[12:01] <Rocket_37> interesting I didn't see any mention of the -t switch in the documentation I read
[12:01] <needinfo> kitche: I tried by name and number. Cant ping my ISP DNS.
[12:01] <Rocket_37> ok
[12:01] <Rocket_37> I'll tryi it
[12:01] <Rocket_37> try
[12:01] <DARKGuy> stefg: I see, but it's recommended that it uses NVAGP instead of AGPART or can I keep going like this?
[12:01] <mnoir> Rocket_37: if you type man mount in the terminal you will get full documentation on all the parameters
[12:01] <riotkittie> Rocket_37: which documentation did you read? its definitely in the manpages :P
[12:02] <Enverex> whitesuit, The sucky thing is that I didn't want to upgrade yet because I wanted to wait after all the quad core stuff is out and what's after that, but I bet my mobo is "just" out of warranty so I'll have to do something :(
[12:02] <stefg> DARKGuy: not sure what you mean... but if glxgears -printfps gets a reasonable result just leave it that way
[12:03] <Steve_Laptop> what is your 2 cents on having a /windows partition as a fat32 for backup only on a sever
[12:03] <DARKGuy> stefg: Okay, thanks for claryfing that up ^^
[12:04] <BenFP> is there a way to have webcam chats on ubuntu?
[12:04] <whitesuit> Enverex, :( well, if you werent having _any_ lock-ups with gentoo than it doesnt seem to be a hardware glitch, maybe it's the kernel with some bug related back to the hardware you're using..i wouldn't dump the hardware if another distribution works without problems on it
[12:04] <Rocket_37> still no luck mounting ntfs
[12:04] <Rocket_37> sudo mount -t ntfs /dev/sdb1 /mnt/data1
[12:04] <riotkittie> Rocket_37: are you getting some kind of error message?
[12:04] <Rocket_37> nope
[12:04] <Enverex> whitesuit, yeah but it only seems to have started dying lately (the NB fan keeps cutting out entirely)
[12:04] <TruthElixirX> adaptr: Confused. Can't locate install log.
[12:04] <riotkittie> and ls /mnt/data1 is empty ?
[12:05] <Rocket_37> right
[12:05] <DARKGuy> kitche: you were right, driver reinstall did it, thanks! :D
[12:05] <dredhammer> hello has anyone got xmame working in edgy? launching via terminal or from frontend results in a black screen that requires a gnome restart
[12:05] <riotkittie> err shows nothing, rather. hm.
[12:05] <Rocket_37> File Browser shows a red X
[12:06] <Rocket_37> on the data1 folder
[12:06] <adaptr> TruthElixirX: is hda1 mounted ?
[12:06] <DARKGuy> Now another problem... Umm, okay, I ran my 640x480 app, but I can't go back to 1024x768! :/ <control><alt>+ or - don't work, is there a way to restore resolution without restarting the X server? (I'm using IceWM, but there must be a terminal/command way right?)
[12:06] <Rocket_37> which contains nothing
[12:06] <riotkittie> Rocket_37: are you prefixing yer mount command with "sudo" ?
[12:06] <Rocket_37> yes
[12:06] <mnoir> Rocket_37: you know it is a good ntfs partition?
[12:06] <willytell> Wimpog, keep in mind you'll need be root in orden to take effect some commands.
[12:06] <BenFP> is there a way to have webcam chats on ubuntu like on gaim or something like that??
[12:06] <Dave-Ubuntu> Rocket_37:  is there data on the NTFS drive ?
[12:06] <mirak> how can I know wich module drives a pci card ?
[12:06] <adaptr> Rocket_37: you need ot fix the permissions on the partition
[12:07] <bruenig> !webcam
[12:07] <ubotu> webcam is now easy to install on Linux; instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Webcam Supported cams: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupportComponentsMultimediaWebCameras
[12:07] <Eroick> how do I get composite out to work in X on a ATI Rage card?
[12:07] <Jon12> flannel: the ubuntu pastbin wasn't working so here is another one: http://pastebin.com/859371
[12:07] <Rocket_37> it's my data drive
[12:07] <Rocket_37> it works fine
[12:07] <TruthElixirX> adaptr: Open up terminal, type mount, and it should tell me right? It doesn't say anything about hda1 id I do that
[12:07] <gandalfcome> Does anyone have experience with the opensource radeon drivers and an xXXX ati card? please help
[12:07] <Rocket_37> adaptr: permissions on the partition?
[12:07] <riotkittie> BenFP: gaim doesnt support cams. i think there are other apps taht do but i am not sure what they ar e
[12:07] <BenFP> thank you bruenig
[12:07] <DARKGuy> Nevermind I found it, xvidtune -next
[12:07] <adaptr> TruthElixirX: then it is not mounted; you 'll have to do that again: mkdir /media/hda1 (unless it exists), mount /dev/hda1 /media/hda1
[12:08] <BenFP> thank you riotkittie
[12:08] <sleepy742> what software do I need to watch youtube videos?
[12:08] <DARKGuy> sleepy742: Flash player
[12:08] <stefg> !flash9 | sleepy742
[12:08] <ubotu> sleepy742: flash9 is available from dapper-backports and edgy-backports now, see !backports
[12:08] <Gunslinger|Deags> ok adaptr i have downloaded xubuntu now how do i get ubuntu off ofthere just burn this image to a cd throw it in there and restart?
[12:08] <riotkittie> are the open source drivers better than the ATI released drivers?
[12:08] <adaptr> Gunslinger|Deags: that's the easiest way, yes
[12:08] <Gunslinger|Deags> ok ill try that first then
[12:08] <Gunslinger|Deags> let me burn this cd image
[12:08] <TruthElixirX> adaptr: okay. Mounted...
[12:08] <adaptr> Gunslinger|Deags: but xubuntu is no different than ubuntu on the inside
[12:09] <Rocket_37> how do I change permissions?
[12:09] <adaptr> TruthElixirX: okay, now you should be able to find /media/hda1/var/log/installer
[12:09] <Rocket_37> !permission
[12:09] <ubotu> The files and directories on an Ubuntu system are organized according to a standard, see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Filesystem_Hierarchy_Standard - file permissions are explained at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FilePermissions - All filenames and directory names (and many other things) are case sensitive in Linux
[12:09] <DARKGuy> Thanks for the help guys :)
[12:09] <J-_> !mozembed
[12:09] <Gunslinger|Deags> thats ok i just want to reinstall this and with the lighting of the minimal requirements it should run better right
[12:09] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about mozembed - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[12:09] <sleepy742> !backports
[12:09] <ubotu> If new updated Ubuntu packages are built for an application, then they go into Ubuntu Backports. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuBackports
[12:09] <TruthElixirX> adaptr: okay... really BIG n00b question.. how do I open a file manager....
[12:09] <adaptr> Gunslinger|Deags: not really.. it needs to run *at all*, first
[12:09] <adaptr> TruthElixirX: why would you need one
[12:09] <bruenig> TruthElixirX, places>home folder is one way
[12:10] <riotkittie> reinstalling seems silly.
[12:10] <bruenig> TruthElixirX, or you can open a terminal and run nautilus
[12:10] <Gunslinger|Deags> hmm then what do u suggest i do?
[12:10] <grndslm> anybody gotten ipw3945 to work with dapper???
[12:10] <TruthElixirX> adaptr: wouldn't I need to to view the log?
[12:10] <adaptr> Gunslinger|Deags: well, I would put in the normal Ubuntu LiveCD and when that has finished booting, look closely through all system logs for clues what happened that might cause problems after the installation
[12:10] <Jon12> rocket_37: this might also help you https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VolumePermissions?highlight=%28permissions%29
[12:10] <riotkittie> and from what i have seen, xubuntu - or the xfce implementation in dapper - does not really preform better than ubuntu - or the ubuntu implementation of gnome
[12:11] <Steve_Laptop> dumb ? what is your 2 cents on having a /windows partition as a fat32 for backup only on a sever
[12:11] <h3xis> grndslm, i did
[12:11] <Gunslinger|Deags> ok one second
[12:11] <adaptr> TruthElixirX: less /media/hda1/var/log/installer/syslog
[12:11] <grndslm> h3xis:  i actually meant edgy...but, how'd you do it?
[12:11] <adaptr> TruthElixirX: or run nautilus on the dirctory, indeed
[12:11] <TruthElixirX> adaptr: wow. Okay. That worked. What am I looking for?
[12:11] <h3xis> grndslm, what do you mean? it detected it by itself out of the box
[12:11] <adaptr> TruthElixirX: although nautilus - nasty
[12:12] <adaptr> TruthElixirX: grep for grub :)
[12:12] <mnoir> Steve_Laptop: for backing up win machines? - it's fine :)
[12:12] <stefg> Steve_Laptop: why would you want a file system which can't have files >4gb as backup partition?
[12:12] <Rocket_37> on a different note, is FAT32 the most widely compatible FS between Linux and Windows?
[12:12] <Gunslinger|Deags> it i inserted the cd
[12:12] <h3xis> Rocket_37, yes
[12:12] <Gunslinger|Deags> and its trying to boot
[12:12] <riotkittie> Rocket_37: yes
[12:12] <grndslm> h3xis:  not me...i can't get network-manager-gnome to display ANY wireless networks...when i click on it, it only gives me "Wired Network" as an option
[12:12] <adaptr> Rocket_37: it's prettyt much the *only* one....
[12:12] <h3xis> grndslm, have you done anything? is this a fresh install?
[12:12] <Rocket_37> man, if only people learned that sharing is a good thing...
[12:12] <mnoir> Rocket_37: fat32 FTW cuz you can write to it
[12:13] <grndslm> h3xis:  yea, fresh install
[12:13] <Rocket_37> FTW?
[12:13] <mnoir> for the win
[12:13] <Rocket_37> heh
[12:13] <Rocket_37> ok
[12:13] <grndslm> h3xis:  i have a feeling it's gonna do the same thing if i started over
[12:13] <h3xis> grndslm, what kind of comp
[12:13] <TruthElixirX> adaptr: I found some stuff. It says its already installed.
[12:13] <grndslm> h3xis:  Asus Z35F
[12:13] <Rocket_37> is there any way to set GAIM to pop up a tray notification when someone logs in?
[12:13] <subzero800> how to i cd to my desktop?
[12:13] <h3xis> Rocket_37, yes it's called buddy pounce
[12:13] <Rocket_37> ok
[12:13] <riotkittie> cd ~/Desktop
[12:14] <adaptr> TruthElixirX: yers.. that would be because the installer doesn't actually remove the MBR when you re-install :)
[12:14] <mnoir> subzero800: it is a folder in yer home dir
[12:14] <Steve_Laptop> stefg 4gb? I fave a 60g drive as a fat32, so what your saying is linux wont see it? sorry you lost me...
[12:14] <adaptr> TruthElixirX: so it did not install it this time, either... that may be what happened the last time
[12:14] <h3xis> grndslm, well... that's kind of weird to be honest :/ is it even being detected?
[12:14] <mnoir> Steve_Laptop: no worries - fat32 file size limit is 4 gb
[12:14] <daxxar> Rocket_37: Also, try http://gaim.guifications.org/trac/wiki/Guifications
[12:14] <grndslm> h3xis:  yup, it's detected, but the nm-applet doesn't work well with it or somethin'
[12:14] <Rocket_37> cool, thanks
[12:15] <mnoir> Steve_Laptop: sorry - overactive auto complete
[12:15] <Steve_Laptop> ic
[12:15] <Rocket_37> is there any way to do it globally, and not per-buddy?
[12:15] <sleepy742> what commands to type to get flash 9?
[12:15] <mnoir> i meant no
[12:15] <lg8> don't know
[12:15] <kitche> !flash9
[12:15] <Gunslinger|Deags> err this is so darn frustrating now the cd wont boot it for hung at setting up locales...
[12:15] <ubotu> flash9 is available from dapper-backports and edgy-backports now, see !backports
[12:15] <h3xis> grndslm, when i used it it worked fine. is it eth1?
[12:15] <adaptr> TruthElixirX: still, I would now try to run grub yourself manually again, and see what happens
[12:15] <Steve_Laptop> hay i do it tooo :)
[12:15] <Rocket_37> also, what's the keyboard shortcut for switching workspaces?
[12:15] <grndslm> h3xis:  i installed opensuse and it worked outta the box, but ubuntu is being a lil' problematic with this machine
[12:15] <kitche> sleepy742: you need to use backports to get flash9
[12:15] <tomasso_> why when i wanna run an executable file doing ./ I get:No such file or directory? permissions seem to be ok
[12:15] <grndslm> h3xis:  yea....what does your /etc/network/interfaces file look like?
[12:15] <Jon12> !backports
[12:15] <ubotu> If new updated Ubuntu packages are built for an application, then they go into Ubuntu Backports. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuBackports
[12:15] <TruthElixirX> adaptr: just "sudo -i" then "grub"?
[12:15] <Rocket_37> !workspace
[12:16] <adaptr> TruthElixirX: uh ? no.. just run sudo grub
[12:16] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about workspace - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[12:16] <stefg> Steve_Laptop: no... a *single* file on fat32 cant be bigger than 4 GB... fragmentation and the waste of space when running a partition bigger than 32 GB on fat32 are arguments to look for another solution
[12:16] <riotkittie> has flash 9 moved beyond the beta stage yet?
[12:16] <bruenig> sleepy742, wget http://3v1n0.tuxfamily.org/pool/edgy/3v1n0/flashplugin-nonfree_<IP_ADDRESS>-3v1ubuntu0_i386.deb && sudo dpkg -i flashplugin-nonfree_<IP_ADDRESS>-3v1ubuntu0_i386.deb
[12:16] <h3xis> grndslm, well im on windows atm so i cant check :/
[12:16] <Rocket_37> !shortcut
[12:16] <ubotu> Keyboard shortcuts can be set in System -> Preferences -> Keyboard Shortcuts (Gnome) or "Input Actions" in KControl (KDE). If your multimedia keys don't work with that, try keytouch - http://keytouch.sourceforge.net
[12:16] <TruthElixirX> adaptr: okay. Grub open.
[12:16] <h3xis> grndslm, try sudo iwlist eth1 scan
[12:16] <Gunslinger|Deags> adaptr ok well now whenb booting the live cd its hung at settings up locales
[12:16] <bruenig> riotkittie, it is in beta 2
[12:16] <adaptr> TruthElixirX: what did it say while starting ?
[12:17] <sleepy742> bruenig, will that work for kubuntu?
[12:17] <Rocket_37> never mind... found it
[12:17] <adaptr> Gunslinger|Deags: sounds suspicuously like a real hardware problem you have there
[12:17] <bruenig> sleepy742, yes
[12:17] <riotkittie> bruenig: ah :)
[12:17] <TruthElixirX> adaptr:     GNU GRUB  version 0.97  (640K lower / 3072K upper memory)
[12:17] <bruenig> sleepy742, if you get any errors, do sudo apt-get -f install
[12:17] <grndslm> h3xis:  eth1      Interface doesn't support scanning.
[12:17] <Gunslinger|Deags> adaptr the hardware all works fine cause i had windows me on it right before xmas
[12:17] <Rocket_37> ok, I'm still unsure about how to change permissions on this partition
[12:17] <Gunslinger|Deags> i have to go eat ill be back my parents are raging
[12:17] <h3xis> grndslm, could be an issue...
[12:17] <adaptr> TruthElixirX: yes, that's what you have above the screen *now*.. but when it starts it says " trying to detect BIOS drives... this may take a long time" - did you see that ?
[12:18] <mnoir> Gunslinger|Deags: linux can stress hardware in different ways.
[12:18] <h3xis> grndslm, try sudo dhclient eth1
[12:18] <adaptr> Gunslinger|Deags: you say ubuntu also worked fine until you opened it today, so that is a null argument
[12:18] <gandalfcome> Does anyone have experience with the opensource radeon drivers and an xXXX ati card? please help
[12:18] <Jon12> rocket_37: what are you trying to do?
[12:18] <Steve_Laptop> stefg, "O" ic then it looks like I will use samba I was just being lasy
[12:18] <grndslm> h3xis:  eth1: ERROR while getting interface flags: No such device
[12:18] <grndslm> eth1: ERROR while getting interface flags: No such device
[12:18] <grndslm> Bind socket to interface: No such device
[12:18] <grndslm> brb
[12:18] <tiolpxe> hi where is ubuntu's file that configures tcp services at bootup
[12:18] <Rocket_37> jon12: I'm attempting to mount an NTFS partition but when I do, the mount point remains empty
[12:19] <h3xis> grndslm, well, why did you switch to ubuntu if it worked in suse?
[12:19] <Rocket_37> my syntax seems correct
[12:19] <Enverex> Does anyone know why when I plug my USB device in when running VMWare that it doesn't seem to notice I've plugged anything in?
[12:19] <grndslm> i was just trying suse out to see how 10.2 looked, but ubuntu is my preferred OS
[12:19] <stefg> tiolpxe: /etc/network/interfaces
[12:19] <Rocket_37> adaptr said it has to do with permissions
[12:20] <grndslm> h3xis:  I'm gonna try to reinstall, and if that doesn't work...i'll have to go back to suse i guess
[12:20] <tomasso_> why when i wanna run an executable file doing ./ I get:No such file or directory? permissions seem to be ok
[12:20] <tiolpxe> stefg so it doesnt use inetd?
[12:20] <TruthElixirX> adaptr: yes
[12:20] <h3xis> grndslm, okay. really, if i knew what the problem was i'd help. i have a thinkpad and i installed edgy on it maybe 3 months ago and it just worked
[12:20] <Jon12> rocket_37: okay that's not something i'm familiar with sorry
[12:20] <sleepy742> bruen, right now I have just Konquerer for web, will i need to install flash again if i install firefox?
[12:20] <bruenig> tomasso, are you spelling the name of the file right
[12:21] <tomasso_> bruenig: yep
[12:21] <grndslm> h3xis:  well, thanks for the help...lata
[12:21] <bruenig> tomasso, does putting the whole path to the file work
[12:21] <Rocket_37> jon12: np
[12:21] <bruenig> sleepy742, can't be positive on that since I have never been in that position, but I would think probably not
[12:21] <adaptr> TruthElixirX: so what happens when you type "root (hd" and press TAB ?
[12:21] <tomasso_> im on the file's directory
[12:21] <fokuslee> Rocket_37:  whats ur command?
[12:21] <mnoir> tomasso_: './' is not anything that can execute   it is your current directory
[12:21] <bruenig> tomasso, does putting the whole path to the file work
[12:21] <TruthElixirX> adaptr: same thing "Error 21: Selected disk does not exist"
[12:21] <tomasso_> i do ./skype
[12:22] <tomasso_> le me chech
[12:22] <ubuntu__> heyu
[12:22] <stefg> tiolpxe: inetd is a *server* daemon, and no tinstalled by default. if you just want to mess with your IP settings from the cmmand line then /etc/network/interfaces is the file to edit (smartly, i might add)
[12:22] <adaptr> TruthElixirX: GRUB really doesn't like your disk, then; are you sure you ran grub with sudo ?
[12:22] <ubuntu__> i instaleed the new Ubuntu 7

[12:33] <bucketfan99> im always confused with that one. but now i know.
[12:34] <bucketfan99> thanks again bro
[12:34] <x_> Could someone help me out with getting my ati drivers installed properly?
[12:34] <webben> stefg, Perhaps I don't mean symlinks. I'm talking about when Nautilus puts a giant arrow over something, tells you it's pointing to something else, but offers no way to get to it.
[12:34] <webben> no /obvious/ way
[12:34] <webben> stefg, I don't quite see what's odd about following symlinks anyhow.
[12:34] <mnoir> tomasso_: i'm starin at it and i am not seeing the problem.
[12:34] <webben> stefg, I do it all the time with ls -al
[12:34] <stefg> webben: permission problems, or a dead link, pointing to nowhere
[12:35] <Eroick> How do I get AIGLX to work

[12:35] <[set] > Hey guys, If i installed ubuntu and then after windows on a seperate partition.. windows takes over the mbr thus grub won't boot.. right now im in ubuntu live cd.. anyone know how to set it up so ubuntu could take over the MBR?
[12:35] <mnoir> tomasso_: try this:  mv sk<tab> skype             -- the tab should autocomplete
[12:35] <bruenig> !grub | [set]
[12:35] <ubotu> [set] : grub is the default Ubuntu boot manager. Lost grub after installing windows: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows - Making GRUB floppies & other GRUB howtos: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto
[12:36] <tomasso_> mnoir: the autocomplete works :D
[12:36] <[set] > do i just reinstall grub or what?
[12:36] <TruthElixirX> adaptr: I am wondering if you're looking at those logs now, or waiting. It really doesn't matter to me (well, quicker is always nicer, but you're volunteering and I thank you very much for it.). I'm just curious if you're looking right now. If not I'm going to slip off for about.. 30 minutes. If not I don't need to leave and can stil be here
[12:36] <mnoir> tomasso_: this is hacking - there is sumpin subtle here :)
[12:36] <bruenig> [set] , follow ubotu's link
[12:36] <tomasso_> so the skype file exists
[12:36] <steelb> what is the difference between the "generic" ubuntu kernel and the one not labeled generic?
[12:36] <mnoir> tomasso_: but two different commands could not find it
[12:36] <tomasso_> gonna try downloading skype again but from the tar.gz now, and not the tar.bz2
[12:36] <bruenig> tomasso_, what does it say when you do "file skype"
[12:36] <x_> could i get a hand getting my ati drivers workign properly; OpenGL apps run really slow
[12:37] <tomasso_> bruenig: skype: ELF 32-bit LSB executable, Intel 80386, version 1 (SYSV), for GNU/Linux 2.2.0, dynamically linked (uses shared libs), for GNU/Linux 2.2.0, stripped
[12:37] <kitche> x_: what does glxinfo|grep rendering say
[12:37] <bruenig> tomasso_, you may not have the right dependencies to run skype, that is the only thing that makes sense
[12:37] <x_> direct rendering is off
[12:37] <tomasso_> ups im on a 64 bit computer
[12:37] <mnoir> tomasso_: let me knowhow it goes.  btw - ya should put it in /opt - that is the std loc for local optional things
[12:37] <adaptr> TruthElixirX: hda: dma timeout error: status=0x58 { DriveReady SeekComplete DataRequest }
[12:37] <tomasso_> bruenig: downloaded static
[12:37] <PORDO> does edgy use xkb or xmodmap?
[12:37] <ubuntu__> stefg thanks man for the adduser
[12:37] <adaptr> TruthElixirX: that is not usual - it indicates hardware trouble with either the interface or the disk drive
[12:38] <adaptr> TruthElixirX: those errors show up just before a drive tanks, as well :(
[12:38] <TruthElixirX> adaptr: I'm betting the interface is bad, as I just boguht this HDD to repalce an HDD that crashed
[12:38] <kitche> x_: your running fglrx correct?
[12:38] <adaptr> TruthElixirX: how old is the drive ?
[12:38] <x_> yes
[12:38] <adaptr> hmm and th eboard ?
[12:38] <TruthElixirX> adaptr: HDD is brand new. Got it like.. last saturday. Yeah. Exactly a week old
[12:38] <adaptr> what mainboard ?
[12:38] <steelb> what is the difference between the "generic" ubuntu kernel and the one not labeled generic?
[12:38] <x_> i've installed the drivers using apt-get install
[12:38] <bruenig> generic is better
[12:38] <TruthElixirX> adaptr: the mobo is 5 years old or so
[12:38] <x_> and i set the driver to fglrx in xorg.conf
[12:38] <adaptr> TruthElixirX: have you tried a new cable ? you'll be hitting yourself if that's it...
[12:39] <adaptr> TruthElixirX: it has happened to me
[12:39] <adaptr> TruthElixirX: yes, a bad cable may indeed look like a crashing HD
[12:39] <Music_Shuffle> !generic
[12:39] <ubotu> Background to the decision to replace -686, k7 and -smp kernels with -generic can be found here https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-devel/2006-August/019983.html (the -386 kernel is still available if needed)
[12:39] <[set] > thx
[12:39] <[set] > fixed
[12:39] <kitche> x_: ok hmm fglrx needs an extra step to get direct rendering going this page should help you

[12:39] <x_> k
[12:39] <adaptr> TruthElixirX: can you paste the output of lspci for that board ?
[12:39] <TruthElixirX> adaptr: I have not. Let me go get a new cable (new HDD came with one, I just didn't use it) and try that out.
[12:40] <TruthElixirX> adaptr: lspci board?
[12:40] <adaptr> TruthElixirX: and are you sure you'r enot overclokcing that Nforce2 ? :)
[12:40] <wick2o> is there an easy way to remove unwanted locals?
[12:40] <adaptr> TruthElixirX: yes, lspci
[12:40] <wick2o> other then rm /usr/share/local/af
[12:40] <wick2o> or rather a "ubuntu" way of doing it?
[12:40] <adaptr> TruthElixirX: this one is also very suggestive: NFORCE2: BIOS didn't set cable bits correctly. Enabling workaround.
[12:40] <x_> @kitche thanks
[12:41] <adaptr> TruthElixirX: I've NEVER seen that, and I do have an Nforce2 board in this very machine
[12:41] <Shuttt> bsr tlm
[12:41] <TruthElixirX> adaptr: What is the lspci and how can I get its input? And Nforce2? Is that the integrated GFX card? I have an ATi Video card in there. 9600 XT
[12:41] <adaptr> TruthElixirX: you have an nforce2 mainboard, and lspci is a command.. you run it
[12:42] <TruthElixirX> adaptr: doing now.
[12:43] <Rocket_37> Fokuslee: I'm here
[12:43] <TruthElixirX> adaptr: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/1627/
[12:43] <needinfo> With Xubuntu, when I ping my WinXP machine at <IP_ADDRESS> everthing is OK. When I ping <IP_ADDRESS> the message is "Network is unreachable".  How do I troubleshoot this?
[12:43] <adaptr> TruthElixirX: okay, my bad - the nforce2 always sets the cable bits incorrectly :)
[12:43] <steelb> someone gave me a link with information about the generic ubuntu kernel a minute ago. could you send the link again please?
[12:43] <Rocket_37> focuslee: I'm back
[12:43] <TruthElixirX> adaptr: Thats good news.. right?
[12:43] <tomasso_> whats the name of the package that provides 32 bit linux emulation for 62 bit processors ?
[12:43] <Flannel> needinfo: er, what's <IP_ADDRESS>?
[12:44] <Flannel> !chroot | tomasso_
[12:44] <ubotu> tomasso_: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebootstrapChroot use this to build 32 bit environments on a 64 bit box
[12:44] <TruthElixirX> adaptr: so should I replace that cable now?
[12:44] <Flannel> steelb: https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-devel/2006-August/019983.html
[12:44] <adaptr> TruthElixirX: but you said that the drive is a SATA ? where is that, then ?
[12:44] <tomasso_> ubotu: Oks!
[12:44] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about Oks! - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[12:44] <Gosha> what is "LILO"?
[12:44] <Gosha> !lilo
[12:44] <adaptr> TruthElixirX: in a minute... I'd like to probe this
[12:44] <Flannel> Jon12: that pastebin doesn't work.
[12:44] <ubotu> lilo is an alternative [Li] nux Boot[Lo] ader. Note: it is recommended that you use GRUB on Ubuntu instead.
[12:44] <needinfo> Flannel:  That is the address for ori.net. I can't reach it by name so I tried the IP.
[12:45] <Gosha> ah, i see
[12:45] <TruthElixirX> adaptr: I think its SATA. SATA is the long wide ribbon type cable?

[12:45] <ubotu> Compiling software from source? Read the tips at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CompilingSoftware (But remember to search for pre-built !packages first: not all !repositories are enabled by default!)
[12:45] <adaptr> TruthElixirX: erm.. no.... Serial ATA - long, thin cable
[12:45] <ubuntu__> hey i have Ubuntu 7
[12:45] <Sabrex> anyone want to help an ubuntu newbie who cant seem to get grub to install?
[12:45] <ubuntu__> and i more fast
[12:45] <needinfo> Flannel: I am trying to get connected to the net. Not much success so far.
[12:45] <Flannel> needinfo: no, that IP isn't up right now.
[12:45] <TruthElixirX> Oh then... no.. It is the wide gray ribbon type cable...
[12:45] <adaptr> TruthElixirX: have you used a proper 80-core cable ?
[12:46] <TruthElixirX> adaptr: the one that was used for the old HDD, and they're the same size and fit and such
[12:46] <adaptr> TruthElixirX: that's not what I asked.. how many wires does it have, 40 or 80 ?
[12:46] <ubuntu__> !640x480
[12:46] <Jon12> flannel: okay it worked this time http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/1629/
[12:46] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about 640x480 - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[12:47] <vinicius> brazilians???
[12:47] <ubuntu__> now one problem.One friend have computer with 128mb ram
[12:47] <adaptr> the 80 core cables are less flexible, and obviously have less wires, but that's not always easy to see when you only have one available :)
[12:47] <TruthElixirX> adaptr: No idea. Anyway to check?
[12:47] <needinfo> Flannel: It pings from my end. It is my ISP. Maybe pings are OK from inside but not from outside?
[12:47] <ubuntu__> can he install Ubuntu
[12:47] <adaptr> TruthElixirX: open the box :)
[12:47] <TruthElixirX> its open
[12:47] <mirak> how can I know the settings of a running module ?
[12:47] <bruenig> ubuntu__, I would use xubuntu
[12:47] <adaptr> then look at the cable, do some smart guessing
[12:47] <Flannel> Jon12: You'd be fine to upgrade, you have nothing but official repositories.
[12:47] <ubuntu__> Why Xubuntu
[12:47] <Flannel> !upgrade | Jon12
[12:47] <ubotu> Jon12: For upgrading, see the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes
[12:47] <ubuntu__> Man i;m go glad that someone reply
[12:48] <bruenig> ubuntu__, it is for lower end computers
[12:48] <TruthElixirX> adaptr: I just counted. 40.
[12:48] <ubuntu__> bruenig man but what is the difference
[12:48] <bruenig> ubuntu__, again if you would put all your stuff on one line, people would probably reply more, it is hard to follow 3 or 4 lines of stuff
[12:48] <Flannel> ubuntu__: you'll need to use the alternate CD, regardless of the desktop environment you end up using
[12:48] <ubuntu__> bruenig with two word .
[12:48] <bruenig> ubuntu__, one uses gnome and one uses xfce
[12:48] <Jon12> flannel: thank you very much, i'll give it a shot, i have a copy on cd just incase
[12:48] <adaptr> TruthElixirX: was the old HD a really old one, or also relatively new ? what are the sizes ?
[12:48] <mirak> how can I know the settings of a running module ?
[12:48] <bruenig> ubuntu__, and there are some different apps by default but you can always add and remove apps
[12:48] <adaptr> TruthElixirX: you *must* use an 80-core ribbon to be able to use DMA with a newer drive
[12:49] <ubuntu__> bruenig man hmmm he don't know ubuntu
[12:49] <TruthElixirX> adaptr: it came with the computer. ~5 years old. Old one was 120 gigs, two partitions. NTFS was 100 gigs and FAT32 was 20. New HDD is 250 gigs.
[12:49] <adaptr> mirak: in /sys or /proc somewhere
[12:49] <ubuntu__> bruenig man i told him about ubuntu Gnome
[12:49] <ubuntu__> brueing he want some gui like Windows
[12:49] <bruenig> ubuntu__, kde is most windows like
[12:49] <Flannel> ubuntu__: gnome is a GUI
[12:49] <TruthElixirX> adaptr: what is DMA? I don't recall that acronym.
[12:49] <adaptr> TruthElixirX: then it was a horribly wrong cable for the drive :) please use the new cable, especially if that has 80 wires
[12:49] <ubuntu__> FLannel but he have 128 mb ram
[12:50] <bruenig> ubuntu__, xfce is GUI
[12:50] <adaptr> TruthElixirX: oh I probably know dozens more you''ve never heard of :)
[12:50] <ubuntu__> bruenig hmmm someone told me that xfce is gui but not like WIndows
[12:50] <Flannel> ubuntu__: kde and xfce are also all GUIs.  You'll need to use the alternate CD to install though, not the Desktop CD
[12:50] <bruenig> ubuntu__, here is a screenshot of my pitiful xfce desktop, http://s107.photobucket.com/albums/m290/bruenig/12182006.png
[12:50] <ubuntu__> Flannel ok from where i can install it
[12:50] <Gunslinger|Deags> ok i am have returned from my meal adaptr are you still around?
[12:51] <adaptr> bruenig: well, you run utorrent.. that's really all that matters :)
[12:51] <adaptr> !seen adaptr
[12:51] <ubotu> adaptr is on IRC right now!
[12:51] <Gunslinger|Deags> lol
[12:51] <Flannel> ubuntu__: http://xubuntu.com/get  make sure you get the Alternate CD
[12:51] <adaptr> so erm.. that would be yes
[12:51] <Gunslinger|Deags> ok do u stil remmeber my problems?
[12:51] <ubuntu__> FLanelll ok man i will see it
[12:51] <adaptr> Gunslinger|Deags: the hardware ones, right ? always the best problems :)
[12:52] <TruthElixirX> adaptr: new cable that came with HDD is 40 old cable is 40 as well
[12:52] <adaptr> TruthElixirX: how did you count that ?
[12:52] <Gunslinger|Deags> i really dont think its hardware
[12:52] <ubuntu__> bruenig thanks man
[12:52] <Gunslinger|Deags> seriously it worked fine before i installed ubuntu and iteven worked fine after
[12:53] <adaptr> Gunslinger|Deags: yes.. so you've now established that it's not your hardware and it;s not ubuntu.. does that get you anywhere ?
[12:53] <Gunslinger|Deags> i think ti is ubuntu
[12:53] <TruthElixirX> adaptr: I counted the number of holes on the connector. They are in rows of two. I counted by twos. Not a good way t oget the number?
[12:53] <nikolai> can someone help me with configuring xserver
[12:54] <ubuntu__> i put it to download
[12:54] <nikolai> i've run dpkg-reconfigure and i keep getting error message no device
[12:55] <Gunslinger|Deags> adaptr when did we figure out that it was not ubuntu
[12:55] <TruthElixirX> adaptr: since I can;t do that on the one that the HDD is plugged into now, I counted the number of holes on the slave plug in, which was 39, but I'm going to assume it was one off due to being slave or something
[12:55] <factboy818181> hi, i'm trying to print something on my printer, but it keeps on hanging...
[12:55] <ramvi> I there! I'm doing some xmodmaps. Ex: xmodmap -e 'keycode 51 = at asterisk'. They all work but one; xmodmap -e 'keycode 115 = Pointer_Button3'. Why?
[12:55] <Rob002> !lamp
[12:55] <ubotu> LAMP is an acronym for Linux-Apache-MySQL-PHP. However, the term is often used for setups using alternative but different software, such as Perl or Python instead of PHP, and Postgres instead of MySQL. For help with setting up LAMP on Ubuntu, see  https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ApacheMySQLPHP - See also the Server CD installation process (different in Edgy+)
[12:55] <Gunslinger|Deags> u just all of the sudden said hey its ur hardware and i didnt understand why or what u were meaning
[12:56] <nikolai> /var/log/Xorg.0.conf came back with (II) primary device is :pci 00:02:0 (EE) no devices detected
[12:56] <nikolai> how do i fix it?
[12:56] <Moosejaw> man...i justscrewed up my system royally i think...
[12:57] <Gunslinger|Deags> this is so darn confusing and i have intermediate knowledge of computers
[12:57] <Moosejaw> i need to reinstall wpasupplicant, but it wont let me...giving me an error...and now when i open up synaptic manager it doesnt even list any installed packages...
[12:57] <PwndMopar> Where is Sources.list located?
[12:57] <Moosejaw> please help
[12:57] <adaptr> Gunslinger|Deags: because you said so ? "it worked fine after I installed ubuntu"
[12:57] <Flannel> PwndMopar: /etc/apt/sources.list
[12:57] <Gunslinger|Deags> it did
[12:57] <Gunslinger|Deags> but not it doesnt
[12:57] <Sabrex> man this ubuntu installer is giving me such a hard time
[12:57] <PwndMopar> Thanks flannel
[12:58] <adaptr> TruthElixirX: that does *not* give you the number of wires in the cable.. there are always 40 pins, I already knew that without you telling me :)
[12:58] <Gunslinger|Deags> but that automatically means its hardware and not a ubuntu fluke or messup?
[12:58] <factboy818181> can anyone tell me what this means in the CUPS error log: No %%BoundingBox: comment in header!
[12:58] <Slart> I can't get my midi softsynth working (I'm using an SB audigy2 on Ubuntu 6.10). Any tips on where to look?
[12:58] <belkin> hi all
[12:58] <Gunslinger|Deags> i had to get help in here when i installed it the first time because it kept stoping
[12:58] <TruthElixirX> adaptr: damn. Okay. So... I'm not sure. Count the wires?...lol... God
[12:58] <Sabrex> it says that i cant use XFS for /boot, but i have /boot set to mount /dev/hdb1 which i partitioned as ext3
[12:58] <adaptr> Gunslinger|Deags: if it were a "messup", then you should be able to point to it, and reproduce it
[12:59] <Rocket_37> adaptr: does a partition have to be mounted before I can change its permissions?
[12:59] <adaptr> TruthElixirX: no need; like I said, the 80-core ribbon is stronger, less flexible, and will stay the way you bend it - try that with the new one and I guarantee you'll see what I mean
[12:59] <Gunslinger|Deags> well ionno what to tell u all i know is i had problems on this pc with ubuntu before and they were supodidly fixed and now im having the same ones again and i dont believe it to be a hardware issue because windows me worked fine 2 weeks ago
[12:59] <adaptr> Rocket_37: yers
[12:59] <PwndMopar> bash: WTFRUSAYING?: command not found
[01:00] <adaptr> TruthElixirX: either which way, yes - you really should swap them
[01:00] <Rocket_37> adaptr: so in my case, where the partition is mounted but the mount point is empty, how do I change the permissions?
[01:00] <TruthElixirX> adaptr: yes it does that. Okay. I'll sap them
[01:00] <TruthElixirX> brb
[01:00] <belkin> while trying to run " sudo gedit /file " i get this error "" GnomeUI-WARNING **: While connecting to session manager:Authentication Rejected, reason : None of the authentication protocols specified are supported and host-based authentication failed ""  how do i fix it ?
[01:00] <Gunslinger|Deags> i personally think it could be fixed by reformating prior to attempting to install with xubuntu but i do not know how to do that without a windows disk that i do not have
[01:01] <Flannel> Gunslinger|Deags: the xubuntu disk can reformat.  in fact, to install xubuntu, you will reformat
[01:01] <adaptr> Rocket_37: when the partition is empty (I assume it is really empty, too ?) just change the permissoions *on* the directory itself - it;s not really intuitive, but that'll change the permissios of the root directory of the partition, not the permissions of the mount point, since that is now unreachable
[01:01] <Gunslinger|Deags> thats what i keep being told but when i try to use my ubuntu disk it just freezes
[01:01] <Rocket_37> the partition is actually not empty
[01:01] <Rocket_37> does that matter?
[01:01] <PwndMopar> Flannel, a normal cd /ect/apt/ isn't going to get you anywhere, is it?
[01:01] <adaptr> Rocket_37: but if you mount it there are no files ?
[01:01] <Flannel> Gunslinger|Deags: grab an alternate CD, its more robust
[01:02] <Flannel> PwndMopar: er... etc not ect
[01:02] <keddvan> Hello! Erotic site --> http://xuk.fw.hu
[01:02] <Gunslinger|Deags> well will i have a gui if i install from the alternate cd?
[01:02] <PwndMopar> Flannel, that's what I mean :P
[01:02] <adaptr> hi, banned !
[01:02] <Flannel> Gunslinger|Deags: you'll have a GUI once you're installed, but no GUI when installing
[01:02] <PwndMopar> Flannel, nevermind XD
[01:03] <Gunslinger|Deags> ok lemme ask u this then flannel is it possible to do a install off the internet for xubuntu and use a flash drive?
[01:03] <auTONYmous> general question: Is Ubuntu the only distro that uses sudo by default?
[01:03] <Flannel> Gunslinger|Deags: if your computer can boot to a flash drive, sure.  What are you trying to accomplish?  You can also use a minimal CD, which is just the installer (8mb), and downloads all the packages from the internet
[01:04] <Sabrex> anyone know why the installer is telling me that i cant use XFS for /boot when i have a special ext3 partition for /boot?
[01:04] <Gunslinger|Deags> well i only have 1 cd to burn to
[01:04] <Rocket_37> adaptr: I can't enter the mount directory
[01:04] <Gunslinger|Deags> do if that messes up im in trouble lol
[01:04] <Rocket_37> by way of command prompt
[01:04] <adaptr> Rocket_37: can you list it ?
[01:04] <Rocket_37> how?
[01:04] <PwndMopar> (gedit:31687): Gtk-WARNING **: cannot open display:

[01:04] <Moosejaw> i keep getting an error
[01:05] <auTONYmous> Sabrex: were you trying to use a XFS partition at first?

[01:06] <Gunslinger|Deags> so i want the xubuntu alternate cd then and if i insert it and install it even though ubuntu is installed it will reformat everything and i will be ok correct?

[01:25] <tonyyarusso> koert: wget and httrack are worth considering, not sure how with the latter.
[01:26] <Daemonic> I'm in windows about to burn the ubuntu iso to a cd but I need a couple packages to add to the iso first.. where can I download them? I need bcm-fwcutter specificly.. everything I search for tells me to use synaptic or whatever..
[01:26] <Rocket_37> mnoir, yeah, I got that part... no it won't let me in. In fact, when I try cd prefixed with sudo, I get
[01:26] <Rocket_37> sudo: cd: command not found
[01:26] <Taime1> what should i NOT do (inorder to NOT break the law) to get my .wma DRM protected files to play?
[01:27] <stefg> Taime1: you should Not
[01:27] <gnomenoob> can someone help me with a solution for gnome locking up on startup? please?
[01:27] <stefg> Taime1: analog copy... only way
[01:28] <GaryBusey> For Windows XP, what's the command when booting up to boot from the DVD-ROM drive to load the Live CD?
[01:28] <mnoir> Rocket_37: ok - i am going to have you use sudo in a less recommended way - to actually become root rather than just temporaqrily.  please go veeery slowly and ask if you do not understand before doing

[01:28] <Rocket_37> BTW, how do I change the terminal window to w/o/b
[01:29] <mnoir> Rocket_37: w/o/b ??
[01:29] <jrib> GaryBusey: are you trying to load the ubuntu live cd?

[01:29] <koert> tonyyarusso: so if i for instance want to download all the *.txt files from a site, WGet can do it?
[01:29] <Taime1> what if i were to take these wma files to my windows computer at work, then save them as mp3 files, surely there isnt anything wrong with that??
[01:29] <Rocket_37> got it

[01:30] <Rocket_37> ok, let's move on. :)
[01:30] <stefg> Taime1: try vlc... if it cant play it, then you have to burn in win and re-rip in linux

[01:30] <mnoir> Rocket_37: ok - is the prompt a # now?
[01:30] <jrib> Taime1: of course there is, what would be the point of having drm on the wma files then?
[01:30] <gnomenoob> can someone help me with a solution for gnome locking up on startup?
[01:30] <tonyyarusso> koert: It's possible.  I think it requires the directory listing option to be enabled in the apache configuration, but if so, most likely yes.
[01:30] <willytell> !tell willytell about webcam
[01:30] <Pie-rate> Is there anyone here who can help with my sound problem? I've ruled out hardware issues with a live cd.
[01:30] <Rocket_37> yeah
[01:30] <Rocket_37> the prompt is now root@ubuntu~#
[01:30] <Taime1> im sorry, i guess, then , i dont fully understand the DRM
[01:30] <mnoir> Rocket_37: type cd /thecorrect mountpoint
[01:31] <Taime1> but i can tell by y'alls' tone, that it just shouldnt be done

[01:31] <jrib> Taime1: think about it.  You distribute content in a format that doesn't allow users to play it except when you want them to.  Does it make sense for you to say, "hey, you know what, if you want to, just copy it to an mp3 and do what you want with it."
[01:31] <mnoir> Rocket_37: yes - you still have a perms issue but we know it is there.....
[01:31] <Rocket_37> ok
[01:32] <needinfo> Am stumped. I can't get help here, so are there any other chat or websites that I could find help on connecting Xubuntu to the internet? Please, any suggestions greatly appreciated. Have many, many hours invested in net research but can't find answers that solve this. Probalby is simple to someone with experience, I just can't stumble on  the answer!
[01:32] <Rocket_37> just for the record, now, in the file browser I still cannot view the directory
[01:32] <Pie-rate> Is there any way to COMPLETELY clear out everything to do with sound and reinstall it?
[01:32] <mnoir> adaptr: what perms should Rocket_37 set for his properly mounted ntfs part so users can access it?

[01:39] <juano> gnomenoob: what seems to be the problem?
[01:40] <Rocket_37> mnoir: there's no line for data1
[01:40] <LookTj> Hi
[01:40] <riotkittie> dpkg-reconfigure will reconfigure xorg ... you'll be able to select resolutions there
[01:40] <Dasnipa`> Wimpog, you should have a place to choose their mount point
[01:40] <phixnay> I'm trying to install compiz on nVidia, and AMD 64. Last time I tried, x crashed, and I am lucky I was able to get X back, so is this guide ok for my purposes?  http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Ubuntu_Edgy#How_to_install_compiz-freedesktop_without_XGL_.2F_AIGLX_utilising_the_latest_Nvidia_BETA_drivers
[01:40] <gnomenoob> it seems that every other time i boot up my system gnome locks up while it is loading
[01:40] <LookTj> i can't send files on jabber
[01:40] <LookTj> is this a problem with iptables?
[01:40] <mnoir> Rocket_37: ok - do you have been manually mounting.  I think making the line for system mounting is a good idea - you can make it mount at boot time or not as you see fit
[01:40] <riotkittie> Wimpog: with a u-haul?  <ducks>
[01:40] <up365> [set] : this link will walk you thru your sound card problems,worked for my SB Live http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=205449
[01:41] <Wimpog> Dasnipa`: I'm clueless about that. Can you please clarify
[01:41] <mundano> Wimpog: you should edit your /etc/fstab to mount those partitions in those mont-points...
[01:41] <juano> gnomenoob: is there any error message?
[01:41] <gnomenoob> i figured that it must have been something I had done, so I reloaded ubuntu. it's still doing it
[01:41] <mnoir> Rocket_37: it would help us now as well since you can make it identical to mine
[01:41] <Puck_> hi people
[01:41] <LookTj> because i think jabber does direct connections on file transfers?
[01:41] <mnoir> Rocket_37: since i also have an ntfs part mounted
[01:41] <Puck_> i have a serious trouble with beryl
[01:41] <juano> gnomenoob: at what point does it hang?
[01:41] <gnomenoob> no error messages just will not load . panels half load and gnome hangs
[01:41] <Puck_> someone know it?
[01:41] <Rocket_37> mnoir: ok... I'm not sure what you're saying, but I'll do what you ask
[01:41] <Wimpog> mundano: Thanks. So, then once I edit /etc/fstab I restart, right? What's the diff between /etc/fstab and /etc/mtab?
[01:42] <riotkittie> Puck_: try #ubuntu-xgl
[01:42] <mnoir> Rocket_37: do you know how to edit text files?
[01:42] <Wimpog> riotkittie: what u-haul are you talking about?
[01:42] <Rocket_37> mnoir, sure
[01:42] <Puck_> thanks
[01:42] <gnomenoob> it usually hangs while it's starting up
[01:42] <Moosejaw> someone please have mercy on me, and help me get my wpasupplicant updated
[01:42] <camerong> can anyone here help me with a nidswrapper problem?
[01:42] <juano> gnomenoob: you can try sudo mv ~/.gnome ~/.gnome.bak, this will move your settings to another file and start up with a clean fresh one
[01:42] <Rocket_37> mnoir, as long as there's an associated editor
[01:42] <Moosejaw> i keep getting an error i dont understand
[01:42] <riotkittie> gnomenoob: half load like you get SOME applets ... and then BOOM nothing? no desktop?
[01:42] <Rocket_37> mnoir: I guess that's already set up in ubuntu
[01:42] <gnomenoob> correct
[01:42] <mnoir> Rocket_37: yer not sure:  we are going to put all the parms for the mount in the system place so your mount wull be vary simple
[01:42] <mundano> Moosejaw: do you use trevino's repositories?
[01:43] <Moosejaw> maybe....
[01:43] <Moosejaw> but do u want to see the error?
[01:43] <juano> gnomenoob: you can try what i told you, sometimes it helps with those issues
[01:43] <Moosejaw> it downloads it
[01:43] <Rocket_37> mnoir: ok, you're tlaking about editing the fstab file?
[01:43] <Moosejaw> and trys to install it
[01:43] <mnoir> Rocket_37: do you know vi?  yes - fstab :)
[01:43] <gnomenoob> i'll try it.
[01:43] <mundano> something about a sctipt?
[01:43] <Rocket_37> mnoir: I've been doing some reading

[01:44] <ubuntu__> from wher i can get ftpd
[01:45] <Moosejaw> how do i do that?
[01:45] <mundano> you can force it on synaptic

[01:45] <Moosejaw> how do i downgrade it?
[01:45] <JohnnyX_> the only way i can get it to start is by su to root
[01:45] <Wimpog> willytell: both of them? Do you know what is the purpose of fstab and mtab?
[01:45] <gnomenoob> have you found a solution?
[01:45] <Rocket_37> I just checked manually
[01:45] <Rocket_37> it's there

[01:46] <Wimpog> willytell: Do I need to restart, once I edit fstab, mtab?  I load up terminal type "sudo mv ~/.gnome ~/.gnome.bak" and reboot my system?
[01:47] <tonyyarusso> ubuntu__: I use vsftpd.
[01:47] <Rocket_37> mnoir: btw, I don't know if this is clear, but I'm running from the Live CD
[01:48] <ubuntu__> ok man i will see it
[01:48] <Rocket_37> mnoir: so nothing we do is critical
[01:48] <riotkittie>  i've noticed that when gnome wont progress beyond panel loading on my account, i can login on my other user and everything's fine
[01:48] <willytell> Wimpog, when you configure fstab and mtab you can indicate automatic mount.
[01:48] <ubuntu__> tony from where are you
[01:48] <Rocket_37> mnoir: but I'm logging this chat soI can refer back to it
[01:48] <juano> gnomenoob: yes, you dont reboot, just press ctrl + alt + backspace to restart X-server
[01:48] <grndslm> I'm using Ubuntu and am wondering if anybody can help me figure out why nm-applet won't display any wireless networks found with my ipw3945???  It just shows "Wired Network" and that's it
[01:48] <tonyyarusso> ubuntu__: That's offtopic
[01:48] <BULLE> ubuntu__: what does it matter, where he is from, we are all from the internet
[01:48] <BenFP> hi i have an extermal wester digital harddrive on a USB and when i plug it in it sais it's a read only drive... but i'd like to delete some files i have on there... how do i change that??????
[01:48] <mnoir> Rocket_37: !!!  - we cannot do this the way i want then - it may not stick....
[01:48] <gnomenoob> i'll try it thanks
[01:48] <ubuntu__> BULLE i only ask
[01:48] <Kyral> BenFP: Is it in NTFS or FAT32?
[01:48] <ubuntu__> i will not kill him
[01:48] <mnoir> Rocket_37: but lets try
[01:49] <Pie-rate> Ok, I'm on knoppix and sound is working, where do i find the configuration files for sound?
[01:49] <Pie-rate> all of them
[01:49] <BenFP> it is in NTFS old windows files i ahve in there
[01:49] <tonyyarusso> !sound | Pie-rate
[01:49] <ubotu> Pie-rate: If you're having problems with sound, first ensure ALSA is selected, by double clicking on the volume control, then File -> Change Device (ALSA Mixer). If that fails, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Sound - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting - http://alsa.opensrc.org/index.php?page=DmixPlugin
[01:49] <BULLE> ubuntu__: and as he kindly replies, its of topic
[01:49] <stefg> BenFP: either it's ntfs, or filesystem is broken and thus mounted read-only
[01:49] <MrKeuner> hi, I have a printer icon on the top panel. I click on it and it is empty. i reboot and the icon is still there. I cannot print by the way. any help is welcome

[01:52] <BenFP> so how do i get this ntfs-3g driver???
[01:52] <mnoir> Rocket_37: DONT FLOOD - what i saw looks ok
[01:52] <gnomenoob> sorry i thought i had it copied but clearly i'm a complete moron tonight
[01:52] <riotkittie> sudo mv ~/.gnome ~/.gnome.bak
[01:52] <LookTj> I have a jabber related problem
[01:52] <gnomenoob> thanks riotkittie
[01:53] <riotkittie> np
[01:53] <Rocket_37> mnoir: sorry, what's flooding?
[01:53] <mnoir> Rocket_37: when you paste multi lines
[01:53] <Rocket_37> mnoir, oh, ok, no problem.
[01:53] <mnoir> you need to add a line that looks like this:
[01:53] <willytell> Wimpog, I don't understand well why are you doing all that manually?
[01:53] <willytell> Wimpog, I don't understand well why you are doing all that manually?
[01:54] <Wimpog> willytell: just to learn howTheHeckPartitioningWorks
[01:54] <Rocket_37> how come Gaim changes the color of your name?
[01:54] <willytell> ok ;)
[01:54] <mnoir> Rocket_37: /dev/hda1    /media/data1    ntfs         defaults 0 0
[01:54] <Rocket_37> is that a single line?
[01:54] <grndslm> I'm using Ubuntu and am wondering if anybody can help me figure out why nm-applet won't display any wireless networks found with my ipw3945???  It just shows "Wired Network" and that's it
[01:54] <mnoir> Rocket_37: yes
[01:55] <Rocket_37> mnoir: ok, done
[01:55] <Wimpog> willytell: however, I still can't mount that other hard drive... I haven't edited the fstab and mtab, just did mount
[01:55] <mnoir> Rocket_37: it should look like some of the other lines i think
[01:55] <herumor> salut
[01:55] <BenFP> why  is it so complicated to get apps on here that aren't in the add/remove section?
[01:55] <phixnay> grndslm: sorry, this might be obvious, but do you know you're in range of any?
[01:55] <gnomenoob> it's telling me that there is no such file or directory. where should i be?
[01:55] <BenFP> how do i get this ntfs-3g driver?
[01:55] <mnoir> Rocket_37: then save the file
[01:55] <Rocket_37> mnoir: it's the only line of its type. Why all the white space between items?
[01:55] <grndslm> phixnay:  yup, in an apt complex...plenty around
[01:56] <phixnay> hmm ok
[01:56] <phixnay> what kind of wireless card are you using?
[01:56] <mnoir> Rocket_37: just sloppiness - you can make it only 1 space per gap
[01:56] <Rocket_37> BTW, what's wrong with flooding a few lines?
[01:56] <willytell> Wimpog, are you ready to mount those drives?
[01:56] <tonyyarusso> Rocket_37: Busy channel, so lots of scrolling, which is hard to follow.
[01:56] <mnoir> Rocket_37: IN THIS BUSY CHANNEL??
[01:56] <juano> gnomenoob: sudo mv yourhomeuserdir/.gnome yourhomeuserdir/.gnome.bak
[01:56] <Rocket_37> Ah, I see.. it's only because the channel is busy
[01:56] <Wimpog> willytell: not quite. I still have to create the file system on those partitions. I'm now trying to figure out how to do that
[01:57] <mnoir> Rocket_37: that is what pastebin is for
[01:57] <Enverex> When I open Azureus it closes like 2 seconds after the GUI appears. Any ideas?
[01:57] <mnoir> Rocket_37: so is file stored
[01:57] <mnoir> ?
[01:57] <tonyyarusso> Rocket_37: Many less-busy channels don't like it either, but especially here yes.
[01:57] <I-kido> BenFP, enable all repo's in synaptic. You will see and be able to install ntfs-3g
[01:57] <Rocket_37> mnoir: yeah, saved
[01:57] <BenFP> ahhh thank you :)
[01:57] <Rocket_37> What is pastebin?
[01:57] <mnoir> ok - cat /etc/fstab    to confirm it is there
[01:57] <mnoir> !pastebin | Rocket_37
[01:57] <ubotu> Rocket_37: pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (be sure to give the URL of your paste - see also the #ubuntu channel topic)

[02:02] <BenFP> i dunno what it's doing but there are lots of numbers going on :P
[02:02] <bruenig> BenFP, hopefully more letter than numbers
[02:02] <juano> gnomenoob: hold on 1 sec
[02:02] <BenFP> lol yeah that too
[02:03] <Rocket_37> mnoir: I'm looking for what, exactly?
[02:03] <mnoir> Rocket_37: the line we added to fstab in the editor
[02:03] <BenFP> E: Unable to lock the administration directory (/var/lib/dpkg/), is another process using it?
[02:03] <BenFP> is that normal?
[02:03] <mnoir> Rocket_37: the second field must be /mnt/data1
[02:03] <bruenig> BenFP, close synaptic
[02:04] <Rocket_37> mnoir: ok, so I have dev/hda1 /media/data1 ntfs defaults 0 0
[02:04] <bruenig> BenFP, then run sudo apt-get update in terminal again
[02:04] <mnoir> BenFP: you are trying to run 2 pkg mgrs
[02:04] <BenFP> i'm lost :(
[02:04] <steelb> what numbers in chmod should i use to make it readable and writable by my name
[02:04] <BenFP> i ran it on the terminal
[02:04] <mnoir> Rocket_37: sorry - need to edit it again - my mistake in my cut and paste
[02:04] <bruenig> BenFP, synaptic package manager needs to be closed
[02:04] <BenFP> i dunno what this sunaptic thing is

[02:05] <wimpies> Hi all, I have this problem after I tried to install ttf-opensymbol.  I get fontconfig errors I cannot get rid of ... "/usr/share/fonts": error scanning ... what can I do about this ?
[02:05] <bruenig> BenFP, synaptic is a program that you are running, it should be on the bottom in the task list
[02:05] <Zambezi> I need to flash my motherboard with a .exe-file. How should I do that in Linux?
[02:05] <ubuntu__> hey why apache give me 500
[02:05] <BenFP> ah ok
[02:05] <mnoir> Rocket_37: change media to mnt and save the file
[02:05] <bruenig> BenFP, when you close that, run sudo apt-get update
[02:06] <mnoir> Rocket_37: i really blew it!  change hda to sda
[02:06] <Rocket_37> mnoir: and also change hda to sda
[02:06] <Rocket_37> mnoir: lol right
[02:06] <BenFP> W: You may want to run apt-get update to correct these problems
[02:06] <bruenig> BenFP, apt-get is a command line program that synaptic uses, so you can't have synaptic open while you are doing apt-get commands
[02:06] <steelb> What chmod numbers do I use to make it readable and writable by my user... is it 755? or 777?
[02:06] <mnoir> Rocket_37: i think maybe you are beginning to think on yer own?
[02:06] <ubuntu__> apache error 500 server error
[02:06] <BenFP> i copy and pasted the original comande you gave me...
[02:06] <mnoir> Rocket_37: tell me when saved
[02:07] <Rocket_37> mnoir: I'm very familiar with command lines, just not with linux syntax. I've been repairing PCs since the days of DOS
[02:07] <bruenig> BenFP, do what it says copy and paste "sudo apt-get update"
[02:07] <Rocket_37> mnoir: 15 years or so
[02:07] <Enverex> Does BitTornado support Distributed Trackers?
[02:07] <BenFP> HA!
[02:07] <bruenig> Enverex, no, a lot of people complain about that
[02:07] <BenFP> sweet
[02:07] <mnoir> Rocket_37: me too...  it is hard when yer very good at sumpin but a rank beginner at sumpin elsenow mount /mnt/data1
[02:08] <BenFP> ok so now if i go back to add/remove and type ntfs-3g it will have it?
[02:08] <Enverex> bruenig, Do you know of any that do other than Azuerus? (The moment I add a torrent to Azureus it just closes itself :( )
[02:08] <bruenig> Enverex, I use utorrent through wine
[02:08] <Enverex> ugh
[02:08] <mnoir> Rocket_37: so does mount work now?
[02:08] <bruenig> Enverex, ktorrent has it also
[02:08] <Enverex> Oh, cool
[02:08] <gnomenoob> is it ok for me to delete my .gnome2 directory?
[02:08] <Rocket_37> let's see...
[02:09] <krang> join #photoshop
[02:09] <stefg> Enverex: consider Torrent on wine
[02:09] <woodwizzle> Is there a page that describes how to make a derrivative distro of ubuntu?
[02:09] <Enverex> I'm not running torrents through Wine
[02:09] <bruenig> gnomenoob, it won't break anything, you will lose some settings and stuff
[02:09] <Enverex> wine adds enough overhead as is
[02:09] <Rocket_37> mnoir: still no gui access
[02:09] <BenFP> ntfs-3g is still not in my add/remover window :(
[02:09] <bruenig> right but I use rss and ktorrent didn't have it
[02:09] <bruenig> but it does now
[02:09] <bruenig> I should probably switch over
[02:09] <TruthElixirX> adaptr: you still here?
[02:09] <stefg> Enverex: compare that to a 70 MB java vm.....
[02:09] <gnomenoob> maybe it will solve my intermittent gnome starup locking issues?
[02:09] <mnoir> Rocket_37: ls -l /mnt and paste 1 line for data1?
[02:09] <Pie-rat1> cat /dev/urandom>/dev/dsp doesn't produce sound, snd_pcm_oss is loaded, and its confirmed not to be a hardware issue. any suggestions? (i'm giving this channel one last try before i stop joining it completely, don't respond with the stupid bot)
[02:10] <Enverex> stefg, So all linux native apps need a 70MB Java WM do they?
[02:10] <TruthElixirX> Can someone tell me how to make sure GRUB installed correctly this time? adaptr was helping me but he seems to be AFK
[02:10] <stefg> Enverex: no... only azureus

[02:11] <mnoir> Rocket_37: ok - let me splain the 'feature' that is hanging you up
[02:11] <willytell> that's all for me, see you guys.
[02:11] <Rocket_37> mnoir: I'm all ears
[02:11] <BenFP> i ran that command line but ntfs-3g doesn't come up on my add/remove... did i do something wrong??

[02:11] <mnoir> Rocket_37: i am pretty sure nautilus wont show it if it thinks you shouldnt look at it
[02:11] <bruenig> BenFP, do sudo apt-get install ntfs-3g
[02:11] <Rocket_37> mnoir: nautilus? There's a new name
[02:12] <mnoir> Rocket_37: lets try the chmod that i believe you needed to do 3 hrs ago
[02:12] <Rocket_37> mnoir: ok
[02:12] <mnoir> Rocket_37: nautilus = file manager
[02:12] <stefg> Enverex: it boils down to 3 options: azureus (ugly), wine/Torrent (ok), kTorrent (good if you are a KDE zealot)
[02:12] <Rocket_37> mnoir: BTW, are you typing "Rocket_37" before every line manually?
[02:12] <mnoir> Rocket_37: cd /mnt
[02:12] <CyberCod> anyone know how to get mp4 to work in dapper?
[02:12] <Enverex> stefg, I'm using KTorrent thanks, you don't need to be on KDE to use KDE apps

[02:12] <mnoir> Rocket_37: just ro then tab
[02:12] <BenFP> do i need to restart my computer??
[02:12] <bruenig> If I had kde then I would use  ktorrent but ktorrent is essentially the same overhead as utorrent since it is not native
[02:12] <facugaich> http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=338073 -> can someone help me?
[02:12] <bruenig> BenFP, restart on linux.... no
[02:12] <Rocket_37> ro?
[02:13] <Rocket_37> what does that do?
[02:13] <Rocket_37> Rohmm
[02:13] <jrib> ROcket_37
[02:13] <Rocket_37> ah
[02:13] <mnoir> Rocket_37: ewhat does Rocket_37 begin with??
[02:13] <BenFP> hahaha
[02:13] <BenFP> :P sweet
[02:13] <BenFP> so now i can delete some files on my ntfs drive? just like that?
[02:13] <mnoir> Rocket_37: so cd /mnt
[02:13] <riotkittie> CyberCod: i play then in xmms
[02:13] <Rocket_37> mnoir: what IRC client are you using?
[02:13] <Rocket_37> mnoir: typed that.
[02:14] <mnoir> Rocket_37: konversation - i use kde on my desktop, usually
[02:14] <fatalis> I'm fixing someone elses laptop, and I wanted to install ubuntu for him
[02:14] <fatalis> just for kicks, since he won't use it anyway
[02:14] <Rocket_37> mnoir: ah, I guess Gaim doesn't have a similar feature
[02:14] <mnoir> Rocket_37: this completion should exist in yrs though
[02:14] <mnoir> Rocket_37: dunno
[02:14] <riotkittie> sudo apt-cache install xmms-mp4
[02:14] <riotkittie> errr
[02:14] <phixnay> I have a large reiserfs partition - can I shrink it and make a small ex3 partition to share with windows?
[02:14] <riotkittie> sudo apt-get install xmms-mp4
[02:14] <mnoir> Rocket_37: k so cd /mnt pls
[02:14] <fatalis> there's one problem, though: it would be a big inconvenience if I had to give a password together with it
[02:14] <bruenig> Gaim has tab complete
[02:15] <Rocket_37> mnoir done
[02:15] <mnoir> Rocket_37: chmod 770 data1
[02:15] <fatalis> any chance to make it work with a passwordless user?
[02:15] <xamox> if I'm using my SSH server as a proxy server, does it cache data anywhere?
[02:15] <Rocket_37> chmod: changing permissions of `data1': Read-only file system
[02:16] <jrib> Rocket_37: have you tried setting umask=0222 in your mount options?
[02:16] <Rocket_37> jrib: I don't even know what that is.
[02:16] <jrib> Rocket_37: change "defaults" in your fstab line to "umask=0222"
[02:16] <mnoir> jrib: will that work if he ison the live cd instead of real install?
[02:17] <iketurner> do you have to recompile mysql to load the php module
[02:17] <jrib> Rocket_37: wait, did you add a line to your fstab already?
[02:17] <jrib> mnoir: sure, why not?
[02:17] <mnoir> jrib: just askin
[02:17] <jrib> mnoir: it should
[02:17] <Rocket_37> jrib: I added a line as instructed by mnoir
[02:17] <mnoir> jrib: the line is in his fstab yes
[02:17] <BenFP> i still can't delete files on my ntfs drive :(
[02:18] <mnoir> Rocket_37: so you can modify fstab as jr sez
[02:18] <Rocket_37> mnoir: ok
[02:18] <jrib> Rocket_37: k, then make the change as above, save, umount /dev/whatever, mount -a
[02:18] <riotkittie> BenFP: and you've done something to enable writing to that partition?
[02:18] <BenFP> yeah i got ntfs-3g
[02:18] <Rocket_37> jrib: I don't have a line like the one you mention
[02:18] <jrib> Rocket_37: paste the line you have
[02:18] <mnoir> Rocket_37: change the word default on the added line
[02:19] <BenFP> i don'T know where it is in my system... but i got it from the terminal...
[02:19] <PwndMopar> I think the most dreaded part of upgrading Ubuntu is the downloading :P
[02:19] <bruenig> download and then leave
[02:19] <jrib> PwndMopar: no it's definitely when the upgrade stops without finishing :)
[02:19] <PwndMopar> jrib, ahah :P
[02:19] <bruenig> a watched compter doesn't download
[02:19] <juano> BenFP: did you change ntfs for ntfs-3g in fstab?
[02:19] <juano> BenFP: after that sudo mount -a
[02:20] <iketurner> can anyone help
[02:20] <mnoir> Rocket_37: did you get that last?
[02:20] <BenFP> what does mount a mean??
[02:20] <jrib> !php | iketurner
[02:20] <ubotu> iketurner: LAMP is an acronym for Linux-Apache-MySQL-PHP. However, the term is often used for setups using alternative but different software, such as Perl or Python instead of PHP, and Postgres instead of MySQL. For help with setting up LAMP on Ubuntu, see  https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ApacheMySQLPHP - See also the Server CD installation process (different in Edgy+)
[02:20] <juano> BenFP: changing ntfs for ntfs-3g in your ntfs partition line inside fstab
[02:20] <Rocket_37> mnoir: sorry, I tried to use pastebin to show the contents of my fstab
[02:20] <iketurner> I have read that and Ia m getting a mysql php module error
[02:20] <Rocket_37> mnoir: told me I was spamming
[02:20] <mnoir> BenFP: if you type man mount at a terminal prompt, you can read what -a means
[02:20] <bruenig> BenFP, mount -a mounts all of the drives in the fstab
[02:20] <BenFP> i just want to be able to delete some files off my external hardrive
[02:20] <iketurner> I have read that doc all dam day
[02:20] <Rocket_37> mnoir: weird
[02:20] <iketurner> lol
[02:21] <juano> mount means to make the partition accesible for r/rw/rwx
[02:21] <BenFP> do i want to do that??
[02:21] <mnoir> Rocket_37: yeah - it is finicky - solve that later
[02:21] <jrib> iketurner: which apache are you using?
[02:21] <bruenig> BenFP, yes
[02:21] <BenFP> lol ok
[02:21] <iketurner> 1.3
[02:21] <juano> BenFP: yes, you want to mount it so you can change files inside it, view it etc
[02:21] <iketurner> actually I have both but 1.3 is runnign
[02:21] <BenFP> nothing happend
[02:21] <Rocket_37> mnoir: for sure... Ok, so I add "umask=0222" to the end of the line I added earlier?
[02:21] <Iceman> the perfec
[02:22] <mnoir> Rocket_37: no change the word 'default' to 'umask=0222'
[02:22] <juano> BenFP: after you install ntfs-3g from repos, you have to change ntfs for ntfs-3g inside fstab in your ntfs partition line, then you have to do sudo mount -a
[02:22] <jrib> iketurner: you installed libapache-mod-php4?
[02:22] <iketurner> no I have 5
[02:22] <mnoir> Rocket_37: fstab is a very old fashioned file and the parms innit are positional
[02:22] <BenFP> i dunno how to change that....
[02:22] <iketurner> I will try and install it
[02:22] <jrib> iketurner: what package
[02:23] <phixnay> hi everyone - is it possible to install compiz on amd 64 without crashing X?
[02:23] <jrib> iketurner: yeah, 5 doesn't seem to be in the edgy repos for apache 1.3
[02:23] <juano> BenFP: gksudo gedit /etc/fstab
[02:23] <mnoir> Rocket_37: but not completely positional.  it is a long story
[02:23] <BenFP> can you send me a pm cause i have to leave for 5 mins...
[02:23] <mnoir> Rocket_37: paste the line from fstab after save
[02:23] <juano> BenFP: ok
[02:23] <Rocket_37> mnoir: Ok, I changed the word "defauls" (yes, it was plural) to "umask=0222"
[02:23] <iketurner> it is installed
[02:23] <BenFP> thank you :)
[02:24] <iketurner> libapache-mod-php4
[02:24] <mnoir> Rocket_37: paste the altered line
[02:24] <Rocket_37> mnoir: ^defaults
[02:24] <Rocket_37> mnoir: /dev/sda1 /mnt/data1 ntfs umask=0222 0 0

It connects to my network during install just fine during install of ubuntu, and won't work after. I'm new to linux, any help would be really appreciated.
[02:27] <BenFP> brb
[02:27] <Dot-Communist> me?
[02:27] <Rocket_37> mnoir: that's why I'm saving this convo to a text file

[02:27] <Tenri1> were I to install the newest version of Adobe flash player, into what directory should I install it?  I used /usr/lib/firefox and it hasn't worked.
[02:27] <ubotu> Tenri1: flash9 is available from dapper-backports and edgy-backports now, see !backports

[02:28] <SurfnKid> jrib, u there
[02:28] <Dot-Communist> HOW DO I USE NAUTILUS SCRIPTS
[02:28] <Flannel> !caps | Dot-Communist
[02:28] <ubotu> Dot-Communist: PLEASE DON'T SHOUT! We can read lowercase too.
[02:28] <mnoir> Rocket_37: enuf?
[02:28] <Dot-Communist> obviously noy
[02:28] <Dot-Communist> *not
[02:28] <Mentok> RAR!
[02:28] <Rocket_37> Hey, is "=" not a valid filename character in Linux?
[02:28] <Mentok> Hey
[02:28] <CyberCod> riotkittie, thanx  but they're videos... I dunno much about the mp4 format
[02:28] <piratemath> sorry, fixed nick. Anybody have experiance with prism cards?
[02:28] <Dot-Communist> hmmmmm
[02:28] <Rocket_37> mnoir: enough for one evening, yes! Thank you VERY much for the crash course
[02:28] <d03boy> I fixed my wireless problem where it would show no networks. I had to go into BIOS and enable my wireless card (no clue why it would disable itself)
[02:29] <mnoir> Rocket_37: it works for me
[02:29] <mnoir> Rocket_37: = works for me...
[02:29] <HymnToLife> Rocket_37, no, what makes you think so ?
[02:29] <Flannel> Dot-Communist: you put them in ~/.gnome/nautilus-scripts
[02:29] <CyberCod> Rocket37 ... my download folder is named     -=Dumpzone=-  so i guess it works
[02:29] <Dot-Communist> thanx
[02:29] <shad0w> anyone want to explain to me how to use cabextract
[02:29] <Dot-Communist> so then how do i use it
[02:29] <Rocket_37> mnoir: interesting... I have a folder that begins with "=" and it's not appearing
[02:29] <piratemath> it's a pcmcia card, I don't think that would show up in BIOS?
[02:29] <mnoir> Rocket_37: ok - promise to pass on the gift to the next clueless wonder :)
[02:29] <Flannel> Dot-Communist: that depends on the script
[02:29] <mnoir> Rocket_37: in ntfs??
[02:30] <d03boy> Pirate-King, whats the problem?
[02:30] <Rocket_37> mnoir: I'm ALL ABOUT passing it forward
[02:30] <mnoir> Rocket_37: = is in yer ntfs partition??
[02:30] <belkin> what the command To write files to the floppy disks ?
[02:30] <Rocket_37> mnoir: in NTFS. Actually, some of my "=" folders are appearing
[02:30] <mnoir> Rocket_37: hmm - dunno
[02:31] <mnoir> Rocket_37: i do not use funny characters on principle
[02:31] <Rocket_37> mnoir.... OOOH
[02:31] <HymnToLife> belkin, the same as the commands to write any file...
[02:31] <Tenri1> what's the url on the ubuntu website for the !note thing ya'll are doing?
[02:31] <mnoir> Rocket_37: ?
[02:31] <piratemath> It's a senao 2511 cd prism 2.5 card.

[02:31] <ubotu> I am ubotu, all-knowing infobot. You can browse my brain at http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl - Usage info: http://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuBots
[02:31] <Rocket_37> mnoir: I see... "=" does not is not a higher order character than alphanumeric characters
[02:31] <belkin> HymnToLife lol aint true
[02:31] <HymnToLife> belkin, please elaborate then
[02:31] <bluefox83> ok, i can not for the life of me figure out hwo to use avidemux, can anyone help me out? i can chose the decoders and such, but i have no idea how to make it actually start decoding
[02:31] <piratemath> the thing seems to connect to my network during my install, shows up as eth1 after, but I can't get it to connect to anything.
[02:32] <Rocket_37> mnoir: I use it in Windows because names starting with "=" jump to the top of the list
[02:32] <mnoir> Rocket_37: oh - I see - watch out - there are some ways to violate expectations on sort order that will drive you nuts
[02:32] <HymnToLife> bluefox83, decoding what ?
[02:32] <belkin> HymnToLife what about " dd if=filename of=/dev/fd0 bs=1024 conv=sync ; sync " thats what iv seen on the net
[02:32] <Mentok> Wireless adapters should show up as wifi# or ath#
[02:32] <mnoir> Rocket_37: linux is waaay too accomodating for me on this
[02:32] <Tenri1> !flash9
[02:32] <ubotu> flash9 is available from dapper-backports and edgy-backports now, see !backports
[02:32] <belkin>  HymnToLife ohh my bad i didnt said " To write the floppy disk image files to the floppy disks "
[02:32] <Tenri1> !backports
[02:32] <ubotu> If new updated Ubuntu packages are built for an application, then they go into Ubuntu Backports. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuBackports
[02:32] <HymnToLife> belkin, that's to write a floppy image to a floppy disk (and you have to use sudo)
[02:32] <mnoir> Rocket_37: i gotta put my sinuses to sleep so i can feed the sheep in the morning
[02:33] <Flannel> belkin: that'll copy that file, byte for byte, unless that file is a disk image, that's not what you wnt.  you just want to copy a file, so just do it like noral
[02:33] <Rocket_37> mnoir: right, so my folder, "=playlists" is listed after "pink floyd"
[02:33] <bluefox83> HymnToLife, .avi files into .mpeg
[02:33] <mnoir> Rocket_37: oh - I see
[02:33] <Rocket_37> mnoir, thanks again!
[02:33] <Rocket_37> mnoir: have a great night
[02:33] <mnoir> Rocket_37: np :)
[02:33] <Rocket_37> mnoir: happy feeding.
[02:34] <belkin> Flannel i forgot to say that " yes " i do want to write a floppy image to a floppy disk my bad
[02:34] <HymnToLife> bluefox83, avidemux can't create MPEG-1 stream AFAIK
[02:34] <piratemath> Is there a way to figure out the settings used during the install and apply them to a configuration file?
[02:34] <slew> hi! i really messed up and installed a gtk2 theme that dosent work, now i have no panels and gnome cant start. how do i fix this?
[02:34] <bluefox83> HymnToLife, according to the program it can..
[02:34] <belkin> Flannel after running that command i get this dd: writing `/dev/fd0': Input/output error
[02:34] <asubedi> is there a tagging functionality for nautilus?
[02:34] <Rocket_37> Thanks, also, to everyone else! Now back to Windows for some WoW...
[02:34] <HymnToLife> belkin, use !sudo
[02:34] <belkin> HymnToLife i did
[02:35] <Flannel> Rocket_37: you can run WoW on linux
[02:35] <Rocket_37> Flannel: !?
[02:35] <Rocket_37> Flannel: there's a Linux installer?
[02:35] <d03boy> vmware or whatever
[02:35] <Flannel> Rocket_37: no, but that doesn't mean it's not doable
[02:35] <HymnToLife> Rocket_37, you can with !wine or !cedega
[02:35] <Rocket_37> right, emulation
[02:35] <belkin> brb
[02:36] <riotkittie> no no. not emulation.
[02:36] <Flannel> Rocket_37: wine isn't an emulator
[02:36] <Gunslinger|Deags> flannel are u still here
[02:36] <Gunslinger|Deags> !seen flannel
[02:36] <ubotu> Flannel is on IRC right now!
[02:36] <Gunslinger|Deags> cool
[02:36] <Rocket_37> Flannel: what is it?
[02:36] <Dot-Communist> Thank you flannel
[02:36] <HymnToLife> lmao
[02:36] <piratemath> how about, does anybody here use hostap as their wireless driver?
[02:36] <riotkittie> Wine Is Not an Emulator <beats you with  a nerf bat>
[02:36] <Dot-Communist> it was a audio convert script
[02:36] <Dot-Communist> :]
[02:36] <Dot-Communist> and it works now
[02:37] <HymnToLife> Funny how FOSS is often defined by what it is _not_
[02:37] <Gunslinger|Deags> ok i burned xubuntu on a disk and im getting rdy to install it what do u wanna intsall in flannel text mode or oem mode?
[02:37] <HymnToLife> WINE, LAME, GNU...
[02:37] <Optikal___> How can you safely create a linux partition to run ubuntu on from WinXP?
[02:37] <I-kido> !xorg.conf
[02:37] <Rocket_37> Well, if wine is not an emulator, then what is it?
[02:37] <Flannel> Rocket_37: it's a compatability layer.  Basically, your program says "call this windows API call" and wine says "you really mean /this/ API call"
[02:37] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about xorg.conf - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[02:37] <Flannel> Gunslinger|Deags: you want text mode
[02:37] <Dues> releet
[02:37] <Gunslinger|Deags> flannel ok here it goes
[02:38] <Dues> ok Gunslinger|Deags
[02:38] <Rocket_37> Flannel: Wow. No pun intended.
[02:38] <Dues> do eet

[02:39] <altazor> what it is
[02:39] <Gunslinger|Deags> i didnt know u were an op u helped me install this stuff last  time
[02:39] <dasguy> how big a partition would you guys recomend for installation?
[02:39] <Dues> depends
[02:40] <Dues> what's your HD space?
[02:40] <HymnToLife> dasguy, 10 GB if you want to be confortable for a first install, to fiddle with things
[02:40] <HymnToLife> for a "normal" install, 5 GB is already more than enough
[02:40] <dasguy> 60 and 20
[02:40] <Gunslinger|Deags> ok flannel heres what happened everything just stopped at scanning /cdrom/pool/main/l...
[02:40] <Flannel> Gunslinger|Deags: it'll scan all that stuff for a while, lots of packages.
[02:40] <dasguy> i'll go for 7.5 then :)
[02:41] <dasguy> thanks
[02:41] <Gunslinger|Deags> well i dont even see my processor working
[02:41] <Dues> lol 7.5
[02:41] <Falstius> dasguy: my / (all of my programs and configuration) is 4.9GB and I have a lot of extra software installed.
[02:41] <Gunslinger|Deags> the little light isnt blinking at all
[02:41] <Dues> mine was 40
[02:41] <Dues> when i first used linux
[02:41] <Dues> and i used like 20 GB of it
[02:41] <HymnToLife> Gunslinger|Deags, you've learned the hard way to _always_ check the md5 and burn at _low_ speed :p
[02:41] <Flannel> Gunslinger|Deags: it's mostly CDrom being read, what you might want to do is reboot, and instead of installing, check theCD
[02:41] <Gunslinger|Deags> i burned at 2x
[02:42] <Dues> sif
[02:42] <Dues> i burned at
[02:42] <Dues> 25x

[02:45] <piratemath> does anybody else here use a prism card?

[02:45] <Flannel> Wimpog: you'll have to edit your fstab (/etc/fstab)
[02:45] <Wimpog> Flannel: I'm just repartitioning
[02:45] <[set] > @time NY
[02:45] <HymnToLife> I definitely need to go to bed
[02:45] <[set] > @time NewYork
[02:46] <Gunslinger|Deags> could my laptop be getting too hot?
[02:46] <Wimpog> Flannel: I'm honestly clueless how to edit it, can you give me an example on paritiion /dev/hdd1 and /usr
[02:46] <Flannel> Gunslinger|Deags: probably not.  Do you have another computer/cdrom that you could check the CD with?
