[16:51] <bruenig> Titan8990: I don't have ubuntu right now
[16:51] <Titan8990> bruenig, but I think it mostly just purges /etc/ dir
[16:51] <bruenig> hmm
[16:52] <Titan8990> bruenig, I have had purge leave lots of things behind i did not want it to....
[16:52] <bruenig> yes I am pretty sure that is the case, but some fool is telling me it has the ability to touch the home directory which I cannot imagine being possible
[16:52] <Titan8990> bruenig, it would be odd, since it needs to be ran as root or sudo
[16:52] <Andry> omg
[16:52] <Andry> please guy help me
[16:53] <Maarek> I just got questioned from the IT staff for using NMAP... I ran the scan it their security software picked it up.
[16:53] <ahabman> Mip5: it's a dell laptop.  reboots don't help.  I'm gonna try to find a different usb keyboard to hook up.  Glad to know this sounds really strange to others
[16:53] <Andry> I have "Loading stage1.5"
[16:53] <Andry> all over the screen
[16:53] <Andry> it's printing that thing to my monitor
[16:53] <Maarek> I ran the scan for my server and they picked it up
[16:53] <Titan8990> Maarek, and you have permission?
[16:53] <profanephobia> Where can i download Ubuntu 9.04?
[16:54] <Maarek> not anymore.  Their bringing in security "stuff" due to malware and something our datacenter did to bring this onto us
[16:54] <fosco__> profanephobia, www.ubuntu.com/testing/jaunty/alpha4, but please join #ubuntu+1 for jaunty support
[16:54] <Andry> I think my grub has someproblems
[16:54] <Mip5> ahabman - good luck! You could also try booting into knoppix or ubuntu live cd and seeing how it works. That will take the install/configs out of the question, and you can determine whether it's hardware or software.
[16:55] <Titan8990> Maarek, you will likely not find anyone willing to help you port scan somewhere that you do not have permission to do so
[16:55] <arvind_khadri> Andry, re-install grub
[16:55] <arvind_khadri> !grub > Andry
[16:55] <Maarek> Titan8990:  no, I ran a scan to an outside site, nowhere on our network
[16:55] <ahabman> Mip5: good advice, I'll give it a go.  Thanks.
[16:55] <Titan8990> Maarek, still illegal and against ISP regulations in many countries
[16:56] <Mip5> ahabman - you're welcome. I'm glad I could assist - I actually came in to get with my problem
[16:56] <Matic> Hae all, I have mysql Version: '5.0.51a-3ubuntu5.4 in my Ubuntu Hardy - I run it in a very crude way, that is I have to create the folder /var/run/mysqld for it to run, failure to that it will tell me that the socket file is not existing, so far I have tries so much to ensure that the server runs at boot time but it nevers runs, what could be the problem here? Please help
[16:56] <Bashiii> How can I get rid of mouse1+mouse2 being paste?
[16:57] <Titan8990> Bashiii, just a guess, emulate 3buttons in xorg.conf
[16:58] <Bashiii> :/... Quite literally don't understand what you're saying :S
[16:58] <Mip5> no problem
[16:58] <Maarek> Titan8990:  Thanks, I did not know that.

[16:59] <arvind_khadri> !grub | Andry

[17:00] <Andry> arvind_khadri: I have a loop cycle of "loading stage1.5"
[17:00] <Andry> do you happen to know how to help me?
[17:00] <arvind_khadri> Andry, re-install grub!!!
[17:01] <Bashiii> Nothing like that :/
[17:02] <slashzul> whats the app that lets you pick the one of many desktops?
[17:02] <Andry> arvind_khadri: I have no interaction with my pc
[17:02] <Titan8990> slashzul, many desktops have that by default
[17:02] <slashzul> trying to add it to Awn Manager launcher...
[17:02] <hawodi>  Am trying out cakephp in ubuntu intrepid and the page is not applying the css. Am trying to follow the blog tutorial.
[17:02] <hawodi> I have enabled mod_rewrite and configured /etc/apache2/sites-enabled/000-default
[17:02] <arvind_khadri> Andry, boot from a love-cd
[17:02] <slashzul> yes Titan, I just need the name of the app , my gnome desktop has it
[17:02] <beautifulsnow> *curses lots and lots more* anyone know how to make my mousepad stop erasing what I write?!?!
[17:02] <Titan8990> slashzul, desktop switcher I believe is the name of the awn applet
[17:02] <arvind_khadri> Andry, sorry live-cd :D
[17:03] <hawodi> hello
[17:03] <Titan8990> slashzul, its an applet, not a launcher
[17:03] <Andry> arvind_khadri: lol, the live cd of ubuntu 8.10
[17:03] <arvind_khadri> Andry, ya :)
[17:03] <Andry> arvind_khadri: then its easy to reinstall grub?
[17:03] <D_likescookies> anyone know where I can get more applets?
[17:03] <Andry> do I have any loss of files?
[17:04] <arvind_khadri> Andry, ya just follow the page the bot gave... no loss of files
[17:04] <slashzul> its called workspace switcher but I dont know the actual name of the app
[17:04] <Andry> arvind_khadri: ok thank you
[17:04] <arvind_khadri> Andry, np
[17:05] <agroker> I have a problem with Ekiga under Kubuntu - it used to start and work a few days ago, but now I'm receiving error messages about .evolution/a file, can anybody help please?
[17:05] <beautifulsnow> Hmmm my mouse doesn't work but I don't know what to do?
[17:05] <simsl> can anyone tell me how to mount a ntfs drive automatically on boot up?
[17:05] <burkmat> Copying ISO to USB for USB-install: Getting 3 symlink errors - Do I manually set these up or assume there are other symlinks that have failed - and if so, what's the recommended command to copy the ISO to USB?
[17:06] <arvind_khadri> !fstab | simsl
[17:07] <Titan8990> burkmat, if you are using cp, there is a flag to have cp preserve links
[17:08] <burkmat> Titan8990, ...but will it preserve them relative to their own path or not? Don't want the USB pointing to a nonexistant ISO. :P
[17:08] <ahabman> Votes for best way to most simply backup/restore an entire system (8.10 desktop)?  (image, tar.gz, other)
[17:08] <Gnea> !best | ahabman
[17:09] <AJC_Z0> What's the correct way to set a user defined search path in /etc/resolv.conf?
[17:09] <Titan8990> burkmat, I was wrong anyways, was thinking of rsync, sorry
[17:09] <burkmat> Titan8990, Ah... Well I'll just set 'em up manually. :)
[17:09] <Titan8990> burkmat, are you following a guide?
[17:09] <Titan8990> burkmat, I would think that dd would preserve links correctly
[17:09] <burkmat> Titan8990, The one at ubottus !usb, but doesn't say anything about specific copy cmds.
[17:09] <ahabman> will do, any suggestions though?
[17:09] <Titan8990> !usb
[17:10] <marko-_-> hey guys how do i see with which filesystem a partition is mounted ? does someone know ?
[17:10] <simsl> is there any apps i can down load to configure this?
[17:10] <burkmat> Titan8990, The install-guide btw, not live.
[17:10] <burkmat> Titan8990, But there are only 3 errors with symlinks, I'm just going to try gluing them together myself.
[17:10] <Titan8990> burkmat, worth a shot
[17:11] <teamregis> hey anyone else seen weird things gong on in Gmail chat?
[17:12] <teamregis> A lot of guys simultaneously sent me different tinyurls all pointing to one site
[17:12] <Titan8990> burkmat, you are right, that documentation is missing a step
[17:12] <burkmat> Titan8990, ...odd. `ln -s intrepid unstable`, as root, gives me "Error: Operation not permitted"...
[17:12] <Titan8990> burkmat, it tells how to do it in windows but not in linux, kind of absurd....
[17:12] <Titan8990> burkmat, do:  sudo ln -s
[17:13] <Titan8990> burkmat, but I always recommend absolute paths with ln
[17:13] <burkmat> Titan8990, Running in a root shell... `sudo su`.
[17:13] <burkmat> Titan8990, Well it's a USB-stick...
[17:13] <donlimpio> Salve a tutti gli amici di #ubuntu !!!!!! (^_^)y
[17:13] <burkmat> !it | donlimpio
[17:13] <Titan8990> burkmat, what format is the usb stick?
[17:14] <burkmat> Titan8990, FAT32.
[17:14] <Titan8990> burkmat, that may be it, doubt fat32 can do symlinks
[17:14] <burkmat> Titan8990, Hmm... Icky. It's recommended though in the install guide to use FAT16 or 32.
[17:14] <Titan8990> burkmat, but then again, the guide says fat32 is fine
[17:15] <Titan8990> burkmat, yeah, I saw that
[17:15] <freegoo> hey guys what is this file used for mt86plus??
[17:15] <Titan8990> burkmat, you could just make copies instead of symlinks
[17:15] <burkmat> Titan8990, Maybe they're not important symlinks anyways... :P /dists/stable, unstable and /ubuntu.
[17:15] <burkmat> Titan8990, Yeah... Guess I'll do that if they're not too big.
[17:16] <burkmat> Titan8990, 416KB, I'll manage. Thanks for the help... We ought to have that guide updated though.
[17:16] <sid> How do I find out my ssh private key?
[17:16] <Titan8990> burkmat, I agree
[17:16] <burkmat> sid, You need to generate one if you haven't, but it's default in .ssh/id_rsa iirc.
[17:16] <freegoo> the file is inside "/install/" but whawt is it used for mt86plus??
[17:17] <hotbaby1> hey titan
[17:17] <Elbachiri_> السلام عليكم
[17:17] <hotbaby1> i type lspci
[17:17] <hotbaby1> nothing happened??
[17:17] <burkmat> hotbaby1, sudo maybe?
[17:17] <mhall119> freegoo: that's the memory test program
[17:18] <hotbaby1> it shows all the controller
[17:18] <hotbaby1> will that enable the wireless ?
[17:18] <Mip5> Hey Folks - I'm running Ubuntu 8.04 and have raid1 going for / (md0) and also swap (md1). I marked a drive as failed, then removed it from the array. When I rebooted, I got an ALERT! that md0 was missing, and it dropped me down to initrmfs Busy Box.
[17:18] <burkmat> Titan8990, ...symlink at /ubuntu points to /... Really don't feel like copying the root, think it'll manage without? ^^
[17:18] <Titan8990> hotbaby1, no, I told you what lscpi did.....
[17:18] <hotbaby1> hello
[17:18] <freegoo> mhall119: thanks alot
[17:18] <mhall119> hotbaby1: lspci only lists PCI devices, it doesn't enable/disable anything
[17:18] <Titan8990> burkmat, worth a shot atleast
[17:18] <burkmat> !patience | hotbaby1
[17:18] <hotbaby1> so??
[17:18] <hotbaby1> sorry..
[17:19] <Titan8990> hotbaby1, lspci  is  a  utility for displaying information about PCI buses in the system and devices connected to them.
[17:19] <hotbaby1> the wireless doesn't light up still
[17:19] <mhall119> hotbaby1: did lspci list your wireless card's information?
[17:19] <Mip5> This is an LTSP server.
[17:19] <hotbaby1> it list
[17:19] <hotbaby1> how to enable?
[17:19] <hotbaby1> network controller :BCM4311 WLAN
[17:19] <hotbaby1> etc..
[17:19] <mhall119> with a driver, but you don't know what driver you need unless you know what card you have
[17:19] <Titan8990> !bcm43x
[17:20] <Titan8990> !wireless
[17:20] <hotbaby1> should i use ndiswrapper
[17:20] <cooldduuudde> !
[17:20] <hotbaby1> wifi or build-in wireless light doesn't show up
[17:20] <Titan8990> hotbaby1, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Driver/bcm43xx
[17:20] <Titan8990> hotbaby1, no, you shouldn't
[17:21] <hotbaby1> the link only tells me to list wifi
[17:21] <hotbaby1> doenst' tell me how to enable
[17:21] <hotbaby1> faint
[17:22] <cooldduuudde> !java
[17:22] <hotbaby1> 4 docs
[17:22] <hotbaby1> which one?
[17:22] <beautifulsnow> Could someone pastebin me with a xorg.conf that's fresh from install? (yes i know it depends on computer)
[17:22] <cooldduuudde> !medibuntu
[17:22] <hotbaby1> come on...no one know how to enable wireless in this channel?
[17:22] <beautifulsnow> !enter
[17:23] <mhall119> hotbaby1: you need to find out what driver you need, then "sudo modprobe $driver"
[17:23] <grobda24> beautifulsnow, you can get apt to reinstall it ... a search would prob turn up the command
[17:23] <simsl> i have the fstab open what do i add to mount a ntfs drive automatically
[17:23] <beautifulsnow> grobda24, yeah I dont want the whole file to go to the defaults, i just need 1 section
[17:24] <cooldduuudde> are medibuntu packages reliable?
[17:24] <grobda24> What is the X GUI that can auto detect monitor freq's ... it ran when I restarted before ... now I can't find it.
[17:24] <grobda24> ?
[17:25] <beautifulsnow> grobda24, just need the default mouse setup  because i messed that up ;p
[17:25] <glitsj16> cooldduuudde: very much so yes
[17:25] <grobda24> beautifulsnow, always make xorg.conf.bak ... bak1 ... bak2 backups.
[17:26] <beautifulsnow> Yes I know I just overwrote it by accident
[17:26] <Titan8990> grobda24, hehe. I have 5....
[17:26] <vigo> grobda24: Maybe you are speaking of Compiz?
[17:26] <mhall119> or better yet, create a bzr repo for /etc
[17:26] <grobda24> vigo, no, this is what starts when X can't find a valid monitor setup.
[17:27] <Matic> beautifulsnow, There you are - http://paste.ubuntu.com/122475/
[17:27] <mhall119> X should start in a fail-safe mode that just uses the vesa driver
[17:27] <cooldduuudde> i got a proble after adding medibuntu as per https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Medibuntu
[17:27] <beautifulsnow> Matic, *thumbs up* Thanks a lot :D
[17:28] <vigo> grobda24: Oh.ok, I am still learning
[17:28] <cooldduuudde> W: GPG error: http://packages.medibuntu.org intrepid Release: The following signatures couldn't be verified because the public key is not available: NO_PUBKEY 2EBC26B60C5A2783
[17:28] <Matic> beautifulsnow, your welcome
[17:28] <cooldduuudde> any ideas?
[17:29] <mhall119> cooldduuudde: did you add their public key?
[17:29] <grobda24> cooldduuudde, check medibuntu wiki entry ... run through key setup instructions again ?
[17:30] <glitsj16> cooldduuudde: means you have a ppa launchpad repository active without a GPG key, look at http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-1054906.html for a fix
[17:30] <cooldduuudde> mhall119: i just did this: sudo wget http://www.medibuntu.org/sources.list.d/intrepid.list --output-document=/etc/apt/sources.list.d/medibuntu.list
[17:30] <mhall119> cooldduuudde: do this too: "sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install medibuntu-keyring && sudo apt-get update"
[17:31] <mhall119> that one can't be authenticated, but installing it anyway will evidently add the medibuntu signing key to your approved list
[17:31] <roadrock> first- sudo wget http://www.medibuntu.org/sources.list.d/hardy.list --output-document=/etc/apt/sources.list.d/medibuntu.list
[17:31] <vigo> cooldduuudde: Maybe the logout sudo timer is set too low?
[17:31] <glitsj16> cooldduuudde: my bad, ignore the link (which is for ppa launchpad key issues, not medibuntu)
[17:32] <roadrock> then-  sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install medibuntu-keyring && sudo apt-get update
[17:32] <cooldduuudde> W: GPG error: http://packages.medibuntu.org intrepid Release: The following signatures couldn't be verified because the public key is not available: NO_PUBKEY 2EBC26B60C5A2783

[17:32] <vigo> Is Medibuntu an official release or is it yet?
[17:32] <cooldduuudde> i got this error wen i used what mhall119 told
[17:32] <jim_p> vigo, medibuntu is a REPO, not a distro
[17:32] <SingAlong> Hi all
[17:32] <roadrock> cooldduuudde: you have another package manager running perhaps?
[17:33] <cooldduuudde> yeah synaptic
[17:33] <vigo> jim_p: Thank you
[17:33] <jim_p> :)
[17:33] <roadrock> cooldduuudde: close it.
[17:33] <mhall119> cooldduuudde: the command I gave you will show an authentication error, but you should be able to force it anyway
[17:34] <SingAlong> My website blog.akashxav.com showed a dns error around an hour back. and then it is fine (and viewable to others). but still i get the dns error page on my firefox. I restarted ubuntu, cleared my cache, restarted my router, but nothing works.
[17:34] <SingAlong> running 8.04
[17:34] <cooldduuudde> mhall119: Install these packages without verification [y/N]?
[17:34] <mhall119> yes
[17:34] <mistrynitesh> hello all, i need help setting up mail account in evolution
[17:34] <mhall119> medibuntu, for some reason, includes their signing key in one of their packages, instead of just hosting it online somewhere for download
[17:35] <mhall119> mistrynitesh: having trouble, or just don't know how?
[17:35] <Matic> mistrynitesh, gmail, yahoo, yourown or what?
[17:35] <papapep> SingAlong: your sites works correctly now
[17:35] <cooldduuudde> mhall119 yeah google offers it on its site
[17:35] <SingAlong> papapep: but i still get the dns error page
[17:35] <mistrynitesh> mhall119: having trouble.... i added the account
[17:35] <SingAlong> papapep: on my comp
[17:35] <papapep> where?
[17:35] <mhall119> mistrynitesh: what trouble?
[17:36] <SingAlong> papapep: I restarted everything. comp, router, cleared ff cache. but still
[17:36] <papapep> SingAlong: but wich is the exact message
[17:36] <SingAlong> papapep: "DNS error - server not found"
[17:36] <mistrynitesh> i added the account (incoming pop & outgoing smtp) but it shows "error fetching mail"
[17:37] <mhall119> SingAlong: is it a new domain, or recently moved?
[17:37] <papapep> SingAlong: if you specify directly the ip, it works?
[17:37] <mhall119> mistrynitesh: who is your mail host?
[17:37] <SingAlong> mhall119: since 2 days. it works for others bro. just not on my comp
[17:37] <Rovanion> Is there a gui avable for 7zip? If so what's the name for it?
[17:37] <witti> a
[17:37] <SingAlong> papapep: the main domain akashxav.com works fine on my comp. just the blog subdomain
[17:37] <mistrynitesh> mhall: logix
[17:37] <mhall119> SingAlong: maybe your ISP's DNS servers just haven't propogated the change?
[17:37] <cooldduuudde> i can't find googleearth in medibuntu
[17:38] <papapep> mhall119: it looks like something like that...
[17:38] <lascar> !skype
[17:38] <SingAlong> mhall119: oh. but my other website's blog subdomain which i configured together works right.
[17:38] <mhall119> mistrynitesh: do they require authentication or something like that which you didn't configure in Evolution?
[17:38] <papapep> but two days its too much time
[17:38] <lascar> how can i get my bluetooth headset to work in ubuntu?
[17:38] <SingAlong> papapep: ya
[17:39] <Abracadabra> hi, what is the file or files where you can modify network settings such as DNS, gateway, etc.. ?
[17:39] <SingAlong> papapep: and works for everyone else except me.
[17:39] <mhall119> SingAlong: for a subdomain, your ISP's servers will check with the domain host's servers.  For a new domain, your ISP won't know who the domain host is
[17:39] <mistrynitesh> mhall: yes, i require to put the password, but in evolution, it does not ask for one
[17:39] <Titan8990> !bluetooth | lascar
[17:39] <grobda24> lascar, hv you tried searching the unbuntu wiki .. official and the unofficial/community docs ?
[17:39] <Lint01> how can I download some *.deb from repository, which is already installed? apt-get -d install xxx doesn't work.
[17:39] <mhall119> mistrynitesh: it should ask the first time it tries to connect, so maybe it can't find the mailhost?
[17:40] <papapep> did you compare both configurations (of one of the working subdomains and the one that does not), to try to find the problem?
[17:40] <shadeslayer>  im sorry for being a pest
[17:40] <shadeslayer> [23:09] <shadeslayer> http://www.robertourso.com/?p=16
[17:40] <shadeslayer> [23:09] <shadeslayer> i followed the instructions there,and copied the folders to .theme folder
[17:40] <FloodBot3> shadeslayer: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[17:40] <shadeslayer> [23:10] <shadeslayer> but i cant get the theme working
[17:40] <shadeslayer> oops
[17:40] <shadeslayer> how did it get there
[17:40] <shadeslayer> sorry
[17:40] <odder> hm. Anyone heard about a ".deg" audio file format?
[17:40] <mhall119> middle-click?
[17:40] <shadeslayer>  http://www.robertourso.com/?p=16
[17:41] <mistrynitesh> mhall: but i am putting exactly the same thing as mentioned in the manual "mail.logix.in"
[17:41] <shadeslayer> how do i install that
[17:41] <shear> is there a eeeXUbuntu channel on freenode?
[17:41] <shadeslayer> i copied the folders
[17:41] <mhall119> mistrynitesh: using the right port?
[17:41] <glitsj16> Rovanion: 7zip archives are handled pretty well lately by GUI archive managers like file-roller (which is in the repo's), but peazip.sourceforge.net does it too
[17:41] <papapep> SingAlong: did you compare both configurations (of one of the working subdomains and the one that does not), to try to find the problem?
[17:41] <mistrynitesh> mhall: ah! let me check
[17:41] <Jack_Sparrow> !eee
[17:42] <Rovanion> glitsj16, I would like to handle some .rar archives
[17:42] <SingAlong> papapep: ya
[17:42] <SingAlong> papapep: same config
[17:43] <papapep> SingAlong: and your isp's config, did you ask them about the problem?
[17:43] <mistrynitesh> mhall: there is no provision for specifying port in Edit-->Preferences
[17:43] <shadeslayer> so no idea ?? anyone?
[17:43] <SingAlong> papapep: their customer care works only from 10am-3pm
[17:43] <mhall119> mistrynitesh: use host:port format in the Server field
[17:43] <papapep> SingAlong: if you've got it all correctly, it has to be your isp's fault :-/
[17:44] <mhall119> oops, that didn't come across right
[17:44] <mhall119> host : port format in the Server field
[17:44] <papapep> SingAlong: then you'll have to wait until then (don't know what time it is where you live...:-))
[17:44] <shear> Jack_Sparrow, thanks, except that's not even kind of what I'm looking for.
[17:44] <SingAlong> papapep: 11.15pm. India :)
[17:44] <glitsj16> Rovanion: there's a few packages you might be interested in: rar, unrar and p7zip-rar
[17:45] <shear> just wondering if anyone knows a channel
[17:45] <mistrynitesh> mhall: spaces in between?
[17:45] <mhall119> no, I had to put spaces in to avoid : p from becoming the emoticon :p
[17:45] <Rovanion> Does any of them come with a sweet UI?
[17:45] <shadeslayer> guys??
[17:45] <mhall119> Rovanion: does file-roller handle rar?
[17:45] <mistrynitesh> ok
[17:46] <mistrynitesh> mhall: tried that but no luck
[17:46] <dirollordi> list
[17:46] <shadeslayer> im gonna pester everybody for support lol
[17:46] <Rovanion> mhall119, Nope it doesnt
[17:46] <glitsj16> Rovanion: they all integrate fine with file-roller for ex.,
[17:46] <shadeslayer> :)
[17:46] <night_> hi @ all
[17:46] <night_> i need help
[17:46] <Rovanion> Ah okey, will try it out then.
[17:47] <shadeslayer> night_: we all do
[17:47] <night_> i wanted to install the radeonhd-driver, but it doesn't work.....
[17:47] <shadeslayer> :)
[17:47] <night_> ^
[17:47] <shadeslayer> !doesntwork
[17:47] <papapep> shear: i guess you'd better ask in #xubuntu
[17:47] <night_> ok.... i try to write examples
[17:48] <superkiwi> Hello, what is the name of the application showing all the Ubuntu settings?
[17:48] <mhall119> there isnt one application that shows all settings
[17:48] <superkiwi> I mean, points to the settings of othyer programs
[17:48] <mhall119> I don't even think there's one like that
[17:48] <superkiwi> I'm on openbox, and I want to configure printer etc.
[17:49] <freethewhat> superkiwi, gnome-control-center
[17:49] <superkiwi> I'm pretty sure i've seen and used one - very similar in compiz-settings application
[17:49] <mhall119> superkiwi: system-config-printer
[17:49] <superkiwi> Yay, thanks alot - that's the one :)
[17:51] <night_> i have downloaded the xserver-xorg-video-radeonhd package and all of its dependecies..... then i removed fglrx, according to the how-to-install of radeonhd and entered radeonhd in the xorg.conf.... then the tutorial said that  i have to restart the system, and so i did... when i booted my system again ubuntu has written an error that it can't find any graphic card.... can some1 help me install radeonhd correctly?
[17:51] <mistrynitesh> !evolution
[17:52] <superkiwi> How do I login as another user when using openbox? :X
[17:52] <night_> !radeonhd
[17:53] <freethewhat> superkiwi, through gui or cli?
[17:53] <SHyx0rmZ> !xorg
[17:53] <vigo> If I install Ubuntu 9. Jaunty and have Ubuntu 8.04.2 Hardy on one HDD will they conflict or be as separate systems?
[17:53] <mistrynitesh> !mail settings
[17:53] <night_> !xserver
[17:53] <superkiwi> freethewhat: whtaver works.
[17:53] <Izinucs> I just ssh's into my server and initiated a xinit -- :1 from TTY3.. then I did "startxfce4" to start the gui.. when it started it put the session on F10 and moved my current local gui session from F7 to F9.. Why did that happen?
[17:53] <Titan8990> vigo, they will use the same bootloader but that will be all
[17:53] <Titan8990> !jaunty | vigo
[17:54] <vigo> Thank you
[17:54] <night_> can some1 help me with radeonhd?
[17:54] <freethewhat> superkiwi, CTRL-ALT F1-F9 will take you to alternate ttys
[17:54] <freethewhat> superkiwi, you can then log in from there
[17:55] <night_> !xorg
[17:55] <superkiwi> freethewhat: But I want to login to a GUI, like gnome/metacity
[17:55] <Titan8990> freethewhat, there are only 7 by defualt in ubuntu with 7 being xserver
[17:55] <mistrynitesh> mhall: tried the ports with and without spaces but doesn't work... any other thing i need to look at?
[17:55] <freethewhat> Titan8990, really?  thats good to know :)
[17:56] <freethewhat> superkiwi, ooh that i'm not sure
[17:56] <SHyx0rmZ> !superblock
[17:56] <night_> @ all: does some1 have an ati-graphic card and has installed radeonhd??
[17:56] <mhall119> mistrynitesh: make sure you can find and connect to the hostname from your computer
[17:56] <superkiwi> I see. Ubuntu has a "login as another user" or something. I want to get to gdm and login with another user.
[17:56] <mhall119> superkiwi: to start gnome, run gnome-session
[17:56] <mistrynitesh> mhall: you mean "ping mail.logix.in" from terminal?
[17:57] <mhall119> mistrynitesh: that, or telnet if it's not an encrypted connection
[17:57] <dinsdale07> Does anyone of you use a Kensignton slimblade mouse on Ubuntu. Does the 360 ball work on linux?
[17:57] <mhall119> telnet $host:110 for POP3 (if I'm remembering correctly)
[17:57] <mhall119> some networks block ping packets
[17:58] <superkiwi> With gnome-session I get "can't find window' (literal translation from norwegian).
[17:58] <timahvo1> !boot options
[17:58] <freethewhat> superkiwi, are you afraid of losing your current xsession?
[17:58] <timahvo1> !boot
[17:58] <mistrynitesh> mhall: so I type "telnet mail.logix.in:110"
[17:59] <mhall119> yeah, try that
[17:59] <raer> Hey, I'm trying to run Xubuntu on my Acer Aspire AOD150, and I can't seem to get the sound card working
[17:59] <superkiwi> freethewhat: I was actually going to login and find the gnome-control-center application, but I have that now so it's not a big deal. THanks for the help.
[17:59] <mistrynitesh> mhall: here is the reply from terminal " could not resolve mail.logix.in:110/telnet: Name or service not known"
[17:59] <raer> I updated ALSA to 1.19, but only the headphones work
[18:00] <rvn> i want to overlay rounded corners to the screen, so that it looks like an old CRT display. i need a program that can display images on the x desktop, preferably on top of any windows
[18:00] <keni495> make -C /lib/modules/2.6.24-19-lpia/build SUBDIRS=/home/keni/download/flashcam-1.3 вот зачем онмне ...
[18:01] <mhall119> mistrynitesh: sorry, should be "telnet $host $port", a space instead of colon
[18:01] <mistrynitesh> mhall: in a minute
[18:01] <rvn> i need a program capable of displaying images (preferably animated ones) on top of all windows on the desktop, while still being able to use apps and windows under the images
[18:02] <quibbler> rvn: xpenguins
[18:02] <rvn> can xpenguins display anything besides penguins? :P
[18:03] <mhall119> yes
[18:03] <juaco> for *local* mirroring with rsync (mirroring two local directories), is it better to just rsync the two dirs or to fire a rsync daemon and do that over the loopback??? wouldn't the latter take advantage of partial file copying and/or other advanced rsync algorithms?
[18:03] <mistrynitesh> mhall: it says connected to $host
[18:03] <quibbler> rvn: penguins with ballons
[18:03] <mhall119> mistrynitesh: okay then....
[18:03] <Carpe|Diem> when I want to move a folder and I use the mv command from a terminal, do the permissions and ownership of the moved folder change? I'm on a livecd and im moving stuff
[18:03] <mhall119> in the telnet session type USER $yourusername
[18:03] <rvn> quibbler, looking for a more customizable solution? lol
[18:03] <mhall119> then PASS $yourpasswd
[18:03] <mhall119> see if it will accept them
[18:04] <mistrynitesh> mhall: but it doesn't return to the prompt
[18:04] <_VIM_> !enter
[18:04] <quibbler> rvn: ok...but you're missing a lot of fun!
[18:04] <mhall119> mistrynitesh: you won't get a prompt
[18:04] <mhall119> you'll be connected to the POP3 server
[18:04] <mistrynitesh> mhall: ok
[18:05] <mhall119> mistrynitesh: did you select Server Type: Pop3 in Evolution?
[18:05] <SingAlong> wow... had never heard of the <blink> tag before. sadly IE doesnt support it
[18:06] <topdawg> followinf instructions i think it is  suppose to stay  connected I enter bill@ubuntu:~$ telnet mail.rapidcashllc.com 25  it  says: Trying <IP_ADDRESS>...  then: Connected to mail.rapidcashllc.com.  Escape character is '^]'.   then: Connection closed by foreign host. am i missing  something?
[18:06] <mhall119> that's because <blink> is evil
[18:06] <mhall119> and not actually HTML
[18:06] <SingAlong> it is html
[18:06] <_VIM_> !ot | SingAlong
[18:06] <mhall119> I don't think so
[18:06] <SingAlong> oh sorry wrong channel
[18:07] <topdawg> working  with postfix and dovecot
[18:07] <SingAlong> I didnt notice the tab
[18:07] <mistrynitesh> mhall: typed as you said... no action
[18:07] <mhall119> it was a netscape-ism, used in their source browser I think
[18:07]  * SingAlong apologizes
[18:07] <mhall119> mistrynitesh: what was the output after you typed them?
 was good at pointing out things I need to work on
[18:07] <IdentifyTarget> how do I find out what version of ubuntu I'm running?
[18:07] <Nizzmo> join #happy-security
[18:07] <_VIM_> Nizzmo: i'd rather not
[18:07] <mistrynitesh> mhall: and I did select "pop" in evolution (no POP3 in the list)
[18:07] <_VIM_> ;)
[18:07] <mhall119> IdentifyTarget: lsb_release -a
[18:08] <mistrynitesh> mhall: no output :(
[18:08] <mhall119> mistrynitesh: what did you select for encryption and authentication options in evolution?
[18:08] <MrMentalRay> could someone tell me how in hells name I can get Java plugin support for Firefox in 8.10 64-bit?
[18:08] <vosque> I have an ubuntu server install that bailed part of the way through.  Where can I find a list of default packages included with ubuntu server?
[18:08] <mhall119> MrMentalRay: you can't, no 64-bit java plugin
[18:08] <IdentifyTarget> ty
[18:08] <mhall119> unless IcedTea has one, but last I heard there wasn't anything
[18:08] <sipior> MrMentalRay: you can grab a 64-bit plugin from Sun's website
[18:09] <MrMentalRay> but Can I install a layer thing to execute a 32 bits firefox browser
[18:09] <mhall119> sipior: no way, they have a 64 bit plugin now?
[18:09] <IdentifyTarget> Ubuntu confuses me on installing programs. There are so many ways. apt-get, Synaptic Pkg Manager, and Applications -> Add/Remove. What's the 'best' way to install new programs?
[18:09] <MrMentalRay> it doesn't work on applets!
[18:09] <juaco> for *local* rsync (mirror two local dirs), is plain rsync better than fire a rsync daemon and do connect to it over <IP_ADDRESS>??? wouldn't the latter take advantage of partial file copying and/or other advanced rsync algorithms?
[18:09] <MrMentalRay> the one frome Sun
[18:09] <mhall119> MrMentalRay: you can install 32-bit firefox, and that can use any 32-bit plugins
[18:09] <mistrynitesh> mhall: ssl for encryption and password for authentication
[18:09] <mhall119> IdentifyTarget: they all use the same mechanism, actually, just different interfaces
[18:10] <IdentifyTarget> hm ok
[18:10] <sipior> MrMentalRay, mhall119, https://jdk6.dev.java.net/6uNea.html
[18:10] <mhall119> mistrynitesh: have you tried it without SSL?
[18:10] <MrMentalRay> I need to pay some bills, and my bank uses an applet, that won't work with the Sun 64bit plugin
[18:10] <mistrynitesh> mhall: nope... let me try
[18:10] <IdentifyTarget> I'm trying to install LIRC (llinux infrared control) on Ubuntu 8.10 and some methods work some don't
[18:10] <MrMentalRay> thank's I'll check that out
[18:10] <IdentifyTarget> I'm making a log of what I'm doing to get it to work
[18:10] <mistrynitesh> mhall: tried that now... no luck
[18:11] <superkiwi> Hmm, i have an apple airport that has a network printer/scanner attached. I have installed the printer, and can use it with programs like openoffice.org writer. But the printer is also a scanner, but xsane or openoffice.org writer does not find the device. How do I install it as a printer aswell?
[18:11] <mhall119> mistrynitesh: same error?
[18:11] <mistrynitesh> mhall: yes
[18:11] <superkiwi> *scanner aswell
[18:11] <mhall119> huh
[18:12] <mhall119> I'm about out of things to try then
[18:12] <DarkKnight> hey i am trying to install ubuntu..but when i do that i get a message that there are some logical errors...
[18:12] <samphippen> if I want to download (but not install) a series of packages that are in the repositories to a specific directory, so that I can perform offline installs of them on other machines, what do I do?
[18:12] <mhall119> mistrynitesh: it's never asking you to enter a password when you run send/recieve?
[18:12] <vosque> superkiwi: usually requires software that handle scanning to be running on the airport
[18:12] <mistrynitesh> mhall: never
[18:12] <unop> juaco, i should think both approaches have the same end result .. but i am not sure.  there is #rsync where you can ask the experts.
[18:12] <mhall119> very strange
[18:13] <batfastad> Hi guys. How can I specify multiple IP addresses in hosts.allow? Just separate with a space?
[18:13] <Dr_Willis> samphippen:  the repos are also ftp servers. you could explore them and find the packages and just download them.
[18:13] <superkiwi> vosque: I don't understand, isn't scanning and printer mostly the same?
[18:13] <mistrynitesh> mhall: i will contact ask sys admin tomorrow
[18:13] <samphippen> Dr_Willis, that won't get the dependancies though
[18:13] <superkiwi> *printing
[18:13] <ali__> hello
[18:13] <samphippen> Dr_Willis, I'll need the dependancies as well
[18:13] <vosque> superkiwi: no.  very no.
[18:13] <juaco> unop, thanks, heading onto that chan
[18:14] <Dr_Willis> samphippen:  yep. thats the propblem. check out  apt-on-cd then. or whatever its called
[18:14] <ali__> i installed ubuntu and i want to boot vista agian
[18:14] <ali__> any1 got any idea how to do
[18:14] <DarkKnight> hey i am trying to install ubuntu..but when i do that i get a message that there are some logical errors...so i am unable to install ubuntu....
[18:14] <|VktrSalles|> Hey guys
[18:14] <m4rk> hi! where can I get a fresh sources.list for my xubuntu 7.10 install please?
[18:14] <|VktrSalles|> =D
[18:14] <ali__> i installed ubuntu and i want to boot vista agian
[18:14] <mhall119> DarkKnight: installing from a CD?
[18:14] <ali__> i installed ubuntu and i want to boot vista agian how to do that
[18:14] <vosque> superkiwi: I ran into the same problem and I traded out my printer running on my airport for my printer running on another ubuntu box with the proper software running on it.
[18:14] <ali__> i installed ubuntu and i want to boot vista agian how to do that??
[18:14] <Carpe|Diem> lol ali__ , you're spamming xD
[18:14] <DarkKnight> mhall119; yes
[18:14] <mistrynitesh> mhall: thanks a lot and good night
[18:14] <_VIM_> !repeat | ali__
[18:14] <pibe86> hello i have installed xine but i  can listen to this http://caracol.com.co/player.aspx?id=zfE%2bcCh18sDLAvECZP%2fT2w1%2bxWHzvU%2bicq%2b8i%2b8VvhU3SiBtPbVci0PKsJNzkSgFzecdNFEmRjTQb8g2QGlT3Q%2b%2bheSatsfz why?
[18:15] <mhall119> ali__: did you install Ubuntu on a separate partition?
[18:15] <Dr_Willis> ali__:  i got a nice GRUB boot menu here... works fine...
[18:15] <mhall119> DarkKnight: try the "Check CD for errors" option when you first boot from it
[18:15] <superkiwi> vosque: I see. That sux (pardon).
[18:16] <|VktrSalles|> i have problems with rar files ¬¬' asking me passwords, but don't exist one ¬¬'
[18:16] <DarkKnight> mhall119; i used this cd to install for several systems...and i have several other cd's as well...but i get the same thing when i try with the other cd's as well
[18:16] <mhall119> ali__: when you installed Ubuntu, at one point it asked you how much space on your hard drive you wanted to give it, and it should have shown you how much Vista was using.  I hope you split the space between Vista and Ubuntu, instead of telling Ubuntu to use the whole disk
[18:16] <ax> how do i figure out which version of ubuntu i have installed?
[18:16] <batfastad> Hey everyone. How can I specify multiple IP addresses in hosts.allow? Just separate with a space?
[18:17] <unop> batfastad,  man 5 hosts.allow
[18:17] <mhall119> DarkKnight: maybe you have a bad CD drive on that computer?  or some other hardware issues (HDD, memory, etc)?
[18:17] <mhall119> ax: lsb_release -a
[18:17] <ax> mhall119: thanks :)
[18:17] <|VktrSalles|> can anyone helps me with rar files?
[18:17] <mj8741> ax its cat /etc/issue
[18:17] <batfastad> unop: thanks!
[18:17] <Carpe|Diem> come one ali__ , tell us:D i wanna know if you formatted your vista partition xD
[18:18] <DarkKnight> mhall119; any other way of getting it installed
[18:18] <mistrynitesh> mhall: success!
[18:18] <mhall119> |VktrSalles|: using file-roller?
[18:18] <msix> hey everyone. I just installed 8.10 via the "FromLinux" method, and after installation when i check the grub config i can't find a stanza for my new installation, i didn't tick the box to skip this. then i thought, lets just edit grub by hand... but i can't find anything vmlinuz-like... any clues where to go now ?
[18:18] <mhall119> mistrynitesh: woo hoo! what made it work?
[18:18] <mhall119> DarkKnight: USB drive
[18:18] <Andry_Sleeps> arvind_khadri: unfortunately the tutorial you give me the link tells me something i cant do
[18:18] <mistrynitesh> mhall: it was just that I was trying wrong port.... I was using the one mentioned in the manual
[18:18] <mhall119> DarkKnight: network boot, if you are feeling adventurous
[18:18] <rvn> i need a program that can draw images on the x desktop, overlaying any windows and apps that are open
[18:18] <AJC_Z0> batfastad: See also hosts_access(1). There are two different syntaxes you can use in hosts.allow with this one being the more flexible
[18:18] <AJC_Z0> What's the correct way to set a user defined search path in /etc/resolv.conf?
[18:18] <DarkKnight> shalll119;i dont have the installation files...how do i get it??
[18:18] <mistrynitesh> mhall: it started when i put 110
[18:19] <mhall119> ah
[18:19] <AJC_Z0> How do I add an app to the list in the pop-up window when I insert removable media (CD, DVD, etc.)?
[18:19] <mhall119> DarkKnight: hmmmm, not sure, google for Ubuntu USB install
[18:19] <mistrynitesh> mhall: thanks a lot once again and good night
[18:19] <rvn> i need a program that can draw images on the x desktop, overlaying any windows and apps that are open
[18:20] <Andry_Sleeps> arvind_khadri: I lost grub without never having windows on that machine
[18:20] <msix> rvn : a screensaver ?
[18:20] <mj8741> VktrSalles you need to install unrar
[18:20] <Carpe|Diem> Does anyone know, What does Owner: 1000 mean?
[18:20] <rvn> msix: i still need to be able to see the desktop and interact with windows
[18:20] <SIM_EU> hi
[18:20] <mhall119> no misty
[18:20] <mhall119> Carpe|Diem: on a file?
[18:20] <rvn> msix: i perhaps should have said non-fullscreen images, or partially-transparent click-through images
[18:21] <|VktrSalles|> mj8741: i have unrar =D
[18:21] <Carpe|Diem> mhall119: no, I copied my home directory with the command you talked about (cp -ra). And now my copied home directory has ownership: 1000
[18:21] <Carpe|Diem> :]
[18:21] <mhall119> Carpe|Diem: if you're looking at file properties, it means that the file/folder is owned by the user with UID 1000
[18:21] <msix> rvn: ah.. thats why i wondered, don't think i can help u there though
[18:22] <Carpe|Diem> mhall119: yes, but im on a livecd...hmm
[18:22] <mhall119> Carpe|Diem: usually that means that the instance you are running doesn't have a user with UID=1000, but the file/folder was created on an instance that did
[18:22] <mj8741> if you type unrar e (package) what happens
[18:22] <Carpe|Diem> I see
[18:23] <Carpe|Diem> ok mhall119 , im just gonna edit fstab now, and reboot...I hope its gonna work;)
[18:23] <mhall119> no big deal through, especially running from a LiveCD
[18:23] <|VktrSalles|> begin the unrar process, after 3 minutes ask me a pass
[18:23] <msix> i just installed intrepid. anyone know a reason why it wouldn't install a kernel or how i can fix it from the live-cd ?
[18:23] <Izinucs> I have one imap account in Evolution for Gmail but when I look in ~/.evolution/mail/imap there are 4 listed.. do I need all 4?  1= @imap.gmail.com 2=@imap.gmail.com:993 3= @map.gmail.com:995 and 4= @pop.gmail.com:995.. this last one might be because I have gmail setup on pop access as well. I don't typically have the imap access activated..
[18:24] <mj8741> so it's password protected - what happens when you enter the password
[18:24] <mhall119> |VktrSalles|: how big is the rar file?  3 minutes is a long time
[18:24] <|VktrSalles|> these archives dont have password
[18:24] <MrMentalRay> not even the beta version did it..
[18:25] <|VktrSalles|> mhall119: Is 21 archives with 114mb each
[18:25] <Mip5> md0 not found - but that's where the system is installed. Any idea how to get it back online?
[18:25] <|VktrSalles|> i can unrar it in slackware without problems, but my laptop isn't here ... i need these dvd now =\

[18:30]  * lascar sigh
[18:31] <Ucof> Hi everyone!
[18:31] <darthanubis> what does one change the "nv" to again? It used to be "nvidia" but I think it was changed in ubuntu to "nvidia-glx" ?
[18:31] <darthanubis> !nvidia
[18:31] <Dr_Willis> darthanubis:  its still 'nvidia' as fr as i know.
 : try here http://www.imap.org/resources/discuss.html
[18:32] <panesar_sandeep> :D
[18:32] <Dr_Willis> darthanubis:  the nvidia package name is  'nvidia-glx' but the driver name in xorg.conf is still 'nvidia'
[18:33] <darthanubis> Dr_Willis, it did change, thats why I asked, but if its back then good...however
[18:33] <darthanubis> jockey keeps claiming to have activated the driver 180.11 and says it is in use, but it is not
[18:33] <darthanubis> I was using the propietary driver from Nvidia for the 180 opengl3 driver , but I see ubuntu has caught up with the 180.11 package
[18:33] <Ucof> Im having a bit of a problem booting if someone can help me out please. I used to be able to boot into Ubuntu, but for some reason I cant anymore, it just stops on the Loading splash screen. Im at a loss where to start troubleshooting. Im in front of the machine right now.
[18:33] <darthanubis> I succesfully uninstalled the old driver with nvidia-uninstall, but nvidia-xconfig does not give me a working xorg.conf?
[18:33] <jhg> hey, when i insert a cd (audio or data) into my system ubuntu doesn't detect it, while it are valid cd-roms. ubuntu seems to lag a little bit after inserting it but is then unable to read it. it still worked a couple of days ago. any idea?
[18:34] <Dr_Willis> darthanubis:   I dont recall ever seeing the "Driver"name in xorg  change from 'nvidia' to nvidia-glx'        The package name perhaps.
[18:34] <Stooney> Jack_Sparrow, you free fora min?
[18:34] <mhall119> Ucof: remove the "quiet splash" from the GRUB entry
[18:34] <Ucof> ok, will try that now - on the latest (2.6.27-9) build
[18:34] <Ab3L> hi. i have a problem with compiz-fusion. the borders of the windows are not shown anymore. how can i reactivate them?
[18:35] <Ucof> Do I want to chose uuid, kernel or initrd?
[18:35] <mhall119> Ab3L: alt+f2 to get the run dialog, then "compiz --replace"
[18:35] <Stooney> I installed a fresh copy of Ubuntu 8.10.  When I log in it is hanging on the peach-ish color screen where all I have is the mouse (which moves).  Is there a standard fix for this?
[18:35] <Ab3L> mhall119: and after that, how can i return to this interface?
[18:36] <Ab3L> mhall119: alt+what? (sorry, i never found it)
[18:36] <mhall119> Ab3L: all that will do is re-start compiz for you
[18:36] <mhall119> alt+F2
[18:36] <shepherd> Anyone know where I can find source for easycam ?
[18:36] <mhall119> should bring up a run dialog
[18:37] <Ucof> well, the kernel one is the only one that seems to have "quiet splash" on it, so I'll go for that one
[18:37] <Carpe|Diem> mhall119: :D It works:D I've succesfully copied my home partition. Thank you for your help :D
[18:37] <Ucof> Do I want to remove the "ro" too?
[18:37] <Carpe|Diem> Flannel: thank you for helping me earlier today;) It works :)
[18:37] <Ab3L> mhall119: nothing happens with alt+f2
[18:38] <Carpe|Diem> mhall119: :D It works:D I've succesfully copied my home partition. Thank you for your help :D
[18:38] <mhall119> woot Carpe|Diem
[18:38] <Carpe|Diem> :DDD
[18:39] <Ab3L> mhall119: nothing happens with alt+f2. the windows remain without the borders.
[18:39] <Ucof> Am booting up without "quiet splash" now
[18:39] <mhall119> Ab3L: try ctrl-alt-f2 to switch to another TTY, login, run "export DISPLAY=:0", then "compiz --replace &"
[18:39] <Guest61553> Does anyone know how to setup up ICS (Internet Connection Sharing) using Microsoft Windows XP SP3 dial-up as an internet gateway?  The client system is running Ubuntu 8.10
[18:39] <KenBW2> why should i be able to hobernate with kernel 2.6.27-7 but not 2.6.27-11?
[18:39] <slashzul> anyone know what the executable is for running the workspace switcher applet ?
[18:39] <Dr_Willis> !ics

[18:40] <quibbler> Ab3L: system-preferences-compiz config setting manager ...under effects make sure window decorations is checked
[18:40] <Lint01> That's not ehat he wants; he want Windows PC as gateway
[18:40] <mhall119> Ucof: copy down the last few messages, and run them through google to see what you get
[18:41] <Ucof> Im utterly stumped as to what to try, Ive got Ubuntu on my laptop (on it now) and it is running sweetly, its just my desktop that isnt working.
[18:41] <Ucof> Mhall- will try that now, it just looks like loads of hex though
[18:41] <Lint01> ab3l: Open your network connections, and chhose wizard
[18:41] <Carpe|Diem> I need to know one more thing, how can I quickly find out which devices have been mounted?
[18:41] <Ucof> and I cant see anything that 'looks' like an error message
[18:41] <mhall119> Ucof: you can try booting from a LiveCD, and running fsck on the hard drive
[18:41] <Ab3L> quibbler: it is checked. i checked it as first step.
[18:41] <Dr_Willis> carpediem:  mount commad :)
[18:42] <Ucof> I tried running fsck from the ubuntu recovery mode, is that not the same?
[18:42] <Ucof> The disc is upstairs anyway :)
[18:42] <Carpe|Diem> Dr_Willis: omg ty lol! I never tried mount without additional parameters xD
[18:42] <mhall119> recovery mode from the CD?
[18:42] <Ucof> no, just from the hard drive
[18:42] <Ucof> will grab the cd now.
[18:42] <mhall119> Ucof: try from the CD, I'm not sure how it works from the disk
[18:43] <PurpleFrog1> @Carpe|Diem:  Open a terminal window, run "cat /proc/mount" or just plain "mount"
[18:43] <benitron> I have a Toshiba r15 tablet PC and have set up the tablet stuff but when I rotate the screen there is lag and when I minimize a window it leaves a ghost image. Is there any way to fix this?

[18:55] <Dr_Willis> paul68:  you can manually edit the smb.conf file and disable that for specific shares i belive - check the samba-doc package for a book on the topic :)
[18:55] <whabo> ATI 340M radeon .. intergrated its a laptop running on an external monitor .. because the laptop's screen got busted. it worled with 1600x1200 resolution under pclinuxos

[18:56] <spideyman> ubuntu wont mount my ext hd gives error that the mount point contains directory separator ussually / how do i fix this?
[18:56] <tdn> BlackBeast, all of it is. Only server is not live cd.
[18:57] <Ab3L> mhall119: anyway, thank you very much.
[18:57] <Ab3L> bye
[18:57] <mhall119> no problem Ab3L, hope you get it working
[18:57] <Dr_Willis> spideyman:  try mounting it from the commandr line? what filesystem is the drive?
[18:57] <Ab3L> now it works. that's what is most important.
[18:58] <IdentifyTarget> if I see a package in synaptic package manager that I want to install manually it's 'sudo apt-get PKG_NAME'
[18:58] <IdentifyTarget> right?
 its ntfs cant mount in command line because the drive had a space in the name thats what led to this mess
[18:58] <Pici> IdentifyTarget: sudo apt-get install packagename
[18:58]  * Ab3L is thinking he can park here a little bit. he may learn something good.
[18:58] <Ucof> trying to boot with 3gb now,
[18:59] <IdentifyTarget> how can I list any packages available with the word 'lirc' in the name?
[18:59] <IdentifyTarget> isn't there an apt-get list or something?
[18:59] <Pici> IdentifyTarget: apt-cache search lirc
[18:59] <Pici> !apt | IdentifyTarget
[18:59] <IdentifyTarget> ty
[18:59] <Dr_Willis> spideyman:  yep. spaces in names is a thing to avoide
[19:00] <ardchoille> IdentifyTarget: apt-cache search -n lirc
[19:00] <IdentifyTarget> -n for name?
 I tried to change the mount point in nautilus now it wont mount at all
[19:00] <Dr_Willis> spideyman:  you CAN mount it from com%mand line if you want to -  you just make the directtroy/mount point whtever you want.
[19:00] <ardchoille> IdentifyTarget: -n = names only
[19:00] <IdentifyTarget> ty
[19:00] <klenz87> i have a file that is all .rar files and it need to be extracted into and iso osx does it automatically with unrarx will linux do the same and what program ssssshould i use
[19:00] <ardchoille> yw
[19:01] <topdawg> roadrock , how can i determine if that is the case?  and    what ports should i have open? and if that is the  case how do i fix it??
[19:01] <Dr_Willis> spideyman:  you are going about it the wrong way..    'sudo mkdir /media/extdrive'  'sudo ntfs-3g /dev/devicename /media/extdrive'
 you the man thanks
[19:02] <Dr_Willis> spideyman:  in windows change the drives volumename to somthing without spaces.. will save a lot of problems
 thats exactly what i wanted
[19:02] <Ucof> nope. crashed again.  Will try with 2gb of RAM now.
[19:02] <whabo> Drwillis : no i did not install that where can i find them? btw its an 340M ATI integrated graphics and my max screen resolution is: 1680x1050
[19:03] <Dr_Willis> !ati | whabo
[19:03] <mhall119> Ucof: do you have any other LiveCD you can try?

[19:04] <MindSpark> how do I install libavdevice52 ?
[19:04] <Ucof> nope, I know this one to work (well, unless it has died in the drawer)

[19:04] <MindSpark> i get libavdevice52: Depends: libdc1394-22 but it is not installable

[19:07] <kopf> anyone know what the problem is?
[19:07] <mhall119> what did you find, Ucof?
[19:07] <Silicium> hi there
[19:08] <Ucof> booted fine via livecd...    am now attempting a "normal" HD boot

[19:08] <slerder> Hey guys, Im going to get 4 gb of ram soon and wanted to know how much ram a 32 bit version of ubuntu 8.10 would see/be able to use? Thanks
[19:08] <mhall119> Ucof, was it ram?
[19:09] <Ucof> yeah... but that RAM works fine on XP64  :oS
[19:09] <Ucof> is it just Ubuntu being fussy?
[19:09] <mhall119> maybe you just never addressed the bar areas in XP64
[19:09] <kopf> mhall119: nah, nothing's blocked.. and it happens with everything (ssh, ftp, etc)
[19:09] <Ucof> sorry, bar errors?
[19:10] <mhall119> kopf: have you tried using a browser to get to google.com?
[19:10] <Ucof> bar areas*
[19:10] <mhall119> bad areas
[19:10] <Ucof> of the RAM?
[19:10] <mhall119> it's possible
[19:10] <kopf> mhall119: I don't have one installed. and I don't really see how that'd change anything
[19:10] <mhall119> kopf: would let us know if wget is the problem or not
[19:11] <mhall119> kopf, you familiar with the HTTP protocol?
[19:11] <Ucof> hmmm..  Im sure I have let Memtest86+ (v2.21 I think) test the ram overnight and it has been fine :o.
[19:11] <kopf> yes
[19:11] <Ucof> odd.
[19:11] <Ucof> I now have 144 updates to download... :D
[19:11] <mhall119> kopf: try telnetting to www.google.com port 80, and GETing /
[19:11] <kopf> yeah will do

[19:14] <karol> how to make kadu in ubuntu ?? [noob]
[19:14] <Ucof> Im only a n00b myself, but I'd suggest you get the 64bit version and install that
[19:14] <Ucof> @slerder
[19:14] <slerder> ucof so how much?
[19:15] <ardchoille> !pl
[19:15] <Ucof> no Idea, but if it is anything like XP or Vista, the 32bit versions can only use 3.5gb of it
[19:15] <Ucof> dont quote me on that though as I only came in here to ask questions myself :)
[19:17] <Favorit> hola
[19:17] <Ucof> bonjour
[19:17] <Favorit> that too :)
[19:17] <FarmCretin> shalom
[19:17] <Favorit> zdravstvujte :P

[19:18] <LogicFan> if i want to add KDE 4.22 to ubuntu without all the apps, is it just the kde-core pkg?  or just kde?

[19:19] <slerder> Hey guys, Im going to get 4 gb of ram soon and wanted to know how much ram a 32 bit version of ubuntu 8.10 would see/be able to use? Thanks
[19:19] <LogicFan> slerder, most of it
[19:19] <lovre> im running a kubuntu 8.10 live cd on a laptop, and its asking me for a login username/password, but i dont know what it is. is there any default root password i can login with?
[19:19] <^hashbang^> slerder: you might get 3.2GB
[19:19] <LogicFan> i bet you'll see something like 3.5 or 3.8gb reported
[19:19] <casimir> exit
[19:19] <ibuclaw> slerder: why so much ?
[19:20] <LogicFan> slerder, or just install 64bit ubuntu :)
[19:20] <slerder> hashbang thanks, if i install the 64 bit version could i install 32 bit apps on it?
[19:20] <slerder> logicfan, same question thanks
[19:20] <^hashbang^> slerder: yes
[19:20] <LogicFan> slerder, yes, but some apps require more workarounds than others
[19:20] <crazygir> what's the best way to access shares in windows active directory?
[19:20] <ibuclaw> slerder: yes, you can with 32bit libraries
[19:20] <^hashbang^> !smb | crazygir

[19:21] <^hashbang^> !vnc | FarmCretin
[19:21] <Ucof> VNC is badass. :)
[19:21] <FarmCretin> ^hashbang^:  how would VNC work?
[19:22] <FarmCretin> im using server edition; no display to use with VNC
[19:22] <whabo> how can i switch from XOrg to Xrandr because my log file of XOrg says that Xrandr output would be 1680x1050 > here is my log file thank you guys for everything http://pastebin.com/m5121401c
[19:22] <topdawg> where would the logfile be to that would   show connection errors for postfix or dovecot?
[19:22] <^hashbang^> FarmCretin: doh!... sorry... remotely montior a cli?  hmm,
[19:22] <slerder> ibuclaw logicfan hashbang thanks guys

[19:23] <Petengy> hi to all
[19:23] <dsdeiz> oh mehn, the save and quit option in firefox is gone.. should i just reinstall firefox?
[19:23] <^hashbang^> FarmCretin: what program are you running that is only "GTK" GTK = you need a gui to use
[19:23] <Petengy> someone knows hot to lauch trashapplet from shell ?
[19:24] <Petengy> lauch=launch
[19:24] <IdentifyTarget> how do I find what file represents a connected device, my IR remote receiver?

[19:25] <AJC_Z0> dsdeiz: You know how to use about:config?
[19:25] <dsdeiz> yeah
[19:25] <crazygir> thanks ubottu
[19:25] <dsdeiz> although i don't what keyword to search

[19:26] <[ifroog]> Hello i get this error "get_cam_image(): len != img->bufsize, just letting you know", Any ideas why?
[19:26] <lenswipe> ibuclaw: any ideas??
[19:27] <ibuclaw> lenswipe: ideally, you would increase the "Periods/Buffer" and decrease the "Frames/Period" in a linear sort of fashion, if your soundcard supports
[19:27] <Petengy> I have some problems with trash icon, to check what it's going on I need to launch trash applet from shell to see error messages... could someone tell me how "launch" trash applet from shell ?
[19:27] <shepherd> anyone know where to find sourcecode for easycam
[19:27] <lenswipe> ibuclaw: how an where???
[19:28] <ibuclaw> lenswipe: do you use JACK Control?
[19:28] <lenswipe> ibclaw: nope, but i guess i could :) i dont know much about jack
[19:28] <whabo> #radeon
[19:28] <lenswipe> ibuclaw: sudo apt-get jack control?
[19:28] <ibuclaw> lenswipe: sudo apt-get install qjackctl
[19:29] <lenswipe> ibuclaw: kk ty
[19:29] <Ucof> Does anyone know of a Linux version of Notepad++  ?  Im running it through WINE at the moment...
[19:29] <_VIM_> VIM!
[19:29] <Ucof> :P
[19:29] <topdawg> gedit  works well
[19:29] <_VIM_> j/k ;)
[19:29] <ibuclaw> _VIM_++
[19:29] <Ucof> Never liked it myself :D
[19:29] <topdawg> similar to  notepad
[19:30] <_VIM_> how bout bluefish?
[19:30] <AJC_Z0> NEdit for ever!
[19:30] <lenswipe> Ucof: gedit does nearly everything that notepad++ can do i think
[19:30] <LogicFan> Ucof, i like SciTE
[19:30] <ibuclaw> Geany
[19:30] <lenswipe> Ucof: infact i prefer gedit to notepad++ :)
[19:30] <lenswipe> Ucof: its nice and simple and it does syntax highlighting
[19:31] <Ucof> really?   I dont like Gedit really...         I suppose its just me not liking change.
[19:31] <ibuclaw> and gedit allows you to run shell scripts on the text you are editing
[19:31] <_VIM_> A change you can believe in!
[19:31] <Ucof> syntax highlighting is indeed awesome
[19:31] <ibuclaw> plus ... install gedit-plugins
[19:32] <ibuclaw> lenswipe: once installed, go into Applications -> Sound+Video -> JACK Control
[19:32] <lenswipe> ibuclaw: ok so i got jack control installed and when i ran it from terminal it opened but i got a message saying "Warning: no locale found: /usr/share/locale/qjackctl_en_GB.qm"
[19:32] <ibuclaw> locale is a Language, should be no issue with that
[19:32] <klenz87> can anyone help me with my login screen it seems to have a resolution that is to high?
[19:32] <FarmCretin> ^hashbang^:  ophcrack is the program. i just found an old thread about a flag for no GUI when compiling. i guess i wont use the repos
[19:33] <burkmat> Attempting to boot Ubuntu from USB to a netbook... and I'm getting some shiny flickering letters floating by now and then - Should I be panicking?
[19:33] <ibuclaw> lenswipe: I get the exact same thing :D
[19:33] <C-S-B> burkmat, try safe mode?
[19:33] <lenswipe> ibuclaw: ok, btw jack being a server if i set it up right could other machines connect to the jack server and hear the sound on it?
[19:33] <[ifroog]> !webcam
[19:33] <lenswipe> ibuclaw: just a matter of interest :)
[19:34] <burkmat> C-S-B, ...how exactly would I do that? I just get a grub menu with "Default" and "OEM"... Using the software recommended by ubottus !usb.
[19:34] <ibuclaw> lenswipe: that is a very good question. I have never tried that myself, so I'd have to look it up first though
[19:34] <tango07> anyone knows of a good application that helps to recover lost partitions?
[19:35] <lenswipe> ibuclaw: YAY it doesnt sound like crap now tyvm!! :D
[19:35] <whabo> how can i switch from XOrg to Xrandr because my log file of XOrg says that Xrandr output would be 1680x1050 > here is my log file thank you guys for everything http://pastebin.com/m5121401c

[19:40] <zash> crazygir: cifs and smb is nearly the same
[19:41] <shepherd> anyone can direct me to the source of "easycam"
[19:42] <crazygir> zash: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MountWindowsSharesPermanently
[19:43] <crazygir> there are a number of comments regarding sbmfs before even starting
[19:43] <M1DLG> what is the correct way to add a second drive to my system? do i make it a certain mount point?
[19:43] <Jruiz> hola
[19:43] <crazygir> M1DLG: mount it whereevere you want

[19:44] <b18c1teg> Why does my media player close every time i try to play a movie file or use my visualizer? I'm using the standard Movie Player, Rythmbox, and Kaffiene.
[19:45] <M1DLG> ok - it doesn't require a special /something? I understood obviously incorrectly that there was only on / directory
[19:45] <crazygir> M1DLG: just create a directory in /mnt
[19:45] <crazygir> so /mnt/foo
[19:45] <crazygir> or whatever
[19:45] <M1DLG> sorry for the italics - something i dint intend
[19:45] <fiftyone> howdy all,  I have ubuntu installed on my eeepc  1000H I have had it for a few months and I have noticed a significant preformance loss. Also, for some reason when i restart my syste resources peg at 100% and my system is always running at 50 - 60 % even when nothing is in use. any idea what could be causing this?
[19:45] <M1DLG> ok
[19:45] <tangentcollision> how do I make a script start up when the server starts?
[19:45] <crazygir> then mount /dev/foo /mnt/foo
[19:46] <zash> sshfs ftw
[19:46] <kizza> when i run a game on ubuntu 8.10 it glithches in the cackground all this e=weird colours in the shape of the windows
[19:46] <M1DLG> ok so that automatically becomes disk2 as it's own root mount point
[19:48] <Stooney> I installed a fresh copy of Ubuntu 8.10.  When I log in it is hanging on the peach-ish color screen where all I have is the mouse (which moves).  Is there a standard fix for this?
[19:48] <j0nr> i am trying to open graphical programs on my LCDTV plugged into my server ed.
[19:48] <j0nr> where doo i start
[19:49] <Ucof> do you have an "X" for a pointer, or is it a proper arrow?
[19:49] <Ucof> @stooney
[19:49] <Stooney> arrow
[19:50] <Stooney> I enter username/pass, then it just seems to hang there.  I can move the mouse
[19:50] <Stooney> I've tried booting to recovery, making new account and trying that, but the same thing happens
[19:50] <Ucof> is there any hard drive light activity?
[19:50] <fiftyone> now i have nothing but xchat running and my system resources are pegged at 100% i don't get it. also alot of my programs become unstable and need to be force quit... any idea what is causing this?
[19:50] <Stooney> nope
[19:50] <Stooney> if it helps, I can boot with the live cd i installed with
[19:51] <Stooney> the live version boots i mean
[19:51] <crazygir> zash: anythoughts regarding cifs/smbfs?
[19:51] <Mip5> Hey Gang - anyone have experience with raid and mdadm? I'm having raid1 troubles - can't boot server, drops into initramfs busy box. Root is on md0, but I get a message on boot that /dev/md0 does not exist
[19:51] <zash> crazygir: i would use sshfs or nfs
[19:51] <Ucof> stooney - Im only a noob, but I think it might be a video driver related error.
[19:52] <Ucof> what gfx card do you have?
[19:52] <Stooney> some onboard dell crap :(
[19:53] <Stooney> is there a way to disable the splash after login?
[19:53] <Dandre> Hello,
[19:53] <IntuitiveNipple> Anyone know how to get sed to stop processing when it finds the first match?
[19:53] <Stooney> without logging in to do so?
[19:53] <Ucof> I think you need to change the drivers...     possibly to the ati ones,   im sure theres something on google...
[19:54] <Stooney> how would I go about actually changing the drivers? recovery mode?
[19:54] <Stooney> I'm a linux noob
[19:54] <fiftyone> if someone can help me., I installed ubuntu about a month or so ago and everything has been working wonderfuly until recently i have noticed a significant loss in preformance. my  system becomes unstable quickly. natalas crashes alot and my system resources sometimes peggs out for no apparent reason even loading a simple program like xchat pegs me oout at 100%
[19:54] <Dandre> Why when installing sun-java6-jre the JAVA_HOME is not defined?
[19:54] <arquebus> !restricted
[19:54] <Dandre> How can I correctly define it?
[19:54] <roadrock> topdawg: still here?
[19:54] <korogiannos> Hi. Can I use kernel 2.6.28 with intrepid? if so, how?
[19:55] <korogiannos> 2.6.28 or higher I mean
[19:55] <ActionParsnip> yo yo yo
[19:57] <arvernes> I have pbs with ubuntu and java_home. Is there a way to define java_home on a bash file. As I switch from 1.5 and 1.6 I can't set it up easily. I can find "java" using "which java", but after that, I need to strip the "/bin" part
[19:57] <chitt> Hi i come across this erro "Sorry, user chitt is not allowed to execute '/bin/su' as root on chittubuntu."
[19:57] <chitt> i only have one user
[19:57] <Pici> !sudo | use sudo, not su chitt
[19:57] <chitt> do you know how to overcome it
[19:57] <ActionParsnip> chitt: you dont use su, use sudo -i
[19:57] <Pici> korogiannos: You'd have to compile it yourself... incoming factoid.
[19:57] <Slash> Do any of you know how to backup copy protected games?
[19:57] <chitt> yeah it's sudo
[19:57] <Pici> !kernel | korogiannos
[19:57] <chitt> i know
[19:58] <Ucof> is there anyway to make a custom resolution available?
[19:58] <chitt> i've somehow managed to make a mess of the sudoers file
[19:58] <ActionParsnip> chitt: it doesnt work because you don't use sudo, as long as you are a member of the 'admin' group you can use sudo -i to get a root console
[19:58] <chitt> i cannot use root
[19:58] <korogiannos> Pici: Thankyou
[19:58] <ActionParsnip> !root | chitt
[19:58] <chitt> yeah i know ActionParsnip
[19:58] <chitt> But yeah but the chitt is the root user
[19:59] <ActionParsnip> chitt: is it a member of admin?
[19:59] <chitt> yeah
[19:59] <chitt> the only user is chitt
[19:59] <cappiz> or set the root password :P
[19:59] <ActionParsnip> chitt: being a member of admin does not make the user root, it means it can use sudo / gksudo to get the same access as root
[19:59] <fiftyone> if someone can help me., I installed ubuntu about a month or so ago and everything has been working wonderfuly until recently i have noticed a significant loss in preformance. my  system becomes unstable quickly. natalas crashes alot and my system resources sometimes peggs out for no apparent reason even loading a simple program like xchat pegs me out at 100%
[19:59] <chitt> please tell me how to do it
[19:59] <chitt> ActionParsnip
[20:00] <ActionParsnip> cappiz: its not in ubuntus way to use it
[20:00] <ActionParsnip> chitt: i refuse to, as it gains you nothing
[20:00] <chitt> how to i cannot upgrade to 8.10
[20:00] <chitt> because of that
[20:00] <ActionParsnip> !upgrade'
[20:00] <cappiz> ActionParsnip, by default it is not - thats correct :)
[20:00] <ActionParsnip> !upgrade
[20:00] <vigo> fiftyone: Do you have a backup from the working installation?
[20:01] <chitt> can i replace chitt (the root user)
[20:01] <fiftyone> i do yes
[20:01] <ActionParsnip> chitt: why do you think all the official documentation uses sudo/gksudo  root is not needed nor does it give you anything you dont already have, enabling the accuont also reduces system security
[20:01] <fiftyone> vigo i do have a recent backup i made yesterday also have one made a couple weeks back
[20:01] <ActionParsnip> chitt: you can make a new user and ad it to the admin group
[20:01] <ActionParsnip> !root
[20:02] <nanotube> !ubottu
[20:02] <vigo> fiftyone: Use that, it should be stable again, first try the restore thing, if no good, go to Hard Copy Backup, or Tape.
[20:03] <fiftyone> anyone know about usb headset and sound issues? my headset worked fine on another ubuntu machine now it only works like half the time
[20:04] <ActionParsnip> fiftyone: http://www.lockergnome.com/linux/2007/09/23/setting-the-default-sound-card-usb-headset/
[20:04] <fiftyone> also my regular headphone jack dosent seem to work eather
[20:04] <KenBW2> why should i be able to hibernate with kernel 2.6.27-7 but not 2.6.27-11?
[20:04] <M1DLG> ubotto? isn't that a gits character?
[20:04] <Scunizi> I have a wireless card and a wired connection on one machine.. what command at terminal will tell me which one is currently active for connection to the internet?
[20:04] <fiftyone> ActionParsnip, i actually have done that but it still seems not to work
[20:04] <vigo> fiftyone: A stable backup could resolve that, if it worked before a backup was made, it should work after a Restore Image has been used. Otherwise it is a hardware issue that needs to be looked at on the forums.
[20:05] <fiftyone> ok vigo thanks alot!
[20:05] <chitt> http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/fixsudo
[20:05] <chitt> this was helpful
[20:05] <chitt> thanks everybody
[20:06] <ActionParsnip> chitt: you dont have to do that
[20:06] <ActionParsnip> chitt: if you removed your last admin account, you can create a new one with root console, you dont have to mess with files like that
[20:06] <b18c1teg> :attn: why does my media player close evertime i try and open i file. im using the totem player. please help.

[20:07] <KenBW2> why should i be able to hibernate with kernel 2.6.27-7 but not 2.6.27-11?

[20:07] <fiftyone> ActionParsnip,  i put asoundconf set-default-card Headset and nothing happens. i still get sound from my  speakers and not the headset
[20:08] <ActionParsnip> fiftyone: is it called "headset when you list he available devices
[20:08] <fiftyone> ActionParsnip,  but if i do a test in the sound thing i get sound just fine in my headset

[20:14] <neonic> Does anyone know why my screen doesn't display anything when I do ctrl+alt+f2 or kill x manually?
[20:14] <neonic> Can't figure it out, and it's making me angry cause I can't install NVid drivers
[20:14] <fiftyone> ActionParsnip,  i love firefox but sometimes it just seems clunky i want something simple , stable and quick
[20:14] <hwilde> ActionParsnip, wow that recordmydesktop is rudimentary.  I just want to record one window not my entire 1900x1200 widescreen.  the video is HUGE
[20:14] <zash> fiftyone: links2
[20:14] <zash> :D
[20:14] <hwilde> fiftyone, epiphany
[20:14] <roadrock> topdawg: howdy, whats the problem again, disconnected from smtp server?
[20:14] <neonic> Or, I know there's a way, but I forgot the boot command to start at runlevel like 3 where it only goes to terminal?
[20:15] <derspankster> anyone know what nvidia restricted driver is available in 8.10?
[20:15] <adubz> im getting the same error msg libglib1.2 not satisfiable
[20:15] <hwilde> derspankster, there are a bunch.  aptitude search nvidia
[20:15] <fiftyone> ActionParsnip,  nice will ty them both, do you know much about fluxbox? I want to use it but i cant seem to get past the configuration lol i messed it up now all i get is a xterm prompt
[20:15] <b18c1teg> im trying to install the restricted extras package and failing miserably. can some one help? i get an invalid install error message.
[20:15] <swatTX> zash, when i try to play a video in xbmc or boxee it appears to be in fast forward with no sound. Any ideas?
[20:15] <commander__> how can i launcch firestarter on 9.04
[20:16] <topdawg> roadrock, we were  discussing the  disconnect  on telnet mail.rapidcashllc.com 25
[20:16] <ActionParsnip> fiftyone: strange, install fluxbox, log off, set session to fluxbox, log on
[20:16] <roadrock> topdawg: pm, off-topic for this channel.
[20:17] <topdawg> roadrock,  ok ty
[20:17] <ActionParsnip> fiftyone: i had that when my fluxbox went screwy cos I tried to make slim autologin for alaugh and i had to manually type 'fluxbox' in that prompt, keep it running and minimise it for all etenity
[20:17] <derspankster> htwilde, thanks but I'm still running Hardy.  Wondered if there was anything newer than 173.
[20:17] <ActionParsnip> fiftyone: i like it, i use kde apps but like fluxbox for lightness
[20:17] <hwilde> derspankster, 177 and 180
[20:18] <derspankster> hwilde, thanks again
[20:18] <ActionParsnip> derspankster: some cards dont work with the newer drivers, in this case newer != better
[20:18] <ActionParsnip> derspankster: try then and use the one which works best for your card
[20:18] <C-S-B> I'm moved to 180 nvidia driver, works fine here
[20:18] <b18c1teg> im trying to install the restricted extras package and failing miserably. can some one help? i get an invalid install error message.
[20:18] <C-S-B> still no luck getting hdmi audio though
[20:19] <derspankster> ActionParsnip, my 6600 in Hardy give me no DVI output after X starts.
[20:19] <zash> swatTX: try installing all gstreamer packages
[20:19]  * C-S-B loves it when xwindows configs fail and drops you to the shell. :/
[20:20] <zash> shell ftw
[20:20] <fiftyone> ActionParsnip,  i like the lightness too my machine can easily handle KDE or gnome but i love to keep my resources low,hink the minamalt managers are more stable
[20:20] <tom___> Hi. I'm using 8.10 and am trying to set up bluetooth such that devices can browse some of my directories. Is this possible?
[20:20] <C-S-B> yes
[20:20] <ActionParsnip> fiftyone: snap
[20:20] <tom___> (The device needn't be paired with me.)
[20:20] <C-S-B> its all plug and play tom1_
[20:21] <tom___> C-S-B: What devices can they browse? (I'd check, but i don't have a device. :\)
[20:21] <C-S-B> oh, wait there, you are talking the other way round...
[20:21] <fiftyone> ActionParsnip,  so, how can i restore my fluxbox settings to default?
[20:21] <tom___> C-S-B: want, say, my mobile phone, to be able to browse my files.
[20:21] <C-S-B> I can browse my phone, use my phone as a remote control and send files
[20:21] <C-S-B> the other way round I've not tried.
[20:21] <tom___> C-S-B: Yes. I know how to browse devices and send stuff
[20:22] <fiftyone> ActionParsnip, also, is there someplace i can find a pre-written config file, i find it easier to work down than up from nothing.
[20:22] <tom___> C-S-B: (Those are in the right-click menu of bluetooth-applet)
[20:22] <tom___> C-S-B: Hmm, ok.
[20:23] <fiftyone> !fluxbox
[20:23] <infomomo> Hey guys, what's the best way to add volume to a song (mp3) to make it louder
[20:23] <tom___> C-S-B: gnome-user-share looks like it could do this. Mmm. It has "Share Public files over Bluetooth" in its options (System -> Preferences -> Personal File Sharing)
[20:24] <monostone> how dangerous is it to execute a dist-upgrade via ssh? I've heard different comments on the subject
[20:24] <tom___> infomomo: Turn your volume up. :) (Or `sox` might be handy too.)
[20:24] <C-S-B> tom___, I'm not got my dongle on this machine, else I'd test it all out as well for you. :/
[20:25] <infomomo> tom___: i mean editing mp3 to make them louder
[20:25] <magnetron> infomomo→ try "mp3gain" or "normalize-audio"
[20:25] <FLo_> hello
[20:25] <WaY> hello
[20:25] <Britlion> Hey guys. Got a bit of a problem - anyone know why I could only put about 2.5GB onto a 3TB storage space? I'm baffled. I can't see any quota settings, and the DF says just 2% used...
[20:26] <tom___> infomomo: The "vol" filter in `sox` supposedly does that. Also, mp3gain might be worth a try.
[20:26] <Dirky> hello! :)
[20:26] <C-S-B> I would leave the mp3 as it is and just use louder speakers, the mp3 may not have the headroom to be gained.
[20:26] <WaY> sometimes when I write in amsn or xchat, lines doesn't actualize and appears twice. What should I do?
[20:26] <C-S-B> Britlion, what filesystem?
[20:26] <WaY> I don't know if it's because of nvidia propietary driver
[20:26] <Britlion> CSB: I'm 99% certain I formatted it with ext3.
[20:26] <mnd-> Hi, I'm having trouble configuring lirc.. currently my remote works partially as a keyboard though, is that a problem?
[20:27] <FLo_> Can someone please clearify for me:
[20:27] <FLo_> Do currently millions of Ubuntu 8.04 / 8.10 users experience, that FF crashes when watching youtube, or not?
[20:27] <mnd-> and how could I disable that?
[20:27] <C-S-B> I'm sure I read that ext3 can be a bit sketchy with loads of small fiels if you have that?
[20:27] <presshere_> WaY: are you using compiz visual settings?
[20:27] <tom___> C-S-B: I believe this tool works. gnome-user-share looks to be a really easy-to-use frontend to HTTP and files through Bluetooth. It creates the directory "~/Public/" and the if you tick "Share over Bluetooth" it'll share those files over bluetooth. Similarly for HTTP I guess.
[20:27] <WaY> yes presshere_
[20:27] <Rocking-W> would it be better to format to ext2?
[20:28] <Britlion> Hmm. Doesn't linux have those itself? like everything in /ver/log? I was trying to put video on there, so the bulk of the files are hundreds of megabytes in size. It gave me a disk full at about 2.5Gig.
[20:28] <C-S-B> tom___, cool, I might have to test this later.
[20:28] <fiftyone> anyone have any problems with a really jumpy mouse in ubuntu? my mouse jumps all over the place. i am on an eeepc 1000H
[20:28] <tom___> C-S-B: Pretty primitive. I'd rather be able to add directories, that way I don't have to screw around putting all sorts of files/directories into ~/Public/ . Ah well.
[20:28] <WaY> presshere_, but watching videos works fine
[20:28] <tom___> C-S-B: Thanks for the help.
[20:28] <ActionParsnip> fiftyone: not sure, its a weird one. what part of fluxbox do you want config for?
[20:28] <rrittenhouse> I'm trying to pair my blackberry pearl with my Ubuntu Ibex box and my blackberry is asking for a passcode. What do I enter? I don't see where to set the passcode on Ubuntu
[20:28] <presshere_> WaY: the prob is in compiz...
[20:28] <infomomo> tom___: cant find sox
[20:28] <Britlion> If I exaime a directory's properties, it does duly say 45MB of free disk space... terminal's DF tends to disagree.
[20:28] <infomomo> tom___: mp3gain is windows not ubuntu :(
[20:28] <presshere_> WaY: try to use minimal visual effects
[20:29] <WaY> ok, thanks a lot, because I need my screen composited because of AWN
[20:29] <FLo_> Can someone please clearify for me:
[20:29] <FLo_> Do currently millions of Ubuntu 8.04 / 8.10 users experience, that FF crashes when watching youtube, or not?
[20:30] <WaY> FLo_, thats not my case
[20:30] <ActionParsnip> FLo_: only if a plugin is incorrectly instaled
[20:30] <Rocking-W> ff does fine for me during youtube
[20:30] <nanotube> FLo_: not sure about millions... but it's been known to happen for some people on occasion.
[20:30] <nanotube> FLo_: for me personally it does fine, though...
[20:30] <fiftyone> ActionParsnip,  the main menu, now all i have is a link for xterm i can run xtem and thats it/.
[20:30] <FLo_> i tryed this http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=789578&page=113
[20:30] <FLo_> but the described howto does not solve the problem
[20:31] <FLo_> ActionParsnip: which ubuntu version can i use where i dont run into this problem?
[20:31] <WaY> changing to minimal visual effects have solutionated the problem presshere_, thanks a lot
[20:31] <ActionParsnip> fiftyone: type: fluxbox and hit enter
[20:31] <fiftyone> Anyone know, if you are downloading a large file from apt-get say KDE which is like 500 MB and you close your terminal if you run sudo apt-get install kde again will it resume where it left off?
[20:31] <ActionParsnip> FLo_: if you install any plugins wrongly in any Linux system, firefox will crash, so the answer is none
[20:32] <FLo_> nanotube: you are using 8.04?
[20:32] <presshere_> WaY: i`m glad ;)
[20:32] <commander__> can anyone answer my ?\
[20:32] <ActionParsnip> FLo_: are you using 32bit linux or 64bit linux?
[20:32] <FLo_> 32bit
[20:32] <hwilde> commander__, can you restate on one line please
[20:32] <f_newton> fiftyone, theoretically with yum it will as long as you dont reboot but I dont know about apt-get
[20:32] <FLo_> ActionParsnip: 32bit
[20:33] <Flyover> i dont know if this is the right place as iv just installed QUESTION iv got a d link dwl-g650+wireless card for my laptop i plug it in wate a lil wile and my hole laptop crashes

[20:33] <Pici> !jaunty | commander__
[20:33] <ActionParsnip> FLo_: sudo apt-get clean; sudo apt-get --reinstall install flashplugin-nonfree
[20:33] <f_newton> commander__, 9.04 is still in testing... good luck
[20:34] <Pici> fiftyone: If you exit the apt-get during the download proccess, it will resume, but all bets are off if you cancel during the install portion.
[20:34] <FLo_> ActionParsnip: ok, i read ybout the nonfree flash plugin. didn't work for me unfortunaely
[20:34] <shadeslayer> i think im in love with GNOME XD
[20:34] <commander__> so far it's str8
[20:34] <f_newton> gnome works
[20:34] <Pici> commander__: Please join #ubuntu+1 for Jaunty/9.04 support/discussion.
[20:34]  * shadeslayer watches as KDE slips out of his hands

[20:34] <ActionParsnip> FLo_: it works awesome in 32bit
[20:34] <Flyover> i dont know if this is the right place as iv just installed QUESTION iv got a d link dwl-g650+wireless card for my laptop i plug it in wate a lil wile and my hole laptop crashes build 8.10 COULD ANY1 HELP????
[20:34] <commander__> how do i get to tht?
[20:34] <f_newton> Pici, Its ubuntu+1 for stuff like that?
[20:34] <shadeslayer> !wifi | Flyover
[20:34] <ActionParsnip> FLo_: you can also download the 32bit .so file and put it in n~/.mozilla/plugins
[20:35] <Pici> f_newton: for Jaunty? Thats the purpose of that channel, so yes.
[20:35]  * shadeslayer has 64 bit
[20:35] <f_newton> thanks I didnt know that
[20:35] <shadeslayer> btw how stable is Jaunty as of now??
[20:35] <presshere_> Flyover: had you installed the drivers?
[20:36] <fiftyone> pici, awesome thanks alot.
[20:36] <magnetron> !jaunty | shadeslayer
[20:36] <fiftyone> ActionParsnip,  do you know where i can get a pre-configured fluxbox menu? i like to trim and work down rather than work up from scratch?
[20:36] <Scunizi> on a headless server how do I make it switch from ath0 connection to a eth0 connection?
[20:37] <hwilde> Scunizi, default route in /sbin/route
[20:38] <hwilde> !jaunty | commander__
[20:38] <Teddy___> Ubuntu has an old version of my package.  How can I make sure the newer (actually working) version is included in Jaunty?
[20:39] <Scunizi> hwilde: thanks.. however when I sudo nano /sbin/route I get the file but a lot of weird characters as well.. almost like a binary file.. could the wrong character set be set someplace?
[20:39] <hwilde> Scunizi, that is a command
[20:39] <ActionParsnip> FLo_: mkdir ~/.mozilla/plugins; http://fpdownload.macromedia.com/get/flashplayer/current/install_flash_player_10_linux.tar.gz; tar zxvf ./http://fpdownload.macromedia.com/get/flashplayer/current/install_flash_player_10_linux.tar.gz; cd install_flash_player_10_linux; cp ./libflashplayer.so ~/.mozilla/plugins
[20:39] <ActionParsnip> FLo_: fairly complete command for you there
[20:39] <hwilde> Scunizi,  just type in /sbin/route and you will see the routing table.  then type  "man route" and you will get the manual.  Basically you want to delete the default route from ath0 and add the default route to eth0  (if I understand your question right)
[20:40] <beautifulsnow> Anyone know how to check which driver my mouse should be using? (Its not working
[20:40] <ActionParsnip> FLo_: after its run you can delete the tar.gz and the install_flash_player_10linux folder
[20:40] <_VIM_> directory :P
[20:41] <ActionParsnip> same thing
[20:41] <_VIM_> ...
[20:41] <ActionParsnip> :P:P
[20:41] <Scunizi> hwilde: ok.. I'm looking at it now.. there are two routes labeled default one is ath0 and the other is etho.. could they both be connected at the same time?
[20:41] <ActionParsnip> _VIM_: technically on the disk its a file ;)
[20:41] <Flyover1> sorry about that internet crahed
[20:41] <Flyover1> i didnt install any drivers
[20:41] <cody_> Hi, how do I install ia32-lib?
[20:41] <_VIM_> bah, you got me ActionParsnip :P  nice one ;)
[20:41] <hwilde> Scunizi, ok so    /sbin/route del default gw ath0    <-- that would delete the default gateway attached to ath0
[20:41] <Scunizi> hwilde: eth0 I previously configured for static ip and ath0 when doing iwconfig shows it's dhcp
[20:41] <hwilde> Scunizi, careful if you are doing this remotely and ssh'd into the box
[20:42] <Milkeh> what's wrong with my banshee, as soon as I close it, it opens up again
[20:42] <Flyover1> it just crahes the laptop
[20:42] <Scunizi> hwilde: I am ssh'd into it
[20:42] <ActionParsnip> cody_: sudo apt-get install
[20:42] <ActionParsnip> _VIM_: its stil weird to me but makes sense
[20:42] <hwilde> Scunizi, careful man... you could destroy networking support and kick yourself out
[20:42] <Flyover1> can any1 help

[20:45] <ActionParsnip> Scunizi: ifconfig

[20:45] <ActionParsnip> cody_: apt-cache search ia32
[20:45] <hwilde> Scunizi, do an ifconfig.   look at tx and rx bytes on the interfaces.  hopefully only one is in use?
[20:45] <Milkeh> does anybody know why my banshee opens itself back up when I close it?
[20:45] <ActionParsnip> !jaunty | jeff__
[20:45] <jeff__> yes
[20:46] <presshere_> cody_: are you sure that there is corect section selected an repositories are set as default?(in synaptic)
[20:46] <cody_> there's some lsb stuff, a microcode.ctl, and refit

[20:48] <Scunizi> hwilde: ActionParsnip I was just going to say that wifi0 doesn't have an ip listed.. eth0 has more TX packets but less RX packets..
[20:48] <cody_> presshere_ : how do I know if my default debs are set up?
[20:48] <ActionParsnip> Milkeh: what if you kill the process?
[20:48] <cody_> In the first tab, all of them are selected...
[20:48] <ActionParsnip> Scunizi: then thats your man, you could even sudo ifdown wifi0
[20:48] <presshere_> cody_: in synaptic, settings -> repositories
[20:48] <Ape> Why doesn't my applications-menu sort the applications alphabetically anymore? I think it used to.

[20:49] <Milkeh> ActionParsnip, Weird it's getting mixed up with conky I think
[20:49] <Scunizi> ActionParsnip: cool.. thanks :)
[20:49] <cody_> presshere_: on the first page, all of them are checked. Do I need a third-party?
[20:49] <BattleStarJesus> I am having trouble running an application, synfigstudio.  when I attempt to run it the program exits with the message in this post http://paste.ubuntu.com/122563/

[20:49] <presshere_> cody_: no
[20:49] <Milkeh> ActionParsnip, when I kill it, it does the same thing but opens up conky, I added conky as an auto start program and wouldn't auto start
[20:50] <cody_> presshere_: Then I'm not really sure why this isn't working...
[20:50] <ActionParsnip> presshere_: good catch dude :)
[20:50] <Scunizi> ActionParsnip: seems trying to do that shows that it wifi0 is already down.. :-))
[20:50] <BattleStarJesus> Some kind of GtkSpinButton problem
[20:50] <ActionParsnip> Scunizi: then don't sweat it
[20:50] <Milkeh> ActionParsnip, oh wait it's managed to open back up and it's not in the process list
[20:50] <presshere_> cody_: those libs are installed by default, are you sure you need to install them?
[20:51] <shadeslayer> eh im leaving
[20:51] <shadeslayer> bye all
[20:51] <cody_> Even if they were installed, shouldn't they say that they're installed, as opposed to telling me that they don't exist?
[20:51] <Flyover1> could any1 point me in the way of Davis Vlasenko driver for my g650+ drivers

[20:51] <Milkeh> ActionParsnip, hold on a second I'll be back
[20:52] <ActionParsnip> Milkeh: rerun the ps command
[20:52] <cody_> presshere_: Even if they were installed, shouldn't they say that they're installed, as opposed to telling me that they don't exist?

[20:54] <koen_> i tryed evrything
[20:54] <Quontrex_Ashimi> is there something I can dpkg-reconfigure to make it redetect network cards?
[20:54] <koen_> but noting works
[20:54] <cody_> presshere_: Well. when I apt-get install the package, it says it couldnt find it, shouldn't it say that it's already installed?
[20:54] <adubz> this program i keep getting an error over and over libglib1.2 dependency needed when i try to install i have every instance of libglib1.2 installed?
[20:54] <Flyover1> Davis Vlasenko drivers could any1 point me to to the driver for DLINK g650+
[20:54] <ActionParsnip> Milkeh: i'd reboot so you have a fresh boot and investigate
[20:55] <ActionParsnip> Flyover1: the make / model is fairly useless info
[20:55] <ActionParsnip> Flyover1: is it usb or internal?
[20:55] <_VIM_> paul68: you can take a look at my sshd_config and copy it... http://paste.ubuntu.com/122567/
[20:55] <koen_> guiz?
[20:55] <Flyover1> dlink air plusG+ dwl-g650+
[20:55] <Flyover1> its a big card
[20:56] <koen_> do you guys know how to get your hotmail mail working in thunderbird/evolution i dont care under ubuntu
[20:56] <paul68> _VIM_: is that for the desktop ?
[20:56] <ActionParsnip> Flyover1: is it pci or usb?
[20:56] <presshere_> cody_: yes, it must say that they all installed
[20:56] <_VIM_> its the ssh server config paul68
[20:56] <paul68> _VIM_: ok
[20:56] <metajemo> hi, i am trying to install a few libraries but i dont know where to find them.for example libz. any idea how to figure where they are being kept?
[20:56] <cody_> presshere_: It doesn't, and that's why I'm asking
[20:57] <ActionParsnip> cody_: you need to enable restricted and 3rd party repo
[20:57] <_VIM_> paul68: after you replace it you need to do sudo /etc/init.d/sshd restart
[20:57] <Flyover1> its for a laptop that plus inside
[20:57] <tomsh> someone installed 8.10 with mdadm?
[20:57] <cody_> presshere_: Both are. Uni, multi, res, and 3rd party are all enabled
[20:57] <ActionParsnip> Flyover1: ok. run: lspci; lsusb
[20:57] <Scunizi> hwilde: not really essential.. it's a headless server that has a hard line and a functional wireless card.  When experimenting with remote X via ssh I didn't want to rely on the wireless connection and wanted to make sure that it wasn't working.. weird thing is when I do load the gui remotely the wireless comes alive and gets a DHCP address that is different from the static one I set on eth0.
[20:58] <Flyover1> PCMCIA
[20:58] <ActionParsnip> Flyover1: one line from the output you get from both commands will output an identifier for the card which will identify the chip in the device
[20:58] <tomsh> i can't install grub on mbr after installing on mdadm md device
[20:58] <Flyover1> when i plug the card in it crahes the laptop
[20:58] <ActionParsnip> Flyover1: the fact its a dlink is fairly useless info
[20:58] <hwilde> Scunizi, so you logged in over eth0, and then started the gui, which started ath0?   That means to me you are logged in via eth0.     If it's all good you cancle the reboot.  If not it reboots and you try again
[20:59] <ActionParsnip> Flyover1: does it crash if the card is plugged in the turn on the laptop
[20:59] <Milkeh> ActionParsnip, thanks I solved the problem
[20:59] <_VIM_> paul68: also is port 22 open? go to https://www.grc.com/x/ne.dll?bh0bkyd2 and run a scan , if it says "STEALTH" then you're going to have to open that port in the router, ubuntu doesn't block ports by default
[20:59] <Ape> Is it possible to set GOOM visualization size to even larger than "extra large"? With extra large it draws the graphic with 800x600 resolution (and then scales it for wanted resolution). It would be nice to get the graphic with the native resolution of my screen. I have power in my computer so that is not a problem.
[20:59] <paul68> _VIM_: just tested if I was able to ssh onto my server that is working only not working when pointing to my laptop
[20:59] <Flyover1> when i plug it in it crahes do a reboot it crahes on a black screen
[21:00] <ActionParsnip> Milkeh: sweet
[21:00] <Flyover1> iv read on hardware that i need the drivers
[21:00] <_VIM_> ok paul68 well if you can get physical access to the lappy i'd run a test at that Shields Up site as well
[21:00] <Flyover1> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/HardwareSupportComponentsWirelessNetworkCardsDlink#PCMCIA
[21:00] <ActionParsnip> Flyover1: then try booting with acpi turned off
[21:00] <ActionParsnip> !bootoptions | Flyover1
[21:01] <Quontrex_Ashimi> guys is there a way to detect my network device again?
[21:01] <NimaG`> ur
[21:01] <Flyover1> kk brb
[21:01] <danielfolsom> 	does anyone know if there's a way to use an external editor on a file from the terminal if you have to ssh into another computer/server in order to get that file?
[21:01] <Quontrex_Ashimi> something like dpkg-reconfigure networking or something?
[21:01] <hwilde> Quontrex_Ashimi, /etc/init.d/networking restart
[21:01] <Quontrex_Ashimi> its not finding eth0
[21:01] <hwilde> danielfolsom, nano is a command line text editor
[21:01] <[ifrog]> !came
[21:02] <Quontrex_Ashimi> hwilde I did that, did this install in another machine and transplanted the drive due to no usb support and no cdrom
[21:02] <metajemo> hi, i am trying to install a few libraries but i dont know where to find them.for example libz. any idea how to figure where they are being kept?
[21:02] <shadeslayer> hey is openoffice 3.0.1 available for ubuntu
[21:02] <hwilde> danielfolsom, otherwise you gotta ssh -X into the other machine to allow exporting the display of the gui text editor
[21:02] <Scunizi> hwilde: I follow some of your logic.. I don't know how to do a delayed reboot in background. But once the gui is up shouldn't I be able to shut wireless off either via the gui or terminal and have it auto connect on the hardline? also if I connect via ssh on the hardline and get the gui doesn't that mean that both are active at the same time? with the ssh session on hardline and the outbound internet connection on the gui only on wireless?
[21:02] <presshere_> Quontrex_Ashimi: ifconfig
[21:03] <_VIM_> danielfolsom: Emacs *gags* has a server built in i believe that would let you do that very thing.
[21:03] <Quontrex_Ashimi> presshere_: I get loopback but no eth0 in ifconfig
[21:03] <presshere_> Quontrex_Ashimi: eth0 up
[21:03] <shadeslayer> nm
[21:03] <hwilde> Scunizi,   man shutdown          basically you want option -r to reboot and then put a time like 120 I think it is in seconds
[21:03] <_VIM_> danielfolsom: get the emacs-snapshot though if you do plan to get it. It's beta, but it's a very stable beta, it's in the repos too
[21:04] <Quontrex_Ashimi> presshere_: Error while getting interface flags: no such device
[21:04] <Scunizi> hwilde: ok.. I'll look at that. thanks.. might have to try later tonight .. work calls.. :(
[21:04] <presshere_> Quontrex_Ashimi: this is the first time you use a this network adapter?
[21:05] <cosmodad> can anyone tell me why my 25 GB ext3 partition (according to cfdisk) shows up as 10 GB partition on `df -h' only?
[21:05] <Quontrex_Ashimi> presshere_: I installed this on another machine and transplanted the drive into my lappy
[21:05] <Quontrex_Ashimi> presshere_: so yes
[21:06] <monostone> how dangerous is it to execute a dist-upgrade via ssh? I want to upgrade my dedicated webserver, but i dont feel like paying the 100$+ per hour for my hosting provider to fix it if something messes up and I can't ssh anymore into my box
[21:06] <metajemo> hi, i am trying to install a few libraries but i dont know where to find them.for example libz. any idea how to figure where they are being kept?
[21:06] <normad> hey, how i need to change my resolution but for that i have to change the HorizSync and VertRefr but with 'sudo ddcprobe | grep monitorrange' nothing happens
[21:06] <guntbert> cosmodad: please pastebin the output of df -h and sudo fdisk -l
[21:06] <maxb> There's someone in #ubuntu-classroom who says he's banned from this channel, is there an op around who can decide whether to unban him?
[21:06] <maxb> !ops
[21:07] <^MadDog^> anywone have tried to compile xen 2.6.27 on 8.10 ?
[21:07] <Myrtti> maxb: please guide him to #ubuntu-ops
[21:07] <Seeker`> maxb: that is only for emergencies
[21:07] <Pici> maxb: Please have them ask in #ubuntu-ops and DONT use that trigger unless its an emergency.
[21:07] <maxb> Ah, sorry, I did not know of the existence of #ubuntu-ops
[21:07] <blodski> is it possible to get to the menu items with using keyboard only?
[21:07] <Quontrex_Ashimi> presshere_:any ideas?
[21:08] <Ape> Why doesn't my applications-menu sort the applications alphabetically anymore? I think it used to.
[21:08] <Mip5_> Hey Gang - I'm trying to rescue a system, and can't seem to get grub installed - system just hangs and cursor blinks in upper left hand corner
[21:08] <epqr> whats an emergency ?:P
[21:08] <epqr> like in irc
[21:08] <Seveas> Ape, it still does, they changed the alphabet :)
[21:08] <Myrtti> epqr: not that
[21:08] <Quontrex_Ashimi> when the blue smoke comes out
[21:08] <DrMax> I have a bluetooth related question: is there something special to do to enable powersave mode on the keyboard when unused?
[21:08] <epqr> lol
[21:08] <presshere_> Quontrex_Ashimi: i cant understan what have you done with your network adapter(eth0)
[21:08] <peque> hi??+
[21:08] <DrMax> Mip5_ : alt-f1
[21:08] <Seveas> Quontrex_Ashimi, no, the blue smoke isn't an emergency. Only green or worse :)
[21:08] <Ape> Seveas: Currently new applications will be always put on the end of the list
[21:09] <cosmodad> guntbert: here you go: http://paste.ubuntu.com/122574/
[21:09] <Mip5_> DrMax: Thanks - but I'm not even getting there. Grub never loads -
[21:09] <Seveas> Ape, odd. Does that ordering persist when logging out and back in?
[21:09] <presshere_> Quontrex_Ashimi: are you sure all connection are ok?
[21:09] <Mip5_> I've got a rescue CD in there now. I should be able to reinstall grub to (hd0,0)
[21:10] <Quontrex_Ashimi> presshere_: ok heres the rundown, I installed 8.10 on a p3 750 desktop with a realtec nic, removed the drive and placed it in my laptop (no usb support no cdrom) and need to redetect the stinkin intel adaptor in the laptop
[21:10] <Ape> Seveas: Yes, I noticed that about few weeks ago and it still puts my new applications to the end of the list today.
[21:10] <Quontrex_Ashimi> or install a driver or something
[21:10] <Mip5_> Is there a way to check if grub is installed correctly? I could continue to reboot, but this is a server, and it boots pretty slowly.
[21:10] <kkkduifjalsdd> is there an alternative for firefox?
[21:10] <^MadDog^> safari
[21:10] <Quontrex_Ashimi> opera?
[21:11] <Seveas> Ape, would you mind posting a screenshot?
[21:11] <guntbert> cosmodad: at first it looks strange, did you resize the partition?
[21:11] <Sw3RvE> why? firefox is awesome :)
[21:11] <cosmodad> guntbert: no I didn't.
[21:11] <_VIM_> Opera, but it's closed sourced
[21:11] <Seveas> kkkduifjalsdd, opera, konqueror, epiphany (to name a few)
[21:11] <^MadDog^> netscape communicator
[21:11] <Ape> Seveas: What would you do with a screenshot
[21:11] <^MadDog^> navigator
[21:11] <Seveas> Ape, trying to reproduce it :)
[21:11] <kkkduifjalsdd> thx
[21:11] <cosmodad> guntbert: I fsck'ed it to, but to no avail.
[21:11] <Quontrex_Ashimi> wine and IE :)
[21:11] <Ape> Seveas: It happens with all applications.
[21:11] <Quontrex_Ashimi> IE4lin
[21:12] <McAbsent> <.<
[21:12] <McAbsent> >.>
[21:12] <presshere_> Quontrex_Ashimi: had you installed latest auto drivers?(sudo apt-get update)
[21:12] <McAbsent> Hello?
[21:12] <guntbert> cosmodad: that was my next proposal...
[21:12] <presshere_> Quontrex_Ashimi: then restart
[21:12] <fontpeg> hi all
[21:12] <^MadDog^> lynx
[21:12] <Quontrex_Ashimi> presshere_: it doesnt see the network so I dont see where apt-get update will do a whole lot
[21:12] <McAbsent> I need help booting ubuntu in my pc
[21:13] <fontpeg> did you make a disk?
[21:13] <cosmodad> guntbert: if you know of any in-depth checking switch for fsck, let me know.
[21:13] <McAbsent> Yes,.
[21:13] <guntbert> cosmodad: do you remember the size of the file system reported by fsck?
[21:13] <trumee> guys, i am new to ubuntu. I tried to re-install asterisk by doing apt-get --reinstall install asterisk. The package gets installed by the files /etc/asterisk are not updated
[21:13] <McAbsent> But it freezes when i try to boot from it
[21:13] <fontpeg> did you go into your bios and change the boot order?
[21:13] <cosmodad> guntbert: what do you mean by remember?
[21:13] <McAbsent> Yup
[21:13] <trumee> how can i re-install a package in ubuntu.
[21:13] <epqr> there suddenly was a tar.gz package (it was a theme) that was mounted (like a HD) on my machine
[21:13] <Quontrex_Ashimi> trumee: sudo apt-get --purge asterisk then sudo apt-get install asterisk
[21:13] <keyton> which programs can handle all virtual image types, right now i need it for bin or cue images
[21:13] <epqr> thats wierd :S
[21:13] <McAbsent> I tryed to install it directly and nothing.
[21:14] <epqr> weird
[21:14] <PH_ZOM> trumee: in synaptic, there is a reinstall option
[21:14] <cosmodad> guntbert: you mean when I first installed it?
[21:14] <McAbsent> I tryed to boot like a live cd and nothing.
[21:14] <Quontrex_Ashimi> trumee make that sudo apt-get --purge remove asterisk
[21:14] <IcemanV9> trumee: sudo aptitude reinstall <package-name>
[21:14] <McAbsent> I tryed with linux mint too.
[21:14] <fdontcry> fala rapaziada!!!!!!!!!
[21:14] <guntbert> cosmodad: you cannot (=shouldn't) fsck a mounted file system, so you must do it from a live CD
[21:14] <McAbsent> But i get the same problem
[21:14] <trumee> Quontrex_Ashimi, i get E: Invalid operation asterisk
[21:15] <fontpeg> strange, anyway I am having a problem with my Atheros wireless card in my acer 5720z laptop; it shows the driver in the list but the network icon does not have any kind of wireless option at all
[21:15] <Quontrex_Ashimi> trumee: make that sudo apt-get --purge remove asterisk
[21:15] <trumee> Quontrex_Ashimi, ok read your new command
[21:15] <blodski> i'll repeat myself, is it possible to get to the menu items with using keyboard only?
[21:15] <suppressingfire> keyton: you want to unpack bin/cue files?
[21:15] <cosmodad> guntbert: oh sorry didn't catch you said fsck. No I don't remember, and yes I did the check on the umounted FS.
[21:15] <cosmodad> guntbert: want me to check again? This isn't the machine I'm writing from right now anyway.
[21:16] <ferdostar> blodski Alt+F1
[21:16] <fdontcry> helo!!
[21:16] <esteeven> hello #ubuntu
[21:16] <blodski> thx ferdostar
[21:16] <cosmodad> guntbert: I mean the affected machine isn't the one I'm chatting from right now.
[21:16] <guntbert> cosmodad: it might help, be sure to use fsck -f (to force the check)
[21:16] <Quontrex_Ashimi> presshere_: sudo apt-get update and then reboot no joy
[21:16] <rvn> i hooked up an hp deskjet 350 to my laptop running 8.10 64bit via a centronics->usb cable, and it detects that a  device is attached, "usb 4-1: new full speed USB device using uhci_hcd and address 3", but it does not see it as a printer, nor did trying to print (probably a stupid idea) to "usb:/" work
[21:17] <McAbsent> i tried several distros
[21:17] <fontpeg> so can anyone help, the wireless driver shows up in the driver list as installed but I can not select the wireless option form the network icon
[21:17] <McAbsent> ubuntu, mint, slax...

[21:18] <adubz> would i be able to install libglib1.2 even though latest is libglib2.0
[21:18] <adubz> i tried and it says conflicting package im assuming that is the conflict
[21:18] <McAbsent> trying to boot from the original ubuntu intrepid ibex cd
[21:18] <GuyFromHell> Is there a way to get apt to show fewer results on searching? >_>
[21:18] <adubz> and that it will not install i am trying to get ymessenger working though
[21:18] <adubz> and it is asking for libglib1.2
[21:18] <cosmodad> guntbert: rebooting now...
[21:18] <Kultom> GuyFromHell, , be more spesific in your search
[21:18] <rvn> GuyFromHell, pipe the command into |more or |less or |grep "something"
[21:18] <rvn> ?
[21:19] <GuyFromHell> Kultom, apt-cache search openoffice
[21:19] <McAbsent> in detailed mode, i see "cpu trhottling is 8
[21:19] <GuyFromHell> in my mind it doesn't get more specific...
[21:19] <rvn> GuyFromHell, apt-cache search openoffice | more
[21:19]  * fontpeg *sigh*
[21:19] <GuyFromHell> rvn, eww more. regardless that's not a solution that's a workaround :P
[21:19] <rvn> GuyFromHell, also , you want "openoffice.org"
[21:19] <guntbert> cosmodad: ok, say, when its up again
[21:19] <phlex> I see the latest git (<IP_ADDRESS>) isn't yet in any of Ubuntu's package repositories. Is there some alternative source for newer packages?
[21:19] <cosmodad> guntbert: yup.
[21:20] <GuyFromHell> *shrug*, just making sure i wasn't missing anything special like --less-eager-search or something like that
[21:20] <rvn> i hooked up an hp deskjet 350 to my laptop running 8.10 64bit via a centronics->usb cable, and it detects that a  device is attached, "usb 4-1: new full speed USB device using uhci_hcd and address 3", but it does not see it as a printer, nor did trying to print (probably a stupid idea) to "usb:/" work
[21:20] <rvn> GuyFromHell, i dunno args, check man apt-cache
[21:20] <Milkeh> I just installed vmware, why can't I find it?
[21:20] <keyton> suppressingfire: yes
[21:21] <Ape> Seveas: Is that enough for a screenshot? http://ape3000.com/hosted/video/menubug.html
[21:21] <presshere_> Milkeh: open terminal and write: vmware
[21:21] <keyton> suppressingfire: any script of nautilus maybe
[21:21] <GuyFromHell> anyways, that's a side issue, the real reason i ask is does anyone know of a dbus viewer that does not involve kde or qt? i don't feel like installing qtdev just for dbus...
[21:21] <keyton> suppressingfire: any script for  nautilus maybe
[21:21] <Milkeh> presshere_, command not found
[21:21] <GuyFromHell> (i can't find anything from searching for dbus :P)
[21:21] <fontpeg> I am having a problem with my Atheros wireless card in my acer 5720z laptop; it shows the driver in the list but the network icon does not have any kind of wireless option at all, can anyone help?
[21:21] <presshere_> Milkeh: which vmware
[21:21] <Milkeh> workstation 5.5.1
[21:21] <Kultom> Milkeh, installed with a .deb/from repository or from a .tgz?
[21:22] <Milkeh> Kultom, an rpm converted into a .deb
[21:22] <IcemanV9> Milkeh: presshere_ meant in the terminal, type "which vmware" (without quotes, of course)
[21:22] <presshere_> Milkeh: yes
[21:22] <skx> I am editing gnome menu with alacarte and it's a pain -- changes can take seconds to effect, I can't move more than one object and everytime I do focus is shifted to the folder where is was moved. Is there any better editor? Or is there a way to make alacarte behave more reasonable?
[21:22] <skx> btw how to edit places and system menus?
[21:23] <keyton> which programs can handle all virtual image types, right now i need it for bin or cue images
[21:23] <LinuxOS> to built a cluster: is it necessary for the master node to have the same processor as the slave nodes (e.g can the master be a P4 and the slave nodes AMD Athlon Dual core)?
[21:23] <McAbsent> i really need help, there is no way to make linux work on that laptop
[21:23] <Milkeh> IcemanV9, oh
[21:23] <Milkeh> presshere_, it entered into the terminal, but did nothing
[21:23] <presshere_> Milkeh: how had you installed vmware?
[21:23] <keyton> or just script for  nautilus
[21:23] <Milkeh> presshere_, I used a .deb file
[21:23] <Quontrex_Ashimi> ok how do I manually install a driver for an intel nic?
[21:23] <marquinos> Hi!
[21:23] <McAbsent> why ignore me?
[21:24] <peque> mcabsent
[21:24] <presshere_> Milkeh: are you sure installation was succesful?
[21:24] <marquinos> Exist some channel for OpenOffice translations?
[21:24] <peque> i am ignored too
[21:24] <peque> :)
[21:24] <Milkeh> presshere_, yes it even said the installation was complete
[21:24] <McAbsent> they should use mp instead
[21:24] <cosmodad> guntbert: I appended fsck output to pastebin: http://paste.ubuntu.com/122580/
[21:24] <presshere_> Milkeh: had you follow READMY instruction?
[21:24] <mamaro> I am trying to get my tv tuner working, ubuntu wants it located '/dev/dvb/adapter0/frontend0' but there is nothing there, I am able to see my tuner using lsusb -v
[21:25] <Milkeh> presshere_, I have no READMY instructions?
[21:25] <cosmodad> guntbert: hmm I guess this isn't the total block size
[21:25] <presshere_> Milkeh: you writed in terminal ./config then make?
[21:25] <marquinos> or how can I test the translations of Openoffice in ubuntu? :)
[21:25] <cosmodad> guntbert: that's all fsck gave me (apart from the progress bar) -- want me to restart fsck with some additional switch to make it more verbose?
[21:25] <McAbsent> i have a
