[19:27] <hittingpilot> hello, i need help with the wine windows emulator
[19:28] <t_> What help?
[19:29] <sr71Blackbird> 1356 nicks!!?
[19:29] <hittingpilot> t_:i'm trying to install a game, Act of War: High Treason, and i can't get past the EULA screen because it has a scroll  trap that won't catch
[19:29] <kaston> i previously installed something called envy to fix a pink screen problem i had everytime i played video.
[19:30] <Snowie> hello
[19:30] <Snowie> I'm making a new parition what should i choose in the MOUNT POINT option?
[19:30] <wols_> kaston: envy in gutsy = bad
[19:30] <wols_> Swish: depends where you want to mount it
[19:30] <wols_> Snowie: ^^
[19:30] <Swish> whoa whoa
[19:30] <Swish> yeah!
[19:30] <Snowie> what does that mean :P
[19:31] <wols_> ^you can mount a partition anywhere in the filesystem
[19:32] <kaston> it was working fine until this new update.  i am trying to reinstall the driver through envy again
[19:32] <racestoapril1> I installed 2 copies of Google Earth on my computer and am attempting to remove one of the copies as they are different versions. How do I do this via terminal?
[19:32] <wols_> kaston: envy is not supported here
[19:32] <wols_> !envy
[19:32] <Flannel> racestoapril1: That depends entirely on how you installed them
[19:33] <wols_> coolfire: do you message people unasked
[19:33] <hittingpilot> can anyone help me with wine?
[19:33] <Snowie> how do i set a swap partition?
[19:33] <Flannel> !swap | Snowie
[19:33] <racestoapril1> Flannel: I installed them via terminal.
[19:33] <Snowie> danke
[19:33] <kaston> ok well that didn't seem to work
[19:33] <Flannel> racestoapril1: That doesn't tell us a whole lot.  Was it through package management? a bin file? what?
[19:33] <wols_> !ask | hittingpilot
[19:34] <racestoapril1> Flannel: I installed it through package management.
[19:34] <hittingpilot> wols_:?????
[19:34] <Flannel> racestoapril1: Both of them?
[19:34] <wols_> Flannel: of course not
[19:34] <Flannel> wols_: I know that.
[19:34] <racestoapril1> One was a Bin file, one was package management.
[19:35] <wols_> racestoapril1: we cannot know how to uninsztall the bin file. ask the people who gave you that file. via apt installed packages you can uninstall with apt-get remove <package>
[19:35] <wols_> or synaptic or aptitude or lots of other ways
[19:35] <Flannel> racestoapril1: Alright, so... the bin file just dumps files into your system, so you have to manually remove them.  I *believe* google earth plays nice and puts everything in /usr/local/  and actually, I think it puts everything in /usr/local/google/google-earth
[19:35] <hittingpilot> Can anyone help me with a setup in wine? i'm having trouble installing a game, because i can't get past the EULA screen
[19:36] <Flannel> racestoapril1: so, the correct way to "uninstall" the bin version is sudo rm -rf /usr/local/google/google-earth
[19:36] <wols_> hittingpilot: http://workaround.org/moin/GettingHelpOnIrc
[19:36] <Snowie> what's the difference between a primary and logical parition?
[19:36] <amenado> Snowie-> logical can be subdivided to more partitions
[19:36] <Omid> in perfomance, what's different between install ubuntu inside windows and install clean?
[19:36] <Snowie> okay
[19:37] <Snowie> what about location of the new parition beginning/end
[19:37] <Snowie> what does that mean :P
[19:37] <gaucho> I already tried to install hardy heron for three times, but I came back to gutsy in every time because my sound just don't work. I already tried to rebuild alsa drivers (I have intel-hda-sound, ICH8, Asus P5b-Plus mainboard), I run alsaconf and it detects my device, but it still don't play. Is there a solution to my case? Why this happens?
[19:37] <wols_> beginning or end of disk
[19:37] <Snowie> does it matter?
[19:37] <hanasaki> what kind of encryption is used in gnome vnc when its turned on under system/remote?
[19:37] <Jenova_skill> Hello all
[19:37] <wols_> hittingpilot: usually vnc has no encryption
[19:37] <Flannel> Snowie: Logical partitions live inside an extended partition, you can have 4 primary partitions, or 3 primaries with one extended.  Inside the extended you can have as many logicals as you'd like.
[19:38] <wols_> hanasaki: ^^
[19:38] <Jenova_skill> Looking for someone with some basic knowledge to maybe explain a couple things 2 me ( not really tech ) problems
[19:38] <Snowie> thanks Flannel
[19:38] <hanasaki> wols_:  huh?
[19:38] <mazyiar> hello everybody, I'm new to ubuntu and linux in general. I'm trying to set up file sharing on my ubuntu pc using samba, but have some problems. I'm in a university network, where Ip addresses are assigned using DHCP, so no static IP's, and most i want to share out files that windows pc's will be accessing. I also want to access windows shares.
[19:38] <mazyiar> Can anybody help?
[19:38] <hittingpilot> wols_: what is vnc?
[19:38] <Flannel> !ask | Jenova_skill
[19:38] <MrWizeGuy1983> virtual network connection
[19:38] <wols_> hanasaki: vnc usually has no encryption
[19:38] <MrWizeGuy1983> it's an awesome thing
[19:38] <wols_> hittingpilot: something hanasaki asked about
[19:38] <Jenova_skill> lol ok
[19:38] <Jenova_skill> sorry
[19:38] <wols_> Jenova_skill: are the questions ubuntu related?
[19:39] <hanasaki> wols_:  yes I know.. but there is an option for "require" in the gnome menus
[19:39] <wols_> hanasaki: if it can do crypto, TLS of course
[19:39] <Jenova_skill> Yea...... I just installed ubuntu yesterday........ Just trying 2 grasp a couple concepts.......... Like installing this x-chat program...... How can i get a list of the rest of the programs i have access to install from the database?
[19:40] <private_meta> hmm... can someone tell me how I can deactivate the deskbar applet?
[19:40] <hittingpilot> wols_: well i'm not having troubles with that, i'm having troubles with accepting it because the have a script that makes you scroll all the way down to accept and it's not working
[19:40] <hanasaki> ya want a widnows client  that will do it wols_ any ideeas?
[19:40] <wols_> Jenova_skill: run synaptic
[19:40] <gaucho> Jenova_skill, Press Alt + F2, type Gksudo synaptic and press Enter
[19:40] <wols_> hanasaki: no
[19:40] <hanasaki> bummer
[19:40] <AquaFox> After some time on my GNOME desktop, Firefox stops working and the Terminal crashes..
[19:40] <fsufitch> wols_: i did  sudo aptitude purge apache2 libapache2-mod-php5  apache2.2-common
[19:40] <AquaFox> Is this a know bug?
[19:41] <AquaFox> Can anybody help me?
[19:41] <fsufitch> wols_: and install on all of those, but it still fails
[19:41] <hanasaki> ok so how can a couple boxes in diff offices connect to each other w/ vnc if they are all behind nat'ed firewalls
[19:41] <sidewalk> which graphical ftp-client do you guys recommend?
[19:41] <hanasaki> ?
[19:41] <AquaFox> I can't google it because Firefox won't start.
[19:41] <wols_> fsufitch: check if /etc/apache2/ exists after you purged it all
[19:41] <AquaFox> And terminal crashes :|.
[19:41] <wols_> sidewalk: gftp, filezilla
[19:41] <AtomicSpark> i'm trying to install mono, but it says "Package mono is not available, but is referred to by another package.This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or is only available from another source"
[19:41] <fsufitch> okay
[19:41] <sidewalk> filezilla?
[19:41] <AtomicSpark> what does this mean? D:
[19:41] <sidewalk> where can i get that?
[19:41] <wols_> quad3d-dbi: lynx, links2, dillo, epiphany, etc
[19:42] <sidewalk> ah found it
[19:42] <AquaFox> After exstensive usage of Hardy and GNOME, Firefox won't start and the terminal crashes. Anybody know how to fix this?
[19:42] <hanasaki> AtomicSpark:  try netbeans.org and java?
[19:42] <Flannel> AtomicSpark: mono is installed by default, actually.  Pastebin your sources.list and we'll take a look
[19:42] <danbhfive> AtomicSpark: maybe there is something wrong with your sources?
[19:42] <wols_> AtomicSpark: it means a package in your repos mentions mono but mono itself is not there. fix your sources.list
[19:42] <fsufitch> wols_: no, it doesnt
[19:42] <justin_> hi
[19:42] <Jenova_skill> Ohh wow thanks.....
[19:42] <wols_> !lamp | fsufitch
[19:42] <AquaFox> After exstensive usage of Hardy and GNOME, Firefox won't start and the terminal crashes. Anybody know how to fix this?
[19:43] <wols_> !patiience | AquaFox
[19:43] <wols_> !patience | AquaFox
[19:43] <AquaFox> I have patience
[19:43] <mazyiar> I'm trying to set up file sharing on my ubuntu pc using samba, but have some problems. I'm in a university network, where Ip addresses are assigned using DHCP, so no static IP's, and mostly i want to share out files that windows pc's will be accessing. I also want to access windows shares.
[19:43] <AquaFox> I am just repeating so people could see.
[19:43] <wols_> AquaFox: then show it for a change please
[19:43] <wols_> !repeat | AquaFox
[19:43] <AquaFox> I wish I could search that website.
[19:43] <AquaFox> But my problem is Firefox won't start
[19:44] <Flannel> AquaFox: w3m is installed.  Also, we'll need some sort of error message or something to go by
[19:44] <wols_> AquaFox: I told you alternatives. if you don't want to your choice. but that doesn't give you the right to spam the channel please
[19:44] <Jenova_skill> Ne 1 else having a issue with headphone jack not working * i got the sound to work with a FAQ* type post on the boards but nothings seems to work about the headphone jack
[19:44] <connor> hello
[19:44] <Flannel> AquaFox: Try running firefox from a terminal, see what errors it gives you
[19:44] <AquaFox> Flannel, read it carefully.
[19:44] <LesserRemarkable> are there any programs other than wine that allow you to use windows programs?
[19:44] <AquaFox> I said terminal won't start.
[19:44] <AquaFox> If you not.
[19:44] <AquaFox> *note
[19:45] <wols_> LesserRemarkable: virtualbox and then install a normal windows inside it
[19:45] <Flannel> AquaFox: the terminal won't start at all?
[19:45] <AquaFox> This only happens after extensive usage.
[19:45] <danbhfive> AquaFox: reinstall
[19:45] <AquaFox> It starts.
[19:45] <fsufitch> wols_: did it; still doesn't work
[19:45] <AquaFox> It crashes at startup
[19:45] <ng0n> ..
[19:45] <AquaFox> Reinstall? That's a way to fix Windows problems not Linux.
[19:45] <AquaFox> :|
[19:45] <LesserRemarkable> will that windows work through ubuntu... or does it just set up a second partition?
[19:45] <Flannel> AquaFox: check your logs, unfortunately, without some error message, we don't have a lot to work off of
[19:46] <wols_> LesserRemarkable: the windows will be a big file on the ubuntu partition
[19:46] <AquaFox> Where would the logs be Flannel ?
[19:46] <wols_>  /var/log and ~
[19:46] <Flannel> AquaFox: /var/log, also try setting up a new profile for firefox, seeing if that works (move your old one, etc)
[19:46] <AquaFox> kk
[19:46] <danbhfive> AquaFox: yeah, but something is broken on your system.  If no programs will start, you maybe have nothing more than corrupted data
[19:46] <AquaFox> danbhfive, it happens after extensive usage.
[19:46] <AquaFox> It works perfectly at starty.
[19:47] <AquaFox> *start
[19:47] <danbhfive> ok, i get it
[19:47] <Agu10> how do i install flash cs3 in wine?
[19:47] <test_> just try
[19:47] <Flannel> AquaFox: Have you run memtest? checked for hardware issues, etc?
[19:47] <wols_> Agu10: #winehq
[19:47] <AquaFox> Flannel, no hardware issue.
[19:47] <AquaFox> This is definitely software :/.
[19:47] <Gohanx3> how do you install your printer in ubuntu?
[19:47]  * wols_ is amazed how they are always so sure
[19:47] <wols_> !printing | Gohanx3
[19:47] <AquaFox> It's a bug I encounter occasionally.
[19:47] <Gohanx3> thanks wols
[19:48] <AquaFox> I think it has something to do with Nautilus..
[19:48] <AquaFox> Or ALSA.
[19:48] <vaca3000> i can't install firefox 3 T_T pliz someone help me
[19:48] <AquaFox> One of the two.
[19:48] <Flannel> !enter | AquaFox
[19:48] <wols_> vaca3000: what is the output when you try to?
[19:48] <Flannel> vaca3000: What version of Ubuntu are you on?
[19:48] <private_meta> So does anyone know how I can deactivate the gnome deskbar-applet?
[19:48] <AtomicSpark> Flannel, my sources.lst http://paste.ubuntu.com/21899/ it seems to repeat itself a lot.. maybe because of updates? maybe i should clean it up?
[19:48] <vaca3000> 8.04
[19:48] <frold> !rails | frold
[19:49] <frold> !rubyonrails | frold
[19:49] <wols_> AtomicSpark: don't. it doesn't repeat itself
[19:49] <vaca3000> the firefox installed when i use apt get is 1.5
[19:49] <wols_> !msgthebot
[19:49] <AtomicSpark> wols_, oh nvm. little differences :)
[19:50] <Flannel> AtomicSpark: No, there's no repetition there.  Pastebin the output of sudo apt-get update
[19:50] <Flannel> AtomicSpark: Actually, are you trying to install the "mono" package itself?
[19:50] <mazyiar> I'm trying to set up file sharing on my ubuntu pc using samba, but have some problems. I'm in a university network, where Ip addresses are assigned using DHCP, so no static IP's, and mostly i want to share out files that windows pc's will be accessing. I also want to access windows shares. Can anybody help?
[19:51] <AtomicSpark> Flannel, yes. trying to install a list a programs to get a .net program to work on ubuntu. see http://evemon.battleclinic.com:8000/trac/wiki/MonoBuildOnUbuntu7.10
[19:51] <AtomicSpark> i wonder if i already have it installed...
[19:51] <Flannel> AtomicSpark: "mono" doesn't exist on hardy.  it's now mono-runtime
[19:52] <MrWizeGuy1983> can't you just go to places and look at the windows network to find the other pc's mazyiar
[19:52] <Flannel> AtomicSpark: hmmm, actually.. that's a packaging error.  File a bug about that at LP, there should be a "mono" transitional package.
[19:53] <mazyiar> well for some reason not all of them show up. i think there are multiple workgroups running, and i only really know pc names, not ip addresses
[19:53] <AtomicSpark> Flannel, LP?
[19:53] <Flannel> AtomicSpark: Launchpad
[19:53] <Flannel> !bugs | AtomicSpark
[19:53] <kipseron> how i can change the default network adapter in the network manager
[19:53] <kipseron> ?
[19:53] <AtomicSpark> Flannel, ah yes will do. :)
[19:54] <nealmcb> How can I get a calendar app (evolution, jpilot, whatever) to effectively notify me of an alarm on a calendar event?  My eyes just never notice the itty bitty blinking ! in the notification area.  I want a window to pop to the top and stay there so I see it when I come back, or awn icosn to keep on bouncing vigorously until I notice them, or something....
[19:54] <MrWizeGuy1983> mazyiar, my experience with that is limited, i only have a home network with 2 pc's one of which is often windows and the other ubuntu, but shouldn't it list all different work groups?
[19:55] <mazyiar> also, i don't really know the 'syntax' of sharing. Like in windows, you just put in \\pc-name into 'Run'.
[19:55] <esac> how can i get SUPER+L to lock my desktop ?
[19:55] <mazyiar> it does list some pc's, but for some reason it doesn't list all of them MrWizeGuy1983. Especially not the ones i want to access :P
[19:56] <esac> nevermind
[19:56] <MrWizeGuy1983> well that kinda sucks....i'm sorry i've never been on such a large network with my laptop
[19:56] <mazyiar> it's ok lol. Thanks anyway :)
[19:56] <Lando1> new to this IRC approach (and ubuntu in general) is this the place to be for stupid beginner questions?
[19:57] <nealmcb> Lando1: yup
[19:57] <MrWizeGuy1983> yes Lando1 it is
[19:57] <kipseron> how i can change the default network adapter in the network manager
[19:57] <MrWizeGuy1983> beginner, pro, intermediate, or just plain stupid, this is the place
[19:57] <uplink_> is possible change the "prefix" in the compilation on "make install" process? because the program is compiled (make) with wrong prefix
[19:58] <MrWizeGuy1983> that would be a pro question, one i couldn't answer if my life depended on it
[19:58] <MrWizeGuy1983> lol
[19:58] <Oisak> Can anyone point me in the direction of some guide on how to calibrate a touch panel?
[19:58] <apophis> Uplink, yes it is definitly possible, does it have a configure script?
[19:59] <uplink_> apophis, yes but if i change on configure i need the use "make" command again
[19:59] <dynamite`> :) ubuntu has its own irc server? :D
[19:59] <uplink_> apophis, it is long time for my manchine
[19:59] <kkathman> uplink  I think if you look at the man page you'll see there is a --prefix attribute
[20:00] <apophis> uplink_,  configure --prefix=<your prefix>, and after that make install
[20:00] <mazyiar> can somebody advise me on the correct procedure on installing programs? especially those with .tar.gz extensions. I can unzip and unpack them, but i don't know exactly where to put all the stuff. I also think it doesn't matter where i put it, but what are some good practices?
[20:00] <apophis> uplink_, make knows what is already done and won't do the whole compilation again
[20:00] <uplink_> apophis, humm thanks very much
[20:00] <jeezmos> what application would you recommend I use to convert a VOB file to a FLV or MPG?

[20:01] <uplink_> apophis, i installed this program of old prefix,i need remove it,if i use the make uninstall i need use "make" again?
[20:02] <edson> somebody use notebook hp pavilion dv6000z?
[20:02] <ariqs> how do I do that ^?
[20:02] <apophis> uplink_, depending on project there might be a "make remove"
[20:02] <mazyiar> hi edson, i use a compaq presario v3000, which might be close to the hp
[20:02] <julio> i have a pavilion ze5000
[20:03] <edson> mazyiar, right. how your chipset?
[20:03] <apophis> !pastebin | ariqs
[20:03] <AtomicSpark> Flannel, thanks for the help, i'm reporting the bug as we speak. also it seems mono-runtime is already installed. :)
[20:03] <mazyiar> chipset?
[20:04] <ariqs> I know what a paste pin is, but that wasn't that many lines and I was too lazy to pastebin it. Now you've all seen it anyway
[20:04] <apophis> ariqs, looks like you havent configured the program you want to compile, try a "configure" before make
[20:04] <uplink_> apophis, the project is the wine,i creating 2º wine for using patch on the "$home/.wine2" but i installed wrong on first compilation "$home/wine2"
[20:04] <ariqs> I don't think I'm supposed to
[20:04] <FAJALOU> does anyone know anything about the music tracker plugin crashing pidgin if the music player isn't running?
[20:04] <Herlaziness> how do I list the file list in a package?
[20:04] <sstchur> Basic question (I think) for someone who knows what he/she is doing:  I can connect to my ubuntu printer by specifying http://my.ip.address:631/printers/printerName, but I'd like to be able to specify http://ubuntuComputerName:631/...  This isn't working though; any ideas why?
[20:04] <ariqs> according to the INSTALL
[20:05] <FAJALOU> sstchur: i have to do the same thing to get my printer to work...
[20:05] <apophis> uplink_, since you knwo the directory, you can just delete it ;) sudo rm -rf ~/wine2
[20:05] <edson> mazyiar, sorry.... what chipset your notebook?
[20:05] <ariqs> and I think cmake may be a configure anyway
[20:05] <MrWizeGuy1983> anybody in the mood to help me figure out how to make ushare work for mp3's to the xbox 360?
[20:05] <sstchur> FAJALOU, no way to specify the computer name instead of IP?
[20:05] <uplink_> apophis, no need more? ^^ i and stupids questions,thnaks very much man
[20:05] <Travis70> Hello everyone
[20:06] <Ad84> any links to cools software for ubuntu?

[20:10] <jepe1> fajalou: i tried the burning at the lowest speed possible, also, i tried using the image on vmware.
[20:10] <MrWizeGuy1983> and apophis it shows up on the 360 but refuses to play the mp3's
[20:10] <FAJALOU> jepe1: are you trying to burn ubuntu?
[20:10] <sstchur> nealmcb, I'm not sure what avahi is?
[20:10] <edson> somebody use notebook hp pavilion dv6000z?
[20:10] <apophis> MrWizeGuy1983, so you see the mp3s on the xBox but they dont play? you tried different mp3s?
[20:11] <jepe1> fajalou: i tried, but cant install coz of the corrupted image, but when i check on the md5 sum its ok.
[20:11] <sstchur> nealmcb, I want to point my XP machine to my Ubuntu printer... right now I have to specify the Ubuntu machine's IP... I'd like to be able to specify its name instead
[20:11] <mazyiar> can somebody advise me on the correct procedure on installing programs? especially those with .tar.gz extensions. I can unzip and unpack them, but i don't know exactly where to put all the stuff. I also think it doesn't matter where i put it, but what are some good practices?
[20:12] <jepe1> i tried xubuntu,ubuntu,kubuntu, both desktop and alternated images.
[20:12] <FAJALOU> hmmm, what software are you using to burn it?
[20:12] <MrWizeGuy1983> apophis, it is all of them, they show up with a red circle and a line through them, i saw online it's a common issue
[20:12] <kaston> after installing an ubuntu update today my screen resolution won't go higher than 640x480.  it was fine before.  i have an nvidia geforce go 7600 card on my toshiba laptop and i previously used envy to install the driver.  how can i fix this?  thanks
[20:12] <jepe1> fajalou, ahampoo, but when i use it on vmware i only use the image on the HD, but it still says its corrupted althou the md5 sum is correct.
[20:13] <apophis> MrWizeGuy1983, I see, you tried the -x option for xbox compliance?
[20:13] <FAJALOU> jepe1:  on linux, or windows?
[20:13] <MrWizeGuy1983> yes, it had to be -x -t to work
[20:13] <jepe1> fajalou: on vmware on windows....
[20:13] <MrWizeGuy1983> for some reason it didn't work unless i did the -t
[20:13] <zainuddin> any want can help me how to install vmware 6.0
[20:14] <FAJALOU> jepe1: i would try from a different computer, or possibly just order one from canonical.  is it vista?
[20:14] <apophis> MrWizeGuy1983, :)
[20:14] <clegg_> anyone with an ipod touch?
[20:14] <mazyiar> I'm trying to set up file sharing on my ubuntu pc using samba, but have some problems. I'm in a university network, where Ip addresses are assigned using DHCP, so no static IP's, and mostly i want to share out files that windows pc's will be accessing. I also want to access windows shares. Can anybody help?
[20:14] <jepe1> fajalou: on xp, i ordered on shipit, it will take a month before i get my hands on that cd.

[20:17] <jepe1> fajalou: i'll try burning it in roxio. but its wierding me out is even on vmware it says its corrupted, i tried memtest  for a whole night but nothing came up wrong
[20:17] <MrWizeGuy1983> bb1, is your grub uninstalled or broken?
[20:17] <apophis> MrWizeGuy1983, well it shouldnt depend on ubuntu, obviously upnp is working, you see the mp3s and you said it worked in the past? It is probably some setting, have you tried something else then mp3? some pictures maybe?
[20:17] <Herlaziness> how to list all the files in a package? thanks
[20:17] <FAJALOU> jepe1: hmm that's weird b/c ya i used roxio and it worked without a hitch, try using a cdr instead, that helped me out, but it shouldn't matter
[20:17] <user01> can i swap out a laptop hard drive and put it in another laptop without any problems?
[20:18] <mazyiar> i have a problem setting up sharing in samba in hardy. can anybody help?
[20:18] <Jack_Sparrow> user01 minor hardware detection but it should be fine.. not like XP with copy protection
[20:18] <user01> i mean, laptop hard drives arent laptop specific right?
[20:18] <hanophix33> I am having a problem with AWN as it makes my monitor flicker once and a while and it is sometimes very slow/framey
[20:18] <ghostlines> it's possible for a dns nameserver and mailserver to have the same ip right?
[20:19] <GizmoTheG> if someone can help me with kubuntu @ PS3 plz pm :P
[20:19] <Daviey> ghostlines: yes

[20:19] <user01> Jack_Sparrow, oh
[20:19] <pucko-> Bert_2, use dd as usual
[20:20] <Daviey> ghostlines: one issue.. if you have multiple MX entries, you would be wise to also have multiple DNS servers :)
[20:20] <Bert_2> pucko-: did so, turned out I needed to use /dev/sdc because it's on USB
[20:20] <Bert_2> pucko-: but it works so whatever
[20:20] <jepe1> fajalou: ok, thanks anyways,  i think i am the only one having this kind of problem.

[20:21] <Drk_Guy> Hi
[20:21] <Drk_Guy> Is there a good "gaming" VM for ubuntu?
[20:22] <Drk_Guy> hanophix33, it depends on compiz being working, do you have it up?
[20:22] <Drk_Guy> I mean, it won't work right if compiz doesn't work right because they use the same acceleration libraries
[20:22] <hanophix33> drk_guy: compiz is working yes
[20:23] <Drk_Guy> Extrange
[20:23] <madcat> #help
[20:23] <hanophix33> extrange? is that for me?
[20:23] <Stargazer> Nautilus is using like 240mb how can i make it use less. also, what are the problems i might come into if i restart nautilus ?

[20:25] <Gohanx3> I dont understand, I install gutenprint but i still cant see my printer?
[20:25] <Drk_Guy> apophis, I was downloading QEmu
[20:25] <hanophix33> can anyoen tell  me why AWN flickers once and a while?
[20:25] <hanophix33> once in a while
[20:26] <apophis> Drk_Guy, 2 games are for free on ScummVM: Flight of the Amazon Queen :: and Beneath a Steel Sky, both are in the repos
[20:26] <light_saber> DRk Guy COD 4 on ubuntu? your best bet there is cedega
[20:26] <Drk_Guy> light_saber, Wine runs it great, and cedega wont run SERVICES either
[20:26] <apophis> CoD4? ;) nah thats not scumm :P
[20:26] <light_saber> ahhhhh....
[20:26] <light_saber> i don
[20:26] <Drk_Guy> light_saber, punkbuster runs as a service, neither wine, neither cedega can run it
[20:26] <light_saber> i don
[20:27] <light_saber> i don't think you can use scummVm for COD4... not sure though
[20:27] <Drk_Guy> light_saber, and cedega is real lame and bad, i prefer the official wine with 3DMark patch
[20:27] <apophis> definitly not ;)
[20:27] <light_saber> lol
[20:27] <Drk_Guy> why not apophis?
[20:27] <light_saber> drk_guy  are you going to run just a server for cod4 or the game itself?
[20:27] <apophis> Drk_Guy,  I missunderstood you completly, :)
[20:28] <Drk_Guy> light_saber, the game, at least only multiplayer
[20:28] <light_saber> hmmmmmm
[20:28] <mazyiar> Hi, can *anybody* help me share files on ubuntu?
[20:28] <Drk_Guy> Ah!!!, ScummVM is a plattform emultaor
[20:29] <Drk_Guy> apophis, I need a *real* VM
[20:29] <light_saber> putting it on a virtual machine might make it unplayable... considering there are no Virtual machines right now that uses direct3d or use the native video card
[20:29] <skreet> mazyiar, You're going to need to be more specific.  What are you trying to share files to or from?
[20:29] <KyleK> Drk_Guy: dosbox or xen?
[20:29] <Jack_Sparrow> mazyiar  samba if sharing with windows or ssh if between ubuntu's
[20:29] <apophis> Drk_Guy,  ;) why dont do a multiboot?
[20:29] <Drk_Guy> light_saber, how?
[20:29] <mazyiar> lol i tried being more specific before... nobody'd reply
[20:29] <madcat> Ai, does anyone remember the command to get a list of rooms?
[20:29] <Drk_Guy> apophis, I won't get back to winbugs
[20:29] <skreet> light_saber, VMWare's Workstation 6.5 has DX 9 support, though it's horrendeus as of right now
[20:29] <Drk_Guy> madcat, /list
[20:29] <mazyiar> I'm trying to set up file sharing on my ubuntu pc using samba, but have some problems. I'm in a university network, where Ip addresses are assigned using DHCP, so no static IP's, and mostly i want to share out files that windows pc's will be accessing. I also want to access windows shares.
[20:29] <madcat> Thanks
[20:29] <light_saber> it has dx9 support but it doesn't use the native video card... it still use the vmware video drivers
[20:29] <apophis> Drk_Guy, a VM wont help you there, neither QEmu nor another one... you need an OS there
[20:30] <skreet> Drk_Guy, winbugs?  heh....
[20:30] <light_saber> apophis is right
[20:30] <Drk_Guy> Rats apophis, ill need to set-up windows or search for special servers w/o PB enabled
[20:30] <skreet> mazyiar, out of the box, you can access Windows shares.
[20:30] <light_saber> lol
[20:31] <Drk_Guy> light_saber, The bad thing, they must be REAL *special*
[20:31] <Drk_Guy> :)
[20:31] <apophis> Drk_Guy, thats what I said, make a multiboot :P if you run windows in a VM or in multiboot environment doesnt make much of a difference, beside that the VM will be slower
[20:31] <mazyiar> skreet, i'm unaware of the 'syntax' so to speak
[20:31] <gla234> i installed gutenprinter but im not sure if my printer is detected, how do I verify it in console?
[20:31] <Drk_Guy> apophis, Right...
[20:31] <threexk> hello.  I had my wireless card turned off when I installed Ubuntu and so it didn't install drivers.  How can I make Ubuntu detect it?
[20:31] <skreet> mazyiar,  Places > Connect to Server
[20:31] <Drk_Guy> apophis, Thanks anyways
[20:31] <apophis> Drk_Guy, you're welcome
[20:31] <skreet> mazyiar, Have you tried that?
[20:32] <Drk_Guy> :)
[20:32] <SkywaIker> what is my root password in 8.04 ?
[20:32] <mazyiar> skreet, that doesn't seem to work. In windows, i go to run and put in \\example, but here i don't know what to put in
[20:32] <skreet> wow, just ran updates and i apparently have 7 broken packages.
[20:32] <apophis> SkywaIker, ubuntu does not set a rootpass by default
[20:32] <skreet> SkywaIker, Root account is disabled.  You will either have to use sudo or enable it.
[20:32] <skreet> mazyiar, One second, I'll look.  I don't believe UNC (\\Servername\Share) convention is supported.
[20:33] <SkywaIker> how to enable root account ?
[20:34] <apophis> !root | SkywaIker
[20:34] <mazyiar> skreet, so then is it impossible to access using pc names? will i have to use IP addresses always?
[20:34] <zainuddin> in login windows preference
[20:34] <skreet> mazyiar, Select "Windows Share", in Server put the IP or Hostname, Share is what you would have in the 2nd part of the unc (\\Server\Share), so place that there.  Folder can be anything you want it to be, as it's the local name. Username and Domain Name are specific to your network.
[20:34] <zainuddin> enable local system adminisatrtor loing
[20:34] <zainuddin> login
[20:34] <hanophix33> is there some plugins for AWN to make it more stable
[20:34] <skreet> mazyiar, Should be able to use Hostname.  Make sure that you can resolve it -- in a terminal type "ping <hostname> and see if your computer knows where that hostname is.
[20:34] <apophis> mazyiar, you can activate NetBIOS name if you really want
[20:34] <threexk> is there a way to make Ubuntu detect a new wireless card?
[20:34] <zainuddin> then u must set passwd for root
[20:35] <MFen>  anyone think of a command which acts like vim with 'highlightsearch' but to stdout?  also like 'grep --color' but display the entire file in between highlighted lines. i just want to highlight matching lines
[20:35] <gla234> wow just wow.. I installed the drivers but it refuses to detetct my printer :/
[20:35] <skreet> SkywaIker, If you truely need the root account, which 99.999999999% of the time you don't, you can set a root password by typing "sudo passwd"
[20:35] <sick_ejb> hello i am having a porblem setting up the envoirnment variables for the java in .bashrc file, some can help me please
[20:35] <skreet> SkywaIker, If you just want a root shell, go into a terminal and type "sudo -s", you are now "root".
[20:35] <SkywaIker> thanks
[20:35] <mazyiar> skreet, if i'm accessing say \\tim, and i don't really know what folder i want to access, would i be able to use this method, by just putting in tim in the hostname?
[20:36] <NetEcho> wow sad, Ubuntu can handle Windows workgroups better than windows itself lol
[20:36] <danand> c
[20:36] <skreet> mazyiar, Ah, you cannot "connect to server" the root of a unc.  You will need the share name... I think Ubuntu has a way to browse too, one second.
[20:36] <danand> oops
[20:36] <mazyiar> apophis, could you explain about the NetBios?
[20:36] <SkywaIker> can I use Xen on ubuntu ?
[20:36] <calman> i need help, trying to download the latest updates and I'm getting 35 kb/s
[20:37] <jaivikram> my terminal is not keeping command history ....how do i enable it?
[20:37] <askand> How do I run xprograms without starting gnome or kde?
[20:37] <SkywaIker> when I install Linux-Xen package or Ubuntu-xen-server , and restart , everything disapear.
[20:37] <jlulian38> Is there anyway to see where my traffic is being routed(through which interface)
[20:37] <sstchur> Is there a way to add a user with spaces in the name?  For example "Joe User" ?  I understand that in order to print, the user on the windows machine needs an account on the Ubuntu machine, but the account on the Windows machine has a space in the account name.
[20:37] <skreet> mazyiar, Have you tried using Places > Network and selecting Windows Network?  This may not work on a University network, though.
[20:37] <apophis> mazyiar, the names you see in windows networks are so called NetBios names, which are exchanged wihtout a central structure (NO DNS) normally ubunutu doesnt resolve them but there is a Wins client which does: like here: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=88206
[20:38] <skreet> apophis, Good point, I was assuming it was a Windows 2003 DNS-Only network, but it's possible -- likely -- that it's not.
[20:38] <jaivikram> my terminal is not keeping command history ....how do i enable it?-- hardy
[20:38] <skreet> mazyiar,  I just found something, if you go to Places > Network then select the left-hand side pencil-on-paper icon you can enter your own address, try smb://tim/ or smb://tim's_ip_here/ -- should be able to browse.
[20:39] <skreet> jaivikram, You mean the command "history", or the scrollback?
[20:39] <apophis> skreet, mazyiar: that might also be the solution to why he sees some and he doesnt see others ;)
[20:40] <jaivikram> both...neither m i able to scrollback nor is ctrl+r gives me anything
[20:40] <SkywaIker> when I install Linux-Xen package or Ubuntu-xen-server , and restart , everything disapear.   Can i use Xen on Ubuntu ???
[20:40] <friel> Got a networking issue, got a EEPC running ubuntu, and pc running ubuntu, (8.04) but unable to see either on my network, ( both connected by ethernet to a BT router)
[20:40] <skreet> jaivikram, It sounds like you're not using bash...  Type bash and press enter, does that work.  If so, we have to fix your shell to use
[20:40] <skreet> bash
[20:41] <navetz_> can someone here help me with mod_rewrite for apache
[20:41] <mazyiar> apophis, are you saying that i don't see some pc's becuase ubuntu can't resolve them?
[20:41] <apophis> friel, what you mean by "not see" ... can you send a ping between both?
[20:41] <skreet> friel, "See"?  What are you using to look for them?
[20:41] <navetz_>  I want it to replace any page with view.php?id=100&title=how-to-mod-rewrite  with /view/100/how-to-mod-rewrite
[20:41] <superkuh> I am trying to disable automatic f-spot-import of pictures from USB mass storage devices on 8.04 w/gnome. I have detailed my attempts thusfar here, with error messages. Any help would be appreciated. http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=835715
[20:41] <apophis> mazyiar, yes maybe
[20:41] <navetz_> RewriteRule ^view/(.*)/(.*)$ view.php?id=$1&title=$2 [L]
[20:41] <skreet> mazyiar, Yes, exactly, ubuntu doesn't have NetBIOS by default.  It helps if you know the IP of the host you wish to browse.
[20:41] <friel> apophis skreet Network location, will try ping now.
[20:41] <jaivikram> yeah...entered bash
[20:41] <test_> hi, my name i s Niklas
[20:41] <navetz_> thats what I have but it doesn't work
[20:41] <jaivikram> what od i do next
[20:41] <test_> anyone who want to chat
[20:42] <iuri> hi there,
[20:42] <iuri> does anyone know how to create a partiotion
[20:42] <threexk> is there a GUI for telling your wireless card where to connect?
[20:42] <iuri> using free space available
[20:42] <mazyiar> apophis, the link you send looks promising, i'll go through that and check... since our ip's are reasigned every few hours or so, the ip thing isn't really practical unfortunately :(
[20:42] <apophis> iuri, gparted is a graphical client for partitioning
[20:42] <friel> apophis skreet, ping returns normally,
[20:42] <skreet> friel  So you are expecting to see the other PC under Places > Network, right?
[20:43] <jaivikram> how to make the shell use bash by default
[20:43] <friel> skreet yes, is that wrong?
[20:43] <iuri> apophis, i ran fdisk -l but it doesn't show the free space avaivlable
[20:43] <hanophix33> has anyone have hardy
[20:43] <skreet> friel Honestly don't know, are you sharing any folders, etc?
[20:43] <apophis> !smb | friel
[20:43] <abchirk> Are there ubuntu packages for Skype?
[20:43] <yowshi> hmmmm audacious wont seem to play these bloody mp3's why isnt xmms in the repo again?
[20:43] <iuri> apophis, but i am sure there are more than 65 gigs
[20:43] <abchirk> Do add as source
[20:43] <skreet> jaivikram,  Sorry, you will need to edit /etc/passwd
[20:43] <abchirk> *To
[20:43] <jaivikram> aha
[20:43] <skreet> jaivikram,  "sudo nano -w /etc/passwd" would get you to an editor, or your editor of choice.
[20:44] <friel> >.< skreet, not sharing any folders.
[20:44] <NetEcho> is there an easy way to take screenshots of your desktop?
[20:44] <skreet> jaivikram,  find the line starting with your username and edit /bin/sh to /bin/bash
[20:44] <skreet> friel,  I've never shared from Ubuntu to Ubuntu but perhaps it only returns information if you are in fact sharing something?
[20:44] <mist> does anyone know how I can prevent X from running at boot time, I would like to just boot to a terminal and then be able to run startx or something of the like later on if I need gui
[20:44] <skreet> NetEcho, press print screen, very easy menu to take many screenshots
[20:44] <friel> skreet think you're right, feel like a numpty now :)
[20:44] <NetEcho> where does it save it?
[20:45] <skreet> NetEcho,  It will prompt you, try it now.
[20:45] <apophis> !pastebin | iuri can you copy paste your fdisk -l into a pastebin and send me the link? :
[20:45] <NetEcho> willdo
[20:45] <jaivikram> i use emacs...anywayz...it says.../bin/bash already
[20:45] <skreet> jaivikram,  Wierd, the only other thing that would override that is the terminal settings.  Did you change any of the settings of gnome-terminal?  (Or are you using another)?
[20:46] <jaivikram> m using a gnome terminal only...just that m on a fresh hardy install ...a few days old
[20:46] <yowshi> OMG someone needs to shoot the firefox dev team
[20:46] <skreet> yowshi, Lol, why?
[20:47] <yowshi> because it now looks better but the eye candy has come at the cost of speed
[20:47] <Scientus> can someone send me or paste bin 8.04 /etc/bash.bashrc i think i inadvertantally changed it
[20:47] <skreet> jaivikram,   Check this setting:  Edit > Current Profile > Title and Command > [Run a custom command...]  is that set to anything?
[20:47] <apophis> yowshi, I think FF3 is faster than FF2 ;)
[20:47] <iuri> apophis, i just installed gparted. things became clear now
[20:47] <apophis> iuri, ok :)
[20:47] <yowshi> skreet: on ocasion when i push a button in a game on firefox 3 the damn thing lags where it didnt with firefox 2
[20:47] <node357> yeah, Firefox 3 runs faster for me too
[20:47] <skreet> yowshi,  I agree with you.
[20:47] <iuri> apophis, i can see the unalocated space
[20:47] <skreet> :)
[20:47] <Scientus> is there any easy way to retrieve deafult /etc files?
[20:47] <apophis> iuri, good
[20:47] <skreet> Scientus,  Which file in particular, or did you do something bad?  ;)
[20:47] <yowshi> how do i make thing this look and behave like firefox 2
[20:48] <iuri> apophis, what reason i can't see on fdisk -l
[20:48] <skreet> yowshi,  Install Firefox 2?
[20:48] <threexk> how do you tell your wireless where to connect?
[20:48] <Scientus> it will prob still work only commented lines i think
[20:48] <skreet> iuri,   fdisk -l only works as root, fyi.
[20:48] <Scientus>   /etc/bash.bashrc for 8.04
[20:48] <zaggy-nl> HOLLAND \o/
[20:48] <yowshi> without doing that. unfortunatly with FF 3 out people wont wqrite addons for ff2
[20:48] <jaivikram> its not enabled
[20:48] <Scientus> want my nuild or something
[20:48] <Scientus> ?
[20:48] <Scientus> its fully updated
[20:48] <skreet> jaivikram,   That is very strange...
[20:48] <iuri> skreet,  i ran as root dah
[20:48] <jaivikram> the problem is in between sessions
[20:48] <skreet> Scientus,   I'll send you a pastebin of my default 8.04 file if you like.
[20:49] <skreet> iuri,  Just checking :)
[20:49] <jaivikram> its keeping history and scroll within a session
[20:49] <Scientus> skreet: thx
[20:49] <jaivikram> not between sessions
[20:49] <yowshi> and with with this new wabpage finishing drop down list when i type in an address
[20:49] <Scientus> if i edit /etc/bash.bashrc and add EXPORT PATH will that add to  my path for everything
[20:49] <yowshi> the damn thing is the size of half my screen and ugly as all hell
[20:49] <yowshi> not to mention distracting
[20:50] <Scientus> there could be a gui---its a pretty common thing to do...........
[20:50] <sr71Blackbird> I'm so registering wabpage.com
[20:50] <yowshi> what!>?!?!?! they even remove the click,m here to remove entry from down;load list
[20:50] <skreet> wow
[20:50] <mazyiar> apophis, i also wanted to know, i have friends on windows who can access my shares, but only if they put in my ip
[20:50] <skreet> is pastebin.ca slow as heck for anyone else too?
[20:50] <yowshi> where is firefox's forum site located i have got some flaming to do
[20:51] <mazyiar> apophis, is there any way to allow them to access using the computer name i've set?
[20:51] <mist> does anyone know how to boot to terminal/text only mode (ie no gui)
[20:51] <skreet> yowshi,  Be positive able it, no one likes flaming.
[20:51] <yowshi> skreet: i know, i know
[20:51] <jaivikram> thanks for the help skreet....will try asking the question in the channel again
[20:51] <sr71Blackbird> I'
[20:51] <skreet> jaivikram, No prob sorry I don't have any more advice.
[20:51] <jaivikram> @elky: my terminal is not keeping command history and scrollback between sessions
[20:51] <jaivikram> that's k..
[20:51] <apophis> mazyiar, have you set a NETBIOS name in the samba setting?
[20:52] <sr71Blackbird> ve been moving towards Epiphany for a while now, in place of Firefox.
[20:52] <extor> I installed the package php5-xdebug on a test system and it seems to have added some frills to error messages and to var_dump() but is there any documentation I can find which tells me the full features I added by installing this package?
[20:52] <sr71Blackbird> No real reason other than finding it a cleaner user experience.
[20:52] <skreet> Scientus,  My favorite pastebin is  broken, know of another?
[20:52] <yowshi> serious question though why isnt xmms in the repo? audacious is so annoying to get to play mp3's
[20:52] <Scientus> paste.ubuntu.com?
[20:52] <pedro> hola amigos como estan

[20:54] <s0ullight> threexk, using a laptop or a box with a button of the wireless?
[20:54] <skreet> yowshi,  Are you trying to build a source package?  If so, try "apt -get install build-essential"  should give you what you need.
[20:54] <Odd-rationale> ikaruga3000: like this?
[20:54] <ikaruga3000> yeah
[20:54] <ikaruga3000> thanx

[20:57] <skreet> yowshi,  Well, beep-media-player is a rebuild of xmms against GTK2 and some newer libs.. might want to check it out.
[20:57] <NetEcho> nevermind
[20:57] <apophis> mazyiar, I am not sure if there might be another setting for smb / NETBIOS ..
[20:57] <s0ullight> NetEcho, next to close there is a button unlock ;P

[20:58] <skreet> yowshi, The package used to be called "beep-media-player" but this was like, dapper drake days so I don't know if it's called something else.  Let me check.
[20:58] <s0ullight> NetEcho, did you make a local network? lan?
[20:58] <skreet> ugh

[21:00] <Narcissus> K, thanks
[21:00] <skreet> God, why do openoffice.org depend on a LINUX KERNEL?
[21:00] <evilbug> honzo- /join #ubuntu-pl
[21:01] <skreet> I'm sick of Ubuntu constantly updating my kernel, I run VMWare, I hate rebuilding every week.
[21:01] <NetEcho> Does anyone know why Samba/Nautlius would say I don't have permission to create a usershare when I have it checked off under permissions?
[21:01] <DarkTrancer> anyone know if there is a fix for the cdrom not mounting in 8.04?
[21:01] <s0ullight> NetEcho, try under root access
[21:01] <sleeping-bot> skreet: It doesn't.
[21:01] <bluefoxx> whats the latest news on ATI drivers in ubuntu? my old 6200 finally bit the dust...so im stuck with a radion 9600[until i repair this 5700 i found]
[21:01] <apophis> .
[21:01] <NetEcho> s0ullight you mean change the permissions for the root user?
[21:01] <sleeping-bot> skreet: otherwise how it runs on windows.
[21:02] <yowshi> oh dear god no. BMPx is not an xmms replacement. ugh such a huge and ugly interface
[21:02] <evilbug> bluefoxx- i'm running a mobility x1600 with no issues.
[21:02] <s0ullight> do what you want under root user
[21:02] <skreet> sleeping-bot,  Well, the package does.
[21:02] <skreet> So it's telling me I can't do upgrade without getting linux-kernel's newest build
[21:02] <NetEcho> s0ullight I can't even log into root
[21:02] <bluefoxx> evilbug;  cool...
[21:02] <NetEcho> unless you mean sudo nautilus
[21:02] <skreet> NetEcho,  Did you create more than one user account?
[21:02] <sleeping-bot> skeptic:  package may depend. for optimal installation
[21:02] <jayde_drag0n> anyone?.. i use rythmbox for my ipod.. and last night i tried to sync my ipod and clear up some unwanted junk off of it.. i think removing the files is what did it.. but now .. the ipod reports that everything is still on there in settings.. and when i connect it to my computer everything shows up.. but when i go to try and play anything on the ipod.. it says there is no music
[21:02] <s0ullight> NetEcho, gnome-terminal :D
[21:03] <bluefoxx> so how much trouble should i encounter if im going from a nvidia card and the nvidia driver to an ati card?
[21:03] <skreet> bluefoxx,  Well, not much, but the nvidia drivers are more reliable... :/
[21:03] <bluefoxx> oh and are brooktree tuner cards supported[they seem to be common so i presume so]
[21:03] <evilbug> bluefoxx- skreet's right.
[21:03] <s0ullight> the nvidiadrivers rock :D
[21:03] <NetEcho> s0ullight thanks using sudo seems to have worked
[21:04] <yowshi> ok since i cant get xmms can someone help me get audacious to play mp3's?
[21:04] <andycan> When can we expect 2.6.25.xx kernel in repos?
[21:04] <apophis> s0ullight, not that enthusiastic about illegal drivers :O
[21:04] <s0ullight> NetEcho, ur welcome pleased to help someone :D
[21:04] <bvd> Hi does anyone know how to get sound on an IBM X60s? I have read the guides and my modem is enabled in the BIOS but it still does not work.
[21:04] <bluefoxx> skreet;  ok, well then my install is fscked. as it wont boot at all with the ati card...[i tried a tnt2 i had and it booted but horridly choppy compaired to the norm]
[21:04] <s0ullight> apophis, i mean the official
[21:04] <teq> yowshi: just type sudo apt-get install xmms
[21:04] <yowshi> teq: xmms isnt in the repo
[21:04] <skreet> bluefoxx,   It's been so long since I've messed with config files for that stuff, used to be that you had to edit /etc/X11/xorg.conf -- can someone state if that's still true?
[21:05] <yowshi> teq: so apt-get wont work
[21:05] <teq> yowshi: i just installed it from the repo
[21:05] <MrPocknix_> sooo
[21:05] <Rabiddog> wtf?
[21:05] <s0ullight> teq, the package xmms isn't included into hardy i thought
[21:05] <apophis> s0ullight, but you mean the closed source driver ;)
[21:05] <Rabiddog> prince@House:~$ dir
[21:05] <Rabiddog> Floating point exception
[21:05] <teq> ohh im using 7.10
[21:05] <Rabiddog> why am I getting errors using basic commands lie ls or dir
[21:05] <s0ullight> apophis, the opensource ones are too unstable i think
[21:05] <evilbug> bluefoxx- i think reconfiguring xorg.conf would do the trick.
[21:05] <teq> yowshi: whats your problem?
[21:05] <apophis> yowshi, I am also quite sure there quite some xmms packets in the repo ;)
[21:05] <Rabiddog> like*
[21:05] <bluefoxx> evilbug;  if i could boot that is >. >
[21:06] <evilbug> bluefoxx- just boot into safe mode and do that from the console.
[21:06] <skreet> Rabiddog,   What errors??
[21:06] <yowshi> Package xmms is not available, but is referred to by another package.
[21:06] <yowshi> This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or
[21:06] <yowshi> is only available from another source
[21:06] <yowshi> E: Package xmms has no installation candidate
[21:06] <Rabiddog> skreet

[21:11] <Odd-rationale> Snowie: try brasero
[21:11] <skreet> Rabiddog,  I doubt it, they're so simple that I'd be surprised if there is real bugs in them.
[21:11] <yowshi> teq: yes. i got the source from them but i am missing some package configure: error: *** GLIB >= 1.2.2 not installed - please install first ***
[21:11] <evilbug> bluefoxx- creative is a pretty big brand and it should be supported.

[21:12] <evilbug> bluefoxx- happy hunting.
[21:12] <Rabiddog> skreet
[21:12] <yowshi> teq: would love tgo but i dont know where to get the package and sudo apt-get install glib doesnt work
[21:12] <Rabiddog> prince@House:/dev$ nano
[21:12] <Rabiddog> Segmentation fault
[21:12] <Rabiddog> lol
[21:12] <Led_Zeppelin> I am using wine, but I can't seem to click on any check boxes in the program
[21:12] <skreet> Rabiddog,  the strace is a record of system calls, and munmap is the call to "unmap memory" -- same as my bug.  I hunted for a few hours and ended up rebooting -- problem went away.  Have you rebooted?
[21:12] <skreet> Rabiddog,  Lol, yep.
[21:12] <Rabiddog> no I haven't rebooted
[21:12] <evilbug> Led_Zeppelin- go to #wine
[21:13] <yowshi> teq: well it kind of might but i dont know which of the glib options might solve my problem
[21:13] <skreet> Rabiddog,  Well, you could do what I did and throw a few hours at it -- but it didn't get me anywhere :(
[21:13] <skreet> what kernel?
[21:13] <s0ullight> Led_Zeppelin, were there any .dll errors in the installation?
[21:13] <skreet> run 'uname -r'
[21:13] <Led_Zeppelin> s0ullight, not sure, I just popped in the cd and ran setup.exe
[21:13] <teq> yowshi: try apt-get install glib 1.2.2
[21:13] <Rabiddog> skreet maybe I'll just file a bug report
[21:13] <teq> yowshi: or maybe wget will work
[21:13] <Owner> could someone tell me the windows channel?
[21:13] <evilbug> Owner- #windows
[21:14] <skreet> Rabiddog,  Include the strace, the fact that it happens in ls, dir and nano and a 'uname -r'..  Maybe it's a kernel bug.
[21:14] <yowshi> teq: wget needs a webpage to download and that apt-get glib 1.2.2 fails miserably
[21:14] <zainuddin> what the best software tools to develop php?
[21:14] <s0ullight> Led_Zeppelin, i would recommend you to try running the app from a gnome-terminal and look for errors
[21:14] <Rabiddog> k
[21:14] <teq> yowshi: i know wget needs a website
[21:14] <skreet> zainuddin,  It's a matter of preference, I use gedit and nano.  Some people use Eclipse (full IDE) with PHP modules.
[21:14] <rodpod> is there a link to an .xml rss feed for pack updates in ubuntu's repositories?
[21:14] <yowshi> teq: exactly and i dont know where to get this package
[21:15] <skreet> teq isn't wget part of the "gnutils" suite?
[21:15] <zainuddin> like dreamweaver in windows
[21:15] <Kirsch> hey all, i have ubuntu 8.04 (running the server distro) and i installed pptpd yesterday to VPN and that works great.. apparently too great. i can't access my SMB share locally without having to VPN into the server, did iturn something on by accident? (i restarted the server just now and this started happening)
[21:15] <teq> skreet: i think so, yes.
[21:15] <skreet> zainuddin,  I think Eclipse is pretty comparible, though dreamweaver writes HTML in WYSIWYG mode, I don't think Eclipse can do that?
[21:15] <teq> yowshi: hmmm
[21:15] <s0ullight> Kirsch, try killing it
[21:15] <Kirsch> skreet: no eclipse is for hand coding, there are probably plugins that give you a WYSIWYG
[21:15] <zainuddin> tq skreet
[21:16] <Kirsch> s0ullight: i want the VPN server to run
[21:16] <s0ullight> Kirsch, look for config files :s
[21:16] <yowshi> apt-get needs to be abkle to install specific libvraries or packages because thats what the error messages spit how. how am i supposed to know where to find this glib 1.2.2 or beter
[21:16] <skreet> Kirsch,  I don't mean to sound condescending, but why PPTP?
[21:16] <Kirsch> skreet: cause i found a doc to explain how to do it and it worked well
[21:16] <yowshi> spit out*
[21:16] <teq> yowshi: try this wget http://www.xmms.org/files/1.2.x/xmms-1.2.11.tar.gz
[21:16] <s0ullight> yowshi, apt-cache search glib1.2.2
[21:17] <skreet> Kirsch,  Fair enough, I like OpenVPN, I think it's called.
[21:17] <yowshi> teq i have the source
[21:17] <Kirsch> i stopped pptpd but i still can't access anything
[21:17] <shortc|laptop> I get error HTTP 403 Forbidden when I try to connect to hostname:631 from another machine on my network.
[21:17] <teq> yowshi: thats the tar
[21:17] <shortc|laptop> I'm running Ubuntu 8.04.
[21:17] <Kirsch> i did turn on ip_forwarding
[21:17]  * yowshi sighs* if your not going to pay atention please dont try to asist. i have told you and a couple others i have the source
[21:17] <antonsky> moin moin
[21:17] <yowshi> teq: the source doesnt  contain the glib package
[21:17] <mcscruff> lo all, does anyone know how to run aircrack-ng from the gnome menu, i have made an entry but am unsure of the full command to run it and leave terminal open
[21:17] <shortc|laptop> Can give me an idea of some things to check?
[21:17] <shortc|laptop> (er..."can someone give")
[21:17] <RabidWeezle> running hard heron, with kde, how do I change the resolution? A wine app switched it down and crashed...
[21:18] <skreet> yowshi,  Did you end up installing "build-essential"  -- that should contain glibc
[21:18] <RabidWeezle> hardy*
[21:18] <antonsky> whats the standard command for changing background image
[21:18] <yowshi> skreet: that was apparently already instralled cause it said it was already up to date when i ran it
[21:18] <superkuh> I am trying to disable automatic f-spot-import of pictures from USB mass storage devices on 8.04 w/gnome. I have detailed my attempts thusfar here, with error messages. Any help would be appreciated. http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=835715
[21:18] <Kirsch> yowshi: what are you trying to build?
[21:18] <chetnick> Hi, when i connect to my ftp server (running vsftpd) from my  ubuntu using nautilus and try to download folder i get this error "There was an error copying the file into /home/tux/Desktop." "File unavailable". When i try to download file it works fine. When i use different ftp client (gftp) it works fine. Does anybody know why is like that?
[21:18] <teq> yowshi: try the wget thing and then just try tar -xvvf to install it
[21:18] <yowshi> skreet: and yes it containds glibc but glibc isnt what i need
[21:18] <skreet> yowshi,  If I could fix my apt, I'd try to set up xmms on my system for comparison, but I'm not getting very far.
[21:19] <teq> yowshi: xzvf*
[21:19] <zainuddin> what the best tool to record desctop screen to avi

[21:19] <s0ullight> Zainuddin recordmydesktop
[21:20] <zainuddin> tq
[21:20] <Narcissus> Anyone know how to enable 3d acceleration on hardy? It's driving me nutty.
[21:20] <teq> yowshi: by doing the wget thing you will get the package and then install it
[21:20] <honzo> whot can i config my internet connect for more user's?
[21:20] <apophis> yowshi, you tried that: http://blog.sartek.net/2008/04/install-xmms-on-ubuntu-804-hardy-heron.html
[21:20] <Yooshi> can someone help me get frostwire to work? I got Azureus to work which means my Java is working fine
[21:20] <skreet> honzo,  Best way:  get a router.
[21:20] <teq> Yooshi: just stick to limewire
[21:20]  * yowshi sighs* teq i already have the package it isnt a deb file not double click install. i have unzipped it and tried to run the .;/configyre it told me i needed glib >=1.2.2
[21:21] <Yooshi> teq: blah I suppose
[21:21] <Yooshi> !limewire
[21:21] <honzo> of corse you idiot
[21:21] <teq> yowshi: ohh i missed that part of the problem, heh

[21:23] <siofwolves> I've got overlapping partitions, http://paste.ubuntu.com/21929/ It looks like its the swap partition. could i safely reboot with a live cd and remove that overlapping swap partition and create a new swap partition ?

[21:24] <AncientRelic> Does anyone have a recommendation for help with writing shell scripts?
[21:24] <Kirsch_> skreet: ok ya that worked
[21:24] <AncientRelic> as in a IRC channel
[21:24] <Kirsch_> skreet: since router technology sucks, i had to buy my 4th one a couple of days ago
[21:24] <soundray> AncientRelic: #bash
[21:24] <fesha> soundray: My laptop has a built in SD card reader but my system isnt seeing it
[21:24] <PriceChild> andatche: depends what shell you're using... if bash then try #bash?
[21:24] <skreet> Kirsch,  Home routers are awful, arn't they?  :)
[21:24] <AncientRelic> THanks yes I'm running Bash on Hardy
[21:24] <tripps> so why the frak can't I print a tomboy note?
[21:24] <PriceChild> fesha: an output of the lspci and lsusb commands would be helpful to anyone wanting to troubleshoot
[21:25] <skreet> Kirsch,   I've gone through more than I'd like, too, sometimes I just want to buy a Cisco or something.
[21:25] <soundray> AncientRelic: also have a look for the Advanced Bash Scripting guide on the web
[21:25] <Kirsch_> skreet: i give the router the mac address to always give the same device a static IP on my local network
[21:25] <AncientRelic> as for routers me loves my WRT54GL
[21:25] <Scientus_> is that eynaptic error fatal in any way?
[21:25] <Yooshi> is there any way I can get certain things to run on startup such as compiz?
[21:25] <teq> hey how can i play, an amr audio file? thanks
[21:25] <adante> hi, i am trying increasingly desperate things to make my 1920x1200 laptop panel show resolutions like 1440x900 -- just want to confirm it is extremely unlikely i blow up/do permanent damage to it correct?
[21:25] <Rabiddog> skreet comments on https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/241983 welcomed
[21:25] <kushal1> hello, I am on ubuntu 8.04 over wubi
[21:25] <Kirsch_> skreet: cause i do a lot of port forwarding, when i restart the server the IP switched causing all havoc to go weird
[21:25] <soundray> fesha: can you put the output of lspci and lsusb on paste.ubuntu.com for me to see?
[21:25] <PriceChild> adante: check the documentation that came with the monitor for supported modes, forcing others could cause problems.
[21:26] <PriceChild> adante: it is however unlikely.
[21:26] <kushal1> hello, I am on ubuntu 8.04 over wubi I need to reclaim some disk space therefore I uninstalled kde4 which i previously installed. how can I clean it up so that I can reclaim some disk space?
[21:26] <skreet> Rabiddog,   Since we talked I remember that I wasn't getting FP errors, I was get Sefaults.  Same line in strace though.
[21:26] <adante> PriceChild: it's a laptop display, haven't been able to find anything
[21:26] <joshritger> can anyone help me with bluetooth?
[21:26] <Rabiddog> skreet, maybe mention that in your comments to that bug
[21:26] <skreet> Rabiddog,  Will do
[21:26] <ozkelligirl> help
[21:26] <soundray> joshritger: perhaps. You have to say what the problem is.
[21:26] <ozkelligirl> help help
[21:27] <soundray> ozkelligirl: be sensible
[21:27] <PriceChild> ozkelligirl: ask the question
[21:27] <Kirsch_> here's another question, i compile my apache setup from source cause i'm a web developer and i need to customize my installs (for perl and php), i also have apache with SSL (everything works here), all i want to do is start the apahace server with an init script with SSL
[21:27] <ozkelligirl> how do i make sound louder vi;ome up
[21:27] <ozkelligirl> volume
[21:27] <PriceChild> kushal1: well you need to figure out where the disk space is being used, look at applications > accessories > disk usage analizer
[21:27] <Rabiddog> skreet, best to document the bug now in case it reoccurs
[21:27] <joshritger> soundray: I go through the documentation for connecting a keyboard, but it doesn't seem to work, oh and I am using 8.04
[21:27] <skreet> ozkelligirl,   That's your urgent issue?  >.>  There a speaker icon in the top right of your screen.
[21:27] <PriceChild> kushal1: *analyser
[21:27] <Rabiddog> I'll be doing a reboot shortly to see if it goes away
[21:28] <Kirsch_> the script i think i found is only for non-ssl, in essence i need it to do /usr/local/apache/bin/apachectl startssl
[21:28] <kushal1> thanks PriceChild
[21:28] <ozkelligirl> voume right up
[21:28] <joshritger> soundray: in gutsy 7.10 I had no problems connecting it
[21:28] <PriceChild> kushal1: *DON'T* delete anything that you haven't specifically added yourself outside of /home
[21:28] <soundray> joshritger: did you upgrade from gutsy or did you do a fresh installation?
[21:28] <joshritger> soundray: fresh install
[21:28] <RabidWeezle> can I install kubuntu's stuff over ubuntu's stuff?
[21:28] <RabidWeezle> without losing anything?
[21:28] <evilbug> RabidWeezle- yes.
[21:29] <RabidWeezle> what's the apt on that?
[21:29] <PriceChild> RabidWeezle: sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop
[21:29] <evilbug> RabidWeezle- sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop
[21:29] <soundray> joshritger: did you follow any kind of guide?
[21:29] <RabidWeezle> thanks
[21:29] <kushal1> I installed kde4 and now I uninstalled it. however, I don't see the disk space reclaimes
[21:29] <evilbug> HEY!
[21:29] <kushal1> *reclaimed
[21:29] <Kirsch_> hold on i think i just messed up really badly
[21:29] <joshritger> soundray: I followed the guide from ubuntu https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BluetoothInputDevices?action=show&redirect=BluetoothMouse
[21:29] <soundray> ozkelligirl: do you have gnome?
[21:30] <PriceChild> RabidWeezle: see http://psychocats.net/ubuntu/puregnome for removing it if you so choose
[21:30] <ozkelligirl> ubuntu8.04
[21:30] <soundray> joshritger: and how far do you get?
[21:30] <soundray> ozkelligirl: there is a loudspeaker symbol next to the clock on the top panel. Click it and slide it up
[21:30] <ozkelligirl> yes
[21:31] <fesha> soundray: lspci and lsusb are at http://paste.ubuntu.com/21933/
[21:31] <ozkelligirl> it is full up
[21:31] <ozkelligirl> sound is low
[21:31] <joshritger> soundray: I get to the last step where it says to enter password, i enter a password on my wired keyboard, then repeat the password on my bluetooth keyboard, then press enter
[21:31] <soundray> ozkelligirl: not enough? Double click the loudspeaker and see if you can increase PCM as well
[21:31] <wax_man> anybody know how to install freeimage on Dapper Drake?
[21:32] <ozkelligirl> thanks kiss kiss
[21:32] <kushal1> when I remove an application, does it get deleted from the hard disk?
[21:32] <Skyrail|Building> When I play a song through say either Rythmbox or last.fm's music player my speakers act really fuzzy however when I play a video off youtube it's fine. And for months I've been lend to thought it was just my speakers until I found out about youtube being fine. Any ideas why this may be?
[21:32] <soundray> joshritger: is that the exact procedure you used before?
[21:32] <joshritger> yes
[21:33] <apophis> kushal1, not immediatly but the cache will expire
[21:33] <soundray> joshritger: I suppose you've checked the battery...
[21:33] <yoshimit> Hello! I need help with ALSA (sound)? after installing kernel 2.6.24-19 the sound do not work anymore with 2.6.24-16 kernel (and I need to run in 2.6.24-16 too)... any help, please??
[21:33] <skreet> Skyrail|Building,  Check the settings for gstream audio device under System > Preferences > Sound -- I had a similiar issue using "Auto Detect" for my output.  Changing this to Alsa and testing was much better.  Try that.
[21:33] <joshritger> soundray: brand new
[21:33] <kushal1> how can I make it delete it sooner? I am making a home movie and I need about a gig more
[21:33] <crimsun_> yoshimit: sudo /etc/init.d/alsa-utils reset
[21:33] <apophis> kushal1, sudo apt-get clean
[21:33] <kushal1> thanks a lot
[21:34] <joshritger> soundray: I can get bluetooth to connect to my phone, so I know it works somewhat
[21:34] <apophis> you're welcome
[21:34] <Angela_Smith> hello, i just did an update, and now GRUB dose not list my windows partition, how can I fix this? TIA :)
[21:34] <soundray> joshritger: can you see your keyboard ID with hcitool scan ?
[21:34] <kushal1> do we have a channel for wubi?
[21:35] <joshritger> soundray: i haven't tried, will try now
[21:35] <Skyrail|Building> skreet: will try that, thanks
[21:35] <apophis> Angela_Smith, you had multiboot working? and now its gone?
[21:35] <soundray> fesha: sorry, I'll get to yours in a minute
[21:35] <Angela_Smith> apophis, yes it was working great untull i updated
[21:35] <Angela_Smith> untill^
[21:35] <joshritger> soundray: yes hcitool scan does see it
[21:36] <skreet> Has anyone used Sirius Internet Radio with Ubuntu?
[21:36] <Elijah> i need help with ubuntu using a inernet connected vista laptop with a patch cable
[21:36] <thadeoc> hi, does anyone know an easy way to get to the repository preferences screen? you used to be able to get to it from the add/remove programs menu, but now you have to actually run the package manager, download something, and hope that the icon comes up in the notification area. or am i missing something?
[21:36] <skreet> Okay scratch that more important question:  I'm getting this from apt:  debconf: Perl may be unconfigured (Invalid range "a-Z" in transliteration operator at /usr/lib/perl5/vars.pm line 17.
[21:36] <Skyrail> skreet: will I have to restart to notice any changes?
[21:37] <Elijah> on vista my LAN connection doesn't even have a default gateway, it has a subnet mask and a ip address but not a 192.190... ip addy
[21:37] <yoshimit> crimsun_: thank you, but do not work... my sound icon still has the red block signal... no sound... It gives me this message (when I double click it):  No GStreamer module and/or device was found...
[21:37] <nikosapi> what's the difference between linux-headers-lum and linux-headers?
[21:37] <skreet> Skyrail,  I don't... remember...  The "Test" link should work immediately.  Was that "fuzzy"?
[21:37] <apophis> Angela_Smith, you know on which parition windos resides on?  I would repair the /boot/grub/menu.lst file, but I am not sure if there isnt an easier way
[21:37] <crimsun_> yoshimit: what's the output from `lspci -nv|grep -A1 040[13]'?
[21:37] <soundray> joshritger: I'm sorry, I can't seem to help you. You might ask the channel again.
[21:37] <skreet> Ugh, my perl is very broken.
[21:37] <siofwolves> thadeoc, run adept > manage repositories
[21:38] <joshritger> ok
[21:38] <Angela_Smith> apophis, it looks like it made a backup of menu.1st i am looking at it now
[21:38] <Skyrail> skreet: nope, that's the problem the beep is fine
[21:38] <soundray> fesha: line 21 -- could that be your card reader?
[21:38] <yoshimit> crimsun_: 00:1b.0 0403: 8086:293e (rev 02)

[21:38] <Skyrail> As is youtube, it's just rythmbox and last.fm's player, which is weird as it's flash just like youtube
[21:38] <skreet> Is there a way to purge a package and reinstall it without uninstalling all the dependencies?
[21:38] <thadeoc> thanks siowolves
[21:38] <soundray> skreet: sudo apt-get --reinstall install packagename
[21:38] <skreet> Skyrail, Rhythmbox is GStreamer, not sure about last.fm
[21:38] <Elijah> any help on setting up a ubuntu connection
[21:38] <Elijah> internet/lan
[21:38] <skreet> soundray, Thank you.
[21:38] <apophis> you would only need to copy the part for windows, but make sure you have a live CD aswell in case grub won't boot
[21:38] <Elijah> though vista ics
[21:39] <siofwolves> thadeoc, sorry, i'm running kubuntu..
[21:39] <yigal> I just installed 8.04 but my broadcom isn't being detected via ifconfig, but is listed with lspci, after ndiswrapper installation anyone have clue what could be going on?
[21:39] <thadeoc> hmm ok i can't try it at the moment as i'm at work
[21:39] <Elijah> the only way I can get internet is through my vista laptop right now
[21:39] <skreet> soundray, UGH.  Apt is broken because Perl isn't working, so I can't do that...
[21:39] <skreet> Ideas?
[21:39] <Skyrail> skreet: mhmm, okay, I'll have to just live it out then, or buy new speakers, or something. It's somewhat intermittent
[21:39] <Elijah> i need to connect my ubuntu tower to it so i can download software for the modem
[21:39] <yigal> I'm back using my debian partition, which is using the card no problem
[21:39] <skreet> Skyrail,  Another thought wouuld be volume, if it's too high that might happen..
[21:40] <Skyrail> skreet: can you remove perl manually and then try and find the files to manually reinstall it?
[21:40] <skreet> Skyrail, That sounds dangerous.... ::scared::
[21:40] <Elijah> hwat should firefox options be set to for it to use the internet
[21:40] <evilbug> does ubuntu server have the same issues as with desktop between 32 and 64 bit?
[21:40] <Elijah> proxy?
[21:40] <Skyrail> skreet: yeh I know it does and I wouldn't venture to do it myself either haha
[21:40] <skreet> it's the files in /usr/lib/perl5 that are causing errors on apt scripts... I tracked a few errors down to legitimate bugs..
[21:40] <Leefmc> Question: There was a program to enable a wallpaper to span accross multiple desktops. Anyone know what that was? I forget the name of it.
[21:41] <soundray> skreet: you might boot from a live CD, find out the file list of the faulty packages with dpkg -L and copy them from the live CD system into yours
[21:41] <Elijah> no proxy, auto-detect proxy settings
[21:41] <soundray> skreet: this could easily end up being more work than just doing a fresh installation
[21:41] <yoshimit> crimsun_: do you saw my message?
[21:41] <skreet> I had that thought.
[21:41] <crimsun_> yoshimit: yes, I was checking the source code.
[21:41] <soundray> fesha: still here?
[21:42] <fesha> soundray: Yes I belive to be but my I still cant access my SD card
[21:42] <Kirsch> ok lets try this again
[21:42] <Kirsch> lol
[21:42] <yoshimit> crimsun_: ok. sorry. can you call me anytime...
[21:42] <crimsun_> yoshimit: do you have linux-ubuntu-modules-2.6.24-19-generic installed?
[21:42] <Kirsch> skreet: did you get my last message?
[21:42] <soundray> fesha: apart from the SD card slot, is there a PCMCIA slot as well?
[21:42] <yigal> ah, for my own edification I found a bug report https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/203819
[21:42] <fesha> soundray: yes
[21:43] <Yooshi> how do I give an app that is running in wine internet access?
[21:43] <CorbinFox> is there a way to stop the fishy from the Free the Fish thing from swimming?  SHe is cute and all, but starting to get on my nerves XD
[21:43] <yoshimit> crimsun_: yes, but I`m using 2.6.24-16 now
[21:43] <yoshimit> crimsun_: only in 2.6.24-16 the nvidia driver works... :(
[21:43] <skreet> Kirsch,   did it have my name in it, I don't see it...?
[21:43] <soundray> fesha: when you run 'tail -f /var/log/syslog', then insert the SD card, is there any indication that the system notices the insertion?
[21:43] <ariqs> is there a mirror for debian.packages.org?
[21:43] <Kirsch> skreet: no i didn't put anyones name, i need an init script to start apache with ssl
[21:43] <yoshimit> crimsun_: wait a minute... I will confirm this package
[21:44] <soundray> ariqs: why debian? This is ubuntu...
[21:44] <joshritger> can someone help me trouble shoot a bluetooth keyboard, I have tried to follow the ubuntu community documentation on how to connect it. I have scanned with hcitool scan and it picks up the keyboard, when I go to pair it, it will not pair. this is in 8.04, in 7.10 it worked fine.
[21:44] <Leefmc> Question: Does GEdit have any form of wildcard search? (CtrlF searching the document)
[21:44] <skreet> Kirsch, I don't think the init script has to change?
[21:44] <yoshimit> crimsun_: yes... I have this modulo installed...
[21:44] <Kirsch> skreet: i don't have one cause i compile my own apache instance
[21:45] <ariqs> soundray: there is a debian package I want, that afaik will work with ubuntu
[21:45] <fesha> soundray: No it doesnt seem to noticeat all
[21:45] <Rabiddog> skreet
[21:45] <ariqs> but debian.packages.org is slow as can be
[21:45] <skreet> Rabiddog,  yeah?
[21:45] <Rabiddog> Can't get it to load no more
[21:45] <soundray> fesha: have you tested this reader in any other OS?
[21:45] <skreet> Kirsch,  Are you compiling from deb-src?
[21:45] <Rabiddog> skreet its fucked
[21:45] <Rabiddog> oops
[21:45] <skreet> Rabiddog,  the system?
[21:46] <ompaul> !apache | Kirsch its in the repos
[21:46] <Rabiddog> skreet I think so
[21:46] <skreet> Rabiddog,  LiveCD and fsck is in order, I bet.
[21:46] <ariqs> i was just going to compile the package, but of course, that turned into a giant mess fast, and no one will help me with the problem I have with compiling it
[21:46] <Rabiddog> skreet I agree
[21:46] <soundray> ariqs: you can go through the debian/pool/ directory of any debian apt mirror
[21:46] <l_r> hello. i want to make a second local user to connect to the same local X server. When i do "sudo xhost +local" manually the X clients can connect, while when adding the entry "local:" to /etc/X0.hosts, as suggested by the X manuals, the thing does not work, until i still do "sudo xhost +local" manually. do you have any idea?
[21:46] <GizmoTheG> anyone that has kubuntu hardy heron on theor ps3 and like to give me a hand?

[21:46] <Rabiddog> skreet is the live cd 8.04.1?
[21:46] <fesha> soundray: I have tested it on windows and it worked
[21:46] <ompaul> !dvd | _phoenix_
[21:46] <skreet> Rabiddog, I didn't know there was an 8.04.1
[21:47] <Drk_Guy> !dvd | _phoenix_
[21:47] <Rabiddog> skreet there will be with the new kernel fix
[21:47] <crimsun_> yoshimit: please download and run http://hg.alsa-project.org/alsa/raw-file/tip/alsa-info.sh
[21:47] <ariqs> I'd be willing to bet money that compile link will have nothing I want, but i'll click and see ;P
[21:47] <Drk_Guy> Fck
[21:47] <Drk_Guy> Sound isn't responding after i've got out of Nexuiz
[21:47] <Rabiddog> skreet the latest kernel fixes a major bug that causes a problem on my system
[21:47] <Drk_Guy> What can i do?
[21:47] <yoshimit> crimsun_: ok. one min...
[21:47] <ompaul> !language | Drk_Guy
[21:47] <skreet> Rabiddog,  Which bug?
[21:47] <Drk_Guy> Sorry
[21:47] <Rabiddog> dmraid regression
[21:48] <skreet> tell me it's RAID 1...
[21:48] <fesha> soundray: Thanx for trying to help but I got to go
[21:48] <Drk_Guy> Sound isn't responding after i've got out of Nexuiz
[21:48] <Drk_Guy> What can i do?
[21:48] <ariqs> yep, that compile link is worthless to compiling what I want to compile
[21:49] <ompaul> ariqs, what do you want to compile?
[21:49] <olin> having difficulty mounting my cdrom for data
[21:49] <Rabiddog> skreet: umm its raid 5
[21:49] <ompaul> !build-essential | ariqs this helps with compiling
[21:49] <ariqs> hedgewars, it requires cmake and free pascal
[21:49] <ariqs> I already have build essentials
[21:49] <ariqs> gah
[21:49] <ariqs> gah!
[21:49] <ompaul> ahh
[21:50] <superkuh> I am trying to disable automatic f-spot-import of pictures from USB mass storage devices on 8.04 w/gnome. I have detailed my attempts thusfar here, with Dbus error messages. Any help would be appreciated. http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=835715
[21:50] <ompaul> hedgewars exists in apt - if ariqs turns up again
[21:50] <_phoenix_> ompaul it dont start the main menue
[21:50] <Yooshi> seems to me limewire is a wine thing not a native thing
[21:50] <olin> what are the commands, please to mount
[21:51] <yoshimit> crimsun_: http://pastebin.ca/1052638
[21:51] <soundray> !limewire | Yooshi
[21:51] <olin> I meant to mount a cdrom
[21:51] <Yooshi> I've tried
[21:51] <Yooshi> at least limewire works
[21:51] <Elijah> How do I use Ubuntu with Vista ICS
[21:51] <soundray> Yooshi: it's not wine
[21:52] <Yooshi> soundray:  I have an app that works in wine but it can't see the internet is there any way I can get it to see the 'net?
[21:52] <ompaul> _phoenix_, ehh look at this web page, https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RestrictedFormats
[21:52] <Yooshi> soundray:  I know its not wine... but nevermind
[21:52] <Elijah> I have ubuntu and a sprint u727 modem which is useless unless i install packages
[21:52] <Yooshi> limewire doesn't install as a package
[21:52] <Elijah> the only way i can install packages is to get internet to it
[21:52] <MrWizeGuy1983> Yooshi, what do you mean limewire doesn't install as a package?
[21:52] <Elijah> the only computer that works right now with  my u727 modem is my vista laptop
[21:53] <Elijah> help me
[21:53] <MrWizeGuy1983> Yooshi, i have limewire pro 4.16 in a .deb file if you want it
[21:53] <Yooshi> MrWizeGuy1983:  the instructions says to start limewire by running runlimewire.sh
[21:53] <soundray> Elijah: please keep it on one line. You can download the packages you need in Vista, then copy them to your package cache (/var/cache/apt/archives/)
[21:53] <Yooshi> MrWizeGuy1983:  please :), what do I have to give you so you're happy? :D
[21:53] <MrWizeGuy1983> Yooshi, can i try to send you the .deb file? all you have to do is install it with the package manager
[21:53] <MrWizeGuy1983> lol
[21:53] <Yooshi> nice, thats better
[21:54] <Yooshi> haha, send away
[21:54] <Elijah> soundray, how would i donwload packages in vista? what website
[21:54] <Yooshi> I'm using pidgin I'm not sure how to get DCC
[21:54] <Horscht> hi
[21:54] <yoshimit> hehe... I think I have a parent here...
[21:54] <Leefmc> Question: This'll sound a little odd, but does anyone know how to make it so that in firefox, if you click your url address bar, the entire text is selected by default? This is my main search bar, so damn near every time i have to "click it to select it, ctrl-a to select all, and delete (or start typing)". Its an unneeded habit.
[21:54] <MrWizeGuy1983> Yooshi, did you get the file transfer request?
[21:54] <Horscht> I am trying to install the package libgl1-mesa-dev, but I always get an error:
[21:54] <Horscht> E: /var/cache/apt/archives/libgl1-mesa-dev_7.0.3~rc2-1ubuntu3_all.deb: Fehler beim Erzeugen des symbolischen Verweises »./usr/lib/libGL.so«
[21:55] <Yooshi> MrWizeGuy1983:  I did, but its waiting
[21:55] <soundray> superkuh: would disabling automount in general be a solution for you?
[21:55] <Horscht> (error creating symbolic link)
[21:55] <Yooshi> for some reason I never have any luck with DCC
[21:55] <MrWizeGuy1983> i can email it to you if you like, can paste your email
[21:55] <joshritger> soundray: I finally got it to work, don't really know how, just kept doing it and it finally worked
[21:55] <Yooshi> MrWizeGuy1983: yeah I'll pm you my email
[21:55] <superkuh> soundray: Not really. I find automount useful for manually transfering the pictures. I just don't want f-spot-import butting in.
[21:55] <MrWizeGuy1983> ok
[21:55] <apophis> Horscht, try / sudo rm /usr/lib/libGL.so and retry
[21:55] <soundray> joshritger: bluetooth is black magic sometimes
[21:56] <Wolfkin> I have an old corporate computer my sister got form her old job. It's not the most powerful thing out there so I thought I'd try to install Linux on it. My question is how should I go about reformatting the entire thing and installing Ubuntu?
[21:56] <joshritger> soundray: I have never had any issues in the past with it, I have used it with the past 3 releases
[21:56] <ompaul> Wolfkin, the install process will look after that, before you do, how powerful is it and how much ram, and how much disk
[21:56] <apophis> Wolfkin, you will be asked which drive you want to use during install, it will be automatically partitioned and formatted :) but be sure to copy your important data before that
[21:56] <yoshimit> crimsun_: do you think that I need to uninstall 2.6.24-19 ?
[21:56] <soundray> superkuh: have you seen System-Preferences-Removable Drives and Media ?
[21:56] <Wolfkin> sorry. brg
[21:57] <superkuh> Yes.
[21:57] <apophis> Wolfkin, if the machine is really quite old maybe xubunutu is even better
[21:57] <superkuh> That was the first thing I did.
[21:57] <superkuh> The second is detailed in the forum post.
[21:57] <s0ullight> just installed xmms :D
[21:58] <Horscht> apophis, same error
[21:58] <joshritger> does anyone know if envyng installs the nvidia control center?
[21:58] <soundray> superkuh: what happens when you replace 'f-spot-import' in that dialog with 'true'
[21:58] <soundray> ?
[21:58] <Horscht> but I wonder... it says "./usr/lib/libGL.so" not "/usr/lib/libGL.so", apophis
[21:59] <CorbinFox> is there a way to stop the fish from swimming from the Free the Fish app?
[21:59] <joshritger> nevermind, it does install it, just wasn't in the same place as last time
[21:59] <larson999> i never really understood envy and nvidia.  nvidia has been easy to install on it's own for about 10 years.
[22:00] <larson999> or maybe 8
[22:00] <apophis> Horscht, sorry I see it now
[22:00] <GizmoTheG> hmm, hardy heron (kubuntu 8.04) seems to not work on ps3 :/
[22:00] <Horscht> apophis, is that an error in the package?
[22:00] <yowshi> bloody indexer why is this damned desktop search thing standard now. and how do i uninstakll it
[22:00] <SpookyET> hi
[22:00] <apophis> Horscht,  I dont know... bet lets try to clean apt--- sudo apt-get clean
[22:00] <SpookyET> Would anyone care to explain /lib/udev/devices to me? How is it different than /dev?
[22:00] <apophis> maybe that helps
[22:01] <yowshi> this tracker/indexing thingy
[22:01] <superkuh> soundray: I did as you suggested. f-spot still intervenes. That does narrow down the problem a bit more, though. Thank you for your help.
[22:01] <Horscht> i'll give it a shot, apophis
[22:01] <elbasan_>  I have a digital camera ChameleonMega and I am trying to connect to my kubuntu\
[22:01] <soundray> superkuh: I think the way hardy handles removable devices is buggy
[22:01] <elbasan_> any help
[22:02] <apophis> SpookyET, the /dev devices are special files which are created by hand /dev/udev/ are devices which are created by the /udev/ service ... which is dynamic
[22:02] <yowshi> how do i make this desktop indexer thing not show up or start up on reboot?
[22:02] <NetEcho> the remote desktop tool under system preferences
[22:02] <NetEcho> can I connect to it using a VNC client?
[22:02] <apophis> NetEcho, yes
[22:02] <Horscht> apophis, the error still remains :(
[22:02] <RUS|jamzor> hello :XD
[22:02] <RUS|jamzor> so i downloaded wubi
[22:03] <BlackGlance> hello all
[22:03] <SpookyET> apophis: rubbish, only /dev/null /dev/console /dev/null are created by hand. the rest are virtual. Is everything /lib/udev/devices virtual?
[22:03] <RUS|jamzor> but hey
[22:03] <RUS|jamzor> who was the guy who helped me :D
[22:03] <RUS|jamzor> Is it safe to install ubuntu on C too?
[22:03] <RUS|jamzor> what about that partition?
[22:04] <apophis> SpookyET, I can create as many tty files as I want... are they dynamic?
[22:04] <soundray> superkuh: the behaviour you're describing clearly merits a bug report
[22:04] <apophis> SpookyET, but let me know if you know more :)
[22:04] <s0ullight> people i'm making a .deb of the xmms for hardy heron but i can't serve it is there anyone interested in distributing it?
[22:05] <superkuh> s0ullight: I have one.
[22:05] <SpookyET> apophis: boot with a livecd and mount the partition. look in dev. it should be empty except those 3 files
[22:05] <superkuh> s0ullight: Are you x86_64?
[22:05] <s0ullight> no i386
[22:05] <superkuh> http://superkuh.ath.cx/~superkuh/xmms_1.2.11-1_amd64.deb
[22:05] <superkuh> Oh...
[22:05] <superkuh> Oh well.
[22:06] <s3a> i got alot of rar files as extensions up to .r92 and one was a .rar and the unrar-free package didn't work for me so I got the rar package, the non-free package (rar) looked like it had the situation under control but i get an error message and the most important thing to note in that message is: Inappropriate ioctl for device   ---> What does this mean and what can I do about it?
[22:06] <s0ullight> superkuh, wanna serve it?
[22:06] <apophis> SpookyET, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Udev
[22:06] <xbj9000> s3a: not sure, but what apps have you used to try to open it?
[22:06] <SpookyET> apophis: i know what it is
[22:07] <superkuh> s0ullight: Serve what? Also, if you want help with xmms: http://blog.sartek.net/2008/04/install-xmms-on-ubuntu-804-hardy-heron.html and then use checkinstall to make the deb. "$ checkinstall --install=no -D"
[22:07] <s3a> xbj9000: it needs to be extracted so i cant rely open them b4 extracting them which is wat i tried to do with these 2 packages (apps): rar and unrar-free
[22:07] <s0ullight> superkuh, i installed it and running it atm but for those who have difficulties i'm making a .deb but i can't serve it :(
[22:07] <superkuh> You might have to run checkinstall as root, or fakeroot so it won't complain, but didn't.
[22:07] <apophis> SpookyET, so why do you ask anyway... omg
[22:08] <superkuh> Oh. I see.
[22:08] <xbj9000> s3a, extract is what I meant by 'open', sorry
[22:08] <superkuh> Well, my bandwidth is fairly limited. I just keep debs there for friends.
[22:08] <superkuh> Sorry.
[22:08] <s0ullight> you don't have to feel bad :D
[22:08] <SpookyET> apophis: i asked which files are created by the file system and which are virtual
[22:08] <s0ullight> i'll find someplace :D
[22:08] <s3a> xbj9000: so u have no suggestions to help me? :(
[22:08] <peter86> my ubuntu cant launch movies .avi and other
[22:09] <xbj9000> only that I prefer to use xarchiver for .rar files
[22:09] <xbj9000> and sometimes if it doesn't work I use xarchive
[22:09] <xbj9000> similar name but different
[22:09] <chachin> hello
[22:10] <xbj9000> I hope that helps, s3a
[22:10] <chachin> how can i get ubuntu for my windows xp 2001
[22:10] <xbj9000> chachin, more specific please?
[22:10] <s3a> xbj9000: wait xarchiver is another .rar app i can try?
[22:10] <light_saber_> windows xp 2001?
[22:10] <xbj9000> yes, s3a
[22:10] <BlackGlance> hey, I'm new here,  can I ask questions about problems in Ubuntu here?
[22:10] <Dee> hi all
[22:10] <kymo> real player ne fonctionne pas sur linux
[22:10] <chachin> yes
[22:10] <apophis> chachin, ubuntu is a operating system like windows, you cannot get ubunutu FOR windows
[22:10] <Dee> i cant install ubuntu 8.04
[22:11] <light_saber_> yes BlackGlance
[22:11] <Dee> with wubi:S?
[22:11] <chachin> oh ok nevermind
[22:11] <BlackGlance> ok. I have one question:
[22:11] <BlackGlance> hey. I have one question. when I click on Unmount Volume (it's flash memory) it says that I can deattach it safely, but in Windows the light on the flash memory turned off when I remove that.
[22:11] <RUS|jamzor> so can anyone help me with installing ubuntu with Wubi ???
[22:11] <chachin> this channel needs more ops and admins
[22:11] <Dee> i try it to install with wubi but dont boot on ubuntu
[22:11] <jamzore> But does it overwrite my windows or smth?
[22:11] <jamzore> and can i choose either ubuntu or xp
[22:11] <jamzore> when i boot my pc?
[22:11] <xbj9000> s3a do you know how to get xarchiver?
[22:12] <funkyHat> chachin: there are several around, they don't need to advertise that they are ops all the time. :)
[22:12] <jamzore> hey, anyone know?
[22:12] <BlackGlance> answer me pleas :)
[22:12] <s3a> xbj9000: is it in the repositories?
[22:12] <chachin> oh i see
[22:12] <xbj9000> s3a yes
[22:12] <apophis> jamzore, it can overwrite your windows, but you can also install a multiboot which means at bootup you can chose
[22:12] <soundray> !dualboot | jamzore
[22:12] <david_> hello. how do i remove evolution without removing ubuntu-desktop?
[22:12] <s3a> xbj9000: sudo apt-get install xarchiver?
[22:12] <chachin> wats the command to register my nick
[22:12] <jamzore> thx
[22:12] <funkyHat> BlackGlance: I believe that's because on windows, when you unmount a volume the power is cut too, but on Linux it is just unmounted but left powered
[22:13] <chachin> its the first time ever i been here on mIRC
[22:13] <xbj9000> yes s3a, sorry  :p
[22:13] <soundray> david_: you can't. It's safe to remove ubuntu-desktop, though, it's just a metapackage.
[22:13] <kymo> hello
[22:13] <Kirsch> hey guys i'm trying to debug some SMTP issues, when i telnet to one of my other servers via port 25 i get a response, however when i do it from my server, i don't, what would be the cause of this? i don't have iptables
[22:13] <apophis> chachin, welcome to IRC :)
[22:13] <chachin> sup apophis
[22:13] <funkyHat> BlackGlance: that means you can mount it again without having to unplug it and plug it back in again... so it could be seen as a good thing
[22:13] <david_> soundray, it removes too many programs i need...
[22:13] <BlackGlance> aha. thanks funkyHat
[22:13] <s3a> xbj9000: k, thx for ur help im gona go now
[22:13] <jpw27_> I'm only downloading at 1.4 KB/sec, but my connection is able for 160+.  is there any way to reset my internet connection?
[22:13] <soundray> david_: if you want to do a release upgrade sometime later, you should reinstall ubuntu-desktop
[22:13] <chachin> wats the command to register my nick
[22:13] <david_> register
[22:14] <xbj9000> ok s3a I hope that works for you
[22:14] <chachin> yea
[22:14] <soundray> !register | chachin
[22:14] <Wolfkin> ompaul and apophis thanks for responding. as I tried to imply earlier the computer isn't originally mine so I don't care for the data that's currently on it. I'm ok with wiping the whole thing out. It's currently running WinME I think or Win2000 i forget. I'll try the disc and it sounds like it should do what I want automatically.
[22:14] <chachin> wow
[22:14] <chachin> thats complicated
[22:14] <apophis> Wolfkin, maybe you should download the "Alternative" version, which only need 64MB (AFAIK)
[22:14] <funkyHat> hm
[22:14] <ompaul> Wolfkin, yeap but if under powered try xubuntu it works on lower powered machines
[22:15] <chachin> i tought it was only ./msg nickserv register nick pass
[22:15] <Dee> can anyone her help me to install ubuntu with a wubi i cant boot on ubuntu when i try to install????
[22:15] <Wolfkin> alternate.. ok I'll try that if this disc doesn't work
[22:15] <wiredman432> #leave
[22:15] <chachin> !!stats chachin
[22:15] <chachin> lol
[22:15] <funkyHat> Is Gmail swallowing encrypted messages, or does Launchpad take a while to send out the PGP key activation email?
[22:15] <Kirsch> does ubuntu add any security by default to filter some outgoing ports but not all?
[22:15] <chachin> !!elky
[22:15] <chachin> lol
[22:15] <Wolfkin> ok on a related note.. if I try to boot from the disc live and it doesn't work.. does it for sure mean that I can't install?
[22:15] <soundray> chachin: don't do this please
[22:15] <chachin> do wat
[22:16] <soundray> !botabuse | chachin
[22:16] <chachin> oh ok
[22:16] <xbj9000> wolfkin, is your PC set to boot from CDROM?
[22:16] <BABA_RECORD> !help what program i need to install my webcam ?
[22:16] <Wolfkin> is it
[22:16] <chachin> oh lol
[22:16] <Wolfkin> sorry.. it is
[22:16] <soundray> !webcam | BABA_RECORD
[22:16] <xbj9000> wolfkin does it skip the CD entirely or fail while trying to boot?
[22:17] <jamzore> !dualboot
[22:17] <jamzore> Resizing Partitions Using the Ubuntu Installer
[22:17] <jamzore> under this i dont get it
[22:17] <jamzore> Choose the First Option (It should be something like: "Resize IDE1 master, partition #1 (hda1) and use freed space").
[22:17] <Wolfkin> well i only tried one time.. it began to boot from disc.. i left it when I came back the screen was no longer showing the Ubuntu Logo.. it was just black and i had to force shutdown.
[22:17] <jamzore> where is this lol?
[22:18] <jamzore> is it on the installer or?
[22:18] <xbj9000> wolfkin you have low ram, right?
[22:18] <soundray> jamzore: when you start the installer from the live CD, you get to the partitioning options
[22:18] <apophis> jamzore, thats one of the steps in the installer, your Hard Drives might be different then the one in the example, if you have multiple harddrives, be sure you select the right one
[22:18] <chachin> why cant i see my stats
[22:18] <xbj9000> as someone said, the alternate CD may work better, otherwise you may want to go with a smaller Linux distro
[22:19] <chachin> (:
[22:19] <soundray> chachin: because that's not what ubottu is for
[22:19] <chachin> oh ok
[22:19] <jpw27_> I'm only downloading at 1.4 KB/sec, but my connection is capable of 160+.  is there any way to reset my internet connection, or do something to fix it?
[22:19] <Wolfkin> I might.. i don't really know. I only tried it once so I'll give it the old college try before I come back with more quesitosn
[22:19] <Wolfkin> I might --> I might have low ram
[22:19] <jamzore> which one should i do, automatic partitioning or manual partitioning?
[22:20] <xbj9000> wolfkin you don't know how much ram you have?
[22:20] <apophis> jpw27_,  have you tried to download from different server? sounds like its the server which delivers slow
[22:20] <magic_ninja> jpw27_, sudo ifdown eth0 (try eth1 or eth2 if that doesn't work) then when that goes through sudo ifup eth0
[22:20] <soundray> jamzore: your choice. Make sure you understand what you do from those help pages before you go ahead.
[22:20] <jamzore> I do.
[22:20] <jamzore> BUt just wondering if ive never done this before
[22:20] <jamzore> and i dont have anything too important on my pc
[22:20] <jamzore> :p
[22:20] <jamzore> if i fuck it up
[22:20] <Wolfkin> nope.. it's a computer my sister got form her job.. they were tossing a TON of them said she could have it.
[22:20] <soundray> jamzore: use professional language in here
[22:20] <xbj9000> jamzore, there is nothing important on the hard drives?
[22:21] <jamzore> nop
[22:21] <ronnie> i am using a LCD with 1680*1050 real resolution and why ubuntu cant let me running with such resolution?
[22:21] <Wolfkin> the computer I'm using right now is mine.. this is just a 'spare' i've acquired trying to work with. see what use it is.
[22:21] <chachin> .rr
[22:21] <xbj9000> wolfkin is there a Windows OS on it right now?  you could use it to find out how much ram is available etc.
[22:21] <chachin> nothing happens lol
[22:21] <soundray> !lol | chachin
[22:21] <Wolfkin> there is a windows OS but i don't knoow the corporate password they had.
[22:21] <xbj9000> jamzore if there is nothing on the hard drive then don't worry too much about it   :p
[22:22] <chachin> lol
[22:22] <jamzore> :>
[22:22] <aixenv> i got my live rock for my saltwater tank yay!
[22:22] <chachin> thats lol
[22:22] <ronnie> lol omg
[22:22] <xbj9000> wolfkin can you look at the BIOS when the computer begins to boot?
[22:22] <aixenv> afternoon gang
[22:22] <chachin> omg lol
[22:22] <Wolfkin> sure that i can do
[22:22] <soundray> ronnie: try configuring your monitor with gksudo displayconfig-gtk
[22:22] <jpw27_> apophis: it could be the server, my connection goes up and down from 2 to 80 and all in between.
[22:22] <chachin> soundry was up
[22:22] <Wolfkin> that id idn't thikn of before.. aside from changing the boot order
[22:22] <xbj9000> wolfkin I would look in the BIOS for info on ram and cpu speed, then make a choice of OS based on that
[22:22] <chachin> ronnie aklfsdfjs;kfja
[22:22] <bluefoxx> whats the ati driver package?
[22:23] <chachin> lol
[22:23] <soundray> chachin: this is a support channel. Please stop spamming
[22:23] <ronnie> soundray: all right, i will try it
[22:23] <chachin> !lol
[22:23] <chachin> lool
[22:23] <apophis> jpw27_, I am quite sure its the server, try a fast server as a test
[22:23] <rgsteele||home> Hey folks.  Anybody know why changes made in the network manager disappear after reboot?  I set the DNS server in the network manager, but when I reboot, it defaults to <IP_ADDRESS> again.
[22:23] <soundray> !ops | chachin spamming
[22:23] <jpw27_> apophis: ok
[22:23] <chachin> so whats that
[22:23] <soundray> Thanks Mez
[22:24] <nouvo> lol
[22:24] <nouvo> ubuntu
[22:24] <soundray> chachin: do you have any more support questions?
[22:24] <xbj9000> jamzore the ubuntu partitioner in install will automate the partitioning if you want it too, but in my opinion it isn't the best partition scheme
[22:24] <chachin> nope
[22:24] <MrWizeGuy1983> i have one
[22:24] <amenado> rgsteele||home-> are you using dhcp? look in your dhclient.conf for the settings
[22:24] <chachin> ill be silent
[22:24] <Dee> hello ubunuts? can anyone help me or not?
[22:24] <soundray> chachin: you might want to join #ubuntu-offtopic for chatting
[22:25] <MrWizeGuy1983> help with what Dee ?
[22:25] <nouvo> i take a chair
[22:25] <chachin> oh ok

[22:25] <apophis> :) happend to me yesterday
[22:25] <jpw27_> apophis: looks good on a different server.  magic_ninja, ifdown failed with interface not configured, for eth0-2
[22:25] <chachin> hey this is the biggest server i ever seen
[22:25] <apophis> jpw27_, good :) have fun
[22:25] <Mez> !ot | chachin
[22:26] <chachin> ok wats this
[22:26] <chachin> oh i see
[22:26] <jpw27_> apophis: i feel silly I had to get on a support channel for "try a different server"
[22:26] <apophis> jpw27_, you're welcome :)
[22:26] <Li-Plus> I require help with running the nvidia driver installer. It fails in building kernel module. I have build-essential I'm not sure what is wrong
[22:26] <chachin> so this channel is for ubunto stuff and u people dont like playing around
[22:26] <tripps> does anyone know whether the latest version of ati restricted drivers on hardy support hibernate?
[22:26] <Azzuron> Hello Ubuntu Fans :)
[22:26] <Myrtti> chachin: true
[22:26] <chachin> lol ok
[22:27] <Yooshi> back
[22:27] <rgsteele||home> amenado: I am.  Thanks for the tip - I was able to temporarily work around the issue after viewing this thread: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/network-manager/+bug/91890
[22:27] <chachin> i have a problem with some (xp antivirus)
[22:27] <rgsteele||home> Let's see if it works...
[22:27] <yoshimit> crimsun_: sorry for asking but... any tip ??
[22:27] <Yooshi> I had a severe memory leak a bit ago... how do I setup a swap partition in linux?
[22:27] <chachin> it downloaded it self into my computer
[22:27] <soundray> chachin: try ##windows
[22:27] <Mez> chachin, there is so much stuff that happens in here, that random junk not related to support just makes the channel harder to follow
[22:27] <apophis> chachin, its simple, that channel here is high-traffic its difficult enough to see the real request without spammers like you!
[22:27] <chachin> pj cpp;
[22:28] <chachin> im not spaming
[22:28]  * Yooshi is installing gparted
[22:28] <chachin> im asking for help
[22:28] <Mez> chachin,  this is a support channel for UBUNTU
[22:28] <soundray> chachin: this is Ubuntu help -- not Windows
[22:28] <xbj9000> chachin you are asking a Windows specific question if I understand correctly
[22:28] <chachin> ok ok i get it
[22:28] <Mez> !feedthetroll
[22:28] <rgsteele||home> amenado: Though, I don't see in the manpages anywhere where I can specify search directives.
[22:28] <rgsteele||home> Bummer
[22:28] <Li-Plus> anyone able to help me problem solve my nvidia driver installation problem
[22:28] <antonsky> hi guys
[22:29] <Ahmed_> i will go out now
[22:29] <Yooshi> MrWizeGuy1983: I have 3GB linux swap
[22:29] <Yooshi> MrWizeGuy1983:  well almost
[22:29] <nouvo> did you read "ubu king" from alfred jarry?
[22:29] <antonsky> i am using wmii, when i had gutsy, shortcuts like fn+left worked fine but now with hardy heron they arent working with rhythmbox
[22:29] <almostdvs> what is the command to list the installed kernels?
[22:29] <antonsky> what do i need to start
[22:30] <antonsky> for working shortcuts
[22:30] <bluefoxx> what driver do i need for 01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: ATI Technologies Inc RV350 AP [Radeon 9600]
[22:30] <bluefoxx> 01:00.1 Display controller: ATI Technologies Inc RV350 AP [Radeon 9600] (Secondary)
[22:30] <bluefoxx> ?
[22:30] <amenado> rgsteele||home-> search? is that a directive you are looking for in dhclient.conf? i dont believe it is..
[22:30] <soundray> almostdvs: dpkg -l linux-image*
[22:30] <Yooshi> MrWizeGuy1983:  according to gparted sda1 ext3 90GB sda2 extended 2.89GB and sda5 swap 2.89GB
[22:30] <rgsteele||home> amenado: It's a directive usually placed in the resolv.conf
[22:30] <lars__> Li-Plus: you installed the kernel headers too?
[22:30] <rgsteele||home> e.g., "search domain.tld"
[22:30] <almostdvs> soundray: ok, now the one to remove one of said kernels
[22:30] <bluefoxx> cause i cant find anything ati in the repos
[22:30] <rgsteele||home> But, it seems /etc/resolv.conf gets blown away every reboot.
[22:30] <rgsteele||home> The thread I mentioned above is just a workaround
[22:31] <amenado> rgsteele||home-> but your dhclient request does that, to overwrite your resolv.conf
[22:31] <apophis> bluefoxx, you are running hardy?
[22:31] <aditya1> i want to dual boot with ubuntu 7.10 and windows, currently i only ubuntu is installed, how do i do that ??? last time when i installed xp after ubuntu, ubuntu crashed...what do i do now ???
[22:31] <bluefoxx> apophis: of course
[22:31] <soundray> almostdvs: pardon?
[22:31] <Yooshi> anybody know how to locate processes leaking memory?
[22:31] <amenado> rgsteele||home-> i'd like you to look at my suggestion okay?
[22:31] <xbj9000> bluefoxx, do you not get an icon in your taskbar asking if you want to use the proprietary ati driver?
[22:31] <Yooshi> other than proc manager?
[22:31] <vocx> apophis, you kidding? Now I don't see how anybody can stop Germany!
[22:31] <nouvo> do not open before xmas
[22:31] <bluefoxx> i really hate ati....even to the point that i just got in a fight cause i couldnt find the damn driver[dont ask]
[22:31] <funkyHat> aditya1: it is easier to do if you install Windows first, but it's possible the other way round too
[22:32] <bluefoxx> xbj9000: no, its not there
[22:32] <K^Holtz> My printer just complained that it was out of ink, but i have no way of telling which cartridge is out. I have a Canon IP5000 printer. In windows, a box would come up with printer properties, but i dont have this in Linux. Any way to get those canon windows to display?
[22:32] <apophis> bluefoxx, / System / Admin / Hardware for the closed source drivers
[22:32] <jpw27_> can live CD's install straight to a flash drive?
[22:32] <bluefoxx> apophis: it doesnt show up there
[22:32] <apophis> bluefoxx, oh :/ thats bad
[22:32] <bluefoxx> apophis: xbj9000 or in the repo search...
[22:32] <aditya1> funkyHat: i know about that but i dont want to lose data and installed packages now and only ubuntu is installed
[22:32] <amenado> Yooshi-> btw, how do you know it is leaking ?
[22:32] <almostdvs> soundray: i have an old kernel i want to get rid of, how do i do it from terminal (by the way the first command is not correct)
[22:32] <rgsteele||home> amenado: Ah, I see, it's in the request directive in dhclient.conf
[22:32] <apophis> vocx, I havent said anything about germany today ;) however I am surprised about the russians
[22:33] <funkyHat> aditya1: although you will need to do the partitoning in Linux (i.e. Windows can't resize linux partitions, so if your Ubuntu install is using all of the disc space currently you'll have to change that before installing windows)
[22:33] <bluefoxx> apophis: xbj9000 i know its a radeon 9600 agp 8x
[22:33] <vocx> K^Holtz, that might be some specific windows software. So maybe the "driver" works but every features hasn't been implemented in linux.
[22:33] <soundray> almostdvs: just to clarify: I volunteer to help here, but that doesn't make me your lackey
[22:33] <nouvo> chalk
[22:33] <Yooshi> hmm why is nautilus killing my cpu when I try to do searches?
[22:33] <aditya1> funkyHat: i have two partitions, one is ext3(/) and another is FAT
[22:33] <K^Holtz> vocx: so with my IP5000 i would have no way to determine what c
[22:34] <K^Holtz> vocx: so with my IP5000 i would have no way to determine what cartridge is low?
[22:34] <funkyHat> aditya1: ok, are you planning to install windows on the FAT partition?
[22:34] <apophis> Yooshi, killing your cpu? is it burning? :D
[22:34] <Yooshi> haha no... but its maxing its use
[22:34] <soundray> almostdvs: 'sudo apt-get --purge remove linux-image-2.6.24-16-generic'
[22:34] <funkyHat> aditya1: also, you don't have a swap partition?
[22:34] <vocx> K^Holtz, maybe not. Can't you open the printer and find out, or maybe do a test prints?
[22:34] <Yooshi> ahhh I found our problem
[22:34] <bluefoxx> apophis: so what do i do?
[22:34] <apophis> Yooshi, if its a local search than its ok
[22:34] <Yooshi> nautilus in gksu likes to use up everything there is
[22:34] <almostdvs> naw ur cool.. theres usually just like two guys in here that are really knowledgeable and helpful at a given time
[22:34] <aditya1> funkyHat: i have that too
[22:34] <Yooshi> lmao... really? local
[22:35] <apophis> bluefoxx, sorry, no idea
[22:35] <vocx> apophis, now is the time for Spain to show they can win this stuff.
[22:35] <lenswipe> does anyone know where i can go to get supoort for phpbb mods?
[22:35] <bluefoxx> apophis: damn.
[22:35] <apophis> vocx, spain, italy... wheres the difference
[22:35] <K^Holtz> vocx: the only way to determine is to visually examine the cartridges, but thats not so easy if they are all low
[22:35] <bluefoxx> so im basically screwed ><
[22:35] <lenswipe> NOTE: #phpbb doesnt provide mod support
[22:35] <xbj9000> bluefoxx hang on I'll find the name of the driver
[22:35] <nouvo> ubuntu
[22:35] <K^Holtz> just a little dissapointing im going to have to put windows on a partition just to check my printer
[22:35] <nouvo> u b u n t u
[22:35] <aditya1> in fact four paritions, 1st ext3 /(boot) , 2nd swap , 3rd ext3 (/home) and 4th FAT
[22:35] <bluefoxx> xbj9000: ty
[22:35] <soundray> almostdvs: so use your skills of politeness to show your appreciation
[22:35] <apophis> bluefoxx, no maybe someone else  can help, or search for your grafic card and ubuntu with google
[22:36] <Myrtti> nouvo: do you have an ubuntu support question?
[22:36] <Yooshi> MrWizeGuy1983: I found the problem
[22:36] <whileimhere> I've installed and uninstalled with apt-get a ton of programs. I am sure that there are packages still taking up room on my harddrive. Is there an apt-get command to purge my system of any unneeded deb and config files?
[22:36] <nouvo> i can't install it
[22:36] <Yooshi> now it won't stop
[22:36] <almostdvs> ur awesome thank you
[22:36] <bluefoxx> apophis: tried that first actually...
[22:36] <Yooshi> how can I stop linux from using more resources after I have already killed the process?
[22:36] <daigorobr> whileimhere: use apt-get autoremove
[22:36] <nouvo> "lol"
[22:36] <amenado> whileimhere-> hard disk are cheap..get another new one
[22:36] <lenswipe> almostdvs: i know i am :) thanks for saying so...
[22:36] <whileimhere> thanks
[22:36] <AquaFox> I have a reeeally wide wallpaper. I want it to stretch to my 4 desktops (if I ctrl+alt+right I see more of it). How to do that?
[22:37] <rgsteele||home> amenado: Thanks for the tip.  Adjusting the dhclient.conf to supersede the domain name and prepend the necessary DNS server seems to have fixed my issue.
[22:37] <daigorobr> whileimhere: and install and run deborphan. you should then be okay.
[22:37] <whileimhere> thank you
[22:37] <nouvo> do not open before xmas
[22:37] <apophis> bluefoxx, lets try something... type aticonfig in a console
[22:37] <nouvo> it's written on the box
[22:37] <soundray> whileimhere: 'sudo apt-get autoremove' cleans out orphaned packages. Consider also 'apt-get autoclean'
[22:37] <vocx> K^Holtz, I hope you are saying that as a joke and lot like a flaim bait.
[22:37] <funkyHat> aditya1: ok cool :) so you're planning to install windows on the FAT partition that you already have... that's cool, what you need to do is do that, and then using the ubuntu install CD rebuild GRUB (The boot selector)
[22:37] <amenado> rgsteele||home-> am glad it worked out
[22:37] <soundray> whileimhere: man apt-get makes for good reading
[22:37] <funkyHat> aditya1: don't worry it's not very difficult :)
[22:37] <bluefoxx> apophis: bluefoxx@azUre-prIDE:~$ aticonfig
[22:37] <nouvo> boom
[22:37] <bluefoxx> The program 'aticonfig' is currently not installed.  You can install it by typing:
[22:37] <bluefoxx> sudo apt-get install xorg-driver-fglrx
[22:37] <bluefoxx> bash: aticonfig: command not found
[22:37] <bluefoxx> bluefoxx@azUre-prIDE:~$
[22:37] <FloodBot2> bluefoxx: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[22:37] <bluefoxx> oop
[22:37] <nouvo> haha
[22:38] <apophis> bluefoxx, do that :)
[22:38] <bluefoxx> kk
[22:38] <Yooshi> great, no helpp I'll brb to reboot once again
[22:38] <Yooshi> 64bit was better
[22:38] <KyleK> bluefoxx: interesting computer name ;)
[22:38] <nouvo> reboot
[22:38] <nouvo> r e b o o t
[22:38] <vocx> K^Holtz, beside I don't know if printers "actually" can measure ink levels. Maybe they really can't, they just estimate how many times you've printed something and give you information based on that. After all they only want you to buy more cartridges.
[22:38] <Elijah> how do i reset my network settings to default
[22:38] <aditya1> funkyHat: ok got hang of it...now i should install xp, and then again install grub loader from ubuntu cd right ?
[22:38] <zyx386> !ڤعرئس
[22:39] <zyx386> !virus
[22:39] <bluefoxx> KyleK: thanks. see the hardware related reference in it?
