[01:49] <epignosis> does anyone have a recommendation for a podcast client, I used Doppler in windows. I need a client that will let me edit the artist, album, etc tag
[01:50] <ikonia_> innu no idea what vino server is
[01:50] <innu> same here
[01:50] <innu> https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/vino/+bug/31037
[01:50] <ikonia_> innu according to the top output your not running vinno-server
[01:50] <soundray> ikonia_: no, the / is from the code that compiles.
[01:50] <OrTigaS> how to see my thumb drive?
[01:50] <ikonia_> soundray apologies - my mistake
[01:50] <jrib> OrTigaS: you should be able to just plug it in
[01:50] <agliv5> ikonia_ well I decided that I missed 6.06 so I formated everything and installed 6.06 but now Grub is trying to mount the wrong partition... how stupid!
[01:50] <ikonia_> I'll take another look
[01:51] <ikonia_> agliv5 get the config into a pastebin and lets take a look
[01:51] <OrTigaS> it doest detect thats y i ask :P
[01:51] <hilkuri> vino server is vnc-server for remote desktop
[01:51] <innu> k, thats not my mistake still... im out of thoughts.
[01:51] <jrib> OrTigaS: does it show up in dmesg when you plug it in?
[01:51] <ikonia_> hilkuri thank you
[01:51] <agliv5> ikonia_:  I already sent you the link.... http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/8214/
[01:51] <OrTigaS> let me look
[01:51] <ikonia_> agliv5 sorry I missed the link
[01:51] <ikonia_> hang on
[01:52] <hilkuri> you can turn it off from menu system -> settings
[01:52] <ikonia_> hilkuri he's not got it installed

[01:52] <ikonia_> oops
[01:52] <agliv5> ikonia_: no need to appoligize.... I'm overgreatfull that I'm finally getting some good quality assistance ;)
[01:52] <ikonia_> ubotu
[01:52] <ikonia_> soweto76 no problem
[01:53] <ikonia_> agliv5 okey dokey - are you running 6.0.6 amd64 ?
[01:53] <ikonia_> 6.06 before the natzi's pick up on my typo
[01:54] <agliv5> ikonia_: I'm trying to ;)
[01:54] <cisforcojo> hey guys anyone awake?
[01:54] <ikonia_> agliv5 ok  - just wwanted to make sure I was looking at the right part
[01:54] <soundray> cisforcojo: no
[01:55] <ikonia_> agliv5 can you tell me which hard disk and partition your install is on ?
[01:55] <epignosis> does anyone have a recommendation for a podcast client, I used Doppler in windows. I need a client that will let me edit the artist, album, etc tag
[01:55] <ikonia_> agliv5 is the /dev/sda8 correct ?
[01:55] <cisforcojo> nice, does ubuntu reserve space on removable media?
[01:55] <cisforcojo> i deleted a bunch of files from my ipod but no space was freed
[01:56] <cisforcojo> now I deleted everythign and there's only 1.3 GB listed as available on the drive (there should be 4GB0
[01:56] <soundray> cisforcojo: empty the trash
[01:56] <cisforcojo> soundray: done it already
[01:56] <cisforcojo> there's NOTHING on the ipod
[01:56] <ikonia_> cisforcojo isn't that something to do with how the TOC works
[01:56] <ikonia_> cisforcojo you can't just delete fiels you need an application to manage teh files
[01:56] <cisforcojo> TOC?
[01:57] <soundray> cisforcojo: is it mounted as a USB mass storage device?
[01:57] <cisforcojo> ikonia: tried gtkPOD first, then said fuck it and did it manually
[01:57] <agliv5> ikonia_: sda8 = / "root" yes
[01:57] <ikonia_> I'm not up to speed on ipods - I just remember something about accesing the hard drive directly = breaks the disk TOC
[01:57] <ikonia_> cisforcojo no need for language
[01:57] <[Nige] > hi all
[01:57] <ikonia_> agliv5 ok - thats great
[01:57] <[Nige] > anyone know of a good css editor?
[01:57] <cisforcojo> soundray: i'm not sure, it's automounted and there's nothing in my fstab. i added something but that didhingn't seem to change anyt
[01:57] <jrib> cisforcojo: .Trash-*  is usually hidden on the device, not sure if you checked for hidden files
[01:57] <cisforcojo> ikonia: my mistake
[01:57] <[Nige] > the one that comes with nvu sucks
[01:58] <cisforcojo> jrib: yeah I check for it. ls -al shows nothing
[01:58] <UbuntuN00B_HBG> Hi all! I cant get folder sharing in my network to work! I have shared them as SMB-folders but i cant locate them on the "other" computer in my network!
[01:58] <ikonia_> agliv5 try changing the (hd1,0) line to (hd0,7)
[01:58] <agliv5> ikonia_:  I don't know yet what's so great about that.... FYI hda1 is only NTFS Data and has a faulty boot-sector.... but since it's only DATA, wo cares?
[01:58] <ikonia_> agliv5 I can only take an educated guess at the correct option as I don't know your system
[01:58] <ikonia_> agliv5 ahhh you have a hda1
[01:58] <soundray> cisforcojo: check on the command line with 'du /media/ipod' (assuming that it is mounted on /media/ipod)
[01:59] <ikonia_> agliv5 my mistake
[01:59] <ikonia_> agliv5 change (hd1,0) to (hd1,7)
[01:59] <ikonia_> agliv5 all instances
[01:59] <ikonia_> agliv5 I'm %90 certain that will work
[02:00] <agliv5> ikonia_:  hda1 is NTFS data no boot, sda1 is /boot, sda5 is /swap, sda7 is /home, sda8 is / "root" -- that's it...
[02:00] <ikonia_> soundray I'm not sure, but I don't think it will matter, apple uses some strange way to allocate the tOC on ipods - thats why you have to use itunes style apps to access it
[02:01] <ikonia_> agliv5 poooh you have /boot
[02:01] <OrTigaS> [17194062.700000]  usb 7-6: new high speed USB device using ehci_hcd and address 2
[02:01] <ikonia_> on a seperate partition
[02:01] <OrTigaS> [17194062.812000]  usb 7-6: device descriptor read/64, error -71
[02:01] <agliv5> ikonia_: yes
[02:01] <OrTigaS> is that my thumb drive?
[02:01] <soundray> OrTigaS: no pasting
[02:01] <ikonia_> agliv5 ok - so root should be either (hd1,0) or (hd1,7) - I can't be certain - but its one of those too
[02:01] <ikonia_> two
[02:01] <epignosis> does anyone have a recommendation for a podcast client, I used Doppler in windows. I need a client that will let me edit the artist, album, etc tag
[02:01] <soundray> OrTigaS: there is no way to tell
[02:02] <OrTigaS> what should be?
[02:02] <ikonia_> OrTigaS what are you talking about
[02:02] <soundray> OrTigaS: clearly you have a USB device that doesn't work.
[02:02] <agliv5> ikonia_: why hda? my root is sda8? is it supposed to mount sda8 to hda?
[02:02] <OrTigaS> if plug my thumb drive?
[02:02] <ikonia_> agliv5 didn't say hda  - I said hd
[02:02] <cisforcojo> du doesn't show much
[02:02] <cisforcojo> there's just nothing on the drive
[02:03] <agliv5> ikonia_: I see, what's the difference?
[02:03] <soundray> epignosis: I don't know about podcast clients, but there is an abundance of ID3 tag editors. exfalso is one I like
[02:03] <RandomizeR> hey, i have a question: i need to copy my old linux installation over a new one on a separate HD.. what files do i need to KEEP from the new installation so it'd still boot correctly? so far i know i'll need to maintain the data in /boot/grub/menu.lst and /etc/fstab (i'm actually planning to merge the configuration from the old and new installations), what else do i need to keep? plz help!
[02:03] <ikonia_> agliv5 (hd1,0) or (hd1,7)
[02:03] <ikonia_> agliv5 grub doesn't reference hard disks the same
[02:03] <OrTigaS> how t make my thumd drive work?
[02:03] <ikonia_> agliv5 all disks are "hd"
[02:03] <agliv5> ikonia_: I meant between hda and hd?
[02:04] <poningru> RandomizeR: yeah thats it as long as you keep the same kernel name and initrd image
[02:04] <ikonia_> RandomizeR you need to change the grub menu, re-install the boot sector, edit the fstab
[02:04] <ikonia_> agliv5 there is no difference, hda is how linux shows the first ide disk - hd is how grub references any hard disk
[02:04] <soundray> OrTigaS: error -71 is a sign of flaky USB hardware. Sometimes it helps to unplug and replug the device, or use a different socket.
[02:04] <RandomizeR> so other than fstab and menu.lst, i can overwrite everything else with the old installation?
[02:04] <ikonia_> agliv5 they are two different methods of accessing the hard disk - onefor the OS one for the grub boot loader
[02:04] <OrTigaS> okay thanks
[02:04] <ixiion> feisty herd 5 is delayed ,any info why ?
[02:04] <Ragnak> hi all. anyone know when is the release date for Feisty Herd 5?
[02:05] <cisforcojo> should i have to modify ubuntu to setup mounting an ipod? It seems as though this is pretty standard.
[02:05] <cisforcojo> it even mounted it to /media/ipod
[02:05] <GaiaX11> Ragnak: !feisty
[02:05] <jrib> Ragnak: #ubuntu+1 for feisty
[02:05] <Ragnak> !feisty
[02:05] <ubotu> The next version of Ubuntu (7.04; codenamed "Feisty Fawn"), it should be released in April 2007. At the moment it is alpha. Schedule: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/FeistyReleaseSchedule - Specifications (goals): https://features.launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/feisty - Help in #ubuntu+1
[02:05] <ikonia_> !goodbotuse >Ragnak
[02:05] <agliv5> ikonia_: I don't think what you are suggesting is going to work... hang on a sec whist I check something...
[02:05] <ikonia_> agliv5 explain why you don't think its going to work

[02:06] <OrTigaS> i just installed wine but it not shows in application
[02:06] <arkaitz_> Hey
[02:06] <OrTigaS> or system
[02:06] <soundray> OrTigaS: it's not supposed to. Read the docs
[02:06] <ikonia_> fyi : /join #ubuntu+1 for fesity and #ubuntu-effects for berylo
[02:06] <arkaitz_> how can I unistall totally a installed package and all its dependences?
[02:06] <soundray> !wine > OrTigaS
[02:06] <ikonia_> arkaitz_ use synaptic
[02:06] <OrTigaS> i want to make it show there
[02:07] <soundray> OrTigaS: read the docs please
[02:07] <UbuntuN00B_HBG> can anyone here please help me getting my shared network folders acutally *shared*?
[02:07] <arkaitz_> ikonia_ I used synaptic, the thing is that it doesnt unistall the package completely because when I install it again it doesnt have the default options but the ones I changed
[02:07] <cisforcojo> sudo apt-get autoremove will get rid of any packages that are unusesd
[02:07] <cisforcojo> unused
[02:07] <soundray> UbuntuN00B_HBG: give a problem description. Be precise.
[02:08] <cisforcojo> anyone know why my ipod would show less then half it's size?
[02:08] <freshmint> is mame available for ubuntu?
[02:08] <ikonia_> arkaitz_ probablysave the config files - select the force remove option
[02:08] <OrTigaS> already open and read part of it before i ask
[02:08] <OrTigaS> let me look
[02:08] <agliv5> ikonia_: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/8193  that's why...
[02:09] <guspad> freshmint, xmame
[02:09] <ikonia_> agliv5 did you try (hd1,7)
[02:09] <guspad> freshmint, yes it's
[02:09] <arkaitz_> ikonia_: where is that option?
[02:09] <ikonia_> agliv5 I said it could be either but I can't be sure as I do'nt know your system
[02:09] <UbuntuN00B_HBG> soundray: i have two computer in my home network that can ping each other, no firewall, i have shared folders on the "server" computer with Sys->Admin->SharedFolders, as SMB-folders. But the client computer cant find them!
[02:09] <ikonia_> arkaitz_ hang on
[02:09] <ikonia_> arkaitz_ look at whatyou've typed
[02:09] <freshmint> guspad, is it available in apt-get repos?
[02:09] <ikonia_> agliv5 root (hda1,0)
[02:09] <ikonia_> I said (hd1,0)
[02:10] <ikonia_> I just explained its not hda for grub - its hd
[02:10] <guspad> freshmint, do: aptitude search mame
[02:10] <shaki> hello people, somebody know the commands for bitchx for to set ident/nickname/ another server/realname/ alternate nick ? somebody knows ???
[02:10] <soundray> UbuntuN00B_HBG: what happens when you do "Places - Connect to server" and enter all the appropriate info?
[02:10] <ikonia_> shaki thats not client specific
[02:10] <guspad> freshmint, in a terminal
[02:10] <ikonia_> shaki /msg nickserv help
[02:10] <freshmint> guspad, sure
[02:11] <guspad> freshmint, u never know....
[02:11] <guspad> :P
[02:11] <agliv5> ikonia_:  I have not tried anything yet and am recluctant to because I'm currently running from the liveCD and what to get it RIGHT for the next boot ;)
[02:11] <ikonia_> agliv5 look at the root(hda1,0) line - it should be root(hd1,0) or root (hd1,7)
[02:11] <ikonia_> its either one of those
[02:12] <ikonia_> agliv5 I think its (hd1,7) - but I can't be certain
[02:12] <techie1> good morning. HOw can I read xp files from my ubuntu given now I have double boot /xp/ubuntu?
[02:12] <ikonia_> techie1 we went through this yesterday
[02:12] <freshmint> guspad, well ehmm ... i actually got no response / results?
[02:12] <cisforcojo> ?
[02:12] <ikonia_> techie1 mouont your ntfs partition
[02:12] <agliv5> ikonia_:  (hd1,7) sounds logical wish me luck ;)
[02:12] <guspad> freshmint, maybe you need to add some repos
[02:12] <ikonia_> agliv5  back in 1minute
[02:13] <soundray> agliv5: I agree with ikonia_ -- it's very likely to be (hd1,7) if you have a /dev/hda and a /dev/sda and root is on /dev/sda8
I have fat32 and not ntfs
[02:13] <techie1> does that matter
[02:13] <amorphous_> I' trying to set up some systems in various places and have files on them updated by a high ranking user on iether one of those machines, or his home one. In order to do this I'm guessing i need to set variables for the ip addresses of the various machines. Anyone know where is the place to put the command that runs the script to set the IP addresses into variables? is it .bashrc or bashpro
[02:13] <freshmint> guspad, i enabled the universe repo in /etc/apt/...
[02:13] <amorphous_> I' trying to set up some systems in various places and have files on them updated by a high ranking user on iether one of those machines, or his home one.

Anyone know where is the place to put the command that runs the script to set the IP addresses into variables? is it .bashrc or bashprofile?
[02:13] <amorphous_> sorry - didn't mean that
[02:14] <eilker>  i have 32 packages to ugrade, how can i do this from console ? sudo apt-get upgrade ??
[02:14] <UbuntuN00B_HBG> soundray: when configuring... is "Server" the hostname of the "server computer" or the domain name?
[02:14] <amorphous_> eilker - you got it!
[02:14] <guspad> freshmint, Section: multiverse/games
[02:14] <guspad> freshmint, u need multiverse also
[02:14] <amorphous_> eilker, but sudo apt-get update first (i think)
[02:15] <soundray> amorphous_: it would be atypical to put IP addresses in variables. Use DNS or /etc/hosts
[02:15] <soundray> UbuntuN00B_HBG: hostname
[02:15] <agliv5> soundray: thanks and If I don't come back then I guess it worked ;)
[02:15] <eilker> amorphous_: i did both, but it doent upgare,
[02:15] <soundray> agliv5: do come back and give us feedback.
[02:15] <eilker> it says  "The following packages have been kept back:" why _?
[02:15] <UbuntuN00B_HBG> soundray: and hostname is what i see leftmost in a terminal as well?
[02:15] <UbuntuN00B_HBG> soundray: left of the @
[02:16] <agliv5> soundray: ok :) Adios Amigos :)
[02:16] <soundray> UbuntuN00B_HBG: no, that would be the username. Just run hostname on the server.
[02:16] <freshmint> guspad, i cant find it in the source list. will i have to make a new entry?
[02:16] <soundray> UbuntuN00B_HBG: ie. 'hostname' on a line by itself
[02:17] <demosh> heyhey
[02:17] <amorphous_> soundray, ok - the ip addresses are DHCP - the providor wants to charge for static. It means he has to be able to change a given address if the address changes, and it has to be simple - so i thought just a text doc to set the variables... would that be problematic?
[02:17] <guspad> freshmint, yes, or try to add the word multiverse to some of the existing lines
[02:17] <demosh> any pointers, good documentation, etc relating to pocketpc syncing
[02:17] <amorphous_> eilker, does it not say why?
[02:18] <soundray> eilker: 'sudo apt-get dist-upgrade'. If that fails, pastebin the output from 'sudo apt-get -f install'
[02:18] <techie1> Ikonia. do you have any links which explain how to mount nfts or fat32?
[02:18] <guspad> freshmint, remeber to do apt-get update
[02:18] <ikonia_> !ntfs >techie1
[02:18] <teeL> Is it possible to use a digital camera as a webcam?
[02:18] <ikonia_> techie1 or you can just use the "places" tab
[02:18] <ikonia_> teeL I don't believe so unless its a video camera
[02:19] <UbuntuN00B_HBG> soundray: ok... well... "Connect to server" and entering only my hostname, than trying to open it gives me "Couldnt show all contents of..."
[02:19] <soundray> amorphous_: no, just unusual. You can set those variables in $HOME/.bashrc or system-wide in /etc/environment... but for a clean solution, have a look at www.dyndns.org
thank you. That makes more sense about going to places... thanks.
[02:19] <freshmint> guspad, before or afterward. must be after i added the source ...
[02:19] <teeL> ikonia_ : It can record video too =p
[02:19] <amorphous_> thanks soundray :)
[02:19] <ikonia_> teeL but can it stream video - most cameas can't
[02:19] <ikonia_> techie1 no problem
[02:19] <guspad> freshmint, yes after
[02:20] <soundray> UbuntuN00B_HBG: then you haven't got sufficient permissions on the shared directory on the server side.
[02:20] <UbuntuN00B_HBG> soundray: chmod 777 -r [shared dir] ?
[02:20] <ikonia_> UbuntuN00B_HBG it server side
[02:20] <freshmint> guspad, is http://si.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu breezy multiverse what im looking for?
[02:20] <ikonia_> UbuntuN00B_HBG not client side
[02:21] <guspad> uhh breezy
[02:21] <UbuntuN00B_HBG> ikonia_: you mean i need to chmod the folder on the server side?
[02:21] <soundray> UbuntuN00B_HBG: 777 is not at all safe. Use chown and 770 or 700 preferably.
[02:21] <ikonia_> UbuntuN00B_HBG well certainly not 7777
[02:22] <eilker> soundray : The following packages have been (packages names) .0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 32 not upgraded.
[02:22] <ikonia_> UbuntuN00B_HBG you need to make sure you client use is in the correct group on the server
[02:22] <guspad>  freshmint yes, something like this... deb  http://si.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu breezy main restricted universe multiverse
[02:22] <soundray> !pastebin | eilker, please put your apt-get -f install output there

[02:23] <UbuntuN00B_HBG> ikonia_: where do i check the group of the client?
[02:23] <ikonia_> UbuntuN00B_HBG doesn't matter - you don't get it
[02:23] <ikonia_> UbuntuN00B_HBG just change the permissions
[02:23] <jrib> screen ssh -D 8080 anapnea.net
[02:24] <UbuntuN00B_HBG> ikonia_: how then?
[02:24] <ikonia_> UbuntuN00B_HBG just change the permissions
[02:25] <UbuntuN00B_HBG> ikonia_: chmod on the server?
[02:25] <ikonia_> UbuntuN00B_HBG yup
[02:25] <eilker> soundray : http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/8217/
[02:25] <eilker> i did it
[02:25] <soundray> UbuntuN00B_HBG: chown user.group /shared/dir if you want to change ownership
[02:25] <UbuntuN00B_HBG> in my case the shared folder is /home/Musik so...
[02:25] <UbuntuN00B_HBG> chmod 770 /home/Musik    ?
[02:26] <ikonia_> UbuntuN00B_HBG you need to work out the correct permissions 770 is pointless if the samba use is not in the right group
[02:26] <soundray> UbuntuN00B_HBG: at some point, you will have to go and check it out for yourself

[02:31] <sdide> is the old convention of "# some_command" and "$ some_command" meaning execute as root and normal user respectively - all forgotten?
[02:32] <ikonia_> sdide no - its still used
[02:32] <agliv> Well I'm back and it didn't work... but I think I know why....
[02:32] <eilker> soundray : http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/8218/ this is from kdm .log
[02:32] <ikonia_> agliv details
[02:32] <Chousuke> sdide: the difference is that sudo commands are executed as user. .)
[02:32] <freshmint> guspad, again back to the mame thing i added the repo. apt-get found the package put didnt install it
[02:32] <eilker> soundray : btw , kdm is already the newest version.
[02:33] <eilker> soundray : i have installed and reinstalled i810 drivers many times...
[02:33] <agliv> ikonia_:  it said that (hda1, 7) no such partition... which I guess makes sence... I only have 5 partitions... so why should there be a partition 7....
[02:33] <eilker> soundray : i had no problem in 6.06, i just upgraded 6.10 and problem occured
[02:34] <ikonia_> agliv how can you only have 5 partitions when you are using sda8 ?
[02:34] <guspad> freshmint, u can try installing xmame-x or kxmame
[02:34] <agliv> ikonia_: that's just the way gparted set everything up....
[02:34] <ikonia_> agliv nah - show me the output of sudo fdisk -l /dev/sda
[02:35] <soundray> ikonia_: sda1 primary, sda2 extended, sda5, sda6, sda7, sda8 logical -- five "visible" ones
[02:35] <ikonia_> agliv put it a pastebin please
[02:35] <ikonia_> ughhhhhh stupid gparted
[02:35] <soundray> agliv: I think the problem may be the space -- use (hda1,7) instead of (hda1, 7)
[02:35] <toodles> eilker: I had a similar problem when I upgraded. Mine was fixed by running "sudo apt-get dist-upgrade" twice.
[02:35] <EnsignRedshirt> Is anyone else having trouble with Firefof after today's upgrade?  For example, now Edit->Preferences does nothing.
[02:35] <EnsignRedshirt> *Firefox
[02:35] <ikonia_> soundray I didn't say to put in a space, must be a typo
[02:36] <eilker> toodles: it doesnt work for me
[02:36] <ikonia_> soundray won't grub still only see 5 partitions so it should be hd1,4
[02:36] <cisforcojo> hey guys, this ipod problem is killing me
[02:36] <sdide> I have no problems with Firefox.
[02:36] <soundray> ikonia_: yep, me neither
[02:36] <ikonia_> soundray as grub counts partitions - not references names
[02:36] <cisforcojo> /dev/sda2              3944260   2630520   1313740  67% /media/ipod
[02:36] <Eko_Hermiyanto> hello
[02:36] <Eko_Hermiyanto> I have an ubuntu system with GNOME desktop
[02:36] <cisforcojo> it registers as a 4GB drive but there's NOTHING on the device
[02:36] <ikonia_> cisforcojo I gave you a possible solution
[02:36] <Eko_Hermiyanto> how I can chance the spash screen?
[02:36] <cisforcojo> just formatting folders
[02:36] <ikonia_> cisforcojo did you research it
[02:36] <cisforcojo> ikonia: i might have missed it
[02:36] <Eko_Hermiyanto> because there is only gdmsetup
[02:36] <Eko_Hermiyanto> but no other thing
[02:36] <freshmint> guspad, xmame isnt in PATH (/usr/bin/.) the terminal doesnt have to command
[02:37] <soundray> ikonia_: no, it counts the same way as the device naming -- just starts at 0 instead of 1
[02:37] <sdide> does anyone know how I can restart blackbox with a command (not using the menu).
[02:37] <Eko_Hermiyanto> how I can set-up the spash screen?
[02:37] <cisforcojo> ikonia: yeah a lot. even posted on ubuntuforums
[02:37] <agliv> soundray: that space might just be a typo from me now and not in the grub.lst... I'd have to check...
[02:37] <freshmint> guspad, does xmame come as RE
[02:37] <ikonia_> cisforcojo you can't access an ipod drive nativly you need a 3rd party app like itunes to keep the TOC updated
[02:37] <ikonia_> cisforcojo your TOC probably still thinks you've got 4 gig of data on there as the TOC has not been updated
[02:37] <jrib> Eko_Hermiyanto: which one?
[02:37] <mike1o> how do i add extra languages spell checking in openoffice?
[02:37] <cisforcojo> even when i use gtkPod or something it doesn't list the free space
[02:37] <EnsignRedshirt> I am using Dapper, and after today's update, Edit-Preferences does not, and Tools->Extensions pops up an error window saying "XML Parsing Error: not well-formed"
[02:37] <spinster> hello people, how in bitchx i can do EXPORT to set nickname/server/ident/realname... ? somebody knows
[02:37] <cisforcojo> or amarok
[02:38] <EnsignRedshirt> s/does not/does nothing/
[02:38] <Eko_Hermiyanto> jrib, I want to chance the splash screen of my ubuntu gnome desktop
[02:38] <ikonia_> cisforcojo because you've messed up the TOC (in my opinion)
[02:38] <mneptok> spinster: pm?
[02:38] <Eko_Hermiyanto> but is there tool to do that?
[02:38] <agliv> ikonia_: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/8219/
[02:38] <jrib> Eko_Hermiyanto: the one you get after you login?  With the brown background?
[02:38] <soundray> eilker: still thinking about your prob
[02:38] <spinster> mneptok: what ?
[02:38] <Eko_Hermiyanto> because I am trying to do that with gdmsetup
[02:38] <Eko_Hermiyanto> but not success
[02:38] <Eko_Hermiyanto> jrib, yes
[02:38] <agliv> soundray: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/8219/
[02:38] <mneptok> spinster: may i msg you?
[02:38] <cisforcojo> alright. i'll try reformatting in windows and try again
[02:38] <Eko_Hermiyanto> jrib, yes it is
[02:38] <amorphous_> soundray, i'm very noob - dyndns.com is going a bit over my head - do you know of any simple/laymans texts for networking explanations?
[02:38] <spinster> mneptok: ok
[02:38] <jrib> !splash | Eko_Hermiyanto
[02:38] <ubotu> Eko_Hermiyanto: To change the Gnome splash screen, use !gnome-splashscreen-manager or change the GConf key /apps/gnome-session/options/splash_image using !gconf-editor.
[02:38] <eilker> soundray : thanx
[02:38] <ikonia_> amorphous_ its nothing to do with ubuntu try ##linux for general linux networking
[02:38] <OrTigaS> hi! if i downloaded a program and wanted to be in "Apllications tab" ,how to do that?
[02:38] <Eko_Hermiyanto> jrib, ubotu thank you very much
[02:39] <toodles> eilker: Hmm. I know that many people had problems upgrading from 6.04 to 6.10 and the only solution seemed to be to reinstall. However your problem seems like it's fixable. Just don't know how (yet).
[02:39] <agliv> Does anyone know how to address multiple nicknames with the same message?
[02:39] <amorphous_> ikonia, thanks :)
[02:39] <EnsignRedshirt> sdide, soundray: Are you using Dapper?  Do you have any extensions installed in Firefox?
[02:39] <guspad> freshmint, i think it's a virtual package u should install an other, something like http://my.opera.com/Mr%20Green/blog/show.dml/171040
[02:39] <soundray> eilker: it might be easiest if you tried to upgrade the "held" packages with synaptic.
[02:39] <apokryphos> agliv: in IRC?
[02:39] <agliv> apokryphos: yes
[02:39] <soundray> EnsignRedshirt: no dapper here
[02:39] <sdide> Using edgy. no extensions
[02:39] <apokryphos> agliv: just mention all of the names in your post.
[02:39] <ikonia_> agliv just space the nicks out
[02:40] <eilker> soundray : it cant allow, it says broken
[02:40] <soundray> amorphous_: http://www.oreilly.com/catalog/linag2/book/index.html
[02:40] <agliv> ikonia_:  apokryphos Hey, it works... cool :)
[02:40] <eilker> toodles: it takes to much time...to reinstall
[02:40] <soundray> eilker: which package is broken?
[02:40] <Eko_Hermiyanto> jrib, there is no such program in default installation... but I can manage to install it with apt-get... thank you so much
[02:40] <mike1o> i installed openoffice.org-thesaurus-it & openoffice.org-l10n-it but i still cant spell check documents in italian? does anybody know why?
[02:40] <ikonia_> agliv me and soundray differ in opinion here so either could be right, from memory I thought grub counted the partitions so that the 4th partition would be (hd1,3) rather than (hd1,6) - I think it counts the partitions, soundray thinks it gets the ID from the partition name
[02:41] <zyth> mikalaukka, did you specify the dictionaries in openoffice?
[02:41] <zyth> er mike1o
[02:41] <soundray> ikonia_: that's not what I said though ;)
[02:41] <toodles> eilker: Yeah, I know. Mind you, using the live cd to install is getting quicker and quicker. 20mins on my machine. It's just all the extra programs then take forever.
[02:41] <ikonia_> mike1o someone in #ubuntu-it may
[02:41] <eilker> python things, now i did aptitude , it makes some upgrade and downgrade
[02:41] <ikonia_> soundray I may have missunderstood you
[02:41] <agliv> ikonia_:  now how did we get my HD mounted under the LiveCD again... I have a terrible short-term memory....
[02:41] <ikonia_> agliv use the mount commmand - mount /dev/sda1 /mnt
[02:41] <ikonia_> with sudo
[02:42] <sdide> mike1o: # apt-get install aspell-it ?
[02:42] <soundray> ikonia_, agliv: the result is the same though -- to get the grub partition number, you subtract one from the number in the Linux device name.
[02:42] <ikonia_> agliv tell you what - install open ssh server on your live cd - and I'll ssh in and fix the gurb boot loader
[02:42] <eilker> soundray : i had kdevelop too, does it make crash ??
[02:42] <ikonia_> soundray is that true of the number or the position on the partition table
[02:42] <agliv> ikonia_:  soundray seeing as how sda8 is my last partiton (I think) wouldn't -1 work?
[02:42] <ikonia_> agliv -1 ??? no
[02:43] <soundray> eilker: no
[02:43] <eilker> toodles: live cd on download now ?
[02:43] <toodles> eilker: Yeah, the 6.10 one.
[02:43] <ikonia_> agliv if you give me access to your box I'll tee the output so you can see what I type and I'll explain it too so that you understand
[02:44] <erikja> !sound
[02:44] <ubotu> If you're having problems with sound, first ensure ALSA is selected, by double clicking on the volume control, then File -> Change Device (ALSA Mixer). If that fails, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Sound - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting - http://alsa.opensrc.org/index.php?page=DmixPlugin - For playing audio files, see !Players and !MP3

[02:44] <agliv> ikonia_:  installed... what do you mean by super even?

[02:50] <soundray> eilker: no, I don't think so
[02:50] <erikja> !sound >erikja
[02:50] <bullgard1> dartrunner: I would google fpr 'Linux' and 'Compaq Armada 7400' and 'sound card'
[02:50] <soundray> eilker: have you followed these instructions: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/i810
[02:51] <jussi01> invisibleman, it can be, just depends what you want. if dapper is working fine, dont bother
[02:51] <ToeNad> I'm interested to see what iptables modules have been compiled into the default kernel, can anyone point me in the correct direction?
[02:52] <rmathews_> how do I get sound working on Xubuntu Edgy.  I have an old SiS 630/730 motherboard with an on board card.  Not sure what chipset .. think it is 7018 or 7012 .. any ideas? (was disconnected)
[02:52] <dartrunner> bullgard1: I have and can't really find anything
[02:52] <invisibleman> jussi01, dapper is really good, but there is a better performance on edgy? is it too slow?
[02:52] <zyth> ;)
[02:54] <eilker> soundray : no i didnt, let me try
[02:55] <bullgard1> dartrunner: I have had similar problems, but with other hardware. May be it helps to google for the specific error message that you obtained.
[02:55] <soundray> ToeNad: less /boot/config-$(uname -r)
[02:55] <jussi01> invisibleman, edgy has similar performance - have you thought about trying xubuntu?
[02:58] <dartrunner> bullgard1: not getting any error message, unless I try to open an app that uses sound, then I get a message that there is no device to write to.
[03:01] <bullgard1> dartrunner: This message is not helpful for your purpose. As I do not know your soundcard I cannot help you. Sorry.

[03:06] <mag_> I have .mozilla
[03:07] <jrib> mag_: yeah ~ means /home/$USER .  There's also ~/.mozilla/firefox/UNIQUE_ID.default .  You could just get rid of that instead.
[03:07] <EnsignRedshirt> gili: You shouldn't have to run them as root. In the past, I have seen your problem caused by the file .ICEAuthority in your home directory being owned by root.  Maybe check that.
[03:08] <cable_guy> hi

[03:13] <cable_guy> jussi01: hmm... that's interesting... will i be getting the exact same thing?
[03:13] <dr_willis> witless,  scp will do encryption also.. so should be a little bit slower.

[03:35] <kbd> Anyone else experience gnome breaking when they install an icon theme? :/
[03:35] <dyrne> harveyd: specify full path to ebin ?
[03:35] <RC> ubotu thanks....another 1: my laptop isn't showing the correct resolution so where can i find a fix?
[03:36] <harveyd> i tried that
[03:36] <harveyd> cd / actually gives me no file or directory
[03:36] <harveyd> something is funny with this
[03:37] <piiimp> i mistakenly deleted the lower bar that displays my tasks, etc in ubuntu, how can i put it back?
[03:37] <harveyd> hmm, the whitespace might have been screwing it up
[03:37] <kbd> right click your existing panel
[03:37] <kbd> select "new panel"

[03:39] <car_watt> see sorry
[03:39] <kbd> piiimp: you probably had "Show Desktop", the Desktop Selector or something like that, and the task list thinger
[03:39] <etcadmin> I have a Ubuntu server query
[03:39] <kbd> you'll see all the icons are very self explanatory
[03:39] <piiimp> yup its pretty straightforward
[03:40] <piiimp> im just trying to remember what was on it before
[03:40] <piiimp> but its cool ill customize it
[03:40] <kbd> If anyone is on Edgy, stay away from an icon theme named "Neutral"
[03:40] <kbd> It broke my account :/
[03:40] <quiet> kbd, it's not an icon theme, it's an xcursor theme
[03:41] <quiet> it shows up in icons... but it's not...
[03:41] <kbd> quiet: ah yeah, thats the one
[03:41] <kbd> quiet: has this happened to you?
[03:41] <quiet> yep
[03:41] <harveyd> my kate has kde default encoding
[03:41] <kbd> How did you fix it?
[03:41] <quiet> on various distro's... accidentally.
[03:41] <harveyd> unix end of lines
[03:41] <quiet> it's not just edgy
[03:41] <quiet> i've done it on Arch, too.
[03:42] <harveyd> but if i save a shell script in it
[03:42] <harveyd> it screws up somehow
[03:42] <quiet> just delete your ~/.gtk* settings
[03:42] <kbd> quiet: you got the whole dbus freaking out and everything?
[03:42] <quiet> umm.. it's completely emptied my desktop and i couldn't do anything.
[03:43] <quiet> so i went to console and removed the settings.
[03:43] <kbd> ah
[03:43] <etcadmin> Hi all, I am running ubuntu 6.10 server and I am getting disconnected every once in a while from the server. It is running apache2 and ssh. I connect to the site fine for most times, but every once in a while I get a 404 error. It then disconnects me from ssh and tells me the connection is refused on port 22 when trying to reconnect. It lasts for a few minutes and then I can refresh again. Can anyone help?
[03:44] <Tomcat_> etcadmin: LAN or WAN?
[03:44] <etcadmin> LAN
[03:44] <Reuben> question: how do i install skype?
[03:44] <dyrne> Tomcat_: 3 dollar router? :)
[03:44] <javiolo> what app should I use for wifi manager ?
[03:44] <etcadmin> lol Netgear gigabit
[03:45] <Tomcat_> dyrne: Well in the case of a router problem he shouldn't be getting 404s :)
[03:45] <etcadmin> I get the apache2 404 page, not the normal browser 404 page too
[03:45] <etcadmin> at least thats what I think I get
[03:47] <etcadmin> I will try a different network cable and port
[03:47] <skar> hi, anyone know how to find the package which contains the 'net-snmp-config' utility?
[03:47] <bhsx> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Skype
[03:47] <harveyd> i cant same a multiline shell script in kate
[03:48] <harveyd> it screws up
[03:48] <harveyd> using unix line ending
[03:48] <harveyd> by screwed up i mean it wont run a command after i add another line
[03:49] <jrib> harveyd: example?
[03:49] <Dr_willis> when in doubt make a simple test case, (like with just echoing things) and show the issue.
[03:50] <SeanTater> What programs are available for automatically converting between office formats?
[03:50] <harveyd> http://cpp.sourceforge.net/?show=32065
[03:50] <jrib> skar: yeah, packages.ubuntu.com lets you search package contents.  Or use apt-file
[03:50] <etcadmin> Oh yeah, BTW, even when the 404 and ssh errors occur, I can still ping the machine
[03:50] <skar> jrib: thanks
[03:51] <harveyd> first 2 lines are the shell script ./compile_code
[03:51] <dyrne> harveyd: i had same problem using mcedit once.  my solution since then has been vim :)
[03:51] <baggito> i still don't get it. generic or 386?
[03:51] <jrib> harveyd: you forgot the shebang
[03:51] <dyrne> harveyd: any ideas in #kubuntu?
[03:52] <jrib> harveyd: you aren't in the right directory
[03:52] <harveyd> would #!/bin/bash help?
[03:52] <kbd> quiet: Actually that doesn't seem to do anything for me, instead after the splash comes up and the login sound plays, nothing happens. The splash stays there.
[03:52] <orangefly> i have a dell latitude d520....i am dual booting windows and ubuntu....the only thing stopping me from using only ubuntu is i can't get my wireless to work....if someone can help, i'll be free of windows....
[03:52] <quiet> right... with no icons, right?
[03:52] <kbd> quiet: yup
[03:52] <jrib> harveyd: it won't fix the fact you aren't in the right directory, but you should have that shebang line there, yes
[03:53] <quiet> go to console and rm -rf ~/.gtk*
[03:53] <kbd> I did :/
[03:53] <quiet> hrm.. hold on
[03:53] <harveyd> jrib, "I" am in the correct directory
[03:54] <jrib> harveyd: paste result of 'ls'
[03:54] <Dr_willis> you could also try 'bash compile_code'
[03:54] <Dr_willis> byeee
[03:54] <freezey> can i format my external harddrive through a linux terminal?>
[03:55] <harveyd> http://cpp.sourceforge.net/?show=32066
[03:55] <wheels3572> Can anyone tell me how to extract a .tar.gz file to a specific location?
[03:55] <harveyd> thats with the 'shebang'
[03:55] <kbd> ah crap, quiet: I have to leave *rightnow* for a job interview
[03:55] <dyrne> freezey: mkfs.vfat /dev/sda1     or .ext3 or whatnot
[03:55] <kbd> bbl everyone!
[03:56] <quiet> kbd, you can create a new user and then cp -Rfv ~/newuser ~/olduser
[03:56] <jrib> harveyd: oh I see... you said kate did this?  that's really weird...  You can use dos2unix to convert the script, but kate shouldn't be doing this.  Check its preferences maybe
[03:56] <freezey> dyrne: the drive is already mounted and its not formated yet it still has NTFS on it
[03:56] <harveyd> bah, i put the files on windows to transfer them
[03:57] <madison> towers
[03:57] <bhsx> i've been trying like heck to get Beryl installed and working.  I've gotten the white screen or a loss of 3d drivers each time... can anyone help me out?  6.10 and ATI x300...
[03:57] <harveyd> but i didnt even open them in windows, that sucks
[03:57] <dyrne> freezey: youll have to sudo umount /mountpoint   first then do the mkfs command
[03:57] <a5benwillis> can a sim link be created using the%user variable?
[03:57] <dyrne> freezey: maybe i misunderstood the question
[03:57] <harveyd> will something go through a whole folder changing dos2unix?
[03:58] <jrib> a5benwillis: what is the %user variable?
[03:58] <dyrne> a5benwillis: mod user?   or you mean like ln -s /something /home/$USER/shortcut
[04:00] <a5benwillis> dyrne: I want to create a simlink to a folder in a users home folder that does not yet exist and put this sym link in /etc/skel so that all new users getthe link on their desktop.
[04:00] <JohnRobert> ok
[04:00] <JohnRobert> to create a link to something that doesn't exist, it'd probably be ln -fs or something
[04:01] <jrib> harveyd: to do it recusively, you would use 'find'.  If you use zsh:  dos2unix **/* would do the trick...
[04:02] <harveyd> its cool, think i found all the shell script
[04:02] <harveyd> doesnt seem to have affected my source files luckily

[04:28] <rysiek|pl> guys, anybody tried to run newest ati drivers on ubuntu?
[04:28] <jef`> nope
[04:28] <jrib> SpaceBass: np
[04:28] <jef`> i'm interseted thoug
[04:28] <jef`> rysiek|pl: tell me how they run
[04:28] <rysiek|pl> jef`: kids, do *NOT* try this at home
[04:28] <jussi01> rysiek|pl, is there a proble,m?
[04:29] <jef`> ryanakca: i'm not a kid. and I've used much riskier things than a few midinght ati releases.
[04:29] <jef`> rysiek|pl: *
[04:29] <Jaguar> rysieklpl: I think that the Envy script now supports installing the newst ATI drivers, but you'll have to double check.
[04:29] <Martyo> Is it possible to start a shell script from a desktop shortcut but not add it to the taskbar?
[04:30] <rysiek|pl> jef`: ati/amd has taken fscking the drivers up to the next level with introducing some daemon that apparently monitors the changes in xorg.conf and whatever you do to try to make it work - it changes it back to default
[04:30] <rysiek|pl> not to mention that the drivers just don't work(tm)
[04:30] <jef`> rysiek|pl: kill the daemon & remove it from your rc?
[04:31] <reisii> hi can somebody helf me?
[04:31] <d0dge> Could anyone help me with this error: "cannot find curses library
[04:31] <jef`> just ask, reisii

[04:34] <jussi01> etcadmin, have you openend port 80 on the firewall?
[04:34] <etcadmin> yes
[04:34] <xamox> mando, I had Azureus, running on my NAS, was using AzSMRC to connect to it and it was nice, but moved to Ubuntu on my main platform and AzSMRC doesn't want to play nice, so I'm just thinking of moving to something else, plus Azureus eats up a lot of mem.
[04:34] <etcadmin> its intermittent
[04:34] <etcadmin> I can always ping the computer
[04:34] <etcadmin> but sometimes I get disconnected from ssh and the apache
[04:35] <jussi01> etcadmin, not really sure, how is your net connection?
[04:35] <etcadmin> I'm in an education environemt
[04:36] <mando> xamox: I know, but isn't every torrent client eatin up a lot of mem ? So do you have any other suggestions ?
[04:36] <mando> xamox: find the window, that shows up on ubuntu when you download a torrent just innoing ...
[04:36] <etcadmin> my laptop connects to a gigswitch, then to the 10/100 switch for the rest of the network. Server connects to the same 10/100 switch
[04:37] <Jaguar> etcadmin: University networks are notoriously unstable, I have some friends that can't keep a lot of their persistent connections for more than 25 minutes, it's awful.
[04:37] <etcadmin> we run a bunch of servers and this is the only one that disconnects
[04:37] <etcadmin> the computer and server was connected to the same gig switch
[04:37] <etcadmin> that seemed to give me more 404 errors

[04:42] <agliv> Greetings all :) If anybody is still around that was helping me earlier, I'm back and it didn't work, again....
[04:42] <[H4z3] > I have no clue.. Any ideas?
[04:43] <Scanztz> could not apply packages. fix broken pakages first!
[04:43] <merc> [H4z3] : have you even checked the forums/google yet?
[04:43] <cornucopia> hi
[04:43] <Scanztz> installing package(s) gstreamer0.10-plugins-ugly, gstreamer0.10-plugins-ugly-multiverse, gstreamer0.10-plugins-bad-multiverse, gstreamer0.10-ffmpeg, gstreamer0.10-plugins-bad, libxine-extracodecs, libxine-main1, faad, sox, lame, ffmpeg, mjpegtools, vorbis-tools, libxvidcore4
[04:44] <[H4z3] > Yeah i did.. what i tried wouldnt work.. i wouldnt come here otherwise
[04:44] <merc> Scanztz: so, your real problem is you need to know how to fix packages...
[04:44] <Scanztz> how do i do that
[04:44] <merc> [H4z3] : just checking, sorry, i have no idea..
[04:44] <merc> Scanztz: not sure off hand, should be easy to find out though.
[04:44] <jussi01> Scanztz, go to syaptic and choose fix broken packages from the menu
[04:44] <cornucopia> I get the following error when trying to encrypt a partition:Incompatible libdevmapper 1.02.07
[04:44] <Scanztz> merc: u right, it was easy to find out
[04:44] <d0dge> Argh, what's up with this thing; make: *** [binary-arch]  Error 1
[04:44] <merc> Scanztz: hah! cheater!
[04:45] <Jvik> i have installed ssh server, but what is the command for starting it ?
[04:45] <etcadmin> sudo /etc/ini.d/ssh start
[04:45] <etcadmin> I think
[04:45] <merc> sshd
[04:45] <dyrne> Jvik: it is started already if tyou 'ps -A | grep sshd' youll see it but sudo /etc/init.d/ssh restart  will do it
[04:45] <etcadmin> sudo /etc/init.d/sshd start
[04:45] <merc> nope
[04:45] <Jaguar> Scanztz: You could run apt-get check or apt-get --fix-broken
[04:45] <merc> i was wrong :D
[04:46] <etcadmin> me too
[04:46] <merc> yours was a typo though..
[04:46] <merc> wait, i mean, so was mine..
[04:46] <Jvik> sudo: /etc/init.d/sshd: command not found
[04:46] <Jvik>  | sshd re-exec requires execution with an absolute path
[04:46] <etcadmin> lol
[04:46] <merc> :)
[04:46] <Jvik> none of them worked
[04:46] <jrib> Jvik: ssh not sshd
[04:46] <merc> "sudo /etc/init.d/ssh start"
[04:46] <merc> no quotes :)
[04:46] <gharz> guys, i've avi... how can i watch it? i tried playing a DVD and it's working.
[04:47] <gharz> pls help
[04:47] <Jaguar> gharz: Try VLC?
[04:47] <Scanztz> doesnt seem to be anything
[04:47] <merc> gharz: should just be able to click on it from the file browser..
[04:47] <etcadmin> VLC
[04:47] <Jvik> oh.. Thats true :) its already started
[04:47] <merc> came here with an already solved problem! how dare you!
[04:47] <pi_> hi guys
[04:48] <rysiek|pl> Jaguar: what is the "Envy script"?
[04:48] <gharz> ok thanks.
[04:48] <jussi01> !envy | rysiek|pl

[04:48] <gharz> nice job... it worked with vlc!
[04:48] <pi_> Yestarday night I've turn off my pc with Edgy; today when the system show the login window, I insert my login and password and the system seems to start but shows another time the login window.
[04:48] <pi_> any idea?
[04:48] <Scanztz> !automatix
[04:48] <ubotu> automatix is a script that tries to install some software, and often fails and breaks systems. We don't provide support for it, and we strongly discourage its use. Problems caused by Automatix are often hard to track and solve, and it might sometimes be easier to !install a fresh copy of Ubuntu. See also !WorksForMe
[04:48] <rysiek|pl> jussi01: thanks! :)
[04:48] <Jaguar> jussi01: I'll check let you answer everything :P
[04:48] <jussi01> np's
[04:49] <pi_> error in locking authority file /home/pi/.Xauthority
[04:49] <merc> damn, ubotu hates automatix
[04:49] <soundray> pi_: your disk might be full. Examine $HOME/.xsession-errors to find out what's wrong
[04:49] <jussi01> Jaguar, sorry, didnt mean to jump the gun..
[04:49] <Scanztz> dude, wat do i do now? im hatingthis
[04:49] <pi_> ok, just moment
[04:49] <Jaguar> jussi01: Hehe, no, you saved me a lot of typing.
[04:49] <merc> Scanztz: fixing the broken stuff iddnt work?
[04:49] <Scanztz> it didnt seem like anything broken
[04:49] <jrib> pi_: check permissions on ~/.Xauthority too
[04:50] <merc> Scanztz: it told you that?
[04:50] <pi_> I have tried to set 777
[04:50] <pi_> nothing
[04:50] <pi_> the problem is always the same
[04:50] <jrib> pi_: what does  ls -l ~/.Xauthority    return?
[04:51] <jussi01> Scanztz, when did the problem start? did you try to install something?
[04:51] <pi_> -rw------
[04:51] <jrib> no, the whole line
[04:51] <Scanztz> easyubuntu
[04:51] <Scanztz> it wont let me install the codecs
[04:51] <merc> brb.
[04:52] <Chameleon22> hi all, is there an easy way to grep for info out of a CHM file from command line (need to script for 100's of files)?
[04:52] <idiot_> are there any tools to get statistics on disk read writes?
[04:52] <jussi01> how did you install it? from a deb?
[04:52] <idiot_> like a top for disks?
[04:52] <Taime1> is there a program that lets oyu create your own fonts?
[04:53] <jussi01> Scanztz, how did you install it? from a deb?
[04:53] <Scanztz> think so
[04:53] <mastertsunami> i'm running feisty and upgrading every day or so, but I find that I miss packages even when issuing a dist-upgrade; is this going to be problem when 7.04 is completed or is there some switch they throw?
[04:54] <Scanztz> dont remember
[04:54] <Scanztz> surely there is a package?
[04:54] <dyrne> Chameleon22: like for i in "./*"; do grep something $i;done  ?
[04:54] <jussi01> mastertsunami, #ubuntu+1
[04:54] <GFawkes> hello, i need some help with configuring my X700 vga card, is there anyone who can help me?
[04:55] <jussi01> Scanztz, I think maybe sudo apt-get install easyubuntu --reinstall may work
[04:55] <Chameleon22> dyrne, well sort of, the main question if how to grep information from a CHM formatted file, CHM is a binary file
[04:55] <Scanztz> but i have already installed a few packages
[04:55] <Scanztz> is that ok?
[04:55] <jussi01> GFawkes, what brand is that ati?
[04:55] <Chameleon22> dyrne, but say xchm can view/render the  file. What i want is the same from cli
[04:55] <jussi01> Scanztz, should be fine
[04:55] <dyrne> Chameleon22: yeah sorry ;p  im not sure about parsing chm files
[04:56] <GFawkes> its made by ati self i think, its an Ati Radeon Mobility X700
[04:56] <Chameleon22> dyrne, me neither :(

[04:56] <tuna-fish> What is the best program for burning audio cd:s for ubuntu?
[04:56] <Jaguar> jussi01: I can see why you guys made that script.
[04:56] <DaveTarmac> ok folks - back again with more networking questions.
[04:56] <GFawkes> can i just apt-get install envy that?
[04:57] <Guerrand> GFawkes .. no ... but follow the instructions its really really simple
[04:57] <jussi01> Jaguar, we didnt - alberto milone did, but its very good :D
[04:57] <Jaguar> jussi01: I meant the !envy @ ubotu.
[04:57] <jussi01> GFawkes, go to the page listed there, it has all the instruction
[04:57] <vignesh> Hi
[04:57] <GFawkes> o dear a commandline app :(
[04:57] <Jaguar> But yeah, Envy is impressive.
[04:57] <jussi01> Jaguar, hehe, yeah, there are lots of good ones
[04:58] <LinTux> how can I open a RAR file in Linux?
[04:58] <jussi01> GFawkes, just copy and paste - the instructions are made for ubuntu
[04:58] <vignesh> I am unable to see the mic control in the gnome volume mixer.. anyway to enable the mic ?

[04:58] <vignesh> I have an Intel 946GZ motherboard
[04:58] <Scanztz> einstallation of easyubuntu is not possible, it cannot be downloaded.
[04:58] <Scanztz> 0 up
[04:59] <DaveTarmac> I have changed my network encryption back to WEP, and I'm pretty sure that I have installed the MadWifi driver (is there a way I can check?) but how do i get it to access the network?
[04:59] <jussi01> Scanztz, I think maybe sudo apt-get remove easyubuntu could work also then try and reinstall
[05:00] <raul> silly question: its normal when gnome-panel and xchat get 4.0 GB of RAM in the System Monitor?
[05:00] <jussi01> raul, no, not normal
[05:01] <jussi01> Guerrand, yes, 101 q's are normal
[05:01] <jussi01> lol
[05:01] <raul> jussi01: what u think is wrong
[05:01] <Guerrand> oh :S
[05:01] <vignesh> anyone ?
[05:01] <jussi01> raul, how so?
[05:02] <mksds> hey

[05:03] <mksds> hey
[05:03] <agliv> soundray: were you helping me out earlier together with ikonia_ ?
[05:03] <jussi01> !hi | mksds
[05:03] <ubotu> mksds: Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu!
[05:03] <SpaceBass> any canonical folks here?
[05:03] <SnCln1> morning people!  I'm looking to authenticate my machine in an AD2003 environment.  Have you done this before?
[05:03] <soundray> agliv: not really, but I remember the conversation :)
[05:03] <Taime1> can you make your own fonts in linux?
[05:03] <Lunar_Lamp> I want to install a pastebin on my own webserver so that it will be private to people with only the password.  How do I do this?
[05:04] <soundray> agliv: how are you getting on?
[05:04] <SpaceBass> SnCln1, I have....and in the process of doing it again with edgey server
[05:04] <agliv> soundray: well in any case it didn't work again
[05:04] <raul> jussi01: just forget it, I chek ps command line and everything is ok... just system monitor is going crazy
[05:04] <riaal_> yey!! my graphic card woks!!!! thanks everyone who helped me!
[05:04] <soundray> agliv: so ikonia didn't fix it for you?
[05:04] <agliv> soundray: root (hd1,7) Error 22: No Such partition
[05:05] <SnCln1> SpaceBass: you've authenticated to an AD2003 environment?  In the work environment even?
[05:05] <SpaceBass> SnCln1, which version?
[05:05] <giuseppe_> ciao a tutti
[05:05] <GFawkes> ubuntu froze up again when i tried it....
[05:05] <SnCln1> I'm on feisty atm.
[05:05] <agliv> soundray: I'm really tired of messing arround with this... can I delete all partitions but the one with data and re-partition & re-install?
[05:05] <SpaceBass> SnCln1, yep...mostly with suse but also with 6.10 desktop
[05:06] <soundray> agliv: it's possible that grub swaps your drives for some reason. Try dropping to the grub commandline (hit C on the boot meu) and run geometry (hd0) and geometry (hd1)
[05:06] <SnCln1> SpaceBass: cool, did you follow a tutorial do authenticate?
[05:06] <SpaceBass> SnCln1, you using desktop or server?
[05:06] <SnCln1> SpaceBass: desktop
[05:06] <jussi01> GFawkes, try printing the instructions out and starting in recovery mode
[05:06] <soundray> agliv: if that's the case, you will have to use (hd0,7) instead of (hd1,7)
[05:06] <SpaceBass> SnCln1, on the desktop, no... I was able to use the GUI just fine, on the server side I've been reading some sites
[05:07] <giuseppe_> ragazzi ho una domanda ma i driver open ati sono uguali a i driver radeon?
[05:07] <soundray> !it | giuseppe_
[05:07] <ubotu> giuseppe_: Vai su #ubuntu-it o su #kubuntu-it se vuoi parlare in italiano, in questo canale usiamo solo l'inglese. Grazie!
[05:07] <agliv> soundray: then I'll have to boot again and liveCD back here again... and again...
[05:07] <SnCln1> SpaceBass: are you saying you authenticated a linux server to AD not a desktop?
[05:07] <SpaceBass> SnCln1, yes...linux to AD running on a 2003 DC
[05:07] <giuseppe_> sorry i wrong channel
[05:07] <agliv> can I change to (hd0,7) from inside grub?
[05:07] <soundray> agliv: your "radical" solution might be just as much work or more.
[05:08] <SpaceBass> SnCln1, you sound doubtful that it works :)
[05:08] <riaal_> whats the most up to date msn client?
[05:08] <SpaceBass> SnCln1, I do it with Linux and OS X all the time....but I'm moving to OD and away from AD now :)
[05:08] <agliv> soundray can I change to (hd0,7) from inside grub?
[05:08] <jussi01> riaal, amsn
[05:08] <SnCln1> SpaceBass: The reason I'm doing all this is as a potential replacement for administrative staff where a fast computer would be nice but windows just isn't cutting it.  Infact, these users are less adept...so inevitably they end up with spyware and viruses..that's why I'm considering Linux
[05:08] <mksds> hey, i'm connect to IRC trogh  telnet :)
[05:08] <soundray> agliv: yes, hit E on the menu entry you want to edit at boot
[05:08] <rysiek|pl> great. envy script installed the ati drivers, and the ati drivers - guess what? - just don't work(tm). anyone surprised?.. when XServer is being started a pretty-coloured, albeit unintelligible, pattern is displayed (by the way, te colours are... changing O_o'). Even Alt+Ctrl+F1 won't work. Ctrl-Alt-Del to gracefully shutdown the machine and I am back in the recovery mode.
[05:09] <riaal_> jussi01, thanks
[05:09] <SnCln1> SpaceBass: OSX, agreed...my fileserver here is a dual G5 xServe. :)
[05:09] <DaveTarmac> I do an 'ifconfig' and get 'lo' - what is this?
[05:09] <DaveTarmac> is this a MadWifi device?
[05:09] <merc> wewt
[05:09] <Scanztz> PLz is there any other way besides easyubuntu that i can get mp3 suppport?
[05:09] <merc> gnome feels weird after using fvwm for so long..
[05:09] <SpaceBass> SnCln1, I think right now thats a great idea...as little as 6 months ago maybe not...but with fistey or edgy then i dont see why not
[05:09] <soundray> DaveTarmac: no, loopback interface. Everybody has it & needs it
[05:09] <jussi01> riaal_, there is a good script once you have installed it for making it look nice - smooth fonts etc - do you want a copy?
[05:09] <DaveTarmac> ok, so i won't down it then - cheers
[05:09] <raul> anyone knows if there is a Beryl irc channel?
[05:09] <agliv> soundray could you give it to me again step by step so I can write this down?
[05:10] <soundray> !beryl | raul
[05:10] <ubotu> raul: Beryl is a window manager that takes advantage of an OpenGL accelerated X environment. See http://forum.beryl-project.org/ - Help in #ubuntu-effects
[05:10] <merc> raul: there is, i forget what it is though
[05:10] <Scanztz> dammit
[05:10] <SpaceBass> SnCln1, the only issue I've found is with writing files to CIFS shares....it doesnt seem to write the group correctly and sometimes ONLY the user who wrote the file can modify it
[05:10] <Scanztz> i was goint to type that
[05:10] <riaal_> Jussi01, sure thing. I will get back to you in a sec
[05:10] <SnCln1> SpaceBass: after beryl signed on...but the big thing is Ubuntu...it's seriously changed the face of linux...I've tried it over the years in the past decade but only now do I really see a tangible different and potential viability in the wild.
[05:10] <merc> Scanztz: you check the forums? im sure there's a 'manual' way.
[05:10] <antisystem32> hola
[05:10] <Guerrand> Scanztz: try automatix
[05:10] <raul> soundray: #ubuntu-effects is quit as a grave... nobody is alive in there
[05:11] <soundray> agliv: no, I have full confidence that you can do this yourself. Just read the messages on the screen
[05:11] <antisystem32> sala en espaol por favol
[05:11] <merc> raul: beryl has their own channel iirc.
[05:11] <SpaceBass> SnCln1, I agree...and I was late to come to that realization...been running SuSE and have only accepted Ubuntu in the past few months, but man what a difference
[05:11] <soundray> !es | antisystem32

[05:11] <SpaceBass> SnCln1, to get up and running on AD you'll need Kerberos, Samba, Windbind and NTP installed...which I think are all there by default
[05:11] <merc> plenty of bot masters, only one bot :P
[05:11] <antisystem32> no tienes ubuntu-es
[05:11] <raul> merc: u know the server and channel? type please

[05:12] <raul> jussi01: thnks
[05:12] <SnCln1> SpaceBass: sweet.  As for CIFS...is that just when a user accesses a network share and modifies a file?
[05:12] <FlippantBird> Need help! After installing XGL, ubuntu no longer loads the open source ATI driver, will only load MESA. xorg.conf is set for ATI. How do i fix?
[05:12] <jussi01> raul, np's
[05:12] <SpaceBass> SnCln1, yeah....cifs=windows file sharing
[05:12] <soundray> antisystem32: /join #ubuntu-es
[05:13] <SnCln1> SpaceBass: hmm I'll need to run some testing then.  thanks, I'm going to go play...I may check in later!  thanks again.
[05:13] <SpaceBass> SnCln1, good luck
[05:13] <pi_> I can't start my xorg -> trouble with .Xauthority -> I change the permissions to 777 but I find it with 600 and xorg doesn't start
[05:13] <Aladin_> My CPU supports the nx-bit features. Does Ubuntu use it? For all processes?
[05:14] <dyrne> pi_: rm ~/.Xa*
[05:14] <Guerrand> FlippantBiird: reconfigure xserver-xorg and select the right one
[05:14] <pi_> and after?
[05:14] <dyrne> pi_: login
[05:15] <FlippantBird> Guerrand: xorg is set to use ATI, still loads MESA anyway
[05:15] <Toma-> Aladin: no. not by default. you need to recompile with HIGHMEM64 enabled
[05:15] <system_e> Hi. I'm trying to build my own rmp but when i type rpm -ba *.spec i get -ba:unnown option. What should i install?
[05:15] <pi_> nothing
[05:15] <pi_> not solved
[05:15] <agliv> soundray: so it's gemetry then E for edit, correct? and how do I recognize if I need to edit?
[05:15] <Aladin> Toma-:  Does Ubuntu will support it in the future?
[05:16] <Guerrand> FlippantBird: think you will find the ATI driver is failing to load ... not 100% sure with ATI thought
[05:16] <pi_> I've removed and than STARTX, it was recreated
[05:16] <gavallo> hello
[05:16] <TheManiacKY> HELP. I just sooo messed up. I accidently put a file in the /etc/passwd and now Linux thinks the user accounts are stored in this file. And I can't log back in as root. Is there any way at bootup I can force the system not to load the /etc/passwd file or get me to where I can have enough root permissions to remove the file?
[05:16] <FlippantBird> Guerrand: thing is though it worked before i installed XGL
[05:16] <Toma-> Aladin: actually, it looks like the 64bit kernel; does have support for nx bit
[05:17] <sdy> hello
[05:17] <FlippantBird> Guerrand: where can i download the open source driver?
[05:17] <FlippantBird> Guerrand:so i can reinstall it?
[05:17] <soundray> agliv: you need to decide whether you want to check my theory about grub swapping your drives, or whether you want to try (hd0,7) straight away. Which is it?
[05:17] <dyrne> pi_: and you are currently owner of file?
[05:17] <pi_> yes
[05:17] <jussi01> !hi | sdy
[05:17] <ubotu> sdy: Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu!
[05:17] <Zaggynl>  I just tried to tar my www folder. When I try to access my apache server with localhost:port using a browser now, I get a tar file with a random name.
[05:17] <Guerrand> FlippantBird: would suggest using envy to sort it out ... solved my gfx problems nicely
[05:18] <FlippantBird> Guerrand: envy only gave me problems,
[05:18] <csci> Hi, I have a strange problem on a new installed ubuntu box (where ubuntu was installed without problems, before): The CPU-usage is around 90 - 100%, but top shows no processes with a high cpu time, but user% is around 90%. Any ideas of either finding the consuming proecesses or what process eats my cpu-time?
[05:18] <Guerrand> hahaha

[05:19] <Guerrand> FlippantBird: will havta ask one of these guys then ... because most of my experience is with the nvidia stuff ... sorry im not very helpful :P

[05:21] <MitchM> riaal_, try going into a terminal and typing "amsn"
[05:21] <gavallo> in turboprint the driver is not present
[05:22] <pi_> pi_: not sure thats odd? what does it means?
[05:22] <kski> is there a way to not type sudo everytime i want to change a setting with ifconfig, besides logging in as root?
[05:22] <riaal_> MitchM, why? how do I install the package?
[05:22] <gavallo> Who can help me??
[05:22] <merc> kski: sudo -s will start a shell as root iirc
[05:22] <MitchM> riaal_, if you used apt-get it is already installed.
[05:22] <pi_> if I launch sudo startx alla works fine
[05:22] <soundray> gavallo: ask Canon for a driver. They won't give you one, but it's good if they hear from customers that they want Linux drivers.
[05:22] <kski> merc: thanks
[05:22] <pi_> all not alla
[05:23] <ThunderM> how can i get in touch with ubuntu's developers ?
[05:23] <merc> kski: np
[05:23] <riaal_> MitchM, it is but for some reason it isn't the latest version
[05:23] <soundray> ThunderM: #ubuntu-devel or report a bug
[05:23] <Discovery> hey i need help everytime i what to shut down or reboo my computer fan speeds up and computer doent reboot anyone can help?
[05:23] <ThunderM> thanks
[05:23] <MitchM> riaal_, then that means that Ubuntu hasn't packaged the latest version for some reason. You'll probably have to compile from source.
[05:23] <riaal_> MitchM, that strange? what Im on 6.10
[05:23] <pi_> :-(
[05:24] <gavallo> ok
[05:24] <Taime1> whats the command to refresh font cache?
[05:24] <GMachine_24> I need the command/instructions for enabling my PCI firewire card as my second network interface (eth1) so I can use hard drives connected to it on my network. Anyone?
[05:24] <jussi01> riaal_, this script will give you the latest version - you just need a version installed
[05:24] <Discovery> hey i need help everytime i what to shut down or reboo my computer fan speeds up and computer doent reboot anyone can help?
[05:24] <MitchM> riaal, do and apt-get update, and then an apt-get upgrade
[05:25] <gavallo> <<in the web is present the driver for my printer canon?
[05:25] <riaal_> jussi01, oh, where do I find the script?
[05:25] <erUSUL> gavallo: linuxprinting.org
[05:25] <riaal_> jussi01, I have downloaded  "amsn-0.96-2.tcl84.x86.package"
[05:25] <jussi01> riaal_, there it is
[05:25] <gavallo> ok, but my printer is not present!!!!
[05:26] <soundray> GMachine_24: I'm either getting you completely wrong, or you are getting something completely wrong ;)
[05:26] <riaal_> jussi01, resend
[05:26] <soundray> gavallo: take it back to the store and ask for a printer with Linux support (hint: HP)
[05:27] <Discovery> is there anyone who can help me?
[05:27] <riaal_> jussi01, strange
[05:27] <jussi01> riaal_, there you are - you need to have a veriion installed beforhand, doesnt matter which one
[05:27] <soundray> gavallo: it's also worth asking the turboprint people whether they are planning to support your model. If they are, they might just give you a prerelease version for testing.
[05:27] <riaal_> jussi01, it won't transfer for some reason?
[05:28] <soundray> Discovery: you may have to use a boot option, like pci=noacpi
[05:28] <gavallo> ok
[05:28] <soundray> I'm unlucky that way it seems
[05:28] <riaal_> what do I do whit a .package file??
[05:28] <MagicBox> can anyone help me
[05:29] <soundray> riaal_: why do you need the latest version?

[05:36] <eetfunk> does anyone know how to fix the "svn: warning: cannot set LC_CTYPE locale" warning under Ubuntu?  I found instructions about installing the english language pack but it didnt help.  ALthough the problem happens with svn, it seems directly related to Ubuntu from what I read.
[05:37] <Nutubuntu> Hello all - is today's Firefox update the same as yesterday's, or have there really been two?
[05:37] <heanol> i have fglrx installed with DRI working, but when i start Xgl instead DRI seems to be gone and everything is so slow
[05:38] <soundray> Nutubuntu: questions like that can usually be answered by looking at /usr/share/doc/packagename/changelog.Debian.gz

[05:39] <K3nto> can you install ubuntu from any resource other than a cd
[05:39] <Toma-> Arkaitz: try some different values in the vga= option in your grub options
[05:39] <soundray> !install | K3nto

[05:39] <K3nto> the laptop i am installing it on(not mint) doesnt seem to want to take it
[05:39] <Arkaitz> Toma- how can I solve it, you know it?
[05:40] <Toma-> Arkaitz: i can give you hints, not a real rock solid solution
[05:40] <Arkaitz> hits would be fine
[05:40] <sivik_> finally
[05:40] <soundray> Arkaitz: first, you can answer the questions that are asked in response to your problem description
[05:40] <bluffer_> can some one tell me how i can install grub or lilo (it failed during installation process) i finished the installation without bootloader

[05:42] <Nutubuntu> t/y soundray - what am I looking for? Datestamp? /usr/share/doc/firefox/changelog.Debian.gz is datestamped several days ago ... but I know for sure I downloaded, installed, and restarted (and some of my extensions were outdated and got shut down) ... yesterday. Why the difference in dates? Or am I looking at the wrong thing?

[05:43] <DaveTarmac> i have follow instructions to the letter from http://madwifi.org/wiki/UserDocs/FirstTimeHowTo and no error have been kicked up. I have installed madwifi, connected to the network, put in my wep key, but now when I try to DHCP an address - it fails
[05:43] <soundray> Nutubuntu: look at the content of that file
[05:43] <DaveTarmac> Does anyone have any ideas?

[05:55] <bluffer_> so  what could be the best option without having to ahift delete the vhd and create a new one ? is the rescue  operation from alternate install cd ok ?
[05:55] <K3nto> oh when i boot from the live cd to ubuntu, i doublw click the install icon on the desktop and nothing happens for a while. then it freezes
[05:55] <K3nto> its an old pc and i read about the acpi thing
[05:55] <soundray> K3nto: how much memory do you have?
[05:55] <bluffer_> especially this command type $ grub-install /dev/hdaX where X is your Ubuntu root install.
[05:55] <K3nto> 128 i think
[05:56] <soundray> K3nto: get at least 128MB extra, then try again. Alternatively, install xubuntu.
[05:56] <bluffer_> when i first installed i made two partitions hda1 = swap hda2 = ext2 so i use /dev/hda2 ok ?
[05:57] <K3nto> soundray, ok thanks
[05:57] <K3nto> !xubuntu
[05:57] <ubotu> xubuntu is Ubuntu with Xfce instead of Gnome. For more info, see http://www.xubuntu.org and http://wiki.ubuntu.com/Xubuntu/ - To install from Ubuntu: "sudo apt-get install xubuntu-desktop". | For support, see #xubuntu | See also: !ubuntu and !xubuntu-channels

[06:00] <spotted> :\
[06:00] <soundray> spotted: not unless you say what the problem is
[06:00] <spotted> Can anyone help me with my MacBook Pro 15" 2,33 GHz? I'm having these issues: 1) I cannot select any entry once grub starts, lucky the default entry starts automatically hence it boots the kernel; 2) I have the same issue very often when I want to boot up from the Ubuntu Live cd: I cannot select any entry on the first screen when it boots up; 3) with edgy, not with feisty, if I switch to another teterminal I get a black screen, lucky whether

[06:01] <spotted> OK, let's try to fix the first one, which is the most boring
[06:02] <soundray> spotted: have you installed refit?
[06:02] <spotted> yes
[06:02] <spotted> refit loads grub and grub loads the kernel set as default in menu.lst
[06:02] <hanexar> I'm having problems to automount ipod. I can mount it manually, but I'd like to just pop-up on my desktop like my usb drives do. I'm using edgy with a 2nd gen nano
[06:02] <spotted> but i cannot select any entry inside it when it pops up
[06:03] <kazim51> somebody please help me with error 17
[06:03] <soundray> spotted: I don't know if refit has any configuration settings, but since it's supposed to emulate PC BIOS functions, it should have something like "Legacy mode for USB human interface devices"

[06:03] <tesuki_> hello, does anyone know off a good and functional bittorrent client. not KTorrent or Azureus.

[06:04] <ignus> does anyone know how to get embedded quicktime videos to play _in_ firefox??
[06:04] <hanexar> tesuki: what's wrong with azerues?
[06:04] <psusi> tesuki_: bit tornado
[06:04] <h4rdc0r3_> hallo
[06:04] <soundray> ignus: have you found something that plays them at all?

[06:05] <Toma-> tesuki_: Im using deluge after getting fed up with crappy torrent managers. Its absolutly beautiful.
[06:05] <soundray> ignus: answer my question please

[06:06] <soundray> !language | tesuki_
[06:06] <ubotu> tesuki_: Please watch your language and keep this channel family friendly.
[06:06] <ignus> soundray: no i have no quicktime encoded files to test with but i think gxine will be able to play them...
[06:06] <Toma-> tesuki_: http://deluge-torrent.org/
[06:06] <psusi> bittornado: clean, simple, light weight, and not attempting to be a file sharing nework knock off
[06:06] <hanexar> I'm using bit tornado when I only have single torrent to download... azureus for multiple
[06:07] <Zaggynl> wine utorrent ftw
[06:07] <ignus> soundray: is it actually possible to do or am i wasting my time?
[06:08] <psusi> why at one point when I messed up my system, I actually accessed the ubuntu web site from lynx, the old command line web browser, and it downloaded the livecd iso via the command line bit torrent client and I burned it and used it to repair my xwindows
[06:08] <abhinay> hey, Which engine is required for Yattacier 3 gtk theme [ http://art.gnome.org/themes/gtk2/598 ]  ??
[06:08] <michaelpo> i've downloaded bittorrent and gui... it does not show up in the menu.. how do i find it?
[06:08] <soundray> ignus: you need to decide on a player, then install a firefox plugin for that player. E.g. totem-xine plus totem-mozilla
[06:08] <ignus> ah ok
[06:08] <psusi> michaelpo: you don't run it directly, it opens when you open a .torrent file
[06:09] <michaelpo> oh... like that? different from win
[06:09] <soundray> kazim51: is this a big hard disk?
[06:09] <ignus> soundray: whats the firefox plugin for totem called?
[06:09] <erchache> solved!
[06:09] <psusi> michaelpo: that's how it works on windows too
[06:09] <soundray> ignus: totem-mozilla
[06:09] <erchache> i delete trusted.gpg and runs
[06:09] <erchache> perhaps is corrupt
[06:10] <michaelpo> psusi: thanks...
[06:10] <michaelpo> i try it now....
[06:10] <hanexar> Anyone know why I need to manually mount my ipod each time? I'd like it to automount like my other usb drive. My GF is not going to type any command line to make it work, she'll go directly to windows instead :/

[06:15] <TheVault> Got a question. Is there any software for linux that allows others to control your computer if you have trouble?
[06:16] <someothernick> michaelpo, the the torrent should be there
[06:16] <tsoler> sudo tar xvfz xampp-linux-1.6.tar.gz -C opt
[06:16] <tsoler> doesnt work
[06:16] <michaelpo> someothernick: yes... but it open with democracyplayer... where is the bittorent?

[06:17] <merc> TheVault: you mean, you want someone else 'controlling your desktop' stuff?
[06:17] <tumbl3r> TheVault: look into giving the person helping a user account and just use something like VNC over SSH
[06:17] <michaelpo> someothernick: i've just installed bittorrent... but when i open the torrent file... it uses the democracyplayer....
[06:17] <tsoler> i think i need a maual for tar commands
[06:17] <soundray> psusi: it's called doesntwork
[06:17] <slavik2> is it possible to resize a partition (extend it in the back) without formatting it?
[06:18] <merc> heh, vault stuck around a long time.

[06:18] <hanexar> alecjw: any other idea to get my ipod to automount?
[06:18] <slavik2> soundray: saw the answer, thanks
[06:18] <slavik2> couldn't find the answer :P
[06:18] <someothernick> michaelpo, right click torrent and open with bittorrent
[06:18] <kazim51> i m stuck... my system wont boot now :(
[06:18] <psusi> slavik2: yes, depends on the filesystem, but generally yes, gparted can do that
[06:18] <soundray> kazim51: how big is your hard disk?
[06:19] <alecjw> hanexar, in nautilus (the file browseR), your ipod should show up. double clikc on it. i know its not particuarly auto though......
[06:20] <michaelpo> someothernick: yeah... it works... how do i associate the torrent file with bittorrent instead of democracyplayer?
[06:20] <leafw> last fglrx update broke 3D acceleration. wtf?

[06:20] <someothernick> michaelpo, right click properties - "open with"
[06:21] <dyrne> michaelpo: in file manager it is similar to windows in that you can right click and select the app to open with i believe. but not too fam with gnome
[06:21] <riaal> will ubuntu teams "fuck up" the system like teams in windows?
[06:21] <K3nto> are applications that use wine supposed to be installed with root?
[06:21] <michaelpo> someothernick: how do i associate it permanently instead of right clicking all the time? just double click?
[06:21] <soundray> K3nto: no
[06:21] <hanexar> alecjw: sadly, it doesn't... I really need to mount it with mount command
[06:22] <michaelpo> are viruses executable when we use wine?

[06:22] <eMaX> hi
[06:22] <soundray> K3nto: you don't have to
[06:22] <eMaX> how can I default to a console based login on startup?
[06:23] <cyris> eMaX: change your init level to 3
[06:23] <someothernick> michaelpo, if you do what i said before it will be accociated with bittorrent
[06:23] <soundray> eMaX: 'sudo update-rc.d -f gdm remove'
[06:23] <K3nto> soundray: then what do i do? i assume im getting these errors becausre i installed it a root
[06:23] <dxdemetriou> how can I recompile my whole installed os to other architecture?
[06:23] <soundray> cyris: does that apply to edgy, too?
[06:24] <cyris> soundray: no sure man
[06:24] <michaelpo> someothernick: i did what u said... it is still associated with democracyplayer when i double click
[06:24] <cyris> soundray: not sure man
[06:24] <erUSUL> dxdemetriou: you can't
[06:24] <cyris> anyone with any ideas on my slapd issues ? http://rafb.net/p/4ehoAK15.html
[06:24] <soundray> dxdemetriou: you have to reinstall. To save your package list, use 'dpkg --get-selections' and 'dpkg --set-selections' on the newly installed system.
[06:24] <someothernick> michaelpo, right click ,properties ,open with, tick bittorrent

[06:25] <dxdemetriou> I mean to use the apt-build or something to compile everything from i386 to athlon-xp
[06:25] <dyrne> dxdemetriou: i usually just need a simle list of packages in easy to pipe stdout so i do:  cat /var/lib/dpkg/status| grep Package:| sed 's/Package: //' >packages.txt   or something
[06:25] <michaelpo> someothernick: how do i tick bittorent?
[06:25] <michaelpo> i cant

[06:26] <Lunar_Lamp> j #apache
[06:26] <soundray> !clone | dxdemetriou, dyrne, why not
[06:26] <ubotu> dxdemetriou, dyrne, why not: To replicate your packages selection on another machine (or restore it if re-installing), you can type "dpkg --get-selections > ~/my-packages", move the file "my-packages" to the other machine, and there type "sudo dpkg --set-selections < my-packages && apt-get dselect-upgrade"
[06:26] <someothernick> michaelpo, right click ,properties ,open with, add , find bittorrent ,tick bittorrent

[06:27] <michaelpo> someothernick: thanks...
[06:27] <riaal> Banshee or Amarok ?
[06:27] <soundray> dxdemetriou: for compiling, you would need the sources. Have you installed your present system from source packages with apt-build?
[06:27] <dyrne> soundray: that is a bit easier :)
[06:28] <tsoler> guys im trying to install xampp. I give sudo tar xvfz xampp-linux-1.6.tar.gz -C opt. But it semms i can not make it . WHY?
[06:28] <dxdemetriou> soundray, its with apt-get. I tried to use the apt-build world with all packages I can use, but it compile them as 386

[06:33] <soundray> mallox READ the private message you got from ubotu
[06:33] <soundray> dxdemetriou: not sure, but should it not say something like k7?
[06:34] <K3nto> if i installed a progam using wine  when i was root, how do i switch it over to the regualr user
[06:34] <dxdemetriou> soundray, It is configure from apt with this way. I'll try
[06:34] <cyris> is their anything similar to fedoras chkconfig for ubuntu dapper ?
[06:34] <mallox> soundray : hehe :)) thanx ;) & sorry
[06:34] <dyrne> cyris: what does ckhconfig do?
[06:35] <soundray> K3nto: copy it from the installed directory to your home (with sudo) and change the ownership to your username (also with sudo)

[06:39] <salty> look under ".wine" directory
[06:39] <K3nto> i found a shortcut to it in "/root/Desktop"
[06:39] <K3nto> i dont have a .wine directory though
[06:39] <salty> then it will be in /root/.wine

[06:39] <K3nto> i only have root/desktop
[06:39] <K3nto> no .wine folder there
[06:40] <soundray> K3nto: Have you TRIED ls /root/.wine/ ?
