[00:00] <HooSIER|KiNG> my desktop is 1280x1024
[00:01] <Nillerz> PROBLEM: On windows I got resolutions up to 2048x1536. This appears to be impossible on linux. Is there a fix?
[00:01] <danbhfive> HooSIER|KiNG: I think you just need to change the order of the Modes listing.  Under the "Screen" section.  The login will use the first, which is 800x600.   Just "cut" the one you want, and "paste" it into the front
[00:01] <brisingrkid> does any1 know how to get ubuntu studio?!
[00:01] <Lecter> yup u can on linux
[00:01] <hyuukai_> ive installed windows first on a hard drive then installed ubuntu on another hard drive when grub come sup it doesnt detect windows on the other drive?

[00:01] <Ketsuban> I have a couple of networking-related problems which may or may not be related. 1) When I browse to a Windows share and open it in Nautilus, it automatically gets mounted and leaves an icon on my desktop. This behaviour was not present in pre-Hardy versions of Ubuntu and is annoying, and I would like to disable it so I can browse shares without mounting. 2) I am unable to browse any shares on our Windows Home Server system -
[00:01] <Ketsuban>  the error message I get from smbtree is "cli_rpc_pipe_open: cli_nt_create failed on pipe \srvsvc to machine HOMESERVER.  Error was NT_STATUS_ACCESS_DENIED".
[00:01] <Lecter> but first u need to figure whats the resolution of the screen itself
[00:01] <trimeta1> brisingrkid: Did you try looking at Ubuntu-Studio's website?
[00:01] <Nillerz> !ohmy
[00:01] <HooSIER|KiNG> ok let me try
[00:01] <compengi> brisingrkid, http://ubuntustudio.org/downloads
[00:01] <nach> hi !
[00:02] <gausie> anyone know how to swap the keymapping for "Page Dn" and "End"?
[00:02] <Lecter> ubntu ultimate edition combined with ubuntu studio by synaptic = best
[00:02] <smelian> Nillerz : the wireless was working good but today its desconnect every like 2 min-5 min
[00:02] <knottingham> My anus is bleeding.
[00:02] <culture> mindvirus: htop maybe
[00:02] <nach> what is the applicatio that launch the ssh server ?
[00:02] <Lecter> cause ultimate edition got a really good login screen
[00:02] <trimeta1> gausie: I know the complicated way to do that, but not the simple, Ubuntu-like way.
[00:02] <Lecter> unique
[00:02] <danbhfive> knottingham: not here
[00:02] <stweston> I need help with my signing of the CoC.
[00:02] <Nillerz> Smelian: Are you using an internal wifi card or a USB dongle?
[00:02] <trimeta1> nach: I think it's /etc/init.d/ssh
[00:02] <compengi> knottingham, do you have anything related to ubuntu?
[00:02] <stweston> I need to sign the CoC, but need help.
[00:03] <Gerinych> snova: am I supposed to boot mac like a linux kernel, or like windows?
[00:03] <compengi> stweston, join #launchpad
[00:03] <gausie> trimeta1, i can handle complicated - what are your suggestions?
[00:03] <Nillerz> !ohmy knottingham
[00:03] <stweston> compengi: thanks
[00:03] <Lecter> hum can anyone help me about this:
[00:03] <compengi> stweston, welcome :)
[00:03] <danbhfive> Ketsuban: for you first problem, you have to just set the share up in fstab, with a different mountpoint than /media
[00:03] <m_newton> !ohmy > knottingham
[00:03] <GoriIIaz> hey people some install anope services for ircd
[00:03] <Lecter> HOW TO MANAGE BOT .DEB AND .RPM PACKAGES UNDER UBUNTU???
[00:03] <GoriIIaz> help pls
[00:03] <Lecter> need pirut & synaptic
[00:03] <trimeta1> gausie: I have the xmodmap program set to run when I start my X server; it executes my .xmodmaprc file, which includes a caps<-->ctrl swap.
[00:04] <compengi> !caps | Lecter
[00:04] <Nillerz> I can't.
[00:04] <smelian> Nillerz: the regular wireless inside my laptop
[00:04] <trimeta1> Lecter: Have you looked into using alien? I think that allows for using .rpms. And .debs are already handled.
[00:04] <snova> Gerinych: no idea. like i said, i've never used mac and am unfamiliar with its boot sequence.
[00:04] <DasEi> !compile|Lecter
[00:04] <trimeta1> Gerinych: Are you trying to set up a dual-boot Hackentosh?
[00:05] <Gerinych> snova: OSx86
[00:05] <gausie> trimeta1, thats pretty hacky i see. ill give it a go thanks :-)
[00:05] <DasEi> !rpm|Lecter
[00:05] <Nillerz> Smelian: Google the model of the wireless card you're using, I'm not too good at anything that isn't EXACTLY the wg111v2. Sorry.
[00:05] <Ketsuban> danbhfive: that's not acceptable - I never had to mess with mounting before, I don't want to now.
[00:05] <Gerinych> snova: not sure whether its Hackintosh or not
[00:05] <snova> Gerinych: all i can suggest is to google it.
[00:05] <DasEi> Lecter:never used bot
[00:05] <nach> oki!
[00:05] <Gerinych> snova: alright
[00:05] <trimeta1> Gerinych: I had a triple-boot thing working here, and I had my OS X partition booting similarly to my Windows partition, yes.
[00:05] <snova> Gerinych: if nothing comes up, chainloading is the only option, but i don't know much about it.
[00:05] <nach> trimeta1:  so there is not need for xinet ?
[00:05] <trimeta1> nach: I'm not sure what xinet is.
[00:05] <Nillerz> Can someone help Smelian with his/her wireless?
[00:06] <Nillerz> I am at a loss.
[00:06] <danbhfive> Ketsuban: well, thats how Ubuntu works now.   When things are automounted, they are usually mounted to /media, which puts them on the desktop.  Don't know what else to say
[00:06] <Lecter> ubottu I know alien, problem is I wanna use pirut and synaptic
[00:06] <knottingham> who the hell ubottu?
[00:06] <dena> can someone help me? I was bridging one of my network connections and set my eth1 device back to static and now DNS isn't working...
[00:06] <Nillerz> !ohmy
[00:06] <Gerinych> trimetal did you have your mac on the same  hard drive as windows/linux?
[00:06] <lacy> lol
[00:06] <smelian> Nillerz: thank you  very much for help or offer ( and thx for helping pple )
[00:06] <Lecter> ubottu thing is I'll have more access to search .deb and .rpm
[00:06] <DasEi> Lecter:ubott.. is a ro-bot
[00:06] <trimeta1> Gerinych: Yes.
[00:06] <Lecter> I dont like .tgz balls
[00:06] <Nillerz> Smelian: No problem, sorry I couldn't help much. :\
[00:07] <Gerinych> trimetal: well, see, i have mac on a separate hard drive that has a weird partition table
[00:07] <Chorca> Hey everyone, quick question, wondering if anyone else is having any issues with their power/brightness/etc status updating slowly.
[00:07] <jvargas> hi
[00:07] <compengi> Lecter, the best choice would be using official .deb packages for ubuntu, converting .rpm packages could mess things
[00:07] <DasEi> Lecter:apt-cache search pak*
[00:07] <smelian> Nillerz : thats enough u offer to help thx again
[00:07] <jvargas> how can I know which package has the file "libkhtmlpart.so" ?
[00:07] <Lecter> prefer things messed
[00:07] <DasEi> Lecter:use synaptic-manager
[00:07] <deepfriedsquirr1> Would using FAT32 on a USB key pose much of a security thread?
[00:07] <trimeta1> Gerinych: Ah. Hmm. If Grub can address the partition, that'd probably be your best bet...I don't know if it can, though.
[00:07] <Lecter> with more things acess
[00:07] <trimeta1> deepfriedsquirr1: What do you mean?
[00:07] <Lecter> would like using synaptic AND pirut
[00:07] <compengi> Lecter, then hard luck :)
[00:08] <nach> does xinet launch the ssh service ?
[00:08] <Lecter> main problem will be compatibility between packages
[00:08] <trimeta1> If you're just using the USB key to store data, FAT32 is probably the best choice.
[00:08] <tyberion> any bash progger here?
[00:08] <trimeta1> nach: What is xinet?
[00:08] <trimeta1> tyberion: I know a little, but not much.
[00:08] <Gerinych> trimetal: i don't know if it's strange or not, but I can see my mac partition in ubuntu
[00:08] <deepfriedsquirr1> trimeta1: Well, I'm wondering if it would be safe to use a USB key regularly for booting since FAT32 is a Windows filesystem without file permissions
[00:08] <geoffrian> IRC sucks.  Too easy to get banned from a room
[00:08] <clever> !boot
[00:08] <clever> !grub
[00:08] <nach> trimeta1: sometjing for the net service but i'm trying to discover it also !
[00:09] <trimeta1> deepfriedsquirr1: Oh, you mean for booting. I think you might need a proper Linux filesystem for that.
[00:09] <compengi> clever, the best way to use the bot for private searches is /msg ubottu <factoid>
[00:09] <jvargas> how can I know which package has the file "libkhtmlpart.so" ?
[00:09] <compengi> clever, priventing missleading and flooding in the channel
[00:09] <trimeta1> nach: I only use Ubuntu on my servers, so I can't easily check for what xinet is and whether it calls ssh.
[00:09] <tyberion> trimetal.. well I wrote a script in order to start a certain program or just switch to the open one... so this is my test.. in my script which is called find_app.sh and $APPLICATION is the current app.. if [ 'ps aux | grep $APPLICATION | grep -v grep' ]; then <THEN THE PROG SHOULD BE RUNNING AND NOT BE STARTED"
[00:09] <clever> compengi: yeah i tried that yesterday and couldnt remember the spelling of the bots name
[00:10] <IntuitiveNipple> jvargas: dpkg-query -S 'libkhtmlpart*'
[00:10] <jvargas> IntuitiveNipple: and if I don't have the package with that file. I need to install a package that includes that file but I don't know what it is
[00:10] <trimeta1> tyberion: I'm not sure if the return status of the final grep is going to do what you want...it might, but you could always just write the script with echo "It's running" at the end to test it.
[00:10] <IntuitiveNipple> jvargas: ahh!
[00:11] <IntuitiveNipple> jvargas: then, use http://packages.ubuntu.com
[00:11] <Nillerz> how do I access network folders from an XP machine?
[00:11] <dena> can someone help me? I was bridging one of my network connections and set my eth1 device back to static and now DNS isn't working...
[00:11] <compengi> Nillerz, places>network
[00:11] <nosto> Anyone able to help me with a keyboard issue in regards to lsinput and it not showing my keyboard as an object even though i can type?
[00:12] <compengi> Nillerz, oh. scratch that
[00:12] <jvargas> ok
[00:12] <tyberion> trimeta: doing that all the time with echos... sstill cant get it to work
[00:13] <compengi> Nillerz, you need to use samba, share what you need and then you can access that shared one from xp's network manager
[00:13] <onx> tyberion, what about pidof?
[00:13] <Daft_Punk> !computers
[00:14] <compengi> @list
[00:14] <tyberion> onx: hmm?
[00:14] <Daft_Punk> why are u doing @list... do you think this is a media server?
[00:15] <onx> tyberion, pidof <process name>, could just check whether it's not empty
[00:17] <kris> anybody: can u help me with firefox?
[00:17] <trimeta> kris: Could you be more specific?
[00:17] <danbhfive> !anybody > kris
[00:17] <Gerinych> anyone else want to take a shot at my problem :)
[00:17] <snova> why are there so many versions of gcc in the repos? i just found out that 4.2, 4.1, and 3.3 are all installed!
[00:17] <snova> and can i safely remove the lesser versions?
[00:18] <danbhfive> Gerinych: please dont ask that type of question.  Just repeat your original question from time to time
[00:18] <trimeta> Gerinych: Have you tried going to Grub's screen and playing around with the tab completion to see if it can see your Mac disc? Actually, do you have any idea how your second HD is partitioned?
[00:18] <snova> kris: what's the problem?
[00:18] <kris> trimeta:  snova: i can put the errot message but i dont want to flood
[00:18] <trimeta> snova: Multiple versions are in the repository in case something only compiles under an older version...not sure why you have them all installed unintentionally, though.
[00:19] <trimeta> !pastebin > kris
[00:19] <Gerinych> trimeta: not sure what you mean about tabs, but I do know how my hd is partitioned
[00:19] <Gerinych> trimeta: it has one hfs+ partition and a mac-native partition table
[00:19] <lanoxx> hi, i want to have a static wlan ip only if i am connected to a certain AP, and dhcp for everything else, how can i configure this, i have already edited the interfaces file, but now i have a static ip nomatter to what AP i connect
[00:19] <danbhfive> snova: go for it.  If there is a package that needs it, the package manager will try to remove more than gcc.  If that happens, just stop the process
[00:20] <snova> trimeta: probably because i installed an older version of a devel library or something like that. now that i'm upgrading and trying not to download any more than i have to, i'm discovering a lot about the packages installed on my system. thanks for the explanation.
[00:20] <trimeta> Gerinych: Basically, if you write your menu.list pretty much correctly (except for the proper HD name), you can go to the Grub screen, choose "Edit entry," edit the line with the HD, and then it'll have tab completion of all the drives and partitions it sees.
[00:20] <snova> danbhfive: unfortunately, it wants to upgrade java before i uninstall 4.1, which counts as a large download :)
[00:21] <danbhfive> snova: mk
[00:21] <Gerinych> trimeta: ah, that. Yeah, i tried doing that, but the error says that the partition table is corrupt, not that it can find a partition
[00:21] <snova> danbhfive: what's that mean???
[00:21] <Gerinych> trimeta: *can't
[00:21] <lanoxx> Gerinych, then check you partition table
[00:21] <trimeta> Gerinych: You said you know how the disk is partitioned...could you elaborate?
[00:22] <lanoxx> fdisk -l /dev/sdx
[00:22] <Yekyaa[Ubuntu]> is there a nickserv here?
[00:22] <Gerinych> trimeta: alright, i'm looking in gparted
[00:23] <trimeta> Yekyaa[Ubuntu]: Yes, type /msg nickserv to ask it questions.
[00:23] <jvargas> i installed kde libs , now I need to make them visible by 'ld'
[00:23] <jvargas> i added a file kde3.conf to ld.so.conf.d directory
[00:23] <jvargas> and ran 'ldconfig'
[00:24] <danbhfive> snova: well, I don't understand your situation.  I would just upgrade java, but it seems like something else is going on?  so I said, mk
[00:24] <jvargas> should my files specified in the directory specified in kde.conf be added to ld cache right?
[00:24] <lanoxx> could anyone atleast point me to some documents explaining how i configure /etc/network/interfaces
[00:24] <Gerinych> trimeta: it goes /dev/sdb1, filesystem: unknown, no mountpoint, size: 31.50 KB; I suspect that's the partition table
[00:24] <snova> danbhfive: i meant that i don't know what 'mk' means.
[00:24] <mEck0> the size chart for clothes on ubuntu store are the waist size right?
[00:25] <Yekyaa> awesome :) thank you
[00:25] <snova> danbhfive: this connection isn't great in the evenings, or so it seems. then again, it wasn't great in the morning, until i rebooted. i might try that in a little bit.
[00:25] <danbhfive> snova: its ok, but with an mmm.  So, mmmmmmmmk.
[00:25] <Yekyaa> i'm registered now lol
[00:25] <cQ> hi
[00:25] <trimeta> Gerinych: That would probably be seen by Grub as (hd1,0)
[00:25] <Yekyaa> i didn't realize that xchat-gnome was the KISS version of xchat
[00:25] <Yekyaa> i thought it was otherway around
[00:25] <trimeta> Actually...hold on.
[00:25] <snova> danbhfive: ah.
[00:25] <Gerinych> trimeta: then it's 128 MB of unallocated space, and /dev/sdb3, filesystem: hfs+, mountpoint: /media/Untitled 1
[00:25] <trimeta> OK, so yea, sdb3 == (hd1,2)
[00:26] <Yekyaa> luckily when i switched to xchat, it auto-imported all my settings for servers and stuff, yay!
[00:26] <Gerinych> trimeta: hold on, let me try that
[00:27] <lanoxx> !de
[00:27] <kris> my problem with recently dowloaded new verion of ubuntu is here pls help if u can http://paste.ubuntu.com/50305/
[00:28] <kris> snova:  trimeta: i put the link
[00:28] <trimeta> kris: This happens when you attempt to start Firefox? I'm not really sure what's happening here.
[00:29] <tico> Hi. I'm making a backup cd. I was wondering if I could extract the image to the hard drive thats going to be restored. Would it work?
[00:29] <kris> trimeta:  when i start surfing the program suddenly stops
[00:29] <geoffrian> Who is in charge of this room?
[00:29] <snova> kris: well, that looks weird. it looks like gtk couldn't handle something firefox did, and closed (or couldn't open) the window.
[00:29] <tico> Using ntfsclone
[00:29] <geoffrian> Who has the ability to ban?
[00:30] <DasEi> geoffrian: join #ops
[00:30] <Gerinych> trimeta: nope, it gives me an error "partition table invalid or corrupt"
[00:30] <Starnestommy> geoffrian: #ubuntu-ops ?
[00:31] <trimeta> Gerinych: Hmm. This is a disc you pulled straight out of a Mac, I'm guessing?
[00:31] <erUSUL> geoffrian: why you ask?
[00:31] <kris> can I uninstall new verion of firefox ?
[00:31] <nutella_> Is there something similiar like streamtuner?
[00:31] <Gerinych> trimeta: no, it's a sata hard drive I bought just for a mac install
[00:31] <kris> the old one worked properly
[00:31] <tico> Hi. I'm making a backup cd. I was wondering if I could extract the image to the hard drive thats going to be restored. Would it work? I'm using ntfsclone
[00:31] <trimeta> Gerinych: You could always try redoing everything...
[00:31] <trimeta> I don't know how far along the install you are.
[00:32] <Gerinych> trimeta: so how should i redo it then?
[00:32] <trimeta> tico: I don't think it's clear what you mean.
[00:32] <trimeta> Gerinych: How much of the OSx86 install have you done?
[00:32] <Gerinych> trimeta: I just installed it and never booted it because hrub won't let me
[00:32] <Gerinych> trimeta: *grub
[00:33] <bunnyto> Hi, i want to install YUM in ubuntu, is that possible?
[00:33] <trimeta> Gerinych: Can I PM you about this? It's not exactly a Ubuntu-related topic.
[00:33] <tico> trimeta: ok so, the image is 9bg and i cant fit it on one cd, so i split it to 2 4500mb. I was wondering if i can extract the image to the hard drive thats going to be restored.
[00:33] <trimeta> tico: What do you mean, extract the image?
[00:33] <kris> what is gtk?
[00:34] <nutella_> <bunnyto:
[00:34] <kris> ?????
[00:34] <nutella_> bunnyto: why would you do that?
[00:34] <tico> trimeta: the image is inside a tar .gz file
[00:34] <kris> hmmmm
[00:34] <bunnyto> nutella_: yum is better than apt
[00:35] <tico> trimeta: i split it so it can fit on the dvd
[00:35] <trimeta> tico: How did you split it, using some feature of tar?
[00:35] <tico> trimeta: ntfsclone -s -o - /dev/sda1   | gzip | split -b 1000m - /tmp/server/master-sda1.img.gz_ for example
[00:36] <wng-> Anyone here running WoW under wine with fglrx drivers?
[00:36] <erUSUL> tico: if it is in another partition ?
[00:36] <nutella_> bunnyto: What is better on youm for example? I don't think that is possible to use yum...but I'm not sure about it
[00:36] <IntuitiveNipple> bunnyto: install Fedora, then the package manager will match the distro.
[00:36] <tico> erUSUL: Im making a boot cd to restore an image of the drive. If i have the image in a gz, so it fits on the dvd, where can I extract it to so i can use the image to restore it.
[00:37] <trimeta> tico: If split is just returning the first N bytes, then you should be able to join by using cat.
[00:37] <erUSUL> tico: it has to be a different hard drive/partition than the one you are restoring
[00:37] <tico> erUSUL: ok, thanks.

[00:38] <trimeta> !hi
[00:39] <pk1122> something is conflicting with the sound on ubuntu 8.04 on my laptop sometimes i can listen the sound and then after a while the sound stops working, then i need to restart the computer to listen the music.
[00:39] <jamix> hello everyone! has somebody passed the examination CISA?
[00:39] <jrib> pk1122: probably flash or wine
[00:40] <jrib> jamix: we like to keep this channel dedicated to ubuntu support only since it is so busy.  Mind moving your discussion over to #ubuntu-offtopic?
[00:40] <bunnyto> pk1122: alsaconf
[00:40] <jamix> hello!
[00:40] <pk1122> bunnyto, ok
[00:41] <pk1122> bunnyto, that command doesnt exist
[00:41] <bunnyto> apt-get install alsa
[00:41] <bunnyto> yum install alsa
[00:41] <bunnyto> yum remove aptitude
[00:42] <jrib> bunnyto: stop giving silly advice please.  You shouldn't be using yum on ubuntu
[00:42] <pk1122> bunnyto, newest version is already installed
[00:42] <DasEi> pk1122:use synaptic or apt-cache search alsa*  for a specific packet
[00:42] <trimeta> bunnyto: To be honest, the main reason to use a distro is because you like its package manager. If you prefer yum to apt, you should use a distro based on yum.
[00:43] <pk1122> DasEi, which packet you talking about ?
[00:43] <wng-> Anyone here running WoW under wine with fglrx drivers? I am having trouble with the textrues on the ground
[00:43] <bunnyto> i want to use Yum in Ubuntu...
[00:43] <jrib> bunnyto: use apt or one of its frontends
[00:43] <trimeta> bunnyto: What do you like about Ubuntu, that Fedora doesn't have?
[00:43] <jrib> !apt > bunnyto
[00:43] <pk1122> bunnyto, now its start working i did alsa reload
[00:43] <DasEi> pk1122:I was watching u trying to install alsa
[00:43] <bunnyto> pk1122: you welcome
[00:44] <pk1122> bunnyto, thanks

[00:47] <kimus> hi, I upgrade to Intrepid but NetworkManager does not connect. dhclient eth0 works fine
[00:47] <jrib> kimus: read the last entry in the /topic
[00:47] <kris> what shoul I do with system "hang-ons " ?
[00:47] <kimus> jrib: right... no one answers there... but ok.... :-S
[00:48] <DasEi> bartb : did it ?
[00:48] <bartb> it mounted both partitions after I did that. will that fix the boot up problem?
[00:48] <mEck0> have someone here taken the "ubuntu desktop training" course? do you get a certificate after finished and not fail?
[00:49] <DasEi> bartb : prob is the sequenz, which sometimes bugs the usb controller, so you gotta reload, less probs with uuids in fstab
[00:49] <bunnyto> mEck0: certification to use UBUNTU??? HAHAHAH
[00:50] <mEck0> bunnyto: öhh, no, not for using it...
[00:50] <bunnyto> mEck0: its like get a certification for eating mcdonalds, using, installing... same
[00:50] <bartb> Thanks, I'll reboot to see
[00:50] <mEck0> bunnyto: okay
[00:52] <jrib> bunnyto: when you answer, try to actually be helpful
[00:52] <jrib> mEck0: are you talking about http://www.ubuntu.com/news/online-desktop-training?
[00:52] <damaranzig> roukoun: dcpp install a success :D
[00:52] <damaranzig> roukoun: thankz
[00:53] <aXeus> Does Ubuntu have an FTP server package?
[00:53] <churnd> aXeus: try vsftp
[00:53] <jrib> !ftp | aXeus
[00:53] <bunnyto> aXeus: ftpzilla
[00:53] <jrib> !ftpd | aXeus
[00:53] <aXeus> jrib: Thanks.
[00:54] <ryan__> What is this error mean: Unable to find a valid framebuffer device
[00:54] <kris> may be flash crashing my firefox?
[00:54] <kris> is flash forbidden?
[00:54] <kris> or restricted?
[00:54] <churnd> ryan__: means your graphics card isn't configured properly
[00:55] <Vezir> hey why in kde4 do i only get system sounds
[00:55] <Vezir> no other sound
[00:55] <ryan__> churnd: thank you. Can you point me in the right direction, so I can get it configured properly.
[00:55] <damaranzig> roukoun: when i plug my bluetooth dongle nothing happens
[00:56] <jrib> kris: yeah, there's an issue with flash and libflashsupport causing the browser to crash
[00:56] <churnd> ryan__: i can try.  which version of ubuntu?  what kind of graphics card?  how did you try to configure it?
[00:56] <damaranzig> does ubuntu support SE k500i ??? which package to install ?
[00:56] <jamix> helllo everyone ! has someone passed CISA?
[00:57] <bunnyto> damaranzig: SE k500 is obsolete... use SEk700
[00:57] <DasEi> !ot>jamix
[00:57] <ryan__> churnd: I tried to config the /etc/X11/xorg.conf, have latest version of Ubuntu Hardy Gnome, and the graphics card is a nvidia e-GeForce 7200 GS
[00:58] <jrib> !away > funkyHat|off
[00:58] <hikenboot> anyone know anything about the xen python packages?
[00:58] <damaranzig> roukoun: r u talking about a package or the actual mobile phone :)
[00:58] <jrib> hikenboot: best to just ask the channel your question
[00:59] <hikenboot> ok ...I am looking to find out if the xen python packages have been minimized to only the libaries used by xen
[00:59] <damaranzig> bunnyto: i need a package to make ubuntu recognise se k500i
[01:00] <churnd> ryan__: hard to say without looking at the xorg.conf.  how did you install the nvidia driver?
[01:00] <schortsircut> hello, i have a question
[01:00] <damaranzig> bunnyto: i also need a package to enable ubuntu recognise a bluetooth dongle
[01:01] <zetheroo> I am in Ubuntu 8.04.1 and am trying to get Flash working in Firefox 3
[01:01] <jrib> zetheroo: visit http://badgerbadgerbadger.com and click on the yellow bar at the top
[01:01] <ryan__> churnd: well I can send you the config file. Just let me know how you would like it sent.  As for the driver, after installing the graphics card a pop-up in Ubuntu's panel appeared.  Then I just followed the install steps.
[01:01] <schortsircut> are there certain wireless cards that Ubuntu 8.04.1 is incompatible with?
[01:01] <zetheroo> I need some help as it seems that the automatic install of Adobe Flash did not work
[01:02] <IntuitiveNipple> dam0: do  "hcitool dev" that should report the Bluetooth devices
[01:02] <jrib> zetheroo: be more descriptive than "did not work"
[01:02] <rmf_> i have two network interfaces (eth0 and eth1) the first goes to a wrt54gl which is my internal network (gw <IP_ADDRESS>) and connects to comcast - the second (eth1) goes directly to a verizon modem/router (gw <IP_ADDRESS>) - how do set eth1 as the default route
[01:03] <zetheroo> jrib: I installed it and restarted FF and still could not view flash content ... I tried to reinstall the plugin through FF and it said that it was already installed
[01:03] <schortsircut> do marvell wireless cards not work with ubuntu?
[01:03] <jrib> zetheroo: pastebin the contents of the page you get when you type "about:plugins" in your address bar
[01:04] <schortsircut> i was testing it on the live cd, and was unable to even see my network--i went through the troubleshooting stuff and all seems to be in order
[01:04] <jrib> !wifi > schortsircut
[01:04] <jrib> schortsircut: see if you can find some info there
[01:05] <SherlawkDragon> I have a program that I cannot kill
[01:05] <SherlawkDragon> what do I do?
[01:05] <jrib> SherlawkDragon: what program?   I had to remove it and reinstall it  .... thanks
[01:08] <SherlawkDragon> how often do you actually use 100% of the processor
[01:08] <r_001> can I add some packages to Ubuntu to make it a RouterOS (Like mikrotik)
[01:08] <r_001> ?
[01:08] <jrib> SherlawkDragon: all the time.  Your hardware shouldn't have a problem with it
[01:09] <MaNuElSUX> alguien habla espaol
[01:09] <SherlawkDragon> not my crappy hardware...
[01:09] <jrib> !es | MaNuElSUX
[01:09] <schortsircut> jrib: ok thnx. the only options i saw on it were "roaming mode (wired connection)" or "manual", which just brought up the network manager
[01:09] <amdpox> r_001, it's not really the right distro for the job
[01:09] <MaNuElSUX> oooks
[01:09] <schortsircut> jrib: i'll try again tho
[01:09] <jrib> schortsircut: nothing about your particular card?
[01:09] <r_001> amdpox: what's your advice ?
[01:09] <lanoxx> how do i set powersave options in kubuntu?
[01:10] <amdpox> I don't have any suggestions as I haven't set up a custom router before, but I know there are much more lightweight distros out there designed for it
[01:10] <stickboy> anyone know of any good ubuntu friendly bluetooth mice?
[01:11] <r_001> amdpox: do you have any idea about creating PPPoE server on Ubuntu server edition ?

[01:11] <hubar> hmm, anyone can show me a tutorial how to set up the spinning cube thing under ubuntu8.04?
[01:12] <gaintsura> hey... I've noticed recently that everytime I sudo... I get this;;;; sudo: unable to resolve host systemx.dev
[01:12] <gaintsura> why?
[01:12] <kb9rlf> d
[01:12] <amdpox> hubar, enable the effects in preferences -> appearance
[01:13] <JunTa1> what file keeps the bell-style options? I want to be able to keep the system bell off
[01:13] <amdpox> then install simple-ccsm with apt and use that to configure
[01:14] <JunTa1> amdpox:  was that aimed at me?
[01:14] <schortsircut> jrib:dont think so.....still checking...... i dont see it in the list, my ethernet card is a Marvell Yukon 88E8039 PCI-E, my wireless is Realtek RTL8187B......i dont see anything about it in the wiki, still checking though
[01:15] <bensonk> I'm trying to install ubuntu-eee on an Eee PC 1000.  I've built a bootable SD card out of the Ubuntu-Eee iso, but when I try to boot, it goes through a graphical boot-up, and then drops to a console without any sort of prompt.
[01:15] <bensonk> Is there some way to make the boot sequence more verbose so I can see what's breaking?
[01:15] <amdpox> JunTa1, no, sorry
[01:16] <schortsircut> jrib: never mind, i found something, reading now
[01:16] <bensonk> or, alternately, is there some sort of "no graphics" option?
[01:16] <Brom> Has anyone used Glest?
[01:16] <amdpox> bensonk, does ubuntu-eee support the 1000/901 now?
[01:16] <amdpox> last time I knew it was for 7/900 only
[01:16] <bensonk> amdpox: I believe so, but maybe I should check again.
[01:16] <Hexus> so... I dont suppose anyone is round here is good with soundcards?

[01:17] <MindVirus> Hello. I've been trying to get a new login in a new window. It's telling me my x server is malconfigured.
[01:17] <MindVirus> *misconfigured.
[01:18] <Elda> Hexus what kind of troubles may you be having? :>
[01:18] <nandemonai> Anyone know the debug option for firefox? It's not loading since the latest update and nothing is coming up in term..
[01:18] <phoenixz> Hi there, is there a way to force CLOSE_WAIT connections to close? maybe by a kernel confriguration setting?
[01:18] <bethlynn> hi folks
[01:18] <amdpox> bensonk, does it have a menu when it first boots like the ubuntu livecd?
[01:18] <Hexus> Elda:  my ISA card isnt being detected.   DasEi was helping me before http://paste.ubuntu.com
[01:18] <Guest76492> hi
[01:18] <bensonk> amdpox: yes, it does.
[01:19] <IntuitiveNipple> nandemonai: have you tried -safe-mode  ?
 what about the v470?
[01:19] <IntuitiveNipple> stickboy: I don't know... I've been using the v270 and it has been perfect
[01:19] <schortsircut> jrib:ummmmm.......it looks like coverage doesnt work for WPA yet, so i guess that could be why....still need to try a few things tho
[01:19] <IntuitiveNipple> stickboy: been used hard for over a year and still going strong
[01:19] <bensonk> amdpox: it presents the pretty graphical menu with all the options, and then when I select an option, it displays the ubuntu logo with a progress bar that has a bouncing back and forth orange box.
[01:19] <Elda> Hexus no idea then as I'm not much versed with that :>
[01:19] <Guest76492> any have a ip address of a public proxy?
 is it okay for gaming? i mainly need it because my trackball mouse is impossible to use in cod4
[01:20] <bensonk> That finishes, and then there's just a black screen with a blinking cursor.
[01:20] <bethlynn> I'm looking for maco. If someone sees her, tell her that I'm on irc server:thelinuxlink.net #techshow talking about the ohio linuxfest
[01:20] <Elda> Im still trying to figure out why my headphone slots dont work on my laptop :>
[01:20] <IntuitiveNipple> stickboy: I have no idea... what is "gaming" ?
[01:20] <amdpox> bensonk, and then it dropped to a unix login, or a dead console?
[01:20] <Hexus> Elda: ah well I guess its back to the faqs for me then.  Thanks
[01:20] <Elda> Sorry :(
[01:20] <bensonk> amdpox: dead console.
 hmm. seems only way to buy is used..
[01:21] <Elda> The most I would recommend is trying a dsdt patch since that is what fixed sound for me when I was using 7.04
[01:21] <Morgemil> hi everyone, does someone here have a sounblaster audigy-se running in ubuntu hardy heron?
[01:21] <Hexus> where can I get it?
[01:21] <IntuitiveNipple> stickboy: well if the v470 is based on it, and is Bluetooth, it might be just as good.
[01:21] <JunTa1> "Could not open .rpm. archive type not supported"??
[01:21] <IntuitiveNipple> stickboy: I like the v270 because of its size and lightness.
[01:22] <gaintsura> how do I work with cron to setup a cron job?
[01:22] <amdpox> bensonk, try "check CD for defects"
 http://www.logitech.com/index.cfm/mice_pointers/mice/devices/3287&cl=us,en
[01:23] <pac1> how can I list the ids of all partitions on a disk?
[01:23] <r_001> how can i setup my ubuntu machine as a router ?
[01:24] <bensonk> amdpox: that won't work, on account of me modifying isolinux -> syslinux
[01:24] <StephenF> If i plug in a USB HD and it is not automatically mounted, how I I check if the system has even detected the drive?
[01:24] <gaintsura> r_001: look into switching to ipcop or something of the sort
[01:24] <amdpox> bensonk, right
[01:24] <bensonk> amdpox: I had to do some changes because I'm using an SD card with data on it rather than a CD.  The Eee doesn't have a CD drive.
[01:24] <r_001> do you mean ipcop package ?
[01:24] <amdpox> bensonk, I don't know then
[01:25] <bensonk> Okay.
[01:25] <amdpox> I used a USB cd drive with 8.04 generic to do my 1000H, worked fine
[01:25] <bensonk> Well, maybe I'll just do a gentoo install.  :-)
[01:25] <bensonk> I'm more familiar with gentoo.
[01:25] <schortsircut> jrib: thnx for the helo
[01:25] <schortsircut> *help
[01:25] <bensonk> you didn't use the Eee version of ubuntu?
[01:25] <amdpox> have fun compiling that elitism ;)
[01:25] <gaintsura> r_001: no, its a distro
[01:25] <r_001> gaintsura: do you main ipcop firewal package
[01:25] <gaintsura> yes
[01:25] <gaintsura> but its not a package
[01:25] <gaintsura> its a distro/livecd
[01:25] <r_001> ipcop destriptution !!?
[01:26] <amdpox> bensonk, I got it a couple of months ago, it wasn't supported by any specialised versions then
[01:26] <jrib> schortsircut: no problem, didn't do much :)
[01:26] <amdpox> but there's a handy custom kernel at array.org/ubuntu with drivers
[01:26] <r_001> gaintsura: ahaaaa
[01:26] <gaintsura> r_001: ^_^
[01:26] <gaintsura> could someone tell me how to setup a cron job?
[01:26] <bensonk> amdpox: gotcha
[01:26] <jrib> !cron > gaintsura
[01:27] <r_001> gaintsura: does it look like mikrotik
[01:27] <bensonk> amdpox: That's cool.  I might try a generic livecd and see if that works.
[01:27] <gaintsura> thanks jrib
[01:27] <gaintsura> r_001: dunno
[01:27] <bensonk> amdpox: thanks for your help. :-)
[01:27] <r_001> gaintsura: thanks :)

[01:27] <amdpox> bensonk, no problem :)
[01:28] <hvgotcodes> hey what is the graphical tool used to administer nvidia cards?
[01:28] <Elda> What do you mean?
[01:28] <jrib> hvgotcodes: nvidia-settings?
[01:29] <hvgotcodes> jrib -- its a tool that tells you the drive version, the temp of the card, etc....
[01:29] <hvgotcodes> is that it?
[01:29] <jrib> hvgotcodes: yeah
[01:29] <Flare183> !binarydriver | hvgotcodes (this might help, I don't know)
[01:30] <hvgotcodes> thanx
[01:30] <Flare183> It should help
[01:32] <JunTa1> why doesn't ubuntu package search page have adobe flash player? neeed it for viewing youtube
[01:32] <Protista> join irc.travian.org
[01:32] <jrib> JunTa1: because youtube's page circumvents it.  Go to a regular page like http://badgerbadgerbadger.com and it will work
[01:33] <hvgotcodes> is there a sensors plugin for gnome-panel or gkrellm that will monitor the nvidia temp?
[01:33] <Flare183> ...
[01:34] <JunTa1> jrib: what do you mean? i can't view youtube videos?
[01:34] <jrib> JunTa1: no.  Just visit http://badgerbadgerbadger.com and click the yellow bar at the top
[01:34] <Flare183> !youtube videos | JunTa1
[01:35] <amdpox> JunTa1, it's called flashplugin-nonfree
[01:35] <zigzags> wow ubuntu sucks
[01:36] <zigzags> instead of errors, things just dont happen
[01:36] <jrib> zigzags: do you have a support question or just trolling today?
[01:36] <zigzags> i have to restart my comp, so im raging for a second
[01:36] <rickstar> ok
[01:36] <zigzags> aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaarrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr ok bye
[01:36] <jrib> zigzags: well keep it related to support here
[01:37] <rickstar> to get conky running... go through terminal... now when i close terminal window, conky closes
[01:37] <amdpox> #ubuntu-bashing is good
[01:37] <zigzags> gksu conky
[01:37] <rickstar> thanks
[01:37] <Derrike> Pardon, but I'm wondering about the documentation provided for installing via USB. I've been in a pit using the two methods provided. (Live CD via USB is slow, and usually freezes; alternate just doesn't work the way everyone is saying it should.)
[01:37] <jrib> rickstar: don't do that.
[01:37] <amdpox> use the alt-f2 run dialog
[01:37] <amdpox> or detach it with "conky &"
[01:37] <rpeck> isn't VLC suppose to be able to open .avi files?
[01:37] <amdpox> rpeck, .avi is a container
[01:38] <amdpox> VLC will play most of the codecs it can contain
[01:38] <jert> ?
[01:38] <rpeck> Well then how do I get VLC to play .avi files?
[01:38] <rickstar> alt-f2 no conky
[01:38] <amdpox> rpeck, what codec is it?
[01:39] <hvgotcodes> rickstar type nohup conky &
[01:39] <rpeck> video/x-msvideo?
[01:39] <rpeck> That is what it says the mime type is.
[01:39] <jrib> rickstar:
[01:39] <jrib> !pm | rickstar
[01:40] <rickstar> !pm | jrib
[01:40] <rickstar> haha
[01:40] <rickstar> ill just go the old way
[01:40] <jrib> rickstar: people gave you about 3 different suggestions, so you should say which one you tried and what happened....
[01:41] <rpeck> amdpox is it unplayable for me or do I need to install a certain package?
[01:42] <amdpox> If it won't play in VLC, you can't make VLC play it
[01:42] <amdpox> try totem
[01:42] <Derrike> I don't want to repeat myself but I think it got lost in a wave of join/parts.
[01:43] <Derrike> Pardon, but I'm wondering about the documentation provided for installing via USB. I've been in a pit using the two methods provided. (Live CD via USB is slow, and usually freezes; alternate just doesn't work the way everyone is saying it should.)
[01:43] <rickstar> ok tried all those
[01:43] <Elda> !codecs | rpeck
[01:43] <rpeck> Thanks amdpox
[01:43] <rickstar> when i close terminal conky exits
[01:43] <Elda> That might help you out :>
[01:43] <Flare183> !usb | Derrike
[01:43] <jrib> rickstar: specifics and details.
[01:43]  * bruenig has parts and joins turned off
[01:43] <zigzags> so every once in a while, none of my music players will play any music.  clickin 'play' just does nothin at all.  no errors or anything, just....nothing
[01:44] <jrib> rickstar: tell us ONE thing you tried exactly
[01:44] <JunTa1> how do
[01:44] <zigzags> it happens with any file, local or on my network
[01:44] <rickstar> $conky
[01:44] <rickstar> close terminal
[01:44] <rickstar> it closes
[01:44] <rickstar> conky also
[01:44] <S3lo> Derrike: i tried Unetbootin ( http://lubi.sourceforge.net/unetbootin.html ) to create my USB installer, might help
[01:44] <JunTa1> woops....whats the command to check what version or distro you have ?
[01:44] <jrib> rickstar: that wasn't a suggestion.  What else did you try? Keep it on one line please
[01:44] <Flare183> JunTa1: uname -a
[01:45] <zigzags> anyone know why the media players will sometimes randomly not allow music to be played????/
[01:45] <bruenig> it isn't random
[01:45] <bruenig> thus your question is poor
[01:45] <rickstar> the alt-f2 method ... conky doesnt run...
[01:45] <Derrike> S3lo: Would it use the graphical or command-line install?
[01:45] <jrib> zigzags: probably flash or wine hogging the sound card.  Kill them and do 'sudo /etc/init.d/pulseaudio restart'
[01:45] <jrib> rickstar: nohup conky
[01:46] <rickstar> jrib: also tried nohup conky
[01:46] <zigzags> hmmm neither flash nor wine were open either times
[01:46] <jrib> rickstar: and?
[01:46] <rickstar> jrib: none work
[01:46] <zigzags> i will try that next time it stops working
[01:46] <flithm> hey everyone... my machine crashed, and now when I log into gnome I don't see any panels... anyone know how I can get them back?
[01:46] <jrib> rickstar: did conky not start?
[01:46] <zigzags> so bruenig, if its not random what causes it, cuz ya seem to know
[01:46] <rickstar> jrib: yes.. segmentation fault
[01:46] <bruenig> zigzags: depends
[01:46] <JunTa1> Flare183: that doesn't give if its hardy or what distro
[01:47] <zigzags> on...........
[01:47] <jrib> rickstar: and it runs fine with just conky?
[01:47] <Flare183> JunTa1: lsb_release -a
[01:47] <bruenig> zigzags: you haven't even described your situation
[01:47] <trimeta> JunTa1: You could also check your /etc/apt/sources.list and see which you're using.
[01:47] <bruenig> I assure you however, there is no random number generator in the program that causes it to periodically skip things
[01:47] <zigzags> mm poor answer, sorry
[01:47] <JunTa1> Flare183: thx
[01:47] <templaedhel> I just installed the firefox update and now firefox is giving me errors when I use the adress or search bar
[01:48] <rickstar> jrib: now i get segmentation fault on regular $conky
[01:48] <jrib> rickstar: you need to sort that out.  See if there are any running instances of conky (ps -ef | grep conky)
[01:49] <Flare183> JunTa1: np
[01:49] <rickstar> jrib: also did $killall conky
[01:49] <jrib> rickstar: ok, but that's not my question

[01:52] <rickstar> jrib: i did happen to before i saw don't
[01:53] <kwyjibo> why did updating firefox/flash from the notification icon break them? :< i can't view any flash video sites anymore. they just hang

[01:59] <belkinhelp2> quick question about back ups....is it possible using dd to back up my entire drive to another PC on the same network?
[01:59] <Commie_Cary> :\
[01:59] <snova> belkinhelp2: i don't think dd can operate over a network.
[01:59] <belkinhelp2> and of course the next question...how would i recover it once ive replaced the drive?
[01:59] <snova> belkinhelp2: but there might be a way to do it.
[02:00] <rickstar> jrib:no
[02:00] <belkinhelp2> snova....what would you suggest?
[02:00] <jrib> rickstar: move your ~/.conkyrc back and comment parts to figure out what is causing it
[02:00]  * templaedhel wonders if anyone can help with the firefox problem??
[02:01] <snova> belkinhelp2: dunno. i just copy stuff over to an external hd, but i have no idea how to do over a network
[02:01] <kwyjibo> why did updating firefox/flash from the notification icon break them? :< i can't view any flash video sites anymore. they just hang
[02:01] <snova> belkinhelp2: i think rsync is designed for this purpose- for incrementally copying files over a network
[02:01] <Spragie> Hey, i just tried to reinstall heron over an existing copy, used the "use entire disk" option, once i installed it, it went to the bootloader and chose the )all options( and it stated that the file did not exist (not exact wording but close enough), tried reinstallling multiple times, same thing ? what am i doing wrong ?
[02:01] <belkinhelp2> snova....i suppose i could use dd, create the image on the local drive and the move it over the network manully
[02:02] <snova> belkinhelp2: there are packages expressly for the purpose of backups, and i'm sure plenty of them work over a network.
[02:02] <snova> belkinhelp2: i just don't know what any of them are called.
[02:02] <belkinhelp2> snova...i want a complete image all at once. I have to set up a dual boot on this machine and dont want to get rid of linux
[02:02] <snova> belkinhelp2: does it really have to be a disk image?
[02:02] <belkinhelp2> snova...k, ill look around.
[02:02] <asimplied> I have two problems: First, when I play movie files (i.e. youtube) in firefox, there is no sound.  This is a problem that I had fixed previously, but has since resurfaced--I believe the resurrection was caused by firefox updating; however, the previous method I used to fix this problem--install latest flashplayer--is not working.  The second problem is that I cannot burn cd or dvd's.  I have gone through several forums and it seems that this is a
[02:03] <belkinhelp2> snova...doesnt have to be an image....just thought that would be the easiest way to recover if i screw up the dual boot install
[02:03] <Spragie> Hey, i just tried to reinstall heron over an existing copy, used the "use entire disk" option, once i installed it, it went to the bootloader and chose the )all options( and it stated that the file did not exist (not exact wording but close enough), tried reinstallling multiple times, same thing ? what am i doing wrong ? anyone have any suggestions? !
[02:03] <snova> question- i just found that in the process of updating, i have two kernels. there shouldn't be any problem removing the unused one, right?
[02:03] <snova> belkinhelp2: not necessarily.
[02:03] <kwyjibo> asimplied: i am having the exact same problem as of the latest firefox update
[02:03] <onx> belkinhelp2, dd if=<stuff> | gzip -c | ssh user@host "cat > <stuffoutput>.gz"
[02:03] <kwyjibo> asimplied: are your flash videos hanging after 2 seconds, too?
[02:03] <asimplied> kwyjibo. any idea how to fix?
[02:03] <belkinhelp2> snova...im new to linux...for windows ive always used ghost image or acronis
[02:03] <kwyjibo> asimplied: no. i keep asking :<
[02:03] <xim_> anyone know what would cause nautilus to crash in a particular directory full of videos on an NTFS files system when viewing in icon mode?
[02:04] <Spragie> Hey, i just tried to reinstall heron over an existing copy, used the "use entire disk" option, once i installed it, it went to the bootloader and chose the )all options( and it stated that the file did not exist (not exact wording but close enough), tried reinstallling multiple times, same thing ? what am i doing wrong ? anyone have any suggestions? !
[02:04] <snova> belkinhelp2: onx appears to be a wizard at this stuff. he even compressed it for you...
[02:04] <asimplied> umm, I  don't know, I usually do not wait until the end of the video--frustration, etc.
[02:04] <caio> I need to access a computer with Remote Desktop, but the computer is on other network, without a physical ip address, how can I do this?
[02:04] <snova> belkinhelp2: sorry, i have to go now.
[02:04] <pedro-orange> belkinhelp2: You can backup essential files, but system files would presumably be locked. If you're installing Windows after a linux install, you can (Vista may be an issue) - there is a handy guide to restoring the GRUB after a Windows install on the Ubuntu wiki.
[02:04] <belkinhelp2> onx...thanks
[02:04] <kwyjibo> asimplied: try playing any flash video. they will hang after 2 seconds
[02:04] <onx> snova, actually i just needed to do the same thing recently. still learning pipe magic :p
[02:05] <asimplied> kwyjibo, k hold on
[02:05] <Aaqil> Hi what is difference between ubuntu server edition and other ubuntu ?
[02:05] <belkinhelp2> onx....not that i will need it, but if i do, how do i get it back.  Use the live CD?
[02:05] <templaedhel> Aaqil: server edition has not gui like gnome or kde
[02:06] <JunTa1> halt
[02:06] <pedro-orange> caio: Phsyical IP? What do you mean by this? IP is a logical address. A MAC address is a physical address.
[02:06] <rickstar> jrib: fixed
[02:06] <belkinhelp2> onx.....doh!  same command without compression?
[02:06] <rickstar> jrib: made new .conkyrc
[02:07] <hwolff> what is the right channel to inquire about wifi problems?
[02:07] <onx> belkinhelp2, you mean restoring your disk from the image?
[02:07] <belkinhelp2> onx....yes
[02:07] <pedro-orange> hwolff: whats your issue?
[02:07] <jrib> rickstar: great
[02:07] <rickstar> jrib: thanks for the help
[02:07] <hwolff> my partner has a toshiba tecra notebook, running kubuntu. She get's wifi, but after a while the wifi breaks down
[02:08] <afallenhope> is there a way of getting vncviewer to listen on a specific port? because I can't get it to listen on 5900
[02:08] <hwolff> Win works fine, so I guess it's not the hardware
[02:08] <belkinhelp2> onx...i vaquely remember reading about booting over networks and copying entire OSs for thin clients...would this be similar?
[02:08] <templaedhel> firefox is driving me nuts
[02:08] <pedro-orange> hwolff: Whats the NIC make? Do a lshw -C network in terminal & stick it in the pastebin. Link us when you're done.
[02:08] <kwyjibo> templaedhel: ?
[02:09] <asimplied> kwyjibo, I did not notice any hang; but, definitely no sound...which is really annoying.
[02:09] <caio> pedro-orange, sorry, I cant access because the only IP that I have is 192.168.. an internal IP, and not the machine that I want.
[02:09] <tico> Do you think if I compress a 8.3gb image with gzip -c it will fit on a 4.7gb dvd?
[02:09] <daklan_cls> afallenhope: you don't make vncviewer to listen to a particular port. you make it connect to a particular port. or do you mean vncserver?
[02:09] <kwyjibo> asimplied: ah. mine freezes. and it's only from updating today
[02:09] <pedro-orange> caio: Are you in the same subnet? What is the network setup?
[02:10] <afallenhope> daklan_cls, I make it listen. it's called REVERSE vnc. vncviewser -listen
[02:10] <afallenhope> vncviewer**
[02:10] <asimplied> hmm...well, it is possible that mine will start doing that too.  I had this problem with the sound before, fixed it, updated ffox, and problem is back.  how long have you been in here looking for help?
[02:10] <onx> belkinhelp2, let me think about how to do it with pipe magic, but the more comfortable solution is probably using a locally mounted network share (nfs/smb) and using a tool like partimage
[02:10] <kwyjibo> asimplied: about half an hour
[02:10] <caio> reverse vnc!
[02:11] <afallenhope> caio, you are correct
[02:11] <templaedhel> kwyjibo: I installed the update it said I should (ubuntu that is) and now when I use the url or search bar it gives me errors
[02:11] <asimplied> kwyjibo: and you just updated firefox today?
[02:11] <kwyjibo> asimplied: yes
[02:11] <kwyjibo> asimplied: i thought these things were tested before going into the repositories
[02:12] <asimplied> kwyjibo: yeah, me too
[02:12] <pedro-orange> asimplied: do u have any other applications opening using sound card output?   But, when I tried to watch a video my friend sent, no work.
[02:13] <belkinhelp2> onx....if i pm you my email address, could you send me a solution once you think of it?
[02:13] <templaedhel> you know its bad when I have to use the ie for linux app to browse the web on ubuntu
[02:13] <belkinhelp2> onx....im new to linux but not to networking
[02:13] <dave___> It's a very common adapter with a huge pain in the ass involved in getting it going
[02:13] <daklan_cls> afallenhope: reverse vnc only works if you have a vncserver. vncviewer -listen waits for the server to initiate the request.
[02:13] <asimplied> templaedhel: is your sound working on firefox?
[02:14] <pedro-orange> asimplied: try restarting pulseaudio
[02:14] <templaedhel> asimplied: just a sec. but first close all your other apps and then restart firefox
[02:14] <templaedhel> now it won't even open!
[02:15] <asimplied> pedro-orange: ok,
[02:15] <kwyjibo> can someone tell me why today's firefox/flash update causes flash videos to freeze after 2 seconds?
[02:15] <afallenhope> daklan_cls, I know this. you're not listening to the question. like many people. I asked how to get it to listen on a CUSTOM PORT
[02:16] <afallenhope> daklan_cls, not the SERVER because I don't want the server.. but the CLIENT
[02:16] <daklan_cls> afallenhope: good luck to you then
[02:16] <templaedhel> kwyjibo: I'm guessin for the same reason it won't open for me
[02:17] <kwyjibo> dunno templaedhel
[02:17] <templaedhel> what are some alternatives for firefox till I can get it workin?
[02:18] <pedro-orange> templaedhel: Opera? There are loads of browsers about.  Where can I get more voices for espeak?
[02:19] <loquitus_of_borg> I want nice girlie ones
[02:19] <Derrike> uh
[02:19] <racerx> anyone knows how to install or extract a packaged file with a '.bundle' extension?
[02:19] <drucken> its says command not found
[02:19] <Derrike> that's a wee bit odd, if I might add.
[02:19] <pedro-orange> drucken: You may need to apt-get it
[02:20] <templaedhel> pedro-orange: I 4get
[02:20] <templaedhel> I'll tell you once I get firefox working agin
[02:20] <drucken> apt-get nvidia-settings???
[02:20] <pedro-orange> templaedhel: ubuntu-restricted-extras? flashplugin-nonfree?
[02:20] <pedro-orange> drucken: apt-get install nvidia-settings
[02:21] <racerx> what is a .bundle file and how to extract it, anyone?
[02:21] <templaedhel> okay I got epiphany
[02:22] <KDOC> Can someone tell me how to download internet explorer for ubuntu 8.0.
[02:22] <pedro-orange> templaedhel: have u installed libflashsupport?
[02:22] <Derrike> oh god
[02:22] <loquitus_of_borg> KDOC: you are kidding, right?
[02:22] <loquitus_of_borg> KDOC: Why would you want to install a virus on Linux?
[02:22] <KDOC> No I can't open certain websites.
[02:22] <racerx> anyone knows how to install or extract a file with a '.bundle' extension?
[02:22] <cars> KDOC: If you really really wanted to, I guess you may be able to load it in Wine.
[02:23] <loquitus_of_borg> KDOC: tell the idiots running those sites to get a life and create web compliant pages then.
[02:23] <Derrike> KDOC: You may use a browser like Opera
[02:23] <templaedhel> pedro-orange: just I sec I said
[02:23] <Derrike> that identifies itself as IE
[02:23] <Derrike> if you would like it to
[02:23] <templaedhel> pedro-orange: I'm trying to find the guide
[02:23] <drucken> how do i installnvclock to overclock my video card
[02:23] <pedro-orange> KDOC: You can presumably run it in WINE, alternatively there is ie4linux
[02:23] <Derrike> maybe there's a firefox plugin
[02:23] <KDOC> Is opera on the cd
[02:23] <pedro-orange> templaedhel: Sorry :) Ok.
[02:23] <onx> belkinhelp2, ssh user@host "gzip -d -c <yourimage>" | dd of=<target>
[02:24] <Esquilo> How can I reset ALSA?
[02:24] <belkinhelp2> onx...thanks
[02:24] <bert1> hi, can somebody tell me where the trash files are located please???
[02:24] <Derrike> Just google Opera and you'll find it; (unless you're asking because you're strictly live)
[02:24] <belkinhelp2> onx....that would be from a terminal using the live CD?
[02:24] <onx> that would work
[02:24] <ricky2122> after installing lkl,does anyone know how to start the program
[02:24] <saelynh> bert1: trash:///
[02:25] <bert1> saelynh, i get this...
[02:25] <bert1> sean@adventqt5500:~$ trash:///
[02:25] <bert1> bash: trash:///: No such file or directory
[02:25] <bert1> sean@adventqt5500:~$
[02:25] <jb_> RICKY have you tried opening a terminal and typing "sudo lkl"?
[02:25] <FloodBot1> bert1: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[02:25] <racerx> vmware worstation for linux download has extension ".bundle". anyone knows how to extract or install this?
[02:26] <ricky2122> yeah i tried that
[02:26] <pedro-orange> racerx: Are there install instructions with it?
[02:26] <saelynh> bert1: ho, for real you mean ?
[02:26] <saelynh> I don't know
[02:26] <kwyjibo> can someone tell me why today's firefox update causes flash videos to freeze after 2 seconds? they do not freeze in Epiphany
[02:26] <djhash> !trash | bert1
[02:26] <racerx> no
[02:26] <saelynh> I don't have any trash for my part, I just pcmanfm
[02:26] <jb_> ricky i'll try dling it and run
[02:26] <jb_> brb
[02:26] <bert1> lol
[02:26] <ricky2122> ok thanx
[02:26] <saelynh> I use *
[02:26] <bert1> thank djhash and saelynh
[02:27] <templaedhel> pedro-orange: its fine. so what's your flash problem?
[02:27] <racerx> I tried googling for it but nothing was clear
[02:27] <jb_> rick, did you use apt-get to dl the software... what is the programs full name?
[02:27] <pedro-orange> racerx: do you have any scripts such as vmware-install.pl?
[02:28] <RyanPrior> Rhythmbox won't play any songs, and if I run it from the CLI, it doesn't output any errors. Can somebody help me figure this out?
[02:28] <pedro-orange> templaedhel: I don't have any flash problems. I was trying to help you
[02:28] <kwyjibo> i'm the one with flash problems
[02:28] <onx> belkinhelp2, actually that's rather inefficient though as it uncompresses before transfer - my bad
[02:28] <racerx> I used to download the file when it used to be packaaged as tar.gz but this time it came with a .bundle ext
[02:28] <templaedhel> pedro-orange: oh. thanks. I believe I have flashplugin nonfree
[02:28] <jb_> Anyone know what software Rick was referring too.. "LKL"??
[02:29] <ricky2122> linux key logger
[02:29] <templaedhel> pedro-orange: yep its nonfree
[02:29] <onx> belkinhelp2, this makes more sense: ssh user@host "cat <yourimage>" | gzip -d -c | dd of=<target>
[02:29] <jb_> ah ok
[02:29] <racerx> the .tar.gz was easy to extract and in it was the vmware-install.pl
[02:29] <belkinhelp2> onx...i like efficiency, but effectiveness is more important at the moment...as long as it works.  Can i use this command in terminal running from the live CD?
[02:29] <bert1> !zip
[02:29] <Esquilo> How can I restart ALSA?
[02:29] <pedro-orange> templaedhel: Sometimes libflashsupport package solves the majority of sound in flash problems
[02:29] <ricky2122> jb_ its called linux key logger
[02:29] <djhash> racerx: did you try in terminal "./vmware.blahblah.bundle"
[02:30] <racerx> as soon as it finish download that is what i planned on trying
[02:30] <aXeus> Something strange just happened. I tried to apt-get install ftpd. And it seemed to work, but no "ftpd" was available on bash. So without removing it, I did apt-get install inetutils-ftpd.
[02:30] <aXeus> I also did apt-get install pureadmin.
[02:30] <asimplied> pedro-orange: I ran the following command in terminal and sound worked. sudo apt-get install libflashsupport
[02:31] <templaedhel> pedro-orange: I'm not the one with flash problems that's kwyjibo: I'm having the problem that firefox gives me some weird error when I try to open it
[02:31] <pedro-orange> asimplied: w00t
[02:31] <jb_> kk ricky, im attempting to compile it now source forge dl is slow
[02:31] <kernando> how can i set up a ftp server??
[02:31] <aXeus> It seems to be worknig, but I can't create virtual users. The pureadmin interface locks up and ftpd still is not available on bash. It was available for a minute then dissapeared after I tried to create an ftp user account.
[02:31] <ricky2122> jb_ ok thanx
[02:31] <pedro-orange> templaedhel: Perhaps you should file a bug report.
[02:31] <kwyjibo> pedro-orange: i'm not having sound problems. i updated firefox as Ubuntu's system tray thing said i should. and now flash videos all freeze after 2 seconds
[02:32] <asimplied> pedro-orang: indeed, thank you for pointing me towards troubles with pulse.  I had no idea that was introduced with new ubntu release.
[02:32] <djhash> !ftp-server | kernando
[02:32] <riegersn> is it possible to launch a gui app without logging into a desktop? like xbmc or boxee?
[02:32] <pedro-orange> asimplied: It's an ongoing issue - i've never had the problem but my housemate did
[02:34] <asimplied> pedro-orange: did you roomate happen to also have trouble burning cds/dvds?
[02:34] <templaedhel> pedro-orange: I might but I'm guessing that mozzilla or ubuntu forums will be buzzing with errors and solutions if it effects more people then kwyjibo: and me. thanks for helpin though
[02:34] <ryan__> I am tring to install a linux driver from nvidia.  There directions say to do this "Type "sh NVIDIA-Linux-x86-173.14.12-pkg1.run" to install the driver. NVIDIA now provides a utility to assist".  But that fails.  Any help.
[02:34] <pedro-orange> templaedhel: Yeh check the forums tomorrow, otherwise i'd file a bug report on launchpad
[02:35] <pedro-orange> ryan__: use the restricted drivers method, i find it works better
[02:35] <pedro-orange> asimplied: not that im aware of.
[02:35] <belkinhelp2> ryan__ is this an nvidia sound driver?
[02:36] <ryan__> belkinhelp2: video card
[02:36] <belkinhelp2> ryan__ sorry, i just ran into a problem with a sound driver from nvidia
[02:36] <belkinhelp2> ryan__ had to run a patch to get it to work
[02:36] <asimplied> pedro-orange: fair enough.  I have accomplished something today so I will worry about burning later.  take it easy.  ##
[02:37] <pedro-orange> ryan__: System > Admin > hardware drivers. Try doing it through there before installing something from the nvidia site
[02:37] <ryan__> hmmm. I have already tried the proprietary drivers and the screwed my whole system up.  I can now only view things in 800x600
[02:37] <pedro-orange> ryan__: You running hardy?
[02:37] <ryan__> yes Hardy.
[02:38] <beast_> ryan__:  you may want to try the Envy utility
[02:38] <snova> the upgrade process has left me with two kernels. it's safe to remove the older one, right?
[02:38] <pedro-orange> beast: You killed ryan__'s pc :P
[02:39] <beast_> wicked!
[02:39] <pedro-orange> snova: I'd keep incase u need to roll back.
[02:39] <riegersn> Is there an app that will let me browse all the hardware detected on my machine?
[02:39] <pedro-orange> riegersn: lshw
[02:40] <riegersn> im looking for a gui app
[02:40] <snova> i'm pretty sure it's ok, but i've aqcuired a wariness of messing with the kernel.
[02:40] <danbhfive> riegersn: doohickey
[02:40] <formode> I seem to be unable to import a vcard into Evolution for some reason, the "Forward" button is grey'd out. Anyone know why?
[02:40] <templaedhel> pedro-orange: and everyone else. Error launching browser window:no XBL binding for browser it seems to be a problem with bindings. all the messages have a binding in them somewhere
[02:42] <ryan__> Thanks for all of the help.  I reinstalled the driver and now the resolution is fine.  thanks
[02:42] <formode> I seem to be unable to import a vcard into Evolution for some reason, the "Forward" button is grey'd out. Anyone know why?
[02:42] <pedro-orange> templaedhel: Ok. Weird. :/
[02:43] <pedro-orange> templaedhel: You could try re-installing firefox.
[02:44] <SebNaitsabes> pedro-orange:   I got someone that installed the offical nivida driver, but then could not get GDM working,  he is  pissed off with Ubuntu now, because of all this Nivida driver shit
[02:44] <r2s> can I test the PNG transparency fix on IE6 running with wine??
[02:44] <kwyjibo> i seem to have fixed my flash video problem
[02:45] <SebNaitsabes> pedro-orange:  as for the ones from the repo,   stuff happended, and he could only have  800x600 resoloution
[02:45] <r2s> coz my IE6 on wine I think is not working for that transparency fix
[02:45] <kernando> i dont get it i install pureadmin but where does the file go to open the program
[02:45] <pedro-orange> SebNaitsabes: What card are we referring to?
[02:45] <tritium> Watch the language, SebNaitsabes
[02:45] <kwyjibo> i installed the Ubuntu Restricted Extras, which seemed to have reinstalled Flash (dont know if its the same version)
[02:45] <kwyjibo> before i was using just the macromedia flash plugin package
[02:45] <SebNaitsabes> pedro-orange:  yes what card good question,  in fact I wasn't entirely sure, but  there is logs of whatever etc some wehre hummm
[02:45] <pedro-orange> kwyjibo: thats how i install flash on a new system, never steered me wrong.
[02:46] <templaedhel> pedro-orange: been there done that. I did complete removal and it didn't work
[02:46] <SebNaitsabes> pedro-orange:  ,but  I think it may be some legacy one, since he has 256MB RAM
[02:46] <pedro-orange> templaedhel: I'd file a bug then if i were yuo.
[02:47] <kwyjibo> you never notice how much you need flash until it's gone :O
[02:47] <pedro-orange> SebNaitsabes: lshw -C display
[02:47] <StanManCan> 256mb ram? buy some more for $15
[02:48] <cars> StanManCan: I'm in the same boat.  I'd buy more, but it's RDRAM, and not cheap/available.
[02:48] <r2s> I'm developing a cross-browser website... but it seems that IE6 on wine doesn
[02:48] <pen> hey everyone
[02:48] <pen> I have a question
[02:48] <pen> My trash can icon disappeared
[02:48] <StanManCan> cars: ah ha, rdram... that sucks big time!
[02:48] <Esquilo> pen, add it back then
[02:48] <StanManCan> cars: what are you running it on..? must be a pretty old box
[02:48] <pen> although I have checked that in gconf the value of trash_icon_visible is checked
[02:48] <r2s> I'm developing a cross-browser website... but it seems that IE6 on wine doesn't work on that CSS filter or those PNG transparency fix
[02:48] <pen> Esquilo, I can't it's not on the desktop
[02:48] <Esquilo> pen, humm
[02:49] <linuxmonger> Does anybody know what's going on with Pigin 2.5.0? I keep getting disconnected from Yahoo! and so far I haven't been able to figure out why.
[02:49] <SebNaitsabes> pedro-orange: yeah, but not helping him right now
[02:49] <pen> Esquilo, it is probably off the screen but I don't know how to get it
[02:49] <Esquilo> pen, Have you tried add it in the panel?
[02:49] <pen> Esquilo, I don't want to add that to the panel
[02:49] <pedro-orange> r2s: Well it is a Windows application, Wine has come a long way but it's not 100% compatible.
[02:49] <Esquilo> ôÔ
[02:49] <pen> Esquilo, desktop is fine
[02:49] <Esquilo> ¬¬
[02:49] <Esquilo> I won't help you so
[02:49] <linuxmonger> 2.5.1 is on the pidgin.sf.net site, should I download and intall or wait for a .deb?
[02:49] <pen> Esquilo, ?
[02:49] <templaedhel> even after I romove firefox the menu item remains and I can still use it to get the same error
[02:49] <cars> StanManCan: Tell me about it.  It was very above average when it was new, especially with the nvidia ti4200. It can still do most things, but the RAM is the bottleneck.
[02:50] <SebNaitsabes> pedro-orange:  basically the  one from the repo screwed the resoloution up, but the one from nivida  got installed, but then he could not get gdm back
[02:50] <pen> Esquilo, don't say that, say you don't know
[02:50] <ryan__> Can someone lead me in the right direction.  I would like to set up dual monitors on Ubuntu.
[02:50] <r2s> pedro-orange: yeah... I just hate to switch back to windows and back to linux again
[02:50] <pedro-orange> templaedhel: did u sudo apt-get remove firefox?
[02:50] <Esquilo> pen, I don't like this "Windows way of life"
[02:50] <pen> Esquilo, but this is weird, it just disappeared
[02:50] <Esquilo> pen, Ah, sorry, "I don't know"
[02:50] <Esquilo> pen, humm
[02:50] <pen> Esquilo, ok, thx for the help anyway
[02:50] <pen> Esquilo, at least you talked
[02:50] <RyanPrior> Rhythmbox won't play any songs, and if I run it from the CLI, it doesn't output any errors. Can somebody help me figure this out?
[02:50] <Esquilo> pen, You can Access it?
[02:50] <pedro-orange> SebNaitsabes: You should check his xorg.conf  - it's supposed to auto-detect but u can specify resolutions there
[02:51] <Esquilo> do you have how to access it? pen
[02:51] <pen> Esquilo, I can use the trash in nautilus and the panel, but somehow the desktop icon disappeared
[02:51] <Esquilo> humm
[02:51] <Esquilo> I see, I see...
[02:51] <pen> Esquilo, even though I checked that in the gconf
[02:51] <pedro-orange> SebNaitsabes: If u not u can dkpg-reconfigure xorg-server
[02:51] <pen> Esquilo, so this is considered to be a bug isn't it?
[02:51] <Esquilo> Sorry, In this case I have never seen something like that in my life
[02:51] <pedro-orange> r2s: You can virtualise Windows
[02:51] <SebNaitsabes> pedro-orange:  yeah tried  dpkg-reconfigure  xorg server,  as for editing  xconfig,  how would I do that?
[02:51] <Esquilo> pen, I don't think so
[02:52] <pen> Esquilo, no?
[02:52] <Esquilo> It can be anything
[02:52] <pen> Esquilo, it's checked but it's not there
[02:52] <pen> Esquilo, it works with other icons only the trash disappeared
[02:52] <Esquilo> pen, ho!!
[02:52] <Esquilo> pen, look...
[02:52] <Esquilo> pen, Do you could create another user?
[02:52] <r2s> pedro-orange: hmm yeah that's my last resort...
[02:52] <pedro-orange> SebNaitsabes: sudo nano -w /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[02:53] <SebNaitsabes> pedro-orange:  well yes, but I meant what changes would I make to it?
[02:53] <r2s> pedro-orange: the problem is that cut&paste thing...hahaha nvm.. thanks dude
[02:53] <Esquilo> pen, do it. make another user... and I bet with you that this icon will show there ;)
[02:53] <pen> Esquilo, alright, let me try
[02:53] <Esquilo> :D
[02:53] <SebNaitsabes> pedro-orange:  he has a resoloution which is great, before the drivers go on,  which is lost after the driver from the repo,  but I guess I would add that resoloution into the correct place in x config  and hopefully it will work theno r?
[02:53] <pen> Esquilo, if so, how can I fix this?
[02:53] <formode>  dwmw2_gone
[02:54] <formode>  I seem to be unable to import a vcard into Evolution for some reason, the "Forward" button is grey'd out. Anyone know why?
[02:54] <pedro-orange> SebNaitsabes: You can specify it under Modes in the subsection display.
[02:54] <SebNaitsabes> pedro-orange:  what's the  -w in that first command you gave?
[02:54] <Esquilo> pen, I have no idea XD May it is a bug in ".trash"
[02:55] <pen> Esquilo, I see no .trash in my home folder
[02:55] <pedro-orange> SebNaitsabes: it's like word wrap
[02:55] <Esquilo> pen, actually it is in another folder...
[02:55] <BunTai> i want to install sidebar gadget in my ubuntu..anyone help me??
[02:55] <BunTai> i wanna be like this http://www.members.shaw.ca/mnicy/Desktop/31-01-08-desktop.png
[02:56] <Esquilo> like: ~/XXX/.trash
[02:56] <pedro-orange> SebNaitsabes: man nano :)
[02:56] <pen> Esquilo, hm
[02:56] <Esquilo> I can't remember what this XXX is
[02:56] <Esquilo> =/
[02:56] <stweston_> bunTai: WHY?
[02:56] <SebNaitsabes> pedro-orange:  looking at my own  xconfg  ( I just gedited it no sudo since not editing)   there is not that much in there, and I am not sure how I would edit his file which would be similar in certain ways
[02:56] <pedro-orange> SebNaitsabes: It stops CLRF and other weird characters in ur conf files
[02:56] <BunTai> stweston_: i want to install sidebar gadget like this http://www.members.shaw.ca/mnicy/Desktop/31-01-08-desktop.png
[02:56] <BunTai> can i?
[02:56] <stweston_> okay...
[02:57] <stweston_> no clue. sorry
[02:57] <SebNaitsabes> pedro-orange:  yeah nano I should probably really use something like that and learn to use properly,  but  I keep on taking the noob way gedit :D
[02:57] <stweston_> just wondering why you wanted a windows theme.
[02:57] <templaedhel> okay so I fixed firefox. don't ask how its complicated. but now I need to get my old bookmarks. I have the bookmarks.html file left over form before. what should I do with it?
[02:57] <BunTai> no
[02:57] <stweston_> LOL
[02:57] <BunTai> i dont want window theme
[02:57] <BunTai> i hate microsoft
[02:57] <BunTai> :P
[02:57] <stweston_> LOL
[02:57] <pedro-orange> SebNaitsabes: http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/50331/
[02:57] <BunTai> i want sidebar for my ubuntu
[02:57] <BunTai> like this person http://www.members.shaw.ca/mnicy/Desktop/31-01-08-desktop.png
[02:58] <Gerinych> im trying to put in a "boot cd" function in GRUB, what's the entry should look like?
[02:58] <stweston> you sure they weren't just emulating Ubuntu?
[02:58] <stweston> LOL
[02:58] <jdale> just started to watch wargames2...should i finish it?
[02:58] <pedro-orange> SebNaitsabes: But the new xserver is supposed to auto-detect so i dunno what the effects will be
[02:58] <stweston> Just kidding.
[02:58] <SebNaitsabes> pedro-orange:  my  xconfig does not even have  modes in it
[02:58] <templaedhel> pedro-orange: so I fixed firefox. don't ask how its complicated. but now I need to get my old bookmarks. I have the bookmarks.html file left over form before. what should I do with it?
[02:58] <BunTai> hahahaha
[02:58] <BunTai> now i see that
[02:58] <BunTai> the button start
[02:59] <BunTai> d*mn
[02:59] <stweston> yeah
[02:59] <pedro-orange> SebNaitsabes: Thats cause xserver auto detects now :)
[02:59] <BunTai> i want a sidebar gadget
[02:59] <BunTai> its look beatiful
[02:59] <SebNaitsabes> pedro-orange:  ,but in his case auto detection went wrong?
[02:59] <cars> jdale: as long as you don't compare it to the original, and keep your expectations low, you're OK.
[02:59] <BunTai> you know shere should i get it?
[02:59] <BunTai> you know where should i get it?
[02:59] <pedro-orange> templaedhel: Sorry I've not done anything like that before - perhaps fiddle with ur FF settings and see if u can import.
[03:00] <pedro-orange> SebNaitsabes: So it seems.
[03:01] <SebNaitsabes> pedro-orange: if I copied and put in xconfig in the screen section what you gave me on pastebin,  but with the resoluoton that works well on his lap top, it should work?
[03:01] <pen> Esquilo, ok
[03:01] <pen> Esquilo, it is there
[03:01] <pen> Esquilo, so it must be off screen
[03:01] <pen> Esquilo, or something
[03:01] <tritium> !enter  | pen
[03:01] <BunTai> !sidebar
[03:01] <pen> Esquilo, do you know how to retrieve any offscreen?
[03:01] <BunTai> !gadget
[03:01] <pen> tritium, thx for reminding me, do you happen to know how to solve my problem?
[03:02] <Esquilo> pen, No idea
[03:02] <cars> BunTai: It kind of looks like they're on a super-customized version of Vista with Ubuntu running seamlessly with VirtualBox.
[03:02] <tritium> pen: I've not been following.  Let me read the scrollback.
[03:02] <Esquilo> pen, If you don't want to boring with this problem you could move your files to this new user
[03:02] <BunTai> cars: yups..
[03:02] <BunTai> :(
[03:02] <cars> BunTai: I don't know the package they used for the sidebar, though.  It's not Vista, though.
[03:02] <tritium> pen: looking for your old ~/.Trash?
[03:02] <pedro-orange> SebNaitsabes: Not necessarily. Depends on the identifiers associated with his hardware, I'd be cautious and take a backup of it before any manual changes you make
[03:02] <BunTai> yup
[03:02] <pen> Esquilo, I don't really want to do that
[03:02] <Esquilo> I see
[03:02] <tritium> !trash | pen
[03:02] <BunTai> but its ok...ubuntu still the best..
[03:03] <pen> tritium, well, it's not there and the desktop icon disappeared
[03:03] <pen> tritium, although I checked it in gconf
[03:03] <tritium> pen: see above
[03:03] <BunTai> !paste
[03:03] <SebNaitsabes> pedro-orange:  well if I even get a chance to do this,  he  is pissed off with Ubuntu,  and went to it for wrong reasons in the first place
[03:03] <pen> tritium, that's not what I want
[03:04] <pen> tritium, I want the desktop icon back
[03:04] <SebNaitsabes> pedroa-orange: after chaning xconfig I guess  it needs restarting,  remind me the command for that
[03:04] <SebNaitsabes> pedro-orange:
[03:04] <BunTai> gtg
[03:04] <BunTai> bye all
[03:05] <a2z> I cannot open most of the pages using either Firefox or IE also i can not connect to most of the IRC servers ???
[03:05] <pedro-orange> SebNaitsabes: Bad luck for him. :( I'd just tell him it's free. You may want to google his particular video card for known issues. sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart
[03:06] <RyanPrior> Rhythmbox won't play any songs, and if I run it from the CLI, it doesn't output any errors. Can somebody help me figure this out?
[03:06] <gpm> hi all. my cube has only two sides, and i can't figure out how to make it have four. the hsize option is set to 4
[03:07] <SebNaitsabes> pedro-orange:   yeah  someone that had a virused Windows,  so   to start clean put on Ubuntu,  and then the drivers won't work, plus he has loads of Windows stuff, but , because he only has 256mb RAM can't even run a virtual machine of  Windows.  and  they have no money to buy CD's at the moment,  so  basically buggered, but I was reading about a way to install Ubuntu psyically onto a  hard disk from ISO
[03:07] <StanManCan> i have
[03:07] <StanManCan> cd /home/ventrilo/ventsrv
 ./ventrilo_srv -d
[03:07] <StanManCan> in my script
[03:07] <StanManCan> but
[03:07] <FloodBot1> StanManCan: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[03:07] <StanManCan> it's saying  ./etc/rc2.d/S20ventrilo_srv.sh: 25: /ventrilo_srv: not found
[03:07] <pedro-orange> RyanPrior: Are you trying to play mp3s? Have you installed the codecs?
[03:07] <RyanPrior> pedro-orange: These are songs which have never failed to play before, and which played fine hours earlier today.
[03:08] <pedro-orange> RyanPrior: On linux? Or windows?
[03:08] <RyanPrior> pedro-orange: The only change I've made to my computer was updating my Firefox package to version 3.0.2
[03:08] <RyanPrior> pedro-orange: On Ubuntu, what else?
[03:08] <SebNaitsabes> pedroa-orange:  I can restart  x when  logged into Gnome?  don't need to go into the other console
[03:09] <pedro-orange> RyanPrior: Restart pulseaudio, or try closing all applications using the sound output
[03:09] <RyanPrior> pedro-orange: If Firefox has the sound output, is there a way to switch it to PulseAudio instead?
[03:09] <ozo2> hi
[03:09] <loquitus_of_borg> How do I logoff an X11 user from the command prompt, if I am sshed to the machine?
[03:09] <a2z> I cannot open most of the pages using either Firefox or IE also i can not connect to most of the IRC servers ???
[03:10] <roe_> a2z, what does "the pages" mean
[03:10] <roe_> and what error do you get when you try to connect to other irc servers
[03:10] <a2z> sorry i meant Most of the WEB pages
[03:10] <corunum> hello, I need help getting my wireless to work in virtualbox
[03:10] <a2z> and when i try to connect to IRC servers i get Connection Timed Out
[03:11] <templaedhel> everything is fixed!!!! yay :-D
[03:11] <roe_> a2z, do the web pages you can't open resolve in DNS?
[03:11] <cars> corunum: Does the virtual machine have networking enabled?
[03:11] <davidcramer> what is the opposite of the "python2.5-minimal" package
[03:11] <davidcramer> i need all the system libraries
[03:11] <a2z> how do i know whether they resolve in DNS or not
[03:12] <corunum> cars, I don't know how to verify this. sorry
[03:12] <roe_> a2z, do you know how to open up a terminal window?
[03:12] <a2z> well sorry to say im using XP and not ubuntu i thought some1 could help here
[03:12] <cars> corunum: It would be in the options of the virtual machine when it's off.
[03:12] <roe_> a2z, ha
[03:12] <jrib> davidcramer: python2.5
[03:12] <roe_> do you know how to open up a command prompt?
[03:12] <davidcramer> jrib: im missing common modules, someone mentioned its probablyb ecause of the license on them
[03:13] <pen> anyone here know how to get the desktop trash bin back if it is offscreen ?
[03:13] <a2z> yes i know
[03:13] <jrib> davidcramer: like?
[03:13] <[Solars]> whats a good virtual machine to run in winxp64 to run unbunto in?
[03:13] <davidcramer> profile module
[03:13] <StanManCan> a2z what made you think of coming to the ubuntu linux channel for winxp help?
[03:13] <cars> a2z, you can also try #windows, they might have more knowledgeable people there, if you can't get it fixed here.
[03:13] <a2z> well let me try here
[03:14] <roe_> a2z, nslookup is the command you are interested in, but they are right #windows is the correct place
[03:14] <cars> StanManCan: It's probably because it's a huge channel, and there are helpful people everywhere.
[03:14] <jrib> davidcramer: did you install python-profiler?
[03:14] <corunum> let me check cars
[03:14] <valros> hey guys, question: whats a good simple lightwieght c++ IDE, I used a little of dev-C++, is it easily available for linux
[03:14] <pedro-orange> Internet died. Please resend any msgs
[03:14] <StanManCan> a2z: try resetting your connections
[03:14] <barlrol> hey is the new gnome available in the respitories yet?
[03:14] <davidcramer> jrib: quite retarded, its a core library :P
[03:14] <StanManCan> a2z: go int o command prompt and type "netsh winsock reset catalog"
[03:14] <davidcramer> but ill install it and see if it fixes it
[03:14] <Cheeky> can anyone tell me a good text editor that i could use .to .. do php .. with syntax highlighting .. i need to work with files .. on my ubuntu server ..
[03:14] <genii> a2z: It's like bringing your rusted out Honda Civic to the GM Dealership and asking them questions about it
[03:14] <pedro-orange> valros: gedit is good enough with syntax highlighting :) Otherwise use Eclipse
[03:15] <a2z> roe i tried that command and got this Default Server:  dnscache1.singnet.com.sg
[03:15] <a2z> Address:  <IP_ADDRESS>
[03:15] <roe_> Cheeky, I use emacs, there are extensions for almost any language for syntax highlighting
[03:15] <genii> Perhaps a Pinto might have been a better example
[03:16] <barlrol> hey is the new gnome available in the respitories yet?
[03:16] <roe_> a2z, what was the command you typed in
[03:16] <valros> k
[03:16] <a2z> i typed nslookup
[03:16] <roe_> barlrol, I would be surprised if it gets put into hardy's repos
[03:17] <roe_> a2z, do nslookiup /? and read
[03:17] <barlrol> roe_: why?
[03:17] <StanManCan> a2z: did you try my command?
[03:17] <a2z> yes StanManCan
[03:17] <valros> is gedit in the repositories, also what is the aptitude command to search the repositories
[03:17] <a2z> it says i have to reboot in order to complete the reset
[03:17] <roe_> valros, aptitude search <package name>
[03:17] <izinucs> valros, gedit is installed by default
[03:17] <StanManCan> ya
[03:18] <StanManCan> so
[03:18] <StanManCan> reboot
[03:18] <StanManCan> and try.
[03:18] <valros> o rly?
[03:18] <valros> thanks roe
[03:18] <MindVirus> How do I generate a key for myself?
[03:18] <gpm> why does my cube only have two sides!? the workspace switcher has four slots
[03:18] <a2z> ok BRB
[03:18] <alanbshepard> is there a way to force fdupes to only delete dupes from one of the compared folders and not flip flop betwen them?
[03:18] <gpm> but i can only select two of them, even in the switcher on the panel
[03:19] <amdpox> gpm: set the virtual desktop size in ccsm to 4 horizontal, 1 vertical
[03:19] <valros> ah, but gedit is no ide, whats the best, didnt like eclipse, too heavy
[03:20] <izinucs> valros, you want syntax highlighting.. check the view mode in gedit..
[03:20] <gpm> amdpox: thanks!
[03:20] <doctorow> Ever since I upgraded to Hardy, my Flash video sound and stability have been very poor. I've read and tried a dozen different recipes for fixing it, but to no avail. I've just uninstalled (I *think*) the Flash 10 beta and reinstalled flashplugin-nonfree and libflashsupport, but now I'm not getting any Flash audio again. Help!
[03:20] <Cheeky> roe_: yeah but i need to work on in in cli over my LAN..
[03:20] <valros> .......well id prefer a compiler built in
[03:21] <roe_> I only use emacs on the cli

[03:21] <pedro-orange> valros: Anjuta?
[03:21] <kev12345> is anyone fimilar with getting the itunes store to work under wine?
[03:21] <cars> digitalfiz: I am. What error does it give?
[03:21] <roe_> Cheeky, at least in debian there is an emacs21-nox package (it maybe emacs22 these days)
[03:21] <Frogzoo> doctorow: did you increase the cache size?
[03:21] <digitalfiz> cars, it says try logging into the website to fix this
[03:21] <digitalfiz> i do and it still does the same thing
[03:22] <roe_> kev12345, I'm gonna say #wine may be
[03:22] <cars> digitalfiz: I am getting the same error.  What version are you using?
[03:22] <kev12345> thank you
[03:22] <doctorow> Frogzoo: No, I haven't tried that -- how do I do that?
[03:22] <digitalfiz> every so often it disconnects its quite anoying
[03:22] <genii> !info emacs22-nox
[03:22] <a2z> StanManCan I still cant open irc.mozilla.org
[03:22] <Frogzoo> doctorow: right click - options - set cache to unlimited or 10meg
[03:22] <digitalfiz> cars, 2.5
[03:22] <Frogzoo> doctorow: right click in the flash window that is
[03:22] <roe_> a2z, read the help file... ns2lookup /? and understand how to use the command
[03:23] <jigp> hello how to open .docm in openoffice?
[03:23] <doctorow> Frogzoo -- just tried that -- no dice!
[03:23] <Sephr> finally got a friend to burn my x64 8.04 alt installer cd
[03:23] <a2z> well i think it is a problem with DNS
[03:23] <digitalfiz> cars, aparently its because yahoo upgraded their service recently im sure pidgin will release a patch soon
[03:23] <Sephr> hope this works with my raid drives
[03:23] <Frogzoo> doctorow: how do you mean? it's definitely an option there
[03:23] <alanbshepard> anyone know of a way to perform symetric encryption without a command line.
[03:23] <Gun_Smoke> digitalfiz, now that you mention it yes.. I just noticed it was not connected anymore.
[03:24] <cars> digitalfiz: Most likely.  I'm getting the same error with pidgin on my n800.
[03:24] <Frogzoo> doctorow: the option is called "local storage"
[03:24] <a2z> StanManCan u here?
[03:25] <cars> digitalfiz: The only temporary workaround I can think of until they release a patch is to use a jabber server to connect to Yahoo and relay the messages.
[03:25] <roe_> a2z, are your dns requests not resolving?
[03:25] <stoned24> any body know how to get a proxy?
[03:25] <digitalfiz> cars, i connect fine it just doesnt stay connected for very long. Im lazy so ill just keep hitting reconnect :P
[03:26] <digitalfiz> disconnects after a few hours usually
[03:26] <tensei> my keypad controls the mouse instead of typing numbers, where is that setting?
[03:26] <a2z> well i can open Many pages but cant open some
[03:26] <roe_> stoned24, what does that mean?
[03:26] <digitalfiz> num lock
[03:26] <stoned24> does ene one in here know how i can obtaina proxy?
[03:27] <cars> stoned24: What kind of proxy?  What would you use or need it for?
[03:27] <roe_> stoned24, you can proxy almost any type of network traffic.  Do you want to install a proxy or find one that is available?
[03:27] <tensei> digitalfiz: umm that does nothing of course... i fixed this once pefore but forgot how
[03:27] <iFvwm> 󰀍
[03:27] <jasuus> hi .. how do i assign a function output to a variable and then test that variable...as in var = $(ps aux | grep ...)   if ( var == ...
[03:28] <jasuus> in a shell
[03:28] <iFvwm> for i in `ps aux|grep ...`
[03:29] <Sephr> I've used the normal x86 and x64 install cds before but I've never used the x64 alt install dvd, is there a guide to using the alt dvd installer anywhere?
[03:29] <SebNaitsabes> pedro-orange:  I am doing stuff with him now here's the results of  lshw -C display   http://www.pastebin.ca/1210208
[03:29] <SebNaitsabes> pedro-orange:  have his resoloutions and refresh rate saved in a file on his desktop
[03:29] <iFvwm> or do while read a; xxxx; done < `ps aux|grep ...`
[03:30] <Sephr> why can't there just be a normal installer, a raid-supporting installer, then a confusing alt installer?
[03:30] <pedro-orange> SebNaitsabes: Whats his xorg.conf look like?
[03:31] <SebNaitsabes> pedro-orange: this is now with  no nivida driver installed I guess,  since his resoloutions are working
[03:31] <SebNaitsabes> pedro-orange: ,but yes I was going to look at that next
[03:31] <adrian_2002ca> Let's say I used the shift down method to lower my volume to mute. Then, using the volume applet, i cannot change the volume until I use shift up. do i report a bug or is it an error?
[03:32] <IdahoEv> once i have configured partitions and devices for soft RAID, how long should the installer take before going to the next step?   My screen has been blank for 10 minutes.
[03:32] <Gun_Smoke> Sephr, the alternateCD is pretty easy to follow.
[03:32] <Sephr> I can't even get it to boot via the altCD
[03:32] <Sephr> so weird
[03:33] <Gun_Smoke> check the burn?
[03:33] <Sephr> It might be
[03:33] <Sephr> this dvd burner randomly pops open sometimes, might be something wrong w/it
[03:34] <pedro-orange> SebNaitsabes: I'd suggest installing the nvidia driver and then adding something like Modes "1440x900" to his xorg.conf and rebooting.
[03:35] <cars> Sephr, if you can boot to the menu on the altCD, you can verify the CD's integrity.
[03:35] <ushimitsudoki> The new firefox update is all goofed up? Can't click on tabs to change them and doesn't remember which tabs to open on re-open? Or just me?
[03:36] <izinucs> ushimitsudoki, just you of course :)..  No but seriously I  haven't had any issues with the update.
[03:36] <ttwio> Hi - is this a official ubuntu page ? http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Ubuntu:Hardy
[03:36] <SebNaitsabes> pedro-orange:  this is with  I guess no nivida driver installed anymore or just  not set up to work  http://www.pastebin.ca/1210215
[03:36] <danbh_intrepid> ttwio: no
[03:36] <Gerinych> I can't boot a hfs+ partition with GRUB
[03:37] <jrib> ttwio: no
[03:37] <ttwio> thanks
[03:37] <benzss> does anyone here use OSS 4? is it better than alsa/pulseaudio?
[03:37] <ushimitsudoki> izinucs: wow thanks - something must have gone wrong because my firefox is seriously goofy and i just updated it. alright, thanks for the non-confirmation :)
[03:37] <danbh_intrepid> ttwio: try help.ubuntu.com
[03:37] <SebNaitsabes> pedro-orange: I guess what happens is the driver gets installed and then xconfig screws up
[03:37] <pedro-orange> SebNaitsabes: Might be an idea to run dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg after the nvidia install
[03:37] <izinucs> ushimitsudoki, did you restart it?  if not do that
[03:38] <SebNaitsabes> pedro-orange:  what does  -phigh do?
[03:38] <pedro-orange> SebNaitsabes: Well I'd suggest, if its fine now - just leave it :P
[03:38] <SebNaitsabes> pedro-orange:  well  it works without drivers
[03:38] <genii> SebNaitsabes: It only does resolution settings as opposed to full x reconfig
[03:38] <SebNaitsabes> pedro-orange: ,but he needs the driver
[03:38] <pedro-orange> SebNaitsabes: Why?
[03:38] <SebNaitsabes> pedro-orange: so certain programs will work
[03:39] <ushimitsudoki> izinucs: there was an existing firefox process (not visible) that was it. thanks much!
[03:39] <SebNaitsabes> pedro-orange:  games actsaully, really he should be on Windows, but  can't just install Windows on there right now either  dual boot or whatever
[03:40] <izinucs> ushimitsudoki, happened to someone else this morning as well.  np
[03:40] <pedro-orange> SebNaitsabes: Well if he wants to play games, he should rly be on windows
[03:40] <pushnell> Hey all.  So, I'm a new ubuntu user having a perl issue, not sure which chan is correct.  I need the UUID perl module, and noticed that Adept had a libuuid-perl package, so I assume that perl package management is not done through cpan or ppm but the ubuntu package manager ... is this correct?
[03:40] <izinucs> yep
[03:41] <jigp> hello guys is there a way to open a docm?
[03:41] <pushnell> I installed the package via adept, but the UUID.pm went to /usr/lib/perl5/UUID.pm ... it's usually in the Data namespace, which would put it under /usr/lib/perl5/Data/UUID.pm ...
[03:41] <jrib> pushnell: either
[03:41] <SebNaitsabes> pedro-orange:  yes, but  he can't buy a CD right now,  and has no Windows CD the usaul story.   I read about some sort of  way to make an ISO be installed onto a parttion psyically by like making a partition in the ISO format,  and  then  like booting the ISO in that partition from Grub
[03:41] <jigp> hello guys is there a way to open a ".docm"?I cannot open it to openoffice2.4
[03:41] <SebNaitsabes> pedro-orange: which driver from the repo, legacy or normal?  any idea?
[03:41] <pushnell> So the code I have written now can't find the .pm and I'm not sure what the 'right' way is to go about fixing this.  This code has run as-is under CentOS and ActivePerl/Win32.
[03:42] <Cycom> which pm?
[03:42] <nonewmsgs> jigp, i am not familiar with .docm what app made it orginaly
[03:42] <cars> pedro-orange: Actually, I'm so sick of Windows Vista and Microsoft that I'm going to try and convert permanently to Ubuntu.    I'm going to run as many games as possible in Ubuntu.
[03:42] <pushnell> Cycom: UUID.pm
[03:42] <Cycom> pushnell: hrm...
[03:42] <pedro-orange> SebNaitsabes: I'm not sure about that. With regards to the driver probably glx
[03:43] <Seveas> pushnell, put the pm in a place in @INC or use 'use lib /path/to/dir_with_pm/'
[03:43] <Seveas> pushnell, obviously, the former approach is better :)
[03:43] <jigp> nonewmsgs its an ms office 2007 file...
[03:43] <SebNaitsabes> pedro-orange:  his computer is a few years old with 256mb RAM
[03:43] <Gerinych> I can't boot OSx86 with GRUB, someone help
[03:43] <pedro-orange> cars: Running games in wine sometimes works, I tried to get alot working for my housemate - and was only about 20/30% successful. but since they're written for windows - its what i expectedf.
[03:43] <Seveas> Gerinych, find an osx86 channel, this is Ubuntu support
[03:43] <pushnell> Seveas: @INC already has /usr/lib/perl5, but the problem is that the package manager did not install the .pm under the Data folder, so when I 'use Data::UUID;' it can't find it.
[03:44] <Gerinych> seveas: sorry
[03:44] <Cycom> pushnell: try installing libossp-uuid-perl maybe...
[03:44] <izinucs> jigp, its also a file from Office 2000... it's a doc file with macros
[03:44] <cars> pedro-orange: I'm so furious with it that I'm considering using Cedega.
[03:45] <Arney> anyone here have a Torrent leech invite? i need one... i got good reputation on moviex and demonoid. movieX
[03:45] <Arney> Oldarney ( Log Out ) UL: 104.78 GB DL: 20.09 GB Ratio:5.21
[03:45] <Seveas> pushnell, hmm, looking at the package now...
[03:45] <Seveas> Arney, go somewhere else.
[03:45] <jigp> izinucs : yes but I cannot open it in office 2000
[03:45] <pedro-orange> SebNaitsabes: you may find this page and it's links helpful: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto/Nvidia
[03:45] <Arney> where exactly
[03:45] <Seveas> Arney, I don't care, just not in here. We don't support illegal p2p things
[03:46] <pedro-orange> cars: You should check winehq appdb for games. Cegeda is worse than wine imo.
[03:46] <valros> whos familiar with anjuta
[03:46] <Cycom> pushnell: supposedly it that package above contains UUID.pm
[03:46] <Arney> its not illigal, there are many legal things there. downloading stuff you havent bought is illigal.
[03:46] <cars> pedro-orange: Worse as in compatibility?
[03:46] <izinucs> jigp, that's weird unless there was a file format change between office 97 and office 2000 like there was for the latest Office product.
[03:46] <nonewmsgs> jigp, sorry if OOo doesnt open it then idk would would
[03:47] <Seveas> pushnell, the lib-ossp-uuid-perl package (replacing libdata-uuid-perl apparently) does things correctly in intrepid
[03:47] <nonewmsgs> Arney, this isn't an argument you want to have here...you're about to get your ass banned
[03:47] <pedro-orange> cars: Worse as in getting apps to run. Plus Cedega don't contribute, and they steal alot from the wine project
[03:47] <Arney> ok then i have another question. is there a 64 bit version of ubuntu??
[03:47] <Seveas> Arney, yes
[03:47] <nonewmsgs> Arney, yes
[03:47] <Arney> awesome
[03:48] <Seveas> pushnell, the lib-ossp-uuid-perl package (replacing libdata-uuid-perl apparently) does things correctly in hardy as well
[03:48] <SebNaitsabes> pedro-orange: thanks
[03:48] <Guest99136> hey, I just installed ubuntu but i had to change my hard drive mode to ahci to get the installer to recognize the hard drive, problem is that windows does not recognize the hard drive in ahci mode, how do I get linux to recognize my hard drive now?
[03:48] <cars> pedro-orange: I thought Cedega based on a fork from wine, so they're not stealing any more.
[03:48] <pushnell> Ok, not sure if that's the same UUID package or not but checking it out.
[03:48] <valros> yeah arney, too my extreme surprise my old intel celeron booted ubuntu 64
[03:48] <pushnell> (sorry Cycom, Saveas, was trying to find out if that was the same package via cpan)
[03:48] <valros> anyone familiar with anjuta?
[03:49] <Cycom> pushnell: no problem.  I suppose you could always go the CPAN route as well :)
[03:49] <pedro-orange> cars: I've not ever used cedega out of principle, plus im not paying for it. If the apps u want are supported go for it.
[03:49] <Arney> i have a wolfdale 2.53ghz
[03:49] <Seveas> pushnell, ah... please don't ask for support for CPAN packages in here. We only support ubuntu packages
[03:50] <pushnell> Saveas: I'm sure cpan would be an easy fix, but I'm trying to feel out ubuntu, so trying to stick with ubuntu packages/methods for now.
[03:50] <Cycom> pushnell: so did you install it then?
[03:50] <Seveas> pushnell, excellent :) apt-get install libdata-uuid-perl (which installs libossp-uuid-perl)
[03:51] <Cycom> don't forget the sudo!
[03:51] <Seveas> pushnell, generally, if something is called Foo::Bar on CPAM, there's a libfoo-bar-perl package in Ubuntu
[03:51] <cars> pedro-orange: Eh, I'll just try everything with Wine first, but if it doesn't work, I'll just use virtualbox or something to run XP and run things through there (If there is any 3D graphics support for a virtual machine?)
[03:52] <Cycom> cars: VMWare 6.5 supports it for XP guests.
[03:52] <pedro-orange> cars: I would imagine virtual machines to have poor performance for games
[03:52] <Cycom> cars: it's still in beta, but it supports up to DX9
[03:52] <Cycom> pedro-orange: cars: you can also buy crossover and use that if wine doesn't support it, depending on the game.
[03:53] <pedro-orange> cars: what games do u want to play? check the wine appdb
[03:53] <cars> pedro-orange: I was hoping that coming from Vista, all the resources I'd save would make up for any poor performance :)
[03:53] <tyberion> hello
[03:53] <pedro-orange> Cycom: Isn't crossover for macs?
[03:53] <pushnell> ok, yes, that worked.  Thanks Cycom & Seveas!
[03:53] <Cycom> pedro-orange: macs AND linux.
[03:53] <tyberion> what is the basic pdf viewer command for ubuntu? which is supposed to be better than acroread?
[03:53] <Cycom> pushnell: happy to help a fellow perl masochist.
[03:54] <pedro-orange> Cycom: Then you know more about it than i do.
[03:54] <randomlogic78> I have set a package to 'hold' how can I change that so I can use apt-get to uninstall and start over
[03:54] <ushimitsudoki> tyberion: evince is one
[03:54] <Cycom> pedro-orange: yeah, I bought it a while back.  it's pretty decent, but generally not quite as good as a native linux app or a native windows app.  I was using it to run office 2007
[03:55] <pedro-orange> Cycom: you can run office2007 in wine iirc
[03:55] <mike1> hello I needed to switch my hard drive from sata to AHCI in order to get the installer to recognize my hard drive, but i need to use the hard drive in sata mode to boot into windows, how do I get linux to recognize my hard drive, i can get the details of the controller card
[03:55] <tyberion> ushimitsudoki: thanx that was the one I was looking for.
[03:56] <Cycom> pedro-orange: crossover gives you actual support for stuff like that, and supposedly submits their stuff upstream to wine.
[03:56] <sobrenow> how do i change my ip with operaq?
[03:56] <sobrenow> opera?
[03:56] <pedro-orange> sobrenow: IP doesn't control your IP its a browser
[03:56] <genii> sobrenow: I think you may want to do that with your network settings instead
[03:57] <pedro-orange> sobrenow: Opera doesn't control your IP its a browser*
[03:57] <R-800_> Hello, everyone.  I'm having an unusual amount of trouble using the online instructions on how to install GRUB loader.
[03:57] <R-800_> I get the GRUB prompt, and then fail to find the relevant folders and files in the Terminal.
[03:58] <pedro-orange> Anyway; im off.
[03:58] <R-800_> My BOOT folder seems to have only five folders in it, and none of the ones the instructions tell me to access.
[03:58] <R-800_> Five files in it, rather, not folders.
[03:58] <sobrenow> how do i do that pedro
[03:58] <sobrenow> ?
[03:58] <JunTa1> how do you start a service? i want to start syndaemon but the only way i found to do that was through command line
[03:59] <JunTa1> lets say i start syndaemon on startup and I want to change or reenable the touchpad...how would I do that?
[03:59] <paganini> Does anyone have any idea why, when logged in via XDMCP, my 'M' key only registers every other press? All the other keys seem to work fine.
[03:59] <R-800_> Is there any way to download GRUB loader before installing it?  The instructions seem to assume you have access to the necessary files on your system, but I seem not to, for some reason.
[04:00] <izinucs> R-800_, I don't know which online tutorial you're looking at but I'll see if ubutu is around.
[04:00] <R-800_> Thanks.  : )
[04:01] <izinucs> !grub | R-800_
[04:01] <R-800_> Yeah, I think that's the URL I used.
[04:01] <mn> ubuntu ftw!  I'm out
[04:02] <sobrenow> how do i tell if my proxy is werking
[04:02] <izinucs> R-800_, what are you actually trying to do?  Are you on ubuntu now?
[04:02] <Tarantulafudge> man
[04:02] <dustmop> dvdbackup keeps saying "Error reading IFO for title set". anyone know why i'm getting this?
[04:03] <valros> ........i did a very broad search and cant see it all, the terminal wont fully scroll up, a fix?
[04:03] <sobrenow> dustmop it may be a dirty lense
[04:03] <digitalfiz> encrypted dvd?
[04:03] <R-800_> Not now, no.  I'm trying to install Grub Loader so that I can have a dual boot again.  I had one originally, but after reinstalling WinXP on one drive, Ubuntu on the other cannot be accessed.
[04:03] <dustmop> ah
[04:03] <dustmop> i'll have a look at that
[04:03] <Tarantulafudge> I just installed ubuntu over my vista and I had no wireless drivers :(, i'm using some crappy modified driver from the forums
[04:03] <Cycom> Tarantulafudge: what kind of wireless card?
[04:03] <pen> anyone here know how to get the desktop trash bin back if it is offscreen ?
[04:04] <izinucs> R-800_, ah.. you can do it from a live cd .. do you have one?
[04:04] <Tarantulafudge> Cycom: rtl8187b usb (internal)
[04:04] <R-800_> izinucs: Yes.
[04:04] <Tarantulafudge> Cycom: ndiswrapper did not work
[04:04] <sobrenow> how do i get tor
[04:04] <sobrenow> ?
[04:05] <rendero> hi, everytime i start ubuntu, lot of ips blocked by firestarter same port , but different port at next reboot, any reason ?
[04:05] <digitalfiz> synaptic?
[04:05] <izinucs> R-800_, then you should be able to follow the guide here using the live cd.. https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows
[04:05] <sobrenow> does anybody have a link to tor?
[04:05] <Tarantulafudge> Cycom: I was in the dark for hours, I had to reinstall vista just to get back on the net to figure out how to fix it
[04:06] <bobertdos> pen: Right-click and Add to Panel?
[04:06] <JunTa1> how do you start syndaemon without leaving the command line open?
[04:06] <pen> bobertdos, I want the trash to be on the desktop
[04:06] <pen> bobertdos, and although I checked in gconf
[04:06] <pen> bobertdos, it is not there
[04:06] <pen> bobertdos, on the desktop'
[04:06] <Tarantulafudge> is there a way to shrink everything in gnome, everything is about 3x bigger than it should be
[04:07] <sobrenow> can ene one link me to tor?
[04:07] <izinucs> !tor > sobrenow
[04:07] <R-800_> izinucs: I used that guide already.  I can only get as far as to get to the GRUB prompt in the Terminal.  The very next step fails, giving me an error that something failed to be found.  I then did some research that led me to believe that my BOOT folder was supposed to contain certain files or folders that the instructions were looking for.  But when I went to my BOOT folder afterward, I...
[04:07] <R-800_> ...found that nothing the instructions were telling me to search for were present there.
[04:07] <corunum> need help getting the internet to work in virtualbox
[04:07] <R-800_> So I then started wondering if there is a way to download this information before trying to install GRUB.
[04:07] <Cycom> Tarantulafudge: dunno much about that card :( sorry
[04:08] <sobrenow> can u send it again
[04:08] <Cycom> Tarantulafudge: have you tried it in 8.10?
[04:08] <sobrenow> ubottu
[04:08] <Tarantulafudge> Cycom: no, its not even out yet
[04:08] <Cycom> Tarantulafudge: when choosing between having hardware working and having a released OS, I chose having my hardware working.
[04:08] <izinucs> R-800_, while booted to the live cd.??  copy and paste the text to a basic text file and save it on a usb key maybe?
[04:08] <paganini> WAUGH
[04:08] <paganini> This is driving me crazy
[04:08] <Cycom> Tarantulafudge: it will be soon.  you can download the, what? alpha 6? beta?
[04:08] <paganini> Why the *M* key?
[04:09] <paganini> Why not the *N* key?
[04:09] <paganini> or something?
[04:09] <genii> JunTa1: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuBootupHowto might give you some ideas
[04:09]  * paganini doesn't even know how to start finding out what could be wrong
[04:09] <R-800_> izinucs: USB key?
[04:09] <Tarantulafudge> i'm doing an update, maybe a a new kernel will mean native drivers
[04:10] <bobertdos> pen: It's in the config editor for me.
[04:10] <izinucs> R-800_, usb memory stick.. anthing that will store the file outside of the harddrive
[04:10] <R-800_> izinucs: Oh, okay.
[04:10] <bobertdos> pen: You could try setting it through the command line.
[04:10] <Ububegin> when i type ls -lst... in a particular folder.. 72 -rwxr-xr-x  1 myName myName 66505 2008-09-23 11:12 libimageOpenCV.so .. how can find out what the different columns mean
[04:10] <JunTa1> genii: thanks
[04:10] <genii> JunTa1: np
[04:10] <chipbuddy> i'm trying to get my ssh from my laptop to my desktop. when i have my laptop plugged in to a wired connection, the ssh works fine. but when i'm the wireless network it doesn't work. i think this might be because my laptop is using the wired settings for when i'm connected wirelessly. does this seem plausible, and how do i fix it?
[04:11] <R-800_> izinucs: I can do that and then display it here.  Is that what you are suggesting?
[04:11] <pen> bobertdos, the problem is that in the config editor it is checked
[04:11] <pen> bobertdos, but the icon is not showing on the desktop
[04:11] <izinucs> R-800_, no just so you'll have a copy of the instructions for when you boot to the live cd to fix grub
[04:12] <R-800_> izinucs: I don't have a problem with keeping the instructions handy while using the Live CD.  I have that problem solved already.  I thought you were asking me to save my error message from the Terminal to some outside media so that it could be shown to others later.
[04:12] <Tarantulafudge> there we go
[04:12] <izinucs> R-800_, no .. I'm sorry.. misunderstanding...
[04:13] <bobertdos> pen: and you're under the right key? apps->nautilus->desktop?
[04:13] <bobertdos> pen: Oh, and you're running as a regular user, right?
[04:13] <Ububegin> when i type ls -lst... in a particular folder.. I get this {72 -rwxr-xr-x  1 myName myName 66505 2008-09-23 11:12 libimageOpenCV.so} .. how can find out what the different columns mean
[04:13] <R-800_> izinucs: Okay.  But since it is clear now that I have the instructions while using the Live CD, what is it that you would suggest at this point?
[04:13] <pen> bobertdos, I'm the first user and it's a admin
[04:14] <izinucs> R-800_, are you on the live cd now?
[04:14] <pen> bobertdos, it was there before
[04:14] <pen> bobertdos, but somehow I forgot what I did and that icon disappeared
[04:14] <pen> bobertdos, I suspect it went offscreen
[04:14] <bobertdos> pen: I mean, are you running the config editor as just yourself (not root)
[04:15] <R-800_> izinucs: I'm not running Ubuntu at all right now, nor the CD, no.  I can't access my Ubuntu partition without GRUB, and I can't get online with the Live CD alone (because my network adapter drivers aren't on the CD).
[04:15] <bobertdos> pen: I don't see how it could go offscreen unless you're running dual monitors or something.
[04:15] <fignuts> hi
[04:16] <fignuts> is there a video and audio stream recorder for linux?
[04:16] <pen> bobertdos, I'm running as myself of course
[04:16] <izinucs> R-800_, ok.. you have two ways of fixing grub.. boot to the live cd and follow the instruction  from the links or google for "supergrub" disk and download  and burn.  It's handy to have around anyway..
[04:16] <GT> So, besides a few other very mysterious problems having to do with compiling, I'd been having an intermittent problem that kept me from shutting down properly. Something rather like this message: http://pastebin.com/d5b90f83 would repeat over, and over , and over again, endlessly. So, I followed a recommendation on the forums saying I should change my SATA operation mode from non-RAID to RAID. This seemed like a stupid idea to me, and it was. now
[04:16] <pen> bobertdos, I remember I take all the icons on the desktop and move them to other folders, then after that the trash bin disappeared
[04:17] <GT> Can anyone help me fix this, or if not, how do you get a new install of Ubuntu to recognize an already-existing separate /home partition?
[04:17] <R-800_> izinucs: Supergrub sounds promising, and as you say, may be good to have on hand.  But there may be a problem, unless there is some way to do this "burning" after having booted from the Live CD (which, in my mind, sounds unlikely).
[04:18] <izinucs> R-800_, burn from windows.. as long as you have something to burn an iso.
[04:18] <R-800_> izinucs: I don't.  Could you suggest something that's good, for free?
[04:18] <izinucs> !iso | R-800_
[04:19] <bobertdos> pen: Well, you could always try deleting all the gconf related folders in your home directory, thereby reverting everything to default and trying again.........
[04:19] <izinucs> R-800_, hang on .. I'll check in another location
[04:19] <R-800_> izinucs: I'd appreciate it.  Thanks.  I have bad luck with general links to software.  I never find just what I'm looking for.
[04:20] <pen> bobertdos, but I have changed something in gconf and I think I need that
[04:21] <Batty4> I was curious about alias assignments for Ubuntu, they don't seem to save.  Do I need to place them in .bash_profile or something?
[04:21] <bobertdos> pen: What is it you've changed?
[04:21] <izinucs> Does anyone have the name of a program to burn iso's from windows.. something reliable and "free" for R-800 ?
[04:21] <Batty4> Such as alias ll=ls -la --color=auto
[04:21] <genii> izinucs: CD Burner XP Pro
[04:21] <Batty4> Forgot apostrophes. :(
[04:21] <chris127> so, i really need an ftp client that can xfer an entire site root (obviously not 'ftp')
[04:22] <chris127> yahoo doesn't even let me use sftp (shell)
[04:22] <genii> R-800_: http://cdburnerxp.se/
[04:22] <bobertdos> R-800_: I think the Nero Burning Rom would be enough, wouldn't it?
[04:22] <chris127> I would love to tarball my site, send it, shell in, and extract it.
[04:22] <chris127> but i can't
[04:22] <chris127> so i need to upload the entire site
[04:22] <chris127> file by file
[04:22] <pen> bobertdos, like custom menu icon someother stuff for the panel and something else I forgot
[04:22] <chris127> i tried binaries for filezilla
[04:23] <chris127> but that didn't work
[04:23] <FloodBot1> chris127: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[04:23] <R-800_> genii, thanks.
[04:23] <genii> R-800_: np
[04:23] <izinucs> R-800_, http://cdburnerxp.se/
[04:23] <GT> Yeah... Does anyone know how to get a new install of Ubuntu to recognize an existing /home partition?
[04:23] <Tarantulafudge> chris127: I've always been fond of ncftp
[04:23] <izinucs> GT, change the referance in /etc/fstab
[04:23] <GT> That's just what I'll need to do. It'll fix my other problems, too...
[04:23] <chris127> Tarantulafudge: i never thought to use netcat
[04:24] <chris127> how do i install on ubuntu?
[04:24] <akio> How do I get my irda port to show up in /dev ?
[04:24] <GT> Oh, so just install as normal from LiveCD, then change the references in that?
[04:24] <chris127> i am very use to extract, configure, reconfigure, reconfigure, make, install
[04:24] <genii> chris127: Add/Remove Programs
[04:24] <chris127> i'll look into that ;)
[04:24] <Tarantulafudge> chris127: I don't think its called netcat
[04:24] <izinucs> GT, that's one way to do it.. durning install.. makes it easy.. just don't format it.
[04:25] <R-800_> izinucs: I went to the supergrubdisk.org website.  I'm assuming the ISO is under the "Download CDROM" link?
[04:25] <Tarantulafudge> chris127: its just a more advanced ftp client
[04:25] <sullyva86> what is a good way for moving files back and forth between an ubuntu host and an xp vm?
[04:25] <izinucs> R-800_, yep.. probably.. never used it myself but have heard good things about it.
[04:25] <Prophecy> ubuntu rocks !
[04:25] <R-800_> izinucs: Okay, thanks.
[04:25] <Prophecy> im fully diggin it so far
[04:26] <izinucs> sullyva86, just share a directory on ubuntu and log in from xp
[04:26] <loulinkj7> Hey this is really a general question but how do I get ubuntu 8.04 to not throttle signal strength of my netgear wireless card?  Should I use another kernel patch other than that standard one that comes with the cd?
[04:26] <Tarantulafudge> loulinkj7: does it?
[04:27] <XeKtRuM> hello
[04:27] <loulinkj7> Apparently I'm not entirely sure.  It might be in some mode that it's trying to conserver power perhaps?
[04:27] <GT> izinucs: PM?
[04:27] <GT> Oh.
[04:27] <sullyva86> izinucs: but what if i don't want people on the network having access to it?
[04:28] <XeKtRuM> i have some problems with my sound
[04:28] <izinucs> sullyva86, you have to log into the shell using your ubuntu uname and password .. if nobody knows that then your safe
[04:28] <dors> sullyva86: you could use a unix shell inside the vm
[04:28] <Jordan_U> sullyva86: Whatever VM you are using probably has a feature for making certain directories on the host available to the guest
[04:28] <regeya> hah.
[04:28] <dors> that if thr vm has no access to the drives
[04:28] <XeKtRuM> so i would like to know if theres any danger if I just reintall alsa or something like that?
[04:29] <dors> i use tcp/ip to get things in/out of vms
[04:29] <bobertdos> XeKtRuM: Alsa is still in Hardy, for legacy support purposes. You can fully switch to it in System->Preferences->Sound and through gstreamer-properties.
[04:29] <sullyva86> Jordan_U: OH its virtualbox i just installed it
[04:30] <dr3mro> my ubuntu periodically became irresponsive and get a black screen with vertical lines ?? how to diagnose the problem ???
[04:31] <sullyva86> Jordan_U: It says something about shared folders i'll try adding one that way
[04:31] <dors> periodically dr3mro ?
[04:31] <Tarantulafudge> stupid mp3 thingy
[04:31] <dr3mro> dors, accedintally not after a specific action
[04:31] <dr3mro> dors, from time to time
[04:31] <dors> are you sure its your ubuntu?
[04:32] <dors> and not a thing like cabbles or so
[04:32] <dors> weird bug
[04:32] <orbisvicis> anyone gotton the ms nfs client to connect to linux/ubuntu nfs ?
[04:32] <TopBunny88> Don't use evolution if you use att for eamil
[04:33] <dors> what video chipset you have dr3mro ?
[04:36] <orbisvicis> whats a good package/daemon that'll graphically analyze log files and generate html or images ?
[04:37] <spiritssight> what program would you use for making pubications like flyer, posters, banners, biz cards etc
[04:37] <GT> Scribus is pretty good.
[04:37] <n3lls> can someone tell me how to install AWN svn?
[04:39] <axeus> Hello.
[04:39] <bobertdos> n3lls: Are you sure you want to build from source? AWN should be in the universe repo.
[04:39] <axeus> Trying to configure my ftp daemon with pureadmin. And when I launched it I noticed I can create virtual users but they disappear when the dialog closes.
[04:39] <axeus> Also I get the log message: "[WARNING] Authentication failed for user [ftpuser]"
[04:40] <axeus> And I think I remember why now. :)
[04:40] <axeus> haha
[04:40] <n3lls> bobertdos:  yeah, i need to use some plugins as im removing all panels
[04:40] <axeus> No hmm, the pureadmin created the FTPUser and now it can't authenticate itself? 0.o
[04:42] <XeKtRuM> bobertdos, thnx but i think i did not explain what is really happening to me
[04:43] <XeKtRuM> if I enable ESD or System sounds I cant see youtube videos or similars
[04:43] <XeKtRuM> and recently if I enable system sounds i dont hear anything
[04:44] <XeKtRuM> so i was wondering if maybe i could just reinstall alsa or something
[04:44] <XeKtRuM> xD
[04:44] <XeKtRuM> other thing is that my default sound device it isnt /dev/dsp its /dev/dsp1
[04:45] <dr3mro> dors intel centrino 950gm
[04:45] <XeKtRuM> maybe thats the problem=
[04:45] <bobertdos> XeKtRuM: I still recommend trying what I initially said, and also reading the wiki. Have you read that yet?
[04:45] <bobertdos> XeKtRuM: There's a whole entry on troubleshooting audio.
[04:46] <keithclark> Hi everyone.  I have an ATI all in wonder card here and I was just wondering if there was a way to get video out of the svideo input
[04:46] <XeKtRuM> bobertdos, i will take a look at it
[04:46] <Vezir> LOL RESTART :awesome:
[04:46] <XeKtRuM> thanxs anyway
[04:46] <ballzee> are there readers like a cdrom for 8mm camcorder tapes ?
[04:46] <bobertdos> !sound > XeKtRuM
[04:47] <Gamma-X> anyone using an intel 4965 ?
[04:47] <bobertdos> n3lls: Well, do you know where the repo is? I can't seem to find it. If you install subversion, the easiest thing to do is to check out (co) the repo.
[04:48] <keisangi> hi there, i'm having troubles with intrepid ibex alpha and network manager.. every time i reboot i have to setup my network configuration manualy, network manager doesn't work at all
[04:48] <keisangi> it's simple ethernet connection, no wireless or any exotic stuff
[04:48] <dr3mro> dors, ? intel 950 gm
[04:48] <dors> intel chipsets used to have some problems in some distros, because other drivers than the intel go to the xorg.conf... the correct there is the intel
[04:49] <dr3mro> dors, laptop ??chipset
[04:49] <keisangi> what you i do ?
[04:49] <keisangi> what could i do
[04:49] <bobertdos> keisangi: Intrepid questions belong in #ubuntu+1
[04:49] <keisangi> #ubuntu+1 ? ok i try to go there
[04:49] <n3lls> bobertdos:  i have no clue where the repo is. i was considering compiling from source but a repo would be amazing
[04:49] <ryan__> I am trying to setup VirtualBox; however, when the setup screen gets to the formating part, the entire process just comes to a stop and fails.  Any advice?
[04:50] <keithclark> Ok, I will do it from windows for the time being.  Thanks.
[04:51] <troseph> !!!!!!!!!!!!
[04:51] <bobertdos> n3lls: Well, I was talking about a source repo, but I can't seem to find one. I also don't know enough about the project to know what is and is not necessary. I would certainly think the binaries for the extra plugins would be in Universe too, but maybe not.
[04:52] <Gamma-X> I tried installing new drivers for my wireless card and now i cant use my wireless card how can i reinstall my old drivers that auto recognized my wireless card?
[04:52] <XeKtRuM> there's nothing showing how to change my sound device from /dev/dsp1 to /dev/dsp
[04:52] <XeKtRuM> it is possible to do that?
[04:53] <alec> im trying to install xubuntu on an old ppc mac, and i need some help.
[04:54] <genii> alec: There are a few ppl in #ubuntu-powerpc , some might be around
[04:54] <bobertdos> XeKtRuM: Which one were you reading? Because the SoundTroubleShootingGuide has a section on changing defaults.
[04:55] <alec> genii: thanks
[04:55] <R_YoYo_R> hello all
[04:55] <genii> alec: If it's pre 603 you may be out of luck, the 601 etc linux for those is best Yellow Dog or NetBSD
[04:56] <alec> genii: im not sure if it is or not
[04:56] <XeKtRuM> o:
[04:56] <pirish> Anyone here gotten a HVR 1800 TV Tuner to work with analog?
[04:56] <chill> got a problem, tried oss v4 to fix a problem with vmware audio; didnt work; tried to go back to alsa; cant get it working again; what is the easiest way to install driver/alsa config for stac9750 (onboard sound card)?
[04:56] <alec> genii: im not sure if it is or not: its an os x ibook
[04:56] <genii> alec: You should be OK then
[04:56] <SaintYossarian> Hello, updated to FF 3.02 today on Ubuntu 8.04, now Microsoft Office Live will not load.  Any ideas?
[04:57] <R_YoYo_R> SaintYossarian, errors?
[04:57] <chill> SaintYossarian: you got a way to test it in firefox 3.02 in windows or mac?
[04:57] <genii> SaintYossarian: Use OpenOffice ?
[04:57] <SaintYossarian> genii: Not an option.
[04:57] <XeKtRuM> bobertdos, sorry i didnt see it, index 0 means that device will be on /dev/dsp?
[04:57] <SaintYossarian> chill:: No, unfortunately.
[04:57] <jigp> hello how to open .docm ?openoffice 2.4.1 cannot open this file docm
[04:57] <bobertdos> XeKtRuM: most likely
[04:58] <troseph> SaintYossarian: try using the agent switcher, it works for me
[04:58] <XeKtRuM> but : cat /proc/asound/modules only list two modules
[04:58] <chill> jigp where did you get it from ?
[04:58] <XeKtRuM> and both are the same
[04:58] <alterscape> question for ubuntu server 8.04 x86:  Trying to install on an older Dell Precision 350, which has two SCSI drives that the installer mounts as /sda and /sdb.  Whole installation works (partitioning /sda as /root) but the grub installer writes onto "hd0" (which doesn't exist) and I can't boot the install.  I've been googling around and can't figure out how to reinstall grub from the install cd..
[04:58] <bobertdos> jigp: docm or docx?
[04:58] <XeKtRuM> snd_hda_intel
[04:58] <R_YoYo_R> i have heard of docx but not docm
[04:59] <izinucs> docm has macros embeded
[05:00] <SaintYossarian> troseph:  Microsoft message implies that the problem is the OS, not the browser, will agent switcher resolve?
[05:00] <jigp> bobertdos : .docm
[05:00] <chill> anyone got a link for a tutorial to reinstall a sound card? its all fubar, doesnt even list under lsmod and /proc/asound does not exist anymore, looking for alsa configuration
[05:00] <bobertdos> XeKtRuM: I guess I'd just say try a different order, whatever you feel like.
[05:00] <bobertdos> jigp: Which I'm assuming is docx + macros?
[05:00] <XeKtRuM> ~
[05:00] <XeKtRuM> ¬¬
[05:01] <izinucs> bobertdos, is a format in office 97, 2000 etc
[05:01] <XeKtRuM> but how do I do that
[05:01] <XeKtRuM> if both modules are the same
[05:01] <XeKtRuM> snd_hda_intel
[05:01] <danbh_intrepid> !home > chill
[05:02] <bobertdos> izinucs: ah, I see
[05:02] <sp0k34> thats what she said
[05:02] <danbh_intrepid> chill: if you have a separate /home, its easy to reinstall, and many times, the easiest way to get things working again
[05:02] <jigp> bobertdos: its .docm ...
[05:03] <jigp> izinucs: 2007...not 2000..
[05:03] <alec> genii: do you know how to install xubuntu without loading the disk and going through all the setup, is there a way i can boot to terminal or something?
[05:03] <izinucs> jigp, in your case but the file format is also available in 2000
[05:04] <bobertdos> jigp: hold on, there was a tutorial for modding OpenOffice to do this using the Novell packages. Let me see if I can find it........although it was for docx, don't know if the same mod works for docm
[05:04] <genii> alec: I have previously set up netboot server on a PC which will install to a mac box. But I don't have access to it right now to help you much
[05:04] <izinucs> alec, if you have ubuntu installed and you want xubuntu. then... sudo apt-get install xubuntu-desktop.. log out .. then on the password entry screen change sessions to xdm or xfce
[05:04] <dors> namaste nice people... c ya all l8rzzz
[05:04] <danbh_intrepid> !fixgrub > alterscape
[05:05] <alec> izinucs, no i have a pc that i have ubuntu installed on, this is an old mac someone gave me with os x on it.
[05:05] <izinucs> alec, ah.. I'll leave it to others with more experience with that.
[05:05] <alec> but  for some reason the disk runs so slow i cant install it by going through the setup wizard thing
[05:05] <alterscape> danbh_intrepid: thank you
[05:08] <chilli0_> has anyone got Grid wars to install and work propely?
