[03:44] <bigboss__> canon lbp-3010 64bit machine
[03:45] <sebsebseb> ^cheeky: I wasn't fully clear what you were after,  and LAMP setups are pretty common,  you might want to try  the general Linux channel ##linux  and there's also #networking
[03:45] <ratzes> does anyone know how i can reset my theme back to its complete default?
[03:45] <ratzes> i went to the package manager and uninstalled the programs that set up my old themes
[03:45] <StevensUbuntuTri> Can anyone help me get my browser to view flash video clips?
[03:45] <ratzes> but the information is still there even though i load a new theme

[03:46] <bigboss__> i cant read 3010
[03:46] <^cheeky> sebsebseb, i have php , mysql and apache2 set up on my machine and it works perfect., except i can get this komodo editor (ide) to work with my system. php syntax checking and stuff
[03:47] <samd> !flash
[03:47] <samd> !flash StevensUbuntuTri
[03:47] <sebsebseb> ^cheeky: ok I don't really know about this stuff,  and there's also #php

[03:47] <ratzes> i dont know if you've heard of it, but im trying to run that shiki theme, but the highlight colors are from an old theme
[03:47] <Sebboh> Acorn, I don't know what to do with the .desktop file.  Sounds like something a window manager/desktop environment uses.  I don't know much about those, only Java.
[03:47] <ratzes> i did a fresh install of ubuntu on my gf's computer and the highlight colors are what they should be
[03:48] <jamus> victim of facebook warm  i need an antivirus please
[03:48] <^cheeky> sebsebseb, ill check in #linux thank you
[03:48] <bastid_raZor> eladcan i PM you with the solution for adding ~/bin to your path?
[03:48] <sebsebseb> ^cheeky: ok good luck
[03:48] <minimec> bigboss__: I guess the 3010 is the 'fallower of 3000. I would try that driver. that should work.
[03:48] <darlek> Acorn, the .desktop file only runs the main program file.  If you can find the file probably in a /bin folder you can recreate the link.  type whereis programname to narrow down the location
[03:48] <Acorn> sebboh: I looked at the properties and it had a command with a path to the javaws cache for the program, so I just stuck that path into the main menu editor
[03:49] <Cosmo1> a friend said he knew of one but could not find his bookmark for it
[03:49] <cabrey> minimec, thats what i was thinking
[03:49] <bigboss__> minimec, ok i'll try and i'll say u how will it go
[03:49] <ratzes> can i just delete some theme information to reset it back to it to when it was a fresh install?
[03:49] <ratzes> i heard of someone mentioning gconfd
[03:49] <ratzes> or gtkrc
[03:49] <Acorn> darlek: can I just use the path that's in the .desktop file?
[03:49] <ratzes> but i dont want to just go ahead and delete them
[03:49] <fccf> Acorn: try downloading the .jnlp file and running javawm filename.jlnp
[03:50] <darlek> Acorn, I don't see why you need to add to path, since the shortcut is running from a specified location.
[03:50] <jon5001> Hello.  I am having trouble connecting to my wireless network and reaching another pc on the network.  I had this working before but somehow it has stopped.  Cofiguration is: laptop running ubuntu, connects to wireless router.  desktop running vista and connected by wire to router.  from ubuntu machine i am able to get to the router and the internet, but cannot see local pc on network
[03:51] <darlek> Acorn, if you know where in the cache the main file is, then you can remake a shortcut or make a menu item.  It isn't in the menu already?  Might be in a different menu group
[03:51] <ratzes> what kind of router are you using?
[03:51] <sebsebseb> jon5001: maybe not that useful, but
[03:51] <bastid_raZor> elad can i PM you?
[03:51] <sebsebseb> !wireless | jon5001
[03:51] <ratzes> and is it currently reaching any other pc?
[03:51] <ratzes> in irc, how do you direct a chat towards someone?
[03:51] <lstarnes> ratzes: like this
[03:51] <cabrey> !tab | ratem
[03:52] <cabrey> !tab | ratzes *
[03:52] <ratzes> oh ok
[03:52] <ratzes> thanks
[03:52] <Acorn> darlek: I remade the shortcut from javaws -viewer, but I don't want to have a .desktop file sitting on my desktop do I? I might as well just put the path it's pointing to into my main menu entry, no?
[03:52] <elad> For a while, everything was fine with my computer. Now, for no apparent reason, when I start up, gdm starts up just fine, but after I enter my username and password, it tells me it couldn't start my session, and has launched a failsafe xterm instead. Then, I'm back at the GDM screen. Help?
[03:52] <jon5001> sebsebseb,
[03:52] <darlek> Acorn, yes, correct
[03:52] <vopen2> how do i find out what files are installed by a package?
[03:52] <jon5001> sebsebseb, will have a look and revert
[03:53] <sebsebseb> jon5001: ok
[03:53] <cabrey> vopen2, open the package using gdebi
[03:53] <cabrey> vopen2, aka double click on it
[03:53] <darlek> Acorn, try it from the terminal window and see if it has any options.  man command or man programname
[03:53] <minimec> elad: ould it be, that the /home partition is full, or the harddisk in general?
[03:53] <CleanLaundry> Does Ubuntu have a virtual keyboard like windows?
[03:53] <vopen2> i'm just using apt-get
[03:53] <ratzes> how do i go back to factory defaults for ubuntu's theme?
[03:53] <darlek> Acorn , man javaws I suppose
[03:53] <sebsebseb> ratzes: the panels?
[03:54] <coz_> CleanLaundry,  I believe it does guy although I cant pin point the name
[03:54] <ratzes> CleanLaundry: yes, go to assistive technologies
[03:54] <bigboss__> cabrey, i have some troubles using the guide
[03:54] <elad> minimec: Could you help me check that? I forgot how to do that without a GUI.
[03:54] <ratzes> sebsebseb: ?
[03:54] <coz_> CleanLaundry,   google    ubuntu   9.04 virtual keyboard
[03:54] <cabrey> vopen2, dpkg -c package.deb
[03:54] <elad> (Using IRSSI right now.)
[03:54] <office_> please resolve me bandyta.pl
[03:54] <cabrey> bigboss__, whats wrong?
[03:54] <sebsebseb> ratzes: something about theme?
[03:54] <office_> what ip is bandyta.pl
[03:54] <vopen2> cabrey: k, will try. thanks.
[03:54] <bigboss__> cabrey, wait i pastebin the output
[03:55] <ratzes> sebsebseb: yeah, i installed a theme earlier, and then i installed a new one and i have some settings from the old theme still showing
[03:55] <office_> anybody can check
[03:55] <office_> host bandyta.pl
[03:55] <Flannel> office_: please take non-Ubuntu support questions elsewhere.  Thanks.
[03:55] <office_> ?
[03:55] <darlek> CleanLaundry, I think that's a part of the SCIM Input Setup, under System > Preferences > SCIM Input Setup
[03:55] <elad> minimec: Could you help me check that? I forgot how to do that without a GUI.
[03:55] <Flannel> elad: df -h
[03:55] <ratzes> sebsebseb: I installed the old theme from some new fangled theme manager
[03:55] <minimec> elad: do you have a seperate /home partition?
[03:55] <CleanLaundry> darlek, thanks, will look at that now
[03:55] <elad> I've got 207GB of free space. That's not the problem.
[03:55] <sebsebseb> ratzes: I am pretty much the wrong person for theme questions, to be honest
[03:55] <elad> minimec: No.
[03:55] <bigboss__> cabrey, http://paste.ubuntu.com/189405/
[03:55] <sebsebseb> ratzes: I thought you just wanted something basic like the panel resetted to defaults or to change the theme
[03:56] <ratzes> sebsebseb: lol, its so much more complex than I would think it is
[03:56] <gasquetfan> hi
[03:56] <elad> A minimum of 1GB is still available on each of my partitions.
[03:56] <cabrey> bigboss__, use AMD64 packages
[03:56] <cabrey> bigboss__, they are prebuilt for you
[03:56] <gasquetfan> my screen freezes after I upgraded to ubuntu 9.04.
[03:56] <bigboss__> cabrey, how?
[03:56] <minimec> elad: Ok. I see, that my suggestion was wrong. ;)
[03:56] <sebsebseb> gasquetfan: when does it freeze exactly?
[03:56] <etk> i've got a soundblaster audigy sound card installed and my system is directing the sound towards the sound blaster firewire port instead of the correct audio input.. anyone have any experience with this offhand
[03:57] <fccf> office_: 95.48.32,18
[03:57] <jon5001> sebsebseb, that was not what i needed.  I can access my wireless network.  getting onto the windows network via the wireless router that is the problem.  for clarity: i am completely able to get onto my router, get an internal "192" ip address and get on the net, but cannot access the windows network.  Also, to repeat, this was working before and is not now
[03:57] <cabrey> bigboss__, in the "Contents" box, #12
[03:57] <gasquetfan> tnx sebsebseb.. It freezes at the login screen..
[03:57] <bigboss__> .............................omg................................i'm an idiot
[03:57] <sebsebseb> jon5001: I am far from a wireless expert
[03:57] <Acorn> where should you put icons that you want to  appear next to main menu shortcuts?
[03:58] <sebsebseb> gasquetfan: which graphics card do you have?
[03:58] <gasquetfan> intel 82945G
[03:58] <sebsebseb> gasquetfan: Intel yes that's what I thought
[03:58] <sebsebseb> !intel |  gasquetfan
[03:58] <josh_> after upgrade to v9 system->shutdown menu item has dissappeared... anyone know about that?
[03:58] <sebsebseb> gasquetfan: and the notes for some more Intel issues info
[03:58] <sebsebseb> !notes |  gasquetfan
[03:58] <gasquetfan> oh thanks a lot sebsebseb
[03:58] <cabrey> josh_, look in the top right hand corner
[03:59] <ratzes> how do I delete files when i dont own them from the file manager?
[03:59] <sebsebseb> gasquetfan: ok np
[03:59] <gasquetfan> by the way, if it doesn't work out...
[03:59] <sebsebseb> gasquetfan: put 8.10 on?
[03:59] <gasquetfan> can I revert to ubuntu 8.0?
[03:59] <cabrey> ratzes, use sudo
[03:59] <josh_> ok cool thanks
[03:59] <sebsebseb> gasquetfan: yes, but you shoudn't attempt to downgrade
[03:59] <sebsebseb> !downgrade |  gasquetfan
[03:59] <ratzes> cabrey: how can i do it without the command line?
[03:59] <BeatlesFan> hey all
[03:59] <gasquetfan> oh ok
[03:59] <cabrey> ratzes, alt-f2 gksu nautilus
[03:59] <gasquetfan> I don't have a working dvd
[03:59] <gasquetfan> can I install ubuntu on internet?
[03:59] <josh_> the help file still says to go to system->shutdown, is that a skin type feature ?
[04:00] <gasquetfan> on a network
[04:00] <cabrey> josh_, what help file?
[04:00] <bigboss__> cabrey, after that installation i'll find drivers into the drivers list?
[04:00] <ratzes> cabrey: this is cool, thanks!
[04:00] <sebsebseb> !install | gasquetfan
[04:00] <cabrey> bigboss__, hopefully
[04:00] <josh_> ubuntu help center
[04:00] <darlek> gasquetfan, can you open a terminal?  sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg maybe... I'd read up on that command first though.  IT will jst make a dummy xorg.conf file.  Your old one should be in /etc/X11/xorg or in /etc/X11 somewhere.
[04:00] <gasquetfan> thanks a lot u guys...
[04:00] <cabrey> ratzes, be extremely careful
[04:00] <sebsebseb> gasquetfan: ok  good luck
[04:00] <bigboss__> xD
[04:00] <gasquetfan> yes I can open a terminal.
[04:00] <gasquetfan> I'll try that
[04:00] <elad> For a while, everything was fine with my computer. Now, for no apparent reason, when I start up, gdm starts up just fine, but after I enter my username and password, it tells me it couldn't start my session, and has launched a failsafe xterm instead. Then, I'm back at the GDM screen. Help?
[04:00] <cabrey> ratzes, because you are using root, you can delete anything
[04:00] <gasquetfan> I am right now on recovery console :)
[04:01] <Firefishe> I'm using the kubuntu 9.04 live cd.  I just installed the nvidia proprietary driver, and the system wants a reboot to activate it.  Is there any way around this?
[04:01] <sebsebseb> Firefishe: no
[04:01] <StevensUbuntuTri> Hello.  I am having trouble getting my browser to view flash videos.  Only youtube works (with poor performance) No other flash videos on the internet work.  Can someone help?
[04:01] <ctmjr> Firefishe, no
[04:01] <ratzes> cabrey: yeah. Do i just close the window to stop the root access?
[04:01] <sebsebseb> Firefishe: the graphics card driver shoudn't be installed on the Live CD, since you  need to reboot really, unless you can just log out and back in again
[04:01] <ratzes> cabrey: after im done?
[04:01] <cabrey> ratzes, yes
[04:02] <ratzes> cabrey: ok, thanks
[04:02] <Firefishe> sebsebseb:  log out and back in on a live cd?
[04:02] <sebsebseb> Firefishe: maybe possible somehow
[04:02] <darlek> gasquetfan, I have a whole bunch of xorg.conf.<date> files, so maybe there's an older file in there on your end that can help show you the different between your current xorg.conf file and a previous file
[04:02] <ratzes> cabrey: would you happen to know where the config files for themes are stored?
[04:02] <cabrey> ratzes, /usr/share/themes for system wide
[04:02] <cabrey> .themes in your $HOME for you only
[04:02] <sebsebseb> Firefishe: I think I have seen log in screen on Ubuntu Live CD's before
[04:03] <bigboss__> cabrey, into that line "sudo /usr/sbin/lpadmin -p LBP1210 -m CNCUPSLBP1210CAPTK.ppd -v ccp:/var/ccpd/fifo0 -E" do i have to change lbp1210 with lbp3010??
[04:03] <elad> Could someone please help me get gnome back running? I've recently upgrade from 8.10 to 9.04.
[04:03] <ratzes> cabrey: what happens if i delete the default?
[04:03] <_2eXtreme> evening all!
[04:03] <minimec> Firefishe: I guess no, because the kernel needs the nvidia kernel-module. You can try to logout the session. that would restart the xserver.
[04:03] <sebsebseb> !details |  elad
[04:03] <cabrey> bigboss__, I would try lbp3000
[04:03] <cabrey> ratzes, i would suggest against that
[04:03] <fccf> sebsebseb: Firefishe: ubuntu will automatically login after 30 secs
[04:03] <sebsebseb> elad: get Gnome back, does not make proper sense, what is the exact problem
[04:03] <elad> ubuttu, sebsebseb: For a while, everything was fine with my computer. Now, for no apparent reason, when I start up, gdm starts up just fine, but after I enter my username and password, it tells me it couldn't start my session, and has launched a failsafe xterm instead. Then, I'm back at the GDM screen. Help?
[04:03] <bigboss__> cabrey, ok, but do i change also on  CNCUPSLBP1210CAPTK.ppd?
[04:04] <darlek> !ubottu | darlek
[04:04] <sebsebseb> !bot |  elad
[04:04] <elad> Oops.
[04:04] <ratzes> cabrey: im trying to get rid of some junk that my old theme left over, like all the highlight colors
[04:04] <cabrey> bigboss__, probably, the only way to find out is trial and error
[04:04] <Firefishe> fccf:  So just log out from the current live-desktop, wait 30 seconds, then log in again?
[04:04] <bigboss__> great :D
[04:04] <Kyothine> is there anyone who can help me with WUBI? sorry im a newb at this.
[04:04] <elad> IRSSI - small screen. I only saw ubottu was talking to me. Didn't see you triggering it, sebsebseb.
[04:04] <sebsebseb> Kyothine: Wubi oh no!
[04:04] <elad> So, sebsebseb, could you please help me out?
[04:04] <sebsebseb> Kyothine: don't use Wubi,  partition your hard disk instead :)
[04:04] <ratzes> cabrey: even if i return to the default theme, its still there?
[04:05] <vopen2> cabrey: dpkg -c works! thanks. i found the packages in /var/cache/apt/archives
[04:05] <buntuNull> howto force mount ext3 ?
[04:05] <Kyothine> i only used it on my old desktop
[04:05] <fccf> Firefishe: if you log out and do nothing it will log back in automatically
[04:05] <minimec> elad: Do you have a ATI graphics adapter?
[04:05] <Kyothine> it wouldn't work any other way
[04:05] <gasquetfan> darlek: can I talk to you in private chat if you don't mind... its quite confusing in mains..
[04:05] <sebsebseb> Kyothine:  Wubi can give you weird issues and stuff
[04:05] <elad> No. NVIDIA.
[04:05] <elad> It was working fine up until now.
[04:05] <Kyothine> does it do anything with networking in particular?
[04:05] <elad> I even rebooted after upgrading to 9.04, and all was well.
[04:05] <cabrey> ratzes, have you tried to reinstall your theme?
[04:05] <Firefishe> fccf:  Will that have enabled the nvidia kernel module?
[04:05] <ratzes> cabrey: yes
[04:05] <sebsebseb> !xorg | elad
[04:05] <elad> Then, I had a little trouble with my .bashrc, and I reverted it to whatever it was before, and rebooted. Then, I go this problem.
[04:06] <ratzes> cabrey: the new theme is using the apperance menu app, the old one was using epidermis
[04:06] <buntuNull> Ubuntu Deleted My Files!
[04:06] <elad> sebsebseb: I didn't change resolution or anything similar prior to the problem manifesting.
[04:06] <fccf> Firefishe: probably not ... you just want to try things before you do a real install?
[04:06] <buntuNull> with that check ext3 things
[04:06] <buntuNull> on bootup
[04:06] <sebsebseb> Kyothine: no it's a hack for Windows, it put's  it inside Windows in a file, and  does the boot loader stuff
[04:06] <buntuNull> not everything is los
[04:06] <cabrey> !enter | buntuNull
[04:06] <buntuNull> but it is in lost&found
[04:07] <sebsebseb> elad: which graphics card?
[04:07] <sebsebseb> elad: also can you can run commands  still?
[04:07] <Kyothine> so then i probably shouldn't use wubi for any /good/ computers, right?
[04:07] <elad> NVIDIA, 8800.
[04:07] <bigboss__> cabrey, i just gived a test print page put is "elaborating" datas from 2 minutes... it's strange right?
[04:07] <sebsebseb> Kyothine: indeed
[04:07] <elad> sebsebseb?
[04:07] <Kyothine> alright, thakns
[04:07] <etk> if anyone has an idea how to get my sound from the firewire to the crative labs SB audigy card heres my lspci -> http://paste.ubuntu.com/189407/
[04:07] <sebsebseb> Kyothine: even your old one,  if you put the correct distro on
[04:07] <elad> The problem appears to be with the session, not with X.
[04:07] <sebsebseb> Kyothine: it would be so much better than Wubi
[04:07] <snowrichard> elad have you used sudo to run an X app? I did that and had to delete the .ICE* (authority file or something like that)
[04:07] <cabrey> bigboss__, it usually doesn't take 2 minutes
[04:08] <Kyothine> k, ill burn a cd. thanks
[04:08] <sebsebseb> elad: nevermind  I am not sure
[04:08] <bigboss__> cabrey, i know xD
[04:08] <elad> snowrichard: I don't know how to do that.
[04:08] <Firefishe> fccf:  the laptop I'm trying 9.04 out on tonight--right now--has 8.10 working nicely.  I can always upgrade via synaptic's update manager(my preferred manager for either gnome or kde, period!) and that's probably easier on an already installed system.  I just want to test the nividia driver with Jaunty.
[04:08] <buntuNull> Is  ubuntu broken??  when I go into the directoryy lost&found it does not show up anything. It tells me it cannot show me that.. but on windows vista with ex2fsd tool it shows me the contents in lost&found..
[04:08] <cabrey> buntuNull, use sudo
[04:08] <Firefishe> fccf:  nvidia, rather.
[04:08] <buntuNull> cabrey: I used sudo
[04:09] <saprophyte> i know my laptop has ati radeon graphics how can I tell what chipset and driver to download? Using jaunty
[04:09] <sebsebseb> !ati
[04:09] <cabrey> bigboss__, delete it I guess and try 3010 this time
[04:09] <cabrey> buntuNull, and what is the exact error message
[04:09] <BeatlesFan> saprophyte, you don't need to download a chipset.. the card has one already
[04:09] <bigboss__> cabrey, u mean itno the string that i pasted before?
[04:09] <fccf> Firefishe: try a logout see what happens, got an extra harddrive laying around install 9.04 on that to test w/o upgrading
[04:10] <BeatlesFan> and a chipset can not be downloaded.. it refers to hardware
[04:10] <elad> So, I'm just fucked? So much for my linux adventure?
[04:10] <sebsebseb> !language | elad
[04:10] <cabrey> bigboss__, yea instead of 3000 try 3010
[04:10] <bigboss__> ok
[04:10] <minimec> elad: hmmm... Why don't you login in a console and rename .bashrc to .bashrc.old. Then start the xserver again and login. If that was the only thing you changed...
[04:10] <Firefishe> fccf:  Well, the extra hard drive isn't viable, I don't have one.
[04:10] <buntuNull> cabrey: This works without the -o force, but it doesn't show me stuff in lost&found instead it tells me, "Cannot open director lost&found"   when I open the directory  -> sudo mount -o force /dev/sdc1 /mnt
[04:10] <Firefishe> fccf:  but it can't hurt to log out and see what happens.
[04:10] <_2eXtreme> guys ive been wanting to give back to the community for a while now, and i was wondering if anyone could suggest a project for me to work on, say in development. my main strengths lay in java, but id be willing to give anything a try...
[04:10] <Firefishe> fccf:  ah, experimentation, muahahahah ;)
[04:11] <cabrey> buntuNull, is your "lost" data on the main (system) drive or an additional drive?
[04:11] <fccf> Firefishe: sounds like evil fun
[04:11] <sebsebseb> !contribute |  _2eXtreme
[04:11] <darlek> anyone, what's the factoid for resetting gnome, metacity etc, it details deleting the directories etc.
[04:11] <buntuNull> cabrey: in additional drive
[04:11] <elad> minimec: I tried that, and it did me no good.
[04:11] <elad> What's the new alt-ctrl-backspace in 9.04, btw?
[04:11] <buntuNull> cabrey: it is ext3 formatted
[04:11] <cabrey> buntuNull, have you run fsck on it?
[04:12] <BeatlesFan> !elaborate | darlek
[04:12] <sebsebseb> darlek: don't think there is one
[04:12] <coz_> elad,   there is no new one
[04:12] <bigboss__> cabrey, at list now when i try to print it says an error xD
[04:12] <elad> brb
[04:12] <buntuNull> cabrey: and contains important data, I've to write some notes, I've got a seminar on AI in some hours.. :(
[04:12] <GNICK> dontzap
[04:12] <buntuNull> cabrey: fsc deleted my data^^^and put it into lost+found
[04:12] <coz_> elad,   the corrrect way is either log off or   crlg+alt+F1  then login then sudo  /etc/init.d/gdm restart
[04:13] <coz_> or kdm restart
[04:13] <cabrey> buntuNull, no it did not, if there was something wrong with the FS, then it actually recovered it for you
[04:13] <buntuNull> cabrey: I cannot risk to delete it forever. the data is there I could open it up on windows
[04:13] <BeatlesFan> buntunull, if it put it into lost*found it didn't delete it , did it
[04:13] <darlek> !dontzap |elad
[04:13] <jamiejackson> what's the trick to being able to resolve my home network's host names (without something manual on every machine, like /etc/hosts)
[04:13] <Cosmo1> anyone know of a linux program that will connect to a ventrilo server , I have been fighting with vent for 2 days to try to get it to work in wine and no luck
[04:13] <cabrey> buntuNull, then use your windows machine, copy the important data over and we can try to fix this without worrying
[04:14] <buntuNull> cabrey: The thing is, I could open it up on windows with ext2fsd, but not on linux which is really strange
[04:14] <fccf> Cosmo1: vintrilo is a proprietry protocol.. you won;t get it to work
[04:14] <Firefishe> fccf:  Well, I logged out, it dropped me to a terminal.  All I had to do was type:  startx  ..  and all was well. :)  Seems to be working.
[04:15] <fccf> Firefishe: wanna test nvidia .. glxgears
[04:15] <Firefishe> fccf:  text and overall look is sharper.
[04:15] <Firefishe> fccf:  ah yes
[04:15] <buntuNull> cabrey: isn't it possible on ubuntu to access the lost+found directory ?
[04:15] <Firefishe> fccf:  the gears :)
[04:15] <Firefishe> thank you
[04:15] <buntuNull> cabrey: I dislike booting up vista. do not like it, takes too long to bootup etc.
[04:16] <cabrey> buntuNull, just boot it up so that we can make sure the important data is safe
[04:16] <jamiejackson> my question answered here: http://www.poromenos.org/node/53
[04:16] <Firefishe> fccf:  it works
[04:17] <Firefishe> fccf:  Now my more important consideration is whether an upgrade from 8.10 to 9.04 should proceed.
[04:17] <buntuNull> cabrey: I aggree :/ I will copy all my data to my other 1tb ext drive and then copy it back on the formated external drive
[04:17] <elad> I've just discovered the oddest thing. When I log in as my normal user - elad - I can't see anything with ls. It's as though my home directory were empty. But when I "sudo su", then ls, I see everything's still there! What the hell?! BTW, I'm without a GUI. Problems might be related. Help?
[04:18] <cabrey> buntuNull, that would be a good idea :)
[04:18] <buntuNull> cabrey: Shall I should fomat it fat32 or ext3 ?
[04:18] <cabrey> buntuNull, which drive?
[04:18] <FoxBlitzz> elad: Erratic file permissions?
[04:18] <sebsebseb> !ntfs | buntuNull
[04:18] <elad> Never mind, problem solved.
[04:19] <sebsebseb> !ext3 | buntuNull
[04:19] <buntuNull> cabrey: the external drive with my important data, after copying it to another external drive
[04:19] <sebsebseb> buntuNull: no need to use Fat32 anymore when it comes to Linux
[04:19] <sebsebseb> buntuNull: and Windows
[04:19] <elad> Is it normal for ~/bin to be the very first thing in my $PATH?
[04:19] <Orbixx> How can I stop UDP packets aimed towards port 80 from affecting Apache?
[04:19] <buntuNull> it is important to access my disk on windows / linux
[04:19] <sebsebseb> buntuNull: you can use NTFS,  and Ubuntu can  read and write to it no problem, as long as Windows shut it down properly
[04:19] <cabrey> buntuNull, oh you mean after you copy all the data over temporarily, you want to reformat the original drive?
[04:20] <buntuNull> cabrey: yes
[04:20] <Cosmo1> fccf: I see people on the ubuntu forums that have gotten it to work in wine, and a friend has seen a linux program that is supposed to work but he cannot find his bookmark for it
[04:20] <fccf> Firefishe: thats up to you... Personally ill stick with my LTS
[04:20] <darlek> elad, the path is there to look for files that are commonly run.  looking in a bin folder is quite normal
[04:20] <buntuNull> sebsebseb: I will never ever trust NTFS again it deleted 320GB Data with chkdsk, unrecoverable :/
[04:21] <buntuNull> I wish zfs was here!!!!
[04:21] <fccf> Cosmo1: try #winehq for help with wine- we support ubuntu here and not commercial sw
[04:21] <sebsebseb> buntuNull: well NTFS is better than  Fat32, however Ext3 is better than both :)
[04:21] <elad> Never mind, problem solved.
[04:21] <buntuNull> oh man the sun is rising up... not again.
[04:21] <xnox`> the intel update from x-org edgers PPA was wonderful today. My desktop is the fastest it ever was.
[04:21] <Firefishe> fccf:  Is 8.10 an LTS?  Or 9.04?
[04:21] <sebsebseb> buntuNull: where you from?
[04:21] <buntuNull> got to go, thank you cabrey and all others
[04:21] <cabrey> Firefishe, 8.04 is LTS
[04:22] <buntuNull> sebsebseb: DE
[04:22] <fccf> !LTS | Firefishe
[04:22] <xnox`> I'm using rc8 kernel and my wifi stopped working. Any hints on how should be troubleshooting it?
[04:22] <sebsebseb> buntuNull: Germeny ok
[04:22] <elad> Other question: Is it normal for ~/bin to be the very first thing in my $PATH?
[04:22] <cabrey> xnox`, you're using a developmental kernel
[04:22] <BeatlesFan> elad, probably doesn't matter
[04:22] <cabrey> xnox`, really not supported here
[04:22] <EEMPHASISS> fccf: finally: couldn't find the file normally, instead searched for the font name it looked like: the file is .gtkrc-2.0 & the first comment line reads "# -- THEME AUTO-WRITTEN DO NOT EDIT"
[04:22] <xnox`> cabrey: ok sorry
[04:23] <darlek> elad...yes..  next question.  why are you worried about this?
[04:23] <elad> BeatlesFan: What I'm worried about is that I didn't put it there. What determines the PATH to begin with?
[04:23] <xnox`> cabrey: and ubuntu+1 will not support it either cause i'm not running full karmic?
[04:23] <Linuz2009> I'm unable to upgrade Linux generic
[04:23] <BeatlesFan> elad: it's a default, you can add directories to it
[04:23] <darlek> elad...linux uses path to organize where files are found.
[04:23] <cabrey> xnox`, is that a channel for karmic?
[04:23] <elad> What determines the PATH? I know how to tweak it with .bashrc, but what defines it to begin with?
[04:23] <sebsebseb> !9.10 | cabrey
[04:23] <fccf> EEMPHASISS: not sure ... don't know much bout gtk configs
[04:23] <Firefishe> fccf, cabrey:  8.04 is a little dated for my hardware.  This laptop is brand new and the graphics engine and other matters--like 802.11b/g/a and ethernet--are also recent.  Since I also install backports and other weird stuff, anyway, and with little or no problems, i'm not so concerned about LTS.
[04:24] <cabrey> sebsebseb, thanks
[04:24] <sebsebseb> cabrey: np
[04:24] <Linuz2009> it said that it had dependency problem
[04:24] <kewlburg> hi
[04:24] <darlek> elad... linux
[04:24] <cabrey> xnox`, they might support it there is that is the kernel in use in the alpha
[04:24] <BeatlesFan> elad: I'm not sure, I'm guessing the install script probably sets it up
[04:24] <elad> darlek: What part, though?
[04:24] <fccf> kewlburg: hello
[04:24] <Mob[ST]er> Hello guys ! I have ubuntu on my machine that I install with WUBI (EXCELLENT move BTW!), now I would like to access my thunderbird emails that I have with windows and /or access my ubuntu email from windows .... Kind of a thunderbird synch between Ubuntu and Windows.. Is it possible to do that?
[04:24] <Firefishe> fccf, cabrey:  I was just wondering if 9.04 might have some usefulness over 8.10.
[04:24] <Linuz2009> but the dependency program is gone
[04:24] <elad> And 9.04, by default, sets up what PATH?
[04:24] <sebsebseb> Mob[ST]er: Wubi is not an excellent thing at all
[04:24] <Linuz2009> I can't find it anywhere
[04:24] <Cosmic_Karma> i wanna buy a karmix koala shirt
[04:24] <cabrey> Firefishe, biggest issue is graphics card
[04:24] <Orbixx> Mob[ST]er: Use IMAP.
[04:24] <EEMPHASISS> fccf: it appears that the Font Preferences modifies many different config files, and it looks like one file was missed.
[04:24] <DaRk-HiBeRnUsS62> LOL
[04:25] <Cosmic_Karma> why does usa ubuntu store not take paypal?
[04:25] <kewlburg> i m here just learnig more about system!!! :]
[04:25] <sebsebseb> 1ot | Cosmic_Karma
[04:25] <Mob[ST]er> sebsebseb: It works very fine for me ;)
[04:25] <sebsebseb> !ot
[04:25] <kewlburg> fccf: ok?
[04:25] <sebsebseb> !lol > DaRk-HiBeRnUsS62
[04:25] <darlek> elad.. the os organizes itself with a formal directory tree.  these are default locations.
[04:25] <bthompson> hey guys i am setting up a second webserver for failover...what would be the best way to ensure that each server stays configured the same exact way...active/active...also i am going to allow the firewalls to load balance accross the 2 as well..
[04:25] <Linuz2009> heres the message that I got linux-generic:
[04:25] <Linuz2009>   Depends: linux-image-generic (=<IP_ADDRESS>.17) but <IP_ADDRESS>.16 is to be installed
[04:25] <Linuz2009>   Depends: linux-restricted-modules-generic (=<IP_ADDRESS>.17) but <IP_ADDRESS>.16 is to be installed
[04:25] <Mob[ST]er> Orbixx: I have considered but I have like 6 accounts for wich I don't have access to Imap for most of them ....
[04:25] <sebsebseb> Mob[ST]er: well it's  hack for Windows,  put's it in a file there, does the stuff to bootloaders, and people can get odd errors with Wubi
[04:25] <cabrey> bthompson, /join #ubuntu-server
[04:26] <Firefishe> cabrey:  I'm of the opinion--based on my recent *experimentation* ;-), that the proprietary nvidia driver--180--is working nicely with this live cd.  About three weeks ago, when I did a test-run with the update manager to update to Jaunty from Intrepid on this machine, the system said--at that time--the proprietary driver wasn't available.
[04:26] <Firefishe> cabrey:  Apparently, that problem is now solved.
[04:26] <Orbixx> Mob[ST]er: Then there's no other proper way of doing what you need, sorry.
[04:26] <fccf> kewlburg: I just said hello ... do you need  help with anything
[04:26] <BeatlesFan> firefishe, I couldn't get it to recognize my nvidia 6200 card
[04:26] <Mob[ST]er> Orbixx: thanks for your time
[04:26] <Flannel> Cosmic_Karma: We don't have anything to do with the store.  You'll have to write them an email
[04:26] <DaRk-HiBeRnUsS62> omg
[04:26] <BeatlesFan> ubuntu wouldn't even boot
[04:26] <Firefishe> BeatlesFan:  Let me see what chipset this laptop is using.
[04:26] <kewlburg> fccf: ok man!!!
[04:26] <darlek> elad, as well as you install programs, some will also add to the path in order to be found by Ubuntu.  Indexing of files is also a background job.  Programs like whereis use this information
[04:26] <cabrey> Firefishe, nvidia seems to be fine with jaunty, it is just irritated ATI customers whose card's support was dropped and now they can't use it with 9.04
[04:27] <sh4d0w> lol
[04:27] <cabrey> Firefishe, also, the !intel problem
[04:27] <kewlburg> fccf: no problems
[04:27] <Cosmic_Karma> i wanted to buy sticks and put em all over everything in the city
[04:27] <elad> Thanks.
[04:27] <Cosmic_Karma> stickers
[04:27] <BeatlesFan> I could get my intel chipset to work but not my nvidia.. go figure
[04:27] <shiznebit> Hi, Im currently trying to get my Ubuntu 9.04 system to Wake On Lan correctly. I have set "ethtool -s eth0 g" in a startup script. I have edited  "/etc/init.d/halt" to "NETDOWN=no" . I have additionally set my NIC in "/proc/acpi/wake" to *Enabled* for both S3 and S4 states. After all this it works, BUT only for 10 seconds after going into suspend. I don't understand what else i can do. How...
[04:27] <shiznebit> ...can i make Wake-On-Lan to function properly ?
[04:28] <sh4d0w> hi i got a problem trying to inject a sound module into my kernel
[04:28] <Cosmic_Karma> for ubuntu and kubuntu, and get like a shirt and some pens
[04:28] <Orbixx> Does anybody know how I can mitigate UDP floods?
[04:28] <Guest7573> hello
[04:28] <sh4d0w> some libs are missing
[04:28] <Guest7573> any guide for ubuntu 9.04 on the new macbook pro?.. wireless and other stuff is not working
[04:28] <Guest7573> ?
[04:28] <Flannel> Cosmic_Karma: This is a support channel, you're welcome to continue talking about plastering a city in #ubuntu-offtopic however

[04:29] <tritium> Guest7573: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MacBookPro
[04:29] <Flannel> DaRk-HiBeRnUsS62: Is there something we can help you with tonight?
[04:29] <Linuz2009> does any one know how to install this package linux-headers-2.6.28-13-generic
[04:29] <fccf> !lol | DaRk-HiBeRnUsS62
[04:30] <Firefishe> !intel
[04:30] <darlek> Linuz2009, try synaptic, as well you can use apt-cache search linux-headers--etc
[04:31] <Linuz2009> let me try
[04:31] <darlek> Linuz2009, otherwise try kernel.org
[04:31] <cabrey> Linuz2009, that kernel has not been released by ubuntu updates
[04:31] <LightTitan> Anyone know of a good program to test the read speed of my SSD?
[04:31] <darlek> Linuz2009, definitely then from the kernal org site then
[04:31] <cabrey> LightTitan, uhh copy a hugh file from it?
[04:32] <pepperjack> LightTitan: sdparm?
[04:32] <pepperjack> not sure if you can use that for ssd
[04:32] <darlek> !kernel
[04:33] <ZaszZz> just installed ubuntu 9.04, clicked guest sessions to see what it does. apparently it crashes the computer and makes the operating system not load :(
[04:33] <ZaszZz> anyone have an idea of what to do?
[04:33] <Firefishe> cabrey:  I don't have an intel graphics card.  I have an Asus G50V-X1, and it has an nvidia PCIe card/512mb discrete vRAM.  Thing is, lshw and lspci don't seem to be listing the type.  Any ideas on how I can find out what I have without cracking the bottom and twelve screws to read the thing off the card?
[04:34] <jamiejackson> when doing sudo apt-get installs, i routinely get hung downloads, so i interrupt them, then run the install again to resume the stuck downloads. this happens so routinely that i've gotten annoyed to ask about it here. know what's going on?
[04:34] <cabrey> Firefishe, you want the chipset?
[04:34] <jamiejackson> ...that i've gotten annoyed *enough* to ask about it here...
[04:34] <Firefishe> cabrey:  Yes.
[04:34] <LightTitan> thanks cabrey and pepperjack
[04:34] <Firefishe> cabrey:  wait
[04:34] <xnox`> jamiejackson: try installing and setting apt-cacher-ng cause that did the trick for me
[04:35] <Flannel> jamiejackson: Try a different mirror.
[04:35] <Firefishe> cabrey:  Nvidia 9800M GS
[04:35] <cabrey> Firefishe, is this a laptop?
[04:35] <Firefishe> Flannel, jamiejackson:  My thoughts, as well.
[04:35] <Firefishe> cabrey:  Yes
[04:35] <elad`> I want "gdt a1 a2 a3" to run "gedit a1 a2 a3 &". No predetermined number of files. How do I do that?
[04:36] <Firefishe> cabrey:  I was so hyper-focused, I forgot the information was right in front of my eyes.
[04:36] <jamiejackson> looks like apt-cacher-ng does the mirroring rotation for me, at a glance
[04:36] <darlek> elad`, look at the alias command... man alias
[04:37] <Firefishe> Like....the little sticker on the top of the handrest area that states:  Graphics By <Logo> nvidia, GeForce 9800M GS/512MB
[04:37] <Firefishe> like, 'doh' ;)
[04:37] <jamiejackson> thx, xnox`, et al, i'll try apt-cacher-ng for a while
[04:37] <Firefishe> Flannel, jamiejackson: I never use the US repositories anymore.
[04:37] <Linuz2009> so how do I install kernel?
[04:37] <Firefishe> sweden is fastest for me ;)
[04:37] <fccf> Firefishe: Invisible hands would be nice
[04:37] <Firefishe> fccf:  heh, no doubt LOL
[04:37] <jamiejackson> okay, good to know, Firefishe
[04:38] <Firefishe> oops
[04:38] <Firefishe> sorry on the lol
[04:38] <Firefishe> (he's been on the 'net for nearly a decade, folks, one would think he'd have learned)
[04:38] <Firefishe> Anyway, my problems are solved, thanks to all who assisted.
[04:39] <Firefishe> I'll take the rest to ubuntu-offtopic ;)
[04:39] <fccf> shift 2 just started for me - so if there are any major probs I'll be around - also doing helpdesk via skype - if anyone wants to pick my brain
[04:39] <elad`> There's probably a special variable in bash for "whatever command line arguments this script was launched with". What is it?

[04:41] <darlek> sounds good ;)

[04:41] <cabrey> RenagadeX, oh good
[04:41] <RenagadeX> cabrey: lol
[04:41] <billywayne> elad`:  $0 is the name of the script.  $1 is the first argument, $2 is the second, so on.
[04:42] <scream> Ok, I have one update available as "recommended".  However, I note that there is no icon in the top right hand of my screen telling me this.  I had to check manually.  The feature setting you directing me to is set to let me know.  Bug?
[04:42] <billywayne> elad`:  #@ and #* are all of them, but they're a little different.
[04:42] <RenagadeX> cabrey: I mounted it in media\

[04:48] <darlek> scream, I see, so one package is new and the rest are to be removed...  but the notification icon is not displayed...
[04:49] <mib_14wrsk3p> dunks0r: ended up just putting windows back
[04:49] <dunks0r> pepperjack: yeah, bit messy, might just buy her a cowon player and be done with it.
[04:49] <voss> mib, switching people doesnt work, finding people with no computer experience and training them on ubuntu....hmmm.
[04:50] <acr0nym> can someone explain to me while I'm awake at 5.49 in the morning????
[04:50] <acr0nym> I went to bed like 3 hours ago LOL
[04:50] <darlek> scream, I'm afraid I just use command line to update not the notifier
[04:50] <Guest2222> I adjusted ssh on one of my boxes to listen on a non-standard port.  Is there any way to configure ssh on the client side so it knows that connections to certain addresses should default to something other than 22?
[04:50] <DigitalKiwi> i've heard you can sync ipod touch via sshfs
[04:50] <Linuz2009> I'm stuck
[04:50] <xunil> so i just upgraded to Ubuntu 9.04, installed my video drivers for my nvidia card, and now my panels are stuck on the top of my left monitor.... and there isn't a checkbox for "Lock Panel"
[04:50] <DigitalKiwi> or something :/
[04:50] <voss> digital, if its not one gui button, most people wont care or listen
[04:50] <mib_14wrsk3p> voss: i myself am new only been using linux for about 1.5 weeks straight now though, before that only tried it few times
[04:50] <Cosmo1> anyone know how I can get the devorak layout to stay, I can get it to switch by using "setxkbmap dvorak" in a terminal but it only seems to last for that session
[04:50] <Linuz2009> Why can't I update my kernel?
[04:51] <mib_14wrsk3p> anyway does anyone know why my phone isnt detecting my bluetooth even though i have it set to always visible?
[04:51] <TwoToneSpirit> Welcome julia!
[04:51] <Guest2222> Cosmo1: stick it in your xinitrc?
[04:51] <darlek> Cosmo1, save it as a file then run this file as a script under System Preferences Startup Applications
[04:51] <voss> a linux music player doesnt have to play the protected itunes but it should play everything else
[04:51] <gogeta> mib_14wrsk3p 1995
[04:51] <DigitalKiwi> mib_14wrsk3p: that totally sounded like something an addict would say, "I only tried it once or twice before, but now I do it full time..." are you a linux junky now ? =D
[04:51] <gogeta> heh
[04:52] <gogeta> mib_14wrsk3p i would check to see if the laptops bluetooth is on
[04:52] <voss> notebook linux actually got me running linux on the linux on my desktop full time
[04:52] <gogeta> voss i got netboot and a old dell w linux
[04:53] <mib_14wrsk3p> DigitalKiwi: lol im getting there :P the problem i had before is i always had problems that i coudlnt solve or no one would help me solve like major problems :P
[04:53] <gogeta> and a xp desktop
[04:53] <yEOnjAE> there is who attends to DEFCON 17 now?
[04:53] <voss> linux works better on netbooks than it does on desktops
[04:53] <gogeta> mib_14wrsk3p if we dont tell we it means we dont knoe
[04:53] <mib_14wrsk3p> gogeta: yeah i got it connected lol im trying to see if i can get my phone to use my computer's bluetooth lol, not going well so far
[04:53] <gogeta> voss no
[04:53] <fccf> voss: so untrue
[04:54] <darlek> voss, netbooks use a custom kernel for the hardware.  linux is easy to customize with OEM parts
[04:54] <owen1> will this add user oren to group yuka - sudo usermod -a yuka oren ?
[04:54] <mib_14wrsk3p> but just one thing, ubuntu needs to work on its boot time, windows 7 boots a lot faster, and hibernation mode, if they can fix those two things then it'll be pretty much perfect for me
[04:54] <elad`> How do I do integer comparison in bash?
[04:54] <DigitalKiwi> first you're using ubuntu then you get addicted to tinkering and move onto greener pastures
[04:54] <gogeta> darlek anything is if all systems where oem like apples why you think there so rock solid
[04:54] <voss> im not saying it doesnt work on desktops im just saying linux on my notebook came before linux on my desktop and thats why
[04:55] <DigitalKiwi> <3 arch
[04:55] <tritium> DigitalKiwi: stay on topic, please
[04:55] <mib_14wrsk3p> the sad thing is windows is a lot easier to fix, at least for me, if there's somehting wrong
[04:55] <gogeta> voss netbooks are oem so 1 setup works on all unlike a desktop
[04:55] <DigitalKiwi> windows easy to fix? everything is hidden
[04:55] <DigitalKiwi> and spyware/adware/viruses?
[04:55] <DigitalKiwi> plz
[04:55] <SirStan> how do I connect to a share on my windows pc from ubuntu?
[04:55] <acr0nym> idd ^
[04:56] <voss> now i have my pcchips motherboard running an amd phenom 9750
[04:56] <dunks0r> mib_14wrsk3p: boot time in 9.04 was noticeably quicker than 8.04, never really seen the huge hangup people have with boot times, whats a extra 10 seconds
[04:56] <Guest2222> SirStan: Use samba
[04:56] <gogeta> sirstan it should aruldy be configured
[04:56] <Cosmo1> darlek: do I need to do anything special to run it as a scriptZ
[04:56] <shiznebit> you don't realize how much could be done with a PC until you move to Linux
[04:56] <DigitalKiwi>  22:56:26 up 208 days, 8 min,  9 users,  load average: 0.00, 0.03, 0.00
[04:56] <mib_14wrsk3p> DigitalKiwi: well i dont have problems with spyware/viruses ;)
[04:56] <SirStan> gogeta: is there some sort of "connect to smb server" thing somewhere?
[04:56] <gogeta> sirstan just type //your ip in windows exployer or from run
[04:56] <Cosmo1> script?
[04:56] <DigitalKiwi> who needs boot times if you never reboot?
[04:56] <SirStan> gogeta: my ubuntu has windows explorer?
[04:56] <darlek> Cosmo1, in terminal, run chmod +x scriptname, and that will allow Ubuntu to run it when you login next time
[04:56] <dunks0r> DigitalKiwi, indeed!
[04:57] <gogeta> sirstan yoou can do it from the ubuntu file exployer to
[04:57] <gogeta> same command
[04:57] <acr0nym> you mean nautilus?
[04:57] <gogeta> shure
[04:57] <SirStan> Whats the "ubuntu file explorer"
[04:57] <mib_14wrsk3p> dunks0r: well see let me tell u like after grub is done, it goes to black screen for about 30 seconds and then from there another like 10 seconds till im in a workable enviroment
[04:57] <darlek> Cosmo1, once it sees it in the Startup Applications area, then it runs the script as if you ran it yourself, thus saving you the time ;)
[04:57] <gogeta> nautilus
[04:57] <darlek> SirStan, nautilus
[04:57] <acr0nym> you're welcome
[04:57] <Loganhoup> !nautilus | sirstan
[04:57] <voss> shiz,  problem is the cute girls have macs not linux
[04:57] <DigitalKiwi> though sometimes I wish that computer was a distro with release cycle instead of a rolling release, would be easier to install stuff :(
[04:58] <Loganhoup> seriously?
[04:58] <dunks0r> mib_14wrsk3p, are you dual booting?
[04:58] <Loganhoup> !nautilus
[04:58] <rikki_max> how do you find out what dialup modems are installed by terminal
[04:58] <scream> darlek, ok. :)  I mean I can manually run the updater manager, I just miss the icon that was in the last release.
[04:58] <gogeta> !dialup
[04:58] <mib_14wrsk3p> dunks0r: nah, but then again i do have an older computer
[04:58] <mib_14wrsk3p> i mean all together it takes about 55 seconds let me say
[04:58] <voss> dial up? *shudders*
[04:58] <Timboe> is there any way to get ubuntu tolook like windows
[04:58] <elad`> if [ $# -ne 0 ] - What's wrong with that? (Bash script.)
[04:58] <SirStan> gogeta: i entered smb://servername and it says "0 shares"
[04:59] <gogeta> timboe yea
[04:59] <mib_14wrsk3p> Timboe: why would u want that?
[04:59] <dunks0r> Timboe, why?
[04:59] <gogeta> sirstan you gotta setup a share from eatch box you wanna do
[04:59] <fccf> scream try rightclicking on the top panel and add applet -- add update-notivier
[04:59] <mib_14wrsk3p> Timboe: yeah. it's possible, but why lol
[04:59] <dunks0r> Timboe, www.gnome-look.org
[04:59] <fccf> *notifier
[04:59] <gogeta> sirstan ubuntu should aruldy have home shared
[04:59] <SirStan> gogeta: Windows 7 shares everything out..
[04:59] <gogeta> sirstan so just setup windows
[04:59] <DigitalKiwi> Timboe: there are distros out there that try to look like windows
[04:59] <_2eXtreme> guys anyone here have some experience with audio settings in ubuntu?
[04:59] <SirStan> gogeta: windows is setup.
[05:00] <gogeta> sirstan type the windows local ip
[05:00] <Cosmo1> still a little slow typing with the devorak layout but liking it so far
[05:00] <Tyrath> is it just me or does the latest cups update use a large amount of the CPU? and takes incredible amounts of time to print files?
[05:00] <mib_14wrsk3p> windows 7 loads up in like 40 seconds for me max from me pressing the button and getting to workable enviroment, it is fast
[05:01] <Tyrath> because for some weird reason when I try to print files it's incredible slow and the comp lags before the print
[05:01] <gogeta> sirstan you can also try the networking tab in nautlus but i never had luck with making that work with a windows box
[05:01] <SirStan> gogeta: still an empty list when i use ip
[05:01] <SirStan> gogeta: no login prompt
[05:01] <gogeta> sirstan then its not sharing
[05:01] <SirStan> gogeta: it is
[05:01] <mib_14wrsk3p> anyone here know a way i can get hibernation working, last time i did it, it messed everything up had to go into recovery
[05:01] <darlek> !samba
[05:01] <gogeta> linux would see it if it was
[05:02] <gogeta> maybe the ports are blocked
[05:02] <acr0nym> anyone here familiar with pcm alsa plugins?
[05:02] <SirStan> gogeta: nope.
[05:02] <dunks0r> mib_14wrsk3p, i'd take the added 15secs for getting rid of windows
[05:02] <Oprtz> hi there, i am using wifi to connect to the internet, the problem i face is that, some time my computer says no internet (but it is connected to the router and has an ip address) and some time it works flawlessly, i m using 9.04 ubuntu, do u guys facing the same problem ?
[05:02] <_2eXtreme> guys how can i set the default volume level of my digital-1 slider in the volume control?
[05:02] <voss> im amazed how well ubuntu prints now, its easier setting up a network printer in ubuntu than windows
[05:03] <Oprtz> voss: i agreed with u on that :)
[05:03] <mib_14wrsk3p> dunks0r: see here's the thing, after i boot in, i can hibernate windows 7, so when i turn on my comp again i can get working again in like 25 seconds, in linux hibernate doesnt work for me ;)
[05:03] <dunks0r> voss, yeah i had a canon mp160 that would not work for years and now easy bang done!
[05:03] <gogeta> oprts myy wifi card did that to i switched it to ndis and wala fixed
[05:03] <voss> dunks and they finally got logitech webcams to work
[05:04] <DigitalKiwi> mib_14wrsk3p: why doesn't hibernate work for you?
[05:04] <Oprtz> gogeta: ndis ? i couldn't get u ,
[05:04] <SirStan> so is there no UI way to connect to a windows server?
[05:04] <gogeta> !ndiswrapper
[05:04] <dunks0r> voss, very good distro, only problem is intel graphics suck, blacklisted the x3100 for compiz... tho it seems its better for karmkoala
[05:04] <voss> the linux guts have made serious strides in the last year or two
[05:05] <DigitalKiwi> voss: yeah it may be easy to set up a network printer, but full resolution? please
[05:05] <fccf> SirStan: sure there is tsclient
[05:05] <darlek> SirStan, Nautilus is your network GUI as well.  I don't use windows but I ssh with Nautilus with Connect to Server command in the menus of Nautilus
[05:05] <mib_14wrsk3p> DigitalKiwi: idk last time i did it, it was in linux mint like 1 week ago, afterwards i couldnt get into my compute rin regular mode
[05:05] <SirStan> darlek: nautilus wont list any shares on the server...
[05:05] <Zasz> hi, can anyone help me with my dual boot ubuntu installation or is my laptop stuck with windows xp? :(
[05:05] <voss> nvidia ion will actually make wine a gaming option for netbooks
[05:06] <StevensUbuntuTri> Oftentimes when I turn my computer on, I will get a PXE error and it will say operating system not found.  I have to turn the computer off and then back on a few times until it eventually boots and works properly.  Does anyone know what this may be about?  I am afraid that one day it will not work.
[05:06] <SirStan> StevensUbuntuTri: sounds like your ide controller/cable/drive are having an issue
[05:06] <dunks0r> Highly recommend Songbird, if anyones looking for a itunes-ish player.... not in repo's but well worth the install
[05:06] <fccf> Zasz: Can you be more spacific - if someone knows the answer they probably will tell ou
[05:06] <voss> stevens back up your hard drive asap
[05:07] <fccf> *you
[05:07] <gogeta> dunks0r wine can due itunes as well
[05:07] <Zasz> ubuntu crashed which i clicked 'guest session' and will no longer load normally, I can choose recovery mode and get access to a root shell, but how do i start up the normal ubuntu os?
[05:07] <StevensUbuntuTri> sirstan: Yes it says PXE error 61 and says something about a cable.  What cable?
[05:07] <fccf> Zasz: have you tried fix xserver from the recovery screen
[05:07] <jamiejackson> I've got a partition that I want to share with the whole family (shared documents, media, etc.), what's a good strategy for doing this, to make the mount point available to all users, and in an obvious place?
[05:08] <SirStan> StevensUbuntuTri: PXE is your network card tryign to boot off your ethernet network.
[05:08] <SirStan> StevensUbuntuTri: and your PC shouldnt be PXE booting unless there is no harddrive present..
[05:08] <ubuntunoobneedin> I can't seem to get any plugins to download for anything any ideas why
[05:09] <gogeta> dunks0r also supports all ipods fully via wine
[05:09] <Zasz> fccf: i ran xfix then selected resume normal boot and i get weird graphical artifacts, have to hard reset
[05:09] <baddude> I want to add an app I made to the Ubuntu Universe Repository, is this possible?
[05:09] <voss> sirstan, managed enviroments often have pxe boot first
[05:09] <dunks0r> last i heard itunes 8 didnt support ipod's
[05:09] <dunks0r> in wine
[05:09] <darlek> SirStan, smbclient -L localhost... connection refused or do you get a list?
[05:09] <StevensUbuntuTri> Sirstan: What would you recommend?  It eventually boots correctly, but sometime it takes like 10 times!
[05:09] <Zasz> my problem is identical to this guy http://ubuntuforums.org/showpost.php?p=6078798&postcount=3, except i cannot load the OS at all when i restart
[05:10] <SirStan> darlek: cmd not found
[05:10] <darlek> hmm
[05:10] <jtaji> jamiejackson: how about /media/share
[05:10] <SirStan> voss: uh?
[05:10] <mib_bqvs12z8> so yeah guys how do u do a search again?
[05:11] <SirStan> mib_bqvs12z8: google.com
[05:11] <SirStan> http://pastebin.com/m87c2e8a
[05:11] <mib_bqvs12z8> SirStan: lol nah in ubuntu :P
[05:11] <SirStan> how do i fix that?
[05:11] <SirStan> mib_bqvs12z8: firefox->google.com
[05:11] <billywayne> mib_bqvs12z8:  what're you searching for?
[05:11] <fccf> Zasz: are you running fglrx - or were you before crash?
[05:11] <voss> sirstan, in computer networks with corporate imaging pxe will boot first so that any image commands will take precedence if needed
[05:12] <jamiejackson> jtaji: is there a trick to making a link, on say all their desktops at once? know how windows has the all users, where (i think, IIRC) you can put stuff that's available to everyon  on their desktops?
[05:12] <gartral> I can't seem to call gksu from a launcher
[05:12] <mib_bqvs12z8> for a file lets say music file
[05:12] <SirStan> jamiejackson: nope.
[05:12] <fccf> gartral: try gksudo
[05:12] <jamiejackson> will stuff mounted at /media/share show up in "places" like externally mounted stuff?
[05:12] <billywayne> mib_bqvs12z8:  find / -name *.mp3
[05:12] <juvvi> ri0t`kitty
[05:13] <gartral> fccf: why is there a difference?
[05:13] <darlek> mib_bqvs12z8, man whereis, man find... Places menu has Find Files too...
[05:13] <SirStan> how do i fix this apt-get err: http://pastebin.com/m87c2e8a
[05:13] <fccf> gartral: there shouldn't be but...
[05:13] <Flannel> gartral: There isn't.  But what are you calling?  Just "gksu" or with a command?
[05:13] <voss> sirstan does that make sense?
[05:13] <Zasz> fccf: i installed 9.04 yesterday and haven't changed any driver settings, i do have an ati card though so i have whatever the default driver is
[05:14] <gartral> Flannel: gksu nice -7 gmplayer is the command i'm trying to launch
[05:14] <StevensUbuntuTri> Can anyone help me get my browser to play flash?
[05:14] <Flannel> gartral: try putting the command in quotes
[05:14] <gartral> Flannel: ok, one moment
[05:14] <jrib> !flash > StevensUbuntuTri
[05:14] <SirStan> voss: No.. we tell users to press F12 to pxe boot for imaging.. or use dell open manage to push out bios changes.. pxe boot as first boot would make it pretty trivial to wipe machines
[05:14] <gartral> Flannel: FULL QUOTES OR SUBQUOTES?
[05:15] <gartral> oops
[05:15] <Flannel> gartral: double quotes gksu "stuff"
[05:15] <voss> sirstan we use altiris
[05:15] <jtaji> jamiejackson: you can use /etc/skel but that's only copied when a user is created
[05:15] <Flannel> !away > bk|away
[05:15] <SirStan> voss: my condolenses
[05:15] <gartral> Flannel: that's full quotes
[05:15] <rob235> anyone have a list of media streamers that work with xbox 360? :)
[05:15] <tritium> StevensUbuntuTri: you need to install flashplugin-nonfree
[05:15] <mib_bqvs12z8> gegls from outer space :D
[05:15] <gartral> Flannel: no changes
[05:16] <SirStan> voss: not to compare penises .. but how many machines are you talking?
[05:16] <Flannel> gartral: Does it work from a terminal?
[05:16] <bk|away> Flannel: if it bothers you that much dont look, its a name change, not an away msg, msg me and youll get an away msg
[05:16] <voss> 250 or so, though i generally dont image more than 30 at a time
[05:16] <fccf> Zasz: ok run  dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg -- from recovery root
[05:16] <StevensUbuntuTri> tritium:  I have tried that.  I even tried Gnash, I get the same result with non free, gnash and swfdec
[05:16] <fccf> Zasz: then reboot normally
[05:17] <gartral> Flannel: the icon is just sitting on awn, spinning away, and yes, sudo nice -7 gmplayer does what i want it too from terminal, but, I know I can't call sudo directly from a launcher
[05:17] <ctmjr> ouch
[05:17] <Flannel> gartral: no, no, try gksu yadda from the terminal
[05:17] <voss> sirstan its an elementary school
[05:18] <SirStan> voss: one of my clients (an edu) we rebuild all the labs weekly, entirely scripted.  powered on remotely, pxe enabled, ghost loaded, image pushed, machine pulls software/settings via gpo.. name from dns..
[05:18] <jamiejackson> actually, jtaji, it does show up in "places" so that's accessible enough, thx
[05:18] <mib_bqvs12z8> ok guys, do i watch dark blue or black christmas(1974)?
[05:18] <gartral> Flannel: can i pm you the 3line output/
[05:18] <gartral> ?
[05:18] <jtaji> jamiejackson: yep it does
[05:18] <Flannel> gartral: Sure, or pastebin
[05:18] <SirStan> voss: we multicast 300 machines at once
[05:18] <StevensUbuntuTri> tirtium:  I even tried a different browser (epiphany)  I get the same result (poor performance on youtube, and no function on any other website with flash)
[05:19] <StevensUbuntuTri> even hulu
[05:19] <voss> sirstan, i used to be able to lab blast like that, multicasting is much more simple
[05:19] <mib_bqvs12z8> StevensUbuntuTri: yeah, flash kind of lags down ubuntu in general
[05:19] <voss> now they want us to use rips and base images
[05:19] <mib_bqvs12z8> SirStan: multicast as in?
[05:20] <SirStan> mib_bqvs12z8: as in.. a server sends out 5gb of data.. and its pushed to 300 machiens accross 5 buildings once..
[05:20] <SirStan> so all machines are imaged with the same image.. at the same time..
[05:20] <voss> mib, take a computer and copy it to a bunch of other computers like ghost
[05:20] <mib_bqvs12z8> SirStan: yeah like a distro image right?
[05:20] <StevensUbuntuTri> mib_bqvs12z8: Is there a remedy for this?  The flash movies look like they are loading, but never do
[05:20] <mib_bqvs12z8> StevensUbuntuTri: they dont even play?
[05:21] <SirStan> mib_bqvs12z8: the contents are irrelevant.. it could be plan9, bsd, linux, etc.
[05:21] <jamiejackson> jtaji: the mount point, does that need to be wide open (777) as is the case for the auto-generated mount points of my USB drives?
[05:21] <chronographer> hi all i'm having trouble setting up my second ethernet card. First card (eth0) set using wicd connects fine, browsing internet through that. I have another card which I like yo use for crossover cable for file transfer but I can't set it up. I tried statically in interfaces and also tried using wicd. What are suggestions.
[05:22] <pspsampsp> how can i disable usb write cache?
[05:22] <chronographer> pinging my laptop which is connected gives: ping: sendmsg: Operation not permitted
[05:22] <SirStan> voss: i'd kill for a bios option to install from ISO from a url.
[05:22] <mib_bqvs12z8> so no answer for me? dark blue or black christmas (1974)?
[05:22] <gartral> how  do i "part" a pm in irssi from a terminal that doesn't handle ctrl-c real well?
[05:23] <mib_bqvs12z8> chronographer: sudo it
[05:23] <Flannel> gartral: /wc
[05:23] <Flannel> gartral: (window close)
[05:23] <ftw> ddclear
[05:23] <chronographer> ping: sendmsg: Operation not permitted
[05:23] <chronographer> still after sudo
[05:23] <Zasz> fccf: ok, i ran the reconfigure command and then reboot and let it boot normally, it shows the ubuntu splash loading screen, when the progress bar gets full, it flashes black, and freezes with a screen full of graphical artifacts
[05:23] <gartral> Flannel: that's twice in 5 minutes! thank you again!
[05:23] <mib_bqvs12z8> chronographer: ohh, no clue then, sorry
[05:23] <ftw> pardon my gibberish
[05:24] <chronographer> why does the network have to be so complicated in these new versions of Ubuntj?
[05:24] <SirStan> chronographer: works perfect for me ...
[05:24] <fccf> Zasz: do you know what kind of videocard you have?
[05:24] <chronographer> what else is there apart from the interfaces file to set things up with?
[05:24] <mib_bqvs12z8> what's the best IRC client for linux like all the smilies colors everything addons
[05:24] <pspsampsp> chronographer: i had no problem
[05:24] <SirStan> mib_bqvs12z8: ircii
[05:24] <ioanna> hey
[05:24] <jrib> switch_server
[05:24] <chronographer> can you use wicd to set up two ethernet cards?
[05:24] <jrib> ugh, sorry
[05:24] <SirStan> what is wicd?
[05:24] <chronographer> !wicd
[05:25] <chronographer> its like network-config
[05:25] <ubuntunoobneedin> i am trying to play a .mod file and when movieplayer searches fro a plug in it comes back with a message saying no package with selected plug in found The requested plugins are:
[05:25] <ubuntunoobneedin> MPEG-2 System Stream demuxer Could someone please help me figure it out
[05:25] <SirStan> chronographer: I have 4 ethernet adapters in my ubuntu machine.. and they all work great
[05:25] <gartral> mib_bqvs12z8: nicest doesnt mean prettiest, be careful, the Nicest IRC client is Irssi, what im using, the prettiest is probably xchat or pidgin
[05:25] <jesus_> please spanish chat
[05:25] <samd> SirStan: wicd is a network manager, to scan for networks
[05:25] <tritium> jesus_: #ubuntu-es
[05:25] <chronographer> geez. you use the default network manager
[05:25] <Zasz> fccf: some ati card, i can boot into windows and check
[05:25] <SirStan> samd: 'scan' for networks?
[05:25] <chronographer> ?
[05:25] <fccf> Zasz: hold on
[05:25] <Getterac7> Question about software RAID in Ubuntu.  I'm planning to switch my file server from OpenFiler to Ubuntu; is it possible to save my mdadm configuration and bring my RAID up without losing data?
[05:25] <samd> SirStan: yeah, to see and connect to wireless networks within range
[05:25] <SirStan> chronographer: of course not.. that would be silly.
[05:25] <Zasz> sure
[05:25] <SirStan> samd: is that what my 9.04 laptop is using to configure wifi?
[05:25] <fccf> Zasz: ctrl+alt+f1
[05:26] <mib_bqvs12z8> SirStan: u LIE :P
[05:26] <pspsampsp> how can i disable write cache for usb drives?
[05:26] <SirStan> mib_bqvs12z8: i lie?
[05:26] <chronographer> SirStan: you manually edit interfaces?
[05:26] <mib_bqvs12z8> SirStan: :D
[05:26] <samd> SirStan: nope, its not the default ,, the default is "network manager" you can find it in the pannel
[05:26] <mib_bqvs12z8> gartral: yeah i have pidgin never found the irc in pidgin good though idk
[05:26] <Zasz> fccf, when i hit that with the screen of graphical artifacts it does nothing
[05:27] <SirStan> chronographer: Im not sure what you would call 'manually'... ubuntu server has a slightly different (ie, no UI) way to configure things.
[05:27] <gartral> mib_bqvs12z8: xchat
[05:27] <fccf> Zasz: reboot - get to recovery console
[05:27] <voss> mib, chatzilla is nice
[05:27] <jamiejackson> what's the terminology (so i can google it) for when you set up a directory in such a way that files automatically get certain permissions when they're added?
[05:27] <chronographer> oh right. but you open the file with vi or whatever and change stuff?
[05:27] <SirStan> jamiejackson: umask
[05:27] <StevensUbuntuTri> Is is possible to run Ubuntu on an old Pentium II?
[05:27] <Fenix|home> Greetings... Anyone know how to fix dmraid in jaunty?
[05:27] <jamiejackson> thx, SirStan
[05:27] <SirStan> StevensUbuntuTri: yes
[05:27] <chronographer> I am happy using no UI, but even the no IU way doesn't work!!!!!
[05:27] <Zasz> fccf: it's a radeon x1350, btw
[05:28] <pepperjack> StevensUbuntuTri: ive run debian on a p133 with 8MB ram with a gui so yeah
[05:28] <samd> SirStan: if ur in ubuntu server, ull have to configure via command line
[05:28] <gartral> StevensUbuntuTri: try xubuntu
[05:28] <SirStan> chronographer: I Just brought up my eth1 "manually" and am reconfiguring my wireless router just fine :~).
[05:28] <SirStan> samd: not true.
[05:28] <lennyf> StevensUbuntuTri: I am on an 800Mhz PIII with Ubuntu now
[05:28] <tritium> chronographer: sure it does.  "man interfaces" for more details on how to properly setup your /etc/network/interfaces file
[05:28] <chronographer> so editing /etc/network/interfaces and ifup and down ??
[05:28] <samd> SirStan: yes , unless uve installed a gui
[05:29] <gartral> pepperjack: nmaybe you havent looked much into just *how* different Ubuntu is from Mother Debian, trust me, if you try and boot ubuntu on less than 256 megs ram, you will be SORRY
[05:29] <voss> sirstan ubuntu server is cli by default
[05:29] <SirStan> samd: i assume you havent installed ubuntu server then.. it lets you setup networking w/o using the console thx.
[05:29] <tritium> SirStan: so does ubuntu desktop
[05:29] <SirStan> voss: I am well aware.
[05:30] <SirStan> voss: but samd's statement was incorrect.
[05:30] <mib_bqvs12z8> wait how do i join this room in pidgin?
[05:30] <lennyf> StevensUbuntuTri: sorry, I missread.  PII try Xubuntu.
[05:30] <samd> SirStan: if u have no gui, theres no way to configure wireless... , even in the installer, its text based
[05:30] <chronographer> ping <IP_ADDRESS>   ->  ping: sendmsg: Operation not permitted
[05:30] <chronographer> what is the reason for this?
[05:30] <SirStan> samd: you can configure wireless without a GUI my son.
[05:31] <tritium> samd: no, you can configure wireless in /etc/network/interfaces
[05:31] <DigitalKiwi> wicd has a version with a curses interface \o/
[05:31] <tritium> samd: "man wireless" for details.
[05:31] <samd> tritium: yeah, and you do that from a console isnt it?
[05:31] <DigitalKiwi> and ofc you can configure wireless from the command line :/
[05:31] <StevensUbuntuTri> lennyf: Is Xubuntu a smaller program?  Is that a special install?
[05:31] <samd> tritium: vi /etc/netwo...
[05:31] <DigitalKiwi> there are tons of scripts or you can do it by hand
[05:31] <chronographer> I know. debian, once configured, works flawlessly in terms of wired and wireless networking. But this new Ubuntu doesn't work
[05:31] <gartral> !xubuntu | StevensUbuntuTri
[05:31] <SirStan> chronographer: pastebin your ifconfig plz
[05:32] <tritium> samd: also, read /usr/share/doc/wireless-tools/README.Debian
[05:32] <becomingGuru> chronographer, _this new_ :O
[05:32] <ubuntunoobneedi1> I need Help I am trying to play .mod files with movieplayer and when i search for a plug in it says no packages with requested plug ins found The requested plugins are:
[05:32] <ubuntunoobneedi1> MPEG-2 System Stream demuxer can someone please help me make this work took video of the kids with camcorder and we wanna watch it
[05:32] <lennyf> StevensUbuntuTri: a little smaller.  Ubuntu takes 150MB, Xubuntu about 100MB if I remember.
[05:32] <Zasz> fccf: in recovery mode i can use alt+f# to switch screens but not when i boot normally and it screws up
[05:32] <chronographer> http://pastebin.com/m368cd769
[05:32] <SirStan> chronographer: whats that?
[05:33] <pspsampsp> ubuntunoobneedi1: try renaming to .mpg , thats what i do
[05:33] <chronographer> sorry, I am not using interfaces to set up atm as wicd set my eth0 up for me
[05:33] <SirStan> chronographer: please post your ifconfig

[05:33] <darlek> !pastebinit
[05:33] <fccf> Zasz: type ... cd / ... then cd /etc/X11... then ls
[05:33] <mib_bqvs12z8> why does it say im banned from #Ubuntu?
[05:33] <SirStan> chronographer: xterm->sudo ifconfig
[05:34] <chronographer> oh yeah
[05:34] <mib_bqvs12z8> is it because im trying to join in with pidgin while logged in here?
[05:34] <fccf> Zasz: look for xorg.conf.(datetime) look for the oldest one
[05:34] <lennyf> StevensUbuntuTri: that is MB ram, I mean.
[05:34] <chronographer> http://pastebin.com/m12c4506c
[05:34] <SirStan> chronographer: and while your at it.. your routing table (route)
[05:34] <pspsampsp> ubuntunoobneedi1: right click on the .mod file and rename , change the .mod to .mpg
[05:35] <chronographer> http://pastebin.com/m7cf545c8
[05:35] <SirStan> chronographer: hmm.
[05:35] <mib_bqvs12z8> who's admin here?
[05:35] <Zasz> fccf: 2009-06-05 at 10:45pm is oldest, i think it was having problems then too
[05:35] <pepperjack> mib_bqvs12z8: the ops hide in plain sight
[05:36] <ethiotech> I need help!!!! when VNC viewer adjust my server side ubuntu resolution to fit to my (LCD TV resolution which is really high..  it stretches the resolution on the server side and I can't seem to click or use the keyboaerd)
[05:36] <chronographer> 1.0 is my router. 3.0 shoudl be the crossover cable
[05:36] <fccf> Zasz: nothing older than your problem?
[05:36] <pspsampsp> ubuntunoobneedi1: if my .mod file was called "movie.mod" i would rename to "movie.mpg" (without quotes)
[05:36] <mib_bqvs12z8> pepperjack: :D i wanna talk to admin about why i was banned
[05:36] <pepperjack> mib_bqvs12z8: /join ubuntu-ops is best bet
[05:36] <Toadlips> DONKEY KONG
[05:36] <mib_bqvs12z8> can an admin pm me or something
[05:36] <mib_bqvs12z8> ohh ok
[05:36] <chronographer> SirStan: what do you think
[05:37] <DigitalKiwi> you're banned because you talk to much j/k
[05:37] <DigitalKiwi> too
[05:37] <Toadlips> Hey, what's the best app to rip DVDs with in Ubuntu?
[05:37] <Zasz> fccf nope unfortunately
[05:37] <chronographer> handbrake
[05:37] <pspsampsp> DigitalKiwi: are you from NZ?
[05:37] <tritium> mib_bqvs12z8: /join #ubuntu-ops, and we'll discuss it
[05:37] <sirstan-pidgin> mib_bqvs12z8: this is me .. over pidgin
[05:37] <Thornsbery> I just installed Ubuntu and I'm new to this whole Linux thing and I can't change the resolution on my computer, I'm stuck with 1280x800.  Anyone know what I can do to fix this?
[05:37] <DigitalKiwi> pspsampsp: no
[05:37] <Toadlips> Chrono, not available in the package manager.
[05:37] <chronographer> Toadlips: http://handbrake.fr/?article=download
[05:37] <pspsampsp> DigitalKiwi: ok
[05:37] <ubuntunoobneedi1> pspsampsp ok i renamed it tried running it and it searches for plugin and cannot find suitable plug in
[05:37] <fccf> zasz: reinstall ubuntu - don't use guest session
[05:38] <pepperjack> Thornsbery: what video card?
[05:38] <chronographer> Toadlips: .deb available
[05:38] <Thornsbery> It's an intel 945GM.
[05:38] <SirStan> chronographer: not sure dude.. your conf looks good
[05:38] <Toadlips> Thanks Chrono!  I'll give that a try!!!!
[05:38] <chronographer> its multithreaded so very fast and very good at codecs
[05:38] <DigitalKiwi> hmm what was that one app
[05:38] <Toadlips> Smoooht!
[05:38] <chronographer> SirStan: yes I know. Maybe I will <shudder> restart
[05:38] <pepperjack> Thornsbery: may help-  https://wiki.ubuntu.com/X/Config/Resolution
[05:38] <SirStan> chronographer: any iptables rules?
[05:39] <ubuntunoobneedi1> pspsampsp any other ideas
[05:39] <chronographer> well maybe firestarter
[05:39] <DigitalKiwi> dvd::rip
[05:39] <fccf> !intel | Thornsbery
[05:39] <DigitalKiwi> I liked it
[05:39] <SirStan> chronographer: try service stop iptables
[05:39] <pspsampsp> ubuntunoobneedi1: go into system -> administration -> Software Sources and enable software restricted by copyright
[05:39] <Zasz> fccf: was afraid of that :( .. if i reinstall from live cd will it keep the packages i've downloaded or should i format the drive?
[05:39] <SirStan> chronographer: service iptables stop
[05:39] <lennyf> StevensUbuntuTri: also try Debris LInux, a very small  Ubuntu variant.
[05:39] <pspsampsp> ubuntunoobneedi1: i have all options enabled .
[05:39] <chronographer> $iptables: unrecognized service
[05:40] <chronographer> nvm. I will try to fix it later
[05:40] <chronographer> thank for your time though
[05:40] <l7> hi, can someone tell me how to use the .gpg files at http://releases.ubuntu.com/9.04/ ?
[05:40] <fccf> Zasz: if you reinstall it will format anyway - you could try apt-get update && apt-get upgrade to see if that fixes anything
[05:41] <l7> i think i need to get a key from an ubuntu keyserver to verify it
[05:42] <hubar_> hi all question, how do I change default session manager from gdm to kdm, on jaunty?
[05:42] <Zasz> fccf: well thanks for all your help, i do appreciate it. i guess the bright side is that I only recently installed so i won't lose too much if i do have to format :)
[05:43] <pepperjack> hubar_: if you have kubuntu installed already sudo dpkg-reconfigure kdm perhaps though im not sure
[05:43] <tritium> pepperjack: that's correct
[05:43] <Getterac7> i'm running Ubuntu 9.04 and recently my screen draw rate has dropped to nothing.  I can't watch flash videos without massive tearing/stuttering... scrolling pages is like a slide-show... it's terrible.  Is anyone else seeing problems like this?
[05:43] <Chaorain> I am trying to make /var/lib/mythtv/music readable on my Vista comp over a network.  Samba should be activated but vista says its an unknown device. Help?
[05:44] <tritium> hubar_: "sudo dpkg-reconfigure gdm" would also work.  Reconfiguring either display mangager is fine.
[05:44] <StevensUbuntuTri> lennyf:  Thank you!  I will check it out.
[05:45] <ubuntunoobneedi1> pspsampsp woohooo your awesome thanks movies playing great now thanks so much
[05:45] <Oprtz> gogeta: i install ndis and vola the wifi works flawlessly :) thanks dude
[05:46] <kandinski> can anybody point me towards a good sources.list for playing dvds with?
[05:46] <jtaji> !medibuntu | kandinski
[05:47] <kandinski> I don't understand why my computer wont install libdvdcss2 (using jaunty)
[05:47] <kandinski> jtaji: thanks, but I thought medibuntu was not needed with jaunty multiverse
[05:47] <alarming> @jtaji: Is there a list of commands for ubottu?
[05:47] <kandinski> I will add the line now
[05:47] <kandinski> jtaji: and thanks again
[05:47] <fccf> !ubottu
[05:48] <alarming> Thanks.
[05:48] <aSt3raL> do you always need the kernel header files to compile programs??
[05:48] <aSt3raL> i cant find the headers for this kernel
[05:48] <tritium> aSt3raL: no, generally you don't.
[05:48] <Tyrath> hey, how do I cancel print jobs
[05:49] <fccf> Tryath: localhost:631
[05:49] <Tyrath> there's no print icon
[05:49] <Tyrath> fccf: no luck :/
[05:49] <Tyrath> !print
[05:49] <pepperjack> !cups
[05:49] <lennyf> StevensUbuntuTri: how much ram in your PII?  And what size HD?
[05:50] <fccf> Tyrath: if you type localhost:631 into your browser you will see the cups server
[05:50] <Tyrath> fccf: I just want to cancel the current print jobs
[05:50] <Tyrath> fccf: should I kill the cups process?
[05:50] <Tyrath> - will that do it?
[05:50] <fccf> Tyrath: no - put localhost:631 into your firefox
[05:50] <David___> hello?
[05:51] <David___> ..
[05:51] <Tyrath> fccf: even if i'm not printing out of firefox, but openoffice
[05:51] <alarming> Hello, David.
[05:51] <fccf> Tyrath:  this will give youaccess to all printer countrols
[05:51] <fccf> Tyrath: yes even then
[05:51] <Tyrath> fccf: it says I have no jobs, but my printer seems to think differently
[05:52] <fccf> Tyrath: power cycle your printer
[05:53] <StevensUbuntuTri> lennyf:  I am not sure.  A Friend of mine was about to throw away an old Pentium II  that works perfectly (he just stopped using it recently because a program that he needs is too big for it)   He said i could have it. It is running Windows 95.  I figured I would find out if I could do a linux install and put it to good use.
[05:53] <Tyrath> fccf: I cancelled all jobs - seems to have done the trick
[05:53] <Tyrath> fccf: thanks for your help :)
[05:53] <DigitalKiwi> are you deadset on an ubuntu variant for this PII?
[05:53] <Tyrath> ciao everyone
[05:54] <pepperjack> StevensUbuntuTri: honestly i love ubuntu but id consider another distro. debian perhaps or slackware since the pii could be a fun box to learn a bit more about linux on.
[05:54] <DigitalKiwi> arch!
[05:54] <lennyf> StevensUbuntuTri: it will be fun to try.  If you can't fit Ubuntu, Xubuntu or Debris, try Puppy or DLS.
[05:55] <DigitalKiwi> DLS?
[05:55] <DigitalKiwi> you mean DSL?
[05:55] <DigitalKiwi> or is there a dls I don't know about
[05:55] <lennyf> yes, DSL
[05:56] <rob235> im trying to install a program from svn and it says its missing the package 'libpcre' but i have libpcre3 installed
[05:56] <rob235> it says it wants version 5 or >
[05:56] <rob235> but its not in repositories
[05:56] <Firefishe> how do I restart phonon?
[05:56] <rob235> is that my problem? i need to get it online? or what
[05:58] <pepperjack> rob235: sometimes you can get away with using a symlink for like v5name to the actual v6lib
[05:58] <DigitalKiwi> EWW
[05:58] <DigitalKiwi> that is bad
[05:58] <rob235> oh wait, it says pcre3 in the main title in synaptic but its really version 7.8
[05:58] <pepperjack> symlink is the duct tape of the linux world
[05:59] <fccf> pepperjack: linux is the macguyver of the computer world
[05:59] <rob235> ugh i dunno what to do
[06:00] <rob235> guys im sorry for the paste
[06:00] <rob235> Consider adjusting the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable if you
[06:00] <rob235> installed software in a non-standard prefix.
[06:00] <rob235> Alternatively, you may set the environment variables PCRE_CFLAGS
[06:00] <rob235> and PCRE_LIBS to avoid the need to call pkg-config.
[06:00] <rob235> See the pkg-config man page for more details.
[06:00] <FloodBot1> rob235: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[06:01] <Firefishe> fccf:  Do you know how to restart phonon?  I need to re-set my sound card
[06:02] <Firefishe> I'll brb
[06:05] <Cosmo1> I am using ubuntu 9.04 and I have a ideazon merc stealth keyboard some of the keys on the game pad and the numberpad either are not recognized or preform the wrong action (like the up arrow does print screen)' is there any way to fix it I have searched google and the forums but not had any luck on a fix
[06:08] <bri-h> Cosmo1:  are you familiar with xev?
[06:08] <fccf> I am calling it a night - night
[06:08] <Cosmo1> fccf: kind of
[06:09] <Cosmo1> sorry meant that for bri-h
[06:10] <bri-h>  Cosmo1:  did you try checking the xev output with the standard key mapping?
[06:11] <bri-h> You'll probably have to make a custom key map
[06:11] <Cosmo1> how do I do thatZ
[06:11] <Cosmo1> ?
[06:12] <bri-h> Probably too complicated to walk through here
[06:12] <bri-h> xev will tell you what values the keys put out
[06:13] <Getterac7> Question about software RAID in Ubuntu.  I have an existing software RAID setup; is it possible for Ubuntu to detect the existing software RAID?

[06:16] <bri-h> Cosmo1:  Sorry - trying to find the name of the file that stores the key map - give me a minute
[06:16] <Cosmo1> ok thanks
[06:18] <Cosmo1> sorry about the slow typing, switched over to a devorak layout today
[06:18] <Getterac7> WOOT Dvorak for the win!
[06:19] <ethiotech> how can I get my Microsoft Media center remote work in ubuntu for my Ubuntu media center? I remember I had to install some kind of driver for Infared
[06:19] <k4r1m> could someone help me out? i can't seem to get audio with flash videos...
[06:20] <Getterac7> Cosmo1: congrats on the switch.  I suggest going cold turkey and never looking back to qwerty.  it took me about 2 months to get my typing speed up to about where i was when i was using qwerty.
[06:21] <dusten> i'm having issues with Rhythmbox and Podcasts crashing it on Jaunty amd64. anybody experience the same? fixes?
[06:21] <k4r1m> hm just saw a thread on the forums i ran "killall esd" and now i got sound on flash... will i need to do this everytime or what?
[06:21] <Geoffrey2> when using a mount command, is there any way to specify a short timeout period?
[06:21] <tritium> k4r1m: which release are you running.  Ubuntu doesn't use esd any more.
[06:21] <k4r1m> latest
[06:22] <tritium> k4r1m: no, the latest uses pulseaudio, not esd
[06:22] <Cosmo1> yeah switched my keys around and started using one of the typing tutors today
[06:22] <bri-h> Cosmo1: This link http://wiki.linuxquestions.org/wiki/Configuring_keyboards may be better than the last one I sent
[06:22] <k4r1m> tritium: well i just got the latest and did what i did.... im using pulseaudio but when i killed esd flash audio worked
[06:22] <k4r1m> i had other system audio working fine with pulseaudio
[06:23] <Cosmo1> ok I will try that
[06:23] <tritium> k4r1m: is that an upgraded system?
[06:23] <k4r1m> tritium: nope
[06:23] <yaris123456789> hey guys. I am getting a server with 8gb ram....it says i need 64bit OS....which do you recommend? i am used to ubuntu 32bit, but i heard ubuntu 64 bit is tough to use.
[06:23] <tritium> k4r1m: then ESD isn't even installed.
[06:24] <bri-h> yaris123456789:  I don'
[06:24] <k4r1m> tritium: dont know man... it could of just randomly worked like that. ubuntu is very random with sound from what i recall while back with 8.04
[06:24] <bri-h> yaris123456789: I don't think 64-bit is really much different
[06:25] <tritium> k4r1m: could *have*, but I doubt it.
[06:25] <bullgard4> Is Ekiga.net a private company? See https://www.ekiga.net/index.php

[06:25] <k4r1m> tritium: i still got another problem with sound which is banshee
[06:25] <remu> Hey Folks, I need some help. I've got an ISO which mounts just fine in windows, but fails to do so in Linux, also, if I try to burn it onto a disc in Linux it says "CD-ROM is NOT in ISO 9660 format" Any clue?
[06:25] <k4r1m> it just doesnt wanna give me sound
[06:26] <bri-h> yaris123456789: It used to be that flash and other things didn't work but most of that is worked out
[06:26] <aSt3raL> anyone know where i can find the kernel header files for <IP_ADDRESS> for arm?
[06:26] <yaris123456789> bri-h: ah ok
[06:26] <k4r1m> amarok is fine though i get sound from that and that dragon thingy player but nothing from banshee
[06:27] <aSt3raL> they arent in the repo i have listed
[06:27] <yaris123456789> also do you guys recommend installing Webmin ?
[06:28] <jtaji> yaris123456789: no
[06:28] <k4r1m> so anyone here could help me with banshee's sound?
[06:28] <jtaji> !webmin | yaris123456789
[06:28] <saprophyte> Hello, just installed new ati driver... ubuntu loading screen is fine but when i get to what would be the login screen it is jumbled and I cant see anything. Any ideas?
[06:29] <tritium> aSt3raL: all ubuntu linux-headers packages start with the string "linux-headers".  Use apt-cache search to find them.
[06:29] <yaris123456789> jtaji: whew thanks for that
[06:30] <yaris123456789> what about OpenVZ w/ HyperVM
[06:30] <saprophyte> where do I go to edit resolution and such... the xorg.conf file just revers to "Default installed device"
[06:30] <yaris123456789> no way im gonna install Cpanel again....:p
[06:30] <coz_> saprophyte,  if no one knows here you can go to  #compiz  and ask soreau   but if you wait till tomorrow morning ask adamk  both know at driver and card combinations well
[06:30] <yaris123456789> !OpenVZ
[06:31] <yaris123456789> are there known problems with ubuntu server and openvz ?
[06:31] <digdeep> linux-generic and other 3 relevant packages are kept back, during a update. Should I update them or just leave them?
[06:31] <saprophyte> coz_ im sure i just need to adjust resolution and such, can you tell me where it is stored in jaunty, xorg.conf just srefers to link
[06:32] <aSt3raL> tritium: yeah its not in the repo.  thats the prob
[06:32] <aSt3raL> the only headers are for the newer kernels
[06:32] <tritium> aSt3raL: are you running the ARM port?
[06:32] <aSt3raL> yeah
[06:33] <aSt3raL> is there an archive somewhere?
[06:33] <coz_> saprophyte,   well system preferences  display
[06:33] <saprophyte> coz_ i need to access it from command line
[06:33] <tritium> aSt3raL: any ubuntu-packaged kernel will have a corresponding header package in the repo
[06:33] <coz_> saprophyte,  mm then talk with soreau
[06:33] <saprophyte> hehe
[06:33] <saprophyte> thnx
[06:34] <aSt3raL> there is linux-headers-2.6.28-11 in the repo but i have <IP_ADDRESS>
[06:34] <tritium> aSt3raL: custom kernel, or ubuntu-packaged?
[06:34] <aSt3raL> how can i upgrade the kernel
[06:34] <aSt3raL> its custom for a plug computer
[06:35] <aSt3raL> embedded dev stage thing
[06:35] <tritium> aSt3raL: hence the reason it's not in the repos
[06:35] <coz_> saprophyte,  i think both soreau  and adamk are not really here though  but adamk for sure tomorrow morning
[06:35] <aSt3raL> right
[06:35] <tritium> aSt3raL: this would be useful to say from the beginning
[06:35] <aSt3raL> any ideas?
[06:35] <aSt3raL> heh ok
[06:35] <digdeep> linux-generic: Depends: linux-image-generic (= <IP_ADDRESS>.17) but <IP_ADDRESS>.16 is to be installed (Can I assume it will fix itself or I need to do something, in order to keep update to date)
[06:38] <Getterac7> Does anyone know if Transmission will work in Ubuntu 9.04 64-bit ?
[06:38] <cheaba> well i,m new
[06:38] <Getterac7> (i've had bad experiences with 64-bit being lacking in the software support.)
[06:38] <jtaji> Getterac7: it certainly does
[06:39] <Getterac7> jtaji: excellent.  Thanks :)
[06:39] <jtaji> Getterac7: troubles are usually with closed-source proprietary software
[06:40] <saprophyte> QUIT
[06:40] <Getterac7> jtaji: right, but i'm currently using OpenFiler 64-bit on my file server and i can't download rTorrent because it doesn't have 64-bit libraries or something.
[06:40] <saprophyte> oops
[06:40] <alarming> Pine can't find libldap.so.2, is it possible to download it, or create a symlink between the current file (I have package libldap-2.4-2)? I'm running 9.04 by the way. Thanks.
[06:40] <Getterac7> jtaji: so i'm switching to Ubuntu because i'm sick of not having software available.

[06:42] <Apollo2366> Can GCC compile to Windows executables? If so, how?

[06:49] <oDesk> hello , since i unloaded ALSA driver i can't get it reloaded!! please help
[06:50] <oDesk> i've compiled all ALSA files
[06:50] <oDesk> but nothing
[06:51] <bri-h> oDesk:  ALSA is weird b/c drivers are part of kernel
[06:51] <oDesk> sudo /etc/init.d/alsasound status #->  ALSA sound driver loaded.
[06:51] <safiyyah> hi there was a way to change dns settings graphically does anyone know?
[06:51] <Oprtz1> where to find "WHOIS" in ubuntu 9.04 ? i dont know where to find it? its already installed lol , thanks
[06:52] <oDesk> bri-h: um.. might be a problem then with the develpment kernel.
[06:52] <oDesk> bri-h: but it's just happened when i unloaded the driver
[06:52] <amidaniel> Oprtz1: Should be at /usr/bin/whois
[06:53] <bri-h> oDesk: what were you trying to do?
[06:53] <oDesk> Oprtz1: use    "which whois"
[06:53] <WIGGMPk> Can anyone direct me on how to have this "sudo cpufreq-selector -c 0 -g Performance" run on startup? If able, I would like it to be part of the booting process but I will settle for after login
[06:54] <oDesk> bri-h: i was trying to make the sound louder
[06:54] <bri-h> oDesk: if trying to update ALSA to the most current, there is a script in the forums to do that and it works well.
[06:54] <cheaba> whats the next beta
[06:54] <oDesk> bri-h: since it was
[06:54] <Flannel> cheaba: try #ubuntu+1
[06:54] <oDesk> bri-h: it's just to the newes
[06:54] <jtaji> WIGGMPk: you can add the command to /etc/rc.local (without sudo)
[06:54] <oDesk> bri-h: newest*
[06:55] <cheaba> i,m from xp gui cmd

[06:55] <Kazanowa> hey
[06:55] <cheaba> thinking great stuff
[06:55] <selocol> I can't read or type in Chinese in rxvt? What am I doing wrong?
[06:55] <ashmew2> whats rxvt
[06:55] <oDesk> Oprtz1: you might need to 'sudo apt-get install which'
[06:55] <WIGGMPk> jtaji: alright, no special way? just add it to the end of the file?
[06:56] <jtaji> WIGGMPk: that's it
[06:56] <cheaba> people are gods here and i,m saying thanks
[06:56] <oDesk> jtaji: i think before 'exit 0' line
[06:56] <WIGGMPk> jtaji: awesome... second to last question. is there any downfall or negative impact to having it set to the governor Performance all the time? other than when operating on battery with the laptop?
[06:56] <jtaji> oDesk: WIGGMPk: oh yes indeed, what oDesk said
[06:57] <jtaji> WIGGMPk: hmm well, if it's intel not really
[06:57] <jtaji> WIGGMPk: I think if it's AMD cpu scaling is used to make the darn thing not overheat
[06:58] <jtaji> but I'm not too up on AMD lately
[06:59] <WIGGMPk> jtaji: is there a way to detect the power supply? as in battery or direct power to use Performance or Power Save?
[06:59] <cheaba> lap or desktop
[07:00] <bri-h> oDesk: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1046137 - try that link and read through the post.  There's a script that will update alsa and it worked well for me
[07:02] <solidus-river> anyone here that can help with bash scripting, i'm trying to follow the tutorials but it doestn like my if statements!
[07:02] <oDesk> bri-h: thank you very much, i'll follow it, hopefully it works
[07:02] <weedar> How can I list which files a package contains, from a shell?
[07:02] <mattgman> question: when I try to install a package from a .deb, on a clean rebooted computer, it says that a pkg mgr is already running and can't install it.  any ideas?
[07:02] <jtaji> WIGGMPk: you would think so, I'm not sure though
[07:03] <solidus-river> i'm trying to take in a number, and if that number is greater than 3, decrese it by 5 and if its less than 3, echo "less than 3"
[07:03] <WIGGMPk> jtaji: I guess it would be easier to change the default settings than to use a script to detect the settings

[07:06] <rob235> im reading online that ffmpeg can cause some compiling errors with other programs with the newest version, i want to make sure i have no traces of ffmpeg left on my pc, how can i do that?
[07:06] <mattgman> nothing extra is open, clean restart of the computer and it still says it
[07:07] <ghindo> rob235: The ffmpeg you're using probably isn'
[07:07]  * dROg care ai cont / invitatii pe tvtorrents ?
[07:07] <mattgman> im trying to get a p2p up for work
[07:07] <ghindo> rob235: The ffmpeg version you're using probably isn't the most current version unless you compiled it yourself.  What version of Ubuntu are you using?
[07:07] <mattgman> any alternate suggestions?
[07:08] <rob235> yea i know but i mean its probably a bug that hasnt been fixed yet, and i compiled it myself but it was probably a couple weeks ago
[07:08] <kubuntero> how can I find out what Model HDD is in my computer ?
[07:08] <Lonesword> my xorg.conf file is pretty wierd!!!!1
[07:09] <rob235> where does apt-get install packages again?
[07:09] <Lonesword> kubuntero: won't it be written in the bios? Go to the place where you set the boot priority options and it must be written there
[07:09] <Lonesword> Section "Device"
[07:09] <Lonesword> 	Identifier	"Configured Video Device"
[07:09] <Lonesword> EndSection
[07:09] <Lonesword> Section "Monitor"
[07:09] <Lonesword> 	Identifier	"Configured Monitor"

[07:10] <Lonesword> EndSection
[07:10] <kubuntero> rob235: to whereever the package said it should install files
[07:10] <mattgman> its below that
[07:10] <Lonesword> FloodBot: ok.
[07:10] <rob235> so where can i find out where ffmpeg installs to
[07:11] <mattgman> should be the next section, longsword
[07:11] <rob235> i think i just made a mess
[07:11] <mattgman> reinstall!
[07:11] <Lonesword> mattgman: but there is no next section!!!!!
[07:11] <mattgman> let me pull mine up
[07:12] <Lonesword> ok
[07:12] <FAJ> Hi, I have an HP Ipaq that I am trying to get connected to ubuntu 8.04 LTS  I am getting really close, but the closest I can get is an error.  I am looking for help on this, but don't even really know where to start.  Dmesg shows ttyUSB0 connected, but from there when i try to use -matchmaker it doesn't work.
[07:12] <mattgman> Section "Device"
[07:12] <rob235> typing ffmpeg in a terminal doesnt say command not found so its definitely installed somewhere hah
[07:13] <kubuntero> rob235: ffmpeg would install to libs
[07:13] <rob235> ok thanks
[07:13] <mattgman> faj - what are you trying to connect with?
[07:13] <FAJ> 8.04 using synce
[07:13] <FAJ> I can get them to connect, but not sync.
[07:14] <mattgman> what hardware?
[07:14] <kubuntero> rob235: And if you want to know where a command lives try using the which command
[07:14] <Lonesword> mattgman: Under section "device",  its written Identifier: configured video device and nothing else
[07:14] <mattgman> nvm, stupid question
[07:14] <FAJ> mattgman:  usb, hardware is an hp ipaq running 2003
[07:14] <rob235> ahh thanks kubuntero
[07:14] <Lonesword> mattgman: shouldn't it be something like "Vesa" or "VIA" or "Nvidia" or something like that?
[07:15] <rob235> so if i compiled the svn of ffmpeg then id need the source to uninstall it right?
[07:15] <mattgman> hold on a sec, seeing if this utility will work, lonesword
[07:15] <FAJ> mattgman: the error i get is:  ** Message: Device /org/freedesktop/Hal/devices/usb_device_3f0_1016_noserial_if0_serial_usb_0 not fully set in Hal, skipping
[07:15] <Lonesword> mattgman: ok
[07:16] <joel367>  /server irc.freenode.net
[07:17] <rob235> ok i see ffmpeg/ffplay/ffserver in /user/local/bin
[07:17] <rob235> can i just delete them?
[07:17] <kubuntero> rob235: What?
[07:18] <kubuntero> you can but you probably shouldn't
[07:18] <rob235> im trying to remove all trace of ffmpeg on my system
[07:18] <rob235> and i made a mess
[07:18] <kubuntero> how did you put ffmpeg on your system ?
[07:18] <rob235> and am trying to clean it up
[07:18] <ghindo> rob235: Well, you compiled it from source, right?
[07:18] <rob235> svn
[07:18] <rob235> yea
[07:18] <kubuntero> sudo make uninstall
[07:18] <kubuntero> if you didn't delete the source directory
[07:18] <rob235> i dont think i kept the source
[07:19] <FAJ> mattgman: anything that you can think of?
[07:19] <kubuntero> oh then yeah you need to hunt them down manually
[07:19] <Lonesword> rob235: I think you must go to the source directory and type make uninstall
[07:19] <mattgman> 1 sec faj
[07:20] <mattgman> lonesword: in terminal, type lspci -v

[07:38] <mattgman> i don't know
[07:38] <mattgman> im as blind as you are with this, so i don't want to give you bad info
[07:38] <rags> Boohbah: Not extensive though
[07:38] <FAJ> ah ok
[07:39] <gartral> faj, what firewall app you using?
[07:39] <FAJ> gartral: firestarter
[07:39] <mattgman> lonesword: did you pastebin your lspci -v?
[07:39] <FAJ> gartral:  i tried adding some ports, in rule. didn't work
[07:40] <gartral> FAJ: i think you need to set a seperate rule for every port you want open
[07:40] <gartral> mplayer will not read past even an insegnificantly small spec of a scratch ona dvd, if it encounters one, mplayer crashes and my my system needs to have alt-sysrq-k issued if i was fullscreen... is this a known bug, if so, what can i do about it?
[07:40] <FAJ> gartral: what ports would need to be opened, as per nabble.com aboe?
[07:40] <fccf> !repeat | gartral
[07:40] <gartral> fccf: that "repeat" was a typo fix
[07:41] <gartral> sso became so
[07:41] <fccf> gartral: and it still had typos
[07:41] <mattgman> hang tight gartal, i think i can get the info i used for that problem
[07:41] <gartral> fccf: well, I didn't proof read it quite well enough, sorry
[07:41] <FAJ> gartral: I discovered this was an issue with iptables.  I needed to add a rule to
[07:41] <FAJ> allow the ipaq to connect on ppp0. My ubuntu machine was not configured
[07:41] <FAJ> to do that.
[07:41] <FAJ> sorree
[07:41] <FAJ> thought it would be one
[07:41] <FloodBot1> FAJ: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[07:41] <Vaga> how do I configure my display manualy in ubuntu? tried the live boot, and it decided some veird resolution where apropriate, so I cant read the screen O.o
[07:42] <gartral> !enter | FAJ
[07:42] <FAJ> gartral:  yah i know sorry :\
[07:42] <mattgman> gartal - try this, it made mine play just fine  http://www.debuntu.org/how-to-play-dvd-under-ubuntu-linux
[07:42] <mintux> in vlc video show separate I want to show internal them
[07:42] <Vaga> doing reconfigure xserver-org tels me xserver-org is not installed :(
[07:43] <gartral> mattgman: I can play them fine in every other player, but mplayer wigs out if it cant read a single sector
[07:43] <fccf> mintux: difficult to understand your grammer - whats your native language?
[07:43] <mattgman> well, ditch mplayer
[07:43] <mattgman> i use vlc
[07:43] <tritium> Vaga: xserver-xorg is the package name
[07:43] <rob235> hahaha im a moron
[07:43] <gartral> mattgman: its the only one that plays without choppiness
[07:44] <mintux> fccf: how can combine video output with control button ?
[07:44] <mintux> in vlc
[07:44] <rob235> whoever saw me say i was copying 12.6gb, not only is that bad but i just realized the partition i was copying it over to is on the same drive
[07:44] <rob235> what a waste of time
[07:44] <FAJ> gartral: any ideas?
[07:44] <rob235> i was just trying to free up space
[07:44] <fccf> mintux: define combine?
[07:44] <gartral> mintux: wants to know how to put the controlls and video in the same window
[07:44] <Vaga> tritium: I know, but shouldent it be available for reconfigure even on a live boot? (I'm used to suse where yast fixes evrything)
[07:44] <mattgman> gartal - do a sudo apt-get install gstreamer0.10-ffmpeg gstreamer0.10-plugins-ugly gstreamer0.10-plugins-ugly-multiverse gstreamer0.10-plugins-bad gstreamer0.10-plugins-bad-multiverse
[07:44] <gartral> mattgman: i have all those
[07:45] <tritium> Vaga: you missed my point.  You were spelling it incorrectly (forgot the x in "xorg")
[07:45] <pspsampsp> does anyone know how to disable write cache for usb drives so that data is written straight to the drives?
[07:45] <rob235> why does everything want to use these bad and ugly plugins
[07:45] <mintux> exactly
[07:45] <FAJ> gartral: firestarter is now seein ppp0 as a connection; good start.
[07:45] <hunterrose> quick question: how to connect to a windows share on a server 2008 system using ubuntu
[07:45] <mattgman> what about libdvdread3?
[07:45] <fccf> mintux: by playing fullscreen ( f ) the player control's will show up at the bottom or wait while I get a better answer
[07:45] <mintux> solved
[07:45] <Vaga> tritium: lol, thanx :)
[07:46] <tritium> rob235: because of patent-encumbered codecs and formats
[07:46] <rob235> oh ok
[07:46] <mattgman> hunter - just try networking - windows network
[07:47] <Boohbah> pspsampsp: http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-483715.html
[07:47] <hunterrose> mattgman: Tried that, I get denied access to mounting the share, tried to connect directly with nautilus, get a deny that way as well
[07:47] <Koheleth> Morning
[07:47] <fccf> good morning Koheleth
[07:47] <Koheleth> :)
[07:48] <mattgman> do you have a guest acct created on the windows pc, hunterrose?
[07:48] <hunterrose> Yeah I got a user account on the server that would normally allow me connection to the share.
[07:48] <yaris123456789> Host '<IP_ADDRESS>' is not allowed to connect to this MySQL server....what does this mean? i added % to "host" field in mysql.user table
[07:48] <Koheleth> I have chromium ruuning on AMD64 but synaptic is not very happy
[07:48] <Koheleth> running even
[07:49] <gartral> mattgman: ok, i didnt have the to multiverse ones, but why would codecs i didnt have before help when mplayer reads the disk when it's in perstine shape, and not if it has so much  a blemish on the surface?
[07:49] <Koheleth> was it something I said
[07:49] <rob235> if i made a real folder filled with links to folders on other drives and used that folder as the source of media for a mediaserver and it didnt support the links could that cause a recursive nightmare of some sorts?
[07:49] <fccf> Koheleth: Can you be more spacific?
[07:50] <mattgman> i don't know!  don't ask me!
[07:50] <Randabis> Well hello there ubuntu community. It has been a long time...
[07:50] <Koheleth> fccf: yes, have it running fine but synaptic wants to remove it
[07:50] <tritium> Koheleth: how did you install it?
[07:50] <rob235> because i went to empty my trash bin which contained the mediaserver cause im tryin another program and its at 70,000 files (45MB)
[07:50] <Koheleth> sees it as broken, understandable I suppose
[07:51] <Koheleth> tritium: by brute force
[07:51] <Randabis> I haven't used ubuntu in about 2 years or so now...I just got a new laptop and got ubuntu up and running on it. :)
[07:51] <tritium> Koheleth: you installed a .deb of chromium?
[07:51] <Koheleth> yes
[07:51] <fccf> Koheleth: synaptic probably wants to remove it because it is broken (in it's eyes) or it is conflicting with something else
[07:51] <Koheleth> works fine, fast too
[07:51] <mattgman> Randabis: WOOT WOOT!
[07:52] <ghindo> Randabis: Is it as good as when you last used it?
[07:52] <kandinski> hi, in upgrading my computer to jaunty the networking broke: ifconfig only finds the loopback interface
[07:52] <Vaga> reconfiguring xorg dosent rely let me reconfigure the display, just the keyboard.... I cant run the install either since that to autodetects my monitor incorrectly :/
[07:52] <Randabis> Yeah, it's nice. :) Ubuntu has seriously improved a lot since the last time I had it installed.
[07:52] <kandinski> obviously I cant apt-get install -f to depants it; can anybody help me diagnose and fix the problem?
[07:52] <Randabis> wubi is phenomenal. :) That was the most painless install ever.
[07:52] <ghindo> Randabis: Good to hear!
[07:53] <gartral> mattgman: new codecs, no change whatso ever
[07:53] <fccf> kandinski: you might try restarting with the previus kernel .. to see if that fixes anything
[07:53] <mattgman> gartal - no idea man
[07:53] <tritium> gartral: did you install ubuntu-restricted-extras?
[07:53] <kandinski> fccf: good point, will try that
[07:53] <Randabis> ghindo: Thanks! I'm really enjoying being back in a linux environment.
[07:54] <ghindo> Randabis: That's the nice thing about open source software - it's constantly improving
[07:54] <ushimitsudoki> Is there an OO.org (*NOT* go-oo) repository/PPA for Ubuntu?
[07:54] <hunterrose> Yeah I put ubuntu on my desktop that I use for school, but I am sorta-forced to use my laptop atleast until I figure out a way to connect to a windows share =3=, but I like using ubuntu now-a-days :D
[07:55] <gartral> tritium: I did, and I can lay DVDs that are in %100 perstine condition in mplayer, but if they have any dust, minute scratch, or other blemish on the bitfeild, gmplayer hangs and i have to force quit (or zap from an ssh terminal if i was fullscreen)
[07:55] <gartral> s// lay/play
[07:55] <ghindo> ushimitsudoki: I think so.  If you give me a sec, I can look for it...
[07:55] <ushimitsudoki> ghindo: cool, thanks :)
[07:55] <hoohaah> hi guys. i'm thinking about installing ubuntu. for something like ralink that needs firmware download, will ubuntu offer this on the cd?
[07:56] <fccf> hoohaah: you will want to use ndiswrapper with that card - using windows drivers
[07:56] <kandinski> hoohaah: you can find out by trying it on livecd mode
[07:56] <gartral> tritium: *all* other players not based on mplayer work fine, just drop the frames and keep going, mplayer, even though i have frame dropping, refuses to read even a lightly dusty dvd
[07:56] <hunterrose> I am probably gonna have to make a disk image for this, so that after this class I can install ubuntu directly, instead of through the windows installer
[07:57] <tritium> gartral: interesting.
[07:57] <Randabis> ghindo: Definitely. I must admit I feel I cheated a little bit with wubi. I sort of miss gentoo. :/
[07:57] <hoohaah> fccf: windows drivers was what was causing the problem
[07:57] <pspsampsp> i tryed adding some mount optiions for a drive but i stuffed it up how can i remove the mount options?
[07:57] <hoohaah> i ran a different debian-based livecd, and the connection was perfect
[07:57] <hoohaah> figured i'd install may as well install ubuntu
[07:58] <Koheleth> I have removed Chromium beause I cannot upgrade anything while its installed
[07:58] <Koheleth> np, will wait for it, nice though
[07:58] <gartral> tritium: and I know it's not my dvdrom, it read a cd that was craked through 80% to the core and managed to recover all but a single photo
[07:58] <rob235> wow, my ubuntu just puked nautilus screens
[07:58] <fccf> hoohaah: you can try most anything with the live cd - to see if it is working
[07:58] <gartral> !gross | rob235
[07:59] <gartral> rob235: please avoid using gross analogies
[07:59] <hunterrose> thats weird, why does my ubuntu desktop edition have a Nvidia X Server applet in the system > Administration
[07:59] <rob235> heh ok
[07:59] <gartral> hunterrose: you have an nvidia gfx card
[07:59] <hunterrose> Yeah
[07:59] <Koheleth> hunterrose: opensuse does that too
[07:59] <hunterrose> ah
[08:00] <gartral> hunterrose: it wasnt a question, it was an answer
[08:00] <hunterrose> gartral: and I replied with a yeah :D
[08:00] <hunterrose> as an agreement
[08:00] <kandinski> fccf: you rock, going back to the previous kernel fixed it, thanks
[08:00] <gartral> ahh, i thought it was in the context of "Yeah.. So?"
[08:00] <hunterrose> nah
[08:00] <fccf> kandinski: doing that may or may not break other things
[08:01] <ghindo> ushimitsudoki: Is this what you're looking for? https://launchpad.net/~openoffice-pkgs/+archive/ppa
[08:01] <kandinski> fccf: well, as long as it fixes networking...
[08:01] <gartral> hunterrose: if you didnt have that, you wouldnt be able to use 3dfx
[08:01] <gartral> tritium: any info found?
[08:01] <kandinski> then oh, now I am at "processing was halted because there were too many errors" phase
[08:01] <tritium> gartral: no
[08:01]  * kandinski loves apt* when it works
[08:02] <hunterrose> gartral: ah I see, I was just curious why it was called X Server, it makes me think that it was for a server edition or somethun
[08:02] <fccf> kandinski: getting that error from apt?
[08:02] <yaris123456789> "GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON *.* TO 'root'@'%' IDENTIFIED BY '' with grant option; FLUSH PRIVILEGES; " it still says Host XX.XX.xX is not allowed to connect to mysql server.... wth ???
[08:02] <gartral> !X11 | hunterrose
[08:02] <kandinski> fccf: from aptitude, yes
[08:02] <pspsampsp> i tryed adding some mount optiions for a drive but i stuffed it up how can i remove the mount options?
[08:03] <hunterrose> Yeah I know x windows, I just got a tad confused.
[08:03] <pspsampsp> i cant mount the drive anymore
[08:03] <ushimitsudoki> ghindo: thanks i will have to check that is OO.org and not go-oo, but it's a good starting place
[08:03] <silv3r_m00n> hi there
[08:03] <fccf> kandinski: you still have a broken system - and it may take a little figuring out to get you back to golden
[08:03] <gartral> hunterrose: in short your X windows are displayed by your X server
[08:03] <silv3r_m00n> me on 8.10 and at time suddenly the language turns to my native language and all text editors type in that
[08:03] <silv3r_m00n> why is this happening
[08:04] <hunterrose> ah I see
[08:04] <avgbvge> hi. has anyone else had "mouse clicks with touchpad" stop working after upgrading to karmic? (other touchpad settings, including scroll, continue to work fine)
[08:04] <ghindo> avgbvge: I would check in #ubuntu+1
[08:05] <fccf> avgbvge: karmic is +1
[08:05] <gartral> silv3r_m00n: you may have to find the room that's in your native language, no offence ut i can't make heads or tails of that info
[08:05] <avgbvge> ghindo: thanks
[08:05] <silv3r_m00n> gartral: see ... me using english fine ... but say every 30 mins the text editors start typing in hindi language
[08:05] <silv3r_m00n> and then I have to restart to fix it
[08:06] <silv3r_m00n> the behaviour is very random say once a week or so
[08:06] <rob235> woot woot just reached 100,000 files, when will it stop? nobody knows!
[08:06] <kandinski> fccf: can you give me a clue on how to start diagnosing it? It is testimony to ubuntu's goodness that I have been using it for four years now, but it has mostly worked till now, so I don't even know where to start poking
[08:06] <gartral> silv3r_m00n: im not sure
[08:07] <silv3r_m00n> hmm
[08:08] <fccf> kandinski: firstly you can search on ubuntuforums.org for people having the same errors as you... 2 google search ubuntu jaunty networking broken on upgrade
[08:08] <ushimitsudoki> calc: is your PPA OO.org or go-oo?
[08:08] <rob235> why cant i just install fuppes
[08:09] <rob235> im going to shoot myself in the head, after the creator of ffmpeg and fuppes
[08:09] <Randabis> i was really surprised my broadcom wireless worked out of the box. I remember having hell trying to get a broadcom chipset working back in the day
[08:09] <kandinski> fccf: except that the problem now is not broken networking, but broken apt
[08:09] <kandinski> fccf: thanks
[08:10] <tritium> kandinski: have you run "apt-get install -f"?
[08:10] <fccf> kandinski: apt is broken because apt was upgraded - using the broken(new) kernel apt would work
[08:11] <fccf> tritium: kandinski lost his networking on upgrade to jaunty... is currently using old kernel
[08:11] <tritium> fccf: apt and the kernel are unrelated
[08:11] <Gnea> rob235: fuppes?
[08:11] <rob235> wow it finally stopped around 140k files
[08:11] <rob235> upnp media server that works with xbox360
[08:12] <kandinski> tritium: I get the error precisely when running apt-get install -f
[08:12] <Gnea> aah
[08:12] <rob235> the package on the site says it was built in 2007 but the svn is recent but when i run make i get ffmpeg errors
[08:12] <Gnea> there's another one...
[08:12] <tritium> kandinski: can you pastebin the error?
[08:12] <kandinski> tritium: will have to type it by hand
[08:13] <Gnea> !info ushare
[08:13] <Gnea> rob235: try ushare
[08:13] <kandinski> also I am tying to get networking to work there.... be right back
[08:13] <rob235> i dont think ushare works with xbox360 yet
[08:13] <Gnea> it worked with the 360 a few years ago, why not now?
[08:13] <tritium> rob235: do you have the proper development libraries installed?
[08:14] <rob235> Gnea: i didnt know it did, i was just going by what i read
[08:14] <Gnea> rob235: I've used it, I'm pretty sure it works, I wouldn't recommend it unless I knew for a fact that it does.  try it, see what happens.
[08:14] <Gnea> *doesn't
[08:16] <disappearedng> Hey how do I add locale for wine? wine-locale can't be downloaded
[08:16] <rob235> ushare doesnt have a gui does it?
[08:17] <Gnea> nope, just a config file - make a dir, point it at it, startit up, and it should "just work", as long as the config is set correctly
[08:17] <rob235> i mean i dont mind if it doesnt, just curious
[08:17] <rob235> can you organize your folders with links/shortcuts?
[08:17] <alejandro_09> SALUDOS DESDE LA CIUDAD DE MEXICO A LAS  2 DE LA MADRUGADA

[08:20] <pspsampsp> how do i undo mount options?
[08:20] <alejandro_09> HOLA
[08:20] <fccf> tritium: kandinski: this error is due to apt seeing the intrepid kernel in use - on a systme that has been upgraded to jaunty... - kandinski is using the intrepid kernel because he lost networking in jaunty
[08:21] <Gnea> hskill: not necessarily
[08:21] <tritium> kandinski: please let me know what happens after you run that
[08:21] <kandinski> tritium: "Processing was halted because there were too many errors"

[08:25] <fccf> tritium: dpkg requires jaunty kernel ..
[08:25] <areels> i have to reaplly always
[08:25] <tritium> fccf: no it doesn't
[08:25] <System404> Gnea: but wouldnt the 360 allready pick up your media like it does with windows
[08:25] <Gnea> areels: so you're editting xorg.conf?
