gnome-settings-manager on boot of desktop cd
[10:06] <ikonia> damjan #java
[10:06] <ed_> ikonia: i was actually throwing it out there in case anyone had anything to add....if you don' want to see it then dont
[10:06] <brandonc503> k
[10:06] <damjan> ok
[10:06] <tmccrary> damjam: #java... but's full of morons

[10:06] <Dralock> xcst - I mean, your definition of "cool" things might be quite different than other people's. Narrowing down your general question to a certain field, such as, "what cool widgets can I install" or "what cool window managers are there out there to play with" or "what cool system monitoring tools can I play with" would be much better.
[10:06] <simonbp> oobe, I've got mythtv on ubuntu
[10:07] <Kronos> MrObvious: gainward 6800GS AGP 512 MB  (this is technicly a PCIe jobbie with a PCIe to AGP converter thing, and what i mean by funny is that they "never" released any 512 MB version on AGP... so this is some wired very limited version...
[10:07] <klotho> hello... are there any repositories for gutsy that are faster than the default (USA) one? downloads are going really slowly....
[10:07] <oobe> ii have a prob im using ubuntu but its not really ubuntu related
[10:07] <xcst> i mean the desktop view
[10:07] <Kronos> MrObvious: no overclocks
[10:07] <ikonia> klotho: the servers had problems earlier, they are catching up

[10:07] <xcst> you know style
[10:07] <vocx> klotho, gutsy, not here please. #ubuntu+1 for gutsy
[10:07] <oobe> my tuner distorts with ranbow colours and wont fix untill reboot

[10:07] <lap> xcst: apt-get install beryl beryl-manager emerald-themes
[10:07] <klotho> ikonia: so just use the USA ones, no other mirrors that arebetter?
[10:07] <lap> =)
[10:07] <oobe> ever heard of somthing like that
[10:08] <damjan> tmcrary that is funny
[10:08] <ikonia> klotho: the usa ones will ease up shortly, they are just on catch up a bit
[10:08] <MrObvious> Kronos: Hmm odd. Try what I suggested and see if that works then.
[10:08] <Hilikus> hey guys, i have mythtv runnig and it uses mysql, now im installing phpbb and the mysql installer is asking me if i have created a database, does that mean, is there ANY database running (there is, the one that mythtv is using) or when they refer to database they mean one for phpbb specifically?
[10:08] <Filthpig> nickrud: ah, I need to download a new package (still in proposed state)
[10:08] <Filthpig> but it works under gutsy :)
[10:08] <ikonia> Hilikus no, it means have you created a phpbb database
[10:08] <damjan> tmcrary guess the whole server is on vacation, cause is not oppening
[10:08] <nubuntu> However it is not always the smoking gun
[10:08] <simonbp> oobe: does the tuner card handle mpeg2 encoding, or do you handle that in software?
[10:08] <Dralock> xcst: I suggest, then, you start down the path of learning about the wonderful world of linux window managers. Nautilis is just the ubuntu default, but there are many to mess with. You can lose yourself for weeks configuring things to be just right.
[10:08] <tmccrary> damjam: You're better off, believe me
[10:09] <Hilikus> ikonia mysql can have several databases right?
[10:09] <oobe> its a dvb-t
[10:09] <oobe> im not sure if it does mpeg2 encoding
[10:09] <nubuntu> but the vid worked under gutcy
[10:09] <brandonc503> vocx whats fixres?
[10:09] <simonbp> oobe: I had a tough time with mythtv until I got a tuner card that handled all the encoding itself.

[10:11] <clos> yeah
[10:11] <clos> i did

[10:14] <bjames> hi all
[10:14] <MrObvious> clos: Oh I see.
[10:14] <Fiveohthree> says running local boot scritps...
[10:14] <Fiveohthree> but nothing
[10:14] <wfernandow> thanks
[10:14] <klotho> no one on #ubuntu+1 has an answer to my question of whether there are other mirrors I should use now because the main ones are slow. Anyone know?
[10:14] <dug_> how can you permanently change the column widths nautilus uses in list view?  The name column takes up the entire window, i have to resize it every time I open a new folder.
[10:15] <ikonia> klotho: I've told you
[10:15] <bjames> I want to have a play with some low-level network programming (i.e. connecting a microcontroller directly to my router, via ethernet) and was wondering if there are any simulation tools that I can use to simulate a network at various levels of the protocol stack?
[10:15] <MrObvious> clos: So we'll assume there is no NAT router. Now we gotta look at the way it connects.
[10:15] <ikonia> klotho: there are many other mirrors, but its probably best to stick with the usa ones and let them sort them selves out
[10:15] <clos> i mean
[10:15] <generalsnus> 13 Days to go... sigh, thats a long time for an impatient guy :P
[10:15] <MrObvious> clos: I'll assume the address you gave earlier is the IP address. Let me see if I can connect.
[10:15] <clos> ok
[10:16] <arkygeek> i am running an intel iMac 24" with nVidia.  things were working perfectly, and then after a reboot, everything went haywire.  I have the full resolution back, but it seems like the depth is wrong or something. any ideas?
[10:16] <arkygeek> oh.  hi btw :P
[10:16] <MrObvious> clos: Try using plain vncserver and closing down vnc4server and see if that makes a difference.
[10:16] <gea> hola, he instalado virtualbox, como lo abro? en consola no esta el comando 'virtualbox' , ni me aparece como programa
[10:16] <MrObvious> !spanish | gea
[10:16] <ubotu> gea: Si busca ayuda en Espaol por favor entre en los canales #ubuntu-es, #kubuntu-es o #edubuntu-es, all obtendr mas ayuda.
[10:17] <vocx> arkygeek, why do you think "the depth is wrong or something"?  That is totally useless information, try again.
[10:17] <gea> sorry
[10:17] <gea> wrong window
[10:17] <niter3> bbbbbbbbbahhaha
[10:17] <niter3> Man guys
[10:17] <spinner_> bjames: You have the bosom netsim for ccna
[10:17] <niter3> ANy candians in here?1
[10:17] <niter3> ?!
[10:17] <niter3> THANKS GIVING THIS WEEKEND! WHOOT!
[10:18] <CrickNeck> heh
[10:18] <generalsnus> I guess there is no point in installing 7.04 now and uppgrade to 7.10 at launch..guessing it might complicate things
[10:18] <ikonia> !offtopic >niter3
[10:18] <bjames> spinner: I will have a look at that
[10:18] <tmccrary> niter3: Out of curiosity, what is the best part of canadian thanksgiving?
[10:18] <jonah1980> hi got a problem and on phone to my dad who is in spain, i'm in the uk, he not good with computers
[10:18] <Hilikus> whats the default mysql root password?
[10:18] <jonah1980> but he says the computer is locking up
[10:19] <tmccrary> clear
[10:19] <jonah1980> i think he needs legacy nvidia card driver and not the normal one
[10:19] <hagna> so sometimes during apt-get install it won't resolve archive.ubuntu.org
[10:19] <arkygeek> vocx: hmmmm.  hard to explain.  it looks like too few colors or something
[10:19] <MrObvious> !offtopic > tmccrary
[10:19] <clos> i installed vncserver and it says New 'X' desktop is 89-149-232-81.internetserviceteam.com:1
[10:19] <hagna> also ssh sometimes takes a long to to login
[10:19] <clos> but i still can't connect
[10:19] <genii> Hilikus: username:mysql pass: mysql
[10:19] <hagna> is that dns related?
[10:19] <clos> and this time it didn't ask me for a password
[10:19] <tmccrary> MrObvious: Thanks douche, that was a close one
[10:19] <bjames> spinner_: it seems to be a non-free product
[10:19] <bjames> is there anything free/open?
[10:20] <MrObvious> clos: Hmm. There might be a firewall between you and the remote server. Check and remove them if necessary.
[10:20] <jonah1980> he says it's come on now and not locked up is there an easy way to change to legacy without breaking it?
[10:20] <clos> there is no firewall...
[10:20] <spinner_> bjames do not know im new to this free world :)
[10:20] <clos> i had this working with fedora 4 on the same server the other day
[10:20] <bjames> spinner_: free is good ;-)
[10:20] <dug_> anyone know how to change the default column widths nautilus uses in list view?  The name column takes up the entire window, i have to resize it every time I open a new folder.
[10:20] <MrObvious> clos: Hmm. There is something obvious I'm missing. I'm sorry.
[10:20] <clos> is there some wierd SELinux thing?
[10:20] <ikonia> clos how can it be on the same server you just told me it was a rented server
[10:20] <arkygeek> vocx: NVIDIA Driver Version: 1.0-9755
[10:21] <clos> ikonia yeah
[10:21] <MrObvious> !vnc
[10:21] <ubotu> VNC is a protocol for remote desktop. https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VNCOverSSH describes how to use it securely.  It works best over fast connections, otherwise look at !FreeNX
[10:21] <spinner_> but im looking for the same thing so plz let me know if you found something of intrest
[10:21] <clos> its a dedicated server that i have root access too
[10:21] <clos> that i'm trying to install a vncserver
[10:21] <arkygeek> niter3: im an expat canuck... happy thxgiving to you too
[10:21] <oshiii-_^> !FreeNX
[10:21] <ubotu> FreeNX is advanced remote desktop technology. For more information and install instructions, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FreeNX
[10:21] <MrObvious> clos: Hmm. I'll google a little bit to see if there is anything obvious I'm missing.
[10:22] <arkygeek> niter3: we are baking a pumpkin as we speak for a pie for tomorrow
[10:22] <spinner_> bjames:  yes i know but ive been using win al my life this is my 3rd day with linux
[10:22] <arkygeek> spinner_: sticck with it. it is SO worth it.  After three years of windows free computer use, i cant believe i ever used to like windows
[10:23] <coreymon77> ikonia: huh? am i needed?
[10:23] <arkygeek> !nvidia
[10:23] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[10:23] <bjames> spinner_: are you looking to simulate protocols or network traffic?
[10:23] <coreymon77> ikonia: you pinged?
[10:23] <mr_toast> who wants to help me fix firstarter and fix DHCP?
[10:23] <ikonia> coreymon77 apologies, I must have done a miss-type
[10:23] <bjames> I'm looking to test implement a network protocol stack
[10:23] <coreymon77> oh

[10:24] <NTAuthority> feisty also gives an blown up bootsplash, and i'm waiting for the gnome-settings-manager error to come up, when booting the desktop cd on an 845 system (using the onboard intel video)
[10:26] <niter3> Crazy tits
[10:26] <fevel> hey
[10:26] <KevlarSoul> I installed Ubuntu on a partition it made, everything looked great, when I rebooted there was no dual boot screen, went straight into winblows?
[10:26] <ikonia> niter3: that language is uncalled for
[10:26] <fevel> can firestarter be trusted with a biiig network
[10:26] <fevel> as a security firewall
[10:26] <ikonia> fevel: personal opinion - no
[10:26] <fevel> ikonia, what do you suggest?
[10:26] <ikonia> fevel: use fwbuilder with iptables
[10:26] <fevel> iptables by hand?
[10:26] <mr_toast> just received could not grab mouse warning? this is a first and is this like natural cause this installation is clean 0_o??
[10:27] <ikonia> coreymon77 or an enterprise product
[10:27] <niter3> ikonia: Big gigantic fat enormous huage super awesome fucking wondering bonker tits!!
[10:27] <fevel> ikonia, I see
[10:27] <niter3> ikonia: bann..
[10:27] <stdin> !language | niter3
[10:27] <ubotu> niter3: Please watch your language and keep this channel family friendly.
[10:27] <tmccrary> !language | stdin
[10:27] <ubotu> stdin: Please watch your language and keep this channel family friendly.
[10:27] <fevel> ikonia, but firestarter does use iptables right?
[10:27] <niter3> I was just trying to be funny
[10:27] <coreymon77> ikonia: mistype again?
[10:27] <ikonia> coreymon77: totally, auto complete is off
[10:27] <stdin> tmccrary: ?
[10:27] <tmccrary> You better watch your language, I don't appreciate that
[10:27] <highoctanejg> Anyone here have experience installing phplist?
[10:28] <ikonia> coreymon77: sorry
[10:28] <Centaur5> Should I have to specify "openvpn /etc/openvpn/server.conf" every time I start it?
[10:28] <qazwsx> I need to setup an voip solution on linux; is asterisk my best bet?
[10:28] <stdin> tmccrary: what are you on about?
[10:28] <tmccrary> stdin: Exactly
[10:28] <niter3> Centaur5: dude
[10:28] <niter3> Centaur5: That's why you run the startup script
[10:28] <tmccrary> stdin: Bottom line, stop it
[10:28] <stdin> hmm
[10:28] <niter3> Centaur5: /etc/init.d
[10:28] <ikonia> stdin: scroll up for niter3 bad language please
[10:28] <stdin> ikonia: I've warned niter3 now
[10:28] <mightymoe> Howdy there Ubuntu masters.  I am new to the Linux scen and wanted to give Ubuntu 7.04 a shot.  I've posted a rather long description on the Ubuntu forums this morning but have not got a reply yet would it be ok if I tried to describe my issue here or maybe post the forum link so one of you fine gurus might be able to give a newbie some directions?
[10:28] <tmccrary> qazwsx: Yes, pretty much, asterisk very robust
[10:29] <ikonia> stdin: gratzi
[10:29] <Centaur5> niter3: okay, I just thought maybe that's what I did wrong cause when I was testing it I ran it manually and now that I reboot my client can connect but can't ping the local ip addresses.
[10:29] <tmccrary> ikonia: Don't worry, I also warned stdin
[10:29] <niter3> Centaur5: all applications usually come with scripts you start the service with. You usually find these under /etc/init.d .
[10:29] <ctothej> !ask | mightymoe
[10:29] <ubotu> mightymoe: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[10:29] <spinner_> eny here tested knoppix? and if so do know if usb is supported ?
[10:29] <lloyd> hi all :p
[10:29] <genii> mightymoe: might be good to just give your posting URL
[10:29] <stdin> tmccrary: warned me for what?
[10:29] <ikonia> spinner_: join #knoppix
[10:29] <bjames> mightymoe: the general rule is ask away and see if you get a reply
[10:29] <tmccrary> stdin: I shouldn't have to tell you
[10:29] <lloyd> how do i change the java frostwire uses ???
[10:29] <oshiii-_^> -_-
[10:29] <Centaur5> niter3: And my server obviously started that script when I rebooted but it rendered my client access useless.
[10:30] <mightymoe> greathttp://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=567907 is my post
[10:30] <bjames> mightymoe: in the time you take to ask if you can ask you could have asked ;-)
[10:30] <MrObvious> clos: Hmm no idea. Sorry.
[10:30] <clos> k
[10:31] <lloyd> how do i change the java frostwire uses ??????
[10:31] <ryanakca> What's a recommended internet kiosk distro? There was one in Linux Format a while back... and I could always heavily modify an ubuntu/xubuntu live CD ... (it would be a live CD so that all they have to do is reboot if ever they have a problem)
[10:31] <riaal> Really need some help, when following the "Macbook" howto on https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MacBook  the Madwifi driver file is missing, can anyone here help me find a replacement? (The link is broken)
[10:31] <jeleta> hi

[10:32] <ziv> hi, I'm not sure what do I need to put in "Local Alias" in the GAIM program if I want to use it for MSN instant messaging. Can you help me?
[10:32] <stdin> fevel: I know :)
[10:32] <mightymoe> kinda dove in to the whole thing head first after scouring different multi boot guides, but I believe the guts of my issues are in the post... just not sure which direction to go.  Vista and XP installed on 2 diff IDEs and then installed Ubuntu on a 3 drive SATA... getting GRUB errors now lovely generic "Error 22" when booting to Ubuntu
[10:32] <riaal> Anyone have an ide what to do when this don't work in a ubuntu wifi: wget http://snapshots.madwifi.org/madwifi-hal-<IP_ADDRESS>-current.tar.gz

[10:33] <lloyd> i installed the newest java but he just wont open the screen
[10:33] <fevel> lloyd, you need the sun java
[10:33] <razer> I want to install Ubuntu on a new machine. Should I be installing 7.04 or 7.10, beta, can I easily upgrade either to 7.10 final?
[10:33] <niter3> Centaur5: what do you mean. What service is this?
[10:33] <jeleta> HELP
[10:33] <lloyd> i knw fevel but my java keeps thinking he needs to use old java instead of new one fresh installed
[10:34] <lloyd> jeleta don't ask to ask just ask
[10:34] <jeleta> how do i instal java
[10:34] <hitomaro> Hi, can someone help me partition
[10:34] <lamego> razer, the upgrade to final will be easy, however the choice to use a beta version, is yours :)
[10:34] <hitomaro> ?
[10:34] <lloyd> aptitude install sun-java6-jre
[10:34] <nickrud> !sun
[10:34] <lloyd> ...
[10:34] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about sun - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[10:34] <Filthpig> is there some way for me to force all ports open?
[10:34] <razer> Lamego: How beta could it be if its only 13 days to final release?
[10:34] <Centaur5> niter3: I just barely setup a vpn server and laptop client. Before I rebooted I tested the server by manually running that command and my laptop could connect and ping my local machines. After rebooting the server ran openvpn automatically and the client can connect but doesn't have any access.
[10:34] <lloyd> Filthpig, why would you open all :s
[10:35] <lamego> razer, enough beta to cause me 3 crashes today :)
[10:35] <nickrud> lloyd: try sudo update-alternatives --config java , make sure java6 is chosen
[10:35] <clouder> echo 'something' >> ~/myfile    will add 'something' on a new line to myfile?
[10:35] <hitomaro> hello can someone please help me out partitioning? it will only take a few minutes.. I just want to refresh my memory
[10:35] <lloyd> thats it ty allot nickrud
[10:35] <ziv> Hi, could anyone help me with configuring GAIM for MSN instant messaging?
[10:35] <razer> lamego: Oh, I better use 7.04 then. I just want to be able to upgrade it to 7.10 easily.
[10:35] <fevel> hitomaro, why dont you use gparted?
[10:35] <hitomaro> gparted?
[10:35] <lamego> razer, please create a /home on a dedicated partition
[10:35] <lloyd> ty allot nickrud
[10:35] <hitomaro> oh guide
[10:35] <razer> Do you think there is a good chance that my printers will work with ubuntu?
[10:36] <lamego> fresh installs are preferable to upgrades
[10:36] <Filthpig> lloyd: appearently firestarter or something like that ahas blocked many of my ports.. So I can hardly send/recieve files over msn, and azureus tells me I'm firewalled
[10:36] <hitomaro> yeah I'm afraid of accidentally deleted the rest of my hd
[10:36] <nickrud> razer: linuxprinting.org , look there for printer support info
[10:36] <TonyBear> How can i make adobe flash working with firefox, on amd64 machine??? Like it did with Suse!!
[10:36] <lamego> razer, it depends on the printer model :)
[10:36] <razer> ok
[10:36] <fevel> cant see how you could have done that
[10:36] <lamego> TonyBear, you will need to install the nspluginwrapper
[10:36] <jimcooncat> hitomaro: are you doing a new install? repartitioning an existing one? Have a live cd?
[10:36] <lloyd> Filthpig idk why you would even use msn to send stuf rapidshare owns ...
[10:36] <lap> TonyBear: you need to install firefox 32bit with 32 bit support for your machine
[10:36] <fevel> ...unless you have no eyes
[10:36] <nickrud> !flash64
[10:36] <ubotu> You can run Flash, Real, and Java plugins in AMD64 bit computers with Firefox. see the steps to follow at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FirefoxAMD64FlashJava
[10:36] <lamego> lap, not he does not :)
[10:36] <hitomaro> Live CD installing a new one
[10:37] <Filthpig> lloyd: tell that to my 30+ friends
