Im just not sure what to put in the command line, "lpr -P <printername>" was the default entry in that field, I've tried just "xfprint4" and "kprinter", but nothing works, or requires a file name argument ect.. kinda stuck here

[19:46] <oCean_> Frijolie: I like the proftpd, but they all have their own tweaks
[19:46] <r3> kaiska - i find the jaunty slow in contrary
[19:46] <Frijolie> oCean_, why did I not come across those with Google? I did see something about vsftpd but it was in Ubuntu docs but for 6.06

[19:47] <Anusien> crdlb: I got it working.  Thanks for all the help!  Setting the driver in /etc/X11/xorg.conf did it.  (It didn't work the last time I tried because I accidentally commented out the driver line and not the BusID line like I meant to)
[19:47] <Dud3> how, r3?
[19:47] <Ubuntunub> gren420: if i still have a problem after install and reboot are you available or are you busy?
[19:47] <r3> Dud3 - i thin you need to backup all saves first
[19:47] <Frijolie> oCean, hard = hard to configure...both ends are server and client
[19:47] <kaiska> r3: here my apps are so reponsive! maybe because off my main root partition on ext2 (ssd) and my home on ext4 (harddrive)
[19:47] <r3> Dud3 - then reset ps3 to factory settings
[19:47] <crdlb> Anusien: great :)
[19:47] <Dud3> realy, r3?
[19:47] <r3> Dud3 .. yeah
[19:48] <Dud3> ok r3, i will try it
[19:48] <oCean_> Frijolie: it should not - but sometimes... (sorry for the obvious answer) For ftp port 21 should be open and NAT'ed
[19:48] <r3> Dud3 - no bother
[19:48] <r3> Dud3 - it will format the HDD and reinstall the ps3 to factory settings
[19:48] <ShinyHat> can anyone here help me tether a blackberry?
[19:49] <Frijolie> oCean_, yeah, I've already got port 21 forwarded to my internal IP
[19:49] <r3> Kaiska - SDD makes hell of a difference.. but for my netbook running standard HDD .. i find jaunty kinda slower than the previous distros
[19:49] <Frijolie> oCean_, installing proftpd now
[19:49] <r3> no developers here ?
[19:49] <Anusien> crdlb: And now I feel like a bad ass because I'm using the open source drivers :P  Thanks again, I know this is a hard thing to do, but I appreciate it

[19:52] <Frijolie> thanks, I'll check them out
[19:52] <r3> gavintlgold - jaunty has the most recent kernel - which means most recent HW support - if it doesnt work then .. then too bad.. when running linux.. you have to keep compatibility in mind
[19:52] <oCean_> gavintlgold: all jaunty discussions/issues go in channel #ubuntu+1
[19:52] <litwinos> r3 -- I  changed it from 83 to 5 on windows using ext2fst and i cant undo

[19:53] <gavintlgold> oCean_: it has never worked since at least 3 versions ago
[19:53] <r3> what you mean ? it worked before ?

[19:54] <r3> litwinos - not sure if i can help... technically ... changing partition type means formating as well
[19:54] <gavintlgold> r3: he told me to go to ubuntu+1, but it's a problem across versions
[19:54] <oCean_> gavintlgold: that can be, but if you are currently using Jaunty, then you should address your issue NOT in this channel
[19:54] <Alex_21> I checked my sources.list file and it all looks goo
[19:54] <Alex_21> Good

[19:58] <topher_> my system tray is missing on ubuntu, and when trying to add it, its not in the list, i think i might have uninstalled the package, anyone know what the name of the panel is in aptitude?
[19:58] <oCean_> topher_: do you mean "notification area" ?
[19:58] <tritium> _Brun0_: my suspicion is that your IDE cannot read over gvfs.  If that's the case, you may need to add an entry to your /etc/fstab to auto-mount the share on boot.
[19:59] <topher_> hmm, like where the icons are docked, like banshee and such
[19:59] <topher_> lol
[19:59] <topher_> k nvm thx oCean_

[20:00] <r3> did you try gnome-panel ?
[20:00] <macvr> hi all... what is the command to remove execute privileges from a file? i mean opposite of chmod 755 ..? is that correct?
[20:00] <topher_> r3 i just thought it was called system tray, its notificiation area
[20:00] <topher_> :P
[20:00] <r3> dunno
[20:00] <r3> :D
[20:00] <r3> ok lads
[20:00] <r3> gotta go
[20:00] <FloodBot1> r3: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[20:01] <_Brun0_> tritium, ty alot for your help! you mean soemething like: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MountWindowsSharesPermanently ?
[20:01] <r3> ahm
[20:02] <oCean_> macvr: well, no. That would leave the execute permissions for the owner of the file
[20:02] <ChotaZ> jklock: you there?
[20:02] <russian_ulysses> Can anyone suggest some fast way to restore characters in filenames downloaded with wget with no --restrict-filenames. For example, some cyrillic symbols in such filenames will be changed to something like ?%80. Or, may be you can tell what stands for ? in such filename. Currently script I wrote for this task chokes on these ? symbols.
[20:03] <macvr> oCean_: i meant opposite of chmod 755... i want to remove the execute privilege for a simple text file i created in an ntfs partition, but whenever i create a file in the ntfs partition it contains the execute privilages!
[20:04] <oCean_> macvr: default umask for users is 0022, creating files in 644 mode (-rw-r--r--)
[20:04] <macvr> so doing chmod 644 for the file would remove the execute?
[20:05] <oCean_> macvr: ah yes, for NTFS partitions it' an other story.
[20:05] <macvr> oCean_: ok so how do i proceed?
[20:05] <oCean_> macvr: you have to specify the permissions for NTFS partitions during mount time (e.g. in /etc/fstab) For more info, see: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AutomaticallyMountPartitions
[20:07] <macvr> oCean_: automatic mount? i edited the fstab since i didnt want auto mount...! why is that essential for preventing the file from gaining execute privileges?
[20:07] <Bullsway> anyone else sitting in the dark ? :P
[20:07] <Daremonai> am getting: MKACTIVITY (and a bunch of garbage) then: Could not parse response status line - when I commit to svn repository, everything else works fine though, what does that mean?
[20:08] <oCean_> macvr: permissions on NTFS differ from the way linux works with that. So at mount time, you have to specify attributes like fmask,dmask et cetera
[20:08] <Frijolie> how do you tell if the server/service is running and the appropriate ports are open and listening?
[20:09] <Dud3> r3, i did what you said...but i still have the kboot menu when I select "Boot other OS" from me ps3 menu
[20:09] <__nano__> Frijolie: you can use nmap
[20:09] <oCean_> Frijolie: run "sudo netstat -anp | grep 21" and look in the upper few lines or do "sudo netstat -anp |grep ftp" Also, you could try to "ftp localhost"
[20:09] <macvr> oCean_: oh... ok... i get it... will read though, changing the mask would do the trick... that it or anything else i need to do?
[20:09] <bonhoffer> is there a good photo-stitch program for ubuntu
[20:09] <_VIM_> Frijolie: you could try iptraf or nmap too
[20:09] <oCean_> macvr: that would do the trick
[20:10] <Frijolie> whoa, thanks for the reponse. lemme try. I just edited proftpd.conf
[20:10] <__nano__> Frijolie: _VIM_: yeah iptraf is good aswell
[20:10] <macvr> oCean_: thanx for the help ... will readup about it...

[20:15] <kristian_> if i type "md5sum -c MD5FILE" it will start echoing filenames and ok next to it. but it gives no summary if all is ok. if one or more files is not ok, will it say so at the end of the echo?
[20:15] <Ghabit> Hello. Advise me please - which arch of ubuntu to choose - 32 or 64 bit?
[20:15] <user___> zaggynl: the data is still there, only the entry in the partition table in the MBR was deleted, i suggest asking #linux and googling in parallel
[20:15] <SlimeyPete> Ghabit: what processor do you have, and how much RAM?
[20:16] <gren420> Ghabit
[20:16] <Ghabit> model name      : Intel(R) Core(TM)2 Duo CPU     E6850  @ 3.00GHz
[20:16] <Ghabit> 2 gb of ram
[20:16] <zaggynl> user___: thanks
[20:16] <ChotaZ> how can i use brasero to burn an iso to a CDR?
[20:16] <gren420> Ghabit I would use 32 until later right now not many use 64
[20:17] <SlimeyPete> Ghabit: use 32-bit. Flash plugins etc. work better on 32-bit, and you don't have more than 3GB of RAM.
[20:17] <SlimeyPete> 64-bit may be a bit faster but you probably won't notice the difference
[20:17] <_Brun0_> tritium, i got it. the link i sent to you explains how to resolve my issue: "sudo gedit /etc/nsswitch.conf" change hosts to: "hosts: files wins dns" and install winbind: sudo aptitude install winbind. Ty allot for your attention.
[20:18] <Ghabit> SlimeyPete, gren420, thank you!
[20:18] <porter1> 64 bit isn't that much faster, though jaunty might change that a bit
[20:18] <Luomeng> hello
[20:18] <gren420> Ghabit np
[20:18] <stillme> hi all
[20:18] <stillme> am new to ubuntu
[20:18] <Ghabit> !install
[20:18] <Dud3> I have installed ubuntu7.04 on my playstation3 together with kboot...i want to remove the linux installation now...Can anyone help me? I formatted the linux partition but now I am still stuck with KBoot?
[20:18] <stillme> how can i setup a bridge on it??
[20:18] <Luomeng> i just installed ubuntu on a samsung nc10 netbook and i cant see the bottom of the screen on many of the applications
[20:18] <Luomeng> can anyone help?
[20:19] <Flannel> Dud3: You'll have to replace whatever bootloader was on there before.  Or just configure kboot to boot... whatever else it is.
[20:21] <Ubuntunub> Can someone help me- my wireless driver somehow is unistalled and its not in hardware drivers for new ones:
[20:21] <ChotaZ> !brasero
[20:21] <debclair> hi everyone
[20:21] <ChotaZ> !burning
[20:21] <danie> h
[20:22] <Dud3> ok Flannel, that sounds logic...
[20:22] <Luomeng> i just installed ubuntu and i cant see the botom of the screen for applications like revolution email
[20:22] <Luomeng> can someone help?
[20:22] <anom01y> is it normal to have to type in the file name in the "print command" in nedit when I need to print something ?
[20:22] <Luomeng> i just installed ubuntu and i cant see the bottom of the screen for applications like revolution email
[20:22] <Ubuntunub> lueomeng: you mean the toolbar at the bottom?
[20:23] <Luomeng> like the window is too large for my screen
[20:23] <Ubuntunub> try changing your resolution... or it might be that you accidently deleted it... you can right click on your other one and click new panel then drag down to bottom
[20:24] <Luomeng> what do you mean ubuntunub?
[20:24] <Luomeng> im very new at this... sorry
[20:24] <chay> hello
[20:24] <Ubuntunub> lueomeng: can you see the bar at the top of your screen with applications @ right?
[20:24] <Dud3> Flannel: do you think its possible to just install another linux? Instead of recovering of removing the remaining kboot?
[20:24] <Luomeng> yeah  i can
[20:25] <Flannel> Dud3: That would be possible, yes.  That other linux will just overwrite kboot.
[20:25] <ChotaZ> !installxp
[20:25] <chay> zhqt do you do noz
[20:25] <ChotaZ> !Windows
[20:25] <Dud3> indeed, Flannel, but how can I start a livecd from kboot?
[20:25] <Ubuntunub> lueomeng: right click on your toolbar at the top, then click add panel... then drag it to the bottom... i just think you deleted it nothing to do with resolution
[20:26] <taz_> i want to know.. how it work... u know cube box.. it all same picture... i would like each wallpaper diffrent....
[20:26] <Flannel> Dud3: No idea.  I don't think you usually do.  Just make the computer boot from CD?  You'll really need to consult the PS3 specific documentation.
[20:27] <Luomeng> no
[20:27] <Luomeng> i mean like i actually cant see half of the revolution screen
[20:27] <Ubuntunub> luomeng: oh ok one sec.
[20:27] <Luomeng> okay
[20:27] <Dud3> ok Flannel, ty...
[20:28] <kristian_> if i type "md5sum -c MD5FILE" it will start echoing filenames and ok next to it. but it gives no summary if all is ok. if one or more files is not ok, will it say so at the end of the echo?
[20:29] <taz_> any one know about.... i would like to know if there is wallpaper each side of cube-diffrent picture? possibale ???
[20:29] <Ubuntunub> luomeng: i actually don't know how to change resolution... when start if mine messes up it fixed auto... sorry
[20:29] <eth01> please ignore a shutdown comment in the next minute or so. only certain users within this channel will take note.
[20:29] <Ubuntunub> !resolution lueomeng

[20:30] <Ubuntunub> ok?
[20:30] <Luomeng> yeah i will
[20:30] <Luomeng> another quick question

[20:30] <Ubuntunub> lueomeng: type to me though
[20:30] <Luomeng> my laptop keys dont work
[20:30] <antonius> hi, i simply want to switch to xfce and remove gnome, any warnings or suggestions?  <i don't want to reinstall w/ xubuntu>
[20:31] <Ubuntunub> what laptop do u have?
[20:31] <babi> alguem sabe como eu coloco uma cedilha no meu notebook
[20:31] <nubuntu> hello
[20:31] <ChotaZ> !portuguese
[20:31] <theonewhowas> antonius: XFCE and GNOME rely on the same libraries. Removing GNOME and leaving XFCE intact will be difficult.
[20:31] <Luomeng> samsung nc10
[20:31] <Luomeng> its a netbook
[20:31] <Ubuntunub> im sorry i don't know...
[20:32] <wolter> !who | Luomeng Ubuntunub
[20:32] <Ubuntunub> wolter: i know please stop
[20:32] <theonewhowas> antonius: You could just grab all the XFCE packages for xubuntu with apt-get install xubuntu-desktop
[20:32] <Ubuntunub> !shutup: wolter
[20:32] <wolter> Ubuntunub, stop what? just keeping order over here fellow.
[20:32] <antonius> theonewhowas: but, if i reinstall xfce after removing gnome, wouldn't apt fetch the appropriate libraries?
[20:33] <theonewhowas> antonius: Sure.
[20:33] <brad_> can anyone help with a kernel panic?
[20:33] <Luomeng> ubuntunub how do you change brightness?
[20:33] <Ubuntunub> wolter: I know i forgot for one little stupid line
[20:33] <theonewhowas> antonius: I recommend you don't purge gnome until you're finished w/ the new install though
[20:33] <Ubuntunub> Luomeng: i am not sure, never had to.
[20:33] <Dud3> Flannel: I fixed it by using "check bootloader integrity" :D
[20:33] <Dud3> bye :P and ty:)
[20:33] <wolter> Ubuntunub, ok, don't overreact fellow.
[20:33] <taz_> any can help me,.... for  wallpaper eachside of cube  diffrent picutre ???
[20:33] <taz_> please
[20:33] <wolter> !language | Ubuntunub
[20:33] <Ubuntunub> wolter: please stop calling me fellow.
[20:33] <antonius> theonewhowas: should i remove ubuntu-desktop at that juncture?
[20:34] <ruruth> I have some partitions, which I don't want to be shown as mountable by the users. How can I do that?
[20:34] <Ubuntunub> !annoying | wolter
[20:34] <wolter> Ubuntunub, Well, I'm sorry buddy, I didn't want to piss you off.
[20:34] <ruruth> Ergo, those drives not being shown in the disk mounter panel applet and such.
[20:34] <wolter> Flannel, could you watch this guy over here, Ubuntunub?
[20:34] <Mark_Jones> Hi guys, I just got a 5 port PCI-USB card, I installed it on my 8.10 desktop PC and I was comparing write speeds with my WD My Passport to make sure its going full speed.So I copied a DVD-MP4 rip that I did its 1.1GB...
[20:34] <theonewhowas> antonius: I would remove ubuntu-desktop, install xubuntu-desktop & then purge the uninstalled packages
[20:34] <theonewhowas> antonius: 'course you don't need to purge if you don't care about the disk space
[20:34] <nevada1920> ubuntu is #1 linux ubuntu for life
[20:35] <brad_> can anyone help with a kernel panic?
[20:35] <Flannel> !purexfce | antonius, theonewhowas
[20:35] <Ubuntunub> wolter: sorry i am having a bad day, system huge problem.
[20:35] <eth01`> .up<EMAIL_ADDRESS>:finishedukswitchoff
[20:35] <ChotaZ> !ask | brad_
[20:35] <Mark_Jones> My onboard ports go at like 27MB/sec and the new card thats advertised at 10% faster than normal USB 2.0 is actually transfering at 10MB /sec slower.
[20:35] <nevada1920> \drdy
[20:35] <wolter> Ubuntunub, no problem, I understand buddy.
[20:35] <theonewhowas> brad_: What's it telling you?
[20:35] <Ubuntunub> wolter: do you accept my apology.
[20:35] <brad_> theonewhowas: I have a stack trace
[20:35] <antonius> thanks guys, for saving me some trial and error...i remember having minor difficulties w/ this before..cheers
[20:35] <Mark_Jones> Do I need to do any configuring for mynew card or is it recomended to do a clean install of Ubuntu when you add hardware?
[20:35] <brad_> theonewhowas: but not exactly sure what it is saying
[20:35] <wolter> Ubuntunub, I do, but for the future, please don't unload your bad days on us.
[20:36] <Mark_Jones> Or is this completely normal?
[20:36] <theonewhowas> Mark_Jones: Likely a result of the disk controller.
[20:36] <eth01`> thank you.
[20:36] <nevada1920> http://www.ubuntu.com go here for help
[20:36] <brad_> theonewhowas: should I paste what I have to the pastebin?
[20:36] <theonewhowas> brad_: Did you check the logs?
[20:36] <theonewhowas> brad_: Sure
[20:36] <brad_> theonewhowas: I get the panic while booting/installing the livecd
[20:36] <Mark_Jones> So my Passport drive may not like the new USB card is that what you mean?
[20:36] <Ubuntunub> wolter: ok
[20:37] <Mark_Jones> Its a Belkin card.
[20:37] <guntbert> nevada1920: do you have a support question?
[20:37] <theonewhowas> Mark_Jones: It's not a matter of like or dislike, it's just that your passport drive may not be fast enough to completely utilize the usb controller
[20:38] <Mark_Jones> Hmm Well shouldnt that card transfer at least the same speed as my onboard USB jacks or not?
[20:38] <Ubuntunub> I can't get my wireless card to be read by ubuntu even though earlier today it worked fine- can someone help me?
[20:38] <brad_> theonewhowas: http://paste.ubuntu.com/139752/
[20:38] <madrazr> Hello all, is it possible to obtain the device name from a mounted partition?
[20:38] <theonewhowas> Mark_Jones: In theory, yes.
[20:38] <usser> Mark_Jones, just use firewire, oh wait you can't passport doesnt support, tsk, tsk, tsk
[20:38] <brad_> madrazr: use mount
[20:38] <Mark_Jones> Yeah thats what I thought.I wonder if I should test on 8.04 and see if it has same speed.
[20:38] <madrazr> brad_: Ok thanks got it
[20:39] <Mark_Jones> Is there actually a package I can install thats actually made to test drive transfer speeds instead of just reading what gnome tells me?
[20:39] <Ubuntunub> I can't get my wireless card to be read by ubuntu even though earlier today it worked fine- can someone help me?
[20:39] <theonewhowas> brad_: Have you successfully booted from the disk before?
[20:40] <brad_> theonewhowas: I can boot from 8.04, but 8.10/9.04 both panic shortly after booting
[20:40] <brad_> theonewhowas: the checksums on both disk are fine
[20:40] <nevada1920> when i boot up i get a msg saying drdy
[20:40] <pretender_> when clicking add file in DeVeDe inubuntu 8.10 it closes.  I have tried the version in the repo and latest version but they do the same thing,  Output from terminal http://paste.ubuntu.com/139338/
[20:40] <theonewhowas> brad_: I've heard of that issue w/ the livecd for certain laptops. Have you tried the noapci cheatcode @ boot?
[20:40] <theonewhowas> acpi**
[20:40] <brad_> yes
[20:41] <theonewhowas> brad_: Is this just to intall?
[20:41] <theonewhowas> install**(
[20:41] <brad_> I tried noacpi, noapic, nosmp, pci=noacpi, and all of them basically fail
[20:41] <mhiku> whats the default configuration for outlook in the default config for postfix in ubuntu?
[20:41] <brad_> theonewhowas: well, I was trying to test it first, before installing
[20:41] <theonewhowas> brad_: If you only need to install, I'd just recommend the alternate install disk
[20:41] <brad_> theonewhowas: it bothers me that it panics from the livecd, though. It doesn't make me feel confident that the install from alternate won't panic
[20:42] <brad_> theonewhowas: I'd much rather have someone determine the cause, and not have it panic from the livecd
[20:42] <usser> pretender_, i had somewhat similar problem where cheese(web camera software) was receiving the same X error, turns out it didnt like ati's opensource drivers
[20:42] <theonewhowas> brad_: Well, it's a bug. Maybe there's a workaround on launchpad somewhere
[20:42] <brad_> ok
[20:42] <guntbert> nevada1920: I never heard of a "message saying drdy", please give more details
[20:43] <kristian_> if i type "md5sum -c MD5FILE" it will start echoing filenames and ok next to it. but it gives no summary if all is ok. if one or more files is not ok, will it say so at the end of the echo?
[20:43] <theonewhowas> brad_: I can almost guarantee that the alternate install disk won't panic though.
[20:44] <brad_> theonewhowas: I don't think the installer itself will panic, but the resulting installed OS more than likely will
[20:44] <theonewhowas> brad_: Well, no way to know unless you try. ;)
[20:44] <brad_> if the live cd panics, there is a very high probability that the installed version will too
[20:44] <guntbert> kristian_: try by changing one file...
[20:44] <genii> Are there any good tools to query/debug 1394 video devices? (aside from the mythtv ones)
[20:44] <ghone> What does it mean when nm-applet indicates "device is unmanaged"?
[20:44] <theonewhowas> brad_: It panicked during the boot process?
[20:44] <brad_> I'll post the panic on launchpad, and see if a kernel hacker can figure it out
[20:44] <Itaku> whats the bash command to send a message to a specific user/terminal
[20:44] <brad_> it panicked after X booted
[20:44] <Ubuntunub> I can not get ubuntu to read my wireless card even though about 1hr ago it worked... can someone help please?
[20:45] <pretender_> usser:  ok thanks
[20:45] <theonewhowas> brad_: I dunno then.
[20:45] <brad_> when quiet and splash are turned off, there is nothing out of the ordinary during boot, either
[20:45] <rahmu> linux
[20:45] <brad_> ok, yeah, I will see if a kernel hacker can figure things out
[20:45] <guntbert> brad_: I'd stay on the safe side too - maybe you wait another month, then 9.04 will be available ?
[20:45] <user___> Itaku: program write
[20:45] <nevada1920> i think its some kind of kernel panic but it still work's hoy hoy
[20:45] <kristian_> guntbert : it's on disc, but i guess i could copy files and test. :-P im tired. thansk
[20:45] <brad_> guntbert: 8.10 is panicing and 9.04 alpha 6
[20:45] <knoxville> Itaku, write
[20:45] <theonewhowas> brad_: Tried the beta?
[20:45] <brad_> guntbert: looks like a high probability of something broken in the latest kernels
[20:46] <neo_> user____: I got what you were telling me. Sorry could not figure out back then. Sometimes, head just gets blocked in stubborn way. Thanks,
[20:46] <theonewhowas> brad_: Well if the kernel loads no problem, it could be x-related.
[20:46] <neo_> user____: Solved the problem. :)
[20:46] <brad_> theonewhowas: well, I thought so too. Except there are times when I can boot, and actually use X
[20:46] <Ubuntunub> I can not get ubuntu to read my wireless card even though about 1hr ago it worked... can someone help please?
[20:46] <brad_> it still eventually panics though
[20:46] <Itaku> and how do i figure out what tty a user is on?
[20:46] <brad_> which is how I was able to grab the trace
[20:47] <user___> neo_: ok, great! :-)
[20:47] <guntbert> brad_: I understand, but I didn't suggest you use jaunty now, but anyhow: kernel panic doesn't sound like a X problem
[20:47] <brad_> someone who is familiar with the kernel might be able to figure out exactly what is happening from the trace, at least I hope so
[20:47] <brad_> yeah
[20:47] <brad_> I think it is related to the latest kernels
[20:47] <brad_> 8.04's kernel is fine

[20:59] <Ubuntunub> n8tuser: just "route -n" and "iwconfig"
[21:00] <theonewhowas> ScottG: Does the old entry for the shortcut still exist?

[21:22] <diablo>  ok i just re-installed ubunto 8.10 and completely wiped xp on my acer aspire one d150 and havent had sound i tried just about everything my sound works only on my headphones :(
[21:22] <bonez46> need help with testdisk.. for data running on drive with UBUNTU as the OS..
[21:22] <pronoy> Nith: it should guide you to the fix x screen in bios itself
[21:22] <speakman> hi folks, i'm having serious problems connecting to a fully open WLAN. Using Intel ipw2100 and Ubuntu Intrepid
[21:22] <patg7590> @diablo did you try searching for the drivers?
[21:23] <Nith> pronoy: I would but the tty's don't work, I can only get on it in single user mode and then X wasn't listening to keyboard commands (except CTRL+ALT+BACKSPACE)
[21:23] <diablo> even if the headphones work should i update or install the drivers?
[21:23] <patg7590> :diablo did you try all the different options in sound preferences? A mini I was working on had to have internal mic boost cranked to get sound from the speakers
[21:23] <pronoy> Nith: you just said you are able to login using tty
[21:24] <mogi22> hi running hardy and sound seems to fail, no errors, vlc seems to function but no sound!  how do i check/troubleshoot? and no its not muted
[21:24] <HammerHead66> speakman:  https://help.ubuntu.com/8.10/serverguide/C/networking.html
[21:24] <Nith> pronoy: I cannot log in using tty, I have to restart into single user mode
[21:24] <patg7590> @diablo its a fresh install, what do you have to lose?
[21:24] <pronoy> Nith: oh! i see
[21:24] <eseven73> mogi22: make sure its not muted
[21:24] <eseven73> teehee :P
[21:24] <pronoy> Nith: so you need the gdm to start in the other mode right ?
[21:24] <diablo> yes i ran alsamixer on terminal and everything is turned up
[21:25] <patg7590> : mogi22 try all the different sound inputs in sound preferences
[21:25] <speakman> HammerHead66: thanks, but how does that relate to my problems?
[21:25] <sericm> mogi22: double click on the volume symbol. then try moving "PCM" a little.
[21:25] <theonewhowas> diablo: Does /dev/audio exist?
[21:25] <Nith> pronoy: I tried to start it but keyboard and mouse would not work
[21:25] <neo1> ;
[21:25] <diablo> pag7590 your right nothing to lose i'm jst still anoyed cause i had trouble installing wifi-radar
[21:25] <diablo> lo
[21:25] <pronoy> pronoy: while in single user mode can you get to the screen where you can repair x
[21:25] <pronoy> ?
[21:25] <HammerHead66> speakman: it deals with everything with networking in ubuntu
[21:26] <patg7590> @ diablo installing the right sound drivers really shouldnt hurt anything
[21:26] <pronoy> Nith: while in single user mode can you get to the screen where you can repair x
[21:26] <speakman> HammerHead66: can't see it covers WIFI?
[21:26] <mogi22> eseven73, not muted.
[21:26] <HammerHead66> speakman: 1 sec
[21:26] <mogi22> patg7590, all inputs and outputs at max and not muted
[21:26] <speakman> HammerHead66: and my problems seems to be NetworkManager
[21:26] <mogi22> sericm, pcm at max
[21:26] <theonewhowas> mogi22: does /dev/audio exist?
[21:26] <patg7590> does anyone know how to fix virtual resolution? I tried resetting my xorg.conf file but it still is messed
[21:26] <HammerHead66>  speakman:   https://help.ubuntu.com/7.10/internet/C/wireless.html
[21:27] <mogi22> theonewhowas, yes and so does audio1
[21:27] <theonewhowas> patg7590: Have you tried reconfiguring xorg?
[21:27] <theonewhowas> mogi22: Model of your sound card/
[21:27] <theonewhowas> ?
[21:27] <Nith> pronoy: I'll try, but an X problem shouldn't stop the TTY's from working
[21:27] <diablo> is the last time i work on trying to fix my sound i went crazy lol
[21:27] <patg7590> :theonewwhowasyes, i think so-i treid resetting it
[21:27] <jschall> what dialup ISP will work with ubuntu? i have a friend who lives in the country, can't get anything else.
[21:27] <diablo> i'll try it right now thanks patg7590 see you guys soon
[21:27] <theonewhowas> patg7590: Open a terminal & run dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[21:28] <pronoy> Nith: my idea was once you get into the gdm you can reset the tty settings using the gui
[21:28] <speakman> HammerHead66: that looked better, thanks :)
[21:28] <theonewhowas> jschall: Possibly, but its not recommended as all software is downloaded over the internet
[21:28] <HammerHead66> speakman: np
[21:28] <LjL> jschall: just about anything that doesn't use strange proprietary little Windows programs to let you dialup.
[21:28] <LjL> !dialup > jschall    (jschall, see the private message from ubottu)
[21:28] <eseven73> a lot of times running this fixes sound issues... sudo alsa force-reload
[21:28] <Nith> pronoy: ok, I'm restarting it into single user mode and will try to fix x now
[21:28] <jschall> LjL: exactly, i want to know what ISP to use.

[21:29] <pronoy> cool
[21:29] <LjL> jschall: stay away from AOL i guess, but most the rest should be ok
[21:29] <sericm> mogi22: max is not important. the important thing is that you move it around a little bit to wake him up. works with my machine sometimes...
[21:29] <LjL> !jaunty > LordKenTheGreat    (LordKenTheGreat, see the private message from ubottu)
[21:29] <Rafael> anybody has experience with ebox and samba om ubuntu
[21:29] <eseven73> LordKenTheGreat:  ask that in #ubuntu+1
[21:29] <jschall> LjL: my friend currently uses AOL, wants to switch to linux
[21:29] <LordKenTheGreat> Sorry.
[21:29] <patg7590> : Lordkenthegrat i think all the jaunty talk is moved to #ubuntu1
[21:29] <speakman> HammerHead66: was it possible https://help.ubuntu.com/8.10/internet/C/troubleshooting.html you meant? ;)
[21:29] <waldir> I'm having some disk space problems: the partition where ubuntu was installed is full. Is it possible to move the OS to another partition?
[21:29] <ddd707> ops

[21:29] <mogi22> sericm, ok tried, no luck
[21:30] <theonewhowas> mogi22: Try lsmod | grep snd
[21:30] <jklock> chotaz: yeah whats up
[21:30] <patg7590> : the onewhowas I ran that but it was all about keyboard layouts....
[21:30] <theonewhowas> waldir: You can expand an ext3 partition
[21:30] <erUSUL> waldir: it may be easier to move just /home (if you have media files they end up eating space)
[21:30] <sericm> mogi22: sorry. then i'm at the end of my wisdom.
[21:30] <LordKenTheGreat> And on another note, I just started using Launchpad.
[21:30] <eseven73> !latest | chotaz
[21:30] <mogi22> theonewhowas, ok what line do u want?

[21:30] <HammerHead66> speakman: I'm happy you found it
[21:30] <theonewhowas> patg7590: Yes, it automatically generated /etc/X11/xorg.conf though
[21:30] <jklock> chotaz: okay do you have any of my links from before?
[21:30] <theonewhowas> mogi22: All of it :P
[21:31] <cubas> hey, I have ALL : host.ip.address in /etc/hosts.allow ...and still I can't ssh to the ubuntu
[21:31] <patg7590> theonewhowas: can i simulate a reboot to test?

[21:32] <dougl> :)
[21:32] <waldir> theonewhowas: I had a 16GB free space (unpartitioned) set aside in the end of my HD for ubuntu but for some reason the installer chose instead to create a partition in the remaining 5GB of my 50GB data partition... which is in the middle of two ntfs partitions

[21:32] <pronoy> man thats irritating

[21:33] <theonewhowas> waldir: You can use the livecd & gparted to rearrange & maximize space.

[21:34] <argentum> and
[21:34] <BobTheBlueBerry> I finally got something by changing a boot option

[21:34] <mogi22> theonewhowas, b/c the weird thing is this only happens every other reboot or so.  sometimes the sound really does work!
[21:34] <waldir> theonewhowas: thanks, I'll try that
[21:34] <mogi22> theonewhowas, hmm ok yes some sites i hit today do have flash

Some index files failed to download, they have been ignored, or old ones used instead." what is the problem guys? w
[21:36] <unitedpotsmokers> hat should i do?
[21:36] <Rafael> help with samba
[21:36] <mogi22> theonewhowas, hmm yes screensaver did kick in an hour ago or so
[21:36] <BobTheBlueBerry> (EE) Failed to load module "type1" (module does not exist, 0)
[21:36] <argentum> so CADEGA?
[21:36] <pronoy> argentum its paid and maybe crossover too but wine's the best
[21:36] <theonewhowas> unitedpotsmokers: That web address is invalid
[21:36] <argentum> i see
[21:36] <Nith> pronoy: I've run xfix from single user mode but upon regular boot it dies right after login. I tried single user mode drop to root shell with startx but X ignores input
[21:36] <argentum> so wine is the best?
[21:36] <pronoy> argentum: wine is not a window emulator
[21:36] <argentum> i see
[21:36] <theonewhowas> mogi22: Sorry, but would you mind restarting?
[21:36] <argentum> i thought it was an emulator of windows
[21:36] <unitedpotsmokers> theonewhowas, but i copy & paste the address from miro website
[21:36] <BobTheBlueBerry> What is the type1 module and why does nvidia-xconfig put it in xorg.conf? Should I just comment it out?
[21:37] <argentum> ok
[21:37] <pronoy> Nith: man...i am not sure what to do
[21:37] <theonewhowas> This file (http://repoubuntusoftware.info/dists/harty/all/binary-i386/Packages.gz) doesn't exist
[21:37] <pronoy> Nith: repost ur query again.
[21:37] <Nith> ok, thanks anyway
[21:37] <theonewhowas> Oh wow
[21:37] <theonewhowas> harty
[21:37] <argentum> thanks
[21:38] <chotaz> jklock: kk, back, should i start by installing restricted-extras?
[21:38] <theonewhowas> unitedpotsmokers: (http://repoubuntusoftware.info/dists/hardy/all/binary-i386/Packages.gz)
[21:38] <pronoy> argentum: if you want you can go for open source games...i am sure they have a steam counterpart game like open arena for quake
[21:38] <Nith> Whenever i login to GDM or to a tty, that program seems to end immediately. In single user mode, x server ignores mouse and keyboard. Anyone have any ideas?
[21:38] <theonewhowas> unitedpotsmokers: Fixed the typo
[21:38] <argentum> steam counterpart?
[21:38] <argentum> open-source games...
[21:38] <unitedpotsmokers> theonewhowas, : oh, thanks a lot my friend. i will try now. i just copy & paste from their website. thanks again..
[21:39] <argentum> What if i want to play a half life modification
[21:39] <argentum> is there a way to successfully run it in linux without wine
[21:39] <HammerHead66> Nith: are you on laptop or desktop?
[21:39] <jklock> chotaz: did you see my messages?
[21:39] <argentum> or would that require lots of tweaking
[21:39] <Nith> HammerHead66: I'm on a laptop
[21:39] <argentum> i wish someone would just create repositories for those games.
[21:39] <pronoy> argentum: upload the mod as you do on windows
[21:39] <argentum> so we could all play them on linux
[21:39] <BobTheBlueBerry> bother
[21:39] <theonewhowas> argentum: windows binaries often are not compatible with linux. Half life is not compatible.
[21:39] <argentum> damn it
[21:39] <pronoy> argentum: the registery and the engine are replicated by wine on linux
[21:39] <argentum> I know how to use it on Wine
[21:40] <argentum> but the problem is
[21:40] <argentum> i lose FPS by about 50 %
[21:40] <argentum> when i use wine
[21:40] <mogi22> theonewhowas, ok i restarted 2x, first time worked.  2nd time i did some on web and now sound fails again.
[21:40] <eseven73> one line
[21:40] <argentum> even when i close down all of my compiz graphicals
[21:40] <argentum> maybe a better graphics card would fix that
[21:40] <pronoy> argentum: fps_max 200
[21:40] <mogi22> theonewhowas, and i let it go into screensaver too
[21:40] <argentum> roger that.
[21:40] <HammerHead66> when you boot up I want you to tap the "Num Lock " button on key board til it lights up and if it goes out tap again til it's on again ok
[21:40] <eseven73> argentum: this isnt msn, easy on that enter key ;)
[21:40] <pronoy> argentum: yeah graphics card always does taht
[21:40] <pronoy> :)
[21:40] <mogi22> theonewhowas, can screensaver really cause sound to fail?
[21:40] <bluenzo^nix> i have a .tar file, how do I create a .tar.gz
[21:40] <theonewhowas> mogi22: Screensaver shouldn't matter. Suspend sometimes doesn't wake sound again.
[21:40] <jklock> HAHA
[21:40] <argentum> I'm using such an old graphics card that might be why roger that
[21:41] <erUSUL> bluenzo^nix: gzip file.tar
[21:41] <pronoy> theonewhowas: windows binaries aren't supposed to work with linux
[21:41] <argentum> right
[21:41] <bluenzo^nix> ty erUSUL
[21:41] <efeX^> eh.
[21:41] <mogi22> theonewhowas, ok well it doesnt suspend
[21:41] <theonewhowas> pronoy: If they utilize .NET, there is a chance they can
[21:41] <mogi22> theonewhowas, its a desktop
[21:41] <HammerHead66> Nith:when you boot up I want you to tap the "Num Lock " button on key board til it lights up and if it goes out tap again til it's on again ok
[21:41] <erUSUL> bluenzo^nix: tar can create that directly if you pass it the z option
[21:41] <efeX^> uhh mono..
[21:41] <pronoy> theonewhowas: .NET  ? why would they run even on .NET ?
[21:42] <theonewhowas> mogi22: Ok, then.. I don't know. That's weird.
[21:42] <maragaret> what do I do if spelt a username wrong, how do I edit it, without creating a new user and have to set a bunch of permissions
[21:42] <erUSUL> bluenzo^nix: e.g. tar czf file.tar.gz dir_to_tar_up/
[21:42] <Nith> HammerHead66: the keyboard's caps does work. I can also kill X via CTRL+ALT+BACKSPACE or switch back to the tty's
[21:42] <theonewhowas> maragaret: You have to create a new username w/ & set a bunch of permissions. :)
[21:42] <erUSUL> maragaret: man usermod
[21:42] <bluenzo^nix> ty
[21:42] <SeViLLa> HammerHead66: hey it did not work is there a way to go back to hardy from 8.10 without reinstalling
[21:42] <theonewhowas> maragaret: Disregard
[21:43] <HammerHead66> SeViLLa: I don't know but keep asking around
[21:43] <HammerHead66>  Nith: ok 1 min
[21:43] <erUSUL> !downgrade | SeViLLa
[21:43] <mogi22> theonewhowas, damn.
[21:43] <SeViLLa> ubottu: k
[21:44] <erUSUL> !bot | SeViLLa
[21:44] <theonewhowas> mogi22: Is it just w/ firefox that you have this problem?
[21:44] <pronoy> SeViLLa: why would you want to downgrade ?
[21:44] <HammerHead66>  Nith:   https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Troubleshooting   did you try this?
[21:44] <gartral> ok... this is really REALLY annoying, i can;t use the suggested spelling feature in pidgin, the list shows up, but it ignores what ever i select, im running pidgin 2.5.2 because 2.5.5 isnt in repos yet. this is really beginning to be a problem...
[21:45] <PatrickGleason> patg7590 here- I was getting help about resetting xorg.conf for a messed up virtual display
[21:45] <Mooqball> can i upgrade to jaunty beta without a full format
[21:45] <theonewhowas> gartral: The plugin? Or aspell?
[21:45] <PatrickGleason> from theonewhowas
[21:45] <Nith> HammerHead66: I have not, I'll go through it now
[21:45] <HammerHead66>  Nith: k
[21:45] <maragaret> erUSUL: sudo usermod -l corey cory  ?
[21:45] <BobTheBlueBerry> YEAY! Kernel BUG!!!!
[21:46] <PatrickGleason> theonewhowas: i ran that line and it never rebooted it just got stuck on setting powermanagement settings
[21:46] <SeViLLa> pronoy: i was using hardy and i didnt have any problems at all until i did a dist upgrade now the X doesnt work properly
[21:46] <BobTheBlueBerry> I'M SO HAPPY!!!!
[21:46] <gartral> theonewhowas: whichever is installed with pidgin, i know in windows that's aspelll
[21:46] <pronoy> SeViLLa: what's the problem...ask away
[21:46] <WorldWar_III> hello
[21:46] <WorldWar_III> any one???
[21:46] <ikonia> WorldWar_III: anyone what ?
[21:47] <PatrickGleason> WorldWar3: hello
[21:47] <theonewhowas> PatrickGleason: Can you get to a console @ all? Because that setting just reset xorg.conf and doesn't affect anything else
[21:47] <pronoy> anyone wanna try to save the world i guess ?
[21:47] <pronoy> :)
[21:47] <ikonia> pronoy: what ?
[21:47] <SeViLLa> pronoy: it tell me that my display, and graphics, couldn't be detected
[21:47] <theonewhowas> gartral: Make sure aspell in installed
[21:47] <erUSUL> maragaret: if corey is the corrct one and cory what you have now yes. note that the manpage says that you have to change the home manually
[21:47] <PatrickGleason> theonewho was- i shut it down manually
[21:47] <pronoy> ikonia: kidding man
[21:47] <WorldWar_III> #israel
[21:47] <SeViLLa> pronoy: then i have to boot in low graphics mode
[21:47] <ikonia> WorldWar_III: do you need help with something ?
[21:47] <PatrickGleason> theonewhowas: I just held the power button down
[21:47] <gartral> theonewhowas: i can click a choise maybe once out of every 50 tries, but most of the time, its little more use than a spelling reference
[21:48] <ikonia> !pm > WorldWar_III
[21:48] <WorldWar_III> yes
[21:48] <ikonia> WorldWar_III: how can we help ?
[21:48] <theonewhowas> gartral: You want it to automagically fix your words?
[21:48] <pronoy> SeViLLa: gimme the output of this file gedit etc/X11/xorg.conf on pastebin
[21:48] <HammerHead66> theonewhowas: lol
[21:48] <theonewhowas> PatrickGleason: I don't know what happened, but that resets xorg.conf.
[21:49] <gartral> theonewhowas: no, i want to be able to select from the list, instead of having to memorise how each damn word is spelled
[21:49] <SeViLLa> pronoy: ive never used pastebin
[21:49] <SeViLLa> give me a second
[21:49] <PatrickGleason> theonewhowas: What can I do besides resetting that file to fix my resolution? everything just looks fuzzy ever since i plugged it into my tv with svideo
[21:49] <pronoy> SeViLLa: go to paste.ubuntu.com
[21:50] <gartral> theonewhowas: and aspell IS installed, but i lack the ability to select a word it gives me
[21:50] <bluenzo^nix> I am having theme problems. I installed a theme, the theme was fine. I had a hard time installing icons. I believe I finally have. Then it says the theme may not look proper gtk2-engines-ubuntulooks wasnt installed. I just now installed 'ubuntulooks' but now I get the error "This theme will not look as intended because the required GTK+ theme engine " is not installed.
[21:50] <pronoy> SeviLLa: brb
[21:50] <SeViLLa> pronoy: ok

[21:50] <Ceno3x> Hi
[21:50] <theonewhowas> gartral: Right-clicking in pidgin on a misspelled word displays a context menu. One of the options should be spelling suggestions.. Check under that menu?
[21:50] <theonewhowas> gartral: I literally just used it.
[21:51] <gartral> theonewhowas: UGH i HAVE that, but it wont let me click a word!
[21:51] <Ceno3x> Does anyone know of a mirror that still has the original Ubuntu 8.04 for download? I can only find ubuntu 8.04.2 and need to do some testing...
[21:51] <gartral> theonewhowas: i get a nice big list of suggested spellings, but it ignores my clicks!
[21:51] <graingert> Ceno3x-> but why?
[21:51] <theonewhowas> PatrickGleason: You could try appearance settings. Changing the settings for displaying font, etc. And you can also manually edit /etc/X11/xorg.conf for a manual resolution
[21:51] <theonewhowas> gartral: But no where else?
[21:52] <theonewhowas> gartral: Clicks are only ignored for that specific context menu?
[21:52] <Ceno3x> graingert, I've been experiencing problems with my graphics card and I think the first time I installed it in april I didn't have those problems
[21:52] <gartral> theonewhowas: exactly, ive reinstalled pidgin 5 times, and aspell twice, and STILL i have this problem, and it seems localised to pidgin
[21:52] <Ceno3x> but there's only one way to find out...
[21:52] <Zzeiss> Help on watching YouTube videos... a very few work, most don't.  Any suggestions?
[21:52] <graingert> Ceno3x-> hmmmmm
[21:52] <graingert> Ceno3x-> whatg flavor/
[21:52] <Vaylor> hi all
[21:52] <graingert> Ceno3x-> what flavour?*
[21:53] <Ceno3x> the normal
[21:53] <chop> Zzeiss: reinstall flash?
[21:53] <theonewhowas> gartral: That is a most unusual problem. Is it possibly a problem with X?
[21:53] <Ceno3x> I tried googling, but damn it's all 8.04.2 ...
[21:53] <gartral> theonewhowas: i noticed 2.5.5 has some security and bug fixes, but the devs dont seem to think its worth upping in the repos, for some crazy reason
[21:53] <theonewhowas> Well, but then there would be problems elsewhere..
[21:53] <Zzeiss> chop: gnash?  Hmmm...
[21:53] <gartral> theonewhowas: i dont think so, as i seem to remember hitting it in windows like a year ago
[21:54] <theonewhowas> gartral: Well, 9.04 is about to be released. Idk. You could go complain to the package maintainer
[21:54] <pronoy> SeViLLa: there ?
[21:54] <theonewhowas> gartral: Or compile it for yourself
[21:54] <HammerHead66>  pronoy:  she logged out
[21:55] <gartral> theonewhowas: no, the maintainer wants it included, but conanical doesnt seem too think its worth putting in, doesnt meet the feature freeze
[21:55] <SeViLLa> pronoy: yes
[21:55] <HammerHead66>  pronoy: ok maybe not my bad
[21:55] <SeViLLa> pronoy: whats the link again
[21:55] <pronoy> :)
[21:55] <theonewhowas> gartral: I suppose the security updates critical enough. :\.
[21:55] <theonewhowas> gartral: Compile it yourself, I guess
[21:55] <pronoy> SeViLLa:  paste.ubuntu.com
[21:55] <pronoy> !pastebin | SeViLLa
[21:56] <gartral> theonewhowas: i tryed, i dont have access to some files it seems
[21:56] <theonewhowas> gartral: What errors does it throw?
[21:56] <PatrickGleason> theonewhowas: do you know of a good guide to do this? manually edit the virtual resolution in xconf.org?
[21:56] <HammerHead66> SeViLLa: http://paste.ubuntu.com/
[21:56] <gartral> i also found a prebuilt on getdeb, but its only compatible with the xx.7 kernal, and im not downgrading for pidgin
[21:57] <gartral> theonewhowas: i dont remember, i tryed last week, and got so angry i deleted the source and everything related
[21:57] <[oC]_HolyFather> I have a Power Mac G4 and I want to install Kubuntu on it ------ I downloaded both 6.10(Edgy Eft) and 7.10(Gutsy) PPC versions and all atempts to install failed
[21:58] <Zzeiss> chop: no joy.  Black screen only.
[21:58] <barry_> JOIN Lenz
[21:58] <gartral> theonewhowas: i asked in #pidgin, they say its cause i dont have the right dev libs, i dont see how that should matter
[21:58] <BobTheBlueBerry> Does anyone know what a kernel paging request is?
[21:58] <theonewhowas> PatrickGleason: Start here & go from there https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Wacom
[21:59] <theonewhowas> gartral: Well if it depends on those libs.. apt-get them or else compile those too! :D
[21:59] <PatrickGleason> theonewhowas: are you sure that was for me? with the Wacom tabletS? like for drawing?
[22:00] <ronny_> hola
[22:00] <Margaret> ok soneone just told how to use usermod -l to change a mis-spelt user name but I used the kuser in kde to edit the home directory and now I cannot enter the /home directory

[22:00] <gartral> theonewhowas: i dont see why a normal user should have to worry about all this, why is it that the ubuntu repos cant be upgraded, when there are obviosly SEVERE issues with the current code?!?!?!?!?!?!?
[22:00] <HammerHead66> BobTheBlueBerry: you have to download the file
[22:00] <SeViLLa> pronoy: how do i post it to irc
[22:01] <pronoy> SeViLLa: the link paste the link on the irc
[22:01] <BobTheBlueBerry> what file?
[22:01] <ronny_> hola donad estas la mujer de aquí
[22:01] <artemis> hi, where is the file that says which modules should be loaded durring start-up ??

[22:01] <guntbert> !es | ronny_
[22:02] <HammerHead66> BobTheBlueBerry:  it's about kernel paging request

[22:12] <waldir> Hi, I am using the live cd to install ubuntu. the only partitioning option it's offering me is "guided - use entire disk", but I have other partitions defined with data on them. will this erase the other partitions I have?
[22:12] <sprinkmeier> lovre, reinstall? do you have backups?
[22:12] <pronoy> SeViLLa: what ?? are you sure...no window of anysort ??
[22:12] <joetheodd> Is there any way to adjust overall gain with pulseaudio? I know my laptop speakers can go loud.. they're really quiet.
[22:13] <runes> sprinkmeier, weird you'd think that for linux one of the most basic things would be present (for a friendly distro) suc as an easy to use text editor
[22:13] <joetheodd> s/loud/louder
[22:13] <sprinkmeier> waldir, try it, there's a bit "warning, about to write changes to disk" dialog that you can always abort on if you're unsure
[22:13] <lovre> sprinkmeier: so that is the only option?
[22:13] <BobTheBlueBerry> it says here "e-GeForce 6200 Graphics Card" on the box
[22:13] <SeViLLa> pronoy: i mean there is nothing in the window
[22:13] <sprinkmeier> runes, like nano, vi, gedit?
[22:13] <waldir> sprinkmeier: ok... but it's scary :)
[22:13] <pronoy> SeViLLa: this means your graphics card isn't attached properly or something
[22:13] <gartral> lovre: this is something ive hit, you need to completly remover what bits of wubi are installed, and run a full disk check on your next reboot, then it should work
[22:13] <sprinkmeier> waldir, backups!
[22:14] <runes> sprinkmeier, some articles I read said nano and gedit do add the cr  figured I'd ask here fi that is the case?
[22:14] <waldir> sprinkmeier: I'd have to buy another HD for that :(
[22:14] <gartral> ubottu | sprinkmeier
[22:14] <guntbert> waldir: maybe there is no space left on your disk?
[22:14] <sprinkmeier> lovre, problably not, but I'm not very familiar with how wubi works. I assum eit creates a huge file which contains the whole install?
[22:14] <SeViLLa> pronoy: so what should i do
[22:14] <pronoy> SeViLLa: cuz its not detecting it....if it were detecting it ..the appropriate drivers would have been displayed
[22:14] <gartral> sprinkmeier | ubottu
[22:14] <lovre> gartral: what do you mean by "you need to completly remover what bits of wubi are installed"
[22:14] <emma> gartral: what are you trying to do?
[22:14] <Kozuch> Looking for some folks to takl on #ict4d
[22:14] <pronoy> SeViLLa: your on a laptop or a desktop ?
[22:14] <BobTheBlueBerry> ubuntu just freezes and messes up with this card
[22:15] <falstaff> my screen goes to standby after exact 30 minutes, but i've disabled it in gnome's power settings.... any idea?
[22:15] <lovre> sprinkmeier: i dont think its that simple as one file.....
[22:15] <SeViLLa> pronoy: laptop
[22:15] <unitedpotsmokers> guys. if we have a word document created by microsoft office 2007, and we want to open it with open office 3, and the problem is it cant view like microsoft word 2007, the format change, how to solve this problem?
[22:15] <Palermo> abend
[22:15] <pronoy> HammerHead66: what if i were to edit my xorg.conf without having installed anysort of drivers for my card ?
[22:15] <SeViLLa> pronoy: dell inspirion 6oom
[22:15] <gartral> falstaff: does it have its own power managment?
[22:15] <sprinkmeier> runes, to be honest I don't know/care, it Just Works(tm) for me. As I said, unix2dos and dos2unix can be used to enforce the CR/LF-iness you require post-edit.
[22:16] <runes> thanx sprinkmeier
[22:16] <spc_> hey guys.. i have a really really really basic question... i've never had to deal with this before.. how do i change to a directory with a space in terminal (Virtual Machines)
[22:16] <HammerHead66> pronoy: I don't know I have never tried that
[22:16] <sprinkmeier> waldir, I usually find that that's cheaper than risking loads of time/data. YMMV of course...
[22:16] <pronoy> chronic: any way to check whether a hardware is plugged in or not ? like a scan or something
[22:16] <ikonia> sprinkmeier: escape char
[22:16] <ikonia> sprinkmeier: cd direct\ tory
[22:16] <emma> unitedpotsmokers: maybe convert it to .doc in ms word and then open the doc with oo.o ?
[22:16] <falstaff> gartral: its a tv, so no, it shouldn't... it is connected over hdmi, and i can see at my av-receiver that i lost hdmi signal
[22:16] <pronoy> SeViLLa: did you run any other OS other than ubuntu ?
[22:17] <sprinkmeier> ikonia, ?
[22:17] <waldir> guntbert: this is what's weird. I have a 16GB free partition, but the installer is just ignoring it. I am actually reinstalling ubuntu cause the first time I installed it the guided option was to use the remaining 5GB from my data partition (even though the 16GB unpartitioned space was there on purpose and it detected it as free space! -- it afterwards formatted it as ext3 but doesnt seem to be using it..)
[22:17] <bluenzo^ubuntu> How do you edit the settings of a screensaver? :|
[22:17] <user___> spc_: cd my\ house
[22:17] <SeViLLa> pronoy: windows xp was the origanal
[22:17] <ikonia> sprinkmeier: \ is an escape char sprinkmeier so escape the space with \
[22:17] <pronoy> SeViLLa: did your card run on that ?
[22:17] <sprinkmeier> bluenzo^ubuntu, system->pref->screensaver
[22:17] <SeViLLa> pronoy: yes
[22:17] <Absolute0> Is ubuntu 32bit version more stable than the 64bit version?
[22:18] <emma> Absolute0: I personaly don't think so.
[22:18] <spc_> thanks user_____
[22:18] <sprinkmeier> ikonia, I know, I just don't remember asking about it.
[22:18] <waldir> guntbert: can you explain me why it did that? :( I was puzzled
[22:18] <pronoy> SeViLLa: this is wierd...your card is plugged in but not detected
[22:18] <unitedpotsmokers> emma : thanks for reply. i don't have microsoft word 2007, i only use open office. the word document belong to my friend.. but now that document have something to fix, and im afraid, if i fix them with open office their format change
[22:18] <ikonia> sprinkmeier: ooh sorry, I must have typed the wrong nick
[22:18] <Absolute0> emma: no 64 bit version, flash problems etc..
[22:18] <Absolute0> emma: talking about other distros...
[22:18] <Absolute0> *no 64 bit wine version
[22:18] <gartral> falstaff: no clue, i dont even havea dvi monitor here, but at school, we had these dumb monitors that went powersave after an hour, and they did it regardless of what you were doing, if if the comp was even on
[22:18] <HammerHead66> pronoy: on that card I seen a driver for windows but not in the Linux section in ATI Driver Download
[22:19] <guntbert> waldir: sorry, I'm afraid I cannot explain that - its been a while since I installed ubuntu (apart from virtual machines, where I didn't care about partitioning)
[22:19] <pronoy> HammerHead66: ATI Rv250 ?
[22:19] <gartral> unitedpotsmokers: tell your friend to dump word for open office ;)
[22:19] <emma> Absolute0: I have used 64 bit exclusively since Hardy and there are no problems that I would attribute to 64 bit. It works fine. And the Flash issue is no longer an issue. One thing to keep in mind is that you should have at least 4GB of RAM in order to see any benefit from 64 bit.
[22:19] <Absolute0> irc.ubuntu.com is freenode :)
[22:19] <HammerHead66> pronoy:yea
[22:19] <BobTheBlueBerry> does anyone have experience with getting nVidia drivers to work?
[22:20] <Absolute0> emma: why 4gig?
[22:20] <pronoy> SeViLLa: your card is ATI Radeon 9000 Rv250 ?
[22:20] <Margaret> Hi, I am talking from windows box now, but I have managed to lock myself out of /home/cory when I was trying to fix a typo in the username eg. usermod -l corey cory
[22:20] <unitedpotsmokers> gartral, : lol...
[22:20] <Absolute0> emma: all I care about is 64 bit ints in C :)
[22:20] <SeViLLa> pronoy: correct
[22:20] <Absolute0> emma: well any time you add ram you get faster speeds.
[22:20] <Absolute0> processors don't add much
[22:21] <emma> Absolute0: has to do with how 64bit works. It's over my head though so you would have to google it. 4 GB is the minimum to where 64bit starts making a difference. 32 bit cannot handle 4GB or better so if you have more than 4GB in yoru computer it doesn't get used unless its 64 bit (I think)
[22:21] <crdlb> pronoy: there is no proprietary driver for that card
[22:21] <Margaret> I have tried sudo usermod -d -m cory /home/cory /home/corey
[22:21] <waldir> guntbert: I tried the manual partitioning option but it requested information I was unsure about :( I'll try sprinkmeier suggestion and follow the guided "use entire disk" option and see what it says afterwards
[22:21] <pronoy> SeViLLa: ok this is gonna be fun...we're gonna edit ur xorg.conf
[22:21] <erUSUL> Margaret: just rename the directory to the new username and chown it if neccesary from recovery mode
[22:21] <falstaff> gartral: hm, just found xset, with which you can forces dpms on
[22:21] <sprinkmeier> Absolute0, speed comes from removing bottlenecks. those may be CPU, but usually RAM (as you said). most systems are sold with woefully little RAM to make them look cheaper.
[22:21] <gartral> BobTheBlueBerry: oh.. nVidia/ATi drivers have few builds that work outside of heavy modification for ubuntu, you should only use the restriced drivers manager's drivers
[22:21] <falstaff> gartral: i try this, maybe it helps... thanks anyway
[22:22] <SeViLLa> pronoy: ok im up for it
[22:22] <stealth_> need help my sound doesn't work on the internet. ubuntu 64bit
[22:22] <HammerHead66> pronoy: hay I found the driver  at ATI for linux
[22:22] <BobTheBlueBerry> too bad I can't get into GNOME to enable them
[22:22] <kolby> tu-offtopic
[22:22] <pronoy> crdlb: what bout fgrlx ?
[22:22] <kolby> ubuntu-offtopic
[22:22] <emma> sprinkmeier: would you agree that if you have 4 or more GB of ram in your system, you won't really use the extra ram if you have 32 bit?
[22:22] <crdlb> pronoy: doesn't support it
[22:22] <gartral> BobTheBlueBerry: you dont have onnboard video, or is this a laptop?
[22:23] <emma> what channel mode is +e ?
[22:23] <BobTheBlueBerry> I have onboard, but it's Intel, and it sucks
[22:23] <guntbert> waldir: if I remember correctly "guided" means there is a proposal which you can accept or decline, so go with that (be careful with your clicks on [ok] though :-))
[22:23] <crdlb> emma: ban exempt
[22:23] <Mark_Jones> Hi guys, Im now realizing Im having trouble with this new USB PCI card.When I boot with a drive connected, it mounts the drive and all is fine.If I unplug the drive durring a session, and then plug it back in it seems as if Ubuntu drops the USB card completely no power or anything coming from it. Or could it be a power supply issue and how can I tell?
[22:23] <sprinkmeier> emma, I believe that different OS's have different RAM limits. IIRC windows-32 bit can't use more than about 3.5G, not sure about Linuxes, I've never had that much RAM to play with :-(
[22:23] <emma> crdlb: what's that mean?
[22:23] <gartral> emma: its impossible to address more than 4 gb ram with a 32bit os, period, unless you have special hardware
[22:24] <BobTheBlueBerry> X.Org doesn't want to use onboard when it can try and fail to use my nVidia card
[22:24] <guntbert> kolby: mybe you should type /join #....
[22:24] <erUSUL> sprinkmeier: emma it is the same on linux and windows how much you can use over 3GB depends on pci address space bios configuration
[22:24] <Absolute0> 4gigs of ram is only usefull for servers or super needy games
[22:24] <waldir> guntbert: I didnt get any confirmation dialog, it's already asking me for my username and such... does it come at the end of the installer instead?
[22:24] <HammerHead66> SeViLLa:     pronoy:                            http://support.amd.com/us/gpudownload/Pages/linux64-radeon-prer200.aspx
[22:24] <Absolute0> otherwise its useless
[22:24] <Absolute0> i have 3 and it runs just fine..
[22:24] <emma> gartral: right so that's why people who have more than 4GB should use 64 bits.
[22:24] <crdlb> emma: mibbit is banned, but mibbit users can get the bot to exempt them for the session (after verifying that their host is not banned)
[22:24] <sprinkmeier> erUSUL, thanks!
[22:24] <BobTheBlueBerry> same thing happens with 8.04 live cd
[22:24] <kolby> guntbert: I misstyped a few times
[22:24] <erUSUL> sprinkmeier: for example a 512 MB graphic card may still 512MB from your ram
[22:24] <pronoy> crdlb: man....
[22:24] <pronoy> HammerHead66: link please
[22:24] <pronoy> crdlb, HammerHead66: what if i use AIGLX instead of proprietary fglrx with XGL ?
[22:24] <SeViLLa> HammerHead66: whats up?
[22:24] <HammerHead66> 8.10 is 64 bit right?
[22:24] <Margaret> erUSUL, I was just using tty1 instead of recovery, sudo mv /home/corey /home/cory and then sudo chown 7XX /home/cory
[22:24] <emma> crdlb: that's quite.... involved.
[22:25] <BobTheBlueBerry> rc-default main process terminated
[22:25] <guntbert> waldir: sorry, I really don't remember, but you *might* want to try it with  virtual machine before
[22:25] <waldir> guntbert: that "100%" for ubuntu is really making me concerned...
[22:25] <crdlb> SeViLLa: make sure that xserver-xorg-video-ati is installed
[22:25] <guntbert> kolby: ;-))
[22:25] <pronoy> SeViLLa: are you using 64 bit or 32 bit OS >
[22:25] <erUSUL> Margaret: chown -R newuser:newuser /home/newuser
[22:25] <crdlb> pronoy: what does AIGLX have to do with this?
[22:25] <Margaret> erUSUL, read = 4 write =2 and exe=1 right
[22:26] <Margaret> erUSUL, what does -R stand for
[22:26] <SeViLLa> pronoy: 32 bit
[22:26] <erUSUL> Margaret: yes but we do not want to change modes we want to change the owner
[22:26] <pronoy> crdlb: you see if we use AIGLX instead of fglrx the graphic problem might get solved....because the latter is very problematic
[22:26] <Mark_Jones> When you add a new PCI card do you generally need to do a fresh install or not?
[22:26] <waldir> guntbert:  however I tried one step back and it shows my system as it is again.. I guess I'll move forward. wish me luck :)
[22:26] <erUSUL> Margaret: you are confusing chown with chmod
[22:26] <rakudave> emma: it's not quite true, I have a 32Bit OS with 4GB RAM. You need to enable the PEA-extension
[22:26] <guntbert> waldir: I understand, maybe you should ask the channel again about the installation, or ...
[22:26] <crdlb> pronoy: those are apples and oranges :)
[22:26] <erUSUL> Margaret: -R aplies the change to the folder and all subfolders and files beneath it
[22:27] <HammerHead66>  SeViLLa:   32bit ------------------------------>  http://support.amd.com/us/gpudownload/Pages/linux64-radeon-prer200.aspx
[22:27] <crdlb> SeViLLa: was it installed?
[22:27] <Margaret> erUSUL, recursive
[22:27] <andres_> hey guys is there a way to get color to work on vlc player
[22:27] <guntbert> waldir: .... or you start with the live CD and use gparted from there
[22:27] <SeViLLa> crdlb: i will check
[22:27] <waldir> that's what I am doing
[22:27] <jpowermacg4> andres_, what you mean by color?
[22:27] <crdlb> HammerHead66: that would require using an _ancient_ version of X
[22:27] <waldir> guntbert: I am using the live cd
[22:27] <pronoy> crdlb: oh !! i get it....it wasn't installed in the first place.... !! sorry
[22:27] <andres_> i have all the color contrast of the dvd coming in mixed
[22:28] <andres_> like its all unbalance
[22:28] <pronoy> crdlb: yeah...you're right...its got nothing to do with AIGLX
[22:28] <Mark_Jones> andres you have libdvdcss installed?
[22:28] <andres_> i have the hue settings configured etc... and it black and white right now
[22:28] <andres_> yah
[22:28] <andres_> i wasnt able to play encrypted dvds until i install libdvdcss
[22:28] <Mark_Jones> right
[22:28] <mrjulio> hi every1, does anyone have any idea why ubuntu 8.0.4 recognises only 3Gb out of 4Gb on my Dell Studio 1357
[22:28] <guntbert> waldir: then you can have a look at your harddisk with gparted before you start the install
[22:28] <andres_> that at least let me play commercial discs
[22:28] <BobTheBlueBerry>   init: rc-default main process (5572) terminated with status 139ault
[22:28] <Mark_Jones> andres what about ubuntu restricted extras?
[22:28] <LjL> mrjulio: it's quite normal, if you aren't on 64bit
[22:29] <andres_> but whether i have a decrypted dvd or encyrpted dvd it still playes with the colors jacked
[22:29] <mrjulio> hmmm...
[22:29] <waldir> guntbert: I have, but this doesnt give me any more choices with the installer
[22:29] <andres_> i have restritcted extras installed as well
[22:29] <Mark_Jones> hmm
[22:29] <waldir> I could of course try the manual install
[22:29] <andres_> yah that is what i said
[22:29] <Mark_Jones> andreas do you have any restricted video drivers installed?
[22:29] <andres_> you think this is something to do with my video card/
[22:29] <dude_sweet> hi all!!
[22:29] <andres_> no that i know of
[22:30] <SeViLLa> crdlb: yes its at its latest version
[22:30] <sprinkmeier> waldir, what's the other OS? does it still boot (I've not seen this sort of behaviour and I'm just wondering if something is messed up)
[22:30] <andres_> atm nothing than the default i think
[22:30] <andres_> let me double check
[22:30] <Mark_Jones> maybe you could try enabling one and see if its better
[22:30] <andres_> oh...
[22:30] <pronoy> crdlb: yeah...you're right...its got nothing to do with AIGLX
[22:30] <BobTheBlueBerry> gartral: so should I use the nVidia drivers from synaptic?
[22:30] <bedo2991> I've got a ATI Radeon HD 4800 and a Samsung SyncMaster 932MW connected with a HDMI DVI cable. From now on, I can't enable the graphic effects (before when it was connected with a VGA cable it used to work).
[22:30] <andres_> i actually have the my nvidia drivers installed
[22:30] <unitedpotsmokers> hello guys, where to find installers which i download from add/remove program or ultamatix because i want to save them, and next time i can run setup again
[22:30] <mrjulio> LjL: uhmm ... so is it a ubuntu issue?
[22:30] <andres_> for compiz fusion
[22:30] <LjL> mrjulio: no
[22:30] <andres_> i think i need to tweak the card a little
[22:30] <Mark_Jones> maybe disable them and see if there buggy?
[22:30] <LjL> mrjulio: the same would happen on any other 32-bit OS
[22:30] <andres_> k
[22:30] <andres_> just a moment
[22:30] <erUSUL> mrjulio: no; windows has exactly the same problem
[22:30] <gartral> BobTheBlueBerry: yes, but match the geforce series with your card, or else they wont take
[22:30] <erUSUL> mrjulio: windows 32 bit that's it
[22:31] <Mark_Jones> turn off desktop effects while you watcha video if needed.
[22:31] <mrjulio> so should i install a 64-bit ubuntu?
[22:31] <LjL> mrjulio: a 32-bit processor can only directly address (by definition) 4GB of RAM. since there is stuff that needs to be addressed aside from actual RAM, the actual available RAM for addressing will be less than 4gb
[22:31] <LjL> mrjulio: first ask yourself, do you *need* more than 3gb for *anything*?
[22:31] <andres_> how do you turn off desktop effects?
[22:31] <LjL> mrjulio: i can only think of a few quite special circumstances when one would use more than 3gb of RAM
[22:31] <SeViLLa> pronoy: how is it going on your end
[22:31] <Mark_Jones> system, preferences, appearance
[22:31] <andres_> k
[22:31] <Mark_Jones> visual effects
[22:31] <erUSUL> mrjulio: i would go to 64 bit. my opinion of course
[22:32] <crdlb> SeViLLa: hmm, edit your /etc/X11/xorg.conf and put Driver "radeon" in Section "Device"
[22:32] <Mark_Jones> none
[22:32] <rakudave> mrjulio: 4GB on a 32Bit System: http://samiux.wordpress.com/2008/01/10/how-to-use-4-gb-ram-on-a-32-bit-ubuntu/
[22:32] <pronoy> SeViLLa: searching forums..
[22:32] <SeViLLa> pronoy: k
[22:32] <dude_sweet> hey folks, I am having trouble with OpenVpn.  It can't find the libcrypto.so.0.   I gather I have to get it into my path, but how?
[22:32] <gartral> LjL IBM had made a ram bridg, at some point, i never knew how it worked, but it allowed a single 32 bit cpu to address 6 gb of ram, and two cpus to adress 8
[22:32] <waldir> sprinkmeier: what do you mean? I have an ntfs windows partition occupying 1/4 of the disk, then a 1/2 of the disk for a fat32 partition with data, then a 6GB ntfs with a clean windows install and a 15GB  in the end...
[22:32] <waldir> why wouldnt windows boot?
[22:33] <LjL> gartral: for that matter, you can address >4gb using the PAE kernel
[22:33] <bedo2991> I've got a ATI Radeon HD 4800 and a Samsung SyncMaster 932MW connected with a HDMI DVI cable. From now on, I can't enable the graphic effects (before when it was connected with a VGA cable it used to work).
[22:33] <LjL> gartral: i just said you can't *directly* address them
[22:33] <grandemahatma> how can I search for a channel whose name contains a certain pattern?
[22:33] <gartral> LjL didnt that sacrifice stability though?
[22:33] <chronic> i have an emulator program i compiled, now i have bunch of files and dont know how to start the program
[22:33] <waldir> sprinkmeier:  I just want the installer to take the 15GB I've set for it! :(
[22:33] <LjL> dude_sweet: did you install openvpn from the standard ubuntu package of it?
[22:33] <guntbert> waldir: wait that sound strange, can you pastebin the output of sudo fdisk -l ?
[22:33] <LjL> gartral: dunno
[22:33] <waldir> guntbert: ok
[22:33] <dude_sweet> I sure did
[22:33] <LjL> chronic: there's a README file somewhere, surely?
[22:34] <pronoy> unitedpotsmokers: well you can download the .deb packagaes
[22:34] <HammerHead66> bedo2991:try reinstalling the drivers http://paste.ubuntu.com/139399/
[22:34] <sprinkmeier> waldir, I've not seen the behaviour you describe (installer not wanting to use the free space etc.), it seems wrong. I was just wondering if the wrong-nes might be caused by some corruption of your partition table or somesuch evil. Booting the other OS should verify that things are (mostly) OK.
[22:34] <Acedip> using sticky notes, when i click anything on the dekstop, the sticky notes go back to panel, i want to stay on the desktop no matter wat i do
[22:34] <pronoy> BobTheBlueBerry: still having problems with the drivers ?
[22:34] <LjL> dude_sweet: what's the output of "apt-cache policy libssl0.9.8 | grep Instal"?
[22:35] <pronoy> BobTheBlueBerry: if I may suggest...try using envy ....
[22:35] <chronic> LjL: no readme, the main readme doesnt say how to execute it, just say "start it", genius , i know
[22:35] <BobTheBlueBerry> ok
[22:35] <LjL> chronic: which emulator would this be?
[22:35] <waldir> sprinkmeier: it was booting just before I installed ubuntu the first time earlier today, though I didn't try to boot it again
[22:35] <chronic> yabause
[22:35] <grandemahatma> how can I search for a channel whose name contains a certain pattern?
[22:35] <SeViLLa> crdlb: ok i did that then did . xconf
[22:35] <LjL> grandemahatma: /msg alis help
[22:35] <unitedpotsmokers> pronoy, : yup i download *deb package manually.. but if we use add/remove program i think maybe it will download *deb package or installer into our hard drive rite? so where can i find them? which folder?
[22:36] <grandemahatma> LjL: thanks.. now what exactly is "alis"?
[22:36] <Acedip> i know its a stupid problem but it is important..kindly help ..using sticky notes, when i click anything on the dekstop, the sticky notes go back to panel, i want to stay on the desktop no matter wat i do
[22:36] <waldir> guntbert: it's gonna be a little more complicated than what I described cause the first ubuntu install subdivided it even more... perhaps I'll paste a screenshot of gparted it might be easier to understand
[22:36] <LjL> chronic: are you on Hardy?
[22:36] <sprinkmeier> waldir, personally I'd be grabbing a cheap HDD (external or internal), backing up  the disk and then trying the installer, or maybe taking the box to a LUG for someone to look at.
[22:36] <dude_sweet> Installed: 0.9.8g-10.1ubuntu2.1
[22:36] <chronic> LjL: jaunty
[22:37] <evilnick> I've recently installed Ubuntu 8.10 and then Updated the system. Now whenever I try to check, I get errors about GPG. Where can I import the public key?
[22:37] <LjL> chronic: err... then why are you compiling it from source?
[22:37] <SeViLLa> pronoy: brb
[22:37] <pronoy> crdlb: hey if the drivers were installed to the latest versions does it mean it was the proprietary ones ?
[22:37] <guntbert> waldir: I'd prefer the output of sudo fdisk -l, if you don't mind
[22:37] <chronic> LjL: why not
[22:37] <LjL> chronic: ... because there is a package?
[22:37] <waldir> guntbert: sure! :) http://paste.ubuntu.com/139831/
[22:37] <LjL> !packages | chronic
[22:37] <SeViLLa> crdlb: brb
[22:37] <ikonia> jaunty is not supported in here any way
[22:37] <waldir> guntbert: I was going to give you both anyway :)
[22:38] <gartral> ok, progress, i CAN select a right spelling, but NOT with the mouse, i have to use the arrow keys and navigate the menus
[22:38] <guntbert> waldir: :-)
[22:38] <LjL> dude_sweet: uhm, ok what's the output of "apt-cache policy openvpn | grep Install"
[22:39] <gartral> how do i clean my ram?
[22:39] <crdlb> pronoy: even if he tried to install fglrx, it won't break the radeon driver's 2d (but it would break 3d)
[22:39] <chronic> LjL: i already compiled, just want to know how to run it without installing it
[22:39] <erUSUL> gartral: with a compressed air can ?
[22:39] <LjL> chronic: i won't help people installing stuff in awkward ways when there's a PACKAGE for it. also, jaunty support in #ubuntu+1
[22:40]  * erUSUL ;P
[22:40] <pronoy> crdlb: so right now is he installing them or not ?
[22:40] <Acedip> i know its a stupid problem but it is important..kindly help ..using sticky notes, when i click anything on the dekstop, the sticky notes go back to panel, i want to stay on the desktop no matter wat i do
[22:40] <unitedpotsmokers> cant wait to try jaunty
[22:40] <crdlb> pronoy: hopefully not
[22:40] <chronic> LjL: dude u know im banned from there
[22:40] <dude_sweet> Installed: 2.1~rc11-1ubuntu2
[22:40] <LjL> chronic: that's not my problem
[22:40] <unitedpotsmokers> but i heard too many problems with ext4
[22:41] <erUSUL> unitedpotsmokers: then use ext3; ext4 is only an option in jaunty
[22:41] <chronic> unick: trying 4, looks fine, what problems?
[22:41] <chronic> unit
[22:41] <gartral> erUSUL: lol, i meant the fact that  %55 is in cache usage and i want to clear it out
[22:41] <chronic> unitedpotsmokers: trying 4, looks fine, what problems?
[22:41] <unitedpotsmokers> LjL: dude u know im banned from there <-- me too, they ban me w/o reason lol
[22:42] <guntbert> waldir: your extended sda2 has about 6000 blocks, and those are taken by sda5-8, so there *is* no room left it seems - or do you still have "free" space?
[22:42] <LjL> dude_sweet: i had openvpn installed on intrepid and it worked fine... try "sudo apt-get --reinstall install openvpn libssl0.9.8" for good measure
[22:42] <LjL> unitedpotsmokers: that's an issue you should discuss in #ubuntu-ops not here
[22:42] <rww> unitedpotsmokers, chronic: Jaunty discussion belongs in #ubuntu+1. Ban discussion belongs in #ubuntu-ops. /Neither/ belong here.
[22:42] <erUSUL> gartral: if the kernel needs it it would reclaim if it does not need it it is better used for something. free ram == wasted ram
[22:42] <erUSUL> !ram | gartral
[22:42] <dude_sweet> k thank....I will give a status here soon
[22:42] <Acedip> well i cant let the sticky notes stay on my desktop, they go back to the pane wen i click something on the desktop ???
[22:42] <cypher1> Acedip, which version of stickynotes are you using ?
[22:42] <SeViLLa> pronoy: k im back
[22:42] <waldir> guntbert: I dont seem to be able to launch gparted, but I'll try to describe what's there
[22:42] <unitedpotsmokers> okay... man im sorry
[22:42] <unitedpotsmokers> :)
[22:43] <pronoy> approach crdlb he'll tell you what to do
[22:43] <Acedip> cypher1, 2.24.1
[22:43] <pronoy> i am kinda stuck here
[22:43] <waldir> guntbert: sda3, 4, 5 and 6 are all inside sda2, which takes overall 50GB
[22:43] <BobTheBlueBerry> where is the init.d conf file?
[22:43] <puff> Evening.
[22:44] <erUSUL> BobTheBlueBerry: there is no inittab file in ubuntu. it uses upstart
[22:44] <erUSUL> !inittab
[22:44] <Markyb86> anyone here use easy peasy
[22:44] <cypher1> Acedip, is your problem is that the new notes that are created goes to the panel !?
[22:44] <TheFuzzball> Hello, is there any way for me to remotely log in to my Ubuntu box without an SSH/Telnet server running?
[22:44] <crdlb> SeViLLa: what does 'glxinfo | grep -i renderer' say?
[22:44] <evilnick> I'm getting the following error on Update Manager: "W: GPG error: http://ppa.launchpad.net intrepid Release: The following signatures couldn't be verified because the public key is not available: NO_PUBKEY 6D975C4791E7EE5E"
[22:44] <LjL> !gpgerr | evilnick
[22:44] <waldir> guntbert:  then there's sda7 with about 7GB and finally around 15GB of free space
[22:44] <SeViLLa> crdlb: k hold on
[22:44] <gartral> TheFuzzball: XDMP?
[22:44] <Acedip> cypher1, yes, they go back when i click on the desktop
[22:44] <evilnick> LjL: Thanks
[22:44] <waldir> I suspect the sda8 is the swap for the live cd or something 9.9
[22:45] <looter> Is there anyway to change the way Evolution handles its read/unread messages?  I want to make them more dechiperable, for example having read messages in one color and unread in another???
[22:45] <TheFuzzball> gartral: is it default in Ubuntu?
[22:45] <verb3k> Where to find old flash plugins?
[22:46] <waldir> guntbert: or perhaps I am mixing things up, since that list is not in order
[22:46] <pronoy> verb3k: why in god's name would you want them ?
[22:46] <mib_ak4tq1> anyone have the patience to help a noob trying to install 8.10?
[22:46] <h00k> !ask | mib_ak4tq1
[22:46] <verb3k> pronoy, because the new one is very slow and sluggish on my machine
[22:46] <guntbert> waldir: there is definitely something VERY strange with your partition table
[22:46] <dude_sweet> strange.....after the reinstall the same issue....full error: "openvpn: error while loading shared libraries: libcrypto.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
[22:46] <pronoy> mib_ak4tq1 go to psychocats.net
[22:46] <waldir> guntbert: I think i got it
[22:46] <mib_ak4tq1> I am trying to install 8.10 desktop version, it went through all the steps but when it restarted i just got a peach screen and thats it, i used the CD
[22:46] <gartral> TheFuzzball: i think so, but ive never set it up
[22:47] <guntbert> waldir: you got what?
[22:47] <TheFuzzball> gartral: do you need an X Server, 'cause I am on a Windows host sadly.
[22:47] <waldir> guntbert: sda 5, 6, 7 and 8 are inside sda2 and are respectively fat32, ext3 (the ubuntu i installed earlier today) and 2 swap partitions
[22:47] <EduGMAchado> Hellow folks!
[22:47] <pronoy> mib_ak4tq1: means you didn't install it you just got through the live cd...try it again...
[22:47] <verb3k> pronoy,  Why do you ask if you can't help?
[22:47] <GwJumpman> Howdy
[22:47] <mib_ak4tq1> pronoy: how do i start it again? boot from cd?
[22:48] <LjL> dude_sweet: try "sudo ldconfig"
[22:48] <h00k> mib_ak4tq1, did you go through the installer?
[22:48] <guntbert> waldir: so I said :-)
[22:48] <pronoy> verb3k: but i think the older version had the sound issue...
[22:48] <GwJumpman> I'm just logging in case of any problems, I'm downloading the ubuntu iso and going to load it in vmware
[22:48] <mib_ak4tq1> hook: yes it said restart and than the peach screen
[22:48] <BobTheBlueBerry> shouldn't X.Org be able to detect my graphics card even if it isn't the primary graphics adapter?
[22:48] <pronoy> mib_ak4tq1: no ...install ubuntu
[22:48] <waldir> guntbert: you said that? i didnt get it :(
[22:48] <crdlb> LjL: is it just me or is there no such file as libcrypto.so.0? (at least on hardy and jaunty)
[22:48] <verb3k> pronoy, I am looking for any old version not only the one before the latest
[22:48] <waldir> guntbert: isnt this channel too crowded?
[22:49] <puff> So... how reliable is ubuntu-boot-from-flashdrive these days?
[22:49] <mib_ak4tq1> pronoy: how do i install it, i dont have an operating system on this computer at all
[22:49] <LjL> crdlb: it's not just you (and i don't have an intrepid to test it on, either, just hardy)
[22:49] <gartral> TheFuzzball: ahh, that your scewered on, unless you like ming
[22:49] <waldir> guntbert: let me see if I remember how to PM
[22:49] <puff> And is there a special ubuntu channel for flashdrive boots?
[22:49] <pronoy> mib_ak4tq1: insert the cd and it will guide you ..there will be an option saying install ubuntu
[22:49] <LjL> puff: don't think so, no
[22:50] <mib_ak4tq1> pronoy: okay so i should do this a second time? with the cd?
[22:50] <diablo> no sound on ubuntu 8.10 i get a error says No volume control GStreamer plugins and/or devices found.
[22:50] <diablo> can anyone help
[22:50] <dupondje> I installed pident, started it, but it doesn't return a ident ? :s any id what I could do wrong ? :)
[22:50] <pronoy> mib_ak4tq1: yes reboot and then click on install ubuntu...don't try ubuntu without any changes to your system
[22:51] <pronoy> verb3k: well the repositories for one won't have that....you can try it on adobe's site
[22:51] <SeViLLa> crdlb: this is the standard output of that command http://paste.ubuntu.com/139838/
[22:51] <Acedip> cypher1,
[22:51] <verb3k> pronoy, I see, thanks for your time
[22:51] <diablo> no sound on ubuntu 8.10 i get a error says No volume control GStreamer plugins and/or devices found.
[22:51] <diablo>  can anyone help
[22:51] <LjL> crdlb: if it were my system, eh... i'd just make a symlink to libcrypto.so.0 :) but i'm not entirely sure that's good advice to give someone else
[22:52] <ndshacker> hello, I can browse quite quickly, but my download speeds are at 5 kb/s any idea why?
[22:52] <mib_ak4tq1> pronoy: thank you i will try
[22:52] <cypher1> Acedip, i am seeing this in the help menu "To hide all your notes, either click on the desktop, or right-click the Sticky Notes applet and choose Hide Notes."
[22:52] <ndshacker> it is going to take me 7 hours to download the kubuntu live cd
[22:52] <BobTheBlueBerry> ndshacker: your browser probably caches stuff
[22:52] <Ryan_Leaf> ndshacker: What is your connnection?
[22:52] <ndshacker> bob: even on new sites its faster than 5 kb/s
[22:52] <ndshacker> a 1.5 mb line
[22:52] <puff> If I install ubuntu on a flash drive from one machine can I boot it on another machine?  I.e. are there hardware configuraiton dependencies?
[22:52] <BobTheBlueBerry> oh
[22:52] <cypher1> Acedip, which seems to happen in your case... but for me it stays but does not go to panel.. i do not know which behaviour is correct for it.. lol
[22:53] <SeViLLa> crdlb: you get it
[22:53] <cypher1> Acedip, check out this: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-applets/+bug/61919
[22:53] <Ryan_Leaf> ndshacker: Try rebooting your network equipment. Otherwise, I would recommend either kernel.org or mit.edu for mirrors.
[22:53] <LjL> puff: there might be, for X video drivers at least, although with Intrepid i think that's not the case anymore, but i'm not sure
[22:53] <pronoy> ndshacker: trust me when i say linux browsing is faster than anyother OS...can't say anything for download speed
[22:53] <ndshacker> pronoy: im currently hovering on 5 kb/s a little extremely slow if you ask me
[22:53] <crdlb> SeViLLa: pastebin your /var/log/Xorg.0.log and /var/log/Xorg.0.log.old
[22:54] <Acedip> cypher1, does knote provide with the same feature as sticky notes, i can install that if it does
[22:54] <pronoy> ndshacker: i get it...you should try the mirror..or maybe the torrent .
[22:54] <evilnick> LjL: I've imported the standard keys and the XBMC one too. How do I then install XBMC? Which application do I use?
[22:54] <ndshacker> pronoy: its all downlads
[22:54] <ndshacker> *downloads
[22:54] <LjL> evilnick: i don't know what xbmc even is
[22:54] <cypher1> Acedip, i am not sure.. you can checkout tomboy (but its more of a personal wiki) and it has always on top feature too
[22:54] <unitedpotsmokers> hello guys, my friend here said don't use "make install" but use "checkinstall". but he cannot give a reason why. so what is the different between them? which one is safe?
[22:54] <Ryan_Leaf> evilnick: Isn't that a media center application?
[22:55] <graingert> LjL-> xbox media centre
[22:55] <pronoy> ndshacker: the torrent might speed up depending upon the number of seeders
[22:55] <cypher1> !tomboy
[22:55] <crdlb> !checkinstall | unitedpotsmokers
[22:55] <ndshacker> pronoy: All downloads, even torrents
[22:55] <Acedip> cypher1, couldn't find that allways on top feature there either :(
[22:55] <Ryan_Leaf> ndshacker: Wait... Are you using BT for a protocol?
[22:55] <erUSUL> unitedpotsmokers: the later lets you unistall the program via a package manager
[22:55] <LjL> evilnick: so this xbmc thing is in the repository that you added?
[22:55] <cypher1> Acedip, its available with tomboy
[22:55] <ndshacker> its like it caps it off at 20 kb/s max
[22:55] <erUSUL> unitedpotsmokers: if you just install it would be hard to remove from the system
[22:55] <Roasted> Does anybody here use a network cloning solution besides clonezilla to clone a large number of Ubuntu machines?
[22:55] <erUSUL> !checkinstall | unitedpotsmokers
[22:55] <crdlb> unitedpotsmokers: I'm not a fan of it, the best thing to do is to install stuff into your home directory or somewhere in /opt/, but it's more work
[22:56] <unitedpotsmokers> erUSUL, : ahh ic.. then if i use check install it is easy to me to uninstall them
[22:56]  * usser one should always keep the sources after compiling, thats why there's /usr/src people
[22:56] <evilnick> LjL: I believe so. I have added the PPA (?) and now am stuck for how to download/install it
[22:56] <eseven73> a good notetaking  suite is basket (some kde libs required though, if you're a gnome Purest, do not install it)
[22:56] <dude_sweet> um....no go. same issue.   I did a ldconfig -v to look at it further and I did not see it in the /lib or /usr/lib
[22:56] <unitedpotsmokers> ok understand now.. thanks guys u help me a lot..
[22:56] <pronoy> Ryan_Leaf: you mean client right ?
[22:56] <LjL> evilnick: like any other repositori. "sudo apt-get install <packagename>" or using Synaptic.
[22:56] <LjL> !software > evilnick    (evilnick, see the private message from ubottu)
[22:56] <ndshacker> now my download is going through a 111 spurt
[22:57] <cypher1> Acedip, checkout tomboy: http://packages.ubuntu.com/intrepid/tomboy
[22:57] <crdlb> dude_sweet: what does 'command -v openvpn' say?
[22:57] <LjL> evilnick: my bet is "sudo apt-get install xbmc"
[22:57] <ndshacker> but if i open firefox, itll go back to like 10
[22:57] <PatrickGleason> Why cant I get my resolution past 800x600? im using the recommenced nvidia driver...and it was working fine earlier on an lcd-now i switched to a giant crt and it wont go past 8*6
[22:57] <trinidadflores> I need some advice  I am currently dual booted and i want to reclaim my partition that winblows is in what is the best way to do so
[22:57] <Acedip> cypher1, got it ty, but that is not wat i want, sticky notes is better for my purpose
[22:57] <evilnick> LjL: Ah, with Terminal then
[22:57] <evilnick> Thanks
[22:57] <ndshacker> trinidad: just delete the partition
[22:57] <PatrickGleason> kill that- it wont go past 640*480
[22:57] <cypher1> Acedip, ok!
[22:58] <Ryan_Leaf> pronoy: I thought BT was a protocol. "BitTorrent" is also an application. But you can use BT protocol with "Transmission", "Azureus", or "uTorrent"
[22:58] <LjL> evilnick: no, terminal is just an option. you can do the same thing from Synaptic. please read the link i gave you, you *need* to know how software is generally installed and removed correctly in Ubuntu
[22:58] <ndshacker> and open /boot/grub/menu.lst and erase the part about windows
[22:58] <LjL> !fixres > PatrickGleason    (PatrickGleason, see the private message from ubottu)
[22:58] <dude_sweet> /usr/local/sbin/openvpn
[22:58] <trinidadflores> will it mess up my ubuntu boot or should i do all this in ubuntu
[22:58] <pronoy> PatrickGleason: happened to me too....used fix X or maybe edited the xorg.conf
[22:58] <Roasted> Does anybody here use a network cloning solution besides clonezilla to clone a large number of Ubuntu machines?
[22:58] <LjL> crdlb++
[22:58] <LjL> also, /me facepalms
[22:58] <ndshacker> would my dad downloading stuff slow me down?
[22:58] <ndshacker> by this much?
[22:58] <Acedip> cypher1, seems like, sticky notes behave differently at different places, then how can they talk about that bug being fixed
[22:59] <pronoy> Ryan_Leaf: oh yeah..get it now
[22:59] <ndshacker> ill jsust block his torrents when i wanna download >.<
[22:59] <PatrickGleason> pronoy: I will try that-thanks muchly
[22:59] <Ryan_Leaf> ndshacker: try rebooting your network equipment, and try the mirrors "kernel.org" or "mit.edu"
[22:59] <pronoy> PatrickGleason: you can decide what kinda monitor you are using that will automatically fix ur xorg.conf
[22:59] <LjL> dude_sweet: why did you install an unifficial openvpn package in /usr/local, pray tell?
[22:59] <waldir> I'm trying to use the manual partitioning in the installer. How to I mark a partition as the one I want ubuntu installed on?
[23:00] <Megarain> What's the channel for 9.04?
[23:00] <pronoy> waldir: ext3 type format ...boot at /
[23:00] <LjL> !jaunty > Megarain    (Megarain, see the private message from ubottu)
[23:00] <PatrickGleason> Megarian : i think its #ubuntu~1 or ubuntu1
[23:00] <bartek> Hi there, when I run `top` on one of my ubuntu machines I get 'xterm-256color' unknown terminal type. What do I have to do ?
[23:00] <dude_sweet> uh...ignorance more than likely....not on purpose
[23:00] <LjL> neither.
[23:00] <genii> Megarain: #ubuntu+1
[23:00] <Megarain> Thanks LJ, Been a while since I've used a beta.
[23:00] <Ryan_Leaf> pronoy: You could also boot at /boot
[23:01] <erUSUL> waldir: mount point → /
[23:01] <PatrickGleason> genii: thnx
[23:01] <LjL> dude_sweet: ok, please keep well in mind that software should NEVER be installed from outside the official repositories unless you know what you're doing VERY well.
[23:01] <Ryan_Leaf> but if he's dual booting Windows and Linux, then it might make sense for him to use one partiton for data and one for SWAP
[23:01] <pronoy> waldir: make sure you leave some space specifically as swap memory....a different partition usually the space equalent to the space of you RAM
[23:01] <LjL> dude_sweet: what's happening now is that you have both the official openvpn package installed, *and* some unofficial one
[23:01] <BobTheBlueBerry> X.Org won't work unless I physically remove my graphics card from my machine.
[23:01] <waldir> thanks pronoym erUSUL
[23:01] <LjL> dude_sweet: the latter overrides the former, and is apparently incompatible with your libraries
[23:01] <nightrid3r> PatrickGleason:  if all else fails look at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/800x600%20video%20mode monitor section and modes section
[23:01] <LjL> dude_sweet: so now pastebin the output of "find /usr/local | grep vpn"
[23:01] <Ryan_Leaf> pronoy: How much would you recommend? I usually set it to 8GB, even though I only have 1GB of physical memory
[23:01] <gearsecond> lost the start bar
[23:01] <bonyui> hi
[23:02] <bonyui> cant get connected to wireless internet on ubuntu
[23:02] <gearsecond> what should i do to
[23:02] <pronoy> Ryan_Leaf: i guess you could set it to like 2 gigs wouldn't make much of difference
[23:02] <bonyui> can somebody help me or give me a link :X
[23:02] <gearsecond> have it back
[23:02] <waldir> pronoy: there are two swap partitions already there, from a previous install... can I use that?
[23:02] <pronoy> Ryan_Leaf: should be greater than or equal to the physical memory
[23:02] <pronoy> waldir: yeah...you can....
[23:02] <SeViLLa> crdlb: ok here it is http://paste.ubuntu.com/139844/
[23:02] <waldir> pronoy:  in fact I don't know where the second came from
[23:02] <SeViLLa> crdlb: ok here it is http://paste.ubuntu.com/139844/
[23:02] <gearsecond> can anybdy help me
[23:03] <dude_sweet> /usr/local/sbin/openvpn    -        /usr/local/share/man/man8/openvpn.8.gz
[23:03] <pronoy> waldir: infact you just need one...delete the other one...use it with the ext3
[23:03] <bonyui> can anybody help me or give me a link?
[23:03] <bonyui> Because i have searched EVERYWHERE
[23:03] <bonyui> :(
[23:03] <dude_sweet> so should I investigate removing them and starting from scratch?
