[02:52] <Miles-> Hi there
[02:52] <J_P> anyone could help me with RAID ?
[02:52] <Paddy_EIRE> infidel: which mopile pnone are you trying to use in ubunut
[02:52] <Paddy_EIRE> *ubuntu
[02:53] <infidel> Paddy_EIRE, it's a sharp vodaphone via ir
[02:54] <KillerX> !x
[02:54] <ubotu> x is the X Window System; it's the part of your system that's responsible for graphical output. To restart your X, type this in a console: sudo /etc/init.d/?dm restart  -  To fix screen resolution or other X problems: http://help.ubuntu.com/community/FixVideoResolutionHowto
[02:55] <MalMen> !sound
[02:55] <ubotu> If sound is not working, first try system -> prefrences -> multimedia system selector change it to alsa. If you still have problems then look at http://alsa.opensrc.org/index.php?page=DmixPlugin See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DebuggingSoundProblems
[02:55] <RMorris84> compiz.real: GLX_EXT_texture_from_pixmap is missing compiz.real: Failed to manage screen: 0 compiz.real: No manageable screens found on display :0.0 anybody ever seen this error before?
[02:56] <twocat> ubuntu detects my wireless card just fine, but when I click "activate" the config works for a minute and then says "activated" ... when I restart the config it is "not activated" ... how do I activate my wireless? ... I've looked around and havn't found anything...I'm about to use ndiswrapper...but I would rather use ubuntu's config
[02:56] <Miles-> I'd need help, I'd trying to create a shell script using gstreamer-lame to batch/re-encode some MP3 (160k CBR to 64k CBR conversion)
[02:57] <Miles-> No clue on how to handle that
[02:57] <gnomefreak> RMorris84: #ubuntu-xgl might beable to help more but do you have server-xgl installed?
[02:57] <RMorris84> im in there with everyone right now but nobody seemed to know
[02:58] <RMorris84> so i figured since theres u know 740 more people in here than there i would at least ask
[02:59] <ubuntu> Can i install ubuntu on another ubuntu-install without removing everything in /home/?
[03:00] <WARlrus> Hi :) I've just got Ubuntu working on an old machine, and was wondering if it's possible to connect it up to my main computer, which connects to the internet wireless-ly
[03:00] <WARlrus> I've networked the 2 using a network cable, but need to know how to share the internet
[03:00] <mike-digiport-> im having problems starting up a server, its telling me that it cannot open the .log file
[03:00] <MalMen> WARlrus, iptables
[03:00] <Rookie-> a NAT solution maybe ... ? build your own router ...
[03:00] <mike-digiport-> that is specified in the .conf, and the file is there
[03:00] <WARlrus> my main computer runs windows XP, and the Linux machine is Ubuntu 6.06
[03:01] <W_McL> ubuntu: do you have your /home on a separate partition?
[03:01] <WARlrus> I also have a USB network adaptor (belkin) but don't know if that will work on Linux
[03:01] <ubuntu> W_McL: nope
[03:01] <mike-digiport-> ?
[03:02] <Rookie-> everything works in linux, question is how to make it functional ;)
[03:02] <W_McL> ubuntu: then it might be difficult
[03:02] <fyrestrtr> RMorris84: are you using nvidia's drivers?
[03:02] <WARlrus> well how can I make the USB network adaptor functional then?
[03:02] <W_McL> ubuntu: remember to make a separate partition for your home the next time
[03:02] <RMorris84> fyrestrtr: intel i810 driver
[03:03] <fooadd>  /j #arabeyes
[03:03] <fyrestrtr> RMorris84: you should use aiglx
[03:03] <fooadd>  /join #arabeyes
[03:03] <cr3> can I run apt-get upgrade and dist-upgrade repeatedly? once I have upgraded, will running these commands again change anything?
[03:03] <RMorris84> i think i am
[03:03] <Rookie-> WARlrus - first, connect it and reboot, look in the file dmesg what the system defines it at ... after that check for modules ... check if the module is loaded - if not, check what modules it requires
[03:03] <RMorris84> i followed the tutorial from the ubuntu-xgl page
[03:03] <RMorris84> i mean room
[03:04] <WARlrus> okay, I've connected it and I'll try rebooting now
[03:04] <fyrestrtr> cr3: no, you need to run apt-get update first to fetch any updates, then apt-get upgrade to check for upgrades.
[03:04] <WARlrus> I'm a bit of a n00b btw - you may have guessed ;) this is my first Linux installation
[03:04] <Rookie-> hehe ... good way to learn ;)
[03:04] <Rookie-> i was a noob for 7 years ago ...
[03:04] <YogSothoth> Hi
[03:05] <Rookie-> ok - 810 ppl, say hi to YogSothoth
[03:05] <infidel> if i want to install lame how can i do a apt-get?
[03:05] <fooadd> infidel, sudo apt-get install lame
[03:05] <Rookie-> sudo apt-get install *pkgname*
[03:05] <RMorris84> Hi yogsothoth
[03:06] <YogSothoth> I just installed Ubuntu on my new laptop. My Wi-Fi card is installed using ndiswrapper. But I can only reach IP addresses: it seems that it does not reverse using DNS. Why?
[03:06] <Rookie-> i need a beer ... afk
[03:07] <god__> Hey!
[03:07] <infidel>  Package lame has no installation candidate
[03:07] <fyrestrtr> YogSothoth: something is wrong with you /etc/resovl.conf
[03:07] <god__> anyone able to help me with installing php-gtk? :]
[03:07] <fooadd> infidel, do you have the right repositories URI's in /etc/apt/sources.list??
[03:08] <infidel> fooadd, it may be because i'm amd64?
[03:08] <earthian> hello
[03:08] <earthian> :)
[03:08] <fooadd> god__, php-gtk AFAIK isn't in ubuntu ( I could be wrong though), I installed it from cvs
[03:08] <infidel> fooadd, which repo do i need?
[03:08] <fyrestrtr> !info php-gtk
[03:08] <god__> could you help me with installing via cvs? i keep getting an error on make
[03:08] <ubotu> Package php-gtk does not exist in any distro I know
[03:08] <fooadd> god__, just a sec
[03:08] <agib> does anyone have experience installing ubuntu with RAID 1?
[03:08] <god__> k :]
[03:08] <YogSothoth> fyrestrtr, thank you. How can I fix my /etc/resovl.conf ?
[03:09] <YogSothoth> fyrestrtr, it is empty
[03:09] <YogSothoth> fyrestrtr, is that normal?
[03:09] <Robin> hello everyone !
[03:09] <earthian> i have bought brand new 2 hard drives and made RAID 0 array. However ubuntu setup offers me to choose where i want to install ubuntu. It sees the hard drives as 2x 250GB indentical ones. I have 2x 250GB drives that are in array and should be like one 500GB ??? any idea what to do?
[03:10] <jhasse> I have Problems with Sound (nforce2). on the nvidia site is only a SuSE and Fedora driver. How can i get it work with ubuntu?
[03:10] <fyrestrtr> YogSothoth: I made a mistake, its /etc/resolv.conf
[03:10] <erUSUL> !raid
[03:10] <ubotu> Tips and tricks for RAID and LVM can be found on https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RaidConfigurationHowto and http://www.tldp.org/HOWTO/LVM-HOWTO
[03:10] <fyrestrtr> YogSothoth: this file lists your dns servers
[03:10] <YogSothoth> fyrestrtr, it's ok!
[03:10] <fooadd>  god__ http://www1.apt-get.org/search.php?query=php-gtk&submit=Submit+Query&arch%5B%5D=i386&arch%5B%5D=all    <-- I used this
[03:10] <erUSUL> !raid > earthian
[03:10] <fooadd> god__, search apt-get.org for amd64 pkgs
[03:10] <god__> thanks
[03:10] <fyrestrtr> YogSothoth: if its empty, it means your computer cannot resolve domain names to ip addresses.
[03:10] <YogSothoth> fyrestrtr, I recopied the content from the current Ubuntu box I use and it worked
[03:11] <ranpha> he guys i serached the whole forum but i can't find anything about dual network use...can somebody help me with this?
[03:11] <elvirolo> hi all
[03:11] <fooadd> god__, but if you want PHP-GTK 2  install via cvs :)
[03:11] <fyrestrtr> ranpha: ask a question?
[03:11] <YogSothoth> fyrestrtr, I don't understand why this file was not automatically filled. I've installed Ubuntu multiple times and it's the first time it happens
[03:12] <earthian> i have bought brand new 2 hard drives and made RAID 0 array. However ubuntu setup offers me to choose where i want to install ubuntu. It sees the hard drives as 2x 250GB indentical ones. I have 2x 250GB drives that are in array and should be like one 500GB ??? any idea what to do?
[03:12] <fyrestrtr> YogSothoth: it normally gets filled via DHCP. If you don't have DHCP, you have to manually specify your dns servers.
[03:12] <elvirolo> i'm using dapper with a french keyboard, and my shift and F1, F2, etc. keys don't work
[03:12] <earthian> :o
[03:12] <ranpha> fyrestrtr ...did i asked a question??????
[03:12] <Robin> Can someone help me ?. I get ubuntu working on 1 computer . but not on the other 2 they both stop at ""mouting root file system"" . Im running the live cd .
[03:13] <fyrestrtr> ranpha: no you didn't, which is why I am telling you, ask a question.
[03:13] <fyrestrtr> !anybody
[03:13] <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?
[03:13] <fooadd> Robin, could it be faulty hardware (??)
[03:13] <jhasse> How can i add a menu to the loginscreen where i can selected a username, so i don't have to type the name?? (I don't want a menu with the full names, just with the usernames)

[03:18] <erUSUL> jman8888: /usr/share/example-content/
[03:18] <fyrestrtr> YogSothoth: no, you don't *have* to use DHCP, but if you decide not you, you must give IP addresses for atleast one DNS server.
[03:18] <Robin> it there a webpage that shows the common live CD boot problems ?
[03:18] <fyrestrtr> s/not you/not to/

[03:20] <jman8888> RMorris84, Yeah.  Is there some of a single logo (With no words?)
[03:20] <RMorris84> use gimp and make it what u want
[03:20] <RMorris84> :)
[03:20] <bintut> is there a howto documentation on how to re-create an ubuntu installer like an oem installer?
[03:20] <erUSUL> !install > bintut
[03:20] <kintaro0e> fyrestrtr:  is there a wiki/help page on ubuntu with that?
[03:21] <erUSUL> !apache
[03:21] <ubotu> lamp is a shortcut for Linux-Apache-Mysql-{PHP,Perl,Python}. To setup a LAMP server on Ubuntu, install the packages libapache2-mod-php5, php5-mysql, and mysql-server-5.0.

[03:21] <fooadd> Robin, then file a bug against this ;)
[03:22] <ShoeUnited> Is there a way to make a shortcut execute a terminal command?
[03:22] <ShoeUnited> I'm wanting to play wow, and I'm almost there.  LOL
[03:22] <fooadd> ShoeUnited, you mean make a "link"?
[03:22] <ranpha> erusul you can it as a firewall yes but it like this internet------ubuntu----homenetwork
[03:23] <WARlrus> Hi, I've managed to load the USB network adaptor, but when I try to enable it, it says "Activating interface rcusb0" then crashes
[03:23] <kintaro0e> fyrestrtr:  thanks a lot
[03:23] <xin> my xubuntu installer crashed when it was removing the un-needed language packages and now apts being a nub and wanting to reinstall all of them. Anybody know what I can do?
[03:23] <moldy> if i delete the "admin" group by accident, can i just re-add it with groupadd, or will i run into trouble?
[03:23] <Robin> does ubuntu only work on NTFS ?!
[03:24] <RMorris84> is it possible to move the home directory to another partition?
[03:24] <fooadd> moldy, you can add it , yeah
[03:24] <moldy> fooadd: ok, thanks
[03:24] <ShoeUnited> I suppose fooad.
[03:24] <ShoeUnited> It says to type this in terminal :  wine ~/.wine/drive_c/Program\ Files/World\ of\ Warcraft/WoW.exe    But I kinda want a shortcut on my desktop for that. :)
[03:24] <fooadd> ShoeUnited, alias wow=" wine ~/.wine/drive_c/Program\ Files/World\ of\ Warcraft/WoW.exe"
[03:24] <erUSUL> ranpha: for that use only i will choose an specialized dist like smoothwall or ipcop. if you just want to share the inet connection and set up a firewall firestarter is up to the task afaik
[03:24] <fooadd> ShoeUnited, and type wow to run it
[03:25] <ShoeUnited> ohhh ok ^_^
[03:25] <WARlrus> Can anyone help me with my problem ^^^
[03:25] <erUSUL> !firestarter
[03:25] <ubotu> Ubuntu, like any other linux distribution, has firewall capabilities built-in. The firewall is managed with iptables (in the command line) or firestarter (gui, can also setup connection sharing)
[03:25] <Jack_Sparrow> Robin: Hi I came in late but NTFS.. ?  Ubuntu does not need ntfs for anything
[03:25] <fooadd> Robin, are you trying to install it on NTFS, that's why you are getting error messages (??)
[03:25] <ranpha> erusul...no i want to use ubuntu and have two networks to acces to
[03:26] <RMorris84> is it possible to move the home directory to another partition?
[03:26] <fyrestrtr> ShoeUnited: you can also just browse WoW.exe and double click on it to launch it with wine automatically.
[03:26] <void^> RMorris84: yes.
[03:26] <Jack_Sparrow> RMorris84: yes
[03:26] <ShoeUnited> awesome ty
[03:26] <RMorris84> just make it and move it over?
[03:26] <WARlrus> I've managed to load a Belkin USB Network Adaptor, but when I try to enable it , I get a dialogue saying "Activating interface rcusb0" then Ubuntu freezes
[03:27] <KenSentMe> I just tried to install vmware-player on Dapper Drake, but i get this error. Does anyone know how to solve it? http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/22033
[03:27] <Jack_Sparrow> RMorris84: NOt quite that easy.. Ub needs to know where it is.
[03:27] <ShoeUnited> I just want to mention that when wine installs on ubuntu, it's hidden.  So, if a user can't find it, that's probably the reason.  lol I know I spent quite a few minutes looking for it.  lol
[03:27] <fooadd> RMorris84, make a partition , copy your files there, and add an entry in /etc/fstab
[03:27] <moldy> !quota
[03:27] <ubotu> quota: implementation of the disk quota system. In component main, is optional. Version 3.13-4 (dapper), package size 390 kB, installed size 1168 kB
[03:27] <WineO> Mornin'  all.  I want to install Acrobat Reader and Flash on my new ubuntu box.  Can't find them in the package mgr.  What's the best approach?
[03:28] <KenSentMe> !pdf
[03:28] <ubotu> pdf is the Portable Document Format created by Adobe; viewable in GNU/Linux with xpdf/kpdf/gpdf, evince and also adobe reader (free download, but closed source)
[03:28] <fyrestrtr> RMorris84: not quite. First, you mount your new drive. Then, as root copy the contents of /home to the new drive (use cp -a to preserve permissions). Then, edit /etc/fstab to make sure the new drive is mounted under /home -- finally, restart the machine (or, umount /home and then mount /home again)
[03:28] <Jack_Sparrow> WineO: there is a reader in the repos

[03:30] <RMorris85> jack_sparrow, i got kicked out but i asked if i could move the home to another directory and u said ya, but i got logged off before i could get the answer to if i could just make the new one and move it over or not
[03:30] <ShoeUnited> But I know easyubuntu crashes on java an flash install.  Of course, I installed flash and java first before being told about it.  lol
[03:30] <fooadd> Jack_Sparrow, I agree ;)
[03:30] <ranpha> can ubuntu hadden two network at the same time?
[03:31] <Jack_Sparrow> RMorris85: ONe sec
[03:31] <ShoeUnited> easyubuntu worked for codecs for me...
[03:31] <ranpha> automatix worked fine for me....
[03:31] <Rookie-> ranpha - yes, all depence on how good the solution is ...
[03:31] <Jack_Sparrow> fyrestrtr:  Please give RMorris85 those instructions again.. thanks
[03:31] <sceptre0> Question:  I am using a laptop.  Is it possible to plug in a PS/2 mouse and detect it without restarting the computer?
[03:31] <KenSentMe> When try to convert a .mov file to avi with this command: ffmpeg -i bep2004_powermotive_mov.mov  -acodec mp3 -vcodec wmv2 -f avi powermotive_ffmpeg.avi
[03:32] <Robin> its booting yihhaa , huh it take real long :(
[03:32] <Jack_Sparrow> ShoeUnited: Works for me... not a good answer
[03:32] <KenSentMe> I get this error: Error while opening codec for output stream #0.0 - maybe incorrect parameters such as bit_rate, rate, width or height
[03:32] <Jack_Sparrow> !worksforme
[03:32] <ubotu> Common Sense: Just because you can, does not mean you should. Think before you do. "Works for me" does not mean it is ok. The latest version of everything is not always useful if you aim for stability.
[03:32] <ShoeUnited> lol I don't doubt linux guardians.  I'm just saying that one part worked and that I saw it crash.
[03:32] <chris__> Hello, I have an input problem with audacity, can someone help me please?
[03:32] <ShoeUnited> On a few things that were more necessary than codecs. lol
[03:32] <Rookie-> sceptre0 - what i know, linux dosent have autodetection .... but the dist ubuntu might have
[03:33] <fooadd> KenSentMe, I get the same, and I gave up the idea of converting mov files to avi/whatever, fuck apple and it's mov files :/
[03:33] <frogzoo> my totem is stuck on 1.4.1 and refuses to upgrade to 1.4.3, any hints?
[03:33] <Rookie-> remove old pkg and install new ... ?
[03:33] <moldy> can someone point me to an ubuntu quota howto?
[03:33] <KenSentMe> fooadd: maybe you are right, but the video editor Cinelerra renders best to mov and i need avi for uploading video to a website
[03:34] <fooadd> KenSentMe, I feel you...
[03:34] <ShoeUnited> Oh that reminds me..
[03:34] <ShoeUnited> !virtualdub
[03:34] <mopflite> frogzoo: mine is 1.4.1-0ubuntu4 too
[03:34] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about virtualdub - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[03:34] <Rookie-> moldy - any linuxhowto about quota is good - look at lpd
[03:34] <moldy> Rookie-: ok, thanks
[03:34] <mopflite> and I am up to date with dapper

[03:34] <fooadd> KenSentMe, as ShoeUnited  suggested, try virtualdub via wine
[03:34] <Jack_Sparrow> RMorris85: Did you get your answer yet..
[03:34] <RMorris85> no
[03:34] <frogzoo> mopflite: & it says 'held back' ?
[03:34] <jman888_> Hello?
[03:34] <jman888_> file:///usr/share/example-content/book/ubuntubook-ch6-html/6-11.png BREAD
[03:34] <Jack_Sparrow> RMorris85: ONe sec
[03:35] <RMorris85> ok
[03:35] <Rookie-> if anyone needs to know about anything howtodo (or HOWTO) io linux - this one is a good one - http://www.tldp.org/
[03:35] <Jack_Sparrow> RMorris84: not quite. First, you mount your new drive. Then, as root copy the contents of /home to the new drive (use cp -a to preserve permissions). Then, edit /etc/fstab to make sure the new drive is mounted under /home -- finally, restart the machine (or, umount /home and then mount /home again)
[03:35] <jman888_> Did anybody else see bread?
[03:36] <ShoeUnited> At the bakery lol ^_^  Yes I saw it though.
[03:36] <Rookie-> !tldp
[03:36] <ubotu> documentation is to be found at http://help.ubuntu.com and http://wiki.ubuntu.com - General linux documentation: http://www.tldp.org - http://rute.2038bug.com
[03:36] <Jack_Sparrow>  RMorris84, make a partition , copy your files there, and add an entry in /etc/fstab
[03:36] <jman888_> That was great. I The ubuntu people must REALLY love ubuntu.
[03:36] <ShoeUnited> fooadd: There isn't a linux version of vdub?
[03:37] <earthian> got a tiny question: will i go around that raid0 missunderstanding of ubuntu where it does not see my bios made raid array if i create partitions with partitionmagic before installation?
[03:37] <earthian> do you know if i will be able to choose the premade partitions for later installation?
[03:37] <fooadd> ShoeUnited, AFAIK no, ppl run it via wine, it's open source though, dunno why there is no Linux port :/
[03:37] <Jack_Sparrow> RMorris85 I also would suggest you do a backup... It is one line to type in a terminal...
[03:37] <Jack_Sparrow> !backup
[03:37] <ubotu> There are many ways to back your system up. Here's a few: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BackupYourSystem , https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DuplicityBackupHowto , https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HomeUserBackup , https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MondoMindi
[03:37] <Rookie-> linux (or ubuntu for that matter) dosent care about bios
[03:37] <mopflite> frogzoo: 1.4.1 is definitely the latest dapper totem, see http://packages.ubuntu.com/dapper/gnome/
[03:38] <ShoeUnited> fooadd: Yeah, that's what I thought, I automatically equated open source to linux.
[03:38] <RMorris85> Jack_sparrow: Thanks... ill do a lil more research, but thats the next thing on my list...
[03:38] <Linuturk_code> don't you just have to backup your /home directory to fully backup your system?
[03:38] <Masqy> hi, How can I search with apt-get for a package, the same way I do with synpatic?
[03:38] <Jack_Sparrow> k
[03:38] <frogzoo> mopflite: hmm... i must be picking it up from a newer repo - ok, that's cool, thx
[03:38] <Rookie-> apt-cache search
[03:39] <Rookie-> sudo apt-cache search *pkgname*
[03:39] <jman888_> Masqy, Try going into firefox clicking on the Search thing(WIth google) and selecting ubuntu packages. Works for me
[03:39] <cyfr> Hi can anyone tell me how to COMPLETLY remove XGL and then install xorg back again so that I can install and play games with cedega?
[03:39] <fooadd> RMorris84, found this http://www-128.ibm.com/developerworks/linux/library/l-partplan.html
[03:39] <Jack_Sparrow> Linuturk_code: No
[03:39] <RMorris85> Jack_Sparrow, what what i need to do to reinstall or maybe try another linux distro on the partition that i just took /home/ off of?
[03:39] <Masqy> Rookie-: can I use partial names instead of pkgname ?
[03:39] <longwave> cyfr: that kind of depends on how you installed xgl in the first place, which set of instructions did you follow?
[03:39] <AsadR> there's a notification icon that tells me i need to install 163 updates, is tehre anywya i can sort them by SIZE and make it download and install the smaller ones first?
[03:39] <longwave> Masqy: apt-cache search searches package descriptions and partial strings as well as just package names
[03:40] <Elazar> I have the gimp and gimp-python packages installed on Dapper, but the majority of the options under Filters, Script-Fu, and Python-Fu are disabled. Does anyone know why this might be?
[03:40] <cyfr> longwave: im not sure :p basicly added a repo and did an apt-get i think
[03:40] <Jack_Sparrow> RMorris85 USe that tar command to backup your system.. copy that to another partition or cd or dvd...
[03:40] <Masqy> longwave: hi, how can I see the status of the packages, which are installed and which aren't?
[03:40] <longwave> AsadR: not easily. some small ones might depend on a larger one being installed first, anyway
[03:40] <fooadd> Masqy, dpkg --l
[03:40] <fooadd> dpkg -l
[03:40] <longwave> Masqy: dpkg -l will show you all installed packages plus any removed but that still have their config files
[03:41] <Jack_Sparrow> RMorris85 Doo whatever, then un TAR it to restore your system
[03:41] <Rookie-> Masqy - yes, i just typed pkgname to show you that you can search any file or pakacge
[03:41] <Masqy> fooadd: that I'd have to do for each seperately, can I watch it while I seach ?
[03:41] <Rookie-> pkgname = packagename
[03:41] <fooadd> dpkg -l  will list all pkgs, dpkg -l *gnome* will list pkgs with the word gnome
[03:41] <Jack_Sparrow> RMorris85 you need to creats a couple folders but the backup docs are clear about that
[03:41] <longwave> Masqy: you can also browse and search for packages at http://packages.ubuntu.com/ if that is easier
[03:41] <fooadd> Masqy, or you meant something else?
[03:42] <Masqy> fooadd: well, basically, when I search using synaptic, I get a list of packages, with their status, when I searched (just now) using apt-cache, I just got the list
[03:42] <Masqy> how can I find out which is installed along with the search?
[03:42] <Jack_Sparrow> RMorris85: Hope that helps
[03:43] <fooadd> Masqy, by status you mean "installed/not installed"?
[03:43] <longwave> Masqy: you have to use synaptic for that, dpkg and apt-cache search are not connected unfortunately
[03:43] <cyfr> So how can I remove XGL to allow me to play games?
[03:43] <Masqy> fooadd: yes
[03:43] <longwave> Masqy: aptitude might help out here though
[03:43] <Jack_Sparrow> !xgl
[03:43] <ubotu> Compiz (compositing (window) manager) and XGL (Xserver architecture layered on top of OpenGL) howto at http://help.ubuntu.com/community/CompositeManager XGL+compiz help in #ubuntu-xgl  See http://tinyurl.com/pw5ez for Kubuntu systems
[03:43] <fooadd> if you see "ii" in front of a pkg, this means it's installed, rc, or something else, this means it's not installed, or not configured yet
[03:43] <fooadd> Masqy, dpkg -l | grep ^ii  <-- will list installed pkgs
[03:44] <cyfr> I want to remove it not install xgl :p
[03:44] <Masqy> I remeber a program called dselect from an old woody installation I had once. is that avail. ?  Ok, sure I can grep, just was wondering.. .ok thanks...
[03:44] <longwave> cyfr: maybe asking in #ubuntu-xgl will get you better answers, though
[03:44] <Masqy> got a handful of ideas.. : )
[03:44] <ShoeUnited> fooadd: vdub's author might read if interested.  -->  http://www.virtualdub.org/blog/pivot/entry.php?id=39
[03:44] <chris__> I can play sound back in audacity, but I can't record it through my Microphone, anyone have any idea why?
[03:44] <cyfr> thankyou longwave
[03:44] <fooadd> ShoeUnited, thanks for the link, checking it ;)
[03:45] <longwave> Masqy: "aptitude" is the replacement for "dselect", which is rather old now
[03:45] <fooadd> Masqy, I'd rather be screwed than use dselect YIKES!
[03:45] <Jack_Sparrow> Masqy: dpkg --get-selections > myprog.txt   will create a list of installed packages in a text file
[03:46] <ubuntu> yo
[03:46] <Masqy> fooadd, longwave: Allright, so I guess I might have been looking for that.. I remember it was.. well.. how to put it.. irritating (dselect)
[03:46] <ubuntu> hi
[03:46] <Masqy> Jack_Sparrow: 10x... I think I'll just man aptitude and dpkg for a while
[03:47] <longwave> yeah, dselect takes me back to the bad old days of the debian text-based installer *shudder*
[03:48] <AsadR> Anyone use irssi in a gnome-terminal? How do i switch windows since the terminal eats the aLt-N keystrokes
[03:49] <fyrestrtr> AsadR: esc+number
[03:50] <KenSentMe> AsadR: my terminal doesn't. I only have problems when i have multiple tabs open in one terminal
[03:50] <longwave> yeah irssi works fine for me in gnome-terminal
[03:50] <fooadd> hmmm that reminds me of trying this irssi thing :P
[03:50] <longwave> alt+shift+left or right can also switch between irssi windows
[03:50] <fyrestrtr> longwave: open a few tabs, then try it :)
[03:50] <AsadR> ok i guess if i open only 1 tab it should be
[03:50] <AsadR> fine
[03:50] <longwave> fyrestrtr: i use screen ;)
[03:51] <longwave> who needs all these new-fangled tabbed terminals when you have good old gnu screen?
[03:51] <fyrestrtr> I do, for one.
[03:51] <WineO> !firewall
[03:51] <fooadd> I do :P
[03:51] <ubotu> Ubuntu, like any other linux distribution, has firewall capabilities built-in. The firewall is managed with iptables (in the command line) or firestarter (gui, can also setup connection sharing)
[03:51] <Zajjko> Heya, I'm having a tab bit of a problem using UVC-drivers with my Logitech QuickCam Pro 5000. I've followed the installation-notes in the following thread and I was wondering if you guys have a good view on what could be wrong, reading my reply? http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=241681
[03:51] <Rookie-> !firestarter
[03:52] <Rookie-> huh ?
[03:52] <AsadR> nothing beats Alt-N tab switching. Infact, IMO Firefox's Windows tab switching needing Ctrl-N instead of Alt-N was a big mistake
[03:52] <Rookie-> ubotu ?
[03:52] <Rookie-> !firestarter
[03:52] <ubotu> Ubuntu, like any other linux distribution, has firewall capabilities built-in. The firewall is managed with iptables (in the command line) or firestarter (gui, can also setup connection sharing)
[03:52] <fooadd> Rookie-,  you wrote it wrong :P
[03:52] <Masqy> dpkg -l shows only installed ones, how can I watch all of them?
[03:52] <AsadR> Most windows multi-file editors (pnotepad, eclipse, ultra-edit, etc..) don't support Alt-N file switching, which sucks.
[03:52] <Rookie-> hmmm .... i use iptables and i write my own fw ...
[03:53] <fooadd> Masqy, all of what? dpkg -l shows installed and not_installed/not_configured pkgs, this means ALL of them :)
[03:53] <Rookie-> only little curious about firestarter
[03:53] <Masqy> fooadd: in my system id doesn't : (
[03:53] <Masqy> it
[03:53] <fooadd> weird......
[03:54] <mopflite> Rookie-: imho firestarter is an excellent "fit and forget" desktop firewall - not particularly configurable, but good for most desktop users
[03:54] <digitalhav0c> how do i extract a bin and cue file
[03:54] <Rookie-> ahh, oki
[03:54] <Rookie-> ty 4 -h
[03:54] <Masqy> I think it shows only installed/configured ones
[03:54] <longwave> Masqy: there are 1000s of packages, you wouldn't really want dpkg to list them *all* every time you ran it would you?
[03:54] <digitalhav0c> well a .bin file
[03:54] <fyrestrtr> digitalhav0c: use bchunk
[03:54] <digitalhav0c> without burning them to cd
[03:54] <digitalhav0c> bchunk
[03:54] <Zajjko> digitalhav0c: Why do you want them extracted?
[03:54] <Masqy> well, I just want to search them, and for that I have to traverse them.. in some manner
[03:55] <digitalhav0c> becuase i dont have an black cd's here
[03:55] <fooadd> Masqy, no lines starting with "rc" ??
[03:55] <Zajjko> digitalhav0c: mount it as a cdrom device?
[03:55] <digitalhavc|work> how so in linux
[03:55] <longwave> Masqy: well, "apt-cache search" searches them, installed or not, and you can compare that with your dpkg -l list to see if they are already installed, or use aptitude or synaptic
[03:55] <beerockxs> how can I configure which JRE i want to use, when I have several installed?

[04:07] <SiLV3R> ok, will try thank u
[04:07] <Jack_Sparrow> Damn this channel is good
[04:08] <Rookie-> depence on what you looking for Jack_Sparrow
[04:08] <Soujirou7> hey cool, m online with ubuntu live
[04:08] <NickRivers> ok... dumb question of the morning - is there anyway to convert my system hdd from reiserfs to ext3 without having to reinstall?
[04:08] <Jack_Sparrow> In general, one of the most helpful groups around
[04:08] <infidel> Jack_Sparrow, do you recall where the icons are kept in /usr?
[04:08] <manopulus> how i can erase/change gnome-keyring password (i do not have gnome, just some apps). can i remove some settings file?
[04:08] <NickRivers> infidel: /usr/share
[04:09] <erUSUL> infidel: /usr/share/pixmaps/ ??
[04:09] <Jack_Sparrow> infidel:  What all are you trying to do..
[04:09] <Rookie-> Jack_Sparrow - well, you can find me in some channels were the most common answer is rtfm ... i learn alot in those channels
[04:09] <Soujirou7> How can I get ubuntu live to access my files on my hard disk?
[04:09] <erUSUL> mike-digiport-: iirc apache has a mod_proxy....
[04:09] <infidel> Jack_Sparrow, thanks again,  i have the glas icons theme installed and a couple of icons need to be set
[04:10] <Jack_Sparrow> Soujirou7: mount the drive
[04:10] <jrib> Soujirou7: system > administration > disks
[04:10] <Jack_Sparrow> !mount
[04:10] <ubotu> Partitioning programs: !GParted or QTParted  -  Formatting partitions: see the manual page for mkfs ("man mkfs")  -  Mounting partitions in Gnome: System -> Administration -> Disks
[04:10] <erUSUL> Soujirou7: System>Admin>disks
[04:10] <NickRivers> Soujirou7: mount the hdd you want to access
[04:10] <Soujirou7> I did and I think it is mounted but it tells me that I don't have enough privilages?
[04:10] <Jack_Sparrow> jrib: faster than me as usual
[04:10] <digitalhavc|work> digitalhav0c@ares:~$ sudo mount -o loop /home/digitalhav0c/Downloads/Snakeonaplane/Snakeonaplane.bin /media/cdrom1
[04:10] <digitalhavc|work> ioctl: LOOP_CLR_FD: Device or resource busy
[04:10] <digitalhavc|work> mount: you must specify the filesystem type
[04:10] <digitalhavc|work> digitalhav0c@ares:~$
[04:11] <Jack_Sparrow> Soujirou7: Are you trying to write to ntfs.. not a good idea
[04:11] <NickRivers> is there anyway to convert my system hdd from reiserfs to ext3 without having to reinstall?
[04:11] <Soujirou7> no just read ntfs
[04:11] <jrib> Soujirou7: yeah, it gets mounted with root ownership.  If this was a regular install you could go ahead and mount it with proper permissions, but since this is just a live cd, just use 'gksudo nautilus' in applications > accessories > terminal
[04:11] <C-O-L-T> hello Ubuntu
[04:12] <Jack_Sparrow> 828 people shout hello back
[04:12] <Soujirou7> what is gksudo nautilus?
[04:12] <Rookie-> hehe
[04:12] <NickRivers> Soujirou7: gksudo nautilus will open the file browser in root mode
[04:12] <Rookie-> no panic no panic - all at the same time :)
[04:12] <SiLV3R> Jack_Sparrow: when i boot live cd, i can't see my normal ubuntu partition
[04:12] <wheelswitch> kde vs gnome, discuss.
[04:12] <Soujirou7> ok thanks will try :)
[04:12] <Jack_Sparrow> Soujirou7: Like windows explorer.. not IE...
[04:12] <jrib> wheelswitch: #ubuntu-offtopic is better suited for that
[04:13] <C-O-L-T> Jack_Sparrow: nope I was just saying a big hello
[04:13] <NickRivers> Jack_Sparrow: you seem to be the goto guy... is there anyway to convert my system hdd from reiserfs to ext3 without having to reinstall?
[04:13] <C-O-L-T> Jack_Sparrow: that is all
[04:13] <Sp[L] o1T> i need help ..i need a romanian people :|
[04:13] <C-O-L-T> Jack_Sparrow: :)
[04:13] <C-O-L-T> Sp[L] o1T: I am from romania
[04:13] <Jack_Sparrow> NickRivers: anything at that level is dangerous
[04:13] <NickRivers> Jack_Sparrow: bout what I figured
[04:14] <Jack_Sparrow> SiLV3R: use 'gksudo nautilus' in applications > accessories > terminal
[04:14] <ryanakca> I'm going to go and get a good video card, a non-ATI, video card, around 200CAD, that will work with (AIGLX/XGL)+Compiz . What's recommended?
[04:14] <Jack_Sparrow> ryanakca:  nvidia
[04:14] <NickRivers> ryanakca: any high-end nvidia card will do
[04:14] <NickRivers> I use an nvidia 6800 OC and it works great with xgl
[04:15] <Jack_Sparrow> 6600 oc here
[04:15] <Soujirou7> Funny jack_sparrow :) It worked but it did give me a warning that the authentication was rejected
[04:15] <NickRivers> I wonder how long before xgl really matures? still a bit quirky
[04:15] <Jack_Sparrow> Soujirou7: yep
[04:15] <ShoeUnited> I use an ATI Radeon 8750, I won't lie, there were troubles at first.
[04:16] <NickRivers> ATI doesn't play as nice with linux as nvidia
[04:16] <Rookie-> As Tray In can ....
[04:16] <muhammad> how can i install GDM Themes ?
[04:16] <ShoeUnited> I've noticed, but I'm stuck atm. :l
[04:16] <Sp[L] o1T> prv ;)
[04:16] <Jack_Sparrow> muhammad: drag and drop the tar onto theme manager
[04:16] <NickRivers> muhammad: go to system > admin > login window
[04:16] <iLikeSpoons> NickRivers: it sure doesn't.... especially the 7000 mobility series.  Any KDE'rs here? Is there a file that KDE looks in for things to autostart?
[04:16] <dfd> lol it happened a strange thing.. I'm running xchat without being logged it.. xchat is on top of gdm.. o_O
[04:17] <Hagbarddenstore> at boot then...
 <NickRivers> thx aloooot :>
[04:17] <NickRivers> Hagbarddenstore: $HOME/.kde/AutoStart
[04:17] <ryanakca> Hagbarddenstore: yes
[04:17] <SiLV3R> Jack_Sparrow: when i try to access my normal ubuntu partition following error appears: "error: device /dev/hda6 is not removable" and "error: couldn't execute pmount"
[04:17] <Hagbarddenstore> NickRivers: Thankls
[04:17] <ryanakca> Hagbarddenstore: you can also set autostart in kcontrol
[04:18] <Hagbarddenstore> ryanakca: ok
[04:18] <Hagbarddenstore> I have to symlink commands to autostart correct?
[04:18] <Jack_Sparrow> jrib: can you help SiLV3R Im not sure where he is at with that
[04:18] <NickRivers> Hagbarddenstore: no... put .desktop files in your autostart folder
[04:18] <ShoeUnited> Any speculations on future linux when ATI/AMD start making new stuff?
[04:18] <SonicChao> When I try to lauch juice it says "FATAL ERROR: Screen size is smaller than 80x25". Why is this?
[04:18] <ryanakca> Hagbarddenstore: come to #kubuntu and I'll help you there
[04:18] <ShoeUnited> I've got this feeling that they'll be making mobos.
[04:19] <NickRivers> Hagbarddenstore: make a link to application on your desktop and then copy it to your autostart folder
[04:19] <kill4killin> Can someone help me fix my ubuntu install,  think kdm got messed up somehow and i dont know how to either switch to gdm or to re-install kdm
[04:19] <jrib> SiLV3R: type 'mount' in a terminal.  Then post the output on http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org and give us a link please
[04:19] <Jack_Sparrow> SiLV3R: you are in gksudo nautilus correct..
[04:20] <Jack_Sparrow> thanks jrib

[04:21] <kill4killin> forevertheuni: do you know how i can go about fixing this, maybe to re-install kdm or use gdm instead?
[04:21] <NickRivers> kill4killin: have you checked to see what type of seesion you have selected?
[04:21] <kishore> when trieng to install mplayer getting error as Package mplayer has no installation candidate
[04:22] <jrib> !xhangs > kill4killin
[04:22] <jrib> kill4killin: try what ubotu said
[04:22] <forevertheuni> kill4killin, see the logs
[04:22] <kill4killin> NickRivers: i have tried all the different sessions and nothing works
I can see my file structure but it won't mount even an mp3 (No codecs?)
[04:23] <SiLV3R> jrib: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/22044
 I can access my docs though, which is nice
[04:23] <Jack_Sparrow> Soujirou7: running live you will not be able to play an mp3
[04:24] <Soujirou7> Darn hehe
[04:24] <jrib> Jack_Sparrow: he can still install the codecs on a live cd can't he?
[04:24] <Jack_Sparrow> Soujirou7: Make them ogg's and you are golden
[04:24] <kill4killin> jrib: i did that but it still does not start
[04:24] <KenSentMe> I just tried to install vmware-player on Dapper Drake, but i get this error. Does anyone know how to solve it? http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/22033
[04:24] <Jack_Sparrow> jrib:  I think so but I thought he was just trying to recover his files
[04:24] <jrib> kill4killin: k, then logs is the way to go as someone else suggested
[04:25] <Soujirou7> how do you "make" them ogg?
[04:25] <kill4killin> i think i missed that part, would you please reitterate?
[04:25] <chaosite> I have a problem with my thinkpad running Dapper, it doesn't notice when I remove AC power
[04:25] <jrib> SiLV3R: when you go to system > administration > disks is the partition you want to mount enabled?
[04:25] <NickRivers> KenSentMe: looks like a kernel module - vmnet - needs to be loaded?
[04:25] <bilss_> hi
[04:26] <jrib> kill4killin: check ~/.xsession-errors
[04:26] <KenSentMe> NickRivers: shouldn't that be done by apt?
[04:26] <ShoeUnited> !ppoe > earthian
[04:26] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about ppoe - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[04:26] <Jack_Sparrow> I use sound converter, but I dont think it is in live.. and are you reading from ntfs.. do you have another drive to write to that is NOT ntfs
[04:26] <arno> Hello. Could someone test my ftp server : ftp://<IP_ADDRESS>
[04:26] <NickRivers> KenSentMe: dunno... try doing a modprobe vmnet
[04:26] <jrib> kill4killin: try creating a new user too and see if you can login with the new user
[04:26] <bilss_> if i have a directory and a file run as root and i want to change the permissions to alex is it chown alex:alex?
[04:26] <Soujirou7> I have a fat32 partition but I'am unsure if I got it mounted
[04:26] <ufk> what branch includes glade-3? it's not in dapper
[04:27] <KenSentMe> NickRivers: FATAL: Module vmnet not found
[04:27] <Jack_Sparrow> arno: could not connect
[04:27] <kill4killin> jrib: i checked and there is either no file under that name or its empty

[04:27] <Jack_Sparrow> Soujirou7: could you please restate your intentions?

[04:29] <NickRivers> KenSentMe: try sudo dpkg --configure vmware-player
[04:29] <KenSentMe> ubuntu: everything ok, but this kind of talk belongs to #ubuntu-offtopic
[04:30] <arno> frogzoo what do you mean?
[04:30] <jrib> SiLV3R: when you select the partition, the bottom should say "Status", make sure that is enabled
[04:30] <Jack_Sparrow> Soujirou7:  follow jrib's advice and paste results from mount in terminal
[04:30] <ubuntu> lol
[04:30] <ubuntu> wow
[04:30] <jrib> SiLV3R^2: when you select the partition, the bottom should say "Status", make sure that is enabled

[04:33] <frogzoo> arno: ip again?
[04:34] <dmsantam> Jack_Sparrow, yep
[04:34] <jrib> SiLV3R^2: ok that is probably why, go into a terminal and do 'mkdir /media/hda6'.  That create the /media/hda6 directory, then use that is the access path and try to enable again
[04:34] <ryanakca> NickRivers: and is EVGA E-GEFORCE a NVIDIA or is it EVGA (it was on the nvidia page)
[04:34] <jrib> SiLV3R^2: sorry, that should be 'sudo mkdir /media/hda6'

[04:35] <ubuntu> arno: which tool r u using , proftpd?
[04:35] <ryanakca> NickRivers: http://www.ncix.com/products/index.php?sku=16741&vpn=128-P2-N367&manufacture=eVGA     isn't nvidia, but eVGA, right? (it's a different link than the first)
[04:36] <kill4k1illin> does anyone else have any ideas why when i log into xserver it just goes back to the kdm login screen? i need this fixed asap so i can finsish a project
[04:36] <kosnick> any channel about ubuntu and dsl routers ?
[04:36] <SiLV3R^2> sdev/hda6 is /. i'm on live cd now
[04:36] <jrib> kill4k1illin: did it do the same with a new user?
[04:36] <Jack_Sparrow> Soujirou7: you are running live cd and it shows the ntfs partition as read/write ?  I am confused.. I'll just listen for awhile
[04:36] <kill4k1illin> i only have one user, but i could try making a new one and see
[04:36] <siegie> does anyone know a package for viewing, the leds of numlock caps lock on the gnome panel
[04:36] <NickRivers> ryanakca: eVGA is just the company selling the card - anything "GeForce" is nvidia based
[04:36] <arno> frogzoo ubuntu I use proftpd. Can you try again now?
[04:36] <Soujirou7> you know more than I do... :)
[04:36] <arno> please
[04:36] <ryanakca> NickRivers: oh, ok
[04:36] <jrib> SiLV3R^2: but mounting it on the livecd won't affect anything.  What are you trying to do?
[04:36] <frogzoo> kill4k1illin: do you have a .Xsession or a .gnomerc or problem in your .profile ?
[04:36] <ryanakca> NickRivers: Thanks
[04:37] <SiLV3R^2> you got the screenshot earlier?
[04:37] <jrib> SiLV3R^2: or was this like a practice run?
[04:37] <NickRivers> ryanakca: for example, my nvidia geforce 6800 was made by BFG Tech
[04:37] <arno> ftp://<IP_ADDRESS>
[04:37] <kill4k1illin> frogzoo: how do you make a new user again, its been so long since i made one
[04:37] <Jack_Sparrow> SiLV3R^2: yes saw screenshot and the problem with hda6
[04:37] <frogzoo> arno: nope & this is getting old fast - read up on firewalling ftp as I say
[04:37] <erUSUL> kill4k1illin: System>admin>users
[04:37] <omeganine> I installed my ATI drivers and now my video colors are all F'd up.  Its just the video overlay, desktop colors are fine....any ideas?
[04:38] <kill4k1illin> erUSUL: i dont have xserver
[04:38] <ubuntu> kill4k1illin: adduser command
[04:38] <frogzoo> kill4k1illin: sudo adduser snookums
[04:38] <kill4k1illin> thats it, thank you ubuntu
[04:38] <ubuntu> kill4k1illin: yw
[04:38] <SiLV3R^2> jrib: so the main prob, ist that my hda6 is / (boot) partition and i can't boot ubuntu. just used the live cd to make those settings
[04:38] <NickRivers> arno: what port do you have your ftp server setup to use?
[04:39] <kill4k1illin> ok, whats the default root password for dapper? It wont let me make a new user using my login
[04:39] <jrib> SiLV3R^2: oh ok, I didn't understand what you were doing
[04:39] <Jack_Sparrow> !root
[04:39] <ubotu> sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for all information.
[04:39] <frogzoo> kill4k1illin: sudo adduser snookums
[04:39] <kill4k1illin> oooo ok
[04:39] <ubuntu> kill4k1illin:  type sudo passwd root
[04:40] <ubuntu> make a new 1
[04:40] <SiLV3R^2> jrib: ok, what can i try now to make it work
[04:40] <frogzoo> ubuntu: setting a pw for root isn't required, nor rec'd
[04:40] <ubuntu> frogzoo: kill was asking for it
[04:40] <Soujirou7> Success! (I think)  I changed the access path for my fat32 partition so now it is accessable.
[04:41] <kill4k1illin> frogzoo: yes the same thing happens with a different user
[04:41] <jrib> SiLV3R^2: not sure why mounting /dev/hda6 on the livecd would work but it complains during bootup
[04:41] <NickRivers> jrib: what mount options are in fstab for /dev/hda6?
[04:41] <NickRivers> arno: what port do you have your ftp server setup to use?
[04:42] <ubuntu> oh well
[04:42] <Jack_Sparrow> Soujirou7: What are you trying to do?
[04:42] <ubuntu> later
[04:42] <jrib> SiLV3R^2: maybe NickRivers can help, I'm about to leave.  gl
[04:42] <frogzoo> kill4k1illin: pastebin /var/log/gdm/\:0.log
[04:42] <Jack_Sparrow> jrib: Nice work as always
[04:43] <kill4k1illin> frogzoo: is there a way i can try logging in with gdm, im using kdm now
[04:43] <NickRivers> SiLV3R: put the contents of /etc/fstab on pastebin and give me the url
[04:43] <SiLV3R^2> paste.ubuntu-nl.org/22048 <<< is fstab right?
[04:43] <MrFatJack> xgl breaks my gnome-panel applets that want keyboard input (deskbar, etc). any thoughts?
[04:43] <SiLV3R^2> NickRivers: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/22048
[04:44] <NickRivers> SiLV3R: yah - hang on
[04:44] <SiLV3R^2> jrib: thanks anyway :)
[04:44] <frogzoo> kill4k1illin: sure - choose 'session' from login menu, as long as you have gnome installed already
[04:44] <jake1> i'm hoping someone can assist me in finding out what driver my Wireless card is using
[04:44] <bilss_> how to chown/ as from user name root to alex a dir andf file? is it chown alex:alex?
[04:44] <kill4k1illin> frogzoo: no, i mean, instead of using kdm i want to log in using gdm. I have already tried logging into all the WMs i have installed
[04:44] <frogzoo> MrFatJack: it's not just your hotkey settings?
[04:44] <jake1> it works, but i am curious which driver it works with that way i can set up kismet
[04:45] <sethk> kill4k1illin, you can do that
[04:45] <manux> Why when I Install madwifi I get this error message: Makefile.inc:113: *** KERNELCONF: /lib/modules/2.6.12-10-386/build/.config does not exist..  Stop.
[04:45] <kill4k1illin> sethk: yes, but how?
[04:45] <manux> ?
[04:45] <frogzoo> kill4k1illin: can you select gnome session from login?
[04:45] <sethk> bilss_, yes, for both user name and gropup,   user:group
[04:45] <MrFatJack> frogzoo: not sure what you mean?
[04:45] <kill4k1illin> yes, but it does not work
I am trying to access my most used files under ubuntu so that I know what works and what doesn't...I don't want to dump my Win sys just yet
[04:45] <T`ch> anyone use mc here?
[04:46] <T`ch> i'm trying to change the default editor to vim...
[04:46] <frogzoo> MrFatJack: is there a menu for 'session' ? where you can select gnome?
[04:46] <sethk> kill4k1illin, in the /etc/rc.# directories are scripts run for each level
[04:46] <jake1> frogzoo at login
[04:46] <sethk> kill4k1illin, you replace the one that runs kdm with one that runs gdm
[04:46] <NickRivers> SiLV3R: try changing "/dev/hda6       /               ext3    defaults,errors=remount-ro 0       1" to "/dev/hda6       /               ext3    defaults 0       1" in /etc/fstab and rebooting
[04:46] <Jack_Sparrow> Soujirou7: dual boot works fine.. many many people do it including myself
[04:46] <jake1> the login screen under options
[04:46] <sethk> kill4k1illin, which will already be there if both are installed.
[04:46] <jake1> just click that and select gnome
[04:47] <siegie> does anyone know a package for viewing, the leds of numlock caps lock on the gnome panel
wouldn't I have to format my drive (ie loose my data) to dual boot.
[04:47] <sh4dox> hi :D i think i screwed my ubuntu (at least for a little bit) :D when I go to system => log off, there only appear 5  buttons ... the log off and reboot buttons are gone :s can someone help me? :D
[04:47] <kill4k1illin> sethk, but how do i tell it to use gdm intead, or is there a way i can uninstall and then reinstall kdm?
[04:47] <kill4k1illin> i think it got messed up somehow
[04:47] <bilss_> sethk so in this case say the line is drwxr-xr-x  2 root root   60 2006-08-30 15:24 echolot how to change root to echolot for echolot dir?
[04:47] <MrFatJack> frogzoo: I think this is a known bug in compiz. thanks anyway.
[04:48] <Jack_Sparrow> Soujirou7: No, just squeeze some free drive space for the installer to create the partition and the swap
[04:48] <sethk> kill4k1illin, you can uninstall, but it isn't necessary.  let me get the exact names for you
[04:48] <SiLV3R> NickRivers: i'll  try
[04:48] <Jack_Sparrow> Soujirou7: How full is your hard drive
[04:48] <frogzoo> siegie: this should work: keybled - KDE keyboard LED applet
[04:48] <XXX-560558574040> helpp
[04:48] <manux> What kind of error is this when I try to Install madwifi: Makefile.inc:113: *** KERNELCONF: /lib/modules/2.6.12-10-386/build/.config does not exist..  Stop.
[04:48] <manux>   ?
[04:48] <nlitement> hello! :)
[04:48] <XXX-560558574040> NO MP3 PLAY AT UBUNTU !!!
[04:48] <kill4k1illin> O.o
[04:48] <Jack_Sparrow> XXX-560558574040: dont yell
[04:48] <sethk> chown echolot:echolot  filename   (or dirname, exactly the same command for a file or a directory)
[04:48] <Jack_Sparrow> XXX-560558574040: Yes we can play mp3's
[04:49] <Soujirou7> full as in what? I have no "unallocated space" and otherwise it is maybe 50% full
[04:49] <siegie> frogzoo, that is a kde package?  i use gnome?
[04:49] <XXX-560558574040> no mp3 play at ubuntu drake
[04:49] <XXX-560558574040> any help?
[04:49] <Jack_Sparrow> Soujirou7: do you have access to partition magic..
[04:49] <XXX-560558574040> any help ? no mp3 play
[04:49] <nlitement> I've quickly tried the faq, can someone tell me, does the standard ubuntu install cd include ftp/apache/php packets?
[04:49] <synic> XXX-560558574040: quit repeating yourself.
[04:49] <frogzoo> siegie: I haven't used it, but worth giving it a go
[04:49] <NickRivers> siegie: try installing gkrellm-leds
[04:49] <Jack_Sparrow> Soujirou7: if not the installer can shrink your existing partition,
[04:49] <Soujirou7> um, not really
[04:49] <jake1> can someone tell me how to find out what driver my wireless card is using
[04:49] <frogzoo> !mp3 > XXX-560558574040
[04:49] <SiLV3R> NickRivers: still doesn't work to boot
[04:49] <jake1> and how to change it
[04:50] <bilss_> sethk; so in this case for the directory chown  echolot:echolot echolot?
[04:50] <operative> any explicit reason why libgtk2.0-dev shouldn't be able to install on dapper?
[04:50] <sethk> kill4k1illin, on my box the gdm link is a link to an empty file, and my kdm link is a link for the kdm start script.  you reverse that to get gdm instead of kdm
[04:50] <frogzoo> jake1: should be mentioned in /var/log/messages - you shouldn't need to change it really
[04:50] <NickRivers> SiLV3R: /dev/hda6 *is* an ext3 filesystem right?
[04:50] <Soujirou7> Ok, so about how much would you suggest for ubuntu?
[04:50] <kill4k1illin> :-/
[04:50] <siegie> NickRivers, gkrellm is not wat a want, i want it on the panel like i had in debian sarge keyboard-led-applet was it but it doesn't has newer versions for new gnome
[04:50] <Jack_Sparrow> Soujirou7: the installer on the live cd will shrink your existing system and make room for dual system
[04:50] <nlitement> no answer?
[04:50] <sethk> bilss_, yes, to change the directory, but none of its contents, yes
[04:50] <manux> what kind of file is .config ?
[04:51] <kill4k1illin> can linux write to ntfs ok?
[04:51] <Jack_Sparrow> no
[04:51] <operative> manux: ascii
[04:51] <Jack_Sparrow> !fuse
[04:51] <ubotu> Though it's still very unsafe, you can read about Ubuntu NTFS writing here: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Lkraider/NtfsFuse
[04:51] <nlitement> sigh..
[04:51] <sethk> kill4k1illin, no, still dangerous
[04:51] <SiLV3R> Nickriver: right
[04:51] <frogzoo> kill4k1illin: sudo /etc/init.d/kdm stop ; sudo /etc/init.d/gdm start
[04:51] <Soujirou7> Will it configure it or will I have to monkey it so I can boot back into XP?
[04:51] <XXX-560558574040> Help ! no mp3 play ! AND Can't compile the Gambas and many other progrs
[04:51] <bilss_> sethk: and in the case of a file that directoiry as alex chown echolot echolot alex (the file name is alex in echolot dir)
[04:51] <kill4k1illin> frogzoo: yes i know i did that a few times and it doesnt help
[04:51] <sethk> nlitit doesn't work that way
[04:51] <Jack_Sparrow> Soujirou7: it sets up grub and both systems

[04:51] <synic> XXX-560558574040: you've already been answered.
[04:51] <Jack_Sparrow> Soujirou7: from a menu
[04:52] <arno> ftp://<IP_ADDRESS> could someone try again now? please
[04:52] <Soujirou7> ok
[04:52] <sethk> bilss_, if it's the current directory, yes
[04:52] <frogzoo> arno: nope
[04:52] <bilss_> sethk: must do it as root#
[04:52] <Hendriko> Hi, when preseeding ubuntu i have a problem. i get a hostname assigned via dhcp during boot. now the installer always shows me that name and i have to press return to commit it. is there a way to omit that?
[04:52] <arno> frogzoo : can you still ping?
[04:52] <Soujirou7> Is there a size requirement for ubuntu
[04:52] <jake1> none of these mention the driver
[04:53] <Jack_Sparrow> synic:  Some people can type but have hard time reading ")
[04:53] <jake1> just the status of eth2
[04:53] <sethk> bilss_, if root currently owns the file, yes
[04:53] <matthewf> how much of a pain in the arse woul installing Ubuntu on a system based on NForce4 Intel be (going to use VIA Audio and a Geforce 6200 for video mind you) ?
[04:53] <synic> Hendriko: just type in a new one
[04:53] <frogzoo> arno: you can use 'shields up' or similiar to check if your ftp port is contactable, that's step #1
[04:53] <NickRivers> siegie: try going to http://packages.debian.org/oldstable/x11/keyboard-led-applet and downloading and installing the .deb file
[04:53] <jake1> i want to know what driver eth2 uses
[04:53] <kill4k1illin> if i cant write to ntfs, is there a way that i can backup some stuff so i can just reformatt this partition?
[04:53] <bilss_> sethk yes root owns file and directory
[04:53] <erUSUL> !fuse
[04:53] <ubotu> Though it's still very unsafe, you can read about Ubuntu NTFS writing here: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Lkraider/NtfsFuse
[04:53] <Jack_Sparrow> matthewf: have you run the live cd yet
[04:53] <sethk> jake1, try ifconfig -a
[04:53] <sethk> bilss_, ok, then yes, use sudo
[04:53] <frogzoo> arno: yes it pings - google 'shields up' so you can check yourself
[04:54] <Jack_Sparrow> kill4k1illin: you can read ntfs with no problem
[04:54] <sethk> jake1, you can find out the type of hardware using lspci, also
[04:54] <Hendriko> synic, well its ok that i get a hostname and i want the system to take that hostname. what i do not wnat it to have to press a key during a preseeded install!
[04:54] <Jack_Sparrow> kill4k1illin: you can burn dvd or cd
[04:54] <matthewf> Jack_Sparrow: no.. system isnt built yet... i have the choice of mobos as i have 2 spare ones .. an Intel 955x one and a NF4 Intel one
[04:54] <synic> Hendriko: ah
[04:54] <matthewf> Jack_Sparrow: the 955x may be a little... iffy tho, but the other one hasnt been used at all
[04:54] <jake1> sethk i know the hardware
[04:54] <synic> Hendriko: yeah, dunno, sorry
[04:55] <sethk> jake1, then what do you need?
[04:55] <kill4k1illin> Jack_Sparrow: i dont need to read ntfs, i need to write some of my files on my *nix partition to ntfs or some backup media. Is there a way to write a cd from terminal?
[04:55] <Hendriko> I have tried several settings in the preseed-file but that message does not go away :(
[04:55] <jake1> i plug in my wireless card and it works, i'm just curious which driver it works with
[04:55] <Jack_Sparrow> matthewf: nforce4 is ok... just dont try to use the riad on it
[04:55] <sethk> jake1, lspci will show you the kernel modules
[04:55] <sethk> jake1, sorry, lsmod
[04:55] <jake1> but not the driver
[04:55] <NickRivers> SiLV3R: I'm stuck... dunno man - sorry :\
[04:56] <sethk> jake1, that is the driver
[04:56] <matthewf> Jack_Sparrow: it is the Intel version, and its ment to be a bit of a pain sometimes, but i think thats mosly for overlocking which this system wont be
[04:56] <NickRivers> kill4k1illin: if your linux partition is ext3 there is a freeware program that will let you read ext3 from windows
[04:56] <erUSUL> jake1: dmesg | grep eth2
[04:56] <kill4k1illin> NickRivers: what is it called, i need it
[04:56] <matthewf> Jack_Sparrow: Id use the 955x but i think i may have uh... abused it to much heh
[04:56] <siegie> NickRivers, i have tried it but it depens on libpanel-applet0 i have libpanel-applet2-0 installed but nothing
[04:56] <Jack_Sparrow> I understand..
[04:56] <jake1> wow....... i've tried all these, and none of them say the driver to eth2
[04:57] <jake1> just it's status
[04:57] <jake1> and crap
[04:57] <jake1> like that
[04:57] <Soujirou7> Thanks Jack_sparrow :)
[04:57] <jake1> i need to know the driver in order to configure kismet
[04:57] <Jack_Sparrow> SiLV3R:  Are you still stuck trying to get hda6 to boot?
[04:57] <NickRivers> kill4k1illin: http://www.sharewareconnection.com/diskinternals-linux-reader.htm
[04:57] <sethk> jake1, the kernel modules _are_ the driver
[04:57] <frogzoo> Jack_Sparrow: which wireless card?
[04:57] <matthewf> Jack_Sparrow: so as far as your aware NF4 Intel should work (including SATA/IDE,Network etc) ?
[04:57] <Jack_Sparrow> frogzoo: ?
[04:58] <frogzoo> jake1: which wireless card (soz Jack_Sparrow)
[04:58] <erUSUL> jake1: what chip uses the card?
[04:58] <kill4k1illin> thank you all, and goodbye for a little while
[04:58] <Jack_Sparrow> :)
[04:58] <jake1> it's a Lucent Technologies
[04:58] <jake1> Silver
[04:58] <jake1> 802.11b
[04:58] <Jack_Sparrow> matthewf:  you can look up the other hardware info.. since that is not wireless it should be ok
[04:58] <dverzolla> What is the lattest version of mythweb?
[04:58] <Jack_Sparrow> !hardware
[04:58] <ubotu> For lists of supported hardware on Ubuntu see: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupport
[04:59] <jake1> now the back of the card has big writing that says ORINOCO
[04:59] <jake1> but i'm curious... if i type in 'iwconfig' under eth2
[04:59] <erUSUL> jake1: then you know it. it uses the orinoco driver
[05:00] <jake1> but... if i type in iwconfig it says under nickname: HERMES
[05:00] <jake1> which is a driver isn't it?
[05:00] <jake1> well it says HERMS I
[05:00] <jake1> HERMES I*
[05:00] <SiLV3R> Jack_Sparrow: still stuck :(
[05:00] <erUSUL> jake1: lsmod | grep orinoco
[05:01] <Jack_Sparrow> SiLV3R: have you browsed to see if it looks like all your stuff is still in there?
[05:01] <frogzoo> jake1: sudo lspci |grep -i wireless
[05:02] <SiLV3R> i didn't look exactly if there is everything still availabe but i accessed my home dir and there still was everything
[05:02] <jake1> frogzoo that told me my internal wireless card
[05:02] <jake1> not my pcmcia card
[05:03] <frogzoo> jake1: cardctl ident
[05:03] <AsadR> is it ok to ask for help with firestarter?   firestarter refuses to run dhcpd by itself, I have to start it manually otherwise it tries to configure interfaces on which dhcp is not supposed to listen on
[05:03] <jake1> nope just names the card and tells me who manufactured it
[05:03] <jake1> whatever
[05:03] <jake1> probably orinoco
[05:04] <Jack_Sparrow> SiLV3R:  here is one option.. http://users.bigpond.net.au/hermanzone/SuperGrubDiskPage.html  super grub reapir... I wonder is fsck on hda6 would help... ask rivers
[05:04] <AsadR> and is Rythmbox supposed to play mp3s out of the boxc?
[05:04] <erUSUL> jake1: lsmod | grep orinoco <-- if this outputs anything orinoco is the driver
[05:04] <Jack_Sparrow> !mp3
[05:04] <ubotu> For multimedia issues, this page has useful information: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats  -  See also http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/desktopguide/C/common-tasks-chap.html  -  But please use free formats if you can: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FreeFormats
[05:04] <jake1> at any rate..... how do i configure Kismet to use the orinoco driver
[05:04] <jake1> where is the kismet.conf file
[05:04] <zielonka> hello
[05:05] <Jack_Sparrow> brb
[05:05] <jake1> erUSUL: yep it's the orinoco driver then
[05:05] <frogzoo> jake1: http://www.kismetwireless.net/Forum/Equipment/Messages/1149856224.2339339
[05:06] <zielonka> exit

[05:06] <keescook> is launchpad down?
[05:06] <keescook> hiay ScislaC
[05:07] <ScislaC> hi keescook!
[05:10] <WARlrus> Hi, I'm having problems with a USB Wireless Network Adaptor, whenever I try to enable it, it says "Activating interface rausb0" and freezes
[05:10] <ScislaC> anyone have any pointers to good documentation about recovering files/directories from "lost+found"? google and ubuntuforums haven't turned up much for me
[05:12] <WARlrus> can anyone help me with the USB Wireless problem? ^^
[05:12] <WARlrus> please - I'm getting rather desperate
[05:13] <Masqy> Has someone comiled ffmpeg here? which source did you use? (It is a stop towards VLC on my ubuntu, trying to get WMV3 formats to show some video)
[05:13] <pianoboy3333> Does anyone here have experience with mencoder, I'm trying to crop and resize a movie.
[05:14] <_lupine> WARlus: are you using the native driver?
[05:14] <_lupine> And if so, how up to date is it?
[05:14] <JackMacOKC> WARlrus: from my experience, usb wireless is hit and miss in ubuntu. most people i've tried to help with it have never got it working. what adapter do you have?
[05:14] <_lupine> JackMacOKC: I've got one of those, and they work well
[05:14] <_lupine> just slightly tempermental - the drivers are still beta
[05:14] <JackMacOKC> _lupine: hence the phrase, hit and miss
[05:14] <_lupine> hehe
[05:15] <WARlrus> I have a Belkin one
[05:15] <WARlrus> I just plugged it in, and Ubuntu is recognising it
[05:15] <_lupine> rausb0 is a certain chipset, with a certain driver - so dont' worry about that too much
[05:16] <_lupine> ah; yes, if you've got a driver included with Ubuntu, it's bound to be well out of date
[05:16] <kikko> do dapper kernels have himem support?
[05:16] <_lupine> Do you have any experience with compiling kernel modules?
[05:16] <_lupine> kikko: 4GB I think
[05:16] <_lupine> more if you're running amd64
[05:16] <_lupine> (assuming you're using himem in the DOS sense)
[05:17] <Ricesteam> what is the difference between i386 vs i686?
[05:17] <WARlrus> no, I've never compiled a kernel module before
[05:17] <JackMacOKC> i686 is optimized for pentium 4s
[05:17] <graveson> what decoder do i need to play .mov files
[05:17] <_lupine> WARlus: OK, and are you just using the default kernel?
[05:17] <JackMacOKC> graveson: quicktime
[05:17] <fijam> JackMacOKC: for PIII and up
[05:17] <_lupine>  (run uname -r and report the output if you're not sure)
[05:17] <kikko> _lupine,  do I have to compile a custom kernel if I have 6GB of RAM  (32bit intel)
[05:17] <_lupine> kikko: probably
[05:18] <_lupine> the default is 4GB support
[05:18] <kikko> dang :\
[05:18] <_lupine> not hard :)
[05:18] <JackMacOKC> fijam: true
[05:18] <Ricesteam> would there be noticable differences if I update to i686 from i386 since I'm using a P4?
[05:18] <_lupine> just get the sources, run "make oldconfig", then change that one option and make
[05:18] <fijam> Ricesteam: there will be
[05:18] <_lupine> Ricesteam: possibly not
[05:18] <fijam> Ricesteam: quite noticable
[05:18] <JackMacOKC> Ricesteam: should be, its worth it to upgrade
[05:18] <WARlrus> I'm just rebooting the machine after another attempt, give me a second and I'll run that command
[05:18] <_lupine> ok
[05:19] <MrZaius> what's the new gpm package?
[05:19] <Jack_Sparrow> Ricesteam: very little difference, I have both kernels available in my meun
[05:19] <Ricesteam> I don't want to reinstall Ubuntu and all the other apps I got working...
[05:19] <_lupine> Ubuntu are considering scrapping the divergent architectures, since the developers aren't seeing much (subjective) difference
[05:19] <MrZaius> or rather, how do you get gpm installed in dapper?
[05:19] <_lupine> best bet is to run a few benchmarks and see what you get on your machine
[05:19] <MrZaius> libgpmg says it's installed, but it can't find an installation candidate for 'gpm'
[05:20] <Jack_Sparrow> Ricesteam: First of all you really need a backup... no matter what OS... and you can add a 686 along with the running 386
[05:20] <_lupine> No need to reinstall to change the kernel, though
[05:20] <Ricesteam> Thanks. I think I'm just going to leave it as i386 for now since everything is working fine now.  I'll opt to upgrade if I'm forced to reinstall my OS
[05:21] <JackMacOKC> Ricesteam: thats usually fine. i've found that upgrading is really only beneficial if you have hyperthreaded or dual core processors
[05:21] <WARlrus> 2.6.15-26-386 - thats the output I got
[05:21] <fijam> c'mon it's not that dangerous
[05:21] <Jack_Sparrow> Ricesteam: I was expecting more of a difference...
[05:21] <_lupine> WARlus: cool. I've got an easy route for you then
[05:21] <Jack_Sparrow> Ricesteam: and I am running ht/dual
[05:21] <WARlrus> woo, I like them
[05:21] <fernando_> Hi, all. I have a problem with cups http print. I receive a message "/usr/lib/cups/backend/http failed". Someone can help ?
[05:21] <MrZaius> only reall see it when everything is compiled in an architecture specific way
[05:21] <[g2] > in 6.06.01 from the livecd using the persistent option is there a way to get it to recognize /dev/hda6 ?
[05:21] <WARlrus> :) thanks, what is it?
[05:22] <_lupine> Go to http://ubuntu.lupine.me.uk/dists/dapper/main/binary-i386
[05:22] <MrZaius> google for gentoo/ubuntu benchmarks
[05:22] <MrZaius> but it's not that big a deal
[05:22] <_lupine> You'll find a load of .deb files
[05:22] <JackMacOKC> Jack_Sparrow: well it depends on what you're doing. you're not going to see a differnce if all you do is surf the web
[05:22] <_lupine> You want to download ralink-config*.deb (should only be one of them)
[05:22] <WARlrus> yeah found that
[05:22] <WARlrus> what do I do with it then?
[05:22] <_lupine> You also want one of the ralink-drivers-2.6.15-26-386 .debs
[05:23] <MrZaius> huh....
[05:23] <Jack_Sparrow> JackMacOKC: The most intensive cpu programs I have... are the screensavers
[05:23] <_lupine> Choose the one with the most recent date
[05:23] <WARlrus> okay
[05:23] <JackMacOKC> Jack_Sparrow: well there ya go ;)
[05:23] <MrZaius> why on earth would gpm be in universe and not main?
[05:23] <fijam> Jack_Sparrow: :D
[05:23] <_lupine> Now you install them. Really simple - in terminal, "sudo dpkg -i <deb-file>"
[05:23] <graveson> i want to install totem-xine and i notice ubuntu-desktop is going to be remove,this is going to cause other issues right ?
[05:23] <user__> helo?
[05:23] <_lupine> Or if you  right-click on them, there might even be a menu option
[05:23] <earthian> how to set up a PPPoE broadband internet connection with adsl modem without internet ??
[05:23] <WARlrus> okay, but how can I transfer them onto my computer running Ubuntu
[05:23] <earthian> i mean without internet access etm
[05:23] <WARlrus> I'm on a different PC atm
[05:23] <fijam> yes, user__ >
[05:23] <user__> can i qeust here me problems :D?
[05:24] <_lupine> WARlus: USB drive?
[05:24] <WARlrus> ah yeah ;)
[05:24] <_lupine> :)
[05:24] <WARlrus> you'll have to talk me through the right command to run
[05:24] <WARlrus> one sec, I'll transfer them first
[05:24] <user__> fijan?
[05:24] <_lupine> np
[05:24] <Jack_Sparrow> !ask
[05:24] <ubotu> Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[05:24] <user__> where i can found me installed programs!??!?!?!
[05:24] <fijam> earthian: what modem?
[05:24] <fijam> user__: hello :)
[05:24] <_lupine>  graveson: shouldn't be a problem. just make sure that you re-install ubuntu-desktop before you upgrade to edgy
[05:25] <earthian> dsl modem connected to computer through a lan cable
[05:25] <Alex_-_> Does anyone know why when I type an address in opera, it opens up whatever address I typed in Firefox and leaves the opera window blank?
[05:25] <Jack_Sparrow> user__: what did you install and how did you install it
[05:25] <cliffd> can I just say I went from being so so about ubuntu to loving it in less then 10 seconds... Ive tried most other distros gentoo, FC, suse, debian, and slackware and none of them supported my bluetooth mouse out of the box. all required a kernel patch and lots of mucking with the xorg.conf. but ubuntu.... just worked (I can belive it) no wonder so many people are converts.
[05:25] <_lupine> (presumably, totem-xine conflicts with a dependency of ubuntu-desktop, which is being removed)
[05:25] <fijam> earthian: what company/model
[05:25] <fijam> user__ what do you mean?
[05:25] <AstralJava> _lupine: I understood that update-manager -d fixes that problem, no?
[05:25] <earthian> ericsson
[05:25] <earthian> some old crap
[05:25] <_lupine> I have no idea - what on earth is update-manager? ;)
[05:26] <Jack_Sparrow> AlexWow, that is a great Opear feature... they finally got smart
[05:26] <WineO> Anyone know how (if possible) to migrate Thunderbird files (mail, contacts, folders) to Evolution?
[05:26] <fernando_> Someone can help about "/usr/lib/cups/backend/http failed" at http print in cups ?
[05:26] <user__> :( im an new ubuntu user, and if i install something, i dont know wherei can find it back :(
[05:26] <sh4dox> hi :D i think i screwed my ubuntu (at least for a little bit) :D when I go to system => log off, there only appear 5  buttons ... the log off and reboot buttons are gone :s can someone help me? :D
[05:26] <_lupine> Alex: Check your MIME types
[05:26] <graveson> _lupine: sorry for my ignorance but what is edgy ?
[05:26] <fijam> earthian: not good. You will have to google thoroughly for a firmware for it
[05:26] <_lupine> next version of Ubuntu - 6.10
[05:26] <Jack_Sparrow> !edgy
[05:26] <ubotu> edgy is the current development version of Ubuntu. Version 6.10, codename "Edgy Eft". For support head to #ubuntu+1. For its release schedule, see !schedule
[05:26] <_lupine> !edgy
[05:26] <_lupine> snap :)
[05:26] <fijam> earthian: your ISP may also provide some kind of instruction
[05:26] <user__> :( im an new ubuntu user, and if i install something, i dont know wherei can find it back :(
[05:26] <user__> :( im an new ubuntu user, and if i install something, i dont know wherei can find it back :(
[05:26] <_lupine> user_: look in synaptic
[05:26] <StephenL> !schedule
[05:26] <ubotu> Ubuntu uses a strict timetable for releases, which means that sometimes newly released programs miss the timetable. See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/TimeBasedReleases for more. Edgy schedule: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/EdgyReleaseSchedule
[05:26] <Jack_Sparrow> user__: what did you install and how did you install it
[05:27] <fijam> user__: What did you install?
[05:27] <tmcm> hello.
[05:27] <fernando_> hello
[05:27] <fijam> hello
[05:27] <Jack_Sparrow> hello
[05:27] <tmcm> i installed the last round of changes from the updates and now
[05:27] <JackMacOKC> hello?
[05:27] <manux> Anyone has got the surecom pcmcia wireless?
[05:27] <fernando_> My problem is "/usr/lib/cups/backend/http failed" with cups.
[05:27] <AstralJava> _lupine: http://daniel.holba.ch/blog/?p=14
[05:27] <m_0_r_0_n> where do I find the messages of the last boot process
[05:27] <Jack_Sparrow> user__: That is not a hard question...
[05:27] <user__> jack_sparrow: i installed wine, with synaptic !
[05:27] <user__> jack_sparrow: i installed wine, with synaptic !
[05:27] <user__> jack_sparrow: i installed wine, with synaptic !
[05:27] <JackMacOKC> m_0_r_0_n: dmesg
[05:28] <tmcm> i installed the last round of xorg changes from the automatic updates and now my x server won't start
[05:28] <tmcm> any ideas?
[05:28] <_lupine> it'll be listed in synaptioc then
[05:28] <fernando_> In Debian I can print normally in http://<IP_ADDRESS>:631/printers/hp820, but not with Kubuntu 6.06
[05:28] <_lupine> presumably, you're looking for a menu icon - there isn't one
[05:28] <cliffd> can somone tell me about upgrades, when Edgy becomes the stable version, will I be able to do an inline/inplace upgrade or will I need to re install?
[05:28] <user__> jack_sparrow: i installed wine, with synaptic !
[05:28] <JackMacOKC> user__: yes, we heard you the 1st time
[05:28] <_lupine> cliffd: should be able to just upgrade
[05:28] <user__> jack_sparrow: sorry
[05:29] <fijam> user__: Try running a termianl and typing wine
[05:29] <AstralJava> cliffd: You can, with update-manager or aptitude dist-upgrade
[05:29] <_lupine> assuming you haven't broken your install too badly ;)
[05:29] <WARlrus> sorry _lupin, having problems with my USB ports, I've only got 2 lol. I'm almost done transferring those files
[05:29] <JackMacOKC> tmcm, you need to update your repos and download the newer version to fix xorg
[05:30] <AnotherAlex> I'm so confused.
[05:30] <earthian> \o/
[05:30] <earthian> grub loading
[05:30] <_lupine> np
[05:30] <earthian> and then error 2
[05:30] <tmcm> i'm running ubuntu 6.06.1 LTS and i have an nvidia geforce fx 5200
[05:30] <user__> fijam what means  termial? or what u say
[05:30] <cliffd> _lupine AstralJava: so once its out if im up to date with my system ill roll over into edgy?
[05:30] <earthian> fuck that i am goind back to windoze :((((
[05:30] <earthian> too much of a pain for a stupid install
[05:30] <fijam> user__: I made a typ. termianal
[05:30] <_lupine> cliffd: yes
[05:30] <fijam> *typo
[05:30] <tmcm> JackMacOKC: what should i update them to?
[05:30] <cliffd> _lupine: thanks much.
[05:30] <kodute> anyone tried to run Ultramonkey or Heartbeat on ubuntu?
[05:30] <zmo> hi
[05:30] <AnotherAlex> can someone tell me why when i type an address in opera, it opens the address i typed in firefox, and leaves the opera window blank?
[05:30] <JackMacOKC> tmcm, there was a stick about this for awhile. let me get the info for you again
[05:30] <zmo> I just installed ubuntu on my new box
[05:31] <synic> kodute: I am using heartbeat
[05:31] <synic> er... was, for drbd
[05:31] <zmo> and I discovered I bought a ATI (don't care much about hardware)
[05:31] <_lupine>  AnotherAlex: check your MIME types
[05:31] <Jack_Sparrow> user__: there is a channel called #wine for more info
[05:31] <_lupine> presumably, Opera isn't the default application
[05:31] <zmo> are there proprietary drivers installable from apt ?
[05:31] <zmo> where shall I RTFM about that ?
[05:31] <_lupine> zmo: linux-restricted-drivers package
[05:31] <WARlrus> okay, I have those 2 files on the desktop, how do I go about running them?
[05:31] <_lupine> s/drivers/modules
[05:31] <zmo> _lupine - thanks
[05:31] <AstralJava> zmo: apt-cache search fglrx
[05:31] <_lupine> WARlus: if you right-click, there might be an option to install them
[05:31] <zmo> any link to good RTFM ?
[05:32] <Jack_Sparrow> !ati
[05:32] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[05:32] <_lupine> if not, then open a terminal window and cd to your desktop
[05:32] <JackMacOKC> tmcm: you want xserver-xorg-core 1.0.2-0ubuntu10.4
[05:32] <zmo> thanks you all
[05:32] <Jack_Sparrow> np
[05:32] <kodute> synic: i tried to install it but i had missing lib files. and couldn't get the correct ones from apt-get
[05:32] <JackMacOKC> tmcm: if you apt-get udpate, you should see that version out there now and be able to pull it in to fix xserver
[05:33] <WARlrus> Yeah, found that option :) I'll install then get back to you ;)
[05:33] <_lupine> ok
[05:33] <samuelbarrett> hi all im new
[05:33] <fijam> hello samuelbarrett
[05:33] <StephenL> Anyone know of a good guide for pam_mount?  I keep getting the error pam_mount: bad number of args for volume
[05:33] <Jack_Sparrow> Welcome
[05:33] <samuelbarrett> hi
[05:34] <WARlrus> okay, I've done that
[05:34] <slaxy> hi guys
[05:34] <samuelbarrett> i used to use pclinuos but when i upgraded it had to many problems
[05:34] <WARlrus> do I reboot now?
[05:34] <fijam> hello slaxy
[05:34] <_lupine> WARlus: no need
[05:34] <_lupine> first, make sure the rausb0 interface is DOWN
[05:34] <fernando_> quit
[05:34] <WARlrus> :D I'll give it a go now then
[05:34] <WARlrus> okay...
[05:34] <_lupine> then "sudo rmmod rt2570"
[05:34] <ScislaC> anyone know how to view the contents of a directory that is in lost+found?
[05:34] <_lupine> then "sudo modprobe rausb0"
[05:35] <_lupine> erm, "sudo modprobe rt2570"
[05:35] <_lupine> d'oh
[05:35] <slaxy> i was planning to download and install KDE with ubuntu .... where do i start ??
[05:35] <_lupine> After that, run "sudo rutilt"
[05:35] <erUSUL> !kubuntu
[05:35] <ubotu> Kubuntu is Ubuntu with KDE, the K Desktop Environment. For more info see http://kubuntu.org ; to install from Ubuntu: sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop. To downgrade your version of kubuntu to an older version see: http://www.linuxfordummies.org/index.php?topic=609.0
[05:35] <WARlrus> lol okay, just give me a second!
[05:35] <_lupine> slaxy: start with kubuntu-desktop
[05:35] <_lupine> snap :)
[05:35] <erUSUL> !kubuntu > slaxy
[05:35] <_lupine> NP WARlrus
[05:35] <Jack_Sparrow> ScislaC: have you tried gksudo nautilus
[05:36] <tmcm> JackMacOKC: thank you very much
[05:36] <tmcm> that fixed the problem
[05:36] <JackMacOKC> tmcm: good deal
[05:36] <tmcm> bye
[05:36] <AnotherAlex> ok, i feel dumb- that was easy
[05:36] <AnotherAlex> thanks _lupine
[05:37] <_lupine> np
[05:37] <slaxy> well i dont want to install Kubuntu.... since i already have ubuntu... anyway.. starting kubuntu-desktop means... kde should already be available .. as far as my info goes, it is not there in my ubuntu.. also as far as i know.. i need to download kde.. and how do i do the whole thing...
[05:38] <ScislaC> Jack_Sparrow: the problem is actually SPECIFICALLY that my gksudo command doesn't work, and I think that the dir that is in lost+found may be the reason :)  (It was working, had a power failure, had to manually run fsck, now gksudo fails to do anything or throw any errors)
[05:38] <fijam> slaxy: sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop
[05:38] <JackMacOKC> slaxy: installing kubuntu-desktop installs the core kde components
[05:38] <WARlrus> Critical error: Can't find "adhocmode" private ioctl. Code: 158
[05:38] <WARlrus> I get that error when running sudo rutilt
[05:38] <Jack_Sparrow> ScislaC: how about sudo  ... same thing
[05:38] <seatouch> hi can anyone tell e how to change the broadcasting ip of a interface?
[05:39] <erUSUL> ScislaC: maybe fsck could only recover the dir but not its contents :(
[05:39] <slaxy> thx fijam, JackMacOKC ... how do i change the gui to kubuntu
[05:39] <erUSUL> seatouch: ifconfig ?
[05:39] <_lupine> hmm. OK, rmmod the rt2570 module again
[05:39] <seatouch> erUSUL,  yeah
[05:39] <ScislaC> Jack_Sparrow: just did that :) thanks for the pointer
[05:39] <JackMacOKC> slaxy: sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop
[05:39] <seatouch> erUSUL, i tried with ifconfig eth1:2 -broadcast <IP_ADDRESS>
[05:39] <Jack_Sparrow> np
[05:39] <_lupine> then run "find /lib/`uname -r` -name rt2570"
[05:39] <seatouch> erUSUL,  as ip changes the broadcasting ip changes
[05:39] <seatouch> erUSUL,  i dont want that to happen
[05:39] <ScislaC> erUSUL: and it looks like you're correct... it does have the dir, no contents though :(
[05:40] <_lupine> erm, find /lib/modules/`uname -r` -name rt257
[05:40] <fijam> slaxy: when you install kubuntu-desktop and reboot you will be able to choose kubuntu at the login screen
[05:40] <jrib> slaxy: at the login screen you can click on options on the bottom left of the screen and select your window manager
[05:40] <Jack_Sparrow> ScislaC: sudo nautilus --no-desktop/media   is a better choice
[05:40] <_lupine> erm, find /lib/modules/`uname -r` -name rt2570.ko
[05:40] <_lupine> sorry
[05:40] <Jack_Sparrow> ScislaC: a little safer
[05:40] <_lupine> brain freeze there!
[05:42] <RMorris85> can u change from ubuntu to kubuntu ?
[05:42] <WARlrus> okay, that seemed to work
[05:42] <jrib> RMorris85: you can install the kubuntu-desktop package to get kubuntu as well as ubuntu
[05:42] <_lupine> WARlus: did it list one or two files?
[05:42] <WARlrus> it found the file
[05:42] <erUSUL> seatouch: maybe the broadcast adress you try is incompatible with the ip adress iirc they are closely related (google for ip calculator)
[05:42] <fijam> RMorris85: yes
[05:43] <WARlrus> one
[05:43] <RMorris85> how hard is it?
[05:43] <RMorris85> what do i have to do?
[05:43] <seatouch> erUSUL,  yeah might be
[05:43] <_lupine> erUSUL: www.dnsstuff.com is great for that sort of thing :)
[05:43] <WineO> How do I make iptables start and load a saved (iptables-save) config at startup?
[05:43] <_lupine> iptables-restore
[05:43] <fijam> RMorris85: sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop
[05:43] <jrib> RMorris85: 'sudo aptitude install kubuntu-desktop' in a terminal, done
[05:43] <fijam> RMorris85: pleasent and easy
[05:43] <anthony> heya I'm trying to install a canon iP1500 using this: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=56725&highlight=ip1500 , only the first link is broken! can anyone link me to an update for libc6 ?
[05:43] <_lupine> WARlus: not very good :(. Is it an ad-hoc network you're trying to connect to ?
[05:43] <fijam> jrib: we are answering simultanously :)
[05:44] <Jack_Sparrow> WineO: I would use one of the firewall managers like firestarter or guarddog
[05:44] <WineO> _lupine: right, but how to make it happen automatically?
[05:44] <erUSUL> seatouch: http://jodies.de/ipcalc?host=<IP_ADDRESS>&mask1=24&mask2=
[05:44] <WARlrus> erm what do you mean by "ad-hoc"?
[05:44] <WARlrus> its just an open network
[05:44] <WARlrus> that is used by some other PC's on a network (all windows)
[05:44] <samuelbarrett> where are the cookies kept in ubuntu?
[05:44] <_lupine> WineO: stick it in /etc/rc?.d somewhere
[05:44] <seatouch> thanks
[05:44] <_lupine> WARlrus: ok try a reboot (ack)
[05:44] <fijam> samuelbarrett: it depends on browser, I think
[05:44] <WARlrus> okay
[05:44] <ScislaC> now that's weird... so, none of my apps from the administration menu will launch, but if I type the commands that the shortcuts store in a terminal window, they launch fine... anyone know why that would be?
[05:44] <samuelbarrett> im using firefox
[05:45] <erUSUL> samuelbarrett: if you use ff under ~/.mozilla/firefox/ afaik
[05:45] <_lupine> possible that *something* is out of date
[05:45] <WARlrus> well I can't update anything until connected on that PC
[05:45] <WARlrus> vicious circle
[05:45] <yoshiznit123> hey everyone, i'm trying to mount an ext3 partition on /media/data and it keeps saying " /dev/hdb1 already mounted or /media/share busy" although I know its not mounted...?
[05:46] <_lupine> WARlrus: it should "just work"
[05:46] <erUSUL> yoshiznit123: /media/share and /media/data are not the same
[05:46] <_lupine> bit of a PITA if it doesn't
[05:46] <fijam> yoshiznit123: you sure it does not get mounted automagically somewhere else?
[05:47] <subpar> is it possible to run amarok in gnome?
[05:47] <fijam> subpar: why not?
[05:47] <_lupine> subpar: yes
[05:47] <erUSUL> subpar: yes
[05:47] <yoshiznit123> erUSUL, oops, i'm trying to mount both /media/data and /media/share and both don't work :-(
[05:47] <subpar> hm
[05:47] <jrib> subpar: yes
[05:47] <yoshiznit123> fijam, no I don't think so, its not in mtab or /proc/mounts
[05:47] <AstralJava> subpar: Sure is, but when installing it will pull some needed kde libraries.
[05:47] <_lupine> but it means you'll need to load all the KDE libraries as well
[05:47] <subpar> right
[05:47] <_lupine> (bit of a performance hit, but not too bad)
[05:47] <fijam> yoshiznit123: ok
[05:47] <WARlrus> okay, I've rebooted
[05:47] <_lupine> plus it'll look a bit out of place ;)
[05:47] <WARlrus> should I try activating?
[05:47] <anthony> heya I'm trying to install a canon iP1500 using this: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=56725&highlight=ip1500 , only the first link is broken! can anyone link me to an update for libc6 ?
[05:48] <_lupine> OK, is the rt2570 module loaded? (lsmod)
[05:48] <subpar> AstralJava: right, I installed kdelibs and amarok, but when I run amarok it sends me load way up
[05:48] <WARlrus> how do I check that?
[05:48] <_lupine> run lsmod
[05:48] <_lupine> look for rt2570 in the list
[05:48] <_lupine> (near the top usually)
[05:48] <_lupine> amarok is a busy app. anyway
[05:48] <_lupine> what sort of load are we talking?
[05:48] <AstralJava> subpar: I remember once trying it and it consumed an awful lot of resources...
[05:49] <erUSUL> WARlrus: lsmod | grep rt2570 works equally well
[05:49] <subpar> oh, so I should just tough it out
[05:49] <AstralJava> subpar: If you insist on running it. :)
[05:49] <Jack_Sparrow> anthony: there must be something wrong with that package if they pulled it
[05:49] <WARlrus> nope, its not there
[05:49] <_lupine> WARlrus: ok modprobe it
[05:50] <_lupine> (so sudo modprobe rt2570)
[05:50] <subpar> heh
[05:50] <subpar> thanks :)
[05:50] <Jack_Sparrow> anthony: It was marked as testing.. use at your own risk etc..
[05:50] <_lupine> then check lsmod again (as erUSUL pointed out, | grep rt2570 works)
[05:50] <fijam> yoshiznit123: what is the excatc command you use for mounting?
[05:50] <yoshiznit123> hmm, fijam, the thing is when i do "sudo mke2fs -j /dev/hdb1" it says "/dev/hdb1 is apparently in use by the system; will not make a filesystem here!"
[05:50] <yoshiznit123> fijam, "sudo mount /dev/hdb1"
[05:50] <WARlrus> okay
[05:50] <_lupine> My amarokapp is using... 10% of my RAM (so 51.2M), and 4% of CPU (so 175mhz)
[05:50] <AstralJava> subpar: I'm not of course sure whether they could be done something about it, who knows. I never cared much for it anyhow...
[05:50] <yoshiznit123> and it's already in fstab...
[05:51] <jbroome> On the server install, am i missing something, or are the headers for the installed kernel not available
[05:51] <fijam> yoshiznit123: if it is in fstab it could be mounted automatically
[05:51] <yoshiznit123> fijam, this might be a bug with the installer? i just installed with the new dapper cd, this didn't happen before (it's the alternate cd, and i chose different mount points from the installer...)
[05:52] <WARlrus> yes, its there now
[05:52] <anthony> Jack_Sparrow, yeah, I'm a little scared!  I've tried to install this sodding thing many times, and I have to say, if I can't print, no more linux for me I'm afraid :(
[05:52] <fijam> yoshiznit123: very strange
[05:52] <_lupine> ok, try sudo rutilt again
[05:52] <WARlrus> same error
[05:52] <RMorris85> after i do the sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop what do i have to do to get to kubutu?
[05:52] <yoshiznit123> fijam, can you check the permissions of folders in your /media?
[05:53] <_lupine>  WARlrus: very strange... ok, can you bring the interface up in the usual manner?
[05:53] <Jack_Sparrow> anthony: If you chose your OS based on your printer... good luck...  I shelved my cannon to run a better OS
[05:53] <WARlrus> the network interface?
[05:53] <_lupine> yes
[05:53] <WARlrus> okay
[05:53] <_lupine> so sudo ifup -a (if it's in /etc/network/interfaces)
[05:53] <fijam> yoshiznit123: on hdd, which are FAT I have 777
[05:53] <_lupine> or just ifconfig rausb0 up
[05:54] <_lupine> (++sudo)
[05:54] <yoshiznit123> ok thanks, hmm i think i'll look around for a while
[05:55] <WARlrus> YES! ITS NOT CRASHING!
[05:55] <WARlrus> its activated!
[05:55] <_lupine> w00t :)
[05:55] <WARlrus> moment of truth, will it load internet
[05:55] <AstralJava> RMorris85: Log out, and choose kdm or Kubuntu or whatever it is called in the options.
[05:55] <WARlrus> OMG IT WORKS!
[05:55] <Jack_Sparrow> cool
[05:56] <WARlrus> _lupine - I could kiss you :D
[05:56] <AustLaw`> is there a website with a lot of gnome themes somewhere?
[05:56] <Jack_Sparrow> gnome-look.org
[05:56] <WARlrus> thank you so so so so much man!
[05:56] <Jack_Sparrow> 1 in 10 dont work
[05:56] <_lupine> right, so at a consultancy rate of 8000/hr, I think that's about 600 ;)
[05:56] <_lupine> j/k
[05:56] <WARlrus> I think this is the point I run ;P
[05:56] <_lupine> Glad you got it working.
[05:56] <WARlrus> Thank you so much :)
[05:56] <_lupine> You'll need to update the ralink-drivers deb every time you update the kernel
[05:56] <constantine-xvi> beagle is not searching my stuff
[05:57] <WARlrus> Off that site you gave me?
[05:57] <_lupine> I'll be trying to keep the "repo" up to date
[05:57] <_lupine> yes
[05:57] <WARlrus> Okay, thank you :) I will bookmark it
[05:57] <_lupine> if the site dies for whatever reason, though, you'll need to compile your own...
[05:57] <RMorris85> i get an error when i do the sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop
[05:57] <WARlrus> Well I'll cross that bridge when and if I come to it ;)
[05:57] <anthony> Jack_Sparrow, I've had SO many problems with linux.  I've written them all down and I'll link to them when I give up.  then I'll try using Ubuntu is a couple of years time, when (hopefully) it has more support for all my stuff
[05:57] <_lupine> ...the site for the source code is http://rt2x00.serialmonkey.com
[05:57] <WARlrus> okay, thanks :)
[05:58] <_lupine> might as well bookmark that too
[05:58] <fijam> RMorris85: what error?
[05:58] <AstralJava> RMorris85: Which kind of an error would that be?
[05:58] <RMorris85> Some packages could not be installed. This may mean that you have
[05:58] <RMorris85> requested an impossible situation or if you are using the unstable
[05:58] <RMorris85> distribution that some required packages have not yet been created
[05:58] <RMorris85> or been moved out of Incoming.
[05:58] <martii> anyone noticed problem with ubuntu and matrox g550? agp?
[05:58] <WARlrus> Thanks once again :)
[05:58] <brucedes> Just installed ppc ubuntu, but it never asked me what root password I want to use, so whats the default one?
[05:58] <constantine-xvi> i can not get beagle to search my documents
[05:58] <WARlrus> and let the hours of Ubuntu fun begin!!!
[05:58] <RMorris85> The following packages have unmet dependencies:
[05:58] <RMorris85>   kubuntu-desktop: Depends: language-selector-qt but it is not going to be installed
[05:58] <RMorris85> E: Broken packages
[05:58] <Jack_Sparrow> anthony: good luck with that philosophy...
[05:58] <anthony> Jack_Sparrow, mind you, most of the stuff is not hardware-support-related, more trying-to-get-linux-to-work-related
[05:58] <anthony> Jack_Sparrow, you think it' bad?
[05:59] <WineO> Is it possible to install ubuntu on a new drive and partition with LVM?
[05:59] <fijam> RMorris85: it should work anyway
[05:59] <user__> ok someome get help me??
[05:59] <user__> plz private chat
[05:59] <cliffd> WineO: use the alternate CD
[05:59] <npster> What is a good disassembler decomplier for linux that supports lot of languages and binary files such as .exe ?
[06:00] <user__> some can help me
[06:00] <wozniak> has anyone heard of a system crash while using firefox, but only on a wireless connection?
[06:00] <Jack_Sparrow> anthony: You already said if you cant get your printer to work you will be going back to windows..
[06:00] <jrib> RMorris85: what command gave you that error?  Also, please post the contents of your /etc/apt/sources.list on http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org and give us a link
[06:00] <brucedes> user: no, not at all, thats why we're all in support channel :P
[06:00] <RMorris85> sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop
[06:00] <jrib> user__: what is your question?
[06:00] <WineO> cliffd: does that support AMD64?
[06:00] <_lupine> wozniak: most likely the driver is crashing and burning under load, causing the kernel to die as well
[06:00] <_lupine> try a driver update
[06:00] <_lupine> driver==kernel module, of course
[06:01] <Jack_Sparrow> anthony: Basing your choince of OS on a printer that costs little more than the ink cartridges inside it does not make sense
[06:01] <zmo> re
[06:01] <AstralJava> RMorris85: Please do as jrib suggested, I suspect you're using a mirror which isn't working at the moment. This package is in main, so it should just work(tm).
[06:01] <wozniak> lupine: im slighty new, can you get me started on that?
[06:01] <anthony> Jack_Sparrow, and then retrying linux in a couple of years
[06:01] <cliffd> WineO: yes
[06:01] <_lupine> ok, do you know what chipset your card is?
[06:01] <brucedes> Does anyone know why the search bar in Firefox doesn't work? I hit enter and it doesn't search (using ppc btw)
[06:01] <cliffd> WineO: http://ubuntu.cs.utah.edu/releases/6.06/ at the bottom
[06:01] <RMorris85> uh, i have a problem, theres only three things in there.
[06:01] <jrib> !easysource > RMorris85
[06:02] <_lupine> if not, just pastebin the contents of the terminal command "lsmod" while the wireless interface is up
[06:02] <anthony> Jack_Sparrow, why would I buy a new printer if I can use this one with windows?! one option is free, the other not
[06:02] <Jack_Sparrow> anthony: You will spend more on anti-vir and anti-spyware and anti-ad-ware than you paid for that printer
[06:02] <wozniak> lupine: what does that even mean
[06:02] <anthony> Jack_Sparrow, nope it's all free through my uni at the moment
[06:02] <wozniak> lupine: and no, i don t k now the chipset of my wireless
[06:03] <zmo> I got a dualcore 64bits AMD processor, and I'm not sure what the right thing to do. Right know I'm on a fresh ubuntu 6.06.1 install for 32bits... Can I, based on this install, recompile the kernel in 64bits and the few software I like to have optimized, or will I get into trouble mixing 64/42 bits codes ?
[06:03] <mcphail> zmo: you need a fresh install to go from 32 to 64bit
[06:03] <Jack_Sparrow> anthony: Good to know our tax dollars are helping
[06:03] <_lupine> wozniak: open up a terminal window, and type "lsmod"
[06:03] <Glombool> can anyone tell me where to get a version of libxine that will play commercial dvds?
[06:03] <_lupine> then copy and paste the output into...

[06:04] <zmo> mcphail - well, I've been told that ubuntu 64bits is not as good as the 32bits version
[06:04] <zmo> (based on friends experience...)
[06:04] <jbroome> but it has more bits!
[06:04] <anthony> Jack_Sparrow, sorry missread - I'm in the UK, and I pay for the stuff idirectly through uni
[06:04] <Glombool> thnx
[06:04] <mcphail> zmo: the 32 bit version will offer the easiest user experience
[06:04] <Jack_Sparrow> anthony: They pay or you pay.. someone pays...
[06:05] <Jack_Sparrow> anthony: It is just silly to chose an OS based on a used printer
[06:05] <fijam> kind of true
[06:05] <zmo> mcphail - well, my point is not about easy or not, but about not loosing time doing unuseful stuff
[06:05] <RMorris85> i regenerated my source list and it gave me the same error as before... :-/
[06:05] <wozniak> lupine: can you tell me what to look for here?
[06:05] <anthony> Jack_Sparrow, it's not just the printer though.  how do I send you a file?
[06:05] <Redrose> Ok, i've tried getting freecycle, but it failed, can anyone name a garageband look alike that's in the apt repo?

[06:06] <mr_smeega1> any ideas
[06:06] <brucedes> does anyone know a good m4a codec that'll work with banshee?
[06:06] <AstralJava> RMorris85: Did you do apt-get update?
[06:06] <mr_smeega1> how do i remove that eplugin
[06:06] <RMorris85> i can
[06:06] <Jack_Sparrow> anthony: This is NOT the place for this discussion, this is a place for people to get help with an OS they want to use. You have made up your mind...  Enjoy your choice as I will enjoy mine
[06:07] <mr_smeega1> anyone
[06:07] <anthony> Jack_Sparrow, you are of course right.  My apologies.

[06:08] <yoshiznit123> hey fijam, i found the problem in the forums - completely removing the evms package worked, but it's kind of nasty (for one, ubuntu-standard gets removed) do you know any other workarounds?
[06:08] <WineO> What app do I use for LVM?  Is there a gnome frontend for it?
[06:08] <fijam> yoshiznit123: nope
[06:08] <fijam> yoshiznit123: strange issue
[06:08] <yoshiznit123> yea...
[06:08] <Redrose> Ok, i've tried getting freecycle, but it failed, can anyone name a garageband look alike that's in the apt repo?
[06:09] <yoshiznit123> how would I just stop evms from starting on boot? (without modifying initscripts and all)
[06:09] <RMorris85> i ran the update and it said -- E: Could not open lock file /var/lib/apt/lists/lock - open (13 Permission denied)

[06:09] <nagyv_> I would like to install ubuntu in an IBM Thinkpad 600. The downloaded alternative CD can not start. It asks for a 2nd CD. I have tried with an original Breezy CD. There the install CD started, but the Live did not. Are there any changec that if I install Breezy it will work well after with Dapper well?
[06:09] <AstralJava> RMorris85: sudo apt-get update
[06:09] <AstralJava> ;)
[06:10] <RMorris85> E: Some index files failed to download, they have been ignored, or old ones used instead.
[06:10] <yoshiznit123> nagyv_, what do you mean when you say it asks for another cd? the alternate CD should only have one
[06:11] <W_McL> nagyv_: install breezy, after that edit /etc/apt/sources.list and change any "breezy" to "dapper", do aapt-get update and a apt-get dist-upgrade
[06:11] <evil-tux> nalioth hablas espaol?
[06:11] <AstralJava> RMorris85: Okay, please paste that /etc/apt/sources.list so we can have a look -> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org
[06:11] <nalioth> evil-tux: no, vaya a #ubuntu-es por espaol, por favor
[06:11] <AstralJava> RMorris85: It's obvious that file isn't quite right.
[06:12] <brucedes> I was wondering if anyone knew of keymaps for macintosh keyboards? Since they have different keysets to standard keyboards

[06:13] <nalioth> brucedes: the mac keyboard is listed in your preferences
[06:13] <AstralJava> RMorris85: Thanks, having a look now...
[06:13] <WineO> What app do I use for LVM?  Is there a gnome frontend for it?

[06:14] <gre1> srry for callin u man whores the other day
[06:15] <AstralJava> RMorris85: Could be that the us.* mirror isn't working 100% atm. Try again later, or if you feel brave, use another mirror -> change 'us' to some other country code, or leave the country codes out completely.
[06:15] <AstralJava> RMorris85: But other than that, the file looks to be just right now.
[06:15] <ra1> how to remove a module and it folders from cvs
[06:15] <RMorris85> feeling brave?
[06:16] <AstralJava> RMorris85: :) I just mean that if you feel like editing that file by hand.
[06:16] <RMorris85> just take out all the us.
[06:16] <RMorris85> ?
[06:17] <AstralJava> RMorris85: That should work.
[06:17] <evil-tux> nalioth yes but with evil-tux when eviltux expires nick?

[06:20] <earthian> can anybody help me install ubuntu on a raid thing? i am newbie to all tech things and stuff. and i do not have internet on the computer i am trying to install ubuntu... and i have like 1 floppy disk :)
[06:20] <AstralJava> RMorris85: Is it the same error msg?
[06:20] <earthian> help1!!

[06:20] <earthian> that wont help me a lot :S
[06:20] <earthian> i am using livecd
[06:20] <erUSUL> earthian: did you enabled the raid functions in the bios?
[06:20] <r466er> cenix , but not every user is shown in this file; cause i know that a user belongs to a group, but in the file /etc/group stands nothing that this user belongs to the group i know
[06:20] <earthian> yea
[06:20] <earthian> the disk in partition magic is 500gb now
[06:21] <earthian> windows does find it
[06:21] <AstralJava> RMorris85: That's weird. I'm getting no errors.
[06:21] <RMorris85> The following packages have unmet dependencies: kubuntu-desktop: Depends: language-selector-qt but it is not going to be installed
[06:21] <earthian> but ubunti sees only 2 hdds with 250gb each
[06:21] <Cenix_> and what about the standard gnome user manager?
[06:21] <earthian> gparted does not see any partitions
[06:21] <earthian> nothing
[06:21] <earthian> :(
[06:21] <earthian> i am stuck
[06:21] <Cenix_> oh yeah, I see
[06:22] <Cenix_> the main group is indeed not in /etc/group
[06:22] <Cenix_> that one is to be found in /etc/passwd
[06:22] <r466er> ok thx
[06:22] <Jack_Sparrow> earthian: did you even read that link on setting up a raid on ubuntu
[06:22] <Cenix_> (the groupid is in there I mean)
[06:22] <earthian> yea i read it.
[06:22] <Cenix_> (you'll have too lookup what group name it is in /etc/group that corresponds to that gid)
[06:22] <earthian> it wont make the raid bootable
[06:22] <earthian> ?
[06:22] <Jack_Sparrow> earthian: And you dont understand why you see two 250's and not a single 500?
[06:22] <erUSUL> earthian: that's it linux afaik does not support this configuration you have to disable raid in the bios and use software raid through dm and lvm. if you plan to dual boot with windows keep in mind that windows does not support the linux raid and viceversa
[06:23] <earthian> omg
[06:23] <ScislaC> mcphail: yeah, I had that issue at home... I'm not using the beerorkid repos here at the office though
[06:24] <tomveens> hey

[06:25] <AstralJava> RMorris85: Did you insert that modified /etc/apt/sources.list in the original's place?
[06:25] <RMorris85> i thought that was the og
[06:25] <AstralJava> RMorris85: Sounds like you still have the install cd in there, which isn't shown in the pastebin entry.
[06:25] <slytherin> RMorris85: Did you edit /etc/apt/sources.list to add/delete CD entry recently?
[06:25] <RMorris85> no
[06:25] <RMorris85> ?
[06:26] <ScislaC> erUSUL: K... so I did that and it doesn't error or anything... I do get prompted for the password in the terminal, but it just hangs.

[06:26] <zmo> hm... is the -k7 kernel optimized for 64bits ?
[06:26] <cliffd> question, I just installed ubuntu 6.06, and the kernel is 2.6.15, will it update to 2.6.17 or is that where it stays until Edgy comes out?
[06:27] <arno> could anyone try to tell me what's wrong? ftp://<IP_ADDRESS>
[06:27] <RMorris85>  / etc/apt/source.list
[06:27] <slytherin> zmo: what do you mean by that?
[06:27] <Jack_Sparrow> zmo: Personally, I would stick with the 686
[06:27] <AstralJava> RMorris85: Are you sure? It should be /etc/apt/sources.list
