[03:03] <longwave> beefsprocket: that will set the password for the unix user mysql, which is unrelated to the set of mysql users
[03:04] <DewDude> not for the mysql server itself
[03:04] <tanath> soundray: in console 1 i can see an error. i select the text, press ctrl+alt+f7 to come back here, and middle-click to paste, and nothing happens
[03:04] <beefsprocket> got it
[03:04] <soundray> tanath: you don't seriously expect that to work, do you?
[03:04] <soundray> tanath: tell us what the error is about instead.
[03:04] <tanath> soundray: it lets me paste from 1 to 2...
[03:04] <tanath> soundray: why not?
[03:05] <DewDude> ooh..one more thing..does anyone know if bogoMIPS was broken in recent PPC build of kernel? I'm getting a BogoMIPS rating of 49.97 for a 400mhz PPC G3
[03:05] <tanath> soundray: can't get fglrx working
[03:05] <soundray> tanath: because X and the text console do not share a clipboard
[03:05] <tanath> soundray: it'd be easier to just copy & paste
[03:05] <tanath> blah
[03:05] <soundray> tanath: that wouldn't be welcome here.
[03:05] <Igaaa> Renan_s2, don't you know how I could modify the "UseDGA" setting ? I need to do so, it sounds like it could allow me playing to warcraft3

[03:06] <painkiler> hey guys
[03:06] <painkiler> how do I get rid of compiz?
[03:06] <bl3ssing> how to install a archive in my computer without any or repository or adept?
[03:06] <painkiler> or even everything I installed to do it

[03:06] <Igaaa> Renan_s2, thanks, I'll try to find it
[03:06] <painkiler> it really messed up my system
[03:06] <longwave> painkiler: how did you install it? :)
[03:06] <painkiler> the guide on the forums
[03:06] <painkiler> http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=127090

[03:06] <tanath> fglrx says OpenGL renderer string: Mesa GLX Indirect
[03:07] <painkiler> It just craped up my themes and stuff
[03:07] <tanath> soundray: huh?
[03:07] <chrisbudden14> is there a way of changing the functionality of the show desktop button
[03:07] <painkiler> Can I just restore my machine to what it was this morining?
[03:07] <soundray> chrisbudden14: no, but you can replace it with another applet or launcher
[03:07] <tanath> soundray: you said long error messages shouldn't be pasted in here. 1 - i know that. 2 - i didn't paste a long error message. nothing wrong with 2 lines
[03:08] <beefsprocket> painkiler: reverse what you did this morning and it will be fine
[03:08] <increase_> how can I change the Ubuntu Logo on startup?
[03:08] <chrisbudden14> soundray, i would like it to use the compiz way of showing the desktop
[03:08] <tanath> *fglrxinfo says OpenGL renderer string: Mesa GLX Indirect
[03:08] <soundray> chrisbudden14: is there a command for that?
[03:08] <painkiler> how do I reverse it?
[03:08] <soundray> tanath: stop pasting error messages
[03:08] <tanath> i can't seem to get it using fglrx. can anyone help?
[03:09] <epidemik> how do you force quit?
[03:09] <epidemik> wine has frozen
[03:09] <beefsprocket> painkiler: check that thread oyu posted, work backwards
[03:09] <tanath> soundray: huh? i only pasted one
[03:09] <chrisbudden14> well its linked to a keybinding, so if i could get a script to send <super>d it would work
[03:09] <tanath> er, 2. sorry
[03:09] <soundray> tanath: that's the mistake
[03:09] <beefsprocket> painkiler: but do everything without rebooting and once it is back to the way it was, then reboot
[03:09] <epidemik> how do you force quit?
[03:09] <beefsprocket> painkiler: also make a backup of /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[03:09] <tanath> soundray: i did nothing wrong
[03:10] <bl3ssing> how can I get into the konsole as an admin cause I want to install a file

[03:10] <painkiler> hmmm
[03:10] <tailsfan> Ouestion, Will Ubuntu DVDs work with CD-RW Drives?
[03:10] <painkiler> also, grub can't find my windows partitoin
[03:10] <soundray> tanath: you didn't follow the very clear instructions in the /topic, nor the ones I gave you, not to paste in here.
[03:10] <tristanmike> !bl3ssing > sudo
[03:10] <tanath> soundray: pasting is harmless unless it floods
[03:10] <lumgwada> can anyone tell me if following this ... http://www.timhardy.net/wordpress/2006/07/01/patching-eclipse-32-for-debian-31/ ... is likely to work for ubuntu (breezy)?
[03:11] <painkiler> I set up a boot section manualy, and it can't find it
[03:11] <stian_> tailsfan: will a gas car run on disel?
[03:11] <painkiler> the hdd is on /dev/hda1
[03:11] <tristanmike> !tell bl3ssing about sudo
[03:11] <epidemik> how do you force quit? anyone?
[03:11] <painkiler> and I do (hd0,0)
[03:11] <tanath> soundray: 1 or 2 lines is perfectly reasonable
[03:11] <Caprisun> System Moniter
[03:11] <Caprisun> to force quit an application
[03:11] <beefsprocket> painkiler: you can use tab completion in grub, when you boot hit esc with grub, then open a command line, use root (hd0,(hit tab here)
[03:11] <tailsfan> no I guess
[03:12] <tanath> soundray: do you work for ubuntu?
[03:12] <soundray> tanath: if you think you should force your interpretations of rules onto every one else, then go ahead. If someone else doesn't mind, that's fine. But don't expect anything from me.
[03:12] <Caprisun> i have a question concerning permissions in ubuntu
[03:12] <painkiler> ok thanks
[03:12] <Caprisun> how can i allow myself to write to my startup drive without using sudo in the command line
[03:12] <tanath> soundray: rules are always open to interpretation
[03:12] <Caprisun> i can always use sudo but its annoying
[03:13] <tanath> soundray: technically interpretation is unavoidable
[03:13] <longwave> Caprisun: what are you trying to do? having to use sudo protects you from messing up the system
[03:13] <Caprisun> well longwave atm i cant write to anywhere in my startupdriv eexcept my home folder
[03:13] <longwave> well, that's the idea
[03:13] <soundray> tanath: this discussion is a) offtopic and b) over, as far as I am concerned
[03:13] <tanath> soundray: well, you're the only one who said anything about it. i didn't flood. no harm came of it. it's necessary to explain my problem.
[03:13] <longwave> you shouldn't need to write outside your home folder really
[03:13] <Caprisun> well
[03:13] <Caprisun> when i do proftpd.conf
[03:13] <Caprisun> i wanna be able to just drag it
[03:14] <Caprisun> im not really a nub or anything
[03:14] <tanath> soundray: do you work for ubuntu?
[03:14] <Caprisun> i just wanna make it a little more convenient
[03:14] <ardchoille> Caprisun: If I broke into you user account, I couldn't write to anything except your home folder either.. which means I could do rm -rf /usr
[03:14] <beefsprocket> Caprisun: how about using the nautilus root scripts?
[03:14] <hbi> does any1 know how to configure kismet in ubuntu
[03:14] <mnguyen> My UBUNTU installer freezes while trying to partition my system. I'm running a ECS NFORCE3 motherboard with a 160GB SATA hard drive. Is there any known fix for this?
[03:14] <beefsprocket> hbi: which wireless card?
[03:14] <crimsun> mnguyen: are you using the live cd's graphical installer?
[03:14] <hbi> senao 2511 CD
[03:14] <mupet_poo> what was the other common ubuntu room?
[03:14] <hbi> ext
[03:14] <ardchoille> *couldn't
[03:14] <mupet_poo> channel*
[03:15] <mnguyen> crimsun: yes
[03:15] <Caprisun> heh
[03:15] <crimsun> mnguyen: have you tried the alternate (text-based) installer?
[03:15] <beefsprocket> hbi: edit /etc/kismet/kismet.conf
[03:15] <Caprisun> well i guess you make a good point about security
[03:15] <Caprisun> ill stick to using sudo
[03:15] <Caprisun> thanks
[03:15] <beefsprocket> hbi: where is says source=, put in orinoco,eth1(or wlan0 or whichever the intereface is),orinoco
[03:15] <longwave> Caprisun: you can always "sudo chmod o+w /file/name" if you want anyone to be able to write to it
[03:15] <mnguyen> crimsun: no ill give that a shot
[03:15] <ardchoille> Caprisun: It may be annoying, but it is a good security practice, IMHO :)
[03:15] <Jentsu> okay, so I had some problems installing ubuntu the first time. I was told that I should try redownloading, burning, and running it all from a new CD. I redownloaded, from another server just to make sure, and burning it again, and then I loaded it. I ran the thing to check the CD for errors and found none. I tried running it normally, but it said that X was not configured right and asked something about launching to diagnose. Instead of chec
[03:15] <Jentsu> king that, i tried restarting, and just on a hunch, checked the CD again, and this time it found a problem with "./caspar/(don'tremember).squashfs". It will not run normally, but runs just fine on safe mode. I'm actually using safe mode now.
[03:15] <longwave> but really, that's a bad idea - stick to sudo where you can
[03:15] <Caprisun> ahh
[03:15] <Caprisun> thanks
[03:15] <beefsprocket> hbi: if that doesn';t work try orinoco_cs
[03:15] <Caprisun> i will
[03:15] <Renan_s2> Anybody here knows how to open a .BIN CD image in Linux?
[03:16] <Caprisun> its not really that big an isue

[03:16] <bytefu> does anyone know how I can create a sub-subdomain within a dns zone file? like projectname.beta.domainname.com?
[03:16] <Caprisun> sudo apt-get install build-essential
[03:16] <beefsprocket> gezim: build-essential is what you want
[03:16] <Caprisun> that will install what you need
[03:16] <longwave> bytefu: you don't have to do anything special, just put the name in, i think
[03:16] <Caprisun> heh
[03:16] <mnguyen> caprisun: do i have to download a seperate CD for the text-based installer?
[03:16] <Caprisun> there is such a CD
[03:16] <K^Holtz> how do i find my local ip using ubuntu?
[03:16] <Caprisun> i forgot what its called though
[03:17] <soundray> K^Holtz: with ifconfig
[03:17] <bytefu> longwave, do i have to specify the first subdomain? the beta part? so like beta IN A <ipaddr> and then make another entry for the projectname.beta?
[03:17] <longwave> tengil: is the correct keyboard selected in system > preferences > keyboard?
[03:17] <ardchoille> mnguyen: Fro what I hear, the Desktop CD installer has some issues and those who are in the know say to use the Alternate CD, it has a text-based instller
[03:17] <Caprisun> anyone have thier shutdown buttons dissapear?
[03:17] <Caprisun> go into login window
[03:17] <K^Holtz> soundray: thanks
[03:17] <Caprisun> and check where it says show actions
[03:17] <Caprisun> that will fix it
[03:17] <longwave> bytefu: no, i dont think so, though it's a while since i've done that sort of configuration
[03:17] <Caprisun> my friend just reinstalled thinking that he messed up the OS
[03:17] <hbi> beefsprocket, i cant find where i need to edit in kismet.conf
[03:17] <Caprisun> and then i realized i had the same problem
[03:18] <Caprisun> that will fix it
[03:18] <ScreaminIke> can i get some help with the ati radeon mobility 9000 driver? i can't set it any higher than 1024x768, but the default in other os's is 1400x1080
[03:18] <ardchoille> Caprisun: I have been trying to get rid of the Shurdown and Reboot buttons, thanks
[03:18] <longwave> bytefu: just do the projectname.beta IN A <IP_ADDRESS> or whatever
[03:18] <Caprisun> no problem
[03:18] <K^Holtz> Anyone have any idea why an Azurous tooltip would just get stuck in the bottom right corner of my screen? the Hide button will not work
[03:18] <Caprisun> did it work?
[03:18] <Caprisun> i LOST them
[03:18] <Caprisun> and thats how i got it back
[03:18] <ardchoille> checking
[03:18] <soundray> ScreaminIke: there are wiki instructions -- watch out for ubotu:
[03:18] <soundray> !tell ScreaminIke about fixres
[03:18] <tritium> !enter > Caprisun
[03:18] <beefsprocket> hbi: search for source in the file
[03:19] <ardchoille> Caprisun: Yes, it worked, but I think that will also hide the "options" menu on the gdm screen
[03:19] <Caprisun> bye guys , thanks for the help
[03:19] <ardchoille> Which is a good thing too for me at least
[03:19] <Jentsu> okay, so I had some problems installing ubuntu the first time. I was told that I should try redownloading, burning, and running it all from a new CD.

[03:35] <fit4lfe> how do I put that in my path
[03:35] <longwave> IcemanV9: X needs access to your video hardware so it runs as root
[03:35] <tanath> tengil: but now you may be able to do it
[03:36] <Jentsu> Every time I try burning a ubuntu cd, it will start off reading okay, but won't run normally, and after I try running it, it will read one or two errors. Can anyone try helping with that part at least?

[03:37] <tristanmike> fit4lfe: do you have the mulitverse/universe ?
[03:37] <fusionxn1> Synaptic Package manager isn't doing anything :(
[03:37] <tristanmike> fit4lfe: I'm on dapper and I have unrar
[03:37] <longwave> jpatota: are they separate drives or just partitions on one drive?
[03:37] <tristanmike> !info unrar
[03:37] <ubotu> unrar: Unarchiver for .rar files (non-free version). In repository multiverse, is optional. Version 1:3.5.4-0.1 (dapper), package size 84 kB, installed size 216 kB
[03:37] <fusionxn1> CLicking X don't close it

[03:38] <longwave> then the number is the partition number
[03:38] <fusionxn1> I went to adobe.com and downloaded it - double click it and then doublle click flash_installer and click run in termanal
[03:38] <fit4lfe> Package unrar is not available, but is referred to by another package.
[03:38] <tristanmike> !multiverse > fit4lfe
[03:38] <longwave> the partition number is probably 1 if there is only one partition on each drive, but you can check with fdisk
[03:38] <jpatota> longwave: huh i never knew that
[03:38] <jpatota> longwave: ty
[03:38] <fusionxn1> Need to extract it first

[03:43] <mnguyen> For some reason my UBUNTU installation is crashing if i do a custom partitioning scheme... if i use the automatic scheme.. and i want to resize partitions and create new ones later on... would that be possible?
[03:43] <longwave> }btorch{: yes, definitely, the bios is just a small program that runs on the cpu
[03:43] <}btorch{> ok
[03:44] <Jentsu> fusionxnl: Can I start what? I'm running in safe mode right now, if that's what you mean. The normal mode doesn't work because it says there's something wrong with X. Checking the CD before I tried running it found no errors; afterwards it found one.
[03:44] <}btorch{> well hold on the bios is not on the cpu
[03:44] <Jentsu> tristanmike: I don't think I am...
[03:44] <longwave> no, the bios is on the motherboard
[03:44] <longwave> but it needs the cpu to run the bios program

[03:57] <m3talc0re> i installed the codecs and the other crap from your !playdvd crap or whatever
[03:57] <tristanmike> fusionxn1: do an "ls" in your current directory and see if the file is actually there
[03:57] <m3talc0re> my dvd playing functions still don't work
[03:57] <increase_> m3talc0re: :)
[03:57] <m3talc0re> gxine just keeps crashing and Totem says i don't have the codecs
[03:57] <fusionxn1> tristamike - no it anit there
[03:57] <Jentsu> I downloaded it, burned it to a cd, booted up in it, checked it for errors (found none), tried the default option...doesn't work. something's wrong with X. Next time I tried checking it for errors, it found one.

[03:58] <fusionxn1> tristamike its currently on desktop
[03:58] <inheart> hi ,everyone
[03:58] <tristanmike> fusionxn1: "cd ~/Desktop" then run the command
[03:59] <longwave> Jentsu: that sounds a bit weird, try running the memtest option from the CD just in case your RAM is bad
[03:59] <fusionxn1> tristamike its not on the desktop
[03:59] <fusionxn1> i dont know where it went to
[03:59] <tristanmike> fusionxn1: locate w32codecs

[04:00] <aun> increase_:deb http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu dapper main restricted universe multiverse
[04:00] <fusionxn1> tristamike: it went onto a new line and i ran the command still not working
[04:00] <Jentsu> longwave: okay, but when i've tried running memtest after a (later found) bad install, it would never cease, but find nothing wrong... Also, how long -should- running memtest from the CD take?
[04:00] <prophet> what was that player called xine?
[04:01] <tristanmike> fusionxn1: ok, lets do this from the start, in a terminal "cd ~/"
[04:01] <m3talc0re> xine or gxine?
[04:01] <longwave> memtest will run forever, but you should wait until it finishes 1 pass of all the tests
[04:01] <fusionxn1> tristamike i found the problem
[04:01] <fusionxn1> its downloading index.html for osme reason
[04:01] <fusionxn1> some*
[04:01] <m3talc0re> i'm trying to use Totem and/or GXine to play DVD's and neither is working
[04:01] <increase_> aun: cheers!

[04:01] <archangel_> whichever is easier
[04:02] <tristanmike> fusionxn1: ok, it doesn't seem to be there...one sec....
[04:02] <fusionxn1> K mate
[04:02] <Jentsu> longwave: ...so how do you get past the memtest if it's installed? that's my whole reason for figuring the first cd was bad...
[04:02] <tristanmike> fusionxn1: http://www.debian-multimedia.org/pool/main/w/w32codecs/w32codecs_20060611-0.0_i386.deb
[04:02] <longwave> stk_: does it really stop, or does it continue if you leave it (you may need to wait a few minutes)
[04:02] <fusionxn1> k thanks
[04:02] <aun> archangel_:http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Dapper scroll down the solturion is here
[04:03] <stk_> longwave, I rebooted about 10 minutes ago and it is still on configuring network interface
[04:03] <fuoco> do drivers/kernel features get backported to dapper?

[04:03] <m3talc0re> PLEASE
[04:03] <ardchoille> stk_: Are you using a different kernel than before?  Can you take your complaints somewhere else please?
[04:06] <m3talc0re> most people here are probably dual booting
[04:06] <Madpilot> increase_, no
[04:07] <Omega11> no
[04:07] <m3talc0re> so you're "points" are worthless
[04:07] <Madpilot> Omega11, go hang out in #windows if you like it so much
[04:07] <increase_> Madpilot: ok! well it looks great! makes things easy for beginner as myself
[04:07] <mbleigh> i just got a macbook pro and a small form factor pc that i want to run as a server personally
[04:07] <increase_> Madpilot: how do you know easyubuntu is safe?
[04:07] <tristanmike> touche Jentsu, you got me there
[04:07] <m3talc0re> tritium, you still here?
[04:07] <aun> m3talcOre: what media player are you using?
[04:08] <m3talc0re> i've tried both gxine and totem
[04:08] <tristanmike> fusionxn1: because drm is about locking you down and linux is about setting you free, but this is off topic and I've said them in the same sentence again, so that's enough about it from me in here :P
[04:08] <Madpilot> increase_, because it's opensource, and the developers are very involved in the Ubuntu community
[04:08] <ardchoille> m3talc0re: Did you read the Restricted Formats page?
[04:08] <Jentsu> So, how do I get past the memtest after linux was installed?
[04:08] <m3talc0re> https://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/desktopguide/C/video.html
[04:08] <m3talc0re> i read and did that
[04:08] <fusionxn1> tristamike - i agree but i got some DRM albums :(
[04:08] <m3talc0re> so i should be dvd capable
[04:09] <Madpilot> m3talc0re, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats too
[04:09] <m3talc0re> gimme a second to read it
[04:09] <ardchoille> Madpilot: Thank you, I was looking for that one
[04:09] <ardchoille> m3talc0re: That one helped me get DVD's working in gxine
[04:10] <m3talc0re> yes, read
[04:10] <m3talc0re> pointless read
[04:10] <verbose> is there a better way to see how many files are in a dir tree than find /path |wc -l ?
[04:10] <moneyfirst> just use automatix, it install all the codecs :>
[04:10] <increase_> can I use easyubuntu direct from a new Dapper install? or do I first need to add anything to the Dapper sources.list?
[04:10] <m3talc0re> i installed the codecs and crap to enable dvd playback of encrypted dvds
[04:10] <Madpilot> m3talc0re, read RestrictedFormats again, it does answer most of the questions you seem to have...
[04:11] <increase_> Madpilot: ok!  its just that Seveas didnt approve of it
[04:11] <Seveas> didn't approve what?
[04:11] <ardchoille> m3talc0re: Did you do the part about the /usr/share/doc/libdvdread3/examples/install-css.sh script?
[04:11] <Madpilot> increase_, try #easyubuntu
[04:11] <increase_> m3talc0re: tried easyubuntu?
[04:11] <Seveas> moneyfirst, automatix breaks your system -- using it is BOT recommended
[04:11] <Jentsu> What happens when the memtest, as run after installing ubuntu, which apparently has to be done when booting before getting to ubuntu, is done? Or does it, too, just keep going? If so, how do I go past it?
[04:11] <aun> m3talcOre: http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Dapper read the part for the dvd codecs in gstreamer
[04:11] <increase_> Madpilot: ty
[04:12] <fusionxn1> automatrix breaks your system?
[04:12] <Madpilot> aun, please don't recommend ubuntuguide...
[04:12] <Madpilot> fusionxn1, it can & has
[04:12] <longwave> Jentsu: you don't have to run the memtest - just pick the install option instead
[04:12] <fusionxn1> hasnt on mine
[04:12] <Seveas> maddler, ubuntuguide.org has changed hands and improved
[04:12] <Seveas> Madpilot*
[04:12] <fusionxn1> DAM this storm is kicking in now
[04:12] <longwave> the memtest is just there as a useful tool that you may want to run before installing
[04:12] <Madpilot> Seveas, has it? Cool.
[04:12] <m3talc0re> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats#dvd
[04:12] <moneyfirst> Seveas, really? oh I don't know. Could you give the article or links about that? thx
[04:12] <aun> Madpilot: sorry, i just found it helpful when I started
[04:12] <increase_> fusionxn1: hurricane?
[04:13] <Seveas> moneyfirst, read the logs of this channel -- too many people come in here with systems broken by autobreakix
[04:13] <fusionxn1> nah, its england :p
[04:13] <increase_> fusionxn1: hehe
[04:13] <Jentsu> longwave: ...I'm feeling pretty stupid now. So this whole time I thought there was something wrong, and I was just missing one of the options? Note that I don't mean booting from the CD, I mean on my harddrive after doing the install thing.
[04:13] <Senesence> Can rhythmbox play .pls streaming internet radio?
[04:13] <longwave> fusionxn1: that's what i thought, but then it passed pretty quick
[04:14] <Seveas> Senesence, yes
[04:14] <fusionxn1> How do i use the termanal to goto the cdrom
[04:14] <fusionxn1> longwave - its been going on for over an hour now lol
[04:14] <longwave> Jentsu: after the install, when you boot from the hd, you should have a couple of Linux kernel choices and the memtest at the bottom
[04:14] <Seveas> fusionxn1, cd /media/cdrom
[04:14] <moneyfirst> Seveas, I think about that too, because some of its sources are not from repository. But so far my computer run just fine with that.   What could be the problem?
[04:16] <ttyfscker> m3talc0re:: it wasnt an easy job either
[04:16] <m3talc0re> lol
[04:16] <ttyfscker> this ubuntu install is so messed up now it aint even funny
[04:16] <m3talc0re> what'd you do?
[04:16] <ttyfscker> ubuntu might be easy for n00bs but when you gotta build stuff it aint fun at all
[04:16] <lastent> I'm having problems with my hard drive, is there any program like SCANDISK?
[04:16] <ttyfscker> i had to recompile <IP_ADDRESS> kernel to get vmware modules to load
[04:16] <longwave> lastent: what sort of problems?
[04:16] <ttyfscker> then i had to rebuild the iw2200 driver for my wifi card
[04:17] <fusionxn1> dam
[04:17] <ttyfscker> and had to install the firmware
[04:17] <fusionxn1> Wine says the setup.exe is a bad exe format :(
[04:17] <ttyfscker> took me at least 2 hours ..arghhh
[04:17] <lastent> longware, like there are some damage blocks
[04:17] <m3talc0re> installing new drivers and crap on here is excessively complicated...
[04:17] <ttyfscker> m3talc0re:: it normally shouldnt be this hectic.
[04:18] <verbose> yeah, that's intel's fault, not ubuntu's
[04:18] <m3talc0re> and video card drivers?
[04:18] <longwave> lastent: there is a "badblocks" command that checks the entire disk, you should read the manpage first though ("man badblocks")
[04:18] <fit4lfe> yeah I got all the repos now so pysched
[04:18] <increase_> Madpilot: well those small group of ppl are vry clever to write easyubuntu!
[04:18] <ttyfscker> but of course i just aint happy with my ctcp version replies saying 2.6.15 when using dapper.. and on 2.6.17 that edgy uses the vmmon module wont load. so i just built the  kernel from scratch
[04:18] <fit4lfe> plf is so cool
[04:18] <lastent> longware thanks
[04:19] <anomalie> hello, can anyone help me with grub 1.5?
[04:19] <ttyfscker> anomalie:: most likely

[04:23] <anomalie> ok
[04:23] <m3talc0re> my ex moved in with some retard
[04:23] <increase_> Madpilot: no! i mean the first Ubuntu logo as Ubuntu loads
[04:23] <Toma-> michaelbleigh: gcc-4.0
[04:23] <Kyral> michaelbleigh: echo ${CC} :P
[04:23] <longwave> anomalie: grub error 12 seems to mean that (hd0,4) is not a valid partition
[04:23] <m3talc0re> she's only known this idiot for not even 3 months
[04:24] <m3talc0re> and they're talking about getting married
[04:24] <Madpilot> increase_, the one with the brown scrolling text below it?
[04:24] <increase_> whozatmac: the first Ubuntu logo as Ubuntu loads, before the login logo
[04:24] <Kyral> m3talc0re: this is incredibly offtopic :P
[04:24] <ttyfscker> haha
[04:24] <Madpilot> m3talc0re, #ubuntu-offtopic for chat, please
[04:24] <m3talc0re> they fight at least twice a week and the tard can't even hold a job
[04:24] <ttyfscker> no on-topic conversations are taken place
[04:24] <whozatmac> increase_ I *think* the image file is called by grub
[04:24] <ttyfscker> gotta keep the chan from being dead some how
[04:24] <Senesence> Can someone help me out with my rythmbox problems?
[04:24] <Kyral> cat m3talc0re > /dev/offtopic
[04:24] <increase_> Madpilot: yes!  i changed it in breezy, but forget the webpage that had the steps
[04:24] <whozatmac> increase_: happy hacking :)
[04:25] <Madpilot> increase_, I'm not sure, to be honest.
[04:25] <m3talc0re> i'm jumpin' on xp
[04:25] <Kyral> There is a difference between offtopic convos and ranting because you got your ass dumped for some loser :P
[04:25] <m3talc0re> not that simple kyral
[04:25] <Kyral> Thats what I inferred from his rant
[04:25] <david_> does anyone know how vnc works?
[04:25] <anomalie> tty u cant arrive querys?!
[04:25] <ttyfscker> ubuntu is a family like community.. we're here for support of ubuntu users
[04:25] <ttyfscker> anomalie:: register your nick with nickserv
[04:26] <Jentsu> on the upside, i'm not incurably stupid.
[04:26] <david_> I want to be able to fix my moms computer from my house
[04:26] <Senesence> How do I get rythmbox to play .pls streaming radio?
[04:26] <anomalie> uiui
[04:26] <Kyral> ttyfscker: Yah but I'm in a good mood for once and I don't want some rant about someone ngetting dumped to kill it
[04:26] <Jentsu> on the downside, there really does seem to be a problem with it, as there is indeed only one linux option.
[04:26] <whozatmac> increase_ specifically, the graphic is installed by the usplash package, so get the usplash source deb and poke around in there for images
[04:26] <Jentsu> "ubuntu, memtest86+"
[04:26] <Kyral> because more than likely it will remind me of my own failures :P
[04:26] <verbose> david_: what specifically is your question
[04:26] <lastent> longware i have a little problem, the disk i want to check is mi main disk
[04:26] <increase_> does anyone here know the webpage that states the steps needed to change the dapper ubuntu logon graphic  with the brown scrolling text below it? i did it on breezy, but forget the URL
[04:27] <darth_gimp> ..
[04:27] <david_> how do i control a computer over the internet?
[04:27] <Toma-> whats that app for converting avis to dvd? vid something...
[04:27] <increase_> whozatmac: theres a URL which has 4 commands to change it!
[04:27] <Toma-> david_: VNC
[04:27] <david_> i don't know how to find the address
[04:27] <increase_> whozatmac: I cant remember the URL
[04:27] <ttyfscker> Kyral:: i have had some big failures too.. the bad part is i'd rather hear about relationship failures, than hear about kernel failure
[04:27] <ttyfscker> haha
[04:27] <Toma-> david_: you cant simply control a computer with the adress (altho in XP you can)
[04:28] <Kyral> I can fix kernel problems
[04:28] <ttyfscker> i can too
[04:28] <Kyral> I can't fix relationship problems :P
[04:28] <david_> my moom runs xp
[04:28] <nomasteryoda|w> ewwwwwwww
[04:28] <nomasteryoda|w> =D
[04:28] <Toma-> david_: then you want an RPC app for linux?
[04:28] <nomasteryoda|w> jk
[04:28] <Jentsu> does anyone know why it didn't add the option to just finish installing ubuntu, or should I just try running a different distro, since this one doesn't seem to work for me?
[04:28] <Kyral> On XP finding the IP is easy
[04:28] <nomasteryoda|w> already in Ubuntu
[04:28] <nomasteryoda|w> under Places
[04:28] <ttyfscker> but its funny to hear relationship problems.. kernel problems require work and research.. you can bullshit your way to being a relationship counselor haha
[04:28] <whozatmac> david_ does your mom run windows or linux?
[04:28] <Senesence> Can anyone help me out?
[04:28] <Kyral> Open the command line (Yes it exists), and run "ipconfig"
[04:29] <whozatmac> or beos or os/2 or System 6.0?
[04:29] <david_> I can run my kids desktop from my computer but itsxp
[04:29] <michaelbleigh> i don't seem to have gcc on my ubuntu install...
[04:29] <nomasteryoda|w> whozatmac, you on dialup?
[04:29] <johnny> does anyone else have problems installing dapper?
[04:29] <michaelbleigh> this is troubling
[04:29] <michaelbleigh> echo ${CC}
[04:29] <david_> windows xp
[04:29] <michaelbleigh> does nothing
[04:29] <Toma-> Senesence: isnt .pls a playlist?
[04:29] <Kyral> michaelbleigh: it isn't installed by default
[04:29] <johnny> when i install the installation works fine but when i boot up it just sits there saying "uncompressing the kernel"
[04:29] <Kyral> !compile
[04:29] <johnny> and it doesnt do anything
[04:29] <ubotu> Compiling software from source? Read the tips at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/CompilingSoftware (But remember to search for pre-built !packages first: not all !repositories are enabled by default!)
[04:29] <whozatmac> nomasteryoda|w no

[04:29] <Toma-> michaelbleigh: errr run "sudo apt-get install build-essential"
[04:30] <michaelbleigh> Toma: the problem with that is that my nic card wasn't detected
[04:30] <whozatmac> wifi though, it's like dialup that goes really fast
[04:30] <johnny> does anyone know what the problem might be
[04:30] <Toma-> michaelbleigh: doh!
[04:30] <Senesence> Toma-, Well .pls should link to a radio stream, right?
[04:30] <johnny> i'm trying to install dapper on a dell latitude d500
[04:30] <Toma-> Senesence: itll give you a aplylist of radio streams...

[04:31] <johnny> i installed it last week and it worked fine but i didnt put enough swap
[04:31] <johnny> now it wont install
[04:31] <Toma-> johnny: its one of the options you get then the install cd first boots up
[04:31] <fusionxn1> how do i search with
[04:31] <fusionxn1> I cant find it
[04:32] <nomasteryoda|w> fusionxn1, if you just installed, then the menus might not be updated
[04:32] <nomasteryoda|w> try sudo find . -iname azureus\*
[04:32] <Toma-> michaelbleigh: you have a working internet connection right? can you put packages onto the ubuntu machine somehow?
[04:32] <ardchoille> fusionxn1: Have you tried looking in /usr/lib/azureus ?
[04:32] <johnny> f1 Toma- ?
[04:32] <fusionxn1> They are there, just that I'm tring to tell firefox to load .torrent with it
[04:32] <dooglus> fusionxn1: how do you run azureus?
[04:32] <nomasteryoda|w> fusionxn1, that command i just gave will do it
[04:32] <nomasteryoda|w> for finding it
[04:32] <Toma-> johnny: um. theres a list of things you can do when the CD boots up, check it out
[04:33] <Toma-> otherwsie, check the md5sum in windows
[04:33] <Toma-> !md5sum
[04:33] <ubotu> I know nothing about md5sum - try searching http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi?db=ubuntu
[04:33] <fusionxn1> ardchoille.. not there
[04:33] <michaelbleigh> if i knew how to put packages on there, i definitely would
[04:33] <Toma-> damn you bot
[04:33] <michaelbleigh> any hints on how to do that?
[04:33] <Toma-> !install
[04:33] <fusionxn1> dooglus i used automatrix

[04:34] <johnny> it says check virtual console 4
[04:34] <johnny> but i dont know how
[04:34] <ardchoille> johnny: md5sum - compute and check MD5 message digest
[04:34] <johnny> or what that is
[04:34] <nomasteryoda|w> aliendream23, sure we can solve it
[04:34] <aliendream23> it is a wmp54g

[04:35] <michaelbleigh> is there a way to install apt packages without an internet connection (on the machine that needs them)
[04:35] <johnny> what about it?
[04:35] <nomasteryoda|w> aliendream23, ok so you need the bcm firmware
[04:35] <fusionxn1> its in  OPT/AZUREUS
[04:35] <nomasteryoda|w> johnny, that is how to switch to another terminal
[04:35] <Toma-> michaelbleigh: as in deb packages?

[04:39] <dooglus> nomasteryoda|w: yes
[04:39] <nubster> how do i do that?

[04:44] <Raul654> I have two very simle questions - what are the commands to print the currently configured DNS servers
[04:44] <chol> nubster, sounds like you might need to aptitude update

[04:44] <F1re4fect> having a problem with openssl, its looking for 0.9.7 but 0.9.8 is installed
[04:44] <tamale> Hello everyone!  I've decided it was a big mistake choosing FAT32 for my media partition rather than ext3 'cause of the file size limits!  And there's a good ext3 driver for windows anyway.. Sooo..  I'm wondering how I can reformat my fat32 partition to ext3.. could someone help?
[04:44] <aliendream23> what do I ned???
[04:44] <inrelief> hey all, i've noticed that ubuntu utilizes several 'redendant' services.  For cronjobs there's anacron, atd, and cron.  For syslogging there's klogd and sysklogd.  Does ubuntu require all of these services, or are we expected to prune them down per our choice?
[04:44] <aliendream23> need even...
[04:44] <nomasteryoda|w> aliendream23, looking for  what i found worked best
[04:44] <inrelief> and i meant 'redundant'
[04:44] <Inazad> Someone have aireplay 2.2 ?
[04:44] <aliendream23> k
[04:44] <nomasteryoda|w> i have one of those cards here
[04:44] <tamale> Raul654:   cat /etc/resolve.conf
[04:45] <dooglus> inrelief: anacron, at and cron all do different things.  you should keep them all (except maybe at)
[04:45] <Inazad> Someone have aireplay 2.2 or to know how to use aireplay ?
[04:45] <Toma-> michaelbleigh: go here and get ALL the packages with the red dots, (and obviously the gcc package) and also the green ones. http://packages.ubuntu.com/dapper/devel/gcc-4.0
[04:45] <aliendream23> sorry for being so knuckleheaded about this but I have been loking for a solution for about 8 hours
[04:45] <SuperMiguel> what is airplay used for
[04:45] <Raul654> tamale - is /etc/resolve.conf generated at boot time?
[04:45] <aliendream23> this is my first linux install
[04:45] <nomasteryoda|w> man sorry to hear that
[04:45] <Raul654> tamale - or is it user-configured?
[04:45] <nomasteryoda|w> but proprietary drivers do suck
[04:45] <nomasteryoda|w> blame the mfg
[04:45] <Inazad> SuperMiguel, to increase the traffic between 2 cpu..
[04:45] <nomasteryoda|w> but new linux kernel will fix that
[04:45] <tamale> Raul654:  well, I believe it's set when DHCP happens
[04:46] <nomasteryoda|w> at least for bcm
[04:46] <chol> !repos > nubster
[04:46] <inrelief> dooglus, don't anacron and cron both just execute actions when scheduled?
[04:46] <Raul654> tamale - that's the point, I am trying to configure it statically
[04:46] <aliendream23> when is that due?
[04:46] <hlabs> help needed in setting up webcam. Plz help m
[04:46] <nubster> chol, whats that mean?
[04:46] <hlabs> me
[04:46] <dooglus> inrelief: anacron runs stuff which was schedules to happen when the PC was switched off
[04:46] <Raul654> I am trying to create a crontab to statically set the IP, netmask, gateway, and DNS
[04:46] <nomasteryoda|w> i'm sure the next release... edgy will have it
[04:46] <fusionxn1> Ubuntu is the best linux os I have come across (also Kubuntu )
[04:46] <Raul654> the first three aren't too hard
[04:46] <tamale> Raul654:  The network config tool should be able to have those values set manually
[04:47] <fusionxn1> Can you use KDE apps with Ubuntu?
[04:47] <nomasteryoda|w> but you can get it going now
[04:47] <nomasteryoda|w> fusionxn1, yes
[04:47] <Raul654> tamale - network config tool?
[04:47] <fusionxn1> Cool thanks
[04:47] <chol> nubster, read the pm, you might need to add a few more sources to get gcc although it sounds weird, it should be in universe
[04:47] <tamale>  I'm wondering how I can reformat my fat32 partition to ext3.. could someone help?
[04:47] <inrelief> dooglus, i used anacron and only anacron on gentoo as my cronjob manager
[04:47] <nomasteryoda|w> fusionxn1, like apt-get install kde-edu
[04:47] <fusionxn1> Is there any WMV codecs for VLC
[04:47] <tamale> system - administration - networking
[04:47] <dooglus> inrelief: I don't think anacron can run jobs hourly
[04:47] <nomasteryoda|w> ya
[04:47] <Raul654> tamale - what about from the command line?
[04:47] <Seveas> !info  kino edgy
[04:48] <ubotu> kino: Non-linear editor for Digital Video data. In repository main, is extra. Version 0.90-1ubuntu2 (edgy), package size 1093 kB, installed size 3860 kB
[04:48] <tamale> then configure
[04:48] <nomasteryoda|w> !codecs > fusionxn1
[04:48] <fusionxn1> !codecs
[04:48] <inrelief> "Anacron can be used to execute commands preiodically, with a frequency specified in days.  Unlike cron, it does not assume that the machine is running continuously"
[04:48] <s_spiff{AWAY}> is there a flv player for ubuntu?
[04:48] <ubotu> For multimedia issues, this page has useful information: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats  -  See also http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/desktopguide/C/common-tasks-chap.html  -  But please use free formats if you can: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FreeFormats
[04:48] <inrelief> dooglus, ah
[04:48] <s_spiff{AWAY}> flv!
[04:48] <fusionxn1> I got the WMV codecs
[04:48] <Raul654> tamale - what's the name of the problem?
[04:48] <tamale> raul654:  i'm not sure  about the command line
[04:48] <fusionxn1> but VLC plays as audio only
[04:48] <dooglus> inrelief: also, anacron isn't a daemon.  it is run by cron
[04:48] <nomasteryoda|w> what about xine?
[04:48] <fluvvell> I just upgraded to dapper, my 3rd machine and most important one - no real problems except for snapscan / xsane.  xsane doesn't find my acer 3300/4400 scanner.  Its there on the bus but not being noticed by xsane.
[04:49] <fusionxn1> i dont tihnk i got that one
[04:49] <dooglus> inrelief: (and also when you boot, change runlevels, etc)
[04:49] <nomasteryoda|w> aliendream23, install the bcm43xx-fwcutter package
[04:49] <fusionxn1> Nope...
[04:49] <aliendream23> where do i find that?
[04:49] <nomasteryoda|w> as in download it
[04:49] <chol> nubster, put ur /etc/apt/sources.list in pastebin, perhaps I can spot an error if there is one
[04:49] <nubster> thanks chol
[04:49] <nomasteryoda|w> just sec
[04:49] <Steve_973> hello.  anybody know where the e100 driver is in the kernel, please?
[04:50] <s_spiff{AWAY}> guys anyone knows a flv player for ubuntu>?
[04:50] <nomasteryoda|w> aliendream23, it is in the Universe repositories
[04:50] <nubster> chol, will do. what do u want me to name it so it stands out?
[04:50] <chol> Steve_973, device drivers, network devices, 10 and 100 mbit of the top of my head
[04:50] <inrelief> dooglus, you sure anacron is run by cron?  i was under the impression they're two separate processes
[04:50] <Steve_973> chol, i didn't see it.
[04:50] <Steve_973> chol, any idea under which specific category?
[04:50] <aliendream23> I am having problems finding it
[04:51] <chol> nubster, just paste it somewhere and give me url, you can choose any name
[04:51] <aliendream23> I believe I have the universe enabled...
[04:51] <chol> Steve_973, i'll have a look for you, hold
[04:51] <nomasteryoda|w> ok
[04:51] <Steve_973> thanks!
[04:51] <Inazad> Someone know how to use aireplay ?
[04:51] <nomasteryoda|w> if you follow the server path... http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/
[04:52] <nomasteryoda|w> !fwcutter
[04:52] <ubotu> I know nothing about fwcutter - try searching http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi?db=ubuntu
[04:52] <nomasteryoda|w> !broadcom
[04:52] <ubotu> Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs
[04:52] <nomasteryoda|w> ah, there you go
[04:52] <weex> dapper drake is quite awesome, but....I'm going to want to watch avi's with divx encoding, what's the best player for that?
[04:52] <chol> Steve_973, device drivers, network device support, ethernet (10 or 100mbit), enable other ISA cards and there it is
[04:52] <nubster> chol, http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/18983
[04:53] <chol> Steve_973, although that looks fishy, i'll check again
[04:53] <chol> nubster, ok
[04:53] <aliendream23> confused, I looked all thru there
[04:53] <aliendream23> earlier
[04:53] <aliendream23> couldn't find what I was looking for
[04:53] <nomasteryoda|w> ok, give me a second
[04:54] <chol> Steve_973, yeah, other ISA cards and then EISA, VLB, PCI... and there you have it
[04:54] <F1re4fect> Anyone using Nessus 3 on Dapper?
[04:54] <Steve_973> ok lemme go check
[04:54] <Steve_973> thanks
[04:54] <chol> nubster, you installed w/o internet connection?
[04:54] <chol> nubster, you need to remove the # from atleast line 2, 4, 9 and 11
[04:55] <anomalie> bye
[04:55] <nubster> chol, yeah...i have cable it's always connected
[04:56] <chol> nubster, # Line commented out by installer because it failed to verify: makes me think that something failed during install, such as the internet connection not being there, non functional dns
[04:56] <aliendream23> how do I know for certain weather or not I have the universe enabled correctly?
[04:56] <nomasteryoda|w> aliendream23,  http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/universe/b/bcm43xx-fwcutter/
[04:56] <nomasteryoda|w> try looking there
[04:56] <nomasteryoda|w> it will throw an error if it is not right
[04:56] <nomasteryoda|w> when you run apt-get update
[04:56] <chol> nubster, but remove the hash and do a sudo aptitude update and upgrade, when that's complete you can go ahead and install build-essential
[04:57] <aliendream23> how do I know which one?
[04:57] <jesspher> hi
[04:58] <jesspher> can anybody here help me with installing a game with wine
[04:58] <{alejandro}> does it use directx
[04:58] <nomasteryoda|w> aliendream23, i'm guessing you have an Intel based processor
[04:58] <fusionxn1> kesspher which game
[04:58] <nomasteryoda|w> http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/universe/b/bcm43xx-fwcutter/bcm43xx-fwcutter_20060108-6build1_i386.deb

[04:59] <jesspher> do u know the web adress
[04:59] <aliendream23> cool, i got that one already just before you posted, I feel as if I am making a bit of progress:)
[04:59] <nomasteryoda|w> michaelbleigh, usually just plug in and start it up
[04:59] <chol> michaelbleigh, it's not windows, most of the kernel modules (drivers) are already there so most of the devices should work right away
[04:59] <fusionxn1> yes 1 sec
[04:59] <jesspher> thanks
[04:59] <nomasteryoda|w> is it a Texas instruments based chipset michaelbleigh
[04:59] <jesspher> fusionxnl, thanks

[05:03] <fusionxn1> goto the termanal window and type wine "LOCATION"
[05:03] <michaelbleigh> so should i just give up on ubuntu and move on to another distro?
[05:04] <jesspher> fusion, are you talking to me?
[05:04] <nomasteryoda|w> michaelbleigh, no
[05:04] <F1re4fect> Wine has a site on what works and doesn't, and if it works, how to make it work
[05:04] <chol> aliendream23, you look for the url lines in /etc/apt/sources.list that contain universe and make sure that there's no # infront of them
[05:04] <nomasteryoda|w> michaelbleigh, so it shows no nic at all with "lspci"?
[05:04] <s_spiff> do we have flash player on linux?
[05:04] <jesspher> can anybody here help me with installing games with wine

[05:05] <fusionxn1> is it on CD - ya?
[05:05] <jesspher> yes
[05:05] <TehUni> i installed ubuntu, then windows. My mbr now points to windows. If i reinstall ubuntu over the old one, will grub see the windows install and let me choose at boot time?
[05:05] <mnguyen_> Ubuntu is so easy... it's almost unfair
[05:05] <mnguyen_> TehUni: just re-install grub and you'll be okay
[05:05] <dr_willis> !fixgrub
[05:05] <ubotu> I know nothing about fixgrub - try searching http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi?db=ubuntu
[05:05] <fusionxn1> jesspher you need to type wine "locationhere"
[05:05] <mnguyen_> TehUni: don't re-install ubuntu
[05:05] <dr_willis> ~grub
[05:05] <fusionxn1> with the quotes
[05:05] <dr_willis> Hmm
[05:05] <chol> michaelbleigh, you to need to start prefixing peoples nick when you spek, can't keep all questions apart otherwise
[05:05] <[Ex0r] > holy hell... about 5 hours worth of activity just suddenly appeared on my screen

[05:06] <jesspher> fusion, is it "wine location here"
[05:06] <TehUni> mnguyen: how do i fix grub? i can't get into my ubuntu install?

[05:06] <chol> michaelbleigh, :)
[05:06] <mnguyen_> freakin just switched from ubuntu from gentoo... ubuntu is ridiculous... i almost feel dumb using it
[05:06] <[Ex0r] > Now, to ask my question
[05:06] <inrelief> anybody else have troubles w/rhythmbox freezing into an uninterruptiable state?
[05:06] <[Ex0r] > if I install ubuntu in a machine than remove the hdd and install it in another machine, will I have to re-install ubuntu ?
[05:06] <chol> michaelbleigh, but do some googling for nforce and linux to see if someone has written something about it_
[05:06] <aliendream23> ok, now my floppy wont open
[05:06] <dr_willis> [Ex0r] ,  ive done that befor.
[05:07] <fusionxn1> wine "location here"
[05:07] <jesspher> ok
[05:07] <CrazyMonkey> I imported round 160g of data from my old Windows drive and i need a command to do a recursive rm of all the Thumbs.db files... Any idea?
[05:07] <[Ex0r] > dr_willis- I am going to install ubuntu in a machine tonight, but the hdd is going in another machine tomorrow and I don't want to have to install it all twice.
[05:07] <Balian> Allo, Bit of a problem. I just installed ubuntu and tried installing KDE from the package program. I got it up and running but for some reason it killed my internet connection. So I reinstalled ubuntu and formatted the HD. Net works fine now. Any idea what happened?
[05:07] <[Ex0r] > CrazyMonkey- sudo rm -rf Thumbs.db
[05:07] <jesspher> fusion, can i use my dvd drive
[05:08] <PORDO> my room mate just tried to tell me that there's a difference between audio and data burnable cd's.
[05:08] <PORDO> hrm.
[05:08] <fusionxn1> what do you mean
[05:08] <PORDO> i didn't want to correct him.
[05:08] <[Ex0r] > PORDO- there is
[05:08] <TehUni> mnguyen or dr_willis: how do i fix grub? i can't get into my ubuntu install?
[05:08] <jesspher> use my dvd drive to install the game
[05:08] <PORDO> lol.
[05:08] <michaelbleigh> wish i had a spare nic card lying around to throw in it
[05:08] <dr_willis> comercial audio cds are normally 'pressed'
[05:08] <chol> CrazyMonkey, find /path/to/pics -name Thumbs.db -exec rm {} \;
[05:08] <CrazyMonkey> Ex0r- thanks alot
[05:08] <PORDO> dr_willis i said "burnable"
[05:08] <dr_willis> TehUni,  theres a wiki page on it.
[05:08] <fusionxn1> not sure i tried to install photoshop and i got an error saying EXE is incorrect or invalid
[05:08] <fusionxn1> I guess so
[05:08] <PORDO> [Ex0r]  i have NEVER seen a burnable cd that couldn't be used for either.
[05:08] <fusionxn1> BRB
[05:08] <deltaremc> Good evening. Can anyone tell me how to calibrate a tablet PC pen on ubuntu 6?
[05:09] <dr_willis> PORDO,  ones audio ones data.. thats different. :)
[05:09] <jesspher> now it says wine: could not load L"c:\\windows\\system32\\NBA2004_1.exe": Module not found
[05:09] <Nekow42> Hey, does the linux version of rar ever expire? I know unrar doesn't, but synaptic says in the description for the package "rar" that i have to register it after 40 days of use.
[05:09] <[Ex0r] > PORDO- Maybe he was refering to the on-disc type as opposed to the actual media ?
[05:09] <PORDO> dr_willis the cd is the same.  you just burn different data to it.
[05:09] <fusionxn1> jesspher im stumped then
[05:09] <dr_willis> PORDO,  you mean as in the actual physical media cd :P
[05:09] <PORDO> [Ex0r]  he was like, "i have some data cd's, but no audio cd's for you to use"
[05:09] <[Ex0r] > ah, lol
[05:09] <knapper_> Is there anyway to preload firefox on gnome startup? like load the process, but hidden..
[05:09] <jesspher> fusion, so if im trying to install a game i just type wine "location here"
[05:10] <dr_willis> They do sell 'audio cd-r's' that have some extra Tax on them.
[05:10] <jesspher> what would happen next
[05:10] <dr_willis> :)
[05:10] <Asc> PORDO: I think that deserves correction.
[05:10] <PORDO> knapper_ that's simple.
[05:10] <PORDO> Asc i'd feel bad.  i'm rooming with these non-tech-savvy hippies for the summer.
[05:10] <jesspher> can anybody help me with ejecting my optical drives cause they wont
[05:10] <[Ex0r] > PORDO- yes, they do create 'audio cd's' with special attributes to them
[05:10] <deltaremc> Good evening. Can anyone tell me how to calibrate a tablet PC pen on ubuntu?
[05:10] <fusionxn1> jesspher it should launch like an exe
[05:10] <[Ex0r] > jesspher- use the manual eject button
[05:11] <fusionxn1> How do i tell it to move a file to a folder in the termal in which the folder is permission denied
[05:11] <Asc> Well, hippies earns them some leniency.
[05:11] <jesspher> fusion, so it would continue on
[05:11] <fusionxn1> should do
[05:11] <lufis> Hi. What's the best audiohpile-approved CD burner?
[05:11] <seeker__> Sarra_: hey hey
[05:11] <Sarra_> hi seeker
[05:11] <[Ex0r] > So anyways, does anyone know if that works? (Installing ubuntu in system A, removing hdd, and installing hdd in system B)
[05:11] <mnguyen> Is there anyway to check to see if my opengl is working correctly (and that my nvidia drivers are setup correctly)?
[05:11] <jesspher> fusion, do you think windows media player 9 would work
[05:11] <michaelbleigh> so i assume that if lspci doesn't list the device, there's no simple way to fix the problem eh?
[05:11] <fusionxn1> i dont know check the appdb link i sent you
[05:12] <chol> [Ex0r] , basically, yes
[05:12] <fusionxn1> apparently IE 6 does (it sucks so :p)
[05:12] <jesspher> ok, thanks
[05:12] <jesspher> for the help fusion
[05:12] <jesspher> thanks so much
[05:12] <[Ex0r] > chol- I mean I know it'll run hardware configurator, but aside from that, it should just boot right up, unlike xp which gives you a hardware device failure ?
[05:12] <Sarra_> mnguyen, wouldn't that mess up the HAL?
[05:12] <fusionxn1> jesspher hope i could do more :)
[05:13] <hlabs> hey can some one please tell me how can i setup a webcam
[05:13] <deltaremc> Hi. Can somebody tell me how to calibrate a tablet PC pen on ubuntu 6.06?
[05:13] <jesspher> fusion, can you help me ejecting my optical drives cause manually doesn't do it
[05:13] <Asc> If I wanted to remove an installed kernel, should I just remove /lib/modules/[kernel version]  and /boot/[everything with [kernel version]  in the name] ?
[05:13] <chol> [Ex0r] , it shold work right away, perhaps some fiddling with nic modules
[05:13] <fusionxn1> Can someone tell me how i can move a file to /opt/azureus/ ?
[05:13] <jesspher> is there an automatic way
[05:13] <_vinboy> any good UML diagrammer?
[05:13] <Nekow42> what is that bot's name again....
[05:13] <fusionxn1> it says permission denied
[05:13] <Nekow42> !list
[05:13] <ubotu> I am ubotu, all-knowing infobot. You can browse my brain at http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl Usage info: http://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbotuUsage
[05:13] <[Ex0r] > chol-I am going to use the same NIC in both machines, just different mobo's/cpu's/etc
[05:14] <chol> [Ex0r] , heck, even my freebsd install worked when i swapped it from my 600mhz laptop to my new 2ghz one
[05:14] <Sarra_> fusionxn1: use a command line and sudo
[05:14] <fusionxn1> how do i move a file to /opt/azureus/ which command line
[05:14] <[Ex0r] > I am going to give it a try and hope it works
[05:14] <Sarra_> use the mv command
[05:14] <mnguyen> Sarra_: what do you mean? Why would nvidia drivers mess up with HAL?
[05:14] <chol> [Ex0r] , the kernel is build with generic x86 support so you should be fine
[05:14] <[Ex0r] > really don't want to copy over 50 gigs worth of data more than once
[05:15] <gamma> how do i go about stopping a module (nvidia) from automatically getting loading.. it thinks it's supported with my card, but isn't and hardlocks the system
[05:15] <dr_willis> thats what fileservers are for.
[05:15] <deltaremc> Hi. Can somebody tell me how to calibrate a tablet PC pen on ubuntu 6.06?
[05:15] <Sarra_> mnguyen: are you trying to move the hard drive from one PC to another identical PC, motherboard and videocard-wise?
[05:15] <mnguyen> Sarra_: I think you have me mixed up with somebody else
[05:15] <Sarra_> sorry then
[05:15] <Sarra_> :P
[05:16] <gould> [deltaremc]   Do you have you pen currently working?
[05:16] <[Ex0r] > Sarra_- that was me and no
[05:16] <[Ex0r] > different mobo, vid card, all that jazz
[05:16] <fusionxn1> What command line do i use to move a file to /opt/
[05:16] <deltaremc> Thanks. Yes, it's working.
[05:16] <verbose> fusionxn1: mv a\ file /opt
[05:16] <Sarra_> [Ex0r] : I'd assume that, as long as the chipset and video chipset are similar, it should work, but I wouldn't bet on it
[05:17] <verbose> fusionxn1: man mv
[05:17] <[Ex0r] > They are nowhere near similar. It's going from a 100mhz to a 920 mhz pc
[05:17] <gould> OK thanks I have been trying to get my toshiba working but have not had any luck yet
[05:17] <[Ex0r] > I could do it fine with fedora after it was re-installed in a new machine, it just needed to run the hardware check for configuring new hardware
[05:17] <nomasteryoda|w> michaelbleigh, sorry to have dropped off
[05:18] <aliendream23> ok, I have fwcutter
[05:18] <nomasteryoda|w> ya, it should be there somewhere
[05:18] <aliendream23> now what?
[05:18] <dr_willis> [Ex0r] ,  you are proberly better off just waiting and isntalling on the 900mhx box. a installin the 100.. will take an hr or 2 perhaps. :)
[05:18] <[Ex0r] > dr_willis- Not when you are installing bare minimal :)
[05:18] <deltaremc> The pointer moves with the pen but it's not on the same place on the screen
[05:18] <nomasteryoda|w> ok aliendream23 now you need the actual bcmwl5.sys or some such driver file to cut
[05:18] <[Ex0r] > It's for a server, no x or anything
[05:18] <nomasteryoda|w> download that from the mfg site
[05:18] <Sarra_> [Ex0r] : it may take that long just to get install to decide it wants to run. ;)
[05:19] <nomasteryoda|w> it will be a windows file
[05:19] <aliendream23> it is on the desktop
[05:19] <nomasteryoda|w> but you can extract it by using wine
[05:19] <nomasteryoda|w> oh, ok
[05:19] <[Ex0r] > had no problems with fedora, seems as if ubuntu being more advanced wouldn't either
[05:19] <SuperMiguel> there is any way to isntall direct x???
[05:19] <deeghetal> i can't figure out how to mount my floppy drive can someone help
[05:19] <aliendream23> :)
[05:19] <nomasteryoda|w> SuperMiguel, no
[05:19] <Sarra_> If you have time to kill, give it a shot, [Ex0r] . Otherwise, wait on it, especially if you have files you need to keep on that harddrive
[05:19] <rougeagle> I am unable to connect to a wpa network, can anybody provide some ideas?
[05:19] <nomasteryoda|w> MS would not like that
[05:19] <epidemik> how do you restart xserver?
[05:20] <epidemik> i always accedantly shut it down
[05:20] <[Ex0r] > ctrl+alt+backspace
[05:20] <nomasteryoda|w> Ctrl+Alt+Backspace
[05:20] <deltaremc> Can somebody tell me how to calibrate a tablet PC pen on ubuntu 6.06?
[05:20] <chol> rougeagle, install and configure wpasupplicant
[05:20] <nomasteryoda|w> =D
[05:20] <SuperMiguel> nomasteryoda |w how can i play games with wine that need direct x?
[05:20] <fusionxn1> verbose i took of the a\ and it worked thanks and put sudo in front :)
[05:20] <rougeagle> chol: how do I go about configuring wpasupplicant?
[05:20] <[Ex0r] > SuperMiguel- you don't. The beauty of wine :)
[05:20] <deeghetal> mount /mnt/floppy0 doesn't work
[05:20] <chol> rougeagle, you google ;)
[05:20] <fusionxn1> Who had the problem with azureus
[05:20] <aliendream23> how do I go about using fwcutter???
[05:20] <chol> rougeagle, nah, i can help you out
[05:20] <[Ex0r] > Wine is a very very poor solution to running games
[05:20] <nomasteryoda|w> SuperMiguel, wine will kinda do it, but its not the same
[05:20] <chol> rougeagle, is it installed?
[05:21] <rougeagle> chol: yes
[05:21] <verbose> fusionxn1: yeah, a\ file was kind of a joke...if your filename was "a file" without quotes that would be the command
[05:21] <fusionxn1> @ verbose i feel like a dumbass
[05:21] <chol> rougeagle, pm
[05:21] <nomasteryoda|w> sudo bcm43xx-fwcutter -w /lib/firmware/2.6.15-23-k7 /path/to/bcmwl5.sys
[05:21] <nomasteryoda|w> something like that
[05:21] <nomasteryoda|w> but different kernel
[05:22] <deltaremc> Hi. Can somebody tell me how to calibrate a tablet PC pen on ubuntu 6.06?
[05:22] <aliendream23> how do I get the kernel? (((VERY new to all this)))
[05:22] <fusionxn1> I need some help with azureus - i tell it to update and when i do i restart and it says it again
[05:22] <nomasteryoda|w> uname -a
[05:22] <deeghetal> i require assistance mounting a floppy disk so i can install my raid drivers.
[05:22] <Sarra_> Why not grab newer RAID drivers off the internet?
[05:23] <dr_willis> mount /media/floppy    perhaps. :)
[05:23] <chol> rougeagle, you with me?
[05:23] <deeghetal> dr_willis: /media/floppy could not be found
[05:23] <nomasteryoda|w> aliendream23, just replace that kernel number starting with 2.6 with what you have
[05:23] <[Ex0r] > you know I wonder if I install a hdd in ubuntu, and than get another one later on if I can setup a RAID system without having to re-format
[05:24] <dr_willis> deeghetal,  look in /media and see whats there.
[05:24] <deeghetal> ok
[05:24] <jesspher> hi
[05:24] <hlabs> any one know how to install xlite onto linux
[05:24] <jesspher> can anybody help me with installing deltaforce black hawk down using wine
[05:24] <jesspher> please help
[05:24] <deeghetal> oh wait i just did it
[05:24] <deeghetal> lol
[05:24] <deeghetal> thanks dr_willis
[05:25] <dr_willis> hlabs,  try the xlite homepage? never heard of it.
[05:25] <fusionxn1> If linux could run games (exes) i would make it my default os
[05:25] <dr_willis> jesspher,  pop in the cd.. use the command --->     wine /path/to/cd/install.exe
[05:25] <dr_willis> where path/to/cd is Proberly /media/cdrom/
[05:25] <jesspher> dr willis what do you mean by /to/
[05:26] <fusionxn1> jesspher
[05:26] <dr_willis> jesspher,  think about it.. you need to put the PATH to where the cd is at.
[05:26] <jesspher> hey fusionx
[05:26] <SuperMiguel> how can i change my screem resolution
[05:26] <dr_willis>  cd /media/cdrom for example.
[05:26] <aliendream23> sudo bcm43xx-fwcutter -w /lib/firmware/2.6.15-23-386/desktop/bcmwl5.sys     ?
[05:26] <fusionxn1> put wine "PATHHERE" where path here is the location path to the .exe
[05:26] <chol> [Ex0r] , no you can't, it's different partition types but if you set it up first, lvm or raid, you can
[05:26] <jesspher> dr willis, if it is on the desktop what to i type
[05:26] <nomasteryoda|w> aliendream23, try it
[05:26] <nomasteryoda|w> you should have a space
[05:26] <dr_willis> jesspher,  its an ICON thats just on the desktop. thats not the path to it.
[05:26] <aliendream23> there is a #1 after the kernel number do I need it?
[05:27] <fusionxn1> jesspher simple - put cd ~/Desktop then wine "EXENAME"
[05:27] <dr_willis> all the drivices show up in /media/ or should at least.

[05:30] <fusionxn1> jess IE 6 does
[05:30] <epidemik> is there a program i can use to overclock my processor or should i do it throughh the BIOS?
[05:30] <dr_willis> jesspher,  many of them work fine. sound slike your wine isntall is messed up
[05:30] <fusionxn1> s_spiff click flash_install (or installer) then click run in termanal
[05:30] <jesspher> what can i do
[05:31] <jesspher> please help me
[05:31] <dr_willis> epidemik,  overclocking can be a very bad idea.
[05:31] <jesspher> im new to linux
[05:31] <epidemik> dr_willis: why?
[05:31] <fusionxn1> then follow onscreen instructions
[05:31] <s_spiff> fusionxn1, ok..
[05:31] <epidemik> dr_willis: is it different in linux than it is in windows?
[05:31] <dr_willis> jesspher,  go to download.com and download some little windows app. and try wine whatever.exe   (try irfanview i know it works)
[05:31] <dr_willis> epidemik,  its not a good idea under windows either.
[05:31] <fusionxn1> let me know how u get on s_spiff
[05:31] <TooDamFast> "dumb. I am not sure how to set up perl CGI under apache2."   I thought I was a geek but I am no help,  perl cgi and pache2 go way over my head.
[05:31] <jesspher> ok
[05:31] <aliendream23> is that all I need to do???
[05:31] <nomasteryoda|w> ya
[05:31] <dr_willis> epidemik,  ive known of several instalnces where peoples Linux proglems have been due to overclocking.
[05:31] <Apostle^> what app can play midi files on linux?
[05:31] <NightwishFreak> overclocking is harmless if you have decent cooling and know what you are doing
[05:32] <fusionxn1> try utorrent standalone .exe?
[05:32] <nomasteryoda|w> aliendream23, also install the nm-applet
[05:32] <TooDamFast> jesspher dvd shrink does
[05:32] <nomasteryoda|w> i.e. gnome-network-manager it is i think called now
[05:32] <aliendream23> nm
[05:32] <nExkill> hi

[05:32] <epidemik> nightwishfreak, should i do it through bios or is there a program i can use?
[05:32] <LoneElf> np TooDamFast.
[05:32] <fusionxn1> s_spiff then you need the 64-bit version
[05:32] <fusionxn1> IF there is one
[05:32] <Apostle^> what app can play midi files on linux?
[05:32] <aliendream23> the networking manager?
[05:33] <s_spiff> fusionxn1, ok..looking for it
[05:33] <aliendream23> i think I might have that?
[05:33] <NightwishFreak> bios is the best, software overclocking can be a bit flakey
[05:33] <fusionxn1> ill help brb
[05:33] <dr_willis> Apostle^,  many of them.. check freshmeat.net - i think xmms can for a start.
[05:33] <epidemik> nightwishfreak, thanks
[05:33] <rougeagle> chol: do I need to use the same spacing you used for the file entry you sent me in the pm?
[05:33] <aliendream23> under system, administration
[05:33] <nomasteryoda|w> that one is different, but will work
[05:33] <Apostle^> dr_willis, xmms doesn't seem to work
[05:33] <TooDamFast> dvd shirnk is the only program i use with wine but im a linux noob.  this is only week 3 for me but life is good.
[05:33] <chol> rougeagle, no man, thats not important, it just makes the file easier to read
[05:33] <aliendream23> nope
[05:33] <jesspher> dr willis, it still says wine: could not load L"c:\\windows\\system32\\iview398.exe": Module not found
[05:33] <nomasteryoda|w> the one i mentioned is for the tray and will show nice wireless bars
[05:33] <epidemik> is there a program that i can use to benchmark my compie?
[05:33] <dr_willis> Apostle^,  try apt-cache search midi
[05:33] <aliendream23> still the same results
[05:34] <nomasteryoda|w> just sec
[05:34] <s_spiff> fusionxn1, is there a version for amd64? dont seem to find it
[05:34] <chol> jesspher, remove your ~/.wine directory and run the winesetupthingy again
[05:34] <Apostle^> dr_willis, nothing
[05:34] <fusionxn1> looking...
[05:34] <TooDamFast> 792 people in this channel.... it seems a little slow...
[05:34] <jesspher> how can i remove the wine directory
[05:35] <nomasteryoda|w> aliendream23, ah
[05:35] <TooDamFast> drag it to the trash?
[05:35] <chol> jesspher, use nautilus and press delete?
[05:35] <aliendream23> ??
[05:35] <nomasteryoda|w> sudo rmmod bcm43xx
[05:35] <nomasteryoda|w> sudo modprobe bcm43xx

[05:36] <s_spiff> fusionxn1, yweah
[05:36] <chol> guys and gals here, you all need to start highlite:ing the one you talk to, it's completely unreadable
[05:36] <nomasteryoda|w> jesspher, just do Alt+F2 type nautilus
[05:36] <nomasteryoda|w> yes
[05:36] <Asc> do the config, System.map, and vmlinuz links in /boot do anything important?
[05:36] <jesspher> now i see file browser
[05:36] <epidemik> is there a program that i can use to benchmark my compie?

[05:37] <chol> s_spiff, when you type my nick like you just did, your line stands out from the rest
[05:38] <dr_willis> LoneElf,  i imagine its mentioned in the wiki/forums and perhaps in the !lamp factoid
[05:38] <dr_willis> !lamp
[05:38] <ubotu> lamp is a shortcut for Linux-Apache-Mysql-{PHP,Perl,Python}. To setup a LAMP server on Ubuntu, install the packages libapache2-mod-php5, php5-mysql, and mysql-server-5.0. You can also choose 'install a LAMP server' from the server install cd boot menu. See also https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ApacheMySQLPHP

[05:44] <ubotu> To mount an .iso image: sudo mount -o loop my.iso /some/mountpoint - bin/cue can be converted to iso with bchunk  .iso images of Ubuntu CDs can be downloaded from http://releases.ubuntu.com Always verify the .iso before burning, see http://wiki.ubuntu.com/VerifyIsoHowto or http://www.linuxquestions.org/linux/answers/LQ_ISO/Checking_the_md5sum_in_Windows

[05:48] <rougeagle> chol: thankyou very much, very helpful information
[05:48] <billguedes> hi
[05:48] <fusionxn1> TooDamFast what about games
[05:48] <Nekow42> fusionxn1: seen cedega?
[05:48] <chol> s_spiff, so I guess you need to do some serious googling and stuff to see if you can get it to work and then come back to help others ;)
[05:48] <fusionxn1> Nekow42, ya and a lot of games got problems :(
[05:48] <Cyrus> I love warm fuzzies!
[05:49] <dr_willis> Games are for the Weak!
[05:49] <fusionxn1> LOL
[05:49] <billguedes> who can i make a icon theme for ubuntu:
[05:49] <dr_willis> There is a Native Linux port of Darwinia. :)
[05:49] <chol> rougeagle, hope you get it to work, it works fine with my linksys ap and almost fine at work with cisco, just some handover problems
[05:49] <Nekow42> No-one should need more than NETHACK
[05:49] <TooDamFast> i got ut2004 running today.  little stuttering but i have not yet patched it.  just happy to have an ok fps to play...
[05:49] <fusionxn1> I wish Prey and that would work on ubuntu and my tv tuner + x-fi and windows would be out the window
[05:49] <knapper_> Is there anyway to preload firefox on gnome startup? like load the process, but hidden..
[05:49] <Ithax> Anyone have any experience with dual-headed graphics cards in ubuntu?
[05:50] <Vratha> hi there!
[05:50] <Cyrus> Meow!
[05:50] <Vratha> any of you know what command-line command to run to execute the "Show Desktop Button"?
[05:50] <Vratha> i'm trying to setup a keyboard shortcut in metacity
[05:50] <TooDamFast> i was balls deep in hitman blood money when i wiped/installed linux.  I miss gaming...
[05:51] <fusionxn1> Does the G5 and G15 form logitech got drivers?
[05:51] <Ithax> I guess then, that no one has experience... alright then. I'll wing it.
[05:51] <Vratha> n/m i found it :)
[05:51] <holycow> !nvidia
[05:51] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BinaryDriverHowto
[05:51] <fusionxn1> TooDamFast i would go ubuntu if i could game
[05:51] <dr_willis> the G15 keyboard has some beta drivers out for the LCD. last i looked
[05:51] <fusionxn1> ill go check it out
[05:52] <billguedes> who can i make a icon theme for ubuntu:
[05:52] <Ithax> Before I forget, anyone know why the default fglrx drivers won't work for the x1000 series?
[05:52] <fusionxn1> can only see windows x(
[05:52] <TooDamFast> i see that halflife/counter strike can be played with ubuntu/cedega...   i think that will be my weekend project...
[05:52] <rougeagle> chol: I think my network manager just ruined my connection
[05:52] <bobovski> hi all
[05:52] <Ithax> Steam works yes.
[05:53] <chol> rougeagle, i don't use the gnome tools myself so i don't know about them.. sry
[05:53] <bobovski> any recommendations for a good cd ripper (rip to mp3 preferred). Or, how do I set up lame encoder for sound juicer?
[05:53] <knapper_> Is there anyway to preload firefox on gnome startup? like load the process, but hidden..
[05:53] <rougeagle> chol: kubuntu? or command line?
[05:53] <fusionxn1> DO you gotta pay for cedega?
[05:53] <TooDamFast> ut2004 is ok but i played it for about 1 year...  been playing cs for almost 6 years.
[05:53] <chol> rougeagle, but with wpa_cli you should be able to both scan and add networks
[05:54] <chol> rougeagle, command line, fluxbox
[05:54] <Nekow42> fusionxn1: Looks like Prey (demo, at least) works in Cedega
[05:54] <fusionxn1> sweet
[05:54] <TooDamFast> i see vrs of cedega on torrent sites...
[05:54] <holycow> !twinview

[05:54] <fusionxn1> TooDamFast ;)
[05:54] <TooDamFast> ;)
[05:54] <Nekow42> fusionxn1: It's technically GPL, so I don't think a torr*ent is piracy
[05:54] <chol> rougeagle, if you put update_config=1 above the network={ section
[05:54] <fusionxn1> Nekow42 - i thought that it costs money though
[05:54] <TooDamFast> how do i browse irc channels with Gaim??
[05:55] <chol> rougeagle, then wpa_gui will modify the file for you when you scanned and double clicked the network you wanyt
[05:55] <Nekow42> fusionxn1: They charge for a support contract, and only give you the CVS code otherwise
[05:55] <weex> TooDamFast: i'd use xchat, though from gaim you can get a channel list from the menus
[05:55] <fusionxn1> Oh, ill give it a bash then
[05:55] <Nekow42> fusionxn1: GPL says nothing about making binaries easy to obtain
[05:55] <bobovski> kaudiocreator isn't recognizing one of my cd drives...how can I fix that?
[05:55] <rougeagle> chol:I don't seem to have the wpa_gui package installed, does it have a different name to call it from the commandline
[05:55] <Senesence> Is there a Linux terminal alternative to the "nslookup" windows xp command line utility?
[05:55] <drt> sup im trying to get wifi in ubuntu with a bcm4318 chip.. all the methods ive found online have not worked
[05:55] <Nekow42> fusionxn1: So, just search BT for a binary
[05:55] <TooDamFast> 800 people in the channel.  6 that speek...
[05:56] <chol> rougeagle, could be another package, i'll check
[05:56] <weex> Senesence: dig is supposed to be the official replacement
[05:56] <fusionxn1> Nekow42 you mean  CEDEGA
[05:56] <Nekow42> TooDamFast: Welcome to the land of the idle....
[05:56] <TooDamFast> ....
[05:56] <billguedes> who can i make a icon theme for ubuntu:
[05:56] <Senesence> weex: how do I use dig?
[05:56] <chol> !info wpagui > rougeagle
[05:56] <ubotu> wpagui: GUI for wpa_supplicant. In repository universe, is optional. Version 0.4.8-3ubuntu1.1 (dapper), package size 78 kB, installed size 204 kB
[05:56] <inrelief> i ain't idle.  really!
[05:56] <Nekow42> fusionxn1: yes, like I said, being GPL, i wouldn't call it piracy
[05:56] <drt> so has anyone gotten wifi in ubuntu working with the 4318 broadcom chip
[05:56] <TooDamFast> if i could browse other channels with gaim..  i would be idle too...
[05:56] <fusionxn1> Right on!
[05:56] <chol> rougeagle, install that package
[05:56] <weex> Senesence: hell if i know...i just know that nslookup tells me it's deprecated and that i should use dig
[05:57] <fusionxn1> Linux.Ubuntu FTW
[05:57] <Nekow42> TooDamFast: Ever played IdleRPG?
[05:57] <TooDamFast> lol.  no.
[05:57] <inrelief> cedega isn't GPL.
[05:57] <TooDamFast> sounds fun
[05:57] <fusionxn1> inrelief we know :)
[05:57] <inrelief> ah
[05:57] <inrelief> jumped in late
[05:57] <flodine> anyone able to update kernel to 2.6 17?
[05:57] <inrelief> haha
[05:57] <TooDamFast> cedega $$  monthly..
[05:57] <inrelief> fuggit
[05:57] <inrelief> yeh
[05:57] <Nekow42> inrelief: Everything but their Directx code is
[05:57] <chol> weex, use host, it's as simple as nslookup
[05:57] <fusionxn1> TooDamFast for most people
[05:57] <Nekow42> inrelief: You can get the whole caboodle in source off their CVS
[05:58] <dr_willis> i hear the wine support of DirectX is getting very good also.
[05:58] <weex> ok Senesence use host it's as simple as nslookup
[05:58] <Nekow42> dr_willis: I was almost able to play GTA-VC in plain wine...
[05:58] <bobovski> ok, that's definitely a problem. I think /dev/cdrom is pointed towards the wrong device...
[05:58] <fusionxn1> Well its 5am here lol im going 10 mins. I may wak linux on just my tv tuner / x-fi and games wont work
[05:58] <TooDamFast> how bout in wine?
[05:58] <skeeziks> Is anyone aware of a good Kopete 0.12.1 .deb for Kubuntu?
[05:58] <TooDamFast> cedega?
[05:58] <dr_willis> Nekow42,  heh - it ran at 2x speed when i tried it in cedega.
[05:58] <TooDamFast> sorry.
[05:58] <dr_willis> Nekow42,  now  that made it much harder.
[05:59] <billguedes> who can i make a icon theme for ubuntu:
[05:59] <inrelief> Nekow42, yeah, I remember when gentoo took the cvs out of portage, b/c it was just-too-easy to compile, thus defeating transgaming's liscense
[05:59] <fusionxn1> chol is a mad man
[05:59] <rougeagle> chol: I got the connection back, but it keeps dropping periodically, is this known to be a problem of on computer software configurations?
[05:59] <dr_willis> billguedes,  theres oooodles of then you can download for gnome and kde.
[05:59] <Nekow42> dr_willis: Ran fine both ways here... wine had some lighting issues and didn't hook the mouse properly....
[05:59] <chol> rougeagle, what access point?
[05:59] <chol> rougeagle, the cisco one at work has exactly the same problem
[05:59] <chol> ones*
[05:59] <fusionxn1> Didnt microsoft get forced to release its code?
[05:59] <TooDamFast> still cant get my m$ explorer 7 button mouse to work right...
[06:00] <rougeagle> chol: a belkin54g routher
[06:00] <TooDamFast> thumb buttons are a pain in the arse...
[06:00] <dr_willis> I cant ever rember to use the extra buttons. :)
[06:00] <rougeagle> b/g I mean
[06:00] <chol> rougeagle, hm, dunno any specifics about that one but wpa support is quite new
[06:00] <billguedes> dr_willis, i would make a new icon theme.
[06:00] <weex> can we all agree that 2 buttons and a wheel are all we need?
[06:00] <dr_willis> billguedes,  so.... go make one then? :)
[06:00] <fusionxn1> I'm running ubuntu in vmware right now. How fast is vmware on ubuntu? I wanan use photoshop cs 2 on it
[06:00] <Nekow42> weex: If I was a Mac nut, I'd say that was too many
[06:00] <dr_willis> weex,  i can rember when we dident need no wheel!
[06:01] <Nekow42> I don't have a wheel
[06:01] <rougeagle> chol: the router is 2 years old, so it is probably likely that it is a router support problem then huh?
[06:01] <weex> that wheel is super sexy
[06:01] <chol> rougeagle, there's lots of google hits on "belkin54g wpa linux"
[06:01] <Nekow42> Trackball here, so no wheel
[06:01] <weex> quel dommage
[06:01] <fusionxn1> Anyone using VMWARE on ubuntu?
[06:02] <chol> rougeagle, but belking54g can't be the product/model?
[06:02] <billguedes> dr_willis, because my client would like a ubuntu customized.
[06:02] <weex> what do people use to watch divx or xvid?
[06:02] <TooDamFast> fusionxn1  just format and install ubuntu...
[06:02] <rougeagle> chol: no, but it is a general description of it
[06:02] <fusionxn1> TooDamFast - heh, i would but a lot of things dont work
[06:02] <Klowner> weex: vlc, mplayer, or sometimes totem
[06:02] <Senesence> Resizing my windows on the desktop is very choppy, how do I fix this?
[06:03] <TooDamFast> if they dont work... you dont need them.
[06:03] <chol> rougeagle, try adding fast_reauth before the network={ stanza
[06:03] <chol> rougeagle, fast_reauth=1
[06:03] <weex> Klowner: sounds like fun...guess i'll give the trio a shot
[06:03] <fusionxn1> TooDamFast My sound card, TV Tuner, Photoshop
[06:03] <jesspher> does anybody here think that asus n6600 graphics card is good
[06:03] <fusionxn1> Whens ubuntu 6.1 due?
[06:03] <rougeagle> chol: what will that do?
[06:03] <TooDamFast> sound is over rated....  (no one has told me how to add stations to rhythmbox...)
[06:03] <jesspher> does anybody here know why firefox downloads the old version of flash?
[06:04] <Klowner> jesspher: old being version 7?
[06:04] <rougeagle> chol: oh yeah, because the key gets reissued w/ tkip right?
[06:04] <fusionxn1> jess only 7.0 is for linux right now
[06:04] <billguedes> dr_willis, are you know make a icon theme:
[06:04] <fusionxn1> 9.0 is coming 2007
[06:04] <jesspher> yes
[06:04] <chol> rougeagle, yes, I believe so
[06:04] <Senesence> Is anyone experiencing slow performance, when resizing windows?
[06:04] <fusionxn1> That answer you? :)
[06:04] <jesspher> cause flah is now on version 9
[06:04] <fusionxn1> Ya for windows
[06:04] <Klowner> Senesence: disable opaque window resizing maybe?
[06:05] <Nekow42> 9.0 is coming early 2007, with a preview release expected in oct 06
[06:05] <fusionxn1> Linux = 2007 beta end of year
[06:05] <chol> rougeagle, there is this thing ap_scan=2 also, don't remember exacly what it does though..
[06:05] <fusionxn1> nek, too right
[06:05] <ubuntu> Hey
[06:05] <chol> rougeagle, read about it and it sounded right to have it in the config
[06:05] <Senesence> Klowner: how, link to instructions if you know plz.
[06:05] <ubuntu> i got a bit of a prob here
[06:05] <jesspher> do you guys know how to install the latest version of flash on ubuntu?
[06:05] <ubuntu> something wrong with my pc
[06:05] <ubuntu> please
[06:05] <crimsun> chol: means 'search' for 'hidden ssids'
[06:05] <fusionxn1> So does people here think Ubuntu is the best linux ?
[06:05] <holycow> there is no such thing
[06:05] <dr_willis> fusionxn1,  i would guess yes. :P for their needs
[06:06] <fusionxn1> jess i dont tihnk you can it doesnt have 9.0 yet
[06:06] <ubuntu> I get a blue screen of death
[06:06] <jesspher> does ubuntu have a checkdisk
[06:06] <chol> crimsun, thanks :)
[06:06] <Klowner> Senesence: aah, I don't have Gnome in front of me, I'll look
[06:06] <ubuntu> :(
[06:06] <Nekow42> ubuntu: In IRC, never ask to ask, just ask
[06:06] <holycow> it is basically debian with lots of elbow grease thanks to some generous funding
[06:06] <fusionxn1> dr_ does it do everything linux has to offer?
[06:06] <Dev05> ubuntu, What is it?
[06:06] <holycow> nothing special, just damn fun
[06:06] <ubuntu> i get a blue screen of death
[06:06] <holycow> fusionxn1, linux is just a kernel
[06:06] <chol> rougeagle, there you have it, if you have hidden ssid it's a good idea to have it there
[06:06] <ubuntu> error code 0x000000ed
[06:06] <holycow> fusionxn1, all the tools available here are available on ALL distros
