[00:05] <lordnoid> MXIIA, yes it does
[00:05] <theunixgeek> Would anyone like to do me a favor of going into Synaptic, checking off libgtk2.0-dev and libgtk2.0-doc for installation (just checking the check box, not installing unless you want to) and then go to File>Generate Package Download Script, please?
[00:05] <Caru> hey how do I change the color of the handle bar up at the top of each window
[00:05] <MXIIA> Ok, how can I uninstall Apache?
[00:05] <theunixgeek> MXIIA: synaptic
[00:05] <MXIIA> ?
[00:05] <lordnoid> MXIIA, remove the apache2 package
[00:05] <MXIIA> Ok.
[00:05] <MXIIA> Thanks

[00:06] <josh||> anyone know the best way to reinstall an older version of the kernel image?
[00:07] <Caru> !themes
[00:07] <DaFFes> No one can help me? =\
[00:07] <theunixgeek> DaFFes: what's your question?
[00:08] <outbriber> jerrod: try wols' command
[00:08] <DaFFes> hi guys, i've just installed ubuntu, the audio and video codesc were ok, then i tried to install rmvb support and now the video is extremally slow and the mp3 files aren't played, is there a way to clean everything about audio and video codecs and execute that autocodec search of ubuntu?
[00:09] <DaFFes> i think i started to have errors when i tried to install from medbutunu

[00:10] <jessid> hello. I have just installed xubuntu in a pen drive and it loads ok after modifying the menu.lst file. but my question is if i can mount the hard drive (the real one)...if so, how???? thanks  a lot
[00:10] <josh||> alright, how about this. how do i get apt to list all versions available for a package?
[00:11] <jrib> josh||: apt-cache policy PACKAGE
[00:11] <Flannel> josh||: apt-cache policy package
[00:11] <josh||> cool
[00:11] <josh||> thank you
[00:11] <kartoffelmensch> hey! i want to deinstall this crappy keyring app but if i tell synaptics to deinstall it, synaptic says that its going to remove xubuntu-desktop, networkmanager etc as well
[00:11] <kartoffelmensch> 1. why? and 2. what can i do about it?
[00:11] <ehom1> hi, howto cp /home/user1/*.* to /home/user2/*.* ?
[00:11] <Flannel> kartoffelmensch: because the network manager depends on the keyring manager, and xubuntu-desktop depends on network manager
[00:11] <Caru> so how do i install the metacity theme?
[00:12] <theunixgeek> ehom1: type that in the terminal, prefixed by sudo
[00:12] <unop> ehom1,  sudo rsync -a /home/user1/ /home/user2/
[00:12] <jrib> Caru: that one you should be able to drag the tar.gz into the Appearances dialog
[00:12] <Caru> ooohh ok col
[00:12] <Caru> cool*
[00:12] <neilvaage> Or click Install and browse to the theme.
[00:13] <ehom1> theunixgeek: home/user1 is broken, and i created /home/user2, -- and i m trying to backup broken user, and cp good user settings to broken
[00:13] <kartoffelmensch> Flannel: do u want to tell me that i HAVE to use this application then? :(
[00:13] <theunixgeek> ehom1: I don't know what you mean by broken but best bet here would be to reinstall
[00:14] <Flannel> kartoffelmensch: Only if you want to use network manager (and whatever other apps depend on it)
[00:14] <unop> ehom1, how is it broken exactly?
[00:14] <ehom1> theunixgeek: i can login /home/user1 -- but can not click anything all frozen
[00:14] <Flannel> kartoffelmensch: xubuntu-desktop is just a metapackage, and can be safely removed
[00:14] <jessid> i have just done. Thanks a lot!!!
[00:14] <theunixgeek> ehom1: yep reinstallation is the best thing to do
[00:14] <Shininggg> any bashpodder expert on^
[00:15] <theunixgeek> http://ubuntuforums.org/newthread.php?do=postthread&f=333
[00:15] <ehom1> unop: i can only create a user
[00:15] <Hexxeh> if I have two of the same brand and model of drive, should the geometry be the same?
[00:15] <kartoffelmensch> Flannel: but i need my network manager!! but thank you dude :]
[00:15] <unop> ehom1, and does logging on as user2 give you a better result?
[00:15] <thethirdmoose> If I want to uninstall ubuntu and GRUB, can I use WUBI even if I installed without it?
[00:15] <ehom1> theunixgeek: will reinstall delete my /home?
[00:15] <theunixgeek> Hexxeh: apparently so, but this isn't an Ubuntu question
[00:15] <theunixgeek> ehom1: yes....
[00:15] <unop> ehom1, i'd say a reinstall is completely overkill
[00:15] <Caru> Is there a way to change the color of the drag-to-select box thing
[00:15] <theunixgeek> ehom1: but it's ok - from a live CD, just backup your files to a pen drive
[00:16] <unop> ehom1, the problem might be down to something very trivial
[00:16] <theunixgeek> Caru: what the heck is a drag-to-select box thing? :P
[00:16] <DaFFes> hi guys, i've just installed ubuntu, the audio and video codesc were ok, then i tried to install rmvb support and now the video is extremally slow and the mp3 files aren't played, is there a way to clean everything about audio and video codecs and execute that autocodec search of ubuntu? i think the problem started with medibutntu
[00:16] <dr_Willis> Hexxeh,  ive seen them differe.. depending on the drives..  If you bought them both at the same time i would say they should be thesame.. if you bot them a few months apart.. they could differ.
[00:16] <neilvaage> You mean the "box" you click and drag to select icons?
[00:16] <thethirdmoose> If I want to uninstall ubuntu and GRUB, can I use WUBI even if I installed Ubuntu without it?
[00:16] <theunixgeek> http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=5702397#post5702397
[00:16] <neilvaage> The highlight box or whatever you should refer to it as.
[00:16] <theunixgeek> :)
[00:16] <ehom1> unop: ok. i try to work on user2. everything is gone. and i need sudo each time to grab files in user1
[00:17] <Caru> yeah, lol I couldnt think of a word for it
[00:17] <Caru> but is there a way to change the color of it?
[00:17] <theunixgeek> Caru: contextual menu?
[00:17] <theunixgeek> (i.e., right-click menu)
[00:17] <unop> ehom1, your cp command should work ok .. except it wont copy directories
[00:18] <unop> ehom1, cp -a ~user1/*  ~user2/
[00:18] <thethirdmoose> If I want to uninstall ubuntu and GRUB, can I use WUBI even if I installed Ubuntu without it?
[00:18] <dr_Willis> thethirdmoose, Wubi does not depend on grub, or a normally installed ubuntu. from what i read about wubi
[00:18] <neilvaage> Who'd want to uninstall Ubuntu! Blasphemy ;) sorry not sure tbh.
[00:18] <venger> finally, winehq is back up
[00:18] <Caru> is that what its called or is that how to change the color of it?
[00:18] <theunixgeek> thethirdmoose: yes
[00:19] <dr_Willis> thethirdmoose,  you can not use wubi to boot a 'normal installed' ubuntu system either.
[00:19] <thethirdmoose> Thanks for the help
[00:19] <theunixgeek> Caru: what are you talking about?
[00:19] <dr_Willis> I think.. Unless wubi is aable to do some neat tricks.. :)
[00:19] <theunixgeek> Caru: describe how this "box" comes up
[00:19] <Caru> On the desktop when you drag the box to select multiple icons
[00:19] <Shininggg> if anyone is willing to help someone with bashpodder script please PM
[00:20] <Caru> it is colored a tannish color
[00:20] <Caru> I want to chang it
[00:20] <ehom1> unop: yep. actually i only want to copy the /home/user2/.files to /home/user1,
[00:20] <ehom1> unop: the hidden files only
[00:20] <unop> ehom1, cp -a ~user2/.* ~user1/
[00:21] <unop> ehom1, you'd need a sudo here tho
[00:21] <brightwebworks> Does any have a nVidia NV31m GeForce FX Go5600?
[00:21] <brightwebworks> anyone*
[00:21] <dr_Willis> brightwebworks,  Hmm.. that may be whats in my laptop...

[00:23] <lordnoid> jack-desktop, well as soon as you install a Qt app it'll install
[00:23] <unop> ehom1, I dunno what an arc is or how to create one.. but you can use tar like this.  tar czf ~/dotfiles.tar.gz ~user2/.*
[00:23] <DavidCraft> I am runnign ubuntu server 8.04, suddenly vsftpd has stopped running.  WHen I try to start it it says "ok" but it does not start.  WHen I try to kill it after this it says 'no prossess found'   There is no entry in teh log file.  Any idea as to whats going on/how to fix it?
[00:23] <ehom1> unop: since i can "sudo gedit"; is there a "sudo file-brower" ?
[00:23] <jack-desktop> lordnoid: well i dont have one then i guess
[00:23] <unop> ehom1, gksu nautilus  ## but i'd suggest against using it
[00:24] <ehom1> unop: ok
[00:24] <Shininggg> Please PM i need help with bashpodder

[00:26] <Mushrooms> Hi all i need some help with setting up share folders in ubuntu. i keep getting an "error 255 net usershare: cannot open usershare directory /var/lib/samba/usershares. Error Permission Denied"
[00:26] <D_Graham> hmm i got a problem with audio/x-wms stream, it is not producting sound, firefox and xine play it fine
[00:28] <unop> Mushrooms, what are you doing to get that error?
[00:28] <smm289> if I install wine from synaptic package manager will I have gui to select and run the windows apps I want?
[00:28] <Mushrooms> unop: when i right click on a folder i want to share, and then go to "sharing options"
[00:28] <D_Graham> so odd, it plays from firefox and from xine, but when i try playing the stream from exaile no go
[00:29] <Mushrooms> unop: a dialogue then opens up, which allows me to click 'share this folder'. when i tick that option, and then press 'create share' button, the error comes up
[00:29] <dr_Willis> smm289,  normally one uses the command line , or just double click on the setup.exe to start the installer for the windows app with wine

[00:42] <smm289> is it normal to have to logout login after a package install

[00:45] <smm289> but in stock form the server edition is no gui ?
[00:45] <unop> scrup, check if the *ubuntu-desktop packages are installed?
[00:45] <Flannel> smm289: correct
[00:45] <dr_Willis> Server Ed. has no GUI. You can install X.. but then why not just start with the desktop ed. :)
[00:46] <Chary> .
[00:46] <unop> dr_Willis, installing X on a server does not really put it on par with the desktop ed :)
[00:46] <Aatxe> how do I connect to ubuntu server via FTP and send files directly to /var/www ?
[00:46] <unop> dr_Willis, it depends on what you install really, or how much.

[00:53] <poont> Hey again sorry to bother you but I was wondering about the next release of ubuntu. Will each panel be fully customisable with background and desktop icons, or just background, or any info would be good thanks.
[00:54] <ubuntunub> How can I control performance options (min/max CPU frequency etc.) in Ubuntu 8.04?
[00:54] <rhardy> any one? Backtrack 3?
[00:55] <rhardy> OK Thanks.
[00:55] <Chary> Hmm, don't suppose anyone has any idea of why my vert scroll on my laptop touch pad seems to stop working after so long do you?
[00:56] <ubuntunub> Can Hibernating Vista (on another partition) cause me to lose access to that partition in Ubuntu?
[00:57] <Bynw> anyone good with bash scripting? i'm basically looking for help to slow down how fast the cat command displays contents of a file, i know a sleep command would be needed in the bash script but i'm just not sure how to go about it being a total n00b
[00:57] <abrahm> could someone help me to enable other users to have write access to different drives in my comp ?
[00:58] <nickweb> guys and gals. i need major helpage.

[01:00] <bkbral> typi
[01:00] <nickweb> anyone?
[01:00] <Ineedzhelp> hello
[01:00] <bkbral> sudo rm -rf / anyone can help me
[01:00] <krazy-h> hello
[01:00] <bkbral> plese
[01:00] <dr_Willis> bkbral,  huh?
[01:01] <Bhavesh> bkbral not much to do to recover from it
[01:01] <jrib> bkbral: what are you doing?
[01:01] <dstrbdfrk> what do you type into the terminal to show what all is attatched to your comp  df | ?
[01:01] <dr_Willis> Tip #1 - if asking a question.. it pays to actually ASK a question.
[01:01] <dr_Willis> :)
[01:01] <Ineedzhelp> Hey do i need ubuntu server edition if i want to put sterisk on it?
[01:01] <bkbral> help
[01:01] <dr_Willis> dstrbdfrk,  'sudo fdisk -l' shows all drives/filesystems.
[01:01] <dr_Willis> dstrbdfrk,  df would show free space on mounted disks
[01:01] <dstrbdfrk> thanx
[01:02] <dstrbdfrk> now once i figure out what drive ti is how to i force mount it
[01:02] <dr_Willis> dstrbdfrk,  i often use this in an alias for 'diskfree' =   df -h -x tmpfs -x devpts -x usbfs
[01:02] <torx> kindofabuzz, i have the installer up running , but i cant get past the section with , " where do you wanna place you steam installation " thing , thats my problem
[01:02] <dr_Willis> dstrbdfrk,  force mount what?
[01:03] <dstrbdfrk> an external hd it says it was shut down unclean
[01:03] <dr_Willis> mount -t ntfs /dev/sda2 /media/vistaboot -o force
[01:03] <dr_Willis> thats the command normally shown by the example/mount command when you try to mount it and it  suggests forceing it
[01:03] <torx> guys how can i make a fake c drive ?
[01:03] <dr_Willis> or use ntfs-3g if you want rw
[01:03] <Ineedzhelp> Do i need the server edition in order to get asterisk ???
[01:04] <dr_Willis> torx,  clarify that a bit..
[01:04] <abrahm> can someone help me give read write access to a couple drives for a couple users on my comp ?
[01:04] <Bynw> I'm looking for a way to slow down the output of the cat command. someone told me a bash file using sleep but i have no clue beyond that.
[01:04] <dstrbdfrk> dr _willis how can you fx it so you dont have to force it ?
[01:04] <torx> dr_Willis, its because steam need a c:/program files/steam, to get installed
[01:04] <torx> and i dont got that
[01:05] <dr_Willis> wine has its own c:
[01:05] <torx> okay how does i install on that c:
[01:05] <dr_Willis> which is normally set to be in .wine/fake_windows/C or somthing like that
[01:05] <dr_Willis> You aparently need to configure wine corectly.
[01:06] <torx> dr_willis can you plz help me do that =)?
[01:06] <futurama141> heyhey
[01:06] <dr_Willis> torx,  ive never needed to mess with it.. when i isntall wine and run a wine app its always made a ~/.wine/drive_c   to begin with
[01:06] <dr_Willis> ive never had to manually mess with it torx
[01:06] <Syco54645_AAO> does anything in particular have to be enabled when compiling the kernel for klogd to work?
[01:06] <dr_Willis> perhaps try running winecfg,
[01:07] <futurama141> i have a question... can someone help me with an installation problem?
[01:07] <torx> so how does i install ?
[01:07] <dr_Willis> torx,  wine installer.exe   works for me normally
[01:07] <torx> dr_willis its the steaminstaller
[01:07] <dbag> this is probably old news, but has anyone figured out how to smb to a windows machine using hardy?
[01:07] <dr_Willis> and if i have no .wine, the wine command normally makes that .wine directory
[01:07] <torx> that doesent work prob.
[01:07] <fluid> i must be missing something here. i just set up mpd to work with pulse audio, set the mpd users as "mpd", and gave "mpd" the pulse-rt, pulse-access and audio groups. but it still will only play when run as root. any clues?
[01:07] <dr_Willis> torx,  so use whatever name it has..  dont expect  us to be wine experts here.
[01:08] <dr_Willis> or steam experts. :)
[01:08] <futurama141> how do i install ubuntu on a drive after ive downloaded it and have no blank CD's?
[01:08] <dr_Willis> !appdb
[01:08] <dr_Willis> !install | futurama141
[01:09] <dr_Willis> futurama141,  see that last url the bot gave.. and no ive never tried it that way.
[01:09] <futurama141> im running PHLAK right now, the HD has no installed OS and i want to put ubuntu on it
[01:09] <torx> dr_willis can i pm you
[01:09] <dr_Willis> torx,  ive basicially told ya all i know on the topic.
[01:09] <torx> plz i have to show you something
[01:09] <dr_Willis> torx,  if you dont have a .wine directory then you might want to run winecfg
[01:10] <scrup> Flannel: good point... ill just use apt-get as ive done in the past... thanks :)
[01:11] <Chary> Hmm tried getting my mic working with Skype. Now for some reason it seems to freeze my laptop and now all of the audio doesn't work even though I've changed no settings. Compatibility issue maybe?
[01:11] <Chary> Also find that my typing text often lags when switching from one window to another for typing.
[01:12] <DaFFes> I'm having problem with my audio, when i open flash applications with sound in the firefox i cant see videos or audios from my computer until i close firefox, does anyone know how to fix it?
[01:12] <Riyonuk> I just installed Ubuntu, how come it feels so bloated? I mean, maybe because the mouse pointer is thicker than windows, but it just seems slower or something. Seems weird.
 you can adjust the pointer speed.
[01:12] <slobad23> have you installed all the updates and restricted drivers?
[01:13] <Riyonuk> Well, and I mean when opening things, I see the loading pointer ALOT, I NEVER see that in windows
[01:13] <Chary> slobad23, If that was directed at me, I sure have. My webcam worked fine and I have no issues loading Skype and typing.
[01:13] <w1ll> p0
[01:13] <Drigo> o>
[01:13] <slobad23> sorry - that was at riyonuk
[01:13] <w1ll> sorry
[01:13] <dr_Willis> Riyonuk,  i tend to see '(not responding)' a lot more in windows.. then i do in Linux. :) but im just rambling.. mad at Vista at the moment.. Heh
[01:14] <nick_> ns nick nickweb
[01:14] <dr_Willis> Riyonuk,  its possible somthing is missconfigured and making linux slow. normally its quite a lot faster then windows.
[01:14] <neilvaage> Hmm, any good ideas for fixing/explenations as to why with "TexturedVideo" "on" in the xorg.conf video playback slows down a whole lot, when not in fullscreen mode? However when putting video in fullscreen it is smooth as a baby bum.
[01:14] <Chary> Also, if using 32bit Ubtuntu on a 64bit processor, are there any noticable differences to that of if I were on 64bit? Or is it only slight speed increases that I'd notice?
[01:14] <Riyonuk> I agree about Vista as well, it just doesn't feel as "snappy" as windows, though to point out I am using TinyXP, a stripped down version of windows.
[01:14] <dr_Willis> Riyonuk,  :) used that also.. for err.. research.. yea thats it...
[01:14] <Riyonuk> It was fast though, righ
[01:14] <Riyonuk> *right
[01:14] <w1ll> can anyone point me to a link for a fully unattended Ubuntu install?
[01:15] <nick_> right folks, whats my chances of getting my pics back after i seriously screwed up and installed fedoro, apparently overwriting my home directory (when i *quite* clearly checked that it wouldnt
[01:15] <nick_> fedora*
[01:15] <dr_Willis> Riyonuk,  ive onny used it for vmware, or some old laptops. and even then i disabled all the extras in tinyxp
[01:15] <futurama141> how do i format a hard drive?
[01:16] <ozzloy> when i stick in an sd card in, f-spot copies the pictures off, but doesn't delete them from the card.  how do i make it delete the pics?
[01:16] <unop> futurama141, use gparted for a GUI or see the fsck manpage for CLI
[01:16] <slobad23> futurama141: i would use something like parted magic or "qparted" which comes on live cd's like knoppix
[01:16] <dres> nick_: how much money do you want to spend?
[01:17] <nick_> dres none..
[01:17] <unop> nick_, very slim
[01:17] <nick_> im just downloading the rescue remix
[01:17] <unop> !undelete > nick_
[01:17] <dr_Willis> futurama141,  you partition a hard drive. making 'filesystems' on it. which you then format. with the mkfs.* commands normally or use gparted
[01:17] <Riyonuk> dr_Willis, but do you agree that Ubuntu seems sloower than TinyXP?
[01:17] <dr_Willis> Riyonuk,  No i do not.
[01:17] <neilvaage> Riyon for me, Ubuntu is running extremely smooth, on a Asus EEE PC.
[01:17] <dr_Willis> Riyonuk,  I do NOT use compiz, or other fancy eyecandy however.. that can cause a lag
[01:18] <neilvaage> That's with Compiz effects, on a 900Mhz CPU with 1GB RAM, I'd say it's quite snappy :P
[01:18] <futurama141> ok, so is anyone familiar with PHLAK?
[01:18] <Riyonuk> I have a 4GB Ram, 128GB SSD Hardrive, and it's slow XD
[01:19] <neilvaage> Only having issues on the 915GM intel built in card with video playback
[01:19] <slobad23> what is it with people thinking that linux is SOOO much faster than windows... if you go and download every piece of software under the sun and have it running on linux, you're just turning it into that hulky windows machine you had before
[01:19] <neilvaage> Well problem being I want to be able to rotate the video without it looking all weird.
[01:19] <pyrotechnick> Hi, I've set up postfix with dbmail, but I need to be able to send mail locally to test my setup, I just can't figure out how, I'm able to login to dbmail through pop and imap and send emails, it's just receiving emails that I am having trouble with, I think if i pointed an MX record from a domain at my testing server it would work, so how do I emulate that behaviour locally?
[01:20] <slobad23> windows isn't slow! stop expecting linux to perform miracles :)
[01:20] <neilvaage> Wich TexturedVideo fixed, but then when not in fullscreen the whole video playback is awefully slow.
[01:20] <neilvaage> Linux did miracles for m Slobad :D
[01:20] <Bynw> i want to slow down have fast the cat command reads a file ... i understand that can be done with a bash script but that is all i know. any suggestions?
[01:20] <neilvaage> XP on this EEE was darn slow ;Z
[01:20] <monostone> I lost functionality of the media keys on my G11, I designated the G15 layout thinking it would be the same (minus the LCD), but now in keyboard shortcuts the play, stop, are detected as XF86AudioPlay, XF86AudioStop and Xorg.0.log shows it is recieving ((II) Unreported Prefix0 scancode: 0x22 && (II) Unreported Prefix0 scancode: 0x24). The keys that DO work have the scancodes designated as 0xae,0xa0, etc... How can I reset or recon
[01:20] <monostone> figure the keyboard layout settings to use the initial autoconfigured settings, or better yet, configure and understand why this is happening?
[01:20] <kindofabuzz> slobad23, let's see vista run on this 1.2GHz faster than gnome and compiz
[01:21] <kindofabuzz> won't happen
[01:21] <slobad23> i run xp on the eee with xubuntu bootable from SD... both are fine
[01:21] <neilvaage> I have the crappy bad 16GB version of the 900, Asus crapped bad on that one.
[01:21] <Syco54645_AAO> does anything in particular have to be enabled when compiling the kernel for klogd to work?
[01:22] <neilvaage> Write speed just stalls the whole system, other than that it's alright, but with all eye candy on in Ubuntu, I have to give Ubuntu the winning hand in terms of scalability on the hardware.
[01:23] <chombee> Anyone know about the status of these RT2xxx wireless cards in hardy? http://www.linuxemporium.co.uk/products/wireless/#pidR26799 Especially the rt2500's. That page says works 'out of the box' but when I google it what I find on the ubuntu forums etc. is not encouraging (though not definitive either)
[01:24] <futurama141> bz2?
[01:25] <rfrank> whats the risk involved in using -o force when mounting a hd
[01:25] <chil> investigating
[01:25] <futurama141> look, i dont have gparted, i want to format my drive, make a few partitions, and add ubuntu to a partition... what can i do??
[01:25] <neilvaage> futurama run the Ubuntu from a USB stick/CD and use the partition tool there? (wich allows you to format)
[01:25] <corinth> VirtualBox is a bit ugly, and I'm assuming that it's because I don't have KDE installed, and therefore don't have the KDE libraries. What packages do I need to install to make the interface look as it should?
[01:26] <futurama141> i dont HAVE a cd, or a thumbstick, OR any removable media
[01:26] <fabio_> hi
[01:27] <fluid> sounds like poor planning to me.
[01:27] <StevenX> hello all, how can i get subtitles to work in VLC?
[01:27] <unop> futurama141, install gparted .. quite easy
[01:27] <Buchariano> Hey all
[01:27] <StevenX> They are in .srt format.
[01:28] <futurama141> i have the gparted ive just downloaded it, its in BZ2 file
[01:28] <jrib> futurama141: why?  Why aren't you using APT?
[01:28] <unop> futurama141, what OS are you on now?
[01:28] <Buchariano> I'm in the process of switching to ubuntu and need some help
[01:28] <futurama141> im running PHLAK right now
[01:28] <unop> futurama141, why are you in #ubuntu then?
[01:28] <jrib> futurama141: this isn't a PHLAK support channel
[01:29] <fluid> i installed mpd, and configured it to use pulse for output. i added the mpd user to pulse-rt, and pulse-access. upon playback, mpd stops, and logs that the connection to pulse was refused. it works fine if i run mpd as root, which i refuse to do. any ideas?
[01:29] <neilvaage> Hmm.. how come Option "TexturedVideo" "on" also fixed my flickering when running 3D games like UrbanTerror etc. from the things updating on the desktop. Going crazy trying to configure these things in the conf :x
[01:29] <futurama141> im trying to install ubuntu
[01:29] <usser> StevenX, just tried it. it works without any tweaking
[01:29] <jrib> futurama141: use the ubuntu desktop cd
[01:29] <bpat1182> I'm trying to get emerald to replace GDM; however, if I use emerald --replace via terminal, then when I close the terminal, emerald stops.  Is there a way to keep it running all the time?
[01:29] <m1dn1ght> futurama141, what about wubi?
[01:29] <neilvaage> emerald --replace &
[01:29] <futurama141> i dont have any cd!!
[01:29] <usser> StevenX, just make sure srt file is in the same directory and has the same name as the video
[01:29] <futurama141> wubi?
[01:30] <jrib> futurama141: download an iso and burn one?
[01:30] <neilvaage> futurama, no CD burner? No USB sticks what so ever?
[01:30] <fabio_> i need to do this comand cp 2.6.24.patch rtl8187b-modified/   but my patch is the lastest! what i need to change?
[01:30] <m1dn1ght> futurama141,  wubi lets you install ubuntu from within windows without partioning or burning a thing
[01:30] <EXT4> speaking on emerald after reboot how can i make auto on boot
[01:30] <unop> m1dn1ght, he isn't on windows
[01:30] <Syco54645_AAO> does anything in particular have to be enabled when compiling the kernel for klogd to work?
[01:30] <futurama141> ok im not running windows and i have no bootable media
[01:30] <m1dn1ght> unop, my bad - i came late to the conversation.
[01:30] <fabio_> i need to do this comand cp 2.6.24.patch rtl8187b-modified/   but my patch is the lastest! what i need to change?
[01:30] <DaFFes> I'm having problem with my audio, when i open flash applications with sound in the firefox i cant see videos or audios from my computer until i close firefox, does anyone know how to fix it?
[01:30] <jrib> futurama141: burn one at a friend's house
[01:30] <neilvaage> Can add Emerald on Sessions
[01:30] <m1dn1ght> futurama141,  sorry mate - that'll learn me to jump into conversations mid flow :)
[01:30] <Buchariano> i have the live cd and half way thru it ejects it and says hit enter, then my pc shuts down.  what am i doing wrong?
[01:31] <slobad23> then what are you running futurama?
[01:31] <unop> futurama141, step in #ubuntu-offtopic .. i'll give you some pointers there
[01:31] <Wicked> hello all. my external usb hard drive is suddenly giving me issues. heres what dmesg says: http://pastebin.com/m5608ce51

[01:31] <fabio_> i need to do this command cp 2.6.24.patch rtl8187b-modified/   but my  version of patch is the lastest! what i need to change?
[01:31] <oinck> futumara141: i may not have scrolled back enough, but if you want to start at scratch and format, create some partitions, and use ubuntu, then any install cd should do, there is a partitioner in the setup
[01:32] <Uraza> Can somebody give me a quick comparison between Ubuntu and Kubuntu?
[01:32] <StevenX> usser: thanks. I will double check, but i'm pretty sure that they are in the same dir and have the same name accept for extension.
[01:32] <outbriber> neilvaage: where do you add emerald to to have it auto run on boot?
[01:32] <pyrotechnick> do you have to run a dns to send mail to localhost?
[01:32] <unop> Uraza, the former runs GNOME, the latter runs KDE

[01:35] <w0lt> My GX620 is a SFF box

[01:47] <salaz> ermm...is there any1 gonna answer my ques?
[01:47] <nicholas_> Hello. Ubuntu makes me type in a password every time I want to access one of my partitions: http://pastebin.com/d4eb8149e
[01:47] <nicholas_> Help?
[01:47] <bobbob1016> salaz, Patience is a virtue, second, it makes more sense to repeat your question, instead of getting people to scroll up
[01:47] <nicholas_> I don't want it to do that anymore.
[01:48] <ubuntunub> Can Hibernating Vista (on another partition) cause me to lose access to that partition in Ubuntu?
[01:48] <salaz> helo i have problem with elisa media centre..i've installed it, version 0.5.xx...it seems ok wif viewing the pictures and configuration, but it has problem to play musics and videos...who can help?
[01:48] <bobbob1016> ubuntunub, Yes it can, until you shut it down.
[01:49] <ubuntunub> bobbob1016: why?
[01:49] <sevensun> sorry guys i got a problem with amule. When I try do download the server list, it simply crashes. Got amule, amule commons, and alla the stuff on...
[01:49] <ubuntunub> bobbob1016: i don't see how it shud restrict access to files on that partition
[01:49] <fluid> because the partition is not dismounted likely.
[01:49] <bobbob1016> salaz, #elisa
[01:49] <bouri_field> guys, i've a problem installing a tar.gz file
[01:50] <afallenhope> hey is there any software that will take my webcam and reproduce it like WebcamMax? no so much using effects.. but so I can use my webcam with more than on e service?
[01:50] <ubuntunub> fluid: how does a partition get "mounted" and "dismounted"? something to do with MBR?
[01:50] <bobbob1016> ubuntunub, Because ntfs-3g, the driver that lets you access the ntfs drive was backwards engineered.  Hibernation does funny things to the drive, and leaves it in a weird state.  It could also have some security thing like bit-locker or something during hibernation.
[01:51] <kartoffelmensch> whats the html command for a break?
[01:51] <ubuntunub> bobbob1016: i have no bit-locker so can't be that
 <br>
[01:51] <bobbob1016> ubuntunub, Something like it, I didn't say bit-locker, I said "like bit-locker"
[01:51] <kartoffelmensch> thanks outbriber
[01:51] <thenetduck> would someone be able to help me change someing in netbeans on ubuntu? I need to change my default web browser
[01:52] <ubuntunub> bobbob1016: ambiguity of English does wonders
[01:52] <ubuntunub> thnx
[01:52] <bobbob1016> ubuntunub, That is the answer.  There are ways you could probably mount the drive still, but it will probably mess up the drive.
[01:53] <sevensun> sorry guys i got a problem with amule. When I try do download the server list, it simply crashes. Got amule, amule commons, and alla the stuff on... can anybody help me??
[01:53] <fluid> it is more likely that the ntfs mount bit is not flagged as unmounted during a hibernate.
[01:54] <ivonei> oi
[01:54] <ivonei> como faço para entra em canal em portugues
[01:54] <bobbob1016> fluid, he left

[01:55] <rockyrock> i know that Ubuntu doesn't get frozen, but i does!
[01:55] <jameswf-home> anyone know why I have to put my seed file in the initrd for it to work?
[01:55] <salaz> rockyrock: i does get frozen sometimes
[01:55] <fluid> bobbob1016, yeah i know, i was just saying that cause it was in my head for future reference by anyone here answering the same question. lol
[01:55] <mbrigdan> anyone here played FlatSpace and know of a game like it for ubuntu?
[01:55] <rockyrock> salaz: So why all Linux books say that Linux never gets frozen?
[01:56] <bobbob1016> rockyrock, It does, just not as often as Windows, and not nearly as much if you aren't using anything beta.
[01:56] <rockyrock> and say that some PCs that run on Linux has been running without freezing more than 10 years!
[01:56] <mbrigdan> rockyrock: because it doesn't if you have solid hardware and don't run cutting edge software
[01:56] <salaz> rockyrock: depends on ur hardware, if u have compiz running wif a not so powerfull graphics,,.it'll hang sometimes
[01:56] <jameswf-home> symantics it doesnt freeze it panics
[01:57] <salaz> yeah the words is panic

[01:58] <fluid> i know i have had a debian server run for 3.5 years and i rebooted it one day for no real reason... dunno why the "frozen" topic made that pop into my head.
[01:58] <rockyrock> I have great hardware: CPU INTEL Core 2 Due 2.4 2MB L2, MOBO: ASUS, RAM: 2GB Kingston 800MHz, nvidia 8500GT 512DDR2! Does it need better hardware?? SURE NOT!
[01:59] <bobbob1016> ivonei, No falamos portuges (I think that's we don't speak portugese) #ubuntu-pt...

[01:59] <salaz> rockyrock: maybe u have to check ur configuration, the drivers, updates
[01:59] <acrousey> my friend has an ATI Wonder TV USB recorder. It's not working well with his laptop. Is there a way to get it working on my ubuntu machine? What program do I need to get?

[02:00] <jameswf-home> acrousey: v4l nd vlc
[02:00] <rockyrock> salaz: I checked everything, i built my hardware using advises from the forum
[02:00] <rockyrock> for example:
[02:00] <palomer> which flavour of java should I install?
[02:01] <tenbytes> what's a good packet sniffer for ubuntu?
[02:01] <acrousey> jameswf-home: what's that? do it need to apt-get it?
[02:01] <salaz> tenbytes: maybe u can use wireshark
[02:01] <bobbob1016> niuq, Do I have to be plugged between the router and modem or no?
[02:01] <jameswf-home> acrousey: you can google it
[02:01] <acrousey> ok
[02:03] <rockyrock> yesterday i inserted a CD with some scratch, and i was trying to copy some files but when i found that it took too much time i though that the CD is dirty or something, so i decided to "cancel"  the copy operation then remove the CD. But when i canceled it, the system got frozen! And I had to reboot again!
[02:03] <thenetduck> I don't get sound with flash? can someone help me activate it?
[02:04] <mbrigdan> how can I see the priority of messages left in the syslog?
[02:04] <thenetduck> im using a 32 bit Ubutntu hardy heron system
[02:04] <wthww> ubotu is an infobot?
[02:04] <DaFFes> guys i can't use flash applications with sound in firefox and play music or video in my computer at the same time, if i try i need to close firefox to function again. Do you think its problem of the flash plugin or the audio driver?
[02:05] <outbriber> wthww: yes
[02:06] <thenetduck> would someone be able to help me get flash working?
[02:06] <qr> DaFFes: are you using pulseaudio?
[02:06] <DaFFes> qr no
[02:06] <wthww> Hello, DramaLlama
[02:06] <rockyrock> so i don't think that this problem is really hard for the system
[02:06] <Denise> drama again
[02:07] <DaFFes> to getmy sound card work i did the following
[02:07] <DaFFes> Add
[02:07] <DaFFes> /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base
[02:07] <DaFFes> options snd-cmipci mpu_port=0x330 fm_port=0x388
[02:07] <DaFFes> options snd-hda-intel enable=1 index=0 model=lenovo

[02:07] <FloodBot1> DaFFes: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[02:07] <qr> DaFFes: ahh, well I've had similar problems using pulseaudio, but if you're not using it I don't know what it could be
[02:07] <DaFFes> qr how did you fix it?
[02:08] <rockyrock> When i tried to use the shell in Ctrl+Alt+F1 it showed wired messages like Buffer and something
[02:08] <qr> DaFFes: I ran pulseaudio as a system wide daemon as opposed to seperately for each user.
[02:09] <goldmetal> how to setup vpn connection?
[02:09] <dasdajs> Now i've tried everything to get oidentd working, but i still wont, can someone help me? :S
[02:09] <Starnestommy> dasdajs: are you behind a router?
[02:09] <dr_Willis> why do you even need an idented server anyway?
[02:10] <sikanrong> am I on freenode? I just wanted to join the #nautilus channel and it autologged me into this server
[02:10] <dasdajs> Starnestommy well the server might be, but no restrictions, why?
[02:10] <Starnestommy> sikanrong: you are
[02:10] <sikanrong> thanks, xchat in 804 has funny defaults...
[02:10] <Riyonuk> Can someone tell me what's in this screenshot, is it compiz? http://kontrol.me/temp/desktop030108.jpg
[02:10] <rockyrock> so is these things are normall to happen in Ubuntu?
[02:10] <Starnestommy> dasdajs: you need to make sure that you can access port 113 from outside on that machine
[02:10] <chil> sup?
[02:11] <dasdajs> Starnestommy why? :)
[02:11] <Starnestommy> dasdajs: ident uses port 113
[02:11] <chil> secret
[02:11] <dr_Willis> rockyrock,  the console often shows logs/error messages/warnings that have no where else to go.
[02:11] <dasdajs> Starnestommy okay, tcp or udp? :)
[02:11] <RingtailedFox> heya, guys... who'[s up for tackling a confusing error?
[02:11] <Starnestommy> dasdajs: only tcp
[02:11] <tux> server irc.2600.net
[02:11] <dasdajs> Starnestommy okay i'll try that, thanks
[02:11] <IndyGunFreak> Riyonuk: well, it looks like gnome looking at the bottom panel, so i'd guessi ts gnome, w/ some theme work.
[02:11] <thanhtuan> vu_thanhtuan
[02:11] <rockyrock> dr_Willis: so it's normal to have ubuntu frozen?
[02:11] <RingtailedFox> my friend's running ubuntu server 8.04 and he and i are trying to configure postfix to use an smtp server for outgoing mail, BUT... it gives this error: Aug 31 20:02:06 myobu postfix/error[5322]: 5AD6515653F<EMAIL_ADDRESS>relay=none, delay=0.08, delays=0.05/0.01/0/0.01, dsn=4.4.1, status=deferred (delivery temporarily suspended: connect to alt2.gmail-smtp-in.l.google.com[<IP_ADDRESS>]:25: Connection timed o
[02:12] <RingtailedFox> ut)
[02:12] <dr_Willis> rockyrock,  you never asked that..youasked about messages in the console.
[02:12] <thanhtuan> hi
[02:12] <dr_Willis> rockyrock,  most freezes i see are due to video card drivers.. or flash acting VERY badly
[02:12] <rockyrock> dr_Willis:  no my aim to reach that, please read my previous messages
[02:13] <dr_Willis> Riyonuk,  looke like gnome tweaked a little.. and conky for the desktop info.
[02:13] <rockyrock> dr_Willis: I have nvidia 8500GT 512DDR2 and i use glx-new
[02:13] <Riyonuk> I found it, thanks :D
[02:13] <Riyonuk> Now what are these buttons? XD
[02:13] <Riyonuk> http://kontrol.me/temp/yes_i_can_code_in_binary.jpg
[02:13] <Riyonuk> in the top right, I only have 3 ._.
[02:13] <thanhtuan> how old are you
[02:13] <rockyrock> dr_Willis: And yes this driver makes some troubles for me when i activate compiz
[02:14] <dasdajs> Starnestommy now i've opened for port 113, shall I restart sbnc/psybnc or?
[02:14] <Riyonuk> thanhtuan, me?
[02:14] <Starnestommy> dasdajs: just make sure that oidentd is running
[02:14] <dr_Willis> Riyonuk,  could be any of a dozen themes for compiz/emerald/gnome.. the # of buttons is customizeable on some themes.
[02:14] <dasdajs> Starnestommy okay, it is
[02:14] <Riyonuk> What do the button's even do?
[02:14] <Starnestommy> dasdajs: you'll need to restart your bouncer for irc servers to see your ident reply
[02:15] <dasdajs> Starnestommy okay thanks
[02:15] <dr_Willis> Riyonuk,  most likely 'roll up' 'always on top'  and the normal features
[02:15] <rockyrock> dr_Willis: Have you ever faced a freeze?
[02:15] <Riyonuk> :O
[02:15] <alkaliv2> If I'm using an AGP nvidia card, do I need frame buffer support in my kernel?  I have frame buffer off in my xorg.conf
[02:15] <Riyonuk> I've never even heard of those
[02:15] <dr_Willis> rockyrock,  not really. This 8800gtsxxx machine has very few issues in Linux... just dont ask about Vista
[02:16] <dr_Willis> Riyonuk,  looks a lot like the 'plastik' theme im am using now :) differnt colors
[02:16] <Mys> i need some help with Realtek audio card i have tried everything possible to get sound but nothing works any ideas?
[02:16] <rockyrock> dr_Willis: what do you recommend?
[02:16] <IndyGunFreak> Mys: how does lspci identify the card?
[02:17] <dr_Willis> rockyrock,  not a clue.. Not sure on your details or exact problem. some others in the channel may have advice. I tend to not use compiz, and i use the simpiler window managers..  i also rarely use flash. so i rarely have any issues.
[02:17] <Mys> lspci?
[02:18] <newbe1> .
[02:18] <IndyGunFreak> Mys: well, you've clearly not tried everything
[02:18] <Mys> 00:02.7 Multimedia audio controller: Silicon Integrated Systems [SiS] AC'97 Sound Controller (rev a0)
[02:18] <IndyGunFreak> Mys: open a terminal and type "lspci" no quotes, hit enter, and see exactly how it identifies your sound device
[02:18] <Mys> thats what it said
[02:19] <Mys> i have AMD X64
[02:19] <rockyrock> is there anyway to have a report file or something for why the system got frozen?
[02:20] <Mys> it was workin before i had did the sys-upgrade
[02:20] <Mys> IndyGunFreak: do you have any clue?
[02:20] <IndyGunFreak> Mys: no, was just doing some googling, doesn't look like your'e alone
[02:20] <Mys> :|
[02:21] <Mys> i dont get it, it was working but i updated to 8.04
[02:21] <dasdajs> Starnestommy still won't work :S
[02:22] <dr_Willis> rockyrock,  if you could troubleshoot and point to where/what froze it..  but just reporting 'it froze' isent really that helpfull..
[02:22] <ozo> 01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: Silicon Integrated Systems [SiS] 661/741/760 PCI/AGP or 662/761Gx PCIE VGA Display Adapter
[02:22] <ozo>    |glxinfo |grep render
[02:22] <ozo> direct rendering: No (If you want to find out why, try setting LIBGL_DEBUG=verbose)
[02:22] <ozo> OpenGL renderer string: Mesa GLX Indirect
[02:22] <ozo>
[02:22] <FloodBot1> ozo: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[02:22] <ozo> sorry
[02:22] <shocm> Mys: Yeah Ubuntu changed how they handle audio
[02:22] <dr_Willis> rockyrock,  could be a bug with the nvidia drivers. which are not under out controll. or could be somthing else entirely.
[02:22] <salaz> helo, is there any media centre than elisa?
[02:23] <dasdajs> Starnestommy any ideas? :S
[02:23] <shocm> Mys: let me see if I can find the links I was using to troubleshot my audio issue.
[02:23] <dr_Willis> salaz,  i have used MythTV befor - but its often overkill.
[02:23] <shocm> Same this you were seeing, it working at 7.10 and then didn't after update
[02:24] <salaz> dr_Willis: is it the same function as elisa?
[02:24] <DavidCraft> vsftpd is no longer apearing in my init.d folder, how do I get it back?
[02:24] <dr_Willis> salaz,  not a clue.. never seen/heard of elisa befor.. MythTV is a all-in-one record/playback/stream/ TV-tivo type thing
[02:25] <dr_Willis> !info elisa
[02:25] <DavidCraft> any ideas any one?
[02:25] <shocm> Ubuntu use to default to ALSA system, now it uses something else
[02:25] <salaz> dr_Willis: oh..elisa is like microsoft windows media centre..but much better..u should try
[02:25] <Denise> lost in translation
[02:25] <dr_Willis> shocm,  its actually using alsa.. with pulse audio on top
[02:26] <Mys> shocm: i installed every mixer and none worked
[02:26] <dr_Willis> salaz,  i tend to use 'geexbox' as a mini-linux-media-center thing on the laptop :)
[02:26] <salaz> dr_Willis: so how can i install geexbox or mythtv?
[02:26] <m1dn1ght> pulseaudio.....*shudder*
[02:26] <dr_Willis> salaz,  mythtv is documented and is its own package.. geexbox is a mini linux disrto. not a program.
[02:27] <shocm> Mys: yeah I tried the same thing with no luck except that it seeing that it has audio now. Before it would just say it didn't detect any sound card
[02:27] <dr_Willis> !mythtv | salaz
[02:27] <odditie> Can someone point me in the direction to fix my screen resolution? Just installed Ubuntu, have some previous experience, but it has been a long time
[02:27] <shocm> Right Pulseaudio..l
[02:27] <dr_Willis> salaz,  mythtv may be vast overkill for your needs
[02:27] <DavidCraft> nvm got it
[02:27] <shocm> dr_Willis: Any idea why they made that change?
[02:27] <ScheissDrogen>  odditie: /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[02:27] <salaz> dr_Willis: ok tq
[02:27] <odditie> it has absolutely nothing in it
[02:28] <ScheissDrogen>  odditie: open a terminal...
[02:28] <Denise> I had that problem again
[02:28] <Denise> with konversation
[02:28] <Starnestommy> dasdajs: in what way is it not working?
[02:28] <dash9> odditie: try system - preferences - screen resolution
[02:28] <salaz> dr_Willis: how many tv channels can i get from mythtv?
[02:28] <dasdajs> Starnestommy I think the port is not opened, 2secs
[02:28] <Denise> opening querries by itself
[02:28] <dr_Willis> shocm,  check the !pulse factoid and the pulseaudio docs.. its progress
[02:28] <dr_Willis> salaz,  depends on your tuner.
[02:29] <odditie> dash9: only goes to 1024 x X, that is too small for my liking
[02:29] <Denise> mythtv
[02:29] <odditie> ScheissDrogen: opened
[02:29] <ScheissDrogen>  odditie: sudo cp /etc/X11/xorg.conf    /etc/X11/xorg.confsave
[02:29] <salaz> dr_Willis:i'm gonna need a tuner? tv card or external tv u say?
[02:29] <Denise> close the window
[02:29] <dasdajs> how can I test if the port is open?
[02:29] <Denise> or beter clean the pidgin
[02:30] <Denise> ?
[02:30] <dr_Willis> salaz,  go check its homepage/docs.. you obiously need a tuner to tune in shows...   you could record video in if you have some way to do that.. it does more then just record tv.
[02:30] <ScheissDrogen>  odditie: if probs occur, can copy it back (using live or cli)
[02:30] <salaz> dr_Willis: ok tq
[02:30] <ScheissDrogen>  odditie: sudo apt-get install displayconfig-gtk

[02:41]  * Debolaz gets ready to install vmware on his new ubuntu installation.
[02:41] <Debolaz> It feels a bit dirty.
[02:41] <amal029> unrar x *.rar
[02:41] <ScheissDrogen> Nutzebahn: read alrweady, so /sda5&6, the vfats ?
[02:41] <m1dn1ght> Anjo_da_Folia - have you installed the unrar package?
[02:41] <Gnea> !unrar > Anjo_da_Folia
[02:41] <Nutzebahn> blkid said that sda6 was w-pt-3, which is what I want.
[02:41] <Nutzebahn> Yes.
[02:42] <ScheissDrogen> Nutzebahn: (cli) sudo gedit /etc/fstab
[02:43] <Nutzebahn> Yes, I am there now, ScheissDrogen.
[02:43] <dasdajs> do identd run on udp?
[02:43] <ScheissDrogen> Nutzebahn: in the line of sda6  ,add before defaults  : user,rw,defaults.....
[02:44] <timothy007> dasdajs:  I believe so...
[02:44] <dasdajs> okay
[02:44] <mbrigdan> anyone here played FlatSpace and know of a game like it for ubuntu?
[02:44] <timothy007> dasdajs: who you hackin' btw  :-)
[02:44] <dr_Willis> mbrigdan,  describe the game perhaps we know of one
[02:45] <dasdajs> timothy007 hehe none :) just trying to get oidentd working on my box
[02:45] <timothy007> dasdajs: just playin with ya...
[02:45] <dasdajs> hehe I know :D
[02:45] <Nutzebahn> ScheissDrogen: I did, that, should I do that to sda5 too?
[02:45] <ScheissDrogen> Nutzebahn: do umask and gid fit a special purpose ? otherwise delete it
[02:45] <Nutzebahn> I don't know.
[02:45] <Nutzebahn> Ok.
[02:45] <Nutzebahn> What is wrong with umask and gid?
[02:46] <mbrigdan> dr_Willis: Almost directly from the company site: "Its space trading game, with strong influences from 'rogue' games like NetHack"
[02:46] <ScheissDrogen> Nutzebahn: sda 5 neither has a device nor an umask given, do you have a second vfat parti ?
[02:46] <Nutzebahn> Yes.
[02:46] <Nutzebahn> I have two.
[02:47] <timothy007> mbrigdan:  point me in the right direction if you find it.... lincity is getting old...
[02:47] <ScheissDrogen> Nutzebahn: if unsure, open a second cli : sudo fdisk-l , paste that output
[02:47] <npope-laptop> ubottu: rate ubuntu
[02:47] <npope-laptop> grr
[02:47] <mbrigdan> dr_Willis: You basically fly around in a semi hostile/ semi friendly universe, making a living a nice way (trading) or by an "evil" way (ie: piracy)
[02:47] <ScheissDrogen>  npope-laptop:ubott.. is a bot
[02:48] <npope-laptop> ScheissDrogen: i know
[02:48] <timothy007> ubottu: crap
[02:48] <timothy007> lol...
[02:48] <Nutzebahn> ScheissDrogen: http://pastebin.com/d38bc44ed
[02:48] <timothy007> sorry folks.
[02:48] <dr_Willis> mbrigdan,  sounds like the old 'elite' game for the C64 :)  Theres a remake or 2 of elite out also.
[02:48] <Flannel> mbrigdan: try vegastrike
[02:48] <npope-laptop> thats why i asked him to rate.... alot of bots will keep track of rating of "names" like if i did ScheissDrogen++ your rank would be "+1" if someone else did it you would be "+2" etc..
[02:49] <strategy> I'm moving over from fedora (downloading the ISO right now :D), and i'd like to keep my data. I Hear i just go to custom partitioning and choose to keep the /home partition. Is there anything else i should know?
[02:49] <Gnea> !poll | npope-laptop
[02:49] <Flannel> strategy: That's it.  Just keep your home partition and you'll keep your data
[02:49] <strategy> Flannel, great, thanks. Format everything else, right?
[02:49] <timothy007> strategy: BACK IT ALL UP!
[02:50] <Flannel> strategy: Yep.
[02:50] <aro> strategy, just double check that it's not set to "format"
[02:50] <echostorm> hi guys. I have a huge problem with my package manager., getting an error code when i do anything and cant use synaptic or apt without errors like : dpkg: parse error, in file `/var/lib/dpkg/status' near line 16479 package `gnome-session':
[02:50] <echostorm>  `Recommends' field, invalid package name `
[02:50] <echostorm>  no matter what i try
[02:50] <mbrigdan> dr_Willis: Thats what they were aiming for, with a bit more "you just took a wrong step and have now died forever with no save to go back to"
[02:50] <aro> strategy, the /home partition that is
[02:50] <npope-laptop> strategy: keep in mind your applications from fedora wont work on ubuntu (ubuntu=deb fedora=rpm)
[02:50] <ScheissDrogen> Nutzebahn: put missing uid for sda5:  UUID=24DC-B369  similar to sda6
[02:50] <Gnea> echostorm: what, exactly, have you tried?
[02:50] <strategy> ok thanks aro. timothy007, yeah i will.. got like 2G of data though, which is why i'm trying this
[02:50] <strategy> npope-laptop, yeah, but ordinary linux .bin's will work fine right?
[02:51] <npope-laptop> strategy: theoretically...
[02:51] <strategy> ;p
[02:51] <dr_Willis> ive never seen an 'ordinary linux .bin' and them working fine in ANY CASE is questionable. :)
[02:51] <ScheissDrogen> Nutzebahn: add user,rw  , delete gid&umask
[02:51] <strategy> :D
[02:51] <echostorm>  have tried combinations of apt-get update , clear, fixing dependancies in synaptic
[02:51] <dr_Willis> depends on the exact program a great deal
[02:51] <strategy> yeah
[02:51] <timothy007> strategy:  as long  as you have the libs
[02:51] <strategy> ok thanks timothy007
[02:51] <strategy> Such great support..
[02:51] <ScheissDrogen> Nutzebahn: if you want, paste new fstab again
[02:51] <Gnea> echostorm: what about apt-get -f install?
[02:52] <echostorm> sec ill try that, forgot i could force
[02:52] <Nutzebahn> I'm a little confused, could you modify the fstab for me and send it? (please)
[02:52] <ScheissDrogen> Nutzebahn: np, mom
[02:52] <dasdajs> grrr.. I just can't open for port 113 in iptables grrr.. :S
[02:52] <echostorm> I get: dpkg: parse error, in file `/var/lib/dpkg/status' near line 16479 package `gnome-session':
[02:52] <echostorm>  `Recommends' field, invalid package name `
[02:52] <echostorm> E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (2)
[02:52] <dres> echostorm: you'll have to edit that file and fix the line. afaik that's the only way to repair damage to that file.
[02:52] <echostorm> ok will try that then
[02:52] <dres> echostorm: there might be a backup of it in /var/backups
[02:53] <Gnea> echostorm: the package file itself could be corrupted - might need to remove it and re-download it
[02:53] <timothy007> dres: will sudo updatedb work for that?
[02:54] <dres> timothy007: no that's just a db of installed files.  status is a "db" of installed/rc-only packages.
[02:54] <echostorm> ahh, seeing as its a system type package, can you make any suggestions on how to do this? I have some backups but they all look from while i was already trying to repair
[02:54] <timothy007> dres: ic... thanks
[02:55] <dasdajs> i've opened for everything in iptables now, shouldn't I be able to scan port 113 now? :S
[02:55] <timothy007> dasdajs: yes....
[02:55] <npope-laptop> dasdajs: try disabling iptables to see if that is your problem or not...
[02:55] <dasdajs> timothy007 I can't :S
[02:55] <ScheissDrogen> Nutzebahn: http://pastebin.com/m1d95e95e
[02:55] <dasdajs> npope-laptop how? :)
[02:55] <npope-laptop> dasdajs: /etc/init.d/iptables stop
[02:56] <dres> echostorm: copy the current file to status.save (or something) then copy one by one the backup files to status til you get a good one.
[02:56] <ScheissDrogen> Nutzebahn: change thes two lines, save n close fstab...
[02:56] <dasdajs> npope-laptop sudo: /etc/init.d/iptables: command not found hmmm
[02:56] <Lollipopz> guys I need to get rid of a subversion checkout folder :(
[02:56] <dres> echostorm: then be concerned about what happened to that file.  likely something is wrong with the disk it's on.  that's the only time I've seen that file get corrupted.
[02:56] <dstrbdfrk> hey is anyone in here farmillar with ares p2p??
[02:56] <Lollipopz> I get Permission Denied all the time
[02:56] <npope-laptop> dasdajs: one second....
[02:56] <danbhfive> Lollipopz: rm?
[02:56] <Debolaz> Heh, it seemed compiz sapped all my video memory. Got 256 MB on the card, and there wasn't even enough left to play a fullscreen video.
[02:56] <Lollipopz> danbhfive permission denied :( in sudo :S
[02:56] <ScheissDrogen> Lollipopz: location ?
[02:57] <danbhfive> Lollipopz: in sudo?  wow
[02:57] <echostorm> it happened during an attempt to move emerald... it told me that i couldnt remove it, i forget the error... and its been like this ever since
[02:57] <Nutzebahn> Alright.
[02:57] <Nutzebahn> restarting
[02:57] <Lollipopz> here /home/lollipopz/www/django-trunk
[02:57] <woli> hi.. i have the mount/unmount iso image nautilus scripts, but they won't mount... why is that?
[02:57] <ScheissDrogen> Nutzebahn: wait...
[02:57] <dres> echostorm: likely has nothing to do with what you were doing at the time.
[02:57] <woli> i suppose they do not have sudo permission, but how can i do that?
[02:57] <pianoboy3333> Does anybody know of a program for ubuntu that will allow me to video chat over the AIM protocol?
[02:58] <eko1> i'm to do a command "sudo patch -p1 < 2.6.24.patch" and it's giving me permission denied even with sudo, why?
[02:58] <echostorm> most likely not... is there a disk checking utility for linux?
[02:58] <dstrbdfrk> what kind of filesharing program do you guys use ??
[02:58] <eko1> trying*
[02:58] <timothy007> pianoboy3333: kopete
[02:58] <dres> eko1: "chmod -R +w ."  Probably don't have write set
[02:59] <pianoboy3333> timothy007: ok, I'll check it out
[02:59] <timothy007> dstrbdfrk: azureus
[02:59] <ScheissDrogen>  echostorm: e2fsck
[02:59] <echostorm> thanks :)
[02:59] <ScheissDrogen>  echostorm: e2fsck, carefull...
[02:59] <dres> eko1: do that in the dir you are trying to patch obviously.
[02:59] <Debolaz> timothy007: Kopete only supports video for MSN and Yahoo afaik?
[02:59] <McAfee17> sup hizoes?
[02:59] <ScheissDrogen>  echostorm: more advice ?
[02:59] <dstrbdfrk> is it pretty easy to use timothy007??
[02:59] <echostorm> well, the carefull thing sounds scary, so more advice would be usefull yes :))
[03:00] <timothy007> Debolaz: your most likely correct, I don't use it for that
[03:00] <Nutt718> hello, Is there ever a need to defrag a HD using UBUNTU? If so, how?
[03:00] <dres> echostorm: best think to do is "touch /forcefsck" ande reboot
[03:00] <dstrbdfrk> i used to use aries but i switched to  ubuntu and it dont offer it
[03:00] <McAfee17> hello, i iz bored, whats up?
[03:00] <DramaLlama> how do I figure out why my OS is reporting the wrong partition size after I ran gparted?
[03:00] <timothy007> dstrbdfrk: azureus is quite easy to use...
[03:00] <xim__> is there a way to stop all servers (apache, mysql, php) on my ubuntu desktop at once or do I have to figure out the commands for each one
[03:00] <timothy007> dstrbdfrk: and very powerful
[03:01] <echostorm> if you dont like azureus, may i sufggest deluge? its in the software channel
[03:01] <dasdajs> npope-laptop can u find something good? :)
[03:01] <npope-laptop> dasdajs: sudo iptables -F
[03:01] <usser> Nutt718, theres no need for defrag, i believe its done automatically/incrementaly with every file operation
[03:01] <dres> DramaLlama: where is the partition size being reported?
[03:01] <eko1> dres: returned 'operation not permitted'
[03:01] <npope-laptop> dasdajs: that was good timing
[03:01] <ScheissDrogen>  echostorm: don't run this cmd on a mounted filesystem, but use a live cd, unmount disk first, then sudo e2fsck (see also man fsck), and don't run it if no errors of hd are occured
[03:01] <dasdajs> hehe
[03:01] <dasdajs> npope-laptop i've done that
[03:01] <Nutt718> usser, thanks\
[03:01] <echostorm> ok i will do that :) thank you very much for the advice there
[03:01] <dres> eko1: using sudo?  is this on an nfs mounted filesystem?
[03:01] <npope-laptop> dasdajs: once doing that there is no rules in iptables...
[03:01] <dasdajs> npope-laptop okay
[03:02] <dasdajs> npope-laptop but port 113 is still refused
[03:02] <npope-laptop> dasdajs: are you trying to scan your ports from a remote computer?  if so check that your router is forwarding the correct port to your comp
[03:02] <ScheissDrogen>  echostorm:other to win a (slighty) chance to get more probs, check your fsatb for uuids
[03:02] <dasdajs> npope-laptop right now checking from the server it self
[03:02] <Predom[Working]> Hey, can anyone tell me the latest ping version for Ubuntu ?
[03:02] <echostorm> ok noted
[03:02] <npope-laptop> can you telnet too it ?
[03:03] <dasdajs> to port 113?
[03:03] <zcat[1]> ping utility, iputils-sss20071127
[03:03] <mfu> is there an instant messenger client for ubuntu that is compatible with iChat video chat?
[03:03] <Predom[Working]> zcat[1]: Is there a iputils-sss20071127-1 ?
[03:03] <dasdajs> npope-laptop telnet: Unable to connect to remote host: Connection refused
[03:03] <zcat[1]> I dunno..
[03:03] <ScheissDrogen>  Predom[Working]: ping ?
[03:03] <mrtech2122> can someone help me format my drive
[03:03] <pierrelux> mrtech2122: use gparted
[03:03] <ScheissDrogen> mrtech2122: yup
[03:04] <zcat[1]> never seen anybody worry before that they don't have the most up to date ping!!
[03:04] <mrtech2122> ?
[03:04] <npope-laptop> dasdajs: try adding this to iptables "iptables -A INPUT -i eth2 -p tcp --dport 113 -j ACCEPT"
[03:04] <npope-laptop> dasdajs: without the quotes
[03:04] <dekushrub> i was playing a dvd in totem and all of a sudden the colors inverted, does anyone know the solution?
[03:04] <cpierce> lol my ping isn't up to date i won't be able to ping efficiently
[03:04] <ScheissDrogen> mrtech2122: only one drive in pc ?
[03:04] <Predom[Working]> zcat[1]: First tiem for everything :P Do you know if that versio is around?
[03:04] <mrtech2122> is that a package
[03:04] <eko1> dres: redid it with sudo, seemed to work but then i was still denied permission for the first command
[03:04] <mrtech2122> 2
[03:04] <Predom[Working]> ScheissDrogen: Yeah. ping
[03:04] <dasdajs> npope-laptop done that and change eth2 to eth0
[03:04] <zcat[1]> dekushrub: play them in vlc? I find that better cos it does dvd menus and stuff..
[03:05] <timothy007> dekushrub: use vlc media player
[03:05] <pierrelux> mrtech2122: gparted is nice program with a GUI
[03:05] <eko1> dres: i'm on a fresh install from windows vista so maybe my hdd is ntfs still...
[03:05] <cpierce> Predom[Working]: i just installed latest version nad updated i'm booting my laptop right now
[03:05] <npope-laptop> dasdajs: did it work?
[03:05] <ScheissDrogen>  Predom[Working]: the ping command is in a standard installation
[03:05] <zcat[1]> Predom[Working]: no idea. but I keep my lappy pretty up to date. hang on
[03:05] <unop> cpierce, what version of iputils-ping do you have on your system?
[03:05] <dekushrub> timothy007, it was working fine in totem and the colors just changed, i'd rather fix the problem than install more software
[03:05] <dasdajs> npope-laptop "localhost [<IP_ADDRESS>] 113 (auth) : Connection refused" and "telnet: Unable to connect to remote host: Connection refused"
[03:05] <mrtech2122> ok ill try
[03:05] <Predom[Working]> ScheissDrogen: I know :)
[03:05] <Predom[Working]> zcat[1]: Thanks
[03:05] <pierrelux> mrtech2122: otherwise, you can use mkfs.ext3 /dev/sda1 lets say to format this partition
[03:05] <cpierce> unop: i'm checking
[03:05] <Predom[Working]> cpierce: Thanks :)
[03:05] <dasdajs> npope-laptop can't it be the host who have closed for connections on port 113?
[03:05] <ScheissDrogen> mrtech2122: only one drive in pc ?
[03:05] <npope-laptop> dasdajs: and no other firewalls are running (router, server etc..)?
[03:06] <dasdajs> npope-laptop I don't know, I think so, port 6667 is also blocked
[03:06] <pygmymath> ahoy guys
[03:06] <zcat[1]> nope, no updates that I can see
[03:06] <npope-laptop> dasdajs: how can you irc then?
[03:06] <dres> eko1: do "cat /proc/mounts" and look for the filesystem you are doing this on.  make sure it's "rw"  though the chmod shouldn't have worked if it weren't.
[03:06] <timothy007> dekushrub: what version ubuntu and did you check the forums?
[03:06] <dasdajs> irc.freenode.net:7000 :)
[03:06] <npope-laptop> aa
[03:07] <echostorm> ok found the problem. check this out: line 16479 Recommends: dbus, çnome-panel
[03:07] <echostorm> see the weird g ?
[03:07] <cpierce> i only got sss20071127
[03:07] <cpierce> no -1
[03:07] <Predom[Working]> zcat[1]: Thanks :)
[03:07] <Predom[Working]> zcat[1]: You've been most accommodating
[03:07] <timothy007> dekushrub: I believe I seen a post about that issue with 8.04 in the forum.]
[03:07] <McAfee17> BLARG>!!!!
[03:07] <pygmymath> anyone here got a recommendation for minimum proc speed to run gnome comfortably?
[03:07] <dudu> boa noite a todos
[03:07] <mrtech2122> its 2
[03:07] <pygmymath> i'm guessing ~  800 mhz?
[03:07] <McAfee17> you should delete your kernel, that'll fix it
[03:07] <Flannel> !requirements | pygmymath
[03:07] <npope-laptop> pygmymath: 500mhz should be comfortable
[03:07] <zcat[1]> I'm kinda confused thugh, ping has been basically the same for the last 20 or 30 years.. why the concern?
[03:08] <ScheissDrogen> mrtech2122: min 500, better 800 MHZ
[03:08] <pygmymath> Flannel: good point flan, cheers
[03:08] <pygmymath> npope-laptop: had a bad experience with a 400mhz P3, but a good experience with an eee running at 400 :/ so was a bit confused
[03:08] <eko1> dres: yeah it says rw
[03:08] <mrtech2122> im sorry i dont understand
[03:08] <Predom[Working]> zcat[1]: Not sure if you are interested...
[03:08] <Predom[Working]> zcat[1]: http://packages.ubuntu.com/hardy/net/iputils-ping
[03:08] <dudu> Gente por favor como fasso para adicionar o corretor ortografico no open office pois o mesmo já esta em portugues mais o corretor nao funciona
[03:08] <zcat[1]> eeepc runs at ~600 doesn't it?
[03:08] <npope-laptop> dasdajs: can you ping it from another comp
[03:09] <Predom[Working]> zcat[1]: That seems to say 20071127-1
[03:09] <dres> eko1: and it's ext3?
[03:09] <dasdajs> npope-laptop the server on port 113? or
[03:09] <npope-laptop> the server... in general not port 113
[03:09] <pygmymath> zcat[1]: depends if you have the overclock. 400, 900 with overclock afaik
[03:09] <cpierce> Predom[Working]: what version of ubuntu you got?
[03:09] <ScheissDrogen> mrtech2122: sry, nick missed
[03:09] <dasdajs> npope-laptop ping bnc.depro.dk <- my host, doesn't work :)
[03:09] <pygmymath> zcat[1]: as far as i remember anyway heh, eeepc screen = dead :<
[03:09] <eko1> dres: yeah ext3
[03:09] <zcat[1]> ping6 utility, iputils-sss20071127 ;-P

[03:09] <Nutzebahn> SheissDrogen?
[03:09] <mrtech2122> o ok its koo
[03:10] <npope-laptop> dasdajs: is that a public server
[03:10] <Predom[Working]> cpierce: I dont know :)
[03:10] <ScheissDrogen> mrtech2122: gparted ?
[03:10] <zcat[1]> so if "-1" added the ping6 utility then what I have must be "-1"
[03:10] <dres> eko1: can you pastebin or msg me the exact text of what happens?
[03:10] <dasdajs> npope-laptop it hosted in a hosting center, so well public u can say :)
[03:10] <Predom[Working]> cpierce: I have a ubuntu VM, and its ping looks newer than my gentoo box.. which is weird
[03:10] <cpierce> Predom[Working]: but you don't know what version you have?
[03:10] <mrtech2122> im just about to install it
[03:10] <pygmymath> Predom[Working]: how can a ping look newer :/
[03:10] <eko1> dres: sure, for which command?
[03:11] <Predom[Working]> cpierce: My Ubuntu is just a VM for testing, I dont know what ersion
[03:11] <dr_Willis> pygmymath,  its shinier? has that new-ping smell?
[03:11] <dres> eko1: the patch.  you said the chmod worked correct?
[03:11] <Predom[Working]> pygmymath: Yeah, new ping smell..
[03:11] <pygmymath> dr_Willis: lost my nose to some bad soldering and trying to repair a broken slate screen :<
[03:11] <zcat[1]> I kinda recall ping back on Slackware with a 0.97 krnel looking pretty much exactly the same...
[03:11] <pygmymath> Predom[Working]: must smell like freedom :<
[03:11] <eko1> dres: yeah one sec
[03:11] <RingtailedFox> back
[03:12] <cpierce> Predom[Working]: cat /etc/issue
[03:12] <woli> how do i change the windows sharing workgroup?
[03:12] <dr_Willis> woli,  thats in the samba configs smb.conf I belive
[03:13] <zcat[1]> woli: edit /etc/samba/smb.conf (I think it's that)
[03:13] <woli> ok
[03:13] <eko1> dres: http://paste.ubuntu.com/42288/
[03:13] <dr_Willis> woli,  but i was thinking the gnome file manager could brose the whole network/all names
[03:13] <pygmymath> right well, cheers guys, i'm off to go puzzle out my custom laptop... happy fixing :D
[03:13] <zcat[1]> woli: there's also samba config gui's if you prefer doing it that way..
[03:13] <cpierce> woli: system->administrator->network settings
[03:13] <ScheissDrogen> mrtech2122: only one drive in pc ?
[03:14] <Denise> vigil
[03:14] <Denise> 24/7
[03:14] <dres> eko1: do "ls -l 2.6.24.patch"  is it readable?
[03:14] <mrtech2122> i have 2 drices
[03:14] <woli> cpierce, there is no such item under my system->administration menu
[03:14] <Predom[Working]> I might ping off now....
[03:14] <zcat[1]> cpierce: for the smb domain name? where?
[03:14] <Predom[Working]> Thanks all
[03:14] <cpierce> woli:  just network
[03:14] <mrtech2122> i have 2 drives
[03:14] <ScheissDrogen> !who | mrtech2122:
[03:15] <cpierce> zcat[1]: under general
[03:15] <ScheissDrogen> mrtech2122: ok, so one has ubu, the other is to be formatted ?
[03:15] <mrtech2122> ok
[03:15] <xim> how can i find out what kind of ftp server is running on my ubuntu box?
[03:15] <dres> eko1: lol.  that file is readable by root I bet, but not the user you are before sudoing.  try "sudo chmod 644 2.6.24.patch" and try again.
[03:15] <Flannel> xim: Did you install one?
[03:16] <xim> probably
[03:16] <mrtech2122> scheiss:yeah
[03:16] <Devourer> What's the command to list the all the users on a system?
[03:16] <xim> im trying to install XAMPP and its saying theres already an ftp server running
[03:16] <xim> might have installed it before i got SCP to work
[03:16] <cpierce> xim:  ftpd --version
[03:16] <cpierce> maybe
[03:16] <Flannel> xim: Just install a proper LAMP stcak
[03:17] <zcat[1]> you sure? Well "System > Administration > Network" then.. and I have no domain name there, and smb is set to use WORKGROUP atm. so I don't think that's it?
[03:17] <ScheissDrogen> mrtech2122: sudo apt-get install gparted && sudo gparted
[03:17] <xim> cpierce: not that one, thx tho
[03:17] <mrtech2122> scheiss :ok
[03:17] <xim> Flannel: stcak? stack? what do you mean?
[03:17] <dudu> por favor se alguem puder me ajudar, pois me xchat estava configurado para ir direto no ubuntu br e nao sei como fazer para acesssar o mesmo
[03:17] <eko1> dres: yup that worked ^^
[03:17] <wols_> xim: we don't support xampp. not to mention xampp is unecessary and utterly pointless
[03:17] <zcat[1]> OK, just changes it to "MSHOME" and it hasn't changed the samba config at all
[03:18] <eko1> dres: thanks man
[03:18] <woli> i cannot select MP3 as the format to rip CDs in...
[03:18] <Flannel> xim: stack.  INstead of installing XAMPP, just install actual LAMP
[03:18] <unop> !pt | dudu
[03:18] <wols_> !lamp > xim
[03:18] <dres> eko1: np.  I've done the same thing before.
[03:18] <zcat[1]> but now I have "domain MSHOME" in my /etc/resolv.conf
[03:18] <pierrelux> xim: ps ax | grep ftp will give you something I guess... proftpd for example
[03:18] <ScheissDrogen> mrtech2122: ( ScheissDrogen) can you differ the two drives ?
[03:18] <xim> im not asking you to troubleshoot XAMPP, all I'm asking is how i can find what program is serving ftp for me right now
[03:19] <xim> k thx
[03:19] <dr_Willis> woli,  theres proberly some restricted package syou need to install to get full mp3 support
[03:19] <wols_> xim: man netstat and you will find it
[03:19] <mrtech2122> scheiss: what do u mean?
[03:19] <eko1> dres: so it was something with my user rights?
[03:19] <woli> dr_Willis, how?
[03:19] <woli> i'm very new to ubuntu
[03:19] <zcat[1]> !smb
[03:19] <ScheissDrogen> mrtech2122: ( ScheissDrogen is my nick) can you differ the two drives ?  e.g. sda  and sdb ?
[03:20] <dr_Willis> woli,  would look at the bots !mp3 factoid. You may need to install the 'ubuntu-restricted-extras' package for one..
[03:20] <dres> eko1: yea.  root (who you became after the sudo) could read the file, but the "< 2.6.24.patch" part is done as your user not root.
[03:20] <dr_Willis> !mp3 | woli
[03:20] <unop> pierrelux, it also might not give you anything sensible.   pgrep -l ftp
[03:20] <bofh80> !nfs
[03:20] <eko1> dres: oh gotcha
[03:20] <xim> thx guys it was proftp
[03:21] <ScheissDrogen> mrtech2122:on the drive to format, delete all partitions first
[03:22] <ScheissDrogen> mrtech2122:then put a new one on it , then use apply tab
[03:22] <mrtech2122> scheissdrogen: my fault i also have 1 external drive but yes i can differ them the one im trying to format is (sdb)
[03:22] <woli> thanks dr_Willis, i am now installing the extras... i'll let you know if it works
[03:22] <matthew_> hi, so i want to play DVDs on my new laptop, but both VLC player, and Totem won't recognize my DVDs. Is there a package I have to download to watch them?
[03:23] <woli> for the log:  sudo apt-get install ubuntu-restricted-extras

[03:24] <tag> stick to panel, rather
[03:24] <fluid> anybody know how to change the playback device in pulseaudio? i have soundcard/speakers, and a usb headset. (both working)
[03:25] <ScheissDrogen> mrtech2122:done with gparted ?
[03:28] <matthew_> ok, so when i use the "activate DVD decrytpion" code in terminal, it says, "command not found"
[03:28] <ramrebol> tengo los sonido de firefox (gmail, youtube) demasiado altos..  como puedo bajar solo eso?
[03:28] <xkpe> hello
[03:28] <Mildew> HAI
[03:29] <woli> ramrebol, em, baja el volumen general...
[03:29] <dr_Willis> matthew_,  i belive that guide gives several ways to install the stuff.. I normally install the packages from medibuntu repository - and yes. I do recall the path being incorrect to one of the commands tehy give
[03:29] <xkpe> is there any way to redirect the keyboard input on a window to multiple windows?
[03:29] <matthew_> thx, dr
[03:29] <ryaxnb> IT appears the only version of ksmserver on the system is ksmserver 3.5.9. I want startkde version 4.1. Is there another package to install w/ synaptic. Or what?
[03:29] <ScheissDrogen> matthew_:sudo apt-get install vlc
[03:30] <matthew_> i did install VLC
[03:30] <dr_Willis> matthew_,  go to the !medibuntu factoid url. and enable medibuntu repository and install the  "libdvdcss2" package.. and there may beotehrs there you want. w32codecs will be one
[03:30] <ScheissDrogen> matthew_:bring own codec, so can watch dvd with that
[03:30] <ScheissDrogen> matthew_:brings own codec, so can watch dvd with that
[03:30] <fox_> hola
[03:30] <dr_Willis> matthew_,  vlc is one of the few players that may not need all the extra codecs.
[03:30] <matthew_> !medibuntu
[03:30] <ryaxnb> i want startkde 4.1 cause i want to start kde 4.1 from the CLI
[03:30] <phayz> i've done a minimal ubuntu install, then added xfce4.  "splashy"'s screen appears on boot-up but not on shutdown.  any ideas?  shutdown itself works fine, i just don't get the splashy screen
[03:31] <ryaxnb> any ideas? i'd really like to get startkde 4.1
[03:32] <kitche> ryanakca: startkde4 try that
[03:33] <ScheissDrogen> mrtech2122:you're fine ?
[03:33] <MXIIA> how can I change my password on server edition
[03:33] <unop> ryaxnb, what does this give you?  dpkg -S $(which startkde)
[03:33] <unop> MXIIA, passwd
[03:33] <woli> dr_Willis, it still won't get selected (the MP3 option...)
[03:33] <MXIIA> k
[03:33] <dr_Willis> woli,  not sure what ya need then. It depends on the program you are usign specifically.
[03:33] <ryaxnb> lemme look unop
[03:34] <dr_Willis> woli,  check the forums will proberly get a quick answer
[03:34] <woli> dr_Willis, sound juicer...
[03:34] <ScheissDrogen> woli: your prob ?
[03:34] <mrtech2122> (scheissdrogen)i see the drives in gparted .but the 1 to be formatted it locked
[03:34] <woli> dr_Willis, but niether rhythmbox nor banshee let me...
[03:34] <dr_Willis> woli,  never used it..   may want to check the ubuntu forums for 'sound juicer mp3'
[03:34] <xim> how do i stop proftp?  in top i can see a process 'proftpd: (accepting connections)' but theres no proftpd in /etc/init.d/
[03:34] <woli> ScheissDrogen, em, i can't rip in MP3
[03:35] <xim> nor in synaptic amazingly
[03:35] <woli> dr_Willis, in general, the audio-profiles thing...
[03:35] <keverly> oi
[03:35] <unop> xim, perhaps it's  /etc/init.d/ftpd  ?
[03:35] <ScheissDrogen> woli: try ruby
[03:35] <woli> ScheissDrogen, how?
[03:35] <matthew_> ok...still not working
[03:35] <ryaxnb> only ksmserver has this package, unop
[03:35] <matthew_> i enabled the medibuntu repository, and i can't find both of those codecs
[03:35] <woli> ScheissDrogen, i downloaded the restricted extras, and the most i could unlock from it was the MP4 format... but still no mp3...
[03:36] <unop> ryaxnb, and what version of ksmserver do you have installed.  apt-cache policy ksmserver
[03:36] <xim> unop: hmm no dice
[03:36] <ScheissDrogen> woli: sudo apt get install ruby
[03:36] <woli> why is mp3 illegal? my god,..
[03:36] <Jordan_U> woli: What application are you trying to play mp3s with?
[03:36] <unop> ScheissDrogen, why are you asking him to install ruby?
[03:36] <thinkpaduser> woli:  are you trying to add the mp3 support to gnome-audio-profiles-properties, then Soundjuicer?
[03:36] <ScheissDrogen> unop: for ripping mp3 ?!
[03:36] <woli> Jordan_U, i can play them... i just cannot rip a CD in mp3...
[03:37] <Jordan_U> woli: Do you have lame installed?
[03:37] <woli> i don't know...
[03:37] <woli> ScheissDrogen, i installed ruby
[03:37] <dr_Willis> woli,  its tecnically illeagle - because no one has paid the liceneing fee. :)
[03:37] <unop> ScheissDrogen, ruby is a programming/scripting language not some mp3 ripper
[03:37] <unop> xim, hmm .. perhaps this should find the initscript.  dpkg -L proftpd | grep -i init
[03:38] <djhash> woli: you might need to recompile the program after you get the lame libraries..
[03:38] <woli> Jordan_U, how do i verify?
[03:38] <dr_Willis> woli,  its possible theres newer/updated versions of the apps on the medibunti repo with mp3 support.
[03:38] <Jordan_U> woli: Look in synaptic or just "sudo apt-get install lame" and if it's not installed already it will be :)
[03:38] <ScheissDrogen> woli: sudo apt get install sound-juicer                       ,  ruby is indeed wrong
[03:39] <woli> ok, now i can rip in mp3 with banshee
[03:39] <ScheissDrogen> mrtech2122:right click on the partitions, delete...
[03:39] <xim> unop: ah ok i figured it out thanks
[03:39] <dr_Willis> woli,  i tend to use 'grip' to rim my mp3's
[03:39] <unop> xim, what was it?
[03:40] <unop> dr_Willis, rim? heh .. sounds like uber-speak a sound technician would use :)
[03:40] <ScheissDrogen> unop: sound-juicer / ruby-ripper ???
[03:40] <xim> unop: it wasnt even an installed package and i realized it was the portable one im moving over to already running... oops ;p
[03:40] <ryaxnb> 3.5.9 UBuntu somethinn, unop
[03:40] <woli> dr_Willis, ScheissDrogen, Jordan_U: nevermind... I use banshee always anyway, and now it does let me rip in mp3, so thanks
[03:40] <dr_Willis> unop,  i had to ripitify the programator to enabalify the mp3ishms
[03:40] <Jordan_U> woli: np
[03:41] <speener> can anyone help? i'm trying to set up my laptop to have virtual screen with another monitor, i know it's possible because i did it on windows, but i can't figure it out on linux
[03:41] <unop> ScheissDrogen, err, no preference -- i don't personally rip many CDs
[03:41] <unop> ScheissDrogen, or use gnome for that matter
[03:41] <unop> !kde4 > ryaxnb
[03:41] <unop> xim, heh :)
[03:41] <patbam> hi, my add/remove programs program is hung. should i xkill it?
[03:42] <patbam> (i ask because i was in the process of adding something, and i don't want to bork my packages...)
[03:42] <unop> patbam, give it sometime, it might be busy -- but if it has been time, xkill it
[03:42] <ScheissDrogen> unop: sound-juicer was the right paketname , util for ripping cd to varoius formats
[03:42] <matthew_> whenever i try to use VLC to load a DVD, it sits for a few seconds, and then it just exits
[03:42] <patbam> unop: the little spinny thing has been being spinny for maybe 20 minutes
[03:43] <speener> anyone?
[03:43] <dr_Willis> spinny thing - ? ya mean the 'spinner' ? :)
[03:43] <unop> patbam, hmm, perhaps it is hung .. you can xkill it and resume installing again
[03:43] <patbam> unop: k.
[03:43] <unop> patbam, but i would suggest using the command line this time
[03:43] <unop> patbam, sudo aptitude install
[03:43] <ScheissDrogen> matthew_:tried another dvd ?  permissions to drive ? in vlc >open media... ?
[03:44] <patbam> unop: i would just use pkill but i don't know the name of the app
[03:44] <matthew_> k, k'll try a diff dvd
[03:44] <dr_Willis> matthew_,  run vlc from a terminal also.. soyou can see any error messages
[03:44] <matthew_> ya, i got an error message
[03:44] <therion> Hi, i removed "Trash" from dolphin, how can i repair it? I'm using KDE 4 (sorry for my english)
[03:44] <unop> patbam, i'm assuming synaptic. so  pkill synaptic perhaps
[03:44] <ScheissDrogen> matthew_:which error ?
[03:44] <patbam> unop: ok, i did. thanks.
[03:45] <matthew_> well, it says, "libdvdnav: vm: fialed to open/read the DVD
[03:45] <matthew_> [00000292] main input error: no suitable access module for 'player
[03:45] <matthew_> [00000283] main playlist: nothing to play
[03:45] <NaNaeL> Pouyou :o)
[03:45] <cstan8670> woot finally figured out how to get xfprot installed!!!
[03:46] <dr_Willis> matthew_,  could be its looking for the dvd in the wrong place
[03:46] <matthew_> really?
[03:46] <ScheissDrogen> matthew_:could you paste your /etc/fstab ?
[03:46] <matthew_> k, where's that?
[03:46] <Omlette> Look in the /etc/ folder.
[03:46] <speener> oh...and can i set up the monitor with a different resolution?
[03:46] <dr_Willis> i normally play dvd's from the dvd iso files. :) vlc can be told to look at /dev/dvd or other /dev/ entries.. or i thinkit can even get pointed to the mounted dvd dirctory
[03:46] <therion> Hi, i removed "Trash" from dolphin, how can i repair it? I'm using KDE 4 (sorry for my english)
[03:47] <ScheissDrogen> matthew_:sudo apt-get install pastebinit && pastebinit /etc/fstab
[03:47] <ScheissDrogen> !paste
[03:47] <matthew_> ok
[03:47] <matthew_> 1 sec
[03:47] <unop> therion, you could try asking in #kubuntu  .. the folks there tend to use KDE more
[03:47] <therion> unop: already do
[03:48] <matthew_> http://pastebin.com/f7754bdac
[03:48] <ScheissDrogen> !trash |  therion

[03:50] <unop> therion, use find to locate the dolphin directory.  find ~ -iname '*dolphin*' -type d
[03:50] <matthew_> hmm.
[03:50] <matthew_> it's working now

[03:52] <Zopiac> Q: So my computer loads the usplash, but after that, instead of showing me a nice pretty login screen, it shoves a CLI input in my face, telling me to give a login. I login with username and pass, and it gives me some welcome text, and gives me a prompt :( how do i get it to be GUI again?
[03:52] <speener> wols_: ok, i have a monitor hooked up to the laptop, and i want to have the dual monitors
[03:52] <ryaxnb> unop, i found it
[03:52] <wols_> Zopiac: ls /etc/rc.d/*dm*
[03:52] <ryaxnb> /usr/lib/bin/startkde
[03:52] <ScheissDrogen>  Zopiac: sudo gdm&   ?
[03:52] <ryaxnb> er,
[03:52] <torenhonig> Zopiac: try startx after login
[03:52] <Zopiac> wols: just that, exactly?
[03:52] <speener> but right now the monitior only mirrors my laptop and my laptop's display is set to that same resolution
[03:53] <ryaxnb> /usr/lib/kde4/bin/startkde
[03:53] <ScheissDrogen> mrtech2122:see pm
[03:53] <unop> ryaxnb, errm ok ,, odd, but anyway
[03:53] <ryaxnb> now how do i quit all these xessions on display :!, :2, and :3 that I fouled up
[03:53] <Zopiac> torenhonig: type "startx", i assume?
[03:53] <torenhonig> ya just that
[03:53] <bpat1182> Anyone get SmartSVN running in 8.04 x64?
[03:53] <unop> ryaxnb, killall xinit   # perhaps
[03:53] <Zopiac> ok

[03:56] <dudu> nao consigo me conectar no ubuntu-br
[03:56] <speener> wols_: any ideas?
[03:56] <niuq> dudu no sabía que existía para brasil
[03:56] <eHome_> niuq: and lots lots of errs, very slow, and power off, and no longer able to log in: grub err 21
[03:56] <wols_> !dualhead | speener
[03:57] <niuq> eHome_, you can't log in your system?
[03:57] <wols_> !pt | niuq
[03:57] <eHome_> niuq: no. i can not
[03:57] <wols_> eHome_: boot a livecd and check your hdds
[03:57] <eHome_> niuq: i use USB ubuntu to log in now, but can not see my pc hdd
[03:57] <wols_> eHome_: restore from backup if the hardware is OK
[03:57] <lazukars> I am a complete newbie, so please bear with me.  I downloaded ubuntu to my pc, rebooted by computer, and now what?
[03:58] <wols_> lazukars: you need to burn the ubuntu ISO to a CD
[03:58] <lazukars> I did that
[03:58] <lazukars> whois
[03:58] <wols_> lazukars: then put that CD in and boot frm it
[03:58] <lazukars> did that
[03:58] <eHome_> wols_: boot from liveCD ? and then ?
[03:58] <wols_> lazukars: then what did you see?
[03:58] <wols_> eHome_: run smartmontools on the hdd
[03:58] <l3d> The VirtualBox kernel driver is not accessible to the current user. Make sure that the user has write permissions for /dev/vboxdrv by adding them to the vboxusers groups. You will need to logout for the change to take effect..

[03:59] <niuq> eHome_, try two things, first if you have your / system in another partition get into emergency level then remove from /etc/fstab the partition that is messed up
[03:59] <lazukars> It said the installation was complete and to reboot my pc.
[03:59] <wols_> lazukars: then do that. remove the CD too
[03:59] <lazukars> When I rebooted the pc it just went right to windows.
[03:59] <niuq> eHome_, if that is not the case you can try with your installation cd or a live cd, and get into chroot /mnt/sysimage and try to fix your problems
[03:59] <wols_> lazukars: then you didn't install properly
[03:59] <lazukars> removed the cd.  I did that.
[03:59] <wols_> !install > lazukars
[03:59] <dudu> sei mais nao estou conseguindo me conectar, antes entrava direto no ubuntu-br agora entra aqui nao seu o que aconteceu
[03:59] <niuq> wols_, what was that portugues thing?
[04:00] <lazukars> how do you get a private message
[04:00] <wols_> niuq: 04:57 < niuq> dudu no sabía que existía para brasil
[04:00] <niuq> dude, yo acabo de entrar
[04:00] <wols_> lazukars: do not PM anyone unasked
[04:00] <lazukars> ok

[04:00] <niuq> wols_, he is saying that he can get in
[04:01] <niuq> omg...
[04:01] <spiritssight> any idea of a good program to get rid of dupic pix some have caps IMG and others have img but same number as it and they are the same pic
[04:01] <l3d> http://paste.ubuntu.com/42294/    ok anyideas on how to fix
[04:01] <lazukars> wois: I would like to see your private message but do not know how.  Please help.
[04:01] <wols_> lazukars: I do not PM you. and I strongly advise you not to PM me either
[04:01] <unop> spiritssight, see the fdupes app
[04:02] <unop> spiritssight, and i believe gthumb has a function to search for duplicates too
[04:02] <lazukars> but you told me to check your pm.  What?
[04:02] <Zopiac> all right, all is well. now, will i have to enter startx every time, or will it automatically start x from now on?
[04:02] <spiritssight> fdupes right?
[04:02] <wols_> l3d: the message clearly tells you what to do
[04:02] <moctezuma> hola
[04:02] <wols_> lazukars: no I did not
[04:02] <eHome_> niuq: i tried to boot from pc, and it says: grub err21; now booted from USB(which also has ubuntu), but can not see any files in /media/sda7
[04:02] <Rakeer> Is there a command i can run to tell what package a program is from?
[04:02] <bpat1182> How can I resolve this issue?  Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: smartsvn.OM  I've got the Sun JRE installed
[04:02] <l3d> i have done the genric modules and to no avail
[04:02] <wols_> Zopiac: it won't start. but you didn't do what I asked you either
[04:02] <unop> Rakeer, dpkg -S /path/to/filename
[04:02] <niuq> eHome_, ok now try a live cd
[04:03] <wols_> Rakeer: dpkg -S <path to file>
[04:03] <Rakeer> thankyou. will this work for packages not in the repo as well?
[04:03] <Zopiac> wols_: lol i tried the other guy's thing :P
[04:03] <wols_> l3d: it is a permissions problem  not a "generic modules" one, whatever that is
[04:03] <eHome_> niuq: after livecd, what should i do? i m dummy
[04:03] <unop> spiritssight, gthumb > edit > search for duplicates
[04:03] <Zopiac> ive still got your command written down tho (on my keyboard :\ lol)
[04:04] <dudu> I am not getting into the ubuntu-in, before it hinders directly into ubuntu in Portuguese now I do not know what happened enter here Direct
[04:04] <Bukoy> has anyone had experience with the screen freezing on any application (such as openoffice, etc) except firefox?
[04:04] <Zopiac> wols_: what does /etc/rc.d/*dm* doexactly?
[04:04] <niuq> eHome_, try to mount your filesystem, then chroot <your filesystem>, after that run fsck
[04:04] <wols_> Zopiac: nothing since it's gibberish
[04:04] <niuq> eHome_, or just run fsck
[04:04] <Zopiac> ?
[04:04] <wols_> niuq: fsck on a mounted filesystem is a very dumb idea
[04:05] <m8i-f3a-s4a> Bukoy: try kill esd
[04:05] <wols_> Zopiac: ls /etc/init.d/gdm
[04:05] <ScheissDrogen> eHome_: check out super grub cd, too (google)
[04:05] <eHome_> niuq: so after i login liveCD, run: fsck,-->will it take long time to finish fsck? i m a bit scared now
[04:05] <unop> Zopiac, it globs (matches) all filenames that contain dm in /etc/rc.d
[04:05] <Zopiac> oh
[04:05] <Zopiac> lol
[04:05] <Zopiac> ok
[04:05] <fluid> why cant i post on the ubuntu forums? ive posted before, and ive never been warned about anything. its telling me im doing a privileged action, or havent activated my acct.
[04:05] <wols_> eHome_: just running "fsck" won't do anything
[04:06] <niuq> eHome_, run fsck to your hd, to check for errors
[04:06] <speener> isn't xorg.conf located in /etc?
[04:06] <unop> speener, no. /etc/X11/
[04:06] <JustinF_> hello everyone
[04:06] <speener> unop: thanx
[04:06] <wols_> eHome_: most likely many files are already deleted/lost on your partition. so I doubt a fsck will help to get a running system. you need to at least reinstall grub, probably more. that's why I said, restore from backup
[04:06] <eHome_> niuq: i got a long long list of errs just now before it finish fsck
[04:06] <m8i-f3a-s4a> Bukoy: /msg ubottu etiquette
[04:06] <m8i-f3a-s4a> oops
[04:06] <m8i-f3a-s4a> sorry
[04:06] <dudu> quero entrar no ubuntu-br não sei como fasso
[04:07] <wols_> !pt | dudu
[04:07] <wols_> dudu: englush ONLY here
[04:07] <wols_> *english
[04:07] <niuq> dudu, /join #ubuntu-br
[04:07] <Zopiac> wols_: ls (LS)?
[04:07] <eHome_> ...
[04:07] <electro> how would I go about partitioning my 2 disks if I want to install ubuntu on sda1 and put my swap and all of my data on sdb
[04:07] <ScheissDrogen>  eHome_: never run e2... on a mounted fs, see man e2fsck for repair options
[04:07] <unop> Zopiac, yea, elless
[04:07] <Zopiac> just making sure
[04:07] <wols_> electro: / on sda and swap and /home on sdb
[04:07] <spiritssight> How do I start the fdupes? I have installed it but don't see it in the menu
[04:08] <eHome_> ok. will be back...
[04:08] <wols_> spiritssight: terminal
[04:08] <electro> oh ok good, that's what I did
[04:08] <unop> spiritssight, it's a command line program
[04:08] <spiritssight> thanks very much
[04:08] <electro> all of my programs I install will still be installed on sda right?
[04:08] <wols_> electro: yes
[04:08] <electro> ok cool, and stuff should run faster because my swap is on the other hard drive
[04:08] <wols_> electro: unlikely
[04:09] <electro> what?
[04:09] <bpat1182> nvm with my issue, was using the wrong JRE... was using Ubuntu's instead of Sun's... now it's fixed.
[04:09] <wols_> I said "unlikely"
[04:09] <torenhonig> electro: depends on how much ram u have...... how much do you have anyways??
[04:09] <electro> uh.. I have an older machine with only 512mb
[04:10] <JustinF_> can anyone help me with ubuntu server?
[04:10] <wols_> !anyone | JustinF_
[04:10] <torenhonig> electro: i dought the os would touch the swap partition
[04:10] <unop> electro, unless you are swapping out massive loads .. a different physical harddrive for your swap partition isn't going to give you noticeable advantages
[04:10] <ryaxnb> all right new problem
[04:10] <electro> oh ok
[04:10] <unop> electro, but good idea nonetheless
[04:10] <electro> thanks for the help
[04:11] <ryaxnb> the server won't quit on displays :2, :1 :3 and :4
[04:11] <dr_Willis> electro,  or in the old days.. of slow slow hard drives.. and low low ram.. :) it helped.. a little
[04:11] <unop> ryaxnb, killall xinit ?
[04:11] <ryaxnb> any ideas
[04:11] <ryaxnb> tried that
[04:11] <wols_> ryaxnb: you have 4 X servers running? on a server?
[04:11] <unop> ryaxnb, and what does killall say?
[04:11] <ryaxnb> In xnests
[04:11] <JustinF_> Does anybody have time to help mentor me into linux/ubuntu?
[04:11] <dr_Willis> electro,  i tend to keep a little 512mb swap partition on all my hard drives.. just in case i need to boot a live cd
[04:11] <ryaxnb> and i killled the xnest but the server apaparently lives on...
[04:11] <electro> is the gnome desktop a little too demanding to run on a system with only 512 ram?
[04:12] <wols_> JustinF_: wrong place to ask. do you have a ubuntu support question?
[04:12] <ryaxnb> and anyway it says no process found
[04:12] <Zopiac> electro: probably a little
[04:12] <wols_> ryaxnb: ps aux |grep X
[04:12] <torenhonig> electro: i wouldnt think so
[04:12] <Zopiac> electro: Xubuntu should be ok tho
[04:12] <wols_> ryaxnb: sudo ps aux|grep X
[04:12] <ryaxnb> I run GNOME on 512 and I'm demanding of my system. It works alright
[04:12] <Zopiac> wols_: when i typed "ls /etc/init.d/gdm" all it did was repeat that, in green :\
[04:13] <wols_> Zopiac: ls -al /etc/rc2.d/S*gdm
[04:13] <Zopiac> wols_: you keep changing it?
[04:13] <JustinF_> wols_ where should i ask that?
[04:13] <wols_> Zopiac: no
[04:13] <unop> Zopiac, what are you trying to do ?
[04:13] <wols_> JustinF_: nowhere. buy a book
[04:13] <dr_Willis> !training | JustinF_
[04:13] <ryaxnb> mostly NXes
[04:13] <Zopiac> im trying to get GUI at startup of login screen, not a CLI
[04:14] <JustinF_> !training
[04:14] <ryaxnb> no Xinits Xservers Xnests or etc
[04:14] <ryaxnb> I run NXserver so NX is expected...
[04:14] <rockwellgump> is there a way to extend my display to another monitor?
[04:14] <wols_> ryaxnb: what makes you sure anything is running on :1, :2 etc (and what happened to :0)
[04:14] <dr_Willis> JustinF_,  thats a bot command.. read what ubottu  said to you.
[04:14] <ryaxnb> when I Xnest :3
[04:14] <wols_> !xinerama > rockwellgump
[04:14] <speener> wols
[04:14] <Zopiac> wols_: first it was ls /etc/rc.d/*gd*, then ls /etc/init.d/gdm, and now ls -al /etc/rc2.d/S*gdm???
[04:14] <unop> Zopiac, run this command then.  sudo update-rc.d foobar defaults
[04:14] <ryaxnb> I get an error seaying an X server is active there
[04:15] <gaintsura> does anyone know if there is an RSS Feed screenlet for gnome screenlets that allow multiple feeds?
[04:15] <JustinF_> oh thank you
[04:15] <speener> wols_: that link the ubuntob or whatever gave me doesn't work at all...
[04:15] <wols_> unop: he has no clue what foobar is
[04:15] <ryaxnb> same for :2 :1 and :4
[04:15] <mooseman447> hi i wanted to add the bridge-start script to boot for openvpn how would i go about doing this even though the script isnt in /etc/init.d ?
[04:15] <unop> Zopiac, s/foobar/gdm/
[04:15] <wols_> mooseman447: man interfaces
[04:16] <Zopiac> now im just getting more confused X.X
[04:16] <dr_Willis> JustinF_,  that book at that url is a little out of date.. but its so  'basic' that most of it still applies.
[04:16] <unop> Zopiac, you want the GDM to start up when you boot the machine?
[04:16] <Zopiac> ya
[04:16] <unop> Zopiac,  sudo update-rc.d gdm defaults
[04:16] <Zopiac> tried it
[04:16] <Bukoy> what url has troubleshooting guides i can look at for a problem with my ubuntu desktop?
[04:17] <unop> Zopiac, now reboot or just start the GDM
[04:17] <Rakeer> how do I return a package version?
[04:17] <danbhfive> Bukoy: whats the problem?
[04:17] <danbhfive> Rakeer: try using synaptic
[04:17] <wols_> danbhfive: dpkg -l <package>
[04:17] <unop> Rakeer, dpkg -l packageglob
[04:17] <wols_> Rakeer: ^^
[04:17] <Bukoy> it freezes after using almost any application except firefox
[04:17] <mbrigdan> !xinerama > mbrigdan
[04:17] <Rakeer> im dealing with packages not in the repository, thanks
[04:18] <wols_> Rakeer: then you can't since they aren't packages...
[04:18] <Rakeer> next time ill do dpkg --help :P
[04:18] <unop> !hostname > Zopiac
[04:18] <geremy> is there a quick way to know what .deb in /var/cache/apt/archives corresponds to a given package?
[04:18] <Wicked> hello all
[04:18] <Wicked> i just lost a hard drive and i want to know what ive lost. when i use locate it still shows some of the stuff
[04:19] <wols_> geremy: there are no .debs in that directory
[04:19] <Wicked> how can i a: back up that db. and b: dump that db to a txt file
[04:19] <Wicked> so i know what ive lost
[04:19] <l3d> ok I should have took the time to read the error better oh and log out and back in now thw virtualbox works fine ty
[04:19] <unop> geremy, a .deb file is off this format  $packagename-$version-$architecture.deb
[04:19] <wols_> Wicked: updatedb runs 6:20am each morning to update the locaddb
[04:19] <Wicked> time is kinda ticking untill it runs again and over writes the db
[04:19] <danbhfive> Bukoy: I think there is a way that involves ssh'ing into your machine, and running some stuff, but I'm unfamiliar with all this stuff.  Here is a link anyway: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebuggingProcedures
[04:19] <wols_> *locatedb
[04:19] <Wicked> wols_, where is it stored?
[04:19] <Wicked> and can i dump it?
[04:19] <wols_> Wicked: what stored?
[04:19] <Wicked> wols_, the database
[04:19] <_woli_> is there any music player that will organize my music, like itunes does?
[04:19] <Bukoy> thanks danbhfive
[04:20] <wols_> Wicked: WHICH database?
[04:20] <Xcerca> How do i make it so compiz starts when i log in (with gnome), right now i have to do  Applications > System Tools > Compiz Fusion Icon ? Then when it comes up i have to press Reload window manager for everything to work
[04:20] <geremy> wols_: I believe there are, according to the online docs
[04:20] <wols_> geremy: BS
[04:20] <Wicked> wols_, the database updatedb uses.
[04:20] <wols_> geremy: in the directory you named there isn't a single .deb
[04:20] <geremy> unop: thx
[04:20] <dres> Wicked: "locate '*' > db.dump"
[04:20] <Jordan_U> _woli_: Many, Amarok is highly recommended, and I believe banshee has an itunes like interface
[04:20] <danbhfive> Wicked: here is a hack.      locate * > my_filelisting.txt
[04:20] <geremy> wols_: I'm finding plenty, and the docs indicate they should be there.
[04:20] <unop> wols_, you probably have the directory cleaned out
[04:21] <unop> wols_, with something like apt-get clean
[04:21] <wols_> Wicked: sudo updatedb to update it manually
[04:21] <l3d> i was also wondering is there a small systray music player thats simple not all  fancy gui and all
[04:21] <Wicked> danbhfive, that only outputs a few lines....
[04:21] <wols_> unop: no. that directory simply has no debs
[04:21] <Wicked> wols_, did u not read my question?
[04:21] <geremy> unop: can you please confirm that is the correct directory?
[04:21] <Jordan_U> danbhfive: Wicked That command will give you results you won't expect, try "locate \*" :)
[04:21] <danbhfive> Wicked: see what dres said
[04:21] <dres> Wicked: try mine
[04:21] <wols_> unop: /var/cache/apt != /var/cache/apt/archives/
[04:21] <unop> wols_, you have a non-standard setup then
[04:21] <Wicked> ok awesome
[04:22] <Wicked> thanks guys. let me try these
[04:22] <wols_> unop: wrong
[04:22] <unop> geremy, it is the correct directory
[04:22] <geremy> wols_: I am staring at it. are you running an older version, perhaps?
[04:22] <geremy> wols_: or intrepid?
[04:22] <Wicked> cuz right now....i have NO idea what i lost...i just know i lost about 500gigs of stuff
[04:22] <wols_> geremy: ls -l /var/cache/apt
[04:22] <wols_> Wicked:where was the disk mounted?
[04:22] <Jordan_U> danbhfive: Remember that wild cards are expanded by the shell before they get to the program / command so locate * will expand to "locate <all of the files in the current directory>" :)
[04:22] <_woli_> Jordan_U, banshee does have a similar itunes interface, but will not organize my music...
[04:22] <geremy> wols_: I get the archives directory etc
[04:23] <Balam> horale que no este es el de español o solo que alguien esta contestando en ingles
[04:23] <geremy> wols_: no debs
[04:23] <Wicked> wols_, yes. it just died. like a hour ago. ive tried everything.
[04:23] <Wicked> wols_, it just spins up...clicks...spins down.
[04:23] <wols_> geremy: yes. archives directory is NOT a .deb, is it? I told you already: /var/cache/apt != /var/cache/apt/archives/
[04:23] <wols_> Wicked: answer my question and don't talk gibberish
[04:23] <wols_> !es | Balam
[04:23] <unop> geremy, pay no attention to him
[04:24] <Balam> gracias
[04:24] <Balam> perdon
[04:24] <danbhfive> Jordan_U: interesting, thanks, I get it
[04:24] <wols_> unop: do you have .deb files in /var/cache/apt?
[04:24] <geremy> wols_: I'm sorry, but you're clearly not understanding. I am staring at this, and it is fact; I am staring at the online docs, and they appear correct. unop confirms. something is wrong on *your* end
[04:24] <Wicked> Wicked, do you not read what i type. <Wicked> wols_, yes.
[04:24] <wols_> geremy: ls -l /var/cache/apt
[04:24] <unop> wols_, no
[04:24] <jigp> hello how to know the users who connect via ssh?
[04:24] <unop> wols_, but i do have plenty under archives/ under that directory
[04:25] <wols_> Wicked: "yes" is not an answer to the question "where was the disk mounted", is it?
[04:25] <geremy> wols_: I have already done so, and confirmed the correct placements according to the docs
[04:25] <bpat1182> I'm trying to compile subdiversvn for my x64 ubuntu system, and I'm getting this error: configure: error: C compiler cannot create executables.  What's the issue?  GCC passes
[04:25] <wols_> unop: yes, but NOT in /var/cache/apt.
