[00:00] <Jack_Sparrow> broken__: I will be here
[00:00] <Jordan_U> Rufus_, I think that 0.6.0 is the latest stable release, which is basically what Ubuntu 7.10 ( Gutsy ) has by default
[00:00] <unop__> Tiikeri^, what is 6715s?
[00:00] <Rufus_> Jordan_U, they added some plugins and features recently
[00:00] <Stepdir> unop__ I checked that too. I said no to ext2.
[00:00] <Jordan_U> Rufus_, Stable plugins?
[00:01] <excitatory> travisat: wow, ok, thank you :D
[00:01] <Rufus_> Jordan_U, no idea
[00:01] <unop__> Stepdir, ahh, errm, IIRC ext3 is just ext2 with journalling included -- that explains why
[00:02] <Stepdir> unop__ funny because it identify's it as ext2 first line at boot. :-/
[00:02] <Tiikeri^> unop__ my laptop.... Compaq 6715 with 32 bit Sempron
[00:02] <Dr_willis> ext3 can be mounted as ext2 :) backwards compatiability
[00:02] <Jordan_U> Rufus_, If they aren't stable they won't be included in the official Ubuntu repositories, you will likely need to add other repositories to get those features
[00:02] <WeedGrinch> Anyone know how to register a channel on freenode?
[00:03] <broken__> Jack_Sparrow, yea didn't fix anything. I tried reinstalling VLC as well.. but nothing :/
[00:03] <PriceChild> WeedGrinch, /msg chanserv help
[00:03] <unop__> Stepdir, i'm not sure why that is - but i would include both ext2 and ext3 support into the kernel
[00:03] <WeedGrinch> ty
[00:03] <Starnestommy> WeedGrinch: /msg chanserv help register, but you may want to look over http://freenode.net/ploicy.shtml first
[00:03] <Jack_Sparrow> broken__: I have a couple pages of notes....  which card #
[00:03] <giggles> unop_ thx: I did not realise it was called Nautilus :P  Anyway, I went to Places, then Computer but I do not see the sda partition (which is called SW_Preload).  Do I need to reboot or anything like that?
[00:03] <broken__> Jack_Sparrow, ATI X1950Pro
[00:03] <Stepdir> unop__ I think I will try that. Thanks for the help.
[00:03] <PriceChild> !away > vix|away
[00:04] <unop__> Tiikeri^, ahh, thats odd -- installing a 64bit OS on a 32bit machine - doesnt make sense, i'd think it was rubbish - but there may be a good reason for doing so
[00:04] <broken__> Jack_Sparrow, Xserver can't configure it by default whenever I do dpk-reconfigure xserver-xorg, it says it cannot detect video hardware.
[00:04] <unop__> giggles, you could try a reboot yes - might be a good idea anyway
[00:04] <Tiikeri^> i thought it too but then saw one installation guide that said so at very first line...
[00:04] <ulaf> is it possible for gparted to skip the 4kb of bad sectors when resizing?
[00:05] <Jack_Sparrow> broken__: May I assume you have already done this..  sudo apt-get install linux-restricted-modules-generic restricted-manager
[00:05] <Tiikeri^> but ill test it soon anyway so... ill let you know did it work :D
[00:05] <giggles> ok, let me try.  Thank you for all your help.  If I am not back here in 20 mins, I'll be in the corner sulking with a wet towel wrapped around my head.
[00:05] <broken__> Jack_Sparrow, I did, yes.
[00:05] <Jack_Sparrow> broken__: IS your xorg posted
[00:05] <unop__> giggles, you'll be ok as long as your cross your fingers and touch wood :)
[00:05] <broken__> Jack_Sparrow, like pastebin?
[00:06] <dn4> is fdisk -l suppost to show the cdrom?
[00:06] <unop__> dn4, no
[00:06] <BioniX> Will Hardy Heron's Nautilus have TABS???????????
[00:06] <Jack_Sparrow> broken__: yes, pastebin.. and did you install fglrx ?
[00:06] <broken__> I did install fglrx
[00:06] <BioniX> a MUST
[00:06] <broken__> Let me get a pastebin.
[00:06] <unop__> dn4, fdisk only lists "fixed disks" - and a CD-Rom drive does not fall into this category
[00:06] <broken__> Jack_Sparrow, I mean it was all working before until I decided to get rid of XGL
[00:06] <Jordan_U> !hardy | BioniX
[00:06] <ubotu> BioniX: Hardy Heron is the code name for the next release of Ubuntu (8.04-LTS), due April 2008 - For more info, see: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardyHeron - CONSIDER IT TO BE PRE BETA (ALPHA) SOFTWARE - Discussion and support in #ubuntu+1, NOT #ubuntu
[00:07] <dxdt> BioniX: it kinda already has tabs, in a way...  They just don't look like tabs, but they function like them I think.  I don't know
[00:07] <dn4> Unicron, thanks
[00:07] <dn4> unop__, thanks
[00:07] <BioniX> aha?
[00:07] <BioniX> screenshots?
[00:07] <qwstar> how do I get tracker to work? tracker-stats says i have 119,249 files indexed, but nothing comes up when i search using tracker-search or the gui tool.
[00:07] <NW2190> hey, my Places > Network > Windows Network folder doesn't show my Windows Workgroups any more. Does anyone have any clue how to fix that?
[00:07] <fantum13> Why does update manager want to remove my apt-build installed packages when according to apt-cache policy, apt-build has the same priority as the standard repos?
[00:08] <Jack_Sparrow> broken__: What does fglrxinfo  show
[00:08] <crimsun> fantum13: because they're not whitelisted.
[00:08] <panfist> how do i see what im currently using as a swap partition
[00:08] <broken__> Jack_Sparrow, http://pb.udderweb.com/144 for xorg
[00:08] <Jack_Sparrow> broken__: ok..
[00:08] <crimsun> fantum13: you probably want to file a wishlist bug against update-manager
[00:08] <broken__> Jack_Sparrow, I"ll get a paste of fglrxinfo as well
[00:09] <fantum13> crimsun: Do you know where I could get more information about this system?
[00:09] <Jack_Sparrow> broken__: just look to see if it says mesa
[00:09] <less-random> panfist: swapon -s
[00:09] <broken__> Jack_Sparrow, just says opengl
[00:09] <crimsun> fantum13: see the update-manager documentation & source
[00:09] <fantum13> crimsun: thanks
[00:10] <neilwardle2002> anyone had any problems with updating ubuntu  7.4 64bit to 7.10 64bit and not been able to use wireless?
[00:11] <toc2rta> How do i get firefox to work with my java ?
[00:11] <stdin> toc2rta: install the plugin, eg: sun-java6-plugin
[00:12] <Jack_Sparrow> broken__: http://pb.udderweb.com/145          I made a minor edit   make a backup of your xorg first
[00:12] <panfist> less-random so apparently i dont have  a swap file right now?
[00:12] <broken__> Jack_Sparrow, ok.
[00:12] <toc2rta> stdin be more specific
[00:12] <ronny1> is there any increase in performance when using ubuntu 64 bit over ubuntu 32 bit ?
[00:13] <toc2rta> how did you got java working with ur ffx ?
[00:13] <stdin> toc2rta: by installing that package
[00:13] <panfist> ronny1 there definitely is if youre planning on using more than 4 gigs of ram...unless youre doing that its not recommended
[00:13] <joanki> can anyone tell me how to get the latest version of adobe flash player?
[00:13] <Jack_Sparrow> broken__: OpenGL vendor string: ATI Technologies Inc.   as long as it does not say mesa instead of ati
[00:13] <unop__> ronny1, sure, you might not experience it but internally yes, the 64bit OS harnesses the full potential of the hardware
[00:13] <osmosis_> how do I change my default crontab editor ?
[00:13] <neilwardle2002> ronny1 depends on your processor :)
[00:13] <Mad972> Hi there, I got a problem with the hotkey of my aus laptop, it's not detected never were.
[00:14] <travisat> ronny1: I find the biggest increase is in the amount of ram I can use
[00:14] <broken__> Jack_Sparrow, it says ATI but.. i'll try this new xorg.
[00:14] <unop__> osmosis, EDITOR=nano  crontab -e   ??
[00:14] <broken__> Jack_Sparrow, should I sreboot?
[00:14] <travisat> ronny1: I have more ram then I know what to do with know :)
[00:14] <joanki> can anyone tell me how to get the latest version of adobe flash?? please thx
[00:14] <sqush> need help with partitioning current drive to make ready for ubuntu install. two partitions on a drive, one with windows. please.
[00:15] <travisat> sqush: what is the problem
[00:15] <neilwardle2002> does anyone have any idea how to make a wireless card work as I did an update on 7.04 to 7.10 and cant turn the pci card on
[00:15] <Jack_Sparrow> broken__: Sure, I am going over my notes as we do this..
[00:15] <WeedGrinch> When I type /msg chanserv register #Ubuntu-Modding
[00:15] <WeedGrinch> it says
[00:15] <WeedGrinch> (07:15:28 PM) ChanServ: (notice) Channel [#Ubuntu-Modding] does not exist
[00:15] <neilwardle2002> even with iwconfig
[00:15] <giggles> unop_I'm back.  The reboot worked in that the partition now appears in Nautilus.  Problem now is that I can't find my data - there are file icons on the screen that disappear when I click on them.  How can I check that I have not lost the data?
[00:15] <WeedGrinch> So how do i reg it, "it does not exist"
[00:16] <fantum13> crimsun: How can I allow myself to locally install packages that also exist on the repositories without update-manager disliking it?
[00:16] <sqush> travisat: i have drive: C:\ and E:\ i want to re-partition C:\ to dual-boot winXP and ubuntu. i a little lost as to how to do so
[00:16] <sqush> am*
[00:16] <crimsun> fantum13: don't know, sorry.
[00:16] <dhanar_10> toc2rta: i use java bin package from java.sun.com
[00:16] <broken__> Jack_Sparrow, alright, thanks, I"ll brb.
[00:16] <neilwardle2002> which drive is primary drive
[00:16] <fantum13> crimsun: thanks anyways
[00:17] <Mad972> travisat: hi man, could you help me get the hotkeys of my laptop detected or at least point me toward someone who could please?
[00:17] <Jack_Sparrow> fantum13: What is the difference between what you are installing and the repos
[00:17] <amenado> !xglinfo  > amenado
[00:17] <unop__> giggles, errm, what i would do is - copy all the stuff from that partition over onto another parition first
[00:17] <toc2rta> i can't use sun i have a ppc, dhanar_10
[00:17] <neilwardle2002> repos is a repository not active
[00:17] <travisat> Mad972: no idea I use a ibm model m, it has no extra keys
[00:17] <travisat> sqush: well are you trying to replace one of the drives with ubuntu, or resize one for ubuntu?
[00:18] <sqush> travisat: sorry, resize C:\
[00:18] <danielski_pl> need some help again, every time i start my computer ubuntu starts in "low graphics mode" i have to set my card and restart, this is Sh****g me
[00:18] <Mad972> know who could help me? been on the channel with my questions unanswered a long time :s
[00:18] <fantum13> Jack_Sparrow: Absolutely nothing. I used apt-build on a few things, and then afterwards, update-manager wanted to override them. Its happened before on things I've installed with dpkg manually (in that case it was Piding with SILC support).
[00:18] <Indiadev_Techie> sqush : can u explain ur question....
[00:18] <fantum13> Jack_Sparrow: The versions are the same, if it means anything.
[00:18] <neilwardle2002> get envy
[00:19] <neilwardle2002> envy seems to install latest graphics drivers so usually fixes most graphics problems
[00:19] <Indiadev_Techie> sqush: did u use the alternate cd....
[00:19] <Jack_Sparrow> neilwardle2002: BAd idea
[00:19] <Jack_Sparrow> !envy
[00:19] <ubotu> envy is not needed or supported.   It's telling me I have 80GB free space in that partition - and it was almost full before I had the Vista blue screen.  Anyway, I have to sign off now and will check back tomorrow
[00:20] <travisat> sqush: ok on the live cd have you started the install yet?
[00:20] <neilwardle2002> it still gets the latest drivers from the manufact websites
[00:20] <sqush> travisat: yep, im on the "prepare partions" window, i dont wanna harm C:\ or E:\
[00:20] <unop_> giggles, hope you havent lost the stuff -- good luck
[00:20] <puff> I upgraded to gutsy, now emacs won't start in GUI mode, it gives me this error:  No fonts match `-bitstream-bitstream vera sans mono-medium-r-*-*-*-120-*-*-*-*-*-*'
[00:20] <jrcdude> Hey, what is recommended for a LAMP server, 32 bit or 64 bit?
[00:20] <travisat> sqush: ok I don't remember the options off hand what are they, you don't have to spell them all the way out
[00:21] <unop_> jrcdude, it depends on your processor
[00:21] <jrcdude> Sempron 3000+
[00:21] <WeedGrinch> Yay! My channel is up! Feel free to join me at #Ubuntu-Modding
[00:21] <Indiadev_Techie> sqush: ok... so whats ur problem.....
[00:22] <sqush> travisat: edit part, delete part, under changes and it has my /dev/sda with /dev/sda1 (C:\) and /dev/sda5 (E:\)

[00:25] <Jack_Sparrow> lordrohith:  does apt-get install wine  ring any bells
[00:25] <lordrohith> Yeah, that's what I used
[00:25] <lordrohith> except with an addition
[00:25] <lordrohith> sudo apt-get install wine msttcorefonts

[00:26] <Jack_Sparrow> joanki: you can install flash
[00:26] <abitlater> joanki you can install flash
[00:26] <unop_> joanki, sure you can have flash - at the moment, installing flash is not possible from the repos and must be done manually
[00:26] <Jack_Sparrow> Tallen: Ask in Linuxmint
[00:26] <abitlater> joanki search google for medibuntu
[00:27] <sqush> Indiadev_Techie: well i have c: and e: on same disk...i wanna resize C: and not harm contents of rest of disk

[00:27] <lordrohith> oh ok
[00:27] <Tallen> join #linuxmint
[00:28] <Indiadev_Techie> sqush: u can use gpart (gnome partition manager) for that...

[00:29] <speedcore> anyone who can tell me a simple command to kill an ssh tunnel?
[00:29] <fantum13> speedcore: killall ssh
[00:29] <unop_> fantum13, that kills them all - perhaps he wants to kill just a particular one?
[00:30] <speedcore> anyway to see a particular tunnel and kill just that session
[00:30] <Jack_Sparrow> lordrohith: go to system.... admin... synaptic  and search for wine and try installing there
[00:30] <unop_> speedcore, use the gnome tunnel manager (i think that's what it is called)
[00:30] <speedcore> cool
[00:30] <speedcore> works for feisty too?
[00:30] <speedcore> servers got feisty...
[00:30] <lordrohith> Alright, will do
[00:30] <sqush> Indiadev_Techie: haha, cool...thanks a bunch! (again.)

[00:37] <dm_edge> after installing nvidia drivers kdm got stuck, so I returened it to the "nv" driver, but after logging in again to kdm there's no connection to the internet anymore
[00:37] <Biohazard> hi
[00:38] <n3rdglass> ty again crdlb
[00:38] <dm_edge> it's set to dhcp but it doesn't receive an address anymore, but it used to work just fine
[00:38] <toc2rta> how do i get video codecs for ubuntu ?
[00:38] <Indiadev_Techie> sqush : or u can use partition logic....
[00:38] <sqush> Indiadev_Techie: okay ty
[00:38] <Jack_Sparrow> !restricted > toc2rta
[00:38] <webmaren> have you tried manually configuring the address
[00:39] <lordrohith> Jack_Sparrow do you think installing any programs could've changed something?
[00:39] <sqush> Indiadev_Techie: looks like live cd only has gparted
[00:39] <dm_edge> yeah, I copied what I saw on my other pc which has windows but no luck
[00:39] <dm_edge> I tried to set the same gateway address
[00:39] <Jack_Sparrow> lordrohith: If you used a script like automatix or envy, yes, it can mess things up...
[00:39] <speedcore> what is the gnome filemanager called...   I like to be able to move all kinds of files gui wise..    sudo nautilus?
[00:39] <Starnestommy> speedcore: gksudo nautilus?
[00:39] <lordrohith> The only program I installed today was Amarok
[00:40] <Indiadev_Techie> sqush: yes... did u try the drive resizing.....with gparted....
[00:40] <speedcore> is it called nautilus?
[00:40] <dm_edge> but anyways dhclient broadcasts to all addresses right? so it supposed to find the modem
[00:40] <Starnestommy> speedcore: yes
[00:40] <tecywiz121> I have two buttons on my keyboard that don't do anything, and don't generate events in 'xev', I was wondering if it is possible to activate them?
[00:40] <sqush> Indiadev_Techie: still scannin :\
[00:40] <webmaren> can you screenshot the wireless config panel
[00:40] <Jack_Sparrow> lordrohith: It you installed things on your own.. you can mess things up...  All you have installed is amarok?  what else...
[00:40] <speedcore> thanx
[00:40] <dm_edge> it's not wireless it's wired
[00:40] <broken__> Anyone know of a good video recorder using your webcam? That has audio as well?
[00:40] <dm_edge> admtek card
[00:41] <webmaren> oh sorry i meant the network panel
[00:41] <Jack_Sparrow> broken__: where are you at with the problem
[00:41] <tecywiz121> broken__, ffmpeg ;)
[00:41] <dm_edge> I could, but it's all in Japanese, is it still fine by you?:)
[00:41] <amenado> dm_edge, which os are you running? version?
[00:41] <broken__> Jack_Sparrow, didn't solve it so I gave up.
[00:41] <dm_edge> kubuntu 7
[00:42] <dm_edge> not sure is it's 7.04 or 7.10
[00:42] <Indiadev_Techie> sqush: wait i will giv ya a link...
[00:42] <dm_edge> downloaded it a few days ago though
[00:42] <tecywiz121> anyone?
[00:42] <Jack_Sparrow> broken__: Wish I had better answers on those..  sometimes it is just a couple tweaks of xorg...
[00:42] <amenado> dm_edge, on a  terminal   sudo dhclient eth0
[00:42] <sqush> Indiadev_Techie: it JUST finished
[00:42] <amenado> am assuming your nic is eth0
[00:43] <Indiadev_Techie> sqush: what-- resizing ???
[00:43] <lordrohith> Jack_Sparrow , I tried installing this mp4 converter yesterday, perhaps that might've messed things up
[00:43] <sqush> Indiadev_Techie: no, scanning
[00:43] <broken__> tecywiz121, ?
[00:43] <lordrohith> let me look up the instructions for it
[00:43] <broken__> FFMpeg?
[00:43] <dm_edge> it's eth1, and it fails to get a response
[00:43] <Jack_Sparrow> lordrohith: Where did you find it
[00:43] <dm_edge> no dhcp offers
[00:43] <lordrohith> From the ubuntu community documentation page Jack_Sparrow
[00:43] <amenado> dm_edge,  ifconfig -a   and pastebin your result please
[00:44] <sqush> Indiadev_Techie: it wont let itself be resized :\
[00:44] <tecywiz121> broken__: its a command line tool that can record from a webcam, I am sure that there are some decent frontends out there too
[00:44] <Jack_Sparrow> lordrohith: That doesnt tell me much...
[00:44] <foso> is there a way to make transparency settings set by hitting alt and button 4 or 5 stick?
[00:44] <broken__> tecywiz121, ah ok, thanks.

[00:45] <amenado> pedro__, you are connected to freenode now, so it has not gone down, you are connected and chatting with me
[00:46] <Jack_Sparrow> lordrohith: Nothing on that first page should be a problem
[00:46] <broken__> tecywiz121, hmm would you happent o know of any frontends? I can't seem to finda ny.

[00:54] <hhp2k> Hello everyone! I've got an old Toshiba Thinkpad that I've been wanting to install Ubuntu on, but whenever I try, it loads the ubuntu installation screen.. and when I pick install Ubuntu (or Install Ubuntu in Safe Graphics Mode) it'll start getting busy for a while, display the loading bar, and then display a lot of background text.. and then eventually stop, and not do anything. Why is this happening?
[00:54] <dxdt> speedcore: both if I understand you properly.  Both have to do encryption using each other's keys

[01:12] <lycoris> server spanish ubuntu ?
[01:12] <nemilar> babo: you burned the disk as a data disk.  you are supposed to burn a disk image from the ISO file
[01:12] <Shuggle> does anyone know a good program for extracting multipart rars?
[01:12] <nemilar> !es | lycoris
[01:12] <ubotu> lycoris: Si busca ayuda en español por favor entre en los canales #ubuntu-es o #kubuntu-es, allí obtendrá más ayuda.
[01:13] <babo> nemilar: how ? I can access the setup.exe file on the burnt disk ...
[01:13] <nemilar> babo: you're going to have to burn another disk
[01:13] <lycoris> thanks ^^
[01:13] <babo> nemilar, if I'd burnt it wrong then i would just see an .iso image on the disk ...
[01:13] <nemilar> babo: I thought that's what you said
[01:13] <babo> nemilar, i can see the setup.exe file inside on the disk, which would suggest that it's burnt correctly no ?
[01:14] <nemilar> babo: yeah I suppose
[01:14] <nemilar> you burnt a disk from an image, right?
[01:14] <nemilar> not just a data disk, copying the ISO over?
[01:14] <Shuggle> nevermind, i got it
[01:14] <putnum> hi does ubuntu have the same auto install feature like gentoo has? I think they call it portage?
[01:15] <nemilar> putnum: yeah, Ubuntu uses APT
[01:15] <nemilar> !apt
[01:15] <ubotu> APT is the Advanced Package Tool, which together with dpkg forms the basic Ubuntu package management toolkit. Short apt-get manual: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AptGetHowto - Also see !Synaptic (Gnome) or !Adept (KDE)
[01:15] <putnum> ahh ok
[01:15] <putnum> it cheaks for dependiances?
[01:15] <ulaf> hey guys, i just ran ntfsresize -s 21G -v /dev/sda1  , i was trying to resize an ntfs partition of 40gigs, and only 19G used.. i was trying to resize it to 21G.. but even though it looks like it resized it, i don't see unallocated space
[01:15] <Starnestommy> putnum: yes
[01:15] <nemilar> putnum: there are graphical add/remove programs, or you can use the command line (Basic format is "apt-get install packagename")
[01:15] <putnum> ok awsome
[01:15] <ulaf> i see only one partition
[01:16] <babo> nemilar, from an iso I took from a torrent ...
[01:16] <babo> that other people seem to think works ...
[01:16] <putnum> does the lastest version of kubuntu come with kde 4.0?
[01:16] <ulaf> i look at the size of my c drive, and it's capacity is 21G's, just like it supposed to be, but i don't see unallocated space when i use disk management
[01:16] <putnum> the dvd image i mean
[01:16] <Starnestommy> putnum: it still has 3.5
[01:16] <putnum> ok
[01:16] <nemilar> babo: what's the iso of?
[01:16] <Moptop650> Hey, im installing xubuntu on my other PC, and its asking me to put in disk labled "Xubuntu 7.10 _Gutsy Gibbon _ - Release i386 (10071016)", what disk is that?
[01:16] <babo> nemilar, vista
[01:16] <putnum> how would i install it?
[01:16] <ulaf> anyone use ntfsresize?
[01:17] <nemilar> babo: you're talking about pirating, which is illegal ;)
[01:17] <nemilar> ulaf: does gparted see the unalocated space?
[01:17] <dm_edge> amenado: is there anything else I could try out?
[01:17] <nemilar> babo: go to the store and buy a copy, it'll definitely work fine
[01:17] <ulaf> nemilar: no, it says the capacity of the partition is like 36gigs, and 1.2 allocated space
[01:18] <ulaf> nemilar: not allocated space, i mean free space
[01:18] <nemilar> h/o I'll brb
[01:18] <ulaf> nemilar: there are no free allocatd space, ok
[01:18] <nemilar> craiglist dude is here with my RAM

[01:19] <danielski_pl> how do i stop ubuntu from starting in low graphics mode??
[01:19] <Sambie> Babo, Microsoft owes us all :)
[01:19] <scguy318> !brokenflash | orangefly
[01:19] <ubotu> orangefly: The Flash plugin installation is currently broken. This is due to Adobe changing the tar file that the package downloads. Fixes have landed in -proposed for testing, but most most users are advised to wait until packages are approved and released in -updates.
[01:19] <arooni-mobile> why do i have to re-enable better gmail 2 every time i want to use it?   (firefox extension)
[01:20] <babo> Sambie: yeah. It'll never be able to repay me for IE6. Not even Bill has enough money for that ...
[01:20] <dhanar_10> danielski_pl: it's ok. besides mkv is relatively new, right? i just have to be patient... i still have a lot if time...
[01:20] <th3count> problem im having is in sound options, when audio is set to anything besides USBAUDIO no sound works, however when set to USB audio movies and audio play fine but anything through the OS or firefox has no sound.
[01:20] <babo> so what could be wrong with the iso then ?
[01:21] <babo> it's burnt properly but the program just tells me it's not bootable ...
[01:21] <babo> I'm all out of suggestions ...
[01:21] <Sambie> Babo, IWhat exactly happen and what happen to IE6? sorry I just came on my puter not that long ago so I wasn't able to get your story, if you even told one.
[01:21] <Moptop650> Hey, im installing xubuntu on my other PC, and its asking me to put in disk labled "Xubuntu 7.10 _Gutsy Gibbon _ - Release i386 (10071016)", what disk is that? I don't have any other disks >.>, Nor will it let me open the cd drive?
[01:21] <babo> Sambie, problem with burning an iso ( which shall remain nameless ).
[01:21] <babo> Sambie, I'm a web developer ...
[01:22] <lilg111111> no sound in gusty
[01:22] <danielski_pl> dhanar_10: its the first time ive heard of .mkv after downloading that LOST ep
[01:22] <Odd-rationale> Moptop650: That is the disk you use to install xubuntu
[01:22] <Moptop650> But its currently in the drive
[01:22] <dm_edge> amenado: are you still there?
[01:22] <Moptop650> If i just press enter for continue, it stalls at "Select and install software please wait (2%)" then goes back to the insert disk.
[01:23] <LibertyShadow> Has anyone else had trouble with the 169.* Nvidia drivers with Xserver freezes
[01:23] <Odd-rationale> Moptop650: Alternatively, you can comment out the cd from you sources.list file and download the packages from the net
[01:23] <smallfoot-> i have tried alpha4
[01:23] <Moptop650> So.. Do I have to abort the current installation thats going?
[01:23] <smallfoot-> and i can tell you all mens in this channels, that ubuntu 8.40 will be ROX BEST LINUX EVER!!
[01:23] <Sambie> Bobo, Maybe the ISO image that you've downloaded became corrupted?
[01:24] <dhanar_10> danielski_pl: yeah, it is really new and its advantages is it can store any video and audio format + subtitle. i heard that ibm has bought it. um... i think it's getting off topic...
[01:24] <Odd-rationale> Moptop650: Yes, you would have to.
[01:24] <Moptop650> >.>
[01:24] <hhp2k> <.<
[01:24] <Moptop650> So.. would i have to start another install from scratch/
[01:25] <Odd-rationale> Moptop650: What are you trying to install? xubuntu?
[01:25] <Moptop650> yeah
[01:25] <smallfoot-> ubuntu 8.40 hardy heron, will be the best linux ever in the world, its best, i tried it in alpha4, and it has bittorrent ,and cd burning and will have firefox3
[01:25] <Odd-rationale> Moptop650: And the machine you're installing xubuntu on is asking for the cd?
[01:25] <dm_edge> could anybody else help me solve my problem? I'm using admtek card (not wireless) and I can't get IP by DHCP, eventhough I got it once after intalling kubuntu
[01:25] <scguy318> I can't say it's the best, else there would be no need for more Ubuntu versions :P
[01:25] <dhanar_10> smallfoot-: firefox3 beta or final?
[01:25] <Moptop650> Yes
[01:25] <bruenig> !ot | smallfoot- stop being obnoxious
[01:25] <ubotu> smallfoot- stop being obnoxious: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome!
[01:25] <smallfoot-> dhanar_10, it has beta2, but it will have final in 8.40 final release
[01:25] <Moptop650> Its asking for whats already in the drive
[01:26] <ptn107> is anyone else having trouble accessing  packages.ubuntu.com  ??
[01:26] <dhanar_10> smallfoot-: i think it is 8.04....
[01:26] <smallfoot-> whats obnioxous?
[01:26] <Sambie> Yanno nothing is more boring then to talk OS talk to someone who is completely ignorant with the subject. A friend of mine is a Windows lover and thinks that Linux is unstable, I couldn't help but to laugh deep inside.
[01:26] <bruenig> you
[01:26] <smallfoot-> dhanar_10, oh you're right maybe¨
[01:26] <dm_edge> I've pasted ifconfig and /etc/network/interfaces
[01:26] <Odd-rationale> Moptop650: Hmm. that is strange.
[01:26] <smallfoot-> yes, it is 8.04 now i know this
[01:27] <Moptop650> I know >.>
[01:27] <abadtooth> How is 8.04 Alpha4 coming along?
[01:27] <Moptop650> its an OLD comp, 1998 bios.
[01:27] <smallfoot-> when will the countdown for 8.04 start?
[01:27] <Moptop650> Could that be a issue?
[01:27] <smallfoot-> abadtooth, its great
[01:27] <Odd-rationale> Moptop650: What step is the installation on?
[01:27] <abadtooth> smallfoot-: I've tried alpha3 and didn't notice much of anything new..
[01:27] <smallfoot-> abadtooth, it has kernel 2.6.24, it has new audio things called PulseAudio, and it has Transmission bittorrent, and Brasio CD burning
[01:27] <Moptop650> "Select and install software please wait (2%)"
[01:28] <smallfoot-> abadtooth, alpha3 sucks, its very buggy
[01:28] <abadtooth> Yeah, so I read.
[01:28] <Moptop650> Doing the text installion from the alternative CD
[01:28] <Odd-rationale> Moptop650: Maybe you should just wait... -_-
[01:28] <kapace> hello, i have just booted liveCd in a new computer, and it won't log in

[01:28] <FYI> hello, is there anyway to get past the forced disk check every 25 mounts (it's freezing at a given % for me)

[01:30] <bruenig> or just a one time thing
[01:30] <Moptop650> Yeah it definately doesnt
[01:30] <Moptop650> Then again it could be hidden, the faceplate is missing
[01:30] <Odd-rationale> Moptop650: Looks like your quite stuch then
[01:30] <FYI> bruenig: just a one time thing, I really need access to this computer, but it freezes on the disk check... I was wondering if there was aboot option or something

[01:37] <bruenig> FYI, boot into recovery mode
[01:37] <Jack_Sparrow> FYI: If it errors on the file check.. you should not be installing it
[01:37] <mnemonica> smallfoot-: ... I don't understand what mejbi is.
[01:37] <BaKKaR> hallo, why do i can't browse the php files from my local server ... it loads as a file and my firefox asks me to save it or open it with other application .. the *.php files don' et arsed, why?

[01:37] <LibertyShadow> mnemonica: http://support.dell.com/support/downloads/index.aspx?c=us&l=en&s=gen
[01:37] <Odd-rationale> dm_edge: OK I use kubuntu, too! Here's something that helped me with my wireless. I went to /etc/network (wiht dolphin as root) and moved all the contents of the folder to the recycle bin (so I could put it back if it didn't work. Reboot.
[01:37] <Jack_Sparrow> mnemonica: Which Dell is that?  I have a few here
[01:37] <mnemonica> overclucker: Yes. I had to go afk for a while.

[01:38] <dm_edge> Odd-rationale: I'm using a wired network, does it still apply?
[01:38] <eshaase_> ok, i guess i'll wait for flash, so later on when this is fixed, i should be able to do this: "sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install flashplugin-nonfree"?
[01:38] <FYI> bruenig: I will try that
[01:38] <BaKKaR> !php BaKKaR
[01:38] <mnemonica> LibertyShadow: Interesting.. I'll try that out and get back to you.

[01:39] <Jack_Sparrow> mnemonica: Sorry had to answer the phone
[01:39] <Dr_willis> !dolphin
[01:39] <ubotu> Dolphin, or more properly D3lphin, is the new default file manager for Kubuntu 7.10 Gutsy Gibbon. If you would like to make Konqueror your default file manager again, go to Konqueror - Settings menu - Configure Konqueror - File Associations and change the association for inode/directory and inode/system_directory to Konqueror at the top rather than Dolphin.
[01:39] <Odd-rationale> dm_edge: IDK. Like I said, I'm not a network expert. you could try. If it doesn't work. just put all the files back and you will be right where you started.

[01:42] <kapace> try using your ip to use your scripts
[01:42] <Tonren> If I install firefox-3.0, will I still be able to run 2.0?  Will 3.0 change my 2.0 install in any way?
[01:42] <BaKKaR> kapace: when i browse the www everythin is OK, but for example torrentflux is not workin when runnin from my localhost
[01:43] <fumanchu> BaKKaR, you should install php
[01:43] <danielski_pl> getting really sick of this problem with my ubuntu, might just leave my computer on till the update of 8.04
[01:43] <kapace> check what localhost maps to
[01:43] <BaKKaR> fumanchu: i have php mysql and apache all installed
[01:43] <kapace> lol after two ubuntu livecd boots, then ubuntu doesn't ask me for a user/apss
[01:43] <fumanchu> BaKKaR, something about php is missing
[01:43] <fumanchu> some apache-php module
[01:43] <kapace> localhost might be mapped to file://
[01:44] <BaKKaR> kapace and fumanchu when i try to load them i am usin the http:// protocol
[01:44] <emma> Odd-rationale,  but do I want it to?
[01:45] <danielski_pl> should i just download 7.10 and reinstall since ubuntu is giving me a hard time atm, it keeps booting in low graphics mode and i cant play 3d games WTF??
[01:45] <fumanchu> BaKKaR,  libapache2-mod-php5
[01:46] <kapace> can i use restricted drivers with liveCD?
[01:46] <Odd-rationale> emma: That is really your choice. NTFS /read/write is quite stable now imo. Just be careful when you name a file. You can put ":" in ubuntu but not in windows.
[01:46] <BaKKaR> fumanchu: will try that now
[01:46] <FYI> bruenig: I tried booting in recovery mode, but it freezes at something like pins, apic etc.... when I try booting with acpi=off it gets stopped at some IRQ stuff
[01:46] <ConstyXIV> can ubuntu do full-disk encryption?
[01:46] <Jack_Sparrow> danielski_pl: Have you edited xorg or gone through the restricted modules routine
[01:46] <emma> Okay I don't think I've ever used : in a file name. I think I might be the only person who still uses _ instead of spaces.
[01:46] <Thurin1> ConstyXIV: If Debian can, Ubuntu can.
[01:46] <fatejudger> Recently, GDM seems to be taking several minutes to load. It's outputting this log: http://pastebin.com/d4a126cf2 Does anyone know how to fix this?
[01:47] <Thurin1> ConstyXIV: You really need to look at the Kernel you are using rather than the 'distro'
[01:47] <Thurin1> ConstyXIV: I believe that the Ubuntu kernel has support for it though.
[01:47] <Dr_willis> I thouhgt the enctyption was a new feature in gutsy.
[01:47] <FYI> is there anyway to do that fastboot from grub command line?
[01:47] <Dr_willis> But not tried it yet. :)
[01:47] <danielski_pl> Jack_Sparrow: edited xorg, no restricted modules cant see my card anymore if it does it wont start the drivers it just ends up restartin gnome
[01:48] <Odd-rationale> emma: I had a big problem with special characters in file names. And for a while a couldn't figure out why I could not open a folder under windows. Learned the lesson the hard way.
[01:48] <Thurin1> But if someone is that concerned about their security.. they might as well use BSD instead of Ubuntu, but that's another story ;D
[01:48] <Jack_Sparrow> danielski_pl: What video card?
[01:48] <danielski_pl> nVidia 8500GT
[01:48] <emma> I see.
[01:49] <Jack_Sparrow> danielski_pl: The 8000 series seem to have some problems...  All I can suggest is the wiki and read carefully
[01:49] <danielski_pl> tried everything in the wiki
[01:50] <Jack_Sparrow> danielski_pl: You will end up going to nvidia for the drivers and building them.. from what I understand
[01:50] <danielski_pl> done that
[01:50] <danielski_pl> didnt work
[01:50] <FYI> alright, trying to boot from a live cd now
[01:50] <Jack_Sparrow> danielski_pl: I know people running them and they work..  but not plug and play by a long shot
[01:50] <danbhfive> are there local ubuntu groups?
[01:50] <desteven> gparted says 'Unable to detect filesystem' and e2fsck says something about bad super-blocks although I can mount this disk, anyone know how to solve this?
[01:51] <dm_edge> Odd-rationale: I did it, but now I don't have any adapters when I do ifconfig except for lo
[01:51] <danbhfive> desteven: sounds like a bad harddrive, i would say replace the drive
[01:51] <mnemonica> LibertyShadow: Are you sure that the bcmwl15 driver is there? I don't see ti.
[01:51] <Odd-rationale> dm_edge: Have you reboot?
[01:52] <dm_edge> Odd-rationale:yeah, but /etc/network/ is still empty
[01:52] <desteven> it definitely isn't a bad hard drive, surface scan didn't give any errors
[01:52] <danbhfive> desteven: unless its new, you could reformat, this is just my opinions though
[01:52] <danielski_pl> Jack_Sparrow: i installed restricted drivers when ubuntu was fresh and they worked perfectly after installing compiz-fusion and screenlets and some ubuntu themes things started to F***k up
[01:52] <Odd-rationale> dm_edge: Ok sorry, I gues it didn't work. Just restore the fileback again...
[01:52] <LibertyShadow> mnemonica: Hold on one sec
[01:52] <Jack_Sparrow> danielski_pl: If that is where is messed up.. try asking in #Compiz
[01:52] <robdig> danbhfive: the list of "official" local groups is at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LoCoTeamList
[01:53] <dm_edge> Odd-rationale: sure no prob, any other ideas?
[01:53] <danbhfive> thanks robdig
[01:53] <Odd-rationale> dm_edge: Not atm
[01:53] <desteven> their are many files on it which I didn't backup, so can't reformat, maybe I should resize and start moving the files to a new partition on the free space?
[01:53] <robdig> danbhfive: np
[01:53] <d33d> Hey, anyone know why I would have a horrible ssh connection (extremely slow) after a dist-upgrade?
[01:53] <LibertyShadow> mnemonica: ftp://ftp.us.dell.com/network/R151517.EXE
[01:54] <dm_edge> Odd-rationale: by the way, what is the command to rerun scripts? I mean if I change etc/network/interfaces there should be a cmd that make linux run scripts again
[01:54] <LibertyShadow> in a terminal change to the directory where you download it
[01:54] <desteven> btw fdisk says it's gpt, don't know how that happened
[01:54] <LibertyShadow>  >> unzip -a R151517.EXE <<
[01:54] <mnemonica> LibertyShadow: What is it?
[01:54] <Odd-rationale> dm_edge: Don;t know. sorry.
[01:54] <dm_edge> Odd-rationale: alright, thanks anyways:)
[01:55] <Odd-rationale> dm_edge: np
[01:55] <LibertyShadow> mnemonica: That is the exe that you would extract in windows to do the installation... it has bcmwl5.inf in it.... that is what you are looking for correct?
[01:56] <mnemonica> LibertyShadow: Yeah. Thanks for the help.
[01:56] <praveen_> hw to extract a sentences which has a particular word in it ?
[01:56] <LibertyShadow> mnemonica: You could also right click on the exe and "Extract here" if you prefer the gui solution
[01:56] <praveen_> from a file
[01:56] <LibertyShadow> mnemonica: but what you are looking for is in the "DRIVER" directory
[01:56] <LibertyShadow> mnemonica: np
[01:57] <LibertyShadow> mnemonica: good luck
[01:57] <xenthro> Q: is there a command line image viewer?
[01:57] <Jack_Sparrow> LibertyShadow: that is a 52 meg download ouch
[01:57] <min> hmm..
[01:57] <FYI> how do I mount my hd from the live cd?
[01:58] <d33d> Hey, anyone know why I would have a horrible ssh connection (extremely slow) ?
[01:58] <min> quit
[01:58] <d33d> Hey, anyone know why I would have a horrible ssh connection (extremely slow) ? - Sorry for repeat (to a remote server).
[01:58] <speedcore> d33d I got the same problem
[01:58] <Jack_Sparrow> !mount

[01:58] <d33d> speedcore,  any fix ?
[01:58] <sovietn00b> any good way to respin ubuntu?
[01:58] <LibertyShadow> Jack_Sparrow, I would upload the DRIVER directory to a web location, but I think people prefer to download from dell's official sight rather than a personal http directory...
[01:58] <speedcore> I dunno...  Check the /etc/ssh/ssh_config if compression is on
[01:58] <Johnuah> I wanna a cheap Linux Kernal laptop, can anyone give me some advices?
[01:59] <speedcore> d33d: compression is only good for weak links between fast computers
[01:59] <d33d> speedcore, I think i just figured it out.
[01:59] <speedcore> d33d: what was the problem?
[01:59] <Jack_Sparrow> What is the filename on the driver..
[01:59] <sovietn00b> Johnuah: System76, Dell are your best bets, or install Linux after you buy cheap Windows Laptop
[01:59] <speedcore> d33d: I'm tunneling samba over ssh and it's much slower than it should be
[01:59] <d33d> speedcore, DNS servers on my machine here were finding the right ones i believe
[01:59] <LibertyShadow> Jack_Sparrow: http://www.skidmore.edu/~vnewell/driver/
[02:00] <toc2rta> Best bittorrent for ubuntu ?
[02:00] <FYI> Liberty shadow, you live in saratoga county?
[02:00] <d33d> speedcore, (not remote machine)
[02:00] <desteven> !fstab
[02:00] <ubotu> The /etc/fstab file indicates how drive partitions are to be used or otherwise integrated into the file system. See http://www.tuxfiles.org/linuxhelp/fstab.html and !Partitions
[02:00] <speedcore> d33d: so before you did a too long path of routers?

[02:00] <Jack_Sparrow> LibertyShadow: thanks
[02:00] <FYI> and south
[02:00] <FYI> :p
[02:00] <xenthro> toc2rta too many to mention ktorrent/deluge/azureus/qtorrent/qbittorrent/rtorrent/fluxtorrent there are so many
[02:01] <Johnuah> sovietn00b: Thankyou , but i am not sure if there is a laptop priced less than $200??
[02:01] <speedcore> d33d: you know any tips on speeding up ssh tunnels? any way?
[02:01] <abadtooth>
[02:01] <LibertyShadow> FYI sweet man, is that hudson valley?
[02:01] <sovietn00b> Johnuah: If you can scrunge a bit more, look at the ASUS EEE
[02:01] <FYI> indeed
[02:02] <sovietn00b> Johnuah: Its about 299 for low model, 399 for high model, linux preinstalled, flash memory, biult in wifi
[02:02] <d33d> speedcore, I am behind a firewall and I have to use a certain dns server (port through the firewall) to connect. Well, I guess I have to set my dns server to the firewall ip. and it works just fine ---- kinda.
[02:02] <Johnuah> Some guy said  that the function of EEE is not enough.
[02:02] <Dr_willis> I want an Asus eee - but im finding full laptops in a similer price range now a days. :)
[02:02] <Dr_willis> But i dont have $300 anyway. heh.
[02:02] <LibertyShadow> Jack_Sparrow lol I havent chmodded
[02:02] <jack-desktop> if i'm using "vncviewer -listen", how do i accept the connection and try to control the desktop afterwards?
[02:02] <orangefly> i just added a partition....how do i change the permissions so i can write to it....???....
[02:02] <Dr_willis> EEE is a bit of a specilized item. Depends on your needs.
[02:02] <d33d> speedcore, course it just slowed way down again. Dangit -- just doing a sudo apt-get upgrade....weird maybe a reboot is needed.
[02:02] <FYI> jack_sparrow: I am trying to mount, but my harddrive isn't in mtab and fstab
[02:03] <sovietn00b> Dr_Willis: Johnuah: True, EEE is a bit limited, bit half computer, half smartphone
[02:03] <testfire> Hey guys, I cannot add/remove files from my flash drive unless I'm root, how can I fix this?
[02:03] <LibertyShadow> Jack_Sparrow fixed :D
[02:03] <desteven> qtparted and gparted don't recognize the filesystem on my disk although I can mount it, what's wrong?
[02:03] <sovietn00b> testfire: as root, change permissions under properties
[02:03] <Dr_willis> jack-desktop,  from what i am reading in the vncviewer manual only some clients support that feature. Ive never used it.
[02:04] <Johnuah> sovietn00b: The EEE pc does really attract me but I 'm wondering whether it will satisfy me or not on normal usage.
[02:04] <sovietn00b> johnuah: what are your needs?
[02:04] <Scorchin> I'm running Gutsy and can't mount my NTFS drive to be readable. Here's what I've got my fstab set to at the moment for it:
[02:04] <Scorchin> /dev/hda1  /media/Omega  ntfs  umask=0002  0  0
[02:04] <Scorchin> any ideas why it's not working?
[02:04] <testfire> sovietn00b:  Thats another thing, I change them and immediately they change back (In other they cannot be changed either.)
[02:04] <Dr_willis> jack-desktop,  actually only some Vnc SERVERS support the reverse/listen feature it seems.
[02:05] <BaKKaR> why do i get this error >> " apache2: Could not reliably determine the server's fully qualified domain name, using <IP_ADDRESS> for ServerName"
[02:05] <Jack_Sparrow> LibertyShadow: Good to know
[02:05] <dm_edge> Is there anyone that knows how to solve network problems in ubuntu? I've been trying for hours to set up my network connection though nothing works. There was an internet connection once after installation, and after installing nvidia drivers I couldn't get an IP address by DHCP ever again, does anyone have an idea? I'm running kubuntu 7, and using admtek card (wired network)
[02:05] <Johnuah> sovietn00b: The most I'm care of is the rather small flash memory
[02:05] <jack-desktop> Dr_willis, thanks for the info
[02:05] <speedcore> I think the EEE PC with an 3G modem... and VNC or SSH ...  to normal workstation or server.. is the sexiest of uses
[02:05] <toc2rta> Jack_sparrow ? i require ur assistance
[02:05] <Dr_willis> jack-desktop,  vnc is a very very flexiable system. There may be other ways to do what you are trying to do (whatever that is) :)
[02:05] <sovietn00b> Johnuah: get a couple of USB drives
[02:06] <Jack_Sparrow> toc2rta: I dont have much time, I am about to go to dinner
[02:06] <Johnuah> It limitts me to store my inportant files on it, eg, pics, movies, mp3
[02:06] <speedcore> Johnuah: Tunnel huge drives from the internet...
[02:06] <testfire> How do I format my USB flash drive?
[02:06] <AndreL> Alguma Brazuka na sala?
[02:07] <AndreL>  8-)
[02:07] <speedcore> it's very easy to stream mp3's and movies and such... more networks.. for use with an eee pc
[02:07] <toc2rta> Dr_Willis,Jack_sparrow , i know this channel isn't a place for PPC users but i strongly need help getting firefox to work with java
[02:07] <Dr_willis> Im suprised there is not some 'online storage' company working with asus/eee to  have online drives with it.
[02:07] <AndreL> me use Opera chat
[02:07] <Dr_willis> toc2rta,  My experience with ppc is bad.. the imac is now in the closet.
[02:07] <toc2rta> ok
[02:07] <sovietn00b> Johnuah:set up a mybook drive to take in the laptop bagg.....there's space considering its EEE ;-)
[02:07] <speedcore> toc2rta: I can't help you... but what computer do you run ubuntu on? old mac?
[02:07] <Jack_Sparrow> toc2rta: I cant help with ppc... I simply dont have any answers
[02:07] <Johnuah> sovietn00b: Can I mod the EEEpc to enlarge the memory storage
[02:07] <AndreL> Brasileiros na sala?
[02:08] <sovietn00b> Johnuah: Check on that
[02:08] <sovietn00b> Im not sure
[02:08] <toc2rta> ehh actually
[02:08] <toc2rta> on my PS3
[02:08] <LibertyShadow> testfire: can't you use gparted, and just change the device in the upper right hand corner
[02:08] <Dr_willis> Johnuah,  some of them can be.. some cant.   from what i see on the eee forums
[02:08] <[1]panfist> i am having an issue with grub. according to my BIOS i am booting off of the secondary slave which is where linux is installed. grub is installed on this drive but by default will not boot my OS. i have to change the root drive everytime from hd3,0 to hd0,0, even though that partition doesnt have an OS on it
[02:08] <speedcore> Johnua: Flashcards are cheap.
[02:08] <speedcore> toc2rta...  ps3.. wow that's CELL
[02:08] <testfire> LibertyShadow:  I tried that, but it doesn't reset the permissions
[02:09] <toc2rta> yes
[02:09] <toc2rta> PPC(64)
[02:09] <speedcore> isn't the cell pretty diffrent from the G5...  core usage wise
[02:09] <toc2rta> i have the latest java installed but can't get it working with java
[02:09] <dxdt> I wouldn't buy the Asus EEpc right now.  I've heard interesting things from EE profs at the university that newer models may be coming using newer, lower power screens based off of new patents and such.
[02:09] <toc2rta> its possible though
[02:09] <levander> Is ubuntuforums.org down?
[02:10] <toc2rta> i never used G5 or a mac before
[02:10] <borisattva> noe. works for me
[02:10] <dxdt> levander:
[02:10] <dxdt> levander: no
[02:10] <toc2rta> this is mt first time using linux or PPC
[02:10] <speedcore> ok..
[02:10] <sovietn00b> dxdt:never buy the first of anything, too risky (wii strap, any1?)
[02:10] <praveen> my menu bar is hidden in x-chat hw do i restore it ?
[02:10] <levander> I had to Ctrl-F5.  Seems to be downloading now...
[02:10] <borisattva> does anyone know why would the gnome terminal randomly stop receiving keyboard input when telnetting into BBSs?
[02:10] <speedcore> toc2rta: run any benchmarks on it... is it fast? compared to a pc?
[02:10] <dxdt> sovietn00b: lol.  I suppose so.  I'm OK with early adoption, but I usually don't have the dollars for it :-/
[02:10] <fatejudger> When I boot up ubuntu, my ntfs partition is no longer being mounted. Then, when I try to manually mount it, fuse tells me that the "device or resource is busy". Does anyone know what's going on?
[02:10] <JFactor> can anyone help me set up my s-video tv out?\
[02:11] <BaKKaR> can anyone tell me when i try to start apache2 i get this error, why? " apache2: Could not reliably determine the server's fully qualified domain name, using <IP_ADDRESS> for ServerName"
[02:11] <harushimo> I have a quick question
[02:11] <sovietn00b> anyone used Ubuntu Customization kit?
[02:11] <toc2rta> Its as fast as a windows XP with a 1gig memory sitkc
[02:11] <BaKKaR> sovietn00b: yeah i did.
[02:11] <toc2rta> its reliable
[02:11] <harushimo> I have external hard drive which is formatted in NTFS. I can copy/write files to that hard drive
[02:11] <sovietn00b> bakkar:is it good?
[02:12] <harushimo> that's my question
[02:12] <Odd-rationale> harushimo: Yes.
[02:12] <BaKKaR> sovietn00b: very handy i would say.
[02:12] <sovietn00b> thankyou
[02:12] <BaKKaR> sovietn00b: for n00bs :)
[02:12] <speedcore> toc2rta: ok cool
[02:12] <harushimo> it won't cause any problems because I never done this before. I just want to make sure
[02:12] <speedcore> toc2rta: good luck
[02:12] <JusticeZero> Hi, I need to shut down the X server to install the Nvidia driver (having graphics issues, new install, want to see if using Nvidia's driver helps) What do I do to do that so I can run the driver install?
[02:13] <quittt> is there a GUI for bible application?
[02:13] <sovietn00b> BaKKaR: you're in 8th grade, and have 1 night to make it happen, easy way out's fine :/
[02:13] <cheesypieces> guys, can anyone suggest a good LDAP media server program, or PS3 media server?
[02:13] <quittt> !bible
[02:13] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about bible - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[02:13] <quittt> ...
[02:13] <BaKKaR> JusticeZero: o > sudo init 3 .. and then run the NVidia binary
[02:14] <JusticeZero> OK, thanks Bakkar.
[02:14] <BaKKaR> JusticeZero: or better off, Ubuntu utsy installs that by defult
[02:14] <BaKKaR> *gutsy
[02:14] <WeedGrinch> Check out #Ubuntu-Modding!
[02:14] <WeedGrinch> :)
[02:14] <harushimo> another question if I add a hard drive to ubuntu, will it automatically get detected?
[02:14] <WeedGrinch> Will your computer detect ubuntu on it?
[02:14] <JusticeZero> Er. I don't know that it has.
[02:14] <BaKKaR> harushimo: i have ubuntu gutsy .. and yes it does.
[02:14] <Odd-rationale> harushimo: It should
[02:14] <WeedGrinch> Yea it shuld
[02:15] <WeedGrinch> Mine always has
[02:15] <JFactor> !tvout
[02:15] <ubotu> For help with enabling the TV-Out, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/NvidiaTVOutNewbieEdition (Nvidia cards) or http://wiki.cchtml.com/index.php/Tvout (ATI cards, *untested*)
[02:15] <BaKKaR> harushimo: every drive i plug it .. i found it to be automatically mounted read-write
[02:15] <harushimo> ok
[02:15] <speedcore> is SSH compression ON in ubuntu by default?
[02:15] <JusticeZero> Okay, well, it installed -a- nVidia driver... Last time I was fighting with a similar issue, it seemed the one Ubuntu installed wasn't the latest.
[02:15] <WeedGrinch> !ssh
[02:15] <ubotu> SSH is the Secure SHell protocol. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SSHHowto for usage. Putty is a nice SSH client for Windows; it can be found at http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/putty/
[02:15] <heatmzzr> ok, trying to get dvds to play, installed libdvdcss2 and libdvdread, am i missing something?
[02:16] <Odd-rationale> BaKKaR: except for ext3 surprisingly
[02:16] <quittt> let's dance on the volcano!
[02:16] <harushimo> last question, how I reformat the drive to fat32 in ubuntu
[02:16] <BaKKaR> Odd-rationale: i have tried only vfat fat32 and ntfs :-)
[02:16] <harushimo> because its an ntfs format
[02:16] <JFactor> Does anyone know how to get the s-video working in gutsy with an nvidia 6150 card
[02:16] <WeedGrinch> Why do you want fat32?
[02:16] <Odd-rationale> BaKKaR: Those automounts fine with read/write support
[02:16] <WeedGrinch> !s-video
[02:16] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about s-video - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[02:17] <WeedGrinch> !svideo
[02:17] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about svideo - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[02:17] <WeedGrinch> stupid bot :@
[02:17] <Odd-rationale> harushimo: I would keep it ntfs
[02:17] <BaKKaR> JusticeZero: this is th open-source driver .. try the NVidia binary closed-srouse one.
[02:17] <JFactor> I have been trying to get this to work for about a month now
[02:17] <BaKKaR> !nvidia JusticeZero
[02:17] <harushimo> oh okay...then
[02:17] <JFactor> My resolution has been screwed up many times because of it
[02:18] <Odd-rationale> harushimo: With fat32 you have a file limit of about 4 gb
[02:18] <harushimo> yeah I forgot about that
[02:18] <fumanchu> BaKKaR, did it work ?
[02:18] <sovietn00b> anyone know is Ubuntu Customization Kit works w/ 64-bit isos?
[02:18] <BaKKaR> fumanchu: yeah, i found that lib installed already
[02:18] <harushimo> this drive be installed in my computer thats why I asked
[02:19] <BaKKaR> fumanchu: but when i tried to browse it like http://<IP_ADDRESS> it worked :)
[02:19] <Odd-rationale> harushimo: Also fat32 requires fragments more than ntfs
[02:19] <Johnuah> sovietn00b: Sorry , I'm offline for minutes/

[02:46] <WeedGrinch> :)
[02:46] <Malaz> So, upgrade SDL, how do I do it?  Anyone want to help?
[02:46] <Cathartics> I guess they need to program this IRC chat software in such a way that when they login the first place they reach would be "Newbie's paradise"
[02:47] <Cathartics> Where everyone could say "ubuntu is cool" without anyone being offended.
[02:47] <Malaz> Alas, no such place exists
[02:47] <bazhang> still offtopic alas
[02:47] <Cathartics> haha..
[02:47] <Malaz> It's almost as bad as being <racial comment>
[02:47] <Cathartics> i'm not gonna boor you guys with off topic comments..

[02:48] <WeedGrinch> When i tried to partition on vista
[02:48] <quittt> remember this IRC at first
[02:48] <innertruth> just format your vista
[02:48] <WeedGrinch> It screwed it up

[02:52] <Malaz> Stuck in a bug.  Can't play starcon 2!  Terrible!
[02:52] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about sdl - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi

[02:53] <Malaz> Noob question: How would I go about upgrading SDL to a later version (than 1.2.11)?
[02:53] <harushimo> how do format a usb drive
[02:53] <harushimo> you*
[02:54] <microphex> whats the best way to go about getting the best drivers for my geforce 8400m gs mobile card?
[02:54] <Tonren> Malaz: If you're referring to upgrading SDL beyond the version supplied in the repositories, then unfortunately, it isn't really within realistic reach of a "noob".
[02:54] <harushimo> I need to reformat it. how would I be able to do that
[02:54] <bazhang> gparted harushimo
[02:54] <ushimitsudoki> harushimo: many ways, but one easy way is using gparted ... simple GUI
[02:55] <harushimo> is the program name gparted or gpart
[02:55] <tritium> !nvidia | microphex
[02:55] <ubotu> microphex: To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[02:55] <harushimo> I read it was gpart
[02:55] <avsa242> Can anyone (assuming they have the time...may be a bit consuming) confirm with Hardy, a fresh install of mythbackend-master an inability to connect to the mysql server (mine is bound to my lan ip, denies connections from it as well as localhost)?

[02:55] <Malaz> Tonren:  Well, thanks for responding.  I suppose there will be a new version in the repos with the release of 8.04?
[02:55] <avsa242> doh, sorry
[02:55] <heatmzzr> ok all, trying to play dvds in my friends computer, seems to have the same files i do in mine and mine plays fine, libdvdcss2, libdvdread3, any others im missing or what am i doing wrong
[02:56] <tritium> Malaz: yes
[02:56] <Tonren> Malaz: That's probable.  The unfortunate thing about Ubuntu's package-based distribution system is that it's hard for inexperienced users (and a hassle for experienced users) to go past the versions in the repositories.
[02:56] <Tonren> Malaz: And the maintainers can't upgrade versions frivolously at the risk of breaking other stuff.
[02:56] <Tonren> It's a tough balance to strike.
[02:57] <Djnet> hello all
[02:57] <bazhang> starcon2 would likely not tip the balance
[02:57] <theaxeman> I just installed Ubuntu on my third system in the last week. Everything's going great. But, I got to the login screen on this lastest install, and I must've typed in something wrong with my username/password during the setup and can't get in.
 Is there a way to get in without doing a re-install?
[02:57] <Malaz> Ahh, but SDL would, maybe
[02:57] <Tonren> bazhang: That's not an Ubuntu problem, but a wine problem.  (I'm assuming starcon2 is a Windows game.)
[02:57] <ronny1> is there any increase in performance when using ubuntu 64 bit over ubuntu 32 bit ?
[02:57] <tritium> theaxeman: yes, boot into single-user (recovery) mode
[02:57] <Malaz> bazhang: The version in the repos is nearly up to date.
[02:58] <Djnet> has anyone gotten red alert 2 to work on wine
[02:58] <bazhang> Tonren: you must be new here ;]
[02:58] <Tonren> ronny1: It's debatable.  You will experience horrible compatibility issues with Flash in 64bit, though.  I recommend sticking with 32bit.
[02:58] <Malaz> Tonren: starcon 2 is released under the GPL, and has been ported to linux.
[02:58] <Tonren> bazhang: Why?
[02:58] <theaxeman> Cool. Thanks!
[02:58] <ushimitsudoki> djnet: best place for that is AppDB at winehq.com

[03:00] <Tonren> Malaz: Then you've played Master of Orion, as well.  :-)
[03:00] <Dr_willis> I suck at the UQM game however.. its just a bit.. well tedious at times.
[03:00] <Celes> How come one cannot play on multiplayer mode of open arena..when I go to search for servers nothing shows up :(?
[03:00] <Dr_willis> Celes,  be sure its looking on the internet, not the local lan.
[03:00] <Malaz> Tonren: I wouldn't call myself a human being if I hadn't.  I played it so much it developed a crack and exploded in my computer
[03:00] <Celes> How do I make sure of that Dr_willis ?
[03:00] <Malaz> Tonren: Sadly I haven't played it since.
[03:01] <Tonren> Malaz: Brilliant.  I'll see if I can fit in Star Control 2 sometime.
[03:01] <Dr_willis> Celes,  should be a button there some where in the  game browser listing.
[03:01] <Celes> and what is this punkster thats apparently disabled? is it a anti bot system?
[03:01] <Dr_willis> Celes,  if it has it.. lots of those games do.
[03:01] <Dr_willis> Punkbuster is an anti-cheat system

[03:01] <danonura> Ububegin: i found i have CACAO jvm installed.
[03:01] <Malaz> Tonren: It's an epic(ish) interstellar adventure game of massively epic proportions.  By the way, it is not affiliated with Starcon 3 in any way.  Ever.
[03:01] <Dr_willis> Celes,  its not a feature of openarena - just the original arena game i think
[03:02] <Dr_willis> Celes,  check that !games site for  specifics for openarena perhaps.
[03:02] <Tonren> So, can anyone help me fix FIrefox?

[03:03] <theaxeman> >Malaz< I'm in single-user, Recovery Mode. Is there a command to reset the username/password?
[03:03] <linux__alien> so does Ubuntu allow kernel compilation and stuff like that?

[03:03] <Tonren> theaxeman: passwd

[03:04] <aszwet1> Djnet, i have them enabled

[03:09] <aszwet1> ?

[03:10] <bazhang> Tonren: not sure--why not try without and see what happens

[03:13] <linux__alien> is there any current alternative to Adobe Flash problems?

[03:13] <Celes> bazhang, thanks for trying..
[03:13] <KrAsHeR> Tonren: let me correct you... 7.10 isn't perfect... in older versions... the video driver worked like magic... now, with this stinkin' failsafe mode... everytime is failsafe!
[03:13] <Hammer89> bazhang: I changed my metacity theme... and my emerald theme... then pressed alt-cntrl-backspace... logged back in... but all I'd get was a black screen with an X as a cursor
[03:14] <Celes> ill ask later... ><
[03:14] <the_alamo> i have installed the latest nvidia driver using envy.  today there is a linux-hreaders update.  what do i need to do before/after i install the update to that my system doesn't crash.
[03:14] <Tonren> KrAsHeR: Yeah, Ubuntu has broken with updates for me, too.
[03:14] <harushimo> I look at the man page, internet, documentation on the internet...is there a way to reformat or zero an hard drive using gparted
[03:14] <bazhang> the_alamo: envy uh oh.
[03:14] <alexander> hey, I'm trying to compile freeciv from source but getting an error concerning gtk+
[03:15] <harushimo> i'll keep looking. if anyone knows, drop me a line
[03:15] <alexander> has anyone encountered this problem, surely gtk+ is installed by default
[03:15] <bazhang> harushimo: in the faq
[03:15] <heatmzzr_> ok, how do i get the program to do the box thingy, the eyecandy? have squiggly windows now but not the configuration program
[03:15] <eshaase_> i setup a new gutsy machine with x11vnc and when i use vncviewer to connect to the machine my mouse moves around ok but i can't click or enter my login to the screensaver, this works on my feisty machine and i have no way of explaining why this is hapenning, anyone have any ideas?
[03:15] <astro76> alexander: not any -dev packages
[03:15] <Djnet> hey does anyone have a guide to install cedega
[03:15] <alexander> astro76: sorry what?
[03:15] <Falco98> anyone know if there's a trick to squeeze a linux install onto a disc which is already half-full of valuable data in NTFS?

[03:16] <heatmzzr_> thanks bahang
[03:16] <Falco98> i.e. could the linux installer (or any other tool) make a new partition without destroying the current one?
[03:16] <Tonren> Can someone, anyone, PLEASE help me fix Firefox.
[03:16] <bazhang> Falco98: sure
[03:16] <the_alamo> bazhang, trouble?  i used envy because the driver that the restricted-drivers app installs isn't great for my card.
[03:16] <astro76> alexander: you'll need to look for a gtk package ending in -dev or -devel, these contain the headers and such necessary for compiling
[03:16] <Djnet> tonren: reinstalling didnt work
[03:16] <bazhang> !envy | the_alamo
[03:16] <ubotu> the_alamo: envy is not needed or supported. Use the Resticted Manager to install binary drivers and see « /msg ubotu binarydriver »
[03:16] <linux__alien> one general question for Ubuntu . Whats the difference between Fedora and Ubuntu in terms of packages and is Ubuntu only a end user system or can it be used by developers too ?
[03:16] <Falco98> bazhang: can you give me some quick details?
[03:16] <Tonren> Djnet: Nope.
[03:16] <alexander> astro76: alright, thanks a lot, I'm looking now... I want gtk2-dev or something like that?
[03:17] <WeedGrinch> I install EggDrop but I cant locate any of the files with search.... Help?
[03:17] <bazhang> Falco98: you mean a dual boot?
[03:17] <bazhang> Falco98: vista installed first?
[03:17] <astro76> linux__alien: linux is linux, both are suitable for devs or anyone else
[03:17] <Falco98> bazhang: yeah, that's what i'd like to end up with, but my point is, the disk i want to install on already has an NTFS partition that i don't want to destroy.. even if it's not full
[03:17] <alexander> astro76: looks like the closest thing is gtk2.0-binver-2.10 there is no -dev
[03:17] <travisat> linux__alien: ubuntu devs generally use ubuntu I would hope
[03:17] <Falco98> bazhang: xp, but yeah it's already windows'd
[03:18] <WeedGrinch> Where do files i install from Sudo Apt-Get install X go?
[03:18] <Wrec> I need an advanced user to help me switch the linux kernel that is booted by default. My menu.lst file does not seem to be editing what the grub is doing. I know exactly how this is supposed to normally be done. I need someone with lots of experience.
[03:18] <cry01> hi, anyone can tell me whats the difference between a presanitized header and an orginal kernel header? And also how I would apply a patch like this one? I am quite confused... http://www.linuxtv.org/pipermail/linux-dvb/2008-January/022833.html
[03:18] <bazhang> linux__alien: fedora uses rpm--ubuntu uses apt--one is stable and usable, the other not so much
[03:18] <the_alamo> bazhang, well i think that ubotu is maybe a little biased and well, just wrong.  i needed the newer driver for my card to function properly
[03:18] <bazhang> oops deb
[03:18] <linux__alien> developers i mean the kernel coz i play with the kernel
[03:18] <linux__alien> so just wanted to know
[03:18] <astro76> !info libgtk2.0-dev | alexander
[03:18] <ubotu> alexander: libgtk2.0-dev (source: gtk+2.0): Development files for the GTK+ library. In component main, is optional. Version 2.12.0-1ubuntu3 (gutsy), package size 2588 kB, installed size 9132 kB
[03:18] <bazhang> the_alamo: well the rules here say dont support envy
[03:19] <Wrec> does anyone else have wireless issues in the 'new' kernel?
[03:19] <alexander> astro76: thanks a lot
[03:19] <travisat> linux__alien: yes you can dev on the kernel in ubuntu
[03:19] <nickrud> the_alamo: too many people don't realize that a kernel upgrade requires reinstall of envy, or have issues during an upgrade to the next release.
[03:20] <nickrud> s/reinstall/rerunning/
[03:20] <Wrec> does anyone know how to change the default OS to boot in grub
[03:20] <bazhang> Falco98: so you have multiple partitions on this disk?
[03:20] <Falco98> the_alamo: funny, fedora didn't support my laptop's wireless card *at all*, but ubuntu found it with no problems whatsoever :-P
[03:21] <linux__alien> travisat, ve not used much of Ubuntu just used Live CD. Now ve got a laptop Dell Inspiron 1520 and installed ubuntu and fedora too fedora didnt recognize the wireless card and know the problem but i dont have any other internet connection except the wireless to fix it even to download the packages i need a connection so Ubuntu detected it and its good too so just wanted to know about it a little more
[03:21] <Falco98> bazhang: yeah; one is a small partition with XP on it, and is almost full.  the other contains all my data, and is about half full.  Optimally I'd like to ... er, make a new partition using the empty space on this drive, and put linux on it in a multi-boot type situation.
[03:21] <sjolshag> How do I get the snd_intel8x0 sound out of the headphones and from the speakers after Suspend/resume cycle?
[03:21] <nickrud> Wrec: set the default (near the top in /boot/grub/menu.lst) , count your os's starting with 0
[03:21] <Wrec> nickrud: this does not change the default booting contrary to all reason ><
[03:21] <Falco98> bazhang: the problem is, i'm *just* familiar enough with partitioning to know that this has always been impossible, at least with traditional DOS partitioning tools... but I don't know what Linux can do...
[03:22] <the_alamo> bazhang, it is true that ubuntu doesn't support envy but this is a community channel and i am asking the community for help.
[03:22] <erawfish> !envy
[03:22] <ubotu> envy is not needed or supported. Use the Resticted Manager to install binary drivers and see « /msg ubotu binarydriver »
[03:22] <jmlane> Hi all. My friend managed to screw up and deleted my user from our ubuntu machine. I restored a backed-up /etc/passwd and /etc/group (from /var/backups) but when I go to login or su I get "Authentication service cannot retrieve authentication info". Any ideas?
[03:22] <Wrec> nickrud: I've tried this along with the 'saved' function (and have learned a lot in the process), but the simple function to boot what I want remains unreached
[03:22] <nickrud> Wrec: you sure? I've used it in the past, but not recently
[03:22] <bazhang> the_alamo: just be thankful the stricter ops are not about
[03:22] <astro76> the_alamo: the community doesn't want to help with it either
[03:22] <erawfish> the_alamo: see the "not supported"? what ubotu says is LAW here
