[02:35] <renzo17> ac: i cant remember where but i'm sure in there somewhere is the option to enable/disable the logo splash
[02:35] <ben_underscore> jrib: you're right, my apologies
[02:35] <casio_> the better way to run virtual operating systems: vmware player or virtual box !?! what is your opinion?
[02:35] <steveatlocalhost> sdfcas: damn small linux, Mepis, flubuntu, or a custom ubuntu server install with fluxbox/xfce
[02:35] <kaos_nk> sdfcas: though iirc, fluxbuntu is still in testing
[02:35] <mastroDani> gmenelau, may be it work but it's really slow
[02:35] <mastroDani> gmenelau, *low
[02:35] <bobbob1016> jrib, ben_underscore so I just do "wget filename-on-server -O MyName" right?
[02:35] <steveatlocalhost> ferronica, your saving a file in ubuntu so you can read it in microsoft word?
[02:35] <gmenelau> mastroDani : i dont know what to said about tht
[02:35] <Frosteh> Frogzoo: firewall has an ipsec0 listed under ifconfig out
[02:35] <ferronica> steveatlocalhost: i have one document ,i want to save it. In which format should i save it so that it can be readble and writeable in windows  tooo
[02:35] <steveatlocalhost> ashu18: there should be a recover option. i think so
[02:35] <Frosteh> using external ip and netmask
[02:35] <kaos_nk> sdfcas: take mepis, bases on debian, quite mature
[02:36] <steveatlocalhost> ferronica: .doc
[02:36] <jrib> bobbob1016: I usually put the options first and the url at the end, but that may work too
[02:36] <ferronica> steveatlocalhost: yes right
[02:36] <ben_underscore> bobbob1016: yep
[02:36] <ferronica> steveatlocalhost: by default its .odt
[02:36] <gmenelau> mastroDani : i try to record a sound from a program and nothing
[02:36] <ashu18> ferronica: as steveatlocalhost says, save it in .doc format
[02:36] <bobbob1016> jrib, ben_underscore thanks for the help
[02:36] <steveatlocalhost> ferronica: when you dave, select .doc
[02:36] <sdfcas> thank you all
[02:36] <Frosteh> Frogzoo: here - http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/36312/
[02:36] <kaos_nk> ferronica: best solution, install open office on windows
[02:36] <ashu18> ferronica: it is .odt by default but you can chenge it to .doc without any harm
[02:36] <leafwiz> is there a problem with suspend on a thinkPad r51 ? running gnome / debian etch ?
[02:37] <kaos_nk> ms formats are crap. you get 100kb for 25kb .odt
[02:37] <leafwiz> Mine won't go into suspend
[02:37] <kRush> how do I configure ntpd to work correctly with my pppoe connection? looks like it starts too early and therefore won't bind to ppp0
[02:37] <ashu18> steveatlocalhost: where's the repair option likely to be?
[02:37] <ferronica> ashu18: okay let me try
[02:37] <mastroDani> gmenelau, i don't know what else to try... anyway.. all the thing you have done with alsamixer can be done with gnome-volume-control if you use gnome (ubuntu) or kmix if you use KDE (kubuntu)
[02:38] <steveatlocalhost> ashu18: when you boot from the CD, under start/install ubuntu
[02:38] <ac> renzo17 dont bother too much about it
[02:38] <ticked> good morning all

[02:38] <kaos_nk> yes, hello
[02:38] <ticked> anyone have time for a newbie dual boot question or two?
[02:38] <Frogzoo> Frosteh: but you've never had ipsec on this box?

[02:38] <steveatlocalhost> ticked: i do :)

[02:39] <Frosteh> i've not configured it, not even sure what it does
[02:39] <mastroDani> gmenelau, yes ask
[02:39] <Frogzoo> Frosteh: you're going to need to get better particulars on how you're connecting to the ISP, maybe a call to tech support
[02:39] <nikodemus_> should i worry? "kernel: [  833.464000]  Disabling IRQ #19"
[02:39] <mastroDani> gmenelau, i have no experience with web cams
[02:39] <mastroDani> sorry
[02:40] <mastroDani> gmenelau, may be someone else can help

[02:40] <gmenelau> mastroDani  : ok no problem thanks
[02:40] <Frosteh> right ok
[02:40] <mastroDani> gmenelau, anyway.. your microphone should work
[02:40] <gmenelau> mastroDani  : thanks a lot
[02:40] <ashu18> ferronica: you can also get openoffice or staroffice in your windows...that will put an end to all your worries :)
[02:40] <ticked> i was given some advice, i was told to instal windows on one hard drive, unplug it then setup ubunu on the second drive, i did this, but now i cant get at ubuntu without unplugging the windows drive, i tried F8 which was suggested to me..... no go
[02:40] <mastroDani> gmenelau, it is generally a volume setting problem
[02:40] <gmenelau> i will try to restart and i will se
[02:40] <ferronica> ashu18: error
[02:40] <kitche> nikodemus_, no but you need noirqdebug in your kernel line on grub
[02:40] <ticked> i diddnt want to put grub on the windows drive
[02:40] <mastroDani> gmenelau, i know guys that have a microphone and it works.. but the sound is really really low, and they can't hear it
[02:41] <ferronica> ashu18: this document may contain formatting or ...............
[02:41] <ferronica> ashu18: :(
[02:41] <ticked> the drives are sata
[02:41] <kaos_nk> ferronica, just click yes when that dialog comes, it's standard.
[02:41] <steveatlocalhost> ticked: it doesnt edit the windows drive in any way. if your having trouble, do a re install and then allow it to install grub to wherever it wants to put it
[02:41] <nikodemus_> ok, thanks
[02:41] <ashu18> steveatlocalhost: i can't reinstall now....i will do it next month; i hav limited broadband so all those updates and all are goinna take a hell portion out of that
[02:41] <steveatlocalhost> ticked: its quite safe
[02:41] <gmenelau> mastroDani  : ok i will think something
[02:41] <gmenelau> xexe
[02:41] <phpusmo> can someone help me get the correct drivers for my video card? Here is my lspci info http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/36311/
[02:41] <steveatlocalhost> ashu18: hmm, ok. check out the forums. they could have the answer
[02:41] <gmenelau> crasia
[02:41] <ashu18> ferronica: hmmm....
[02:42] <ferronica> kaos_nk: should i click it yes
[02:42] <kaos_nk> yeah
[02:42] <steveatlocalhost> ashu18: you could reinstall but not update...?
[02:42] <mastroDani> gmenelau, try to play around with gnome-volume-control
[02:42] <ticked> steveatlocalhost:  just plug both drives in and reinstall ubuntu?
[02:42] <kaos_nk> it's a standard question when you save it in doc, ferronica. matter of changing formats
[02:42] <mastroDani> gmenelau, it's the same of working with alsamixer
[02:42] <ferronica> ashu18: sometime i have email some documents to my friends that dont use linux.
[02:42] <renzo17> ac: try running "nvidia-xconfig --logo"   ...............   aprt from that i cant remember the lineto enable it
[02:42] <ashu18> ferronica: yes, click yes
[02:42] <ticked> i have heard that grub can become corrupt easily???
[02:42] <steveatlocalhost> ticked: yes, just plug both in and reinstall. it will detect your drives and will all work perfectly
[02:42] <ferronica> ashu18: okay
[02:42] <gmenelau> i am working in the gamix
[02:43] <kRush> anyone running ntpd on a pppoe connection?
[02:43] <steveatlocalhost> ticked: dont worry about it. its perfectly safe. it only corrupts if you mess with it
[02:43] <gmenelau> where is the ghome-volume
[02:43] <steveatlocalhost> ticked: it doesnt harm your data even if it does corrupt
[02:43] <ashu18> ferronica: ur document size will become larger, nothing else
[02:43] <vader1102> ticked, that is all I have used for the past 4 years. No worries, 4 years no problems with grub
[02:43] <renzo17> gmenelau: in your systray
[02:43] <kitche> ticked, yes since Windows a overwrites the MBR that's only way it can be corrupted
[02:43] <ticked> gotta love an OS where ya can cruise the net while installing it....
[02:43] <kaos_nk> ferronica, about four times larger :P
[02:44] <ticked> k so i am cool since XP is already on the other drive?
[02:44] <steveatlocalhost> ticked: gotta love an OS where you dont get viruses and spyware :D
[02:44] <steveatlocalhost> ticked: and yeah,
[02:44] <steveatlocalhost> ticked: itll all be fine
[02:44] <phpusmo> can someone help me get the correct drivers for my video card? Here is my lspci info http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/36311/
[02:44] <ashu18> ferronica: changing from doc to odt can be a problem (there are some extras in Word) but not the other way! :D
[02:44] <gmenelau> ok
[02:44] <ticked> steveatlocalhost oh yeah that too
[02:44] <ac> hi how do i change the xorg.conf file?? edit then save but it says cant save dont have the permission?!
[02:44] <vader1102> phpusmo, if someone knows, they will let you know, you don't need to repeat
[02:44] <phpusmo> k sorry
[02:44] <steveatlocalhost> ticked :P lol
[02:45] <ferronica> ashu18: windows msoffice documents no problem in linux
[02:45] <ferronica> ashu18: but linux has
[02:45] <kaos_nk> steveatlocalhost: it's not like you can't write viruses for linux, it's just quite pointless
[02:45] <mastroDani> gmenelau, the gnome-volume-control is the graphical tool to set sound volumes of the system.. and staff like this, it's the same of alsamixer, but graphical.. and created for Gnome
[02:45] <renzo17> ac: open the xorg.conf with sudo i.e.    "gksudo gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[02:45] <Vlet> phpusmo: It looks like that uses the "via" driver
[02:45] <ashu18> ferronica: that's what i said
[02:45] <ticked> well guys your gonna see me in here quite a bit, thanks for the info, cant wait till i can help someone out..... i feel like such a newbie... its been along time since i felt like this
[02:45] <phpusmo> yeah
[02:46] <gmenelau> yes
[02:46] <phpusmo> Vlet, I can't seem to find the correct drivers for it
[02:46] <ashu18> ferronica: did it work?
[02:46] <mastroDani> gmenelau, you can launch it by writing gnome-volume-control on the terminal, or right-clicking on the little speaker up-right of your screen and choosing the setting option
[02:46] <ferronica> ashu18: didnt checked it yet
[02:46] <steveatlocalhost> kaos_nk, no, you cant write any that do damage, due to windows users automatically being admin/root, where as linux makes you a normal user.
[02:46] <renzo17> phpusmo: are they not already available in xorg?
[02:46] <ac> renzo17 thanks again ;)
[02:46] <monkeyBox> Is there a compiz-fusion plugin available that will allow me to "tile" windows (eg, horizontally & vertically)?
[02:46] <ferronica> ashu18: just saved
[02:47] <JRDezine__> anyone here got sea monkeys? mine are all dying?
[02:47] <steveatlocalhost> kaos_nk: linux virii only work if your root.
[02:47] <phpusmo> renzo17, I don't know how do I check?
[02:47] <steveatlocalhost> mmmm noodles :D
[02:47] <gmenelau> mastroDani  : i found it i was working with that
[02:47] <ferronica> ashu18: where i can get help regarding HP inkjet cartridge
[02:47] <gmenelau> before
[02:47] <kaos_nk> steveatlocalhost: that's hardly the issue. i work always as root and I've never had a virus
[02:47] <renzo17> phpusmo: run "sudp dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg" and keep defaults all the way till you get to drivers and look for via....if not, vesa may be your best bet
[02:47] <phpusmo> looking for the via s3
[02:47] <[andres] > which is the proper channel to ask questions about gutsy problems?
[02:47] <mastroDani> gmenelau, well you can do all the thing you do with alsamixer there
[02:48] <ferronica> ashu18: yellow color not flowing :(
[02:48] <vader1102> [andres] , ubuntu+1
[02:48] <warbler> !ubuntu+1
[02:48] <ubotu> Gutsy Gibbon is the code name for the next release of Ubuntu (7.10) | (due October 2007) | It is development software, as such unstable, support _only_ in #ubuntu+1
[02:48] <steveatlocalhost> kaos_nk, thats why people dont write many viruses. because only a few people work as root. due to the danger of it
[02:48] <mastroDani> gmenelau, just check all the option related to capture and mic on the preferences
[02:48] <ashu18> ferronica: yellow color might be over...
[02:48] <gmenelau> ok i iwill try everying later
[02:48] <ferronica> ashu18: i just refilled it
[02:48] <gmenelau> thanks time for rest
[02:48] <vader1102> np
[02:48] <gmenelau> mastroDani  : thanks a lot
[02:49] <kaos_nk> steveatlocalhost: it has less to do with root/non-root and more to do with linux's separation of kernel and user space
[02:49] <ticked> oh yeah i guess i should ask, Ubuntu installs over itself alright doesnt it?
[02:49] <Pirate_Hunter> how do i play media in xubuntu? I cnat find restricted codecs
[02:49] <steveatlocalhost> kaos_nk, hmm i see how that makes sense
[02:49] <mastroDani> gmenelau, don't worry.. i hope you can made it work :)
[02:49] <ashu18> ferronica: do u have windows? if yes, plz check whether your printer works alright there
[02:49] <kaos_nk> Priate_Hunter, what kind of media?
[02:49] <IdleOne> !mp3 | Pirate_Hunter
[02:49] <ubotu> Pirate_Hunter: For multimedia issues, this page has useful information: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats - See also http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/desktopguide/C/common-tasks-chap.html - But please use free formats if you can: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FreeFormats
[02:49] <kaos_nk> Pirate_Hunter*
[02:49] <steveatlocalhost> anyone know how to remotely connect to a computer and have it in a window on your desktop? similar to a virtual PC window?
[02:50] <ashu18> ferronica: anyway what model is it?
[02:50] <unimatrix9> he hunts the pirates...
[02:50] <phpusmo> renzo17, k I'm at via for drivers
[02:50] <kaos_nk> MS introduced that concept first with vista, steveatlocalhost.  :P
[02:50] <leladia> pls how do i get my wireless usb adapter to work on ubuntu 6.06
[02:50] <mastroDani> gmenelau, since when you launch arecord try.wav it "seems to record" i think that it work.. but may be, as i told you before.. it's really really low
[02:50] <linux4me> i inherited a ubuntu box and an nmap states the port 22 and 1723 are open for ssh and pptp. where can I find the configuration files for this setup? i need to open another port. iptables -L doesn't list any rules
[02:50] <IdleOne> steveatlocalhost: check out FreeNX
[02:50] <Pirate_Hunter> kaos_nk: (_-_") sorry for the waste of time synaptic came to the rescue
[02:50] <ticked> VNC????
[02:50] <steveatlocalhost> idleone: ty
[02:50] <renzo17> select via, then carry on selecting defaults
[02:50] <kaos_nk> Pirate_Hunter: np :)
[02:50] <phpusmo> renzo17, I see both via and vesa
[02:50] <phpusmo> ok
[02:50] <gmenelau> mastroDani  : what i need to do ?
[02:50] <steveatlocalhost> kaos_nk: i dont understand, they introduced the same concept as linux has in vista? so its nearly as secure?
[02:51] <kaos_nk> steveatlocalhost: before vista they had virtuelly no separation at all.
[02:51] <unimatrix9> ledadia , setup your network, it should show up as rausb , or something like that
[02:51] <steveatlocalhost> kaos_nk ahh i understand
[02:51] <renzo17> phpusmo: try via, first, if it doesnt work, then revert to vesa.......out of curisity, which driver was already selected when you got there?
[02:51] <kaos_nk> well, in vista even programmes ran by admin cannot write into the 'kernel space'.
[02:51] <kaos_nk> run*
[02:51] <Ott1> Hello everybody Can anyone help me to get apple aplications into my Ubuntu???
[02:51] <phpusmo> renzo17, I don't know via I guess?
[02:51] <Vlet> linux4me: that just means that port 22 and 1723 are listening, there could be no firewall rules in place
[02:51] <kaos_nk> it means it's more secure, yes, but only means MS needed 15 years to realise that:)
[02:51] <Vlet> linux4me: what do you need to do?
[02:51] <UNDERsoN> Hi how can I understand have I a bluetoth on my noutbook or not?
[02:51] <kitche> Ott1, you can't from my understanding at least natively
[02:52] <renzo17> phpusmo: there should be a start/dot inside of square brackets next to the one selected
[02:52] <ashu18> ferronica: i have to go now, mom'll wallop me! anyway, consult your HP dealer...maybe the refilling wasn't perfect or something
[02:52] <zando> UNDERsoN, try with lspci
[02:52] <renzo17> phpusmo: ^star
[02:52] <mastroDani> gmenelau, enable all the option for capturing with mic, and raise all volume for capture
[02:52] <Kworth> is there a way to get the keyring manager to run with firefox
[02:52] <mastroDani> then raise your speakers volume and your "master" volume
[02:52] <UNDERsoN> zando lspci | grep Blue ?
[02:52] <mastroDani> (and your pcm volume)
[02:52] <Ott1> I cant install packages from apple, and I want some of their software get to my PC
[02:52] <gmenelau> mastroDani  : i will try
[02:52] <mastroDani> than try to record something.. speak, tap and blow on the microphone
[02:53] <unimatrix9> ledadia, you can check if its seen , by plugging it in and then open terminal on gnome and type the command dmesg , should be on the end of the line some where...
[02:53] <ashu18> ferronica: i have an hp psc all-in-one 1410 and it's very troublesome too! :(
[02:53] <mastroDani> gmenelau,
[02:53] <zando> UNDERsoN, try only lspci
[02:53] <phpusmo> renzo17, via has a black vertical recangle next to it and vesa has a grayish vertical recatangle
[02:53] <Vlet> Kworth: what do you mean by 'run'? Doesn't the keyring manager 'run' every time an application tries to access it?
[02:53] <linux4me> i need to open port 25 so we can use gmail smtp relay service for email alerts
[02:53] <kaos_nk> steveatlocalhost: it has more to do with the way the system is built. you don't have a real equivalent in linux to '.exe', every file can be executed if chmod'd correctly. that's also one of the points
[02:53] <renzo17> phpusmo: sounds like via was already selected in which case you are already using it and have the best driver for the job
[02:53] <mastroDani> gmenelau, if you still can't hear any sound.. try with another microphone if you have a friend with a microphone ask him if he can give it to you for some try
[02:54] <Kworth> Vlet: my firefox doesn't access it, it saves it passwords somewhere else
[02:54] <steveatlocalhost> kaos_nk i am starting to understand now
[02:54] <leladia> i tried all of that and its still not working
[02:54] <gmenelau> ok
[02:54] <phpusmo> oh
[02:54] <leladia> what i have done so far is installing the driver for the adapter
[02:54] <kaos_nk> steveatlocalhost: it's like windows 'invites' people to write viruses
[02:54] <mody_> Hi all, I am new, and have ubuntu installation problem - can somebody help me
[02:54] <Vlet> Kworth: ahh, I see - you want firefox to store it's passwords in the keyring manager. Nope, it doesn't do that :(
[02:54] <renzo17> !ask
[02:54] <ubotu> Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[02:54] <incorrect> is there a similar app to firestarter, but that will allow me to go to an extra level of detail
[02:54] <leladia> i am using ndiswrapper
[02:55] <mastroDani> gmenelau, i can say you the capture interface in your audio card has been found and configured
[02:55] <renzo17> mody_: welcome
[02:55] <Kworth> Vlet: is there an other password application that is compatible with firefox?
[02:55] <steveatlocalhost> kaos_nk LOL
[02:55] <kaos_nk> :P
[02:55] <Kworth> !password
[02:55] <apo_> you don't have a real equivalent in linux to '.exe', < How about ELF?
[02:55] <ubotu> Forgot your password? Boot into recovery mode. What's the root password? See !sudo. Don't see *** in password prompts? That's normal. Sudo doesn't ask for your password? It remembers you for several minutes. Please use strong passwords, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/StrongPasswords
[02:55] <UNDERsoN> zando http://pastebin.com/d116c18fd
[02:55] <otto_> help, my computer does not output any sound@!
[02:55] <mastroDani> gmenelau, if it doesn't work 2 reasons can be: low signal from the microphone (so low you can't hear it) or buggy driver
[02:55] <kaos_nk> apo_, what's ELF?
[02:55] <mastroDani> gmenelau, as for i know
[02:55] <mody_> renzo17, I have installed ubuntu on my XP machine to try it for the first time and ...
[02:55] <leladia> when i type in the command "ndiswrapper -l" i am told that the driver is installed and hardware is found
[02:55] <otto_> volume is on max
[02:55] <mastroDani> gmenelau, good luck :)
[02:56] <apo_> http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Executable_and_Linkable_Format @ kaos_nk  ;)
[02:56] <Vlet> Kworth: Firefox is not designed to 'outsource' is password storage. That would require some hacking.
[02:56] <renzo17> otto_: does the command "lspci -v" give any info about what audio chipset you have?
[02:56] <rockzman> Can someone analyze a pastebin and help me ? I am tryin to install OpenChrome xorg driver
[02:57] <leladia> however the adapter light never comes on and when i type "ifconfig" or iwconfig" i don't see wlan0
[02:57] <zando> UNDERsoN, you don't have bluetooth
[02:57] <Kworth> Vlet: and can I enter manually passwords into password save?
[02:57] <kaos_nk> apo_: never heard of it, what's the difference between that and a +x's .out file?
[02:57] <otto_> Intel Corporation 82801DB/DBL/DBM
[02:57] <kaos_nk> +x'd
[02:57] <apo_> .out?
[02:57] <kaos_nk> what cc produces
[02:58] <kaos_nk> compiled files, unlinked yet:P
[02:58] <mody_> renzo17, I have 4 gaga empty on my drive f - then I have tried to install ubutu to this 4 gegas but it seems I have formated the whole partition - how to get back my data on the formated partition...
[02:58] <Vlet> Kworth: hmm... I doubt it... if you really want to investigate, #firefox on irc.mozilla.org would know better
[02:58] <apo_> The a.out files cc produces are actually elf files, afaik
[02:58] <apo_> Ah

[02:58] <Anomaly> Anyone know if TorrentFlux is dead?
[02:58] <Vlet> Kworth: It would make sense for it to store it's passes in the keyring manager though :-/
[02:58] <unimatrix9> mody_ you would need third party tools for that, like for example "hirens boot cd "
[02:58] <renzo17> mody_: if you formatted over something i dont think you can ever get the data back

[03:01] <leladia> can we chat privately?
[03:02] <kitche> kaos_nk, if you say so since talking about viruses and such is considered off topic but alsa I'll let an op tell you next time
[03:02] <kaos_nk> kitche: do so. go ahead and threat people who don't conform to your worldview :P
[03:02] <ticked> one more Grub question,   so, if i put both drives in and reinstall Ubunto, grub will setup on the windows drive, then if for some reason grub gets messed up i wont be able to boot into either right?? if that happens i should be able to boot with ERD and rescue the data off the windows drive (its partitioned) and save the stuff to the second partition, then reinstall both OSs and all will be cool and groovy again right????
[03:03] <Kworth> I need an password manager that works together with Firefox - anyone a clue?
[03:03] <steveatlocalhost> ticked: no, if grub corrects, reinstall ubuntu and it will allow you access to both again
[03:03] <ticked> if i mess up the windows drive and loose the stuff there AGAIN, the wife is gonna kill me!!!!
[03:03] <ticked>  cool
[03:03] <steveatlocalhost> ticked: grub wont delete anything.
[03:03] <kaos_nk> ticked, you mean drive or partition?
[03:03] <steveatlocalhost> kaos_nk he means drive
[03:04] <kaos_nk> ah
[03:04] <ticked> kaos_nk....drive
[03:04] <kaos_nk> so you have two hard drives, and you can get to boot both in grub?
[03:04] <otto_> renzo17: anything?
[03:04] <kaos_nk> can't*
[03:05] <Lustblader> i need some basic help with wine.. i have installed it using synaptic.. now how to use it????
[03:05] <otto_> Lustblader: wine app.exe
[03:05] <unimatrix9> ledadia : type lsusb ( gnome terminal ) and see what it say's
[03:05] <DuClare> Lustblader, wine filename.exe
[03:05] <otto_> in clo
[03:05] <otto_> cli
[03:05] <steveatlocalhost> lustblader: wine "/location to exe/file.exe"
[03:06] <otto_> anyone, what to do when you get acces denied for your sound card?
[03:06] <steveatlocalhost> lustblader: check out winedoors too. google it
[03:06] <Lustblader> thx all
[03:06] <ticked> i tried installin Ubunu on a second partition the other day(on one drive), it took the whole drive,killing my partitions, once the wife would talk to me again, she bout me a second drive to put ubuntu on, now i a just a little paranoid. soon as i get her turned onto Ubunto i wont have to worry about this no more
[03:06] <Lustblader> am gonna try it now
[03:06] <unimatrix9> ledadia , i give you the site for setting it up  https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Driver/Ndiswrapper#head-9b45b4bb3e9239b80223cd0f9a653835851b9292
[03:06] <ticked> bout= bought
[03:07] <kaos_nk> and you have nothing on the other drive?
[03:07] <Vlet> Kworth: I already told you. there is none. wirefox was not designed to outsource it's password storage. If you need further info, go to #firefox on irc.mozilla.org
[03:07] <Vlet> s/wirefox/Firefox
[03:07] <Kworth> there must be a way to save them extern
[03:07] <sanguinarius> hello all
[03:07] <Kworth> or to at least insert them out of another tool automatically
[03:08] <Paddy_EIRE> Vlet, If he uses FEBE then the password cache is copied over
[03:08] <rockzman> Can someone analyze a pastebin and help me ? I am tryin to install OpenChrome xorg driver
[03:08] <mody_> Hi all, any body can help me to recover my fornatted partition during my installation
[03:08] <steveatlocalhost> mody_ look on google. it will save alot of time for you
[03:09] <ticked> kaos_nk:  i have that harddrive setup and partitioned again, and got a second harddrive on here to install ubunu with, someone suggested setup the winXP drive, then unplug it and put ubuntu on the second harddrive. then i would be able to get at the dual boot from F8 but that diddnt work
[03:09] <ticked> am i making sense yet>?
[03:09] <steveatlocalhost> ticked i understand. i have had the same issue before
[03:09] <Kworth> ok so which is the best password manager I can get for gnome? with gui?
[03:10] <ticked>  steveatlocalhost how long before you wife talked to you again LOL
[03:10] <Lustblader> !pastebin
[03:10] <ubotu> 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 (make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the #ubuntu channel topic)
[03:10] <Kworth> is not anyone using a password manager her?
[03:11] <steveatlocalhost> ticked: haha im not married im 15 xD but i wasnt happy when i formatted my XP. you just have to make sure you set up partitions right and its all good
[03:11] <kitche> ticked, if the first hard drive is unplugged grub won't know that Windows is installed so of course you wouldn't be able to pick XP
[03:11] <rockzman> Can someone analyze a pastebin and help me ? I am tryin to install OpenChrome xorg driver this is the pastebin http://pastebin.com/m33855240
[03:12] <steveatlocalhost> ticked: you could always just go sudo gedit /boot/grub/menu.lst on ubuntu and add an entry for windows xp on (hd0,0)
[03:12] <ticked> steveatlocalhost  thats why she bout me the second hard drive..... as long as i dont kill windows on her again i am good
[03:12] <steveatlocalhost> brown_cat :D haha
[03:12] <Paddy_EIRE> !repeat
[03:12] <ubotu> Don't feel ignored and repeat your question quickly; if nobody knows your answer, nobody will answer you. You can search https://help.ubuntu.com or http://wiki.ubuntu.com while you wait. Also see !patience
[03:12] <brown_cat> :p
[03:12] <Lustblader> hooray.. i installed foobar using wine.. now is there anyway to make a short cut to run it???
[03:12] <steveatlocalhost> ticked: lol, are you on ubuntu now?
[03:12] <ticked> yup
[03:12] <steveatlocalhost> ticked: type sudo gedit /etc/grub/menu.lst in a terminal
[03:12] <kaos_nk> yeah, just have windows connected and add it to grup's menu.lst
[03:13] <kaos_nk> grub*
[03:13] <steveatlocalhost> ticked: then add an entry at the bottom called XP, copy everything from one of the ubuntu options, then replace (hdX,X) with (hd0.0)
[03:13] <ticked> yeah i gotta reboot to reconnect the windows drive, so i am just gonna do that and reinstall Ubunto
[03:13] <Lustblader> http://www.gnu.org/software/grub/manual/html_node/Installing-GRUB-natively.html   <--install grub afresh
[03:13] <steveatlocalhost> ticked good luck
[03:14] <steveatlocalhost> brown cat: how is it doing lol
[03:14] <zhanx> ok fresh install has issues with fonts for openoffice. - unable to write to cache and it prevents me from installing packages
[03:14] <ticked> well there is nothing for me to lose for her on the windows hard drive now LOL so the worst that is gonna happen is a whole lotta setting up and reinstall ing AGAIN
[03:14] <steveatlocalhost> ticked: lol, good luck
[03:14] <Pirate_Hunter> cna sun java be installed in Xubuntu cause i think the installation has frozen or is it supposed to take this long to prepare the app?
[03:15] <kitche> Pirate_Hunter, is asks you to accept the license
[03:15] <ticked> well i will pop back in after the reinstall and give ya an update
[03:15] <ticked> cya
[03:15] <Frogzoo> Pirate_Hunter: has to dl first
[03:15] <kitche> Pirate_Hunter, you have to accept the license in Apt for it to continue which is where it might be at
[03:16] <Lustblader> i am unable to make foobar play any sounds using wine.. should i do anything more???
[03:16] <Paddy_EIRE> Lustblader, yeah use amarok
[03:16] <Paddy_EIRE> :P
[03:16] <zackattack> can anyone recommend a good IMAP server?
[03:16] <Pirate_Hunter> Frogzoo, kitche: it didnt scroll down automatically, i had to press enter a couple of times to read that and type "yes". Now thats annoying :
[03:16] <steveatlocalhost> lustblader: check your winecfg (type winecfg in terminal) then change sound driver to OSS
[03:16] <Lustblader> i already do use amarok... n thx steveatlocalhost.. lemme try
[03:17] <kitche> Pirate_Hunter, of course it won't you have to scroll down yourself so it looks like you read it :)
[03:17] <sky_> quale scheda wireless 802.11g PCI (interna) mi consigliate?

[03:18] <zhanx> what is the synaptic package manager

[03:19] <incorrect> does anyone know of a tool that will help me build my firewall rules
[03:19] <kitche> smash, there isn't one
[03:19] <kitche> !sudo | smash
[03:19] <ubotu> smash: sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for all information.
[03:19] <renzo17> zhanx: yeah
[03:20] <Frogzoo> !firestarter | incorrect:
[03:20] <ubotu> incorrect:: Ubuntu, like any other linux distribution, has firewall capabilities built-in. The firewall is managed using the 'iptables' command (see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/IptablesHowTo), or GUI applications such as Firestarter (Gnome) or Guarddog (KDE).
[03:20] <zhanx> cool thanks
[03:20] <Frogzoo> !info firestart | incorrect
[03:20] <ubotu> incorrect: Package firestart does not exist in feisty, feisty-seveas

[03:42] <valaiya> how to install mplayer, can any1 help me?
[03:42] <IdleOne> !mplayer
[03:42] <ubotu> mplayer is a media player. It resides in the mutiverse repository and can easily be installed via applications -> add/remove. For codecs try !codecs
[03:42] <steveatlocalhost> valaiya look for it in the add/remove
[03:42] <unimatrix9> Pirate_Hunter , did you try an other player?
[03:43] <Pirate_Hunter> unimatrix9: in Xubuntu only have gxine and that wont cut it
[03:43] <steveatlocalhost> Pirate_Hunter, run Rythmbox in the terminal, by typing Rythmbox. then paste the output when it dies
[03:44] <Pirate_Hunter> steveatlocalhost: if i do that it just opens up rhythmbox? nothing else
[03:44] <unimatrix9> gzxine is an completly different thing from rythmbox
[03:44] <steveatlocalhost> Pirate_Hunter: it opens rythmbox, and tells you the error when it crashes. the error will be in the terminal you typed rythmbox into
[03:45] <Pirate_Hunter> steveatlocalhost: wait im wrong here it is: rhythmbox
[03:45] <Pirate_Hunter> /bin/sh: /usr/bin/esd: not found
[03:45] <Pirate_Hunter> /bin/sh: /usr/bin/esd: not found

[03:49] <Thunor> Hey, I want to extract something using the default extractor prog, but it says I have to be root, how do I change to root for a folder?
[03:49] <freelame> i have 2 hd
[03:50] <whonicca> anyone know why a video card would work on one computer and not another, both support agp 2x/4x
[03:50] <steveatlocalhost> chikita: hmm, ok ill have a google for you
[03:50] <steveatlocalhost> freelame: yeah?
[03:50] <chikita> ty

[03:50] <DjViper> whonicca: does one of them have onboard gfx ?
[03:50] <renzo17> Thunor: nautilus scripts may help, failing that just run "gksudo nautilus"
[03:51] <Yoric> hi
[03:51] <steveatlocalhost> chikita: doom 3 works under linux natively
[03:51] <whonicca> DjViper, no, neither do
[03:51] <marko-_-> you whoever helped me that didn't changed the problem you know i "hide" the toolbar in amarok
[03:51] <Thunor> renzo17: Okay.
[03:51] <marko-_-> and don'+t know how to put it back:D
[03:51] <steveatlocalhost> chikita: if he has it
[03:51] <Yoric> Today, my Evolution is freezing at startup.
[03:51] <Yoric> Does anyone have an idea on how to read my mail ?
[03:51] <DjViper> whonicca: could be something wrong with one of the MB's then, or some IRQ conflict maybe, tho I doubt that the case
[03:51] <steveatlocalhost> freelame: so whats the issue
[03:51] <whonicca> DjViper, yeah, i have to use this older video card on the computer that doesnt take the newer one
[03:52] <IdleOne> Yoric: check your ISP website if you are using isp email
[03:52] <unimatrix9> Pirate_Hunter , look at your install and see if gstreamer....-esd is installed
[03:52] <marko-_-> does anyone know how to get the toolbar in amarok
[03:52] <marko-_-> back?
[03:52] <Thunor> renzo17: it gave me this error: Couldn't display "/usr/share/doc/flightgear/Aircraft/f16_20060619.zip"
[03:52] <DjViper> whonicca: does the card require external power?
[03:52] <Yoric> IdleOne: not feasible, unfortunately.
[03:52] <whonicca> DjViper, no, i just plug it into my other computer and it works
[03:52] <surjagain> steve: i'm back
[03:52] <rogerio> alguem sabe como eu fao pra tornar meu ubuntu conectavel por rede sem fio ?
[03:52] <whonicca> but on the p3 computer i just have a black screen
[03:52] <DjViper> whonicca: yes, but there might be an internal 12v connector
[03:52] <IdleOne> Yoric: use a different mail program
[03:52] <Thunor> renzo17: I think I figured it out, thanks.
[03:52] <DjViper> oh.. p3
[03:52] <steveatlocalhost> surjagain: cool, how did it go
[03:52] <DjViper> nevermind
[03:52] <renzo17> Thunor: congrats
[03:53] <whonicca> its a nvidia 57000 le
[03:53] <surjagain> tried reinstalling 7.04 but i get the same error 18 message
[03:53] <unimatrix9> black screen is so cool
[03:53] <DjViper> whonicca: wait.. p3 with agp?
[03:53] <whonicca> DjViper, yes
[03:53] <Thunor> renzo17: Thanks a bunch =)
[03:53] <surjagain> :(
[03:53] <whonicca> trying to install it for a better ubuntu experience =)
[03:53] <steveatlocalhost> surjagain: hmm. i honestly dont have a clue... :(
[03:53] <DjViper> whonicca: hmm okay
[03:53] <Waka_Waka_Waka> With the GNOME Panels when you select the option to have them hide themselves they always seem to have at a min 5 pixels on the screen can anyone tell me how to change that
[03:53] <whonicca> DjViper, could it be the power supply?
[03:54] <surjagain> guess i'll get any cd and try it out
[03:54] <DjViper> whonicca: maybe
[03:54] <surjagain> another*
[03:54] <steveatlocalhost> sujagain: its grub. i dont understand what could be going wrong though :(
[03:54] <renzo17> whonicca: did you switch the bios to use agp instead of onbaord (older mobos do not automatically switch it for you)
[03:54] <hanuman> hehe
[03:54] <whonicca> but i did unplug one hard drive to see if that was case, not knowing if a hard drive uses more wattage than a video card though, still didnt work
[03:54] <surjagain> i made sure it installed on hd0
[03:55] <jgenussr> Hi, I just completed an automatic update from  2.6.15-28-686 to  2.6.15-29-686 and am now can't mount the / filesystem,  I can still mount usint <IP_ADDRESS>.  How can I fix this?
[03:55] <whonicca> renzo17, it doesnt have an onboard video, im currently using an older agp video card on it
[03:55] <surjagain> the installer should have had specific instruction on where to install it
[03:55] <eevar2> possible to tell from this -- http://rafb.net/p/S5uala18.html -- whether I have hardware raid or just 2 discs of which one isn't even mounted?
[03:55] <renzo17> whonicca: when does the black screen kick in? right from power on or from when ubuntu starts loading?
[03:56] <surjagain> checking out more documentation now
[03:56] <steveatlocalhost> surjagain :( i dont know what to do. have you asked on the forum?
[03:56] <freelame> ho can help me with grub?
[03:56] <Jowi> jgenussr, simple solution: use the older kernel. hard solution: recompile latest kernel with the modules you need (hopefully that works since it can also be a bug in one of the modules)
[03:56] <Arkkis> so, how far away do you think gutsy is from being released?
[03:56] <surjagain> steve: will do it now
[03:56] <renzo17> !gutsy
[03:56] <ubotu> Gutsy Gibbon is the code name for the next release of Ubuntu (7.10) | (due October 2007) | It is development software, as such unstable, support _only_ in #ubuntu+1
[03:56] <eevar2> if not, any suggestions on how i'd find out?
[03:56] <whonicca> renzo17, funny thing u say that cause i am also having a problem with the older agp card that works, when ubuntu starts up i get a black screen all the way until the login screen loads up
[03:56] <Jowi> jgenussr, newest kernel version is not always the best one.
[03:56] <Arkkis> renzo17, thanks
[03:56] <surjagain> thanks for helping though
[03:56] <whonicca> renzo17, but with the newer video card its as soon as i power up the machine and i dont get any video at all
[03:57] <renzo17> whonicca: if it fails when the login screen loads up then it is to do with the driver selected in xorg.conf
[03:57] <setuid> Can someone tell me how to fix the broken Feisty installer?
[03:57] <surjagain> see you all later
[03:57] <whonicca> no its a black screen until the login screen loads up
[03:57] <jgenussr> Ok, should I wait until a new version is available and remove this one from the boot process.
[03:57] <setuid> I have 200M /boot as ext2, 90GiB / as XFS, 3GiB linux-swap, and it keep saying I can't have XFS on /boot
[03:57] <whonicca> maybe no framebuffer support?
[03:57] <setuid> I've partitioned and formatted manually outside the installer, and it still does it
[03:57] <Jowi> jgenussr, sounds like a good idea.
[03:57] <setuid> I can't skip over this step and leave the partitions as they are, it wont' let me
[03:58] <setuid> And Gutsy is not an option, because it ships with a broken wireless layer and NetworkManager
[03:58] <vladuz976> I cannot watch dvds, xine says"the source can't be read or the source doesn't contain data"
[03:58] <jgenussr> thanks, I will do this, bye
[03:58] <renzo17> whonicca: ahhhh, i see, now that is weird...........would be a framebuffer issue yes, but i'm surprised if any card doesnt natively support framebuffer, so sounds more like a hardware issue
[03:58] <whonicca> renzo17, i can see grub, but after that i dont see the splash screen with the orange block in the bar going from side to side
[03:58] <Moduliz0r> When will Ubuntu support nVidia 8600?
[03:58] <Arkkis> could someone possibly help me guiding how to recompile my current feisty? I've tried three times with different howto's but always faced problems. The reason I'm trying to compile it, is because I'd like to be able to play stepmania, but the kernel has a bug (fixable with two added lines) that prevents me from using my usb dance mat.
[03:58] <carignou> hello
[03:58] <whonicca> renzo17, yeah i think its a crappy card, thats why i want to get this extra nvidia one i have laying around working on it
[03:59] <renzo17> vladuz976: you need the dvd codec! its in automatix
[03:59] <setuid> Moduliz0r: You mean when will NVidia support Ubuntu?
[03:59] <renzo17> !dvd
[03:59] <ubotu> For playing DVD, see http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/desktopguide/C/video.html - "libdvdcss2" can be found at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/SeveasPackages - Try k9copy (available in !Universe) for backing up DVDs
[03:59] <Moduliz0r> setuid: Yeh, that way then
[03:59] <setuid> Moduliz0r: Have you asked them?
[03:59] <Arkkis> Moduliz0r, ask nvidia :)
[03:59] <Frosteh> do we have any ubuntu network gurus here?
[03:59] <renzo17> whonicca: so what is the model of the one you want working?
[03:59] <IdleOne> !automatix
[03:59] <ubotu> Automatix2 is a block of code which attempts to install some software.  When it fails and breaks systems, we don't provide support for it.  A creditable analysis from a debian/ubuntu developer is here - http://mjg59.livejournal.com/77440.html (Additional information: /msg ubotu worksforme)
[03:59] <Frosteh> need help with something
[03:59] <vladuz976> renzo17, thanks
[04:00] <Pici> vladuz976: read above about automatix please.
[04:00] <Moduliz0r> sorry about that
[04:00] <Moduliz0r> i'm using cgi:irc :P
[04:00] <Arkkis> Moduliz0r, there's nvidia driver open source  project going on, might also be worth checking
[04:00] <renzo17> vladuz976: note IdleOne / ubotu message....use !ask instead
[04:00] <renzo17> !ask
[04:00] <ubotu> Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[04:00] <renzo17> vladuz976: i mean !dvd

[04:00] <phoenix__>  dear folks, I try since several hours to no success, for something rather simple, I like to print from OpenOffice to my HPLJ4P, where the first page is from tray one and any other from tray 2, I made all the needed settings in the document, but the switch to the second tray does not happen, though I can print the whole document to any of the two trays in whole.
[04:01] <ticked> its alive
[04:01] <Moduliz0r> setuid could you say that again
[04:01] <carignou> Is there a way to suppress a package without following the dependencies ?
[04:01] <genii> I dunno why they recommend k9copy all the time
[04:01] <zpeef> Can anyone help me switch my desktop resolution from 1024x768 to 1280x1024? It's not in the list in the interface and that makes me complete lost.
[04:01] <setuid> Say what again?
[04:01] <setuid> The problem with hardware not working is *NEVER* a fault of Linux
[04:01] <renzo17> whonicca: that should be a perfectly fine card on ubuntu..........so.........with that card, you power on, you see grub.....then black screen.....then login screen appears? can you log into gnome?
[04:01] <setuid> Its 100% vendor issues
[04:02] <setuid> If vendors had specs, docs, and provided sample hardware to test, debug and develop against... everything would be supported.
[04:02] <Moduliz0r> I'll annoy nVidia sometime later then >.<
[04:02] <whonicca> renzo17, no, with this card i dont get any video at all, from power on
[04:02] <steveatlocalhost> zpeef: is your video card an intel?
[04:02] <LinAsH> carignou, that's the default behavior
[04:02] <setuid> Don't financially support vendors who don't support your OS of choice
[04:02] <whonicca> renzo17, meanwhile i can plug it in another computer and it works
[04:02] <renzo17> whonicca: and you say it works in another pc?
[04:02] <zpeef> steveatlocalhost: no it's GeForce 6800gt
[04:02] <Moduliz0r> setuid: I needed an 8600 because I wanted to run Bioshock
[04:03] <steveatlocalhost> zpeef: have you added 1280*1024 to your xorg.conf?
[04:03] <setuid> Is that a Linux game or application?
[04:03] <whonicca> renzo17, yes works on another pc
[04:03] <renzo17> whonicca: i have no idea to be honest in that case. i suggest maybe checking your bios settings

[04:03] <Moduliz0r> it's a Windows game
[04:03] <setuid> Then you should run Windows
[04:03] <zpeef> steveatlocalhost: I just installed this and who no idea how to do that
[04:03] <zpeef> have*
[04:03] <qsrv> which of the LC_ settings controls the user interface language?
[04:03] <carignou> LinAsH, how can i set it differently then ?
[04:03] <repetoire> Hello, I am running a fairly new laptop, Zepto boot)
[04:03] <Moduliz0r> I do run Windows!
[04:03] <whonicca> renzo17, yeah ill give it another look, only way to do so though is with the older video card plugged in
[04:03] <setuid> Perfect!
[04:04] <steveatlocalhost> zpeef: in a terminal (applications>accessories>terminal) type: sudo gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[04:04] <Moduliz0r> but I was hoping to dual boot Ubuntu, but I can't. I used to be able to with my crappy ATI block
[04:04] <steveatlocalhost> zpeef: it must be X11 not x11
[04:04] <renzo17> whonicca: lol, must be tedious
[04:04] <NET||abuse> what is this?? "UDF-fs: No VRS found"   I try to just stick in a cd that was burned on windows, and i get that in dmesg
[04:05] <repetoire> Hello, I am running a fairly new laptop, Zepto 6625WD, Whenever I try to start the 6.06 or the 7.04 livecd it fails... I cannot even make it past the boot
[04:05] <setuid> Moduliz0r: I'd talk to Nvidia about that.
[04:05] <Kworth> can anyone recommend an online banking software with hbci to me?
[04:05] <setuid> Kworth: What is hbci?
[04:05] <repetoire> 6.06 said there was something wrong with the X Window System...
[04:05] <Kworth> setuid: its an online banking standard protocol
[04:06] <Moduliz0r> setuid: I will, i'll get in contact with them sometime soon.
[04:06] <Jowi> !alternate | repetoire
[04:06] <setuid> Kworth: Did you try freshmeat.net?
[04:06] <ubotu> repetoire: The Alternate CD (available as of Dapper) is the classical text-mode installation CD. Use it if you wish to upgrade via CD, or for an "expert" mode install. For normal installs, use the Desktop CD, which is also a "Live" CD - See also !Minimal
[04:06] <setuid> Moduliz0r: Or buy a card that is supported, or try the OSS nvidia driver
[04:06] <Kworth> setuid: I tried a few of the softwares there , but I didn't find a good one yet
[04:06] <qsrv> which of the LC_ settings controls the user interface language?
[04:06] <setuid> Moduliz0r: Google for 'nvidia' + 'nouveau'
[04:06] <setuid> Kworth: I mean search freshmeat.net for hbci
[04:07] <setuid> Kworth: http://en.opensuse.org/SDB:Home_Banking_with_Linux
[04:07] <Jowi> repetoire, if the live cd's fail the alternate cd is a good alternative. it is not a live cd but is not harder to use.
[04:07] <repetoire> Jowi: How is that going to help me? I have the right dvds, and it boots find on another computer, not this new laptop
[04:07] <Moduliz0r> setuid: I'm not buying a new card, only got this one the other day and I am not made of money as much as I would like to be, I'll wait for nVidia to support Linux and then I'll try the release that likes the card...
[04:08] <vladuz976> i installed automatix and i still cannot watch dvds.what could be wrong
[04:08] <repetoire> Jowi:  I'll try
[04:08] <defrysk> vladuz976, automatix is whats wrong
[04:08] <vladuz976> i get the dvd menu, but i can't select anything.
[04:08] <vladuz976> defrysk, so what can I do?
[04:08] <defrysk> vladuz976, dunno , ask the automatix people
[04:08] <brett_h> how can I see what a package I have installed provided, and do the reverse (what package did this file come from)?
[04:08] <defrysk> vladuz976, automatix is not supported here
[04:08] <vladuz976> defrysk, so how do you watch dvds in ubuntu
[04:09] <defrysk> !dvd | vladuz976
[04:09] <ubotu> vladuz976: For playing DVD, see http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/desktopguide/C/video.html - "libdvdcss2" can be found at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/SeveasPackages - Try k9copy (available in !Universe) for backing up DVDs
[04:09] <mapp> how can i change a password in a script, user password
[04:09] <Jowi> repetoire, yeah. there's nothing wrong with the cd itself. it is probably some hardware in your new machine that the livecd can't handle properly. the alternate (text based) cd have an easier time with some computers (including a friend of mine VAIO laptop)
[04:09] <vladuz976> defrysk, i just wanna be able to watch dvd, doesn't matter how
[04:09] <juan_> my nvidia drivers arnt the right version for my kernel modules but theyre both installed from official repo, and i cant figure out how to get them to be the same version
[04:09] <renzo17> repetoire: could be a case of shoddy DSDT or bios settings, for my laptop (Evesham) i had to do random stuff in bios like disabling "legacy usb support" and enabling "SMU".........also, anyone actually know what SMU is?

[04:11] <regis_> anandanbu, mabe with growisofs?
[04:11] <[-clever-] `ca> Frogzoo: i also recently had apt-get install a new kernel
[04:11] <n0u> anandanbu: mkisofs
[04:11] <[-clever-] `ca> id say just selecting an older kernel in grub would 'fix' it for now

[04:12] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about provides - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[04:12] <LordlLnux> how are the best rss feed reader for ubuntu ?
[04:12] <ari_stress> anandanbu: dd if=/dev/cdrom of=fileiso.iso is enough
[04:12] <genii> anandanbu: The way ari_stress described works just fine

[04:13] <freelame> i have 2 hd. in the first i have win me and win xp in the second i have linux. i have formatted win me partition (hda1) and now i can't run win xp. i have changed grub's menu.lst file from hd(0,0) to hd(0,1), but nothing.
[04:13] <vladuz976> i followed the guide on the ubuntu wiki and I still cannot watch dvds. source can't be read is what I keep getting. if anybody knows a solution to this please let me know, too

[04:14] <[-clever-] `ca> Frogzoo: older kernel loading...
[04:14] <Frosteh> im so frustrated right now, grrrrrrrrr
[04:14] <repetoire> !alternate
[04:14] <ubotu> The Alternate CD (available as of Dapper) is the classical text-mode installation CD. Use it if you wish to upgrade via CD, or for an "expert" mode install. For normal installs, use the Desktop CD, which is also a "Live" CD - See also !Minimal
[04:14] <ari_stress> Frosteh: what happens?
[04:14] <repetoire> !minimal
[04:14] <ubotu> The Minimal CD image is very small in size, and it downloads most packages from the Internet during installation, allowing you to select only those you want (the installer is like the one on the !Alternate CD). See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/MinimalCD
[04:14] <Frosteh> Ubuntu happened!
[04:14] <freelame> i have 2 hd. in the first i have win me and win xp in the second i have linux. i have formatted win me partition (hda1) and now i can't run win xp. i have changed grub's menu.lst file from hd(0,0) to hd(0,1), but nothing.
[04:14] <Frosteh> :(
[04:14] <ari_stress> Frosteh: what about ubuntu?
[04:15] <[-clever-] `ca> fredddy: hda1 is (hd0,0)
[04:15] <Frosteh> Im having major network problems for something that should be easy
[04:15] <freelame> i'm seriusly think about suicide! :(
[04:15] <Kworth> does anyone here use aqbanking, I need someone to help me set it up
[04:15] <bartekJoJoM> who use LumaQQ?
[04:15] <Moduliz0r> freelame: I think of suicide all the time, all thanks to Windows :D
[04:15] <Frosteh> Seriously if anyone can  help me out, I'd really appreciate it
[04:15] <freelame> :)
[04:16] <ari_stress> Frosteh: what's the problem?
[04:16] <bartekJoJoM> does someone use here LumaQQ?
[04:16] <freelame> i have 2 hd. in the first i have win me and win xp in the second i have linux. i have formatted win me partition (hda1) and now i can't run win xp. i have changed grub's menu.lst file from hd(0,0) to hd(0,1), but nothing.
[04:16] <[-clever-] `ca> my dad's system recently started to bluescreen when he tried to remove norton
[04:16] <[-clever-] `ca> now its refusing to boot
[04:16] <[-clever-] `ca> i go to burn a ubuntu cd to fix his pc and my ubuntu panic's:P
[04:17] <Frosteh> i have an SDSL router in bridge mode, and I enter the settings from our ISP into an Ububtu 7.04 box which is connected to it, and I can't seem to reach the outside world, only other devices attached to the router
[04:17] <bartekJoJoM> I need someone who know a lot about java
[04:17] <Frosteh> yet the exact same settings work in windows XP
[04:17] <Moduliz0r> What is an STP Bridge?
[04:17] <Lamego> [-clever-] `ca, Ubuntu will not resolve your windows problems, the most you can do is use it to recover your data
[04:17] <Lamego> bartekJoJoM, try #java :P
[04:17] <[-clever-] `ca> Lamego: yeah i was going to try to view the partition to see how damaged it was
[04:17] <spark-s> to <freelame>, u can use xp cd to repair to boot to xp, and then use a linux live to install grub :p
[04:17] <[-clever-] `ca> Lamego: and ive used ubuntu before to fix a problem that kept win2k from booting
[04:18] <Frosteh> STP?
[04:18] <[-clever-] `ca> Lamego: copyed the dead drive to a good one skiping bad sectors
[04:18] <Moduliz0r> What is an STP Bridge?
[04:18] <[-clever-] `ca> the damaged data wasnt fixed but it sundenly booted fine:P
[04:18] <ari_stress> Frosteh: it could be the default gateway setting
[04:18] <Frosteh> It's a Zyxel SDSL router which is set to bridge mode, using RFC1483 encapsulation
[04:18] <[-clever-] `ca> errors on non vital data shouldnt make an os stop booting:P
[04:18] <[-clever-] `ca> damn crappy os's
[04:18] <Frosteh> I've set the default gateway to what it should be
[04:19] <Frosteh> and the IP's, and the DNS, and the netmask
[04:19] <LinuxHelp> How can I set the sharing mode of a file in a directory in a cifs mount? flock doesn't seem to have any effect over the network
[04:19] <Moduliz0r> Is there any specific packages to create a VPN server on Ubuntu Server?
[04:19] <mikl> Moduliz0r: openvpn :)
[04:19] <Moduliz0r> Thanks ;)
[04:20] <ari_stress> Frosteh: check the gateway setting using route -n
[04:20] <zhanx> there a way to stop apt-get from trying ot install a package that failed or force it to install a package
[04:20] <Kworth> does anyone know a tool to syncronize Thunderbird and my Sony Handy?
[04:22] <[-clever-] `ca> now to wait to see if my 6.06 panic's again
[04:22] <renzo17> zhanx: apt-get -f install
[04:24] <Frosteh> ari_stress: it's defo set correctly
[04:24] <Frosteh> just tried it

[04:29] <gmenelau> mastroDani:
[04:29] <zurn> I just installed an updated and now my system wont boot
[04:29] <gmenelau> mastroDani:  are you here?
[04:29] <zurn> I get a crc error - system haltedd
[04:29] <zhanx> renzo17: that didn't work
[04:29] <zurn> I can boot fine with the older kernel?
[04:30] <renzo17> zhanx: did you put "sudo" in front of that command?
[04:30] <NET||abuse> anybody able to help me with a cd not automounting, dmesg comes up with "UDF-fs: No VRS found" and i've looked at google, the only suggestion so far under ubuntu bugs (which was for breezy anyway) was to add iocharset=utf8 to fstab, did that, no help...
[04:30] <zurn> anyone?
[04:30] <zhanx> yes
[04:30] <zhanx> renzo17,  yes
[04:30] <webtech_m33> has anyone worked with freeradius before??
[04:30] <gmenelau> i have download nvidia drivers for sound , is in zip file can someone help me and tell me how to install them ?
[04:30] <Frogzoo> NET||abuse: my only suggestion is try something more recent than breezy
[04:31] <Slart> gah.. I think I'm going crazy with the keybindings in lyx.. if the manual tells me to press "A-m f".. what is that.. Alt+m+f? Alt+windows key+f? nothing works and the manual doesn't seem to have a "moron-faq" for me to use.. any hints?
[04:31] <NET||abuse> Frogzoo, no the support thread found on google was for breezy, i'm on Feisty
[04:31] <renzo17> zhanx: hmmmmm, you can remove broken/failed packages from synaptic too i beleive
[04:32] <Frosteh> Frogzoo: if you have anymore good ideas can you PM me or something, I will idle here
[04:32] <zhanx> renzo17,  synaptic the command?
[04:32] <Frosteh> really stitched up at the moment
[04:32] <Frogzoo> NET||abuse: you should google for linux bugs, as it's likely a kernel bug
[04:32] <zhanx> new to ubuntu
[04:32] <renzo17> synaptic package manager (its a frontend for apt-get System -> Admin -> Synaptic Package Manager
[04:32] <zurn> anyone else get a crc-error system halted error after installing todays updates?!?
[04:33] <zhanx> k
[04:33] <zurn> it installed a couple of linux-headers ans linux-libc-dev packages
[04:33] <zurn> linux-headers-2.6.20-16 (2.6.20-16.29) to 2.6.20-16.31
[04:33] <zurn> linux-headers-2.6.20-16-generic (2.6.20-16.29) to 2.6.20-16.31
[04:33] <zurn> linux-image-2.6.20-16-generic (2.6.20-16.29) to 2.6.20-16.31
[04:34] <zurn> linux-libc-dev (2.6.20-16.29) to 2.6.20-16.31
[04:34] <zurn> this is what it installed
[04:34] <Frogzoo> Frosteh: well pretty obviously the bridging isn't working - for some reason - as you can ping everything on the switch, but not on the DSL - I'm also wondering if you need to set SNAP as the default for ethernet
[04:34] <renzo17> gmenelau: you shouldnt need to install nvidia sound drivers, they are already built into the kernel
[04:34] <NET||abuse> Frogzoo, no,, just did a mount manually on command line,,(sorry i didn't try that earlier) and got it mounted, but that means my automount is not workin right....
[04:34] <zurn> it asked me to reboot and now I get a crc error system halted, when I boot
[04:35] <gmenelau> renzo17 i have problem withe the microphone
[04:35] <Frosteh> but that has to be a config problem though right?  I mean i've tried the same cable/port/IP as another setup that works.  What's SMAP?
[04:35] <Frosteh> SNAP sorry
[04:35] <zowtar> guys, my apt-get install spidermonkey-bin don't work... any idea?
[04:36] <[-clever-] `ca> ubuntu cd has allready half fixed my dads xp problem
[04:36] <[-clever-] `ca> ram is bad
[04:36] <[-clever-] `ca> that explains how everythign got corupt
[04:37] <evilofisho> I've got a problem, most of the times when I launch a game, it's like if I was constantly pushing down and left, I'm not sure what's wrong!
[04:38] <Kworth> anyone usign kmymoney with hbci?
[04:38] <apo_> evilofisho: Do you have a joystick or notebook with accelerometer?
[04:38] <IdleOne> zowtar: any errors?
[04:38] <evilofisho> apo_: Nope.
[04:38] <apo_> Hm
[04:39] <IdleOne> Kworth: tried #kubuntu ?
[04:39] <zowtar> IdleOne don't found
[04:39] <apo_> That only happens in games?
[04:39] <IdleOne> zowtar: what version of ubuntu?
[04:39] <Frogzoo> snap's a time of ethernet encapsulation, that seems related to the protocol the zyxel's using to connect, not sure, and don't know how to set it either
[04:39] <zowtar> IdleOne 6.06, is a problem?
[04:40] <IdleOne> !info spidermonkey-bin dapper

[04:41] <zowtar> IdleOne I don't know... what is this?
[04:41] <IdleOne> zowtar: follow the above link and enable universe and multiverse when that is done you try sudo apt-get install spidermonkey-bin
[04:42] <BeyondHorizon> Hi~
[04:42] <IdleOne> hello
[04:43] <Badpenguin86> I tried to install medal of honor allied assault on linux, but it cannot find default.cfg to run. Any ideas?
[04:45] <kRush> how do I configure ntpd to work correctly with my pppoe connection? looks like it starts too early and therefore won't bind to ppp0
[04:45] <Frosty|IDle> bewh...thanks for your help Frogzoo, i've got someone from our ISP coming in to take a look and see if he can help
[04:45] <linux4me> i'm looking for an updated howto for ubuntu feisty for iptables, any suggestions?
[04:45] <Aminux> hi
[04:45] <ultra> morning
[04:45] <Frogzoo> Frosty|IDle: cool, hope that works out
[04:45] <Pici> !away > Frosty|IDle
[04:45] <Frogzoo> linux4me: man iptables ?
[04:45] <Frosty|IDle> if you want i'll let you know the error when/if it's sorted
[04:46] <Chriswaterguy> Hi - is this a good place to ask advice on programs in ubuntu for specific purposes?
[04:46] <Frogzoo> Frosty|IDle: yeah, would be interested to know
[04:46] <Frogzoo> Chriswaterguy: sure
[04:46] <IdleOne> Chriswaterguy: shoot
[04:46] <linux4me> Frogzoo - i'm not looking for a manual but a step by step instruction on this
[04:46] <IdleOne> !iptables
[04:47] <ubotu> Ubuntu, like any other linux distribution, has firewall capabilities built-in. The firewall is managed using the 'iptables' command (see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/IptablesHowTo), or GUI applications such as Firestarter (Gnome) or Guarddog (KDE).
[04:47] <Aminux> can someone tell me which these version 6.06 or 7.04 is faster?
[04:47] <evilofisho> apo_: Rofl, I didn't realize I had my gamepad plugged in, my bad.
[04:47] <neverblue> morning
[04:47] <evilofisho> apo_: Thanks anyways.
[04:47] <Aminux> 6.06 or 7.04
[04:47] <Aminux> which is faster?
[04:47] <IdleOne> Aminux: depends on your machine . you can run Xubuntu if you have an older machine and want it to be a little faster
[04:47] <Frogzoo> linux4me: you could google iptables howto
[04:48] <kRush> !ntpd
[04:48] <Aminux> i have a p4
[04:48] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about ntpd - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[04:48] <LinAsH> linux4me, If you're looking for a gui -> firestarter
[04:48] <kRush> =(
[04:48] <RICH-ER-THEN-J00> Hello
[04:48] <Aminux> so,there is no diference between 6.06 and 7.04 in speeds?
[04:48] <linux4me> only looking for command line as I don't run gui, the iptableshowto link is not active btw
[04:48] <IdleOne> Aminux: I didnt notice any on my p3
[04:49] <Aminux> so,what are the diferences between the two versions
[04:49] <RICH-ER-THEN-J00> Can I ask a question?
[04:49] <IdleOne> Aminux: gnome is a little faster then kde
[04:49] <Chriswaterguy> Thanks - I want to do bulk resizing of image files - what's good for that? (In Windows I used to use Easy Thumbnails, from Fookes, which was excellent,but there's no linux version)
[04:49] <Pici> !ask | RICH-ER-THEN-J00
[04:49] <ubotu> RICH-ER-THEN-J00: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[04:49] <IdleOne> RICH-ER-THEN-J00: you just did
[04:50] <Frogzoo> Aminux: 7.04 is more responsive for gnome
[04:50] <Aminux> gnome is present in ubuntu ?
[04:50] <Aminux> or do i have to install it
[04:50] <Frogzoo> Aminux: sure
[04:50] <IdleOne> Aminux: yes it is default
[04:50] <NeilRobAU2> gday folks, trying to run 7.04 ubuntu, get unreadable screen. should i be using some spcial boot params perhaps?
[04:50] <Pici> Aminux: Gnome is the desktop environment by standard in Ubuntu Desktop
[04:50] <Frogzoo> Aminux: default
[04:50] <Aminux> cool
[04:50] <hwang> hi
[04:50] <Aminux> i dont like kde
[04:50] <RICH-ER-THEN-J00> oh. Ok, well, I've installed Ubuntu Fawn before, but I tried to install it the other day, and I keep getting things on the Live CD like "INIT 5: Respawning too fast, disabled for 5 minutes".
[04:50] <hwang> I like KDE
[04:50] <Aminux> thanx for the info
[04:50] <zowtar> IdleOne work... thanks a lot man...
[04:50] <zowtar> :)
[04:51] <IdleOne> zowtar: you are welcomwe
[04:51] <RICH-ER-THEN-J00> why would it not find the X window thingy on a Live CD that a freshly burnt?
[04:51] <basti171> .
[04:51] <Fantazyia> I am unable to run Pidgin after the updates to Ubuntu I got this morning.  When i trace it out it is getting a seg fault error.  I have tryed to remove it and reinstall, but no luck.  Does anyone know what to do?
[04:52] <ari_stress> hi guys, is 64bit faster than 32bit?
[04:52] <wmt> imma buy u a drank
[04:52] <IdleOne> Fantazyia: file a bug
[04:52] <Fantazyia> i did, just didnt know if anyone else had it or fixed it
[04:52] <wmt> Fantazyia, apt-get update pidgin
[04:52] <wmt> i think
[04:53] <Fantazyia> its not an apt package .. at least it didnt used to be
[04:53] <RICH-ER-THEN-J00> isn't it: apt-get upgrade pidgin ?
[04:53] <Fantazyia> but i did an install from source
[04:53] <IdleOne> Fantazyia: try apt-get update pidgin like wmt said
[04:53] <wmt> then why don't you just use apt to get it
[04:53] <Fantazyia> its not an apt package
 no,i think
[04:53] <wmt> yes it is
[04:53] <Aminux> Frogzoo: When creating a new partition for ubuntu should i make it logical or primary?
[04:53] <Fantazyia> ahh .. didnt used to be ... ill try it
[04:53] <wmt> gaim comes built in
[04:53] <neutrale> join #ubuntu-it
[04:53] <LinAsH> ari_stress, from my tests on my AMD64, about 8% faster, (not worth the hard work)
[04:53] <gmenelau> mastroDani:  are you here?
[04:53] <Fantazyia> yes .. im using gaim now, but gaim is crappy
[04:54] <RICH-ER-THEN-J00> Yeah, Gaim socks for IRC.
[04:54] <sandesh> how to become super user in ubuntu
[04:54] <Fantazyia> sandesh:  sudo command
[04:54] <RICH-ER-THEN-J00> Try typing sudo before each command, sandesh...
[04:54] <RICH-ER-THEN-J00> then enter your password.
[04:54] <sandesh> k thanks
[04:54] <gmenelau> i have download nvidia drivers for sound , is in zip file can someone help me and tell me how to install them ?
[04:54] <wmt> Fantazyia, pidgin is gaim
[04:54] <Frogzoo> Aminux: primary if you can - create a spare partition for /home also
[04:54] <Fantazyia> its not exactly the same though .. there are idfferences
[04:55] <wmt> slight ones
[04:55] <wmt> but they ditched the gaim project i thought
[04:55] <wmt> and now its just work on pidgin
[04:56] <wmt> any ways
[04:56] <Fantazyia> you are right wmt ... gaim doesnt support some of the new msn stuff and pidgin does
[04:56] <RICH-ER-THEN-J00> Gaim has "AIM" in it, so they got sued.
[04:56] <jin> hi ppl
[04:56] <RICH-ER-THEN-J00> Hi jin
[04:56] <krychek_> i bought a fujitsu-siemens la 1703 today and i have no sound and wrong video resolution :(
[04:56] <Fantazyia> yes ... pidgin is not in the repository .. fyi
[04:56] <Fantazyia> its only available as source for ubunut
[04:56] <Fantazyia> ubuntu
[04:56] <wmt> Fantazyia, make it be

[04:58] <IdlePidgin> it is a cool little client also hehe. first time I try it
[04:59] <Fantazyia> i will update to gutsy once it goes general release ... not yet though ... anyway i am already running the newest pidgin from a source install ... cause source is just better imo

[05:00] <mbt> Complete set of backports, plugins, and so forth.  :)
[05:00] <Xiittah> Umm, what is " x server"
[05:00] <Fantazyia> wmt .. its not an issue of knowing how to install them ... its an issue of them working correctly.  :-p
[05:00] <IdlePidgin> AminuxLogical
[05:00] <wmt> yea
[05:00] <Aminux_> hmmm
[05:00] <mbt> Fantazyia, I haven't had any issues with these ones yet, since the update to 2.1.1.
[05:01] <BasilS> Guys,how do you think,what is better for desktop, 6.06(some people says,that is more stable,than another ones) or next versions?
[05:01] <wmt> but yea
[05:01] <wmt> gaim / pidgin sucks anyways
[05:01] <Aminux_> Can i have xp and ubuntu installed in the same hard disk?
[05:01] <Fantazyia> wmt:  what would you recomend using ?
[05:01] <wmt> yes you can Aminux
[05:01] <apo_> Aminux_: Yes
[05:01] <mbt> BasilS, Depends on preference.  I would not use Dapper, myself; Feisty is great for a desktop.
[05:01] <wmt> Fantazyia, depends on what you're using gaim for
[05:01] <NeilRobAU2> hi folks. getting screen garbled running 7.04 live cd. cntl-alt-Bksp shows text for a moment, then appearx to restart. is there a way of setting up the screen before X starts?
[05:01] <apo_> But you should use different partitions
[05:01] <Fantazyia> msn
ok,thanks
[05:02] <wmt> Amsn
[05:02] <wmt> kopete
[05:02] <Aminux_> ok,thanks
[05:02] <mbt> wmt, Eww @ Kopete :)
[05:02] <wmt> kopete is awesome for msn
[05:03] <mbt> Now that development resumed on Pidgin, it's making some heavy strides.
[05:03] <scipio_> wmt, what if i need a client for yahoo mess? if you said pidgin sucks
[05:03] <frolle> Can anyone help me with a TV-out script? I want to be able to right click on my .avi file and then i want to play it on my TV..
[05:03] <wmt> i believe kopete has support for that also
[05:03] <mbt> scipio_, Pidgin 2.1.1 is really nice.
[05:03] <urthmover> filezilla seems to work fine.....
[05:03] <Xiittah> Umm, what is " x server"
[05:04] <mbt> scipio_, Of course, whether it is nice or blows chunks is a matter of personal preference.  :)
[05:04] <scipio_> mbt, that's what i'm using but i thought he has a better idea. i wouldn't use kopete in gnome desktop

[05:04] <mbt> scipio_, Many of the KDE "reflections" of GNOME software I have found to be less featureful than the GNOME counterpart.  Kopete, the last time I tried it, was no exception.
[05:05] <mbt> Granted, I haven't tried it in... one whole minor release.  :)
[05:05] <scipio_> :)
[05:05] <wmt> speaking of kopete
[05:05] <wmt> who wants to do me a favour and find me a fedora  rpm for kopete
[05:06] <scipio_> people on the fedora channel maybe?
[05:06] <onats> holee.. was able to connect
[05:07] <wmt> scipio_, i can't join the fedora channel
[05:07] <wmt> too much sadness
[05:07] <wmt> :(
[05:09] <onats> where can i find the configuration files for the smb mounts that are created in "Connect to Server"?
[05:10] <BasilS> what do you think about using more than one dm(for example Gnome and KDE) ? Is it harmful for system?
[05:10] <onats> where can i find the configuration files for the smb mounts that are created in "Connect to Server"? anyone?
[05:13] <onats> what's the better explorer than nautilus? and how do i change it?

[05:14] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about ktorrent - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[05:15] <Howitzer> Is powernowd essential for a linux system.
[05:15] <Howitzer> *?
[05:15] <dWho> hi all
[05:15] <soneil_> not  essential, but good news for laptops
[05:15] <kidbuntu> why does ktorrent exits on its own.
[05:15] <Howitzer> so i can safely disable it on my dekstop?
[05:16] <dWho> does anyone make a successfule internet sharing from ubuntu?
[05:16] <Howitzer> and what about acpid/apmd? (Power Management)
[05:16] <soneil_> most likely.   on my system, powernowd is responsible for slowing the cpu down when it's not needed, so my battery lasts longer.   that shouldn't be required on a desktop
[05:16] <dWho> does anyone make a successful internet sharing from ubuntu?
[05:17] <soneil_> acpi & such are wiser to leave alone.  they take care of all kinds of strange events.
[05:17] <ryushe_> greetings, quick question, I got an older laptop here (3 year old Toshiba Sattelite) and I'm trying to install Ubuntu via the 'Install' link from the live cd, is it normal that this takes a very very long time to even show the window borders of the app? Is there a text based way to install Ubuntu?
[05:18] <dWho> ryushe.. try the alternate install disk
[05:18] <FurryNemesis> ryushe_, it's not a 5200, is it? I've got one, might be able to help
[05:18] <FurryNemesis> that too
[05:18] <yrlnry> I can compile and run trivial java programs with "javac" and "java", but when I run "eclipse", I get a dialog box titled "COuld not launch Eclipse Platform", with a message "The custom VM you have chose4n is not a valid executable."
[05:18] <yrlnry> And then it exits.
[05:18] <yrlnry> What might be wrong?
[05:19] <dWho> do ubuntu has developer sections?
[05:19] <Howitzer> Thing is, since yesterday, i'm having loads of problems during boot..
[05:19] <ryushe_> FurryNemesis > euh, no idea tbh :) It's got media play buttons on the front, along with volume and headphone jacks, and 3 USB slots on the back
[05:19] <Howitzer> the boot process goes veeery slowly and sometimes just locks up
[05:19] <BlindSide> axaxa
[05:19] <dWho> mine i'm hoving problems with my new soundcard and internet sharing in ubuntu... seems impossible
[05:19] <FurryNemesis> flip it over and look at the labels, it'll say on there
[05:19] <ryushe_> and about the alternate install disk, what does that do? ie. why couldn't I use the disk I have now?
[05:20] <ryushe_> says Toshiba 1410-S173
[05:20] <FurryNemesis> ooh, old
[05:20] <ryushe_> yep ;)
[05:20] <dWho> ryushe_ minimum requirements is 256 mb for the reqular disk... i tried a lower memory but it takes a lot of time to load
[05:20] <FurryNemesis> alternate install disc for you then, it's probably struggling a bit on RAM
[05:20] <ryushe_> older than I thought apparently
[05:21] <ryushe_> oh well, I'll just have it struggle for a bit then, not too bothered about speed on this thing
[05:21] <ryushe_> and besides, it should have 256mb ram anyways :/
[05:22] <dWho> does anyone made a successful internet sharing using ubuntu?
[05:23] <onats> anyone here using thunar?
[05:23] <nikin> onats: me.
[05:23] <onats> nikin, how different is it from nautilus? anything that it cant do that nautilus can?
[05:24] <kidbuntu> i'm having trouble with ktorrent. it exits on its own
[05:24] <dWho> thunar is faster i guess
[05:24] <nikin> onats: there are a lot of plugins like CD burning wich are not included... as i tied samba conection is also a non existent, or problematic thing, but its much lighter.
[05:24] <slavik> is there a download manager that can verify a download and continue it if the download didn't finish? (crappy school network)
 try deluge... it's really nice
[05:24] <algo2> Ok I am trying to get my stupid wireless internet to work and can't.  I used add/remove to install ndiswrapper. doesn't work.  I tried manually installing but get errors.
[05:25] <kidbuntu> ok
[05:25] <algo2> What can I do?
[05:25] <tonyyarusso> I installed Feisty on a hard drive while on a school computer, and now when I put it in my computer at home networking doesn't work (it won't get an IP address).  Can anyone help fix this?

[05:27] <EvilBro> Somewhere in october, if I'm not mistaken, the next ubuntu will arrive. As a ubuntu/linux newby I was wondering what will happen to software I compiled from source when I upgrade?

[05:28] <scipio_> tonyyarusso, if you installed on a harddrive that you moved into another pc chances are it's not configured for the new hardware: wireless card, video card, sound etc. i don't know how to fix it without a reinstall though
[05:28] <IdleOne> EvilBro: believe you might have to compile again
[05:28] <Frogzoo> EvilBro: mostly it will still work
[05:28] <dWho> kidbuntu : i haven't tried ktorrent i'm using gnome so I stick with it... yes deluge works like uTorrent and azureus and lots of plugins too
[05:28] <tonyyarusso> scipio_: Right - the fix it is what I need to know :(
[05:28] <dWho> kidbuntu : u can have it percentage or progressbar it's configurable
[05:29] <Frogzoo> EvilBro: in other words, it will work, unless it doesn't :)
[05:29] <EvilBro> IdleOne/Frogzoo: so could go either way. but the self-compiled stuff won't interfere with the upgrade? (for instance: I compiled pidgin)
[05:29] <kidbuntu> dWho: thanks
[05:29] <Uriku> I need to redefine my keyboard, it doesn't recognize the 'super' key and 'print'
[05:30] <Frogzoo> EvilBro: unless you used apt to install, the upgrade doesn't even know it's there
[05:30] <IdleOne> EvilBro: it might it might not. Pidgin is included in 7.10 so it might re-install over the compiled version or it might not
[05:30] <Frogzoo> Uriku: ~/.Xmodmap
[05:30] <bruenig> does apt check for file conflicts in the real filesystem?
[05:30] <Uriku> :S I'm afraid I'm not in Linux
[05:30] <EvilBro> Frogzoo/IdleOne: so best uninstall self compiled (no apt-get) programs before upgrade?
[05:30] <IdleOne> EvilBro: the great part about it all is that you get to find out pretty soon :)
[05:31] <Uriku> atm
[05:31] <Frogzoo> bruenig: nope
[05:31] <bruenig> hmmm
[05:31] <Uriku> Frogzoo what does that do?
[05:31] <bruenig> pacman does
[05:31] <EvilBro> IdleOne: Yes... that is what I am afraid of. :)
[05:31] <pheo> ## hello
[05:31] <IdleOne> EvilBro: nah leave it you will be ok
[05:33] <dWho> linux needs improvements in internet sharing
[05:33] <EvilBro> Is there a clean utility for linux? (so if I upgrade and some files, but not all, are overwritten I'll be able to cleanup the no longer used files)

[05:39] <mateus> E: Couldn't find package zlib
[05:39] <slavik> so, anyone know of any download manager?
[05:40] <mapp> gwget
[05:40] <slavik> mapp: will it verify the complete download and resume if it aborted?
[05:40] <nucco> slavik: wget
[05:40] <nucco> slavik: wget -c someurl
[05:40] <dug> is soldat like multiplayer contra or something, i see it's 2D
[05:40] <mapp> it will resume

[05:41] <nucco> ubuntu livecd doesn't boot up on my system
[05:41] <nucco> i'm wondering if upgrading via apt will work
[05:41] <nucco> i'm using dapper atm
[05:41] <mapp> u tried err dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg?
[05:41] <EvilBro> Frogzoo: /usr/local = for whatever I install myself? and /usr will be filled by the packages?
[05:41] <slavik> nucco: and why not the manager?
[05:41] <slavik> nucco: if you use fglrx, you'll have to rebuild it
[05:42] <nucco> i haven't upgraded yet
[05:42] <Sheliak> hey, maybe someone knows here how can I run an external program from python and catch after that the return value of the ext. program,  I tried with popen and system but unfortunately nothing works the way i would like :-/. Any ideas ?
[05:42] <nucco> i'm planning to upgrade
[05:42] <nucco> i just don't want to get stuck iwithout a display
[05:42] <nucco> i'm using dapper, everythign works fine,
[05:42] <Pici> Sheliak: ask in #python
[05:42] <nucco> i hope if i upgrade to x1600 i could still fix the display?
[05:43] <nucco> if its just a matter of dpkg-reconfigure...
[05:43] <nucco> it's not a big deal,
[05:43] <Jack_Sparrow> nucco: Dapper live worked like a charm, the feisty live has been very much hit or miss for me...  I suggest full backup using TAR just in case things dont go as planned... with upgrade
[05:43] <Sheliak> *damn* sorry, I believed I was in #python ... ups
[05:43] <nucco> i only fear its bigger than that?
[05:43] <bascule> Sheliak: os.popen('ls -l).read() <-- like that ?
[05:43] <slavik> nucco: if you are using fglrx, you will have to rebuild the kernel module ...
[05:43] <aLeSD> hi all, someone here know a software to mixing sw to do disco music ?
[05:43] <bascule> 'ls -l' oops
[05:43] <nucco> u mean like with module-assistant?
[05:43] <dhuv> hello all
[05:44] <Jack_Sparrow> aLeSD: You might look into ubuntu-studio
[05:44] <nucco> slavik:
[05:44] <nucco> u mean the ubuntu provided fglrx won't work?
[05:44] <dhuv> I am using kubuntu gutsy and just did an apt-get upgrade and have noticed that gimp, firefox and thunderbird does not work, surprisingly pidgin still works
[05:44] <dhuv> does anyone know of a workaround?
[05:44] <jeoz> Ubuntu-7.04-desktop-i386.iso intaller hangs up with the following 'error': "can't access tty : job control turned off"... what's to be done?
[05:44] <slavik> nucco: that should
[05:44] <bascule> Sheliak: also .read().split() for nicer formatting
[05:44] <aLeSD> #join /ubuntu-studio
[05:44] <aLeSD> ops
[05:45] <IdleOne> EvilBro: you can backup /usr/local and after upgrade put it back but i dont think it will be an issue. try asking in #ubuntu+1
[05:45] <slavik> nucco: the ubuntu provided one should work
[05:45] <zhanx> is there  a place to paste error messages
[05:46] <nucco> slavik: i'll try the upgrade,
[05:46] <Jack_Sparrow> jeoz: try burning at 4x , try some of the F6 options or use the alt text install

[05:46] <slavik> afaik

[05:58] <noelferreira> Jack_Sparrow, there's nothing to do with desktop effects (beryl) that happens without xgl server. it is something to do with battery using and hibernating / screensavver. with ac turned on nothing happens.
[05:58] <Jack_Sparrow> malocite: you can read ntfs without doing anything
[05:58] <malocite> Jack_Sparrow: I need to recover data

[05:59] <zhanx> darn woot wont take my apo address
[05:59] <Coded1> i have 7.04 and evrething installed ok, i can play media with little problem after i installed the gstreamer codecs/modules, but for some reason even after i have tried xawtv,vlc,tvtime and gxine they all seem to have a problem with my tuner card.  VLC plays it but does not change the channels and plays it at very low resolution like 200x200 when it is capable of much more, any ideas?
[05:59] <Jack_Sparrow> malocite: You can read and recover date from ntfs without doing anythind special.  to write to ntfs requires ntfs-3g
[05:59] <malocite> jack_sparrow: ntfs recovery is built into ubuntu?  thats awesoem

[06:04] <CoasterMaster> benzs_s: is it an NTFS drive?
[06:04] <Jack_Sparrow> zhanx: What command or tool did you use to try to install that and have you changed or added repos
[06:04] <drock> Well, is it possible to downgrade? Theoretically speaking . . .
[06:04] <obelix_> could someone help me with a external ntfs HDD?
[06:04] <Bob-san> well the problem is i removed the ubuntu drive and installed it bak in the old pc but didnt properly uninstall
[06:04] <zhanx> Jack_Sparrow,  nothing but apt-get and nothing else on a fresh install
[06:04] <benzs_s> CoasterMaster: yeah... is that a problem? until recently i used 64bit ubuntu and it was fine there, but since returning to 32bit (with new install) it's gone all funny :o
[06:04] <Coded1> obelix_:  whats the problem
[06:04] <sipior> drock: yes, modify your apt sources file, fasten seatbelt
[06:04] <IdleOne> drock: nope need to fresh install for downgrade
[06:05] <obelix_> i can read but i can't write
[06:05] <CoasterMaster> benzs_s: you need to install ntfs-3g to enable write support for NTFS drives
[06:05] <CoasterMaster> !ntfs-3g | benzs_s
[06:05] <obelix_> i did
[06:05] <Bob-san> *sigh* if anyone would please help. may you go into #helpbobplease
[06:05] <drock> k, thats what I thought.  I'm just preparing for a 50 workstation upgrade
[06:05] <ubotu> benzs_s: ntfs-3g is a Linux driver which allows read/write access to NTFS partitions. Installation instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MountingWindowsPartitions
[06:05] <benzs_s> CoasterMaster: awesome! thanks
[06:05] <CoasterMaster> obelix: did you install ntfs-3g
[06:05] <CoasterMaster> benzs_s: no problem, enjoy

[06:06] <CoasterMaster> Discerer: System -> Preferences -> Hardware Information
[06:06] <obelix_> it was working for a while and then nothing
[06:06] <sipior> Bob-san: sorry, you mean uninstall ubuntu? why is it a problem that the disk is now in the old pc?
[06:06] <Bob-san> well it wont lemme boot WInXP in the newe pc
[06:06] <Jack_Sparrow> zhanx: Were you working with the installed UB or livecd

[06:07] <Coded1> k
[06:07] <Jack_Sparrow> Bob-san: That is windows copy protection kiciking in
[06:07] <Bob-san> ok basically this is exactly what it says... plz wait a moment
[06:07] <Bob-san> GRUB Loading stage1.5
[06:07] <Bob-san> GRUB loading, please wait. . .
[06:07] <Bob-san> Error 21
[06:08] <Bob-san> and then it just hangs
[06:08] <Jack_Sparrow> Bob-san: If I understand what you are saying.. you cant move an XP install between PC's
[06:08] <sipior> Bob-san: yeah, it just can't find anything to boot. pop in an ubuntu live cd and reinstall grub
[06:08] <zhanx> Jack_Sparrow,  is there a file i can edit to kill that from trying to install
[06:08] <Bob-san> ok
[06:08] <RoboticTao> !LBA
[06:08] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about lba - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[06:08] <Bob-san> wait a moment--i got 7.04 next to me
[06:09] <Bob-san> ah shit the old pc crashed... wait a sec
[06:09] <frojnd> Jack_Sparrow, Ok. I heard somewhere that modprobe via-agp; dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg  also restart keyboard mouse and monitor settings... what's the difference between those two commands ?
[06:09] <Bob-san> do i need to reboot the newer pc?
[06:09] <sipior> Bob-san: actually, just modify the /boot/grub/menu.lst so that it points to the appropriate kernel file
[06:09] <Bob-san> im a bit of a linux newbie, despite having it for 2 years
[06:10] <sipior> Bob-san: the root device is probably incorrect in the config file
[06:10] <kishan> i have a problem my wireless card had installed drivers in restricted drives  but still i am unable to get my wireless working
[06:10] <Bob-san> wait im gonna boot from the livecd?
[06:10] <drock> Can I boot a Feisty ISO from Grub?
[06:10] <Jack_Sparrow> frojnd: dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg     is what I use.....   I dont see where modprobe would do what you are asking, but get a second opinion.
[06:10] <malocite> how do I know which device one of my harddrives is?
[06:11] <kishan> hi
[06:11] <orbisvicis> once i ssh into a computer, how can i visually notify all users currently logged on?
[06:11] <doug__> i have no sound in my gateway computer how do i fix that i just installed ubuntu
[06:11] <Bob-san> ok now
[06:11] <sipior> Bob-san: well, you'll have to boot from something :)
[06:11] <Bob-san> how do i reinstall the GRUB so it points only to windows?
[06:11] <sipior> Bob-san: actually, grub has a console you could use to find the kernel file
[06:11] <Pirate_Hunter> help!! Rhythmbox shuts down when trying to play song in Xubuntu, what can I do?
[06:11] <malocite> How do I know what the device id is for /mount/disk ?
[06:11] <sipior> Bob-san: so booting from a live cd is not strictly necessary
[06:11] <Pici> !uuit | malocite
[06:11] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about uuit - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[06:11] <Pici> !uuid | malocite
[06:11] <ubotu> malocite: To see a list of your devices/partitions and their corresponding UUID's, run this command in a !shell:  blkid  (see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LibAtaForAtaDisks for the rationale behind the transition to UUID)
[06:11] <Bob-san> well these are my options with the 7.04 disk
[06:11] <frojnd> Jack_Sparrow, so this command works when I change keyboard mouse and monitor.. This command mission is to recognize (again) those hardware ?
[06:11] <Bob-san> start/install ubuntu
[06:12] <Bob-san> start... safe graphic

[06:12] <Bob-san> i had a problem before--wait a few to see if i happens again
[06:12] <malocite> Pici: I c two devices listed /dev/sda1: TYPE="ntfs"
[06:12] <malocite> /dev/sdc1: TYPE="ntfs"
[06:12] <Xenguy> orbisvicis: 'wall' is the traditional command, but I think it assumes that users are on the command-line
[06:13] <Xenguy> orbisvicis: I could be wrong about that
[06:13] <Jack_Sparrow> frojnd:  make a copy of your xorg.conf before you do anything so you can at least get back to where you are now...

[06:21] <jgm> Hi could someone tell me where the mouse sensitivity options are written to on the filesystem?  Mine seem to be mucked up and the GUI isn't resetting them properly so figured I'd do it manually...
[06:21] <Bob-san> will i need to reinstall the old hard drive to get it fixed?
[06:21] <Thunderfox933> or is it still alpha
[06:21] <PriceChild> !gutsy | Thunderfox933

[06:21] <sipior> Bob-san: you know, a vastly better option might be to upgrade your version of ubuntu, which would solve both your ubuntu and XP booting issues
[06:21] <stormfrog> I just have to say this to all of you who is in this channel and help fellow ubuntu users, I LOVE YOU! (I am currently assigned to set up a Windows Server and its HELL... I hate every second of it, and if I want support... well, our company just cant afford that because its just to expensive).
[06:21] <CaBlGuY> !rescue
[06:21] <ubotu> To rescue a broken system, boot the alternate install CD and select "Rescue a broken system"

[06:21] <frojnd> Jack_Sparrow, scrool lock button is very inportant for him since he has keyboard mouse monitor switch :)
[06:21] <anandanbu> I get this problem when i try to mount the dvd drive http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/36341/
[06:22] <obelix_> anyone who knows about ntfs on linux?

[06:22] <Bob-san> same errors
[06:22] <Jack_Sparrow> frojnd: kvm switch should work just fine
[06:22] <Pici> !alternate | CaBlGuY
[06:22] <ubotu> CaBlGuY: The Alternate CD (available as of Dapper) is the classical text-mode installation CD. Use it if you wish to upgrade via CD, or for an "expert" mode install. For normal installs, use the Desktop CD, which is also a "Live" CD - See also !Minimal
[06:22] <CaBlGuY> Hmmm   where do I get this "alternate install" CD ?
[06:22] <frojnd> Jack_Sparrow, hm?
[06:22] <sipior> Bob-san: hmm...bizarre. does another live cd boot (knoppix, for example)
[06:22] <frojnd> Jack_Sparrow, thi is name of a package ?
[06:22] <Bob-san> still errno=-5
[06:22] <Jack_Sparrow> frojnd: since you know he has kvm he almost certainly has stnadard round ps2 type hardware
