[02:12] <zaggynl> MaxFrames, look in the xorg logs, I suspect the problem lies there.
[02:12] <MaxFrames> i dunno... i am able to see my desktop for a few seconds, then it disappears
[02:12] <ZeroA4> MaxFrames, the xubuntu logon screen has a session selector ? does it have a safe session ?
[02:13] <predaeus> it's gdm
[02:13] <Raiden> CyberMadz , I spoke about adobe reader for linux )
[02:13] <MaxFrames> it has a failsafe terminal option
[02:13] <CyberMadz> Raiden yes i know
[02:14] <ZeroA4> MaxFrames, no xfce safe session ?
[02:14] <MaxFrames> no
[02:14] <MaxFrames> options are
[02:14] <MaxFrames> 1) xfce session

[02:18] <giany911> guy im trying to install something .tar.gz .. when i type ./configure i get this configure: error: cannot find install-sh or install.sh in . ./.. ./../..

[02:19] <MaxFrames> how do i set the resolution and the refresh rate via command line?
[02:20] <MaxFrames> what if i delete xorg.conf, will it be recreated?
[02:20] <MaxFrames> suppose it's damaged
[02:20] <MaxFrames> I have found a log, but i cant figure out head or tails about it... only thing i know is that i can't use the system anymore
[02:21] <ZeroA4> MaxFrames, the xfce was working before?
[02:21] <MaxFrames> before the upgrade it worked a charm
[02:21] <stefg> MaxFrames: sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg to write a fresh xorg.conf
[02:22] <pumpkinhead> ubuntu grub has put something on the windows drive which disables me from accessing it as stand-alone. does anyone know how i can fix it?
[02:22] <giany911> guy im trying to install something .tar.gz .. when i type ./configure i get this configure: error: cannot find install-sh or install.sh in . ./.. ./../..
[02:22] <ZeroA4> pumpkinhead, what do you mean stand alone ?
[02:22] <predaeus> pumpkinhead, grub reads it's menu entries from the /boot partition of the ubuntu install
[02:22] <Pici> giany911: Does the INSTALL or README file for that package tell you to use ./configure or some other method?
[02:22] <stefg> pumpkinhead: installrd ubuntu on an external disk, using the desktop install?
[02:22] <WeeJeWel> giany911, did you extacted the tar.gz at all?
[02:23] <pumpkinhead> i installed ubuntu on a seperate drive, internal. the win drive was connected but not selected for install, also internal drive
[02:23] <giany911> pici yes it tells me to use ./configure then make ...
[02:23] <stefg> pumpkinhead: so what happens?
[02:23] <giany911> and yes i unarchived ..
[02:23] <pumpkinhead> i get a grup error message, no load
[02:23] <pumpkinhead> *grub
[02:24] <stefg> pumpkinhead: pleae be precise... what error numbers under which circumstance
[02:24] <pumpkinhead> one moment
[02:24] <ZeroA4> pumpkinhead, Grub needs to be on the MBR of the MASTER HD. but it should have made a menu where you can choose linux or windows
[02:24] <Pici> giany911: What package?
[02:24] <MaxFrames> I got a bunch of questions, i chose the default values for all
[02:24] <aMMuNix> how can I purge myself from a certain package
[02:25] <stefg> MaxFrames: bette choose the right ones
[02:25] <giany911> anyremote ... its a bluetooth remote utility
[02:25] <kdubois> aMMuNix, apt-get remove --purge package
[02:25] <giany911> its killing me .. i  cant get anything to work !

[02:25] <MaxFrames> no way.... after a few seconds the mouse freezes, then the display goes garbaged, and then the logon screen again
[02:25] <pumpkinhead> there is a grub menu. but i need to access windows safe mode by holding down control and this is not possible from the grub loader. as stand alone all i get is error message. would you still like to know exact error message? if so will bb in a min

[02:29] <bricas> stefg: thank you kindly.
[02:29] <incorrect> i am trying to convince people that ubuntu kicks redhat's ass,  one thing i need to show is the PXE installation method

[02:30] <ubotu> Ubuntu can be installed in lots of ways. Please see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation for documentation. Problems during install? See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/CommonProblemsInstall and https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DapperReleaseNotes/UbiquityKnownIssues - See also !automate

[02:30] <stefg> incorrect: look at edubuntu, it employs LTSP stuff for that
[02:30] <sapumal>  cat /etc/`ls /etc | grep release`
[02:31] <sapumal> you will get the release info
[02:31] <Pici> giany911: I'm looking at that program right now, hold on a minute or two
[02:31] <admintroy> how do i start gnome desktop from the cli?
[02:32] <giany911> Pici: im waiting ...
[02:32] <admintroy> anyone?
[02:33] <stefg> admintroy: simply 'startx' ... given you have a proper X-session set up for gnome
[02:33] <admintroy> i get unable to connect ot X server
[02:33] <predaeus> admintroy, try "sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart"
[02:34] <goran_gejmer> im trying to remove some files on an ntfs hdd by using the ubuntu live cd (im very new to linux). When i try to remove files it gives me "<filename> cannot be deleted because it is on a read-only disk", whats the solution_
[02:35] <stefg> goran_gejmer: ntfs needs special drivers for read/write access, which aren't enabled on the Live-CD
[02:35] <admintroy> predaus: same error
[02:35] <goran_gejmer> stefg: those ntfs-3g drivers right?
[02:35] <Pici> giany911: do this: `sudo aptitude install automake1.9`
[02:36] <Pici> giany911: then you will be able to ./configure without error.
[02:36] <pumpkinhead> 1: win drive was connected but not allocated during install to ubuntu drive (both internal drives) 2. win shows up on boot menu and loads partially but i must fix fatal error from safe mode 3. cannot override to safe mode using grub menu 4. when booting to win drive as stand alone following error message occurs: Grub Error 15. Can I fix this?
[02:36] <admintroy> predeaus: same error
[02:37] <giany911> Pici: so far so good thx:)
[02:38] <Pici> giany911: no problem :)
[02:38] <goran_gejmer> stefg: does the live dvd include those drives then?
[02:38] <goran_gejmer> drivers
[02:39] <admintroy> predeaus: i am running apt-get install gnome again
[02:39] <flamesrock> anyone know how to upload a large number of files to menalto gallery2 at once?
[02:41] <pumpkinhead> one more shot then i will give up: grub seems to have written something to the win drive which disables me from using it as stand alone. does anyone know where this code was written? i cannot find a grub directory in a search of the drive.

[02:48] <pyld> CyberMadz, g4u is ok
[02:49] <WeeJeWel_> miles_, why dont you just download the tarball?
[02:51] <miles_> Because this package is supposed to be in the repositories according to Ubuntu-fr, moreover I'm just writing a quick paper on DVD authoring in Linux and want to keep it really simple... my readers won't want to compile anything
[02:51] <miles_> Oh, there's a .deb on GetDeb - that should do it
[02:52] <pyld> miles_, maybe try to widen your search? search for dvd and see if you find it
[02:52] <pyld> miles_, maybe you need to add/enable more package repositories
[02:52] <Shankysv87> i need help my ubuntu os, i can't figure out why when my computer goes to a states of idle, istead of showing the screensaver, it goes to a logged out look.  My programs continue to run from asking friends if my messenger statuses chance, they say it doesn't.

[02:53] <johnson> kenneth
[02:53] <cebu2007_> all black but i know its working
[02:53] <stefg> pumpkinhead: somehow your menu.lst ist pointing to a wrong partititon (error 15 is 'file not found'). Is your win XP or Vista?
[02:54] <johnson> anybody knows about django
[02:54] <cebu2007_> i can log to my account after the dark 2mins boot process

[02:55] <tanaka> whats the correct way of installing the newest nvidia drivers from the nvidia site.I installed build-essentials and installed the driver,but it failed last time after reboot (i am using a freshly installed os /w 2.6.20-16 kernel now)
[02:55] <Messi> serbo
[02:55] <CyberMadz> thanks stefg
[02:56] <WeeJeWel> tanaka, what distro?
[02:56] <cebu2007_> is it weejewel, maybe some adjustments for my graphics during booting?
[02:56] <WeeJeWel> dont think so.. is your boot config correct?
[02:57] <tanaka> WeeJeWel: Kubuntu(Don't tell me that i should ask from #kubuntu,as i already did)
[02:57] <WeeJeWel> try sudo apt-get install nvidia-glx
[02:57] <WeeJeWel> it usally works
[02:57] <WeeJeWel> did for me though :P
[02:58] <pumpkinhead> stefg: it is winME (i know i know)
[02:58] <lopa> Iam runing vmware server on ubuntu dapper and I want to add a virtual machine on a new HD ... what should I do just mount the new HD and try to add new virtual machine?
[02:58] <WeeJeWel> the drivers downloaded from the nvidia site are for older versions
[02:58] <tanaka> WeeJeWel: I want the latest 100.14.9 driver
[02:58] <WeeJeWel> hmm ok
[02:58] <DJ-_-> need help with bluetooth :S.....it wont scan properly
[02:59] <WeeJeWel> so what did go wrong last time?
[02:59] <pumpkinhead> i found some things on the ubuntu forums will try it
[02:59] <DJ-_-> on hcitool scan, after some time it shows inquiry failed; connection timed out
[02:59] <lopa> anyone?
[02:59] <stefg> pumpkinhead: the reason i asked is that it's known that vista is quite ugly in dualboot situations. but ME should be fine, unless you have no other trouble as bad sectors, broken partition tables, or a plain broken windows
[02:59] <tanaka> WeeJeWel: i did not load kde
[03:00] <pumpkinhead> stefg: ok.
[03:00] <WeeJeWel> was there an error? :P
[03:00] <lopa> anyone?
[03:01] <Pici> !anyone
[03:01] <ubotu> A large amount of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..."  Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out?
[03:01] <lopa> I did.
[03:01] <lopa> Iam runing vmware server on ubuntu dapper and I want to add a virtual machine on a new HD ... what should I do just mount the new HD and try to add new virtual machine?
[03:01] <tanaka> WeeJeWel: i showed a bunch of errors when i tried startx(eventhogh it loaded kde when i ran startx just after driver installation)
[03:02] <clouder`grr> If I deleted the wine menu from the Application menu, how can I get it back?
[03:02] <lopa> pici: I already asked

[03:03] <cebu2007_> about the black screen a say
[03:03] <WeeJeWel> unless you like the logo :P
[03:04] <DJ-_-> anyone here experience with bluetooth troubleshooting?

[03:04] <tanaka> WeeJeWel: it didn't load kde!
[03:04] <DJ-_-> ..d*
[03:04] <WeeJeWel> you just said it did lol
[03:05] <WeeJeWel> and what if you run /etc/init.d/gdm restart?
[03:05] <tanaka> WeeJeWel: it worked before reboot

[03:07] <MrMist> I'm having a real nut to crack here... I need to be able to get the coordinates from two individual mice independently
[03:07] <WeeJeWel> well, thats because you still used the old drivers!
[03:07] <philth> MrMist, Cool, Not that I can help but may I ask what it's for?
[03:07] <indraveni> hi, what is the channel where I can discuss the ubutnu developement work

[03:08] <interglossa> did anyone have problems with networking in feisty? i can't get networking going in the livecd
[03:08] <WeeJeWel> that doesnt make sence
[03:08] <WeeJeWel> sense*
[03:09] <tanaka> WeeJeWel: before means before 100.14.6 driver install
[03:09] <interglossa> i have read you need to reinstall avahi but you can't do then on livecd
[03:09] <WeeJeWel> yes, i get it...
[03:10] <WeeJeWel> so the drivers weren't installed correctly, or they're buggy
[03:10] <rowenthedark> How can I change Icons on my desktop that I don't have permissions to change?
[03:10] <WeeJeWel> you just used the old drivers for changing resolutions etc
[03:10] <WeeJeWel> rowenthedark, chmod them through a root terminal
[03:11] <CyberMad> WeeJeWel i usually share printer on windows, then if i want to setup the shared printer on other computer, i just need to run \\computer_IP\ then double click the printer, the drivers will be copied to the system. Does if i share the printer with linux will share the drivers or should i install new driver on the other OS?
[03:11] <Pici> MrMist: I dont think its possible.  The mice themselves dont have coordinates, just the cursor on the screen.  Unless of course, you have some sort of tablet you're using.
[03:11] <rowenthedark> WeeJeWel: isn't there an easier way?
[03:12] <WeeJeWel> CyberMad, windows has them, they dont get send.
[03:12] <WeeJeWel> rowenthedark, yeah, install windows :P
[03:13] <erUSUL> CyberMad: irc samba has the option to send drivers to windows clients... you will have to find a good how to or read the good docs in samba.org
[03:13] <stefg> MrMist: if you don't need to see two pointers you can setup a second X-server (listening to the second mouse)

[03:15] <stefg> MrMist: a bit, but most of it would be shared mem anyway

[03:17] <Steven_> hi
[03:17] <jlu> Pici: is that a gtk 2.0 theme? (as opposed to 1.0)
[03:18] <stefg> MrMist: then rather look at gpm, or read raw input data from /dev
[03:18] <Pici> jlu: Whatever you want, I believe both will work.
[03:18] <JuJuBee> I have never compiled a program, only used binaries.
[03:18] <jlu> Pici: thanks! you've been most kind. i though gtk was something you used pre beryl
[03:18] <admintroy> guys, I need some help.  My server is saying it cannot find etc/X11/X ... how do i fix that?
[03:18] <Steven_> i've 2 sata hds and a pata one, before the upgrade to feisty they were recognized as /dev/sda, sdb and hda, now they appear as sda, sdb and sdc.. why?
[03:19] <Pici> jlu: Metacity is what provides the window decorations pre-beryl, you still use GTK.
[03:19] <interglossa> anyone have problems getting networking working with feisty live cd?
[03:19] <ssuuddoo_> no
[03:19] <Hobbsee> smcgraw: can you hear me?
[03:19] <jlu> Pici: ah, i see :)
[03:20] <interglossa> ssuuddoo_ you were able to get it to work?
[03:21] <admintroy> My server is saying it cannot find etc/X11/X trying to startx.. what do i do to fix?
[03:21] <MrMist> stefg: gpm ?
[03:21] <ssuuddoo_> is your /etc/X11/xorg.conf file ok?
[03:21] <admintroy> i have no X11 directory
[03:22] <stefg> MrMist: sudo cat /dev/input/mouse0 :-) ... a second mouse would probly be mouse1 ... just pipe the raw data where you want them (you are not going to point to objects on screen anyway)
[03:22] <admintroy> i think i need to install x.... how do i do that?
[03:22] <Hobbsee> bling
[03:22] <Steven_> any help?
[03:22] <Hobbsee> Tm_T: can you hear me?
[03:22] <Pici> Hobbsee: I can..
[03:22] <Hobbsee> right.
[03:23] <Hobbsee> either i put the ban in wrong, or it works.
[03:23] <sainzeo> hey all - i recently installed Pidgin onto a fresh install of Feisty, but I have no sound - any suggestions?
[03:23] <admintroy> ssuuddoo_ :I have no X11 directory on the system
[03:24] <MrMist> stefg: I've got one interface for both mice: /dev/input/mice
[03:24] <MrMist> stefg: mouse0 mouse1 doesn't give me anything
[03:25] <cebu2007_> guys i cant install kubuntu -desktop on my feisty
[03:25] <johns^> why not?
[03:25] <thmcmahon> cebu2007_: why
[03:26] <jesus> I'm trying to get my tv-out working (nVidia FX 5200), setting up modes like "1600x1200,640x480" does not make the computer display in 1600x1200 and the tv in the other, but instead changes the computer to display 2240x1200 so it extends the desktop in such a way that the tv displays something out of the (to the computer) visible desktop range.
[03:26] <defrysk> cebu2007_, kubuntu-desktop
[03:26] <pihus> any good ftp client besides GFTP?
[03:26] <johns^> pihus: ncftp
[03:26] <jesus> Any one know of whats wrong? or where I can get help?
[03:26] <thmcmahon> johns^: is that cli?
[03:26] <JuJuBee> If I need to add a compile time option to squid, do I need to uninstall my version (installed via synaptic) and download the source and recompile and reinstall?
[03:26] <thmcmahon> jesus: what with
[03:26] <Frogzoo> pihus: apt-cache search ftp & take your pick
[03:26] <johns^> thmcmahon: yeah. it rocks
[03:26] <pihus> johns^, isn't ncftp command line based?
[03:26] <cebu2007_> after configuring which default desktop used im stuck on configuration package
[03:26] <thmcmahon> johns^: cool i'll have to have a look
[03:26] <dooglus> I've got a .rmvb (real media) video file here which only plays sound, no video, when I try to watch it.  I've let movie player install the codec it found, but it doesn't help.  Any suggestions?
[03:27] <johns^> thmcmahon: it can up and download in the background
[03:27] <defrysk> dooglus, try vlc
[03:27] <Frogzoo> dooglus: tried vlc?
[03:27] <admintroy> ssuuddoo_ :I have no X11 directory on the system
[03:27] <defrysk> !info vlc > dooglus
[03:27] <WeeJeWel> wtf
[03:27] <jesus> thmcmahon: My description might not be obvious, but it is basically that I cannot display anything on my tv even if the tv-out is working
[03:27] <WeeJeWel> /etc/X11 doesnt exist?
[03:27] <FFX> Capture the flag
[03:27] <FFX> http://flag.craigslist.org/?flagCode=28&postingID=350254695
[03:28] <admintroy> not on my system... even after apt-get install gnome
[03:28] <dooglus> defrysk, Frogzoo: vlc is worse - it plays the sound only, but in 0.5 second bursts, with silence between them
[03:28] <thmcmahon> dooglus: try mplayer or helix
[03:28] <dooglus> defrysk, Frogzoo: mplayer plays only sound, too
[03:28] <admintroy> can i install it?
[03:28] <thmcmahon> dooglus: probably helix should work it is made by real
[03:28] <defrysk> dooglus, quaklity of the file is ok ?
[03:28] <defrysk> quality*
[03:29] <dooglus> defrysk: I guess so.  mplayer says: "Video: no video" when I play it
[03:30] <defrysk> dooglus, try thmcmahon's suggestion
[03:30] <jesus> Is it that noone understands my problem, or that noone can help me?
[03:30] <admintroy> how do i put X11 on my system?
[03:30] <dooglus> thmcmahon: ok, thanks.  I'm installing it now.
[03:30] <thmcmahon> dooglus: np hope it works, i've never used it though

[03:32] <dewdude> so i'm guessing till creative releases some xfi drivers...there's no xfi support for ubuntu?
[03:32] <interglossa> anyone try to run networking on feisty live cd?
[03:32] <dewdude> no one's even hacked basic support together?
[03:32] <Tm_T> Hobbsee: yes?
[03:33] <Hobbsee> Tm_T: was testing, thanks
[03:33] <Tm_T> hmm
[03:33] <thmcmahon> dooglus: sorry man no idea :(
[03:33] <stefg> dewdude: has been replaced by LOLCODE :-)
[03:33] <dewdude> i'm just askin.
[03:34] <dooglus> is realplayer available from the ubuntu repositories?
[03:34] <dewdude> i've got no sound....i won't use linux with no sound.
[03:34] <admintroy> how do i re-install X11 on my system?
[03:34] <strabes> Anyone know if the ExpressCard Media Remote works under ubuntu? It's a bluetooth remote that charges in the pcmcia slot
[03:34] <thmcmahon> dooglus: don't think so i think you need to get it off their site
[03:34] <jlu> i know gnome store thumbnails locally somewhere in my home-directory, but i can't remember where. anyone?
[03:34] <Frogzoo> !hardware | strabes
[03:34] <ubotu> strabes: For lists of supported hardware on Ubuntu see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupport
[03:34] <stefg> admintroy: what do you run?
[03:35] <thmcmahon> jlu: prolly in .gnome or .gnome2 have a hunt around there
[03:35] <admintroy> stefg: ISPconfig V irtual machine
[03:35] <Ohzie> dewdude: I havea soundblaster 16 that has perfectly awesome hardware mixing.
[03:35] <dewdude> Ohzie, a SB16 < SB XFi.
[03:35] <admintroy> i want to install gnome for the desktop, but it keeps failing saying /etc/X11/X does not exists
[03:36] <Ohzie> It cost me 5 dollars. It works. I plug in my speakers and have sound. =)
[03:36] <thmcmahon> Ohzie: can you get line in to work on it, i've got a live, is it the same chipset?
[03:36] <aoirthoir> Does anyone know how to set thunderbird so that it will not mark messages as read if I just have them highlighted in the list?
[03:36] <dewdude> yes...i know.
[03:36] <dooglus> thmcmahon: installing realplayer from the web sorted it, much as I hae that program :)
[03:36] <dooglus> s/hae/hate/
[03:36] <thmcmahon> admintroy: have you installed off a cd?
[03:36] <dewdude> they're cheap.
[03:36] <Ohzie> thmcmahon: No idea. I haven't tried.
[03:36] <dewdude> i don't have any cheap cards laying around
[03:36] <defrysk> dooglus, http://archive.canonical.com/ubuntu/pool/main/r/realplay/
[03:36] <stefg> admintroy: so you are running a (remote) server install inside a virtual machine? well, that requires a different setup
[03:36] <gday> jlu: in ~/.thumbnails
[03:36] <thmcmahon> Ohzie: haha ok
[03:36] <magnetron> me wants a thinkpad
[03:36] <jlu> thmcmahon: ah, found it! (.thumbnails - duh!)
[03:36] <gday> magnetron: wanna have mine? ;)
[03:36] <magnetron> gday: sure!
[03:37] <dooglus> defrysk: is there some sources.list line I should add to have apt-get be able to find it?
[03:37] <jlu> gday: hehe thanks! :)
[03:37] <admintroy> stefg: thats correct.. my other one wasn't this damn hard :)
[03:37] <cain`> hey all, can a folder belong to serveral groups???
[03:37] <gday> jlu: that's what I said ;)
[03:37] <Ohzie> Oh man though I am so glad everything I use works on linux. Now I never have to use windows ever. The only reason I'm bothering to dual boot is because if my g/f can't play The Sims 2 she makes my life miserable.
[03:37] <defrysk> dooglus, oh feisty ?
[03:37] <magnetron> i'll pm you my adress, gday ;)
[03:37] <dooglus> defrysk: yes
[03:37] <dewdude> Ohzie: hah...i'm triple-booting.
[03:37] <admintroy> thmcmahon: it was a virutal appliance I dwonloaded from the vmware website
[03:37] <jesus> the nvtv - tip I got didn't work. Still the same problem.
[03:37] <gday> magnetron: it's on its way ;)
[03:37] <defrysk> dooglus: deb http://archive.canonical.com/ubuntu feisty-commercial main
[03:37] <aoirthoir> nvm i found it:)
[03:37] <stefg> admintroy: you don't need an xserver on the *remote* machine, but on your local one. what are you running locally?
[03:37] <dooglus> !info realplay
[03:38] <gypsymauro> hello
[03:38] <ubotu> Package realplay does not exist in feisty, feisty-seveas
[03:38] <gypsymauro> what's the lightest ubuntu version?
[03:38] <marsoe> xubuntu
[03:38] <defrysk> dooglus, thats the line
[03:38] <stefg> gypsymauro: i'd guess fluxbuntu
[03:38] <cain`> hey all, can a folder belong to serveral groups???
[03:38] <ferronica> how to use my TV tuner card, connected via my settop box (DISH TV)
[03:38] <fuzzyhair> setfg: is that official though?
[03:38] <admintroy> the base machine is ubuntu dapper lts, which i can vnc into, but i want to use gnome on the desktop of the virtual machine
[03:38] <magnetron> gypsymauro: the server version is the lightest, but i has no graphical interface
[03:38] <Mortuis> How do I check my kernel version on the command line?
[03:39] <dewdude> ferronica: uhh....hook the RF of the dish box into the RF of the tuner card and set the tuner card to channel 3?
[03:39] <dooglus> Mortuis: uname -r
[03:39] <iesos> trying to get my tvout to work on a nVidia FX 5200.
[03:39] <Mortuis> thanks dooglus
[03:39] <iesos> Did the HowTo on the wiki
[03:39] <ferronica> dewdude: i did
[03:39] <defrysk> iesos, run nvidia-settings
[03:39] <dewdude> ok...what's not working?
[03:39] <admintroy> stefg: the base machine is ubuntu dapper lts, which i can vnc into, but i want to use gnome on the desktop of the virtual machine
[03:39] <dewdude> iesos, i never got tv out working on a 5200 either
[03:39] <ferronica> dewdude: i have connected RCA and video cable both
[03:39] <defrysk> dewd, i do
[03:40] <defrysk> no prob with nvidia-settings
[03:40] <dewdude> ferronica, ok...what's your problem then
[03:40] <ferronica> dewdude: how do i accesss it
[03:40] <dooglus> defrysk: I have that line already, but can't find package 'realplay'
[03:40] <dewdude> oh....that i don't know
[03:40] <dewdude> there should be a tv application
[03:40] <ferronica> dewdude: what application to sue
[03:40] <stefg> admintroy: ssh -X, or set an env-variable DISPLAY=<ip-of-local-machine>:0... depends on how fat the pipe to your server is
[03:40] <admintroy> stefg: I can see the command line of the remote machine, as if i was sitting in front of it, but whenever i try to run the desktop, i get the error /etc/X11/X does not exist
[03:40] <dewdude> i know YEARS ago with my hauppauge tv card...mandrake actually found it during install and installed everything
[03:40] <iesos> Ok, I'll try to figure this nvidia-settings out
[03:40] <iesos> thx
[03:41] <dewdude> ferronica, no idea..i haven't had a tv card in 10 years
[03:41] <stefg> admintroy: log into the remote machine with *ssh -x*
[03:41] <admintroy> stefg: all i want to do is run the gnome desktop
[03:41] <defrysk> dooglus, then download it : wget http://archive.canonical.com/ubuntu/pool/main/r/realplay/realplay_10.0.8-0ubuntu1_i386.deb
[03:41] <dewdude> i actually hadn't tried tv-out yet...i cant get sound working...so i gave up
[03:42] <stefg> admintroy: and all you need to do for that is to get some clue about X forwarding
[03:42] <admintroy> the remote machine isn't really remote....
[03:42] <dooglus> defrysk: it seems the problem is that http://archive.canonical.com/ubuntu/dists/feisty-commercial/main/binary-i386/Packages.gz doesn't reference the .deb file
[03:42] <iesos> Thanks the nvidia-settings worked!
[03:42] <stefg> admintroy: for the network it doesn't matter if it's 50 cm or 100 km
[03:42] <ferronica> what application to use my TV TUNER CARD ???
[03:42] <defrysk> dooglus, not sure how to fix that
[03:42] <admintroy> stefg: i have vnc'd to the base machine, and can see the virtual monitor of the second box
[03:43] <defrysk> dooglus, better to download : http://archive.canonical.com/ubuntu/pool/main/r/realplay/realplay_10.0.8-0ubuntu3_i386.deb , its a later build
[03:43] <Riky> hi all, i just installed Ubuntu 7.04 everything goes well but when i've tried to install beryl it wont start i already install and configure my ATI Mobility Radeon x1400 and works very fine
[03:43] <Riky> any ideas?
[03:44] <admintroy> stefg: have you played much with vmware?
[03:45] <dooglus> ferronica: that would depend on the TV TUNER CARD in question.  some won't work at all in Linux
[03:45] <elekfs> beryl doesnt seem to work well through vnc.  i have a monitor hooked up where i can control the system through the vnc client, but the drawing is not done in vnc and is only displayed on my monitor.  this system normally does not have a monitor hooked up to it.  anyone know of a fix for this?
[03:46] <dooglus> elekfs: yes.  I use:   x11vnc -noxdamage -display :0 -rfbauth ~/.vnc/passwd &
[03:46] <dooglus> elekfs: it's the "-noxdamage" which makes it work with beryl
[03:46] <ArtesMagae> Hello, Everyone. I want to reinstall Ubuntu for a couple of reasons. How should I go about uninstalling it or formatting the disk?
[03:46] <elekfs> dooglus: thanks i will give it a try =]
[03:46] <ferronica> what application to use my TV TUNER CARD ???
[03:46] <stefg> admintroy: a bit... but this is not a question of vmware. if it's a vm inside your box you have to configure xserver-xorg to use the vmware virtual graphics card, so you /do/ run an X-server inside the VM. If the VM is on another box (has no access to your local screen) you need to forward X. options: 1.) ssh -X 2.) vnc 3.) xdmcp  4.) FreeNX
[03:47] <dooglus> ferronica: that would depend on the TV TUNER CARD in question.  some won't work at all in Linux
[03:47] <Ohzie> ArtesMagae: Pop in a livecd and use gpart
[03:47] <ArtesMagae> And then I can reinstall right from the livecd again?
[03:47] <marsoe> 7.04 fails to properly handle my laptop keyboard (but 6.10 - 5.04 all managed it without problems). the keys lag or skip presses
[03:47] <marsoe> any ideas?
[03:48] <Frogzoo> ArtesMagae: & do yourself a favour - create a separate /home partition
[03:48] <admintroy> stefg: the problem is that the machine does not even have x11 on it... there is no X11 directory
[03:49] <ArtesMagae> I have all of Ubuntu on a seperate partition. Make another one just for /home you mean?
[03:49] <ferronica> dooglus; i have Pinnacle
[03:49] <ferronica> dooglus; do i need to do some settings before using it???
[03:49] <stefg> admintroy: that's the default behaviour for a server install, no X installed. so whre does the VM live? inside your box or on another box over the net?
[03:49] <Frogzoo> ArtesMagae: it makes reinstalls & upgrades soooo much easier
[03:50] <ArtesMagae> Thanks for the advice and the tips. Have a good day, Everyone.
[03:50] <elekfs> dooglus: now you use x11vnc instead of the vnc app that comes with ubuntu?
[03:50] <Bradaphraser> hey, I can't seem to get my freaking distribution to upgrade
[03:50] <elekfs> vnc-server*
[03:50] <Bradaphraser> I tried making a CD
[03:50] <giany911> guys i need to make a shortcut to run in a terminal .. how do i do that?
[03:51] <giany911> a shortcut on the desktop
[03:51] <Bradaphraser> and I didn't seem to do that right, either
[03:51] <elekfs> ln -s
[03:51] <Bradaphraser> I took the info and made a data CD
[03:51] <moustafa> Did nobody help me? all my partitions are hidden suddenly , What can I do to get it back again?
[03:51] <Blazinho_> ./install-nothing
[03:51] <Bradaphraser> then when that didn't work, I tried to use update manager
[03:51] <daniane> ola
[03:51] <Bradaphraser> and that didn't work, either
[03:51] <Bradaphraser> hello
[03:51] <dooglus> elekfs: I do.  vino (the one that comes with ubuntu) doesn't work well for me.
[03:52] <admintroy> stefg: i am vnc'd to a box in the city, which runs dapper as a base with vmware installed.  I have a w2k3 server in one vm and debian 3.1(ISPConfig build) in another.  This second one is the one i am trying to get gnome installed onto.  It can't be that hard, as i have a test dapper machine in a vm beside this one, which works perfectly
[03:52] <daniane> #brasil
[03:52] <Shankysv87> i have a problem with my display, i thought i fixed it by getting rid of beryl, however it just happened a minute ago again.
[03:52] <giany911> guys i need to make a shortcut  of an app on the desktop to run in a terminal .. how do i do that?
[03:52] <moustafa> Did nobody help me? all my partitions are hidden suddenly , What can I do to get it back again?
[03:52] <dooglus> ferronica: I don't know, sorry.  I just know that my tv tuner card isn't supported in linux yet.  try googling around for it
[03:54] <dooglus> giany911: right-click the desktop, create launcher, and use command:    xterm -e /usr/bin/mutt     (or whatever you want to run in the terminal)
[03:54] <rankin> hello
[03:54] <moustafa> Help me please , all my partitions are disappear
[03:54] <fuzzyhair> moustafa: like hidden in nautilus?
[03:55] <moustafa> Maybe
[03:55] <dooglus> giany911: oh, I see there's the option of 'run in terminal' in the 'type' field, so you could use that instead
[03:55] <moustafa> I don't know really
[03:55] <Shankysv87> my problem is, when my computer wants to idle, it goes to a logged off look
[03:55] <Shankysv87> however my programs seem to stay running
[03:55] <giany911> aw right thx dooglus :)
[03:55] <moustafa> How can i show them a gain?
[03:55] <fuzzyhair> go to places> computer
[03:55] <dooglus> moustafa: how can you tell the partitions have vanished?  if they had, you wouldn't be able to boot, would you?
[03:56] <moustafa> all i see system partition
[03:56] <moustafa> just it
[03:56] <moustafa> there was two also
[03:56] <dooglus> moustafa: what does     mount | grep 'on / '     show you?
[03:56] <ferronica> dooglus; what application you have tried?
[03:57] <dooglus> ferronica: none.  I couldn't even get ubuntu to see the device
[03:57] <giany911> dooglus: well it starts but closes instantly ( the terminal )
[03:57] <moustafa> I have a floppy disk , it's 15 giga
[03:57] <stefg> admintroy: so this debian install has its own IP, doesn't matter that dapper is used as the host. so you'd have to apt-get install gnome-core (or whatever it's called in debian) and set and env-variable ($DISPLAY) in that debian install to point to your local box. you need an X-server on your local box which will display the desktop of the debian install. i doubt that it's sensile to forward...
[03:57] <stefg> ...a virtual screen on the dapper host via vnc.
[03:57] <moustafa> and also cdrom 15 giga too
[03:57] <moustafa> what is that?
[03:57] <moustafa> Virus?
[03:57] <dooglus> giany911: it'll close when the app finishes.  is it an interactive app?
[03:58] <dooglus> moustafa: you have a 15 gig floppy disk?
[03:58] <fuzzyhair> moustafa: the virus is highly inprobable

[03:58] <moustafa> Oh
[03:58] <rankin> I've got a problem with grub. At the summary of all installation options you can choose to install grub to a different location than (hd0). I've got one S-ATA drive from which I want to boot and on which win and ubuntu are installed. Ubuntu installed grub to my IDE master. What do I have to enter instead of (hd0) in order to install grub to my S-ATA "master"? (sd0)?
[03:58] <moustafa> I download untivirus
[03:58] <moustafa> it doesn't work
[03:58] <hendra11279> hi all i have problem in ubuntu,i've install stellarium but ican't read the text,

[03:59] <Shankysv87> i've been to the ubuntu forums and i see a topic in there that relates to my similar problem, however i can't find a solution, can anybody help me try and work this problem out?
[03:59] <admintroy> stefg: dude.. i think you have it confused..... if i run apt-get install gnome on ym dapper test vm, it installs and runs the desktop without a problem, without the need to configure x-server diversions...
[03:59] <AlexSeif> Hi all
[03:59] <dooglus> Shankysv87: what problem?
[03:59] <fuzzyhair> shankysv87: just say it
[03:59] <admintroy> stefg: thanks anyway, but i'll do some more research
[04:00] <stefg> admintroy: can i have a drawing, please? :-)
[04:00] <Shankysv87> my computer seems to go to a logged out state if it idles, or when my computer goes under graphics use
[04:00] <Shankysv87> heavy graphics use
[04:00] <Shankysv87> like, if i go to screensavers sometimes it will just log out acting like it can't handle it
[04:01] <fuzzyhair> Whenever I set my computer to hibernate the screen just goes black. It hibernated once, but hasn't again. This has been a problem in feisty for me, because it has worked fine in previous versions. Any idea how to fix it/.
[04:01] <dooglus> hendra11279: press '1' to get to the config screen, and select a lower resolution?  that should make the text bigger.

[04:06] <snoops> Hi, I'm wanting to use ubuntu full time as my primary work os, but there are still a few windows applications I want to use..they're mostly audio/visual applications - latest skype with video (no video in linux version), adobe cs3 products, which don't run in wine, plus a couple of games. I've been looking into XEN and other virtualization methods, and wondering if I could get some advice on that direction
[04:06] <seven_> ok thz
[04:06] <CraZy675> ok great
[04:06] <seven_> hola
[04:06] <snoops> what I'd like to do is use ubuntu as primary, and have say xp running as a host os, but virtualized, giving full benefits to all its options..
[04:06] <Mortuis> How do I tell what version of ubuntu is on a computer with the command line?
[04:06] <seven_> hola
[04:06] <PriceChild> snoops, my advice is that you "have" to rely on proprietory applications like that then stick with windows
[04:07] <PriceChild> seven_, /join #ubuntu-es
[04:07] <stefg> !version | Mortuis
[04:07] <Mortuis> Thanks stefg
[04:07] <ozfinngeek> sorry to bug you guys but I am looking for some help with feisty on a toshiba laptop
[04:07] <PriceChild> snoops, if you are willing to consider alternatives... such as ekiga for video chat or the gimp for images then try those out.
[04:07] <ubotu> Mortuis: To find out what version of Ubuntu you have, type  lsb_release -a  in a !shell
[04:07] <seven_> ok thz, gracias
[04:07] <calc> ozfinngeek: which one and what problem?
[04:07] <stefg> !test

[04:07] <Blazinho_> can someone tell me what XP is ?
[04:08] <PriceChild> !windows | Blazinho_
[04:08] <ubotu> Blazinho_: For help with Microsoft Windows, please visit ##windows or your nearest mental health institute. See http://launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/+bug/1 http://linux.oneandoneis2.org/LNW.htm and !equivalents
[04:08] <snoops> yep, I realise I can't quite rid myself of windows just yet.. I don't use photoshop cs3. I do a lot of flash development, so require that to work.. But it looks like VT is definitely an option
[04:08] <PriceChild> !equivalents | snoops
[04:08] <ubotu> snoops: A comprehensive list of of Windows-equivalent applications in Linux can be found at http://www.linuxrsp.ru/win-lin-soft/table-eng.html and https://wiki.ubuntu.com/WhatWindowsUsersWant
[04:08] <snoops> and I'd love to use it, but just looking for advice on the subject
[04:08] <PriceChild> snoops, we don't ahve any flash writing apps on linux afaik
[04:09] <snoops> there's quite a few hypervisors
[04:09] <PriceChild> snoops, my advice is just look for equivalent applications, see if they work for you
[04:09] <ozfinngeek> the keyboard does not work very well, case is opposite, even in recovery and will not work at all in grub. makes it really hard to log in
[04:09] <moustafa> What is the defaults of ( Removable Drivers & Media Preferences ) in Strong page?
[04:09] <sirbooboo> Is there a DVD version of Ubuntu 7.04?
[04:09] <calc> snoops: vmware is the most well known vm
[04:09] <snoops> sigh..but that's not what I'm asking
[04:09] <PriceChild> snoops, I don't see the point in you running ubuntu to then virtualise windows and do all your work in there as you'll get worse performance
[04:09] <cdehaan> Hello! I just installed Ubuntu 6.06 LTS Server, and am trying to configure my network. With DHCP all is fine, but I need to assign a static IP. When I make the "appropriate" (or what I think are) changes to /etc/network/interfaces and /etc/resolv.conf, I can access my LAN but not get out to the internet (either by pinging an internet IP or domain)
[04:09] <snoops> I don't mind some worse performance you see
[04:10] <snoops> there is a good portion of linux applications I adore using
[04:10] <marsoe> ozfinngeek; i have the same issue
[04:10] <moustafa> please nobody help me!
[04:10] <SlimeyPete> cdehaan: did you add a gateway to interfaces?
[04:10] <moustafa> What is the defaults of ( Removable Drivers & Media Preferences ) in Strong page?
[04:10] <Frogzoo> cdehaan: you need GATEWAY
[04:10] <SlimeyPete> eg "Gateway <IP_ADDRESS>" on the end of the specification for your interface
[04:10] <Blazinho_> hoest weer in holland ?
[04:10] <ozfinngeek> i would dkpg configure the console but - becomes _
[04:10] <sirbooboo> Is there a DVD version of Ubuntu 7.04 image availablle for download?
[04:10] <Frogzoo> cdehaan: lower case 'gateway'
[04:10] <ShinSR71> gaat wel
[04:11] <vortik> snoops: you can download a dev copy of vmware server and run it locally.  Set up a Windows VMWare session... config your network (NAT maybe?) then off you go :)
[04:11] <Frogzoo> sirbooboo: yes, and I rec'd you get it via torrent
[04:11] <snoops> yeah I haven't done much with vmware calc, but think qemu, xen would be better suited?
[04:11] <moustafa> What is the defaults of ( Removable Drivers & Media Preferences ) in Strong page?
[04:11] <cdehaan> SlimeyPete: I do have gateway specified. I suppose it could be wrong... if I already have a system up and connected to the net, how would I check it's gateway?
[04:11] <gilo1> anyone know of a GUI for IPSec?
[04:12] <sirbooboo> frogzoo: how about ftp or http?

[04:12] <AlexSeif> I installed it but I don't think Apache2 can access mysql (i have to php in shell)
[04:12] <sirbooboo> not a torrent kind of person
[04:12] <marsoe> sirbooboo; http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/downloadmirrors   bottom of page
[04:12] <sirbooboo> marsoe: ty
[04:13] <SlimeyPete> cdehaan: erm, I'm not actually sure tbh. You could look in its interfaces file.
[04:13] <ozfinngeek> only the arrow keys, bizarre. sorry my experience is in ms-win and have recently moved to ubuntu on a desktop built to work
[04:13] <Frogzoo> cdehaan: pastebin your interfaces file
[04:13] <cdehaan> SlimeyPete: It's Fedora, so there's no interfaces file (or I can't find it)
[04:13] <calc> ozfinngeek: you may need to see if there are any bios upgrades available for your model and try upgrading to newer bios
[04:13] <calc> ozfinngeek: by any chance are you running ubuntu amd64?
[04:13] <cdehaan> Frogzoo: One moment
[04:13] <vortik> cdehaan: Fedora interface files are in /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts
[04:13] <Frogzoo> cdehaan: fedora? well what are you doing here?
[04:14] <SlimeyPete> Frogzoo: he has an ubuntu box too
[04:14] <ozfinngeek> should have though of that, I have googled my brains out over it. no laptop is i386
[04:14] <mribas> hola

[04:14] <sirbooboo> marsoe: not seeing the DVD version
[04:14] <AnRkey> sirbooboo, what don't you use torrents?
[04:14] <cdehaan> Frogzoo: setting up a new Ubuntu system... I just have one that's working that's Fedora.
[04:14] <calc> ozfinngeek: oh hmm, i had a weird keyboard issue when trying to use amd64 a few years back on a laptop, but i386 should work, thats odd

[04:15] <calc> ozfinngeek: there are bios updates available for the A3, not sure if it will help you, but worth a shot
[04:15] <ozfinngeek> well, it is a piece of crud, non-standard secondary kb port and no cd boot w/o the stupid bios on hdd
[04:15] <Frogzoo> !php
[04:15] <ubotu> LAMP is an acronym for Linux-Apache-MySQL-PHP. However, the term is often used for setups using alternative but different software, such as Perl or Python instead of PHP, and Postgres instead of MySQL. For help with setting up LAMP on Ubuntu, see  https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ApacheMySQLPHP - See also the Server CD installation process (different in Edgy+)
[04:16] <yourfriend> it says its not there. do I need to just get it from php.net?
[04:16] <sirbooboo> marsoe: on that first page, or after selecting server?
[04:16] <Frogzoo> cdehaan: pastebin?
[04:16] <marsoe> sirbooboo; try http://www.mirrorservice.org/sites/cdimage.ubuntu.com/cdimage/releases/feisty/release/
[04:17] <moustafa> did nobody can help me? my xmms doesn't open any mp3 files.
[04:17] <philth> yourfriend, apt-get install php4
[04:17] <yourfriend> philth >> it says its not there
[04:17] <marsoe> moustafa; do you have mp3 codecs?
[04:17] <philth> yourfriend, apt-get update
[04:17] <ozfinngeek> any idea how I pull my bios version no

[04:18] <philth> yourfriend, it's there for me, I'm running 6.10. Have you tryed adding universe to sources.list?
[04:18] <moustafa> no
[04:18] <marsoe> try exaile or something
[04:18] <ozfinngeek> duh, oops, maybe I should read the screen
[04:18] <vortik> ozfinngeek: try dmidecode
[04:18] <calc> ozfinngeek: which version does it have?
[04:18] <fuzzyhair> i just installed phpmyadmin. How do I make a username and password?
[04:18] <ozfinngeek> v2.80
[04:18] <yourfriend> philth >> universe to which one?
[04:19] <calc> ozfinngeek: oh :( i think that is the latest version
[04:19] <matux> i can't connect with apt-get update, it returns conection refused
[04:19] <yourfriend> philth >> ive got 7.04 where do I add universe?
[04:19] <ozfinngeek> I am going to try reset bios to default, not that there is much in the bios anyway
[04:20] <Frogzoo> cdehaan: looks good, you might like to add 'auto eth0'
[04:20] <amishjim> fuzzy - http://phpmyadmin.net/documentation/ it's right down the page 3/4 of the way
[04:20] <cdehaan> Frogzoo: Oops, missed that, but it's there :)
[04:20] <matux> i can't connect with apt-get update, it returns conection refused, that is happening since I upgrade to 7.04
[04:20] <marsoe> ozfinngeek; calc; yeah, keyboard problem isn't bios related
[04:20] <fuzzyhair> amishjim; thanks!
[04:20] <amishjim> good luck
[04:21] <Frogzoo> cdehaan: also 'network <IP_ADDRESS>'
[04:21] <philth> yourfriend, I think it's deb http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ but I don't know how to tell. Synaptic shows it as being in universe.

[04:21] <StFS> hello... has anybody heard about some problems with firefox on feisty? I'm experiencing hangs every time I open a new tab or window... the weird thing is that this doesn't seem to happen when a tab is opened by middle clicking on a link though
[04:21] <calc> ozfinngeek: looks like toshiba supports linux on the A3 so its odd it doesn't work for you
[04:21] <philth> yourfriend, But I have the debian repos and a bunch of others, so I'm not sure
[04:21] <matux> i can't connect with apt-get update, it returns conection refused, that is happening since I upgrade to 7.04

[04:22] <ozfinngeek> bios reset seems to have worked so far
[04:22] <calc> ozfinngeek: cool
[04:22] <Pici> matux: No need to repeat.  Can you pastebin the contents of your /etc/apt/sources.list ?
[04:22] <ozfinngeek> checking the link
[04:22] <Pici> !pastebin | matux
[04:22] <ubotu> matux: pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the #ubuntu channel topic)
[04:22] <cdehaan> Frogzoo: I am going to see if there are any VMWare issues with this, as I'm actually test deploying within a VMWare machine, but I've never had strangeness before.

[04:26] <markymarkus> hello folks
[04:26] <markymarkus> is there any GUI utility to create RPM files?
[04:26] <Pici> matux: You need to change all the instances of 'edgy' in that file to 'feisty'
[04:26] <calc> ozfinngeek: oh that is very odd, maybe should ask on ubuntuforums and see if anyone else has your model that knows how to fix that issue
[04:26] <dgt84> moustafa, there is no Strong page...
[04:26] <Dr_willis> markymarkus,  ubuntu uses debs so i doubt if any are in the repos. try a 'apt-cache search rpm' perhaps.
[04:26] <defrysk> markymarkus, might be a good idea to make rpms in an rpm based distro ?
[04:27] <Pici> matux: You'll need to use sudo, so `sudo pico /etc/apt/sources.list`
[04:27] <markymarkus> no
[04:27] <markymarkus> right.
[04:27] <ozfinngeek> at least the touchpad works, and to make matters worse I did not do the original install
[04:27] <marsoe> ozfinngeek, see http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=412553   it is the same problem?
[04:27] <Dr_willis> markymarkus,  ive belive its possible to compile/make rpms - but no gui tool that i know of.
[04:27] <matux> can i use, gedit
[04:27] <markymarkus> do you guys know of an e-mail client that supports exchange 5.5?
[04:27] <woot> checking for X... configure: error: Can't find X includes. Please check your installation and add the correct paths!?
[04:27] <vortik> markymarkus: full exchange integration?
[04:27] <stojance> How do I convert a flv file to a .mpg file?
[04:28] <cdehaan> Frogzoo: oddly enough, the DHCP-gleaned settings seem to match exactly what I have in network
[04:28] <markymarkus> vortik: no, just exchange integration
[04:28] <magnetron> stojance: you need to install a tool called ffmpeg
[04:28] <cdehaan> Frogzoo: rather, in interfaces
[04:28] <stojance> magnetron: I have it... then
[04:28] <defrysk> stojance, with ffmpeg perhaps ?
[04:28] <vortik> stojance: ffmpeg will do it for you.. don't know the exact command, but google for "flv to mpg ffmeg"
[04:28] <vortik> s/ffmeg/ffmpeg
[04:28] <magnetron> gtg stojance
[04:28] <Pici> matux: You can, but you'll need to run it as root using gksudo
[04:28] <vortik> markymarkus: explain, please
[04:28] <philth> yourfriend, http://pastebin.ca/561529 <-- thats my sources.list
[04:29] <stojance> thanks all
[04:29] <matux> ok, thanks
[04:29] <Frogzoo> cdehaan: I'd say the problem is at the other end, in the vmware networking
[04:29] <Frogzoo> cdehaan: I could be wrong
[04:29] <ward_> how can i get rid of the new kernel and keep the old one to update again? my new kernel doesnt work anymore after updating the old one
[04:29] <carlhempel> Does anyone know how to solve problems with VMware being horribly slow? Its not the hardware on the memory allocation .. it appears to be a known issue ...
[04:29] <calc> marsoe: he mentioned that even grub had keyboard issues, which is fairly odd
[04:29] <cdehaan> Frogzoo: Ok, I'll look into it. I mean, I'd think that if I had the same settings it'd work, but maybe VMWare has weirdness with liking DHCP or something. It's perfectly possible.
[04:29] <cdehaan> Frogzoo: Thanks for all of your help!
[04:30] <woot> ward_:  synaptic and do locate menu.lst after updatedb
[04:30] <cdehaan> exit
[04:30] <ward_> woot, huh?
[04:30] <calc> marsoe: hmm scrolling down in that thread apparently there are things you do to grub to try to help it, hmm
[04:30] <ward_> woot, i jsut want to get rid of the new kernel, it doesnt work anymore
[04:30] <woot> ward_: grub controls which kernel loads and synaptic is gui to pick packages
[04:31] <Frogzoo> carlhempel: first make sure you've given vmware at least 350meg
[04:31] <marsoe> tried that; didn't help
[04:31] <ward_> woot, i know, i choose the old kernel in GRUB because the new wont work
[04:31] <carlhempel> Frogzoo: It has 384MB
[04:31] <benmayim> When I run the Ubuntu 7.04 live DVD I only get 800x600 screen resolution and when I go to change it, it is the highest choice I have. I have nvidia and should be able to get higher resolution. If I actually install Ubuntu will I have the same problem, or is the 800x600 resolution just a limitation of the live dvd?
[04:31] <Frogzoo> carlhempel: you swapping heavily atm?
[04:31] <ward_> woot, but i don't understand what u mean at all
[04:31] <carlhempel> Frogzoo: nope
[04:31] <woot> ward_: everything you customized and installed for the old must be done again to the new
[04:31] <ward_> woot, it worked before
[04:32] <Frogzoo> carlhempel: kk, dunno, should only be 1/2 speed, no worse
[04:32] <woot> ward_: use synaptic to remove kernel you don't want
[04:32] <carlhempel> Frogzoo: a lot of people are having this problem ... For instance, the system clock in the guest os is about 5 times slower than the real thing
[04:32] <FlimFlamMan> does anyone know of a secure command-line password manager?  ie a place where i can keep my passwords encrypted and access them via a terminal?
[04:32] <ward_> woot, aaaaaaaaaaaaaaah now i get it :-)
[04:32] <DgrMouse> how do i change the date on my install?
[04:32] <SinLuZ> hey any1 care 2 help? when i installed Ubuntu i picked the wired ethernetport to be the main and now i want my wireless card 2 be the main card how do i pickwhich one is primary?
[04:32] <ward_> woot, after i do that, i'm able to boot the old kernel and i can do the kernel update again?
[04:32] <carlhempel> Frogzoo: there is a fix to make it "fast" by changing the "max_cstate" but that is unacceptable because it makes the system clock 10 times faster ...
[04:33] <Shankysv87> how do i switch screensavers or disable it via terminal?
[04:33] <DgrMouse> how do i change the date?
[04:33] <woot> ward_:....why update? you said you wanted the old kernel, if new kernel is missing drivers and stuff you setup for old then set them up for the new kernel
[04:33] <cdehaan> Frogzoo: Looks like it was a silly IP conflict -- something has an IP on our network it's not supposed to
[04:33] <DgrMouse> or how can i set the date to update from an ntp server?
[04:33] <ward_> woot, the new one worked perfectly after the update...
[04:33] <vortik> DgrMouse: check out the man page for xscreensaver
[04:33] <ward_> woot, it just got screwed up
[04:33] <Frogzoo> DgrMouse: right click gnome clock
[04:33] <benmayim> can anyone help me?
[04:34] <woot> ward_: what error?
[04:34] <ward_> woot, so now i wanna delete the new one, and update the old one so i have the new one again
[04:34] <Frogzoo> Shankysv87: sys -> prefs -> ss
[04:34] <DgrMouse> Frogzoo.. no gnome desktop.. ssh into the box
[04:34] <woot> ward_: you are NOT using the *new* kernel until you reboot
[04:34] <ward_> woot, i was using the new kernel for ages !
[04:34] <Shankysv87> Frogzoo, i need to do it via terminal
[04:34] <ward_> woot, i didnt just update
[04:34] <ward_> woot, i updated other stuff from the old kernel
[04:35] <ward_> woot, then rebooted but started the new kernel accidentally
[04:35] <c1|freaky> how can i install a console font which is allready in /usr/share/consolefonts ? im trying to get the matrix console font working for cmatrix :\
[04:35] <ward_> woot, then i rebooted again to the old one
[04:35] <woot> ward_: why not just reinstall the new kernel?
[04:35] <DgrMouse> when i type 'date' it gives me a date of 2008
[04:35] <ward_> then i thought: ok now i can start the new one without problems
[04:35] <woot> hey what is apt-get command to reinstall a package?
[04:35] <ward_> woot, is that possible trough synaptic too?
[04:35] <ozfinngeek> is there anyway to change the keymap used in the boot lines in grub
[04:35] <c1|freaky> woot: apt-get install --reinstall
[04:35] <Frogzoo> DgrMouse: /etc/default/ntpdate
[04:35] <woot> ward_: nope through that command though ^
[04:35] <drama1981> im new to linux and after becoming feed up with fedora i was steered here however i have a few questions
[04:36] <DgrMouse> Frogzoo: thks
[04:36] <ward_> lol i think its the same as rightclick -> reinstall
[04:36] <ward_> woot
[04:36] <Dr_willis> drama1981,  ask away!
[04:36] <woot> ward_: apt-get install linux-kernel-2.6.20-15 --reinstall
[04:36] <Frogzoo> DgrMouse: oops, actually: /etc/ntp.conf
[04:36] <drama1981> is the 2.6.21 kernal implemented in feisty fawn? i ask this because i need that kernal or else i have to leave dma disabled
[04:36] <ward_> woot, that would be 2.6.20-16
[04:37] <greyfrog> drama1981, 2.6.20
[04:37] <defrysk> drama1981, nope
[04:37] <c1|freaky> drama1981: yes
[04:37] <vortik> turn off ntpd, then ntpdate time.nist.gov as root, then turn ntpd on again
[04:37] <DgrMouse> Frogzoo: nowq how do i tell it to go check and update to correct date and time?
[04:37] <woot> ward_: oh yeah forgot which I was on
[04:37] <greyfrog> drama1981, 2.6.20 with ubuntu patches
[04:37] <drama1981> ok
[04:37] <c1|freaky> i think its even 2.6.22 ?
[04:37] <Shankysv87> is there a way to set the screensaver via terminal
[04:37] <woot> DgrMouse: ntp
[04:37] <markymarkus> I have installed Ubuntu 7.07 Alternative can i install KDE on it rather than use gnome?
[04:37] <defrysk> c1|freaky, nope thats the monkey version
[04:38] <Frogzoo> DgrMouse: installing ntpdate should do it
[04:38] <drama1981> can anyone confirm it works fine with the ati rs480.482 chipsets (xpress 200)
[04:38] <woot> Shankysv87:  umm type xscreensaver?
[04:38] <woot> Shankysv87: no that doesn't work..
[04:38] <defrysk> drama1981, run the live cd and check it out
[04:38] <Shankysv87> well.. that would start the screensaver program.. i can't do that.. my graphics card can't hand what it is set on and becomes unstable.
[04:38] <benmayim> my feisty fawn live cd won't let me have greater than 800x600. If I actually install instead of running off the live cd will this give me more resolution?
[04:38] <amias> Shankysv87, try having a look at  ~/.xscreensaver
[04:39] <ward_> woot, it cant find that package when i boot the old kernel
[04:39] <amias> benmayim, sounds like your monitor  or your graphics card memory are not being detected properly
[04:39] <ward_> i'm kindof pissed off that a simple automatic update screwed my system
[04:39] <Shankysv87> amias, doesn't work
[04:39] <defcons> hello
[04:40] <defcons> how do I find which device a connected usb drive corresponds to?
[04:40] <amias> Shankysv87, its a text file , edit it
[04:40] <DgrMouse> Frogzoo: how do i tell it to go check and update to correct date and time?
[04:40] <benmayim> amias, is that because it's live cd or will that happen if I actually install?
[04:40] <Shankysv87> ok...brb.
[04:40] <defrysk> ward_, you had automatix installed ?
[04:40] <amias> benmayim, shouldn't be much of a difference but you get more oportunity to hack it once installed
[04:40] <stojance> How can I convert flv to wmv?
[04:40] <wykis> Hello, I am trying to install Ubuntu on a USB Flash drive. I had made it all with debootstrap. It worked fine, I have installed the kernel and it loads the kernel etc. But when the system starts executing, there are some kinit errors and notably - and there are errors like 'modprobe: not found', but I checked that it is in the system. Can someone help me figure this out? (Oh, the USB loading is very sloooow!)
[04:41] <ward_> defrysk, no just the updates that come up automatically and then you choose to update or to wait
[04:41] <wykis> stojance: there are no wmv encoders available on linux
[04:41] <Shankysv87> i can't find it
[04:41] <defrysk> ward_, ok
[04:41] <stojance> wykis: thanks
[04:41] <Frogzoo> DgrMouse: sudo ntpdate ntp.server.xxx
[04:41] <defcons> anyone?
[04:41] <benmayim> ok, I will try to install it and hope I can get my nvidia card recognized.
[04:41] <wykis> stojance: better, convert to OGG or something. there is ffmpeg2theora which should do the job
[04:41] <ward_> defrysk, automatic might be the wrong word but its allmost automatic
[04:41] <ozfinngeek> bye
[04:41] <babo> guys, I need Sun Java 1.5. It's not in the repo. Where can I get it ?
[04:41] <amias> Shankysv87,  open a shell and do     ls -la  | grep screen
[04:41] <Frogzoo> !java | babo
[04:41] <ubotu> babo: To install a Java compiler/interpreter on Ubuntu, look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Java - For the Sun Java runtime install sun-java5-jre from the !Multiverse repository. Enable the backports repository on Edgy to install sun-java6-jre
[04:41] <wykis> stojance: it is as simple as writing 'ffmpeg2theora file.flv'
[04:41] <cdehaan> exit
[04:42] <ward_> how can i get rid of my new kernel if i can't boot it please?
[04:42] <smcgraw> i got updates in feisty yesterday and restarted my machine and was unable to logon, get message "unable to write to authorization file", any ideas?
[04:42] <stojance> wykis: I know... I am using Ogg, but I need this for my Windows Mobile device... the stupid Windows Mobile Media can only play WMV
[04:42] <ward_> omfg another person with update trouble...
[04:42] <wykis> stojance: you could try getting Windows Media Encoder running in WinE or something, that might work
[04:43] <wykis> just look for it in google, stojance, you should find it
[04:43] <DgrMouse> Frogzoo: its all good now.. my server isn't 18 months ahead of itself :)
[04:43] <stojance> wykis: k, thanks
[04:43] <tuxcrafter> how do i mount a movie.iso without using sudo rights (mount command)
[04:43] <Shankysv87> amias, you mean open terminal right?
[04:43] <amias> since when as the update feature started upgrading kernels without telling me ? i wouldn't mind but it could at least build the deps so it works
[04:43] <drama1981> how does ubuntu differ from fc?
[04:43] <smcgraw> i haven't had problems with updates before this
[04:43] <amias> Shankysv87, yes
[04:44] <dfear> error "device 3:2 too small for target" and "pvs -o +dev_size" prints incorrect dev_size, how do i fix this

[04:44] <Zenji> AVI Running: HowTo please?
[04:44] <VoX> drama1981: uh, alot
[04:44] <amias> Shankysv87, files that begin with a . are usually hidden from normal views
[04:44] <VoX> drama1981: fc is based on redhat, ubuntu is based on debian
[04:44] <Shankysv87> ok...
[04:44] <Frogzoo> DgrMouse: cool
[04:44] <amias> Shankysv87, cat .xscreensaver
[04:44] <wykis> tuxcrafter: sudo mount -o loop -t iso9660 my-file.iso /media/destination
[04:44] <phantam1> hey guys
[04:44] <Zenji> Hi
[04:44] <wishie> VoX: the correct answer is...ubuntu doesnt suck.
[04:44] <TitanP4> I wonder if your settings in Update manager got screwed up some how a check here a check there
[04:44] <Zenji> Ok, Im trying to get AVI working. Any idea how to do this?
[04:45] <phantam1> my audio card died... and i want to switch to the onboard vida
[04:45] <phantam1> via
[04:45] <drama1981> VoX have any links to guides and such to ease the transition
[04:45] <phantam1> but i cant figure out how
[04:45] <calc> VoX: redhat is based on fc actually ;)
[04:45] <Shankysv87> cammand not found
[04:45] <TitanP4> I keep reading about Automatix wonder if that would screw up updates
[04:45] <Pici> !automatix | TitanP4
[04:45] <wykis> Zenji: go to terminal, and do 'sudo apt-get install vlc w32codecs mplayer'
[04:45] <ubotu> TitanP4: Automatix2 is a script that tries to install some software, and often fails and breaks systems. We don't provide support for it, and we strongly discourage its use. Problems caused by Automatix are often hard to track and solve, and it might sometimes be easier to !install a fresh copy of Ubuntu. See also !WorksForMe
[04:45] <calc> VoX: or at least used to be, if you are referring to RHEL
[04:45] <defcons> how do I find which device a connected usb drive corresponds to?
[04:45] <snoops> drama1981 visually, fedora uses KDE, and ubuntu uses gnome..if you like KDE you have the option of using kubuntu
[04:45] <wykis> Zenji: and then do in the terminal, 'vlc my-file.avi', if it doesn't work, then ask. Try 'mplayer my-file.avi' too
[04:45] <amias> Shankysv87, you don't have cat ?  is your box broken or something ?
[04:45] <defcons> bloody hell
[04:45] <defcons> am I on ignore to everyone?
[04:45] <VoX> drama1981: well you cant really transition from fc to ubuntu.. they're entirely different
[04:45] <tuxcrafter> wykis: i want to do it without the sudo rights like i sad in my question
[04:45] <Shankysv87> apparently
[04:45] <digisnail> hello!
[04:46] <ewathington> i've never had any problems with Automatix2.  i use it on 2 ubuntu machines (one desktop and one laptop)
[04:46] <amias> defcons, you will be if you demand help like that
[04:46] <wykis> Zenji: if mplayer one doesn't work, then copy the actual output into a pastebin or something, would be more helpful
[04:46] <defcons> amias, I ask a simple question
[04:46] <TitanP4> Yes synaptic has more software than I need anyhow
[04:46] <defcons> and people are talking about bloody cats
[04:46] <Shankysv87> i put the period in.. thats why it didn't work
[04:46] <tuxcrafter> how do i mount a movie.iso without using sudo rights (so not probably not the mount command)
[04:46] <wykis> oh sorry tuxcrafter; sorry, I'm looking now

[04:47] <Pici> defcons: try using lsusb
[04:47] <defcons> greyfrog, cats
[04:47] <Shankysv87> however, when i subtracted the period, it said no such file or directory
[04:47] <defcons> Pici, it doesn't tell me the dev name
[04:47] <wykis> tuxcrafter: do you have access to root, still?
[04:47] <amias> defcons, taking the piss out of the people you want to give you help is clever why ?
[04:47] <Filthpig> can I somehow play encrypted wmv-files with totem?
[04:47] <zbrown> What's the equivalent of inittab in Ubuntu?
[04:47] <wykis> tuxcrafter: you can edit the user permissions, and select that user should be allowed to mount anything
[04:47] <defcons> amias, stfu
[04:47] <zbrown> there's no /etc/inittab and I'dl ike to edit it

[04:52] <alain> can any one help.. i cant install php5 for ubuntu breezy :((
[04:52] <Pici> alain: pgp5 is in the Breezy repositories.
[04:52] <wykis> nixnoob: CPU frequency? It's all in your BIOS, isn't it?
[04:52] <Dr_willis> nixnoob,  on my laptop there was some applets that handled that.  But its not here at the moment so i cant checkit.
[04:52] <Pici> alain: php rather.
[04:52] <calc> nixnoob: you can change it in /sys/devices/system/cpu/*
[04:52] <Zenji> wykis: libdvdnav: Using dvdnav version 0.1.10 from http://dvd.sf.net
[04:52] <calc> nixnoob: at least i think you can change it in there
[04:52] <VoX> nixnoob: it has to be enabled in bios, then you need a freq scale manager. open Synaptic and search for "cpu freq"
[04:53] <calc> nixnoob: eg cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_max_freq
[04:53] <calc> nixnoob: i think you can write what you want into that for max, but i am not certain
[04:53] <nixnoob> calc, it has the correct value
[04:53] <alain> Pici: im not running breezy 5.10.. i tried updating but it fails
[04:54] <Zenji> wykis it says: libdvdnav: Using dvdnav version 0.1.10 from http://dvd.sf.net, libdvdread: Using libdvdcss version 1.2.9 for DVD access, libdvdnav: vm: faild to open/read the DVD
[04:54] <Pici> alain: What are you running then?
[04:54] <nixnoob> calc, the problem is that ubuntu always scales i down even when the notebook is plugged in
[04:54] <calc> nixnoob: you can set min setting to be the max one i think
[04:54] <alain> i guess this is the older breezy dist
[04:54] <VoX> nixnoob: do what i suggested
[04:54] <calc> nixnoob: then it won't scale down, scaling doesn't hurt anything afaik, even windows does it
[04:55] <VoX> nixnoob: that way you can alter it as you please
[04:55] <nixnoob> calc, yes i know but it doesnt scale up when the usage goes up

[05:00] <tim168> what is the absolute minimum requirement to run ubuntu? will it work on an old 120mHz Pentium ?
[05:00] <Ohzie> woot: I have a 3500+ that's running at like 2200MHz. I don't think that's a good example.
[05:00] <Sh3r1ff> alain: tried installing apache2-mpm-prefork?
[05:00] <Ohzie> tim168: It will run really badly.
[05:00] <woot> Ohzie: ok yeah it doubled.. was just scared since it was so low then, I thought bios might have some feature conflict with cpu daemon
[05:00] <alain> nope.. how ???
[05:00] <calc> tim168: probably minimum you will hit will be ram first
[05:00] <calc> tim168: to do the graphical install you need 256MB/ram
[05:01] <BTB_Johan> calc: thanks I will check it out
[05:01] <alain> Sh3r1ff,  how to install that
[05:01] <Ohzie> tim168: Also guis won't run so well.
[05:01] <Sh3r1ff> alain: sudo apt-get install apache2-mpm-prefork
[05:01] <calc> tim168: the alternate install needs less, but i don't recall how much

[05:03] <WeeJeWel> change the size eh
[05:03] <tim168> ok thanks, so i guess its not interesting to pick up this old computer and install ubuntu on it, maybe the reasonable minimum is a PIII with 256 ram, something like that ?
[05:03] <fernandez> ola

[05:26] <ubotu> fuzzyhair: LAMP is an acronym for Linux-Apache-MySQL-PHP. However, the term is often used for setups using alternative but different software, such as Perl or Python instead of PHP, and Postgres instead of MySQL. For help with setting up LAMP on Ubuntu, see  https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ApacheMySQLPHP - See also the Server CD installation process (different in Edgy+)

[05:33] <Frogzoo> Arrick: soz
[05:33] <sapumal> hi, I am connecting to office VPN using windows Cisco VPN client. I want to do the same in Ubuntu. How to do that.
[05:33] <Zenji> Let me see.
[05:33] <towerniece> sapumal: Ever heard of the question mark, mofo?
[05:33] <VoX> Zenji: if you go to, say, youtube, do you get sound through firefox?
[05:33] <preaction> neverblue4: crc = cyclic redundancy check. it means (most likely) your CD is bad, or your CD-ROM drive is dying
[05:33] <ArtesMagae> Thanks again, Frogzoo.
[05:34] <neverblue4> preaction: that has nothing to do with it :)
[05:34] <void^> sapumal: use vpnc or cisco's vpn client
[05:34] <sapumal> I think cisco vpn client is not a free software. So I dont have it.
[05:34] <Zenji> VoX its working now.
[05:34] <Zenji> But thats because I had firefox open first.
[05:35] <Zenji> Its the same with most things.
[05:35] <ewathington> vpnc worked like a charm on my ubuntu box...
[05:35] <VoX> Zenji: so it's only with limewire?
[05:35] <Zenji> If I play Zsnes Emulator and I shut that emulator off, I still dont have sound on anything else.
[05:35] <Arrick> sapumal isnt there a VMN client in ubuntu?
[05:35] <Arrick> you can connect to cisco with any client
[05:35] <Pirate_Hunter> can someone tell me if they can connect to archive.ubuntu.com cause for the heck of me any package I download that needs to connect to that address hangs and fails
[05:35] <DBlue> Hello, i have problem with my printer "Canon ip500 pixma", in OpenOffice i sent 3 printer jobs, and still it didn't print a thing, i tried test page, but still it doesn't function. Now how to fix the driver?
[05:35] <towerniece> "CDs require at least 256 MB of RAM." <-- Why would CDs require memory? What do they mean by this?
[05:35] <Zenji> VoX: No its anything. If I play XMMS I cant hear sound on my emulator. Even when I turn the one using the sound off.
[05:35] <Arrick> towerniece liveCD
[05:36] <Arrick> it requires that much to run the LiveCD
[05:36] <towerniece> The sentence is very unclear.
[05:36] <preaction> neverblue4: is SMART enabled on your HD?
[05:36] <VoX> Zenji: are your various programs set to use ALSA or OSS?
[05:36] <Zenji> VoX: I have no idea.
[05:36] <neverblue4> no idea if its enabled, is that in the BIOS settings?
[05:36] <Zenji> VoX: I think ALSA. I am new at Ubuntu.
[05:36] <frojnd> hello there does ubuntu has any game for two player?
[05:36] <preaction> neverblue4: most likely
[05:36] <frojnd> like bomberman or smth
[05:36] <Zenji> VoX: Whatever its set with from installation.
[05:37] <fxfitz> Is anyone here familiar with MythTV?
[05:37] <DBlue>  Hello, my printer!
[05:37] <Zenji> fxfitz, no its a myth. JK.
[05:37] <frojnd> hello there, does ubuntu has any game for two players to play agains each other?
[05:37] <Sh3r1ff> frojnd: frozen bubble ;)
[05:37] <VoX> Zenji: hm thats very strange. what sound card?
[05:37] <DBlue> Atlantic
[05:37] <fxfitz> :(
[05:37] <Zenji> Uh SigmaAudio
[05:37] <VoX> fxfitz: kind-of.. whats the trouble?
[05:38] <neverblue4> preaction: do you know of any tools though?
[05:38] <VoX> Zenji: ah.
[05:38] <Zenji> VoX: I literally have to like log out of restart the computer.
[05:38] <DBlue> VoX, can you help with the printer?
[05:38] <Zenji> Or*
[05:38] <fxfitz> VoX, I want to be able to rip DVD's with it, but I can't figure out how to get it to work.
[05:38] <Zenji> VoX isnt there a way to like kill sound on all channels?
[05:38] <Zenji> A command I can enter in command line?
[05:38] <VoX> Zenji: that is a limitation with the soundcard in question i would say. is it on-board sound?
[05:39] <Zenji> That would be easier than restarting.
[05:39] <fxfitz> VoX, Someone in #mythtv-users said that i need to compile MythDVD with the --enable-rip option, but how do I do that since I got it from synaptic??
[05:39] <Zenji> I dunno VoX, it came with Dell E510 Media Center Edition
[05:39] <amishjim> does it matter whether u get the tar.bz2 or tar.gz of a file?
[05:39] <preaction> neverblue4: http://www.linuxjournal.com/article/6983
[05:39] <DBlue> Please, help me with the printer!
[05:40] <Zenji> Not sure if Sigma is a good soundcard or not but this came with a Radeon. Its meant for gaming and music and such so I dont think they would equip it with a real bad sound card.
[05:40] <VoX> fxfitz: that.. i dont know. you can use other programs such as dvd::rip to do it
[05:40] <fxfitz> VoX, Yeah, but I just wanted to be able to do it from MythTV
[05:40] <Sh3r1ff> amishjim: you can use both
[05:40] <sipior> amishjim: not really, just "tar zxvf" versus "tar jxvf"
[05:41] <Zenji> Vox: Any idea how to like stop sound on the channels or fix this?
[05:41] <aMMuNix> when trying to start desktop-effects I get this in the terminal : "Segmentation fault (core dumped)"
[05:41] <amishjim> ok thank you, i was dling phpmyadmin and there were multiple choices
[05:41] <VoX> Zenji: well you can try 'sudo /etc/init.d/alsa restart'
[05:41] <DBlue> Just tell me the address for Canon linux drivers?
[05:41] <Sh3r1ff> amishjim: apt-get instaal phpmyadmin ;)
[05:41] <VoX> fxfitz: i cant really help you there sorry :(
[05:41] <Sh3r1ff> amishjim: apt-get install phpmyadmin ;)
[05:42] <rramos> hi
[05:42] <fxfitz> VoX, Alright. Thanks anyways!
[05:42] <Zenji> Says commands not found VoX
[05:42] <VoX> DBlue: did you look on the cannon site?
[05:42] <kun> what??
[05:42] <afief> rramos, hi
[05:42] <VoX> Zenji: hang a second
[05:42] <aMMuNix> sorry, when trying to ENABLE desktop-effects I get this error "Segmentation fault (core dumped)"

[05:47] <Pirate_Hunter> is there another type of driver I can use for the i350 printer as there is no linux drivers for it except turbo print that charges
[05:47] <Rayen> Hello, I am wondering if it is possible for GRUB to automatically boot 'Windows 98' on monday to friday when it's between 6:00 to 10:00 AM. and if it's not that time/date, it should automatically boot to Ubuntu?
[05:47] <kun> olle rramos
[05:47] <sipior> Rayen: i'm fairly sure grub doesn't support that
[05:47] <preaction> Rayen: probably better to just auto-boot to windows and (since i assume you're the linux user) have the smart person have to push some more buttons
[05:47] <Sh3r1ff> Rayen: hire a  maid to press the down button for ya
[05:47] <Rayen> sipior do you know if there is any boot manager out there, which does support it?
[05:47] <kun> rramosssss
[05:47] <DBlue> VoX: I had installed beta nvidia drivers, they functioned, but when i clicked on desktop effects the window header, the one for moving the objects disappear, but on restart all x-org server crashed, i replaced the backup, and then it functioned, but i tried ones
[05:47] <VoX> Rayen: i doubt any do
[05:47] <kun> hellooooo
[05:47] <Rayen> hmm ok
[05:47] <Nutubuntu> I'm building a new box. Will I have problems with a mobo that has onboard video (e.g.,  ASUS M2NPV-VM, w/onboard Nvidia 6150)? (I'm tight for cash; my alternative would be a GeForce 7600GT that would bump it up $85 or so.)
[05:47] <erpo> Whenever I run gdmflexiserver --xnest, log in as another user, and minimize the resulting xnest window containing the other user's desktop, xnest exists with exit value 1. What gives? Why can't I minimize the session and come back to it later?
[05:47] <DBlue> more to install it and now it stucked
[05:47] <gilo1> how do I find out if there is an apt-get package for webmin?
[05:47] <Pirate_Hunter> Rayen> cna boot managers even do that, Im sure they are just there to boot the OS
[05:47] <sipior> Rayen: i would guess no. there's the issue of what time the system thinks it is, since it generally won't have time zone information at that point
[05:47] <kun> spanish
[05:47] <erpo> Nutubuntu: Onboard geforce 6150 works great with the nvidia binary drivers.
[05:47] <VoX> Nutubuntu: asfar as drivers are concerned, they dont much care if <device> is on-board, agp or pci-e
[05:47] <sipior> Rayen: also, most people would call that an excessive "feature" in a boot loader :)
[05:47] <Nutubuntu> erpo - :) Very cool.
[05:47] <Sh3r1ff> sipior: it could get the time from the bios ;)
[05:47] <Rayen> hmm, well.. it's an idea :-)
[05:47] <Rayen> lol
[05:47] <Rayen> that's true...
[05:47] <R> I am trying to setup tinyerp-server but have a problem getting postgresql running. I am using kububtu
[05:47] <sipior> Sh3r1ff: and the time zone is? if you live in England, and it's not summer, that may be a solution :)
[05:47] <VoX> Rayen: it would involve massive amounts of hackery to get any boot loader to do what you want it to do
[05:47] <Nutubuntu> VoX, t/y ... I think I'll go with the onboard then. :)
[05:47] <Zenji> My l:(
[05:48] <Sh3r1ff> sipior: you could set the time in the bios to your timezone ;)
[05:48] <sipior> Sh3r1ff: which is a bad idea, as you well know
[05:49] <Pirate_Hunter> is it me or macromedia flash which is installed by automatix doesn't get picked up by Opera
[05:49] <DBlue> How the reconfig. of the xorg server work, cause i tried with sudo dpkg -reconfig.....   and then it listed a help strings
[05:49] <Pirate_Hunter> how can I get opera to pick up macromedia flash?
[05:49] <sapumal> I am getting errors when apt-get update
[05:49] <sapumal> Err http://lk.archive.ubuntu.com breezy-backports/universe Sources
[05:49] <sapumal>   404 Not Found [IP: <IP_ADDRESS> 80]
[05:49] <sapumal> why is this
[05:49] <VoX> DBlue: dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[05:50] <preaction> !automatix | Pirate_Hunter
[05:50] <ubotu> Pirate_Hunter: Automatix2 is a script that tries to install some software, and often fails and breaks systems. We don't provide support for it, and we strongly discourage its use. Problems caused by Automatix are often hard to track and solve, and it might sometimes be easier to !install a fresh copy of Ubuntu. See also !WorksForMe
[05:50] <_Ahti> Pirate_Hunter: Ok, here's what you do, if you have flash-plugin installed for firefox
[05:50] <DBlue> Pirate_Hunter: Install adobe flash player, and it will ask you for which Int. browser you seek!
[05:50] <sipior> sapumal: i believe breezy is no longer available, so no packages to find
[05:50] <neverblue4> preaction: so my device does not support SMART
[05:50] <_Ahti> Pirate_Hunter: All you need to do is like the libflashplugin.so from /usr/lib/firefox/plugin to /usr/lib/opera/plugin/
[05:51] <DBlue> VoX: I tried that, it list a help string!
[05:51] <neverblue4> so ill need to check my BIOS to enable it?
 for soem reason archive..etc doesn't conenct today i think it is server issues
[05:51] <_Ahti> Pirate_Hunter: Sorry, link, not like
[05:51] <preaction> neverblue4: if your device doesn't support it, you can't enable it. it also means your device is rather old
[05:51] <VoX> DBlue: pm me what it says
[05:51] <mifritscher-> hi
[05:51] <_Ahti> hio
[05:52] <neverblue4> next step?
 wil try doubt i understand what you just told me... I think you want me to copy from one to the other, but than thats what i think
[05:52] <DBlue> VoX: It say's what dpkg canm do, it list the help info!
[05:52] <_Ahti> Pirate_Hunter: No
[05:52] <mifritscher-> how can I (re)activate the list off starting services while the pc is booting?
[05:52] <_Ahti> Pirate_Hunter: Have you installed the flash-plugin for firefox yet?
[05:52] <VoX> DBlue: dont put a space between dpkg and reconfigure
[05:52] <Zenji> I ate this gayme.
[05:52] <Zenji> :(
[05:52] <VoX> DBlue: type it as 'dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg'
[05:53] <Pirate_Hunter> yup
 yup
[05:53] <DBlue> VoX: Now what to do with the beta nvidia drivers?
[05:53] <Revdogz> Does anyone have experience with tinyerp?
[05:53] <preaction> neverblue4: torch the drive? salvage what you can? pray that you get your important stuff?
 im installing adobe flash 9 at the moment
[05:53] <_Ahti> Pirate_Hunter: IF SO! Do this, "cd /usr/lib/opera" and run "sudo ln -s /usr/lib/firefox/plugins/libflashplugin.so"
[05:53] <_Ahti> Pirate_Hunter: IF SO! Do this, "cd /usr/lib/opera/plugins/" and run "sudo ln -s /usr/lib/firefox/plugins/libflashplugin.so"
[05:53] <_Ahti> sorry
[05:53] <_Ahti> :)
[05:53] <draker> ahahah oh wow
 will do so once flash 9 is installed
[05:53] <draker> oh can this f**** posix signal work
[05:54] <VoX> DBlue: edit the new xorg.conf in /etc/X11 and change the "nv" entry to "nvidia"
[05:54] <_Ahti> Pirate_Hunter: Ok, that should do the job :)
[05:54] <neverblue4> preaction: so there are no other tools for testing the drive, besides smartctl ?
[05:54] <DBlue> VoX: And then?
[05:55] <draker> hey i can't use my 3d accellerator option with my ATI card... i did install the package and activate the proprietaries driver...
[05:55] <draker> Radeon 9600 xt
 it seems like flash 9 just likes to install on the mozilla folder which is weird will try your way now and see what happens, don't go anywheere
[05:55] <preaction> neverblue4: they're unnecessary. the only recoverable errors are file system errors. the kernel notices bad HD sectors and doesn't use them. your drive is almost dead. hurry or you may not have anything to recover
[05:56] <kun> olaaa
[05:56] <_Ahti> Pirate_Hunter: Yes, i know... Thats why you install the plugin in the /usr/lib/firefox/plugins folder
[05:56] <VoX> DBlue: and then go to your X window, hit ctrl-alt-backspace, and login to gnome
[05:56] <neverblue4> preaction: we both have no idea my drive is dead
[05:56] <DBlue>  Pirate_Hunter> http://fpdownload.macromedia.com/get/flashplayer/current/install_flash_player_9_linux.tar.gz
[05:56] <gandalf``> draker: you have to disable the composite extension probably
[05:56] <_Ahti> DBlue: It seems he already has that...
[05:57] <erpo> draker: The easy option is to switch to a nvidia card. They nearly always work flawlessly with linux.
 im trying give me a sec & <DBlue> tried that
[05:57] <_Ahti> DBlue: I'm just trying to tell him how to get that plugin working for Opera
[05:57] <DBlue> VoX> Will i be able then to use 3D acc.
[05:57] <overridex-work> ok... i just upgraded a server from dapper to feisty... lilo was previously working on the raid-5 root partition but now gets the error: Fatal: Only RAID1 devices are supported for boot images - anyone know how I can get around this?
[05:57] <sredna25> I have installed truecrypt and followed a tutorial that said I should do "sudo chmod u+s /usr/bin/truecrypt " to be able to run it as a regular user. When I run it I get a message saying "truecrypt: Running with effective user id 0 (set-euid root) is not supported.". Anyone know what I've done wrong?
[05:57] <VoX> DBlue: yes
[05:57] <preaction> neverblue4: then explain the CRC errors some other way, please. if you don't have a valid backup solution already then i cannot help you anymore.
[05:57] <_Ahti> Pirate_Hunter: So have you installed the flashplugin for Firefox?
[05:57] <osxdude> Where are the packages for Synaptic stored? I did find them once but I forget the location.
[05:58] <sipior> osxdude: you mean the package cache?
[05:58] <neverblue4> preaction: i had to add -d ata to my smartctl
[05:58] <DBlue>  /var/cache/apt/archives
[05:58] <_Ahti> Pirate_Hunter: Thats all i need to know, so if you ran "ls -l /usr/lib/firefox*/plugins/" could you see a file called "libflashplugin.so" inside?
[05:58] <neverblue4> now I have the results I need
[05:58] <osxdude> sipior: yes, I guess.
[05:58] <DBlue> Linux rock
[05:59] <VoX> _Ahti: it's libflashplayer.so, not libflashplugin.
[05:59] <nuked_omen> Linux stone
[05:59] <_Ahti> VoX: Really? Ah, my mistake :D Forgotten about it
[05:59] <osxdude> Thanks, DBlue
[05:59] <sipior> osxdude: then, as DBlue mentioned, you can find it in /var/cache/apt/archives. But what are you trying to do, precisely?
[05:59] <_Ahti> Pirate_Hunter?
[05:59] <_Ahti> ...
[06:00] <_Ahti> He wants help, gets it and leaves
 ive tried sudo ln -s /usr/lib/firefox/plugins/libflashplugin.so twice the second time it tells me ln: creating symbolic link `./libflashplugin.so' to `/usr/lib/firefox/plugins/libflashplugin.so': File exists
[06:00] <DBlue> osxdude> If you wanna copy the pack. to another place, you mus have root perm.
[06:00] <_Ahti> I'm sorry Pirate_Hunter: Try looking for "libflashplayer.so"
[06:01] <osxdude> sipior: I installed vmware-player then uninstalled it then when I attempt to install vmware-server it asks me to "purge (completley remove) the package"
 so didn't work? why would that be if the files exists
[06:01] <neverblue4> http://pastebin.ca/561815
[06:01] <Tr00nic> where can i get a list of ubuntu compatible wireless adaptors?
[06:01] <neverblue4> there is my posted errors from smartctl
[06:01] <sipior> osxdude: ah, in that case, just choose "purge" as an option in synaptic, no need to muck about with the package archive
[06:02] <_Ahti> Pirate_Hunter: However, i assume the file is there... Now cd to /usr/lib/opera/plugins and run this "ln -s /usr/lib/firefox/plugins/libflashplayer.so"
[06:02] <gandalf``> Tr00nic: you want one with an Intel or Atheros chipset
[06:02] <osxdude> sipior: oh. thanks anyway!
[06:02] <Tr00nic> ok
[06:02] <Tr00nic> thats it basically gandalf?
 will do so give me a sec
[06:02] <gandalf``> those are the best supported
[06:02] <Tr00nic> ty
[06:03] <qual> how do the appointment alarms work? are they supposed to popup on the screen? i set it to do so at 15days before but didnt see anything
[06:03] <DBlue> Why nvidia is so greedy?
[06:03] <Ryan__> sup all
[06:03] <neverblue4> so by the looks of things, it appears to be fine?
[06:03] <gandalf``> go to madwifi.org, they probably have a list of known working adapters
 ive got this as a response ln: creating symbolic link `./libflashplayer.so' to `/usr/lib/firefox/plugins/libflashplayer.so': Permission denied
[06:03] <neverblue4> or does someone see something else?
[06:03] <sipior> qual: was evolution running at the time?
[06:03] <WaxyFresh> !paste
[06:03] <ubotu> pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the #ubuntu channel topic)
[06:03] <Ryan__> cause they are inefficient
[06:03] <qual> sipior, no
[06:03] <qual> i never run evolution
[06:04] <sipior> qual: apologies. then what appointment alarms were you referring to?
[06:04] <Ryan__> the fans on my laptop run sometimes but don't other times when I run ubuntu
[06:04] <_Ahti> Pirate_Hunter: You're supposed to "sudo" it... "sudo ln -s /usr/lib/firefox/plugins/libflashplayer.so", Sorry i didn't clarify that XD
[06:04] <Ryan__> I loaded lm-sensors
[06:04] <Ryan__> along with x sensors to see  if I could get the fans going
[06:04] <vincent_> anybody here with any usplash experience?
[06:04] <Ryan__> but damm
[06:04] <qual> sipior, imean its the evolution program i used to set the appointments.. from the calendar in the taskbar
[06:05] <DBlue> Is the newest SUSE better then UBUNTU?
[06:05] <Ryan__> anyone know what program I could use to tell the fans to start working again?
[06:05] <qual> sipior, but i dont run evolution.. unless i am setting appointments
[06:05] <_Ahti> DBlue: Nope
 still the same response ln: creating symbolic link `./libflashplayer.so' to `/usr/lib/firefox/plugins/libflashplayer.so': File exists
[06:05] <VoX> Ryan__: those fans are generally firmware controlled, not software
[06:05] <Pirate_Hunter> if it exists it should be able to run in opera
[06:05] <WaxyFresh> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/25259/ having problems truing to upgrade any help?
[06:05] <Ryan__> they run alot less in ubuntu than windows but the heat builds up over time
[06:05] <kun> olaa
[06:05] <sipior> qual: so you do run evolution. it probably needs to be running to pop up a message warning you about appointments
[06:05] <osxdude> okay all is good.
[06:05] <_Ahti> Pirate_Hunter: Yeah it should
[06:05] <DBlue> How can i get the temp. sensors?
[06:05] <qual> sipior, oh
[06:06] <vincent_> i got a png image, (1024x768x256), and i want to use it as a background in usplash. i've tried using pngtouseplash, but it wont work
[06:06] <qual> thats kinda lame
[06:06] <twoine> i just installed ubuntu 7.04, works fine, apart from the fact that the internet connection keeps on disconnecting.. any suggestion what might be the cause and how do i go about fixing it?
[06:06] <kun> alguien espaol???
[06:06] <qual> i thought it was tied into the calendar in the taskbar somehow
 do you think a restart would help
[06:06] <VoX> twoine: define "keeps disconnecting". what type of internet connection do you have
[06:06] <sipior> qual: the calendar doesn't have that functionality, but you could file a bug report to request the feature
[06:06] <qual> i see
[06:07] <qual> thanks sipior
