[12:01] <sotos> can anyone help me?
[12:01] <chuckyp> !wifi > Nox_ville
[12:01] <rwscold> !wifi
[12:01] <ubotu> Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs
[12:01] <Tokenbad> eyequeue, I installed with apt-get....the dpkg would work with it even though was done with apt-get?
[12:01] <chuckyp> !ask | sotos
[12:01] <ubotu> sotos: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[12:01] <eyequeue> Tokenbad, correct
[12:01] <Mirro> hey
[12:01] <Mirro> i installed glx and compiy
[12:01] <chuckyp> Tokenbad, yes but you can just apt-get remove --purge nameoffnpackage
[12:02] <chuckyp> Tokenbad, that will get rid of configs
[12:02] <Tokenbad> eyequeue, so I would use the package name when use dpkg --purge?
[12:02] <eyequeue> Mirro, #ubuntu-xgl
[12:02] <eyequeue> !compiz
[12:02] <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
[12:02] <Tokenbad> chuckyp, that command isn't working though
[12:02] <eyequeue> Tokenbad, correct again :)
[12:02] <chuckyp> Tokenbad, what is the name of the package?
[12:03] <Nox_ville> i think ive got a problem with my laptop (Dapper) ... whenever i run an adminstrative task (Synaptic, configuring anything.. ) the window doesn't load but is shown on the bottom window bar.
[12:03] <tazman> how to install downloads
[12:03] <Tokenbad> chuckyp, vmware-player
[12:03] <npodges> tazman, like what doewnloads?
[12:03] <chuckyp> Tokenbad, okay try sudo apt-get remove --purge vmware-player  what is the output?
[12:03] <jhasse> I want to develop with wxwidgets. Which packets do i have to install? I have already installed everything with wx and 2.6
[12:03] <eugman> Is there any reason trying to upgrade might be disconnecting my laptop from the internet?
[12:03] <eyequeue> Tokenbad, sudo dpkg --purge vmware-player, then
[12:03] <chuckyp> Tokenbad, if that doesn't work do sudo apt-get --purge vmware-player  because I could have sworn you don't need the remove flag
[12:04] <eyequeue> Tokenbad, no reason to "get" the package, lol
[12:04] <chuckyp> Tokenbad, if neither of those work then you could sudo aptitude purge vmware-player  I know that will work.

[12:04] <NeoThermic> the update to 6.10 is failing :S
[12:04] <Mirro> but it doesnt start with compiz-start....
[12:04] <chuckyp> !install > tazman
[12:06] <Tokenbad> something still there...cause it still will not let me install vmware-server...cause it still says vmware software installed
[12:06] <Sgeo> Too late to go back now I guess..
[12:06] <Yoques> Hola... se que sois muchos, as que saludos
[12:06] <Sgeo> Why is it stuck on "Fetching file 18 of 20"?
[12:06] <erUSUL> !es

[12:06] <tazman> open download to install  .rpm
[12:06] <Nox_ville> i think ive got a problem with my laptop (Dapper) ... whenever i run an adminstrative task (Synaptic, configuring anything.. ) the window doesn't load but is shown on the bottom window bar.
[12:06] <chuckyp> Tokenbad, if you are using the purge switch nothing is still there.  It removes configs and everything.
[12:07] <Yoques> Gracias :D
[12:07] <NeoThermic> my internet is so slow the update tool says: "Downloading file 2 of 2 with unknown speed"
[12:07] <Mirro> compiz-start says there is no such command. what should i do_ i just installed it....
[12:07] <Nox_ville> how can i fix this
[12:07] <chuckyp> Mirro, /j #ubuntu-xgl

[12:10] <jeeves_Moss> all:  has any one updated to the newest release?
[12:10] <Stormx2> YAY edgy :)
[12:10] <dr`venom> hey guys is there an ubuntu version optomized for laptops? I would really like to be able to undervolt as I am able to do with xp.
[12:10] <jeeves_Moss> *:  is there an easy way to do it?  or is it still unstable?
[12:10] <axisys> my upgrade went pretty smooth with that just command
[12:10] <Sgeo> Un... unstable?
[12:10] <Sgeo> You mean my computer might be unusable?
[12:10] <J_K9> Quick question - anyone know why the Ubuntu updates have broken Compiz/XGL? I no longer get a bar at the top of each window (the minimize, maximise, close bar - all of it)
[12:11] <Sgeo> Ohshiohshiohshi
[12:11] <Stormx2> Sgeo: Hmm?
[12:11] <Tokenbad> chuckyp something has to be there that is causing the vmware-server not to install
[12:11] <jeeves_Moss> Sgeo: have you upgraded?
[12:11] <J_K9> dr`venom - no, but there is xubuntu ;)
[12:11] <Nox_ville> chuckp: can u help me?
[12:11] <axisys> J_K9: edgy don't support compiz.. uneed beryl
[12:11] <dr`venom> xubunbu is better for laptops than ubuntu?
[12:11] <Stormx2> My dapper --> edgy upgrade went perfect, which is a first. My hoary --> breezy and breezy --> dapper upgrades killed it ;-)
[12:12] <fluvvell> dr`venom, I have ubuntu dapper running fine on a centrino hp 6120 laptop
[12:12] <jeeves_Moss> Stormx2:  well, what is the command line syntax to upgrade?
[12:12] <axisys> Stormx2: yep.. this last one they did a great job
[12:12] <rwscold> i am worried about upgrading cause i use ati
[12:12] <dr`venom> fluvvell have you tried edgy on it?
[12:12] <Stormx2> jeeves_Moss: I used the upgrade tool, but I'm sure it is just a frontend for the command line stuff.
[12:12] <Nox_ville> CAN any1 please help me....
[12:12] <jeeves_Moss> rwscold:  I'm running a Nvida card here.
[12:12] <rwscold> nox whats wrong
[12:12] <dr`venom> or do you plan on waiting a bit before doing so?
[12:13] <Rage1248> Hi, I'm trying dapper on my Toshiba A30 Satalite laptop. The touchpad doesn't work.  I have had this problem before, any clues?
[12:13] <jeeves_Moss> Stormx2:  where did you get it?  I don't want to loose the current install or settings that I've got
[12:13] <fluvvell> dr`venom, with the release having happened in the last 24 hours, I never consider it unless I'm on holiday!
[12:13] <rwscold> jeeves i know lots of ppl seem  to be experienceing problems with ati drivers and edgy
[12:13] <J_K9> axisys - I'm still on Dapper.. and I've only just realised that Edgy came out today :/
[12:13] <J_K9> Why didn't anyone tell me! :P
[12:13] <dr`venom> lol
[12:13] <J_K9> lol
[12:13] <eetfunk> whats the mysql-dev package name?  i cant find it in apt-cache search
[12:13] <dr`venom> cool
[12:13] <axisys> J_K9: #ubuntu-xgl
[12:13] <J_K9> will do
[12:13] <Stormx2> jeeves_Moss: Check https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EdgyUpgrades. Its the first piece of code listed.
[12:13] <fluvvell> dr`venom, Dapper is considered LTS, and I'm using these in business
[12:13] <J_K9> It's odd that the Dapper updates broke it though..
[12:13] <W_McL> just upgraded to edgy and i'm impressed how fine aiglx works out of the box
[12:13] <tazman> help with getting downloads on ubuntu
[12:13] <wiseelben> Hi, I have two SATA drives and it seems like that gparted can't read them. Well gparted just hangs on the scanning all drivers part... anny suggestions?
[12:14] <dr`venom> I will be using it at home
[12:14] <jeeves_Moss> rwscold:  humm, I hope it keeps my Athoes card running
[12:14] <dr`venom> but i'm no expert
[12:14] <user-land> is there a good unit conversion utility ?
[12:14] <ltR^> Hello
[12:14] <NeoThermic> my tubes are full!
[12:14] <dr`venom> I've only been using linux for about 2 months
[12:14] <ltR^> how do i install the nvidia beta drivers???
[12:14] <jeeves_Moss> Stormx2:  thanks, I'll have a look
[12:14] <dr`venom> still not able to go of windows
[12:14] <axisys> W_McL: yep
[12:14] <Blacken> NeoThermic: You fool, they're dump trucks!
[12:14] <fluvvell> dr`venom, and if you have the time to play around with it thats cool too.
[12:14] <Nox_ville> rwscold: 2 things.. #1 whenever i open an administrative window (2 configure something (such as networking) ) the window doesn't load... but the little bar at the bottom appears.. then disappears..
[12:14] <NeoThermic> Blacken: yes, but the dumptrucks have filled my tubes!
[12:14] <colin__> I just installed Edgy...is the boot screen supposed to be grayscale?
[12:14] <Blacken> NeoThermic: That's kind of weird...
[12:14] <NeoThermic> ok, this has failed again
[12:15] <dr`venom> will aiglx run ok on a dothan 1.6 with intel 855gm?
[12:15] <fluvvell> dr`venom, I'll probably start on one of the kids pcs in one of the next few weekends, say if its raining! (less to do outside)
[12:15] <kirukera> ver irc.webpool.de
[12:15] <MutantX> i've got a toshiba laptop with a --Phoenix Bios-- ... I've googled for weeks. and tried everything i can think of.  how do i enable suspend, resume support?
[12:15] <MattJ> rwscold, I'm having a great time with the ATI drivers on Edgy. Under Dapper every trick in the book couldn't get OGL/DRI to work
[12:15] <user-land> what is the best calculator ?
[12:15] <dr`venom> so, I guess I will start off with dapper
[12:15] <dr`venom> I tried suse but it feels too slow
[12:15] <Blacken> MattJ: Like hell. The ATI drivers worked easy on Dapper. How'd you make them work on Edgy?
[12:15] <fluvvell> dr`venom, you have a dothan ?
[12:15] <grndslm_> anybody know of a general programming channel on IRC??
[12:15] <NeoThermic> "Failed to fetch http://gb.archive.ubuntu.com/ubunti/dists/edgy/universe/binary-i386/Packages.bz2 Sub-process bzip2 returns an error code (2)"
[12:15] <dr`venom> yea,
[12:15] <finalbeta> !backup
[12:15] <MattJ> Blacken, no trouble at all :)
[12:15] <dr`venom> on my laptop
[12:15] <NeoThermic> any ideas?
[12:15] <Blacken> MattJ: What'd you do?
[12:15] <dr`venom> so I undervold
[12:16] <Tokenbad> ok got vmware-server installing now...had to remove the /etc/vmware dir
[12:16] <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
[12:16] <Mirro> will someone help me with Compiz plz??
[12:16] <MattJ> dr`venom, you want speed? Have you tried Xubuntu?
[12:16] <dr`venom> nope
[12:16] <W_McL> axisys: had compiz already installed on dapper but it only worked with xgl and the proprietary video card drivers... after the update with other changes in my xorg.conf than replacing the proprietary by the free driver
[12:16] <dr`venom> never
[12:16] <MattJ> Blacken, installed from the reps
[12:16] <Blacken> MattJ: Speed and Xubuntu don't go together...
[12:16] <dr`venom> is there a huge difference
[12:16] <MattJ> Blacken, how come?
[12:16] <finalbeta> How do I backup my whole ubuntu installation? everything is set up on one partition. My HD is dieing.
[12:16] <MERLiiN> that's a secret
[12:16] <Blacken> MattJ: xfce is "special".
[12:16] <Blacken> MattJ: You installed fglrx-control and xorg-driver-fglrx, and you got DRI?
[12:16] <fluvvell> dr`venom, so my centrino adjusts cpu speed happily anyway, and shows clock speed on the top line in an applet.
[12:16] <colin__> I have a quick question: How do I change the login (not usplash) screen from Xubuntu to Ubuntu?
[12:16] <MattJ> Just xorg-driver-fglrx
[12:16] <dr`venom> I heard ubuntu was faster than suse without depriving me of all the new linux software
[12:17] <MattJ> Then a reboot
[12:17] <MattJ> Under Dapper that left me still with Mesa for OGL
[12:17] <wiseelben> Hi, I have two SATA drives (already partitioned w/ NTFS and FAT32) and it seems like that gparted can't read them. Well gparted just hangs on the scanning all drivers part... anny suggestions?
[12:17] <MattJ> On Edgy it's now the ATI card
[12:17] <dr`venom> yea, my centrino does that too, but I have it running at 980v at 1.7 clock
[12:17] <fuffalo> how do you stop ubuntu from automatically updating itself
[12:17] <Nox_ville> rwscold ....
[12:17] <dr`venom> as appose to 1.3v
[12:17] <Blacken> However, the ATI installer doesn't work with -generic kernels.
[12:17] <Nox_ville> rwscold: 2 things.. #1 whenever i open an administrative window (2 configure something (such as networking) ) the window doesn't load... but the little bar at the bottom appears.. then disappears..
[12:18] <Rage1248> Hi, I'm trying dapper on my Toshiba A30 Satalite laptop. The touchpad doesn't work.  I have had this problem before, any clues? Please help, even an RTFM and URL would be good... :)
[12:18] <dr`venom> that undervolt gives me an extra 30 minutes of battery and no anoying fan :)
[12:18] <rwscold> Nox in dapper? or in Edgy?
[12:18] <Blacken> What...the...hey...
[12:18] <Mirro> !gxl
[12:18] <Mirro> !xgl
[12:18] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about gxl - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[12:18] <Blacken> Xlib:  extension "XFree86-DRI" missing on display ":0.0".
[12:18] <ubotu> Compiz (compositing window manager) and XGL (X server architecture layered on top of OpenGL)  -  Howto at http://help.ubuntu.com/community/CompositeManager  -  Help in #ubuntu-xgl  -  See http://tinyurl.com/pw5ez for Kubuntu systems
[12:18] <fluvvell> dr`venom, you're running suse ?
[12:18] <NeoThermic> "Failed to fetch http://gb.archive.ubuntu.com/ubunti/dists/edgy/universe/binary-i386/Packages.bz2 Sub-process bzip2 returns an error code (2)" any idea? :P
[12:19] <ubuntu> hi
[12:19] <dr`venom> suse at home, I tried it on my laptop, but it got slower with xgl
[12:19] <dr`venom> lol
[12:19] <sledge_at_work> ubuntu: hi
[12:19] <Nox_ville> rwscold: dapper (NEW install too)
[12:19] <jeeves_Moss> Stormx2:  it looks like the update servers are flooded.  This is taking for EVER!!
[12:19] <dr`venom> xgl works but a bit slow
[12:19] <grndslm_> there are too many people here
[12:19] <fluvvell> dr`venom, what graphics architecture ?
[12:19] <dr`venom> yea, suse has been my main os at home
[12:19] <Stormx2> jeeves_Moss: Hah! Nevermind ;)
[12:19] <Zobo> hey
[12:19] <finalbeta> How do I back up my /root partition? Can I put it to an image?
[12:19] <J_K9> So what's all this about beryl? Is it another WM (to replace Compiz), or something completely different? Meh, I'll look it up ;)
[12:19] <rwscold> NOX so after it prompts u to enter your password the screen doesnt come up?
[12:19] <dr`venom> at home i have a fx52 vidia and my laptop has a 855gm
[12:19] <jeeves_Moss> Stormx2:  we're running a blazing 20K/sec here
[12:19] <Stormx2> jeeves_Moss: I did it yesterday to beat the rush. But remember, its got to download ~600mb
[12:19] <finalbeta> Please, HD is dieing :p. Crach every x minutes
[12:20] <dr`venom> I heard aigxl would work better on my laptop
[12:20] <J_K9> finalbeta: dd if=/root of=root.iso
[12:20] <jeeves_Moss> Stormx2: I jsut hope it fits on this drive
[12:20] <Nox_ville> rwscold: no.. it doens't even ask for a passwd.. just attempts to load... then crashes (doens't load)
[12:20] <dr`venom> believe it or not, those little things make me more productive
[12:20] <Blacken> What's the package that installs DRI for X?
[12:21] <dr`venom> right now, windows seems to work the best on my laptop. Then again, I have only compared it to suse and pclinuxos
[12:21] <rwscold> Nox I have never experienced that  I would say check with the forums but I would probably just make sure the disk was good and re install
[12:21] <dr`venom> I am not saying that I prefer windows
[12:21] <dr`venom> thats, why I am here
[12:21] <finalbeta> J_K9, dd if=/ of=/media/hda/backup.iso would work? Would dd start backing up the files in the partitons mounted under /media?
[12:22] <Nox_ville> rwscold: k.. thats 1 problem down.. 1 to go...:
[12:22] <dr`venom> and why I have been procrastinating with school work, so that I can learn a bit more about linux and switch over
[12:22] <dr`venom> :)
[12:22] <rwscold> Nox sorry i couldnt be of more help
[12:22] <rixxon> !sound
[12:22] <ubotu> If you're having problems with sound, first ensure alsa is selected by double clicking on the volume control, then File -> Change Device (Alsa Mixer). If you are still having problems with sound, then look at http://alsa.opensrc.org/index.php?page=DmixPlugin See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DebuggingSoundProblems
[12:23] <dr`venom> besides, I know that windows is only running faster because I do not know how to settup linux
[12:23] <rwscold> Ehird in the house
[12:23] <ehird> *da
[12:23] <Nox_ville> k.. i need to set up a wireless network card and get it onto a network (aptly named nox-net).. please explain how.. the !wireless guide doesn't seeem to work
[12:23] <Tokenbad> hmm...vmware server is asking for a serial....where get the serial....I thought it was free
[12:23] <J_K9> finalbeta - yes.. the only problem with that is you're backing EVERYTHING up under /media, including, if I'm not mistaken, /media ;)
[12:23] <J_K9> Tokenbad - free as in beer, not speech. A serial is emailed to you IIRC
[12:24] <Nox_ville> rwscold: no worries
[12:24] <finalbeta> J_K9, damned :p. I need to backup the whole system, exept everything mounted under /media
[12:24] <mista> ok i have my system running nice now, i got xgl to run but in some programs it makes the hole thing transparnet? can i turn it of for each program i run?
[12:24] <rwscold> Nox is the card detected properly?
[12:24] <azureal> heh, i just realized that I had started a dist-upgrade on a day of busy servers ;)
[12:24] <eyequeue> mista, wrong channel, #ubuntu-xgl
[12:24] <Blacken> Gaaah...Xorg does not have the X DRI plug-in or whatever it needs, and it doesn't work correctly. For that matter, the ATI drivers just don't work either. What gives?
[12:24] <gnubie> cannot seem to find the w32codecs for edgy, but my wifi and 3d accel are doing well
[12:25] <Tokenbad> J_K9, well how...I assume I register to the site then?
[12:25] <Nox_ville> i don't know how to tell... (im more of a windows dude to be honest)
[12:25] <ehird> would python be a good thing to learn to make silly apps and games for ubuntu? it seems to be popular and easy :)
[12:25] <eyequeue> !seveas > gnubie
[12:25] <beergutxl> Can someone help please I can't remove courier-authdaemon

[12:25] <rwscold> Nox what card is it?
[12:25] <azureal> silly apps and games? heh....python is so cool though..
[12:25] <J_K9> Tokenbad - yes
[12:25] <gnubie> eyequeue: thanks
[12:25] <eyequeue> gnubie,  no prob
[12:26] <Nox_ville> its a standard hp card on a hp compaq nw8000 laptop...
[12:26] <Nox_ville> @rwscold
[12:26] <J_K9> finalbeta - there may be an --exlude option... I can't remember
[12:26] <ehird> what's a good torrent to gape at the speeds? ;)
[12:26] <dr`venom> so guys, for speed: ubuntu or xubuntu?
[12:26] <J_K9> xubuntu
[12:26] <Nox_ville> !xubuntu
[12:26] <ubotu> Xubuntu is Ubuntu with XFCE, for more info, see http://www.xubuntu.org  To install from Ubuntu: sudo apt-get install xubuntu-desktop
[12:27] <ehird> i'll try an oo.o torrents
[12:27] <ehird> hear those things are swarming with seeds
[12:27] <Nox_ville> rsword: its a standard hp card on a hp compaq nw8000 laptop...
[12:27] <Blacken> Has anyone gotten their virtual ttys working with Edgy?
[12:27] <jeeves_Moss> Stormx2:  did you have an issue when you used the update manager?  I keep getting "update-manager: error: no such option: -c"
[12:28] <alfons> hi allemaal
[12:28] <jeeves_Moss> all:  has any one had an issue upgrading with the update manager?
[12:28] <Stormx2> jeeves_Moss: Yeah, I did. Try put a double -
[12:28] <Stormx2> jeeves_Moss: so --
[12:28] <Tokenbad> J_K9, I don't even see a link to get a serial for vmware-server
[12:29] <ehird> on the contrary
[12:29] <jeeves_Moss> Stormx2:  was that a dubble -- inside the ""?
[12:29] <ehird> torrents are slower than in windows
[12:29] <J_K9> tokenbad - 'download' it off their site.. That'll get you a serial
[12:29] <rwscold> Nox check in system > administration  networking see if it sees your wireless card
[12:30] <Stormx2> jeeves_Moss: Hold on.
[12:30] <dassmario> Can anyone tell me how to get the resolution higher than 1280x1024? I've got intel915 and a display that does 1680x1050 native
[12:30] <Tokenbad> J_K9, I already downloaded it...how you think I got to where its asking for a serial....
[12:30] <rwscold> ehird torrents work great in ubunutu for me
[12:30] <jeeves_Moss> Stormx2:  ok, thanks.  I'm @ work right now on break, so I can leave it plugged in and running in the back while I'm working.
[12:30] <JosefK> !915resolution > dassmario
[12:30] <Tokenbad> J_K9, that is why trying to find the serial
[12:30] <cin> !915resolution > cin
[12:30] <ehird> any way to change port with ubuntu's basic bittorrent client?
[12:30] <Nox_ville> rwscold: it says the wireless interface ath0 is active
[12:30] <Stormx2> jeeves_Moss: It should be right
[12:31] <Stormx2> jeeves_Moss: Are you up to date with all your packages?
[12:31] <vzoric> hi, i wanna ask something if someone can help me, I have a problem with my pc, i turned off my pc and it didnt want to start again, i pulled off the cable from cdroms and now it works but if i put cables back it wont work

[12:31] <P3L|C4N0> greetings
[12:31] <krazykit> ehird: if you like simplicity, build Transmission or hunt for a deb

[12:32] <Blacken> yurgh. Why don't virtual TTYs work?
[12:32] <Stormx2> jeeves_Moss: Just try the apt-get method
[12:32] <Tokenbad> J_K9, when I downloaded from vmware it didn't ask for my email...or anything...
[12:32] <dassmario> Yea. I tried 915resolution and followed the steps at http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Ubuntu_Edgy but the resolution in the system-preferences didnt change
[12:32] <Stormx2> jeeves_Moss: It is probably a bit more informative...
[12:32] <ehird> well what's the fastest torrent anyone here knows
[12:32] <dassmario> Do I need to reboot?
[12:32] <JosefK> hmm, is there any way to change the configuration for xine-totem?
[12:32] <rwscold> Nox ckick yoiur wirelexx card and then properties make suire the connection is enabled
[12:32] <ehird> on windows i can normally max out my connection (1Mbit/sec, 128Kilobyte/sec)
[12:33] <JosefK> I'm guessing it isn't using the best possible settings (does it read xine-ui's?)
[12:33] <Tokenbad> J_K9, and this is where I downloaded it from:  http://www.vmware.com/download/server/
[12:33] <Nox_ville> rwscold: no.. the blue button is on :)
[12:33] <NeoThermic> so anyone have any idea why I'm getting the error while attempting to update?
[12:33] <jeeves_Moss> stormx2:  I tried that, then it starts to complain about not having libc6-i686
[12:33] <rwscold> Nox click yoiur wireless card and then properties make sure the connection is enabled
[12:33] <cryptonic> can anyone help me out with an error im getting when trying to update ubuntu, :
[12:33] <dr`venom> so, i read a review on xubuntu, it looks kind of ugly in my opinion
[12:33] <J_K9> lol
[12:34] <J_K9> to each his own
[12:34] <dr`venom> exactly
[12:34] <Stork> argh
[12:34] <dr`venom> sorry, I need eye candy
[12:34] <dr`venom> it keeps me productive
[12:34] <Stork> just installed edgy now my sound doesn't work
[12:34] <Sgeo> Um..
[12:34] <dr`venom> will my centrino 1.6 be able to run ubuntu nicely?
[12:34] <rwscold> who needs sound!
[12:34] <chplanet> is there any support of Raid hardware for ubuntu dapper?
[12:34] <rixxon> 'The following packages were automatically installed and are no longer required:'... Do I really dare this autoremove stuff? It wants to remove gnome-keyring-manager etcetera
[12:34] <Sgeo> I restarted while it was fetching files..
[12:34] <J_K9> tokenbad - when you click the 'download now' button, there's a bright orange 'register' button on the following page...
[12:35] <jeeves_Moss> stormx2:  any ideas?
[12:35] <Sgeo> Did I completely end my computer's ability to upgrade
[12:35] <Tokenbad> J_K9,  it don't even give me that...it just downloads the file
[12:35] <Sgeo> How do I fix things?
[12:35] <dassmario> I've downloaded and installed 915resolution. What do I do next?
[12:35] <NeoThermic> "Failed to fetch http://gb.archive.ubuntu.com/ubunti/dists/edgy/universe/binary-i386/Packages.bz2 Sub-process bzip2 returns an error code (2)" any idea? :P
[12:35] <rwscold> sqeo what did u do???
[12:35] <JoseStefan> Sgeo, can you boot?
[12:35] <ehird> question, i have the ubuntu edgy iso via http, could i seed it on the torrent using plain BitTorrent? :)
[12:35] <Sgeo> I did
[12:35] <JoseStefan> Sgeo, can you reach the CLI ?
[12:35] <Sgeo> I restarted while it was fetching files during the upgrade
[12:35] <Nox_ville> !bluez-utils
[12:35] <ubotu> bluez-utils: Bluetooth tools and daemons. In component main, is optional. Version 3.7-1ubuntu4 (edgy), package size 260 kB, installed size 788 kB

[12:36] <Sgeo> JoseStefan, nothing was installed yet I think
[12:36] <cin> Jeez. Edgy already? Dapper seems like only yesterday, you guys sure like to move fast, huh?
[12:36] <rwscold> sgeo and whats the problem now
[12:36] <Stormx2> jeeves_Moss: Have you updated *all* your repos in your sources.list?
[12:36] <shira> anyone know why my edgy isn't reading my other SATA (already formatted w/ NTFS and FAT32) drives?
[12:36] <Sgeo> rwscold, I interrupted it when I shouldn't have..
[12:36] <JoseStefan> Sgeo, if was still downloading, and NOT installing, you should be ok
[12:36] <adam_swe> hi, i tried to install a LAMP server on my computer using this guide: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ApacheMySQLPHP#head-b61e938a59a33a4e3a56552fa81a5ae0eec86651 . i am stuck when i try to make a root password for the mysql server. this is the error i get: ERROR 2002 (HY000): Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock' (2) . does anybody know what i can do? :S
[12:36] <Sgeo> And will upgrader work like normal?
[12:36] <rwscold> sgeo i probably will
[12:36] <HaroldJohnson> I've got my Mac booting three partitions: OS X on the first, OS 9, and then Ubuntu.  Anyone know how I may delete the Ubuntu partition so that I may use it as extra storage for my OS X files?
[12:37] <rwscold> if it doesnt when you get something running let us know :)
[12:37] <jeeves_Moss> Stormx2:  I think I did
[12:37] <Sgeo> And I think the process would have set a lock
[12:37] <Sgeo> How do I remove the lock?
[12:38] <triade> HaroldJohnson: shouldn't you be askimg that on a osX list?
[12:38] <jeeves_Moss> stormx2:  hummm, any other ideas?  it says there is an error when I try the update manager, and it seems to be hung up on libc6-i686
[12:38] <rwscold> thats what linux us all about total destructionage then crawling back out of the depths from that destructionage
[12:38] <HaroldJohnson> triade: Why do you say that?
[12:38] <rwscold> makes u  uber ubuntu genius
[12:39] <triade> HaroldJohnson: well we'd prefer you remove osX for extra Ubuntu space. ;-)
[12:39] <HaroldJohnson> triade: Yes, but I'm trying to recover the space I used to install Ubuntu.
[12:39] <HaroldJohnson> triade: I really like Ubuntu, but not on my circa-1999 Mac
[12:39] <rwscold> triad format partition
[12:39] <rwscold> ???
[12:39] <JoseStefan> HaroldJohnson, that would involve using the other OS's partitioning tools, and we dont know much about those
[12:40] <Stork> oh my fucking god
[12:40] <Stork> what the fuck
[12:40] <HaroldJohnson> triade: Doesn't run the greatest on this old Mac
[12:40] <slinky_> I want to install a second hard drive, where do I find information to accomplish this, i am new to linux
[12:40] <Stork> "%()" $W%()*"%(_!$(&%$"
[12:40] <Blacken> Well, we know someone's a brit.
[12:40] <rwscold> !gparted
[12:40] <ubotu> gparted is a GUI partitioning program, "apt-get install gparted", also available as a live cd http://gparted.sourceforge.net/livecd.php
[12:40] <Blacken> IRC without swearing. Amazing!
[12:40] <triade> HaroldJohnson: osX will have to reclaim it, linux can't (de)claim itself. no OS can.
[12:40] <HaroldJohnson> JoseStefan: Well, I'm not so sure about that.  I'm hoping I'll be able to find an open source program to delete the partition *which I created in Ubuntu*
[12:40] <adam_swe> hi, i tried to install a LAMP server on my computer using this guide: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ApacheMySQLPHP#head-b61e938a59a33a4e3a56552fa81a5ae0eec86651 . i am stuck when i try to make a root password for the mysql server. this is the error i get: ERROR 2002 (HY000): Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock' (2) . does anybody know what i can do? :S
[12:40] <Blacken> HaroldJohnson: LiveCD, use gparted.
[12:41] <HaroldJohnson> Blacken: Thank you
[12:41] <Blacken> !paste | adam_swe
[12:41] <ubotu> adam_swe: pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (you can always find it in the channel topic, among other useful things)
[12:41] <notwist> how do i run musicbrainz to fix my mp3 tags and filenames in ubuntu?
[12:41] <notwist> :/
[12:41] <rwscold> Nox I will assume you have found your solutioin
[12:41] <Davey> so, I just upgraded to Edgy an my RAID died
[12:41] <ProN00b> dist-upgrading looks so painfull
[12:41] <Davey> apparently the /dev/* stuff got updated
[12:41] <Davey> :/
[12:41] <slinky_> i created a ext3 partition but it is owned by root and i can't write to the disk
[12:42] <JoseStefan> ProN00b, update-manager should ease things
[12:42] <Blacken> slinky_: You should have a settings option of "disks"
[12:42] <Blacken> slinky_: Alternatively, edit /etc/fstab and change the drive's umask to 000
[12:42] <slinky_> blacken, yes
[12:42] <adam_swe> hi, i tried to install a LAMP server on my computer using this guide: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ApacheMySQLPHP#head-b61e938a59a33a4e3a56552fa81a5ae0eec86651 . i am stuck when i try to make a root password for the mysql server. this is the error i get: ERROR 2002 (HY000): Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock' (2) . does anybody know what i can do? :S
[12:42] <HaroldJohnson> triade: See, I had reserved free space when I initially paritioned a couple of HFS (that's Mac) paritions, then installed the Mac OS's.  Lastly, I installed Ubuntu on the free space that was left.  i would think that I would be able to reverse theis operation.
[12:42] <meat`2> how do you set an app as the default player for dvds?
[12:42] <ProN00b> JoseStefan, i did that, but then decided against it because it wouldn't give me enough info
[12:42] <Blacken> !flood > adam_swe
[12:42] <mikuntu> hello, I'v connected a USB hard disk which it has NTFS. How can I make the file system readable?
[12:43] <ProN00b> JoseStefan, so i continued with apt-get dist-upgrade which gave me more info, is that bad ?
[12:43] <mikuntu> I mean writable
[12:43] <triade> HaroldJohnson: run "sudo cfdisk" and delete the ext3 and swap partitions. reboot and linux is gone. :-)
[12:43] <shira> anyone know why my edgy isn't reading my other SATA (already formatted w/ NTFS and FAT32) drives?
[12:43] <JoseStefan> ProN00b, could be, lets hope not
[12:43] <ehird> okay, first night with ubuntu running ;)
[12:43] <ehird> let's see if it crashes :O
[12:43] <sledge_at_work> cya folks!
[12:44] <egoleo> the right program for chm on linux is xchm
[12:44] <HaroldJohnson> triade: Thanks.  Now, where did you dig up that info?
[12:44] <nikin> hy
[12:44] <HaroldJohnson> triade: Appreciate it, by the way
[12:44] <nikin> did anyone try fluxbuntu?
[12:44] <triade> HaroldJohnson: that's standard *nix info, use and learn...y're welcome
[12:45] <HaroldJohnson> triade: This process will leave my other partitions (the Mac OS ones) unaltered?
[12:45] <slinky_> blacken, i am visually impaired and have trouble following channel can you add me to your msn?
[12:45] <Tokenbad> anyone here that uses windows in vmware that can answer some questions for me
[12:45] <Nox_ville> rsa|rew
[12:45] <Tokenbad> ?
[12:45] <Blacken> slinky_: I don't use MSN, but if you register with nickserv you can PM me.
[12:45] <triade> HaroldJohnson: yes, it'll leave "free space"where the other partitions were so mac can forma those.
[12:46] <slinky_> blacken, how do i register, i am new to this
[12:46] <triade> HaroldJohnson: sorry forma = format
[12:46] <Nox_ville> as

[12:46] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about nickserv - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[12:46] <ProN00b> i have some "The following packages have been kept back:" entrys after upgrading to edgy, what do i do about them ?
[12:46] <klaxian> can i move from ubuntu to xubuntu just by installing xubuntu-desktop?
[12:46] <JoseStefan> !register | slinky_

[12:47] <adam_swe> hi, i am having trouble, i installed a LAMP server and i am stuck, when i am creating a root password for mysql it claims there is no "mysqld.sock". i am using this guide to help me https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ApacheMySQLPHP . i am stuck on part 9.2.

[12:47] <slinky_> that you blacken
[12:47] <slinky_> thank you blacken
[12:47] <Blacken> slinky_: No problem.
[12:48] <ayaa> hello all
[12:48] <ProN00b> i have some "The following packages have been kept back:" entrys after upgrading to edgy, what do i do about them ?
[12:48] <Blacken> ProN00b: Can't do anything about them.
[12:48] <cryptonic> how do you access file browser in root?
[12:48] <deema> hello
[12:48] <ayaa> my ubuntu is starting up very verrry slow when my laptop is not connected to internet, in case there's a net connection, it starts normally
[12:48] <ayaa> what do you think the problem is ?
[12:49] <asymmetry> ayaa, it's trying to run DHCP during boot.
[12:49] <asymmetry> ayaa, if there's no connection, DHCP takes forever.
[12:49] <klaxian> ayaa: install network-manager and don't configure the network by hand
[12:49] <deema> my sound worked in Edgy live cd, but when I installed it, my sound no longer works! anybody have an idea?
[12:49] <adam_swe> cryptonic, sudo nautilus
[12:49] <cryptonic> thx
[12:49] <adam_swe> :)
[12:50] <deema> anybody?
[12:50] <ayaa> asymmetry, it's static interfaces ...
[12:50] <Tschaka> yay, after around 10 hours of upgrading, edgy runs finally, thx folks i am happy for now, going to bed now bye
[12:50] <ayaa> its going slow after gdm authentification
[12:50] <MalfermitaKodo> Hi
[12:50] <HaroldJohnson> triade: So, like gparted, would I have to run cfdisk from a LiveCD?  or could I run it right now, from the Terminal of my OS X system?
[12:50] <Tokenbad> please anyone who uses vmware server with ubuntu and windows that can answer some quick questions on the installing of windows since have vmware-server installed but need to know how to do the vm machine and install windows
[12:51] <ayaa> in other words, it goes slow after charging the rc2 scripts and not before, so dhcp stuff is passed
[12:51] <MalfermitaKodo> anyone here knows something about audio?
[12:51] <deema> my sound worked in Edgy live cd, but when I installed it, my sound no longer works! anybody have an idea?
[12:51] <JoseStefan> how do I empty a CDRW without downloading new stuff ?
[12:51] <user-land> deema, did you create a new /home ?
[12:51] <deema> what?
[12:52] <MalfermitaKodo> I need to know the device name, where sound is outputted to
[12:52] <ProN00b> how can i upgrade those kept back packages ?
[12:52] <triade> HaroldJohnson: I don't know if osX has "cfdisk" but ubuntu does. Boot into that and run it from there.
[12:52] <ayaa> anyone got an idea ?
[12:53] <deema> ...........................................
[12:53] <triade> HaroldJohnson: linux will gladly bite itself in the tail if you want it to. :-)
[12:53] <mikuntu> how to make NTFS is a USB disk drive writtable ?
[12:53] <HaroldJohnson> triade: But I wouldn't be able to boot the same partition I'm running from, right?
[12:53] <JoseStefan> nevermind :*
[12:53] <HaroldJohnson> triade: Oh, so it can
[12:53] <fabio_> what's the name of the tool similar to easyubuntu?
[12:53] <Riot777> I updated to Edgy, and I'm curious where "diskmanager" gone is it in some repositiories or something ?
[12:53] <fabio_> i less it on a site but now i don't remember name
[12:54] <HaroldJohnson> triade: So Linux can eat itself whole, like a snake cannot?
[12:54] <triade> HaroldJohnson: once the partitions are deleted you will not be able to boot into them again, yes.
[12:54] <deema> Automatix?
[12:54] <eugman> I updated today and I see the firefox icon is in use. I thought there were reasons preventing that?
[12:54] <Andrew67> HaroldJohnson: linux obeys, no matter how crazy a command
[12:54] <TigTigger> HaroldJohnson, you get all the rope you want with Linux! =)
[12:54] <LjL> !automatix > deema
[12:54] <cryptonic> any chance someone could sent me the folders and files in the /etc/apt folder as that is whats wrong with the update feature?
[12:54] <triade> HaroldJohnson: like a "live- CD " runs in ram.
[12:55] <HaroldJohnson> Blacken: Any advantage to using gparted over cfdisk?  You'll recall I'm trying to remove an Ubuntu partition so that I may reformat it for OS X
[12:55] <deema> LjL, eh??
[12:55] <HaroldJohnson> triade: Some strange anomalies, this Linux
[12:55] <JoseStefan> HaroldJohnson, GUI is prettier
[12:55] <fabio_> what's the name of the tool similar to easyubuntu?
[12:55] <ProN00b> is it normal that fonts change after installing edgy ?
[12:55] <HaroldJohnson> JoseStefan: GUI is prettier with what?  Ubuntu?
[12:55] <ProN00b> like the default terminal font ?
[12:56] <egon_spengler> fabio_: Automatix
[12:56] <JoseStefan> HaroldJohnson, vs text based tools
[12:56] <Tokenbad> please anyone who uses vmware server with ubuntu and windows that can answer some quick questions on the installing of windows since have vmware-server installed but need to know how to do the vm machine and install windows
[12:56] <HaroldJohnson> triade: I've been using Ubuntu for well over a year, and plan to continue doing so...just not on this old Mac
[12:56] <sid> Someone confirm a bug for me, if you left click and drag an icon in the gnome-panel to the right, and back to the left, does the icon lose all it's information?
[12:56] <Blacken> HaroldJohnson: I prefer gparted, it's just taste.
[12:56] <HaroldJohnson> JoseStefan: True.  Isn't that the main idea with GUI?
[12:56] <triade> HaroldJohnson: it's not anomalie, it's constructed that way. Hence linux live-CD's.
[12:56] <djm62> sid: what information?
[12:56] <Lo_Pan> lol?
[12:56] <ProN00b> is it normal that fonts change after i installed edgy ?
[12:56] <transgress_> so anyone care to help me figure out why xine will play dvd's but totem-xine will not?
[12:57] <sid> djm62: The icon color, name etc.
[12:57] <HaroldJohnson> JoseStefan: Or I guess it could be argued that the main idea behind GUI is ease-of-use.
[12:57] <JoseStefan> HaroldJohnson, gparted is gui, the other isnt
[12:57] <bimberi> sid: yes, that happens here
[12:57] <HaroldJohnson> Blacken: I appreciate your opinion.
[12:57] <Blacken> HaroldJohnson: NP.
[12:57] <sid> thanks bimberi
[12:57] <HaroldJohnson> JoseStefan: Ah, I see.
[12:57] <sid> I can't find a bug report for this on launchpad.net
[12:57] <MalfermitaKodo> where is the sound oututted to in alsa or OSS?
[12:57] <bdragonmsl> anyone in here have problems with a 7900 gt pci-e??
[12:58] <HaroldJohnson> Now you've all got me regretting the very idea of deleting Ubuntu from this system...
[12:58] <Blacken> Is it me, or is the new fstab really, really weird...?
[12:58] <cryptonic> any chance someone could sent me the folders and files in the /etc/apt folder as that is whats wrong with the update feature?
[12:58] <djm62> sid: that happens here!
[12:58] <Lapsus> Hello! I can't seem to get the dapper livecd to boot into X. It just dumps me to the console after telling me that it's "Failed to start the X server" any ideas as to how I can get it to work?
[12:58] <bimberi> sid: feel free to report it then :)
[12:58] <chaoticg33k> Ok, well I'm not getting responses in the server channel so maybe here. I have two computers, one network port in my dorm room. I want to share the connection between the two computers. I'm installing server on the second and I will have another network card tomorrow, but I can get it installed today. My question is how easy or hard will it be for me to set up ubuntu server to take the network connection from my windows box and share it or
[12:58] <Vich> I accidently made a copy of a theme
[12:58] <Vich> how do I remove it?
[12:58] <djm62> sid: very well spotted: when you report it, tell us the URL to back you up?
[12:58] <chaoticg33k> that last . is supposed to be a ?
[12:59] <HaroldJohnson> Anyone: Is there any way I could keep Ubuntu on the partition it's on, and then use some of the space on that same partition for the files from my Mac OS?  Example: I'd like to store some MP3's and stuff there.
[12:59] <user-land> lapsus, try the new version.
[12:59] <Vich> there is no theme remove button ~_~
[12:59] <sid> djm62: eh, I'm too lazy to report it. I'm just going to mention it in ubuntu-devel and a dev will read it probably
[12:59] <triade> HaroldJohnson: I've seen gparted make a mess of the "file alocation table" be careful.
[12:59] <egon_spengler> chaoticg33k: That would take a bit of doing and be hard to follow in here
[12:59] <Riot777> anyone knows where disk-manager gone ? from edgy ?
[12:59] <nemlah> Hello all
[12:59] <HaroldJohnson> triade: Thanks for the warning.
[12:59] <nemlah> i am having some beryl trouble
[12:59] <DShepherd> nemlah: wanna try #beryl?
[01:00] <nemlah> composite enabled and ati driver works
[01:00] <nemlah> ok
[01:00] <Lapsus> user-land: I would, but I already have a bunch of the dapper cds. I really just need to use it to resize a partition
[01:00] <nemlah> thanks
[01:00] <HaroldJohnson> triade: Would it be possible to keep my Ubuntu partion, and use some of it for my Mac files?
[01:00] <djm62> HaroldJohnson: you could shrink ubuntu and make a "neutral partition" like FAT43 on the spare space
[01:00] <triade> HaroldJohnson: can you read or mount your ubuntu partition from osX?
[01:00] <user-land> try knoppix for that.
[01:00] <HaroldJohnson> djm62: But I need the space for Mac files
[01:00] <RichardC> can anyone here reccommend a vm for me to use on my windows xp machine for ubuntu 6.10?
[01:00] <bubuntu> need help, edgy cd could not find the image kernel
[01:00] <RichardC> recommend
[01:00] <Rage1248> chaoticg33k: easy, look into nat
[01:00] <HaroldJohnson> triade: Don't know how to, really.  Got an idea?  I could try it now.
[01:00] <deema> my sound worked in Edgy live cd, but when I installed it, my sound no longer works! anybody have an idea?
[01:01] <bubuntu> now I am in the dapper lice cd
[01:01] <bubuntu> live cd
[01:01] <Rage1248> chaoticg33k: options ip forwarding
[01:01] <djm62> deema: have you messed around with any volume controls?
[01:01] <soundray> chaoticg33k: I don't think that will be too difficult. IIRC, Windows provides something like network address translation, so you just have to give Ubuntu the Windows box's address as the gateway.
[01:01] <deema> yes, I think so
[01:01] <triade> I haven't got osX but it's BSD derived afaik.
[01:01] <azureal> 87%  gulp
[01:01] <azureal> i just hope this dist-upgrade goes well w/ my ubuntu server edition
[01:01] <Lapsus> user-land: That'd be great, but I don't have any blank media to burn it to either
[01:01] <HaroldJohnson> triade: I'm willing to try.  I'm one of those few who took *weeks* (if not *months*) to get Ubuntu running on a system which it's not really supposed to be running on anymore.
[01:01] <RichardC> heh
[01:01] <RichardC> lemme try that again
[01:01] <triade> HaroldJohnson: if you can read them you can use them.
[01:02] <RichardC> can anyone here recommend a vm for me to use on my windows xp machine for ubuntu 6.10?
[01:02] <HaroldJohnson> triade: I've put alot of effort into getting Ubuntu going on this
[01:02] <Nox_ville> vmware...
[01:02] <djm62> RichardC: vmware player IIRC
[01:02] <azureal> hehe lol
[01:02] <Nox_ville> @Harold
[01:02] <user-land> lapsus, i am sorry ...
[01:02] <bdragonmsl> I have an amd 4800 x2, is that compatible with the k8 restricted modules??
[01:02] <RichardC> djm62: thanks
[01:02] <triade> HaroldJohnson: was that an install of the live CD?
[01:02] <HaroldJohnson> triade: So, off the top of your head, what's a command I can try in Terminal?  I'll get Terminal open
[01:02] <HaroldJohnson> triade: No way
[01:02] <soundray> Has anyone got font trouble like I do since upgrading to edgy? Each of the antialiasing/subpixel smoothing modes looks worse than it used to in dapper.
[01:03] <HaroldJohnson> triade: I've had to go back to Breezy (or Hoary?  I don't recall), and then apt-get upgrade
[01:03] <triade> HaroldJohnson: uhh, "mount" .... without the quotes.
[01:03] <HaroldJohnson> triade: Dapper won't install on my old PowerBook G3
[01:03] <azureal> i love how on upgrade aptitude gave me a score:  -3
[01:03] <HaroldJohnson> triade: "mount...?"  Is it fdisk (or cfdisk) that will display my partitions?
[01:03] <Nox_ville> hello.. k i need some wireless networking assistance.. ive got a random access point and a hp laptopn (hp compaq nw8000) how can i connect to the access point...?
[01:04] <Tokenbad> please anyone who uses vmware server with ubuntu and windows that can answer some quick questions on the installing of windows since have vmware-server installed but need to know how to do the vm machine and install windows
[01:04] <axisys> how come when i click on the red power button on top corner it does not give a choice, but just log me out right away?
[01:04] <triade> HaroldJohnson: no, it'll show what the system (osX) has mounted.
[01:04] <MalfermitaKodo> Can someone tell me what the name of the output-device in alsa is?
[01:04] <HaroldJohnson> triade: How do I determine where my Ubuntu partition is located?  For this do I need to boot into Ubuntu?
[01:05] <mikuntu> how to make NTFS USB hard disc writable?
[01:05] <bdragonmsl> I have an amd 4800 x2, is that compatible with the k8 restricted modules??
[01:05] <triade> HaroldJohnson: first try from osX
[01:05] <Nox_ville> hello.. k i need some wireless networking assistance.. ive got a random access point and a hp laptopn (hp compaq nw8000) how can i connect to the access point...?
[01:05] <axisys> ever since i installed compiz w/ aiglx on dapper i am noticing this behavior.. even after upgrading to edgy w/ beryl still same behavior
[01:05] <axisys> the red power button just log me out w/ giving me a choice
[01:05] <ryanakca> whats the command to create a swap file of 512mb? dd if=/dev/zero of=/swapfile bs=1024 count=512
[01:05] <cryptonic> any chance someone could sent me the folders and files in the /etc/apt folder as that is whats wrong with the update feature?
[01:06] <azureal> 1. manual pages  2. google 3. irc
[01:06] <Nox_ville> hello.. k i need some wireless networking assistance.. ive got a random access point and a hp laptopn (hp compaq nw8000) how can i connect to the access point...?
[01:06] <deema> hey how do I navigate alsamixer? I want to try selecting a difference device, and I can't!
[01:06] <nikosapi> How do I upgrade to edgy? apt-get dist-upgrade?
[01:06] <triade> Tokenbad: ask
[01:06] <djm62> Nox_ville: no need to repeat yourself

[01:06] <ubotu> For upgrading, please see the instructions on: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes (you can also find this URL in the channel topic: type "/topic")
[01:06] <HaroldJohnson> triade: That was it?  Just type "mount"?

[01:06] <ubotu> nikosapi: For upgrading, please see the instructions on: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes (you can also find this URL in the channel topic: type "/topic")
[01:06] <Nox_ville> sorry.. thought i was talking to myself
[01:07] <MalfermitaKodo> deema: left and right?
[01:07] <djm62> Nox_ville: nope, you're just in a room with 1023 people at last count...it's kind of busy
[01:07] <hype> !opera
[01:07] <ubotu> opera is an advanced and free (only as in price) web browser.  Install it via Applications->Add/Remove..., making sure that "Show commercial applications" is checked. For more info on opera please see: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/OperaBrowser
[01:07] <triade> HaroldJohnson: I hope so. I'm trusting osX is still *nix
[01:07] <HaroldJohnson> triade: Yes, LOL
[01:07] <eugman> Why are we using the firefox icon.
[01:07] <HaroldJohnson> triade: I think it still is.
[01:07] <triade> HaroldJohnson: oh, and hit <enter>
[01:07] <cryptonic> anyone at all, help would be much apreciated?
[01:07] <Tokenbad> triade, well basicly I have vmware server installed but how do I create the vertial machines and install windows to that vertual machine
[01:07] <Nox_ville> djm62: listen dude.. being in a room of 1/2 million people wouldn't help me more than this is now...
[01:08] <HaroldJohnson> triade: Well, it returned a few things.
[01:08] <soundray> thrice`: thanks for suggesting I take a screenshot re. my font problem. Did you have any suggestions? (http://www.soundray.org/screenshot.png)
[01:08] <triade> Tokenbad: you need to create a virtual HD to install in
[01:08] <fabio_> but today there are problem with repository of ubuntu dapper?
[01:08] <Agrajag> Tokenbad: you start by pressing the big "new virtual machine" button
[01:08] <HaroldJohnson> triade: Displays: "/dev/disk0s9 on / (local, journaled)"
[01:08] <Blacken> fabio_: The repositories are being overrun. Give it some time.
[01:08] <axisys> !powerbutton
[01:08] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about powerbutton - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[01:08] <axisys> !power
[01:08] <HaroldJohnson> triade: "devfs on /dev (local)"
[01:08] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about power - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[01:08] <djm62> Nox_ville: have you looking in System->Administration->Networking?
[01:08] <HaroldJohnson> triade: "fdesc on /dev (union)"
[01:08] <Nox_ville> yes
[01:09] <HaroldJohnson> triade: "<volfs> on /.vol"
[01:09] <thrice`> soundray, sorry, I had to go to class :(  they seemed ok to me (the terminal fonts); are they different than in dapper ?
[01:09] <Nox_ville> i set the essid to hpsetup (the access point)
[01:09] <HaroldJohnson> triade: "/dev/disk0s10 on /Volumes/OS9 (local)"
[01:09] <Nox_ville> but when i try ping another computer on the network it cant..
[01:09] <cryptonic> any chance someone could sent me the folders and files in the /etc/apt folder as that is whats wrong with the update feature?
[01:09] <poccia> how do i log in as root in ubuntu
[01:09] <eugman> !sudo
[01:09] <ubotu> sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for all information.
[01:09] <poccia> i am a linux newbie
[01:09] <HaroldJohnson> triade: And a few others regarded "(automounted)"
[01:09] <Nox_ville> sudo passwd .. change password
[01:10] <Nox_ville> then su
[01:10] <soundray> thrice`: I want them to look like in the font selection dialog preview. In the terminal itself, the antialiasing is messed up. It was fine in dapper.
[01:10] <djm62> Nox_ville: if you have a terminal open, and you type "ifconfig" is your stuff there?
[01:10] <johnnytang24> sudo su -
[01:10] <Nox_ville> djm62: YES
[01:10] <Nox_ville> apologies for the caps lock...
[01:10] <Sonic|Laptop> Is anyone else getting disgusting slow speeds while upgrading to Edgy ?
[01:10] <thrice`> soundmaster80, you are configuring within terminal ?
[01:10] <soundray> thrice`: I should add that it's different between applications. Firefox and gnome-terminal are bad, xchat-gnome is fine.
[01:10] <thrice`> Sonic|Laptop, the servers are hammered right now...try a mirror
[01:10] <djm62> Nox_ville: so it indicates that you are on the wireless network?
[01:10] <triade> HaroldJohnson: try and get into into the one you think is your ubuntu. Prolly "ext3" partition.
[01:11] <Erwin> Anyone using Evolution in the new Ubuntu? Here it seems intent on scrolling all the way down to the bottom of a message, when viewing one in the preview. Anyone else seeing this behaviour?
[01:11] <soundray> thrice`: I am using Edit Current Profile in gnome-terminal
[01:11] <Tokenbad> triade, that is already done...
[01:11] <Tokenbad> Agrajag, what virtual machine button
[01:11] <bdragonmsl> I have an amd 4800 x2, is that compatible with the k8 restricted modules??
[01:11] <Nox_ville> no... well.. when i do a iwlist it shows the cells of the network.. and i connect in >> System >> Administration >> Networking to hpsetup...
[01:12] <Nox_ville> Sonic|Laptop: i wish i could even download Edgy.. never mind have kak speeds///
[01:12] <JoseStefan> bdragonmsl, there is no K8 restricted modules
[01:12] <thrice`> soundray, that's about all I can think to do...if you're X is working well in others, than i've got nothing; sorry
[01:12] <triade> HaroldJohnson: so find one that contains "etc/" and/or "proc/"
[01:12] <AlReece45> Has anyone successfully compiled in new alsa drivers or the 2.6.19 kernel?
[01:12] <Nox_ville> ...
[01:12] <triade> Tokenbad: so insert your XP install disk and install it.
[01:12] <Nox_ville> AlReece45.: no
[01:13] <soundray> thrice`: thanks -- I'll keep trying...
[01:13] <Agrajag> Tokenbad: I take it you found the button? :)
[01:13] <cryptonic> any chance someone could send me the folders and files in the /etc/apt folder as that is whats wrong with the my ubuntu update feature?
[01:13] <Erwin> Ah, it seems that the scroll-to-the-bottom bheaviour was due to Caret Mode somehow getting enabled
[01:13] <Agrajag> Tokenbad: make sure you create a virtual IDE disk drive, not SCSI
[01:13] <triade> Agrajag: Nah, he's out cold from the kmock. :-)
[01:13] <Nox_ville> djm62: any cunning plans??
[01:13] <Agrajag> Tokenbad: it'll make life easier
[01:14] <Erwin> (my evolution is on the Alt-F7 virtual desktop so I must have pressed F7 by itself)
[01:14] <djm62> Nox_ville: still not sure where you're at
[01:14] <Tokenbad> Agrajag, well first it took me to find that to find the console it was to go to applications then system tools...then yeah I found it
[01:14] <mista> is there a xgl help here
[01:14] <djm62> Nox_ville: can you use sudo iwconfig to connect to the network from the terminal?
[01:14] <Erwin> Can I change keyboard setup in Evolution BTW? I recall some way of doing it in GTK apps generally by holding down the mouse over a menu item and pressing the new key, but..
[01:14] <bimberi> !disk-manager
[01:14] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about disk-manager - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi

[01:15] <Nox_ville> ?
[01:15] <Nox_ville> btw
[01:15] <bluefox83> yes
[01:15] <bluefox83> it can
[01:15] <HaroldJohnson> triade: Thanks for your help; I'll have to resume this later.
[01:15] <djm62> Nox_ville: yes, it can.  it just might not match as well graphically
[01:15] <sergio63> hola
[01:15] <bluefox83> and does, very well
[01:15] <wizzymcnick> hello all
[01:15] <Nox_ville> dankeshun bluefox83
[01:15] <HaroldJohnson> Blacken: Thanks for your help
[01:15] <sergio63> hi
[01:15] <Nox_ville> djm62: ....
[01:15] <axisys> anyone knows why a click on red power button on top corner just logs me out instead of giving me choices to hybernate or anything else (sorry for repeating the question, wanted to phrase it better)
[01:15] <bluefox83> uhm..ok
[01:15] <triade> HaroldJohnson: Good luck.
[01:16] <wizzymcnick> is there any plan for a k7 2.6.17 release?
[01:16] <HaroldJohnson> triade: Thanks.
[01:16] <Blacken> HaroldJohnson: Not a problem. Good luck.
[01:16] <JoseStefan> wizzymcnick, it has been replaced by linux-generic
[01:16] <Nox_ville> axisys: that question has been asked 10000 times.. i can officially say there is no answer
[01:16] <bluefox83> axisys, you probably need to redefine it's action
[01:16] <Nox_ville> apart from that
[01:16] <axisys> Nox_ville: heh
[01:16] <HaroldJohnson> triade: It's just possible I'll be keeping Ubuntu on this Mac, once I figure out how to get some of its partition space back!
[01:16] <bdragonmsl> JoseStefan, there is in the synaptic.  Look under restricted.
[01:16] <wizzymcnick> JoseStefan: why is that?
[01:16] <axisys> bluefox83: how do i go by doing it?
[01:16] <rawrness> I just had a fun time.
[01:16] <HaroldJohnson> Blacken: It's just possible I'll be keeping Ubuntu on this Mac, once I figure out how to get some of its partition space back!
[01:17] <djm62> HaroldJohnson: you can do that by resizing partitions in your chosen software
[01:17] <JoseStefan> bdragonmsl, package name?
[01:17] <bdragonmsl> JoseStefan, I'm trying to see which kernel I should upgrade to.
[01:17] <azureal> red power buttons? bah =P
[01:17] <axisys> bluefox83: it changed since i switched to aiglx i think.. stayed same away even after upgrade
[01:17] <Nox_ville> djm62: soo.. that cunning plan's expiry time is approaching....
[01:17] <HaroldJohnson> djm62: Can't afford to buy that software (for my Mac)
[01:17] <triade> HaroldJohnson: there's a lot of ways, simply deleting is the easiest
[01:17] <JoseStefan> wizzymcnick, the kernels are optimized better, even the -i386 will load whatever features the CPU supports, Except SMP which is handled by -generic
[01:17] <Nox_ville> HaroldJohnson: then pirate it...www.bittorrent.com or www.whereisit.org
[01:17] <MrRio> !nvidiabeta
[01:17] <ubotu> For Ubuntu 6.10 (Edgy Eft), you can obtain the (unsupported!) Beta version of the binary NVidia drivers by using one of these repositories: "deb http://amaranth.selfip.com/ edgy lrm" (for x86) or "deb http://ubuntu.lupine.me.uk/ edgy lrm-amd64" (for AMD64)

[01:18] <ubotu> Package linux-restricted-modules-amd64-k8 does not exist in edgy

[01:18] <Amaranth> Nox_ville: Please don't discuss illegal activities here.
[01:18] <triade> HaroldJohnson: o need to pirate use "open source"
[01:18] <bluefox83> axisys, try gnome control panel or look in the system->adminitration stuff
[01:18] <JoseStefan> !info linux-restricted-modules-amd64-k8 dapper
[01:18] <wizzymcnick> ok
[01:18] <ubotu> Package linux-restricted-modules-amd64-k8 does not exist in dapper
[01:18] <Nox_ville> jc djm62: please reply
[01:18] <djm62> Nox_ville: you can use iwconfig to get on the network but Administration->Networking doesn't work?
[01:18] <axisys> bluefox83: aight
[01:18] <HaroldJohnson> triade: That's what I'm trying to do.
[01:18] <HaroldJohnson> triade: Okay, ttyl
[01:18] <triade> HaroldJohnson: yes, you'll hve to reinstall ubuntu yho
[01:18] <azureal> wow, no way, dist-upgrade is actually at 97%
[01:18] <bdragonmsl> it's in edgy
[01:18] <azureal> but then i probably need to do it again =/
[01:19] <HaroldJohnson> triade: That's the difficult part (for my particular machine).
[01:19] <andresmujica> anyone knows about problems with kontact and sasl-auth after 3.5.5 upgrade
[01:19] <Davey> Grr, Edgy broke my software RAID :(
[01:19] <Nox_ville> k.. maybe i am missing an important sentence here.. djm62: please go through the steps required line by line.. so i don't miss any crucial information
[01:19] <HaroldJohnson> triade: I prefer OS X, in general, but Ubuntu would give it a run for its money if a few more things worked the way I want them to.
[01:19] <Nox_ville> make it into a project... a HOWTO:
[01:19] <triade> HaroldJohnson: then backup the content of the partition and copy it back after resizing.
[01:20] <JoseStefan> !info linux-restricted-modules-amd64-k8 edgy
[01:20] <ubotu> Package linux-restricted-modules-amd64-k8 does not exist in edgy

[01:20] <HaroldJohnson> Nox_ville: Thanks for the tip
[01:20] <Centaur5> What is the command to be able to login to a broken ubuntu install from a live cd?
[01:20] <johny5> Is there an alternative to using the "gksu "update-manager -c -d" command to update from 6.06 to 6.10?
[01:20] <azureal> def linux over macs lol, what kind of question is that
[01:20] <omV0> hi, i'm using SUSE but i can't get any USB wireless network cards to work (i tried 3 different brands). I am wondering if it may work if i install Ubuntu
[01:20] <Amaranth> johny5: Yeah why?
[01:20] <djm62> Nox_ville: open a terminal, type sudo iwconfig <whateveryourinterfaceis> essid hpnetwork
[01:20] <HaroldJohnson> Nox_ville: I'm guessing you meant #maconlinux?
[01:20] <soundray> JoseStefan: that package has been obsoleted by linux-restricted-modules-generic
[01:21] <Amaranth> omV0: What are they?
[01:21] <JoseStefan> bdragonmsl, http://packages.ubuntu.com/linux-restricted-modules-amd64-k8
[01:21] <JoseStefan> bdragonmsl, obsolete, what soundray said
[01:21] <johny5> I keep on getting a "failure to fetch .... from freecontrib.com"
[01:21] <triade> HaroldJohnson: google for "find cpio" to do that.
[01:21] <Nox_ville> HaroldJohnson: no.. this is a new channel,. its very good... lots of ppl too
[01:21] <johny5> Amaranth, not the exact message, but something of that sort.
[01:21] <azureal> Nox_ville, your card works but can't connect to a particular network...?
[01:21] <Whatsisname> hello again everyone
[01:21] <Amaranth> johny5: Get rid of the 3rd party repos in your sources.list
[01:21] <HaroldJohnson> Nox_ville: Nobody's there now!
[01:21] <Nox_ville> azureal: indeed
[01:22] <HaroldJohnson> Nox_ville: Thx anyway
[01:22] <JoseStefan> bdragonmsl, i suggest install both "linux-generic" and "linux-386" and pick the one that performs better
[01:22] <Whatsisname> does anyone have any experience with flexlm on GNU/Linux
[01:22] <Nox_ville> HaroldJohnson: just check it out anyway...
[01:22] <azureal> Nox_ville, you have things set up in /etc/network/interfaces?
[01:22] <johny5> Amaranth, alright, I'll give it another shot that way.  Thanks!
[01:22] <omV0> Amaranth: i kept buying different ones and when they didnt work i returned them.. i'll buy ANY usb wireless network device that will work...
[01:22] <omV0> Amaranth: but looking at SuSE forums, it's not so easy with SuSE
[01:22] <Amaranth> omV0: Let me see what I can find
[01:23] <omV0> Amaranth: thanks!! =)
[01:23] <Whatsisname> hmm
[01:23] <ToHellWithGA> .me wants to suggest features for and test feisty
[01:23] <Amaranth> omV0: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/WirelessCardsSupported#head-603c9481d6c6288b6b674cc50132d21f6d539c53
[01:23] <ToHellWithGA> edgy is so this morning :P
[01:23] <djm62> Nox_ville: replacing my obvious nonsense with sense
[01:23] <azureal> strange, right after upgrade i get a "E: Unable to correct for unavailable packages"
[01:23] <shwag> i dont see that there is a clear seperation between what catcti and mrtg do?  Is there one ?
[01:23] <Whatsisname> shwag, there is a seperation yes
[01:24] <shwag> Whatisname: Whatisit?
[01:24] <Nox_ville> djm62: bout time... im trying that command now... just reinstalling my piece 'o  crap laptop....
[01:24] <Amaranth> omV0: according to that site you have 2 choices for "out of box" working USB wireless.
[01:24] <Whatsisname> assuming what I remember is correct
[01:24] <omV0> Amaranth: i hope i can get them at best buy or fries electronics, but thanks!!
[01:24] <t0ny-p40> I got an ubuntu server on a network with a windows server and the win server is running a nameserver and on the linux one it keeps adding "nameserver <IP_ADDRESS>" to the /etc/resolv.conf and the problem with that is the windows server likes to tell Linux the ip to every domain name is <IP_ADDRESS> which makes things fail. Any idea how to disable this?
[01:24] <Whatsisname> mrtg was first created, then the graphing functions were seperated into a new package, now known as rrdtool
[01:24] <fabio_> anyone knows a tool for search torrent files?
[01:24] <Whatsisname> then cacti was created using rrdtool
[01:24] <Nox_ville> t0ny-p40: get a new wife
[01:24] <Nox_ville> joeks
[01:24] <Nox_ville> jokes..
[01:24] <Whatsisname> although cacti and mrtg serve similar purposes
[01:24] <Nox_ville> i've had that problem too
[01:25] <Amaranth> omV0: your best bet is probably newegg.com
[01:25] <t0ny-p40> How would a wife fix it?
[01:25] <axisys> bluefox83: got it.. thnx a lot.. it is in gnome-session-properties
[01:25] <t0ny-p40> lol
[01:25] <Whatsisname> cacti is a collection of scripts that drive rrdtool
[01:25] <Whatsisname> whereas mrtg originally had the code for rrdtool as part of it
[01:25] <Whatsisname> and maybe still does
[01:26] <Nox_ville> azureal: i don't know yet.. what should be in that file?
[01:26] <johny5> Amaranth, Thanks again, that's fixed my problem...not that I doubted you.
[01:26] <azureal> is there a pt to 'aptitude dist-upgrade'  twice?
[01:26] <fabio_> anyone knows a tool for search torrent files?
[01:26] <azureal> Nox_ville, basic config for eth0, eth1
[01:26] <jbroome> google
[01:27] <Nox_ville> azureal: huh ? elaborate... networking is a new foie gras for me?
[01:27] <fabio_> ...
[01:27] <Viper550> Yay, Edgy is FINALLY here!
[01:27] <Nox_ville> Viper550: you're only 9 hours too late on that announcement
[01:27] <h3htimo> hey guys im updating to edgy right now, and i need to restart alsa, can i do this without restarting or do i need to restart and if i do will i have to redownload everything that im in the process of downloading?? im at 50% right now
[01:27] <Nox_ville> but nice try

[01:27] <Viper550> I just heard...sorry
[01:27] <Nox_ville> *anyway
[01:27] <Davey> Can anyone help me get my software RAID0 array back?
[01:27] <omV0> Amaranth: neither of those models are on newegg.com =(
[01:28] <Nox_ville> Viper550: no worries...
[01:28] <azureal> Nox_ville, http://pastebin.ca/223520 for ex.
[01:28] <Viper550> But...did anyone notice a little branding miracle? Firefox has it's icon!
[01:28] <Code-E> :o
[01:28] <Nox_ville> azureal: letme check it out.... brb
[01:28] <azureal> i'm not sure if the last 2 lines are needed or not
[01:28] <GhostFreeman> What's the package name for the 686-smp kernel?
[01:29] <JoseStefan> GhostFreeman, dapper or edgy?
[01:29] <bimberi> GhostFreeman: linux-686-smp
[01:29] <GhostFreeman> edgy
[01:29] <JoseStefan> GhostFreeman, "linux-generic"
[01:29] <h3htimo> can someone tell me the command to restart alsa??
[01:29] <Viper550> so, did anyone notice the packaged themes?
[01:29] <Nox_ville> azureal: k.. ill try that now...
[01:30] <elriah> Hey guys, is it possible to do an upgrade from 6.06 to 6.10?
[01:30] <Davey> yes
[01:30] <rawrness> dur
[01:30] <bimberi> !upgrade | elriah
[01:30] <soundray> elriah: read the topic
[01:30] <ubotu> elriah: For upgrading, please see the instructions on: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes (you can also find this URL in the channel topic: type "/topic")
[01:30] <elriah> Tnx.
[01:31] <Nox_ville> elriah: yes.. RTFT.
[01:31] <azureal> what does the last T stand for?!
[01:31] <azureal> 'text' ?
[01:31] <elriah> So 6.10 isn't "Long Term Support" only 6.06?
[01:31] <Nox_ville> is anyone here from South Africa?
[01:31] <GhostFreeman> Is there a performance difference between linux-generic and the 686-smp kernel? Because I quite liked 686-smp
[01:32] <bdragonmsl> Has anyone had problems with 6.10 and nvidia??
[01:32] <JoseStefan> GhostFreeman, afaik, no
[01:32] <Nox_ville> bdragonmsl: i have...
[01:32] <Code-E> !bazaar-ng > Code-E
[01:32] <GhostFreeman> alright, thanks
[01:32] <Code-E> ...
[01:32] <transgress_> i've noticed my console screen is too big... like i can't see the bottom of stuff if i log in via console instead of a gui... is there a fix for this?
[01:32] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about bazaar-ng - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[01:32] <bimberi> GhostFreeman: linux-generic is the new name, linux-686-smp is now a superceded package
[01:32] <bdragonmsl> Nox_ville, what card do you have??
[01:32] <omV0> anybody here uses wireless networking? i want to know what device you are using... i can't get any to work
[01:32] <bimberi> !info linux-686-smp edgy
[01:33] <ubotu> linux-686-smp: Obsoleted by: linux-image-generic. In component restricted, is optional. Version <IP_ADDRESS> (edgy), package size 23 kB, installed size 52 kB
[01:33] <eugman> CAn someone tell me what a white box icon with a start means for a package?
[01:33] <azureal> bimberi, i'm considering running aptitude dist-upgrade a second time, but i get this weird message 'Need to get 14.2MB/186MB of archives. After unpacking 161MB will be freed.'
[01:33] <Nox_ville> bdragonmsl: 6600gt
[01:33] <GhostFreeman> superceded in the sense the kernel is now optimized for the entire x86 family?
[01:33] <bdragonmsl> Nox_ville, pci-e??
[01:33] <bimberi> azureal: that looks ok to me, what's your concern with it?
[01:33] <Nox_ville> bdragonmsl: ya
[01:33] <triade> omV0: yeah, no prob
[01:33] <azureal> bimberi, because it looks like it will uninstall what it just installed, no?
[01:34] <bdragonmsl> Nox_ville, I'm having issues with my 7900 gt
[01:34] <omV0> triade: on a desktop?
[01:34] <triade> omV0: no, laptops.
[01:34] <Nox_ville> oh.. thats not kewl....
[01:34] <omV0> triade: oh.. i'm using a desktop.. nothing seems to work.. it sucks
[01:34] <Nox_ville> whats the exact problem
[01:34] <triade> omV0: what card?
[01:34] <Cale> hmm, fetching file 79 of 1427 at 36k/s. Perhaps I should wait a few days :)
[01:35] <bimberi> azureal: yes it does seem to be a lot of freed up space.  Usually it's correct about such things though.  It's probably replacing a lot of bloat
[01:35] <Davey> http://hashphp.org/pastebin.php?format=plain&pid=9100 - anyone have any ideas?
[01:35] <omV0> triade: i tried a bunch of wireless usb.. i keep buying and returning when i can't get it to work.. i tried d-link and linksys wireless usb
[01:35] <Nox_ville> whats the command to install amarok?
[01:35] <elriah> cleaning out your apt respository...
[01:35] <elriah> That's where your free space is coming from.
[01:35] <soundray> azureal: is this during an edgy upgrade?
[01:35] <azureal> bimberi, ok, but if i answer yes to that prompt, i get another one 'Need to get 528kB/172MB of archives. After unpacking 171MB will be freed.'
[01:36] <fabio_> please...google don't help me...i need only the name of tool to search torrent file
[01:36] <jepeltw> Hello all, I'm having some trouble finding the torrents for Edgy. I choose my region like the page says, but it doesn't show any torrent options
[01:36] <azureal> soundray, yes, an unconventional one... and the 2nd run of aptitude dist-upgrade
[01:36] <eugman> Can someone explain the box icons in synaptic?
[01:36] <triade> omV0: sounds the sam as "my printer wont print"...be more specific.
[01:36] <azureal> soundray, and it's scaring the hell out of me...
[01:36] <boricua> asking again to see consesus on upgrading to edgy from dapper apt or gui????
[01:37] <bimberi> boricua: the gui update-manager is the preferred method
[01:37] <azureal> bimberi, and 171 mb was exactly the amt of space taken up by the dist-upgrade...
[01:37] <AlReece45> I prefered using GUI b/c it took less work
[01:37] <Whatsisname> what
[01:37] <soundray> azureal: did you have ubuntu-desktop or kubuntu-desktop installed before you started?
[01:37] <Whatsisname> commandline > gui
[01:37] <boricua> Whatsisname: using update-manager
[01:37] <bimberi> azureal: probably coincidence, although that's easy for me to say from here :)
[01:37] <azureal> soundray, no, it was an unconventional upgrade advised by someone here for a server install
[01:38] <jojoman02> anyone know where i can get the latest mplayer 1.0 rc1 for ubuntu Dapper/Edgy??
[01:38] <jojoman02> i don't wanna compile from source...
[01:38] <azureal> lol
[01:39] <JoseStefan> bbl
[01:39] <enkidu> how to install Edgy on a 2 GB USB stick ?
[01:39] <Dr_willis> jojoman02,  tough choices then. :)
[01:39] <Whatsisname> jojoman02, should be in multiverse i think
[01:39] <jojoman02> Dr_willis: i'm not a nerd, compiling is for nerds...
[01:39] <Whatsisname> err wait
[01:39] <Whatsisname> nevermind
[01:39] <Dr_willis> jojoman02,  so it watching movies :)
[01:39] <Renan_s2> !xgl
[01:39] <ubotu> Compiz (compositing window manager) and XGL (X server architecture layered on top of OpenGL)  -  Howto at http://help.ubuntu.com/community/CompositeManager  -  Help in #ubuntu-xgl  -  See http://tinyurl.com/pw5ez for Kubuntu systems
[01:39] <Dr_willis> so is...
[01:39] <Dr_willis> lol
[01:39] <azureal> omg dont say it
[01:39] <Whatsisname> for nerds er
[01:39] <soundray> azureal: I agree with bimberi -- should be okay. How bad would it be having to do a fresh server install on that machine?
[01:39] <Whatsisname> *eh
[01:40] <jojoman02> Dr_willis: true
[01:40] <azureal> soundray, er... bad... this basically is a fresh install
[01:40] <Whatsisname> well then find a nerd to hold your hand for you then
[01:40] <triade> enkidu: good idea, I've just bought a 2G SD card. :-)
[01:40] <Nyto-RJ> Hi , is there a way to convert the installation cd-iso to dvd-iso???
[01:40] <Dr_willis> considering that edjy just came out today.....   i doubt if anyone has any new packages for it yet. :)
[01:40] <mjr> Nyto-RJ, what do you mean? It shouldn't matter where you burn it to
[01:40] <enkidu> triade: someone just offered one to me!
[01:40] <elriah> yuk! 21.3k/sec
[01:40] <luis> how can I scale the subtitles in mplayer?
[01:40] <azureal> soundray, it's going to remove all the packages it just downloaded i think =/
[01:41] <Nyto-RJ> but matters
[01:41] <euclectus> irc://irc.freenode.net/aircrack-ng
[01:41] <Nyto-RJ> because its bootable
[01:41] <triade> enkidu: wasn't me, I just bought mine yesterday. :-)
[01:41] <soundray> azureal: that would be unusual -- why would it do that?
[01:41] <Nyto-RJ> ive got a lot of dvd-rs
[01:41] <Nyto-RJ> but none cd-r
[01:41] <enkidu> triade: I have installed a DSL, it works, but it sucks
[01:41] <Nyto-RJ> i want to burn the cd-iso to the dvd-r
[01:41] <aquarius> My upgrade from dapper to edgy broke while trying to upgrade erlang, and my system is now rather weird; the fonts are different, and some icons are showing as the red-x "missing" icon. I don't know whether to reboot or not, since the broken upgrade may have bust everything. What should I do?
[01:42] <eugman> Can someone explain the icons in synaptic?
[01:42] <azureal> soundray, you tell me when it just said it needs to get under a meg and wants to free 171 mbs...
[01:42] <triade> enkidu: you mean the modem?
[01:42] <jbroome> apparently not
[01:42] <azureal> soundray, but _hopefully_ it's just setting up the upstart
[01:42] <Whatsisname> aquarius, do you have a seperate /home partition
[01:42] <mjr> Nyto-RJ, I don't see the problem
[01:42] <enkidu> triade: Damn Small Linux
[01:42] <aquarius> Whatsisname: no.
[01:42] <Whatsisname> then there is no easy answer for your situation
[01:42] <Dr_willis> I find DSL very good at what it was designed to do.
[01:42] <triade> enkidu: try slax
[01:42] <Nyto-RJ> because CD-ISO is diferent of DVD-ISO
[01:42] <jojoman02> what is the next ubuntu version? gonne be called? fiesty ferret??
[01:43] <Dr_willis> jojoman02,  Farting Fawn
[01:43] <Dr_willis> :)
[01:43] <enkidu> triade: no, i want ubuntu
[01:43] <azureal> soundray, yea, lol sure enough it's  removing everything.....
[01:43] <bimberi> jojoman02: Feisty Fawn
[01:43] <enkidu> triade: no, i want edgy
[01:43] <jojoman02> bimberi: all, cool
[01:43] <AlReece45> I installed kubuntu-desktop last month to see which one I prefered. I uninstalled it a couple of weeks ago because I didn't use, but now the kubuntu splash screens are still there, how can I get the ubuntu splash screens back/
[01:43] <soundray> azureal: erm, okay...
[01:43] <totall_6_7> LOL @ Ferret
[01:43] <aquarius> Whatsisname: I didn't think to create one when I initially installed this machine (with breezy a year or so ago).
[01:43] <triade> enkidu: so just tell it to format and install there.
[01:43] <soundray> azureal: hope it goes all right for you anyhow
[01:43] <Dr_willis> !usplash
[01:43] <ubotu> usplash is the start-up splash (before the login screen appears) in Ubuntu. To customize it, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/USplashCustomizationHowto
[01:43] <bimberi> !feisty
[01:43] <ubotu> Feisty Fawn is the codename for version 7.04 of the Ubuntu distribution.
[01:43] <totall_6_7> i like that
[01:44] <Nyto-RJ> try to burn the ubuntu cd-iso into a dvd-r
[01:44] <azureal> soundray yea lol..maybe it's supposed to do the full process twice?!
[01:44] <hype> need help comppiling Gaim 2.0 beta4 on edgy: i get this error http://www.rafb.net/paste/results/YdMfDH59.html
[01:44] <Dr_willis> Nyto-RJ,  that dont work.. :) did it by mistake once.
[01:44] <Viper550> If anyone prefers a more orangy theme, Tropic is now in Universe
[01:44] <triade> enkidu: slax only needs 250M includig KDE
[01:44] <Nyto-RJ> so what can I do to convert the cd-iso to dvd-iso
[01:45] <enkidu> triade: usb stick need a special formatting, isn't it ?
[01:45] <eagle1> hi
[01:45] <jojoman02> i would love to see the decision making on these names, No i want frost fox, no i want fuzzy ferret, no i want fiest fawn... lol...
[01:45] <Dr_willis> Nyto-RJ,  never seen it done,
[01:45] <Nyto-RJ> i read about a script to convert the suse linux cds into dvd
[01:45] <Nox_ville> azureal: k.. ive set that command you said.. no response.. my windows computer still cant ping the laptop...
[01:45] <eagle1> there's a guide to update from dapper to the last 6.10 ubuntu?
[01:45] <jojoman02> fiesty*
[01:45] <Nox_ville> azureal: k.. ive set that command you said.. no response.. my windows computer still cant ping the laptop...
[01:45] <Nyto-RJ> should have a way
[01:45] <bimberi> !upgrade | eagle1
[01:45] <mjr> Nyto-RJ, I don't buy your claim that they are different
[01:45] <soundray> jojoman02: still not spelt right ;)
[01:45] <azureal> Nox_ville, "set that command you said" ?
[01:45] <eagle1> !upgrade
[01:45] <Nyto-RJ> they are
[01:45] <mjr> Nyto-RJ, how?
[01:46] <soundray> jojoman02: and fortunately, such decisions are made by a self-appointed benevolent dictator
[01:46] <eagle1> nothing happen bimberi
[01:46] <bimberi> hm, ubotu is lagging badly or down
[01:46] <helloyo> installing edgy from CD, but the "display is out of range", in dapper i could ctrl + alt + + it, but this doesn't work anymore
[01:46] <dutchy> eagle1: read topic :)
[01:46] <Dr_willis> cd's are iso9660 fs's  DVDs are udf aint they.
[01:46] <wk> hi can someone help me with an problem updating dapper to edgy? i did apt-get dist-upgrade and got the error to remove files from /etc/X11R6/bin - that's what i did - after that i can't continue the installation :(
[01:46] <eagle1> k
[01:46] <triade> enkidu: yes, normally they're formatted "vfat", you need *nix filesystem to install.
[01:46] <Nyto-RJ> the heading of a cd-iso come with CD into it
[01:46] <eagle1> sorry for the shitty questions ;)
[01:46] <eugman> Can someone tell me what a whitebox with a star in synaptic means?
[01:46] <Mirro> where can i make Fonts bigger?
[01:46] <Nox_ville> sorry.. it might not have been u..
[01:46] <enkidu> triade: what do you mean ?
[01:46] <Nyto-RJ> so i cant be burn the same way
[01:46] <Nox_ville> !BluetoothRemoteControl
[01:46] <mjr> Dr_willis, udf is the canonical dvd filesystem, though most often there is an iso-9660 one there too, and udf's presence is by no means given
[01:46] <Dr_willis> Mirro,  theres a FONTS program in the control-center thinggy
[01:46] <Mirro> Font Preferences doesnt make anything change
[01:46] <enkidu> triade: so, when formatting, I have to chose vfat instead of ext, right?
[01:46] <soundray> wk: why can't you continue?
[01:46] <Lam_> !aiglx > Lam_
[01:47] <triade> enkidu: vfat = DOS/win98
[01:47] <jojoman02> soundray: ahh, thanks for the info, that is forunate, we do have more important decisions
[01:47] <azureal> Nox_ville, it wasnt a command that i said, it was a configuration of /etc/network/interfaces ...
[01:47] <aquarius> Whatsisname: I'm not sure whether I should reboot or not, or try and rerun the upgrade after uninstalling the broken packages, or how to work out whether my system is inconsistent.
[01:47] <elriah> Woo hoo! 24k/sec!
[01:47] <A[D] minS> !ram
[01:47] <A[D] minS> !low memory
[01:47] <Nox_ville> azureal: please would you explaing howto set up a wireless network then....
[01:47] <wk> soundray: i get some perl errors when trying sudo apt-get -f install
[01:47] <Nox_ville> the other methods not working..
[01:47] <boricua> where are the release notes for edgy
[01:47] <Dr_willis> !network-manager
[01:47] <jojoman02> is anyone not feeling feisty fawn? i wasn't feeling dapper drake but then at the end it really had a ring to it
[01:47] <Leone> what the kernel version for breezy?
[01:47] <Nyto-RJ> anyway, im trying to save time and money to install the 6.10
[01:47] <boricua> where are the release notes for edgy
[01:47] <helloyo> how do i set the installation resolution of edgy?
[01:47] <Laucsap> Just a line to say : Bravo, Edgy Eft runs soo much better! Bye :)
[01:47] <eagle1> quite easy with synaptic :)))
[01:47] <soundray> wk: can you put them up on the pastebin so we can have a look
[01:47] <Nyto-RJ> ive got a lot of dvd-rs
[01:47] <Nox_ville> !wtf
[01:48] <elriah> Is there anyway to encrypt an entire filesystem?  i.e., to prevent someone from just mounting your OS disk with another operating system bypassing all your security?
[01:48] <ubotu> eagle1: For upgrading, please see the instructions on: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes (you can also find this URL in the channel topic: type "/topic")
[01:48] <Whatsisname> aquarius, O
[01:48] <azureal> Nox_ville, er... if your card is working, all you really need to do is change /etc/network/interfaces
[01:48] <Whatsisname> i'm not sure either
[01:48] <dutchy> Feisty Fawn is kindof a shitty name :>
[01:48] <Nyto-RJ> dont wanto to buy a cdr
[01:48] <Dr_willis> elriah,  yes its doable.
[01:48] <triade> enkidu: no not vfat. That doesn't have file permissions needed by *nix.
[01:48] <azureal> and then reboot, maybe
[01:48] <Leone> whats the kernel version for breezy?
[01:48] <aquarius> Whatsisname: ?
[01:48] <khaije> has anyone here played w/ the smart package manager?
[01:48] <Leone> whats the kernel version for dapper!!?
[01:48] <Leone> sory
[01:48] <eagle1> ubotu, you bot r very lagged u know? :)
[01:48] <Whatsisname> I'd try having it fix the broken packages then start again
[01:48] <elriah> Dr_Willis: How?
[01:48] <Mirro> I dunno why, but Font Preferences makes NO CHANGE
[01:48] <khaije> is it strong enough for server use? (the smart package manager)
[01:48] <Sionide> khaije, synaptic ? or something else?
[01:48] <Whatsisname> otherwise back up your data, and repartition your disk because you should have a /home partition anyway
[01:48] <helloyo> how do i set installation resolution?
[01:48] <AlReece45> Dr_willis: I read that page, and as I thought that doesn't help my situation. Kubuntu-desktop made a new splash image, and now that its not installed anymore, I want the old one back. how do i get the ubuntu splash back instead of kubuntu splash?
[01:48] <Whatsisname> if you had one this problem would be no sweat
[01:48] <enkidu> triade: so, I just install edgy same as on a hard drive ?
[01:49] <aquarius> Whatsisname: OK
[01:49] <azureal> Nox_ville, if you have wep encryption it might be a bit more complex..and you'd need to add the wep key into interfaces
[01:49] <Nox_ville> azureal: what file again.>?
[01:49] <khaije> Sionide: maybe dpkg knows...
[01:49] <khaije> !smart
[01:49] <aquarius> Whatsisname: if /home partitions are that important then surely the installer should encourage you to create one?
[01:49] <azureal> Nox_ville, /etc/network/interfaces  =)
[01:49] <triade> enkidu: that's it. just point it to /dev/sda or so.
[01:49] <khaije> !smart
[01:49] <wk> soundray: that's a little bit difficult, because i have no ssh connection to the pc :( how can i start ssh? :)
[01:49] <Dr_willis> AlReece45,  you fix the links i recall that its made.. i dont worry about the useless eye candy..i disable all the splash bolony.
[01:49] <A[D] minS> how i can add to Live CD boot swap drive ?
[01:49] <Nox_ville> thats a  directory tho
[01:49] <enkidu> triade: ok, cool if it works...
[01:49] <Whatsisname> i would think so, however seperate home partitions make things sketchy if you dual boot with windows
[01:49] <A[D] minS> because i have lowram
[01:49] <soundray> wk: 'sudo /etc/init.d/ssh start'
[01:49] <Whatsisname> although it might not be so bad anymore now that there is ntfs write support
[01:50] <helloyo> could somebody please help me install edgy? i just need to get the correct resolution
[01:50] <finalbeta> Anyone else having problems with vino not rendering correct images whit fglrx installed?
[01:50] <enkidu> triade: so why did you suggest me to use slax ? just because of the size ?
[01:50] <Leone> whats the kernel version for dapper!!?
[01:50] <Dr_willis> A[D] minS,  i thought the live cd scanned and used swap partiions it found -
[01:50] <triade> enkidu: your box will have to support booting from USB to be able to use it.
[01:50] <Nox_ville> azureal: thats a  directory tho
[01:50] <wk> soundray: i just tried this... :) no ssh there...
[01:50] <soundray> wk 'sudo apt-get install ssh'
[01:50] <azureal> Nox_ville, ?!
[01:50] <enkidu> triade: it already works with DSL
[01:50] <ubotu> For upgrading, please see the instructions on: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes (you can also find this URL in the channel topic: type "/topic")
[01:50] <Whatsisname> i have a dedicated /home partition and because of that I could totally hose my install, and I wouldn't really be all the upset, because my data would be protected, I could reinstall and be back like I was before in under 20 minutes
[01:50] <A[D] minS> Dr_willis: in xubuntu it not doing
[01:50] <azureal> Nox_ville, i was the one who gave you an example of my interfaces file, remember?
[01:50] <khaije> Sionide: I'll find a link to show you what i'm talking about (it's not synaptic)
[01:51] <Dr_willis> A[D] minS,  could edit the fstab and/or use the swapon command.
[01:51] <Whatsisname> and the moment I login everything would be like it was
[01:51] <Nyto-RJ> does anyone know how to convert the cd-iso of installation cd image to dvd-iso..... HELP!!!
[01:51] <A[D] minS> so Dr_willis what i can add to grub boot?
[01:51] <triade> enkidu: yes, size matters.:-) and it has smaller footprint = faster.
[01:51] <Whatsisname> including the mess of icnos on my desktop
[01:51] <Nox_ville> azureal: soz.. .got it now..
[01:51] <A[D] minS> Dr_willis: when i do swapon it freez
[01:51] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about BluetoothRemoteControl - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[01:51] <AlReece45> Dr_willis: shouldn't removing kubuntu-desktop remove the links that changed the splash image?
[01:51] <Munchkinguy> Ubuntu doesn't agree well with my S3 ViRGE video card. There all sorts of artefacts when I move the mouse. Any suggestions?
[01:51] <Code-E> LOL
[01:51] <dooglus> is there a list of mirrors which have edgy in their apt repositories?  I've been using cz.archive.ubuntu.com, not realising that it doesn't have edgy final
[01:51] <Leone> which kernel i must install in dapper!??!?
[01:51] <soundray> Nyto-RJ: I would have thought you can burn the CD iso to a DVD without any conversion... have you tried?
[01:51] <Dr_willis> AlReece45,  thats just a meta-pacakge - it dont remove diddle.
[01:51] <triade> enkidu: slax has special USB edition.works very well.
[01:52] <Whatsisname> Munchkinguy, are you sure your card isn't toast
[01:52] <Nox_ville> azureal: whats the dif between wlan0 and ath0 ?
[01:52] <Whatsisname> i've used an S3 virge before
[01:52] <pobstil> hey an
[01:52] <wk> soundray: i can't install anything because of dependency problems
[01:52] <jbroome> Nox_ville: different wireless drivers
[01:52] <enkidu> triade: i'm looking at it
[01:52] <Code-E> !ubotu > Code-E
[01:52] <Code-E> ;(
[01:52] <Munchkinguy> Whatsisname: Works fine on Fedora with a bit of tweaking.
[01:52] <Nyto-RJ> soundray , on nero it s not possible
[01:52] <AlReece45> Dr_willis: I also removed everything with kde or kubuntu in the name
[01:52] <Nox_ville> jbroome: oh.. should ath0 be fine tho
[01:52] <azureal> Nox_ville, i dont know what those are...
[01:53] <Nyto-RJ> i think if its burn , it wont boot from it
[01:53] <jbroome> beats me, depends on your card
[01:53] <Nox_ville> azureal: k.. otherwise my file was exactly as you said it should be anyway...
[01:53] <triade> enkidu: you can try edgy but you'll have to take off a lot of surplus.
[01:53] <Dr_willis> AlReece45,  sounds like a lot of work for nothing. :P i tend to Install kde and gnome and xfce.. and  most stuff.
[01:53] <Nox_ville> azureal: what next
[01:53] <enkidu> triade: i can't find the usb stick edition of slax
[01:53] <azureal> Nox_ville, er.. so you have two interfaces, but they're not called eth0 and eth1? they're called something else.. ?
[01:53] <Code-E> heh
[01:53] <Code-E> Ubotu is ignoring me
[01:53] <Nyto-RJ> to install 6.06 i tried to emulate the cd-iso , extract , then burn it into dvd-r
[01:53] <Nyto-RJ> it did not boot
[01:53] <khaije> Sionide: this is what I was wondering about... http://labix.org/smart but I think i've already answered my own question
[01:53] <Nyto-RJ> from it
[01:54] <enkidu> triade: nor how to install it
[01:54] <soundray> wk: some combination of 'sudo apt-get -f install', 'sudo apt-get dist-upgrade' and 'sudo dpkg --configure -a' should get it going again.
[01:54] <helloyo> could somebody please help me! i know this is simple to a lot of you!
[01:54] <khaije> it doesn't sounds ready
[01:54] <triade> enkidu: umm, it's called "popcorn" iirc.
[01:54] <Whatsisname> Code-E, its not in the channel right now
[01:54] <Nox_ville> azureal: yes.. one wired ethernet (eth0) and one wireless (named ath0)
[01:54] <Code-E> yeah it is
[01:54] <Code-E> And im messaging it
[01:54] <Code-E> O_O
[01:54] <mjr> Nyto-RJ, it wouldn't. You missed the el torito boot sector creation options, no doubt
[01:54] <boricua> i initiated the gui upgrade but i dont like the eta  8 hrs is there a way to stop the upgrade so i can try later
[01:54] <enkidu> triade: ok, I found it, thanks!
[01:54] <soundray> wk: if you have a failing postinst script, it may be worth forcing a success on that by inserting 'exit 0' as the second line.
[01:54] <mjr> Nyto-RJ, did you actually try to burn the ISO straight to DVD?
[01:54] <triade> enkidu: have fun! :-)
[01:54] <Sionide> khaije, looks a bit like autopackage et al
[01:55] <boricua> currently its fetching and installing upgrdes
[01:55] <frodo>  i have slow speed in net connection is there a mirrors to be added in synaptic repository in Edgy?
[01:55] <Rockfish> !automatix
[01:55] <frodo> pleas
[01:55] <Nyto-RJ> yeah , with nero !!!!
[01:55] <enkidu> triade: but it's for very small usb stick... it lacks a lot of stuffs...
[01:55] <elriah> How would I encrypt my /var/www/ directory and still allow apache2 to read the files?
[01:55] <azureal> Nox_ville, ok, so now you have entries in /etc/network/interfaces  for the ath0 essid ... if the card was already configured before(drivers, etc), the changes to the interfaces file should do it...
[01:55] <Dr_willis> elriah,  that would be a neat trick.
[01:55] <khaije> Sionide: although it's being championed by some people, i still don't see how it's better maybe it will become clear after more development
[01:55] <elriah> I want to protect some php source code...
[01:56] <triade> enkidu: you can add once installed or make your own...whatever.
[01:56] <azureal> Nox_ville, perhaps a reboot.
[01:56] <Nox_ville> azureal: it isn't doing tho..
[01:56] <helloyo> how do i set my install resolution!?
[01:56] <Nyto-RJ> but its not possible
[01:56] <Nox_ville> azureal: i have already..
[01:56] <mjr> Nyto-RJ, ah. Well. Apparently somebody else has the same problem. With Nero. : http://club.cdfreaks.com/showthread.php?t=143236
[01:56] <Vich> where are custom made themes stored?
[01:56] <Vich> I'm trying to delete one
[01:57] <helloyo> i cannot install edgy because the resolution is wrong, can somebody PLEASE help
[01:57] <Nox_ville> azureal: but still its not working....
[01:57] <soundray> helloyo: at what point does it fail?
[01:58] <azureal> Nox_ville, when i started talking about interfaces file, you'd said that the card was already configured, and just wouldn't connect to that access pt... if that was true then the interfaces changes should be enough to connect to a wireless network w/o a WEP key
[01:58] <Firebird88> does sudo apt-get dist-upgrade not work for ubuntu server?
[01:58] <Nox_ville> helloyo: when booting... choose safe mode.
[01:58] <helloyo> soundray: thankyou! every option i change will result in the screen being "out of range" and i can't change that
[01:58] <Nox_ville> azureal: k.. brb
[01:58] <helloyo> Nox_ville: i tried that, the screen was still out of range, and ctrl alt + didn't change it like before
[01:58] <Nyto-RJ> will try
[01:58] <azureal> nod, me too
[01:58] <azureal> i need to restart as well
[01:59] <Nox_ville> helloyo: sorry.. i fixed mine that way tho..
[01:59] <salkot> I tried to upgrad using update-manager, but it crashed with "can't find DistUpgradeViewGtk"
[01:59] <Nyto-RJ> i use bonfire with Ubuntu
[01:59] <Nyto-RJ> will try
[01:59] <Nyto-RJ> 73 %  downloaded
[01:59] <Nyto-RJ> just waiting
[01:59] <Nyto-RJ> to try
[01:59] <helloyo> Nox_ville: yeah, it helped a little, the bootsplash came up, but then the desktop was still out of range
[01:59] <Nox_ville> oh..
[01:59] <Vich> I've been asking questions in here for the past 2 days and getting no answers
[02:00] <Vich> every single time I've gone and figured it out myself (painfully)
[02:00] <boricua> i would like to stop the upgrade since it is slow how can i do that?
[02:00] <soundray> helloyo: is it possible that your monitor is broken? During installation, ubuntu uses VESA modes that should be available on all monitors.
[02:00] <Nox_ville> Vich... ill try help...
[02:00] <Vich> lol
[02:00] <Ellias> is anyone having issues trying to upgrade to edgy with apt-get? when i do apt-get dist-upgrade it finds zero new packages?
[02:00] <Vich> it's ok
[02:00] <Vich> I am learning
[02:00] <ubuntugrrrr> Oh darn....
[02:00] <soundray> !upgrade | Ellias
[02:00] <nalioth> hi ubuntugrrrr
[02:00] <livingdaylight> i'm having a Steve Ballmer moment here: "DEVELOPERS, DEVELOPERS, DEVELOPERS!!..."
[02:00] <livingdaylight> http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bhUAr-P_39U
[02:00] <ubuntugrrrr> I suppose this is a first come first serve kind of deal?
[02:00] <ubuntugrrrr> how long is the line? :/
[02:00] <pobstil> hey how can I find the install prefix of a program?
[02:00] <Vich> not really ubuntugrrrr
[02:00] <nalioth> ubuntugrrrr: just ask your question  :)
[02:00] <helloyo> soundray: i wouldn't say broken, maybe not the most compliant... in dapper this would happen and i could pres ctrl alt + and go into a mode that worked, is it possible to change the xorg.conf file in the live boot?
[02:01] <Vich> you just ask
[02:01] <livingdaylight> Long Live EDGY EFT!
[02:01] <boricua> i would like to stop the upgrade since it is slow how can i do that?
[02:01] <ubuntugrrrr> my question.. umm.
[02:01] <Vich> and if someone knows the answer they say it
[02:01] <ubuntugrrrr> how do i use the thing
[02:01] <Nox_ville> for BluetoothRemoteControl.... can i interface it with a program like SallingClicker?
[02:01] <livingdaylight> UBUNTU ROCKS!
[02:01] <Vich> if they don't
[02:01] <Vich> you get ignored
[02:01] <nalioth> boricua: there is really no way to safely stop it
[02:01] <SurfnKid> should have named this release WEDGY WEDGE
[02:01] <boricua> nalioth: that sucks
[02:01] <ubuntugrrrr> i know nothing about linux.. i have no idea how to install anything
[02:01] <pobstil> hey how can I find the install prefix of a program?
[02:01] <livingdaylight> THANKS TO THE DEVELOPERS AT CANONICAL and EVERYWHERE ELSE
[02:01] <boricua> nalioth: that sucks and its a serious bug in my opinion
[02:01] <ubuntugrrrr> and for some reason i cant login as root
[02:01] <Nox_ville> whoa.. check out how funny www.meatspin.com is ... its amazing
[02:01] <jbroome> !caps
[02:01] <LjL> !caps | livingdaylight
[02:01] <Ellias> is anyone having issues trying to upgrade to edgy with apt-get? when i do apt-get dist-upgrade it finds zero new packages?
[02:01] <nalioth> ubuntugrrrr: there is no root
[02:01] <ubuntugrrrr> and i know i used a password that I remember
[02:01] <|Sivik|> ubuntugrrrr: you can't log into root in ubuntuy
[02:01] <jbroome> ubuntugrrrr: something must be broken
[02:02] <nalioth> !tell ubuntugrrrr about sudo
[02:02] <speedy> after upgrading i got no sound
[02:02] <Nox_ville> Ellias: yes
[02:02] <livingdaylight> LjL, calm down :)
[02:02] <felipe__> Holas, alguien me puede dar el link para bajar el torrent del kubuntu edgy?
[02:02] <nalioth> jbroome: there is no root  /msg ubotu sudo
[02:02] <LjL> [01:51]  <-- ubotu has left this server (Excess Flood).
[02:02] <cafuego> boricua: If it's still only downloading, just cancel it ot hit ctrl-c. If it's installing packages and replacing software, you cannot stop it now.
[02:02] <Viper550> Flow_ville: NO NO NO! Not Meatspin, FTL!
[02:02] <felipe__> no lo encuentro en la pagina de downloads
[02:02] <ubuntugrrrr> ehhh
[02:02] <felipe__> solo hay el torrent para el dvd
[02:02] <ubuntugrrrr> oh and the main thing...
[02:02] <ubuntugrrrr> it wont let me access my 2nd hard drive
[02:02] <boricua> cafuego: using update-manager
[02:02] <Ellias> Nox_ville I dont suppose you have a fix?
[02:02] <ubuntugrrrr> it says its not removable and cannot be mounted
[02:02] <LjL> felipe: va en #ubuntu-es para hablar espaol por favor, aqui hablamos ingles
[02:02] <Viper550> I mean Nox_ville, sorry
[02:02] <Nox_ville> no..
[02:02] <cafuego> boricua: is is downloading still?
[02:02] <nalioth> ubuntugrrrr: did you get a private message from ubotu ?
[02:02] <soundray> Ellias: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EdgyUpgrades -- follow the apt-get instructions
[02:02] <dooglus> does someone know of a central europe ubuntu mirror which has the edgy repos please?
[02:02] <ubuntugrrrr> no I did not
[02:03] <boricua> cafuego: fetching
[02:03] <Viper550> but still. You will NOT like Meatspin. p.s. It won't even work without Flash! p.s.2. also cocks
[02:03] <nalioth> ubuntugrrrr: are you sure?
[02:03] <cafuego> boricua: Then yes, you can kill it.
[02:03] <soundray> dooglus: de.archive.ubuntu.com
[02:03] <helloyo> soundray: is there a boot command that will put me into 1280x960 mode?
[02:03] <boricua> cafuego: how
[02:03] <ubuntugrrrr> nalioth... there is no message anywhere on my screen from ubotu
[02:03] <ubuntugrrrr> i'm 100%sure
[02:03] <helloyo> soundray: or a way to change resolution when booted?
[02:03] <pobstil> hey how can I find the install prefix of a program?
[02:03] <soundray> helloyo: hold on...
[02:03] <cafuego> boricua: open system monitor and kill the upate process.
[02:03] <helloyo> soundray: thanks
[02:03] <|Sivik|> helloyo: you have to set up the xorg.conf to use that
[02:03] <dooglus> soundray: thanks.  that's close enough.
[02:03] <boricua> cafuego: i mean 5 hrs is to much
[02:03] <DJAdmiral> People, congratulations on a new Ubuntu release!
[02:04] <nalioth> ubuntugrrrr: i see.  please initiate a private message to ubotu and say "sudo" to it
[02:04] <cafuego> boricua: Seems a tad long, yes.
[02:04] <ryanakca> how do I create a 512mb swap file? dd if=/dev/zero of=/swapfile bs=1024 count=512       ?
[02:04] <cafuego> boricua: Hold on.
[02:04] <helloyo> |Sivik|: yeah, is there a way to do that with the live cd? change the xorg.conf, then restart the server?
[02:04] <gop_> !samba
[02:04] <wk> soundray: now i get errors while processing the x11-common package
[02:04] <cafuego> boricua: Is it possible it has already upgraded some stuff and is now doing more?
[02:04] <DJAdmiral> A very very happy day to all! :D
[02:04] <Mark1412> Quick question for anyone that can answer
[02:04] <ubuntugrrrr> does gaim lag horribly or what
[02:04] <nalioth> ubuntugrrrr: gaim is not the best irc client. perhaps you could try xchat or some other dedicated irc client
[02:04] <cafuego> ryanakca: yah
[02:04] <azureal> wow, that was a bit weird
[02:04] <Mark1412> What program burns .wma music onto a cd
[02:04] <gop_> !smbfs
[02:04] <ubuntugrrrr> well how am i supposed to do that
[02:04] <ubuntugrrrr> i have no idea how to install anything on here
[02:05] <livingdaylight> LjL, did you watch my youtube link?
[02:05] <wk> soundray: he tries to overwrite /usr/X11R6/bin or something and than seems to have an error
[02:05] <cafuego> ubuntugrrrr: Stsrem -> Administration -> Synaptic
[02:05] <nalioth> ubuntugrrrr: one question at a time  :)
[02:05] <pobstil> hey how can I find the install prefix of a program?
[02:05] <boricua> cafuego: i dont see update-maanger in system resources
[02:05] <Mark1412> What program burns .wma music onto a cd
[02:05] <DJAdmiral> Mark1412: Try Gnomebaker. Best you convert music using Audacity first.
[02:05] <|Sivik|> Mark1412: wma is not really a supported file for ubuntu  .ogg is the format that linux has when you rip from disc, you might try converting .wma to .ogg
[02:05] <nalioth> pobstil: can you ask your question in a different way? i don't understand what you are asking.
[02:05] <LjL> livingdaylight: don't have flash ;)
[02:05] <trafaelwyr> good evening all
[02:05] <cafuego> boricua: it'll be in the process list, but I have no idea what it would be called.
[02:05] <ubuntugrrrr> can I rip my hair out now
[02:05] <Mark1412> Djadmiral- audacity does not support .wma
[02:05] <ubuntugrrrr> or should I scalp myself first..
[02:05] <soundray> helloyo: not with vesafb, sorry. Only 1280x1024
[02:05] <|Sivik|> ubuntugrrrr: whats the current problem
[02:05] <cafuego> ubuntugrrrr: Of course, if you think it will help ;-)
[02:05] <Nyto-RJ> nite all
[02:05] <Mark1412> |sivik| what do you suggest i use to convert
[02:05] <Nyto-RJ> bye
[02:06] <livingdaylight> LjL, geez, so all you can notice is when someone types in capitals?
[02:06] <Nyto-RJ> thx for the helps
[02:06] <ubuntugrrrr> i've got so many problems I can barely remember everything I just listed
[02:06] <cin> Hey, I've got a laptop and I'm using it with a second screen only, when I modify my xorg.conf to use 1280x1024 resolution, it defaults to 1024 (I think because that is what my laptop's screen can do) and I can't seem to modify it with GNOME's screen resolution settings dialog.
[02:06] <ubuntugrrrr> a) my 2nd hard drive wont mount
[02:06] <cafuego> livingdaylight: SORRY, WHERE?
[02:06] <|Sivik|> ubuntugrrrr: first problem
[02:06] <nalioth> ubuntugrrrr: new things take time to learn
[02:06] <ubuntugrrrr> b) i dont know how to install anything
[02:06] <helloyo> soundray: ok, is there a way to shutdown the xserver off the live cd as i change the xorg.conf, then restart it?
[02:06] <livingdaylight> LjL, are you like a free software ideologist/fanatic?
[02:06] <wk> soundray: i have ssh access from the other pc (where i'm updating) to this pc here, i could copy the file with the outputs (but they are in german) - would it help u?
[02:06] <|Sivik|> cin: do you have the drivers install for the video card
[02:06] <livingdaylight> cafuego, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bhUAr-P_39U
[02:06] <ubuntugrrrr> c) I really know nothing about ubuntu and i havent found a good learning source as of yet
[02:06] <LjL> livingdaylight, what is the problem? you wrote two messages in full capitals, you probably know it is not appreciated, i saw them, and i had ubotu warn you. end of story.
[02:06] <Dr_willis> ubuntugrrrr,  the answer to b) is synaptic.. unless you are refering to somthign specific.
[02:06] <nalioth> ubuntugrrrr: let's get you on an irc client that works a bit better, i think it'd be of help
[02:06] <pobstil> nalioth: well I'm trying to fix gtkpod, it always crashes with the error: tkpod: symbol lookup error: gtkpod: undefined symbol: itdb_device_set_mountpoint.
[02:06] <gop_> is the bot down
[02:07] <DJAdmiral> Mark1412: You tried installing w32codecs?
[02:07] <jbroome> !bot
[02:07] <cin> |Sivik|, what command can I use to find out what video card Linux recognises?
[02:07] <Dr_willis> ubuntugrrrr,  c)  tldp.org and the ubuntu homepage/wiki/forums
[02:07] <nalioth> pobstil: that is a compilation error, i suspect.
[02:07] <gop_> ! samba
[02:07] <DJAdmiral> !w32codecs
[02:07] <azureal> these upgrades always do that!
[02:07] <azureal> they reset nearly everything
[02:07] <livingdaylight> LjL, its a simple question
[02:07] <Mark1412> djadmiral
[02:07] <LjL> livingdaylight, are you trying to pick up a fight for some reason to me unknown? because it looks like so
[02:07] <Ellias> Soundray: thanks for your help, i mistakenly forgot to edit the sources.list file, which was why it wasnt upgrading ;)

[02:08] <Mark1412> DJAdmiral I think i am
[02:08] <soundray> helloyo: I don't know if that's possible. Maybe you can continue in the console with Ctrl-Alt-F1?
[02:08] <livingdaylight> LjL, i was celebrating, and sharing a funny moment with everyone. But you couldn't see it because you don't have flash nor a sense of humour on this day of celebration, BUt your mind could only see Capitals, lol

[02:09] <cin> |Sivik|, bash: lscpi: command not found -- nooooo! :(
[02:09] <|Sivik|> cin: the reason why only a few resoluatoins is that you don't/probably don't have the drivers installed correctly for your video card
[02:09] <Mark1412> DJAdmiral ok
[02:09] <|Sivik|> cin: lspci
[02:09] <|Sivik|> cin: not lscpi

[02:09] <DJAdmiral> Mark1412: Is there a new tab in this chat window for you?
[02:09] <trafaelwyr> I've recently installed Ubuntu (going on a week now) - coming from Win2kPro - so this is all still quite new to me.  Anyways, I have a question:  how do you create a folder?
[02:10] <_ph00> the upgrade is just running dist-upgrade or should I set "edgy" intead of "dapper" in source.list first (if omething more/other than that, plz point me to a good howto)
[02:10] <cin> Got it. Eek. Big list.
[02:10] <nalioth> pobstil: why are you in #ubuntu asking? why not in #archlinux ?
[02:10] <kevin1> Is there a way to change the color of tomboy notes?  I am not seeing and was wondering if I am overlooking it?
[02:10] <DJAdmiral> trafaelwyr: In the terminal, or in the filebrowser?
[02:10] <|Sivik|> _ph00: you have to change the sources.list first
[02:10] <LjL> !upgrade  | _ph00
[02:10] <speedy> i lost sound after upgrading to edgy..
[02:10] <_ph00> then I do dist upgrade?
[02:10] <dooglus> soundray: that .de mirror is surprisingly fast, considering the recent release.  I'm surprised the .cz mirror is a week out of date though!
[02:10] <livingdaylight> nalioth, huh? i wasn't being disrespectful. Are you taking sides?
[02:10] <LjL> _ph00: look at the channel topic
[02:10] <Mark1412> DJAdmiral yes, im in it
[02:10] <aquarius> trafaelwyr: right-click and say Create Folder, or say File > Create Folder.

[02:10] <LjL> livingdaylight, *please*, take the discussion to -offtopic.
[02:10] <pobstil> nalioth: because noone in there uses gtkpod, and theres no mention of it in arch's forums, whereas there is in the ubuntu forums
[02:10] <|Sivik|> _ph00: change the sources.list file, sudo apt-get update, then sudo apt-get dist-upgrade
[02:10] <DJAdmiral> Mark1412: Are you getting my private messages then?
[02:10] <cin> |Sivik|, so should I search the forum for this model?

[02:11] <Mark1412> DJAdmiral i got the first 2 you sent
[02:11] <|Sivik|> cin: that might be a good idea
[02:11] <trafaelwyr> DJAdmiral:  well, err...I guess the filebrowser?
[02:11] <nalioth> livingdaylight: you should join #ubuntu-offtopic as suggested please
[02:11] <Dr_willis> Chippy,  ya right click on omthing and it shows up under a menu there.
[02:11] <Ademan> chippy, run the nautilus script manager and enable it
[02:11] <jrib> Chippy: you should be able to right click in nautilus and have a scripts menu
[02:11] <|Sivik|> cin: try the ubuntuforums.org
[02:11] <_ph00> oh. there's a link to an upgrade howto
[02:11] <_ph00> OK

[02:11] <Mark1412> DJAdmiral i did

[02:12] <Chippy> Dr_willis, jrib: no script submenu
[02:12] <jrib> Chippy: what directory did you put it in exactly?
[02:12] <Ademan> chippy: nautilus-script-manager list-available and then nautilus-script-manager yourscriptname
[02:12] <Mark1412> DJAdmiral sent
[02:12] <rebelfallen> Guys it doesn't seem to matter what I do. I can't get dual monitors to work. I can get them to both display the SAME thing. So the monitors mirror each other but I don't want that I want a spanning desktop. Anyone know why it does this?
[02:12] <Chippy> jrib: ~/.gnome2/nautilus-scripts
[02:12] <DJAdmiral> Mark1412: Okay, not getting a thing. Looks like I will need to help you out through here. Give me a sec.
[02:13] <Ademan> rebelfallen: have you modified your xorg.conf? can you show us your xorg.conf?
[02:13] <soundray> rebelfallen: you need to look into xinerama and/or twinview
[02:13] <Vich> I did it again!
[02:13] <trafaelwyr> DJAdmiral:  right click where?
[02:13] <Chippy> Ademan: no nautilus-script-manager?
[02:13] <Mark1412> DJAdmiral ok. To make things easier, is there a program that will burn wma files? or must i use a codec
[02:13] <DJAdmiral> trafaelwyr: In any empty space in your file browser.
[02:13] <Ademan> Chippy: you don't have it? then you need to install the package, i believe thats the package name as well
[02:13] <rebelfallen> twinview eh hmm
[02:13] <soundray> wk: how are you getting on?
[02:14] <Ademan> does metacity support window groups?
[02:14] <DJAdmiral> Mark1412: No, wma is a commercial codec, and Ubuntu is free, so... you need to acquire the codec from a trusted 3rd party source.
[02:14] <tam> would there be any reason why .bash_profile wouldn't be doing its job correctly by sourcing the .bashrc file in my home dir?
[02:14] <Chippy> Ademan: alright, thanks

[02:14] <aquarius> If I ran the upgrade manager to go to Edgy, and it broke halfway through, and I've now fixed the thing that caused it to break, should I run the update manager again to make it continue?
[02:14] <Mark1412> DJAdmiral: ok
[02:14] <Ademan> Chippy: no problem, hope it helps
[02:14] <speedy> mafeesh soot khales
[02:14] <|Sivik|> aquarius: that might be a good idea to try
[02:14] <DJAdmiral> ark1412: Don't worry, for you it'll still be free, but due to legal restrictions commercial codecs cannot be stored directly in Ubuntu CDs or repoes.
[02:14] <hss> how can i upgrade 6.06lts *
[02:15] <LjL> !upgrade > hss
[02:15] <hss> what is the true sources.list
[02:15] <wk> soundray: tell me if u need translations for certain things
[02:15] <soundray> wk: run 'sudo dpkg -i --force-overwrite /var/cache/apt/archives/x11-common_1%3a7.1.1ubuntu6_i386.deb', then try again
[02:15] <pobstil> nalioth: because noone in there uses gtkpod, and theres no mention of it in arch's forums, whereas there is in the ubuntu forums
[02:15] <aquarius> |Sivik|: it can cope with picking up with a machine which is half upgraded?
[02:15] <nalioth> aquarius: yes
[02:15] <|thunder> hss 'sudo apt-get dist-upgrade' i think
[02:15] <DJAdmiral> Mark1412: This should be able to help you out. https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats
[02:15] <Ademan> soundray: i had that error, it was a pain to get around, i can show you exactly what i did though
[02:15] <hss> i now but what is the true sources.list
[02:15] <|Sivik|> aquarius: probably
[02:15] <aquarius> |Sivik|: ok, will give it a try.
[02:15] <soundray> Ademan: which error? The font problem?
[02:16] <kevin1> Is there a way to change the color of tomboy notes?
[02:16] <Ademan> no x11-common
[02:16] <soundray> wk: danke, brauch ich nicht ;)
[02:16] <Ademan> OH wait, you were helping someone else lol
[02:16] <ubuntugrrrrr> Alright...
[02:16] <deema> how can I change my refresh rate? I tried system preferences, but it only shows 85 hz, my monitor supports 100hz
[02:16] <Ademan> man this channel is busy
[02:17] <Ademan> deema: your eye can only see 30hz anyways... lol
[02:17] <LjL> Ademan: new release, you know
[02:17] <Ademan> well technically
[02:17] <jrib> Chippy: you may need to reload nautilus (I just tried adding a script and had to close my nautilus and open it again for it to show up)
[02:17] <Mark1412> DJAdmiral Thanks alot
[02:17] <nalioth> !tell ubuntugrrrrr about sudo
[02:17] <deema> that's great
[02:17] <Munchkinguy> is there something like XF86Setup for ubuntu?
[02:17] <Tompu> deema: You're going to need to edit your /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[02:17] <deema> I tried
[02:17] <Ademan> LjL: ?
[02:17] <Stormx2> Yeaaas! I am thinking I am loving edgy. My last attempts to get compiz installed ruined my system. This time I followed a howto, and it still didn't work. Luckily I just restored the backup of my xorg.conf file and i got back a fully functioning system! <3 ubuntu
[02:17] <deema> it didn't work
[02:17] <LjL> Munchkinguy: perhaps sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[02:17] <deema> can you hel?
[02:17] <deema> help
[02:17] <nalioth> !tell Munchkinguy about xcfg
[02:17] <wk> soundray: na toll und ich kram hier mhsam meine englisch kenntnisse zusammen ;) - aber scheint zu gehen... danke erstmal!
[02:17] <Chippy> Ademan: the script manager doesn't list the script I tried to add.  I put the script in ~/.gnome2/nautilus-scripts, is that right?
[02:17] <Ademan> deema: what do you mean "you tried" ?
[02:17] <LjL> Ademan: i meant, there's a lot of traffic because there's a new ubuntu release out. mind you, there's always quite a bit of traffic, but now there's more
[02:17] <Tompu> deema: preface your messages with the name of the person you're talking to please
[02:18] <soundray> wk: back to English, or we could get kicked
[02:18] <nalioth> wk soundray /join #ubuntu-de bitte
[02:18] <Chippy> jrib: how do you reload nautilus?
[02:18] <Ademan> Chippy: hrm, i honestly don't know, i dunno what to tell you, maybe in ##gnome?
[02:18] <deema> ademan: I entered my monitor's horizontal and vertical frequency
[02:18] <Davey> I'm having issues with my software RAID, can anyone shed some light on this? http://hashphp.org/pastebin?pid=9100
[02:18] <Chu> If I wanted to essentially reinstall Edgy, should I reinstall ubuntu-desktop from synaptic?
[02:18] <Ademan> LjL: ah yes, well i generally idle in this channel :-)
[02:18] <jrib> Chippy: I just closed nautilus and opened it again, but I am reading on the g-scripts faq that you can just navigate with nautilus to the scripts directory and it should detect them
[02:18] <trafaelwyr> DJAdmiral:  hmm....how about in the terminal.  you see, I have 2 hdd - a 40gb and a 250gb (this one I have to tinker with as it's the slave drive - ntfs).  the 40gb is where I have Ubuntu installed.  how would I create a folder there?
[02:18] <Ma1> could anyone give me a clue how can I make my own font ?
[02:18] <mike> when i run gksu "update-manager -c" and clicked upgrade i got this error :"Failed to fetch http://packages.freecontrib.org/ubuntu/plf/dists/breezy/Release.gpg Temporary failure resolving packages.freecontrib.org" is there a way to fix this?
[02:19] <Ademan> Chu: i dunno if reinstalling one package reinstalls all packages it depends on...
[02:19] <Chippy> jrib: how do you navigate with nautilus (I saw that too, but had no idea how)
[02:19] <nalioth> mike: freecontrib is not offical, and they are down atm
[02:19] <deema> Tompu, can you help
[02:19] <DJAdmiral> trafaelwyr: Try to create a folder in your Home folder.
[02:19] <Tompu> deema: what did you try?
[02:19] <deema> I entered my monitor's horizontal and vertical frequency
[02:19] <jrib> Chippy: just press ctrl-l to get the location address bar and type in ~/.gnome2/nautilus-scripts and press enter
[02:19] <Tompu> deema: in /etc/X11/xorg.conf ?
[02:19] <AbortD> how do i dist upgrade?
[02:19] <deema> tompu, yes
[02:20] <Chu> Well, would you know of a way to do it? I'd rather like to reinstall somehow... :p
[02:20] <LjL> !upgrade > abortd
[02:20] <nalioth> AbortD: did you not get a PM from ubotu ?
[02:20] <Tompu> deema: what graphics card are you using
[02:20] <soundray> Ma1: you need a font editor, e.g. fontforge. It's a *lot* of work if you want to do it right.
[02:20] <AbortD> nope i got him on ignore
[02:20] <Munchkinguy> nalioth: and this will allow me to reconfigure my graphics card and stuff like that?
[02:20] <AbortD> i want the command
[02:20] <AbortD> thats all
[02:20] <LjL> AbortD: ah, good.
[02:20] <deema> tompu, Nvidia GF2
[02:20] <nalioth> AbortD: then you suffer in your ignorance.
[02:20] <wk> okok soundrays tipp seems to work, the upgrade is going on
[02:20] <trafaelwyr> DJAdmiral:  well, when I double click on that, it shows me the folder I created (titled music).
[02:20] <nalioth> Munchkinguy: yes
[02:20] <Ademan> Chu: hrm, i honestly don't know, why do yo uwant to reinstall? whats not working?
[02:20] <AbortD> go fuck your self

[02:20] <DJAdmiral> trafaelwyr: Good then!
[02:20] <aSt3raL> is there an upgrade from 6.06 to 6.10 out?
[02:21] <jrib> aSt3raL: yes, see the topic :)
[02:21] <nalioth> aSt3raL: there is. just out today
[02:21] <Chippy> jrib: awesome, that did it.  thanks :)
[02:21] <DJAdmiral> trafaelwyr: Don't try to create folders outside of your home folder.
[02:21] <jrib> Chippy: cool, np
[02:21] <Tompu> deema: are you using the NV or nvidia driver?
[02:21] <DJAdmiral> trafaelwyr: Your home folder is meant for all your documents.
[02:21] <trafaelwyr> DJAdmiral:  no?  so, I don't want to create a folder where Local Drive is?
[02:21] <deema> Tompu: no idea
[02:21] <tam> can anyone explain why my .bash_profile doesn't get read?
[02:21] <|Sivik|> deema: you installed the drivers from apt-get correct
[02:21] <tam> i have options specified in it and they never appear to work..
[02:21] <Ma1> Hey, anyone know anything on how to make a font ?
[02:21] <deema> I just did a fresh install of Edgy
[02:22] <Chu> Ademan: I'm not getting any sort of boot messages after grub or when I shut the machine down, so I guess I should just reintall THOSE packages. But I have no idea which ones affect that... :p
[02:22] <|Sivik|> deema: then you probably haven't install the nvidia-glx files
[02:22] <DJAdmiral> trafaelwyr: No, that's meant for system.
[02:22] <ubuntugrrrrr> I'm lost....
[02:22] <|Sivik|> !nvidia
[02:22] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[02:22] <soundray> tam: it gets read only when you start a login shell. Configure everything in .bashrc instead
[02:22] <|Sivik|> follow that howto deema
[02:22] <deema> okay, thanks
[02:22] <DJAdmiral> trafaelwyr: It prevents people from messing things up
[02:22] <|Sivik|> ubuntugrrrrr: whats the problem this time?
[02:22] <Tompu> deema: search your xorg.conf for a line that says either Driver "nv" or Driver "nvidia"
[02:22] <Ademan> Chu: what do you mean boot messages? like "mounting root file system" and whatnot? i'm pretty sure they removed those...
[02:22] <ubuntugrrrrr> I am attempting to setup the script "Automatically MountPartitions" however, its asking me something about ntfs support.
[02:22] <soundray> wk: is it working for you now?
[02:22] <ubuntugrrrrr> the file system on that drive is NTFS, so do i need to enable that?
[02:22] <Chu> Ademan: I thought they replaced it. I'm getting absolutely nothing now.
[02:22] <ubuntugrrrrr> it reccommends that I do not enable it...
[02:22] <Tompu> deema: you need to use the legacy nvidia driver, not the standard drivers
[02:23] <|Sivik|> ubuntugrrrrr: if it is ntfs, then say yes, if not, say no
[02:23] <trafaelwyr> DJAdmiral:  ah, ok.  so, when I download something, say from bittorrent, I'll be able to save to that folder as an option?
[02:23] <ubuntugrrrrr> okay thank you...
[02:23] <nalioth> ubuntugrrrrr: that is correct. you should mount your ntfs drives 'read-only' for date safety
[02:23] <v1per> wow..
[02:23] <Ademan> Chu: you don't get any text? or does the ubuntu logo not show? or both?
[02:23] <deema> Tompu, I will try that, thanks
[02:23] <Ademan> Chu: cause i don't get text either, i think you're not supposed to
[02:24] <|Sivik|> deema: did you look at the link i told you to look at, about the HowTo
[02:24] <Chu> I don't get _anything_. I thought they replaced it with a ubuntu logo or something.
[02:24] <wk> soundray: it seems so, he is unpacking all the packages now, and has now correctly created the bin link in usr/X11R6/ ... but i don't believe there won't appear other errors ;)
[02:24] <speedy> how can i get the sound working on edgy eft? it was working on dapper, but after the upgrade there is no sound..
[02:24] <ubuntugrrrrr> hmm.. I'm not sure if it worked..
[02:24] <Draconicus> I've moved a hard drive with Ubuntu on it from one machine to another. Now I can't pull up dhcp with ifup because it gives a "no such device" error for eth0 (and there's no new eth interface). What should I do?
