[03:08] <jalvarez> how can i test a nat conection????
[03:08] <meoblast001> i need something that will do 3D and sound at the same time
[03:09] <Thrash--> how can i fix a ERROR:The control display is undefined
[03:09] <meoblast001> without locking up when you try to close it
[03:09] <deexannihilate>  inx-mdg: I generally only use it at Starbucks, so it is easy to plug in
[03:10] <inx-mdg> dsnyders: I wonder if the network cable has anything to do with the error - perhaps its a crossover cable?
[03:10] <Thrash--> how can i fix a ERROR:The control display is undefined
[03:10] <Thrash--> how can i fix a ERROR:The control display is undefined
[03:10] <JoeZiehmer> Think I'm going to start looking for free iMac's though.
[03:10] <dsnyders> inx-mdg, That's where I was about to go
[03:10] <JoeZiehmer> They are fun to work with, install Ubuntu 4.10, and they work just fine.
[03:10] <dsnyders> deexannihilate, Have you used this cable on another computer?
[03:10] <Hoss> can someone tell me the difference between apt-get update && upgrade and the actual "Update Manager".
[03:10] <Pici> !patience | Thrash--
[03:11] <eboyjr> Hello I enabled XDMCP but I can't find it from my other computer... How come?
[03:11] <agroker> I'd like to get the fglrx driver instead of default one (no way to play ppracer with it) and I try to follow instructions for Jaunty from here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto/ATI#Instructions%20for%20Ubuntu%209.04%20(Jaunty)  my problem is, though, I cannot see ''System->Hardware drivers" menu - where to get it from?
[03:11] <deexannihilate> dsnyders: Yes, but I can switch to another, try again with everything you said and see if it works
[03:11] <Thrash--> .meh hard to be patient when my main computer isnt working
[03:11] <dsnyders> deexannihilate, If the cable has worked in the past it's probably fine.
[03:12] <Joe_> anyone know if it's possible to share a webcam and mic through wine?
[03:12] <dsnyders> deexannihilate, what is the cable plugged into?
[03:12] <eboyjr> agroker: System > Administration > Hardware Drivers
[03:12] <deexannihilate> dsnyders: the wall
[03:12] <Thrash--> guess the only answer is to delete ubuntu and use windows ;x
[03:12] <agroker> eboyjr, it is not there :-(
[03:12] <inx-mdg> deexannihilate: oh.....
[03:12] <inx-mdg> deexannihilate: you said that before and I didn't catch it
[03:12] <Hoss> does anyone know how to run the Update Manager through the command line?  And why doesnt apt-get update/upgrade satisfy the needs of the "Update Manager".
[03:12] <spO> how do i change settings for something like x11vnc ?
[03:13] <dsnyders> deexannihilate, are you at a school or work or something?
[03:13] <eboyjr> agroker: Open a terminal and run /usr/bin/jockey-gtk
[03:13] <deexannihilate> dsnyders: no, our internet is included with our lease
[03:13] <fedel> hi everybody. I have a HP laptop model Dv6000. I'm having problem to make the internal mic work
[03:13] <deexannihilate> dsnyders: and the router is in the landlords place
[03:13] <agroker> eboyjr, no such file, I'll look now for it with synaptic
[03:14] <Macro_FTW> What kind of file system should I install Ubuntu on? Ext3? FAT32?
[03:14] <inx-mdg> deexannihilate: you have a network connection in the wall - looks like a phone jack?
[03:14] <dsnyders> deexannihilate, I see.
[03:14] <spO> in desktop i go to applicatiosn, then i add or remove, and i don't see things like ssh server or anything much server related
[03:14] <deexannihilate> dsnyder: if I was to try on the plug i'm using for my desktop. would i just have to restart or would i have to redo any commands?
[03:14] <deexannihilate> I'll switch both the cord and the jack and see if it works
[03:15] <deexannihilate> dsnyder: i'll switch both and see if it works?
[03:15] <deexannihilate> inx-mdg: yes
[03:15] <dsnyders> deexannihilate, Sorry, what are you switching?
[03:15] <losher> Macro_FTW: ext3. rock solid. well supported.
[03:15] <deexannihilate> dsnyders: if I switch the cable and the jack on the wall and try rebooting. will it make any difference?
[03:15] <agroker> eboyjr, thanks a lot, I must have removed jockey together with its nvidia dependencies another day using debfoster
[03:16] <Macro_FTW> Thanks losher. :)
[03:16] <dsnyders> deexannihilate, likely not.
[03:16] <eboyjr> agroker: No problem
[03:16] <deexannihilate> dsnyders: any idea what else the problem could be? it's only like a month old :(
[03:16] <inx-mdg> deexannihilate: if you take the cable you have on your desktop and plug it into your laptop then click the network icon - it should show you connected
[03:17] <deexannihilate> inx-mdg: i'll try it
[03:17] <deexannihilate> dsnyders: brb
[03:17] <inx-mdg> deexannihilate: leave it pluggedinto the wall, just unplug from the desktop  and plug into computer and come back here to let us know
[03:18] <inx-mdg> dsnyders: what do you think?
[03:18] <`Johnny> i need help please
[03:18] <Thrash--> join the crowd johnny
[03:18] <dsnyders> inx-mdg, I would try unplugging the cable from the notebook and plugging it into the desktop first.
[03:18] <`Johnny> i backuped my stuff with a backup.tar file then reinstalled ubuntu how do i unpack?
[03:19] <spO> how do i change settings for something like x11vnc ?
[03:19] <dsnyders> inx-mdg, we know the desktop is working, so that would tell us if the cable is okay.
[03:19] <spO> how do i change settings for thing slike that?
[03:19] <inx-mdg> dsnyders: that makes sense  :)
[03:19] <alex__> I am still running 32-bit Ubuntu... I was going to upgrade to 64-bit and wanted opinions on if I should go to 8.04 or 9.04?
[03:19] <`Johnny> how do i unpack a .tar file?
[03:19] <diego__> !upgrade
[03:19] <dsnyders> inx-mdg, Once we know the cable is okay, then we know the problem is definitely on the notebook.
[03:20] <spO> i hate ubuntu
[03:20] <rodimus> <3 ubuntu
[03:20] <spO> i hate life too
[03:20] <deexannihilate1>  inx-mdg: there was no change
[03:20] <rodimus> 8.10 > 9.04
[03:20] <deexannihilate1> dsnyders: i tested ifup eth0 and it lists the same
[03:20] <spO> whgy is 8.10 better?
[03:20] <rodimus> because its alot faster on my computer
[03:20] <Thrash--> meh try setting up a dual monitor SLI setup on ubuntu
[03:20] <rodimus> :)
[03:20] <Thrash--> fuck
[03:20] <spO> that doesn't make much sense rodium
[03:20] <Flannel> Thrash--: Please mind your language.
[03:21] <inx-mdg> dsnyders deexannihilate1 wow!
[03:21] <spO> rodium, what kind of comptuer do you have?
[03:21] <rodimus> spO, sorry
[03:21] <spO> ?
[03:21] <Thrash--> sorry im like a grumpy old man in a hospital
[03:21] <inx-mdg> deexannihilate1: do you have Ubuntu netbook remix installed?
[03:21] <spO> windows os'es are so much easier to configure than *nix based systems
[03:21] <deexannihilate1>  inx-mdg: yes
[03:21] <spO> waht tehf uck was i thinking
[03:22] <`Johnny> :-* How do i unpack a .tar file
[03:22] <Thrash--> agree spo
[03:22] <dsnyders> deexannihilate1, unplug the cable from the netbook and plug it into your desktop and see if your desktop works.
[03:22] <Thrash--> now ubuntu screwed up my windows loader and i cant get into ubuntu to add it to grub
[03:22] <deexannihilate1> dsnyders: ok
[03:22] <deexannihilate1>  inx-mdg: brb
[03:22] <dsnyders> deexannihilate1, inx-mdg /me needs coffee. back in a bit.
[03:22] <alex__> Thrash--: At least you can easily run fixmbr if all else fails ;)
[03:23] <spO> what happened?
[03:23] <Thrash--> i know
[03:23] <Thrash--> trust me
[03:23] <Thrash--> im getting close to it
[03:23] <inx-mdg> dsnyders: thanks for all the great help :)
[03:23] <Flannel> spO: You were removed due to your poor choice of language.
[03:23] <Pfc_onesht1kl11> hey how does one delete a large folder with stuff in it
[03:23] <spO> it is like i got kicked or something without getting kicked
[03:23] <dewman> its your language
[03:23] <Godzuki> need help getting jaunty to connect to internet using wicd
[03:23] <Pfc_onesht1kl11> rmdir wont work
[03:23] <spO> who kicked me?
[03:23] <Godzuki> It can see the network, and the password is right but it won't connect
[03:23] <deexannihilate> dsnyders: yes
[03:23] <spO> did i even get a kick message?   my irc program is set to keep my channel window open when i get kicked
[03:23] <spO> i don't dnerstand
[03:24] <Flannel> spO: It's not important.    Problem is definitely isolated to the netbook.
[03:25] <Pfc_onesht1kl11> anyone know a command for removing folders with files in them??
[03:25] <losher> slow learners...
[03:25] <dsnyders> deexannihilate, Progress!

[03:27] <losher> Pfc_onesht1kl11: yeah ok. Be careful with that rm -r command ok?
[03:27] <dewman> isnt there a -f option as well?
[03:28] <inx-mdg> crunchbang: how long you been using cruncbang?
[03:28] <alex__> Pfc_onesht1kl11: http://www.linuxcommand.org/ best place to learn the shell... period.

[03:30] <alex__> Pfc_onesht1kl11: Then sudo rm -r

[03:31] <losher> alex__: well I'm glad you added that warning...
[03:31] <curiouscat> is anyone here using ubuntuone?
[03:32] <Pfc_onesht1kl11> ok
[03:32] <deexannihilate> dsnyders: if I completely reinstall remix, will it correct the problem?
[03:32] <agroker> still trying to install the fglrx driver following https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto/ATI#Instructions%20for%20Ubuntu%209.04%20(Jaunty) directions, but when issuing insmod command I get "insmod: can't read '/lib/modules/2.6.28-14-generic/volatile/fglrx.ko': No such file or directory", what to do?
[03:32] <Pfc_onesht1kl11> it worked
[03:32] <GodfatherofEire> ok, somethin of a n00b question, how would I go about creating an .iso from a CD?
[03:32] <shaullx> how to get pygtk ?
[03:32] <dsnyders> deexannihilate, It may.  I have no way of knowing.
[03:32] <Pfc_onesht1kl11> was there a way to remove write protection without sudo command
[03:33] <deexannihilate> dsnyders: is there anything else you suggest?
[03:33] <Thrash--> indx-mdg, do you know how to fix that?
[03:33] <inx-mdg> deexannihilate: then you also have the wifi problem
[03:33] <shaullx> anyone?
[03:33] <Pfc_onesht1kl11> man its busy
[03:33] <Pfc_onesht1kl11> ill come back later
[03:33] <Pfc_onesht1kl11> thanks guys!
[03:33] <inx-mdg> Thrash--: sorry, I have no idea.. wish I did
[03:33] <ZeroKewl> Virtual	1792	1344 << is that the line in sudo gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf for the log in screen
[03:33] <alex__> Pfc_onesht1kl11: ubuntu is the most used Linux OS
[03:33] <dsnyders> inx-mdg, I think deexannihilate is trying to get connectivity so he can install a fix for his wireless
[03:33] <Pfc_onesht1kl11> is that good or bad
[03:33] <inx-mdg> Thrash--: I know how frusted you feel ...
[03:33] <Pfc_onesht1kl11> ?
[03:33] <deexannihilate> inx-mdg: at least the wifi connect before. it disconnected a lot, but at least it existed! perhaps, someone else will know how to fix it without deleting it completely?
[03:34] <alex__> Pfc_onesht1kl11: Means it's the easiest to get support for =P
[03:34] <deexannihilate> dsnyders: SHE!
[03:34] <Pfc_onesht1kl11> great!
[03:34] <Pfc_onesht1kl11> laterz
[03:34] <Thrash--> yeah and im gonna have to run a windows recovery disk to get my boot loader fixed now Z_Z
[03:34] <dsnyders> deexannihilate, She?
[03:34] <Thrash--> having an amazing computer can actually hurt you in situations like this
[03:34] <deexannihilate> dsnyders: yes, I am female.
[03:34] <ZeroKewl> so no one knows
[03:34] <ZeroKewl> :(
[03:34] <inx-mdg> deexannihilate: do you have any wireless phones close to your router?
[03:34] <losher> GodfatherofEire: what do you plan to do with the iso?
[03:35] <deexannihilate> inx-mdg: my friend has her iPhone
[03:35] <alex__> Thrash--: That's the one problem with ubuntu... hardware makers don't send in their stuff like they do to MS
[03:35] <inx-mdg> deexannihilate: is the wireless router in your place or your landlords?
[03:35] <GodfatherofEire> losher, mount it, extract the files and then create a customized live CD
[03:35] <Thrash--> alex: yeah, I figured I would run into major problems with my complicated setup
[03:35] <deexannihilate> inx-mdg: landlords
[03:35] <dsnyders> deexannihilate, Ah!  Right.  I apologize for my presumption
[03:35] <GodfatherofEire> wait....
[03:35] <curiouscat> Anyone here using UbuntuOne? Ran into a problem. Suddenly won't log-in to my account. Tried to remove the password from the keyring but it won't recognize that there's no more password. So it won't re-authenticate.
[03:35] <deexannihilate> dsnyders: it is ok. i'm use to it.
[03:36] <GodfatherofEire> I R stoopid, I can just take the files off the CD
[03:36] <inx-mdg> deexannihilate: you may physically be too far away and have the connection drop
[03:36] <alex__> Thrash--: I guess I just got lucky =P
[03:36] <Thrash--> I'll just reinstall ubuntu i guess lol it takes me 5 minutes max to install
[03:36] <losher> GodfatherofEire: yes you can...
[03:36] <deexannihilate> inx-mdg: it is directly above my head
[03:36] <deexannihilate> inx-mdg: i've been using it for almost a month straight.
[03:37] <inx-mdg> deexannihilate: did you just start having the connection dropping problem or has it done it all along?
[03:37] <deexannihilate> inx-mdg: i noticed the largest problem with the wireless when I am at starbucks. people around me have no problem getting it, but it takes me forever to connect to it
[03:37] <goo_> anyone know why after installing nvidia drivers my conky setup gets completely messed up?  its stuck on the bottom of the screen now, i had it perfect :(
[03:37] <_adam__> ##testinghere
[03:38] <Thrash--> get over it goo i installed drivers and my ubuntu died
[03:38] <goo_> heh
[03:38] <Godzuki> Anyone know about Wicd?
[03:38] <GodfatherofEire> losher, actually hold up, I need to get it onto a squashfs file
[03:39] <inx-mdg> Godzuki: I used wicd once
[03:39] <dsnyders> deexannihilate, type in lspci|grep -i eth
[03:39] <Godzuki> inx-mdg: as in only once?
[03:39] <inx-mdg> Godzuki: no - as in for a short while
[03:39] <losher> GodfatherofEire: not sure I can help you with that. There are howtos for remastering ubuntu cds tho'...
[03:39] <deexannihilate> inx-mdg: i've been having the at&t wifi (starbucks) since i got it
[03:40] <GodfatherofEire> losher, thats why i was tryin to figure out how to get it to the .iso image cause the instructions call for that
[03:40] <Flannel> GodfatherofEire: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/LiveCDCustomization
[03:40] <inx-mdg> deexannihilate: so wifi at starbucks, but not at home?
[03:40] <Thrash--> alex: you think updating ubuntu before restarting for nvidia drivers caused it?
[03:40] <Godzuki> inx-mdg: I can't seem to get it to connect to a WEP network. All the guides online pretty much consist of 'switch to wpa' which I cant.
[03:40] <GodfatherofEire> Flannel, I know, thats what I'm usin
[03:40] <inx-mdg> Godzuki: what's been happneing ?
[03:40] <agroker> how can I check whether I run 32 or 64 bit installation?
[03:40] <losher> GodfatherofEire: we can make an iso if you want....
[03:40] <alex__> Thrash--: I wasn't paying attention so IDK what your problem even was =P
[03:41] <inx-mdg> Godzuki: I recall something about adding the character "x" to the end of he password when you put it in - sounds strange I know....
[03:41] <Thrash--> alex: it couldnt find my display after i restarted
[03:41] <GodfatherofEire> losher, I already have the CD in the drive and dl'd on the other comp
[03:41] <GodfatherofEire> if only I could find my 16gig USB drive
[03:41] <Godzuki> inx-mdg: i click connect, it says something along the lines of laying interface, then loses it.
[03:41] <Thrash--> alex: i installed nvidia drivers and then did the ubuntu update thing then restarted
[03:41] <GodfatherofEire> which i probably left at the office
[03:41] <GodfatherofEire> again
[03:42] <losher> GodfatherofEire: well, let me know when you have an actual question :-)
[03:42] <Godzuki> inx-mdg: it will also lose the networks and never pick them back up until I reset.
[03:42] <b0nn> I'm having trouble with a wifi interface. For reasons unknown, it won't come up
[03:42] <b0nn> Any ideas how to troubleshoot it?
[03:42] <inx-mdg> Godzuki: what network card?
[03:42] <GodfatherofEire> losher, so do you know of a way to just to make the .iso file from the actual CD?
[03:42] <losher> agroker: uname -a
[03:42] <deexannihilate> inx-mdg; It happens at home, but not as frequently
[03:42] <alex__> agroker: uname -a
[03:42] <inx-mdg> deexannihilate: hmm.....
[03:42] <Godzuki> inx-mdg: wg111t usb. All drivers installed with ndiswrapper.
[03:43] <deexannihilate>  inx-mdg: I show a stronger connection at starbucks, but it is harder to keep the signal. It just runs really slow and low at home
[03:43] <losher> GodfatherofEire: yes, wait a mo while I peek in my shell script

[03:43] <frankpanda><PHONE_NUMBER>233211123334444444443321
[03:43] <GodfatherofEire> no prob
[03:43] <alex__> Thrash--: I know it's a stupid question... but did you get the right drivers?
[03:43] <inx-mdg> Godzuki: I wonder if that adapter supports wpa?
[03:43] <GodfatherofEire> i think there was a way to do it from the terminal, but I cant remember for sure
[03:43] <agroker> uname -a says only i686 - does that mean 32 or 64 bit?
[03:44] <inx-mdg> deexannihilate: maybe directly under connection is the problem at home...
[03:44] <Godzuki> inx-mdg: im not sure. the router is set to wep as one of the other desktops is legacy
[03:44] <alex__> agroker: That is 32 bit
[03:44] <rex_> HEY
[03:44] <agroker> aleX-xx, thanks
[03:44] <rex_> any one up for webcam chat?
[03:45] <losher> GodfatherofEire: first, run isoinfo -d -i /dev/cdrom and note down the number where it says 'volume size is: nnnnnnn'
[03:45] <Godzuki> inx-mdg: okay, the site says it will support it
[03:45] <Thrash--> yes im pretty sure
[03:45] <Thrash--> there wasn't an option between x86 and x64 tho
[03:45] <inx-mdg> Godzuki: reports I'm reading say problem with WEP setup....
[03:46] <b0nn> grr, it was dhclient being a pITA
[03:46] <b0nn> thanks.. sort of
[03:46] <deexannihilate> inx-mdg: it is definitely a possibility. I just figured since it was a known problem, the driver was possibly the problem, so i tried to fix it. and i ended up breaking it!
[03:46] <inx-mdg> Godzuki: you are using 9.04?
[03:46] <slopslaptop> hey all
[03:46] <Godzuki> inx-mdg: the newest one is 9.04 right? then yes.
[03:46] <inx-mdg> deexannihilate: I've done that before myself...
[03:46] <alex__> Thrash--: http://www.nvidia.com/Download/index.aspx?lang=en-us it has "Linux 32-bit" and "Linux 64-bit"
[03:46] <Thrash--> I know
[03:46] <slopslaptop> is there an easy way of going from 32 bit to 64 bit with out loosing my seetings:
[03:46] <losher> GodfatherofEire: then run dd if=/dev/cdrom bs=2048 count=<nnnnnnn> conv=notrunc > mycd.iso
[03:46] <Thrash--> i was using the ubuntu thing
[03:47] <Thrash--> probably not the best thing to do :X
[03:47] <deexannihilate> dsnyders: sorry! i never say your message
[03:47] <Thrash--> doesnt matter now alex already done reinstalling lol
[03:47] <dsnyders> deexannihilate, No problem.  Have you ever let the battery run down?
[03:48] <deexannihilate> dsnyders: yes, it does sometimes
[03:49] <dsnyders> deexannihilate, http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/linux-newbie-8/linpus-linux-lite-no-network-manager-or-internet-acer-aspire-one-663422/
[03:49] <dsnyders> deexannihilate, some people have had problems with the acer aspire one if the battery drains before shutting down.
[03:50] <deexannihilate> dsnyders: it lists ethernet controller: atheros communications AR 242x 802.11abg wireless pci express (rev 01) and enthernet controller: attansic technolody corp. fevice 1062 (rev co)
[03:50] <deexannihilate> dsnyders: (rev c0)
[03:50] <losher> GodfatherofEire: did you get what you need?
[03:50] <dsnyders> deexannihilate,  the apparent solution is to delete ~/.gconf/system/networking directory
[03:51] <GodfatherofEire> losher, sorry, had to go downstairs for a sec
[03:51] <inx-mdg> Godzuki: I'm not seeing any solutions yet...
[03:51] <agent0range> why is there no colors in irssi?
[03:51] <Godzuki> inx-mdg: I can only connect to unencrypted networks.
[03:52] <deexannihilate> dsnyders: how do I go about doing it?
[03:52] <agent0range> well i guess its irssi under screen
[03:52] <inx-mdg> Godzuki: yikes!
[03:52] <deexannihilate> dsnyders: I'm reading through the thread
[03:52] <dsnyders> deexannihilate, Okay, read through it first, and see if it sounds like your symptoms
[03:53] <Godzuki> inx-mdg: and i was going to try using wireshark to see what was happening, and now it wont install
[03:53] <Thrash--> lol
[03:53] <inx-mdg> dsnyders: post #11
[03:53] <glitchd>
[03:53] <Thrash--> how do you install these drivers from the site alex
[03:53] <Thrash--> im a total linux noo
[03:53] <Thrash--> b
[03:53] <dsnyders> inx-mdg, Yes.  But I just want to make sure we're implementing the right solution.
[03:54] <glitchd> im having a problem shutting down my laptop. acer aspire with ubuntu 9.04/windows 7
[03:55] <deexannihilate> dsnyders: the only thing I can say is it didn't start acting up after shut down
[03:55] <grendal_prime> ok i got a really expensive video card on this machine, dbi and 3 monitors...but im having a really hard time getting anything but two screens that are mirrored.  Anyone out there good with this sort of stuff cause i suck... its an ati radeon card i believe
[03:55] <losher> GodfatherofEire: do you have what you need?
[03:56] <grendal_prime> first off how do i find out for sure what the card is?
[03:56] <inx-mdg> Godzuki: sorry, not seeing a solution...
[03:56] <deexannihilate> dsnyders: I followed this post:http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=902860&highlight=Atheros+Communications+Inc.+AR242x+802.11abg (the one listed under reasoner) to try and fix my wifi going in and out and then had the problem
[03:56] <GodfatherofEire> once it finishes, i should
[03:57] <o2c3n> so i keep gettin these grub error's 21 and 17 anyone got any leads for me? lol
[03:57] <deexannihilate> dsnyders: I could not get the link to load even after adding the IP.
[03:57] <Godzuki> inx-mdg: well, guess I'll just have to win 7 then.
[03:57] <inx-mdg> Godzuki: ewww - sorry
[03:58] <Godzuki> inx-mdg: I mean I can't really use it if I can't connect to the network and internet.
[03:58] <inx-mdg> deexannihilate: you running 8.04?
[03:58] <mankeletor> hi all, can listen play mp3 files?
[03:58] <inx-mdg> Godzuki: true... but win 7....:/
[03:59] <losher> !mp3 | mankeletor
[03:59] <supreme> hi
[03:59] <Godzuki> inx-mdg: 7 or vista. So my choices are 7 or my testicles in a cheese grater.
[03:59] <inx-mdg> Godzuki: tough choice....
[03:59] <alex__> Godzuki: The second one!!
[04:00] <mankeletor> losher, keewl =)
[04:00] <mankeletor> thx
[04:00] <Godzuki> inx-mdg: I'll probably just find a supported network card in a couple weeks, so its only temporary
[04:00] <inx-mdg> Godzuki: if you are going USB - try Belkin F5D7050
[04:01] <GodfatherofEire> losher, thanks
[04:01] <Godzuki> inx-mdg: Probably just going to get a NIC that has wifi in it. any you know of that are supported out of the box?
[04:01] <mechtech> ok...Ubuntu officially KICKS @$$!
[04:01] <Thrash--> wish me luck alex
[04:01] <losher> GodfatherofEire: glad it worked. Your problems are just beginning...:-)
[04:01] <Thrash--> just installed drivers
[04:01] <Thrash--> restarting
[04:01] <inx-mdg> Godzuki: you Belkin F5d7010 version .....
[04:01] <GodfatherofEire> losher hahahaha
[04:01] <inx-mdg> version 6 for sure
[04:01] <GodfatherofEire> trust me, its nothin compared to what i was gonna do
[04:02] <GodfatherofEire> I was gonna do an LFS with the Linux Unified Kernel, and make THAT a live distro
[04:02] <mechtech> I have a bunch of mp3s in a folder...no music player of any kind open...mouse hovered over a file by accident...the OS started playing the file without opening any music player!
[04:02] <GodfatherofEire> Gave it some thought, and suffice it to say, reconsidered
[04:02] <Thrash--> Z_Z
[04:03] <Thrash--> awesome!
[04:03] <inx-mdg> Godzuki: that's a PCMCIA - is that what you meant?
[04:03] <Thrash--> it goes to the nonGUI bootup again
[04:03] <alex__> mechtech: The music player is prob in your notification area
[04:03] <losher> GodfatherofEire: people do it, (though I'm far too lazy myself)...
[04:03] <dsnyders> deexannihilate, Okay. let's try something.
[04:03] <inx-mdg> deexannihilate: still with us?
[04:03] <Thrash--> so much for all you need to do is restart ubuntu and your drivers will work
[04:03] <mechtech> alex_: I don't have one open!
[04:03] <deexannihilate> dsnyders: yes
[04:03] <Godzuki> inx-mdg: desktop card actually.
[04:03] <deexannihilate> inx-mdg: yes
[04:03] <inx-mdg> Godzuki: oh.... not sure then.
[04:04] <dsnyders> deexannihilate, you're at the root prompt?
[04:04] <losher> mechtech: some nautilus preview nonsense I expect...
[04:04] <GodfatherofEire> I know they do, but not LFS+LUK+LiveCD+Security auditing and system testing tools for all the major OSs out there
[04:04] <Godzuki> inx-mdg: yeah, I'll find one though.
[04:04] <deexannihilate> i just exited it but i'll go back
[04:04] <deexannihilate> dsnyders:  ok
[04:04] <GodfatherofEire> I.e. mac, windows, linux, and solaris
[04:04] <mechtech> losher: not nonsense from my point of view
[04:04] <dsnyders> deexannihilate, No, I need you at the normal prompt
[04:04] <mechtech> losher: I'm lovin' it
[04:04] <deexannihilate> dsnyders:  ok.
[04:04] <deexannihilate> dsnyders:  done
[04:04] <dsnyders> deexannihilate, Okay, type in cd
[04:04] <losher> GodfatherofEire: for work, presumably...
[04:05] <dsnyders> deexannihilate, You should now be at your home directory.
[04:05] <GodfatherofEire> losher, well, yeah, thats what I was gonna use it for, but still, thatd be a pain in any event
[04:05] <deexannihilate> it says deexannihilate@deexannihilate-laptop:~$
[04:05] <dsnyders> deexannihilate, good.  Type in rm -rf ~/.gconf/system/networking
[04:06] <inx-mdg> deexannihilate dsnyders : I was looking at an acer aspir   - eager to see how this turns out
[04:06] <inx-mdg> aspir/aspire
[04:07] <deexannihilate> dsnyders:  ok
[04:07] <Mickael> HEY!
[04:07] <deexannihilate> inx-mdg: outside of this little problem.. it works wonderfully
[04:07] <Mickael> I GOT IT WORKING
[04:08] <dsnyders> deexannihilate, Okay, now try rebooting the netbook.
[04:08] <coordinador> hey
[04:08] <Mickael> For problems with WPN111, use the oldest driver netgear has. It will work!
[04:08] <coordinador> i have a really weird problem
[04:08] <deexannihilate> dsnyders:  brb
[04:08] <inx-mdg> deexannihilate: I would definitely get the 6 cell battery though
[04:08] <coordinador> suddenly the keyboard layout and theme set with default configuration, and i cannot change back
[04:08] <coordinador> :S
[04:08] <duncanmaccleod> anyone get itshidden vpn working via guest vbox?
[04:09] <inx-mdg> dsnyders: what key phrase did you search for to find this solution?
[04:09] <edbian> OT:  Where is there a good arch linux support channel?  (on what server) ??
[04:10] <dsnyders> inx-mdg, acer asire one linux ethernet  I think
[04:10] <orlok> Does anybody here use an Arduino with ubuntu? I am experiencing USB lockups
[04:10] <deexannihilate1> dsnyders:  ok
[04:11] <dsnyders> deexannihilate, fire up a terminal
[04:11] <inx-mdg> dsnyders: we lost her...
[04:11] <deexannihilate1> dsnyders:  ok
[04:12] <deexannihilate1> inx-mdg: i'm back
[04:12] <dsnyders> deexannihilate1, sudo -i and then ifconfig
[04:12] <deexannihilate1> dsnyders: :(
[04:13] <dsnyders> deexannihilate1, no joy?
[04:13] <deexannihilate1> dsnyders: it is the same
[04:13] <inx-mdg> deexannihilate1: wifi still works?
[04:14] <deexannihilate1> inx-mdg: nope
[04:14] <Gadu> how can I find what permission mask a file has so I may set another file to the same permissions?
[04:14] <Gadu> if I worded that properly
[04:15] <powertool08> edbian: #archlinux
[04:15] <dsnyders> deexannihilate1, lspci|grep -i eth  again
[04:15] <deexannihilate1> inx-mdg: before, it gave an option to enable/disable wireless, but it doesn't exist anymore
[04:15] <deexannihilate1> dsnyders: ok
[04:15] <edbian> Gadu: ls -l lists the files inside the working directory and their permissions.  They are a little difficult to read though if you don't know how!
[04:15] <Gadu> edbian: thanks
[04:16] <deexannihilate1> dsnyders:  under root?
[04:16] <deexannihilate1> dsnyders: it lists the same two ethernet controller
[04:16] <edbian> Gadu: NP!  Let me know if you want more help :)
[04:16] <deexannihilate1> s
[04:16] <dsnyders> deexannihilate1, yes.
[04:16] <tonsofpcs> hmm.... what is the easiest way to modify firewall rules on ubuntu the jaunty jackalope netbook remix?
[04:17] <Thrash--> god
[04:17] <Thrash--> think its time to run windows recovery disc and give up on linux
[04:17] <Jeruvy> !ufw | tonsofpcs
[04:17] <DasEi> tonsofpcs: ufw, or firestarter
[04:17] <Gadu> edbian: ok I understand the listed owner and read write etc listed but I don't know the number associated with that so I can chmod another to the same thing
[04:17] <tonsofpcs> thanks Jeruvy
[04:18] <orlok> Hmm. kernel bug reports in ubuntu should go to ubuntu?
[04:18] <tonsofpcs> no gui tool preinstalled with default netbook remix then?
[04:18] <deexannihilate1> dsnyders:  don't know if you saw the messages I typed before: it lists the same two ethernet controllers
[04:18] <xFlux> Gadu:  Just remember this.  Read = 4  Write = 2  Execute = 1
[04:18] <Thrash--> so the nvidia drivers that linux tells me to install crash my computer and dont allow X to run?
[04:18] <Thrash--> doesnt make much sense to me
[04:18] <Jeruvy> orluk: sure it's specific to ubuntu (unless your using a custom kernel)
[04:18] <edbian> Gadu: The chown command changes the owner or group
[04:18] <xFlux> Gadu:  If you add Read and Write, you get 6
[04:19] <dsnyders> deexannihilate1, They seem to be scrolled off my history
[04:19] <edbian> Gadu: Look at "man chown" :)
[04:19] <Gadu> I see
[04:19] <xFlux> Gadu:  He said chmod, not chown
[04:19] <orlok> Jeruvy: was too drunk last night to drag the hardware over to a different linux system but i will test when i get home
[04:19] <Jeruvy> Thrash--: are you just banging your head through this, or are you following a howto or the documentation page?
[04:19] <jfincher__> so I can see the "mobile broadband" connection in my "network connections" but I can't see any way to connect to it.  How do I connect to it?
[04:19] <deexannihilate1> dsnyders:  no problem: Theros AR 242x 802.11abg and Attansic Device 1062
[04:19] <Gadu> a long story short, I have files in my user folder that aren't owned by my user and I want to change all of those files
[04:19] <Jeruvy> orlok: hehe been there :)
[04:20] <orlok> Jeruvy: ftdi USB-> serial device locks up, and i need to reboot to be able to access any USB serial devices after that
[04:20] <Thrash--> ive googled the entire interwebs
[04:20] <Gadu> would I be able to chown everything in my user folder at once? XD
[04:20] <Thrash--> and been in chat for 4 hours
[04:20] <Thrash--> on my third ubuntu install
[04:20] <edbian> Gadu: You should be the owner of everything in the home folder
[04:20] <dsnyders> deexannihilate1, type in dmesg|grep -i eth
[04:20] <edbian> Gadu: I think you can "chown you /home/<you> -r"
[04:20] <edbian> Gadu: Or something like that (-r for recursive)
[04:20] <deexannihilate1> dsnyders:  ok
[04:20] <Gadu> I'll try that
[04:21] <Thrash--> i go to hardware drivers
[04:21] <Thrash--> let it download and install nvidia 180
[04:21] <inx-mdg> Thrash--: I've spent twice that trying to fix windows XP just last weekend
[04:21] <CoJaBo-Aztec> What do nI need to install to get the Sun Java plugin in Firefox?
[04:21] <Thrash--> lulwhat
[04:21] <test34> chown -R maybe
[04:21] <Thrash--> my windows vista is flawless :X
[04:21] <Flannel> edbian, Gadu: chown youruser:youruser -R /home/youruser
[04:21] <edbian> Gadu: "sudo chown -R <you> /home/<you>
[04:21] <Thrash--> it could be my second graphics card
[04:21] <test34> edbian: why sudo
[04:21] <edbian> Gadu: I think flannel is right ;)
[04:21] <Thrash--> but im not going to take hardware out just for ubuntu
[04:21] <Gadu> I'll go with that then
[04:22] <Ffthrash> 3
[04:22] <test34> edbian: files owned by root?
[04:22] <inx-mdg> Thrash--: if Vista is flawless, who did you end up with Ubuntu?
[04:22] <Flannel> edbian: manpage says -R you:you, but I swear I've done the other before without it complaining
[04:22] <Ffthrash> list!
[04:22] <Thrash--> its on another partition
[04:22] <deexannihilate1> dsnyders:  1. ACPI Error 1: Making method _OSC as serialized bc of AE_already exists error 3
[04:22] <Jeruvy> orlok: I'd be curious about that bug, ftdi gives me issues windows, ubuntu...you name it.
[04:22] <Thrash--> screwing around
[04:22] <Ffthrash> !list
[04:22] <edbian> test34: I didn't really think about it.  Yeah sudo is only required if the files are owned by someone else
[04:22] <Thrash--> im gonna have to overwrite the grub loader to make windows work tho
[04:23] <deexannihilate1> dsnyders: 3. Drover 'sd' needs updating - please use bus-type methods

[04:23] <rodimus_> is anyone here currently using mayanna?
[04:23] <inx-mdg> Thrash--: did vista do what you were trying to do in linux?
[04:24] <Gadu> Flannel, edbian: tyvm for the help, that worked perfectly
[04:24] <Thrash--> installing ubuntu to screw around
[04:25] <deexannihilate1> dsnyders:  oh and 3. driver 'sr' needs updating
[04:25] <dsnyders> deexannihilate1, cd /var/log

[04:26] <Thrash--> screw around as in learn /play with it
[04:26] <deexannihilate1> dsnyders:  ok
[04:27] <dsnyders> deexannihilate1, okay, type in less messages
[04:27] <inx-mdg> Thrash--: as in come here and talk trash about linux
[04:27] <rww> inx-mdg: he isn't. please stop being officious :(
[04:27] <deexannihilate1> dsnyders:  does that mean don't type as much to you or physically type in "less messages"?
[04:28] <navatwo> SEND Hi
[04:28] <dsnyders> deexannihilate1, sorry, less is a command for viewing long files, and messages is the file to type.
[04:28] <deexannihilate1> dsnyders:  ok done.
[04:29] <Thrash--> nothing to do with linux anyways
[04:29] <deexannihilate1> dsnyders:  what do you want me to tell you on it
[04:29] <Thrash--> i get the same attitude with windows when i cant boot
[04:29] <jimisrvrox> hey guys dont mean to be rude but Ive been going through dependency hell trying to install VLC and now im trying to just figure out what to do about gstreamer for the retarded totem player...tried to get keryx to work...that didnt come out like I wanted...id really appreciate some help here...originally was wanting to install VLC on a box w/o net...im beginning to hate linux...depeendency...
[04:29] <jimisrvrox> ...hell...grrrr
[04:29] <grendal_prime> man i get really shitty performance from this thing...its got to be that damn ati card.
[04:30] <Ziber> I'm trying to install ubuntu 8.10 from a CD, and when I go to partition it through the install, I dont see the windows partition.
[04:30] <dsnyders> deexannihilate1, okay you should see a lot of system messages that happened when you booted.
[04:30] <inx-mdg> Thrash- rww - I'm just saying we are all here to learn and to help, i.e. volunteer help
[04:30] <test34> I gave up on ati years ago
[04:31] <deexannihilate1> dsnyders: What should I look for?
[04:31] <argans> hello...is anyone here who answer of some question about "Rent a Coder" site?
[04:31] <inx-mdg> dsnyders: thanks for all the help
[04:31] <rww> inx-mdg: I know. It's probably best if you assume good faith, and don't tell people off for saying they're "screwing around" with Ubuntu, though :)
[04:31] <inx-mdg> deexannihilate1: you are in good hands
[04:31] <Ziber> Why wouldnt my windows partition show up when I go to install ubuntu?
[04:31] <Flannel> jimisrvrox: I you use the versions in the repositories, you shouldn't have any dependency problems.  If you're using packages from random other places, then that's different.
[04:31] <rww> argans: try #ubuntu-offtopic
[04:31] <mel> hi I want to install ubuntu on another partition but my computer isn't reading/writing cds properly, but dvds work ok.  Is there a way to burn the cd iso onto a dvd or a dvd version I could use?
[04:31] <grendal_prime> whats the best way to get the video card stats?
[04:31] <dsnyders> deexannihilate1, any error messages?  Anything that looks like ethernet startup messages
[04:31] <deexannihilate1> inx-mdg: thanks for your help as well!
[04:31] <inx-mdg> rww: not the screwing around part - we are all tinkering
[04:32] <genie_vn> I downloaded an icon pack for ubuntu 9.04, how to install it?
[04:32] <inx-mdg> deexannihilate1: your welcome - wish I could have done more
[04:32] <dsnyders> inx-mdg, I didn't think about checking the logs until a few minutes ago.
[04:32] <Ziber> Anyone?
[04:32] <dsnyders> inx-mdg, I guess I'll have to turn in my linux+ cert.
[04:32] <mataks_> is virtual box for free?
[04:32] <rww> mataks_: yes
[04:32]  * orlok wonders if Sorbs is dead yet
[04:32] <inx-mdg> dsnyders: I didn't know to check the logs...
[04:32] <deexannihilate1> dsnyders:  ath5k phy0: unsupported jumbo
[04:32] <kdc1956> does your cd/dvd burner work
[04:32] <duncanmaccleod> who wants to live forever?
[04:33] <Jeruvy> mel: you could try, but I've heard of ppl having issues with it working that way.  You may be better to try using a usb to install from.
[04:33] <deexannihilate1> dsnyders:  ACPI error psparse - 0524
[04:33] <orlok> duncanmaccleod: duncan sucked. conner is the only highlander
[04:33] <deexannihilate1> dsnyders: would it specifically say ethernet?
[04:33] <inx-mdg> night all o/
[04:33] <dsnyders> deexannihilate1, not necessarily
[04:33] <orlok> duncanmaccleod: THERE SHOULD HAVE BEEN ONLY ONE! (movie, that is)
[04:33] <Flannel> orlok, duncanmaccleod: please take offtopic chatter elsewhere, thanks.
[04:33] <duncanmaccleod> i agree but it was taken
[04:33] <genie_vn> hi, I downloaded an icon pack for ubuntu 9.04, but how to install it?
[04:33] <mel> Jeruvy, ok thanks I will learn how to install from usb
[04:33] <deexannihilate1> dsnyders: is there anyway to save it, so you can take a look?
[04:34] <duncanmaccleod> it appears most is off topic
[04:34] <orlok> My ubuntu systems USB ports all seem to lock up requiring a reboot. has anybody else seen this?
[04:34] <Jeruvy> mel: good luck
[04:34] <mel> Jeruvy, thanks heh I will need it, been a while since I've done anything linuxish =)
[04:34] <test34> orlok: did it always do that?
[04:34] <wade> Hi room
[04:35] <mataks_> anyone here have tried running windowsOS on virtualbox?
[04:35] <Jeruvy> !install | mel
[04:35] <dsnyders> deexannihilate1, Sure, just upload the file to pastebin... once you get the networking working :-)
[04:35] <edbian> mataks_: I have.  A while ago.
[04:35] <deexannihilate1> dsnyders: can i transfer it to a memory stick and put it up on this computer?
[04:36] <dsnyders> deexannihilate1, ... or you could copy /var/log/messages onto a usb, and use your desktop to copy it to pastebin
[04:36] <test34> mataks_: do you also have a real question ?
[04:36] <markl_> OK FWIW - ubuntu LTS 8.04 supports > 2T partitions just fine
[04:36] <dsnyders> deexannihilate1, you beat me to it.
[04:36] <markl_> no need to recompile kernel
[04:36] <mataks_> edbian,  if you install a windowsOS on virtual box do you still have to install the drivers? like video card driver sound and the mainboard
[04:36] <Ziber> Why wouldnt my windows partition show up during installation?
[04:36] <edbian> mataks_: I do remember one quarky thing though.  I had to go to Settings -> General -> Advanced -> Extended Features and turn them all on (accept the VT-x/AMD-V one I think)
[04:36] <deexannihilate1> dsnyders:  :) so should i exit and type the copy command?
[04:37] <Ziber> Anyone?
[04:37] <dsnyders> deexannihilate1, yes, type in q to exit less
[04:37] <FFighter> if I have an Intel Core 2 Duo, but I'm running a 64bit distro
[04:37] <edbian> mataks_: If you tell virtual box that you're running windows <whatever> it will choose hardware for the virtual machine that solves all of the driver issues.
[04:37] <FFighter> should I get Swiftfox for AMD64 or Prescot??
[04:37] <ToyImp> Just curious. Anyone remember the CPU speed of a home PC back in 2000 or 2001?
[04:37] <mataks_> edbian,  so it uses the driver on your main OS to the virtual box?
[04:37] <Flannel> ToyImp: Try #ubuntu-offtopic instead, thanks.
[04:37] <DasEi> Ziber: chosen manual partitoning ?
[04:38] <orlok> ToyImp: i had a 700-1Ghz or so Athlon/K7 iirc
[04:38] <deexannihilate1> it says command not found
[04:38] <ToyImp> orlok, thanks :)
[04:38] <Ziber> DasEi: tbh, i've never done this before. one i hit next after that, it'll let me configure it out i want to?
[04:38] <ToyImp> Flannel, thanks for the channel info as well.
[04:38] <edbian> mataks_: It creates a virtual computer.  Said computer is made up of virtual hardware.  Virtualbox will purposefully choose only hardware that works with 0 configuration for whatever operating system you choose.
[04:38] <dsnyders> deexannihilate1, were you already out of less?
[04:38] <deexannihilate1> dsnyders:  yes :(
[04:39] <edbian> mataks_: I have a Broadcom Wireless card and a wired nic on my host system.  On my virtual system all I have is a single works out of the box generic network card (it's virtual) get it?
[04:39] <DasEi> Ziber : the installer asks you , what have you selected ?
[04:39] <dsnyders> deexannihilate1, If you could pastebin the /var/log/dmesg file as well, please
[04:40] <FFighter> If i have a Core2Duo and a 64bit distro, should I get Swiftfox for AMD64 or Prescot??
[04:40] <deexannihilate1> dsnyders:  how do i get the command to work?
[04:41] <FFighter> anyone?
[04:41] <dsnyders> deexannihilate1, sorry, by "pastebin" I meant "copy the file to a memory stick, take it to your desktop, and upload them to the pastebin website"
[04:41] <wade> Ziber: you can add your windows install to grub manually let me know if you want the info.
[04:41] <mataks_> edbian, no. my questions is.. do you still need to install drivers on installed Windows in virtualbox?
[04:42] <deexannihilate1> dsnyders:  i tried the command and it didn't work.
[04:42] <deexannihilate1> dsnyders:  possibly because i am at home
[04:42] <dsnyders> deexannihilate1, what command?
[04:42] <edbian> mataks_: If you tell virtual box what OS you're using you will need to install 0 drivers
[04:42] <FFighter> If i have a Core2Duo and a 64bit distro, should I get Swiftfox for AMD64 or Prescot??
[04:42] <deexannihilate1> dsnyders:  i though i was supposed to type copy /car/log/messages
[04:42] <deexannihilate1> dsnyders: *var
[04:43] <wade> FFighter: for security reasons I would stick with Firefox.
[04:43] <dsnyders> deexannihilate1, Sorry,   cp is the copy command in linux
[04:44] <deexannihilate1> dsnyders:  it says missing destination file operand after
[04:44] <wade> but if you must then use the prescott
[04:44] <deexannihilate1> dsnyders: how should i type it in?
[04:45] <cdenny> anyone have experience with running windows 7 in ubuntu (virtually), or virtualization within ubuntu period?
[04:45] <dsnyders> deexannihilate1, you can copy the file to the memory stick using the gui if you wish
[04:45] <coordinador> sombody?
[04:46] <dsnyders> deexannihilate1, otherwise the command is cp source destination
[04:46] <dsnyders> deexannihilate1, so cp /var/log/messages /path/to/memory/stick
[04:47] <Sassy1> dsnyders: add a colon ":" before the command shown. It makes it more clear for the user.
[04:47] <FFighter> wade, firefox is so damn resource-hogging
[04:47] <dsnyders> deexannihilate1, whatever that path to memory stick may be
[04:47] <dsnyders> Sassy1, good point.
[04:47] <Sassy1> thanks sir
[04:48] <dsnyders> !pastebin
[04:48] <wade> Swiftfox is Firefox but the "latest greatest" cutting edge that is still in testing.
[04:48] <Sassy1> No, thats the Powerfox :=)
[04:48] <wade> and possibly full of security issues.
[04:49] <BellinXFelon> can someone help me i have a device on /dev/sdb1, and i cant write to it
[04:49] <Sassy1> First time i feel happy this day, i hope "stew" wont be rotten today as well.
[04:50] <gabisar> BellinXFelon i can try help you
[04:50] <BellinXFelon> gabisar
[04:50] <BellinXFelon> gabisar : it mounts and everything i just cannot write to it
[04:50] <wade> bellinxfelon: try accessing it using alt+f2 "gksu nautilus"
[04:50] <Sassy1> remount
[04:50] <deexannihilate1> dsnyders: sorry for not knowing how to get there. but how do i find the path
[04:51] <gabisar> when you use the mount command you can use mount -t filesystem -o uid=youruidhere /dev/sdb1 /media/sdb1
[04:51] <gabisar> BellinXFelon when you use the mount command you can use mount -t filesystem -o uid=youruidhere /dev/sdb1 /media/sdb1
[04:51] <test34> deexannihilate1:, look in /media
[04:51] <gabisar> BellinXFelon when you use the mount command you can use mount -t filesystem -o uid=youruidhere,rw /dev/sdb1 /media/sdb1
[04:52] <deexannihilate1> test34: thank you!
[04:52] <ricree> I tried installing the NVidia linux drivers from the nvidia site, and it wound up screwing with my setup somehow so that I can only run in low graphics mode.  I tried switching the xorg.conf to a backup with no luck, and I also tried switching back to the ubuntu restricted drivers version.  Any suggestions how to get things back how they were prior to that update?
[04:53] <DasEi> !sudo | BellinXFelon
[04:53] <wade> uninstall all nvidia drivers maybe
[04:53] <Sassy1> mount -o remount -o uid=YourUIDhere,rw /dev/xdisk /mountpoint ... but itd still be a root mount or whatever User mounted it
[04:54] <deexannihilate1> dsnyders: how do I upload it to you
[04:54] <dsnyders> !pastebin | deexannihilate1
[04:54] <Sassy1> Ah, remount as user... goodie
[04:54] <ricree> wade: how do I go about doing that?
[04:55] <wade> use synaptic and search for nvidia
[04:55] <Sassy1> Ive chugged down 3 litres of red wine but im clearly rockin! :=)
[04:55] <wade> are you familiar with synaptic yet?
[04:55] <Sassy1> "Cave9"
[04:56] <mankeletor> ricree, sudo apt-get install nvidia-glx-180
[04:57] <Sassy1> What we need is something like Cave9 but as a rewamped Decent/X-thing racer
[04:59] <dsnyders> deexannihilate1, How's it coming?
[04:59] <deexannihilate1> dsnyders: i think i did it

[05:09] <dsnyders> deexannihilate1, you weren't able to copy /var/log/messages to your memory stick, or you weren't able to copy from the memory stick to pastebin?
[05:09] <sebsebseb> !ops |   Sassy1  and I think  Geoffrey2  for  channal promotion as well
[05:09] <ag3ntugly> even everyone, i just installed ubuntu and i noticed the mouse acts different than im used to, reqiring me to hold the mouse button down and release on the item i want in menus and id rather click to open the menu, then click again on the item i want, how do i change that? i cant find it in the settings anyplace
[05:09] <coordinador> help pleas

[05:11] <deexannihilate1> dsnyders: i wasn't able to get it into pastebin
[05:11] <Flannel> sebsebseb: For non-emergencies, it's best to just come to #ubuntu-ops and let us know.
[05:11] <coordinador> guys, please, what can i do if i lost the keyboard layout configuration and theme configuration
[05:11] <Geoffrey2> in this case, I simply missed the / on a join command
[05:11] <navatwo> how do you install a package from a .bin file?
[05:11] <coordinador> and when i try to get back i cant
[05:12] <sebsebseb> Flannel: yeah maybe, but as you can see,   Sassy1 was offtopic for quite a while, and then starts insulting
[05:12] <coordinador> please guys , what can i do?
[05:12] <dsnyders> deexannihilate1, Don't try to put it in the same pastebin as the dmesg, if that's what you're trying to do.
[05:12] <ag3ntugly> navatwo: .bin files are executable, chmod +x the file, then run it as a command
[05:12] <deexannihilate1> dsnyders: I tried to create another one, but it won't paste it.
[05:12] <navatwo> what do you mean by chmod? Sorry, I am still a nub with ubuntu
[05:12] <Sassy1> sebsebseb: Im requesting a chat if i may ?
[05:12] <ag3ntugly> *facepalm*
[05:12] <ag3ntugly> man chmod
[05:13] <sebsebseb> Sassy1: this isn't the channel for chatting
[05:13] <Sassy1> sebsebseb: See IT ?
[05:13] <sebsebseb> !ot |  Sassy1
[05:13] <dsnyders> navatwo, chmod is a command line utility to change the file permissions.
[05:13] <ag3ntugly> http://lmgtfy.com/?q=chmod
[05:14] <Sassy1> sebsebseb: Answer the FSF if you wish.

[05:40] <DasEi> Ziber: going wireless ?
[05:40] <maxagaz> ricree, drawing
[05:41] <Flannel> Amerigo: please pastebin the output of sudo apt-get update
[05:41] <Flannel> !paste | Amerigo
[05:41] <Ziber> DasEi: nein. wired. dont even have a wireless card in this computer
[05:41] <genii> "shell link" ?
[05:41] <BellinXFelon> can someone help me with my external hard drive, i cannot write to it
[05:42] <ricree> maxagaz.  How about inkscape, then
[05:42] <DasEi> Ziber: you router provides dhcp ?
[05:42] <Ziber> DasEi: yep
[05:42] <Ziber> should it not just.. work?
[05:42] <DasEi> Ziber: open a terminal ..
[05:43] <maxagaz> ricree, gpaint seems ok
[05:43] <squirrel25> how does one play .avi files in ubuntu?
[05:43] <DasEi> Ziber: sudo apt-get install pastebinit
[05:43] <Ziber> DasEi: ?
[05:43] <Ziber> whats that?
[05:43] <DasEi> !terminal | Ziber:
[05:43] <Amerigo> http://paste.ubuntu.com/236342/
[05:43] <Ziber> DasEi: i know what terminal is
[05:44] <DasEi> Ziber: sudo apt-get install pastebinit
[05:44] <Ziber> DasEi: but, i cant use apt-get if i dont have internet
[05:44] <DasEi> Ziber: sorry, my fault, paste the out from ifconfig then
[05:44] <zJ0nk> Hello!  Anyone know how to completely disable the IR port on Ubuntu?
[05:44] <genii> squirrel25: I already gave you the link to the restricted formats install instructions when you asked about mpg files in #kubuntu
[05:44] <squirrel25> that didnt work
[05:44] <Flannel> Amerigo: Yeah, something's wonky with those CD packages.  Alright, go ahead and open up your sources.list (/etc/apt/sources.list) with admin privledges in a text editor, and comment out your CDRom lines (with a #)
[05:44] <Ziber> DasEi: i tried setting a static LAN ip, that i know was not in use, and i was still unable to ping my router.
[05:45] <izzypop> can you turn it off in the BIOS instead?
[05:45] <izzypop> IR that is
[05:45] <Flannel> Amerigo: sudo nano /etc/apt/sources.list, or alt-f2, gksu "gedit /etc/apt/sources.list")
[05:45] <Flannel> Amerigo: er, without the )
[05:45] <ricree> I just reinstalled the Nvidia binary driver, but while it's nominally activated, opengl doesn't seem to be available to any applications
[05:46] <DasEi> Ziber: right IP/netmask ? where did you set it up ?
[05:47] <ZykoticK9> Ziber, if you tried to set a static ip with Network Manager Applet I think you're going to run into problems.  You have to jump through some hoops to set static IP on new versions of Ubuntu - it's a rather manual process.
[05:48] <DasEi> Ziber: are you chatting over this router now ? in which os ?
[05:48] <whois> http://bayimg.com/macPOaACo this what I get when I pop in my Linux cd - where would i get ndigstk
[05:48] <Ziber> ZykoticK9: well, i dont care about dhcp vs static, as long as I can get it working
[05:48] <whois> I am trying to install a wireless pci card
[05:48] <Ziber> DasEi: I'm using windows xp atm, which has internet fine
[05:48] <ZykoticK9> Ziber, easiest thing would be to just use DHCP then.
[05:48]  * Ziber is dual booting xp + ubuntu 8.10
[05:48] <Ziber> well, how would i go about doing that in the simplest way possible?
[05:49] <DasEi> Ziber: I see, did you install with the desktop live cd ?
[05:49] <Ziber> well, yeah
[05:51] <Fjss> how can I block a specific program from accessing the internet in 8.04
[05:51] <SuspectZero> is there a virus scanner available for ubuntu that can scan viruses on windows xp partition?
[05:51] <dragonlinux> i dont get this. im trying to open youtube.com in firefox under jaunty. opera displays it normal, but even the latest firefox shows a plainer watered down version of youtube
[05:51] <dragonlinux> what am i missing?
[05:51] <Flannel> whois: Go to a terminal, and do sudo apt-cdrom add
[05:52] <DasEi> Ziber: boot into live then, copy the /etc/network/interfaces to an external medium, and try with that; also on the hd~8.10 there is the option safe-mode >> netroot, which mostly autoconfigures dhcp fine, so can look for interfaces there again
[05:52] <ricree> I just reinstalled the Nvidia binary driver, but the driver shows up as activated, opengl doesn't seem to be available to any applications.  Does anyone have any suggestions how I can go about getting opengl support working?
[05:52] <DasEi> SuspectZero: few, like clamav or antvir commandline
[05:53] <SuspectZero> do either of them have a gui ?
[05:53] <SuspectZero> im really not in the mood atm for cli
[05:53] <DasEi> SuspectZero: haven't tried, wine maybe or via vm
[05:53] <whois> thanx
[05:54] <Fjss> can I use iptables to block a program from accessing the internet?
[05:54] <SuspectZero> k DasEi thanks, i'll try it
[05:54] <whois> Flannel I did that,
[05:55] <donnybrasco> hello - does anyone know how I can get my rocketfish bluetooth keyboard/mouse combo to work on 9.04?
[05:55] <donnybrasco> blueman doesn't seem to recognize my rocketfish bluetooth usb adaptor
[05:55] <Teclys> hey everyone, total newb here, having a hell of a time getting my wireless router to work. is there anyone here who could help me?
[05:56] <Flannel> whois: Alright, then those packages should show up in your package manager.  Oh, to make it easier to install, disable all non-cd repositories (temporarily)
[05:56] <Lostinspac_46> I can't get my screenlets "clear calendar" to (sync?)
[05:56] <Ghoti_> Teclys: Is your computer seeing the router at all?  Is the wireless adapter working?  I suppose what I'm asking is, exactly what is going wrong?
[05:56] <DasEi> Ziber: did you try the live and did it connect to your router ?
[05:57] <whois> thanx
[05:58] <whois> done
[05:58] <Lostinspac_46> Teclys, Did you install ndiswrapper?
[05:58] <whois> thank you Flannel
[06:01] <Teclys> lostinspac, you'll have to forgive my ignorance, its been a long time since i've used irc
[06:02] <Lostinspac_46> Teclys,  Not a problem
[06:02] <Teclys> i have not installed ndiswrapper
[06:02] <Lostinspac_46> Teclys, Have you installed ndiswrapper in ubuntu?
[06:02] <Lostinspac_46> Teclys, oops
[06:03] <Lostinspac_46> Teclys, Message me
[06:03] <maxagaz> is there a way to run an application on top of firefox full screen ?
[06:03] <maxagaz> when the application runs
[06:03] <Amerigo> I don't see anything about the cd rom here: http://paste.ubuntu.com/236347/
[06:04] <ricree> I just reinstalled the Nvidia binary driver, but the driver shows up as activated, opengl doesn't seem to be available to any applications.  Does anyone have any suggestions how I can go about getting opengl support working?
[06:04] <Flannel> Amerigo: line 1
[06:04] <Amerigo> just saw that
[06:04] <Amerigo> thanks
[06:04] <Faithful> Yea Amerigo
[06:05] <Amerigo> now, how do I get permission to save it?
[06:05] <DaZ> Amerigo, sudo?
[06:05] <lowki> how do i see the version of an installed package on the console?
[06:06] <Flannel> lowki: apt-cache policy package
[06:06] <Flannel> lowki: or dpkg -l package
[06:06] <nomad77>  lowki apt-cache show packagename
[06:06] <lowki> Flannel: thanks :)
[06:06] <WeblionX> I currently have a router set up using a tunnel from HE to provide IPv6 access to my home network.  Currently, I have a Windows 7 VM in VirtualBox (Bridged mode) that gets an IPv6 address from the router, and can access IPv6 websites fine.  However, Ubuntu does not get an IP address, even after a reboot.  How can I get Ubuntu to get an IPv6 address upon startup?
[06:08] <Amerigo> ok, I think I have it. Thanks a million!
[06:09] <Ziber> Servers time out when I try to do a hostname lookup in Ubuntu and I'm unable to ping any IP, including LAN ips
[06:12] <BellinXFelon> how do install a tar.bz2 file
[06:13] <coordinador> BellinXFelon, :
[06:13] <coordinador> fistly you have to do bunzip2 file.tar.bz2
[06:13] <DaZ> BellinXFelon, read  the readme in it
[06:13] <coordinador> then you do tar xvf file .tar generated by bz2
[06:14] <qe2eqe> coordinador, file-roller is a nice utility for handling archives
[06:14] <stryker> is it possible for a driver update to burn a graphics card?
[06:14] <arooni_____> help!  ubuntu movie player has a greyed out volume button on jautny.  ideas?
[06:14] <Nisstyre56> stryker I don't think so
[06:15] <DaZ> stryker, teoretically
[06:15] <christopher_> need some help, I have an inspiron e1405, my internet will cut out on my randomly and I will have to reconnect to the network to get it working again
[06:15] <Sassy1> stryker: Greetingz from Magnus of the Fjoords :)
[06:15] <stryker> Nisstyre56: DaZ: well, my friend installed the driver from System>Hardware Drivers and when the computer restarted, the screen would not turn on
[06:15] <Thorn> My sound stopped working after I updated.  I seem to vaguely recall something like this in the past....where the update turned off my sound card. Can anyone help me?
[06:15] <Nisstyre56> did you change the x conf file at all?
[06:16] <coordinador> qe2eqe, you are right, just i use the terminal... sometimes terminal is more mistake-proof giving instructions
[06:16] <q0_0p> amd turion64 is it necessary to have powernowd?
[06:16] <q0_0p> or can i just get rid of it?
[06:16] <DaZ> stryker, stable drivers don't burn hardware usually
[06:16] <ricree> I just reinstalled the Nvidia binary driver.  The driver shows up as activated, but opengl doesn't seem to be available to any applications.  Does anyone have any suggestions how I can go about getting opengl support working?
[06:16] <WeblionX> Thorn: Check the sound settings to make sure the card is selected.
[06:16] <q0_0p> will it make a difference using cpufreq-selector or powernowd?
[06:16] <stryker> DaZ its weird, the laptop turns on and everything, but the screen doesn't turn on at all
[06:17] <DaZ> stryker, anyway, who reboots linux after driver update :f
[06:17] <Nisstyre56> stryker I think it's a problem with the conf file for x
[06:17] <christopher_> can anyone help me with my wireless problem?
[06:17] <Nisstyre56> stryker, does it go to a command line?
[06:17] <DaZ> stryker, even bios' post doesn't show?
[06:17] <Thorn> WeblionX: There are like a million choices.  Currently everything is set to ALSA
[06:17] <stryker> nothing shows up at all
[06:17] <stryker> not even bios
[06:17] <c0mp13371331337> stryker: Is it a Dell?
[06:18] <stryker> Acer
[06:18] <DaZ> interesting
[06:18] <arooni_____> how do i download all .mp3s linked to on a particular web page?
[06:18] <DaZ> arooni_____, man wget
[06:18] <c0mp13371331337> Aww, cause there's a built-in self test that I know of for Dells to test that....  I work for Dell tech support.  Acers, yeah, not too sure about.  Sorry!
[06:18] <WeblionX> Thorn: Have you restarted since the update?
[06:18] <stryker> thanks :P
[06:19] <krishmish> hi room
[06:19] <Thorn> WeblionX: Yes.
[06:19] <stryker> he has an Acer Aspire 5920
[06:19] <krishmish> i cant find the Administration > Login window option in ubuntu 8.04
[06:19] <krishmish> can someone help how to launch it?
[06:20] <coz_> well I am off to bed  guys   do well...be nice...teaching is also learning  so share what you know :)
[06:20] <nomad77> krishmish: sudo gdm-setup?
[06:20] <krishmish> nomad77: yeah
[06:20] <stryker> so im cracking my head as to how i can try and fix this problem
[06:21] <krishmish> nomad77: i dont know how to edit the gdm.conf file
[06:21] <_ohm> if i embed an initramfs into the kernel, is it possible to recover the initramfs in anyway? patch or whatever?
[06:21] <krishmish> so i d rather prefer it the GUI way
[06:21] <christopher_> anyone here help with wireless for insprion e1405?
[06:21] <stryker> it has to be the graphics card, because the screen doesn't turn on at all
[06:21] <stryker> is it possible for the card to just shut-off?
[06:21] <nomad77> krishmish: its a gui-app
[06:21] <krishmish> nomad77: yeah
[06:21] <krishmish> nomad77: i actually wanna edit the remote tab options
[06:22] <WeblionX> stryker: The backlight might have died.  If you hold it up to light can you see any sort of picture?
[06:22] <Thorn> WeblionX: Did you see that last message?
[06:22] <stryker> WeblionX: no
[06:22] <nomad77> stryker: more likely screen-brightness
[06:22] <WeblionX> Thorn: Yeah, sorry.  Don't know what else to try, really.  Other than restarting again. Might be a program stuck in the background.
[06:22] <WeblionX> Thorn: Disabling Pulse Audio might do it, but I don't really know how to go through that.
[06:22] <pootsz> Hello I need some help
[06:23] <stryker> nomad77: i dont think so, we tried that
[06:23] <DasEi> !details | pootsz
[06:23] <frogzoo> pootsz: preliminaries are just spam, just state your problem
[06:24] <krishmish> nomad77: im stunped
[06:24]  * roved2101 hugs sebsebseb
[06:24] <stryker> and we tried plugging up another monitor as well
[06:24] <pootsz> I just installed a new video card a xfx radeon hd 4350 on my asus p5q-em motherboard and now I have no sound
[06:25] <krishmish> i cant find the Administration > Login window option in ubuntu 8.04
[06:25] <krishmish> can someone help how to launch it?
[06:25] <stryker> i guess this is not a very common occurence..
[06:26] <DasEi> pootsz: did you install any additonal drivers ?
[06:26] <Nisstyre56> stryker what's your graphics card and mobo models?
[06:26] <stryker> erm, i dont have the laptop next to me
[06:26] <stryker> Intel x3100 i think
[06:27] <stryker> not sure
[06:27] <pootsz> yes I installed fglrx to control the graphics card
[06:27] <DasEi> !sound | pootsz
[06:27] <RenatoSilva> what is the current kernel in ubuntu, 2.6.28-13?
[06:28] <Flannel> !info linux-image-generic
[06:28] <christopher_> anyone know what channel can help me with my wireless problem in ubuntu 9.04?
[06:28] <Nisstyre56> stryker I'm googling to see if anyone else has had issues
[06:28] <stryker> Nisstyre56: thnx
[06:29] <krishmish> ran gksu /usr/sbin/gdmsetup in Alt+F2 window...and it worked
[06:29] <stryker> additional info: Vista is the primary OS, ubuntu was installed via wubi... hmm, i don't know what else i can add, it was Jaunty
[06:29] <RenatoSilva> Flannel: it is 13 in grub's menu, how to put the correct there? the 14 is already installed
[06:29] <DasEi>  pootsz : so if sound worked before, did you check alsamixer ?
[06:29] <Nisstyre56> so far i've found it might be a power supply problem stryker
[06:29] <Flannel> RenatoSilva: sudo update-grub
[06:30] <RenatoSilva> Flannel: I compared the new menu.lst with the current and it did not show any diff, so I kept the current
[06:30] <stryker> Nisstyre56: really?
[06:30] <q0_0p> do i need powernowd for turion ml-34?
[06:30] <Nisstyre56> what model of acer was it again?
[06:30] <stryker> Aspire 5920
[06:30] <Nisstyre56> well, it's not the same model
[06:30] <Nisstyre56> but it could be the power supply
[06:30] <shafi_> I am connecting to a wireless network but I can't browse pages? any idea? iam using ubuntu 09.04?
[06:30] <stryker> I see
[06:31] <ecumenical> We have a public access computer lab and would like for users to be able to log into their Ubuntu account no matter which terminal they are operating at. Is there some kind of central identification server that can be set up to allow this?
[06:31] <christopher_> shafi: I am having a problem also with my wireless
[06:31] <shafi_> christopher: I also have this problem with my LAN
[06:31] <RenatoSilva> Flannel: it finds 14, but does not update menu.lst
[06:31] <ecumenical> christopher_, have you checked to see if there are proprietary drivers available for your card?
[06:31] <RenatoSilva> Flannel: update-grub
[06:31] <shafi_> sometimes works but its not working since two days
[06:32] <christopher_> ecumenical: I check the proprietar drivers, it searches but none are found
[06:32] <shafi_> christopher: whats your problem?
[06:32] <DasEi> ecumenical: either you can use ssh or set up a primary pdc, combining kerberos
[06:32] <ecumenical> christopher_, what is the card manufacturer and model?
[06:33] <DaZ> ecumenical,  something like thin client/
[06:33] <christopher_> ecumenical: it is an inspiron e1405, dell integrated, ran 9.04 in beta with no problems, but now i do.  I think it's ipwl 43something
[06:33] <Nisstyre56> stryker, you said he installed new drivers, do you remember exactly what type of drivers?
[06:33] <RenatoSilva> how to update menu.lst? update-grub is not working
[06:33] <christopher_> shafi_: after a while of internet use, it will just stop working for upto 5 minutes
[06:33] <stryker> Nisstyre56: thats a tough one, i know they were the drivers Ubuntu recommended
[06:34] <ecumenical> christopher_, do you have kernel-backports installed?
[06:34] <pootsz> in alsamixer my Realtek ALC1200 chip is listed
[06:34] <stryker> Nisstyre56: for the graphics card
[06:34] <MarshWiggle> hello, how might I make my external usb harddrive work on kubuntu?
[06:34] <Macro_FTW> ...
[06:34] <christopher_> ecumenical: I just installed this again, i'm running off of a new installation
[06:34] <DasEi> !who | pootsz,  good sign
[06:34] <DasEi>  pootsz : are the channels unmuted ?
[06:35] <Nisstyre56> Yeah, I'm still thinking it's a problem with your xorg conf file, but I don't know why it's not going to a command line stryker
[06:35] <ricree> I just reinstalled the Nvidia binary driver.  The driver shows up as activated, but opengl doesn't seem to be available to any applications.  Does anyone have any suggestions how I can go about getting opengl support working?
[06:35] <christopher_> ecumenical: what are kernel-backports?
[06:35] <ecumenical> ubottu, backports
[06:36] <stryker> Nisstyre56: im not sure it has to do with that, because not even the bios comes up, if it would have to do with that, i would guess ubuntu would not show up, but the bios post would
[06:36] <Nisstyre56> that is true
[06:36] <ecumenical> christopher_, I have had troubles with wireless cards in the past which has been resolved by installing the backports
[06:36] <pootsz> (DasEi) they say zero on one side and mm on the other
[06:36] <ecumenical> christopher_, can you hook your dell up to the internet via ethernet?
[06:36] <Nisstyre56> well, checked to see if the mobo lights are on?
[06:37] <stryker> yeah
[06:37] <christopher_> ecumenical: it's working atm, i found that when it messes up just reconnect to network and its fine
[06:37] <christopher_> ecumenical: how do i install backports?
[06:37] <ecumenical> oh, ok
[06:37] <genii> !backports
[06:39] <DasEi>  pootsz : are the speaker icons above the sliders green ? (click-able)
[06:39] <stryker> random question, can a graphics card be literally "turned off" ?
[06:39] <ecumenical> christopher_, search for 'backports' in synaptic
[06:39] <ecumenical> christopher_, make sure it matches your current kernel version.. you might not need backports if your card is working though
[06:39] <Nisstyre56> stryker, has he tried calling acer tech support?
[06:39] <Nisstyre56> if it's a hardware problem..they should help
[06:39] <stryker> Nisstyre56: no
[06:39] <RenatoSilva> I removed latest kernel and it does not show anymore in update manager!!!
[06:39] <Nisstyre56> I dunno how "helpful" they'll actually be
[06:40] <DasEi> stryker: by bios or disabled by soft, yes
[06:40] <RenatoSilva> How can ubuntu be updated if I just removed the latest kernel?
[06:40] <stryker> disable by soft, what do you mean?
[06:40] <christopher_> ecumenical: how do i know which one i need?
[06:40] <ecumenical> DasEi, can we just use SSH for authentication and to transfer the users' home directories while the local resources are used for processing?
[06:40] <Ziber> I try pinging things in Ubuntu, and get "destination host unreachable". What to do?
[06:40] <DasEi> !pm | pootsz
[06:41] <ecumenical> christopher_, I am not sure that you actually need backports. I probably wouldn't install it unless you know it will definately fix your problem.
[06:41] <WeblionX> stryker: Try resetting the BIOS?
[06:41] <stryker> how can we do that? we tried.. but we dont know how
[06:41] <ecumenical> Would installing backports potentially be detrimental to christopher_'s PC? Anyone?
[06:42] <WeblionX> stryker: Remove the battery, unplug it, and find the reset button.  Could be on the back, or possible under the keyboard.
[06:42] <christopher_> ecumenical: it will work for a while, then it will just stop working for about 5 minutes, or until i reset the connection
[06:42] <ricree> can anyone point me to a good resource for getting opengl to work?  I have the binary driver installed, but opengl is not working for me (it has in the past, but I had to reinstall).
[06:42] <DasEi> ecumenical: you can use ssh while the serving machine is in use. if you want to sync home dirs, use unison or rsync
[06:42] <stryker> WeblionX: wait, what about the CMOS?
[06:42] <stryker> DasEi: what did you mean by turning off the card by soft?
[06:42] <DaZ> ricree, if it's nvidia it has to work
[06:43] <christopher_>
[06:43] <WeblionX> stryker: What do you mean what about it?
[06:43] <ricree> DaZ:  What do you mean?
[06:43] <stryker> WeblionX: how can I reset cmos? via the mobo?
[06:43] <ecumenical> DasEi, so each node on the network would necessarily have all of the home directories stored locally?
[06:43] <Thorn> My audio isn't working, and I'm not sure whats wrong.  Can someone help me?
[06:43] <WeblionX> stryker: Remove the battery, unplug it, and find the reset button.  Could be on the back, or possible under the keyboard.
[06:43] <DasEi> stryker: many cards can be switched by software, so following shut down also ( think of overheating)
[06:44] <WeblionX> stryker: You probably have to hold it for 5-10 seconds.
[06:44] <DaZ> ricree, nvidia just works
[06:44] <stryker> WeblionX: hmm
[06:44] <Ziber> I try pinging things in Ubuntu, and get "destination host unreachable". What to do?
[06:44] <stryker> DasEi: ok, i see
[06:44] <ecumenical> christopher_, are you using WPA or WEP encryption on the router?
[06:44] <christopher_> ecumenical: any idea?
[06:44] <ricree> DaZ: well.... unfortunately not for me at the moment.  I suppose I'll just try reinstalling the drivers again, if no one has any other suggestions
[06:45] <DaZ> ricree, i don't even know what model  do you have
[06:45] <Nisstyre56> Ziber, go to system >> administration >> network tools, select the traceroute tab, type in google.com, paste the results to pastebin and report back
[06:45] <DaZ> so everything i can do is say... works or me
[06:45] <christopher_> ecumencial: wpa i believe, but it happens with an a connection with no security
[06:46] <DaZ> ricree, lsmod|grep nvidia
[06:46] <pootsz> thank you for the help I'm following the instructions on the web page
[06:46] <ricree> DaZ:  it's a geforce 9600M, though as I said, it's worked in the past
[06:46] <DasEi> ecumenical: no and yes, I 'm not sure if I get you right; if you got 4 machines and 4 users, they all would have their own account on each machine, so they could login from anywhere, and then still have to sync it..
[06:46] <Nisstyre56> actually, I don't think you can copy paste from there
[06:46] <ricree> DaZ: nvidia               7233756  23
[06:47] <stryker> Nisstyre56: we tried looking for that in the mobo but we couldn't find it, im pretty sure its on the mobo
[06:47] <DaZ> ricree, nvidia-xconfig and kill the xserver
[06:47] <Thorn> Can someone help me with my audio issues?
[06:47] <DasEi> ecumenical: if the scene is a bigger one, you will set up a server, in which all the accounts are, and small (thin ) clients environment
[06:48] <Nisstyre56> do you still have the manual for the laptop/mobo stryker ?
[06:48] <ecumenical> DasEi, well, it would be easier to set up an account for each user on only one node, rather than creating any arbitrary number of users on any number of nodes, In order for this lab to \scale easily.i
[06:48] <stryker> well, we got one online Nisstyre56
[06:48] <ecumenical> DasEi, for instance, a campus wide implementation of portable user accounts across multiple lab environments.
[06:48] <Nisstyre56> hmm, see if it says anything about flashing the bios
[06:49] <christopher_> ecumenical: should I have propriety drivers to use? I have before
[06:49] <ecumenical> christopher_, if there are proprietary drivers available. Did you check under System>>Administration>>Hardware Drivers?
[06:50] <stryker> Nisstyre56: ok
[06:50] <DasEi> ecumenical: for sure, especialy if you can't expect technical user knowledge
[06:50] <ricree> Daz: Just did that.  It didn't help
[06:51] <ecumenical> DasEi, so I should research the LTSP then?
[06:51] <shafi_> I am connecting to a wireless network but I can't browse internet pages? any idea? i am using ubuntu 09.04?
[06:51] <Nisstyre56> Ziber: if you still need help "sudo apt-get install traceroute" "traceroute google.com" copy paste to pastebin, post the link
[06:51] <christopher_> ecumenical: it searches, then says "No proprietary drivers are in use on this system."
[06:51] <DaZ> ricree, glxinfo|grep direct, what driver version
[06:51] <ecumenical> christopher_, are there any drivers listed in the box?
[06:51] <christopher_> ecumenical: nope
[06:52] <ecumenical> christopher_, ok... hmm
[06:52] <phylon> I wanted to get a huge printout, the image is 8000x8000 pixels, do you guys know where can I get one page printout of this image, dividing and adding up doesnt seem to be a good solution
[06:52] <ecumenical> phylon, what size is the paper you wish to print on?
[06:52] <christopher_> ecumenical: in the last version, i had a wireless driver and video driver
[06:53] <ricree> DaZ:Xlib:  extension "GLX" missing on display ":0.0".
[06:53] <bullgard4> Where can I find a comprehensive description of Chatzilla?
[06:53] <DasEi> ecumenical: I'm no specialist on that field, that is one way, and linux as server in general, mentioning the fact you want to connect the lab groups inbetween
[06:53] <ecumenical> christopher_, can you roll back to 8.10 or 8.04 LTS?
[06:53] <Nisstyre56> bullgard4 what do you need help with?
[06:53] <ecumenical> christopher_, that or try Linux Mint
[06:53] <christopher_> ecumenical: i'll have to download it, before when i installed 9.04 beta, i had the drivers listed
[06:54] <phylon> ecumenical, I am not sure, the pixel 8000x8000 is optimal for seeing the text in the image, going lower will make it smaller and unreadable
[06:54] <ecumenical> christopher_, or CrunchBang.
[06:54] <bullgard4> Nisstyre56: An account of its capabilities and integration in the Seamonkey project.
[06:54] <christopher_> ecumenical: CrunchBand?
[06:54] <N30> join
[06:54] <Nisstyre56> well it works like other irc clients bullgard4
[06:55] <Nisstyre56> https://addons.mozilla.org/eu/seamonkey/addon/16
[06:55] <ecumenical> christopher_, http://crunchbanglinux.org/ http://www.linuxmint.com/
[06:55] <bullgard4> Nisstyre56: Your statement is unqualified.
[06:55] <om26er> can i install netbook launcher on xubuntu
[06:55] <ecumenical> phylon, I don't think that you need an 8000 pixel image in order to read the text. that is aproximately 111 inches.
[06:56] <ecumenical> phylon, is there a copy of the image online?
[06:56] <DaZ> ricree, there's one libglx extension with the nvidia driver and one vanilla in the system
[06:56] <phylon> ecumenical, sorry no,
[06:57] <phylon> ecumenical: yes I can lower the resolution
[06:57] <DaZ> ricree, it's this  or  old nvidia module
[06:57] <ecumenical> phylon, yes, using the GIMP or whatever. That shouldn't render your text illegible.
[06:57] <losher> bullgard4: http://chatzilla.hacksrus.com/
[06:58] <ecumenical> phylon, make sure that you constrain the proportions when you downsample. you might be skewing the image? Just a thought.
[06:58] <DaZ> i don't know ubuntu directories enough to fix this but driver reinstall or reboot may help
[06:58] <Ziber> Is nvidia nforce nic supported by Ubuntu?
[06:58] <Nisstyre56> Ziber is that an onboard nic?
[06:58] <Thorn> I think I've figured out part of my audio issues, but I need someone to confirm.  I forced ALSA to reload, and I got the following message "WARNING: All config files need .conf: /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base, it will be ignored in a future release."  Is that what the problem is?
[06:59] <Ziber> yeah... pretty sure.
[06:59] <phylon> ecumenical, so if I make it 111x111 inches printout I should get readable image ?
[06:59] <phylon> but thats huge
[06:59] <Nisstyre56> Ziber boot up the live cd, and if you can connect to the internet you're fine
[06:59] <phylon> its 12'x12'
[07:00] <Ziber> Nisstyre56: ... wasnt able to before when i tried...
[07:00] <ecumenical> phylon, 111x111 inches is huge. Printer paper is typically 8.5x11 inches.
[07:00] <irving> Soo...can anyone tell me how to permanently disable the system beep...
[07:00] <phylon> ecumenical: yes I know that, I was thinking of going to fedex kinko or someplace that they can help with it
[07:00] <Nisstyre56> Ziber you weren't able to boot from the CD? Did you try changing the boot order in your bios settings?
[07:01] <phylon> but I think 12'x12' is almost impossible for me to work on
[07:01] <phylon> haha
[07:01] <Ziber> Nisstyre56: I could boot from the CD, I couldnt get internet from the live cd, I mean.
[07:01] <ecumenical> phylon, try downsampling the image to 612x612 pixels
[07:01] <Nisstyre56> Oh
[07:01] <Ziber> I figured that was just a limitation of the live cd...
[07:01] <coordinador> -what could be if i cannot change nor keyboard layout neither gnome theme?
[07:01] <irving> I got internet with my Live cd...
[07:02] <Nisstyre56> And you couldn't ping any sites Ziber? Is the light on your ethernet port on?
[07:02] <coordinador> (even in desktop's root)
[07:02] <coordinador> viceversa
[07:02] <coordinador> :p
[07:02] <RenatoSilva> I'm using the terminal and in "@gnu" the @ and g are too closer, almost one over the other. What's this?
[07:02] <ecumenical> phylon, yea 9ft by 9ft is pretty darn big :-)
[07:02] <Ziber> Nisstyre56: no sites, cant even ping the router's IP
[07:02] <FIKUSZ> sziasztok magyarorszГЎgbГіl van valaki ?
[07:03] <phylon> ecumenical: yeah, and I need to work on it with rulers and stuff
[07:03] <phylon> o god
[07:03] <Nisstyre56> could be a problem with dhcp. Check to see if a green led light comes on and off when you take the ethernet cable out of the pc first though
[07:03] <losher> RenatoSilva: try changing the font, or resizing it...
[07:03] <ecumenical> RenatoSilva, what terminal are you using?
[07:03] <RenatoSilva> losher: iirc it was not that way
[07:03] <Ziber> Nisstyre56: alright, well, i'll have to brb then to try this, because its a dual boot on this machine....
[07:03] <RenatoSilva> ecumenical: ubuntu's?
[07:04] <Nisstyre56> all right
[07:04] <Ziber> but.... i even tried setting a static ip
[07:04] <ecumenical> RenatoSilva, click on Help>>About. You should see GNOME terminal.
[07:04] <Ziber> and that didnt work before
[07:04] <Nisstyre56> if you're running it on windows though
[07:04] <Nisstyre56> it shouldn't be a problem with the hardware
[07:04] <Macro_FTW> Where are files downloaded using Synaptic Packet Manager normally placed?
[07:04] <Ziber> i mean, are certain hardware not supported by ubuntu?
[07:04] <ecumenical> RenatoSilva, if you are using GNOME terminal you can click View>>Zoom In
[07:05] <RenatoSilva> ecumenical: it's not size, it's	FreeSans Medium font. What's the default in Ubuntu?
[07:05] <RenatoSilva> losher: ^
[07:06] <Ziber> brb, trying again
[07:06] <ecumenical> RenatoSilva, I just have the box marked : Use the system fixed width font.
[07:07] <RenatoSilva> ecumenical: ok ok, I'll search for a better font here. Thanks!
[07:07] <losher> RenatoSilva: no harm trying different fonts to find one you like better...
[07:07] <RenatoSilva> losher: ^
[07:07] <RenatoSilva> losher: the one I like is FreeSans Medium, but it's buggy :(
[07:08] <coordinador> bye all
[07:08] <indistylo> how can i download some Emerald themes? Pls brief me out on this

[07:11] <AnActivist> Hello everyone, I'm trying to install ubuntu on my bosses laptop however when i try to create a dual boot, when I am brought to the partition table it doesn't let me split up the harddrive with the fancy gui. I tried booting into the live cd and checking out his partition table with gparted and it looks like whoever set up the windows install made the boot partition huge (70 gigs) and the main partition tiny (5 gigs), my question is
[07:11] <AnActivist> : if I delete the huge boot partition and then increase the size of the main partition and then install ubuntu in the remaining space will ubuntu pick up the windows partition still even though the boot flagged partition will be deleted?

[07:22] <Nisstyre56> haroelcabo sudo apt-get emacs
[07:22] <oldude67> wasnt emerald replaced?
[07:22] <madsj> is there some way you can use wildcards with aptitude ?
[07:23] <Mx60> madsj > apt-get search is already using wildcards
[07:23] <haroelcabo> Nisstyre56: will that replace the current -snapshot transitional package ? or should I delet it first ?
[07:23] <avinash> hello
[07:23] <Nisstyre56> If you have an older version of emacs, it should replace it haroelcabo
[07:23] <haroelcabo> Nisstyre56: thanks
[07:24] <haroelcabo> Nisstyre56: doesn't it matter the fact tha in synaptic the emacs package shows version 22.2ubuntu2 ?
[07:25] <losher> madsj: I'm not sure wildcards are as useful in aptitude as you might think. What are you trying to do?
[07:25] <Nisstyre56> It shouldn't...just install the latest one with synaptic..
[07:25] <madsj> losher: remove all openoffice-packages
[07:25] <WeblionX> haroelcabo: To install a newer package than is in the repositories, you have to download a .deb file for Ubuntu from the people that make the software.
[07:25] <durando> hey guys, i accidently removed applications, places, and system from my panel how do i get these menus back?
[07:26] <losher> !openoffice
[07:26] <baheer> Hello All
[07:26] <Contessa> durando .... re-install gnome-tools
[07:26] <haroelcabo> WeblionX: thanks , so that implies deleting the current installed package , i feel , right ?
[07:26] <baheer> how can I extract an Archieve in Ubuntu via Command Line?
[07:26] <WeblionX> haroelcabo: If you get a .deb, it'll automatically remove the old one.
[07:26] <WeblionX> baheer: What type of archive?
[07:27] <durando> Contessa: just to sound like even more of a noob how can i open a terminal window if i dont have the menu?
[07:27] <baheer> tar
[07:27] <losher> madsj: can you do sudo apt-get remove openoffice.org ?
[07:27] <WeblionX> baheer: tar -xf <filename>
[07:27] <erry> Hey uh
[07:27] <Contessa> durando ... get out of X, and use a console login ?
[07:27] <erry> i dual boot ubuntu and windows xp
[07:27] <erry> and my windows xp clock is 3 hours behind
[07:27] <madsj> losher: no
[07:27] <haroelcabo> WeblionX: despite the fact that the current is the transitional package (not the exact same name ) ?
[07:27] <erry> and if i try to correct it
[07:27] <erry> my ubuntu tim is ruined
[07:27] <erry> it goes 3 hours infront of normal
[07:27] <durando> Contessa: ok... how do i get out of x?
[07:27] <erry> so
[07:28] <losher> madsj: what happens when you run it?
[07:28] <FloodBot2> erry: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[07:28] <erry> IM NOT FLOOODING
[07:28] <erry> again with this stupid channel
[07:28] <erry> i asked a simple question
[07:28] <WeblionX> erry: You have to set the right timezone.
[07:28] <madsj> losher: no matches are found, and the programs quits
[07:28] <baheer> tanx
[07:28] <WeblionX> haroelcabo: If it has the right information.  If not, just remove the old one.
[07:28] <Greasy_Larry> anyone here use android
[07:28] <erry> hi :)
[07:29] <oldude67> erry try to keep it on one line ..
[07:29] <erry> so im quite sure the timezone is correct
[07:29] <haroelcabo> WeblionX: thanks
[07:29] <Contessa> duarndo .... go to your file that loads the daemons, and remove kdm, gdm, or whatever session manager you are using
[07:29] <johnliu> if I have a ubuntu but vista system how can I reset the vista system?
[07:29] <stryker> Nisstyre56: http://www.laptopking.com/boards/959683.jpg this is the motherboard, but we can't figure out how to find the cmos reset
[07:29] <Contessa> then reboot
[07:29] <erry> yes it is
[07:29] <WeblionX> erry: Well, during setup there is an option to select if your hardware time is different than your timezone.
[07:29] <ActionParsnip> erry: if you press enter every other word, yes it will scroll the channel, so yes you are flooding
[07:29] <losher> madsj: ok, try doing ls -l /var/cache/apt/archive/*office*
[07:29] <ActionParsnip> erry: try typing more than 4 words before you press enter key
[07:30] <erry> WeblionX, which setup
[07:30] <WeblionX> erry: When you install Ubuntu.  I'm not sure if there's a way to change it afterwards via a GUI.
[07:30] <Nisstyre56> stryker http://4zzblawg.wordpress.com/2008/11/02/aspire-one-how-to-flash-bios/ try that
[07:30] <stryker> ok
[07:30] <erry> WeblionX, my ubuntu time's fine now but windows xp is 3 hours behind normal
[07:30] <erry> so i need to fix windows itme
[07:30] <erry> without ruining linux time
[07:31] <WeblionX> erry: Just a second.
[07:31] <Greasy_Larry> erry enter button is probably the cause
[07:31] <madsj> losher: I just took the easy way out, and removed them using synaptic
[07:31] <erry> XD
[07:31] <WeblionX> erry: Try `hwclock --hctosys`
[07:32] <erry> where
[07:32] <erry> which os
[07:32] <losher> madsj: perfect...
[07:32] <WeblionX> erry: Linux.
[07:32] <WeblionX> Might have to do `sudo hwclock --hctosys`
[07:32] <erry> WeblionX, but if i reboot to linux then i cant use dialup
[07:32] <erry> so
[07:32] <erry> i cant tell u how it went
[07:32] <erry> and for the last time
[07:32] <madsj> losher: but I prefer using the commandline, and was wondering why this is so tough
[07:32] <erry> my linux time is fine
[07:32] <FloodBot2> erry: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[07:32] <WeblionX> erry: Linux is setting it that way.
[07:33] <WeblionX> erry: Linux knows how to handle it, but Windows doesn't, so you need to adjust Linux.
[07:33] <erry> ..
[07:33] <erry> so
[07:33] <erry> i set the correct time in windows
[07:33] <erry> and then
[07:33] <erry> i go to linux and use
[07:33] <Contessa> erry ..why cont you use dialup in linux ?
[07:33] <FloodBot2> erry: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[07:33] <erry> bye
[07:33] <losher> madsj: well ideally a single meta package should install or remove the whole thing, but if the progammers were lazy....
[07:33] <erry> *-bye
[07:33] <erry> so
[07:33] <erry> Contessa, because it wont owkr

[07:36] <johnliu> you are good at english
[07:36] <mattwj2002> I have a question
[07:36] <johnliu> respect
[07:36] <WeblionX> I currently have a router set up using a tunnel from HE to provide IPv6 access to my home network.  Currently, I have a Windows 7 VM in VirtualBox (Bridged mode) that gets an IPv6 address from the router, and can access IPv6 websites fine.  However, Ubuntu does not get an IP address, even after a reboot.  How can I get Ubuntu to get an IPv6 address upon startup?
[07:36] <supermario3> i'm italian and i'm not very good in engish!
[07:37] <mattwj2002> what is the best 802.11n wireless nic for ubuntu....I want something that will work right out of the box and it has to be pci

[07:38] <losher> Greasy_Larry: I think you just proved your point...
[07:38] <WeblionX> Veratyr9: If you launch it from a console window you can get information from Wine output.
[07:38] <Veratyr9> but X crashes, meaning the terminal closes
[07:39] <Veratyr9> WeblionX:
[07:39] <mattwj2002> anyone have any suggestions?
[07:39] <WeblionX> Eesh.
[07:39] <WeblionX> Could add `> log.txt` to log to a file.

[07:42] <WeblionX> losher: I think he's asking how to remove ads from his free webhost.
[07:42] <Nisstyre56> first of all Ziber run this in terminal "sudo dhclient"
[07:42] <Nisstyre56> see if it gives you an ip address
[07:43] <durando> how can i remove the recent documents from places menu or if need be redo the places menu
[07:43] <Ziber> Nisstyre56: alright... brb then. have to switch back to ubuntu.
[07:43] <Nisstyre56> If it says "No DHCPOFFERS received." that means there's something wrong with dhcp
[07:43] <usr1202> if I specify a seperate partition to mount on /home, do I need to create a directory at /home, or will fstab create it automatically?
[07:43] <losher> WeblionX: I think you're right. I'm afrai he's going to be disappointed with the answer...
[07:43] <Greasy_Larry> I would like to transfer apps from Ubuntu to Android, anybody k-now how.
[07:43] <Lostinspac_46> yep
[07:44] <oldude67> Nisstyre56, Ziber> yep, it does. the correct ip, gateway, broadcast, etc
[07:44] <WeblionX> Lolikon: You can try 'testdisk', but if it's not already installed you might lose the data.
[07:44] <WeblionX> You can also run 'testdisk' from a liveCD.
[07:44] <JustStyle-Ubuntu> Hi
[07:44] <losher> Lolikon: so you're saying you deleted your /var/run directory?
[07:44] <Veratyr9> found this in xorg.0.log after an X crash from world of warcraft: (EE) fglrx(0): Failed to allocate dynamic shared buffer!  any ideas?
[07:45] <Lolikon> losher, yes

[07:45] <Lostinspac_46> ouch
[07:45] <JustStyle-Ubuntu> i'm korean user
[07:45] <WeblionX> Veratyr9: Could be not enough video memory, or possibly a hardware problem.
[07:45] <JustStyle-Ubuntu> i'don't understand :(
[07:45] <WeblionX> Or just Wine doing something stupid.
[07:45] <JustStyle-Ubuntu> i'm computer video memory 32mb
[07:46] <JustStyle-Ubuntu> ..
[07:46] <JustStyle-Ubuntu> :(
[07:46] <Veratyr9> WeblionX: hopefully its the latter, googling
[07:46] <Veratyr9> !ko
[07:46] <JustStyle-Ubuntu> oh
[07:46] <JustStyle-Ubuntu> thank you
[07:46] <Veratyr9> i have no idea what that says but there ya go hehe
[07:46] <WeblionX> Ah, I had the language code wrong.
[07:47] <JustStyle-Ubuntu> ?
[07:47] <Greasy_Larry> it says "herro prease, I rub Korean peoper"
[07:48] <oldude67> thats not funny...rofl lmao...:D
[07:48] <WeblionX> I kind of find it hilarious that I can get an ipv6 tunnel from HE working on my computer, but if the router is giving out IPv6 addresses the computer won't use them.
[07:49] <ctrlaltjeff> i used dpkg-reconfigure console-setup to set up tty[1-6] but i still only have tty's 1 and 2, any thoughts on how to get the other 4? they display a cursor but no login prompt
[07:49] <Lolikon> is /var/run runtime data?
[07:50] <WeblionX> Lolikon: /var/run should reappear on reboot, I think.
[07:50] <Lolikon> WeblionX, okay. so I should reboot after removing that folder? I just do not want to reboot then be totally broken.
[07:51] <WeblionX> Lolikon: Well, nothing's _supposed_ to use it for anything permanent, but I won't guarantee anything. :x
[07:51] <mataks_> help i just installed virtualbox-3.0 .. how can i open it? i can see it in my applications
[07:51] <losher> Weblion: Lolikon: I think so too, but you might need to re-create the directory itself by hand. And of course, any current data will be lost...
[07:51] <Ziber> dhclient did nothing :(
[07:52] <sdsrt>  losher: there simlink, another mount-point or something else?
[07:52] <Nisstyre56> all right Ziber so it said that you weren't getting an ip?
[07:52] <Lolikon> :o Okay. I am just hesitant to reboot as it takes me like 9 hours to rehash all my torrents, or if stuff would get more broken D:
[07:52] <Nisstyre56> or it did nothing at all?
[07:52] <durando> losher by default virtualbox is under System Tools sub menu under applications
[07:52] <Ziber> Nisstyre56: said not getting an ip
[07:52] <Nisstyre56> okay
[07:52] <Ziber> it tried.
[07:52] <Ziber> :(
[07:52] <Nisstyre56> you can try changing your link speed
[07:52] <dotness> mataks; application>accesories> virtualbox?
[07:52] <Nisstyre56> http://ubuntuforums.org/showpost.php?p=5997728&postcount=11

[07:53] <Lolikon> !jp
[07:53] <durando> sorry losher it was meant for mataks_ not you my bad
[07:54] <losher> Lolikon: then you need a better torrent client. Some of them will save state so the rehashing can be skipped...
[07:54] <Lolikon> it is because I remount the drive every time
[07:54] <Ziber> Nisstyre56: ...?
[07:54] <foundry87> Does anyone know of a Flash Decompiler available for Ubuntu?
[07:54] <Lolikon> and I have like 3 TBs of torrents
[07:54] <Nisstyre56> that changes the link speed which your nic connects to the router
[07:54] <Nisstyre56> a more detailed explanation here: http://www.cyberciti.biz/faq/howto-setup-linux-lan-card-find-out-full-duplex-half-speed-or-mode/
[07:55] <oldude67> Ziber, what type of eth0 and what router are you using? do you know>?
[07:55] <WeblionX> Lolikon: Can you just add it to your fstab so it automatically mounts on startup?
[07:55] <Nisstyre56> could you also tell me the model of your router Ziber ?
[07:55] <Lolikon> nah, the sd* name changes
[07:55] <mataks_> durando,  i can't see virtualbox in my  Applications >> System Tools >>
[07:55] <WeblionX> Lolikon: You can use the UUID so it doesn't matter.
[07:55] <mataks_> durando,  should i reboot first?
[07:55] <Lolikon> hm
[07:55] <Lolikon> okay
[07:55] <durando> mataks_: you shouldn't have to
[07:55] <losher> Lolikon: I don't know of any other way to get /var/run back though...
[07:56] <Lolikon> okay, I will reboot ten
[07:56] <Lolikon> wish me luck D:
[07:56] <durando> mataks_: the command is VirtualBox
[07:56] <WeblionX> Lolikon: `blkid` will list the UUIDs to use in fstab.
[07:56] <Ziber> router is actiontec, mi424-wr
[07:56] <oldude67> mataks_, if you just installed vbox yes i would suggest you rebooting.
[07:57] <mataks_> durando,  there it start.. thanks
[07:57] <oldude67> no you dont have to..but
[07:57] <durando> mataks_: np
[07:58] <losher> Lolikon: I don't see why a device name change makes your client rehash. A decent client will check that 'last changed' date of the file & see that nothing has changed & hence skip the rehash
[07:59] <WeblionX> losher: The problem is the drive isn't mounted on startup, so the client removes it and the hash.
[08:00] <Guest64599> hi all
[08:00] <oldude67> !hi
[08:00] <losher> WeblionX: I must be missing something. Boot, then mount the drive, then start the client. Why would the client think anything changed...?
[08:00] <WeblionX> Losher: My guess is either the client autostarts, or he just forgets to mount it.

[08:04] <maxagaz> WeblionX, no, x-window

[08:08] <Nisstyre56> it doesn't say "clear recent documents" durando?
[08:08] <durando> i dont want to just clear i want to remove it completely
[08:09] <durando> its wasted space and violates my privacy
[08:09] <Nisstyre56> oh, you'd have to configure gnome
[08:09] <Nisstyre56> I wouldn't know how, sorry

[08:09] <durando> losher: yea no one is awake over there
[08:10] <WeblionX> Weird, there's options for "Main Menu" but it has only Apps/System, not Places.
[08:10] <durando> it is reported as Bug 305325 but hasn't been implemented in 4 years......
[08:11] <Nisstyre56> Ziber it might be a problem with your router, tried updating the firmware?
[08:11] <WeblionX> durando: Don't worry, there's a bug in Firefox that I'm annoyed at that hasn't been updated in 6 or so years. :X
[08:11] <cyberghoser1> Hello all

[08:12] <durando> which one if you dont mind me asking
[08:12] <WeblionX> Er, sorry, Thunderbird, not Firefox.
[08:12] <losher> durando: the privacy issue is annoying. But doesn't someone have to login to your account to see your places menu?
[08:12] <bullgard4> I downloaded and installed the DEB program packages seamonkey-chatzilla and seamonkey-browser. How to call the Chatzilla  program?
[08:12] <durando> oh thunderbird .............................
[08:12] <durando> yea different story than firefox
[08:12] <Nisstyre56> Yeah, I figured. Check the system logs on your router for anything funny though
[08:12] <loafers> The screen saver "Lattice" causes my laptop to hang indefinitely.  I am unable to change it since Ubuntu previews screen savers, which is the equivalent of running the screen saver.  How do I change my screen saver then?

[08:14] <durando> losher: that is true but i like to leave my system up 24/7 for the convenience factor, but you are semi correct and there is a hack to keep it clear which i have done but its still waisted space and the hack makes errors in terminal

[08:15] <helvete> any guidance would be much appreciated
[08:15] <WeblionX> helvete: Have you tried setting the network to bridged mode in VMware?
[08:15] <canuck1> helvete is 172.16.*.* within the range of local non routable addresses?
[08:15] <dotness> is vmnet0 bridged to eth interface?
[08:16] <losher> durando: the space issue is minimal and given ever-dropping disk prices, hard to get excited about. The privacy issue is another matter entirely.
[08:16] <helvete> WeblionX: no i havent i'll try that now

[08:17] <helvete> thansk for the replies guys
[08:17] <WeblionX> durando: I'm guessing that's what you tried?
[08:17] <WeblionX> durando: I have an idea.
[08:18] <durando> WeblionX: yea i have done that and it leave it grayed out which fixes the privacy issue but i cant remove it from the menu
[08:18] <losher> durando: ah, makes more sense....
[08:18] <WeblionX> Ahh...
[08:18] <canuck1> helvete I haven't worked with OSX enough to give you much help

[08:19] <felip> ok

[08:19] <felip> this is not my channel :-p
[08:19] <felip> see ya
[08:19] <helvete> canuck1: i dont think osx is the issue, i believe its how vmware sets up the connection
[08:19] <libtech> go back to macworld
[08:19] <helvete> man, osx is solid
[08:19] <helvete> its based on a unix system
[08:19] <canuck1> I know that

[08:20] <canuck1> I was like crap man take a chill pill
[08:20] <durando> osx is ok but........its also part of the evil empire

[08:22] <Ziber> This is starting to annoying the shit out of me.
[08:22] <helvete> boohbah it does have to do with this channel as i'm  using it in parallel with ubuntu

[08:22] <helvete> WeblionX: thanks
[08:22] <WeblionX> helvete: You're welcome. :)
[08:23] <Nisstyre56> don't worry Ziber, one thing that you can try is setting up a static ip in Ubuntu
[08:23] <helvete> so i just have one more question if you'll indulge me, i'm trying to set it up so that i can connect to this vm using eclipse, only way i have been able to connect to the vm is by configuring samba, but i dont think thats ment to be entirely nessessary
[08:23] <helvete> is there another way to do it
[08:23] <Ziber> Nisstyre56: already have, no success
[08:23] <Nisstyre56> okay
[08:24] <Nisstyre56> and the sys logs on your router had no errors?
[08:24] <bitwiseshiftleft> question: so i'm setting up a home server.  when i first installed ubuntu, it wasn't connected to the network, so i told it don't configure the network.  now it's connected, how do i bring up the network?
[08:24] <durando> wells guys thanks for the conversation and the help, but i gotta get some sleep have a goodnight
 How can i stop Jaunty from remembering apps from a whole ago and starting them at login
 its very annoying all this stuff poping up and lagging the computer
[08:24] <losher> iMatter: which apps?
[08:24] <Myrtti> Ziber: mind your language though, we've got minors and people from different cultures here
[08:24] <spionspionspions> i would like to have a script on my desktop that does the following: when i execute it, it should log me out of gnome and automatically without password question into openbox, is that possible somehow ?
[08:24] <frogzoo> iMatter: probably you've got "remember session" selected in sys -> prefs -> startup
[08:25] <iMatter> losher, frogzoo i disabled that and it still does it
[08:25] <WeblionX> spionspionspions: Check if openbox has a --replace option.
[08:25] <Myrtti> iMatter: check the system - settings - sessions
[08:25] <Ziber> Myrtti: Sorry :/
[08:25] <frogzoo> iMatter: lol, that sux
[08:25] <Myrtti> iMatter: it might be that you're loading a session from long time ago when you login
[08:25] <iMatter> Myrtti, disabled it a while ago about 5 logins ago.. and its still doing it
[08:25] <spionspionspions> Weblionx : replace? why? i would use that to switch the window manager to openbox wouldnt i?
[08:25] <jason__> bitwiseshiftleft, sudo ifconfig eth0/wlan0/whatever up ?
[08:26] <WeblionX> Isn't that what you're going for?
[08:26] <Myrtti> iMatter: disabled saving a new session yes, but perhaps you are *loading* a saved session
[08:26] <Nisstyre56> post the output of "dmesg | grep eth0"  in pastebin Ziber
[08:26] <spionspionspions> Weblionx: i said that i want to be logged out of gnome
[08:26] <iMatter> Myrtti, how can i fix that..
[08:26] <WeblionX> spionspionspions: Ah, I see, sorry.  A bit late here. :X
[08:27] <spionspionspions> end the gnome session, start the openbox session. :) thx anyway
